Save the Ramen of Joy! Ep. 7
Honoka, Rin, Ayumu, Rina, Kanan, Dia
Thank you, come again!
Dia
We're performing our cooking and customer service tasks far more smoothly than before.
Rina
Yeah…
Ayumu
Rina, what's the matter?
Rina
Oh, it's just… I found a post from a regular here on the internet. Apparently, they came by while we were working the other day.
Rina
It said that they thought the food tasted kinda different. Oh, but they said it tasted fine anyway.
Kanan
I guess the flavor really does change depending on who's making it. Maybe there are more secret ingredients, just like with Rin's ramen.
Rin
Were there any other people who thought the food was off? Oh no… What if the restaurant's reputation went down because of us?
Honoka
Guys, listen up! I just got a call from the owner. He said he's feeling better, so he's gonna stop by!
Dia
Is that true? Then that solves our flavor problem. This way, we will be able to provide our customers with the taste they came for.
Rin
I'm so happy that the owner is feeling better!
Honoka
All right, let's keep at it 'til he gets here!
Rin, Ayumu, Rina, Kanan, Dia
Yeah!
[Fade in/out.]
Honoka
And we're closed! Another good day of work!
Rina
Everything was much easier once the owner came by. It was really reassuring too!
Dia
Excuse me, may we have a moment?
Honoka
Hm? What's up?
Kanan
Well, it's just… We'll be able to come tomorrow, but we're not sure about the days after that. We don't have a lot of leeway in our schedules, so…
Dia
I do apologize, especially given that we were the ones who offered our assistance.
Rin
Don't feel bad! You two helped us out plenty! You guys live super far away and you still showed up today. We don't want you to push yourselves if it's too much.
Rina
But it'll be difficult to run the restaurant if we're down two people.
Ayumu
I don't think we have to worry about that.
Ayumu
The owner told me that the employees who had been taking time off will be coming back tomorrow, and since the owner is feeling better too, they'll be opening as usual again!
Rin
We did it… WE DID IT!
Rin
Both the owner AND the employees are coming back! This isn't a dream, is it? The restaurant made a full recovery!
Rin
I get to come back here again! I get to eat their ramen again! We did it!
Honoka
I'm so happy for you! 'Cause it looks like you made a full recovery too!
Kanan
I think we can close the book on this one then. Oh, but what about tomorrow? If we're not helping out here, we've got the whole day free.
Honoka
Then why don't we all come back here and have ramen? It'll be like a great big welcome back celebration!
Ayumu
I like that idea. We have to celebrate Rin's recovery, too!
Kanan
It's not every day that I get to eat ramen so special. I'm looking forward to it!
Dia
Though we initially came as helpers, from here on out we will be customers. What a strange feeling.
Rina
But I bet the food will taste even better than usual. Rina-chan Board says, “Woo-hoo!”
Rin
Everyone, thank you so, so much! Tomorrow's ramen is going to be the best!
Honoka, Ayumu, Rina, Kanan, Dia
(Honoka, Ayumu, Rina, Kanan) Yeah! (Dia) Yes!
