01x02 - Doubts about Youth ~The Telepathy Club Appears~

[bunniefuu]

Bye.

You're early today, Shigeo.

How are your sore muscles? I'm okay.

Do you have a student council meeting, Ritsu? Yes.

Shigeo, why did you join the Bodybuilding Club? I told you.

I want to become more masculine.

But, you have other powers, Shigeo.

What? Psychic powers.

Oh, that Why don't you use them more often? Because there's no chance to.

You have no desires, do you? Of course I do.

But, I can't get what I want by using psychic powers.

What can't you get by using psychic powers? Muscles.

What? And Tsubomi.

Oh, good morning, Ritsu.

He just fell right over, right? Are you all right? No! Of course not! I'm sorry.

What are you apologizing for? Oh, dear.

Let's go! Bodybuilding! READ THE ROOM

- Pump up!

- Pump up! Pump up! Bodybuilding!

- Pump up!

- Pump up!

- Pump up!

- Pump up! Kageyama! Use your power! Power! Masculinity isn't about psychic power.

Masculinity is about muscles.

Kageyama! Hey! Boss!

- Kageyama!

- Hey!

- Are you okay?

- He must be anemic.

Anemic?

- Let's get him up.

Ready, go!

- Okay.



- Slowly.



- You okay, Kageyama? BODYBUILDING CLUB TELEPATHY CLUB "The new cult, (LOL), has been just established.

But, it has grown in numbers quickly.

It's been reported that the cult's leader can instantly put a smile on anyone's face.

" Wait I sense something! Here it comes! I'm getting signals! No doubt about it! I must find out! Hey! Telepathy club! You here? Mr.

Goda! Thank you very much for allowing me to use this club room! No problem.

Like I said, we just need a place for our equipment.

What's that over your shoulder? Kageyama collapsed again.

Down you go.

Slowly.

Good.

Sorry, but could you look after him?

- What?

- We have to get back to our training! Rest here for a while.

When you're used to it, it won't hurt.



- Okay! Go!

- Go! Train yourself every day Yamamura! Close the door! I'm sorry! I got only muscles on my mind! I can't believe this.

Here.

I can't reach it.

Oh, come on.

You have that power, right? Wow! You're the real deal.

That's amazing This is good.

You really should be a member of the Telepathy Club! I have already joined the Bodybuilding Club.

You know what? You're a burden to the Bodybuilding Club.

Can't you tell that they all want you to quit? Get a clue! I'll admit I am pretty clueless.

But, I'm not going to quit until I build muscles.

Even with muscles, you'll never get girls.

How How did you know I want to get girls? Because I sensed it.

No wonder you're in the Telepathy Club.

Don't you remember you told me? Then, what should I do To get girls? That's easy! Learn to read a woman's mind! I'm such a clueless guy.

How can I possibly read a woman's mind? Of course you can.

If you use telepathy.

"My butt's really itchy.

" Don't go reading my mind!

- Come on! What's wrong?

- Give him what he's asking for, Tenga! What's the matter? Stand up!

- What is it?

- What's with you? Tenga! That's good! Come on! Stand up! What's with you? Is that all you've got? Is the Black Vinegar Middle School's g*ng leader going to cry, Edano? You're pretty good Demon Tenga of Salt Middle School.

But, I will get my revenge! I will make your life so sour that you will cry! Well, don't you mean "bitter" instead of "sour"? What? We're from Black Vinegar Middle School, so "sour" is just right! Ouch! Tsubomi! Lately, there's been an erection of fights between Salt and Black Vinegar.

I think you mean "eruption.

" They're getting bigger, so what's wrong with "erection"? I'm correcting you for your own sake, Tsubomi.

Sometimes, you don't need to correct me! Get a clue! Let's go.

MOB 50% Here you go.

Thank you.

You're way gloomier than normal today.

I have a lot of worries.

Well Everyone has worries.

You do, too? That's right.

It's hard to get quality octopuses.

TAKOYAKI Did you know that 80% of an octopus' body is muscles? That's why they give you so much power.

I see.

Just like I thought, muscles are important.

Right! GHOSTS ETC.

AGENCY I'm Mr.

Inoue.

I'm here for my appointment.

I think I'm possessed by an evil spirit.

Can you please exorcise it? I see.

What are your symptoms? I can't get girls.

Since the day I was born, I have never once had a girlfriend.

I'm sure it's because of an evil spirit.

