1. Good morning!
Copy !req
2. Welcome to Wagnaria!
Copy !req
3. Table for one?
Copy !req
4. Um, excuse me.
Copy !req
5. Yes?
Copy !req
6. I'm actually here for a job interview.
Copy !req
7. Oh, so you're the one.
Copy !req
8. I'm Higashida.
Copy !req
9. I'll let the manager know you're here,
Copy !req
10. so could I have you wait just one moment?
Copy !req
11. Sure.
Copy !req
12. They take good care of their customers,
Copy !req
13. and it seems like a decent restaurant.
Copy !req
14. I really don't want to work.
Copy !req
15. Well, please have
a seat there.
Copy !req
16. I'm Sakaki, the manager.
Copy !req
17. It's nice to meet you.
Copy !req
18. Higashida Daisuke, first-year high schooler.
Copy !req
19. Huh, isn't this a college prep school?
Copy !req
20. Well... Yes, it is.
Copy !req
21. Aren't you swamped with homework?
Copy !req
22. Yeah. But I actually like doing homework.
Copy !req
23. Oh, I see! That's impressive.
Copy !req
24. Okay, then, why are you looking for a job?
Copy !req
25. Don't worry, it's okay if it's not a serious reason.
Copy !req
26. My father's company went bankrupt.
Copy !req
27. That's serious!
Copy !req
28. Mom, can I have seconds?
Copy !req
29. Sure.
Copy !req
30. Oh, that's right, everyone.
Copy !req
31. Pretty soon,
Copy !req
32. your father won't be kept busy...
Copy !req
33. by his business.
Copy !req
34. A crappy pun?
Copy !req
35. Y-You mean it went bankrupt?
Copy !req
36. These things happen, right, dear?
Copy !req
37. Businesses stop keeping you busy.
Copy !req
38. That's right, Dad.
Copy !req
39. Don't lose hope just 'cause you're not busy.
Copy !req
40. Dad won't be kept busy...
Copy !req
41. by his business!
Copy !req
42. Oh, dear...
Copy !req
43. I put effort into that one.
Copy !req
44. This is serious!
Copy !req
45. It's okay.
Copy !req
46. I've got another job lined up.
Copy !req
47. Oh. Okay.
Copy !req
48. Oh! Okay!
Copy !req
49. The bad news is that my salary will be lower.
Copy !req
50. Starting next month,
I won't be able to give you an allowance
Copy !req
51. or pay your phone bill,
so you'd better get a job.
Copy !req
52. Was I just downsized?
Copy !req
53. This school doesn't even allow
its students to have jobs.
Copy !req
54. Higashida!
Copy !req
55. Teacher, good morning.
Copy !req
56. I admire you, young man.
Copy !req
57. Huh?
Copy !req
58. I heard that you want to help your family by working part-time.
Copy !req
59. No!
Copy !req
60. Your father called to tell me.
Copy !req
61. No, I don't really—
Copy !req
62. I got you special permission.
Copy !req
63. Good luck!
Copy !req
64. No, wait!
Copy !req
65. So, I lost my allowance,
my phone bill won't be paid,
Copy !req
66. and I can't even afford a train pass anymore.
Copy !req
67. If I can't take the train,
I'll have to bike 15km to school.
Copy !req
68. I don't really want to work,
since my grades will probably drop,
Copy !req
69. but this place is close enough and I'm out of options.
Copy !req
70. Okay, I get it! You can have the job.
Copy !req
71. Well, I look forward to working with you.
Copy !req
72. I look forward to working with you.
Copy !req
73. This is Miyakoshi, the floor chief.
Copy !req
74. She's in high school too.
Copy !req
75. Feel free to ask her if you have any questions.
Copy !req
76. Nice to meet you.
Copy !req
77. She's the one who greeted me before.
Copy !req
78. Let's get right to it.
Copy !req
79. Okay.
Copy !req
80. First, whenever you punch the manager...
Copy !req
81. Huh?
Copy !req
82. Go for his glass jaw.
Copy !req
83. Miyakoshi!
Copy !req
84. When a customer comes in, say "Welcome."
Copy !req
85. Make sure to speak up.
Copy !req
86. And when they leave, say "Thank you for your patronage."
Copy !req
87. Right.
Copy !req
88. After customers leave,
clear their table right away.
