Episode 2: Is it wrong to eat what I like?!
Oh, are you ok?
Raw Provider: \( -o _ o- )/
Aw, poor baby, what's wrong?
Kuwano-san?
Kuwano Shinsuke-san?
- Yeah. - Please go to the 3rd room.
Hayasaka Natsumi
Please come in.
How do you feel?
Fine... As you can see.
And do you still have any intestinal pain?
None at all.
It really was just a minor stomachache after all, huh.
Yeah.
Ok, bye.
Wait a minute
About the results from the tests you took last time.
I've gathered my resolve
Go ahead
The polyp turned out to be benign.
But
your general cholesterol is 296
LDL cholesterol is 188
what's more, your blood fat level is 320.
It looks like hyperlipidemia
hyperlipidemia?
You have excessive fat in your blood.
Your blood pressure's on the high side as well.
These along with diabetes are what is known as the "Trio of Death"
Heh, trio of death
quartet of death... these are some harsh words.
Well actually, the fourth member would be obesity.
So what's the fifth member?
I wouldn't know.
Back to what I was saying earlier
with hyperlipidemia, if you continue with your current diet
it is known to lead to things like arteriosclerosis and heart attack.
I think you need to reconsider your diet.
Instead of red meat, switch to fish.
and on the other hand,
I have to increase my consumption of vegetables, right?
Oh, so you already knew!
yeah
Ok, bye.
It's not a matter of if but a matter of when.
You also happen to love milk and meat right?
I've been wondering since last time, but
to go so far as to force my hospitalization,
why are you so concerned with people's health?
Because when people don't listen to their doctors,
they tend to get very sick.
Give-and-take, huh.
I think it's something else.
I'll eat what I want when I want.
and even if I die early, I'll die content.
If that happened, there would be a lot of sad peop...
ah...
Nobody?
It looked like rain earlier, so you should be careful.
I just have one question.
Were you like this from birth?
According to my mother...
when I was a kid,
I listened to everything my mother told me.
So if any symptoms turn up, I'll be sure to...
Fine, then please take care.
I will.
Bye.
What how is he going to take care, anyway...
By clearing out this wall here
it exposes the kitchen and gives the room a sense of freedom.
This is Kuwano's suggestion.
Ahh... with the island kitchen in the middle?
Remodeling the kitchen is one of Kuwano's specialties.
Since you're thinking about buying, you can take these back and think about it.
Really?
I really like this one!
hmm, I wonder...
Regardless of which one you choose
I think you two will be very pleased with the results.
Well, darling?
Costing 2 million yen more (about $20,000)... it's a little steep
umm...
Can we think about it for a little longer?
We'll be waiting for you to call.
Well, after telling them that we could make it 30 or 40 thousand yen cheaper,
they seemed to totally take to the idea.
It looks like we won over the wife, but...
but, I think the second design one is the best one.
But 2 million yen!
That's what you make in a year, isn't it!
Well, yeah.
You're only paying him that much?!
Yeah, it's so pitiful
there are times when I pay for the both of us.
By the way, I went to the hospital today
Changing the subject like that!
Well? What did the doctor say?
nothing
Really? That's good news.
Apparently the doctor is a woman...
Oh..?
female doctor...
What?
Is she pretty?
Hmph. White face, no compassion,
moreover, she has an entirely closed-minded point of view.
Despite being an adult, her face is round like a little kid's,
what's more, her voice...
So she's pretty.
Having a beautiful doctor look after me...
I'm so jealous~
So I have a suggestion...
How about we all go out to celebrate?
Since we don't get to do many things together as a company,
I'll go crazy this time~
I'll treat you guys to anything you want..
Alright!!
What should we do?
Meat, of course.

Nakagawa?
What is it?
How about have dinner at my house tonight?
Why?
Well, Dr. Hayasaki let me see the results from your exam...
Wow it looks pretty bad.
Stop looking.
Invading a person's privacy like that...
