I will always have faith

As I hold onto my never-ending dreams

Trust me, my way

Don't mind

At times, these feelings

May lead me in circles

What's wrong with being a little positive?

Just be yourself

But you know, a jumbled-up scenario

Will gradually lead to a tomorrow we can love

(Trust my way)

The wind

Brushes against my cheek

We can continue at this breezy pace

Both comfortable and fun

For all time

Feelings that will never change

As I hold onto my never-ending dreams

Trust me, my way

Sorry, Mitsuki, Anna.

The clerk gave me a special deal.

A pretty good job for me.

Nothing wrong with enjoying a perk or two every now and then.

Wh-What?!

A-Anna?

I was so surprised!

What was that sound?

U-Um, Anna...?

Izumi, you smell so delicious.

A-Anyway, we need to investigate that sound!

Episode 7 He is Izumi's vv¥!?

Wh-What?

Don't tell me the shaking was 'cause of

him?

Pochi, haven't you put on too much weight?

It's probably because you've been living too comfortably here.

Though some might say you look cute, that's only because you're an alligator.

Imagine if you were a human.

It isn't healthy to weigh so much.

Are you going to hibernate?

I'm pretty sure Pochi put on weight because...

Then we'll put him on a diet!

The first Pochi Diet Operation!

First Pochi Diet Operation!

This one doesn't involve me.

I can just kick back and watch.

So what are we doing?

And start!

Wh-What are you doing?!

You've been wearing more clothes since fall came around,

which means you've been showing less skin and Pochi hasn't been chasing you around as much.

Which means he put on weight because of a lack of exercise.

That's our Mitsuki. She's got it all figured out.

Which means...

Huh?

If Sis wears less clothes...

Strip her!

No!

Hang in there, Izumi! Keep it up!

No! Stop, Pochi!

H-Help!

You can't, Pochi!

Let go of Izumi at once!

Or else!

I'll destroy your collection of Internet images along with your computer.

Sheesh. That didn't serve to be much exercise.

Useless.

I'll die before that happens!

In that case, we'll review what he's eating.

A diet is supposed to refer to the restriction of food intake.

Take yours off, too! A diet is supposed to refer to the restriction of food intake.

But, Master, Pochi's a gourmet.

It's fine. I know his weakness.

He's weak for women.

So if a cute girl uses a little sex appeal,

he'll be willing to eat pig feed or lzumi's cooking!

Like I'm going to do that!

I'll give up on only wearing aprons, so make something, Anna.

Yes, I'll do my very best.

I'm done. I made stew.

I used ground meat, pickled daikon, salted fish entrails,

jam, dried sardines, daifuku, and lots of other stuff!

Pochi.

Heh. Better than expected.

That should instantly take Pochi out.

He'll lose weight if we give him an upset stomach!

Have plenty to eat.

Well? Doesn't it look good?

Don't tell me that you're going to refuse food made by a girl?

Aren't you a feminist?

Eek! Cockroach!

B-Bug spray! Bug spray!

Oh, it's just a toy. Why was it here?

Oh? What's wrong with Yoshitaka?

ARSOLUTE QUIET! MEALS MUST RE FED BY MOUTH COMPANION REQUIRED FOR RATHS (MUST RE A MAID)

Rejected!

Damn it...

Stupid Pochi...

Damn it!

You won't get away, damn Pochi!

Who is Pochi?!

Is he really an alligator?!

Calm down, Master.

Isn't there something wrong with him?!

He stands on two legs... He acts oddly human...

He can't be a normal alligator!

Isn't there a person inside?!

A zipper on his back or something?!

Obviously not!

We've been looking after Pochi since he was born.

Pochi's norm-

In any case, he's definitely an alligator!

Didn't you just stop yourself from calling him normal?

Damn that stupid Pochi...

I'm gonna make him pay one day...

Chise! Kasumi! Lum! Misuzu! Corona! lyo! Everybody else! Time to eat!

Pochi!

I can't let you do this anymore!

I've been nice to you because of your unfortunate background,

but I'm chasing you out today!

Shut up, scumbag.

You should be the one to leave and dig through the trash for food.

Rotten pedo freak.

Sexual harassing, geeky, shut-in perv!

What was that?!

Mitsuki!

Stop adding fuel to the fire!

Don't worry, Sis.

No matter what he says, Master can't chase Pochi out.

How can you be so sure?

That's because Master's current lifestyle is built on Pochi's presence here.

Sis and I are here because we need a place to keep Pochi.

Anna is here because Sis is here.

Th-That's impossible...

I have to depend on Pochi?

Master.

Do you dislike your current way of living?

Well, I guess I'm satisfied.

Everybody has to give and take.

In that case, you should be able to get along with Pochi.

That's right, Yoshitaka.

Shake hands to make up.

Hold on.

Haven't you all forgotten something important?

