SIGN    Western Restaurant Nekoya
[01:36] Both
    Welcome.
[01:39] Souemon
    Thank you.
[01:40] Kuro
    Please sit wherever you'd like.
[01:47] Kuro
    Welcome.
[01:49] Souemon
    I see you've come again.
[01:51] Souemon
    The pale-faced diviner from the Land of Sea!
[01:55] Doushun
    Well, well, if it isn't the mountain ape
    whose only talent is swinging a sword.
[02:01] Doushun
    Forgive me. I meant the samurai
    from the Land of Mountains.
[02:05] Souemon
    Hmph! You are as insufferable as ever.
[02:09] Souemon
    Why are you always here
    at the same time as me?
[02:12] Doushun
    I could ask the same thing of you.
[02:15] Doushun
    I am, after all, quite busy in my
    position as the court diviner.
[02:20] Doushun
    This is the only time
    I am able to come here.
[02:24] Doushun
    On the other hand...
[02:25] Doushun
    You are little more than a court guard,
[02:29] Doushun
    so you are free to come whenever you want.
[02:32] Souemon
    A guard, you say?!
[02:34] Souemon
    You're no more than a sham fortune-teller!
[02:37] Doushun
    Excuse me?!
[02:40] Aletta
    Will they be all right?
[02:42] Sarah
    They're always like that.
[02:45] Sarah
    Mm, that's good!
[02:47] Sarah
    Anyway, you can't blame them.
[02:49] Sarah
    The countries they both come from
    probably play a part in it.
[02:52] Aletta
    Their countries?
[02:54] Sarah
    Oh, you didn't know?
[02:57] Sarah
    Souemon's Land of Mountains
    and Doushun's Land of Sea
[03:01] Sarah
    are neighboring countries
    that are always at odds.
[03:04] Sarah
    It's no surprise that the two of them
    start fighting at the drop of a hat.
[03:09] Aletta
    I had no idea...
[03:13] Aletta
    Oh, but what if they just came here
    at different times of the day?
[03:18] Sarah
    They probably both feel like caving on
    that point would mean admitting defeat.
[03:22] Aletta
    Huh?
[03:23] Souemon
    What did you say?
[03:24] Doushun
    What's the matter?
[03:25] Aletta
    I-I should really go and stop them!
[03:27] Sarah
    Off you go, then.
[03:29] Aletta
    K-Kuro-san! Why are you
    just watching them fight?!
[03:32] Aletta
    Please try to stop them!
[03:35] Kuro
    I sense no murderous intent,
    so I believe they should be fine.
[03:39] Aletta
    B-But they'll disturb the other customers!
[03:44] Souemon
    You're just covering it up with that
    shady act and the stench of the sea!
[03:46] Doushun
    Well, the only impressive
    thing about you is your howl.
[03:50] Kuro
    Sirs...
[04:01] Souemon
    I apologize for all the noise.
[04:03] Doushun
    I am terribly sorry.
[04:05] Kuro
    It's all right.
[04:06] Aletta
    E-Excuse me...
[04:07] Aletta
    If you stay so close to the entrance,
    you'll block other customers.
[04:12] Aletta
    Please have a seat wherever you'd like.
[04:15] Souemon
    She does have a point.
[04:17] Doushun
    Yes, indeed.
[04:22] Aletta
    What?!
[04:23] Aletta
    They're sitting together?!
[04:25] Kuro
    Here are your complimentary
    glasses of water and wet hand towels.
[04:28] Souemon
    Thank you.
[04:31] Souemon
    I'd like to order now.
[04:33] Aletta
    Oh... Of course!
[04:34] Aletta
    Thank you for waiting.
    What can I get for you?
[04:39] Souemon
    I would like okonomiyaki with pork and egg.
[04:41] Souemon
    With plenty of sauce!
[04:43] Doushun
    I would like okonomiyaki, too.
[04:45] Doushun
    With plenty of seafood and bonito flakes.
[04:48] Aletta
    Coming right up!
[04:51] Souemon
    Seafood as usual, eh?
[04:54] Souemon
    You should be sick of that,
    as a man from the Land of Sea!
[04:56] Doushun
    Well, I would hardly expect pork to be
    uncommon in the Land of Mountains, either.
[05:06] Aletta
    Two orders of okonomiyaki, one with
    pork and egg, one with seafood.
[05:09] Aletta
    Lots of sauce on the pork and egg,
    and lots of bonito flakes on the seafood.
[05:15] Master
    Got it.
[05:15] Aletta
    Um, Master...
[05:17] Master
    What is it?
[05:18] Aletta
    Souemon-san and Doushun-san
    get along so terribly.
