Please keep what I'm about to sing

Just between us, okay?

The truth is, I want to keep my desires hidden deep in my heart

A secret, a secret

I want to take shortcuts

Never getting soaked by the rain

Never getting knocked over by the wind

Even if that's being devious, smile

Even if I'm a coward, play with me

I don't want to feel sad

Never getting soaked by tears

Never feeling at my wit's end

Just smile and think I'm insensitive

Only tell me about fun things

See, there are faces I want to see and voices I want to hear

When I wake up I trumpet my joy:

Good morning! Let's have another fine day!

"Princess Jellyfish" Good morning! Let's have another fine day!

"Princess Jellyfish"

There's a secret in the closet.

Wow, Mama, this house is so big!

That's right, Kuranosuke.

If you study hard, Papa will buy you whatever you want.

Really? He'll buy me clothes?

Of course he will. He's rich.

"Jubaku - Spellbound and Stone Broke"

Wh-What's with those old glasses?

They're lame... Even worse, they're huge!

I lost mine.

I'm going to the shop right now.

I can't ask.

There's just no way!

"Hey Bro, are you still a virgin at 30

because you got traumatized seeing your dad and my mom getting it on

in some walk-in-closet-type deal in some backstage-type room

at some theater-type place?"

Even I can't ask that!

What? You're telling me the Amamizu-kan deal isn't fixed yet?

What's taking Acquisitions so long?!

That place is huge; we need to tear it down first.

Well, they did get a verbal agreement...

But the owner's been abroad,

so it's been difficult to schedule a contract signing...

For what it's worth, they think it could come together next month.

Next month? That's so late!

Fine, I'm going. I've got business in the neighborhood today anyway.

I'm returning something Koibuchi Junior left behind.

Hello, it's a pleasure to see you again.

I'm from Global City Create.

That "vwoosh"...They disappeared?

Hiya! Clara here!

The Banba Scope can analyze the contents of any bag

based on its logo and size.

When a bag potentially contains tasty things, in other words meat,

high-end sweets, sea urchin, squid, or other high-purine seafood,

she intuitively knows that as well.

Chieko, the vixen's got a box of snacks.

Goodness... But I'm sure it's only rice crackers or something.

No... Judging from the design and size, I'm thinking baked goods.

It could be... macarons.

M-Macarons?

Hello, I'm the building manager. How may I help you today?

Ah, you must be the owner's daughter.

I'm sorry to burst in on you like this.

I thought I'd come pay my compliments in person while I was in the area.

The vixen attacks!

Mayaya! Why are you coming in through the window?!

This is the second floor!

Th-The vixen!

Huh? "Vixen"?

She's here, yeah, she's here!

She's come from the depths of Hell, yeah!

The vixen's come to buy us out!

She's come from the depths of Hell!

Yay! We got macarons!

Macarons, you say?!

What was she doing here?

These are from the shop Yakkun was raving about on Hanamaru Market!

What the heck? There are glasses in here.

Whose are they?

So sorry! I accidentally left something in that bag!

Oh, my! What a fascinating room this is.

Stay out!

Ah, here they are. I'm sorry for being so careless!

By the way, Minister Koibuchi's manor is nearby, isn't it?

Yeah, it's about 15 or 16 minutes on foot.

What, are you a spy?

No, I'm just going to return a lost item... Well, if you'll excuse me!

Please do drop me a line when your mother comes home,

and I'll come explain the contract to her right away.

So, I'll be off, then.

Who are you?

Er, do you live here, Miss?

Yeah, I do.

"Lie" Yeah, I do.

"Lie" Nope, he's lying.

Nope, he's lying.

Please excuse me. Here, my card.

I should've known! Where's all your battle gear?!

Well, they didn't warn us before they came.

Dammit... Hey, landsharks!

"No Boys Allowed" Dammit... Hey, landsharks!

"No Boys Allowed" Let me make one thing clear:

"No Boys Allowed" none of the residents here have the least intention of leaving!

None of the residents here have the least intention of leaving!

So get out, and tell your boss, "We can't make Amamizu-kan sell.

It's not possible. It's Mission Impossible."

That's for the building owner to decide.

Owner... I see, the owner.

Okay. Then we'll just have to become the owners of this place!

Pardon? I don't follow you...

We'll buy this place!

Buy it? Young lady, do you realize what property values are like here?

