    I don't get how to do this.

[05:21] ---
    If I asked my previous boss something,
[05:23] ---
    he wouldn't answer, and instead, he'd blow up
    and hurl a mouse or pen stand at me.

[05:27] ---
    What's the matter?
[05:29] ---
    Nothing.
[05:30] ---
    But in my new boss's case...
[05:33] ---
    Oh, this is pretty tricky, isn't it?
[05:36] ---
    While saying that, he'd click on my hand,
    thinking it was the mouse.

[05:40] ---
    Hey! Mr. Shirosaki's harassing him!
[05:44] ---
    Whoa! Sorry!
[05:48] ---
    Momose? Sorry about that.
[05:51] ---
    You must've been creeped out,
    having an old guy squeeze your hand.
[05:54] ---
    I'll buy you lunch to make up for it.
[05:56] ---
    No, you don't have to do that.

    You were so nice about showing me
    without throwing anything...
[06:02] ---
    I feel like I should be treating you.

    Then treat me to a popsicle.
[06:11] ---
    Your old boss...
[06:13] ---
    He would throw things at you?
[06:14] ---
    What? Uh, well...
[06:17] ---
    Oh, man. I accidentally called attention
    to my history of being bullied.

[06:21] ---
    What am I, needy or something?
[06:24] ---
    But to be honest,
    I think I'd like to tell him about it.

[06:29] ---
    Actually, no way!
[06:31] ---
    He'll find out how fragile
    my mental state and stomach still are,

[06:34] ---
    and despise me
    for being a pain in the butt!

[06:37] ---
    I don't want to be hated by my boss again.
[06:40] ---
    Ugh, no sooner did I say that,
    my mental state took a dive.

[06:44] ---
    I need something soothing.
[06:47] ---
    I wish I could watch cat videos.

[19:27] ---
    I'm so glad to hear it.
[19:29] ---
    No, really, thank you so much.
[19:35] ---
    Because everyone's always...
[19:38] ---
    I see.
[19:41] ---
    It doesn't matter how flashy it is outwardly.
[19:44] ---
    The important thing...
[19:47] ---
    is to make sure that it's beloved by everyone,
    and that it can heal people in its tiny way.

SIGN    PROJECT PROPOSAL
[20:49] ---
    It was really good. You pass.
[20:55] ---
    It's all thanks to you!
    Thank you very much.
[20:59] ---
    No, it was your talent, Momose.
[21:04] ---
    Shirosaki, you've become such a fine boss.
[21:08] ---
    Your Section Chief was quite moved!
[21:12] ---
    Also, Shirosaki,
    I've kept quiet for ten years,

SIGN    I SAW A FLOUNDER
[21:16] ---
    but that photo you sent me
    wasn't a flounder, but a flatfish.

[21:22] ---
    I'd like to give you something to celebrate
    your proposal going through.
[21:25] ---
    What do you want?
[21:26] ---
    That's what my boss asked me, so...
[21:28] ---
    In that case...
[21:30] ---
    That sketch he drew for me
    the other day was cute,

[21:33] ---
    so when I asked him to draw a version of him
    exterminating the demons,

[21:36] ---
    for some reason he gave me a drawing
    of him airing out a futon.

[21:40] ---
    Huh? A futon?
[21:41] ---
    You wanted him
    exterminating fleas, right?
[21:43] ---
    Flea extermination!
[21:45] ---
    My new boss is goofy, after all.
[23:25] ---
    Sorry. I nearly stepped on a dandelion.
[23:28] ---
    Dandelion?
[23:31] ---
    When I stepped around it, I tripped.
[23:33] ---
    It sure is cute.

[00:02] ---
    My abusive boss damaged my spirit
    and my health, so I changed jobs.

[00:13] ---
    Oh, Manager. Good morning.
[00:16] ---
    Good morning.
[00:18] ---
    The cicadas
    are really loud today, aren't they?
[00:22] ---
    Th-There's a cicada on your shoulder.
[00:33] ---
    Here, you go like this.
[00:35] ---
    Right.
[00:38] ---
    Is there anything that wasn't clear
    about my explanation?
[00:40] ---
    I'm fine. That was really clear.
[00:44] ---
    I'm glad.
[00:45] ---
    You're the first person who ever
    showed me the ropes like this, Boss.
[00:49] ---
    I really appreciate it!
[00:52] ---
    Your old boss didn't show you what to do?
[00:56] ---
    I shouldn't have said that.
[00:59] ---
    Uh, well...
[01:02] ---
    Now I've made the vibe all gloomy.
[01:06] ---
    Well, let's take a break for now.
[01:09] ---
    Hey, there's an eraser stuck to his arm.
[01:13] ---
    It fell.
[01:19] ---
    Sorry. I thought it was a cicada.
[01:22] ---
    SIGH
[01:22] ---
    My boss is perched on my shoulder.
[01:25] ---
    It was an eraser.
[01:28] ---
    My new boss is goofy.

    SEMINAR FOR ADVERTISING AGENCIES
    WEB AD POLICIES
    DIGITAL MARKETING WORKSHOP
[03:10] ---
    Oh, a seminar?
[03:11] ---
    You really don't like cicadas, do you?
[03:14] ---
    Well, when I was a kid,
    I found a dead cicada on the street.
[03:24] ---
    Mr. Cicada?
[03:34] ---
    I almost died, I was so stunned.
[03:36] ---
    I feel bad for you,
    but that's adorable.

[03:38] ---
    Shirosaki, you're also scared of other things
    like monsters, right?
[03:42] ---
    Monsters.
[03:43] ---
    Yes. As a child,
    I was abducted by a namahage.
[03:47] ---
    Any sniveling kids around?
[03:52] ---
    Ever since then, the unknown
    has made me uncomfortable.
[03:55] ---
    HELP ME! HELP ME PWEASE!
[03:56] ---
    I feel bad for you,
    but that's adorable!

[04:05] ---
    Yes, you did a good job.
    Thanks, Momose.
[04:09] ---
    It's all because you explained it
    so well to me.
[04:12] ---
    No, it's because you're competent.
[04:15] ---
    In fact, when PR asked me for competent employees
    to feature in the company newsletter,
[04:19] ---
    I recommended you, Momose.
[04:22] ---
    You didn't want me to?
    Sorry I didn't ask you first.
[04:27] ---
    No, no, I'm thrilled!
[04:29] ---
    Glad to hear it.
[04:31] ---
    Oh, and they want to put
    your photo up, too, if possible.
[04:35] ---
    Well, as long as a photo
    of a guy like me is okay.
[04:38] ---
    All right, then.
[04:40] ---
    Say cheese.
[04:44] ---
    One more.
    Let's get a close-up of your face.
[04:48] ---
    All right. I'll send this to Public Relations.

    Hey, your wallpaper!
    Why is it Mr. Momose?
[05:12] ---
    BLUSH
[05:14] ---
    I guess Mr. Momose is so competent,
    you have to have him as your wallpaper!
[05:17] ---
    I'm using that for the headline!
[05:22] ---
    Still, I wonder...

    Our new project is an ad
    for an amusement park this time.
[05:43] ---
    I want you to go through the materials.
[05:45] ---
    Tomorrow we'll go scout
    the location together.
[05:48] ---
    Okay!
[05:50] ---
    First an aquarium,
    now an amusement park, huh?

[05:53] ---
    We have a lot of accounts
    in the amusement industry. Good luck!
[05:57] ---
    Oh, and one more thing.
[06:00] ---
    They'll be inspecting the fire alarms today,
[06:03] ---
    so the bells will be going off,
    but don't mind them, all right?
[06:04] ---
    FIRE ALARM INSPECTION
[06:05] ---
    Right.
[06:06] ---
    Shirosaki? About this project...
[06:08] ---
    Yes?
[06:13] ---
    Fire alarms.
[06:16] ---
    That reminds me of that fire alarm incident
    at my old workplace.

[06:21] ---
    Fire!
[06:27] ---
    Outta my way, idiot!
[06:34] ---
    STOMACH A
[06:38] ---
    Luckily, it was just a small fire, but...
[06:42] ---
    Hey, forget about the past
    and focus on your work!

[06:57] ---
    My stomach's starting to hurt again.
[06:59] ---
    I hate myself for not being able to let go
    when all I want to do is forget!

[07:03] ---
    What the heck should I do?
[07:10] ---
    Fire! We're leaving!
[07:15] ---
    Wh-What's the matter?
    Are you so scared you can't stand?
[07:19] ---
    Should I carry you piggyback?
[07:22] ---
    U-Um....
[07:24] ---
    RELEASE
[07:26] ---
    It's an inspection. Sorry.
[07:26] ---
    I'M THE ONE WHO SAID IT WAS AN INSPECTION, RIGHT?
[07:31] ---
    CRACKING UP
[07:33] ---
    I'm really sorry.
[07:34] ---
    BLUSH
[07:37] ---
    If a fire breaks out,
    I'm going to risk my life to protect him.

[07:41] ---
    FLUFF
[07:41] ---
    Thanks to my boss's
    kindness and impact,

[07:43] ---
    the trauma of that fire incident
    vanished without a trace.

[08:04] ---
    Two office workers
    at an amusement park.

[08:08] ---
    Sore thumb, much?
[08:09] ---
    It may be a weekday, but it's summer break
    for everyone, so it's pretty crowded.
[08:13] ---
    I'm so sorry! Thank you for waiting!
[08:16] ---
    Thank you for your time today.
[08:19] ---
    My name is Momose.
    I look forward to working with you.
[08:21] ---
    Likewise, I'm looking forward
    to working with you, too.
[08:24] ---
    The ad that Mr. Shirosaki and his team
    created for us last time was a huge hit!
[08:28] ---
    Thank you very much.
[08:29] ---
    We hope to live up
    to your expectations this time, too.
[08:33] ---
    We've done some upgrading
    here and there since then.
[08:35] ---
    Yes, I noticed.
[08:37] ---
    Would you mind if we started off
    by taking a look around the park?
[08:40] ---
    Momose and I
    will tour the grounds on our own.
[08:46] ---
    I haven't been to an amusement park
    since I was a kid.
[08:49] ---
    To create an effective ad, I think it's important
    to actually enjoy the attractions yourself.
[08:55] ---
    Let's go, Momose.
[09:02] ---
    Who would've thought that I'd end up
    on a merry-go-round with my boss?

[09:13] ---
    There's a huge line over there.
[09:15] ---
    Would you like to line up?
[09:17] ---
    Let's do it. Sometimes you can gain insights
    through personal experience.
[09:51] ---
    Thank you!
[09:54] ---
    Momose, let's move on to the next one.
[09:56] ---
    Okay!
[10:00] ---
    Manager!
[10:19] ---
    We've covered
    a lot of ground, haven't we?
[10:21] ---
    It feels like we just came here
    to hang out.

[10:25] ---
    Oh, wow. Look at all those notes he took
    while having a blast on the rides.

[10:35] ---
    Are you all right, Momose? Use this.
[10:37] ---
    BAND AID
[10:38] ---
    Uh, no. It's ketchup.
[10:46] ---
    So cute!
[10:49] ---
    Yes, he sure is cute.
[10:52] ---
    Uh, I think he means
    the stuffed animal, not me.
[10:58] ---
    His parents aren't around?
[10:59] ---
    Where are your mommy and daddy?
[11:01] ---
    They went off somewhere.
[11:04] ---
    Seems like he's a lost child.
[11:05] ---
    I'll take him over
    to the Lost Children Facility.
[11:08] ---
    I'll come with you.
[11:10] ---
    No, this boy's parents
    might come looking for him,
[11:14] ---
    so I want you to wait here, Momose.
[11:16] ---
    You can have this,
    so let's go look for your parents.
[11:26] ---
    Is he going to be all right?
[11:29] ---
    Excuse me, this is a lost child.
[11:31] ---
    Thank you so much.
[11:34] ---
    You'll be okay now.
[11:36] ---
    And what's your name?
[11:37] ---
    Yusei Shirosaki.
[11:43] ---
    - He's still not back.
    - We have a lost child here.
[11:46] ---
    The name of the lost child
    is Yusei Shirosaki.

[11:49] ---
    If you know him,
    please come to the Lost Child Facility.

[11:52] ---
    Manager...
[11:58] ---
    Manager!
[12:00] ---
    Momose.
[12:07] ---
    Thank goodness
    they found that kid's parents.
[12:10] ---
    All right, let's get back to work.
[12:12] ---
    This is the last one.
[12:14] ---
    HAUNTED HOUSE
[12:26] ---
    HAUNTED HOUSE
[12:28] ---
    This is the biggest attraction of the park.
[12:31] ---
    The upgraded Haunted House.
[12:33] ---
    Momose.
[12:35] ---
    If you don't like scary things,
    you can wait out here.
[12:39] ---
    No, I'm totally fine!
[12:40] ---
    NOTHING'S SCARIER
    THAN AN ABUSIVE BOSS
[12:42] ---
    Actually, what about you?
    This isn't really your thing, right?
[12:46] ---
    I'll be fine
    because it's all make-believe.
[12:49] ---
    They're not real monsters.
[12:56] ---
    It sure is dark in here.
[13:05] ---
    What? Is he my girlfriend?
[13:09] ---
    Sorry, couldn't help it.
[13:12] ---
    Maybe we shouldn't go in after all?
[13:15] ---
    No, I want to experience it so that
    we can create a good ad that rings true.
[13:21] ---
    To do your job well, you have to confront
    what you're afraid of, too.

[13:26] ---
    That's really helpful!
[13:27] ---
    I'm okay now. Follow me.
[13:30] ---
    How cool is that?
[13:32] ---
    WALL
[13:32] ---
    BAM
[13:32] ---
    ISN'T LOOKING FORWARD AT ALL
[13:33] ---
    Manager?
[13:36] ---
    Uh, if you'd like,
    you can grab onto my sleeve or my arm.
[13:40] ---
    No, I don't want it to turn into
    sexual harassment, so I'll pass.
[13:43] ---
    Oh, hey, no.
[13:46] ---
    All right, let's go.
[13:56] ---
    SQUEEZE
[14:01] ---
    Thank you for all your... hard work...
[14:03] ---
    We're back.
[14:05] ---
    What? Huh?
[14:08] ---
    I-I can see that we'll be getting
    an ad that will convey how scary it is!

[14:25] ---
    I hope all is well over there.
    This is Shirosaki.
[14:28] ---
    We just finished our tour and meeting.
[14:29] ---
    Momose and I will be heading home now.
[14:31] ---
    All right. Good job, both of you.
[14:37] ---
    1 NEW NOTIFICATION
[14:43] ---
    10 YEARS AGO
[14:43] ---
    Listen up, Shirosaki.
[14:43] ---
    KITTY CAT LAND
[14:48] ---
    By being serious about using and experiencing
    what you're going to advertise,
[14:52] ---
    you can create a good ad that rings true.
[14:55] ---
    Oh, want some popcorn?
[15:04] ---
    Shirosaki, you've grown to become
    a good boss, I see.

[15:21] ---
    Sorry.
[15:22] ---
    Due to a power outage in part of the city,
    we've made an emergency stop.

[15:22] ---
    I-It's okay.
[15:26] ---
    We're truly sorry for the inconvenience
    when we know you're in a hurry,

[15:28] ---
    - Oh, no.
    - They say the traffic lights are out, too.
[15:30] ---
    but please stand by until power is restored.
[15:32] ---
    What? That sounds bad.
[15:35] ---
    Look how dark it is outside.
[15:37] ---
    Manager, are you okay with the dark?
[15:40] ---
    Yes, since there's all these people
    around us.
[15:44] ---
    But still, you can really see the stars
    when it's dark, even in Tokyo.
[15:50] ---
    Oh, you're right.
[15:51] ---
    It reminds me of Akita.
[15:53] ---
    That's right, you did say
    that you were from Akita.
[15:56] ---
    Uh-huh. Y'all reckonin'
    about your hometown, too?
[15:59] ---
    REMINDED SO MUCH OF AKITA
    THAT HIS ACCENT KICKS IN
[16:02] ---
    On your résumé, you put down
    Hokkaido, I think?
[16:05] ---
    Yes, this makes me think about Hokkaido.
[16:08] ---
    But more than that, it brings back memories
    of the day I decided to switch jobs.
[16:14] ---
    At the time, I was a little stressed
    about my workplace.
[16:23] ---
    My stomach hurts.
[16:25] ---
    I want to quit my job.
[16:27] ---
    But I'm too scared
    to tell them that I want to quit.
[16:31] ---
    Then one day...
[16:38] ---
    I went to the office, only to find it closed.
[16:40] ---
    Apparently, because there was a typhoon coming
    that day, they'd hastily closed the office.

[16:45] ---
    I told you, but you weren't listening!
[16:48] ---
    You never told me.
[16:54] ---
    Even though I got out of going to work,
    I'm not feeling any better.

[17:03] ---
    When I happened to look up at the sky,
[17:07] ---
    I saw a pitch-black billboard.
[17:13] ---
    Is that an ad for my mental state?
[17:16] ---
    But when I looked closer,
    there was a single ray of light.

[17:19] ---
    WHEN YOU FIND A SINGLE RAY OF LIGHT
    THE DARKNESS TURNS INTO
    A BEAUTIFUL NIGHT SKY (WORLD)
    YOU'RE SURE TO FIND YOUR LIGHT (STAR)
    PLANETARIUM TOKYO
[17:21] ---
    Turns out, it was an ad
    for the planetarium.

[17:26] ---
    I want to find my light.
[17:28] ---
    I've had enough of darkness.
[17:31] ---
    That ad had resonated with me,
[17:34] ---
    so I headed right over to the planetarium.
[17:36] ---
    The trains might stop running.
[17:38] ---
    Well, who cares?
[17:40] ---
    Seeing that starry sky reminded me
    of the night sky in Hokkaido,

[17:43] ---
    and that I'd come to Tokyo because I wanted
    to create ads that touched people's hearts.

[17:50] ---
    Since the abuse was consuming
    all of my energy,

[17:52] ---
    I'd totally lost sight of that.
[17:56] ---
    YOU'RE SURE TO FIND YOUR LIGHT (STAR)
    PLANETARIUM TOKYO
[17:56] ---
    I want to make an ad like that.
[17:59] ---
    I want to work at the company
    that creates ads like that.

[18:03] ---
    LETTER OF RESIGNATION
[18:03] ---
    That hope transformed into the courage
    to speak up, and tell them I was quitting.

[18:09] ---
    After that, I searched high and low
    for the company behind that ad.

[18:16] ---
    And that's the company
    that I switched jobs to.
[18:22] ---
    I am who I am now because of that ad.
[18:26] ---
    Wait, I just talked your ear off. Sorry!
[18:29] ---
    I guess I'm worked up
    because of the darkness.
[18:33] ---
    I told this same story
    during my job interview.
[18:35] ---
    - I know.
    - What?
[18:37] ---
    I was one of your interviewers.
[18:40] ---
    I-I'm sorry! I was really nervous
    during that interview.
[18:44] ---
    So I don't remember
    what any of you looked like.
[18:51] ---
    BLURRY
[18:54] ---
    W-Wait, were you the one who started
    looking down halfway through?
[18:58] ---
    Yeah. That was me.
[19:03] ---
    My eyes had filled with tears,
    so I couldn't look up.
[19:08] ---
    Tears?
[19:10] ---
    Because I was the one
    who'd made that planetarium ad.
[19:14] ---
    I was so happy.
[19:21] ---
    Sorry. I couldn't seem to find
    the right time to tell you.
[19:29] ---
    We will now resume service.
[19:31] ---
    The train may swerve,
    so please be careful.

[19:38] ---
    You made that ad?
[19:46] ---
    By the way, after you left the room,
[19:49] ---
    even though we hadn't decided
    if you'd passed or not...
[19:52] ---
    I want to be his trainer.
[19:55] ---
    I volunteered.
[20:03] ---
    Since you told me something
    that made me happy,
[20:06] ---
    I wanted to thank you
    by taking good care of you.
[20:11] ---
    Manager.
[20:15] ---
    From day one, I was a mess,
    getting the wrong medicine and all.
[20:17] ---
    FOR PMS
    AND HEADACHES
[20:22] ---
    D-Don't say that! I felt better, actually.
[20:27] ---
    Next stop, Nakano. Nakano.
[20:36] ---
    All right, then. Good night.
[20:40] ---
    Momose.
[20:43] ---
    Thank you for switching
    to our company.
[20:50] ---
    See you tomorrow.
[20:53] ---
    FREEZE
[20:58] ---
    I tried to get off at the wrong station.
[21:00] ---
    I knew it!
[21:07] ---
    Right. I'm finally starting to get it.
[21:12] ---
    After spending all day with him today,
[21:14] ---
    the reason my boss is so goofy is because
    he's constantly thinking about the project.

[21:20] ---
    And above all, because he's striving so hard
    to be considerate for those around him.

[21:31] ---
    There's no question that I'm the one
    who should be thanking you.

[21:44] ---
    Thank you for coming into my life!
[23:20] ---
    DURING A MEETING
[23:24] ---
    I'll toss that garbage for you.
[23:36] ---
    I got to shake hands with him!

[00:01] ---
    I'd had enough of my abusive owner,
    so I ran away.

[00:04] ---
    PLEASE TAKE ME IN
[00:12] ---
    It's an abandoned kitten, right?
[00:15] ---
    Yes.
[00:16] ---
    I was not abandoned.
    I abandoned my owner.

[00:21] ---
    Aww! He's playing with my tie!
[00:25] ---
    ADORABLE
[00:25] ---
    CAT-LOVERS
[00:28] ---
    OH!
[00:33] ---
    He's hissing at Manager!
[00:36] ---
    Why's the little kitty acting like this?
[00:39] ---
    - It always happens.
    - What?
[00:41] ---
    I don't know why,
    but cats always hiss at me.
[00:46] ---
    That's why even though I want a cat,
    I've never had one.
[00:49] ---
    Not even one?
[00:52] ---
    His fur is all ragged.
[00:53] ---
    And he's thin. I think
    we should take him to the vet's.
[00:57] ---
    Whoa! Stay away from me!
[01:02] ---
    Oh! Are you all right, Manager?
[01:05] ---
    Paw.
[01:06] ---
    Paw?
[01:08] ---
    His paw touched me.
[01:10] ---
    It was so soft.
[01:12] ---
    Well, I'm happy for you!
[01:17] ---
    Hey! Little kitty, you can't scratch
    your nails on Manager's briefcase!
[01:23] ---
    Oh, so I can't scratch
    my nails on that, either?

[01:27] ---
    Just like the sofa.
[01:29] ---
    SCRATCH SCRATCH SCRATCH
[01:30] ---
    That time, I got into big trouble
    with my owner.

[01:38] ---
    And she said, "I hate you!"
[01:43] ---
    And she abandoned me.
[01:46] ---
    Wait, I wasn't abandoned!
[01:48] ---
    I'm the one who abandoned her!
[01:50] ---
    He's going to hit me!
[01:53] ---
    That's a good kitty.
[01:58] ---
    I'm guessing that
[02:00] ---
    you wanted to scratch your nails on something
    so you wouldn't hurt anyone, right?
[02:08] ---
    I only scratched my nails
[02:09] ---
    on that sofa because I loved my owner
    and didn't want to hurt her!

[02:13] ---
    But she ended up hating me!
[02:23] ---
    HE'S ATTACHED TO YOU?
[02:23] ---
    The little kitty seems
    to have gotten attached to you.
[02:26] ---
    I-I am not attached!
[02:28] ---
    Manager, it looks like
    you can keep this kitty!
[02:32] ---
    MEOW?!
[02:36] ---
    Paws, paws, paws...
[02:39] ---
    Huh? He's not attached to you?
[02:41] ---
    I think he's going easy on me.
[02:45] ---
    All right. Let's go
    to the veterinary hospital, then.
[04:18] ---
    FLUFFY VETERINARY HOSPITAL
[04:19] ---
    EPISODE 03 PAWS, PAWS, PAWS...
[04:23] ---
    Hey, what's wrong?
[04:26] ---
    Next, please.
[04:30] ---
    I wonder why cats always hiss at me.
[04:33] ---
    If kitties could talk, it would be great
    to hear the reason.
[04:38] ---
    His eyes are cat-like,
    but he's got a human body.

[04:41] ---
    I thought he was a monster cat.
[04:44] ---
    To be honest, I really do love cats,
[04:47] ---
    so when they hiss at me, it depresses me
    for at least three days.
[04:47] ---
    HISS!
[04:47] ---
    SAD
[04:51] ---
    So I'm a little wary of approaching cats.
[04:54] ---
    And for the last few years, I couldn't
    go near the cats that I've found.
[05:00] ---
    But this one
    seems to have gotten attached to me.
[05:02] ---
    So I think we can live together.
[05:06] ---
    I-It's not like I'm attached to you.
[05:09] ---
    If he's afraid to get near cats, then...
[05:13] ---
    I'll go tame him for you.
[05:15] ---
    He mustered his courage
    to approach one for me that day.

[05:19] ---
    Now I'm even more moved!
[05:21] ---
    Even if it was a tree!
[05:23] ---
    Wait, do you want to take in
    that cat, by any chance?
[05:27] ---
    Enough to cry over it?
[05:28] ---
    Uh, no, I just got
    some dust in my eye.
[05:31] ---
    Pets aren't allowed
    in my building anyway.
[05:35] ---
    FLUFFY VETERINARY HOSPITAL
[05:41] ---
    There's a home improvement store
    nearby that's still open.
[05:45] ---
    Looks like we can get
    cat food and bedding there, too.
[05:52] ---
    All right, then,
    I'll be waiting here with the kitty.
[05:54] ---
    Okay. I'll be right back.
[05:56] ---
    PET SUPPLY CORNER
[05:57] ---
    Let's see.
[06:00] ---
    Oh, it's over there.
[06:02] ---
    YUMMY CAT FOOD
[06:07] ---
    That will be 6,290 yen, please.
[06:11] ---
    All right. I got the stuff.
[06:13] ---
    Let's hurry and get back to the kitten.
[06:15] ---
    Thank you very much!
[06:17] ---
    Thank you.
[06:17] ---
    Wait. Excuse me, sir! Your purchases!
[06:22] ---
    Will Manager be back soon?
    What do you say, kitty?
[06:26] ---
    I-It's not like I'm waiting for him.
[06:32] ---
    Come to think of it,
    what should I name him?
[06:34] ---
    A name? That's a tough one, isn't it?
[06:38] ---
    I don't need a name.
    You're only going to abandon me again.

[06:43] ---
    I'll be getting out right here.
[06:47] ---
    Thanks for coming with me.
[06:48] ---
    All right, then, if you'll excuse me.
[06:50] ---
    See you, kitty!
[07:31] ---
    I'll be heading off to work.
    You won't be lonely, will you?
[07:35] ---
    As if I'd be lonely!
    Just get going already!

[07:38] ---
    I'll come home as soon as I can.
[07:48] ---
    Hey, it's Manager.
[07:49] ---
    Good morning!
[07:51] ---
    Good morning.
[07:55] ---
    You bought one for me, too.
    Thank you so much!
[07:58] ---
    It's fine. Coffee from specialty shops
    taste better, doesn't it?
[08:03] ---
    So how's the little kitty doing?
[08:05] ---
    He's fine. I want to give him
    a name as soon as possible.
[08:09] ---
    You're having a tough time, huh?
[08:09] ---
    SHIROKICHI SHIRONOSUKE
    SHIROTARO SHIROSUKE
    SHIRO SHIROU
    SHIROJIRO
    SHIROHIKO
[08:11] ---
    Yes. I can't seem to decide.
[08:14] ---
    Well, names are important.
[08:17] ---
    He's putting so much effort
    into thinking up a name for his cat.