[05:22] Aletta
    Why did they sit at the same table?
[05:24] Aletta
    I'm just so anxious that they
    might start fighting again.
[05:29] Master
    Hmm...
[05:31] Master
    They should be fine.
[05:32] Aletta
    Huh?
[05:33] Master
    I don't think they actually
    get along poorly.
[05:36] Aletta
    You don't?
[05:37] Master
    If they can eat a meal at the same table,
[05:40] Master
    they must share some kind of mutual respect.
[05:43] Aletta
    Mutual... respect?
[05:46] Master
    They say the more you fight,
    the closer you are.
[05:49] Aletta
    They fight, but... they're close?
[05:53] Master
    I think you'll understand if you watch them.
[05:57] Kuro
    The more you fight, the closer you are?
[06:00] Kuro
    Mutual respect?
[06:03] Kuro
    I don't understand it.
[06:05] Souemon
    Oh? So the Land of Sea will be doing
    more business with the Empire?
[06:10] Doushun
    Yes, and it is expected to bring even
    more wealth to the Land of Sea.
[06:14] Doushun
    And I hear your country has joined
    forces with a dwarf weaponsmith.
[06:19] Souemon
    I guess a diviner from the Land of Sea
     must have keen ears, eh?
[06:22] Doushun
    I only heard a rumor carried on the breeze.
[06:26] Doushun
    And what are the dwarven weapons like?
[06:29] Souemon
    They're outstandingly well-made!
[06:31] Souemon
    Swords and axes imbued with mana,
[06:34] Souemon
    armor that can even repel magic...
[06:35] Souemon
    And every single one is
    of the finest quality!
[06:38] Doushun
    Oh? How very intriguing!
[06:46] Kuro
    Thank you for waiting.
SIGN    Okonomiyaki
[06:51] Kuro
    Your okonomiyaki.
[06:57] Souemon
    That audibly sizzling hot plate!
[06:59] Souemon
    The scent of the sauce
    that piques my appetite!
[07:02] Doushun
    One would never imagine that the
    elegantly-swaying bonito flakes,
[07:07] Doushun
    which look so much like wood shavings,
    would smell so vividly of the sea!
[07:10] Doushun
    I've waited seven long days for this!
[07:12] Souemon
    Indeed!
[07:14] Souemon
    Now, let's eat!
[07:14] Doushun
    Let us eat!
[07:23] Souemon
    The scents of sauce and bonito
    flakes fill my mouth.
[07:27] Souemon
    The batter is crispy and
    savory on the surface,
[07:30] Souemon
    but soft and fluffy on the inside!
[07:33] Souemon
    The light sprinkling of powdered seaweed,
[07:35] Souemon
    the bonito flakes that look like wood
    shavings from a carpenter's plane...
[07:39] Souemon
    The sweet and salty sauce, and the
    mellow sourness of the mayonnaise...
[07:45] Souemon
    The sweetness of the shredded cabbage and
[07:47] Souemon
    the savoriness of the
    meat hit me all at once!
[07:50] Souemon
    Now this is what I call okonomiyaki!
[07:52] Souemon
    Irresistible!
[07:55] Doushun
    My goodness.
[07:56] Doushun
    I see the samurai from the Land of Mountains
[07:59] Doushun
    still has utterly abhorrent eating habits.
[08:02] Doushun
    One should be more elegant
    when partaking of a meal.
[08:08] Doushun
    It truly is delicious!
[08:10] Doushun
    The shripe and krakeen,
    cut into bite-sized pieces,
[08:13] Doushun
    have been handled so well that
    there's no unpleasant odor at all!
[08:17] Doushun
    The tender-yet-springy texture
    and the savory flavor
[08:20] Doushun
    truly make it a dish of elegant taste!
[08:27] Souemon
    If he keeps eating it that slowly,
[08:29] Souemon
    this piping-hot okonomiyaki will get cold.
[08:43] Doushun
    Just one really doesn't seem like enough.
[08:46] Souemon
    I agree.
[08:49] Souemon
    Perhaps I'll order another.
[08:53] Doushun
    I shall do the same.
[08:55] Souemon
    Seconds, please!
[08:57] Aletta
    Sure.
[08:59] Doushun
    I would also like seconds.
[09:01] Aletta
    Both okonomiyaki, right?
[09:02] Aletta
    Would you like the same flavors again?
[09:06] Souemon
    I'll take the seafood...
[09:08] Doushun
    And I would like pork and egg.
[09:10] Aletta
    Huh?
[09:11] Aletta
    C-Coming right up.