No. But we'll buy it no matter how much it costs.

A hundred million, a billion, whatever. We'll buy it!

Mayaya, throw some salt!

Roger!

Woo, salt! Woo! Hakata Salt!

Ha! Go home, go home, go home!

Please come with an elderly boss next time!

Hey, wait!

Good! Defend that door!

Okay, problem solved!

Um... how so?

Aw, no worries! I mean, my family's rich, and I've got some dirt on my dad.

Please stop saying things just because you've gotten carried away.

Anyway, Chieko, talk to your mom about it when she gets back, okay?

"Hey, Mama, sell me this building!"

What?! Say that to my mother?! Don't joke about such things!

Um... Can I borrow you for a minute?

It's not every day you invite me to a park, Tsukimi!

What brought this on?

Um, Kuranosuke...

That... That woman from before... She's your o-o...

Ogre?

No, your... older brother's g-g-girlfriend, isn't she?

Huh? You mean my brother?

Yes. Um... she had glasses...

Your brother's glasses.

Glasses?

Ah, come to think of it, he came home without them yesterday,

and this morning he was wearing these old huge, lame-o frames...

So does this mean they're "doing it"?

Ts-Tsukimi?

I saw them.

I saw them together.

Tsukimi...

What are you crying for?

Why...

You smell nice... Is it perfume?

Listen... I am technically a guy, you know.

Oh, right... I guess you are...

Lesbians!

Can it, ya little punks!

I'll go wash my face.

Sheesh...

It's commercial time!

Clara!

It's the second half!

Tequila!

So... all of you have three-figure balances?!

No, indeed! This month, I have two figures!

Why are you so broke?!

Well, it's not like I ever expected you guys

to have any savings in the first place...

Money, money, money! What's your game, you Zeni Geba?!

Like I keep telling you, we need to buy this place!

What are you laughing for?

Oh, please. You're stringing out that gag too long.

You'll never be a Katsura comedy master that way.

It's not a gag! I'm serious!

If we put our minds to it, we can make as much money as we need!

Just look at how many people we have.

- Mom, this person really is bonkers.

- Don't laugh! - Mom, this person really is bonkers.

- Listen up, you! - Mom, this person really is bonkers.

- Even Yuan Shao with all his family connections couldn't buy it! - I don't know how he comes up with these things.

- Even Yuan Shao with all his family connections couldn't buy it! - He's like an alien.

- Mayaya's right. Don't be ridiculous. - He's like an alien.

- Mayaya's right. Don't be ridiculous. - Maybe because he's a rich boy?

- Okay, enough. - Maybe because he's a rich boy?

But somewhere along the line, we've gotten swept along by his tide.

I've started feeling excited, somehow.

Wow, that girl was a real knockout, wasn't she?

As if! She was just fooling you with makeup!

If you washed her face off she'd be nothing, you idiot!

Those lashes were fake! Those were Takako Style eyelashes!

You know, the Cinema Classic ones!

There's like ten types, and they're the thickest and longest!

The ones that give you Hollywood eyes!

B-But she had a great body, too...

As if! She's like a beanpole, you friggin' moron!

More like, nobody that skinny has boobs like those!

Fat deposits just do not work that way!

They do not, not, not, not!

Those are so implants! So fake! So silicone!

She so gets hyaluronan injections!

You're disturbing the neighborhood!

"Them boobs is fake, bitches!"

"Them boobs is fake, bitches!" Stop it! We'll get arrested!

Stop it! We'll get arrested!

Don't you worry! I'll wreck all the rundown buildings in this neighborhood,

and there'll be a gigantic hotel here!

Miss Inari, keep your voice down...

Creepy! What is this room?

Is it a Buddhist doll-disposal temple?

How dare you!

I opened my private room just for you, because you asked to see it!

Ugh, look at this!

It's obviously one of those cursed dolls that makes your hair grow!

Okay, let's sell this one. It's scary.

Sakurako!

What did you just say?!

T-Torpedo...

Before the torpedo!

I said let's sell these and put the cash in our Amamizu-kan Purchase Fund.

Sell them? Don't talk about it like we'd just be selling some dolls!

But... they are dolls!

No, these girls are my living, breathing daughters!

Sakurako, Midoriko, all of them!

Say, how much did Sakurako cost?

200,000 yen.

O-Chiyo! Matsuko! O-Take! Bondo! Umeko! Kawako! Reiko!

