***SIGN*** Nodoka Ranch - Egg Shop
***SIGN*** At this ranch, which opened in 20XX, they raise free-range chickens, a rarity in Japan.
The chickens wander freely through a large space, which makes them physically stronger,
healthier, and more resistant to disease. Word has spread far and wide of the eggs
they lay being so rich and jelly-like inside that they can be picked up with chopsticks.
**[00:12] Mokotaro**
Today, we're at the Nodoka Ranch
egg shop in Hokkaido, moko!
**[00:18] Mokotaro**
I'm going to use these fresh eggs to make
my original spin on raw eggs on rice:
**[00:22] Mokotaro**
no-cook omelet rice, moko!
**[00:25] Mokotaro**
Just look at these eggs, moko!

***SIGN*** Nodoka Eggs
**[00:28] Mokotaro**
If you can pick up the yolk with chopsticks,
that's the sign of a good egg, moko!
**[00:33] Mokotaro**
First you beat the eggs,
**[00:35] Mokotaro**
then you add seasoning,
***SIGN*** Worcestershire

**[00:39] Mokotaro**
* and then you add the rice*
* and mix it all together, moko!*

**[01:09] Mokotaro**
*It's so delici-moko!*
**[01:12] Mokotaro**
* It tastes like omelet rice, but the*
* texture is like raw eggs on rice,*
**[01:15] Mako**
Ow!
**[01:16] Mokotaro**
*so it feels totally new, moko!*
**[01:18] Mokotaro**
* And you can change up the flavor*

**[03:16] Mako; internal**
*and now I cook for myself every day.*
**[03:19] Mako; internal**
* I don't have any friends*
* to go out with, either.*
**[03:22] Mako; internal**
*I'm a little nervous about eating out alone,*
**[03:27] Mako; internal**
* but it's good to experience*
* this kind of stuff, right?*
**[03:30] Mako; internal**
*Lend my timid self your strength,*
**[03:33] Mako; internal**
*O Mokotaro who lives within my heart!*
***SIGN*** Open
**[03:39] Mako; internal**
* This place is hard to walk into alone.*
* I'll try somewhere else.*
**[03:45] staff; 20s; male**
Party of two, this way, please!
**[03:47] Mako; internal**
*Not this place. Too many people.*
**[03:52] Mako**
The sauced katsudon looks delicious!
**[03:55] customer; male**
The food was great!
**[03:56] Kurea's mom**
Thank you for coming!
**[04:01] Kurea's mom**
Oh, I'm so sorry. We've sold out
of the sauced katsudon for today.
**[04:07] Mako**
N-No, I'm not ordering!
I was just looking! That's all!
**[04:09] Mako**
I-I'll leave now.
**[04:12] Kurea's mom**
O-Oh...
**[04:20] Mako**
In the end, I couldn't manage it.
**[04:23] Mako**
And after I called on the
power of Mokotaro, too!
**[04:26] Mako**
The Mokotaro inside me is just too weak.
**[04:32] Mako**
I know that all I have to do is go
into a shop like normal, but...
**[04:38] Mako; internal**
*When did I become this way?*
**[04:42] Mako; internal**
*In elementary school, I had lots of friends,*
**[04:45] Mako; internal**
* and every day was one new*
* experience after another.*
**[04:49] Mako; internal**
* But as I grew older, I got scared of*
* trying new things and failing at them.*
**[04:56] Mako; internal**
*I didn't build any strong relationships.*
**[04:59] Mako; internal**
* I just lived quietly, trying to*
* preserve the way things were.*
**[05:03] Mako; internal**
*Well, it's not as if I dislike uneventful days.*
**[05:17] professor; female**
That concludes today's lecture.
**[05:19] professor; female**
Everyone, make sure you review this section.
**[05:23] Mako; internal**
*I have a free period before my next lecture.*
**[05:25] Mako; internal**
*Where should I go to kill time?*
**[05:28] staff**
I've told you before, you need
four members to form a club.

**[05:33] staff**
This club you want to create...
The Food Culture Research Club, was it?
**[05:37] staff**
I already rejected your application
once because you only have three.
**[05:41] Shinon**
But we just can't find anyone else!
Why can't three be enough?
**[05:46] staff**
Because that's the rule.
**[05:49] Shinon**
But we're really good friends!
**[05:52] staff**
That's not relevant.
**[05:55] Shinon**
Well, it's not as though
we came without a plan B.
**[06:00] Shinon**
Hey, Tsutsuji! Give the clerk
the you-know-what!
**[06:03] Tsutsuji**
Roger that.
**[06:05] Tsutsuji**
This is for you.
**[06:07] Tsutsuji**
Please accept it.
**[06:09] staff**
What is it?
***SIGN*** Bribe
**[06:11] staff**
What?
**[06:12] Shinon**
Well, I figured actually giving
you money wouldn't go down well,
**[06:15] Shinon**
so we put gold-colored origami paper inside.
**[06:17] Shinon**
We hope you'll accept it.
**[06:19] staff**
No way.
**[06:20] Shinon**
What? Could it be that you
prefer the holographic type?
**[06:22] staff**
That's not the problem here.
**[06:24] staff**
Now, hurry up and go away.
**[06:26] Shinon**
What is this?! What *is* this?!
**[06:28] Shinon**
You mean you're fine with us not
experiencing a fun club life?!
**[06:32] staff**
Yes.
**[06:32] Shion**
You're telling us to just attend our
classes and study properly? Is that it?
**[06:38] staff**
You should do that, yes.
**[06:39] Shion**
In that case, please just let us create a
three-person club to give ourselves a breather!
**[06:44] staff**
I told you, I can't.
**[06:47] Shinon**
If I could have one wish...
**[06:49] Shinon**
If I could have one wish,
it'd be that when I opened my eyes,
**[06:53] Shinon**
I'd find myself in a world where the
clerk before me had a generous heart!
**[06:58] Shinon**
Peek.
**[06:58] staff**
I already told you, no.
**[07:06] Shinon**
It didn't work.
**[07:07] Tsutsuji**
I think she just needed one more push.
**[07:10] Kurea**
No, she was nowhere near giving in.
**[07:12] Kurea**
Well, let's set the club thing aside for now.
It's almost time for lunch.
**[07:17] Kurea**
Let's go eat our bento.
**[07:18] Tsutsuji**
Yes, let's do that.
**[07:24] Mako; internal**
* I woke up early to make*
* myself this soboro bento.*
**[07:27] Mako**
Time to eat.
**[07:29] Kurea**
So what are we going to do about the club?
**[07:32] Shinon**
Good question.
**[07:34] Shinon**
We asked everyone we know already,
and they all turned us down.
**[07:40] Shinon**
Maybe we should start passing out flyers.
**[07:44] Mako**
This dashimaki omelet turned out well, too!
**[07:46] Mako**
Gold star, gold star...
**[07:57] Mako; internal**
*That girl over there...*
**[07:58] Mako; internal**
*is totally glaring in my direction!*
**[08:01] Mako; internal**
*What? What is it? Did I do something wrong?*
**[08:04] Mako; internal**
*My clothes... aren't particularly unusual.*
**[08:07] Mako; internal**
*Is it the dashimaki omelet?*
**[08:09] Mako; internal**
*No, she can't possibly be looking at me.*
**[08:12] Mako; internal**
*I'm just being overly self-conscious.*
**[08:14] Mako; internal**
* Wait, she's not just looking...*
* She's coming closer?!*
**[08:18] Mako; internal**
*What?! What is it?!*
**[08:24] Shinon**
Could you be Makocchi?
**[08:26] Mako**
What? H-How did you acquire
my personal information?
**[08:30] Mako**
Who are you?
**[08:31] Kurea**
Shinon, do you know her?
**[08:33] Shinon**
Yeah! I'm certain I know her!
**[08:35] Mako; internal**
*More people I don't know!*
**[08:36] Shinon**
Come on! It's me! We were in
elementary school together.
**[08:41] Mako**
Elementary school?
**[08:44] (Flashback) young Mako**
Oshinko, let's play!
**[08:46] (Flashback) young Shinon**
Okay, Makocchi!
**[08:48] Mako**
Could it be...
**[08:50] Shinon**
You remember me?
**[08:51] Shinon**
That's right! We were together in
elementary school! I'm Ogawa—
**[08:54] Mako**
Oshinko!
**[08:56] Shinon**
Huh?
**[08:58] Tsutsuji**
Oshinko?
**[08:59] Kurea**
Shinon, was that your nickname
in elementary school?
**[09:02] Shinon**
What? No, it's—
**[09:03] Mako**
Shinon Ogawa! It really is you, Oshinko!
**[09:06] Mako**
It's been so long, Oshinko!
**[09:07] Shinon**
You have it all wrong!
Okay, you don't, but please stop!
**[09:09] Shinon**
Don't call me by my old nickname!
No one knows it anymore!
**[09:15] Mako**
So we go to the same university.
I was really surprised!
**[09:19] Shinon**
Me, too!
**[09:21] Shinon**
What've you been up to lately, Makocchi?
**[09:23] Mako**
Lately? Nothing, really.
**[09:27] Mako**
What about you, Oshin—
**[09:28] Mako**
Shinon-chan?
**[09:31] Shinon**
Actually, the three of us just
went to submit an application
**[09:35] Shinon**
to create the Food Culture Research Club.
**[09:38] Shinon**
It got denied, though.
**[09:39] Tsutsuji**
Hello, I'm Tsutsuji Higa.
Pleased to make your acquaintance.
**[09:43] Mako**
R-Right.
**[09:44] Kurea**
I'm Kurea Furutachi. We haven't met before.
**[09:47] Mako**
H-Hello.
**[09:49] Mako**
Um... I'm Mako Kawai.
**[09:51] Kurea**
Nice to meet you.
**[09:53] Shinon**
That's it! The Food Culture
Research Club I mentioned before
**[09:56] Shinon**
will be approved if we
can find one more person!
**[09:59] Shinon**
Makocchi, will you join?
**[10:01] Shinon**
We'll have a club room to use
however we like! It'll be fun!
**[10:03] Mako**
U-Um, well...
**[10:08] Mako**
I wasn't really thinking about
joining any clubs, so, um...
**[10:14] Shinon**
Oh, sorry! That came out of nowhere, right?
**[10:17] Shinon**
I just got so excited over
seeing you again after so long.
**[10:20] Kurea**
We should head to our classroom.
We're cutting it close on time.
**[10:24] Shinon**
Okay!
**[10:25] Shinon**
What's your next class, Makocchi?
**[10:27] Mako**
I don't have a class next period.
**[10:30] Shinon**
Oh, okay.
**[10:31] Shinon**
See you later!
**[10:41] Mako**
I'm back.
**[10:44] Mako**
Not that there's anyone here to reply.
**[10:47] Mako**
I never imagined Oshin—
**[10:49] Mako**
Shinon-chan would be at
the same university as me.
**[10:55] Mako; internal**
* She seemed just as energetic*
* as she was back then.*
**[10:58] Mako; internal**
* I was surprised at first, but I didn't*
* act suspiciously or anything, right?*
**[11:05] Mako; internal**
* I was in such a panic, I might*
* have said something weird.*
***SIGN*** What have I done?
***SIGN*** I called her by her elementary school nickname
without even thinking.
***SIGN*** She invited me to join her club,
***SIGN*** and I turned her down really clumsily.
***SIGN*** There must have been a better way,
but my fear of new things
***SIGN*** messed everything up.
***SIGN*** She totally hates me now!
***SIGN*** I want to apologize,
but I forgot to ask for her contact info...
***SIGN*** And now I have to go to my part-time job
while I'm down in the dumps...

Good work, Mako-chan.
You can wrap up for the day.
**[11:50] Mako**
Okay.
***SIGN*** Okay
**[11:52] Mako**
Working tired me out.
I'll buy food and go home.
**[12:11] Mako; internal**
* That sauced katsudon*
* really does look delicious.*
**[12:15] Mokotaro**
*Good!*
**[12:17] Kurea**
Huh? Is that you, Kawai-san?
**[12:23] Mako**
U-Um, you're...
**[12:26] Kurea**
Furutachi.
**[12:27] Mako**
Furutachi-san. U-Um, why are you here?
**[12:32] Kurea**
Why? Because my mom runs this place.
**[12:36] Mako**
What? Really?
**[12:37] Kurea**
I'm helping out by working part-time.
**[12:40] Kurea**
We ran out of seasonings, so I just
came back from the supermarket.
**[12:45] Kurea**
Our place has yummy food.
You should come eat some!
**[12:48] Mako**
No, I, um...
**[12:50] Kurea**
Yeah?
**[12:51] Mako; internal**
* This is bad! My fear of new*
* things is kicking in again.*
**[12:55] Mako; internal**
*She's being nice and inviting me in!*
**[12:57] Mako; internal**
*But I'm scared of messing things up.*
**[13:08] Mako**
I-I'll come in and eat!
**[13:16] Kurea's mom; grandpa**
Welcome!
**[13:22] Kurea**
Sit wherever you like.
**[13:24] Mako**
O-Okay.
**[13:29] Kurea's mom**
Oh! Are you a friend of Kurea's?
**[13:32] Kurea**
Yeah. She's from university.
**[13:34] Kurea's mom**
Thank you for looking out for Kurea.
**[13:37] Mako**
Oh, no, um... She looks out for me.
**[13:41] Kurea's mom**
Oh, have we met somewhere before?
**[13:44] Mako**
I-I think you must be mistaken.
**[13:47] Kurea's mom**
Oh, really?
**[13:49] Kurea's mom**
Let me know when you're ready to order.
**[13:52] Mako**
Thank you.
**[13:54] customer A**
Ma'am, one sauced katsudon!
**[13:56] Kurea's mom**
Coming!
**[13:59] Kurea's mom**
We have onsen eggs and sunny-side-up
eggs as toppings. Which would you like?
**[14:03] customer A**
I'll have an onsen egg.
**[14:04] Kurea's mom**
Sure.
**[14:06] Mako; internal**
*I should have given her my order just now.*
**[14:09] Mako; internal**
* And Furutachi-san... went to the*
* other side of the kitchen, I guess.*
**[14:13] customer B**
Two sauced katsudon over here, too, please!
**[14:15] Kurea's mom**
Coming up!
**[14:16] customer C**
One sauced katsudon for us, too.
**[14:18] Kurea's mom**
Of course!
**[14:19] Mako; internal**
*The sauced katsudon is really popular.*
**[14:22] Mako; internal**
* That's right. Last time,*
* she said they'd sold out.*
**[14:25] Mako; internal**
* Since I managed to make*
* it into the restaurant,*
**[14:28] Mako; internal**
*I really want to eat it before I go.*
**[14:30] Mako; internal**
*Here I go!*
**[14:37] Kurea's mom**
Have you decided?
**[14:38] Mako**
Y-Yes.
**[14:39] Mako**
Um, one s-s-s...
**[14:42] Mako**
One sauced katsudon, please!
**[14:45] Kurea's mom**
I'm sorry. We just ran out.
**[14:53] Kurea**
Mom, Grandpa's calling for you in the kitchen.
**[14:56] Kurea**
Did something happen?
**[14:58] Kurea's mom**
Your friend ordered a sauced katsudon,
but we just ran out.
**[15:02] Kurea**
Oh, I could make the sauced katsudon
I was saving for my staff meal.
**[15:06] Kurea**
Want to have that?
**[15:07] Mako**
Y-You don't mind?
**[15:09] Kurea**
You can choose onsen egg or
sunny-side-up egg for the topping.
**[15:13] Mako**
Th-Then I'll have an onsen egg.

After we left you today,
Shinon... Or was it Oshinko?
**[17:29] Mako**
Sh-Shinon-chan is fine.
**[17:31] Kurea**
Well, after that, Shinon just
kept talking about you.
**[17:35] Kurea**
She was making a fuss because she forgot
to ask for a way to contact you.
**[17:39] (Flashback) Shinon**
Please, just give me one more chance!
**[17:42] Mako**
Really? I was wishing that I'd
gotten her contact info, too.
**[17:46] Kurea**
Oh, want me to tell you, then?
**[17:49] Mako**
Y-Yes, please!
**[17:51] Kurea**
What was Shinon like in elementary school?
**[17:55] Mako**
Well...
**[17:57] Mako**
She always seemed to be running around.
**[18:00] (Flashback) young Shinon**
You're too slow, Makocchi!
**[18:02] (Flashback) young Shinon**
Oh! Dragonfly!
**[18:05] (Flashback) young Mako**
W-Wait for me!
**[18:09] Kurea**
So she's been like that
since she was a kid, huh?
**[18:20] Mako**
Th-Thanks for today.
The sauced katsudon was really good.
**[18:25] Kurea**
Really? I'm glad you liked it!
**[18:32] Mako**
Um, I'll be going, then.
**[18:34] Kurea**
Sure. Take care.

Oh...
**[18:55] Mako**
Right! See you there.
**[19:02] Mako**
That really was delicious. I'm glad I went in.
**[19:07] Mako; internal**
*Furutachi-san was nice.*
**[19:09] Mako; internal**
* And Oshinko said she wanted*
* my contact info, too.*
**[19:13] Mako; internal**
* I thought she'd hate me.*
* Maybe I was worrying too much.*
**[19:17] Mako; internal**
*And Furutachi-san said she'd see me on campus.*
**[19:25] Mako; internal**
* Oshinko said she was starting a*

**[19:30] Mako; internal**
* I wonder if I'd be able to eat and cook*

**[19:34] Mako; internal**
* I wonder if I'd be able to*

**[19:37] Mako; internal**
*like I used to in elementary school.*
***SIGN*** Shinon
***SIGN*** Shinon-chan? It's Mako.
Furutachi-san gave me your contact info.
***SIGN*** Whoa! Makocchi!
I wanted to see you again!
***SIGN*** Shinon-chan? It's Mako.
Furutachi-san gave me your contact info.
***SIGN*** Whoa! Makocchi!
I wanted to see you again!
***SIGN*** I'm sorry about today.
***SIGN*** Huh? What for?
I don't really get it, but don't worry about it!
**[19:55] Mako**
I like quiet days, but just a little change...
***SIGN*** About the club you mentioned today...
Is it okay if I join?
**[20:01] Mako**
should be fine, right?
**[21:39] Shinon**
'Sup, Makocchi?
**[21:42] Mako**
That scared me! It's just you, Shinon-chan.
**[21:45] Shinon**
Guess what, Makocchi?
**[21:47] Shinon**
Thanks to you, our club
application was approved!
**[21:51] Tsutsuji**
And apparently, we're already
allowed to use the club room.
**[21:55] Tsutsuji**
Would you like to come with us?
**[21:56] Mako**
Y-You don't mind?
**[21:59] Kurea**
Of course not! You're a member, same as us.
**[22:02] Shinon**
Right, then! Everyone, to the club room!
**[22:13] Shinon**
Oh, I can see it! I can see it!
**[22:39] Shinon**
It's kinda far from the main buildings, but
it's nice with all the greenery around, right?
**[22:43] Kurea**
Which part is our club room in?
**[22:46] Tsutsuji**
First floor, left corner.
**[22:48] Mako; internal**
*This is where the club room is?*
**[22:50] Mako; internal**
*Will we cook and eat together here?*
**[22:55] Mako; internal**
* Whatever the case, I'm going to get*
* to eat lots of delicious food!*
**[22:59] Shinon**
All right! Now we can spend our university
lives lazing around the club room!
**[23:05] Mako**
Huh?
**[23:06] Mako**
Lazing around?
**[23:08] Mako**
What exactly does the Food
Culture Research Club do?
**[23:10] Shinon**
Huh? Didn't I tell you?
**[23:13] Shinon**
The whole Food Culture Research
Club thing is just a front.
**[23:18] Mako**
What?
**[23:19] Shinon**
I wanted a club room on campus where we could
just relax, so I tried to form this club.
**[23:24] Shinon**
But when I told the truth,
they wouldn't approve our application,
**[23:27] Shinon**
so I ended up randomly naming it
the Food Culture Research Club.
***SIGN*** Application to Form a Student Group

**[23:31] Mako**
Then... what about food?
**[23:34] Shinon**
Well, if you get hungry, you can eat.
**[23:38] Shinon**
At any rate, Makocchi...
**[23:42] Shinon**
Welcome to the Food Culture Research Club!
**[23:54] Shinon**
Welcome!
**[23:57] Tsutsuji**
Yay!

**[00:00] Mako**
Lazing around? The name is just a front?
**[00:03] Mako**
If we're not going to be cooking or anything,
then what's this club for?
**[00:08] Shinon**
Makocchi... I'm glad you asked.
**[00:12] Shinon**
This club's true purpose is...
**[00:15] Mako**
Is...?
**[00:17] Shinon**
...something that we're all
going to look for together!
**[00:20] Mako**
Wha...
**[00:21] Shinon**
But never mind that.
Let's check out the club room!
**[00:25] Tsutsuji**
Sure...
**[00:29] Shinon**
This place looks pretty deserted.
**[00:31] Tsutsuji**
Then we can do what we like without
worrying about bothering anyone.
**[00:35] Tsutsuji**
That's good, right?
**[00:38] Shinon**
This club room has running water.
**[00:41] Tsutsuji**
And there's a table over there.
**[00:44] Shinon**
Nice!
**[00:45] Kurea**
Sorry, Kawai-san.
**[00:47] Kurea**
Did we get your hopes up about cooking here?
**[00:50] Mako**
Huh? Oh, not really... I just heard
"Food Culture Research Club"
**[00:54] Mako**
and jumped to conclusions about the name.
**[00:56] Kurea**
Oh. Are you good at cooking?
**[00:58] Mako**
N-No, I wouldn't say I'm good at it, exactly...
**[01:00] Mako**
I cook for myself, but it's nothing special.
**[01:03] Kurea**
Cooking for yourself is already special!
**[01:05] Kurea**
I mean, I almost never cook
outside of work, myself.
**[01:08] Mako**
Th-Thanks.
**[01:10] Shinon**
Makocchi! Kurea! Hurry up!
**[01:12] Kurea**
Yeah, okay!
**[01:14] Kurea**
Those two are pretty carefree, huh?
**[01:16] Kurea**
We should just take it easy, too. Right?
**[01:19] Mako**
Yeah.
**[01:21] Shinon**
This is it! Our club room,
soon to be our castle!
**[01:24] Shinon**
Now, everyone... It's time to open the
door to the club room of our dreams!
**[01:34] Mako**
So much dust!
**[01:36] Kurea**
How long has this room been out of use?
**[01:41] Tsutsuji**
It's full of junk,
and there's a ton of cobwebs.
**[01:46] Shinon**
Well, everyone...
**[01:49] Shinon**
It would appear that our
club's true purpose...
**[01:53] Shinon**
is to give this club room
a grand cleaning tomorrow!
**[01:57] Kurea**
So we'll have no purpose after tomorrow?
***SIGN*** Episode 2 "I Might Want to Cook"
**[03:34] Mako; internal**
*I'm so sleepy after all those classes...*
**[03:38] Tsutsji**
Makocchi.
**[03:44] Mako**
Are you okay?!
**[03:45] Tsutsuji**
I'm sorry for startling you.
**[03:48] Tsutsuji**
Physically, I'm no match for you.
**[03:50] Mako**
Physically?
**[03:51] Mako**
But you're okay?
**[03:53] Tsutsuji**
I'm just fine.
**[03:55] Tsutsuji**
My backpack acted as a cushion,
and my forehead doesn't hurt.
**[03:59] Mako**
I-I'm glad to hear that.
**[04:01] Tsutsuji**
If you're finished with your classes,
**[04:03] Tsutsuji**
would you like to come
to the club room with me?
**[04:05] Mako**
H-Huh? Sure.
**[04:08] Mako; internal**
* She's Oshinko's friend...*
* Tsutsuji Higa-chan, right?*
**[04:13] Mako; internal**
*I forget people's names so quickly.*
**[04:16] Mako; internal**
*I need an easy-to-remember nickname.*
**[04:19] Mako; internal**
*Tsutsuji Higa... Tsutsuji Higa...*

*Baaa.*
***SIGN*** Baaa
**[04:26] Tsutsuji**
Is something wrong?
**[04:27] Mako**
Huh? N-No, nothing at all.
**[04:34] Shinon**
Hey! 'Sup, Makocchi! Tsutsuji!
**[04:37] Mako**
Oh, you're already here!
**[04:39] Shinon**
Yeah. Did you bring any cleaning supplies?
**[04:42] Mako**
Now that you mention it, I didn't.
**[04:44] Tsutsuji**
Neither did I.
**[04:46] Shinon**
I expected that, so...
**[04:48] Shinon**
I ambushed the other clubs
and borrowed some!
**[04:51] Mako**
Shinon-chan, you really know
how to talk to people.
**[04:54] Kurea**
First, let's carry out everything
that's in the room.
**[04:57] Shinon**
Right!
**[05:07] Shinon**
Tsutsuji, Tsutsuji!
**[05:09] Shinon**
There was a plastic bottle cap on the ground.
**[05:11] Shinon**
And it's the first pitch!
**[05:13] Shinon**
She winds up and throws!
**[05:20] Shinon**
And that's the first out! The winner is me!
**[05:23] Shinon**
Tsutsuji-kun, you can use a dustpan
for the next one if you want.
**[05:28] Shinon**
You'll never hit anything with
that skinny broom handle.
**[05:31] Tsutsuji**
Well, if you say so.
**[05:33] Tsutsuji**
Don't come crying to me later when you lose.
**[05:50] Kurea**
Are you two up to something?
**[05:52] Shinon**
No, nothing at all.
**[05:54] Shinon**
There's no reason for us to
be up to anything, is there?
**[05:58] Kurea**
Oh? You've been goofing off
for a while now, though.
**[06:02] Kurea**
Come on, get cleaning.
**[06:13] Shinon**
Don't worry, Makocchi!
**[06:14] Shinon**
I'm going to destroy the
evidence now. Just watch!
**[06:17] Mako**
Huh?
**[06:26] Shinon**
Ugh, the ceiling's dirty, too!
I wonder if I can reach it.
**[06:30] Shinon**
I can't quite make it. Just a little farther!
**[06:33] Shinon**
Let's see...
**[06:51] Kurea**
Get back to cleaning.
**[06:54] Shinon**
Yes, ma'am.
**[07:04] Kurea**
There! I think the cleaning's all done now.
**[07:08] Shinon**
Yay! Now we can roll around on the floor!
**[07:10] Tsutsuji**
I think I'll just live here now.
**[07:12] Kurea**
In a room with nothing in it?
**[07:15] Shinon**
Come on. We can bring all that stuff later.
**[07:18] Mako**
Bring stuff? Like what?
**[07:21] Shinon**
Stuff you like, maybe?
**[07:25] Shinon**
Well, it's getting late. Let's call it a day.
**[07:28] Shinon**
Next time we come, let's all
bring something we like.
**[07:31] Shinon**
Oh! And I'll start a group chat
so we can keep in touch.
**[07:34] Kurea**
Okay.
**[07:38] Mokotaro**
*This pilaf is the best, moko!*
**[07:41] Mako**
Pilaf, huh? I'd love to
make that with the club.
**[07:46] Mako**
But I don't think I'll be able to cook there.
**[07:48] Mako**
What should I bring for the club room?
**[07:50] Mokotaro**
If you want to make it,
you should just tell everyone!
**[07:54] Mako**
Huh?
**[07:55] Mako**
M-Mokotaro?!
**[07:58] Mako**
W-Well... that's easier said than done.
**[08:02] Mokotaro**
That's true...
**[08:03] Mokotaro**
If I put myself forward and mess
everything up, what'll I do, moko?
**[08:07] Mako**
There's another Mokotaro!
**[08:09] Mokotaro**
If I'm only going to cause trouble for people,
**[08:12] Mokotaro**
maybe I should just stay quiet
in the background, like a plant.
**[08:16] Mako**
* That negative attitude...*
* That's not the real Mokotaro, is it?*
**[08:22] Mako as Mokotaro**
Sitting in the corner always puts me at ease.
**[08:25] Mako as Mokotaro**
I wanna put down roots here
and become a bean sprout.

It was all a dream.
**[08:42] Mako**
What kind of dream was that?
**[08:51] Mako**
We have a table!
**[08:53] Shinon**
Kurea brought it for us!
**[08:56] Kurea**
It's just something we had
collecting dust in our storage shed.
**[08:59] Mako**
The four of us can all sit here now.
**[09:01] Kurea**
What did you bring, Shinon?
**[09:03] Shinon**
Well...
**[09:05] Shinon**
Ta-da! I brought a game console,
model kits, and card games!

**[09:11] Kurea**
Didn't you have anything more practical?
**[09:13] Shinon**
Now, now. We said we'd bring
stuff we liked, right?
**[09:17] Kurea**
I mean, we did say that, but first we should—
**[09:20] Mako**
Is someone at the door?
**[09:26] Mako; Shinon; Kurea**
It's huge!
**[09:32] Tsutsuji**
Thanks for opening the door for me.
**[09:34] Mako**
What's with the huge stuffed animal?
**[09:36] Tsutsuji**
No, no. This is no stuffed animal.
**[09:40] Tsutsuji**
It's a sofa that you never
leave once you sit on it.

