**[00:09] kusa**
Arima. Be quiet.
**[00:11] ari**
Oh, sorry. Shall I make some tea?
**[00:14] kusa**
If I want some, I'll tell you.
**[00:15] gero**
Is it because second term's starting?
**[00:18] gero**
Is it because of them?
**[00:20] gero**
Is that why you're feeling grumpy, President?
**[00:23] kusa**
You're calling me grumpy?
**[00:25] kusa**
Have I done something to
annoy you, Gero Akoya-kun?
**[00:31] gero**
You only use my last name like that
when you're feeling grumpy, President.
**[00:36] kusa**
I'm afraid you're wrong about that, Gero-kun.
**[00:39] ari**
Oh, I know!
**[00:41] ari**
I'll bring out the dacquoise
I've been holding on to.
**[00:44] kusa**
No.
**[00:44] gero**
No thank you.
**[00:45] ari**
But at times like this...
**[00:47] kusa**
What do you mean...
**[00:48] gero**
..."times like this"?
**[00:49] ari**
Oh... Well...
**[00:51] both**
What is it?
**[00:52] zun**
I have had enough of this!
**[00:55] zun**
Members of the Caerula Adamas.
**[00:57] zun**
Our Total Conquest of Earth's Lifeforms
Project has reached a serious problem.
**[01:02] zun**
We still have not identified the enemy,
**[01:04] zun**
and they block every one of our plans.
**[01:07] kusa**
Our most recent plan, as well...
**[01:10] kusa**
It means our present strategy is not effective.
**[01:14] zun**
Aurite is correct.
**[01:16] zun**
I cannot afford to waste any more of
my precious Zundar Needles like this.
**[01:20] zun**
We must fundamentally rethink our strategy.
**[01:23] ari**
Precious?
**[01:24] gero**
Fundamentally?
**[01:25] zun**
That's right!
**[01:27] zun**
Instead of waiting for them to appear,
we shall go on the offensive!
**[01:30] kusa**
Go on the offensive?
**[01:33] zun**
A new development awaits us!
***SIGN*** Love is Stronger than Pride
**[03:15] guy**
It happened before, too.
He does such weird things by himself.
**[03:19] guy**
He really can't read the mood.
**[03:22] guy**
Or maybe it's that he *doesn't* read the mood?
**[03:24] ---**
Yeah, could be...
**[03:26] uri**
*What are they talking about?*
**[03:28] uri**
*No,* who *are they talking about?*
***SIGN*** Makuwa Uriya
**[03:31] uri**
*What kind of person must one be*
**[03:33] uri**
*to come up in their conversation?*
**[03:35] uri**
* The bold type that doesn't read*
* the mood, but pretends he just can't?*
**[03:38] uri**
* The self-centered type that can't read*
* the mood, but pretends he just doesn't?*
**[03:42] uri**
*A hybrid between them?*
**[03:44] uri**
I only know one person like that.
**[03:48] uri**
Someone who, despite caring what others think,
**[03:50] uri**
views showing that interest as a sign of failure.
**[03:53] uri**
Yes.
**[03:54] uri**
That is...
**[03:56] guy**
Should we go?
**[03:57] guy**
Let's go.
**[04:00] uri**
*I know. I really do know.*
**[04:03] uri**
*I'm excessively self-conscious.*
**[04:06] uri**
*No one really cares what I do.*
**[04:08] uri**
* No, I'm the one who's*
* weird for caring about that.*
**[04:10] uri**
* Actually, it's caring about it that*
* makes me excessively self-conscious.*
**[04:13] uri**
*I feel like my mind's racing in circles.*
**[04:15] uri**
*Do I want to care or not?*
**[04:17] uri**
*Do I want to act like I care or not?*
**[04:19] uri**
*And* should* *I care or not?*
**[04:21] aur**
Makuwa Uriya.
**[04:23] arg**
Monster of ego.
**[04:24] per**
You'll make an appropriate
servant to the Caerula Adamas.
**[04:29] uri**
What's going on? Is this a delusion?
**[04:32] uri**
Or a prank?
**[04:34] uri**
No, it must be a delusion.
**[04:35] uri**
After all, I'm not exactly famous
enough to be the subject of a prank.
**[04:39] uri**
But what if, by chance, someone films
this and the video is put on the internet,
**[04:40] kusa**
Aurum!
**[04:41] ari**
Argentum!
**[04:43] gero**
Perla!
**[04:43] uri**
and this becomes my world debut,
and I become surprisingly popular?
**[04:47] trio**
Donum!
**[04:50] uri**
That's right!
**[04:51] uri**
I'm not some ordinary gourd *(uri)*,
but a special melon!
**[04:54] uri**
Yes, a muskmelon!
***SIGN*** Earth Defense Club (lol)
**[05:06] ryuu**
Hey!
