This black-bag is bad.
Yeah.
Hey.
Ah! We've been waiting for you.
What is it?
Just take a look at this.
You'll get closer to the person you like?!
The appeal of the "King Game"
Th-This is...!
Have you made any progress with your girlfriend?
Monster Girl
N-Not yet.
In that case, you definitely need the King Game.
Uh, how exactly are we supposed to play that with just the two of us?
Oh, you...
Man...
What?
Can't you read?
"You just have your friends help you."
"Girls will let their guard down when they're having fun."
That's what it says.
You have three wonderful friends.
Right?
We're the bestest of pals, right?
We'll help you get what you want, you know.
You only have to do one simple thing.
Get Yame-san's friends together,
and get Yame-san to agree to a get-together at her house.
I see. Leave it to me.
And it might be bad to ignore this, so I'll ask.
What's up with that recorder?
You see, this...
Episode 6: My First Time at Yame-san's House
I know what I said, but how should I ask Yame-san?
Junichi?
Hey, Junichi.
Wh-What is it?
Come on.
You weren't listening to me, were you?
S-Sorry. What were we talking about?
Summer vacation.
O-Oh yeah, we were talking about summer vacation!
What about summer vacation?
Ow.
You weren't listening at all!
I was saying we should go somewhere during break!
Th-This is bad.
I was thinking about how to get Yame-san to agree
and didn't hear a word she said.
Right. I'd be happy going anywhere with you.
You pick where you want to go.
Okay. We're doing a bunch of stuff this summer.
Prepare yourself.
I mean it's summer, so we have to hit the beach...
She's so cute, and she's thinking only of me.
It shouldn't be a big deal if I say we should all get together.
No, I need to make sure it's okay to go over to her house, first.
H-Hey...
Could I go over to your house after school today?
T-Today?
W-Well, if you're busy today, any other time is fine, but...
It's fine.
Seriously?
A-About today...
Well, I was hoping to invite Ranko-san, Nene, and some of my friends, too.
Would that be okay?
Wow, they totally ruined the mood.
I know, right?
Um... Yame-san?
I guess that's fine.
Huh? Why did she get mad all of a sudden?
Anyway, I'll ask Ranko.
You bring Nene-chan.
Uh... Why are you angry?
I'm not mad at all.
Anyway, I guess we'll hang out with everyone after school.
I-I don't understand girls.
Now that I think about it, it's my first time going to Yame-san's house.
And...
Junichi, you're going to come straight to my house, right?
Yeah.
Nene and my friends are going to head back home first, though.
I see.
Ranko said she's going to change first, too.
That means...
It's just the two of us until everyone gets here.
Huh?
What?
Wh-What's gotten into you?
How about you lose your virginity before everyone gets here?
Y-Yame-san...
What's up with him?
What a weirdo.
Yame-san.
What are you doing?
K-Kashii-san, what's up?
I'm about to head home.
What about you, Hashiba-kun?
Why were you wiggling about out here?
Wiggling?
Don't worry about it.
Are you waiting for someone?
Yeah, I'm waiting for Yame-san.
I see.
So are you going on a date, then?
N-Not a date.
We're all going to hang out at Yame-san's house.
That sounds fun.
Kashii-san, you're not heading home?
Hashiba-kun, I just happen to be free today.
I-I see.
I really just have nothing to do today.
You just said that.
Huh?
What's going on?
Why is she drilling me like this?
Um... Kashii-san, would you like to come, too?
If you insist.
I guess I can go.
I'm going to head home first, so send me the location on my cell.
This is my number and address.
Okay, I'll be waiting.
Wh-What was that about?
Sorry for the wait.
What's wrong?
U-Uh, well...
I invited Kashii-san, too.
Do you mind?
The more the merrier, so I guess that's fine.
Shinpei
Sure!
If you leave it to us, everyone will be happy. Buhahaha!
Dun, dun, dun.
Everyone? Is it possible that this is going to go south?!
She doesn't think of me as a guy, does she?