So, in order to lower your blood fat and blood pressure,
I'll have my wife cook a nutritiously balanced meal for you.
Can I see results that fast?
No.
Come on,
you should think about doing things with your family once in a while.
Hey, the yakiniku, tonight's fine right?
Yeah.
I'm having yakiniku tonight.
Huh?
I'll be having succulent meat drenched in sauce,
Seared over an open fire, and while it's still rare and juicy...
dipped in a delicious meat-based soup
consume it, dripping with fat and cholesterol.
Well, bye.
Oh, Doctor?
Did you get a chance to talk to Kuwano-san?
In that condition, if he eats meat indiscriminately, he'll get sick.
I told it to him straight
man, he requires so much looking-after doesn't he?
Thanks.
Oh yeah.
I can't do tonight.
Something important came up
Huh?
You know,
we've already send in the reservation and everything, so don't say that!
We had just decided to go out tonight, too.
Moreover, we haven't done this in such a long time.
That's why, you...
Well, why don't you just go with the two of them?
Huh?
But, for a man and a woman to go out and eat yakiniku together,
isn't it normally after they become a couple?
Really?
Yea
But why did it become like that?
This has got nothing to do with that.
It's fine if it's just the two of us.
I'll pass!
I see.
Well, then
Excuse us
Ahh, just a second, Eiji
Huh?
Tonight's important thing...
What is it?
Ah, since my mom came here from the countryside to visit me, I have to go see her.
Hmmm, your mom comes and visits you a lot doesn't she?
Yeah
I guess
Okay, bye
I see, so you're two years younger
hmm, younger guys...
Frankly speaking, women don't like younger guys do they?
Oh, no, I don't mind at all
But I was really surprised when you called me!
I've been interested in architecture since way back,
so I kind of wanted to discuss it...
Oh really?
But,
Is Ken-san OK with this?
What?
You two are living together, right?
aaah
Do you want to see a picture?
Kuwano, that bastard...
Did Kuwano-san say that I was living with a man in my apartment?
No, he didn't say it like that but,
I think he deliberately tried to trick me.
I don't have anyone like that.
What about you?
Girlfriend?
What, me? no, no.
Oh, how's Kuwano-san doing?
Lively as ever.
I wish he'd suffered just a little bit more.
Let's stop talking about Kuwano-san
yeah, let's
We haven't even talked about each other yet.
Are you hungry?
A little
Do you like Italian food?
Italian?
I do! I do!
We can supersize it for 60 yen.
The set is 100 yen off.
What should we get?
Let's use these coupons!
The soup is 30 yen off.
This kitchen's so small
Why don't you build a bigger one?
Complaining all the time like that.
Hurry up and go sit down.
Who designed that kitchen anyway?
Is yakiniku postponed?
It's nice to have everyone get together and have dinner like this once in a while.
Don't you agree?
Did he invite you to come?
You don't have to make remarks about everything I say.
It's close so please come whenever you like~
Why, thank you.
Why'd you come tonight?
Um, this mayonnaise...
Oh, that's for the dressing.
There's no oil in it.
Right
Tell Shinsuke about this "healthy menu"
Because things like fat and egg yolk
are high in cholesterol, I'm not using any.
Also, EPA and DHA are found in fish,
which is also low in cholesterol, which is why you should eat this.
Also, with dried foods,
the cholesterol is lower
and has Vitamin E right?
Also, I put some cognac,
rich with antioxidants, into your salad.
So all in all, it should be around 500 calories.
Did you get that?
Yeah, French, right?
Of course it's hopeless for this guy.
You know, Of course it's hopeless for this guy.
You know,
when you're cooking for yourself,
you don't think about your health at all, do you.
You just stick a huge steak in the frying pan, am I wrong?
That's right
The best way to a healthy life
is to marry a woman who's good at cooking, don't you think?
That's right, that's right
Until you find a wife
you
should take better care of yourself
Are you done yet?
Now that you mention it, how about Hayasaka-sensei?
