[music playing]

[moaning] That smells good.

I wonder what's for dinner.

Is it ready?

Huh?

Is it?

Patience, buddy, patience.

It's ready.

[steaming]

Ta-da!

We're having sukiyaki tonight.

Ah!

Meat!

Meat!

Yukio is still

working upstairs,

so I say we start

fooding up without him.

Mm.

Mm.

Here you go.

Hope you like it.

Thanks, Rin.

Yay!

It's time to eat.

Mm.

Ow!

[panting]

Heh, I had a

feeling you couldn't

take the heat, kitty cat.

Meow.

While you're

complaining about it,

I'm going to gobble up all

this yummy food myself.

Ah.

Mmph.

Mmph.

Yum, yum.

[sizzle]

Meow.

Hurry up, fuzzball.

Food's going fast.

How could you?

You're mean, Rin.

I hate you!

Hey!

Kuro!

Hm.

There's even more now.

[whining] Yukio!

Go yell at Rin for me.

You know, like

how you always do.

Kuro, don't barge in like that.

But, you don't understand.

Listen!

Mm.

You know, I don't

think I've ever

seen you use the litter box.

I hope you haven't been leaving

messes all over the dorm.

How did we get on this subject?

How rude.

Since you're here, might as

well get a little practice in.

Huh?

OK buddy, come here.

No way.

I have my own special

place to do that.

Listen up, Kuro.

As your owner, I'm responsible

for cleaning up your poop.

So come here.

Who said you were my owner?

Do as I say.

Come here.

I'm not your pet!

I guess I have no choice.

Nyah, you don't get it, do you?

[growling]

You disappoint me.

Oh yeah?

You disappoint me!

Kuro!

I can't take it here anymore.

I'm running away.

[theme music]

Wow!

Time to eat!

Huh?

Hey!

Come back here!

My dinner ran away.

Oh.

I was dreaming.

[footsteps]

I know her.

She's Rin's friend.

We went to the beach together.

Meow.

Aw, what's the matter?

Are you a lost little kitty cat?

Mew.

Maybe you're all tired

out from your morning walk?

Ugh, her voice is so annoying.

Oh, you're such a cute kitty.

[giggles] Coochie-coo.

No.

Stop.

Don't insult me.

I'm 121 years old, dammit!

GIRL: Good morning, Izumo.

[gulp]

How cute!

You're playing with Kuro.

No, I was just

tying my shoelaces.

I'd never play with

Rin Okumura's familiar.

What do you think I am?

A loser?

Huh?

Come on, let's go.

Uh, what the

heck's her problem?

[stomach growling]

I'm so hungry.

BOY 1: Look, it's Kuro.

Meow.

Please give me something to eat.

KONEKO: You're Rin Okumura's

familiar, aren't you?

You're so cute.

[laughing]

[bell jingling]

Come on, come on, kitty.

I want food, not that.

Rawr!

What's that thing

he's using on the cat?

Oh.

You didn't hear about

his latest purchase?

Koneko got himself his

very own cat tickler.

Now he's always

ready to throw down

on any cat he comes across.

Man, what a cat nerd.

KONEKO: [laughing] You're

not supposed to eat it,

silly little kitty cat.

BOY 2: Come on.

We're going to be late.

Huh?

We'll play with this

some other time, Kuro.

Aw, Okumura is so lucky.

I wonder if I can get a Cat

Sidhe to be my familiar.

You love those cats, huh.

BOY 1: Eh, His

name is Konekomaru.

[stomach growling]

[sigh] All that

running made me even hungrier.

I guess it's not lunchtime yet.

[slurping] This doesn't

fill me up at all.

Now what.

SHURA: Man, it's so hot.

Meow.

I'm dying in this thing.

It sucks.

Hey, I've seen that guy before.

Upsy daisy.

He's pretty brave to

do class like that.

Ah!

A, a, a, a guy with boobs?

Here it descends, and

to him it shall return.

What the heck is that?

Ah, that's delish!

Nothing beats cold

beer in the summer.

Could it be I'm so hungry, my

eyes are playing tricks on me?

Rawr!

Huh?

Who's there?

Ah, a Cat Sidh, huh?

Hmm.

Since my cover's blown,

I've got no choice.

Devour the eight princesses.

Slay the serpent.

What?

