00:00Why not? It's fine, right?
00:04No, but...
00:07Make me your top customer. Then I can spoil you.
00:12But that's just weird. Please wake up.
00:17It's okay. I'm fully awake. I'm serious. I really want to be yours.
00:23That's why I can give you everything.
00:26Or is my sincerity not getting through?
00:29How can I make you see it? Is money not enough?
00:33Would you prefer something else?
00:36I've got it. How about my pinky?
00:39After all, that's where the red string of fate is tied.
00:43Pinky is good, right? I think it's perfect.
00:46Would you take it, Takashi?
00:49Please, calm down.
00:53I am Takashi Arakawa, office worker.
00:57I'm in a really desperate situation right now.
01:02How did things even end up like this?
01:05The story goes back a bit.
01:10So, she's not coming today either.
01:14This is the hostess bar called Ruby.
01:19I've been coming here regularly ever since I met my favorite girl here during a work event six months ago.
01:27She doesn't seem to be coming today either. Maybe I'll just finish this drink and head home.
01:34Everyone, thank you for waiting.
01:38Hmm, that voice.
01:42You were waiting for me, weren't you?
01:46Reina, I was waiting for you.
01:49Hey, look over here!
01:53She's as popular as ever.
01:56Her name is Reina.
01:59Within just two months of starting here, she climbed to the number one spot.
02:04She's an incredibly talented hostess.
02:08Her slightly domineering queen-like attitude seems to capture the hearts of many men.
02:16You're here again, still looking as gloomy as ever.
02:20Why don't you try brightening up a bit?
02:24I'm fine like this.
02:27It's such a waste with your good looks.
02:30Even an introvert can shine if they try.
02:33You've always been handsome.
02:37Always?
02:39No, never mind.
02:42She's gone.
02:45Why does she get so mad at me?
02:48Reina always seems to pick a fight with me every time she sees my face.
02:53One day, after being teased like this over and over...
03:00Hey, it's about time you cut your bangs.
03:03I've told you they look lame.
03:05Plus, your eyes will get worse if you keep them like that.
03:10If I cut my bangs, the scar will show.
03:14That scar is part of what makes you cool.
03:17You got it when you saved that girl, right?
03:21Why don't you put in some effort when you're so attractive?
03:25You're wasting your potential.
03:27You could really shine.
03:31Wait, is she complimenting me?
03:35Well...
03:37Hey Takashi, it's been a while.
03:41Hey Mika, you're back today.
03:45Yes, that's right.
03:48If I remember correctly, Mika is...
03:53I'm sorry for the late introduction.
03:55I'm Mika.
03:56I took a break from this place just as you started working here.
04:02I've been waiting for you this whole time.
04:06You're so sweet. Your bangs have grown out.
04:09You need to cut them or I won't be able to see your handsome face.
04:13Are you going to cut them?
04:15I will.
04:18Why is your attitude so different with me?
04:21And why are you being so soft?
04:24Because she's been my favorite since forever.
04:28Your favorite? I see she is your favorite.
04:33Reina, could you go to the table 3, please?
04:37Okay.
04:43Mika, can you go to the table 4, please?
04:47All right. See you later.
04:50See you later.
04:52I finally got to chat with her after so long.
04:56Oh man, I'm so happy.
05:02What's wrong, Reina? You weren't called over here.
05:06What's that smile? I don't get it.
05:09Why are you smiling like that at someone else?
05:12Unforgivable. Smiling at anyone but me is unforgivable.
05:17Why is she mumbling like that? What's going on?
05:22Hey.
05:25Unforgivable.
05:28Huh?
05:30Looking at anyone else but me is unforgivable.
05:34What?
05:37I can do anything for you. I'll support you all the way.
05:41You don't need to be my top customer. I'll be your top customer.
05:46What do you mean all of a sudden? I don't get it.
05:50I mean, make me your top customer.
05:54That's what I don't understand at all.
06:00A few days later.
06:03What's up with Reina the other day?