What's the black case for?
**[09:54] Tsutsuji**
That's my ukulele.
**[09:55] Tsutsuji**
All the other rooms around here are empty,
so I figured I wouldn't bother anyone.
**[10:00] Kurea**
Really? You should play for us sometime!
**[10:03] Tsutsuji**
Of course.
**[10:05] Shinon**
What'd you bring, Makocchi?
**[10:07] Mako**
Um...
**[10:08] Mako**
I-I brought this.
**[10:10] Shinon**
Ooh, a kettle!
**[10:12] Mako**
I thought we could use it to have tea together.
**[10:15] Mako**
And...
**[10:17] Mako**
I also brought a pack of teabags
and some paper cups.
**[10:19] Mako**
Would you like some?
**[10:28] Kurea**
This is so relaxing.
**[10:30] Tsutsuji**
Drinking tea in a club room we
set up ourselves is pretty special.
**[10:35] Kurea; background**
It's so peaceful.
**[10:36] Mako; internal**
* Even if I can't cook here, hanging out*
* with the others might still be pretty fun.*
**[10:38] Shinon; background**
I ran out. Tsutsuji, another cup!
**[10:41] Tsutsuji; background**
Well, if I must.
**[10:45] staff**
Oh, sorry to interrupt your tea break.
**[10:48] clerk**
I'm here to verify your club activities.
**[10:54] Mako; Shinon**
Huh?
**[11:00] Kurea**
You're here to verify our club activities?
What exactly does that involve?
**[11:05] Shinon**
My lady, this is black tea,
if you'd like some.
**[11:08] clerk**
Thanks.
**[11:09] clerk**
It's pretty much what it sounds like.
**[11:11] clerk**
Every so often, people use made-up names
**[11:14] clerk**
to create fake clubs with no real activities.
**[11:18] clerk**
That's why we double-check every
newly formed club in person.
**[11:22] Shinon**
You don't say.
**[11:25] Shinon**
There are some real slippery
jerks out there, huh?
**[11:27] clerk**
Indeed.
**[11:28] Shinon**
Out of curiosity—just pure curiosity—
what action is taken against such people?
**[11:34] clerk**
Well, their clubs are disbanded.
**[11:36] Shinon**
Right! Of course!
**[11:37] clerk**
And so, I'll need you to show me something
representing your club activities by tomorrow.
**[11:42] clerk**
Thanks for the tea.
**[12:00] Shinon**
One problem: we're a fake club!
**[12:03] Shinon**
No one told me they'd be
coming by to verify us!
**[12:07] Shinon**
What *does* this club do?!
**[12:10] Kurea**
Uh, you're the one who started it.
**[12:12] Tsutsuji**
We wrote a bunch of stuff about
club activities on the application.
**[12:17] Shinon**
We did?
**[12:19] Tsutsuji**
Well, *you* didn't write anything,
so I filled it in.
**[12:22] Tsutsuji**
And I took a photo to refer to later.
**[12:24] Shinon**
Excellent work, Tsutsuji!
**[12:27] Kurea**
"Club activities:
**[12:28] Kurea**
We seek to deepen our understanding
of food culture through
**[12:32] Kurea**
academic research, profiling
restaurants, cooking, and so on."
**[12:36] Mako**
Cooking?
**[12:37] Kurea**
What did you mean by "academic research"?
**[12:40] Tsutsuji**
Researching food culture and putting
together a report, for example.
**[12:44] Shinon**
I don't wanna do academic research.
It sounds like effort.
**[12:47] Tsutsuji**
Could we profile your
family's restaurant, Kurea?
**[12:50] Kurea**
We need it by tomorrow, right?
I can't set things up that quickly.
**[12:54] Mako**
U-Um...
**[12:57] Mako**
I... might want to cook.
**[13:01] Tsutsuji**
Who else here can cook?
**[13:03] Tsutsuji**
I can't at all.
**[13:07] Kurea**
Sure, I don't mind cooking. I'll join you.
**[13:11] Mako**
Just so you know, it's not like
I'm actually good or anything.
**[13:14] Kurea**
Don't worry! It'll be fine!
**[13:16] Kurea**
We're not aiming for restaurant quality here.
Let's just have fun together.
**[13:21] Shinon**
If we need something by tomorrow,
then cooking *is* the quickest option.
**[13:25] Shinon**
Then it's decided! We'll cook!
**[13:28] Tsutsuji**
But what'll we do for equipment?
**[13:31] Shinon**
What? This university doesn't
have any home ec. classrooms?
**[13:34] Tsutsuji**
Nope.
**[13:35] Mako**
I don't think we can cook
much with just a kettle.
**[13:40] Shinon**
All right! I'll figure something
out by tomorrow!
**[13:46] Kurea**
Figure something out?
**[13:47] Kurea**
Do you have equipment already?
Or money to buy some?
**[13:50] Shinon**
I sure don't.
**[13:51] Kurea**
But you do have some kind of idea, right?
**[13:54] Shinon**
I sure don't!
**[13:57] Shinon**
Just leave it to me! For today,
you are dismissed!
**[14:12] Mako**
Neither of them are picking up?
**[14:14] Kurea**
No.
**[14:15] Mako**
I see.
**[14:16] Mako**
I brought an apron and a frying
pan from my place, but...
**[14:20] Kurea**
You can't use a frying pan
without a heat source.
**[14:24] Kurea**
And all we have right now is a kettle.
**[14:27] Kurea**
The most we can make with
hot water is instant noodles.
**[14:31] Mako**
What about eggs?
**[14:33] Mako**
We might be able to make onsen eggs
if we put them in hot water.
**[14:36] Mako**
But will she really consider instant noodles
with onsen eggs to be something we cooked?
**[14:42] Kurea**
Yeah... Maybe not.

* I didn't notice you'd called earlier.*
**[14:55] Shinon**
*You see...*
**[14:56] Shinon**
We've gotten our hands
on some cooking equipment!
**[14:58] Mako**
*What? Really?*
**[14:59] Shinon**
Really, for reals!
**[15:01] Shinon**
I ambushed some other
clubs and research teams,
**[15:03] Shinon**
and they gave me stuff they weren't using!
**[15:05] Mako**
* Wow! You even have a fridge*
* and a portable stove.*
**[15:08] Mako**
*You've got everything!*

* Oh, and if you could pick up some*
* energy drinks, too, please.*
**[15:16] Mako**
A-All right.
**[15:18] Kurea**
Looks like we don't have to make do
with instant noodles anymore.
**[15:22] Mako**
Y-Yeah.
**[15:23] Kurea**
But what *should* we make?
**[15:26] Kurea**
Something safe, like curry?
**[15:28] Mako**
U-Um...
**[15:31] Mako**
I'd like to make the dish in this video.
**[15:34] Kurea**
Let's see...
**[15:38] Kurea**
Yeah, looks good! Let's make that!
**[15:44] Mako**
You really did find all kinds of things.
**[15:46] Tsutsuji**
We've been working very hard.
**[15:49] Kurea**
That's all well and good,
but what about all this bric-a-brac?
**[15:53] Shinon**
They didn't need it, so why not?
**[15:55] Kurea**
Sounds like they just wanted you
to take it off their hands.
**[15:59] Mako**
In any case, we should start by
washing the pots and tableware.
**[16:03] Shinon**
Yeah, good point. You do that,
and we'll set up the furniture.
**[16:07] Kurea**
Right.
**[16:11] Kurea**
I was worried for a minute there,
but I'm glad it all worked out somehow.
**[16:15] Mako**
Yeah.
**[16:17] clerk**
Oh, hard at work, I see.
**[16:20] Shinon**
The clerk is here!
**[16:22] Shinon**
Miss Clerk, as you can see,
we're currently engaging in club activities!
**[16:26] clerk**
Right.
**[16:27] Shinon**
What do you think? Our two club
members here are washing dishes.
**[16:30] clerk**
I can see that, yes. I'll need
to check your club room, too.
**[16:36] clerk**
There's a lot more in here
than there was yesterday.
**[16:38] Shinon**
Isn't there? It's like a real club room, isn't it?
**[16:42] clerk**
What are those?
**[16:44] Shinon**
Oh, those are ingredients.
**[16:46] clerk**
You just say whatever
pops into your head, huh?
**[16:49] clerk**
You bought ingredients?
**[16:49] Shinon**
Oh, not really...
**[16:51] Mako**
Y-Yes. Just now at the supermarket.
**[16:54] Mako**
We're about to start cooking.
**[16:56] clerk**
Well, you did list cooking as a
club activity on your application.
**[17:00] clerk**
I guess we can say you're actually doing it.
**[17:04] Shinon**
All right! This means we
get to keep our club room!
**[17:09] Mako**
What a relief, huh, Shinon-chan?
**[17:12] Kurea**
I was really worried there.
Let's give it our best, Kawai-san!
**[17:12] Tsutsuji**
Bravo, bravo.
**[17:15] Shinon**
Yay!
**[17:17] clerk**
Oh, that's right.
**[17:19] clerk**
About this...
**[17:20] Mako**
The portable gas stove?
**[17:22] clerk**
We don't allow any open
flames in the club rooms.
**[17:25] girls**
What?
**[17:28] clerk**
Fire, big no.
**[17:33] clerk**
Sorry, I could have phrased that better.
**[17:36] clerk**
Make sure you cook in the space
outside your club room.
**[17:39] clerk**
It's all right to use fire out there.
**[17:42] clerk**
It's fine today because I was here,
**[17:44] clerk**
but next time, ask at the office first.
**[17:48] Mako**
Th-Thank you so much!
**[17:51] Shinon**
Will you come by later to eat with us?
**[17:53] clerk**
No, I still have work to do.
**[17:59] clerk**
Oh.
**[18:00] clerk**
Your club may be fake, but as long as
you keep up your activities, we're good.
**[18:05] Kurea**
She saw right through us.
**[18:11] Mako**
Everything's set.
**[18:13] Tsutsuji**
We'll probably just get in the way,
so we'll take dishwashing duty.
**[18:18] Shinon**
Sorry, Makocchi.
**[18:19] Mako**
Don't be. That helps a lot.
**[18:21] Tsutsuji**
It's not in exchange per se, but I'll
play the ukulele while you cook.
**[18:27] Shinon**
Oh, I like the sound of that! Let's hear it!
**[18:45] Mako**
Okay, we're all set!
**[19:08] Mako; internal**
*Dice the onion.*
**[19:11] Mako; internal**
*Slice the wieners one centimeter thick.*
**[19:14] Mako; internal**
* Add the uncooked rice,*
* chopped ingredients, seasonings,*
**[19:18] Mako; internal**
* water, and the secret ingredient,*
* apple juice, to the pan.*
**[19:23] Mako; internal**
* After it's thoroughly mixed,*
* add butter on top.*
**[19:33] Mako; internal**
* After bringing it to a boil, turn*
* the heat down to low and wait.*
**[19:48] Mako; internal**
*When it's done cooking, turn off the heat,*
**[19:51] Mako; internal**
*and add one whole Camembert cheese.*
**[19:54] Mako; internal**
* Cover it with a lid,*
* and let it steam through.*
**[19:59] Mako; internal**
* Finally, add a sprinkle of parsley*
* and an onsen egg,*
**[20:04] Mako; internal**
* and that's how you make*
* Camembert curry pilaf!*
**[20:20] Shinon**
And now...
**[20:21] everyone**
Time to eat!
**[20:29] Tsutsuji**
I'm amazed it's possible to make something
so delicious with just a single frying pan.
**[20:34] Shinon**
This curry pilaf is so good!
**[20:37] Mako; internal**
*I'm so glad they like it!*
**[20:37] Kurea**
You're right! This is delicious!
**[20:39] Kurea**
The cheese is piping hot!
**[20:42] Shinon**
You're right!
**[20:43] Shinon**
Look at that! Look how far it stretches!
**[20:47] Mako; internal**
*Thank you, Mokotaro! The food was a huge hit!*
**[20:54] Shinon**
I'm so full!
**[20:57] Tsutsuji**
An after-dinner energy drink
really hits the spot!
**[21:00] Kurea**
Oh, hey! Since we managed to
put together a bona fide club,
**[21:03] Kurea**
why don't we take a picture
to commemorate it?
**[21:06] Shinon**
Sounds good! Let's do it!
**[21:09] Kurea**
Okay, everyone! Come over here!
**[21:12] Kurea**
Kawai-san, what should we say
when we take the picture?
**[21:16] Mako**
What? You're asking me?
**[21:20] Mako**
Well, we just ate, so why don't
we say, "Thanks for the feast"?
**[21:25] Shinon**
Oh, I like that! It fits the club well!
**[21:28] Kurea**
Okay, everyone, squeeze in!
**[21:31] Kurea**
Here we go!
**[21:32] Kurea**
Ready, and...
**[21:33] everyone**
Thanks for the feast!

**[00:03] Mako**
Cooking and eating together really was fun.
**[00:06] Mako**
Maybe we should have
taken a few more photos.
**[00:12] Mako**
Ow...
**[00:16] Mako**
A message in the group chat?
It's from Shinon-chan.
**[00:20] Mako**
"Why don't we all go somewhere this weekend?"
***SIGN*** Shinon
Why don't we all go somewhere this weekend
to get to know each other better as the Food
Culture Research Club?
Shinon
It'll cost about 3,000 yen.
Everyone set the money aside, okay?
**[00:25] Mako**
"It'll cost about 3,000 yen."

**[02:09] Tsutsuji**
I'm so energy-fied.
**[02:11] Mako**
Energy-fied?
**[02:13] Mako**
Tsutsuji-chan, you really love
energy drinks, don't you?
**[02:16] Tsutsuji**
I live for ukulele and energy drinks.
**[02:20] Tsutsuji**
Oh, right. Where are we going this weekend?
**[02:23] Kurea**
No idea. I was going to ask
after Shinon got here.
**[02:27] Kurea**
Will you two be okay in terms of money?
**[02:29] Mako**
I work part-time, so 3,000 yen should be fine.
**[02:32] Tsutsuji**
Oh, where do you work?
**[02:35] Mako**
At an oinari sushi shop.
**[02:37] Kurea**
Huh? Kawai-san, you work in
food service? Just like me!
**[02:42] Mako**
I got so nervous about serving customers
at the register that I got moved to the back.
**[02:45] Mako**
So not exactly like you.
**[02:47] Kurea**
Oh... I see.
**[02:50] Kurea**
Oh, it's Shinon.
**[02:52] Kurea**
Shinon, you're late!
**[03:00] Shinon**
My money...
**[03:02] Shinon**
My money's gone!
**[03:05] Mako**
Wh-What's wrong, Shinon-chan?
**[03:07] Shinon**
My money disappeared! Help me!
**[03:10] Kurea**
Huh? What, did you spend it?
**[03:12] Shinon**
No! I lost the 5,000 yen bill
I'd stashed in my house!
**[03:18] Shinon**
Help me look for it!
**[03:21] Shinon**
At this rate, I'll be the only
one who can't come along!
**[03:25] Shinon**
This is our chance to all go out together!
**[03:27] Shinon**
I don't wanna be the only one
left out of the memories!
**[03:31] Kurea**
And what if we don't want to help?
**[03:34] Shinon**
I'll leave behind a grudge so strong
that I'll haunt your memories forever!
**[03:37] Mako**
At least haunt our dreams instead.
**[03:39] Kurea**
All right, I'll help. Just stop crying.
**[03:44] Mako**
I might be able to help, too.
**[03:46] Tsutsji**
I don't mind helping after
I finish my energy drink.
**[03:48] Shinon**
G-Guys! If you brought a box of sweets
with you, I'd be even happier!
**[03:54] Kurea**
Don't push your luck.
**[03:58] Shinon**
This way! Over here!
**[04:02] Mako; internal**
* Now that I think about it, I haven't been*
* to a friend's house since elementary school.*
**[04:07] Mako; internal**
*I'm starting to get a little nervous.*
**[04:10] Shinon**
Come in! Come in!
**[04:12] Kurea**
Thanks.
**[04:14] Mako**
Thank you for having us.
**[04:16] Tsutsuji**
You sure have a lot of stuff.
**[04:18] Kurea**
Why not toss the things you don't need?
**[04:20] Shinon**
I need all of it!
**[04:22] Mako; internal**
*So this is Oshinko's place.*
**[04:29] Mako**
Wh-What is that?
**[04:31] Shinon**
Oh, that's a jack-in-the-box
I bought recently.
**[04:34] Shinon**
I don't need it, so you
can have it if you want.
**[04:36] Mako**
I thought you needed all of it.
**[04:38] Tsutsuji**
Then please give it to me.
**[04:39] Shinon**
Sure!
**[04:40] Kurea**
That's great, but we came here
to look for your money, right?
**[04:43] Mako**
Where did you lose it?
**[04:45] Shinon**
I guess I didn't really lose it so
much as forget where I hid it.
**[04:51] Kurea**
Why'd you hide it, anyway?
**[04:53] Shinon**
I'm low on money this month.
**[04:55] Shinon**
Since I've got living expenses and we're
going out, I thought I should save it.
**[04:59] Tsutsuji**
Oh. That's a good idea, actually.
**[05:03] Kurea**
But if you then lose it,
it defeats the whole purpose.
**[05:06] Mako**
Do you remember anything
about where you put it?
**[05:10] Shinon**
I actually prepared for this very possibility.
**[05:13] Shinon**
Behold! I stuck a hint on the ceiling
that will lead me to the hiding spot!
**[05:19] Mako**
The writing's so small, I can't read it.
**[05:22] Tsutsuji**
Let's see... It says "sealed red."
**[05:26] Mako**
Sealed red?
**[05:28] Kurea**
What's that supposed to mean?
**[05:29] Shinon**
Well, in this digital age, I figured
it would be prudent to encode it.
**[05:33] Kurea**
And yet your methods are completely analog.
**[05:36] Mako**
So what does it mean?
***SIGN*** Sealed Red
**[05:38] Shinon**
I kinda forgot that, too.
**[05:41] Mako**
Wh-Why don't we start by
looking for red things?
**[05:44] Kurea**
Yeah, sounds good.
**[05:52] Tsutsuji**
Nothing yet.
**[05:54] Kurea**
Do you have any other red things?
**[05:57] Tsutsuji**
Maybe we should branch out from
the most basic interpretation of "red."
**[06:01] Mako**
Red... Red... Like red corrections on a test?
**[06:06] Shinon**
Oh, that's it!
**[06:09] Shinon**
I'm pretty sure that in this
cardboard box, there's...
**[06:12] Shinon**
Red!
**[06:14] Kurea**
What is that?
**[06:15] Shinon**
A test from high school
covered in red marks!
**[06:17] Mako**
Thirteen percent?
**[06:19] Tsutsuji**
The answer written for "Who discovered the
theory of universal gravitation?" is "Apple."
**[06:25] Mako**
There's something stuck on the back.
***SIGN*** Inside a spinning tube
**[06:28] Mako**
"Inside a spinning tube"?
**[06:31] Mako**
Another coded clue?
**[06:32] Kurea**
Hang on! How many of these are there?
**[06:35] Shinon**
Amazingly enough, I've implemented
full three-factor authentication!
**[06:38] Kurea**
Stop talking like it's a digital system!
**[06:41] Shinon**
But thanks to all this, my memories of
that day might be coming back to me.
**[06:46] Mako**
Really?
**[06:47] Shinon**
If I'm right...
**[06:49] Shinon**
I had curry for dinner that day!
**[06:51] Kurea**
Who cares?!
**[06:52] Tsutsuji**
But I think I might know what this clue means.
**[06:56] Tsutsuji**
"Inside a spinning tube."
**[06:59] Tsutsuji**
Wouldn't that be the core
of a roll of toilet paper?
**[07:05] Kurea**
There really is another clue in there!
**[07:10] Tsutsuji**
Elementary, my dear.
**[07:11] Mako**
What's the next clue?
***SIGN*** The treasure is somewhere
***SIGN*** within view of the heavens
**[07:13] Kurea**
"The treasure is somewhere
within view of the heavens"?
**[07:16] Mako**
Shinon-chan, is anything else coming to mind?
**[07:20] Shinon**
It's on the tip of my tongue...
**[07:23] Shinon**
I remember everything now!
**[07:25] Shinon**
I stashed it inside the chest of
drawers in the loft! It's there!
**[07:30] Shinon**
There!
**[07:31] Shinon**
There!
**[07:34] Shinon**
There ain't squat here.
**[07:35] Shinon**
Why?! Why?! Why isn't it here?!
**[07:40] Tsutsuji**
Could it be a false memory?
**[07:42] Shinon**
Of course not! I'm positive this is
where I stashed my money!
**[07:46] Kurea**
Are you sure you didn't spend it?
**[07:49] Shinon**
C'mon! I would have remembered doing that!
**[07:52] Mako**
Why don't you try recalling
when you hid the money again?
**[07:59] (Flashback) Shinon**
"It'll cost about 3,000 yen." There.
**[08:02] (Flashback) Shinon**
Hmm... So that's 3,000 yen for hanging out,
**[08:05] (Flashback) Shinon**
and I'll need 2,000 to get through
the rest of the month.
**[08:08] (Flashback) Shinon**
That means I have to set aside
5,000 yen and not use it.
**[08:12] (Flashback) Shinon**
But if I see something I want,
I'll probably just buy it.
**[08:17] (Flashback) Shinon**
I know! I just have to hide
it as my secret stash!
**[08:21] (Flashback) Shinon**
Now that that's decided,
I just have to pick a hiding spot,
**[08:24] (Flashback) Shinon**
come up with some coded clues,
stick up some notes,
**[08:27] (Flashback) Shinon**
hide the clues, and...
**[08:30] (Flashback) Shinon**
There! It's done!
**[08:32] (Flashback) Shinon**
Man, thinking up those clues wore me out.
I think I'll turn in early.
**[08:36] (Flashback) Shinon**
Nighty night.
**[08:51] (Flashback) Shinon**
Huh? A coded clue?
**[08:54] (Flashback) Shinon**
What was the answer again?
**[08:58] (Flashback) Shinon**
Actually, where did I hide my money, anyway?
**[09:01] Shinon**
That's sort of how it went.
**[09:03] Mako**
Um, Shinon-chan...
**[09:06] Shinon**
What?
**[09:06] Mako**
If that's how it went,
**[09:08] Mako**
did you maybe just make the clues
and forget to hide the money?
**[09:15] Shinon**
No, no, no! Not even I'm
that much of a ditz!
**[09:19] Kruea**
Yeah, I guess that's true.
**[09:21] Shinon**
Honestly, Makocchi.
I wasn't expecting that out of you.
**[09:25] Tsutsuji**
Why don't you check your wallet, just in case?
**[09:28] Shinon**
Huh? I mean, sure, but...
**[09:32] Tsutsuji**
What should we do about
Shinon's share of the money?
**[09:35] Mako**
If it's just 3,000 yen, I should be
able to lend her that much.
***SIGN*** 5,000 yen
**[09:36] Shinon**
Oh.
**[09:40] Shinon**
Well, everyone, thank you for going
to so much trouble for my sake.
**[09:46] Kurea**
We sure did.
**[09:48] Mako**
But I'm glad you found your 5,000 yen bill.
**[09:50] Kurea**
Did you already decide where we're going?
**[09:52] Shinon**
Oh, that's right! Actually, I was thinking
I'd like us to go to Mt. Takao together!
**[09:58] Kurea**
Mt. Takao? Good choice!
**[10:01] Tsutsuji**
Have you been to Mt. Takao before, Kurea?
**[10:04] Kurea**
Yeah. Just once when I was little.
**[10:06] Shinon**
Apparently, there's a great view from the top,
and we can eat while we walk around.
**[10:11] Mako**
Eat while we walk?
**[10:12] Mako**
I want to go to Mt. Takao.
**[10:15] Shinon**
The look in your eyes changed all of a sudden.
**[10:17] Shinon**
What about the two of you?
**[10:19] Kurea**
Okay.
**[10:20] Tsutsuji**
It's fine with me, too.
**[10:22] Shinon**
Then it's decided!
Let's meet there on the day!
**[10:28] Mako**
Mt. Takao, huh?
**[10:30] Mako**
I don't really exercise, so I wonder
if I'll be able to handle it.
**[10:35] Mako**
But speaking of Mt. Takao...

I was so moved that I cried!
**[11:03] Mako**
All right! I'm going to try to make it
to that soba restaurant, too!
**[11:07] Mako**
Okay! Now I'm motivated!
**[11:21] Mako**
Tsutsuji-chan?
**[11:23] Tsutsuji**
Oh, Makocchi.
**[11:25] Tsutsuji**
What a coincidence that
we're taking the same train.
**[11:28] Tsutsuji**
Why don't we travel together?
**[11:29] Mako**
S-Sure.
**[11:38] Mako; internal**
* What do I do? I don't*
* know what to talk about.*
**[11:45] Tsutsuji**
Makocchi, your keychain...
**[11:47] Tsutsuji**
Is it a character from something?
**[11:49] Mako**
Huh? Y-Yes, it is.
**[11:52] Tsutsuji**
Nice! I totally get that.
I like collecting sheepy items, myself.
**[11:58] Mako**
That sofa is really cute, isn't it?
**[12:00] Tsutsuji**
It is! It seems like we have a lot in common.
**[12:06] Mako; internal**
*She's a little odd, but she's a good person.*
**[12:10] Mako**
So did you bring any sheepy items today?
**[12:14] Tsutsuji**
I did.
**[12:16] Tsutsuji**
Look. The hood of this jacket
has a sheep's face on it.
**[12:20] Mako**
It was a sheepy item all along!
**[12:23] Tsutsuji**
And when you pull the strings like this...
**[12:36] Mako**
It might be better not to wear that hood
when there are lots of people around.
**[12:46] Tsutsuji**
I'll keep it off, then.
**[12:49] Tsutsuji**
So, what kind of character is the one
on your keychain from before?
**[12:52] Mako**
Huh? Oh! He's called Mokotaro.
He posts foodie videos online.
**[12:58] Mako**
He does everything wearing
a special mascot outfit!
***SIGN*** Takaosanguchi Station

**[13:13] Mako**
Sorry to keep you waiting!
**[13:15] Shinon**
No problem!
**[13:16] Kurea**
Now we're all here, right?
**[13:18] Shinon**
Did you two come together?
**[13:20] Tsutsuji**
Yes.
**[13:21] Kurea**
Well, let's get going. We can
ride the chairlift partway up.
**[13:25] Shinon**
Ooh, a chairlift!
**[13:27] Mako**
I'm starting to get excited.
**[13:29] Tsutsuji**
So am I.
**[13:39] Shinon**
There are so many different shops!
**[13:43] Shinon**
I want a walking stick!
**[13:45] Kurea**
Stop that. You don't have the money, do you?
**[13:49] Kurea**
Come on. We're all going together—
**[13:51] Kurea**
Huh? Where'd the other two go?
**[13:55] Tsutsuji**

H-Hey, guys! Come this way!

**[14:04] Kurea**
All right, everyone,
remember not to wander off,
**[14:07] Kurea**
and have a fun trip up the mountain
without causing trouble, okay?
**[14:10] Tsutsuji**
Okay.
**[14:11] Shinon**
Is that something you say
to university students?
**[14:13] Mako**
Uh... What about eating as we go?
Eating and walking?
**[14:17] Kurea**
There'll be lots of places
to buy food on the way up.
**[14:22] Mako**
This is a little scary.
**[14:24] Kurea**
Don't worry. You'll be fine.
**[14:26] attendant**
Next!
**[14:28] attendant**
Please don't walk along the conveyor
belt. Stand still to get on the lift.
**[14:45] Mako**
Shinon-chan, isn't the view gorgeous?
**[14:48] Shinon**
Right?
**[14:49] Shinon**
By the way, it seems like you're
really starting to settle in.
**[14:53] Mako**
Huh? How so?
**[14:55] Shinon**
When I first met you on campus,
you were quieter than you used to be,
**[15:00] Shinon**
but lately, you've started
to seem more like the old you.
**[15:03] Mako**
Really? I can't really tell, myself.
What was the old me like?
**[15:09] Shinon**
Huh?
**[15:10] (Flashback) little Mako**
It's break time!
**[15:12] (Flashback) little Shinon**
Makocchi, come and play with us!
**[15:14] (Flashback) Yuna; Hiyori**
Come and play!
**[15:16] (Flashback) little Shinon**
What's with those eyes?!
**[15:18] (Flashback) little Mako**
Lunch today is Hamburg steak.
**[15:21] (Flashback) little Mako**
Let's work up our appetites
by playing outside!
**[15:24] Shinon**
Whenever food was involved,
you'd get this look in your eyes.
**[15:28] Mako**
What?
**[15:29] Mako; background**
I did not!
**[15:31] Tsutsuji**
They sure are having fun back there.
**[15:34] Kurea**
Well, they were friends as kids.
I'm sure they have a lot to talk about.
**[15:38] staff**
I'll be taking your picture now!
**[15:40] staff**
Please pose, if you'd like!
**[15:43] Tsutsuji**
You heard the man.
**[15:44] Kurea**
What? It's embarrassing. I'd rather not.
**[15:47] Tsutsuji**
That's fair. I'm sure not everyone
poses for their pictures, anyway.
**[15:53] Kurea**
Right.
**[15:55] Shinon**
Makocchi, let's pose! Let's pose!
**[15:58] Mako**
Shinon-chan! Don't move around
too much! It's dangerous!
**[16:01] Shinon**
Come on, Makocchi! Put your left hand here!
**[16:06] staff; female**
Would you like your photo?
**[16:07] Shinon**
Oh, no, thank you.
**[16:09] Kurea**
You're not buying it?
**[16:13] Tsutsuji**
Given our current altitude,
it's clear we've climbed quite far.
**[16:17] Kurea**
We haven't walked at all yet, though.
**[16:25] Kurea**
Kawai-san, are you going to buy dango?
**[16:28] Mako**
Huh? Oh, yeah.
**[16:30] Kurea**
Maybe I'll buy some, too.
**[16:33] Mako; Kurea**
Dango, please!
**[16:34] dango vendor**
Coming right up!
**[16:38] Mako**
They look delicious.
**[16:40] Shinon**
Looking forward to your report on the taste!
**[16:46] Mako**
This dango is incredible.
**[16:49] Mako**
The miso sauce is obviously delicious,
**[16:51] Mako**
but the sweet, rich flavor of the rice is
just as good as it spreads through your mouth.
**[16:56] Shinon**
So you make that face when
you report on food, too, huh?
**[16:59] Tsutsuji**
Then once you two are finished
with your dango, we'll get hiking.
**[17:07] Kurea**
Want a bite?
**[17:08] Shinon**
Kurea-sama!

