Tsuruno, Meiyui is super good at kung fu.
Make me your disciple, Meiyui-sensei!
Please to stop calling me sensei. I am not worthy of that...
Meiyui, don't bother...
Huh? What do you mean?
Anyway, please! I'd like you to train Tsuruno!
PLEASE!
My kung fu... I am still training. I am not ready to be a teacher.
And what do you mean by training?
You want to do the same thing as me? I can't do that.
My master would be very angry if he heard I was teaching someone!
He might even kick me out of his school.

Akira, why don't you train her yourself?
No, I can't... I'm not confident enough...
Neither am I.

She's tough. She'll be fine.

There's a bunch of heavy things here. Your job is to carry them.
Carry heavy things, get strong.

Hup! Got it!

...Wow! I'm impressed!

(She is already very strong... Or maybe she isn't a normal girl...?)

Hmm? Oh, it's nothing.
Anyway, I'm so glad you brought her around! We really needed the man...er...girlpower!
And she's got so much spirit and energy too! She's brightening up the whole factory!

...Try not to make a big deal out of everything.
...Huh?
Instead of agonizing over little things, why not try expanding your thinking a bit?
But...
There must be something you can do to improve things.
Working a little bit every day to reach a big goal is also important, you know.

They said it was fun to work with you, and they want you to come back.

...Huh? What?
And I've got a message for you from the owner of that lost dog!
She said thank you so much for finding her precious doggie!
The owner is a nice old lady that lives alone.
So that dog is her only family.
I can't tell you how grateful she was for what you did, Tsuruno!

Oh, you're not listening, are you? Yeah, definitely not.
Come on, let's practice! Let's spar a bit!