Do not ransack this place.

Maybe you don't get it, but to Chieko, they might as well be family.

Like that "Extended Family Special" thing on TV?

Shut up!

Just get out of this room, right now.

Okay... Here's your...

N-Naked man!

Would you just get used to it already?

P-Please put some clothes on!

Aw, but my shoulders are all stiff!

What's your problem? You were all over me in the park not too long ago!

"All over you"?! I was not!

You've got a tea leaf on you.

A decree!

You! You there! Is there a fax machine at your house?!

If so, come to our aid this instant!

"Fax machine broken. Can't send my sketches. This is very bad." If so, come to our aid this instant!

"Fax machine broken. Can't send my sketches. This is very bad."

Welcome home.

I'm sorry for making you drive me on such a little errand.

I don't mind that, but are you sure you really needed new glasses?

Look.

I had business in the neighborhood.

I'm glad I was able to return them.

But perhaps I was a bit too late? It looks like you've bought new ones.

- Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho!

- You look so distrusting. - Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho!

"Big Fat Lie" - You look so distrusting. - Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho!

"Big Fat Lie" - It's all right. I can keep a secret. - It's a big fat lie!

- It's all right. I can keep a secret. - It's a big fat lie!

I won't tell anyone.

May I ask you one question?

Go ahead.

That night... Did we have... s-s-s-sexual relations?

I apologize, but I was highly inebriated, and my memory is hazy...

But I don't recall any such thing.

What's more, I don't believe I'm the kind of person who could, so...

In other words...

Here. Proof we made love.

I... I...

I almost, like, kissed a girl who's practically a Shigeru Mizuki character

on some weird impulse!

Actually, Tsukimi! How can you just sit there calmly drinking tea?!

Isn't this messed up?!

Huh? Wh-What is?

So now you're saying

you don't even know what I did because you had your eyes closed?!

Dammit! You moron!

No! You can't hold the manuscript like that, or you'll crease it!

That's worth 20,000 yen per page, you know! You have to be careful with it.

Huh? This stuff makes that much?

Which means... 20,000 times...

We humbly request your decree!

Don't you think this system is messed up?

She could just text message or something if she doesn't want to come out.

Shh! If she finds out you're male, your life is over!

"Who will suffer the most if the building goes? Yes, it's me."

"But I'm not selling any collections right now, so I'm low on cash. Heh, heh, heh."

"But if the serial comic I'm doing now is a hit, I'll make the down payment myself."

Okay! We have a down payment! Now we just need...

What are you talking about?

I'm saying I'm going to buy an apartment home, so lend me money.

How much?

Dunno... I guess about 300 million?

Well, I've got an early morning tomorrow. I think I'll turn in.

Hanamori told me, you know.

He told me why Shu can't handle women.

And you intend to blackmail me?

Yeah.

Whenever you went to see Mom's shows you did the wild thing backstage, right?

I can see why he'd be traumatized.

Kuranosuke, I'll just say one thing. That day...

...I only got to second base.

I think second base is enough to damage a child,

but as blackmail material, it's a little weak.

Yeah...

Please don't touch that.

You're looking especially fashionable this morning.

I've got an exam. I figure cross-dressing is a bad idea.

I see.

Hey, this Benz you're always madly polishing...

How much is it worth?

An S-Class Mercedes-Benz costs fifteen million yen.

Fifteen million yen? How many Benzes do we have, again?

Three.

Right...

Look, it's Kuranosuke!

You never hang out with us anymore!

Sorry, sorry. I'm really busy lately.

What about today? Aren't you free? Let's go out someplace!

- Yeah! - Hmm, today is...

"Flea Market"

"No Boys Allowed"

"No Boys Allowed" Flea market?

Flea market?

I've already reserved us a stall. It's in Harajuku.

So, I'm going to have a look through your storage.

Stop! Mother will be angry!

And you can sell off those expensive clothes and purses you're always wearing first!

Over my dead body.

I really want you to realize that you're gorgeous

Why haven't you realized it before this?

It's like you've lost your heart

I want you to realize it right away, right away, I want you to understand

I want you to realize it right away, I want you to realize your beauty

Because you're so very beautiful

I want to convey that to you

Your loveliness, forever and ever

I'll be so happy if you'll just realize your loveliness

I care about you, you know

Please, realize your beauty
