SIGN    The Sleeping One
[01:37] Sensei
    Good morning.
[01:40] Sensei
    What's wrong, Umi-kun?
[01:42] Umio
    That's my line.
[01:44] Umio
    Are you okay?
[01:45] Umio
    You were working on your manuscript for the
    exhibition in the nap room, weren't you?
[01:50] Sensei
    I finished the manuscript
    earlier. Don't worry.
[01:57] Kantoku
    We're going to have a lot of
    new doujins coming in.
[02:00] Kantoku
    Clear that flatbed and start
    stacking them, please.
[02:02] S; U
    Okay.
[02:03] Kantoku
    Make sure the new ones are visible.
[02:05] Umio
    Okay.
[02:12] Umio
    What's wrong, Sensei?
[02:14] Sensei
    I'd like one.
[02:16] Kantoku
    This isn't the exhibition.
[02:18] Sensei
    Look at all this stock!
[02:20] Sensei
    I'll freak out if we don't sell all of them.
[02:22] Umio
    This isn't your booth, Sensei!
[02:24] Umio
    Get a grip!
[02:26] Sensei
    Think of all the boxes that'll
    be left if we don't sell them.
[02:33] Umio
    Dammit, she needs help, soon.
[02:40] Sensei
    Where am I?
[02:43] Sensei
    Is the exhibition over?!
[02:45] Sensei
    I haven't sold a single copy!
[02:48] Umio
    Get some sleep, please.
[02:50] Umio
    And jeez,
[02:52] ---
    the nap room's been upgraded again.
[02:55] Umio
    It's practically a professional workspace.
[02:57] Kantoku
    Sensei draws our pop-ups and panels, too.
[03:07] Sensei
    Th-The stock...
[03:09] Sensei
    The room's so small
    because of all these boxes!
[03:12] Umio
    She's having the same dream again.
[03:20] Sensei
    Where am I?
[03:22] Umio
    Ah, you're awake.
[03:24] Sensei
    Y-Yeah...
[03:25] Umio
    You fell asleep, Sensei-san.
[03:28] Sensei
    Um... So in my dream,
    I was at the exhibition, and then...
[03:37] Sensei
    That actually happened.
[03:39] Umio
    Are you all right, Sensei-san?
[03:41] Umio
    I can't believe you worked so
    hard that you ended up like that.
[03:46] Sensei
    Of course I would.
[03:48] Sensei
    I get to hear from the
    readers at the exhibition.
[03:51] Sensei
    I get to see them happy with my work.
[03:54] Sensei
    There are people waiting for my manga.
[03:57] Sensei
    How could I not work?
[04:00] Umio
    Sounds like the Sensei that I know.
[04:01] Sensei
    But I can't let it affect my work.
[04:04] Sensei
    I'll be careful next time.
[04:06] Umio
    Oh, yeah. There was something
    I wanted to ask you.
[04:09] Umio
    That manga you wrote for the newcomer award.
[04:12] Umio
    How did it go?
[04:16] Sensei
    Well...
[04:18] Sensei
    I didn't get the award.
[04:20] Umio
    I see...
[04:22] Sensei
    But they said that I was promising,
    so I have an assigned editor now.
[04:27] Umio
    That's amazing!
[04:29] Sensei
    So, anyway...
[04:30] Umio
    Yes?
[04:30] Sensei
    The editor asked me if I wanted to work
    as an assistant for a manga artist.
[04:36] Umio
    That great—
[04:38] Umio
    If you started working as an assistant,
    does that mean you'd quit Uma?
[04:44] Sensei
    Yeah.
[04:45] Sensei
    Actually, I'm already doing assistant work.
[04:50] Sensei
    The author's publication is once a month,
    so I was going to work there along with Uma.
[04:56] Sensei
    But it overlaps with my doujin work, too,
    and you've seen what happens.
[05:01] Sensei
    I get it, I can't do both.
[05:04] Umio
    Sensei.
[05:05] Sensei
    But I don't want to quit Uma.
[05:08] Sensei
    And I want to do my assistant work.
[05:11] Sensei
    Hey... What do you think, Umi-kun?
[05:18] Umio
    I think you should prioritize
    your assistant work.
[05:24] Sensei
    I see. Of course.
[05:27] Umio
    You have a goal that you're working towards.
[05:31] Umio
    I don't think you have to stick to Uma.
[05:33] Sensei
    But I'll be sad,
    not being able to see you guys.
[05:42] Sensei
    Thanks, Umi-kun.
[05:46] Kantoku
    I see... An assistant, huh?
