02x05 - First Time at a Women's University

[bunniefuu]

Oumi Women's University

Heading into my visit to OWU Fest,

The Mansion of Fortune - East Wing 201

I started looking into ways to pick up girls.

All-Girls College Festival - Essential Guide to Picking Up Girls

Important
Choose a safe outfit that doesn't stand
out from the crowd
Read the room
Don't be overeager
Try to come off as natural as possible

According to one website,

"Choose a safe outfit that
doesn't stand out from the crowd.

Read the room."

True, an outfit that's too showy,

or one that screams I'm here to
pick up women, will only weird them out.

So I should wear something
appropriate that blends in.

However...

This outfit is most certainly not that.

Iori-chan, Ko-chan! Coffee's good to go!

Okey-dokey!

Cakey
Cafe

"Cakey Cafe"?

Sounds like a concept conceived
to destroy the dreams of men.

What fresh ninth circle of Hell is this?

You see, I'm working with
some girls in my major...

They took a liking to the idea
when they saw this pic.

How were they not weirded out?

Guess they're not your friends for nothing.

I'm amazed they're willing
to do this to themselves.

Agreed.

You're one to talk!

At least nobody will hit on you
if you dress up like this, Kotegawa.

Something happen?

Yeah, on the way here.

Wanna help out, then, Chisa?

It'll keep the pests away.

I'd like that, but not like this.

Come on, don't say that.

I beg you...

Please!

There's zero chance Chisa-chan
will get hit on during OWU Fest, right?

Why do you sound so desperate?

"Why"? Are you really
gonna make me spell it out?

Yeah, why?

Because I wanna see you
look all ugly, that's why.

Not in a million years, then.

Please!

Nope!

Just imagine it's a haunted house!

No way!

You can make friends here if you help out!

Denied!

You might be able to get those
friends to come diving with you!

I... I'll consider it.

Too easy.

Way too easy.

Chisa...

But if I'm embarrassing myself,
I'm not doing it alone!

Why would you be alone?

Cakey'll be right there with you.

Well, yeah.

That's not the point.

Then what is?

You want him to put on makeup, too?

That's crossing the line!

Quit playing!

Chisa?

Say, Iori?

Yeah?

Didn't you dress up like Azusa-san before?

I take it Iori's in too, then?

Okay!

No-kay!

Makes sense.

How?

Because you have the resume
and track record to pull it off.

Y-You don't say.

Cakey, he can pull off a really natural
female voice! Some "mix-whatever" thing!

Hired!

Hired

Kitahara!

You don't wanna be left out of the fun, do you?

Unhand me! I'm here
on a very important mission!

What's that?

He wants to go grab a place in line
for the voice actress concert.

That's not for another eight hours, y'know?

So what?

I have a better idea.

You do?

I care not.

Nothing matters to me right now,
other than today's concert.

My friend has an in. If you help, I'll make
sure you get to meet the voice actress.

Roar!

Tweet, tweet.

He changed his tune quick!

So you're all helping out with our cafe, right?

You got it.

Wrong!

Cakey
Cafe

All I wanted was to turn Chisa ugly...

Less talking, more working, Iori-chan.

She sure is taking her sweet time, though.

You know girls take longer to get ready.

Yuuna: "Come on! Girls take longer to get ready, Onii-chan!"

Come on! Girls take longer
to get ready, Onii-chan!

Like you'd know.

Here she is.

Oh?

Ooh?

Go on, don't be shy.

Don't stare so much.

Masterful job, Cakey.

She's dressed to k*ll.
k*ll everything good about her.

See what I can do?

I should've never agreed to this.

Huh? Who's all this?

I smell cake!

Friends of yours, Aina?

cake cake cake

Yep. They're helping out.

Really? Thanks!

cake cake cake cake

Nice to meet you. I'm Kanako Iida.

I'm Keiko Suzuki.

And I'm Kiyoko Kamio.

Uh, Chisa Kotegawa.

Something wrong?

Don't know how to say this...

...but this isn't our first time meeting.

cake cake cake

Wait, these two are Iori-kun and Kohei-kun?

Holy cow!

Hey, pfft... Kikko, you're laughing too much.

You know them?

In passing.

'Tis a cursed memory.

Gosh, sorry about back then.

Hey! She just took a pic!

Seriously? Delete it, please!

We'll let you in on the secret.

Aina asked us to make sure that mixer failed.

How could you, Cakey!

What's the meaning of this?

I... I didn't mean anything by it.

Gee, I wonder why she did that.

Maybe there was a boy
she didn't want to risk losing out on.

Hey! Say one more word,
and I'll seriously lose it!

And you must be Iori-kun's girlfriend.
We've heard so much about you.

Thanks for helping out today!

Sorry you had to look all weird for us.

Aina doesn't know the meaning of restraint.

Uh...

Can we call you Chisa?

Oh, yes.

You can call me Keiko.

And me, Kikko.

So this is the all-girls college fest
of my dreams...

College Girls

College Girls

College Boy

I don't know what I expected,
but it wasn't this!

What're you moping for?

You answer my question first!

What? What is it?

