Hajimete No Aku 37

Gotta love that Jiro made 2.0's boobs small and frame fitting, than Kubo sized and obnoxious. *Nods sagely*

(Top Black box- The evil genius and his inventions comedy!!)

HAJIMETE NO AKU

(Side text- The Fans stir!!! Volumes 1 and 2 are out in stores!!)

(Other side text- I'm filled with gratitude to be of service for my creator, Jiro-sama.)

Chapter 37: MOTOR EMOTION.

FUJIKI SHUN.

002

{Although she was created to give Kyouko some much needed support, Version 2.0 seems to favor Jiro...)

(Sfx- Zaaaaaaaaa Ssssshhhhh)

2.0: Ahh....

It doesn't seem that this rain will stop...

{It's a pleasure to meet you all. I am a housekeeping Robot created by Jiro-sama. My name is Kyouko 2.0.}

{I was tasked to go shopping for groceries, but then I was caught by this downpour.}

003

2.0: This is quite the problem, I don't have a drainage unit installed yet.

But I'm supposed to be making Jiro-sama's favorite beef and potato stew...

(TN- And this is the first of many cute expressions 2.0 has this week.)

2.0: I mustn't keep Jiro-sama waiting!

Even if it costs me my life...

(Sfx- Batsu swisssh)

2.0: I will advance through this rain!!!

(Handwritten- If I should die, pleas don't throw me away!)

(Sfx- Baaaa fwissh)

Jiro: I don't want to eat stew that's wet.

(Sfx- Zaaaaaaaa sssssssh)

004

Jiro: You really DO favor me too much....

There's nothing wrong with waiting for me to come and pick you up.

2.0: My deepest apologies...

But you are my master.

So it is only natural that I'd favor you....

(Sfx- Pi flick)

2.0: Ah.

That hurt Jiro-sama!

Jiro: You're too hard headed.

005

Jiro: It's true that you're my underling, but I still consider you family.

I'm glad that you treasure me among all else....

(Sfx- Pon pat)

Jiro: But you should treasure yourself as well.

This is what I truly desire of you.

(Sfx- Kyuuuiiin kleeench)

Jiro: What's wrong?

(Sfx- Wata wffff)

2.0: N—Nothing!

(Sfx- Kyuii kyuii kyuiii ree ree ree)

{What is this...? Why is my motor ringing out like this...?}

006


(Book- Easy to understand Human anatomy. Learn the Human mechanism. Really get to know the means and roots of the body.)

2.0: Hmmmm....

{I thought as much, there's nothing I can learn about myself by reading Human anatomy books...}

{I suppose that AI isn't the same after all, But at least i'd like to know why my motor was acting that way...}

(Sfx- Puku puku poke poke)

2.0: Am I out of order?!

(Sfx- Nyuuunnn Nyooooo!)

2.0: But I was only created a week ago!!

I suppose it cannot be helped, I'll have to ask Jiro-sama to have a look at me....

If not, I may never get to the bottom of this....

007

Jiro: Oh! There you are 2.0.

How about giving Kyouko a hand with the cleaning...?

(Sfx- Kyuuunnn winnnnnd)

2.0: Huh?

U---Understood!! I'll get to it right away!!

(Sfx- Garaaaa clattter)

2.0: The moment I see Jiro-sama, my motor kicks into high gear!!

Could the cause be him after all?!

(Sfx- Gyuuun Gyuuun Gyuuun wiiiind wiiind wiiind)

008

2.0: T—That can't be!!

To become unable to serve my master, just because I can't look at him is unforgivable!


(Sfx- Suuu)

{If that's the case, I'll just seal these eyes!}

(On wrap- Heart's eye.)

(TN- I think this is a mild Kenshin reference. The kanji reads 'heart's eye' which was the name of a technique in the series used by a character named Usui.)

(Sfx- Gan bump)

(Sfx- Gan bump)

(Sfx- Doooon thuud)

2.0: This is no good...I can't seem to use the heart's eye properly~

(Sfx- Posu doff)

Jiro: What are you doing 2.0? Playing a game?

