"I'm not available right now." "Please leave a message after the beep." "Hello!" "Hey..." "I know you're there..." "Well..." "I want you to call me." "Morning is here again." "The same day as yesterday..." "Probably tomorrow, and the day after will be exactly the same." "Just going around in circles..." "Around and around." "Over and over and over..." "It happened on a day like any other." "I couldn't just leave the kitten there and ended up bringing it home." "That's how everything started." "Cat Girl Kiki" "Ears?" "W-W-W-W-Wait..." "W-W-What are you..." "I..." "A-Are you really that kitten?" "What do I do?" "This strange creature seemed to like me... and she brought warmth and comfort into my dull meaningless existence." "Man, this is hard..." "I guess if she's mine..." "Clarisse?" "That's not it..." "Then..." "Florence!" "So a Japanese name." "Well she is a Japanese cat." "I wouldn't want to be named Michael after all..." "Asuka?" "Shigure?" "Pochi!" "Huh..." "Pochi?" "Shiro?" "Roba?" "Banto?" "Tombo?" "Button?" "Wait, no..." "Lulu!" "Popo?" "Kiki?" "Huh?" "Kiki." "Kiki." "Huh..." "Kiki, eh?" "Well if it's fine with you, I don't care." "Ki..." "Clarisse!" "Guess not." "Kiki!" "Kiki." "You got me!" "Now you did it!" "Oww oww!" "Excuse me!" "I'm from downstairs!" "Oh crap..." "It seems kinda noisy in there." "Everything alright?" "Stay still, ok?" "Oh, I'm very sorry." "It's nothing." "Well that's good then." "It was so noisy I thought you were fighting up here." "Oh no no no." "I was... working out." "Oh." "Working out, huh?" "I'm sorry it was so loud." "I'll be more careful in the future." "Well then... thanks." "Have a nice day!" "Well, I don't mind, but we've been having a rash of crimes lately." "The other day the local store was hit." "So I thought maybe there was a burglar up here." "O-Oh, is that right?" "Well then, I'll be extra careful!" "Thanks!" "Bye!" "Bad Kiki!" "If someone saw you, how am I going to explain this?" "Takagi-kun... wake up." "Takagi-kun." "I'm not available right now." "Please leave a message after the beep." "Hello, Takagi-kun." "Are you listening?" "Shouldn't you come back to college before you fail?" "How long are you going to keep yourself locked up?" "All alone..." "Anyway... call me." "Huh?" "A dream?" "Kiki." "Kiki." "Kiki!" "Kiki!" "Kiki!" "Kiki!" "Kiki..." "You're here..." "I wonder if you're real..." "There you are." "Yeah." "You are real, Kiki." "I decided to teach Kiki to speak." "Kiki!" "Kiki." "Chi... chi..." "No, not chichi." "Kiki." "Kee... kee..." "Getting closer." "Kiki!" "Ki... ki." "Yeah, that's it!" "Okay now..." "Ta-ka-gi." "Ta... ta... mi..." "Not "mi." It's Takagi." "Kiki learned to understand simple words quickly." "But table manners on the other hand, took some work." "Come on." "Let's go." "It's "Bon Appetite."" "B-Bon..." "App..." "Wrong!" "Sorry sorry sorry!" "You're mad." "Here." "Now use this." "You scoop it and eat." "Kiki soon became my reason for living." "But the most important thing was still a mystery to me." "To start with... was Kiki a cat, or was she a person?" "To start with... was Kiki a cat, or was she a person?" "Good!" "It's okay!" "It's okay!" "To start with... was Kiki a cat, or was she a person?" "To start with... was Kiki a cat, or was she a person?" "You got it." "To start with... was Kiki a cat, or was she a person?" "come on" "How long would she stay like this?" "See?" "You can stand!" "I can stand..." "So high..." "Kiki, come here." "You can't go outside." "Can't?" "No, it's just that you're still..." "uh... that is..." "There's just a lot of dangerous things out there." "Besides, being out there is boring." "Let's stay here together." "This is tomorrow's forecast." "This is tomorrow's forecast." "Along the Sea of Japan