Warm, Juicy (English Dub Version)

Ryo: That rice is crumbling in my taste buds...and the deep-fried tofu was savory and juicy as well. So that's what happiness tastes like.

(Theme song)

Ryo: Shaving the radishes one by one...so they won't be out of shape. Pour the hot water over the salted yellowtail to get rid of the odor. Turn the oven on, and watch carefully to let it boil. I'll just touch it and give it some emotions. The food will be glad to respond by being delicious. The food will not be glad to be so yummy! How did it taste bad when it smells so good like that? Grandma, since it happened, I was home alone. But, I don't know why I'm such a bad cook.

Ryo's Grandma: Now, listen up, little Ryo. Woman can cook around in order to be a good housewife.

Ryo: Sorry, grandma! From now on, I'm going to be such a bad cook this year! How disappointing!

(Phone rings)

Ryo: Hello? This is Ryo Machiko.

Akira: Hiya, Ryo! How's it going up there?

Ryo: Hi, Aunt Akira!

Akira: I'm sorry I forgot New Year's Day. I'm just getting a little hustle at work.

Ryo: Everything's A-OK! Thanks for working hard!

Akira: Ryo, this is an urgent issue. And you know I can't leave an 8th grade girl home alone. And I'm your aunt. You and me should be together.

Ryo: I'm fine, really. Besides, I had to change my decision of life fo my solitary life, ya know? It's way better than to have someone a bad work day.

Akira: What was that you said?

Ryo: Oh! Nothing. Wait. That reminds me of something, I was hoping you'll do anything for me.

Yuki: (Sniffs) I smell Yellowtail with daikon.

Ryo: My cousin Kirin is going to prep school? Really?

Akira: Of course. She wanted to go to an art club school just to let you know. She's also having a course every Sunday. How about you move it up to Saturdays?

Ryo: Does she want to go to the same school as I am? I need to study for the test. And I'm worried sick that I won't have anything for her to eat at dinner time.

Akira: No need to worry! All you have to do is wear an apron in the buff!

Ryo: Seriously?! (Narrating) And so, I was embarrassed as I accepted the task. I can't believe they're so lucky. A cold day should be spent in a warm and cozy room with a beloved one, and making lovely dishes and relationships. (Yelps) Hey! Who's pulling my scarf?! I need air! Whew. Huh?

Kirin: You must be my cousin I was looking for. My name is Kirin Morino! Nice to meet you!

Ryo: Hey. You're my second cousin who's the same as my age?

Kirin: Yep! That's me!

Ryo: But you seem so little.

Kirin: What?

Ryo: It's nothing. Anywho, your things look super heavy. Are you gonna carry all your things by yourself?

Kirin: Uh-huh! And I have faith inside my heart. Oh! And that reminds me. You're welcome to get this back!

Ryo: Is that a napa cabbage?

Kirin: I swiped a few from my house.

Ryo: You swiped?! You mean you didn't ask permission to get this?

Kirin: Yeah...sort of...
