It's hard...

Wako-chan...

Why did I suddenly kiss him?!

MANGA MAGAZINE EDITOR

MACHIDA WAKO

My Ectoplasm seemed to have escaped from my mouth...

I just went ahead and kissed him.

I didn't even get consent to do so!

Really, really, really!

Let's calm down.

Speaking of calming down, what to do at times when I need to calm down...

It's not working. I'm so out of it that the three-tier application won't apply.

Oh, right! Why don't we watch Kougu Transformation? Let's try to bring back ourselves.

Tool is kindness.

Those who betray will receive the crushing blow of justice.

Crushing blow!

"Those who betray will receive the crushing blow of justice."

That's right! Meguru-kun trusts me!

He even comes to my place and spend time with me...

And yet, I kissed him?! Kiss?!

Why the hell did I kiss him?!

STYLE ARTIST

SOMA MEGURU

Meguru, you look so weary today.

You look like that boy who's in one of Moto Hagio-sensei's manga.

It's an honor for me.

Something really did happen, huh?

Wako-chan...

Well, uhh, Meguru-kun... Uhh...

I'm heading home now. Bye-bye!

Why would you...

Meguru-kun?

Meguru-kun?

Oh, this is nothing.

Nothing happened at all.

I see. Well, how about Kira?

[T/N: looking up at his spirit swimming further away]

Your ectoplasm spirit is escaping out from your mouth so close it!

It isn't. "I'm" still the same as "I" always have been.

FAMOUS MODEL

KIRA

Did something happen between you and Asahi-san?

Asahi?! Don't say that name!

When I think of her, my heart palpitates...

Admit it already that you like Asahi-san!

You're wrong!

I, "Kira", still don't know what love is.

That sounds like a shoujo manga title.

What even is... "love?"

What is "romance"? What is "love"?

Well... that's a complicated question.

Are you okay?

Hey, chair!

Hey! Which part of that woman do you even like?

How cool she is! She's my hero.

Then, which side of you does that woman like?

My face?

Your face.

That's all.

I don't think that's all there is to it.

I mean, our face is something that's bound to change, right?

Yeah. I understand.

COLORFUL LOVE: ~ I am Loved by an Androgynous Boy ~

[T/N: We're getting more moment that will set your heart racing!]

You don't look fine.

Even my own heart has lost sight of who I really am.

I don't get it.

Well, just get yourself soothed by Meguru later then.

Aren't you meeting him after work today?

Finally... the crushing blow of Justice has come for me.

What have you done?!

I'm so sorry!

Hey, why're you the one who's apologizing?

It's just me... talking to myself.

What happened?

Amaji made the Director sit at the lower row in front of the entrance during the meeting earlier.

Why are you the one who's sitting at the middle?!

That's because...

AMAJI YAMATO

NEW EMPLOYEE- EDITOR

How many times do I have to tell you?!

BOSS

SAKAI MASAMI

The VIP's should be at the inner space seating!

I'm sowwy.

That's "sorry"!

It's "I'm sorry!" Seriously, you...!

I'm sowwy.

How many times do you really need me to say it to you!

Come on, you don't need to be that mad at him.

What do you mean by that?!

Amaji...

During times of annoyance, you should eat something sweet.

Sorry, I'm refraining from taking in sugar.

Oh, I see.

Has Sakai-san always been the type of character who easily gets pissed off?

I am aware that there are upper and lower seats.

The innermost seat of the first meeting room is a direct hit from the air conditioner position.

I'm one who's managing the projector so it's more efficient for me to sit the farthest front row.

Oh, I see.

I think that's something you should tell Sakai-san.

I'm sure an old man like him won't absolutely understand me.

Old man?

What a shock.

True. I didn't think the facts would be that twisted.

No, what surprised me more was how Amaji actually has his own will.

That's what shocked you?

Well, it can't be helped if you don't see eye to eye with people.

He's 22 years old and the other one's 45?

