You're not going to eat any lunch?

Y-Y-Yuri-chan! You scared me!
**[04:27] Yuri**
You're hiding something.
**[04:28] Saku**
Huh?!

Senpai, you shouldn't access

**[04:37] Yuri**
The world's largest cat?
**[04:41] Yuri**
Why're you looking up something like that?
**[04:44] Yuri**
Whoa! So big!
**[04:46] Saku**
These are Maine Coon cats.
**[04:48] Saku**
Actually, I've been taking care of a cat myself.
**[04:50] Saku**
I was just wondering how
big they normally get.
**[04:56] Yuri**
Senpai, that's pretty careless of you.
**[04:58] Saku**
Huh? Wh-What do you mean?!
**[05:01] Yuri**
They say if you get
a pet while living alone,
**[05:03] Yuri**
you ruin your chances at marriage!
**[05:05] Saku**
Huh? Why do you keep bringing
marriage into the conversation?!
**[05:08] Employee 1**
Shibasaki-san.
**[05:10] Employee 1**
They moved up the afternoon
meeting by thirty minutes.
**[05:14] Yuri**
Huh?!
**[05:15] Employee 1**
Sorry!
**[05:17] Saku**
I should eat my lunch.
**[05:20] Yuri**
Oh, Senpai! Your cat!
**[05:22] Saku**
Yes?!
**[05:24] Yuri**
Let me know if taking care
of your cat is too much for you.
**[05:27] Yuri**
I bet my parents will
take it in if I ask them.
**[05:30] Saku**
Oh. Thanks a lot.
**[05:37] Saku**
Now, time for lunch...
**[05:57] Saku; Internal**
* If taking care of my cat*
* is too much for me, huh?*
**[06:05] Saku; Internal**
*I guess it could be...*
**[06:11] Saku**
I'm home!
**[06:13] Saku**
Yukichi? Hey, Yukichi!
**[06:25] Saku; Internal**
*Well, maybe if my cat was a normal cat.*
**[06:34] Saku**
Jeez!
**[06:36] Saku**
You're cleaning in the dark again!
**[06:38] Saku**
I keep telling you to do it
with the lights on!
**[06:42] Saku**
Are you mad about something?
**[06:46] Saku**
I'm home too late?
**[06:48] Saku**
Isn't this the normal time I get home?

*I was waiting for you all evening.*
**[07:08] Saku**
I'll eat it now!
**[07:15] Saku**
Now, this is happiness!
**[07:18] Saku**
I feel so sleepy now.
**[07:21] Saku**
Sleepy...
**[07:49] Saku**
It's hot!
**[07:50] Saku**
Hot! Hot! Hot! Hot!
**[07:53] Saku**
You cruel cat!
**[08:16] Saku**
I feel completely, totally revived!
**[08:18] Saku**
Oh! Lunch was delicious as usual, Yukichi!
**[08:22] Saku**
Thanks for making lunch every day!
**[08:25] Saku**
Now that I've washed up,
I totally want a beer!
**[08:32] Saku**
Are these fried chicken and cheese strips?!
**[08:35] Saku**
Yukichi, can I eat these?!
**[08:39] Saku**
I can't?
**[08:41] Saku**
They're for tomorrow's lunch?
**[08:44] Saku**
I see. I guess it can't be helped.
**[08:47] Saku**
They look so good, but I'll
have to wait until tomorrow.
**[08:51] Saku**
I see. They're for lunch...
**[08:56] Saku**
Huh? You'll make me something else?
**[08:58] Saku**
I'll go dry my hair really quick!
**[09:02] Saku**
Wow! The delicious smell of cheese!
**[09:07] Saku**
They look so freaking good!
**[09:08] Saku**
Thanks, Yukichi!
**[09:10] Saku**
Thank you for the meal!
**[09:15] Saku**
There's edamame in them, too.
**[09:17] Saku**
What a forbidden flavor!
**[09:22] Saku**
You've completely won me over
via my stomach already,
**[09:29] (Flashback) Yuri**
People say that if you get
a pet while living alone,
**[09:31] (Flashback) Yuri**
you ruin your chances at marriage!
**[09:33] Saku**
Huh?
**[09:38] Saku; Internal**
*Who the heck cares?!*
**[09:43] Saku**
Yukichi! Another beer!
**[09:52] Saku**

Can't breathe!
**[11:00] Saku**
I don't wanna go to work!
**[11:02] Saku**
I don't wanna work!
**[11:04] Saku**
I have a meeting with the general
manager first thing in the morning,
**[11:07] Saku**
but I don't have all the documents ready!
**[11:09] Saku**
I mean, why do we have to have so
many meetings every day anyways?
**[11:13] Saku**
I'll definitely have to work overtime again.
**[11:15] Saku**
Can't we just give all these progress
reports through our smartphones?!
**[11:19] Saku**
What's the point of making
printouts at every single step?
**[11:23] Saku**
And the trains are always packed!
**[11:25] Saku**
It hurts!
**[11:27] Saku**
The trains are full of drunks, too!
**[11:29] Saku**
I really wanna quit!
**[11:33] Saku**
Yukichi!
**[11:34] Saku**
You're my only ally...

My family's previous cat
used to use it. Please take it.

Yuri-chan gave this to me, but...
**[15:05] Saku; Internal**
*A-A helmet?!*
**[15:08] Saku**
I-It was unavoidable. Yuri-chan has
never seen you, Yukichi.

Hey, Yukichi?
**[15:21] Saku**
That's impossible!

Hm? What's this paper bag for?
**[15:41] Saku**
Huh? No way.
**[15:43] Saku**
Is this to thank Yuri-chan for the chigura?
**[15:45] Saku**
Wow. Madeleines!
**[15:47] Saku**
Oh, you're too much!
**[15:49] Saku**
You're such a thoughtful cat, Yukichi!

Y-Yeah...
**[16:06] Yuri**
Oh, are these handmade?
**[16:09] Saku**
Th-That's right.
**[16:11] Yuri**
That's amazing!

Oh, do you like homemade desserts?
**[16:14] Yuri**
I'm so happy!

Wow! Fukuzawa-san can even bake sweets?
**[16:20] Glasses Manager**
Such strong home-making skills!
**[16:21] Saku**
Th-That's not true!
**[16:23] Yuri**
They're delicious!
**[16:25] Glasses Manager**
Fukuzawa, you always bring your lunch, too.
**[16:27] Male Employee 1**
You'll make a great wife.
**[16:28] Saku**
Uh, no! That's...
**[16:28] Female Employee 1**
Goodness, sir! You should
make your own lunches yourself!
***SIGN*** Make your own lunches yourself~ (LOL)
**[16:35] Saku; Internal**
*I-It's hard to tell them I didn't do it...*
**[16:35] Glasses Manager**
That's true.
**[16:36] Female Employee 1**
That's the least you can do!
**[16:38] Male Employee 1**
Maybe I should try making
my own lunches, too.
**[16:40] Saku**
No! I-I-I really can't cook at all!
**[16:42] Yuri**
What are you talking about?
You're plenty good at it!
**[16:43] Female Employee 1**
If you consider yourself a bad cook,
the rest of us are completely worthless.
**[16:47] Saku**
No, no, no, no...
**[16:47] Yuri**
So true! So true!
**[16:49] Saku**
I mean, it was my cat that...

*"It was my cat that baked that!"*

*Huh? What are you saying?*
**[16:57] Female Employee 1**
*Huh? Is Fukuzawa-san an oddball type?*
**[17:02] Saku**
I-I baked them!
**[17:04] Yuri**
Huh? Did you spike them with something?
**[17:07] Saku**
I looked up the recipe online...
**[17:08] Yuri**
Huh?!
**[17:10] Saku; Internal**
*I've become such a blatant liar!*
**[17:12] Saku; Internal**
*I'm sorry, Yukichi!*
**[17:15] Saku; Internal**
* I mean, something like that's*
* normally impossible.*
**[17:18] Saku; Internal**
* A cat shouldn't be able to do*
* all the housework for me.*
**[17:21] Saku; Internal**
*Why didn't I think of that until now?*
**[17:24] Saku**
Okay!
**[17:25] Saku; Internal**
*I'll just keep quiet about Yukichi.*
**[17:29] Orizuka**
Is your cat doing well?
**[17:32] Orizuka**
These are the documents

B-B-Before that!
**[17:58] Orizuka**
Your cat?
**[17:59] Saku**
Yes!
**[18:00] Saku**
It's true that I have a cat...
**[18:03] Orizuka**
Well, you mentioned your
cat earlier, so I thought...
**[18:07] Orizuka**
Thanks.
**[18:08] Saku**
Huh? How did you know about my cat, Chief?
**[18:13] Orizuka**
I met him before.
**[18:17] Orizuka**
Sorry, I have a call.

When she brought such a weak kitten

**[20:34] Mei**
I was worried you wouldn't make it.

A masterful cat knows.
**[23:13] Yukichi**
The calcium necessary for health
and growth is hard to absorb.
**[23:18] Yukichi**
So adding foods with vitamin D
helps with absorption.
**[23:23] Yukichi**
I recommend sockeye salmon
and maitake mushrooms.

*It's sad, but this is fate.*
**[02:12] Yukichi**
*However...*
**[02:15] Yukichi**
*I made my decision that day.*
**[02:34] Yukichi**
*On that snowy night...*
**[02:43] Yukichi**
* If this human hadn't taken me home,*
* I would not have remained in this world.*
**[02:55] Yukichi**
*Even if...*
**[02:57] (Flashback) Saku**
Okay! This is your new home from now on!
**[03:01] Yukichi**
* ...she's the type of human*
* whose home is filled with trash!*
**[03:08] Saku**
Yukichi, let me rub your belly...
**[03:11] Yukichi**
* Even if she's the type of human*
* who drools as she passes out!*
**[03:19] Yukichi**
*I made my decision.*
**[03:22] Yukichi**
* I will use the full extent of my magnificent*
* skills and wisdom as a masterful cat...*
**[03:35] Yukichi**
*to ensure tomorrow's cat can!*
**[03:41] Yukichi**
*This exasperatingly worthless human*
**[03:45] Yukichi**
*must stay healthy for that very reason.*
**[03:57] Saku**
Yukichi... Another beer...
**[04:07] Saku**
Yukichi, you're heavy...

So cute!
**[06:13] Saku**
It's a picture of Yukichi
when he was a kitten!
**[06:16] Saku**
It's already been three years, huh?
**[06:18] Saku**
Isn't that right?
**[06:23] Saku**
Yukichi! We need to talk.
**[06:39] Saku**
I keep missing the right
moment to bring this up.
**[06:42] Saku**
Yukichi...
**[06:44] Saku**
Why'd you grow so big?
**[06:47] Saku**
You're more like the size of a bear now!
**[06:50] Saku**
Hey!
**[06:52] Saku**
Where are you going, Yukichi?!
**[06:57] Saku**
No!
**[06:57] Saku**
I'm not worried that you're too fat!
**[07:00] Saku**
I don't know if your body fat percentage
could even be compared with other cats...
**[07:08] Saku**
I mean, I never had a cat before.
**[07:13] Saku**
That's why I thought you were
a bit bigger than expected...
**[07:17] Saku**
But I don't think your size is normal!
**[07:20] Saku**
First of all, I don't think normal cats
can cook, clean, and do laundry.
**[07:25] Saku**
I don't think they make lunches
or take out the trash, either!
**[07:30] Saku**
You always check the weather and
make sure I have an umbrella, too!
**[07:33] Saku**
And you keep the tub warm for me!
**[07:35] Saku**
And a lot of other things!
Uh, so, in other words...
**[07:40] Saku**
Thank you for always taking care of me!
**[07:44] Saku**
I got off track!
**[07:46] Saku**
D-Do you know the reason
why you got so big, Yukichi?
**[07:53] Saku**
Yukichi?
**[07:55] Saku**
*Thanks, Yukichi...*
**[08:02] (Flashback) Saku**
I'm really thankful.
**[08:07] (Flashback) Saku**
Thank goodness I have you, Yukichi.
**[08:13] Saku**
Hey, Yukichi?
**[08:17] Saku**
I see.
**[08:19] Saku**
I wonder why?
**[08:20] Saku**
I tried searching the internet,
but I couldn't figure it out either!
**[08:25] Saku**
Well, I guess we'll just never know.
**[08:28] Saku**
It's probably fine.
**[08:30] Saku**
We've been living together
just fine until now.
**[08:33] Saku**
It's probably not a big deal
that the chief met you...
**[08:41] (Flashback) Orizuka**
I met him before.
**[08:45] Saku; Internal**
* Now that I think about it,*
* the chief was really calm about it.*
**[08:49] Saku; Internal**
* He didn't act like he saw*
* an impossibly large cat.*
**[08:53] Saku; Internal**
* I don't remember it, but he might've*
* visited my place when Yukichi was a kitten.*
**[09:01] Saku; Internal**
* So he visited this place soon*
* after I picked up Yukichi?*
**[09:07] Saku**
No way!

The chief might've visited before!
**[09:19] Saku**
Here! Around the time I picked you up!
**[09:31] (Flashback) Saku**
Welcome to my humble abode!
**[09:38] Saku**
Yukichi!
**[09:39] Saku**
Don't collapse just from thinking about it!
**[09:43] Saku**
You know, I really did feel bad about it.
**[09:46] Saku**
This place was... a little...
pretty... super messy...
**[09:55] Saku**
I'm sorry! It was a completely trashed house!
**[10:00] Saku**
Maybe you were infected with an unknown
bacterium produced by the sea of garbage here
**[10:05] Saku**

Ouch.
**[10:13] Saku**
It's useless now.
I can't show my face at work now.
**[10:16] Saku**
I don't think I'll be able to talk
with the chief normally anymore.
**[10:20] Saku**
Of all people, why Chief Orizuka?!
**[10:22] Saku**
Did you know there are rumors he has OCD?
**[10:24] Saku**
No! No! No!
**[10:26] Saku**
What kind of person did
he see me as until now?!
**[10:30] Saku**
No way.
**[10:31] Saku**
I'm going to die from embarrassment...

