[00:02] ---
Um...
[00:04] ---
Can I ask you one thing?
[00:08] ---
Good morning!
[00:10] ---
Oh, Maika, I was just interviewing—
[00:13] ---
We're getting a new member, right?
[00:16] ---
Nice to meet you! I'm Hideri Kanzaki!
[00:20] ---
I'm a spunky high school student!
[00:21] ---
I look forward to working with you!
[01:55] ---
AN IDOL CHARACTER, TOO
[02:03] ---
You're as cute as a doll!
[02:06] ---
Manager, is our new co-worker
starting today?
[02:09] ---
No, I haven't made up my mind yet.
[02:15] ---
Please don't cry!
[02:17] ---
Hey, what's all the commotion back here—
[02:25] ---
Hello? Is this the police?
[02:27] ---
Why are you always so quick
to call the police?
[02:31] ---
Well, I kind of get it, but not really.
[02:35] ---
We could have a cute new member
otakus would love.
[02:38] ---
We've been busy lately
[02:41] ---
and shorthanded.
So why not hire on the spot?
[02:45] ---
Is there a problem?
[02:47] ---
There might be a slight overlap
with Mafuyu's character.
[02:51] ---
Oh yeah, it might be a little similar
to Hoshikawa's lolita character type.
[02:55] ---
Well, I classify Mafuyu
as more "lolita-granny"—
[02:59] ---
STAB
[02:59] ---
Stab!
[03:04] ---
Good morning.
[03:05] ---
H-Hole!
[03:08] ---
Good...
[03:09] ---
morning.
[03:13] ---
Is this the newbie?
[03:14] ---
Yep! Adorable, right?
[03:17] ---
Manager, give the thumbs-up already!
[03:19] ---
I think we've got a rare find here!
[03:22] ---
Add another person to make
the work load easier on me.
[03:27] ---
All right.
[03:29] ---
If you all insist, then I will.
[03:33] ---
Really? I get to wear the café's uniform
even though I'm a boy?
[03:36] ---
A boy?
[03:36] ---
A BOY!?
[03:39] ---
A girl who talks like a boy!
That's craftily adorbs!
[03:42] ---
Whoa, so she already comes
with her own character.
[03:46] ---
Say, where's my uniform?
[03:50] ---
Oh, for today, you can wear
our spare shirt and pants.
[03:55] ---
This is so sudden
that I don't have an extra uniform yet!
[03:58] ---
Um, if you don't mind,
you could wear my spare uniform.
[04:03] ---
Thank you!
[04:05] ---
Can you tell me your sizes?
[04:07] ---
I'll order a uniform for you.
[04:11] ---
From the top, 73, 56...
[04:16] ---
Just small, medium or large, please.
[04:21] ---
How do I look?
[04:25] ---
It looks good on you! Very cute!
[04:27] ---
Maybe a little big.
[04:29] ---
I actually like that!
[04:35] ---
All right, everyone else suit up
and get ready to open!
[04:39] ---
Okay.
[04:45] ---
Welcome!
[04:47] ---
A new girl?
[04:49] ---
Thank you for coming to see me today!
[04:56] ---
Everyone!
[04:57] ---
Be sure to take a selfie with me on
your way out!
[05:03] ---
So she's an idol character.
[05:05] ---
Wow!
[05:07] ---
Maika, Maika!
[05:09] ---
Could you help me for a minute?
[05:11] ---
Sure. Is there something
you're not sure about?
[05:17] ---
Ta-da! Twin idols!
[05:23] ---
Twin idols...
[05:25] ---
Maika, please do your sadist character!
[05:33] ---
The newbie is pretty popular.
[05:36] ---
Yeah.
[05:38] ---
That's a lukewarm response.
[05:40] ---
Strange, when we've got
a good new worker.
[05:43] ---
Well, the thing is...
[05:48] ---
- What's wrong?
- Are you okay?
[05:51] ---
I-I saw it.