Copy !req
89. Right.
Copy !req
90. Then you go right for the manager's jaw!
Copy !req
91. Don't feed stray cats near the restaurant!
Copy !req
92. I-I'm sorry.
Copy !req
93. That's all you need for your first day.
Copy !req
94. Get all that?
Copy !req
95. Um...
Copy !req
96. Yeah?
Copy !req
97. Is that last part required?
Copy !req
98. If you don't learn everything within a month,
you'll be joining him.
Copy !req
99. I'll watch myself.
Copy !req
100. Alright, let's hit the floor.
Copy !req
101. She's scary.
Copy !req
102. How is someone like this a waitress?
Copy !req
103. Welcome!
Copy !req
104. How! Her whole demeanor changed!
Copy !req
105. Thank you for your patronage.
Copy !req
106. But I wonder why Miyakoshi
has it in for the manager?
Copy !req
107. You have a coupon?
Copy !req
108. You can't have stray cats near the restaurant, but still...
Copy !req
109. Nipopo Soccer Boy Scouts...
Copy !req
110. Higashida!
Copy !req
111. Yes?
Copy !req
112. How do you spell "scouts"?
Copy !req
113. "Scouts"?
Copy !req
114. Thank you for your patronage.
Copy !req
115. I knew you'd be smart, Higashida,
since you go to such a good school.
Copy !req
116. Is this guy really...
Copy !req
117. No, maybe he's just forgetful.
Copy !req
118. Manager, what's eight times seven?
Copy !req
119. Easy.
Copy !req
120. Fifty-nine!
Copy !req
121. Even a modern-day convenience couldn't help him.
Copy !req
122. Guess I'll clean around back next.
Copy !req
123. I'm Higashida.
I just started working here.
Copy !req
124. I'm Muranushi Sayuri.
Copy !req
125. Nice to meet you.
Copy !req
126. Same here.
Copy !req
127. Welcome.
Copy !req
128. Table for one?
Copy !req
129. Right this way.
Copy !req
130. Here's the menu.
Copy !req
131. Sorry for the wait.
Copy !req
132. What would you like?
Copy !req
133. One coffee,
Copy !req
134. black, as usual, right?
Copy !req
135. Understood.
Copy !req
136. M-Muranushi...
Copy !req
137. Yes?
Copy !req
138. Um,
Copy !req
139. who were you talking to?
Copy !req
140. I guess you wouldn't know.
Copy !req
141. That elderly man is a regular.
Copy !req
142. He gets upset if his coffee isn't black, so be careful.
Copy !req
143. He's elderly?
Copy !req
144. Muranushi?
Copy !req
145. I think she's pretty normal.
Copy !req
146. Though, there was that one time...
Copy !req
147. You need to turn the heat on!
Copy !req
148. It is on!
Copy !req
149. She had taken some time off work for her college entrance exams.
Copy !req
150. The restaurant was cold and dark the whole time.
Copy !req
151. And somebody wrote "Bring Muranushi Back"
on the bathroom stall in blood.
Copy !req
152. But nothing really surprising happened.
Copy !req
153. What's surprising is how unshaken you are.
Copy !req
154. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
155. Oh, Muranushi.
Copy !req
156. It's nice to see high schoolers having fun together.
Copy !req
157. Oh, Higashida was just saying...
Copy !req
158. I was thinking you must be able to sense spirits or something.
Copy !req
159. I don't believe in ghosts.
I've never seen one either.
Copy !req
160. What!
Copy !req
161. What's up with this place?
Copy !req
162. My boss, my co-workers...
Copy !req
163. My co... worker?
Copy !req
164. What're you staring for? Got a problem?
Copy !req
165. This is Higashida.
He just started working here today.
Copy !req
166. This is Kondou Kisaki.
Copy !req
167. Nice to meet you.
Copy !req
168. Um, Kisaki,
Copy !req
169. your shift is about to start, you know.
