At last, the Summer Reinforcement campaign begins today
These two months of summer are the period of time where the number of sales falls the most
Thank you for taking care of my husband
I'm Mrs. Tamura
Director Tamura... after all, you're an unreachable man
Each department's top seller will be given a prize from the director
Furthermore, the top 4 best sellers will be gifted with a gorgeous 2 days travel to a hot spring.
Your lucky colour this year is pink
Thank you
Isn't he cool ?
I have a house in Nishizu, if that's fine with you...
Of course, it's not just the two of us ! You could go with those who are also having a break with you...
Yes, I would like to come
- Then, today again, we're counting on you - Yoroshiku onegaishimasu
Megumi ?
ME-GU-MI !
Why are you smiling like this ?
No reason...
Huh ? Aren't your breasts a bit bigger ?
Really ?
Just kidding~
- You want to go, right ? - Huh ?
The hot springs !
Yeah
I'm happy to go with you to the sea and a hot spring
What ? The sea ?
It's all good for you... since both of you are the no.1 and 2 sellers
I won't go there since I'm no.81
Why are you giving up before trying ?
I will definitely be in the first four places !
Yes, that's the spirit !
It seems that everybody's in high spirits
No, I will only be doing my job as usual as I am not interested in hot springs
Because you'll be seen naked in the bath, right ?
Let's go !
It's time for us to show our hidden strength !
We will beat them into pulps and the three of us will go to the hot spring
Like a pulp ?
Well, you could go but...
Since Aoyagi-san and Mariya-san are there, just one of us would go and...
Just one, that's impossible...
I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear you grieve.. !
Hey, don't you have any pride as a salesperson ?
No matter what methods you use, just keep selling, keep selling !
Show some guts !
YES !!!
If you understand this, that's fine. Let's try our best ! Right ?
Ooyama-san sure is motivated
That's okay for her, but, will the other two do okay ?
No way, no way ! Reality isn't so nice
If I lose to them, I won't be able to live !
I have to do my best!
Baka~
Okay, so you have been invited to the sea too ?
Yes ! The manager, me and on the other side, Uenohara-san and Sudo-san
A Double Date ! Super fun !
- Haaa !~ - What ?
Would you like to see swimsuits during our break ?
Swimsuits ?
They're doing a special 20% off
If we add the sales staff reduction price, that would be 30% off !
I don't really like to swim in the sea
You get sunburn..
What are you saying ?
We will go all the way to Nishizu ! Don't tell me you are not going to swim in the sea...
It's vacation ! Let's have plenty of fun !
And choose a well-matched bikini properly
I'd rather go alone..
Ah ! So cute !~
With this, you'll be almost naked !
This one is cute too !
That's this year's Gyuko. I think it will suit you very well [Gyuko: swimsuit brand]
- Would you like to try is ? - Yes
So quick !
Shows too much skin..
This one is weird..
Would I be fine with this ?
Aoyagi-san ! It's unusual to see you to pick a swimsuit !
I'm with someone ! I'm just with someone...
That's not good !
A woman with big breasts will look nice with any swimsuits, but for you... this way !
Wait...!
Be relieved ! A pad revolution has occured in 2007
A revolution ?
Here's it ! In this pad, there's numerous layers
You won't believe it, it will give you two sizes up !
Two sizes up ?
Name: Mille-feuilles Pad ! (A Mille-feuille is a french pastry made with multiple layers)
- Mille-feuilles Pad ? - That's a funny Mille-feuilles
They've had them made this way, right ?
That's the valley between the breasts
Your lucky colour this year is pink
Have you got a pink swimsuit ?
We have !!!
- Ta-da ! It's a Mille-feuilles - A Mille-feuilles !
Two sizes up !! Mille-feuilles !!!!
Aoyagi-san ! I've chosen mine too !
I'll buy it ! I'll buy it !
Isn't it cute?
It's good that you like it, but, can you hide it ?
- Show me yours ! - No way !
- That's not fair~ I want to see it~ - I said no !
I want to see it !~
Sorry !
Pink ! It's very cute !
What's this fluttering thing ?
