"What's wrong with spending money on things I like!" "I don't need spoon or chopsticks and I don't have pointcard either" "Ok..." "Total is 1678 yen, please." "You're short 132 yen" "I have money!" "I have no money!" "Hey hey, was what you just told me true?" "Oh sure it is." "Kuwano-san likes to pretend he's conducting while listening to classical music and says.. "everybody does it too"" "no way!" "So whenever I hear music through the wall, he is conducting?" "How does he do it?" "Probably with a smirk on his face... and just with one hand in a half-assed manner like this?" "Excuse me, we're closing soon." "Would you mind paying the bill?" "Shall we go?" "We're always talking about Mr. Kuwano..." "Oh this is the check?" "Oh no no no!" "A man should pay for it" "Hey..." "I saw you counting bills in your wallet" "Since I have more money, I'll pay." "Sorry..." "Here" "Ah..." "I feel like an grown-up woman..." "Doctor, is this yours?" "Then whose is it?" "Oh well" "Oh isn't that Doctor Hayasaka's?" "Oh is that right?" "Huh?" "Oh yeah maybe?" "Are you buying a condo?" "No, no at all!" "I'm taking off first" "Take care~" "Here" "Please wait" "Thanks for the return" "We have the part 2 of this movie on the shelf, if you'd like" "Oh no it's ok." "I only watched it because someone recommended it to me." "Good evening" "Good evening" "Here" "This is for sale and not for rental" "I'm buying it" "You don't have to buy it to prove anything." "I'm not." "Don't misunderstand." "2LDK 60 jo(2 rooms, 1 livingroom, 1 dining, approx. 1100sq.ft.) 47 million yen." "oh come on!" "I told you not to sneak up on me like that!" "2LDK..." "Perfect space for a single Or a couple... if you ever get married what do you mean "if you ever"?" "4700 million yen." "I guess doctors do make a lot." "Architects make a lot too, no?" "The other day on TV, I saw this architect living in a luxury house" "Ah~ but I guess that was an exception?" "Ah!" "I just bought the entire collection of Aura no Samurai!" "DVDs are great these days" "This contains 6 hours worth of making-of-the-film and also 2 tracks of audio commentary!" "That's wondeful~" "I'm gonna get going." "Bye~" "What the hell are they doing?" "The design is already done!" "We need to shave off 1 million from the budget" ""Kimura residence contruction plan"" "How about remove the hallway?" "!" "I'm sure the client has his reasons..." "And it's also our job to accommodate them, no?" "We should revise the kitchen... and move this center island towards the wall" "That will ruin my original concept!" "There's no point of me designing it then" "Once in awhile, you need to compromise" "Just send them off to another architect" "If you do that, our income will be zero!" "By reducing the budget, we can still make some money, no?" "Aren't you supposed to be my subordinate?" "Excuse me~" "Yes!" "Oh just sit." "I'll get it." "So it looks like we'll have to refer the client to another architect again." "...and my poverty continues for now~" "At least I wanna pay the bill when I go on a date~" "You're broke because you're dating two different women" "What?" "!" "You're seeing someone other than Saori!" "?" "No!" "That's not true!" "Don't say stuff like that can be misunderstood!" "Just what the heck is that?" ""Life Game"" "It's a remake of 1968's "Life Game"" "Ah... that man buys some weird stuff sometimes~" "Why did it get delivered to the office?" "iono~" "Well, I wouldn't be able to receive pacakges at home" "And it's creepy to come home at night and see a notice on my door and the deliveryman can't wait on me" "One of many inconvenience of a single life" "Wonder what he's going to do with that thing?" "You can't play that by yourself, no?" "Oh is that so?" "You're kuwano-san's mother." " Thank you for looking after my son" " Ah no problem." "This is nothing but..." "Oh no it's ok..." "Please share it with your coworkers" "But" "Please I insist~" "Thank you very much." "So any particular place that hurts?" "Ah..." "I just don't feel well since the morning" "Do you have a fever?" "No, I don't think I have a fever" "Can you show me your throat?" "I can't see anything particulary wrong..." "Maybe it's psychological" "Shinsuke isn't giving me a grandchild" "He takes after me, so he is a very shy person" "He really hasn't found anybody" "But he is really good at what he does... and is highly regarded in the industry." "Ever since he was a child, he tended to focus on just one