Yes.

It's definitely an evil spirit.

I'll exorcise it.

Please, have a seat over there.

First, I'll cut your hair.

It's easy for evil spirits to possess hair.

Next, I'll massage your neck and face.

That will improve lymphatic circulation, removing swelling and evil spirits.

Finally, I'll apply exorcising wax and holy water, which evil spirits hate.

TREATMENT ROOM Exorcism complete! Starting tomorrow, you'll get women without even trying.

That'll be 2,800 yen for the exorcism.

Okay.

Your change is 200.



- Thank you.



- Thank you so much! Thank you.

That will never get you girls.

Then, should I use telepathy? Telepathy? You mean the power to communicate from far away and read people's minds? Why do you ask? You want to read someone's mind, don't you? It's a girl, isn't it? Dang, you're easy to read, Mob.

So, that's why you joined the Bodybuilding Club! MOB 65% Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't do it on purpose.

I know.

I remember the promise you made.

You promised not to use your power on people.

Exorcism +2,800 I have made almost no money this month! Maybe I should quit.

Please, come in! Dang! It's just a kid.

Excuse me It says "Ghosts Etc.

Agency.

" Do you also handle psychic powers? Psychic powers? I'm an Esper.

What? You're just a kid.

Get out! I'm sorry.

I couldn't help it.

I'm frightened by my powers.

Sometimes, I can't properly control them.

Sometimes, they get out of hand.

When I saw your sign, I thought you might be like me, sir.

If I try, I can see ghosts, too.

Listen.

Even though we have a power that nobody else has, it doesn't change the fact that we're still just human.

Good looks.

Intelligence.

Smelly feet.

Just like those, psychic powers are just another human characteristic.

All you can do is accept your individuality and live optimistically.

So just because you have that power, doesn't mean you should flaunt it.

Don't use it on people.

What I mean is Be a good guy! That's all.

Okay! I promise! I won't flaunt my power or use it on people.

I will become a good guy! So, can I use it to read a girl's mind? Can't you see I'm recalling fond memories? Get a clue! I'm totally clueless.

Even if I read her mind, it will be absolutely meaningless.

Pardon me! You there, young man.

I see you're troubled.

It's obvious you're troubled.

I can tell, because you're not smiling.

I'm not particularly troubled.

Right.

If you want to solve your troubles, then come with me.

I'm sorry, but I'm on my way home.

You're troubled about your family? Or your studies? Or maybe it's romantic trouble?

- How did you know?

- Okay, come with me.

I'm sorry, but I'm on my way home.

You'll get girls.

I'll go.

Shigeo! Oh, Ritsu.

Where are you going? I'm going to go have my troubles solved.

Don't go, Shigeo!

- Why not?

- Don't go, Shigeo! "(LOL)"? What Is The New Cult (LOL) That Is Gaining Followers So Rapidly? Intriguing.

I know (LOL).

The head of that cult is some kind of evil spirit.

He could be an Esper.

You think he has the power to brainwash like I do? I got it.

I'll check it out.

(LOL) WORSHIP SERVICE Our (LOL) was established by our holy leader, Mr.

Ekubo, in order to save humanity.

Right now, it's the trendiest cult around.

It's the telepathy! Stop! Mr.

I have brought three new members today.

I see.

I'm glad to see that our missionary work is bearing fruit.

Now, then the three unhappy souls who were brought here, please step forward.

Come on.

Step forward.

Step forward! Come on! Come on, everyone.

Step forward.

What's this? It's obvious all three of you are unhappy.

The cause is perfectly clear.

You are not smiling.

Laugh! If you're always smiling, you'll be happy.

That is the teaching of (LOL).

You, young lady.

What has made you unhappy lately? Excuse me? Well I'm the only member of my club, so it might be terminated.

How awful! I can see why you have lost your smile! But, don't you worry.

This mask is imbued with my power.

Once you wear it and are cured, you'll be able to smile again! Cut that out!

- Let go!

- Hands off her! Tome! Cut it out! Let go of me! No! MOB 75% What do you think, everyone? Doesn't she have a magnificent smile? What? What's going on? This isn't any fun, but I can't stop laughing.

Congrats! You look much better now! Oh, no.

Not at all.

You're a lot prettier! Such a dazzling smile! It's so bright! What the heck is going on? I sense something! I can totally feel it! Everyone, including me, is laughing! For some reason, I feel incredibly happy! Okay.
