[00:17] Kaede
    Good morning.

    Chifusa-sama!
[00:22] Kaede
    Chifusa-sama!
[00:23] Kaede
    Chifusa-sama...
[00:31] Kaede
    Chifusa-sama?
[00:32] Chifusa
    Am I dreaming?
[00:35] Kaede
    It's not a dream.
[00:37] Kaede
    Touch them for yourself!
[00:39] Chifusa
    O-Okay!
[00:46] Kaede
    Well?
[00:48] Chifusa
    They're breasts.
[00:50] Kaede
    They're breasts.
[00:52] Chifusa
    Can I touch them a little more?
[00:54] Kaede
    Chifusa-sama, you pervert.
[00:57] Chifusa
    It's not like that...
[01:00] Kaede
    If you fondle them that strongly...
[01:05] Chifusa
    They're breasts...
[01:15] Chifusa
    What's this?
SIGN    K-01 Air Bust 100
    Just 10 ryo, 3 bu!
    
    Ah... This weight
    feels so real!
[01:18] Chifusa
    "Ah... This weight feels so real!"
[01:22] Chifusa
    Fake breasts, "Air Bust... 100"?
[01:25] Chifusa
    And it costs 10 ryo and 3 bu?
[01:27] Chifusa
    Kaede...!
[01:30] Kaede
    I really wanted breasts... sob.
[01:31] Chifusa
    Grr!

[03:58] Kaede
    Aww, and they were expensive, too.
[04:01] Chifusa
    We can't make it over the mountains
    hauling those fake boobs.
[04:05] Chifusa
    You and my sister both...
[04:07] Chifusa
    Is it that important to have giant jugs?
[04:09] Kaede
    Of course it is!
[04:11] Kaede
    I mean, I know you're trying to create a world
    where breast size doesn't matter, but...
[04:19] Chifusa
    Want some dumplings?
[04:26] Kaede
    No!
[04:35] Kaede
    You know, I used to be bigger than you.
[04:43] (Flashback) Kaede
    They're so small.
[04:45] (Flashback) Chifusa
    That's not true.
[04:46] (Flashback) Chifusa
    Nyooo!
[04:49] (Flashback) Chifusa
    Dang it!
[04:51] (Flashback) Kaede
    Kaede wins!
[04:57] (Flashback) Chifusa
    Stop poking the tips!
[05:03] Kaede
    We used to compare who was bigger all the time.
[05:07] Kaede
    And each time we'd either
    get excited or really depressed.
[05:10] Chifusa
    Some of us still get depressed.
[05:13] Kaede
    You don't have enough kindness
    in your heart toward tiny tits.
[05:16] Chifusa
    Tiny tits?
[05:17] Kaede
    Mine, specifically!
[05:19] Kaede
    The old guy at the tea house was no different.
[05:20] Kaede
    The way he treated you compared to me
    was night and day!
[05:24] Kaede
    He even gave you free dumplings!
[05:26] Kaede
    That's discrimination!
[05:28] Chifusa
    In the end, you were the one who ate them!
[05:31] Kaede
    That's not the issue!
[05:34] Kaede
    Chifusa-sama, you're no better than he is!
[05:37] Kaede
    You sure didn't look upset about it!
[05:39] Kaede
    I'm disappointed in you!
[05:57] Kaede
    Oww! What just happened?
[05:59] Itamune
    I'm so sorry.
[06:04] Itamune
    Are you hurt?
[06:09] Kaede
    Not at all! But are you all right?
[06:12] Itamune
    I'm fine.
[06:13] Itamune
    Have you seen my glasses, though?
[06:14] Itamune
    Glasses, glasses...
[06:16] Spy
    Is this what you're looking for?
[06:18] Itamune
    Yes, thank y—
[06:22] Spies
    You sure made us run around looking for you.
[06:24] Spies
    You may be a wimp, but you're fast.
[06:27] Kaede
    Um...
[06:28] Itamune
    I was suddenly attacked
    while I was traveling.
[06:30] Spies
    You've got bad luck.
[06:32] Spies
    I don't like killing if I don't have to,
[06:35] Spies
    but now you're going to die with him!
[06:42] Chifusa
    That's right.
[06:44] Chifusa
    I do have bad luck, if I'm getting
    caught up in this nonsense.
[06:48] Spies
    You're...