**[17:49] Kurea**
It's pretty tiring, huh?
**[17:51] Mako**
Yeah.
**[17:53] Mako**
You make it look easy, though, Furutachi-san.
**[17:55] Kurea**
I need to have stamina to run errands
and stuff for the restaurant.
**[17:59] Mako**
Next to you, I'm hopeless.
**[18:05] Tsutsuji**
You two, please wait!
**[18:08] Shinon**
Maybe I should've bought
a walking stick after all.
**[18:11] Tsutsuji**
M-May I have a moment to chug the energy
drink I bought at the foot of the mountain?
**[18:20] Tsutsuji**
All right! My energy has been recharged!
**[18:24] Tsutsuji**
Limitless strength wells up within me!
**[18:26] Tsutsuji**
I'm going to run all the way to the top!
**[18:35] Kurea**
That limitless strength didn't last long.
**[18:48] Mako**
That restaurant...
That's the one Mokotaro visited!
**[18:51] Kurea**
Moko...?
**[18:53] Kurea**
I'm not sure I understand, but everyone
seems tired, so should we take a break?
**[18:57] Mako**
You don't mind?
**[18:58] Shinon**
I'm for it!
**[19:01] Tsutsuji**
Let's hurry up and go.
**[19:03] Shinon**
Okay.
**[19:10] Mako**
It's got a nice ambience, doesn't it?
**[19:13] Shinon**
And they have Ramune!

**[19:17] Tsutsuji**
I'll save our seats. Could I ask someone
to order me curry rice, please?
**[19:22] Kurea**
You say that, but you
just want to sit, right?
**[19:25] Kurea**
Not that I mind.

Hey! Let's all look at the view together!
**[20:31] Shinon**
Okay! I'm coming!
**[20:39] Shinon**
Wow, it's amazing!
**[20:40] Tsutsuji**
Yeah.
**[20:42] Kurea**
The sunset is so beautiful!
**[20:45] Tsutsuji**
You can see everything at once.
**[20:47] Shinon**
Hey! That's my apartment!
**[20:49] Kurea**
No, no. We don't even live in that direction.
**[20:52] Mako; internal**
*It's so beautiful.*
**[20:55] Mako; internal**
* I never would have come*
* all the way here alone.*
**[20:58] Mako; internal**
* I made it here because I moved*
* to this town and met the others.*
**[21:03] Tsutsuji**
It was exhausting,
but it was worth the hike.
**[21:07] Shinon**
Hey, let's not stop at one trip.
Let's keep doing all kinds of stuff!
**[21:12] Mako**
I...
**[21:13] Mako**
I also... want to make lots...
more memories in this club!
**[21:28] Kurea**
All right, then. Let's take a photo.
**[21:30] Kurea**
We'll say the same thing as last time, okay?
**[21:34] Shinon**
Okay!
**[21:34] Mako**
What? The same as last time? You mean...
**[21:37] Kurea**
Mt. Takao...
**[21:39] Kurea**
Ready, and...
**[21:41] everyone**
Thanks for the feast!
**[23:17] Kurea**
Oh, Kawai-san. Are you looking at
the photo from the other day?
**[23:21] Mako**
Oh, yeah. I was just thinking
about how fun it all was.
**[23:24] Tsutsuji**
Makocchi, did you take pictures of the food
you ate on the way up the mountain?
**[23:28] Mako**
Oh! I forgot!
**[23:30] Tsutsuji**
Then I'll post some in the group chat.
**[23:32] Mako**
Really? Thank you.
**[23:35] Mako**
Oh, Shinon-chan is here.
**[23:40] Shinon**
I've done it now!
**[23:42] Shinon**
Because I bought this walking stick
as a souvenir on the way down,
**[23:46] Shinon**
I now have to make it through the next
two days without any money at all!
**[23:53] Shinon**
Someone...
**[23:55] Shinon**
Someone, help me!

be a German test next week.

*Sh-She was terrifying!*

**[02:21] Mako; internal**
* She even convinced them to give us*
* a refrigerator. Oshinko's amazing.*
**[02:30] Mako; internal**
*Oh, right. Oshinko said*
**[02:32] Mako; internal**
* she was going to start working*
* part-time at Furutachi-san's restaurant.*
**[02:36] Mako; internal**
*I was hoping we could all eat together again,*
**[02:38] Mako; internal**
* but I guess I should ask the*
* others for their schedules.*
**[02:51] Mako; internal**
* Th-That was... the scary girl*
* from German class, right?*
**[02:57] Mako; internal**
*I wonder what that was about.*
**[03:00] Mako; internal**
*Did she get the wrong room?*
**[03:07] Mako; internal**
*There's no one here.*
**[03:10] Mako; internal**
*Don't tell me she's some kind of ghost...*
**[03:26] Nana**
U-Um...
**[03:28] Nana**
Is this...
**[03:30] Mako**
Y-Yes?
**[03:31] Nana**
Is this...
**[03:33] Nana**
the Food Culture Research Club?
**[03:36] Mako**
Y-Yes, it is...
**[03:46] Mako**
O-Over to you.
**[03:49] Nana**
U-Uh... Over to you.
**[03:51] Mako**
Um, well, if you have business here,
would you like to come inside?
**[04:04] Mako**
U-Um, you don't need to sit in the corner.
**[04:09] Nana**
This is fine.
**[04:12] Mako**
Oh. O-Okay.
**[04:19] Mako; internal**
* I asked her in, but it's hard to get*
* a conversation going like this.*
**[04:24] Mako; internal**
* What do I do? Maybe I should call*
* Oshinko or Furutachi-san to come help.*
**[04:31] Mako; internal**
* What is she doing?*
* She's taking something out.*
**[04:36] Mako; internal**
*Handcuffs?!*
**[04:37] Mako; internal**
* Is she trying to stop me*
* from calling the others?*
**[04:40] Mako; internal**
*B-But why would she do that?*
**[04:44] Mako; internal**
*Wait, is she...*
**[04:44] Mako; internal**
*plotting to take over our club?!*
**[04:47] Mako; internal**
*S-Surely not, right?*
**[04:49] Mako; internal**
*But she* is *pretty scary... so maybe?*
**[04:52] Mako; internal**
*I-I know! I'll escape while she's distracted!*
**[04:57] Mako; internal**
*All right.*
**[04:59] Mako**
Hey, look! Flying takoyaki!
**[05:08] Mako; internal**
*She's not looking away at all!*
**[05:11] Mako; internal**
*I guess all I can do... is make a run for it!*
**[05:27] Mako**
Tsutsuji-chan, I'm so sorry!
**[05:30] Tsutsuji**
So, uh... This is Nana.
**[05:32] Tsutsuji**
We were in the same grade in high school.
**[05:35] Mako**
I-I'm Mako Kawai. Pleased to meet you.
**[05:45] Mako**
Um... So...
**[05:48] Tsutsuji**
When Nana's with people she knows,
she's quite personable,
**[05:51] Tsutsuji**
but she has a deep-rooted fear of strangers.
**[05:54] Mako**
Huh, really? You wouldn't
think so by looking at her.
**[05:57] Tsutsuji**
Take a look at this.
**[05:59] Mako**
A photo?
**[06:00] Mako**
That's the three of you and...
**[06:04] Mako**
who?
**[06:05] Tsutsuji**
That's Nana.
**[06:07] Mako**
What? She looks completely different now.
**[06:10] Tsutsuji**
That look only lasted until shortly
after she started school here.
**[06:14] Mako**
Wait, so she knows Shinon-chan
and Furutachi-san, too?
**[06:18] Tsutsuji**
That's right. When we were first trying
to establish the club, we invited Nana,
**[06:22] Tsutsuji**
but she turned us down, saying she wanted
to start a puzzle club or something.
**[06:26] Mako**
A puzzle club?
**[06:29] Mako**
Now that I look more closely,
that's a metal brainteaser.
**[06:32] Tsutsuji**
Turns out she wants to
join our club after all.
**[06:36] Tsutsuji**
So I hope you'll look out for her.
**[06:38] Mako**
Oh, sure.
**[06:43] Mako**
U-Um...
**[06:47] Mako**
So, um...
**[06:51] Mako**
Oh, I know!
**[06:52] Mako**
Since we have a brand-new member,
I'll go buy us some drinks and stuff!
**[06:57] Tsutsuji**
Thanks. I'll leave it to you.
**[07:07] Nana**
I could barely string two words together!
**[07:10] Nana**
Wh-Wh-What do I do, Hitsuji-chan?
**[07:13] Nana**
Kawai-san totally thinks of me
as the weird corner-peeking girl!
**[07:18] Tsutsuji**
It's all right. Calm down.
**[07:20] Tsutsuji**
Actually, what happened to your puzzle club?
**[07:24] Nana**
Well, it...
**[07:26] (Flashback) Shinon**
What?! You're not joining the
Food Culture Research Club?!
**[07:31] (Flashback) Nana**
Nope! I'm gonna make my
own puzzle club instead!
**[07:34] (Flashback) Kurea**
Now that you mention it, you're always
playing with those metal puzzles.
**[07:37] (Flashback) Shinon**
Man... And just when I thought
the four of us would be together.
**[07:40] (Flashback) Nana**
Sorry.
**[07:42] (Flashback) Tsutsuji**
But will you be all right without us?
**[07:44] (Flashback) Tsutsuji**
With your fear of strangers, it'll be
hard for you to recruit members.
**[07:48] (Flashback) Nana**
Don't worry, Hitsuji-chan! I'll have
that club made before you know it!
***SIGN*** Puzzle Club!

**[07:59] (Flashback) Nana**
No takers, huh?
**[08:01] Nana**
*But why? Doesn't everyone love puzzles?*

* If I made myself more eye-catching,*
* could I attract more people that way?*
**[08:12] Nana; internal**
*Well, I'm a university student now.*
**[08:15] Nana; internal**
* It's the perfect time to*

**[08:17] Nana; internal**
* Maybe a makeover will give me the confidence*
* I need to leave my fear of strangers behind!*
**[08:21] Nana; internal**
*All right!*

Did we have a girl like that here?

As you can imagine, the Puzzle Club
was over before it even began.
**[09:13] Tsutsuji**
I see.
**[09:14] Nana**
It's no good! I can change how I look,
but not how I am inside.
**[09:19] Nana**
I'll never put the Puzzle Club together,
**[09:21] Nana**
and now Kawai-san hates me, too.
Why did I come to university at all?
**[09:25] Tsutsuji**
To pursue knowledge?
**[09:27] Nana**
Please, Hitsuji-chan! I need you to liven
things up so we can talk less awkwardly!
**[09:31] Nana**
I've finally joined a club!
I don't want things to stay this way!
**[09:35] Tsutsuji**
Hmm. Well, both of you
*are* dear friends of mine.
**[09:40] Tsutsuji**
Very well! I'll help you out of your shell!
**[09:43] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan! Thank you!
**[09:48] Mako**
I'm back.
**[09:50] Tsutsuji**
Welcome back.
**[10:06] Tsutsuji**
Uh, well... It sure is a
nice day today, isn't it?
**[10:11] Tsutsuji**
Do either of you play sports or anything?
**[10:14] Mako**
I don't really play anything much.
**[10:20] Tsutsuji**
Um, would it be all right for me
to have this grape juice?
**[10:24] Mako**
Huh? Sure, go right ahead.
**[10:30] Tsutsuji**
Oh, I just remembered.
**[10:33] Tsutsuji**
I mentioned sports just now because
I found out my cousin is taking karate.
**[10:39] Tsutsuji**
Heard it through the *grape*vine.
**[10:46] Tsutsuji**
Um... In that case, I will dance.
**[10:50] Tsutsuji**
Through this dance, I shall show
both of you how to liven things up!
**[11:17] Shinon**
That class sure ran long, huh?
**[11:19] Kurea**
Right?
**[11:20] Shinon**
Nana and Makocchi both
get anxious around strangers.
**[11:23] Shinon**
I hope putting them together
hasn't made things weird.
**[11:26] Kurea**
Yeah... But I'm sure Tsutsuji
has it all handled, right?
**[11:43] Shinon**
I have no idea what's going on,
but this room is a disaster zone!
**[11:49] Shinon**
Sorry! Nana only decided to join yesterday,
so I didn't get a chance to tell you about her.
**[11:54] Mako**
Oh, okay.
**[11:56] Shinon**
Did you already get acquainted?
**[11:58] Mako**
Y-Yes. Just a little.
**[12:00] Shinon**
Well, our club has five members now!
**[12:03] Shinon**
Let's put our all into lazing
around like never before!
**[12:06] Kurea**
How do you give lazing around your all?
**[12:15] Mako; internal**
*I'm getting the feeling she hates me.*
**[12:23] Mako**
German is hard.
**[12:25] Mako**
My head is all mixed up...
**[12:30] Mako**
Not to mention... I bet Hoshi-san hates me now.
**[12:34] Mako**
She totally thinks of me
as the flying takoyaki girl.
**[12:41] Tsutsuji**
* Tomorrow's Saturday, but do you want*
* to study with Nana in the club room?*
**[12:53] Mako**
Morning.
**[12:54] Tsutsuji**
Good morning.
**[12:56] Tsutsuji**
Why do you have that bag?
**[12:59] Mako**
I thought I might be able to do a little
cooking in between study sessions,
**[13:02] Mako**
so I brought ingredients.
**[13:03] Tsutsuji**
I like the sound of that.
We'll pitch in for the cost.
**[13:08] Mako**
Um... Come to think of it, where
are Shinon-chan and Furutachi-san?
**[13:12] Tsutsuji**
They both have work.
**[13:15] Mako**
Oh, Shinon-chan starts today?
**[13:18] Shinon**
I'm Shinon Ogawa! I'm looking
forward to working with you!
**[13:22] Kurea's mom**
So much energy! I'll be counting on you!
**[13:25] Shinon**
Yes, ma'am! I'll work harder
than a car spinning its wheels!
**[13:27] Kurea**
Uh, please don't just spin your wheels.
**[13:29] Kurea's mom**
Then can you julienne the cabbage for me?
**[13:34] Kurea**
Wha... Wait! Actually,
can you wait tables instead?
**[13:37] Shinon**
Why? I can keep going.
You haven't seen what I can do yet.
**[13:40] Kurea**
And I don't *want* to see it!
**[13:43] Shinon**
Well, if you insist, Kurea.
**[13:46] Kurea**
Please? I'm begging you!
**[13:50] daughter**
Hey, Mommy! Which one's the yummiest?
**[13:53] mother**
Hmm... I haven't been here
before, so I'm not sure.
**[13:57] mother**
Excuse me!
**[13:58] Shinon**
Y-Yes?
**[14:01] mother**
Do you have any recommendations?
**[14:03] Shinon**
I'm sorry. I just started today,
so I don't really know.
**[14:07] daughter**
What, really?
**[14:09] Shinon**
Yes, but you know...
**[14:12] Shinon**
Meat and oil will never betray you.
**[14:15] Shinon**
Looking at it that way,
my personal recommendation...
***SIGN*** A. Meat and Vegetable Sauté Set
***SIGN*** C. Sauced Katsudon
***SIGN*** D. Loin Roast Katsudon
**[14:19] Shinon**
is this sauced katsudon!
**[14:22] Shinon**
The batter is super crispy and yummy!
**[14:26] daughter**
Okay! I'll have the sauced katsudon!
**[14:30] mother**
Okay, two of those, please.
**[14:31] Shinon**
Two sauced katsudon,
coming right up! Thank you!

**[14:46] Mako; internal**
*This is a difficult question.*
**[14:48] Mako; internal**
* Tsutsuji-chan isn't taking German,*
* so I can't ask her.*
**[14:52] Mako**
U-Um, Hoshi-san?
**[14:55] Mako**
Do you know how to answer this question?
**[14:58] Nana**
Yes.
**[14:59] Mako**
What? Really?
**[15:01] Nana**
Can I write it down?
**[15:02] Mako**
Y-Yes.
**[15:08] Nana**
Here.
**[15:09] Mako**
Thank you.
**[15:14] Mako**
Hoshi-san, this is amazing!
**[15:16] Mako**
You understood the question
perfectly! You're so smart!
**[15:19] Mako**
And this drawing is cute, too.
***SIGN*** Key point! With separable verbs,

**[15:25] Tsutsuji**
No need to worry.
**[15:27] Tsutsuji**
She's just trying to hold back her
delight at your words of praise.
**[15:30] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan!
***SIGN*** Takao Diner
**[15:33] Shinon**
Thank you for all your hard work!
**[15:35] Kurea's mom**
Having you here was such a huge help!
**[15:39] Shinon**
Oh, I really didn't do much.
**[15:41] Kurea**
Hey, Shinon. You're headed
to the club room, right?
**[15:44] Shinon**
Yeah.
**[15:45] Kurea**
Mom left us a little pick-me-up.
**[15:47] Kurea**
Could you take it to
Kawai-san and the others?
**[15:50] Mako**
Hoshi-san, for this part...
**[15:54] Nana**
Y-You do this here.
**[15:55] Mako**
Oh, so that's how it works.
**[16:00] Tsutsuji**
I'm getting pretty hungry.
**[16:03] Mako**
Then should I make us some food?
I got permission already.
**[16:06] Tsutsuji**
Oh, thank you.
**[16:09] Mako**
It'll just be simple sandwiches, though.
**[16:14] Tsutsuji**
It's from Shinon. Let's see...
***SIGN*** Food Culture Research Club
***SIGN*** Understood.
Let's do that
***SIGN*** We got meat from Kurea and her mom!
Makocchi, can you cook with this?
**[16:18] Shinon**
*We got meat from Kurea and her mom!*
**[16:22] Shinon**
*Makocchi, can you cook with this?*
**[16:26] Mako**
Wow!
**[16:28] Mako**
This meat is incredible!
**[16:30] Tsutsuji**
I haven't seen anything so
impressive in a long time.
**[16:34] Shinon**
How's your studying going? Done enough?
**[16:37] Mako**
I think I've reached a good stopping point.
**[16:40] Shinon**
Then let's cook this pork
for Nana's welcome party!
**[16:44] Mako**
What about Furutachi-san?
**[16:45] Shinon**
Kurea says she'll come after
they finish prepping for tonight.
**[16:49] Mako**
I see.
**[16:51] Mako**
Okay.
**[16:52] Mako**
Hoshi-san, what kinds of
meat dishes do you like?
**[16:55] Nana**
Huh? M-Me?
**[16:58] Nana**
Um, maybe grilled skewers like yakiton?
**[17:02] Shinon**
Oh, yakiton sounds good!
**[17:04] Tsutsuji**
Makocchi, can you make that?
**[17:08] Mako**
In that case, how about souvlaki?
**[17:11] Mako**
Mokotaro uploaded a cooking video for that,
so I'm sure I'll be able to make it!
**[17:11] Mokotaro; background**
*Moko!*
**[17:17] Shinon**
Okay! This time, I'm cooking, too!
**[17:20] Shinon**
Workplace regrets, I'm comin' for ya!
**[17:22] Mako**
Huh? What happened at work?
**[17:29] Tsutsuji**
Nana!
**[17:31] Tsutsuji**
Come sit down, if you'd like.
**[17:33] Nana**
Huh? Oh, okay.
**[17:43] Mako**
There!
**[17:51] Mako; internal**
*Cut the pork into bite-sized pieces,*
**[17:54] Mako; internal**
* then transfer it into a bowl*

**[17:57] Mako; internal**

**[18:03] Mako; internal**
*Then mix it all together.*
**[18:15] Mako; internal**
* Cut the bell peppers into*

**[18:18] Mako; internal**

**[18:21] Mako; internal**

**[18:41] Mako**
There! The souvlaki and
sandwiches are ready!
**[18:46] Tsutsuji**
They look wonderful.
**[18:49] Kurea**
Oh, did I happen to come at the perfect time?
**[18:52] Mako**
Ah, Furutachi-san!
**[18:55] Mako**
Thank you for the meat!
**[18:57] Kurea**
No problem. Oh, that smells good!
**[19:00] Shinon**
I helped make these!
**[19:02] Kurea**
For real? Nice work!
**[19:06] Shinon**
And now, in celebration of
Nana joining the club...
**[19:09] Shinon; Mako; Kurea; Tsutsuji**
Time to eat!
**[19:11] Nana**
T-Time to eat.
**[19:22] Nana**
It's delicious!
**[19:47] Kurea**
This is delicious, Kawai-san!
**[19:49] Mako**
Thank you!

**[20:19] Mako**
I'm going to study a little more after this.
Would you like to join me?
**[20:24] Nana**
Um, there's something
I want to apologize for.
**[20:28] Mako**
Huh?
**[20:29] Nana**
Remember when I bumped into you
after German class that one time?
**[20:33] Nana**
I tried to apologize...
**[20:35] Nana**
but I thought you might be angry with me
because it didn't come across properly.
**[20:40] Mako**
What? I'm not angry! Not angry at all!
**[20:43] Mako**
I did think you were a little scary, though.
**[20:46] Nana**
R-Really? That's a relief.
**[20:49] Nana**
And also... Your cooking was really good.
**[20:52] Nana**
I-I'm going to study some more, too,
**[20:55] Nana**
so if there's anything you don't get, just ask.
**[20:57] Mako**
I will. Thank you!

**[21:24] Mako**
W-Well, I think. Thanks to all your help.
**[21:27] Nana**
Right? You wouldn't think it,
but I'm a pretty good teacher.

Oh, is it okay if I call you Makocchan?
I guess I already am, though!

Oh, the girl from the Food

You applied for permission

**[22:02] clerk**
Good to see you taking club seriously.
**[22:04] Mako**
Th-Thanks.
**[22:07] clerk**
Hey, you. The girl stuck

**[22:11] clerk**
Do you feel sick or something?
**[22:13] Nana**
N-No, just a little...
**[22:17] clerk**
Could it be that you're hiding something?
**[22:19] Nana**
Huh?! N-No! No, I-I'm not... not...

Huh? What's that?

**[00:11] Shinon**
You know, Kurea, it's no use
cramming at the last minute.
**[00:15] Kurea**
It's not going to hurt, though, is it?
I guess you did all your studying already?
**[00:20] Shinon**
Well, I didn't bring my textbook.
**[00:22] Kurea**
Can I take that to mean you've fully
memorized the rules of the road?
**[00:26] Shinon**
Sure.
**[00:27] Kurea**
Really?
**[00:29] Kurea**
Then name one traffic rule.
**[00:34] Shinon**
It's wrong to hit people with cars.
**[00:37] Kurea**
I knew you didn't study for this.
***SIGN*** Episode 5 "Want to Go for a Drive?"

**[02:10] Kurea**
I knew you didn't study for this.
Well, it's your funeral.
**[02:14] Shinon**
Come on. I was just joking!
**[02:17] Shinon**
I did study, and the written exam
is all true or false, right?
**[02:22] Shinon**
It'll be easy!
**[02:24] Kurea**
You have to score 90 points or higher.
**[02:26] Shinon**
It'll be fine. It'll be fine!
**[02:28] Shinon**
Just listen to my perfect plan!
**[02:32] Kurea**
You're not wearing glasses.
**[02:33] Shinon**
First, since the exam questions are just
true or false, that's 50 points, guaranteed!
***SIGN*** Question No.
***SIGN*** True
***SIGN*** False
**[02:37] Shinon**
And with the knowledge I acquired
**[02:38] Shinon**
while getting my provisional license,
I can get 20 more!
***SIGN*** Pass
**[02:41] Shinon**
And my horoscope was pretty good today,
so that's another 15 points!
**[02:46] Shinon**
My passing is assured!
**[02:48] Kurea**
That's only 85 points.
You're still five points short.
**[02:54] Shinon**
A mere rounding error!
**[02:55] Kurea**
I'm telling you, you need 90 points!
And you're still not wearing glasses!
**[03:00] Shinon**
It's already time for the exam.
**[03:05] Shinon**
Hey, Kurea?
**[03:07] Shinon**
Can I borrow that textbook you had earlier?
**[03:09] Kurea**
Huh?
**[03:11] Shinon**
All my confidence just left me for some
reason. I need to study while I still can.
**[03:15] Kurea**
It's too late for that!
**[03:16] Shinon**
But if I work hard enough—
**[03:18] Kurea**
You can't! The proctor is already here!
**[03:21] Kurea**
Just give it up!
**[03:23] proctor**
We will now begin the exam.
**[03:34] proctor**
Your exam results are in.
**[03:37] proctor**
Please refer to the screens above.
**[03:40] proctor**
Everyone whose number is up there has passed
**[03:42] proctor**
and should remain in the classroom.
**[03:49] Kurea**
What a relief! It's there!
**[03:52] Kurea**
Shinon, how did you do?
**[03:54] Kurea**
Oh! Does that mean you passed?

**[04:12] Nana**
Wanna give it a try, Makocchan?
**[04:14] Mako**
You think I can solve it?
**[04:16] Shinon**
Good morning!
**[04:18] Mako**
That scared me!
**[04:20] Mako**
And it's already afternoon.
**[04:22] Mako**
Wait, you seem really happy for some reason.
**[04:24] Shinon**
Does it show? The thing is...
**[04:27] Shinon**

That's the kind of smile you can only make
when you finally triumph after many failures.
**[04:39] Tsutsuji**
Kurea, you went to get your
license at the same time, right?
**[04:42] Kurea**
Yeah, that's right.
**[04:44] Tsutsuji**
I'd like to see your license, as well.
**[04:46] Kurea**
C-C'mon, you don't need to see mine.
**[04:48] Nana**
Nah, show us!
**[04:50] Tsutsuji**
We want to see.
**[04:52] Kurea**
W-Well, if you insist.
**[04:57] Shinon**
Seems pretty normal.
***SIGN*** DRIVER'S LICENSE
**[04:59] Nana**
No, that's a face full of anxiety. I can tell.
**[05:04] Tsutsuji**
Oh, you're right.
**[05:05] Kurea**
That's enough, isn't it?
Hurry up and give it back!
**[05:08] Kurea**
Honestly.
**[05:11] Mako**
Wait... Do you have a car, Shinon-chan?
**[05:13] Shinon**
Nope.
**[05:15] Shinon**
My parents just said I should get
my license while I was at university.
**[05:18] Kurea**
But you're working part-time at our place,
so we might ask you to drive at some point.
**[05:23] Shinon**
Ah, good point.
**[05:24] Kurea**
Oh, I know!
**[05:26] Kurea**
Since we both have our licenses now,
why don't we all go for a drive?
**[05:30] Kurea**
We can use the restaurant's car.
**[05:31] Tsutsuji**
That sounds like fun.
**[05:34] Nana**
I like it! It feels so grown-up!
**[05:37] Mako**
Is it really okay to use the restaurant's car?
**[05:39] Kurea**
I'll have to check with Mom,
but it'll probably be fine!
**[05:43] Shinon**
Sounds like a plan!
Next up, let's pick a date!
**[05:49] Mako**
Furutachi-san, I think it's really
cool that you got your license.
**[05:52] Mako**
I'd never even thought about getting one.
**[05:54] Kurea**
If I can drive, then I can help
with buying supplies and stuff.
**[05:59] Mako**
Oh, right, for the restaurant.
**[06:03] Kurea**
A long time ago, we had to
travel pretty far to get them.
**[06:06] little Kurea; background**
I'm going, too!
**[06:09] Kurea**
It'd be early in the morning,
**[06:09] little Kurea; background**
Take me with you! I can help!
**[06:10] Kurea**
but I'd throw a fit, asking Mom to take me
with her, until she let me ride in the car.
**[06:14] Kurea's mom; background**
Then let's go change your clothes, okay?
**[06:17] Kurea**
I think the place she took me
to most often was Tsukiji.
**[06:21] Kurea**
There were so many kinds
of fish and shellfish,
**[06:24] Kurea**
my eyes were always darting left and right.
**[06:31] Kurea**
And I liked looking at the scenery
on the car ride back.
**[06:36] Kurea**
I'd look out the window thinking about
how I didn't want to go home just yet.
**[06:41] (Flashback) Kurea's mom**
Wake up, Kurea. We're almost home.
**[06:48] Kurea**
But I'd always fall asleep,
so I never got to see much.
**[06:53] Mako**
I know what you mean.
It's like cars make you sleepy, huh?
**[06:57] Kurea**
But I always thought Mom was so cool,
driving everywhere.
**[07:01] Kurea**
That's why I wanted to learn
to drive someday myself.
**[07:05] Kurea**
Sorry. I've been doing all the talking.
**[07:09] Mako**
Nah, it's fine.

**[07:19] Kurea's mom**
Are you in the same club as Kurea?
**[07:27] Kurea**
Mom, Nana is like that with everyone
at first. Don't let it bother you.
**[07:32] Kurea's mom**
I see. Your friend is shy.
**[07:34] Kurea's mom**
Oh, Shinon-chan!
**[07:36] Shinon**
Yes?
**[07:37] Kurea's mom**
I've set things up so that
you can drive it, too.
**[07:40] Shinon**
Really? Thank you so much!
**[07:43] Kurea's mom**
Now you can go make deliveries!
**[07:47] Kurea**
Mom, your true motives are showing.
**[07:49] Tsutsuji**
Well, shall we set out?
**[07:50] Shinon**
Hang on!

No cats!
**[07:56] Shinon**
No cats!
**[07:59] Shinon**
No cats!
**[08:03] Shinon**
There. Safety check complete!
**[08:06] Tsutsuji**
So this is the cat safety check
you learned in drivers' school?
**[08:09] Tsutsuji**
I've never seen it before.
**[08:11] Kurea**
People don't usually go that far with it.
**[08:14] Kurea**
Okay, everyone, get in! You, too, Nana!
***SIGN*** Takao Diner
**[08:17] Shinon; Tsutsuji; Mako**
Okay!

W-Wait for me!

