Guri?
Hey!
Salt Flavor
I've got snacks.
Guri? I've got canned food.
I've got cake.
Guri?
She's not here, either?
Where did she go?
You can't find Guri?
I thought for sure that she'd be at your house.
I thought the same thing.
By the way, are you okay, Akua?
With what?
With Coraly. Doesn't he creep you out?
Not at all.
He's so fluffy and beautiful. Of course I wouldn't be creeped out.
Akua-san is the type that can truly ascertain the essence of beauty.
Maybe I should think of it as the price for her no longer being traumatized by Stolas.
Oh, dear!
We can't sit here playing around forever.
I'll go look around outside for Guri, as well.
Blue-san, I'll be letting myself in again.
I'm much more mobile on the ground in this form.
I can't, I can't, I can't!
What's wrong, Akua-san?
Well, knowing Guri, she'll come home eventually.
Love Tyrant
One Week Later
Where Did She Go? x I Apologize for Troubling You Until Now
Good morning,
Seiji-kun!
Good morning, Akane-san. You're in a good mood.
I think I know why, though.
Yeah, because the little monkey hasn't been around lately!
Just having her gone makes it so peaceful around here!
Seiji-san...
Yuzu-chan?
Has Guri-san still not returned?
It's been quite a while since we last saw her.
Yeah, you're right.
She can just disappear forever!
Usually, when she goes off somewhere, she's back in about three days.
I just got back!
But Seiji-san, shouldn't you be more concerned?
You can't even reach her on her Love Phone, can you?
What if something has happened to her?
B-But it's Guri.
Don't you feel like we'd be wasting our time worrying?
Please be more serious about searching for her!
T-To say that is one thing, but...
It's been more than a week already!
Anyway, wouldn't Kami-sama know where she is?
Well, you see...
The Kami TV isn't working because of this strange static.
Waaah! Guri-chan, where are you?!
So you call that thing the "Kami TV"?
Can't we just leave things as they are?
Nothing, no one, nowhere, is bothered by this at all.
It's wonderfully peaceful!
Have you completely forgotten your roles as couple creators?
Oh! There was something about that!
If we don't find Guri and you can't do your jobs,
all of your souls will disappear!
That penalty is too much!
It's totally okay if she's not around.
No, it's not okay!
Damn that Guri! Where did she go?
She's always causing trouble.
Um...
I don't think that's right.
I don't think that should be the reason.
Aren't you all lonely without Guri-san around?
This is the first time since we met her that we've gone so long without seeing her.
Rather than searching for her out of obligation,
I want to find her simply because I want to see her.
Yuzu-chan...
I'm so glad Guri was able to make such a loving friend!
I'm sorry for making you help me.
It's fine. This would be hard on your own.
Oh, Sensei! Perfect timing.
M-Mari-ku—
Gosh, there you go falling over nothing again.
Here. Can you stand, Sensei?
Th-Thanks.
Please pull yourself together.
I guess this is the first time I've gone this long without seeing Guri since we met.
It's really sort of...
quiet.
Well, I feel bad for her, so I guess I'd better try looking for her again.
Wait, maybe she knows...
Chemistry Preparation Room
Kusunoki-sensei, it's rather embarrassing,
but I'm having trouble with part of our lesson.
Oh, you're...
Shiramine.
I'm in the same class as Mari-san.
Which part don't you understand?
This part here.
Ah, this one. This is about—
Sensei, there's something I'm much more interested in learning from you.
Shikimi-san!
Sorry, Sensei, I'm going to borrow her!
Huh? Um...
Sh-Shikimi-san!
What were you going to do to Kusunoki-sensei?
Hey!
Shikimi-san?
Gosh, Seiji-kyun, you're so bold.
Did you want to play with me that badly?
N-No...
I wanted to ask you something.
And I wanted to tell you not to mess with Kusunoki-sensei.
Why?
Because he belongs to the class rep?
Being all lovey-dovey with him is just like asking me to steal him.
That teacher is so naïve. I bet he'd fall for me in no time.
You can't!
You can't break up those two, Shikimi-san.
You know, you're still kind of a kid, so you might not understand this,
but it's easy—
Even so.
Stealing something from someone else doesn't make it yours.
Is there anyone you've taken from someone else who's still with you now?
