Girl: Let’s decide on this then! ---------------------------------- Pg 06 Girl 1 (Right): But this fish is a little expensive… Girl 1: What if we screw up… by buying something this expensive?

Watanuki: ? ---------------------------------- Pg 12 Yuuko: So Yuuko: Yakitaori became chicken tapenyaki? Watanuki: Sorry! I didn’t have enough time to put them on the stick.

We ended up not finding the contact lens… Although I tried my best to help her Maru & Moro: Hah! ---------------------------------- Pg 13 Yuuko: …It’s very obvious why. Watanuki: Yeah, because the sky was already getting dark. Watanuki: Also, contact lenses are so small… Yuuko: That’s not the situation at all. ---------------------------------- Pg 14 Yuuko: Because even before you start looking… Yuuko: You had already been “tied down”, so you wouldn’t have been able to find it. ---------------------------------- Pg 15 Yuuko: The lifeform… Yuuko: … Consists of many different kinds of ties.

Watanuki: Yes. ---------------------------------- Pg 20 Doumeki: Are those twins really human? Watanuki: Huh? Doumeki: The person we ran into the other time was… a Zashikiwarashi Doumeki: Then there is a possibility that those twins are not human.

Onee’s sister: I’m the younger sister! ---------------------------------- Pg 23 Watanuki: I apologize. I’ve made a mistake. Onee’s sister: Even our parents make mistakes sometimes. Onee’s sister: The only people that can tell the difference are perhaps the two of us. Onee’s sister: Oh yeah. Onee’s sister: Excuse me. ---------------------------------- Pg 24 Yuuko: Then you have a date with the twins? Watanuki: Even though I said it was okay, they still want to thank us.

Mokona: Yup! Mokona: Oh, by the way Yuuko thanks for the chocolate! Mokona: it was very yummy! Mokona: Kurogane said Yuuko would not give the chocolate for free so he didn’t want to eat it. Mokona: But Fye stuffed it in his mouth while he was talking! So he ended up eating it! ---------------------------------- Pg 29 Yuuko: Ahehehehe Yuuko: As long as he ate one bite, that’s enough. How I’m very excited! Yuuko: I need him to repay double the amount! Yuuko: Oh yeah, Mokona, Where are you now? Mokona: We’re in a small town called *Sakuraso-mething* country. I’m inside Sakura-chan’s room. Mokona: We all have our own rooms! Mokona: but the only room that has a mirror is Sakura-chan’s room. So this is the only place I can talk to you. Yuuko: Sakura-chan is not there? Mokona: Uh huh. Right now Syaoran-kun and Sakura-chan are working in the store downstairs. Kurogane and Fye are out already. Yuuko: What kind of store is it?

Yuuko: Let’s call it “Cat’s eye”!! Mokonas: It’s a manga that Yuuko read! Yuuko: That’s right, speaking of which, I think that’s the only store that uses a black cat as a logo. “City Hunter” is not bas as well! I like Makimura-oniichan.

Onee’s sister: Thanks for waiting. ---------------------------------- Pg 35 Watanuki: No, we’ve only just arrived. Onee’s sister: That’s good. Let’s go then. Onee’s sister: We have to walk quite a distance. Don’t be nervous okay? Doumeki: Yes. Onee: Sorry I didn’t ask for your contact, and I didn’t realize until I got home. Watanuki: No, it’s okay.
