This is the story of a young man whose soul had one day suddenly...
...swapped with that of a gangster boss who silences crying children.
Taking place in a child counseling center, it triggered a series of events...
...that turned him into a hero...
...who saves children who are suffering in the dark.
His name...?
...Don Quixote.
Seems we didn't go back to our normal bodies again, huh?
Yeah, I wonder why.
What're ya sniffin' at?
Uh, could you please change your clothes?
You've been wearing that for days.
Yeah, yer right. Let's go buy clothes in Ginza!
No, no... you don't have to go to Ginza.
My closet is full of clothes.
Yoisho...
Oi oi oi... doncha wear it like that!
-What's wrong with it? But... -Ya shoulda do it this way.
What about you? That's too disgraceful-looking...
-Sto- stop.. Oi oi. -Please try to look presentable.
And please not those vulgar shades again!
But that's how I look!
No no... please put these on instead.
-Ah, fine fine... -Now you look great.
What's this? These lens ain't prescripted.
-Yes, those are stylish glasses. -Then why the hell should I wear em?!
No you see... this happens to be my trademark style.
-Don't joke around, will ya? -Eh?
-The hell yer wearin' it. -Ah, but...
Oi, let's exchange wallets.
Right.
Huh? Wow!
Ya didn't steal from here, did ya?
-Of course not. -Yeah, ya better.
-Here's 100 yen. -What's this for?
It's for some juice I drank. Yoshi.
You're surprisingly a precise person.
Oi, get ready!
Uh... yes!
Certainly what's inside of us are the ones that swapped...
...Maybe, it's because of the timing? -Yeah, maybe.
How in the world can we get back to our original bodies?
I told ya I don't know how.
What is it?
Everyone I see is trying to avoid me.
Well, looking like this, of course I get that a lot.
That's why ya shoulda stop with that smiling face!
It doesn't match, ya know... lessens my powerful image!
Oi! Ya dropped this.
Thank you.
He looks super cool, doesn't he?
Ah, you're right! Really cool!
Like dangerously cool!
Yoshi, can't help it if we're stuck inside these bodies... Let's just do our best today!
Huh? Sabashima-san.
-What? -Didn't you become a little happy just now?
Shuddup~!
Anyway, I'm hoping for your cooperation at the child center today.
Do I really have to go back there?
Well, I'll get in trouble if I don't take care of my cases...
...and if it affects my performance record, the HR department will let me go in the fall.
Doesn't matter if I just skip this day, amirite?
In that case....
I'll announce that I'll withdraw from that president position of your group.
Ya told me that twice already but ya don't have the guts to do it, can ya?
Fine, I'm off.
Arite already! I'll go to yer work!
In return, make sure ya don't do anythin' stupid...
...that'll affect me as head of the Sabashima Group, ya hear?
Yes, I'll do my best.
Hey, by the way...
...is my wife still worried about me?
I just tell her that the President has been calling for me so it's ok.
Oh, that's right... What's that about...?
...when your wife calls out 'Darling.'
Ah, that one...
...sorta like a courtship dance of cranes.
She really loves dancin' with me.
I see what you mean! It's like reprising your first dance, isn't it?
Well... if ya do it badly, she might notice that somethin's wrong.
Arite...
-Show me how ya dance right here. -You mean now?
Arite go!
Yeah, one, two, three, stop.
-Oi shake your butt more! Kyu! Kyu! Kyu! -Yes.
Then, catch Ayumi when she's coming this way
...and stick your chest out some more. -Yes.
-Kyu kyu! Do it right! -Kyu kyu kyu!
Yoshi! Kyu kyu kyu!

::Story 2:: "The hikikomori who does what pleases him"
Remember that among the workers here, you're the newest member...
...so I ask you earnestly to avoid getting into awkward situations. -Arite already.
All the cases that I'm in charge of can be found in the folder.
Eh? Fo... Fol- fol-....
The folder in my computer.
Uh, yeah... I knew that.
Folder, huh?
Take me back! Take me back to my mommy!
Oi, Shun!
That kid looks miserable, huh?
Looks like he certainly doesn't like it here.
Well, he's here under protective custody anyway.
He'll be here for up to 2 months, meanwhile the parents will be prepared...
...in coming up with a healthy nurturing environment to help prevent the abuse again.
Ya let them go back to the parents, are ya sure they're arite by then?
To rehabilitate family ties... that's what we aim for.
We talked about that last week...
Gooood... morrrnin'~.
