[00:12] Yukichi
    I am a cat.
[00:16] Yukichi
    However, I am no normal cat.
[00:33] Yukichi
    I am...
[00:40] Yukichi
    the most masterful of cats.
[00:45] Yukichi
    A masterful cat knows.
[00:55] Saku
    Yukichi! Your master's home!
[01:02] Saku
    Huh? Are you already asleep?
[01:06] Saku
    Yukichi?
[01:08] Saku
    Hey, Yukichi.
[01:10] Saku
    Hey!
[01:12] Yukichi
    One needs money to survive!
[01:16] Yukichi
    That's why humans go to a place
    called a company to work...
[01:22] Yukichi
    And with the money they earn...
SIGN    Cat Dash
[01:25] Yukichi
    Cat cans are obtained.
[01:29] Yukichi
    In other words, I must have my human work
[01:32] Yukichi
    and make sure she earns plenty of money...
[01:37] Yukichi
    Or we'll straight-up die from starvation!
[01:41] Yukichi
    However, it's quite lamentable that...
[01:45] Yukichi
    my master is a completely
    worthless human being.
[01:53] Yukichi
    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...
[04:10] Saku
    I-I'm gonna die!

[06:11] Saku
    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!
SIGN    G-Korori
[09:10] Saku
    What should I do, Yukichi?!
[09:12] Saku
    Is there any way to erase
    a person's memories?
[09:16] Saku
    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
    and it made you a giant mutant?!
SIGN    Meow
[10:07] 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...
[10:40] Saku
    Cheers!
[10:43] Saku
    Yeah! You're right!
[10:44] Saku
    It's too late to worry about it! Let's drink!
SIGN    She was given alcohol until
    she forgot all about it...
SIGN    G-Korori
[11:00] Saku
    No!
[11:01] Saku
    Don't hunt it, Yukichi!
[11:03] Saku
    Don't tear it apart and eat it!
[11:05] Saku
    But do something about it quickly!

[11:44] Customer 2; Internal
    No way. I must be tired.
[11:46] Customer 2; Internal
    I'm so tired I'm seeing things?!
[11:58] Customer 1; Internal
    People will think I'm crazy
    if I make a fuss here!
[12:01] Customer 2; Internal
    There's no way a cat would stand around
    comparing the weights of cabbages!
[12:07] Customer 1/2; Internal
    And most of all...
[12:09] Customer 1/2; Internal
    Why is it wearing a Japanese apron?!
SIGN    He's wearing it as a "sanitary apron"
    to politely prevent the shedding
     of his fur within the store.

    Manager!
[12:19] Rio
    That cat is here again. What should I do?

    What?!
SIGN    Rio Manager
[12:25] Manager
    As a manager, I need to have
    a proper talk with him!
[12:27] Rio
    You're so impressive, Manager.
[12:29] Manager
    Dear customer!
[12:33] Rio
    Customer?
[12:37] Manager
    Thank you for your regular patronage!
[12:46] Manager
    His toe beans were super squishy!
[12:49] Rio
    Does that mean he's allowed
    to shop in the store?
[12:51] Manager
    Of course!
SIGN    Half Price
[12:55] Rio; Internal
    This is why the manager
    is bad at increasing sales.
[13:00] Rio; Internal
    It's just a guy in a cat suit.
[13:03] Rio; Internal
    I hope the customers
    don't complain about him.
[13:10] Rio; Internal
    His movements are really life-like.
[13:13] Rio; Internal
    Where does he hide the zipper?
[13:16] Rio
    I'm v-very sorry for staring!
[13:19] Rio
    Um, did you sew that yourself?
[13:26] Rio
    No! Not that!
[13:27] Rio
    Well, it's pretty amazing
    you made that yourself, too!
[13:31] Rio; Internal
    He throws me off...
[13:33] Rio; Internal
    Even though he's just
    a weirdo in a cat suit.
[13:36] Rio
    Your total will be 2,560 yen.
[13:39] Rio
    Please show me your point card
    if you have one.
[13:43] Rio
    Oh, we're providing samples
    of the newest Churu sticks
[13:46] Rio
    to customers who buy canned cat food.
[13:48] Rio
    Would you like some?
[13:55] Rio; Internal
    He looks so happy, like it's for himself.
[13:58] Rio; Internal
    This weirdo really throws me off...
[14:01] Rio
    Please come again.
[14:12] Rio
    Manager, I'm heading out now.
[14:15] Rio
    Whoa. Seriously?
[14:16] Rio
    He's just laughing to himself. Gross.
[14:18] Manager
    Oh! Good work today, Rio.
[14:20] Manager
    Don't call me gross!
[14:22] Manager
    I'm reading the survey responses!
[14:24] Manager
    Here! Take a look!
SIGN    Guest Survey
     The kitty was super cute.
     I wanna shop here again.
[14:28] Manager
    I wonder if that cat would
    work as a part-timer.
[14:31] Rio
    No idea. Have a good night.
[14:34] Manager
    You're so cold!
[14:51] Saku
    Hold on a sec! Why are you staring like that?
[14:55] Saku
    Is there something there?!
[14:57] Saku
    Hey, Yukichi.
[14:58] Saku
    Is it a bug, Yukichi?!
[15:04] Saku
    What's the huge sigh for?
SIGN    He noticed the area he just cleaned
    was already dirty with grease...
[15:16] Saku
    This is Fukuzawa from
    the business department.
[15:18] Saku
    We've gotten approval from the venue.

[15:38] Saku
    Let me see.
[15:39] Worker 1
    Yes. I understand.
[15:44] General Manager
    Okay. Perfect.
[15:46] General Manager
    You're even faster at work than usual today.
[15:51] Saku
    It's probably because I got
    a lot of rest this weekend.
[15:57] Saku; Internal
    I feel like I've forgotten
    something, though...
[15:59] General Manager
    Oh, Orizuka-kun.
[16:02] General Manager
    Welcome back from Kyoto.
[16:04] Orizuka
    I just returned.
[16:06] Orizuka
    Excuse me, General Manager.
    May I borrow Fukuzawa now?
[16:12] Orizuka
    Fukuzawa, thank you
    for taking care of Company D.
[16:15] Orizuka
    I have a meeting right after this, so
    you and Shibasaki should go ahead and...
[16:19] Saku
    What should I do, Yukichi?!
[16:20] (Flashback) Saku
    The chief might've visited before!
[16:26] Saku; Internal
    I didn't want to remember!
[16:37] Saku; Internal
    A-Awkward!
[16:39] Saku; Internal
    Super awkward!
[16:41] Saku; Internal
    I wish I could just disappear!
    I want to go home!
[16:45] Saku; Internal
    He's going to think I'm a weirdo
    and the owner of a dirty apartment!
[16:51] Saku; Internal
    I want to go home and eat
    Yukichi's gyoza and drink some beer.
SIGN    Escape.
[16:56] Saku; Internal
    I'll have ramen as a finisher.
[16:58] Orizuka
    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.
[19:18] (Flashback) Saku
    I'm home, Yukichi!
SIGN    Meow
[19:21] (Flashback) Saku
    Ouch! You hit me!
[19:25] (Flashback) Saku
    Why'd you do that?
[19:27] Orizuka; Internal
    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
    is having a live event there.
[21:19] Saku
    What? You know about them, Yukichi?!

    Are they famous? You have a favorite?!
