Text1: Swimsuits are great! Kanamemo! (2) The highly acclaimed series is now on sale! Is Kana going to compete in the pool with her friends?!
Text2: The beauties are all in one place!
Haruka: Please give me 5 tickets to this type of world~
Chief: I’d rather keep all of them. Why don't you return them to me?
Text3: Iwami Shouko
Title: It’s more fun using them for yourself
Chief: These are this month’s promotional vouchers.
Chief: Please use them wisely.
Haruka: The beer vouchers have all been handed out!
Chief: Hala! Why are you looking so gloomy?
Yume: Aah! They have the water world entrance tickets!
Kana: Wah… They even have these! Amazing!
Haruka: Have you been there before?
Kana: Nope! I only heard about it from a television advertisement. I really want to go there!
Text4: It’s expensive!
Kana: Ah...

Title: I can see through your petty motives.
Haruka: Eh? What about Chief’s ticket?
Chief: Are you kidding me?
Haruka: Aah! // That’s it!
Haruka: Hehehe… I see.
Haruka: Then what about these six tickets?
Chief: Why did they increase?
Haruka: Oh~ Don’t tell me Chief is THAT bold?
Sfx: Curl
Title: Since it’s dangerous, maybe we shouldn't bait them?
Sfx: Hee Hee
Haruka: You’re so cute! You should just come out and say that you wanted to come along~
Chief: …
Haruka: Would Chief look cute in her school swimsuit?
Haruka: What about a one-piece swimsuit?
Haruka: Aah~ Bikinis look great too! // So, even children wearing bikinis have a lot of impact...
Haruka: It'd be too easy for it to slip off, since she doesn't have any curves. // Yah…
Kana: About that… Haruka?
Sfx: Thud Thud Thud Thud

Title: The importance of planning
Haruka: They were taken away from me~!
Sfx: Depressed
Yuki: Of course this would happen. Isn’t it bad enough that you're using it without permission?
Haruka: But this is too much! // I said I would help give them out to the customers!
Sfx: Frustration
Yuki: Oops… I said something inappropriate.
Haruka: But you know, I am the ditzy type.
Haruka: And I forgot to give them out! They'll have to rush to use it before the expiration date.
Haruka: If that's true, wouldn't it be a waste? It looks like we're the only ones who can use it, right?
Text1: I’m not wrong, right!?
Yume: Ah. Maybe you're right!
Yuki: Yume-chan, don’t be fooled by her words!
Title: Is there anything to fear in this world?
Kana: It looks like there are other kinds of tickets!
Text2: These are gift vouchers!
Yume: It’s normal to have hand rinse packs, etc.
Yume: The idea is that not all customers will receive them. We want to give them out to the regular customers.
Text3: I don’t think that's quite true...
Haruka: Yeah, the truth is that the ones who whine the most end up getting the freebies.
Haruka: This is why I always say:
Haruka: Selfishness isn't a bad trait to have!
Hinata: You should stop talking for now.

Title: Can we?
Hinata: But this is what happens, // there are people from the area I deliver to who come here to ask for the monthly movie passes.
Hinata: And they would come in groups! Do they have an ulterior motive?
Kana: Of course not. Those people are probably hardcore movie fans.
Hinata: Hoho, such a coincidence?
Hinata: One ticket for the last seat costs as much as 4500 yen. Two tickets for a month would cost 9000 yen.
Hinata: By the way, our newspaper’s subscription costs as much as 3500 yen per month.
Kana: Huh? // Eh?
Title: Service Mistake
Hinata: Yuki, are there any customers like that over there?
Yuki: On my side...? // Yeah.
Yuki: The last person I visited...
Hinata: Don't you ever get any coupons?
Hinata: You know, like freebies for customers?
Yuki: I’m not your servant. // I will never look after you.
Yuki: The duty of ‘taking care of someone’ should never be forced.
Yuki: My response infuriated him. // Was there anything wrong with it?
Hinata: How… How should I reply to this?

Title: Going to the school’s pool later?
Haruka: Kana, when does your summer vacation start?
Kana: It starts next week!
Haruka: Then let's think of where to go.
Kana: Don't worry about it. I don't have anywhere I really want to visit.
Haruka: Eh? Isn’t that boring?
Kana: Every year, I've always stayed at home.
Kana: As a result, I was able to receive the full attendance award! Isn't that great?
Kana: When the teacher praised me... // I was so happy!
Everyone: Kana!
Title: Everyone, to the mall!
Yume: Come and help me buy something!
Kana: Where to?
Haruka: Hey… wait a minute.
Haruka: You can't be serious!
Salesgirl: Miss, even if you ask that…
Hinata: Is Haruka arguing with someone?
Haruka: Why aren’t any old-fashioned school swimsuits sold here?!
Hinata: Let’s pretend not to know her. We definitely don’t know her!
Kana: Eh… Haruka seems insistent on me wearing one...
Page 6
Title: You shouldn't do this even if we're both female!
Haruka: Hey, let’s try this on!
Kana: I’m not really here to buy it.
Haruka: All right, all right.
Kana: Ahh! Why are you in here, too!?
Haruka: It’s all right!
Kana: Wait a second… Haruka! // Not there!
Haruka: What?
Kana: Aah…
Haruka: It’s okay…
Hinata It's a good thing that Haruka's a female…
Yuki: Yeah…
Yume: Aah! Where’s the pretty girl?
Title: Relax… It’s completely normal!!
Kana: Sigh…
Text1: She escaped!
Yume: Sorry to keep you waiting…
Kana: Is everything done?
Yume: Yeah. We bought a lot.
Yume: Here is Kana’s swimsuit!
Kana: Huh?
Kana: Eh? This one?
Yuki: You don’t have to worry! It's different from what Haruka chose for you.
Kana: Oh, I'm so glad it's not that!
Page 7
Title: Token of appreciation
Kana: I can’t accept this…
Kana: There is no reason for you to do so much for me.
Yume: I want to go on a vacation with everyone!
Yume: So, this is just me being selfish...
Yume: I'm sorry if I'm imposing on you, but... // Can you accept my selfish request just this once?
Kana: Okay...
Kana: Thank you!
Title: You are naive
Yume: I’m back!
Chief: Everyone left me behind. How dare you!
Hinata: It's not like that!
Yume: We went to buy swimsuits, // so that we can go someplace fun together!
Chief: In that case, can everyone tell me their scheduled off days?
Yume: Huh, Wednesday and Saturday?
Hinata/ Haruka: Tuesday and Friday.
Yuki: Monday and Wednesday.
Kana: Sunday.
Chief: All right, everyone back to work!
Sfx: Clap Clap

Title: The unintentional crime of indecent exposure
Haruka: Aww… after we put in so much effort to buy them!
Kana: We have no choice!
Yume: Ah! At least, it looks like everyone has the same idea!
Yume: All right. I'm leaving to deliver the evening papers!
Sfx: Blushed
Kana: Eh? Wait a minute, everyone!
Sfx: Hmph
Sfx: Hey
Kana: Huh?
Kana: Chief, with this and that… Wouldn’t they be arrested?
Sfx: Point
Chief: So that's how it is, eh?
Sfx: Frustration
Title: The flowery round marking
Kana: Ah… I have to go prepare dinner.
Chief: Okay.
Sfx: Creak
Kana: Sigh…
Chief: …
Chief: This is too…
Sfx: Scribble Scribble
Text1: Newspaper agency holiday
Text2: The rest of the off days are approved as well.
Chief: I really can't leave those kids alone!
Text3: It's great that no-one was arrested. Chief is really a kind person.