Hmm... What was that again? Fo... fol-....
-Oi. -Eh?
-What's 'fol?' -'Fol?'
-Fo... Fal? -'Fal?'
Hey, Shirota! Where the heck did you go yesterday?
We had to clean up your mess, you know!
Ah, sorry 'bout that. Uh... is it 'fol?'
As a punishment, we'll appoint you 'Minister of Coffee.'
That's right. Starting tomorrow morning, you'll be the one to prepare our coffee for a month.
What?! Why the hell should I do that... Are ya sh*tting me?!
...I'm... not... myself... today...
Sorry...
Ah, you surprised me, you've been like that recently.
Of course... he's annoyed everyone so many times, hasn't he?
Now now... let's not quarrel this morning please.
Here, have some sponge cake to raise your blood sugar for the whole day.
-Here. -Fol fol fol....
-Here, Shirota-kun. -Fol... yeah, thanks.
Oh, Shirota-kun, you're coming with me.
-To where? -To a case meeting with a parent.
Let's go.
-Hurry up with that sponge cake. -What's this about?
Our counseling session for today is that of a 'hikikomori' case of a 14 year old boy.
-hikikomori?* [*social withdrawal] -Yes.
Ryosuke has been holed up in his room...
...for over a year now. -A year?
Also, for some reason, he had stopped speaking.
He stopped talking?
Hey, will you please be serious?
-Whadda ya mean? -Move your legs back... so annoying.
What do you think caused this?
He was attending a local school after he failed all the middle school exams...
Then, something went wrong.
As a parent, it's really embarrassing for me to ask you this.
Here.
Oh, no... hikikomori cases are surprisingly troublesome.
Nishiwaki-san was also in charge of a similar case... that took a long time, right?
Yes, took me a year before I was able to make him talk to me...
But took me three years to make him come out of his room. Sure needed a lot of patience!
When we were kids, this kind of thing didn't happen right?
What's the family like?
There's the dad who works at Teihou Company, a brother who goes to Meiryuu High School...
Plus the mom, and Ryosuke-kun... They're 4 all in all.
Wow! The father and brother are super elite, then.
Kaede-san, what's your psychological standpoint?
Still, it seems that the major cause of frustration was his failed admission exams.
However, what worries me are his written notes.
What do they mean?
Withdrawing for a long time, communication with such a child is certainly weak.
But this child refuses to speak on purpose.
It seems to be leaning towards obsession, I think.
Hmm... Anyway, someone should try to do a home visit.
...Right, Chief? -Yes, you're right.
Shirota-kun, you go along with Kodama-san.
Eh? (Who's) Kodama?
Why... you got a problem with that?
Oh... it's you.* [*'omae' - impolite term]
What the-- What do you mean by 'omae', huh?!
Now now, relax... Alright, Newbie-san, just go and be careful.
Yep.
We will try to help you with the hikikomori case... ['Sakamoto Family: Shuichi, Yumi, Yuya, Ryosuke']
But first can we also talk with your husband, too?
My husband is too busy with his work...
In order to help Ryosuke-kun, we need the cooperation of the entire family.
I'll try to make him attend the counseling someday.
By the way, here is my son's album.
We suggest you write letters to Ryosuke and gradually build a relationship of trust.
Also we could send over a 'mental friend.'* [*someone who does home visits and counsels troubled children]
'Mental Friend?'
These are student volunteers who registered at the Child Counseling Center.
You can ask a counselor for Ryosuke-kun...
Oi!!
What is it?
-I wanna meet Ryosuke-kun. -Uh, okay.
Ryosuke-kun, hello... I was referred by the Child Counseling Center.
Can I receive even just a little reply from you?
It suddenly seems difficult as I thought it would be.
Onee-san, onee-san... Let me try it please.
'Onee-san?'* [*Big Sis]
Oi, I know what yer feelin,' arite?
Even if I ain't good with studying, it ain't so bad.
I may not be smart either...
...but I live a fine life and there are a lotta guys who respect me.
-Shirota, wait a minute. -Arite? You and me, let's get along.
That's why you just open this door.
Shirota-kun, that's enough.
Open this door! C'mon, open up!
Hey!
'To drive them out... a group challenges another for a fight...'
'Kachikomi*... raid.' [*term for a gang invading the HQ of enemy gangs and drive them out to take over their turf]
Why does this kind of world have to be so savage...?
I knew I'm not cut out for this.
Hello?
Boss, we have some trouble.
What?
Chief! Please, remove Shirota-kun from this case now.