[gasp]

No one's supposed

to know about me yet,

so I can't have loose ends.

Sorry, but I've got to kill you.

[screaming]

[clicks tongue] [sighs]

I thought I was a goner.

Wait.

Why'd she stop?

[sniffing]

Oh, I guess she

doesn't like dogs.

Thank goodness.

This will do.

What better place to

rest one's weary paws.

Ooh, now that hits the spot.

The problems of the

mortal world disappear.

I feel as though I'm becoming

one with heaven and the earth.

Oh.

[sigh] Huh?

That guy seems

familiar to me too.

[sigh] Maybe he has some food.

Meow.

Excuse me.

If a noisy noise a noise a

knocking, annoying noisy noise

annoys, and I need more.

A skunk sat on a stump, and

thought the stump stunk.

But the stump thunk

the skunk stunk.

She seashells by the seashore.

The shells she sells

are surely seashells.

So if she sells shells

on the seashore--

Huh?

Where is that voice coming from?

Wait, what, who, where?

VENTRILOQUIST: --to toot!

To the toot, to the tutor, is

it harder to toot, or to tutor

two tutors to toot?

Three grey geese in the

green grass freezing.

Grey were the geese,

and green was the grass.

Denise sees the fleece.

Denise sees the fleas.

At least Denise can sneeze

and feed and freeze the fleas.

Swans swam over the seas.

Swim, swan, swim.

Swan swim back again.

Well swum, swan.

What's up with that guy?

Scary!

How many cans can a canner

can if a canner can can cans?

Please give me

something to eat.

Doesn't matter what.

Oh, there's a tuna

sandwich left.

I'll take that.

Or I'll take anything you have.

Ugh.

Pesky cat, get out of here.

Go on, get.

Oh.

I'm so hungry.

SHIEMI: Kuro?

Oh.

Ah, it's Rin's friend.

Hello there.

What's the matter, Kuro?

Ah, this girl smells so good.

[stomach growling] Uh.

[giggles] You sound

like you're hungry.

Come over to my house.

I can make you something to eat.

Oh!

Someone understands me!

Meow!

Finally!

Take it easy.

There you go.

Hope you like my herb

stew and herb cookies.

[bubbling]

[groaning] Herb stew

and herb cookies, huh?

Is this really

meant to be eaten?

I don't mean to

brag, but today they

turned out much

better than usual.

I can't really tell you

what it tastes like,

but I'm sure it's

super good for you.

[meowing]

Well, what are you waiting for?

Dig in.

Rawr, rawr, rawr, rawr, rawr.

Is it too hot for you to eat?

Sorry.

Where's my head? [blowing]

Open up and say ah.

[slurp]

Kuro?

[meowing] Ugh, yech.

It didn't even taste like

it was from this planet.

-Looks like it's going to

be another scorcher today.

MAN: Yeah, but they said

it's going to rain tonight.

I hope it will help

cool everything down.

Man, I hope so, too.

Hm.

Good job, Kuro.

I wonder if he remembers me.

Time to make the rounds.

KURO (REMEMBERING):

Shiro would never die!

Shiro will come back!

Huh?

Kuro?

Hey!

Kuro!

I don't have anywhere

to go anymore.

Oh, Shiro, why did

you have to die?

I miss him.

I wish I could see him again.

Ah.

That's what I'll do.

I'll just go and see Shiro.

I've never gone to see

Shiro by myself before.

When Rin took me the last time,

I think we took the train.

Oh.

A fish!

Mm. [gnawing] Hey, there's

a whole bunch on the ground.

Mm.

These grilled food bomb

thingies are really the bomb.

I love how I can have any kind

of filling I want in them.

[chomp] What filling

should I choose next?

[gasp] He's gonna eat me.

Big brother.

Amaimon, stop dropping

crumbs all over my city!

Oh boy, that was close.

Uh-oh.

Which way is the station?

[motorcycle starting]

Huh?

Ah.

[gasp]

[grunts]

Huh?

Uh?

I'll be there soon, Shiro.

I think it was this way.

[moans] [sniffs]

That smells good.

Look that guy.

Wearing a big coat like

that in the summer.

He must be really hot.

Here you go, sir.

[laughing] Mm.

[blows] [slurp] There's nothing

like eating Ramen on a [slurp]

mm, hot summer day,

while sweating profusely.

