1. Seriously, though...
Copy !req
2. It's so hot.
Copy !req
3. Gojo-kun, don't you wanna
cool off somewhere?
Copy !req
4. Sure...
Copy !req
5. Welcome.
Copy !req
6. I've never been to a manga café before.
Copy !req
7. Oh, really? I absolutely recommend them.
Copy !req
8. They're nice and cool, you can
read all the manga you want,
Copy !req
9. you can eat, and they have drinks!
Copy !req
10. It's basically paradise.
Copy !req
11. Right...
Copy !req
12. But...
Copy !req
13. We're so close.
Copy !req
14. You can really stretch out
your legs. It's the best!
Copy !req
15. Episode 11
Copy !req
16. I Am Currently at a Love Hotel
Copy !req
17. Man, these seats are so comfy.
Copy !req
18. Ooh, a menu!
Copy !req
19. French fries, French fries!
Copy !req
20. We're really way too close...
Copy !req
21. Why is this room so small?
Copy !req
22. Um, is this normal for manga cafés?
Copy !req
23. Yeah. Something wrong?
Copy !req
24. O-Oh, I see.
Copy !req
25. Gojo-kun, wanna get something to eat?
Copy !req
26. Oh, no! She's looking at a bonkers page!
Copy !req
27. I ended up bringing this with me,
Copy !req
28. but I totally rec it! Give it a read!
Copy !req
29. "I'm a Mega-Best-Selling
High-School-Student Light Novel Author
Copy !req
30. That Has a Succubus Thirsting for Me
Every Night and I Don't Know What to Do."
Copy !req
31. Everything you just uttered was the title?
Copy !req
32. Yup! "SucclDK" for short!
Copy !req
33. It's a slice-of-life, four-panel comic.
Copy !req
34. "Slice of life"?
Copy !req
35. Hmm... Like, nothing actually happens,
but that's what's so great about it?
Copy !req
36. It's nice and peaceful, pretty much.
Copy !req
37. So, the point is to enjoy the
characters' tranquil, everyday lives?
Copy !req
38. Yeah, exactly! Tranquil!
Copy !req
39. Slice-of-life stuff makes you
feel all warm and fuzzy inside,
Copy !req
40. so I usually read it before going to bed.
Copy !req
41. In "SucclDK," the protagonist Kaname-kun
Copy !req
42. stays up all night writing light
novels, so he doesn't sleep,
Copy !req
43. and the succubus Liz-kyun tries
her best to get him to sleep.
Copy !req
44. I've got a huge soft spot for half-pigtails,
Copy !req
45. so I instantly fall for characters with them.
Copy !req
46. Half-pigtails...?
Copy !req
47. Juju-sama was uber cute, too.
Copy !req
48. I wanna cosplay Liz-kyun,
too. I love her so much!
Copy !req
49. Liz-kyun!
Copy !req
50. does show a lot of skin...
Copy !req
51. I'll put more thought into
the next character I choose.
Copy !req
52. Yes, compared to Veronica-tya...
Copy !req
53. Not like I'm gonna, but...
Copy !req
54. Huh? But why?
Copy !req
55. Is it the amount of skin shown?
Copy !req
56. Skin? Oh, no. It's not that.
Copy !req
57. It's not?
Copy !req
58. I mean, I love Liz-kyun,
but her half-pigtails are too cute.
Copy !req
59. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't
be able to pull them off.
Copy !req
60. Only really cute girls rock that hairstyle,
Copy !req
61. so I don't think it'd suit me... y'know?
Copy !req
62. Whoa, what's with the mega intense stare?
Copy !req
63. Is there something on my face?
Copy !req
64. Um...
Copy !req
65. I think they'd look really nice on you.
Copy !req
66. You don't think they would?
Copy !req
67. Huh?
Copy !req
68. Unlike with Shion-tan, who was
a small elementary schooler,
Copy !req
69. you're saying it's the hairstyle this time?
Copy !req
70. Yeah.
Copy !req
71. Why don't you give it a try, then?
Copy !req
72. You like Liz-kyun, right?
Copy !req
73. I think you'd look great.
Copy !req
74. I-If you think so, G-Gojo-kun...
Copy !req
75. M-M-Maybe I'll do it...
Copy !req
76. You should.
Copy !req
77. She looked amazing as both
Shizuku-tan and Black Lobelia,
Copy !req
78. so I don't think she has
anything to worry about.
