    Restoration Plan No. 1
    
    The Great Jahy Can't Go Back!
[01:35] jah
    A forty-year-old building.
[01:38] jah
    A tiny 7.3 square meter apartment.
[01:41] jah
    With no bath.
[01:45] jah
    Living like this...
[01:48] jah
    I can't stand living like this anymore!
[01:51] jah
    Not when I'm... I'm actually...
[01:58] Guy
    Authority!
[02:02] Guy
    Magical power!
[02:11] Guy
    Beauty!
[02:16] Nar
    As the Dark Lord's right hand, the Great Jahy
    is the Dark Realm's second-in-command.
[02:20] Nar
    She is feared and revered by all...
[02:31] (Flashback) Guy
    We're under attack!
[02:44] (Flashback) Guy
    Please save us, O Great Jahy!
[02:49] (Flashback) Guy
    She's here!
[02:59] (Flashback) Jah
    What's this?
[03:01] (Flashback) Jah
    It's just a little girl.
[03:03] (Flashback) Jah
    How terribly pathetic of you lot.
[03:06] (Flashback) Jah
    The Dark Realm is no place for little girls.
[03:10] (Flashback) Jah
    Begone at once.
[03:26] (Flashback) Jah
    What?!
[03:33] nar
    With the mana crystal that governs
    magical powers shattered,
[03:37] nar
    the Dark Realm itself
    was doomed to fall apart.
[03:50] Jah
    What the hell is this?!
[03:53] Nar
    And without the mana crystal,
    the Great Jahy found herself...
[03:57] Nar
    in the human realm,
    in the body of a little girl.
[04:01] shirt
    Restore
    the
    Dark
    Realm
[04:01] Jah
    I need to gather up mana crystals
    and restore the Dark Realm forthwith!
[04:16] Jah
    I blame this blasted form!
[04:19] Jah
    Thanks to it, I've been subjected
    to most despicable treatment!
[04:24] Jah
    I'm going to gather every shard
    of the shattered mana crystal
[04:28] Bag
    Sprouts
[04:28] Jah
    and regain my own overwhelming power!
[04:35] Jah
    So salt? Or mayonnaise?
[04:40] Jah
    You know what? Today we're going to be fancy!
[04:48] Jah
    It's time.
[04:50] Jah
    The time has finally come...
[04:54] Nar
    The Great Jahy has not completely
    lost all her magic powers.
[04:58] Nar
    With the small mana crystal
    still in her possession,
[05:02] Nar
    she can temporarily return
    to her previous form.
[05:06] Jah
    Indeed, it's time to do my worst.
[05:12] Jah
    Welcome!
[05:17] Guy
    Hey, missy, we'll take two draft beers too.
[05:19] Jah
    "Missy"?!
[05:21] Jah
    How dare you address me that way!
[05:22] Jah
    Do you know who I am?!
[05:25] Jah
    Two draft beers.
[05:28] Jah
    I am the Great Jahy,
    second-in-command of the Dark Realm!
[05:32] Girl
    I'm so glad I found some good help.
[05:35] Girl
    She's such a hard worker.
[05:38] Jah
    I don't care to be wasting my
    precious power on stuff like this,
[05:43] Jah
    but I must cover my living expenses!
[05:45] Guy
    Missy, we need another round, too!
[05:47] Jah
    C-Coming!
SIGN    Craft
    Pub Maou.
[05:49] Guy
    Can you take my order?
[05:50] jah
    Coming!
[05:52] wom
    Is my yakitori ready?
[05:54] Jah
    Coming!
[05:59] Jah
    What in blazes am I doing?!
[06:01] Jah
    Living expenses?
[06:02] Jah
    What about gathering mana crystals
[06:03] Jah
    and restoring the Dark Realm?!
[06:07] Jah
    I don't have time for this...
[06:09] Jah
    Still, I need money to live.
[06:14] Jah
    Everyone served me in the Dark Realm,
[06:18] Jah
    so why must I serve humans in this one?
[06:21] Jah
    And what kind of cruel world is this
    that you cannot survive without money?
[06:27] Wom
    Good job tonight, Hy-chan.
[06:30] jah
    "Hy-chan"?!
[06:32] Jah
    A-Are you talking about me?
[06:35] Wom
    Yup! You're Jahy-chan,
    so "Hy-chan" for short.