The generation they lived in is different. The world they live in is different.

Different worlds...

I acknowledge that there is diversity.

Being able to acknowledge that the world is colorful...

Doesn't it also mean that we need to recognize and accept the feelings of hate that we have?

I understand, but...

No matter what I do, it's so hard.

Well, it can't be helped if they both think that way.

What's wrong? Come on, go!

Morning, Wako-chan!

We're working together again today.

About this outfit...

Yeah?

I didn't place an order for this, but I included this since it's very much Kira's taste.

Y-Yeah.

Somehow, he's the same as usual.

Maybe Meguru isn't bothered that much?

Hey, thanks for your hardwork.

Thanks for working hard.

See? The old man has arrived.

Calling him that way...

You're looking beautiful and remarkable again today!

Hey, is that a skirt you're wearing?

Yes!

I see. As I thought, you want to become a woman?

What? Did I somehow say something strange?

Well, uhh... Kinda?

It's not like I want to become a girl.

Also, even if that was the case, I won't say that in here.

Oh... Is that so?

He really is an old man.

Generation gap. Meeting eye to eye would be...

Sakai-san?

Yeah?

EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

TETSUMOTO ASAHI

Otohime!

Otohime?!

Father...

Father?!

What? Is she Sakai-san's daughter?

[T/N: They're both calling each other like they're in the older days of Japan]

What happened?! Did you forget to bring the house key?

I'm on my Social studies tour.

SAKAI'S DAUGHTER

SAKAI OTOHIME

I'm so sorry! I completely forgot to ask for permission.

It's fine. I'm getting permission from the general affairs now.

I apologize.

You don't have to apologize the much. I understand the circumstances you're in.

Editor-in-Chief, can I have a bit of your time?

Uhh, during Kira's serialization last time,

seems like I made an error on the age portion.

Go to your mom or dad's workplace and observe them while they're working.

I told father how many times, but he keeps forgetting.

It can't be helped that you're mad over it.

No. I should have reminded him myself. I know my father is busy.

I see. Here you go.

Are you refraining from sugar?

Can I be able to observe my father while he's working?

I think it's fine.

If not, then we'll go and call your mom.

My mom isn't here.

Sakai-san?

Just a sec! Come here for a sec!

Me? Yes, coming!

Come here, come here. -What is it?

Come here, here, here. -What is this about?

I ask of you! Please let me join you in Kira's photoshoot!

You finally got an approval for her Social Studies tour.

But, why with Kira-san?

Otohime is a fan!

Oh, so that's it!

But, if she meets Kira in the flesh, she might get so confused.

I don't want her to feel sad so even if it's just a moment... you know?

Did you hear from her?

I'm so sorry!

I carelessly even mentioned her mom.

Oh, that's fine. I know you'll guys know about it soon.

We've been divorced for a year now.

I see.

Who would've thought I'd become a single father? I never even imagined that to happen.

It would've been better if you told me.

Anyway, I don't want Otohime to go through a hard time.

I want to show her my good side. I ask of you!

A father has to become his child's hero, no matter what!

Hero...

Wako-chan, you are my hero.

Fighting for someone who needs help. That's so cool!

Come on, set forth!

Sakai-san! Please leave this to me!

I ask of you!

What?! Why should I go so far as to let a brat see me in the flesh?

About that... just please make it possible!

I hate kids though.

And kids hate me as well.

Hey! I'm Kira!

I'm Kira! I'm Kira!

I'm well aware of that.

Otohime's dad said he wanted his daughter make her see a nice side to him no matter what...

Is this okay?

Oh, nevermind.

What's wrong, Meguru-kun?

Oh, it's nothing.

Alright. I'll listen to your request.

Really? Thank you so much!

However, on one condition...

Condition?

Tell me what Asahi likes.

Sushi... besides sushi.

Recently, she's been hooked up with romance dramas.

Romance?! Asahi is? Romance...

I see.

