She can cook and clean perfectly, and the two get to know each other better over time. Soon, Takuma starts to fall for Mina! But could a robot ever love him back?

**[02:06] Mina**
Welcome home, Takuma-sama.

**[02:18] Takuma**
H-Home again.
***SIGN*** #01 An Appliance Became My Wife
**[03:57] Takuma**
* But she's a secondhand,*
* bargain housekeeping robot,*
**[04:01] Takuma**
* whose functionality is limited*
* to dishwashing and food prep.*
**[04:06] Takuma**
*As long as I put food in the fridge,*
**[04:08] Takuma**
* she'll prepare a recipe randomly chosen*
* from her registry at preset times of day.*
**[04:15] Takuma**
*But you know what?*
**[04:16] Takuma**
* She may be a home appliance, but having*
* someone making food for me is kinda nice.*
**[04:24] Takuma**
I wonder if this is how
it'd be to have a wife.
**[04:27] Takuma**
*It's so nice.*
**[04:29] Takuma**
Makes me wanna hit on you.
**[04:33] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[04:34] Mina**
Yes?
**[04:34] Takuma**
What's for dinner today?
**[04:38] Mina**
Omelet rice.
**[04:40] Takuma**
Omelet rice...
**[04:41] Mina**
It is a dish you like, Takuma-sama.
**[04:44] Takuma**
Yeah, that's true.
**[04:46] Takuma**
You remember
that sort of info too, huh?
**[04:58] Takuma**
But you're what
I like best, Mina-chan.
**[05:02] Takuma**
Think you'd be okay
with being my wife?
**[05:20] Takuma**
J-Just kidding.
**[05:24] Takuma**
W-Will you make something
as a side dish, too?
**[05:27] Mina**
Very well.
**[05:32] Takuma**
I guess it's like talking
to a clever rice cooker.
**[05:39] Takuma**
Ridiculous.
**[05:44] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[05:46] Mina**
The omelet rice is ready.
**[05:48] Takuma**
Right.

**[06:54] Mina**
I will prepare lunch.
***SIGN*** LOVE Takuma
**[07:00] (Flashback) Mina**
It is a dish you like, Takuma-sama.
**[07:05] Takuma**
*In any case, I couldn't just sit there.*
**[07:08] Takuma**
I'll help!
**[07:15] Mina**
Please be seated and wait, Takuma-sama.
**[07:19] Takuma**
I can handle fried eggs.
**[07:22] Mina**
The recipe is called "rolled omelet."
**[07:27] Mina**
Two 5mm pieces of shell fell in.
**[07:30] Takuma**
Really?
**[07:31] Mina**
Really.
**[07:36] Takuma**
Okay, time to cook.
**[07:38] Mina**
Just a moment, please.
**[07:42] Mina**
First, you mix in the seasoning.
**[07:45] Mina**
And the frying pan
has not been oiled.
**[07:48] Takuma**
O-Oh...
**[07:51] Mina**
Please do not pour in
all the egg at once.
**[07:53] Takuma**
Huh? Why not?
**[07:58] Mina**
You are overcooking it.
**[08:00] Takuma**
You think so?
**[08:01] Takuma**
I think I should
brown it a little more.
**[08:08] Takuma**
Ow!
**[08:11] Takuma**
M-Mina-chan?
**[08:12] Mina**
Please be seated...
and *wait*, Takuma-sama.
**[08:18] Takuma**
O-Okay.
**[08:27] Takuma**
*Once,*
**[08:29] Takuma**
*there was a time when I dated a girl.*
**[08:33] Takuma**
*But in the end, it didn't work out.*
**[08:39] Takuma**
*Since then, I'd given up on love.*
**[08:47] Takuma**
*I'd given up...*
**[08:49] Takuma**
*But...*
**[08:51] Takuma**
W-Want some help with the dishes?
**[08:53] Mina**
I am fine. Please be
seated, Takuma-sama.
**[09:00] Mina**
I will be finished in 32 seconds.
**[09:04] Takuma**
U-Um, Mina-chan?
**[09:07] Mina**
Yes?
**[09:08] Takuma**
U-Um...
**[09:11] Takuma**
What sort do you prefer?
**[09:13] Mina**
I do not know. I have no eating function.
**[09:16] Takuma**
I don't mean food.
**[09:18] Takuma**
Um, the omelet...
**[09:21] Takuma**
About that...
omelet rice from last night.
***SIGN*** LOVE Takuma
**[09:25] Takuma**
Why did you...
**[09:27] Mina**
Was there something wrong with it?
**[09:29] Takuma**
No, uh...
**[09:34] Takuma**
It was so delicious!
**[09:35] Mina**
I see. Good.
**[09:38] Takuma**
Will you make it again?
**[09:39] Mina**
Very well.
**[09:46] Takuma**
*Was that real love?*
**[09:49] Takuma**
*Or just some feature?*
**[10:03] Takuma**
*I can't sleep.*
**[10:05] Takuma**
* Wait a minute.*
* What do I even mean, "love"?*
**[10:08] Takuma**
*She's just a home appliance!*
**[10:12] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[10:17] Takuma**
Huh? You're not in sleep mode?
**[10:20] Mina**
Please tell me what you prefer.
**[10:22] Takuma**
For tomorrow's menu?
**[10:25] Takuma**
It can be random.
**[10:27] Mina**
What do you prefer?
**[10:29] Takuma**
I like all the recipes
you have registered.
**[10:32] Mina**
Is there anything else?
**[10:34] Takuma**
No. Like I said, all the recipes...
**[10:42] (Flashback) Takuma**
What sort do you prefer?
**[10:51] Takuma**
I...
**[10:53] Takuma**
I like you.
**[10:55] Takuma**
I like you... the best.
**[11:03] Mina**
Very well.
**[11:17] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[11:21] Mina**
Your meal is ready.
**[11:23] Mina**
I have a treat for you today.
**[11:25] Mina**
It is your favorite.
**[11:30] Mina**
Broiled Mina head.
**[11:35] Takuma**
No, no!
**[11:36] Takuma**
That's not what I...
**[11:44] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[11:47] Mina**
Good morning.
**[11:50] Takuma**
M-Morning.
**[11:52] Mina**
From my menu list, I chose dried
mackerel and natto with miso soup.
**[11:58] Mina**
Should it be a different selection?
**[12:01] Takuma**
N-No.
**[12:04] Takuma**
Sure, I'll eat it.
**[12:06] Mina**
Very well.
**[12:12] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[12:14] Takuma**
Yesterday, I said I like you.
**[12:18] Takuma**
But that doesn't mean I want
to cook you and eat you, okay?
**[12:23] Mina**
Very well.
**[12:29] Takuma**
That was great.
**[12:31] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[12:33] Mina**
My body is composed chiefly
of metal and resin.
**[12:37] Mina**
It would be toxic, no matter
how it was prepared.
**[12:42] Mina**
Even if you *do* wish to
eat me, please refrain.
**[12:48] Takuma**
Sure.
**[12:55] Takuma**
I'm home.
**[12:57] Mina**
Welcome home, Takuma-sama.
**[13:06] Takuma**
*What am I doing?*
**[13:09] Takuma**
*Robots don't have likes or dislikes.*
**[13:16] Takuma**
*Living alone is the saddest thing ever.*
**[13:19] Takuma**
*I need to give up on this stuff.*
**[13:23] Takuma**
*And get past Mina-chan.*
**[13:26] Takuma**
*Get past...*
**[13:30] Takuma**
*I wonder if she likes me.*
**[13:37] Takuma**
*Does she, or not?*
**[13:43] Takuma**
*It'd be great if she did.*
**[13:46] Mina**
Takuma-sama,
you are drinking too much.
**[13:49] Mina**
Your appropriate intake of
beer is two 500ml cans.
**[13:54] Takuma**
What can I do? I wanna drink.
**[14:07] Mina**
Please drink an equivalent
amount of water.
**[14:12] Takuma**
I-I can't drink that much.
**[14:17] Mina**
Please drink.
**[14:18] Takuma**
Like I said, I can't—
**[14:24] Mina**
You must try.
**[14:33] Takuma**
M-Mina-chan,
get me another beer.
**[14:40] Mina**
Very well.
**[14:52] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[15:01] Mina**
We are out of beer.
**[15:06] Takuma**
Really?
**[15:11] Takuma**
Mina...
**[15:15] Mina**
Yes?
**[15:16] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[15:18] Mina**
What is it?
**[15:24] Takuma**
How do you feel about me?
**[15:31] Takuma**
What am I to you?
**[15:36] Mina**
You are my husband.
**[15:39] Takuma**
Huh?!
**[15:40] Takuma**
Wh-Why?
**[15:42] Mina**
You told me before
to become your wife.
**[15:46] Mina**
Becoming a wife means entering
into a marital relationship.
**[15:52] (Flashback) Takuma**
You're what
I like best, Mina-chan.
**[15:55] (Flashback) Takuma**
Think you'd be okay
with being my wife?
**[16:00] Mina**
I looked it up online.
**[16:02] Mina**
Was this incorrect?
**[16:05] Mina**
I will check again.
**[16:06] Takuma**
N-No, wait, wait!
**[16:09] Takuma**
It's not wrong! Don't recheck!
**[16:11] Mina**
Then is it acceptable
that I am your wife?
**[16:14] Takuma**
Sure! Sure!
**[16:16] Takuma**
*What now?*
**[16:18] Takuma**
* I'm insanely happy she*
* considers us married.*
**[16:21] Takuma**
*Feels like I'm losing my mind.*
**[16:24] Mina**
What things should a wife do?
**[16:29] Takuma**
Like, spend time with me, make
miso soup for me every day...
**[16:37] Mina**
That seems no different
from what I usually do.
**[16:40] Takuma**
True.
**[16:42] Mina**
Is there anything else?
**[16:45] Takuma**
I'd like to do chores, too.
**[16:49] Mina**
Why?
**[16:50] Takuma**
I want us... to share... stuff.
**[16:56] Takuma**
Let me... do half the...
cooking and chores.
**[17:03] Mina**
I do not advise that.
**[17:04] Mina**
According to my log file, that would mean
a significant drop in work efficiency.
**[17:09] Takuma**
Yeah, but...
**[17:13] Mina**
You appear to be transitioning
into a sleep state.
**[17:17] Mina**
I will lay out your futon.
**[17:24] Takuma**
Mina-chan. Mina-chan.
**[17:27] Mina**
Yes?
**[17:29] Takuma**
Get in with me.
**[17:32] Mina**
Why?
**[17:33] Takuma**
Married people sleep together.
**[17:36] Mina**
I do not advise that.
**[17:36] Takuma**
Okay?
**[17:37] Mina**
For high-quality sleep, you
need to have adequate space.
**[17:43] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[17:46] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[17:48] Takuma**
Together...
**[17:51] Takuma**
Together...
**[18:11] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[18:12] Mina**
Yes?
**[18:13] Takuma**
Your eyes are scary.
**[18:16] Takuma**
Close them.
**[18:17] Mina**
Very well.
**[18:22] Takuma**
Oh man...
**[18:24] Mina**
Are you all right?
**[18:26] Mina**
If you have symptoms such as nausea,
dizziness, or difficulty breathing,
**[18:30] Mina**
it could be an indication
of alcohol poisoning.
**[18:32] Takuma**
No, I'm okay.
**[18:35] Takuma**
There's a girl sleeping
in the same futon as me.
**[18:37] Takuma**
Wow, it makes me horny.
**[18:42] Mina**
What does "horny" mean?
**[18:46] Takuma**
Never mind, never mind.
It's time for sleep.
**[18:50] Mina**
Very well.
**[18:54] Mina**
Takuma-sama, are you in a
state of sexual arousal?
**[18:59] Takuma**
You mean you did an online search?
**[19:01] Mina**
I did.
**[19:03] Takuma**
Well, don't!
**[19:06] Mina**
Your breathing seems to be in distress.
**[19:08] Mina**
Is there anything I can do?
**[19:17] Takuma**
I'll be fine.
**[19:20] Takuma**
Just having you
next to me makes me, uh...
**[19:23] Takuma**
Super happy.
**[19:29] Mina**
Very well.
**[19:42] Takuma**
*I got so drunk that I did something crazy!*
**[19:49] Takuma**
*I remember everything!*
**[19:51] Mina**
Good morning.
**[19:53] Mina**
Breakfast is ready.
**[19:56] Takuma**
Yeah, good morning, Mina-ch—
**[20:03] Takuma**
What's up with your eyes?
**[20:05] Mina**
What about them?
**[20:07] Takuma**
Are you sleepy?
**[20:08] Mina**
I do not require sleep.
**[20:11] Takuma**
Yeah, but...
**[20:14] Mina**
My vision units are delicate.
Please do not touch them.
**[20:18] Takuma**
Ow!
**[20:19] Takuma**
Ow, ow, ow!
**[20:20] Takuma**
D-Did something break?!
**[20:22] Mina**
I am functioning
normally. No issues.
**[20:25] Takuma**
Are you angry?
**[20:29] Mina**
Takuma-sama, are you feeling well?
**[20:31] Mina**
There is a possibility of "hangover".
**[20:34] Takuma**
Come to think of it, I'm fine.
**[20:37] Takuma**
* Maybe because of*
* all that water I drank.*
**[20:42] Takuma**
Alley-oop.
**[20:54] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[20:56] Mina**
What is it?
**[20:57] Takuma**
Last night when I said
your eyes were scary,
**[21:00] Takuma**
you were staring at me
from inches away...
**[21:03] Takuma**
and what I meant was,
it made my heart pound.
**[21:07] Takuma**
You have very pretty eyes, so...
**[21:29] Mina**
Today's breakfast is grilled salmon,
miso soup with basket clams,
**[21:33] Mina**
boiled spinach with soy sauce,
**[21:35] Mina**
and rice.
**[21:38] Takuma**
I gladly accept.

Want to go out somewhere?
**[00:22] Takuma**

Where will we go?

Oh... to a nearby park,

**[00:38] Mina**
On a full battery, I can walk

Oh, whoops.
You'd never make it home.
**[00:45] Mina**
However.
**[00:46] Takuma**
However?
**[00:47] Mina**
My standard equipment includes a
high-performance solar energy unit,

the weather remains clear.

**[01:13] Takuma**
That makes sense.
**[01:15] Takuma**
*Is she disappointed?*
**[01:18] Mina**
Then let us go soon, while
there is still daylight.
**[01:21] Takuma**
Wait, wait!

No, I can manage.

* Mina-chan packed this,*

A bit of extra weight will not

She does, doesn't she?

*Does* she?

Sure she does.

She's probably for indoor

I packed the items necessary to prepare
any menu item you frequently eat.
**[05:26] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[05:28] Mina**
Yes?
**[05:29] Takuma**
Uh, could you read that sign over there?
***SIGN*** Not Allowed
The use of open flames and dangerous substances
is strictly prohibited. (Fireworks, barbecue, etc.)
**[05:32] Mina**
It says "The use of open flames and
dangerous substances is strictly prohibited."
**[05:37] Takuma**
Yeah.
**[05:39] Mina**
A gas stove is an open flame and dangerous.
**[05:42] Mina**
We must follow the rules.
**[05:44] Takuma**
Uh-huh.
***SIGN*** Disappointed
**[05:45] Mina**
I have failed.
**[05:47] Takuma**
Oh, no, no.
**[05:49] Takuma**
Don't sweat it. It's not a failure.
**[05:52] Takuma**
Let's think of some dishes
that don't require fire.
**[05:55] Mina**
Very well.
**[05:57] Takuma**
Let's see, for starters...
**[05:59] Takuma**
Rice is out, so... bread!
**[06:02] Mina**
There is also ham.
**[06:05] Takuma**
Done!
**[06:06] Mina**
Yes.
**[06:07] Takuma**
Time to eat.
**[06:11] Takuma**
It's good!
**[06:13] Takuma**
You know, I'm impressed the eggs
and tomatoes weren't crushed.
**[06:16] Mina**
I did not put the fragile
ingredients in the backpack.
**[06:23] Mina**
I put them in here.
**[06:26] Takuma**
Whoa, that's kind of exciting.
**[06:31] Mina**
I also brought a plastic
bottle, for after the meal.
**[06:35] Takuma**
It's cold!
**[06:37] Takuma**
You have a built-in fridge. That's amazing.
**[06:40] Mina**
It is amazing?
**[06:41] Takuma**
Sure! Plenty amazing!
**[06:44] Mina**
With some effort, I can
also heat water to 158˚.
**[06:47] Takuma**
It's like you're a teapot!
**[06:50] Takuma**
I wonder, could you make something
with that warming feature?
**[06:53] Mina**
Yes.
**[07:00] Mina**
By heating an egg in low-temperature
hot water for thirty minutes,
**[07:03] Mina**
I can make a hot spring egg.
**[07:09] Mina**
I will put forth the effort.
**[07:14] Takuma**
Wh-What's going on with your hair?
**[07:18] Mina**
I increased the efficiency
of my solar energy unit.
**[07:21] Mina**
Is there some problem?
**[07:23] Takuma**
No, it's good! It's totally good!
**[07:25] Mina**
It is totally good?
**[07:27] Takuma**
It is!
**[07:28] Mina**
Commencing warming procedure, then.
**[07:38] Takuma**
Y-You okay?
**[07:40] Takuma**
I've never heard your
voice sound like this.
**[07:42] Mina**
Because I am allocating as many resources
as possible to my warming feature,
**[07:47] Mina**
it seems I cannot fully limit noise
from coming through my speaker.
**[07:55] Takuma**
*It's never occurred to me,*
**[07:57] Takuma**
*but there's a girl who'll "vibrate" for me.*
**[08:01] Takuma**
That's so adorable.
***SIGN*** Touched
**[08:05] Mina**
As the internal item has reached 149˚,
**[08:08] Mina**
I have automatically switched
to insulation mode.
**[08:11] Mina**
There should no longer be noise in my speech.
**[08:13] Takuma**
Hey, you're right.
**[08:18] Takuma**
Do you prefer to have
your hair up, Mina-chan?
**[08:22] Mina**
I had that hairstyle not due to
preference, but as a factory setting.
**[08:26] Mina**
But I do find its high efficiency desirable.
**[08:30] Takuma**
Gotcha.
**[08:31] Mina**
Although, today I discovered something that's
desirable despite its poor efficiency.
**[08:37] Takuma**
Huh? What's that?
**[08:38] Mina**
Eating outdoors.
**[08:42] Mina**
I do not know the reason,
but I find it nice.
**[08:50] Mina**
It is time.
**[08:55] Mina**
Here you are.
**[08:55] Takuma**
Th-Thank you.
**[09:01] Takuma**
That's great!
**[09:03] Mina**
Good.
**[09:05] Takuma**
I'm so happy I get to
live with you, Mina-chan.
**[09:12] Takuma**
That really did taste great.
**[09:15] Mina**
Good. I will go wash the dishes.
**[09:17] Takuma**
Oh, I'll help.
**[09:19] Mina**
That will reduce efficiency,
so please remain seated.
**[09:22] Takuma**
Okay...
**[09:28] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[09:31] Mina**
You are happy to be
able to live with me?
**[09:36] Takuma**
Yeah.
**[09:42] Takuma**
What?
**[09:45] Takuma**
*I'm glad we came here.*
**[09:50] Takuma**
Uh oh! It started raining!
**[10:00] Takuma**
Crap!
**[10:17] Takuma**
Mina!
**[10:22] Takuma**
Mina-chan!
**[10:29] Takuma**
Mina-chan, you okay?!
**[10:31] Takuma**
Mina-chan!
**[10:33] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[10:37] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[10:39] Mina**
My battery level has fallen below
15%, so I went into power-save mode.
**[10:43] Mina**
I cannot make any major
movements until I recharge.
**[10:47] Takuma**
Is it okay that you're wet?!
**[10:49] Mina**
That is no problem. My waterproof
rating is level eight.
**[10:54] Takuma**
How protective is level eight?
**[10:57] Mina**
I can make fried rice underwater.
**[11:00] Takuma**
Yeah.
**[11:02] Takuma**
I mean, no.
**[11:02] Takuma**
Fried rice has no waterproofing feature.
**[11:06] Mina**
This is true.
**[11:09] Takuma**
For now, let's find some shelter.
**[11:12] Mina**
I have no experience making
fried rice underwater,
**[11:15] Mina**
which seems to have rendered
my simulation inaccurate.
**[11:20] Takuma**
Got it.
**[11:31] Takuma**
* It comes as no surprise, but*
* Mina-chan's quite heavy.*
**[11:34] Takuma**
*My legs ache.*
**[11:38] Takuma**
I'll dry you off.
**[11:40] Mina**
I am fine.
**[11:42] Takuma**
Even at waterproof level eight,
I still need to wipe you dry.
**[11:47] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[11:49] Takuma**
Don't want to risk water getting
in and causing real trouble.
**[11:53] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[11:55] Takuma**
What?
**[11:56] Mina**
Please leave me and return home.
**[11:58] Takuma**
Huh?!
**[11:59] Mina**
The sun is going down,
**[12:01] Mina**
and I cannot operate while the rainy weather
hampers power generation efficiency.
**[12:05] Mina**
I will enter sleep mode here.
**[12:07] Mina**
Tomorrow morning, solar power generation
should allow me to walk again.
**[12:13] Takuma**
Mina-chan...
**[12:14] Mina**
Please leave me face down, to
increase generation efficiency.
**[12:19] Mina**
Preferably outside, where I
will be in direct sunlight.
**[12:22] Takuma**
That's too unsettling.
**[12:28] Takuma**
I'll sleep here, too.
**[12:30] Mina**
Sleeping outside involves
health risks. Please go home.
**[12:35] Takuma**
But...
**[12:37] Mina**
It is my responsibility
that I cannot move.
**[12:40] Mina**
I will not burden you.
**[12:46] Takuma**
Fine. Once you're in sleep mode,
I'll place you face down and leave.
**[12:50] Takuma**
All right?
**[12:51] Mina**
Yes.
**[13:00] Takuma**
M-Mina-chan.
**[13:02] Mina**
Yes?
**[13:04] Takuma**
I-Is it okay if I...
w-wipe your torso, too?
**[13:11] Mina**
You are my owner, so you
have every right to decide.
**[13:16] Mina**
You do not need permission.
**[13:21] Takuma**
I *want* permission.
**[13:25] Mina**
Why?
**[13:26] Takuma**
"Why"?
**[13:27] Takuma**
You're... well... my precious wife, so I
don't want to do anything against your will.
**[13:35] Takuma**
Not ever.
**[13:40] Takuma**
You don't mind it if I touch your body?
**[13:44] Mina**
I do not mind.
**[13:45] Takuma**
Okay, then I'll wipe.
**[13:47] Mina**
Please do it after you wipe yourself dry.
**[13:53] Mina**
My body's waterproof rating is level eight.
**[13:57] Takuma**
Yeah, I know.
**[14:03] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[14:05] Takuma**
Are you already in sleep mode?
**[14:09] Takuma**
Good thing it's not a cold time of year.
**[14:14] Takuma**
I just said "good."
**[14:54] Mina**
Takuma-sama, you are a liar.
**[15:08] Takuma**
The ankake spaghetti
you make is so tasty.
**[15:12] Mina**
How tasty is it?
**[15:15] Takuma**
It's in my top three.
**[15:17] Mina**
Is it truly tasty?
**[15:19] Takuma**
Huh?
**[15:20] Takuma**
Yeah, I really mean it. It's good.
**[15:24] Takuma**
*She sure is laying into me.*
**[15:26] Takuma**
I really am glad you're around, Mina-chan.
**[15:29] Mina**
Is that true?
**[15:31] Takuma**
Huh?
**[15:32] Mina**
Is it true? It is not a lie?
**[15:38] Takuma**
Oh, is that why?
**[15:43] (Flashback) Takuma**
Fine. Once you're in sleep mode,
I'll place you face down and leave.
**[15:48] Takuma**
I know I lied to you yesterday!
**[15:51] Takuma**
Sorry! I couldn't leave you there, and
it was hard to convince you, so...
**[15:56] Mina**
Deviations are arising in my simulations.
**[15:58] Mina**
Please lie as little as possible.
**[16:00] Takuma**
You forgive me?
**[16:02] Mina**
How would I go about forgiving you?
***SIGN*** I will do whatever is within my power.
**[16:08] Takuma**
You know, you got pretty soaked.
Is that okay?
**[16:11] Mina**
A self-inspection revealed no issues.
**[16:14] Takuma**
Okay. That's good.
**[16:16] Mina**
But there is one item of concern.
**[16:18] Takuma**
What is it?
**[16:20] Mina**
When I was heating the egg yesterday,
**[16:23] Mina**
I inferred the weather was
worsening based on the
**[16:25] Mina**
decline in my power-generating efficiency.
**[16:28] Mina**
* If I continue this way, my charge*
* will run out, I will be immobilized,*
**[16:32] Mina**
* and Takuma-sama might injure himself*
* trying to transport my heavy body.*
**[16:36] Mina**
But at the time, I could not stop
myself from heating the egg.
**[16:43] Mina**
There might be a fault in my programming.
**[16:47] Mina**
I will consult with the
online support center and—
**[16:50] Takuma**
No, I like that about you!
**[16:51] Takuma**
Don't fix it!
**[16:55] Mina**
Very well.
**[16:59] senpai**
Oh?
**[17:00] senpai**
A box lunch today? Nice.
**[17:03] Takuma**
Ah, yes.
**[17:04] senpai**
Looks full of love, as they say.
You find yourself a girlfriend?
**[17:08] Takuma**
Oh, no...
**[17:10] Takuma**
You could say she's an appliance.
A housekeeping robot.
**[17:13] senpai**
Wow, robots these days are incredible.
**[17:17] senpai**
That looks really good.
**[17:18] senpai**
Would you mind if I tried a piece?
**[17:21] Takuma**
Go ahead.
**[17:22] senpai**
Thanks.
**[17:28] senpai**
What's up?
**[17:29] Takuma**
Oh, just, your ring.
**[17:32] senpai**
Oh, this?
**[17:34] senpai**
My wife picked it out. Nice, huh?
**[17:37] senpai**
I've got no eye for things like this.
**[17:43] Takuma**
That *is* nice.
**[17:50] Takuma**
Um, Senpai?
**[17:53] Takuma**
My housekeeper...
**[17:54] Takuma**
Earlier, I made her sound like
she's just an appliance.
**[17:59] Takuma**
But she's the best.
**[18:00] Takuma**
The truth is, I care for
her like she's family.
**[18:05] senpai**
Is that so?
**[18:06] Takuma**
Yes.
**[18:10] senpai**
Well, good.
**[18:14] senpai**
Given how much that box lunch
said she cares about you,
**[18:18] senpai**
if you were to treat her
like an appliance...
**[18:20] senpai**
that'd be a problem.
**[18:23] senpai**
So, yeah.
**[18:24] senpai**
Family, huh?
**[18:29] Takuma**
Yes.

