[01:46] Boy
    I'm hungry, Nako.
[01:48] Girl
    Me too.
[01:49] Nako
    Give me a second.
[01:51] Nako
    Jeez, it's not often I'm off work early,
[01:54] ---
    yet look at what I'm doing...
[01:55] Nako
    Oops...
[01:57] Boy
    I don't want onions.
[01:59] Girl
    Me neither.
[02:00] Nako
    You won't grow if you don't eat-
[02:04] Nako
    If you don't eat your veggies,
[02:06] ---
    the old man from the third district is
[02:07] ---
    gonna steal your belly button!
[02:07] Girl
    No!
[02:12] Mom
    I don't agree.
[02:14] Mom
    Praising a child too much
    is counterproductive.
[02:16] Mom
    What if they get accustomed to it
    and grow up to be lazy?
[02:19] Dad
    No, children are clever.
[02:21] Dad
    If they're praised,
[02:22] ---
    they'll work even harder to become
[02:24] ---
    someone that deserves the praise.
[02:26] Mom
    You're thinking way too positively.
[02:29] Nako
    Can't you discuss this kind of thing at school?
[02:32] Nako
    Now, get changed before dinner!
[02:33] Nako
    And clean this place up please!
[02:36] Mom
    Sorry... Sorry.
[02:37] Mom
    Nako, you make our
    lives so much easier.
[02:39] Dad
    Yeah, definitely.
[02:40] ---
    What would we do without you?
[02:42] Nako
    Considering what I heard you just say,
[02:44] ---
    those words don't hold much credibility.
[02:46] Boy
    Nako, the meal's gonna burn.
[02:48] Nako
    Coming...
[02:50] Nako
    Hey!
[02:51] ---
    How many times do I have to tell
[02:51] Mom
    Nako's so reliable.
[02:53] ---
    you not to steal food?!
[02:54] Dad
    I bet it's because I
    raised her by praising her.
[02:55] Nako
    Now you're going to say
[02:57] Mom
    Hey! Raising a child and
    teaching aren't-
[02:58] ---
    that you're full when dinner's ready!
[02:59] Nako
    Hey!
[03:02] Both
    Sorry.
[03:04] Nako
    The mermaid princess who admired
[03:07] ---
    the prince wanted to
    see the outside world.
[03:13] Nako
    The prince, seen
    from above the water,
[03:16] ---
    was very handsome…
[03:16] Nako
    If I were a mermaid princess,
[03:25] Nako
    I wouldn't admire a prince...
[03:39] Nako
    I would swim freely in the water,
[03:44] Nako
    and take a break
    whenever I got tired...
[03:48] Nako
    because land is... scary.
[03:52] Nako
    To me,
[03:55] ---
    my home is like the ocean.
[04:03] Nako
    I'm off!
[04:06] Boy
    Nako, I can't find my right shoe!
[04:09] Nako
    What?!
[04:10] Nako
    How many times do
[04:11] ---
    I have to tell you to
    put them away together?
[04:14] Nako
    Really!
[04:15] Nako
    Looking after my
    siblings is a difficult task,
[04:18] Nako
    but I'm most like myself when I do...
[04:20] Nako
    Bad boy!
[04:22] Woman
    Morning, Nako.
[04:24] Woman
    You don't have work this morning?
[04:25] Nako
    N-No...
[04:27] Nako
    Good morning…
[04:34] Boy
    Nako, my shoe!
[04:37] Nako
    My job doesn't start
    until late this afternoon...
[04:38] Boy
    My shoe! My shoe!
[04:41] ---
    Nako!
[04:41] Nako
    Yes... it's difficult to breathe above the water.
[04:42] Boy
    Shoe!
[04:44] ---
    Episode 18
    A Mermaid Princess and a Shell Bra
[04:50] Woman
    Excuse me,
[04:52] ---
    do you happen to
[04:53] ---
    know what flower is especially in
    bloom right now around here?
[04:56] Nako
    Oh… which flower?
[04:58] Man
    Yeah, I'd love to take some pictures of
[05:01] ---
    wild, dynamic flowers
    instead of just small ones.
[05:03] Nako
    D-Dynamic?
[05:05] Nako
    U-Umm…
[05:09] Man
    Oh, don't worry about it.
[05:10] Woman
    Looking for flowers in bloom
    while going on our walk
[05:13] ---
    sounds pleasant as well, right?
[05:14] Man
    Yeah, we should sleep early tonight
[05:17] ---
    in preparation for tomorrow.
[05:23] Nako
    "Buckwheat flowers grow in clumps past the lake."
[05:27] Nako
    "They should be really
    pretty this time of year."