About the estimate last week...
**[17:00] Saku**
A large serving of roast pork?!
Sounds good!
**[17:04] Orizuka**
No, I was talking about the estimate
for Company C last week.
**[17:08] Saku**
Huh?
**[17:09] Orizuka**
You managed it right before the deadline,
and it helped tremendously.
**[17:13] Orizuka**
There were no mistakes in the calculations,
and the client was very satisfied.
**[17:17] Orizuka**
We got the contract smoothly because of you.
**[17:20] Orizuka**
When you first joined,
you always kept your eyes down.
**[17:22] Orizuka**
I didn't think you'd be very dependable,
but you're completely different now.
**[17:28] Saku**
Huh?
**[17:29] Saku**
H-Have I really changed that much?
**[17:32] Orizuka**
Yeah. Your complexion is a lot better, too.
**[17:36] Orizuka**
Is it all thanks to that cat?
**[17:39] Saku**
No!
**[17:40] Female Employee**
Huh? What's going on?!
**[17:42] Orizuka**
Wh-What was that for?
**[17:45] Saku**
Ch-Ch-Ch-Chief, you really do know about my cat.
**[17:49] Saku**
When? When did you visit my place?
**[17:52] Orizuka**
You don't remember?
**[17:56] Saku**
No.
**[17:57] Orizuka**
Let me say this first.
I didn't go because I wanted to.
**[18:06] Orizuka**
A little after you started working here,
**[18:09] Orizuka**
I happened to see you completely
drunk at a pub on the way home.
**[18:13] Orizuka**
When I asked you if you
could make it home so drunk...
**[18:16] Orizuka**
You vomited, and I was kicked
out of the pub with you.
**[18:21] Orizuka**
Shall I continue?
**[18:22] Saku**
Chief! Please give me thirty seconds
to breathe and center myself!
**[18:27] Narration**
*He waited thirty seconds.*
**[18:32] Orizuka**
I ended up taking you home...
**[18:35] (Flashback) Orizuka**
Hey, don't fall asleep!
**[18:37] (Flashback) Orizuka**
We're here. Where's your key?
**[18:38] (Flashback) Orizuka**
Is someone home?
**[18:40] (Flashback) Saku**
Yeah!
**[18:41] (Flashback) Orizuka**
Then, I'll ring the doorbell.
**[18:43] (Flashback) Saku**
I have a cute cat!
**[18:45] (Flashback) Orizuka**
A pet?
**[18:48] (Flashback) Orizuka**
Looks like we need the key.
**[18:51] (Flashback) Saku**
Okay!
**[18:54] (Flashback) Saku**
Um? Where's my bag?
**[18:57] (Flashback) Orizuka**
Hey, now...
**[19:10] Orizuka; Internal**
*Did the cat just open the door?*
**[19:13] Orizuka; Internal**
*No way...*
**[19:15] Orizuka; Internal**
* Fukuzawa-san must have*
* forgotten to lock her door.*

*Did the cat just...?!*
**[19:29] Orizuka; Internal**
*I must be pretty drunk myself...*
**[19:32] Orizuka; Internal**
*I should go home and sleep.*
**[19:35] Orizuka**
And that's what happened.
**[19:36] Saku**
I wish you told me about all of this sooner.
**[19:39] Orizuka**
You never asked about it.
**[19:41] Saku**
I don't remember it at all.
**[19:45] Saku**
B-But, according to what you said...
**[19:48] Saku**
Y-You only saw the entryway
before you went home, right?
**[19:52] Saku**
I mean, you didn't see anything inside?
**[20:02] Orizuka**
Don't worry.
**[20:03] Orizuka**
No man would get any ideas about doing
anything to you in a place full of trash.
**[20:08] Saku; Internal**
*He definitely saw!*
**[20:12] Saku**
I know it's late, but please
allow me to make it up to you!
**[20:17] Orizuka**
There's no need.
**[20:18] Orizuka**
I was just a superior taking care of
one of my subordinates. That's all.
**[20:21] Saku**
Please let me do something.
I'll even run errands for you!
**[20:27] Orizuka**
Errands?
**[20:28] Saku**
I don't feel comfortable doing nothing!
**[20:31] Orizuka**
Oh, that's right. This month...
**[20:33] Orizuka**
Then can I ask for a favor?
**[20:36] Saku**
O-Of course! What can I do?
**[20:40] Orizuka**
I want you to go to the aquarium with me
on the last Sunday of the month.
**[20:50] Saku**
Huh?
**[20:53] Saku**
I'm home, Yukichi!
**[20:55] Saku**
Oh, I'm not hungry yet.
**[20:56] Saku**
I'll wash up first.
**[20:58] Saku**
And, I'm going to go out
on the last Sunday of the month.
**[21:02] Saku**
Why are you so surprised
I'd have plans on the weekend?
**[21:05] Saku**
Well, somehow I ended up agreeing
to go to the aquarium with my chief
**[21:12] Saku**
The sea slug idol group UMYU-Sea

**[21:19] Saku**

I'm a worthless human being that can't even
take care of myself without you, Yukichi!
***SIGN*** The place last week
***SIGN*** Just remembered
**[05:16] Saku**
On top of that...
**[05:18] Saku**
The people at my company
are starting to think
**[05:20] Saku**
that I'm the type of woman
that's good at cooking.
**[05:24] (Flashback) Female Employee 1**
Wow! Fukuzawa-san can even bake sweets?
**[05:28] Glasses Manager**
Such strong home-making skills!
**[05:30] Glasses Manager**
Fukuzawa, you always bring your lunch, too.
**[05:31] Male Employee 1**
You'll make a great wife.
**[05:34] Saku**
I really can't cook at all!
**[05:35] (Flashback) Female Employee 1**
If you consider yourself a bad cook,
the rest of us are completely worthless.
**[05:37] Yuri**
So good...
**[05:39] Yuri**
Senpai! Please become my wife!
**[05:40] (Flashback) Saku**
No, no, no, no.
**[05:42] Saku**
I want to close the gap between
fact and fiction as much as I can
**[05:45] Saku**
before anyone finds out!
**[05:49] Saku**
And, so!
**[05:51] Saku**
I want to become skilled enough
to make my own lunches!
***SIGN*** Homemade Food Even Monkeys Can Make
**[05:58] Saku**
Please take care of me!
**[06:02] Saku**
But I really need to start
with something super simple.
***SIGN*** Plain TKG (Tamago-Kake-Gohan) A simple bowl of rice with raw egg. [How to Make] 1: Crack a raw egg over a bowl of rice. 2: Drizzle soy sauce over it. 3: Add topping.
***SIGN*** Rice Balls
Soul Food
1: Spread rice on some plastic wrap.
2: Place filling in the center.
(Don't overfill!)
3: Gather the plastic wrap like a drawstring purse
and shape the rice ball in your hands.
4: Wrap with seaweed.
***SIGN*** Plain rice
with raw egg.
**[06:11] Saku**
Huh? This?!
**[06:15] Saku**
Isn't this a bit hard?
**[06:17] Saku**
I have to crack an egg, right?
**[06:25] Saku**
No! No! I'm kidding!
**[06:27] Saku**
No way. No way.
**[06:29] Saku**
Even I can crack an egg! Bring it on!
**[06:39] Saku**
Okay! I have an egg!
**[06:51] Saku**
Now what?!
***SIGN*** Crack a raw
egg over a
bowl of rice.
***SIGN*** Drizzle soy
sauce over it.
***SIGN*** Add
topping.
**[07:08] Saku**
Hold on!
**[07:11] Saku**
That's the only explanation
they have for step one?!
**[07:14] Saku**
How do I crack an egg?!
***SIGN*** Crack a raw
egg over a
bowl of rice.
**[07:16] Saku**
How is this something
even monkeys can make?!
***SIGN*** Crack
**[07:45] Saku**
Tiny shell bits are all
over it like a topping!
**[07:49] Saku**
A-A little calcium never hurts.
**[07:51] Saku**
No, wait. Egg shells are dangerous
because of salmo-something right?
**[08:01] Saku**
Huh?
**[08:06] Saku**
Yukichi, you're amazing!
**[08:07] Saku**
You can hold chopsticks
so well with those paws.
**[08:13] Saku**
How're you doing that?
**[08:17] Saku**
It's done!
**[08:19] Saku**
Plain raw egg over rice!
**[08:22] Saku**
Amazing! It's the real thing!
***SIGN*** Glowing
**[08:24] Saku**
This is the first time I've made
something other than cup ramen!
***SIGN*** Eyes filled with pity
**[08:32] Saku**
It looks so good!
***SIGN*** Drip...
**[09:00] Saku**
Something...
**[09:01] Saku**
Isn't there something easier than this?!
**[09:05] Saku**
Something where I don't need to
crack eggs or pour soy sauce?
**[09:12] Saku**
Come to think of it, did we
always have a cookbook like this?
***SIGN*** Hamburg Steak
**[09:17] Saku**
I never bought something like this.
**[09:20] Saku**
And you cook without looking at recipes, Yukichi...
**[09:26] Saku**
But I feel like I've eaten
everything in this book before.
**[09:38] Saku**
Isn't this all the food you used to make
for me when you were a kitten?!
**[09:50] Saku**
Why'd you hide?
**[09:52] Saku**
It's nothing to be embarrassed about!
**[09:56] Saku**
How nostalgic!
**[09:58] Saku**
I completely forgot about it since you
started cooking like a pro so quickly!
**[10:04] Saku**
You looked at every one of these
recipes and cooked them one by one.
**[10:09] Saku**
Hey, Yukichi!
**[10:12] Saku**
I want to eat this again!
**[10:16] Saku**
Rice balls were the first things
you ever made for me!
**[10:32] Saku**
They look so good!
**[10:34] Saku**
You're so good at making
triangles with those paws.
**[10:37] Saku**
How're you doing that?
**[10:41] Saku**
* Afterwards, Yukichi turned the failed*
* raw egg over rice into rice porridge.*
***SIGN*** Crack

It's fine! It's not bad enough that

**[00:10] Saku**
What is it, Yukichi?
**[00:13] Saku**
I had to work on my day off yesterday.
**[00:16] Saku**
Lemme sleep today...
**[00:24] Saku**
That idol event is on
the last Sunday of the month...
**[00:32] Saku**
Sunday...
**[00:39] (Flashback) Orizuka**
Oh, that's right. This month...
**[00:42] (Flashback) Orizuka**
Then, can I ask for a favor?
**[00:44] (Flashback) Saku**
O-Of course! What can I do?
**[00:47] (Flashback) Orizuka**
I want you to go to the aquarium with me
on the last Sunday of the month.
**[00:53] Saku**
It's today!

Ouch!

Thank goodness. I can still make it.

Thanks!
**[02:48] Saku**
Uh, we're meeting up at 14:00.
**[02:52] Saku**
So, I'll head out a little after 13:00.
**[02:56] Saku**
What's this smell? How nostalgic.
**[03:01] Yukichi**
*Celebratory sekihan.*
**[03:03] Saku**
You're wrong!
**[03:04] Saku**
This really isn't a date or anything!
**[03:09] Saku**
I'll still eat it, though.
**[03:11] Saku**
I'm just accompanying him to
this event because he asked!
**[03:17] Saku**
Another serving!
**[03:19] Saku**
This is like an extension of work.
**[03:21] Saku**
Are you listening?
**[03:25] Saku**
But would it be weird if
I wore a suit to the aquarium?
**[03:31] Saku**
It's my day off...

**[03:46] Saku**
H-How many years has it been

**[03:56] Saku**
If only I didn't have to work yesterday!
**[04:00] Saku**
No, I would have slept. I'm sure of it.
**[04:02] Saku**
Oh! This!
**[04:04] Saku**
It's a dress I wore years ago to
a coworker's wedding reception!
**[04:08] Saku**
Won't this work?
**[04:09] Saku**
It's not a formal dress. Luck is on my side!
**[04:15] Saku**
Meat is also on my side...
**[04:19] Saku**
Yukichi!
**[04:27] Saku**
Looks like I'll have to go in my suit today.
**[04:30] Saku**
I'll just say I had work earlier in the day.
**[04:35] Saku**
Huh?
**[04:38] Saku**
Hey!
**[04:40] Saku**
Yuki...
**[04:45] Saku**

**[04:46] Saku**
How'd you do it?!
**[04:49] Saku**
Can you turn a pumpkin into a carriage, too?
**[04:53] Saku**
Oh, it's nothing. Nothing at all.
**[05:00] Saku**
Thank you so much, Yukichi!
**[05:02] Saku**
I'll buy you some Churu on the way home!
**[05:06] Saku**
What's that?
**[05:08] Saku**
No, thank you!
**[05:09] Saku**
Goodness! Stop acting like a mom who's
excited about her daughter's first date!
**[05:14] Saku**
I'm off!
**[05:20] Saku**
I'll eat those when I get home.

Well, let's go.
**[06:05] Saku; Internal**
*Wh-Who is that?*
**[06:11] Orizuka**
I'm just messing with you.
**[06:13] Orizuka**
This child is my niece, Yume.
**[06:16] Orizuka**
My parents usually take care of her,
but they aren't available today.
**[06:21] Orizuka**
So it's my turn to take her.
**[06:23] Saku**
So that's why we're at the aquarium.
**[06:26] Yume**
UMYU-Sea is coming!
**[06:29] Orizuka**
Yume is a huge fan of UMYU-Sea.
**[06:34] Orizuka**
I was pretty much forced to bring her here...
**[06:39] Orizuka**
But to be honest, I'm not good with children.
**[06:43] Orizuka**
Your offer came at the perfect time.
**[06:47] Orizuka**
Yume, this nice lady

Wait, what?! Yume-chan?!

Such a fluffy kitty!

Oh, well! I looked up
a lot of things on Youtubo!
**[10:26] UMYU-Sea**
*The idols of the sea!*

**[10:33] Saku; Internal**
*I can do the dances, too.*
**[10:34] Orizuka**
You're so serious about everything.
**[10:35] Saku**
So mean!
**[10:38] Saku**
What do you like best about UMYU-Sea?
**[10:42] Yume**
The food, I guess?
**[10:45] Orizuka**
They started as characters
from an educational show.
**[10:49] Saku**
Really?
**[10:52] Orizuka**
They power up by eating
the food from the sea
**[10:56] Orizuka**
and fight against alien monsters called Gairai
Beasts that want to take over the earth.

* He seemed to have thought*
* I was going on a date today.*
**[11:26] Saku; Internal**
* Maybe he was worried about me and wanted*

Maybe it's a Gairai Beast

You're right.
**[13:57] Saku**
You're actually not bad
with kids at all, are you?
**[14:01] Orizuka**
What are you saying?
**[14:02] Orizuka**
She invaded my day off.
To me, she's a Gairai Beast.
**[14:08] Saku**
But, look, you even remember
the things she likes!
**[14:14] Saku**
I think that's more than enough!
**[14:17] Orizuka**
Are you sure that's enough?
**[14:21] Saku**
Just look at how happy Yume-chan is!
**[14:26] Saku**
Lost again, Yume-chan?!

