What does "Time-Sale" mean to you?
Time-sale is....
[ First TEN bags of Potato 20 Yen each, in one bag, one per person ]
...a phrase from a demon, that enchants and lures women to the shop window,
...and crushes the thing referred to as "woman's pride".
There is no exclusion for the standard cute girls either.
All women,
...are living things who cannot escape from coming to the Time-Sale.
So this is the Tamiya family.
What did you bring and eco-bag for?
Of course, it's for the Time Sa...
And? Not like you will get something...
Yes. Time Sale for women is like a battleground. Today too, a fight is about to start.
Switch Girl!! - Episode Two
Nika, Rika! Go for it!
Roger!
Mum! Sis!
Rika, no matter what, get the potatoes!
Only one left!
I've done it!
Mum, Sis! I took it!
Mum, the eggs are cheap too, only 98Yen!
Don't be ridiculous, eggs are 9 Yen cheaper in the other shop.
Mackerel is cheap, this is the last one so it's discounted!
Let me think, if it's 158 Yen for two slices, then it's 79 Yen for one. Cheap! Put it in the basket.
Hey, mister!
Yes?
Didn't that scan for 98 Yen?
On the label it said 78 Yen!
You read it too!
Correct it please!
Just what I need!
What are you doing here?
I came to buy lunch.
Lunch?
But why do I have to meet him? If I am with him I could be seen by mum and sis...
Too late!
Nika, who is this boy?
Don't tell me...boyfriend?
Nika's sweetheart! Is he? Must be!
Stop it! Both of you!
You are embarrassing him!
Him..?
Him...you mean boyfriend right?
What's your name?
Kamiyama Arata.
So when it's the two of them they say "Arata, Nika".
Sister then blushes...
Listen, Arata! Why don't you come and eat lunch with us today?
Why would you say that?
But maybe your mother has already made preparations.
How foolish! He has no mother!
But probably he has tasks to do, so don't cause trouble being pushy.
Right?
Kamiyama Arata?
[ Refuse it! ]
Read my mind...
I will join you!
...no, he didn't!
Hey, Arata...
Let them be alone!
Damn him, what is he planning?
Don't tell me he wants my secrets! Does he want to control me?
After seizing all of the goods I will have to take an illegal loan for easy money, and suddenly loan sharks will appear,
...who will threaten and take me at night, to start my life talking to representatives as a hostess called Akemi, next is...
There's no way that would happen!
I don't have the tiniest interest in your lifestyle, and I don't intend to use you either.
Shoot! I said it all out loud!
I genuinely,
...just longed for some home-cooked meal after so long.
Home-cooked food after so long?
It's a little bit messy, but make yourself comfortable.
Why right into my room?
I will call you when lunch is done.
What does her face show such satisfaction for?!
I'm exposed!!!
My room exposed feels like I'm seen naked!
For example, like in the folktale* of the crane, where the wife was exposed whilst weaving. [*note: Tsuru no Ongaeshi - The returned favour of the crane ]
But this is still beyond expectations.
Why are there so many tissues around the bin?
Shut up. I missed the bin whilst throwing.
What's with this mug? All stale inside.
I drank from it. It's only barley tea dried up inside.
What's this?
It's to clean your pores, I used it yesterday. It removed a lot so I wanted to show it to my sister.
Whose hair is this? Your cut is not short.
Don't touch that!
Your taste isn't lady-like at all.
Isn't it fine! I like them and I'm not doing anything bad.
It's fine.
Suits you well.
What's with him, suddenly being nice.
Is his real intention...don't tell me!
Sexual? That's what he wants!
He says he is not interested in my lifestyle, but in real he is!
He is already sitting on the bed!
Already? Straight into it?
Won't you sit down?
What's with that?
Do you want me to guess it, Kamiyama Arata?
No, no no. I wasn't going to...
...my family is here too, and I'm not such an easy girl.
Moreover, I am still a...
...umm...vir...
What are you saying?
There is nowhere to sit in this room!
Even so, he is indeed very handsome without his glasses!
Can I ask something?
What?
Why are you hiding your real face?
Probably the same as you.
