SIGN    Comical Psychosomatic Medicine!
SIGN    Episode 17
    "Think Proactively About
    Painful Things?!"
[00:04] Himeru
    Will I be okay? Will I be okay?
[00:07] Ryou
    Is it true that Himeru-san
    is in trouble again?
[00:09] Asuna
    Yes, it's like she doesn't even
    have time left to think.
[00:12] Asuna
    She left this coded message.
[00:14] Ryou
    Huh?
[00:14] Ryou
    Looks to me like she has lots of time.
SIGN    Asuna! Help me!
SIGN    Code Hint: Take out the tanuki's "ta"!
[00:16] Ryou
    Also, this takes the "ta" out
    of "tasukete" (help), too...
[00:18] Asuna
    She started working part-time
    at a café recently,
SIGN    Now it's "sukete"
    (be see-through)...
[00:20] ---
    but it seems like it's not going well.
[00:22] Ryou
    A café?
[00:22] Asuna
    Apparently, it's called "Healthy Café"
    and focuses on health foods.
SIGN    Chinese
SIGN    Menmen
    Ramen
[00:26] Ryou
    Health foods?
[00:27] Asuna
    Oh, this is the place.
SIGN    Curry Curry
[00:29] Ryou
    Okay.
SIGN    Jingle Jingle
[00:31] Guy
    Hey, come on in!
[00:32] Guy
    Welcome to the Healthy Café.
[00:35] Ryou
    Why does the staff look
    completely unhealthy?!
[00:36] Ryou
    There's an obvious contradiction here!
[00:38] Guy
    Table for two.
[00:40] Himeru
    R-Right!
[00:41] Ryou
    Ah, Himeru-sa—
[00:42] Himeru
    Oink.
[00:44] Ryou
    Someone who could pass for this
    café's mascot just showed up!
[00:46] Himeru
    W-Welcome.
SIGN    White Sow Black Sow Pink Sow
SIGN    Anxious
    Depressed
    Scared
[00:48] Asuna
    She turns into sows of different colors
    depending on her stress level.
[00:51] Ryou
    She becomes a sow, no matter what?!
[00:53] Himeru
    W-Welcome to Healthy Café Re-examination.
SIGN    Re-examination
[00:57] Ryou
    That name doesn't give a
    "healthy" image at all!
[00:58] Ryou
    Why are you working at a place like this?!
[01:00] Asuna
    Well, no matter where Onee-chan works,
    she's always making mistakes.
[01:04] Himeru
    So I end up getting fired in the... end.
[01:07] Ryou
    Oh, you mean in the end, you get fired.
[01:09] Ryou
    For a second, I wondered where
    exactly the fire was going.
[01:11] Himeru
    Because of that, I can't get
    a job at a normal place.
SIGN    Manager
[01:14] Himeru
    Only places like this will hire me.
[01:16] Ryou
    Why are you working part-time, anyway?
[01:18] Ryou
    You're already a nurse, aren't you?
[01:20] Himeru
    Well, I'm embarrassed to say it,
[01:22] Himeru
    but I was trying to save money
    to buy my family a present.
[01:26] Ryou
    That's not embarrassing at all!
[01:28] Ryou
    What sort of present?
[01:29] Himeru
    Uh... It's really embarrassing...
[01:32] Himeru
    An H doll.
[01:33] Ryou
    That is embarrassing!
[01:34] Himeru
    Oh, please don't misunderstand!
[01:36] Himeru
    I mean a hina doll.
SIGN    Hina Doll
[01:37] Himeru
    I was embarrassed to say
    it, so I used the initial.
[01:39] Ryou
    It's even more embarrassing that way!
[01:41] Himeru
    It's the H Festival, but we
    don't even have any H sweets,
SIGN    H
    Festival
SIGN    °Try to figure out what Himeru-chan's saying along with the doctor!
[01:44] Himeru
    so I wanted to give them an H S-M.
[01:46] Ryou
    You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?
[01:48] Ryou
    Well, still, they did hire you,
    so you should work hard...
SIGN    The answer will be revealed later!!
[01:50] Himeru
    But I can't.
[01:52] Ryou
    Huh?
[01:52] Himeru
    I keep remembering all the times I got
    fired, and I can't concentrate on work.
[01:56] Himeru
    Because of that, I've made a
    lot of mistakes here, too...
SIGN    Manager
[01:58] Himeru
    Thankfully, the manager hasn't
    found out yet, but...
[02:01] Ryou
    Uh, I think he just found out.
[02:03] Ryou
    So, this time, I'll teach you some
    psychological techniques to try
[02:06] ---
    when you've remembered something painful.
[02:08] Ryou
    Professor Spera, a psychologist,
    told a group of people
SIGN    What do I do now?!
[02:11] Ryou
    who'd been laid off to vent their rage
    and frustration for 20 minutes per day.
