Mamimi
"Legs apart at shoulder width.
Square the shoulders as though hitting through the enemy...
...here, the pinky is critical.
And then hit, hit, hit - and ca-ching."
Naota
What're you talking about?
Mamimi
Whosoever masters the left, masters da world.
The initial parameter setting...is a bitch.
Naota
Talking about games again?
Mamimi
Hmm?
Tak-kun, whatcha doin'?
Naota
Homework.
Mamimi
How come you're not doin' it at home?
Naota
Cause that ain't cool.
Mamimi
Any way I could getcha to do Mamimi's too?
Naota
Your hands are backwards.
Mamimi
You oughta play baseball too.
How come you always carry a bat around?
Naota
What about you? How come you always coming here?
Mamimi
That's because.... huh? I wonder why...
Naota
Talk about carefree.
You smell like cigarettes.
Mamimi
I don't smoke.
Naota
Hey, how come you always do this-
Mamimi
Earlobe...
Naota
"Ear?"
Mamimi
Mamimi will overflow if she doesn't do this.
Naota
"Overflow"? What happens then?
Mamimi
I bet...something amazing.
Naota
Nothing is amazing, only mundane things occur.
All the adults went nuts when that ridiculously huge factory you can see from our city,
belonging to Medical Mechanica, the medical equipment maker, was finished.
The white smoke it belched out at a set time every day seemed to me like an evil omen.
It spreads out thinly, and covers the town.

Naota
Um...
I hate sour stuff...
Mamimi
Oops, I left a mark. Now what?
Gonna hide it with a band-aid?
Here.
Naota
What?
Mamimi
"What"? This's yours.
There's still half left.
Naota
Hey, um...
My brother, over there...
Haruko
You're..... allllllll miiiiiiiine!
Mamimi
Suddenly!
Tak-kun!
Haruko
"Stop!"
"Stop the native gal."
Tarou-kun just hit his head, so don't move him carelessly.
Mamimi
Oh.
Um, but his name's not Tarou-kun.
Haruko
He's dead! This boy's just died a fully Tarou-kun-style death!
Mamimi
Look, his name's not Tarou-kun. It's Naota-kun.
Haruko
I killed him!
Mamimi
Mamimi takes the "ta" in Naota and calls him Tak-kun, and...
Haruko
I finally found this bozo, and now I killed him!!
Haruko
I offed him...
I iced him, I wasted, no, waxed, fragged, sold the farm to...
No. No no no no, no...
Dammit!
Come back ta life!
SMOOOOCH!
Man, isn't that straining?
Mamimi
Gotta hold your breath and junk.
Haruko
Talk about getting cramped.
Naota
Hey! Isn't it your fault for moving so slow?
sign
Wrong.
Haruko
Yay, I did it. Tarou-kun came back to life.
Mamimi
Look, he ain't Tarou.
Haruko
Really?
Lucky for you you're not Tarou.
You'd be screwed if you were, you'd defininitely be dead.
I am......so in luck!
Mamimi
The coup de grace?
Haruko
Okie dokie...
Hey, it ain't comin' out.
Gotta hit'im again I guess.
Mamimi
Hold it!!
He hit his head, so don't move him carelessly.
Haruko
Damn.
Naota
Owwwww ow ow ow....
What the hell're you doing?!
Haruko
What...
...the mouth-to-mouth?
Naota
No, not that!
Mamimi
Did she slip you the tongue?
Haruko
Good for nothing!
Naota
What the hell're you talking about!?!
Mamimi
Damn she's fast. She's over 20, right?
Wanna go to the hospital?
Naota
Goddamn inwardly-immature adult...
Mamimi
That looks painful.
Naota
Ow, damn it...
This doesn't look like a bump, so I can't go to the hospital...
Owowow....
Maybe I just gotta keep it pushed down.
Shit, what about school tomorrow?
OW! Arrrrgh...
Gaku
Have you heard? It appeared.
Masashi
For real?
Eri
Totally weird. Doesn't suit you at all. I bet you're hiding something under there.
Naota
Jerk.
Gaku
Naota, Naota! Have you heard?
Naota
What about?
Gaku
The Vespa Chick!
Naota
"Vespa"?
text
vespa (ves-puh) 1: (bee) swallow-bee...
Naota
A bee girl?
Masashi
She's got this guitar-
Gaku
And rides this hot-ass bike!
Masashi
I don't think so.
Gaku
I hear she stole this super-hot curry sandwich from this girl in Class 2.
Eri
Super-hot?
Gaku
And if you get stung by her, and if you've done something bad the Sign of the Beast's supposed to appear!
