Second semester final exam last-minute study session...
in the pool!
What?!
Yay!
Hurray!
Master and Mizuno somehow missed that part.

I'll dash towards the sky.

I'll make all your wishes come true.

Troubles engulfed me at every turn,
itsuno manika nichijou goodbye
and my normal days were gone before I knew it.
anote konote neko tedasuke
I help the cats with this and that.

The triangle whirls around me.

There's no time to waste.

I'd better hurry.

My feelings towards you are spinning in circles.

An unfortunate event

might prove to be a big opportunity!
kimi no egao ga mireta nara kitto
If I get to see your smile,

I'll try to believe everything will be fine.

It's really a wonderful cat power.

May this hand reach you some day.

I'll really make all your wishes come true.
Cat 09!
Girls in the Pool
Kana-chan, if you knew, you should've told me.
It'll be all right if you don't study for a day, right?
Anyway, check this out.
I just bought it.
For today?
Yup.
Here, get changed.
Yeah...
You said it was a study session in the library.
Exams are just around the corner.
You've already changed into swim trunks, so how long are you going to sulk?
Master's trunks are a rental.
Think about it.
Haruhiko planned this.
You need to turn off your mind once in a while.
Yeah!
We're here, so let's enjoy ourselves!
I've been waiting for this!
Yes, I will enjoy, because there are no cats to be found anywhere. By Junpei.
Mizuno's swim suit is a rental too.
Please let me grab them once.
¥1,000,000.
But you'd let Junpei-kun do it for free.
J-Junpei, what do you think of this swimsuit?
M-Mizuno, it looks good on you.
Th-Thank you.
You too.
Oh no!
I-I dropped a contact lens around here.
Oh no!
Watch it! Why'd you do that?!
Because you were just standing there.
Let's get in the water.
But what about your contact?
It's okay.
I didn't even put them on
What's wrong with her?
So dense.
Super ultra dense.
What was that for, you pervert?!
What?!
Wait, why are you here?!
I'm switching gears for a bit before exams!
And why are you here?!
Are you a stalker?!
What?! You—
If you were, you should've told me so.
Please stalk me as much as you want.
I won't!
Don't be so shy.
Huh?
Aren't they the temple's...
More obstacles...
Junpei! Let's swim together!
Yeah!
So, see you later.
Wait a minute!
Kana-chan! Something is coming toward us at ferocious speed!
Hey, guys!
What a coincidence.
You're here too, Senpai!
I see...
Everyone's ignoring me except for Kaede.
There are guys without tattoos here!
The real thing!
Nagi-sama...
Anyway, these really are beautiful boobs.
How unforgivable.
Why you!
Boobs! Nagi-sama!
What was that for?!
You did it first!
Kana-chan! Senpai!
This is quite relaxing.
A great view.
They're both idiots.
You'd better cut it out.
Mizuno!
This feeling...
Was that...
Huh?
Did Kousaka-kun...
As of this moment, I have nothing to regret, I can die happy. By Junpei.
S-Sorry.
Are you all right?
I'm not really all right.
I'm gonna get checked out at the infirmary.
I'll go with you.
No need.
It's nothing serious.
Express delivery of love!
Signature please...
right here.
Ow.
But that feeling...
Yeah, it was real.
Excuse me, young fellow,
would you rub some oil on me?
Trouble approaches right when I have a nosebleed!
It's you again, pig!
Yes, sorry, my sweetheart!
Was that you?
Don't confuse me with voice-overs!
I-I'm sorry!
I heard you hate cats, so I thought you wouldn't listen to me unless I did that.
She tricked me.
You're the family heir who broke the cat statue (abbreviated story),
and who's now Tama's useless apprentice, right?
Damn Tama!
It's all true.
Please help me.
I didn't want to get involved today, but I am dealing with a curse here.
Nagi-sama! Is everything all right, Nagi-sama?!
If anything happens to you, I will take full responsibility!
It won't budge.
Have you tried lowering it first?
This is all your fault, Kanako!
You were too rough, and it's caught in the fabric!