[09:16] Souemon
    You saw me enjoying the pork and egg so much
[09:19] Souemon
    that it made you want to try it as well, eh?
[09:21] Doushun
    What about you?
[09:22] Doushun
    You saw me eating so elegantly that it
    made you want to try the seafood, yes?
[09:27] Souemon
    There you go being stubborn again.
[09:29] Souemon
    You're not being honest!
[09:31] Doushun
    You have not been honest, either.
[09:43] Souemon
    The seafood is delicious, too!
[09:45] Souemon
    The taste of the sea goes just
    as splendidly with the sauce!
[09:49] Souemon
    And the tenderness of the shripe gives it
    an appeal that the pork and egg lacks!
[09:54] Doushun
    Yes, exactly! I knew you would understand!
[09:58] Souemon
    Indeed! And what do you
    think of the pork and egg?
[10:01] Doushun
    It's delicious!
[10:03] Doushun
    Sweet oils from the mild-smelling
    meat have soaked into the batter.
[10:07] Doushun
    It's a very rich flavor!
[10:09] Doushun
    I could eat these one after another!
[10:11] Souemon
    There, you see?
[10:14] Doushun
    What do they cook, and how,
    to result in this flavor?
[10:18] Doushun
    If we could find out and learn to make it,
[10:20] Doushun
    do you not agree that it would aid the
    growth of our countries even further?
[10:26] Souemon
    No doubt about that!
[10:29] Souemon
    It may be even better if we use
[10:31] Souemon
    ingredients from my Land of Mountains
     and your Land of Sea!
[10:35] Doushun
    That is a brilliant idea!
[10:38] Aletta
    It's hard to believe they
    were fighting earlier.
[10:42] Kuro
    Is this the "mutual respect"
    that Master spoke of?
[10:46] Aletta
    Is it?
[10:49] Kuro
    I envy them a bit.
[10:54] Aletta
    Me, too!
[10:55] Master
    See? I told you they'd be fine.
[11:01] Aletta
    We're done cleaning up!
[11:04] Kuro
    All done.
[11:05] Master
    Great, thanks.
[11:10] Aletta
    Master, what are you doing?
[11:13] Master
    I'm making a dessert called "shaved ice."
[11:15] Master
    It's getting hotter lately,
[11:17] Master
    so I thought I'd start serving
    it as a seasonal special.
[11:21] Aletta
    It's so sparkly and pretty!
[11:24] Master
    There's still some time before we open.
[11:26] Master
    Would you like to taste it?
[11:28] Aletta
    Can I?!
[11:31] Master
    You, too, Kuro.
[11:32] Kuro
    Very well.
[11:37] Master
    Which color syrup would you like?
[11:38] Aletta
    Um... Which one should I get?
[11:42] Aletta
    Oh, I'll take red!
[11:43] Master
    Got it. Kuro?
[11:45] Kuro
    Any of them.
[11:47] Master
    Okay, Aletta-san, pick one for her.
[11:50] Aletta
    Huh?
[11:51] Aletta
    Um, okay... then...
[11:54] Aletta
    Blue!
[11:55] Kuro
    Okay.
[12:05] Aletta
    Thank you, god of demons,
    for this, my daily bread.
[12:12] Aletta
    Now, let's eat!
[12:14] Kuro
    Let's eat.
[12:20] Aletta
    It's cold.
[12:23] Aletta
    But it's also sweet and delicious!
[12:25] Kuro
    When it enters my mouth, it melts away.
[12:31] Aletta
    My head hurts!
[12:34] Kuro
    Is it a curse?
[12:36] Master
    It's not a curse.
[12:38] Master
    Eating this can cause that. It's harmless.
[12:41] Kuro
    How intimidating...
[12:43] Aletta
    My head suddenly hurts, but...
[12:46] Aletta
    It's delicious!
[12:48] Aletta
    Oh! Kuro-san, your mouth is all blue!
[12:51] Kuro
    Your tongue is red, too.
[12:53] Aletta
    Really?!
[12:56] Master
    The coloring in the syrup sticks to you.
[12:59] Aletta
    Oh, I see!
[13:02] Kuro
    Interesting.
[13:03] Master
    That's one of the fun parts
    of eating shaved ice.
[13:13] Aletta
    Oh, is that a customer?
[13:16] Aletta
    I'll take this one.
SIGN    Paradise
[13:35] Ilzegant
    I'm so bored.
[13:37] Ilzegant
    There's nothing to do.
[13:40] Ilzegant
    Even if it was to escape the epidemic
    that struck the elves so long ago,
[13:45] Ilzegant
    turning this area into a floating
    island was going way too far.
