[00:12] Jinguuji
    S-Sorry.
[00:14] Tachibana
    No... I'm the one who should apologize.
[00:17] Jinguuji
    Don't be fooled by appearances.
[00:19] Jinguuji
    Inside, that's an old guy
    who's over thirty.
[00:21] Jinguuji
    If we just interact normally, it'll be fine.
[00:23] Tachibana
    Stay calm. Just stay calm.
[00:26] Tachibana
    My body may have become female,
    but I'm a man who's into women.
[00:29] Jinguuji
    I do not ever want to be in a
    romantic relationship with this guy!
[00:34] Tachibana
    I could never fall in love with a guy!
[00:37] narrator
    This story is...
[00:38] narrator
    Well, you may have already
    guessed from their reactions.
[00:42] narrator
    It's a romantic comedy between an old guy
    and someone who used to be an old guy.

[02:19] Tachibana
    There's so many cute girls,
    it's got me nervous.
[02:22] Tachibana
    Flight attendants really
    are on a different level!
[02:24] Jinguuji
    Are they?
[02:26] Tachibana
    Huh?
[02:27] Jinguuji
    I don't find them interesting at all.
[02:29] Jinguuji
    I'm more interested in the
    fish tank. Did you see it?
[02:31] Jinguuji
    Fish are wonderful. I get really excited.
[02:34] Tachibana
    Why did you come to this mixer anyway?
[02:36] Jinguuji
    Caring even a little about your
    appearance makes you attractive.
[02:39] Tachibana
    Ugh...
[02:40] Jinguuji
    Get to know the women first, so that
    you're not deceived by a stranger.
[02:43] Tachibana
    Are you my mom or something?
[02:45] narrator
    These two childhood friends have known
     each other since elementary school,
[02:49] narrator
    but they are not alike at all.

    Jinguuji Tsukasa.

[03:08] narrator
    He's never been particularly
    interested in women...
[03:12] narrator
    But as their dark sides have stood
    out to him more than anything else,
[03:15] narrator
    he's developed a complete distrust of women.
[03:17] narrator
    And that is why...
[03:19] Jinguuji
    I will only allow you to date
    a woman I've approved of.
[03:24] Jinguuji
    Though I doubt that such a woman exists.
[03:26] narrator
    That's the excuse he gives, but...
[03:29] Jinguuji
    I really do feel more comfortable around men.
[03:31] Jinguuji
    The oasis of my heart is, and
    will always be, you alone.
[03:34] narrator
    He really just doesn't want a woman
    to take his best friend from him.
[03:38] Tachibana
    If you don't see a girl you like,
    I wish you'd at least not get in my way.
[03:42] Jinguuji
    Then why do you always invite me?
[03:46] Jinguuji
    It's because you know
    this will happen, right?
[03:48] Tachibana
    I-I get nervous coming to these mixers alone.
[03:51] Jinguuji
    You feel lonesome so easily.
[03:53] Jinguuji
    Why don't you have a little
    more confidence in yourself?
[03:55] Tachibana
    Confidence, huh?
[03:57] Tachibana
    That's impossible with you around!