[08:20] ---
    To be able to work under
    such a kind-hearted manager...

[08:25] ---
    Momose, should we go now?
[08:27] ---
    Uh, right!
[08:32] ---
    I'm home.
[08:37] ---
    Did Momose really want
    to take in this cat, after all?

[08:41] ---
    Enough to cry over it?
[08:43] ---
    GLOOMY GLOOMY
[08:43] ---
    I want to see the kitty!
[08:46] ---
    That's a lot of steam.
[08:53] ---
    I want to see the kitty!
[08:55] ---
    I want to see the kitty!
[08:58] ---
    I want to see the kitty!
[09:01] ---
    That's a long bath.
[09:04] ---
    He's like a boiled octopus.
[09:15] ---
    I want to see the kitty!
[09:17] ---
    I want to see the kitty!
[09:18] ---
    I want to see the kitty!
[09:20] ---
    I want to see the kitty!
[09:31] ---
    Momose?
[09:33] ---
    Good morning.
[09:34] ---
    Manager. Good morning.
[09:39] ---
    I'm giving you a key to my place.
[09:43] ---
    Come over anytime.
[09:50] ---
    Morning!
[09:51] ---
    They've rescheduled today's meeting.
[09:54] ---
    Did you hear what happened
    this morning in the train?
[09:57] ---
    You mean between Manager Shirosaki
    and Momose, right?
[09:59] ---
    Someone in Accounting said she saw it.
[10:01] ---
    Yes, that!
[10:03] ---
    Later on, the hot topic at the office was how
    Manager had proposed to me that morning.

[10:18] ---
    Morning.
[10:32] ---
    Sorry. I'll play with you
    when I get home, okay?
[10:38] ---
    Today's Sunday, huh?
[10:40] ---
    My new owner is goofy.
[10:46] ---
    My old owner was never home
    on Sundays, either.

[10:50] ---
    But this owner's home.
[10:53] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[10:55] ---
    Let's play as soon as I'm done
    hanging these.
[10:57] ---
    Huh! Not like I'm waiting or anything.
[11:00] ---
    I dropped some laundry.
[11:03] ---
    I'm going to go pick it up.
[11:07] ---
    Why are you hanging onto me?
[11:09] ---
    I'm coming right back, so don't be so...
[11:14] ---
    All right. Now we can play a lot.
[11:18] ---
    I-It's not like I especially want to play.
[11:19] ---
    LEAP LEAP LEAP
[11:24] ---
    Caressing massage.
[11:25] ---
    Not like I want you to caress me.
[11:29] ---
    All right, done!
[11:31] ---
    A stuffed animal.
[11:33] ---
    Not like you have to make it for me.
[11:37] ---
    Even after scratching, the shortened part
    of the cat's nails get sharper.
[11:41] ---
    I didn't know that.
[11:42] ---
    What?
[11:45] ---
    I'll buy you some nail clippers
    tomorrow, all right?
[11:48] ---
    I-It's not like I want them.
[11:57] ---
    You'll catch cold
    sleeping with your belly exposed.
[12:00] ---
    I never catch colds.
[12:08] ---
    About the report on that amusement park
    you scouted the other day...
[12:11] ---
    I'd like you to include photos of the rides
    that would show what kind of park it is.
[12:17] ---
    What kind of rides were there?
[12:19] ---
    Right. For example,
    which would you pick, Momose?
[12:25] ---
    All photos of the kitty!
[12:28] ---
    Like the one that left
    the greatest impression on you.
[12:31] ---
    Impression...
[12:33] ---
    Oh. This rollercoaster had
    an incredible dead-drop, didn't it?
[12:36] ---
    It packed a lot of punch, right?
[12:38] ---
    And speaking of impressions,
    this haunted house left one, too.
[12:41] ---
    Yeah, how scary was that?
[12:43] ---
    The scenery from the Ferris wheel
    was also gorgeous.
[12:45] ---
    Yes.
[12:46] ---
    And who knew that the merry-go-round
    had evolved so much?
[12:47] ---
    ALONE
[12:47] ---
    Alone.
[12:50] ---
    Welcome!
[12:52] ---
    Three guests!
    Please find a seat in the back!
[12:54] ---
    Manager, it seems like you and the kitty
    have gotten really close.
[12:58] ---
    The photos you showed me.
    There were so many of the kitty!
[13:02] ---
    Oh, have you decided on a name?
[13:05] ---
    I still can't think of one.
[13:07] ---
    Though I'd really like
    to come up with one soon.
[13:11] ---
    Why don't you name him after
    one of his favorite foods or toys?
[13:15] ---
    A toy, huh?
[13:19] ---
    H-He's deep in thought!
[13:22] ---
    Oh, uh, he doesn't
    hiss at you anymore, right?
[13:27] ---
    No. That hasn't happened to me
    since that day.
[13:31] ---
    Since that day?
[13:32] ---
    You mean there were kitties
    who didn't hiss at you?
[13:35] ---
    Back when I was a kid.
[13:38] ---
    Grandma! Grandma!
[13:43] ---
    What's the matter, Yu?
[13:45] ---
    Look what I found, Grandma!
    A cat that doesn't hiss!
[13:48] ---
    Dear boy, that's...
[13:50] ---
    A tanuki.
[13:51] ---
    Huh?
[13:52] ---
    That's what I was told,
    so I returned it to the mountains.
[13:55] ---
    He's been goofy since he was a child!
[13:57] ---
    Sure brings back memories.
[13:59] ---
    When I was a kid,
    I was always with my grandmother.
[14:02] ---
    So you were a grandma's boy!
[14:07] ---
    I learned a lot from my grandmother.
[14:09] ---
    About nature, and wild animals...
[14:13] ---
    Grandma, do I really have to send it back?
[14:16] ---
    Animals who were born in the wild
    should live in the wild.
[14:24] ---
    Then let's give him a name.
[14:26] ---
    That way, he might recognize you
    if you ever meet again.
[14:29] ---
    Okay.
[14:32] ---
    About everyday life...
[14:35] ---
    Look, I made you a tanuki!
[14:38] ---
    It's cute!
[14:40] ---
    I'm done, too.
[14:42] ---
    Well, what a cute tanuki!
[14:44] ---
    It's a cat.
[14:46] ---
    And also about life.
[14:49] ---
    What? Grandma,
    you're going to die one day?
[14:52] ---
    That's right. No matter how long I live,
    I won't make it past 100.
[14:58] ---
    Grandma, you're going to live to be 999!
[15:02] ---
    What am I, a monster?
[15:06] ---
    And one year ago,
    that grandmother of mine...
[15:11] ---
    O-One year ago?
[15:15] ---
    Today I'm going to show you
    how to make kiritanpo!

[15:18] ---
    GRANDMA'S BAG OF WISDOM CHANNEL
    HOW TO MAKE KIRITANPO
    100,000 VIEWS
[15:19] ---
    She started posting videos to MyTube.
[15:21] ---
    She's bursting with life!
[15:23] ---
    Instant follow!
[15:27] ---
    Your bath will soon be ready.
[15:30] ---
    I'm going to go take a bath.
[15:34] ---
    Just go take it for all I care.
[15:37] ---
    I hear that cats worry about their owners
    and follow them into the bath,
[15:43] ---
    but I guess mine is an exception.
[15:53] ---
    I forgot to plug it.
    I'll just leave for now.
[15:59] ---
    Ba-bump.
[16:01] ---
    Cats love playing tag with their owners.
[16:05] ---
    Want to play?
[16:11] ---
    I don't do that kind of thing.
[16:14] ---
    But I guess if you insist.
[16:19] ---
    I don't see him!
[16:23] ---
    Did he storm off in a rage?
[16:26] ---
    The truth is, I did want to play tag.
[16:28] ---
    But I was embarrassed.
[16:30] ---
    Come back!
[16:37] ---
    HIS SHIN HIT THE TABLE
[16:37] ---
    I totally smashed my shin.
[16:41] ---
    Little kitty, I'm heading out now.
[16:45] ---
    I'll come home as soon as I can.
[16:52] ---
    You're not lonely, are you?
[16:53] ---
    Of course I'm not lonely.
    Hurry up and go.

[17:02] ---
    I'm off, then.
[17:16] ---
    It's my owner's warmth.
[17:19] ---
    I forgot my bag.
[17:24] ---
    Adorable.
[17:27] ---
    My new owner is goofy.
[17:35] ---
    Good morning.
[17:36] ---
    Good morning.
[17:37] ---
    You're still struggling
    over a name, I see.
[17:41] ---
    SHIIRO
    SHIROKICHI CHURURURU

    FUWATA

[17:42] ---
    He's veering way off course.
[17:46] ---
    Cats sure are cute, aren't they?
[17:48] ---
    Want me to help you
    come up with one?
[17:50] ---
    Yes. Thanks.
[17:52] ---
    For starters, which one of these
    do you think is the best, Momose?
[17:56] ---
    O-One of those?
    Um, let's see, maybe Fuwata?
[17:56] ---
    Morning.
[17:57] ---
    I heard good things
    about your presentation yesterday.
[18:01] ---
    Dejected.
[18:01] ---
    DEJECTED
[18:04] ---
    No one has any interest in me.
[18:07] ---
    Not my subordinates...
[18:15] ---
    Not my ex-wife, who left me
    right after I bought our house.

[18:20] ---
    I'm home.
[18:21] ---
    But that's okay. After all, I have...
[18:30] ---
    Good boy, Me.
[18:32] ---
    This is Kumatte, which I bought online
    because I was so lonely post-divorce.

[18:38] ---
    Manager, do you have a minute?
[18:40] ---
    Sure.
[18:42] ---
    About this Fuzzy Zoo
    limited time campaign...
[18:46] ---

[18:48] ---
    A tanuki...
[18:51] ---
    Then let's give him a name.
[18:53] ---
    That way, he might recognize you
    if you ever meet again.
[18:58] ---
    A name?
[18:59] ---
    Because it's our tanuki, Yu.
    How about Yu-ba?
[19:05] ---
    Okay!
[19:10] ---
    Yu-ba, take care of yourself!
[19:19] ---
    The cat's name...
[19:20] ---
    Since it was you and me
    who found him...
[19:24] ---
    SHIROSAKI MOMOSE
    HAKUTOU
[19:25] ---
    Hakutou!
[19:26] ---
    Hakutou! I like it!
[19:29] ---
    ACHOO
[19:38] ---
    I'm home, Hakutou.
[19:47] ---
    I've decided on a name for you.
[19:51] ---
    Starting today, you're Hakutou.
[20:02] ---
    TOUSLE TOUSLE
[20:04] ---
    I don't even want a name.
[20:07] ---
    I can see that you like it, huh, Hakutou?
[20:10] ---
    No, I don't like it!
    Hakutou! Hakutou!

[20:11] ---
    HOORAY
[20:20] ---
    Hakutou.
[20:22] ---
    I-It's not like I was planning
    to lick your face.

[20:25] ---
    I'm going to try to make
    lots of time for you.
[20:30] ---
    So let's spend a lot of it together.
[20:39] ---
    These days, my owner
    never comes home at all.

[20:45] ---
    Maybe she thinks it's too much trouble
    to play with me and my toys, or pet me?

[20:55] ---
    Then she doesn't have to do any of that.
[21:03] ---
    I just want to be with you.
[21:11] ---
    Hakutou.
[21:18] ---
    Hakutou.
[21:24] ---
    I want to make you happy.
[21:28] ---
    Of course I'm already happy.
[21:33] ---
    You really are goofy.
[23:11] ---
    Are you a moron?
[23:12] ---
    That's part of your job, you idiot!
[23:16] ---
    I'm very sorry.
[23:17] ---
    Die! You goddamned idiot!
[23:19] ---
    Don't come to the office anymore!
[23:19] ---
    That's an abusive boss
    he's talking to, for sure.

[23:22] ---
    I don't know this guy, but I'm worried.
[23:25] ---
    - Momose...
    - Yes?
[23:27] ---
    ...is his name.
    He's new here, and...
[23:29] ---
    Hey, are you listening?
    You useless jerk!

[23:32] ---
    Can you not comprehend
    what a person's saying to you?

[23:37] ---
    What's up with these two?

[00:08] ---
    I was sick of my abusive boss,
    so I switched jobs.

[00:26] ---
    Hey!
[00:28] ---
    We met the other day.
[02:00] ---
    EPISODE 04 WANNA LIVE WITH ME?
[02:01] ---
    Are you a moron? Die
[02:04] ---
    The guy next to me
    is getting ripped a new one.

[02:08] ---
    I'm very sorry.
[02:09] ---
    Like apologizing would do any good!
[02:12] ---
    That's definitely an abusive boss
    he's talking to.

[02:15] ---
    I don't know this guy, but I'm worried.
[02:18] ---
    - Momose...
    - Yes?
[02:19] ---
    ...is his name.
    He's new here, and...
[02:21] ---
    Manager's on the phone with a client.
[02:24] ---
    Right. That's "momo" from "Momotaro,"
    and the "se" from "Setonaikai."
[02:26] ---
    Momotaro!
[02:28] ---
    He's even jotting down Momotaro!
[02:30] ---
    We both look forward
    to working with you.
[02:32] ---
    Right. Goodbye.
[02:38] ---
    Momose?
[02:40] ---
    I'm sorry!
[02:42] ---
    There's a thread on your shoulder,
    so I thought I'd remove it.
[02:44] ---
    I-I'm sorry!
[02:47] ---
    I glanced at your notes,
    so I thought I was going to get hit.
[02:51] ---
    It was my reflexes.
[02:54] ---
    I get it.
    Seriously, all bosses are alike.

[02:58] ---
    Oh, uh, I know that
    you'd never do that, Manager.
[03:02] ---
    I'm done with my sketch.
[03:06] ---
    DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT
    HAVE A MILLET DUMPLING AND CHEER UP OKAY!
[03:07] ---
    That's you as Momotaro.
[03:09] ---
    So cute!
[03:12] ---
    I feel so much better!
[03:14] ---
    What kind of boss is that?
[03:16] ---
    I wish he'd draw a Kintaro for me.
[03:19] ---
    Hey, are you listening?
    You useless jerk!

[03:21] ---
    Can you not comprehend
    what a person's saying to you?

[03:24] ---
    Oh, man.
    I want to use this as my wallpaper.

[03:28] ---
    M-Manager!
[03:30] ---
    Would it be all right if I took a picture?
[03:40] ---
    Thank you so much!
[03:44] ---
    So cute!
[03:45] ---
    What the hell are you laughing—
[03:48] ---
    I'm changing jobs.
[03:50] ---
    Excuse me.
[03:52] ---
    Can I get your business card?
[03:55] ---
    I'd like to work under you, too.
[03:57] ---
    He's hitting on my manager!
[04:02] ---
    Kinjo, I never thought
    you'd really switch to our company.
[04:06] ---
    I was envious of you for having such
    a wonderful manager, so I gave it my best shot.
[04:12] ---
    He even drew me a Kintaro
    on the back of his business card.
[04:16] ---
    COME WORK FOR US
    KIN: OKAY!
[04:17] ---
    Looking forward to working with you,
    starting today!
[04:21] ---
    This is Kinjo, who just got assigned
    to our department today.
[04:25] ---
    I'd like you all to look after him.
[04:26] ---
    AIGO KINJO (AGE 24)
[04:27] ---
    Nice to meet you!
[04:30] ---
    As for Kinjo's supervisor,
    I'll take on that role.
[04:33] ---
    So this is my new boss?
[04:36] ---
    I'm Aoyama, your section chief.
    I hope we'll work well together.
[04:38] ---
    Chief Aoyama.
[04:39] ---
    Chief Aoyama, his supervisor?
[04:42] ---
    That won't be easy.
[04:50] ---
    In this case, you can do this.
[04:52] ---
    Oh, I get it now!
[04:55] ---
    Kinjo, why don't you look at me,
    instead of the manager?
[04:59] ---
    Oh, sorry about that.
[05:01] ---
    No one will look at me...
[05:06] ---
    Since he got divorced recently,
    Chief Aoyama's been lonely.
[05:12] ---
    The female employees told me
    that he's needy and hard to deal with, but...

[05:18] ---
    I'll only have eyes for you
    from now on, Chief.
[05:20] ---
    Stare.
[05:21] ---
    Hey, a mole!
[05:24] ---
    Compared to my abusive boss,
    you're 500 million times easier to handle.

[05:29] ---
    All right, then, just add an illustration.
    Some kind of cute animal.
[05:33] ---
    Right!
[05:39] ---
    I won't let you defeat me.
[05:42] ---
    A cute animal...
[05:44] ---
    How about a tanuki?
    We had tanuki soba for lunch.
[05:48] ---
    Tanuki...
[05:52] ---
    Manager, take a look at this!
[05:54] ---
    Tanukis! They're really cute!
[05:57] ---
    Tanuki.
[06:00] ---
    He looked out the window!
[06:02] ---
    Shirosaki, there aren't any
    in the heart of the city. No tanukis!
[06:07] ---
    Also, this is the 36th floor.
[06:10] ---
    It's no use. I don't think I can win!
[06:13] ---
    He's cuter than a tanuki.
[06:18] ---
    Why did you switch jobs, Momose-senpai?
[06:22] ---
    Oh, I just started here recently myself,
    so no need to call me "senpai," or use honorifics.
[06:27] ---
    Yay! So Why did you switch jobs, Momose?
[06:31] ---
    Well, that would be...
[06:34] ---
    REMEMBERING WHY HE SWITCHED JOBS
[06:35] ---
    Oh, he's feeling hollow inside.
[06:38] ---
    Maybe I shouldn't have asked him that.
[06:40] ---
    LET ME CHANGE THE SUBJECT
[06:42] ---
    Come to think of it, my old boss
[06:44] ---
    always used to call me
    incessantly during my lunch break,
[06:47] ---
    and I could never eat in peace,
[06:50] ---
    so there were never any moments where
    I could take a leisurely coffee break like this.
[06:54] ---
    Not only that, but none of those calls
    were in any way urgent, either.
[06:59] ---
    But if I didn't answer,
    I'd get like 85 missed calls.
[07:03] ---
    Hey, sorry. Don't mind me.
[07:06] ---
    So Momose switched jobs because of
    power harassment, too, huh?

[07:09] ---
    I bet we can be good friends.
[07:10] ---
    My boss used to fill up my call log, too.
    I hear you.

[07:15] ---
    I'm feeling hollow inside too.
    We'll be hollow together.

[07:19] ---
    SCRATCH SCRATCH SCRATCH
[07:20] ---
    But then...
[07:22] ---
    He can't get his straw out!
[07:25] ---
    How freakin' cute is that?
[07:27] ---
    The manager healed me.
[07:31] ---
    Manager Shirosaki sure is a good guy.
    And he's goofy.
[07:35] ---
    Yeah. But when I think,
    "What if he starts to hate me?"
[07:39] ---
    I get all nervous, after all.
[07:42] ---
    Let's ask Manager
    to go drinking with us sometime.
[07:45] ---
    If you get drunk,
    you might not get nervous anymore.
[07:48] ---
    Wait, haven't you ever gone
    for a drink with him before?
[07:52] ---
    Just once.
[07:54] ---
    Back when I first started here.
[08:03] ---
    I had a good time.
[08:05] ---
    But since I was nervous,
    I couldn't get drunk.
[08:07] ---
    I mean, I've never gotten drunk
    at a drinking party with my bosses before.
[08:16] ---
    No one has any interest in me.
[08:22] ---
    I got divorced
    right after I bought a house.

[08:26] ---
    I worked my tail off to buy this house,
    so that I could create a happy home.

[08:32] ---
    As I had loans,
    I started working even harder.

[08:36] ---
    But then out of the blue, my wife...
[08:40] ---
    I've fallen in love with someone else.
[08:43] ---
    It was so lonely being by myself
    in this huge house.
[08:48] ---
    I'm sorry.
[08:52] ---
    She said that, and left me.
[08:55] ---
    And now there's just me in this huge house.
[08:59] ---
    I was so lonely that I bought
    tons of stuffed bears online.

[09:05] ---
    One big family.
[09:07] ---
    KUMATTECHAN JUICE
    HONEY-FLAVORED
[09:07] ---
    This bear is a character called Kumattechan.
[09:10] ---
    New product! Kumattechan Juice!
[09:14] ---
    I know nobody's
    going to buy my juice, anyway.

[09:17] ---
    He's a very needy bear.
[09:19] ---
    I'll go buy some tomorrow, okay?
[09:21] ---
    Yay!
[09:26] ---
    Momose! Morning!
[09:27] ---
    Hey, Kinjo. Morning.
[09:31] ---
    Where's Manager? You weren't
    on the same train this morning?
[09:35] ---
    He's going directly to see his client.
[09:38] ---
    He just texted me now.
[09:40] ---
    Why did he only text you? No fair!
[09:43] ---
    I'm gonna reply now.
    This signal takes forever.
[09:46] ---
    GOOD MORNING. TODAY I'LL BE GOING DIRECTLY TO SEE A CLIENT WITHOUT SHOWING UP TO WORK FIRST.
    
    GOOD MORNING. UNDERSTOOD.
[09:47] ---
    Talk about stiff!
[09:50] ---
    Isn't this how you should
    communicate with your boss?
[09:54] ---
    Well, I was the same way
    with my old boss.
[09:57] ---
    But I've been bombarding Manager
    with emojis and stickers.
[10:01] ---
    Stickers?
[10:02] ---
    Sure. And he sends stickers back to me.
[10:05] ---
    What? I've never
    gotten a sticker from Manager.
[10:10] ---
    I bet if you send him one,
    he'll send one back.
[10:12] ---
    What is this, high school girl talk?
[10:15] ---
    Sending my boss a sticker.
    That seems beyond me.
[10:24] ---
    Here. Sent it off for you.
[10:26] ---
    WITHOUT YOU, MANAGER...
    I'M A LONELY PUP
[10:31] ---
    FORGIVE ME-OW
[10:32] ---
    Hey, he answered!
[10:35] ---
    I got a sticker from my boss
    for the first time in my life.
[10:39] ---
    Huh? Another text.
[10:40] ---
    I'LL GET TO THE OFFICE FROM THE RAINBOW
[10:46] ---
    A fairytale arrival!
[10:48] ---
    Whoops, typo.
[10:49] ---
    I'll get to the office at two.
[10:53] ---
    I messed up the correction, too.
[10:54] ---
    I'LL GET TO THE OFFICE IN SOUP STOCK
[10:56] ---
    SIMMER SIMMER
[10:58] ---
    Manager's coming after some simmering!
[11:02] ---
    Right. Now you can be more casual
    when you text him.
[11:06] ---
    Kinjo, you're so nice.
[11:09] ---
    No one will ask me for my text ID.
[11:13] ---
    Chief!
[11:14] ---
    No one has any interest in me.
[11:17] ---
    I want to know what your text ID is.
    I also want to know your measurements!
[11:25] ---
    Looks like a fun workplace.
[11:26] ---
    I'm so jealous.
[11:29] ---
    Chief, I'm done with my work for the day.
[11:33] ---
    Is it all right if I leave on time?
[11:35] ---
    Sure!
[11:36] ---
    All right!
[11:38] ---
    I'm going to get a haircut!
[11:40] ---
    I trimmed off an inch yesterday myself.
[11:43] ---
    Not that anyone noticed.
[11:45] ---
    Ah, I don't know why,
    but my head feels light today.
[11:50] ---
    Huh? Where did they go?
[11:53] ---
    Is something the matter?
[11:55] ---
    I bought some computer glasses yesterday,
    but I've already lost them.
[11:59] ---
    They're on your forehead.
[12:03] ---
    That's how I'll get some attention
    from my subordinates.

[12:06] ---
    And while I'm at it, I can get them
    to notice my haircut.

[12:10] ---
    Kinjo, have you seen my...
[12:13] ---
    He's already gone.
[12:15] ---
    No one has any interest in me.
[12:19] ---
    Shirosaki, I like your glasses.
    You look good in them.
[12:23] ---
    Thank you very much.
[12:25] ---
    Actually, about these glasses...
[12:28] ---
    I copied the style of your glasses, Chief.
[12:31] ---
    I thought that maybe it would help me
    become competent like you.
[12:35] ---
    Shirosaki, wanna live with me?
[12:38] ---
    Uh, Chief?
[12:39] ---
    KUMATTECHAN JUICE
    HONEY-FLAVORED
[12:40] ---
    I spotted this
    at a convenience store just now.
[12:43] ---
    If I'm not mistaken,
    you're a fan of this bear, right?
[12:46] ---
    Please have this.
[12:47] ---
    Momose.
[12:49] ---
    Wanna live with me?
[12:52] ---
    Hey.
[12:54] ---
    I'm sorry I left without saying goodbye.
[12:57] ---
    I was in a rush to get to the salon.
[13:00] ---
    When I saw your haircut,
    it really made me want to get one, too!

[13:05] ---
    So he did notice that I'd gotten a haircut!
[13:07] ---
    WANNA LIVE WITH ME?
[13:07] ---
    Wanna live with me?
[13:08] ---
    NO THANKS, I'LL PASS LOL
[13:09] ---
    No thanks, I'll pass.
[13:10] ---
    BUT I'VE GOT 5 MILLION BUCKS
[13:10] ---
    But I've got 5 million bucks!
[13:13] ---
    I'LL LIVE WITH YOU
[13:13] ---
    I'll live with you!
[13:15] ---
    Work is fun!
[13:25] ---
    The presentation went well, didn't it?
[13:27] ---
    Yes. I think it's going
    to come together great.
[13:30] ---
    I'll let the office know
    that we'll head straight home.
[13:34] ---
    Chief, do you have any plans
    to meet up with someone later?
[13:38] ---
    I don't have any plans.
[13:40] ---
    Then do you want to go for a drink?
[13:44] ---
    And why don't we ask Manager
    and Momose while we're at it?
[13:47] ---
    JAPANESE BAR MOMOTARO
[13:51] ---
    I never had a good time going drinking with
    my boss, but I'm looking forward to tonight.
[13:56] ---
    Is Chief Aoyama still doing overtime?
[13:59] ---
    Yeah.
[14:00] ---
    When he notified the office about going home,
    he realized he still had some work to do.
[14:04] ---
    What about Manager?
[14:06] ---
    He said he had an errand to run first,
    and to go ahead and start without him.
[14:10] ---
    Wonder where he went?
[14:12] ---
    I hope you can get drunk tonight.
[14:15] ---
    Welcome!
[14:18] ---
    Good evening!
[14:19] ---
    Sorry I'm late.
[14:28] ---
    So you went to check on Hakutou?
[14:31] ---
    How did you know?
[14:33] ---
    There's a cat teaser
    in your breast pocket.
[14:37] ---
    Hakutou?
[14:39] ---
    That's the name of the cat
    who lives with me.
[14:43] ---
    Momose and I found him,
    so that's why he's named Hakutou.
[14:46] ---
    No fair, Momose!
[14:48] ---
    What will you have, Manager?
[14:51] ---
    I live with a giant stuffed bear.
[14:55] ---
    When did you get here?
[14:57] ---
    Cheers!
[15:04] ---
    A mustache!
[15:05] ---
    Manager, you've got a froth mustache!
    I want to take a picture!
[15:10] ---
    I wiped it off. Sorry.
[15:13] ---
    Even if the section chief has a mustache,
    no one will take any photos.
[15:17] ---
    I'm going to make this my wallpaper!
[15:23] ---
    What? You don't have a girlfriend, Momose?
[15:26] ---
    Until my first year of working,
[15:27] ---
    I was in a long distance relationship
    between Hokkaido and Tokyo,
[15:31] ---
    but my job took up all my time,
    so I couldn't stay in touch, and she dumped me.
[15:36] ---
    I just got dumped, too.
    We only dated for a week.
[15:40] ---
    A week?
[15:41] ---
    Seems like I was too attentive,
    and they thought it was annoying.
[15:45] ---
    Whenever I find someone who's my type,
    it seems like I go overboard.
[15:50] ---
    What kind of girl is your type?
[15:52] ---
    Looks don't matter for me.
    I like it when they're cute on the inside.
[15:56] ---
    As long as they're cute on the inside,
    I can go for younger or older, male or female.
[15:59] ---
    He just said something mind-blowing
    like it was nothing.

