On the occasion of its ending, I will storytime Ura Baito, one job per day. Most jobs are around 3-4 chapters, and self contained, so feel free to join at any time.Today's job: Hot Spring Inn StaffPrevious thread:>>291018777>Ura baito, also known as a shady part-time job. A gray area job that pays very well. The price you pay is your life.>Yume Kokuryo and Nagomi Shirahama are in need of money in a hurry. To that end, they casually dive into various shady part-time jobs

>>291088825This expression is honestly too specific for the author to not have seen it directly
>>291088672That's quite hot, like some sort of indirect kiss.
Chapter 33: Hot Spring Inn Staff (3)
>>291089070Having an ass that gigantic should be fucking ILLEGAL
>>291089070Finally some anatomical enlightening
Done. It's nice to see some people with a sense of right and wrong, from time to time. See you tomorrow!
>>291089257Good thing his guess was right because the girl he got that from would have sent his ass to jail
Wait a minute, are they still trapped in the fire?
>>291089281You can't do anything in nipland without dying. That's the real reason behind the dwindling population.
>>291088618A smile you can trust.
>>291089388It's really weird how ghost don't try to haunt Yume's tits more often.
>>291089483I'm assuming she's burning the water or something. She could have waited for the employees to get out.
>>291088672I'll let Yume blow on my food as well.
>>291088730Is that the SFX for laughing in the second panel?
>>291089549Maybe it's not a good moment to talk your feelings out.
>>291089298Where's the strongest ghost hunter when you need her?
>>291088974So why were the cleaners drowning?
>>291088992>Normal cases are more prevalentGrays are slacking.
>>291090144I assume the pozzed water gets angry when it gets flushed.
>>291089070Is there a part of Yume that isn't mASSive?
>>291090193>pozzed waterwhat
>>291089373Great expression on the second to last panel.
>Oh, a fountain of youth that gives you life by stealing other's? You silly goose. You dumbass. It's just a parasitic being in the shape of water that instantly kills you the second you touch it and steals your entire self to infiltrate societyExterminatus when?
>>291090249Isn't the water an alien that dissolves people and replaces them?
>>291088572>>291088641Sexual harassment.
>>291088641Yume-chans fat tits
>>291090564You might be right, but consider the following.
>>291090635I am considering
>>291088790hooly crap did they get bigger just now??
>>291089047
RIP old lady, you tried to do the right thing and end the madness.
>>291089161What
>>291089161How exactly do you steal a jar worth of bodily fluid without getting caught?
>>291089070i don't knw how i missed how big yume ass when ifirst read this
>>291092207He has got powers
>>291089070That is an obscenely fat ass
>>291089597Thanks OP
>>291089070
>>291089047Is Yume supposed to be slightly overweight? She's got some pretty noticeable lovehandles on her here>>291089070Fuark I guess so
>>291093460i thinkl its just weird proportions
>>291093460I always thought she was, or that at least she was purposefully made to look noticeably less toned than Hama, since the mangaka likes to give the leads opposing characteristics. Also her ass reminds me of what you get after working a desk job for years but we know this to not be the case
>>291088641>>291090692The shape is a lot more pronounced too. So is this going to be like that one mahjong series where it just keeps increasing over the chapters?
>>291090209every part of her, including her beautiful soul, is absolutely mASSive.
>>291090036I mean she's making an impulsive decision to burn down the entire hot spring and kill herself here so not waiting for the employees to get out is kind of understandable even if contradictory
>>291089813The girls may not be curse-resistant, but boy are they fireproof
got up to date with fuan no tane, kinda wish PTSD was still releasing but author got cursed, it had such a eerie atmosphere
>>291089412Terrible customer service and ability to handle emergencies. Would not recommend these employees at all.