What's the point of keeping them with me when I can so easily take more?
But thinking that way is—
I'm getting sucked into her pace.
Anyway, don't mess with those two.
So, what did you want, anyway?
That's right! It's about Guri!
Guri-chan?
We haven't seen her at all lately. You know something, don't you?
What? Are you implying that I did something?
No, I just had a hunch.
You suspect me because of a hunch? You really don't trust me.
Well...
But... it's not like you need other people to trust you, right?
What's your deal? You're pissing me off.
You talk big like that,
then act like you're not interested in me?
I've known guys like you before,
but in the end, they all crumbled before me.
I'll make your body understand, then.
Do you like it rough?
Or do you like it gentle?
Oh, right. You can handle pain, can't you?
Then I'll make adorable sounds come out of that obnoxious mouth.
You'll be mine before you know it.
I won't!
I'll never be yours, Shikimi-sa—
See?
Stealing things is so easy.
Y-You can't just force—
You're so delicious.
I'd completely forgotten.
How was that, Guri-chan?
Hey! You're here, too? What a coincidence.
Shikimi-san?
My, what's the matter?
You seem kind of down.
You can talk to me, if you'd like.
Maid Café Camellia
You lack something compared to other girls?
What would that be?
I don't know, but a lot of people keep telling me the same thing.
And now, even I'm starting to feel that way.
But you like Seiji-kyun in your own way, don't you?
And you seem happy.
I thought I was happy, but lately, I've not been so sure about that.
When I think about it, my mind sort of goes fuzzy.
Then maybe you should stay away from him until you know?
Stay away?
If you don't know your own feelings, try looking from the outside.
Think about what makes you different from Akane-tan and Yuzu-chin.
If you change your point of view, you might see something you weren't able to before.
Good idea, huh? I'm a genius! Brilliant!
Guri?
Hey, Guri!
Guri, I've got canned food.
She's not here...
I'm glad he's searching for me.
I understand this feeling perfectly well, but...
Seiji-kun!
Gotcha!
Wh-What is it?
Just thinking about how much I love you!
Gosh, the instant I look away, you two—
Th-That wasn't... I mean, um...
I should be happy they're both getting along so well with Seiji-san, but...
I feel a little uneasy.
Being in love means that, whether you're happy or sad...
this part of you aches.
Is this what she meant?
Hey, Shikimi-sa—
It's been so boring lately, since I haven't talked to Seiji-san.
I really wish he'd find me soon.
Then I could pop out and surprise him, like it was all a prank!
Prank Successful!!
But Seiji-san hasn't bothered to find me.
And he happily spends his time with the others.
Does he care about me at all?
S-Someone save me...
Aw, she's here already.
Shikimi...
Wow, she looks more like a villain than a hero.
A-Akane-san!
What are you doing to Seiji-kun?!
Wait, you!
What, you ask? Well, I can't tell you that.
What did you say?!
Besides, Seiji-kyun was the one who brought me here.
What?!
Th-That's not—
It's because I was trying to mess with something precious to the class rep.
Wh-What is with this tragedy?
Yuzu-chan, help me.
You haven't changed at all since we were kids.
You're afraid to build anything of your own,
so you just want the things that you know are already complete!
People like you are the most pitiful of all!
That's rich coming from someone who's just a doll.
I've changed since I fell in love with Seiji-kun.
Even Yuzu has been changed by him.
Hey, Onee-sama!
Someone like you, who never changes, should be left alone for the rest of your life!
I see. Well, it doesn't matter.
I don't envy you, anyway.
Besides, I won't be the only one left alone.
Guri!
Guri-san!
Seiji-san, Yuzu-san, and Akane-san?
Does that mean I've been found?
That's right!
Shikimi-san!
So you did know where Guri was!
Well, yeah.
I never said I didn't know.
Besides, you were never really gone, were you, Guri-chan?
Guri-chan has been close by this entire time.
You just never truly went looking for her.
She's been close by?
So you've been the one hiding her, then!
What's the meaning of this?!
Zzz...
Hey, you!
Guri, be serious and listen to me.
If You've Seen This Head, Please Contact Us
Find Guri-chan!!
Everyone's been in an uproar since you left.
Find Guri-chan!!!
Even Yuzu-chan was really worried!
Did you have fun watching all that?