You started it!
Junpei is taking a long time.
Is he really all right?
I'll go check on Junpei.
I'll come too!
I-I can come too!
It's all right.
I'm the one who started all the trouble.
Stay with Senpai.
Maybe that was too obvious.
But I'm only checking up on him.
It should be all right.
Did you get lost?
If you came to find some drinking water, why are you all the way back here?
Junpei?
What are you doing?
Your nosebleed stopped.
Oh, it's a cat?
W-Well, uh... I think she got lost and can't get out.
You were talking with a cat?
I thought you hated cats.
M-M-Me hate cats? W-W-Well, it's...
Crap!
She found out about the curse!
Oh, perhaps...
You can tell how cats feel?
You know, that's what you said at the Culture Festival.
Y-Yeah, you're right!
Don't laugh at me!
Sumiyoshi, I have a favor to ask.
So cold!
Come on, you're almost there!
Keep going!
There you go!
H-Hurry!
My shoulders...
Y-You done yet?
Okay, I'm coming down.
Acting as a stepladder for a cat? That's not like you.
What's the matter?
N-Nothing.
D-Don't go wandering around anymore.
I thought he hated cats, but he has a gentle side.
I'm glad it was an easy request this time.
Good luck with your girlfriend.
It looks like you can really tell how cats feel.
That's not it!
He's snapped.
Come on, don't be embarrassed!
You have a cat-like face, you know.
Prince Kitty!
Seriously, stop it.
Man, being with Junpei is so much fun.
We'll catch a cold out here.
Let's go back in.
Yeah, let's.
Where did they both go?
Kana-chan!
She looks so...
So she has feelings for Kousaka-kun...
Hey, Kaede!
Check this out!
Junpei was talking with a cat.
H-Hey! Stop it!
You can talk with cats?
Isn't that—
Hey!
There you are.
We have more time, so let's play!
Yeah!
Pervert!
Don't stare at me!
I wasn't!
Stare...
K-Kotone-chan?
Kousaka, you can stare at my swimsuit too.
I really mustn't!
Kaede, let's go on the slide!
We're here, so we should enjoy ourselves!
Yeah!
Toss!
Exciting hip-shakes...
I got to help a cat too.
Things are going well today.
Come on, hurry.
Don't procrastinate on your New Year's cards.
Kousaka-kun... grabbed...
Dream on all you want.
You can't ship honey toast using registered mail.
Yes?
H-Hey.
Sumiyoshi?
I brought you the printouts.
I appreciate you bringing me the printouts for the exam,
but why did you come in?
Your mom and Suzu-chan won't be home until late this evening, right?
I'll make you some rice gruel.
Don't bother. I'm not hungry.
Let me!
The exam starts tomorrow.
Go home and study for it.
Besides, why you?
Well, excuse me!
Everyone's busy.
I'll take it.
That's all right.
It's out of the way for both you and Kouta.
You should go home and study for the exam.
Then I'll do it.
You! Go home and play your gal games!
Oh, I guess nobody's free.
Fine, I'll take it to him.
Damn Junpei, catching a cold at the pool... What a pain in the ass!
I came just for you, so why won't you appreciate my effort?
Or did you want Kaede?
Here's some gruel.
Say "ah."
Not really.
H-He's so obvious.
A-A-Anyway! Before you catch my cold, go home and—
I'll get a blanket from your room.
Stay there and be quiet.
Got it?
Hm, I haven't been in Junpei's room in a long time.
A-A-About that doll...
I was only showing it.
I didn't give it away.
It's still at home.
Where the heck is it?
You have a guest.
Yo!
Why are you making a ruckus when you have a fev—
Onee-chan...
He's so cute!
Whose cat are you?
Are you a stray cat?
Onee-chan! What about me?!
He's Chatora from across the street.
He has a request.
I think I'm getting hungry.
You are?
Then I'll make the rice gruel.
Crushed...
You...
Onee-chan...
Why are you here?
Because...
I see!
Nyamsus was looking after him, huh?
Thank you.
I'll use the kitchen.
Y-Yeah.
It's cold outside, so stop it!
Go lie down!
Yes.
Geez.
You're restless even when you have a cold.
I feel like a young wife.
Yeah, right.
You're late!
What took you so long?!
Why do I have to sneak around here?
Let me make something clear. I'm sick now.
