[00:01] Shintaro
    It's gotten pretty late.
[00:04] Towa
    But I got to see many new
    sights, so I had lots of fun.
[00:08] Towa
    And the fruit sandwiches
    and dango were delicious.
[00:11] Shintaro
    Yeah? I'm happy for you.
[00:13] Towa
    What would you like for
    dinner, Shintaro-sama?
[00:16] Shintaro
    Oh... Why don't we grab some
    convenience store meals for tonight?
[00:20] Shintaro
    I'd feel bad asking you to cook this late.
[00:23] Towa
    Sure.
[00:32] Towa
    I'll get some hot tea ready in a moment.
[00:35] Shintaro
    Sounds good, thanks.
[00:40] Towa
    Someone's sitting outside...
[00:47] Mari
    Where've you been, Shin-chan?!
[00:49] Shintaro
    Huh?
[00:50] Shintaro
    Mari-chan?!
SIGN    Studio Apartment, Good Lighting, Angel Included
[02:30] Mari
    Yum!
[02:31] Mari
    This pork rib meal is so good!
[02:33] Mari
    I can feel it bringing me back to life!
[02:36] Mari
    Delicious!
[02:38] Shintaro
    She stole the meals so
    naturally. What the heck?
[02:43] Mari
    Sorry I couldn't come check on you, Shin-chan.
[02:47] Mari
    I seriously haven't been able to step outside.
[02:50] Shintaro
    You never do while you're working.
[02:53] Mari
    Right! The more seriously I take work,
    the more of a shut-in I become!
[02:59] Mari
    I draw every second outside of food and
    bath time, but I still don't get any—
[03:04] Towa
    Here you are.
[03:05] Mari
    Thanks.
[03:08] Towa
    Um, Shintaro-sama?
[03:10] Shintaro
    Oh, Mari-chan's my aunt.
[03:13] Shintaro
    She owns this apartment.
[03:14] Mari
    I'm Shin-chan's dad's little sister!
    I write manga for a living!
[03:19] Shintaro
    She's a manga artist.
[03:20] Mari
    That.
[03:24] Mari
    Yeet!
[03:25] Shintaro
    Are you drunk?!
[03:26] Mari
    Nope! I'm just tired as hell!
SIGN    Note: She's undergone special training to withstand this.
    Please do not try this at home.
[03:30] Mari
    I haven't slept for 72 hours!
[03:34] Towa
    So, what's a "manga artist"?
[03:36] Mari
    Huh? You don't know?
[03:39] Mari
    Sheltered rich girl?
[03:40] Shintaro
    Uh...
[03:41] Shintaro
    She writes stuff like this.
[03:43] Towa
    She's an author?
[03:45] Mari
    Hey, that's not one of my works.
[03:49] Shintaro
    I don't own anything you've put out.
[03:52] Mari
    Why? They're your aunt's works!
[03:54] Mari
    Be first in line to buy them!
[03:56] Shintaro
    I can't read them. The fact that you
    wrote all that ruins my immersion.
[04:01] Mari
    Then forget it!
[04:02] Mari
    Forget all about me!
[04:04] Shintaro
    Are you stupid?!
[04:06] Shintaro
    Anyway, that was our dinner you just ate.
[04:11] Mari
    I'm sorry! All those all-nighters
    without food or drink ruined me!
[04:15] Mari
    I can't think straight!
[04:17] Shintaro
    Yeah, well, I sympathize...
[04:19] Mari
    And still!
[04:20] Mari
    I had to wait for you 'cause
    you were gone! Sob emoji!
[04:24] Shintaro
    A grown-ass woman shouldn't
    be talking in emoji.
[04:26] Mari
    I'm doing it because I'm a grown-ass woman!
[04:28] Shintaro
    Sheesh. You should've grabbed
    something to eat while you waited.
[04:32] Mari
    Huh?
[04:35] Shintaro
    Yikes.
[04:36] Shintaro