Isn't this a pad ? It's like the shell of a gyoza...
This...
I'll take it back
Aoyagi, you're more audacious than it seems
Nice timing, I have something to tell you
There's an exhibition of fall goods
To study the actual seasonal change occurance of goods,
could you go with Matsubara?
And it will be a good experience for Mariya
Yes ! Please take me with you !
I'll leave it to you
Understood
Yama Onna, Kabe Onna
Timings : Tianj Editor : Furransu Translation : Moderagio
Presentation of new brands Presentation of the fall bags collection
Ah ! That's so cute !
This bag is calling me !
Matsubara-san, this one is surely a kill !
I'll sell it ! I will absolutely sell it !
Understood ! If you say so, I'll put it in stock !
Really ?
Because I'm a buyer with a very good sense
Thank you !!
Ah ! It's really cute !
Hey, you two, don't talk so loud ! It's rude !
Sorry...
Plus, do you think we can sell this ?
Isn't it cute ?
- Sure, we can right, Matsubara-san ?
Yes, the design is attractive
By the way, this shape is popular in Europe
It won't sell just because it's cute
That's a bag for young people right ? Take a good look at the price
- Woah ! Expensive ! - Isn't it ?
But I'm sure the customers would be satisfied if I tell them to buy this
I'm sure they will have "a happy wedding"
I agree !
"A happy wedding" ?
Calm down a minute please
Sure, I think the design is good, but, with this price the number sold won't be as good
Consider seriously the number of sales and the customers
I look like an apprentice...
and i'm the senpai...
This one is cute too !
Thank you
Why are you dreaming like that ?
Smile !
Greet the customers more positively !
Since Yama and Kabe aren't here, it's the best chance we have to increase our sales !
Yes....
Welcome ! This bag is the last one out of this year's new goods
The last one ?
As a part of Vento's designed goods, the price too is lowered
Please, try it on your hands
- He's nice - He suits you very well
- The last one? - Yes !
- Thank you - Thanks
Welcome
Miss, you are lucky today...
This bag is the last one of our new goods
The last one ?
Thank you
Welcome
This bag is the last one of our new goods
Thank you
"The last one"...
Miss, this bag is the last one of this model in this store
Isn't it the same one ?
How is it ?
Ah ! So cool...
If there was a bit more breast....
No... I didn't say anything !
How is it ?
Is it weird ?
Your breasts hide the bag !
Huh ? I can't see the bag !
"I can't see the bag" ?
I can ONLY see the bag...
Here !
The breasts has defeated the length of Shoulder Bags
Splendid !
It is most suitable for travel, right ?
Maybe I'll take it to the sea next time
The sea ? Are you going to the sea ?
Yes ! It's a double date with Aoyagi !
She's shattering again...!
A double date !
God ! It's the wish of a life-time !
Make rain fall a lot on the day of the double date !
Let's rain !
Let the wind blow !
Let's rain !
Let the wind blow !
Rain ! Come, wind !
Stupid rain... I was so anticipating it...
Nee-chan ?
What ?
Nee-chan... Arh ! What's this ?
Ah this... Don't unfasten it in your room.
Anyway, there's no visitor coming.
That's huge !
It's stiff but... ! It could be a helmet !
Look !
What are you doing ? Give it back !
So, why are you here?
What was it.. ?
I have forgotten because of the Holstein's bra.. (Holstein : German cow breed. That's approximatively 98% of the cow raised in Japan)
That's uselessly huge !
- Shut up ! - Ouch !
God, I'm grateful !
Rain, rain, rain more !
Director...
Stop, rain !
Come out sun !
Stop ! Come out !
This rain is a shame...
Isn't it raining just here?
Too late, perhaps it was better than I didn't go
Because you don't have to wear a swimsuit ?
Don't say impolite things !
Megumi is a beautiful woman and has a nice style, that's already enough..
The super-models have no breast too...
That's why this is...
Yuko-chan...
Almost... Almost...
Welcome
- It's been a while ! - Iguchi-kun !
Yo, Kabe Onna !
It's AOYAGI !
Because of the rain, malfunctions go up
- A beer ! - Yes
How did you find this place ?
