The first 200 lines.
Some have great figures. Others have beautiful faces.
They're already at so much more of an advantage.
It's frustrating to see people who had to make no effort.
She has beautiful eyes and a beautiful nose, but an ugly mouth shape.
She would stand out if she did her makeup better and fixed her nose.
But I won't help them.
I don't want there to be any more pretty girls.
I mean, how much do you think I spent to have this face?
Hey, Aya! I'm here.
Kosei.
He's good-looking with a good personality.
He makes pretty good money and we're fairly compatible sexually.
He'd make a perfect husband.
But I've kept too many secrets from him.
My age, my job, and this face…
Are you able to take a day off from the call center?
I can't wait to introduce you to my parents.
I'll check the next time I'm in the office.
Great.
I'm turning 28 next month, and you're already 29.
We should get married before we reach 30.
Sure.
You're staying the night after the movie, right?
Hey, you didn't tell me that's what you were planning.
I didn't bring my usual makeup or supplements.
How about you come over instead?
You worry too much, Aya.
We'll all just end up covered in spots and wrinkles one day.
Oh, no… I'm starting to feel anxious.
When was the last time I got Botox on the corner of my eyes again?
I need to get them done again.
EPISODE 4
Yuki?
Yes!
Let's have fun.
Of course.
Girls in my office call me a middle-aged man.
-What? -I'm still in my early 40s, so it hurts.
You look younger, Hiyama.
Oh, okay, how about this one?
It's great!
Touch it.
It's so fluffy!
Am I dressing too young?
Look! Everything looks good on this slim body of mine.
Wow! It looks great!
Oh, then I'll get it.
Great, I'll be waiting.
Wow, it's so nice to have a young girl pick out my clothes.
Actually, I have a question for you.
What is it?
Well, you know…
I usually rent someone else.
Her name is Ayana. Do you know her?
I'm Ayana.
You're as beautiful as the pictures in the ads online.
Oh, she seems very nice.
This is a secret, but she and I are in a relationship.
Actually, it's her who asked me out.
Oh, so that's how she does things.
I know it's her job, but I don't like it…
when she goes on dates with other guys.
I bet.
So I'm having a date with you to get back at her.
Hopefully, she'll understand now…
how I've been feeling.
Sure.
They all got swollen after the operation.
But I can trade pain, time, money, and fear in exchange for joy.
I'm hooked.
NEW MESSAGE
Ayana, like my new outfit?
Gross!
Hurry! What were you doing?
Sorry, I was playing a game in the bathroom.
Let's start.
-It's not another man, is it? -Stop that!
-Are you cheating on me? -Of course, not! I'd never do that.
My name is Tsubasa Komori. Please help me choose cosmetics.
I'll be wearing a blue and yellow shirt.
Are you Tsubasa?
Oh…
Hi, I'm Yuki.
I… wanted to try putting on makeup.
Could you help me choose some?
Sure.
Thank you.
Same here.
I've only done some research about makeup online.
I'm a beginner who's never bought any cosmetics.
So I wanted to buy some today.
But I can't afford anything too expensive.
How about we start with some lipstick?
Lip tint doesn't wear or fade.
Lip gloss looks natural and might be easier to use, though.
-Lip tint? -Yes.
Lip gloss?
There are too many kinds.
Okay then, what color do you like, Tsubasa?
Let's pick a color that suits you.
A color that suits me? Oh!
I like vivid pink, like this.
I see. Oh, they have a sample…
so give it a try.
You may prefer a lighter color…
I love it! This is it. I'll get this color.
Excuse me, I'll take this!
Thank you so much for today.
I really enjoyed our time together.
It's been a while since I've had such a great time.
When I was in high school…
I told my teacher that I liked cute things…
and that I wanted to wear makeup like the girls.
I see.
They then said, "Don't worry, you're not weird."
"There are more and more kids like you these days."
I wasn't hoping that they'd treat me as a special case.
I just wanted to be accepted as who I am.
Yeah…
You just wanted someone to listen to you…
and accept you for who you are.
It's not like I want to be a girl…
or that I like boys.
But whenever I tell people how I like cute things…
I end up getting categorized.
I see…
And so…
I was so happy that you treated me so normally.
You helped me to move forward.
Can we do this again someday?
Of course.
Thank you!
You bought a lot today.
I did.
-Mascara and… -Yes, the mascara and…
Ayana Date Report…
-She's cute, but not sincere. -She has lots of wrinkles. Can't stand it.
She's constantly on her phone and doesn't listen to me.
She spends too much time in the bathroom.
No one would even spend time with you if you weren't paying.
Huh? Wait, that can't be him.
You've got to be kidding me. Wait, please no…
Oh, give me a break!
Please, don't come this way! No, don't come!
Ayana, thanks for waiting.
No way!
How did you know I love bicycles?
It's been my lifelong dream to ride this with my girlfriend.
Lifelong?
How romantic. I've always dreamed of that too.
You're actually nice.
I was worried since you don't have…
the best reviews.
Don't read those!
Thank you for saying that.
Sure. Okay, get on!
Okay!
-Wow, there's another seat? -Behind me.
I'm getting on now.
-Are you okay? -I'm all set.
-Here we go. -Okay.
-All right… -Oh, wait!
-Are you sure? -Oh, no…
Ready? Three, two, one…
Ouch!
I'm sorry I ruined our date.
-Ayana, I'll rent you again. -Here we go.
Let's go on another date, okay?
-A date? It's more like caretaking. -It's a promise!
Can you return the bike for me?
I'll pay you back later.
NEW MESSAGE
Can we still visit Maeda this weekend?
His wife is excited to see you too.
-Maeda is such a great guy. -Right…
His wife Haruka is also really nice. You'll like her.
-Oh, Kosei! Welcome! -Hey!
Aya, come on in.
-Thank you. -Come on in.
Thanks.
-It's been so long! -It really has!
Wow, your house is amazing!
Wow, Kosei, you did great.
You've found such a pretty girl.
How did you two meet?
Oh… well, actually…
I called out to her on the streets…
because she was so pretty.
Love at first sight?
Kind of.
Anyway, never mind us. How's your newlywed life?
Being married is wonderful.
No matter how stressed I am at work…
I always have Haruka.
Come now…
Wow, Maeda!
You two are my ideal couple.
Oh, stop that. It's embarrassing.
Here you go!
This is amazing!
