    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.

    Every morning, I have my
    wife wake me up with a kiss.
[02:59] Nakayama
    That sure does energize me!
[03:01] reporter
    Ah, that's wonderful!
[03:03] reporter
    What kind of kiss are we talking about?
[03:05] Sachi
    Say, like a peck on the forehead.
[03:10] hostess
    That was today's Happy Marriage segment.
[03:12] hostess
    What a lovely couple they were.
[03:13] Takuma
    What's up?
[03:14] Mina
    Nothing.
SIGN    CLONG
[03:22] Takuma
    Oww...
[03:24] Mina
    Good morning.
[03:25] Takuma
    M-Morning.
[03:29] Takuma
    Sh-She's so close.
[03:31] Mina
    I will prepare breakfast.
[03:37] Takuma
    Did she...
[03:39] Takuma
    hit me?
[03:42] Takuma
    That's scary.
[03:44] Takuma
    Breakfast was great.
[03:46] Takuma
    Maybe I did something
    that made her angry.
[03:49] Mina
    Takuma-sama,
    I will deal with the dishes.
[03:53] Takuma
    I may have done some small things,
    but nothing to warrant getting hit.
[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.
SIGN    ZING
SIGN    ZING
[08:54] Mina
    It is nothing.
[08:56] Takuma
    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.

    up another Mina-chan.
[11:27] Takuma
    She's all I need.
[11:31] Super Mina
    Um, could you also look at
    the back half of the catalog?

[11:37] Super Mina
    Yes!

    Full-body high-grade silicon,
    and a facial expression unit.
[12:01] Takuma
    My Mina-chan could become
    like Super Mina-chan?
[12:08] Mina
    My internal performance can
    also be substantially improved.
[12:12] Mina
    And I could submerge myself 100m underwater.
[12:15] Takuma
    Don't, though.
[12:18] Takuma
    Mina-chan could get facial expressions,
    and become soft and squishy.
[12:23] Takuma
    I have mixed feelings about that.
[12:28] Takuma
    No, no!
[12:31] Takuma
    Sorry, I still can't accept this!
[12:34] Mina
    Why not?
[12:36] Takuma
    It's too expensive, and I
    have no reason to accept.
[12:39] Mina
    To my knowledge, there is no law against
    accepting something expensive for no reason.
[12:44] Takuma
    Th-That's true, but I
    can't accept it emotionally.
[12:53] Super Mina
    E-Excuse me!
[12:54] Super Mina
    About reasons!
[12:57] Super Mina
    Rihito-sama—my master.
[13:01] Super Mina
    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.
[23:36] Takuma
    My wife left me (for two weeks).
