Kyoto, 1864
This is the place. This is where those criminals are hiding.
The Shinsengumi have arrived!
Even if it costs me my life, I will protect Yukimura....
I will definitely protect her!
This is something the Shinsengumi must do.
Chizuru. I'm going to rescue Chizuru!
I absolutely will. I will get you safely out of here!
If we existed in some other time different that this one...
would our fates be any different?
Any bastard who dares harm Chizuru,
don't care who the hell ya are, we will not forgive you!
My precious Chizuru-chan. Yes. That's why... that's why...
Chizuru-chan, let me protect you.
Take Chizuru-chan out of here first.
I know!
Go!
­
Watch out!
7 days until the Cultural Fair!
The inside of the cafe will be decorated. Let everyone confer on how they're going to do it,
but make it a little more feminine.
Like how a guy thinks a girl's room should look like?
I'm sure there are differences of opinion on that topic between guys and girls.
So tomorrow let's confirm the idea one more time.
Oh, one more thing. For the maid costume, let's go with this.
It's good! It's good!
So we don't upset members of the Disciplinary Committee I changed it up a little bit.
I can make this.
Then, we leave it to you. If one for us made it, it would look ugly.
This is also really ugly.
I can also make everyone else's costumes.
Even though I don't think there's anything wrong with this costume design,
but just to be safe, we should run this by the Disciplinary Committee advisor, Hijikata-san.
Thank you very much.

Yukimura
Here are your snacks.
Thank you, Chizuru-chan.
Sorry to put you through the trouble.
Don't worry about it. I haven't seen you two in such a long time, Sen, Kosuzu. I'm really happy!
How's life at a private academy?
Yeah.
The teachers and students really look after me.
But getting back to the point, Chizuru-chan.
Hm?
Doesn't Ibuki-kun attend Hakuo Academy?
Yes.
He's in my class.
Really? Then, do you have his picture?
Picture?
Ah! I have a group photo of our class.
This.
Yeah. This is Ibuki-kun.
This is your teacher?
He's handsome!
Chizuru-chan, let me meet this Ibuki-kun next time.
We got picked on by this group of delinquents a while back.
And then this Ibuki-kun who coincidentally was passing by, chased them away.
This Ibuki-kun?
Although his knees were shaking a lot.
That's how courageous he was!
Chizuru-chan, please.
If this continues, I will really lose my mind.
But there's no way I can ask this now.
Shinpachi-san?
I...
I'm regretting becoming a teacher for the first time.
What are you suddenly saying?
It's been decided that our class would be in charge of the haunted house.
Oh you always hated it, huh?
But normally people wouldn't regret becoming a teacher over something like that, right?
Worries are something
that make other people think 'Just that?'.
Oh!
That's mine.
How about you? Being alone in a place like this.
What?
Heisuke, you have worries too?
I need to go to the market to buy the materials.
But wait, they sell plastic boards though? Maybe?
My wife.
Kazama-senpai.
We haven't met since we ate together, my wife.
Ate together?
Oh school lunch?
I heard you class is in charge of the maid cafe.
Yeah, it is.
So of course you will be dressing up as a maid, right?
Yes, it seems so.
Then, I will make it for you.
What?
Be happy.
Let me give one to you. One worthy of my family name that my bride will inherit, the most exquisite maid uniform.
Um...
In exchange,
you may only show it to me.
Understand?
Kazama.
Don't wander around without telling us.
We had to look for you.
You cannot just neglect your student council duties.
Get out of my way.
If I hear that my wife will be a maid,
as her husband, I can't just sit still.
Um.
I'm happy to hear your offer, but－
That's what I thought!
Chizuru will be a maid created by me,
just for me.
I can't.
What?
It's something our class is in charge of,
so I can't
show only you.
I'm sorry.
No way...
Too bad, Kazama.
Let's go back, Kazama-sama.
Yukimura.
Harada-sensei.
I won't really call it a worry, but
I just don't get it.
Like you don't understand what you don't understand, huh?
Something like that.
At times like that,
just stop thinking.
Stop?
You're the impulsive type, not the type that thinks.
When you're irritated. The more you think, the more confused and frustrated you become.
And then, you think of all the bad stuff and become even more frustrated.
It's just like that.
Well...
I guess so.
Ow!
I don't know the details but just do what you think is right.