Eri
Bad things?
PA
Sixth grade class Nomiyaji-sensei, sixth grade class Nomiyaji-sensei,
please come to the geology A/V room.
Gaku
Err, well...
Masashi
Something perverted?
Gaku
Huh? Perverted...?
Eri
What kind of bruise is that?
Gaku
It's the Sign of the Beast!
Masashi
Sweet! Lemme see too!
Naota
Of course it's not!
Gaku
Naota, you saw her?
Masashi
Did she sting you?
Gaku
Pervert! Naota, you pervert!
Naota
I don't know what you're talking about!
Masashi
Where'd she get you?
Gaku
Pervert!
Masashi
Where at? Tell me!
Naota
Nothing is amazing. Only mundane things occur.
I said I don't know!
So this isn't any kind of punishment.
Meeting up with Samejima Mamimi was just...normal.
I decided to go to the hospital after school.
It had nothing to do with the bee girl.
Haruko
Hmmm... this does feel exactly right.
Hey. What happened after yesterday? Anything happen?
Hey! I bet somethin' happened. Something weird.
Naota
What're you talking about, something "weird"?!
Haruko
What's that, a zit?
"Totally weird. Doesn't suit you at all."
You're hiding something, arrren't you?
sign
M.M. Affiliated Hospital Brain Surgery, Respiratory Specialists, Internal Medicine, Neurology
nurse
Hmm. "Freak and Muscle-Crippling" version A.
Naota
"Furi-Kuri"...?
nurse
"Adolescent Psychogenic Dermatosclerosis"
a disease where pushing yourself too hard for your tender age causes a horn to sprout".
Naota
You're lying. I've never heard of that.
nurse
I'm lying.
Haruko
But let's discuss what's really going on...under that band-aid!
Naota
Why're you here too?!
Haruko
Just stay right there....
and don't move....
I'll put you out of your misery!
Huh? Where'd he go?
Hey!
Hey, Tarou-kun!
sign
"Shigekuni Bakery"
sign
"The store is temporarily closed..."
Naota
Photos? I don't need to see them or anything.
I don't have time for that.
Like I know! Go play with your friends or something.
Hmm?
I had a dream about my brother.
My brother's swing in the dream was the same as the one I used to admire.
Kamon
Nao, dinner's ready.
Shigekuni
My, to think that a we've got a housekeeper. I feel ten years younger.
Naota
Hey! It's that Vespa Chick from this morning!!
sign
She a geisha or something?
Kamon
What're you shouting for?
Shigekuni
Hurry up and be seated.
Haruko
Word.
sign
She's sitting there like she belongs??
Kamon
Oh, she's going to be working here from now on. Her name's Haruhara-
Haruko
Haruko. Pleased t'meetcha.
Kamon
Your father got nailed...
Naota
By her bike?!
sign
Probably something like this....
"Oops, soooory!"
kanji
Death
Shigekuni
You should have perished right then and there.
Kamon
Hey dad, I got this live in maid for your sake...
Naota
Gramps, are you sure you're okay and- MAID!?!
WHAT?! A MAID?!?
Haruko
...Who saw a certain Tarou-kun having a fond, tittilating conversation with this kogal.
Kamon
He was fondling her tits?!
Naota
I told you my name's not Tarou!!
Kamon
You were teasing her teats?!?
Who the hell is this slutty student, eh? EH!?!
Naota
L-look, I just ran into Samejima Mamimi...
Kamon
Mamimi-kun?
Shigekuni
That won't do, it's Sagemon #1.
Kamon
Trying to get your claws on her while you're brother's gone...
And then fondling her tits! And flicking her tits!
and then FRICKING her tits...!
What does "frick" mean?
Naota
Hell if I know!
In the first place, what're you suspecting a grade-schooler for?!
Kamon
Ah-ha!
AH HA!!!
It's that, isn't it?
Shigekuni
That's exactly the way I make bread, fondling it like...
Kamon
It's your Gundam Hammer, isn't it?
Naota
Say what??
Kamon
Well like it's Gundam, but it's just a robot anime, as in like, that Tomino-style thingie, right?
Naota
I have no clue what you're talking about.
Kamon
Nao's a lot like me.
I bet he's doing it.
I know he's doing it.
I just know he's fondling them.
Haruko
Whoa, really? Nice going, "little brother."
Kamon
Oh, by the way, what about you, Haruko-san?
Haruko
"Ewe"?
Kamon
The whole, um, fondling thing...
Haruko
"Fawn"?
Kamon
No, not as in fawns and deer and stuff...
Haruko
"Dear?"
Kamon
You know, this style of fondling...