**[05:07] ryuu**
So who came up with the name
"Earth Defense Club," anyway?
**[05:10] atsu**
Who knows? It's been called that
since I started coming here.
**[05:14] ryuu**
Well, not like it matters.
**[05:16] en**
If it doesn't matter, don't ask.
**[05:17] ryuu**
Yufuin-senpai, is that manga interesting?
**[05:21] en**
Occasionally.
**[05:22] ryuu**
Which means it's usually boring, then?
**[05:25] io**
Sounds like your relationships with girls.
**[05:28] ryuu**
Occasionally interesting.
**[05:30] ryuu**
The memories are priceless.
**[05:32] io**
Don't make me laugh.
**[05:34] en**
I'm impressed you two can hang out.
**[05:37] ryuu**
*You're* saying that, Yufuin-senpai?
**[05:39] en**
What does that mean?
**[05:41] atsu**
You mean me and En-chan?
**[05:43] en**
Speaking of which, why
do you hang out with me?
**[05:47] atsu**
*You're* asking that?
**[05:49] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:50] atsu**
Why...? It just went that way, I guess?
**[05:53] en**
Wow. That's mean.
**[05:54] atsu**
You asking me why was pretty mean, too.
**[05:57] en**
Well, to me, Atsushi, you're basically air.
**[06:01] atsu**
Is that a compliment?
**[06:02] en**
It's a huge compliment.
**[06:04] atsu**
Is it?
**[06:09] yumoto**
Yo!
**[06:10] en**
Why are you coming in from there?
**[06:12] yumoto**
And down!
**[06:14] yumoto**
I think a change of mood is a good thing sometimes.
**[06:16] atsu**
What do you mean, change of mood?
**[06:18] atsu**
I'd really like to hear about this.
**[06:20] yumoto**
Just kidding. It's a joke.
**[06:22] yumoto**
It's because Wombat ran away!
**[06:24] en**
He should just give up and
surrender himself to you already.
**[06:27] yumoto**
That's right!
**[06:29] ryuu**
What do you even like about that bristly thing?
**[06:31] io**
He stinks, too.
**[06:33] wom**
I am not bristly, nor do I stink!
**[06:37] yumoto**
Oh, now look! Wom-san is pouting! Poor thing!
**[06:42] yumoto**
Well, *I'm* still on your side, okay?
**[06:45] en**
But if Yumoto was chasing you,
why did you show up after he did?
**[06:50] atsu**
And where's Mr. Tawarayama?
**[06:53] atsu**
Did you leave him again?
**[06:54] wom**
He's right here!
**[06:56] en**
Hey, rigor mortis is setting in!
**[06:58] atsu**
Who hung that bag on him?
**[07:00] yumoto**
Oh, that's mine!
**[07:02] en**
I wish you'd share a hundredth of the concern
you have for Wombat with Mr. Tawarayama.
**[07:10] wom**
It's the Love Alert!
**[07:13] en**
I'm sick of arguing about
whether we should go or not.
**[07:15] en**
Might as well just go.
**[07:17] atsu**
Let's zip over there and zip right back.
**[07:19] wom**
Stop treating this like a rush job!
**[07:27] en**
There he is!
**[07:29] melon**
I've been waiting, Battle Lovers!
**[07:33] en**
You, who befoul our beloved Earth!
**[07:36] ryuu**
No justice can come from loveless power!
**[07:38] io**
Love is all!
**[07:40] atsu**
Live for love! Die for love!
**[07:43] yumoto**
We are the heirs to the throne of love!
**[07:45] five**
Battle Lovers!
**[07:48] yumoto**
Feel the power...
**[07:50] five**
Of love!
**[07:52] yumoto**
Now, let's go right to the Love Attack!
**[07:55] melon**
Why don't we have a little talk?
**[07:57] yumoto**
A talk? About the jealousy, envy,
and inferiority you feel towards us?
**[08:02] melon**
Yes, that might make a good theme.
**[08:05] melon**
Jealousy, pity, and envy are three of a kind,
cooking poison in the same pot.
**[08:10] en**
What? Is today's monster a wannabe scholar?
**[08:14] en**
Epinard, I leave this sort of
self-sufficient type to you.
**[08:18] atsu**
Huh? Why?
**[08:19] en**
It seems like your strong point.
**[08:21] yumoto**
I'll beat him down with my
unique communication skills!
**[08:26] atsu**
You can't call it communication
if you're trying to beat him down.
**[08:29] atsu**
First, we have to be quiet and hear his side.
**[08:31] yumoto**
Huh? Grumble grumble.
**[08:33] atsu**
Don't say "grumble grumble."
**[08:35] en**
So what do you have to say?
**[08:39] melon**
The "Andes" in "Andes melon" doesn't
refer to the Andes Mountains.