    The extreme exhaustion and hunger have
    thrown her survival instincts out of whack.
[04:42] Shintaro
    So?
[04:43] Shintaro
    How long were you waiting by the door?
[04:45] Mari
    Since about 3 PM.
[04:46] Shintaro
    Ack. Why didn't you contact me?
[04:49] Mari
    I left my phone at home.
[04:51] Shintaro
    But why?
[04:52] Mari
    My editor installed a GPS tracking app on it.
[04:54] Shintaro
    What? That's creepy!
SIGN    Growl
[04:59] Towa
    I think I'll make something after all.
[05:02] Shintaro
    Sorry. We bought meals so
    you wouldn't have to cook...
[05:06] Towa
    Don't worry about it.
[05:07] Mari
    Oh, wait.
[05:09] Mari
    I brought cake. Want some?
[05:14] Shintaro
    Wait, is that a whole cake? What's the occasion?
[05:18] Mari
    Well...
[05:20] Mari
    It's my birthday.
[05:21] Shintaro
    What?
[05:23] Mari
    Yeah... Nobody's wished me
    a happy birthday all day.
[05:27] Mari
    I thought my editor would say something
    after I finished my work, but nope.
[05:33] Shintaro
    Wait, are editors meant to celebrate
    authors' birthdays with them?
[05:37] Mari
    So I decided I would eat some cake with you...
[05:41] Mari
    And bought my own cake...
    my own birthday cake...
[05:47] Mari
    Stupid editor!
[05:49] Mari
    Dummy poop head!
[05:51] Shintaro
    Wait, don't cry!
[05:52] Shintaro
    Don't cry, Mari-chan!
[05:57] Shintaro
    Happy birthday to you.
[06:01] Shintaro
    Happy birthday to you.
SIGN    Mari-chan
    Happy 28th Birthday
[06:05] Shintaro
    Happy birthday, dear Mari-chan.
[06:10] Shintaro
    Happy birthday to you.
[06:15] Shintaro
    Seriously, what even is this?
[06:21] Mari
    I'm so sorry.
[06:23] Mari
    My emotions are always a
    mess right after a deadline.
[06:26] Mari
    I think my nerves are frayed or something...
[06:29] Towa
    Please don't cry.
[06:31] Mari
    Thanks.
[06:33] Mari
    Thank you. You're so nice, miss.
[06:37] Mari
    Wub.
[06:39] Mari
    So, who is she?
[06:41] Shintaro
    You ask now?
[06:42] Mari
    Well, I've been wondering who
    this pretty young lady is.
[06:45] Shintaro
    Yeah, okay, I did kinda
    forget to introduce her!
[06:49] Shintaro
    Hang on! How am I supposed to explain this?
[06:53] Shintaro
    I'm having a girl live with me
    without my landlady's permission.
[06:56] Shintaro
    Won't that get me in trouble?
[06:58] Shintaro
    And there's no way I can
    tell her she's an angel.
[07:01] Towa
    My apologies for not introducing
    myself sooner. My name is Towa.
[07:05] Towa
    Shintaro-sama has helped me out a great deal,
[07:08] Towa
    and I've always wanted to thank
    the owner of this apartment—
[07:10] Shintaro
    Oh, s-s-stop right there, Towa-chan!
[07:13] Shintaro
    We probably shouldn't reveal
    that she's living with me!
[07:16] Shintaro
    Which means we need a
    plausible cover story...
[07:20] Mari
    Oh!
[07:21] Mari
    Is Towa-chan your girlfriend?
[07:25] Shintaro
    Classmate!
[07:26] Mari
    Really?
[07:27] Mari
    You can tell me the truth.
    Way to go, playboy.
[07:30] Shintaro
    W-We're on the school festival
    committee, so we're having a meeting.
[07:34] Mari
    Aren't school festivals held in the fall?
[07:36] Mari
