That was a great serve, Yuki!
Way to go!
I appreciate the compliments.
Man, Yuki always looks good
no matter what she's doing.
I still can't believe
we're in the same grade.
Look at that!
She just served another ace!
[ALL] She's so cool!
[HITOYOSHI]
She's more than that.
They've never even seen
Ms. Yuki when she gets serious.
So, she's beautiful,
super smart, and athletic.
[MALE STUDENT 6B] I don't get
how she could be related
to Hitoyoshi at all!
[HITOYOSHI] Well, I guess
they do have a point.
Ms.Yuki risked
her life for me.
That night practically
felt like a movie.
I'm still feeling the high
from that experience.
She was a ruthless murderer.
A beast among beasts.
Fourth of the Dragon's Nine,
Xue the White Wolf!
I won't kill anyone anymore.
And what's more,
I won't let anyone die
because of me.
I have so many
unanswered questions.
But those might have to wait
since Ms. Yuki is trying
to be normal.
[ALL]
What?!
STARE STARE STARE
[HITOYOSHI]
She is doing everything
she can out there!
I will not let their jealousy
and envy get to me!
I got this!
Yo, heads up!
[shudder]
[GRACE]
Dang, that was a close one.
Wouldn't want you to get hurt,
or else someone would get mad!
You know
who I'm talking about.
[HITOYOSHI] I keep getting
death glares from everyone
and it isn't just because
of Ms. Yuki at this point.
I don't get
what this lady's up to,
but it's her fault too.
♪
So, Ms. Nitta,
how can I help you?
Aw, don't be like that!
Would it kill you to be
nice to me?
I'm just a helpless
little teacher here.
Hitoyoshi?
You're too close!
Haven't you ever heard
of a little something
called personal space?
JEALOUSY JEALOUSY JEALOUSY
[HITOYOSHI]
Why me?
How did things end up
so unbelievably complicated?
♪
-It's me!
-It's who?
Oh, come on,
how could you possibly
forget little ol' Gracey.
Especially after the two of us
shared that one night
of fiery passion!
But my cover story here
is that
I'm Ms. Nitta,
the new gym teacher,
who's also a relative
that you see like
a big sister and happens
to live in Tokyo.
Nyao!
The way you look and talk
is completely different!
Also that
was a huge info dump!
If combat is considered
Xue's specialty,
mine's espionage.
Not to brag but I'm kinda
what you'd call
a master of disguise.
How I am
now's the real me though.
Don't tell me.
I bet you preferred it
when I had long,
dark hair like "Ms. Yuki".
What?
I dunno about that.
[laugh]
Yeah right, I didn't believe
that for a second!
But at least you're funny.
I thought you'd had
enough before,
but it seems you still
have business with me.
Yeah, not really.
Forget the business,
I just love having fun.
Who woulda thought,
the great Xue,
legendary assassin.
Would be serving under some
sniveling civilian brat
and given up her
murderous ways!
Even if I fled
to the tropics like I wanted,
I'd never find
anything this amusing!
Don't worry though,
I've got no intention
of killing you
and I don't plan on getting
killed myself either.
So, I have zero hostility.
Of course,
I'm not asking for you
to trust me for nothing
in return.
-Let's negotiate.
-[gasps]
[HITOYOSHI] A negotiation
between assassins.
[GRACE] First of all,
I'll no longer make
any move on you or Hitoyoshi
with killing intent.
Furthermore.
[HITOYOSHI]
Okay, here it comes.
She about to offer
some fat stacks
or top-secret info?
For three whole months.
I'll get you bread
from the school store!
[HITOYOSHI] Wait, bread?
But that's so ordinary.
No, it's gotta be some
kind of secret assassin code!
[GRACE] Of course,
I'm not talking about
just any bread.
I got the good stuff.
Katsuda Bread! Yup!
All the Katsuda Bread
you can eat! Well?
[YUKI] I'm in.
[HITOYOSHI] She's in?
[GRACE] All righty then,
we have a deal!
[HITOYOSHI]
Ms. Yuki!
Are you sure
you wanna go through with this?
[YUKI] I'm confident
there's no need to worry.
It's strictly prohibited
for us to kill
an ordinary person
without cause
and now that she understands
she is no match for me,
she has nothing to gain
from harming you,
Master Hitoyoshi.
However, even
if something like that
were to happen,
I swear that
I will protect you.
Promise!
You're still drooling.
[YUKI] And besides,
I'm capable of handling
second-rate killers like her
by the thousands.
-There's no need for concern.
-[HITOYOSHI] Really?
[GRACE] Oh dang.
I got demoted to trash tier.
Great.
I'm glad that's settled.
I'll keep on observing
you two quietly,
and we can all get along.
Sound good?
[HITOYOSHI] She, in fact,
did not observe quietly at all.
Honestly?
I was never a fan of gym class
when I was in school.
But this and the nurse job
are the easiest
to slack off on, am I right?
I thought you were just
going to keep
on observing us quietly.
What?
Am I not being quiet enough?
Could you not do that
directly into my ear?
[GRACE]
Y'know something?
I get the feeling
it's actually bothering her.
[FEMALE STUDENT 6B]
Hey, Yuki!
Are you gonna serve or not?
[YUKI] Right!
My apologies for the delay!
[giggle]
Are you sure
she's not just worried
about you pulling
something funny again?
[GRACE] Huh?
You didn't notice, did you?
[HITOYOSHI]
Notice what?
Oh, nothing! Forget about it!
[shuddering]
Actually, since
you asked me so politely.
[gasp]
I can tell you everything.
[thud]
[gasps]
[giggle]
[YUKI]
Oh.
That was amazing, Yuki!
Wow! You hit the ball
straight through the net!
[FEMALE STUDENT 6E]
Just what are you made of?
Do you wanna join our club?
[YUKI] Well, I, um.
You see.
[giggle]
[sigh]
♪
[YUKI]
I really messed up back there.
[shuddering]
It's fine.
At the very least, I know
it wasn't your fault.
But what happened?
[chomp]
[birds chirp]
♪
I am not exactly
certain myself.
I understand that
Grace doesn't intend
on doing you any harm.
But still, whenever I see you
with somebody else
from the underworld
I feel this sense
of alienation for some reason.
Is this, too,
a part of being normal?
Or perhaps,
is it possible that
something is wrong with me?
[gasping]
[GRACE]
You didn't notice, did you?
Didn't notice, did you?
MS. YUKI FEELING JEALOUSY
FOR THE FIRST TIME
I think it's normal
to feel that way.
It is?