***SIGN*** Scroll of Riddles
**[08:44] melon**
Did you know that?
**[08:47] melon**
The "Andes" in "Andes Melon" doesn't
refer to the Andes Mountains.
**[08:50] melon**
The truth is...
**[08:51] yumoto**
Yeah? Yeah?
**[08:53] melon**
The "Prince" in "Prince melon"
doesn't refer to royalty.
**[08:56] melon**
The truth is...
**[08:57] yumoto**
Yeah? Yeah?
**[08:58] melon**
Melons are not really fruit. The truth is...
**[09:02] yumoto**
Yeah? Yeah?
**[09:04] melon**
Are you interested?
**[09:06] melon**
If you want to know the truth, you'll
have to come to Mt. Binan on Sunday.
**[09:12] melon**
We shall meet again, friends of my soul!
**[09:15] yumoto**
What, you're not gonna tell us now?
**[09:17] yumoto**
No fair!
**[09:20] ryuu**
The "Andes" in "Andes melon"
**[09:23] ryuu**
comes from "anshin desu" (don't worry)
with the core (shin) removed.
**[09:26] ryuu**
A play on the fact that it's a melon with seeds.
**[09:28] ---**
Wow!
**[09:29] ryuu**
The "Prince" in "Prince melon"
**[09:31] ryuu**
is named after the group that
developed the seeds in a lab.
**[09:34] ---**
Wow!
**[09:36] ryuu**
"Fruit," according to the Ministry
of Agriculture and Forestry,
**[09:39] ryuu**
is something that grows into a tree,
**[09:40] ryuu**
whereas melons are herbaceous,
growing at the soil level,
**[09:43] ryuu**
which makes them fruit-like vegetables.
**[09:45] ---**
Wow!
**[09:47] ryuu**
By the way, the "musk" in "muskmelon"
**[09:49] ryuu**
doesn't come from the fact
that it appears to have a mask,
**[09:50] en**
You can look up anything on
the internet nowadays, huh?
**[09:53] ryuu**
but because it produces a
strong aroma known as "musk."
**[09:54] atsu**
And that monster seemed so confident
as it threw those riddles at us.
**[09:56] ---**
Wow! Wow!
**[09:58] ryuu**
One other thing: the mesh pattern
of a muskmelon is scars!
**[10:02] ryuu**
It's because of fractures that occur in
the rind as the fruit within is growing.
**[10:06] yumoto**
Wow!
**[10:08] en**
I wish the monster could have seen that "Wow!"
**[10:12] atsu**
He probably would've been
pretty pleased with himself.
**[10:14] io**
He probably thought he could lure
out someone like Yumoto that way.
**[10:19] yumoto**
Lure me out? What do you mean, Io-senpai?
**[10:22] io**
Yumoto, you really are carefree.
**[10:26] io**
Listen to me. The enemy's plan is...
**[10:29] zun**
To set a trap for them and strike!
**[10:31] zun**
That is our plan this time!
**[10:33] kusa**
We've been one step
behind them all this time.
**[10:36] zun**
This time, we shall annihilate the enemy.
**[10:39] zun**
It's a truly delicious idea.
**[10:43] ari**
By the way, Lord Zundar.
**[10:45] ari**
Is that thing you're eating right now a sn—
**[10:48] kusa**
Is that escargot?
**[10:50] ari**
No, it's a snail!
**[10:55] zun**
The foods of Earth are delicious.
**[10:58] zun**
This time, at last, our victory is assured!
**[11:02] wom**
An ambush?!
**[11:04] wom**
What a lovelessly dirty trick!
**[11:07] ryuu**
Regardless of the ambush,
just getting there would be a pain.
**[11:11] yumoto**
You mean you guys aren't planning to go?
**[11:15] ryuu**
You're saying you *are* planning to go?
**[11:16] yumoto**
Well, he did say, "We shall meet again!"
We solved his melon riddles, but still...
**[11:21] ryuu**
How far are you willing
to go to humor someone?
**[11:23] en**
It's not like we told him we'd go, so we're safe.
**[11:26] io**
That's right.
**[11:28] ---**
What?
**[11:28] wom**
Wait a minute!
**[11:30] wom**
The heirs to the throne of love,
the Battle Lovers, can't simply—
**[11:33] en**
But it'll be tiring, and baths cost money.
**[11:36] atsu**
You can't spend money you don't have.
**[11:40] io**
Why are you looking at me?
**[11:42] en**
I think Wombat's trying to
ask you to pay our way there.
**[11:46] io**
Now, look...
**[11:47] ryuu**
If you try to borrow money from Io,
your friendship with him is over.
**[11:51] wom**
In this situation, I suppose that cannot be helped.
**[11:54] wom**
In the name of love—
**[11:55] io**
Are you saying friendship isn't love?!
**[11:59] kino**
In that case, I know a very good way!