Copy !req
170. U-Um, Kisaki...
Copy !req
171. I'm all worn out.
Copy !req
172. Worn out!
Copy !req
173. If the customers can tell how
exhausted an employee is,
Copy !req
174. it makes the restaurant look bad.
Copy !req
175. So for the restaurant's sake,
I'll stay on break a little longer.
Copy !req
176. I see!
Copy !req
177. That's good thinking!
Copy !req
178. What just happened?
Copy !req
179. Knock it off, Kisaki!
Copy !req
180. All you do here is slack off and smoke! Why do you even bother showing up?
Copy !req
181. Miyakoshi,
Copy !req
182. what year was the Taika Reform?
Copy !req
183. Th-That's mean!
Copy !req
184. Don't mock me just because
you go to a good university!
Copy !req
185. Um, Kisaki, I think Miyakoshi has a point.
You should try being—
Copy !req
186. Higashida, you go to a college prep school?
Copy !req
187. Yeah, I do.
Copy !req
188. In the middle period of the Edo era,
Copy !req
189. Tokugawa Yoshimune ordered two of his scholars to study Dutch.
Copy !req
190. Noro Genjo and Aoki Konyo.
Copy !req
191. Come on. We're getting paid
by the hour, so let's get to work.
Copy !req
192. That was cool, Higashida!
Copy !req
193. Take the orders that the cooks place on the counter...
Copy !req
194. Whoever's got the floor is in charge of pouring coffee.
Copy !req
195. That's the machine.
Copy !req
196. Got it.
Copy !req
197. I'm Adachi, the head chef.
Copy !req
198. And I'm Kouno. Nice to meet you, new guy.
Copy !req
199. I'm Higashida.
Copy !req
200. It's nice to meet you.
Copy !req
201. Kouno, one parfait!
Copy !req
202. Got it!
Copy !req
203. Those covering the floor pour the coffee.
Copy !req
204. And the kitchen makes desserts.
Copy !req
205. Well, normally, the floor staff does the parfaits.
Copy !req
206. But we're special.
Copy !req
207. Special?
Copy !req
208. Kouno!
Copy !req
209. Sorry!
Copy !req
210. Never mind! Just do your best.
Copy !req
211. Higashida!
Copy !req
212. Don't worry about talking to the customers yet.
Just watch how the others do it for now.
Copy !req
213. Waitress!
Copy !req
214. The coffee here is weaker than it used to be!
Copy !req
215. I'm very sorry.
Copy !req
216. What's that stupid smile for?
Copy !req
217. Would it kill you to show some accountability?
Copy !req
218. I apologize for the inconvenience.
Copy !req
219. Come here, Kamakura!
Copy !req
220. Kamakura, who do you think those people are?
Copy !req
221. I don't know. Commoners?
Copy !req
222. But I guess I'm sorry.
Copy !req
223. Shiho has angered Miyakoshi.
Copy !req
224. I don't want your money!
Copy !req
225. That's enough, Kamakura.
Copy !req
226. Don't look down on us with that.
Copy !req
227. Kisaki...
Copy !req
228. We're worth more.
Copy !req
229. Silly me! Of course.
Copy !req
230. They're all scary for different reasons...
Copy !req
231. She's the daughter
of a company president.
Copy !req
232. You're Higashida, right?
Copy !req
233. I'm Shindou Yuuta.
Copy !req
234. It's nice to meet you.
Copy !req
235. I heard your story from the manager.
Copy !req
236. Sounds like you've got it rough too.
Copy !req
237. Yeah, sorta.
Copy !req
238. I can't catch a break either.
Copy !req
239. I deliver newspapers, and I work at a convenience store,
Copy !req
240. this restaurant, and at a male companion club.
Copy !req
241. Really?
Copy !req
242. It's to pay off my dad's debt...
Copy !req
243. To her dad!
Copy !req
244. Okay, how's this?
Copy !req
245. That's good.
Copy !req
246. Kisaki!
Copy !req
247. So things are rough for you too, Shindou.
Copy !req
248. Yeah, I guess.
Copy !req
249. Wouldn't you make more money by
working at the companion club every night?
