01x07 - Episode 7

[bunniefuu]

One, two, three, four!

Can you see the white wings

on my back?

Nobody can steal my wings.

"Cheese Ring"

"Lucifer: Devoted to Coco.

Coco is mine."

"Message from Lucifer"

Great performance.

I didn't see you

when you left today,

so look out from your window.

No way

Why?

Why does he know where my flat is?

5,821 yen.

It's in the red this month

because one customer

puts everything on his tab.

I know. I understand.

You can control your low spirits by

focusing on the numbers.

It's like transcribing a sutra.

6,156 yen.

Okay, go!

Gosh! You've messed up

my calculation!

But I guess in the end,

men are attracted to

dangerous women like Maria.

Just so you know, I got over

Mr Akechi a very long time ago.

You know, she jumped off a cliff,

and rescued Mr Akechi from a fire!

What is she, an Avenger?

I'm no match for her.

I am Mary Magdalene,

the woman who dreams

to share her last supper with you.

Until that day,

we will continue to live.

After seeing that

I forgot

that I'm just a cook.

To sum up, from now on,

you won't be Mr Akechi's assistant.

You'll be a cook.

Yes, I'll be a cook.

That means

you want to stay with him?

There is a unique reason

for you to be here.

I want to have

someone who cooks well

by my side all the time.

That's but he

Keep finding excuses and can't

get over an unrequited love,

you're the typical foolish woman!

But he

Can't you even say,

"I'll never see him again?"

But he

Welcome.

Coco!

Ichigo.

She's pretty!

Nice to meet you.

Stalker?

Coco is Ichigo's classmate

from high school,

she remembers that

Ichigo had told her about you,

so she contacted Ichigo

and said she wanted to talk to you.

Then Nigou, why are you telling me

this and not Ichigou?

Because I'm just a cook,

so I want to draw a line.

Draw a line?

Yes, draw a line.

A line between what and what?

Of course it's

Can you talk about that

another time?

We'll hold a concert next week too,

when I think about him

coming again

If you're the victim of a stalker,

you should call the police first.

They will talk to you for free.

Not the police. If I talk to them,

my parents will find out.

Parents will find out?

Coco keeps it a secret

from her parents

that she's an underground idol.

Don't you?

Most of the fans of Bakuan

are adults,

and we are like a family.

But that guy

suddenly started to come to our

concerts and events half a year ago.

He doesn't know any rules

or manners of "dol-ota"－

Too many words I don't know.

Ichigou, interpret.

Sorry, I'm stupid,

I couldn't help

No, it's okay! He's just too old.

I know what you mean, so it's fine.

But part of it is my fault.

At where I work part-time

- You're the other day's

- Eh?

You came to our concert

the other day, right?

Whoa, are you kidding me?

I didn't recognise you

when you wear glasses.

An idol is working part-time

Since that day, he's been

coming to every concert.

He waits for me to leave every time.

Last night, he even came to my home.

He probably categorises you

as something else now.

From an idol,

an unreachable angel on the stage,

to a common, angelic girl.

No way!

You're sleeping?

Good night.

The arrogant monster

is trying to tear off Coco's wings.

Her beautiful, white angel wings.

If you were to be k*lled tomorrow,

what would be

the last thing you eat?

"Episode 7"

What the heck is this bizarre scene?

I've heard rumours, but this?

Maybe the close distance

is what attracts people.

That being said,

being approachable is the selling

point of underground idols,

so there's a risk of

fans losing control

and turning into stalkers,

like this time.

The girls chose to be idols,

and they must continue

to feed the monsters

the sweet fruit called dreams.

All the more if she's an angel

who has white wings.

Thank you.

- I'll buy three.

- Only three? Is that enough?

You're joking!

Well

I'm not here today

as your assistant,

I feel obliged

because I introduced Coco to you,

- moreover

- Why is he here?

Mr Katono?

Mr Akechi!

Akechi!

You're a Bakuman too?

"Bakuman"?

It means a fan of Baku-on Angels.

I'm just here with Mr Katono.

Despite his appearance,

Mr Katono likes underground idols.

I don't like underground idols,

I only love Miwawa!

And I only love you, Mr Akechi!

I'm afraid I'm not familiar

with entertainment like this.

I'm Coco's classmate

back in high school,

so I invited Mr Akechi to come.

Coco?

Mr Katono, why don't you

ask her to introduce you?