[13:52] Ilzegant
    Then again, it's because
    they fled to the sky
[13:55] Ilzegant
    that I was born and can live here today...
[13:59] Ilzegant
    But I've even grown bored with the magic
    research that my parents left behind.
[14:03] Ilzegant
    What should I do today?
[14:12] Ilzegant
    Something's odd about the flow of mana.
[14:15] Ilzegant
    Maybe today won't be just an ordinary day!
[14:23] Ilzegant
    Golem, take me to the destination.
SIGN    Western Restaurant Nekoya
[14:41] Ilzegant
    Oh? What's this?
[14:44] Ilzegant
    Teleportation magic?
[14:47] Ilzegant
    And it connects to another world.
[14:50] Ilzegant
    This should be interesting.
[14:59] Ilzegant
    Huh, look at this.
[15:01] Ilzegant
    It really is another world.
[15:05] Aletta
    Welcome!
[15:07] Ilzegant
    What is this? What does it do?
[15:10] Aletta
    Uh, excuse me...
[15:12] Ilzegant
    Who are you?
[15:15] Ilzegant
    You have short ears...
    and horns on your head.
[15:19] Ilzegant
    A descendant of the ones who prayed to
    the God of Chaos, Ruler of All Life?
[15:23] Ilzegant
    I've never seen one before.
[15:25] Aletta
    Huh? Life? Chaos?
[15:28] Ilzegant
    Oh, I guess it'd be clearer
    if I said "demons."
[15:31] Ilzegant
    Wait, you...
[15:33] Ilzegant
    Your tongue is so red!
[15:35] Ilzegant
    Is that true of all demons?
[15:37] Aletta
    My tongue is red because
    I just ate shaved ice.
[15:40] Ilzegant
    Let me have a look!
[15:43] Kuro
    Please stop that.
[15:45] Ilzegant
    Oh... I apologize.
[15:47] Ilzegant
    I haven't interacted with
    anyone else in 200 years,
[15:50] Ilzegant
    so I got a bit excited.
[15:52] Aletta
    Oh, it's all right...
[15:54] Aletta
    Wait, 200 years?!
[15:56] Ilzegant
    Yes. I live alone on an island in
    the sky that has no correspondence
[16:00] Ilzegant
    with the surface folks.
[16:02] Ilzegant
    Also, this is the first time I've
    left the island in my entire life.
[16:06] Kuro
    A floating island?
[16:08] Ilzegant
    Yes, using special magic
    that my parents created.
[16:11] Aletta
    Wow...
[16:12] Ilzegant
    Anyway, what is this place?
[16:15] Kuro
    This is a shop called Nekoya
    that serves cuisine.
[16:18] Ilzegant
    A shop?
[16:20] Ilzegant
    A shop is a thing that offers goods
    in exchange for currency, right?
[16:24] Kuro
    Correct.
[16:25] Ilzegant
    And "cuisine" refers to things like
    meat and vegetables that have been
[16:29] Ilzegant
    boiled, baked, or otherwise prepared
    to make them taste good, right?
[16:32] Kuro
    Correct.
[16:33] Ilzegant
    How interesting! Serve me
    some of this "cuisine"!
[16:37] Kuro
    Of course. Please sit anywhere you'd like.
[16:42] Aletta
    Here's your complimentary
    water and wet hand towel.
[16:45] Aletta
    Can you read the language
    of the Eastern Continent?
[16:47] Ilzegant
    Not a problem.
[16:49] Aletta
    Then here's a menu.
[16:55] Ilzegant
    I'm not sure what to make of this "cuisine."
[16:58] Ilzegant
    Serve me something unusual, please.
[17:00] Ilzegant
    Something made without milk, meat,
    fish, or anything like that.
[17:04] Aletta
    Something... unusual?
[17:07] Aletta
    Oh, I know! May I see that menu, please?
[17:11] Aletta
    How about one of these?
[17:13] Aletta
    We just began serving them
    today as a seasonal special.
[17:17] Ilzegant
    A seasonal special?
[17:20] Ilzegant
    Then I'll have this thing called
    "green tea shaved ice."
[17:23] Aletta
    Coming right up!
[17:31] Ilzegant
    This is refreshing and delicious!
[17:33] Ilzegant
    Oh...
[17:34] Ilzegant
    This water has citrus juice in it.
[17:39] Ilzegant
    What in the world are these?
[17:46] Ilzegant
    It's salty.
[17:48] Ilzegant
    Could this be what they call "salt"?
    I've never tasted it before!
[17:52] Kuro
    Yes, that is salt.
[17:55] Kuro
    There is also sugar and soy sauce.