What happened?
He said to the kid, 'Even though you can't study, it's okay...'
and keeps yelling to let him inside the room.
He's just adding to the mess!
Oh no no... Shirota-kun, are you at it again?
The most foolish thing you could do is to hurriedly prod...
...a hikikomori to open up, right?
No, Chief! This case... please let me take care of him.
-Oi, move aside. -What the-...
I'm good at solving problems like collectin' money...
I'm the one who can do this!
I beg of ya! I beg of ya!
Sure.
Ryosuke, I'll just go out and buy food for our dinner, alright?
Hey. Sorry fer bargin in.
I'm Shirota of the Child Counseling Center.
Well now~, I'm surprised.
I saw some pictures of you...
...having the complete set of 'Shinjuku Saba,' eh?
For guys like me... this is sorta like the bible for us.
I wanted to read this so much when I was in middle school but I couldn't read 'kanji' well.
A kid like ya having the entire set...
Ya ain't so bad after all!
No way! I'm not goin!
Oi oi... wait..! I wanna read the manga now!
Hey, ya can't push me out!
Orya! Why ya lil brat!
If you'll excuse me.
-Chief? Chief! -Yes~!
-Chief? Uhm... -Yes, what is it?
Shirota-kun had forced his way in Ryosuke-kun's room.
What?
And he's planning to stay tonight in his room.
'Stay?!'
That idiot... after we told him that it's foolish to hurriedly urge the child...
You mean, Shirota-kun hasn't been listening to anything we say lately.
And lately, he's showing such a bad attitude, too.
Well, let's just see what will happen.
-Are you sure? -Chief!
But at least he was able to enter, right? Since he's there already, it can't be helped.
Ah, it's hot...!
Sh*t~... this story is makin me cry, dammit.
Oi.
Hey you.
Oi!
What's this 'kanji'* mean? [*characters/writing]
This one.
C'mon, I know ya know it.
Ah, 'counter-attack,' huh?
I see, that's what I thought, too.
Listen, you...
Failing exams and studyin' may be hard.. but ya ain't so bad.
'Counter-attack' huh?
Oof, arite.
What the hell happened?* [*He's trying to speak in street slang]
Last night, when Yasu and I were returning home from drinking...
Akiyama of the Ajisawa Group came and tried to pick a fight with us...
It's important for us that you'd become the next president so...
...we tried to put up with what he said and refused to get into trouble.
But Akiyama said somethin' that made fun of you, Boss...
That other guy, what did he say?
He said, 'That baldie can't even read the atmosphere...'
...how could he possibly take over as the President of the Keihin Alliance.* [*Their main Yakuza organization]
Oh...
-Ken, don't say anythin more! -Oh, no!
Forgive me! I won't say anymore...
Yasu was kidnapped by Akiyama and says he'll release him...
But first, he says we gotta accept his condition.
Instead of money, they're askin' to give em half of our turf.
'Half?'
Though Yasu's life is at stake...
...their demand is unreasonable and only wants to provoke us.
Well, Sabashima Group will not take this sitting down.
Darling, so far you've been silent lately... what is our plan?
-Well, such a time like this... -That's right.
-So... at times like this...? -Eh?
Kachikomi?
-Hyodo! -Ken, get ready!
-Let's take back Yasu. -Yes!
Whatta dumbass.
That's right...
That guy doesn't know how to pull back.
Maybe I should call Sabashima-san for help?
No, it's useless, once the raid begins...
...he might come attacking, too.
And if that happens, my body will be exposed to danger.
But then again, I am not this person.
What should I do?
-All set. -Boss.
Yes?
-We're now ready. -Uh, yes.
-Darling. -Yes.
Come here please.
Which one?
Eh?
Uh, then.. I'll get the shorter one.
-Hyodo. -Yes.
Darling, it's time to die together.
Uh, yeah....
'When a fight draws near...'
'...a man will discard everything... to protect his pride.'
We're here.
Boss.
Let's go.
Ah!
-Yasu. -'Nee-san!
Boss!
Sorry to have let this happen... forgive me!
Well, well, seems everyone was worried.
Sabashima-san, did you really properly train this lackey of yours?
What you just said, take it back.
Ah?
Yasu is not a lackey!
He's a part of our family!
-'Nee-san... -Cheer up, Yasu, we'll take you home.
You could...
...if you give in to our demands. -Hold on!
For saying words that hurt his pride...
Sabashima will not let you get away with it!
You got the Boss really upset...
