01x07 - Love and Potato Chips!

[bunniefuu]

There, I'm done!

The shadow I saw kinda
looked like this!

Shino Sensei said he felt like he was
being controlled during that time, right?

Yeah.

So, does that mean…

there's someone behind it
pulling the strings?

But then it would be unusual
for the person

being controlled to have
a memory of that.

Besides, if you're going to
manipulate someone

you would have a purpose, right?

A purpose?

But all we have now are
just people going on a rampage.

That's why I'm wondering
if it's some kind of illness.

But if that's the case...

The fact that you're the only one
who can see it

doesn't make sense.

Damn it, we've wasted so much time,

thanks to Boruto and the others.

But maybe they had
some kind of emergency.

Don't let them fool you.

I guarantee that all they wanted to do
was get out of cleaning duty.

Who cares about those losers?

Let's go get something
sweet to eat!

Sweets from all over the world
are waiting for us!

Yay!

What's wrong, Miss Class Rep?

W-Well...

I thought I felt someone watching me.

No one's there.

O-Oh, sorry.

Who's there?

LOVE AND POTATO CHIPS

LOVE AND POTATO CHIPS
Isn't it obvious that
I'm losing weight?

I guess…so?

She's been like this ever since.

What?!

Are you saying
you're still being stalked?

We can feel someone watching,
but we can't see them.

I've been so anxious,
I haven't been able to eat properly.

Oh man!

Stalkers are sticky like natto
and I really hate it!

They just won't leave me alone!

I'll get him for sure this time!

Is it another incident?

Nah. Not everything is related
to each other, right?

POTATO CHIP FAIR

I hate it.

I can't believe
I ran out of potato chips!

I thought you weren't
"eating properly"?

Potato chips, potato chips!

MUGWORT AND
SWEET RED BEAN PASTE

That's sweet!

Why on earth would you buy that?

Because even if it knows it sucks,

it's still trying to compete
as a new product.

With no one buying it,

it's been ignored and shoved down
to the corner of the shelf.

That's why I have to accept
its challenge fair and square.

Ugh, that's sweet!

Y-Yeah, you're right.

You think he'll show up again today?

Sticky guys like that tend
to show up in

deserted places like this.

You're here!

Partial Expansion Jutsu!

What was that scream?

That was nearby!

What's she—?

What's she doing to
that timid-looking guy?!

Hey! Don't be so violent!

Huh?

Huh?

So this is the guy
you've been talking about?

That's right.

Hm? Come to think of it, you're...

You know him?

I'm pretty sure he's Magire
from the class next door.

With so few handsome guys
in the Academy,

I'd say he'd rank towards the top.

I can't believe he was really
following you.

Boruto, don't tell me, he's…

Nah, I don't see anything.

I don't sense anything weird
coming from him.

I see.

But that doesn't mean
we can just leave him be.

Hey! Why would you do
something like this?

Are you really Cho-Cho's stalker?

Why don't you say something?!

Silence, huh?

But seriously, following Cho-Cho?

You really have strange taste.

Oh, my!

I completely understand why
you would want to follow me, but...

I'm sorry. You and I are
like macarons and natto.

We're in totally different leagues—

You're wrong!

The person I was watching is…

Miss Sumire!

Oh no!

You mean, the Class Rep?

So that means,
the one he likes is...?

What? Huh? Oh my...

Phew...man, I'm good.

My plan to extract information
out of him was a total success.

You liar!

But in any case,
you went a little too far.

B-But, what was I supposed to do?

I-I just wanted to breathe
the same air as Miss Sumire!

Y-You're kidding.

O-Okay, so are we done here?

I'll just be on my way—.

We're not done here!

This may be your chance.

Huh?

You might as well tell her
how you feel right now.

What?!

W-What are you saying?

If you tell her
how you feel right now,

then I'll forgive you
for what you did.

And maybe even…

What? You serious?
You're gonna tell her?

I-I... I've liked you
for the longest time!

P-Please go out with me!

He really did it!

I'm sorry!

And he got rejected!

W-What the hell!

I did it because
you told me to!

I would've been better off
staying hidden!

Well, I knew this would happen.

You did?

Y-You're so cruel.

Here... Have one of these.
Cheer up.

You never know until
you step up to the challenge, right?

So now, you'll know
what to do next time.

Do you know what
I'm trying to say?

What the hell?
Are you messing with me?

Talk about rubbing salt
into a wound.

If he doesn't get it
then he's just a loser.

So sweet!

That'll be hard for him to swallow.

Come on, let's go.

Is he gonna be okay?

What happened to the guy
from yesterday?

Don't ask me.

I hear you're popular with the guys,
Miss Class Rep!

How do you know
about that already?

Namida! What's wrong?

T-The blackboard…

SUMIRE, I'M ALWAYS WATCHING YOU.

SUMIRE, I'M ALWAYS WATCHING YOU.
Whose idea of a prank is this?

Everyone, keep working
on your drawings.

W-What is going on?

It's him!

Boruto…apparently,
you-know-who was absent today.

What?!

No one's seen him.

No way! My intuition's never wrong.

What's this?

SUMIRE, YOU LOOK CUTE TODAY.

SUMIRE, I LOVE YOU.
I'M ALWAYS RIGHT BESIDE YOU.

SUMIRE, I LIKE YOU SUMIRE,
I LIKE YOU SUMIRE, I LIKE YOU.

That guy's the only one
who could have done this.