06:05She suddenly got all clingy and started saying weird stuff.
06:09Was she just tired?
06:12Well, anyway, I'll forget about yesterday and just enjoy today with Mika.
06:18I've already made a reservation, so now I just have to wait for her to show up.
06:24Your seat isn't over there. It's over here.
06:28Huh?
06:31Why am I being called to the VIP section? I didn't reserve this room.
06:38Hello, Takashi.
06:41Reina, and what's with that huge chain and padlock?
06:46This? It's the chain and padlock of love, to make sure you can't leave here.
06:53Even if you call it love, it's terrifying. But why did you bring me to a place like this?
07:00Because if you were over there, you'd talk to someone else, wouldn't you?
07:04Talking to anyone but me is unforgivable.
07:08Absolutely not. You must only look at me. And be only mine.
07:15What?
07:18Are you okay, Takashi?
07:22Is that Mika?
07:25Wait, what? Did you just kick down the door?
07:29Oh my gosh, it just broke when I lightly tapped it.
07:34Mika, why are you here?
07:37You made a reservation but never showed up, so I got worried. The staff told me you were here.
07:45Hey, why are you interrupting?
07:48Calm down, Reina. Takashi, leave now while you can.
07:54Yes.
07:56No, I won't let you go.
08:01The days of enduring her intense, inexplicable outbursts of affection continued.
08:07You'd think the solution would be to just stop going to the hostess bar.
08:12But that would mean not seeing my favorite girl.
08:15So, I kept dodging Reina's intense affections while continuing to visit Mika.
08:22Then, one day, the bar's monthly event day arrived.
08:27This month, it seemed to be a cosplay event.
08:32How do I look?
08:35You look amazing.
08:38You are the best.
08:40My lover.
08:43Thank you, everyone. Also, what do you think, Takashi? How's my cosplay?
08:51Mika, it looks great on you.
08:55It's a bit embarrassing. Brings back memories, though.
09:00As expected, you really suit the outfit. You're natural, and the aura is just different.
09:08Hey, it's unforgivable to get so excited over someone other than me. You should be looking at me.
09:16Jumping in like that is dangerous.
09:20Huh?
09:23Reina!
09:25Hurt!
09:27Oh my gosh!
09:29Oh no!
09:32Wow.
09:34Takashi!
09:37Are you okay?
09:40I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to.
09:45You're hurt. Let's all get to the back room.
09:49Yeah.
09:52I'll go explain things to the customers, so you two stay here and wait.
09:59Thank you for giving me a medical treatment.
10:03Don't worry about it. Reina, please take care of him.
10:08Yes.
10:10I'm really sorry. This wasn't my intention at all. After you saved me again, I even ended up hurting you.
10:20Let me make it up to you. I'll do anything you need, from helping with chores to keeping you company at night.
10:30Please calm down.
10:33But...
10:35You don't need to thank me. I helped you because I wanted to. That's all.
10:41You've always been like this, recklessly helping others.
10:47Huh?
10:49It's nothing. But please, let me repay you. I won't feel right otherwise.
10:57If you insist, I have just one request. Come over to my place on your day off.
11:05What is this? This is beyond messy. Just wait right there.
11:12A few hours later...
11:15Phew. Now it's clean.
11:19Wow. This is amazing.
11:22I'm good at tidying up. And I can sew and cook too.
11:28I'm really hopeless at this. I have zero life skills.
11:34How do you even eat?
11:37I stock up on instant meals.
11:41You're kidding.
11:44I'm serious.
11:46I see. Well, then, I'll be coming over to your place for a while.
11:53Huh? Why?
11:56To help you live like a human being. I never imagined you were this helpless.
12:02So it's decided. I'll come over on your days off and take care of things. So be ready.
12:10What?
12:14Just as she declared, she started coming over to my place on her days off and took care of everything for me.
12:22She sometimes gives me love attacks, but I've gotten used to it by now.
12:28Before I knew it, a week had passed with her showering me with overwhelming affection, while also kindly taking care of me.