Copy !req
79. By the way, what exactly is a succubus?
Copy !req
80. I've never heard of them.
Copy !req
81. Oh, basically, they're girl demons...
Copy !req
82. I see.
Copy !req
83. They make men have pervy dreams,
Copy !req
84. and then they suck up all their
semen and kill them!
Copy !req
85. What part of that is
a tranquil, everyday life?
Copy !req
86. Yes, Gojo-kun?
Copy !req
87. Are you sure this isn't actually
something rather disturbing?
Copy !req
88. Nope, not at all! It's super peaceful.
Copy !req
89. You'll see when you read it.
Copy !req
90. A demon that comes to kill you is peaceful?
Copy !req
91. I can't see how those two things connect.
Copy !req
92. "Lullaby."
Copy !req
93. Hey! Go to sleep already! It's already 3 AM!
Copy !req
94. I know! I'll sing him a lullaby
so he'll get sleepy!
Copy !req
95. Rock-a-bye baby, on the tree top...
Copy !req
96. When the wind...
Copy !req
97. blows... the...
Copy !req
98. Zzz...
Copy !req
99. "Chocolate."
Copy !req
100. You may be getting enough sleep at school,
Copy !req
101. but a backwards sleep
schedule is bad for you!
Copy !req
102. Your autonomic nerves go all outta wack!
Copy !req
103. Sure, you feel okay now, but if you keep it up...
Copy !req
104. How dare she say something sensible?
Copy !req
105. Hey, Succubus.
Copy !req
106. I'll give you my midnight snack,
so shut up already.
Copy !req
107. Wow, really? Thank you!
Copy !req
108. They have a milk filling
and they're super yummy!
Copy !req
109. It does make you warm and fuzzy inside.
Copy !req
110. And she uses "boku" to refer to herself...
Copy !req
111. Boku girls are so cute! So effing cute!
Copy !req
112. I'm gonna go grab some other stuff.
Copy !req
113. All right.
Copy !req
114. I see... So this is slice-of-life.
Copy !req
115. How nice.
Copy !req
116. Wait...
Copy !req
117. Could it be that...
Copy !req
118. Zzz...
Copy !req
119. These drawings have been simplified...
Copy !req
120. so I have no idea how the
outfit's supposed to look.
Copy !req
121. Wow, really?
Thank you!
Copy !req
122. There were parts I couldn't
see in the other costumes,
Copy !req
123. but this is on another level.
Copy !req
124. Her back is totally covered, so I have
no idea how it looks at all!
Copy !req
125. I see...
Copy !req
126. Depending on the series, I may not
be able to see all the details...
Copy !req
127. I'll have to think of them myself...
Copy !req
128. I'll have to...
Copy !req
129. Oh, man. It's already evening.
Copy !req
130. We got to laze around so much.
Copy !req
131. Yes. I had a lot of fun.
Copy !req
132. I guess it's all good, then.
Copy !req
133. Kitagawa-san, um...
Copy !req
134. Do you mind if we stop by a bookstore?
I wanted to get "SucclDK."
Copy !req
135. See? You're hooked!
It's the best thing ever, am I right?
Copy !req
136. I think there's a bookstore around here.
Copy !req
137. Oh, there's a clothing store here, too.
Copy !req
138. Oh, you got those?
Copy !req
139. They're always nice and cool, aren't they?
Copy !req
140. Those jinbei.
Copy !req
141. Yup.
Copy !req
142. I bought two of them.
Copy !req
143. You look great.
Copy !req
144. Gramps...
Copy !req
145. I am...
Copy !req
146. currently...
Copy !req
147. at a love hotel.
Copy !req
148. The previous day.
Copy !req
149. I bought a swimsuit that looks like
Liz-kyun's outfit and it's stupid cute.
Copy !req
150. I've finished my work on this, as well.
Copy !req
151. FReal?
Copy !req
152. Actually, how about we do
Liz-kyun's photoshoot at a studio?