No way
You wouldn't marry a patient whose ass you examined, would you?
Who?
Hey wait, what kind of woman is this Hayasaka-sensei?
If you were to marry a doctor
you wouldn't have to worry when you get sick!
Hey, hey
This person, how old is she?
Don't worry about it.
The total is 924 yen.
Is it ok to take it from 1000 yen?
Yeah
Ok
Welcome
Is this the one that you want?
Yeah
Oh, wait,
not the 3rd volume.
I was pretty let down
It was an Italian family restaurant!
Is a chain restaurant normal for a first date?
and the worst part is
he used a coupon!!
these things he cut out of a magazine.
yeah, yeah
I was so surprised!
It's alright isn't it? He's still so young, after all.
But he's not a high schooler!
Isn't that just the worst?
But you can still like a guy who takes you out to chain restaurants, right?
Yeah, but for all the trouble isn't it better to eat at a fancier restaurant?
In Shibuya, as far as Italian restaurants go,
I've even gone to Angepatio. (The restaurant from Ep1)
You shouldn't compare him to your ex-boyfriends
But you know,
I think it's important to date better and better guys
So, in order to accomplish my goals,
I even went as far as to buy that book about architecture.
Do architects have a low salary?
In other words,
That Kuwano-san must be really stingy!
What happened?
Nothing
I'll call you back.
Good evening
Hello
Umm
I...
This is the first time I've been on speaking terms with someone from my apartment.
Me, too...
If it's just an acquaintance, it's ok just to say a passing hello
but, after you get to know someone, if you don't manage something to say,
doesn't it feel kind of awkward?
So do you want to talk
to me?
In other words
Let's go back to just being acquaintances.
What's with that guy, anyway.
What do you think?
How was it?
Your date yesterday
Well, it wasn't exactly a date but...
wait, how come you know that?
I know everything about my subordinates
Well..
It was perfect.
By any chance...
You didn't take her to a chain restaurant did you?
Huh?
Furthermore,
using coupons...
isn't this the end of that?
So that's why she was in such a bad mood!
Here, prepare this
OK
Thanks
This is complicated, so you have to be very careful
Did you hear from her about the date or something?
Yeah, I did
I'm sorry I went out with a baby like that
Baby?
Why couldn't she have told me herself?
What's this?
Looks like Kaneda's updated.
What?
"I went to Paris for a little while"
"A little while," Huh.
Doesn't he just reek of a fake architect to you?
This guy's parents are definitely rich.
But in the end, doesn't money win the girls over?
-Hey~ -Oh, hey
Hey, our clients from yesterday's decided to go with us!
Looks like we appealed to the wife.
Oh, really?
Isn't that great!
We should draw up the design immediately
Let's do it now
Oh, you already did it
As expected
Ah, that's right, let's have yakiniku tonight then!
Ok?
There's no helping it, huh
Tokyo Yakiniku Restaurant Special Report!!
sorry!
I can't do tonight
I've already made plans to see a Shima Uta live with my friend tonight.
Really?
Tokyo Yakiniku Restaurant Special Report!!
Why don't the two of you go?
If it's two men there's no problem is there?
No way
Two guys going at the meat by themselves like that.
Let's all just go some other day.
But, it's strange,
even though it's fine to go eat ramen by yourself
why is it so bad to have yakiniku alone?
Well, eating yakiniku with someone else, while it's still hot.. doesn't that feel best?
Says who?
It's the same for really fancy restaurants, too
Yeah, I know
Weirdos
By the way, what is Shimauta?
Welcome!
How large is your party tonight?
I'm by myself.
Right this way...
Hmm...
Have you decided yet?
This,
Can you choose the portions?
Excuse me?
No, it's ok
1 order of Deluxe marinated beef ribs
Yes
1 order of Deluxe marinated roast
Top grade harami, 1..
-Rice, and liver -Rice, liver
Make these all single portion
finally, a glass of red wine
red wine, check.
