Yeah... What?

Nothing's really changed, but...

Yeah...

Right.

Kazuki...

Right. That's fine too.

Yeah.

It isn't right for me to do something as improper as this.

Then get out of the way.

Kuriko!

It's not right! It's improper to listen in.

But weren't you the first one listening in, Yuna?

Rin...

For someone to be calling Kazuki...

this might be the appearance of a new rival.

It can't be...

What?

You're coming here this Sunday?

I got it. I'll be waiting!

Mom is coming too, right, Dad?

Kazuki's mother and father...

This Sunday, they're going to...

Come here!

If I can just get Kazuki's parents to recognize me as his wife...

Then Kazuki's genes are mine...

We're going home, Kazuki.

Wait a second!

I can't wait.

As a newly wedded wife, we have to get home quickly,

and do this and that, after all!

Kazuki, hurry!

We don't have to be in such a hurry!

Rin.

Rin, you're going home early today.

Don't talk to me, I'm busy.

I'm sorry.

Kazuki!

Apologizing immediately is one of your bad habits.

I'm sorry.

Kuriko!

Oh, be quiet. It's not like I've acknowledged you as Kazuki's wife.

Hey, your parents are coming, right, Kazuki?

Why do you know that?

I'll help you do something nice for your parents, so tell me...

what's their favorite food?

Kuriko, what are you saying?!

This has nothing to do with you!

"If you want to shoot the general, first shoot his horse."

In other words, it means if you want Kazuki's genes,

then get Kazuki's parents to recognize you as his wife.

Do you understand?

Don't say things that are uncalled for!

And so, that's why I want you to tell me what your parents' favorite food is.

What is it?

Umm...

Eel, I guess.

Eel, huh?

It's eel?

What's going on all of the sudden?

Cleaning up the house is one of the basics of being a wife.

Now, please, eat up.

There's so much.

Cooking is a wife's duty, after all!

But, isn't this a bit too much?

Perhaps I made too much,

but if we have this much, then...

in the days to come, even if we become an extended family, it will be all right!

in the days to come, even if we become an extended family, it will be all right!

It will be perfect for living with your mother and father too!

Who could have possibly foreseen a development like this?

Kazuki, good work. I'll massage your shoulders.

Yuna...

Yuna?!

I wonder if Father-in-law's back is even broader.

Father-in-law?!

Oh, what am I saying?! Calling him 'Father-in law'...

I'm so embarrassed!

All that's left is that.

A person's image is mostly decided by their first impression.

A person's image is mostly decided by their first impression.

The most important thing in a first impression is the smile!

Let's give a delightful greeting with a bright smile.

Let's give a delightful greeting with a bright smile.

All right, then, lesson one.

Greeting with a smile...

Nice to meet you. And smile.

A smile...

Nice to meet you...

For a day to come where this, the Kazetsubaki aquaculture plant, is actually useful...

Oh, how shiny and big these are! They're wonderful!

They're able to hold their own against any natural eels.

No, these are secretly developed super aquaculture eels that surpass all others.

They're black angels full of boundless energy

that have never been available through standard routes.

I'm going to welcome them with a heavenly flavor made by a genius.

Just you wait, Kazuki.

I've got to wake up...

Okay, Shikimori, you're late!

Yuna, I wonder why she went ahead today?

And so, the heroes of the renaissance

had to write the record of their journeys themselves.

Around this time, there were many foolish...

er, no, I mean pitiable heroes

that missed their chance to write the record of their journeys and lost everything.

In other words, it was an era of suffering for the heroes.

This generation would later be called the first generation,

and these days, it's like they are extinct or fossils.

That was intensified with the beginning of the second generation.

They were successful in creating new types of magical stones and producing them en masse.

Okay, Miyama, no shouting during class.

Even if your own characters are all destroyed, don't make a sound.

I'm sorry.

Well, there isn't anything as enjoyable as playing a portable game during class, though.

Well, don't do it too much, okay?

Yes, ma'am...

Yuna?

Yuna!

What's wrong? Let's go home together.

I'm sorry. I'm in a hurry today.

Yuna...

No...

Someone save me...

No, I can't...

No...

What do I do?

What should I do?

Yuna!

Yuna?

Yuna!

Kazuki?

Yuna! Are you all right?

Kazuki!

Yuna, what in the world is going on?

Kazuki, I have a request.

What?

Please make me...

please make me a woman!

This is no good! It isn't good enough!

I told you that I wanted you to prepare the ultimate and supreme eel over rice, didn't I?

Using the eel from our plant and coming up with a flavor like this is unforgivable!

Young miss...

It'll be impossible to win Kazuki's parents over with this!

This is your punishment!

Father... Mother...

How do you do?

I am currently in a serious relationship with Kazuki.

My name is Rin Kamishiro.

Why you, why you!

Exactly from what mouth are they saying I should say that?

But the thing that is important is the first impression.

There's no time.

We're going to start.

Okay.

No!

Dammit! I lost again!

I can't do it! I can't touch it!

I can't do it. I can't touch it.

I'm no good with slimy things!

