What a beautiful man.
Are you the new fiancée?
Yes.
Remember, while you're here
you must absolutely follow my orders.
If I tell you to leave, you leave.
If I tell you to die, you die.
I won't listen to
any complaints or objections.
Yes, sir.
Huh?
Is there anything else?
I look forward to living here with you.
My new life with Kiyoka Kudo
started this way in a quiet fashion.
MY HAPPY MARRIAGE
EPISODE 2
ABOUT MY HUSBAND-TO-BE
Please use this room, Ms. Miyo.
Thank you for your kind consideration.
Ms. Miyo.
Yes?
I'm aware of the bad rumors
about Young Master,
but actually, he is a kind man.
Well, I'll excuse myself now.
Thank you, Ms. Yurie.
These are high-grade futons.
I thought he'd be more abusive
or treat me with contempt.
I was even ready to be
abruptly thrown out of the house.
Because I'm from the Saimori family,
he probably thinks
that I have supernatural abilities.
If so
Now, I'm going to test you
to see if you have Spirit-Sight.
Miyo, Kaya, sharpen your senses.
- Yes.
- Yes.
I'm opening it.
Ah! Stay away.
Kaya!
No! Don't come near me!
If you were able to see the Grotesqueries,
you have Spirit-Sight!
You'll also gain supernatural abilities
one day. Good job, Kaya!
Supernatural abilities?
SIX MONTHS LATER
How nice.
So you're able to see even more now?
Yesterday, I was able to move
the shiki-gami a bit.
Wasn't I a good girl?
Of course, she has talent.
We are Kaya's birth parents, after all.
She isn't like that good-for-nothing
who can't use Spirit-Sight at all.
Ms. Miyo.
It'll be all right.
I know what terrible things they say
about me behind my back.
I'm useless because
I don't have supernatural abilities.
Ms. Miyo
That must mean I'm not wanted here
just like Mother's cherry tree.
A dream.
Oh yes, I don't live
in that house anymore.
I have to make myself useful
in this house.
Oh my, something smells good.
It looks good.
Ms. Miyo.
Ms. Yurie, good morning.
Good morning, Ms. Miyo.
You just got here, and you're already
making a meal this early in the morning?
Um, I'm sorry I didn't ask for permission.
Please don't mention it!
You are Young Master's fiancée.
It looks delicious!
I'm sure Young Master will appreciate it.
Preparing meals is my job,
but as you can see
I'm getting to be an old wrinkled grandma.
I'm really grateful
that you are helping me.
I-I'm glad to.
Well, since there's still time
before Young Master wakes up,
I should go do other things now.
Ms. Miyo, can I leave breakfast up to you?
Yes, if it's all right with you.
Good morning, Young Master.
Good morning.
Yurie, stop calling me Young Master
in front of others.
Good morning, sir.
Young Master, Ms. Miyo prepared
breakfast this morning.
- She did?
- Oh, yes.
She was very skilled.
It was helpful for me.
Sit over here.
Y-Yes.
You try it first.
Pardon?
You can't eat it?
Uh Well
Did you put poison in it?
How transparent.
Poison?
I can't eat this because
I don't know what's inside it.
Put it away.
Try harder next time.
Wait, Young Master?
Young Master!
Although my intentions were good,
it turned out to be a massive failure.
SPECIAL ANTI-GROTESQUERIE UNI
I welcome you
to the Special Anti-Grotesquerie Unit.
Through rigorous discipline, I expect you
to heighten your supernatural abilities.
Supernatural abilities are a potential
that lies in your spirit.
Telekinesis, pyrokinesis, clairvoyance.
Supernatural abilities do not go against
the rules of nature of this world.
They are the embodiment
of the power of the spirit.
And Grotesqueries have been living
in this nation from ancient times.
Often called demons or spirits,
they are harmful to humans.
The one and only power to fight them off
is your supernatural ability.
So where are these Grotesqueries?
Why train if we're never called to fight?
That is why we need to prepare for them
so whenever they show up Huh?
- Whoa!
- Uh.
- Oh.
- Ahh
With the passage of time, the number
of Grotesqueries have diminished.
So now, we are rarely mobilized
to eradicate them.
That's why serious damage and confusion
are assumed to occur from such incidents.
I expect you to be ready to take the lead
and fight the Grotesqueries
when the time comes.
- Yes, sir!
- Yes, sir!
Come in.
Commander, I've brought
the papers you asked for.
I noticed you were exceptionally fired up
for that newcomer training.
Oh? Not in a good mood today?
Can you hear me? Hello?
Commander Kudo?
Hmm? Could it be
that another fiancée has fled your house
Stop yapping and get out of here already.
I nailed it, didn't I?
Do you want to be burned?
Oops. You seem especially irritable today.
Well then. If you would excuse me.
Young Master, are you listening?
Yeah, I hear you.
You really shouldn't have
treated her in that way.
Ms. Miyo made a serious effort
to prepare a meal for you.
I can't imagine her
putting poison in your food.
It's rare for Yurie to defend someone
to that extent.
I can't believe I'm thinking about this.
I must concentrate more on my work.
I can't believe I made such a blunder
so soon after moving in.
If the rumors about my husband-to-be
are true, maybe I can't stay here anymore.
Your room is ready, Koji.
From today, use it as you like.
Thank you very much.
You need to start preparing
to enter this family.
The days ahead might get busy.
I expect your best efforts.
Y-Yes.
Where should we move this?
Move it into my sister's room, please.
Good evening, Kaya.
Oh, it's you, Koji.
I can move that for you, if you'd like.
It must be heavy.
You're kind to other servants too,
not just Big Sister. It's so like you.
Miyo lived in a room like this?
