[00:01] Sheryl
    Tanabata at the Game Center?
[00:03] Lily
    Yeah!
[00:04] Lily
    That game center gets a lot of kids, so they
    set up a special display and stuff for it.
[00:09] Sheryl
    Hmm. But do you actually know
    what Tanabata is, Lily?
[00:13] Lily
    Of course I do!
[00:15] Lily
    It's the only day of the year that Orihime
    and Hikoboshi get to see each other!
[00:18] Lily
    It's so romantic!
[00:20] Sheryl
    Hey, settle down! You don't
    want to break the plate.
[00:23] Lily
    In honor of that, you write a wish about
    the person you like on a tanzaku paper strip.
[00:28] Sheryl
    Oh, of course.
[00:30] Sheryl
    But for now, let's just wash the dishes.
[00:33] Sheryl
    Hmm? A wish about the person you like?
[00:37] Sheryl
    Is that really what you do
    for Tanabata in Japan?
[00:47] Lily
    I thought tanzaku weren't supposed
    to be so easy for people to see.
[00:52] Lily
    I guess Japanese people
    must be really brave.
[00:55] Aoi
    Hmm? What's up, Lily-chan?
[00:58] Lily
    Oh!
[00:59] Lily
    Um, what did you guys write on your tanzaku?
[01:05] Aoi
    Well, it's a little embarrassing, but...
[01:07] Lily
    Huh?
SIGN    I wish that they'd
    buy me a new cell phone
[01:10] Aoi
    I wrote something really practical.
[01:15] Aoi
    What did you write, Kaga-san?
SIGN    Become a
    pro gamer
[01:18] Aoi
    A pro gamer?!
[01:20] Aoi
    Are you that serious about it?!
[01:23] Karin
    So what if I am?
[01:25] Hotaru
    I wished for something that would
    benefit the entire planet.
SIGN    I wish for
    world peace
[01:31] Hotaru
    A fitting wish for a class president.
[01:36] Aoi
    So what did you write, Lily-chan?
[01:40] Lily
    W-Well I...
[01:47] Renji
    Oh. What the?
[01:50] Renji
    I guess someone's tanzaku fell off.
[01:54] Renji
    Huh?!
SIGN    I wish to be
    with Renji forever
[01:56] Renji
    Th-This must be...
[02:02] Lily
    D-Did you look?
[02:04] Renji
    Uh... Um...
[02:07] Lily
    Renji, you dummy!
[02:09] Renji
    Wait! Lily-chan!
[02:11] Narrator
    But at any rate, it is now summer!
[03:49] Narrator
    It is now late July...
[03:54] Narrator
    and time for a long-awaited summer vacation!
SIGN    Games, Print Club, Prizes,
    Medal Games, Cosplay, etc...
[04:04] Narrator
    It's the first day of summer vacation
    and the game center is, yet again,
[04:09] Narrator
    bustling with kids who
    love their video games!
[04:14] Aoi
    Even during summer vacation, I just want
    to hang out at the game center, you know?
[04:19] Lily
    What should we play first?
[04:21] Momoko
    Oh, it's you two!
[04:24] Momoko
    Welcome!
[04:26] Aoi; Lily
    Huh?!
[04:28] Renji
    Oh, nice to see you two.
[04:31] Renji
    I guess it is summer vacation.
    Enjoy yourselves, okay?
[04:34] Part-timer A
    Mochizuki-san, if there's anything at all
    you aren't sure about, feel free to ask.
[04:38] Part-timer B
    No need to be shy, okay?
[04:41] Momoko
    Okay! Thank you very much!
[04:43] Part-timers
    So cute!
[04:49] Aoi
    Hey, Renji!
[04:51] Aoi
    Why the heck is she working here?!
[04:54] Renji
    Huh? It's simple.
[04:57] Renji
    She was looking for a job near
    campus with flexible hours.
[05:01] Renji
    She asked me about this job
    and I suggested she apply.
[05:04] Aoi
    My idiot brother!
[05:06] Renji
    Why the name-calling?!
[05:08] Aoi
    'Cause you're a total blockhead!
[05:10] Aoi
    Not good!
[05:12] Aoi
    She's already the top candidate
    to become Lily's rival in love,
[05:17] Aoi
    but going to the same college and job as
    Renji gives her a massive advantage.
[05:23] Lily
    I want to work here too.
[05:25] Aoi
    What are you talking about?!
[05:27] Aoi
    You can't get a job when
    you're still in middle school!
[05:29] Lily
    But!
[05:30] Aoi
    No! No buts!