[05:49] Sensei
    Yes, and I don't want to cause
    any more trouble because of it.
[05:54] Sensei
    So, I...
[05:57] Sensei
    It was brief, but thank you.
[06:02] Kantoku
    I see.
[06:03] Kantoku
    I guess it can't be helped.
[06:04] Sensei
    Sorry.
[06:07] (Flashback) Hio
    What? Sensei-chan's quitting?
[06:09] (Flashback) Umio
    It's for the better.
[06:11] (Flashback) Umio
    So sudden.
[06:12] (Flashback) Umio
    Sensei has a dream.
[06:14] (Flashback) Umio
    Let's send her off with smiles.
[06:15] (Flashback) Kameko
    It's going to get lonely.
[06:32] Hio
    Thank you.
[06:34] Sensei
    Good work.
[06:37] Sensei
    Let's switch.
[06:38] Sensei
    I slept well, so I'm fully charged.
[06:41] Hio
    Good luck.
[06:43] Sensei
    Thanks.
[06:47] Hio
    Take care of your health.
[06:49] Hio
    Sleep and eat well, okay?
[06:51] Sensei
    All right.
[06:53] Hio
    You can't drink that and that together, okay?
[06:56] Hio
    It's bad for you.
[07:00] Sensei
    All right, I'll be careful.
[07:02] Sensei
    What's up with you?
[07:05] Hio
    Sensei-chan...
[07:07] Hio
    This is for you!
[07:08] Sensei
    Th-Thanks.
[07:13] Hio
    Use it when you turn into a baby.
[07:18] Sensei
    I'll be okay without you around now, Hio-tan.
[07:20] Fu-girl
    Sensei-chan, this is for you.
[07:23] Hio
    My digitizer pen.
[07:26] Fu-girl
    I made that cap.
[07:28] ---
    I couldn't think of what might be
    useful when you're an assistant.
[07:33] Sensei
    You knew?
[07:37] Sensei
    Yeah, it's true.
[07:39] Kameko
    Good luck.
[07:40] Sensei
    Thanks.
[07:45] Sensei
    Th-That's...
[07:47] Sensei
    Night Panda Volume 4!
    I've been looking for that.
SIGN    Night Panda 4 Sugawara Okina Breeding is Justice!
SIGN    It sold out right away, and they never made more copies.
SIGN    They call it a manga world heritage.
SIGN    Have I ever told you about it?
[07:59] Hio
    Wow, Sommelier-kun.
[08:03] Kameko
    It was brief, but it was fun.
[08:11] Umio
    Sensei,
[08:14] ---
    I have a request.
[08:21] Umio
    If you ever make your debut,
    please make me your assistant.
[08:29] Sensei
    You're hasty as usual.
[08:31] Sensei
    But I'm happy.
[08:33] Sensei
    I'd like for you to.
[08:34] Umio
    Yes, please.
[08:39] Hio
    Sensei-chan, don't worry about us.
[08:41] Hio
    Just make a big debut and
    become a star manga artist.
[08:45] Fu-girl
    I'll learn how to make pops.
[08:47] Fu-girl
    Even though I won't be as good as you.
[08:50] Kameko
    You have to come visit sometimes.
[08:52] All
    We'll be fine without you.
    So don't worry, just find your future.
[09:01] Umio
    Sensei-san, the room's so
    empty now that you're gone.
[09:07] Umio
    But I'll get used to it.
[09:10] Umio
    So don't worry, Sensei-san.
[09:14] Sensei
    W-Wait a second!
[09:16] Kantoku
    You're all making a mistake.
[09:20] All
    Kantoku.
[09:21] Kantoku
    Seriously...
[09:23] (Flashback) Sensei
    It was brief, but thank you.
[09:27] (Flashback) Kantoku
    I see.
[09:29] (Flashback) Kantoku
    I guess it can't be helped.
[09:30] (Flashback) Sensei
    Sorry.
[09:31] (Flashback) Kantoku
    But what you're saying
    is you don't have time.
[09:35] (Flashback) Sensei
    Yes.
[09:36] (Flashback) Kantoku
    Then do you want fewer shifts?
[09:38] (Flashback) Sensei
    Really? I-I can continue?
[09:41] (Flashback) Kantoku
    I'd rather you don't quit so suddenly anyway.
[09:43] (Flashback) Kantoku
    As long as you work properly, I don't mind.
[09:46] (Flashback) Kantoku
    You were fine when you weren't
    working on your Comikat manuscript.
[09:50] (Flashback) Sensei
    Yes, thank you!
[09:55] Umio
    We're done here.
[10:06] Kantoku
    Seriously.