Idiot! I'm only a fan!

If I pull strings,

Miwawa and I won't be

purely an idol and a fan anymore!

There's a distance between us

forever! Got it?

What's the matter?

Well

You always cheer for me, don't you?

You recognise me?

Thank you.

Actually, my friend is

Coco's high school classmate.

- What a coincidence.

- He totally wants to impress.

Wow! I feel a sense of kinship!

Your distance!

Let's go, Takahashi.

I'll go to your next concert too.

Keep up the good work.

I'm expecting you!

Dear me.

Thank you. See you.

Here.

You've come today too?

Thank you.

Coco-meow, you tweeted that

you loved desserts.

Yes How kind of you.

Well then,

thank you for coming today.

Hang on. Eat them now.

They're sold for

a limited period of time.

They're sold out in Tokyo,

so I went to Nagoya to buy them,

aren't I amazing?

Please don't do that.

Huh?

"No food souvenir allowed,"

it's written there.

Ah, I'm not just a fan.

Right, Coco-meow?

Hey.

I'd like to buy 20 CDs,

may I take 20 Instax photos?

Yes.

Oh? Is that Michelle Barron's

chestnut tarts?

I love them too.

By the way, the limited edition

can be bought at their main shop

in Ginza anytime.

Who are you?

Looking at the colour of my suit,

obviously I'm Coco's crazy fan.

Oh, you want photos?

This way, please.

Hey.

Thank you for just now.

He's the stalker, as I thought.

Thank goodness

the private detective is here!

It made us feel a bit better.

Coco, luckily your classmate is

a detective's assistant.

No! I'm not his assistant,

but a cook in the neighbourhood

Mr Akechi,

would you be my bodyguard

outside concert hours too?

He knows where I live

and where I work part-time,

he'll surely come again.

That means the whole day?

Oh, no. What should I do?

Who knows?

How about your home,

Ichigou Kobayashi?

No! Unlike your home,

my home is small.

- What about your office, then?

- Yes?

Mr Detective, please!

May I stay with her?

It's scary to be on my own.

I'm worried about Coco too.

- Hey

- I'll pay for that.

Maybe I can't pay you now,

but I'll work until I can pay you.

Mr Detective, please protect us.

All right!

Mr Akechi, this

This is the sum of how much

you've put on your tab.

So far you've bought 80 bentos,

the total cost is 52,000 yen.

The money I spent on petrol used for

your transportation is 47,190 yen.

The number of hours

I worked as your assistant

times the average hourly wage

equals to 58,300 yen,

the total sum is 157,490 yen.

This is how much you owe me, right?

Instead of paying me back,

please accept Coco's request.

Please!

- Please!

- Please!

You all got something wrong.

You think I would take the job

for just the small sum of money?

Small sum?

First of all,

I'm interested in this job

because my invaluable cook

introduced her friend to me

for her sake.

My cook knows what I like very well.

What will happen

if I make her unhappy?

What if she refuses to

cook for me again?

My stomach will be turned adrift.

So

Well, I have no other choice.

Amazing

Thank goodness

- What a relief

- Thank goodness!

Come in.

Thank you.

Look! It's so stylish!

Put your things here.

Okay

The style of this place

matches his suit perfectly!

I know! It's so like him!

Mr Akechi.

Thank you for helping Coco.

And

You said I was your invaluable cook

and I'm honoured.

I had to exaggerate it a bit,

or they wouldn't get it with

their vocabulary from another world.

Yes?

However, I said yes impulsively

just now,

there is a huge problem

if I act as their bodyguard.

Problem?

Is it inconvenient?

Your concerts are always held

at night, right at dinner time.

If I act as your bodyguard

at that time

You want me to prepare your dinner?

Now, all problems are solved.

Ladies, you must be hungry, right?

Yes

Ichigou.

I'll cook now. Wait here.

Wow!

It smells so nice!

I'm starving!

It'll be ready soon.

- Hina, don't eat too much.

- I won't!

Ichigo! I brought it here!

Thank you, Momoko!

There you go!

Our family is a real estate agency,

but we sell futons too.

Thank you

- Momoko, you'll stay for dinner?

- I've been waiting for that!

Help me.

Yes

Oh, Mr Akechi, don't go further

than the partition here.

And don't peek either.

It's like the dorm

of a girls' school.

Isn't it nice?

You must be happy

to have so many pretty girls here.