There you are! Thank goodness!
**[14:41] Orizuka**
Sorry, Fukuzawa. I didn't
realize I let go of her hand.
**[14:45] Saku**
No, I'm just glad she didn't get lost.
**[14:48] Saku**
Yume-chan, let's hold hands now.
**[14:52] Saku**
Why do you have that basket with you?
**[14:54] Saku**
I've seen that basket before...
**[14:56] Yume**
Yuki-chan gave it to me!
**[14:58] Orizuka**
Yuki-chan?
**[15:02] Saku**
Um, uh, a friend of mine!
**[15:05] Saku**
We happened to see him
when you took your call.
**[15:09] Saku**
I'm so sorry!
**[15:11] Orizuka**
I see.
**[15:13] Orizuka**
Why are you apologizing?
**[15:14] Yume**
Yuki-chan said we should eat these together.
**[15:18] Orizuka**
Amazing. It looks just
like the lunches you bring.
**[15:24] Yume**
Hey, Big Sis!
**[15:27] Yume**
Will you play with me again?
**[15:29] Saku**
Of course! I had a great time today!
**[15:33] Yume**
Then bring Yuki-chan with you next time!
**[15:35] Yume**
I wanna fluffy hug again!

Huh?!

I-I'll ask!
**[16:17] Saku**
Yuki-chan...
**[16:19] Saku**
Yuki-chan, are you home?
**[16:22] Saku**
The sandwiches were delicious.
**[16:24] Saku**
I can't believe you took the train
and came all the way to the aquarium...

**[16:35] Saku**
What's wrong, Yukichi?!
**[16:36] Saku**
No! Don't die!
**[16:52] Saku**
Of course you're tired.
You overexerted yourself...
**[16:57] Saku**
Well, as long as you're safe.

Do you have a plan for getting it exercise?

Huh? Plans?

Oh...

Or maybe getting a cat tower?
**[19:53] Saku**
Uh...
**[20:03] Saku**
I don't do anything like that for my cat,

Yukichi, I'm home!
**[00:21] Saku**
Our company did Premium Friday
for the first time today!
**[00:26] Saku**
There was still a little light
in the sky, it was so moving!
**[00:32] Saku**
What's wrong?
**[00:34] Saku**
Huh? C-Could it be?
**[00:37] Saku**
Can you tell I petted the crap
out of a doggy on my way home?
**[00:39] Owner**
Oh, my.
**[00:40] Saku**
Doggy...
**[00:43] Saku**
There were a lot of people out
walking their dogs. I couldn't help it.
**[00:47] Saku**
Yukichi! Sorry!
**[00:48] Saku**
Sorry!
**[00:54] Yuri**
Cats often get really upset if you
pet other animals while you're out.
**[00:59] Saku**
An animal's nose can be so scary!
**[01:02] Yuri**
Speaking of their noses, does your
cat try to lick your face toner?
**[01:07] Saku**
Face toner?
**[01:09] Yuri**
My family's cat loved licking my face
right after I put on my face toner.
**[01:12] Yuri**
It was hard to get away!
**[01:15] Yuri**
Stop it!
**[01:18] Yuri**
I've heard of cats licking
freshly shampooed hair, too.
**[01:21] Saku**
Ow! Ow! Ow! Your tongue is so rough!
**[01:24] Saku**
That's a little scary!
**[01:28] Saku**
Thank goodness my cat doesn't do that...
**[01:31] Yuri**
Yeah. It's bad for them to
ingest any of that stuff.

What is that?! A stuffed animal?!
**[09:37] Devil Mom**
Is it a stuffed bear?!
**[09:38] Saku; Internal**
* Why is he drawing more*
* attention to himself?!*
**[09:41] Saku; Internal**
*Does he want us to move?!*
**[09:45] Yume**
Yuki-chan! This way!
**[09:47] Witch Mom**
It moved!
**[09:48] Devil Mom**
Th-That means it's alive, right?
**[09:51] Saku; Internal**
*Th-This is bad!*
**[09:53] Maid Mom**
I often see that cat
in the neighborhood pharmacy!
**[09:57] Maid Mom**
I've always wondered about it!
**[10:00] Cone Hat Mom**
It's that huge cat rumored to appear
at the supermarket in 3-Chome!
**[10:04] Devil Mom**
Those rumors are true?!
**[10:10] Witch Mom**
Oh, so it's a cat suit.
**[10:13] Devil Mom**
I've heard that technology
nowadays is pretty amazing.
**[10:17] Cone Hat Mom**
But I wonder why that person
always wears a cat costume.
**[10:20] Saku**
* Good job dressing up as*
* someone in a cat costume!*
**[10:23] Yume's Mom**
Fukuzawa-san, aren't you
from Kaoru's company?
**[10:27] Saku**
Kao...?
**[10:28] Saku**
Oh, yes!
**[10:29] Saku**
He always takes care of me!
**[10:31] Yume's Mom**
Thank you for always taking
care of my little brother.
**[10:35] Saku; Internal**
*She must be Yume-chan's mother. She's so young!*
**[10:38] Saku**
Um, your daughter was kind enough
to invite me here today.
**[10:43] Yume's Mom**
I heard that you played
with her at the aquarium.
**[10:48] Yume's Mom**
I'm sorry you had to spend one
of your days off that way.
**[10:51] Saku**
Oh, it's f-fine!
**[10:53] Saku**
I would have just slept the day
away if I stayed home...
**[10:59] Saku**
Wait, *little* brother?!
**[11:02] Yume's Mom**
Yes, Kaoru is my little brother.
**[11:05] Saku; Internal**
*This person is older than the chief?!*
***SIGN*** 32 Years Old
**[11:10] Saku; Internal**
*In other words, she's older than* me*?!*
**[11:14] Yume's Mom**
I heard about Yuki-san from Yume.
He's really quite a large cat.
**[11:20] Saku**
Huh? Come to think of it,
where did they go?!
**[11:23] Yume's Mom**
Yume pulled him up to
the second floor just now.
**[11:28] Yume's Mom**
She probably ran to my mother's room.
**[11:31] Saku**
By mother, do you mean
Chief O-Orizuka's mother?
**[11:36] Yume's Mom**
Oh, he didn't tell you?
**[11:38] Yume's Mom**
This is our family home.
**[11:43] Yume's Mom**
We used it for the party
because it's spacious.
**[11:46] Yume's Mom**
Would you like to see the room
my little brother grew up in?
**[11:50] Yume's Mom**
His graduation album is here, too.
**[11:52] Saku**
I-I-I wouldn't dare!
**[11:54] Saku; Internal**
*You should have told me, Chief!*
**[11:56] Saku; Internal**
*I feel awkward now!*
**[12:01] Yume**
Yuki-chan! Over here! Over here!
**[12:07] Yume**
There's someone I want you
to meet on the second floor!
**[12:10] Yume**
My grandma!
**[12:14] Yume**
It's okay to come up.
Grandma used to have a cat, too.
**[12:21] Yume**
Jeez!
**[12:25] Yume**
All the kids who want to see all
the UMYU-Sea stuff I collected! Come up!
**[12:29] Yume**
I have event-only stuff, too!
**[12:53] Yume**
Grandma!
**[12:56] Grandmother**
That cute voice must be from Yume-chan.
**[13:03] Yume**
Grandma's eyes can't
see that well anymore.
**[13:07] Yume**
Grandma!
**[13:10] Yume**
This is the Yuki-chan
I told you about before!
**[13:12] Grandmother**
Oh, my. You came to visit?
**[13:15] Grandmother**
Nice to meet you.
**[13:17] Grandmother**
I am Yume's grandmother.
**[13:39] Grandmother**
You really are a large and impressive cat.
**[13:48] Grandmother**
Your fur is very beautiful.
**[13:51] Grandmother**
It reminds me of the black cat
I used to have.
**[13:55] Grandmother**
My cat became a part of the stars
quite a long time ago.
**[13:59] Grandmother**
My cat was also very intelligent.
**[14:10] Saku**
Yume-chan!
**[14:11] Yume**
Yes!
**[14:12] Saku**
Where are you, Yukichi?
**[14:14] Saku**
Yume's mom wants to start the party...
**[14:18] Saku**
I-I-I'm so sorry!
**[14:20] Saku**
U-Um, he's definitely not a dangerous cat!
**[14:24] Grandmother**
Are you a part of Yuki-san's family?
**[14:27] Saku**
Y-Yes!
**[14:29] Grandmother**
What a lucky young lady.
**[14:32] Grandmother**
You are living with a lucky anko cat.
**[14:38] Grandmother**
My grandfather often told me
**[14:42] Grandmother**
that black cats are called anko cats,
**[14:44] Grandmother**
and they are lucky cats that
bring their owners great luck.
**[15:00] Grandmother**
How nice.
**[15:03] Yume's Mom?**
Right?
**[15:03] Grandmother**
Happy birthday, Yume-chan.
**[15:07] Yume's Mom**
Happy birthday, Yume.
**[15:16] Mothers**
Yume-chan, happy birthday!
**[15:18] Mom 1**
So tasty. They're amazing!
**[15:20] Mom 3**
Are the buns homemade, too?
**[15:23] Saku**
Happy birthday!
**[15:24] Yume**
Wow!
**[15:27] Yume's Mom**
Say, "Cheese!"
**[15:31] Yume's Mom**
Thank you very much.
**[15:34] Yume**
Come again soon!
**[15:36] Saku**
See you again!
**[15:40] Saku**
I was worried about what
would happen! I was so nervous!
**[15:43] Saku**
The cat suit zipper worked perfectly!
**[15:59] Saku**
Well, I was just thinking, what if
you *were* just a man in a cat suit?
**[16:10] Saku**
It's been a long time since
we've come by this park!
**[16:22] Saku**
You were curled up under
that bench, Yukichi...
**[16:35] Grandmother**
*My grandfather often told me*
**[16:38] (Flashback) Grandmother**
that black cats are called anko cats,
**[16:41] Grandmother**
* and they are lucky cats that*
* bring their owners great luck.*
**[16:52] Saku**
The moment I saw you...
**[16:54] Saku**
I was craving something sweet,
**[16:58] Saku**
so I thought you were an ohagi rice cake.
**[17:02] Saku**
Ouch! Ouch! Your claws!
**[17:09] Orizuka; Internal**
*Oh, that was today...*
**[17:12] Orizuka; Internal**
* Fukuzawa even managed to prepare*
* a costume on such short notice.*
**[17:16] Orizuka; Internal**
*Did her friend Yuki-san come?*
**[17:21] Orizuka; Internal**
* Where did this realistic-looking*
* cat suit come from?*
**[17:25] Orizuka; Internal**
*Scary...*
**[17:29] Orizuka; Internal**
*Thank goodness I had to work.*
**[17:31] Orizuka; Internal**
*I should buy her a souvenir to thank her.*
**[17:35] Narration**
*A few days ago...*
**[17:49] Saku; Internal**
*Slip in?! What am I thinking?!*
**[17:52] (Flashback) Saku**
Yukichi!
**[17:53] (Flashback) Saku**
It's too dangerous!
**[17:55] (Flashback) Saku**
It's definitely way too dangerous!
**[17:58] (Flashback) Saku**
Wait, what are you making?
**[18:02] (Flashback) Saku**
Huh?! Is that stuffed animal
a present for Yume-chan?!
**[18:07] (Flashback) Saku**
Hey, Yukichi!
**[18:08] (Flashback) Saku**
I'm serious! I really want one!
**[18:14] (Flashback) Saku**
It fits so perfectly in my arms!
**[18:16] (Flashback) Saku**
And the shape totally triggers
my motherly protective instincts!
**[18:21] (Flashback) Saku**
It makes me want to take care of a cat!

It's so cold!

I'll want the kotatsu soon!
**[00:16] Saku**
We won't make it through
the winter with this little heater!
**[00:20] Saku**
Hey, Yukichi. Where's our kotatsu?
**[00:27] Saku**
Huh?
**[00:28] Saku**
Huh?!
**[00:28] Saku**

Why don't we buy a new

**[03:03] Saku**
I have sincerely reflected
upon my past mistakes!
**[03:08] Saku**
I won't make it my nest!
**[03:10] Saku**
I won't eat or drink near it!
**[03:12] Saku**
I also won't forget to turn it off!

So, please!
**[03:29] Saku**
It makes me sad that you don't trust me!
**[03:32] Saku**
Just imagine!
**[03:34] Saku**
A kotatsu is a must for someone
who hates air conditioners like you, Yukichi!
**[03:38] Saku**
It'll gently warm your toe beans after they
freeze from doing housework or going out.

**[15:27] Mother**
*Are you really taking care of him?*
**[15:30] Saku**
This is bad! This is really bad!
**[15:35] Mother**
* Could it be that his home*
* environment is really terrible?*
**[15:38] Saku**
Th-That's not true...
**[15:41] Saku**
M-Maybe it's not *not* true, but...
**[15:43] Saku**
"He improved his home environment
by himself, and he's living well."
**[15:46] Saku**
I can't really tell her that...
**[15:50] Mother**
* I should go over and*
* check on Yukichi-chan myself...*
**[15:53] Saku**
I knew it!
**[15:54] Saku**
She said something terrifying!
**[15:56] Saku**
What should I do?!
**[15:57] Saku**
What should I do, Yukichi?!
**[15:59] Saku**
Do something!
**[16:04] Saku**
I'm not talking about how to host her!
**[16:06] Saku**
Wait, why do you know
Mom's alcohol preferences?!
**[16:11] Mother**
Goodness! What is taking her so long?
**[16:15] Mother**
I should really visit if she doesn't
send me a proper photo this time.
**[16:21] Mother**
What in the world? You should have
just sent this over from the start!
**[16:24] Father**
Oh, how rare.
**[16:26] Father**
A message from Saku?
**[16:27] Mother**
Yes! Quite rare!
**[16:29] Mother**
She hasn't sent a picture
of herself in years!
**[16:33] Father**
Oh! Send it to me, too!
**[16:35] Mother**
Goodness. That stupid girl.
**[16:38] Mother**
She never contacts us on her own!
**[16:40] Father**
Oh, my.
**[16:41] Mother**
Jeez! Jeez! Jeez!
**[16:43] Father; Internal**
*Goodness. She's not honest at all.*
**[16:48] Saku**
Looks like we placated her...
**[16:50] Saku**
Your plan was a complete success, Yukichi.
***SIGN*** Perspective
**[16:53] Saku**
As expected!
**[16:55] Saku**
I think she's mad that
I haven't gone home in a while.
**[17:01] Saku**
Oh!
**[17:02] Saku**
We should take some more pictures like this!
**[17:06] Saku**
I need to have some prepared just
in case she asks for more.
**[17:11] Saku**
I can show off pictures like this at work!
**[17:15] Saku**
"Isn't my cat super cute?"
**[17:20] Saku**
For now, though, I want a beer!
**[17:25] Saku**
*We had a huge photo shoot on a different day.*
**[17:29] Narration**
*The photo shoot on a different day.*
**[17:31] Saku**
Help me!

