<!-- IMO, this should be something more... visible? than "adachi's part is plain text and yu's part has quotes around it" but i just used the quotes around the text for now cause that's how the official booklet had it. the book did not have italics on hirata's adachi narration, but i think it'd be kinda crazy to not have something to separate her vocals. -->