No, unfortunately I'm not interested

in little girls.

Why? You don't like

young girls like us?

Or do you like older ladies?

I give up.

What's this?

Ichigo's Special

Neapolitan Omelette.

Eat this and cheer up.

- Wow!

- It looks tasty!

Let's take a photo together.

Okay, Bakuan.

Dear me.

I'll upload it.

- Okay.

- Okay.

- All right?

- Thank you.

"Miwawa (Bakuan)"

Bon appetit

So good!

Glad you like it.

Not bad.

Yay! I got a "not bad" for

the first time after so long!

Mr Akechi always says, "Not bad,"

when he eats something delicious.

- It'll get popular!

- Will it?

- It will get popular?

- Will it?

Is there an adult

who works as your manager?

I work as our manager.

Hina founded Bakuan two years ago,

she asked me to join right after

I left Toyama for Tokyo.

Toyama? Yellowtail there is

delicious in this season.

By the way, I came from Oita

and Coco from Fukushima.

Oh? I thought you were

Ichigou Kobayashi's classmate?

I worked as a model

when I was in middle school,

and I came here during high school.

Coco was very popular.

I've seen you in magazines too!

Recently, we can finally sell

our concerts' tickets

without going to sell them

ourselves.

A quite well-known producer

will come to our next concert.

Wow! Amazing!

It feels like we're finally

a step closer to our dream.

That's why now is the critical time.

Mr Akechi, we count on you

to be Coco's bodyguard.

This is a huge responsibility.

Yes, it is! Let's do our best!

No, I mean, please do your best.

What's the matter?

The loo.

Ichigou Kobayashi,

I'm afraid your friend

has an eating disorder.

Eating disorder?

There are calluses on her knuckles.

It probably is bulimia.

She eats to take her mind off

the excessive stress,

to make up for that,

she thrusts her fingers into

her mouth to empty her stomach.

Repeating that will leave

teeth marks on her knuckles.

If calluses are formed,

it means for a long time before

she was stalked,

she's been feeling stressed out.

Actually, when she was

in high school,

she'd been hospitalised

for having lost too much weight.

Then she quit being the magazine's

exclusive model after that.

Maybe being in the limelight

puts her under severe stress.

Does it?

I'll go out for a bit.

"Lucifer"

I want to eat it with you.

Found you.

It's the guy

who came to the concert, right?

Coco.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

I just can't sleep.

I've been thinking about

things like our next concert.

You must be nervous.

You need warm milk at a time

like this, with a bit of sugar too.

It'll let you sleep well.

Oh, he's out of milk! I'm so sorry.

It's fine. Thank you.

I'm so sorry.

- Somehow it's nice.

- What is?

You can't hide it from me.

Ichigo, you have a crush

on Mr Akechi.

What?

What

You and Mr Akechi are like

an old married couple.

Oh, stop it!

Oh? You're still up?

Coco can't sleep.

This is Da Vinci's

"The Last Supper" isn't it?

Yeah.

Coco, you know so much!

I love old European paintings.

There are many paintings

of angels, right?

I've been collecting them

since I joined Bakuan.

Da Vinci painted several paintings

of angels when he was young too.

I would like to see them.

Okay, Kurukku.

Da Vinci's angel paintings.

Kurukku.

- Do you mean "Annunciation"?

- This one, maybe?

This painting is found.

Dear me,

admiring a painting on smartphone?

What is this world coming to?

Mr Akechi, do you like Da Vinci too?

No, it's what the not holy,

but evil woman Maria sent me.

From all around the world.

"Mary Magdalene"

Mary Mag

Mary Magdalene.

You must be nervous

before your concert.

Have some warm milk

with a little sugar added.

Ichigou, make her some warm milk.

"Maria Magdalena"

"Search"

The blonde girl came out alone.

It's Coco, isn't it?

Bringing several girls with him?

What a playboy.

Then Shall we k*ll all the girls?

You don't hesitate to say

frightening things lately, Ringo.

Do I?

I didn't change though.

I just say what's on my mind

casually now.

Say what you think and carry it out.

Poor people who can't do something

so simple are everywhere.

In this world.

"Maria"

"Mary Magdalene"

What?

You hate someone so much

that you want to k*ll him.

Come to Maria's Room.

"Maria's Room"

"Maria's Room"

Oh, my lovely guest.

Welcome.

You're an angelic blonde girl.