Why do we get to wear normal makeup?
Make us as cakey as the rest of you!

Good point.

I just figured all the problems
would head your way if I did this.

That's too much makeup. It's caked on.

If we're hitting on anyone here,
it's those two.

Ack!

I'm getting chills!

I woulda k*lled myself
if I didn't have nerves of steel!

Cakey
Cafe

Why is this place even getting guests?

Are people here for the thrill?

Rude.

We're having tons of fun.

My sister came to hang out,
and she's enjoying herself too.

Are you sure this is
what you sisters want to be?

Your parents would faint
if they saw you like this.

I'd rather die than have
anyone I know see me like this...

Yoohoo!

Talk about cakey!

Hey, Azusa-san.

I came to hang for a bit.

Feel free.

Welcome.

Wait, is that Chi-chan?

Y-Yes.

badump badump

I'm impressed you could tell.

'Course I could. Can I take a photo?

Absolutely not!

badump badump

Badump!

What are you doing?!

I knew it was you, Iori! How cute!

Don't flip my skirt up to check!

Look who's talking.

Aren't you naked most of the time?

Which means that's Kohei over there.

Exactamundo!

Yeah, I'm more myself
in the nude. Time to strip.

Don't you dare!

They'll cancel our cafe,
so keep the clothes on!

Huh? Azusa?

Caked

Hey, is that you, Maya?!

Correct!

It's been ages! Everything good?

How can she recognize people in that state?

Not at all! Work is hell every single day.

I mean, it's Azusa-san.

Same as ever, then!

Huh? What are you doing, Sis?

Wait, you know Kanako's older sister?

Yep!

We haven't met up in a while, though.

Or got it on like old times.

C'mon, Azusa, don't make it sound dirty.

P-People might take it out of context.

In what way?

Let's not go there!

Oh, right. Are you busy right now, Iori?

Unfortunately.

Aw, too bad. I wanted your help.

For what?

Oh, my friend's on the festival committee.

They said the concert setup is behind schedule.
They might end up having to shorten it.

I'm your dog, at your service!

I'll go get changed into
a more comfortable outfit!

You okay with it?

Kinda have to be.

He'd snap for real if we stopped him.

I'll help with the setup, too.

Not you!

Denied!

But why?!

I'm good to go.

What happened to comfortable?

Can you really set up equipment like that?

Today, this is my strongest form!

O-Oh yeah?

If you say so.

That's so Kohei.
I'll be borrowing him for a while.

Let us hurry!

What an outfit.

He's always like that.

He is?

Yeah. Every bit as gross as he looks.

Oh...

I keep telling him how gross
he is, but he never listens.

That's so mean.

Did you say something?

Nothing.

Oh, okay.

I guess that's how someone's hobby
comes off when you don't get it.

True. But that's exactly
why I also believe this.

What?

He's an...

There's even more work
to do now with Kohei gone.

Better work faster, then.

Yeah, yeah.

Welco...

...me?!

Table for four.

Sure is hot out.

I'm thirsty.

No! Why are these shitheads here?!

I wish I hadn't been the one to greet them!

Is something wrong, miss?

If you're not feeling well,
let me stroke your back for you.

Putting on the moves instantly, huh?

Control yourself.

You can ignore this guy.

Huh?

These guys...

Something on my face?

Nah, not really.

Ugly as always.

Look at me instead of his ugly mug, milady.

Have they not realized it's me?

Me, ugly? If that's a joke, it ain't funny.

Oh, it came straight from the heart.

Go look in a mirror.

And face reality.

I'll show you to your table.

Sure.

What's with this place?!

OWU... makeup...

Forget about that mixer already, Yamamoto!

Good thing at least this girl's a hottie, huh?

Phew. They don't know.

But why are they here anyway?

Man, Mitarai, I must say...

You're one nasty schemer, you know that?

Nice idea.

You know it.

Can't believe you suggested
coming here early without Kitahara.

Flinch!

I mean, the tickets are valid for four people.

So there'll be plenty of groups
of four for us to target.

If we'd gone in a team of five,
we'd have one extra.

Cutting that shithead out was
the best way to avoid any conflict.

Besides, you know how he dresses.

He's basically half-naked all the time.

That perv would've tanked
our chances of success.

Cutting him out was the right move.

Ah, I see now.

I was going to take the high road so they
wouldn't find out it's me, but too bad.

I'm gonna have to show 'em hell!

All right, how about some drinks?

Excuse me! Can we order?

Of course. What will it be?

For you?

Iced coffee for me.

Certainly.

And for you, sir?

Iced coffee for me too.

Certainly.

And for the virgin over there?

Hey, who asks like that?!

I'm not a virgin!

Sit down, virgin.

Don't yell at the girl, virgin.

Your fault for looking like a virgin, virgin.

My apologies.

All I could see was a virgin, nothing else.

Some apology that was!
You're just tacking on more insults!

Facts are facts.

That's all I see, too.

Let me ask again.

What will the virgin-for-life have?

We don't know what the future holds!

Sit down, eternal virgin.

Facts are facts.

Better luck next life.

Fine. Iced coffee.

