Plot Summary
National Foundation Day
Italy congratulates Japan on his birthday and offers him a bouquet of flowers as a present, though Germany points out that it's technically a commemoration of the day that the country was founded. Japan thanks Italy for the bouquet, while Italy is curious as to how many times he's celebrated his birthday. Japan states that he doesn't quite remember and that he used to be happy about his birthday but now sees it as rather ordinary. Italy then remarks that he sounds like "an old man", to which Japan replies that his body is in fact quite old and that he experiences hip pains (much to Italy's horror).
Japan adds that in addition to the hip pain, his blood pressure is very high and it causes him to wander his neighborhood aimlessly. Italy becomes even more disturbed, while Germany suggests that Japan watch his sodium intake.
Salted Salmon, Germany, and I
Germany announces that he'll be supervising their meals from this point on, to the shock of Japan, who's busy eating a pickled vegetable (which Germany adds he'll be confiscating). Japan asks if pollock roe would be okay to eat, though Germany states that it's forbidden. Japan then asks about salmon roe and sardines, only to be shot down again each time. Now panicking and raising his voice, Japan asks desperately about soused mackerel.
Italy then walks into the room, wondering what Japan and Germany have been up to.
Prone to Worrying
Germany concludes a training exercise, but then notes that Japan will have to stay and exercise longer. Italy watches Japan run, thinking to himself that it's strange that Japan would be working that hard. He then finds a piece of paper with diet instructions on it and starts to read it out of curiosity, while Japan continues to exercise.
A little later, Japan finishes and sits by Italy, as he wonders what purpose is behind the intense training. Italy shows him the diet paper, and he starts to read...
Catalia (Nekotalia) part 1
A cat with a curled hair like Italy's introduces himself to the audience as Italy-cat (Italia-neko) and explains that he's busy searching for other cute cats. He then spots a serious-looking black cat with a German flag collar and recognizes it as Germany-cat (Doitsu-neko). Italy-cat adds that although Germany-cat is male, he's very cool to hang around with, which he does a lot.
Italy-cat yells for Germany-cat to stop showing off his balls and to come play with him. Germany-cat lashes out to scratch, but realizes who the other cat is and explains that he's not showing off, but only resting. He adds that he has a certain time that he must rest and that if he breaks that rule, he'll be punished. Italy-cat is surprised that there's even a rule for sleeping.
Italy-cat then decides that he'll just have to play by himself, and starts to swat at Germany-cat's tail. Germany-cat becomes enraged at having his tail played with, so Italy-cat decides that he'll just roll around for "siesta time". Germany-cat then hisses at him and orders him to be quiet, then adds that he can play the "quiet game". Italy-cat cheers about Germany-cat's "nice" attitude, but then realizes that he must stay quiet. He then prepares to pounce at Germany-cat's balls.
Meanwhile, a black-and-white cat resembling Japan is busy being licked by Pochi, as Italy-cat can be heard yowling.