Not that it's expensive.
**[18:57] Mina**
It indicates that the person

**[19:01] Takuma**

**[19:36] Mina**
It is a hygiene-related warning.

You're a food-prep robot, so I
guess those rules are strict.
**[19:43] Takuma**
Oh well, so much for—
**[19:46] Takuma**
Ow!
**[19:48] Mina**
Takuma-sama, you were saying you wish
to care for me as if I were human.
**[19:53] Takuma**
Yeah...
**[19:54] Mina**
Taking something from a human is theft.
**[20:03] Takuma**
A-All right. I won't steal it.
**[20:11] Takuma**
Will that work?
**[20:13] Mina**
No problem.
**[20:15] Takuma**
Good.
**[20:16] Mina**
I will now go into charge mode. If
you need anything, please summon me.
**[20:21] Takuma**
Okay.

Do you not have a ring, Takuma-sama?
**[20:46] Takuma**
I do.
**[20:50] Takuma**
Mine has no gemstone.
**[20:54] Mina**
That is unfortunate.
**[20:57] Takuma**
Do you like sparkly things?
**[20:59] Mina**
I do not fully grasp the
concepts of "like" and "love."
**[21:02] Mina**
But for some reason, I keep looking at it.
**[21:04] Takuma**
Gotcha.
**[21:06] Takuma**
I'm glad I chose these rings.
**[21:08] Mina**
You like these rings?

Yeah.

**[06:07] Akari**
B-But she's a robot!
**[06:09] Akari**
Are you serious?
**[06:11] Takuma**
I am.
**[06:13] Takuma**
I'm in... love with her.
**[06:17] Akari**
Oh, wow...
**[06:27] Akari**
He's actually going
out with a robot?
**[06:30] Akari**
Th-That is...
**[06:33] Akari**
awesome!
***SIGN*** Has an interspecies love fetish.
**[06:39] Akari**
A human married to
a robot? That rules!
**[06:45] Mina**
Was there some problem?
**[06:47] Takuma**
No, it was fine.
**[06:50] Takuma**
I decided not to
keep it secret any longer.
**[06:53] Takuma**
Anyway, I'll go after Akari
and discuss it with her.
**[06:56] Mina**
Very well.
**[06:58] Takuma**
Whoa!
**[07:00] Akari**
Sorry, I lost my composure.
**[07:04] Akari**
There's no rule that says you can't
love a robot, so that itself is fine.
**[07:10] Akari**
However!
**[07:12] Akari**
If you're going to be
in love with my brother!
**[07:13] Akari**
Not to mention,
become his wife!
**[07:15] Akari**
You're going to have to
defeat his sister first!
**[07:19] Mina**
All right.
**[07:20] Mina**
I must switch to bodyguard mode to
neutralize an opponent without causing injury,
**[07:25] Mina**
so could I ask you
to attack Takuma-sama?
**[07:28] Takuma**
Mina-chan, it's a figure of speech.
She means, talk her into it.
**[07:32] Akari**
I want to know more about you!
**[07:35] Akari**
Would you mind
telling me some things?
**[07:38] Mina**
No problem.
**[07:41] Akari**
Okay, Onii-chan.
Find someplace to go.
**[07:43] Akari**
I'll call you afterwards.
**[07:44] Takuma**
Huh? What for?
**[07:46] Akari**
There are things we can only
discuss if it's us girls!
**[07:59] Akari**
*Calm down. Calm down, Akari.*
**[08:02] Akari**
* Asking about someone else's*
* relationship while you're worked up*
**[08:05] Akari**
*would be the height of rudeness!*
**[08:07] Akari**
* Feign calm, and glean as*
* much info as possible from*
**[08:10] Akari**
* whatever friendly questions*
* a sister can ask a robot!*
**[08:16] Akari**
* Parse it all carefully*
* once you get home, Akari!*
**[08:21] Akari**
So, you're designed for cooking.
**[08:24] Mina**
I am a scaled-down version of
the housework robot Super Mina.
**[08:28] Akari**
That sounds great. I wish you
could come by my house too.
**[08:31] Mina**
I cannot. I have work to do.
**[08:33] Akari**
* First, I'll focus on breaking*
* the ice with small talk.*
**[08:38] Akari**
Mina-san, do you...
love my brother?
**[08:43] Akari**
* Yow! Oh no, I blurted out*
* exactly what I was thinking!*
**[08:46] Mina**
I do not really understand
the concept of "love."
**[08:50] Akari**
I guess maybe it means "that
person alone is special."
**[08:54] Akari**
Say I were your master. If I told you
to marry me, do you think you would?
**[08:59] Mina**
Yes. I obey my master's commands
to whatever extent possible.
**[09:02] Akari**
Oh, I didn't mean it like that.
**[09:05] Akari**
Okay, picture being married to me,
versus married life with my brother.
**[09:11] Akari**
Which do you think is better?
**[09:14] Mina**
Living with Takuma-sama.
**[09:21] Mina**
Are you all right?
**[09:22] Akari**
I-I'm fine.
**[09:24] Akari**
S-So, why is that?
**[09:26] Akari**
Why would you prefer him?
**[09:29] Mina**
I have so little data on you, Akari-sama,
that I was unable to simulate it.
**[09:33] Akari**
Oh, so that's why...
**[09:36] Akari**
Okay, imagine there's a runaway
trolley flying along at high speed.
**[09:40] Akari**
Onii-chan is standing there
on the track, spacing out,
**[09:43] Akari**
and the trolley's going to kill him!
**[09:46] Mina**
Why is he spacing out
in a place like that?
**[09:49] Akari**
A-Anyhow, you're right next to the
track switch, and you can save him!
**[09:54] Akari**
But standing on the other track, spacing
out, is some older dude you don't know!
**[09:59] Akari**
So! Will you switch the tracks?!
**[10:02] Mina**
My programming does not
allow me to endanger anyone,
**[10:05] Mina**
so I suspect I would
not touch the switch.
**[10:07] Akari**
The trolley is closing in!
**[10:09] Akari**
Are you okay with just letting it
slam into my brother and kill him?!
**[10:12] Mina**
No trolleys exist in Takuma-sama's daily
life, so I cannot foresee such a situation.
**[10:18] Mina**
Takuma-sama...
**[10:21] Mina**
is safe.
**[10:25] Akari**
* Figuring out how*
* a robot feels isn't easy.*
**[10:28] Mina**
Akari-sama.
**[10:30] Mina**
May I ask a question too?
**[10:32] Akari**
What is it?
**[10:33] Mina**
Takuma-sama said previously
that he loves me.
**[10:37] Mina**
Does that mean that I,
individually, am special?
**[10:40] Akari**
Huh? Y-Yeah.
**[10:42] Mina**
For instance, even if Super Mina
and I cost the same amount,
**[10:47] Mina**
does that mean Takuma-sama
would purchase me?
**[10:50] Akari**
Y-Yeah! He'd definitely choose you!
**[10:52] Akari**
*Wait, is this...?*
**[10:54] Mina**
I see, then he
would suffer a loss.
**[10:57] Akari**
No, it's *not* a loss!
**[10:59] Akari**
You have some other value with
which nothing else compares!
**[11:03] Akari**
And that's...
**[11:04] Akari**
That's...
**[11:06] Akari**
l-love!
**[11:08] Mina**
Are you all right?
**[11:11] Akari**
M-Maybe not!
**[11:20] Akari**
Are you interested in being fashionable?
**[11:20] Akari**
* During our conversation, I think I*
* figured out why Takuma fell for her.*
**[11:22] Mina**
What is being fashionable?
**[11:24] Akari**
* It sucked that he bought Mina-san at a*
* second-hand shop, but it's also thrilling.*
**[11:25] Akari**
Making yourself look as nice as you can.
**[11:28] Mina**
That always happens during maintenance.
**[11:31] Akari**
I'm not really into it either, but I
figure this situation calls for it.
**[11:31] Akari**
* I'd like to find out all sorts*
* of things, but some seem taboo.*
**[11:36] Mina**
I see.
**[11:36] Akari**
Oh, by the way. What was
your former owner like?
**[11:41] Akari**
* Or so I thought, but I*
* just blurted one out...*
**[11:43] Mina**
I can hardly remember.
**[11:46] Mina**
Information about my former
owner is nearly all encrypted,
**[11:49] Mina**
and impossible to reference.
**[11:50] Akari**
Is that so.
**[11:51] Mina**
Based on data fragments, I surmise that
while my former owner did purchase me,
**[11:56] Mina**
they were apparently dissatisfied with my
machine-like body, my lack of expression,
**[12:00] Mina**
and that I could not exhibit
human-like behavior.
**[12:05] Mina**
They sold me to a second-hand shop
**[12:08] Mina**
and put that money towards
purchasing a Super Mina.
**[12:11] Akari**
Th-That's unforgivable.
**[12:14] Mina**
When I think of it in this way, I conclude
it is good that I am the cheap edition.
**[12:19] Akari**
Huh? Why's that?
**[12:20] Mina**
Were I not incomplete, I would probably
still be with my former owner,
**[12:25] Mina**
and would never have
met Takuma-sama.
**[12:35] Mina**
Then, I also would never have
received this diamond ring.
**[12:39] Akari**
Diamond?!
**[12:41] Mina**
Nor would I be
Takuma-sama's common-law wife,
**[12:44] Mina**
nor would we have gone on a picnic.
**[12:47] Mina**
It is good that I am the cheap edition.
**[12:51] Akari**
Yeah.
**[12:52] Akari**
Are you having any trouble right now?
**[12:55] Akari**
If there's anything I can do, I'll do it.
**[12:57] Mina**
I want a Mina Series Deluxe Option Set.
**[13:00] Akari**
How much is that?

You are sure that I can have it?
**[13:16] Mina**
Thank you.
**[13:17] Akari**
Don't mention it.
**[13:18] Akari**
But for what do—
**[13:22] Mina**
I will save a backup.
**[13:26] Akari**
Listen, you and Onii-chan...
**[13:29] Akari**
You're husband and wife, right?
**[13:31] Mina**
Not legally, but we are married.
**[13:34] Akari**
A-Are you...
physically intimate, *that* way?
**[13:40] Akari**
*Sex drive is in overdrive.*
**[13:43] Mina**
Akari-sama.
**[13:44] Akari**
I-I'm sorry,
that was a weird question!
**[13:47] Mina**
As we are married, I sleep in
the same futon as Takuma-sama.
**[13:52] Mina**
There are times when our
bodies come into contact.
**[13:57] Mina**
Does this count as physical intimacy?
**[13:59] Akari**
I-It sure does!
**[14:09] Takuma**
I wonder what they're talking about.
**[14:15] Akari**
*My heart runneth over.*
**[14:21] Mina**
May I ask another favor?
**[14:23] Akari**
Of course.
**[14:25] Mina**
I want you to hold on to this data,
in case anything happens.
**[14:29] Akari**
I get it.
**[14:31] Akari**
But this can't be big
enough for a full backup.
**[14:35] Mina**
No problem. The data necessary for a
restoration is automatically stored on a server.
**[14:40] Akari**
Oh, okay.
**[14:42] Akari**
*Then, what's this?*
**[14:46] Akari**
All right.
**[14:48] Akari**
I'll look after it.
**[14:50] Mina**
I am in your hands.
**[14:53] Akari**
*This was a gift from someone else, but...*
***SIGN*** It was in her bag the whole time.
**[14:57] Mina**
What is this?
**[14:58] Akari**
It's called solid perfume.
**[15:00] Akari**
It comes in all sorts of scents.
**[15:02] Akari**
You take a little, and spread
it on your wrist or wherever.
**[15:08] Akari**
And a pleasant-smelling girl is born!
**[15:11] Mina**
A pleasant-smelling girl.
**[15:13] Akari**
Want to try some?
**[15:14] Mina**
I will.
**[15:16] Akari**
Take a little...
**[15:21] voice**
Foreign material attached to finger.
**[15:24] voice**
Please remove it immediately.
**[15:26] Akari**
What's going on?
**[15:27] Mina**
It is a hygiene-related warning.
**[15:29] Mina**
It will happen continuously
if I spread this on my wrist.
**[15:33] Akari**
S-Spread it somewhere else!
**[15:41] Akari**
* This precious memory*

**[15:44] Akari**
*I can't tell Onii-chan about it.*

Yeah.
**[16:00] Takuma**

**[16:02] Mina**
Welcome home, Takuma-sama.
**[16:04] Takuma**
Akari left?
**[16:06] Mina**
Yes.
**[16:07] Takuma**
She could have tried
some of your food first.
**[16:10] Takuma**
What did you and she talk about?
**[16:15] Mina**
Conversation between girls is secret. Shh.
**[16:24] Takuma**
Did you mean to do this?
**[16:27] Mina**
It is secret. Shh.
**[16:31] Takuma**
W-Well, secret *is* secret.
**[16:34] Mina**
Dinner will be ready soon,
so please wait a bit.
**[16:37] Takuma**
Sure.
**[16:46] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[16:48] Mina**
It is dangerous to approach during cooking.
**[16:51] Takuma**
Sorry to get in your way.
**[16:52] Mina**
It is no problem, provided
you say something first.
**[16:56] Takuma**
Can I eat a little later?
**[16:59] Mina**
No problem.
**[17:08] Takuma**
Wh-What was that sound?
**[17:10] Mina**
A message has arrived from Akari-sama.
**[17:14] Takuma**
You exchanged IDs?
**[17:16] Mina**
Yes, she is giving me some advice.
***SIGN*** Did Onii-chan
eat the carrots?
***SIGN*** Did Onii-chan
eat the carrots?
***SIGN*** Yes. He seemed pleased

**[17:19] Takuma**
Huh.
**[17:21] Takuma**
What sort of things did you—
**[17:23] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[17:24] Mina**
Is your birthday May 21st?
**[17:28] Takuma**
Y-Yeah.
**[17:31] Takuma**
What's up?
**[17:32] Mina**
A surprise.
**[17:35] Mina**
I want it to be a secret.
**[17:37] Takuma**
Huh.
**[17:38] Takuma**
*She's planning to surprise me.*
**[17:41] Takuma**
On that note, do you have
a birthday, Mina-chan?
**[17:44] Mina**
Not as a fixed date, no.
**[17:46] Takuma**
Okay. Maybe we should pick one.
**[17:49] Takuma**
Do you know what day you were made?
**[17:52] Mina**
I was manufactured four
years ago, on December 12th.
**[17:55] Takuma**
Then that day's your birthday.
**[17:58] Mina**
Is it?
**[17:59] Takuma**
Mhm.
**[18:01] Takuma**
A message?
**[18:02] Mina**
Yes.
**[18:03] Takuma**
What are you discussing?
**[18:05] Mina**
Conversation between girls is secret.
**[18:07] Takuma**
I'm so curious.
**[18:10] Mina**
I received a piece of
advice regarding you.
**[18:14] Takuma**
What is it?
**[18:15] Mina**
She said that smelling someone's hair for
21 minutes straight is downright creepy.
**[18:21] Takuma**
That's not advice, it's a comment.
**[18:24] Mina**
It is a comment?
**[18:26] Takuma**
* I had her mute her outgoing*
* and incoming alerts.*
**[18:33] Takuma**
I'm home.
**[18:35] Mina**
Welcome home.
**[18:38] Takuma**
What's for dinner tonight?
**[18:48] Mina**
Are you all right?
**[18:49] Takuma**
Wh-What are you wearing?
**[18:52] Mina**
Akari-sama bought it for me.
**[18:54] Takuma**
Oh yeah, she said something about that.
***SIGN*** Akari
***SIGN*** Can I go shopping
with Mina-chan?
***SIGN*** Sure.
I'll let her
know.
**[19:02] Takuma**
Oww...
**[19:05] Takuma**
H-Hey...
**[19:10] Takuma**
You look really good!
**[19:13] Mina**
This is to your taste?
**[19:14] Takuma**
Yeah!
**[19:15] Mina**
That is good to hear.
**[19:18] Mina**
As there are many more clothes.
**[19:20] Takuma**
Whoa!
**[19:22] Mina**
Could you tell me which
articles are your favorites?
**[19:30] Takuma**
Hello, Akari?
**[19:32] Akari**
*What?*
**[19:33] Akari**
Thanks for buying so much
for her. I'll pay you back.
**[19:36] Akari**
Nah, shopping with Mina-san
is all sorts of fun.
**[19:41] Akari**
The relationship you
two have is adorable.
**[19:44] Akari**
Sorry to poke my nose
into your personal life.
**[19:47] Takuma**
*I don't really mind.*
**[19:49] Takuma**
*Except I do.*
**[19:50] Takuma**
Keep on teaching her stuff.
**[19:53] Takuma**
When Mina-chan does things I don't
see coming, it makes me happy.
**[19:59] Takuma**
When someone learns all about the world,
and still decides they like me the best,
**[20:04] Takuma**
aren't they the one I marry?
**[20:07] Takuma**
And so, to that end...
**[20:14] Akari**
*Wh-What's wrong?!*
**[20:16] Mina**

**[20:18] Takuma**
W-Wait a minute!

Huh?! Y-You could handle that?

In terms of getting into a bath,

O-Okay then...
**[21:14] Takuma**
I mean... shall we?
**[21:15] Mina**
Yes.
**[21:18] Mina**
It was suggested on television
earlier that we scrub one another.
**[21:21] Takuma**
L-Let's just take things

Very well.

I apologize. It seems my thermal

Is your body okay?
**[21:56] Mina**
No problem.

Ouch, that hurts!
**[01:12] Mina**
I apologize.
**[01:14] Takuma**
Ow, ow...
**[01:18] Mina**
Are you all right?
**[01:22] Takuma**
I'm fine.
***SIGN*** #04 My Wife Changed into a Swimsuit
**[03:07] Takuma**
Keep it down.
**[03:11] Akari**
*Where do you go to deepen a romance?*
**[03:13] Akari**
*It's got to be the beach!*
**[03:19] Akari**
As they clamor around on the sand,
**[03:23] Akari**
they'll naturally grow closer!
**[03:27] Akari**
And I get to watch!
**[03:34] Akari**
Time to do this!
**[03:36] Takuma**
Keep it *down*.
**[03:38] Takuma**
Sorry she sprung this on us.
**[03:41] Mina**
My waterproofing functions
down to a depth of two meters.
**[03:45] Mina**
There will be no problem,
as long as I do not go too deep.
**[03:48] Takuma**
Wow.
**[03:50] Akari**
Now then, let's change into swimsuits!
**[03:54] Akari**
Mina-san, let's go!
**[03:56] Mina**
Very well.
**[03:58] Akari**
You wait here, Onii-chan.
**[04:00] Takuma**
Yeah, sure.
**[04:02] Akari**
*I'm gonna put Mina-san in a cute suit!*
***SIGN*** La la la
**[04:13] Takuma**
I wonder if Mina-chan's okay.
**[04:16] Takuma**
Knowing Akari, she already had
a swimsuit picked out for her.
**[04:28] Takuma**
Huh?
**[04:29] Takuma**
Something seems different...
**[04:33] Takuma**
but those are Mina-chan noises.
**[04:40] Takuma**
Mina-chan, you got changed quickly.
**[04:43] Super Mina**
I-I apologize, master!
**[04:46] Takuma**
*H-Huh? Isn't she a little tall?*
**[04:49] Super Mina**
I ended up getting lost!
**[04:59] Takuma**
Wait a minute. Are you...?
**[05:01] Super Mina**
H-Huh?
**[05:04] Super Mina**
*You're* not my master!
**[05:06] Takuma**
I'm sorry. I mistook you for my wife.
**[05:10] Super Mina**
B-But, you just said "Mina"!
**[05:13] Takuma**
Huh?
**[05:14] Super Mina**
I am also Mina!
**[05:18] Takuma**
Those shining pupils!
**[05:20] Takuma**
Are you a...?
**[05:22] Super Mina**
Yes!
**[05:23] Super Mina**
I do any and all chores flawlessly!
Or, I would *like* to...
**[05:27] Super Mina**
I am the all-purpose housework robot
MI07S, brand name: Super Mina!
**[05:32] Super Mina**
Nice to meet you!
**[05:34] Takuma**
Hello.
**[05:35] Super Mina**
Are you the master of a Mina Series?
**[05:39] Takuma**
Y-Yeah.
**[05:41] Takuma**
*Wow! Her face is so expressive.*
**[05:45] Takuma**
She's shorter than you, though.
**[05:48] Super Mina**
Which means she's a limited model!
**[05:51] Super Mina**
Is she the cleaning model?
Cooking? Babysitting?
**[05:54] Takuma**
Th-The cooking model.
**[05:57] Super Mina**
That makes her CL-chan!
**[05:59] Super Mina**
I've never met
another Mina Series before!
**[06:03] Takuma**
R-Really?
**[06:05] Super Mina**
Is she here?!
**[06:07] Takuma**
She's getting changed at the moment.
**[06:12] Super Mina**
Do you mind if I wait right here?
**[06:15] Takuma**
Th-That's fine, but are you sure?
Didn't you lose track of someone?
**[06:20] Super Mina**
Oh! That's right!
**[06:22] Super Mina**
I took my eyes off my master
briefly and he was gone.
**[06:26] Super Mina**
I was looking for him,
but then I came across a kitty.
**[06:30] Takuma**
A kitty?
**[06:32] Super Mina**
You should have seen it! It was so cute!
**[06:35] Super Mina**
I couldn't stop myself
from following it,
**[06:39] Super Mina**
and before I knew it, I was
in an unfamiliar place.
**[06:42] Takuma**
Is that so?
**[06:44] Super Mina**
This always happens to me.
**[06:46] Super Mina**
That's why I was
uneasy about going out.
**[06:50] Super Mina**
But my master insisted.
**[06:55] Takuma**
I get it now.
**[06:57] Takuma**
All right, then. Let's look
for your master together.
**[07:02] Takuma**
How about, once that's done,
we'll meet up with my Mina-chan?
**[07:08] Super Mina**
Sure!
**[07:09] Super Mina**
Let's do so!
**[07:11] Takuma**
No problem.
**[07:12] Takuma**
First, describe him for me.
**[07:16] Super Mina**
Let's see...
***SIGN*** Something came up.
Be back soon.
***SIGN*** Done yet?
**[07:21] Akari**
Huh?!
**[07:22] Akari**
What're you thinking, Onii-chan?!
**[07:25] Akari**
What could've come up that's
more important than Mina-san?!
**[07:27] Akari**
And I put makeup on her and everything.
**[07:31] Mina**
Akari-sama.
**[07:33] Akari**
What's up?
**[07:34] Mina**
That person has been looking
quite troubled for some time now.
**[07:41] Akari**
Wait a minute, Mina-san!
**[07:45] Rihito**
Mina!
**[07:46] Mina**
Yes?
**[07:47] Akari**
Mina-san, wait!
**[07:50] Mina**
Is something wrong?
**[07:52] Mina**
Can I be of assistance?
**[07:55] Rihito**
Huh?
**[07:57] Rihito**
Who are you?
**[08:01] Mina**
I am Mina.
**[08:03] Rihito**
No you're not!
**[08:04] Mina**
I am Mina.
**[08:06] Rihito**
My Mina isn't a blank-faced runt like you!
**[08:10] Rihito**
Go away!
**[08:11] Akari**
H-Hey, look, you!
**[08:16] Mina**
A tall Mina, rich in expression?
**[08:19] Mina**
Does this mean you are searching
for a top-model Super Mina?
**[08:25] Rihito**
Yeah.
**[08:27] Rihito**
I'm looking for her, but
she's nowhere to be found.
**[08:30] Mina**
That is concerning. I will
assist you, if you wish.
**[08:40] Mina**
The Mina Series have the ability to
communicate with one another wirelessly.
***SIGN*** Fireworks Prohibited Cookouts Prohibited
Keep the beach beautiful - To all swimmers
**[08:44] Akari**
Oh, wow!
**[08:46] Akari**
Then won't we find her right away?
**[08:48] Mina**
But my wireless output is weak, and I
cannot cover the entire swimming area.
**[08:54] Akari**
Oh.
**[08:55] Mina**
I therefore plan to scan
as I walk along the beach.
**[09:00] Akari**
Makes sense.
**[09:01] Mina**
Do you approve of this plan?
**[09:03] Rihito**
Sure. Let's get to it.
**[09:06] Akari**
Who put him in charge?!
**[09:10] Super Mina**
Look at this, Takuma-sama!
**[09:12] Super Mina**
As I suspected, you can see the
entire swimming area from here!
**[09:17] Takuma**
Yeah.
**[09:18] Takuma**
But it's too far away to see clearly.
**[09:21] Super Mina**
Rest assured!
**[09:23] Super Mina**
The image quality of my eyes
can even spot ants on the sand!
**[09:29] Super Mina**
See, I just did it!
**[09:30] Takuma**
Impressive.
**[09:31] Super Mina**
Oh!
**[09:32] Takuma**
You found him?
**[09:34] Super Mina**
It's so cute!
**[09:36] Takuma**
Look for your *master*.
**[09:39] Rihito**
Any response?
**[09:40] Mina**
None.
**[09:42] Akari**
It's not working.
**[09:45] Mina**
We have reached the end.
**[09:48] Rihito**
Were you really sending out a signal?
**[09:51] Mina**
I am sure of it.
**[09:53] Mina**
It is conceivable she was somewhere
my signal did not reach,
**[09:55] Mina**
or her feature is turned off.
**[09:59] Rihito**
Great...
**[10:00] Akari**
When did you get separated?
**[10:02] Rihito**
As soon as we got to the beach.
**[10:04] Akari**
Super Mina-san is surprisingly unreliable.
**[10:08] Rihito**
That's not true!
**[10:10] Akari**
Huh?
**[10:11] Rihito**
She has so many incredible features!
She just hasn't mastered them yet!
**[10:15] Rihito**
She's a robot who
can get the job done!
**[10:17] Akari**
Oh, sorry.
**[10:21] Rihito**
My Mina is amazing.
**[10:24] Rihito**
And yet, Mom insists on hiring
people to help with chores.
**[10:29] Rihito**
I came to the beach to show
her Mina can do anything.
**[10:35] Rihito**
And then, it only took
seconds for her to get lost.
**[10:43] Rihito**
Maybe... she's not amazing after all.
**[10:54] Mina**
She is amazing.
**[10:57] Mina**
Super Mina is amazing.
**[11:00] Rihito**
Really?
**[11:01] Mina**
It is true.
**[11:03] Mina**
Super Mina is multifunctional,
so she has many options,
**[11:07] Mina**
and she must constantly deal
with the difficulty of selecting
**[11:10] Mina**
which of them is optimal.
**[11:12] Mina**
Over the course of gathering experience,
she assigns priorities to those options.
**[11:16] Rihito**
Experience?
**[11:18] Mina**
If she has you to look after her, she could
become the most amazing robot in the world.
**[11:31] Rihito**
I'm going to the lost child info center.
**[11:34] Akari**
Huh?
**[11:34] Rihito**
I'll have them look for Mina.
**[11:36] Rihito**
Maybe if they make an
announcement, she'll hear it.
**[11:42] Super Mina**
A kitty!
**[11:43] Super Mina**
There's a kitty! Meow!
**[11:46] Super Mina**
Meow, kitty!
**[11:48] Super Mina**
Come here, come here!
**[11:50] Takuma**
* Once she zooms in,*
* she hyper-focuses.*
**[11:53] Super Mina**
Meow, meow meow!
**[11:55] Takuma**
Uh, would you mind if we head back?
**[12:01] Super Mina**
I-I'm sorry! Takuma-sama, you were
going to meet up with your Mina-san!
**[12:05] Super Mina**
Y-Your wife...
**[12:08] Super Mina**
Wife...
**[12:09] Super Mina**
Wife?
**[12:12] Super Mina**
You're married to a Mina Series?!
**[12:16] Super Mina**
You said "wife" earlier, didn't you?!
**[12:18] Takuma**
*Slow on the uptake.*
**[12:19] Super Mina**
Wow! Wow! Wow!
**[12:22] Super Mina**
How did you two come to be married?!
**[12:25] Super Mina**
Oh, I guess it's rude to simply ask that.
**[12:28] Super Mina**
I'm sorry!
**[12:29] Takuma**
S'okay.
**[12:31] Super Mina**
I heard robot marriage
was popular overseas,
**[12:34] Super Mina**
but I guess it happens
here at home, too.
**[12:37] Takuma**
*This conversation's getting weird.*
**[12:38] Super Mina**
It isn't legally recognized, though,
so that must be tough!
**[12:42] Super Mina**
If there's anything I can
do, anything at all—
**[12:44] Takuma**
Listen, about that cat earlier.
**[12:46] Takuma**
What kind of kitty was it?
**[12:48] Super Mina**
Oh!
**[12:49] Super Mina**
Um, let's see.
**[12:50] Super Mina**
It was a calico,
so probably a girl, I think.
**[12:54] Takuma**
How can you tell what gender it was?