Master Hitoyoshi?
[birds chirping]
♪
[alert beep]
Good morning, Ms. Yuki.
Look, Master!
The towel
has achieved fluffiness!
Nice!
[HITOYOSHI] It's been a month
since she started learning
how to properly wash towels.
One time, she mixed them
in with the colored load.
Another, she put
in the dishwashing soap
instead of laundry detergent.
She even left tissues
in while washing.
She's overcome
so many failures.
You mastered doing
the laundry!
Way to go!
You've made
so much progress, Ms. Yuki!
I have!
[HITOYOSHI]
Aw, look at Mochita!
He's happy too!
-[giggle]
-It feels so soft and warm.
I'm going to go fold it.

YOKOYA
[HITOYOSHI]
Let's see.
What do you think we should
have for dinner tonight?
Dinner tonight.
I think the only thing
we have in the fridge
is cabbage, isn't it?
Cabbage and slicing
means sliced cabbage.
And a side for the cabbage
would be tonkatsu!
Rather a reserved space
to hold the heavenly
Katsuda's Sauce!
[boiling]
[HITOYOSHI] Mrs. Fuku!
Two tonkatsu, please!
[FUKU]
Coming right up!
Thank you.
They're almost done frying up,
so please just wait
a little while longer.
-That okay?
-Yup!
[FUKU]
By the way.
[laugh]
Who's that beautiful
lady with you?
Look Master, there.
It's Katsuda's Sauce.
There are so many
boxes filled with it!
Well, ya see, she's a maid
who just started
working for us recently.
I can't believe
I'm staring right
at the birthplace
of Katsuda's Sauce.
I am so overwhelmed!
[HITOYOSHI]
I kinda get how you feel.
♪
So you're saying
you've had similar
-feelings as well?
-Yeah.
It was when I went to see
a hero show a long time ago.
[kids laughter]
[HITOYOSHI] When you're staring
at something you love,
your heart feels like
it's gonna explode, doesn't it?
That's normal.
Normal, huh?
[trembling]
[FUKU]
So sorry to keep you waiting.
Now that the tonkatsu's ready,
want us to cut it up?
Yeah, sure! Thanks a lot.
Ah. Look, Master Hitoyoshi!
♪
[YUKI]
His hands tremble with age.
Enough to make holding
a blade dangerous.
Nonetheless,
the moment he slices
through the tonkatsu.
All tremors cease,
and he wields his weapon
with deadly precision.
I wouldn't have
expected him to cut
so evenly at that age.
What kind of training
has he undergone?
Could he be like us?
Is it possible that
he's the legendary assassin
who resides
somewhere in Japan?
[HITOYOSHI]
Fangirling much?
[FUKU]
Something wrong, young man?
-[gasp]
-Nothing!
It's just, our maid
is a diehard fan
of Katsuda's Sauce.
Right?
Hmm.
Ah, so that's what it is.
Glad to hear it.
You should know,
I'm the one
who makes the sauce.
So, you are the goddess
behind this miracle!
I'm sorry to burst
your bubble,
but my husband came up
with the recipe
and I only whip it up.
Don't apologize,
it's super delicious, y'know!
Personally, I'm a fan
of all your
amazing fried dishes!
[FUKU]
Is that so?
Well, thank you very much.
Excuse me!
I would like to extend
my gratitude.
Gratitude?
[YUKI] Until recently,
I only saw food as nourishment.
I never considered that
meals could be tasty or fun.
But the moment
I tasted that sauce,
my entire world changed.
It may sound like
I'm exaggerating
but it really was that
lifechanging.
I can't explain it.
Words can't express
how I feel.
There's this gentle warmth
somewhere
deep inside my heart.
That's why I say once again,
you have my gratitude.
Thank you. Mrs. Fuku Katsuda.
[chuckle]
-It's Ms. Maid, that right?
-[YUKI] Yes.
You feeling happy now, Ms. Maid?
[YUKI] Happy?
Trust me when I say
that warmth
you're feeling is that
of happiness
and it might be because
of that happiness
that you can now see
how delicious the sauce is.
I can't know for sure, though.
Sorry 'bout that.
♪
[YUKI]
The warmth.
Yes, I see.
I believe you might be right.
♪
[grunts]
Hey there, little miss.
You had a little lint
on your shoulder.
I got it for you.
[YUKI] He was able
to sneak up behind me?
As I thought, Master Katsuda
is no ordinary man!
Speaking of which,
we have a fresh batch
of sauce up.
Would you like to try it?
What? Why, yes!
O-Of course! Please!
I'd like to try a bit.
[scream]
Master Hitoyoshi!
It's even better fresh!
It's so delicious!
