00:00My name's Kazu Watanabe. I'm a 27-year-old introvert working at a company called Koiwa Lease.
00:07Phew. All done. All I have to do now is...
00:12My job is to swap out rental mats. Not a lot of overtime, but there's one big pain.
00:18And that's her, Marie Nakano.
00:22Oh, you done already?
00:24Eek! W-w-what are you doing here?
00:28Well, I'm bored, so I thought I'd help you out.
00:32N-no thanks! This is my job!
00:35Wow. What's with that reaction? Hey, are your ears your weak spot or something?
00:41Wha-
00:43This place is called Lovely Angel, a small-time apparel shop.
00:47Apparently, it's got a huge following among some of the younger crowd.
00:51Hmm. Got dumped by my ex. Guess I'll just stack the new stuff.
00:58Don't want to get chewed out by the manager.
01:01And she's the shop's star flashy employee.
01:04Been here the longest, and at 21, she's also the assistant manager.
01:09Alright, I'm done here, so I'll be off.
01:13Alrighty! See ya!
01:15Ugh. She's so freaking shiny.
01:19To tell the truth, I really can't handle flashy girls.
01:23As a nerd like me, her super bright personality is just too much.
01:28Three months on this job, and I still have no idea how to deal with her.
01:32But hey, it's not like I'll see her outside of work, so whatever.
01:37But then, on my way home from work one day...
01:41Alright, time to go home and tackle that game that I haven't played yet.
01:45Huh?
01:48I feel so sick.
01:51M-Marie? I can't just ignore this.
01:55Uh, you okay?
01:58Oh, hey. Huh? Why are you here?
02:02My place is nearby. But anyway, what are you doing?
02:07Well, I kinda...
02:12She reeks of booze! How much did she drink?
02:18Was at a client dinner with the manager.
02:22Drink a bit too much.
02:25A bit? That's an understatement.
02:28How'd the manager let you go home like this?
02:31He offered to take me home, but I said no. I can handle this much.
02:35Says who?
02:37Come on, get up. Let's get you home. What's your address?
02:42Nah, can't go home. So let me crash at your place?
02:47No way that's happening.
02:49But, even if you say that...
02:55Don't just fall asleep here! Ah, jeez. No choice, huh?
03:03Please, walk by yourself.
03:07Ugh, why am I doing this for a flashy girl?
03:12Shoot! My foot!
03:18Ow! S-sorry. Are you okay?
03:22Huh? Kazu? Where are we?
03:28You're finally awake. So, uh, actually...
03:33Oh, I get it. Looks like you're more proactive than you look.
03:39Huh?
03:41You're such a bad guy, taking advantage of me being out like this.
03:45What? You're the one who wanted to crash here!
03:49Can't hold it in anymore! So here's fine, right?
03:52No way! You drunk mess!
03:56And the next morning...
03:58I... am so... so sorry!
04:03Seriously, you were a handful, you know?
04:06You just started changing into my clothes and then crashed right away.
04:11Ugh, I can't believe I did that. So embarrassing!
04:16Looks like she remembers some of it.
04:19Anyway, I gotta head to work, so make sure you leave, okay?
04:24Okay, got it!
04:26Just drop the key in the mailbox. Alright then.
04:30Okay! Have a nice day!
04:32Yeah, thanks.
04:35Having to work with a flashy girl waving me off feels so weird.
04:40Well, this isn't gonna happen again, so...
04:43But when I got home from work...
04:46Hey!
04:48There's more of them?!
04:50If I remember right, that's Ann Suzuki and Harukato from the same shop.
04:56Marie said they're all the same age and really tight.
05:00Marie! What's going on?!
05:03What?
05:04Why are you still here?! You promised you'd leave this morning!
05:09Well, I was gonna leave, but then I started and I couldn't stop.
05:14Started what?
05:16Your room was pretty messy, right?
05:18I had the day off, so I figured I'd clean up as a thank you. Pretty awesome, huh?
05:23Now that you mention it, the place is spotless.
05:27I might not look like that kind of type, but I'm great at cleaning and cooking.
05:33Wow, impressive.
05:35Oh wait, no! Explain to me what's going on!
05:39I'll do the honors. This gorgeous Ann will explain.
05:44Not fair. I wanted to explain.
05:48Guys, you're too close!
05:51Hey! I'm the one who should explain.
05:55So, I told them over the phone that I crashed at your place, and then these two...
06:01I mean, of course. We couldn't miss a chance like this.
06:06So, we decided to drop by after work.
06:09You can't just turn my place into your hangout spot!
06:13We didn't mean any harm.
06:15We just wanted to say thank you properly. Here, this is for you.
06:21Oh, well, thanks.
06:23Huh? They're flashy, but they're pretty considerate.
06:28Anyway, since we're all here, let's drink!
06:33I'll pour for you.
06:35Wha- you three are too close!
06:38Aww, are you nervous? So cute.