[17:57] Ilzegant
    Soy sauce? I've never heard of that.
[18:02] Ilzegant
    Ah, so this is sugar, eh?
[18:05] Kuro
    The green tea shaved ice
    is made with it, too.
[18:08] Ilzegant
    Then I'll look forward
    to tasting it that way.
[18:13] Aletta
    Thank you for waiting.
SIGN    Green Tea Shaved Ice
[18:17] Aletta
    Here's your green tea shaved ice.
[18:18] Ilzegant
    Huh... So this is "cuisine"?
[18:23] Ilzegant
    It's cold.
[18:25] Ilzegant
    Is this the thing they call "snow"?
[18:29] Ilzegant
    It looks like I'm supposed
    to use this to eat it.
[18:33] Ilzegant
    Okay, I'll try it.
[18:39] Ilzegant
    This is delicious!
[18:41] Ilzegant
    It melts quickly in my mouth,
[18:43] Ilzegant
    and it has a refreshing aroma and a hint
    of bitterness that enhances the sweetness!
[18:46] Ilzegant
    I could get hooked on this!
[18:49] Ilzegant
    But what is this grass-colored liquid?
[18:53] Ilzegant
    It looks like the syrup made
    by boiling medicinal herbs,
[18:55] Ilzegant
    but how long was it boiled to achieve
    such a rich, dark shade of green?
[19:04] Ilzegant
    What is this intense pain that
    feels like it's piercing my head?!
[19:15] Ilzegant
    That pain happens when you eat too much?
[19:19] Ilzegant
    Well, it goes away on its own
    quickly enough, so it's not a problem.
[19:23] Ilzegant
    Now, I think I'll try these beans next.
[19:29] Ilzegant
    They're sweet! Is this what happens to beans
    that are boiled until they dissolve?!
[19:34] Ilzegant
    No...
[19:35] Ilzegant
    They must have been boiled with sugar.
[19:38] Ilzegant
    I have beans in my medicinal
    herb garden that look similar,
[19:41] Ilzegant
    but they're hard and not fit for eating.
[19:44] Ilzegant
    But when they're boiled
    with sugar like this...
[19:47] Ilzegant
    They're so soft and sweet!
[19:52] Ilzegant
    Now, this is next.
[19:56] Ilzegant
    Just what is this, anyway?
[20:02] Ilzegant
    A unique texture... soft, but also springy.
[20:06] Ilzegant
    It tastes faintly of the beans
    and the grass-colored snow,
[20:10] Ilzegant
    but it doesn't seem to have
    any flavor of its own.
[20:13] Ilzegant
    Just what is the purpose
    of these white balls?
[20:19] Ilzegant
    Wait, could it be...
[20:25] Ilzegant
    Oh! Now I get it!
[20:27] Ilzegant
    The light crunch of the
    half-melted grass-colored snow,
[20:31] Ilzegant
    the sweetness of the beans, and the
    springiness of the white balls...
[20:34] Ilzegant
    Eating them together softens the
    bitterness of the green syrup,
[20:36] Ilzegant
    enhances the sweetness,
[20:37] Ilzegant
    and holds the flavors in my mouth much
    longer than when they're eaten separately!
[20:42] Ilzegant
    Magnificent!
[20:44] Ilzegant
    So this is what "cuisine" is!
[20:47] Ilzegant
    Why did I never take any interest
    in something so intriguing before?!
[20:53] Ilzegant
    I want to beat up my younger self!
[20:57] Ilzegant
    I have a question!
[20:58] Aletta
    Okay.
[21:00] Aletta
    What is it?
[21:01] Ilzegant
    Can I come here at any time?
[21:04] Aletta
    No, only once every seven days.
[21:06] Ilzegant
    I see...
[21:11] Ilzegant
    I'd like one more just like this, please.
[21:13] Aletta
    Sure, coming right up!
[21:16] Ilzegant
    Oh, also...
[21:23] Ilzegant
    I guess it's no wonder I feel
    cold after eating four bowls.
[21:26] Ilzegant
    Still...
[21:28] Ilzegant
    I can't believe he shared this much with me!
[21:33] Ilzegant
    Now, I wonder if I can reproduce that
    green tea shaved ice somehow.
[21:39] Ilzegant
    I should be able to make
    the snow part by using the
[21:41] Ilzegant
    blizzard spell I learned from Mom.
[21:44] Ilzegant
    The issues are the medicinal herb
    syrup and the springy white balls.
[21:49] Ilzegant
    For starters...
[21:55] Ilzegant
    To my medicinal herb garden!
[21:58] Ilzegant
    I'm sure it'll have something I can use!
