SIGN    Mr. Villain's Day Off
[01:58] Yamano
    Welcome!
[02:05] first-timer
    I just joined the workforce this spring.
[02:09] first-timer
    I was so looking forward to living
    on my own the first time.
[02:13] first-timer
    At the end of the day,
    I'd go out drinking with coworkers.
[02:18] first-timer
    I'd even go to the gym.

    On my days off, I'd visit all
    sorts of places for fun...
[02:24] first-timer
    At least, that was the plan.
[02:27] first-timer
    But I just don't have the energy.
[02:30] first-timer
    If I don't stay home and do laundry,
    I won't have any underwear.
SIGN    Seaweed Lunch (Fish Paste)
[02:35] first-timer
    I also wanted to cook for myself,
[02:38] first-timer
    but when I get home,
    I can't even manage that.
[02:40] first-timer
    I can't keep living like this.
    It's too expensive.
[02:45] first-timer
    Yet I end up giving in anyway,
    then get depressed over how much I suck.

[03:21] Yamano
    Welcome!
[03:24] first-timer
    He's on good terms with the clerk?
[03:26] first-timer
    That's odd.
[03:27] Mr. Villain
    I have a question. Where did
    the Chinese bun case go?
[03:31] Yamano
    The promotion period ended,
    so we had to take it down.
[03:36] Yamano
    We only had them until early April.
[03:40] Mr. Villain
    Oh...
[03:42] first-timer
    That is some serious disappointment!
[03:44] Yamano
    I-I'm so sorry!
[03:46] Yamano
    I know that was your go-to treat after work.
[03:49] Mr. Villain
    Yeah.
[03:51] first-timer
    I guess I'm not the only one who hits the
    convenience store on the way home from work.
[03:56] Mr. Villain
    It was my reward for a hard day's work.
[04:00] Mr. Villain
    I needed it to get me through.
[04:04] Yamano
    It's important to reward yourself!
[04:07] Yamano
    We may not have those buns anymore,
    but we got some new frozen treats!
[04:13] Mr. Villain
    What did you just say?
[04:16] Mr. Villain
    I'd like to hear more about it.
[04:18] Yamano
    Follow me!
[04:24] first-timer
    A reward?
[04:26] first-timer
    I was so focused on the negative,
    I never thought of it that way.
[04:34] first-timer
    Even if there are things I can't do,
    maybe I should just celebrate working hard.

[04:54] Yamano
    Thanks for stopping by!
[04:58] first-timer

[05:47] first-timer
    I-Is this any good?
[05:52] Yamano
    I love it!
[05:58] first-timer
    I'll get one.

[07:01] Mr. Villain
    Ah, it's you.
[07:03] Yamano
    I was just wondering
     if you might not make it today.
[07:07] first-timer
    It's that clerk and Mr. Tough Guy.
[07:11] first-timer
    They sure do seem to get along well.
[07:14] Yamano
    You know what?
[07:21] Yamano
    We got in some new ice cream products!
[07:28] Mr. Villain
    Please tell me more.
[07:30] Yamano
    Mhm!
[07:37] first-timer
    Staring too much would be rude.
[07:43] Yamano
    This is our new lineup.
[07:46] Yamano
    I'd especially recommend this one!
[07:48] Yamano
    It's rich soft serve loaded with fruit!
[07:52] Yamano
    And look! We've got two flavors: strawberry
    adzuki and banana molasses kinako.
[07:57] Yamano
    Not only do they both taste great,
SIGN    Banana Molasses
    Kinako Soft Serve
[08:00] Yamano
    but I think they also make
     for one hearty snack!
SIGN    Strawberry Adzuki Soft Serve
[08:05] Mr. Villain
    Yes, they both look delicious.
[08:08] first-timer
    She sure got my attention.

    Strawberry adzuki and
    banana molasses kinako?

[08:18] Yamano
    Strawberry adzuki!
[08:20] first-timer
    They're at odds!
[08:26] Yamano
    There I go again!
[08:29] Yamano
    I-I'm sorry!
[08:30] Yamano
    I was so sure you'd prefer the strawberry,
     I couldn't stop myself!
[08:35] first-timer
    What'll we do if Mr. Tough Guy gets angry?
[08:39] Mr. Villain
    Don't worry.
[08:40] Mr. Villain
    Your recommendations are
    always on the money.
[08:44] Mr. Villain
    Why don't I buy both and do a taste test?
[08:48] Yamano
    Oh, wow!
[08:50] Yamano
    I-I'm sorry!
    I didn't mean to make you get two!
[08:53] Mr. Villain
    It's fine.
[08:54] Mr. Villain
    Chances are I would've just come back
    another day to buy the other one.
[08:59] Mr. Villain
    Ring me up.
[09:00] Yamano
    Y-Yes, sir!
[09:13] first-timer
    For today's treat,
[09:15] first-timer
    maybe I'll get some of this ice cream too.
[09:18] first-timer
    Now, strawberry adzuki or
    banana molasses kinako?
[09:26] Yamano
    Thank you so much!