[16:03] ---
    Do you have a girlfriend, Manager?
[16:05] ---
    No, I don't.
[16:07] ---
    Shirosaki, didn't you once bring her powder
    foundation to the office instead of an ink pad?
[16:12] ---
    INK PAD
[16:17] ---
    Did you break up with that girlfriend?
[16:20] ---
    Ink pad. Now that you mention it,
    that did happen.
[16:24] ---
    She got really mad at me because
    she couldn't put on her makeup that morning.
[16:28] ---
    Don't tell me that's why she broke up...
[16:30] ---
    No. She cheated on me and I got dumped.
[16:36] ---
    But it was my fault.
[16:38] ---
    I don't have a lot to say,
    and I'm such a boring person.
[16:42] ---
    You're interesting, Manager!
[16:45] ---
    What made you realize
    that she was cheating?
[16:48] ---
    She called me by another man's name.
    Right into my ear.
[16:53] ---
    That's harsh!
[16:58] ---
    Manager seems really down!
[17:02] ---
    She was cheating on me
    with her ex-boyfriend.
[17:02] ---
    HE'S ACTUALLY JUST SLEEPY
[17:06] ---
    Ex-boyfriend...
[17:07] ---
    I... I...
[17:11] ---
    I'd never call you
    by my old boss's name, Manager!
[17:15] ---
    Momose...
[17:17] ---
    Manager Shirosaki!
[17:18] ---
    Momose...
[17:20] ---
    Manager Shirosaki!
[17:21] ---
    DRUNK
[17:21] ---
    Momose...
[17:22] ---
    Manager Shirosaki!
[17:23] ---
    Momose...
[17:24] ---
    - Manager Shirosaki!
    - Momose...
[17:24] ---
    ALSO DRUNK
[17:26] ---
    Manager Shirosaki!
[17:31] ---
    I mean, I've never gotten drunk
    at a drinking party with my bosses before.

[17:37] ---
    Momose, glad you were able to get drunk.
[17:42] ---
    Manager!
[17:44] ---
    Manager, the taxi's here.
[17:50] ---
    Little Hakutou's waiting at home for you.
[17:53] ---
    There's a coaster on his forehead!
[17:58] ---
    Hakutou. I'm home.
[17:58] ---
    PLASTIC BAG
[18:03] ---
    Manager, you're not home just yet.
[18:08] ---
    Oh, you're right.
[18:12] ---
    "I'm worried that you might not get home safely,
    so I'd like to take you home."

[18:15] ---
    Would it be rude to say that to your boss?
[18:19] ---
    Hakutou, I'm heading home now.
[18:24] ---
    I'd love to see Hakutou!
[18:28] ---
    Want to come over?
[18:31] ---
    Yes!
[18:35] ---
    No fair, Momose.
[18:37] ---
    No one wants
    to come see my bear, anyway.
[18:48] ---
    Hakutou?
[18:52] ---
    Oh, right. Last night...
[18:54] ---
    I took my hammered manager home...
[18:58] ---
    and then I fell asleep?
[19:01] ---
    I can't believe
    I crashed at my boss's place.

[19:06] ---
    My head is killing me.
[19:12] ---
    Just look at that bed head!
[19:16] ---
    Where's my ice pillow?
[19:25] ---
    Frozen udon!
[19:28] ---
    Uh, Manager?
[19:29] ---
    Good morning! S-S-S-Sorry, I...
[19:32] ---
    Huh? Momose?
[19:34] ---
    You only just noticed me now?
[19:37] ---
    Did you bring me home?
[19:40] ---
    Oh, well, I wanted to see
    Hakutou again, so...
[19:44] ---
    I'll be going home now.
    Thank you for having me!
[19:48] ---
    I'm really sorry that I fell asleep!
[19:50] ---
    Hakutou? Bye!
[20:01] ---
    How could I've fallen asleep?
    How rude is that?
[20:03] ---
    He might hate me now! And I never
    want to be hated by my boss again!
[20:07] ---
    He sure left in a huge rush.
[20:10] ---
    He should've just gone to work from here.
[20:13] ---
    TO MANAGER
    THIS DRINK WORKS ON HANGOVERS.
    PLEASE HAVE—
[20:14] ---
    So he fell asleep while he was writing this note.
[20:18] ---
    I'll thank him properly by text.
[20:22] ---
    Oh, sorry.
    You want your breakfast, right?
[20:27] ---
    MUNCH MUNCH
[20:28] ---
    Is it good?
[20:30] ---
    Not sharing!
[20:32] ---
    Aww, is that for me?
[20:34] ---
    My paw slipped.
[20:37] ---
    Both you and Momose sure are good kids.
[20:41] ---
    Oh, right. I need to text Momose.
[20:44] ---
    MOMOSE
[20:44] ---
    Wait, I'm on a call?
[20:46] ---
    Hello? Momose?
[20:49] ---
    Yes.
[20:50] ---
    Am I the one who called you,
    by any chance?

[20:53] ---
    Yes.
[20:54] ---
    Sorry. My phone was in my pocket,
    and I dialed you by mistake.

[20:58] ---
    You probably heard all that, huh?
[21:01] ---
    Yes. I'm sorry.
[21:03] ---
    No, well, anyway, I guess that's it.
[21:06] ---
    Thanks a lot. I'll see you later.
[21:09] ---
    Right!
[21:13] ---
    Really?
[21:15] ---
    You slept over at Manager's place?
[21:17] ---
    Yeah. I fell asleep on his sofa, and then
    I stopped by my place to get changed.
[21:22] ---
    Lucky you!
[21:28] ---
    I was sick of my abusive boss,
    so I switched jobs.

[21:31] ---
    Oh, Manager? Good morning.
[21:34] ---
    Good morning!
[21:36] ---
    Good morning.
[21:42] ---
    Oh, I forgot to press the button.
[21:46] ---
    My new boss is goofy. And...
[21:50] ---
    No one ever sleeps over at my place.
[21:55] ---
    And he's also needy!
[21:58] ---
    Work is fun!
[23:37] ---
    This is crazy huge!

[00:03] ---
    An overnight business trip?
[00:05] ---
    Right. We've received a request for an ad
    from a hot spring resort inn.
[00:10] ---
    Can you come with me
    to scout the location? For one night?
[00:16] ---
    Yes!
[00:17] ---
    KUMATTE LAND
[00:17] ---
    What a coincidence.
[00:19] ---
    Kinjo and I will be at Kumatte Land
    on business that very same day.
[00:24] ---
    Although it will be a day trip.
[00:26] ---
    Is that right?
[00:27] ---
    No fair!
[00:28] ---
    Going on an overnight business trip
    with the manager? I'm so jealous, Momose!
[00:33] ---
    Nobody wants to go
    on a business trip with me.
[00:36] ---
    I'm looking forward
    to our business trip, too, Chief!

    EPISODE 05
    HEART EYES!
[02:20] ---
    I'LL RESEARCH IT AND LET YOU KNOW
    THANK YOU VERY MUCH
    THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK
[02:21] ---
    Let's meet tomorrow
    at Omiya Station at 7:40 am.

[02:21] ---
    ROUTE INFORMATION
[02:25] ---
    I'm sending you the route
    from the closest station to you.

[02:32] ---
    It's Omiya Station in Kyoto,
    not Saitama.
[02:35] ---
    So far away!
[02:39] ---
    Sorry. Made a mistake. It's this one.
[02:48] ---
    Can't wait to go on this business trip.
[02:59] ---
    Make sure you eat right.
[03:05] ---
    Shirosaki, here.
[03:08] ---
    What is it?
[03:10] ---
    He's a precious member of my family,
[03:13] ---
    but to make sure that Hakutou
    doesn't get lonely while you're away...

[03:20] ---
    Kumattechan will be here tomorrow,
    so you won't be lonely.
[03:25] ---
    TWO HOURS LATER...
[03:35] ---
    Since we can't play tomorrow,
    let's play a lot... today... okay?
[03:41] ---
    It's okay, go get some sleep.
[03:46] ---
    Sorry to leave you... all alone.
[03:51] ---
    Hey, it's no big deal for me.
[04:06] ---
    Today I'm going on my first business trip
    with my boss since I switched jobs.

[04:11] ---
    When I went on a business trip
    with my old boss,

[04:13] ---
    I was with him all day and night
    and it was hell.

[04:17] ---
    Just the memory of that
    makes my stomach...

[04:22] ---
    Our company's...
[04:24] ---
    Yes?
[04:25] ---
    Senior Managing Director and Managing
    Director look alike. Did you know that?
[04:29] ---
    Uh, yes. I nearly mistook one
    for the other once.
[04:33] ---
    Well, a lot of old guys look alike, right?
[04:35] ---
    People have mistaken me
    for someone else, too.

[04:38] ---
    Actually, yesterday, I saw someone
    who looked like the Managing Director.
[04:44] ---
    I hesitated for a second,
[04:46] ---
    but I decided that he had to be
    the Managing Director,
[04:49] ---
    and said, "Good day, Director."
[04:56] ---
    He was a complete stranger.
[04:57] ---
    A complete stranger!
[05:01] ---
    I almost burst out laughing.
[05:03] ---
    Sorry to tell you such a weird story.
[05:06] ---
    You seemed to be down for some reason,
    so I thought it might be a diversion.
[05:09] ---
    Manager.
[05:15] ---
    Hey, my stomachache's gone.
[05:22] ---
    Today I'm going on my first business trip
    with my boss since I switched jobs.

[05:29] ---
    There's nothing around here.
[05:38] ---
    Why did they build it in the sticks?
[05:42] ---
    KUMATTE LAND
[05:42] ---
    Kumatte Land.
[05:46] ---
    What? This is your first visit
    to Kumatte Land, Chief?
[05:50] ---
    Yeah. I've always wanted to come,
    but I didn't have anyone to come with.
[05:57] ---
    Kinjo, there's a leaf on your head.
[06:01] ---
    Hey, you're right.
    I've caught the manager's goofiness.
[06:05] ---
    What? You wish you could've come
    to Kumatte Land with Shirosaki?
[06:10] ---
    No one wants to come with me...
[06:12] ---
    I didn't say that.
[06:14] ---
    Oh, boy.
[06:16] ---
    It's too far out in the boondocks,
    so no one ever comes.
[06:19] ---
    No one will pay attention to me...
[06:23] ---
    Or so I thought, but someone's coming!
[06:26] ---
    Pay attention to me!
[06:28] ---
    Kumattechan!
[06:30] ---
    It's really him!
[06:33] ---
    I'm not popular enough
    to warrant an imposter, anyway!
[06:36] ---
    Nice to meet you. My name is Aoyama.
[06:40] ---
    Pardon me! We've been waiting for you.
[06:43] ---
    Thank you for coming
    all this way to see us.
[06:48] ---
    I'm Mori from PR.
[06:49] ---
    Nice to meet you.
[06:51] ---
    I don't have a business card,
    so no one's paying any attention to me!
[06:57] ---
    Pay attention to me!
[06:58] ---
    Now, now, don't be like that.
[07:00] ---
    Love you.
[07:02] ---
    I love you, too. Wanna get married?
[07:06] ---
    I managed to remarry. Not that anyone
    will celebrate that with me.
[07:10] ---
    Here's a gift for you two.
    Please take it.
[07:14] ---
    Why don't I show you around the park?
[07:17] ---
    Box lunches, coffee, snacks?
    Can I get you anything?
[07:20] ---
    Momose, it might be a good idea
    to have lunch now.
[07:23] ---
    Uh, okay!
    What about you, Manager?
[07:26] ---
    I brought some oolong tea
    and a rice ball box lunch.
[07:30] ---
    Excuse me?
[07:32] ---
    Thank you very much.
[07:34] ---
    I copied him and bought oolong tea
    and a rice ball box lunch.

[07:40] ---
    Did you make that yourself, Manager?
    Hey, octopus sausages!
[07:43] ---
    Yes.
[07:44] ---
    I don't always make lunch
    when I go on business trips.
[07:49] ---
    For the last few years, I've always traveled
    to regional sites alone.
[07:54] ---
    Today, I thought,
    "Momose will be there, too,"
[07:57] ---
    and it felt like a field trip
    so I made a box lunch.
[08:00] ---
    Feels like a field trip because I'm here?
[08:03] ---
    Momose will be there.
    Happy, happy!

[08:06] ---
    I thought I'd make you lunch, too,
    but it might trouble you, so I didn't.
[08:11] ---
    It's no trouble at all, though.
[08:14] ---
    Let's give it our all on this trip.
[08:17] ---
    Right, right. When you enjoy the small things,
    it drives you to do your best work.

[08:22] ---
    Well, not that there's anything
    I particularly enjoy.

[08:27] ---
    If only I could find something so fun
    that'd make me spit out my tea,

[08:30] ---
    it would give me the strength
    to do my best, too.

[08:35] ---
    HAKUOUDOU
[08:36] ---
    It's an ad by Hakuoudou.
    Wow, they're using an idol group.
[08:42] ---
    Do you like those idols?
[08:44] ---
    Uh, no. When I was in college, I wanted
    to join them, and sent in an application.
[08:50] ---
    But I got rejected.
[08:53] ---
    You wanted to join them?
    This idol group?
[08:57] ---
    An idol group?
    I'd get rejected for sure!
[09:01] ---
    Oh, you mean Hakuoudou.
[09:04] ---
    Instead of oolong tea,
    I brought noodle soup base.
[09:09] ---
    I messed up because I was too sleepy.
[09:11] ---
    I'm totally gonna crush it at work!
[09:16] ---
    As you can see,
    it was built in a way too natural setting,
[09:20] ---
    and so people haven't come as expected.
[09:23] ---
    They never came... and never came.
[09:27] ---
    Careless mistake.
[09:28] ---
    And so we're hoping
    for your company's help.
[09:32] ---
    Please leave it to us.
[09:34] ---
    We'll do everything we can to create an ad
    that will convey how appealing this park is.
[09:38] ---
    Fully-equipped!
[09:40] ---
    In order to create a good ad that rings true,
    we should get some first-hand experience.
[09:44] ---
    Heart eyes!
[09:46] ---
    I want to see the young man
    with the center part fully-equipped, too!
[09:51] ---
    You wouldn't want to become fully-equipped
    with an old guy with glasses and a mole, right?
[09:58] ---
    MUNCH MUNCH
[09:58] ---
    HONEY POPCORN
[10:02] ---
    These attractions are of high quality, huh?
[10:05] ---
    So what if it's a zero-minute wait!
[10:07] ---
    This Ferris wheel is adorable!
[10:09] ---
    Zero minutes for this one, too!
[10:11] ---
    KUMATTE LAND
[10:11] ---
    This giant maze is cool!
[10:13] ---
    Needless to say, zero minutes!
[10:15] ---
    There are tons of other attractions, too!
[10:17] ---
    All zero minutes!
[10:19] ---
    No shortage of gifts, either, eh?
[10:21] ---
    Yeah, we've got a huge stockpile.
[10:23] ---
    KUMATTE HOUSE
[10:23] ---
    There are even lodgings!
[10:26] ---
    And all of them are vacant!
[10:33] ---
    I know you're all
    going to leave me behind.
[10:37] ---
    We'll come again.
[10:38] ---
    When? Tomorrow?
[10:44] ---
    I'm so sad, I might start shedding
    honey pancakes from my eyes!
[10:48] ---
    Pancakes sound yummy.
[10:57] ---
    There's always a downpour in my heart.
[11:00] ---
    Let's start running, Chief!
[11:09] ---
    We got pretty soaked, didn't we?
[11:11] ---
    Yes, we did.
[11:13] ---
    Kinjo, you wrapped your jacket
    around your briefcase?
[11:17] ---
    Yes. There's something precious
    that I don't want to get wet.
[11:20] ---
    Oh, good. It's dry.
[11:23] ---
    Something precious?
    Could it be a gift for Shirosaki?

[11:27] ---
    Oh, man, there's nowhere
    to buy clothes around here.
[11:29] ---
    I'd like to get changed.
[11:36] ---
    I do have these T-shirts
    that I just bought at Kumatte Land.
[11:39] ---
    Yay! I'm twinning bear T-shirts
    with my boss!
[11:46] ---
    Looks like they suspended all train
    and bus services because of this rain.
[11:49] ---
    I'd die if I had to stay here all night.
[11:53] ---
    Hello? Oh, Ms. Mori from PR?
[11:56] ---
    Yes, we're at the bus stop.
[11:59] ---
    What?
[12:00] ---
    If you can't get home,
    you're welcome to stay at Kumatte House.

[12:05] ---
    Yay! You came today instead of tomorrow!
[12:08] ---
    Pay attention to me!
[12:12] ---
    NAKANOJO STATION
[12:16] ---
    Wow.
[12:19] ---
    What an impressive-looking inn!
[12:21] ---
    We'll be staying here tonight.
[12:29] ---
    What a great view.
[12:31] ---
    I don't know how long it's been
    since I last stayed at a hot spring.

[12:33] ---
    You must be exhausted after your long trip,
[12:36] ---
    so please put off your meeting until tomorrow,
    so you can take it easy today.
[12:40] ---
    Thank you very much.
[12:42] ---
    In order to accurately portray
    the splendor of this inn,
[12:45] ---
    we'll be sure
    to report on this site thoroughly.
[12:54] ---
    Mind if I check on Hakutou for a second?
[12:57] ---
    Not at all. Is that a livestream?
[12:59] ---
    Yes.
[13:05] ---
    Kumattechan?
[13:06] ---
    Hey, Hakutou!
[13:09] ---
    Have you been playing with Kumattechan?
[13:12] ---
    I'd never play with someone like him!
[13:15] ---
    Looks like he was playing with him.
[13:17] ---
    Yes.
[13:19] ---
    Wait for me, okay?
    I'll be home tomorrow.

[13:22] ---
    I am not waiting!
[13:29] ---
    Kumatte House is a sweet log cabin
    that gives off the scent of honey.
[13:33] ---
    KUMATTE HOUSE
[13:34] ---
    For dinner, there's honey fondue, honey pasta,
    honey pancakes, honey juice...
[13:40] ---
    By the time they leave,
    everyone's a little sick of honey!
[13:44] ---
    Inside your room, the décor is all
    Kumattechan furniture and knick-knacks!
[13:48] ---
    Even the bed is covered with Kumattechans,
    which should give everyone nightmares.
[13:52] ---
    We even offer a service
    for Kumattechan to visit your room!
[13:56] ---
    Honey tea and life coaching
    are on the house!
[13:59] ---
    Once your dinner is ready, we'll send them
    to your respective rooms.
[14:03] ---
    Thank you very much.
    That will be a big help.
[14:07] ---
    All right, why don't we take
    a quick tour of the premises?
[14:10] ---
    Right!
[14:12] ---
    Just look at all the gifts on sale!
[14:14] ---
    Wouldn't you love to have
    some milk after your bath?
[14:18] ---
    An outdoor hot spring!
    I'd love to soak in it over and over!
[14:24] ---
    I'm making such a big commotion
    when I'm here for work.

[14:27] ---
    Even if I've never had
[14:29] ---
    the chance to come to a hot spring because
    I was tired from my boss's power harassment.

[14:35] ---
    All right, let's soak in that hot spring.
[14:37] ---
    R-Right!
[14:40] ---
    GENTLEMEN
[14:43] ---
    Manager looked appalled.
[14:49] ---
    - Momose?
    - Yes?
[14:50] ---
    Can I ask you a weird question?
[14:52] ---
    I'm going to get yelled at.
[14:55] ---
    Did I shampoo my hair? I was so deep
    in thought, I can't tell anymore.
[15:00] ---
    Yes, you did! I know what you mean!
[15:05] ---
    What a great soak, huh? Momose...
[15:09] ---
    Manager's acting like
    his usual self, I guess?

[15:14] ---
    What a great soak that was, huh?
[15:15] ---
    Yeah, it was!
[15:29] ---
    So he's mad after all
    because I was so hyper?

[15:32] ---
    Manager!
[15:38] ---
    Whoa, is that you, Momose?
[15:40] ---
    I thought you were someone
    who looked just like you.
[15:45] ---
    It was because my hair and clothing
    were different than usual.

[15:53] ---
    I'm going to get the chief a gift.
[15:55] ---
    And something for everyone at the office.
[15:57] ---
    Then I will, too.
    I'll get a different kind of snack.
[16:00] ---
    I'll take this one.
[16:01] ---
    Uh, sir, that one's...
[16:04] ---
    Oh, I'm sorry.
[16:07] ---
    Is something the matter?
[16:10] ---
    The gift I picked out
    for the chief was a sample.
[16:13] ---
    He'd break his tooth if he bit on that, right?
[16:17] ---
    Local snack assortment for cats?
    Who knew they'd have something like this?

[16:18] ---
    LOCAL CHURURU
    LIMITED LOCAL AREA VERSION
[16:23] ---
    Do you know what you're getting, Momose?
[16:24] ---
    Oh, I'm getting the chief salty egg konnyaku,
    and bean paste buns for everyone.
[16:30] ---
    And for Hakutou...
[16:34] ---
    I-I can't get too excited.
[16:37] ---
    Wow!
[16:40] ---
    Dinner is delicious, isn't it?
[16:44] ---
    I almost made another commotion!
[16:53] ---
    It's only at a hot spring
    that you can take a bath over and over.
[16:57] ---
    Yeah, I guess so.
[16:59] ---
    Hey, they've laid out futons for us.
[17:01] ---
    Another service exclusive to inns.
[17:04] ---
    Is it okay if I open the window?
[17:06] ---
    Yes. We're all warm
    from the hot spring, aren't we?
[17:10] ---
    The night breeze feels so good.
[17:15] ---
    Listen, Momose...
[17:17] ---
    You know how you got all excited
    when we arrived here?
[17:20] ---
    I'm so sorry!
[17:21] ---
    That reminded me of something important.
[17:29] ---
    If we can somehow incorporate
    your excitement into our ad,
[17:33] ---
    I'm sure it'll make a lot of people
    want to come to this inn.
[17:38] ---
    So thanks.
[17:43] ---
    I was chiding myself for having fun
    on the job, so to hear you say that...
[17:50] ---
    I think that enjoying work is a good thing.
[17:53] ---
    Knowing that you're in an environment
    where you can enjoy your job makes me happy.
[17:59] ---
    Manager.
[18:02] ---
    I enjoyed myself today, too.
[18:09] ---
    KUMATTE HOUSE
[18:17] ---
    Oh, crap. I've caught a cold.
[18:23] ---
    I'll go to the front desk
    to ask for some medicine.
[18:27] ---
    I feel awful.
[18:29] ---
    Chief's in the next room, right?
    I'll ask him for help. Wait...
[18:34] ---
    At my old job, when I came down
    with a fever after a lot of overtime...

[18:39] ---
    I'm gonna die.
[18:41] ---
    When I told my boss,
    he said I was careless about my health,

[18:45] ---
    and he yelled at me
    to snap out of it somehow.

[18:48] ---
    More than the fact that I got yelled at,
    or the fact that I couldn't take time off...

[18:52] ---
    My own boss showed no sign of worry
    by asking if I was even okay.

[18:57] ---
    For some reason,
    that was more of a shock to me.

[19:02] ---
    Since then, I haven't been able
    to tell anyone that I'm not feeling well.

[19:09] ---
    I'm cold. I'm gonna die.
    I want to go home to Okinawa.
[19:14] ---
    Kinjo? I just heard a loud crash.
[19:17] ---
    Oh, it's open.
[19:19] ---
    Wait, what's wrong?
[19:20] ---
    Hey, your face is all red!
    Do you have a fever?
[19:22] ---
    No, it's just...
[19:24] ---
    Are you okay?
[19:26] ---
    Are you hurt anywhere?
    Do you want to go to the hospital?
[19:31] ---
    Kinjo!
[19:36] ---
    I'm sorry I caused you so much trouble.
    I'm feeling much better now.
[19:40] ---
    No, you should take time off
    from work until you get better.
[19:43] ---
    If you have any gifts to give,
    I'll be happy to pass them out.
[19:46] ---
    I didn't buy any gifts for anybody.
[19:48] ---
    What? Then what was the precious thing
    you were protecting from the rain?
[19:52] ---
    Oh.
[19:53] ---
    That was this notebook.
[19:55] ---
    Since it's full of notes about
    all the things you taught me, Chief.
[19:59] ---
    You're always spotting things
    we should showcase about the sponsor
[19:59] ---
    WHY DON'T WE USE THE FACT THAT
    NO ONE'S HERE TO OUR ADVANTAGE?
[20:02] ---
    WHAT ARE YOU, A GENIUS?
[20:02] ---
    through your own unique viewpoint,
    so there's so much I can learn from you.
[20:07] ---
    I see.
[20:11] ---
    Good for you for being praised
    like that. Because a moment ago...
[20:15] ---
    I might just be a needy, pain-in-the-butt type
    of incompetent boss.

[20:19] ---
    I want to stop being needy.
[20:20] ---
    You were consulting me about life, right?
[20:24] ---
    Your neediness is entertaining, Chief.
[20:26] ---
    And besides, if you're not being needy,
    then it wouldn't be you.
[20:31] ---
    What?
[20:31] ---
    Are you saying that without my neediness,
    I'd only have my glasses and mole?
[20:36] ---
    I never said that.
[20:43] ---
    Looks like the rain let up.
    You can see the stars.
[20:49] ---
    Hey, a shooting star.
[20:53] ---
    Let me recover soon,
[20:55] ---
    so that I can create an ad with the chief
    that will make Kumatte Land rock.
[21:00] ---
    Your reward will be five tons of honey!
[21:03] ---
    This old guy's blood sugar levels
    are gonna spike, huh?
[21:06] ---
    No one's gonna eat
    five tons of honey, anyway.
[21:08] ---
    Don't worry, I'll eat at least two.
[21:11] ---
    Hey, a shooting star.
[21:16] ---
    Did you make a wish?
[21:17] ---
    Yes. I asked to be able
    to create a good ad.
[21:21] ---
    I asked to be able to create
    a good ad with you, too.
[21:27] ---
    Also...
[21:29] ---
    To make sure that Hakutou isn't too lonely.
[21:34] ---
    What's wrong?
[21:36] ---
    I forgot to ask for one more thing.
[21:38] ---
    What is it?
[21:40] ---
    Well, when I go to bed wearing a yukata,
[21:43] ---
    by morning, I've only got
    my belt on, for some reason,
[21:46] ---
    so I should've asked for that
    not to happen tomorrow morning.
[23:30] ---
    My new boss...
[23:36] ---
    turned out to be goofy
    even on business trips!