[10:07] Kantoku
    What are you doing, putting work aside?
[10:14] Sensei
    Thank you.
[10:17] Umio
    Good for you, Sensei.
[10:20] Sensei
    Hey, Umi-kun.
[10:23] Sensei
    Can I take back what I said earlier?
[10:26] Umio
    What?
[10:27] Sensei
    Can you help me starting now, rather than
    just after I make my professional debut?
[10:33] Umio
    Sure.
[10:34] Sensei
    In fact, starting tonight.
[10:38] Sensei
    You! Wake up!
[10:41] Sensei
    We're finishing up and making copies by 7 AM.
[10:44] Umio
    Okay.
[10:47] Umio
    I want to go home.
[10:56] [SONG] Text
    Please take me home.
    I like human meat
[12:23] Umio
    You're in a good mood, Sensei-san.

    Can you tell?
[12:26] Umio
    Yes, it's obvious.
[12:28] Sensei
    It's payday today.

[13:54] Umio
    What are you being so gung-ho for?
[13:56] Umio
    We're just going to a movie.
[13:58] Umio
    Lame.
[14:00] Sensei
    No way.
[14:03] Sensei
    I have to be more rough and subtle.
[14:05] Sensei
    I can't let him know what I'm thinking.
[14:07] Sensei
    More indifferent, and with a tracksuit top?
[14:10] Sensei
    No, more rough!
[14:16] Sensei
    Tracksuit bottom!
[14:17] Sensei
    And a worn-out tee-shirt!
[14:19] Sensei
    The casual stains and moth
    holes add to my roughness.
[14:23] Sensei
    More.
[14:24] Sensei
    More!
[14:25] Sensei
    It's still not rough enough.
SIGN    More, like a suburban wife with a husband living away for work.
[14:27] [SONG] Text
    This is Sensei's perception.
    It does not reflect the staff's understanding.
SIGN    Like a reclusive hermit Not in Education, Employment or Training.
[14:37] God
    Do you seek roughness?
[14:40] Sensei
    The God of Roughness!
[14:42] Sensei
    You shall have!
[14:45] Sensei
    I've got some ideas.
[14:48] Sensei
    I'll have gyoza and ramen the night before.
[14:51] Sensei
    And I should have some
    legendary stamina food.
[14:54] Sensei
    All right, I'm getting rough.
[14:57] Sensei
    I won't take a bath, either.
[14:59] Sensei
    And I'll have ramen and
    gyoza that morning, too.
[15:01] Sensei
    The back fat that gets on my hair
    will subtly bring out my roughness.
[15:06] Sensei
    I'm not done yet.
[15:07] Sensei
    Rougher.
[15:09] Sensei
    Aye, I'll look even rougher
    if it's torn a bit.
[15:13] Sensei
    Cast off!
[15:15] Sensei
    I'll have more roughness points*
    if I'm not wearing a bottom.
[15:18] Sensei
    Take it off!
[15:21] Sensei
    Sandals on my feet, of course.
[15:22] Sensei
    They don't match, which is even better.
[15:28] God
    Impressive roughness.

    I have nothing left to teach you.

    Hello, Hio-tan?
[16:29] Hio
    What's up, Sensei-chan?
[16:31] Sensei
    Well, I don't have anything
    to wear out on my day off.
[16:34] Sensei
    I wanted you to help me.
[16:35] Hio
    Oh, I see.
[16:37] Hio
    But my sister picks out all my clothes.
[16:42] Sensei
    Oh, really?
[16:44] Hio
    Umi-chan said you're going
    to the movies tomorrow.
[16:47] Sensei
    Th-That's not what it's about.
[16:49] Hio
    Okay, hang on. I'll be right there.
[16:55] Hio
    We're here.
[16:56] Fu-girl
    Good evening.
[16:57] Kameko
    We're here to hang out.
[16:58] Sensei
    You brought them, too?
[17:00] Hio
    I thought it'd be better with more of us.
SIGN    Meeting! What does a guy want?
[17:05] Hio
    Let's begin, then.
[17:06] Sensei
    Wh-What is this?
[17:08] Hio
    Sensei-chan has dangerously low girl power.
[17:11] Hio
    At this rate, both parties could be at risk.
[17:15] Hio
    I suggest we discuss this carefully.
[17:18] Sensei
    Stop acting like Tsumorin!
[17:21] Fu-girl
    Speaking of which, Tsumorin probably
    likes this stuff. Where is she?
[17:24] Hio
    She seemed busy. She couldn't come.
[17:27] Hio
    Let us begin.