Copy !req
153. Your place is all Japanese-style, and the
posters in my room are a bit yikes.
Copy !req
154. Hold up.
Copy !req
155. I found a studio that sorta
looks like Kaname-kun's place!
Copy !req
156. And it's super close to your place, Gojo-kun!
Copy !req
157. Huh?
Oh, damn! It's only 5,900 yen.
Copy !req
158. That's insanely cheap!
Copy !req
159. I had no idea there was a
photo studio near my house.
Copy !req
160. I reserved it so fast.
Copy !req
161. Can you meet me at the station tomorrow?
Copy !req
162. All right.
Copy !req
163. There's a photography studio here?
Copy !req
164. Um, yeah...
Copy !req
165. You gotta pay first, so I'll go
ahead and take care of that.
Copy !req
166. We're in room 303.
Copy !req
167. Huh?
Copy !req
168. Room 303?
Copy !req
169. Here we are.
Copy !req
170. Oh, damn!
Copy !req
171. This bed's huge! It's so awesome!
Copy !req
172. I think it's bigger than a double.
Copy !req
173. If you're a mega-bestselling light novel author,
your bed needs to be at least this huge!
Copy !req
174. It's so roomy, yet simple! It totally
looks like Kaname-kun's room!
Copy !req
175. Ooh.
Copy !req
176. An electric massager right by your pillow!
Copy !req
177. Yeah, there's no hiding that
this place is a love hotel.
Copy !req
178. Oh, well.
Copy !req
179. What's the matter, Gojo-kun?
Copy !req
180. D-D-Did you just s-say
a l-l-love... A love hotel?
Copy !req
181. Yup! This is a love hotel!
Copy !req
182. Y-Y-You didn't tell me that!
Copy !req
183. Wh-Wh-Wh-Why... Wh-Wh-Why
are we at a love hotel?
Copy !req
184. I thought this was a photo studio!
Copy !req
185. Oh, so yesterday...
Copy !req
186. I found a huge bed like
the one Kaname-kun has.
Copy !req
187. You can take photos here
and it's super cheap.
Copy !req
188. Why would I pick anywhere else?
Copy !req
189. So I insta-pushed reserve...
Copy !req
190. And it was totally a love hotel!
Copy !req
191. I finally realized it when we
saw the outside of the place!
Copy !req
192. I seriously had no idea! Sadface!
Copy !req
193. Guess I should've read
the details more carefully.
Copy !req
194. Kitagawa-san actually is like this!
Copy !req
195. But even considering the oopsie,
this room's pretty sweet!
Copy !req
196. It's simple and totally
seems like Kaname-kun's room.
Copy !req
197. If I just... imagine it's only a studio...
Copy !req
198. How can I manage that?
Copy !req
199. I'm not that imaginative!
Copy !req
200. I didn't feel this at the
abandoned hospital...
Copy !req
201. But everything in this room
feels so... mature...
Copy !req
202. I can't... I'm getting dizzy.
Copy !req
203. Just thinking about being at a
l-love hotel with Kitagawa-san...
Copy !req
204. But, y'know...
Copy !req
205. I've been sorta curious about love hotels.
Copy !req
206. I've seen cosplayers have girls' nights
at love hotels, and they look like a blast!
Copy !req
207. Girls' nights at a love hotel?
Copy !req
208. Yup.
Copy !req
209. They go like this...
Copy !req
210. And there's a bundle where you
can spend the night as a group.
Copy !req
211. You're right. They do look
like they're having fun.
Copy !req
212. I know, right?
Copy !req
213. Is that all bread underneath?
Copy !req
214. Yup. I think they have it here, too.
Copy !req
215. Do you like sweet things, Gojo-kun?
Copy !req
216. I've been having a piece of candy
sometimes while I've been working lately.
Copy !req
217. Chocolate's better when you're
gonna use your head a lot!
Copy !req
218. Kaname-kun eats them, too.
Copy !req
219. Ah, so that's why he was eating them.
Copy !req
220. Let's make an order.
Copy !req
221. Oh, thank you very much—
Copy !req
222. Wait, hold on a second!
Copy !req
223. I give that fake-out 10 out of 10.
Copy !req
224. I know this was an honest mistake,
but minors like us aren't supposed to be here.