Certainly. Let me double-check your order.

Three cherry cokes, yes?

Cherry Boys

He's the only virgin here!

I didn't order that either!

I'm sorry. That was just a fun little joke.

Fun little...

It hurt my very soul, though.

Oh, so it was just a fun little joke.

You're so playful.

I'm really sorry.

How would you like some
coffee-flavored c*ck?

Oh, you serve booze?

Coffee-flavored c*ck, huh...

Not a bad idea.

Let's pre-game before we go hit on girls.

Sounds good.

I'll have one too.

Thank you.

Please give us a bit.

Sure thing.

We'll wait.

What about my order?

How weird.

Where is it?

What're you looking for?

Hey, Cakey.

I can't find the Spirytus.

Spirytus [Alcohol]

Can you not take it
for granted that we'd have it?

What even is the order?

Coffee-flavored c*ck.

Use this Kahlua, then.

I can't take them out with this
weak-a*s booze, though.

What are you trying to do to our guests?!

Don't cause a fuss,
or security will throw you out!

Ugh, fine. Guess I'll have to use this.

Also, don't toilet squat in a maid outfit!

Here's your order!

Aye, let's go!

Doesn't look any different from actual coffee.

Uh...

You said coffee-flavored.
Did you use Kahlua, then?

Yes, I used Kahlua for the base...

and ink for the coloring!

Why the hell would you add ink?!

Kahlua has plenty of color by itself!

Sorry, I thought it'd make it better.

Make what better, exactly?!

I'm profusely sorry.

Uh...

Can I make it up to you by
giving you my contact details?

Uh...

I don't have my phone on me,
so could you give me yours?

I'll add my contact.

A-OK!

You better share later!

You're dead if you keep it to yourself!

Ah!

Is something wrong?

I went and pressed the wrong thing.

Oh, it happens.

It's someone else's phone.

I don't blame ya.

Did you enter the wrong ID?

No, I slipped up and...

sent this person here this text.

"Picking up girls in the Cakey Cafe rn."

"Wait, what?"

"I'm coming over."

That's one absurd slip-up right there!

I'm sorry. I'm terrible with gadgets.

Don't worry about it.

He deserves it for hitting on chicks
when he already has a lady.

Hey, don't tell her I have a lady!

Wha?

It's dangerous. Come this way.

Okay.

Quit wrapping your arm around her shoulder!

Oh, my bad.

Um, if you don't mind...

there's someone I'd like you to meet.

Wow.

Please?

Your parents, you mean?

While I do think we're jumping
the g*n, I'll do it for you.

I'll meet them.

Huh?

That man started touching me
and saying, "I'll never let you go."

Thanks for the report.

You're coming with us.

Let me go! This is a mistake!

No, I saw it too.

He's definitely a molester.

If I am, then he is too!

What?!

While you're taking out the trash,
take him away too.

Trash?!

Let me go!

Stop that!

Ow, you're hurting me!

Heh. At last, the evil is defeated.

Aight. It's 2 PM soon.

Hey, Iori.

I told you not to cause a fuss, didn't I?

That was you, you b*stard?!

How dare you mock my innocence!

How are ya gonna fix this?!

Shaddup!

Let's stop. It's pointless.

Fair.

We're wasting time like this.

No Entry

How about we go grab a drink?

Doesn't look like we're getting back in.

I mean, if we did get back in...

...who'd want to go see girls like those?

Good point.

What's that?

Looks like a production truck.

Izu-no-Ko
Wide LIVE Broadcast

They came to cover the fest?

No wonder those tickets were gone in a flash.

We can watch it on mobile.

Show us.

Izu-no-Ko Wide LIVE Broadcast

Here's a quirky cafe that
boasts staff with heavy makeup.

It seems we were too late, however,
since they've switched over to the second half.

Second half?

What's that about?

In the second half, they cleanse the makeup

so guests can enjoy the contrast
between both halves.

Huh?

We're the Cakey Cafe!

The second half starts now! Please come visit!

Please.

Please...

So it seems.

A second half without the gaudy makeup?!

I didn't know those girls were this cute!

I wish I'd known!

We can't go back in, though.

Oumi Women's University

No tickets, either.

Oh, well.

Yeah...

It sucks, but there's nothing we can do.

We'll lick your boots!

Seriously, stop.

We won't cause any problems!

Want a shoulder massage?

How about a free meal?!

If it goes well, we'll introduce their friends!

Again, that's not the point.

Okay, fine!

We'll all strip!

And dance naked!

Float like a butterfly!

Are you listening?

All right, boys, get to it!

We got kicked the hell out this time.

They were fuming.

Our passion didn't get through to them.

How vexing.

But hey, we did all we could.

We practically begged them.

And even that didn't work,
so now we know to drop it.

Yeah, we'll give up on having them let us in...

No Entry

and force ourselves in!

Yeah!

Uh...

C-Can I order?

Now, what's on the next episode
of Grand Blue Dreaming?

Preview

Iori here. I hope the hot summer
isn't wearing you out.

The idiots and I came to the
girls' college fest but got thrown out.

But our lust isn't about to give in!