[05:34] Momoko
    I'm so impressed that she
    can understand English!
[05:38] Momoko
    As a college student, I really
    need to study harder!
[05:42] Customer
    Um, can I get some help?
[05:44] Renji
    Yes! Coming!
[05:45] Renji
    Mochizuki-san, can you handle things here?
[05:48] Momoko
    Sure!
[05:50] Aoi
    R-Renji?
[05:56] Aoi
    A big cat fight could
    break out at any moment!
[06:00] Momoko
    I've got to be able to
    communicate with her!
[06:04] Momoko
    Oh? Huh?
SIGN    Wipe...
[06:08] Lily
    This isn't clean.
[06:11] Aoi
    Th-The rude mother-in-law act?
[06:12] Momoko
    Ah! I-I'm very sorry!
[06:15] Momoko
    I'll clean it right away!
[06:17] Lily
    Here too.
[06:18] Momoko
    Ah! Right!
[06:19] Lily
    Here too!
[06:21] Momoko
    Understood, Senpai!
[06:23] Aoi
    She ain't your senpai!
[06:32] Lily
    I'm gonna help!
[06:34] Momoko
    Huh?
[06:35] Aoi
    She's at it again!
[06:37] Momoko
    I-I'll try to clean harder!
[06:41] Lily
    I've got to beat Momoko!
[06:50] Lily
    You do quite good work.
[06:53] Lily
    I'll permit you to work here!
[06:55] Momoko
    Th-Thank you very much.
[06:58] Aoi
    She's totally playing the senpai.
[07:00] Renji
    Whoa, look at this! It's sparkling clean!
[07:04] Aoi
    R-Renji?
[07:06] Renji
    When you get a free moment,
    you dive straight into cleaning.
[07:09] Renji
    First day and you already know the deal.
    I can tell you'll do a great job!
[07:14] Momoko
    Thank you, Kusakabe-kun!
[07:18] Lily
    Renji!
[07:19] Lily
    Praise me too!
[07:20] Renji
    Huh? Why?
[07:22] Momoko
    Thank you very much!
[07:24] Momoko
    This was all thanks to your input, Senpai!
[07:26] Lily
    Mm-hmm.
[07:28] Renji
    What just happened?
[07:35] Aoi
    Wow, there are so many kids!
[07:38] Aoi
    I wonder what they're here to play.
[07:40] Part-timer A
    Oh, it's gotta be Nidan.
[07:43] Lily
    Nidan?
[07:44] Part-timer B
    Yeah. Nidan is basically...
[07:46] Girl A
    What? You've never heard of Nidan?
[07:50] Girl A; Girl B
    It's Nice Girl Dancing!
[07:52] Girl B
    Nidan for short!
[07:54] Girl A
    It's a rhythm game you play by using
    your own cards to build your outfit
[07:58] Girl A
    and all the girls love it!
[08:01] Aoi
    Well, maybe they love it, but you're 
    talking about little girls, right?
[08:05] Aoi
    We're both in middle school,
    so this is kinda...
[08:09] Aoi
    Oh. Huh?
[08:12] Aoi
    What?! She's already in line!
[08:15] Nana
    Do you want to go next?
[08:17] Lily
    Mm-hmm!
SIGN    Nice Girl
    Dancing
[08:24] Lily
    What do I do with this?
[08:25] Aoi
    Huh? Well, I've never played
    this before either.
[08:29] Nana
    First, you gotta scan the card.
[08:31] Nana
    Is this your first time playing?
[08:34] Lily
    Yeah, it is.
[08:36] Nana
    Well, I guess it's your lucky day.
[08:38] Nana
    I'll lend you my most powerful outfit.
[08:41] Lily
    Whoa!
[08:43] Part-timer A; Part-timer B
    A... baby girl senpai?
[08:48] Nana
    You gotta push the button
    in time with the music.
[08:51] Lily
    O-Okay!
[08:53] Nana
    Not like that! Oh! R-Right there!
    You gotta get the special pose!
[08:58] Lily
    S-Special?
[09:00] Aoi
    I forgot that Lily-chan
    sucks at rhythm games.
SIGN    Event Failed...
SIGN    Event Failed...
[09:04] Nana
    Ah! Too bad!
[09:09] Nana
    Oh well.
[09:11] Nana
    Guess I can let you go one more time.
[09:14] Nana
    I'll watch over you until you can clear it.
[09:17] Nana
    It's my job as your senpai.
[09:20] Lily
    S-Senpai!
[09:23] Nana
    Anyway, put in your token and take the card.
[09:26] Lily
    Okay!
