[00:05] ---
    I'm back...
[00:08] ---
    Welcome home!
[00:12] ---
    Oh my! You're much more
    worn-out than usual!
[00:15] ---
    You think so?
[00:18] ---
    Tomorrow's Sunday, so you can
    relax as much as you want!
[00:22] ---
    Oh. I have to go to work early tomorrow, too.
[00:26] ---
    Goodness! But why?
    Why must you work on a day off?!
[00:33] ---
    Yeah... I wonder why...
[00:37] ---
    It's making you cry?!
[00:59] ---

[02:11] ---
    "Episode 4: Why must you work on a day off!?"
[02:14] ---
    If you keep this up, it
    will be the end of you.
[02:18] ---
    Is there no way for you to take time off?
[02:20] ---
    Some people have it much worse than me.
[02:23] ---
    I don't think that's the problem.
[02:26] ---
    It's okay. Thanks to you,
    I've really been able to relax lately.
[02:33] ---
    Over-sleeping is a problem, though.
[02:36] ---
    I've got to set my alarm.
[02:41] ---
    I've been thinking...
[02:44] ---
    Is it not difficult to be awoken
    by such a crude thing?
[02:47] ---
    Oh! I know how you can
    wake up feeling splendid!
[02:51] ---
    I'll use all of my love to
    gently bring you out of slumber!
[02:55] ---
    You have to actually wake me up, though.
[02:58] ---
    Of course I will!
    Why would you say such a thing?
[03:02] ---
    Don't you worry!
[03:04] ---
    Old people are used to getting up early!
[03:07] ---
    Is that part of getting older?
[03:10] ---
    I just kind of... wake up.
[03:13] ---
    I can't tell if you're more like
    a little girl or an old woman.
[03:18] ---
    Okay, I'll leave it to you, then.
[03:23] ---
    Mm!
[03:26] ---
    I'm wiped out...
[03:30] ---
    Are you okay?
[03:48] ---
    Fluffy-fluff...
[03:51] ---
    Mm...
[03:54] ---
    Goodness! The way he resists
    my pampering sometimes.
[03:57] ---
    It actually makes things more difficult.
[04:00] ---
    And yet... that's what makes him so adorable.
[04:21] ---
    Ooh! What beautiful weather!
[04:24] ---
    A perfect day for drying laundry!
[04:31] ---
    Oh, yes. I need to wake him up, don't I?
[04:40] ---
    He's sleeping so peacefully.
    It feels cruel to wake him.
[04:46] ---
    But it must be done!
[04:50] ---
    Kuroto, morning is here.
    Do you think you can get up?
[04:59] ---
    Did you sleep well?
[05:03] ---
    Let... Let me sleep a little more.
[05:10] ---
    You have things to do today!
[05:14] ---
    Just five more minutes.
[05:17] ---
    All right! I'll wake you up in five minutes.
[05:21] ---
    Thank you...
[05:23] ---
    so much...
[05:34] ---
    Could it be...
    Do the mornings make him weak?!
[05:40] ---
    He's usually so stubborn
    about being pampered...
[05:44] ---
    Now's my chance!
[05:46] ---
    Wait, don't I have work today?
[05:52] ---
    You work so hard,
    even on days you should have off.
[05:58] ---
    I don't want to work. I want to sleep.
[06:02] ---
    You should relax, at least for today.
[06:05] ---
    Mm.
[06:08] ---
    I-I love it! It's so much fun
    when he just lets me pamper him!
[06:18] ---
    I should get up...
[06:20] ---
    It's Sunday. There's no need
    to wake up or do work!
[06:26] ---
    You're right.
[06:28] ---
    It'd be silly to work on a day off!
[06:31] ---
    Mm.
[06:32] ---
    You just sleep all you want.
[06:38] ---
    I think I'll go back to sleep, too!
[06:40] ---
    Let us indulge in some deep sleeping-in!
[06:43] ---
    Huh?
[06:45] ---
    Here's my tail! You can
    fluff it all you want!
[06:50] ---
    Fluffy-fluff...?
[06:52] ---
    Mm-hmm!
[06:54] ---
    Fluffy-fluff...!
[07:00] ---
    Mm!
[07:23] ---
    Huh? Why is it so late?
[07:25] ---
    How long was I asleep?
[07:28] ---
    Oh, man! It's too late to go to work now.
[07:32] ---
    Didn't Senko promise to wake me up?
[07:35] ---
    Are you up?
[07:37] ---
    You slept so well. You little baby.
[07:43] ---
    "Kuroto remembers what happened"
[07:47] ---
    Ah, no, that was just...
[07:51] ---
    You should act that way all the time!
[07:54] ---
    I don't think so...
[07:57] ---
    Please forget about this morning.
[08:00] ---
    Nope!
[08:01] ---
    Please forget it!
[08:03] ---
    Not a chance! That's how you should act.
[08:08] ---
    I can't. I'll get back to normal tomorrow.
[08:13] ---
    Why?
[08:15] ---
    I've got to make up for today...
[08:18] ---
    Both at work, and as a person.
[08:21] ---
    Do you really?
[08:29] ---
    Don't rush things, okay?
[08:31] ---
    Okay.
[08:32] ---
    Mm!
[08:34] ---
    Well then, I'll wake you up
    tomorrow morning!
[08:38] ---
    I'll get up myself.
[08:39] ---
    No, no, I'll definitely wake you up tomorrow!
[08:42] ---
    It's fine, I'll get up myself.
[08:46] ---
    I won't let you go back to sleep this time!
[08:50] ---
    Your eyes are scary...
[08:52] ---
    Eep!
[08:57] ---
    Ah!
[08:58] ---
    You don't need to rely on that thing, okay?
[09:01] ---
    I'm going to do my very best
    to wake you up, so leave it to me!
[09:07] ---
    All right.
[09:08] ---
    Mm!
[09:13] ---
    I'm going to do my very best tomorrow, too,
[09:16] ---
    so let me fluff your tail a bit more today.
[09:19] ---
    You've already done plenty of fluffing.