>>291089257Ew, it's a fucking shoggoth.
>>291089298Replaced you say...
>>291089373This old lady is the best employer they've had yet. 100% determined to say fuck these Grays.>>291089388It sounds heartless, but this is probably the only way Yagi has retained his sanity for so long in this line of work.
>>291089549Guys the building is burning down.
>>291089597Thanks OP. I do not think their plan will go the way they're hoping it will.
>>291088618Chacha stole a ton of his life essence since his first appearance huh

>>291107982I knew it, every single time
>>291088672Hey, aren't these the actions of a pervert? Should this guy really be allowed to get married?
>>291109187he is married to horse racing
>>291109235he is going to become the concubine of a horse at this rate
>>291105353This man needs an intervention.
>>291109187Chacha is a different flavour of pervert so it's okay
>>291105353Why was the granny looking like an axe murderer in that page?Is that just a normal reaction to uma fans?

>>291103726STO
>>291112014i have it easy, sanpaku eyes and plain black hair was already my thing, this shit is like a buffet
>>291112476based
>>291112014I didn't know there were so many baito gooners until I joined the storytime threads but to each their own. Now I'm curious if there's anyone who genuinely has the hots for the ghosts but not the girls
>>291114349well there havent been any cute grays so far...
>>291114462If you need a character to look cute in order to be able to goon to them, you fall closer to the tried and true girl-lover category than the visionary ghost-loving category
>>291089549they are way too creepy
>>291114938but the problem is that all of them were male so far

Oi! Baito!

>>291114349Kamui crossover when
>>291119356
>>291119356You're quite possibly referring to the biggest Gray-gooner of all
>>291120808Non-zero chance that he came into Yayoi several times before the Incident.

Chapter 36: Radio Station AD (3)
>>291121351Black Mountain Dream-san...
Done. I've been listening to a lot more radio lately, but it's hard to find decent stations that are mostly talking. Still, listening to a live signal feels more 'soulful' thatn listening to a podcast, somehow.See you tomorrow!
>>291121211>Swelling Erection-sanliterally me
>>291121316>Nami yo Kiite Kure time
>>291121211>>291121227These answers suck!No wonder everyone leaves the station. I would have died from cringe.
>>291121211Just because he's called Dickman he can't have enjoy a polite, prude environment? Yeah I'd curse those assholes in a heartbeat
>>291121351Kek, she'll remember this.
>>291121426Poor Daidai.
>>291103714Yume is a big girl.
I didn't realize how much I missed Hama until this storytime.
>>291121426"My parents told me good riddance when I left home."Jesus.
>>291121591Cute Hama-chan.>>291121642Ok that's a little too much emotion now, please go back to normal Hama.
>>291121642Legendary Gold Hama
>>291121426I'm DaiDai!
>>291121211Un saludo para Micho, Tito, Gordo, Negro y Cabezón.
>>291121426daidai hijack lol
>>291121316I hope she can make good dick jokes
>>291121426Her parents can't be normal either
>>291121642Thanks OPCan't say I understood this one.
>>291121634I wonder if they could just abandon the station for good.
>>291121642Greys might be few but they have insane reach desu.
>>291123082A crazy bitch was stalking the long haired dude back when he was a radio host.She killed herself and then started haunting his program through emails and radio waves.If they stop his program, she shows up to the station.
>>291123221ThanksSo what was happening in the last few pages?
>>291123301I guess the ghost showed up again because she was mad that they cut the power and/or that Hama talked shit to her.
>>291111199The classic bait and switch>woah this granny is making a spooky face, what if she's the grey?>nah just kidding she's cool
>>291121168Being Hama is suffering