06:44Their things are touching my body! Calm down, they're flashy girls, you know?
06:51From then on, they started coming over one by one.
06:56Hey, I'm here!
06:58You can't just show up like that.
07:00But your place is so close to the shop. It's like a perfect break spot.
07:06That's such a lame reason!
07:08Come on, I'll make dinner for you. Bet you haven't eaten yet.
07:13Ugh.
07:15One hour later.
07:17Wow, did you make all this?
07:19Told ya, I'm good at this stuff.
07:22I'm really bad at this, so honestly, I respect it.
07:26Forget that, eat up, it's really good. Here comes the plane!
07:31What? N-no, I'm good.
07:34Don't be shy, come on!
07:37Ugh, u-uh...
07:40Well? Tasty, right?
07:43Flashy girls' home cooking is awesome!
07:48On another day.
07:50You must be tired from work. This gorgeous awn will pamper you.
07:56Wha- no, really, I'm fine!
07:59Don't be shy. I'm pretty good with my hands, you know.
08:03That makes me even more nervous!
08:06How's that? Feels good, right?
08:10Ugh, this is...
08:12Don't hold back, let it out!
08:15N-no, I won't. Don't say weird stuff.
08:19Still can't get used to how close she is.
08:22But I'm not as nervous as before. Is it cause it's a massage?
08:28Another day.
08:30Let's play a game! Wanna battle?
08:33S-sure, but this position is...
08:37This feels more comfy. If I win, I get a reward.
08:42Whoa, you can't just decide that!
08:45And the result?
08:47I win!
08:48Ugh, losing to a flashy girl in a game...
08:52As promised, I get my reward. Pet my head.
08:57Wha- your head?
08:59Hurry, pet me!
09:01N-no way, that's just...
09:04Then I'll do it myself. There.
09:07Hey, wait!
09:09You petting my head feels good.
09:13Ugh, it's like petting a kitten. Maybe flashy girls aren't that scary?
09:20Finally found you!
09:22Thought you were gone, but here you are!
09:24Not fair, sneaking off.
09:27Whoa, both of you?
09:29It'll battle. Mercy is a weakness.
09:33Oh, so you're all that, huh?
09:36Then no holding back from me either.
09:39Not fair if it's just Haru. Pet me too.
09:43I want a reward too.
09:46Kazu's already mine.
09:48Eek, everyone calm down!
09:51I take it back, I can't handle these flashy girls!
09:57A month of this craziness later, after the usual mad exchange...
10:02Marie, is the manager in today? I need to talk about my contract.
10:07Oh? The manager's usually in the back, busy with paperwork.
10:11I see.
10:13I can pass on the message like always if you want.
10:16Yeah, please do.
10:18I wonder what's the manager like? I've never met this person.
10:23Alright, I'm off.
10:25See ya! I'll come visit again.
10:28Hey! No fair. I'll come too.
10:32Next time I'll pamper you even more.
10:35Then I'll do something even better.
10:38I appreciate the thought, but I'm good.
10:42Lately, I can talk to them normally. So different from before.
10:47Huh?
10:48Hmm...
10:50Who's that guy? Is he peeking into the shop?
10:53Nah, must be something else.
10:58And still, the house is as lively as ever.
11:01I'm home! Wait, what are you guys doing?
11:05Oh hey Kazu! We started without you.
11:08That's fine, but your clothes! Put on some clothes, please!
11:13Huh? We are wearing clothes.
11:16We're having a pajama party today!
11:19Then at least wear pajamas!
11:23Come on! Stop being mad and have a drink, Kazu!
11:27This gorgeous Ann will pour it for ya!
11:31Hey! You haven't had dinner yet, right? I'll make whatever you want!
11:36Forget that! Let's play a game! Another match!
11:40Whoa! One thing at a time! Jeez!
11:44I've totally gotten used to this crazy life.
11:47Maybe I'm actually having fun?
11:49But then, a few days later, I saw something insane.
11:54On my way to a meeting...
11:56No way!
11:58What the... So I'm not the only guy who's being played with.
12:03I knew I couldn't trust these flashy girls.
12:07The next day...
12:09Dinner will be ready soon!
12:11I'm helping out today!
12:13Can't let Marie take all the credits, huh?
12:17Yeah, whatever. I don't really care.
12:20Um, what's wrong, Kazu?
12:23Your face looks scary.
12:26Did we do something to make you mad?
12:29Why am I so irritated?
12:32It's not like I'm in a relationship with them!
12:35More importantly, how long are you planning to stay here?
12:39I never said you could use this place as a hangout, and still...
12:44Sorry. I guess we were a bother.
12:48We'll stop coming over then.
12:51We'll leave.
12:53See you at the shop.
12:55I'd be happy if you said hi when you see me.
12:58Oh. No, this is for the best.
13:02This whole thing that's been going on was crazy anyway.
13:05No matter how much I tried to convince myself,
13:08I couldn't shake the gloomy feeling.