[09:49] Mr. Villain
    Now then, which shall I try first?
[09:52] Mr. Villain
    Tomorrow is my first day off in a while.
[09:55] Mr. Villain
    There'll be plenty of time for indecision.
[10:00] Mr. Villain
    I'm a high-ranking officer of the Evil League,
    which fights daily to wipe out humankind
[10:10] Mr. Villain
    and claim the Earth in the
    name of our home planet.
[10:16] Mr. Villain
    But today is my day off.
[10:21] Mr. Villain
    I'm visiting a place called a café
    in search of a thing called "latte art."
[10:32] barista
    Welcome.
[10:44] Mr. Villain
    What is that?
[10:46] Mr. Villain
    Some kind of experimental instrument?
[10:49] barista
    What can I get you?
[10:51] Mr. Villain
    One of these.
[10:53] barista
    Coming right up.
[10:59] Mr. Villain
    What's he going to do?
[11:10] Mr. Villain
    Wh-What is that?!
[11:12] barista
    A siphon coffee maker.
[11:14] barista
    Pour-over coffee is nice too,
    but our café's always done it this way.
[11:22] barista
    Thank you for waiting.
[11:26] Mr. Villain
    So there's more than
    one way to make coffee...
[11:34] Mr. Villain
    What now?
[11:36] Mr. Villain
    What is that sound?!
[11:38] Mr. Villain
    What the hell is that guy doing?
[11:41] Mr. Villain
    He has to make all that noise
    just to make coffee?
[11:49] barista
    Thanks for waiting.
[11:52] barista
    Take your time and enjoy.
[12:03] Mr. Villain
    Looks just as charming as the rumors say.
[12:15] Mr. Villain
    How does one go about drinking this?
[12:34] Mr. Villain
    Wh-What's the meaning of this?
[12:39] Mr. Villain
    The more I drink, the less panda it becomes!
[12:49] Mr. Villain
    Latte art...
[12:51] Mr. Villain
    What a merciless beverage!
[12:57] panda
    It's all right.
[13:00] panda
    This is our destiny.
[13:30] Mr. Villain
    O panda!
[13:48] office worker
    Barista.
[13:50] office worker
    Another panda latte for
    this customer over here.
[13:54] barista
    Sure.
[14:11] Mr. Villain
    I got so worked up over that panda
     latte that I bought too much.
[14:17] Mr. Villain
    It's so heavy it's about
    to dislocate my shoulder.
[14:20] Mr. Villain
    After all, I'm carrying...
[14:29] Mr. Villain
    a massive amount of milk for making
    stew, pudding, and almond jelly!
[14:38] Mr. Villain
    Stew is, of course,
    delicious in and of itself.
[14:42] Mr. Villain
    But rice gratin, pasta, and omelet rice...
[14:47] Mr. Villain
    It can be used in such
    a wide range of cuisine.
[14:51] Mr. Villain
    Starting next week, I have
    to work a bunch of days in a row.
[14:55] Mr. Villain
    It'll be worth it to cook
    some meals in advance.
[14:59] Mr. Villain
    Once the pudding and almond jelly are done,
    I'll top them with panda decorations.
[15:05] Mr. Villain
    I had the idea
    while drinking that panda latte.
[15:11] Mr. Villain
    Today, I embark on a trial run.
[15:14] Mr. Villain
    I anticipate some degree of failure,
    so I bought extra milk.
[15:20] Mr. Villain
    And for the arrangement of all this food,
[15:24] Mr. Villain
    I'll use the panda dishware I
    stumbled across by blind luck!
[15:56] Mr. Villain
    I've managed to make it back to my building,
[16:00] Mr. Villain
    yet one final hurdle remains...
[16:03] Mr. Villain
    The stairs!
[16:07] Mr. Villain
    Why won't you install an
    elevator, Earthlings?!
[16:12] Mr. Villain
    Nevertheless...
[16:16] Mr. Villain
    I won't be defeated here!
[16:25] Mr. Villain
    With each step I take,
[16:28] Mr. Villain
    these bags bite into my shoulders and hands!
[16:34] Mr. Villain
    What spiritually taxing toil!
[16:37] Mr. Villain
    My fingers are about to tear off.
[16:41] Mr. Villain
    Once I reach the top of these stairs,
[16:45] Mr. Villain
    I'll start by making stew,
[16:49] Mr. Villain
    and I'll put it in my panda bowl!
[16:53] Mr. Villain
    Stay strong.
[16:55] Mr. Villain
    Don't give up!
[16:57] Mr. Villain
    You hear me, legs and shoulders?!
[17:01] Mr. Villain
    I see it now—the end of my long journey!

[18:08] Mr. Villain
    I've come to see the cherry blossoms
    as the Earthlings so love to do...
[18:14] Mr. Villain
    But the flowers have already fallen.
[18:21] Mr. Villain
    I even went to the trouble
    of packing a lunch for this.

    Some planet this is.
[19:45] Mr. Villain
    But fret not. I'll wipe out humanity for sure.

[19:51] Mr. Villain
    Have as much as you'd like.
[19:55] girl
    You here to see the flowers, mister?
[19:58] Mr. Villain
    Yeah.
[20:00] Mr. Villain
    Though it seems I'm too late.
[20:05] Mr. Villain
    Be sure to chew thoroughly.
[20:08] girl
    I'll show them to you.
[20:23] Mr. Villain
    Unlike the flora of my home planet,
    which retain their flowers until they wither,
[20:30] Mr. Villain
    this cherry blossom tree scatters
    its petals shortly after they bloom.
[20:37] Mr. Villain
    Humans supposedly find the spectacle elegant.
[21:05] Mr. Villain
    I see now.
    Seeing them fall truly is beautiful.
[21:19] Mr. Villain
    Did she go home?
[21:22] Mr. Villain
    After that, I went back several
    times with a packed lunch,
[21:27] Mr. Villain
    but I did not encounter that child.
[21:36] Mr. Villain
    Perhaps I'll go again next year
    when the flowers are in bloom.
