"Our Meal was Warm Even After it Cooled"
Ah, sorry to have borrowed so many from you. I wanted to read them all in one go.
There are many parts in this manga that you would forget if you don't read them together.
That's right! You can't tell friend from foe during the middle.
I was totally confused when the character I thought had died 40 volumes ago suddenly reappeared.
Yeah! That's it! I see... So even you can't completely understand it.
Yeah... well...
Fuyuki, which character is your favorite?
Um...which one do you like most, Kana-san?
The Count, without a doubt!
He's my favorite too.
However, his indecisiveness is unacceptable. It kinda irritates me.
That's true.
Let's discuss it in detail when I'm finished reading these, my friend, Fuyuki.
Sure. With pleasure.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
They're pretty heavy, so let me help you.
I can handle it.
Um... be careful.
It's snowing.
You were late today. Did something happen?
No. Nothing.
So you were late for no particular reason? That's pretty rare.
Is the reason for being late that important?
No... Not really...
I was taking care of the hamster, Shuuichi. I am in charge of raising it.
What? That's all? How boring.
Hey, watch it.
Good afternoon.
Did you borrow that manga from Fuyuki?
Huh? Yeah. He must be obessed to have collected every volume of this long-running manga.
Is he an aristocrat, or of royal blood? Do you want to read it too, Chiaki?
Nope.
You're not being honest. Compared to you, Fuyuki is a nice guy.
Why is that?
He addresses me with honorifics. He respects his elders.
I use honorifics too. I just choose whom to use them for.
That's where you're wrong, Akechi-kun. Regardless of the person, he'd use honorifics with a smile on his face.
I'm home!
It's really coming down hard. It's so cold outside.
It's because "coldness is the enemy of women."
I-Is that so?
Yeah, don't let your guard down.
You're making that up.
There'll be so much snow on the ground after tonight.
What should I make for dinner?
Sushi!
That's a bit...
Not much...
Frozen gratin... times two.
We only have a pack of sliced bread and spaghetti noodles.
They're just a bunch of weird ingredients.
What should we do?
Let's put them all together and make nabe.
Eh? Yami nabe?
Note: Yami nabe is when unknown ingredients are poured into the nabe in the dark (yami).
That's not possible. The gas tank is empty, and we don't have another one.
Ahh... we used them all up?
I guess we have to go shopping.
It's really coming down hard. It's so cold outside.
Maybe we should try to do something with what we have.
You're right. That should be fine.
I will help you, Haruka-neesama.
Well then, let's start preparing.
I must read my manga. Just call me when the food is ready.
Who do you think you are?
I'm completely full and satisfied. Not a millimeter of space left.
You're right. We used up most of the ingredients that we had left.
I definitely have to do grocery shopping tomorrow.
In that case, get some of these too. There is only one left.
Can you go to the cleaners while you're at it? I forgot to get my coat.
You took it there, so you have to go get it.
What?!
Either way, let's leave it for tomorrow since it's still snowing.
That's right! Tomorrow! Tomorrow! There is no need to go outside on a day like this.
But our neighbor just went off to work. I passed by him on the elevator.
And what kind of job is it?
Should you really pay attention to that? You'd better go get your coat at the cleaners.
I wonder how much snow is on the ground now.
Shall we go and have a look?
Wow! It's really building up! It's totally white! It's totally white!
It's true... it's pretty.
It's cold, so shall we go back inside?
Okay.
It's because "coldness is the enemy of women."
Eh?
Preparations done! Let's go outside and play!
Eh? Are we seriously going?
Stop moving so slowly. The right way to spend a snowy day is to have fun running around the yard.
Do you plan on rolling up in the kotatsu after that, you idiot?
Yay!
That's because you were spaced out.
Did you get into it now? The pitcher Kana, set to throw her first pitch of the game.
Oh, now you've done it, Haruka! Damn!
Geez, that hurt. Huh?
Get up, Chiaki. You're not the type that would give up in something like this.
Don't be ridiculous! I'll definitely make you pay for this!
All right! It's done!
Isn't this guy a bit weird?
A little.
Now, allow me to teach you what winter sports are all about!
Do you really know what you're doing?
Don't be ridden by the board. Ride on the board!
That doesn't make any sense.
Let's head back now. It's cold.
Very well! It's almost time, too.
What are you planning?
You'll know once we get back.
I think this is a little too hot.
Which part of this is "about time?"
Shpanks for waiting.
Note: Kana used "omatahe" instead of "omatase."
What the hell is shpanks, you idiot?
The brats who don't understand the elegance should stay out of it.
Why you...
How's this? This is something that can only be experienced on a snowy day, in addition to...
this feeling of freedom!
It's a bit too cool.
I put too much in.
Then heat it up.
Once you're in it like this, it doesn't seem like our bath.
It's pretty good, isn't it?
Shut up and get out already.
Nooo way.
Go away, you!
Don't say something so cold.
Let's go and play after a bit of rest.
Haven't you had enough?
No way! The second part of this snowy night is yet to come.
It's kind of relaxing, isn't it? Even though it's snowing outside, we're sitting under the kotatsu, eating sweets.
Huh? A power outage?
Haruka-neesama.
No need to worry. It'll be fixed soon.
C-Cold...
How does it get warmer by saying it's cold?
I'm saying it's cold because it's cold. What's wrong with that?
As I said...
Now, now, a power outage like this will be fixed soon.
I hope my body holds out until then. This is bad. I'm starting to feel sleepy.
Food supplies are low, and we have no way to communicate with others, either. Have we no choice but to die here?
Chiaki, Chiaki. Hurry up and say "that" phrase.
Eh? Oh. Is there only 100 million yen?
That's not it! What kind of scene is that?! Hang on, I did think it could be real.
