Were you cursed by the cat statue?
Damn!
He's quick!
How did she find out about the curse?!

Someone found out about it?
We told you to keep it a secret!
Misfortune will befall both you and that girl!
I wonder if she'll be all right.
I'll talk to her tomorrow.
I'll go buy some bread.
What's the matter with Kaede?
She's been like that since we went to the amusement park.
Yeah?
Are you plotting something again?
Stop blaming me for everything.
I didn't expect that Junpei-kun would be interested in any girl besides Mizuno.
He's after a twin-tailed kouhai now?
I really love twin-tails myself.
Yeah?
Haruhiko!
It's not that I'm curious or anything,
but tell me what you were just talking about.
Kanako, don't do that.
In situations like this, you need to ask gently.
Now...
you'll tell us, won't you?
Yes, happy to.
I couldn't learn her name even after asking Haruhiko.
There are so many girls with twin-tails.
It's not gonna be easy to find her.
U-Um...
Kousaka-senpai, would you read this?
I found her in no time flat!
Wait, is this...
A letter?
To Mr. Junpei Kousaka
Oh hey, I want to ask you something about yesterday—
She's gone!
What the heck?
Kirishima... Kotone?
It must be a challenge or something.
I'm always looking at you.
I really love you.
If it suits you, please let me be your date.
It's the real thing?!
This is a mistake!
I hate you!
I received a confession and then got dumped!
What the heck?!
Wait a sec!
I-I...
I need to talk to you.
How do you know—
I need to talk to you too.
Come to the temple after school, Kousaka-senpai.
When there's trouble between a boy and a girl, the boy should always concede.
This will be on the finals, so take...
That girl...
What's his relationship with her?
And what's this "curse of the cat statue"?
Why are they all glaring at me?
So anyway, I'm here.
Hey, Master!
Did you make any progress?
No.
I guess he really can understand what we're saying.
Noir!
You know her?
We once lived under the same roof.
Your dear Nyam nee-san's master is very plain.
Noir!
You're as stuck up as ever.
I never thought anyone would ever fall prey to the curse.
When did you get here?!
How do you know about... you know...
About the curse?
She said it out loud!
I can see it.
I'm more spiritually sensitive than others.
I could spread the news and hasten the effect of the curse.
Whether I'll reconsider depends on your reply.
My reply?
Never get close to Kotone-chan ever again.
Don't play dumb with me!
She sent you a love letter!
Huh?! You're the one who gave it to me!
And this!
X month, Y day: I found the man of my destiny.
X month, Y day: I really love his misfortunes. He's the best.
X month, Y day: I learned his name, blood type, and birthday.
I really, really, really, really love Kousaka-senpai.
I love himwdrftgyhujikolp;@:
X month, Y day: we held hands for the first time today.
X month, Y day: Kousaka-senpai forced himself on... I can't write any more than that!
S-S-S-She's fantasizing!
You do love her!
What did you say?!
You love her!
The girl I love is Miz—
Stare...
Never mind.
Playing dumb, are you?
I know your weak point.
That brainless guy with the twin-tail fetish told me everything.
Haruhiko!
W-Wait! Calm down!
Let's talk first!
Let's talk!
No excuses!
I was sure you'd catch me, Master.
No, I wouldn't!
Damn, that girl is crazy!
This is like a quarrel between children.
Let me say it again.
Never get close to Kotone-chan ever again.
Like I said, I'm not dating you!
Huh?
What are you talking about?
Dumb ass!
Another Kirishima Kotone?!
Are you okay, Kousaka-senpai?
This is mean, Akari-chan.
Kotone-chan, it's just...
I thought it strange that every boy I loved withdrew unexpectedly.
You must've done this in the past too.
She must be the fantasizer who gave me the letter.
I just wanted to protect you, Kotone-chan.
And this is the supernatural girl.
Ah ha! They're twins!
This time you've crossed the line!
H-Hey...
Because Dad and Mom got divorced,
and we had to part with Tama too,
I didn't want to lose you, Kotone-chan!
Master...
So she was desperate not to lose her sister.
That makes me just collateral damage.
Forget it!
H-Hey!
Wait up!
We haven't talked about the curse yet!
Huh?! Can't you see the situation?!
Idio—
Misfortune will befall both you and that girl!
The curse...
Because of my sin...
I'm really gonna die.
I heard "splash."
Akari-chan, are you okay?
Akari-chan!
I-I'm sorry...
I'm sorry!
Senpai!
Oh my, Junpei-kun is making a girl cry!