Here, eat up
really, I can't possibly eat anymore
You're a man right?
It's charred...
it's tastier that way
no, way..
I'm telling you it's more delicious!
Good evening
Ah, good evening!
Can I sit here?
Go ahead
woah,
This is the first time I've been in the single seats
really?
Somehow I had a feeling I'd see you here
Hey,
It's kind of sudden, but what do you usually do for dinner?
Hmmm?
If I'm by myself, I usually cook something in my apartment for dinner.
Ah, so you've been cooking for yourself lately
Yeah, I guess
Now that I'm single..
Cooking for yourself, huh..
I admire that
When you're this age, going out to eat by yourself...
feels a little miserable.
When you get to my age, it goes beyond being miserable, to the point where you don't care anymore
sorry...
I usually get off from work at 10,
and when I get home, I don't have the willpower to make anything for myself,
and the cafeteria is already closed by then, too,
and it's hard to go to a restaurant,
so,
finally, I end up going to a Ramen stand to have dinner.
Once in a while, when I'm worried about nutrition, I order vegetable ramen...
- ...and don't drink the soup! - yeah, yeah!
Why did you suddenly bring this up?
Well,
As a doctor, I should be concerned about the eating habits of single people
that's all.
Natsumi-san, you're adorable. :)
Even though I'm hearing this from someone younger
Hello?
Umm, hey,
I'm at a bar at Aoyama right now (Trendy neighborhood of Tokyo)
Do you want to come?
When you suddenly call me up like that..
So-rry for taking you to a chain restaurant last time
Huh?
Saying things like "baby" and
I can't get along with him
I didn't call you a baby!
C'mon, come.
I'll treat you out properly tonight
That's your problem isn't it?
Sorry, but,
I'm going to go eat some veggie ramen.
Ok, bye.
Is it ok?
Yeah
Wanna go?
Ramen
What the heck am I doing~?
Ah, Kaneda!
I..
Have we met before?
No
Oh, I see
As I was saying, in my experience,
As for older women,
If you say things like "As expected of someone older" and "Oh, I learn so much from you", things will go smoothly for you.
I see
But as for me,
I've always liked the younger girls
Welcome
Yo!
Wait long?
Not at all
please
He's way cooler than Kuwano-san.
And then
uh-huh
There once was someone I was thinking about marrying
yeah, yeah~
We were at the same university hospital,
We got along great, and I could really talk to him
I thought, "Ahh, this is The One"
uh-huh, uh-huh~
Then,
He proposed to me
I was so happy
I bet~!
But
When I started thinking about marriage,
I got cold feet.
Why?
You know,
I thought I wanted to be a doctor forever
yeah..
He was the kind of man who'd want to start a family right after we got married
but at that time
I was starting on a big thesis,
and then when I was finished with that, I thought I'd be a clinical pathologist at a private hospital.
Having a child at that time
and interrupting my career like that, wasn't for me.
And after I told him that,
the atmosphere kind of soured.
Was it that you two couldn't talk about it very well?
Hmm, more than that,
It was as if we couldn't talk about it at all.
In other words,
having a single accident then,
made you leave the car in the garage for good.
Exactly
Why have you left the car in the garage like that?
Huh?
If it were me,
I'd be back on the road in no time.
Because I was busy with work,
Because I didn't meet any new people,
Because there wasn't a good man around,
hmm, no, that's not quite it.
If I had gotten married then...
what kind of life would I have lived, I wonder.
Excuse me,
One more beer!
Coming up
My treat
Thanks
Here you are
Thank you~
Well, think positive!
I agree
I'm willing to accept things as they are now.
Yeah, yeah.
Just a sec
Huh?
Wonder who he's with?
I wonder...
Perhaps... by himself?
No waay..
The other person's probably in the bathroom right now
He's by himself.
Ahh, they're even changing the net.
He's ordering more!
And after I told him to cut back on the meat, too.
Let's go.