Same?
It would change behaviour.
If I wear my glasses, no one will come to me,
...no one would mind me...
...it's more comfortable that way.
So keep it a secret, OK?
I wonder if that's also because he hates women...
Could perhaps be related to not having a mother?
So he dislikes me too?
But I am not very girly so maybe it's fine.
Not girly at all...
Oops, my heart is beating fast!
He is certainly bad mannered, but so handsome that could cause a nosebleed!
Oh dear, that neck is sexy~~
The back of your neck is too sexy, Kamiyama Arata!
Moreover, what's this good smell?
Smells so good, I can't stand it!
Whatever it is I want it~~
Hey! Stop it now!
Shoot, I lost my self control!
I think I should go.
No, wait a second!
Nika, lunch is rea...!
Oh dear, did I interrupt something?
Nika and Arata were being kinky?
No, this is just...
Even though we are around, so daring!
So Nika likes the top!
No, no!
Mum was always on top too!
NOO!
It's fine, carry on~~
No, we are not!!!
Get off already!
OK!
Here, it's from Mum. Red rice, for whenever.
Food was delicious.
See you.
I will walk you to the lift.
Thanks for today.
Your place is loud, but it's entertaining.
Is that so?
I'm sure it's just noisy.
I see, when he goes home he is alone...
Bye.
If eating alone is lonely...
...nothing.
...then I will call you.
Next time, it's my turn.
At that time...
...my mind went completely blank.
When he arrived home with his composed face,
...I wonder what he was thinking.
Since my mind was fixed on that, I couldn't sleep much that night.
What's up, you keep sighing.
I didn't sleep much...
Don't tell me, Nika, that you are interested in him?
Of course not!
But things seem to be complicated for him.
I am not sure what's right to do.
It's the first time like this.
Do what you think right.
Just go for it as you normally would.
But it's bad if I get declined!
I'm going to the toilet.
What's this for?
Eating bread every day is not nutritious.
So let's swap.
That reminds me, why are you always eating on the rooftop?
Eating in the classroom is fine, you can make friends.
What did you come here for?
You came to tell me that?
Then go away.
I just...
I don't need friends.
I don't feel like being with the class either.
Mind your own business.
What's with that tone?
Weren't you nice yesterday?
That was yesterday.
You are annoying, so leave me alone.
He pisses me off!
Ouch!
What are you doing?
That jerk, he was all nice yesterday,
...but feels like a totally different person today.
What's with that "next time it's my turn"?
I'm such an idiot for having worried about him!
My loss.
Nika, Nika, Nika!
What's up?
There is a mixer arranged for today and I want you to come!
Mixer?
Satochi is so ecstatic now that she has been invited by someone she fancies, that her mind has gone blank.
Satochi you had someone you like?
Just since recently, which actually means this morning.
This morning?
Yes, thing is...
I was running late this morning so I took my toast to eat and ran towards the station.
But doing so was more difficult than I anticipated,
...and the smell of margarine was running up my nose,
...so my senses went for a second or so.
And then~
I'm sorry, are you alright?
Yes!
Here, your toast.
-Thank you!
-Let's do a mixer!
That quick?
Is that sincere friendliness?
And then what happened?
And then...
Is it fine to go with me?
Of course!
Bring Tamiya Nika from your school too! Right, I'm off!
And with that I was asked to invite you too.
Satochi is serious about this opportunity so let's support her!
Right, Azu?
Nipa~~
But...
Like I care about him!
Then I co-operate!
Also I was thinking of getting a boyfriend lately!
Really?
Then let me show you something!
So annoying.
Shut up already.
Hey, Arata,
...what do you think was Nika's nickname in primary school?
Oonita.
Oonita?
By Oonita you mean the one from that match?
Yes, the one that is covered in blood and screams "Fire!".
Nika was much fatter back then so she looked like a pro wrestler.
She was easily wound up, so boys always teased her.
She was teased by the boy she liked too,
...but that boy ended up going out with the cutest girl in the class.
That was a shock to her, so she decided to change.
Her face was originally pretty though, so by middle school she was popular with those who did not know her previously.