B-a-d b-o-y.
I'm going to put away my fantasy journal for a while.
I'll take you off my list of targets.
I'm sorry for all the trouble I've caused.
Don't worry about it.
You two should get along with each other.
You don't want to make them cry anymore, do you?
If Tama really begs for it.
Oh dear.
You must break the curse on your own, but I'll help you whenever I can.
I-If Kotone-chan says so, I can help too.
Thanks.
She's a good girl.
What? You still like him, Kotone-chan?
What do you see in him?!
It's...
I love men who are plagued with misfortune.
The other sister is highly questionable too.
I'll put away my fantasy journal, but may I continue to stalk you?
No!
See, Akari-chan?
An out-of-body experience...
I was not in that "Delivery Service" movie.
You have the day off,
so stop being lazy and go make a wish come true.
Coming!
If there hadn't been any interference...
No, never.
Junpei-nii-chan, you have visitors.
Visitors?
G-i-r-l-s.
Mizu—?!
Hello, Kousaka-senpai.
You look positively annoyed.
Oh dear, do you see this?
Two really cute girls.
He must be more popular than we thought.
We should celebrate with red bean rice.
They're total strangers to me. Let's go outside!
So, why did you come?
We came about the curse, of course.
Not that I care, but Kotone-chan insisted on it.
Well, thank you.
So, when were you cursed by the cat statue?
How many cats have you helped so far?
I was cursed in September, and I think I've helped about twenty so far.
That's all?!
You'd have finished in no time if you'd helped one cat a day!
What have you been doing?!
Seriously.
Shut up!
I have my own life, and sometimes I don't feel like helping!
Do you want to turn into a cat and die?
Actually, go ahead and die!
Anyway, are you two okay?
I heard the curse hits anyone who learns about it.
We know basic warding spells, so we don't have a problem.
Warding spells?
But we're not powerful enough to help others.
So please be careful, and don't let anyone else learn about this.
Well, I'm glad that it can't harm you two.
D-Don't make fun of me!
Anyway, because Noir's here, why don't we ask her for a request?
Settle down.
They're quick to fight even though they used to live together!
They lived together?
We kept Noir, but...
Our father kept Tama.
Your father?
Tama's current owner is...
I love cabaret!
Your father is that monk?!
What do you mean, "that"?
He is. Any problem?
They must look like their mom.
So, if you have a request, tell me.
Don't have one.
There's nothing worth telling you.
Huh? I can't hear you.
What a pain in the ass.
Fine.
This is pretty boring.
Yeah, more than I expected.
And Tama was really hopeless.
I was there first, but he didn't show any respect.
That really upset me.
She said there was nothing to talk about,
I hated how ignorant he was, with his stupid face.
but now she's going on and on.
Whose stupid face?!
You should act cuter yourself!
Master, you tell her too!
Huh? Me?
Excuse me!
It's not just your face.
You're an idiot through and through.
You tell him too!
What?!
They're both a pain in the ass!
Talk to each other directly!
You used to live together, right?
Then be more friendly to each other!
What do you know about how I was treated?
Back when my masters used to live together...
they were good to me.
One day, a dirty and beaten cat, this guy, wandered into the temple.
Being kind-hearted, my master named him Tama and took him in.
I showed him around town, so he could get used to it.
But as soon as they found out that Tama was a rare male calico cat...
He's a male calico!
The father of the family started caring only about Tama!
Tama, you can have the expensive canned cat food.
Yay!
Tama, you can have an expensive bed.
Yeah...
My cabaret expenses...
Countless amounts of Tama merchandise
...the boom ended immediately after...
My life was turned upside down!
The monk's to blame in this case.
Anyway, he's not favoring one over the other now.
Why don't you make up with each other?
With this happy-go-lucky cat? Never!
I'm glad that we're living apart!
Not only that.
He fell head over heels for Nyam.
What does he see in that old neutered cat?!
Is she in love with Tama?
Well, if Tama comes and apologizes to me, then I guess I'll forgive him.
She's so twisted.
She does want to make up with him.
Why do I have to apologize to her?!
Get a life.
Don't you see how she feels?
You're the last person who should talk like that.
Deep down, she wants to be friends with you, just like in the good old days.
But how can we be friends?
I dunno, but just walk around the block together.
And apologize.
Yes.
All right, we're set.
We're going to the convenience store
Hurry up and apologize!
And...
walk...
where a human...
should walk!
Damn cats!
I wonder what Kousaka-kun and that girl were talking about?