Copy !req
225. Yeah, if you're normies.
Copy !req
226. We are normies!
Copy !req
227. Okay, it was my bad.
It really isn't a good idea.
Copy !req
228. On that note...
Copy !req
229. I'm gonna get changed.
Copy !req
230. Why, though?
Copy !req
231. I mean, I came here to cosplay! It'd be a total
waste of money if we didn't do anything, right?
Copy !req
232. Well...
Copy !req
233. Wh-Whoa! This tub is bonkers!
It's hella bougie!
Copy !req
234. It's a Jacuzzi, too!
Copy !req
235. Wanna get in with me?
Copy !req
236. JK! Totally kidding!
Copy !req
237. Just sit back and relax!
Copy !req
238. I can't...
Copy !req
239. relax in the least!
Copy !req
240. It's true that we shouldn't
let 6,000 yen go to waste...
Copy !req
241. And yet...
Copy !req
242. Kitagawa-san!
Copy !req
243. Th-This place... This situation is just...
Copy !req
244. I'll just watch some TV.
Copy !req
245. Maybe that'll distract me a bit.
Copy !req
246. So this is what a love hotel is like...
Copy !req
247. But you can't... Do that...
Copy !req
248. I can't watch any more!
Copy !req
249. Gojo-kun!
Copy !req
250. Yes! I'm sorry!
Copy !req
251. I can't even! This is so cute,
I'm super hyped!
Copy !req
252. I saw your sketches,
but the real deal is crazy!
Copy !req
253. Really?
Copy !req
254. Yeah, it's super hot!
Copy !req
255. I'm being modest here, but you're a genius!
Copy !req
256. The fact that the buttons
are pearls is uber cute.
Copy !req
257. And the back of the collar
being a heart is sweet!
Copy !req
258. The collar's good!
It's all so good, I can't deal!
Copy !req
259. For the collar, I matched
the shape of Liz-kyun's tail,
Copy !req
260. and used both chemical and cotton lace.
Copy !req
261. Oh, so that's what that fabric's called!
Copy !req
262. And...
Copy !req
263. I did some research on succubi.
Copy !req
264. Since I was going to make this, I figured
I needed to face succubi head-on.
Copy !req
265. You're so serious!
Copy !req
266. They are demons who seduce men, so there
were a lot of characters in sexy outfits,
Copy !req
267. but "SucclDK" doesn't
concentrate on that factor,
Copy !req
268. so I made it cuter.
Copy !req
269. You totally get it!
Copy !req
270. But her height changes a lot,
Copy !req
271. so I imagined that if Liz-kyun were real,
Copy !req
272. the simplified parts would
look like this or that,
Copy !req
273. and I ended up adding on a lot of details.
Copy !req
274. It's basically just my imagination.
Copy !req
275. If we're going for accuracy of
Kani Miso-sensei's designs...
Copy !req
276. I'd have to admit the cosplay
is technically wrong.
Copy !req
277. This totally works, though.
Copy !req
278. Huh?
Copy !req
279. Like, there are times where outfits in
the manga and anime are different...
Copy !req
280. Really?
Copy !req
281. Yup. But it's totally fine to
cosplay the anime version, too.
Copy !req
282. People making cosplays think
hard about their costumes,
Copy !req
283. and go by their own interpretation,
so everyone's is totally different.
Copy !req
284. But that's what's awesome about it.
Copy !req
285. It's that freedom that makes cosplay fun.
Copy !req
286. So this costume is your interpretation,
and that's totally fine, Gojo-kun.
Copy !req
287. Not to mention, all your cosplays
are so good, they can never be wrong.
Copy !req
288. Your costumes are the best!
Copy !req
289. Th-Thank you very much—
Copy !req
290. Oh, but real quick...
Copy !req
291. Y'know that urban legend about how keeping
a condom in your wallet makes you rich?
Copy !req
292. Wanna try it?
Copy !req
293. Wh-What kind of legend is that?
Copy !req
294. I saw it on TV a while ago.
Cosplay costs a lot of money,
Copy !req
295. so I could use some financial luck!