[00:01] ---
    My abusive boss damaged my spirit
    and my health, so I changed jobs.

[00:08] ---
    SEVEN-SPICE BLEND
[00:10] ---
    AH
[00:11] ---
    EH?
[00:13] ---
    Those are the toothpicks.
[00:16] ---
    My new boss is goofy.
[00:20] ---
    Momose?
[00:21] ---
    Yes?
[00:23] ---
    He's the type who twirls around so hard,
    he actually goes full circle.

[00:32] ---
    Momose.
[00:34] ---
    M-Mr. Kurono.
[00:39] ---
    Thought you'd escape me,
    huh, Momose?
[00:53] ---
    I thought I just heard Momose's voice.
[00:57] ---
    No, I was just hearing things.
[01:03] ---
    The new chocolate product that I got
    from my client yesterday.
[01:07] ---
    I'll get Momose's opinion, too.
[01:15] ---
    No chocolate for you, all right?
    It would poison you.
[01:20] ---
    Is that right?
[01:23] ---
    Stay like that for a second.
[01:28] ---
    Are you taking my picture?
[01:30] ---
    Stay like that.
[01:32] ---
    You don't have to take my picture.
[01:38] ---
    Go off to work already.
[01:40] ---
    My new boss is goofy.
[01:43] ---
    But...
[01:46] ---
    To this day, I'm still...
[01:48] ---
    not over the trauma
    of dealing with my old boss.

[03:24] ---
    EPISODE 06
    EX-BOYFRIEND? EX-BOYFRIEND?? EX-BOYFRIEND???
[03:33] ---
    Thought you'd escape me,
    huh, Momose?
[03:37] ---
    Hey, is that the proposal
    you pushed through for the first time?
[03:42] ---
    Kinjo!
[03:44] ---
    Yeah. The client approved it for use,
    but they just told me
[03:48] ---
    that they want additional ideas.
[03:51] ---
    So you're struggling
    to come up with those ideas?
[03:53] ---
    Uh, no, not really.
[04:00] ---
    Oh, um...
[04:02] ---
    Hm? What's up?
[04:04] ---
    Uh, actually, nothing. Sorry.
    I'm going to go take a break.
[04:16] ---
    Did something happen
    between you and Manager?
[04:18] ---
    I don't think it's anything, but...
[04:20] ---
    THANK YOU VERY MUCH (READ)
[04:20] ---
    TODAY
    
    I'D LIKE TO CONSULT YOU
    ABOUT THE ADDITIONAL PROPOSALS.
    
    AS YOUR MEETING SEEMS TO BE
    RUNNING LATE, I'LL BE GOING
    TO LUNCH NOW.
[04:20] ---
    Manager hasn't been reading
    my texts all morning.
[04:25] ---
    When Mr. Kurono's in a bad mood...
[04:28] ---
    When I leave you on unread
    it's because you're annoying me!
[04:31] ---
    Don't talk to me! Try to figure out
    why you pissed me off!
[04:36] ---
    Even though I know that Manager
    would never say anything like that.

[04:39] ---
    Why hasn't he read my texts?
[04:42] ---
    Could it be that he hates me?
[04:44] ---
    Did I mess up somehow, maybe?
[04:47] ---
    He was in a meeting all morning,
    so I bet he just didn't notice them.
[04:51] ---
    Let me try texting him.
[05:01] ---
    Manager's smartphone?
[05:01] ---
    TWO NEW MESSAGES
[05:03] ---
    What's going on here?
[05:04] ---
    All right, quiz time!
[05:06] ---
    Manager's smartphone
    is in the fridge. But why?
[05:14] ---
    It overheated after he recharged it,
    so he's trying to cool it off, or something?
[05:17] ---
    Manager has a cold today,
    so he's got a fever?
[05:20] ---
    It's for cooling off his forehead?
[05:22] ---
    Or it could be a secret lifehack.
    Cooling it gives you better battery life?
[05:26] ---
    I didn't know about that lifehack!
[05:27] ---
    Sorry. That was just random.
[05:29] ---
    Momose?
[05:30] ---
    Oh, uh, Manager!
[05:32] ---
    Is something the matter?
[05:33] ---
    You were acting a little strange before.
[05:35] ---
    No, no, it's your smartphone, Manager.
[05:38] ---
    Smartphone?
[05:39] ---
    My smartphone's right here.
[05:44] ---
    So you put your smartphone in the fridge
    instead of that chocolate bar, right?
[05:50] ---
    After that, the three of us ate
    that slightly-melted chocolate bar.
[05:57] ---
    Aren't you going to get
    your smartphone fixed, Manager?
[06:00] ---
    Well, there are certain reasons
    why I can't change it.
[06:04] ---
    Hey, you're on Enstagram too, Manager?
[06:07] ---
    Uh, yeah. I just started the other day.
[06:11] ---
    It's a journal of Hakutou's growth.
[06:13] ---
    This is today's Hakutou.
[06:15] ---
    Wow! I'm going to follow you!
[06:17] ---
    Me, too!
[06:19] ---
    So you're on Enstagram too, Momose?
[06:21] ---
    Well, not that I ever post
    my own photos. I just browse.
[06:25] ---
    No one will follow me.
[06:28] ---
    Chief!
[06:32] ---
    FOLLOWER
[06:33] ---
    Number of followers... One.
[06:35] ---
    Oh, that's me.
[06:37] ---
    Follower Number 1 Shirosaki.
[06:38] ---
    - Then I'll be your Number 2!
    - And I'll be Number 3!
[06:53] ---
    It's time I really forget
    about my old boss.
[07:02] ---
    Drinking honey wine with Kumattechan
    while eating honey mascarpone.
[07:08] ---
    Kinjo had pork cutlets for lunch, huh?
[07:12] ---
    And Manager?
[07:23] ---
    Seems like Chief Aoyama and the Manager's
    meeting is running late again,
[07:27] ---
    so want to go to lunch together?
[07:28] ---
    Sure.
[07:31] ---
    Let's eat on that bench over there.
[07:35] ---
    Want to sit on my handkerchief?
[07:37] ---
    N-No, I'm good.
[07:38] ---
    Isn't that what you do on dates?
[07:40] ---
    I was just kidding.
[07:42] ---
    I still can't get a handle
    on Kinjo's personality.

[07:46] ---
    This will be a good opportunity
    to get to know him better.

[07:50] ---
    Hey! That cloud
    looks just like Kumattechan!
[07:55] ---
    I'm putting it up on Enstagram.
[07:59] ---
    And... posted.
[08:01] ---
    I already got a like from the chief.
    Are they done with their meeting?
[08:05] ---
    You've got all kinds of people on your
    Enstagram, huh? Are they your friends?
[08:10] ---
    Well, a lot of them are old guys I met in bars,
    and a whole bunch of strangers.
[08:15] ---
    Oh, and also my ex-girlfriend.
[08:17] ---
    I never look back
    at my old posts, so I totally forgot.
[08:20] ---
    You think I should delete them?
[08:23] ---
    This is another ex of mine.
[08:24] ---
    I texted her too much
    and she dumped me after three days.
[08:28] ---
    This one's my ex-boyfriend.
[08:30] ---
    Ex-boyfriend?
[08:30] ---
    EX-BOYFRIEND?
[08:31] ---
    This is my mom.
[08:31] ---
    Ex-boyfriend??
[08:31] ---
    EX-BOYFRIEND?
[08:33] ---
    And this is the family dog.
[08:34] ---
    Ex-boyfriend???
[08:35] ---
    Hey, and this is...
    Are you still with me?
[08:38] ---
    Oh, sorry! So who is that?
[08:41] ---
    My abusive boss at my old company.
[08:44] ---
    What? You two look so close.
[08:47] ---
    This guy thinks you have to be strict
    so your subordinates will grow.
[08:51] ---
    He thought the carrot-and-stick
    approach is crucial.
[08:54] ---
    He was my over-the-top, gung-ho,
    anachronistic abusive boss.
[08:58] ---
    This photo was taken during carrot time.
[09:00] ---
    When he got drunk, he'd lecture me
    forever, but I wanted to go home.
[09:04] ---
    True, if you look close,
    his eyes are lifeless.

[09:09] ---
    I felt that his style of training
    was wrong,
[09:12] ---
    but maybe it was my fault for
    not producing great results like him.
[09:17] ---
    If only I tried harder, maybe
    my boss would change, too.
[09:20] ---
    All I wanted was for him
    to acknowledge me.
[09:23] ---
    I told myself that, and gave it my best shot.
[09:26] ---
    But his verbal abuse started escalating,
    and then he started hitting me.
[09:31] ---
    That habit he had of ruffling my hair
    like this whenever he praised me...
[09:36] ---
    I started thinking
    that I was gonna get punched.
[09:38] ---
    "I can't take it anymore."
    Just when that thought crossed my mind...
[09:42] ---
    I met you and Manager,
    and decided to change jobs.
[09:47] ---
    The day I left that company,
[09:50] ---
    when I told him
    my honest reason for quitting,
[09:54] ---
    he didn't say a word.
[09:59] ---
    I've lost all touch with him since then,
[10:02] ---
    and he's stopped reacting
    to my Enstagram posts
[10:04] ---
    so I have no idea what he's thinking.
[10:07] ---
    But if my quitting
[10:09] ---
    turned him into a boss who can have empathy
    for his subordinates, that would make me happy.
[10:14] ---
    Your old boss seems like
    he was competent at his job,
[10:18] ---
    so it's just a feeling I'm getting,
    but I bet he's turned over a new leaf.
[10:22] ---
    Momose, you're too nice!
    Love you.
[10:26] ---
    My old boss would never turn over a new leaf,
    even if the universe was turned upside down.

[10:33] ---
    You know, I was worried what my old boss
    would think if he saw my posts,
[10:38] ---
    so I've never uploaded any pictures
    of the people at this company.
[10:42] ---
    There's no way he's looking
    at my Enstagram feed, right?
[10:47] ---
    So anyway...
[10:48] ---
    - Let's post one!
    - Okay!
[10:54] ---
    Chief! When did you get here?
[10:56] ---
    You, too, Manager!
[10:59] ---
    Since you were deep in conversation,
[11:00] ---
    we were waiting
    for the right moment to join you.
[11:02] ---
    While eating rice balls.
[11:04] ---
    Tight fit.
[11:06] ---
    Want half of my popsicle?
[11:07] ---
    Are you sure?
[11:09] ---
    I know! Let's take a picture
    of the four of us for Enstagram!
[11:12] ---
    Twinkle!
[11:17] ---
    All right, posted!
[11:18] ---
    Hey, liked already!
[11:20] ---
    Was that you again, Chief?
[11:24] ---
    It's from Mr. Haijima.
[11:25] ---
    Who's that?
[11:27] ---
    My old boss.
[11:29] ---
    A celebratory like...
[11:31] ---
    HAIJIMA AND OTHERS LIKED THIS.
[11:41] ---
    Good thing you didn't spread that hankie
    under my butt, right?

[11:54] ---
    About the additional proposals...
[11:57] ---
    Here's a proposal geared towards having
    young couples going on dates here.
[12:01] ---
    And this one puts
    more geeky information on display,
[12:04] ---
    such as the ecology of marine life,
    in order to target your core customers.
[12:11] ---
    I like both proposals.
[12:13] ---
    But while I know
    it might be asking too much...
[12:16] ---
    We'd be happiest with a proposal
    that doesn't have a specific target,
[12:20] ---
    and will make everyone
    who comes here happy.
[12:23] ---
    I see. A proposal showing how everyone, from
    grownups to children, can have a good time.
[12:30] ---
    From grownups to children...
[12:32] ---
    Do you have any ideas
    for a proposal like that?
[12:36] ---
    I know. A quiz...
[12:39] ---
    What about a quiz based on
    all the creatures in this aquarium?
[12:43] ---
    A quiz?
[12:45] ---
    Right. If we change the difficulty level,
[12:47] ---
    everyone from grownups to children
    will have fun with it, right?
[12:53] ---
    That's a great idea!
[12:55] ---
    Thank you very much.
[12:58] ---
    NIKORI
[13:02] ---
    That was a good response.
[13:04] ---
    It's thanks to your support, Manager.
[13:06] ---
    No, it's probably because
    you're giving it your all.
[13:09] ---
    Manager!
[13:11] ---
    Should we call it a day
    and go straight home?
[13:18] ---
    I hope we can create an ad
    that those kids will enjoy, too.
[13:23] ---
    You're making such a racket!
    Pipe down!
[13:26] ---
    How many times do I have to tell you?
[13:28] ---
    What's wrong, Momose?
[13:30] ---
    N-Nothing.
    My old boss really hated kids, so...
[13:37] ---
    Yay! I'm first!
[13:39] ---
    No fair!
[13:40] ---
    You're not supposed to run!
[13:45] ---
    You need to shut the hell up,
    you miserable twerps!
[13:50] ---
    I just realized that at my old company,
[13:51] ---
    creating kid-friendly ads
    never even crossed my mind.
[13:56] ---
    Oh, I'm sorry for going off like that.
[13:59] ---
    Let me text the office to let them know
    we're heading straight home.
[14:01] ---
    Hey, you! Stop that right now!
[14:15] ---
    Sorry to make you come with me
    to a place like this.
[14:19] ---
    It's fine. Aside from that,
    are you all right, Momose?
[14:23] ---
    Yes. I was just thinking about
    getting a new smartphone anyway.
[14:27] ---
    I'm not talking about your smartphone.
[14:32] ---
    I'm fine, really.
[14:35] ---
    That teacher was yelling so loud
    that it startled me, that's all.
[14:41] ---
    Not good.
[14:42] ---
    I don't want him to think
    that I'm a pathetic loser

[14:45] ---
    who can't get over the trauma
    of an old boss.

[14:50] ---
    I'm fine!
[14:56] ---
    OCTOBER 3
[14:57] ---
    Hey, Momose,
    you have a new smartphone!
[15:00] ---
    Yeah.
[15:01] ---
    Lucky you! That's the latest model.
[15:04] ---
    I also upgraded my phone
    the other day, but no one's noticed.
[15:08] ---
    I know that nobody has any interest
    in my phone—
[15:11] ---
    Chief! Your smartphone's cool, too!
[15:13] ---
    Next time I upgrade,
    I'll get the same model as you!
[15:16] ---
    Really? The same as mine?
    Wanna live with me?
[15:20] ---
    I'm gonna pass on living with you!
[15:22] ---
    Excuse me, Manager.
[15:23] ---
    I've thought up some questions for the quiz
    we talked about yesterday.
[15:27] ---
    Like what?
[15:28] ---
    It has a beak, is a good swimmer,
    walks upright,
[15:32] ---
    and lives in the aquarium. What is it?
[15:38] ---
    A kappa?
[15:42] ---
    Kappa. In the aquarium, right?
[15:45] ---
    Oh, a penguin?
[15:47] ---
    After I switched jobs,
    I got a great new boss,

[15:51] ---
    and I was entrusted
    with work that's worth doing.

[15:54] ---
    Kinjo, who also switched jobs
    because of power harassment

[15:57] ---
    is starting to get over
    what happened in the past.

[16:01] ---
    But I'm the only one.
    When am I ever going to...

[16:11] ---
    Looks like the additional proposals
    for the aquarium are going to go well, too.
[16:15] ---
    Yes!
[16:17] ---
    I'm sorry. It's my phone.
[16:19] ---
    Go ahead and take the call.
[16:21] ---
    MR. KURONO
[16:21] ---
    FORMER BOSS
[16:25] ---
    But how? I thought I blocked him.
[16:29] ---
    Did changing my phone
    disable the block?

[16:33] ---
    HUMAN RESOURCES
[16:33] ---
    Is it all right if I block
    my direct supervisor after I've resigned?
[16:38] ---
    What? Oh, sure.
[16:41] ---
    MR. KURONO
[16:41] ---
    They've assigned someone else to call me
    if they need to ask about work.

[16:45] ---
    So he's definitely calling me
    to complain about my quitting.

[16:50] ---
    I mean, for me to get his call
    as soon as the block was removed...

[16:53] ---
    Just how many times
    has he been calling till now?
[17:00] ---
    My stomach is killing me.
[17:04] ---
    Are you all right? Should I go buy
    some stomach medicine?
[17:07] ---
    I'm sorry. I'll be fine.
[17:09] ---
    For now, let's go sit on that bench.
[17:12] ---
    Oh, my briefcase.
[17:14] ---
    S-Sorry!
[17:16] ---
    Huh? Oh.
[17:25] ---
    Just another ten steps. You can do it.
[17:27] ---
    He's so kind!
[17:29] ---
    He led me to the bench by hand.
[17:37] ---
    My stomach feels a little better now.
[17:41] ---
    I'm getting another call from him.
[17:50] ---
    I'm sorry.
[17:51] ---
    It's all right.
    I'm worried, so I'm taking you home.
[18:14] ---
    The sunset was beautiful.
[18:18] ---
    That was out of the blue.
    I thought it might cheer you up.
[18:24] ---
    You did cheer me up!
[18:26] ---
    I'm glad.
[18:30] ---
    I got these cracks on my smartphone
    the day you started at our company.
[18:35] ---
    Huh? You did?
[18:37] ---
    Yeah. There was a lot going on.
[18:41] ---
    When I went to get your medicine,
[18:43] ---
    I was in such a panic, I dropped it.
[18:49] ---
    I was going to get the screen fixed,
    but the more time went on...
[18:54] ---
    I realized that you'd switched jobs
    having sustained as many scars as this phone.
[19:00] ---
    And so I started seeing it
    more and more...
[19:04] ---
    as a mini Momose.
[19:07] ---
    I'm in pain!
[19:10] ---
    And then it hit me that I wanted
    to take care of both this mini-Momose,
[19:15] ---
    and the real you so that
    you wouldn't get any more scars.
[19:20] ---
    Manager.
[19:23] ---
    That's why I'm not changing my phone.
[19:25] ---
    This is all pretty heavy, isn't it? Sorry.
[19:29] ---
    No, you really cheered me up.
[19:32] ---
    And I think I can muster the courage
    to confront my scars.
[19:36] ---
    I have Manager on my side.
    I have nothing to fear!

[19:40] ---
    Not even Mr. Kurono's call!
[19:42] ---
    Manager? Driver?
    Is it all right if I make a call?
[19:46] ---
    - Yeah.
    - Go right ahead!
[19:49] ---
    MR. KURONO
    CALLING...
[19:50] ---
    Momose, I can't believe
    you quit, damn it!

[19:53] ---
    He picked up on the first ring!
[19:54] ---
    Without thanking me for all I did
    for you, no less! You mocking me?

[19:59] ---
    Thank him? But I did.
[20:01] ---
    You're quitting?
[20:02] ---
    Thank you for looking after me
    for so long.
[20:04] ---
    If you quit, I'll beat the crap out of you!
[20:06] ---
    Not that he was listening...
[20:08] ---
    Listen, you! Don't think you can escape!
[20:11] ---
    Useless losers like you are the same
    no matter where they go!

[20:14] ---
    Even if you change jobs,
    the same thing will happen.

[20:16] ---
    Your boss will only see you
    as a useless, pain in the—

[20:18] ---
    I don't think that at all.
[20:20] ---
    Momose is competent,
    and I value him as my subordinate.
[20:23] ---
    Manager.
[20:25] ---
    Sorry. I couldn't help it.
[20:27] ---
    Who's that next to you?
[20:28] ---
    I'm Momose's boss, Shirosaki.
[20:31] ---
    He says you're competent?
    What a total moron of a boss!

[20:35] ---
    Manager, a moron?
[20:38] ---
    Mr. Kurono.
[20:41] ---
    I'd like to belatedly express my gratitude.
[20:44] ---
    Because you were the worst
    possible boss to me, Mr. Kurono,
[20:48] ---
    it led me to meeting Manager Shirosaki,
    the best boss in the world!
[20:52] ---
    Thank you very much!
[20:53] ---
    MR. KURONO
[20:53] ---
    Damn you, Momose! Don't think
    you could get away with this!

[20:57] ---
    You just wait!
    I know where you live, you know!

[21:00] ---
    I'm gonna head over to your place
    right now, so—

[21:09] ---
    Right before I hung up on him, he was screaming
    that he was heading over to my place.
[21:14] ---
    I'm going to move right now.
[21:16] ---
    But I don't have the money to move.
[21:19] ---
    Then...
[21:21] ---
    Momose. Wanna move in with me?
    Starting today.
[21:25] ---
    PERSON #1 WHO BECAME SLIGHTLY UNHINGED
    DUE TO THE FORMER BOSS'S CALL
[21:27] ---
    No, no, I couldn't impose on you like that.
[21:30] ---
    Are you sure it's okay?
[21:31] ---
    PERSON #2 WHO BECAME SLIGHTLY UNHINGED
    DUE TO THE FORMER BOSS'S CALL
[21:34] ---
    I'll be happy to help you
    transport your stuff!
[21:36] ---
    PERSON #3 WHO BECAME SLIGHTLY UNHINGED
    DUE TO THE FORMER BOSS'S CALL
[21:39] ---
    What should we do about the move-in soba?
[21:40] ---
    I'll make soba! I've got a soba-making kit!
[21:43] ---
    Then I'll deep-fry the tempura!
[21:45] ---
    For dessert, we'll have millet dumplings!
[21:46] ---
    Millet dumplings! Like Momotaro!
[21:47] ---
    Thanks to that call from my old boss,
    we all became slightly unhinged.

[23:25] ---
    Momose? The curry's done.
[23:27] ---
    I'll be right there.
[23:29] ---
    What's the matter?
[23:31] ---
    I forgot to cook the rice.
[23:34] ---
    This is how my life as Manager's roommate
    began all of a sudden.

[00:04] ---
    My abusive boss damaged my spirit
    and my health, so I moved.

[00:27] ---
    Oh, that's right! Yesterday...
[00:29] ---
    MR. KURONO
[00:29] ---
    Damn you, Momose! Don't think
    you could get away with this!

[00:33] ---
    You just wait!
    I know where you live, you know!

[00:36] ---
    I'm gonna head over to your place
    right now, so—

[00:39] ---
    I'm going to move right now.
[00:41] ---
    But I don't have the money to move.
[00:43] ---
    Wanna move in with me?
    Starting today.
[00:46] ---
    That wasn't a dream.
[00:48] ---
    This really is Manager's home.
[01:04] ---
    Good morning!
[01:06] ---
    Morning, Momose.
    You're already awake?
[01:10] ---
    Uh, Manager.
[01:12] ---
    Huh? Is something the matter?
[01:15] ---
    Are you really sure about this?
[01:18] ---
    We were all a little unhinged yesterday,
    and brought my stuff over.
[01:25] ---
    Momose, do you need these slacks?
[01:27] ---
    No, I don't!
[01:28] ---
    Then I'll take them!
[01:30] ---
    Be my guest!
[01:34] ---
    I know what he said, but I don't think
    Mr. Kurono would really come to my house,
[01:39] ---
    so I don't want to trouble you
    any more than I already have.
[01:42] ---
    You're not troubling me at all.
[01:45] ---
    I happen to have an extra room, so...
[01:48] ---
    My older brother was living here,
    but he's overseas now, on business.
[01:52] ---
    So you were living with your brother, then.
[01:54] ---
    Yeah. But he won't be back any time soon,
    so you're more than welcome.
[01:59] ---
    You can stay as long as you like.
[02:01] ---
    Manager.
[02:03] ---
    Thank you very much!
[02:05] ---
    I'll work hard so I can save up
    enough money to move!
[02:08] ---
    Oh, I'll save money
    by making my own lunches!
[02:15] ---
    Right.
[03:52] ---
    EPISODE 07
    THE SHOCKING TRUTH...!!
[03:56] ---
    Is that a homemade lunch,
    Momose?
[03:59] ---
    Do you have a girlfriend now?
[04:01] ---
    No, no, I just thought
    I'd save up so I can move.
[04:05] ---
    You're moving? I want to move, too!
[04:09] ---
    Lately, my neighbors have been
    making such a racket.
[04:15] ---
    Wait, is that the same lunch
    as Manager's?
[04:17] ---
    Because Manager and I made them
    together this morning.
[04:20] ---
    Huh?
[04:21] ---
    The thing is, a lot went down, and now
    I'm staying at Manager's place as a houseguest.
[04:25] ---
    Huh? Is that true, Shirosaki?
[04:28] ---
    Yes.
[04:29] ---
    Are you serious? No fair!
[04:31] ---
    I wanna live with you, too!
[04:40] ---
    The flavor...
[04:42] ---
    Sorry. Too salty?
[04:43] ---
    No, no. I never had time
    the past few years to cook.
[04:48] ---
    Mainly because of
    the power harassment.

[04:50] ---
    I was always going to convenience stores,
[04:52] ---
    so I'm thrilled to have
    delicious home-cooked meals!
[04:54] ---
    I wanna eat Manager's
    home-cooked meals, too!
[04:58] ---
    No one wants to eat
    my home-cooked meals, anyway.
[05:02] ---
    I wanna have yours, too, Chief!
[05:13] ---
    Are you going to be living here?
[05:16] ---
    I'm so happy
    to get to live with you, too, Hakutou!
[05:21] ---
    W-Well, not like it makes me happy!
[05:27] ---
    Are you done unpacking?
[05:29] ---
    Yes. I'll help you make dinner.
[05:33] ---
    Thanks. Okay, then,
    could you get me that rice there?
[05:37] ---
    Sure!
[05:38] ---
    MADE IN AKITA
    AKITA KOMACHI
[05:40] ---
    My family made this rice.
[05:43] ---
    So you come from a family
    of rice farmers?
[05:46] ---
    Yeah.
[05:48] ---
    The way he washes the rice
    is so professional!
[05:51] ---
    He's the son of rice farmers,
    so no wonder!
[05:55] ---
    He's gazing intently at the rice
    he just washed.

[05:59] ---
    Wonder what he's doing that for?
[06:03] ---
    I'm not sure how many cups I washed.
[06:06] ---
    That would be three!
[06:15] ---
    Something's missing.
[06:17] ---
    I think it's good the way it is.
[06:20] ---
    No. After all you've been through,
    I want to give you something better to eat.
[06:25] ---
    Manager!
[06:28] ---
    I got it! Two more shakes of salt!
[06:31] ---
    Such detail! Like a pro!
[06:33] ---
    SHAKE SHAKE
[06:36] ---
    Wait, the lid's still on!
[06:41] ---
    Mm. Now it's perfect.
[06:43] ---
    And now it's perfect!
[06:48] ---
    And now, take a look at the video!
[06:53] ---
    KINJO
[06:54] ---
    From Kinjo?
[06:55] ---
    Hello! Momose?
[06:59] ---
    Kinjo? What's up?
[07:00] ---
    ROWDY ROWDY
[07:01] ---
    My neighbors are having
    a barbecue on their balcony,
[07:05] ---
    and it's so noisy, I can't sleep.
    So right now I'm having a drink.
[07:08] ---
    A barbecue on their balcony?
[07:10] ---
    I know, right?
    What are you up to, Momose?

[07:14] ---
    Oh, I was just watching TV.
[07:16] ---
    Momose... Hakutou... dinner time...
[07:24] ---
    We already ate.
[07:26] ---
    Wow! So you really are living
    at Manager's place!

[07:30] ---
    You're with him 24/7? That's no fair!
[07:35] ---
    - Oh, come on!
    - What a racket.

[07:37] ---
    I'm so envious!
    I wanna live there, too!