**[17:42] Train Announcer**
*The train will be arriving soon.*
**[17:46] Saku**
I'm home, Yukichi!
**[17:54] Saku**
A message?
**[17:56] Saku**
From Mom?
**[17:58] Mother**
* I received something nice,*
* so I sent it to you.*
**[18:02] Mother**
* I feel bad that I didn't send*
* anything for Yukichi-chan.*
**[18:05] Mother**
* But you need to properly*
* cook for yourself at home!*
**[18:08] Saku**
"Got it." Sent.
**[18:11] Saku**
Yukichi, did I get a package?
**[18:20] Saku**
He's super happy?!
**[18:24] Saku**
What? What'd we get?!
**[18:27] Saku**
Is this a stone plate?
***SIGN*** High Quality Sharpening Stone
**[18:30] Saku**
Oh, it's a sharpening stone.
**[18:32] Saku**
Like for knives.
**[18:34] Saku**
I've never seen one in person.
**[18:38] Saku**
All yours.
**[18:41] Saku**
Whoa! I-I-It's Mom!
**[18:44] Saku**
Y-Yes. Hello?
**[18:46] Mother**
*Sorry, were you in the middle of a date?*
**[18:51] Saku**
I was just looking at the package you sent!
**[18:56] Saku**
Thanks for the sharpening stone.
**[18:57] Mother**
Is Yukichi-chan disappointed
because that's all I sent today?
**[19:02] Saku**
No, he's super happy about it.
**[19:04] Mother**
Huh? He's happy?
**[19:07] Saku**
No! The box! The cardboard box!
***SIGN*** Squeeze
**[19:09] Saku**
Don't normal cats love them?!
**[19:11] Mother**
What do you mean by *normal* cats?
**[19:13] Mother**
Are there abnormal cats out there?
**[19:15] Saku**
Definitely not!
**[19:17] Mother**
I want to see Yukichi-chan in a box, too!
**[19:20] Saku**
Huh?! That's impossible!
**[19:23] Mother**
*Why?!*
**[19:25] Saku**
I'm just tired!
**[19:26] Saku**
I have to work early tomorrow
so I'm going to bed!
**[19:29] Mother**
Then at least let me hear him meow!
**[19:31] Saku**
Meow?!
**[19:42] Saku; Internal**
*I've never heard him meow myself!*
**[19:45] Saku; Internal**
* I've heard his weird laugh*
* a few times, though.*
**[19:48] Saku**
He's the type that doesn't meow much.
**[19:51] Mother**
Oh, he's the perfect type
for an apartment, then.
***SIGN*** Purr
***SIGN*** Purr
**[20:00] Saku**

**[20:04] Saku**
Yukichi, I'm going to take a bath.
**[20:09] Saku**
Oh! Are you going to start sharpening?!
**[20:12] Saku**
I didn't know you needed
a sharpening stone at home, too.
**[20:16] Saku**
I thought only professionals used them.
**[20:18] Chef**
I end my workday by sharpening my knife.
**[20:22] Saku**
How did you get by until now?
**[20:31] Saku**
A teacup?
**[20:33] Saku**
Huh? You can sharpen a knife that way?!
**[20:37] Saku**
Amazing! What a life hack!
**[20:43] Saku**
Don't look at me like it's common sense!
**[20:47] Saku**
It's definitely not common
sense for a cat, you know?!
**[20:57] Saku; Internal**
I would have bought him one
if I knew it'd make him that happy.
**[21:03] Saku**
Yukichi, what's for dinner?
**[21:16] Saku**
Y-Yamanba?!
***SIGN*** Hee Hee Hee

**[00:06] Oshiro**
That meeting was way too long!
**[00:09] Yuri**
My stomach almost grumbled!
**[00:12] Oshiro**
Fukuzawa, yours definitely did.
**[00:15] Saku**
Did you hear it?
**[00:17] Saku**
Sorry.
**[00:19] Saku; Internal**
*I mean...*
**[00:21] Saku; Internal**
* I kept thinking about*
* the lunch box waiting for me!*
**[00:23] Narration**
*Today's Yukichi special.*
**[00:25] Saku**
Thank you for the meal!
**[00:32] Saku**
Wh-What?
**[00:33] Oshiro**
Are you trying to show off your homemaking
skills with your lunch boxes, Fukuzawa?
**[00:37] Yuri**
Maybe you're aiming for a super
high-spec marriage partner?
**[00:40] Oshiro**
Once again, your lunch looks amazing.
**[00:42] Saku**
No, no, no! Not at all!
**[00:45] Yuri**
So you're really making
lunches like that for fun?
**[00:48] Oshiro**
But you want to get married, right?
**[00:52] Saku**
Marriage?
**[00:55] Yuri**
That's the face of someone who
isn't thinking about things at all..
**[00:59] Oshiro**
You're going to miss your chance if you keep
picking at your lunch without thinking about things.
**[01:02] Yuri**
How was that singles party you went to?
**[01:06] Oshiro**
Actually, my friends and I ended up
going to a city-sponsored singles event.
**[01:11] Yuri**
How'd it go?!
**[01:12] Oshiro**
Well...
**[01:14] Saku; Internal**
*Marriage?*
**[01:20] Saku**
As incompetent as I am...

**[03:05] Saku**
As incompetent as I am...
**[03:08] Saku; Internal**
*A marriage with Yukichi by my side?!*
**[03:15] Husband**
Thank you for making my lunch box today!
**[03:18] Husband**
You even ironed my shirt for me.
**[03:21] Husband**
You're such a masterful cat!
**[03:28] Husband**
I don't mind going through with the divorce,
but I can't live without Yukichi.
**[03:34] Saku**
No way!
**[03:35] Saku**
Yukichi is *my* cat! Don't be ridiculous!
**[03:39] Husband**
Yukichi has also told me he doesn't want to
go back to living off of your meager salary.
**[03:45] Husband**
Make sure to send that to the ward office.
**[03:50] Saku**
Yukichi! Yukichi!
**[03:55] Saku**
No marriage! I won't hand my Yukichi over!
**[03:58] Yuri/Oshiro**
*Huh?*
**[03:59] Yuri/Oshiro**
*Yukichi bills? It's about money?!*
**[04:01] Saku**
What a terrifying thought!
**[04:05] Oshiro**
So, what kind of man are you
looking for, Yuri-chan?
**[04:08] Yuri**
Me?
**[04:10] Yuri**
I have a father complex, so I'd like
a tolerant older man who'd spoil me rotten.
**[04:18] Yuri**
Being rich would be a plus.
**[04:20] Yuri**
I hope he'll take the lead
with chores around the house
**[04:24] Yuri**
and forgive me for being
bad at cleaning up.
**[04:29] Yuri**
Oh! It'd also be amazing if he'd make lunches for me!
**[04:32] Yuri**
A kind of motherly man who'd say,
"Make sure to eat vegetables, too."
**[04:37] Oshiro**
I totally get you.
**[04:39] Saku; Internal**
*Lunch...*
**[04:40] Yuri**
Even though I know that kind
of dream man doesn't exist!
**[04:44] Saku**
No, they might be more
common than you think...
**[04:47] Yuri/Oshiro**
Huh?!
**[04:48] Saku; Internal**
*I have one at home myself.*
**[04:52] Saku; Internal**
*He's a cat, though.*
**[04:53] Narration**
*Epitome of the tolerant homemaker.*
**[05:13] Saku**
If...
**[05:15] Saku**
Hypothetically, okay?
**[05:18] Saku**
If a person with double my salary
came and said they wanted you...
**[05:25] Saku**
Yukichi, would you...?
**[05:28] Saku**
No hesitation?!
**[05:30] Saku**
Y-You heartless cat!
**[05:32] Saku**
Shouldn't you have wavered
for at least three seconds?!
**[05:45] Saku**
Your ability to toss me aside so decisively
after thinking that deeply is cruel, too!
**[05:49] Saku**
I've decided!
**[05:51] Saku**
I'm going to earn some qualifications!
I'll increase my salary!
**[05:57] Saku**
It's time to sleep?!
**[05:59] Saku**
I'm not a growing child!
**[06:01] Saku**
There are times when an adult
has to do what they have to do!
**[06:18] Saku**
D-Don't get me wrong!
**[06:19] Saku**
I just happen to be sleepy today!
**[06:23] Saku**
Starting tomorrow, I'm totally
gonna pull all-nighters!
**[06:28] Saku; Narration**
*I was asleep in three seconds.*
**[06:41] Narration**
*Now, consider this.*
**[06:44] Narration**
* The metallic sounds that can be*
* faintly heard in the darkness...*
**[06:47] Narration**
* Could they be the sound of samurai*
* ghosts walking throughout the village,*
**[06:53] Narration**
*creating supernatural chaos?*

*Be sure to catch us again next week.*
**[07:12] Saku**
I-It wasn't that scary.
**[07:18] Saku; Internal**
* What should I do?!*
* That scared the crap out of me...*
**[07:21] Saku; Internal**
*Why'd I say I wanted to watch it again?!*
**[07:24] Saku**
What should we watch?
**[07:26] Saku**
Oh! *Horror Special*'s on?
**[07:29] Saku; Internal**
* No, Yukichi seemed interested,*
* so I couldn't help myself!*
***SIGN*** Following

**[07:36] Saku**
Huh? Huh?!
**[07:39] Saku**
Oh, no! It's nothing!
**[07:42] Saku**
Oh, yeah! Beer!
**[07:44] Saku**
I want a beer! A beer!
**[07:46] Saku; Internal**
*Maybe I won't be scared if I'm drunk!*
**[07:51] Bath Monitor**
*Your bath has been drawn.*
**[07:53] Saku**
No!
**[07:54] Saku**
No, no, no! Beer!
**[07:55] Saku**
I'll take a bath after a beer!
**[07:57] Saku**
I promise I won't sleep in the tub!
**[08:00] Saku**
It's no use! He has zero trust in me!
**[08:06] Saku**
I don't wanna! I don't wanna!
**[08:08] Saku**
Then, I'm not taking a bath today!
**[08:09] Saku**
I'll skip the bath, drink a beer, and sleep!
**[08:17] Saku**
Hold on.
**[08:18] Saku**
Why did you have something like this on you?
**[08:25] Saku; Internal**
*This is bad.*
**[08:28] Saku; Internal**
* He's treating me more*
* and more like a little kid.*
**[08:31] Saku; Internal**
* If he finds out that*
* I'm too scared to take a bath*
**[08:34] Saku; Internal**
*because I watched a horror show...*
**[08:36] Saku; Internal**
*I'll lose all my respect as a pet owner!*
**[08:39] Narration**
*There wasn't any to begin with.*
**[08:42] Saku; Internal**
*Who's scared of samurai ghosts?*
**[08:55] Saku**
Ouch!
***SIGN*** Hangers

**[08:58] Saku; Internal**
*Bad!*
**[08:59] Saku; Internal**
*This is really bad!*
**[09:00] Saku; Internal**
* Am I so terrified that*
* I'm having hallucinations?!*
**[09:03] Saku; Internal**
*I should just wash my hair and hurry out!*
**[09:07] Saku; Internal**
*Don't think about anything. Forget it all.*
**[09:10] Saku; Internal**
*Who cares about some samurai ghosts!*
**[09:12] Saku; Internal**
* What if I look up and there's*
* a ghost in the mirror?!*
**[09:16] Saku; Internal**
*It's no use!*
**[09:17] Saku; Internal**
*Why do I keep thinking of horror cliches?!*
**[09:21] Saku; Internal**
* An adult shouldn't be scared*
* of something like this!*
**[09:23] Saku; Internal**
*Probably!*
**[09:28] Narration**
* Planning to have her step*