[04:04] narrator
    Neither good nor bad at anything.
[04:06] narrator
    This man walks a finely balanced line.
[04:08] Tachibana; background
    Oh! Um, excuse me!
[04:09] narrator
    Every woman he has ever fallen
    for has been taken by Jinguuji.
[04:15] Tachibana
    I never imagined it would continue
    even after we left school!
[04:19] Tachibana
    As long as I'm with him,
    I'll never get a girlfriend! Ever!
[04:23] narrator
    The reason he brought Jinguuji to mixers was
    to get him married off as quickly as possible.
[04:29] Tachibana
    But why does this guy have
    so little interest in women?
[04:32] Tachibana
    We're already 32, you know?
[04:34] Tachibana
    Could it be that he's in love with me?
[04:37] narrator
    This situation appears very complicated.
[04:43] Tachibana
    I want to be a woman.
[04:44] Tachibana
    If I'm always going to feel this small and
    miserable, I'd rather just become a woman.
[04:48] Tachibana
    I want to be a girl so beautiful
    that I couldn't possibly exist
[04:51] ---
    in this world, and have everyone fawn over me.
[04:54] Jinguuji
    You drank too much, idiot.
[04:55] Tachibana
    If possible, I'd want to look childlike,
    but still be sharp.
[04:59] Tachibana
    A short loli-type with soft blonde hair...
    That would be great!
[05:01] Jinguuji
    Saying things like that is why
    you can't get a woman.
[05:03] Tachibana
    Oh, shut up! Even I would do fine if
    I didn't have someone like you close by!
[05:08] Jinguuji
    I'm tired of hearing that.
[05:10] Tachibana
    Out of curiosity...
[05:11] Tachibana
    What kind of girl would you like?
[05:13] Jinguuji
    I've never given it any thought.
[05:15] Jinguuji
    Right now, all I'm thinking about
    is seeing you back to your place.
[05:19] Tachibana
    Why? Why is it always you, Jinguuji?
[05:22] Tachibana
    You're really despicable, you know that?
[05:25] Tachibana
    You're popular and cool. It's no fair...
[05:28] Tachibana
    Blast it. You moron...
[05:32] Jinguuji
    And the only one who'd spend time with
    someone as despicable as me is you.
[05:38] Jinguuji
    Come on, wake up!
[05:40] goddess
    Say... Is it dead?
[05:44] Jinguuji
    Wha—?!
[05:45] Jinguuji
    A bizarre, half-naked, LED woman!
[05:47] goddess
    It's a halo! A halo!
[05:49] goddess
    You're a very rude human!
[05:53] goddess
    Alive then, is he?
[05:55] goddess
    Step aside, Four-Eyes.
[05:58] goddess
    If he lives, then I merely need to kill him.
[06:02] Jinguuji
    Tachibana!
[06:06] Jinguuji
    Tachibana!
[06:08] Jinguuji
    Where are you, Tachibana?
[06:11] Jinguuji
    You're safe. I'm so glad.
[06:13] Jinguuji
    Huh? Safe?
[06:15] Jinguuji
    Safe from what? I can't remember.
[06:19] Jinguuji
    Hey, wake up, Tachiba—
[06:22] Jinguuji
    What?!
[06:23] Jinguuji
    Your body's melted!
[06:25] Jinguuji
    What is this? It's disgusting!
[06:28] Tachibana
    Oh, keep it down. You're making my head ring.
[06:32] Tachibana
    Is this a hangover?
[06:33] Tachibana
    My head hurts and I feel
    like my throat is weird...
[06:37] Tachibana
    Where are we anyway, Jinguuji?
[06:40] Jinguuji
    Wh— Wh—
[06:41] Tachibana
    Huh?
[06:42] Jinguuji
    Who are you, you snake?!
[06:45] Tachibana
    Huh?
[06:45] Jinguuji
    What have you done with Tachibana?!
[06:47] Tachibana
    What? Did you hit your head or something?
[06:49] Tachibana
    Forgetting your best friend's
    face is pretty harsh.
[06:52] Jinguuji
    I only have one best friend!
     And it isn't you!
[06:56] Tachibana
    Huh? Whoa! She's cute!
[06:58] Tachibana
    Who is that?
[06:59] Jinguuji
    You.
[07:02] Tachibana
    What?!
[07:03] Tachibana
    What is this? What's going on?
[07:04] Tachibana
    I've got stuff I shouldn't up top!
[07:06] Tachibana
    And I'm missing stuff
    I should have down below!
[07:08] Tachibana
    Why am I in the body of the
    perfect woman I dreamed up?!
[07:15] Tachibana
    Why are you barfing?!
[07:17] Jinguuji
    It's like Tachibana turned into a girl
    and is talking to me. It's sickening.
[07:20] Tachibana
    I have become a girl and I am talking to you!
[07:24] goddess
    Do you like it?
[07:25] goddess
    How is it? What do you think of becoming
    the embodiment of your desires?
[07:29] Tachibana
    What's this? An exhibitionist
    woman has suddenly appeared.
[07:32] goddess
    Both of you are really rude!
[07:35] Jinguuji
    Desires embodied?
[07:37] Jinguuji
    What do you mean?
[07:38] goddess
    When I summoned you here,
    I granted you your wish.
[07:43] goddess
    Welcome to another world, O brave heroes!
[07:46] goddess
    This world is on the brink of danger, and
    the only ones who can save it are heroes!
