Why the hell are you empty?!
Taking it out on the shampoo won’t get you anywhere.
She’s right! Please get a grip.
Why are you so far away?!
Busted!
It-it just worked out that way.
R-r-r-right! What a coincidence!
One Week Ago
Kuriyama-san could you stand there for a moment?
L-like this?
A petite demure damsel in glasses.
“Shocking Pink”
All righty. I could see how you might be the type
that’s a hit with boring guys who can’t express their feelings.
What are you implying?
As your senpai I’d like to help you make your high school debut.
During that festival I thought to myself “She could blossom!”
Why don’t we start by taking off your glasses?
Wait!
That’s inviolable territory that mankind must never sully!
Akkey you should put more faith in Mitsuki.
No I’m not backing down on this one!
A girl without glasses is like a shortcake without strawberries!
Really? If you’re comparing girls to shortcakes the importance of
the strawberries should go to whether or not she’s a little sister.
Could you drop that disturbing conversation already?
Why’d you take them off?!
Darn it! Kuriyama-san wear these!
Akkey you’re freaking the ladies out.
So are you.
Now putting that aside
what’s with those bonsai?
Kuriyama-san would you happen to know anything about them?
B-b-bonsai?
The fact that you’re wiping your glasses proves you’re guilty.
You’re so unpleasant!
You’re so unpleasant!
Impressive! I had no idea you were into bonsai.
You have to handle them with care!
It’s taken several 10000 yen bills to get it that big!
Be gentle! Gentle!
S-several?!
I think I know why you’re always hurting for money...
And why your stomach is always growling.
B-but that all comes to an end today!
I got it back!
At last!
Shindou Photo Studio
A profitable youmu?
Right. My rent is due pretty soon.
I have to come up with the money within just a few days.
You shouldn’t go on about money all the time.
It will create dirty photos.
How much for that one?
Let me think...
You’re acting more than a little dirty over there!
This is the one!
A fruit-type youmu...
Yep! Its body is about three meters wide in diameter.
Apparently it doesn’t really attack people.
And to make matters all the more convenient
it’s located on the roof of your school.
Really?
Th-the reward...?
It depends on certain conditions
but it wouldn’t go for less than 500000 yen.
F-five-hundred thousand?!
By now I bet Nino is already on her way to defeat it.
After all it’s a rather delicious youmu.
Or so you’d think but this one has quite a nasty problem.
Ayaka-san you did that on purpose!
That must be it...
That’s its eye... All righty!
Wait Kuriyama-san!
Uh...
How unpleasant!
That’s my line!
I could have taken it out if you had kept your mouth shut!
My voice had nothing to do with it!
If it senses danger
that youmu dowses the threat in a noxious smelling liquid.
You were screwed one way or the other.
Nasty!
Got it.
In other words I need to defeat the youmu before
it notices me right?
Can you?
I can!
That was great!
The great thing about bespectacled girls are their various gestures!
Naturally the way they wipe their glasses steals my heart
but so does the way they lift up
their glasses like what you did just now!
Or when they’re tired and they take off their glasses
rub their nose like this for a second and then put their glasses back on.
That’s on a class all of its own!
Huh?
It won’t notice me if I’m up here!
You’re mine!
Oh crap!
I figured!
I failed!
I wondered if you were kinda stupid back there.
Something smells bad doesn’t it?
You’re right! What is that?
Senpai please try to be more careful.
Hey!
What?
You know good and well what!
Are you trying to dump the blame onto me?
Not really. I simply said “Please try to be more careful.”
Be real here!
And why do you smell so horrible?
Did you make sure to wash thoroughly?
I most certainly did!
It’s just... I was able to change my clothes
but my underwear...
Are you serious?
I couldn’t help it! I’m not built like a boy!
Even if I went commando
I couldn’t possibly go around without proper upper support...
You couldn’t go without...
I couldn’t...
Okay so they wouldn’t jiggle if I went without!
The only way to describe my figure is “cute” “underdeveloped” or “dainty.”
And why the heck do they have to be graded A B C and D?!
I think that those grades have hurt a whole bunch of people.
Okay I get it! I’m sorry!
What do you guys think?!
You’ll only get bashed for posting things when you’re upset.
Isn’t tomorrow Sunday?
I swear I’ll get it tomorrow...
You’re going to try again?
