01x13 - The Masterful Cat Is Depressed Tomorrow As Well

[bunniefuu]

You're so cute, Dia!

You look perfect in that outfit!

Dia is the kitten
Chief Orizuka's niece and Yukichi found.

For this kitten!

I have to take a photo of this!

I bet we'll get even more followers.

Humph.

HUMPH

DIA'S IDEAL

Dia!

But you looked so good in it!

You didn't like it?

Aw, after all the time I spent making it...

It's all torn up. Can I still patch it up?

STARES

DIA'S IDEAL

Humph.

CHOMP

What's the matter?
What are you doing, Dia?

You want to play with the apron?

You like it more than the mouse toy, huh?

STANDS

Dia, are you trying to stand on two legs?

Hold on. I'll record this.

Look, everyone!
Dia's practicing how to stand again!

WOBBLY

WALKING...

DIA'S GOAL, SHAKY

HUMPH

D... Dia just took a step!

You're a genius!

Maybe we'll even get to be on TV!

I'm so glad I caught that on camera!

You're amazing, Dia!

Senpai, do you know this cat?

What cat?

It's really popular
on social media right now.

The cat that can stand on two legs.

Apparently, this cat's been
learning how to walk recently.

You're right.
He's trying really hard to walk.

That's impressive.

Isn't he adorable?

Thank goodness
she wasn't talking about Yukichi.

I wonder if they'll release a photo album.

There are surprisingly a lot of cats
that can walk on two legs...

I had no idea...

Here you go, Yuki.

A souvenir from the UMYU-Sea show.

Why is the Sea Bunny
your favorite, Yukichi?

Is it because she's the center?

I'm going to make something...

that you can make
with your little hands, too.

The greatest food on earth!

Oh, right.
Do you want to watch a video of the show?

I recorded the live performance.

Hi, kids!

Now that we're here
you have nothing to worry about!

UMYU-Sea!

-Sorry. I was too loud.
-While Aoi stops the aliens,

let's recharge!

I'm going to make

the greatest power food on earth!

Rice ba*ls!

You really like rice ba*ls, Sea Bunny.

Is it because
you two have the same colors?

That's not it!

Rice ba*ls have a lot of stuff!

A lot of what? Filling?

No. It's packed with lots of feelings!

Feelings that support you.

YUKICHI'S HOME

"Don't give up! I'm right by your side!"

Feelings like that.

If you have little hands,

just put the rice into a cup and shake it.

Put all those feelings into the rice ball.

Let's shake!

Rice ba*ls sure are yummy, aren't they?

I like them with bonito flakes.

Shape them... You can do it!

Shape them...

See you!

Thank you.

Thank you for riding with us.

Morning, Yukichi.

Where's that thing?

That's the thing. Thanks.

Yukichi, put on the thing from yesterday...

What was it called again?

Thank you. That's just what I wanted.

Yukichi, about that thing...

Can you get me that thing?

That's it.

Yukichi.

Do you ever feel like

you lose the ability to talk
after a long holiday?

How long has it been
since you've had a conversation?

For some reason,
I can't seem to remember words...

Want to join a mixer together?

This isn't a good sign.

Before you realize it,
you forget even more things.

Eventually, you might not
even be able to utter a single sound.

I think you're exaggerating.

It's not as if I haven't talked at all...

You live alone. Whoever will you talk to?

It's your cat, isn't it?
You've been talking to your cat, right?

That's normal, isn't it?

This is bad.

Next, you'll be talking to your TV.

Rude! I don't talk to myself!

-Right? And then...
-One-sided conversation.

I might have been talking to myself...

You most certainly have!

If you're not careful,
you'll go senile even at this young age!

The rapid train
is approaching the station.

I think some people talk to AI assistants

on smartphones
to practice their conversational skills.

Give it a try.

Okay.

Hey, Siro!

Yes.

Um...

Sorry, I did not catch that.

I can't think of something to ask it.

Yukichi.

What should I ask Siro?

I've got it.

I just need to train my brain
so it doesn't get rusty.

How about a game for the brain?

It's a challenge, Yukichi!

Memory game.

Rock, paper, scissors!

I win!

You can only take the cards
if you find a pair.

Here I go.

This

and this.

They're not a pair...

Your turn, Yukichi.

Right. That's how you play this.

You're good!

Clean sweep.

O-One more time...

Another clean sweep.

Let's play another game.

I'll be right back!

Six hours later.

Okay. I give up.

It's not about winning or losing.

Just playing these games is enough
to get your brain going.

But it's no fun if I can't win!

And I've lost every game!

If I get senile young,

I'll need you to take care of me
for the rest of my life, Yukichi.

You get me.

You know what I'm talking
about when I say this and that...

I hardly talk during my days off.

After the long weekend,
I've forgotten how to speak...

SHOCKED

You want to continue?

Yukichi's Spartan mental training

lasted until midnight.