[07:51] goddess
    When you have magnificently
    defeated the Demon Lord,
[07:54] goddess
    I shall grant you any wish you like!
[07:58] Tachibana
    Did you hear that, Jinguuji?
    Apparently, we're heroes!
[08:01] Jinguuji
    Do not be fooled, Tachibana-like woman.
[08:03] Jinguuji
    This is bound to be some kind of scam.
[08:05] Tachibana
    You say some really crazy things.
[08:07] Jinguuji
    I get a very unpleasant feel from this woman.
[08:10] Jinguuji
    We shouldn't get involved with her.
[08:12] goddess
    His memories should have been erased.
[08:14] goddess
    His sharp intuition is a problem.
[08:16] Jinguuji
    And most importantly...
[08:18] Jinguuji
    turning you into a woman
    was probably her doing.
[08:21] Jinguuji
    She stole my oasis from me!
[08:25] Jinguuji
    Humans die without water!
[08:28] ---
    How am I supposed to live now?!
[08:31] Tachibana
    You're upset enough to cry?
[08:32] Jinguuji
    So until you turn Tachibana back,
    I will not listen to you!
[08:36] Jinguuji
    Understand?
[08:39] goddess
    You dare to give me orders?
[08:41] goddess
    That stance shows no sign of cooperating...
[08:43] goddess
    Calling me an LED display, a con artist...
[08:45] goddess
    Quit pushing your luck, Four-Eyes...
[08:47] goddess
    I am a goddess of love and beauty!
[08:50] goddess
    You lower life-forms need
    to learn your place.
[08:53] goddess
    Fine. You're only here to
    make up the numbers anyway.
[08:55] goddess
    I'll go ahead and make use
    of you for some amusement.
[08:59] goddess
    Rejoice!
[09:00] goddess
    For good or ill, I cast this curse which
    shall make you want to save this world!
[09:08] goddess
    Breaking the curse, returning
    everything to normal...
[09:11] goddess
    All of it is possible if
    you defeat Demon Lord!
[09:13] goddess
    So go ahead and try your best!
[09:15] goddess
    Bye-bye!
[09:19] Tachibana
    What was all that?
[09:21] Jinguuji
    Let's be logical for a moment.
[09:23] Jinguuji
    I've been trying to make sense of the
    situation we've found ourselves in...
[09:26] Tachibana
    Yeah. It's been so chaotic, I've got no idea.
[09:30] Tachibana
    And I'm starting to get hungry.
[09:32] Tachibana
    What are we supposed to
    do about food and water?
[09:35] Tachibana
    Jinguuji?
[09:37] Jinguuji
    Y-You're cute...
[09:40] Tachibana
    What?
[09:40] Jinguuji
    What?
[09:41] Jinguuji
    What am I saying?
[09:44] Tachibana
    Were you just staring at me in fascination?
[09:46] Tachibana
    I am ridiculously cute right now...
[09:49] Tachibana
    But we need to think seriously right now.
[09:52] Tachibana
    Depending on what we do,
    we might have to camp—
[09:54] Jinguuji
    S-Sorry.
[09:55] Jinguuji
    I don't know what's going on myself.
[09:57] Jinguuji
    It's just that this strange
    feeling welled up inside me,
[10:00] Jinguuji
    and I couldn't withstand it...
[10:06] Jinguuji
    Blast it. My heart rate is
    strangely fast. What is this?
[10:10] Tachibana
    He's so cool... Jinguuji seems so cool!
[10:13] Tachibana
    Those piercing eyes and
    that always perfect hair!
[10:16] Tachibana
    His build is slender, but strong!
[10:19] Tachibana
    And now that I'm this short, I understand
    how reliable 180 cm can seem!
[10:22] Tachibana
    Even as another man,
    I've thought he was cool, but...
[10:25] Jinguuji
    Those features which retain
    a hint of childlike youth!
[10:27] Jinguuji
    Those dignified, intelligent blue eyes!
[10:29] Jinguuji
    That translucent skin and
    glorious blonde hair!
[10:32] Jinguuji
    I've never felt this sense of
    impatience before. What is it?
[10:35] Jinguuji
    Why is it that I can't look away?
[10:39] Jinguuji; Tachibana
    What is this?!
[10:41] (Flashback) goddess
    For good or ill, I cast this curse which
    shall make you want to save this world!
[10:47] Jinguuji; Tachibana
    Th-The curse!
[10:49] Tachibana
    That blasted goddess!
[10:50] Tachibana
    She wasn't satisfied with
    turning me into a woman.
[10:52] Tachibana
    She cast the worst, nastiest curse
    she could as a goddess of love!
[10:55] Jinguuji
    Which means that I must withstand this
[10:58] Jinguuji
    to protect our friendship!
[11:01] Tachibana
    This is bad! Insanely bad!
[11:03] Jinguuji
    We must break this curse
    as quickly as possible!
[11:06] narrator
    In this moment, their two hearts were as one.
[11:11] Tachibana
    Let's do this, Jinguuji.
[11:13] Jinguuji
    Yes. We shall defeat this Demon Lord.
[11:17] Jinguuji; Tachibana
    Before I fall in love with this guy!
[11:21] narrator
    This tale is a romantic comedy between an
    old guy and someone who used to be an old guy.