[05:29] Nako
    "But the path is filled with steep slopes,
    so hiking boots would be..."
[05:37] Nako
    Why couldn't I just say this to them earlier?
[05:41] Nako
    As I thought, I can't swim the
    way I want above the water.
[05:45] Ohana
    What's up?
[05:48] Nako
    N-Nothing.
[05:51] Tomoe
    There you are!
[05:52] Tomoe
    You two,
    we're meeting in the office!
[05:54] Ohana
    What?
[05:55] Tomoe
    It's the payday we've
    all been waiting for!
[05:57] Ohana
    All right!
[06:01] Ohana
    I-It's gone down by 15,000 yen...
[06:05] Sui
    You broke the vase
    in the Crane Room, didn't you?
[06:07] Ohana
    I-I'm sorry,
[06:09] ---
    but a child bumped into me from behind, and-
[06:12] Sui
    If you prefer, I can deduct the
    entire cost of it from your salary.
[06:15] Sui
    That was very expensive Kutani ware.
[06:17] Sui
    It's definitely worth more than
    twenty to thirty thousand yen.
[06:20] ---
    What do you want to do?
[06:21] Ohana
    I'll gladly take this.
[06:23] Nako
    Huh?
[06:25] Ohana
    Wow!
[06:27] Nako
    This is more than I usually get...
[06:33] Tomoe
    I bet she has high expectations, Nako.
[06:38] Tomoe
    If they're praised,
[06:40] ---
    they'll work even harder to become
[06:42] ---
    someone that deserves the praise.
[06:45] Nako
    Madam Manager…
[06:47] Jiro
    What do you say to leaving me
[06:50] ---
    in charge of that money, Miss Nako?
[06:53] Jiro
    I'm in the middle of writing a
    novel about currency exchange, and-
[06:56] Tomoe
    Don't you dare ask a high
    schooler for an investment!
[07:00] Ohana
    Man…
[07:02] Ohana
    The kinako mochi-flavored tirol
    chocolates are 20 yen each,
[07:06] Ohana
    so if I had 15,000 yen,
    I'd be able to buy...
[07:10] Nako
    750.
[07:12] Ohana
    That's a lot!
[07:13] Ohana
    You can buy a lot, can't you?
[07:15] Ohana
    I'm so jealous!
[07:16] Ohana
    Can I have one?
[07:18] Nako
    But I'm not planning to buy any.
[07:25] Nako
    I think Madam Manager
    wants me to change.
[07:30] Ohana
    What?
[07:31] Nako
    I think she wants me to work hard to
[07:33] ---
    become someone who deserves
    the amount I was given.
[07:37] Ohana
    Yeah?
[07:39] Ohana
    In that case, I'd better...
[07:40] Nako
    I think you're the type
[07:42] ---
    who gets carried away
    when praised, so...
[07:47] Ohana
    "Get carried away..."
[07:49] Nako
    I-I'm so sorry!
[07:51] Nako
    I meant in a good way! A good way!
[07:55] Nako
    I started working here
    because I wanted to change.
[08:00] Ohana
    Oh yeah, you've mentioned this before.
[08:03] Nako
    I'm pretty happy with
    the way I act at home,
[08:07] Nako
    or, well, I think that's the real me.
[08:12] Nako
    But outside of my home...
[08:13] Ohana
    So the person speaking to me now
[08:16] ---
    isn't the real Nakochi?
[08:17] Nako
    What?
[08:19] Nako
    When I'm with you or Minchi...
[08:22] Nako
    I guess just a little bit...
[08:25] Ohana
    Come out, real Nakochi!
[08:26] Nako
    Stop it! Not the forehead!
[08:28] Nako
    I don't want you to see it!
[08:30] Nako
    Please! Not the forehead!
[08:35] Yuina
    Pay, huh?
[08:38] Yuina
    I'm jealous.
[08:39] Ohana
    I had 15,000 deducted,
[08:41] ---
    so a lot of my freedom money is gone.
[08:43] Ohana
    Oh, is that empty? Can I have it?
[08:47] Yuina
    Sure, but why?
[08:51] Ohana
    I'm gonna fill it up
    with water to drink!
[08:54] Nako
    Ohana…
[08:56] Yuina
    That's kinda depressing.
[08:59] Yuina
    What are you gonna
    spend yours on, Tsurugi?
[09:00] Minko
    Tilefish.
[09:01] Yuina
    What? Tilefish?
[09:06] Minko
    I've always wanted to try out
[09:08] ---
    the Matsukasayaki method of cooking.
[09:10] Minko
    There's no way they're gonna let
[09:11] ---
    me use expensive ingredients, so...