[07:38] ---
    I can play with Hakutou everyday, too.
[07:42] ---
    You stop that!
[07:45] ---
    Come on, stop it.
[07:50] ---
    Hey, Momose.
    No homemade lunch today?
[07:53] ---
    We're going to see a client now,
    so today we're eating out.
[07:58] ---
    No one has any interest
    in my home-cooked lunches, anyway.
[08:03] ---
    I'd be interested to see
    your home-cooked lunch, Chief!
[08:08] ---
    What? I'd like to see it, too!
[08:15] ---
    I made one for you, too, Kinjo.
[08:18] ---
    Wow!
[08:22] ---
    It's pretty hard-core.
[08:24] ---
    I wonder how many hours
    it took to make that?

[08:27] ---
    I got up at four to make these!
[08:29] ---
    So extra!
[08:44] ---
    Sorry, Hakutou.
[08:47] ---
    What's wrong, Momose?
[08:49] ---
    Oh, good morning, Manager.
[08:52] ---
    Hakutou left all this trash on my pillow.
[08:52] ---
    CRUMPLED UP
     ALUMINUM FOIL
[08:52] ---
    USED TO
     STOP BREAD
[08:52] ---
    PLASTIC BOTTLE CAP
[08:56] ---
    I pet him so much, he must've thought
    I was annoying and now he might hate me.
[09:00] ---
    Oh, that's not trash.
[09:03] ---
    They're Hakutou's treasures.
[09:07] ---
    Treasures?
[09:11] ---
    I-It's not like they're presents or anything.
[09:19] ---
    Great that it's a sunny day today, right?
[09:21] ---
    Yeah. It's a good day for laundry.
[09:27] ---
    Those flowers... It's the ones
    I gave him as a gift a while ago.

[09:34] ---
    This is my thanks for always
    showing me the ropes here.
[09:36] ---
    If you don't want them, sorry!
[09:43] ---
    He's watering them, giving them sunlight,
    and taking such good care of them.

[09:48] ---
    That's why I don't have
    the heart to tell him...

[09:51] ---
    Seems like there are
    a few more now.
[09:54] ---
    ...that they're artificial.
[10:01] ---
    I've been meaning to say...
[10:03] ---
    This pink shirt. The color is so gentle
    and it's so stylish.
[10:08] ---
    And you really look good in it.
[10:10] ---
    Oh, that?
[10:13] ---
    It used to be white,
    but I washed it with a red T-shirt.
[10:17] ---
    And it turned pink.
[10:19] ---
    The shocking truth!
[10:28] ---
    Guess it's time to wash
    this stuffed animal, too?
[10:33] ---
    You have to hand-wash these
    homemade stuffed animals, like this.
[10:37] ---
    I see.
[10:40] ---
    Manager!
[10:52] ---
    What's wrong, Momose?
[10:54] ---
    Oh, it's just that I haven't felt
    this peaceful in a long time.
[11:00] ---
    I think that
    I can tell you all about it now.
[11:05] ---
    I've been trying to hide the fact that
    I'm still traumatized after all this time.
[11:11] ---
    But...
[11:13] ---
    I was thinking that I should
    talk to you about it some time.
[11:19] ---
    About my former boss, Mr. Kurono.
[11:24] ---
    When I first started working there...
[11:26] ---
    even if he did talk rough to me,
[11:28] ---
    I thought it was because
    I was incompetent,
[11:30] ---
    and I was desperate to shape up.
[11:34] ---
    But it wasn't as if Mr. Kurono
    was saying all those things for my sake.
[11:41] ---
    By the time I realized that it was
    power harassment, it was too late,
[11:46] ---
    and mentally, I was a mess,
    and I even got an ulcer.
[11:51] ---
    So my mind wasn't in a place where
    I could do a decent job at work.
[11:58] ---
    And then the unjust power harassment
    started getting harsher and harsher.
[12:06] ---
    You'll feel calmer if you're enveloped.
[12:08] ---
    I'm sorry. You probably don't want
    to hear this kind of story.
[12:13] ---
    No, I'm really happy that you can
    talk about it of your own accord now.
[12:19] ---
    I want to hear more
    of what you have to say, Momose.
[12:24] ---
    Do you really?
[12:27] ---
    It's seems funny,
    looking back on it now,
[12:30] ---
    but when we were out on a sales call,
[12:32] ---
    he nearly fell tripping over a rock,
    and he blamed me for that, too.
[12:38] ---
    At the time, I couldn't think at all anymore.
[12:44] ---
    Come on, cheer up.
[12:47] ---
    Hakutou gave me his fish toy!
[12:51] ---
    I was finally able to talk about
    what I'd been holding inside myself for so long.

[12:56] ---
    It felt like some of the weight
    had been lifted from my mind.

[13:06] ---
    We should just head straight home, huh?
[13:08] ---
    Do you want to stop for a drink or two?
[13:12] ---
    No, on second thought, I think I'll pass.
[13:15] ---
    You've got Momose waiting for you,
    so you should go home as soon as you can.
[13:21] ---
    Kinjo, is there anything
    I can help you with?
[13:24] ---
    Thanks! But I'll be fine.
    I just have a little more to do.
[13:28] ---
    Okay. Then I'll be heading out.
[13:30] ---
    Good work!
[13:34] ---
    I know, maybe I'll stop by my apartment.
[13:38] ---
    It'd be good to have
    more clothes to change into.

[13:41] ---
    And I should check my mail.
[13:43] ---
    I'LL BE STOPPING BY MY APARTMENT
    TO PICK UP SOME STUFF
    BEFORE HEADING HOME.
[13:50] ---
    What if Mr. Kurono really is there?
[13:53] ---
    And if he isn't there, what if
    I find traces of him having been there?

[14:03] ---
    No, it's all good.
[14:05] ---
    I can't be cowering from him forever!
[14:07] ---
    Right!
[14:37] ---
    No way, right?
[14:43] ---
    It's fine.
[14:46] ---
    Calm down. Calm down.
[15:07] ---
    M-Manager!
[15:10] ---
    Hey.
[15:11] ---
    What are you doing here?
[15:13] ---
    I came because I was worried.
[15:15] ---
    Didn't you see my message?
[15:19] ---
    I didn't get any messages from you.
[15:26] ---
    I sent it to Chief by mistake.
[15:33] ---
    I'M WORRIED, SO I'M COMING TOO
[15:34] ---
    What? You're coming here?
[15:35] ---
    I need to apologize to Chief.
[15:38] ---
    SORRY, CHIEF.
    I SENT THAT BY MISTAKE.
[15:40] ---
    NOOO
[15:42] ---
    Sorry I surprised you.
[15:45] ---
    No, I'm all right.
[15:47] ---
    I'm really happy that you came.
[15:51] ---
    Are you sure
    that's all you need to bring back?
[15:54] ---
    Yes. This is all I need.
[15:58] ---
    Hey, I know!
[16:05] ---
    Now we can go to the bigger supermarket
    in the next town over!
[16:09] ---
    We sure can. Okay, why don't we go
    to a far-off supermarket today?
[16:13] ---
    I mean, it's a nice day.
[16:15] ---
    Is it okay if I pump up my tires?
[16:17] ---
    Sure!
[16:19] ---
    When did these get so flat?
[16:23] ---
    What? The wheels are really rusty, too.
[16:29] ---
    Okay.
[16:34] ---
    What's the matter?
[16:36] ---
    This isn't my bike after all.
[16:43] ---
    This is good, don't you think?
[16:45] ---
    Let's get some.
[16:47] ---
    Yeah.
[16:47] ---
    UP TO 5 PER PERSON
[16:49] ---
    Manager, how many?
[16:51] ---
    Hm? I'll be 34 this year.
[16:54] ---
    Oh, 34!
[16:56] ---
    Yeah. I'm starting to get stiff shoulders.
[17:00] ---
    When we got home,
    I gave him a heck of a massage.

[17:07] ---
    Not enough snacks, huh?
[17:09] ---
    I don't have enough, either.
[17:12] ---
    Hold on, Hakutou.
[17:19] ---
    Gimme that!
[17:21] ---
    Calm down, Hakutou.
[17:25] ---
    All right, why don't I boil some edamame.
[17:29] ---
    I boiled too much.
[17:31] ---
    Should we wrap up half
    and keep them in the freezer?
[17:34] ---
    Good idea.
[17:38] ---
    SCRATCH SCRATCH SCRATCH SCRATCH
[17:46] ---
    PORTION TO EAT
[17:47] ---
    I thought I'd never find it.
[17:51] ---
    All right, let's eat.
[17:53] ---
    Right.
[17:55] ---
    Is there any point in wrapping that?
[17:56] ---
    WRAP
[17:56] ---
    SIEVE
[18:00] ---
    Want to watch something on TV?
[18:02] ---
    You can go ahead and watch what you want.
    I'm going to take a bath.
[18:06] ---
    THE SCARIEST STORIES IN THE WORLD
    2-HOUR SPECIAL!
    SHOWING UP IN THE BATH...
[18:08] ---
    I'm gonna watch this.
[18:10] ---
    THE SCARIEST STORIES IN THE WORLD
[18:28] ---
    THE SCARIEST STORIES
    IN THE WORLD
[18:31] ---
    This looks great.
[18:33] ---
    SQUEEZE
[18:33] ---
    That's right, Manager
    doesn't like scary things.

[18:37] ---
    If he sees this after
    coming back from his shower...

[18:41] ---
    So close!
[18:42] ---
    I'm scared,
    but I want to know what happens next.
[18:45] ---
    And now I can't go in the shower.
[18:53] ---
    So how's it going? Living with Manager?
[18:56] ---
    It's so much fun. But...
[18:59] ---
    When I get my winter bonus,
    I'll have enough to move,
[19:02] ---
    so I need to find a new place by then.
[19:05] ---
    Why don't you just
    buy a house together and live in it?
[19:08] ---
    While I'm all alone in the house
    that I bought for two people to live in.
[19:13] ---
    So much space... so much space...
[19:15] ---
    I'd like to live with you, too, Chief.
[19:18] ---
    Really?
[19:20] ---
    Wanna live with me?
    Should we buy matching pajamas?
[19:23] ---
    No need to buy pajamas.
[19:28] ---
    The air's starting to get really dry, huh?
[19:31] ---
    Why don't we go buy
    a humidifier this Sunday?
[19:35] ---
    No, actually, I happened to bring one back
    from my parents' house.
[19:40] ---
    If you're not using this anymore, can I have it?
[19:43] ---
    Uh, sure.
[19:48] ---
    This isn't a humidifier...
[19:51] ---
    It's my mother's facial steamer.
[19:53] ---
    Our skin feels so smooth
    and jiggly now, huh?
[19:56] ---
    Now that it's jiggly, I suddenly
    want to eat some pudding.
[20:00] ---
    Want to go buy some?
[20:03] ---
    Since we started living together, we've been
    going to the convenience store at night a lot.

[20:09] ---
    The other day, I saw a white kitten
    on this road, but when I came near,
[20:13] ---
    it was a work glove
    that had been dropped.
[20:16] ---
    Talking about trivial things while feeling
    the night air on our faces.

[20:21] ---
    For some reason,
    I like spending time like that.

[20:27] ---
    Want to get some chocolate, too?
[20:28] ---
    MUSHROOM-SHAPE
[20:28] ---
    BAMBOO-SHAPE
[20:31] ---
    It's hard to decide, huh?
[20:33] ---
    Yeah.
[20:35] ---
    WHITE PEACH
[20:36] ---
    White peach flavor!
[20:41] ---
    Can I check out some magazines?
[20:43] ---
    Sure. There's a magazine I've been
    meaning to look through, too.
[20:50] ---
    MOVE-IN READY!
    AFFORDABLE RENTING
[20:58] ---
    Nothing beats eating a steamed pork bun
    on the road at night.
[21:01] ---
    Totally!
[21:03] ---
    Were there any good finds
    in that magazine?
[21:06] ---
    Uh, yes. I did find something
    kind of promising.
[21:13] ---
    When you find a new place, we won't
    get to spend time like this anymore.
[21:17] ---
    That makes me a little sad.
[21:20] ---
    I was just thinking the same thing!
[21:24] ---
    Momose. You and I...
[21:28] ---
    Yes?
[21:39] ---
    Didn't we come by bike?
[21:41] ---
    Whoa! We totally did!
[21:43] ---
    - Let's head back.
    - Right!
[21:45] ---
    After being with him too much,
    his goofiness had rubbed off on me.

[00:05] ---
    I'm on a business trip
    with my new boss right now.

[00:10] ---
    Today, we're visiting...
[00:13] ---
    Akita Prefecture.
[00:16] ---
    NAMAHAGE VILLAGE
[00:22] ---
    NAMAHAGE VILLAGE
[00:30] ---
    There are all kinds of namahage
    demon exhibits in Namahage Village.
[00:35] ---
    Each one has a slightly different
    complexion and facial expression.
[00:40] ---
    Wasn't Manager traumatized by being
    snatched up by a namahage as a child?

[00:46] ---
    In the Oga region, there's a certain word
    that we use. "Namomi."
[00:50] ---
    If you get too close to the open hearth,
    you get red blotches on your hands and feet.
[00:55] ---
    - That's what we call namomi.
    - Manager.
[00:57] ---
    Because namomi often afflicts lazy people
    who are always taking breaks,
[00:58] ---
    The namahage demons
    aren't bothering you?
[01:00] ---
    No. I was scared of them as a child, but now
    that I'm an adult, I can handle it.
[01:01] ---
    these namomi are peeled off to punish them.
[01:04] ---
    The phrases "namomi wo hagu" and "namomi-hagi"
    came to be pronounced namahage over time.
[01:07] ---
    I'll make sure I take
    ample reference photos
[01:09] ---
    The namahage demons will be entering
    from over there. Thank you.
[01:09] ---
    so that we can create the ultimate ad.
[01:20] ---
    Any naughty children around?
[01:22] ---
    Any naughty children around?
[01:31] ---
    They were all blurry,
[01:34] ---
    so we watched it again!
[03:06] ---
    EPISODE 08
    WANNA VISIT MY FAMILY HOME?
[03:08] ---
    All right. I think we've done
    enough research for today.
[03:11] ---
    Can't wait to go
    to the Akita Inu Yama tomorrow!
[03:15] ---
    They're so fluffy, and not scary at all!
[03:20] ---
    Uh-oh. Did that annoy him, maybe?
[03:24] ---
    Uh, Manager?
[03:26] ---
    Oh, sorry.
[03:28] ---
    When you said fluffy, it made me think
    of Hakutou, who I left with Chief.
[03:34] ---
    Wonder what Hakutou's up to now?
[03:42] ---
    My owners have been away
    on business since yesterday.

[03:46] ---
    That's why I came to the home of this
    weird old guy with glasses.

[03:49] ---
    The weird old guy with glasses
    won't stop brushing me.

[03:54] ---
    Oh, Hakutou.
[03:57] ---
    It's time for your nap, isn't it?
[03:59] ---
    I'll sleep next to you so you won't get lonely.
[04:08] ---
    He wouldn't want
    to sleep next to me anyway.
[04:13] ---
    Momose, is there somewhere
    you'd like to go in Akita?
[04:21] ---
    Wanna visit my family home?
[04:26] ---
    Hey, I'm just kidding.
[04:28] ---
    Who wants to go to his boss's house?
    It'd probably make you nervous.
[04:32] ---
    Oh, no. Actually,
    if it's not too much trouble...
[04:35] ---
    Are you kidding? It would be a godsend.
[04:38] ---
    When I mentioned this trip
    to my grandmother,
[04:40] ---
    she said, "There's something I want
    to show you, so come home if you have time."
[04:45] ---
    Your grandmother?
[04:47] ---
    You mean the one from the Grandma's
    Bag of Wisdom channel, right?
[04:51] ---
    I would love to meet her!
[04:54] ---
    I wonder what she wants to show you?
[05:08] ---
    Hello! It's so nice to meet you!
[05:11] ---
    Well, well, so glad you made it.
    Now, now, come on in!
[05:15] ---
    SHIROSAKI
[05:16] ---
    Don't mind if I do.
[05:22] ---
    So, what's your name?
[05:24] ---
    I'm Kentaro Momose.
[05:26] ---
    Ken-chan!
[05:28] ---
    Ken-chan? Yes!
[05:30] ---
    So Ken-chan, where are you from?
[05:33] ---
    Th-That would be Hokkaido.
[05:35] ---
    Ken-chan, how old are you?
[05:37] ---
    I'm 26.
[05:39] ---
    Ken-chan, want some rice crackers?
[05:41] ---
    Yes! I'd love some!
[05:44] ---
    Ken-chan, about dinner,
    is kiritanpo hot pot okay with you?
[05:49] ---
    Sorry. It carried over.
[05:52] ---
    Right!
[06:02] ---
    Hakutou is asleep on top of me!
[06:05] ---
    So cute!
[06:06] ---
    Are we friends now?
[06:10] ---
    It's not like we're friends or anything.
[06:18] ---
    Kumattechan...
[06:20] ---
    is jealous!
[06:26] ---
    It's from Chief.
[06:28] ---
    "Now that I'm getting along with Hakutou,
    Kumattechan is jealous."
[06:41] ---
    Looks like Hakutou
    is getting along with Chief!
[06:45] ---
    Yeah. That's a relief.
[06:48] ---
    Yu-chan, is it all right
    if I show Ken-chan the photo album?
[06:52] ---
    Sure. If Momose's at all interested...
[06:56] ---
    I am interested!
[07:01] ---
    Cu...
[07:02] ---
    Cute!
[07:04] ---
    Oh, right, he mistook
    this radish for his bottle.
[07:09] ---
    So he was goofy even as a baby?
[07:13] ---
    That one...
[07:15] ---
    is a photo of me when I fell asleep
    while brushing my teeth.
[07:18] ---
    And that's me crying
    when I dropped my ice cream cone.
[07:21] ---
    But in this one, it seemed like the ants
    were saying, "Thanks for dropping it!"
[07:26] ---
    So I stopped crying.
[07:31] ---
    ENTRANCE CEREMONY
    OGA MUNICIPAL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
[07:31] ---
    This is at the entrance ceremony
    for grade school.
[07:34] ---
    In this one, everything fell out
    of his backpack when he bowed.
[07:39] ---
    They're all adorable.
[07:41] ---
    All these photos are great!
[07:45] ---
    What about this one?
[07:46] ---
    That's Yu-chan and his big brother.
[07:48] ---
    Manager and his older brother!
[07:50] ---
    When Yu-chan fell into the paddy,
    his brother rushed to his rescue,
[07:55] ---
    only to fall in himself.
[07:58] ---
    Brother was the one
    who took all of these photos.
[08:02] ---
    My brother was into cameras
    since he was little.
[08:08] ---
    I really want a camera.
[08:14] ---
    When I heard that,
    I frantically saved up my allowance.
[08:20] ---
    Big Bro?
[08:22] ---
    Here. A turtle.
[08:24] ---
    I gave him a turtle.
[08:26] ---
    Turtle!
[08:28] ---
    He was beyond thrilled.
[08:30] ---
    When I look back on it now,
    I feel so mortified.
[08:33] ---
    Santa had given him a camera.
[08:38] ---
    The room you're letting me stay in
    is your older brother's, right?
[08:42] ---
    I think you said he was overseas?
[08:45] ---
    What does your brother do overseas?
[08:48] ---
    He's a photographer.
[08:50] ---
    So cool!
[08:51] ---
    PROFESSIONAL CAMERAMAN
    PHOTOGRAPHER
[08:53] ---
    He travels all over the world,
    taking pictures of landscapes and animals.
[08:59] ---
    What's wrong?
[09:01] ---
    Well, recently, I suddenly
    lost contact with my brother.
[09:05] ---
    His job sometimes requires him
    to go to dangerous places, so...
[09:09] ---
    Well, that would worry me, too.
[09:16] ---
    Just as I planned,
    you're talking about your brother now!
[09:21] ---
    When I said there was something
    I wanted to show you...
[09:24] ---
    That's what I meant.
[09:26] ---
    What you meant?
[09:28] ---
    What do you mean?
[09:32] ---
    She means that I'm back.
[09:34] ---
    I'm home!
[09:37] ---
    Big Brother.
[09:39] ---
    You're alive.
[09:46] ---
    Sorry to worry you.
[09:48] ---
    I was going to visit you in Tokyo,
[09:51] ---
    but then I heard
    that you'd be coming here.
[09:53] ---
    Grandma's surprise. A smashing success!
[09:56] ---
    See, my phone got busted,
    so I couldn't contact you. Sorry.
[10:01] ---
    Yu, who's this?
[10:03] ---
    Right. This is Momose, my subordinate.
[10:06] ---
    Momose, this is my older brother.
[10:09] ---
    Oh, uh, n-nice to meet you!
[10:14] ---
    I'm going to go wash my face.
[10:18] ---
    My kid brother can be a little ditzy,
    so does he do okay as your boss?
[10:24] ---
    Yes! He's done so much for me!
[10:27] ---
    Ken-chan's living with Yu-chan, I hear.
[10:31] ---
    Oh, are you staying in my room?
[10:33] ---
    Uh, that's right.
[10:36] ---
    I've been crashing temporarily
    in your room.
[10:39] ---
    Hey, it's okay.
    I'm hardly ever in Japan anyway.
[10:43] ---
    Stay there as long as you like.
[10:45] ---
    Th-Thank you so much!
[10:49] ---
    Ken-chan, is it okay if I take a picture?
[10:52] ---
    Uh, sure.
[10:55] ---
    There's a turtle on your camera!
[10:58] ---
    Is that the turtle Manager saved up
    his allowance to buy?
[11:02] ---
    Yeah, you heard that story?
    That's right.
[11:06] ---
    It's the turtle that my kid brother
    gave me so long ago.
[11:09] ---
    I can tell that he's been cherishing it
    all this time.

[11:12] ---
    He was so adorable when he was a kid.
[11:16] ---
    The reason I got into cameras
    in the first place...
[11:22] ---
    was because I wanted to take
    tons of photos of my sweet kid brother.
[11:29] ---
    But don't tell him I said that.
[11:38] ---
    So Brother, how did your smartphone
    get busted?
[11:41] ---
    Oh.
[11:45] ---
    There's a fountain that brings you
    good fortune if you toss in a coin.
[11:50] ---
    And I tossed my smartphone by mistake.
[11:55] ---
    What a dogachika!
[11:57] ---
    Huh? Doka...
[11:59] ---
    Regional dialect. To translate...
[12:03] ---
    Dogachikade!
[12:09] ---
    This is Japan, Brother.
[12:12] ---
    Oh, yeah, I can't help myself
    when I try to translate.
[12:16] ---
    It means careless or ditzy.
[12:20] ---
    Gunshots?
[12:23] ---
    Brother.
[12:25] ---
    I told you, this is Japan.
[12:28] ---
    They're goofy brothers!
[12:33] ---
    These are the ingredients
    for kiritanpo hot pot.
[12:36] ---
    Just like the ones I saw
    on your MyTube channel!
[12:39] ---
    Since we're all here, let me record us
    all making kiritanpo hotpot together.
[12:44] ---
    GRANDMA'S BAG OF WISDOM
    HOW TO MAKE KIRITANPO
[12:45] ---
    I'm going to upload it
    to my Grandma's Bag of Wisdom channel.
[12:49] ---
    Let me shoot it.
[12:50] ---
    Thanks.
[12:52] ---
    Okay, I'm recording.
[12:56] ---
    Hey, it's out of juice.
[12:59] ---
    I've got one. Here.
[13:07] ---
    Not ju-en. I meant juice!
[13:11] ---
    Thanks for the great footage!
[13:16] ---
    You pound the rice like this
    until it's about half-crushed.
[13:20] ---
    - Wanna give it a try?
    - Yes!
[13:25] ---
    You're good at this!
[13:26] ---
    Uh-huh!
[13:28] ---
    - You're good at this!
    - Uh-huh!
[13:31] ---
    - You're good at this!
    - Uh-huh!
[13:33] ---
    - You're good at this!
    - Uh-huh!
[13:41] ---
    Brother, did you buy a new smartphone?
[13:44] ---
    Yeah. But...
[13:46] ---
    I've already cracked the screen a little.
[13:48] ---
    That was fast!
[13:50] ---
    How?
[13:52] ---
    I bought a new one
    as soon as I got back here.
[13:56] ---
    But on the way back...
[14:00] ---
    I thought I was putting it into my pocket,
    only I didn't have any pockets.
[14:06] ---
    Hey, aren't you that Shirosaki kid?
[14:09] ---
    Yeah, thought so!
[14:12] ---
    Long time no...
[14:16] ---
    Hey, look at you, all grown up!
[14:23] ---
    Well, you take it easy now!
[14:28] ---
    I guess you were lucky that it was just
    the screen that got cracked.
[14:34] ---
    Is kiritanpo supposed to be that long?
[14:37] ---
    Uh, no.
[14:39] ---
    We lost track because we were deep
    in conversation, huh?
[14:52] ---
    It's plum tasty, so you dig in first!
[14:57] ---
    That's Akita dialect, too.
    It means... Let's see...
[15:02] ---
    It's majorly delish,
    so she wants you to try it.
[15:07] ---
    Yu...
[15:08] ---
    He won't get it if you translate
    Akita dialect into Akita dialect!
[15:12] ---
    It means, "It's really delicious,
    I'm telling you."
[15:14] ---
    Oh, I see.
[15:18] ---
    So? Is it good?
[15:20] ---
    Yes! Majorly delish! I'd say.
[15:25] ---
    You're a big guy, Ken-chan, so have lots.
[15:29] ---
    There are seconds, too.
[15:31] ---
    Thank you very much!
[15:33] ---
    By the way, Yu...
[15:35] ---
    It's been a while, so want to go
    to the neighborhood hot spring?
[15:38] ---
    Fine by me. Momose, want to go?
[15:43] ---
    Yes!
[15:47] ---
    Brother, it's been a long time.
    Are you sure you know the way?
[15:51] ---
    Of course!
[15:54] ---
    I've been there over a hundred times!
[16:08] ---
    Seriously, Brother? Let me handle this.
[16:12] ---
    Hey, Mr. Reliable!
[16:23] ---
    Where are we?
[16:25] ---
    Um, would you like me to drive?
[16:33] ---
    Three hundred meters ahead.
    Make a left.

[16:45] ---
    Hey, could that be it?
[16:46] ---
    OGA HOT SPRING VILLAGE
[16:51] ---
    Thank you so much!
[16:57] ---
    Hey, if it isn't the Shirosaki brothers!
[17:00] ---
    Oh, hey, long time no see!
[17:03] ---
    Now when did you two get back?
[17:06] ---
    I got here today.
[17:07] ---
    I got here last week.
[17:10] ---
    I remember you two were always getting
    into trouble for swimming in the bath.
[17:15] ---
    Sorry about that.
[17:16] ---
    Don't swim here anymore, all right?
[17:18] ---
    Hey, but look how big you both are!
    You used to be so tiny!
[17:23] ---
    Manager and his brother
    are both well-liked at home, too.