SIGN    Argh
[11:33] Tachibana
    I hate this.
[11:34] Tachibana
    I'm tired! I hate this! My feet hurt!
[11:37] Jinguuji
    We haven't been hiking for even an hour.
[11:39] Jinguuji
    Come on, try a little harder.
[11:40] Jinguuji
    You're going to defeat the Demon Lord, right?
[11:42] Tachibana
    I don't feel like I can...
[11:44] Jinguuji
    That part of your personality is
    the reason you're not popular.
[11:47] Tachibana
    Look at these skinny legs!
[11:49] Tachibana
    This body is way too weak physically!
[11:51] Tachibana
    And these shoes don't fit!
    They're way too big!
[11:54] Jinguuji
    Don't go thoughtlessly showing
    your legs. It's indecent.
[11:57] Tachibana
    Hey, don't you think it'd be better
    to go down the mountain than up?
[12:01] Jinguuji
    No.
[12:02] Jinguuji
    Climbing to the top while we can and
    checking our surroundings is the soundest choice.
[12:06] Jinguuji
    Besides...
[12:07] Jinguuji
    The fact that this isn't our world
    has started to set in, right?
[12:11] Tachibana
    What is that stupidly huge thing anyway?
[12:14] Jinguuji
    The plants are all things
    we've never seen before, too.
[12:17] Jinguuji
    And it's much too quiet for a mountain.
[12:19] Jinguuji
    Though there aren't any insects,
    there are flowers blooming. It's unsettling.
[12:22] Tachibana
    You really noticed a lot.
[12:24] Tachibana
    Then, do you think it'd be
    bad to drink the river water?
[12:28] Jinguuji
    Let's hold off until our
    situation becomes critical.
[12:31] Tachibana
    This being in another world
    thing is kinda scary.
[12:33] Tachibana
    I'm glad I'm with you.
[12:36] Jinguuji
    Right? Right?
[12:38] Tachibana
    Still, just leaving us like this
    when we don't know anything...
[12:41] Tachibana
    How savage is that goddess?
[12:43] Jinguuji
    Well, I bear responsibility in this, too.
[12:45] Jinguuji
    There is something about this world
    which I simply cannot forgive.
[12:48] Tachibana
    Is that so?
[12:50] Jinguuji
    The fact that you've become a woman.
[12:52] Tachibana
    Your dislike is way too focused!
[12:53] Tachibana
    You already knew that
    "unforgivable" thing before!
[12:55] Jinguuji
    Yes, I did.
[12:57] Tachibana
    Man...I want a bath.
[13:00] Tachibana
    Don't you usually start in a
    village for this kind of thing?
[13:03] Tachibana
    And she left us with this weird curse...
[13:08] Jinguuji
    Is something wrong?
[13:09] Tachibana
    No! Nothing!
[13:11] Tachibana
    Crap! This curse is really a problem!
[13:15] Tachibana
    Jinguuji's the same as usual.
[13:17] Tachibana
    It's like it's only me feeling weirdly
    conscious of him. It's so frustrating.
[13:21] Tachibana
    Hang on.
[13:22] Tachibana
    She did say she was using a curse,
    but she didn't say what the curse was.
[13:29] Tachibana
    Is it possible that I'm attracted
    to him regardless of the curse?
[13:34] Tachibana
    Huh? What? That's bad, right?
[13:36] Tachibana
    Say, doesn't it seem like we've been
    cursed to fall in love with each other?
[13:40] Jinguuji
    What?
[13:41] Tachibana
    If I asked that, it's basically
    the same as if I said I love him.
[13:43] Tachibana
    And if the curse isn't what
    I think it is, then...
[13:46] Tachibana
    The steadfast 25 years he
    and I have spent together...
[13:50] Tachibana
    No! That is the one thing
    that must not ever happen!
[13:53] Tachibana
    And the fact that he seems like
    he might accept it is terrifying!
[13:56] Jinguuji
    Well, sometimes things like this happen.
[13:58] Tachibana
    And the fact that right now I might
    see that as good is also terrifying!
[14:03] Tachibana
    This situation only holds terror!
[14:05] Tachibana
    First, I have to determine whether
    Jinguuji feels attracted to me or not.
[14:10] Tachibana
    Hey, Jinguuji...
[14:13] Tachibana
    You said I was cute earlier, right?
[14:19] Tachibana
    So this is the kind of