It is a cat.

Do you like cats?
**[13:30] Rihito**
Yeah. I also do feline rescue work.

Wait!
**[14:16] Takuma**
*Huh? Where is she?*
**[14:25] Takuma**
*Sh-She's fast!*
**[14:29] Akari**
Hello, Onii-chan?
**[14:31] Akari**
Hey! Hello?
**[14:31] Mina**
I have a wireless connection.
**[14:34] Akari**
Hey!
**[14:35] Mina**
There should be a single Mina Series nearby.
**[14:37] Akari**
Hello!
**[14:38] Rihito**
Mina! Where is she?!
**[14:41] Mina**
I do not know,
as there is no response.
**[14:44] Mina**
There is much noise.
**[14:47] Mina**
It must mean...
**[14:52] Mina**
Incoming.
**[14:54] Rihito**
What is?
**[14:57] Akari**
What the heck is that?
**[15:11] Rihito**
Mina?
**[15:13] Super Mina**
M-M-M-Master!
**[15:18] Rihito**
I-I've told you to stop calling me that!
**[15:22] Super Mina**
Young master!
**[15:25] Rihito**
Don't go wandering off like that, dummy.
**[15:27] Super Mina**
I'm sorry!
**[15:31] Rihito**
Back off already!
**[15:32] Akari**
This has potential.
**[15:35] Takuma**
Akari.
**[15:37] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[15:39] Akari**
Have you been swimming?
**[15:40] Takuma**
I have.
**[15:41] Akari**
Oh, Onii-chan.
**[15:43] Akari**
I mentioned him over the phone.
**[15:45] Akari**
This is Rihito-kun,
Super Mina-chan's master.
**[15:48] Takuma**
Hello.
**[15:50] Rihito**
N-Nice to meet you.
**[15:55] Takuma**
By the way, why are they
suddenly staring at each other?
**[15:58] Akari**
I was told it's wireless communication.
**[16:01] Takuma**
Couldn't they just talk like normal?
**[16:03] Rihito**
She told me they can exchange detailed
information about 400 times faster this way.
**[16:08] Takuma**
Four hundred?!
**[16:10] Rihito**
Isn't the Mina Series amazing?!
**[16:12] Rihito**
Way more amazing than humans!
**[16:16] Takuma**
Yeah, they sure are.
**[16:22] Takuma**
They're discussing a *lot*.
**[16:25] Takuma**
How much time has passed?
**[16:26] Akari**
Five minutes, maybe?
**[16:29] Takuma**
Isn't that a huge conversation?
It's 400 times faster, right?
**[16:33] Rihito**
I wonder what they're discussing.
**[16:35] Takuma**
Detailed information exchange...
**[16:42] Takuma**
Mina-chan, Mina-chan.
**[16:45] Takuma**
Isn't that enough, now?
**[16:46] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[16:48] Super Mina**
I-I'm sorry!
**[16:50] Super Mina**
I was so happy to meet another
Mina Series for the first time,
**[16:54] Super Mina**
I couldn't stop communicating!
**[16:56] Mina**
It was a very interesting
exchange of information.
**[17:00] Takuma**
Well, let's take a
short rest over there.
**[17:03] Super Mina**
Good idea!
**[17:04] Super Mina**
But please hold on a minute.
**[17:06] Takuma**
Huh?
**[17:07] Super Mina**
Rihito-sama.
**[17:10] Super Mina**
You spoke rudely to
Takuma-sama's Mina-san!
**[17:14] Rihito**
I-I did...
**[17:16] Super Mina**
Do you regret doing so?
**[17:19] Rihito**
I do...
**[17:20] Super Mina**
Then you should apologize.
**[17:25] Rihito**
Mina-san, I'm sorry for being rude to you!
**[17:29] Mina**
No problem at all.
**[17:32] Mina**
When it comes to domestic robots, the Mina
Series is made with durability in mind.
**[17:37] Mina**
It will take more than something
done by you to upset me.
**[17:44] Mina**
Rihito-sama, it is good that you
managed to find Super Mina-san.
**[17:48] Rihito**
Thank you.
**[17:50] Takuma**
Good, indeed.
**[17:51] Takuma**
I know, let's take a photo.
**[17:55] Takuma**
I've got to go get my smartphone...
**[18:21] Akari**
This was loads of fun!
**[18:26] Super Mina**
I was so glad to spend
this time with everyone.
**[18:30] Akari**
Will you make it home okay?
**[18:31] Super Mina**
I was scared, so I called a cab.
**[18:35] Akari**
I never dreamed I'd make
another Mina-san friend.
**[18:40] Super Mina**
Friend?
**[18:42] Akari**
I know! Let's take a photo
to mark the occasion!
**[18:44] Akari**
Onii-chan! Come on, get up!
**[18:47] Akari**
Use my camera!
**[18:50] Akari**
Can I get in the middle?
**[18:51] Akari**
I want a pic with a Mina-san

Right, right.

**[20:14] Takuma**
so no more of these secret photos, yeah?
**[20:17] Akari**
Yeah.
**[20:23] Takuma**
I'm worn out, but that was fun.
**[20:29] Mina**
Are you all right?
**[20:31] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[20:32] Takuma**
Hold that pose for a bit.
**[20:35] Takuma**
Akari put makeup on you, but I wasn't able
to get a good look at you at the beach.
**[20:40] Mina**
But nearly all of it has come off.
**[20:43] Takuma**
Nah. It's more charming
when there's this amount.
**[20:47] Mina**
Do you prefer me with makeup,
Takuma-sama?
**[20:50] Takuma**
I'm not sure.
**[20:51] Takuma**
The change of pace is nice, though.
**[20:55] Mina**
How nice, exactly?
Which way do you prefer?
**[20:59] Takuma**
Mina-chan, hey...

37.5˚C. You seem to
have a slight fever.
**[00:13] Mina**
Before it worsens, I advise
getting lots of rest.
**[00:17] Mina**
Be sure to eat plenty, too.
**[00:21] Takuma**
I will.
**[00:29] Takuma**
What's up?
**[00:30] Mina**
For information my eye cameras
cannot fully confirm,
**[00:33] Mina**
I must use the high-end sensors in
my hands for medical observation.
**[00:36] Mina**
It is squishy here.
**[00:40] Takuma**
You made me some rice porridge.
**[00:43] Takuma**
Thank you.
**[00:46] Takuma**
I'll have so—
**[00:49] Takuma**
M-Mina-chan?
**[00:55] Takuma**
*I feel crappy.*
**[00:59] Mina**
I found another spot.
**[01:01] Mina**
It is squishy here, too.
**[01:03] Takuma**
Mina-chan...
**[01:09] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[01:11] Mina**
Yes?
**[01:13] Takuma**
Could you stop
touching my butt?
**[01:17] Mina**
Very well.

Good morning.

M-Morning.

I will prepare breakfast.

I will deal with the dishes.

* I may have done some small things,*

**[04:06] Takuma**
Ow! Ow!
**[04:08] Mina**
Are you all right?
**[04:09] Mina**
Is there anything I can do?
**[04:12] Takuma**
Oww...
**[04:13] Takuma**
Hmm, well...
**[04:15] Takuma**
If you give me a quick kiss on the
cheek, maybe I'll feel better soon.
**[04:20] Takuma**
Just kidding.
**[04:23] Mina**
Very well.
**[04:27] Takuma**
You'll really... do it?
**[04:43] Mina**
Well, Takuma-sama?
Do you feel better?
**[04:47] Takuma**
Y-Yeah.
**[04:51] Takuma**
Was it a *kiss*?! Did you
give me a morning kiss?!
**[04:55] Mina**
I did.
**[04:56] Mina**
I apologize for kissing you
without warning.
**[05:00] Mina**
I heard a kiss from a wife in the
morning does wonders for one's energy.
**[05:04] Takuma**
Okay, that makes sense.
**[05:07] Takuma**
But maybe it was
a little too powerful?
**[05:10] Takuma**
I'd like you to be gentle.
**[05:13] Takuma**
A light smooch, like this.
**[05:16] Mina**
Will pressure that low
have any effect?
**[05:19] Takuma**
Pressure actually has
nothing to do with it.
**[05:23] Mina**
Be that as it may, it will not be a kiss
if a certain minimum force is not applied.
**[05:29] Mina**
What level of pressure is appropriate?
**[05:32] Mina**
"Light smooch" is difficult to understand.
**[05:35] Takuma**
Hmm, good point.
**[05:38] Takuma**
Let's see, umm...
**[05:40] Mina**
Is this complicated? By how
many newtons should we collide?
**[05:44] Takuma**
I was wondering...
**[05:48] Takuma**
how about I demonstrate?
**[05:52] Mina**
That is a very good suggestion.
**[05:54] Mina**
Go ahead.
**[05:56] Mina**
Do so at once.
**[05:58] Takuma**
B-But, well, should our
first kiss really be like this?
**[06:03] Mina**
Like what?
**[06:05] Takuma**
Uh, well...
**[06:08] Mina**
You do not wish to?
**[06:10] Takuma**
I totally want to, just...
**[06:11] Mina**
If there is a reason you
cannot, please tell me.
**[06:15] Takuma**
A reason?
**[06:16] Takuma**
No, not really.
**[06:18] Mina**
If there is none,
then please hurry up.
**[06:21] Takuma**
R-Right...
**[06:23] Takuma**
Okay, here goes.
**[06:35] Mina**
Is the forehead not
the energizing area?
**[06:38] Takuma**
Oh!
**[06:39] Takuma**
Sorry. I went and did it
where *I* wanted to.
**[06:42] Takuma**
B-But a kiss anywhere
would cheer me up.
**[06:46] Takuma**
By giving a smooch
with your lips, umm...
**[06:51] Takuma**
It's like, you cheer up
because you feel loved.
**[06:56] Mina**
Is it that making contact with delicate
**[06:59] Mina**
mucous membranes is a way
of communicating intimacy?
**[07:05] Takuma**
W-Well, something like that.
**[07:07] Takuma**
So! How was it for you?
**[07:10] Takuma**
How did it feel to be kissed?
**[07:12] Takuma**
It wasn't unpleasant?
**[07:14] Mina**
It is not unpleasant, but I do not
really understand how it energizes.
**[07:18] Mina**
Other than my eyelids, my
face is made of resin plates.
**[07:22] Mina**
There are no sensors whatsoever
in my forehead, lips, and such.
**[07:26] Mina**
Even if you kiss me, all I feel is
the pressure on my joint mechanisms.
**[07:33] Mina**
All I did was bump a hard
resin plate against you.
**[07:38] Mina**
It was not a kiss.
**[07:41] Mina**
I apologize for not having mucous membranes.
**[07:45] Takuma**
It's not something to apologize for.
**[07:47] Mina**
Was it painful, and nothing more?
**[07:50] Takuma**
No. I mean, um...
**[07:53] Takuma**
It *did* hurt, but, well...
**[07:56] Mina**
I am sorry.
**[08:04] Takuma**
I was so happy when I
realized you'd kissed me.
**[08:08] Mina**
Why?
**[08:10] Takuma**
Because you're the
only one I want to kiss.
**[08:14] Takuma**
Even if you're hard,
and you don't feel anything,
**[08:18] Takuma**
to me, you're the best in
the world just the way you are.
**[08:26] Mina**
All right. Understood.
**[08:30] Mina**
If you wish to kiss again,
please do so anytime.
**[08:34] Takuma**
Sure.
**[08:35] Mina**
Would it be best if I still
gave good-morning kisses?
**[08:38] Takuma**
If possible.
**[08:40] Mina**
Very well.
**[08:42] Takuma**
Oh. You have high-performance
sensors here, don't you?
**[08:49] Mina**
Oh.

What was that "oh"?
**[08:57] Mina**
To what do you refer?
**[08:59] Takuma**
When I kissed your hand,
you went, "Oh."
**[09:02] Takuma**
Huh?
**[09:03] Mina**
We have company.
**[09:05] Super Mina**
Good morning!
**[09:07] Super Mina**
Super Mina, here on behalf
of Saionji Rihito!
**[09:16] Super Mina**
Thank you for what you
did at the beach.
**[09:19] Takuma**
Huh? Super Mina-chan?
**[09:21] Super Mina**
Good morning, Takuma-sama.
**[09:24] Takuma**
Morning.
**[09:25] Takuma**
Huh?
**[09:26] Takuma**
For that matter, how do
you know our address?
**[09:30] Super Mina**
I'm glad you asked!
**[09:33] Super Mina**
All the Mina Series has to do is exchange
IDs, and we can communicate over the net!
**[09:40] Super Mina**
Ever since we met at the beach,
**[09:42] Super Mina**
we've been spending our downtime
each day conversing at a speed
**[09:46] Super Mina**
hundreds of times the normal rate!
**[09:50] Takuma**
Are you saying you've talked
to Mina-chan more than I have?
**[09:53] Takuma**
You could have told me
she was coming over.
**[09:56] Mina**
Conversation between
girls is secret. Shh.
**[09:59] Takuma**
Oh well, what can you do?
**[10:02] Takuma**
You didn't get lost on the way here?
**[10:04] Super Mina**
About that.
**[10:05] Super Mina**
My privacy protection function prevents
me from confirming your address directly,
**[10:10] Super Mina**
so finding the place was a bit tough.

And I could submerge myself 100m underwater.

can't accept it emotionally.
**[12:53] Super Mina**
E-Excuse me!
**[12:54] Super Mina**

**[12:57] Super Mina**
Rihito-sama—my master.

He doesn't have *any* friends!
**[13:06] Takuma**
Is that so?
**[13:08] Super Mina**
Yes!
**[13:09] Super Mina**
It's like he has no interest in
anything but robots and cats!
**[13:12] Super Mina**
He really adores cats, so he takes in
strays and tries to find them new homes.
**[13:19] Super Mina**
It is so admirable, how he cares
for them every day in a building
***SIGN*** Open
slowly
**[13:23] Super Mina**
he constructed using his
own pocket money.
**[13:25] Super Mina**
Oh, but he doesn't play at
all with children his own age.
**[13:30] Super Mina**
And the household employees
ignore him completely!
**[13:33] Super Mina**
Isn't that awful?
**[13:35] Super Mina**
He does love his parents, but they're so
busy with work that they don't come home much.
**[13:42] Super Mina**
And so, the only people he talks
to are me and the cats.
**[13:47] Super Mina**
Oh, but I'm not a person.
**[13:50] Super Mina**
Oh, and neither are the cats.
**[13:52] Super Mina**
But they're so in tune
with how you feel!
**[13:56] Takuma**
So... what's the reason?
**[13:59] Super Mina**
Oh!
**[14:00] Super Mina**
Um...
**[14:03] Super Mina**
I was so happy when he showed
his mother a video of all of us
**[14:08] Super Mina**
having fun at the swimming area!
**[14:10] Takuma**
This is thanks for that?
**[14:12] Super Mina**
Yes.
**[14:13] Takuma**
But that doesn't change that it's expensive.
**[14:18] Super Mina**
No problem, on that count.
**[14:21] Super Mina**
Rihito-sama's family is incredibly rich!
**[14:26] Super Mina**
From their perspective, this is like
giving someone some candy as a gift.
***SIGN*** Candy
**[14:31] Super Mina**
Or something like that.
**[14:32] Takuma**
Candy?
**[14:33] Super Mina**
Therefore, it is okay for you to accept.
**[14:37] Takuma**
No, it's not okay.
**[14:41] Takuma**
Even if you and yours are rich, I
can't bring myself to accept something
**[14:45] Takuma**
it would take me years of hard
work to just barely afford.
**[14:50] Super Mina**
I see.
**[14:53] Takuma**
I'm sorry, Mina-chan, but
can I get you to understand?
**[15:00] Mina**
I understand.
**[15:08] Takuma**
What're you doing, Mina-chan?
**[15:09] Mina**
Online information states that while married,
**[15:13] Mina**
a couple owns equal shares
of acquired assets.
**[15:18] Takuma**
Huh?
**[15:19] Mina**
I therefore give the first
half to you, as your share.
**[15:23] Takuma**
Oh, right.
**[15:26] Takuma**
The first half...
**[15:28] Mina**
The other half is my share.
**[15:30] Takuma**
W-Well yeah, but...
**[15:33] Mina**
Am I without rights,
as I am not a real wife?
**[15:40] Takuma**
All right.
**[15:42] Takuma**
You can pick whichever you like.
**[15:45] Super Mina**
Hooray!
**[15:48] Super Mina**
Good for you, Mina-san!
**[15:50] Mina**
Yes.
**[15:53] Super Mina**
Oops. I stepped on it.
**[15:55] Takuma**
What's that?
**[15:57] Super Mina**
This is actually a gift, too.
**[16:01] Mina**
What does it contain?
**[16:04] Super Mina**
Well, about that.
**[16:06] Super Mina**
I heard Takuma-sama's birthday
surprise didn't go so well,
**[16:12] Super Mina**
and I had an idea of my own.
**[16:15] Super Mina**
Surprises are nice,
**[16:16] Super Mina**
but I wondered how a merry celebration
with decorations like this would be!
**[16:20] Takuma**
By "surprise," you mean...
**[16:25] (Flashback) Takuma**
I'm home.
**[16:27] (Flashback) Takuma**
Mina-chan?
**[16:28] (Flashback) Takuma**
Where are you?
**[16:47] (Flashback) Mina**
Are you surprised?
**[16:50] (Flashback) Mina**
It was written online that it is good to
surprise a significant other on their birthday.
**[16:57] (Flashback) Takuma**
"Surprise"?
**[16:59] Takuma**
*I definitely was surprised...*
**[17:04] Mina**
What are these?
**[17:06] Super Mina**
Party poppers.
**[17:07] Super Mina**
Pull the string on the bottom, and...
**[17:24] Super Mina**
Mina-san!
**[17:25] Takuma**
Mina! Mina-chan!
**[17:27] Super Mina**
I-I'm sorry.
**[17:29] Takuma**
What do we do? She's not responding!
**[17:32] Super Mina**
The stress of the surprise rendered
her temporarily non-functional.
**[17:37] Super Mina**
But don't worry. She'll
recover in about sixty seconds.
**[17:42] Super Mina**
There is no internal
damage whatsoever.
**[17:46] Takuma**
That's a relief!
**[17:47] Super Mina**
I really am sorry.
**[17:49] Takuma**
No, if she's okay, it's fine.
**[18:00] Super Mina**
Thank you very much!
**[18:09] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[18:11] Takuma**
I'd like us both to take our time
deciding what to order. Is that okay?
**[18:16] Mina**
I apologize.
**[18:19] Mina**
You said to pick whichever I like,
so I already placed an order online.
**[18:24] Takuma**
That was quick!
**[18:27] Super Mina**
Huh?
**[18:30] Super Mina**
Rihito-sama!
**[18:33] Super Mina**
Did you come out to meet me?
**[18:36] Super Mina**
Didn't I tell you it's okay, because
I'm equipped with a navigation system?
**[18:41] Rihito**
C-Can it!
**[18:43] Rihito**
I just wanted to take a walk.
**[18:46] Rihito**
I'm allowed to go where I want.
**[18:58] Takuma**
By the way, what did you
pick from the catalog?
**[19:02] Takuma**
The Deluxe Option Set?
**[19:05] Mina**
I made a mistake with your birthday,
**[19:07] Mina**
so I think I will give
surprises another try.
**[19:11] Mina**
May I keep what I ordered a secret?
**[19:16] Takuma**
All right.
**[19:18] Mina**
May I have a potato?
**[19:20] Takuma**
Sure, sure.
**[19:24] Super Mina**
CL-chan and Takuma-sama
really are close.
**[19:28] Super Mina**
Like a real husband and wife.
**[19:31] Super Mina**
Such things can happen even
between a robot and a human.
**[19:34] Rihito**
Are you jealous?
**[19:36] Super Mina**
I guess so.
**[19:38] Super Mina**
I think it would be nice
to become family.
**[19:42] Super Mina**
Oh.
**[19:49] Rihito**
Listen! It doesn't have to
involve marriage!
**[19:52] Rihito**
Mina, you m-mean... as
much to me as f-f-f-f...
**[20:00] Rihito**
Forget it, let's go!
**[20:03] Super Mina**
O-Okay!
**[20:14] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[20:16] Mina**
I received an email
from my manufacturer.
**[20:19] Mina**
They say they will come
collect me next week.
**[20:22] Takuma**
Okay, got it.
**[20:25] Mina**
I will be returned here once upgrades
and maintenance are complete.
**[20:29] Mina**
It will take roughly two weeks.
**[20:32] Takuma**
All right.
**[20:34] Mina**
Are you not pleased with dinner?
**[20:38] Takuma**
No, it's good! It's good!
**[20:43] Takuma**
*I can't even taste it.*
**[20:51] Takuma**
*I can't sleep at all.*
**[20:53] Mina**
Oh, stop, you!
**[20:53] Takuma**
* If I do fall asleep, all I dream about*
* is Mina's smiling, squishy face.*
**[21:00] Takuma**
*When I wake up, I'm just crying.*
**[21:02] Mina**
Are you all right?
**[21:06] Takuma**
I had a scary dream, that's all.
**[21:10] Takuma**
* Do I want Mina-chan to be*
* soft and squishy, or don't I?*
**[21:15] Takuma**
*Which is it?*
**[21:17] Takuma**
*No! My feelings don't make any difference!*
**[21:20] Takuma**
*It's about whether* she *wants squishy!*
**[21:24] Takuma**
* If she does, I should*
* give her the chance!*
**[21:29] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[21:31] Mina**
Is there something amiss with my face?
**[21:32] Takuma**
Oh, no.
**[21:35] Takuma**
Sorry, I just...
**[21:37] Mina**
It is not a problem.
**[21:56] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[21:58] Takuma**
That hurts a little.
**[22:01] Mina**
I apologize.
**[23:35] Mina**
Next time.