It's cold, so could you shut up for a minute?
Boring!
Where are you going?
The bath. It should still be warm, so I'll go warm myself up. Bathing in darkness shouldn't be that bad, right?
It's completely cold, plus the window was open!
Who opened that window?!
It was you.
That's right. It was me. Damn it!
Did you close it?
I didn't even have the chance to.
C-Cold!
Hurry up and put your clothes on! You'll catch a cold.
Haruka-neesama?
I'm going to close the window.
Hey... That feels gross. Stop rubbing me.
To think that this would be the only way to warm up...
Stop whining. At least have an inch of thankfulness that we had one left.
I'm hungry. I want to eat something.
There is something to eat...
Is there? I'll eat it! I want to eat it! Why don't we just eat it?!
Is it okay for it to be frozen?
Oh, that?! We'll end up freezing inside out if we eat that. If only we could heat up a bit of water.
That's impossible. We don't have any gas left.
Damn it...
If we mix flour with some water and eggs, wouldn't it taste like pancakes?!
You want me to make some?
No... It's fine...
Th-This ain't funny. The power still isn't back?!
It sure is taking a long time.
Normally, you wouldn't even notice it, but it's just so inconvenient when there's no electricity.
Having a power outage on a snowy day like this is the proof that they're slacking off! Bring me the person who's responsible!
What would you do after calling him?
I'll scold him so that something like this would never happen again!
That's fine. Go ahead and do so.
Want to be a Teru Teru Bouzu?
Note: Refer to episode 5 of the first season to find out what she's talking about.
Are you trying to kill me?!
Well, nights like this are fine from time to time.
As long as they don't get cold.
I wonder what everyone is doing.
Oh, Fuyuki-kun. His father isn't home. I wonder if he's all right by himself.
Should we go and check on him?
Are you that worried?
He should be well prepared.
Let's go and check.
Okay.
Fuyuki, you there? Hey, Fuyuki.
Maybe he's asleep.
Isn't it too early for children to go to sleep?
But he's an elementary school student.
Yeah, but even if that's true... Ah! Haruka!
Maybe something strange has happened?!
Something strange?
Hey, hey. He might be already be asleep.
No, he's still up.
Chiaki. That's enough. Let's head back.
Coming...
Sorry that I took so long. Ah... What's the matter, everyone?
It's nothing. I thought as fellow neighbors, we should help each other out.
Do you have everything you need, Fuyuki-kun?
No, I'm all right.
It took you a while to answer, so I thought you were dead.
Enough with the tasteless jokes. We were wondering if you were doing all right by yourself.
Why didn't you open the door faster if you were here?
I apologize. I was thinking about going to bed.
Dressed like that?
Well, I was planning to go and change.
Fuyuki. Can we borrow your gas tank for our portable cooking stove?
Sure. Please wait for a moment.
Here it is. Please use it.
Thanks! Oh? Even hand warmers. You're pretty thoughtful, aren't you?
Well, it is really cold.
You're such a nice guy.
Thanks.
That's right, Fuyuki-kun. Won't you come to our place and play?
That sounds good. We can light the stove up now, too. Come on!
Um... I'd only cause you trouble.
Why? You don't have to hold back.
Let's spend the night talking about something!
Why don't you just come?
But...
You're bored anyways. Just come!
Um... I don't know when my father will be back... If he returns and sees me missing in this kind of snowfall, he'd worry about me, so...
I see. Then I guess it can't be helped...
Even though he wants to come.
Later!
Good night.
He's a bright guy.
He seems to be all right by himself.
That idiot...
Just as I thought.
W-What?
Come!
W-Why? W-Wait a-!
I said let go!
Um... what happened all of a sudden?
Do you not want to come to our place that badly?
No. That's not it. It's just my father that would worry-
Weren't you just making up excuses to turn us down while you were talking?
That's not true.
If you'd like to come, then just come. Why can't you just say anything honestly?
That's not it. I'm not...
Looking at you irritates me.
If that's the case, then you should just leave me alone.
Huh?! If there's something you want to say, then say it clearly!
Why must you...
What? Say it!
Why do I have to listen to you talk about this?!
Ouch! H-Hold it! Take this!
Take this!
Um... W-Wait, Kana-san?!
Huh? What are you doing?
Let your friends join!
Here we go, you two!
We won't hold back, you know!
Why do I have to team up with this guy?
A-Are you all right?
Instead of worrying about others, hit them back!
There!
At this rate, we can't fire back...
It's obviously unfair considering the team groupings. Right, I'll be the one who throws. You make the balls.
Got it!
Take that!
Hey! Are you still not ready?
My hands are going numb.
Ohh~! Here I come!
Hey, retreat!
Why?!
Let's go!
It feels much warmer when there's a flame.
Thank you, the power of civilization!
This is all thanks to Fuyuki-kun.
It's nothing. It's about time I head back.
Oh, since you already came here, why don't you spend the night?
Eh?
In that case...
It feels pretty warm like this.
Yeah. This is something that we wouldn't do if it wasn't for the blackout.
We should've done this from the start.
So warm...
Did you say something?
Eh? No, nothing.
Good morning, Haruka-neesama.
Morning. Looks like the power is back up.
I wonder where Fuyuki-kun went.
Huh?
Hmm... That guy.
Hey. Fuyuki, you there? Morning! Fuyuki!
Huh?
What is that guy doing?
Oh, that Fuyuki was shovelling the snow. Admirable. Admirable indeed.
That must be the kind of guy that you are...
A cat's paw feels so good when you touch it.
I've heard that the paw's softness depends on the environment that it's living in.
The paws of the cats that live outside are much rougher, since they walk on rougher ground, whereas the paws of the cats that live inside the house are really soft.
All right.
I'm going to go around feeling and comparing paws!