Excuse me I

Don't be afraid, my angel.

Who do you want to k*ll?

She hung up.

Everyone does that at first.

"Akiba BOX"

"Baku-on Angels' mini album

will be on sale!"

"Staff Only"

You aren't allowed to wait

for her arrival.

I want to talk to Coco-meow.

Coco-meow hasn't been

returning home,

she hasn't been working too.

Is her manager criticising her

because of our relationship?

You should blame

the guy in the red suit!

What bad luck for Coco!

It's your fault.

We aren't famous

and we aren't popular,

but we have our pride as idols.

There's absolutely no way we'll be

in a relationship with a fan.

If you want a relationship with

an idol, find someone else.

Hey!

Hina!

Her wrist is fractured.

That's horrible!

What's wrong with him?

Why do we have to go through this?

The producer was supposed to come

and the concert was important!

Sorry, it's my fault.

No! I made a mistake.

I had no idea he was that crazy!

This is attempted m*rder. You'd

better report to the police at once.

No! Don't tell the police.

If my parents find out,

they'll take me back to Oita.

But he almost k*lled you!

Ichigou Kobayashi,

report it to the police.

Wait a minute!

We promised each other

that we would stand on

Budokan's stage together.

We've given up many things we enjoy

for that dream.

We work several part-time jobs too.

Hina has borrowed several

hundred thousand yen for Bakuan.

Miwa turned down a major idol group

and risks her career on Bakuan.

We cannot give up now!

Which one is more important,

your life or your dream?

No matter how important your dream

is, it's pointless if you're dead!

And my life is pointless

if I'm not an idol!

I envy you, Ichigo.

Even if your bento food truck

business fails,

you can take over

your family's bento business.

But we can't do that.

If this fails, our life is over.

He might hurt you this time.

I'll be fine.

Please don't report it

to the police.

"Maria's Room"

"Calling"

My angel, I'm happy

you've come to visit again.

- I

- The arrogant monster

loves your white wings very much,

doesn't he?

You must get rid of him at once,

or your wings will be torn off.

If that happens,

you'll never be able to fly again.

Why

I walked past her room

in the hospital

and heard your conversation

by chance.

Come, let's k*ll him,

so that you can shine on stage.

You're an angel

who can make many people smile.

Isn't it unforgivable

that you and your friends' dream is

ruined because of one monster?

My sweet angel.

Let's use the way

that pleases him most

to take him to heaven.

You want to cook, Coco?

What a surprise.

You burnt the rolled omelette

during our cooking class.

Well, I'm here with you anyway

Coco

You know,

actually, when I saw you working

hard as a model in high school,

I thought, I wanted to

open a restaurant myself.

You're joking!

I don't understand

the world of idols,

but I hope you can hang in there.

Thank you, Ichigo.

Hey.

What do we have for lunch today?

Sorry, but this is the Neapolitan

Omelette we'll have for dinner.

But we had it the other day.

Hina wants to have this.

She'll be discharged today.

I see.

But Ichigou Kobayashi,

your regular customer is hungry,

fry the Chikuwa for lunch first.

Buy the Chikuwa yourself then.

I didn't buy any ingredient for

bentos today.

Pardon?

Why?

Is this

Can you get changed?

Is he keeping an eye on you?

I'm at your flat now.

He's scary!

It escalated.

All right

Will Coco come to our side?

Don't you understand

how she feels more than me?

I want to tell Coco

that just by k*lling

the person she wants to k*ll

is going to set her heart free.

That's right.

And in this city, there are still

many people that should be k*lled.

Ms Maria.

Ringo,

have you brought the delicious

Aomori souvenir I asked for?

Yes.

It'll be damaged easily

if it isn't processed.

I've got some

good Spanish olive oil,

so I soaked it in oil.

She will deliver it to Coco later.

"She"?

You mean her?

Yeah.

Yeah?

She will?

How amusing!

It's the first time

I have so much fun with my family!

Hina, congratulations on

your hospital discharge!

Congratulations!

Coco, Miwa, I'm sorry.

I got injured when it matters most.

Hina, it isn't your fault.

It's all that person's fault.

Okay, let's dig in!

Coco helped me cook

the dishes tonight!

What? But Coco can't cook at all!

Amazing

I've prepared the perfect wine

for the rookie cook.

The injured will have grape juice.

Grape juice.

My love,

are you also having dinner now?

Surrounded by the lovely angels.

