They get together to play shogi every day after school, but no matter what she does, she can't seem to coax or trick him into confessing his feelings!

This lighthearted comedy teaches the reader how to play shogi (better than Ayumu) while delivering the laughs readers expect from the creator of Teasing Master Takagi-san!

This story is not a fable about real animals, only about certain people who remind us of these animals. They have similar attitudes, like " hyenas and vultures". Indeed, they are very dangerous in our daily life. "Across the seven seas", and the pond, people are maybe happy with the hyenas because they are delicatesses in Somalia. They are cute for Disneyland movies too, but they are very harmful to society. Please, look for an emergency exit, before you engage in a conversation with them. The story is about two soldiers who served at the Iraq war, and they arrived home, thankfully in one piece. They recommence their lives together, because this way, life is more manageable. Timothy was a lawyer and Kevin was a nurse before the war. After Tim suffered some injuries, he decided to write a book about the Iraq war, and wanted to become a full-time author. Kevin had enough of seeing the bloodshed in war, and decided to become a car dealer. While they had plans to make more money, they met with all kind of impostors.Timothy had a headache with some "fake publishers" and also with his real one. He told Kevin: "When you write a book make sure it will have a hard cover, otherwise some crazy people would probably use it as toilet paper." Kevin got his share of aggravation from some supposed, "sweepstake's agents". The Hyenas represent the "fake publishers" and "Vultures" represent the "fake sweepstake's agents". One day Tim asked Kevin: "Do these imposters ever sleep?" Kevin replied:"They do but even in their dreams they are looking for suckers - like us." " I just hope at least my bones will rest in peace, after I die." With a lot of humor they overcome their stress and try to manage their situations like these impostors "run a rig". Instead of stressing out, they took these situations as if it was a circus show.On the road to finding happiness they meet two beautiful ladies, Judy and Monica who lead them into new adventures in life. After much disappointment and struggle, they realize that money is important but love is what lead them to real happiness. After dealing with "Hyenas and Vultures" in their lives, they've learned to understand the differences between the behaviors of good and bad people. So now, they can say sayonara to the Hyenas and vultures, back in Somalia, where they will be enjoyed as delicatessens.

Die Zeiten sind schwierig. Aber es gibt auch Lichtblicke. Begleiten Sie Herrn Unverzagt auf seinen Wegen...
Sehr genau und auch richtig "fies" nimmt Wilhelm Busch in der frommen Helene so manche Konvention und selbstverständliche Haltung des (katholischen) Bürgertums seiner Zeit aufs Korn und entlarvt ihre Herzlosigkeit und zerstörerische Kraft. Der begnadete Beobachter, geniale Zeichner und - nach allem, was wir wissen - unglückliche Mensch Wilhelm Busch hält uns hier einen Spiegel vor, der heute immer noch ein treffendes Bild so manch eines gesellschaftlich anerkannten Habitus zeigt. Jakob Boch unternimmt Versuch, diese bodenlose Satire ins Kölsche zu übertragen. Der rheinische Charakter, der weder engstirniges Verhalten noch überheblichen Spott darüber allzu ernst nimmt, ist - nach dem Ergebnis zu urteilen - offenbar eine passende Einstellung zur "frommen Helene" von Wilhelm Busch, der mit seinen Zeichnungen meisterhaft unterstreicht, dass Humor eben heißt, trotzdem zu lachen.
