Out with demons! In with fortune!
Out with demons!
Where do the demons go when they're chased away?
Onigashima?
That sort of place doesn't exist in real life.
The demons with nowhere to go face no choice but turning to crime to live.
Perhaps they're swallowed into the shadows of society.
People chase them out with no sense of responsibility.
If you don't consider what will happen next...
Oy. Hey. Baldie.
It's not just demons that are recklessly chased away these days either.
Chasing out sports players with a high annual salary.
Traditional entertainments being chased out of the world...
Chasing out 6th year university students who haven't found a job!
If we don't make somewhere for them to go...
If we don't consider their second career...
Somehow, I'm not really interested.
Should we go home?
That's Kitsu-san screaming!
What's wrong?!
Since everyone chased the demons out...
It's led to a large number of stray demons!
Now do you see?
This is because people chased them out for their own convenience!
It's dangerous here, come this way...
The public health authorities will do something about it.
What happens to demons that get caught by the authorities?
It's best you don't know.
You're hiding something aren't you?
There's nothing there, really!
You can't go doing that!
Bringing back demons!
Demons?
I'll look after it properly!
That's not the problem!
We can't keep demons here!
Since they were chased out the number of stray demons is increasing.
Wait, does that mean you're keeping other things too?
Sir?
I was wondering if you could keep him here.
Stray pro baseball players?
You can't just go picking them up!
I live in an apartment, so keeping pro baseball players is forbidden.
He can't stay here either!
Excuse me...
Could you keep him here?
A stray Prime Minister chased out of the country by a coup d’état?
You can't go picking him up!
Do you think we could keep them here?
A stray MP chased out of the party!
A stray president chased out of the company!
A stray F1 driver who lost his seat!
Sir, do you think you could keep them here?
A stray cult!
They got chased out wherever they went.
We can't keep them here either!
The public health people will come!
I'm in despair!
I'm in despair of this 'demons out' society that leaves all the burden to fall on timid people like me!
Everyone, please get out at once!
Sir!
Won't you look after them?
Maria's alive because this country gave her a place to go...
You're right.
I was mistaken.
Let's find somewhere to take in all these stray people!
Sorry to tell you, but there's no time to worry about that.
Eh?
Fired!
It seems it wasn't a good idea to have such suspicious characters staying with you.
That's perfectly normal behaviour isn't it?
Doesn't this mean that you're...
A stray teacher?
I'm a stray teacher?
This is no good!
I have to find somewhere to take me in quickly!
We can't keep teachers here.
We're full.
We don't need you.
Go home.
Bye bye.
You're not needed!
So long.
I suppose with a job this easy, it's inevitable I wouldn't find another opening so soon.
Seeking a place to take him in, Nozomu journeyed north.
And at last arrived...
There's a post at the northernmost school.
Really?
Ok, I'll begin the lesson now.
What are you all doing here anyhow?
Somehow or other...
I know it's sudden but we've decided to terminate your position.
Out of nowhere?!
Noo!
I don't want to wind up a stray teacher again!
There's a storm coming!
It's dangerous, get on the boat!
But teacher is still...
We can't wait any longer, get on quickly!
Teacher!
I wonder if he's ok...
Teacher.
Teacher!
There's no way he's alive.
In that fierce storm...
I'm sorry.
Teacher...
Teacher.
I'm sorry.
Teacher!
You're alive!
Teacher. Tail.
What is this, 'Antarctica?!'
I'm glad teacher's ok.
After being chased out of Makuhari Messe it's lucky these people found somewhere to go.
Well then...
It's said that no-one knows so little about the ways of the world as a person of importance but...
This young lady was the most extreme of cases.
'What fine weather. Why don't we take in the autumn colour?'
Declared the young lady suddenly.
Thus, it was decided to stroll in the direction of nearby Meguro.
With her retinue hurriedly making their preparations, she departed at once.
Thinking that she might like to read a book underneath the gingko trees she found that none had been brought.
Looking around there was nothing but a single specialist store.
Upon inquiring there they found that the store sold so-called BL doujinshi.
To the young lady who normally only read very formal texts...
These doujinshi were naturally of great interest.
She raced through volume after volume becoming a prisoner of the books' charm.
