Inugami-san and Nekoyama-san
5th "Nekoyama-san and Karaoke"
Let's go to karaoke on Sunday!
Can't.
Shot down instantly...
My club is going on a trip that day.
Aww... Then how about next week?
Wait...
They've both been to karaoke before?!
Alive
So we're going to karaoke next week.
I've never done karaoke before...
You don't have to worry.
But...
Being seen doing something for the first time... is embarrassing...
Is it pure talent that she doesn't realize that statement is far more embarrassing?
Then why don't you go with me to try it?
As the alliance of tiny creatures.
Okay?
I thank you.
Think nothing of it.
You use this remote control to select songs.
What kinds of songs do you like?
I like anything.
But rock isn't really my thing.
Actually, anything that uses stringed instruments...
makes me feel depressed just watching...
Because you're a cat?
"Declaration of Absolute Submission"
Oh, this one includes a music video!
Woof, woof, woof, I love cats!
So that's the kind of thing Nezu-san is into...
I'm so lost in you, I can't see anything...
Oh, I know this anime song.
Really?
Then let's sing it together.
O-Okay.
Woof, woof, woof, I love cats...
Looks like this mic's batteries are dead.
Here.
Meow, meow, meow, I love dogs!
Please look only at me!
This isn't so bad when I'm singing with someone.
Ping, ping, ping, it just hit me!
Nezu-san is a good singer, too.
I submit to you!
That's the—
What's the matter?
You were so close...
I'm embarrassed as it is, but if you get that close...
If I do, then what?
It bothers me!
But if you come with Inugami-san,
this kind of thing is bound to happen.
Traitor... Traitor... Woof, woof!
Dogs seem smart, but they're very impulsive.
I can't deny that...
Then...
Want to practice this, too?
H-Huh?
Time's up...
Yes. Yes.
Want to stop here, or extend our time?
We'll take one more hour.
Nezu-san, you idiot!
Well, Nekoyama-san, shall we continue?
You mean continue karaoke, right?
Then go ahead and sing.
What?! It's already playing?!
Run after them! Overtake them!
Don't lose sight of your goal!
Ah, my throat hurts...
You went all-out for that extra hour.
So, how was your first karaoke?
I-It was good.
Thank you very much.
Not at all.
Nezu-san and Nekoyama-san, you went to karaoke together?!
Why didn't you invite me?!
She was super cute.
Let's go after school today!