She gave me this
What ?
My kouhai from highschool, Iguchi kun
- He's you husband ? - Yes
I'm Iguchi, please treat me kindly
I'm Harada, Please treat me ki...dney beans ! (More or less the lousy pun he has made)
Is the work going well ?
More or less...
I left my parents' home...
Lately I'm working as plasterer in Tokyo
- A Plasterer in Tokyo ? - Yes
Ah, Iguchi-kun, arrange our shop wall
This wall is just fine !
It will take time before I paste it.
Don't talk about WALL !
I will come here from time to time
Give me a break !
This is the place where I can rest my mind !
- Come on ! You're cold with me ! - Stop it !
What are you saying ? You have called her "Kabe Onna" like she was some kind of monster
You hurt her, for sure, she's cold with you !
Ah ? Did you mind the name "Kabe Onna" ?
Sure, that seems gross...
Then from now, it will be "kirigirisu onna"
A Bush-cricket?
She reacts right away and her body is thin and bony... That's the spirit [kirikiri: right away, gisugisu: thin and bony]
You are a man without a single piece of delicacy !
Have delicacy you must...ard ? (More or less the lousy pun he has made)
The trauma Megumi has, you started it.. Do you understand ?
A trauma ? That has been an eternity...!
Stop this conversation !
She's right. It's been a while since we have sat together, we should have fun.
Pokumo-san !
Oh ! Iguchi !
- She's your girlfriend ? - No, you're wrong
She's in my class, the name's Aoyagi.
- Yoroshiku - Yoroshiku
Love at first sight ?
What ?
Huh ? Rice ! Rice ! I have to buy Hitomebore (Hotomebore is a variety of rice but means "love at first sight" too)
Hi ! Dad ?
Ah, sorry !
I'm very sorry !
I have made a terrible mistake
About what ?
The pink pig
I had the wrong version.
It has to face the south
Did it rain because it was not in the good direction ?
The north is there !
Pinky-chan !
Try your best, Pinky !
Hi ! Is this Uenohara-san ?
- That's too bad... - Yes
Have you got plans for the day after tomorrow ?
The day after tomorrow ?
I work early, so if it's after 7 o'clock PM...
Would you like to dinner with me ?
I have something important to tell you...
Yes, I definetely will...
Thank you. Then, at 7:30 in front of City Jewelry
Understood. Bye
He said it was something important...
Pinky ! You have a great bulky storage, right !
I love you !!!!
Pray strongly !
Bust up ! Bust up !
Good morning !!!
Aoyagi-san is more beautiful than usual, isn't she ?
Her aura is strengthened !
- Perhaps... is it a date ? - You're wrong
Then why are you dressed up?
- Change of mood ? - You can't fool me
- You made the same face for your first date four years ago - Really ?
As I thought, it's a date ! Great !
Who is your date?
Could it be Uenohara-san by chance ?
Who knows~
Oh ! Please tell me ! I'm curious !
Enough with the chattering, it's almost the opening time
Yes..
I heard you have a date ?
You haven't put your pads on ?
I don't need them anymore
Breathing with sex appeal...
The damn elite won't understand how I suffered to be able to come here
While you're all lovey-dovey, I'm gonna steal your top position
- What are you doing ? - No.. Nothing
That's great, I was looking for you.
Are you free today ? Would you like to go to the opera ?
I have VIP tickets...
What about a Peking Duck after ?
It's expensive, but it's a very good place
That's a shame, but, I have an arrangement
Then, decline it
Erm.. come on... I have an important speech about work.
If that's about work, there's no need to go to the opera right ?
Well... that.... will deepen our friendship
- You won't learn, right ? - What ?
I have said it before... As a managing director, please separate business and personal affairs
- Managing Director ? - Oh ! What ?
People say Aoyagi has a date tonight.
What ? With who ?
With a young IT company president
Annual income, 40,000,000 Yen !
- A company president... - Yes
40,000,000 Yen ?
Well if it doesn't bother you, why don't we go together like the old times ?
What ?