Go and look up what that romance drama is for me.

I got it. Also, that's not plugged into an outlet.

Hey, outlet.

Got it.

Hurry. -Got it!

Kira-san's coming in.

Let's all do our best together today, alright?

Good morning!

Yes...

Otohime, my dear... thank you for coming to see me today.

Otohime...

He said it's okay to take a photo with him and have his autograph.

"Like a bright star shining..." please say those lines.

What?! I won't do it for you that easily.

Like a bright star shining in the heavens ...

A work of art that is alive!

It is I, Kira!

You are so cool.

Alright, Mr. Sakai!

Mr. Sakai is such a reliable person!

I'm looking forward to this.

This is going to be expensive.

The promised item.

Alright, everyone! Let's start the photoshoot!

Oh? What's wrong? Are you perhaps nervous?

Please relax, alright?

That's nice.

Is Kira and my father friends?

I wonder?

Asahi... so you're thinking of wanting to fall in love, huh?

Kira?

Asahi?!

Don't you creep up behind me!

You're returned to the usual you.

I mean, you were acting strange earlier.

So, I thought you might have picked up and ate something strange?

Don't make a fool out of me! That was because...

It's something your subordinate asked me to do!

Asked?

Why do you look so surprised?

I mean, I didn't take you as someone who would obediently do what people requests you to do.

That's because... I'm doing if for your sake!

My sake? What do you mean?

No, nevermind! Listen close, Asahi.

"If you do not see the man for 3 days, wait with keen interest."

[T/N: a Japanese proverb derived from an ancient Chinese anecdote]

That's it!

[T/N: What an ominous evil laugh]

Well, I'm just glad he's back to normal.

For today's shooting, I'm thinking of having Master Kira wear that costume for his manga version.

Alright, I think I can draw this part right here much simpler.

I see.

Otohime's taking a very good look at her dad's cool side.

As I thought, Meguru's still the usual him. I just hope nothing happens at this rate.

Excuse me...

Amaji?

Aren't you in the middle of a meeting today?

Uhh, this is about the meeting with Shinobi-sensei.

Seems like she mistakenly switched the 21 date to date 27.

What!?

So, what's happened to Sensei now?!

She said she'd wait for you, but seems like she went home already.

It's not "seems like". How many times have I told you before? But still, why is this happening?

I'm sowwy. But she doesn't look like she's angry.

Y-Y-You...!

Wait, wait! You can't!

That's not what you should be saying!

Sakai-san!

Sorry, but you need to be careful. I'll go and apologize to her too.

Amaji... I'll go together with you but for now, you need to apologize.

I know this is my fault. But...

"But"?

You never like it when mistakes like this happen.

You're always asking me to make important emails for you.

Yet, you ignore stuff when it comes to me.

See? I'm not good with emails so---

I'm not good with calling either.

More like...

You want me to apologize infront of your daughter, huh?

Otohime! This isn't what it looks like, okay?

Sakai-san is always usually so kind...

What happened just now was---

Wako-chan...

What's wrong?

Machida, it's fine.

I'm sorry. Can you go home by yourself, Otohime?

I'll go and apologize to Sensei.

What should I do?

If I only I stood my ground much better that time, I would have avoided Sakai-san and Otohime from getting hurt.

That's complicated.

After all, we can't make it seem like nothing happened.

Once you see something for the first time, you'll never forget it.

I know that much.

Really? To me, it seems like you aren't how you usually are.

You're forcibly repairing stuff.

That's...

I understand his feelings of wanting to let his daughter see his good side.

That's why I think it's okay not having to put up an act.

We're all fine just the way we all are.

Just the way we are?

I believe you know that the best.

What's up with that?

I don't know what it means when people say "just the way you are" or "who you really are".

Wako-chan?

Sakai-san said he wanted to be a hero for his daughter.

Hero?

To be a hero means you can't show your shameful sides, right?

Sorry.

Wako-chan, I...

Stop.