[09:14] Yuina
    I-I see...
[09:15] Yuina
    What about you, Oshimizu?
[09:18] Nako
    I don't really have any hobbies...
[09:21] Nako
    nor is there anything
    I really want to study... Yeah,
[09:24] Nako
    I guess I'll just save it.
[09:27] Yuina
    What?! That's such a waste!
[09:29] Yuina
    Money is meant to be spent!
[09:32] Nako
    But…
[09:33] Yuina
    My grandmother said that
    money "polishes" people!
[09:38] Nako
    Polishes people?
[09:41] Yuina
    I know!
[09:42] Yuina
    Let's go shopping after school!
[09:45] Ohana
    Shopping?!
[09:46] Ohana
    That's a great idea!
[09:48] Minko
    Why don't you buy
    yourself a drink if you have
[09:50] ---
    the money to go shopping?
[09:52] Ohana
    I'll pack some barley tea
    for lunch tomorrow.
[10:09] Yuina
    I like this.
[10:11] Nako
    Yuina likes clothing that shows too much skin,
[10:16] Nako
    and Minchi only looks at the 3 for 1000 yen T-shirts.
[10:17] ---
    T-Shirts on Sale
    3 for 1000 yen
[10:21] Ohana
    Wow, beige polka dots!
[10:24] ---
    So cute!
[10:25] Nako
    Ohana actually has
    pretty good taste.
[10:29] Nako
    She's from Tokyo, after all.
[10:31] Ohana
    Man, these puffed sleeves are so cute!
[10:32] Ohana
    Maybe I'll try them on!
[10:34] Minko
    You don't have the money for them.
[10:35] Ohana
    Jeez, at least let me dream!
[10:37] Nako
    I-I want to try that on too!
[10:44] Yuina
    I can't believe it's the same dress...
[10:47] Minko
    I didn't realize it was a sexy dress.
[10:51] Ohana
    I wanna be sexy too...
[10:54] Yuina
    No… No!
[10:55] Yuina
    You're wasting your body!
[11:02] Yuina
    Okay, one more time, Oshimizu!
[11:04] Yuina
    House!
[11:05] Nako
    H-House?
[11:13] Ohana
    Hey, you done yet?
[11:17] Nako
    Y-Yeah…
[11:18] Ohana
    Okay, then!
[11:26] Ohana
    Wow! You look great!
[11:28] Ohana
    You look so mature, Nakochi!
[11:31] Ohana
    I'm showing too much leg… Umm…
[11:35] Yuina
    Girls really do change after
    you give them a new outfit!
[11:38] Nako
    Change?
[11:40] ---
    Nakochi?
[11:41] Woman
    Thank you!
[11:42] Nako
    Excuse me...
[11:43] Woman
    Hello!
[11:44] Nako
    I'll buy all of this!
[11:48] Minko
    All of it?!
[11:49] Ohana
    She's so rich…
[12:00] Enishi
    Madam Manager…
[12:02] Enishi
    Financially, we're not in the
    best state at the moment.
[12:05] Enishi
    Did we really have the
    money to raise Nako's salary?
[12:08] Sui
    Are you in any position
    to talk about this?
[12:10] Enishi
    Well, no…
[12:14] ---
    Karaoke
[12:15] Nako
    These flowers cover the entire field...
[12:20] Yuina
    Oshimizu looks a little
    more fashionable now,
[12:23] ---
    but did she really have
    to pick such a lame song?
[12:26] Ohana
    What should I sing...
[12:28] Ohana
    Oh! The spirit boat progression song!
[12:32] Nako
    Where's Houzen Temple's
    Alleyway in the Moon…
[12:52] Yuina
    You still haven't decided?
[12:54] Yuina
    I always just have my siblings' leftovers,
[12:56] ---
    so I don't really know…
[12:59] Minko
    Ginger pudding is pretty unique,
[13:02] ---
    but this hamburger steak with
    10 different vegetables...
[13:04] Minko
    I wonder which vegetables they used.
[13:06] Nako
    Oh, you can order however much you like!
[13:08] Nako
    I'll just eat your leftovers.
[13:11] Minko
    What?
[13:11] Nako
    Oh, don't worry! We can
    split the bill in half.
[13:15] Ohana
    Excuse me!
[13:17] Woman
    Are you ready to order?
[13:18] Ohana
    I want the cheapest one…
[13:19] Ohana
    The house blend!
[13:21] ---
    With extra milk! Lots of it!
[13:26] Nako
    Milk?
[13:27] Ohana
    I can't drink coffee
    because it's too bitter,
[13:29] ---
    but I do like cafe au lait.
[13:31] Ohana
    But I don't have any money, so…
[13:33] Yuina
    This is just too sad!
