Do It Yourself – Episode 3 – Queen Juliet and the Culture Shock

October 19, 2022 by Chikorita157 3 Comments
As expected, Sefuru fell off the bike again.

Last time, a limbo rolled up to Serufu’s school. Also, the blonde hair girl keeps visiting the DIY clubhouse for some reason. I wonder why?

As expected, the blonde hair girl arrived in a helicopter to the fancy new school. It looks like a spectacle. Then, of course, Miku runs into the blonde hair girl standing by the gate. Somehow, she gets upset at Miku for trying to ask for help from the girl and tells her to shut up.

Like Miku, Juliet is a tsundere, but for different reasons.

Well, she is a brash 12-year-old genius that skipped grades. But, of course, nobody knew what had happened as the limbo pulled up to the school next door. Unfortunately, it looks as if she applied to the wrong school. While she doesn’t reveal her name until later, her name is Juliet Queen Elizabeth VIII, which is a mouthful.

Juliet’s parents’ last name got named after her majesty, who unfortunately passed away last month. What I don’t get is that Serufu said she was American. Kind of odd since the Royal Family is uniquely British. This makes me wonder if Juliet’s family moved to America since Boris Johnson got his Brexit and ruined the United Kingdom. Yes, I want to make a Brexit joke.

It’s obvious why she stops by the DIY clubhouse.

Even so, it’s evident in some ways that Juliet acts like an American. After all, she has a brash and cold personality, probably harsher than Miku herself. Her trash-talking about the DIY club makes it evident when she spies on her. That is when Serufu practices nailing a wood with a hammer and eventually notices Juliet crying.

She continues to act a bit cold when she blushes. I wonder why?
Despite being able to speak Japanese, she has a hard time even reading kana.

Serufu lent her a handkerchief and mentioned the shed was for the DIY club. That is before she blushes and trash-talks the club, saying the same things Miku did about the club being moldy, outdated, and useless. Serufu even mentions that Miku said the same. Juliet upsets Rei by trash-talking the club as Serufu trips on her shoelace and falls on her. That is not too surprising, given Serufu’s clumsiness.

Sadly, Juliet is feeling a bit lonely.

Obviously, Juliet is experiencing culture shock and not knowing enough Kanji, as with most people who learn Japanese as a second language. Still, Juliet’s Japanese speaking skills aren’t bad for someone who skipped a few grades. However, she seems to have difficulty reading a sweet Japanese box in only kana. Wait, how she even knows how to speak Japanese and not understand the kana? Did she learn Japanese from Japanese: The Spoken Language, which uses romaji only and not Genki? Oh god, the horror!

It’s obvious why she keeps coming back, but won’t admit to it.
Yes, she even said Serufu’s nailing is shit.

Whether Juliet knows Kana and Kanji or not, it’s obvious she is having difficulty fitting in. After all, there is a big difference between Japanese and American culture and society, causing a culture shock. Since she looks like a foreigner, people are reluctant to talk to her as they think she doesn’t know Japanese well. In a way, badmouthing the DIY club is a way to cope with her difficulties fitting in. She even says Sefuru’s nailing is shit when she returns Sefuru’s handkerchief. She boasts about building a smartphone herself the next day. Wait, you can make your own smartphone through automation? Not so sure about the last part, but there are kits to build your own in real life.

Yep, the DIY club’s members wants Juliet to become honest with herself.

As Rei gets upset at Juliet as she badmouths the club even more before she runs away. Yes, Sefuru’s chased after her and got dirty. They finally realize why she is acting like this, and deep inside, she is interested but can’t reveal her feelings.

Believe it or not, she had an interest in DIY thanks to her mother.

After all, we saw flashbacks of her doing DIY projects with her mother. They eventually followed her the next day and bought her to the club. She ultimately shows Sefuru how to drill a hole and put a screw in it with a drill. She is also amazed by how good the entry model is. Finally, she becomes honest with herself and joins the club.

At least they got a new member and for Juliet, a place to hang out.

With that, Sefuru discovers a new nickname for Juliet’s overly long name, Jobko. Yep, we have Purin (3D Printer), Yua Sefuru (Your Self), Takumi (Japanese word for artisan/craftsman) and now, job. Yep, they keep bringing the DIY puns going. But at least she has a place where she can socialize comfortably.

    Smol girl fans going crazy for Jobko as expected. Good episode regardless.

      Also with that name too, but I have to admit her personality is funny and surprisingly more tsundere than Miku, although Juliet defrosted quickly as they come. Only a matter of time until Miku joins.