YUKICHI'S SPARTAN MENTAL TRAINING
LASTED UNTIL MIDNIGHT

After that...

Pacific saury rice.

Saku saw a surge...

Sardine fish ball soup.

...of blue-backed fish.

Yellowtail with white radish.

SIP

Yum.

You've been quite
into cooking fish lately, huh?

FOODS HIGH IN DHA AND EPA

GLOOMY

I'm so sorry...

It's okay, Yuri.

It was a small mistake.
Everyone will forget it in no time.

It was a close call,

but we caught it before it was sent out,
so don't worry too much about it.

Seeing the ever-cool and composed newbie
cry is a treat for me, though.

Oshiro!

Here, I'll let you have some of my lunch.

What are you having today?

Today, I have fried ham cutlets,

stir-fried burdock with carrot,

and rolled omelet.

Rolled... omelet...

We got a reaction. It's the omelet.
Stuff it into her mouth!

Yes, ma'am!

CHEWING

It's so good...

That's great. Now cheer up.

Can I try some, too?

You want some, too?

You always seem
to enjoy your food so much.

So I've always wanted to try it.

-Go ahead.
-Thanks.

Thank you for the food.

It's really good!

Your cooking skills are amazing, Fukuzawa.

Right?

Teach me how to make it.

Teach me, too!

SURPRISED

Who did you learn from?

Well...

No... I should just come clean...

Senpai.

"My cat makes my lunches.

I don't know a thing about cooking..."

Um, about the recipe...

I... I don't really know...

Are you saying you're the type
who doesn't need to refer to a recipe?

You're a culinary expert!

-Amazing!
-Amazing!

This train will stop at every station
until it reaches its final destination.

And that's why...

I lied to cover up the truth,

so please teach me
how to make your rolled omelet.

So these are the ingredients.

EGGS, SALT, SOY SAUCE, SUGAR

Mayonnaise.

What's the order?

SPRINKLE

Wait. How much salt was that?

Huh?

How much soy sauce did you put into it?

Do you act on instinct, Yukichi?

Rolled omelet recipe.

First, the ingredients.

Two eggs.

One sprinkle of sugar.
Two sprinkles of salt.

One squeeze of mayonnaise.
Two drops of soy sauce.

What kind of a recipe is this?

Do-over!

Under this vast sky,

there are many creatures known as cats,

but how many of them
can help their owners take out the trash?

No one asked this of me,

and I do not seek words of gratitude.

I'll redo it before morning...

But you ought to notice somehow.

Space has been made in this room.
Why do you still sleep at the entrance?

Oh, no!

If I don't hurry and take the garbage out

when dawn comes, that guy will appear.

That annoying old man will show up.

There you are again, you dumb cat!

This old man has claimed this
garbage disposal area as his territory.

Perhaps he has something against cats.

He always picks a fight with me.

He's an extremely annoying old man.

...I knew you'd come here!

Was that a sigh?

You arrogant cat!

Anyone in my shoes
would want to sigh at this.

Darn cat.

You're taking out the trash again?!
You don't learn, do you?

Darn cat! You don't even know
how to separate your trash!

Oh, you separated it correctly this time.

Thanks to that useless human
and this old man,

I've realized something.

That is...

I am neither dumb nor ordinary.

I am the one and only masterful cat!

Weird cat.

I am the masterful cat!

And you're filthy.

Come here. I'll give you a bath.

Stay still now.

All right.

I will never forget this grudge...

I will never...

Hey, don't move.

You'll catch a cold
if you don't dry off properly.

Good grief.
Today was another unfortunate day.

All in all, this is all

the fault of that useless human.

She seems to consume this often

Is this "Juru" specifically for humans?

Yet, she seems to grow weaker by the day.

I've disposed of most of the garbage,

repelled the insects,

and I open the windows every day
to ensure proper air circulation.

So why is this human still...

She doesn't seem
to be getting better at all.

Is she cold?

Yukichi.

You're so warm and fluffy...

Why is my body

so small?

I overslept!

She consumed this thing again.

This symbol stands for plastic waste,

so it goes into this bag.

The weather is nice today.

Let's open the windows to get some air.

Ow!

I'm out of energy.

Why?

That's because you only eat sweets, Akane.

Good food is the source of our power!

But you shouldn't just eat anything.

You, come on, let's cook together!

Let's make something packed with love!

The greatest power food on earth,

rice ba*ls!

What?

-What is this?
-Let's make root vegetable miso soup too.

Sounds great!

-If I...
-Ready, everyone?

feed that human this "rice ball"...

Will she... make that expression too?

Will it lift her spirits?

Just you wait.

I'll be able to make
those "rice ba*ls" in no time.

That is because

I am not an ordinary cat.

I am the one and only...

masterful cat!

THE ONE AND ONLY MASTERFUL CAT

Thank you!

-Bye!
-See you next time!

I'm home, Yukichi!

What's for dinner?