**[09:34] Saku**
Yeah, it was a nice bath...
**[09:38] Saku**
Sorry for being so noisy.
**[09:42] Saku**
Anyways, I should have a beer...
**[09:48] Saku**
I've warmed up. I'm fine. I'm fine.
***SIGN*** Gulp
**[09:58] Saku**
So cold!
**[10:04] Saku**
L-Looks like chugging the beer
made me a little cold?
**[10:09] Saku**
Yukichi, let's go to bed!
**[10:12] Saku**
I-I mean, it'll be warm
if we sleep together!
**[10:24] Saku; Internal**
* I should stop thinking*
* about it and go to bed.*
**[10:28] Saku; Internal**
*It's okay. I'm an adult.*
**[10:31] Saku; Internal**
*Three seconds is all I need to fall asleep.*
**[10:44] Saku; Internal**
* I'm an adult! I'm an adult!*
* I'm an adult! I'm an adult! I'm...*
**[10:50] Saku; Internal**
*What's that sound?*
**[10:52] Saku; Internal**
*So scary! I can't sleep!*
**[10:57] Saku; Internal**
*Did Yukichi go and take a look?*
**[11:09] Saku; Internal**
*He's not coming back.*
**[11:13] Saku**
Yukichi?
**[11:19] Saku**
Yukichi?
**[11:31] Saku**
Wh... Wh-Wh-Wh-What're you doing?!
**[11:42] Saku**
I can't! I can't! I can't!
**[11:43] Saku**
I can't forget what I just saw!
***SIGN*** Daiginjo
**[11:49] Saku; Internal**
*He's going to make me forget!*
**[11:51] Saku**
Come to think of it, you did that a lot
when you were a kitten.
**[11:57] Saku**
You could just pour some out to drink.
**[11:59] Saku**
There's no need to hide something like that.
**[12:02] Saku**
You should act more freely at home.
**[12:06] Saku**
It's important to be a little
careful outside, though.
**[12:09] Saku**
I want you to be more
relaxed at home, Yukichi.
**[12:15] Saku**
Oh, and...
**[12:17] Saku**
That ghost show left me terrified, but then
you surprised all the fear right out of me.
**[12:22] Saku**
I thought I'd never fall asleep...
**[12:25] Saku**
Wait, don't get the wrong idea!
I wasn't *that* scared of it!
**[12:29] Saku**
I know that it's all fake re-enactments!
**[12:32] Saku**
Jeez! Another cup!
**[12:33] Saku**
Make some snacks, too!
**[12:58] Saku**
Sorry, was I being loud?
**[13:01] Saku**
I was looking at something on Ista
my work junior showed me recently.
**[13:05] Saku**
She said that looking at a cat owner's account
makes you feel like you're taking care of a cat.
**[13:14] Saku**
No, no. That's not it!
**[13:15] Saku**
Of course you're a cat, Yukichi!
**[13:17] Saku**
You're a cat, but...
**[13:18] Saku**
Oh, that café au lait looks good!
***SIGN*** Tremble
**[13:20] Saku**
U-Um!
**[13:22] Saku**
The chief has been asking me
about you lately!
**[13:27] (Flashback) Saku**
Y-Yes! He's doing great!
**[13:30] Orizuka; Internal**
* Someone who lives a place*
* filled with trash has a cat?*
**[13:33] Orizuka; Internal**
*Is she taking care of it right?*
**[13:36] Saku**
I think he's wondering if I've been
taking good care of you, like my mom...
**[13:41] Saku**
The chief seems to like cats.
**[13:44] Saku**
That's why I'm looking
at various cat owner accounts.
**[13:48] Saku**
I'm hoping I look a little less suspicious
**[13:50] Saku**
if I manage to make cats
part of my daily life.
**[13:55] Saku**
Wh-What's wrong?
**[13:57] Saku**
What are you warming up for?
**[14:01] Saku**
A-Are you going to show me
something a regular cat would do?!
**[14:07] Saku**
Y-Yukichi!
**[14:10] Saku**
Oh! That's the scratching post
I've never seen you use!
**[14:15] Saku**
I just finished watching a clip
of a cat that had to be rescued
**[14:18] Saku**
because its claws got stuck in one!
**[14:23] Narrator**
*Lute-playing priest.*
**[14:27] Saku**
I knew it...
**[14:30] Saku**
Yeah. Well, Yukichi is Yukichi.
**[14:35] Saku**
You don't need to force
yourself to act like a regular cat.
**[14:41] Saku**
What are you doing now?
**[14:43] Saku**
Oh! Could this be the skill
**[14:45] Saku**
where a cat walks through a bunch of items
without knocking any over?!
**[14:47] Narration**
*Weave...*
**[14:49] Saku**
What? Can you really do it?!
**[14:52] Saku**
But your legs are bigger
than a regular cat's!
**[14:56] Saku**
Okay! Then, give it a try!

Wait, what is that?
**[15:14] Saku**
What even *is* a regular cat? What's normal?!
**[15:16] Saku**
I don't know anymore.
***SIGN*** Cat Labyrinth
**[15:18] Saku**
Could it be that regular cats
are actually imaginary creatures?!
**[15:23] Saku**
I'm pretty sure I'm going to fail in seconds
if the chief asks me about cats again.
**[15:28] Saku**
There's no point in looking
at all these Ista reels.
**[15:32] Saku**
Look at...
**[15:39] Saku**
Huh?! Are you puffing out your cheeks?!
**[15:42] Saku**
Do cats have cheeks that work like that?
**[15:43] Saku**
Stop!
**[15:44] Saku**
I'm getting more and
more confused about cats!
**[15:50] Saku**
Oh, but there's one thing I completely
agree with other cat owners about!
**[15:55] Saku**
No matter how cute other cats are, I always
end up thinking my cat is the cutest.
**[16:05] Saku**
Well, that's the only one though...
**[16:14] Saku**
Yay!
**[16:15] Saku**
If only I could talk about
the delicious food my cat makes for me!
**[16:19] Saku**
I'd be able to go on and on!
**[16:26] Saku**
Shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot!
**[16:28] Saku**
I need to leave in three minutes!
**[16:30] Saku**
Sorry, Yukichi!
**[16:31] Saku**
I'm just going to take the coffee...
**[16:44] Saku**
Y-Yukichi! I'm sorry!

*He's gonna cluck his tongue again!*

He broke?!

Sorry!
**[16:54] Saku**
I'm sorry for being so airheaded!
**[16:56] Saku**
I deeply regret my actions! P-Please!
**[17:01] Saku**
Please stay calm!
**[17:03] Saku**
He's gone mad!
**[17:05] Saku**
Wh-What are you doing?!
**[17:07] Saku**
Wait, does wallpaper
normally come off so easily?
**[17:10] Saku**
Huh?
**[17:11] Saku**
The wallpaper is still there!
**[17:13] Saku**
There are two layers?!

Sorry about what happened this morning!
**[18:41] Saku**
I brought a lot of cans of cat food
home as an apology...
**[18:45] Saku**
Completely renovated?!
**[18:48] Saku**
Wh-Where'd this cabinet come from?!
**[18:51] Saku**
This door is made from wooden slats!

Well, he really *is* talented after all.
**[19:11] Saku**
This is so nice!
**[19:13] Saku**
I feel like I'm in heaven compared

This doesn't even feel

**[20:08] Yukichi**
*Even so!*

*If you clean and declutter to the extreme...*

I was looking for a new home!
**[02:55] Yume**
For this kitten!
**[03:02] Yume**
It was in this box.
**[03:03] Yume**
I want to keep it, but pets
aren't allowed at home.
**[03:08] Yume**
Grandma can't keep it because
Grandma's eyes aren't good.
**[03:14] Yume**
That's why I'm gonna stay with it
until someone takes it home.
**[03:23] Yume**
No! I'm not going home!
**[03:25] Yume**

I really wanna keep it...
**[04:32] Yume**
Then I could feed it milk every
day and sleep in the same bed.

I would play with it every day and
once it got as big as Yuki-chan...
**[04:42] Yume**
We could go see UMYU-Sea together!

We didn't have to drink as much since she

She drank so much, but she
doesn't look drunk at all!

I went ahead and set up the meeting room.

She must have been born with

**[10:52] Man 1**
Isn't that above and beyond dexterous?
**[10:55] Mei**
Just what I'd expect from Yukichi-chan.
**[10:57] Man 1**
Well, I still feel like I'm dreaming, but...
**[11:02] Man 1**
Since we managed to finish cleaning up
way ahead of schedule, why don't we...

play some rounds of gateball!

Oh! Dai-chan! There you are!

Thank you, Yukichi-chan!

Goodness, Dai-chan must've
really wanted to see you.
**[12:29] Mei**
Oh, you don't recognize him?
**[12:30] Mei**
He's the kitten that you
and the little girl picked up.
**[12:51] Mei**
I'm taking care of him while his
family is gone on a family trip.
**[12:56] Mei**
Looks like he remembers you.

**[13:04] Mei**
Oh, goodness.

I need to go out for a bit.

Oshiro-san.
**[16:51] Oshiro**
Can I eat lunch with you?
**[16:52] Yuri**
Of course.
**[16:54] Yuri**
I was waiting for Saku-senpai,
but her meeting is running long...
**[16:59] Oshiro**
Fukuzawa again?
**[17:03] Oshiro**
A lot of my coworkers have been
asking if Fukuzawa is single or not.
**[17:08] Oshiro**
I've even been asked to
invite her to our singles meet-ups!
**[17:11] Yuri**
You organize meet-ups?
**[17:13] Oshiro**
Every once in a while.
**[17:15] Yuri**
Please invite me, too!
**[17:16] Yuri**
Who's asking? A different unit?!
**[17:18] Oshiro**
I get it.
**[17:20] Oshiro**
She's beautiful, skilled, gets along well
with others, and she's even good at cooking.
**[17:24] Oshiro**
She can hold her liquor, and she's always
at the top of her game the next day.
**[17:24] Saku**
Thank you very much.
**[17:27] Saku**
No, no.
**[17:29] Saku**
Yes, this case should be
considered resolved now.
**[17:30] Yuri**
Saku-senpai is really high-spec, isn't she?
**[17:34] Oshiro**
But...
**[17:37] Oshiro**
She was a completely different person
when she first transferred here.
**[17:42] Yuri**
Details, please.
**[17:45] Oshiro**
Fukuzawa joined us three years ago
in the middle of the year.
**[17:49] Oshiro**
She always looked so pale
and acted nervously,
**[17:53] Oshiro**
even when she didn't make any mistakes.
**[17:55] Oshiro**
Like, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry."
**[17:58] Yuri**
What?
**[17:59] Yuri**
I can't even imagine her like that!
**[18:03] Oshiro**
I was a little worried about her,
so I checked in on her every once in a while.
**[18:10] Oshiro; Internal**
*That's rare.*
**[18:12] Oshiro**
One day, she started bringing
homemade rice balls for lunch.
**[18:16] Oshiro**
They were pretty ugly rice balls, but...
**[18:20] Oshiro**
She looked so happy when she ate them.
**[18:26] Oshiro**
After that, she kept growing more and more
efficient at work, like a different person.
**[18:31] Oshiro**
It might've been from gaining confidence,
**[18:32] Oshiro**
but she began to sit up straighter
and got all rosy-cheeked.
**[18:36] Oshiro**
I'm thinking that maybe those rice balls
contained some sort of dangerous drug!
**[18:42] Yuri**
Isn't that an extremely baseless suspicion?
**[18:45] Oshiro**
Oh, sorry. Did I ruin your image of her?
**[18:48] Yuri**
Not at all.
**[18:50] Yuri**
It's true that it's
a little surprising, though.
**[18:53] Yuri**
Actually, I got to know Saku-senpai
while I was job hunting.
**[18:59] Oshiro**
Oh, really?
**[19:01] Yuri**
Yes.
**[19:02] Yuri**
I often saw her on the same train.
**[19:05] Yuri**
She was this beautiful woman
who always dressed well and stood tall.
**[19:12] Yuri**
There was even a time I admired her,
**[19:16] Yuri**
wanting to become an adult like that
once I started working in society.
**[19:20] Yuri**
But...
**[19:21] Oshiro**
But?
**[19:22] Yuri**
She was actually always fast asleep!
**[19:25] Yuri**
Every morning! Standing!
**[19:27] Oshiro**
What?!
**[19:28] Yuri**
Plus, even though she stood on the train
without holding onto anything,
**[19:30] Yuri**
she never fell over!
**[19:31] Yuri**
Amazing...
**[19:33] Oshiro**
Without holding onto anything?!
**[19:35] Yuri**
After that, I kept watching her,
thinking her core must be crazy strong.
**[19:39] Oshiro**
How?!
**[19:40] Oshiro**
Is it some kind of special training?!

It's gotta be destiny!
Why don't you two get married?
**[19:53] Yuri**

of that kind of coincidence?
**[19:56] Yuri**
I kept seeing her on the train pretty often.
**[20:02] Saku**
Please stop. I'll have you come
with me at the next station.
**[20:02] Yuri**
Saku-senpai noticed I was being harassed
by a pervert and caught him for me!
**[20:05] Pervert**
What'd you say, you--
**[20:07] Oshiro**
She c-c-caught him?!
**[20:10] Oshiro**
What? How?!
**[20:11] Yuri**
Yeah, she twisted his arm
with a practiced motion.
**[20:16] Pervert**
Let me go!
**[20:16] (Flashback) Saku**
Can you come down with us?
**[20:18] (Flashback) Yuri**
Y-Yes!

Maybe she worked in Japan's
Self-Defense Force before this?!
**[20:21] Pervert**
I'm really sorry!
**[20:23] Yuri**
I practically forced her name out of her
and invited her to dinner as a thank you.
**[20:30] Yuri**
I immediately applied once
I found out where she worked.
**[20:35] Oshiro**
Looks like you're the type that doesn't
give up once you set your sights on something!
**[20:40] Oshiro**
I see. So that's why you're so close to her.
**[20:45] Oshiro**
I didn't know.
**[20:48] Oshiro**
Fukuzawa's beautiful, skilled,
gets along with others,
**[20:51] Oshiro**
and she's even strong in a fight.
**[20:54] Oshiro**
I don't think I can beat her on any level.
**[20:57] Yuri**
She's kind of superhuman.
**[20:59] Oshiro**
I feel like there are still things
about her that we don't know!
**[21:03] Yuri**
Like a surprising secret?
**[21:06] Yuri**
No way! It'd be crazy if there was even more!
**[21:15] Saku**
E-Excuse me.
***SIGN*** Roll

Sorry!

**[00:00] Employee**
Yes, we emailed you about
that issue last week...
**[00:09] Saku**
Hot springs or Japanese sake?
**[00:12] Yuri**
Yes, which one are you
looking forward to more?
**[00:15] Saku**
Huh?
***SIGN*** Ru○bu
**[00:16] Saku**
Why the sudden question?
**[00:18] Yuri**
Isn't the trip next week?
We should get ready for it.
**[00:22] Saku**
Huh?
**[00:24] Yuri**
No way, Senpai! Did you forget
the company trip's coming up?!
**[00:29] Saku**
Company...