Sorry for making you feel uncomfortable.

I'm sorry for everything.

Oh? Otohime?

You didn't go home yet?

I have a favor.

Cookies?

It's father's birthday tomorrow.

So, that's why you want to make handmade cookies.

However, we don't have an oven at home.

I don't have one at home too.

Over at mine...

My place does have an oven feature!

Oh, but I'm still on shift.

Is that so...

But his birthday is tomorrow right?

Yes, and I thought I could ask my friends instead.

My father is probably depressed now.

Meguru-kun... do you have anything going on after this?

I've got nothing planned, though.

You guys can use my oven at home as much as you want, so can I ask you perhaps to do it with her?

I have visited Sensei at her residence. I went personally to apologize.

You did?

Yes. I received her manuscript as well.

I would have loved it if you have taken Amaji with you to her place.

I mean, it's just...

Maybe a minor communication error happened between you guys?

It would be better for once if you talked to him properly.

If you want me to go between you and him, I will.

That's right.

Here it is, it's baked!

Oh, it's done!

Meguru-san, you have the skills.

Yeah, I get told that a lot.

The handmade ones I baked look so lame.

That's not true!

Yours and mine are different in it's own good way.

It would be nice if father thought of it that way.

My father does his best way too much.

So I can stay the same as usual with my friends.

At the rate he's going, I'm worried that he might collapse.

Ever since my mother left, my father has always been how he was today.

Of course, it's impossible to maintain being a hero.

Thanks for working hard.

You worked well.

Sakai-san...

Thanks for working hard.

Oh, thank you for earlier.

I am so sorry for what happened earlier!

Why're you apologizing?

It's nothing.

Wanting things to go as you want it to, it completely is impossible.

Who would have thought I'd get cheated on by my wife and leave us?

For a man to left alone on his own, and raise his daughter all by himself...

You'd never imagine all that to happen when you get married, right?

"I want to exert all of my hard work my whole life towards only working."

I thought that that was something I naturally had to do.

Naturally?

The more I try to return from the start, the more I get spun around.

When Amaji talked back against me,

I was surprised.

I will need to properly apologize to him.

Well, I need to go home now.

I need to make dinner.

Please wait a moment!

Otohime's waiting for me.

If it's Otohime, she's currently with Meguru-kun as of the moment.

Meguru-kun? You mean, the stylist boy?

Uhh, well, if you're asking me for a deeper reason... He'll be here in a few moments.

Of course, I'd get curious!

More like, are you guys dating?

Oh? Is this sexual harassment?

Well, uhh... that one now was just... Uhh...

I don't have a deeper reason for now.

It depends on the time and the case.

Well, uh...

Well. if you ask me if we're dating or something, it's kinda so-so between us---

Really? That's surprising.

Because ever since Meguru came in here, you've been so cheerful.

Otohime! We meet again!

I'm sorry.

I actually like the usual you better.

You have a good eye.

Brat.

Well then, I leave her to you.

How about you?

Sorry, I got called by the shop to come over.

Hey, Meguru!

You startled me! You actually called me by my name!

Aren't you supposed to be waiting for that woman?

What happened?

It's nothing. Sorry.

Wait, why? What for? -Come on, get going!

What? Weren't we supposed to talk in that other room? -Come on already, just go!

You can't! Just go already! Go! -I'm asking you what this is for?!

I'm asking you what is this for? Why are you taking me here?

Seriously, I'm not joking. -Just get inside!

Tell me the reason why! -Yes... just shut up!

Get inside! Get inside! -What is this for?

Happy birthday!

I'm sorry, please excuse me. Excuse me.

Hey! Happy birthday boy! Today's protagonist! Yeah!

Uhh...

It's tomorrow.

Come on, just leave it be.

Hey, that's scary! That's scary!

Wait, wait, what's going on?!

Master Kira?

Seriously, what are they making you do?

Hey.

Otohime!

Father...

Alright, brat.

