EPISODE 5: FIRST TRIP

It's almost the Obon break, and the company is totally chill.

I'll be taking my summer vacation starting tomorrow.

Morizono, are you going anywhere for summer vacation?

Yes, I plan to go to Nagoya with a rail pass, making stops along the way.

Seriously? That's pretty adventurous...

Aren't you taking any time off, Chief Hayakawa?

Even if I take time off, I don't really have anything to do.

Plus, everywhere is crowded this season.

So I figured I'd just take it easy at work during Obon

and take a longer break in the fall instead.

That kind of freedom sounds nice.

Well, I'm single, so I don't have to plan around anyone.

What about you? What are you doing for summer vacation?

Well, I...

I HAVE A CRUSH AT WORK

KSH TRAVEL AGENCY, EAST EXIT STORE

1 MONTH AGO

Hokkaido!

Okinawa!

IF YOU'RE TRAVELING THIS SUMMER, KSH IS THE WAY TO GO!

Why would you go to such a hot place—

- What? People go there because it's summer! - Dear customers...

Mountains!

Sea!

Indoor!

Outdoor!

OKINAWA

HOKKAIDO Dear customers...

Well, we two are incompatible to begin with.

Everyone said we were like cats and dogs.

Geez, you always say the exact opposite of whatever I said.

That's my line.

But this feeling is kind of nostalgic.

KYOTO - OKINAWA

Well, going back and forth like this is part of the fun...

But still, isn't a three-day and two-night trip to Okinawa a bad idea?

Plus, it's typhoon season. If we end up getting stuck there...

I'm a sunshine girl, so we'll be fine.

Probably...

Probably?

If that were enough to solve everything, life would be a lot easier.

Ah, I want to see the blue ocean!

KOKUSAI DORI STREET Visit the aquarium and see the whale sharks,

go shopping on Kokusai Dori Street,

snorkel in the Blue Cave,

explore the remote islands, buy Ryukyu glass, and eat chinsuko biscuits!

How many days are you planning to stay?

Though, I'm sad about the swimsuit too...

Then what do you want to do in Hokkaido?

Me?

Well, let's see...

I just want to relax in an open-air hot spring.

And maybe go for a drive or visit a beer garden.

You can do those things anywhere!

There's so much more to do there! Like, go to a zoo, Shiretoko, or Hakodate!

Like I said, how many days do you think we have?

But this is our first trip together!

I want to do something special and make the most of it!

I mean, it's not like it has to be Hokkaido.

As long as I can relax in a hot spring and unwind, I'm good.

Seriously? Just relaxing in a hot spring?

Are you an old man? We've got two whole nights!

You're trying to cram too much in. What is it, a school trip?

But this is our chance to go somewhere without worrying about being seen!

There's a limit, you know.

It's our vacation, so we should take it easy.

No, no... We're different than we were back then.

Well, fine. I'm okay with whenever you want to go.

What do you mean by that?

Huh?

Yui...

Should we just cancel the trip? Sounds like you're not excited about it.

Huh? Why would it turn out like that?

You don't have any places you want to visit or things you want to do!

It doesn't matter if it's realistic or not! I'm asking about what you really want to do!

I just said I want to enjoy a private hot spring...

...together with you!

Huh?

Eh? So that's what you want to do?

What's wrong with that?

It's my first trip with my girlfriend after all.

Of course I'm looking forward to it.

I want to enjoy our trip without worrying about people seeing us.

Same as you!

But our direction is completely opposite, though.

Well, it's you and me we're talking about.

Still, a bath, huh?

I see.

What?

Well, we could give it a try in the bath today...

...together.

It's too small for both of us.

It's a unit bath, after all.

Maybe we should just go somewhere nearby

and book a room with a luxurious outdoor bath.

Oh, then, how about we go to the nice inn in Yamanashi that was featured on TV recently?

Eh?

Yamanashi, huh?

And?

Huh?

Ah, I'll go to Yamanashi—

I mean... I'm going to my family's home in Yamanashi.

