Episode 7 "The Trap of Only Seeing Results"

If she's so unlucky, there must be a fundamental issue.

Please tell me!

I brought money.

Your fortunes are worth this much.

No, please!

Paying me won't make a difference.

I just see strange things sometimes.

It's not a useful ability.

Don't be so modest!

You saved me.

Have more self-confidence! You can see the future!

What? Why are you cheering me up?

Find your confidence and look into my future!

Why can't you direct that confidence towards yourself?

Listen, even if I see something, it's not necessarily right.

I wouldn't want to exacerbate your anxieties.

But it'll be too late once the misfortune has occurred, don't you think?!

In any case, please tell me what you see right now!

I see your pores.

You should start by changing your foundation.

I saw you holding a m-maneki-neko.

A maneki-neko?

Should I buy one?!

I-I don't know.

But I wouldn't want you to buy anything based on my nonsense,

and we have plenty of maneki-nekos, so you're welcome to take one.

Really?!

You're such a good person, Kyoko-san!

You're so youthful and cheerful! I respect you so much!

Thank you for your help!

I've got a bad feeling about this.

I'm home.

That said, the children live in dorms,

and my husband will probably go drinking before coming home.

But I can't complain.

I have a nice life.

I'm back, Ricky.

Look. It's a maneki-neko.

Ricky, what do you have in your mouth?

Something broke again.

Oh, it's a handle.

Ricky, don't touch that. It's dangerous.

Did you break this?

But Ricky avoids objects when he walks.

My head hurts.

Perhaps I'll take the rest of the day off.

But my husband will scold me for being lazy again.

Throb

Kyoko-san...

I must tell Kyoko-san...

Ow!

I'm so unlucky.

I-I need to talk to Kyoko-san again.

Lock the door.

Hurry...

Ow!

Yeaaargh

My hair!

Disaster after disaster!

Help me, Kyoko-san!

Why does this keep happening to me?!

Look, everyone!

I made a tuna helmet!

Who's staying for dinner?

Me!

What? I want dinner!

Bold of you to stay for dinner on your first visit.

Why not?

Saving a turtle earned Urashima Taro dinner at the dragon king's palace.

Coming! I'm coming!

Kyoko-san!

Kyoko-san! Kyoko-san!

It didn't work! It didn't work again!

Why? I took home a maneki-neko according to your prediction!

What am I doing wrong? It keeps happening!

Even when I do as you predict, it never works!

Wait! What happened, Sakurako-san?

Besides, I didn't make predictions.

I never even told you to do as I said!

But...

Please calm down.

What happened?

Oh, I... I'm sorry.

What's wrong?

I know.

I know that I simply admire Kyoko-san.

Obstetrics and Gynecology

They're such a magnificent couple despite their young age.

They seem close, too.

Hello, honey?

I'm ready to go. Will you be here soon?

Can't you get home by yourself?

That culture school is a waste of money.

You're terrible at everything you do.

The kids are your responsibility.

Math Test Kobayashi Sakurako

I'm glad your brother's feeling well today.

Um, Mom, I aced my test.

Good for you. We'll talk later, okay?

Could you bring me your brother's medicine?

Saku-chan, you're so patient.

I would've given that senior a piece of my mind.

They're abusing their power.

Sakurako needs to learn to speak up.

Why did she turn out that way?

It's annoying how dumb you are.

You may be useless, but at least make something better than pig slop.

I know.

I know I can't live a life like theirs.

But somebody...

please tell me my life is okay.

But somebody please tell me my life is okay

Hey, you!

If you believe in fortunes, do you believe in exorcisms, too?

Rustle

What?

There are things my mom can't see.

In other words, unless you address the cause, you'll always get the same result!

There's no such thing as omnipotent eyes that can see everything!

Are you sure you're not the one refusing to see what's around you?

That's why spirits keep taking advantage of you!

What's he talking about?

Well, actually...

She's possessed by a ton of nasty spirits.

Ha ha ha

Didn't I tell you?

Spirits don't typically enter this house.

But these guys barged right into a bakeneko house.

They're the kind of people who entered haunted places to kick graves in life.

I don't want anything to do with 'em.

Anyway, I probably shouldn't laugh,

but the cause of her headaches is incredibly dumb.

Otter (Deceased)

Mammal of the Mustelidae family and Enhydra genus. Breaks hard shells by hitting them with enough force to break tempered glass.

I wasn't sure if I should say something.

This lady's reactions are so funny.

Let's egg her on more.

We can use this house's huge cats.

Since the red panda we caught the other day got away...

After the maneki-neko, let's knock over the altar.

What's more ominous than that?

You're turning yourself into a plaything for lowbrow spirits.

Don't let those idiots take advantage of you!

And stop treating people like they're all-powerful!

This is my specialty,

so I'll exorcise the misfortune clinging to you!

But I'm not doing this for you!

I just hate how you're ruining my safe space!

Nabeshima, these guys barged into your territory!

Eat them!

N-No, wait!

That looks really bad!

Nabeshima's feeling motivated today, huh?

He can be so crabby.

He sulked when he wasn't the center of attention at the 100-yen shop.

What? I can't see him, but he sounds cute.

Exorcise?

Animals are so quick to flee!

I feel like my headache is gone.

Your son possesses supernatural powers, too.

He's also a very good son.

I'm so pathetic.

Kyoko-san, I envy you.

You finally said what you really feel.

What?

I heard what you said earlier.

You're too accepting and too reliant on others, but you're a good person.

You were listening? Why?

Also, who are you?

But being too good a person isn't a good thing either.

Your misfortune's been exorcised, but you're not in the clear.

Unless you change, those nasty creeps will come right back.

Both the living and the dead.

You gotta learn to complain and get mad.

But my husband doesn't like that.

Besides, I'm not in a position to complain.

Yeah, that's what everyone says.

I've seen plenty of men and women like you.

You've turned into Pavlov's dog.

I guess these days they call it psychological abuse and brainwashing.

Does this ring a bell?

Circumstances vary, but verbally abusive and domineering husbands

and super-hysterical wives are textbook examples.

And they're generally with very patient partners.

Also, forgive me if I'm wrong, but going back a bit...

Were you raised to be especially patient with your mother or father?

Ma'am, don't put your trust in the wrong things.