Haruko
"Stile"?
Kamon
Look, the blankety-blank-
Haruko
"Blank"?
Kamon
"Ooooooh! Mr. Former Editor-in-Chief, I didn't know you had such a youthful wife!!"
YES!! FONDLE-FONDLE!!!!
That's the style of dream I'm talking about.
Shigekuni
Yes. The hand-work is exactly like fondling something...
Haruko
Oooh.
Hey, Tak-kun'n I have THAT kind of relationship too.
two
THAT....meaning???
Haruko
"Mouth to Mouth"!
Kamon
M-m-m-m-...
Shigekuni
Fondle fondle!
sign
Is that true?
Naota
Just shut up about that!!
Kamon
True...I guess it's natural for two people under one roof to start fricking.
Naota
Who cares about fricking or fracking or junk like that!
Kamon
I bet he's planning on doing it tonight...
Naota
Quit talking like a kid!
Kamon
So his lewd urges to fondle are...are...
...hidden under this band-aid, aren't they?!?
Naota
I'm not hiding anything like that!!
Haruko
Band-aid...
Shigekuni
Fondle fondle fondle...
Kamon
Man, Haruko-san, that's amazing...
Naota
Easygoing bastards...
Haruko
Umm...they claim they're making medical equipment, but...
Well no, not yet. Yeah, that's true, but...
I haven't got the channel number yet...
And the kid I drafted here can't manufacture it or something...
Naota
Don't come in without asking.
Haruko
Looks like you're below, so I'll be on top.
Naota
What are you really?
Haruko
A wandering housemaid.
Naota
Tell me the truth.
Haruko
An alien.
Naota
You were a fake nurse this morning.
Haruko
Beneath the band-aid...
Naota
There's something weird about you.
Haruko
What's going on under that band-aid?
Naota
I don't know.
Haruko
You're lying. You saw it, didn't you?
Naota
What's happening to me?
Haruko
So, what's underneath there?
Naota
It's your fault, isn't it?
Haruko
It's your head!
Naota
It's cause you hit me!
Haruko
Just take it off!!
Naota
You followed my dad here, so go be with him!!
What?
Haruko
You're the one I met first.
Naota
Anyways, up top is my brother's, so no-one can sleep there.
That's the rule.
Haruko
How old's your brother? Where's he at?
Naota
America.
Haruko
What for?
Naota
Baseball.
Haruko
He must be good at it.
Naota
Hey, are you trying to sleep here?!?
Haruko
There's nowhere else. Up top is your brother's, right?
Naota
Goddamn wisecracking little...
Kamon
Naota-kun.
Let's get serious for a moment.
Naota
What about?
Kamon
About the Haruko-san related conversation. You got any objections?
Naota
Do whatever you want.
Kamon
The "nao" in "Naota" means "honest."
You got nailed too, didn't you?
Naota
When'd she come?
Kamon
She said something about "give me some loaves of bread".
Such a sad story. Hurts my ears hearing it.
Is that what Mamimi-kun is? Is she poor or something?
Haruko
He's doing great.
Mamimi
He gave me a whole lot.
Naota
Did you get a letter? Hasn't he contacted you?
How much do you love my brother?
Mamimi
So hard.
Naota
You saw the sign in front of the store, right? That's stale.
Mamimi
Watermelon.
Naota
Huh?
Mamimi
Or a panda's mischievous face.
Or health sandals with acupuncture marks on them.
Or the smell of chalkboard erasers.
Or Sundays when it's raining when you wake up.
Well, I love him more than loaves of bread.
Naota
Then, let's stop this.
Over there, my brother...
Haruko
I can't!
text (upside down)
"I hooked up with this blond babe!"
Haruko
I gotta respect their privacy....huh?
Oh my.
Naota
What's wrong?
Mamimi
I'm like gonna overflow...
I'm overflowing!
Naota
What's overflowing?
Mamimi! Mamimi!!
It's bigger than before...
Mamimi?
What the hell is going on!?!
Haruko!
Amazing!...
...I said in spite of myself, and thought "Oh damn."
I can't believe I thought she looked like my brother, even for a moment...
Won't umm won't like come offf errr won't come um off help please umm...
Haruko
Huh? What the?
Now what?
sign
"As of today, the store is back in business. The Management."
Naota
Anyways, the band-aid's gone.
My horn went away.
Nothing is amazing.
Haruko
Something's fishy here.
Naota
Only mundane things occur.
Haruko
What're you blushing for?
Naota
I'm leaving.
Mamimi
You didn't haveta run. Here.
Naota
I said I hate sour stuff, but...