Come to think of it, you're from Yamanashi, right, Senior?

You should go and take care of your parents.

Alright, all done!

Everything's going smoothly today.

Once I get home, I should pack my belongings and read some guidebooks.

Ah...

Maybe I'll check out some stores and pick out clothes to take on the trip one last time.

I MIGHT HAVE TO WORK A LITTLE OVERTIME

BUT I'LL DO MY BEST TO FINISH EVERYTHING FOR TOMORROW!

YOU GOT THIS! BUT DON'T OVERDO IT

GOOD JOB

I JUST GOT HOME AND AM ABOUT TO START PACKING FOR TOMORROW

IF OVERTIME IS TOO ROUGH, WE CAN DELAY OUR DEPARTURE

Aww, he's such a worrywart.

Oh, is this from Yui?

I'M ABOUT TO HEAD HOME NOW AAWRHE[]

I'M ABOUT TO HEAD HOME NOW AAWRHE[] Eh?

The new product wasn't delivered to the pre-sale site?!

Where's it held up?!

Argh! And of course, this only happens when I'm the only one here! It's a conspiracy!

Mr. Mita, please calm down!

Where's the section chief?! Did he run away again?!

This time, he's part of the on-site team!

The fastest solution is to use the stock from the warehouse.

What are they saying on-site?

Apparently, the venue staff is swamped with procedures, so they can't move right now...

There's no way around it. I have to deliver it myself!

Seriously... Why did this have to happen now?

Miss Mitsuya, do we have enough product?

Ah, yes! But we don't have any of the pre-sale flyers and other set materials...

We have no choice.

The three of us here will work overtime now.

No way...

NO NEW MESSAGES

Is she really okay?

TAKE A LOOK INSIDE! PROMO SIGNUP SHEET

Miss Sakura, how many have we done?

We're on the third box.

What time is it?

It's 8 P.M.

TAKE A LOOK INSIDE! PROMO SIGNUP SHEET

It's supposed to be summer vacation. What are we doing here?

Actually, isn't this way too complicated?

We're barely making any progress with just three of us.

I wish the on-site team would come back...

Well, well, troubles like this are bound to happen.

There's no end to this!

Ah, Mr. Mita losing it again!

This is definitely going to take until tomorrow...

No way... At this rate...

Huh? But weren't you taking paid leave for summer vacation tomorrow, right?

Eh? Yeah...

We talked and fought over so many things for this trip...

If I tell him I can't go...

Well, there's no helping it. It's an emergency.

Don't push yourself too hard, okay?

He'd forgive me with a smile...

But...!

I want to go no matter what!

It's all right! I'll finish this tonight no matter what it takes!

Sorry, we're late!

Okay, that's the last of it.

The section chief and I will take care of the rest.

Having enough people on the team really is a wonderful thing...

Are you crying, Mr. Mita?

Good job, everyone!

Those who missed the last train can share a cab.

Oh, I can still catch my train.

Thank goodness.

Now we can go on our trip without any worries.

But I'm already exhausted before we've even left...

Yui!

W-Why are you here?!

What do you mean, "Why"?!

I'M ABOUT TO HEAD HOME NOW AAWRHE[]

DID SOMETHING HAPPEN? After you sent me a message

DID SOMETHING HAPPEN? and went silent like that,

WHERE ARE YOU NOW? ARE YOU OKAY? of course I'd be worried!

Sorry, I forgot about it... Also, I didn't mean to send that.

You... I mean, you've been working until this late?

We're having trouble there...

But still, I'm surprised that you'd come all this way over something like that.

Well, no matter what, I'm just glad you're safe.

And tomorrow...

Yes!

I can't decide!

I HAVE A CRUSH AT WORK I can't decide!

Everyone's having their summer vacation right now.

Excuse me.

Take your seat.

So you didn't take your summer vacation, huh, Chief Hayakawa?

Same goes for you.

Everywhere is crowded this season,

so I'm thinking of taking a longer break in the fall.