Even upon returning to the castle, night after night she would declare that she wished to read BL doujinshi.
Seeking to fulfill the lady's wishes, her servants went directly to the author's booth to buy more.
Since such stimulating literature was not good for one’s health...
The finest assistants were assembled from all over Edo to skillfully revise the books.
However, just because the style was the same that didn't mean that these books were as interesting.
'Where did you acquire these doujinshi?'
'Ah, at Comiket your ladyship.'
'That's no good.'
'For doujinshi it has to be Meguro.'
Ah...
Otonashi-san, you were here too.
It must be nice to be able to speak so fluently.
Ah, excuse me.
I said something lacking in delicacy.
You made Meru Meru cry, didn't you!
Who are you?!
What are you doing all of a sudden?!
I'm Meru Meru's father.
Meru Meru?
Meru's father calls her Meru Meru.
The reason Meru Meru has such a problem with talking...
Is because of a trauma caused by the words of a heartless primary school classmate.
Hey, Otonashi...
Isn't your voice funny?
Funny voice!
She recorded her voice and decided it was strange after all...
Since then she's hardly ever spoken.
Well...
When you hear your own voice on tape, it always sounds strange.
The classmates who called her voice strange in the first place are now...
Under the soil.
But, I know how hard it is to have a complex about your own voice.
You have a good voice though sir.
How great it must be to have a voice like the dubbing vocalists for films!
Just how great!
That's it!
Why is there such a big crowd here?
Some sort of audition apparently.
What's that?
It's an audition for dubbing Meru Meru's voice.
Through influence and wealth...
Seiyuu, actresses, opera singers, all the owners of a beautiful voice in Japan have been assembled here.
I've never heard of such a thing.
Dubbing the voice of a person in real time.
If Meru Meru doesn't like her voice then we have no other option.
I've always bought Meru Meru everything that she wanted, a voice is no different!
That's not how to show your love!
If it's for Meru Meru, I have no problem doing this much.
Does that mean you agreed to this Meru-chan?
By the way, she has a small speaker on her throat!
Ok, will the first person go ahead!
I've become a thousand bits of rubbish.
Nice voice!
Ok, next please!
I'm Otonashi Meru!
Blah, blah, blah...
Hello, I'm Meru.
Nice to meet you. I'm Otonashi Meru
Hey, I'm Meru.
You all have such nice voices!
But none of them quite match her image...
Why don't you all have a go too?
That might be fun!
I'm Meru-chan.
I'm going to Shibuya again next week to buy a bra.
That's not bad!
I'm around that age now...
I'd like to fall in love ~meru
That's good in a normal way isn't it?
Everyone, this scene is a litmus test.
If your voice is audible you lose!
It's hard to cut any of them isn't it.
Now lets take it in turns to try matching our voices!
Ah, that might be worth a try!
Wow, she's my type!
It's ok, don't be scared.
I just want you to wear this wet shirt.
Boobs.
Her voice is all wrong!
Boobs
What about you Kafuka-chan?
Me?
But I can only say commonplace lines.
I love you!
Hmm, well let me see...
'The thing that scares me most is having an anime made.'
'If he's so scared why don't we make an anime to teach him a lesson.'
'Ah, the opening! I'm afraid! I'm afraid!'
'They've added colour and voices! I'm afraid, I'm afraid!'
'What's with him? He's happy isn't he?'
'I'm afraid, I'm afraid.'
'We've been had.'
'You're happy about this anime aren't you?!'
'Tell us what you're really scared of!'
'Right now, I'm afraid of a second season.'
I'm afraid of a third season.
I'm afraid of a drama version.
I'm afraid of the Shogakukan Manga Prize!
I'm afraid of my final hour.
When are you going to see the Prince of Tennis film?
Why are you assuming I'll go?
You're not going?!
I'm not going!
Don't just ask me assuming I'll go!
I was sure you'd be going though...
This really is a problematic situation.
Lately the world is full of things based on assumptions.
They really need to go with a back 3 for the Italy game.
I hope he uses Tsubai at right centre-back for his pace!
Don't talk as though we already qualified from the group stage!
It's rude isn't it?
Speaking under assumptions.
Making plans under the assumption the other person has a mobile!
Films that assume you saw the original!