12:38Today's dish is omelet with fried rice. Please try it with grated radish.
12:45It's really delicious, as always.
12:49Right? I noticed the button on your suit sleeve was about to fall off, so I fixed it.
12:56I also did some ironing. And I've prepared some make-head meals for the weekdays. What's wrong?
13:04You're so kind and caring. So why are you a bit standoffish when you're working as a hostess?
13:10And why did you become a hostess in the first place?
13:14The truth is, I'm really bad at dealing with people. I wanted to improve.
13:19So I started working at a hostess bar, where I could practice talking to others.
13:24Since I mostly interact with older customers there, I thought it would also help me become more cultured.
13:32You're bad at dealing with people? What do you mean?
13:36I've been wondering, why do you come on so strong with me? Do you hate me or something?
13:43No, I don't hate you.
13:46But you've been pretty harsh with me.
13:50That's not it. The truth is, well, there are reasons for the way I've acted.
13:58Reasons?
14:02I used to give honest compliments to both men and women, but I guess they didn't like that.
14:08I was talked about behind my back. I was told that I was a good girl and a beauty on all sides.
14:14I couldn't praise people honestly anymore, so I became like that.
14:19I really want to praise people honestly, but if I do, I'm sure they won't like me.
14:25I'm afraid they'll say terrible things to me again.
14:30But that was back in school, right? We're adults now.
14:36I know that, I really do. I understand it came from a childish place. But still, it's scary.
14:45It's okay. There are so many people here who like you. No one's going to dislike you.
14:52So try to be honest. You don't need to be afraid anymore.
14:57But...
15:00If anyone talks behind your back, I'll blow them away.
15:05Will you protect me?
15:08Yes, I promise. I'll make sure to protect you.
15:13Thank you. If you say that, I'll try my best.
15:19Since that day, Reina started complimenting her customers more openly.
15:26That cheap tie doesn't suit you at all. I mean, you should wear something that suits you better.
15:32You have such a good look. It's a waste to dress yourself in something so cheap.
15:38Thank you so much.
15:41You can do it after all.
15:44It's different from before, but this new approach seems to be working well.
15:49And Reina is still the number one at the hostess bar.
15:54Thank you, Takashi. It's all thanks to you. Everyone's smiling because of it.
16:01I'm glad to hear that.
16:04Yes, but you know, making you happy is still the best thing for me.
16:10You think this way because you love me, right? I know it. We're destined to be together.
16:16We were fated partners in our past lives.
16:20Whoa. Hey, getting too close is against the rules.
16:26Oh, you're so mean.
16:30Hmm...
16:35Reina kept working hard day after day.
16:39Then, one day...
16:42I'm worried something might be wrong.
16:46Huh? What do you mean all of a sudden?
16:50The more honest Reina is, the more different she becomes from how she used to be.
16:57Most customers have accepted the change, but there are still some who preferred the old, cold, harsh queen persona.
17:05Among them are some extreme fans, so I'm a bit concerned.
17:10I guess that's why she was number one.
17:14We're trying to make sure she's never alone.
17:18But Reina isn't on the floor right now, is she?
17:24What? I thought she was at table one just a moment ago.
17:28I'll check with the staff. Hold on.
17:32What's going on?
17:35Where's Reina?
17:38She said she felt a bit tipsy and went outside for some fresh air.
17:44Alone?
17:46Alone.
17:49Hmm...
17:51Hmm...
17:54This might be bad.
17:57It's dangerous.
18:00No, stay away from me. Don't come any closer.
18:05Why are you so scared? Why did you have to change so much?
18:10You should have always been the queen. I like the way you look down on people.
18:15It's that guy, isn't it? He's the reason you've changed, right? I can't forgive him.
18:22No, please don't come any closer.
18:26I'll make you the old you again. Come with me.
18:31Please, don't. Somebody help me.
18:36I'm here.
18:39Takashi?
18:41Are you okay?
18:44Somehow, but why are you here?