Is something wrong?

No, it's nothing.

Have you decided on your order?

- I want to order a coffee and breakfast set. - Once or twice a week,

- Understood. - it's not like we have a set plan,

TODAY'S MENU - it's not like we have a set plan,

A COZY MORNING CURRY PLATE - it's not like we have a set plan,

& AN AMERICAN COFFEE but he has become a regular part

of my morning routine.

KINSEIKEN

It's Kinseiken's famous raindrop cake!

Oh...

I'm glad we came early.

RAINDROP CAKE IS A DELICATE DESSERT, So they only sell these on summer weekends?

RAINDROP CAKE IS A DELICATE DESSERT, That's right!

SO PLEASE DON'T TOUCH IT And they are available in limited quantities!

RAINDROP CAKE 540 YEN (TAX INCLUDED) And they are available in limited quantities!

RAINDROP CAKE 540 YEN (TAX INCLUDED) Besides, you can only get them here!

PLEASE CONSUME WITHIN 30 MINUTES I'm glad we came here.

I'm glad we came here.

Whoa, it's so jiggly!

Oh, it's tasty!

Also...

A trip together is so much fun!

But were you really okay coming to Yamanashi? It's your hometown, after all.

Huh? Ah, it's fine, really.

Even though I'm from Yamanashi, I haven't really been to this area much.

This was also the first time I ate this.

I see.

Masugu, you've got flour on your face.

Huh?

You look like a baby, mister!

It's fine.

Because we're lovers.

That's right. On vacation, we don't have to hide anything.

Ah, the couple over there! Mind if we interview you?

Huh?! Us?! No way!

Right, Masugu?

I've never been on camera before!

What?!

Don't worry. It's just a few simple questions.

Ah, no... That's not it...

Then, could you please smile at the camera with your raindrop cakes in hand?

C-Came...

Cameras are the problem for us!

PLEASE USE IT FOR A COMMEMORATIVE PHOTO Cameras are the problem for us!

OF YOUR TRIP Cameras are the problem for us!

IT'S FRAGILE, SO PLEASE HANDLE IT GENTLY Ah...

IT'S FRAGILE, SO PLEASE HANDLE IT GENTLY

I mean, if people from work saw us on TV, it would be trouble.

It was just for local TV, though.

You're laughing too much!

Okay, sorry, my bad.

Look, we're here.

Amazing!

Look at these flowers, Masugu!

That cheered her up.

It's so big.

Yeah.

It really is awesome.

So pretty.

I'm glad we splurged on the inn.

Our bath is so fancy, too!

Yeah.

Right, we're heading over to Nagano tomorrow, aren't we?

I wonder if I'll be able to get up.

Hey, Yui.

Hmm?

Do you remember?

During the training camp in our third year

when we all overslept, including the instructors?

Ah, that was the morning after that hellish talent show, right?

Yeah, that was rough. We were arguing even during the practice.

Why are you bringing that up all of a sudden?

Well, I don't know... I guess it just came to mind.

It's just...

I was just thinking that night at that party,

we ended up talking like this under the moonlight while drinking.

After everyone else passed out from drinking,

it was just the two of us left to clean up after everyone.

Geez! What kind of company tradition involves talent shows these days?!

And then everyone just passes out once it's over!

Why did it have to be her of all people?

But I'm glad I'm not alone.

Thanks for your help, Tateishi.

You know, you're really bad at dancing, Tateishi.

Oh, shut up!

That time turned out to be unexpectedly comforting.

It was then that I realized I love you, Yui.

Did you know that?

Hey, Masugu... Can I come over there?

Hey...

Stay like this just a little longer...

Just a little longer...

It's not enough...

I need more, Masugu...

Are you ready for your breakfast?

Oh, my. Were you still in bed?

Pardon us.

N-No...

It's so beautiful!

I ended up buying quite a few things for myself too.

You're really knowledgeable about Yamanashi's local specialties, Masugu.

Well, it's my hometown after all.