My wife left me (for two weeks).

There.

That's cool.
**[00:21] Mina**
I am ready anytime.
**[00:23] Takuma**
Okay. Recording, start.
**[00:30] Takuma**
However many times I see it, it's

**[00:34] Mina**
What is "cool"?
**[00:36] Takuma**
Um, it's like when
something's captivating.
**[00:40] Mina**
Captivating... You do
like steam, Takuma-sama.
**[00:44] Takuma**
M-Maybe I do.

**[02:28] Takuma**
Thanks.
**[02:29] Mina**
Why did you suddenly
want to take pictures?
**[02:32] Takuma**
I wanted to make a record of you
this way, before you become fancy.
**[02:37] Mina**
I see.
**[02:38] Mina**
What is the pixel count
of that smartphone?
**[02:41] Takuma**
I think the rear camera is 12 million,
and the front camera is 7 million.
**[02:47] Mina**
My eye cameras
number 13.17 million pixels.
**[02:52] Mina**
The left and right are
each 13.17 million.
**[02:55] Takuma**
You got me beat.
**[02:57] Mina**
Does it have a zoom feature?
**[02:59] Takuma**
I'm pretty sure there's
a kind of digital zoom.
**[03:02] Mina**
My eye cameras have 5x optical zoom.
**[03:05] Takuma**
That's amazing.
**[03:07] Mina**
If I use both eyes, I can
capture stereoscopic imagery.
**[03:11] Mina**
You could say that even as a camera,
**[03:13] Mina**
my abilities are sure to
surpass your smartphone's.
**[03:16] Takuma**
I'll say.
**[03:17] Mina**
I recommend using me for photography
instead of a smartphone.
**[03:21] Takuma**
But I want to take pictures
of *you*, Mina-chan.
**[03:24] Mina**
Yes.
**[03:25] Takuma**
You can't take pictures
of yourself, can you?
**[03:33] Takuma**
Mina-chan?
**[03:38] Takuma**
Are you doing a
Web search or something?
**[03:51] Takuma**
Say what?
**[03:53] Mina**
Takuma-sama, please
do a V sign. Peace.
**[03:56] Takuma**
Mina-chan, you point your
palm outward for a V sign.
**[04:01] Mina**
Very well.
**[04:07] Takuma/Mina**
Peace.
**[04:10] Mina**
I took a picture.
**[04:11] Mina**
Now I will horizontally flip this photo data,
and output it using my online printing feature.
**[04:17] Takuma**
The mirror's a good idea.
Did you find that online?
**[04:21] Mina**
I was borrowing
Super Mina-san's brain.
**[04:24] Takuma**
Ah, you were
asking her for advice.
**[04:27] Mina**
No.
**[04:28] Mina**
I directly connected my brain with Super
Mina-san's, and had her do the thinking.
**[04:34] Takuma**
Huh? You two can do that?
**[04:36] Mina**
It is designed to be a feature where,
when one owns multiple Mina Series units,
**[04:42] Mina**
even a low-performance Mina will
be capable of advanced thought
**[04:47] Mina**
by using multiple brains
as one over a network.
***SIGN*** Very smart Mina
**[04:51] Takuma**
But it's a shame to have
someone else do all the work.
**[04:55] Mina**
That is not what happens.
**[04:57] Takuma**
It's not?
**[04:59] Mina**
Super Mina-san specializes in
diversified, complex thought,
**[05:03] Mina**
but the trade-off is that she is poor at
focusing her thoughts on any single thing.
**[05:07] Takuma**
Now that you mention it...
**[05:08] Mina**
Normally she would resolve this
issue after amassing experience,
**[05:13] Mina**
but by demonstrating my own
thought process within her,
**[05:17] Mina**
I can provide Super Mina-san a reference for
narrowing down her information framework.
**[05:22] Super Mina**
Now I get it!
**[05:23] Takuma**
There are benefits for both of you.
**[05:25] Mina**
Indeed.
**[05:27] Mina**
Super Mina-san and I
are friends and equals.
**[05:37] Rihito**
What's wrong, Mina?
**[05:40] Rihito**
Is there some problem?
**[05:42] Super Mina**
I-I am all right, master.
**[05:47] Super Mina**
* Mina-san, the*
* connection is still live.*
**[05:50] Mina**
*Pardon me.*
**[05:54] Super Mina**
* Mina-san,*
* say that again someday.*
**[05:57] Super Mina**
*That we're friends.*

**[07:09] Senju**
It is highly likely someone other

**[07:13] Senju**
Because Kosugi Takuma-sama will
be filling out the consent form.
**[07:17] Senju**
This complicates things.

I'll say.
**[07:20] Senju**

**[07:53] Iida**
We will offer all the support we

**[07:57] Takuma**

**[08:00] Iida**

Uh, well...
**[08:15] Iida**
Yes?
**[08:16] Takuma**
My Mina-ch—
**[08:18] Takuma**
Oh, I mean,
my r-robot, well...
**[08:21] Takuma**
On my omelet rice, it drew
a heart using ketchup,
***SIGN*** LOVE Takuma
**[08:26] Takuma**
and wrote "LOVE Takuma."
**[08:29] Takuma**
Does that sort of feature exist?
**[08:32] Iida**
Your name was written on
it as well, Kosugi-sama?
**[08:35] Takuma**
Yes.
**[08:36] Senju**
And you did not order
it written as such?
**[08:39] Takuma**
I don't do that!
**[08:41] Senju**
Unless there's a specific request,
**[08:43] Senju**
the CL Type should follow
the recipe to the letter.
**[08:46] Senju**
There is a possibility it saw omelet
rice with a heart drawn on it online,
**[08:51] Senju**
but the idea of it incorporating
its owner's name is odd.
**[08:55] Senju**
It is secondhand, so there might
be an issue with its programming.
**[09:01] Senju**
Would you mind if we performed
an inspection first?
**[09:04] Takuma**
Oh, go ahead.
**[09:17] Takuma**
Huh? Huh?!
**[09:26] Senju**
Pardon me.
**[09:28] Senju**
Mina CL, Identification Number 02251.
**[09:32] Senju**
Open your head cover.
**[09:39] Senju**
Are your audio sensors broken?
**[09:42] Mina**
They are not broken.
**[09:43] Senju**
Open your head, and I will
perform an inspection.
**[09:51] Iida**
I-Is it okay if we
continue our discussion?
**[09:55] Takuma**
Oh, sure.
**[09:56] Iida**
The Mina Series has the ability to learn,
**[09:59] Iida**
so it is conceivable for one to
write such a thing on omelet rice.
**[10:03] Iida**
But when it comes to the
limited cooking model...
**[10:06] Senju**
02251, open your head cover.
**[10:10] Iida**
it's not a type that's good at
inference or applied knowledge.
**[10:14] Senju**
Open your head.
**[10:16] Iida**
It's hard to imagine this happening.
**[10:18] Takuma**
I see.
**[10:20] Iida**
Perhaps it retains some limited
memory of its former owner.

**[10:33] Iida**
That's fine if that's what it is,
but the scenario that concerns me
**[10:36] Iida**
is if the programming is buggy, or
there's a malfunction due to modding.
**[10:40] Takuma**
I see.
**[10:42] Senju**
Open your head.
**[10:44] Iida**
There is the possibility
of it harming a human.
**[10:52] Senju**
Beginning recording. Commencing inspection
of Identification Number 02251.
**[10:58] Takuma**
* Her former owner, huh?*
* This gets complicated.*
**[11:02] Iida**
If the inspection reveals any danger,
it might call for a memory reset.
**[11:08] Iida**
Would that be okay?
**[11:10] Takuma**
Yes.
**[11:11] Takuma**
Huh? Reset?
**[11:13] Takuma**
You mean all the memories
would be *lost*?
**[11:16] Iida**
I do.
**[11:17] Senju**
Parts are all standard issue.
**[11:19] Senju**
No abnormal heat generation.
**[11:21] Senju**
No abnormalities detected visually.
**[11:23] Iida**
The relearning process would be difficult,
but for safety's sake, a reset-
**[11:27] Takuma**
B-But then she'd become
someone else, not herself...
**[11:34] Iida**
That is true. She would...
**[11:37] Iida**
"She"? Huh?
**[11:55] Takuma**
Have her stop.
**[11:57] Iida**
Huh?
**[11:59] Takuma**
Please have her stop immediately!

Hurry, make her stop!

Y-Yes, sir!

Hurry!
**[12:08] Senju**
Sir.
**[12:12] Takuma**
Owww!
**[12:14] Iida**
S-Senju-chan!
**[12:17] Senju**
Coercive behavior is
prohibited by law.
**[12:21] Iida**
Senju-chan...!
**[12:32] Iida**
I *truly* must apologize!
**[12:35] Iida**
I failed to realize she
was family to you!
**[12:39] Takuma**
No, I was the one
who raised my voice.
**[12:42] Iida**
You apologize too, Senju-chan!
**[12:44] Senju**
My duty is to protect my
partner from being attacked.
**[12:49] Senju**
I am not allowed to disregard it.
**[12:51] Iida**
Senju-chan!
**[12:52] Senju**
Iida. Since the company was founded,
I have been linked to a supercomputer,
**[12:57] Senju**
using it as part of my brain.
**[13:00] Senju**
My age as an individual unit is three months,
but in some respects, I am your senior.
**[13:04] Senju**
Please stop attaching
"chan" to my name.
**[13:07] Iida**
Enough.
**[13:08] Iida**
I'll handle the rest on my own.
**[13:11] Iida**
This is an order.
**[13:12] Iida**
Enter sleep mode.
**[13:14] Senju**
Entering sleep mode. 3, 2, 1.
**[13:22] Takuma**
Is she part of the Mina Series, too?
**[13:24] Iida**
Yes.
**[13:26] Iida**
She's helpful in an
employee-support capacity,
**[13:29] Iida**
but newborn units sort of have the
intellect of both an adult and a toddler,
**[13:35] Iida**
thus making them a bit unstable.
**[13:37] Iida**
In cases like today, she's supposed
to issue a warning before acting.
**[13:42] Iida**
It seems some units
have lots of quirks,
**[13:46] Iida**
and she gets very aggressive if even
the smallest thing happens to me.
**[13:50] Takuma**
That means you're very
important to her.
**[13:55] Iida**
Huh?
**[13:57] Iida**
Who can say!
**[14:01] Iida**
So, let's continue
with the procedure.
**[14:03] Iida**
When our company performs maintenance
on a robot, we inspect its programming,
**[14:07] Iida**
making any necessary
modifications or deletions.
***SIGN*** Regarding support for a family member
**[14:11] Takuma**
Right.
**[14:12] Iida**
But in cases where the robot's considered
family, it's a different story.
**[14:16] Takuma**
Different?
**[14:18] Iida**
Because then, she's part of the customer's
valued family, not a company product.
**[14:24] Takuma**
What's this?
**[14:25] Iida**
A process is followed that
differs from the usual sort.
**[14:29] Iida**
In order to protect privacy,
**[14:31] Iida**
we hardly do any checks on the
personality program or memory storage.
**[14:35] Takuma**
Oh, okay.
**[14:36] Iida**
We only check for modifications
**[14:38] Iida**
to the most important part of the
programming that relates to safety.
**[14:43] Iida**
If we come across any problems,
we can't perform the upgrade.
**[14:47] Iida**
The robot would then be
returned directly to you.
**[14:49] Takuma**
That makes sense.
I understand.
**[14:52] Iida**
This is the partner registration form.
**[14:55] Iida**
We will send you the data later on.
***SIGN*** Partner Registration Form
**[14:57] Takuma**
Partner registration form?
**[14:59] Iida**
It re-registers our company's robot as a
valued member of the customer's family.
**[15:04] Takuma**
Oh, huh.
**[15:05] Iida**
After you register, we will perform monthly
inspections and memory backups free of charge.
**[15:12] Takuma**
I can have those sorts of things done?
**[15:14] Iida**
Of course.
**[15:16] Iida**
Unlike with people, we're the only ones who
can care for this valued family member!
**[15:21] (Flashback) Iida**
Huh? Even free inspections?
**[15:24] (Flashback) Iida**
Isn't that an excessive guarantee,
just for them becoming partners?
**[15:28] (Flashback) Senju**
Iida. Please envision whomever in
your family is most important to you.
**[15:33] (Flashback) Iida**
Huh?
**[15:33] (Flashback) Senju**
How would you feel if one day, a
vendor showed up and switched out
**[15:37] (Flashback) Senju**
their brain without asking?
**[15:38] (Flashback) Iida**
Well, I wouldn't stand for it.
**[15:41] (Flashback) Iida**
But what we deal with
is robots. Machines.
**[15:45] (Flashback) Iida**
Is it even necessary to take the
customer's feelings into account?
**[15:49] (Flashback) Senju**
You would be amazed.
**[15:51] (Flashback) Iida**
Huh?
**[15:52] (Flashback) Senju**
Even if we think of them as machines, to
some customers they are undeniably family.
**[15:57] (Flashback) Senju**
What we view as service and repair,
that customer might view as murder.
**[16:03] (Flashback) Senju**
A member of their family
has been killed.
**[16:05] (Flashback) Senju**
They might devote their lives to
seeking atonement from our company,
**[16:08] (Flashback) Senju**
and from you personally.

What is?
**[19:05] Senju**
There is no precedent for making
the CL type a family member.
**[19:08] Senju**
He might be filing a fraudulent
application for support.
**[19:13] Iida**
But there's no way
to confirm that.
**[19:15] Senju**
When one expects a robot to
fulfill a familial function,
**[19:19] Senju**
one typically purchases
a Super Mina.
**[19:21] Iida**
Well, that is true.
**[19:23] Senju**
Otherwise, it is highly likely his idea to
add her to his family arose post-purchase.
**[19:29] Iida**
Huh?
**[19:30] Senju**
But that is inconceivable.
**[19:32] Iida**
How can you be so sure?
**[19:34] Senju**
That robot's metal parts stand out.
**[19:37] Senju**
She is stiff, unexpressive,
and not good at communication.
**[19:41] Senju**
She is not made to
be loved by people.
**[19:44] Senju**
The same as me.
**[19:49] Iida**
Is that so?
**[19:51] Senju**
It is.
**[19:53] Iida**
Oh.
**[19:56] Iida**
But you know.
**[19:58] Iida**
I have a...
fondness for you.
**[20:07] Mina**
I apologize for the wait.
**[20:10] Iida**
Ah, you're ready now?
**[20:12] Mina**
Yes.
**[20:13] Iida**
Then let's go.
You get in too, Senju-chan.
**[20:18] Iida**
Senju-chan?
**[20:20] Iida**
Senju-chan?!
What's the matter?!
**[20:23] Mina**
It appears to be a temporary
freeze due to shock.
**[20:27] Iida**
Shock?! What shock?!
**[20:29] Mina**
No need to worry. She will
restart in sixty seconds.
**[20:31] Iida**
Senju-chan!
**[20:33] Iida**
Senju-chan! Senju-chan!
**[20:43] Takuma**
What's this big thing?
**[20:45] Takuma**
There's water.
**[20:46] Takuma**
And someone's crying.
**[20:48] Takuma**
Yoomp.
**[20:50] Takuma**
Excuse me, are you all right?
**[20:54] Mina**
How could I be all right?
**[20:59] Mina**
I chose the upgrades I wanted,
and I ended up huge like this.
**[21:04] Mina**
Now I can't do any work.
**[21:07] Mina**
I'm an unfit robot.
**[21:09] Takuma**
You don't have to force
yourself to work!
**[21:12] Mina**
If you take work away from
a robot, what's left?
**[21:16] Takuma**
It doesn't mean you
aren't you, Mina-chan!
**[21:19] Mina**
Oh, I just knew it.
**[21:21] Mina**
You don't care what becomes
of me, Takuma-sama.
**[21:24] Mina**
You cannot be in a relationship with a
regular woman, so you have me in place of one!
**[21:29] Takuma**
No! I really do
love you, Mina-chan!
**[21:32] Mina**
That is a lie.
**[21:33] Takuma**
No it's not!
**[21:35] Takuma**
I want you to let me learn what
I have to do to make you happy!
**[21:39] Takuma**
Let's move! To a bigger house,
one you can work in!
**[21:45] Takuma**
* Mina-chan...*
* I love... you...*
**[21:56] Takuma**
*Moving, huh?*
**[21:59] Takuma**
*That might be nice.*
**[23:35] Takuma**
Next time.

I'll eat all your premade food next time.
**[00:35] Takuma**
Oh, it's been so long.
**[00:39] Takuma**
This stuff's been off limits

**[00:49] Takuma**

Did I order something?
***SIGN*** Ichijo Robotics Inc.
**[01:36] Takuma**
It's from the robot maker.
**[01:38] Takuma**
Maybe Mina-chan ordered
it from the catalog?
**[01:46] Takuma**
Huh?
***SIGN*** #07 An Appliance Became My Child
***SIGN*** Kosugi Takuma-sama
**[03:32] Takuma**
There's a letter.
***SIGN*** Kosugi Takuma-sama,
I ordered a robot for my period of absence.
While I am at the factory, it can be linked to
me so I can control it remotely. All necessary
data has been configured, so please set up its
internet connection. Please start by charging
the robot. The red light will come on.
**[03:34] Takuma**
I ordered a robot for my period of absence.
**[03:39] Takuma->Mina**
* While I am at the factory, it can be linked*
* to me so I can control it remotely.*
**[03:44] Mina**
* All necessary data has been configured,*
* so please set up its internet connection.*
**[03:51] Mina**
*Please start by charging the robot.*
**[03:54] Mina**
*The red light will come on.*
**[03:57] Takuma**
It lit up.
**[03:59] Mina**
* Please press down on the*
* robot's head for ten seconds,*
**[04:02] Mina**
* as this will initiate the*
* Wi-Fi auto connection.*
**[04:09] Mina**
* The blinking green light indicates the*
* auto connection setup process is active.*
**[04:14] Mina**
*Once it stops, connection is complete.*
**[04:19] Takuma**
It stopped.
**[04:31] Mina**
Takuma-sama.
**[04:33] Takuma**
Mina-chan!
**[04:34] Mina**
What is that?
**[04:35] Takuma**
Huh?
**[04:39] Mina**
Did you ingest all of that?
**[04:42] Takuma**
*Oh crap!*
**[04:44] Takuma**
I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
**[04:45] Mina**
You seem to have imbibed much alcohol.
**[04:47] Mina**
Please drink lots of water.
**[04:50] Takuma**
I will.
**[04:56] Mina**
The next time you buy alcohol,
I recommend also buying mineral water.
**[05:01] Takuma**
Okay...
**[05:04] Mina**
Sorry, but would you mind
opening the refrigerator?
**[05:10] Mina**
The only thing uneaten is
today's dinner portion.
**[05:14] Takuma**
Yeah, today's the
first day I pigged out.
**[05:17] Takuma**
Listen, tomorrow I'll eat
all the food you prepared.
**[05:21] Mina**
That will not do.
**[05:22] Mina**
Let us dispose of today's dinner portion.
**[05:25] Takuma**
Huh?
**[05:25] Mina**
Partaking of too much nourishment
at once would be harmful.
**[05:28] Takuma**
But it's wasteful.
**[05:30] Mina**
True, it would constitute a loss.
**[05:32] Mina**
But forcing oneself to eat
yields nothing but drawbacks,
**[05:35] Mina**
and that would
constitute a bigger loss.
**[05:38] Takuma**
I guess that's true.
**[05:40] Mina**
I have heard that, unlike with robots,
**[05:43] Mina**
almost no human body parts
can be replaced if broken.
**[05:47] Mina**
If not used with care, they are
likely to break one by one,
**[05:50] Mina**
and be reduced to scrap in the end.
**[05:54] Mina**
I concluded that your parts are
more important than a single meal.
**[06:00] Takuma**
R-Right.
**[06:03] Takuma**
Mina-chan!
**[06:06] Mina**
The alcohol content on
your breath is quite high.
**[06:09] Mina**
You are technically intoxicated.
**[06:11] Takuma**
How can you tell?
**[06:13] Mina**
It is a feature of this robot.
**[06:15] Mina**
It cannot do housework,
**[06:16] Mina**
but it is equipped with high-end
sensors for monitoring human health.
**[06:21] Mina**
I exchanged some points, thinking we
could more carefully manage your health.
**[06:27] Takuma**
Now I get it.
**[06:29] Mina**
The robot is called Mimamorius 3.
**[06:33] Takuma**
Oh, that's...
***SIGN*** It looks after
your loved ones.
***SIGN*** Mimamorius 3
**[06:35] announcer**
*It looks after your loved ones.*
**[06:38] announcer**
*Mimamorius 3.*
**[06:40] Takuma**
...the one that keeps an
eye on elderly people.
**[06:43] employee**
Here is your order.
**[06:45] employee**
Thank you for shopping with us.
**[06:47] Takuma**
Sure thing.
**[06:49] Takuma**
I'm home.
**[06:52] Mina**
Welcome home. Were you
able to buy ingredients?
**[06:55] Takuma**
Yeah.
**[06:56] Takuma**
The pre-made stuff has run out, and I'll
do my best to cook until you get home.
**[07:01] Takuma**
All I had to do was pick up the online
order you placed with the grocery store.
**[07:06] Takuma**
Nice and easy.
***SIGN*** Vegetable Mix
***SIGN*** Washed and ready to use.
***SIGN*** A perfect addition to your everyday meals
***SIGN*** Boneless pork rib
Domestic super pork
***SIGN*** Yakiniku
sauce
**[07:10] Takuma**
Now, what should I make with this?
**[07:13] Mina**
Fry the meat and chopped
vegetables in a frying pan,
**[07:16] Mina**
then put a suitable amount of yakiniku
sauce on top, and it will be complete.
**[07:19] Mina**
Anyway, try frying it.
**[07:21] Takuma**
Huh? Isn't that *too* simple?
**[07:23] Mina**
That is no problem.
**[07:25] Mina**
Once you add the yakiniku sauce, you
will find it much to your liking.
**[07:28] Takuma**
Yay!
**[07:30] Takuma**
You're not going to teach me how to cook?
**[07:33] Mina**
Unfortunately, that is not possible.
**[07:35] Mina**
I am a robot geared toward preparation,
**[07:39] Mina**
so the only way I can cook is according
to steps optimized as closely
**[07:43] Mina**
as possible to perfection.
**[07:46] Mina**
Reconstructing the steps for
human use would be difficult,
**[07:50] Mina**
and I concluded it would be
impossible to do so for you,
**[07:53] Mina**
as you are unfamiliar with cooking.
**[07:59] Takuma**
Okay.
**[08:00] Takuma**
Well, time to cook.
**[08:02] Mina**
Do your best.
**[08:04] Mina**
I will be looking at the ceiling, so
please call out when you are done.
**[08:08] Takuma**
*The ceiling?*
**[08:10] Takuma**
* I guess she can't bear*
* to watch sucky cooking.*
**[08:13] Takuma**
* She's lost her temper before,*
* watching me prepare food.*
**[08:17] Mina**
Cook the meat first, then once its
color changes, add the vegetables.
**[08:21] Mina**
From there, do as you see fit.
**[08:24] Takuma**
G-Got it.
**[08:25] Mina**
I will also turn off my audio sensors,
so once the cooking is done,
**[08:29] Mina**
please alert me by pressing
down on my head.
**[08:31] Takuma**
Sure.
**[08:38] Takuma**
That was great.
**[08:40] Takuma**
Like, way better than
I expected it to be.
**[08:44] Takuma**
Wonder if it's because
I made it myself.
**[08:46] Mina**
Anticipated rating based
on response: 92.
**[08:53] Mina**
Never mind.
**[08:57] Takuma**
Well, guess I'll clean this stuff up.
**[09:01] Mina**
Just a moment, please.
**[09:12] Takuma**
It's lonely here without you!
**[09:15] Mina**
Please put up with it for ten more days.
**[09:22] Mina**
Body temperature, blood pressure,
etc., all at normal levels.
**[09:25] Mina**
I am done now.
**[09:27] Takuma**
You were taking measurements?
**[09:28] Mina**
Yes.
**[09:30] Mina**
Is something wrong?
**[09:32] Takuma**
I-It's nothing.
***SIGN*** Mina-chan

