[00:19] Saku
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.

[03:45] Saku
It's good.
[04:23] Coworker 1
Fukuzawa-san is always so put together.
[04:27] Yuri
And on top of that, she takes
care of a cat. She's too amazing.
[04:31] Coworker 1
She's a perfect example of a masterful woman.
[04:33] Coworker 1
Does she really live by herself?
[04:48] Orizuka
Fukuzawa.
[04:50] Saku

We got invited to Yume-chan's birthday party.

Well, I'm sure that Yume-chan will be
sad, but I'll have to go alone.

Look!
[06:43] Saku
Oh, a costume party.
[06:47] Saku
A costume?
[06:49] Station Announcer
Please wait for the next train.
[06:52] Saku; Internal
A costume party, huh?
[06:54] Saku; Internal
Maybe Yukichi can slip in
without being found out?
[07:08] Saku; Internal
Slip in?! What am I thinking?!
[07:11] Saku; Internal
My conscience won't allow it!
[07:13] Oshiro
So true!
[07:15] Saku
I'll be heading home first.
[07:16] Oshiro
Wow, it's rare for you
to head home so early.
[07:18] Yuri
Great job today.
[07:21] Saku
Yukichi!
[07:23] Saku
It's too dangerous!
[07:24] Saku
It's definitely way too dangerous!
[07:27] Saku
Wait, what are you making?
[07:31] Saku
Huh?! Is that stuffed animal
a present for Yume-chan?!
[07:36] Saku
This is so freaking cute!
[07:39] Saku
It's a mini Yukichi!
[07:41] Saku
Make me one so I can take it to work!
SIGN Social custom
[07:46] Saku
What's that?
[07:48] Saku
Another stuffed animal?
[07:53] Saku
Oh, you made a costume for me?!
[08:00] Saku
I'm a mouse!
[08:01] Saku
This reminds me of my
school cultural festival!
[08:05] Saku
What's this? Is this what we're bringing?
[08:08] Saku
What? I can have a taste?!
[08:10] Saku
These are super cute!
[08:15] Saku
So good!
[08:26] Saku
Yukichi...
[08:27] Saku
Let's go home.
[08:29] Saku
Home! Home! Home! Everyone's gonna find out!
[08:33] Saku
Why'd we show up dressed so confidently?!
[08:37] Saku
And Yume-chan's house is in the neighborhood!
SIGN Yume's House
SIGN Large Street
SIGN Saku's Apartment
[08:41] Narration
Within walking distance!
[08:42] Saku
Worst-case scenario, we might cause
a huge scene and have to move!
[08:47] Yume
Saku-chan! Yuki-chan! You came!
[08:51] Saku
Yume-chan!
[08:52] Child 1
Yume-chan! We're here!
[08:55] Child 2
Hello!
[08:57] Saku
H-Hello!
[08:59] Yume's Mom
It's cold out. Let's hurry inside!
[09:00] Child 2
Wow! He even has cat hands!
[09:03] Saku
Oh, uh, no, we're actually...
[09:05] Yume
Come in! Come in! I'm coming down!
[09:10] Saku
Huh? Uh, wait!
[09:10] Everyone
Sorry for intruding!
[09:12] Yume
Welcome!
[09:20] Saku; Internal
I'm so glad the chief is on a business trip!
[09:27] Everyone
Happy birthday, Yume-chan!
[09:31] Yume
Thank you!
[09:33] Child 1
I'm so jealous, Yume-chan!
[09:33] Child 2
So cute!
[09:35] Witch Mom
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!
SIGN Means no harm
[18:31] Saku; Narration
In the end, he didn't make me one...
[18:35] Station Announcer
Thank you for boarding this train.
[18:53] Yukichi; Internal
Worthless human...
[18:57] Yukichi; Internal
Even for a company drinking party, she's late...
[19:06] Yukichi; Internal
Every single time, she barely
makes it on the last train...
[19:09] Yukichi; Internal
And she usually drinks so much she ends up
passing out at the entrance...
[19:18] Yukichi; Internal
One of these days, she might not even
make it home before passing out.
[19:24] Yukichi; Internal
Forget about being male or female...
She's worthless as a living creature.
[19:29] Yukichi; Internal
At this rate, she'll never find a mate.
[19:36] Saku
Oh, Yukichi?
[19:37] Saku
Well, you know...
[19:39] Saku
I'm just taking a little break
at the park nearby,
[19:44] Saku
but I'm so sleepy...
[19:54] Yukichi; Internal
That fool!
[19:57] Yukichi; Internal
Natural selection culls creatures
with no sense of danger!
[20:19] Yukichi; Internal
I'm definitely hitting that
stupid face of hers today!
[20:27] Saku
Yukichi...
[20:30] Saku
Another serving of rice!
[20:42] Saku
So tasty...
[21:24] Yukichi; Internal
I'll wait for her near the station on
the nights she goes drinking from now on.

You must be careful when
taking pictures of a cat.
[23:17] Yukichi
Cats are sometimes surprised
by the sound of a shutter,
[23:20] Yukichi
and the flash can cause great injury to their eyes.