[06:39] jah
    You dare infantilize my name?!
[06:41] jah
    This woman!
[06:42] jah
    If you didn't own this establishment,
    I'd tear you to shreds!
[06:45] Wom
    Goodness, that won't do, Hy-chan.
[06:50] Wom
    You need to smile.
[06:53] Wom
    See? Smile, smile!
[06:56] jah
    A feared woman in the Dark Realm
    such as myself
[06:59] jah
    would never grace humans with my smile!
[07:02] Wom
    It's important to put on
     a friendly face for the guests.
[07:05] Wom
    You looked so scary just now, Hy-chan.
[07:08] jah
    And whose fault was that?!
[07:15] jah
    Like... Like this?
[07:18] Wom
    Still a little awkward,
    but you're doing great!
[07:22] Wom
    What a good girl!
[07:23] Wom
    That's my Hy-chan!
[07:25] Wom
    Not long till closing time,
     so hang in there.
[07:29] jah
    The humiliation!
[07:31] jah
    That on top of ordering me to smile!
[07:35] jah
    I'll have you know I'm ages older than you!
[07:40] Guy
    Two drafts beers, please!
[07:42] Jah
    Coming!
[07:45] Wom
    Excuse me! Could we get some plates?
[07:48] Jah
    Right away!
[07:51] Man
    Check, please!
[07:54] Jah
    I'll be right with you!
[08:00] Jah
    Thank you for coming!
[08:02] guy
    I like your style, missy.
[08:05] guy
    Wanna come work at my place?
[08:06] Jah
    Just keep talking.
[08:08] Jah
    As soon as I've secured enough capital,
[08:10] Jah
    you'll be as significant
    as the dirt under my feet.
[08:14] Jah
    Curses. One cannot survive
    on bean sprouts alone.
[08:17] Jah
    I should've nibbled a potato or something.
[08:24] Jah
    Er... I'm taking a break...
[08:32] Jah
    The power drain is higher than normal too.
[08:35] Jah
    Please, just let me make
    it until I get home...
[08:44] Jah
    I didn't make it!
[08:47] Jah
    This is bad!
[08:48] Jah
    I can't let the boss see me like this!
[08:51] Boss
    You deceived me!
[08:53] Boss
    You cheat! You fraud!
[08:54] Boss
    You villain!
[08:55] Boss
    You're fired!
[08:57] Jah
    I can't have that!
[08:59] Jah
    If I can't work, I can't live...
    let alone gather mana crystals!
[09:03] Jah
    Please, mana crystal!
[09:05] Boss
    Are you okay, Hy-chan?
[09:12] Jah
    It's all over!
[09:16] Boos
    Hy-chan?
[09:17] ---
    Goodness!
[09:19] Boos
    You're so little!
[09:22] Jah
    I suppose the cat's out of the bag now.
[09:25] Jah
    I am Jahy,
[09:27] Jah
    the Dark Lord's right hand
[09:30] Jah
    and the second most powerful
    being in the Dark Realm!
[09:32] Jah
    I'm not like you human peons.
[09:35] Jah
    I spread calamity and
     misfortune wherever I go!
[09:39] Jah
    The hellfires of the Dark Realm
     burn like no other!
[09:42] Jah
    Shall I toss the likes of you into them?!
[09:49] Boss
    I'm so proud of you, Hy-chan!
[09:50] Boss
    You were so terrified of the burner before!
[09:55] Boss
    But you can handle the fires
     of the Dark Realm!
[09:58] Jah
    Silence!
[10:01] Jah
    I don't expect a mere human
    to be able to comprehend my power.
[10:08] Boss
    You're right.
[10:09] Boss
    I'm sure I can't even begin to imagine
    the suffering you've been through.
[10:13] Jah
    That's not what I meant!
[10:16] Jah
    Something's amiss.
[10:17] Jah
    Why doesn't this human tremble?
    Why isn't she stricken with fear?
[10:20] Jah
    It's not supposed to be like this.
[10:23] Jah
    So be it, then...
[10:25] Jah
    I should've done this from the start.
[10:30] Jah
    I'll have you disappear now!
[10:32] Jah
    And starting tomorrow,
    I shall be the new boss!
[10:49] Boss
    You've had it rough, huh?