**[08:24] girls**
Yes!
**[08:25] Kurea**
Well, see you later, Mom.
**[08:28] Kurea's mom**
Have a nice trip. Be careful out there.
**[08:30] Kurea**
We will.
**[08:31] Kurea**
Okay. We're off!
**[08:34] Kurea's mom**
Drive safely!
**[08:42] Tsutsuji**
Where are we headed?
**[08:43] Kurea**
I'm just going to drive around this area.
**[08:46] Kurea**
If there's anywhere you want to stop, speak up.
**[08:49] Shinon**
I just noticed this car doesn't have a GPS.
**[08:52] Kurea**
We usually just navigate via smartphone,
**[08:55] Kurea**
but we're sticking close to home today,
so we should be fine.
**[08:57] Mako**
Is that a Rubik's cube?
**[09:00] Nana**
Sure is. Watch this, Makocchan!
**[09:12] Nana**
And solved!
**[09:13] Mako**
Wow!
**[09:15] Nana**
Y-You're a little too surprised.
Was it really that amazing?
**[09:18] Mako**
It was incredible! Do it again!
**[09:21] Nana**
You're gonna make me blush!
**[09:24] Nana**
All right!
**[09:25] Nana**
I'll do it as many times
as you want, Makocchan!
**[09:29] Nana**
And solved!
**[09:30] Mako**
Oh, wow! Do it again!
**[09:38] Mako**
Furutachi-san, pull over!
Nana-chan is carsick!
**[09:41] Kurea**
That didn't take long...
**[09:49] Tsutsuji**
Are you all right?
**[09:51] Nana**
Yeah, I feel better after drinking
some water. Sorry about this.
**[09:54] Mako**
It's all my fault for asking you to
solve it so many times. I'm sorry.
**[09:57] Kurea**
Well, my nerves were getting a bit
worn out from driving everyone,
**[10:01] Kurea**
so this was perfect timing, really.
**[10:02] Shinon**
Should I take over, then?
**[10:05] Kurea**
Oh, could you?
**[10:08] Shinon**
Okay!
**[10:10] Shinon**
Shall we get going, then?
**[10:12] Nana**
Yeah.
**[10:15] Shinon**
Since there's no GPS,
I can just go wherever, right?
**[10:18] Kurea**
Yeah...
**[10:19] Tsutsuji**
Shinon, please drive safely.
**[10:33] Tsutsuji**
I was a little unsure what your driving
would be like, but you're good.
**[10:38] Shinon**
Right? I nailed the practical exam, you know.
**[10:42] Shinon**
Oh, this is Mt. Takao!
Where we all went together!
**[10:46] Tsutsuji**
You're right.
**[10:48] Shinon**
That was so much fun.
**[10:50] Tsutsuji**
We made some great memories.
**[10:52] Shinon**
Yeah, and the sunset we all saw
from the top was so beautiful!
**[10:57] Nana**
Um...
**[10:59] Nana**
I'm not in those memories.
**[11:05] Shinon**
Ya got me there!
**[11:08] Shinon**
But don't worry, Nana.
Our university lives have only just begun.
**[11:13] Shinon**
The five of us just have to make lots

Wait, Shinon! You're going the wrong way!
**[11:26] Shinon**
Whatcha talking about?
**[11:27] Kurea**
This'll take us onto the freeway!
**[11:30] Shinon**
Huh?
**[11:31] Shinon**
What?! But I can't handle the
freeway! Can't we go back?
**[11:35] Kurea**
No way! There are tons of cars
behind us! Keep going!
**[11:39] Shinon**
Huh? Wha... W-Wait...
**[11:41] Mako**
What?
**[11:42] Nana**
The freeway?
**[11:43] Kurea**
Shinon, will you be okay?
**[11:45] Shinon**
If it isn't too busy, I might be.
**[11:50] Shinon**
Okay, I'm merging.
**[11:52] Tsutsuji**
You're okay at the back.
**[11:57] Shinon**
I'm scared! There are way too many cars!
**[11:59] Kurea**
Keep it together!
**[12:03] Mako**
Shinon-chan, there's an exit
over there! Take it!
**[12:06] Shinon**
What? Where? Where is "over there"?
**[12:12] Shinon**
Wh-What do I do?
I couldn't get off the freeway.
**[12:15] Kurea**
It's all right. We're all right.
You're driving really well!
**[12:18] Kurea**
Let's just keep going like this
and get off at the next exit!
**[12:21] Shinon**
R-Right. Okay.
**[12:25] Shinon**
Just wondering, but we're
good for insurance, right?
**[12:28] Nana**
Why are you asking about insurance now?
**[12:30] Kurea**
We are. Mom put you on the insurance.
**[12:34] Shinon**
Oh, okay! I feel better now!
**[12:36] Nana**
You were just talking
about making fun memories!
**[12:39] Nana**
Why are you asking about insurance now?!
**[12:41] Tsutsuji**
Oh, there's a parking area!
**[12:44] Shinon**
You're right! Okay, this time I'm gonna do it!
**[12:47] Kurea**
Use the turn signal!
**[12:48] Shinon**
Okay.
**[12:51] Shinon**
Now, into the parking area...
**[13:08] Shinon**
Thank goodness.
**[13:11] Shinon**
Everyone's safe.
**[13:13] Shinon**
Thank goodness!
**[13:16] Nana**
I'm so glad!
**[13:17] Tsutsuji**
We're all alive!
**[13:18] Shinon**
I'm just so relieved!
**[13:21] Kurea**
Uh, we're going to have to take
the freeway back, though...
**[13:32] Mako**
This nikuman is delicious!
**[13:35] Kurea; internal**
* They were so full of despair*
* just a little while ago.*
**[13:38] Mako**
But what are we going to do now?
**[13:41] Kurea**
Don't worry about that.
**[13:43] Kurea**
I practiced driving on the freeway
with Mom, so I'll handle it.
**[13:48] Kurea**
But we sure did come a lot farther
than I thought we would.
**[13:53] Kurea**
Since we've come this far,
want to go a little further?
**[13:56] Tsutsuji**
Where do you want to go
that's a little further?
**[13:58] Kurea**
I haven't really decided.
**[14:02] Mako**
What about Tsukiji?
**[14:04] Kurea**
Tsukiji? I kinda want to. It's been ages!
**[14:07] Nana**
Sounds like fun!
**[14:09] Shinon**
Shall we try going to Tsukiji, then?
**[14:11] Tsutsuji**
I've finished eating my nikuman.
Let's go to Tsujiki!
**[14:14] Shinon**
You didn't have to rush yourself.
**[14:18] Kurea**
Smartphone navigation, ready to go!
**[14:21] Kurea**
I should have set it up from the start.
**[14:23] Kurea**
All that's left is...
**[14:27] Kurea**
Now everything's perfect.
**[14:30] Shinon**
You look like a pro!
**[14:31] Kurea**
A pro what?
**[14:33] Kurea**
Here we go!
**[14:52] Mako**
This is amazing! It's Tsukiji! Tsukiji!
**[14:56] Tsutsuji**
Sure are a lot of people here.
**[14:57] Mako**
There are stalls, too.
**[14:59] Tsutsuji**
They're selling shellfish
and shrimp over there.
**[15:01] Nana**
But we didn't bring anything with us,
so we're just looking today.
**[15:05] Kurea**
Oh, there's a barbecue site nearby.
**[15:11] Mako**
I want to have a barbecue!
**[15:15] Shinon**
Good idea, Makocchi!
Let's go shopping for a barbecue!
**[15:19] Kurea**
This place is pretty big, so it might
be better to split into two groups.
**[15:22] Kurea**
We'll meet back here in an hour
and go have a barbecue after that.
**[15:27] Tsutsuji**
Okay. Let's use rock and paper
to split into groups.
**[15:30] Tsutsuji**
Here we go.
**[15:32] girls**
Use rock and paper to split ourselves up!
**[15:40] Nana**
No! Don't abandon me! Don't leave me
alone in these uncharted lands!
**[15:45] Tsutsuji**
All right. Let's do it one more time.
**[15:51] Mako**
It's so lively!
**[15:53] Kurea**
I came here when I was little, too.
**[15:56] Kurea**
The main market moved to Toyosu a while back,
**[15:58] Kurea**
but the shops for the general
public stayed in Tsukiji.
**[16:01] Mako**
I see.
**[16:04] Kurea**
Kawai-san, was it hearing
about my shopping trips
**[16:08] Kurea**
that made you say you
wanted to go to Tsukiji?
**[16:10] Mako**
Um, yeah.
**[16:12] Kurea**
Thanks.
**[16:13] Mako**
Huh? I-I haven't done anything
worth being thanked for.
**[16:17] Kurea**
Thanks to you, I'm feeling super nostalgic.
***SIGN*** Tsukiji Seafood
**[16:30] Kurea**
Seafood inari sushi?
**[16:32] Kurea**
Want to have some?
**[16:33] Mako**
I do.
**[16:34] staff**
Here you are. Salmon roe and sea urchin.
**[16:37] Mako**
Let's eat!
**[16:41] Mako**
The salmon roe on top makes it so rich!
**[16:44] Kurea**
It's so luxurious and delicious!
**[16:46] Mako**
B-But the inari sushi place
where I work is just as good!
**[16:52] Kurea**
I'll have to go there and try some soon.
**[16:57] Shinon**
There are so many stalls,
I don't know where to look first!
**[17:00] Tsutsuji**
Want to eat something?
**[17:03] Tsutsuji**
Nana?
**[17:04] staff B**
Would you like one, miss?
**[17:06] Nana**
No, um, I, uh...
**[17:08] staff B**
We've got some good product in today!
**[17:10] staff B**
I'll give you a discount.
Just give it a taste!
**[17:13] Tsutsuji**
What are you doing, Nana?
**[17:15] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan...
**[17:17] Nana**
I thought you'd left me.
**[17:20] Shinon**
These raw oysters are huge!
They're at least 20 centimeters long!
**[17:23] Tsutsuji**
Those oysters do look delicious.
**[17:26] Tsutsuji**
Excuse me. I'll take one, please.
**[17:28] Nana**
What?
**[17:29] Shinon**
Time to put my part-time pay to use!
**[17:31] Shinon**
I'll take one, too, please!
**[17:32] Nana**
Um...
**[17:35] Nana**
Me, too, please!
**[17:43] Nana**
That was crazy delicious!
**[17:45] Shinon**
And at this size, they're filling, too.
**[17:48] Nana**
Hey, let's go look at some other places!
**[17:52] Tsutsuji**
If you get too excited,
you'll end up lost again.
**[17:56] Nana**
I'll do this, so I'll be fine!
**[17:58] Shinon**
You'll stretch my clothes.

Hey, you two! I borrowed a barbecue set,
so everyone gather up!
**[19:00] Tsutsuji**
What an extravagant spread of seafood!
**[19:03] Tsutsuji**
Oh, and since I always leave the
cooking to you, I'll tend the fire.

Really? If you don't mind, then please do.

They look so good! Let's hurry up and eat!
**[19:49] Kurea**
Well, then...
**[19:50] girls**
Time to eat!
**[19:59] Tsutsuji**
The pasta sauce and scallops
go so well together!
**[20:02] Tsutsuji**
You really are amazing, Makocchi.
**[20:04] Mako**
I saw it in one of Mokotaro's videos!
**[20:06] Shinon**
It's super yummy!
**[20:08] Shinon**
And it's perfectly grilled!
**[20:10] Nana**
That might be the one I grilled.
**[20:15] Kurea**
It tastes extra yummy
at a barbecue, doesn't it?
**[20:18] Mako**
Yeah!
**[20:19] Tsutsuji**
Barbecuing by the ocean
feels extra special, too.
**[20:21] Nana**
And all these ingredients were so fresh.
**[20:27] Shinon**
Ish sho good!

Wow...
**[21:02] Kurea**
It's beautiful.
**[21:12] Nana**
Guys! Let's go take a closer look!

All right! Let's all ride the Ferris wheel!
**[21:20] Nana**
Really? I'm down! Let me on it!
**[21:22] Kurea**
If we ride it now, we'll get home even later!
**[21:33] Tsutsuji**
The Ferris wheel was amazing, wasn't it?
**[21:36] Nana**
Right?

The view was so nice!

**[00:07] girl A**
Where do you want to go after this?
**[00:09] girl B**
That place looks super cute!
**[00:12] Nana**
The soufflé looks so good!
**[00:14] Nana**
But there might be a little more
of it than I was expecting.
**[00:17] Shinon**
Really? Looks like a normal amount.
**[00:19] Nana**
Well, I had a late breakfast.
**[00:21] Nana**
I'll give you a little.
**[00:22] Shinon**
But I ordered a dessert
for myself, too! I'll get fat!
**[00:26] server**
Thank you for waiting.
**[00:29] server**
Your Max Pancakes with berry sauce.
**[00:37] Mako**
It looks delicious!
**[00:39] Tsutsuji**
M-Makocchi, are you going
to eat all of that?
**[00:43] Mako**
Huh? Sure I am. I only had
a light lunch, so I'll be fine!
**[00:48] Kurea**
So you ate lunch, too?
**[00:50] Shinon**
W-Well, everyone's food is here, so...
**[00:53] everyone**
Time to eat!

**[02:49] Mako**
Those pancakes were so good!
**[02:52] Nana**
I'm so full.
**[02:54] Tsutsuji**
Me, too.
**[02:55] Tsutsuji**
And when I'm this full,
sleepiness creeps over me.
**[03:03] Kurea**
No, no. This is no place for sleeping.
**[03:06] Shinon**
She's right!
**[03:07] Shinon**
We came all the way to the outlet stores,
**[03:10] Shinon**
so let's shop in style
like real university girls!
**[03:12] Kurea**
Is there something in particular
you're looking for?
**[03:15] Kurea**
I want to get something summery.
**[03:18] Shinon**
Something summery, huh?
**[03:20] Shinon**
In that case, they're selling
rhinoceros beetles over there.
**[03:23] Shinon**
Want to take a look?
**[03:24] Kurea**
What happened to being a university girl?
**[03:27] Nana**
Then how about the clothing shop
where my older sister works?
**[03:31] Nana**
It's right over there.
**[03:32] Mako**
Nana-chan, you have an older sister?
**[03:35] Nana**
Yup. I'm always asking her to pick
out clothes for me from that shop.
**[03:39] Mako**
Really? I kinda want to check it out.
**[03:41] Shinon**
All right, then! Everyone,
to the clothing store!
**[03:44] Kurea**
So you're done with the rhinoceros beetles?
**[03:48] Nana**
Everyone, let me introduce you.
**[03:51] Nana**
This is my big sis.
She works here as a clerk!
**[03:55] Runa**
Hi there! Nice to meet all of you.
**[03:57] girls**
Thanks for helping us!
**[03:59] Mako; internal**
*She's a real, live gyaru.*
**[04:01] Tsutsuji**
Runa-nee, it's been a while.
**[04:03] Runa**
Hitsuji-chan, long time no see!
**[04:06] Runa**
We've got some new stuff in.
Want to give it a try?
**[04:09] Tsutsuji**
Yes, please. By all means.
**[04:11] Runa**
Okay! This way.
**[04:13] Tsutsuji**
Coming.
**[04:14] Runa**
Feel free to take a look around, friends!
**[04:16] girls**
We will!
**[04:17] Shinon**
This is so cute!
**[04:19] Nana**
It really is!
**[04:21] Kurea**
I wonder if this is a little
too mature for me.
**[04:23] Kurea**
Oh, hey!
**[04:24] Kurea**
I think this skirt would look
nice on you, Kawai-san.
**[04:27] Mako**
Do you think so?
**[04:29] Shinon**
Oh, looks good! Makocchi,
why don't you go try it on?
**[04:33] Mako**
O-Okay.
**[04:35] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan, did you finish dressing?
**[04:43] Tsutsuji**
What do you think?
**[04:46] Runa**
I like it! Nice and summery.
**[04:59] Mako**
Huh? That's strange.
**[05:11] Mako**
I can't zip it up.
**[05:13] Mako**
No, no. I just got the wrong size, that's all.
**[05:18] Mako**
Nope, it's my usual size.
**[05:20] Mako**
But that means...
**[05:23] Mako**
Could it be I've gained some weight?
**[05:26] Runa**
How's the sizing?
**[05:29] Mako**
What? Um... It's perfect!
**[05:30] Nana; background**
What do you think?
**[05:31] Tsutsuji; background**
Oh, I like it. It suits you.
**[05:34] Nana**
Come visit my sister's shop again sometime!
**[05:36] Tsutsuji**
I'm glad you found some clothes that suit you.
**[05:37] Kurea; background**
I will! It was fun!
**[05:39] Shinon; background**
Yeah!
**[05:39] Mako**
Y-Yeah. Me, too.
**[05:40] Kurea; background**
I bought way too much!
**[05:58] Mako**
I need to go on a diet.
**[06:04] clerk**
We'll be putting you on the university
site that showcases our clubs,
**[06:08] clerk**
so we'd like you to write up an introduction.
**[06:10] Shinon**
Right...
**[06:11] Kurea**
An introduction, huh?
**[06:13] clerk**
And we'd also like photos
to post on the site.
**[06:16] Kurea**
All right.
**[06:17] clerk**
I'll leave it with you.
**[06:20] clerk**
Oh, right. What will you be
doing over summer break?
**[06:23] clerk**
Do you have any activities planned?
**[06:25] Kurea**
Uh, nothing in particu—
**[06:26] Shinon**
Oh, oh! Over here!
**[06:28] Shinon**
We'd *love* to organize
some summer activities!
**[06:30] clerk**
I see. In that case, please submit
a written proposal in advance.
**[06:35] clerk**
And don't forget the other applications
needed as part of the process.
**[06:39] clerk**
Overseas travel needs to be
authorized a month in advance,
**[06:42] clerk**
and domestic travel a week in advance,
so please don't forget that, either.
**[06:46] Shinon**
Thanks in advance!
**[06:47] Kurea**
Why me?!
**[06:48] Nana**
There you are!
**[06:50] Nana**
This is big! Huge!
**[06:52] Kurea**
Nana?
**[06:53] Shinon**
What happened? Why are you so worked up?
**[06:55] Nana**
Makocchan... Our Makocchan...
**[06:58] Shinon**
Did something happen to Makocchi?
**[07:01] Nana**
Makocchan isn't eating snacks anymore!
**[07:07] Kurea**
What happened?
**[07:10] Mako**
Th-The truth is... I couldn't fit into
the skirt I bought the other day.
**[07:15] Mako**
I haven't weighed myself in
a while, but when I did...
**[07:18] Kurea**
Ah, I see. You're on a diet.
**[07:20] Mako**
I want to slim down for university,
at the very least...

**[07:29] Mako**
The only one crying right now is my stomach.
**[07:33] Nana**
All right! That settles it!
**[07:35] Nana**
I haven't been getting enough exercise,
so let's exercise together!
**[07:39] Nana**
There's a sports gym near campus.
Do the rest of you want to join us?
**[07:44] Kurea**
It turns out we have some paperwork to do.
**[07:47] Shinon**
Why does that clerk always come
to you and me for this stuff?
**[07:50] Shinon**
Could it be my magnetic personality?
**[07:53] Tsutsuji**
Oh, I think I know why.
**[07:55] Tsutsuji**
It's probably because you're the president
of the club, and Kurea's the vice president.
**[08:00] Shinon**
What?
**[08:00] Kurea**
That's news to me.
**[08:04] Tsutsuji**
After I submitted our club application,
**[08:06] Tsutsuji**
the clerk asked me about club officers,
**[08:09] Tsutsuji**
so I just gave her your names.
**[08:12] Kurea**
Why didn't you check with us first?
**[08:14] Tsutsuji**
Um... Well, because...
**[08:20] Tsutsuji**
That would have been too much effort.
**[08:23] Kurea**
Nana.
**[08:24] Kurea**
Make sure Tsutsuji gets lots of exercise!
**[08:26] Tsutsuji**
Huh?
**[08:27] Nana**
Okay!
**[08:27] Tsutsuji**
Um, I...
**[08:29] Tsutsuji**
I'm not the exercising type.
**[08:30] Nana**
That's exactly why you gotta train with us!
**[08:33] Nana**
All right, Makocchan, Hitsuji-chan!
**[08:36] Nana**
Starting tomorrow, we're hitting the gym!
**[08:39] Mako**
R-Right!
**[08:40] Tsutsuji**
H-Have mercy...
**[08:45] Mokotaro**
* Everyone! Today, we'll be having*
* award-winning sukiyaki, mo—*
**[08:53] Mako**
This is bad. I keep thinking about food.
**[09:04] Mako**
No, no! Nana-chan and Tsutsuji-chan
are both going to help me!
**[09:08] Mako**
I have to work hard and lose some weight!
**[09:10] Mako**
Okay. Gonna give it my all!
**[09:16] Nana**
Wow! There's all kinds of equipment here!
**[09:19] Mako**
Where do we start?
**[09:22] Mako**
I'm going to go run on the treadmill.
**[09:25] Nana**
Got it! We'll be nearby,
doing some weight training.
**[09:37] Nana**
All right!
**[10:04] Nana**
I think that might've built me some muscle!
**[10:06] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan! I went and trained my arms!
**[10:09] Tsutsuji**
That machine wasn't for training your arms.
**[10:14] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan, where did you
find that huge balance ball?
**[10:18] Tsutsji**
It was in the communal use booth.
**[10:20] Tsutsji**
Apparently, you can train your core with this.
**[10:23] Tsutsji**
Watch.
**[10:24] Tsutsji**
Hup!
**[10:25] Nana**
Wow! That's amazing!
**[10:29] Nana**
Huh? Hitsuji-chan disappeared!
**[10:32] Tsutsji**
I-I see. So this is the true nature
of the balance ball.
**[10:36] Nana**
Oh, there she is.
**[10:42] Nana**
Makocchan sure is working hard.
**[10:44] Tsutsuji**
Among us Three Weakling Musketeers,
**[10:47] Tsutsuji**
she's the closest we have to a star player.
**[10:50] Nana**
I'm gonna go see how she's doing.
**[10:54] Nana**
Makocchan, you sure are working hard.
**[10:57] Nana**
Huh?
**[10:59] Mako**
H-Help me.
**[11:02] Mako**
I've hit my limit...
**[11:05] Mako**
but... I don't know how to stop it.
**[11:08] Nana**
How to stop it?!
**[11:09] Nana**
There's nothing on the display?
**[11:11] Mako**
Th-There's nothing anywhere.
**[11:18] Nana**
Makocchan!

**[11:25] Shinon**
My landlord gave me these hamburger coupons,
**[11:29] Shinon**
but Makocchi's on a diet,
so it'd be hard for all of us to go.
**[11:33] Kurea**
You could go by yourself,
or maybe give them to someone?
**[11:39] Shinon**
It's from Tsutsuji.
**[11:40] Kurea**
What'd she say?
**[11:44] Shinon**
She says the Three Weakling
Musketeers have no star player.
**[11:48] Kurea**
What's that supposed to mean?
**[11:55] Shinon**
Kurea, your room is girlier
than I thought it'd be!
**[11:58] Kurea**
Jeez, stop staring at everything.
**[12:00] Kurea**
Let's hurry up and get that paperwork done.
**[12:05] Kurea**
I'll do the typing on my laptop.
You come up with an introduction.
**[12:09] Shinon**
That's easy for you to say.
**[12:11] Kurea**
Give it your best shot, President.
**[12:13] Shinon**
An introduction, huh? Hmm...
**[12:16] Shinon**
"Our Food Culture Research club
started out as a club in name only, but—"
**[12:20] Kurea**
Vetoed! Vetoed!
**[12:21] Kurea**
We're going to have to turn this in,
so get serious about it.
**[12:25] Shinon**
It's the truth, though.
**[12:26] Kurea**
Come on. Once we're done,
I'll have Mom make us dinner.
**[12:31] Shinon**
Ooh! Now I'm motivated!
**[12:33] Shinon**
Leave it to me, celery!
**[12:37] Kurea**
There. I think that'll work for the homepage.
**[12:41] Shinon**
For pictures, we can use stuff
we've already taken, right?
**[12:45] Kurea**
So all that's left is the proposal
for our summer activities.
**[12:48] Kurea**
If you'd just kept your big mouth shut,
we'd be done already.
**[12:51] Shinon**
What? Don't you want to do
something over summer?
**[12:55] Shinon**
Plus, Makocchi and the others were nice
enough to join the club we made, you know?
**[13:01] Shinon**
If nothing else, I want us to do
something fun for their sake.
**[13:05] Kurea**
Well, yeah...
**[13:09] Kurea**
All right, fine. What'll we be doing?
**[13:12] Shinon**
Let's see... Let's see...
**[13:14] Shinon**
Training camp in the mountains?
Or at the beach? Or by a river?
***SIGN*** Takao Diner
**[13:17] Kurea**
Anything that isn't a training camp?
**[13:38] Mako**
I worked up a good sweat.
**[13:41] Nana**
Makocchan, you're not
gonna be sore later, are you?
**[13:44] Mako**
N-Nah, I'll be fine.
**[13:46] Nana**
I'm impressed.
**[13:48] Nana**
My arms were killing me
after gym the other day.
**[13:52] Nana**
But that just shows it's working, right?
No pain, no gain!
**[13:55] Tsutsuji**
Nana, you haven't gotten
any gains in the first place.
**[13:58] Nana**
Never mind that. Let's go take a shower!
**[14:01] Mako**
Count me in. I'm all sticky with sweat.
**[14:09] Mako**
This bathwater is great.
**[14:11] Nana**
It's bringing me back to life.
**[14:13] Tsutsuji**
You know, baths are lovely,
**[14:16] Tsutsuji**
but there's something I've been
wanting to try for a while now.
**[14:19] Mako**
We might just be thinking
about the same thing.
**[14:23] Tsutsuji**
Then shall we go give it a try?
**[14:27] Mako**
I-It's hot!
**[14:29] Nana**
So this is a sauna!
**[14:33] Mako**
This is my first time in one.
**[14:35] Nana**
Mine, too.
**[14:36] Tsutsuji**
And mine, as well.
**[14:37] Nana**
Should we compete to see
who can stay in the longest?
**[14:40] Mako**
No way. I'd lose for sure.
**[15:09] Mako**
I-It really is hot in here.
**[15:11] Nana**
What should we do? Get out?
**[15:14] Mako**
I think I could stay just a little longer.
**[15:27] Mako**
Tsutsuji-chan, are you all right?
**[15:29] Tsutsuji**
I-I'm fine.
**[15:32] Tsutsuji**
I'm just feeling a little flushed, is all.
**[15:38] Tsutsuji**
On second thought, I'm getting out!
**[15:44] Mako**
It's cold!
**[15:45] Nana**
They say to repeat this cycle a few times.
**[16:01] Mako**
Bathing in the outside air feels nice.
**[16:04] Nana**
Right?
**[16:06] Mako**
I want to eat ice cream,
but I have to hold myself back.
**[16:09] Nana**
It's not good to hold back too much.
**[16:24] Tsutsuji**
Energy-fied!
**[16:35] Nana**
Looks like she's reached bath enlightenment.
**[16:38] Nana**
All right, Makocchan, see you later!
**[16:41] Tsutsuji**
Goodbye, then.
**[16:42] Mako**
Okay, I'll see you both later.
**[16:49] Mako; internal**
*Right!*
**[16:50] Mako; internal**
* My mind feels sharper,*
* and my body feels much lighter!*
**[16:58] Mako**
I-It zipped up!
**[17:01] Mako**
I did it! The skirt fits!
**[17:05] Mako**
I've passed the first hurdle!
**[17:08] Mako**
I know! I'll reward myself with a snack!
**[17:15] Mako**
No.
**[17:15] Mako**
My goal is to get back to the weight
I was when I started university.
**[17:20] Mako**
I can't go easy on myself now.
**[17:22] Mako**
This is still... nowhere near enough!
**[17:28] clerk**
Yes, this all seems to be in order.
**[17:33] Shinon**
All right! We're done!
**[17:35] Shinon**
Kurea, let's go to the club room!
**[17:37] clerk**
Oh, just a minute.
**[17:38] Kurea**
Huh? Is something wrong?
**[17:40] clerk**
It's about the photos for the homepage.
These are all good photos,
**[17:45] clerk**
but seeing as you're the
Food Culture Research Club,
**[17:48] clerk**
I'd like a photo of you all
around a table sharing a meal.
**[17:52] clerk**
Can you do that?
**[18:01] Mako**
D-Doing a morning marathon after eating
only bean sprouts might have been a bit much.
**[18:08] Mako**
Good morning, everyone.
**[18:13] Mako**
Huh? What is this feeling in the air?
**[18:18] Shinon**
Um, the thing is...
**[18:22] Mako**
What? You're going out to eat hamburgers?
**[18:25] Shinon**
So far, we've just been
taking photos of our food,
**[18:28] Shinon**
but the clerk said she'd like
pictures of us eating, too.
**[18:33] Shinon**
Sorry to drop this on you, but we were
wondering if you could come, too...
**[18:37] Mako**
Hamburgers...
**[18:42] Mako**
B-But I'm supposed to be dieting.
**[18:45] Shinon**
I know, but...
**[18:47] Tsutsuji**
Well, you have been working hard on your diet.
**[18:51] Tsutsuji**
I understand your hesitation.
**[18:53] Mako**
Y-You get it, right, Tsutsuji-chan?
**[18:55] Tsutsuji**
But there's a phrase I want to introduce to you.
**[18:59] Mako**
A-A phrase? What is it?
**[19:05] Tsutsuji**
"Cheat day."
**[19:38] Mako**
I-Is it really okay for me to eat this?
**[19:40] Tsutsuji**
This is your cheat day. To make sure
you don't push yourself too hard.
**[19:43] Shinon**
And since we're taking photos, we went all-out!
**[20:09] Kurea**
A-Are you crying?!
**[20:12] Mako**
It's delicious. It's so delicious!
**[20:15] Mako**
I want to eat more. May I eat more?
**[20:19] Shinon**
You can! Of course you can!
I'll take photos, so eat lots!
**[20:48] Mako**
This is pure bliss.
**[20:50] Nana**
Right?
**[20:51] Tsutsuji**
Oh, Makocchi.
**[20:53] Tsutsuji**
I saw a place near the gym that
looked like it had good food.
**[20:57] Tsutsuji**
Shall we stop by next time?
**[21:00] Tsutsuji**
It's not good to limit your
food intake too much, either.
**[21:03] Tsutsuji**
Exercise in moderation.
Enjoy food in moderation.
**[21:07] Tsutsuji**
That's all you need to do.
**[21:09] Tsutsuji**
I'll keep going with you to the gym, too.
**[21:15] Mako**
Okay. Thanks, Tsutsuji-chan!
**[21:19] Kurea**
All right! Thanks to all of you,
we have photos to put on the homepage,
**[21:24] Kurea**
so let's finish up with one
of all five of us eating!
**[21:26] Shinon**
There we go.
**[21:29] Mako**
I already ate everything, though.
**[21:32] Tsutsuji**
Makocchi, there are still some fries left.
**[21:36] Kurea**
Okay, here we go!
**[21:39] Kurea**
Ready, and...
**[21:41] everyone**
Thanks for the feast!

