PLAY - Stray Cat

I-it's an abandoned cat-

Oii abandoned cat

shut up

You are an abandoned cat yourself

I have never been abandoned

I am a stray cat since I was born

such a weird guy

hm? What is your name?

Before asking others their name give yourself one

Do stray cats need a name?

What is your name?

It's Tama.

Tama? So plain!

Shut up

If it were me I would have ignored them

until I got a cooler name.

It's not like humans ask you.

Don't talk so high and mighty.

It's not about being asked.

I'll choose my owner.

Target is a high ranking government official

a beautiful female president that gets drunk daily.

Shut up. Don't talk to me.

I don't want to be thought as your friend.

If they think I am your friend

someone else will pick me up.

Got it, my bad, Tama- Tama-

It's annoying to be called Tama by you!

The Macbeth skit you were just watching

The one about the stray cat?

That was a little different from the rest right?

It's amazing Tsumugi!

You have the talent.

Talent of what?

The talent of understanding Macbeth.

What use is that talent?

Usually Macbeth's plays are

written by Haruto

but this one was written by Shunta.

Ehh Shun-chan did?

Well, if you are a Macbeth's fan you can know it.

Then do you know Shun-chan's favorite food?

Of course I do.

Ramen and popcorn right?

That is when he is thinking.

What do you mean?

What about what he likes to eat when he is drunk?

The food he likes to eat when drunk is his favorite?

Even you have something you don't know about Macbeth.

So annoying!

I'll pour it.

Did something good happen?

I was able to talk with older brother after a long time.

He had isolated himself, so we couldn't talk.

Oh that is what that happened?

Congratulations!

Then I thought what should I talk about

I got told to continue Macbeth?

Ehh? Is there a possibility of continuation?

Our manager also asked me to rethink about disbandment.

Let's continue?

I want you to continue.

I am sorry, please excuse me.

What did you want to consult about?

It's still early, drink a little more.

I also have something I want to consult with you.

It's about you both right, isn't it marriage?

I told you that's not it.

Also I haven't decided if I'll marry Junpei.

Eeeh really please don't joke like that

Do you think it's a joke?

You just shut up and make Yakitori.

Um this is completely unrelated but

why did you name it Macbeth?

Didn't you tell teacher?

No I didn't.

Who do you think came up with it?

Wasn't it Haruto?

It's wrong. Me!

Huh Natsumi did?

Do you know when we decided to form Macbeth?

Aaah we even sent teacher to the hospital.

That day right?

In the beginning Haruto didn't like the name Macbeth much.

Talking of that, have you decided the name?

Not at all, can't think of anything.

I did though, how about Macbeth?

Macbeth?

We got inspired by Makabe sensei right?

Therefore it is 'Makabe's students'

So from it, 'Makubetsu'

It's Makabe, then it shouldn't be 'Makubetsu'

That is because 'Makubetsu' sounds cooler than 'Makabetsu'

Makubetsu huh

It's just an idea, I didn't say it's good

It's not even the name I thought.

Really? Then who thought it?

Natsumi

Ah that is why.

No that's not it, I also found it pretty good.

Got it. Let's go with it.

Why? Think about it properly!

No it's really good.

Just now you didn't like it at all.

It's not like that really, it's not bad.

Also, if it's a name Natsumi chose, then

Junpei won't think about giving up easily.

No matter what the name is I'll give it my all.

Ah isn't that teacher?

Makabe sensei! Hey!

Don't tell him about the name.

Why?

Oh you all

What are you doing?

My child is abou to be born

Sensei sensei, we'll give you the ride.

Ride?

Yes my car!

I won't ride!

Ain't you all students?

I won't allow you to drive

but we are safe

As your guardian other than parents

I can't let you drive for your safety.

Teacher kept scolding us

to let out his worries about birth.

When we told him that we would return

he left us behind saying we couldn't go alone and should stay and observe for social studies.

