Unlike boys, girls have
Feelings that can be very complex.
But if they fall in love,
They can make some real magic.
That's right, the heart of a girl
Floats, rocking on the crescent moon
While she tries to find her dreams.
And when she falls in love,
She does so delicately.
Falls in love. Falls in love.
Falls in love.
Snake Joe's Counterattack
The quality of your work has really fallen.
B-B-B-But!
Just take this and leave already!
I'm sorry, but we have no interest in your work!
Darn it!
Everything is Creamy Mami's fault!
I've been given the nickname "Snake,"
but I can't seem to figure out who Mami really is.
The petals that I tore off
Fly away in the wind.
My feelings of love and hatred
Creamy Mami ...
I'll expose her somehow or other,
and then I'll be back at the top of the entertainment reporters!
Remember this!
So where did Mami first appear?
Was it at the TV station? No ...
It wasn't a TV or a radio station.
Right ...
It was at that crepe stand!
That crepe stand is the key to exposing her!
There's something there, there has to be!
Toshio-chan, let's go already.
No way! She's going to come out any minute now!
Then I'll go by myself.
W-Wait a minute! Just a little bit longer!
I'll even buy you some chocolates after.
Really? Then I'll wait.
That's a good boy.
Geez, that's dangerous!
I'm sorry. I was just in a hurry.
Mami-san!
Are you okay? Are you hurt or anything?
N-No. I'm fine. I'm really sorry about that.
Later.
Umm ...
Why don't you take the train or bus home sometime?
Huh?
Even if we didn't go the same way the whole time,
I just thought ... it'd be nice to go back together.
B-But if it's impossible ...
It's fine. Bye.
Wait!
It's okay. We can go back together.
Really?
Woohoo!
I get to go back home with Mami-san!
Hey, won't it be bad if Mami doesn't hurry?
Her dad and morn aren't home today.
Yeah, and they said that they'd call her at seven!
Yeah.
But I understand the girlish feeling of wanting to go home with Toshio.
Whatever! Who cares about that!
Wow ... so if you ride the train like this, nobody will know that you're Mami-san.
Nobody seems to be noticing.
What about my chocolate?
But I didn't expect you to be riding the same train as us.
I'm surprised.
Ah, yeah.
Kurimigaoka Ah, yeah.
Kurimigaoka
What?
Do this mean we're even at the same stop?
No ... I just thought I'd say goodbye at the ticket gate.
Wow! That's so nice of you!
Geez, this is why these girly feelings cause problems.
I guess so ...
Goodbye, Mami-san!
I hope we get a chance to do this again sometime!
Farewell! Farewell!
Bye bye! See you later!
Oh no! I have to hurry!
Huh?
What's Mami doing?
Dunno.
Hey, what's going on, Mami?
I have to transform into Yuu somewhere!
You're fine today! Nobody's at home, right?
So just hurry! They'll be calling any minute!
Oh! Right!
Well, I've been fine so far.
Mami!
Yes! Hello?
No. Nothing's any different.
No, I'm fine.
Nope.
You don't have to worry, Mom.
Well, have a good time. Say hi to Dad for me. Bye bye!
I knew it!
The Magical Fairy Creamy Mami
is really just the crepe stand owner's daughter.
I've got something good now.
This is getting interesting.
Candid Camera, to surprise Creamy Mami?
Yeah! I have a great idea for it.
I've heard rumors about you. And they aren't very good ones.
Try another station.
Please, just hear me out, Mr. Producer ...
I'm busy today ...
So first off, we have Creamy Mami become the postmaster for a day,
and have her handing out fliers or something, along with the staff.
And when the fliers run out, we have her go get more from a different room,
and the fake post office that we've made turns into a crepe shop!
What do you think?
A crepe shop?
That does sound interesting.
Right?
This plan is bound to work.
Well, let's try it.
Can you leave the design of the crepe shop to me?
Sure, go ahead.
Thanks.
But wait.
What is it?
I get why you'd choose a post office, but why a crepe shop?
Because Mami loves crepes.
Is that all?
That's all I'm saying. Just look forward to the real thing!
Later!
Crepes, eh?
I'm feeling good today, so it's my treat.
Here you go.
So what kind of show are you going to be on?
Candid Camera! So make sure to watch it!
Oh? And who are they going to be tricking?
I think it's a secret.
They won't even tell us.
Are you okay with that?
It seems like it's the opposite way they normally do things.
Don't worry about it.
They said that all we'd have to do was keep quiet and make crepes like normal.