[17:31] ---
    RELAXATION HALL
    UP AHEAD TO THE LEFT
[17:33] ---
    Want to drink some milk
    in that lounge over there?
[17:34] ---
    RELAXATION HALL
[17:36] ---
    Okay!
[17:38] ---
    Huh? What?
[17:41] ---
    Brother, you have to pull it.
[17:46] ---
    Huh?
[17:48] ---
    Um, I think you slide it?
[17:55] ---
    MILK
[18:03] ---
    So, what kind of photos do you take?
[18:12] ---
    Stuff like this.
[18:14] ---
    Thank you very much!
[18:28] ---
    Somehow I can sense
    how vast the world is,
[18:31] ---
    and it makes my own troubles
    seem so small.
[18:34] ---
    Thank you for the great review!
[18:41] ---
    Tons of turtles!
[18:43] ---
    Lots of turtle photos, right?
[18:44] ---
    Thanks to this,
    I'm a big fan of turtles now!
[18:51] ---
    This mountain is erupting like crazy.
[18:55] ---
    Looks so mystical.
[18:59] ---
    But wasn't it scary, getting this close to it?
[19:03] ---
    I never skimp on safety precautions, but
    there are lots of times when I feel scared.
[19:08] ---
    Still...
[19:10] ---
    In this world, there are unbelievably
    beautiful landscapes, creatures, and people.
[19:19] ---
    And my desire to show those images to as many
    people as I can extinguishes my fears.
[19:26] ---
    M-Me, too.
    Me, too! Me, too!
[19:30] ---
    I want to harbor a strong desire to bring
    amazing ads to as many people as I can
[19:35] ---
    and overcome all kinds of fears!
[19:38] ---
    I fell under his influence at warp speed!
[19:42] ---
    I'm gonna give it my all, too.
[19:48] ---
    Tomorrow, I'm going to gather lots
    of information about the Akita Inu Yama,
[19:53] ---
    and let the whole world know
    how awesome Akita is.
[19:59] ---
    Just look at those Shirosaki kids.
[20:11] ---
    Sorry, could you stop the car for a second?
[20:23] ---
    Yu! Look how gorgeous the stars are!
[20:26] ---
    You come, too, Ken-chan!
[20:31] ---
    Brother hasn't changed at all.
[20:41] ---
    That's the Great Square of Pegasus, right?
[20:44] ---
    That's the Andromeda Galaxy,
    and that's Pegasus over there.
[20:49] ---
    There's a great view of Cassiopeia, too.
[20:52] ---
    That's the Polar Star.
[20:54] ---
    And...
[20:55] ---
    H-Hey, watch out.
[20:59] ---
    Yu! I'll save you!
[21:03] ---
    Are you all right?
[21:04] ---
    We're fine.
[21:12] ---
    It's just like that photo.
[21:15] ---
    Dogachikade!
[21:17] ---
    Yu! Look this way.
[21:20] ---
    Peace.
[21:23] ---
    They're really wonderful,
    goofy brothers.

[22:59] ---
    AKITA INU YAMA
[23:04] ---
    These are our Akita dogs.
[23:06] ---
    They may be big,
    but they're still puppies!
[23:11] ---
    Just as I thought,
    they're fluffy and adorable!
[23:15] ---
    In order to show the world
    just how cute they are,
[23:18] ---
    I'm going to take
    tons of reference photos.
[23:20] ---
    So cool!
[23:27] ---
    Manager!
[23:29] ---
    A-Are you all right?
[23:31] ---
    I forgot about the glass.

    Planning and Sales Section Chief
    at Minette, Mitsuo Aoyama, age 39.

[00:08] ---
    No one will look my way.
    No one has any interest in me.

[00:17] ---
    Mr. Tanaka,
    do you want to go to lunch?
[00:19] ---
    Yeah, good idea.
[00:21] ---
    No one's going to ask me, anyway.
[00:24] ---
    How about we have
    that sea bass special? It's the BASS-t!
[00:27] ---
    Just kidding!
[00:28] ---
    Hey, there you go again,
    with the silly puns!
[00:33] ---
    If I utter a pun, maybe I'll get
    some attention from my own subordinates.

[00:37] ---
    Your boss is im-BOSS-ibly uncool.
    Just kidding.
[00:40] ---
    What? No, no.
    You're a totally cool boss, Chief.
[00:44] ---
    I know you are.
[00:46] ---
    He didn't get my pun.
[00:48] ---
    But...
[00:49] ---
    Ba-bump!
[00:51] ---
    Chief, would you like to go to lunch?
[00:54] ---
    Yesssss!
[02:27] ---
    EPISODE 09
    I'LL LISTEN TO THAT~!
[02:50] ---
    This stuffed animal is alive.
[02:57] ---
    THE BEAR
[03:00] ---
    This horror movie looks good!
[03:04] ---
    Right, Manager doesn't like
    scary stuff.

[03:08] ---
    Bears are scary.
[03:10] ---
    Right now, Manager and I are on our way
    to return a wallet

[03:14] ---
    we found in front of our building
    to its owner.

[03:19] ---
    Uh, Manager?
[03:20] ---
    It should be around here.
[03:22] ---
    Uh, right.
[03:34] ---
    Welcome.
[03:38] ---
    Yay! I have some visitors!
[03:38] ---
    SHIROSAKI
    POV
[03:45] ---
    Manager!
[03:46] ---
    Shirosaki?
[03:49] ---
    Thank you for coming all this way
    to bring me my wallet.
[03:52] ---
    It's fine. I thought it would be
    inconvenient not to have it.
[03:55] ---
    Pardon me.
[03:57] ---
    Tons of Kumattechans!
[03:59] ---
    Who knew that I'd drop my wallet?
[04:02] ---
    You've been busy, Chief.
    You must be exhausted.
[04:05] ---
    So we brought you something sweet
    to relieve your fatigue.
[04:09] ---
    Weepy, weepy...
[04:11] ---
    I nearly used your wallet to buy them.
[04:16] ---
    Gotta hand it to you, Shirosaki.
[04:18] ---
    I'll go make some honey tea, okay?
[04:20] ---
    You two sit with Kumattechan
    on the sofa and wait, okay?
[04:26] ---
    A LITTLE SCARED TO SIT NEXT TO HIM
[04:31] ---
    He moved!
[04:39] ---
    Thank you for the desserts!
[04:46] ---
    Really, this is such a beautiful house.
    So spacious.
[04:50] ---
    Thanks.
    But it's lonely living here by myself,
[04:54] ---
    so I was thinking of selling it
    right after my divorce went through.
[04:57] ---
    What?
[04:58] ---
    But since these Kumattechans arrived,
[05:01] ---
    I've felt less lonely,
    and now I'm enjoying my life here.
[05:06] ---
    Kumattechan gave Chief moral support.
[05:10] ---
    Sorry I was scared of you.
[05:15] ---
    Hey, it's fluffy and cute.
[05:19] ---
    I never knew that side of Chief.
[05:27] ---
    Hey, it's Kumattechan!
[05:32] ---
    Hey, Momose. Morning!
[05:35] ---
    Morning, Kinjo.
[05:43] ---
    Why do you have a mic on yours?
[05:46] ---
    This is the symbol
    from my favorite anime.
[05:49] ---
    Anime?
[05:50] ---
    Yeah. My hobby is watching anime.
[05:54] ---
    Really? I never would've guessed!
[05:57] ---
    Oh, Manager. Good morning!
[06:00] ---
    Good morning.
[06:02] ---
    Morning.
[06:09] ---
    Kinjo, are you free tonight?
[06:11] ---
    What's going on?
[06:13] ---
    Do you want to get dinner?
[06:15] ---
    Sure, I'll go! The usual four, right?
[06:19] ---
    No, would you mind
    if it was just you and me?
[06:22] ---
    Not yet!
[06:24] ---
    Right, not yet. I get it.
    It's too soon for us to be alone, right?
[06:29] ---
    No, it hasn't boiled yet.
    It's still water!
[06:38] ---
    Going drinking one-on-one with Manager!
[06:44] ---
    You're going drinking,
    just the two of you?
[06:45] ---
    Yeah. Seems like there's something
    Manager wants to ask me.
[06:49] ---
    Something he wants to ask you?
[06:51] ---
    No one wants to go drinking
    one-on-one with me.
[06:59] ---
    Chief?
[07:01] ---
    If you're interested, would you
    like to go drinking with me?
[07:05] ---
    GASP
[07:06] ---
    Yesssss!
[07:08] ---
    This might be a chance
    to get to know Chief better!

[07:12] ---
    MOMOTARO
[07:14] ---
    You're studying anime?
[07:16] ---
    Yeah. Lately we've been getting more and
    more requests for anime-related ads,
[07:21] ---
    so I'd like to know more about it.
[07:23] ---
    I see. So that's why
    you wanted to talk to me.
[07:26] ---
    I'm planning to watch a few titles.
[07:29] ---
    But there are so many shows,
    you don't know what to start with, right?
[07:33] ---
    Exactly.
[07:36] ---
    We need to find something
    that's easy to get into.
[07:39] ---
    Hey!
[07:41] ---
    What about this? Since you love cats,
    I'd recommend it for you.
[07:42] ---
    MEOW-DOL MASTER
[07:45] ---
    It's a show about anthropomorphic cats.
[07:47] ---
    Meow-dol Master?
[07:49] ---
    God-tier episodes every week,
[07:51] ---
    and they put a lot of work
    into the Part Cs and the end titles.
[07:53] ---
    Hey, and the people in them
    are top-notch!
[07:56] ---
    PART C
    END TITLES
[07:56] ---
    GOD-TIER
    PEOPLE INSIDE
[07:57] ---
    I have no idea what he's saying.
[07:59] ---
    It's got three seasons so far.
    My personal favorite is Mujirushi!
[08:04] ---
    Mujirushi.
[08:05] ---
    MUJIRUSHI
[08:06] ---
    Hey, I know what that is.
[08:07] ---
    I like Mujirushi, too. I bought some
    butter chicken curry the other day.
[08:12] ---
    That's another Mujirushi!
[08:16] ---
    Sorry. I was going on and on,
    spouting jargon.
[08:20] ---
    I was so thrilled to be talking
    anime with you. I couldn't help it.
[08:23] ---
    No, it's just that I'm too clueless about it.
[08:26] ---
    I'll give this show a try.
[08:28] ---
    By the way,
    what's your absolute favorite, Kinjo?
[08:31] ---
    What, you're gonna go there?
[08:34] ---
    The show that I got the most addicted to
    is called Mic Prince!
[08:39] ---
    Mi-Pri started out as a smartphone game,
[08:43] ---
    but then it got an anime adaptation,
    and the story's super loaded,
[08:46] ---
    and the character songs are also godly.
[08:48] ---
    Hm, hm, I see.
[08:50] ---
    Hey, once in a while,
    they even do virtual live shows!
[08:52] ---
    I take my stuffed animal
    and take part in them!
[08:55] ---
    You wouldn't believe how obsessed I am.
[08:57] ---
    Incomprehensible.
[09:00] ---
    Hey, want to see my waifu?
[09:02] ---
    What? You're married?
[09:05] ---
    My waifu... My waifu...
[09:09] ---
    HEART POUNDING
[09:09] ---
    I'd like to see her.
[09:12] ---
    Found it!
[09:14] ---
    It's this character.
[09:16] ---
    I'm going to sing just for you.
[09:23] ---
    CANNOT KEEP UP
[09:24] ---
    Manager? Please come back!
[09:28] ---
    Manager and Kinjo
    must be drinking right now, huh?
[09:32] ---
    Probably. Back when I was
    Shirosaki's supervisor,
[09:36] ---
    the two of us used to go drinking a lot.
[09:38] ---
    How many years ago was it
    that you were Manager's supervisor?
[09:43] ---
    I think it's been ten years?
[09:45] ---
    He was the second employee
    that I supervised.
[09:49] ---
    I'd messed up the first one,
    so I was really nervous.
[09:54] ---
    I'm sure it was my fault
    that new hire quit.

[09:58] ---
    Trauma.
[09:59] ---
    The new hire that Aoyama once supervised
    quit after a week, right?
[10:04] ---
    Oh, you mean that kid who snapped,
    saying he didn't want to work anymore?
[10:09] ---
    That type of person would quit no matter
    who supervised him, don't you think?
[10:12] ---
    What am I going to do
    if my new subordinate quits, too?

[10:15] ---
    I'm going to be extra careful.
[10:19] ---
    My name is Shirosaki.
    Nice to meet you.
[10:23] ---
    I'm Aoyama. Nice to meet you.
[10:24] ---
    HEART POUNDING
[10:26] ---
    Oh, I greeted him without standing up.
    He's going to snap and quit.

[10:30] ---
    All right, why don't we do some light training
    in the conference room?
[10:34] ---
    Right.
[10:36] ---
    Good work.
[10:39] ---
    The humidifier in this room is out of order,
    so it's pretty dry in here.
[10:42] ---
    Have some water, if you like.
[10:44] ---
    Wait, you're done with it already?
[10:47] ---
    Yes.
[10:48] ---
    He's a competent kid. If I make even
    one mistake, he'll snap, and then quit.

[10:55] ---
    So once you seal those up,
    we'll be done.
[10:58] ---
    Right.
[10:59] ---
    Glue...
[11:02] ---
    I'm sorry, I left it on my desk.
    Would you mind if I borrowed this one?
[11:10] ---
    If you don't mind
    sharing an indirect kiss with me.
[11:11] ---
    LIP BALM
[11:14] ---
    Lip balm? Sorry, I thought
    it was a glue stick.
[11:18] ---
    And I was so nervous,
    I forgot to bring along my glue stick.
[11:21] ---
    I'm really sorry.
[11:23] ---
    Whoa, I'm sorry! Are you all right?
[11:31] ---
    NATURAL WATER
[11:35] ---
    Thanks to Shirosaki, my own tension
    dissipated just like that.
[11:40] ---
    My trauma also vanished without a trace.
[11:46] ---
    Huh? It's a message from Manager.
[11:50] ---
    Meow-dol Master?
[11:53] ---
    Sorry, I was trying to save an anime photo,
    but sent it to you by mistake.

[11:58] ---
    "The thing is, I'm studying
    anime right now."
[12:02] ---
    What? Shirosaki?
[12:04] ---
    Yes.
[12:05] ---
    Well, we've been getting more
    and more requests for anime-related ads.
[12:10] ---
    Shirosaki sure is diligent.
[12:12] ---
    Kinjo said he was an anime fan,
    so that's why Manager...
[12:17] ---
    Okay, we're going to dance
    to the rhythm together!

[12:21] ---
    Meow-dol Master's songs
    and dances are popular!
[12:26] ---
    Hey, I know! Want to go to karaoke now?
[12:31] ---
    Chief, thank you for today.
[12:34] ---
    We had fun, didn't we?
[12:37] ---
    Good night!
[12:41] ---
    That was fun, talking about
    all kinds of things.

[12:44] ---
    Now I want to know
    more about the chief.

[12:51] ---
    I've totally mastered this dance!
[12:53] ---
    I'm going to do my best
    to keep up with you!

[13:21] ---
    I ended up singing tons of songs!
[13:23] ---
    Manager, what do you want to sing next?
[13:26] ---
    Thank you so much for today.
[13:34] ---
    I should be thanking you.
[13:42] ---
    I've always wanted
    to drink with you one-on-one.
[13:46] ---
    So this was the best night of my life.
[13:48] ---
    Kinjo, I'm going to do my best
    to learn about anime.
[13:54] ---
    Please create
    an anime ad with me someday.
[13:58] ---
    You bet!
[14:04] ---
    So cute!
[14:06] ---
    I've learned some of the dance moves, too.
[14:12] ---
    That's awesome!
[14:20] ---
    I'm home.
[14:21] ---
    Whoa!
[14:25] ---
    Welcome home... Meow...
[14:27] ---
    Meow? What happened with Kinjo?
[14:34] ---
    Manager, are you all right?
[14:37] ---
    Guess he had a good time?
[14:40] ---
    I'll ask him tomorrow.
[14:45] ---
    Good morning!
[14:46] ---
    Morning.
[14:47] ---
    Nice weather today, huh?
[14:50] ---
    M-Ms. Konno?
[14:51] ---
    Oh, sorry for yelling all of a sudden.
[14:54] ---
    No, no. Is something the matter?
[14:57] ---
    I was supposed to be in charge
    of a mixer tonight,
[15:00] ---
    but all of the guys caught the flu.
[15:03] ---
    My friends are going to be bummed.
[15:05] ---
    Help me out, Momose and Chief!
[15:08] ---
    When did you get here?
[15:09] ---
    Everyone, can you take part
    in a mixer tonight?
[15:13] ---
    I can go!
[15:15] ---
    Thanks!
[15:17] ---
    What about you, Momose and Chief?
[15:18] ---
    What? Uh, if someone like me is okay.
[15:21] ---
    Same here. Even though
    I'll only dampen the mood if I go.
[15:26] ---
    Thank you so much!
[15:27] ---
    HEY...
[15:28] ---
    Hey, speaking of mixers...
[15:31] ---
    Uh, excuse me.
[15:33] ---
    Manager!
[15:36] ---
    Would you like to come to a mixer?
[15:38] ---
    Mister?
[15:39] ---
    A mixer, actually.
    You'd be helping her out!
[15:43] ---
    Momose? Are you all right? Hey...
[15:53] ---
    Speaking of mixers, years ago...
[15:56] ---
    Come to the mixer
    to balance out the numbers.
[15:59] ---
    I went because Mr. Kurono asked me to.
[16:02] ---
    But it didn't really go well.
[16:05] ---
    And I got kicked.
[16:06] ---
    You didn't do your job and get everyone
    pumped up. That's why it didn't go well!
[16:11] ---
    I have to make sure it's fun.
[16:14] ---
    Mixers are scary.
[16:17] ---
    Whoa! Chief! When did you get here?
[16:19] ---
    I've been behind you all along.
[16:27] ---
    And so...
[16:29] ---
    Some proper-looking guys showed up.
[16:31] ---
    Those suits look expensive.
[16:33] ---
    I'm so nervous.
[16:34] ---
    It's a fancy restaurant,
    but they serve beef bowls.
[16:37] ---
    And looks like there's
    a salad bar in the back.
[16:39] ---
    I'm going to do all I can
    to get everyone pumped up!

[16:42] ---
    Y-You've all been friends
    since elementary school, right?
[16:46] ---
    That's right!
[16:48] ---
    This is my friend, Kumattechan.
[16:52] ---
    I tagged along. Yay!
[16:54] ---
    Ventriloquism?
[16:56] ---
    That flowery dress sure is cute.
[16:59] ---
    Thank you very much!
[17:00] ---
    Ahem.
[17:02] ---
    I know I'm not cute.
[17:04] ---
    Super-cute, super-cute.
[17:08] ---
    You're on a roll, Chief!
[17:09] ---
    Excuse me. Please grill these vegetables
    lightly before eating hem.
[17:15] ---
    Right.
[17:18] ---
    Grill them with fire?
[17:21] ---
    Manager, that's a candle for lighting.
[17:26] ---
    Please use this brazier.
[17:29] ---
    I can see myself
    when I was happy in this flame.
[17:33] ---
    Are you the Little Match-girl?
[17:35] ---
    Funny!
[17:38] ---
    I've got to get something going, too.
[17:40] ---
    Excuse me, what blood type are you all?
[17:43] ---
    Oh, we're all Type A.
[17:47] ---
    Ehhhh?
[17:48] ---
    A dad joke, out of nowhere!
[17:52] ---
    What blood type are you?
[17:55] ---
    My heart is quite bloody.
    So much happened in my life.
[17:59] ---
    Heavy, much?
[18:02] ---
    Here's the fried chicken.
    I'll divvy them up.
[18:08] ---
    Lemon...
[18:10] ---
    Lemon in both eyes again.
[18:12] ---
    Manager!
[18:15] ---
    My glasses always deflect
    the lemon juice anyway.
[18:22] ---
    You're in top form today!
[18:25] ---
    We've never been to a mixer
    this fun, have we?
[18:27] ---
    I know!
[18:29] ---
    I was nervous at first,
    but I'm really enjoying myself!
[18:29] ---
    BEEF BOWL
[18:31] ---
    Good to hear!
[18:33] ---
    It's all thanks to Chief
    being the life of the party.

[18:37] ---
    I'm going to go get some salad, okay?
[18:39] ---
    I'll go with you.
[18:43] ---
    Chief, what's up with you today?
[18:46] ---
    Did one of those girls catch your eye?
[18:48] ---
    No, nothing like that.
[18:50] ---
    Hey, you're being secretive!
[18:53] ---
    I'm going to salad bar, too.
[18:54] ---
    Oh, I'll get it for you, Manager.
[18:58] ---
    Sorry.
[18:59] ---
    Chief, no fair keeping secrets from me!
[19:03] ---
    Kinjo's about to cry. Snivel, snivel.
[19:06] ---
    Hey! The pineapples look yummy!
[19:08] ---
    Oh, hey, it's not what you think,
    Kinjo. It's Momose.
[19:12] ---
    Huh? Me?
[19:15] ---
    Are you setting your sights on Momose?
    How did that happen?
[19:18] ---
    No, Momose said,
    "Mixer... got kicked, scary..." No, never mind.
[19:25] ---
    Chief?
[19:26] ---
    Momose?
[19:27] ---
    My inner voice that said I once got kicked
    by my boss at a mixer, so mixers are scary.
[19:33] ---
    I said it all out loud, didn't I?
[19:35] ---
    What? Uh, yes.
[19:39] ---
    So the reason you were working the room
    so hard with your dad jokes
[19:43] ---
    and getting everyone so pumped up...
[19:47] ---
    Yeah.
[19:49] ---
    I wanted to make it such a fun mixer
    that you'd forget the terror of your past.
[19:57] ---
    Do mixers still scare you?
[20:00] ---
    Fear, fear...
[20:04] ---
    fly away!
[20:07] ---
    Chief.
[20:09] ---
    I'll be heading back now.
[20:14] ---
    I see. It was all for your sake, huh?
[20:19] ---
    What's wrong, Momose?
    You got a stomachache?
[20:22] ---
    I'm just so moved that I got to meet
    these amazing bosses.
[20:28] ---
    I want to do something to thank the chief.
[20:31] ---
    Then let's go back,
    and shower him with attention!
[20:34] ---
    Okay!
[20:38] ---
    Yes. Right, right. Understood.
[20:40] ---
    She just got a call about work,
    so she's going to step out for a while.
[20:45] ---
    Then until she gets back,
    I'm sitting with the girls!
[20:48] ---
    Oh no! I'm face-to-face with Mr. Aoyama!
[20:51] ---
    You looked at me!
[20:54] ---
    Chief looks so thrilled
    to be getting some attention.

[20:57] ---
    Thanks, Kinjo.
[21:00] ---
    All right, let me see what I can do.
[21:03] ---
    Hey, Chief!
    You've got a mole on your ear!
[21:07] ---
    You found it!
[21:11] ---
    Mr. Aoyama, you're too cute!
[21:17] ---
    So, did you meet anyone you liked?
[21:21] ---
    Yes, we did!
[21:22] ---
    What? Who?
[21:25] ---
    The person who tried to make us happy...
[21:27] ---
    ...and found a great venue and great guys...
[21:30] ---
    ...and worked so hard to organize this event!
[21:33] ---
    Me?
[21:37] ---
    After-party. Yay!
[21:41] ---
    Who's going to sing?
[21:45] ---
    I'll sing...
[21:47] ---
    an anime song.
[21:48] ---
    Wow!
[21:53] ---
    Give it your all and do your best!
[23:37] ---
    Amazing!
[23:37] ---
    That's perfect!

[00:10] ---
    My abusive boss damaged my spirit
    and my health, so I changed jobs.

[00:14] ---
    I'm sorry, I didn't mean
    to keep you waiting, Manager.
[00:22] ---
    No, I just got here myself.
[00:27] ---
    My new boss is goofy.
[02:01] ---
    GOOFY BOSS VS. ACORNS
[02:06] ---
    EPISODE 10
    TAKE RESPONSIBILITY...!
[02:19] ---
    What is it, Momose?
[02:21] ---
    What?
[02:22] ---
    Does he think that I tapped his shoulder?
[02:26] ---
    Uh, no, the acorn...
[02:29] ---
    Telling him the truth might
    embarrass him. What should I do?

[02:34] ---
    What about acorns? You like them?
[02:37] ---
    Huh? Oh, that's right!
    I love them. You know, acorns.
[02:44] ---
    He gathered a ton for me.
[02:47] ---
    No fair, Momose.
[02:50] ---
    Hey, bringing you acorns and stuff.
    Manager's like a squirrel!
[02:54] ---
    I know!
[03:00] ---
    He's gonna make him wear it.
[03:02] ---
    MANAGER WEARING A KIGURUMI
[03:04] ---
    I can't button this up.
[03:06] ---
    Freakin' cute!
[03:07] ---
    Afterwards, Kinjo buttoned it up for him.
[03:13] ---
    GOOFY VS. HALLOWEEN
[03:18] ---
    HALLOWEEN
[03:21] ---
    October 31st.
    It's Halloween everywhere.

[03:25] ---
    My boss and I
    are out making rounds again.

[03:28] ---
    Which way are we supposed to turn?
[03:32] ---
    Hey, we're ghosts!
[03:34] ---
    Isn't that adorable, these Halloween...
[03:39] ---
    Oh, they're Halloween costumes, then?
[03:41] ---
    Manager's adorable, too.
[03:44] ---
    Sorry.
[03:46] ---
    We should turn left here.
[03:50] ---
    All right.
[03:54] ---
    Sorry. I was flustered,
    so I went right instead.
[03:57] ---
    You hold your chopsticks
    with your right hand!
[04:00] ---
    And you hold your bowl with your left!
[04:03] ---
    Thanks.
[04:04] ---
    Afterwards, we bought them candy
    to thank them.

[04:11] ---
    That's strange. It should be up ahead.
[04:15] ---
    Hey, there's a policeman.
[04:18] ---
    I'll ask him for directions.
[04:19] ---
    Oh, I'll do that.
[04:21] ---
    No, it's all right.
[04:23] ---
    Thank you very much.
[04:27] ---
    What happened?
[04:28] ---
    That was a shock. That policeman
    was also someone in costume.
[04:35] ---
    Afterwards, the zombie cop
    kindly showed us the way.

[04:40] ---
    MANAGER DRESSED AS A NAMAHAGE
[04:41] ---
    Gimme candy, or I'll play a trick on you.
[04:46] ---
    MAKING ROUNDS BY CAR
[05:03] ---
    I'm always impressed.
[05:05] ---
    Manager is such a good driver!
[05:10] ---
    We're here. Let's go.
[05:18] ---
    Your seatbelt...
[05:22] ---
    Momose's out making rounds by car
    with Manager again today, huh?
[05:26] ---
    Lucky him!
[05:27] ---
    I know nobody wants to ride
    shotgun with me, anyway.
[05:31] ---
    Chief, riding shotgun with you is awesome!
    I'll drive on the way back.
[05:35] ---
    Turn right at the next traffic light.
[05:41] ---
    By the way, if you're going
    to Kumatte Land, turn left.

[05:46] ---
    I know nobody wants to go
    to Kumatte Land, anyway.

[05:50] ---
    What's with this navigation system?
[05:53] ---
    It's my Kumattechan Car Navigation app.
[05:55] ---
    Keep going straight
    for about 3 kilometers.

[05:57] ---
    By the way, if you're going to Kumatte Land,
    make a U-turn at the next traffic light.

[06:03] ---
    Our meeting went off without a hitch,
    and we're about to return to the office.