Yeah, that's for sure, but...

How did he do this?

Damn it, where is he?

Don't worry.

As long as we don't leave
the Class Rep by herself,

everything will be fine.

W-What the—?!

He's not fooling around, is he?!

You okay?

Damn!

It's pretty solid.

It might be dangerous staying
around here!

Let's go.

Hey! Wait, you guys!

NINJA TOOLS PREP ROOM

He can't find us here, right?

We ran super far,
so I'm sure we'll be fine.

W-What is this?

I can't see anything!

I-I'm going to open it now.

This way, you two!

Huh, where?

Ouch!

Sarada! Cho-Cho!

No!

Hold on!

Miss Class Rep! What's wrong?

Denki!

Are you okay—?

We're finally alone together.

We finally made it out!

Denki! What happened?

Did that guy do this too?

He's out of control.

Hey, where's the Class Rep?

Sorry...

Class Rep?!

Stop! Don't come near me!

What don't you like about me, Sumire?

That's enough!

Are you okay, Class Rep?

I knew it was you!

Could you guys not bother us?

We were finally alone together.

That's—!

It's that shadow.

You said he didn't have
anything yesterday!

I don't know
but right now it's there.

He may start rampaging.

You damn natto guy!
I'm gonna crush you!

Sumire... I'll get rid of
these guys right away, okay?

Watch out!

Thank you, Sarada!

Hey you!

H-Hey… What are we gonna do?

We're gonna have to
knock him out.

Hey!

We'll take you on.

Boruto...

All right.

What you'll do this time, Boruto?

Get away from the Class Rep!

Shut up, shut up,
shut up, shut up!

Don't interfere with me
and Sumire!

Disguise Jutsu…

He disappeared?!

I get it, he used this ninjutsu
to write on the blackboard.

Sumire is the only one
who can see me.

Whoa!

There's no way you guys
can see me.

Where is he?

– Whoa!
– Damn!

That's what happens
when you jump in without a plan!

Boruto!

We should come up with a plan—

I never stood out in a crowd.

But...Sumire was different.

She came over and talked
to someone like me!

Damn!

Whoa!

Hey, you!

Do you really think this is the way
to the Class Rep's heart?

Hey! Be careful!

Sneaking around and
doing stuff like this

won't make a lady notice you.

I picked these gross chips

because they sat on
the shelves forever.

What? P-Potato chips?

But you've hidden yourself

and you're not even out
on the shelf right now.

Even these potato chips are
stepping up to the challenge,

but you've just completely removed yourself
from the "chance-at-love-shelf!"

I did step up to the challenge!
But it didn't work.

So, there's no reason to go
back on the shelf!

Even up until now,
no one's ever noticed me.

No, you're wrong.

They've noticed.

I don't think
you've been able to hide…

that fact that you're a weak
and pathetic man.

Who would talk to a guy like that?

T-Then what do I do?

Think about why you have
your Disguise Jutsu.

Polish that skill and keep
stepping up to the challenge,

and become a guy
that people take notice of.

So you can become
a strong and dependable man!

It's delicious!

TOASTED SOY FLOUR
MUGWORT AND
SWEET RED BEAN PASTE
Right? You never know until
you step up to the challenge, right?

Then you'll know
what to do next time.

You're kinda handsome already,

so work on becoming an even better man
and come back to me.

Back to Cho-Cho?

All right!

What do you mean, "all right"?

You almost got stabbed, you know.

Huh? Share a bag of potato chips
and we all become friends.

That's just common sense.

It's disappearing...

What...have I done?

What the heck's going on?

Hey, Boruto.

We didn't have to knock him out
for him to go back to normal?

Yeah, it disappeared.

Um...I'm really sorry!

N-No... It's okay!

I'm terribly sorry!

I'll never hide in front
of Miss Sumire again.

Okay, okay!

You okay?

What's wrong with him?

Maybe we should take him
to the nurse's office?

You're right.

Boruto.

Boruto! What's wrong?

Oh! No, it's nothing!

Come on, let's all go home.

Guess that's it for this time.

Why did he go back to normal?

I guess it means that even
if you're mentally affected,

you can still go back to normal.

Come to think of it,
that happened with Denki too.

But why did he suddenly
become so gaunt?

It's just like when
you suddenly lose chakra.

Chakra?

Yeah, but it's not like
he used any substantial jutsu.

So...

You think chakra can
sometimes manifest itself

into a giant monster or something?

A monster?

Wait, hang on!

I'm not sure if it's chakra or what,

but I saw a monster like this.

You saw something amazing.

A-Anyway, I've never heard
of such a thing.

Do you think these incidents
are related to chakra?

People are losing chakra?

A number of people have
been taken to the hospital lately.

It's not clear if it's due to illness
or if it's human-induced...

but we should keep
an eye on this report.

Chakra's being targeted?

REPORT

REPORT
I've arranged for an investigation
with that possibility in mind as well.

I've arranged for an investigation
with that possibility in mind as well.

So it seems like Boruto
is able to see it, after all.

Yeah, that's right.

I'm pretty sure he said "a monster."

All right.

We'll continue
our investigation.

But...

Why's Boruto the only one
who can see it?

What's the matter?
Did something happen?

Well, Boruto's been acting…

Oh! I've got the fate of the world
on my shoulders!

The pearl-colored nightmare
has revealed my destiny!

There's nothing that
can escape the Byakugan,

the eye that unravels lies!
