Let's eat!
Oh, Principal! Hi!
Hi!
Hello.
You eat in the cafeteria, too?
Yes, it's very important that I keep in touch with all of you.
Is the food good?
Yeah! The Chinese Fair is great!
The lunch ladies are experimenting with the menu to make sure none of you ever get bored.
Oh, you're all eating together?
Principal!
I don't see you in the cafeteria that often.
You usually bring your lunch.
Well, the cafeteria's menu is healthy, and it's nice to mingle with the students from time to time.
Don't worry, Principal. You can sit with us.
Go ahead.

negoto de me ga sameta
I woke up to the sound of sleep-talking
One, two, three, four!
Two, two, three, four!
Three, two, three, four!
Four, two, three, four!
This really clears my head.
It wakes you up, doesn't it?
Yeah, I pulled another all-nighter so it's a great change of pace.
Food always tastes best after you've worked out.
It's about time.
All right, let's head back inside.
Hiro!
You're all so mean. What are you eating without me?
We're not eating anything, we're exercising.
Come on, back to your room.
Really?
Really.
Get up and get ready for school.
Wow, I thought Hiro had gotten up early for once.
Is she a sleepwalker?
Will she be okay?
May 13th ~ May 14th "Yuno Crab"
What, you haven't had the crab fried rice yet?
Chinese Fair
The crab fried rice from the Chinese Fair special menu!
It's packed full of crab!
And it comes with chicken soup! All for only 400 yen!
What else is on the menu?
Well, there's tenshinhan, pepper steak, prawns in chili sauce, and dandan noodles.
We're trying to try everything on the menu while they have it!
Wow, Nori, that sounds fun.
The crab fried rice has to be the best part.
I can tell how good it is just hearing her talk about it!
Sae, Hiro, how about you?
Yeah, we tried it.
The day before yesterday, right?
Yeah. There were a lot of other people eating it as well.
Yeah, it seemed pretty popular.
Did they have to buy more woks?
I don't know about that.
They probably needed more crab spoons, too.
Did Miya give her that idea?
Now I really wanna try some.
It's only until tomorrow.
Really? I'm glad you told me about it today.
Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Su
Free
Here we are!
That's a close call!
I wanna eat it! I really wanna eat it!
Doggie.
Doggie!?
Sallying forth, to the cafeteria!
Tadah!
Miya, you're going to school.
Hey, what kind of crab do they make crab fried rice out of?
What kind of crab?
Usually they use king crab or snow crab, right?
But those have gotten pretty expensive, so maybe Hanasaki crab?
Horsehair crab, spider crab!
Heikegani, river crab...
Nah, couldn't be.
Subesubemanjugani!
Slippery!?
Good morning, class.
Have you gone to the cafeteria's Chinese Fair?
I had some crab fried rice.
It was incredibly tasty.
Just adding a little crab made it taste so much like the sea.
... oh!
Let's work on flats of sea life today, okay?
Wow, she just decided on that...
What are you going to draw, Yunocchi?
A scene full of starfishes, like the night sky.
Miyako's starfish facts!
Starfirsh are called "starfish" or "sea stars" in English.
That sounds so wonderful!
Also, they feed on the carcasses of dead fish.
They do this by shoving their stomach outside of their body, wrapping it around the carcass, and digesting.
Yunocchi?
Maybe I won't draw so many...
Anyway, crab fried rice is awesome.
It's hard enough making normal fried rice.
It takes eight months to grow the rice.
Then to fry it up nice and thick, you need an egg a chicken laid.
Then you need oil and leek.
I wonder who ever thought of mixing in that crabby crabby critter they fished up from the bottom of the sea...
Back to work.
Miya...
All right, class is over.
If you're not done yet, bring your work to me during lunch.
Sorry, Miya. I still have work to do, go have lunch with someone else.
What are you saying!? I'll never leave you behind!
Let's go after school.
Right!
What are they talking about?
I'm finally done. Cleanup took a while.
Here, Yunocchi, I bought you this!
margarine roll puffy and tasty
A margerine roll!
Thanks.
Here, Yuno, you can snack on this.
There's Mr. Mashiko.
Thanks.
Mr. Mashiko, you're always too on time.
All right, let's start the class.
Run, Yunocchi, run!
I'm so hungry!
Sorry, we're sold out.
It's the last day, so we didn't order as many ingredients.
It's over... It's all over...
Miya... Miya, I've done something I can't take back...
What are you talking about?
Sae! Hiro!
Oh!
Oh, you didn't get to try the crab fried rice?
Yeah... it was my fault...
I hope they have another Chinese Fair...
No problem!
Why don't we do it at my place tonight?
You don't have to worry about me!
We didn't mean to drag you into this!
Sae, are they worried about me?
I don't think...
Here, it's done. I only had imitation crab, though.
This is great!
So tasty...
Your food and the school's are like two bananas in a pod!
Nori, I think you were going for "two peas in a pod"...
Or "two bananas in a bunch"...
Yeah, those!