[06:07] ---
    1,000-YEN BILLS
    COINS
[06:09] ---
    Oh, no. It doesn't take 10,000-yen bills.
[06:13] ---
    Momose, can you break one for me?
[06:15] ---
    Sorry. I don't have any smaller bills.
[06:17] ---
    I'll go break one
    at that convenience store.
[06:20] ---
    Actually, I'll go. I'd like to get something
    to drink. You wait in the car.
[06:25] ---
    Right. Thank you so much.
[06:30] ---
    I'll use this time
    to summarize that meeting.

[06:34] ---
    Come to think of it, this is the first time
    I've ever ridden in a car driven by my boss.

[06:39] ---
    Since Mr. Kurono totally refused to drive.
[06:44] ---
    Speed up, will you?
[06:46] ---
    You're useless! You scumbag!
[06:49] ---
    You're slow at your job and driving!
[06:53] ---
    Making rounds by car was such an ordeal.
[06:59] ---
    Thanks for waiting.
[07:01] ---
    I bought bread and all kinds of stuff.
[07:03] ---
    Pick out whatever you want.
[07:06] ---
    I also bought that peach tea that you like.
[07:08] ---
    Wow, thank you so much!
[07:13] ---
    YAMASAKI CAT'S BREAD FESTIVAL
[07:14] ---
    Yamasaki Cat's Bread Festival!
[07:17] ---
    Yeah. It caught my eye,
    so I bought a lot of those.
[07:21] ---
    This is "The Cat Stepped on My Bread."
[07:24] ---
    It's so cute!
[07:28] ---
    Huh? What?
[07:30] ---
    I went to get change for cash, but I paid
    with my credit card by mistake.
[07:42] ---
    NOW MOMOSE LOVES
    MAKING ROUNDS BY CAR
[07:42] ---
    Now I love making rounds by car!
[07:46] ---
    MANAGER IN HIS DRIVING SCHOOL DAYS
[07:48] ---
    You're tall, so maybe you should move
    your seat back. It's pretty cramped, right?
[07:54] ---
    Uh, right.
[08:00] ---
    He's laying down.
[08:04] ---
    GOOFY VS. ONLINE MEETING
[08:11] ---
    There was a mass infection in our office building,
    so we're working from home this week.

[08:17] ---
    We're also holding our meetings online.
[08:19] ---
    My owner isn't leaving the house today.
[08:25] ---
    Manager, it's online,
    so I think you can take off your mask.
[08:29] ---
    Hm, you're right.
[08:34] ---
    Since you can't see me from the waist down,
    I'm not wearing pants.

[08:36] ---
    Will you still talk to me?
[08:38] ---
    You could be naked and I'd still say okay.
[08:41] ---
    Chief, please don't take off
    your clothes for real!

[08:42] ---
    Get the meeting started already.
[08:43] ---
    No one's here, so it's all right.
[08:46] ---
    GOOFY VS. FALL READING
[08:49] ---
    BOOKS
[08:51] ---
    Today, I'm going on a day trip
    with Manager.

[08:54] ---
    We're picking out books
    to read on the train.

[08:57] ---
    A SHORT REST FOR THE SOUL
[08:58] ---
    I'm going with this.
[09:00] ---
    Right. I'm reading this one.
[09:02] ---
    PET DETECTIVE
    GORO NEKOKUMA'S SUPER DEDUCTION
[09:03] ---
    Is that a mystery novel?
[09:04] ---
    Yeah. It's fun figuring out who the culprit is.
[09:16] ---
    FOG TOWN
    MYSTERIOUS
    THIEF WHITE CAT
    ASSASSIN SKIPJACK TUNA
[09:19] ---
    DON BARKSALOT
    SKYSCRAPER BLUEPRINTS
[09:23] ---
    Is something the matter?
[09:26] ---
    Within the first five minutes of reading this,
    I've figured out who the culprit is.
[09:28] ---
    That's amazing!
[09:31] ---
    No, actually, I bought this book before.
[09:35] ---
    This was even more healing
    than my healing book of poems.

[09:39] ---
    GOOFY DETECTIVE
    YUSEI SHIROSAKI
[09:40] ---
    I doubt he's going to solve it.
[09:48] ---
    HAKUTOU'S PHYSICAL EXAM
[09:58] ---
    I'm home.
[09:59] ---
    Hakutou.
[10:01] ---
    My owner's come home.
[10:04] ---
    I thought he was going to change
    into something comfortable.

[10:10] ---
    HE'S TIRED
[10:12] ---
    But he put on the suit
    that he'd just taken off.

[10:15] ---
    Made a mistake.
[10:21] ---
    Huh? Manager, you didn't change
    into something comfortable?
[10:25] ---
    I was spaced out,
    so I put it on again by mistake.
[10:28] ---
    Since I'm dressed up, I'm going to take
    Hakutou for his physical exam.
[10:32] ---
    - I'll go with you.
    - What are they talking about?
[10:35] ---
    RADIO TAXI
[10:39] ---
    You're taking your kitty
    for his physical today?
[10:42] ---
    Come to think of it, I had a kitty in my cab
    the other day, too.
[10:46] ---
    Where are you taking me?
    I'm scared!

[10:46] ---
    He was a really huge one! What kind of cat
    did they say he was again?
[10:50] ---
    I'm no good with foreign names, so...
[10:53] ---
    May... May... qu...
[10:56] ---
    May Queen?
[10:57] ---
    Yeah, that's it!
[11:01] ---
    That's a potato!
    Maine coon is the correct answer.

[11:06] ---
    VETERINARY HOSPITAL
[11:12] ---
    That stethoscope reminds me...
[11:14] ---
    Is something the matter?
[11:16] ---
    When I was little, I thought that
    stethoscopes could hear my inner thoughts.
[11:23] ---
    Hello. I'm Yusei Shirosaki.
    I'm four years old.

[11:29] ---
    As it turned out,
    I was extremely healthy.

[11:33] ---
    GOOFY VS. AUTUMN FESTIVAL
[11:40] ---
    On our way home from work, we all
    stopped by the Autumn Festival at the shrine.

[11:45] ---
    I don't know how many years
    it's been since my last festival!
[11:48] ---
    What do you want to eat?
[11:51] ---
    I chose a candied apple.
[11:53] ---
    I'm having a choco-banana.
[11:56] ---
    I'm having a choco-pineapple.
[11:58] ---
    I'm having cotton candy.
[11:59] ---
    This cotton candy's dandy.
[12:02] ---
    No one's going to laugh
    at my wordplay, anyway.
[12:08] ---
    I've never had
    a candied apple before, but it's good.
[12:12] ---
    His lips are bright red!
[12:14] ---
    Freakin' cute!
[12:19] ---
    Do you all have some kind of memory
    about going to festivals when you were little?
[12:23] ---
    For me it was the Bon Dance.
[12:26] ---
    As I was dancing, I started moving
    farther and farther away from the venue.
[12:31] ---
    Where are you going?
[12:34] ---
    So you've been goofy
    since you were a kid, huh?
[12:37] ---
    What I remember about festivals
    is goldfish scooping.
[12:42] ---
    All you goldfish who wish to be
    my friend, gather round!
[12:48] ---
    I'm sure all those goldfish
    were feeling bashful!
[12:52] ---
    Ba-bump! Momose...
[12:54] ---
    As for when I was a kid, every year...
[12:59] ---
    Hey there, pretty young lady!
[13:01] ---
    Wanna go to the festival with me?
[13:03] ---
    That's the pickup line I used on my mom.
[13:06] ---
    What can I say? I was young.
[13:08] ---
    That's our Kinjo.
[13:11] ---
    Do you have a special memory, Momose?
[13:13] ---
    Well, I saved up my allowance,
    and tried like crazy to scoop up a yo-yo.
[13:20] ---
    I just can't scoop one up.
[13:26] ---
    M-Mom! I scooped up a yo-yo!
[13:29] ---
    You can have it!
[13:31] ---
    And I gave it to my mother.
[13:33] ---
    You were valiant even as a kid, huh?
[13:38] ---
    Hey, Chief! They have goldfish scooping here!
    You should avenge yourself!
[13:45] ---
    All you goldfish who wish
    to join my family, gather round!
[13:53] ---
    No one wants
    to get scooped by me, anyway.
[13:56] ---
    Ch-Chief!
[13:58] ---
    You can have this yo-yo
    that I scooped up, if you like.
[14:06] ---
    I'll treasure it forever, okay?
[14:08] ---
    Uh, I think it'll get deflated in a week or so.
[14:12] ---
    Huh? I don't see Manager anywhere.
[14:16] ---
    Hey, there he is.
[14:18] ---
    He's following
    some unknown office workers!
[14:21] ---
    I think I'll go hit on him!
[14:24] ---
    Hey there, sweet young man! Wanna go
    on an autumn festival date with me?
[14:30] ---
    Huh?
[14:31] ---
    Even as adults, all four of us
    were basically the same.

[14:36] ---
    ACCIDENTALLY LIT THE SPARKLERS
    ON THE WRONG END
[14:42] ---
    TO THE DEAL-MAKING TABLE
[14:50] ---
    We're on our way
    to discuss a major deal today.

[14:53] ---
    I'm so nervous.
[14:56] ---
    And the company we're heading to
[14:57] ---
    is the same one I went to when I was at
    my former company, and it didn't go well.

[15:03] ---
    It's all your fault!
[15:06] ---
    I got yelled at last time,
    so it's making me even more nervous.

[15:14] ---
    Are you nervous?
[15:16] ---
    Yes. I'm sorry!
[15:23] ---
    Years ago, I got really nervous, too,
    during a major deal-making session.
[15:28] ---
    I was so nervous, when I wanted to say,
    "Please look at the reference document,"
[15:32] ---
    "Just look at these reference docs."
[15:35] ---
    I said it in a really haughty way
    by mistake.
[15:37] ---
    But then Chief said right away,
[15:40] ---
    "Sorry, Shirosaki tends to talk like
    a haughty queen when he's nervous."
[15:45] ---
    And thanks to his damage control,
    my nerves finally steadied.
[15:50] ---
    So even if you get nervous and mess up,
    I'll try to support you right away,
[15:56] ---
    so rest assured.
[15:57] ---
    Manager...
[15:59] ---
    It would help if there was some method
    of calming your nerves.
[16:05] ---
    Hey, look at that!
[16:08] ---
    That little kid is waving.
[16:11] ---
    That's cute.
[16:12] ---
    I'll be right there!
[16:15] ---
    Daddy!
[16:16] ---
    Sorry. I thought something heart-warming
    like that would calm your nerves.
[16:21] ---
    No, that was extremely healing,
    and my nervousness is gone!
[16:25] ---
    Thanks to the baby and Manager!
[16:33] ---
    Glad that the negotiations went well.
[16:35] ---
    Yes! I'm really ecstatic!
[16:38] ---
    Hey, there's a taxi.
[16:42] ---
    We high-fived each other!
[16:44] ---
    Let's celebrate.
[16:46] ---
    Yes!
[16:48] ---
    DAY OFF
[16:52] ---
    My abusive boss damaged my spirit
    and my health...

[16:57] ---
    and after a lot happened,
    I'm now living with my new boss.

[17:04] ---
    Hakutou, there's that yellow bird.
[17:08] ---
    Along with my manager,
    who has drastic bed-head,

[17:10] ---
    and little Hakutou,
    in Manager's homemade sling,

[17:14] ---
    gazing upon this yellow bird
    is now our daily routine.

[17:18] ---
    There was a storybook
    called The Yellow Bird, wasn't there?
[17:22] ---
    I think the two main characters set off
    on a journey to search for happiness,
[17:27] ---
    but that bliss
    turned out to be close to home.
[17:30] ---
    Does he mean the bluebird of happiness?
[17:33] ---
    Speaking of searching, I found
    a restaurant nearby that looks good.
[17:38] ---
    Want to go there for lunch today?
[17:41] ---
    Okay!
[17:45] ---
    It's a really nice restaurant!
[17:48] ---
    Yeah, it's next to the park,
    so there's a lot of greenery.
[17:52] ---
    Looks delicious!
[17:54] ---
    Let's dig in!
[17:59] ---
    Here.
[18:02] ---
    Thanks.
[18:03] ---
    What should I eat first?
[18:10] ---
    Sorry! I'm not laughing.
[18:14] ---
    Thank you very much for treating me!
[18:17] ---
    Sure. Want to take a walk in the park?
[18:20] ---
    Yes!
[18:25] ---
    The autumn leaves are splendid.
[18:27] ---
    Yes! Gorgeous!
[18:31] ---
    Momose! Momose!
[18:33] ---
    There's a ton of those acorns you love.
[18:36] ---
    Here.
[18:37] ---
    A huge pile! Thank you very much!
[18:41] ---
    Speaking of acorns, I hear
    there are wild squirrels in this park.
[18:45] ---
    Wild squirrels!
    It would be great to see some!
[18:48] ---
    I bet they're in thickets like that one.
[18:53] ---
    It's slippery, so try not to stumble...
[18:58] ---
    Manager!
[19:01] ---
    That was a squirrel! I think.
[19:09] ---
    They're hard to find, huh?
[19:11] ---
    Yeah.
[19:13] ---
    But that was a squirrel, for sure.
    I saw it.
[19:17] ---
    Right.
[19:23] ---
    Are you all right, Manager?
[19:26] ---
    I thought there was a backrest.
[19:29] ---
    SUPER CARBONATED
[19:29] ---
    I'm going to have my drink.
[19:32] ---
    Manager! That's...
[19:33] ---
    Oh, I always get coffee, so I...
[19:37] ---
    I shook it.
[19:38] ---
    You did, huh?
[19:46] ---
    Swan boats.
[19:48] ---
    They sure are cute!
[19:50] ---
    Have you heard the rumor that if a couple
    rides the boats here, they'll break up?
[19:55] ---
    Yes. It's famous.
[19:58] ---
    The thing is, I've always wanted to ride one,
    but I'm too scared, so I have yet to.
[20:02] ---
    Oh, but there's one swan boat with eyebrows,
[20:05] ---
    and they say that if you ride that one,
    you won't break up, and you'll be happy.
[20:09] ---
    Swan with eyebrows? That's intriguing.
    Want to search for it, to see if it really exists?
[20:16] ---
    BOAT RIDING AREA
[20:23] ---
    There it is!
[20:25] ---
    A swan with eyebrows!
    There really is one, Momose!
[20:29] ---
    Yes, there sure is, Manager.
[20:31] ---
    You can ride that swan with eyebrows
    right now if you want.
[20:38] ---
    Huh? Can't move forward.
[20:40] ---
    That's weird.
    The pedals won't move at all.
[20:44] ---
    Oh, Manager. You're pedaling backwards.
[20:47] ---
    Sorry!
[20:50] ---
    Hey, we're moving!
[20:52] ---
    Yes, we're moving!
[20:55] ---
    We got caught on a tree branch!
[20:56] ---
    Oh, no.
[20:59] ---
    This is fun!
[21:00] ---
    Yeah, it is fun!
[21:10] ---
    If it hadn't been for you, Momose...
[21:14] ---
    I would've just spent
    my days off in a random way,
[21:16] ---
    and I never would've searched for
    good restaurants, acorns, wild squirrels,
[21:19] ---
    or swans with eyebrows.
[21:22] ---
    Thanks to you, Momose, I discovered
    a way to enjoy my day off.
[21:26] ---
    I should be the one telling you that.
[21:29] ---
    Thank you for this happy day!
[21:32] ---
    I'm going to do my best
    to search for things, too.
[21:35] ---
    That reminds me,
    there's a shrine inside this park.
[21:39] ---
    Want to visit it and head home?
[21:41] ---
    Yes.
[23:20] ---
    Hey.
[23:22] ---
    Since you and I aren't a couple,
    we could've taken a normal swan boat.
[23:27] ---
    True!
[23:30] ---
    If only these blissful days...
[23:35] ---
    could go on forever!

[00:01] ---
    My abusive boss damaged my spirit
    and my health, so I changed jobs.

[00:05] ---
    And for the first time in my life,
[00:06] ---
    STATION TAKEOVER
    ADVERTISEMENT PROJECT PROPOSAL
[00:07] ---
    an ad that I created is going to be
    displayed in the train stations.

[00:12] ---
    Momose, congratulations.
[00:15] ---
    Thanks, Kinjo.
[00:17] ---
    This'll probably get you
    a heck of a bonus next month, huh?
[00:20] ---
    Bonus?
[00:23] ---
    Good for you, Momose.
[00:25] ---
    Thank you very much!
[00:27] ---
    My bonus is only going towards
    paying down my mortgage, anyway.
[00:28] ---
    That's right.
    If I'm getting a bonus, that means...

[00:32] ---
    You can use it on me!
[00:34] ---
    Really? Then I'll buy you
    100 Kumattechan stuffed animals.
[00:34] ---
    I'll have enough savings to move,
    so in other words...

[00:38] ---
    Oh wow, I don't want that.
[00:40] ---
    What's wrong?
[00:42] ---
    Oh, it's nothing.
[02:15] ---
    EPISODE 11
    I HAVE TO FIND A PLACE TO LIVE!
[02:20] ---
    It's starting to get pretty cold.
    Should I turn on the heater?
[02:25] ---
    Oh, thank you so much.
[02:27] ---
    Found any good places?
[02:29] ---
    Well, actually, I'm having a hard time finding
    something that matches my conditions.
[02:37] ---
    I'll take a look, too.
[02:39] ---
    If anything looks promising,
    I'll come with you.
[02:42] ---
    Let's take a look this weekend.
[02:49] ---
    Did you find something?
[02:52] ---
    I didn't open it.
[02:54] ---
    STILL UNOPENED
[03:03] ---
    It's taking a while to warm up, huh?
[03:07] ---
    Is it broken, maybe?
[03:12] ---
    I had the AC on.
[03:17] ---
    Right. I emailed you what I'm looking for
    in terms of rent and size. Yes.
[03:23] ---
    All right, I'll be stopping by
    in the afternoon.
[03:29] ---
    SQUEEZE
[03:29] ---
    I'm heading out now.
[03:30] ---
    Let go of me!
[03:35] ---
    COVERED IN FUR
[03:42] ---
    Okay. I'm off.
[03:49] ---
    SQUEEZE
[03:50] ---
    I'm heading out now.
[03:51] ---
    Let go of me!
[03:55] ---
    Okay. I'm off.
[04:01] ---
    SQUEEZE
[04:03] ---
    How many times are we gonna do this?
[04:06] ---
    This button... When did that happen?
[04:11] ---
    Hey, you're ready to go already.
[04:14] ---
    Yeah. I can leave anytime.
[04:17] ---
    I'll go get changed, too.
[04:19] ---
    Come here.
[04:27] ---
    I forgot what I came in here for.
[04:30] ---
    You're goofy!
[04:32] ---
    Right, a button.
[04:37] ---
    I think I had an extra button in here.
[04:40] ---
    Huh? I don't see it.
    Where did I put it away?
[04:44] ---
    Are you looking for a button?
[04:47] ---
    Manager? Are you looking for something?
[04:50] ---
    Can I help you look?
[04:52] ---
    No, it's all right.
[04:54] ---
    Guess I'll put on a different shirt.
[04:58] ---
    Are you in trouble or something?
[05:04] ---
    KICHIJOJI REALTY
[05:10] ---
    What's wrong?
[05:11] ---
    It's Saturday, and we're off from work,
    but we're wearing our suits.
[05:15] ---
    You're right!
[05:17] ---
    I did the same thing!
[05:18] ---
    KICHIJOJI REALTY
[05:21] ---
    Oh, you're Mr. Momose, right?
[05:24] ---
    Uh, yes.
[05:26] ---
    I've been waiting for you.
    I'm Sumida of the Kichijoji Realty.
[05:31] ---
    Nice to meet you.
[05:33] ---
    All right, let's go look at tons
    of apartments! Hurray!
[05:37] ---
    Right!
[05:39] ---
    This place is a real bargain!
[05:39] ---
    FIRST APARTMENT
[05:43] ---
    The walls are a bit thin, but...
[05:45] ---
    Shut up!
[05:45] ---
    BANG
[05:46] ---
    SECOND APARTMENT
[05:47] ---
    This place is close to the station.
    It's so close...
[05:51] ---
    that it tends to sway a little!
[05:55] ---
    THIRD APARTMENT
[05:55] ---
    Now this apartment is spacious!
[05:57] ---
    Since it's geared towards families...
[05:59] ---
    Hurry up and finish your lunch!
[06:00] ---
    No!
[06:01] ---
    THUMP THUMP THUMP
[06:03] ---
    The children upstairs
    leave the water running,
[06:07] ---
    so sometimes it leaks.
[06:11] ---
    FOURTH APARTMENT
[06:11] ---
    This apartment is very quiet.
[06:14] ---
    Since there's a cemetery next door.
[06:16] ---
    HEART BEAT
[06:17] ---
    Just because there are graves, it doesn't
    mean that something will haunt you.
[06:21] ---
    Something?
[06:22] ---
    W-Would it be okay
    to open the closet doors?
[06:25] ---
    Sure.
[06:26] ---
    EXPEL EVIL SPIRITS
[06:34] ---
    All right!
    I'm gonna explore the house today!

[06:41] ---
    The missing button...
[06:47] ---
    The missing button...
[06:49] ---
    It's not like I'm looking for it...
[06:52] ---
    or anything...
[06:56] ---
    It's nowhere to be found.
[07:05] ---
    If I find that button...
[07:07] ---
    OWNER'S OVERJOYED FACE
[07:07] ---
    Yay. Yay.
[07:11] ---
    I'm so gonna find it!
[07:11] ---
    ZOOM
[07:13] ---
    Where is it?
[07:16] ---
    Where is it?
[07:20] ---
    I'm so sorry that I couldn't
    show you anything promising!
[07:25] ---
    Oh, no. I only just started looking.
[07:28] ---
    Next time, I'll find you
    something amazing. I promise you!
[07:32] ---
    Thanks, I'm counting on you.
[07:34] ---
    Right!
[07:35] ---
    Oh, would you like me
    to drive you back, closer to home?
[07:38] ---
    That's all right. Thank you very much.
[07:42] ---
    CAFE RESTAURANT G
[07:45] ---
    You must be tired. Are you okay?
[07:47] ---
    I'm fine. Are you all right, Manager?
[07:51] ---
    You were swamped, and did a lot of overtime
    this week, so you must be exhausted.
[07:55] ---
    I made you come with me
    on your day off. I'm so sorry.
[07:59] ---
    No, I'm totally fine. This was actually
    a nice change of pace for me.
[08:07] ---
    I'm going to get some more coffee.
[08:08] ---
    Me, too, then.
[08:13] ---
    Momose, there's no need for you
    to be in a rush to move out.
[08:17] ---
    What?
[08:18] ---
    I'm fine with you staying as long as you like.
[08:21] ---
    So just take your time looking,
    until you find a place that you really like.
[08:26] ---
    Manager.
[08:28] ---
    It's not just me.
[08:30] ---
    I'm sure that Hakutou
    feels the same way.
[08:33] ---
    SPURT
[08:34] ---
    It came out from the wrong spout!
[08:42] ---
    What's the matter?
[08:48] ---
    I think I'll play with Hakutou
    with this caterpillar toy.
[08:51] ---
    Sounds good! I'd like to play, too.
[08:54] ---
    What?
[08:56] ---
    Oops, that was an audacious thing to say.
[09:01] ---
    Come on.
[09:08] ---
    NODDING OFF
[09:13] ---
    WHOA
[09:14] ---
    I'm sorry!
[09:15] ---
    Go ahead and sleep. I'll wake you up
    when we get to the station.
[09:18] ---
    No, no, that's all right!
    Sorry I leaned on you.
[09:23] ---
    So embarrassing. But Manager
    makes me feel so secure.

[09:32] ---
    So chummy!
[09:34] ---
    SNORE SNORE
[09:34] ---
    SO CHUMMY, THEY RODE PAST
    THEIR STOP TOGETHER
[09:42] ---
    Uh-oh, not good.
[09:44] ---
    I got tired and fell asleep.
[09:51] ---
    The sky is red.
[09:53] ---
    My owner will be coming home soon.
[09:55] ---
    BED-HEAD
[09:57] ---
    That button...
    I never managed to find it.

[10:02] ---
    Ever since I came to this house,
    my owner's been giving me all kinds of things.

[10:06] ---
    MUNCH MUNCH
[10:07] ---
    He gives me food, he pets me...
[10:10] ---
    LEAP
[10:10] ---
    He gives me toys,
    and talks to me in a gentle voice.

[10:15] ---
    And yet, I haven't given him anything yet.
[10:22] ---
    That's why I wanted to find that button
    and give it to him as a present.

[10:30] ---
    Stop crying and search for it!
[10:34] ---
    THE SHIRT HE WORE THIS MORNING
[10:35] ---
    Maybe it's on this one.
[10:38] ---
    I'm home.
[10:40] ---
    Huh? Where's Hakutou?
[10:42] ---
    He always comes to the door.
    Something's not right.
[10:45] ---
    HE THINKS HE'S HIDING
[10:46] ---
    I can't possibly face him.
[10:51] ---
    Hey, found him.
[10:57] ---
    Pretending to be a caterpillar?
[11:00] ---
    Hakutou, thanks
    for watching over the house.
[11:06] ---
    Here you go,
    it's a caterpillar toy for you.
[11:09] ---
    I haven't given you anything yet,
    so I can't accept this caterpillar.

[11:13] ---
    POKE
    POKE
[11:17] ---
    Looking at your face makes all my fatigue
    from work melt away.
[11:24] ---
    Thanks for soothing me everyday.
[11:29] ---
    So without my even knowing it,
    I've been giving him something after all.

[11:38] ---
    Hey, bed-head.
[11:44] ---
    The button was caught on your collar.
[11:50] ---
    I found it thanks to your
    bed-head, Hakutou. Thanks.
[11:54] ---
    He looks happy!
[11:56] ---
    Yay!
[11:57] ---
    Huh? What? Squeeze me?
[11:59] ---
    I never said that!
[12:04] ---
    Manager has soothed me
    countless times, too.

[12:09] ---
    Manager? Thank you for everything.
[12:13] ---
    What's this, all of a sudden?
[12:14] ---
    Oh, I just wanted
    to thank you again myself.
[12:24] ---
    They're gonna start displaying
    your aquarium ad today, right?
[12:28] ---
    Yeah.
[12:29] ---
    Manager and I are heading
    to the aquarium to pay our respects.
[12:29] ---
    Right. Right. So I'll be bringing
    the new materials...
[12:32] ---
    Oh, really? Sounds fun!
[12:35] ---
    CRAMP
[12:37] ---
    Oh, no, it's nothing. Right.
[12:40] ---
    My neck cramped up.
[12:42] ---
    Understood.
[12:44] ---
    All right, I'll be stopping by
    at a later date.
[12:46] ---
    Yes. Right. I'll be looking forward to that.
[12:51] ---
    FIDGET FIDGET
[12:51] ---
    What? No way.
    He can't take his eyes off me!

[13:00] ---
    An ad that I created
    is right here in this station!

[13:04] ---
    I can't see it.
    My eyes are all blurry with tears.

[13:07] ---
    Don't cry, Momose! If you cry,
    Manager won't know what to do.