A storm of BLOOD~ shall rain upon ya!
He'll send you all ... To HELLLL~!
...'Storm of blood?' ...'To hell?'
Boss.
Go ahead.
For inconveniencing all of you... I am very sorry!
-Darling?! -Boss?
Kneeling down on the ground ain't gonna help ya!
Enough!
Who's he?
Sabashima...
You didn't go 'pow~ thwak-bangbang~', huh?
Oi... let's go.
I thought he'd be running amuck in here but...
...I didn't expect he'd bow down to us.
Are you ok... Ya-.. uh.. Yasu?
Boss!
Hold on now...
Boss, you surprised us.. I didn't expect you'd bow your head like that.
No, it was, uh... it ain't matter.
-Alright, you're done. -Sorry.
Boss...
I am truly sorry!
No, uh...
I just didn't want ya to be hurt anymore...
I also felt sorry for yer parents if something happened to ya.
Boss, I don't deserve those words!
Boss, I'm sorry, too...
...you knew that a kachikomi raid was an unwise move for us.
We could've gotten caught in that trap by the Ajisawa Group.
Let's reprise our love again?
What?
Oh.
-Ayumi. -Darling.
-Ayumi! -Darling!
I did it!
Eh? There's still more?
Toru... His words are makin' me cry.
Yeah, it ain't over if a man's honor is thrown away...
Amirite?
Arite?
HEY!!
Sh*tty brat.
Ah, meal time?
Grated radish? Looks good.
Hey, Oka-san! ['Mother']... Where's mine?
Child welfare caseworker?
Why did you call for such a person?
Sorry, I have no one else to ask help from.
The neighbors better not find out about this.
Or else, we'll lose our honor.
Hello. I'm Ryosuke's father.
Ah, nice to meet cha. I am Shirota.
My son is such a troubled kid, isn't he?
Please do anything to push some sense into his head.
Ryosuke's exam results ever since elementary had been a disappointment.
We don't want him to embarrass this family anymore so please strictly guide him.
Bring my meal inside my study!
Yes.
Hey, Oto-san*! [*Father] Why doncha tell him yerself?
My husband is a very busy man.
Oka-san... why doesn't everyone eat together?
Everyone eats wherever's convenient for him.
Go ahead.
What?
This is what you owe me for those karaoke expenses.
Wait a sec.
Here... it's an ad for a part-time job.
If you can't afford to pay back your loan, you can earn money by working as a part-timer.
This is really cute.
I know right? So cute!
Sachiko.
Take care of this.
This, too.
You have it?
-Good. -Thanks.
Hey!
Can I take a look inside your bag?
Oh, hello, good evening.
I am Sabashima, a friend of Shirota-kun.
Uh... hello.
Oh, you're here, come on up.
Oka-san, it's fine, he's with me.
Sorry to disturb you.
-Quick, come on up. -Uh, yes.
You broke inside his room all of a sudden...
...why didn't you go through proper procedures?
Don't be so uptight about it... besides, it's better than being outside his room, amirite?
But why are you suddenly interested with this case?
I'm just tryin to do yer job.
What the hell's this.
-Yes? -Why'd ya buy me briefs?
But it's good, feels snug, right?
I hate it... it's like havin' poor ventilation inside my pants.
Oi, did ya bring it?
Yes...
Here, Ayumi's hairpin.
Ah... Ayumi...
Yoshi!
This is how ya do it...
I warn ya, it's a messy room... Come on in...
Careless brat.
Oh, I see what you mean!
You're his mental friend, huh?
There's no freakin' way ya gonna outdo me.
Oh.. I'm Sabashima, a friend of Shirota-san.
If you have any problem, please you can confide in us.
Let's overcome it together!
Hey hey hey! Stop!
You're gonna hurt your hands!
Leave him alone if he likes beating himself up.
Oh, I see!
This is a way of encouraging self-reliance.
Listen you, just go on home now.
You don't wanna worry Ayumi, do ya?
But you see... I can't take it anymore.
What about?
We keep dancing every single night... my hips are starting to hurt.
Are ya tryin to look down on salsa?
I'll go ahead now. Thanks for the hard work~.
Yup~.
Oh no! Guys, wait, look at this.
Huh? Ah, no way! What's this?
"Otaku* Shirota is just reading manga..." [*geek]
-This email is some sort of accusation. -Wait a minute...
If this becomes a big deal, could we be hit with a lawsuit?
So Shirota-kun's just skipping work all along.
