By the way, how do you get strikethroughs? I know you can only use it in the forums, but there's nothing in the markup help about what syntax you have to use to get it. Yeah, I'm pretty new to these forums, if you can't tell already.

Time Travelers?
Espers?
#IceBearForPresidentThis Night?
We have a winner!
In case you were wondering, the hint, "I like Rain after sunset." referred to two things. First, the eagle-eyed may have noticed that "Rain" was capitalized. This was intentional. The rodent thing that features heavily in the ED was named Rain, so it was used as a proper noun in this case. The second hint is that "after sunset" = night, referring to the title of the song, ''This Night.''
Summary, including answers to the questions that were left unanswered during the actual round:
