Shiori?

Grand Blue Dreaming Season 2

Dear Brother,

How are you enjoying life as the season changes?

Kitahara Ryokan

The lobelias and yellow lilies have begun to bloom,

dying the mountains here in their summery hues.

Three months have passed since you left home.

I hope you're not causing any trouble for Nanaka-neesama, Chisa-neesama, or Uncle.

I hope you're focusing on your studies.

I am truly worried, as are Father and Mother.

We would love for you to visit home,

but if that isn't possible, please let us know how you are doing, at least.

I eagerly await your response.

Yours truly,

Yours truly,

P.S. I tried making a doll using leftover kimono cloth.

I would be delighted if you kept it with you as a symbol of myself.

Iori-kun.

Did you finish writing your reply to Shiori-chan?

Nanaka-san.

I was thinking of not sending a reply, actually.

Oh? Why is that?

You know what they say. "No news is good news."

I can see that.

Want me to write about your life instead, then?

You'd do that?

Yep.

Chisa-chan and I got letters from her, too.

And I can understand her wanting to know how her beloved family is doing.

Oh, so you'll tell her about my life.

Anything but that, please!

You say that, but it looks like Chisa-chan's halfway through already.

Hold up! Timeout!

What?

I'll give her that update in my letter!

You write about yourself, okay?

I mean, sure, but Shiori-chan said...

"Please let me know if Nii-sama lies in his letter."

Tch.

So let me know when you're done. I'll check it.

Okay, gotcha.

Damn, this is a problem.

Not only does Chisa live with me, she's in the same club and the same major.

She knows everything there is to know about my life.

I can't sneak any lies past her.

I gotta just try and write whatever I can get away with.

Dear Shiori,

It's almost summer over here too.

From Iori.

Where's the rest?

I don't have a single acceptable thing to write about!

I'll have to write about it after all.

No, it's fine! I just couldn't think of an appropriate seasonal greeting, is all.

Yeah?

Why not say you're skipping the pleasantries, then?

Now there's an idea.

Skipping the pleasantries.

Skipping the body.

Skipping the closing.

Gimme one last chance!

Suggesting topics might make it easier.

Fine. "Club Activities," "Academic Pursuits," and "Personal Life."

Okay, I'll write the truth, and nothing but the truth.

Club Activities

Dear Shiori,

I've joined a diving club called Peek-a-Boo.

Its members are truly gentlemanly,

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

No way...

and they showed me how to shed my inhibitions and express myself.

He pulled out his thing!

Aw, yeah!

Academic Pursuits

I've been amazed at how different college studies are from middle and high school.

Exams are very difficult, but everyone puts a lot of effort into prepping for them.

Kitahara! Cheating, huh?

So how will we conceal it?

In my pencil box.

Method 1: Pencil Box

Under my drink label.

Method 2: A Drink Label

Inside my towel.

Method 3: A Towel

I'll put it in my arm!

In the Arm

We're not giving up! We're all going to pass together!

Yeah!

Personal Life

As for my personal life, there's quite literally nothing to write home about.

I stick to a daily routine...

Yikes! I'm a whole hour late again!

Can we get someone to answer roll call?!

I don't wear any dirty clothes...

Wear something for once!

My life is great, if at times a little thrilling.

BREAK UP WITH CHISA KOTEGAWA, OR WE'LL KILL YOU

I'm telling you, it's not what you think! Chisa and I—

Okay, okay.

You can explain when we're in the woods.

That doesn't sound safe!

I'm getting by, so don't worry about me.

Tell Dad and Mom I said "hi", too.

I see.

Is that so, Nii-sama?

I'm impressed she sent a letter and not an email, in this day and age.

Uh, there's a reason for that.

She's terrible with electronics.

Oh, what?

I don't know if she can use a rice cooker, let alone a PC or a smartphone.

Really?

Well, everyone has their strengths and weaknesses.

I'm glad, because it allowed me to get away with this.

You sure wrote a bunch of bull.

Hey, I didn't write any lies, technically.

But maybe you should learn your lesson.

Yeah, I'll take this chance...

to go join these guys now.

Yeah!

All right! Cheers!

Disgusting.

Good heavens.

My liar of a brother needs a pair of watchful eyes.

Very watchful.

Hello.

What brings you two here?

Huh?

Don't we have our meeting today?

Oh, come on.

That's next week.

Urk.

Really? No wonder nobody's here.

We mentioned this in our last meeting.

I completely forgot.

Where are Nanaka-san and the boss?

Out on a work trip.

All right.

Wanna get started?

Started with what?

Making dinner.

Thanks.

What's wrong, Cakey?

Nothing.

Let me taste it.

Here.

Isn't this a bit spicy?

You think?

I'll go help.

I'll make the dessert.

Huh? I don't want any.

Just let me!

What's gotten into her?

Something happen?

Cakey chased me out of the kitchen.

Oh, yeah?

So what do you think?

About what?

Whoa!

Aina?!

What are the chances we get anything edible?

About 60-40, I'd say.

Let's eat.

You settled for fruits, huh?

What were you originally trying to make?

Pudding.

I'll teach you a simple recipe sometime.

By the way...

Hmm?

Do you two get left alone at home often?

Every now and then. Like once a month.

And we can trust you?

Trust us?

With what?

Uh, I mean...

How do we know you won't get up to any funny business?

Wha?

"Funny business"? Come on...

What's wrong with you?

I mean, I remember you complimenting Chisa's ass!

He sure did.

She does have a big, shapely ass and all...

Aina?!

So what's the deal, really?

Well...

She does have a spectacular ass.

But I kinda just see her like a little sister.

O-Oh, really?

I see.

You mean you're totally gonna make a move on her, then.

Hold up.

What do you think little sisters are for?

Don't make me spell it out. That's embarrassing.

Wait, so you're thinking of some unspeakable act?!

What's embarrassing is your dirty mind!

This is why everyone hates 2D otaku brain.

Seriously, what even goes on in his head?

For real.

Nobody in real life lusts over their little sister, right?

Yep. Nobody at all.

Why are you all looking away?

People without little sisters romanticize them,

but they're really not all that, you know.

You have a little sister, Iori?

Hmm? Yeah...

Wait, Kitahara.

Huh?

Before you speak...

choose your words carefully.

I don't.

Look me in the eye.

Her name's Shiori. She's cute.

One...

Hold on. What exactly are you counting?

How old is she?

I think she's in her last year of middle school now.

Two...

Stop that! You're really scaring me!

Are her and Iori close?

I feel like she's still kinda overly attached to him.

Thr-Thr-Scree!

Help! We may be witnessing the birth of a demon!

She sent us all letters recently.

Wow, letters instead of texts? That's lovely.

Yeah.

She just couldn't figure out how to use a phone.

Really?

She's awful with gadgets.

Are you sure she's not just putting on an act for you?

I sent her a reply, and she wrote back again.

She even sent this. Said it's handmade.

Wow, cute.

I was thinking of sending back some photos from here as thanks.

Don't do that.

Why not?

If they find out how I'm living, they'll stop sending me money.

If you know there's a problem, fix it.

If you insist on sending photos, at least let me choose them.

Okay, okay.

You awful brother.

Uh, the only acceptable photos are the underwater ones.

Yeah, because you're always naked.

You show more skin on land than at the ocean.

Early morning pics might be fun—

Chisa! Chisa!

What?

Look.

Urk.

What's up with that photo?

N-Nothing, really!

Don't worry about it.

Their boobs are practically falling out.

Figures. Onee-chan and Azusa-san are both stacked.

I get it.

So it's a spicy pic of Nanaka-san and Azusa-san?

Y-You can't see it, okay?!

The digital version needs to go away forever, too.

I'm not gonna ask you to show me.

You're not?

That's cool.

Bathroom break.

Oh, okay.

I so wanna see!

But they're not gonna show me if I ask.

I gotta act like I'm not interested...

and grab it when I have the chance!

Little sis... Big bro...

Okay, bye.

Bye.

Oh, right.

Be safe while you're alone with him, okay?

I told you, nothing's gonna happen.

Just in case, okay? Bye.

Let's get back to choosing the photos.

Yep.

Good. The nuisances are gone.

Iori?

Hmm?

Nothing.

I must be hearing things. Aina's fault for putting weird ideas in my head.

Nobody can stop me now. Soon...

Soon, that photo will be mine!

Let's see.

Huh?

What's up?

Nothing.

Uh...

Oops.

Were you just about to try something?

Nope. Not at all.

She does have a spectacular ass.

Surely not.

That should do it.

Nothing but diving photos.

Can you blame me? I'm butt naked in all the others.

Okay, Chisa.

What?

Go ahead and take a shower first.

What? You don't wanna clean up?

I will... but what about you?

There's a TV show I wanna catch. I'll go later.

Gotcha.

All right...

The game is afoot!

Zoom!

You perv!

You've got it all wrong!

I just wanted your clothes after you took them off!

That's even more depraved!

Welp. I wasn't expecting her to be wary of me.

What now?

Huh? Oh right, I was out.

I can't exactly use the fancy stuff here without permission.

Is there anything I can use as a shampoo replacement?

Foam-Foam Jet - Bath Cleaner - No More Mold

Might this work?

No damage to the bathtub

It might work!

Note: No, it won't! Don't try this at home, kids!

My eyes!

Iori?!

Urk... Chisa...

Just for tonight, can I use your shampoo?

Y-Yeah, go ahead.

My bad, Chisa. I messed up.

Your brain?

Not what I meant.

I don't know why, but she's not as wary of me anymore.

I can do this.

Wait, she changed!

Time to give up.

Oh, look at the time.

Okay, I'm gonna head up to my room.

Me too.

Hold on...

Fire...

rawr - fire

How'd Chisa get rid of the photo?

No way she burned it.

Best she could do was scrunch and toss it away, which means...

her trash can! There might still be hope!

What do you want?

You were awake?

I sure was.

Hear me out, Chisa!

I was acting out my perverted desires, but you weren't the target of them!

I know.

Huh?

This is what you're after, right?

When did you figure it out?

The bath incident.

I realized there was no way you wouldn't want to see it.

Damn, you saw right through me.

Since you're being so understanding, Chisa,

be a good girl and hand it over!

Try again!

Huh?

Wh-Whoa...

We're back!

Huh?

Chisa-chan? Are you still in bed?

Er... what is the meaning of this?

Ugh...

Huh? Chisa?

Oh, right. I snuck into her room last night.

I'm screwed if anybody sees this...

Welp, I'm dead.

Iori-kun.

Calm down, Nanaka-san.

I didn't do anything to Chisa.

This was just a series of unfortunate incidents.

I swear to god, I didn't do anything dirty to Chisa.

Nope, too scary! I'm out!

You have it all wrong! This was an accident!

It's okay, Iori-kun. I get it.

Oh, okay.

Sheesh, I had no reason to be afraid.

I knew it.

Your hair smells like Chisa-chan's shampoo.

What?!

You don't have to say a word. I completely understand.

N-No... Nanaka...

Huh? Iori and Onee-chan?

Good morning, Chisa-chan.

Nice timing, Chisa!

Tell her what happened last night for me!

What's all this about?

My life is in your hands!

Uh, last night?

I went to bed, and Iori snuck into my room.

Oh? Is that so?

Stop, Chisa!

It's not what you think! I was here for a reason!

And what was that reason? You had something dirty in mind?

Of course not! Back me up, Chisa!

Listen to yourself.

You 100 percent had something dirty in mind.

It's hard to clear my name because she's not exactly wrong!

Iori-kun.

Marry Chisa-chan.

Wha?

Huh?

Wait, what are you two talking about?

Are you not mad at me? I was sure you were gonna rip me apart!

I am mad, obviously. And the thought did cross my mind.

But, as dear as Chisa-chan is to me,

I know that you're a good kid too, Iori-kun.

Nanaka-san!

So I'll spare you the ripping apart if you'll make her happy.

Thank you so much!

Again, what the hell?!

Play along and let me handle this.

Play along with what? This makes no sense.

Nanaka-san's just a little unhinged right now.

Once we get married, she should calm down and hear us out.

What the heck do you take my life for?

So, we're all good with Iori-kun marrying into our family?

Not one bi—

Absolutely.

What are you talking about, Nii-sama?!

Shiori?
