Smoking Behind the Supermarket with You (スーパーの裏でヤニ吸うふたり)

You look like a fossil.

Huh?

With your newspaper and reading glasses.

Is that gramps territory?

In this day and age, you can get newspapers on your phone.

Switch to a smartphone already.

Wife

Omw home

Okay!

Good work today

Today

Today's lunch looks amazing

See?

A smartphone, huh?

You have to use OINE. It's messed up that you can't.

Plus, you can check the papers and the latest news.

But my phone still works fine.

Huh?

So good.

Wait, what?

That's weird. The screen won't turn on.

What?

I need to get this repaired.

Don't be silly. Nobody these days can repair that ancient artifact.

Just give up and go buy a smartphone.

So yum!

Cig 4 Learning Behind the Supermarket with You

So I went and got a smartphone, but this is all new to me.

Wait, you can read papers on this.

How do I do it?

Get the app now!

Guess I'll give it a try.

Novice Users Targeted Personal Info Stolen from Smartphones

Smartphone Over

Virus = Very Infected

Nope, I don't have the courage.

Huh?

Wait, what?

What is this screen?

How do I get back to the previous screen?

Teach you how to use a smartphone?

I didn't even know you were still on a flip phone.

Oh, yeah.

That's so you.

So me?

Please, Tayama-sensei!

Sure, I'll teach you.

Really? Thanks!

So, what are you having trouble with?

Well...

Embarrassing as it is to admit, I don't even know the basic controls.

Tayama-san?

Basic controls, right.

Okay, I'll teach you the stuff that'll come in handy for you.

Please do.

Let's start with the very basics.

I'm sure even you know how to get back to the home screen, so let's skip that.

Actually, I'd appreciate it if you could teach me that, too.

Smartphones have swipe inputs.

Touch the button onscreen and then fwip to the character you want to input.

Fwip? Okay.

Let's do "ko."

Fwip...

Ka

Wait, no!

That's not what I wanted to do!

Wanna try a different input method?

Yes, please.

Oh, right. I'd like to try reading the newspaper on my phone.

Yeah, you can.

Really?

First, you need to open the app store to install the newspaper's app.

You can probably find it on the home screen.

But you'll need to create an account to use it.

And once you do, you log in,

and then you install the newspaper's app.

You'll need to create an account for that, too.

Manual

Never mind. I'll install it for you.

Sorry, and thank you.

EIHO

You're the best, Tayama-san. I can probably use this like my old phone now.

You'll just have to get used to it as you go.

And sorry, but could I ask you for one more thing?

Mm?

Would it to be possible to increase the font size?

Wha...

Huh?

How'd you know that's a thing when you're clueless about smartphones?

I mean, I could do that on my flip phone, too.

I-Is there a problem?

Well...

Maybe it's a huge pain to change that setting?

I don't mind doing that for you...

But you'd better not stop wearing those.

Got it.

Gimme. I'll change the setting.

Oh, yeah, Sasaki-san. To celebrate your smartphone debut,

how's about I give you Yamada-san's number?

No, no! No, thank you!

Don't do it, Tayama-san.

That's an invasion of privacy. Also...

It's Yamada-san, of all people!

Too late.

I already added it.

How could you...

Tayama-san?

Anyway, I was just kidding.

D'oh!

Okay, all done.

Tayama-san!

Here. Much easier to read now.

Oh, thanks.

Wait, no!

Gosh, how scary.

24-Hour

Supermarket S

Hey there, Yamada-chan.

What's up?

Okay, what have we got today?

He had no idea I took a shot.

All right. Time to put another shift in.

Genki Trading

Check this out, Sasaki.

Apparently, the brand of cigarettes someone smokes says a lot about them.

What's this about?

It's the smoke brand personality test.

This stuff really gets the young'uns going during drinking parties.

What does it say about me?

"Straightforward and devoted, will never cheat," it says!

It also says, "Oblivious and socially inept."

Hey! You didn't have to read that part!

Read the room!

Are you listening to me or not? Which is it?

Why are you smiling now?

A popular topic among the youth, huh?

Oh, yeah, that stuff.

You knew about it?

Just that it exists.

But those things usually...

A coworker told me about it,

and I thought it sounded fun.

Intentions

A'ight, let's check it out.

What's it say about you, Sasaki-san?