[09:35] ---
    Senko, is that fox-fire?
[09:38] ---
    Mm-hmm, that's right!
[09:40] ---
    So you don't use stoves?
[09:42] ---
    Stoves, eh? I'm sure they have their use,
[09:46] ---
    but with fox-fire, I have
    complete control over the flame.
[09:51] ---
    You use it as a light sometimes, too.
[09:54] ---
    Oh, that's just a habit.
[09:56] ---
    Isn't it dangerous?
[09:58] ---
    You've nothing to worry about!
[10:00] ---
    I've been using fox-fire for over 800 years!
[10:04] ---
    No matter the style of
    stove, hearth, or bath,
[10:08] ---
    I can handle them all!
[10:11] ---
    Or that's what I'd planned to say.
    It's not exactly necessary here.
[10:17] ---
    Yeah, it's all handled by machines now.
[10:20] ---
    Indeed, times have changed.
[10:24] ---
    Still, I don't want to get out of practice.
[10:28] ---
    And most of all, this flame...
[10:34] ---
    ...is the flame of my burning love! Mm!
[10:39] ---
    Here!
[10:42] ---
    And we're saving money on the gas bill!
[10:45] ---
    What a bore.

[11:00] ---
    The rainy season has come again.
[11:05] ---
    All this rain and humidity
    really wears you out.
[11:09] ---
    I miss the sun.
[11:11] ---
    It doesn't bother me.
[11:18] ---
    Ooh! It's raining pretty hard.
[11:21] ---
    Can you do anything about it, Senko?
[11:24] ---
    Control the weather?
[11:26] ---
    Well, it's not easy, but...
[11:27] ---
    I'm just joking... You
    can actually do it, huh?
[11:31] ---
    Of course!
[11:32] ---
    If it's too humid, you can use the AC.
[11:36] ---
    AC?
[11:37] ---
    It's up there on the wall.
[11:39] ---
    Oh, that?
[11:41] ---
    We talked about it before.
    Do you know how to use it?
[11:46] ---
    I'm not really used to it...
[11:49] ---
    Machines are the one thing
    that throw you off, huh?
[11:52] ---
    How cute! Just like an old woman.
[11:55] ---
    Don't treat me like an old person.
[11:58] ---
    But you said you were yourself.
[12:02] ---
    It's fine for me to say that,
    but not for you!
[12:07] ---
    Okay, then. Well, I'm off!
[12:10] ---
    Okay!
[12:13] ---
    See you later!
[12:18] ---
    Machines, huh?
[12:20] ---
    Maybe I'll give them a try.

    It's just like fox-magic!

    --Stop! Stop it, you! Eep! Be quiet! Eep!

    I'll settle things with you later.
[13:37] ---
    I don't need these silly machines!
    I can handle cleaning myself!
[13:45] ---
    This is unacceptable.
    What would Kuroto think?
[13:49] ---
    You're totally useless.

    "*Nakano is not actually like this."

    Is what he'd say.
[14:00] ---
    Snap out of it! He wouldn't say that!
[14:08] ---
    Oh, yes! Laundry!
    There's the washing machine!
[14:13] ---
    So, you'll take care of laundry for me?

    Oh no, I'm getting dizzy.
[14:51] ---
    Ooh, is it done?

    That was fast!