Especially you, 1zumi!

Huh?

You owe me a crap-load of debt.

As long as that's there, you'll have no choice but to work for me.

That's right!

There's nothing to worry about now since Sis won't be paying off that debt anytime soon.

Worry!

So in the end, everybody's here for their own interests,

and definitely not because they feel attached to Yoshitaka.

U-Uh...

That sounds right.

Don't you feel sad when you say that?

That's not the case for me.

I give my body and soul to Izumi!

You can stop that already!

Geez, Izumi! Wait, Anna! Calm down!

Wait, Anna! Calm down!

If it weren't for Pochi and the debt,

I'd leave this place in an instant.

That's right...

I've gotten used to this place...

It's kind of scary what you can get used to.

Still, stupid Pochi...

I expected him to look for pictures of female alligators

on the Tropical & Alligator Garden website...

So he was the reason I got a huge international phone charge last month...

What is it, Yoshitaka?

You left the door open.

A-Anna!

These are the pictures Pochi's collected from the Internet!

See.

The one you found the other day.

Really?

But that Pochi has surprisingly good taste for an alligator.

So I'll be taking all of these to make up for the phone bill!

Isn't this Izumi?

Based on the position of the mole on her upper arm, it must be.

Wait! Isn't this inside my house?!

I'm sorry, Yoshitaka...

It was me.

Now that you've found out...

Yoshitaka...

Y-Y-You must die!

What's wrong, Anna?!

And decide if you're going to apologize or threaten me!

Then this is a threat!

Pray for Izumi and my happiness in the next world!

That's no longer a threat!

I'm home.

I'm home?

Wait! What are you guys doing?!

Notice sooner, idiot! Help me!

This is for the sake of our happiness!

Don't worry! It'll only hurt in the beginning!

Welcome! You are the 14277th visitor This is Anna Kurauchi's Page Anna's Diary

I was so desperate to be with you...

I thought that if I used my homepage

to make it look as though we were in a relationship,

it might become a reality.

Izumi Gallery

So what are these pictures of?

What is this?

The space between Izumi's fingers.

Huh?!

What about this?

Izumi's hairline...

Where?!

Wh-When did you?!

My favorite would be Izumi's earlobe...

No... But these weren't the ones on Pochi's computer.

What does that mean?!

There's somebody besides Anna doing these things?!

Izumi...

Take a close look over there.

There!

And there!

Even there!

Careless of you to not notice until now.

It's obviously me!

So that's what it was!

What were you thinking when you spread these around?!

I'll be too embarrassed to walk outside!

W-Wait!

But I wasn't the one who put them on the Internet!

Who else could be capable of such a terrible thing?!

D-Don't forget, Izumi!

You owe me money and you're my maid!

You have no right to complain

about anything I do as long as you're in this house!

Well? Do you understand?

What is it?

Hey.

Izumi?

Why do you always act this way?

I'm sick of this!

I'm getting out of this place!

A few minutes eatlier

Hi there.

Do you need something?

Ah, well, uh...

Pochi!

Pochi!

What were you doing?

F-Forgive me! Please spare my life!

Pochi's in a bad mood now.

This is...

Ah, yes, about that, uh...

Izumi!

Izumi!

You're going to run out on your debt?!

Po-Pochi?

Sis!

Izumi!

Izumi!

Sis, you should go inside.

No way!

That's what you get for trying to run out on your debt!

That has nothing to do with this!

Excuse me for interrupting, but allow me to introduce myself.

Here is my card.

Office Just One - Exclusive Scouts?

Ah, did you see the Internet Idol Gateway?

Yes, yes. That's right.

And if possible we'd like Izumi to become an exclusive member of our production.

Wow! You did it, Sis!

What's this gateway thing?

I won't agree to something that sounds so suspicious!

I'm only in middle school!

That's what everyone says in the beginning.

Well, don't knock it until you try it.

We prepared a considerable signing bonus.

Um, do you mean I'll be getting paid?

Of course.

This is my chance!

My chance to get out of this house!

God must have been watching over me!

I'll do it! Please let me try!

I'll do my best!

Well, that makes this easy.

The president will be pleased.

Hold it right there!

Who cares about the president of a little entertainment company?

Don't open discussions with my maid without my permission!

I've endured a great deal to bring her so far.

She's my maid and she owes me a lot of money!

Because I'm your maid?

That's right.

You wouldn't give a damn about me if I wasn't your maid.

I like how you put that.

So despite everything you've said, you've been waiting for me to confess my love.

Moron!

I'd rather die a hundred times than let that happen!

Okay! I have a good idea!

Huh?

We're going to have Pochi and Master race each other.

They'll be running in opposite directions,

and if Master can reach the end of the treadmill, he wins.

What's with the set?

I had the members of the fan club make this, just in case.

Anything for our Mitsuki!