SIGN    Nice Girl
    Dancing
[09:32] Lily
    Oh!
[09:33] Lily
    Otokogi Koala?
[09:35] Nana
    Th-That card gets you a limited
    Otokogi Koala collaboration accessory!
[09:40] Aoi
    This koala keeps popping
    up everywhere, doesn't he?
[09:43] Nana
    All right. If you use that along with
    my koala outfit, you'll be unstoppable!
[09:49] Lily
    Really?!
[09:53] Lily
    S-So cute!
[10:05] Nana
    You're playing totally different now!
[10:07] Nana
    You've already improved that much?
[10:09] Aoi
    It's the power of Otokogi Koala!
[10:13] Nana
    You even nailed the special pose!
[10:16] Lily
    All right!
[10:18] Nana
    Wow, you beat it with a great score!
[10:21] Nana
    Nice job!
[10:22] Lily
    Thank you, Senpai!
[10:23] Aoi
    That was awesome, Lily-chan!
[10:27] Nana
    You're so lucky.
[10:29] Nana
    I don't have that accessory so I've
    never used my koala outfit before.
[10:36] Lily
    Here.
[10:38] Nana
    Huh?
[10:39] Lily
    You can have the card.
[10:41] Lily
    As thanks for today.
[10:43] Nana
    Huh? You're giving it to me?!
[10:45] Lily
    Yeah. Because I'm a big girl.
[10:50] Nana
    I'll go ask my mom if it's okay!
[10:54] Aoi
    She looks so happy!
[10:56] Aoi
    That really was big of you, Lily-chan.
[10:59] Aoi
    I bet you wanted to keep it.
[11:04] Aoi
    She's lining up to try to get another one!
[11:13] Sheryl
    Oh, Lily! I thought I'd find you here.
[11:16] Lily
    Huh?
[11:18] Lily
    Mama!
[11:19] Aoi
    Mrs. Baker?
[11:20] Sheryl
    I thought I'd drop in
    while I was out shopping.
[11:23] Sheryl
    I've always wanted to try
    some of the games here.
[11:29] Sheryl
    Oh no!
[11:30] Sheryl
    Just how do these things
    go in? I don't get it!
[11:34] Lily
    Mom, you can do it!
[11:36] Sheryl
    No, I can't! I don't know what to do!
[11:38] Renji
    In terms of gaming skills...
[11:39] Lily
    You've got to press these buttons!
[11:40] Aoi
    Lily sure takes after her mother, right?
[11:40] Sheryl
    What?
[11:43] Sheryl
    Maybe games just aren't fun for people
    like me who aren't mechanically inclined.
[11:49] Momoko
    Not to worry.
[11:50] Sheryl
    Huh?
[11:52] Momoko
    Even if you don't play games,
[11:54] Momoko
    there are many fun things to do here.
[11:59] Sheryl
    Huh. I didn't realize you had
    even more games downstairs.
[12:03] Lily
    Like print club!
[12:04] Lily
    I took one recently with
    Aoi and everyone, right?
[12:07] Aoi
    Yeah! That was fun.
[12:09] Renji
    Oh, yeah. Print club should be fun
    even if you aren't great at games.
[12:13] Momoko
    Yes!
[12:14] Momoko
    We also have clothes
    available to use for cosplay.
[12:18] Sheryl
    But isn't that more for younger girls?
[12:22] Sheryl
    I'm not so sure about dressing up at my age.
[12:25] Momoko
    Oh, it's fine!
[12:27] Momoko
    Students often come to
    take pictures with their mothers.
[12:31] Momoko
    There's nothing strange about it at all!
[12:33] Momoko
    A picture together in costume
    makes a lovely keepsake!
[12:36] Sheryl
    Really? Well, I suppose I
    could give it a try then.
[12:40] Momoko
    Yes, please do!
[12:43] Renji
    I never see Mochizuki-san get this aggressive
    and it's still only her first day at work.
[12:49] Lily
    Let's take one together, Mama.
[12:53] Sheryl
    H-How do we look?

[12:56] Aoi

[12:58] Momoko
    Wow, that's so great! Qipao family photo!
[13:00] Momoko
    Could I ask you to, you know,
    do more of a kung fu-like pose?
[13:05] Sheryl
    L-Like this?
[13:07] Momoko
    Ah! Yes! Very, very yes!
[13:11] Momoko
    Let's start taking pictures
    without wasting another second!
[13:15] Momoko
    Come on! Come on!
[13:16] Renji
    That triggered something weird inside her!
[13:19] Print Club Machine
    Okay, here we go! Three, two, one!