13:11The next day was a disaster.
13:13At work, I made a bunch of stupid mistakes.
13:16I got home late at night.
13:18No one's here. Of course not.
13:21Alright, let's see if there's anything to eat.
13:25Wait, this is what they made yesterday.
13:28What am I doing? I need to apologize to them tomorrow!
13:34And the next day, when I stopped by Lovely Angel for the usual mad exchange.
13:39What's going on? The shop sounds noisy.
13:43I-I love you! Please go out with me!
13:47Uh, this isn't that kind of shop, you know.
13:50I swear I'll make you happy! I'm the only one who can! So...
13:55Hey, back off! If you don't stop, I'm calling for help!
13:59That guy! He was hanging around the store before!
14:03Hey, cut it out! You're bothering the staff!
14:07Kazu!
14:08Huh? Shut up! Who are you? Get lost! I'm in the middle of something!
14:15Hey, what do you think you're doing?
14:19This gorgeous Anne won't let this slide.
14:23Stop causing trouble and leave!
14:26Anne, Haru...
14:28Weren't you two supposed to be working in the back?
14:31Yeah, but like, we can't just sit back and do nothing.
14:35We won't let anyone bother Marie and Kazu.
14:40What is wrong with you guys? Do the staff here get to talk back to customers? The customer is king!
14:47No way! Just because you're a customer doesn't make you a king! Stop hassling my friends!
14:55Shut up! Don't tell me what to do! I fell in love with her. I've spent so much money here! Screw this place! I'm gonna wreck it!
15:04I gotta protect them at least! I can't show them I'm a loser again!
15:11Oh dear, that's a bit of a problem, huh?
15:15Eek! What's up with this hideous man or a woman?
15:20Huh? Who are you calling hideous, huh? Say it again!
15:25Eek! Sorry!
15:29Well, on second thought, you've got a cute face, dear.
15:35Come on, let's go have a little chat in the back, shall we?
15:39No! Please no! Please spare me!
15:44Alrighty then, enjoy yourselves! Ciao!
15:49Wait a minute, I think I've seen that person before.
15:53Uh, just to ask, that person just now was...
15:56Oh yeah, that's our manager.
16:00Pretty hot, right? Not as hot as me, though.
16:04I like the manager. Such a nice person.
16:09Haha, I see. Quite a character.
16:13Anyway, thanks for saving us.
16:17Yeah, you were pretty cool.
16:20Now that's my Kazu.
16:22Nah, I didn't do anything. The manager did all the job.
16:27And, um, I should have said this earlier, but sorry about the other day.
16:33Wait! Why are you the one apologizing?
16:37Don't bow.
16:39Yeah, we were the ones causing trouble.
16:42No, it wasn't like that! I just lashed out at you guys.
16:47What do you mean?
16:48Truth is, I saw you all with some guy walking together.
16:56That's what it was about? My stomach hurts from laughing.
17:03Kazu, you're so funny.
17:07Hey, why are you laughing? I'm being serious here.
17:12That was the manager.
17:14Yeah, well, it's hard to tell. I feel you.
17:19What? No way! The vibe was completely different.
17:23The manager separates work and personal life.
17:27During business talks, he wears a wig and acts like a cool dude.
17:31He doesn't need to. He can be himself, but he does.
17:34Yeah, it is kind of funny, though.
17:37So that's what it was.
17:40So, you getting jealous means...
17:44You're into us?
17:46If that's the case, I'm happy.
17:49Huh? Why?
17:51Because we like you, Kazu. We've always, like always...
17:57Liked you.
17:59What? Why?
18:02Remember when you saved us from that creepy customer before?
18:06Oh yeah, that happened.
18:09You fed stray cats behind the store. I love kind people.
18:14They saw that?
18:16When I wore revealing clothes, you were the only one who scolded me.
18:20Told me to take care of myself. No one's ever done that for me before.
18:24I just said that because it was too distracting.
18:28Actually, the reason why we were staying at your place isn't because our shop was close to your place, but...
18:35We were competing to see who could win you over.
18:39What? Seriously?
18:42Yeah, we were totally serious about it.
18:46I didn't notice at all.
18:48You're dense, Kazu.
18:50Ugh, I can't argue with that.
18:54After that, thanks to the manager's talk with the creep, the issue was resolved.
18:59And thanks to the girls, my aversion to flashy girls was completely gone.
19:04Somehow, work feels more enjoyable now.
19:08I'm really grateful to them. But while I was thinking that...
19:12So, have you decided who you're gonna choose?
19:16Of course, it's gotta be this gorgeous one, right?
19:22It's obviously me.
19:25Whoa, calm down! I appreciate all of you, but choosing one is...
19:31Then, let's just share you!
19:34Oh, I'm down for that.
19:37I think that's best.
19:40What?
19:42Looks like I still don't understand these girls at all.
19:45Flashy girls are really something else.