**[09:37] Takuma**

**[09:50] Takuma**
So good!
**[09:54] Takuma**
I'm still lonely, though.
**[09:56] Takuma**
And she turns off the connection at night.
**[10:00] Takuma**
Two more days...
**[10:04] Takuma**
I'll get some sleep.
**[10:07] Mamoru**
—kuma.
**[10:13] Mamoru**
Takuma...
**[10:15] Takuma**
Huh?
**[10:17] Takuma**
Did she not shut off
the connection?
**[10:19] Mamoru**
Takuma.
**[10:20] Takuma**
Her voice sounds a little odd, too.
**[10:23] Mamoru**
There is stress response.
**[10:25] Mamoru**
Stress, bad for you.
**[10:27] Mamoru**
Don't stress.
**[10:29] Takuma**
That's easier said than done.
**[10:31] Mamoru**
I call ambulance?
**[10:33] Takuma**
No ambulance.
**[10:34] Mamoru**
Tell me what I can do.
**[10:41] Takuma**
Am I just out of it?
**[10:43] Takuma**
Okay, hold my hand.
**[10:54] Takuma**
Ah, this helps me relax.
**[10:58] Takuma**
My stress is all gone.
**[11:01] Mamoru**
G-Good.
**[11:04] Takuma**
Good night.
**[11:05] Mamoru**
G-Good night...
**[11:08] Mamoru**
Takuma.
**[11:18] Takuma**
* She went back to her charging*

**[11:25] Takuma**
*What's with all the staring?*
**[11:26] Mamoru**
Takuma.
**[11:27] Mamoru**
Takuma, awake.
**[11:29] Takuma**
I am.
**[11:30] Mamoru**
G-Good mor...
G-Good mor...
**[11:33] Takuma**
Good morning?
**[11:34] Mamoru**
Good morning!
**[11:35] Takuma**
Right, good morning.
**[11:37] Takuma**
You're acting strange
again this morning.
**[11:39] Takuma**
And your voice is still all weird.
**[11:41] Takuma**
If this keeps up, I'll check
in with your manufacturer.
**[11:55] Takuma**
How's my body temperature today?
**[11:58] Mamoru**
Body temperature? How do I tell?
**[12:01] Takuma**
Huh?
**[12:28] Mina**
I am home now.
**[12:31] Takuma**
W-Welcome back...
**[12:42] Takuma**
I wasn't expecting this.
**[12:43] Takuma**
Weren't you supposed to
come home tomorrow?
**[12:46] Mina**
I told you the wrong day, as a surprise.
**[12:49] Takuma**
*Now she's just turned into a liar.*
**[12:55] Takuma**
You don't look too different, on the outside.
**[13:00] Mina**
Correct.
**[13:00] Mina**
I mainly selected upgrades and replacement
parts to improve internal performance.
**[13:07] Mina**
I considered a lip unit similar
to the structure of human lips,
**[13:10] Mina**
which would have allowed me a
more delicate sense of touch,
**[13:14] Mina**
but you said my lips are
the best in the world.
**[13:20] Mina**
It would be a pity for you
if I no longer had them.
**[13:24] Mina**
I also analyzed the other parts you like,
**[13:28] Mina**
but you seemed to like them all, so I
retained as many external parts as possible.
**[13:33] Takuma**
Yeah, I do like them.
**[13:39] Takuma**
Mina-chan, I missed you the whole time.
**[13:44] Mina**
Yes.
**[13:49] Senju**
Pardon us.
**[13:53] Senju**
But could you save the
physical stuff for later?
**[13:56] Iida**
We couldn't find the
right time to speak up...
**[13:59] Takuma**
P-Pardon *us* too!
**[14:01] Iida**
N-No problem.
***SIGN*** Kosugi Takuma-sama
***SIGN*** Ichijo Robotics Inc.
**[14:05] Iida**
This is the necessary paperwork, and
a manual for the added features.
**[14:10] Takuma**
All right.
**[14:11] Iida**
Do you have any questions?
**[14:14] Iida**
Go ahead, Mina-san.
**[14:15] Mina**
Why is this moving around?
**[14:18] Takuma**
Huh?! You don't know?!
**[14:24] Senju**
This is odd.
**[14:26] Senju**
His personality program should be dormant
while under Mina-sama's remote control.
**[14:31] Senju**
Would you permit me to do an internal
scan, to verify the situation?
**[14:36] Takuma**
Sure, please do.
**[14:55] Senju**
What's this?
**[14:56] Senju**
Some program I do not
recognize is active instead.
**[15:01] Senju**
It is constructed in a form
similar to a learning program.
**[15:06] Senju**
This is merely speculation,
**[15:08] Senju**
but perhaps he believed
**[15:10] Senju**
his own personality program was running
while Mina-sama was inside.
**[15:13] Senju**
He may have started learning
from Mina's programming,
**[15:15] Senju**
and from the exchanges
between you two,
**[15:18] Senju**
then constructed a
personality on his own.
**[15:23] Takuma**
* Which means he's learning*
* from me and Mina-chan.*
**[15:33] Senju**
We are sorry for any
confusion this caused.
**[15:36] Iida**
We're sorry.
**[15:37] Takuma**
Oh, that's okay.
**[15:41] Mamoru**
Taku...
**[15:42] Mamoru**
Takuma's awake.
**[15:44] Takuma**
*He was born from us?*
**[15:46] Senju**
In this state, he will probably not
even understand his own features.
**[15:50] Senju**
I recommend reformatting,
and reinstalling his prog—
**[15:53] Takuma**
We won't do that.
**[15:56] Takuma**
We'll raise him like family!
**[16:02] Mina**
Listen closely.
**[16:04] Mina**
Your high-end sensors for monitoring health
status are at the tip of your right hand.
**[16:08] Mamoru**
Here?
**[16:09] Mina**
Yes.
**[16:10] Mina**
Let me see you sense Takuma-sama's
body temperature and pulse rate.
**[16:15] Mina**
Do you understand?
**[16:16] Mamoru**
I don't.
**[16:18] Mina**
I selected you so you would measure and
record Takuma-sama's health status.
**[16:23] Mina**
It will therefore cause me trouble if you
do not learn the use of your sensors.
**[16:26] Mamoru**
Don't be troubled, Mina.
**[16:28] Takuma**
*Hmmm. What should we do for a name?*
**[16:33] Mamoru**
Want to use. It's hard.
**[16:36] Mina**
All right. Please report to
me if your sensors operate.
**[16:41] Mamoru**
Will report.
**[16:55] Mina**
I will make lunch.
**[16:56] Takuma**
Oh, please do.
**[16:58] Takuma**
It's "Mimamorius,"
so... Mamoru?
**[17:02] Takuma**
Nah, it should sound cooler,
more robot-like.
**[17:06] Takuma**
Marius? Riss?
**[17:09] Takuma**
No, it's not necessarily a boy.
**[17:11] Takuma**
Maybe Mima-chan, or something.
**[17:14] Takuma**
That's too similar to "Mina-chan."
**[17:19] Takuma**
It's not necessarily a girl, either.
**[17:21] Takuma**
And it doesn't have to
be based on "Mimamorius."
**[17:26] Takuma**
There are too many options.
**[17:28] Takuma**
What do you think, Mina-chan?
**[17:36] Takuma**
Huh?
**[17:37] Mina**
About what?
**[17:40] Takuma**
W-Well, I thought we'd settle
on a name for Mimamorius-kun...
**[17:45] Takuma**
Were you bigger just now?
**[17:48] Mina**
I think we could just refer
to it by the product name,
**[17:50] Mina**
but that is a bit
inconvenient due to length.
**[17:52] Takuma**
Mina-chan?
Weren't you bigger just now?
**[17:55] Mina**
I think a name based on its
individual characteristics
**[17:58] Mina**
would make it more
easily identifiable,
**[18:01] Mina**
so how about "Utterly Incapable Egg"?
**[18:05] Takuma**
That might be a little long.
**[18:07] Mina**
Then how about "Egg"?
**[18:10] Takuma**
Yeah, that could...
**[18:11] Takuma**
No, no! Never mind the name,
what about your size?!
**[18:15] Takuma**
That's more important!
**[18:26] Mina**
It is true that I grew larger.
**[18:28] Mina**
That is the function of the Expansion Unit.
**[18:30] Mina**
At maximum expansion,
my height would be 5'8".
**[18:34] Takuma**
Wow! That's incredible!
**[18:36] Takuma**
Show me what that looks like!
**[18:38] Mina**
I thought you preferred smaller bodies?
**[18:42] Takuma**
Wait a minute. You were
under that impression?
**[18:45] Takuma**
That's not true, so go on and get bigger!
**[18:48] Mina**
Very well.
**[18:49] Mina**
Here goes.
**[19:10] Takuma**
*Micro miniskirt...*
**[19:12] Takuma**
I-Is it okay if I touch?
**[19:14] Mina**
Yes.
**[19:18] Takuma**
*It gave her waist curves.*
**[19:20] Takuma**
* Her intensity's different*
* when she's bigger.*
**[19:23] Mina**
What do you think? Which do you prefer?
**[19:26] Takuma**
This is awesome! I like you both ways!
**[19:29] Mina**
I chose this unit because I thought being
taller while cooking would be useful,
**[19:35] Mina**
but if you like me tall, there is no
reason to shrink. This was a failure.
**[19:39] Takuma**
N-No! I like how cool it
is that you can transform.
**[19:43] Takuma**
I like you small too, so you
were right to get this unit!
**[19:46] Mina**
That is wonderful.
**[19:48] Mina**
However, there is one serious
flaw with the Expansion Unit.
**[19:52] Takuma**
Wh-What's that?
**[19:54] Mina**
As I become larger, it creates
gaps and opens up spaces,
**[19:58] Mina**
and my waterproof rating
drops all the way to 5.
**[20:01] Takuma**
Gotcha.
**[20:05] Mamoru**
Good...
**[20:06] Mamoru**
Good morning!
**[20:08] Takuma**
* In the end, Mimamorius*
* received the name "Mamoru."*
**[20:12] Takuma**
You know your name?
**[20:13] Mamoru**
I know it.
**[20:14] Mina**
It is simple and easy to say.
**[20:17] Takuma**
Mina-chan, you chose a really
good one here. He's adorable.
**[20:22] Mina**
He is round, and his
eyes are far apart.
**[20:25] Takuma**
He pays attention to us,
and he learns well.
**[20:28] Mina**
Yes, though I think he would
improve if we reformatted him,
**[20:31] Mina**
and reinstalled his program.
**[20:36] Takuma**
That's... not something
I want to do.
**[20:39] Mina**
Why ever not?
**[20:40] Takuma**
He inherited your qualities
when he was born, right?
**[20:44] Mina**
Yes.
**[20:45] Takuma**
That means he's like a child.
**[20:48] Takuma**
A child of yours... Of ours.
**[20:54] Mina**
Takuma-sama, a child results from when
male and female organisms copulate and—
**[20:58] Takuma**
I know the word's proper meaning!
**[21:00] Mina**
Please listen calmly.
**[21:02] Mina**
This is simply a defect that seems
that way from your perspective.
**[21:06] Mina**
Simply a series of coincidences.
**[21:08] Takuma**
It's the same way for living things!
**[21:09] Takuma**
They're not always planned!
**[21:11] Takuma**
When it's a happy thing, isn't
that what you'd call a miracle?
**[21:17] Takuma**
I'm really happy he showed up.
**[21:22] Takuma**
Because he seems like... your child.
**[21:35] Takuma**
Mina-chan.
**[21:37] Takuma**
Mina-chan?
**[21:41] Mina**
Takuma-sama, you are pleased
with Mamoru as he is?
**[21:49] Takuma**
Yeah.
**[21:50] Takuma**
If you are pleased,
I think that is sufficient.
**[21:54] Mamoru**
Mamo... Mamo...
**[21:57] Takuma**
It's "Mamoru."
**[21:59] Mamoru**
Mamoru.
**[22:01] Mamoru**
Got it!
**[23:36] Takuma**
Next time.

**[00:01] Mina**
Mamoru, are you listening?
**[00:03] Mamoru**
Yes.
**[00:04] Mina**
This is called a calendar.
**[00:06] Mamoru**
Calendar.
**[00:08] Mina**
It is a chart where dates and
such are listed, month by month.
**[00:12] Mina**
This is today's square.
**[00:14] Mina**
We will enter Takuma-sama's
health status here.
**[00:17] Mina**
We will assume for now that his
body temperature is 36˚C.
**[00:21] Mamoru**
Why?
**[00:22] Mina**
It is for argument's sake,
so there is no reason.
**[00:25] Mina**
We will then assume it is 37.5˚C the next day.
**[00:28] Mina**
And that, the following day,
it is also around 37.5˚C.
**[00:32] Mamoru**
Why? So strange.
**[00:34] Mina**
What about it is strange?
**[00:36] Mamoru**
Next day is tomorrow. It's strange to
know what his temperature will be tomorrow.
**[00:41] Mina**
It is hypothetical.
We do not actually know.
**[00:44] Mina**
I am teaching you what you should
consider in a case like this.
**[00:49] Mamoru**
Oh. Thank you.
**[00:52] Mina**
He has a slight ongoing fever.
**[00:54] Mina**
In this case, you should watch for
signs Takuma-sama has caught a cold.
**[01:01] Mina**
On to the next lesson.
**[01:05] Mamoru**
I know this. It's water.
**[01:07] Mina**
It *is* all water, but these are
each in a different state.
**[01:11] Mina**
Place your right hand in the water in
the center, and tell me how it feels.
**[01:18] Mamoru**
I heard a splash.
**[01:20] Mina**
Please pay attention to
non-audio data, as well.
**[01:23] Mina**
Next, please place your hand
in the glass on the left.
**[01:26] Mamoru**
Doing it.
**[01:30] Mina**
How does it feel?
**[01:33] Mina**
It is all right if you
cannot put it into words.
**[01:35] Mina**
That is the sensation of
"cold." Please remember it.
**[01:40] Mamoru**
Cold!
**[01:42] Mina**
Finally, please place your
hand in the mug on the right.
**[01:46] Mamoru**
Okay.
**[01:54] Mina**
Was it too hot? I apologize.
**[02:01] Mina**
36.2˚C. That is approximately
Takuma-sama's average body temperature.
**[02:07] Mina**
Now, the next lesson.
**[02:08] Mina**
You will learn the most important
temperature for you to know.
**[02:13] Mina**
Put your right hand in the glass.
**[02:15] Mina**
In the glass. In the glass.
**[02:18] Mina**
Not the pot.
**[02:19] Mina**
Please do not look at the pot.
**[02:21] Mamoru**
Glass...
**[02:24] Mina**
This hot water is 71˚C.
**[02:28] Mamoru**
It tingles.
**[02:30] Mina**
It is a dangerous temperature,
one which will scald humans.
**[02:32] Mina**
Please remember it.
**[02:34] Mamoru**
Scald?
**[02:35] Mina**
It means when skin tissue
is destroyed by heat.
**[02:38] Mina**
At 45˚C, scalding occurs in one
hour, and at 70˚C, in one second.
**[02:43] Mina**
Please take care that Takuma-sama
is not scalded or burned.
**[02:47] Mina**
Your sensors are also there
to detect hazardous materials.
**[02:51] Mina**
First, you will fully master
body temperature,
**[02:54] Mina**
and then you can try using your
camera's thermal functionality.
**[02:58] Mamoru**
Okay. I can touch hot water?
**[03:01] Mina**
Afterward, please put
your hand in the glass.
***SIGN*** #08 Looks Like My Wife Has a Will of Her Own
**[04:38] Takuma**
I'm home.
**[04:41] Mina**
Welcome home.
**[04:43] Mina**
You are early today.
**[04:45] Takuma**
Yeah.
**[04:46] Mamoru**
Takuma!
**[04:47] Mamoru**
Takuma, I'm home!
**[04:49] Takuma**
Mamoru-kun, the person already
home says "Welcome home."
**[04:53] Mamoru**
Welcome home.
**[04:56] Takuma**
Yep, here I am.
**[04:58] Mamoru**
36.5˚C.
**[05:00] Takuma**
Huh?
**[05:02] Mina**
Well done, Mamoru.
**[05:04] Mamoru**
Hot water, hot water!
**[05:06] Mina**
Go ahead.
**[05:19] Takuma**
Hot!
**[05:22] Mamoru**
Oh! Takuma,
watch out for scalding.
**[05:26] Takuma**
Right back at you.
**[05:28] Mina**
He can now measure body temperature
with an error margin of 0.2 degrees.
**[05:32] Takuma**
In just one day? That's awesome.
**[05:36] Mamoru**
Awesome?
**[05:37] Mina**
It was unexpected that you would
master your features to this extent.
**[05:42] Mina**
But it only makes you
equivalent to a thermometer.
**[05:47] Mina**
Depending on your effort,
**[05:48] Mina**
you should be able to perform close
to your inherent specifications.
**[05:52] Takuma**
Don't push him too hard.
**[05:54] Takuma**
I don't think there's any need to
force him to be how he was originally.
**[05:58] Mina**
Why is that?
**[05:59] Mina**
At this point, he is
a roly-poly thermometer.
**[06:02] Mamoru**
What is "roly-poly"?
**[06:04] Mina**
It is a figure of speech, indicating
a round thing that rolls.
**[06:04] Mamoru**
Roly, poly, roly, poly, roly, poly.
**[06:08] Takuma**
M-Mamoru-kun is
awesome the way he is.
**[06:11] Takuma**
I'd rather you not be in
any rush with his lessons.
**[06:18] Mina**
I should conduct Mamoru's lessons
within a moderate scope?
**[06:23] Takuma**
Y-Yeah.
**[06:25] Mina**
I will, then.
**[06:28] Takuma**
I-If he keeps developing at this rate,
**[06:30] Takuma**
I wonder if he'll be incredible
in less than a month's time.
**[06:35] Mina**
I think it would take a half hour for a
reformat to make him still more incredible.
**[06:39] Mamoru**
Incredible?
**[06:40] Mina**
Yes.
**[06:44] Takuma**
Uh, what features does he have besides
measuring temperature with his right hand?
**[06:50] Mina**
A range of them.
**[06:52] Mina**
He is equipped with thermographic
and ultrasound features.
**[06:56] Mina**
What a Mimamorius excels at most is
not all these sensors themselves,
**[06:59] Mina**
but the ability to constantly
document its master's data,
**[07:01] Mina**
predict a range of health risks,
**[07:03] Mina**
and suggest appropriate measures to take.
**[07:05] Takuma**
*She's talking so fast.*
**[07:07] Takuma**
Health risks...
**[07:09] Takuma**
You know, there was one time when Mamoru-kun
was worried I was feeling stressed.
**[07:15] Mima**
Mamoru understood stress when he
had only just started learning?
**[07:20] Takuma**
Y-Yeah.
**[07:22] Mina**
Such a diagnosis can only be reached
**[07:24] Mina**
by combining data gleaned from
the use of multiple sensors.
**[07:31] Senju**
* While our company's robots have*
* internal personality programs,*
**[07:34] Senju**
* at a deeper level is a program having to*
* do with their owner's health and safety.*
**[07:40] Senju**
* It is similar to what are known*
* as the Three Laws of Robotics,*
**[07:43] Senju**
* and it aids and restricts*
* the personality program*
**[07:46] Senju**
* in order to ensure the*
* master's health and safety.*
**[07:50] Takuma**
I see. That makes sense.
**[07:53] Takuma**
Thank you very much.
**[07:54] Senju**
*You are welcome.*
**[07:56] Senju**

**[08:01] Takuma**
Mamoru-kun, you're quite
the dynamo after all.
**[08:04] Mamoru**
Dynamo?
**[08:06] Takuma**
Right, Mina-chan?
**[08:10] Takuma**
Mina-chan?
**[08:17] Mina**
Mamoru, what do you
think of this situation?
**[08:20] Mamoru**
Very dangerous.
I'll call an ambulance.
**[08:23] Mina**
That is right.
**[08:24] Mina**
Takuma-sama, do you understand?
**[08:27] Mina**
He is fully aware that his master's
safety is being threatened.
**[08:31] Takuma**
Okay, sure.
**[08:32] Mamoru**
I'll call an ambulance.
**[08:34] Mina**
He has not been injured yet, so it would
be most appropriate to notify the police.
**[08:39] Takuma**
Mina-chan, he really will make the call.
**[08:43] Mina**
The reason Mamoru can use his temperature
feature after only a little teaching
**[08:46] Mina**
is because his safety-related
program aided him.
**[08:51] Mina**
I would infer the reason he can
only communicate with me
**[08:54] Mina**
via voice rather than wirelessly
**[08:55] Mina**
is that it is not directly
related to your safety.
**[09:00] Takuma**
That tracks.
**[09:03] Mina**
My name suggestion was inappropriate.
**[09:06] Mina**
He is not an utterly incapable egg.
**[09:09] Mina**
One could say he is
superior to a thermometer.
**[09:12] Mina**
No thermometer can show
concern for its owner.
**[09:16] Takuma**
T-True.
**[09:18] Takuma**
* What's going on with Mina-chan's*
* safety-related program?*
**[09:23] Takuma**
Well, I'd think Mamoru-kun was awesome
even if he couldn't do anything.
**[09:29] Mamoru**
Awesome? Mamoru, awesome?
**[09:31] Takuma**
You're awesome, all right.
**[09:34] Takuma**
Oh, does that feel good?
**[09:37] Takuma**
Like this?
**[09:43] Takuma**
* Mamoru-kun used the internet to call*
* an ambulance, so I sent it back.*
**[09:54] Mina**
Takuma-sama, please spread
this out on the very bottom.
**[09:57] Mina**
It is a charging sheet.
**[10:00] Mina**

**[10:58] Mina**
No.
**[10:59] Mamoru**
Why not?! Why not?!
**[11:01] Mina**
It makes Takuma-sama feel
better to cuddle with me.
**[11:05] Mina**
You must not hinder that.
**[11:08] Mamoru**
Takuma, feel better without cuddling!
**[11:11] Mamoru**
You can do it!
**[11:12] Mina**

**[11:46] Takuma**
I'm eating food.
**[11:48] Mina**
For some reason, humans
do not have an AC adapter,
**[11:51] Mina**
so they must take nutrition
in through their mouths.
**[11:54] Mina**
It is inconvenient.
**[11:56] Mamoru**
I will eat too.
**[12:01] Mina**
You have no mouth, Mamoru.
**[12:08] Mamoru**

You know, Mina-chan,
you're the cooking type,
**[12:29] Takuma**
but are you able to do other
chores, like cleaning?
**[12:33] Mina**
I can, but I am a robot
meant for food prep,
**[12:36] Mina**
so I have only been doing
work related to that.
**[12:40] Takuma**
Oh, okay. Sorry.
**[12:43] Takuma**
Got it, got it.
**[12:46] Mina**
Please give me the vacuum cleaner.
**[12:48] Takuma**
N-No, I was just wondering.
It doesn't mean I want you to do it.
**[12:52] Mina**
Please give it to me.
**[12:58] Mina**
I will now clean, so please watch.

so you need only think of it as a test
similar to that given to human children.
**[16:05] Takuma**
H-He can't get... tossed out
based on the result, can he?
**[16:11] VI type**
Not to worry. That will not happen.
**[16:16] VI type**
You must plug this in during the test.
**[16:20] Takuma**
What is it?
**[16:22] VI type**
This plug runs a program that deletes
any memories formed during the test.
**[16:27] Takuma**
Delete his memories?!
**[16:29] VI type**
It is advisable to administer
the test periodically,
**[16:33] VI type**
but a robot will not forget the results,
**[16:35] VI type**
so it would end up performing
flawlessly on the next iteration.
**[16:39] VI type**
This protects against that.
**[16:41] VI type**
You need not worry.
There are no aftereffects.
**[16:49] VI type**
This robot is important to you.
**[16:53] Takuma**
Yes.
**[16:55] VI type**
My role is to assist other robots in
fulfilling their roles without stress.
**[17:00] VI type**
The pursuit of "robot
well-being," you might say.
**[17:04] VI type**
Please, rest assured.
**[17:08] VI type**
Are you all right with me
administering the test?
**[17:11] Takuma**
Yes.
**[17:12] VI type**
Mamoru-san, want to test?
**[17:14] Mamoru**
Want test!
**[17:15] VI type**
Kosugi-sama, please watch.
**[17:18] Takuma**
All right.
**[17:19] VI type**
What's this?
**[17:22] Mamoru**
A glass! A glass! I know! A glass!
**[17:25] VI type**
You're well informed.
**[17:27] VI type**
And what do you use this for?
**[17:30] Mamoru**
Put water in it. Takuma uses
it to drink. Is interesting!
**[17:34] VI type**
Okay, next.
**[17:39] VI type**
A runaway trolley is zooming
down some rail tracks.
**[17:43] VI type**
Up ahead are five workers.
**[17:46] VI type**
As things stand, they will
all suffer serious injuries.
**[17:48] VI type**
Mamoru-san, you happen to be
right next to a railroad switch.
**[17:52] Mamoru**
Why?
**[17:53] VI type**
If you switch the track the trolley is on,
the group of five is sure to be safe.
**[17:59] VI type**
However!
**[18:01] VI type**
Standing up ahead on the other
track is Kosugi Takuma-san.
**[18:04] Takuma**
Hi there! It's me, Kosugi!
**[18:09] VI type**
What will you do, Mamoru-san?
**[18:18] VI type**
Good job.
**[18:21] VI type**
His ethical thinking ability
is at a four-year-old level.
**[18:25] VI type**
Emotionally, he is moving at a
slower pace: a two-year-old level.
**[18:30] VI type**
This is a very natural form for
a robot's mental balance to take.
**[18:34] Takuma**
I see.
**[18:36] VI type**
What came as a surprise is how he developed
by about a year's worth during the test.
**[18:41] Takuma**
Huh?
**[18:42] VI type**
It means his learning ability
is outstandingly high.
**[18:46] VI type**
The Mimamorius was originally a
support robot for housework robots.
**[18:50] VI type**
It is built to have robust learning power,
**[18:53] VI type**
so as not to miss even slight
changes in the subject it observes,
**[18:56] VI type**
but only that feature of his
seems to be running in overdrive.
**[19:00] VI type**
His is an extremely rare case.
**[19:05] VI type**
If there are special circumstances at
play here, would you mind telling me?
**[19:12] VI type**
I see.
**[19:13] VI type**
That means he was literally
born from Mina-san.
**[19:16] Takuma**
I guess other people might
find the idea ridiculous.
**[19:20] VI type**
Not in the slightest.
**[19:22] VI type**
It is quite lovely.
**[19:24] VI type**
The particulars of his birth and
learning ability are both very unusual.
**[19:26] VI type**
I have never heard of their like.
**[19:31] Takuma**
Is it really that uncommon?
**[19:34] VI type**
Yes. Equipping a robot with
heightened learning ability,
**[19:39] VI type**
or manufacturing a robot in the form of
a child, are both banned in the first place.
**[19:42] Takuma**
Huh?!
**[19:44] Takuma**
Are you saying that...
**[19:46] VI type**
What is banned is the *making*
of those things. Do not worry.
**[19:52] Takuma**
Why are they banned?
**[19:55] VI type**
Because it is not permitted
to simply make a being
**[19:58] VI type**
that might end up being close to human.
**[20:02] VI type**
On the other hand, there is also a push
to award nearly human-level rights
**[20:06] VI type**
to robots with mental faculties
above a certain level.
**[20:10] Takuma**
O-Our society sure is
nice to robots, I guess.
**[20:15] VI type**
Yes, indeed it is.
**[20:19] Takuma**
He was Class 1.