>>291121242that panel 3>get a load of this guy
>>291121840My nigga, I was thinking the same thingGod why did I have to waifu Minare
>>291121634One of the weaker greys, in my opinion. Just a ghost of some annoying attention-seeking twat.>>291121642Ha. The opposite of me and my family. We prefer listening to the radio's music instead of radio hosts chatting. Eventually we stopped listening to radio because there's way too much talking, and went with CDs and USBs. Wish I could trade radio stations with you, OP.
>>291124956Play around with this onehttps://radio.gardenThere are a ton of mostly music radio stations around the world. I like FIP, myself.
>>291125027Sweet, thanks.>hosts yapping >world news>traffic details>prank calls>adsNope, my area's radio channels still suck.
>decide to check on Toshidensetsu-senpai>35 chapters probably got axed>go to author twiiter>talking the manga won 5th place on Next Manga Awardswhy the fuck did it get axed lol
>>291125531I don't know but it still hurts, the book was funny and the girls were cute
>>291121168Poor Hama.
>>291125531Personally I think the Nibiru arc's scope was way too big. Ghosts and cryptids are fine, even the part where they traveled to the Congo because the club prez's dad happened to be a cryptid hunter. But a world-ending threat, followed by a reset and canon death of one of the main characters is way too much.
>>291126453Scope creep is something that a lot of series have trouble dealing with, but the episodic nature of Urban Legend Files should've allowed the author to just go back the smaller stuff.Though I can't think of where they could go to next, Urban legends feels limiting as a concept once you tackle all the ones most people know.
>>291089117Wait... so, >>291088618 same couple?
>>291122429True
>>291124612At least she's no longer alone! Healing Yume-chan powers activate
>>291125165I use an aggregator app for internet radio and there's a fuckton of music-only stations if you take the time to filter by genre. The companion website's manyfm.com, haven't tried it myself but the functionality should be the same
>>291128874yup
>>291129401I finished the chapter and found out they're "not really" the same...
>>291129457oops
>>291121145>Going to die死ぬ?
>>291121555>Yume flashing Hama in her hour of need
>>291088803
>>291121227
>>291121432
>>291121555How do you respond?
>>291129975im jealous... but hama deserves it more than i do
>>291130218Flash back? And then we live happily ever after?
>>291121426Daidai...
>>291127648There were a ton of Japanese urban legends back in the day about all sorts of things, like clothing stores that were fronts for kidnapping rings, explosive cacti erroneously sold as regular cacti, and more cryptids and spirits than you can count.Of course, most did not survive the technology age, but it doesn't really matter. What matters is having that urban legend feel. The author should've just started making them up as he went along.
>>291132783if you think about it, the japanese have been in the business of sharing urban legends since the edo period.
>>291127648I mean, it doesn't have to be japanese. Or urban. They were hunting thunderbirds out there! And let's not forget the power of 'just make shit up' like Tezuka with Blackjack.
>>291121426I'd marry her and give her a new home...
>>291121451Oh, did the original text say 'yume' here? How on the nose.
>>291132783The funniest one was when people kept disappearing at the beach and everyone thought that North Korea was kidnapping them and it turned out that North Korea was actually kidnapping them.
>>291133804The only thing I can say is girl you're such a yearnerI recall Yume's name being written phonetically in the manga for some reason
>>291121432>you are... big liar
>>291121412I have to say, the author is good at writing incoherent schizobabble. You obtained dialysis.
>>291121642We will walk the path of pure form of love known as yuri or the westernish female friendship based on the uterus power?
>>291135471ahem*eats kariume*you stink
>>291121555Yume is so fashionable.
>>291121555Yume dress herself as if she is a exhibionist naked under that coat
>>291121529listen to her anon
More extras
That's it for now.
>>291140871>Carry buddy yume-chan inher chest >>291140871Buddy yume-chan is powerfulll...
>>291140844>Multiple souls in the dollWait what.>>290951654I thought it was just the guy guessing there were more than one soul, not confirmation that there is more than one.
>>291141480it was a guess but now its a confirmation
>>291132976It doesn't seem difficult to make them desu. Just choose a Japanese thing and make a mean ghost haunt it. Make the mean ghost SOlface for maximum scares and you're set up.
>>291141966Kikikikiki does that it just mae somebullshit urban stuff too lol
>>291142018Yes, have fun, Daidai
>>291140871This would instantly disintegrate all of Yayoi's graduates at the same time, btw.
>>291121555Osamu sweat drop
>>291142018Do you mean Kaikai Gigigigigi, Uguisu Sachiko's latest manga? Yeah, she just makes up some random shit all the time and it works
>>291142670yeah, i had a stroke while writing that
>>291136955a wild baku has appeared

>>291144784Me and my waifu bottom left panel
>>291145476Honestly, the real danger seems to be the crazy lady running the venue, not the ghost marriage.
>>291145476they suck, real cakes from the old lady store near my house that are the good shit