You know it!
Laundry doesn’t pay for itself.
Shindou Photo Studio
What’s with this?
That’s all I have available at the moment.
You’re welcome to wear that home.
It isn’t as embarrassing as your PE uniform is it?
But these are pajamas!
Right exactly.
Did you learn anything?
What’s with that outfit? Are you spending the night?
Please don’t go there.
Now then what did you learn about the youmu?
The common way of dealing with this type is to divert its
attentionand defeat it while its guard is down.
Makes sense.
Unfortunately there is a problem with that whole distraction part.
Apparently it’s not your everyday youmu.
Okay?
How should I say this?
It’s a bit unusual for a youmu.
Kinda weird even.
It seems to have a thing for human girls.
In other words it’s a perv!
A-a perv?!
Bluntly put yes.
So if we could get a human girl to draw its attention
while another person is attacking it...
Not happening.
Mitsuki it’s for your cute underclassman!
That has nothing to do with this! And couldn’t you use Ai?
I just so happen to be a youmu.
Exactly! Mitsuki you’re our only hope!
Please! For the sake of the Literary Club’s bonsai!
You brought those into our clubroom without consulting me.
Please Mitsuki!
What is that?!
My uniform.
It’s drenched in the youmu’s bodily fluids.
Knock that off!
Please help me Mitsuki-senpai!
Not you too Kuriyama-san!
Please Mitsuki!
Mitsuki-senpai!
It’s leaking! It’s leaking! It-it’s leaking Mitsuki-senpai!
It’s leaking! It’s leaking! It-it’s leaking!
It’s leaking! That goo is leaking!
Next Day: Sunday
Can’t I lock it in a Cage and call it a day?
No. It’s highly cautious so it’d explode the moment you tried.
Ai-chan sorry we’re making you help us out.
It’s fine! Aya-chan told me to lend you a hand.
Excuse me... Mitsuki-senpai shouldn’t you be the one to draw its attention...?
I’m cool with leaving.
Ah fine!
Kuriyama-san give it your best shot!
All right...
Um excuse me! Hello!
Uh I’m not here to attack you.
Lookie. I’m not holding anything. See?
So ummm...
It’s ogling! It’s ogling! Kuriyama-san!
Right!
Ummm...
It likes her!
It’s said that each time its eye changes color
the less guarded it becomes!
Great! Keep it up.
I think I’ve waited long enough.
Go Yakiimo!
Y-Yakiimo?!
It ate too much!
What a disaster...
Same Day: Sunday
I see.
So it hit Mitsuki with a different liquid from what it’s used in the past.
Right! Put simply it’s like how pollen gets shot toward a pistil.
It marked its scent on her
so that it wouldn’t lose track of where she was.
The person who has been marked is oblivious to the smell!
But no matter many times I bathe or change my clothes
I’m going to reek to everyone around me right?
Right. The stench will disappear if you defeat the youmu
but that’s the only way to make it go away.
I’m sorry about this...
I think I finally understand why that youmu is worth so much.
Same here.
Wouldn’t it be better if you gradually earned
your money instead of going for big risky jobs?
Yep. And I bet the landlord would have
waited for me to come up with the rent if I asked.
Stop right there!
Why do I get the feeling that you’re backing out?
Can you blame us?
That youmu is way stronger than it--
You dragged me into this.
Stop it! Are you trying to kill me?
What will happen to me? I’ve got school tomorrow.
Mitsuki!
Are you all right?
Big Brother!
You okay?
And here this was the first
text my little sister has sent me in roughly a year...
This is horrible!
She’s your precious little sister isn’t she? Could you help her out?
That stench...
Was the youmu that attacked Mitsuki shaped like a fruit?
You’ve heard of it?
Yeah. Izumi’s told me about it.
Exodus!
The air tastes good!
We should have done this from the start!
Ai-chan where did that come from?
What is this? Ai-chan where did that come from?
A mysterious ball. Ai-chan where did that come from?
A mysterious ball. Isn’t that ball meant for playing on top of the water?
Isn’t that ball meant for playing on top of the water?
Have you come up with a way to defeat that youmu?
Aya-chan just so happened to have one.
It’s true that the youmu takes a strong interest in the ladies
but it’s also interested in one other thing.
Mitsuki...!
Wh-what is it?
It’s kinda nice having my little sister locked up like this.