[06:50] Spies
    I didn't think we'd find
    prey like this out here.
[06:55] Spies
    Maybe luck is on my side—
[07:02] Spies
    B-B-Boss!
[07:04] Spies
    Damn you!
[07:05] Spies
    Wait!
[07:09] Chifusa
    Sheesh.
[07:13] Chifusa
    Manyu spies?
[07:16] Kaede
    But they were so weak.
[07:17] Chifusa
    I was the one who defeated them, though.
[07:20] Chifusa
    You. Are you hurt?
[07:21] Itamune
    No, thanks to you,
[07:23] Itamune
    I'm f-f-f...

SIGN    Painter
    
    
    Itamune Sakoji
[07:38] Itamune
    I'm a painter.
[07:41] Itamune
    My name is Itamune Sakoji.
[07:46] Itamune
    For four years I've walked these lands,
[07:50] Itamune
    discovering hidden beauties and painting them.
[07:55] Itamune
    But...!
[07:56] Itamune
    No matter how much I painted,
    my heart remained unfulfilled.
[07:59] Itamune
    Somewhere out there, I knew,
    a lone flower awaited me.
[08:03] Itamune
    And at last, I've found her! My sweet pea!
[08:06] Chifusa
    Aww...
[08:07] Itamune
    This must be fate!
[08:09] Itamune
    Destiny!
[08:10] Itamune
    You, ma'am, are a beauty like none other!
[08:12] Chifusa
    You're flattering me...
[08:14] Itamune
    I can't let my life as a painter
    end without painting you!
[08:17] Chifusa
    But you know...
[08:18] Itamune
    Please, be my model for a painting!
[08:23] Kaede
    Me?
[08:25] Itamune
    Yes!
[08:26] Itamune
    You are my sweet pea!
[08:29] Chifusa
    Actually, we're being chased ourselves.
    We don't have time for this.
[08:34] Kaede
    Aww, come on, Chifusa-sama!
[08:36] Itamune
    Really?
[08:38] Itamune
    Give me two days—no, just one day!
[08:40] Chifusa
    N-No!
[08:42] Kaede
    What? You're just mad because
    you didn't get picked to be a model!
[08:45] Chifusa
    I-It's not like that.
[08:48] Kaede
    I'm right, aren't I?
[08:50] Kaede
    Look at you panic!
[08:51] Chifusa
    Wh-What?
[08:53] Chifusa
    Come on, we're leaving!
[08:54] Kaede
    No!
[08:56] Kaede
    Come on!
[08:57] Kaede
    We can spare a day!
[08:59] Kaede
    Just go on without me.
[09:01] Kaede
    You're the one they're after.
[09:03] Chifusa
    What?
[09:07] Kaede
    Let's go!
[09:09] Itamune
    O-Okay...
[09:13] Chifusa
    W-Well, fine, then!
[09:17] Itamune
    Was it really okay for you to say that?
[09:19] Kaede
    It's fine!
[09:21] Kaede
    I mean, Chifusa-sama says that it doesn't
    matter how big your boobs are,
[09:26] Kaede
    but she gets excited whenever
    anybody gawks at her. It's annoying!
[09:30] Kaede
    She needs to learn her lesson.
[09:34] Itamune
    All right, let's get a room
    at that inn town to do the painting.
[09:45] Kaede
    This room is beautiful.
[09:46] Kaede
    I've never stayed anywhere like this before.
[09:49] Itamune
    You haven't?
[09:54] Kaede
    No...
[09:55] Itamune
    Kaede-san?
[09:57] Kaede
    I got a little nervous.
[10:02] Kaede
    Um...
[10:04] Kaede
    Thank you for choosing me, Itamune-san.
[10:08] Itamune
    Just call me Sakoji.
[10:11] Kaede
    Sakoji-san.
[10:13] Itamune
    Yes.
[10:22] Kaede
    It's a festival day?
[10:23] Itamune
    Why don't we go have some fun first?
[11:10] (Flashback) Chifusa
    It's spinning more than usual!
[11:16] Itamune
    It's beautiful, isn't it?
[11:26] Kaede
    That's right!
[11:27] Itamune
    I see.
[11:30] Kaede
    That was so much fun.
[11:36] Drunk
    Watch where you're going, flat girl!
[11:40] Itamune
    Are you okay?