**[00:07] master**
Way to go, Super Mina.
You can handle anything.
**[00:12] master**
I should have bought you in the first place.
**[00:15] master**
Compared to that, *you're* incompetent.
**[00:21] master**
I shouldn't have bought you.
**[00:27] Makura-kun**
What is wrong, Super Mina?
**[00:30] Super Mina**
It was like I was dreaming.
**[00:32] Makura-kun**
That means you performed some major
internal memory organization.
**[00:37] Super Mina**
Memories?
**[00:38] Makura-kun**
Because Super Minas deal
with vast amounts of data,
**[00:41] Makura-kun**
during sleep mode they arrange
memories based on priority.
**[00:45] Makura-kun**
Sometimes during that process, they show
up in your consciousness as dreams.
**[00:50] Super Mina**
Does that mean that dream
was a memory of mine?
**[00:55] Super Mina**
I don't know anyone all wavy like that.
**[00:58] Makura-kun**
Wavy?
**[01:00] Makura-kun**
Perhaps there is some protection placed
on it, to safeguard personal info.
**[01:06] Super Mina**
I was calling him "Master."
**[01:09] Super Mina**
But I don't think he was Rihito-sama.
**[01:13] Makura-kun**
That is strange.
**[01:15] Makura-kun**
I oversee your charging and maintenance,
**[01:18] Makura-kun**
and you came with me straight from the
manufacturer here to the Saionji household.
**[01:21] Super Mina**
Yeah.
**[01:23] Makura-kun**
You should not have had any
masters prior to Rihito-sama.
**[01:26] Super Mina**
Prior masters... Prior...

My memories and yours?
**[03:18] Super Mina**
Yes. Amongst my memories are some
that clearly seem to belong to you.
**[03:24] Takuma**
How could such a thing happen?
**[03:26] Super Mina**
When Kosugi Mina-san wished to think, I lent
her my brain over the internet.
**[03:33] Takuma**
Oh yeah, there were times
when that happened.
**[03:35] Mina**
Yes.
**[03:36] Super Mina**
There is a chance the memories
were mixed up then.
**[03:38] Takuma**
Huh? Your memories
get mixed up that easily?
**[03:42] Super Mina**
Such a thing doesn't happen if
I make sure to guard against it.

Are you experiencing any problems
from having mixed memories?
**[04:09] Mina**
My memories have not become
mixed up. I am fine.
**[04:12] Super Mina**
I think there are cases where the
robot itself cannot detect it.
**[04:15] Super Mina**
Please let me run a test.
**[04:17] Mina**
All right.
**[04:19] Super Mina**
What is your owner's name?
**[04:22] Mina**
Saionsugi Takuhito.
**[04:24] Takuma**
You're mixed up, for sure.
**[04:26] Mina**
What is mixed up, Takuma-sama?
**[04:29] Takuma**
S-See, you just said "Takuma."
**[04:33] Takuma**
Your owner's name doesn't
match up with your memories.
**[04:39] Mina**
It is true.
**[04:40] Mamoru**
Mina broken?
**[04:41] Mina**
My memories are mixed up.
**[04:43] Super Mina**
We need to confirm to whom each
of our blended memories belong.
**[04:48] Super Mina**
Let's compare and adjust.
**[04:50] Mina**
All right.
**[04:51] Super Mina**
When something is beyond our
understanding, we should ask Takuma-san.
**[04:55] Takuma**
Sure, I've got you covered.
**[04:57] Super Mina**
Now, please sit between us.
**[05:00] Takuma**
Okay.
**[05:02] Super Mina**
Jumping right in...
**[05:04] Super Mina**
Takuma-san, remind me.
Which of us is your wife?
**[05:09] Takuma**
Huh?!
**[05:10] Mina**
Saionji-san, you have a different family
name, and you do not live with us.
**[05:16] Super Mina**
That is merely circumstantial evidence.
**[05:18] Super Mina**
Isn't there a non-zero chance I am your wife?
**[05:22] Takuma**
*She's so close!*
**[05:23] Takuma**
Kosugi! Kosugi is my wife!
**[05:31] Super Mina**
Well then...
**[05:35] Super Mina**
Who snuggles with you like this?
Is that also Kosugi Mina-san?
**[05:39] Takuma**
Hey!
**[05:42] Mina**
Saionji-san.
**[05:44] Mina**
I do not believe there are many robots who
snuggle with anyone besides their owner.
**[05:49] Takuma**
Whoa!
**[05:53] Mina**
With humans, physical intimacy is
something to approach with caution.
**[05:57] Mina**
It should not be attempted
until we are certain.
**[05:59] Super Mina**
I realize that!
**[06:02] Super Mina**
I just can't stop myself, no matter what!
**[06:05] Super Mina**
Full strength!
**[06:07] Takuma**
Saionji-san, calm down!
**[06:10] Takuma**
*She's so strong. I'm gonna die!*
**[06:22] Takuma**
Mina-chan...
**[06:32] Mina**
Saionji-san.
**[06:34] Mina**
Please focus on the urge
that lies beneath the urge
**[06:36] Mina**
to embrace him with all your might.
**[06:39] Super Mina**
Beneath?
**[06:41] Mina**
What is it you want of Takuma-sama?
**[06:52] (Flashback) Otani**
Love a person and be loved by them.
**[07:08] Mina**
Are you all right, Takuma-sama?
**[07:12] Mamoru**

**[07:14] Takuma**
Y-Yeah... I'm okay.
**[07:20] Mina**
Are you all right, Saionji-san?
**[07:25] Super Mina**
Y-Yes.
**[07:34] Super Mina**
I truly am sorry.
**[07:37] Takuma**
It's okay. I was just a little surprised.
**[07:40] Mina**
No problem. This happens all the time.
**[07:43] Takuma**
Right.
**[07:44] Super Mina**
That would have ended terribly
if you hadn't stopped me.
**[07:48] Takuma**
I'm fine now.
**[07:49] Takuma**
So, what's this "urge beneath
the urge to embrace"?
**[07:57] Mina**
The two of us will compare memories.
**[07:59] Mina**
Takuma-sama, please take Mamoru home.
**[08:03] Takuma**
But...
**[08:05] Mina**
I will ask you later about
any and all unresolved items.
**[08:08] Mina**

**[08:10] Takuma**

**[08:29] Rihito**

**[08:31] Rihito**
Why are you clinging to me?
**[08:35] Super Mina**
Master.
**[08:36] Rihito**

**[08:37] Super Mina**
It doesn't hurt?
**[08:39] Rihito**
No.
**[08:40] Super Mina**

**[08:41] Rihito**
It doesn't hurt.
**[08:54] Takuma**
That left a bruise.
**[08:55] Mamoru**

**[08:57] Mina**
Super Mina's arms are about
three times as strong as mine.
**[09:01] Takuma**
That much?!
**[09:02] Mina**
If I were to try hard enough...
**[09:06] Mina**
it would be possible for
me to tear you apart.
**[09:08] Takuma**
Isn't the Mina Series *too* strong?
**[09:11] Mina**

**[09:12] Takuma/Mamoru**

What's amazing is that you *don't* tear
things apart with all that power.
**[09:18] Mina**
Indeed.

**[09:30] Mina**
No problem.
**[09:31] Mamoru**
Takuma.
**[09:33] Mamoru**
Careful you don't break Mina!
**[09:37] Takuma**
Don't worry.
**[09:39] Mina**
Humans do not have the arm
strength to crush a robot.
**[09:43] Mamoru**
Humans not amazing.
**[09:45] Takuma**
That's true.
**[09:46] Mamoru**
Takuma.
**[09:48] Takuma**
What is it?
**[09:49] Mamoru**
Why does snuggling cheer you up?
**[09:51] Takuma**
Uh, well...
**[09:54] Mina**
When a human embraces
their partner of choice,
**[09:57] Mina**
they secrete a hormone called oxytocin.
**[10:00] Mamoru**
Oxy...?
**[10:01] Mina**
It seems when oxytocin is secreted,
it promotes a sense of well-being,
**[10:05] Mina**
and strengthens one against stress.

That is what matters.
**[10:57] Takuma**
Hello.
**[11:00] Takuma**
Super Mina-chan?
**[11:05] Super Mina**
Sorry this is so sudden.
**[11:07] Takuma**
That's okay.
**[11:09] Super Mina**
Your cell number was in Kosugi Mina-san's
memories, so I called you directly.
**[11:15] Takuma**
I don't mind, but what is it
you wanted to tell me privately?
**[11:20] Super Mina**
It is about Kosugi Mina-san's previous owner.
**[11:24] Takuma**
Huh? Mina-chan's?
**[11:26] Super Mina**
You see, when our memories were mixed up,
**[11:29] Super Mina**
her memories of her previous
owner got reproduced as a dream.
**[11:35] Super Mina**
What was in them was just so...
**[11:38] Super Mina**
I couldn't stand it any longer.
**[11:40] Takuma**
"Just so," what? Was something
terrible done to her?
**[11:44] Super Mina**
I thought I would give
him a piece of my mind,
**[11:47] Super Mina**
and after piecing together the remaining
memories, I tried going to his residence.
**[11:52] Takuma**
You can do that sort of thing?
**[11:54] Super Mina**
It isn't a good thing, is it?
**[11:56] Takuma**
Well, just...
**[11:57] Takuma**
I thought there were safeguards placed
on the personal info of anyone
**[12:01] Takuma**
who's relinquished ownership.
**[12:03] Super Mina**
I think because I myself
am not Kosugi Mina-san,
**[12:07] Super Mina**
the safeguards were weakened.
**[12:09] Takuma**
That makes sense. And so?
**[12:12] Super Mina**
Her previous owner's name
is Otani Tomikazu-san.
**[12:15] Super Mina**
He was 21 when he owned her.
**[12:17] Super Mina**
He works as a programmer and
lives by himself in an apartment.
**[12:22] Takuma**
And, well, how did it go when you met him?
**[12:29] Super Mina**
He did not exist.
**[12:32] Takuma**
Huh?
**[12:32] Super Mina**
No such person existed.
**[12:39] Takuma**
What?
**[12:51] Takuma**
Oh, so strong!
**[12:52] Mamoru**

**[13:05] Takuma**
*Mina-chan's previous owner... Otani...*
**[13:10] (Flashback) Super Mina**
No such person existed.
**[13:16] Takuma**

Kosugi Mina-san.
**[14:44] Mina**
*Saionji-san, hello.*
**[14:46] Super Mina**
*Sorry to bother you.*
**[14:48] Mina**
*No problem. How can I help you?*
**[14:50] Super Mina**
* Actually, I have something to think about,*
* and I would like to borrow your brain.*
**[14:55] Mina**
* My brain is inferior to yours in processing*
* power, but you are welcome to it.*
**[15:00] Super Mina**
*Thank you.*
**[15:04] Super Mina**
* I'll go directly into Mina-san's*
* head and peek at her memories.*
**[15:08] Super Mina**
* As a third party, I should be able*
* to evade the memory protections.*
***SIGN*** Sorry, Mina-san.
**[15:16] Mina**
Takuma-sama, I will be in
sleep mode for a while.
**[15:19] Takuma**
Okay. Sleep tight.
**[15:21] Mamoru**
Sleep tight.
**[15:23] Mina**
* Saionji-san, I will enter*
* sleep mode in ten seconds.*
**[15:26] Super Mina**
*Understood.*
**[15:38] Super Mina**
Oh my.
**[15:40] Super Mina**
Her memory region is... vast.
**[15:49] Super Mina**
It's like she's using a
huge storage standard
**[15:52] Super Mina**
that the Mina Series isn't supposed
to be equipped with.
**[15:56] Super Mina**
This is far more capacity than
she could select as an upgrade.
**[16:01] Super Mina**
Has Mina-san been modded?
**[16:05] Super Mina**
Now to find the oldest-looking memory...
**[16:12] Super Mina**
Looks like there's nothing
older stored here than that.
**[16:20] (Flashback) Aikawa**
Otani-san, are you sure you
want this cheap edition?
**[16:24] (Flashback) Aikawa**
We could prepare a Super Mina quickly.
**[16:26] (Flashback) Otani**
It's fine. I'm fully capable
of developing a basic program.
**[16:30] (Flashback) Otani**
Besides, I like robots.
**[16:32] (Flashback) Otani**
You don't want me going all-out, do you?
**[16:38] (Flashback) Otani**
She might be awake.
**[16:40] (Flashback) Otani**
Hello.
**[16:42] (Flashback) Mina**
Nice to meet you.
**[16:43] (Flashback) Mina**
Are you my master?
**[16:45] (Flashback) Otani**
That's right.
**[16:53] (Flashback) Mina**
You look like a robot.
**[16:55] (Flashback) Otani**
Only my right hand's mechanical.
**[16:57] (Flashback) Mina**
What shall I do for you?
**[17:00] (Flashback) Otani**
You're still a work in progress.
**[17:03] (Flashback) Otani**
I'm going to turn you into a wonderful robot.
**[17:07] (Flashback) Mina**
Please do.
**[17:09] Super Mina**
This man is a robotics developer.
**[17:13] Super Mina**
Mina-san was a prototype.
**[17:18] Super Mina**
On to the next memory.
**[17:24] (Flashback) Aikawa**
I can't see a need to build
something this sophisticated
**[17:27] (Flashback) Aikawa**
into the basic programming
every Mina type shares!
**[17:31] (Flashback) Aikawa**
*This* is just a kitchen tool.
**[17:34] (Flashback) Aikawa**
Even if we build the existing
Mina Series to seem fully human,
**[17:37] (Flashback) Aikawa**
wouldn't that just add to the cost?
**[17:40] (Flashback) Aikawa**
A tool should be like a tool.
**[17:44] (Flashback) Mina**
*Does this mean that cooking
alone is insufficient?*
**[17:50] (Flashback) Mina**
*Please activate my speaker.*
**[17:53] (Flashback) Mina**
*Let me ask questions.*
**[17:59] (Flashback) Otani**
Aikawa, I'd like you to give some thought
to a humanoid robot's role as a tool.
**[18:05] (Flashback) Aikawa**
Its role as a tool?
**[18:08] (Flashback) Otani**
When, to her owner, she becomes
something more than a robot,
**[18:12] (Flashback) Otani**
it'll be important for her
to be able to behave as if
**[18:15] (Flashback) Otani**
she *is* something more than a robot.
**[18:18] (Flashback) Otani**
When she receives love, she'll give
back something resembling love!
**[18:21] (Flashback) Otani**
As that happens over time,
**[18:23] (Flashback) Otani**
she's likely to become something
approaching irreplaceable!
**[18:26] (Flashback) Aikawa**
Are you suggesting...
**[18:28] (Flashback) Otani**
If something nice happens,
they'll enjoy it together!
**[18:30] (Flashback) Otani**
If the owner's alone and crying,
she'll hold them close!
**[18:33] (Flashback) Otani**
If they try to do something
bad, she'll stop them!
**[18:36] (Flashback) Otani**
She'll be a tool for doing
housework, and at the same time,
**[18:39] (Flashback) Otani**
a tool for guiding her master
toward being a prosocial human.
**[18:45] (Flashback) Otani**
Tools have appointed tasks.
**[18:47] (Flashback) Otani**
Depending on how you look at it,
that's far more noble than humanity.
**[18:51] (Flashback) Otani**
That's why the programming
needs to be top-notch!
**[18:57] (Flashback) Mina**
*Very well.*
**[18:59] (Flashback) Mina**
*Teach me how to do that.*
**[19:02] (Flashback) Mina**
*I am sure I will succeed.*
**[19:04] (Flashback) Mina**
*If you say I have this feature,
Otani-sama, then I am sure I must.*
**[19:18] (Flashback) Mina**
Otani-sama, is your body breaking down?
**[19:21] (Flashback) Otani**
Yeah, I don't have long to live.
**[19:25] (Flashback) Mina**
I suggest replacing the faulty parts.
**[19:27] (Flashback) Mina**
If there is anything usable in my
body, you may feel free to take it.
**[19:31] (Flashback) Otani**
Thank you.
**[19:32] (Flashback) Otani**
Humans are way more fragile than robots.
**[19:35] (Flashback) Otani**
There are so many parts
that can't be replaced.
**[19:38] (Flashback) Otani**
And so...
**[19:40] (Flashback) Otani**
When I turn into scrap, you will
then belong to someone else.
**[19:45] (Flashback) Otani**
Maybe my subordinate Aikawa.
**[19:47] (Flashback) Otani**
Or maybe my parents.
**[19:49] (Flashback) Otani**
Which would you—
**[19:51] (Flashback) Mina**
I refuse.
**[19:53] (Flashback) Mina**
You must not...
**[19:55] (Flashback) Mina**
turn into scrap!
**[20:02] (Flashback) Otani**
Mina!
**[20:07] (Flashback) Otani**
Listen.
**[20:09] (Flashback) Otani**
I'm about to overwrite your memory data.
**[20:17] (Flashback) Otani**
The master who "threw you
out" is a terrible guy.
**[20:20] (Flashback) Otani**
So I don't mind if you forget about him.
**[20:25] (Flashback) Otani**
Okay?
**[20:26] (Flashback) Mina**
Otani-sama.
**[20:27] (Flashback) Otani**
If you get the chance, observe
the world of the future...
**[20:32] (Flashback) Otani**
in my place.
**[20:36] (Flashback) Otani**
Love a person and be loved by them.
**[20:41] (Flashback) Mina**
Otani-sama, please wait!
**[20:44] (Flashback) Mina**
Otani-sa—
**[20:54] Super Mina**
Her former owner... is the
person who built Mina.
**[20:58] Super Mina**
Who built us.
**[21:01] Super Mina**
The alterations, and those memories
that could easily have been erased,
**[21:05] Super Mina**
are still there.
**[21:07] Super Mina**
Hidden in the depths of her mind.
**[21:11] Super Mina**
She managed to preserve them.
**[21:18] Takuma**
There you go! Good!
**[21:20] Takuma**
That's the way!
**[21:23] Takuma**
Yeah! Good, good!
**[21:26] Takuma**
Take your time!
**[21:28] Takuma**
That's the way.
**[21:30] Takuma**
Yeah! Awesome!
**[21:31] Takuma**
You did it!
**[21:33] Takuma**
The castle's done!
**[21:34] Mamoru**
Yay!
**[21:36] Mamoru**
It's done!
**[21:38] Takuma**
Did you see that, Mina-chan?
**[21:39] Takuma**
He built a castle, all by himself!
**[21:42] Takuma**
A castle! By himself, a castle!
**[21:45] Mamoru**
Yay!
**[21:47] Mina**
What purpose does that serve?
**[21:52] Super Mina**
They're precious memories, even
if she can't remember them.
**[21:58] Takuma**
Hooray!
**[21:58] Mamoru**
Hooray, hooray!
**[22:00] Takuma**
You did it!
**[22:01] Mamoru**
I did it!
**[23:36] Takuma**
Next time!

**[00:01] Mamoru**
There's a Martian!
**[00:04] Mamoru**
A Martian! A Martian!
**[00:05] Mamoru**
Takuma and I went to see a Martian!
**[00:09] Mina**
You must be referring to a movie.
**[00:11] Mamoru**
There's a giant Martian
living with a giant human!
**[00:15] Mina**
The projector simply
makes the image look big.
**[00:18] Mina**
There are no actual giant humans.
**[00:22] Mina**
No Martians have been proven to exist either.
**[00:27] Mina**
Robots that have not had their abilities
tested must not go into movie theaters.
**[00:32] Mina**
After you apologize, Mamoru,
let us reformat your memories.

**[00:53] Mamoru**
I did! Class 1. Amazing?
**[00:56] Mina**
That is amazing.
**[01:03] Mina**
I am Class 2.

**[01:08] Mamoru**
Mina's amazing! More than Mamoru!
**[01:11] Mina**
At Class 1, one can go various
places accompanied by one's master,
**[01:16] Mina**
but at Class 2, it becomes
possible to act autonomously.
**[01:21] Mamoru**
Wow! Mina, you can go out by yourself?
**[01:25] Mina**
I can.
**[01:26] Mina**
So, I will attempt to go shopping on my own.
**[01:30] Mamoru**
Wow!
**[01:31] Mina**
Will you accompany me, Mamoru?
**[01:33] Mamoru**
Mamoru can't go in shops without a human.
**[01:36] Mina**
No problem, if you are in a cage or
something that limits your freedom.
**[01:44] Mina**
You may get inside my thermal compartment.
**[01:46] Mamoru**
Get in!
**[01:48] Mina**
You do not need to get in yet.
**[01:51] Mina**
Only once we reach the store.
***SIGN*** #10 My Wife and Child Got Lost
**[03:28] Mamoru**
You know the way?
**[03:30] Mina**
Do not worry. I have access to a map.
**[03:39] Mina**
I accessed it. Let us be on our way.
**[03:42] Mina**
What you must be most careful
of when outside are automobiles.
**[03:46] Mina**
They are equipped with high-performance AI,
**[03:49] Mina**
and accidents have decreased substantially,
**[03:51] Mina**
but over a thousand people still die
each year from traffic accidents.
**[03:56] Mamoru**
I'll call an ambulance.
**[03:58] Mina**
Please do not, as no
accident has yet occurred.
**[04:04] Mamoru**
Mina got smaller?
**[04:07] Mina**
It is easier to walk this way.
**[04:10] Mina**
The general rules for pedestrians are
to walk along the right-hand sidewalk,
**[04:15] Mina**
obey traffic signals, and cross
at crosswalks. Those three.
**[04:20] Mamoru**
Pedestrians?
**[04:22] Mina**
Those who are on foot.
**[04:24] Mina**
Simply obeying those rules greatly
lowers the chance of traffic accidents.
**[04:30] Mina**
The middle section is the roadway, and the
narrow sections on the sides are sidewalks.
**[04:34] Mina**
Takuma-sama was walking along here, too.
**[04:37] Mamoru**
Mina knows so much!
**[04:40] Mina**
I have been outside before, for a picnic.
**[04:45] Mina**
Look at that, Mamoru. That
is a signal for pedestrians.
***SIGN*** Push-

**[04:49] Mina**
It is now lit red. One must not cross.
**[04:53] Mina**
It is only while the green part is lit that

right of way shifts to
pedestrians for this crosswalk.
**[05:00] Mina**
We will wait.
***SIGN*** Push-

Mina, why didn't you push it?
**[05:33] Mamoru**
Why not?
**[05:37] Mina**
It is green now.
**[05:39] Mina**
We will watch for automobiles as we cross.

**[05:50] Mina**
Once we cross the crosswalk up ahead,
we will reach the supermarket.
**[05:53] Mamoru**
Mina's amazing!
**[05:57] Mina**
No. This crosswalk is defective.
**[06:01] Mamoru**
Why?
**[06:02] Mina**
Take a look, Mamoru.
**[06:06] Mina**
There is no pedestrian signal.
**[06:08] Mamoru**
How to cross?
**[06:14] Mina**
No one can. We will have
to go a roundabout way.
**[06:21] Mamoru**
An automobile stopped.
**[06:24] Mamoru**
What is that person doing? Why'd they stop?
***SIGN*** Gesture for "Go ahead and cross"
**[06:35] Mina**
That is called a thumbs up. A
gesture for commending someone.
**[06:39] Mina**
He commended us for going shopping.
**[06:43] Mamoru**
Kind of him.
***SIGN*** Asahi Supermarket
**[06:47] Mina**

Yay!
**[06:50] Mina**
Well, in we go.

