School Babysitters (学園ベビーシッターズ)

Morinomiya Academy School Buildings Guide Map

Let's see...

The chairwoman's office would be... that way, I guess?

It sure is a big school, though...

Are you tired?

Can you keep walking, Kotaro?

Which is it?

Upsy-daisy!

Don't worry, Kotaro.

The chairwoman here is willing to take in and care for total strangers like us.

She's sure to be a nice person.

Our parents were "free spirits." They hardly ever came home...

Then they were in a plane crash, so now they never will.

We had no relatives to take us in,

and before we could really process what happened...

Morinomiya Academy Saikawa Keigo

A pleasure to meet you.

My name is Saikawa.

I'm here on behalf of my employer.

The chairwoman of Morinomiya Academy,

who lost her son and his wife in the same crash,

offered to become our legal guardian.

Chairwoman's Office

This will be our first time meeting her.

I need to make a proper introduction and offer my condolences.

Come in.

Excuse us.

It took you long enough.

I've been waiting here for ages!

Shaggy...

S-Sorry!

We walked here from the station...

I'm... Um, my name is Kashima Ryuichi.

This is my little brother, Kotaro.

I am aware.

Such valiant names, with their allusions to dragons and tigers...

Um, I would like to express my—

You can stow the stuffy formalities.

I did not call you here to become my new sons,

nor out of a sense of sympathy.

You say you've been looking after that boy since his infancy?

Yes. Since our parents were out of the house most of the time...

Then you know how to change diapers and feed him?

Yes...

Excellent.

Saikawa.

Yes, Madame Chairwoman.

Lead the two of them to the school's daycare room.

As you wish.

Give-and-take is the law of the world!

Every man must work for his daily bread!

In exchange for looking after your needs,

I require you to spend all of your time, while not in class,

acting as this school's babysitter.

Baby... sitter?

Chairwoman's Office

A pleasure to see you again.

I am Saikawa, the chairwoman's secretary.

Please, come with me.

Y-Yes, sir.

Shaggy...

Hey!

I didn't even get to thank her... Does she not actually want us here?

Ryuichi-sama, Kotaro-sama.

I am unable to drive you there, so please climb aboard.

That was a joke.

Um, Saikawa-san...

Does the chairwoman have any grandchildren?

No. Her late son and daughter-in-law had no children.

Thus, the chairwoman no longer has any family.

Um, so...

What did she mean by "babysitter," exactly?

Morinomiya Daycare Room

This.

You have been entrusted with the task

of looking after the children of the school's employees.

We created this facility to assist the female teachers here,

but due to insufficient funding, it's been short-handed.

Thus, to gain the aid of the school's students,

the chairwoman's son and daughter-in-law attempted to form a babysitter club.

But...

Who'd want to join a club like that?

A club where you look after children?

No way.

Unfortunately, they failed to gather enough students,

and the club was never formed.

So the chairwoman called us here to start that club?

Yes.

I'm terribly sorry for the imposition.

Not at all!

As the first member of the babysitter club, I'll do everything I can!

Please tell the chairwoman that I'm grateful to her for inviting us here.

Um...

Forgive me.

The nobility of your statement has moved me to tears.

I must be going now.

Do you understand your situation sufficiently?

Yes, sir!

I wish you the best of luck.

C'mon, wake up, Kotaro!

Let's make a proper introduction this time.

Hello. May I come in?

Um...

We'd like to be your friends, starting today.

Where's your caregiver?

Ow, ow, ow!

It's him!

Taka, jeez!

What are you doing?

I was having such a nice dream...

Um...

I'm sorry.

I'm the one who had him wake you up.

We're supposed to start here today as—

Oh, I heard about you.

You're the new heads of the babysitter club, Ryunosuke-kun and Torakichi-kun, right?

It's Ryuichi and Kotaro.

Right, right. Those were the names.

I'm Usaida Yoshihito.

I'm a graduate of this school, and the only daycare staff member.

Nice to meet you.

I-It's a pleasure to meet you, too.

You're a real lifesaver, though.

I have to look after the baby, so I have a hard time looking after the kids, too.

It looked like you were just sleeping to me...

Usaida!

Yes? What is it?

Can we play with these guys?

Only if you introduce yourselves first.

- I'm Kamitani Taka! - I'm Kumazuka Kirin!

- My name's Takuma! - I-I'm Kazuma...

He won't understand you if you talk all at once.

Here, let's form the naming train.

Here comes the naming train, choo-choo!

Kamitani Taka-kun!

Here!

Kumatsuka Kirin-chan!

Here!

Mamizuka Takuma-kun!

Here!

Mamizuka Kazuma-kun!

Here...

Sawatari Midori-chan!

Good. All the children of the daycare room...

...are doing great!

Thank you.

My name is Kashima Ryuichi.

Nice to meet you.

Go on, Kotaro. Say hello.

Okay, you be the monster!

The monster, Minigon, has appeared!

Double Yellow! Pink! Let's beat up Minigon!

Yeah!

H-Hey, I'd love to play the monster!

Will you let me join in?

Roarrrr!

See?

What do you think?

Get him!

Ow, ow, ow! I give!

Ouch! Ouch!

They're bullying my brother

Kotaro, I-I'll be fine.

Go play over there for now. Okay?

Ururun Panda-chan

Don't you want to get your big brother back, Kotaro-kun?

You want me to read that book to you, then?

In this room, he won't notice unless you call for him.

Ryu-chan, Ryu-chan.

Sorry to interrupt the fun, but it's time for the end of my shift.

The old chairwoman is real stingy, so I don't get paid for overtime.

But now that you're here, well...

Anyway, the teachers should be coming to get them soon.

Y-Yes, sir.

Or do you think you can't handle it alone?

I-I'll be fine.

I've taken care of babies before, even.

Oh, really?

I really will go, then. You're sure?

Yes.

Really sure?

Definitely.

I see.

I would've stayed if you'd asked...