    You're making arrangements early.
[07:38] Shintaro
    Yeah...
[07:40] Shintaro
    There I go again, making up
    stupid excuses on the spot.
[07:44] Mari
    I see.
[07:46] Mari
    Towa-chan, how's Shin-chan at school?
[07:49] Mari
    Is he being a good boy?
    Is he a hit with the ladies?
[07:51] Towa
    A hit?
[07:52] Shintaro
    What are you asking her?!
[07:54] Mari
    Hey, I'm your guardian now.
    I have the right to know.
[07:59] Shintaro
    No, you don't!
[08:01] Mari
    Towa-chan! Shin-chan's being mean to me!
[08:04] Mari
    Me, who changed his diapers
    and gave him milk!
[08:07] Shintaro
    Hey, hold on a second now!
    That's playing dirty!
[08:10] Towa
    Diapers and milk? Really?
[08:12] Mari
    You see, I lived in the same neighborhood
    as Shin-chan back when he was little.
[08:16] Mari
    My brother and his wife both worked,
    so I looked after him often.
[08:22] (Flashback) Yung Shintaro
    Mari-cha... Waz this?
[08:24] (Flashback) Mari
    Hmm? Oh, this?
[08:25] Mari
    He was such a little angel!
[08:28] Mari
    So gosh darn adorable.
[08:30] Towa
    Wow.
[08:31] Towa
    I would've loved to have
    met little Shintaro-sama.
[08:35] Mari
    Want me to bring pics next time?
[08:37] Shintaro
    Do not! Please!
[08:39] Mari
    What's the big deal? You were cute!
[08:42] Shintaro
    It's still embarrassing!
[08:43] Mari
    Whew, check out Mr. Teenage Angst.
[08:46] Mari
    By the way...
[08:47] Mari
    Why does she call you "Shintaro-sama"?
[08:50] Shintaro
    Good question, actually. I stopped
    questioning it 'cause I got so used to it.
[08:54] Mari
    Are you making her call you that?
[08:57] Shintaro
    No! Quit backing away
    slowly! It's my nickname!
[09:00] Shintaro
    Everyone in school calls me that as a joke!
[09:03] Mari
    What the heck? That's so funny.
SIGN    Pfft
[09:06] Shintaro
    One stupid lie after another.
SIGN    Mari-chan
    Happy 28th Birthday
[09:18] Towa
    I'll go make some tea.
[09:20] Shintaro
    Oh, thanks.
[09:22] Mari
    She's really thoughtful. Such a nice girl.
[09:26] Shintaro
    Yeah.
[09:28] Mari
    Is she really an angel?
[09:30] Mari
    I wish she'd join our family.
[09:33] Mari
    Wait, why are you blushing?
[09:35] Mari
    I meant I'd marry her, not you.
[09:39] Mari
    So, how's it look?
[09:41] Mari
    Think you got a chance?
[09:42] Shintaro
    Again, it's not like that!
[09:44] Mari
    Shucks.
[09:47] Mari
    Mind if I use the bathroom?
[09:48] Shintaro
    Go ahead.
[09:52] Mari
    Say, why do you have two toothbrushes?
[09:55] Shintaro
    I prefer to use separate ones
    for front and back teeth!
[09:59] Mari
    You do?
[10:01] Shintaro
    Ugh, she's too perceptive for
    someone running on no sleep.
[10:09] Mari
    Ugh. The brain fog's finally clearing up.
[10:12] Mari
    I can sense the carbs
    circulating in my brain.
[10:15] Mari
    I feel human again.
[10:20] Mari
    But I can't believe Shin-chan
    invited a girl over.
[10:25] Mari
    I always thought he was the passive
    type, so this is a pleasant surprise.
[10:28] Mari
    Well, he does live alone.
    He can invite whoever he wants.
[10:33] Mari
    Whoever he wants...
[10:35] Mari
    Do whatever he wants...
[10:37] Mari
    Living alone...