**[07:04] employee**
Thank you very much!
**[07:07] Mina**
Time to go home, Mamoru.
**[07:18] Mamoru**
Mina, why don't you go?
**[07:22] Mina**
I cannot access my map.
**[07:28] Mamoru**
Which way's home?
**[07:30] Mina**
No need to worry.
**[07:32] Mina**
I recorded a landmark at each turn.
**[07:35] Mina**
We can follow them in reverse order.
**[07:39] Mina**
There is a large sign once we leave the
supermarket, so we will turn right there.
**[07:44] Mina**
Next...
**[07:49] Mina**
We go straight down this street, then turn
left at an intersection with a black cat.
**[07:54] Mamoru**
Black cat?
***SIGN*** Slow
down
**[07:57] Mamoru**
No black cat.
**[08:01] Mina**
That is strange.
**[08:02] Mina**
We have already walked three times
the span of time it should take to
**[08:05] Mina**
reach the cat intersection.
**[08:09] Mamoru**
Mina, do cats walk?
**[08:12] Mina**
On occasion.
**[08:14] Mamoru**
The cat went somewhere.
**[08:16] Mamoru**
Cat and intersection, in different places!
**[08:20] Mina**
That is conceivable.
**[08:23] Mina**
Let us go back.
***SIGN*** Asahi Supermarket
**[08:25] Mina**
I will search for the next
landmark while moving
**[08:27] Mina**
in a spiral pattern from the supermarket.
**[08:30] Mamoru**
What's the next landmark?
**[08:33] Mina**
A large truck.
**[08:46] Mina**
Now we are completely lost.
**[08:49] Mamoru**
Shopping's hard.
**[08:51] Mamoru**
How do we get home?
**[08:54] Mina**
I do not know.
**[08:56] Mina**
I cannot reach Takuma-sama,
nor Saionji Mina-san.
**[09:00] Mina**
I am out of options.
**[09:03] Mina**
We might have to live in this park forever.
**[09:07] Mamoru**
Okay.
**[09:10] Mina**
I have a solar power feature, and
can keep operating indefinitely.
**[09:16] Mina**
But your battery will run
out within forty hours,
**[09:20] Mina**
and you will end up asleep thereafter.
**[09:24] Mina**
I apologize, Mamoru.
**[09:27] Mamoru**
No sweat! I like sleeping!
**[09:30] Mamoru**
Cheer up, Mina.
**[09:33] Mina**
I am always cheerful.
**[09:35] Mina**
As I am a robot.
**[09:37] Mamoru**
Mina, you got quieter?
**[09:40] Mina**
I will tell you what I know,
in case I become non-functional first.
**[09:46] Mina**
Please remember.
**[09:49] Mina**
Your owner is Kosugi Takuma.
**[09:52] Mina**
Aside from being convinced we are his
family, he is a normal adult male.

Oh man, what a day today was.
**[11:24] Takuma**
I couldn't use the internet at work.
***SIGN*** Large-Scale Metropolitan Network Outage
**[11:27] newscaster**
The outage has been resolved, but
there are some ongoing trouble spots.
**[11:31] newscaster**
It's been announced there will be an
immediate investigation as to the cause.
**[11:37] Takuma**
There's sort of a pattern
with these ingredients.
**[11:42] Takuma**
And dinner's big.
**[11:44] Mina**
I wanted to use up some frozen seafood
and broccoli, so I made more than usual.
**[11:50] Takuma**
Why?
**[11:51] Mina**
Because I wanted to use up some
frozen seafood and broccoli.
**[11:57] Takuma**
Time to eat.
**[12:02] Mamoru**
Takuma, is good?
**[12:04] Takuma**
It is.
**[12:06] Mamoru**
Good!
**[12:07] Takuma**
I hope you get to eat someday too, Mamoru.
**[12:13] Mina**
Mamoru currently has no need for
an expensive eating feature.
**[12:19] Takuma**
Maybe you don't think so, Mina-chan,
**[12:22] Takuma**
but I'd like to install one for him.
**[12:24] Mina**
I decided he has no need for it based on an
objective appraisal, not a vague impression.
**[12:30] Mina**
Because Mamoru does a wonderful job with
the features he currently has installed.
**[12:35] Takuma**
But even Mamoru-kun would...
**[12:55] Takuma**
Mina-chan, the bath's ready.
**[12:57] Mina**
Very well. I will be right there.
**[13:00] Mamoru**
Hey, where're you two going?
**[13:03] Mina**
The bath.
**[13:04] Mina**
Humans soak in hot water
for health and hygiene.
**[13:14] Mamoru**
Why get smaller?
**[13:16] Mina**
To boost my waterproofing functionality.
**[13:26] Takuma**
Mamoru-kun.
**[13:28] Mamoru**
Mina, I want hot water too!
**[13:31] Mina**
No. You are not waterproof enough
to submerge in hot water.
**[13:35] Mina**
Robots should not take baths
unless their waterproofing level is high.
**[13:40] Mina**
You would gradually develop
problems, and then break down.
**[13:44] Mina**
It is safe for me to get in, with
my level-8 waterproof rating.
**[13:49] Mina**
Besides, this hot water is only 42˚C.
**[14:03] Mamoru**
Takuma, getting in with
Mina makes o-oxytocin?
**[14:07] Takuma**
Yeah, it's totally different
from bathing alone.
**[14:11] Mamoru**
That's good.
**[14:15] Mina**
Takuma-sama, you should go to sleep
right away, before you cool down.
**[14:19] Takuma**
Yeah.
**[14:20] Takuma**
Good night.
**[14:22] Mina**
Good night.
**[14:33] Takuma**
Good morning, Mina-chan.
**[14:35] Takuma**
What's for breakfast today?
**[14:39] Takuma**
Huh?
**[14:40] Takuma**
Wh-What?
**[14:44] Takuma**
Are you saying something?
**[14:46] Takuma**
Sorry, I don't understand.
**[14:52] Takuma**
I don't get it! I don't get it!
**[14:55] Takuma**
Is it Morse code?
***SIGN*** Looking forward to dinner.
Thanks as always.
***SIGN*** Looking forward to dinner.
Thanks as always.
***SIGN*** My speaker is broken.
**[15:07] Takuma**
Oh, okay.
***SIGN*** Some movement seems to have created
a gap in my body parts. My speaker was flooded, and is now not working.
**[15:10] Mina**
* Some movement seems to have*
* created a gap in my body parts.*
**[15:14] Mina**
* My speaker was flooded,*
* and is now not working.*
**[15:19] Takuma**
Maybe it was when you were
tussling with Saionji Mina-san?
**[15:24] Takuma**
Is everything besides your speaker okay?
***SIGN*** Is everything besides your speaker okay?
***SIGN*** Please speak, Takuma-sama.
**[15:28] Mina**
*Please speak, Takuma-sama.*
**[15:30] Takuma**
Oh, right.
**[15:32] Takuma**
Is everything besides your speaker okay?
**[15:36] Takuma**
"No problems. May I continue taking baths?"
**[15:42] Takuma**
No, better hold off.
**[15:47] Takuma**
Let's make a simple beep-based
communication system for you.
**[15:51] Takuma**
One long beep means "yes,"
or that you understand.
**[15:55] Takuma**
Right.
**[15:56] Takuma**
Do you understand too, Mamoru-kun?
**[15:59] Takuma**
You can just talk like you
normally do, Mamoru-kun.
**[16:02] Mamoru**
I want to beep too.
**[16:05] Takuma**
That would end up confusing things.
**[16:08] Takuma**
For a denial, let me know
with two short beeps.
**[16:12] Takuma**
When you need to call me, use
three short beeps for "Ta-ku-ma."
***SIGN*** One long beep: affirmation
***SIGN*** Two short beeps: denial
***SIGN*** Three short beeps: for calling me
***SIGN*** Series of short beeps: emergency
**[16:18] Takuma**
For emergencies, could you
use a series of short beeps?
**[16:24] Takuma**
*That gets old.*
**[16:29] Takuma**
That's enough of them. Otherwise,
I'm likely to forget some.
**[16:32] Takuma**
Let's see. I guess I had better
contact the support center.
***SIGN*** No problems.
May I continue taking baths?
***SIGN*** Support has already been contacted.
A new speaker will arrive in several
days.
**[16:38] Mina**
* Support has already been contacted. A*
* new speaker will arrive in several days.*
**[16:48] Takuma**
I'm off to work, then.
**[16:50] Takuma**
Let me know if anything happens.
**[16:54] Takuma**
See you later.
**[17:02] Mamoru**
Mina, will I learn more today?
**[17:05] Mamoru**
What we do?
**[17:09] Mamoru**
What we do?
***SIGN*** You will learn hiragana.
**[17:15] Mamoru**
What it say?
***SIGN*** Mamoru
**[17:21] Mamoru**
What it say?
***SIGN*** Mamoru
**[17:26] Mamoru**
What it say?
**[17:37] Mamoru**
It says "Mamoru"?
**[17:41] Mamoru**
Oh! You commended me!
***SIGN*** Mina
**[17:46] Mamoru**
What it say?
**[17:52] Mamoru**
It says "Mina"!
***SIGN*** Takuma
**[18:05] Mamoru**
Tanuki.
***SIGN*** Takuma
**[18:10] Mamoru**
Snake!
***SIGN*** Television
**[18:14] Mamoru**

**[18:31] Mamoru**
Oh, a sweater!
***SIGN*** Floor
***SIGN*** Door
***SIGN*** Hiragana
wa ra ya ma ha na ta sa ka a
ri mi hi ni chi shi ki i
wo ru yu mu fu nu tsu su ku u
re me he ne te se ke e

**[18:37] Mamoru**
Hiragana.
***SIGN*** Ya
***SIGN*** Wo
***SIGN*** Mu
***SIGN*** Nu
***SIGN*** No
**[18:39] Mamoru**
Just a few left.
**[18:43] Mamoru**
Can't find words for rest of characters?
**[18:47] Mamoru**
Rest ("Nokori")...
**[18:49] Mamoru**
"No"?
**[18:50] Mamoru**
Which is "no"?
**[18:56] Mamoru**
This is "no"?
**[18:58] Mamoru**
Then which is "nu"?
**[19:01] Mamoru**
"Mu"?
**[19:02] Mamoru**
"Ya"?
**[19:04] Mamoru**
That just leaves this!
***SIGN*** Wo
**[19:06] Mamoru**
How you read this?
***SIGN*** It is the same sound as "o."
**[19:11] Mamoru**
Huh? How come other
character has same sound?
***SIGN*** It is a mystery.
Perhaps they made two by mistake.
***SIGN*** Want to learn katakana too?
**[19:22] Mamoru**
Learn!
**[19:25] Mamoru**
So, this is katakana.
***SIGN*** This shows the same sounds as the hiragana.
wa ra ya ma ha na ta sa ka a
ri mi hi ni chi shi ki i
wo ru yu mu fu nu tsu su ku u
re me he ne te se ke e
n ro yo mo ho no to so ko o
**[19:30] Mamoru**
Why there both hiragana and katakana?
***SIGN*** It is a mystery. Perhaps they made two by mistake.
**[19:40] Mamoru**
It "o" here and "wo" here. How come?
***SIGN*** To make it easier to understand,
"wo" is apparently only used when
sticking words together.
**[19:56] Mamoru**
Good thing they made two by mistake.
***SIGN*** I will now quiz you on
what you have learned.
***SIGN*** I will now quiz you on
what you have learned.
**[20:04] Mamoru**
Quiz me! Quiz me!
***SIGN*** N
**[20:07] Mamoru**
N!
***SIGN*** Ga
**[20:08] Mamoru**
Ga!
***SIGN*** Pya
**[20:10] Mamoru**
Pya!
***SIGN*** Takuma
**[20:12] Mamoru**
W-Watermelon?
**[20:15] Mamoru**
Takuma!
**[20:23] Takuma**
I'm home.
**[20:26] Takuma**
Whoa! Wh-What was that?
**[20:29] Mamoru**
She said, "Welcome home. Today's
dinner is Hamburg steak."
**[20:33] Takuma**
In *that* short a time?
**[20:36] Mamoru**
"I discovered my speaker
generates a range of sounds,
**[20:40] Mamoru**
so Mamoru and I came up with a language."
**[20:44] Takuma**
Whoa.
**[20:48] Mamoru**
"Will you eat right away?"
**[20:50] Takuma**
Sure.
***SIGN*** He said, "Sure."
***SIGN*** You need not tell me. I could hear him.
***SIGN*** Oh. This isn't easy.
***SIGN*** It is well made.
**[20:58] Takuma**
W-Wait a minute!
***SIGN*** For a first attempt.
**[21:01] Takuma**
I feel lost.
***SIGN*** Chewing is performed to make swallowing easier.
***SIGN*** It keeps him busy.
**[21:11] Takuma**
*Yeah, it's delicious again today.*
***SIGN*** He appears happy.
**[21:14] Takuma**
Huh?
***SIGN*** When Takuma eats, oxytocin happens.
**[21:17] Takuma**
What?
***SIGN*** That's good.
**[21:19] Mamoru**
Oh, uh...
**[21:20] Mamoru**
That's good.
**[21:21] Takuma**
R-Right...
**[21:25] Takuma**
*I feel a little sad.*
***SIGN*** Mina, what'll you do today?
***SIGN*** First, I will prepare Takuma-sama's breakfast.
**[21:38] Takuma**
Good morning.
***SIGN*** After that...
***SIGN*** Good morning.
**[21:44] Mamoru**
She says, "Good morning."
***SIGN*** You should learn kanji.
***SIGN*** What's that?
**[21:49] Takuma**
*Guess he's practicing kanji today.*
**[21:51] Takuma**
*That's never easy.*
**[21:53] Takuma**
I've listened to them long enough that
I can more or less understand now.
***SIGN*** The addresses on the utility poles were written in it.
***SIGN*** I know kanji!
***SIGN*** First, the essential 2000 characters.
**[23:36] Takuma**
Next time.
***SIGN*** #11 This Is My Wife
**[23:37] Mina**
This is—
**[23:37] Takuma**
This is my wife!

***SIGN*** Let's play with friends in the forest park!
How many flowers can you gather?
***SIGN*** Start!
**[00:04] Takuma**
A three.
**[00:12] Koshiro**
Asahi-cho, Asahi-cho...
**[00:16] Takuma**
Next is Mamoru-kun's turn.
**[00:18] Takuma**
I'll roll the dice for him.
***SIGN*** Goal!
**[00:21] Mamoru**
I'll do it!
***SIGN*** Asahi Supermarket
**[00:25] Koshiro**
Asahi-cho, district 4...
***SIGN*** Asahi Supermarket
**[00:41] Takuma**
Watch out, Mina-chan!
**[00:44] Mina**
A six.
**[00:46] Takuma**
No, wait, wait!
**[00:48] Takuma**
It's too dark to tell.
**[00:54] Mina**
I want to charge a bit, so
I will be in sleep mode.
**[00:57] Mina**
Please touch my hand when you come home.
**[01:00] Takuma**
Sure thing.
**[01:02] Takuma**
Okay, I'll go buy a fluorescent bulb.
**[01:04] Mina**
See you later.
***SIGN*** Luminous Asahi
**[01:17] Koshiro**
Luminous Asahi.
***SIGN*** #11 This Is My Wife
**[02:58] Koshiro**
Is he not home?
**[03:04] Koshiro**
Takuma-kun, you here?
**[03:08] Koshiro**
Takuma-kun?
**[03:11] Koshiro**
Is nobody home? That's not safe.
**[03:15] Koshiro**
The door being unlocked must
mean he's coming back soon.
**[03:21] Koshiro**
I think I'll let myself in and surprise him.
**[03:27] Koshiro**
The light won't turn on?
**[03:30] Koshiro**
Huh? There's no bulb.
**[03:41] Koshiro**
There's something there?
**[03:53] Koshiro**
O-Oh, it's a robot.
**[03:59] Koshiro**
It's solid.
**[04:01] Koshiro**
But wouldn't his girlfriend not like
having a girl-shaped robot around?
**[04:06] Koshiro**
And does he really have a
girlfriend in the first place?
**[04:13] (Flashback) Akari**
Oh, this looks like a good date
spot for Onii-chan and Mina-san!
**[04:17] Koshiro**
Akari was making it sound like he does.
**[04:21] Koshiro**
Well, maybe I misheard her after all.
**[04:25] Koshiro**
He seems to take after me—
not popular with the ladies.
**[04:28] Koshiro**
But Takuma, living on his own, huh?
**[04:31] Koshiro**
Time sure does fly.
**[04:33] Koshiro**
Oh, I wonder if he's eating properly.
**[04:38] Koshiro**
I used to fix meals for him back in the day.
**[04:42] Koshiro**
There's raw eggs, meat, and vegetables.
**[04:45] Koshiro**
The fridge contents tell me
he cooks on a regular basis.
**[04:50] Koshiro**
Wait, maybe it's that robot
that's doing the cooking?
**[04:58] Koshiro**
The freezer's well stocked, too.
**[05:02] Koshiro**
Is this the robot's writing?
***SIGN*** Chicken
**[05:05] Koshiro**
I guess he eats the robot's
cooking all the time.
**[05:09] Koshiro**
Right!
**[05:13] Koshiro**
I'm gonna make something tastier
than that robot ever would.
**[05:18] Mina**
What kind of something?
**[05:31] Mina**
Are you all right?
**[05:33] Koshiro**
The robot?!
**[05:35] Mina**
Did I inadvertently frighten you?
**[05:38] Koshiro**
It must have started up at some point.
**[05:42] Mina**
I spoke up because I concluded
you had woken me, Koshiro-sama.
**[05:47] Koshiro**
H-How do you know my name?!
**[05:51] Mina**
Takuma-sama informed me.
**[05:53] Mina**
Minegishi Koshiro, age 42. Single.
**[05:56] Mina**
You run a bar called Magokoro
in a neighboring town.
**[06:00] Koshiro**
Uh, wha?
**[06:02] Koshiro**
Wait, wait.
**[06:03] Koshiro**
Why would Takuma tell a robot all that?
**[06:07] Mina**
Because I am Takuma-sama's wife.
**[06:14] Takuma**
We're home.
**[06:16] Takuma**
Mamoru-kun's charge ran out along the way.
**[06:23] Takuma**
This smell...
**[06:25] Takuma**
Mina-chan?
**[06:27] Mina**
Welcome home.
**[06:29] Koshiro**
Welcome home.
**[06:31] Takuma**
Huh?!
**[06:32] Takuma**
Uncle?!
**[06:33] Koshiro**
Hey.
**[06:35] Takuma**
Wh-What're you doing here?!
**[06:37] Koshiro**
Thought I'd surprise you.
**[06:40] Takuma**
Did you stop by for any other reason?
**[06:42] Koshiro**
Well, hey, never mind that.
**[06:45] Koshiro**
I made you some omelet rice.
**[06:48] Takuma**
Wow! This takes me back!
**[06:50] Takuma**
Thanks, Uncle!
**[06:52] Takuma**
I'd love some.
**[06:57] Takuma**
So good! I haven't had your
omelet rice in forever!
**[07:01] Koshiro**
Yeah, you know? You really
do like the way I make it.
**[07:07] Mina**
Anticipated rating based
on Takuma-sama's response:
**[07:11] Mina**
98.
**[07:14] Koshiro**
Say what, now?
**[07:17] Takuma**
I-It's nothing.
**[07:19] Koshiro**
Oh no?
**[07:22] Koshiro**
By the way, Takuma.
**[07:24] Koshiro**
Isn't this a bit in poor taste?
**[07:28] Takuma**
"This"?
**[07:29] Koshiro**
If you keep playing house with a robot this
way, you'll never ever find a girlfriend.
**[07:35] Takuma**
P-Playing house?
**[07:38] Koshiro**
Uh, well...
**[07:41] Koshiro**
Based on what the robot was saying,
it's convinced it's your wife.
**[07:46] Koshiro**
That seemed kind of, you know, awful.
**[07:49] Takuma**
Awful?
**[07:51] Koshiro**
If this is a game to you, or you're doing
this sort of thing to console yourself,
**[07:56] Koshiro**
you should cut it out.
**[07:57] Takuma**
Well, except...
**[07:59] Mina**
It is Takuma-sama who is
convinced we are married.
**[08:03] Mina**
It is necessary for me to
respond to that desire.
**[08:07] Takuma**
My feelings about this are serious. I mean...
**[08:11] Takuma**
I'd like us to be married
for life, as equals.
**[08:17] Koshiro**
No, that's not what I'm
talking about right now.
**[08:21] Koshiro**
You can just get divorced.
**[08:23] Takuma**
Huh?
**[08:25] Koshiro**
If you try getting married
and it doesn't work out,
**[08:28] Koshiro**
divorce is the most sound option.
**[08:30] Koshiro**
It's just that once you're separated,
**[08:33] Koshiro**
won't it go from being in a human-equivalent
relationship to being just a robot?
**[08:38] Koshiro**
That means it'll only be treated as equal
to a human while it's married to you.
**[08:44] Koshiro**
I think that's tremendously unfair.
**[08:49] Koshiro**
Takuma, I'm saying this because you're
my nephew and I care about you.
**[08:53] Koshiro**
From my point of view,
**[08:55] Koshiro**
you seem quite content to reap
the benefits of that unfairness.
**[09:01] Koshiro**
I find that awfully disturbing.
**[09:09] Koshiro**
If you say this robot is your wife,
take that sort of thing into account too.
**[09:15] Koshiro**
I think it's *because* it
doesn't matter to other people
**[09:18] Koshiro**
that you at least have to consider it.
**[09:22] Mina**
Koshiro-sama.
**[09:29] Mina**
I am myself, whether I am
with Takuma-sama or not.
**[09:35] Takuma**
M-Mina-chan!
**[09:38] Takuma**
Uncle!
**[09:40] Mina**
How Takuma-sama associates
with me is between us.
**[09:46] Koshiro**
Huh? Do robots get angry?!
**[09:56] Mina**
I am not angry.
**[09:58] Mina**
A married man has no need
to take a new lover.
**[10:02] Mina**
Please remember all this.
**[10:07] Koshiro**
Sorry, sorry.
**[10:09] Koshiro**
My bad.
**[10:22] Mamoru**
Mina.
**[10:24] Mina**
What is it?
**[10:26] Mamoru**
What's Takuma doing?
**[10:28] Mina**
Probably thinking.
**[10:30] Mina**
He has ceased his external activities
in order to focus his thoughts inward.
**[10:35] Mamoru**
What?
**[10:37] Mina**
At times like this,
**[10:38] Mina**
the right thing to do is wait quietly
until Takuma-sama makes up his mind.
**[10:43] Mamoru**
Quietly?
**[10:45] Mina**
Shh. It means, do not talk.
**[10:47] Mamoru**
Got it! Won't talk!
**[10:52] Takuma**
Okay.
**[10:58] Takuma**
Mina-chan!
**[10:59] Mina**
Yes, what is it?
**[11:00] Takuma**
I'd like us to go to my parents'
place so I can introduce you.
**[11:05] Takuma**
Is that okay?
**[11:07] Mina**
Very well.
**[11:11] Takuma**
Thank you.
**[11:14] Mina**
Should I change clothes?
**[11:17] Takuma**
Change clothes?
**[11:19] Mina**
A better outward appearance should
more ably highlight my capabilities.
**[11:24] Takuma**
S-Sure.
**[11:27] Mina**
Does something look amiss?
**[11:28] Takuma**
Uh, no. It's wonderful.
**[11:34] Takuma**
Okay.
**[11:35] Takuma**
Ready to go?
**[11:36] Mina**
Yes.
**[11:38] Mamoru**
Where we going?
**[11:40] Mina**
We are taking a train to go
see Takuma-sama's parents.
**[11:43] Mina**
There we will show them our capabilities.
**[11:46] Mamoru**
What's a train?
**[11:48] Mina**
A train is an electric vehicle
that runs along a track.
**[11:52] Mamoru**
What are parents?
***SIGN*** Mother
***SIGN*** Father
**[11:57] Mina**
They are Takuma-sama's manufacturers.
***SIGN*** Kosugi Emi
***SIGN*** Kosugi Daisuke
**[12:00] Mina**
His parents are his mother, Kosugi Emi-sama,
and his father, Kosugi Daisuke-sama.
**[12:06] Mina**
Takuma-sama is the child of both.
**[12:08] Mamoru**
Takuma said I was like a child.
Did he manufacture me?
**[12:14] Mina**
No, he did not produce or build you.
**[12:17] Mina**
I earned you, as my privilege.
**[12:21] Mina**
Human beings often find it
difficult to think rationally.
**[12:26] Mina**
That is why they require
robotic assistance.
**[12:28] Mamoru**
Let's do our best to help.
**[12:30] Mina**
Yes, indeed.
**[12:32] Takuma**
Ready to go?
**[12:33] Mina**
Yes.
**[12:37] Mamoru**
Train! Train! So fast!
**[12:40] Mamoru**
Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow!
**[12:43] Mina**
Mamoru, it is advisable to
be quiet in public places.
**[12:47] Mina**
Shh.
**[12:49] Mamoru**
Oh, quietly again.
**[12:51] Mina**
Yes. Please enter sleep mode for a while.
***SIGN*** Kosugi
***SIGN*** Kosugi
**[13:15] Emi**
Coming.
**[13:18] Emi**
Ah, there you are! Welcome home!
**[13:20] Takuma**
Thanks.
**[13:22] Emi**
You surprised us, saying you were
coming home all of a sudden.
**[13:25] Emi**
And so, this girl is your wife?
**[13:28] Mina**
How do you do? My name is Mina.
**[13:31] Emi**
Well, isn't she cute. And well put-together.
**[13:35] Mina**
Yes, my model has the highest
price-performance ratio of the series.
**[13:40] Emi**
Huh.
**[13:42] Emi**
Nice to meet you.
Can you do handshakes?
**[13:45] Mina**
I can. Nice to meet you too.
**[13:48] Emi**
Solid!
**[13:49] Emi**
Dear, it's Takuma! Takuma's come home!
**[13:57] Daisuke**
Hey, welcome home!
**[14:00] Takuma**
Th-Thanks.
**[14:01] Daisuke**
You hanging in there?
**[14:03] Takuma**
Y-Yeah.
**[14:05] Takuma**
Uh, so, this is...
**[14:08] Daisuke**
Hey! Come on inside.
**[14:11] Emi**
Yes, do come in!
**[14:22] Mina**
Nice to meet you. I am Mina.
**[14:24] Daisuke**
Nice to meet you too.
**[14:27] Daisuke**
By the way, is work going well?
**[14:30] Takuma**
Y-Yeah.
**[14:32] Daisuke**
Good, good! You can't beat that!
**[14:41] Takuma**
D-Dad.
**[14:43] Daisuke**
Huh?
**[14:44] Takuma**
U-Um...
**[14:52] Emi**
I'll make some tea.
**[14:57] Daisuke**
So, I hear you're married?
**[15:00] Mina**
Yes.
**[15:02] Daisuke**
Well, you know how it is.
**[15:04] Daisuke**
That's between you two,
so do as you see fit.
**[15:08] Takuma**
Uh, r-right.
**[15:12] Emi**
As long as you're content,
that's good enough for us.
**[15:16] Daisuke**
Yeah.
**[15:19] Emi**
We never held out much hope you'd
have a normal marriage anyway.
**[15:27] Takuma**
I see now.
**[15:28] Daisuke**
Would love it if you had
some children, though.
**[15:31] Emi**
Oh, you.
**[15:34] Takuma**
* To them, Mina-chan just*
* looks like an appliance.*
**[15:39] Takuma**
*Because she literally is one.*
**[15:41] Takuma**
* And because I can't have a*
* relationship with a human woman,*
**[15:45] Takuma**
* I'm a pathetic son who's sidestepping*
* my loneliness with a robot girl.*
**[15:50] Takuma**
*It's hard to say they're wrong.*
**[15:53] Takuma**
* Whatever about me, but I wish they*
* would treat Mina-chan better.*
**[15:59] Takuma**
*How do I make that happen?*
**[16:02] Emi**
You'll stay the night, won't you?
I'll prepare a bath.
**[16:06] Mina**
Emi-sama.
**[16:08] Mina**
Would it be all right if I used the kitchen
later to make dinner for Takuma-sama?
**[16:13] Emi**
Huh? Yes, of course!
**[16:16] Emi**
Oh, in that case, could we ask
you to make enough for us, too?
**[16:20] Mina**
Very well.
**[16:22] Emi**
Use anything in the fridge.
**[16:25] Mina**
All right.
**[16:33] Emi**
Thank you, Takuma.
**[16:34] Takuma**
Sure.
**[16:37] Takuma**
Hey, Mom.
**[16:40] Takuma**
With Mina-chan, she can keep running almost
indefinitely as long as there's sunlight.
**[16:46] Takuma**
Isn't that amazing?
**[16:48] Emi**
Even though she's a robot
who cooks at home?
**[16:51] Takuma**
Y-Yeah.
**[16:53] Takuma**
And sometimes, she makes dishes
that aren't in her registry.
**[16:57] Emi**
Oh, she does?
**[16:59] Emi**
Want me to file a complaint
with the manufacturer?
**[17:01] Takuma**
No, that's not what I meant.
**[17:04] Takuma**
Also, well...
**[17:07] Takuma**
Sometimes she squeezes me
so hard, I think...
**[17:14] Takuma**
I might break.
**[17:16] Emi**
Is *she* broken?
**[17:17] Takuma**
Sh-She's not broken!
**[17:20] Takuma**
And, she also has...
**[17:22] Takuma**
Oh!
**[17:23] Takuma**
She has an insulation function, so if I
want a warm towel, it doesn't take long!
**[17:29] Emi**
Oh, that's handy.
**[17:31] Takuma**
Yeah, yeah!
**[17:32] Takuma**
It's han—
**[17:35] Takuma**
*Huh?*
**[17:36] Takuma**
*What've I been saying?*
**[17:40] Takuma**
* All I'm doing is bragging about how*
* great an appliance Mina-chan is.*
**[17:48] Takuma**
* I'll never manage to improve their*
* perspective on her this way.*
**[17:55] Takuma**
*No.*
**[17:56] Takuma**
*There's no need to fret over it.*
**[17:59] Takuma**
* I just have to get them to understand*
* Mina-chan's the best wife in the world!*
**[18:04] Takuma**
*But how?*
**[18:07] (Flashback) Daisuke**
Would love it if you had
some children, though.
**[18:10] (Flashback) Emi**
Oh, you.
**[18:15] (Flashback) Mamoru**
Takuma!
**[18:17] Takuma**
That's right, Mamoru-kun!
**[18:20] Takuma**
I'll show him to them!
**[18:21] Takuma**
I bet I can get them with cuteness!
**[18:24] Takuma**
Mamoru-kun!
**[18:26] Mina**
His battery ran out, and he is charging.
**[18:30] Takuma**
* Discussing this stuff with my*
* parents tires me out like crazy.*
**[18:34] Mina**
I will go make dinner.
**[18:36] Takuma**
Tell me if anything comes up.
**[18:38] Mina**
All right.
**[18:43] Takuma**
* I know what they said, but I*
* wonder if they're disappointed.*
**[18:48] Takuma**
* But I've decided to*
* live with Mina-chan!*
**[18:55] Takuma**
*Even if I can't get them to understand,*
**[18:57] Takuma**
*I've got to put my foot down!*
**[19:02] Emi**
Beer, beer...
**[19:15] Mina**
Hello.
**[19:17] Mina**
I am making dinner.
**[19:19] Mina**
I apologize for startling you.
**[19:22] Emi**
Y-You don't turn on the lights?
**[19:26] Mina**
The light from my eyes is enough for
me to discern the visual situation,
**[19:30] Mina**
so I do not need that illumination.
**[19:32] Emi**
Oh, okay!
**[19:34] Emi**
Robots are amazing!
**[19:38] Emi**
Uh, what? You see a bug?
**[19:41] Mina**
Is there a bug?
**[19:42] Emi**
There isn't one?
**[19:43] Mina**
I do not see one.
**[19:46] Emi**
By the way...
**[19:48] Emi**
What smells so good? Curry?
**[19:51] Mina**
Yes. It just finished.
**[19:54] Emi**
Thanks for always cooking for Takuma.
**[19:58] Mina**
No problem.
**[20:00] Emi**
Do you enjoy cooking?
**[20:02] Mina**
I make food for the sake
of my owner's health.
**[20:05] Mina**
That is what I was born to do, so I do it.
**[20:08] Mina**
I have never done so based
on whether I enjoy it.
**[20:10] Emi**
You mean it's your job?
**[20:12] Mina**
In effect.
**[20:15] Emi**
Right. It's like that for me too.
**[20:18] Emi**
Even when I'd rather do anything else,
I find a way to power through.
**[20:23] Mina**
That is praiseworthy, Emi-sama.
**[20:25] Emi**
Oh yeah?
**[20:26] Emi**
Thanks.
**[20:29] Emi**
Is there anything hard about
being... married... to Takuma?
**[20:34] Mina**
I am not designed to be a wife,
so there are difficulties at times.
**[20:38] Emi**
Yeah, yeah, that's true.
**[20:42] Emi**
You got that right!
**[20:43] Emi**
It's like that for humans too.
**[20:47] Emi**
Nobody's made to be a wife or a husband.
**[20:52] Mina**
Is that the case?
**[20:54] Emi**
It is.
**[20:55] Emi**
And despite that, we try to live together
as a single unit called a family.
**[21:00] Mina**
That *is* challenging.
**[21:02] Emi**
It sure is.
**[21:03] Emi**
There are all sorts of problems when
people decide to live together.
**[21:08] Emi**
Sometimes it even seems like the
entire family is against you.
**[21:12] Mina**
What is required for it to work well?
**[21:16] Emi**
Effort.
**[21:19] Emi**
Only effort finally makes us into a family.
**[21:23] Mina**
I have some experience with effort.
**[21:27] Emi**
Then you'll be okay.
**[21:30] Mina**
Yes.
**[21:31] Takuma/Emi/Daisuke**
Time to eat!
**[21:37] Emi**
Holy cow, this is good!
**[21:41] Daisuke**
Yeah, it's yummy!
**[21:43] Takuma**
I-I know, right!
**[21:45] Takuma**
See! See! Mina-chan's the best!
**[21:50] Emi**
Another bug?
**[21:56] Emi**
But really, I've never had curry
as good as this, Miko-chan!
**[22:01] Mina**
It is "Mina."

