Mahou no Rinobe (Renovation Like Magic / 魔法のリノベ)

- Please come in. - Thank you.

There are demons that dwell in houses.

Once you open the living room door, this is what you will find.

I want this to be hidden.

- Hidden...? - Yes.

My wife is the one who said she wanted an island kitchen.

I can't even invite people over with all this.

Ah, not that I'm blaming you,

you know, not everyone has the aptitude.

Yeah.

It's our job to exterminate those demons.

I'm in charge of cooking,

but in terms of cleaning, I'm a terrible housewife.

I'm embarrassed.

Please, go ahead.

If that's the case, I wonder

if I've found the real demon living here.

Well, to sum it up, that's how I feel.

I see.

The island kitchen has now turned into an island of dreams.

I heard that they bought it secondhand.

*L=Living Room, D=Dining Room, K=Kitchen

He wants to separate the LDK into LD and K.

Isn't it normally the other way around when renovating?

But that husband of hers seems to be a bit of a moral harrasment, isn't he?

Well, he's certainly trying to hide the kitchen together with his wife.

That's DV (Domestic Violence).

- Are you done? - Yes I'm done.

Hey, Gen... you should tell the husband,

if you don't like the mess, you can go upstairs to the second floor,

and eat convenience store bento. That's how the renovation will get finished, right?

- No, that's not how the work will get done. - I wonder.

In any case... I'll draw up the plans as ordered for now.

- I'm counting on you, Tatsu. - Yes.

Hey Gen-chan.

Isn't it time to get the contract now? Right?

- I'm counting on you. - Yes.

- I'm serious. - Yes.

That's a good reply.

I'm counting on you.

- Yes? Yes? - Yes! Yes!

- Good work. - Good work.

Good morning.

She's a useless housewife, she even said it by herself

Following Koume-san's method,

I'll show them that their dreams will exceed their budget.

Please don't check it while you're eating Omusubi (Rice ball).

You're up to something again, aren't you?

Shingyouji-kun, please moderate yourself, okay?

Yes.

There are demons in every house.

I'm home.

I'm sorry, Shinnosuke. I haven't been able to play with you lately.

It's okay. Mom's not here and you're busy, right?

Well, not that she's not around. To put it simply. she's away.

Did she go to get the legendary sword?

This house too.

Well, I guess it gives the impression that it's separated.

Thank you very much.

It wasn't supposed to be like this.

What?

The truth is...

My ideal kitchen...

Yuka-san's perfect castle, right?

Welcome back.

Ah, I'm sorry.

I went to a showroom of another company.

Eh?

Hello!

I'm Kubodera from Global Stella D Home.

Hello.

I'm Fukuyama from Marufuku Construction.

I'm Shingyouji Koume from Global Stella D Home.

Please have a seat.

I've got something good for you, ma'am.

The island kitchen is too messy, isn't it?

That's why, for this house,

we recommend replacing it with this peninsula kitchen.

I hear it's available now in the same series as the cupboards.

If you add a concealing wall to the peninsula, there will be a kitchen space all to yourself, ma'am.

It's now or never.

Let's complete Yuka's castle.

Thanks.

I'm sorry, though.

For such a useless housewife like me

- No. - I'm sorry.

May I make one more suggestion?

What?

Koume-san, we've already come to an agreement.

Please take a look at this.

This is...

"Organized Life"

It's not about what looks good or what's popular.

It's a renovation that is in line with the customer's sense of living.

We made up for the weak points of the current kitchen.

By adding a counter

the workspace will be much larger.

and also a concealer.

The garbage bin is opened with a one-touch pedal.

You can't see it from the living room.

So you can keep all your cooking seasonings outside.

Ahh! How convenient.

Huh?

Excuse me.

But you can see everything when you come in through the door.

You can change the position of the door.

We can put the entrance door directly on this wall.

Well, that would certainly improve the flow of traffic.

The biggest problem with this house is the position of the door.

If we can solve that,

there is no need to hide the entire kitchen.

That is because, your wife's ideal kitchen,

is not the perfect castle...

It's a place where husband and wife can work together.

Thank you.

You're not a bad housewife.

Please, imagine...

Your life from now on.

- Can you do it? - Wait.

- Wait, wait. - That's right.

- Like this. - Wait a minute.

I couldn't do it.

What I want is for

I want a kitchen where a working couple can stand together.

While cooking, we can talk about work and talk about our children.

Soichiro-kun.

I'll aim to get a new job.

Oh?

So please support me in the kitchen.

If you don't want to, go upstairs and eat convenience store bento.

What is this?

What is this!?

- Koume-san, what are you trying to do? - Sorry, sorry.

She called herself a useless housewife.

- It made me angry. - That was amazing.

Marufuku's been beaten.

With the contract stolen from me so blatantly right in front of my eyes...

I had a dream that night.

Ah!

A Demon has appeared

Attack‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎ ‎

Defend‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎‎ ‎

Use Item‎ ‎ ‎

Run away

Whoa! Wait, wait...

Aaah! Echigo-san!

It cut my leg! I can't see it!

Where is it? Where is it? Where are you? Where are you?

Calm down. I can't identify the enemy.

Whoa! Time-out! Time, time!

Here!

Ouch! Take that!

Whoa! Ahh!

Who are you?

Leave it to me.

Bellino!

Wow! Wow! She did it.

Yay! She defeated it!

So lucky!

Thank you very much.

That dream would later became a reality.

Can you gather round for a minute?

- I have an announcement. - Announcement?

You see, Marufuku Construction's Renovation department...

I've decided to renovate it.

Eh? I don't understand...

You don't understand what I'm saying, right?

- We're having someone new come in. - What!

- Wait a minute! - Yes, yes...

We can't afford it now, can we?

Yes, we can't. That's exactly why we're going to bring her in.

- I don't understand. - I'm a little bugged by it too.

No, you can't be bugged, can you?

What is it? What is it, Gen?

Hey, Gen, as my son,

your results are really bitter, huh?

You do useless things and I'm fed up with your manly odour.

No, no, no, no, wait...

Everyone here has manly odour, right?

So, by chance...

I've asked an outstanding female member to join us.

Eh? Woman?

She'll be working together with Gennosuke as a buddy.

Buddy?

Gennosuke's working with a woman.

Dad, isn't that terrible?

- Terrible? - It's terrible isn't it?

Have you decided yet?

Not just decided,

she's already here.

- Eh!! - Okay, come in!

From today, I look forward to working with you. I'm Shingyouji Koume.

Koume-chan, please take good care of Marufuku Construction.

Leave it to me.

Renovation. It's the magic of the present.

I've asked a consultant. This house...

is really old, right?

Is it? Yeah.

As expected, it's about time. You know...

I think it's time to think about renovating.