Hey sensei, did you think of a name?

I have already decided it

It's Taichi.

Did you take that from my name?

It's not possible.

The 'Ta' from 'Shunta'.

Teacher, 5 strokes for 2 characters are less.

What's wrong with less number of strokes?

You're a teacher of Modern Japanese right?

Five strokes with basic characters is

cutting corners.

cutting corners?

We expected you to use difficult Kanji to create the ideal name.

but Taichi is OK right?

You all

if you say that the child who is about to born,

his name is cutting corners, then how do I-

You really did well

Does he look like you?

For real

What happened?

Huh? No

Shunta

Congratulations

Why were you crying?

Because I saw it for the first time, a child being born.

when it is born, it is loved so much

I became sad

Eh? Tears of happiness?

but of course in the beginning I admired it normally

Shunta lost his father early

and didn't get along well with his mother.

What is this about?

He wants to become a pro-gamer instead of going to university.

It's impossible. I will not accept it.

Well, the things he can only do-

I will not accept it. I will not accept it at all.

Teacher it is useless to say anything to this person.

That person won't let me do anything I want to

''Don't play games'', ''It is weird to watch comedy'', she is terrible

''I will not accept it'' -''I will not accept it at all''

On top of that, she forgot about dad

didn't care about my feelings even a bit

and wanted to get re-married a younger man

When I am with her I lose my mind

too good with herself and strict with others

She's a terrible woman.

As soon he completed high school, Shunta begin to live alone

and entirely isolated himself from his mother.

Then three Tsukune (Japanese chicken meatball) and-

TSUKUNE-STUREE (Three tsukune)

Skin, heart and cartilage one each

Kawa, Hatsu, Nankotsu, one-one-one

It's a rock-talk.

This shop's specialty is Bulldog's Toboe

That is Brook.

He did boxing earlier,

many terms are in english right

K.O.!!

Ouch this man hit me

But the shop's name is 'Golf' right?

Haha that is my ring name

This is a very long story so leave it

Let's talk about it later leisurely

I wanted to ask you about a lot of things.

Sensei used some pretty strange words

Eh? Me?

Do you still say it?

''Go and squat''

Nostalgic!

There were 2 patterns

Don't say it like that.

''Go and swat'' and ''Go and swaatt~''

My front teeth ain't even out

Since we graduated highschool, I haven't met a single person that uses that word.

Because it's weird

But you used it many times in a day

I had decided to say the things I wanted to convey

three times.

Hm?

Uh no, my mother also repeated the same thing many times

so I thought ''Oh she really wanted to convey that''

''I will not accept it''

''I will not accept it at all''

Do you meet your mother?

No

There's no way he will.

Since when have you not met?

7-8 years

That many?

How about meeting up once in a while?

She is your only remaining blood relative right?

Just for categorization

And in my place, Junpei met her

What do you mean?

Just for once, with me and Haruto, we 3 went for a meal

Shunta's mother suddenly appeared at our home

two years ago.

Go Matsuda go! Homerun!

Shunta shh your mother

Eh? Ah tell her I am not at home

Why should I?

Please tell her

Haruto come.

Good Afternoon. I am Asabuki Shunta's mother.

I'll take your message.

He is not at home right now.

Then I guess I'll have to wait here

No, here is a little uhm

We have decided that women can not enter even if a relative.

Yes right, it's Macbeth's hard and fast rule.

Then, I'll wait outside. Accompany me for a meal,

you're free anyway.

It's really tasty right

I am glad we were forced to come.

I wonder if it is as tasty as you say

Excuse me, can you please bring me some coffee

Put sugar and milk properly in it.

Sure.

Arrogant behavior even here.

Eh?

No, no

Shunta,

whatever he wanted to do, you always opposed it

so he ran away

It's not like I didn't accept anything

At least I thought

he made better meat sauce than me.

Then,

can I laugh a little?

Stop it.

