My Dress-Up Darling (2022) s01e11 Episode Script

1
Seriously
I'm melting!
Mind if we rest for a while, Gojo?
Sure.
Welcome.
I've never been
to a comic book cafe before.
Really?
This place is a top-tier one.
The air-conditioning is a real breeze
and they have tons of comic books!
Plus, you can buy some food
and drinks as well!
Can't get any better than this, right?
Yes.
But
This is too close.
And I can stretch my legs, too!
It's amazing!
Gosh.
Nothing beats a flat sheet
for your cushion!
Oh, we've got a menu here.
Where is my potato?
This is really too close.
Why is this room so cramped?
Is it normal for a comic book cafe
to look like this?
Yes. Is something boggling your mind?
Well
Is there anything you want to eat?
MEGA LARGE
Oh, god! What a page she's looking at!
Anyway, I brought this on the way here,
and it's definitely one of
my recommended books, so try reading it!
I, a Very Popular High
School Light Novel Author,
Am Being Bothered
Every Night by a Succubus!
Was that the whole title?
You bet! Boccubus for short!
A slice-of-life, four-panel comic!
Slice-of-life?
Well, like, nothing happens in particular,
but that's where the fun is?
Like a peaceful daily life, you know?
So we're supposed to enjoy the peaceful
daily life the characters live?
Yes, that's right!
Slice-of-life stuff is really soothing,
so I always read it before bed.
This particular title
has the protagonist, Kaname,
write light novels all night long,
so he rarely sleeps at night,
and the succubus,
Cutie Rizu, does her best
in trying to put him to sleep at night.
Boy, am I a sucker for half-pigtails!
Like, my brain automatically
records it as "something cute."
Half-pigtails?
JuJu's hair is also cute, right?
I'd love to do Rizu's pose myself.
She's just too cute!
So lovely!
Her skin is so exposed, huh?
I'll take that into consideration
when choosing my next character.
Well, compared to Prisoner Veronica
Though, I won't actually do her cosplay.
What? Why?
Are you concerned with skin exposure?
The skin? I don't mind that.
No?
I mean, I love Cutie Rizu,
especially with her half-pigtails.
But it just doesn't look right
on me, or something.
She's more suited to someone cute,
so I'm kind of
out of the league, you know?
Now that's a serious look on your face.
Is there something on my face?
Well
I think you would look good in it.
Still a no?
What?
You didn't cosplay as Shion
not because of her petite appearance,
but because of her hair, right?
Yes.
Then why don't we do it?
I mean, you love Cutie Rizu, right?
This will be great, I think.
If you say so, Gojo.
I guess we should do just that.
Okay.
She looked great in Shizuku
and Black Lobelia's costumes,
so I don't think
she needs to worry about it.
By the way, what's a succubus?
I've never heard of it.
-Oh, to put it simply, it's a girl demon.
-And?
She shows lewd dreams to men
and sucks their semen before killing them.
You call that "peaceful," miss?
Yes, Gojo?
So this series has gore in it?
Not even a bit!
It's a super peaceful story.
You'll know when you read it.
A murdering demon and peace
I can't connect the dots at all.
"Lullaby."
Hey! Just go to bed already!
It's already three in the morning!
Oh, right! I'll just sing you
a lullaby to make you sleepy!
Sleep
Have a good dream
CLACK
"Chocolate."
Even if you sleep
in school during the day,
being a night owl is bad for your body!
It messes up the autonomic nervous system!
Damn. Talk about a decent argument.
Hey, Succubus.
I'll give you some snacks, so pipe down.
Oh, my! Are you sure? Thanks!
There's milk in it, too! Delicious!
I've got to share this with everyone!
Oh, my. This is so soothing.
She speaks like a boy.
A mega cute archetype, right?
I'll get some more books.
Okay.
Slice-of-life, huh?
Nice.
What?
Hang on.
This series has a deformed art style,
so I can't tell
how the costume actually looks.
There were some parts
I couldn't make out before,
but this one's different!
Her back is completely covered too!
How could I tell what's behind her hair?
I see.
I can't expect to know every detail
of the outfit from every series.
I need to think about it
by myself.
Oh, shoot! It's already this late!
