MARIN KITAGAWA

[MARIN]
It's Marin.

Hey, Juju.

What do you want?

[MARIN]
Sorry for calling so randomly.

Random, indeed.

- Blunt as ever, huh?
- Wait.

Did she say--

Marin's actually
talking to Juju.

[MARIN]
Are you outside right now?

[JUJU] Yes, I'm out
shopping with my family.

[MARIN]
Look at you out and about.

Oh, yeah.

I was at a cosplay event
working as a photographer.

They're like--

[JUJU]
So you bought a camera.

Yep. Also, pretty soon

we're going to do
a Coffin group cosplay.

Oh.

The horror game, right?

Are you into the game, too?

No. I don't have any
interest in it.

However, Shinju loves
everything horror.

Oh, I gotcha.

Well, we're doing a group
cosplay of it next Sunday.

Next Sunday?

Will your cosplay
be done in time?

Is Wakana Gojo making it?

Well, I'll actually be using
a retail costume this time.

So Juju--

What now?

With this group cosplay

we still need
two more people for it.

Would you join us?

No!

[laughs] Dude

finish my freakin' sentence!

You know perfectly well that
I only cosplay for myself.

I still have zero intention
of getting involved

with other cosplayers.

If you need more people
can find them elsewhere.

[chuckles] She said no.

I knew it.

Why are you happy about it?

[sighs]

[SHINJU]
Hey, sis!

Hmm?

Thanks for waiting.

Mom said to go
and meet up with Dad.

OK?

All right.

[SHINJU]
Were you on the phone?

Yes.

Marin Kitagawa called me.

What? Really?

She wanted me to join
her Coffincosplay group.

Oh, my gosh, you're
doing a Coffincosplay?

That's so cool!

Wow! I'm so excited.

I can't wait to see
what you come up with.

There's Mira and Rose
and Claire, Emma, Sophia

and Charlotte, too.

You would look so amazing
as any one of them.

You guys are probably
sh**ting the dinner scene.

That part is
so incredibly iconic.

I almost forgot-- the title
screen when you beat it!

There are so many
scenes I'd love to see!

It's a group sh**t, so you'll
be in the studio, right?

I swear not to get in the way

but I'd love to come and watch
if the others are OK with it.

Oh, I'm so excited about this!

I declined their request.

When I did it for Blaze

it was for the Black Lily
costume and studio fee.

It wasn't bad, but I won't do
another group cosplay

even if Wakana Gojo
is making the costumes.

If it's not a magical girl, I--

[grim music]

Oh.

[playful music]

Oh, right.

That's my bad.

I totally misunderstood before.

I thought I could
see Coffincosplays.

I'm so sorry.

Ah.

EPISODE 21: BECAUSE I DON'T
INTEND TO SLEEP TONIGHT

[gasping]

You-- you're gonna
join our group cosplay?

Uh-huh.

[MIYAKO]
I'm cosplaying with Juju.

More importantly, I can't
believe you really exist.

[JUJU]
Well, I do!

[MIYAKO] You're
as beautiful and adorable

as you are in your pictures!

I bet you don't even
touch them up, do you?

[MARIN]
You're so cute!

I can't stop staring!
Yep, yep, yep, yep!

[WAKANA] Kitagawa seems
super happy about this.

[chuckles]
So does Juju's sister.

I know, right? I know, right?

- Hey, Juju.
- Mm.

Where's your fit from?
I love it.

Not sure I could pull
it off like you do

but I crossplay as a hobby.

OMG.

So cute!

Rojina and Hana
Tenbo are great.

They'll have stuff
in this style.

[AMANO]
Thanks a lot!

If it'd be all right by you

could I see
the picture as well?

All right.

I'm gonna use the bathroom.

Could I scoot by you, Gojo?

Sure.

[door closes]

[sighs]

Hey, Juju, how many
followers do you have?

[gasps]

SHION NIKAIDO

You have 210

I guess your Black Lily
did go viral.

Then again, you always
do crazy numbers online.

Those pics were so adorable!