    dabble in drugs or orgies!
[10:46] Shintaro
    What are you even saying?!
[10:48] Towa
    Org—
[10:48] Shintaro
    And Towa-chan! Don't repeat after her!
[10:53] Mari
    That was great.
[10:55] Mari
    Thanks, Towa-chan.
[10:57] Towa
    You're welcome.
[10:59] Mari
    But you should probably
    think about going home soon.
[11:02] Mari
    It's getting late.
[11:04] Mari
    Let's walk her home, Shin-chan.
[11:07] Shintaro
    Uh, well...
[11:08] Mari
    Her family is going to
    start worrying about her.
[11:12] Shintaro
    You're right about that.
[11:14] Shintaro
    Yeah, I should've seen this coming.
[11:16] Mari
    Let's hit up the convenience
    store after we walk her.
[11:20] Towa
    U-Um... er...
[11:25] Towa
    Wh-What do we do? Where am I supposed to go?
[11:29] Shintaro
    Split off at some point,
[11:31] Shintaro
    and then fly to the balcony,
    taking utmost care not to be seen.
[11:34] Shintaro
    Can you wait there until Mari-chan leaves?
[11:37] Towa
    Got it.
[11:39] Mari
    What are you two whispering about?
[11:42] Mari
    Boo, boo.
[11:44] Shintaro
    We were just discussing the school festival.
[11:47] Mari
    Oh, right.
[11:48] Mari
    I'm so sorry, Towa-chan.
[11:51] Mari
    I interrupted your meeting.
[11:53] Towa
    D-Don't be.
[11:54] Mari
    Should I come explain to your family
    why you're getting home so late?
[11:59] Towa
    You don't have to.
[12:02] Towa
    I-I'll be fine from here.
[12:04] Shintaro
    O-Okay.
[12:06] Shintaro
    Uh... See you.
[12:08] Towa
    Bye. Goodnight.
[12:11] Mari
    Towa-chan!
[12:15] Towa
    Auntie Mari-chan?
[12:17] Mari
    Just Mari's fine.
[12:19] Towa
    Miss Mari-chan, then.
[12:21] Mari
    You see, Towa-chan,
[12:22] Mari
    Shin-chan can be a bit shy,
    but he's a very nice boy.
[12:28] Mari
    I can promise you that.
[12:30] Mari
    Please continue to spend time
    with him, if you don't mind.
[12:36] Towa
    I will.
[12:38] Mari
    Bye.
[12:39] Towa
    Goodnight.
[12:42] Shintaro
    How long does Mari-chan
    intend to stay, anyway?
[12:54] Towa
    I'm pretty sure nobody saw me.
[12:57] Towa
    Are Shintaro-sama and Miss Mari-chan back?
[13:00] Shintaro
    What were you and Towa-chan talking about?
[13:03] Mari
    Secret.
[13:05] Shintaro
    Anyway, once you finish that,
    you should get going, too.
[13:08] Mari
    I'm not going anywhere tonight.
[13:10] Shintaro
    Huh?
[13:11] Mari
    I bought a sleepover kit while
    I was at the convenience store.
[13:15] Mari
    I stocked up on booze, too.
[13:16] Shintaro
    Hey, go home!
[13:18] Mari
    Why the sudden change in treatment?
[13:21] Shintaro
    No, seriously, you need to leave.
[13:23] Shintaro
    Towa-chan will have to spend the
    night on the balcony otherwise!
SIGN    Déjà vu
[13:27] Mari
    No way. I'd have to get back
    to work if I went home.
SIGN    Scree!!
[13:30] Mari
    Not happening! I can't work with
    an editor who forgets my birthday!
[13:35] Mari
    Absolutely not! I refuse!
[13:38] Shintaro
    Has she ever heard of professionalism?
[13:40] Mari
    Jerk! Dummy! Kida, you dummy!