I did my best and practiced so that I could get so I could touch them,

but for the life of me, I can't touch them.

Why did you try to handle them?

That is...

I heard that your parents like eel, so...

I thought that I had to become a wife that could handle eel by tomorrow.

We can just get delivery for something like that!

More importantly...

That's no good!

This will be the first time I meet your parents, Kazuki.

I want to be sure to welcome them with my home cooking!

That's a wife's duty!

And yet, I'm a failure of a wife, aren't I?

You're going to end up hating me, Kazuki.

It's all right, I won't hate you because of something like that.

Really? You won't hate me for being this way, Kazuki?

When it comes to love or hate, I'd like to take my time and think about that...

Or something...

If it's not you, Kazuki, then I can't...

Yuna, why are you going so far?

Because they're your parents, Kazuki.

And because you only see them once in a while, we have to do something nice for them.

That's true, it might be just as you say, Yuna.

Kazuki...

I guess I'll try to do something nice for them once in a while.

Right!

Kazuki...

What is it?

I'm glad that you're a kind person.

Then let's hurry up and start the preparations!

Okay!

This is!

Incredible! The split broiled eel is fluffy,

and both the oil's consistency and the sauce's color are great.

It's the ultimate taste, that clings to the tongue. This is it.

You've got quite the discerning tongue for someone so young.

You'll be coming with me, won't you?

Father, Mother, it is nice to meet you.

I am currently in a pure relationship with Lord Kazuki.

My name is Rin Kamishiro.

I am very glad to make your acquaintance.

I did it!

I've finally managed to say it!

How about that, Shikimori? Something like this is nothing!

You just give your parents my regards!

Let's see...

Yuna?

Yuna, you're going to catch a cold.

Now, hurry!

Now, hurry!

And with this, the preparations are perfect!

Winning over Kazuki's parents will be a snap with this, the greatest eel over rice.

With the eel power at full blast, I'll be getting Kazuki's genes too!

Nice to meet you, Father... Mother...

I've done it! A perfect smile!

Kazuki...

Kazuki!

Please wake up, Kazuki!

The time, the time!

Oh, it's already noon...

What should we eat?

What are you saying?

Isn't this when your father and mother are arriving?

That's right!

What do we do?! We haven't gotten anything ready!

We'll figure that out after we meet up with them!

Kazuki! The train station, they're coming to the train station, right?

We don't have to hurry so much, it'll be all right.

It's not all right!

We worked so hard to show your parents your devotion and it will be all for nothing!

Look! Your buttons are all misaligned.

Right.

Kazuki, we're going to go and meet your parents together.

Kuriko...

Kazuki is going out with me!

We're not talking about playing house here!

When it's over, I'll lend him to you any number of times, so...

It couldn't be!

Have you already done it?!

What are you saying?

I can't lend Kazuki to someone who uses such vulgar words!

It's not like I need your permission or anything.

Kazuki is going out with me!

It looks like you don't get it...

It looks like you don't understand...

Cut me a break!

Oh my, everyone is here.

It's so lively. How nice.

Rin?!

Now, Lord Shikimori.

Are you all r-r-r-r...

right?

Yeah...

Then today, allow me to greet your father and your mother.

Yes, hello?

Kazuki?

This is a telepathic call!

Oh, Dad.

Right, right... yeah.

What could they be speaking about?

What's that? Do I have a girlfriend?

Oh, there you go again. I don't have one.

What did he say?!

What? Really?

Yeah, I understand.

Then take care.

Right, right.

And?

The telepathic call you just got was from your parents, right?

What did they say?

Err...

Yes, yes?

They said that they can't come today.

Work has gotten really busy.

They had to cancel for today.

Why you!

How much training do you think I went through?!

I won't forgive you!

Rin!

Seriously! How much effort do you think I went to

in order to prepare the ultimate eel over rice for your sake?

I'm sorry.

There's no need to apologize!

Instead, take responsibility.

Eat the ultimate eel over rice, and make your genes healthy.

And then give those healthy genes to me.

That's impossible!

Why? I prepared this for your sake!

Actually I...

hate eel.

What's that all about?

You see, my parents like it, but I, umm...

have a problem dealing with it. You know?

What?!

Then you're the same as me, Kazuki!

Kazuki and I are together, Kazuki and I are the same!

We're a couple that resembles each other, aren't we?

Don't get all excited by yourselves, you two.

No matter what, you're going to eat it for us!

That's right.

It's because you control it that it's a weakness.

If you toughen yourself with training, then you'll be able to eat it, no matter what it is.

I'm sorry!

This isn't something that apologizing...

will settle!

Please forgive me!

Kazuki!

You won't get away!

Take responsibility!

Stop messing around!

Do you think you'll be able to get away?

Kazuki!

Please, save me!

Come back here!

We were found out.

You two are quite the pair. It's so pathetic I can't bear to watch.

But even you didn't follow through, Kuriko.

Don't say that...

And as that's being said, the next episode of Maburaho is "We Met"

What?

I have the feeling that a new rival is going to appear.