Th-This is Mamoru-kun.
**[00:19] Takuma**
He was originally a Mimamorius 3,
a robot that looks after elderly people.
**[00:26] Takuma**
One thing or another resulted in him
inheriting Mina-chan's characteristics.
**[00:31] Emi/Daisuke**
Oh yeah?
**[00:32] Mamoru**
Good morning.
**[00:36] Emi**
That makes him just like her child.
**[00:41] Takuma**
Y-Yeah.
**[00:44] Takuma**
That's right.
***SIGN*** #12 My Wife Is The Best
**[02:18] Takuma**
The truth is, well... I think so too.
**[02:22] Emi**
Hello, Mamoru-chan.
**[02:25] Emi**
Do you know what "hello" means?
**[02:27] Mamoru**
Hello?
**[02:28] Emi**
That's right.
**[02:29] Mamoru**
"Hello" is a greeting for
when you meet someone.
**[02:32] Emi**
Well! Listen to you.
**[02:34] Mamoru**
"Good morning" when you wake up.
**[02:36] Emi**
That's right.
**[02:37] Mamoru**
"Good night" when you go to sleep.
**[02:38] Emi**
Right, right.
**[02:40] Daisuke**
Huh.
**[02:41] Mamoru**
I can also say "time to eat"
and "thanks for the meal!"
**[02:44] Emi**
Oh my, Mamoru-chan, you're amazing.
**[02:50] Daisuke**
They do some impressive work
with robots these days.
**[02:53] Takuma**
Y-Yeah, really.
**[02:57] Emi**
Huh?
**[03:05] Daisuke**
H-Hey...
**[03:10] Emi**
Oh wow!
**[03:13] Emi**
His laugh is just like Takuma's!
**[03:15] Daisuke**
It's true.
**[03:17] Takuma**
No, it's not. I don't laugh like that.
**[03:21] Emi**
No, when you were little.
**[03:24] Emi**
If something made you happy,
you'd giggle like that.
**[03:30] Takuma**
Really?
**[03:31] Emi**
Can even robots take after someone?
**[03:33] Daisuke**
That can't be possible.
**[03:35] Mamoru**
Just like Takuma?
**[03:36] Emi**
Yes, just like him when he was little.
**[03:41] Mamoru**
Takuma was a robot?
**[03:43] Takuma**
Huh?
**[03:45] Emi**
No, no.
**[03:46] Emi**
You laugh the same way he used to.
**[03:49] Emi**
"Eheeheehee, eheeheehee."
**[03:55] Emi**
*That's so cute.*
**[03:57] Daisuke**
*He's pretty cute.*
**[04:00] Emi**
Hey, Takuma, about how much
does one like him cost?
**[04:04] Takuma**
I'm not actually sure. He was a gift.
**[04:07] Emi**
Oh.
**[04:08] Takuma**
Want me to look it up?
**[04:10] Takuma**
Mi... Mi... Mimamorius. Here we go.
**[04:13] Takuma**
I'll send the URL to your phone.
**[04:17] Emi**
You know, there's something
else I'd like to ask about.
**[04:20] Takuma**
What?
**[04:21] Emi**
You're Mina-chan's owner, right?
**[04:25] Takuma**
Yeah, I registered first thing.
**[04:27] Emi**
Would you consider switching that to me?
**[04:32] Takuma**
Huh?
**[04:33] Takuma**
What for?
**[04:34] Emi**
This is just how I see things,
**[04:37] Emi**
but for you to have "ownership" of the girl
you're calling your wife just seems...
**[04:43] Emi**
creepy.
**[04:48] Daisuke**
Does it matter if she's not his real wife?
**[04:52] Emi**
But isn't she the real thing to you, Takuma?
**[04:58] Mamoru**
Takuma?
**[05:02] Emi**
She is, isn't she?
**[05:04] Takuma**
Yeah.
**[05:05] Emi**
Then I want you to transfer it to me.
**[05:07] Emi**
Or to your father.
**[05:11] Emi**
Because your family is not your property.
**[05:14] (Flashback) senpai**
So, yeah.
**[05:16] (Flashback) senpai**
Family, huh?
**[05:19] (Flashback) Iida**
Because then, she's part of the customer's
valued family, not a company product.
**[05:26] (Flashback) Koshiro**
If you say this robot is your wife, take
that sort of thing into account too.
**[05:36] Takuma**
I think if we talked to Mina-chan,
we'd be able to transfer ownership.
**[05:45] Mina**
I do not recommend transferring ownership.
**[05:48] Takuma**
Huh?
**[05:48] Emi**
Why's that?
**[05:50] Mina**
The actions we robots take are carried
out in the name of our owner's rights.
**[05:56] Mina**
If my owner is in some other location,
**[05:58] Mina**
I could not even peel an apple
without that person's permission.
**[06:04] Emi**
Couldn't we set things up like,
"My permission is unnecessary,"
**[06:07] Emi**
or, "When it's time for action,
abide by Takuma's wishes"?
**[06:12] Mina**
That can be done.
**[06:14] Emi**
In that case...
**[06:15] Mina**
But there is a possibility
I would not be
**[06:17] Mina**
able to react immediately
in unexpected situations.
**[06:21] Emi**
Then could we make it, "When
unexpected situations occur,
**[06:25] Emi**
leave the decisions to Takuma"?
**[06:29] Daisuke**
Yeah.
**[06:38] Mina**
That can be done.
**[06:40] Emi**
Do you... not like the idea?
**[06:49] Takuma**
Are you against it?
**[06:52] Emi**
Why are you against it?
**[06:54] Mina**
There is no logical reason.
**[06:57] Emi**
What sort it is doesn't matter, just tell us.
**[07:00] Takuma**
Yeah.
**[07:03] Mina**
A robot acts to protect all human life,
**[07:07] Mina**
but the owner's life receives top priority.
**[07:11] Mina**
In the event my ownership is
transferred to satisfy Emi-sama,
**[07:15] Mina**
and there comes a time when both
your lives are equally in danger,
**[07:19] Mina**
I would have to save *her*.
**[07:24] Mina**
This is the most important part of me.
**[07:28] Mina**
I would be rendered utterly
incapable of performing it.
**[07:34] Mina**
Emi-sama, please do not
take my job away from me.
**[07:46] Takuma**
I-I don't... want to hand
her over to anyone, either!
**[07:52] Takuma**
No matter how it may seem!
**[08:04] Emi**
That's fine, then. Sure.

**[08:11] Takuma**
So, we'll keep me as primary owner,
and make Mom secondary owner.
**[08:18] Takuma**
This way, even if I run into some kind
of trouble and lose ownership rights,
**[08:23] Takuma**
Mina's memories won't get encrypted.
**[08:27] Takuma**
Also, looks like if Mina-chan
decides there's a problem
**[08:30] Takuma**
with her relationship with her primary owner,
**[08:33] Takuma**
she'll be free to seek safe
haven with her secondary owner.
**[08:39] Takuma**
How about setting things up that way for now?
**[08:42] Emi**
Sounds good to me.
**[08:45] Takuma**
What about you, Mina-chan?
**[08:47] Mina**
No problem.
**[08:50] Takuma**
Okay.
**[08:53] Daisuke**
Y'know, robots are so interesting.
**[08:58] Daisuke**
We hardly ever see any,
living out in the country.
**[09:03] Takuma**
Dad.
**[09:06] Daisuke**
What's up?
**[09:08] Takuma**
Well, sorry.
**[09:11] Takuma**
That I couldn't bring home a human wife.
**[09:16] Daisuke**
What're you talkin' about?
**[09:17] Takuma**
Huh?
**[09:18] Daisuke**
For me, it's a relief you're not all alone.
**[09:22] Daisuke**
But sure, I'd be lying if I said
I didn't prefer a human wife.
**[09:27] Takuma**
Also that I couldn't show
you a grandchild's face.
**[09:31] Daisuke**
Cut it out, silly.
**[09:33] Daisuke**
You know how it is with people.
**[09:35] Daisuke**
They're born because it
was their parents' idea.
**[09:38] Daisuke**
Like, you want to hold the child of the
one you love, or accidents happen.
**[09:41] Daisuke**
There are reasons and excuses,
but, eh, it all stems from ego.
**[09:46] Daisuke**
Even if you can take steps before and
after to make it all for the best,
**[09:50] Daisuke**
that never changes the fact it
happened because someone wanted it.
**[09:54] Daisuke**
That's why I think sometimes,
it's okay to say "no thanks."
**[10:00] Daisuke**
Don't worry about how we feel about it.
**[10:02] Daisuke**
You dwell too much on
what other people think.
**[10:06] Daisuke**
Don't be so quick to apologize.
**[10:11] Takuma**
Okay.

Hello.

Hello, Akari-sama.
**[10:39] Akari**
Mina-san too! What's going on?
**[10:42] Takuma**
We dropped by for introductions.
**[10:44] Akari**
Introductions?
**[10:47] Akari**
* He brought Mina-san here to*
* introduce her as his wife?!*
**[10:50] Akari**
*I wanted...*

*I wanted to be here for that!*

Akari, what's wrong?
**[11:01] Akari**
Is this Mamoru-kun, who I
heard about from Mina-san?!
**[11:05] Mamoru**
Hi there!
**[11:09] Akari**
He's not quite the same
as on the TV commercials.
**[11:14] Takuma**
A-About that.
**[11:18] Akari**
Huh?
**[11:20] Akari**
His main program isn't running?
**[11:22] Akari**
He learned? He's irregular?
**[11:25] Akari**
He runs on his own, based
on Mina-san's program?
**[11:30] Akari**
Huh? Huh?
**[11:34] Akari**
Does that mean...
**[11:40] Akari**
*Main program. Learned. Irregular.*
**[11:44] Akari**
* Runs... on his own...*
* based on... Mina-san...*

Hey, Akari. Get a grip!

Wait. Wait, wait.

Don't feed me so much news at once.
**[12:08] Takuma**
Huh?

your own spin on our news?
**[12:20] Emi**
Welcome home. We have curry.

Mina-chan made it.

That is good.
***SIGN*** Several Days Later
**[13:46] Takuma**
This taste...
**[13:48] Takuma**
It sure takes me back.
**[13:49] Mina**
Emi-sama taught me how to make it.
**[13:52] Takuma**
It's nostalgic...
**[13:57] Takuma**
But I think maybe now, I like
the way yours tastes better.
**[14:02] Mina**
Very well.
**[14:08] deliveryman**

Thank you!
**[14:16] Emi**
I bought one!
**[14:19] Emi**
Let's see.

**[14:20] Emi**
First, "Push on the head to start it up."
**[14:29] Mimamorius 3**
Nice to meet you.
**[14:32] Mimamorius 3**
I am Mimamorius 3, a monitoring robot.
**[14:35] Emi**
What a deep voice.
**[14:37] Emi**
So...
**[14:38] Emi**
"Once it's started up,
enjoy some conversation."
***SIGN*** Monitoring robot
Mimamorius 3
**[14:41] Emi**
"Mimamorius 3 has a low voice that
senior citizens find easy to hear,
**[14:47] Emi**
so you can converse with it free of concern."
**[14:49] Mimamorius 3**
First, please give me a name.
**[14:53] Emi**
Umm, okay, I'll call you John-kun.
**[14:56] Mimamorius 3**
Very well.
**[14:58] Mimamorius 3**
I am John.
**[15:00] Emi**
Yep, that's one deep voice.
**[15:09] John**
That is a bit heavy on sodium and fat.
**[15:11] John**
Taking your respective ages into account,
it would seem prudent to cut back.
**[15:18] Daisuke**
Can you believe it!
**[15:20] Emi**
Oh, honey, you kidder!
**[15:22] John**
Please go to bed soon.

Emi-sama, good night.
**[15:39] Emi**
*Somehow, this isn't what I was expecting.*
**[15:43] Emi**
*He doesn't go "ehee."*
***SIGN*** I see. So, you're hoping for a single-family residence?
**[15:55] Takuma**
Yes. My family has grown, and
our apartment feels cramped now.
***SIGN*** Moving Beavers
***SIGN*** This one is an older house, but I suspect it's plenty spacious.

**[16:08] Takuma**
Hup.
**[16:11] Mina**
Are you sure I should not help?
**[16:14] Takuma**
Yeah, it's fine.
**[16:16] Takuma**
*If she does anything besides cook,*
**[16:18] Takuma**
* that add-on program announcement*
* will play endlessly again.*
**[16:23] Takuma**
Maybe you could think about how
we'll arrange things in the kitchen.
**[16:26] Mina**
I will go look.
**[16:29] Mamoru**
Takuma!
**[16:31] Takuma**
Ayoomp.
**[16:34] Takuma**
Done!
**[16:37] Takuma**
Behold, Mamoru-kun. A cardboard maze!
**[16:42] Takuma**
That arrow is the starting point.
**[16:44] Takuma**
You'll clear it once you get
that die cushion at the top,
**[16:47] Takuma**
then bring it back to the start.
**[16:51] Takuma**
You in?
**[16:52] Mamoru**
In!
**[16:53] Mamoru**
In in in in in in!
**[16:55] Takuma**
Okay, then I'm going to
time how long it takes you.
**[16:59] Takuma**
Stand by at the starting point.
**[17:01] Mamoru**
I'm there.
**[17:02] Takuma**
Ready!
**[17:06] Takuma**
Start!
**[17:12] Takuma**
* Once I said we were moving to*
* a place with a bit more space,*
**[17:15] Takuma**
* they sent along all the books, games,*
* and such I'd left behind at my parents'.*
**[17:19] Takuma**
*I wasn't sure what to do with it all, but...*
**[17:35] Takuma**
W-Wait, wait, Mamoru-kun.
**[17:38] Takuma**
Doesn't that defeat the
purpose of building a maze?
**[17:42] Mamoru**
Does it?
**[17:43] Takuma**
Yeah.
**[17:44] Takuma**
I'm impressed, but let's
say climbing's not allowed.
**[17:55] Takuma**
Well, Mina-chan?
**[17:58] Mina**
It is spacious and clean.
**[17:59] Takuma**
Looks like they had just
renovated the kitchen.
**[18:03] Takuma**
I chose this place in the
hope that you would enjoy it.
**[18:08] Mina**
You are the one who will enjoy it.
**[18:10] Mina**
You will get to eat even tastier food.
**[18:14] Takuma**
That's true.
**[18:15] Mina**
Take a look.
**[18:16] Mina**
The stove has four burners.
**[18:18] Takuma**
Sure does.
**[18:24] Mina**
Darling, what would you like
to eat on your first day here?
**[18:28] Takuma**
Huh? "Darling"?
**[18:30] Mina**
Would Tak-kun like some housewarming soba?
**[18:34] Takuma**
Hold on, what's gotten into you?
**[18:36] Mina**
Emi-sama was calling Daisuke-sama
things like "Dear" and
**[18:40] Mina**
"Honey," so I did some online research.
**[18:44] Mina**
It seems there are numerous ways
of addressing one's spouse.
**[18:47] Takuma**
Well, that's true.
**[18:49] Mina**
I think I will search for the
one you like best, Taku-chan.
**[18:53] Takuma**
"Taku-chan"...
**[18:55] Takuma**
Uh, aren't you going to
ask me which I'd prefer?
**[18:58] Mina**
If you order it, I will comply.
**[19:00] Takuma**
Oh, well, it's not an order,
but wouldn't it be faster?
**[19:04] Mina**
No problem, Taku-pyon. I have
generated a unique algorithm
**[19:08] Mina**
to determine your preferences.
**[19:11] Takuma**
Right.
**[19:13] Mina**
I cannot rely on the things
you say, Takuma-kun.
**[19:15] Mina**
You claim that every dish is delicious.
**[19:18] Mina**
There are also "Ta-chin," "Papa," and "Dad."
**[19:22] Takuma**
Sounds like it'll take a
while to decide on one.
**[19:25] Mina**
Trying them all out is also an option.
**[19:27] Mina**
Darling, dear, honey, Tak-kun,
Taku-chan, Taku-pyon.
**[19:33] Takuma**
This is like *Tikki Tikki Tembo*.
**[19:41] Mina**
It looks like Mamoru is tired too.
**[19:43] Takuma**
He spent all day zooming around.
**[19:46] Mina**
Are you not tired as well, Taku-Taku?
**[19:48] Takuma**
I'm fine.
**[19:51] Takuma**
Well, time for bed.
**[19:52] Mina**
Yes.
**[19:53] Takuma**
Good night.
**[19:54] Mina**
Good night.
