    I've been lying the whole time.
[04:59] Yuzu
    Now that you mention it, yeah.
[05:02] Yomogi
    A few things did seem off.
[05:05] Yayoi
    I still don't think that's a
    reason to write stuff like that.
[05:08] Mako
    I know!
[05:09] Mako
    But I really need to scrape up
    money, and I only have a week.
[05:14] Yomogi
    One week? There's no way!

    Why would you need to do that?

    Jovijouva Mokkosu is in Japan, right?
[05:20] Mako
    His party is in a week,
[05:22] Mako
    and Saeka's company is one of the
    movie's sponsors, so we got invited—

    all of us in Celebri-Tea.
[05:29] Yayoi
    Wow, that's so cool!
[05:31] Mako
    No, it isn't!
[05:32] Mako
    The party will be full of celebrities,
    so I need a good dress to wear.
[05:36] Mako
    But I don't have anything like that!
[05:39] Yuzu
    So that's what the money's for.
[05:40] Mako
    If I don't have a dress, Saeka and Hikari
    will find out that I'm not actually rich.
[05:46] Mako
    If that happens, I...
[05:48] Yomogi
    I don't know much about it, but don't
    celebrities' dresses cost like six figures?
[05:52] Yomogi
    You can't earn that in a week.
[05:54] Yuzu
    That leaves us only one choice.

    What?
[05:57] Yuzu
    Cryptocurrency.
[05:59] Yomogi
    That stuff is super dangerous for
    amateurs to get mixed up in!
[06:03] Mako

    You should try it too, Yomogi!

    Phew!
[11:09] Yayoi
    Mako-chan, that was amazing!
    What did all that stuff mean?
[11:13] Mako
    I don't have the slightest clue.
[11:14] Yayoi
    Huh?!
[11:15] Mako
    I just strung together some words
    I found online that looked good.
[11:19] Yomogi
    But your viewers looked convinced.
[11:21] Mako
    The important thing is mood, not meaning.
[11:24] Mako
    That's just how it works.
[11:25] Yuzu
    That can't really be true.
[11:27] Mako
    I've already reached 10,000 members,
[11:30] Mako
    and each membership costs 10,000 yen.
[11:32] Mako
    So add it all up, and...
[11:36] Mako
    If I earn this much every month, I'm rich!
[11:40] Mako
    I'd totally live up to the celeb name!
[11:43] Mako
    I'll be the definition of rich and famous!
[11:45] Yayoi
    I can see it! The castle of
    gold shining behind you!
[11:48] Yuzu
    And the yen pressure system
    could split the world in half!
[11:51] Yomogi
    Seriously, what's a yen pressure system?!
[11:53] Mako
    Heh. But that ain't all.
    I'm gonna keep hitting the jackpot!
[11:58] Yayoi
    Come in.
[12:00] Saeka
    We wanted to share these with you.
[12:02] Saeka
    Thank you for always being so kind to Mako.
[12:04] Mako
    Saeka!
[12:05] Yayoi
    Wow! Thank you!
[12:08] Mako
    W-What?
[12:11] Saeka
    Your brow is furrowed.

[12:23] Yuzu
    Huh?
[12:25] Yuzu
    One of the salon members has a suggestion.
[12:28] Yayoi
    He says he wants to sell power pencils that
    are infused with Mako-chan's abilities.

    Is this really going to bring me

[12:51] Mako
    To those two?
[12:53] Yayoi
    Ah! Another fun suggestion.
    An online handshake event!
[12:56] Yomogi
    Don't the thrills come from
    actually shaking hands, though?
[12:59] Yayoi
    They'll be virtual thrills!

[13:08] Yayoi
    "Sell the rights to be reincarnated
    in a virtual world
[13:11] Yayoi
    after being virtually run over by
    Mako-chan driving a virtual truck."
[13:14] Yomogi
    There's not a scrap of product there.
[13:15] Yuzu
    But it's already flooded with requests!
[13:18] Mako
    The money... It just keeps coming!
[13:21] Mako
    But the thing I really wanted to be is...
[13:24] Yayoi
    Another one! "Get an online
    roundhouse kick from Mako-chan..."
[13:26] Mako
    Enough!
[13:29] Yayoi
    Mako-chan?
[13:31] Mako
    I can't do it like this.
[13:35] Mako
    I first saw them at our high school
     entrance ceremony.
[13:38] Mako
    Saeka and Hikari seemed to be a
    different color than everyone else.
[13:42] Yuzu
    A different color?
[13:43] Mako
    They weren't like anyone else.
[13:45] Mako
    It's as if they were colored in
    with paints made just for them.
[13:48] Mako
    That's what it looked like to me.
[13:51] Mako
    But of course they did.
[13:52] Mako
    One was the heiress to the
    biggest tea company in Japan.
[13:56] Mako
    The other was the heiress to
    a legendary sweets company.
[13:59] Mako
    They were both born special.
    They were so lucky.
[14:02] Mako
    I knew we came from different worlds,
[14:05] Mako
    but when I saw how excited they
    got talking about comedy,
[14:09] Mako
    I just had to meet them.
[14:10] Mako
    You know how unusual it is to
    find women seriously into comedy.
[14:14] Yuzu
    I sure do.
[14:15] Mako
    I wanted to become friends,
    even though I was so different.
[14:20] Mako
    And before I knew it,
[14:22] Mako
    I was lying to them and saying
    I was the daughter of a CEO, too.
[14:26] Yayoi
    So the reason you needed
    all that money was...
[14:29] Mako
    If I kept lying, I knew I'd
    eventually blow my cover.
[14:33] Mako
    If I actually became rich and famous, though,
[14:35] Mako
    I thought the three of us could
     become real friends at last.
[14:41] Mako
    But this isn't the right way.
[14:43] Mako
    I can't really explain it, but even
    if I get rich and famous this way,
[14:46] Mako
    I still don't think I'd be on their level.
[14:49] Mako
    So...
[14:52] Mako
    I'll do it my way instead!
[14:55] Yomogi
    What are you doing now?
[14:57] Mako
    Real celebrities are people
    that everyone looks up to.
[15:01] Mako
    They're almost dreamlike.
[15:02] Mako
    If I want to be like that,
[15:04] Mako
    first I need to give some dreams back
    to the people that supported me.