Our Press Society published your Earth

Isn't that term a little vague?

I know the words "internet" and "idols,"
**[13:03] en**
but when you put them together,
suddenly it all feels very indeterminate.
**[13:07] kino**
Don't think about it too hard!
**[13:09] kino**
The point is, you're popular!
**[13:13] kino**
I've received a lot of requests for more
coverage of that five-man hottie group!
**[13:19] yumoto**
You want us to do something
to Mr. Tawarayama again?
**[13:22] kino**
No, no, no! I'm speaking more of gravure.
**[13:27] all**
Gravure?!
**[13:28] kino**
If you agree to be my models...
**[13:33] kino**
I could probably pay you this much.
**[13:36] atsu**
No way!

That's not possible!
Are you trying to scam us?

Do not underestimate your own popularity!

If you sell well, I might be
able to pay you even more!

It's part of a plan to put pictures of the

in calendars and sell them like hotcakes!
**[14:32] en**
Who would buy something like that?
**[14:34] atsu**
You know, it's like those calendars with
burly firemen and athletes in various poses.
**[14:39] ryuu**
I've heard of those.

I feel vaguely like I've sold my soul.

Money talks, even in hell.

Well, would you like your receipt?
**[14:50] kino**
As thanks for the photos.

Cards! I wanna play Old Maid!

Then we'll play shiritori!