Hmph!
It's not that exciting to be on TV.
Public Bar
Here you go!
Thanks.
I've really managed a great idea with this Candid Camera thing.
Mami is sure to be shocked
when her real parents are making crepes right there in from of her!
"What are you doing here, Dad? Mom!"
I'm sure she'll shout something like that.
This is really going to be great.
And then I'll be the top entertainment reporter again! I've waited so long!
Wait!
What if she doesn't shout at all?
Oh, aren't you that entertainment reporter, Ice?
It's me. Oh, weren't you an actor?
Yeah, and a popular one, too. But now I've fallen from grace.
Why don't you come drink with me, Joe-san?
Oh!
Hey, do you want to be on TV again?
What?
Kitacho Post Office
Okay, next.
Make sure to write your postal code!
And the 23rd of every month is Letter-Writing Day!
Oh no! We've run out!
Could you please get some more from the back?
Okay!
Mami's sure to be surprised!
I think she'll be more pleased than surprised.
She loves crepes!
It'll be great either way!
And I'm sure she'll be even more popular than ever.
I wonder if it'll go that well ...
Hello, everyone!
You're all here.
Snake Joe! What are you doing here?
Why don't you explain it to them, producer!
Huh?
Actually, he's the one who developed this plan.
W-What was that?
What are you scheming this time?
Why do you have to expect the worst from me?
I've just sold a good idea.
Like I'd believe that!
You're quite a mistrustful boss, aren't you.
What did you say?!
Boss!
She'll be coming back soon!
Shout it, Mami! Go ahead and shout!
Dad! Mom!
Sorry ... I'm just so excited that I can't hold it in.
Wasn't this a post office?
This has been a crepe stand for ten years now.
It's no good.
Maybe we should expose the scenario about now, don't you think?
It's still too early, boss.
Yeah, I want to watch a little longer.
Yeah. I want to see how the crepe shop owners go along with it
as they get anxious waiting for us to come in.
That should go on TV.
That sounds entertaining!
Let's do that!
Tetsu, when are they going to do the big reveal?
I'd like to know the same thing.
Do you think they're turning the tables on us?
No way ... l think ...
Don't move!
The money! Give me all your money! Hurry!
P-Producer! ls this some new part of Candid Camera?
N-NO way!
If you keep stalling, it'll be the end of her!
W-We don't have any money here.
It's true!
Don't mess with me!
That guy plays a pretty convincing act.
Hurry up! I'm not a patient man.
B-But we really don't have any money here!
He's not lying!
Geez! Then I guess you don't care what happens to her.
Mami!
Shingo!
It's too dangerous to go in by yourself, boss!
Kidokoro!
Y-Yes, sir?
Come with me, please!
Oh? So you're going to play dumb to the end?
Then I'll be taking her life!
Wait!
And who are you?
I-I-I'm that girl ... Mami-chan's ... manager.
And the man behind you?
H-He's the company ...
I'm not asking you!
If you don't answer, I'll kill her!
W-Wait!
I-I'm the CEO of Parthenon Productions.
And M-Mami's our only big star!
What about me?!
W-We can get you as much money as you want.
Just hand over Mami, please!
Oh? You really take care of your employees, don't you, boss?
Well, certainly. In the business world, the boss has to care for his workers.
Right, Manager?
And how do you care for your workers? This is no fun.
H-How much do you want?
100 million? 1 billion? 10 billion?
Get me 3 trillion yen.
Y-You must be joking!
I'm joking.
H-Honestly, I'll give you 50,000 ...
I mean 56,000! 56,200 yen!
I don't need money!
But instead ...
I-Instead?
Will you let me come work for you?
That idiot!
Please?
Please, boss. I used to be an actor, don't you remember?
"The White Horse Samurai."
Galloping in and out like the wind, acting as an ally of justice.
Oh, I remember!
Crushing the weak and saving the strong! The White Horse Samurai!
That's it, that was me. Me!
Oh, is that so?
I miss that time ...
You're right ...
So please let me return once more, so that I can have one more chance.
Please, boss?
We've got Mami!
Oh, shoot. You caught me with that stupid act of yours.
Don't treat me like a fool!
Now what have they started?
Maybe we should have called the police.
Yeah, I'll go call them.
Wait a second!
What is it?
It's just an act! An act!
Do you mean that you planned all of this?
You got it.
You should have let us know that from the start!
Yeah! Don't just surprise us!
"In order to deceive your enemies, you must also deceive your friends."
