Seven Ms. Prisoners (女囚セブン)

What's your image of a prison?

Do you think of a dark place without any windows that's

surrounded by tall fences? The inmates must

obey strict rules? Isn't that the image you have?

You're wrong! That's so old-fashioned.

We're trying to create a modern female prison.

Protecting their motherly instinct is our mission.

That's what we focus on.

To provide an open and bright environment, their prison suits

are pink, and the fences are a lot lower.

Let's build a country that is more female-friendly.

We must accomplish our mission.

As the Minister of Justice, I'm working on a new reform.

to reduce the number of female inmates and repeated convictions.

He's talking about us!

Mr. Naito, that was a terrific speech! Right, Ipponmatsu?

Please don't worry. Many female inmates are trying to

straighten themselves out.

Everyone, please trust and support them.

It's okay to lower the prison fences.

It's Japan! No one will try to escape from prison!

Exactly!

Ipponmatsu, what's going on?

It's a prison break! What should we do?

Stand up!

Dome! I'll do anything to get there!

Ouch!

Go back.

Accident!

- Pick her up! - Okay.

One, two, three.

Hold on!

We have to call an ambulance.

No need for an ambulance. Take her back. To the west.

We have to settle things peacefully here.

Right, Ipponmatsu?

Yes, exactly, sir.

Ipponmatsu, did anything happen today?

Not at all! Right?

Rumor has it an inmate escaped and was hit by a prison van.

That's not true, is it?

Not at all, sir. You must be talking about New Mexico.

Are you covering it up again?

Punishment!

We should punish inmate #356 instead of writing her up.

What the heck? No punishment. Were you listening?

Mr. Onda wants to settle this peacefully.

I guess I have to do something.

Let her rest for a little bit.

I see! Excellent idea!

Number 358, what's the matter? Walk!

Kotone Kamiwatari

Inmate #358, what is your offense?

Tell me what you did.

Murder.

You'll be living with other inmates in this dormitory.

Please don't talk about your personal life or crime.

I hear this newbie was a geisha girl, and she killed another geisha.

She blocked the beast's prison break.

I hate to think what'll happen.

Everybody's trying to mend their ways as quicly as possible.

If you get along with them and don't cause any trouble, you may be

released on parole before your five-year sentence is completed.

Please believe in yourself and try your best.

Work starts now!

About Hanazono Prison

Hello, everyone.

Let me explain the inmates' life in Hanazono Prison.

This is the daily schedule for our female inmates.

Wake-up time is 6:30, ind their bedtime is 21:00.

The last four hours are used for relaxing.

Their work is divided into manufacturing and managing.

We manufacture common items such as chopstick

envelopes, tote bags, trashcans, and hats.

Facility managing includes cleaning, laundry, and cooking.

Their work is necessary for their life here.

The inmate build their teamwork through work.

They become more cooperative.

These photos aren't censored right.

Look.

- Sorry. - It's terrible.

Stop saying that.

- It's really bad. - Do we have to censor those photos?

They're human, too!

Go, Hanazawa Prison!

That's the geisha girl who killed another geisha.

She probably worked at a hot springs or as a prostitute.

She blocked our boss' prison break.

Newbies don't get to wear gloves.

Are you stupid? No gloves for you.

Hey, was the magazine article true?

This geisha girl killed another geisha!

It's so funny! This newbie ignored me!

She's always like that. Don't worry about her.

Shut up, already. You're so annoying.

I have no idea what you just said.

I have no idea what you're saying, either.

What?

Stop that! Come at me!

Let's take it outside.

We are outside!

This frustrated woman's hysterical attitude is terrible!

Calm down, you two.

A frustrated woman?

You're talking about me, right?

No, not at all.

He used to say that to me all the time. He called me that.

Who are you talking about?

How? How do you know that?

Were you secretly listening to me?

You're insane.

Nobody cares about you, stupid.

Is she stupid?

I'm stupid. I'm the stupidest and unluckiest woman.

I'm not satisfied! How did I become like this?

What's taking so long? Transport the fertilizer!

Ume, we have to transport the fertilizer.

Well...

I don't think she can hear today.

It's always like this. I hate it.

Everybody's insane.

You have eyes like a dead fish.

It stinks.

It does.

Hurry up and transport it.

Make the newhie carry everything.

I'll do one for exercise.

Not here. There!

No! That way!

The pale-faced geisha turned back.

It's so funny!

Oh, no! This is unbelievable!

Are you okay?

It stinks really bad. You don't smell it?

What happened? It stinks.

Kamiwatari, hurry up and clean yourself up.

What did you guys do?

It's so cold!

This is part of my job.

Please stop, sir!

You're so creepy.

This is your seat.

Whoa! A roach!

Oh, no! That's gross!

I think it's good for your skin.

I wonder who did that.

Really.

Attention!

Sit straight.

Show appreciation. Thank you for the food.

Think you for the food.

No way. Seriously?

Is that an edible locust?

Inmate number 678!

Accident!

Jin, I can't do gardening. I got splinters.

I'll take you to the nurse's office.

Can you blow on it?

Please get back to work.

Go to the nurse's office!

I just got splinters.

Lick it!

Such an idiot. She talks too much.

She's a ventriloquist. Aren't you surprised?

I see.

You're such an idiot.

Okay, then.

The woman who got yelled at killed some old men for their

inheritance money. Her nickname is Ero.

The girl next to her, Zuka, was a bad politician's secretary.

The girl all the way in the back, Nurse, killed her patient.

Her whole body has been worked on.

The vulgar one had maternity neurosis and killed her husband.

Her nickname is Motoyan. She loves to be called "Bancho."

I feel sorry for Grandma Ume who killed her husband

because she was exhausted from caring for him.

The director doesn't punish us too much to keep his

record clean. Instead, I hear our punishment cell is hell.

It's called "disciplinary confinement," and you have to

sit on your feet all day there.

I thought it might be easier because you don't have to work.

People go crazy after not doing anything for several days.

You're broken mentally and physically.

The guard, Domeki, is a devil as her name suggests.

Watch out for her. Ask me anything if you have questions.

I'm pretty well-informed somehow.

I forgot.

My name is Natsu. It's embarrassing to say, but

I left a restaurant without paying.

I resisted a little and got arrested. Give me a break.

I need to get out of here quick and go home.

My family is waiting for me.