Yeah
Um, I was just wondering, but,
Did your neighbor really call me a big baby?
What are you talking about?
Huh?
What do you mean?
When I heard that I was really offended.
So to patch things up I called her up and told her to meet me at a bar last night.
You should take responsibility for your own actions.
What the heck are you doing?
Wow, even after I eat meat I can do this!
Ah, Hello!
-Eiji-kun, good day - Ah, hello hello.
Are you ok?
Ahh, don't move it.
What happened?
Well...
This is what they call an occupational hazard.
I'm seeing you around the hospital an awful lot.
Sorry
I called
Ah!
Is she... the example?
The example?
Looking after Kuwano-san
Thank you very much
It's no problem
Kuwano-san
Ah, it's ok,
I'll go pay for you
Ah-ha
Huh?
There was someone after all
What?
"That" kind of person
What kind of person?
If you have "that" kind of person,
Please have her make you nutritionally balance meals.
You really made me worry.
What is she talking about.
She's prettier than I thought!
Huh?
So she's operated on your ass, huh...
Ah, with that hand it'll be hard to cook dinner won't it?
Ah,
How about I cook for you tonight?
Huh?
To make up for not being able to go have yakiniku.
Ah..
I'm fine.
I, don't let people come to my apartment very often.
If I let a stranger into my house
I feel as if they stagnate the air.
Hmm~
Paper rock sissors!!
I won.
You get to pay for the taxi
Cheater!
Yoroshiku onegaishimasu
Welcome.
How much is this car?
4,998,000 Yen (about $40K)
Can you give me a loan for 100 years or so?
Sorry, that's impossible
Work?
There was an accident,
So I left early
Hello ^^
Sorry
for making that weird phone call last night.
Ahh..
That's ok
You didn't really call me a big baby, did you?
No, I didn't.
Ok, good.
When I took you to that chain restaurant, I felt like that suddenly put you in a bad mood, so I got a little worried.
Yeah, Actually it did put me off.
Really?
Of course.
Since you're young, you don't have much money, and there's no helping it,
But consider it from my perspective,
If, after meeting a man, I immediately let him take me to a chain restaurant.
It feels to me like you think I'm cheap.
I'll tell you this:
Me?
I'm not the kind of woman who's suited to those kinds of restaurants.
To be expected! (Cf. Kaneda's wisdom)
In other words, saying that kind thing?
I see! (Part 2 of Kaneda's wisdom)
Are you listening to me?
Yes I am.
I..
I've been in so many bad relationships, so I'm really paranoid about things like that.
If I'm not careful
I'll lose more and more of my self-worth.
Tamura-san!
Yes?
Bye, then
What did that guy say to him?
Eiji-kun.
Hello?
What's up?
Hey, Saori,
What do you think about eating at an Italian family restaurant?
I like it!
It's cheap, and delicious too!
What about it?
Nothing, I got it
Ok, bye
About the results from the last test,
I thought I told you
to copy them and hand them to me personally!
I'm Sorry
We'll be more careful next time
Ok, please do.
I wonder why I'm in such a bad mood?
Yes?
What happened?
Even though we're single, let's go eat some good food!
Are you free tonight?
Single companion... let's go wild!
Why did you have to buy all this when your hand is injured like that?
Because then I can ask you to carry it all, of course.
So he wanted ME to carry all of this crap!
Put it over there.
You can go home now.
All I get is a "Thank you"?
You volunteered to do this right?
I'm so hungry...
Ah
The two of us were just talking about making dinner at my place.
That's nice
Want to join us?
Seriously?
Do you mind?
No, if you would like...
Alright!!
...And she is?
Nakagawa General Hospital's Hayasaka-sensei
Ahh, the example?
Am I some sort of example?
Ok, well I guess I'll go then...
Otsukaresama desu!
Bye
Whaaaat?
Yeah, so when I was driving, right,
I totally drove off into a field,
I thought it was the end of my life!
Was it ok?
No, I couldn't really say after that..