Just look at the big fight scene with Mr. Tachibana!
I see ... and that is entertaining.
I agree.
I'm s-sorry about earlier,
but I really would be willing to hire you at our company.
I promise!
S-So please don't do anything rash!
You can't fool me!
Stop it!
Shaddup!
Mom!
Oh, yeah!
Stop it!
Stop!
Don't move!
Hurry! Get the police!
G-Got it!
Candid Camera
What?! This was all part of Candid Camera?
Yep! That's how it was!
You little ...! I knew I had reason to mistrust you!
W-Wait just a minute!
I've just discovered an essential piece of information!
What new information? Are you taking me for a fool?
I know who Mami's parents are!
Mami's what?
Her parents?
Exactly: her father and mother, dad and morn, daddy and mommy.
What are you talking about here?
Didn't you hear her?
She just shouted "Mom!"
Mom!
You heard her, right, everyone?
You saw it! Creamy Mami is the daughter of these two!
I've finally done it.
And now all of the hard days are behind me,
and I can finally return to the top of the entertainment reporters.
H-H-H-H-Hey! Let me go!
Uncle! Uncle! Uncle!
Oh, right.
On me, cameraman.
So, all you viewers of this week's Candid Camera,
and all you fans of Creamy Mami, here we have it.
These are Mami-chan's parents!
Don't be shy, you two! You're on TV!
Smile! Smile!
There you go.
Wait a minute.
What?
Just how old do you think we are?
What do you mean?
Do we look like we could have a kid her age?!
Excuse me for asking, but how old are you?
I'm 28! 28!
So, if Mami-chan is 15 or 16, her mother would have been ... umm ...
It wouldn't be that strange ...
Like that would happen!
Let's go, Tetsu! I won't let him treat us like this!
E-Excuse us ...
Don't be so nice to them.
You couldn't possibly believe what that woman said, could you?
Those two have to be Mami-chan's parents!
It's true! It doesn't matter how old they are!
Right? Don't you believe me?
You'd better believe me, you little ...
You believe me, don't you, producer?
About Mami-chan's dad and mom.
Right, Megumi-chan?
Didn't you see her eyes when she came into the crepe stand?
You believe me, right, everyone?
Look! Look! Look!
Right!
Mami-chan, I heard you say on the phone at the crepe stand,
"Well, have a good time. Say hi to Dad for me!"
And again, Mami-chan is being spiteful.
But today you really did shout "Mom," didn't you?
Right? Right? Right? Riiiiight?
What is it, everyone?
This is some real big information right here in front of you,
and you're telling me you don't believe it?
Hey! Hey! Hey! Believe it!
I saw it! Please, everyone believe me!
Let's go, everyone.
Yeah, let's go.
Indeed, let's go.
Don't get so down, Snake Joe.
You'll just have to try again.
Later.
And where's my pay?
Did you really expect to get anything?
So you think you can double-cross me?
You'd better pay up quick! I have a short temper!
I-I-I don't have it!
What?!
H-Help me!
You promised!
What are you doing?
Ouch!
Why, you little!
Huh ... so they got Mami-chan's parents wrong?
That's right, Toshio-kun!
But it doesn't feel that bad.
Tetsu!
Hmm?
I bet you didn't mind it either, right, ma'am?
Hey! Toshio-kun!
I guess you're right. I'd feel bad for Mami-chan's mother.
That's exactly right.
Don't you feel a little bad for Snake Joe?
What? Don't worry about him. He'll be back on his feet right away.
Yeah, but wasn't that a close call, Yuu?
Yeah, I'll have to be more careful from now on.
Maybe he's sneaking around here right now!
My pride as a man depends on this!
I'm going to expose her one day!
Money.
Y-Y-You!
Help me!
Wait!
Help me!
My money! Wait!
Shingo is getting neurotic about Mami's last-minute appearances,
and so he's been trying to follow her to try to figure out where she lives.
With some convincing from me, he's disguised himself as a girl
to take over the job of Mami's manager, but something is getting in her way!
Next Time: Tachibana-san Becomes a Lady?!
See you then!
The petals that I tore off
Fly away in the wind.
And my feelings of love and hatred
Come and go!
I want to ask your heart ...
You can't be afraid of being hurt,
Because, you see ...
Love is feeling.
And love is touching.
It's nothing big.
The crescent moon is like a boomerang.
Wobbling as it flies to you!
Always loving!
I want you to feel my love!
Somebody is loving!
I have a dream of being in love ...