SIGN    Damn that boss who laid me off!
SIGN    One Week Later...
[02:16] Ryou
    Then, one week later,
[02:17] Ryou
    compared to people who weren't
    told to do anything,
[02:20] Ryou
    the laid-off group clearly
    felt more optimistic.
[02:22] Asuna
    What?!
SIGN    A Few Months Later...
[02:22] Ryou
    And a few more months later,
[02:24] Ryou
    of the people who weren't told to do
    anything, 14% had found new jobs,
[02:28] Ryou
    but of those who were told
    to vent, 53% had new jobs.
[02:32] Asuna
    It was that different?
[02:33] Ryou
    Another psychologist, Lumley,
[02:35] Ryou
    told college students with
    stress-related insomnia
[02:36] [SONG] Girl
    What that teacher said bothered me...
[02:37] Ryou
    to vent their feelings in a journal.
SIGN    They made fun of me today,
    and it pissed me off.
[02:41] Ryou
    The students who did that
    earned higher grades
[02:44] ---
    that semester than students who didn't.
[02:46] Asuna
    Really?!
SIGN    Pant
[02:47] Grandpa
    I should keep a journal of my feelings, too!
[02:50] Grandpa
    They made fun of me today,
    and it turned me on!
[02:51] Ryou
    Uh, please keep your carnal
    desires locked in your heart.
[02:53] Ryou
    These activities are called
    "emotional disclosure."
[02:57] Ryou
    Doing things like these actually
    makes you feel better.
[03:00] Ryou
    When you're feeling negative...
SIGN    I can't think like this...!
[03:04] Ryou
    Thinking like this will only make
    those feelings harder to escape,
SIGN    I need to be stronger...!
[03:06] ---
    adding to your stress.
[03:07] Ryou
    It's important to set aside time each day,
SIGN    My boss makes me so mad! So mad! So mad...!
[03:09] ---
    even just 10 minutes, to think
    about those negative emotions.
SIGN    She won't call me! I hate it! I hate it! I hate it!
[03:12] Ryou
    Don't look away from the
    painful feelings inside you.
[03:16] Ryou
    Pain, sadness, anger...
[03:18] Ryou
    They are all part of you.
[03:20] Ryou
    When you can believe that,
    you can overcome it.
[03:23] Asuna
    I understand!
[03:24] Himeru
    Um, could I take your order now?
[03:27] Ryou
    You're treating that whole
    explanation like idle chit-chat?!
[03:30] Himeru
    Um, today I recommend...
[03:33] Himeru
    The "Even if we didn't wash our hands,
    it's full of love! Hamburg steaks!"
[03:36] Ryou
    I'm not eating that!
    Forget the love and wash your hands!
[03:37] Himeru
    And the "Lots of work went into them!
[03:40] ---
    Egg sandwiches without the
    mayo, mustard, or egg!"
[03:42] Ryou
    Okay, that's just bread slices!
[03:44] Ryou
    No work went into that at all!
[03:45] Himeru
    Then how about "Whatever random dish our
    fickle chef came up with on a whim"?
[03:48] Ryou
    That's nothing but whims upon whims!
[03:49] Ryou
    What's he even going to make?!
[03:52] Himeru
    It seems our chef went to
    play pachinko on a whim.
[03:54] Ryou
    He even decides whether or
    not to work on a whim?!
SIGN    *Answer: "It's the (H)ina Festival, but we don't even have any (H)ina sweets,
[03:57] Ryou
    It doesn't matter. Just bring
    whatever lunch set you have.
[04:00] Himeru
    O-Okay, then, whatever we have...
SIGN    so I wanted to give them a (H)ina-(S)a(M)a." Did you figure it out?
[04:02] Himeru
    Oh, and what would you like to drink?
[04:04] Ryou
    Oh, I get to choose? Then a co—
[04:06] Himeru
    Would you like Tabasco or chili oil?
[04:09] Ryou
    What, did I lose a bet or something?!
[04:11] Himeru
    We have both in either hot or iced.
[04:13] Ryou
    Those are the two most
    pointless options ever!
[04:14] Ryou
    Fine! Just bring me iced chili oil!
[04:16] Himeru
    And would you like lemon or milk?
[04:18] Ryou
    Hmm, that's a tough decision.
[04:19] Ryou
    Then I'll have milk chili oil...
[04:21] Ryou
    Like I'd say that!
[04:21] Ryou
    What about this place is "healthy," anyway?!
[04:23] Ryou
    There's not a shred of "healthy" anywhere!
[04:26] Himeru
    It's actually "Hell See."
[04:27] Ryou
    See Hell?!
[04:29] Ryou
    With a menu like this,
    anyone would see Hell!
SIGN    A Few Days Later...
[04:32] Himeru
    The café went out of business
    before I could be fired.
[04:35] Ryou
    That shouldn't be a surprise.