Why~?
In front of a girl.. no, I can't really say it in front of girls.
Yeah?
Quick, quick, turn on channel 8!
Why?
There's a pair of sea lions on the TV acting like a married couple!
It's interesting
I see
Just watch!
ok, ok, ok
I'm turning to it now
Kawaii~
Yeah, you're right
Even sea lions are getting along like a married couple...
You're losing to a pair of sea lions!
Bye now
No way, you're like a girl~
After all,
It's better to have dinner with other people.
Nutrition's important, but dinner should be fun, too.
Yeah, but there's people who think it's more fun to eat alone, too.
But, that person, has one doesn't he?
Has what?
A pretty woman. She came to the hospital.
Ah, Sawasaki-san?
No, no, no, they just work together.
If you call them lovers, that guy'll get mad.
Oh is that so?
It's begun again.
He's definitely trying to insinuate something.
Yeah?
It's me
What do you want?
Um, your music is really loud.
Your laughter's what's loud.
"Do you want to come over..."
...Hayasaka-san is wondering
Sort of as an afterthought, right?
Well, I don't know about that..
Yep, an afterthought.
Apparently it was.
- The moment you fall in love with someone... - Yeah
- When you feel really surprised - Surprised?
For example, when you find out
that a guy you had a bad impression of turns out to have been a really nice guy
I get it, I get it!
You might fall even harder for him than if you had decided you liked him from the very beginning!
I see~
So you get more points if you manage to change someone's opinion of you from bad to good.
Note to self!
Do you want this?
Are you paying attention to what you're eating?
I made that pasta over there <3
complete with Vitamin B and calcium!
And that tofu and seaweed hamburger is Natsumi-san's specialty
It's low in calories so eat up!
It's all the same once it gets in the stomach.
He likes it... if he didn't he wouldn't be eating it.
Eating nothing but meat,
Please put something healthier on your menu.
Yes
I don't particularly care, but
Why don't you guys go back to chit-chat.
Do you really like it that much?
Hey,
What's it like the moment you fall for someone?
I don't.
that's not true~
I don't "fall" in love
I rise. Up.
Well, that's probably better than falling
He says some nice things every once in a while, doesn't he
I'm just saying it like it is.
I think it's about time for me to try love again
If I do that, maybe I'll be able to leave the garage!
What do you mean by "garage"?
Ah, well,
Natsumi-san once thought about getting married, but
She gave up because of work.
Therefore, to take the example of cars,
It's like she's parked herself in the garage.
Aa
Is it ok for me to tell him?
Yeah, I don't mind.
Ah, but if you think you'd like to get out of the garage
then it's like you can drive out anytime you want, right?
Yeah, that's right!
But your engine might be full of rust, so to speak.
What do you mean by that?
What I'm saying is that you're approaching 40 aren't you?
That's why I said that, to take the example of a car.
So a woman who's approaching 40
is like a car who's gathered a lot of rust?
It's probably more accurate to say "rotting", right?
Why are you saying such horrible things?
I'm neither rusting nor rotting.
I..
I think I'll go home.
Here, I'll put this away.
No, that's ok
I'll do that
Yeah, me, too
since I haven't done anything to help tonight
Well, good night then
Wait..
Good night, be careful!
Shouldn't you go apologize?
Um..
You look young for your age..
Go after her and apologize!
Go!
Welcome
That one's boring.
Is it?
Yeah, it's boring.
um..
about what I said..
according to common consensus..
So you don't think you did anything wrong?
I did, didn't I?
"I did, didn't I?"
Everybody was criticizing me, so I..
So, you don't think you were wrong.
Well,
Didn't you come to apologize?
Well, yeah..
sorry
I'm fine now.
This one's interesting
It is?
I guess I'll get this one.
It's boring.
She's probably really moved right now!
You'll get what you deserve!
Are you ordering?
Can I order something?
So you are concerned, aren't you?
Please don't do that all of a sudden!
What about marriage..?