[10:51] Boss
    You're always trying so hard.
[10:54] Boss
    You've done a great job.
[10:57] Boss
    If you ever have trouble,
    come talk to me anytime.
[11:01] Boss
    Being so small must mean
     all kinds of difficulty.
[11:08] Boss
    Oh, that reminds me...
[11:11] txt
    Pay
[11:12] Boss
    Here you go. For this month.
[11:19] Jah
    Damn it.
[11:20] Jah
    I need to gather mana crystals already
    and quit this dump as soon as possible!
[11:24] Jah
    Huh?
[11:25] Jah
    Isn't this more than usual?
[11:29] Boss
    You've just been working so hard.
[11:32] Boss
    I raised your hourly rate by 80 yen.
[11:34] Boss
    Buy yourself something
     nice and tasty, you hear?
[11:38] Boss
    You can also call it a night for today.
[11:40] Boss
    Wait one second though.
[11:45] Boss
    Here's some food for you.
[11:47] Boss
    Take it home to enjoy.
[11:50] Boss
    Will you be okay?
[11:52] Boss
    Can you make it home by yourself?
[11:54] Jah
    Yes.
[12:04] Jah
    I shan't be broken.
[12:06] Jah
    I will not let this break me!
[12:09] Jah
    That stupid cow!
[12:11] Jah
    Just because she gave me an 80-yen raise...
[12:13] Jah
    Just because I get to eat meat now...
[12:22] Jah
    It's been so long since I had meat.
[12:24] Jah
    It's super delicious.
[12:27] Jah
    Wait, what cause for celebration is there?!
[12:33] Jah
    I need to get my powers back!
[12:35] Jah
    I need to collect mana crystals
    and restore the Dark Realm without delay!
[12:50] land
    The jig's up!
[12:54] land
    Gimme my money!
[12:55] Jah
    Never!
[12:57] Jah
    You come around, month after month...
[13:00] Jah
    You're dogged, landlord!
[13:01] land
    Well, duh. I'm going round collecting rent.
[13:05] land
    You're the one who keeps refusing
    to pay month after month!
[13:08] land
    Give it a rest already.
[13:10] Jah
    It's preposterous that I,
    the Dark Realm's second-in-command,
[13:13] Jah
    should pay money to some dumb human girl!
[13:15] land
    You could be the second idiot
    of the Dark Realm for all I care.
[13:18] land
    That doesn't fly here!
[13:22] Jah
    Damn it!
[13:22] Jah
    She's got some cheek!
[13:24] Jah
    The boss and this girl...
    These two sisters are always slighting me!
[13:30] land
    If it wasn't for my sis asking a favor,
[13:32] land
    I'd never let such a shady
    character stay here!
[13:34] land
    You should be grateful.
[13:36] Jah
    I don't recall asking for this!
[13:38] Jah
    Who would ever voluntarily
    live in such a dump?!
[13:40] Jah
    It's not worth the rent.
[13:43] land
    Then get out.
[13:46] Jah
    No!
[13:47] Jah
    I don't want to live in a cardboard
    house by the river anymore!
[13:51] land
    Then pay up.
[13:53] Jah
    Never.
[13:54] Jah
    Fine, I get it! I'll pay! I'll pay!
[13:58] Jah
    What should I do?
[14:00] Jah
    How do I get by without paying rent?
[14:03] Nar
    The Great Jahy was beyond shameless.
[14:06] Jah
    O-Okay, I'll pay you the day after tomorrow.
[14:09] land
    No way.
[14:10] land
    You said that last month and then ran.
[14:13] Jah
    Then how about tomorrow?
[14:15] land
    Nope.
[14:18] Jah
    I can't pay today...
[14:21] Jah
    I'll pay! Today!
[14:23] Jah
    I'll pay right now!
[14:24] Jah
    I don't want to have to wash
    my face in the river again!
[14:27] Jah
    I can't take sleeping outside anymore!
[14:29] Jah
    I was wrong!
[14:32] Jah
    Damnation! Why is this happening to me?!
[14:35] Jah
    I did the lording in the Dark Realm,
[14:37] Jah
    and now I'm the one being lorded over...
[14:40] land
    Hurry it up.
[14:42] Jah
    I didn't want to resort to this,
    but I'm out of options.