[13:42] Ohana
    What's wrong, Nakochi?
[13:43] Nako
    I did so many things today
[13:46] ---
    that I'm not used to,
[13:49] Nako
    that it's left me tired.
[13:51] Ohana
    I'm having fun, though.
[13:53] Nako
    Ohana?
[13:54] Ohana
    See, although we work
    together all the time,
[13:57] Ohana
    it's the first time we've
    been out together like this.
[14:00] Nako
    Now that you mention it,
[14:02] ---
    you also don't seem to have any friends, right?
[14:04] Ohana
    What?
[14:06] Nako
    I don't mean it in a bad way!
[14:08] ---
    In a good way!
[14:09] Ohana
    I don't seem to have any friends in a good way?
[14:12] Nako
    No, that's not what I meant!
[14:14] Nako
    How do I put it...
[14:16] Nako
    You're always so frank and straightforward,
[14:18] ---
    I figured you'd have a lot of enemies!
[14:21] Nako
    Umm…
[14:22] Nako
    In a good way!
[14:24] Ohana
    Do you think anything can be forgiven
[14:26] ---
    by just tacking on a,
    "in a good way" at the end?
[14:28] Nako
    N-No!
[14:30] Guy
    My throat…
[14:30] Guy2
    I'm gonna die!
[14:32] Guy2
    I'm gonna die!
[14:32] Guy2
    I'm gonna die!
[14:33] Guy2
    I'm gonna die!
[14:34] Guy2
    I'm gonna die!
[14:35] Guy2
    I'm so thirsty, I'm gonna die!
[14:37] Guy2
    Water!
[14:38] Guy2
    No, how about tea instead?
[14:39] Guy2
    We'd like to have tea
    with you pretty girls!
[14:44] Minko
    Performers planning to go pro?
[14:47] Guy
    Else we're gonna die!
[14:50] Yuina
    That's so funny!
[14:52] Yuina
    Then why don't you die?
[14:54] Ohana
    Y-Yuina, that's not very nice!
[14:56] Yuina
    They're trying to pick us up.
[14:58] Ohana
    "Pick up"?
[14:59] Minko
    What does that mean?
[15:00] Yuina
    Sorry, it's a girls' night out!
[15:04] Guy
    Don't say such a thing!
[15:06] Yuina
    Like I said…
[15:07] Guy
    You're an oasis…
[15:10] Guy
    in this city desert!
[15:17] Ohana
    Nakochi's getting hit on!
[15:18] Nako
    What? What?
[15:21] Nako
    What?!
[15:26] Ohana
    Wait, Nakochi!
[15:28] Minko
    Nako!
[15:34] Guy
    Wow! What's all this?!
[15:37] Guy
    There's so much cake!
[15:39] Girl
    Hey, is it someone's birthday?
[15:41] Girl
    Is it your birthday, Nako?
[15:46] Mom
    What's with the cake
    and your outfit, Nako?
[15:50] Mom
    It's not like you, N-
[15:51] Nako
    That's right!
[15:53] Nako
    This is change,
    but it's not the right kind of change!
[15:57] Nako
    Now that I think about it,
    appearance has nothing to do with work...
[16:00] Nako
    Jeez, I wasted money!
[16:02] Nako
    But it's not like I want money…
[16:05] Nako
    I don't get it anymore!
[16:10] Mom
    N-Nako?
[16:15] Nako
    "An oasis in this city desert," huh?
[16:26] Nako
    I can't swim in a desert.
[16:30] Nako
    I want to swim freely.
[16:41] Ohana
    Princess Nakochi!
[16:43] Nako
    Why, hello, tilefish.
[16:46] Ohana
    The Queen's calling for you.
[16:56] Nako
    Th-This outfit…
[17:01] Sui
    It's an era where mermaids
    should also dress nicely.
[17:03] Nako
    B-But this is too heavy!
[17:06] Sui
    Work hard in order
[17:07] ---
    to become someone
    who suits all of that jewelry.
[17:14] Sui
    What's the matter?
[17:16] Nako
    No…
[17:17] Nako
    It's too heavy. I'm going to sink…
[17:19] Nako
    Both the ornaments and the
    expectations are too much…
[17:32] Nako
    I might not be able to change,
[17:34] Nako
    but if I could just act like my regular self...
[17:58] Tohru
    Oh, Mr. Ren.
[18:03] Renji
    It's almost autumn, after all.
[18:05] Renji
    I decided to spend a
    huge amount of money.
[18:09] Renji
    It cost 150,000 yen.
[18:13] Tohru
    Umm…
[18:14] Tohru
    It looks very cool.
