Spring cleaning yesterday was a real headache...

So cold...

Good... Almost done.

How are you guys spending New Year's Eve?

I have research to do, so I'll be staying here.

And Frey has another event to attend.

You're going to work during the holidays?

Us scientists don't have the luxury of parties and festivals.

Besides, I'm renovating my laboratory into a level 3 biocontainment facility.

I've been wondering this for a while now, but...

where'd you find the space to put all that stuff?

That's a secret!

Next year, I plan on upgrading to a level 4 facility.

Miss Mineru, I'm begging you not to do anything

that could lead to the destruction of mankind as a species.

I'm staying here, too.

Won't they miss you back home?

Thanks to you, I already got to see everyone for Christmas.

Even if I did go back, I'd just get stuck looking after my little brother.

And if you're going to pester someone, it might as well be Koushi, right?

That's not...!

Well, yeah...

What about you, Miss Serene?

Judging by its alignment with the other planets and its position relative to the Earth,

the Moon's power will be at its weakest.

I will be unable to activate any segments.

Therefore, shifting coordinates would be impossible.

Um... I'm a little unclear on the details, but that means you're staying here, right?

I'm staying, too.

Oh, good morning!

Morning!

Really? You aren't going home?

Nah, I'd rather stay here.

You certainly seem happy, Koushi.

Yes, very!

Wow, you're that excited to hang out with Atena?

I'm jealous!

I never imagined that I'd get to ring in the new year surrounded by friends in a place like this.

To be honest, after wandering the streets without a roof over my head,

I didn't expect to make it to the end of the year.

But now, the Goddess Dormitory is my home, and you guys are my family.

It gives me this... warm and fuzzy feeling.

I can't explain it very well,

but getting to relax and celebrate New Year's with everyone as a family...

It's a dream come true.

And we'll spend the future exactly the same way: Together.

Right!

C'mon, let's make this the best New Year's celebration that anyone's ever had!

Yeah!

I'm not skilled enough to make a traditional osechi meal,

but I'll try to whip up something special!

In that case, you'll need money for groceries.

Piggy Bank of Love

Th-this is way too much!

Go nuts.

After all, it's our first New Year's together.

Th-thank you.

We wouldn't want to send you out alone, so take Atena with you.

Huh?!

Oh, unfortunately, I'm a little busy at the moment...

Gotcha. Then...

I don't mind going with him.

Thanks, Kiriya.

Is there anything else we need?

Crab Moon Crackers.

Sorry, Koushi!

But I've gotta finish your present before the year is over.

Just hang in there, okay?

Seiyuu Supermarket

Do you have a cold?

No, I'll be alright.

I wonder what's up with Miss Atena...

I hope I didn't say something that upset her...

You seem kinda down. Are you okay?

Yeah! Sorry. I'm fine!

Okay.

Then let's grab some toshikoshi noodles and-

Nuh-uh, no instant noodles!

I'll make a meal from scratch.

I mean, we had them last year...

Since this is a special occasion...

...adding some shrimp would be nice!

Does tempura soba sound okay to you?

Are you going to fry the shrimp yourself?!

Of course!

Oh, but if we want it to be fresh, I really ought to come back and buy it on New Year's Eve...

Wow, good point...

H-hey, um...

It might not be such a bad idea for a girl to know how to cook, right?

So, do you think...

Koushi?

Koushi?!

Finished!

Come quick!

It's Koushi!

Koushi passed out at the store?!

Please, Koushi! Open your eyes!

Koushiiiii!

I-I'm already awake!

This is just an excuse to smother me, isn't it?!

Koushi is seriously ill!

Yikes, so aggressive!

That's quite the fever.

Acute inflammation of the upper respiratory tract

resulting from the presence of unspecified microorganisms.

It's a cold.

I've been having weird chills since this morning, but I didn't think much of it...

You scared the crap outta me, collapsing like that!

I'm sorry...

My legs were sorta shaky, that's all.

You have to be more careful.

I mean, it's bad enough that you overwork yourself!

It's true.

You always sleep like a log.

But I need to get things ready for New Year's.

I'm fine, I promise-!

Nope. Lay back down.

Please.

She's right. Take a nice, long nap.

In fact, shall I sleep with you?

Knock it off, Frey!

It goes without saying, but in order to cure a cold,

the patient requires adequate rest, nourishment, and a devoted nurse.

Whether or not Koushi will recover depends on us.

If it's a nurse he wants...

...it's a nurse he'll get!

