A Day Off
Trash Station
Keep it neat! Please put your trash out by 8:30 AM on your designated collection days.
Through the Dark Lord. Amen.
Ready?
Ready!
Sorry!
Could you get that ball for us?
Jeez, lady! Throw a homer, will you?
Sorry!
Right, keep your elbow up and out.
Don't stand straight up. Lean a bit forward.
Okay, now throw.
Throw a homer, will you?
Sorry.
Shoot, I missed the start of the holiday quest.
Through the Dark Lord. Amen.
11/2 Gab was as irresponsible as ever today. I still can't believe she graduated at the top of her class at angel school.
11/3 Breakfast: Toast Bacon & eggs Vegetable juice Lunch (in the park) Consommé soup
Today was another great day.
Huh?!
My stipend went down again?!
Episode 7 Vigne's Demonic Life
What's the matter?
You seem somewhat out of spirit.
My stipends from Hell keep decreasing.
Because you don't do anything demonic, despite being a demon?
Y-Yeah. I think so.
Well, perhaps you could start by dressing in a way that raises Hell?
Th-That's a good idea.
I have something oh-so-beastly that you can try.
Really?
Thanks!
What is this?
Oh, so... beastly.
Oh-so-beastly.
Get it?
Hell's bells!
Then perhaps you could try acting like Satania-san?
Like Satania?
I am the future queen of Hell,
Kurumizawa Satanichia McDowell.
My abyssal darkness envelops your very soul!
O-Okay, I'll try.
I am the demon at whose feet darkness grovels,
Tsukinose Vignette April.
I hold this world in the palm of my hand!
Oh, so... beastly!
Despair in the darkest depths of...
I can't do it!
I'll die of embarrassment!
Oh, dear.
Gloom
One of the few people who can appreciate my coffee,
the angel who compliments my blend with a smile on every cup,
hasn't taken a single sip and is in a dark, dark mood.
I want to dispel her darkness.
No. I must!
What's the matter?
Something on your mind?
N-No... Well...
If you need someone to talk to, I'd be happy to listen.
Huh?
Really?
Though an old man like me might not be much help.
No, no, that's not true.
Erm...
Would you mind if I asked a question?
What is it?
I'm all ears.
Go ahead.
Could you tell me how to do bad deeds?!
What?!
What did she just say?
"Bad deeds"?!
Are my ears starting to go?!
I just can't seem to do bad deeds.
They aren't?!
Is there any kind of trick to doing them?
A trick to doing bad deeds?!
I think it's better not to do any bad deeds...
I can't not do them!
What?!
I'm so sorry!
No, it's quite all right.
Why would she want to do bad things?
She's such a kind and caring girl.
No, she couldn't possibly want to do any bad deeds.
There must be some complicated reason for this.
She must be in a situation where she'll be forced to do bad deeds.
For instance...
Ya got stones, I give ya that.
If ya want a fight, I'll give ya one.
Diss me, and they peel ya face off pavement. Feel?
She's cast in the role of a gang girl in a play!
Then it would only be right for her to explore her character!
Ya dissin' me?
Maybe it isn't something that you can help me with. Forget I asked.
N-Not at all.
Truth be told, I used to be quite the rebel myself.
I think I can be of help to you.
Really?
Back in the day, they would call me the Indestructible Buddha-Face.
I'm not sure what that means, but wow!
Coffee of the Day
Let's brainstorm some bad deeds for you, shall we?
Okay!
The Next Day
Master-san helped me come up with so many bad deeds
11/7 Stopped at Moon Coffee on the way home from school and asked Raphi for advice. When we got to my place, she dressed me up as a bear... for the sake of her own silly pun. She did other embarrassing things to me, too...
After shopping for dinner, I went to Angel Coffee. Master's (Miscreant) Advice Be late: Hard... Fake being sick to skip school: Can't!!! Skip lunch: Might not be a bad deed? Don't drink coffee all day: Toughest one for Master!
that even I should be able to do.
