p3
>It just doesn't really interest us since we barely ever use it...
>Yeah.
>Seriously!?

>Kids these days are all about riding the waves of social media to seek recognition and go viral!
>I don't like how you phrased that...

>So, how exactly do you go "viral"?
>Eh~ Well, the fastest solution would be...

>with some erotic
>Yeah, no.

p4
>Why not!? Even if it's impossible for Ritsu, we'd go viral right away if Ruka-chan stripped a little and got all moist!
>Whaddaya mean "impossible for me"!? I've got sex appeal too, y'know!

>You okay with having your faces shown, by the way?
>Well... I'm okay with it.
>Yeah.
>Alright! Let's do this, Ruka-chan.
>Eh? Me?

>I guess you're not suited for it...
>Yeah yeah. Don't worry. I can just get Ritsu to do it.
>No! I'll do it! I'll do it, y'hear!!

>Kh... Fuhihihi

>Man~

p11
>All that laughing made me hungry~
>Yeah~
>Well all it made me was angry.

>I said I was sorry.
>As an apology, I'll make dinner today, so please forgive me!
>Eh? You're gonna make it!? It's not gonna set on fire or explode or anything!?

>What are you saying? There's no way you can cause an explosion just by cooking, right...?
>I-I guess not. Ahaha...

>Alright, I'm gonna go buy some ingredients! Help me out, Ritsu!
>Ah, hey.
>You take it easy, Ruka-chan!
>S-Sure.

p12
>Just so you know, I can't eat anything that's high in calories right now, got it?
>Yeah, I know~ You're such a worrywart.

>Well you do seem like you'd make something deep-fried just to spite me.
>Who the heck do you think I am?

>It'll be fine. I've already settled on the dish and ingredients.
>Heh~ Whatcha gonna use?

p13
>Catfish.
>You're totally doing this to spite me.

>A supermarket's not gonna have catfish anyway...
>No, it does. Some really tasty ones.

>See? Look.

>Huh? This is...

p14
>"Pangasius", huh?

>I see you're well-informed, Ruka-chan.
>Sounds like the name of a kaiju.
>Sounds strong, huh?

>Hey, Ruka, is this really catfish?
>Well, it's technically a catfish,

p15
>but it's different from the Japanese kind.
>It's been raised to be edible in Southeast Asia and imported into Japan.
>Heh~?

>It's relatively cheap and low in calories, so it's really well-suited for the diet.
>You sure know your stuff, Kusunoki-san.

>Well, I do a lot of cooking since I have a big family.
>Heh~

>There's also...
>Ah! That's good...
>...

p16
>S-So?
>What are we making today?

>I figured we'd bash out some acqua pazza.
>Acqua pazza! I know that one!

>It's one of those fancy dishes, right!?
>Right!?
>Yeah, kinda.

>Although it's seen as fancy Italian food these days,
>it apparently started out as a so-called "fisherman's lunch" that fisherman would prepare and eat on the spot.
>Heh! That's really surprising!

>Yeah, yeah. Which means it's pretty simple to make too...

p17
>Chop.
>1. Chop the garlic, broccoli and lemon, remove the sand from the manila clams, and remove the stems from the cherry tomatoes.

>Grill.
>2. Simmer the garlic in olive oil on a low heat. Once the fragrance starts to rise, grill the pangasius.

>Stew.
>3. Flip the pangasius over and add the clams, tomatoes, broccoli, lemon, white wine, seasoning and water.
>That's all you have to do!
>Now we just put the lid on, wait 10 minutes and...

p18
>It's ready!
>Pangasius Acqua Pazza

>It turned into some pretty flashy cuisine.
>Well, I've got a big family,
>so going big is my specialty.
>It's pretty big, so let's call some other people over...
>...

>Hm? What's wrong, Ruka?
>...Y'know...

p19
>Wouldn't this work
>for that "viral" stuff you mentioned earlier?

>Eh?

>Ooh...
>Oooh...!

p20