The company trip?!
**[02:13] Saku**
I completely forgot about it!
**[02:16] Saku**
Wait, I remember they
passed out the schedule!
**[02:19] Yuri**
Isn't this your first year
attending, Saku-senpai?
**[02:22] Yuri**
Oshiro-san told me.
**[02:23] Oshiro**
Blab! Blab! Blab!
**[02:25] Saku**
Yeah. That's right.
**[02:27] Saku**
We have the company trip every two years,
**[02:29] Saku**
and my cat was still a kitten
during the last one.
**[02:32] Narration**
*The cat when he was a kitten.*
**[02:35] Yuri**
I see.
**[02:36] Yuri**
But you can go this time, right?
**[02:39] Saku**
I was thinking of skipping it again,
but everyone rushed to stop me.
**[02:43] (Flashback) Employees**
You have to go!
**[02:45] (Flashback) Employee 1**
I won't be able to survive
a dinner party without you, Fukuzawa!
**[02:48] (Flashback) Employee 2**
Don't abandon us!
**[02:51] Saku**
I couldn't refuse.
**[02:53] Yuri**
Sounds like they'll need you there
so they don't get drunk under the table.
**[02:57] Yuri**
Well, your cat isn't a kitten anymore.
**[02:59] Yuri**
I'm sure he'll be fine for a night!
**[03:02] Yuri**
It might be a good idea to prepare
two kitty litter boxes just in case...
**[03:05] Saku**
Well, he'd probably be fine
even if I was gone for a month.
**[03:08] Narration**
*The cat who is no longer a kitten.*
**[03:11] Yuri**
Huh?
**[03:12] Saku**
Oh, nothing!
**[03:14] Saku**
I haven't been on a trip in years!
**[03:17] Saku**
Ooh, Japanese sake jelly!
**[03:19] Yuri**
Now that I think about it,
I've never seen you go on any trips.
**[03:23] Saku**
Yeah...
**[03:23] Yuri**
It's been a while since I've traveled
domestically, so I'm looking forward to it!
**[03:27] Saku**
I see...
**[03:28] Yuri**
Oh, I heard that place is famous!
**[03:31] Saku**
Yuri-chan, you like going
overseas more, right?
**[03:33] Saku**
I've never left the country!
**[03:36] Yuri**
You don't like traveling?
**[03:39] Saku**
No, it's not that.
**[03:42] Saku**
It's just, before I realized it...
**[03:45] Saku**
Well...
**[03:50] Saku**

I'm going to be gone for two full days.
**[04:10] Saku**
Will you be okay staying home alone?
**[04:12] Saku**
Should I buy some things for you?
**[04:18] Saku**
Well, I guess you can buy
everything you need yourself.
**[04:21] Saku**
Then call my cell
if you need anything.
**[04:25] Saku**
I'll try to come back home as fast as I can.
**[04:30] Saku**
You'll ask our neighbor for advice
if you have any problems?
**[04:33] Saku**
Guess that makes sense.
**[04:39] Saku**
Th-Then I should leave some
extra cash behind just in case.
**[04:45] Saku**

*Complete management of household finances.*
**[04:51] Saku**
Is there anything I need to buy for the trip?
**[04:57] Saku**
Since I'm only staying one night,
a Boston bag should be enough, right?
**[05:03] Saku**
Huh?
**[05:03] Saku**
Uh, where did I put my bag?
**[05:07] Saku**
Yukichi?
**[05:13] Saku**
Oh, you protected it with a cover. Thanks!
**[05:18] Saku**
Next are the clothes!
**[05:20] Saku**
What should I wear?
**[05:24] Saku**
Hey, Yukichi!
**[05:26] Saku**
Hmm.
**[05:28] Saku**
This'll be enough, right?
**[05:30] Saku**
Will it be cold?
**[05:35] Saku**
Huh? Did I have a cardigan like this?
**[05:38] Saku**
Did you buy this for me to wear out?

Thanks, Yukichi!

give me, but isn't this a souvenir list?!
**[07:29] Saku**
How excited are you about this trip?!
**[07:31] Saku**
You've even mapped out
all the areas! So detailed!
**[07:35] Saku**
I don't know if I can buy all of this

I'm going now!
**[08:01] Orizuka**
What's wrong with Fukuzawa?

Well, she hasn't gone

What are those cut-outs for?

I'm good. Sorry!
**[08:23] Oshiro**
Don't get too excited
and tire out half-way.
**[08:27] Saku**
No way. I'm not really that
excited about the trip.
**[08:31] Oshiro**
No need to hide it.
**[08:32] Oshiro**
Everyone already knows, you know?
**[08:35] Oshiro**
You're so excited about the trip,
**[08:38] Oshiro**
that you've been staring at
magazine cut-outs the whole time.
**[08:43] Oshiro**
Huh? No way! Seriously?
**[08:44] Oshiro**
Right on the mark, Fukuzawa?!

Weren't you thrashing about just now?
**[15:38] Saku**
I-I was looking for some coins I dropped!
**[15:44] Orizuka**
You were drinking pretty fast today,
so I came to make sure you didn't feel sick.
**[15:51] Saku**
Huh? Was I drinking that fast?
**[15:53] Orizuka**
It looked like you were
trying to drown yourself in it.
**[15:55] Saku**
N-No way! I don't drink like that anymore!
**[16:00] Orizuka**
I thought you would crash
before the director.
**[16:03] Saku**
I-I'm totally fine!
**[16:07] Orizuka**
Come to think of it, how's your cat?
**[16:10] Orizuka**
What's wrong?
**[16:12] Saku**
It's because you asked me
about my cat so suddenly!
**[16:16] Orizuka**
Did something happen to him? Sorry.
**[16:18] Saku**
Nothing happened to him!
**[16:20] Saku**
He's taking care of the house while I'm gone!
**[16:23] Orizuka**
Is it okay to leave a cat alone overnight?
**[16:28] Saku**
My cat definitely has no problem with it.
**[16:32] Saku**
I think it's actually easier
on him if I'm not home.
**[16:36] Orizuka**
I'm sure that's not true.
**[16:38] Orizuka**
They say that cats attach
themselves to the home,
**[16:41] Orizuka**
but the black cat we used to have...
**[16:45] Orizuka**
Fukuzawa?

This is Fukuzawa Saku's room, right?

Ye...

Yes!
**[16:57] Yuri**
Huh? Saku-senpai? What happened to her?

As you can see, I had to carry her here
because she's completely drunk.

Y-Y-You carried her here like that?

No, my phone.
**[17:45] Saku**
Found it.
**[17:47] Saku**
I'm going to call my cat at home.
**[17:50] Oshiro**

Well, I experienced something

**[19:59] Saku**
I'm sorry.
**[20:01] Yuri**
Don't be so mean, Oshiro-san!

It's so weird to see Saku-senpai

No. That's not it, actually.

**[02:19] Yukichi; Internal**
* finally reaching the point*

* Maybe I should toss this human aside*

**[02:30] Saku**
Oh, Yukichi!
**[02:32] Saku**
Today's pay day, so we should
do *that* when I get home! *That*!

Wait! Hold on! Don't be so hasty!

My sake and snacks!
**[06:23] Narration**
*Currently adjusting her clasp.*
**[06:25] Saku**
I'm sure I gained weight from all
the work outings and our company trip!
***SIGN*** Right?
**[06:31] Saku**
It'll go right back down as long as
I use the stairs or do some fast walking.
***SIGN*** Right?
**[06:36] Saku**

It'll be fine!

So, please!
**[06:43] Saku**
Give it back! If I can't enjoy my
dinner and evening drink, I—
**[06:50] Saku**
What's the point of working
so hard day after day?
**[07:00] Saku**
Starting tomorrow,
I'll start an exercise regimen!
**[07:04] Saku**
Turn off the light.
**[07:08] Saku; Internal**
* First of all, I'll wake up thirty*
* minutes early and walk to the station.*
**[07:12] Saku; Internal**
*Maybe I should wear sneakers.*
**[07:16] Saku; Internal**
* I'll carry some mineral water*
* with me and then...*
**[07:20] Saku; Internal**
* How many calories does*
* walking thirty minutes burn?!*
**[07:24] Saku; Internal**
*Hm? What are diet shoes?*
**[07:27] Saku; Internal**
* You can burn more calories*
* just by wearing them?!*
**[07:30] Saku; Internal**
*How perfect is that! I'll buy a pair!*
**[07:44] Saku**
I overslept!
**[07:46] Saku**
Taxi!
**[08:02] Saku; Internal**
*I barely made it.*
**[08:04] Saku; Internal**
* Looks like early morning*
* exercise isn't for me.*
**[08:14] Employee 1**
Oh, there she is! Fukuzawa-san!
**[08:18] Employee 1**
Thank you so much for helping me prepare

**[08:23] Employee 2**
Thank you for taking

**[08:27] Employee 3**

Wait! Hold on! Not that! I'll die!
**[09:17] Saku**
Cold! Cold! Cold! Cold!
**[09:20] Saku**
I'm really gonna die!
**[09:23] Saku**
And when did you learn to ride a bicycle?!
**[09:29] Narration**
*One month later.*
**[09:33] Saku**
I've gone down 600 grams!
***SIGN*** In order to maintain privacy,
certain parts of the image have been altered.
**[09:36] Saku**
It's all thanks to you watching over
my nightly jogging and muscle training!
**[09:40] Saku**
At this rate, I can continue losing weight
slowly without limiting my food intake.
**[09:47] Saku**
I shouldn't take it slow!
***SIGN*** ° Yukichi
**[09:49] Saku**
That's not cute at all!
**[09:52] Saku**
* I immediately limited my*
* alcohol and food intake.*
**[09:56] Saku**
*I returned to my regular weight in one week.*
**[09:59] Saku**
*Yukichi's form went back to normal, too.*
***SIGN*** Rub Rub

Thank goodness. Thank goodness.
***SIGN*** He actually liked it a bit
**[10:18] Yuri**
So cold.
**[10:20] Yuri**
I'm home!
**[10:21] Yuri's Mom**
Huh? Yuri?
**[10:23] Yuri's Mom**
You should tell me if you're
planning to come home for a visit!
**[10:27] Yuri's Mom**
There's nothing left here for you to eat.
**[10:30] Yuri**
I don't need any food.
**[10:31] Yuri**
I just came by to hand over your
souvenirs from my company trip.
**[10:34] Yuri's Mom**
Oh, a company trip!
**[10:36] Yuri's Mom**
It almost sounds like you're a working adult!
**[10:39] Yuri**
I *am* a working adult.
**[10:41] Yuri**
There's a souvenir from the senpai
I gave the chigura to, too.
**[10:45] Yuri's Mom**
Thanks!
**[10:48] Rio**
Oh, Yuri-nee. Long time no see!
**[10:50] Yuri**
Oh, Rio! You're here, too!
**[10:53] Rio**
I'm visiting.
**[10:54] Rio**
Seeing you in a suit is new.
***SIGN*** Cousins
**[10:56] Yuri**
Does it look good on me?
**[10:58] Rio**
Yeah, you're like a working adult.
**[11:00] Yuri**
I *am* a working adult.
**[11:03] Yuri**
It's so warm!
**[11:05] Yuri**
Rio, I heard you started living on your own?
**[11:08] Rio**
Yeah. When Auntie found out,
she said I could have the TV in your room.
**[11:13] Yuri**
Oh, that thing.
**[11:14] Yuri**
Take it, take it.
**[11:17] Yuri**
Are your hands still full
with part-time jobs?
**[11:20] Rio**
Yeah.
**[11:21] Rio**
To the point that other part-timers
think of me as a freeter.
**[11:25] Yuri**
You work too much!
**[11:27] Yuri**
You should spend your
school days falling in love.
**[11:29] Yuri**
You'll barely have any chances
once you become a working adult.
**[11:33] Yuri**
I thirst for love! You should
share some love stories with me.
**[11:37] Rio**
Love stories?!
**[11:46] (Flashback) Ex-Boyfriend**
What the hell are you doing?!
**[11:48] (Flashback) Ex-Boyfriend**
I'm gonna kill you!
**[11:49] (Flashback) Saku**
Perfect, you've been recorded.
**[11:53] Rio**
There's someone I'm a little interested in.
**[11:56] Yuri**
Seriously?!
**[11:57] Yuri**
Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh?
**[11:58] Yuri**
What kinda person?!
**[12:00] Rio**
Well, I forgot to ask for a name...
**[12:03] Yuri**
A customer where you work?!
**[12:05] Rio**
Yeah, the customer happened to pass by
when I was arguing with my ex-boyfriend
**[12:10] Rio**
and saved me.
**[12:14] Rio**
Maybe some kind of martial artist?
A really strong one.
**[12:21] Yuri**
What?!
**[12:22] Yuri**
That sounds like a fateful encounter!
**[12:25] Saku**
Please stop.

But that's nice!
**[12:46] Yuri**
A skilled, strong, and
kind person sounds so nice.
**[12:49] Yuri**
I'm jealous.
**[12:51] Rio**
Yuri-nee, are you currently single?
**[12:53] Yuri**
I have been for years.
**[12:55] Yuri**
I have bad luck with men.
**[12:59] Yuri**
I can't find any good ones.
**[13:01] Rio**
Yeah.
**[13:02] Yuri**
I'm starting to think I should look
for someone of the same sex.
**[13:07] Yuri**
It's so hard to get married.
**[13:10] Rio; Internal**
* Is it okay to say I was*
* thinking the same thing here?*
**[13:15] Rio; Internal**
* No, I'm sure the atmosphere'll*
* get weird. I shouldn't...*
**[13:19] Yuri**
Wait, what's with this weird atmosphere?!
**[13:21] Yuri**
Don't shrink away from me!
**[13:22] Yuri**
I'm still in the joking phase for now!
**[13:25] Rio**
N-No, I wasn't shrinking away from you!
**[13:27] Rio**
I w-was just thinking that you
have a flexible way of thinking!
**[13:30] Yuri**
Really?
**[13:32] Yuri**
Well, you should try to find someone
before you wind up like me.
**[13:36] Rio**
Yeah. I have no idea what'll happen,
**[13:41] Rio**
but I want to give a proper thanks
the next time we meet
**[13:45] Rio**
and actually get a name this time.
**[13:49] Yuri**
That's the spirit!
**[13:51] Yuri**
Tell me if anything happens!
**[13:53] Rio**
Sure thing.
**[13:54] Rio; Internal**
* But the cat is usually the one*
* who shops where I work.*
**[13:58] Rio; Internal**
*I'll just have to bide my time and wait.*
**[14:01] Rio; Internal**
*I should ask for more shifts.*

I was about to spit it out!
**[16:12] Saku**
Huh?
**[16:13] Saku**
Is it okay for humans to eat cat grass?
**[16:17] Saku**
There are a lot of things that people
eat that are poisonous to cats.

Like onions and chocolate...
***SIGN*** Cat grass
**[16:28] Saku**
What? What's cat grass?!
Is that the scientific name?
**[16:32] Saku**
It is the general term
for grasses cats enjoy eating
**[16:36] Saku**
and does not refer to
a specific type of grass?
**[16:39] Saku**
So, in the end, what is it?!
**[16:42] Saku**
I think my stomach is starting to hurt.
**[16:46] Saku**
Wait! Where are you calling?!
**[16:49] Saku**
No ambulances!
**[16:51] Saku**
I'm still conscious and
have no problems walking!
**[16:55] Saku**
And I can't tell them that my stomach
hurts because I stupidly ate some cat grass.
**[17:04] Mei**
Oh, the type of cat grass
seeds I gave Yukichi-chan?
**[17:08] Mei**
It's a blend of oat grass and barley grass.
**[17:12] Mei**
Oh, did you accidentally eat it, Saku-chan?