thing" "Here" "Shinsuke's photo appeared in an article" "Is that so..." "He really is photogenic, no?" "Please feel free to hold on to it" "Please~" "Ah ok..." " Let me take a look" " Sure" " Please have nutritous food..." " Ok" " and good rest" " Ok" "What?" "That's not possible!" "~" "You sure he isn't just trying to scam you?" "Then please pay the half of it for me!" "No?" "Hello?" "Wait a.." "I'm in a pinch!" "What's wrong?" "That was my uncle" "The one got transferred to L.A.?" "I thought the apartment mainenance fee... was going to get taken cared of by uncle" "But the apartment maintenance company just contacted my him about the bill" "And he told me, "You pay for it!"" "Isn't that cruel?" "Isn't that normal?" "And he's renting it out to you very cheap" "But it's 200,000 yen... and I need money for other things." "I'm totally broke~" "It's because you bought all those collars for Ken-chan... all brand names" "But there're so many cute ones~" "Can I borrow some money?" "I have no reason to lend money to anyone" "Please~" "I'm totally broke this month!" "Did you promise to buy a gift for some young girl working at club?" "How did you know?" "I'm your relative afterall" "My monthly allowance is only 80,000 yen~" "How pathetic, a doctor who cannot spend his own money" "That's what you get for marrying" "The meal is ready!" "Ok~" "Here~ it's finally ready" "How much money one earns doesn't determine if he is rich." "It's how much money one can freely spend... that determine's the wealth" "Let's stop with that talk" "Ittadakimasu~" "Ittadakimasu~" "Everything a single person earns is for his to keep" "But if you get married, it goes to your wife and this money-pit" "I didn't come here for your lecture~" "I came to have a nice meal with everyone" "He's just trying to justify his not being married" "But that may no longer be the case..." "Huh?" "Isn't she a wonderful person?" "Who?" "Doctor Hayasaka" "She's so elegant and calm..." "I like that type of people~" "STOP IT!" "Kekkon Dekinai Otoko" "Translation:" "InCyphe (-.,-);" "Ah!" "Good evening" "Do you pay monthly maintenance fee?" "What's that?" "What do you mean?" "Don't you get a bill?" "No" "Huh?" "How come?" "How do you manage to live in a place like this anyway?" "Oh my uncle lives here" "But he got transfered to America So I'm living here while he's away" "Mystery solved." "So I guess you do pay attention to other people" "But how come you don't get a bill every month..." "Because my house is 'bunjo jintai' (note:" "The closet thing I can think of is co-op -.,-;)" "What's co-op?" "Nevermind" "Please answer it when someone asks a question" "Hey!" "You can't do that!" "This is not a telephone pole!" "I shouldn't have done it~" "This game's only flaw is..." "the fact that you have to get married" "A house for $50,000" "How cheap" "So I need to reduce the budget by 1 million yen..." "Well it's not possible" "Good morning~" "Good morning~" "Sawazaki-san, here's your commission from last month" "Ok~" "Hmm this is correct" "But if you turn away Kimura-san as client... do you think the firm can stay afloat?" "Umm..." "Hello" "Kuwano-san has no concept of money" "It'd be nice if he can reduce the budget by 1 million yen..." "I wonder if he has a retirement plan..." "You've been diligently saving your money, no?" "Not saving, investing." "Investing?" "You work to earn an income, and you make that money to work for you" "That's investing" "Actually I can go into details about that" "Eiji-kun you shoud..." "Oh no it's ok It really doesn't apply to me anyway" "Good morning" "Good morning" "Here~" "Good work~" "Sawazaki-san, about what I said earlier..." "I never two-timed with anyone" "I don't let these things just slide" "I only had meals with her!" "Who are you talking about?" "I had exactly one meal with the person who went to hospital with Kuwano-san." "You know, just as an appreciation" "Sure... to appreciate her as a woman" "That's not what I meant!" "So I can never eat with another woman?" " No, it's ok" " Oh really?" "I'm going to meet her" "Meet who?" " Her" " How come?" "Your friend is also my friend" "So please set something up for us, ok?" "Excuse me" "Yes" "Where can I find island for kitchen?" "You can find those on the second floor" "Still 400,000 yen to go" "Yes" "This is Hayasaka from Nakagawa General Hospital" "I'll let you borrow my DVD part 2" "No thank you" "When your mom visited here the other day, she left her fan here" "So