    thing you're into, huh?
[14:21] Tachibana
    No wonder you weren't interested
    in any of the women around us.
[14:23] Tachibana
    I mean, there weren't any beautiful
    blonde girls like this around, right?
[14:26] Jinguuji
    I was wondering what you were going to say.
[14:28] Jinguuji
    Do you really think I'd ever
    praise a woman's appearance?
[14:33] Jinguuji
    We've been together 25 years,
     and it's never happened once, has it?
[14:36] Jinguuji
    You are as bird-brained and
    uncomprehending as ever.
[14:38] Tachibana
    H-Huh? Didn't you say something
    like that? How weird...
[14:43] Tachibana
    Crap! I'm not confident I can
    trust my memory. Is it my age?
[14:47] Jinguuji
    Honestly. At a time like this...
[14:49] Jinguuji
    But I do like that part of you.
[14:53] Jinguuji
    Are you asking if you're cute?
[14:55] Jinguuji
    If that is what this throbbing
    in my chest says, then...
[14:57] Jinguuji
    I must think you're cute!
[14:58] Jinguuji
    In this state you're in, Tachibana!
[15:01] Jinguuji
    Blast it! I feel like I'll go crazy
    if I look directly at her face!
[15:04] Jinguuji
    But...
[15:06] Jinguuji
    I have my pride.
[15:08] Jinguuji
    Just you watch, Tachibana.
[15:10] Jinguuji
    No matter how cute you are,
    I will never fall in love with you!
[15:14] Jinguuji
    Not even if that is the type
    of curse which has been cast!
[15:17] Jinguuji
    Not even though you've turned into a woman!
[15:19] Jinguuji
    I will prove to that blasted goddess
    that our friendship is immutable!
SIGN    Ya-y!
[15:23] Jinguuji
    I will return you to being a man with
    our relationship just as it was!
[15:29] Tachibana
    This guy's expressions don't change
    much, so I can't really tell.
[15:33] Tachibana
    But without evidence, I can't do much more...
[15:36] Tachibana
    Then shouldn't I just get
    him to call me cute again?
[15:41] Tachibana
    Oh, dear!
[15:43] Tachibana
    Oh, no! I've fallen down!
[15:45] Jinguuji
    Are you all right, Tachibana?
[15:47] Tachibana
    Sorry, Jinguuji.
[15:49] Tachibana
    I don't think I can walk anymore...
[15:54] Tachibana
    How's that? If I were a guy, I'd find
    this feminine gesture adorable...
[15:57] Tachibana
    the upward glance!
[15:59] Tachibana
    The only problem with it would be
    that I, at 32, am the one doing it.
[16:03] Tachibana
    This is rough! To be honest,
    it's really rough!
SIGN    Ka Pow
[16:06] Tachibana
    But!
[16:07] Tachibana
    The shock of seeing this cute move
    when I'm already so cute
[16:10] Tachibana
    should overwhelm a cerebral, four-eyed virgin!
[16:14] Jinguuji
    I see.
[16:15] Jinguuji
    Then...
[16:17] Jinguuji
    I'll lend you a hand.
[16:20] Jinguuji
    You're probably lighter than you were.
[16:22] ---
    Shall I carry you in a princess hold?
[16:24] Tachibana
    H-He countered it?
[16:26] Jinguuji
    That was close!
[16:27] Jinguuji
    The overwhelming cuteness made me
    nearly black out for a second!
[16:31] Jinguuji
    But, though it was spur of the moment,
    my reaction was good.
[16:33] Jinguuji
    After rationally determining the
    advantages of the gender change,
[16:36] Jinguuji
    I've thrown in some jokes to emphasize
    the fact that I'm not bothered.
[16:40] Tachibana
    Crap. I never thought he'd
    manage to evade like this!
[16:43] Tachibana
    But I've put myself through something
    really embarrassing here...
[16:46] Tachibana
    I can't retreat now!
[16:49] Jinguuji
    Huh? No. Wait, wait, wait!
[16:51] Jinguuji
    Are Tachibana and I about to come into
    close contact? Pressed together?!
[16:55] Jinguuji
    Close contact... Piggyback would mean
    her chest pressed against my back!
[16:58] Jinguuji
    A princess hold would mean our
    faces would be close together!
[17:01] Tachibana
    Fine, I'll take your challenge, Jinguuji.
[17:03] Tachibana
    Now I've come this far, pressing my chest
    against you or whatever is all the same to me!