We've lazed about
to our hearts' content, huh?
Yes, we did. And it was fun.
That's it, then!
Kitagawa
Yes?
Do you mind if we visit the book store?
I could use a copy of Boccubus, too.
You're into it already? You rock!
Where was the book store again?
There's a clothing store here?
Oh, you bought that?
That looks cool and cozy.
Nice jinbei.
Yes!
I bought two!
That fits you like a glove!
Grandpa
I'm
now
in a love hotel.
"Last night."
I bought a swimsuit that looks
like Cutie Rizu's! It's super cute!
I've finished my work, too.
Really?
Anyway, let's do the photo shoot
for Cutie Rizu in a studio.
The nasty posters in my room won't cut it.
Wait, I've found a studio
that looks like Kaname's room!
And it's close to your house too!
Oh, it's only 5,900 yen! Super cheap!
There's actually a photo studio
near my house, huh?
Swooped a slot just now!
Meet up at the station tomorrow?
Okay.
There's a photo studio here?
Looks like it.
We have to pay in advance,
so I'll do it first.
It's Room 303.
What?
Room 303?
Here it is.
Oh, my gosh!
The bed is so huge! Awesome!
Isn't it larger than a double bed?
A popular light novel author
must have a bed this large, right?
It's so big and simple,
just suits the vibe of Kaname's room!
A vibrator right at the bedside?
We really are in a love hotel, huh?
It is what it is, I guess.
What's wrong, Gojo?
Did you just say "love hotel"?
Yes, you heard me!
I didn't know!
Why are we in a love hotel
and not in a studio?
You know, last night,
I found a big bed
just like in Kaname's room.
And they said it's okay to do
a photo shoot here, so this got to be it!
But right when I swooped a slot,
it turned out to be a love hotel!
I just realized it after seeing
the front entrance!
I messed up. It's sad.
I've got to read
the description properly next time!
She has that quality about her!
But it's a nice room considering, right?
It feels so spacious,
just like Kaname's room.
I
I just have to think that it's
Not a studio, damn it!
I can't do something
so convenient like that!
This whole room has the adult atmosphere
that the abandoned hospital studio
didn't have.
I can't! My eyes are spinning like crazy!
All I can think of
when I'm alone with Kitagawa
in a love hotel
Anyway,
I guess I'm getting curious
about love hotels too.
I mean, those cosplayers having
a girls' party at a love hotel looks fun.
Girls' party at a love hotel?
Yes. Like this.
There's a plan for everyone
to cosplay and stay in the hotel.
You're right.
They look like they're having fun.
Right?
Is that all bread underneath?
Yes. Isn't there some here as well?
Didn't you like sweet stuff?
I would grab some sweets
sometimes when working these days.
Chocolate is good
for when you're using your brain.
Kaname also used to eat some.
Oh, so that's why
he picked chocolates as snacks.
I guess I should order some.
Sorry for the trouble.
Wait, I'm not!
Now that's an exquisite retort.
Even if you messed up,
this is no place for students.
Well, I'm sure this is no place
for normal people.
We are, though!
My bad! I guess it's just too much, huh?
All right.
-I'll go and get changed.
-But why?
I mean, we're here to do some cosplaying,
so won't actually doing nothing
be bad for the money?
That's
The bathroom is awesome!
It's so luxurious!
We can do jacuzzi and bubble bath here!
Want to take a bath with me?
Just kidding!
Make yourself at home back there!
My goodness.
I cannot make myself at home!
Sure, we can't just put
6,000 yen to waste.
But still
Kitagawa
How can she
In this situation
I guess I'll just watch some TV.
It might take my mind off things a little.
This is a love hotel.
No way
I can't watch more!
-Gojo!
-I'm sorry!
What the heck?
It's so cute, I can't stop smiling!
I've seen the drawing,
but nothing beats the real deal!
Really?
It's so brilliant!
You're really a genius, to put it mildly!
These pearl buttons are super cute, too!
The back of the collar is heart-shaped,
it's so awfully cute!
It's just too good, I'm starving for more!
I've matched the collar
with the shape of the tail,
and used chemical
and cotton laces to make it.
So that's what they're called!
Also,
I've done my research on succubi.