she called and asked me to return it to you" "Then just throw it away" "I can't do that!" "This looks very expensive~" "It looks like a high-end item" "She left it there on purpose" "So you guys have been dating for a year?" "That's right" "Right?" "Yup" "Oh really?" "You said you weren't seeing anyone?" "Eh did I say that?" "So you did say that" "Ah..." "I could've heard it wrong" "Eiji is just a friend, so you have nothing to worry about is what he asked me to tell you when he called me earlier" "Why would you do something like that?" "!" "No no, I was just trying to explain the truth" "Honestly, when I first met him I thought he was kind of cool" "But as a boyfriend, I really want someone who is a bit more smart, has a good future, and more money ... is what she said?" "Besides, Eiji is always trying to act cool, right?" "Like how he tries to buy you a meal even if when he's broke" "And you always split the bill with me?" "!" "No no!" "It was a first time, so I was trying to be nice!" "And in the end, we ended up splitting the bill anyway" "Right?" "Hello" "Ah yes!" "Yes" "I understand." "I'll try to pay by next week" "I'm sorry..." "Thank you, bye~" "So it's next week~" "You're buying me today!" "What's the matter?" "Steak set, vanilla sandwich special" "Ok..." "And a beer" "Hello" "Hello" "Sorry for making you come out here" "Oh no it's ok, I came here for shopping anyway" "Me too" "Welcome" "Umm..." "Ice cocoa please" "Yes ma'am" "So you're having something to drink?" "Why, I can't drink?" "I came here to just get the fan" "Well I'm a bit thirsty" "Oh so before I forget, here's the fan" "I swear I put it in!" "Sorry" "Excuse me" "You're going?" "If I drink here, I'd be playing right into my Mom's hand" "Huh?" "I'll get this" "There is no reason for you to pay for me" "What should I do with the fan?" "Hello" "What are you doing now?" "Waiting for my ice cocoa in vain" "I thought I want to meet you now~" "I'm not in a good mood right now" "So whenever you're in a bad mood you want to meet me?" "I think you're a great listener" "So where are you now?" "Aww how pretty~~" "Oh no no no..." "I must resist" "Look!" "How's this?" "Ah it's so nice!" "Really?" "Then let me get one in a different color too" "Wow, adults spend money differently~" "I wouldn't buy two things that were similar" "As you get older, you spend money differently" "For makeup kits, you pay more attention to the ingredients" "So instead of caring about how you look to other, you care more about how it makes you feel?" "Ah... sure.." "Buying underwear becomes a real challenge" "After 30, your fight with the gravity begins" "You need to find clothes that fit you well" "So even though no one will see them anymore, you still have to pay attention~" "Uh, sure..." "So you're buying your own place?" "Well I'm not sure" "Are you giving up on marriage?" "Well," "I can always sell it back Or rent it out" "Mm... but don't men avoid women who own their own place?" "Really?" "Have you checked out house showrooms?" "Nope" "I'm afraid I'll find something I like" "Ah I think I understand" "But it must be nice that you can afford to own a place~" "So to me, it sounds like you're just bragging~" "Your place is a lot bigger than mine!" "Young people wouldn't be able to afford a place like that!" "Actually, I have a secret lover (married man)" "Really?" "I was just joking!" "Ah really" "But I really like where I live~" "Ah!" "Ah!" "He is here!" "I met him earlier" "I guess he's still shopping" "Is he buying a hat?" "Oh my~ he looks like a grandpa!" "What if he gets it in beige?" "That's a criminal look!" "But I think it suits him better in some way" "Can you understand him?" "I don't want to even try" "Looks like he gave up" "Is he really buying it?" "He is buying it!" "Shall we go?" "Sure" "Hey" "What?" "Did you wear that coming here?" "No..." "If you have something to say, say it" "I don't think it suits you" "Wow, Kaneda updated his web site" "This is a hat I like" "I bought it in Milano" "Kuwano-san, have you talked to Michiru lately?" "Michiru?" "Ah your neighbor..." "Yup" "Something is amiss with her" "It looks like she's in some kind of trouble..." "Have you noticed anything?" "Probably not" "Oh, that reminds me She is having trouble paying a maintenance fee" "She kind of looked troubled" "Ah that's it!" "It's a money problem" "You solved the puzzle." "How nice." "Why don't you lend her some money?" "This is for real, unlike your "Life Game"" "It's because she buys things like a dog" "But the dog keeps her accompanied and keeps her healthy" "With that dog?" "What do you do with all the money you earn?" "After you die, all that money saved is of no use!" "Fine~" "Alright, let's go with this" "What?" "Hello" "What's up?" "I think I can cut back 1 million yen" "I'll move the kitchen sink, and reconfigure the center island" "That way we can keep the kitchen as the center of the house and still reduce the cost" "Really?" "Well, you guys already sent the client to another architect..." "I haven't done it yet~" "I thought you'd figure it out" "Then please let the client know" "I feel like I've been scammed..." "Let's revise the plan ok!" "Hello~" "Hello~" "What are you doing in a place like this?" "Ah I was just on a lunch break..." "Sorry" "I thought you were more of a stoic person..." "Ah... probably because I'm wearing a doctor's gown..." "Must be tough being a doctor" "What kind of work do you do?" "I interface with customers who want to build houses, and refer them to the most appropriate architects, and provide assistance from start to finish" "It must be nice to be able to create something~" "Well I just provide support Kuwano is the one who creates" "The kitchen is so spacious and bright!" "Isn't it?" "Actually, I figured I wasn't going to get married, so I once considered buying my own place too" "Really?" "But when I look at the houses he designs I sometimes think to myself... how nice it would be to live with someone in a house like that" "So I didn't go through with it" "Ah I think I can relate" "When a woman buys her own condo doesn't it means she'll spend the rest of her life alone?" "I don't completely agree" "You can sell or rent it out" "Ah that's true" "I guess I'm not familiar with those things" "Women our age should think about those things  and decide whether to get married or invest." "But I'm always so busy with work..." "Well you can't really use that as an excuse..." "Ah you're probably right" "If you have any questions about investing, feel free to ask me anything" "What if I have questions about marriage?" "Well that really isn't..." "Thank you for waiting" "Sorry~" "Only because you're a close relative..." "I asked her what she wants for present, and she said she needs a Louis Vuitton purse..." "I owe you big~" "Who is the present for?" "Oh it's someone you don't know..." "MOM!" "I want a present too!" "Hey Yumi!" "So you went to a club?" "Yeah so it's not really cheating..." "How is that different?" "!" "Yeah, so how IS that different?" "!" "Who's side are you on?" "!" "?" "!" "Neither" "Hey check this out..." "Yumi says she wants to learn piano" "It's the first time she said she wants to learn something on her own!" "Mm that's true..." "Let's buy her one" "Yumi is going to require more money from now on... and the house still isn't paid off... so I'm going to reduce your allowance" "What?" "!" "And your answer is?" "Ok..." "I'm confiscating that money" "Hey wait a minute" "What is it?" "Isn't that my money?" "Ok fine!" "You haven't changed a bit" "Welcome" "Are you by yourself today?" "Why I can't come here by myself?" "What would you like?" "A glass of Macallan." "Yes sir" "I have a present for you may I put it on for you?" "Yes" "Thank you~" "Wasn't it expensive?" "Well, I just picked whatever that suit you the best" "I'm going to go look in the mirror" "Sure go ahead" "Have we met before?" "Nope" "Here you go" " Bartender" " Yes" "Lately I've been feeling that love is something you buy with money" "It would be nice to have that much money" "I'm not saying it's a good thing, I'm saying that's just how things are these days" "But..." "Spending money for love is, the best way to spend money" "You're right" "So?" "Thank you" "It fits perfectly" "How nice would it be, if you bought me a house~" "Sure thing~" "Do you want me to design the plan too?" "Really?" "I'd like to have a large kitchen" "I can't do that" "I don't make women's kitchen a central part of the house... because that puts focus on ordinary living." "So instead... rather than the kitchen, let's make the bedroom big" "I'm so happy~~~ then can we have a bed that reaches the ceiling too?" "absolutely yes" "One more Macallan." "Make that double." "Yes sir" "Oh that was a great meal~" "Thank you~" "Michiru-chan, let's spend 1 more hour together" "I just want to talk to you" "Your eyes tell me you think I'm thinking about sex!" "It's