Well, then, I'll just take care of it, alright?
Oh, excuse me.
Yes?
I said, I didn't really steal it, didn't you hear me?
I was gonna pay for these clothes but I suddenly had to go to the toilet.
I really wanted to buy them but I was afraid other customers were gonna take them.
So anyway, I just placed them in my bag for awhile.
Excuse me.
I got a call from here, I'm Mizumori, from Keihin Child Counseling Center.
So sorry for the inconvenience.
Are you this kid's guardian?
Yes.
Even after I caught her shoplifting, she still has the guts to give me an attitude.
I'm really sorry.
Well, I'm willing to overlook it if you'll pay for the clothes.
-How much was it? -18,750 yen. ($245)
Huh? What's this?.... Oh no no...
Sorry but... I have no money right now...
Guess I have to turn down your offer...
It can't be helped so...
...go ahead and turn her over to the police please.
-What do you mean? -Please take care of it then.
Mineko-san, wait!
You just sit and wait here.
'Yes?'
I'm Sabashima, the one from yesterday.
I came to see Shirota.
'Come in.'
Shirota-san, good morning.
Sabashima-san!....
Oh.
Huh? Ryosuke-kun?
-Sabashima-san~! -Why the hell ya makin' such a fuss?
That hikikomori finally got out, isn't that what ya wanted?
To come out of his room but not to disappear like this!
What did you do that made him run away from home?
Hell if I know.
You're always at home, what were you doing?
Sorry!
All you did was read manga the whole night...
...you didn't even notice Ryosuke coming out of the house...
...You call yourself a child welfare caseworker? -I'm really sorry.
-Why are ya apologizin'? -Oh, you're right.
Anyway, just hurry and go look for Ryosuke.
Oto-san, what will you be doing today? If you could go with us...
I have a lot of work to do, I don't have time to take care of this matter.
What a great dad ya are!
Please! Kindly look for him.
-Son! -Oh, Onii-san.* [*Elder brother]
Can you help us look for Ryosuke-kun?
I gotta be ready for my final exam.
Oi... oi oi oi...!
OI!!
When a hikikomori goes out, where do ya think...
...he'd go? -No...
...if a person goes out, he couldn't be called a hikikomori.
-But ya gotta wonder where he went. -Yes...
Ah! Ryosuke-kun!
Hey, ya sh*tty brat! Wait up, dammit!
Hey, Ryosuke-kun!
Ryosuke-kun! Wait!
What are you doing, Sabashima-san?
Whadda ya mean what am I doin? It's because of this damn body of yours.
-Oh, I see. -Why do you have to be so weak?
Sorry.
Are you ok?
-Wait, ya bastard! -I'll call him out.
-Wai- wait... -What is it?
Ya go that way and I'll go that a way...
...So that...'bam!' -Oh, I see what you mean.
Yoshi! Wait, ya bastard!
Ryosuke-kun.
Oh, over there.
Ya tryin' to annoy me, huh?
Ya tried to escape while bringing with ya the thing that's important to me, ya bastard.
-Wai- wait... -Give it back, dammit.
Arite~.
Here it is.
Hey! What will I do now?
He.. he spoke! He has spoken!
Aren't you supposed to take me back home?
Why should you care? Yer the one who does whatever damn thing ya like.
Eh? Eh?
Did you mean you just wanted the manga back...
...that's why you went out looking for him? -Yeah, that's right.
I'm really enjoyin it.
Ryosuke-kun!
How can we resolve this?
Hell if I know.
Maybe we should've brought Ryosuke-kun home...
Surely that way, it could help repair family ties.
Listen you...
He and his family will just go back to their ways, is that whatcha want?
No, it's just that...
Forget it, that's why it's great bein his mental friend....
I can now quickly go back to his room and read this last volume.
Go ahead and read it...
...you can read it here for all I care!
Oi oi... This is 'Shinjuku Saba,' arite?
I ain't gonna browse it here like some cheap old manga!
Cryin' out loud.
Do you call yourself a grown-up?
-I have returned! -Where's my son?
-Yeah, I found him. -Where is he?
-Who knows. -What do you mean, 'who knows?'
Oh, yeah, that guy knows where we found him.
Just ask him about it.
Wait a minute. What's with that half-hearted attitude?
Are you going to take responsibility if something happens to Ryosuke?
Why should I be the one? C'mon, outta my way.
-What do you mean, out of your way? -Now now...
We do understand, okay? How Oto-san feels...
...It's just that... -Hey!