Wow!

An angel in white...

I'll have Koushi back to normal before you know it!

Are you trying to turn the Goddess Dormitory into a strip club?!

Aw, I have a matching outfit for you too, Atena...

Not a chance!

But it's one of my most cherished creations...!

Good nutrition is the best way to beat a cold!

Here goes!

Kiriya.

Serene will gladly consume the remaining bits of fruit.

Carry on.

Hya!

Next.

Take that!

Next.

Say your prayers!

No, not the durian!

Is Koushi okay?!

Is he alive?!

Don't die on me, Koushi!

Sutea?!

Where does it hurt? Your stomach? Your head?!

C-calm down!

It's just a cold! A cold!

A cold...?

That's right. I have a small fever.

I thought you were going to disappear and leave me all alone again...

Don't be ridiculous.

Then don't make me worry!

S-sorry...

How's your fever?

Huh?

How high of a fever are we talking?

H-hey...

I'm a professional when it comes to fevers.

Yeah, I know. Which is why you shouldn't...

Lemme see.

Sutea...

S-Sutea...?

I-it's hot...

H-hey!

U..um, we were just-

We know.

She's a good kid, that Sutea.

She was so worried about you that she rushed right over.

She wants you to get well as soon as possible.

And we do, too.

I need to focus on feeling better...

Miss Frey?!

Now, let's begin your examination.

Go ahead, take a deep breath in... and out.

W-wait...! Go ahead, take a deep breath in... and out.

Go ahead, take a deep breath in... and out.

My goodness, Koushi. You're so sensitive...

What the heck are you doing?!

Oh, that was fast.

What part of "Koushi is sick" don't you get?!

That's why I was nursing him back to health!

It's obvious that you're just playing doctor.

Oh, "playing doctor," you say?

What a naughty suggestion, Atena.

P-please don't tease me like that!

Koushi...

drink this juice I made!

I-I, uh...

Don't stoop to her level, Kiriya!

I wasn't! I just wanted to help-

Watch out!

M-my bad, Atena...

I'll be fine.

Are you okay, Koushi?

Wh-why did my shirt fall off?!

Atena! I'm so sorry!

W-well, get some rest, Koushi.

We'll be sure to clean up the mess later.

O-okay...

With Koushi down for the count, we need to handle the housework.

I'll give the bathroom a good scrub.

I will assist.

Then I'll take care of the laundry.

Thanks, guys.

I was sweating...

Dorm Mother's Room

Koushi

Well, at least it seems like my fever's gone down...

Koushi?

You should go back to bed.

I got kinda sweaty, so I wanted to rise off.

Oh.

In that case, I'll go ahead and wash your pajamas for you.

Please don't trouble yourself.

I can run them through the washing machine later.

You must be uncomfortable. C'mon, take this off.

I..I told you, I'm fine-

Don't worry. I help my little brothers change clothes all the time.

I-I'll get these washed!

Th-thank you!

Welcome to the Goddess Dormitory Bathhouse!

We're delighted to see you!

Wha-?

What on earth is all this...?

Ready, set...!

Right this way, sir!

Sit back, relax, and we'll heal that cold of yours in no time flat.

What are you doing?!

"Seeing is believing."

Let's start with an aroma oil that's good for colds.

A blend of 128 types of herbs grown in the moonlight,

the most prominent of which is the bay leaf.

We'll rub it gently into your skin~

More oil for optimal lubrication.

Laundry Room

Wh-wh-what the heck is wrong with me?!

I-I appreciate the concern, but I'm gonna pass!

Koushi?

Just put these on for now!

Thank you very much-?!

Oh, my God! I made everything worse again!

I'm such a screwup... I'm so sorry...

Y-you had them ready for me! Plus, they're nice and cool!

That was really kind of you, Miss Kiriya!

Do you mean it?

Sure I do!

In fact, I'm so comfy that I feel like sweeping the leaves up outside!

Whew! All in a day's work, am I right?!

Will you be okay?

Of course!

And it's all thanks to you, Miss Kiriya!

Alright, if you insist.

Just promise that you'll take it easy.

I will!

Nope, I'm not cold at all-

If we don't want him to get even sicker, we have to feed him a nutritious meal.

Yeah, but isn't plain ol' rice soup kinda boring?

It doesn't matter if it's boring!

Now I just need to add the eggs...

About the eggs...

I cracked them, admired them, and drank them. All of them.

You drank them?! All of them?!

They possess a pleasing shape that is reminiscent of the Moon.