Your expressions looked great.
Your costume did, too.

Really?

[JUJU] Well, I actually had
Wakana Gojo make that cosplay.

You made that one, Wakana?

[WAKANA]
Yeah!

[AKIRA] I love all
of your photos, Juju.

Are you working with a pro?

[JUJU]
No, I'm not.

Oh, really?

They look professional.

Though now that I
see you in person

you're as cute as your photos.

But that's not all there is.

Whoever's taking your photos
really admires you

and they're aware
of all your strengths.

They work extra hard to capture
all your best angles.

That way, you look even cuter.

It's obvious to anyone
who sees them.

That's probably why
people love them.

Mm.

[soft hissing]

[squealing]

[MIYAKO]
Let me guess.

You're the photographer

That's right.

She takes every shot.

Uh huh, I take all of them.

[whimpering]

Oh, that is so cool!
Do you go to any events?

Huh? No, I just enjoy being
my big sister's photographer.

[SUZUKA] It really is
fun taking photos, right?

Yeah!

Uh--

[MIYAKO]
Stare.

Hey, Shinju.

Huh?

So be Mira?

Huh? [screams]

Are you asking me to
cosplay as Mira for your group?

Great idea!

You'd totally k*ll
it as Mira, Shinju.

We only need one more
to be a full group.

Help us!

But Mira, well, she's--
she's the protagonist!

What about Gojo?

I'd be way too embarrassed.

But you should, though.

You've cosplayed
before, haven't you?

Yes.

But it was only one time.

[MIYAKO]
You don't wanna be Mira?

Oh, no.

I love Mira a whole lot.

Thing is, I don't know
if I should cosplay her.

I think I'd be way too
tall to pull it off.

Gotcha. If that's your worry

Just leave everything to me.

That settles it.

Shinju will be Mira.

I'll go as Charlotte.

Akira, Sophia.

Amane will be Emma.

Marin will be Rose.

And Juju is our Claire.

[WAKANA]
Miyako.

Huh?

I won't personally
be cosplaying

but is there anything I
can help you out with?

Oh, for sure!

I really wanna sh**t
the dinner scene

so there will be a ton
of props involved.

Thanks, Gojo!

[WAKANA]
You got it!

I'd love to try
making some props.

[MIYAKO] The question is, what
should we have you work on?

Though since you've
never played Coffin

I doubt you'd know
what props we'd need.

If you stop by my place

Wow, thanks so much.

Does the game
take long to beat?

Nope, it's super quick.

Just seven hours.

Seven?

Thank goodness
tomorrow is Sunday.

[SUZUKA]
Hey, Wakana?

Yeah?

When you finish it

tell me what you thought?

I'd really love
to hear your thoughts.

Give me a call

Pretty, please?

I can do that.

Um, I'd love to hear
your thoughts, too.

[MIYAKO] Cool. We can
decide what he's going to make

once he finishes the game.

I'm going to the bathroom.

OK.

Going to smoke?

Mm-hmm.

I'll join you for that.

OK. I'll take a bathroom break.

[MIYAKO] Once everyone's back

since you've still got
to go to ACOS, Marin.

[MARIN] Yep!

By the way, Shinju?
- Yes?

I totally cosplayed Rei-sama
from PrezHost and performed

at our school's cultural fair.

[MIYAKO AND SUZUKA]
Rei-sama from PrezHost?

Have you been keeping
secrets from me, Marin?

Why didn't you tell me?

Their cosplays hit different

You could save
lives with that look!

[MIYAKO, SUZUKA]
Marin, the pics!

Show us now!

We're begging!

The thing is

or take pics at the pageant.

I also had zero time
to take any selfies

because of the time
crunch and all

the cleaning up we had to do.

Suzuka!

So Marin, for science, which
Rei-sama outfit did you do?

Don't tell me--

Obvi, the bento scene fit.

[croaks]

[dramatic whooshing]

[screaming]

You're referring to the suit
Rei Kogami wore that made

every girl lose their mind!

You're brilliant!

That's perfection!