[13:10] ---
    He's bawling!
[13:13] ---
    I was moved because I saw firsthand
    how hard you worked on it.
[13:16] ---
    Sorry. I'll stop crying now.
[13:18] ---
    Manager.
[13:19] ---
    Fishies! So cute!
[13:23] ---
    He's looking at the ad!
[13:26] ---
    Please come to the aquarium.
[13:36] ---
    Come to think of it, this café...
[13:39] ---
    Momose, what's wrong?
[13:40] ---
    Oh, nothing.
[13:42] ---
    I just remembered that this is the café
    where Mr. Kurono used to lecture me a lot.
[13:45] ---
    At this café?
[13:46] ---
    Yes. My old company
    isn't far from here, so...
[13:50] ---
    Oh, but I'm totally fine now.
[13:53] ---
    I'm happy because of my first ever ad,
    and you're here by my side, so...
[14:00] ---
    Mr. Kurono?
[14:02] ---
    Let's go!
[14:05] ---
    - Momose?
    - What?
[14:07] ---
    My neck just cramped up.
    It must be a habit now.
[14:10] ---
    Manager!
[14:15] ---
    Sorry. It's fine now.
[14:17] ---
    Thank goodness.
[14:18] ---
    Lately, my body's been totally stiff
    from all the desk work.
[14:23] ---
    Anyway, was that him? Your old boss?
[14:25] ---
    Oh, no. I'm sure it was a mistake.
    Sorry about that.
[14:30] ---
    That's right, it was a mistake.
    It's all good!

[14:35] ---
    For the first time in a long time,
    my stomach...

[14:35] ---
    PIERCING PAIN
[14:37] ---
    Oh. What happened at that café...
[14:41] ---
    I remember now.
[14:43] ---
    He yelled at me for acting friendly
    with a co-worker.

[14:47] ---
    Do you come to work to have fun?
[14:50] ---
    I'm sorry.
[14:52] ---
    Looking back, that was power harassment
    designed to isolate me.

[14:56] ---
    Give me your phone.
[14:57] ---
    What?
[14:58] ---
    I'm going to delete your contacts,
    and block them.
[15:05] ---
    Just hand it over already!
[15:07] ---
    And then he just went ahead
    and blocked everyone.

[15:11] ---
    Mr. Momose!
[15:14] ---
    I'm sorry. Would you mind waiting
    another 20 minutes?
[15:17] ---
    Uh, right. That's fine.
[15:22] ---
    Do you want to look around while we wait?
[15:24] ---
    Yes.
[15:25] ---
    Forget about Mr. Kurono.
    Forget about him.

[15:29] ---
    Okay, I've forgotten him!
[15:31] ---
    That penguin show was fun!
[15:33] ---
    I got splashed with water
    by those penguins!
[15:36] ---
    And I got splashed
    with water by Mr. Kurono.
[15:38] ---
    Water?
[15:41] ---
    That businessman.
    He's been watching Momose for a while.

[15:46] ---
    Wait, that envelope's
    from Momose's old company.

[15:52] ---
    His old boss is chasing after him!
[15:54] ---
    I got stabbed by a jellyfish
    years ago, you know.
[15:57] ---
    I got stabbed by Mr. Kurono
    with a ballpoint pen, too.
[16:01] ---
    If Momose finds out,
    he'll get agitated.

[16:04] ---
    What should I do?
[16:06] ---
    All right!
[16:08] ---
    M-Manager?
[16:09] ---
    Let's lose that old boss of yours!
[16:15] ---
    Momose! Check it out!
[16:17] ---
    There are flounders here!
    Wait, or are they flatfish? Which?
[16:21] ---
    Here's a sea lion!
[16:22] ---
    It's a seal.
[16:24] ---
    This fish looks like a rock.
[16:26] ---
    Oh, it really is a rock.
[16:28] ---
    ROCK
[16:29] ---
    Hey, look!
    This stuffed animal's so squishy.
[16:33] ---
    Wait, where'd he go?
[16:34] ---
    HE LOST MOMOSE
[16:36] ---
    TO APOLOGIZE FOR LOSING HIM
[16:37] ---
    Manager.
[16:38] ---
    He started running so enthusiastically,
[16:40] ---
    and he bought me this stuffed animal.
[16:43] ---
    He must've been looking out for me
    because I was so gloomy.

[16:46] ---
    CRAMP
[16:49] ---
    Now my leg's cramped up.
[16:51] ---
    I really wanted
    to enjoy myself today, too.

[16:55] ---
    Because this is the big day that I've been
    waiting for since I switched jobs.

[17:00] ---
    But instead...
[17:02] ---
    I'm still shackled
    by my memories of the past.

[17:06] ---
    Nothing's changed.
    I haven't moved on at all.

[17:14] ---
    Uh-oh!
[17:15] ---
    Here he comes! Kurono.
[17:18] ---
    Ow.
[17:19] ---
    So the guy I saw earlier,
    it was Mr. Kurono, after all!
[17:19] ---
    TO SCARED TO LOOK
[17:32] ---
    Momose, sorry.
[17:36] ---
    Getting water splashed on you,
    getting stabbed with a ballpoint pen...
[17:40] ---
    That version of you from the past
    is too far away from me to protect.
[17:49] ---
    But not anymore.
[17:53] ---
    And that's because...
[18:03] ---
    you've tried your best, step by step,
    to walk all this way towards me.
[18:12] ---
    I thought that I hadn't moved on at all.
[18:18] ---
    But I've managed to walk a long way.
[18:28] ---
    Oh, right. That's why...
[18:32] ---
    That's why...
[18:34] ---
    The me from those days
    wanted more than anything...

[18:40] ---
    is right in front of me now.
[18:48] ---
    So in order to protect it, I'm also...
[18:54] ---
    I'm going to become stronger!
[18:57] ---
    Momose.
[18:59] ---
    Mr. Kurono.
[19:00] ---
    No, it's not! It's someone else!
[19:04] ---
    That's not your former boss?
[19:07] ---
    It's not Mr. Kurono.
[19:11] ---
    I'm so sorry.
[19:15] ---
    You're Momose's former colleague?
[19:17] ---
    Yes. My name is Fujiwara. I never thought
    I'd be mistaken for Mr. Kurono!
[19:23] ---
    Uh, what's this for?
[19:25] ---
    My apology for mistaking you for
    someone else. I'm really sorry about that.
[19:28] ---
    No, no, it's touching you care about
    your subordinate so much!
[19:32] ---
    Momose, I see that
    you've found a great boss.
[19:35] ---
    Yeah.
[19:36] ---
    Since you were with someone who looked
    like a boss, I wasn't sure if I should talk to you.
[19:40] ---
    But I had to because I needed
    to tell you something important.
[19:42] ---
    Something important?
[19:45] ---
    Momose, you're still blocking me,
    aren't you?
[19:50] ---
    I unblocked you! Sorry!
[19:52] ---
    Hey, it's okay.
    Mr. Kurono's the one to blame.
[19:55] ---
    Taking over your phone
    and blocking your friends...
[19:58] ---
    What is he, a jealous boyfriend?
[20:01] ---
    But now we can contact
    each other again, right?
[20:04] ---
    I'll send you the latest news
    on Mr. Kurono!
[20:06] ---
    That won't be necessary.
[20:08] ---
    By the way, Mr. Kurono got splashed with water
    today by the janitor, and he's super-annoyed.
[20:14] ---
    Divine punishment.
[20:17] ---
    He's not as bad as Mr. Kurono, but my own boss
    is really irritable lately, and it's so draining.
[20:22] ---
    Are you okay?
[20:23] ---
    Yeah. Looking at the aquarium ad
    soothed me.
[20:28] ---
    And I wanted to feel even more soothed,
    so I just came over.
[20:31] ---
    And then I found you.
[20:34] ---
    The aquarium ad...
[20:36] ---
    Oh, yes. It went on display
    at the station today.
[20:39] ---
    I took a photo. Would you like to see it?
[20:47] ---
    It was so adorable, it healed me.
[20:51] ---
    The ad that I created...
[20:56] ---
    Mr. Momose!
[20:59] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[21:01] ---
    No, no.
[21:02] ---
    You see, the "Sea Employee" ad that
    you created is generating a lot of buzz,
[21:07] ---
    and I've been fielding tons
    of calls about it!
[21:10] ---
    What?
[21:11] ---
    You made it, Momose? Wow!
[21:14] ---
    It's all thanks to you, Manager.
[21:17] ---
    No. It's because of your talent.
[21:25] ---
    Momose, you sure did a great job.
[21:28] ---
    You know, you're really squishy, Momose.
[21:31] ---
    It was fun celebrating over drinks with you!
[21:33] ---
    Manager! The station's this way!
[21:36] ---
    Huh? Momose...
[21:38] ---
    This city, which was so full
    of painful memories...

[21:42] ---
    Tonight, it looks like it's sparkling.
[23:29] ---
    Hello?
[23:29] ---
    Mr. Momose!
    Thank you for your business!

[23:32] ---
    This is Sumida from the Kichijoji Realty.
[23:34] ---
    I've found a great apartment for you!
[23:37] ---
    What?

[00:07] ---
    What? You still haven't found
    a new place yet?
[00:10] ---
    No. I'm going to another viewing
    this weekend.
[00:13] ---
    Is that right?
    I hope you find a place soon.
[00:17] ---
    Yeah.
[00:17] ---
    Momose.
[00:20] ---
    Would you mind going shopping
    with me on our way home?
[00:22] ---
    Yes, if you're okay with my company.
[00:25] ---
    What are you shopping for?
[00:26] ---
    A Christmas present for Hakutou.
[00:29] ---
    Oh, right.
    It's that time of year already, huh?
[00:32] ---
    I know nobody's going to give me
    a Christmas present, anyway.
[00:38] ---
    I haven't gotten one
    for the past few years, either.
[00:40] ---
    Me, neither.
[00:42] ---
    Me, neither.
[00:43] ---
    My comrades!
[00:45] ---
    Hey, then why don't we exchange gifts
    among the four of us?
[00:49] ---
    A slightly early Christmas party!
[00:51] ---
    I'm in! I'm so in!
[00:53] ---
    Then we can do it at my place,
    if you want.
[00:55] ---
    - What? You sure?
    - Yes.
[00:57] ---
    Yay! We're gonna party at Manager's place!
    What should I wear?
[01:01] ---
    I'll be going as a reindeer.
[01:03] ---
    Ever since my abusive boss
    damaged my spirit and my health,

[01:08] ---
    this'll be my first Christmas!
[02:42] ---
    EPISODE 12
    BE BACK SOON...!?
[02:42] ---
    Momose, thanks for going
    shopping with me.
[02:46] ---
    It would've been tough, buying a huge gift
    like this on my own. I owe you one.
[02:50] ---
    No problem. I got to buy something
    for Hakutou too, so it was fun.
[02:57] ---
    When was the last time
    I bought a Christmas gift?

[03:03] ---
    Wait.
[03:05] ---
    Actually, have I even celebrated Christmas
    in the last few years?

[03:11] ---
    Let's see... Let's see...
[03:15] ---
    All I can remember is being harassed
    by my drunk ex-boss at the parties.

[03:21] ---
    How long did you believe
    in Santa Claus, Momose?
[03:25] ---
    I'm sorry!
[03:29] ---
    Momose, are you telling me...
[03:32] ---
    He knows that I'm depressed now because
    I remembered my ex-boss!

[03:37] ---
    He's gonna be exasperated with me!
[03:39] ---
    ...that you still believe in Santa Claus?
[03:39] ---
    SORRY
[03:44] ---
    There is! A Santa Claus...
[03:46] ---
    Uh, thank you very much!
[03:49] ---
    What are you going to ask Santa
    to bring you? As a gift?
[03:52] ---
    Huh? Um... Peach tea?
[03:55] ---
    Sounds good.
    You like that tea, don't you?
[04:01] ---
    There's no such thing as Santa Claus.
[04:03] ---
    Only little babies believe in Santa Claus!
[04:07] ---
    Listen to me! Good little boys and girls
    put up stockings, and go to bed early!

[04:14] ---
    I'm all grown up now!
[04:18] ---
    This is good, right here.
[04:20] ---
    I'll hide it until Christmas Eve.
[04:22] ---
    Bet you can't wait to give it to Hakutou!
[04:31] ---
    I can't wait for the Christmas party!
[04:34] ---
    What should we do about the food?
[04:37] ---
    I'll make it.
[04:39] ---
    I'll help!
[04:41] ---
    I'll make something, too.
[04:43] ---
    HONEY-FLAVORED
[04:43] ---
    I'm going to smother honey
    all over a cake!
[04:45] ---
    Wow, please don't.
[04:51] ---
    Hey. The yellow bird...
[04:53] ---
    He's here today, too.
[04:54] ---
    Yeah.
[04:58] ---
    I hope you find a good place
    during today's viewing.
[05:03] ---
    Yes. Me, too.
[05:10] ---
    The place I'm showing you today
    is a little bit far from the city.
[05:16] ---
    But it's spacious! New!
    And quiet! Yes!
[05:20] ---
    It says it's ten minutes
    from the station. Seems convenient.
[05:23] ---
    Oh. That's ten minutes by car.
[05:25] ---
    And by the way, the one facility
    within ten minutes' walking distance is...
[05:30] ---
    Kumatte!
[05:31] ---
    Kumatteland!
[05:33] ---
    So close!
[05:33] ---
    KUMATTELAND
[05:34] ---
    It's far from your office, but you'll get there
    in no time on the special express.
[05:38] ---
    The air's so clean.
[05:40] ---
    And Kumattechan comes to the nearby
    convenience store on his breaks!
[05:44] ---
    I kinda want to see that.
[05:48] ---
    Also, about the facilities here...
[05:51] ---
    Yes?
[05:54] ---
    The balcony's over here,
    and your closet's over there.
[06:01] ---
    Thank you for taking the time
    to come all the way out here.
[06:04] ---
    But I really do recommend that property,
    so if you like it, please call me sooner than later!
[06:23] ---
    I have a feeling we forgot something.
[06:25] ---
    Sauce, sweet sake, check.
[06:28] ---
    Vinegar, check.
[06:30] ---
    Hey! Wine vinegar!
[06:32] ---
    What? Wise visitor?
[06:37] ---
    Oh, you said wine vinegar.
[06:40] ---
    That was way off base.
[06:44] ---
    Manager, thank you for coming
    to the viewing with me today.
[06:50] ---
    Sure. I had a good time, too.
[06:53] ---
    Did you like that apartment, Momose?
[06:57] ---
    Oh, uh...
[07:00] ---
    I've been dragging him all over the place.
    I really need to make up my mind.

[07:05] ---
    Y-Yes! I liked it a lot.
[07:10] ---
    I see.
[07:14] ---
    KUMATTELAND
[07:15] ---
    If I start living there...
[07:17] ---
    No more stopping by the supermarket
    on our way home.

[07:21] ---
    No more eating
    Manager's delicious cooking.

[07:24] ---
    No more seeing Hakutou's face every day.
[07:27] ---
    No more heading
    to the convenience store at night.

[07:30] ---
    No more bird-watching
    in the morning together.

[07:34] ---
    That'll be the end of it all.
[07:38] ---
    Suddenly, it's really starting to sink in.
[07:41] ---
    We won't even see each other on the train
    anymore, since we'll be taking different lines.
[07:51] ---
    No more commuting together, even...
[07:56] ---
    M-Manager, I...
[07:59] ---
    You know what...
[08:01] ---
    You know what, I'm gonna
    go get some wine vinegar!
[08:09] ---
    I'm home.
[08:23] ---
    DEAR MOMOSE
[08:23] ---
    A letter?
[08:28] ---
    DEAR MOMOSE,
    JUST BECAUSE YOU'VE SAVED UP ENOUGH
    MONEY TO MOVE, IT DOESN'T MEAN YOU
    HAVE TO BE IN A RUSH TO FIND A NEW PLACE.
[08:28] ---
    YOU CAN STAY HERE
    AS LONG AS YOU LIKE
[08:28] ---
    RENT CAN BE PAID
    IN MILLET DUMPLINGS
[08:34] ---
    Not only is this cute, it's so kind!
[08:37] ---
    SHIROSAKI
    MOMOSE
[08:41] ---
    Welcome!
[08:43] ---
    It's Santa Kumattechan
    and Chief Reindeer.
[08:46] ---
    I'm Kinjo the Tree! Merry Christmas!
[08:50] ---
    Welcome. Merry Christmas!
[08:52] ---
    Manager has his bangs down,
    and he's wearing casual clothes!
[08:56] ---
    Th-That's how he looks everyday.
[08:59] ---
    You've one-upped me, Momose!
[09:02] ---
    Shirosaki, I bought some champagne
    and a Santa hat for you.
[09:05] ---
    Thank you very much!
[09:07] ---
    Hey, that's right!
[09:08] ---
    Here's a Santa hat for you, too.
[09:12] ---
    Yay!
[09:13] ---
    And this is for Hakutou.
[09:18] ---
    Hey.
[09:19] ---
    There you are! Hakutou, you're adorable!
[09:23] ---
    Hey, look at all the people here.
[09:26] ---
    So fluffy!
[09:27] ---
    - Long time no see, Hakutou!
    - Please look at me!
[09:31] ---
    KICK KICK KICK
[09:34] ---
    Now, then...
[09:35] ---
    Cheers!
[09:38] ---
    You cooked all this, Manager?
[09:40] ---
    Well, I had help from Momose.
[09:43] ---
    No, no, I didn't do anything.
[09:46] ---
    Hot pot's the main dish?
[09:48] ---
    Yes.
[09:51] ---
    Kiritanpo hot pot, Christmas version.
[09:56] ---
    I'm just going to dig in now!
[09:58] ---
    I think I'll join you.
[09:59] ---
    Then me, too!
[10:05] ---
    Delicious!
[10:08] ---
    Gotta say,
    I'm beyond jealous of you, Momose!
[10:11] ---
    The flavor...
[10:12] ---
    I know nobody wants to come
    to a party at my house.
[10:16] ---
    I'd love to go to a party
    at your place next time, Chief.
[10:19] ---
    Shirosaki! Love you!
[10:21] ---
    Chief, no jumping the gun!
[10:25] ---
    Okay guys, what we've
    all been waiting for...
[10:28] ---
    Let's exchange gifts!
[10:33] ---
    All right.
[10:36] ---
    Three, two...
[10:39] ---
    Let's start with the gift
    that Chief picked!
[10:42] ---
    Oh, that one's from me.
[10:44] ---
    It's so orthodox,
    I'm not sure if you'll like it.
[10:47] ---
    No worries! Chief's already crying,
    and he hasn't even opened it yet.
[10:52] ---
    Well, here I am, divorced and lonely,
[10:56] ---
    and I've been invited to this party,
    and I'm even getting a gift.
[10:59] ---
    I'm just so choked up right now.
[11:04] ---
    Not only that, but it's a handkerchief!
[11:06] ---
    It's like you predicted that I'd be in tears!
[11:09] ---
    Amazing work, Momose.
[11:13] ---
    Next! Open your gift, Manager!
[11:16] ---
    This present happens to be from...
[11:19] ---
    Me!
[11:20] ---
    Clothes?
[11:23] ---
    FLUFFY
[11:24] ---
    Fluffy, casual clothes!
[11:28] ---
    It's fluffy and comfortable.
[11:31] ---
    I feel like I've turned into Hakutou.
    Thanks, Kinjo.
[11:34] ---
    My owner's grown some fur, too!
[11:37] ---
    Next! Open your gift, Momose!
[11:40] ---
    Who's this present from?
[11:42] ---
    Me. It's a hand-knit scarf.
[11:45] ---
    Wow! It looks like something
    you see in the shops!
[11:47] ---
    So jeal...
[11:52] ---
    I made it way too long.
[11:53] ---
    That's crazy long!
[11:55] ---
    I'll fix it by Christmas.
[11:57] ---
    Why not wear it together on your commute?
[12:00] ---
    Thank you so much!
    I'll always treasure it!
[12:04] ---
    Last but not least, I'm opening mine.
[12:10] ---
    Could it be Kumattechan merch?
[12:17] ---
    An expensive business card holder?
[12:19] ---
    Yes.
[12:19] ---
    I'm actually thrilled about this!
[12:21] ---
    Are you sure I can have it?
[12:23] ---
    Yes.
[12:24] ---
    Yay! Thanks!
[12:26] ---
    Since it was from you, Chief, I thought it
    would be Kumattechan merch or something weird.
[12:30] ---
    There's one more gift inside.
[12:36] ---
    You're right. A giant ribbon?
[12:45] ---
    Your present is yours truly!
[12:48] ---
    Wow. Where should I hang you?
[12:51] ---
    Who knew that would be the punch line?
[13:00] ---
    - Single bells...
    - I'll clean up.
[13:08] ---
    By the way, Momose, did you go
    to that viewing yesterday?
[13:12] ---
    How was it?
[13:13] ---
    Yeah, it was a really nice place,
    but I haven't contacted them yet.
[13:17] ---
    What? You'd better hurry,
    or someone else might take it.
[13:20] ---
    You're right.
[13:27] ---
    Hey, but I get it.
[13:29] ---
    I can tell that you're having a blast
    living with Manager and Hakutou.
[13:33] ---
    Moving out would be sad, huh?
[13:38] ---
    Hey! We'll miss the last train!
[13:42] ---
    Chief! Let's head home!
[13:45] ---
    No, we're all gonna live here together.
[13:49] ---
    What? We can just get together
    again another time!
[13:52] ---
    Right, Momose?
[13:54] ---
    Yeah!
[13:55] ---
    All right!
[13:56] ---
    Chief! Come on, let's go!
[14:12] ---
    He's right. Even if I move
    somewhere far away,

[14:16] ---
    we can always get together
    like we did tonight.

[14:19] ---
    And most of all...
[14:26] ---
    Just because it would make me sad,
[14:28] ---
    that doesn't give me the right to impose
    on Manager's kindness forever.

[14:32] ---
    After all, that day at the aquarium,
    I made up my mind to become strong.

[14:38] ---
    I'm going to move forward!
[14:41] ---

[14:49] ---
    The yellow bird...
[14:55] ---
    KICHIJOJI REALTY
[14:59] ---
    Yes. I can move in right away.
[15:04] ---
    I'll go and sign the contract tomorrow.
[15:05] ---
    Right. Right. Thank you very much.
[15:09] ---
    Please go ahead
    and make the arrangements.
[15:12] ---
    Yes! Thank you for all your help!
[15:23] ---
    Manager and Hakutou.
    Good morning!
[15:27] ---
    Morning.
[15:33] ---
    You've decided on a place?
[15:35] ---
    Uh, yes.
[15:37] ---
    I'm sorry that I made the decision
    without consulting you.
[15:41] ---
    I-Is that all right with you?
[15:44] ---
    Sure. If it's somewhere you'll be happy
    to live, it'll make me happy, too.
[15:49] ---
    Manager.
[15:53] ---
    It's empty.
[15:58] ---
    Thank you so much
    for your kind words.
[16:02] ---
    So you're signing the contract tomorrow?
[16:05] ---
    Yes. I'm thinking of going after work.
[16:08] ---
    I see. You be careful, okay?
[16:13] ---
    After that, time seemed to go by so fast.
[16:15] ---
    KICHIJOJI REALTY
[16:18] ---
    Congratulations on closing the deal!
[16:21] ---
    Moving on Christmas Day, how lovely!
[16:38] ---
    And then, before I knew it,
    it was the day before I'd be moving out.

[16:46] ---
    Can I pack this in the moving box?
[16:48] ---
    That belongs to you, Manager.
[16:53] ---
    Hey, Hakutou.
[16:55] ---
    Wait, why is he holding my sock so tight?
[16:58] ---
    Huh? I thought you'd left it there so
    you could put his presents inside.
[17:05] ---
    Hey, that's right. The cat tower.
[17:09] ---
    My present's not going to fit
    inside that sock, huh?
[17:12] ---
    Let's put it together!
[17:27] ---
    And that's how we spent
    our last night living as roommates.

[17:37] ---
    Are you sure you don't need help
    at your new place?
[17:40] ---
    Oh, I'm sure.
    I don't have a lot of stuff.
[17:46] ---
    Hakutou. Thank you for being my buddy!
[17:50] ---
    I love you! And while I'm at it,
    I love my owner, too!

[17:53] ---
    Hey, I love you, too.
[17:59] ---
    All right. I really appreciate
    everything that you did for me.
[18:03] ---
    I had so much fun every...
[18:15] ---
    Here. Peach tea.
    Santa asked me to give it to you.
[18:20] ---
    Manager.
[18:23] ---
    Thank you so much
    for letting me live here!
[18:27] ---
    I-I'll be going now!
[18:31] ---
    Oh, hey. Would it be all right
    if I left saying "Be back soon"?
[18:36] ---
    That way, it won't be quite as sad.
[18:39] ---
    Hey, what am I saying?
    Calm down!

[18:43] ---
    Then, "See you soon"
    is what I should say, right?
[18:47] ---
    I'm making him worry about me!
[18:49] ---
    How childish is that? So embarrassing.
[18:51] ---
    All right, then, I'll...
[18:55] ---
    Be back soon...!?
[18:59] ---
    What?
[18:59] ---
    GRAB
[19:02] ---
    M-Manager? Are you feeling sick?
[19:10] ---
    Oh, is there something on my leg, then?
[19:19] ---
    Could this mean...
[19:21] ---
    A-Are you sad?
[19:23] ---
    No, of course you're not, right?
    I'm sorry! So sorry!
[19:23] ---
    PANIC
    PANIC
[19:28] ---
    I want to support your decision
    now that you're moving forward.
[19:34] ---
    That's why I made up my mind
    not to do anything to hold you back, Momose.
[19:40] ---
    And yet, at the very end...
[19:44] ---
    Here I am, totally
    holding you back. Physically.
[19:51] ---
    Still, I mean it when I say
    that I want to support your decision.
[19:56] ---
    Manager...
[20:02] ---
    Sorry I did such a childish thing.
[20:04] ---
    N-No, no, you don't need
    to apologize at all.
[20:08] ---
    Can I start over and see you off again?
[20:10] ---
    What? Uh, yes!
[20:14] ---
    Momose.
[20:15] ---
    Yes!
[20:19] ---
    No matter where you are, Momose...
[20:23] ---
    I'll always be watching over you.
[20:28] ---
    See you soon.
[20:35] ---
    Be back soon.
[20:38] ---
    If you cry so hard, you won't
    be able to get on the train.
[20:43] ---
    Train? What was that?
[20:46] ---
    A big vehicle.
[20:49] ---
    Uh, that's not what I meant.
    I'm not taking the train.
[20:55] ---
    Then how are you getting there? By bus?
[20:57] ---
    No, on foot.
[20:59] ---
    If you walk to that apartment...
[21:00] ---
    Kumatte!
[21:03] ---
    ...it'll take at least six hours.
[21:07] ---
    Manager, I thought you'd overheard
    my phone call on the balcony?
[21:11] ---
    Huh? Just the part where you said,
    "I'll go sign the contract tomorrow."
[21:15] ---
    Oh, I see!
[21:18] ---
    The thing is, Manager...
[21:21] ---
    It's true that I'd made up mind that day
    to take the place near Kumatteland.
[21:26] ---
    But just then, that yellow bird showed up,
    and as I was watching it...
[21:32] ---
    I saw someone moving out
    of the apartment in the next building.
[21:38] ---
    Hello? This is Kichi...
[21:39] ---
    The apartment next to where I'm living now!
    Is there a listing for it?
[21:42] ---
    What?
[21:44] ---
    Yes, there is! It just came up!
[21:47] ---
    And the rent?
[21:47] ---
    Within your budget!
[21:58] ---
    And so you see,
[22:00] ---
    we're gonna be neighbors!
[22:03] ---
    Manager!
[22:10] ---
    Give me back my tears!
[22:12] ---
    Then let's be good neighbors.
[22:14] ---
    All right!