[11:42] Kaede
    Yes.
[11:43] Itamune
    What a terrible thing to say.
[11:45] Kaede
    It's fine. That's just what the world
    is like right now for people like me.
[11:49] Itamune
    Don't say that. To me, at least, you're...
[11:54] Itamune
    No, nothing.
[11:56] Itamune
    Let's head back to the inn.
[12:06] Itamune
    Now, let's begin.
[12:09] Kaede
    Yes? Um, what do I do?
[12:11] Itamune
    Can you take your clothes off?
[12:19] Kaede
    My clothes?
[12:21] Itamune
    I draw women nude.
[12:24] Kaede
    But...
[12:27] Itamune
    Don't worry.
[12:31] Itamune
    It's just this one picture.
[12:33] Kaede
    N-No.
[12:35] Itamune
    Why?
[12:37] Kaede
    Because I'm embarrassed.
[12:41] Itamune
    All right.
[12:42] Itamune
    I won't lay a finger on you.
[12:45] Itamune
    But...
[12:48] Itamune
    Please.
[12:49] Itamune
    You're the only one I can ask to do this.
[13:04] Itamune
    Will you move your hands?
[13:07] Kaede
    Okay...
[13:29] Itamune
    Splendid.
[13:31] Kaede
    You really think so?
[13:33] Itamune
    Yes.
[13:35] Itamune
    Will you turn to the side?
[13:36] Kaede
    Okay...
[13:42] Itamune
    Now turn in a circle.
[13:47] Itamune
    Yes, slowly.
[13:57] Kaede
    Why...?
[13:59] Kaede
    All he's doing is looking at me, but...
[14:01] Itamune
    Beautiful...
[14:03] Itamune
    Smooth, pure skin.
[14:07] Itamune
    Tiny, bud-like nipples...
[14:12] Itamune
    And more than anything...
[14:14] Itamune
    gently sloping breasts
    whose growth stopped partway.
[14:18] Itamune
    A chest on which not a single shadow falls!
[14:22] Itamune
    I knew I was right!
[14:24] Itamune
    You are the perfect flat girl
    that I've been looking for!
[14:37] Kaede
    You jerk!
[14:40] Itamune
    Kaede-san!
[14:44] Chifusa
    I see.
[14:45] Chifusa
    So that's what this was about.
[14:50] Chifusa
    I heard what you were saying to her.
[14:52] Itamune
    You're...
[14:54] Chifusa
    I knew it wrong to do so,
[14:55] Chifusa
    but I was worried about Kaede,
    so I followed you.
[15:00] Itamune
    Why is Kaede...
[15:03] Chifusa
    She lost the breasts she once had.
[15:12] (Flashback) Munenori
    Even if you were her servant, you still tried
    to flee the village alongside the traitor.
[15:18] (Flashback) Munenori
    We won't kill you.
[15:21] (Flashback) Munenori
    Those who live by the law of breasts
[15:24] (Flashback) Munenori
    must pay for their sins with their breasts.
[15:31] Spies
    Oh, my.
[15:33] Spies
    What are you doing here all alone?
[15:36] Itamune
    So her flat chest wasn't
    something she was born with.
[15:40] Itamune
    And I had no idea...
[15:44] Chifusa
    Why did you decide to draw flat girls?
[15:46] Chifusa
    Breast size is everything in this world.
[15:49] Itamune
    I know.
[15:51] Itamune
    Nobody buys pictures of flat girls.
[15:55] Chifusa
    Then you know how much
    those without breasts suffer.
[16:01] Kaede
    You're the ones from earlier...?
[16:06] Spies
    Where's the girl from the clan?
[16:09] Spies
    Killing that wimpy man
    seemed like a waste of time.
[16:13] Spies
    But I really am lucky, I guess,
[16:15] Spies
    'cause I found the traitor!
[16:20] Kaede
    You're with the Manyu!
[16:22] Spies
    Give up!
[16:24] Spies
    Hmm... Maybe we can use you as a hostage.
[16:30] Spies
    Or maybe...
[16:33] Spies
    There's really nothing there, huh?
[16:35] Spies
    I heard they took your breasts
    for being a traitor.
[16:42] Spies
    A flat Manyu girl...
[16:46] Spies
    Hilarious.
[16:48] Spies
    You bring shame to the Manyu!