Shunta, just once said that it was tasty,

my meat sauce.

But because I pushed it halfway

so he got angry saying that it wasn't tasty like that.

It would have been good if he forgave me.

I know myself that I am a terrible mother.

I also know that I can't change the past.

The truth is that Shunta was at home right?

Someday let me meet him

Well then,

this month's live, please come to see it.

Yes it's right

He also won't be able to run away in the middle of performance.

Just a while ago your owner came to look for you.

You're lying right?

'Tama! Tama!' They were calling you by your uncool name.

Even then, will I return to such a person's place?

Then, will you live as a stray cat?

In the end, Shunta's mother

didn't come to see us even once.

Not at all. You should have drunk a little more.

I have preparations to do for tomorrow's lesson

What about Junpei? Did you consult what you wanted to?

Not at all

Because Natsumi was continuously talking to teacher.

I didn't think he would return so soon.

Junpei, I'll soon make some time out again.

Of course it's obvious.

Before the consultation, can I come to see your play like the old times?

Ooooh please definitely come

Should I do the consultation for you?

It's OK, that table needs something.

Yes sir

Natsumi will definitely be OK.

''Do the squatting''

Oh~ you-

I feel like I can do my best again from tomorrow.

Then see you again.

Thank you for coming.

Thanks for the meal.

''Do the squatting'' -You're so noisy

Will you drink something?

Morning.

Morning!

Tsumugi has been good at looking after people since back then.

She is someone who can not leave a hurt person alone.

I, who had isolated myself in distress

was also able to come back because of her unwavering support.

Thank you.

Since when we were kids, she has been someone

who looked after my stuff.

Big sis, can you come here for a while?

She often got scolded by mother for bringing back stray cats

but losing to her enthusiasm, mother welcomed two cats as a part of the family.

One!

In middle school, as the manager of baseball team, during practice it was believed that

if Tsumugi threw them the ball they would become successful. She was apparently known as the 'Miracle Manager'.

When club activities ended, she became all alone.

She didn't go to university either and started part time job

but didn't continue any of them for a long time.

Isn't there a job like becoming manager of baseball team?

We thought about high paying jobs but for some reason she suddenly joined Snack.

Instead of throwing balls, she makes Sake,

instead of writing in score-book, she now writes bills, but even then seeing tired old men feel better is a good thing according to Tsumugi.

Urara-san are you OK?

I guess not.

Hey do it evenly,

I am doing it! So noisyy.

Your phone is ringing.

Leave it. It's better to not pick up that person's phone.

Will teacher really come?

He was pretty drunk.

Is it so?

He wanted to really meet Haruto.

Oi Shunta it's ringing again.

Pick it up.

Aah sorry sorry.

What is 'Demon Woman'?

Eh? I wonder who that is.

You are the one who saved it with that name.

Isn't it your mother?

Recently,

she has been calling persistently.

That is because you don't pick it up.

I don't have anything to talk about.

Why are you being so indifferent to her?

That is because,

she has been like this with me up till now, so it is my turn.

If I think about it now,

right now I am doing everything that that person hated.

Game and she hated comedy and said ''Don't dye your hair''

Then didn't you get your revenge?

No, that is not enough at all.

Do it.

Shunta, what did I say?

What did you say?

Call history is the message of being worried.

My situation is different from your home.

I have intentions to cut the parent-child relation with that person.

I thought of something good.

Banzai.

Banzai?

You, it's painful..

I am back.

Welcome back.

Can we talk for a while?

I have talked about Urara-san, the one I am working with right?

You have mentioned the name many times

She has no home to go to and was looking troubled, so can she stay here?

Stay here? Since when?

Nice to meet you, I am Urara.

Good Evening~

Do you play music?

Just as a hobby.

Sometimes I sing on the street.

Oh I see.

What will you drink?

If Whisky is Shochu (Japanese Spirit)

Then water is okay.

How old are you?