But you didn't document
any of it, you moron!

You won the thing!

Save me!

[dramatic music]

[AKIRA]
Your family gets it.

You're so lucky.

I'd never argue
with you on that.

Count your blessings.

My parents look down on manga.

I live on my own now

They would toss my stuff.

[sighs] That sucks.

A similar thing happened
with my ex-girlfriend.

I dumped her

Good for you.

There's more to life
than that headache.

[inhales]

[exhales]

Oh.

Want a cig?

To be honest, I don't smoke.

[chuckles]

What's up with Marin?

Do you not like her?

[laughs] It's not like
you were being subtle.

And you've gotten very chatty
now that she's not here.

Ah!

Wakana.

Think he caught all that?

I'm sorry.

I just happened
to be walking by.

Yeah.

Don't worry about it.

[door closes]

[AKIRA] Of course
you're concerned.

- Huh?
[AKIRA] You're her friend.

I'm sorry.

I can explain.

[gentle music]

[breathes in] I--

I don't want to be her buddy.

I don't want to talk to her.

I don't want her near me.

I just...

I can't do it.

[JUJU] I had a feeling they'd
choose the dinner scene.

And it seems I was correct.

I honestly don't think
I can go through with this.

[sighs]

This sucks.

Oh, just in time!

Welcome back!

[whooshing]

[shimmering]

I can't wait.

Aren't you excited?

So excited, so excited.

Uh-huh.

Super thrilled.

What am I going to do?

[WAKANA]
You ready?

[MARIN]
You know it!

Let's use the main room.

That's where we've
got the big TV.

[mysterious music]

I don't get it.

You're scared of horror
movies

but have no trouble
with this game?

The art in Coffinis totes
adorbs, so I'm chilling.

Hold up.

Isn't your grandpa going
to get worried if you

don't make it home soon?

It's fine.

He's not at home
right now either.

Huh?

[WAKANA] He stays over at my
cousin's place on the weekends.

They live near his
chiropractor's office.

After his appointment, he
spends the night with them

and then goes straight
to the workshop the next day.

[MARIN] You mean he's
not working at home?

[WAKANA]
Sometimes he does

but he's been busy
at the workshop lately.

[MARIN]
So no one at home? I see.

[shimmering]

Does that mean you
can stay over late?

So approximately how
long do I got with you?

Mm, I shouldn't
stay out too late.

You wanna spend the night?

Huh?

Come again?

[giggles] You goober.

That was a joke.

Yeah.

Of course.

She looks cool.

THIS GAME IS NOT SUITABLE
FOR THOSE WHO ARE SENSITIVE

TO INTENSE EXPERIENCES.

SAVE COMPLETE

[lighthearted music]

I can see why all of you
love this game so much.

Watching them work and share
their meals together

it really feels
like you're spending

a day in the life of a nun.

They aren't related
by blood, but they're family.

They always support each other.

Though their days
are all the same

it's interesting
to watch their bonds

and love for one another grow.

Huh, it isn't really
a horror game.

The slice of life aspect
reminds me a lot of SuccIDK.

Geez, I could play peaceful
games like this all day.

Oh, yeah, I need
to try on my costume!

[WAKANA]
Almost forgot.

[twinkling]

How's the fit looking?

You dig?

You look wonderful.

The accessories are
really well done.

The size is perfect.

That makes it easy.

Definitely.

We'll iron it out later

and then you'll
be all good to go.

OK!

Hmm.

One wrong turn

I don't want you

She has a point, though.

If I catch a cold

and that's the last
thing I want to happen.

Good.

It's safer this way.

Let's get you some duds

bottoms that will fit you.

You should cop a toothbrush.

Spending the night.

She's right about the walk.

And it would be rude not
to take her up on her offer.

But spending the night?

It-- it feels like
a line I shouldn't cross.

It wouldn't be so bad
if Kitagawa's father was here.

[heart thumping]

But staying the night
with her alone

it makes me feel like I'm
doing something wrong.

My chest is so tight

Hurry it up!