[05:54] ---
An evil black lifeform...
[05:58] ---
R-Roach!
[06:02] ---
Oh, just a cockroach?
[06:04] ---
You startled us with that scream.
[06:07] ---
What is it?
[06:08] ---
Well, after all...
[06:11] ---
It's heading towards Hideri!
[06:12] ---
The black lifeform!
[06:16] ---
SLAM
[06:18] ---
Hand...
[06:19] ---
With her hand...
[06:25] ---
Without any hesitation!
[06:27] ---
Amazing!
[06:29] ---
Hideri, that was manly of you.
[06:32] ---
I-I was so scared!
[06:35] ---
Don't come near me with that hand!
[06:37] ---
FWOOSH
[06:38] ---
Filth has to be sterilized!
[06:43] ---
Never mind "manly."
[06:46] ---
Your new co-worker is a man.
[06:51] ---
A so-called "femboy"!
We really did get a great find this time!
[06:55] ---
Well, that's fine,
[06:58] ---
but you should write "male"
on your resume.
[07:01] ---
What? I can't put "girl"?
[07:04] ---
No.
[07:05] ---
Come to think of it,
why did you apply here?
[07:10] ---
My dream is to become a cute idol!
[07:14] ---
I think that's why God made me so cute!
[07:19] ---
He's calling himself "cute."
[07:21] ---
But my parents don't understand,
[07:24] ---
so I want to show them
just how talented I am as an idol
[07:27] ---
by first gaining fans here!
[07:32] ---
Otherwise...
[07:34] ---
I'll have to inherit the family farm!
[07:38] ---
I hate being surrounded by bugs!
[07:40] ---
And pigs! I want moe pigs!
[07:44] ---
I want to get people's attention!
[07:53] ---
You're the manager here? Wow!
[07:56] ---
Then can we go in next time?
[08:00] ---
By all means! If you come in,
delicious sweets will be on the house.
[08:05] ---
Yay! Awesome!
[08:08] ---
It's okay to bring a lot of your friends
from school, too.
[08:12] ---
Then should we barge in with everyone?
[08:14] ---
Yeah!
[08:15] ---
Then we'll see you soon, Manager!
[08:17] ---
PLEASE WAIT FOR ME
[08:18] ---
Bye-bye!
[08:20] ---
I'll be waiting!
[08:24] ---
A-Akizuki! What was that for?
[08:27] ---
Hitting on high school girls
in broad daylight?
[08:30] ---
No! Just trying to bring in
more customers!
[08:33] ---
If Maika saw that,
she'd get the wrong idea.
[08:37] ---
If Maika saw that,
she wouldn't think anything of it!
[08:41] ---
That's because you suck badly at courtship
and haven't made any progress.
[08:45] ---
That hurts, Akizuki.
[08:50] ---
Kanzaki?
[08:51] ---
You were there?
[08:53] ---
So that's what the manager's like!
[08:55] ---
CHUCKLE...
[08:56] ---
Hey, don't gesture like that.
[08:58] ---
This is like Miu #2.
[09:02] ---
All right!
[09:03] ---
If you suck at it, Manager,
I've got various lectures for you!
[09:07] ---
Really?
[09:08] ---
However, you have to say I'm cute!
[09:13] ---
If the cost of advice
is calling him "cute," that's cheap.
[09:17] ---
Besides, you're always
calling this and that "cute."
[09:19] ---
Cu...
[09:20] ---
"Cu..."?
[09:23] ---
You're cute.
[09:26] ---
Is it that distasteful to you?
[09:28] ---
That's his problem. But all right, fine!
[09:32] ---
First, compliment her!
[09:34] ---
Whether you say she's cute or whatever,
girls are pleased to be praised!
[09:38] ---
Me, too! I like people who compliment
the selfies I put up on my SNS!
[09:46] ---
What do you think?
[09:51] ---
You sure have a lot of photos on here.
[09:53] ---
Why are they all with sad eyebrows,
a duck face and thigh-high socks?