I'm going to get changed, so hold on a second.
Huh?
You're going to change?
You can peek if you want.
I-I wouldn't do that.
It was just a joke.
You don't have the balls.
I could peek... if I wanted.
H-Here I go.
Hi there. Come in.
You scared me!
What's wrong, Junichi?
It's nothing.
Hurry up and come in.
Pardon me...
So this is Yame-san's room...
Completely different from a guy's room.
It look like it's sparkling.
You don't have to keep looking around like that.
It's embarrassing.
Here.
Y-Yeah, thanks.
Yame-san's house clothes are pretty hot.
And with those braids, she gives off a different feeling than usual.
Her cleavage, too...
Pretty good.
You're looking way too much, Junichi.
I wasn't— Okay, I was.
I-I-I'm sorry.
Hey, Junichi.
Do you like my boobs that much?
U-Uh, well...
Um...
Wh-Where are your parents today?
They're not here today.
W-Wait! So maybe she got mad this afternoon
because I asked if everyone could come, too?!
Th-This was my chance?!
I'm an idiot!
You won't get another chance like this!
Idiot!
Jeez.
You should have just spent time with her alone!
Hey, Junichi...
Want to come closer?
What are you doing?
Jeez.
How did you get in, Ranko?
I locked the door.
I used your spare. It was in the same place it always is.
So what were you two doing?
I-I was just teasing Junichi a bit.
Besides, it's not like he has the balls to do anything, anyway.
No balls
None, none
No balls, huh?
Onii.
You can touch my boobs any time.
Nene!
Get off me!
Onii!
Oh, I'm sorry, Hashiba-kun.
I was passing through, and I kneed you.
Why is this girl here, anyway?
Oh, Honjou-senpai.
Is it strange to come and hang out at a friend's house?
Ow...
I'm so happy.
This is such a girly place, but why is there so much chaos going on?!
Onii, you woke up. You, like, totally scared me.
I'll go get it, so hold on a second.
Junichi, your friends are here.
Hi there.
What are you all wearing?!
Shinpei! Keigo!
What do you think? Cool, huh?
I have determined the best fashion to wear when hanging out with girls!
It's a miracle the police didn't stop you for questioning on the way here!
And Keigo, looks like some disreputable character!
Shut up already.
A man's gotta look like a man.
And Minoru looks the most normal... No, he doesn't!
Huh? Why?
Why does he have another recorder?
Shinpei and Keigo let you get away with that?
What the hell, guys?!
Junichi-kun, what's wrong?
What's wrong? That's obvious!
You're wrong!
That's Junichi's friends for you.
Yep.
I think you know, but these are my friends.
Shinpei.
Keigo.
Minoru.
Nice to meet you.
So what are we supposed to do now that we've all met?
There's a super fun game to play when girls and guys get together like this.
Mind if I make a suggestion?
Right.
Its name is the King Game.
I mean, it's true that I let them talk me into this,
but if we go at it like a game,
then it's possible they won't be on guard.
The King Game?
I haven't played it before, so I might want to give it a try.
You're not just trying to do something pervy?
She knows!
Does we look like we'd do something like that?
W-We wouldn't do something like that when everyone's here, Kashii-san.
I, like, totally want to try it, too.
This is my chance.
I can have my way with Onii-chan without any consequences.
If Yukana wants to try it, I guess I'll join in.
I might be able to use the game to get with Yukana.
Can this end well?
Yeah.
Let's do this.
So we've decided on the King Game...
So who's the king?!
All right!
King
It's me!
Contact.
Those faces... They're planning something.
What kind of pervy stuff are they going to do?!
Two slaps five.
Oh, they can order normal stuff—
Onii!
I'm two!
Mr. Virgin is five.
Ow...
Are you okay, Junichi?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Hey, Ranko.
You could've gone easy on him.
Sorry.
It's fine.
Well, that was normal.
Of course.
I told you, there's an order to things.
Now, just sit back and watch.
All right, everyone.
Time for round two.
What are you planning?!
