Do It Yourself – Episode 4 – Jobko Crashes at Purin’s Place

Now that Juliet is part of the DIY club, Miku sees her staying at Serufu’s place out of the window. It seems that Miku is getting a bit lonely or jealous?

After Juliet’s grand first appearance and her berating of the DIY Club, she finally joins after discovering that she really enjoys doing it. After all, it bought back nostalgia when she did it with her mother. Not to mention, she hates being alone, especially as a foreigner.

Miku, the tsundere pufferfish she is, seems jealous that Serufu brought back a friend to her house. Not only that, but she is also as clumsy as usual. Either way, Miku feels a bit lonely. Her robot assistant keeps asking about the OS update, mentioning the bath and her mother coming home late. Not too surprising since anything tech-related keep asking if you want to install new updates. I already have a HomeKit security camera malfunctioning recently.

Regardless, Miku will be without dinner until Serufu’s mother invites her for dinner. Miku just wanted to borrow some ingredients to make dinner, but it looks like she is softening up. She almost said her name was Purin until she corrected herself. She wanted to eat dinner by herself. But instead, she met Juliet, whose father is a supernova in the IT field. Let me guess, is he working for the NSA? He must be given what Juliet does later on.

With that, they had dinner, Saltimbocca, but the pork version. It’s funny how Serufu’s pet pig squirms in fear. But, of course, Miku admits that Serufu’s mother’s cooking is good. Juliet ate the meal without any complaints as well.

Also, she finds out from Juliet that she applied to the wrong school and seems interested in the topics Miku’s school is teaching her. Things like AI are the big talk lately with AI-generated art and the controversies behind it. Of course, Miku wanted to return home but ended up in a bath with Juliet at Serufu’s house because she insisted. After all, she hates being alone as she talks about topics Juliet is interested in. As expected, Serufu mentions that Juliet said the same thing about the DIY club when Miku bashed it.

Eventually, Miku went back home and went to bed. When she woke up, she saw Juliet at her computer, hacking it. Yes, even the home automation stuff, which is insecure, by the way. She put it under her own ownership while managing to hack the school and steal the course material. It makes you wonder if the school is high-tech, to begin with, when a child hacker managed to infiltrate the school’s IT infrastructure. It looks like Miku’s school doesn’t pay too much attention to its cybersecurity. Still, I wonder if Juliet’s hacking skills match Kurumi’s. That is why I mentioned the NSA, as they have experienced hackers.

From the looks of it, it’s Serufu’s suggestion for Juliet to stay at Miku’s house since she enjoys her company. So, as expected, Juliet bought a bunch of DIY stuff to build furniture in the loft in Miku’s bedroom. Yep, Serufu and Miku helped as Juliet enjoyed creating her space.

When Miku’s mother found out, she allowed Juliet to stay as long she paid 10,000 yen a month in rent, which is $60 in US dollars ($1 = ¥166). So Juliet was about to pay 10,000 dollars. Obviously, it’s very cheap compared to rent in the good old USA, especially in the big cities. Also, Miku’s mother, like Serufu’s, is pretty.

That night, Serufuu remembers the time she gave a wind chime. Serufu mentions when they are on the slide that she wants to make a hideout in the tree. Of course, when Serufu says it to Rei about building a treehouse, she is willing to do it. Then, of course, the long black-haired and tan girl who usually hangs out with Miku entered the clubhouse from the room. It seems that she is interested in doing DIY, given her entrance. Either way, it should be interesting to learn more about her next time.