[09:59] ---
Shut up. Ask me that again,
and I'll clock you.
[10:04] ---
Welcome!
[10:07] ---
Um, table for two.
[10:07] ---
First, compliment her!
[10:08] ---
First, compliment her!
[10:10] ---
You're here again?
[10:12] ---
Please sit where you want, but at a table
where you won't be in the way.
[10:15] ---
- Right!
- Right!
[10:15] ---
Go on, compliment her! Compliment her!
[10:17] ---
Shoo, shoo!
[10:20] ---
Maika...
[10:21] ---
Yes?
[10:22] ---
Maika, you're so kind and wonderful.
[10:25] ---
GONG
[10:28] ---
Wasn't I being sadistic?
[10:31] ---
No, that's not what I meant!
[10:33] ---
I guess I'm not cut out
for customer service.
[10:37] ---
No!
[10:39] ---
Maika, you're taking it the wrong way!
[10:46] ---
You're useless when it comes to saying
something in words, Manager.
[10:49] ---
Yep.
[10:50] ---
Then gain points by your actions!
[10:52] ---
Actions?
[10:53] ---
Yeah. For example...
[10:55] ---
I'm going back to work.
[11:00] ---
Help her out like this.
[11:06] ---
You tripped me.
[11:09] ---
It was a performance
to give the manager guidance.
[11:12] ---
I think I can do that!
I'm gonna help Maika now!
[11:17] ---
I'll take your order.
[11:19] ---
But try not to spit as you give it.
[11:21] ---
SHIVER SHIVER
[11:23] ---
Come on, make it snappy!
[11:26] ---
M-Manager?
[11:29] ---
We're not serving you any food!
[11:31] ---
Wha... Whaaat?
[11:34] ---
What were you thinking?
[11:36] ---
Helping someone doesn't mean
interfering with their work!
[11:39] ---
Right.
[11:40] ---
This time, we made it look like it was
a "surprise sadist act" from the manager.
[11:45] ---
Jeez.
[11:46] ---
What are you doing,
you lousy piece of poop?
[11:50] ---
Poop? Now I'm poop?
[11:53] ---
Hey, don't say "poop" in the kitchen!
[11:55] ---
All right, this is rather obvious,
but let's move on to presents!
[11:59] ---
Presents?
[12:01] ---
Yes. Let's see, to practice,
[12:04] ---
treat me to an expensive dessert buffet.
[12:07] ---
- Forget it.
- Humph.
[12:08] ---
HUMPH
[12:08] ---
But giving her a present is a good idea.
[12:13] ---
I'm not quite the same person
I was before!
[12:20] ---
They're so cute!
[12:25] ---
I'm taking a break!
[12:27] ---
Okay.
[12:33] ---
Maika!
[12:35] ---
As an employee here, please partake!
[12:38] ---
Th-This much goes above and beyond
my status as an employee!
[12:42] ---
I can't partake!
[12:44] ---
What? Uh...
[12:45] ---
Th-Then...
[12:46] ---
Is there anything else you would like?
[12:48] ---
Please just name it!
[12:52] ---
I don't need to take a break!
[12:55] ---
Maika!
[13:01] ---
What's the sigh about?
[13:04] ---
Did something happen?
[13:06] ---
Actually, during my break,
[13:09] ---
the manager had a luxurious spread
out in the back room.
[13:14] ---
I've heard of something like that before.
[13:17] ---
When a parent
is going to abandon their child,
[13:19] ---
they suddenly treat them to something,
since it's going to be the last time.
[13:23] ---
Am I going to be let go?
[13:26] ---
I don't think so.
[13:28] ---
That's not going to happen.
[13:30] ---
That could've been my last supper!
[13:33] ---
No!
[13:35] ---
It didn't mean that, Maika!
[13:37] ---
Manager...
[13:38] ---
I'm not going to let you go!
[13:40] ---
Please stay here forever!
[13:43] ---
What I wanted to tell you today is...