Who's the king?
King
Oh, I'm the king.
Let's see...
I'll have number one introduce themselves in baby talk.
Hm?
Next is an internet broadca—
I'm number one.
O-Okay, here I go.
You're getting into this.
I want to hear your baby talk, Yui.
I'm Kashii Yui.
I'm sixteen years old.
I like nice people.
That was funny.
Yui, that was really cute.
Th-This isn't bad.
N-Next.
Start the next round, already!
Who's the king?
King
It seems that I'm the king.
I'll have number six do a sexy pose like a gravure idol.
Right here!
I'm number six!
Damn it.
I can't see from here.
Onii, what do you think of my knockout pose?
There's two watermelons in front of me.
H-Hey, no one said to take off your clothes.
Junichi, you're getting a little too worked up.
N-No, I'm not.
I'm just kidding.
It's just a game.
I'm all thirsty now.
Here you go, Nene-chan.
Have another glass.
Th-Thanks.
Have some snacks, too.
These are good.
What are you two whispering about?
The next round.
In the next round, you and Yame-san will kiss.
Us as well.
Wh-Why's that?
Look at how I'm holding these chopsticks.
The back sticks out farthest, and the others gradually stick out less.
They'll reach for the ones that stick out farthest first.
This means I can set things up so that I become the king.
I'll be able to tell who is which number, as well.
I can't really hear you, but it sounds like quite the trick.
I have an important job for you.
You be the dealer.
If the dealer ends up king, it'll look weird.
You do it.
H-Hey.
All right, Keigo.
Let's talk.
Yeah, but...
I don't know if I should kiss Yame-san during a game.
What kind of man would it make me?
And the other girls will get caught up by those idiots.
Then why don't we have the next round?
Who's the king?!
I'm the king.
One kisses the king, and three kisses two—with tongue!
K-Kiss— K-Kiss?!
I don't mind if it's Onii,
but I totally wouldn't with anyone else.
I'll punch you.
We can't do that...
Shut up!
The king's orders are absolute!
Now, numbers one, two, and three,
raise your hands.
Oh, I'm three.
Who should I kiss exactly?
King's Orders 3 kisses 2 with tongue
You did this!
I had to.
I'm not letting those girls fall into your impure hands.
Even if I have to sacrifice myself!
1 kisses the king with tongue
D-Damn you!
Kiss, kiss, kiss!
Yukana, what was he saying about the king's orders?
I think he said they were absolute.
Now then, Hashiba-kun.
It's time to man up.
Kiss, kiss, kiss!
That was fun!
It was fun hanging out with you guys.
Yes, and we all got to see quite a rare sight.
Yep.
I know I did it to save the girls,
but that was quite the price to pay for it.
Thanks for saving us.
Y-Yame-san!
You over there.
Why are you flirting?
Oh, yeah.
Wh-What is it?
We were talking about going somewhere over summer vacation, right?
It'd be fun if we all went somewhere on a trip.
Yeah.
If we all went, I'm sure it'll end up a trauma that we'll never forget—
What?! All of us?!
Sounds good, right?
That decides it.
I wanna go to the beach!
W-Well, if I adjust my schedule, I guess I could go.
I need to buy a new swimsuit.
A trip to the beach, huh?
If anyone has a sister twelve or under, could you bring them?
Quite the good idea.
Better start working out.
I want to go, but I spent all my savings on my new look.
I'm running a bit thin, too.
Then let's all get a job together!
Well, there is time before summer vacation.
We might be able to earn enough for a trip.
It might be fun to go on a trip with money we earned ourselves.
Right?
Then it's decided!
Let's all work hard!
Yeah!
Illustration: Ukami
Hey, it's Ayumi.
Kokoro here.
We haven't had an appearance in two episodes.
I know, right?
Everyone's having fun playing the King Game together, too!
I know, right?
Everyone's talking about going on a trip, but Yukacchi hasn't said anything to me!
Next time: My First Job
I know, right?
And that's all you've been saying!
I know, right?