**[00:11] (Flashback) Shinon**
Hey, how much money do you guys have?
**[00:15] (Flashback) Hiyori**
I have a hundred yen.
**[00:16] (Flashback) Yuna**
I have fifty yen.
**[00:18] (Flashback) Hiyori**
Makocchi, how about you?
**[00:20] (Flashback) Mako**
I only have fifty yen, too.
**[00:22] (Flashback) Mako**
What about you, Oshinko?
**[00:23] (Flashback) Shinon**
Oshinko has...
**[00:26] (Flashback) Shinon**
four acorns!
**[00:27] (Flashback) Mako**
You can't buy anything with acorns.
**[00:31] (Flashback) Yuna**
I wanted to eat a parfait.
**[00:33] (Flashback) Mako**
Me, too.
**[00:36] (Flashback) Mako**
Do you want to make cookies
at my house instead?
**[00:39] (Flashback) Shinon**
Makocchi, you can make cookies?
**[00:41] (Flashback) Hiyori**
You're amazing!
**[00:44] (Flashback) Mako**
I can't bake them, but if we ask
my mom, I'm sure she'll help!
**[00:49] (Flashback) Hiyori**
How about it, Yuna? Cookies, she says!
**[00:52] (Flashback) Yuna**
I wanna eat Makocchi's cookies!
**[00:55] (Flashback) Shinon**
Okay, then! To Makocchi's house!
**[00:58] (Flashback) Shinon**
Full steam ahead!
**[01:00] (Flashback) Hiyori; Yuna**
Yeah!
**[01:02] (Flashback) Mako**
Guys, wait for me!
**[01:05] (Flashback) Mako**
I can't run that fast!
**[01:08] (Flashback) Mako**
Wait!
***SIGN*** Club camp!
**[01:22] Mako**
I was dreaming?
***SIGN*** Episode 7 "I Don't Think I'll Ever Forget"
***SIGN*** Episode 7 "I Don't Think I'll Ever Forget"
**[02:56] Mako**
Then I dreamed about that time
**[02:59] Mako**
in elementary school when we couldn't
afford parfaits, so we made cookies.
**[03:03] Shinon**
Oh, yeah. That did happen.
**[03:06] Mako**
I also remembered that you used to refer
to yourself in third person back then.
**[03:10] Mako**
It brought back so many memories!
**[03:11] Shinon**
I spoke in third person as a kid?
**[03:14] Shinon**
Right, I said...
**[03:17] Shinon**
Oshin—This was a trap, wasn't it, Makocchi?
**[03:20] Mako**
S-Sorry.
**[03:22] Tsutsuji**
Nana, you used to cry sometimes
**[03:24] Tsutsuji**
when you didn't have enough
money to buy puzzles, right?
**[03:27] Nana**
Oh, yeah. That brings back memories.
**[03:31] Mako**
Really? How cute! How long ago was that?
**[03:34] Nana**
Last year.
**[03:36] Mako**
Last year?
**[03:37] Shinon**
All that aside, we start our camp tomorrow!
**[03:39] Shinon**
Make sure you're not late!
**[03:41] Nana**
We know.
**[03:43] Tsutsuji**
I'm looking forward to it.
**[03:54] Mako**
Camp begins tomorrow...
**[03:57] Mako; internal**
* Now that I think about it, Furutachi-san*
* had kind of a lonely look on her face today.*
**[04:02] Mako; interal**
*I wonder if something happened.*
***SIGN*** Hachiōji Station
**[04:08] Shinon**
It's time for camp!
**[04:10] girls**
Yeah!
**[04:12] Shinon**
Today begins the long-awaited
Food Culture Research Club camp!
**[04:16] Shinon**
Let's give it everything we've got!
**[04:18] Shinon**
Tsutsuji-san! Let me hear your enthusiasm!
**[04:21] Tsutsuji**
Enthusiasm!
**[04:23] Shinon**
Excellent!
**[04:24] Shinon**
Now, let's all sound off! One!
**[04:26] Kurea**
Everyone's here.
**[04:28] Nana**
So, do we know which station
we're headed to from here?
**[04:32] Shinon**
Don't worry! I've got it all figured out.
**[04:35] Shinon; background**
First, we'll take the train that
leaves from here in thirty minutes,
**[04:35] Mako**
Shinon-chan is even more fired up than usual.
**[04:38] Shinon; background**
and whoosh all the way to Atami!
**[04:39] Kurea**
She sure is.
**[04:40] Tsutsuji; background**
I see.
**[04:40] Kurea**
As the club's founder,
she wants everyone to have fun.
**[04:41] Shinon; background**
Then we'll change trains and ride
one with a view of the ocean!
**[04:44] Nana; background**
The ocean? Wow! I'm so going swimming!
**[04:46] Mako**
So that's why.
**[04:48] Shinon**
And just look at this cloudless blue sky!
**[04:52] Shinon**
I tend to bring the rain with me, so I've
never had such good weather on a trip before.
**[04:56] Tsutsuji**
Shouldn't we be on our way?
**[04:59] Shinon**
You're right!
**[05:00] Shinon**
Okay. To the station! The station!
**[05:03] Mako; internal**
* I hope it stays sunny like this*
* for our whole trip.*
**[05:12] Shinon**
And now, we'll change to a
retro train at this station.
**[05:16] Tsutsuji**
A retro train? Let's hurry up, then!
**[05:19] Kurea**
Yeah!
**[05:21] Nana**
Hey, um...
**[05:23] Nana**
Makocchan is staring fiercely
at those bento boxes.
***SIGN*** Station
Bento
**[05:28] Tsutsuji**
Those are the eyes of a black kite
focused on its prey.
**[05:32] Shinon**
We still have time, so why don't we buy some?
**[05:37] Shinon**
The train's here!
**[05:46] Tsutsuji**
Oh, it looks really cool.
**[05:48] Kurea**
It's so exciting!
**[05:54] Mako**
It's pretty on the inside, too!
**[05:56] Shinon**
Let's sit here!
**[05:58] Tsutsuji**
If the seats are in pairs,
one of us will have to sit alone.
**[06:02] Shinon**
Should we use rock-paper-scissors to decide?
**[06:05] Nana**
What? I don't wanna sit alone!
**[06:09] Shinon**
My dear Nana, sometimes we
face trials we cannot avoid.
**[06:13] Shinon**
And I have absolutely no intention
of sitting alone, either!
**[06:17] Shinon**
Now, let's decide this fair and square!
**[06:19] Nana**
You're serious?
**[06:21] Shinon**
Okay, everyone, here we go!
**[06:23] Shinon**
Rock, paper—
**[06:27] Mako**
You think it's all right for
me to eat my bento now?
**[06:30] Kurea**
It's too soon!
**[06:32] Tsutsuji**
Before we head to the bungalow,
we'll be going sightseeing.
**[06:35] Nana**
Really? Where?
**[06:37] Tsutsuji**
Shinon, where are we going, again?
**[06:41] Shinon**
Let's see...
**[07:15] [SONG] text**
Shimoda Hot Springs
Kaiyu Foot Bath
**[07:47] Nana**
This is the bungalow where
we're staying the night?
**[07:50] Kurea**
That's right.
**[07:52] Kurea**
There's a pizza oven in the back,
so that's what we'll be making today!
**[07:56] Nana**
I can't wait!
**[07:58] Shinon**
Let's hurry up and go in!
**[08:11] Nana**
This room is so beautiful!
**[08:14] Shinon**
I worked really hard to
find us a good bungalow.
**[08:17] Kurea**
After we rest a little, do you want
to start prepping to make pizza?
**[08:21] Mako**
Yeah. I'd like to give the dough
some time to rest, too.
**[08:29] Shinon**
What's wrong, Tsutsuji?
**[08:31] Tsutsuji**
Rain.
**[08:32] Shinon**
What? No way!
**[08:34] Shinon**
Oh, no! It really is rain! But why?
It was clear just a second ago!
**[08:39] Kurea**
And it's starting to come down pretty hard.
**[08:42] Kurea**
I don't think we'll be able to use
the pizza oven in this rain.
**[08:47] Mako**
We were going to make curry tomorrow,
**[08:50] Mako**
so should we do that today instead?
**[08:52] Nana**
But will it clear up by tomorrow?
**[08:54] Tsutsuji**
We were planning to swim
in the ocean then, too.
**[08:58] Shinon**
Say it isn't so!
**[09:08] Tsutsuji**
Nothing beats an energy drink
at your journey's destination!
**[09:13] Kurea**
They're gonna air that movie
that was a big hit not long ago.
**[09:16] Kurea**
Should we all watch it on TV together?
**[09:18] Mako**
Yeah!
**[09:19] Shinon**
A movie, huh?
**[09:21] Shinon**
We can't stay gloomy
just because it's raining.
**[09:24] Shinon**
Why don't we have a watch party?
**[09:26] Tsutsuji**
Nana, are you watching the movie, too?
**[09:28] Nana**
There's a movie? Count me in!
**[09:30] Shinon**
Wait, who are you?
**[09:33] Nana**
Nana. Um, I'm Nana.
**[09:35] Shinon**
Oh. I've never seen your
hair like that before.
**[10:16] Shinon**
It's still raining.
**[10:18] Kurea**
Yeah.
**[10:20] Shinon**
Somehow, I always bring the rain
whenever I go on overnight trips.
**[10:26] Shinon**
School trips, family trips,
it doesn't matter. It rains every time.
**[10:31] Mako**
Now that you mention it, I think it rained
on our elementary school trip, too.
**[10:35] Shinon**
See?
**[10:37] Tsutsuji**
Rain...
**[10:39] Tsutsuji**
This reminds me of how our high school sports
day got postponed by rain a bunch of times.
**[10:45] Tsutsuji**
We ended up having to hold it
at a nearby municipal gymnasium.
**[10:49] Tsutsuji**
I remember, when Nana ran in the relay...
**[11:12] Shinon**
What? Seriously? That actually happened?
**[11:16] Tsutsuji**
I can still hear the sound of the rain
mixing with the screams from that day.
**[11:19] Nana**
Hey, Hitsuji-chan, why would you
just tell them that out of the blue?
**[11:24] Tsutsuji**
Nana, what happened after that?
**[11:26] Nana**
I don't know.
**[11:29] Shinon**
Hey, Kurea, what was your high school like?
**[11:32] Kurea**
What? Mine?
**[11:34] Tsutsuji**
Come to think of it, we haven't heard
any high school stories from you.
**[11:39] Nana**
I wanna hear some!
**[11:45] Kurea**
My high school was really strict.
**[11:48] Kurea**
We did academic achievement

**[11:52] Nana**
What? No way!
**[11:53] Kurea**
It's true! Not to mention...
**[12:09] Shinon**
Everyone!
**[12:11] Shinon**
The sky's super clear!
**[12:15] Shinon**
Hey! Hey! Hey, hey, hey!
**[12:16] Kurea**
What?
**[12:18] Shinon**
It's clear!
**[12:19] Shinon**
We can go to the beach! We can eat pizza!
**[12:23] Mako**
Oh, it really is.
**[12:24] Shinon**
Hurry up! Let's go to the beach!
**[12:26] Kurea**
Lemme sleep some more...
**[12:37] Mako**
Oh, good morning, Furutachi-san.
**[12:40] Kurea**
Morning!
**[12:41] Mako**
Setting things up for the pizza?
**[12:42] Kurea**
Yeah.
**[12:44] Kurea**
I thought I should prep the
dough now, while I can.
**[12:47] Mako**
I'll help.
**[12:54] Mako**
Um, Furutachi-san?
**[12:58] Mako**
Last night, when we were all talking,
was there something on your mind?
**[13:02] Kurea**
Huh? Why do you ask?
**[13:04] Mako**
It's just... You looked sort of lonely.
**[13:08] Kurea**
Oh, um...
**[13:11] Kurea**
Well, it's honestly just a silly little thing.
**[13:17] Kurea**
You and Shinon are childhood friends,
**[13:20] Kurea**
and Tsutsuji and Nana
are old classmates, right?
**[13:22] Mako**
Right.
**[13:23] Kurea**
All of the classmates I was close to
went to different universities.
**[13:29] Kurea**
So I was thinking it must be nice to be able
to share stories about the past like that.
**[13:36] Mako**
I'm sorry. I had no idea.
**[13:39] Kurea**
Oh, no! There's no need to apologize!
**[13:43] Kurea**
It's just what I was thinking!
It's not anyone's fault!
**[13:46] Kurea**
Sorry. It was a weird thing to bring up.
**[13:49] Kurea**
Forget I said anything, okay?
**[13:59] Shinon**
The ocean's so beautiful!
**[14:00] Tsutsuji**
I'm glad the sun came out.
**[14:07] Nana**
Yay! Woohoo!
**[14:15] Mako**
It's so cold!
**[14:16] Kurea**
But it feels great!
**[14:20] Nana**
What are you two doing?
**[14:23] Nana**
Just jump in!
**[14:26] Mako**
I-I'm going to acclimate a little more!
**[14:28] Nana**
You'll be fine!
**[14:30] Nana**
Watch me!
**[14:47] Mako**
A-Are you all right, Nana-chan?
**[15:02] Tsutsuji**
This feels so good.
**[15:06] Shinon**
Tsutsuji! There was a starfish down there!
**[15:08] Shinon**
I'll give it to you!
**[15:10] Tsutsuji**
No, thank you.
**[15:12] Shinon**
She doesn't want you. Bye-bye!
**[15:15] Tsutsuji**
Shinon.
**[15:16] Shinon**
What?
**[15:18] Tsutsuji**
I'm sorry for making you the
president without asking.
**[15:21] Shinon**
Huh? It's fine!
**[15:23] Tsutsuji**
I really appreciate you
planning this trip for us.
**[15:27] Tsutsuji**
I've had a lot of fun, all thanks to you.
**[15:33] Shinon**
R-Really?
**[15:36] Shinon**
Gosh, you can't just spring
something like that on me...
**[15:39] Shinon**
You're gonna make me blush!
**[15:42] Tsutsuji**
You've done it now.
**[15:44] Tsutsuji**
It's your turn!
**[15:46] Mako**
We have juice! Anyone want some?
**[15:49] Shinon**
Oh, I do!
**[16:00] Tsutsuji**
The pizza oven's lit and ready.
**[16:02] Mako**
Thanks, Tsutsuji-chan.
**[16:05] Kurea**
Good work! We'll handle the rest.
**[16:08] Shinon**
Oh, will you play the ukulele?
**[16:11] Tsutsuji**
Sure. Leave it to me.
**[16:13] Mako**
All right, everyone. Shall we start cooking?
**[17:16] Shinon**
The pizzas look so good!
**[17:17] Tsutsuji**
They baked up really well.
**[17:20] Nana**
It all smells amazing!
**[17:22] Shinon**
All right, then!
**[17:24] girls**
Time to eat!
**[17:46] Nana**
It's so good!
**[18:01] Nana**
I'm so full!
**[18:03] girls**
Thanks for the feast!

**[18:08] Tsutsuji**
What are we doing next?
**[18:11] Shinon**
Why don't we go explore nearby?
**[18:13] Kurea**
I'm going to take it easy.
**[18:26] Kurea**
The stars are beautiful, aren't they?
**[18:29] Mako**
Yeah. They might even be prettier
here than in my hometown.
**[18:33] Kurea**
Is your hometown in the countryside?
**[18:38] Mako**
It's a residential area that's sort
of on the outskirts of a town.
**[18:46] Mako**
U-Um, Furutachi-san?
**[18:50] Mako**
About the stories we were
sharing yesterday...
**[18:53] Mako**
In elementary school, I had
Shinon-chan and other friends,
**[18:59] Mako**
and we'd play together every day.
**[19:02] Mako**
But then I went to a different
middle school than them,
**[19:06] Mako**
and I didn't fit in very well,
**[19:10] Mako**
so I don't have many memories of it.
**[19:13] Mako**
But ever since you gave me the
push I needed to join this club,
**[19:19] Mako**
I can be with friends every day,
just like how I used to be,
**[19:22] Mako**
going to all kinds of places
and eating all kinds of things.
**[19:27] Mako**
S-So, just like those
elementary school memories...
**[19:34] Mako**
I don't think I'll ever forget all
the things we do in this club.
**[19:40] Mako**
I-I mean...
**[19:43] Mako**
Eventually, we'll share all
these things as memories, too,
**[19:45] Mako**
so I don't think you should let it bother you.
**[19:48] Mako**
That is to say... How do I put it? Um...
**[19:52] Kurea**
Were you worrying about that this whole time?
**[19:55] Mako**
Huh? What?
**[19:57] Kurea**
I did say it was just a silly little thing.
**[20:01] Kurea**
It's not that big a deal. Really.
**[20:05] Kurea**
I just felt a little...
**[20:07] Kurea**
lonely, I guess. That's all.
**[20:11] Kurea**
Still, thank you.
**[20:15] Kurea**
For worrying about me.
**[20:19] Shinon**
Hey, you two!
**[20:22] Shinon**
They're supposed to be having a fireworks
display over there! Let's go see it!
**[20:26] Nana**
Hurry up!
**[20:28] Kurea**
What? Where are we going?
**[20:30] Shinon**
To the other side of that mountain there!
**[20:32] Nana**
Dash! Dash!
**[20:34] Tsutsuji**
If you rush, you'll trip and fall!
**[20:34] Kurea**
Hey, wait!
**[20:36] Kurea**
And they're gone.
**[20:38] Kurea**
Honestly, those three...
**[20:43] Kurea**
You know what?
**[20:45] Mako**
What?
**[20:46] Kurea**
I'll never forget this club, either.
**[20:52] Kurea**
So let's...
**[20:54] Kurea**
make lots more memories, Mako!
**[21:00] Kurea**
Let's hurry up and go see the fireworks!
**[21:05] Mako**
Okay, Kurea-chan!
**[21:21] Mako; internal**
* I feel like I've seen this sight before*
* somewhere, a long time ago.*
**[21:26] Mako; internal**
*When could it have been?*
**[21:43] Mako; internal**
*Oh, that's right.*
**[21:44] Mako; internal**
*It's just like back then!*
**[22:02] Shinon**
It's so pretty!
**[22:03] Nana**
Oh! There's another one!
**[22:05] Tsutsuji**
A splendid sight.
**[22:08] Kurea**
I'm glad we could all
come on this trip together.
**[22:13] Mako**
Yeah!

**[02:44] Nana**
I slept so well!
**[02:47] Nana**
Morning, Pochi. Today is
your check-up today at the—
**[02:50] Nana**
Huh? The cage is open?
**[02:54] Nana**
Pochi?
**[03:07] Nana**
Pochi! Where are you?!
**[03:09] Nana**
What? How? Where are you?
Pochi, where are you?!
**[03:13] Nana**
Not here!
**[03:14] Nana**
Not here...
**[03:15] Nana**
Not here... Not here...
**[03:18] Nana**
Not here!
**[03:20] Nana**
I've never forgotten to latch
the cage door before.
**[03:24] Nana**
It must be because I stayed up so late.
**[03:30] Nana**
The door to my room is open, too...
**[03:33] Nana**
Don't tell me he's gone outside.
**[03:41] Nana**
It's shut.
**[03:43] Nana**
So he must still be in the house.
**[03:46] Nana**
He's not on the second floor...
**[03:49] Nana**
so I have to search the first floor.
**[03:55] Nana; internal**
*Not here, either!*
**[03:57] Nana; internal**
*Please, show yourself, Pochi!*
**[03:59] Runa**
You're finally awake, huh, Nana?
**[04:03] Runa**
Huh? Why'd you yelp like that?
**[04:07] Nana**
N-No reason.
**[04:09] Runa**
Pochi's going to the vet today,
right? Don't forget!
**[04:12] Nana**
I-I won't.
**[04:14] Runa**
Still...
**[04:15] Runa**
You know I'm not great around Pochi,
so make absolutely sure you don't let him out!
**[04:20] Nana**
O-Of course! Of course! Don't worry!
**[04:22] Runa**
You don't need to shout.
**[04:25] Runa**
Oh, Mom set out some cake
for us in the living room.
**[04:28] Runa**
You should come have some, too.
**[04:30] Nana**
Um, okay.
**[04:31] Nana; internal**
*This is bad! Really bad!*
**[04:33] Nana; internal**
* If she finds out Pochi escaped,*
* she's gonna be so mad at me!*
**[04:36] Nana; internal**
*I have to find Pochi before my sister does!*
**[04:44] Nana**
M-Morning.
**[04:46] Nana's mom**
Morning, Nana. Though it's already afternoon.
**[04:49] Nana's mom**
I bought some good black tea and cake.
**[04:51] Nana's mom**
Won't you join us?
**[04:53] Nana**
O-Okay.
**[04:58] Nana; internal**
* This is no time for tea!*
* Where are you, Pochi?*
**[05:05] Nana; internal**
*Found him!*
**[05:07] Runa**
What's wrong?
**[05:10] Nana**
Some tea... went down the wrong way.
**[05:13] Nana's mom**
Are you all right?
**[05:14] Runa**
That's what happens when you
drink too fast. Be careful, okay?
**[05:18] Nana**
Yeah, you're right.
**[05:21] Nana; internal**
* Pochi, of all the places*
* you could have ended up...*
**[05:23] Nana; internal**
* I have to catch him*
* without anyone noticing!*
**[05:26] Nana; internal**
*Please don't move until my sister leaves!*
**[05:31] Runa**
This tea is so good!
I think I'll have another cup!
**[05:39] Runa**
What? You've been acting
awfully strange today.
**[05:42] Nana**
Oh, uh... It's nothing.
**[05:45] Nana; internal**
* Pochi, don't tell me you think her*
* swaying earring is a butterfly in flight!*
**[05:50] Nana; internal**
*I have to make sure her earrings don't move.*
**[05:53] Nana; internal**
*Okay.*
**[05:55] Nana**
Hey, Sis, those earrings sure are cute.
**[05:59] Nana**
You think I could borrow them for today?
**[06:00] Runa**
These are for pierced ears,
so you can't wear them.
**[06:05] Nana**
In that case... Just don't move
your head at all, okay?
**[06:09] Runa**
Huh? Why?
**[06:10] Nana**
It's, uh... the proper etiquette
for drinking black tea.
**[06:13] Runa**
I've never heard that one before.
**[06:15] Runa**
I have to go to work after this,
so I don't have time to play games.
**[06:21] Nana**
Wait! If you move your head,
the butterflies...
**[06:24] Nana**
The butterflies will take flight!
**[06:26] Runa**
What?
**[06:27] Nana**
Okay, what about a straw?
**[06:29] Nana**
If you use a straw, you can drink
your tea without moving your head!
**[06:32] Runa**
This is hot tea, though.
**[06:33] Nana**
You can blow bubbles in it to cool it down!
**[06:36] Runa**
What happened to proper etiquette?
**[06:38] Nana**
All right.
**[06:39] Nana**
In that case... will you hear out
my once-in-a-lifetime request?
**[06:43] Runa**
What?
**[06:44] Nana**
Will you play red light,
green light with me?
**[06:47] Runa**
That's really the once-in-a-lifetime
request you want to make?
**[06:50] Nana**
Okay, I'm "it," and I'm never
taking my eyes off of you!
**[06:54] Runa**
That's kinda scary! And when
do I get to move, then?
**[06:56] Runa**
Honestly.
**[06:59] Nana**
Don't look over—
**[07:12] Nana**
* So then Pochi licked my sister's face,*
* and she screamed really loud.*
**[07:19] Mako**
Wow...
**[07:20] Mako; internal**
*I guess Nana-chan's sister doesn't like dogs?*
**[07:24] Mako**
That wouldn't bother me at all.
**[07:28] Nana**
*Right? It's cute, if anything!*
**[07:31] Nana**
* Oh! If you ever come to my house,*
* would you like to pet Pochi?*
**[07:34] Mako**
Huh? I can?
**[07:36] Mako**
Sure, I'd love to!
**[07:48] Nana**
It's so hot.
**[07:50] Mako**
Sure is. I want to hurry up
and cool off in the club room.
**[07:54] Shinon**
Should we set the AC to 19°C?
**[07:59] Shinon**
The air's so hot in here!
**[08:01] Shinon**
Gotta hurry and turn on
the air conditioner!
***SIGN*** Temperature Control
***SIGN*** Start / Stop
**[08:06] Shinon**
Now come, wintry winds!
**[08:13] Shinon**
Huh? It didn't turn on?
**[08:15] Nana**
Maybe give it one more try?
**[08:23] Mako**
It's not turning on.
**[08:32] Mako**
Shinon-chan, calm down.
**[08:36] Nana**
It's not turning on.
**[08:38] Shinon**
Y-You don't think...
**[08:41] Shinon**
The air conditioner is... broken?!
**[08:50] Nana**
It's so hot.
**[08:52] Mako**
Need... fan...
**[08:59] Mako**
Ah, that's nice and cool!
**[09:05] Mako**
It's hot. It's too hot.
**[09:09] Nana**
Do we have anything to drink?
***SIGN*** Worcestershire
Sauce
**[09:14] Nana**
Nope. Of all the times to be out...
**[09:17] Nana**
There aren't even any of
Hitsuji-chan's energy drinks.
**[09:22] Shinon**
It might actually be cooler outside.
**[09:30] Shinon**
This concrete in the shade feels so good!
**[09:34] Mako**
You'll get all dirty lying there.
**[09:39] Tsutsuji**
It's very hot.
**[09:41] Kurea**
Tsutsuji, it looks like you
did a lot of shopping.
**[09:45] Tsutsuji**
I ran out of energy drinks,
so I bought a bunch of them.
**[09:53] Kurea**
Whoa. What's going on here?
**[09:56] Kurea**
What? The air conditioner's broken?
**[09:59] Mako**
Yeah. No matter how many times we
pushed the button, it wouldn't turn on.
**[10:03] Tsutsuji**
Enduring this heat without air
conditioning takes its toll on you.
**[10:07] Tsutsuji**
What should we do about today's activities?
**[10:09] Shinon**
Well, we could try to *feel* cooler by borrowing
yukata from the Japanese Clothing Club!
**[10:15] Kurea**
In this heat, even wearing
yukata won't do much.
**[10:19] Sakura**
Oh, you're here!
**[10:24] Sakura**
Long time no see!
**[10:28] Nana**
Stranger... danger...
**[10:33] Mako**
Um, who is this?
**[10:35] Kurea**
I don't know.
**[10:36] Shinon**
Saku-chan-senpai! How's your day going?
**[10:39] Mako**
Shinon-chan, you know her?
**[10:41] Shinon**
Yeah! She's the president of another
club in the same building as us.
**[10:44] Sakura**
It's nice to meet you.
I'm Sakura Kodama, a third-year here.
**[10:48] Sakura**
I'm the president of the Agriculture Club.
**[10:51] Kurea**
So there are other clubs that
use this building besides us?
**[10:55] Sakura**
We mostly use the room for storage,
so we're hardly ever here.
**[11:00] Shinon**
Did something in particular
bring you here today?
**[11:02] Sakura**
What? Shinon-chan, did you forget?
**[11:05] Sakura**
In exchange for letting you
have our old refrigerator,
**[11:08] Sakura**
you promised to help with
the field work over summer.
**[11:14] Shinon**
I can neither confirm nor deny
whether that happened.
**[11:17] Sakura**
It did happen!
**[11:19] Kura**
So that refrigerator belonged
to the Agriculture Club?
**[11:23] Kurea**
Seems like it.
**[11:25] Kurea**
Um, Senpai?
**[11:27] Kurea**
If that was the agreement, we'll help out.
**[11:30] Kurea**
We've gotten lots of use out
of that refrigerator, after all.
**[11:33] Sakura**
Really? Thank you!
**[11:36] Sakura**
I'll let you borrow clothes to work in,
so will you come with me to the fields?
**[11:41] Kurea**
S-Sure.
**[11:43] Nana**
Huh? I'm going, too?!
**[11:47] Tsutsuji**
Farm work in this heat?
**[12:09] Sakura**
Welcome to the Agriculture Club's farm!
**[12:14] Mako**
You sure have a lot of
different vegetables here.
**[12:17] Kurea**
It's pretty big, isn't it?
**[12:19] Kurea**
Um, where are the other club members?
**[12:21] Sakura**
Everyone else is either
job hunting or visiting home.
**[12:25] Sakura**
We're only harvesting a portion of the crops,
and you can take some home as thanks,
**[12:30] Sakura**
so can you help out today?
**[12:31] Kurea**
Leave it to us!
**[12:33] Mako**
We'll do our very best!
**[12:34] Sakura**
Then let's split into groups.
One for harvesting, one for watering.
**[12:38] girls**
Okay!
**[12:54] Tsutsuji**
It's hot. It's so hot.
**[12:58] Tsutsuji**
I have to hurry and finish up
so I can take a shower.
**[13:11] Shinon**
It's so hot.
**[13:13] Shinon**
Tsutsuji! Where can I connect this hose to?
**[13:19] Shinon**
What're you doing, Tsutsuji?!
**[13:23] Tsutsuji**
The heat momentarily caused me
to take leave of my senses.
**[13:27] Shinon**
Seriously?
**[13:33] Shinon**
Tsutsuji, do me, too.
**[13:39] Sakura**
Once you're done playing with the water,
please get back to work.
**[13:49] Mako**
Kurea-chan, is this a cabbage?
**[13:52] Kurea**
She said it's a radicchio.
**[13:53] Kurea**
It looks like a cabbage, but it's a
completely different vegetable, apparently.
**[13:58] Mako**
Huh...
**[13:59] Kurea**
Nana! Once you harvest them,
just put them in the basket, okay?
**[14:03] Nana**
Huh? Oh... Right.
**[14:06] Kurea**
Oh. Since Senpai's here,
Nana's anxiety has been activated.
**[14:11] Sakura**
Nana-chan, right?
**[14:13] Sakura**
Is the harvesting going well?
**[14:15] Nana**
N-N-N-Not really.
**[14:18] Sakura**
It's okay to just pull them out,
**[14:19] Sakura**
but try holding down the round part of
the radicchio and pulling it to one side.
**[14:24] Nana**
Okay.
**[14:25] Sakura**
Now, cut through the core between
the round part and the open leaves.
**[14:34] Sakura**
That's it! Very nice! You're a natural!
**[14:43] Sakura**
I'm going to go check on Mako-chan and
the others. Keep up the good work!
**[14:47] Nana**
O-Okay!
**[14:54] Sakura**
How's it going, you two?
**[14:56] Kurea**
Good!
**[14:58] Mako**
We've harvested quite a bit.
**[15:00] Sakura**
Oh, you certainly have!
And very nicely done, too.
**[15:05] Kurea**
How was Nana doing?
**[15:07] Sakura**
She's very quiet, so we didn't talk much,
but she's doing a great job harvesting.
**[15:13] Kurea**
So she did seem quiet to you, then.
**[15:44] Shinon**
We're done!
**[15:47] Mako**
It sure was hot, huh?
**[15:49] Sakura**
Good work, everyone!
**[15:51] Sakura**
Help yourselves to some chilled cucumbers!
**[15:54] Sakura**
I brought salt, too!
**[15:58] Kurea**
Thank you so much!
**[16:00] Shinon**
It's ice-cold! Thank you for the treat!
**[16:07] Shinon**
It's so good!
**[16:08] Tsutsuji**
It's more delicious than
the ones I usually eat.
**[16:11] Kurea**
They taste especially good when
you've picked them yourself, huh?
**[16:40] Mako**
That was delicious!
**[16:42] Shinon**
Well, shall we head back to campus?
**[16:44] Sakura**
Oh, Shinon-chan!
**[16:46] Shinon**
Yes?
**[16:47] Sakura**
Take these with you as thanks for today!
**[16:53] Shinon**
We can really have all of these?
**[16:55] Sakura**
Yup!
**[16:56] Sakura**
We couldn't have finished
so quickly without you.
**[16:58] Sakura**
And I'd love for you all to get a taste
of the veggies we grow here!
**[17:02] Sakura**
Let me know what you think of them later!
**[17:06] girls**
Thank you so much!
**[17:14] Shinon**
You know...
**[17:15] Shinon**
Now that I've tried it, farming is way
more fun than I thought it'd be!
**[17:19] Kurea**
At first, I was worried we'd gotten
sentenced to hard labor, but yeah.
**[17:23] Shinon**
And hey, we scored all those veggies!
**[17:26] Nana**
Right? There were so many kinds,
and those cucumbers were delicious!
**[17:31] Nana**
And when I harvested the radicchio,
Sakura-senpai complimented me!
**[17:35] Nana**
Maybe I really do have a talent for it!
**[17:39] Kurea**
You actually talk a lot, don't you?
**[17:40] Mako**
Hey, everyone...
**[17:42] Mako**
Should we use the veggies we got
today for a river breeze party?
**[17:45] Tsutsuji**
Oh, that sounds good.
**[17:47] Nana**
In that case, I want tempura!
**[17:49] Kurea**
Let's use the ice in the
freezer to make shaved ice!
**[17:52] Shinon**
Oh! In that case...
**[17:59] Mako**
There!
**[18:01] Mako**
Fastened and ready.
**[18:03] Kurea**
I never imagined she'd really borrow
these from the Japanese Clothing Club.
**[18:06] Nana**
Oh, you look so pretty!
**[18:09] Tsutsuji**
It really does feel cooler, too.
**[18:12] Shinon**
All according to plan.
**[18:15] Kurea**
She's quite pleased with herself.
**[18:17] Kurea**
Wait! Don't tell me you went and
agreed to something else in return!
**[18:22] Shinon**
Don't worry! It's all good!
**[18:24] Shinon**
I just let them have the
mannequin that was in here.
**[18:26] Kurea**
So you did agree to give them something.
**[18:47] Mako**
All right. Let's start cooking!
**[18:50] girls**
Yeah!
**[18:52] Mako; internal**
*First, cut the vegetables into thick slices.*
**[19:01] Mako; internal**
* Then make soda water*
* batter to coat them with.*
**[19:06] Mako; internal**
*Dip them in the batter,*
**[19:09] Mako; internal**
*and then fry them in a generous amount of oil.*
**[19:14] Mako; internal**
* Once they're done frying,*
* sprinkle them with salt,*
**[19:17] Mako; internal**
*Parmesan cheese, and mixed herbs.*
**[19:21] Mako; internal**
*Boil and then chill the somen.*
**[19:25] Mako; internal**
*Make fruit punch for dessert, and with that...*
**[19:31] Mako; internal**
* The Summer Veggie Cheesy*
* Fritter River Breeze Set...*
**[19:35] Mako; internal**
*is ready to serve!*
**[19:41] Nana**
It turned out so luxurious!
**[19:43] Shinon**
Let's hurry up and eat!
**[19:45] Kurea**
Well, then...
**[19:46] girls**
Time to eat!
**[19:58] Shinon**
It's super crispy, Makocchi!
**[20:00] Mako**
Yep! It turned out great!
**[20:03] Tsutsuji**
The vegetables are so juicy.
This is magnificent!
**[20:08] Nana**
It's delicious!
**[20:11] Mako**
I'm so glad!
**[20:23] Shinon**
Can I have the rest?
**[20:25] Mako**
Go for it.
**[20:29] Tsutsuji**
Where are your manners, Shinon?
**[20:31] Shinon**
What's a few manners between friends?
**[20:34] Kurea**
That would put anyone off!
**[20:40] Shinon**
I'm so full!
**[20:42] Kurea**
This is pure bliss.
**[20:44] Tsutsuji**
I can't move anymore.