Happy birthday!

You made these?

Don't cry.

Is that so?

Father, the food you cook, are delicious.

The number that you attached to my gym clothes, it was the most beautiful one in my class.

However, I also love the you who's asleep on the sofa with your mouth open during your day-off's.

My father is who he is, that's why I love you.

I love everything about you.

That's why, please don't overwork yourself too much.

I believe everything will all work out well if we're together.

Otohime.

That's right.

As long as we're together...

Thank you, Otohime.

You can't. That'll make me cry more.

It's fine. You can cry.

Stop it.

What's with that? Isn't that Kansai dialect? -What do yer mean?

Amaji.

I'm so sorry.

Well, as I said...

What? What?

I'm so sorry.

I got too stubborn.

Sakai-san, to me, you are an older creature, so I know we won't meet eye-to-eye.

That's something you should never say infront of my daughter.

It didn't even cross my mind that you yourself would have worries too.

The same for me.

I looked at you and categorized you as the lethargic youth of this generation.

But, that's something I shouldn't think of, right?

Amaji, I apologize for immediately yelling at you rather than hearing you out first.

Forgive me.

I will try to learn how to make and send emails from now on, slowly but surely.

And about how messaging goes---

As for that, I'll only have my friends teach me.

Hey, that's the part where you say "yes".

No, I'm sowwy.

It's "sorry". "I'm sorry".

I'm sorry. -Whichever is fine anyway.

I'm sorry. -What's with that? You rascal...

I don't know what it means when people say "just the way you are" or "who you really are".

Wako-chan, I...

Stop.

Sorry for making you feel uncomfortable.

Thank you, Wako.

If Sakai and Amaji continued at that rate, I'm sure they'll end up arguing more.

It's so simple to say "just talk it out" but it doesn't come that easy.

If it comes down to it, it would be so hard to be honest.

I know people live in different worlds, but that's...

...what makes it "compelling", right?

You said that yourself.

Hey, woman.

Oh, I didn't mean "Asahi" when I said "woman."

So I thought. What's wrong?

Go to where Meguru is.

Didn't he fall in love with you, even including your unattractive sides altogether?

How about you?

Come on...

...set forth.

Help me clean up?

Why not?

You fool!

You would dare--- me---!

We finally meet again!

You are you. I am me.

I wonder if that alone is not enough.

All kinds of people live in this world.

I didn't think there would ever be someone who'd understand.

That's why just talk to me.

I know it might be impossible to come to terms with everyone, but...

But, I...

...even if it's only Meguru-kun...

Come on!

Come on, set forth!

Somehow, I've only been getting surprised by you today.

Did your heart race?

I've been hearing you say that to me recently, what's really going on?

It's not about making it race.

You seemed like a whole different person from the first time I met you.

Know more... about me.

And I... will also learn more about you.

Date!

Will you perhaps... go on a date with me?

Seriously?

Meguru-kun!

Wako-chan...

Why're you in such a state?

I came so I can tell you the reason why I kissed you!

I have been thinking about it so much!

Maybe I did it because you looked so cute while you were crying?

It made me hate myself.

Maybe I wanted to express to you that you are not alone?

Should I use that so the reason seems way cooler?

But, that's not it!

It's just that... just that...

My heart was just so full!

It made me want to hug you so badly!

After all, I...

I like you, Meguru-kun.

Wako-chan...

I can be sloppy at times.

There are times that I want to run away...

But all those, I no longer want to hide all of it from you!

I mean, maybe I will hide that side from you from time to time.

Me too.

When I'm with you, I might not be able to stay as the cute and strong Meguru you know.

Once we do something...

We can no longer make it seem like nothing happened, you know?

Let me see more of your unheroic side!

Can I kiss you for real?

Meguru-kun...

Wako-chan... I love you so much!

Me too.

I'm sure...

...this world isn't always revolve around happiness.

But right now, I really am so filled with happiness!

I love you!
