The first 200 lines.
- I'm sorry! - Sorry!
I did something terrible,
without even considering your feelings.
I've come to understand
your true intentions, Izumi-san.
Plus...
I think...
I...
It's Anna-chan!
The doctors said you have anemia from overworking yourself.
Anna, you are working hard.
I'm impressed with how far you've gotten, all on your own.
Depend on me once in a while.
I'll do whatever
I can do for you.
I'm sorry.
You should sleep for the night.
Take it easy, and rest up.
Don't push yourself anymore, okay?
I took Anna home. I think she'll be alright.
I'm glad. I appreciate you taking her home.
Thank you.
Yes, come in.
Pardon me.
Good morning.
Morning.
Was Anna-chan alright?
Yes. It seems her condition was stable.
I see.
So...
Izumi-san, I...
I've been thinking.
I'd appreciate it...
if you let me stay with you a bit longer.
I can rent a place
when I get my next pay.
So until then...
Please let me live with you.
I know it's a selfish request...
Sure.
So that's... one more week, right?
Yes.
I'll be in your care.
Woah, the new character's design looks really slick!
- Really? He's the childhood friend of the three brothers. - Yeah.
- Sounds like a good balance. - Right?
I think he's a winner.
Mei-san, yours is looking nice, too!
Thanks! I'm trying to create a character we've never tackled before.
That's exciting!
My imagination's running wild.
It feels like I could write a story about him already!
Right?
Huh?
Is Anna-chan absent today?
Yes. She was feeling a bit unwell.
However, I think she'll be fine after resting.
I've told Izumi-san as well.
I see, understood.
Izumi-chan, did things go well yesterday?
Oh yes, thank you.
Wataru-kun and I came to a mutual understanding.
I'm glad to hear it.
So, for the character design contest,
we should finalize a presentation date.
I'll contact Lantern, and double-check their schedule as well.
- Izumi-chan, you're so easy to read. - What?
I'm glad you've perked up.
Contact me once the schedule is set. See you.
Thanks for having me.
What did you buy?
Vegetables and meat.
I didn't want to be a bother, so I thought I'd cook for myself.
Well, I use to make pork miso soup all the time.
I currently run out of miso, though.
You're kidding...
Pot-au-feu! Let's have Pot-au-feu!
- Here, add this as well. - Okay.
- Like this? - You can add a bit more.
A little more...
I think... I...
You know...
Yes?
How's your character design coming along?
I haven't solidified an idea yet.
What do you mean? The presentation's coming up!
I'm thinking about it, really.
Don't add on any additional pressure.
- What are you adding? - I said, pressure.
No, no! That's too much balsamic vinegar!
Why not? I like this...
Bal... Bal...
- Bals! - Don't bluff.
- Fine. Try some then. - What?
You'll understand once you try some, so eat up.
- No. - What do you mean, "no"?
- It seems a bit scary. - It's not scary.
- Come on, try it. - No, I'm fine.
Alright, open wide.
At the time, I wished for this moment to last forever.
I'm terribly sorry to have caused you worry.
Are you alright?
Yes. I'm all better now.
I'm glad. However, don't strain yourself too much.
Yes, ma'am. Wataru-kun told me the very same.
Though that wasn't my intention at all...
He was worried about you, Anna-chan.
I know.
You know how Wataru-kun is continuously improving himself?
So I thought, I should also work even harder.
I hear you.
I only have a short time period remaining, but
I'll be in your care.
Your internship is ending soon, isn't it?
I plan to apply to Pegasus Inc. for a job.
We'll be awaiting you with high regards.
Yes, ma'am. If you'll excuse me.
Alright.
What's up? Are you stuck on something?
Yes.
I've come up with the backstory,
but I can't seem to describe it in the character design.
You have the basics skill of drawing,
so the question is how to express it.
- Keep at it. - Yes, sir.
I'm back.
Welcome back.
No worries, you can work here.
There's more space, right?
Yeah, thank you.
Do you have a second?
Which one do you like better?
I like both, however...
If I had to choose, it'd be him.
I feel like he's well balanced against the three brothers.
This one... I see.
I'm starting to think this one's better, too.
Well, it's best you follow your gut, Wataru-kun.
I get that, but...
I started to feel a bit anxious.
If you have no confidence, you'll flunk the presentation.
But...
Mari-san and Mei-san are both incredibly talented...
Don't worry about others.
Just draw. That's all.
Good luck.
I'm sorry, Wataru.
What's this?
"Rip-off"?
What's this?!
"Rip-off"?
Something wrong?
Someone has posted an article on a blog.
It says that, "'Love My Pegasus' is a rip-off",
and that, "Izumi Hidaka is a plagiarizer".
That's a full of crap.
Not true!
This person says they came up with the idea first,
and that they posted it online.
It says that they're,
"creating an otome game about falling in love with a prince that falls from the sky."
The original post is from 5 years ago...
Does that mean they came up with the idea around the same time as you guys?
No.
This idea was outlined by myself and Izumi-chan,
and was brought to fruition alongside everyone here.
We're not copying someone. That's impossible.
- What should we do, it's spreading rapidly... - Izumi-san!
- What should we do? - Let's retaliate.
- If we show them the dates on our documents... - No.
We don't have to do anything.
We are not in the wrong.
That truth speak for itself.
But, having these bogus rumors spread around-
Leave it to me. I'll think of how to deal with it.
Everyone, focus on your work.
The day of the contest is coming up.
- Yes, ma'am. - Alright!
Everyone, let's get back to work.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
"A rip-off? They're the worst!"
"They've lost my trust."
"A one-hit-wonder with a rip-off?"
"Well duh, that makes sense."
"Don't make anymore games."
- Yes, come in. - Pardon me.
This is from Mei-san.
Thank you.
Good timing.
Here you go.
Wataru-kun, it'll be your first presentation with people from outside the company, correct?
I compiled various ways the conversation could be structured, as well as tips when presenting.
You should read it.
Yes, ma'am. Thank you very much.
Izumi-san...
As expected, you're amazing.
How so?
You aren't bothered by those negative comments.
Well... Getting bothered by those little things would tire me out.
But...
No comments yet. Be the first to leave one.
