Welcome to Gourmet Nouveau, hailing from the gourmet capital of the world, Paris.
And here is Beelzebub-sama, the goddess of gourmet and the Gluttony Queen,
here to guide you into a world of beauty combined with good food.
Thank you for the food, Beelzebub-sama.
Everyone, welcome to my gluttonous dinner party.
Tonight, we'll eat together and be content—
That's pretty funny.
You're gathering followers using this tacky party?
That lacks class.
The Sixth Sin, Beelzebub of Gluttony.
L-Lucifer?
You didn't invite me, so I just kind of dropped in.
You know what I'm doing on the surface, right?
I'm not going to blabber on.
Fight with me.
Fight?
It's my policy to fight my opponents on their own turf.
We're having a eating contest. That's perfect for you.
I don't...
Everyone, we have a chance to see just how much Beelzebub-sama can eat.
Praise her beautiful gluttony, and burn the image into your eyes.
Beelzebub-sama!
But I...
Beelzebub-sama!
Seven Mortal Sins
Guiltless Gluttony
Beelzebub-sama is so cute.
A cute girl and gluttony...
We know who's going to win this one.
What wonderful eating form.
Lucifer-oneesama is so wonderful!
I want you to eat Levi, too!
You enchant people's hearts and make them fall.
That's how a demon lord must eat.
This is an eating contest.
Of course.
Onee-sama's got this in the bag.
Yeah...
What? My stomach is...
Huh?
You can do this, Onee-sama!
Beelzebub-sama has caught up in the remaining five minutes.
Now, it's time for the Gluttony Queen to strut her stuff!
Beelzebub-sama!
I can still do more!
But this hurts...
Burp, burp, burp...
The two have tied!
Burp...
I-I'll let you off the hook for today.
Onee-sama?
Let's go.
I can't believe I...
I mean, come on.
Yeah, that hurts.
My stomach hurts.
Give me a break.
That's going to make me...
Onee-sama! Thank goodness...
Are you okay?
Where are we?
Ow...
What's this?
Where are we?
Who are you?
We're at a hospital.
Do you remember passing out in the restroom?
Passing out?
How pathetic...
All I did was eat too much.
It's not just from overeating.
You have a stomach flu virus.
Virus?
The symptoms hit you hard without any resistance built up.
We won't know more without a thorough check-up,
and you'll have to be hospitalized for a bit.
Do you have any relatives?
You mean me?
There's no one else here.
True...
I guess you could call me a relative.
Then we'll need you to do the paperwork.
The nurse will explain everything you need to know.
You'll need to fill out several documents, so please come this way.
R-Right.
Totsuka Maria-san,
what relationship do you have with the patient?
Well, it's difficult to say, but I'm together with her.
That's an issue.
Will I not suffice?
People aren't just healed by a doctor.
They need the appropriate person by their side helping them.
Do you understand?
Y-You're right.
Well...
The two of us aren't parting ways anytime soon.
It's not like that's the only reason, but...
Sorry, but I need you to remove those hair pieces, the horns.
Huh?
You can see them?
Yes?
Oh, I see. It's not a problem.
Huh? What's this?
She has two hearts?
I wonder if this thing's broken.
These people keep getting worried about stuff that isn't important at all.
I don't have enough magic to deal with this.
Are you okay?
Who thought I'd be taking your shoulder?
I'm kind of happy about it, honestly.
Huh? About what?
Don't worry about it.
Why am I here?
There's no privacy with just some curtain around me.
It's ridiculously small.
Everything's annoying.
I'm surprised you can even sleep this early.
What are you even doing?
I've had it!
What's the matter?
Isn't it obvious? It's so loud in here that I can't sleep!
I asked for a private room! What's going on here?!
Doctor's orders.
Doctor's?
You're a new patient here.
The nurse station is nearby, so we can take care of anything if it comes up.
Right.
I wonder what Maria is doing.
It's nice being alone every once in a while.
It's great.
This isn't like me.
You're late!
How long does it take just to come see me?
But visiting hours just started.
And what about it?
Here's a towel to wipe yourself down, as well as a change of clothes.
I'll remove your IV immediately.
I'll wipe you down!
I'm fine!
I'll do it myself!
Come on! This is in the way!
Don't go overboard!
Why won't anything go the way I want?!
Please let us know when you're done changing.
Thank you very much.
Leave it to Levi!
The clothes go off!
I'll burn myself, dummy!
Onee-sama's in a bad mood.
Bad mood?
Did something happen last night?
You bet your butt it did!
The bed's too hard.
I'm not used to the pillow.
The room's too small.
Lights out is way too early.
I can't get comfortable!
The snoring's too loud, and so is the coughing!
And I can't get to sleep!
Are you okay?
You shouldn't just try to grin and bear it if it hurts.
You're a billion years too young to try to lecture me.
Okay, that hurts...
I'm worried about you!
Doctor!
It seems that the intravenous analgesic isn't working.
We'll have to do a suppository.
Suppository?
I'll need to see your rear end.
But I...
Don't be difficult.
Where are you looking?
Now, just relax.
H-Hold on a second.
Onee-sama!
Call me if the pain doesn't go away.
Lucifer?
I feel like I've completely lost.
I've hit rock bottom.
H-Hey, Onee-sama...
Just... go home.
But...
Go home.
I feel bad for Onee-sama.
I need to make her feel better.
Looks like the medicine is working.
And it's just sad you didn't even start to notice, Lucifer.
I wonder if it's because you've lost magic, due to the Seven Commandments.
What was your goal in coming all the way to Hell?
I guess I'll just have to ask your body.
Give everything of yours to me.
I knew you were hiding something.
A heart?
I wonder whose it is...