I won't let you down, Master-san.
I'll pull this off with flying colors and become a demon among demons!
A-A demon?!
To start my evil streak...
I didn't button up my cardigan.
What's more, I loosened my ribbon to up the bad girl vibe.
And the pièce de résistance: the baggy socks that Master-san talked about!
I'm dressed so slovenly!
My goodness, I'm being such a bad girl!
I'm dying to see Gab's reaction!
Mornin'.
Morning, Gab.
God, I'm sleepy.
Another day, another sacrifice of sleep time for the praise and glory of "school."
Y-Yeah, guess so.
Now, how will she react?
I'm getting butterflies.
What?
Let's get our butts to school.
Huh?!
She ignored it?!
But I'm dressed so badly!
Well, that's fine.
I'll try one of Master-san's teachings:
that phrase.
G-Gab!
What?
B...
Bad to the bone.
Say what now?
That's strange.
Why didn't she notice?
Did I get something wrong?
No, Master-san and I had a great brainstorming session.
I have backup plans.
My next bad deed will clinch it.
My next bad deed will be...
leaving the tip of Gab's pen out!
She has to notice this.
After all, if you don't catch that quick, your pen tip dries up.
Huh?
How'd that get left out?
Hooked her!
Wait! Gab!
Uh, what?
You just put your pen away, right?
Yeah, and?
Didn't you notice anything?
No?
Wasn't the tip still out?
Oh, was it?
Eh, whatevs.
"Wh-Whatevs"?
That pen might end up ruined,
and all she says is "whatevs"?!
Meanwhile, I'm positively horrified by the thought...
Aoki.
Here.
Pres.
There's only one way to salvage this.
Here.
Ueno.
Here.
Ukami.
I really didn't want to do this, but...
Here.
Edogawa.
Here.
Master-san and I came up with this as a last resort.
Koyamada.
Here.
Skipping class!
Yes, the standard bad-girl fare.
All roads lead to skipping class.
But jumping straight to skipping class is like running a marathon cold...
What?!
Skip class?!
Back in my day, delinquents would always skip classes.
They'd leave the school grounds and go to town.
You, too, Master-san?
O-Of course.
They would call me Saint Skipper the Buddha-Face.
W-Wow!
Okay.
So I need to skip class.
I don't know if I can do that.
Right, actually skipping class might be a bit too bad a deed. That's true.
Even considering it has my heart pounding.
How's this for a bad deed, then?
Skip taking notes during class.
In a sense, since it means you aren't participating in class,
it might count as actually skipping class.
You're right!
Master-san, I won't let you down!
I'll skip this class—all sixty minutes of it!
That was hard as Hell.
I never imagined that doing nothing for sixty minutes
could be so mentally draining.
The number of times I caught myself starting to take notes...
But I did it! I skipped class!
What's up with you today?
Oh, nothing.
But get this, Gab.
Uh, what?
You're scaring me.
I wasn't taking notes during the class we just had.
Well?
Bring it!
Uh-huh...
And it's over!
Sixty straight minutes of evil,
and that's all she says?
Nurse's office?
Restroom.
My evil streak didn't get through at all.
All that hard work, just for an "uh-huh."
Maybe I'm just not cut out for evil.
Huh?
Vignette!
Where are you going?
Restroom.
I'll go with you.
Hey. You're dressed kinda different today.
Stickin' it to the uniform police? Nice.
What's with the hand?
Just put your hand up.
I'm back!
Uh, yeah. Hi?
Yay!
Yay, yay!
Huh?
It hasn't increased?
Gab, you've been tardy an awful lot lately.
Who cares? The teacher isn't here yet.
Wait, gimme some cash.
Why?
I'm all outta dough for the month.
No microtransactions means staying up waiting for heals,
and then oversleeping.
So gimme some cash.
No way in Hell.
Stop playing video games and go to bed on time.
The Next Day
She got on my case about being late yesterday,
but look who's late today.
