KAIJU GIRL CARAMELISE (乙女怪獣キャラメリゼ)

Hey, they're running the Prince of Kaiju again.

Wonder what he looks like...

All of Japan wants to know! Who is the Prince of Kaiju?

There's video out there without the blur!

He's super hot!

I wanna see!

Search "Minami Arata"!

Minami-kun, can I get a picture?

Minami-kun!

Great work, Arata!

You're the man of the hour!

Look at you, wearing a mask to school.

You like acting like a real celeb?

No, people are just going so crazy...

An unknown number?

Hello? Can I help you?

Is this the number for Minami Arata-san?

I'm from the Nihon TV talk show, Sum It Up!

TV?!

For real?!

Sorry, wrong number!

That's awesome, Arata!

You're gonna be on TV?

So cool!

Wow, Kuro-taso, that's some crazy stuff your boyfriend's going through.

Minami-kun's in a total mess... and it's all my fault!

I'm sorry, Minami-kun.

For what?

This isn't your fault, Akaishi-san.

But it is my fault...

Let me know if there's any way I can help.

When you're this exposed, people will say all kinds of things about you...

Some of them can be hurtful.

But tell me if you need any help.

I'm sure...

I'm a lot stronger than you'd think!

Like that kaiju!

Th-That one bombed, huh?

Thanks.

I'm really glad to hear that.

I really just love you, Akaishi-san!

My tail is...

Hey!

Close call.

Scoop: Harugon is really a girl?!

Exclusive: Harugon true identity is revealed

Suspect (Age 16)

If I showed my tail, the fallout would be so much worse than "Prince of Kaiju"!

Sorry, Akaishi-san.

It's cool.

Maybe we should keep our distance until the commotion dies down.

If you're with me, people might take your picture and write weird things about you.

I can handle it,

but I don't want you to have to go through that.

I'm sure they'll get bored of it after a week or so.

I don't want to make trouble for Minami-kun either.

Yeah... I guess.

Okay.

I'll look for a place where we can talk uninterrupted.

The bell just rang!

I'm home!

Hey, Kuro-tan!

Experts debate the story the whole internet is talking about!

That's been all over the TV all day!

You know you kaiju out when you get too excited, right?

You really have to be more careful.

And kissing in public?

I know you're at that age, but still...

Then let's talk about that!

Why was I born like this anyway?!

Kuro-tan is...

She's being mean to Mama, Jumbo King!

I'm not being mean, though.

Mayu here! You guys all look so cute today!

It's Mayu! She's so cute!

Welcome home, Big Bro!

How was the walk home?

It was fine.

Some TV people came to see me, too!

Just came out of nowhere. "Are you the little sister?"

I didn't even get my hair done right!

What did they ask?

Um, like, what kind of person you are,

what your relationship to Harugon is...

But I made sure to tell them you've got a really pretty girlfriend!

Moa!

Not like you'll be able to go on dates like this...

Hello? Moa-chan?

Hey, where are you?

Just inside the door.

My brother just got home.

I wanna see him!

Too bad!

I gotta take this, Big Bro. Be back in a sec.

Sure.

Hey, I see him behind you!

No looking!

You're mean, Moa-chan!

Maybe that could...

Don't have the energy for femininity right now.

I can't see Minami-kun anyway.

Minami-kun!

Are you okay, Akaishi-san?

Minami Arata

Want to do a video call?

Um... video call?

Then nobody could interrupt us

What?

How do I do that?

What do I do?!

Huh? It's free?!

Hey, can I borrow your tablet?

Mama's using it!

I won't need it for long!

I was looking at Mayu videos, but sure.

So, I hit this button...

Can you see me, Akaishi-san?

What happened?!

S-Sorry! Still getting ready!

I was just messing with it and it put me through...

Should I call back later?

Th-This is cool!

Sorry for the wait.

Glad you're here.

I haven't done much video chatting, but it's nice!

Minami-kun's right there...

We can see each other whenever we want!

But...

It also means he'll be staring right at me...

I wish I had cuter at-home clothes!

Huh? Where are you, Akaishi-san?

Can you get your face in-frame?

I-I wasn't able to get ready, so I look really bad.

You look cute in relaxed mode, too.

It's kinda what it'd be like if we lived together, you know?

Together!

Horns!

Can you see me now?!

Y-Yes, but can you back off a bit?

Y-Yes, but can you back off a bit?

Sorry, I somehow got zoomed in!

How did that happen?

Sorry. We can try again another time.

It's fine.

I like being closer to you.

But... I can't!

Um, excuse me!

Hang on, something to hold it up... there!

Um, Akaishi-san?

That angle should do.

It's perfect!

Th-That one's not gonna work for me.

He's pretty picky...

Kuro-tan? Are you done yet?

I'll bring it back in a sec!

Sorry.

It's okay. I'm glad we got to talk for a bit.

Sure.

Man, I'm hopeless.

I know I said we should keep our distance, but I still want to meet up.

I want to eat lunch together and talk to you.

I spent my whole walk home today thinking about you.

Oh... yeah?