Uh-huh, I'm glad to hear it.
♪
YOKOYA
[BOTH] Thank you very much
for the meal.
You can leave the post-meal
clean-up duties to me.
Please get some rest,
Master Hitoyoshi.
Thanks, I think I will.

[HITOYOSHI]
How do I put it.
♪
When I see how happy Ms. Yuki
can be nowadays,
it's hard to believe
she was this super
powerful assassin.
♪
DRAGON'S NINE - ASSASSINATION
Figures, the only results
are about Chinese folklore.
♪
Should I just go
and ask Ms. Yuki herself?
Probably not.
She could have reasons
to not want to talk about it.
And besides.
She may have tried
to put her past behind her,
but it might not be
easy to forget.
I wouldn't want her to revisit
any trauma she might have.
It'd be best
if I waited for Ms. Yuki
to share her past with me.
Probably.
But I still want to know
more about her
when she's ready.
♪
[HITOYOSHI'S MOM]
Hitoyoshi.
Hitoyoshi.
We can see each other
anytime, all right?
I'm sorry.
It's my fault that things
are the way they are.
I have to go, okay?
Mom, don't leave! Come back!
[HITOYOSHI'S MOM] We'll see
each other soon, Hitoyoshi.
Please don't leave me!
Please, Mom! Mom!
[sobbing]
[YUKI]
Master Hitoyoshi.
Are you all right, master?
I heard you were groaning
so I came to check up on you,
and then you suddenly
fell towards my direction.
I caught you of course, but.
[scream]
I'm fine! Sorry!
I was only having
a weird dream,
that's all it was!
[YUKI] Were you dreaming
of your mother again?
Uh, mm-hmm.
In that case,
how about resting
your head on my lap?
[HITOYOSHI]
This again?
I'm good! I just woke up
from a nap, so I.
What's this?
[gasp]
You searched the Dragon's Nine?
You're curious of them?
[HITOYOSHI]
Only a little!
I just realized I really
didn't know much about you,
so I had thought.
I do understand.
As for the Dragon's Nine.
To tell you the truth,
I don't know much
about them either.
I was taken in by my mentor
and brought into the clan,
but even after joining,
all I did was follow
whatever orders
I was given without
so much as a question.
That's it.
I have only ever even
laid eyes
on a few of the other members,
and I never found out names,
nor had the chance
to speak with any of them.
[HITOYOSHI] It's not that
she doesn't want to talk
but that she doesn't know.
[YUKI]
Unlike how things are now,
back then it was all
I could do just to stay alive
so I had little interest
in other people.
I started to lose sight
of what I was doing
and if there was even
a reason why I was doing it.
I only had one worry
at that point,
and it was being abandoned
for disappointing my mentor.
♪
That's why it's taking time
to get used to this lifestyle.
The sound of birds chirping,
the sunlight shining
through the curtains.
They're all such simple
things in life
but they sparkle
so brilliantly to me.
It's truly wonderous.
There are times
when I feel like
I haven't woken up yet
and I'm still dreaming.
That's how brightly
this world shines.
However, when I look
at your face, Master.
♪
I am reminded of something.
I'm just a girl who's learning
how to be normal.
That's who I am right now.
♪
One day soon
I hope this lifestyle becomes
second nature and that is when
I'll be able to call
myself normal.
I truly look
forward to that day.
Me, too!
Every morning
when I see your face
I can't help but feel at ease.
I'm so glad.
That after everything
that's happened,
you still chose
to stay here with me.
And that's why
I wanted to get to know
you more!
So anyway, what I mean is,
thank you so much
for being here.
With me.
♪
Of course.
[shuddering]
[YUKI] Then I'll let you know
a new detail about me.
[chuckle]
The reason I love having you
rest your head on my lap
Is because it's a reminder.
It makes me think
of the first time
I did something for you
and how I helped you.
That's why whenever
you have another bad dream,
I'll always be ready
to offer you
my lap for comfort.
Uh.
That's kinda..
Actually, thanks.
I'd love to.
Then I guess it's my turn.
The truth is the dream
I had wasn't exactly a bad one.
Then what kind of dream was it?
[HITOYOSHI]
Well, instead of my mom.
[crying]
My dream was about a hero
coming to save me, I guess.