[13:33] Sheryl
    We sure took a bunch.
[13:38] Momoko
    Oh, I'm really, really sorry!
[13:41] Momoko
    I just love cosplay so much!
[13:43] Momoko
    When I see someone dressed up just right,
    I tend to take leave of my senses!
[13:47] Renji
    I guess that explains it.
[13:49] Sheryl
    It's fine, it's fine!
[13:51] Sheryl
    We got some lovely keepsakes
    from it, just as you said.
[13:55] Sheryl
    Besides, I finally understand
    why you love arcades so much!
[14:00] Lily
    Aren't they great?
[14:03] Momoko
    I'm so glad to hear that!
[14:06] Aoi
    Hey, let's take one too!
[14:10] Renji
    Some other time.
SIGN    Games, Print Club, Prizes,
    Medal Games, Cosplay, etc...
[14:13] Sheryl
    I'll stop by again sometime.
[14:15] Momoko
    Thank you for coming!
[14:23] Oliver
    What are these pictures from?
[14:25] Sheryl
    Oh, those? I went to the
    game center with Lily today and...
[14:31] Oliver
    You forced my wife and daughter
    into these indecent costumes?!
[14:35] Oliver
    You little bastard!
[14:40] Oliver
    Why...
[14:43] Oliver
    Why didn't you invite me
    to come along, Mother?!
[14:47] Sheryl
    That's why you're upset?!
[14:49] Sheryl
    There, there. Cheer up.
[14:52] Sheryl
    We'll all take one together next time.
[14:56] Oliver
    Mm-hmm.
[15:10] Narrator
    Yet again, the game center is bustling
    with the usual game-loving customers.
[15:15] Narrator
    However, from time to time, the arcade gets
    visitors who are just a little different.
[15:21] Jody
    Excuse me!
[15:22] Momoko
    Oh, yes?
[15:24] Jody
    I want to ask you something.
    Do you have a minute?
[15:29] Momoko
    Oh! She's a foreigner!
[15:31] Momoko
    I-I have to make her feel welcome!
[15:34] Momoko
    H-Hello.
[15:36] Momoko
    M-M-May I...
[15:38] Jody
    Huh?
[15:39] Momoko
    Um... Um...
[15:42] Renji
    Mochizuki-san, just let me handle this.
[15:44] Momoko
    Kusakabe-kun!
[15:47] Renji
    You got this.
[15:48] Renji
    Don't you always communicate
    with Lily-chan just fine?
[15:51] Renji
    Um, may I help you?
[15:55] Jody
    I'm here from Australia and my
    brother asked me to get some goods
[15:59] Jody
    of the most popular character in Japan.
[16:01] Jody
    Do you know which character that might be?
[16:03] Jody
    If you could help me out,
    that would be great.
[16:07] Renji
    Uh, what?
[16:08] Renji
    C-Could you wait just one moment, please?
[16:12] Renji
    That was way too fast for me to understand.
[16:14] Renji
    I never have this much trouble understanding
    what Lily-chan says, though.
[16:18] Lily
    What's wrong, Renji?
[16:20] Momoko
    Lily-chan!
[16:22] Renji
    Well... I'm having trouble
    understanding a customer's English.
[16:26] Lily
    Oh, is that all? I'll handle it.
[16:30] Lily
    Excuse me. What's the matter?
[16:33] Jody
    Yeah, you see...
[16:35] Jody
    I'm on holiday from Australia
[16:37] Jody
    and my little brother asked me
    to bring back something
[16:39] Jody
    with the most popular character in Japan
[16:41] Jody
    and I want you guys to help me out with that.
[16:44] Lily
    Got it!
[16:45] Lily
    I think you'll definitely find something!
[16:47] Lily
    There are just so many
    characters to choose from.
[16:47] Renji
    Thank goodness!
[16:49] Jody
    Really?
[16:49] Karin
    Holy cow, she's talking in English.
[16:50] Lily
    If you want, I can help you look.
[16:52] Hotaru
    Well of course she is. Lily-san
    is from England, after all.
[16:52] Jody
    Thank you. That would be a
    huge help! I'm Jody, by the way.
[16:56] Lily
    I'm Lily Baker.
[16:56] Aoi
    Yeah, no kidding.
[16:57] Jody
    Nice to meet you, Lily!
[16:58] Aoi
    But I'm so used to talking to her now,
[17:00] Aoi
    I guess I kinda forgot.
[17:03] Renji
    I guess I did too.
[17:04] Renji
    Lily-chan is really expressive and she
    communicates with gestures a lot.
