Unicorn ni Notte (Riding a Unicorn / ユニコーンに乗って)

I recently started using a matching app, and I'm meeting my first match tomorrow.

Sorry for the wait.

- You must be Ms. Narukawa. - Yes, nice to meet you. I'm Narukawa.

I'm from Takayama. Shall we go then?

Yes.

Matching partner, you mean dinner?

I see. So she has some private business to attend to.

It's not love-related.

There's a site that matches entrepreneurs with investors.

We can get to know and talk to investors here,

and if they like our product,

they might invest with us.

Oh, yes, I see that. There's a site like this...

Hey, we have a lot of money right now... right?

Yes.

If we can't get financing from somewhere

and the rent on the building goes up,

our situation will be difficult.

So what does this Takayama do?

"Made his fortune in the temporary staffing business and is now an investor,

with investments ranging from 50 to 100 million."

Wow... so rich!

- Lord Takayama. - Lord Takayama.

Notice of management company change

- Takayama. - We've been expecting you.

Right this way, please.

I'm sorry. I made it.

You didn't have to come.

The fate of the company rests on whether he'll invest in us or not.

Two is better than one.

Well, thank you.

By creating a virtual school on the Internet like this,

it'll eliminate the educational disparity.

That is an overview of the Study Pony Campus.

We hope to expand our business

significantly from here on with this product as a pillar.

What do you think?

Interesting. I like it.

I've been waiting for a product like this for so long.

- What? - As you and your colleagues say,

it would be great if there was a place where everyone could learn freely and happily.

- I'm glad to hear that, thank you. - Why're you interested in education business?

Education is the foundation of everything.

If we provide quality learning and nurture the brightest minds,

we'll be able to create innovative new business opportunities.

And by investing in it, I personally will be enriched.

I see.

And of course, it's young entrepreneurs like yourselves

that I want to bring about innovations.

I look forward to discussing investment matters with you.

Please let me visit your office sometime.

Of course. Please come.

So you got these expensive-looking cookies as a gift, too?

- Lord Takayama is the best! - Yeah, he was a really nice guy.

- That's good, isn't it? - Yes.

Study Pony U's user count is almost at its goal,

and we're getting into it.

If we successfully get the investment,

we can finally start developing the Study Pony Campus full-scale.

Yeah, we can.

Mr. Takayama

Yes, this is Narukawa.

What?

"I'm coming home this Friday. I need to talk to you, Dad."

We have an emergency!

"We have an emergency!"

You really came to visit us.

Yes, knowing the workplace atmosphere

is an important factor in making an investment decision.

I see. This way.

Oh, crap. Let's clean some stuff up anyway.

- Please. - Crap, crap, crap.

- That mesh is too revealing. - Seriously?

- Put this on. - Thank you.

- Hurry up and finish that. - It's not worth doing now...

Just do it.

Come in.

Everyone, this is the investor, Mr. Takayama.

Nice to meet you and welcome.

Sorry for interrupting.

It's a free workplace typical of today's youth.

Ah... We value everyone's individuality.

Please excuse me.

Please, have a seat.

Thank you.

Excuse me.

This one is...

My apologies for the delay. My name is Kotori.

I'm Takayama.

Your suit is nice.

Thank you. It's custom-made.

Indeed. It looks good on you.

Mr. Kotori, you are also wearing a well-tailored suit.

Thank you very much.

I feel most comfortable in this clothing.

I understand. It's our generation.

Please.

Isn't it too hot to wear a suit in summer?

- Not again. You... - I'm sorry. He meant no offense.

Wearing a suit is also a sign of respect.

Taking the time and effort to make yourself presentable

is a sign that you care about the other person.

I see.

Delicious. Which tea is this?

That's Asakusaen green tea.

Really? No, it's really delicious.

I am relieved that there is someone like you, Mr. Kotori.

Ms. Narukawa, I'd like to hear more about what you have to say,

so this Friday night, how about dinner just us two?

- Friday night, right? - Yes.

It's okay. Thank you.

- Then I look forward to it. - So do I.

There's something nice about having a young lady as CEO.

- Well, goodbye then. - Thank you very much.

Mr. Kotori!

Good job.

Huh?

"We'll be waiting for you here this coming Friday."

At her house?

Ah... Mr. Kotori was a real lifesaver.

I used to think that fashion equaled self-indulgence, but somehow I like it.

I mean, don't I look stylish?

- Take it, take it, take it. - Oh, okay.

Don't do that. You can't make your debut like that. More.

Good. Yeah.

Satoshi Kotori

I understand.

I will see you Friday night at 6:00 p.m.

Looking forward to it.

Kotori

"I understand. I will see you Friday night at 6:00 p.m.

"Looking forward to it. Kotori."

Mr. Kotori, are you sure you did not send it incorrectly?

Incorrectly?

Why is it there? It should have been sent to...

Hi, hello!

- Do you think Mr. Kotori has a date? - I didn't know he had someone like that.

Kotorin, get it...

- What? Why are you all silent? - Shhh. Just drink the water.

A while ago, I sent the wrong message to all of you.

- I'm sorry. - Don't worry about it.

We'll pretend we didn't see it.

I'll be careful from now on.

Oh, Ms. Narukawa, next Wednesday,

would it be okay if I go home early again?

Yes, we have a flextime system, so feel free to do so.

Thank you very much.

Does Mr. Kotori have a date not only Fridays but also Wednesdays?

Come to think of it, he sometimes comes home early.

Jiro-chan, you shouldn't get involved in people's private matters.

I'm sorry.

Kotorin, good luck.

- Mr. Kotori, that feeling of dati— - Shh. Shut up.

By the way, Ko, are you free on Friday night?