[17:29] Hio
    What does a guy want in a girl?
[17:32] Hio
    Fuga-chan.
[17:34] Fu-girl
    Me?

    Um...
SIGN    Legendary Jugs Boobs! Boobs! Boobs!
SIGN    Big boobs, maybe?
[17:47] Kameko
    Meeting adjourned.
[17:48] Sensei
    All right, go home.
[17:51] Hio
    Wh-What's wrong, everyone?
[17:52] Kameko
    You wouldn't understand
    this absolute hopelessness.
[17:57] Fu-girl
    You're right.
[17:58] Sensei
    No kidding.
[18:00] Fu-girl
    That's not true.
[18:02] Kameko
    You have more than average.
[18:04] Sensei
    I do?
[18:05] Kameko
    You know those people who don't
    notice what assets they have?
[18:09] Fu-girl
    Yeah.
[18:09] Fu-girl
    They don't even realize they're
    hurting people with their words.
[18:13] Sensei
    No, no.
[18:14] Sensei
    Talk about something else. Something else!
[18:17] Hio
    Be a guy.
[18:19] Hio
    That's how you understand a guy's feelings.
[18:21] Sensei
    B-Be a guy? But...
[18:24] Hio
    I have a plan prepared.
[18:27] Hio
    Think about a male character from a manga.
SIGN    Lump! Men's Private School
[18:29] Sensei
    From a manga? I think I could do that.
[18:36] Fu-girl
    She's a man.
[18:37] Kameko
    She's a man.
[18:39] Hio
    Man, as in manly man.
SIGN    Man
[18:43] Hio
    Now, Sensei,
[18:46] ---
    as a guy, what do you look for in a girl?
[18:50] Hio
    She's so close.
[18:52] Hio
    She actually looks like a guy
    when I look at her like this.
[18:56] Sensei
    I've never started at a
    girl like this before.
[19:00] Sensei
    I guess it comes down to boobs!
[19:07] Fu-girl
    Fine, fine, we're back to boobs.
[19:10] Kameko
    We're done.
[19:15] Sensei
    Kame-chan, you do indeed have small
    boobs, and you're dressed like a boy.
[19:20] Sensei
    But that actually brings out
    a rodent-like adorableness.
[19:24] Sensei
    And that messy hair...
    I want to do things to it.
[19:29] Sensei
    Kame-chan, do you know what "turtle"
    meant during the Meiji era?
[19:36] Kameko
    Wh-What's this?
[19:38] Kameko
    That's what they used to
    call western dog breeds.
[19:41] Kameko
    This is your destiny.
[19:45] Kameko
    There, there, see how you
    howl when I stroke you here?
[19:54] Kameko
    Fuga-chan.
[19:57] Kameko
    Your tiny body, your thin limbs,
    your small bottom.
[20:02] Kameko
    Let's go to my room and do
    nice things to each other.
[20:08] Kameko
    I still don't understand a guy's feelings.
[20:12] Kameko
    What should I do?
[20:13] Hio
    Fine, last resort.
[20:16] Hio
    Let's ask a guy.
[20:21] Umio
    What was it that you wanted?
[20:23] Hio
    Just come.
[20:25] Hio
    Right this way.
[20:29] Hio
    Maid Sensei-chan.
[20:32] Sensei
    Umi-kun.
[20:34] Umio
    What's with the outfit?
[20:35] Fu-girl
    That's not all.
[20:36] Kameko
    We're not finished yet.

[20:50] Hio
    So, which Sensei do you like?
[20:54] Sensei
    You never told me it was Umi-kun.
[20:57] Hio
    But now we'll know what guys want.
    What Umi-chan wants.
[21:02] Hio
    Go ahead.
[21:08] Umio
    Why?
[21:10] Umio
    Why aren't you wearing your glasses?
[21:13] Umio
    Do you think your glasses are a drawback?
[21:15] Umio
    You believe that urban legend that you can't
    be a heroine if you wear glasses, don't you?
[21:19] Umio
    It's nonsense!
[21:22] Umio
    The thicker the lenses,
    the thicker the shield.
[21:24] Umio
    The longer the legs, the longer the sword.
[21:26] Umio
    A sturdy frame is your armor.
[21:28] Umio
    Glasses are your offense and your defense!
    Your heavy-duty equipment!
[21:32] Fu-girl
    Umio-kun has a glasses fetish.
[21:32] Umio
    Nay, not only your equip, your stats.
    Your abilities. Your materials!
[21:34] Hio
    I never knew.
[21:34] Umio
    The greats of the world know this to be true!
[21:41] Sensei