What about souvenirs for everyone at work?

I guess we'll need some alibi, right?

Just get whatever you like.

I'm not buying anything for the accounting department.

Oh?

Fresh grapes directly from the farm!

What's wrong?

Well, my family runs a grape farm.

But I didn't think that they went to this place.

I guess such a coincidence probably won't happen...

We've come all the way to Yamanashi, but aren't you going to visit your family?

It's their busy time because of the harvest season.

If I go back, I'll just be a nuisance.

You should help them out, though.

If someone like me helps out halfway, it'll probably just cause more trouble.

Is that so?

This is tasty and so sweet!

The grapes at the top of the bunch are even sweeter.

They've been exposed to the sun for a longer time.

It's true! As expected from the son of a grape farm!

But I bet the grapes from our farm are even tastier.

You've grown up seeing this view, right?

It's not that big of a deal.

Yamanashi is really a nice place. I love it here.

I hope we can come back together and see this view again someday.

When that time comes, I'd love to see your family's vineyard too.

S-Sure...

What time was breakfast again?

I think it was at 9.

Is it time already?

No, we've got time.

Then we're still good, right?

Hey, isn't this the same pattern as yesterday?

Yesterday, it was you who did this, Yui.

Well, that's true, but...

Shall we get up?

Hey...

Wanna take one last bath together before breakfast?

This feels great~

Morning baths are the best! I don't wanna go back!

Same here.

But...

We really made the most of it, so I think I can work hard again starting tomorrow!

Are you already thinking about your next project?

Yeah! There are still so many ideas I want to try out!

How about you?

Well, just as usual.

No...

I should challenge myself and try to get a higher qualification.

I'm still at Bookkeeping Level 2, after all.

That sounds great!

Hey, let's both make goals for next year!

Next year?

Yeah! And if we succeed, let's come back to this inn as our reward!

I think I'll aim to make another sweets of mine to market.

And whoever doesn't achieve their goal has to pay for the room, okay?

What? So it's a bet? The Level 1 exam is super hard, you know?

My goal is hard too! And we already decided our goals!

It's a promise, okay?

A promise for next year, huh?

I'm looking forward to it.

Good morning.

Morning, Tateishi. Huh? Did you get a little sun?

I heard you went to your home in Yamanashi.

Yeah.

Your parents must have been really happy to see you!

Here's a souvenir. Feel free to take one if you'd like.

Thank you.

Oh, thanks.

You went to Nagoya, right? Do you have any photos? I want to see it!

Photos...

NOT GOOD Anything beyond this point

NOT GOOD is private information!

Aww~

Oh, right. I wanted to give a souvenir to Mitsuya from the planning department too.

I'll go there.

Huh? Why Mitsuya?

Why, you ask? It's because Mitsuya and I share a bit of a camaraderie.

What does she mean by that?

Wait, more importantly, I just mentioned that I went back to my family's place... Yamanashi!

And since Yui doesn't know that...

She'll definitely...

YAMANASHI'S SWEETS SHINE

Mitsuya gave me these sweets as a thank you in return.

They're a Yamanashi specialty.

Senior, you just came back from Yamanashi, right?

That's quite a coincidence.

Wow, it sure is!

I knew it!

Have you heard of these sweets?

Nah...

She told me all about her trip.

Huh?

She said she had delicious, freshly-picked grapes and delicious raindrop cake.

About the sunflower fields were beautiful.

She also recommended I try the soft serve made from Jersey cow milk.

Have you been to any of those places, Senior Tateishi?

Well... Those places are pretty far from my house...

She mentioned the open-air hot spring at her inn being fancy too.

She talks too much!

She said, "I can't stop talking about it!" It must have been fun for her.

Eh?

Why are you blushing? It's creepy.

Well! I'm happy that my hometown is getting praised!

It seems like everyone was able to enjoy their break in their own way.

Let's do our best again starting today!

Yes!

BOOKKEEPING LEVEL 1

Alright.

A fresh start...

Let's do this!
