A Bride for Rip Van Winkle Page #3

Synopsis: Nanami is an apathetic, part-time junior high school teacher, whose only solace comes from connecting with others on "Planet", a new social network service. One day, a young man named Tetsuya messages her and asks to meet in person. The two begin dating and quickly become engaged. When Testuya begs Nanami to increase her guest list for the wedding, Nanami reaches out to online-friend, Amuro, a self-proclaimed jack-of-all-trades, who hires actors to play Nanami's guests on her big day. A few weeks following the ceremony, Tetsuya's mother confronts Nanami with allegations of lying and cheating. Heartbroken and despondent, Nanami checks herself into a hotel and manages to get hired there as a maid. One day, Amuro offers Nanami a housekeeping job in an old mansion, whose sole resident's infectious spirit helps Nanami to open her heart. However, Nanami soon realizes that Amuro, the mansion, and its occupant aren't what they seem - and even dreams have limits.

we'll be able to provide it.

Please take a look.

It isn't cheap.

No, but since you're Ramba Ral's friend...

...I'll give you a discount.

Good evening, Kanon.

Good evening, I'm Kanon's mother.

I read your e-mail.

Congratulations on your engagement.

Thank you very much.

Pardon my asking, but do you have to quit?

I apologize.

I'm really...l have to say that...

My daughter only wants you as her teacher.

What?

Could you continue her lessons?

There are much better teachers out there.

She doesn't want anyone else.

She hasn't been to school in 5 months.

For my daughter, you are

her one and only teacher.

Could you please try? Even once a week?

Okay.

If you insist.

You will?

I'm so glad!

I'm so sorry to trouble you.

Hold on one moment.

Hey Kanon...

...she agreed.

Excuse me.

Congratulations, sir.

Thank you.

I'm Amuro of Aznable, the attendance service.

Pleasure to meet you.

Thank you very much.

Please, sit down.

As your daughter has already informed you...

...for today's ceremony, we have

several replacement attendees.

Won't people notice?

Don't worry, we are professionals.

We can't thank you enough.

Thank you for having us.

Thank you, everyone.

You know...

Hm?

I'm suddenly getting nervous.

Yeah.

Do you know a "Clammbon"?

Clammbon?

You don't know?

Looks like she's also getting married.

I found my boyfriend on

an internet dating site.

It was too easy, like I was shopping online.

If my fiance wrote this, it'd mean divorce.

I'd divorce her.

I really feel sorry for this groom.

This isn't you?

It's not.

I know we also met online...

...but let's try to be happy.

We will now exchange the rings.

From the groom to the bride.

From the bride to the groom.

Now the groom may raise the veil.

Now, will the groom...

...please kiss the bride!

Please give your applause to the newlyweds!

Please applaud when

the knife goes into the cake.

Are you ready with your cameras?

Now, the cutting of the cake!

Hold it right there!

Some villains have entered the hall.

Could they be friends of the groom?

Love-Love-Lovingly Lovely Beam!

What the hell is that? Stop joking around!

Love-Love Love Beam.

You're too kind, Tetsuya.

The newlyweds will now present

their words of appreciation.

Who are these little ones?

What is this?

Daddy, Mommy...it's me Tetsuya.

Our family has a farm

so dinner is always delicious.

On weekends, you'd hold

the stick out like this...

...in place of a bar.

That's howl learned to spin upward.

In middle school, I dedicated myself to sports.

Slam! High to right field!

I run home...

For me, school went by

without much of anything.

My grades were average too.

I had no clue what I was going to do in life.