The dinner must be pretty enjoyable.

But be careful, Mr Detective.

Let's take a photo. One, two

Among them,

there is one fallen angel.

- Neapolitan!

- Dear me,

- So good!

- what a noisy dinner.

Come on, stop taking photos

and eat now.

Okay

- Is that okay?

- Yeah.

I want to have wine now!

I'll put it in front of the entrance

at 2:00 am.

I'll treat you to fine wine

when it's cured.

- Yay!

- I want that!

I want to drink that too.

- You can't drink yet.

- Why?

"Edogawa Detective Office"

My sweet angel,

Protect the paradise

with your own hands.

Come on! Get up, girls!

Today is the red-letter day you hold

your comeback concert. Come on!

Oh?

Where's Coco?

Oh, it's from Coco.

She'll take something from her flat

and go to the club.

Oh, thank goodness!

But she left alone?

Call her.

Mr Akechi?

Why did you go out

without telling us?

I'm sorry,

I should have told you, Mr Akechi.

I'll return

by the time of our concert.

Beautiful Lady Maria,

can you see the wings on my back?

As you told me,

I will go get rid of the monster

as an angel.

Coco-meow!

Coco-meow!

Coco-meow?

Sorry I called you out suddenly.

I was worried,

you didn't reply to my messages at

all and you haven't come home.

I wasn't feeling well,

so I was staying at my friend's.

Your friend?

You haven't had lunch, have you?

I made this as an apology.

I'm not good at cooking,

so maybe it doesn't taste very good.

But I put lots of effort into

making this, please try it.

Wow Really?

Wow, it looks absolutely delicious!

Bon appetit.

You won't eat it?

Coco-meow, is the red suit guy's

home the place you stayed at?

Why?

You've been cold to me

since that guy came.

Did you make this

because you feel guilty towards me?

Why would I?

Or is it poisoned?

You won't eat it?

Is it poisoned?

I made so much effort to

cook for you, Mr Lucifer

Oh, I'm sorry!

It was partly my fault too.

I felt lonely because I couldn't

get a hold of you,

so I couldn't help

Let's make up now.

Coco-meow,

I won't make you cry again.

Thank you.

Try it.

Open up.

So good! It's really delicious!

It tastes like you.

Well, I'll send you messages again.

Coco-meow.

I will treasure you,

so quit being an idol

and be my girlfriend.

Thank you.

Mr Lucifer

Please make me happy.

Well, do your best

at your last concert.

It'll be the last time

you see me perform too,

I'll do my best.

Thank goodness you're okay, Coco.

That guy hasn't come yet.

Mr Akechi is watching outside.

Thank goodness.

Coco?

I guess he won't come today.

He made Hina injured,

a normal person

wouldn't dare to come.

I don't think he's normal, though.

Isn't the vibe Coco giving off

different from usual?

Mr Akechi, it's the stalker!

Wait, we're still rehearsing!

Hina!

I'm Bakuan's Fallen Angel,

Coco.

Coco-meow

Can you see the wings on my back?

Nobody can steal them.

I'm going to fly in the sky

with this pair of wings!

Today, the Fallen Angel

will exile the arrogant monster

from paradise!

I was an angel held c*ptive,

and the heart of my true self

is set free now!

Coco?

I can be myself!

Don't tell me

You're the one who set me free.

You said I could be myself.

Maria!

The k*lling angel alighted.

Are you okay?

Call an ambulance!

Using the way that pleases

the arrogant monster most,

she got rid of him.

Hey, Akechi! What happened?

Today's concert is cancelled!

Don't let the audience in!

Why do you cancel it yourself?

This is

Send his vomit to forensics!

What? Is he poisoned?

"Tokyo Fire Department"

Mr Tabata!

Mr Tabata, can you hear me?

Coco

The matter became serious.

Yes, it did

Maria,

you're even bringing

my precious friend to your side?

Why didn't I realise earlier?

I should've been able to realise.

Hey, Akechi.

- He's been treated?

- Wait.

I can't let you go freely.

Mr Katono.

Why did you think

the man was poisoned?

You'll tell me that in detail.

It's the first floor

of the North Block.

Maria's target is finally

The bento shop's young lady.

Move in with me.

Tell him your feelings honestly.

All Maria Family members gather.

Because you don't leave him an inch.

Whose love will Akechi choose?

No, Mr Akechi!

I love you!