absoultely not true!" "I'll get permission from your boss~" "Here you go" "Thanks" "Come on in" "Have a seat" "What's the matter?" "Well my stomach is feeling queezy" "Your stomach?" "It feels a bit different from the usual" "Did you drink last night?" "Ah well..." "How much?" "Little bit" "How little?" "About 4-5 drinks... double" "That's ok~" "You are just hung over" "It's possible that it's something else" "I'll prescribe medicine" "What if you are wrong?" "Ah, I heard from Sawazaki-san yesterday that you were able to reduce the budget by 1 million yen" "Why did you guys meet?" "She told me the client was really happy because with the money saved, he can buy a car for his father" "Money that's not spent on someone, ...eventually gets spent on someone else" "You've really done a good thing~" "Don't tell me you've worked as a volunteer doctor?" "Like bringing water to sick people doing check-ups for people living in a remote village" "You may go now~" "I guess working at a club didn't really suit me~" "It's going to impossible to get the money ready for this week" "What am I going to do~~~" "Who is it at this hour?" "!" "What the..." "If he jumps me, you have to help, ok?" "I won't jump you" "What is it?" "It's about the maintenance fee" "You're struggling over it right?" "So, what about it?" "What are you going to do?" "Why should I have to tell you anything?" "I'm thinking of moving out" "This place really doesn't suit me after all" "I can always look for another place to live" "You came here to ask me that?" "What is this?" "It's ok" "I have no reason to borrow money from you!" "And I have no reason to lend them to you" "What are you talking about?" "!" "I don't want to see you struggle like that" "You work part time at the club, right?" "I happened to see it..." "When the customer was groping you" "You shouldn't work at those places" "I really don't have a choice, so I have to bear with it" "Well it must be painful for that customer too" "He'd rather be with younger, ...college girls at the bar" "So if you accept this money it'll spare you and your customers from misery!" "That's what's best for people and this world" "And I can feel good about it too for spending money in such a noble way" "So don't refuse" "It's money that would've been spent anyhow" "How can you say something like that..." "Are you having fun treating me like an idiot?" "!" "Hangover again?" "Well my stomach is a bit..." "Did something happen?" "If you tell me, you might feel better" "Come on out, it feels good!" "You're right~" "Did Kuwano-san say something about me?" "Mm yeah, that you are having a money problem" "He's a weirdo~" "So I figured maybe I can help you out..." "Oh no it's ok" "I've never had to borrow money from anybody" "Yeah I know but..." "Besides, I gave up already." "I'll move back in with my parents at Saitama" "I told my uncle I'm moving out  and that he should find a tenant who can pay" "But don't you like this house?" "Except my next door neighbor" "But thank you" "Ah, excuse me" "What are you doing?" " Oh come on, what's this now?" "!" " What's wrong?" "Uncle just told me he'd take care of the bill this time" "Really?" "Rather than renting it out to some stranger, he'd prefer me" "He's always like that~" "Well that's good!" "I spent all this time worrying" "It was a good lesson for you" "You need to properly manage your finance" "You're right" "If you can't, then you're not mature enough to live alone" "Yup yup" "I've decided!" "What?" "that I'm going to marry a man who owns a luxury condo!" "Thanks for your concern" "My neighbor is such a know-it-all" "He was probably getting a kick out of my problem" "It didn't seem that way" "He talks brash sometimes, but I don't think he's a bad person" "You think so?" "Anyway it's nice that you have a neighbor who looks after you" "He's a bit eccentric" "Very eccentric~" "I wonder if anyone would marry him?" "I couldn't imagine" "Me neither" "Such a pretty skyline~" "Isn't it?" "Cheers!" "Good morning" "Welcome~" "Mr. Kimura was very happy with the revised plan!" "Oh really" "What's this?" "so unfashionable!" " It has a feather" " Wait Maya-san!" " Where did this hat come from?" " Maya-san!" "Do you want to go out for lunch?" "Sure, let's go!" "I have to work" "Well shall we go?" "Let's go?" "Know where you want to go?" "Italian place called Mamirago is nice I hear" "Sounds good!" "Do you have coupon?" "Of course!" "You're the best~" "What coupon..."