Jeez... How am I supposed to make soup without eggs?

At times like this, I suggest Mineru's patented Special Seasoning!

Once consumed, it effectively obliterates any remnants of the virus left in the patient's system.

No, thanks!

What happens if you accidentally obliterate Koushi, too?

Nah, that won't happen!

Probably.

What do you mean, "probably"?!

Uh-oh... I think my fever came back...

C'mon, let's give it a try!

C'mon, let's give it a try! Um... 'scuse me.

No, it's way too dangerous! Um... 'scuse me.

No, it's way too dangerous! C-can I have something warm to drink...?

C-can I have something warm to drink...?

What the...?

Whoopsie, that must've been the failed batch...

Gimme a break, Mineru!

Huh?

Nooooo! Why only our clothes?!

Wowie, this is quite the pickle...

Oh look, we match!

39.4°C...

The neighborhood clinic is already closed for the holidays.

If his fever hasn't broken by tomorrow,

let's take him to the hospital in the next town over.

Good idea. It looks like he's pretty miserable.

Perhaps we should've taken things more seriously...

All we can do for now is keep an eye on him.

We'll each take turns-

I'll stay with him! We'll each take turns-

I'll stay with him!

Atena, you can't do it alone!

She's right. Let us help-

No.

It's my fault for not being there for him in the first place...

I want to stay by Koushi's side.

Please!

Alright.

Let's leave Koushi to Atena.

We'd probably just screw everything up again, anyway...

Sorry. But let us know if you need anything, okay?

Thank you!

That being said, don't push yourself too hard.

We can take over for you whenever.

Right.

Analytical Chemistry

Are you sure I can't walk you home?

Nah. I'd rather you look after Koushi.

Please take good care of him.

Even if I were to stay, there's not much I can do...

Right.

He'll be fine, I'm sure...

Can I come in?

Sure.

I'll handle the laundry.

Thank you.

Take care of him for me, okay?

Of course.

Hang in there.

My powers are inoperable. However...

He's still pretty warm...

It must be awful...

I'm sorry. If I could, I'd switch places with you in a heartbeat...

Please get well soon.

For Atena

Koushi!

Is his fever getting worse?!

It's going to be alright...

Koushi...

M-Miss... Atena...

Koushi?

Miss... Ate...na...

I'm right here.

Don't worry. I'm not going anywhere.

Koushi...

Do you remember the day we first met?

If a man was going to become our dorm mother, then I was dead set on moving out.

I said some terrible things...

And yet, even though I was deathly afraid of men...

Well, maybe I still kind of am...

But I found the courage to realize that you were different.

And you protected me when I ended up in uncomfortable situations with men.

It made me so happy, and I knew that I could trust you.

It was the first time I had ever felt so safe and secure.

Since you came to live with us, we've had our ups and downs...

There were some really embarrassing moments, and perhaps a few inappropriate ones as well...

But it was fun.

I discovered something new every day.

The way that we laughed together;

the fact that I could relax and enjoy spending time with a guy...

I never thought it was possible.

And I owe it all to you, Koushi.

I can't thank you enough.

And that's why I can say this with total confidence:

Back then, I'm so glad that I went and found you on that bench.

I'm so glad that you came here...

and that you agreed to be the dorm mother for the Goddess Dormitory.

But you know what?

There are so many things I haven't gotten the chance to tell you.

So please... get well soon.

I want to spend even more time with you,

and I want to chat with you, and laugh with you,

get mad at you, cry with you...

And then...

I...

M-Miss Atena...

Has she been looking after me this whole time...?

Morning, Koushi.

Good morning, Miss Atena.

Seems like your fever's gone.

Yeah.

Shouldn't you take it easy for another day or two?

If I do that, I might end up sleeping through New Year's Eve.

Everyone's here to celebrate, so it'd be a huge waste.

Oh, fine. If you insist...

Here.

Huh? For me?

Well, I wouldn't want you to catch another cold...

They're probably not the best in the world, but...

Can I... wear them right now?!

Go ahead.

They're really warm!

Glad to hear it.

Oh, that reminds me.

I need to go and buy shrimp for the toshikoshi noodles later, so...

Of course I'll go!

We'll go together.

Yeah, together!

In that case, let's all go.

You can't get rid of us that easily.

I'll carry the shopping bags.

The Crab Moon Crackers require replenishment.

Koushi!

Are you feeling better now?!

Yeah, let's go to the store!

Everyone, together.