Look Master, there.
It's Katsuda's Sauce.
There are so many
boxes filled with it!
Well, ya see, she's a maid
who just started
working for us recently.
I can't believe
I'm staring right
at the birthplace
of Katsuda's Sauce.
I am so overwhelmed!
[HITOYOSHI]
I kinda get how you feel.
♪
So you're saying
you've had similar
-feelings as well?
-Yeah.
It was when I went to see
a hero show a long time ago.
[kids laughter]
[HITOYOSHI] When you're staring
at something you love,
your heart feels like
it's gonna explode, doesn't it?
That's normal.
Normal, huh?
[trembling]
[FUKU]
So sorry to keep you waiting.
Now that the tonkatsu's ready,
want us to cut it up?
Yeah, sure! Thanks a lot.
Ah. Look, Master Hitoyoshi!
♪
[YUKI]
His hands tremble with age.
Enough to make holding
a blade dangerous.
Nonetheless,
the moment he slices
through the tonkatsu.
All tremors cease,
and he wields his weapon
with deadly precision.
I wouldn't have
expected him to cut
so evenly at that age.
What kind of training
has he undergone?
Could he be like us?
Is it possible that
he's the legendary assassin
who resides
somewhere in Japan?
[HITOYOSHI]
Fangirling much?
[FUKU]
Something wrong, young man?
-[gasp]
-Nothing!
It's just, our maid
is a diehard fan
of Katsuda's Sauce.
Right?
Hmm.
Ah, so that's what it is.
Glad to hear it.
You should know,
I'm the one
who makes the sauce.
So, you are the goddess
behind this miracle!
I'm sorry to burst
your bubble,
but my husband came up
with the recipe
and I only whip it up.
Don't apologize,
it's super delicious, y'know!
Personally, I'm a fan
of all your
amazing fried dishes!
[FUKU]
Is that so?
Well, thank you very much.
Excuse me!
I would like to extend
my gratitude.
Gratitude?
[YUKI] Until recently,
I only saw food as nourishment.
I never considered that
meals could be tasty or fun.
But the moment
I tasted that sauce,
my entire world changed.
It may sound like
I'm exaggerating
but it really was that
lifechanging.
I can't explain it.
Words can't express
how I feel.
There's this gentle warmth
somewhere
deep inside my heart.
That's why I say once again,
you have my gratitude.
Thank you. Mrs. Fuku Katsuda.
[chuckle]
-It's Ms. Maid, that right?
-[YUKI] Yes.
You feeling happy now, Ms. Maid?
[YUKI] Happy?
Trust me when I say
that warmth
you're feeling is that
of happiness
and it might be because
of that happiness
that you can now see
how delicious the sauce is.
I can't know for sure, though.
Sorry 'bout that.
♪
[YUKI]
The warmth.
Yes, I see.
I believe you might be right.
♪
[grunts]
Hey there, little miss.
You had a little lint
on your shoulder.
I got it for you.
[YUKI] He was able
to sneak up behind me?
As I thought, Master Katsuda
is no ordinary man!
Speaking of which,
we have a fresh batch
of sauce up.
Would you like to try it?
What? Why, yes!
O-Of course! Please!
I'd like to try a bit.
[scream]
Master Hitoyoshi!
It's even better fresh!
It's so delicious!
Uh-huh, I'm glad to hear it.

