Shioriko Ep. 21: An Attentive Gaze
Satsuki and Uzuki debate the pros and cons of the Shioriko fan club. Meanwhile, Shioriko is stuck in the middle.
Uzuki
You're so narrow-minded, Satsuki. Wouldn't you like to see our president spread her wings a little more?
Satsuki
Of course! I want that for her, but as a fan, it's only natural to feel a little sad about it!
Player
Maybe we should stop them already?
Shioriko
Y-Yes. Leave it to me, I'll—
Shioriko
H-Hello. Come in, please.
Student
My apologies. You see…
[Fade in/out.]
Student
Thank you very much, President.
Shioriko
My pleasure. Please feel free to stop by whenever there's a problem.
Student
I will!
Player
…Does that kind of thing happen a lot?
Shioriko
Hm? What kind of thing?
Player
I mean, giving people advice, like you did just now.
Uzuki
Lots of people have come to our president for advice lately. Right, Satsuki?
Satsuki
Yeah. In fact, I just remembered something. One of the girls on the library committee said she had something she wanted to ask you about.
Shioriko
Oh, you mean the girl who said she wanted to get librarian and teaching qualifications?
Satsuki
Yes, her!
Player
You're amazing, Shioriko! You're giving life advice to so many people!
Shioriko
Oh, it's really not that big of a deal.
Uzuki
I think you're really giving them good life advice. You even helped out the president of the Cinema Studies Club.
Satsuki
Yeah! She said she wanted to become a screenwriter, but her Japanese test scores weren't the best…
Player
What advice did she give her?
Uzuki
Our president asked her what she thought about becoming a director, since the girl's entry into the school film festival showed she had a great vision.
Satsuki
And she told someone that couldn't win any debates in Debate Club that since they were so good at analyzing things, maybe they could do something that takes advantage of that.
Player
How did you know what they were good at?
Shioriko
Anyone can tell if they just pay attention to what people are doing.
Option 1: “That's not so easy to do.” |

Player Huh?! But paying attention to what people are up to isn't so easy to do, is it? Shioriko Hmm… I'm always keeping tabs on people, so I suppose that explains why. |
Option 2: “Only you could do that, Shioriko!” |
Player I think only you could do that, Shioriko! Shioriko Not at all. I'm sure if you were in my position, you would do the same thing. |
Shioriko
Anyway, let's all go home for today. It's almost time for the school to close.