[17:15] Tachibana
    Huh?
[17:20] Tachibana
    What's with that thing?
[17:21] Tachibana
    It's a wild...
[17:22] Tachibana
    A wild... what?
[17:23] Tachibana
    Is it some kind of monster?
[17:25] Tachibana
    It's kind of cute.
[17:28] Tachibana
    It's creepy! I take it back!
[17:36] Tachibana
    What was that?
[17:38] Tachibana
    Jinguuji, dodge!
[17:41] Tachibana
    Are you okay? Did it graze you?
[17:44] Jinguuji
    You're holding on too tight.
    Can you give me a little more slack?
[17:47] Tachibana
    Is this really the time?!
[17:48] Tachibana
    I know it's gross, but
    just bear with it for now!
[17:51] Jinguuji
    No, well... Yes.
[17:54] Jinguuji
    It will be harder to run
    if you loosen your grip.
[17:56] Jinguuji
    So hold on tight.
[17:57] Tachibana
    R-Right...
[17:59] Tachibana
    I'm sorry. If you were alone, you'd
    have been able to get away easily.
[18:03] Jinguuji
    It's not a problem.
[18:04] Jinguuji
    I feel as though I've got wings.
[18:06] Tachibana
    That was a little creepy, you know...
[18:08] Jinguuji
    C-Creepy?
[18:10] Tachibana
    I m-mean, as long as I'm not heavy,
    I guess it doesn't matter.
[18:13] Jinguuji
    Well... More than your weight,
    for me it's, how shall I put it...
[18:17] Jinguuji
    You're so soft!
[18:19] Jinguuji
    And your face is so close!
[18:21] Jinguuji
    No! This is no time to be
    noticing things like that!
[18:24] Jinguuji
    I need to focus!
[18:25] Jinguuji
    But...
[18:26] Jinguuji
    Whether I'm conscious of it or not,
    this softness is attacking my reason...
[18:29] Jinguuji
    She's so warm! She smells so nice!
[18:33] Jinguuji
    Oh, no!
[18:38] Tachibana
    Jinguuji!
[18:42] Tachibana
    I-I-I-It's coming! It's coming for real!
[18:45] Tachibana
    Please get up, Jinguuji!
    If we don't hurry up and run away...
[18:48] Jinguuji
    Run? Me?
[18:50] Tachibana
    Jinguuji...
[18:51] Jinguuji
    That's right.
[18:52] Jinguuji
    Why am I running in the first place?
[18:55] Jinguuji
    I have never turned my
    back on an enemy and run.
[18:57] Jinguuji
    I am undefeated, unbeaten.
    I have always found a way.
[19:01] Jinguuji
    Is there any need for me to run?
[19:04] Jinguuji
    Right. I'll do this. I'll do it.
    I'll do it! I will do this!
[19:08] Tachibana
    Hey! You idiot! Stop!
[19:09] Tachibana
    That thing's too dangerous, even for you!
[19:11] Jinguuji
    It's all right.
[19:13] Jinguuji
    I'll find a way.
SIGN    Pitter Pat
[19:16] Tachibana
    Don't give me "pitter pat"!
[19:18] Tachibana
    This is seriously dangerous!
[19:19] Tachibana
    That thing shoots beams!
[19:21] ---
    It's a wild exploding-type animal!
[19:24] Tachibana
    Come back here! You'll die!
[19:27] Tachibana
    Jinguuji!
[19:29] Jinguuji
    Take that.
SIGN    Aaaaah
[19:38] Tachibana
    Is it... dead?
[19:39] Jinguuji
    Probably.
[19:42] Jinguuji
    Going to the gym has paid off!
[19:45] Tachibana
    That was beyond what you can
    do by training at the gym.
[19:49] Tachibana
    It's probably that thing...
[19:50] Tachibana
    The thing that happens in reincarnation
    stuff where physical abilities get boosted.
[19:55] Jinguuji
    But I do weight training every morning.
[19:58] Tachibana
    You think that's how you killed
     that with one punch?
[20:00] Tachibana
    The fact that you're 32 and not out of
    breath after moving that much is weird!
[20:04] Jinguuji
    Don't lump me together with yourself.
[20:06] Jinguuji
    Honestly.
[20:08] Jinguuji
    Dodge!
[20:10] Tachibana
    Huh?
[20:18] Tachibana
    I thought I was gonna die...
[20:20] Tachibana
    Jinguuji, are you okay?
[20:22] Tachibana
    Are you hurt anywhere?
[20:24] Jinguuji
    I don't feel any pain in particular.
[20:26] Jinguuji
    But there is definitely something to this.
[20:30] Tachibana
    What are those numbers for?
[20:32] Tachibana
    Experience points?
[20:33] Jinguuji
    Something has popped up.