Vignette
Sorry. At home with a cold today.
You'd better listen in class!
Cough
Doesn't the Devil look after his own?
Complacency killed the demon.
So demons can catch human colds in the human world?
Human colds are worse than I ever imagined.
I keep sneezing, my nose is runny,
and my head's all hazy.
How am I supposed to fall asleep?
Oh, right.
Humans like to count animals to help them fall asleep.
Which animal was it again?
Hell's Guard Dog
Cerberus
Cerberus?
One Cerberus.
Two Cerberi.
Three Cerberi.
Four Cerberi.
Come on, hop over the fence.
They just keep piling up!
I can't sleep at all.
Coming down with the common cold?
Oh, that Vignette. So sad.
You've never caught a cold in your life, Satania-san?
Obviously not!
I'm not some lightweight loser.
They say the race is to the slowest and steadiest!
So I'm too slow to catch a cold!
Um, where did you...
Wh-What?
It's not like I got that from Gabriel or anything!
I see.
I-I really didn't!
You do me proud, Gab-chan.
I really should eat something,
but I don't have anything in the fridge
or the energy to go shopping.
We came by...
...to check on you!
And you're that wired?
You came by to play around.
Oh, ye of little faith!
Look, I even brought you a get-well gi—
You!
Bad dog! Get back here!
This is what I brought for you.
Enjoy.
Sorry. I couldn't reclaim your melon bread.
I think I'll get over it.
Why is that mutt so devoted to snatching my bread?
Maybe he likes you?
I don't need that kind of devotion!
How dare he spoil this visit?!
It's okay. It's the thought that counts.
Well, it's not over yet.
I brought you more than just bread.
Oh, really?
Sorry about the playing around thing.
The Game of Eternal Life
Carry out your destiny. Guide mankind!
Heaven or Hell?!
Voila!
The Game of Eternal Life!
I also brought a game.
I knew it. You came by to play around.
No, no.
I figured sleeping all day'd bore you to death.
I thought I'd jump on the Satania-san bandwagon.
Please! Don't they know how to act when visiting the sick?
I think my fever went up.
I have to sleep off this cold.
I still can't fall asleep.
Which animal did humans count to fall asleep?
It's not Cerberi...
It was something smaller, softer, cuter...
Gabriel?!
From when we first met?
Well, it's worth a try.
One Gabriel.
Two Gabriels.
Three Gabriels.
Is she sleepy?
Wait, the first two are already down?!
No, don't sleep!
Wake up, Gab!
Ah, there's Gab Number Four!
Wake up the first three Gabs!
No, don't sleep! Stay strong!
No, come on!
Wake up, you Gabs!
Another huge pile-up?!
Give me a break!
Wake up, Gabriel!
Huh?
Mornin'.
This is my apartment, right?
Well, yeah.
Why are you here?
I brought your homework.
Thanks.
Did I doze off?
I don't know what you were dreaming about,
but just so you know, there's only one me.
Thanks for bringing me my homework, Gab.
Vigne.
Yeah?
I'm thirsty.
Oh, you.
Making a sick person serve you tea? What's the big idea?
So, how are you feeling?
Still sick?
Oh, right.
I feel much better now.
Good to hear.
Gab...
What?
You were worried about me?
Of course you were.
You're a sweetheart, deep down.
Not really.
I only came over to give you our homework.
Come on, don't lie.
Um, Gab-san?
What?
Are these two copies of the same assignment?
Oh, yeah.
One for you and one for me.
Why'd you give me yours?
Figured you could do mine, too. Two birds, one stone.
Hey, I'm sick, remember?
But you said you're feeling better, right?
That's why you asked how I was feeling?
Good grief! What is wrong with them all?!
It's like they all came over just to make me sicker.
Huh?
Original Udon
Did she forget that?
So she did come by because she cares.
I'm all outta dough for the month.
Jeez, that girl.
Gabriel
Gabriel?