YOKOYA
[BOTH] Thank you very much
for the meal.
You can leave the post-meal
clean-up duties to me.
Please get some rest,
Master Hitoyoshi.
Thanks, I think I will.

How do I put it.

Should I just go
and ask Ms. Yuki herself?
Probably not.
She could have reasons
to not want to talk about it.
And besides.
She may have tried
to put her past behind her,
but it might not be
easy to forget.
I wouldn't want her to revisit
any trauma she might have.
It'd be best
if I waited for Ms. Yuki
to share her past with me.
Probably.

more about her

Hitoyoshi.
Hitoyoshi.
We can see each other

I'm sorry.
It's my fault that things
are the way they are.
I have to go, okay?
Mom, don't leave! Come back!
[HITOYOSHI'S MOM] We'll see
each other soon, Hitoyoshi.
Please don't leave me!
Please, Mom! Mom!
[sobbing]
[YUKI]
Master Hitoyoshi.
Are you all right, master?
I heard you were groaning
so I came to check up on you,
and then you suddenly
fell towards my direction.
I caught you of course, but.
[scream]
I'm fine! Sorry!
I was only having
a weird dream,
that's all it was!
[YUKI] Were you dreaming
of your mother again?
Uh, mm-hmm.
In that case,
how about resting
your head on my lap?
[HITOYOSHI]
This again?
I'm good! I just woke up
from a nap, so I.
What's this?
[gasp]
You searched the Dragon's Nine?
You're curious of them?
[HITOYOSHI]
Only a little!
I just realized I really
didn't know much about you,
so I had thought.
I do understand.
As for the Dragon's Nine.
To tell you the truth,
I don't know much
about them either.
I was taken in by my mentor
and brought into the clan,
but even after joining,
all I did was follow
whatever orders
I was given without
so much as a question.
That's it.
I have only ever even
laid eyes
on a few of the other members,
and I never found out names,
nor had the chance
to speak with any of them.
[HITOYOSHI] It's not that
she doesn't want to talk
but that she doesn't know.
[YUKI]
Unlike how things are now,
back then it was all
I could do just to stay alive
so I had little interest
in other people.
I started to lose sight
of what I was doing
and if there was even
a reason why I was doing it.
I only had one worry
at that point,
and it was being abandoned
for disappointing my mentor.
♪
That's why it's taking time
to get used to this lifestyle.
The sound of birds chirping,
the sunlight shining
through the curtains.
They're all such simple
things in life
but they sparkle
so brilliantly to me.
It's truly wonderous.
There are times
when I feel like
I haven't woken up yet
and I'm still dreaming.
That's how brightly
this world shines.
However, when I look
at your face, Master.
♪
I am reminded of something.
I'm just a girl who's learning
how to be normal.
That's who I am right now.
♪
One day soon
I hope this lifestyle becomes
second nature and that is when
I'll be able to call
myself normal.
I truly look
forward to that day.
Me, too!
Every morning
when I see your face
I can't help but feel at ease.
I'm so glad.
That after everything
that's happened,
you still chose
to stay here with me.
And that's why
I wanted to get to know
you more!
So anyway, what I mean is,
thank you so much
for being here.
With me.
♪
Of course.
[shuddering]
[YUKI] Then I'll let you know
a new detail about me.
[chuckle]
The reason I love having you
rest your head on my lap
Is because it's a reminder.
It makes me think
of the first time
I did something for you
and how I helped you.
That's why whenever
you have another bad dream,
I'll always be ready
to offer you
my lap for comfort.
Uh.
That's kinda..
Actually, thanks.
I'd love to.
Then I guess it's my turn.
The truth is the dream
I had wasn't exactly a bad one.
Then what kind of dream was it?
[HITOYOSHI]
Well, instead of my mom.
[crying]
My dream was about a hero
coming to save me, I guess.