This is the street where we used to walk together.
Back then, I couldn't tell left from right.
Noir showed me the area.
I know I'm being stubborn, but...
I met this cat, Nyam nee-san.
She's really kind.
Nyam nee-san did...
Nyam nee-san said...
Nyam nee-san is...
Grrrrrr...
Dumb Tama!
A dog?!
Dogs?!
Stand back, Noir.
Tama?!
They're still scary!
Help, Master!
He's playing with his cell phone!
I'm sorry, kitties.
Come on, stop!
Mizuno!
Kousaka-kun!
You're taking them for a walk?
Yeah.
You too?
Help, Master!
Master!
T-Take your tongues off Tama!
Thank you, Noir!
I'm totally useless without you around!
Tama...
It's lucky that I ran into her here.
Hey, the other day was a lot of fun.
U-Um...
You go ahead...
Um...
About the girl you were talking to the other day...
A girl?
Something about the "curse of the cat statue."
You heard that?
I overheard it.
Misfortune will befall Mizuno too at this rate!
I need to trick her!
The curse of the cat statue...
I meant the slowness! Yeah! That's it!
Note: As a noun, noroi means "a curse." As an adjective or adverb, it means "slow."
It can only move three millimeters a year!
Even the hair on a Kikuko Doll grows faster, you know?
Oh, that was it?
Success!
So, who's that girl?
You're not strong enough.
I know this might sound strange,
but I was wondering about your relationship with her...
That's why you'll be scum forever.
Wh-What?!
You too. You'd better act cute, or nobody will ever want to marry you.
Look who's talking!
You're just like a girl, always complaining!
I can't hear her...
For the upcoming school trip—
Jeez, shut up already.
I'm trying to talk with Mizuno!
Um, um, Kousaka-kun, what kind of—
That's why even Nyam doesn't like you much.
Poor boy!
Noir!
Tama!
Shut the hell up!
M-Mizuno, that was...
I'm so sorry!
I knew it!
Senpai!
Are you done?
Yeah, I'm done for.
Want some ice cream?
Yeah.
I'm sorry!
Well,
I enjoyed the walk a little.
Oh?
Oh my, they look happy.
It's bothering me!
I need to ask Junpei directly, or it'll keep bothering me!
What's this "twin-tail" deal?
Kaede! What's the matter?
It's nothing. Really.
It doesn't look like nothing.
Kaede!
Well, Kousaka-kun was...
Oh, tickets to an art museum?
I want to give one to Kousaka.
Looking at beauty will make his heart beautiful too.
He must become a man suitable for Kaede!
Yes.
Anyway, it should be around here.
Excuse us.
Yes?
I'm looking for a Kousaka family that lives in this area.
Kousaka?
If you're after Junpei-kun, he's in the park with two twin-tailed girls.
Twin...
I guess he was too forceful with her the other day and made her cry, but I can't blame him.
He's at the age where he's interested in girls.
I'm glad they made up.
Well then...
Tails...
You've got some on your cheek.
Junpei!
Kousaka!
Hey! What are you doing to Senpai?!
Oh my, oh my...
This is wonderful.
I yelled at the cats because I couldn't hear Mizuno.
So that's what it was.
I'm sorry.
It surprised me.
I'm sorry I surprised you.
Where did those two go?
What beautiful sisters!
Let me take care of you, my dears!
No, thank you.
She's suspicious
They're the daughters of the monk at my neighborhood temple.
They're our kouhai.
I see!
I hope things don't become even more complicated.
Oh, my God!
Pineapple!
You shall be my dessert for tonight!

Strawberry tears.
Today's Nyan Koma.
Today's Mew view
Hey, what's this "warding"?
I don't play games all that much, so I don't get it.
This is my guess.
Taima Fighters Shofuku Five!
Taima Red!
Taima Blue!
Taima White!
Taima Black!
Taima Black #2!
We'll end this once and for all, Mecha Cat Statue!
Oh, time's up.
That's a timer!
Anyway, the next Nyan Koi...
Master, I heard that you'll be traveling to Kyoto?
Then please take Masa-nii with you.
Let me visit my home with you.
A four-day school trip starts today!
I'm completely free!
Or I was supposed to be...
Hey, Junpei!
Do you wanna hang around with us?
More people means more fun.
Right, Kaede?
Y-Yeah, let's go, Kousaka-kun.
Next Nyan Koi, 7th nyan-ko, "Please Wait Until Dark♡"
Awright!
I'll use this chance to get closer to Mizuno!