NHK's attitude assuming that it's perfectly natural for you to pay their license fee!
I'm in despair!
I'm in despair of this assumption society!
I'm sick to death of this modern society where people don't bother asking when they ought to.
Let's go see...
Just how many terrible assumptions there are out there!
Here's one already!
An assumption!
A tentative offer from a firm on the condition of your graduating university.
Even though they don't know if you'll graduate...
They should make their tentative offer after you graduate!
What are you talking about?!
That's why it's tentative isn't it?
How about this one?
That's the same.
Searching for a room under the assumption you'll get into university.
But if you don't do that there'll be no good rooms left.
Even though the university still has formalities to complete...
They assume you'll be attending and demand tuition fees from you!
Then, forced to bear the burden of the growing cost of his son's education...
The father gets a loan on the assumption that he'll live till 80!
If it's assumed that you'll enter a firm or university, then it's also assumed you'll leave!
Changing departments under the assumption you'll be able to resign your current post.
Oh!
Perfect timing Mr. Despair!
I knew you'd love this so I held onto it for you!
Could you stop holding on to things under the assumption I'll buy them!
Ah, I really thought it would suit you too...
What's with those terrible clothes?
Is that how you normally dress?
That's not true!
Assumptions aren't all bad you know.
We're dating under the assumption of marriage.
I'm so happy, with a beautiful woman like this...
That wedding, for her it's...
A wedding under the assumption of a divorce settlement!
You don't have to say that.
Hollywood actresses and Yama**** Moe are the same!
Anyhow, it's best to stop acting under assumptions.
Look at that!
The ends of a man who acted under assumption!
I lived assuming the world would end in 1999.
Assuming the world would end!
That's a sickening display of assumption!
A fight?
A couple's fight under the assumption they'll make up.
Wait!
It's really over this time!
I really love you after all!
They fight on purpose to make it exciting when they make up.
If it works for them...
This is an area with a particularly high number of assumptions!
This next part is too much for you to explain sir.
Instead, I'll explain it.
Manseibashi-kun?
I'm tired of all the assumptions that take place in this town.
The things they sell are all based upon assumptions.
Manga that assumes it'll be made into anime!
Ero-games that assume the characters are above 18!
Low-budget anime DVDs made under the assumption hardcore fans will buy them.
OS software released under the assumption that bugs will be found.
And people buying up things they don't even want under the assumption they'll be able to sell them on!
Even otaku have standards.
I don't exactly understand but...
It all sounds very troublesome.
Anyway, it's tiring here with so many people around.
Let's take a break in this cafe.
What do you want?
How rude!
You have a real problem in your attitude towards customers!
Sir, it's ok.
The customers understand that this is a tsundere café.
Why are you working here?
What about school?!
Don't be so strict...
What's a tsundere café anyhow?
It's a café where the waitress starts out with an aloof attitude, then turns love struck in the end.
I don't entirely understand but...
Men are happier that way.
It's not like I wanted you to come anyway!
Ah...
It's a little difficult to ask but...
Considering her age, that sort of behaviour is a little...
Shh.
She's behaving under the assumption she's seventeen forever.
That person there...
Seventeen!
There are too many assumptions in the world!
Nothing but assumptions!
I found you at last.
The Fist of Despair doesn't require two successors.
I must kill you!
Sudden development!
An enemy appears to target teacher's life!
It's an enemy who appears under the assumption they'll end up friends!
That was fast!
It's a common pattern in shonen manga!
That might be the case but...
Let's go to the batting centre!
Yeah!
What was that Fist of Despair all about?
He's just talking nonsense right?
Well, that's how it goes...
Don't say that!
I'll be appearing again, right?
After all, we're friends.
I think, probably not...
I'm in despair!
Not losing to the anime.
Not losing to the anime, not losing to complaints.
Not losing to lack of popularity, or weak jokes.
With an endless serialisation, unfettered by venom, never dropped.
If there is a hikikomori to the east, going to their home to get them out.
If there is someone tired of being stalked to the west, going and taking the load for them.
If there is a violent person to the south, telling them there's no need for fear.
If there is a copyright suit to the north, telling them not to waste their time.
Shedding tears when I'm alone.
Neither complimented, nor spoken ill of.
I want to become such a person.
