Kasumi Ep. 18: It's Not Worth Mentioning, Really!

Kasumi's fan club isn't getting as many new members compared to the other fan clubs. She says she isn't bothered by it, but…

Kasumi

Mirror, mirror, on the wall. Who's the cutest one of all?

Kasumi

It's Kasumin, obviously! You woke up early to blow out your hair, buffed your nails to perfection, and your shirt smells great because of the fabric softener you used! You're the cutest!

Kasumi

I wish… *Sigh*

Kasumi

It's weird, my fan club is the only one not getting any new members. Is someone conspiring against me? If not, what else could it be?

Kasumi

Could it be… I'm actually…not cute?

Kasumi

No, no, no. That's not true. I need to be adorable, and my cuteness knows no bounds!

Player

Uh, are you okay, Kasumi?

Kasumi

H-Hey! H-How long have you been standing there?!

Player

Um, well…

Player

That's not important! I wanted to say that I think you're really cute, Kasumi!

Player

Your smile is the cutest! You're always so cheerful, and bring smiles to everyone's faces when you're around. And you're such a hard worker no matter what happens…

Player

I could never run out of compliments for you. You're a lovely person with so many adorable qualities!

Kasumi

I-I… I know that already. I'm the cutest in the world, obviously!

Player

…

Kasumi

Were you listening just now when I was talking to myself?

Option 1: “I was listening.”

Player

Yes, I heard you… I'm sorry if I was eavesdropping.

Kasumi

Urk… Y-You don't have to apologize!

Option 2: “I wasn't listening.”

Player

N-No! I wasn't listening!

Kasumi

You're so bad at lying! It's written all over your face. You were totally listening!

Kasumi

Anyway, who cares if you were listening? I was actually lying.

Player

Huh? You were lying?

Kasumi

I was just pretending to be down. I was experimenting with showing a weaker side in my performance!

Kasumi

I thought some variation to how I present myself might make me even cuter.

Kasumi

Your reaction, though… Heh heh, it was exactly as I planned!

Kasumi

You were completely charmed by my listless mood. *Giggle*

Kasumi

Do you get it now?

Player

Huh?

Kasumi

I was totally, completely pretending just now! My cuteness is absolutely unshakable!

Player

Okay, I understand. It's getting late, so why don't we go home together? We can get ice cream by the station. My treat.

Kasumi

Ice cream?! Yay! Let's go, let's go!

Player

Sure!

Player

Listen, Kasumi. You really are adorable. I mean it.

Kasumi

Ugh, you don't have to keep stating the obvious, Prez!

Kasumi

But… *Giggle* Thank you.