And the Yamanote Line game!
**[15:12] yumoto**
Oh, there's not enough time!

He's sure excited.
**[15:16] ryuu**
Damn, persistent caller.

Did something happen?

That's only natural.

That's so cold! Take a selfie with me, okay?
**[15:37] io**
Sure, but won't she think it's
just a badly shopped photo?
**[15:44] ryuu**
Girls are cute, but they're
really annoying at times.
**[15:48] en**
Really? At times?

Well, I think of the annoyance
as part of their cuteness.
**[15:53] en**
Amazing.
**[15:54] en**
Anyway, so we have to climb this?

If someone says to meet on Mt. Binan,
they'd normally mean the summit, right?
**[16:07] en**
Can we transform?

Oh? Have you finally recognized
yourselves as the Battle Lovers?
**[16:12] en**
No, but our physical skills increase
when we transform, right?

I thought it'd make it a little easier.

We are the heirs to the throne of love!

En-chan, you never exercise effort,
spirit, or endurance, do you?
**[16:38] en**
Yeah. I'd rather be a lifetime idler.
**[16:42] en**
That was close! What is this thing?
**[16:44] atsu**
A sinkhole, maybe?

Now I'm even more tired.

By the way, Atsushi, what do

Go to college and get a job
like most people, I guess?
**[17:01] atsu**
Io, are you going to the Cayman Islands?
**[17:02] io**
There's no retiring from
investment and management, after all.
**[17:05] ryuu**
Well, I'm gonna become Hugh Hefner!
**[17:07] io**
I don't know about that.
**[17:09] yumoto**
I'm gonna become the world's
#1 bath-firewood man!
**[17:12] en**
Isn't your family's pubilc bath a *natural* hot spring?
**[17:15] yumoto**
That's true, but "bath-washer man"
doesn't have as nice a ring to it.
**[17:19] ryuu**
What is all this, anyway?
**[17:24] yumoto**
Hey!
**[17:25] yumoto**
Hey, Melon Monster!
**[17:29] yumoto**
We're here!
**[17:32] melon**
Wh-What are you doing here?!
**[17:34] yumoto**
You told us to come!
**[17:36] melon**
Well, yes, but on the way up, I set all those...
**[17:40] atsu**
Oh, you mean that survival action stuff?
**[17:43] yumoto**
That was pretty fun! Thanks!
**[17:46] ryuu**
No, I don't think he put
those there for us to enjoy.
**[17:49] yumoto**
Oh, really?
**[17:53] melon**
You may be my enemy, but I am impressed!
**[17:54] atsu**
Looks like he bounced back.
**[17:57] melon**
You must be very interested in
the melon riddles I threw at you.
**[18:01] yumoto**
Yeah. Actually, we figured
them all out using the internet.
**[18:04] melon**
What?!
**[18:05] yumoto**
"Anshin desu," the name of a group,
and fruit-like vegetables.
**[18:09] yumoto**
Also "musk" and scars.
**[18:10] melon**
It can't be... No...
**[18:12] melon**
You solved my melon riddles so easily?!
**[18:15] yumoto**
Also, sorry...
**[18:17] yumoto**
I'm the kind of person who doesn't really
care if he gets melon after dinner or not.
**[18:20] en**
Same here, actually.
**[18:22] atsu**
It's just another gourd, anyway.
**[18:24] ryuu**
I prefer cherries.
**[18:26] ryuu**
Not American cherries, but Sato Nishiki.
**[18:29] io**
Those are more expensive too, right?
**[18:31] melon**
*It can't be... You don't care about melons?*
**[18:36] melon**
It's melon, you know? *That* melon!
**[18:38] yumoto**
Sorry.
**[18:40] yumoto**
If you give me some, I *will* eat it, of course.
**[18:42] melon**
What an apathetic reaction!
**[18:44] melon**
You've shaken my entire raison d'etre!
**[18:48] en**
He's suffering.
**[18:50] atsu**
Really suffering.
**[18:51] ryuu**
Why are you talking about
"raison d'etre," anyway?