[14:46] Jah
    I haven't eaten for two
    days now and if I pay rent,
[14:49] Jah
    So give up and piss off already!
[14:50] Jah
    I won't be able to eat again today...
[14:53] Jah
    At this rate, I'll shrivel up
     and die of starvation.
[15:01] Jah
    What?!
[15:03] Jah
    Here I am playing vulnerable for you...
[15:06] Jah
    What's with that attitude?!
[15:10] land
    That's what I'd like to ask you!
[15:13] land
    I know you got paid yesterday!
[15:17] land
    Give up and pay me already!
[15:19] Jah
    Never! Never! Never!
[15:23] land
    You little pain in the ass...
[15:25] land
    And damn you for taking
     this mess of trouble in, Sis!
[15:30] Jah
    Curses! How do I get out of this?
[15:33] Jah
    There must be a way.
[15:34] Jah
    Think... Think!
[15:38] Jah
    Boss? Boss, is that you?!
[15:40] Jah
    Save me!
[15:41] land
    S-Sis?!
[15:42] land
    Wait, it's not what it looks like!
[15:44] land
    She just refuses to pay her rent and...
[15:52] Jah
    Serves you right, buffoon!
[15:59] Jah
    I've made a clean getaway.
[16:06] land
    Quit yelling! You're disturbing
    the whole neighborhood!
[16:10] Jah
    You're yelling, too!
[16:12] land
    Shut up! Pay your rent!
[16:14] Jah
    Never! You flat-chested freak!
[16:17] Jah
    You think you'll ever see money out of me?!
[16:25] boss
    What are you two doing downtown?
[16:31] boss
    This just won't do, you two!
[16:33] boss
    Ryou-chan, you're her landlord.
[16:35] boss
    You need to be nice to Hy-chan.
[16:37] land
    What?
[16:38] land
    Clearly Ja-ko is at fault
    for not paying up!
[16:41] boss
    Hy-chan, what would you do
    if you didn't get your pay?
[16:44] Jah
    I'd burn you alive.
[16:46] boss
    Then go on and pay her, all right?
[16:54] boss
    There! Now you're friends again.
[16:56] land
    We never were friends!
[16:56] Jah
    What?!
[16:59] boss
    All right, all right.
[17:00] land
    See, you got me in trouble!
[17:03] Jah
    What? That was all your fault!
[17:08] Jah
    You may have cheated me
    out of my money this time,
[17:12] Jah
    but I am definitely not paying next month!
[17:15] land
    Just pay!
[17:17] Nar
    Thus the curtains drew on this battle...
[17:21] Nar
    for another month, at least.
[17:25] Jah
    It's not here...
[17:27] Jah
    Or here!
[17:29] Jah
    Or here!
[17:31] Jah
    My only mana crystal isn't here!
[17:35] Jah
    This is most serious.
[17:37] Jah
    If a human were to get a hold
     of my mana crystal,
[17:40] Jah
    it would wreak disaster
    that not even I couldn't contain.
[17:46] Jah
    In the worst case,
    it might even destroy the human world!
[17:50] Jah
    And I can't show up at work like this!
[17:56] Jah
    But if it's not here... maybe it's there?
[18:03] boss
    It's rare to see you here on your day off.
[18:07] boss
    As little Hy-chan, at that!
[18:09] Jah
    I'm only here to look for something!
[18:11] boss
    You're looking for something?
[18:13] Jah
    Yes.
[18:14] Jah
    A red stone about this big.
[18:16] Jah
    I need to find it at all costs.
[18:18] Jah
    I don't want any help from humans...
[18:21] Jah
    But this is an emergency.
[18:24] Jah
    Help me find it...
[18:26] Jah
    Please.
[18:27] boss
    Oh, I figured this was yours.
[18:31] boss
    I even put it on to make sure
     I didn't forget.
[18:34] Jah
    My mana crystal!
[18:38] boss
    Here you go.
[18:46] Jah
    Boss...
[18:47] Jah
    How long were you wearing this?
[18:49] boss
    Well, I found it after your shift last night.
[18:55] boss
    So since yesterday, I guess?
[18:57] Jah
    You've been wearing this for an entire day?
[19:00] boss
    Yes.
[19:03] Jah
    Mana crystals bestow power
    from the Dark Realm...