If I'm going to make the costume, I need
to embrace the world of succubi wholly.
So diligent!
Succubi seduce men,
so they're often depicted in sexy outfits,
but Boccubus doesn't emphasize those,
so I made the costume into something cute.
I get you!
THERE'S NO WAY THE PILLOW
FOOLISH HUMAN USES WILL WORK
-But
-What?
As the anatomy changes,
if there were a Cutie Rizu in real life,
I thought the deformed parts
would look like this.
So I added a lot of things to make it.
It's all down from my imagination.
So if someone were to
compare it to Kani Miso's art,
I don't think it would match.
I think that's fine, though.
What?
Like, sometimes the outfit in the comic
and anime adaptation may look different.
-Really?
-Yes.
But it's not like you can't do cosplay
based on the anime version.
People who make their own costumes
put a lot of thought into them, and
make them with their own interpretations
when they don't know what to make of.
In fact, that's the best thing about it.
Isn't being unrestricted to anything
what makes cosplaying fun?
So we can just say that it's your own
version of the costume, Gojo.
I mean, your costume is just too good,
I bet it's accurate enough!
Your costume is the best!
Thank you
On a different note,
if you put a condom in your wallet,
is it true that you'll get
lots of cash later?
What's with that urban legend?
I saw it on TV before!
Cosplaying costs a lot of money,
so you could use some financial charm.
There it is!
Here's your share.
I have to do it too?
Well, obviously!
What?
Are you sure it's not weird?
The half-pigtails.
Not at all.
It's just like Cutie Rizu
popped out of the comic book!
Really?
This is so embarrassing.
Oh, my!
It definitely looks pretty!
What?
Your wig has a tame color,
but it looks so fresh.
Oh, you mean that? I know that.
What? Oh, sorry?
Anyway
With these wings, I really feel like
a 2D character walking around already!
So unreal!
Well, I actually have some scenes
from the comic I want to reenact.
Really? Which one?
I've marked them up.
Isn't that like almost the whole book?
I've brought some items too!
Amazing! We can snap
some good photos with these!
HYPNOSIS FOR BEGINNERS
You're going to get sleepier!
I wanted to snap that one!
Getting desperate here, huh?
I can do it
as many times as you like, you know!
Yes! Very nice!
Even though you're wearing an eye mask,
you still got the Cutie Rizu vibe!
Next is the chocolate-eating scene.
Okay.
Oh, my! Can I eat another bite?
-Kitagawa
-And another bite!
Hey, Kitagawa.
We've got enough photos
for the chocolate thing!
We've snapped quite some photos, huh?
Yes!
The last one will be
the lullaby singing one.
There it is!
We really need to do that one!
Let's snap them now!
All right! Let's do that!
Well
Was it weird?
It's just lacking something.
Maybe you should stare
at the camera this time.
So we're shooting from Kaname's POV now?
That's it!
Kitagawa, hop on me!
Let's shoot from Kaname's perspective!
On you? Won't it be too hard on you?
We can just snap
some quick photos, that's fine.
Okay.
Tell me if it's too heavy for you.
Okay.
I'm putting my hips down now, okay?
Go ahead.
Here goes.
It's perfectly okay!
I'm snapping the photos now!
Please do!
CLICK
Oh, my god!
-It's super cool!
-Right!
Best thing ever!
A change in angle
makes all the difference!
It's
so fun.
The preparation, the photo shooting
with this costume, and viewing the photos.
Every single one of them is so fun!
Everything about cosplay is just too fun!
I'm having a blast now!
Yes! I'm having fun too!
I think I heard a voice from next door.
That's right!
We're in a love hotel now!
I
I got carried away in the photo shoot,
and told her to hop on me.
Kitagawa, get off me now!
Yes, this is Gojo Dolls
Wait, no!
Oh, okay.
Sorry, but we're not extending.
Oh, that's okay.
Okay. Excuse me.
Looks like our time is up!
Oh, okay.
Well, I guess so.
I'll go and get changed.
That was close!
What?
I'm sorry.
Oh, are they high school students?
What a cute pair.
I guess they're climbing a step
into adulthood this summer.
Well, they are at the age where
their curiosity leads them, after all.
GOJO DOLLS
Kitagawa!
