Soseki (センゴク Sengoku?) is character in Harvest Moon 3DS: A New Beginning. He is one of the eligible bachelors to court.

Soseki was a reporter, but after an accident at his last job he quit. He now lives in town to live a peaceful life. He is constantly worried about his health and comes across as a hypochondriac. Although still young, he still refers to himself as an old man and may need some convincing if you want to date him.

Full transcription below:

Soseski: Oh, a ring. A ring? A ring?! Are you serious, PLAYER?! Alright. Okay. For now, let's go somewhere else to talk about this.

Soseki: Whoa, you really surprised me! My legs almost gave out from the shock. I mean, I'm a bit old for you, aren't I? We have a pretty big age difference between us. That's a fact, PLAYER. Sure you don't want to date someone younger? That said, given you're both innocent and stubborn, you won't be giving up, now will you? Just to be sure, let me ask one more time. PLAYER, do you really want to go out with me?

Player: (shows the ring again)

Soseki: I see... Well, if you're that serious about it, I'm game too. From today on we're a couple.

Player: (gives ring)

Soseki: Now that we're officially sweethearts, why don't what we call each other? Should make things more exciting. What would you like me to call you? Give it some thought.

  • Keep name
  • Change it

Soseki: (Change it) NAME it is then. Hmm...that's a pretty good name. Oh? You don't want me to add "honey" at the end anymore? But...I've been adding "honey" now and again for a while. I feel like it fits you now. And after all, it does sound pretty cute! I'll keep using it sometimes, okay? This is the start of a fresh stage for us. Let's give it our best. Oops, I forgot about some minor business I have to take care of. I'll be one my way then. See you soon, NAME.

Soseki: Hi there, PLAYER. Thanks for coming. I've been waiting for you.

Player: "?"

Soseki: PLAYER, I've actually got something to talk with you about. Mind if we have a change of scenery? Follow me.

Soseki: So, PLAYER. Even though I come off the way I do, I'm actually an experienced adult, you know. That's to say, whenever you're in a pinch, I want you to be able to rely on me. I'd like to support you. The gist of what I'm getting at here is how do you feel about going out with me?

Player: "!"

Soseki: Don't think about it too deeply. I mean, just consider giving me a shot. What do ya say?

Player: (hands over ring, both get hearts above their heads)

Soseki: Since we're a proper couple now, maybe it would make things more exciting if we change what we call each other. What would you like me to call you? Give it some thought.

  • Keep it
  • Change it

Soseki: NAME it is then. Hmm...that's a pretty good name. Oh? You don't want me to add "honey" at the end anymore? But...I've been adding "honey" now and again for a while. I feel like it fits you now. And after all, it does sound pretty cute! I'll keep using it sometimes, okay? This is the start of a fresh stage for us. Let's give it our best. Oops, I forgot about some minor business I have to take care of. I'll be one my way then. See you soon, NAME.

  • If you say "Turn him down" :

Soseki: Ugh, I see. Actually, I thought you might say that. Sorry, PLAYER. How about we forget the whole thing? Well, I'll be on my way then. Catch you later.

Player: (nods)

Soseki: Let's go right away, then. Come on.

Scene changes to forest

Soseki: Let me explain. There have been sightings of a peacock in the area. It's a rare bird for this region so its kinda lit a fire under my journalists' soul. I thought I'd let you come along and help me get the scoop on it! What do you think?

Player: (shakes head)

Soseki: Great, thank you. It's just a bit up ahead so let's go.

Player: (nods)

Soseki: "..." It's meant to be right around here somewhere...

Player: "!"

Soseki: What's up, [Player]? What? The time? "..." Ah, I'm sorry. You really are busy, aren't you! I'll finish the story by myself, so you can go on back.

Player: (nods and walks away)

Soseki: "..." It can't be helped if you don't have the time. I'd love to have been with you for a little while longer, but that's selfish. Right, need to get back to breaking the big story.

Soseki: What? You came along because you thought this was an actual date? You took that seriously?

Player: (squiggles above head and walks away)

Soseki: (sweats) Sorry. I think I've upset you! I guess I don't understand you as well as I thought I did, [Player].

"I have a bad feeling about this":

Player: shakes head