**[00:16] Oshiro**
It's Monday. This sucks. I'm tired.
I don't want to work.
**[00:19] Oshiro**
I can't believe it's still
so early in the afternoon.
**[00:22] Oshiro**
I want to go home.
**[00:28] Yuri**
It's the Monday blues...
**[00:31] Yuri**
The malaise I'm feeling is unbearable, too.
**[00:34] Saku**
Yeah, the first day of the work
week is always rough.
**[00:37] Oshiro**
Yeah, right. Fukuzawa, you come
in every Monday raring to go.
**[00:43] Oshiro**
You looked so alert this morning!
**[00:46] Yuri**
Are you doing something to fight the blues?
**[00:48] Saku**
Huh? Not really.
**[00:52] Oshiro**
Maybe you're drinking some
super rare enzyme or something!
**[00:56] Yuri**
Or maybe you see an osteopathic
doctor that has godly hands?!
**[00:59] Saku**
What kind of image do you have of me?!
**[01:03] Saku; Internal**
**Am *I doing anything?*
**[01:10] Narration**
*Sunday night.*
**[01:12] (Flashback) Saku**
It's coming!
**[01:14] (Flashback) Saku**
It's almost here!
**[01:15] (Flashback) Saku**
Monday is almost here!
**[01:18] (Flashback) Saku**
Who said it has to come?!
**[01:20] (Flashback) Saku**
It's crazy that we only have two days to
rest when we work so hard for five days!
**[01:23] (Flashback) Saku**
I don't want to squeeze
into a full train car again!

*Sunday night, continued...*
**[03:05] (Flashback) Saku**
I don't want to squeeze
into a full train car again!
**[03:08] (Flashback) Saku**
Monday is almost here!
**[03:10] (Flashback) Saku**
Who said it has to come?!
**[03:12] (Flashback) Saku**
It's crazy that we only have two days to

*This is Sa*ae!*
***SIGN*** Bwap
***SIGN*** Push
**[03:19] (Flashback) Saku**
I just heard Sa*ae-san's voice.
***SIGN*** Fluster
**[03:23] (Flashback) Saku**
It's all over!
**[03:25] Narration**
*Sunday, that is.*
**[03:27] (Flashback) Saku**
I want to go back to Friday night!
**[03:29] (Flashback) Saku**
Or I want to jump forward
to next Friday night!
**[03:32] (Flashback) Saku**
Why can't every day be Saturday?!
***SIGN*** Poff
***SIGN*** Push...
**[03:37] (Flashback) Saku**
What're you...
***SIGN*** Breathe in Breath out
***SIGN*** Sniff
**[03:44] (Flashback) Saku**
It smells so good.
**[03:46] (Flashback) Saku**
Thanks, I feel so much calmer.
***SIGN*** Sniff
**[03:49] (Flashback) Saku**
Why do your toe beans smell like happiness?
**[03:54] (Flashback) Saku**
They smell like the sun,
but a little sweeter.
***SIGN*** Sniff
***SIGN*** Not sure how to
feel about this
**[03:58] (Flashback) Saku**
Something like popcorn.
**[04:02] (Flashback) Saku**
I want to carry around this
scent and warmth with me.
**[04:05] (Flashback) Saku**
Maybe mankind needs to carry around
cats instead of smartphones?
**[04:10] (Flashback) Saku**
I could survive a full train car with...
**[04:13] (Flashback) Saku**
Full train car?
**[04:17] (Flashback) Saku**
A full train car?!
**[04:19] (Flashback) Saku**
Monday is coming!
***SIGN*** Huff
**[04:28] Narration**
*Three hours later...*
**[04:31] (Flashback) Saku**
I want to live in the countryside.
**[04:33] (Flashback) Saku**
I don't want to live such
a busy lifestyle in the city.
**[04:36] (Flashback) Saku**
I want a slow lifestyle where two train cars
***SIGN*** Whimper
**[04:39] (Flashback) Saku**
are spacious enough to
fit all the commuters.
**[04:42] (Flashback) Saku**
I've always wanted to live in
an old house that's been renovated.
***SIGN*** Warmth
**[04:46] (Flashback) Saku**
Maybe you can open up a small
Japanese-style restaurant, Yukichi.
**[04:49] (Flashback) Saku**
We could have a little
vegetable field in the forest.
**[04:55] Narration**
*The forest.*
**[04:57] Narration**
*Bears.*
**[05:01] (Flashback) Hunter**
It's a bear!
***SIGN*** Meow
**[05:04] Narration**
*Shoo*ing accident!*
**[05:06] (Flashback) Saku**
Huh? Why not?!
**[05:08] (Flashback) Saku**
Is it because you're so
attached to our house?!
**[05:12] (Flashback) Saku**
Ugh, I can't sleep.
**[05:15] (Flashback) Saku**
Can I drink a beer?
**[05:17] (Flashback) Saku**
I'll brush my teeth again afterward.
**[05:21] (Flashback) Saku**
But I can't fall asleep at this rate!
***SIGN*** Purr
**[05:28] (Flashback) Saku**
What's with this superbly
comfortable vibration?
**[05:36] Narration**
*Mission complete.*
**[05:47] Saku**
I don't think I do anything
particularly special.
**[05:54] Saku**
Well, maybe my cat lets me
cuddle more on Sundays?
**[06:00] Oshiro**
It gets more clingy because
it knows you're leaving?
**[06:03] Oshiro**
How cute!
**[06:05] Saku**
No, he's not really that type of cat.
**[06:09] Yuri**
Cats are full of healing properties.
**[06:12] Yuri**
I heard that their toe beans and purring
have huge effects on people!
**[06:17] Yuri**
I've read that the pheromones from their
toe beans have a calming effect on people.
**[06:22] Yuri**
Their purring is thought to
alleviate stress, expedite healing,
**[06:26] Yuri**
and strengthen the immune system.
**[06:29] Yuri**
The effects are significant enough that there's
even research for the use of cat therapy!
**[06:34] Oshiro**
Aren't cats a little too overpowered?!
Maybe I should get one, too.
**[06:36] Saku; Internal**
*So...*
**[06:38] Yuri**
You'll end up an old maid.
**[06:39] Oshiro**
What?!
**[06:39] Saku; Internal**
*I was getting cat therapy!*
**[06:43] Narration**
*A world where every person carries a cat.*
***SIGN*** Sniff
Snort
Huff
Sniff
Heave
**[06:49] Saku**
Wouldn't that solve everything?!
**[06:52] Saku**
Am I a genius?!
**[06:55] Narration**
*The eyes of a cat looking at an idiot.*
**[06:58] Train Announcer**
*Thank you very much.*
**[07:08] Saku; Internal**
* Lately, Yukichi has been making*
* some weird rhythmic noises.*
**[07:13] Saku; Internal**
* He does it while he's doing housework*
* or if he's in a good mood.*
**[07:19] Saku; Internal**
* I've been writing it off*
* as some random humming, but...*
**[07:23] Saku; Internal**
* I realized something after going to*
* the concert at the aquarium*
**[07:26] Saku; Internal**
*and listening to their music a lot.*
**[07:30] Saku; Internal**
*He's beatboxing to UMYU-Sea's songs!*
**[07:34] Saku; Internal**
*And the thing he's doing right now...*
**[07:37] UMYU-Sea**
*We're not clione sea angels!*
**[07:42] UMYU-Sea**
*We're...*
**[07:43] UMYU-Sea**
*We're...*
**[07:44] UMYU-Sea**
*Idols of the sea!*
**[07:45] Saku; Internal**
* It's their debut single,*
* "We're Not Clione Sea Angels"!*
**[07:52] Saku; Internal**
*He's so talented!*
**[07:53] Saku; Internal**
*This is a great song. I love it, too!*
**[07:56] Saku; Internal**
*I want to tell him that, but I can't!*
**[08:01] Saku; Internal**
* Last time, when I snuck a shot of Yukichi*
* dancing since he was so darn cute...*
**[08:13] Saku**
No! No! No! No!
**[08:13] Saku; Internal**
* He got so mad he never*
* danced like that again.*
**[08:15] Saku**
I'm not deleting it! I'm not!
**[08:20] Saku; Internal**
* If he thinks I'm teasing him again,*
* he'll never let me hear his beatboxing!*
**[08:27] Saku; Internal**
* Maybe it's okay as long as it*
* doesn't seem like I'm teasing him?*
**[08:31] Saku; Internal**
*Yeah, like...*
**[08:35] Saku**
That was some amazing
beatboxing! It was so moving!
***SIGN*** Compliment
**[08:40] Saku; Internal**
*Yeah, he'd definitely get angry.*
**[08:44] Saku; Internal**
*Maybe I could join in nonchalantly?*
**[08:47] Saku**
We're not clione sea angels!
***SIGN*** Anger
**[08:52] Saku; Internal**
*How about adding an offhanded request?*
**[08:54] Saku**
Oh! I want to hear
"Sesame and Salt Parade" next!
***SIGN*** Anger
**[08:59] Saku; Internal**
* Maybe I should challenge him*
* to a sudden beatbox battle?*
***SIGN*** Doom Doom Don
Tsk Tsk Housh Yeah!
***SIGN*** Anger
**[09:06] Saku; Internal**
*It's no use!*
**[09:07] Saku; Internal**
* I can't think of a way to bring it up*
* without being annoying!*
**[09:10] Saku; Internal**
*And I've never beatboxed before!*
**[09:16] Saku; Internal**
* He'll close his heart to me*
* forever if I'm too careless.*
**[09:20] Saku; Internal**
* I'm sure the door to his heart will be*
* harder to open than Ama-no-Iwato.*
**[09:26] Saku; Internal**
*Ama-no-Iwato?!*
**[09:35] TV**
*We're not clione sea angels!*
**[09:39] TV**
*We're...*
**[09:40] TV**
*We're...*
**[09:42] TV**
*Idols of the sea!*
***SIGN*** Sway...
**[09:49] TV**
*All of the sea and the sky.*
**[09:50] Saku; Internal**
*All right! He took the bait!*
**[09:51] Saku; Internal**
*Now, join me, Yukichi!*
**[09:53] TV**
*We'll protect all of the earth.*
***SIGN*** Yank
***SIGN*** Pull
**[09:58] Saku**
Uh, Yukichi?
**[09:59] Saku**
Yukichi-san?
***SIGN*** Rewind 30 seconds
***SIGN*** Beep
**[10:03] Saku; Internal**
*No. This isn't it.*
***SIGN*** Stare...
**[10:05] Saku; Internal**
*This isn't what I was hoping for!*
**[10:08] Saku; Internal**
*Hey!*
**[10:10] Saku**
*I was forced to practice for two hours...*
***SIGN*** Wheeze Pant
**[10:20] Narration**
*Doesn't realize he's doing it out loud.*
**[10:25] Saku**
I'm home, Yukichi.
**[10:29] Saku**
I'm already at my limit.
I can't move another muscle.
**[10:34] Saku**
I don't even have the energy to eat.
**[10:39] Saku**
Th-The smell of pork soup,
hokke fish, and Chinese salad!
**[10:44] Saku**
Thanks for the meal!
**[10:48] Saku**
So delicious!
**[10:49] Saku**
Eating Yukichi's food is
the best when you're tired.
**[10:53] Saku**
I can feel the warmth!
**[10:56] Saku**
Do you have another
serving of this pork soup?!
**[11:02] Saku**
Huh? What's this?!
***SIGN*** Hmph!!
**[11:04] Saku**
I'm allowed to drink another one today?!
**[11:07] Saku**
What's going on?!
**[11:26] Saku**
It's the weekend!
**[11:28] Saku**
I'm going to laze around all day!
**[11:31] Saku**
Ow!
***SIGN*** Gonk
**[11:32] Saku**
What?!
**[11:34] Saku**
You should let me pet you a bit!
**[11:39] Saku**
What's the point of having such
luxurious fur if I can't pet it?
**[11:42] Saku**
Stingy!
***SIGN*** Zmoosh...
**[11:45] Saku**
I'm sorry for being cocky!
**[11:47] Saku**
A cat's luxurious fur is all for itself!
**[11:51] Saku**
I'm so sorry!
**[11:54] Narration**
*Sunday.*
**[11:59] Saku**
I slept so well.
**[12:01] Saku**
It's already the afternoon.
**[12:02] Saku**
Yukichi?
**[12:06] Saku**
Huh? Did he go shopping?
**[12:09] Saku**
Oh, I see brunch waiting for me!
**[12:11] Saku**
Thanks for the mea...
**[12:14] Narration**
*Yukichi's purse.*
**[12:16] Saku**
Huh?
**[12:18] Saku**
Huh? Huh?
**[12:19] Saku**
His purse?! There's money in it!
**[12:21] Saku**
Huh?!
**[12:23] Saku**
Yukichi actually forgot something?!
**[12:26] Saku;Internal**
*Maybe he has a fever?!*
**[12:28] Saku;Internal**
* People say that animals tend to*
* hide the fact that they're sick!*
**[12:32] Saku;Internal**
*No. No. I'm probably overreacting.*
**[12:36] Saku;Internal**
*Huh?*
**[12:38] Saku;Internal**
*But where do I take him if he's really sick?!*
**[12:43] Saku;Internal**
*NASA?!*
**[12:44] Saku**
Yukichi!
**[12:51] Saku**
Oh! Nishina-san!
**[12:52] Rio**
Welco...
**[12:55] Rio**
Whoa! Yukichi-san's...
**[12:57] Rio**
I-It's been a while.
**[13:00] Saku**
Oh! I'm sorry about leaving
you behind like that last time.
**[13:03] (Flashback) Rio**
S-Someone! Help!
**[13:05] (Flashback) Ex-Boyfriend**
A bear?!
**[13:07] (Flashback) Rio**
Don't call me stupid!
**[13:09] (Flashback) Ex-Boyfriend**
You stupid bear!
**[13:32] Saku**
Were you all right after?
**[13:35] Rio**
I really wanted to thank you
for helping me last time.
**[13:39] Rio**
He actually stopped bothering me after that.
**[13:42] Rio**
Please let me thank you properly sometime!
**[13:44] Saku**
No, no! You don't need to do that!
**[13:46] Saku**
I even let you take care
of the police last time...
**[13:49] Rio**
U-Um, may I ask you for your name?!
**[13:52] Saku**
Oh, I'm Fukuzawa.
**[13:54] Saku; Internal**
* This reminds me of*
* the first time I met Yuri-chan.*
**[13:57] Yuri**
Senpai!
**[13:58] Rio**
Fukuzawa-san...
**[14:00] Rio**
Oh, so, Yukichi-san must be Fukuzawa Yuki—
**[14:05] Saku**
That's right.
**[14:06] Saku**
My parents were planning to give me
that name if I'd been a boy.
**[14:10] Saku**
That's right! Did Yukichi stop by here?!
**[14:13] Rio**
Y-Yes, he did.
**[14:17] Rio**
He was getting a very warm welcome
from our manager over there...
**[14:21] Manager**
Thank you for visiting our store once again!
**[14:24] Manager**
Did you have any problems
during your visit today?
**[14:25] Saku; Internal**
*Why?!*
**[14:26] Manager**
Our cat goods are fully
stocked today, as well!
**[14:26] Rio**
Our manager really likes cats. I'm sorry.
**[14:30] Saku**
Oh, no. Thank you.
**[14:30] Manager**
Please take your time to browse our wares!
**[14:32] Saku**
I'm sorry for letting a cat shop
at a store that sells food.
**[14:36] Rio**
The manager allows it.
**[14:39] Rio**
I'm sure it's fine since we've never
gotten a complaint about him, either.
**[14:42] Rio**
Actually, people seem to like his visits.
**[14:45] Saku**
I-I see. Thank goodness.
**[14:49] Saku; Internal**
* We live together, but there's*
* a lot I don't know about him.*
**[14:53] Saku; Internal**
* He's more familiar with*
* the neighborhood than I am.*
**[14:57] Saku**
Oh, I should go say hello to the manager.
**[15:03] Saku; Internal**
*As his owner.*
**[15:04] Rio**
Oh, wait! If possible, please stay hidden.
**[15:08] Rio**
It'll be really gross if he discovers
new information about Yukichi-san
**[15:12] Rio**
and he gets even more fixated.
**[15:15] Saku; Internal**
* Looks like he's way more familiar*
* with others than I thought.*
**[15:19] Rio**
Oh! He's finally escaped!
**[15:22] Saku**
Hey, Yukichi!
**[15:25] Rio**
*Good work.*
**[15:29] Saku**
You forgot your purse, so I brought it over.
**[15:32] Saku**
Jeez! How can you go shopping without money?
**[15:36] Rio**
Money? Huh? But Yukichi-san...
***SIGN*** Swp...
**[15:42] Rio**
Doesn't he pay with his card now?
**[15:44] Saku; Internal**
*Cashless?!*
**[15:47] Rio**
Thank you.
**[15:49] Rio**
He started using it right after we
started our reward points program.
**[15:53] Rio**
He uses the point card and
coupons very skillfully.
**[15:56] Saku**
Such a fearsome cat!
**[16:03] Saku**
I jumped to conclusions,
but I'm glad it wasn't anything serious.
**[16:07] Saku**
I thought you were running a fever
when I discovered you forgot something.
**[16:11] Saku**
I'm sure there aren't many veterinarians
that could examine you, Yukichi.
**[16:15] Saku**
What should we do in the future?
***SIGN*** Nakayoshi Animal Hospital
**[16:21] Saku**
No way!
**[16:22] Saku**
That's a normal animal hospital!
**[16:25] Saku**
I only took you there once
when you were a kitten!
**[16:28] Saku**
Let's hurry home!
**[16:29] Saku**
I'm hungry!
**[16:33] Saku**
Come on! Rare! Come on!
**[16:36] Narration**
*Since she brought the cash,*
***SIGN*** Gacha