18:48I promised to protect you, didn't I?
18:52Takashi...
18:55You, don't get in my way.
18:59What do you mean by don't get in your way? I won't forgive you for doing this to her.
19:05Shut up. If it weren't for you, she wouldn't have changed. It's all because of you.
19:13What do you even know about her?
19:19Phew, that should do it.
19:23You did well, Takashi. I'm proud of you as a sister.
19:28Mika.
19:31Sorry I'm late. I was calling the police.
19:36Sister? Wait, what?
19:41Yeah, Mika is my cousin. And she's a former delinquent leader, a former gang boss who led over a hundred girls.
19:50What? She was a delinquent?
19:54Oh dear, I was quite a handful when I was young.
19:59I've always looked up to such a cool older sister.
20:04But why are you so polite to her?
20:08It's because I deeply respect it and because I've been thoroughly trained in the strict hierarchy of the gang world.
20:16Come on, I only put you in a leg lock because you were being a bit cheeky.
20:21Thanks to that, I got a lot stronger. Thank you.
20:26So there are no romantic feelings?
20:30Not at all. First of all, I don't fall in love with my favorites like that.
20:35Because I am just a fan of them. Besides, falling for Mika...
20:41Did you say something?
20:44Nothing at all.
20:47I thought you were seriously in love with her and it was driving me crazy.
20:52But now that my worries are gone, I'm going to come at you full force. Get ready to accept my love.
21:00Wait, please just tell me why you like me. I can't accept anything unless I know why.
21:08Well, um, I don't know if you remember, but you saved me a long time ago.
21:15A long time ago?
21:19It was when we were in high school, I think.
21:22On a rainy day, I slipped on the pedestrian bridge and fell down the stairs. You shielded me.
21:31Wait, are you that girl back then? You look completely different.
21:38Girls change a lot as they grow up, you know.
21:42I see. But how did you recognize me?
21:46Your forehead scar. I overheard you talking to someone else about how you got it, saving a girl.
21:53And plus, you haven't changed at all.
21:57Ugh.
22:00So, you've saved me more than once, and that's when I felt it, our faded connection.
22:07So I'm saying it again. Please accept my love.
22:12You're really energetic, aren't you?
22:16And so, the chaotic commotion finally came to an end.
22:23After that, the culprit was taken to the police and dealt with accordingly.
22:29Reina continues to work at the hostess bar, but recently at the bar.
22:36I like Takashi, everyone.
22:40Thanks to her declaration, her love attack on me has become officially recognized and famous.
22:48All of her fans seem to be cheering her on as long as she's happy.
22:53Time passed, and...
22:58It's almost been a year since I started taking care of you and showing you my love.
23:04So, how about it? Do you like me yet?
23:09Not at all.
23:12Not at all? So, it's still no good? When will you ever like me?
23:19I don't think I'll ever like you.
23:23Huh?
23:27Why would you say that? What's wrong with me?
23:31What did I do wrong? I'll fix everything, so please don't say that.
23:36Actually, maybe I should just sew up that mouth of yours for saying such things. What do you think?
23:43Please calm down.
23:46Ouch!
23:49It's because I've fallen in love with you, so there is no more liking left. That was a bit of a mean way to put it.
23:58Huh?
24:00I surrender. I give up. After being loved this much, I've fallen in love with you too.
24:07Plus, I don't think I can eat anyone else's cooking besides yours, and I can't imagine being with anyone else but you.
24:17Let me say it properly this time.
24:20Over this past year, spending time together, I've grown to care for you deeply.
24:26I'm sorry it took me so long to express my feelings. I love you. Will you be my girlfriend?
24:34Of course! I love you too, Takashi.
24:40Hey, Reina.
24:43Now that we're a couple, there's no need to hold back, right? So, let me indulge in you.
24:50Don't worry. It'll be over by the time you count the spots on the ceiling.
24:56Hey, you know, you can't let your affections run wild.
25:01Apparently, her doting continues when she becomes a lover.
