Nee Sensei, Shiranai No? (Hey Sensei Don't You Know? / Hey Teacher, Don't You Know? / ねぇ先生、知らないの?)

"Hana and Riichi"

It is my job to create manga

that make girls happy.

Hanai sensei.

Sorry. Change this tone to a lighter one.

Yes.

My workplace is far from a girl's happiness.

However...

I think I have a switch within me.

You are so perfect you blind me

Hey Sensei, Don't You Know?

I'm not confident at all

That I'm a match for you

"Hana, Fumika Baba"

He likes me the way I am

"Riichi, Eiji Akaso"

I'm truly happy

"Nanase, Honoka Yahagi"

Please! Stay by my side forever!

"Kiritani, Masanari Wada"

"Jun, Tsuyoshi Furukawa"

"Koinuma, Ryubi Miyase" "Makoto, Hazuki Tanda"

"Hey Sensei, Don't You Know?"

"Episode one"

It's okay. Thank you very much.

Good work.

Thank you very much.

Are you okay to meet on Monday for the next storyboard?

Yes.

Thank you very much.

Good bye.

It's done!

So exhausted!

I apologize. I had some treats for you in the fridge. Excuse me.

I created short manga for the past four years

while working as an assistant for a senior manga artist.

I finally gained manga series that I've been longing for.

Once the series started, I couldn't handle it all on my own,

so I have two assistants supporting me.

This is Mako.

She likes to search the internet for good looking guys.

She's always dating a guy that's a bit no good.

It's coming. I'm becoming a female again.

Koinuma, a girl's manga loving male.

He is also known as "Koi-chan."

He loves sweet treats.

A sweet treat after a deadline... It works wonders.

Thank you again.

I'm sorry that it's always so rushed.

Don't worry about it. We created something good. So it's all good.

It helped me forget about my private life's issues.

Problems?

He was cheating on me...

Cheating? - Again?

How did you know he was cheating on you? You ran into him?

When I was looking through his SNS. This one woman commented a lot.

So I stalked her SNS, and it was there.

Your boyfriend? Were they in the same picture?

He's not in the picture, but all her posts are same places as his.

He's definitely with her!

Oh boy... It's because you investigated it...

Hey, Sensei! Are you thinking of using it?

What if Haruna

sees Ryuichi's female friend's SNS...

That's a good idea. Let's use it!

Sensei! Why do you always use my love life in your manga?

Don't talk to me!

I'll forget it.

It's ordinary.

This action is so far from Haruna's personality. It seems too abrupt.

Also this dialogue here,

it's totally deviated from her personality.

I've told you that before too, right?

This is Kiritani, deputy editor.

My drafts have been criticized a lot more

ever since Kiritani became in charge of me.

And here... This development is unrealistically convenient.

His comments are justified and I am grateful for that, but...

he doesn't sugarcoat anything so it makes me dizzy.

Could you fix it by tomorrow?

I will.

Is this based on your experience?

This SNS, did something like this happen to you?

Of course not. Kiritani, you know how I don't have a boyfriend.

Don't you want to fall in love?

Honestly, all your work seems

like a rehash of other popular manga.

Hanai, are you interested in people?

Manga artists who

don't deal properly with people won't last long.

Depending on next month's readers' feedback,

we may end your series.

I understand.

That's it for today.

If I had another day...

three more days... If I didn't sleep then...

then I might have created something better.

Creating manga is a repetition of that process.

As a result, less sleep,

less time for fashion, and less time to meet people.

Depending on next month's readers' feedback,

we may end your series.

It's not just Kiritani.

My family and friends have all said harsh things to me.

Are you okay being a manga artist?

Can you earn a living?

How long are you going to dream?

Even so, I never thought of quitting.

I've been working for this.

But there are things I do consider once in a while.

Fall in love like a regular girl,

and wear an outfit like this to go on a date.

Don't you want to fall in love?

Of course I want to fall in love!

That's all I create after all!

But that's not the life I chose for myself.

I sacrificed everything for manga--

Who is this ugly hag?

I've sacrificed it, but this is not acceptable!

I need to maintain a certain level of cleanliness,

so I won't bother the others.

Or I'll be finished as a woman, no as a person!

Welcome.

Excuse me, I don't have an appointment,

but do you accept walk-ins? I really want my hair washed...

Ah... oh no! I'm totally out of place.

I apologize...

we don't accept customers without an appointment.

Right. I'm sorry. It's okay.

Miss.

Will you let me do it?

Is it okay?

But Riichi...

It's fine. I just finished, so...

May I?

Wait! A good looking guy like him is going to cut my hair?

Oh no! I hope my hair doesn't stink.

I don't fit in here at all.

Is this hairstylist okay to deal with a customer like me?

How would you like your hair today?

Well...

If it's...

If it has a clean feel, then I'm okay with anything.

Clean feel?

I'm sorry.

Is it better to be more specific?

No, it's hard to describe what I want to such a stylish person.

Why did I come into this salon?

Lack of sleep has clouded my judgment.

Oh no! I can't look him in the eye...

What is it?

Then can you leave it to me?

Yes, please.

Do you always have your hair up?

Yes.

I always have it in a bun during work so it's out of my way.

Then this length would be good?