[13:47] ---
What I wanted to tell you,
Maika, is that I l...
[13:52] ---
- "L..."?
- "L..."?
[13:54] ---
I like you a lot!
[13:59] ---
R-Really?
[14:01] ---
I like you a lot, too, Manager!
[14:05] ---
- Slip!
- Slip!
[14:07] ---
Really?
[14:08] ---
Yes! Very much!
[14:12] ---
What is this?
[14:29] ---
I stocked up on writing paper,
[14:32] ---
so I don't have to go outside
until the next event.
[14:37] ---
Hideri?
[14:40] ---
Yoo-hoo!
[14:43] ---
Huh?
[14:46] ---
Hi-de-ri!
[14:53] ---
I was so engrossed in my phone
that I didn't notice you!
[14:56] ---
It's dangerous to fiddle
with your phone while walking.
[14:59] ---
Sorry.
[15:01] ---
By the way, I see that you normally
wear glasses, Miu.
[15:04] ---
I wear contacts at work,
but otherwise I go with glasses.
[15:08] ---
Wh-What is that, like an idol thing?
I won't stand for that!
[15:13] ---
Idol thing?
[15:16] ---
Jeez...
[15:17] ---
I guess I always have to be on guard!
[15:19] ---
So you're shopping incognito today?
[15:23] ---
Well, I wouldn't say "incognito."
[15:27] ---
Are you out shopping, too, Hideri?
[15:30] ---
I've been searching high and low
for a new outfit,
[15:34] ---
but I haven't found anything good!
[15:37] ---
How can I put it?
[15:39] ---
There just aren't any clothes
that can match my charm!
[15:43] ---
DRAG DRAG
[15:43] ---
Then I'll help you look.
[15:47] ---
I make clothes shine!
[15:50] ---
People should see me as a whole kit
together with my clothes!
[15:57] ---
What kind would be good?
[16:02] ---
What kind are you looking for?
[16:04] ---
The first condition is that it has to be cute,
[16:07] ---
and I also want it to make an impact!
[16:09] ---
How about aiming for the gap?
[16:12] ---
Aim for the adorbs gap! I like it!
[16:17] ---
I LIKE SUSHI
[16:21] ---
Oh, that's cute.
[16:23] ---
I'm not interested in "jokey cute."
[16:26] ---
Sorry, sorry. Is there an outfit
you'd like to try on, Hideri?
[16:31] ---
An outfit that takes advantage
of my potential!
[16:35] ---
What do you think
about the gothic lolita look?
[16:38] ---
Cute! Cute!
[16:40] ---
Of course! Because I'm wearing it!
[16:45] ---
What are you doing?
[16:48] ---
Please keep your mouth shut.
[16:52] ---
But gothic lolita is expensive,
way over my budget.
[16:57] ---
If you can't do gothic lolita,
[17:00] ---
how about trying something a little mature?
[17:03] ---
The sexy route?
[17:05] ---
Nice!
[17:07] ---
But...
[17:08] ---
that kind of thing would look great on me.
[17:11] ---
It might be too stimulating for my fans!
[17:15] ---
Oh dear...
[17:19] ---
PUNCH
[17:19] ---
Hey, please stop
punching me softly in the stomach.
[17:27] ---
There are more shops down this way,
so let's take a look...
[17:33] ---
What's wrong?
[17:34] ---
You keep squirming.
[17:37] ---
I want to pick flowers.
[17:40] ---
Oh, the restroom, right?
[17:43] ---
No!
[17:44] ---
Idols do not go to the restroom!
[17:48] ---
Jeez!
[17:52] ---
Impact there right now will make me...
[17:52] ---
PUNCH
[17:57] ---
Picking flowers!
[18:01] ---
Hideri!
[18:02] ---
I found a restroom!
[18:04] ---
I told you,
[18:06] ---
I don't have to go to the restroom!
I want to pick flowers!
[18:09] ---
Is that right?