2.0: Kyaaah!!

(Sfx- Don THWOK)

Jiro: Gah?!

2.0: Why do I become so strange when Jiro-sama is close to me?!

(Sfx- Fushuuuuu ssssssssss)

009

2.0: If that's the case, I will just have to keep from getting close to him~~

Jiro-sama, your tea.

Jiro: Oh, thanks 2---

What's this?

2.0: Don't worry about it please!

This should be fine! Everything is going well...

(Sfx- Buruuuuu shivvver)

Jiro: Um, are you okay?

2.0: Whaaaa?!

(Sfx- Baaa fwasss)

Jiro: NGAHHH?!

010

{It's all no good....}

{What should I do now...? Jiro-sama won't have a use for me at this rate...}

(Handwritten- Let's watch a drama!!)

{Now Jiro-sama is upstairs....}

(Handwritten- They're showing 'My neighbor Kaiser' on TV!!)

{But this means that I can't be with Jiro-sama!}

{I don't want to be away from him....}

Kyouko: What's up 2.0?

Eiko: You don't look so hot.

011

Kyouko: It'd be best to have Jiro look at you then right?

Eiko: Seems like it.

2.0: You're right.

I'll go to him now.

{Yes, I'll just have to have Jiro-sama look into the problem...}

{He'll be able to fix my motor's rotation problem for sure....}

2.0: But...

But....

012

{I wonder why....}


{This throbbing in my motor is a bad thing....}

(Sfx- Kyuuuuuun wrrrrrnnnn)

Jiro: Hm?

What's wrong 2.0?

(Sfx- Gachaaa clatter)

2.0: Jiro-sa...

Ma?

(TN- Is the arrow really necessary?)

013

Jiro: Ah! A warm bath is so refreshing!

Now, do you need something?

(Sfx- Bashuuuuu fwoooooooo)

Jiro: Ngoaahhhh!!

What's wrong with you 2.0?!

014

2.0: H—uh? I'm...

Jiro: Oh you're awake 2.0.

You shocked me for a minute there! Why'd you suddenly over heat like that?

2.0: I'm deeply sorry...I know I'm an annoyance...

Jiro: Come now. If there's a problem with you, tell me.

I did a proper check up.

I had thought something was strange with you....

So I had a look, and returned all of your settings back to normal.

But now you needn't worry about anything.


2.0: Ah...

015

2.0: So he returned everything to normal...

Now I can be of service...

To Jiro-sama...

(Sfx- Poro drip)

2.0: Jiro-sama!!

It was the throbbing in my motor that endeared me to you in the first place....!

It's important to me! Without it, my important thing is.....

Change me back!

That's my....

Jiro: Wh—Whoa!!

What's the matter 2.0?!

016

Jiro: Calm yourself 2.0!!

Don't you want me to replace this fuse that overheated?!

2.0: Huh?

Jiro: I'm still not too good at programing AI...

So I can't make any major changes to your personality.

{Oh....Then this means....}

Jiro: Now please release me.

It's a bit strange to be embraced by a robot.

(Sfx- Po pat)

(Sfx- Haa)

017

2.0: KYAHHHHHHH!!!

Jiro: NGAHHHH!?

(Sfx- DOOOON THOOOM)

2.0: It really is still spinning....

(Sfx- Para para crackle crackle)

(Sfx- Kyiiiiiinnn vreeeeen)

2.0: Thank you Jiro-sama!

I will treasure this throbbing sensation in my motor!

(Sfx- Dosaaa thwomp)

018

2.0: Have a good day at school!

(Sfx- Zaaa)

Eiko: Hey! You look a lot better now!

2.0: Nope!

Still no where near better!

Eiko: Hm?

2.0: Teehee.

I'm still not fine,

But it isn't so bad.

(Side text- You've got quite the personality 2.0!!)