That would be a waste since you struggled to get the opera tickets
Sorry to be late
No, I have just arrrived
Even from there, I've recognized you immediately
Bathed in the spotlight,
you were the only one that shined
Come on~
Sorry for waiting !
The managing director couldn't come and I took
the tickets so...
After that, what about some nice Chinese food ?
Huh ? Ooyama ?
Delicious !
This's a lovely place. Do you come here often ?
With the exception of work, it would be my first time
When I don't want people to listen to my conversations, I come here
- Aoyagi-san ? - Yes
I have a favour to ask
Yes
Hang in there !
Erm..
Yeah ! Yeah !
In fact, I...
Yes...
I've fallen in love at first sight with Mariya-san !
But... I know it's a shame but...
I'm awful when it comes to confessing my feeling to others...
That's why I thought you, who is reliable, just like her big sister,
could ask her feeling for me
I can't get her off my head !
Please ! I'm counting on you !
You pink pig !
STUPID PIG !!
- Good morning - Hi
- How was the date ? - You didn't stay overnight ?
Morning coffee for two ?
What's wrong with your foot?...
Hmm ? Smells like compress..
Don't talk nonsense. Quickly change your clothes !
- You'll be late ! Quickly ! - Yes...
I can picture it...
Picture it ?
When it seems that he will take her into a motel, an argument occured
Then, she high-kicked him !
High-kick ? And she would have injured herself ?
Megumi is strong willed
The kick hit him in the temples
She has long legs and its destructive power is severe. The opponent is strucked on the nerves
Did they transport him in an ambulance ? He shouldn't die, he was good looking...
If you spread a careless rumour, you will definetely be kicked !
Mariya-san ? A moment please...
Am I going to be kicked ?
- There's no reason for it, right ? I have something to tell you - Ok
Sorry ! I'm inexcusable !
Hot !
Huh ? Uenohara-san did what?
He said he couldn't get you off his head
For the time being, what about talking with him at a dinner ?
I think you look good together
- I don't want to - Why ?
He's good looking !
Furthermore, he is a company president... what's wrong with him ?
Well... despite the fact that he is a man, he drank a Peach Lady, a sweet cocktail !
Huh ?
Also, on a shrimp with tartare sauce,
he added worcester sauce !
That's understandable !
No, I can't bear those kind of people !
I can't take over it physiologically
But... you were excited about going to the sea
That's because I thought I would go with you
I really really really don't want to !
"Really"...
[July Sales amount ...]
Isn't Misato incredible ? One more and she's in the first four !
Yes ! No matter what, I will go to the hot springs !
Of course, at the top, it's the manager !
That's not true !
Isn't Marie-chan close to the top ?
If you are able to overtake Aoyagi, I will buy you a bag !
No ! I'm fine !
Then, buy me one too !
- Me too - Me too
Me too
I was kidding. Just kidding
I want to go to the hot spring too
Buyers don't get prizes from the director, that would be trade !
Plus, by the way, I'm the senpai...
- He's all talk ! - There he goes, he ran away !
Yoshino, you should make more effort
Don't you want to go to the hot spring ?
I'm able to manage it somehow
Of course not !
After all, for someone who has grown up like a princess, there's no hunger for more
Although the time is coming to an end...
How could you go from there to the 4th position ?
Well, just look
She has an amazing confidence in herself
No way ! That's impossible !
If I lose here, I wouldn't be able to live !
Yo ! Kanako !
Oji-sama !
You came !
For my cute Kanako !
Would you give me all the ones here ?
Thank you ! Kanako is happy !
Really, really ? That's good !
- Morita-kun ! Help me - Yes
What's this ?
Social acquaintance... because she's the daughter of a politician
She knows rich people, well they're "newly rich"
- What's this ? - I'll buy it
Will you be fine ?
I'll take it with this
You shouldn't force yourself
With this money, you could go to a hot spring
It's not about the hot spring
I wan't to win by being in the top four position
I haven't acquired the important position yet
Understood
Thank you for buying
Where's Kanako-chan's place ? Kanako-chan ?
- Kanako-chan !~ - Thank you for coming here !
That's alright, don't mind it !