Wait. Could it be that girls'?
It's not here!
Damn it. It was her, Belial!
The doctor quit out of nowhere, supposedly.
I see.
I was way too careless.
She saw through everything.
I'm sure she won't realize the secret of the heart, but...
How can I get it back?
Also, I can't let Maria find out about this.
Lucifer, are you okay?
Is something the matter?
N-Nothing really.
Really?
You need to say something if your stomach hurts.
I'm fine.
Don't worry about it.
Someone new came in next door.
I'm going to ask about your new doctor.
Levi is going to buy you a new change of underwear.
Maria...
Yes?
No, I'm sorry for making you help out so much.
That's not true.
I'm the one who got you involved in all of this.
I'm grateful to you.
You're acting kind of weird, you know?
Your stomach still hurts, doesn't it?
It's weird for me to be grateful?
Yeah, it is.
I want you to get better, and return to your normal proud self.
Come on.
There's no need to get worked up.
I can get it back after I take out the remaining Sins.
This is the medicine for your gastric dilation.
It also seems you've been eating a bit too much,
so you won't be able to eat again for a little bit.
I guess my neighbor doesn't get to eat, too.
Let me know if you need anything, Beelzebub-san.
Beelzebub?!
Burp, burp...
She's here for gastric dilation.
You know, she was burping a lot.
Burp, burp, burp...
And she's supposed to be the Demon Lord of Gluttony, too.
Neighbor, are you okay?
Y-Yes.
Gastric dilation?
I have a stomach flu virus.
You don't get food, then.
That's right.
I'm super hungry.
I'm hungry, too.
You've sure got an appetite to be hungry when your stomach's messed up.
Food isn't evil.
Huh?
It's the best medicine to put a smile on your face.
I hope I get to eat again soon.
Me, too.
L-Lucifer?!
What's going on?
She's pretty fun, surprisingly.
She's been hospitalized often before,
and she's let me know a lot.
Right?
Bath
Occupied
Isn't it great that you got permission to take a bath?
I can do this on my own.
They said someone has to accompany you.
Levi will wash every nook and cranny.
You don't have to wash me there.
Feel good?
Stop it.
You always tease me, Onee-sama.
You've got Levi and you're making friends with Beelzebub instead.
I'm going to get mad.
Levi's not letting go.
That's enough.
Switch with Maria.
Maria, are you there?!
Why don't you like it?!
You're always like that!
Levi cares so much for you.
Do you know how sad that makes me?
Levi...
Levi wants you to pay attention to me.
Levi has been with you ever since you fell from Heaven,
and Levi has only ever cared about you.
But Levi doesn't know why she followed you out of Hell anymore.
Levi's dumb, so she doesn't know how to put it into words better.
But...
But Levi loves you.
Levi...
Do you hate Levi?
Silly. Of course not.
Onee-sama...
Only for tonight, okay?
Yeah, I'm really happy.
It's like all my worries have just gone.
You're such a kid.
What is this?
Levi, I'm going to get you for this.
I finally get food and it's this watery rice oatmeal-like stuff.
That's good.
You serious?
This is good?
I couldn't eat for so long, and that first bite is simply bliss.
I'm not so sure.
Actually, swallowing food for the first time in a while is nice.
Lucifer-sama 3 Parts, Porridge
A la carte debut, with hors d'oeuvres
Lucifer-sama 5 Parts, Porridge
I'd like something a bit more solid.
It's good, though.
Don't you want something more?
This is enough.
The sweetness of the porridge,
and the right amount of salt from the side dishes create the perfect flavor.
Now that you mention it...
It is good.
Right?
And it's just porridge, too.
No, it's because it's porridge.
Because it's porridge?
Huh?
I can taste the individual flavors because it's just porridge,
more so than anything else.
I see. I guess I do have a more enhanced taste.
I can make out the flavors and the salt much better.
And that's what makes it taste good.
Are you really the Demon Lord of Gluttony?
I don't get it.
You're going on about stuff that's the complete opposite of gluttony.
And it's weird that a Demon Lord of Gluttony
would even get hospitalized for gastric dilation.
It doesn't seem like your magic has been sealed away.
Do you hate the hospital?
Of course I do!
Well, I don't.
The porridge is good.
It's a little bit too coincidental we'd get discharged from the hospital on the same day.
Yeah, you worked hard, Lucifer.
You, too.
Levi doesn't like this.
Why is she with us?
I guess they promised each other.
It's quite ironic.
Humans include eating as a sin.
I guess that's what makes it interesting.
I just want them to eat good things and be happy for it.
And it doesn't work out how you expected?
I used to eat a lot, too,
but no matter how much I ate, I wasn't satisfied.
Okay, let's eat.
Meat!
Sniff, sniff...
Are we having an eating competition?
No.
You're going to eat everything I give you, okay?
Sure, no problem.
Your meat is really good.
Right?
Lucifer, I'll give you my throne.
What's going on?
This isn't any good.
I don't need it.
When the time comes, all will change.
Today we're celebrating getting better.
Right.
Here you go, Bub.
Open up.
I want more.
Here you go.
Make sure you really enjoy it, Bub.
Oneesama, you're so mean, so mean, so mean...
When the time comes...?
Thanks for the food.
Sure.
That looks good on you, Bub.
I'm happy.
Thank you, Lucifer.
Bub, I want you to continue doing as you have.
Okay, I got it.
I'll wait for you, hungry in Hell.
Anyway, we're going to walk off that food.
We'll get fat otherwise.
Anyway, let's go, Levi.
Onee-sama!
D-Doctor?!
Thank you for...
Huh? I can't move...
Wait? Could you be...
Huh? Where's Maria?
Belial...