Copy !req
250. Actually, this is the job that helps me the most.
Copy !req
251. Really?
Copy !req
252. Shindou.
Copy !req
253. Here.
Copy !req
254. This stuff will expire after today.
Copy !req
255. We've still got leftover frozen food from the sales campaign, too.
Copy !req
256. Thank you so much!
Copy !req
257. We're not really allowed to do this,
Copy !req
258. but it's such a waste to throw away food.
Copy !req
259. All my paychecks go straight towards debt...
Copy !req
260. P-Poor guy!
Copy !req
261. Um, is the debt from a failed business?
Copy !req
262. A butcher's shop.
Copy !req
263. It could be torn down at any time, so I always carry a picture of it.
Copy !req
264. That sign's at fault.
Copy !req
265. Definitely the sign.
Copy !req
266. But considering it's a butcher shop,
the sign makes a certain kind of sense.
Copy !req
267. What?
Copy !req
268. Yuuta.
Copy !req
269. Yes!
Copy !req
270. So he's the son of a man in debt to a lending firm,
Copy !req
271. and she's the daughter of the creditor.
Copy !req
272. Shake, Fido.
Copy !req
273. Shindou! Shindou!
Copy !req
274. Why does Kamakura work here?
It's not like she needs the money.
Copy !req
275. Well, when I was a kid...
Copy !req
276. What happened?
Copy !req
277. It might be because I rejected her.
Copy !req
278. What do you mean?
Copy !req
279. I'm home.
Copy !req
280. So tired.
Copy !req
281. I feel like the only normal people in the whole restaurant were those two in the kitchen.
Copy !req
282. Hey, Daisuke.
Copy !req
283. Do you think the job will work out?
Copy !req
284. All I can really do is keep at it, right?
Copy !req
285. Your father is doing his best to keep at it too.
Copy !req
286. At finding a job.
Copy !req
287. But honey, didn't you already have a job lined up?
Copy !req
288. Yeah, didn't you?
Copy !req
289. Oh, that's right!
Copy !req
290. I totally forgot about that!
Copy !req
291. You people...
Copy !req
292. Rush hour is finally over.
Copy !req
293. You're a fast learner, Higashida.
Copy !req
294. It's tiring when you're not used to it, though, huh?
Copy !req
295. That said, it is more relaxing to work here
Copy !req
296. than it would be to put up with
those nitwits at home.
Copy !req
297. Nitwits?
Copy !req
298. Oh, don't worry about that.
Copy !req
299. Oh, Daisuke!
Copy !req
300. How about you three embarrassments leave this instant?
Copy !req
301. Daisuke, you could at least pretend the reason you don't want us around is because you're busy.
Copy !req
302. Since when do you have the money to eat out, anyways?
Copy !req
303. I'm sure we'll be able to work something out.
Copy !req
304. Yeah. You worry too much, brother.
Copy !req
305. Go home!
Copy !req
306. Welcome!
Copy !req
307. So you're Higashida's family?
Copy !req
308. He's such a hard worker.
Copy !req
309. That so? I'm just happy he found such a nice job.
Copy !req
310. Hamburg steak? Understood.
Copy !req
311. I'll be right back with that.
Copy !req
312. Muranushi.
Copy !req
313. Oh, Higashida.
Copy !req
314. You've recovered nicely.
Copy !req
315. Did my family... say anything I'll regret?
Copy !req
316. I'll pretend I didn't hear it.
Copy !req
317. Wait! What does that mean?
Copy !req
318. Muranushi!
Copy !req
319. I'm here to pay, sir!
Copy !req
320. Daisuke,
Copy !req
321. we may be your family,
but right now we're also your customers.