That's why I can't take any requests today.
What's your request?
Well...
Would you listen to me?!
It happened yesterday.
I was eating my favorite food, fat-marbled Matsuzaka beef.
You're eating more expensive food than me!
Be afraid of fat cats!
Fat cats!
It's true!
Obesity leads to early death!
Your dear kitties are in danger!
Jesus!
So starting this morning, my owner started giving me 50cc of garbage.
And she said she'd only feed me twice a day!
That's normal.
My owner is trying to make me go on a diet!
Do it.
That's abuse!
Tell my owner to switch my meals back to the usual stuff!
Go on a diet.
Junpei, start with some applesauce.
Why are you sitting outside?!
I told you to go lie down!
I-I-I'm sorry!
Why am I getting scolded? I didn't ask for this!
Here.
Say "ah."
I can eat it myself, i-idiot!
You're blushing!
The rice gruel will be done soon, so go lie down.
Stop eating!
Go on a diet!
I don't need to.
The doctor told me that I'm very healthy.
Stop lying.
Look into my eyes and say that.
First, human food is not good for cats.
I won't listen to you!
What?
I'll eat what I want, when I want.
I have a great idea!
I'll just leave home.
That'll be much better than staying with an owner who doesn't love me.
I'll have my freedom!
Won't listen to me?
Doesn't love you?
You're talking crap.
If nobody cared, no one would be worrying about you!
Everyone's doing it for your own good!
Can't you see that, you idiot?!
Crap...
It's done!
Sheesh, he should've rested like I told him to.
You okay?
He's hot.
Besides, why you?
Hm?
Warm the rice gruel before you eat it.
Exams start tomorrow, so you'd better come to school!!
Kanako.
She went home?
Chatora went home too.
He changed his mind after listening to you.
That was a wake-up call!
Very scary!
He said he'll try the diet.
I see.
At least you need to thank her.
You're no different. You haven't realized that someone loves you.
Why did I do that?
He's in love with Kaede.
But I've been around him much longer, ever since we were kids.
Dumb Junpei! Super dense!
Junpei
Thanks The porridge was really good
Notice it already, dummy.
Junpei didn't make this, did he?
Someone cleaned up after cooking too.
Do you think it was Kotone-san? Or Akari-san?
No, it must be another girl.
How can you tell?
Because...
I'm his mother!
Mother is great!
Anyway, he has even more girls around him.
For my son...
that's pretty good.
Dumb family.
Note: Kamome means "sea gulls."
"Kamomeru" is a made-up word combining "kamome," which conjures up images of summer, and "mail."
It's also a pun on "Come on, mail."
Send kamomeru in the summer.
H-Hey.
Hey.
Um, about yesterday...
Man, you're such a bother.
I thought idiots didn't catch colds.
Who are you calling an idiot?!
I won't let you copy from me.
I'd flunk for sure if I copied your answers!
Who'd flunk?!
Kousaka-kun! Are you feeling better?
Y-Yeah.
Good!
Crap.
Let's hurry, before the exam starts.
Yeah.
Sumiyoshi?
I'm coming, dummy!
It would've been easier if I hadn't realized that I love him.
natsu no kaze kirameku machi ni
In this town where the wind sparkles,

I see you chasing a mirage.

You take a deep breath and keep chasing it.

Strawberry tears.
Today's Nyan Koma.
Chatora Afterwards.
I'm working hard on my diet for my owner.
Being reborn, my days are filled with tough exercises,
metabolic accelerators,
never-ending quests...
And when the battle gets too tough for me,
I have my backup plan.
You haven't changed at all!
Mew view
Go easy on your diet!
By the way, if your cat weighs over 5 kg, you need to be careful,
except for breeds that are naturally large.
Now, the next Nyan Koi...
Thank you for the souvenir from Kyoto.
You're more considerate than you look.
That cat is as rude as its owner.
A useless man like you is still better than nothing,
so get along with my owner.
Y-Yeah.
Next time on Nyan Koi!
Cat 10. What Happened That Night.
Junpei, say "Ahh".
Stop feeding the animals, Kotone-chan.