[13:43] Shintaro
    "Kida"?
[13:44] Shintaro
    Wait, your publisher is Squeemix, right?
[13:49] Mari
    Yeah, why?
[13:51] Shintaro
    Then are you talking about Kida Mitsuru-san?!
[13:54] Shintaro
    Of Overnight Oil Baron and The Legend
    of the Rowdy Feudal Lord fame?!
[13:58] Mari
    Huh? Why do you know an editor's name?
[14:01] Shintaro
    He's mentioned in the
    afterwords and imprints!
[14:03] Shintaro
    I'm a huge fan of the stuff Kida-san edits!
[14:06] Shintaro
    And I read Oil Baron weekly!
[14:08] Shintaro
    It's getting a Hollywood adaptation, right?
[14:09] Mari
    Yikes, Shin-chan, you're scaring me.
[14:12] Mari
    Or creeping me out, actually.
[14:13] Shintaro
    I mean, he's a superstar editor!
[14:16] Shintaro
    All the authors he manages
    are household names, too!
[14:20] Mari
    Yeah, well, I'm no household name.
[14:23] Mari
    That's why my editor doesn't care about me.
[14:26] Shintaro
    Sorry, sorry!
[14:27] Shintaro
    I'm sure you're popular,
    too! Not that I know!
[14:30] Mari
    You don't?!
[14:31] Shintaro
    You got that one anime adaptation, too!
[14:33] Mari
    Yeah, years ago!
[14:34] Shintaro
    Your schedule's packed, right?
    That proves your work's popular!
[14:37] Mari
    Manga takes the same amount of
    work regardless of popularity.
[14:41] Mari
    It's fine, really.
[14:43] Mari
    I'm a constant reminder to Kida of how
    much of a dead weight failed authors are.
[14:48] Mari
    I'm providing value to the magazine as
    a shining example of what not to do.
[14:52] Shintaro
    Please stop with the self-affirming
    self-deprecation.
[14:55] Mari
    Anyway, I'm spending the night here!
[14:57] Mari
    I'll sleep on the floor,
    so lend me a blanket!
[14:59] Shintaro
    Hey, the trains are still running!
[15:02] Shintaro
    Believe in yourself and your
    ability to make it home, okay?
[15:06] Mari
    No!
[15:07] Shintaro
    Don't give me that!
[15:13] Shintaro
    Towa-chan.
[15:15] Shintaro
    "I'm okay."
[15:17] Shintaro
    "I can sleep... on the
    balcony... just fine..."
[15:20] Shintaro
    I can't accept that!
[15:23] Shintaro
    Who is it so late at night?
[15:27] Mari
    Wait, don't open the door!
[15:29] Mari
    I felt a Newtype flash just now!
[15:32] Shintaro
    What?
[15:36] Shintaro
    Huh?
[15:38] Shintaro
    Wait, what?!
[15:39] Kida
    Found you...
[15:42] Kida
    You piece of trash!
[15:47] Mari
    Why are you here, Kida-chan?!
[15:48] Kida
    I searched all the places
    you were likely to go!
[15:53] Kida
    And I remembered you went and bought an
    apartment when you were flavor of the month!
[15:59] Kida
    You nincompoop!
[16:00] Mari
    Don't call it flavor of the
    month! You'll make me cry!
[16:03] Shintaro
    Kida? Is this Kida Mitsuru?
[16:07] Shintaro
    Kida's a woman?
[16:08] Shintaro
    Eek!
[16:09] Kida
    And who is this?
[16:11] Mari
    My son.
[16:12] Kida
    Wha?!
[16:13] Shintaro
    I'm not! I'm her nephew, and I'm
    renting this apartment from her!
[16:17] Shintaro
    Thank you for looking after my aunt!
[16:21] Kida
    I'm terribly sorry!