Copy !req
322. Keep the roles straight and do your job!
Copy !req
323. Why is he only now being serious?
Copy !req
324. Thank you.
Copy !req
325. Your total is 8,280 yen.
Copy !req
326. Okay.
Copy !req
327. Daisuke, I forgot to bring money, so cover me just this once, ok?
Copy !req
328. What about your job as a father?
Copy !req
329. It looks like you've really gotten used to the job, Higashida.
Copy !req
330. Well, it's been two weeks since I started.
Copy !req
331. Yeah, it's already February.
Copy !req
332. Speaking of February, Higashida.
Copy !req
333. Valentine's Day is soon, huh?
Copy !req
334. It commemorates St. Valentine's death.
Copy !req
335. So, then,
Copy !req
336. eat my chocolate!
Copy !req
337. Look, I don't need that kind of pity.
Copy !req
338. That's not what I mean, Higashida!
Copy !req
339. It'll be neither platonic nor sweetheart chocolate!
Copy !req
340. Anyway,
Copy !req
341. please eat the chocolate I make.
Copy !req
342. Promise me! Let's pinky swear on it!
Copy !req
343. Miyakoshi,
Copy !req
344. what exactly are you compelling me to eat?
Copy !req
345. I heard.
Copy !req
346. You took the responsibility this year, right?
Copy !req
347. Of being the one who actually eats Miyakoshi's chocolate.
Copy !req
348. "responsibility"?
Copy !req
349. That's a relief.
Copy !req
350. And it helps that you didn't protest.
Copy !req
351. I had to do it last year.
Copy !req
352. After losing at rock-paper-scissors.
Copy !req
353. Hold on, Muranushi.
Copy !req
354. Does something happen when
people eat Miyakoshi's chocolate?
Copy !req
355. Something does.
Copy !req
356. To put it simply...
Copy !req
357. St. Valentine himself descends from the heavens.
Copy !req
358. That's what it tastes like.
Copy !req
359. A near-death experience?
Copy !req
360. The fourteenth already...
Copy !req
361. I think this is the most nervous I've ever been on Valentine's Day.
Copy !req
362. Um...
Copy !req
363. Would you please accept this, Higashida?
Copy !req
364. Scary!
Copy !req
365. I ended up just taking them.
Copy !req
366. Shindou's getting a lot of attention.
Copy !req
367. I was hoping you'd be here!
Copy !req
368. Here, Yuuta.
Copy !req
369. You're off work at the club tonight, right?
Copy !req
370. We came here instead.
Copy !req
371. Thank you so much!
Copy !req
372. I guess they're customers of the club he works at?
Copy !req
373. I got so many again! This is great!
Copy !req
374. I'll be able to live off of these for a while.
Copy !req
375. Yuuta,
Copy !req
376. Happy Valentine's Day!
Copy !req
377. I've got something for you, too.
Copy !req
378. But...
Copy !req
379. That's money.
Copy !req
380. Take this to the chocolates section in a department store.
Copy !req
381. Find the most expensive one and give it to the clerk.
Copy !req
382. Say, "This is for my sweetheart,
so make sure you wrap it perfectly."
Copy !req
383. If you do that and bring it back to me,
you can keep the change.
Copy !req
384. The change!
Copy !req
385. And if you really want,
you can keep the chocolate too.
Copy !req
386. Um, Miyakoshi. About the chocolate—
Copy !req
387. Eat it. Don't you dare toss it.
You'd better eat it.
Copy !req
388. That's not what I was asking.
Copy !req
389. Isn't there someone else
you wanted to give it to?
Copy !req
390. Someone you like?
Copy !req
391. There's no point in giving it to me.
Copy !req
392. If I gave it to the person I like, would they eat it?
Copy !req
393. I'm sure they would!
Copy !req
394. You're cute and everything.
Copy !req
395. When you keep your mouth shut.
Copy !req
396. Okay, then.
Copy !req
397. I love you, Higashida!
Copy !req
398. Cut the crap, Miyakoshi!
Copy !req
399. Whatever, just shut up and try it!
Copy !req
400. It looks normal enough to me.
Copy !req
401. That's true.
Copy !req
402. You'll be fine! I think!
Copy !req
403. Alright, just one.
Copy !req
404. Higa...
Copy !req
405. Higashi...
Copy !req
406. Higashida...
Copy !req
407. Higashida...
Copy !req
408. Love and peace, my son!
Copy !req
409. S-Saint Valentine!
Copy !req