22

Then Tsumugi is 3 years older right?

Urara-san is my senior in the work place.

Is it so?

These are the rumored fish?

Rumored?

You named them after the 3 members of Macbeth right?

May be we will get along

I have also named my bathtub after the name of my favorite band member.

It is a little different from naming a bathtub though.

I'll let you have it.

Listen to it if you please.

Thank you

It'll soon be 1 year since we opened this.

It's soon right.

This time when you have you an early shift, let's go for a drink.

I also want to go

High school students can not go to Izakaya (Japanese bars)

It's not like that!

There are many family friendly ones.

You hate going alone with me right

It's not like that either.

Is there a need to clean for tonight?

You have the idea.

No, I mean teacher wanted to see how we live normally.

Oh no

Oi you you-

When we are finally cleaning, what are you doing?

Sorry sorry

Isn't it your mother again?

No, it's an unknown number.

Then I'll pick it up.

No it's OK

Yes, hello, yes

Understood. I'll give it to him.

It's from the hospital.

Hospital?

Yes.

Yes it's right.

Understood.

Yes,

yes

What was it about?

The demon is

about to die.

Demon?

Your mother is critical?

Till tomorrow,

6 or something

Really?

Wait, wait, wait, what are you doing oi

Go right now

I won't go

Shunta right now!

I said I won't go

Didn't she call you so many times?

Didn't she want to talk to you in the end?

I don't have anything to talk about.

You,

How long are you going to be like that?

It's not related to you both right?

Probably it's not, but we promised your mother to let her meet you.

That doesn't concern me.

It's not like that, at least go in the end.

I don't want to.

I also wanted to meet teacher-

It's not the time to talk about that.

Just leave me alone!

I don't want to do such a boring talk with you.

Why don't you understand my feelings?

Don't kid with me.

Sorry.

I am back~

Welcome back.

What happened?

I received a strange picture from Shun-chan.

A strange picture?

AAH I got it!

Isn't it SOS?

I see-

Wait a min!

I saw this hippo somewhere.

This is a hippo?

You got this place right

Because my sister is good at 'Why' quizzes.

I see, then I'll give you 5 points.

Yay!

Ride the swing.

Did something happen?

I ended up fighting with them, so I have nowhere to go.

Sensei, we have a lot of of candies so have some Shochu.

I brought it

Didn't you buy a lot of Tsumami (snacks paired with alcohol)?

Don't you all eat them?

Where is Shunta?

And then they both have just met her once but are on her side. Unbelievable right?

Should I go with you to the hospital?

No, I said I won't go.

Even I can't understand my own feelings.

If you hate your mother so much that you don't even want to show your face,

how about praying silently?

If it were me, I would do that

because it is the last chance to reverse it.

Oh I see, got it, see you.

He's going to hospital by taxi right now.

He didn't take his wallet.

Ah here it is.

Did he borrow it from someone?

Well it's good

Thank you

Why did you think about coming here tonight?

Did it cause you trouble?

No no not really, it's not troublesome.

This lifestyle is so nostalgic.

What do you mean?

During my university time, I lived with my 3 classmates.

Ehh really?

We were 22 then, even now whenever we meet, we just talk about it.

When we were about to move away, we fought a lot over who will take what.

That's why it is better for you to decide it now,

because after you disband you'll live separately right?

Uh well uhm before this we had a conversation from last time at the izakaya.

Oh oh yes we had.

In June,

we are going to disband, I think you've heard about it.

But after that a lot of things happened,

A lot of things.

The manager asked us to rethink our decision,

Oh is that so

10 years ago, we got inspired by you and formed Macbeth.

Did I influence you?

Is it OK to continue?

Is it OK to disband?

I wanted to hear your opinion.

Well I guess,

you should disband.

Why do you think like that?

Well I didn't become a teacher as soon as I graduated from university.

That too was a road from the bottom, so I understand a liitle,

the pain of having to give up your dream.