Seconds please!
You seem really satisfied.
It's so good!
Your cooking is magical!
You're a genius!
Hiro's satisfied with her compliments, too.
That was great. Thanks a lot, Hiro.
Sorry it wasn't real crab.
Don't worry about it.
By the way, Nazuna, did you try the cafeteria's crab fried rice?
After you all talked about it, I went and had some today.
Why didn't you tell me that earlier!?
Sorry...
I wanted to try yours, too.
It was great.
Nazuna...
It was fun eating with everyone, too.
Tell me whatever you want, I'll cook it!
Hiro's curry is just as good as her fried rice. Don't you want some?
Yeah!
Okay, you want curry, right?
Yay!
Hey...
Tomorrow I have gym and math...
There were a lot of wonderful meals today.
Crab, crab.
I wonder if she's graded my drawing today yet?
I tried really hard, but I still barely made the deadline.

"Eggplants Really Are Great"
Miss Yoshinoya, I brought the bottles and cans from the storage room.
Good. I brought enough eggplants for everyone.
Bottle
Can
Eggplant
String
Hat
We've already got the other materials here.
So we've got all the motifs.
This is a pretty eccentric selection for sketching.
Really?
You're the one that thought of it, right?
Yeah!
Is it supposed to mean something?
Of course!
What? The point is to provide a variety of different shapes for everyone to draw--
Good morning.
Oh, the arts department is holding a schoolwide concours today?
Art is, by nature, not a matter of being able to choose which is superior.
Individuality is vital.
Principal...
Try not to put too much pressure on the students while judging them.
You're right.
I think there is deep meaning in one's will to improve being sparked by seeing another student's work being commented on, and thus looking at one's one work and motif from a different angle.
Good morning, class.
Schoolwide Concours
Today's the schoolwide concours.
Have you gotten everything ready?
At 9:00 I'll be passing out assignments, and then we begin.
We'll break for lunch, and then stop at 3:00 PM.
ncours
The review begins at 4:00. We're doing both classes at once, so be sure to be there.
Yuno, that's creepy!
Pencil sketch [hour 5]
--Instructions--
Arrange the bottle, can, eggplant, string, and hat on the desk in a way that brings out their individual traits,then draw them with a pencil.
You may choose portrait or landscape.
There's so many motifs.
They're all tougher than usual.
If I don't bring out their individual features...
Bottle, can, eggplant, string, hat.
Sensitive sweetheart!?
The quicker people are already drawing!?
I've gotta hurry up.
Yunocchi looks confused.
That's good enough.
I've gotta hurry!
Sorry, Miya, did I hit you?
Don't worry. Do your best, Yunocchi!
I can't really get the perspective right...
Miss Yoshinoya's looking.
Usually she'd give me a little advice...
I wonder what she thinks of my drawing.
Yuno sure has a nice tight butt.
Lunchtime!
I think I'll have the daily special today.
Gorgeous!
I want to forget about the concours for a little while and enjoy my meal.
What's today's special A?
A is eggplant and pork stir-fry with miso.
Eggplant... How about B?
B is spaghetti with meat sauce and eggplant.
And C?
Szechuan eggplant.
Do you hate me?
Huh?
There's only a little time left.
I need to focus and draw.
I don't know what to do...
All right, time's up.
I'll be collecting the eggplants.
All right, let's compare them.
The upper ones scored better.
Review is at 4:00. You're free until then.
What's wrong, Yunocchi?
I'm so scared of the ranking that I can't look.
I feel like they're staring at my back.
That's right. I think they're staring at my butt, though.
Oh, I ranked high!
Really? You're great!
Mine is...
Am I just imagining things, or did Yuno get shorter?
She looks even tinier than usual...
What!? I can't take out that scene!
Wow, Sae doesn't yell that often.
I told you, I can't!
Look like she's on the phone to her editor.
I didn't get enough sleep... I was too tense...
If I'd been in proper form... Just a little more!
No way!
This hurts so much...
Why does drawing have to end up like this?
I feel like maybe I should just never show anyone my work...
But then, why do I draw?
Huh? I don't think I draw to show people anyway...
Why does drawing have to end up like this?
I feel like maybe I should just never show anyone my work...
Oh no! I almost caught myself in a loop!
Anguish!
That's right, when you're sketching you're judged solely on technique...
So the review can be clear and painful. But if you practice, you'll get better.
You don't need to worry about it.
Sorry, I'm just whining.
Don't worry too much about it.
Sae!?
Next door there's another girl who agonizes over her creation.
Sometimes it seems like Sae is always in the kind of situation you're in now.
She's constantly judged by other people while she hones her skills.
It must be very hard for her.
But why... Why does she keep trying?
I don't know. Maybe because she loves it?
I can't take this!
She's having such a hard time...
Monthly KIRARA
Yunocchi!
You're sound asleep.
Did you stay up late?
Art Dept.
I can't keep my eyes open...
You don't need to force yourself to today. It's okay.
Yuno, that's creepy!