I know you're always messing with us, but this was just mean!
S-Seiji-san, let's hear her out before you go blaming her!
Hey, Guri-chan.
Did being away for a bit help you find your answer?
Hey, Guri!
I still don't understand anything.
Hey!
Then why don't you try asking him?
Do you know how worried everyone's been?
Seiji-san...
Were you worried about me, Seiji-san?
How do you feel about me, Seiji-san?
Huh?
Why ask that now?
You've been nothing but a pain since we first met!
Seiji-san, how can you say something like that?!
B-But if I don't tell her now...
Guri!
Wh-What?
Guri!
Wh-Wh-What have you done?!
This is horrible!
Wow, amazing! So this really is what happens!
Hey, is this enough?
Well, I guess it's not bad, for a human.
Maoh-san?!
Maoh!
Hello. It's been a while.
Wh-Why are you here, Maoh-san?
Also, you were working with Shikimi-san?
Well, it's a long story.
D-Do you think you can get away with this?!
But I didn't even do anything here.
Seiji-kun, was it?
I am grateful to you for this.
Since you pushed her away,
I was able to guide Guri-chan toward taking her proper form.
Th-That's Guri, right?
Black wings and horns...
It's like she's a...
A demon!
So beautiful! She's perfect!
A demon?
No way! It's just another one of her cosplays, right?
If only that were the case.
This is the worst possible thing that can happen to an angel.
She has fallen!
Then Guri-chan has really become a demon.
You look good, Guri-chan!
I prefer this look.
What's happened to me?
You've been reborn, from an angel to a demon.
I see.
Then I must do what I must do, right?
Wait, Guri!
Explain this to us!
Don't just go off on your own again!
Aino Seiji-san, I apologize for troubling you until now.
As you can see, I've become a demon, and so must do my job as a demon.
So I bid you farewell.
What's up with you?! You're talking about working!
What are you saying, Guri-san? Come back to your senses!
My apologies, but the Guri you knew no longer exists.
It's your fault Guri changed, Seiji-san.
What does she mean, it's my fault?
I will be off, too.
I haven't forgotten.
Seiji-kun! We'll be leaving now, as well! Bye-bye!
Wh-What is the meaning of this?
Why was Maoh-san here?
Why did Guri—
She said it was my fault. But what did I do?
Did you do something so terrible to Guri?!
The only reason an angel would fall is if they doubt the concept of love!
But I didn't do anything!
Yuzu-chan?
We can't worry about the cause right now! We have to go after Guri-san!
That's right!
We don't have time for this!
What the hell? Stop being so familiar with me! It's gross!
Where'd that come from?!
Guri-chan, are you ready to come to Hell now?
No, I'm not done yet.
I need to clean up the mess I made as an angel.
She's so serious.
Guri-san, what are you doing?
Who are all those people?
I'm getting rid of their love.
Because they don't need it.
You can't say things like that!
It's not like you, Guri-san!
I'll get rid of your love for you, too.
Look out!
Guri! Open your eyes!
You're a cupid!
Oh, it's time to clock out.
Huh?
Guri-san!
I will definitely come for you!
With Seiji-san too, I swear!
That's our cue.
Why is everyone fighting?
Why are you so slow?!
Guri-san already left!
S-Sorry!
Wait, Guri did all this?
Because of you, Aino-san!
I told you, stop trying to place blame!
No, it is your fault, Seiji-san!
You're the one who neglected Guri-san!
She did this because you wouldn't properly face her!
Stop it, Yuzu.
This is all her fault.
Not Seiji-kun's.
Akane-san.
Onee-sama...
But... But I promised Guri-san!
That I'd come for her with Seiji-san!
You should come, too—
No.
I hope she goes away forever.
But Guri-san is our dear friend...
She's not my friend.
When you were being held prisoner, Guri-san went with me to save you!
Isn't it our turn to save Guri-san this time?
I don't care about that.
I don't want to involve Seiji-kun for her sake.
Yuzu-chan!
Onee-sama is...
Onee-sama is just a big dummy! Hmph!
Yuzu-chan!
Seiji-kun?
Sorry, Akane-san.

Guri, tell me! What should I do for you?
You should just tell him that you don't want to see him anymore, Guri-chan.
I... I want Seiji-san to...