To help resolve this hikikomori issue, we need the whole family's help.
...So if I could just ask everyone... -I have no time for that!
Incompetent people like you who cannot see your own shortcomings are not reliable!
-I'm home. -Oh, Onii-san.
Can you help me look for your brother?
But I have a test tomorrow.
If you guys can't do it, come up with something else.
Send more of your people!
Ah, just shut the f*ck up!
It's you guys again, just quit with that ruckus!
Ya all are botherin' me!
I can't get to read the final volume of the manga.
Orah! Quick, get out!
-All of ya, get the hell out! -Wait...
Out!
So annoyin!
Shirota-san! Wait, Shirota-san!
Why even I have to go out?
Hey, open this door!
-This is my house! -Finally, I can read.
At this time, it's best to work something out...
-Hey, see if you can open the windows. -They're all closed.
Geez...
-You can't contact him? -Yes.
Oh, Ryosuke-kun!
Hey, Shirota! Come out! This is our home!
-Don't make me break down this door! -Ryosuke is talking...
This child counseling center that you called... I thought we could rely on them...
Why did you let a guy like that in our home?
But dear, we need their counseling.
No more excuses!
Ryosuke, that's enough! You're annoying the neighbors!
Shut up! It's dad who should keep his mouth shut!
Whatever I say, you oppose it!
Because of that, I refuse to say anything!
Dad! Why should I talk when you don't even listen to me properly?!
And you, too, Aniki.* [*Elder brother]
Just because I'm poor in studying, you look down on me!
I'm not an idiot!
-Ah, so goddam annoying~. -"And you mom.."
...you just do what you're told...
...always so scared, so scared... you guys have to be kidding me!
Ryosuke, please calm down...
You dare say those harsh words after you go around doing whatever pleases you and defying us all this time.
Give me a goddam break!
Your dad, too! He just imposes everything on me and I'm sick of it!
And Yuya... He treats me like an idiot, too.
-Now, now.. -Wait...
In this house, I'm the mom, not your maid!
OI! Shut the hell up!
I'm already at the end so ya all better be quiet, ya hear me?!
Please, open the door.
Open it, please?
What's with him...
Taking over our house and doing whatever pleases him.
I'm so sorry.
Why did we let this thing happen to us?
Hey! Open this door! This is our house!
Hey, open up! This is our house!
-Open it! -Open, open this!
-Hey, open up! -Open this!
-Let us in! -Open this door!
-Open! -Open this!
Please open!
Open it now!
Hey! Hey~!
Hey, wait!
How about you... what do ya think?
Huh?
In that ending... did Toru die?
Or is he still alive?
He's alive, that's what I believe.
Me, too. That's what I think...
...I know he ain't dead!
Ah, by the way, guys... Ya know...
...if you keep raisin' a ruckus like that out here...
...the whole neighborhood will be mad at ya.
Sorry.
So in the end you made everyone in that family bang on the door, huh?
So what about it?
You know what it was...
-Oww~. -Sorry.
-Payment for the treatment, gimme! -Eh?
Anyway, I'm hungry... ya can treat me to some grub!
-Uh, but... -Ah, I'm hungry~, I wanna eat sushi.
-Sushi? -Yeah.
I don't like meats but can you eat sushi?
Of course!
This is our lunch for today.
Okay.
Let us now partake.
I understand.
-Chief! -Yes.
Shirota-kun left the house and they don't know where he went.
What? Where the heck did that guy go?
He's being irresponsible again, huh?
No, that's not what it was about...
What do you mean?
Ryosuke-kun had opened the door of his room and has begun cleaning it.
Maybe he's taking out his things so no one can mess with it anymore.
He probably felt he needs to air out his room after what happened.
Good job.
Oi, Shun.
Here. I want ya to read these books.
It's a story about a strong and sturdy man.
Ah, fer cryin out loud.
What do ya think we should do to go back to our normal bodies?
Oh, well... maybe we could try to have ourselves examined in the hospital.
-Hospital? -Yes.
Ah, maybe yer right.
Maybe they'll give us some 'naika'* for this, huh? [*medicine].
Naika? This is not something like the flu, it's a different matter.
Well, then... Oh, I know, what about 'gaika'* instead. [*foreign money]
No, I think what you mean is 'geka.'* [*surgery]
-Eh? 'Geka?' -A 'gai-' is like this...
Tch! Shut up! Quit nitpickin every lil thing.
-Sorry. -Cryin out loud.
-Yoshi, let's go! -Yes~!