**[18:55] melon**
J-Just kidding. I knew that, too.
**[18:58] melon**
The melon is a relic of the past.
**[19:01] melon**
I was just playing melon.
**[19:03] melon**
Because they say melons are tops, you know?
**[19:06] yumoto**
Playing melon? Melons are tops?
**[19:08] melon**
In the same way bananas started
to sell out in an instant,
**[19:12] melon**
and the way people started to say that eggs
are the honor student of foodstuffs,
**[19:15] melon**
even thinking of melons as
having value is a total anachronism.
**[19:16] atsu**
Is this guy okay? He's getting
into self-abuse now...
**[19:20] melon**
I knew all that,
**[19:21] melon**
but when you say that, it just makes
people worry about you, you know?
**[19:25] melon**
So the melon was just playing melon!
**[19:28] en**
Who is he even talking to?
**[19:30] ryuu**
Himself, I think?
**[19:32] io**
He seems desperate to bounce back from this.
**[19:34] melon**
I'm not special at all,
**[19:36] melon**
but whether you're expecting
me to be special or not,
**[19:40] melon**
I'd still like to meet your expectations,
or something like that.
**[19:43] melon**
Have you ever met someone so willing to
think things down two or three levels?
**[19:48] melon**
Or something like that!
**[19:49] yumoto**
What's he talking about?
**[19:51] en**
In a word, he's excessively self-conscious?
**[19:54] atsu**
That's likely.
**[19:55] melon**
Likely?!
**[20:00] yumoto**
I don't really understand, but don't sweat it.
**[20:04] yumoto**
No worries!
**[20:04] melon**
No worries?!
**[20:06] yumoto**
That's right. We did come, after all.
**[20:09] melon**
You took pity on me!
**[20:11] yumoto**
This is a nice place. I'm glad we came.
**[20:15] yumoto**
We owe you, Melon Monster.
**[20:17] yumoto**
If not for you, I would never have
given a second thought to melons.
**[20:22] yumoto**
I'm glad.
**[20:25] yumoto**
I like melon-flavored shaved ice and such.
**[20:29] en**
And melon bread.
**[20:30] atsu**
And melon soda, too.
**[20:32] io**
The cheap stuff has its own appeal.
**[20:34] ryuu**
And everything has its own flavor.
**[20:49] melon**
So you don't mind a melon like me?
**[20:52] yumoto**
Why would we mind?
**[20:56] wom**
Everyone, now! Give him love!
**[20:59] yumoto**
Love Shower!
**[21:09] melon**
Ah, the synergistic effect
of comfort and healing!
**[21:12] melon**
100% fruit juice is soaking into my scars!
**[21:15] melon**
I don't need to stay in a
paulownia box any longer!
**[21:21] yumoto**
Love is over!
**[21:25] zun**
The presence has disappeared.
**[21:27] zun**
So he's been loved, as well?
**[21:29] gero**
A shame.
**[21:31] kusa**
Forgive us, Lord Zundar.
**[21:33] kusa**
It seems our selection was ill-considered.
**[21:35] zun**
But it did have a bit of an effect.
**[21:38] ari**
Effect?
**[21:39] zun**
Let's be satisfied with what we did for today.
**[21:44] zun**
After we take a brief rest,
we'll consider our next development.
**[21:49] zun**
With that, I bid thee farewell!
**[21:55] kino**
It looks like the gravure was popular.
**[21:58] kino**
I hope this will translate into numbers, as well.
**[22:02] kino**
Right?
**[23:40] gero**
Isn't it true that the more a person
thinks of himself as "cute,"
**[23:43] gero**
the blacker his heart must be?
**[23:45] gero**
How do I know that's true?
**[23:47] gero**
Well, it's true of me, after all!
**[23:50] gero**
Next time: Love is Glasses...
***SIGN*** Next Time
***SIGN*** Love is Glasses...
**[23:53] gero**
Conquest!