shoreline," "Along the Sea of Japan shoreline, there is a strong chance of blizzards." "there is a strong chance of blizzards." "The Pacific Ocean side will be mostly sunny," "The Pacific Ocean side will be mostly sunny, by the Eastern sea and northeast, we can expect snow until the early morning." "we can expect snow..." "We expect this season's coldest temperature." "I'm home." "Along the Sea of Japan shoreline we can expect snow!" "What you talkin' about, Willis?" "Make sure you evenly slice that cabbage!" "The expression is "pearls before swine!"" "You are just so bad!" "When did you..." "But it needs some work..." "Stop." "Don't do that Kiki." "I said stop it!" "Stop your hips too!" "The troubled king made... made this decree..." "Kiki!" "Here." "A present." "For me?" "I'm so happy!" "Well... well it's nothing too big, but, well... you know..." "It's kinda nice, but kinda not." "And you may like it, you might not..." "But it's something like this." "I'm home." "Oh, welcome home, master." "Good morning, senpai!" "Very nice." "Wake up, Takagi-kun." "Wake up." "Come on... please wake up!" "Takagi-kun!" "The phone's ringing!" "The phone!" "I'm not available right now." "Please leave a message after the beep." "Hello?" "It's your mother." "You're always out." "Yoshirou, do you think you'll graduate college?" "Are you looking for a good job?" "I won't forgive you if you're going to become a bum." "Well as long as you're healthy." "But call us sometime!" "Many highly educated people do not have jobs." "Many highly educated people do not have jobs." "They are able to study, but when they are forced to see reality," "They are able to study, but when they are forced to see reality, they don't know what to do with themselves." "they don't know what to do with themselves." "They aren't able to set a new goal, and become a recluse." "They aren't able to set a new goal, and become a recluse." "Are there any characteristics that is shared by all of them?" "Are there?" "Most of them are very proper." "Also very poor communication skills." "Most of them are very proper." "Also very poor communication skills." "Aside from already established friends, they are..." "Aside from already established friends, they are..." "Hey, I was in the middle of practicing." "You don't have to practice that." "What kind of people are they?" "Well... a 'lazy' person who doesn't work or go to school." "Takagi-kun..." "like you?" "No, I'm not." "Besides, I'm a college student." "Then you're a recluse!" "Huh?" "I wish you'd stop using words you don't even understand yet..." "Huh?" "What's the matter?" "Are you becoming a recluse?" "Quit it." "I'm sorry..." "N-No..." "I just..." "I didn't..." "I didn't mean..." "What the hell am I doing?" "Stop!" "Stop it!" "Stop!" "Let go of me!" "Takagi-kun!" "Please stop!" "Sorry..." "Man, what the hell am I doing with my life?" "I am really worthless, aren't I?" "Takagi-kun, what do you want to do?" "Want to do?" "I can think of plenty of things I don't want to do..." "Like what?" "Like hurting people, cause problems for people." "Getting jealous of people, destroying nature..." "Torturing animals... becoming an adult..." "I see..." "Takagi-kun, you're a great person." "No, I'm not." "Besides..." "I'm always hoping that there'll be a huge crisis, and that the entire world would just plunge into panic..." "I'm full of contradiction." "Takagi-kun, you're honest." "No." "Takagi-kun, you're kind." "Thanks..." "Kiki... what do you want to be?" "I'm..." "I'm just a cat so I want to stay a cat!" "You don't look like just a cat." "Kiki... why do you stay with me?" "Because, I'm this house's cat." "And because I'm your cat!" "Kiki, you're kind of a recluse too." "That's right!" "All cats are lazy, and house cats are all