[slurp] It's hot,

but [slurp] that's

what makes it so damn delicious.

What a weirdo.

Mm.

Oh, that's good.

I don't want any after all.

Glurg. [slurp]

[hissing and growling]

[gasp] [nervous laughter]

Shiro!

Shiro!

Shiro?

Which way are you?

Marutai, come on.

You're the one who said

you wanted to lose weight.

I know, it's just that I was--

MAN SHOPPING: Did you read the

labels on that stuff you got?

I never should

have fired that boy

with a can-do attitude

and monster strength.

It's been so busy,

I'd hire a cat.

Hm.

KURO: I'll help you for food.

Hm?

Please give me

something to eat!

Hm.

I run a tight ship

and a clean store.

Get out of here, vermin!

You're the one who said

you'd hire a cat, you old bag.

Hm.

[thud]

[meow] Huh?

Ah, it's a kitty cat.

Wow.

You're cute!

Uh-oh.

Daddy, can we take

this kitty home with us?

You mean the little

guy you're holding?

Mm-hm.

Are you sure you can

take good care of it?

Uh-huh.

I'll take care of it

and feed him every day.

You'll feed me?

Wait.

I'm not supposed to

follow strangers home.

But she doesn't look evil.

And she says she'll

feed me, so--

Hm, I wonder what your

mom's going to say.

But everyone has one.

Neo has a cat, and Cloisonne

has a cat, and Conno has a cat.

And they even dress their

cats in cute clothes.

Wait.

You're so cute!

You look like a little princess.

Hm.

I'm no princess, I'm a boy!

Huh!

You're not going to make

me wear frilly clothes!

[dog howling]

[sigh] I came this close

to selling my soul.

[gasp] I don't know where I am.

[meowing]

Where are you, Shiro?

That's not the one.

[rain falling]

I have to keep going.

Where the heck are you?

Shiro.

That's it!

Shiro!

Shiro!

Shiro!

[panting]

I finally made it, Shiro.

Hey.

I was getting old,

waiting around for you.

[gasp]

Thanks for coming out, Kuro.

Shiro!

[laughter]

It was taking you

so long to get here,

I had to get this party started.

[laughs] My bad.

How are you?

You look like you're

taking care of yourself.

I heard a rumor you're

living with Rin now.

Uh-huh.

But get this.

I tried to eat some

sukiyaki yesterday, and--

Hold up, sukiyaki?

It's been a hell of a long

time since I've had that.

I know, me too.

But you know what?

He tricked me.

He knew I can't eat hot food,

and I was all, hot, hot.

And then he ate up all the

sukiyaki and laughed at me!

Can you believe that?

I was so mad, I went and tried

to get Yukio to yell at him,

but Yukio started talking

about the litter box

and tried to make me poop, and

I didn't get anywhere with him.

I don't blame you

for being pissed off.

They say grudges over can

last for seven generations.

And with all those classes

he's taking at the cram school,

he still hasn't figured it out.

Man, that kid's a piece of work.

He acts like a big baby.

It's so annoying.

And when he gets

pissed, he bursts

into flames like a pilot

light under the water heater.

Hm.

Kuro, the thing is, even

though he's kind of a handful,

I'm grateful you're

there with him.

Hm?

Here you are, this grand

old demon, over 100 years

old, and yet you're willing

to humor a rookie like Rin.

That kid's blessed

for having such

a dependable veteran

like you by his side.

I'm dependable?

Really?

Hell, yes.

Keep an eye on him for me, eh?

Mm-hm.

You got it.

Shiro?

You take care of yourself.

KURO: OK.

You too, Shiro.

Hm.

See ya.

Uh.

See ya later, Shiro.

[groan] [meowing] Shiro?

Hm.

[gasp]

Dude, seriously, you took way

too long visiting the old man.

You still want your sukiyaki,

because it's going to spoil.

Huh?

Do you mean there's

still some left?

Damn right there is.

I set some aside for you.

Mr. I can't take a joke.

Hm.

You're such a dumb ass.

Rin.

Eh, I admit it, I was a punk.

Yeah, and dinner pretty much

sucked without you around.

Oh.

You mean-- [meowing]

--you were only kidding?

Rin!

You're the best, Rin!

[thud]

Sukiyaki!