**[00:02] Shinon**
Miss Clerk!
**[00:04] Shinon**
We came to pick up the key!
**[00:06] clerk**
Oh, it's the Food Culture Research Club.
**[00:09] clerk**
Here's your key.
**[00:11] clerk**
Thank you for all your hard work.
**[00:13] Shinon**
Well, it's not really work.
**[00:15] clerk**
Oh, that reminds me.
**[00:17] clerk**
Do you plan to put on anything
for the university festival?
**[00:19] Shinon**
Huh?
**[00:20] Shinon**
I hadn't thought about that at all.
**[00:23] clerk**
The application deadline for stalls
at the festival is next week.
**[00:29] Shinon**
So how much can we rake in
with one of these stalls?
**[00:32] clerk**
Making an excessive profit is prohibited.
**[00:34] Shinon**
What? Aw, man...
**[00:37] Mako; internal**
*The university festival?*
***SIGN*** Episode 9 "Let's Try Running a Stall!"
***SIGN*** Episode 9 "Let's Try Running a Stall!"
**[02:13] Shinon**
And so...
**[02:15] Shinon**
What do you want to do about the festival?
**[02:17] Tsutsuji**
Whatever we do, it's gotta
involve serving food, right?
**[02:20] Nana**
Right.
**[02:22] Kurea**
Food, huh? Running a food stall
isn't easy, you know.
**[02:30] Mako**
I'd be interested in doing something, I think.
**[02:33] Mako**
I don't want to waste the
opportunities this club gives us,
**[02:36] Mako**
and I feel like it would be a chance
to make some nice memories together.
**[02:41] Shinon**
Well, that's an okay from me!
What about you guys?
**[02:45] Nana**
Yeah! I wanna do it!
**[02:48] Tsutsuji**
I'm willing to give it a go, too.
**[02:50] Kurea**
It'll probably be a lot of hard work,
**[02:52] Kurea**
but if everyone else is on board,
I'm okay with it, too.
**[02:55] Shinon**
All right, then!
**[02:57] Shinon**
Let's give it a shot together!
**[02:59] girls**
Yeah!
**[03:01] Shinon**
Without further ado, let's assign roles!
**[03:04] Shinon**
First, the taste—
**[03:04] Kurea**
Don't say "taste-tester."
**[03:08] Shinon**
On the cooking team: Kurea and Makocchi!
**[03:10] Mako; Kurea**
Roger that!
**[03:11] Shinon**
On the logistics team: Tsutsuji and Nana!
**[03:14] Nana; Tsutsuji**
Yes, ma'am!
**[03:15] Shinon**
And as for me: I shall be
the special coordinator...
**[03:19] Shinon**
and taste-tester!
**[03:21] Kurea**
I knew you'd make yourself taste-tester!
**[03:23] Mako**
The taste-testing part aside,
what does a special coordinator do?
**[03:28] Shinon**
I shall coordinate the specials!
**[03:30] Kurea**
You're not just going to slack off, right?
**[03:38] Tsutsuji**
You seem excited, Nana.
**[03:41] Nana**
We're running a food stall!
Who wouldn't be excited?
**[03:45] Tsutsuji**
Well, I guess I understand how you feel.
**[03:47] Nana**
Right?
**[03:55] Tsutsuji**
Is something wrong?
**[03:57] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan, I just realized something.
**[04:01] Tsutsuji**
Yes?
**[04:02] Nana**
If we're running a food stall...
**[04:04] Tsutsuji**
Yes?
**[04:05] Nana**
Does that mean we'll be serving customers?
**[04:09] Tsutsuji**
Well... I'd say so, yes.
**[04:14] Nana**
Th-That completely slipped my mind!
**[04:17] Nana**
Wh-Wh-What do I do?! I can't serve people!
**[04:21] Nana; background**
What do I do? What do I do?
**[04:21] Tsutsuji**
Customers means strangers, yeah.
**[04:24] Tsutsuji**
I think it'd be fine for you
to just help in the back.
**[04:29] Nana**
I don't wanna be the only one there who
can't help with the customers, though...
**[04:35] Tsutsuji**
Hmm. In that case, do you want to
practice talking to strangers with me?
**[04:41] Nana**
Huh? You'll help me?
**[04:43] Tsutsuji**
Of course. It's only natural for good friends
to help each other in times of need.
**[04:49] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan!
**[04:52] Nana**
Thank you!
**[04:56] Mokotaro**
*Hi, everyone!*
**[04:58] Mokotaro**
* It's almost school festival season,*
* isn't it, moko?*
**[05:01] Mokotaro**
* I want to go to all of your festivals*
* and eat lots of delicious food, moko!*
**[05:04] Mako**
I wish Mokotaro could come to my university...
**[05:08] Mako**
But what am I going to make for the festival?
**[05:12] Mako**
Since we have the opportunity, I'd like to try something a bit out of the ordinary, but...
**[05:16] Mokotaro**
Today, I'll be showcasing... this!
**[05:20] Mokotaro**
*Pretty Curry!*
**[05:23] Mako**
Maybe not *that* out of the ordinary.
***SIGN*** Diner
**[05:35] Mako**
Good evening!
**[05:37] Shinon**
Oh, Makocchi! 'Sup?
**[05:39] Kurea's mom**
Mako-chan! Good evening.
**[05:41] Kurea**
Mom, we're doing that thing today!
**[05:44] Kurea's mom**
Oh! Making a test batch to prepare
for the university festival, right?
**[05:47] Kurea**
Yeah. So we'll be borrowing the
kitchen for a little while, okay?
***SIGN*** Takao Diner
**[05:54] Mako**
Thank you for waiting.
**[05:56] Mako**
H-Here you are.
**[05:57] Mako**
The Food Culture Research
Club's special curry.
**[06:01] Shinon**
Indeed!
**[06:06] Shinon**
This aroma is... cumin, right?
**[06:08] farmer**
I grew it.
**[06:09] Shinon**
You must be using good,
homemade curry powder.
**[06:12] Mako**
Um, it's just store-bought curry roux.
**[06:15] Shinon**
Oh! Using a whole garlic clove
like this is quite the daring move!
**[06:20] Mako**
That's a pickled scallion.
**[06:22] Kurea**
Just hurry up and eat it already.
**[06:24] Shinon**
Well, then...
**[06:32] Shinon**
Yes, I see.
**[06:33] Shinon**
This spicy flavor and pungent scent...
**[06:37] Shinon**
If I were to compare it to something...
**[06:40] Shinon**
It's just like curry!
**[06:41] Mako**
Well, yeah. It *is* curry.
**[06:44] Kurea**
Come on, Shinon. Give us a serious review.
**[06:47] Shinon**
Sorry! I was joking.
**[06:49] Shinon**
But as far as a serious review goes,
the thing is...
**[06:53] Mako**
Is it too ordinary?
**[06:54] Shinon**
Well, yeah.
**[06:56] Kurea**
I thought that, too.
**[06:59] Mako**
If we're going to make something just for this,
it should be a little more complex, right?
**[07:04] Kurea**
If we get picky about ingredients,
it'll get expensive.
**[07:06] Kurea**
Should we tweak the recipe instead?
**[07:11] Kurea**
What is it?
***SIGN*** Heh heh heh
**[07:13] Shinon**
I just had a great idea.
**[07:16] Shinon**
Okay. Leave this to the special coordinator.
For today, you are dismissed!
**[07:20] Kurea**
What? Is that gonna be okay?
**[07:26] Shinon**
Hey, you two! I've brought a special guest!
**[07:30] Sakura**
Hello, everyone!
**[07:33] Mako**
Sakura-senpai?
**[07:34] Kurea**
Why are you here?
**[07:36] Sakura**
I heard you're running a stall at the festival.
**[07:40] Kurea**
That's right...
**[07:41] Sakura**
The thing is, I was wondering if you
could use our club's vegetables.
**[07:46] Mako**
What?
**[07:47] Kurea**
Can we really do that?
**[07:48] Sakura**
Yes!
**[07:49] Kurea**
Uh, wait. What would we
be agreeing to in return?
**[07:57] Kurea**
Are you going to take us
out fishing in a storm?
**[08:01] Sakura**
I wouldn't do that!
**[08:02] Sakura**
I just want you to promote our vegetables!
**[08:06] Sakura**
We also sell them at markets, you see.
**[08:09] Mako**
Markets? You do that sort of work, too?
**[08:13] Kurea**
Using veggies grown by students at the same
university would make us stand out, right?
**[08:18] Mako**
Then how about a soup curry
with chunky vegetables?
**[08:22] Kurea**
Yeah! A soup curry sounds like it'd
really bring out the vegetables' flavors!
**[08:27] Sakura**
Oh? So it's decided?
**[08:29] Mako**
Yes! Thank you so much for the vegetables!
**[08:31] Sakura**
No problem at all.
**[08:32] Kurea**
Good work, Coordinator.
**[08:35] Shinon**
I know, right?
**[08:36] Kurea**
So all that's left is the meat.
**[08:39] Mako**
If we buy frozen meat in bulk,
we can keep costs down.
**[08:42] Sakura**
If you need to buy meat, I know
somewhere fun. Want to check it out?
**[08:46] Shinon**
Somewhere fun?
**[08:48] Shinon**
Oh, oh! I wanna go!
**[08:50] Sakura**
Then would you like to go now?
**[08:52] Mako**
Yes, please!
**[08:57] Tsutsuji**
Now, let's work on our customer service
skills by practicing talking to people.
**[09:02] Nana**
What? You don't mean people here, do you?
**[09:05] Tsutsuji**
Yes.
**[09:05] Nana**
I can't! I really can't!
**[09:07] Tsutsuji**
It's all right. They're all
university students, just like us.
**[09:11] Nana**
B-B-But how do I even start...
**[09:14] Tsutsuji**
You could just ask for
directions to a classroom.
**[09:18] Nana**
But what if I ask someone scary?
**[09:20] Nana**
They might flick me on the forehead!
**[09:22] Nana**
What if they bully me by giving me directions
to a classroom at a different university?
**[09:25] Tsutsuji**
Please just hurry up and go.
**[09:32] Nana**
I can't work up the nerve.
**[09:34] Nana**
But I made up my mind to
learn how to talk to people!
**[09:37] Nana**
Okay!
**[09:38] Nana**
U-Um...
**[09:40] girl A**
Yes?
**[09:42] Nana**
U-Um, a-are you free right now?
**[09:47] Nana**
D-Don't worry! I-I'm not
s-suspicious or anything.
**[09:52] Nana**
I-It'll be over quickly!
**[09:53] girl A**
I'm sorry! I have to get to class!
**[09:56] Nana**
What?! But why?!
**[09:57] Nana**
N-No... After I managed to call
out to her and everything...
**[10:01] girl B**
Um...
**[10:02] girl B**
Excuse me. Do you know
where the media wing is?
**[10:07] Nana**
M-Me? U-Um, w-w-well...
**[10:10] Nana; internal**
*I knew I wouldn't be able to do it!*
**[10:13] Nana; internal**
* When I'm talking to someone I don't know,*
* the words just won't come out!*
***SIGN*** No Bicycle Parking

Huh?

**[10:24] girl B**
Wha?
***SIGN*** No Bicycle Parking
***SIGN*** No Bicycle Parking
**[10:28] Nana**
The media wing, right?
Just go straight this way. You can't miss it.
**[10:32] Nana**
There's a vending machine nearby,
**[10:34] Nana**
so if you're thirsty,
you can buy something to drink!
**[10:37] girl B**
R-Right.
**[10:39] girl B**
Um, th-thank you!
**[10:42] Nana**
Sure! Bye!
**[10:45] Tsutsuji**
See? You can talk to people just fine.
**[10:47] Nana**
Y-Yeah, once I cover my face.
**[10:52] Tsutsuji**
Hmm. So you can talk if your face is covered.
**[10:55] Tsutsuji**
I see. That gives me an idea.
**[11:09] Mako**
Is this a rest stop?
***SIGN*** Welcome!
***SIGN*** Hachioji Takiyama

Wild game!

I thought using wild game meat
might help you stand out even more.
**[11:29] Shinon**
I see. I'm impressed you know
about this stuff, Saku-chan-senpai!
**[11:33] Sakura**
Yes, well, I've got my hunting license!
**[11:36] Sakura**
And I'm in a hunting association, too.
**[11:38] Mako**
Huh? What does a hunting license do?
**[11:41] Sakura**
It means you can shoot hunting rifles.
**[11:43] Sakura**
I needed a way to deal with harmful animals,
**[11:45] Sakura**
so I ended up getting a license!
**[11:48] Kurea**
F-For real?
**[11:50] Shinon**
You're like a matagi hunter!
**[11:51] Kurea**
But isn't it difficult to cook wild game?
**[11:57] Sakura**
Well, it *is* a little more work.
**[11:59] Kurea**
I thought so.
**[12:01] Kurea**
Mako, what do you want to do?
**[12:03] Mako**
It might be more work, but I think it'd
add that touch of originality we need.
**[12:08] Shinon**
All right! Then let's make wild game curry!
**[12:11] Shinon**
What kind should we get, Matagi-paisen?
**[12:14] Sakura**
Um, do you mean me?
**[12:20] girls**
Time to eat!
**[12:26] Mako**
H-How is it?
**[12:31] Nana**
So good!
**[12:32] Mako**
R-Really?
**[12:34] Tsutsuji**
It's delicious. What kind of meat is this?
**[12:37] Kurea**
It's venison.
**[12:38] Kurea**
The flavor is on the lighter side,
**[12:40] Kurea**
so we thought it might accent
the flavor of the veggies.
**[12:42] Shinon**
It really did!
The veggies are super delicious!
**[12:46] Shinon**
I think Matagi—I mean, Saku-chan-senpai
would be happy with this!
**[12:49] Kurea**
Then shall we go with
this curry for our stall?
**[12:52] Shinon**
Okay! I think it's really good!
**[12:55] Tsutsuji**
The meat didn't taste gamey at all.
It was excellent!
**[12:58] Nana**
All that's left is to design the stall itself!
**[13:00] Shinon**
All right! Let's do it!
**[13:02] girls**
Yeah!
**[13:08] Tsutsuji**
Does this decoration go here?
**[13:11] Nana**
Yeah! That's okay!
**[13:14] Nana**
There.
**[13:16] Nana**
Our stall is complete!

**[13:25] Mako**
Thanks to this sketch of the stall that
Nana-chan and Tsutsuji-chan made,
**[13:29] Mako**
the setup went smoothly.
**[13:30] Nana**
Right?
**[13:31] Kurea**
Oh, I meant to ask, are we okay for money?
**[13:35] Kurea**
Since we had to splash out
for wild game meat and all.
**[13:38] Shinon**
Yeah! We had everything else we needed
besides the stove and gas in the club room.
**[13:42] Shinon**
But if it really bombs, we'll be in the red.
**[13:45] Kurea**
Hey! Don't put the pressure on like that.
**[13:48] Tsutsuji**
Don't worry. We'll help, too.

*May everything go well tomorrow.*
**[14:12] Mako**
It's finally the day of the festival.
**[14:15] Mako**
I'm starting to get a little nervous.
**[14:17] Kurea**
Right?
**[14:18] Shinon**
Everyone, let's give it all we've got!
**[14:21] Shinon; Tsutsuji; Nana**
Yeah!
**[14:22] Shinon**
Keep your wits about you!
**[14:24] Shinon; Tsutsuji; Nana**
Yeah!
**[14:25] Kurea**
Why are those three acting
like this is a sports festival?
**[14:25] Shinon**
One for all!
**[14:27] Shinon; Tsutsuji; Nana**
All for one!
**[14:28] Kurea**
Well, let's just take our time and cook.
**[14:31] Mako**
Okay.
**[14:34] Mako; internal**
*First, prep the vegetables.*
**[14:39] Mako; internal**
* Slice the venison into pieces*
* one centimeter thick,*
**[14:42] Mako; internal**
* then add curry powder*
* and massage it in well.*
**[14:45] Mako; internal**
* Sauté the onions until*
* they're golden brown,*
**[14:48] Mako; internal**
*then add curry powder and mix well.*
**[14:50] Mako; internal**
* Sauté the venison, ginger, and minced*
* garlic together until the meat is browned.*
**[14:57] Mako; internal**
* Add the venison, potatoes,*
* and carrots to a pot,*
**[15:00] Mako; internal**
* and then add tomato juice,*
* consommé soup, and tomato purée.*
**[15:05] Mako; internal**
* Simmer until the vegetables are tender,*
* and then add the bell peppers.*
**[15:09] Mako; internal**
* Bring the flavors together*
* with salt and pepper,*
**[15:11] Mako; internal**
*then add dried basil, and it's done!*
**[15:22] Kurea**
The soup curry is ready!
**[15:24] Nana**
What time does the festival open again?
**[15:27] Tustsuji**
At 10:30, so there's about
fifteen minutes left.
**[15:31] Mako; internal**
* I wonder if anyone will say*
* that our curry is good.*
**[15:36] Mako; internal**
*I'm the one who suggested this,*
**[15:38] Mako; internal**
* but it's the first time I've cooked for*
* anyone other than friends or family.*
**[15:41] Mako; internal**
*What if it doesn't sell at all?*
**[15:47] Kurea**
Don't worry! Our curry
is definitely delicious!
**[15:52] Mako**
Right!

W-Well, we only just opened.
**[16:14] Mako**
Right. Yes, you're right.
**[16:17] Kurea**
It'll be okay. I'm sure it'll be okay.
**[16:21] Mako**
Speaking of people, where are the others?
**[16:23] Kurea**
Huh? They were here just a minute ago.
**[16:31] Kurea**
Huh? Wait, what?
**[16:33] Kurea**
Don't tell me those three there are...
**[16:38] Tsutsuji**
Sorry to keep the two of you waiting.
**[16:41] Mako**
Tsutsuji-chan? What are you wearing?
**[16:43] Tsutsuji**
Well, we made flyers for today,
so we thought we'd do some promotion.
**[16:48] Tsutsuji**
That's why we're dressed up.
**[16:50] Mako**
You made flyers?
**[16:53] Kurea**
Then that... rabbit? Is that...
**[16:56] Nana**
It's me, Nana!
**[16:57] Tsutsuji**
We discovered that Nana's fear of strangers
doesn't take effect if her face is covered.
**[17:01] Tsutsuji**
This way, Nana can help customers, too.
**[17:04] Mako**
You did all that?
**[17:08] Mako**
Shinon-chan... is dressed normally.
**[17:11] Shinon**
Huh? Yeah. No one told me
anything about costumes.
**[17:14] Mako**
Oh. I see.
**[17:18] Shinon**
Hold on.
**[17:20] Shinon**
I'm the most normal one here, so why
am I being treated like I'm the weirdest?
**[17:25] Mako**
S-Sorry.
**[17:26] Shinon**
Well, no matter. Let's get promoting
with everything we've got!
**[17:30] Tsutsuji; Nana**
Yeah!
**[17:34] Nana**
We've got vegetable
and wild game soup curry!
**[17:37] Nana**
Try some now, before we sell out!

Thank you so much!

H-Here you are.

Thank you!

We're getting more and more customers!

Yes, let's give it our best!
**[18:22] clerk**
Oh, you're working pretty hard.
**[18:24] Shinon**
Miss Clerk!
**[18:26] Shinon**
Would you like some curry?
**[18:28] clerk**
Sure, I'll have a bowl.
**[18:30] Shinon**
Hey, Makocchi! One bowl of
the gold stuff for Miss Clerk!
**[18:35] clerk**
Don't make it sound like a bribe.
**[18:36] Kurea**
Yes, I'll take your payment here.
**[18:37] clerk**
Still, who'd have thought such a laid-back
club would run a solid stall like this?
**[18:37] Mako; background**
Thank you for waiting!
**[18:43] Shinon**
Um, well, we've been doing
more activities lately.
**[18:47] clerk**
I know. I see you as a real club now.
**[18:53] Shinon**
Then please reward us by installing

I-I'm sorry! The wild

**[19:31] Shinon**
No way! Already?
**[19:32] Tsutsuji**
It got busy enough at lunch
to make your head spin.
**[19:37] Shinon**
What about the ingredients for tomorrow?
**[19:39] Mako**
We've already used them.
**[19:40] Shinon**
For real?!
**[19:42] Shinon**
We were scheduled to be open tomorrow, too,
**[19:45] Shinon**
but if we're sold out, maybe
we should take the stall down.
**[19:48] Tsutsuji**
It's great that we managed to sell out, though.
**[19:52] Shinon**
Oh, before we start breaking it down...
**[19:54] Shinon**

**[20:36] Staff**
Mokotaro-san, did you try that curry?
**[20:41] Tsutsuji; internal**
* I feel like I've seen that character*
* somewhere before.*
**[20:46] Shinon**
Everyone, good work at the university festival!
**[20:49] girls**
Good work!
**[20:51] Kurea**
It was over in a flash, wasn't it?
**[20:54] Shinon**
Yeah, I never thought we'd sell out in one day.
**[20:57] Tsutsuji**
And everyone said it was delicious, too.
**[21:01] Shinon**
Right?
**[21:03] Nana**
But I feel sort of sad now.
**[21:05] Nana**
There's not a trace of our stall left.
**[21:15] Mako**
Yes, but...
**[21:19] Mako**
I don't mind that sadness.
**[21:23] Mako**
Because it just shows how
much fun I had with all of you.
**[21:34] Kurea**
You're right.
**[21:36] Shinon**
Okay! Let's do it again next year!
**[21:39] Tsutsuji**
Should we stock more ingredients next time?
**[21:42] Mako**
What should we make?
**[21:44] Nana**
You're thinking way too far ahead.
**[23:22] Mako**
Oh, Mokotaro posted a new video.
**[23:26] Mako**
I've been so busy lately, I haven't
been able to keep up with them.
**[23:29] Mako**
But today I can watch to my heart's content.
**[23:31] Mokotaro**
* Hi, everyone! Today, I've been invited*

**[00:01] Shinon**
As of today, our finals are over!
**[00:03] Shinon**
And since we've got a break coming up,
how about we go on a trip together?
**[00:07] Nana**
Ooh! I wanna go on a trip!
**[00:09] Tsutsuji**
The club camp we went on
before was fun, so why not?
**[00:12] Kurea**
I'm in.
**[00:14] Mako**
U-Um...
**[00:16] Mako**
I was planning to go home to visit family.
**[00:19] Shinon**
What?! For real?
**[00:21] Mako**
Yeah. I promised to go home
when we got a longer break.
**[00:25] Nana**
I see.
**[00:26] Kurea**
Actually, Shinon, don't you
need to visit home, too?
**[00:29] Kurea**
You and Mako are from the same town, right?
**[00:32] Shinon**
Come to think of it, they *have* been
telling me to come home for a while.
**[00:35] Kurea**
You probably should, then.
**[00:37] Shinon**
I know. But everyone's already
in the mood for a trip.
**[00:42] Mako; internal**
* I feel bad for throwing their plans off...*
* Is there anything I can do?*
**[00:47] Mako**
Oh!
**[00:48] Mako**
We might all be able to stay
at my grandma's house.
**[00:51] Shinon**
What? For real?
**[00:53] Mako**
Yeah. It's close to my parents' house,
and my grandma is living with them,
**[00:58] Mako**
so the house is empty right now.
**[01:00] Shinon**
That would be great! That way,
we could visit home *and* go on a trip!
**[01:03] Nana**
I wanna see Makocchan's hometown!
**[01:06] Tsutsuji**
I'd definitely be interested, too.
**[01:08] Kurea**
Mako, are you sure that would be okay?
**[01:10] Mako**
It should be, I think. I'll ask.
**[01:13] Kurea**
Then I'll ask Mom if we can borrow the car.
**[01:17] Kurea**
They'll still be able to do restaurant
deliveries with my grandpa's car.
**[01:20] Mako**
Thanks, Kurea-chan!
**[01:22] Nana; background**
Yay! We'll get to go on
another drive together!
**[01:22] Shinon**
Going back home, huh?
**[01:24] Kurea; background**
I'll handle the freeways.
**[01:26] Shinon**
Makocchi, Makocchi!
**[01:26] Nana; background**
Yes, please do.
**[01:28] Mako**
Hm?
**[01:28] Shinon**
Since we're going home, wanna see if we
can meet up with Yunacchi and Hiyocchi?
**[01:34] Mako**
Huh?

Wow. So this is where you grew up, Mako?
**[03:26] Mako**

Shinon can't handle freeways,

**[03:33] Nana**
And we left at 4 AM...

Do you want an energy drink?
**[03:37] Kurea**
I might have one more later.

I used to come here to play all the time.
**[03:58] Nana**
Kurea-chan, are you okay?
**[04:00] Kurea**
I'll just go to sleep.

Please hold off just a little longer.