Then I...
I'll take all the ones on this shelf.
And I'll take all the ones on this shelf !
Thank you !
I love you all !
It's hopeless...
When I think I bought some with my own money...
Ooyama-san, it's terrible !
With her acquaintances, Yoshino-san is making great sales !
Using acquaintances... That's inappropriate !
It's nothing...
Don't panic
Panic ? Why are you saying this ?
- Look - It's true !
Kyaa ! Jun-chan !
Jun-chan ?
Hasegawa Jun-chan?
- It's lovely ! - It's this store's recommendation
Cute !
Then, I'll take it
Sure, thank you !
What are you doing ?
- That's jun-chan !! - Please !
You're at work ! Prepare it immediately !
Go !
-Thank you -Thank you
Thank you
Why did Jun-chan came here ?
An unimportant acquaintance
Do you know her ?
- Amazing ! - Well, I must admit...
The acquaintance of a relative of a friend of an acquaintance of an acquaintance of an acquaintance was Jun-chan's classmate
That's pushing it as far as possible right ?
That's why it was so difficult to ask the favour
- I phoned a hundred times ! - A hundred times !
But she bought only one, didn't she ?
Just look !
It's dangerous ! Please step back !
Miss, please step back !
Didn't you eat once already ?
Yes, and now I'm breaking into the kamameshi ! [Kamameshi: Rice, meat and vegetable dish served in a small pot]
You eat a lot
Your appetite is the source of your energy
Yes
Earth-shattering events happened at Ooyama's place
Haven't you seen this ?
Jun-chan's blog
I have found a veeeery cute bag at the Marukoshi department store. I've bought it It's Jun's favourite
Huh ? That bag ?
Here ! Thank you !
Wait a moment please ! Thank you !
That's sad somehow
I have no intention to say bad things to others but...
Using acquaintances or a blog...
It seems to me, this isn't the right thing
You mean it's not a "wedding" between somebody and a bag ?
Yes
You're right. I agree
It's true that the sales amounts are important but...
I want the customers to choose with their own values
People and bags have their own personnalities, right ?
So, there has to be a bag made for each person
That's the happy wedding between somebody and its bag
It's exactly as what you said
It seems I'm under your influence
Yummy ! This is delicious !
Director !
It's noon break so just sit and rest
Is it alright if I sit there ?
Please !
- Unfortunately, it rained - Yes
- It's okay ? - Yes !
Then, let's eat !
The meals are delicious !
Yes
This one's worth 500 Yen
Don't the sales staff get a 10% discount ?
I'm not a sales staff you know...
Someone buying one meal for 500 Yen
Someone buying a bag they wanted no matter what
Someone buying a large quantity of bags
Don't you think each one of them are important customers ?
It's the customer's liberty to choose how they buy things
If they're satisfied with it, isn't that fine ?
To offer the customer the way to satisfaction
I think that's our job
- Yes - Yes
I'm sorry to lecture you during lunch
But, your serious feelings towards bags sales had touched me deeply
To be complimented by Mr. Director...
Don't add Mr. please
It bothers me since it looks like as if I'm in a Kabakura [Kabakura: Cabaret, night club]
Bye
There's still a food left !
No, this... now...
If you would like it, please
Thank you !
Bye..
Kabakura ?
Like father, like son
Then, I'll announce the result of our Summer Reinforcement campaign

That's the proof that all of you have done your best to become the first
So today again, we're counting on you
Yoroshiku onegaishimasu
That's alright. There will be a next time
Don't cry ! Ah ! Ah ! There will be a next time. Let's try our best ! Ah ! Right ?
What's wrong Aoyagi ?
Are you bitter that your top position was robbed ?
No, that's not it
I 'm a cricket
A cricket ?
Ooyama is an ant
When I let it pass, she worked hard
This is the result
I'm angry against my foolish self...
An ant and a cricket...
As one would expect from the manager ! You're saying nice things !
I'm anticipating the hot spring. I'll rub your back
I will be fine !
Back to work !
I'll do massage too !
You're stubborn !
- Let's have pitch black buns - I won't do this !
Back to work !