For me, my love for teaching is bigger than my fear of ghosts.
I'm gonna take this.
Sure.
I guess that means there's no point of getting worried.

Is Harada not here?
Well. If you're looking for Harada-sensei,
he said he had to step out for a bit.
He just left in fact. Why, what's up?
Nothing really. I just wanted to discuss the modifications to the maid cafe uniform.
I heard Harada-sensei's class wanted to present a maid cafe stand.
If Yukimura-san wears a maid uniform
I'm sure she'll look very cute.
Ito-san, it seems the program is almost ready.
Well. Before I am an art teacher I am an artist.
No.
I am an artist. I would never do anything halfway.
I recall last year someone couldn't make it in time and completely missed the Hakuo festival...
Who was that?
Forgive me, Hijikata-san!
This year I, Ito Kashitarou, will absolutely,
with complete devotion,
wholeheartedly complete it.
Please wait a bit longer, sir!
Thank you very much for helping me.
It's nothing. But seriously, you bought a lot of stuff.
Is it all related to the maid uniform?
No. The bags you're holding have to do with the interior decorations.
Ibuki-kun will come with me to get the remaining table settings and related paraphernalia.
I see.
I guess I'll take these back to school. You can go ahead and go home.
Is that ok?
Ah, see you,
Ouch!
Are you alright?
Oh, whoa!
­
Are you alright?
Ouch!
I'll help you clean up this side.
There's a lot that fell out from here,
What is this? Why is my heart pounding?
What's with this uneasy feeling?
Uneasy... uneasy...
[ Student Council room ]
My bride,
what is it that I can give you?
What kind of surprise can I give you?
You should give up, Kazama.
Don't blame me for being frank. Giving someone a gift as a bribe
to win over their affections is rather abject behavior.
Oh, Harada. I've been waiting.
Hijikata-san.
What's with all the stuff?
These are our class' maid cafe decorations. I went shopping with Yukimura.
With Yukimura?
What's with that reaction?
What? Idiot. What reaction?
Let's head over there and talk.
As the one responsible for our homeroom class, I accompanied her so she wouldn't be molested by unsavory people.
That's why I went.
If there are guys who would actually do that, that would be unforgivable.
Are you saying that purely from an educational administrator's point of view?
Shut up! What are you implying?
Yukimura.
Let's just go home. We're already here, what are you talking about?
I didn't help you for that reason.
Hey! Wait up! That's fine.
We can just go shopping for the rest of the tableware for the maid cafe.
Chizuru-chan!
Hey, properly introduce yourself.
Kosuzu-chan. Let me introduce him to you.
This is my classmate, Ibuki-kun.
H-Hey.
I'm Suzuka Kosuzu.
I'm her older sister, Suzuka Sen. It's nice to meet you.
H-Hi.
Did you know? The ocean sunfish's weakness is right here.
You don't say? You know so many things!
And this is not something I learned in biology class. It's something I heard from my art teacher!
Those two are getting along splendidly.
For sure. Ibuki-kun and Kosuzu-chan seem really happy together. That's good.
- And what about you, Chizuru-chan? - Eh?
Isn't it about time you found a guy you could also walk down the street with like this?
No. I haven't even thought about something like that.
What the hell, you guys?
Ibuki-kun?
Was it this little shit that stuck his nose where it didn't belong?
Yup, that's him.
How's it going, Your Highness? We've been lookin'g for you.
W-What the hell?
Let's not cause a ruckus, silly!
Who you calling silly, silly?
Move aside!
Hey!
What?
Ryunosuke!
What's wrong?
What up, wench?
Pl-Please stop hitting him.
Move aside.
I said move!
What the hell?
Go find help!
Hurry!
Where do you think you're going?!
Let them go.
I like you.
Hey!
Let go of me! Let go!
Hey! I said let go!
It's him!
Ibuki-kun!
Are you alright?
I...
Shit.
What happened? Ibuki?
Saito-senpai.
- Yukimura? - Yes!
Where's Ryunosuke?
Over there!
Hurry up.
Oh, Harada. What's up?
Yukimura's gotten tangled up with a group of unsavory people.
You said it before, right, those kinds of bastards that can't be forgiven.
Are you okay?
Ryunosuke!
Harada-sensei. I'm sorry.
Where did those bastards take Yukimura?
Saito-senpai is currently pursuing them.