Gacha

Come on! Rare! Come on!
**[16:38] Narration**
* she gave Yukichi permission for extra*
* tries on the UMYU-Sea gacha machine.*
**[16:45] Yukichi; Internal**
*I am a cat.*
**[16:48] Yukichi; Internal**
* Ever since that snowy night,*
* I've found it to be strange.*
**[16:58] Yukichi; Internal**
* Why doesn't anyone come to collect*
* the garbage from this trash dump?*
**[17:04] Yukichi; Internal**
* And why doesn't this human*
* mind this wretched state?!*
**[17:11] Yukichi; Internal**
* Now she's even sleeping*
* at the front entrance?!*
***SIGN*** Meow
**[17:18] Saku**
Huh? It's morning?!
**[17:20] Saku**
Whoa! Sorry, Yukichi!
**[17:22] Saku**
You must be hungry!
**[17:23] Saku**
I'll pour you some kibble
and water right now!
**[17:25] Yukichi; Internal**
*Though she never forgets
to take care of *me*.*
**[17:30] Saku**
Hurry! Hurry!
**[17:32] Yukichi; Internal**
*She fails to take care of herself.*
**[17:36] Yukichi; Internal**
*A stray cat knows.*
**[17:39] Saku**
Shoot! I'm missing a button! Oh, who cares!
**[17:39] Yukichi; Internal**
* A creature that cannot even take care*
* of itself cannot live for long.*
**[17:43] Yukichi; Internal**
*She'll just drag me down with her if I stay.*
**[17:46] Yukichi; Internal**
*I should leave as soon as I find the chance.*
**[17:49] Saku**
I'm off!
**[17:58] Yukichi; Internal**
*The perfect chance!*
**[18:00] Yukichi; Internal**
*Now, is the time to leave!*
**[18:08] Mei**
My, what a lovely day.
**[18:12] Yukichi; Internal**
*That human is carrying trash bags with her.*
**[18:15] Yukichi; Internal**
*Today must be trash day!*
**[18:19] Yukichi; Internal**
* Well, I can take care of a bag*
* to pay her back for her kindness.*
**[18:41] Yukichi; Internal**
* It was so easy.*
* Anyone should be able to do this.*
**[18:45] Yukichi; Internal**
*I should take another out.*
**[18:48] Yukichi; Internal**
*No! No!*
**[18:49] Yukichi; Internal**
*What am I trying to go back for?!*
**[18:53] Mei**
Oh, no.
**[18:55] Mei**
Saku-chan left her door open.
**[18:58] Mei**
She really doesn't look after herself.
**[19:01] Yukichi; Internal**
*So that human is called Saku.*
**[19:03] Mei**
I should at least close the door for her.
**[19:07] Yukichi; Internal**
*Please do so.*
**[19:09] Yukichi; Internal**
*"Saku."*
**[19:10] Yukichi; Internal**
*I will remember your name...*
**[19:18] Yukichi; Internal**
* ...though we will probably*
* never cross paths again.*
**[19:29] (Flashback) Saku**
I'm late!
**[19:30] (Flashback) Saku**
I fell asleep in my suit!
**[19:33] (Flashback) Saku**
A c-c-cockroach in the b-b-bathroom!
***SIGN*** Yukichi's House
**[19:39] (Flashback) Saku**
Yukichi...
**[19:49] (Flashback) Saku**
I bought some cans of cat food!
**[20:11] (Flashback) Saku**
If you have nowhere to go,
how about coming with me?

Eat to your heart's content!

It's a present from the UMYU-Sea show!
**[04:29] Yume**
Why do you like Sea Bunny-chan

**[04:32] Yume**
Is it 'cause she's in the middle?
**[04:39] Sea Bunny**
*The stuff I make*
**[04:41] (Flashback) Sea Bunny**
is something that even
little kids can make!
**[04:43] (Flashback) Sea Bunny**
It's the most powerful food on Earth!
**[04:53] Yume**
Oh, yeah!
**[04:54] Yume**
Do you wanna see a recording of the show?
**[04:56] Yume**
They allowed cameras this time!

Sorry! My voice is really loud!
**[05:10] Sea Bunny**
I'm making the world's most
powerful food today, rice balls!
**[05:17] Akane**
You really love rice balls, Sea Bunny.
**[05:21] Strawberry**
Is it because you have
the same color scheme?
**[05:23] Sea Bunny**
*That's not it!*
**[05:25] Sea Bunny**
* You can put all sorts*

**[05:28] Strawberry**

Morning, Yukichi.
**[06:24] Saku**
Where's the thing?
**[06:27] Saku**
Oh, that's it! Thanks!
**[06:30] Saku**
Yukichi, put that on!
The thing we watched yesterday...
**[06:33] Saku**
What was it again?
**[06:36] Saku**
Thanks! That's it!
**[06:39] Saku**
Yukichi, that thing...
**[06:41] Saku**
The thing over there...
**[06:42] Saku**
This's it!
**[06:43] Saku**
Yukichi!
**[07:05] Saku**
Do you forget how to speak
Japanese over the weekend?
**[07:09] Oshiro**
Just how little are you speaking?
**[07:12] Saku**
I can't come up with any
nouns for some reason.
**[07:15] Oshiro**
Want to go to a singles meetup?
**[07:17] Oshiro**
That's dangerous.
**[07:18] Oshiro**
You're going to start
forgetting important things
**[07:21] Oshiro**
and eventually forget how
to use your vocal cords.
**[07:23] Saku**
What?! It's not that bad!
**[07:26] Saku**
It's not like I'm not talking
at all. My vocal cords still work!
**[07:29] Oshiro**
Who do you talk to when you're living alone?
**[07:31] Oshiro**
Oh!
**[07:33] Saku**
Huh?
**[07:33] Oshiro**
Your cat. You must be talking to your cat!
**[07:36] Saku**
I-Isn't that normal?!
**[07:38] Oshiro**
You're in trouble!
**[07:40] Oshiro**
At this rate, you'll start
talking to the TV, too!
**[07:43] Saku**
How rude!
**[07:44] Saku**
I don't talk to myself...
**[07:46] Saku**
And then! And then!
**[07:47] Narration**
*One-way conversation.*
**[07:49] Saku**
Actually, maybe I do talk to myself...
**[07:51] Oshiro**
What do you mean maybe?!
**[07:53] Oshiro**
If you aren't careful,
you're going to go senile!
**[07:56] Train Announcer**
*The rapid-service train will soon arrive.*
**[08:04] Oshiro**
*Come to think of it,*
**[08:05] (Flashback) Oshiro**
I've heard of people using their
smartphone's AI to practice talking!
**[08:11] (Flashback) Oshiro**
Give it a try!
**[08:13] Saku**
Okay! H-Hey, Siro!
**[08:16] Siro**
*Hello.*
**[08:17] Saku**
Uh...
**[08:18] Siro**
*I'm sorry. I didn't quite hear you.*
**[08:21] Saku; Internal**
*I can't think of a question to ask!*
**[08:24] Saku**
Hey, Yukichi! What should I ask Siro?
**[08:24] Siro**
*I'm sorry. I don't understand.*
**[08:30] Saku**
That's right! The goal is to
prevent my mind from slowing down!
***SIGN*** Ta-dah
**[08:34] Saku**
I should just play a game that uses my brain!
**[08:38] Saku**
Let's fight fair and square, Yukichi!
**[08:40] Narration**
*Concentration.*
**[08:42] Saku**
Rock, paper, and scissors!
**[08:45] Saku**
I won!
**[08:48] Saku**
You can keep the cards
if the numbers match.
**[08:52] Saku**
Well, then!
**[08:54] Saku**
Here and here!
**[08:57] Saku**
Oh, I failed.
**[09:01] Saku**
Your turn, Yukichi!
**[09:08] Saku**
Oh, that's right!
**[09:09] Saku**
Just like that!
**[09:10] Saku**
Oh, you're good!
**[09:11] Saku**
Right! Right!
**[09:16] Narration**
*Complete victory.*
***SIGN*** Ugh...
**[09:17] Saku**
O-One more time...
**[09:27] Narration**
*Complete victory two.*
**[09:29] Saku**
Let's try a different game...
**[09:33] Saku**
I'm going to go buy some!
**[09:35] Narration**
*Six hours later.*
**[09:37] Saku**
Okay, I should just give up.
**[09:42] Saku**
Whether you win or lose, they say
it still trains your brain...
**[09:49] Saku**
But it's no fun if
I have no chance at winning!
**[09:52] Saku**
I lost every game!
***SIGN*** Weep
**[09:53] Saku**
Please take care of me if
I go senile at my age, Yukichi!
**[09:59] Saku**
I mean, you know exactly what I mean
when I say "this" or "that" all the time...
**[10:04] Saku**
I don't properly talk at all
during the weekend, right?
**[10:09] Saku**
I'm forgetting how to speak
Japanese over the weekend.
***SIGN*** Chill
**[10:16] Saku**
We're still going to play?!
**[10:19] Narration**
* Yukichi's spartan brain training*
* lasted until late into the night.*
**[10:24] Narration**
*Afterwards...*
**[10:28] Narration**
*Saury rice.*
**[10:29] Narration**
*...there was a sharp increase...*
**[10:33] Narration**
*Sardine ball soup.*
**[10:35] Narration**
*...in fatty fish dishes.*
**[10:38] Narration**
*Yellowtail and daikon.*
***SIGN*** Sip...
**[10:41] Saku**
So good!
**[10:43] Saku**
You're really into cooking fish lately!
***SIGN*** Gloom
**[10:53] Yuri**
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
**[10:57] Saku**
It's okay, Yuri-chan.
**[10:59] Saku**
Everyone'll forget a little
mistake like that right away...
**[11:02] Saku**
It was a little scary, but we
managed to fix it before shipment.
**[11:07] Saku**
Safe! Safe!
**[11:08] Oshiro**
Yeah.
**[11:09] Oshiro**
And I got the rare chance to see our cool
and competent newbie on the verge of tears!
**[11:13] Saku**
Oshiro-san!
**[11:15] Saku**
C-Come on! How about a bite
of something from my lunch box?
**[11:20] Oshiro**
What do you have?
**[11:22] Saku**
Today I have fried ham cutlets,
carrots and burdock root,
**[11:26] Saku**
and egg omelet!
**[11:29] Yuri**
Egg omelet?
**[11:32] Oshiro**
She responded! The egg omelet!
**[11:34] Oshiro**
Stuff it in her mouth!
**[11:35] Saku**
Yes, sir!
***SIGN*** Munch
**[11:40] Yuri**
It's delicious.
**[11:42] Saku**
Good for you! Cheer up!
**[11:46] Oshiro**
Give me a bite, too!
**[11:48] Saku**
You too, Oshiro-san?!
**[11:50] Oshiro**
Well, the way you eat your food
makes it seem so delicious!
**[11:55] Oshiro**
I've always wanted to taste your food.
**[11:59] Saku**
Here you go.
**[12:00] Oshiro**
Thanks for the bite!
**[12:07] Oshiro**
It's really good!
**[12:09] Oshiro**
This is amazing, Fukuzawa!
**[12:13] Saku**

**[12:39] Oshiro/Yuri**
Huh?
**[12:40] Oshiro**
So you just eyeball
the amount of ingredients?!
**[12:43] Yuri**
You're like a highly-skilled chef!
**[12:45] Oshiro/Yuri**
That's amazing!
**[12:46] Saku; Internal**
*What?!*
**[12:48] Train Announcer**
* This train will stop at each*

*And I'm not saying she needs to thank me...*

you're some kinda big shot?!
**[14:58] (Flashback) Landlord**

You got it right today.