Copy !req
296. Found some!
Copy !req
297. Here's yours, Gojo-kun!
Copy !req
298. I have to do it, too?
Copy !req
299. Duh, of course!
Copy !req
300. Wh-What?
Copy !req
301. Are you sure I don't look
weird with half-pigtails?
Copy !req
302. You don't look weird at all!
Copy !req
303. It looks like Liz-kyun
hopped out of the manga!
Copy !req
304. Really?
Copy !req
305. I'm actually super embarrassed right now.
Copy !req
306. Wow...
Copy !req
307. How beautiful!
Copy !req
308. Huh?
Copy !req
309. The wig. It's such a gentle
color, but so vibrant.
Copy !req
310. The wig? I mean, yeah, but...
Copy !req
311. Huh? Oh, I'm sorry...
Copy !req
312. But seriously...
Copy !req
313. Once I put on the wings, it's like I'm
cosplaying a 2D character and it's so good.
Copy !req
314. I'm hyped.
Copy !req
315. Um... There're actually some
scenes I wanted to recreate.
Copy !req
316. Freal? Which ones?
Copy !req
317. I made sure to mark them.
Copy !req
318. Did you, like, mark almost every page?
Copy !req
319. I even brought some props!
Copy !req
320. Oh, whoa!
Copy !req
321. We'll totally get some
amazing pictures with these!
Copy !req
322. You are getting sleepy...
Copy !req
323. Oh, no! I wish I took a picture of that!
Copy !req
324. You're so frantic! I mean, I'll do
it as many times as you want.
Copy !req
325. Yes! That's perfect!
Copy !req
326. You're wearing an eye mask,
but it's totally Liz-kyun!
Copy !req
327. Next, I'd like to get a shot
of you eating chocolate.
Copy !req
328. Okie-dokie!
Copy !req
329. Yum! Can I have another one?
Copy !req
330. Kitagawa-san...
Copy !req
331. One more!
Copy !req
332. Um, Kitagawa-san! We got enough
shots with the chocolate!
Copy !req
333. One more.
Copy !req
334. One more.
Copy !req
335. We took so many photos.
Copy !req
336. Yes!
Copy !req
337. For the last one...
Copy !req
338. I wanted to get a shot of her
singing the lullaby to Kaname-kun.
Copy !req
339. There it is! That scene is a must.
Copy !req
340. Let's take it right now!
Copy !req
341. Yes, thank you.
Copy !req
342. Not what you were looking for?
Copy !req
343. I wouldn't say that,
but something seems lacking.
Copy !req
344. If possible, I think what's
lacking is direct eye contact.
Copy !req
345. You mean like, from Kaname-kun's point of view?
Copy !req
346. That's it!
Copy !req
347. Kitagawa-san, get on top of me!
Copy !req
348. Let's get the shot from
Kaname-kun's point of view.
Copy !req
349. On your tummy?
Wouldn't it be hard to breathe?
Copy !req
350. I'll be fine if we get the shot quickly.
Copy !req
351. O-Okay...
Copy !req
352. If I'm too heavy, just tell me, okay?
Copy !req
353. All right.
Copy !req
354. I'm going to lower my hips. Are you ready?
Copy !req
355. Sure.
Copy !req
356. H-Here I go.
Copy !req
357. You're totally fine.
Okay, I'll take the picture.
Copy !req
358. Thanks!
Copy !req
359. Wha?
Copy !req
360. OMG, it's so good!
Copy !req
361. Yes!
Copy !req
362. Per-fec-tion!
Copy !req
363. It's amazing how different it
turns out just by changing angles.
Copy !req
364. I'm...
Copy !req
365. I'm having so much fun!
Copy !req
366. Getting ready, putting on the cosplay,
taking photos and admiring them together...
Copy !req
367. Every last thing... is so much fun!
Copy !req
368. Seriously, everything about
cosplay is so much fun!
Copy !req
369. I'm having so much fun right now!
Copy !req
370. Yes, I'm having a lot of fun, too!
Copy !req
371. I think I hear a voice
from the room next door...
Copy !req
372. That's right! We're in
a love hotel right now!
Copy !req
373. I...
Copy !req
374. I was so caught up in the photoshoot...
Copy !req