That made her really happy.
But her personality was still rough, and because of that contrast she was immediately dumped.
When she entered high school, she completely hid her "OFF-mode",
...and is called charismatic now.
However, her insides did not change sufficiently, so she is still the same.
Moreover, she still...
Still,
...what?
Nothing.
What's with that?
Such a hottie! You can tell from the back right?!
A mixer with Miss Nika?
I'm so jealous...
But I thought mixers are next to impossible unless you are in private university,
...or, Oiki, have you been to one before?
No, I haven't.
I will treat you to a Dr.Pepper.
A mixer?
You guys, go to Shibuya and pick up some first class hotties.
We are doing a mixer too!
Why so sudden?
Whilst Tamiya is hanging out with some average looking guy, we will appear with our first-class men.
When she sees our men, she will surely turn green with jealousy.
But picking up men so su...
Never mind, hurry up and go!
OK!
Come to the passenger boat at 8pm!
Yes!
Thank you~~
Nika, isn't he cool?
Yea~~
~I guess.
Me again!
Sorry Satochi,
...but he is soo lame.
No one who holds the microphone like that could be good at singing!
And why did he unbutton his shirt just now?
Such an old way of sexual attraction!
Most importantly, his way of sitting is too wide, like a frog upside down!
What a show off! Just a show off.
OK, thank you!
So cool!
Thank what?
But even him can fall for someone...
...right, Satochin?
Hey Nika, why don't you sing?
Eww, his perfume stinks!
Right, I will pick a ballad, and you can sing it for me.
Why, he is too close! What's with this bloke?
Oh no, Satochi has sunk into depression!
I know!
I will ask this show off about his type, he will say "Like Satochi"!!!
Naoi, what type of girls do you like?
Like Nika!
Oh shoot!
Did you know, Satochi is super popular at school!
She is bright and kind so she very liked by the boys!!
Right? There is such a buzz about her!
I'm not interested in things like that.
Oh no, she is about to disappear!
But really, you'd go out with...
...Nika of course!
Oh no, there she goes!
Oh, this is so tiring!
Tamiya Nika from Syuuei is surprisingly eager when it comes to you Naoi,
Ya, I guess.
Even just now as you were full on your sex appeal!
There was no opposition at all.
The next one is the 50th, so I thought I should commemorate it by picking up a higher up girl,
...but Tamiya Nika is easy too.
But you are so awesome, making her come so suddenly.
You should at least be called "Shibuya's Tiger"!
For real!
What's with them?
You can have the remaining three.
Their looks are poor, but they look easy to do.
Ta!
Cold!
What are you doing?
I see, so 49 girls already,
have fallen victim to that pathetic lower half of your body!
Don't mess with me!
What's with "they look easy to do"?
Don't be ridiculous!
They just want to fall in love.
Even if just a little,
...they do their best to show that.
Does that look like eager to you?
Don't group us with the likes of you who just rush into things!
Do you know what will happen if my friend gets hurt?
What could?
I will do all I can to expose your wickedness to every girl in town!
Don't underestimate a girl's network.
Also,
What else?
Please take care of the bill!
No one seems to be coming~!!!
[ Tamiya ]
What's with those idiots...
They piss me off! What "easy to do"?
Next time!
You are loud talking to yourself.
Were you here?
Judging by your look, the mixer misfired.
None of your business.
You don't have to try so hard,
...there might be someone who likes you just the way you are.
Why...
...say that?
See you,
...Oonita!
Why does he know that awful nickname?
What's with that, after being so rude at lunchtime!
Saying things like that...
Just the way I am?
He should have just handed it directly.
What a random guy!
[ It was delicious - Kamiyama ]
When drinking something...
...it's more delicious without a cup.
When eating Ramen...
...eat from the pan.
Under the bed...
...unknown items are.
When the shampoo is almost gone...
...you follow this procedure.
When your skin is dry,
...you transport oil from your T-zone.
When you take care of your business outside...
...you deodorise your own butt.
During shopping,
...you reserve items at the moment of price reduction.
When sampling food,
...you escape without buying it by pretending to call your parents.