[18:17] Nako
    Good morning!
[18:19] Renji
    Hey! Morning.
[18:21] Nako
    You can't dress up all
    funny like that at work, Mr. Ren.
[18:27] Renji
    "D-Dress up all funny"?
[18:32] Tohru
    Mr. Ren!
[18:33] Nako
    Well then, if you'll excuse me!
[18:36] Nako
    Good morning!
[18:38] Bean
    What?
[18:40] Bean
    Oh, good morn-
[18:44] Nako
    Okay, I'm doing well!
[18:47] Nako
    I'll just act like my regular self.
[18:50] ---
    The way I normally act towards my siblings!
[18:51] Guy
    Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
[18:54] Guy
    That's right… Good! Good!
[18:57] Guy
    Fight! Fight!
[18:57] Nako
    Sir, do you mind if I take your luggage to your room?
[18:58] Guy
    That's the spirit… That's the spirit…
[19:00] Guy
    Go! Go!
[19:01] Guy
    Come! Come!
[19:03] Guy
    Good! Take it slow… Good!
[19:05] Guy
    That's right… Fight! Fight!
[19:08] ---
    *Just as normal... just as normal... *
[19:10] Guy
    Yes… Yes…
[19:10] Nako
    Then, I'll take these to your room.
[19:11] Guy
    There's no need to rush.
[19:15] Guy
    Don't touch that!
[19:17] Guy
    I was filming the flowers blooming!
[19:22] Guy
    Jeez, now I have to start
    from the beginning!
[19:26] Nako
    I'm so sorry!
[19:29] Sui
    Well, he forgave you.
[19:32] ---
    Just don't do it again
    in the future, understand?
[19:34] Nako
    Y-Yes, Ma'am.
[19:39] Sui
    What's wrong? Get back to work.
[19:42] Nako
    U-Umm…
[19:44] Nako
    I… Well…
[19:46] Nako
    About my salary…
[19:49] Nako
    I-I'm not a waitress
    that deserves a raise.
[19:55] Nako
    I just made a huge mistake.
[19:59] Nako
    I bet you're expecting me to improve
[20:02] ---
    because I'm bad at my job, but...
[20:06] Nako
    I'm a poor talker and it takes me
[20:08] ---
    a while to get the hang of things,
[20:10] Nako
    and I'm bad at interacting
    with customers.
[20:14] Nako
    I…
[20:15] Sui
    Let me tell you one thing:
    this isn't a school.
[20:19] Nako
    What?
[20:20] Sui
    I wasn't thinking of improving your will
[20:23] ---
    when I gave you a raise.
[20:26] Nako
    What? B-But…
[20:28] Sui
    Read this.
[20:30] ---
    To: Kissuiso's Madam Manager
[20:33] Sui
    The customer from yesterday
[20:35] ---
    went home while you were at school.
[20:40] Guy
    The flower field atop the mountain was just beautiful.
[20:45] Guy
    We were right to listen to the
[20:48] ---
    waitress's advice to purchase hiking boots.
[20:52] Guy
    We'll definitely come back
    to see that waitress again.
[20:57] Sui
    There are customers
    who like the work you do,
[21:01] Sui
    and that's why I gave you a raise.
[21:04] Sui
    Is there anything wrong with that?
[21:05] Nako
    The work I do?
[21:08] Nako
    But the real me is a lot
    more cheerful, louder, and…
[21:15] Sui
    When you're at Kissuiso,
[21:17] ---
    you're quiet and nervous,
[21:20] Sui
    but you notice things
    that no one else would notice,
[21:23] ---
    and you give a welcoming service.
[21:26] Sui
    That's the kind of waitress you are.
[21:36] Ohana
    Minchi.
[21:38] Ohana
    The customers in the
[21:39] ---
    Crane Room can't eat
    wild blue-skinned fish.
[21:41] Minko
    Got it.
[21:43] Ohana
    Oh, Nakochi.
[21:55] Ohana
    Swimming freestyle in the air?
[21:56] Minko
    That was weird.
[21:59] Ohana
    Almost as weird as kinako
    mochi-flavored snacks, huh?
[22:08] Nako
    This isn't the ocean,
[22:10] Nako
    but…
[22:14] Nako
    Even though I was pretty mean to the prince,
[22:18] ---
    I'm still going to aim for the land!
[22:22] Nako
    I feel like I can swim anywhere now!
[23:40] Tomoe
    Cultural festival, huh?
[23:42] Yuina
    Let's fest it up together!
[23:43] Minko
    Yeah, let's make it a
    great cultural festival.
[23:45] Nako
    I don't mind working my shift…

    We're young and restless!