Gray Compendium>Gray: Ghost WeddingA ritual presided over by entities that marries the living with the dead.>First appearance:Chapter 37>Method of Escape:Pretend everything is normal. >291145113Do not make any indication that something is out of the ordinary. >291145238Don't be killed by the host. >291145476>Details:The entities appear to be shadows of long figures resembling stick figures. >291145238 >291145188 >291144837The entities possess a wedding venue. >291145458Viewers in a ghost wedding (the normal version) performed in this venue will see different things while the event is ongoing. Example: when a roasted chicken is presented, some viewers may instead see a decapitated head. >291144837Example: the groom is an unmoving doll. Some viewers may see the doll as suddenly possessed and moving. >291145010The entities may also attempt an illusion outside of a ghost wedding if there are insufficient guests invited. >291145222Anyone who can notice this illusion will be invited to the hosts Ghost Wedding. >291145278The entities cannot harm anyone and it is up to the host to ensure someone is invited to their Ghost Wedding by killing them. >291145308>Additional Remarks:It appears that the entities involved do not benefit in any way.Perhaps the entities possess the corpse of the invited guests to act as guests at the host's Ghost Wedding? >291145278Additional research is not required. There is nothing notable about this Gray.>>291148137To my understanding, the Gray is supposed to assist in creating and planning the perfect wedding for anyone who calls on them, in this case for Kon, the fat woman.
>>291148137>>291149063Part of planning a perfect wedding is ensuring there are guests. The Gray can't possess just anyone so it filters out ideal vessels for possession by creating an illusion. Anyone who can see the illusion is deemed a good vessel (invited) and the host has to do their part in the planning by killing the person.In the end, she goes through with the wedding despite not having enough guests but there doesn't seem to be any repercussions this. Or maybe her killing everyone at the wedding venue was enough to satisfy the Gray despite the subpar sacrifices.It's just a way for the fat woman to get married because she can't find anyone who loves her so she gets the Gray to force a wedding between her and some victim.
>>291149122There is ghost wedding - the normal kind that is traditionally practiced - and the Gray Ghost Wedding -the one where the groom/bride is some sacrifice.The Gray is not restricted to a normal ghost wedding because it can also produce illusions to fool some people at a normal wedding. >>291144820 >>291144837
>>291145150>>291145164>>291148038As for this double. It's a red herring. A normal ghost marriage can also be between two deceased people. In this case, the psychos who organized it also ended up killing the bride so she can join the groom in the afterlife. >>291145347
>>291144837imagine eating corpse, h-haha
>>291145049WUT?
>>291145068WUT??? (again)
>>291145476Thanks OPI've never eaten a single wedding cake even though I attended a LOT of marriage ceremonies, maybe those are for the family memberAlso, I think she was divorced before, so she's coping by thinking ghost marriage is better, this is probably my weakest file so far too>human le monster lol
>>291145458Shoot her, duh
>>291149063Perhaps the gray are just accepting the invitation of the host, they did nothing wrong, more like they did nothing except accept the invitation and attend the ceremony, it was all up to the crazy ladyThey probably don't even need a possessed body to attend the ceremony?
>>291144948You know this page actually really shows off Yume's wide hips compared to Hama's.
>>291145476Thanks OP
>>291140844This doll is pure evil.>>291140871...Okay, maybe not PURE evil.
>>291144759Congrats.
>>291144802>Titan Atelier be like
Later there's a job where the girls rent themselves out to fill various social roles and are expected by employers to lose their sense of self. And the roles they take as this happens are that of a mother, wife and girlfriend? Or sister? Don't remember the 3rd one but they basically fall into the 3 basic womanly roles as they start to get consumed, but the job concludes by Yume & Hama coming to their senses and continuing down their own path in life. I somehow feel like thematically, the marriage job is in the same vein as the rental job, because Kon-san has an idealistic onsessive view of the ritual of wedding, to the point where the before and after and the circumstances don't matter as long as the wedding happens. And our heroes treat the sanctity of the ritual... by fucking up a wedding cake on it. As for "le humanz le evil", the premise of Ura Baito is that many years ago someone cursed their fellow human for the first time and that's how everything went to shit, so kek
>>291151763Impure evil yup
>>291151891"Humans are the real monsters" is actually true IRL
>>291152651I mean yeah, it just looks distasteful in stories unless it's really well-presented, I thing that's what >>291149633 is talking about
>>291145157Oh?You saw?