[16:50] Spies
    And one who brings such shame...
    would be better off dead!
[16:55] Itamune
    Hold it!
[16:58] Spies
    Boss!
[17:01] Spies
    You!
[17:02] Spies
    Stay out of this, wimp!
[17:04] Itamune
    I can't do that!
[17:06] Kaede
    Sakoji-san!
[17:07] Itamune
    Kaede-san is my model.
[17:09] Itamune
    I won't let you touch her!
[17:13] Spies
    So the flat-chick painter
    wants to draw the boobless girl?
[17:17] Spies
    Sounds about right.
[17:19] Spies
    I'll kill you along with her.
[17:23] Spies
    You're going to die here because you started
    drawing flat girls on some crazy whim.
[17:29] Spies
    Fool.
[17:31] Spies
    In the end, nobody ever cared about your art.
[17:35] Spies
    How about drawing some
    real breasts before the end?
[17:39] Spies
    See? I'm much hotter than she is!
[17:44] Itamune
    Nonsense!
[17:45] Itamune
    The day when flat girls rule shall come!
[17:48] Itamune
    I was just born a hundred years too soon!
[17:51] Itamune
    No, even now, I'm sure there are people
    who want pictures of flat girls!
[17:55] Itamune
    The world is wrong for thinking
    big boobs are better!
[18:00] Itamune
    I'll change the world with my art!
[18:08] Itamune
    You said you're from the Manyu Clan, right?
[18:10] Itamune
    You must've come after me
    because you were afraid of that.
[18:13] Itamune
    But it's useless.
[18:15] Itamune
    Your threats don't scare me!
[18:18] Itamune
    Because I love...
[18:21] Itamune
    flat...
[18:22] Itamune
    girls...
[18:22] Itamune
    more than anyone in the world!
[18:27] Itamune
    World!
[18:28] Itamune
    World!
[18:30] Itamune
    World...!
[18:33] Itamune
    I'm sorry for not considering
    your feelings back there.
[18:36] Itamune
    But I mean every word I say.
[18:39] Itamune
    Can you understand my true feelings?
[18:45] Kaede
    But in a hundred years from now,
    I won't be flat, I'll just be bones...
[18:49] Itamune
    I'll use my art to bring
    that era fifty years closer!
[18:53] Kaede
    You jerk...
[18:55] Itamune
    You heard me.
[18:58] Itamune
    So put those lumps of fat away.
[19:04] Spies
    "Lumps of fat"? That's not very nice.
[19:06] Chifusa
    Indeed.
[19:07] Chifusa
    "Lumps of fat" is just a mean thing to say.
[19:10] Kaede
    Chifusa-sama!
[19:12] Chifusa
    I see.
[19:13] Chifusa
    If you're Manyu assassins...
[19:16] Chifusa
    I don't need to hold back, do I?
[19:20] Spies
    Um, please go easy on us...
[19:23] Spies
    No!
[19:34] Kaede
    Sorry for being so selfish.
[19:39] Kaede
    I apologize for the trouble I caused.
[19:43] Kaede
    I'm a failure as your servant, aren't I?
[19:53] Chifusa
    You're ready.
[20:06] Chifusa
    You're beautiful.
[20:08] Kaede
    Chifusa-sama...
[20:13] Chifusa
    Go.
[20:16] Kaede
    Okay!
[20:38] Itamune
    Kaede-san, would you like to come with me?
[20:42] Itamune
    You're my ideal...
[20:45] Kaede
    Thank you.
[20:47] Kaede
    That makes me really happy.
[20:51] Kaede
    But... I'm sorry.
[20:54] Kaede
    I really do want my breasts back.
[20:57] Kaede
    I'm going to travel with Chifusa-sama
    and get them back.
[21:01] Kaede
    You wouldn't want to
    see me with breasts, right?
[21:15] Chifusa
    You're sure about this?
[21:17] Kaede
    Yes.
[23:10] Kaede
    Flaaat! Now, next week on Manyu Scroll...
[23:14] Chifusa
    Kaede, did you just say "flat"?
[23:17] Kaede
    I did not! Flaaat! Now, as for the preview...
[23:20] Chifusa
    If you want to stay
    with the painter, you can...
[23:23] Kaede
    Flat!
[23:24] Kaede
    Come on, just do the preview.

    N-Next time on Manyu Scroll,