[17:10] Renji
    She also takes care not to use
    too many big words with me.
[17:16] Renji
    And recently, she's been speaking
    more and more in Japanese.
[17:20] Lily
    I figured it out, Renji!
[17:22] Lily
    This here is Jody-san.
[17:24] Lily
    She says she came from Australia.
[17:26] Lily
    She wants to know what kind of character
    merch is popular in Japan right now.
[17:30] Renji
    Oh, of course. Character merch, huh.
[17:33] Karin
    That's easy.
[17:35] Karin
    It's totally fighting game characters!
[17:39] Jody
    Oh, fantastic!
[17:41] Karin
    Right? I've devoted my life to this thing.
[17:45] Karin
    Okay man, time to see what you got!
[17:48] Renji
    I'm on the clock!
[17:50] Aoi
    If you're looking for popular characters,
[17:53] Aoi
    check out Nidan!
[17:55] Lily
    Didn't you say that one's for little girls?
[17:58] Aoi
    I got curious after I saw you
    playing it yesterday, Lily-chan.
[18:03] Karin
    Yeah, but...
[18:05] Karin
    it's kinda crowded right now.
[18:10] Hotaru
    I would strongly recommend a quiz game.
[18:13] Hotaru
    It requires more than knowledge.
[18:15] Hotaru
    It requires team play and razor-sharp reflexes.
[18:18] Hotaru
    It is the ultimate kind of game!
[18:20] Jody
    Oh!
[18:21] Aoi
    It might be the ultimate, but quiz games are
    in Japanese so would she really understand?
[18:27] Karin
    Yeah, and they aren't
    about characters anyway.
[18:31] Lily
    In that case...
[18:35] Lily
    Otokogi Koala is our only choice!
[18:37] Renji
    Of course.
[18:39] Jody
    Lovely!
[18:41] Lily
    Jody-san is Australian, so I
    bet she's really into koalas.
[18:46] Renji
    N-Now that you mention it...
[18:49] Renji
    Wait...
[18:50] Renji
    Is that why Lily-chan
    picked Otokogi Koala?
[18:54] Lily
    And when this Mr. Koala wears sunglasses,
    then his otokogi mode starts!
[19:01] Renji
    Nah, I kind of doubt it.
[19:03] Aoi; Hotaru; Karin
    Mm-hmm.
[19:07] Jody
    You really like this character, huh.
[19:11] Lily
    Yup! I adore him!
[19:14] Jody
    Then I think he'll do.
[19:17] Jody
    I really have no idea
    how to get him, though.
[19:21] Lily
    Leave it to me!
[19:23] Aoi; Hotaru; Karin; Renji
    Whoa!
[19:28] Lily
    Honestly, I just can't seem to move him!
[19:31] Lily
    Jody, I'm so sorry!
[19:34] Jody
    Well, it does seem hard...
[19:37] Lily
    I'll keep trying!
[19:40] Karin
    Man, this hurts to watch.
[19:42] Aoi
    Maybe we should help her.
[19:45] Aoi
    Hmm?
[19:47] Renji
    Piled up like this, it might
    be better to aim for the back.
[19:51] Lily
    Oh, you're right!
[19:53] Lily
    Then I guess I should go for that one there.
[19:55] Renji
    Yeah, yeah. That guy is your target.

[20:08] Lily
    I got him!
[20:10] Aoi
    Nice job, Lily-chan!
[20:12] Karin
    Finally got him, huh.
[20:14] Hotaru
    I knew you would!
[20:16] Hotaru
    Today you have taught me how truly
    important it is to never give up.
[20:20] Lily
    Here.
[20:21] Jody
    Thank you!
[20:26] Jody
    You fancy him, don't you?
[20:29] Lily
    Wh-What? Um...
[20:34] Jody
    I can give you advice, if you'd like.
[20:37] Lily
    R-Really?!
[20:39] Jody
    Yeah, sure.
[20:40] Jody
    What have you been doing lately
    to get closer to him?
[20:40] Renji
    I wonder what they're talking about.
[20:42] Lily
    I've been writing him letters.
[20:43] Hotaru
    I clearly need to put more effort
    into my English studies.

    You little bastard!
[21:14] Oliver
    You've been stringing

    Huh? Uh, no... Dad, this isn't...
[21:22] Oliver
    Y-Y-You're in absolutely no position

    Ah!
[21:29] Lily
    Stop it, Papa!
[21:31] Lily
    And don't go into

    Lily...
[21:35] Oliver
    Your papa was just so worried about you...

    Come on, Papa.