SIGN    Tachibana
SIGN    Hero
    
    Gender: Female .

[20:39] Jinguuji
    It must be because of my training!
[20:40] Tachibana
    Is it really thanks to that?
[20:41] Jinguuji
    What is this "Skills" thing?
[20:43] Tachibana
    The way this is going...

[20:52] Jinguuji
    Isn't it wonderful?
    Your wishes have come true.
[20:55] Tachibana
    I never said I wanted to be a woman.
[20:59] Jinguuji
    Yes, you did.
[21:00] Tachibana
    Huh?
[21:00] Jinguuji
    After the mixer. When you were dead drunk.
[21:03] (Flashback) Tachibana
    I want to be a girl so beautiful
    that I couldn't possibly exist
[21:06] (Flashback) ---
    in this world, and have everyone fawn over me.
[21:08] Tachibana
    Who grants wishes from when a person's
    so drunk they don't even remember it?
[21:12] Tachibana
    How careless can you be?
[21:14] Tachibana
    Which means...
[21:15] Tachibana
    Could turning me into a woman have
    been a sign of that goddess' favor?
[21:20] Jinguuji
    It probably was a kindness.
[21:21] Tachibana
    Didn't we complain and talk
    really harshly to her?
[21:25] Jinguuji
    Yes, we did.
[21:26] Tachibana
    Next time we see her,
    we should apologize together.
[21:29] Jinguuji
    I refuse.
[21:29] Tachibana
    We will apologize!
[21:30] Jinguuji
    Well, if you insist, Tachibana.
[21:33] Jinguuji
    But why is it only you who
    was given your ideal form?
[21:36] Jinguuji
    Did I get nothing?
[21:38] Tachibana
    Do you have an ideal appearance?
[21:40] Jinguuji
    Me, as I am now.
[21:41] Tachibana
    I see.
[21:43] Tachibana
    Then maybe you have skills
    or something instead?
[21:47] Tachibana
    You do! That's a suspicious looking one!

[21:53] Jinguuji
    To activate it...

    Does being 32 make us old guys?
[23:39] Jinguuji
    If we're not old guys, what are we?
[23:41] Tachibana
    Well, that's true, but...

    much how others and society categorize you.

    Your reality is something you as a member of society—
[23:47] Tachibana
    I get it! Sorry.
[23:49] Tachibana
    I'm good...