[16:27] Kida
    I truly apologize, Shintaro-kun.
[16:29] Shintaro
    I-It's okay...
[16:31] Kida
    You should've told me you were
    looking after your teenage nephew!
[16:34] Kida
    I wouldn't have locked you
    up for two months, then!
[16:37] Mira
    I kinda just forgot.
[16:40] Kida
    I hope you didn't have any trouble while
    your guardian wasn't around to help.
[16:43] Shintaro
    Oh, it was totally fine. We kept
    in touch regularly, anyway.
[16:47] Kida
    I'll have her come check on you
    every so often from now on.
[16:51] Shintaro
    Oh, no need. She doesn't
    have to show up, ever.

    Shin-chan?!

    Eek! I'm sorry! Please don't yell at me!
[17:00] Mari
    I'll work, I'll work!

    I'll work like a dog!
[17:05] Kida
    Happy birthday.
[17:11] Kida
    I'm glad I got to wish you well on the day.
[17:13] Mari
    You remembered?
[17:15] Kida
    Of course I did.
[17:17] Kida
    And heck! I slipped away,
    bought a cake, and went to your place,
[17:21] Kida
    only to find it empty! I panicked so hard!
[17:25] Mari
    Kida-chan... You came for me
    even though you're so busy?
[17:29] Kida
    Yes, my schedule is totally packed.
[17:32] Kida
    I don't have a second to waste on
    authors I don't care a lick about.
[17:37] Mari
    I...
[17:38] Mari
    I knew that! I knew that all along!

[17:47] Kida
    Let's go back and eat that cake.
[17:49] Mari
    Yeah!
[17:50] Kida
    Once you're done, get on that script.
[17:52] Mari
    Sob emoji!
[17:52] Kida
    Don't cry. Makes you look ugly.
[17:53] Shintaro
    This is totally just a lovers' spat.
[17:59] Mari
    Bye, Shin-chan. Call me anytime you need me.
[18:03] Shintaro
    Yeah, thanks.
[18:05] Shintaro
    Oh, and I'm looking forward
    to seeing how Oil Baron goes!
[18:09] Kida
    Thanks. Let me know what you
    think next time we meet.
[18:12] Shintaro
    Sure!
[18:15] Mari
    Like you have the time for that.
[18:19] Kida
    I wouldn't be so busy if you didn't
    blow deadlines all the time.
[18:24] Mari
    I'm so sorry.
[18:28] Shintaro
    Whew, she finally left.
[18:31] Towa
    Shintaro-sama.
[18:33] Shintaro
    Towa-chan.
[18:36] Shintaro
    Uh, I'm sorry for getting
    you mixed up in that.
[18:39] Towa
    Don't be. Miss Mari-chan's a
    very fun person, isn't she?
[18:43] Shintaro
    She's usually better than that.
[18:48] Towa
    I'm happy I got to see you around
    family for the first time.
[18:53] Towa
    It was cute how you were blushing so much.
[18:57] Shintaro
    Please don't get on my back, too!

    I'm not!

    I'll be leaving now. Goodbye.
[20:48] Shintaro
    I gotta get home quick.
    Towa-chan's got dinner ready for me.
[20:58] Shintaro
    Whoa...
[20:59] Shintaro
    Wow, she's really pretty. And...
[21:03] Shintaro
    That's an unusual eye color.
[21:06] Shintaro
    Oh, uh, are you okay?

    Hey!

[21:54] Shintaro
    Oh...
[21:55] Shintaro
    I just finished my shift at a restaurant,
    so maybe I smell like food?

    Wait, is your leg hurt?

    Are you okay?!

    I'm glad to hear it and sorry I asked.
[22:14] Lilishka
    Thanks for helping me.
[22:17] Shintaro
    But I didn't do anything.
[22:19] Shintaro
    Why are you on the run? Who were those guys?
[22:23] Lilishka
    I don't know.
[22:24] Lilishka
    I was walking down the street when
    they suddenly started chasing me.
[22:28] Shintaro
    Damn, sounds crazy. Do you have any idea why?
[22:31] Lilishka
    I presume...
[22:33] Lilishka
    I presume they are descendants
    of Professor Helsing.
SIGN    Professor Helsing?

[22:51] Lilishka
    They have crossed the seas to the Orient
[22:55] Lilishka
    in a bid to wipe us vampires out.
[22:57] Shintaro
    Huh? Hang on a second!
[22:59] Shintaro
    Did you just say "vampires"?
[23:02] Shintaro
    Whoa, whoa! I figured I'd meet a devil
    or kappa, but I got a vampire instead!
[23:07] Shintaro
    Right, I forgot about them!
[23:10] Shintaro
    So, are you...
[23:13] Lilishka
    Hmph.