    How have you been?

    It's nice to see you again.
[17:25] Saeka
    This is Koseki-san, from the

    Indeed, I am Koseki.

    Huh? Why are you here?
[18:08] Yayoi
    Heh heh heh... We snuck in.

    We were worried about you.
[18:13] Mako
    Aw, you don't need to worry about me.
[18:15] Yuzu
    If you don't act like you're rich
    and famous, it'll raise eyebrows.
[18:19] Mako
    You're right. This tiny plate
    wouldn't fit everything, anyway.
[18:23] Mako
    But I expected that, so I brought
    containers for the food!

    Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
[19:12] Saeka
    Please don't fret.
[19:14] Saeka
    That wasn't cheap.
    It was very high-quality tea.
[19:18] Yayoi
    What? What?
[19:19] Saeka
    Someone like you, who sees nothing
    but money, would never understand
[19:24] Saeka
    how valuable that dress actually is.
[19:27] Koseki
    Eh?
[19:28] Saeka
    Furthermore, no matter who you are, I will
    not tolerate someone insulting my friends.
[19:34] Koseki
    Ah! I'm... Ungh!
[19:36] Saeka
    Now, please excuse me.
[19:42] Saeka
    My childhood friend Hikari was the only
    person I felt I could be myself with.
[19:46] Saeka
    My classmates and the other
    children gave me a wide berth.
[19:49] Saeka
    They felt that I came from a different world.
[19:52] Saeka
    It was as if there was an invisible wall
    around me. I was tremendously lonely.
[19:57] Saeka
    But Mako, with nothing but a love
    of comedy, broke down that wall.
[20:04] Saeka
    I can't tell you what a relief it was.
[20:07] Yayoi
    You both knew that Mako wasn't
    rich and famous, didn't you?
[20:10] Hikari
    Of course we did.
[20:12] Hikari
    We knew she was working online
    to make money all week, too.
[20:16] Yomogi
    You did?
[20:17] Hikari
    Naturally. She wasn't
    exactly sneaky about it.
[20:20] Saeka
    We planned to make it look like
    she won a contest or something,
[20:23] Saeka
    and arrange for her to get a dress that way.
[20:26] Saeka
    But thanks to you all,
    we didn't have to do that.
[20:30] Yuzu
    Did you have to go that far?
[20:31] Yuzu
    Why couldn't you just talk
     to Mako-chan about it?
[20:34] Yayoi
    Yeah. Mako-chan is really worried
    that she can't be your friend
[20:37] Yayoi
    unless she's rich like you.
[20:39] Saeka
    If we told her to simply stay the way she is,
[20:42] Saeka
    when she's been working so hard to fit in,
[20:44] Saeka
    wouldn't that be the truly arrogant,
    condescending behavior?
[20:47] Hikari
    It's not as if it'd stop her, anyway.
[20:50] Saeka
    That's right. It wouldn't stop her.
[20:52] Mako
    Hey. You were both here the whole time?
[20:56] Mako
    Ah! This isn't what it looks like!
[20:58] Mako
    I thought I'd bring some gifts to
    all the servants I have at home.
[21:06] Saeka
    The three of us are already friends.
[21:12] Saeka
    If I put effort into it, I could
    probably buy all of Japan.
[21:15] Hikari
    No way!
[21:16] Hikari
    But... I guess I can't rule
    it out in your case, Saeka.
[21:18] Mako
    You mean you haven't bought a country yet?
[21:21] Mako
    I've already bought, like,
    ten countries myself!
[21:23] Saeka
    Oh, my. But I'm not jealous at all.
[21:26] Saeka
    I already have the things I wanted most.
[21:31] Hikari
    What are you even talking about?
     Let's drop it already.

    always make it for her again!