[19:07] Jah
    In human hands, they call forth
    all manner of misfortune.
[19:10] Jah
    If you wore it for a day,
[19:12] Jah
    the effects must have been quite pronounced.
[19:14] boss
    O-Oh, no...
[19:17] Jah
    I knew it. I was too late...
[19:19] boss
    So it's the mana crystal's
    fault that my shoulders
[19:22] boss
    have been really sore since yesterday?
[19:24] Jah
    What? Are you stupid?
[19:25] Jah
    Obviously these sacks of fat
    on your chest are to blame for that!
[19:28] Jah
    Do not ascribe such petty
    misfortune to my mana crystal!
[19:31] boss
    Gosh...
[19:33] Jah
    That's not even the kind of
    misfortune I'm talking about!
[19:35] Jah
    Something much worse must have happened!
[19:38] Jah
    Like your whole house burned down,
    or you were hit with some mysterious illness!
[19:42] boss
    You don't mean...
[19:44] boss
    It was the mana crystal's fault
    that I had such a hard time
[19:47] boss
    finding the remote control yesterday?!
[19:48] Jah
    Your misfortunes are minuscule!
[19:51] boss
    Even after I found it, it just barely worked.
[19:53] boss
    Was that the mana crystal?
[19:54] Jah
    You'll have to do better!
[19:56] boss
    What about my split ends?
[19:57] Jah
    Stop saying every little thing
    was the mana crystal's fault!
[20:01] Jah
    Was there nothing?!
[20:02] Jah
    Did any volcanoes erupt? Continents split?
    Were thousands of lives not put in danger?!
[20:06] boss
    Hmm....
[20:09] Jah
    Nothing?
[20:12] Jah
    Are you kidding me?
[20:14] Jah
    Is my mana crystal really so weak?
[20:18] boss
    I'm sorry.
[20:19] boss
    I wondered if it was yours,
    but I had no idea it was so important.
[20:24] Jah
    Well, it is!
[20:26] Jah
    This mana crystal is my last
    connection to the Dark Realm.
[20:29] Jah
    Besides,
[20:33] Jah
    without this stone, I can't even
    return to my original form.
[20:38] Jah
    Do you understand its importance now?!
[20:40] boss
    If it's that important to you,
    you need to take better care of it!
[20:44] Jah
    Huh?
[20:45] boss
    Do you know where I found that necklace?
[20:48] boss
    Under a chair in the staff room!
[20:51] Jah
    Oh, yeah...
[20:53] Jah
    When my powers ran out
    and I got food to take home...
[20:58] boss
    You were lucky you dropped it here.
[21:01] Jah
    But... B-But...
[21:03] boss
    No ifs, ands, or buts!
[21:08] boss
    Here. Turn around and I'll put it on for you.
[21:13] boss
    You can wear it while you work if you want.
[21:16] boss
    Just keep it tucked inside your shirt
    and make sure you don't drop it.
[21:19] boss
    No more losing it.
[21:21] boss
    You hear?
[21:22] Jah
    Yes.
[21:24] Jah
    Thank y...
[21:27] Jah
    I'm not thanking you!
[21:29] Jah
    I'll let you off easy today!
[21:31] Jah
    But mark my words! Terrible misfortune
     will befall you sooner or later!
[21:36] Jah
    You had best prepare yourself!
[21:38] Jah
    Don't forget to lock up!
[21:41] boss
    In truth...
[21:43] (Flashback) boss
    This is this Hy-chan's, isn't it?
[21:50] (Flashback) boss
    Transform!
[21:52] boss
    My sister happened to see me right then.
[21:55] (Flashback) land
    The hell are you doing?
[21:58] boss
    To make matters worse,
    I hit my knee really hard.
[22:01] boss
    Was it the curse of the
    mana crystal... I wonder?
[22:05] boss
    It was too embarrassing to tell her though.
[22:09] Jah
    I'm so glad...
[22:12] Jah
    I'm so glad I found it.
[22:15] Jah
    I haven't been this happy in ages!
[22:18] Nar
    The Great Jahy reveled in her happiness,
[22:20] Nar
    but it wouldn't take long to realize
     she was right back at square one.
[22:22] Nar
    She was not a single step closer
    to restoring the Dark Realm.
[22:29] Jah
    Wait, what am I so happy about?!