Why do I have to compete against Pochi?!

Because Pochi seems to be in favor of Sis becoming an idol.

Huh?

Pochi...

You're doing this for me?

You think I'm going to be a part of this farce?

I've prepared a prize for you as well.

Sis's collection of underwear!

I'll place these at your goal.

Why are you using mine?!

Use your own if you're going to...

No! I mean! Don't use something like that as a prize!

You'll be participating, of course?

Absolutely, if that's the case.

And if I win,

you'll be my maid for the rest of your life!

Well then...

Wait!

Let me be part of the contest!

Thank you, Pochi, for doing this for me.

But I have to fight this one myself.

I have to win this on my own.

Stop! Pochi!

That's good, Izumi!

Forgive me, Izumi! I can't help myself!

Sis, stop being stubborn and put some clothes on?

Indeed. Your body should be treated with extra care when you have yet to debut.

And so, let's get started!

Well now, is this really going to work?

I'm sure that Master will understand.

In fact, I'll make him understand.

And I have a number of good ideas concerning how to sell Sis.

You've already got this thought out.

First...

I refuse to lose!

And I'll be taking the underwear!

I'm getting the hell out of this place!

Damn it. She's tough!

I need to get out of here as soon as possible!

Remember my initial resolve!

I can see the goal line!

Damn it! Everything's turning white!

I refuse to lose!

Th-This is...

I see!

If Izumi becomes an idol, I can legally do all kinds of things...!

I'll just forfeit.

Okay!

Which means Sis wins!

Congratulations!

What? What's going on?

Did I win?

Okay! Now's my chance to grab her underwear!

It smells like Izumi...

I'm going to put them on right away!

A-Anna, you can give me the ones you just took off!

Cut it out!

Honestly...

I can't let my guard down for a second around you two...

I have now received the consent of Master Yoshitaka.

Please sign this contract.

You'll probably remain obscure while piling up more debt.

Shut up!

So what does an idol actually do?

Basically, this kind of stuff.

You don't have to show those to me!

There's no need to worry. Our company doesn't do nude pictures.

Of course!

How old do you think I am?!

That'd be a crime!

That won't be much different from what I'm enduring now.

It will! It will!

You'll have a huge audience.

That's even more embarrassing!

And if you make enough money,

we might be able to take care of Pochi by ourselves.

I-1 see.

That's right.

Everything will be solved if we have money.

H-Hey!

Don't tell me you're also leaving, Mitsuki!

You don't need to worry.

Either way, it'll only happen if Sis pays off her debt.

Even if she works her debt down to a hundred yen,

you should be able to turn it into a million yen!

Oh, yeah. You're right.

I can just do that.

Couldn't you at least discuss this where I can't hear you?!

Um, sorry.

Could I have a little longer to think about it?

Is that so?

Then I hope to hear a favorable response the next time I come calling.

In any case, we never figured out how those pictures of Izumi got out.

That's right! I forgot!

You scumbag!

I said it wasn't me!

You're still saying that!

It was me.

Huh?!

I found these pictures of Sis in Master's database...

Ah, but I deleted all the ones of Anna.

See!

It wasn't me, Izumi!

Wait! What?!

I'm sorry.

I thought it might help to pay back your debt.

Mitsuki...

So I used the earnings to make merchandise based on Sis to sell online.

Mitsuki...

My name has been cleared now!

Let me go already!

Shut up!

This all happened because of your despicable hobby!

No more...

My muscles are all sore from what happened today...

Today was an even busier day than usual.

Sis is doing her best, so I have to work hard, too.

Wait and see, Izumi!

I'll make it so you regret today's decision so much you want to die!

I got some new pictures today.

I'll upload them to the gallery right away.

The back of Izumi's knee...

Go to bed, Mitsuki.

Okay!

Izumi's debt for the day Mitsuki's total earnings

Izumi's debt for the day Mitsuki's total earnings Remaining debt for Izumi to pay off

The sweeter they look

The less chance they're fragile or weak

Girls can be pretty tough

It's also important to be able

To enjoy stubbornly running around in circles!

There's plenty of spice in that smile

What do you think?

An exhilarating secret

Which destroys common sense

Is hidden well underneath their skirts

These feelings were made from lots of love

Because I want to dream of the moment I swoon

Young ladies mature with lots of love

Because they're holding onto thrills and shine

Next Episode

If we start making lots of money, we'll be able to live with Karin!

That's right. Karin...

Wait! That's great and all, but why do I have to suffer every time you come up with an idea?

Hey, hey. Who's Karin?

Don't tell me you...

Ah, Yoshitaka!

You're already sniffing around.

Mitsuki and I are more than enough for you!

Don't expect me to be your average maid when I'm fighting for my little sisters!

Episode 8 An Incredibly Low Strike Zone

I can't wait.

Wait!