Welcome back, Mako.

Oh, Shinon-chan! This is so nostalgic.
Have you been well?

It's been a long time!

I'm so happy that you're
hanging out with Mako again.
**[04:17] Mako's mom**
Are the girls behind you from your club, too?
**[04:19] Shinon**
Y-Yes!

Thank you for traveling so far to come here.

Not at all. Thank you for having us.

Hello.
**[04:42] Mako**
Grandma, I'm home.
**[04:44] Mako's grandma**
Welcome back, Mako.
My, have you grown taller again?
**[04:48] Mako**
I'm in university now,
so I'm as tall as I'll ever be.
**[04:51] Mako's mom**
You're all staying at Grandma's
house today, aren't you?
**[04:54] Mako**
Yeah. We're staying the night

**[04:57] Mako**
Will you tell Dad when he gets back?
**[05:00] Mako's mom**
All right.
**[05:01] Mako's mom**
I've cleaned the house, so feel free to
use the futons and cooking equipment.
**[05:06] Mako**
Thank you!
**[05:07] Mako's grandma**
Do you remember how to use the irori hearth?
**[05:10] Mako**
Yeah, don't worry.
**[05:12] Shinon**
You're going to cook over an irori?
**[05:14] Mako**
Yeah! Grandma's house has an irori, and we
used to cook there together all the time.
**[05:18] Mako's grandma**
Ah, the memories.
**[05:20] Shinon**
I see. So that's why you're so good at cooking.
**[05:27] Shinon**
I guess I'll do the driving
to your grandma's house.
**[05:52] Tsutsuji**
What an impressive traditional home.
**[05:55] Nana**
I've seen these in period dramas.
**[05:57] Shinon**
It really stands out.
**[06:02] Tsutsuji**
So this is one of those dirt-floored rooms!
**[06:05] Nana**
I've never seen one before!
**[06:07] Tsutsuji**
That's a kamado stove, isn't it?
**[06:11] Shinon**
Makocchi, when was this house built?
**[06:14] Mako**
I don't know, but I've heard it was
before my grandma was born.
**[06:18] Shinon**
Wow.
**[06:19] Mako**
Let me give you a little tour.
**[06:21] Mako**
This is the room with the irori.
**[06:23] Nana**
We can definitely pretend
we're in a folk tale here!
**[06:25] Tsutsuji**
That's something you want to do?
**[06:27] Mako**
This is the tatami room.
**[06:29] Nana**
There's a hibachi brazier!
**[06:32] Nana**
What's that?
**[06:33] Mako**
A kamidana.
**[06:34] Mako**
We'll lay out the futons
in this tatami room here.
**[06:37] Mako**
We can leave our bags here, too.
**[06:39] Shinon; Kurea**
Okay!
**[06:40] Shinon**
Makocchi, should we be heading out?
**[06:42] Mako**
Oh, yeah, you're right.
**[06:44] Tsutsuji**
You're going to see friends, aren't you?
**[06:46] Tsutsuji**
It's your visit home. Don't worry about us.
**[06:50] Mako**
I'm sorry we ended up making separate plans.
**[06:53] Mako**
You can use whatever's
in the fridge for lunch.
**[06:56] Nana**
Okay! We'll see you later!
**[06:58] Tsutsuji**
Have a good time.
**[07:06] Nana**
There they go. What do you want to do now?
**[07:11] Tsutsuji**
I had a fun idea.
**[07:15] Tsutsuji**
She's fast asleep.
**[07:17] Nana**
Well, she did do all the driving for us.
**[07:21] Tsutsuji**
Yeah. So let's make lunch while she's sleeping.
**[07:26] Nana**
Yeah!
**[07:29] Tsutsuji**
There are lots of ingredients in here.
**[07:32] Nana**
I wasn't expecting this house
to have a fridge in it.
**[07:35] Tsutsuji**
They said we can use the ingredients
and cooking equipment here.
**[07:40] Nana**
Let's make a meal that'll
blow Kurea-chan away!
**[07:43] Tsutsuji**
First, we need to start a fire.
**[07:46] Nana**
Fire?
**[07:47] Tsutsuji**
You can't cook on an irori without one.
**[07:51] Nana**
Do you think we can do it?
**[07:53] Tsutsuji**
Well, we'll look stuff up online as we go.
**[07:56] Nana**
Oh, right. It's in times like these
that we rely on modern conveniences.
**[08:06] Nana**
All right. I've completely
memorized how to use an irori.
**[08:10] Tsutsuji**
Does your affinity for puzzles allow
you to do stuff like that, too?
**[08:14] Nana**
First, we have to find the
fire-extinguishing pot.
**[08:16] Tsutsuji**
A pot?
**[08:17] Tsutsuji**
Is it this?
**[08:19] Nana**
Next, we take some charcoal from it.
**[08:22] Nana**
It's called keshizumi.
**[08:24] Nana**
Since it's been burned once already,
**[08:26] Nana**
it catches easily, making it
perfect for starting new fires.
**[08:29] Tsutsuji**
Wow.
**[08:30] Nana**
The article said we just use a torch lighter
and a blowpipe to get the fire going.
**[08:34] Nana**
Found it!
**[08:35] Nana**
Here's the blowpipe! I'll handle this part!
**[08:38] Tsutsuji**
Did you find instructions for that online, too?
**[08:40] Nana**
Nope, but I've seen it on TV, so I'll be fine!
**[08:43] Tsutsuji**
Right. Now all we need is a torch lighter.
**[08:53] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan! Hitsuji-chan!
**[08:55] Tsutsuji**
Did you find a gas torch?
**[08:57] Nana**
I found a flint and striker!
**[09:00] Tsutsuji**
Huh? We're starting the fire with those?
**[09:02] Nana**
This is a traditional home! They probably
used these instead of a torch, right?
**[09:08] Tsutsuji**
Good point!
**[09:10] Nana**
Okay! Let's use these to make
Kurea a delicious lunch!
**[09:23] Nana**
I-I can't get it to catch at all.
**[09:25] Tsutsuji**
Oh, dear.
**[09:26] Nana**
I'm doing it exactly how it said online.
**[09:29] Nana**
I'll try one more time.
Once I move the tinder to the charcoal,
**[09:33] Nana**
use the blowpipe to give it air.
**[09:34] Tsutsuji**
Didn't you want to use the blowpipe?
**[09:44] Nana**
It caught!
**[09:46] Nana**
This might be perfect!
**[09:52] Nana**
We finally got the spark to catch!
**[09:55] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan, if you would!
**[09:57] Tsutsuji**
Right.
**[10:07] Nana**
You should probably get a little
closer and blow more gently.
**[10:10] Tsutsuji**
S-Sorry.
**[10:19] Tsutsuji; Nana**
Yay! We did it!
**[10:23] Nana**
It finally caught! Hooray!
**[10:30] Tsutsuji**
You know, 'tis merely hot water,
and yet, hot water it is.
**[10:34] Tsutsuji**
Simply boiling water
used to take all this work.
**[10:38] Nana**
Yeah.
**[10:42] Kurea**
Huh? You two cooked for me?
Now I'm looking forward to it.
**[10:49] Nana**
Um...
**[10:54] Kurea**
This is instant yakisoba.
What did you cook?
**[11:00] Tsutsuji**
This is our special, hand-crafted,
pre-boiled water.
**[11:03] Nana**
Boiling water is a worthy
demonstration of cooking.
**[11:12] Shinon**
They said they'd be here soon.
**[11:14] Mako**
R-Right.
**[11:17] Shinon**
Makocchi, are you nervous?
**[11:20] Mako**
W-Well, I haven't seen Hiyori-chan
or Yuna-chan in so long!
**[11:25] Mako**
I-I don't look weird or anything, do I?
**[11:27] Shinon**
It's gonna be fine!
**[11:29] Hiyori**
Oh, that's Oshinko and...
**[11:30] Yuna**
Makocchi?
**[11:32] Hiyori**
I knew it was you!
**[11:33] Yuna**
Sorry to keep you waiting!
**[11:35] Shinon**
I haven't seen you two in forever!
**[11:37] Hiyori**
Yeah, long time no see!
**[11:38] Shinon**
Yay!
**[11:40] Hiyori**
This restaurant brings back memories, too!
**[11:42] Shinon**
Makocchi picked it!
**[11:44] Yuna**
How'd you travel here?
**[11:45] Shinon**
Oh, we drove.
**[11:47] Hiyori**
In that case, let's go for a drive sometime!
**[11:50] Shinon**
Okay!
**[11:51] Yuna**
It's been a while, Makocchi. It's me, Yuna.
**[11:55] Hiyori**
And I'm Hiyori! Do you remember me?
**[11:57] Mako**
I-It's been a long time!
**[11:59] Shinon**
Makocchi, calm down.
**[12:01] Shinon**
She's got a case of nerves, I think.
**[12:05] Yuna**
Well, we haven't seen each
other since grade school.
**[12:07] Yuna**
You really got a lot taller, didn't you?
**[12:10] Mako**
No, no! I haven't changed at all!
**[12:13] Hiyori**
Uh, I think you'd have grown at least a little.
**[12:15] Shinon**
Well, we shouldn't just
stand around. Let's go in!
**[12:19] Hiyori; Yuna**
Okay!
**[12:28] Yuna**
Oh, she's gone back to
being the old Makocchi.
**[12:31] Mako**
Do you remember back when the four
of us wanted to come here as kids?
**[12:37] Shinon**
But we couldn't afford to
because we had no money, right?
**[12:40] Mako**
Yeah. Ever since then, I've always
wanted to come here sometime.
**[12:45] Mako**
So what are you two up to now?
**[12:48] Yuna**
I'm helping with my dad's work.
**[12:51] Hiyori**
I'm going to a university in Osaka.
**[12:54] Hiyori**
But I'm glad you two ended
up at the same university.
**[12:58] Shinon**
Huh?
**[12:58] Yuna**
We never would've seen
Makocchi again if you hadn't.
**[13:01] Mako**
I-I'm sorry.
**[13:03] Mako**
I didn't get a cell phone until high school,
so it was hard to stay in touch.
**[13:08] Hiyori**
It's fine! Don't beat yourself up about it.
**[13:11] Yuna**
She's right.
**[13:12] Yuna**
Anyway, I heard you two started a club!
**[13:16] Shinon**
There it is! The prompt I've been waiting for!
**[13:19] Shinon**
You see, I found myself craving the
challenge of founding an organization.
**[13:24] Shinon**
We're a creative, motivated club,
**[13:28] Shinon**
but new endeavors are
always met with resistance.
**[13:31] Shinon**
It was tough getting the university's approval
and building everything from the ground up.
**[13:36] Mako**
It was tough because Shinon-chan wanted to
create a fake club where we just slacked off.
**[13:40] girls**
Huh?
**[13:41] Hiyori**
Oshinko, what have you been up to?
**[13:44] Yuna**
And knowing Oshinko,
what other messes has she made?
**[13:47] Shinon**
Nothing! It's nothing!
**[13:48] Mako**
When Shinon-chan's money went missing,
we all helped look for it,
**[13:52] Mako**
only for her to find it in her own wallet.
**[13:54] Mako**
Right after she got her driver's license, she
accidentally got on the freeway and panicked.
**[13:58] Mako**
Oh, and the time—
**[13:59] Shinon**
Please stop! I'm trying to look cool here!
**[14:05] Hiyori**
Thanks for the feast!
**[14:07] Mako**
That was delicious!
**[14:10] Yuna**
What should we do next?
**[14:11] Hiyori**
Want to take a walk around the area?
**[14:14] Hiyori**
I've started feeling all nostalgic.
**[14:16] Shinon**
How about we wander our way
toward our old elementary school?
**[14:19] Mako**
Yeah.
**[14:19] Hiyori**
Okay!
**[15:13] Shinon**
Oh! You can see the school
really well from here!
**[15:18] Yuna**
So many memories.
**[15:20] Hiyori**
Well, we did spend six years here.
**[15:23] Mako**
I wish I could eat one of
their school lunches again!
**[15:25] Yuna**
Oh, speaking of school lunches...
**[15:28] Yuna**
You used to make this really intense face
when they served Hamburg steak.
**[15:34] Shinon**
Makocchi still makes that face.
**[15:37] Hiyori**
She does?
**[15:38] Mako**
Sh-Shinon-chan!
**[15:40] Shinon**
That's payback for earlier!
**[15:44] Shinon**
Still, reminiscing sure is fun, isn't it?
**[15:49] Shinon**
We made the right choice
getting together again.
**[15:51] Hiyori**
Right?
**[15:52] Mako**
I think this is the first time I've ever
talked about old memories this much.
**[15:56] Yuna**
Oh, what's this? A sad story?
**[15:58] Mako**
N-No, nothing like that.
**[16:02] Mako**
I didn't have any friends
in middle or high school,
**[16:05] Mako**
so the only memories I can talk about
are from elementary school.
**[16:08] Yuna**
See? It *is* a sad story.
**[16:10] Mako**
N-No, I have plenty of fun on my own, just...
**[16:13] Mako**
not as much fun as I have
talking with other people.
**[16:16] Shinon**
Huh. But you had all kinds of stories
to tell about university before.
**[16:20] Mako**
Huh?
**[16:20] Shinon**
Like about me losing my money
or ending up on the freeway.
**[16:26] Mako**
Th-That was...
**[16:27] Hiyori**
You totally did.
**[16:29] Hiyori**
You talk about university as if
you've had lots of fun there.
**[16:32] Yuna**
Sounds like you're making lots of memories!
**[16:36] Shinon**
Then why don't I drive us back along the
freeway so you can make another fun memory?
**[16:41] Mako**
P-Please don't!
**[16:43] Shinon**
Just kidding! It was a joke!
**[16:46] Shinon**
But I do have a ton of stuff
I want to do with our club.
**[16:51] Shinon**
The next time you come back here,
**[16:53] Shinon**
you'll have tons of memories to share
with Yunacchi and Hiyocchi!
**[16:59] Mako**
Oh, yeah.
**[17:01] Mako**
You're right.
**[17:09] Shinon**
We're back!
**[17:10] Nana**
Oh, they've returned.
**[17:13] Nana**
Welcome back.
**[17:14] Tsutsuji; Kurea**
Welcome back.
**[17:16] Mako**
Thanks.
**[17:18] Shinon**
What did you three do?
**[17:20] Kurea**
Just took it easy and did some reading.
**[17:22] Nana**
Metal puzzles.
**[17:23] Tsutsuji**
Ukelele and firestarting.
**[17:26] Mako**
Were you all okay for lunch?
**[17:29] Tsutsuji**
We managed to get a fire started,
so we made instant noodles.
**[17:33] Mako**
S-Sorry! I forgot to explain
how to start the fire.
**[17:37] Tsutsuji**
It's all right. It was a valuable
learning experience.
**[17:39] Mako**
I'll get dinner ready right away.
**[17:42] Kurea**
Ah, okay.
**[17:45] Shinon**
Hup!
**[17:51] Mako**
With these ingredients...
How about we make hot pot?
**[17:53] Kurea**
Right. We can make one with chicken,
mushroom, and white dashi.
**[17:57] Nana**
Makocchan! We have the charcoal set up.
**[18:00] Mako**
Thanks! I'll light the fire, then.
**[18:03] Nana**
I'm excited to see your skills
in action, Makocchan!
**[18:05] Mako**
Honestly, you're making
too big a deal of this.
**[18:08] Mako**
Found it!
**[18:11] Mako**
We just use this torch.
**[18:13] MAko**
It lets you light the fire in no time at all.
**[18:15] Mako**
Uh, is something wrong?
**[18:17] Nana**
No. Nothing.
**[18:26] Mako; internal**
* Cut the ingredients for the*
* hot pot into bite-sized pieces.*
**[18:29] Mako; internal**
* Slice the burdock root thinly, then soak it*
* in cold water to remove the astringency.*
**[18:34] Mako; internal**
* Mix flour, potato starch, salt, and water*
* together to make suiton dumplings.*
**[18:39] Mako; internal**
* Knead until the dough*
* is as soft as your earlobe.*
**[18:45] Mako; internal**
* Transfer the fire to the kamado*
* stove and cook the rice.*
**[18:50] Mako; internal**
* Breathe into the blowpipe at a angle*
* without putting your mouth directly on it.*
**[18:56] Mako; internal**
* Wait for fifteen minutes while monitoring*
* the heat of the fire so nothing burns.*
**[19:00] Mako; internal**
* Add the seasonings, broth,*
* and other ingredients to the pot.*
**[19:04] Mako; internal**
*Simmer until everything is cooked through.*
**[19:10] Mako; internal**
* Take some cleaned char, and skewer them*
* to prepare them for cooking over the irori.*
**[19:19] Mako; internal**
* Sprinkle them with salt*
* and turn them frequently.*
**[19:23] Mako; internal**
* Roast them slowly until they*
* take on a good, dark color.*
**[19:33] Mako; internal**
* After steaming for fifteen more minutes,*
* the kamado-cooked rice is ready!*
**[19:38] Mako; internal**
* Once the hot pot ingredients*
* are cooked through,*
**[19:41] Mako; internal**
*add some white miso as a finishing touch,*
**[19:44] Mako; internal**
* and the chicken, mushroom,*
* and white dashi hot pot is ready!*
**[19:49] Shinon**
It looks so good!
**[19:52] Shinon**
Well, then...
**[19:54] everyone**
Time to eat!
**[20:01] Tsutsuji**
The mushrooms have a great
texture. They're delicious!
**[20:06] Shinon**
It's gleaming!
**[20:10] Shinon**
Wow!
**[20:14] Shinon**
For some reason, it tastes
sweeter than usual!
**[20:16] Kurea**
Yeah, it's different from
the usual rice-cooker kind.
**[20:19] Kurea**
It's plumper, or firmer...
**[20:25] Nana**
Wow! It's so good!
**[20:27] Nana**
The flesh is so hot and tender!
**[20:35] Tsutsuji**
Thanks to you, Makocchi, I experienced
all kinds of things today. It was fun.
**[20:39] Nana**
It was the first time I ever started
a fire with flint and striker!
**[20:42] Mako**
With flint and striker?
**[20:43] Mako**
Oh, I made suiton dumplings to finish
things off. Can you still eat more?
**[20:47] girls**
Yes!
**[20:52] Nana**
That was delicious!
**[20:54] Shinon**
I'm so full.
**[20:56] Kurea**
It's gotten kind of chilly, so it was nice
to eat something that warms you up.
**[21:00] Tsutsuji**
We should go take our baths
before we get cold again.
**[21:03] Kurea**
Yeah.
**[21:04] Mako**
U-Um...
**[21:06] Mako**
Before the bath, can we
take a picture together?
**[21:10] Kurea**
Sure, but why all of a sudden?
**[21:12] Mako**
It still doesn't feel quite real having
you all here at my grandma's house,
**[21:17] Mako**
so I wanted to preserve
the evidence in a photo.
**[21:19] Kurea**
Nice idea! Where should we take it?
**[21:21] Tsutsuji**
Shouldn't it be by the irori?
**[21:23] Nana**
I'm all for that!
**[21:25] Mako**
All right, everyone, scoot together!
**[21:28] Mako**
Here we go.
**[21:29] Mako**
Ready, and...
**[21:30] girls**
Thanks for the feast!

**[22:02] Mako; internal**

**[00:05] Mako**
That's so strange.
**[00:07] Mako**
I'm watering them like I should,
but they don't seem to be doing well.
**[00:11] Mako**
Oh, I know!
**[00:16] Sakura**
Hello! What's up, Mako-chan?
**[00:19] Mako**
*Sorry to call you out of nowhere.*
**[00:21] Mako**
* The thing is, I've started growing*
* some winter veggies at home, but...*
**[00:29] Sakura**
*I see.*
**[00:31] Sakura**
*So they don't seem to be growing very well?*
**[00:33] Mako**
Th-That's right.
**[00:34] Sakura**
* How about I give you something that you*
* can use to help your vegetables grow?*
**[00:38] Mako**
Huh? You'd do that?
**[00:39] Sakura**
* Sure! It's only natural to help*
* each other in times of trouble.*
**[00:43] Mako**
Thank you so much!
**[00:50] Mako**
That's a relief.
**[00:51] Mako**
You'll all be feeling better very soon, okay?

**[02:30] Shinon**
Another day of hard work down!
**[02:32] Shinon**
My IQ's gotta be, like,
50 points higher by now.
**[02:35] Tsutsuji**
You certainly did study hard.
**[02:36] Nana**
What was your starting IQ?
**[02:39] Nana**
Whoa, no way! It's pitch-black outside!
**[02:42] Shinon**
I guess we should get going.
**[02:43] Tsutsuji**
Indeed.
**[02:45] Shinon**
Thanks, both of you, for doing this with me.
**[02:49] Nana**
I never thought I'd ever hear the words
"let's study" come out of your mouth.
**[02:53] Tsutsuji**
Though all you did was copy Nana's notes.
**[02:58] Nana**
Oh!
**[03:00] Shinon**
Is something wrong?
**[03:01] Nana**
I might've left something
back in the classroom.
**[03:03] Shinon**
Really? That's no good.
**[03:05] Tsutsuji**
Do you want to go back and get it?
**[03:07] Nana**
Y-Yeah.
**[03:18] Tsutsuji**
Is it there?
**[03:20] Nana**
Found it!
**[03:22] Shinon**
Good! Now, let's get outta here!
**[03:25] Nana**
Huh?
**[03:25] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan, the light went...
**[03:31] Nana**
H-Hey!
**[03:33] Nana**
Don't scare me like that!
**[03:34] Tsutsuji**
Sorry.
**[03:36] Tsutsuji**
The atmosphere was so perfect,
I just couldn't help myself.
**[03:39] Nana**
Atmosphere aside, you can't
go around scaring people!
**[03:42] Shinon**
Indeed. It's not good to startle others.
**[03:45] Tsutsuji**
R-Right.
**[03:47] Shinon**
That's why we'll ease into it instead
with a round of ghost stories!
**[03:50] Nana**
No! I don't wanna! I won't do it!
**[03:53] Shinon**
This isn't an urban legend...
**[03:56] Shinon**
but apparently, a phantom woman in
a hood haunts this school every night.
**[04:01] Nana**
W-Wait! I didn't agree to this! Stop it!
**[04:05] Shinon**
I'm just kidding! Come on, let's go!
**[04:08] Nana**
Seriously, don't do that!
**[04:10] Tsutsuji**
You really are a scaredy-cat, aren't you?
**[04:21] Tsutsuji**
Oh. The doors are locked.
**[04:23] Shinon**
But why?
**[04:24] Nana**
They should still be open at this time...
**[04:28] Nana**
Oh, there's a notice.
***SIGN*** Notice of Change to Building Access Hours
***SIGN*** During the exam period, the access hours
for the school buildings will be shortened.
**[04:30] Nana**
"During the exam period, the access hours
for the school buildings will be shortened"?
**[04:35] Shinon**
Oh, that's right! They're
closing earlier this week!
**[04:39] Tsutsuji**
I completely forgot.
**[04:41] Nana**
Then... how do we get out?
**[04:45] Shinon**
The doors by the office might still be open!
**[04:49] Shinon**
Though we might get yelled at if they
find out we're here after hours.
**[04:52] Nana**
I don't want that clerk to yell at us,
but that's the only way out.
**[04:56] Tsutsuji**
Just a moment.
**[04:58] Shinon**
What is it?
**[04:59] Tsutsuji**
There's something I was told last week
by someone else in our year level.
**[05:03] Nana**
What? What is it? More of that scary story?
**[05:06] Tsutsuji**
No.
**[05:08] Tsutsuji**
Apparently, there was a club that stayed
in a school building past closing time.
**[05:13] Nana**
And...
**[05:14] Tsutsuji**
When that club's actions came to light...
**[05:20] Tsutsuji**
they were apparently forced to disband.
**[05:23] Nana**
What?! That's scary in a whole different—
**[05:25] Shinon**
Nana, quiet!
**[05:27] Nana**
So this could be the end of the
Food Culture Research Club?
**[05:29] Shinon**
If that's true, then the moment
we're spotted, it's all over!
**[05:34] Nana**
S-So what do we do?
**[05:36] Shinon**
W-We just won't get caught.
**[05:38] Shinon**
We'll get out of here before anyone finds out!
**[05:40] Tsutsuji**
R-Right. First, let's head for the office.
**[05:55] Tsutsuji**
I'll get down low and scout the path out first.
**[05:59] Shinon**
You'll do that for us?
**[06:01] Tsutsuji**
I'll keep an eye on the office,
and if I see an opening, I'll signal you.
**[06:05] Tsutsuji**
Then you two follow after me.
**[06:08] Shinon**
Right. Roger that!
**[06:23] clerk's kouhai**
Oh, Senpai. Isn't it about time we checked
that the doors are properly locked?
**[06:27] clerk**
Oh, that's right.
**[06:28] clerk**
We're supposed to do that during
the exam period, aren't we?
**[06:31] clerk's kouhai**
Speaking of which, I heard there's a rumor
going around among the students.
**[06:36] clerk's kouhai**
They say a phantom woman
wearing a hood appears here at night.
**[06:40] clerk**
Well, the students do love their scary stories.
**[06:44] clerk**
Come on. Let's go check those doors.
**[06:48] clerk's kouhai**
Okay!
**[06:53] Tsutsuji**
This is bad!
**[06:54] Tsutsuji**
The clerk's about to come this way!
**[06:56] Shinon**
What? For real?
**[06:57] Nana**
Th-Then we need to get out of here!
**[07:00] Shinon**
The second floor! Run to the second floor!
**[07:07] clerk's kouhai**
I'll check the ones over there, then.
**[07:10] clerk**
Got it.
**[07:20] Shinon**
W-We ran and hid in the second floor
locker room without thinking.
**[07:25] Shinon**
If we were on the first floor, we might
have been able to escape through a window.
**[07:28] Tsutsuji**
Wh-What do we do? We've only gotten
farther away from the office.
**[07:37] Nana**
If we stay here, it's only a matter
of time before we're caught.
**[07:40] Shinon**
Yeah. Let's move away.
**[07:48] clerk**
Hey! Is someone there?
**[07:51] Shinon**
Oh, no! She found us! Run away!
**[07:54] clerk**
Wait!
**[07:59] clerk**
I couldn't see clearly in the dark,
but they were students, weren't they?
**[08:06] clerk**
Seriously, stop running!
**[08:10] Tsutsuji**
P-Please wait for me!
Running really isn't my thing!
**[08:22] clerk**
A hooded woman?
**[08:25] clerk**
Wait... Are you from the
Food Culture Research Club?
**[08:29] Tsutsuji**
N-No! I'm just a little lost sheep!
**[08:32] clerk**
There's no need to lie.
**[08:34] clerk**
So the others were from the Food
Culture Research Club, too, then?
**[08:47] clerk**
Another hooded woman...
**[08:50] clerk**
No, another member of the
Food Culture Research Club?
**[08:56] clerk**
Hey! Don't run! Stop!
**[09:02] Shinon**
Which way was the office again?
**[09:06] Nana**
Hold on! We've lost Hitsuji-chan!
**[09:08] Shinon**
F-For real?
**[09:10] Nana**
We have to find her quickly
and run away together!
**[09:13] clerk**
Oh? And where were you planning to run?
**[09:18] Shinon**
W-We're so very sorry!
**[09:20] clerk**
You don't have to kneel like that.
Why did you run away at all?
**[09:24] Shinon**
We were here studying, and the building
got locked up before we realized it.
**[09:29] Shinon**
We heard that if we got caught,
our club would be disbanded.
**[09:34] Shinon**
We shouldn't have run! Please, grant us mercy!
**[09:40] Shinon; background**
Sob, sob, sob!
**[09:40] clerk**
It's hard to tell you this when
you're kneeling in apology like that,
**[09:44] clerk**
but that rumor isn't true.
**[09:47] Tsutsuji; Shinon; Nana**
What?
**[09:48] clerk**
No club has ever been disbanded
for something like that.
**[09:52] clerk**
Even if action were taken,
at most, you'd get a mild warning.
**[09:56] Shinon**
R-Really? What a relief!
**[09:59] Tsutsuji**
I lost a few years of my life back there.
**[10:02] clerk**
Just do your best not to contribute
to the spread of these baseless rumors.
**[10:06] clerk**
You're not the first ones to get fooled
and send us on a wild goose chase.
**[10:11] clerk**
And that hooded lady rumor started
because of you guys, didn't it?
**[10:16] clerk**
Which of you was the hooded
one I saw running before?
**[10:18] Shinon**
Huh? Someone wearing a hood?
Besides Tsutsuji, you mean?
**[10:22] clerk**
There was another hooded girl besides her.
**[10:26] Shinon**
My clothes don't have a hood,
and Nana's don't, either.
**[10:30] Nana**
Right. Right.
**[10:33] Tsutsuji**
I saw the hooded woman, too. But it's just
been the three of us together the whole time.
**[10:39] Tsutsuji**
We didn't have anyone else with us.
**[10:45] Shinon**
You don't think... you saw the actual
hooded lady from the rumor, do you?
**[10:52] clerk**
I...
**[10:54] clerk**
I did.
**[10:56] Shinon**
Oh, crap! You're totally cursed now!
**[11:00] clerk**
Cursed? Is that how it works?
Is she the cursing type?!
**[11:03] Tsutsuji**
I was with you when it happened,
so am I cursed, too?
**[11:06] Tsutsuji**
Shinon, I'll pass some of it to you!
**[11:07] Shinon**
No! Don't do it!
**[11:16] Sakura**
That sure gave me a start!
**[11:19] Sakura**
I always wear my hood to hide
my face when I'm studying late,
**[11:23] Sakura**
but it seems I've finally been found out.
**[11:26] Sakura**
I wonder if I should go
and apologize to that clerk.
**[11:30] Sakura**
But if that rumor is true,
they might disband my club for it...
**[11:37] Sakura**
Well, I'll think about it later.
**[11:40] Sakura**
The moon sure is pretty tonight.
**[11:51] Nana**
Oh, that's right.
It's already almost Christmas.
**[11:56] Mako**
What? A Christmas party?
**[11:58] Nana**
Yeah! We could have a gift exchange,
**[12:01] Nana**
make a toast while eating roast chicken,
**[12:03] Nana**
watch a movie...
**[12:05] Mako**
Sounds like fun!
**[12:06] Nana**
Right?
**[12:08] Kurea**
Don't look at me with those sparkling eyes.
**[12:11] Kurea**
I have to help at the restaurant on
Christmas Eve, but the next day is fine.
**[12:16] Tsutsuji**
I'm free then, too.
**[12:18] Nana**
All right! Yay!
**[12:20] Kurea**
She's not here yet, but I guess
it's down to Shinon now.
**[12:24] Shinon**
Hey, guys! Are you free for Christmas?
**[12:28] Kurea**
I think she's on board.
**[12:31] Nana**
So, where will we have our Christmas party?
**[12:34] Shinon**
Oh, and we're gonna cook, right?
**[12:36] Mako**
Yes, I was planning to,
**[12:39] Mako**
but since Christmas is a special occasion,
**[12:41] Mako**
I thought it might be nice to do it somewhere
with better equipment than the club room.
**[12:45] Shinon**
In that case, I think your place
would be perfect, Makocchi!
**[12:48] Mako**
What? My place?
**[12:50] Shinon**
Yup! Now that I think about it,
**[12:52] Shinon**
I haven't been to your place once
since we met here in Tokyo!
**[12:56] Tsutsuji**
I'd like to see your place, too.
**[12:58] Kurea**
It's a bit tough on her to decide
this on such short notice.
**[13:01] Kurea**
Mako, are you sure it's okay?
**[13:03] Mako**
Sure! It'll be fine.
**[13:05] Mako**
I can't wait for the party!
**[13:07] Mako**
I did say that, but...
**[13:09] Mako**
This is my first time having friends over,
**[13:13] Mako**
so now that the party's tomorrow,
I'm getting nervous.
**[13:17] Mako**
I might have missed a few spots
while cleaning. Better clean again.
**[13:29] Mako**
There. I think that should do it.
**[13:33] Mako**
I've already bought all the ingredients
for what we're cooking,
**[13:36] Mako**
and the bath bomb I ordered online as a
present should arrive tomorrow morning.
**[13:40] Mako**
Yup! I'm all set!
**[13:43] Mako**
Actually, I should probably decorate... right?
**[13:46] Mako**
If I go to the general store by the station,
I should be able to get all kinds of stuff.
**[13:50] Mako**
Okay!
**[13:57] Mako**
All of this, please!
**[13:58] checker**
Th-Thank you for your business.
**[14:21] Mako**
I'll hang this here, and...
**[14:23] Mako**
Okay! It's looking good!
**[14:37] Mako**
Is it morning already?
**[14:40] Mako**
Yup. It's perfect.
**[14:42] Mako**
I really worked hard through
the night to put these up!
**[14:46] Mako**
It should be okay if I've
got all of this, right?
**[14:49] Mako**
And the time right now is...
**[14:51] Mako**
12:40 PM?
**[14:54] Mako**
Hang on.
**[14:55] Mako**
When was the bath bomb I was going to
give as a present supposed to arrive?

