Kurokichi is reading 'Bonobono' -- a magazine aimed at very young children -- to his (thankfully still alive and uneaten) little brother.

The headline on Hiei's newspaper is Piyopiyo Prices Up -- Piyopiyo Cookies are shortbread in the shape of a chick (cheep cheep cookies) like the ones Kurama feeds Hiei in 'The Jagan-Master's Boredom.'