If Miyo is thrown out of the Kudo family
with nowhere to go,
I want to be the one
who she feels safe with.
Hey, Koji!
Can I ask you to move this too?
Yeah, I'll be right there.
There must be something only I can do.
Welcome home, sir.
I
What is it?
I want to apologize for this morning.
I overstepped my position.
A man of your status couldn't possibly eat
something prepared by one you don't trust.
I should have known better.
Everything for supper tonight
was prepared by Ms. Yurie.
On my word, I put no poison in it.
Please
It wasn't that I seriously suspected you.
I just didn't feel like eating food
prepared by a stranger.
I'm truly sorry.
It's cold.
I'm sorry.
You don't have to apologize for that.
It seems you keep apologizing
as if it's natural to do so. Why?
- You're not answering me, are you?
- I'm sorry
Don't apologize.
If you apologize too much,
it loses its meaning.
Did you eat yet?
Uh, well I
Why didn't you make a meal for yourself?
Yurie went home already, right?
Yes.
Didn't Yurie make a meal for you too?
That's not it.
I didn't have an appetite,
so I told her that I didn't need anything.
Are you not feeling well?
Don't mind me. It's nothing.
All right. As you wish.
I'm done.
Um, then I'll get the bath ready
I'll do it myself.
But
I always do it myself.
Instead of making a fire
to heat up the water,
it's easier if I use
my supernatural ability to get hot water.
Don't try to do unnecessary things.
Since I don't have supernatural abilities,
I can't even draw a bath in this house.
I am not useful for anything.
Do you have a minute?
Y-Yes.
Sorry for not eating your breakfast today.
Yurie said she'll be
a little late tomorrow morning.
You're in charge of breakfast tomorrow.
Oh, me?
If you really attempt to put poison in it,
you're done.
Of course, I won't!
No problem, then.
No problem, sir.
The bath is still hot.
You should go in before it gets cold.
Uh, um
Thank you very much.
I couldn't properly thank him.
I'm aware of the bad rumors
about Young Master,
but actually, he is a kind man.
He gave me a chance
to make up for my failure.
I really can't mess it up tomorrow.
Hana!
Hana!
Ms. Miyo, what's the matter?
They're gone! Heirlooms from Mother,
her cherry blossom kimono All gone!
What? Why in the world?
It must be Stepmom Kanoko.
I'll go and get them back.
But if you confront her alone,
there's no telling what she'll do.
It'll be all right.
I'll tell Father if anything happens.
You sure are the daughter
of that conniving thief.
Accusing me of stealing?
Your attitude is unbelievably rotten.
What rubbish.
You still had this, huh?
No, don't!
That's Mother's
Think about what you did.
Don't show your face until you're sorry.
Close the door.
Let me out! Somebody! Father!
Father!
Mrs. Saimori, Mr. Saimori, please don't!
Silence!
Who do you think you are? Servant!
But it's cruel to Ms. Miyo
Hana
You know what happens when
you challenge me, don't you?
Let me out
Somebody, help me
Again. A bad dream.
I wonder what Hana is doing now?
After she was fired because of that day,
I never met her even once.
I hope she is happy and doing well.
This is also nearing the end of its life.
Oh, Ms. Miyo. Good morning.
Ms. Yurie?
I see you're up pretty early today, too.
Yes. Um, weren't you
going to be late today?
Well, I came early today because I was
concerned about what happened yesterday.
I'll take care of breakfast,
so why don't you relax in the living room?
Well, actually
Oh my, is that what Young Master said?
If he wanted to eat your cooking,
he should have said so.
Well, I don't think
that's what this is about
But I'm just not so sure of myself.
Then Ms. Miyo,
why don't you let me help you?
Oh, please do.
I wonder if this is the right flavor
- That's beautiful.
- I make it all the time.
So I'm used to making it fast.
But, there's no guarantee of the taste.
It looks delicious.
As a servant, it's an honor to hear
a compliment from a good cook like you.
Will he really eat this meal
prepared by someone like me?
This is my last chance.
Now, Young Master should be
getting up soon.
Would you please bring the breakfast
to the other room?
Certainly.
Good morning.
Good morning, sir.
Well, let's eat.
You should eat too.
I-I'm sor
I mean
I will eat too.
It's good.
It tastes a little different from
how Yurie makes it, but not bad.
Oh, thank you very much.
Why are you crying?
I-I'm sorry
I told you not to apologize.
Yes, sir.
When was the last time I was praised,
or accepted by someone like this?
Her background is a mystery.
She wears such rags
that can't even be called old clothes.
Her body is so thin
that she must have had a troubled life.
Her hands look so worn from housework.
Is she really from a prominent family?
Yurie.
Maybe she wasn't raised as a typical
daughter from a prominent family.
I know what you mean. Yes.
Do you think she would tell us
if we asked her?
That might be difficult.
You should discreetly keep an eye on her.
I'll do what I can
to look into the Saimori family.
Very well.
How unusual, Young Master.
You seem to be interested in this fiancée.
Interested?
You know, Ms. Miyo might not like you
if you can't express your true feelings.
She can dislike me all she wants.
Most of the women who came here were
after wealth or status from the start.
I think Ms. Miyo will be
a fine wife for you, Young Master.
Why do you seem so sure?
Anyway, I'm counting on you.
Leave it up to me.
The Saimori family
There aren't a lot of bloodlines
with supernatural abilities.
I hope there won't be
bad news that comes out.
Hey! What are you doing
breaking your promise?
Don't you understand
the value that girl has?
What are you talking about?
Miyo is none of your business.
Stop messing around!
You made a firm promise that Miyo,
who has the blood of the Usuba family,
will be given to the Tatsuishi family!