Hey, Nana!
**[15:16] Nana**
Oh! Guys!
**[15:18] Shinon**
Hello!
**[15:19] Tsutsuji**
That's quite a large sack.
Is your present that big?
**[15:23] Nana**
It's in there, but I brought
something else cool, as well.
**[15:27] Kurea**
Really? What is it?
**[15:28] Nana**
That's a secret! You can
look forward to finding out.
**[15:32] Kurea**
Aw...
**[15:35] Shinon**
We're here, Makocchi!
**[15:39] Mako**
Welcome to... welcome...
**[15:43] Shinon**
What's wrong, Makocchi?
**[15:46] Mako**
So, I scheduled my present to be delivered
today, but I missed the delivery time.
**[15:54] Mako**
I asked for it to be redelivered, but, um...
**[16:01] Mako**
I'm sorry, everyone.
**[16:03] Shinon**
What? Is that all it was?
**[16:05] Mako**
Huh?
**[16:06] Kurea**
You can just give your present later.
**[16:08] Kurea**
That makes one more thing to look forward to!
**[16:11] Shinon**
I thought it was gonna be something serious!
**[16:13] Tsutsuji**
Indeed.
**[16:15] Tsutsuji**
And wow, you really went
all-out on the decorations.
**[16:19] Tsutsuji**
Is that a home vegetable garden?
**[16:22] Mako**
Oh, yeah. I've been having some
trouble getting them to grow,
**[16:25] Mako**
so I asked Sakura-senpai for advice.
**[16:28] Mako**
I've also been growing
pea sprouts in the kitchen,
**[16:32] Mako**
so I was thinking of using
those in the dishes today.
**[16:34] Tsutsuji**
Wow! I'm looking forward to it!
**[16:37] Nana**
Oh, that's right! I brought
a little something, too.
**[16:42] Nana**
Ta-da!
**[16:43] Nana**
I asked my big sister to lend me the Santa
costumes they used in the shop last year!
**[16:48] Nana**
After you finish cooking, Makocchan,
we can wear these while we eat!
**[16:51] Nana**
I've got enough for everyone,
so please wear them if you'd like!
**[16:55] Tsutsuji**
Oh, sounds like fun.
**[16:57] Kurea**
You did all this for us?
**[16:59] Shinon**
Ooh, let's see!
**[17:02] Kurea**
Well, should we start cooking?
**[17:04] Mako**
Yes, let's.
**[17:06] Nana**
What are you making?
**[17:08] Mako**
Let's see. A pea sprout wreath
salad with bruschetta...
**[17:12] Mako**
and that's just the beginning!
**[17:16] Mako**
Okay, let's get started!
**[17:18] Kurea**
Sure.
**[17:20] Mako; internal**
* Take out the chicken marinated in salt,*
* garlic, olive oil, and rosemary.*
**[17:28] Mako; internal**
* Roast it in the oven until it's*
* completely cooked through.*
**[17:36] Mako; internal**
*Harvest the pea shoots for the salad,*
**[17:39] Mako; internal**
*then cut them into bite-sized pieces.*
**[17:47] Mako; internal**
* Form the salad into the shape*
* of a wreath using lettuce,*
**[17:51] Mako; internal**
*pea shoots, ham, and cherry tomatoes.*
**[17:55] Mako; internal**
* Prepare two kinds of toppings*
* for the bruschetta,*
**[17:59] Mako; internal**
*then pile them high on top of the bread.*
**[18:02] Mako; internal**
*Remove the cooked chicken from the oven,*
**[18:05] Mako; internal**
*and it's ready!*
**[18:07] Kurea**
Thanks for waiting!
**[18:08] Mako**
It's ready!
**[18:12] Shinon**
That classic roast chicken looks so good!
**[18:15] Nana**
And the bruschetta look delicious, too!
**[18:18] Tsutsuji**
The cream soup smells wonderful.
**[18:21] Mako**
Isn't it nice having a Christmas-themed salad?
**[18:24] Kurea**
Oh, before we eat, let's change into
the Santa outfits that Nana brought!
**[18:29] Shinon**
Aw, yeah! Lemme wear one!
**[18:32] Shinon**
So...
**[18:33] Shinon**
Why am I a reindeer?
**[18:35] Nana**
We were one outfit short.
**[18:37] Shinon**
Well, then, a toast to Christmas!
**[18:39] everyone**
Cheers!
**[18:45] Kurea**
I'll carve the chicken,
so eat as much as you want!
**[18:48] everyone**
Okay!
**[18:58] Tsutsuji**
This bruschetta is delicious!
**[19:00] Nana**
It's so good!
**[19:01] Mako**
Really?
**[19:01] Shinon**
Another serving of chicken!
**[19:03] Kurea**
Coming up.
**[19:04] Shinon**
Thanks!
**[19:07] Kurea**
I cut the cake.
**[19:13] Shinon**
Kurea, why is your strawberry bigger?
**[19:15] Kurea**
I'm sure they're all the same size.
**[19:18] Tsutsuji**
This cake sure is delicious.
**[19:21] Nana**
Hitsuji-chan, you have whipped
cream on your cheek.
**[19:25] Tsutsuji**
Thank you.
**[19:27] Mako; internal**
* A familiar room, now filled*
* with familiar friends.*
**[19:32] Mako; internal**
* That's all it is... and yet it*
* feels special, somehow.*
**[19:40] Mako**
It's so good!

**[19:50] Shinon**
According to the fair and
impartial ghost leg lottery...
**[19:52] Shinon**
My present goes to Tsutsuji!
**[19:55] Shinon**
Open it! Open it!
**[19:57] Tsutsuji**
In that case...
**[19:59] Tsutsuji**
Oh, it's a scarf!
**[20:02] Tsutsuji**
Thank you very much.
**[20:04] Shinon**
You're welcome!
**[20:06] Kurea**
Tsutsuji's present is a sheep-shaped mug!
**[20:10] Kurea**
It's so cute!
**[20:12] Tsutsuji**
Feel free to become obsessed
with that little guy.
**[20:16] Nana**
My gift from Kurea-chan is a hat!
**[20:19] Nana**
This is great! I was just thinking I wanted one!
**[20:22] Kurea**
Really? I'm so glad!
**[20:24] Nana**
Okay, Makocchan! Open your present from me!
**[20:27] Mako**
O-Okay.

Oh, it's lipstick!
**[20:31] Mako**
Thank you, Nana-chan!
**[20:33] Shinon**
Wow, you know your stuff!
**[20:36] Kurea**
Nicely done, Nana!
**[20:37] Nana**
Right? Feel free to praise my
feminine prowess even more.
**[20:42] Tsutsuji**
What brand is it?
**[20:45] Nana**
Brand?
**[20:46] Kurea**
Oh, her sister chose it.
**[20:48] Mako**
So... I'm supposed to give my present
to you, Shinon-chan, but...
**[20:52] Shinon**
Oh, don't worry about it!
Whenever it arrives is fine!
**[20:55] Shinon**
Should we watch a movie together next?
**[20:58] Mako**
Okay. Sorry about this, Shinon-chan.
**[21:01] Mako**
Oh, could that be...
**[21:03] Shinon**
Is it here?
**[21:05] Mako**
Coming!
**[21:08] Mako**
Yay! Your present arrived!
**[21:11] Shinon**
Makocchi, can I open it?
**[21:13] Mako**
Yes, please do.
**[21:19] Shinon**
Let's see.
**[21:21] Shinon**
Oh, this is...
**[21:23] Mako**
That's right! It's a bath bomb!
And quite a nice one, too!
**[21:29] Shinon**
Ah.
**[21:31] Shinon**
What are these? Fallen leaves?
**[21:33] Tsutsuji**
There seems to be dirt in here, too.
**[21:35] Mako**
Huh?
**[21:36] Shinon**
Smells kinda funny, too.
**[21:38] Shinon**
This is a bath bomb?
**[21:40] Shinon**
Oh, I know! It's a mud bath!
It's a mud bath bomb, right?
**[21:44] Shinon**
Thank you, Makocchi!
**[21:47] Mako**
Th-That's not what I ordered.
**[21:51] Mako**
What the heck?!
**[21:54] Mako**
Huh?
**[21:59] Sakura**
I hope Mako-chan likes the compost
I made for her from fallen leaves.
**[22:05] Sakura**
I hope her home garden
grows up big and strong.
**[22:11] Sakura**
Snow?

Oh, it's a white Christmas!

Hello!
**[03:23] clerk**
Oh, you're from the Food
Culture Research Club.
**[03:25] Mako**
Sorry to bother you for the
club room key on New Year's Eve.
**[03:29] clerk**
It's fine. That said, I agreed to lend it to
you on the grounds that you'd be cleaning,
**[03:33] clerk**
so please clean it well.
**[03:34] Mako**
W-We will!
**[03:37] clerk**
Are those cooking ingredients?
**[03:39] Mako**
Yes. I thought we could all eat together
once we were done cleaning.
**[03:42] clerk**
You'll have a hard time cooking
outside in this cold weather.
**[03:46] clerk**
If you have an induction cooker,
you can use that inside.
**[03:48] Mako**
Great! We actually just got a
portable one for the club room.
**[03:52] clerk**
That's good. Don't get too rowdy just
because it's New Year's Eve, now.
**[03:56] Mako**
Understood!
**[03:57] clerk**
Well, take care.
**[03:59] Mako**
Thanks for everything!
**[04:03] clerk**
Oh, that's right.
**[04:06] clerk**
Have a happy new year.
**[04:08] Mako**
Thank you! I hope you have
a happy new year, too!
**[04:13] Mako**
Sorry, did I keep you waiting?
**[04:15] Tsutsuji**
We all just got here.
**[04:17] Kurea**
Thanks for taking care of the groceries!
**[04:19] Nana**
Good work, Makocchan!
**[04:21] Mako**
Thanks.
**[04:23] Shinon**
I've called you all here today so that we can
give our club room a thorough cleaning.
**[04:28] Shinon**
But if I may speak frankly...
**[04:30] Shinon**
I don't want to clean.
**[04:33] Shinon**
To be honest, I'd like nothing more than to
sit back eating snacks while you handle it.
**[04:38] Tsutsuji**
That's a little *too* honest.
**[04:40] Shinon**
However!
**[04:41] Shinon**
I know that if I said that out loud,
you'd all get mad! So clean I shall!
**[04:45] Shinon**
Let's give it all we've got!
**[04:47] Kurea**
You did say it out loud.
**[04:48] Nana**
Yes, she did.
**[04:49] Mako**
She sure did.
**[04:52] Kurea**
Well, why don't we start by taking out
anything that could get in the way?
**[04:55] everyone**
Okay.
**[04:58] Kurea**
There.
**[05:00] Shinon**
Can I put this here, too?
**[05:02] Kurea**
Okay.
**[05:09] Mako**
This is the walking stick that
Shinon-chan bought at Mt. Takao.
**[05:12] Mako**
That brings back memories.
**[05:16] Mako; internal**
*The refrigerator, the furniture...*
**[05:18] Mako; internal**
* Shinon-chan and Tsutsuji-chan sure*
* helped us out by finding lots of stuff.*
**[05:22] Mako; internal**
* Standing here like this is reminding me*
* of the first time we cleaned this room.*
**[05:40] Mako**
No, no.
**[05:41] Mako**
Cleaning first, reminiscing later.
**[05:45] Mako**
Shinon-chan, this is...
**[05:47] Shinon**
Oh, that brings back memories!
**[05:49] Nana**
Hmm...
**[05:51] Nana**
What should we do with this?
Air it out in the sun?
**[05:55] Tsutsuji**
Oh, just a moment, please.
**[06:01] Tsutsuji**
This is how you wash the sheep.
**[06:04] Nana**
Ah!
**[06:06] Nana**
Come to think of it, I wore a mascot
costume during the festival,
**[06:10] Nana**
but maybe I could've used this instead.
**[06:11] Tsutsuji**
Wanna try wearing it next year, then?
**[06:14] Tsutsuji**
Or even now, for a little bit?
**[06:16] Nana**
I do, I do!
**[06:18] Shinon**
There! I think we've moved most
of the big stuff out of the way.
**[06:24] Shinon**
Whoa, what's that?
**[06:26] Tsutsuji**
We were thinking she could use this
as her costume for next year's festival.
**[06:30] Shinon**
Please don't.
**[06:40] Shinon**
Who dropped a plastic bottle cap here?
**[06:44] Shinon**
Nana, Tsutsuji!
**[06:56] Shinon**
Here goes the first pitch!
**[07:04] Kurea**
You know what I'm going to say, don't you?
**[07:07] Shinon; Tsutsuji; Nana**
Yes, ma'am.
**[07:08] Mako; internal**
*I feel like I've seen this before.*
**[07:16] Shinon**
Cleaning's all done!
**[07:18] Nana**
And somehow we have a kotatsu now.
**[07:20] Kurea**
The table was actually a kotatsu all along.
**[07:23] Kurea**
I just brought a blanket so we can use it.
**[07:25] Tsutsuji**
Ooh, good job.
**[07:30] Shinon**
Come on, everyone! Hurry up and get in!
**[07:37] Nana**
It's so toasty.
**[07:40] Shinon**
Oh, Makocchi!
**[07:42] Shinon**
Could you grab that bag behind you?
**[07:44] Mako**
What, this?
**[07:46] Shinon**
Yeah.
**[07:47] Mako**
Here.
**[07:47] Shinon**
Thank you.
**[07:51] Tsutsuji**
A corkboard?
**[07:53] Shinon**
That's right!
**[07:54] Shinon**
I got prints of all the pictures
we've taken so far,
**[07:56] Shinon**
and I was thinking we could
display them on this.
**[07:59] Kurea**
Oh, sounds good!
**[08:01] Mako**
Just like a real club!
**[08:02] Nana**
Oh, that's right!
**[08:09] Nana**
Let's use these to write
messages on the photos!
**[08:11] Mako**
Oh, I like that idea!
**[08:13] Kurea**
Okay!
**[08:21] Kurea**
This photo really brings back memories!
**[08:23] Shinon**
Which one? Let me see!
**[08:24] Shinon**
Oh, the Ferris wheel!
I want to ride that again sometime.
**[08:27] Nana**
I know, right?
***SIGN*** Pizza at our club camp!
**[08:34] Mako**
There!
**[08:36] Tsutsuji**
Stare.
**[08:38] Mako**
Wh-What is it, Tsutsuji-chan?
**[08:40] Tsutsuji**
Oh, it's nothing.
**[08:42] Tsutsuji**
Just that when I compare the early
photos of you with more recent ones,
**[08:45] Tsutsuji**
your expression seems a lot more relaxed now.
**[08:49] Mako**
What?
**[08:50] Mako**
Don't look so closely! It's embarrassing!
**[08:54] Tsutsuji**
Mwah-ha-ha. It's too late for that now.
**[08:56] Kurea**
It's nothing to be embarrassed about. It just
shows that you've gotten comfortable here.
**[09:01] Nana**
I'm glad I got comfortable
with Makocchan, too.
**[09:04] Tsutsuji**
When you first came to the club,
you were frozen with fear.
**[09:07] Nana**
Yeah, my heart was pounding
so hard that day.
**[09:10] Nana**
And to top it off, Makocchan started yelling
about flying takoyaki all of a sudden.
**[09:14] Mako**
Please don't bring that up now, Nana-chan!
**[09:24] Shinon**
There! It's done!
**[09:26] Nana**
It looks great!
**[09:28] Shinon**
Now, let's all get back under
the kotatsu and play cards!
**[09:31] Mako**
I should've brought some mandarins.
**[09:33] Kurea**
Huh?
***SIGN*** Suffer!!
**[09:34] Kurea**
Hey, someone made a mistake
with the writing on this one.
**[09:38] Tsutsuji**
The kanji for "happiness" was
written as "suffering" instead.
**[09:42] Nana**
You're right! Who wrote that?
**[09:45] Shinon**
Sheesh. Would it kill you guys to treat
our precious memories with more—
***SIGN*** shinon
**[09:49] Shinon**
It was me.
**[10:03] Nana**
A kotatsu is a dangerous thing.
**[10:05] Kurea**
It's the spell of the kotatsu.
**[10:08] Tsutsuji**
It makes you just laze around forever.
**[10:14] Mako**
I'm getting kinda hungry, though.
**[10:17] Shinon**
Makocchi, what are you making today?
**[10:21] Mako**
Soba noodles and rolled sushi.
**[10:25] Shinon**
Sounds good.
**[10:51] Kurea**
No, no! We have to cook!
**[10:56] Kurea**
At this rate, the new year will pass us by!
**[11:07] Kurea**
Zombies. I see zombies.
**[11:12] Nana**
That's freezing!
**[11:14] Nana**
It's cold! So cold!
**[11:17] Tsutsuji**
I've lit a fire in this coal brazier,
**[11:19] Tsutsuji**
so when you're done with that,
come and get warmed up.
**[11:22] Nana**
I'll be right there.
**[11:26] Tsutsuji**
If there's a fire to be started,
just leave it to me.
**[11:28] Shinon**
I'm impressed, Sensei.
**[11:37] Kurea**
All right. Shall we get started?
**[11:40] Mako**
Okay!
**[11:41] Mako; internal**
*First, make the stock for the soba broth.*
**[11:45] Mako; internal**
*Take the kelp out before it comes to a boil,*
**[11:47] Mako; internal**
* add shredded bonito and dried shiitake*
* mushroom, and then simmer for five minutes.*
**[11:53] Mako; internal**
* While waiting, slice up the ingredients*
* for the hand-rolled sushi.*
**[12:00] Mako; internal**
*Allow the stock to cool a little.*
**[12:02] Mako; internal**
* Strain it, but don't press out*
* any stock from the ingredients.*
**[12:06] Mako; internal**
*Add unrefined sugar, sake, mirin,*
**[12:08] Mako; internal**
* and soy sauce to the stock,*
* then bring it back to a boil.*
**[12:12] Nana**
It's so nice and warm!
**[12:15] Mako; internal**
* Grill the duck meat*
* and onions over charcoal,*
**[12:18] Mako; internal**
*and boil the soba noodles.*
**[12:23] Mako; internal**
*Make vinegared sushi rice,*
**[12:26] Mako; internal**
*then top the soba with the finished broth,*
**[12:31] Mako; internal**
* and the Kamo Nanban Soba with*
* Hand-Rolled Sushi is ready!*
**[12:35] Mako**
And now...
**[12:36] everyone**
Time to eat!
**[12:39] Tsutsuji**
What an extravagant spread.
**[12:41] Kurea**
Where do I start?
**[12:42] Shinon**
I'm taking some tuna!
**[12:54] Tsutsuji**
Sushi eaten at the kotatsu just can't be beat.
**[12:57] Nana**
You're so right.
**[12:59] Shinon**
It smells amazing!
**[13:06] Mako**
What do you think of the soba?
**[13:07] Shinon**
The broth is so good!
**[13:09] Kurea**
And the duck is so tender and delicious!
**[13:12] Tsutsuji**
I grilled that.
**[13:14] Shinon**
Good job!
**[13:15] Shinon**
If celebrating the new year is this yummy,
**[13:16] Shinon**
I'll feel like I'm missing out
if we don't do it every month!
**[13:19] Nana**
I second that!
**[13:20] Mako**
Leave it to me!
**[13:21] Kurea**
I don't think that would
be a new year, though.
**[13:23] Tsutsuji**
Well, there'll be something
to celebrate. There always is.
**[13:29] everyone**
Thanks for the feast!
***SIGN*** Food
Finished
Well Eaten!
***SIGN*** Food

Well Eaten!
**[13:34] Nana**
That was delicious!
**[13:36] Shinon**
Right?
**[13:37] Shinon**
And we're done cleaning, so we can
just relax until the new year comes.
**[13:43] Tsutsuji**
We still have to do the dishes, though.
**[13:46] Shinon**
Let's leave that to the us of next year.
**[13:49] Kurea**
No. We're doing it now.
**[13:52] Shinon**
Really?
**[13:56] Shinon**
It's freezing!
**[13:58] Kurea**
We're almost done. You can deal with it.
**[14:03] Nana**
It's here. It's here!
**[14:06] Nana**
Just one more minute until we
cross over into the new year!
**[14:08] Nana**
Is everyone ready to jump?
**[14:10] Shinon**
I'm not jumping.
**[14:11] Tsutsuji**
I don't want to move.
**[14:13] Nana**
Aw...
**[14:14] Mako**
You know, this might be the first time I've
spent New Year's with anyone besides family.
**[14:19] Kurea**
Me, too.

Happy New Year!
**[14:33] Nana**
Whoosh!
**[14:34] Shinon**
Here's to another great
year together, everyone!
**[14:36] Tsutsuji; Kurea; Mako**
Hear, hear!
**[14:38] Nana**
Lookin' forward to it!
***SIGN*** Happy New Year! I hope the four
of us can get together this year, too!
***SIGN*** New Year's greetings!

*Yuna-chan and Hiyori-chan...*
**[14:50] Mako; internal**
*Mom and Dad texted, too.*
**[14:53] Mako; internal**
* I have lots of people to send*
* New Year's greetings to this year.*
**[15:06] Nana**
Makocchan, if you fall asleep at
the kotatsu, you'll catch a cold.
**[15:10] Tsutsuji**
But being warm and cozy at this time
of night makes it hard not to fall asleep.
**[15:14] Shinon**
C'mon, let's do our New Year's shrine visit.
**[15:16] Tsutsuji**
It's probably really crowded
at the shrine right now, though.
**[15:19] Kurea**
Then do you want to go to
the little one by my place?
**[15:22] Kurea**
It's far, but I came by car today.
**[15:25] Tsutsuji**
Oh. In that case, let's go.
**[15:28] Shinon**
Okay! It's a plan!
**[15:30] Shinon**
Makocchi, let's go to the shrine!
**[15:34] Mako**
'Kay.
**[15:39] Shinon**
Hurry up!
**[15:41] Mako**
Shinon-chan sure is energetic.
**[15:45] Shinon**
Okay, off we go!
**[15:47] Mako**
I'm sleepy.
**[16:12] Nana**
It's so cold!
**[16:13] Kurea**
The shrine's a little way from here on foot.
**[16:15] Shinon**
Then let's run to get warm!
**[16:17] Mako**
We'll tire ourselves out before we get there.
**[16:19] Tsutsuji**
R-Running really isn't my thing,
but if it w-warms me up, I'll do anything.
**[16:25] Shinon**
Hang on! Tsutsuji's shivering like crazy!
**[16:27] Kurea**
Oh, I brought some stick-on hand warmers.
**[16:30] Kurea**
You should all use one.
***SIGN*** Hand Warmers
**[16:31] Shinon**
Wow, you think of everything, Kurea!
**[16:34] Nana**
There, I've stuck one on you.
**[16:36] Tsutsuji**
Ooh. It's warming me right to my core.
**[16:40] Shinon**
Okay! Let's go to the shrine!
**[16:43] everyone**
Yeah!
**[17:11] Shinon**
Wow. It really is pretty empty.
**[17:14] Tsutsuji**
What a hidden gem.
**[17:16] Nana**
Let's go pay our respects
to the gods right away!
**[17:18] Tsutsuji**
We should rinse our hands, then.
**[17:26] Nana**
It's cold!
**[17:28] Nana**
This is way too much washing for one day.
**[17:30] Tsutsuji**
Let's endure it for the sake of our wishes.
**[17:48] Tsutsuji**
Spending big today, I see.
**[17:50] Nana**
What did you wish for?
**[17:53] Shinon**
I wished for a 20,000 yen
raise on my allowance.
**[17:57] Tsutsuji**
Shouldn't you be asking
your parents, not the gods?
**[17:59] Shinon**
Huh? But this way,
I make a profit of 19,000 yen!
**[18:02] Kurea**
I hope your wish comes true.
**[18:04] Shinon**
Yeah!
**[18:09] lady**
Here you go.
**[18:10] Kurea**
Thank you.
**[18:13] Kurea**
Here. It's amazake.
**[18:14] Nana**
Th-Thank you.
**[18:17] Tsutsuji**
It really warms you up, doesn't it?
**[18:19] Mako**
Yeah.
**[18:20] Shinon**
It's not a New Year's shrine visit without it.
**[18:24] Tsutsuji**
Nana, is something wrong?
**[18:26] Nana**
Is amazake really non-alcoholic?
**[18:29] Mako**
It's fine!
**[18:31] Nana**
Really, for real?
**[18:32] Kurea**
Why are you so suspicious of it?
**[18:34] Nana**
Well, because I'm underage,
so if I drink alcohol, I'll get in trouble.
**[18:38] Shinon**
Then give your amazake to me!
**[18:43] Nana**
I don't wanna!
**[18:44] Shinon**
Really?
**[18:47] Nana**
Hey, they've got a campfire going!
Let's go drink over there!
**[18:51] Kurea**
No, that's the otakiage
fire purification ritual.
**[19:03] Shinon**
Kurea, did you bring any marshmallows?
**[19:05] Kurea**
I wouldn't give them to you if I did!
**[19:17] Mako**
It's sort of... relaxing, isn't it?
**[19:20] Shinon**
Yeah.
**[19:22] Mako**
A lot happened last year, huh?
**[19:25] Kurea**
Yeah. That barbecue we cooked after
we went to Tsukiji sure was good.
**[19:30] Shinon**
The pizza at our club camp was yummy, too!
**[19:32] Nana**
Not to mention the hot pot we had
at Makocchan's grandma's place!
**[19:37] Tsutsuji**
It feels like it's been a year
of food-related memories.
**[19:42] Kurea**
You're right.
**[19:44] Shinon**
Well, we *are* the Food Culture
Research Club, so that fits!
**[19:47] Mako**
Let's eat lots more things and
make lots more memories this year.
**[19:53] everyone**
Yeah.
**[20:07] Tsutsuji**
The sky's starting to get lighter.
**[20:09] Shinon**
Yeah.
**[20:10] Kurea**
Mako, are you going home
to your family after this?
**[20:13] Mako**
Yep. I'll be there until classes start.
**[20:15] Shinon**
I'm planning to go home, too.
**[20:17] Nana**
When do classes start?
**[20:20] Tsutsuji**
With all the national holidays,
not until the fourteenth.
**[20:22] Nana**
Then we won't all see each other
again until school starts.
**[20:31] Kurea**
What's wrong, Mako?
**[20:33] Mako**
We forgot to take a photo at the shrine!
**[20:36] Nana**
You're right! Should we go back?
**[20:39] Kurea**
Eh... It's a bit late for that now.
**[20:54] Shinon**
Then let's take one here!
**[20:56] Tsutsuji**
Good idea. It's not every day you have
such a pretty sunrise as a backdrop.
**[21:00] Mako**
I'll take the photo.
**[21:01] Kurea**
Okay.
**[21:03] Kurea**
Then we'll go with the usual phrase, okay?
**[21:05] Kurea**
The one you came up with on the spur
of the moment ended up sticking, huh?
**[21:09] Mako**
I feel sort of embarrassed.
**[21:10] Tsutsuji**
It's fine. I think it's very "us."
**[21:17] Mako**
Okay! Everyone, gather round!
**[21:24] Mako**
Ready, and...
**[21:25] everyone**
Thanks for the feast!