You feel that way too?
I was just thinking the exact same thing!
I thought that a bespectacled beauty would be
surprisingly hot in one of these!
Oh what an image!
She’d have to be a little sister but that’s not bad!
I never expected to land such a great find today!
We’re of a like mind today.
Yeah it’s not half bad!
Indeed it’s not half bad!
Fresh air tastes good!
That stinks! Er I mean that hurt!
Pee yew!
Nasty!
Where’s that smell coming from?
Do you think we should report it?
My little sister has committed a criminal offense.
Forget about that!
Hurry up and teach me how to defeat that youmu!
Songs?
Yeah. In short it’s said to react strongly if a person sings at
a set rhythm \and moves their body to match their
voice within its range of vision.
In other words we need to sing and dance in front of the youmu?
Just what I would expect from Ayaka Shindou’s little sister!
You’re a clever cookie.
Thank you very much.
What an adorable gesture!
She’d be a perfect little sister if she weren’t a youmu!
Did your sister complex switch flip on?
I wish I had thought of this sooner.
You surrounded yourself in a Cage?
So? Do you know what the song is?
Yep!
This is the song that worked the last time someone defeated it.
I’d like you two to listen to it.
I-I have to sing and dance to this...?
Well? Isn’t it a nice song?
Why are you making us listen to a song YOU like?
Hold your horses! I assure you that this was
officially acknowledged as the song used when it was defeated last time!
Where was it officially acknowledged?
It’s sickeningly sweet... and kinda embarrassing...
I might actually like it.
According to the data I found
the youmu’s eyes gave off a pale light when it listened to this song.
It completely dropped its guard
allowing the Warrior to defeat it as easily as twisting a baby’s hand.
But I don’t really...
We’re doing it.
We’re doing this.
Okay.
Well let’s go for it!
R-right!
I’m turning it on!
Hiromi I just remembered something.
What is it?
If I remember right Kuriyama-san told me that she’s a horrible singer.
Akkey...
It’s too late.
T-tenohira ni ts-tsu-tsuka-- Th-the promise caught in-in-in
Most unpleasant.
That’s my line!
So what now? It’s gonna be dark soon!
Isn’t that obvious?
After our showers we’re going to give it another shot!
I don’t want to.
Hey! Do you realize what you’re saying?!
I’ve had enough of this stench!
Hey! Kuriyama-san!
I mean it’s just so rancid.
It doesn’t even make sense anymore!
There’s nothing but non-stop stench!
I’m tired of stinking to high heavens!
It’s just too putrid!
Then what will happen to me?
Please keep your distance!
You stink!
Why you...
It’s true...
It may be true that we stink but I won’t give up!
Big Brother!
That youmu has humiliated the Nase family to no end!
I cannot afford to keep quiet and do nothing.
I will defeat it!
Come what may I will never forget the grudge I bear against it!
I feel the exact same way.
Why must I get stinky?!
I’ve never... ever been so pissed over getting this stinky.
I swear that I will defeat that youmu!
Senpai...!
I’m sorry.
Kuriyama-san
let’s defeat that youmu together.
I’ll be there to cheer you on!
Okay!
Come on!
O-okay!
With that having been said let’s train like mad!
Okay!
One Week Later
You’re set and ready to go!
W-will this actually work?
Believe that it will!
We didn’t dedicate this past week to training for nothing.
That’s right! We worked so hard. We’ll pull it off!
Yeah we will! We can do it!
I swear by my name as a Spirit World Warrior that we will make this work!
Everyone please break a leg!
Guys let’s do it!
Yeah!
I’m turning on the music!
It’ll work out. We can do it! I’m sure we can!
Knowing us we can pull it off. That’s right. We are...
idols!
Sweet! It’s working.
Yeah it’s working!
Its full attention is on them! What a reaction!
Amazing! The youmu’s eye is glued to them.
A hard week’s worth of effort!
We can’t let it go to waste!
Please! This is...
our...
ultimate weapon!
We did it!
Success! We pulled it off!
Now... we can defeat that youmu.
So who’s gonna defeat it?
The End
Why the hell are you empty?!
I see. Kuriyama-san said that...?
More or less.
She wants to hurry and settle things for Sakura.
“Color of Clouds”
Did something happen?
Sakura!
I should die by your hands...
or so I had thought.