[18:10] ---
Then shall I search for flowers?
[18:14] ---
Just this time! Just this one time,
I'm going to the restroom!
[18:17] ---
Yeah, yeah.
[18:18] ---
I'll be right back!
[18:23] ---
Please don't aim for early retirement
due to a scandal.
[18:26] ---
I wasn't thinking! This time for sure!
[18:31] ---
Huh?
[18:32] ---
That is the men's room, right?
[18:33] ---
Then why?
[18:36] ---
I feel much better!
[18:44] ---
I didn't know
what was going to happen back there.
[18:47] ---
If I'd sprung a leak in the street,
it would've resulted in a major scandal—
[18:51] ---
Excuse me.
[18:52] ---
Oof...
[18:55] ---
What's wrong?
[18:56] ---
I staggered for a moment
[18:59] ---
under the weight
of my heavy drawing paper.
[19:03] ---
Let me carry it for you.
[19:05] ---
HEAVY
[19:08] ---
Paper is pretty heavy.
[19:10] ---
But that's okay.
[19:12] ---
I'll carry it.
[19:14] ---
I can't have you staggering around
when we're walking together.
[19:17] ---
Besides, this isn't like boxes of cabbages
that need to be shipped out.
[19:23] ---
I mean, my character
is supposed to be really weak, but...
[19:29] ---
What are you doing?
[19:37] ---
I just can't find a decent outfit!
[19:40] ---
Even though we've been
to a bunch of shops...
[19:43] ---
Now I can't make it to the top of Stile!
[19:47] ---
That's what you're after?
[19:49] ---
Instead of buying something,
[19:50] ---
why don't you try
making your own outfit?
[19:54] ---
Actually, I tried that several times,
[19:57] ---
but I'd get obsessive about the details.
[19:59] ---
The materials were surprisingly expensive,
[20:02] ---
and by the time I finished it,
the season would be over,
[20:04] ---
so I didn't have a chance to wear it!
[20:06] ---
And the style I made it in
would be out of style by then!
[20:10] ---
That's what can happen when you make
something based on the season.
[20:14] ---
Oh, I have an idea!
[20:16] ---
If you're not opposed to it,
[20:17] ---
how about asking Mafuyu
if she has any outfits she doesn't need?
[20:22] ---
What kind of clothes
does Mafuyu wear again?
[20:25] ---
I'm not interested in anyone but myself,
so I can't really remember,
[20:29] ---
but Mafuyu is short, so...
[20:32] ---
MAFUYU
[20:34] ---
Um, I don't know
if a smock would look good on me.
[20:39] ---
A smock?
[20:45] ---
- How cute!
- Not bad.
[20:48] ---
Is cosplay your hobby, Mafuyu?
[20:51] ---
No.
[20:53] ---
I just get satisfaction
out of buying the outfits.
[20:56] ---
This is more cosplay
than someone's used clothing!
[21:01] ---
It's cute, but I can't
walk outside wearing this!
[21:05] ---
You need to understand TPO,
Time, Place and Occasion!
[21:08] ---
Okay, okay.
[21:09] ---
Is that right?
[21:10] ---
In that case...
[21:12] ---
Could this be your...
[21:14] ---
That's right. I just couldn't
make myself throw it away, so I kept it.
[21:18] ---
- Hi-de-ri...
- Hi-de-ri...
[21:22] ---
MAFUYU
[21:23] ---
I knew it!
[21:25] ---
I knew your intention was to use me
as a plaything from the very beginning!
[21:29] ---
Okay, okay.
[21:30] ---
What's the harm?
[21:33] ---
N-No!
[23:11] ---
Big Brother! Welcome home!
[23:14] ---
We've been waiting for you!
[23:21] ---
Today we'll introduce you to a new friend!
[23:26] ---
I'm Hideri!
[23:35] ---
OWNER INAUGURATION, SISTER ATTACK
[23:35] ---
Next time,
"Owner Inauguration, Sister Attack."