recluses." "Humans sure have it tough." "I want to become a cat too." "Huh?" "I must have dozed off." "Good morning!" "How do you feel?" "I don't quite know... but kind of refreshed." "It's nice outside." "Yes!" "It's warm and very nice." "Kiki... want to go outside?" "Yes!" "Hey..." "What are they doing?" "Oh that... they're in love." "They're... in..." "love?" "Love is... sort of like... well..." "It's like a really important..." "thing..." "That's not a description at all, is it?" "Takagi-kun... are you in love with someone?" "Yeah..." "I was always..." "Huh?" "What?" "No, I, just now..." "I feel like I can remember..." "Takagi-kun..." "Takagi-kun!" "Sorry." "What's the matter?" "I just felt..." "like I wasn't myself there for a second." "W-Wha... what is it?" "Am I not good enough?" "Do we have love?" "Yeah... yeah we have love." "Love is kinda... warm." "Yeah." "Yeah it is." "N-No..." "I..." "I... but..." "What do you want to eat?" "Hmmm..." "Mackerel!" "Something else." "Sardines?" "Something besides cooked fish?" "Raw tuna!" "You have a one track mind..." "Sometimes A Woman..." "Oh..." "love!" "Love..." "Doll..." "Woman she then brought her finger dipped in her own honey and brushed it under Tokio's nose." "T-T-Tokio was struck with the scent of her ripe fruit." "Seiko was overcome with lust." "She brought her honey coated finger and brushed Tokio's lips." "Those lips probably had never tasted a real kiss." "From deep within her body, a passion burst forth." "Honey... honey... honey..." "Found it!" "So this is love honey..." "But that's the cheap kind, right?" "Oh right..." "Okay!" "W-W-W-Whaa?" "What are you?" "Don't worry." "Teacher will show you how!" "T-Teacher?" "What the hell?" "W-W-Wait a minute here!" "Tokio-kun, you're very healthy!" "T-Tokio?" "My name is Yoshirou, but..." "Wait, where have I heard that..." "Oh well... who cares." "Teacher will show you how!" "Show you how!" "Tokio-kun, you're very healthy!" "Actually, I saw Takagi yesterday." "Huh?" "Where?" "Well... it was right along the river." "How was he doing?" "Well he was smiling and laughing and talking to himself." "It was really creepy." "What was he talking about?" "Something about mackerels and sardines." "He was talking kinda incoherent." "Mackerels?" "I see." "So that's how it is." "There's no way!" "If he had a new girlfriend, he'd come back to college!" "Besides, how does a recluse even meet a girl?" "But there were bras drying up there!" "Maybe he's... under house arrest?" "No way!" "Yeah, definitely not." "I'll check it out." "How?" "I still have Takagi-kun's house key." "Looks like he's not home." "Hey, doesn't it smell kinda weird?" "Huh?" "Wait..." "Don't do it!" "What the hell is this?" "It's makes absolutely no sense!" "Wow, what's this?" "Does Takagi have this kind of fetish?" "No... he didn't..." "I'm home!" "Oh crap!" "Hey, Kiki!" "Huh?" "Kiki!" "Kiki?" "Sorry we uh... it's not what you..." "we just... uh..." "Where's Kiki?" "Kiki?" "Didn't you see the girl with the cat ears?" "Cat ears?" "Yeah she has cat ears right around here." "I thought she'd be around here." "Well... uh..." "I don't think we saw her..." "She should be around." "Kiki!" "Hey, Kiki..." "Hey, you!" "Where'd you put Kiki?" " Where is she!" "?" " I don't..." "I didn't..." "We don't know!" "Huh?" "Cat ears?" "What's that?" "Kiki?" "There's no such person!" "What are you, an idiot?" "What are you saying?" "I mean..." "who are you?" "Who..." "Did you forget?" "Kiki!" "Kiki!" "Kiki?" "Where'd you go?" "I told you there is no Kiki!" "Here, I have proof." "This is Kiki." "Isn't she cute?" "Can you see her?" "N-No..." "I don't see her." "You gotta be kidding me." "You're here to mess with me..." "Damn it..." "Kiki!" "Kiki!" "Kiki!" "Kiki!" "Kiki..." "Kiki!" "Kiki..." "Where