Until now too you faced a lot of pains though.

But compared to 18-28,

10 years from now,

are a different kind of suffering.

Haven't you done enough already?

She still has consciousness, so please call out to her.

Your mother seemed in a lot of pain.

Why are you laughing?

No,

I thought teacher will say ''Go and squat''

He was talking like an old man.

What?

Whaaat?

Meat sauce.

I can tell that by looking.

I am your son.

Asabuki Shunta.

Can you tell?

Really,

You're such a self centered person.

Telling me,

you can't do this, you can't do that

neglecting everything.

And doing whatever you want.

Ignoring my feelings, re-marrying and soon separating after.

In the end, suddenly

no matter what, it is too early.

Give me some more time,

to forgive you.

Give me the time,

to start over again

with you.

Sorry

I will not accept you dying, I will not accept it at all!

Don't kid me.

Because I couldn't relax,

I dyed my hair blonde as you hated.

I am sorry.

Thanks to your sister, he was able to see her in the end.

I am glad.

We also tried but he wouldn't listen at all, so it was a great help.

Black also suits you.

I know right.

It must have been hard for you.

Thank you

I'll come again to have a drink.

What is it?

Today is eating out day.

Let's pass today.

why

You're tired right?

You did well.

In this situation, I wouldn't have been be able to think about tomorrow.

Today take your time and give rest to your body.

You're so kind, but why are you saying that?

Let's do it.

Let's eat.

Because for me,

there's nothing except Macbeth remaining.

Why are you making such a surprised face?

So after all you can see the spirits right?

Are they clinging on us already?

No that is imprudent.

I thought you would take a break for today.

These two were so pressurising to come.

3 people please.

Then 3 hot coffee

3 hot coffee, I got you.

Make it four.

Why?

For the spirit.

Then can we get sugar and milk too, if they are not enough the spirit will complain.

Indeeeed~

Got it, 4 hot coffee. Excuse me.

Do you want to change the seat?

Come here.

No, no it's fine. It's better to sit facing each other.

I really feel like she's there.

It feels lonely when you look there.

Excuse, can we get some salt?

Sraightaway betrayal.

Soon salt will come, well then see you again.

Don't touch others' mother's hair.

Isn't your face getting red too?

Don't say such stuff.

I heard you attended a funeral?

Yes that's true, Shunta's mother..

People say the spirit attends its funeral too.

I hope I'll be reborn as a Mahjong champion

I won't mind if you consider me your parent.

I do, since I joined this place.

Then it's fine.

I am back.

Hello

Have you made the decision yet?

Would you please give me a little more time?

If you don't do it soon you won't make it in time for June's live.

Yes, I know it.

What? You are still confused?

Yes, pretty much.

I am waiting for a positive answer.

Shun-chan are you okay?

I feel hungry.

Just say that you want to eat it again.

Allow me this much.

If you are fine with me, I'll make it.

Really?

You want to eat it right?

I want to eat it.

Please enjoy it.

Woaah it looks tasty!

Use this seasoning.

Is it OK?

Yes, use it as much as you like.

I am going to eat it!

Yummmmy, yummy! It's yummy!

Thanksss

For Tsumugi, making a hurt person feel better is warming.

There is no more sauce?

It's OK

What's wrong?

As her older sister, I want her to take care of herself a little more.

Quickly go back to your owner!

I don't want to!

Don't talk meaningless. The home that wants you back is like a flower.

I understood it.

I'll go back for now.

You're not strong enough, go fast.

You too, it'll be good if you find a nice owner.

I, since 3 years-

See you.

Yes, go fast. Abandoned cat. See you.

Good luck

Yes.

What is it? Huh?

Are you looking for an owner?

My house is small and I am poor.

Even then it is OK?

What is this? You're not a dog? You're a cat?

Woof.

Hm? A dog?

Woof! Woof! Wooff!