the hell did she go..." "Kiki!" "It's you again..." "T-That feels good..." "Yuka..." "Takagi-kun..." "Not the feet!" "It tickles!" "Stop stop stop stop stop!" "How come?" "Cause it tickles!" "You already said that." "There's no more bubbles anyway." "I did this for you, you know." "That feels good..." "That does tickle!" "Make me feel good." "By tickling you?" "No, you know how!" "Make me feel real good..." "Like that..." "Not yet, not yet..." "Look at all the bubbles!" "Wait, what..." "I just..." "What the hell..." "Who... who... who the hell am I?" "What the hell is wrong with me?" "Takagi-kun." "Look at me." "No!" "Come back." "Get away!" "I don't know who the hell you are!" "Don't go putting on Kiki's clothes like that!" "Hey..." "Hey, what the hell are you doing?" "Takagi-kun, remember." "Remember what's real..." "Kiki..." "Kiki..." "Kiki..." "Kiki..." "Kiki?" "Kiki!" "Huh?" "I see..." "Kiki, you're an angel." "I have been called that." "Where are we?" "The exit." "The exit?" "From where?" "From the fantasy that your subconscious has been creating." "What's beyond the exit?" "The world." "I see." "The world beyond the exit..." "Is it heaven?" "Or maybe hell?" "I did kill myself after all..." "No, you are still alive." "Is that... me?" "Yes." "If you go now, you will just be able to return." "Return... to there..." "What will happen to you, Kiki?" "I do not exist in that world." "The memories and the experiences you had here will disappear." "Disappear?" "Even memories of you, Kiki?" "You will forget." "Completely." "No..." "I don't want that!" "No..." "I don't want to return to that world ever again." "If you stay with me, Kiki, I don't need anything else." "Let's live together in this world just like we have been..." "But, this world isn't the real world." "What's the real world?" "I don't understand." "Because I'm here now, and so are you." "Besides, I don't care about real." "I don't care if it's a dream or a delusion." "I just want to live with you in this world forever, Kiki." "You have people who love you who are waiting for your return." "That's a lie!" "Nobody's waiting for me back there." "Everyone betrays you." "It's a boring and worthless world!" "Takagi-kun!" "Takagi-kun... wake up..." "It's almost time." "Hey... do you think there's an eternity?" "Well... even if you disappear from my memory," "if I don't disappear from your memory then..." "Takagi-kun..." "Takagi-kun?" "I'm sorry..." "I'm sorry..." "I'm sorry..." "Thank you." "How long have I been sleeping?" "About two weeks." "The doctor said you might never regain consciousness." "Oh, is it okay with work?" "Yeah, I'm heading back soon." "So you're finally awake." "Yoshirou... don't ever do something so stupid again." "Okay, I'll be back later." "Hey... huh?" "Well, there's something I've wanted to say for a while..." "That thing with Nojima-kun..." "It was just that one time, okay?" "Why are you laughing?" "No, I thought you were breaking up with me." "Of course not!" "I see." "Hey, is it... is it okay for me to be here?" "I'd be happy if you did." "You know... while I was asleep I think I was having a great dream." "What kind of dream?" "Well, I just can't remember." "Well then let's have a beef bowl." "Why?" "Let's go have something else." "What is it?" "It's a kitten!" "It's so cute." "What's the matter?" "I'm going to adopt this kitten!" "What?" "Aren't pets not allowed at your place?" "It doesn't matter." "All life should be treasured." "Is that funny?" "No, it's not funny..." "It's true though..." "life really should be treasured." "What are you going to name it?" "Name?" "Yeah." "Let's give it a fun name!" "Hmmm..." "Nyantaro!" "Wait wait..." "Neko-kichi is good too." "I ended up naming the kitten..." "Kiki."
