[00:13] Man
    Hello, Madoka!
[00:14] mado
    Hello!
[00:16] mado
    Are you gentlemen
    visiting the shrine together?
[00:19] Man
    Didn't you hear?
[00:21] Man
    There was the first tug-of-war
    match in a while at the temple earlier.
[00:25] mado
    I've been at the library all morning
     reading to the children...
[00:31] mado
    Then again, I think maybe
[00:34] ---
    Grandfather mentioned
    something about that yesterday.
[00:37] mado
    Who was competing against whom?
[00:40] Man
    It's going to be Sakai from the sake store and
[00:42] Man
    that kid from the big city, you know?
[00:45] mado
    You mean Kazuma?
[00:47] Man1
    Yeah, that's him!
[00:47] Man1
    He comes to my
    store too sometimes.
[00:50] mado
    But why on earth
    was Kazuma competing
[00:53] ---
    against Mr. Sakai in a
     game of tug-of-war?!
[00:55] Man
    I don't know.
[00:57] Man
    I only came to watch
    since he told me about it.
[01:01] Man2
    I heard it from a Yorozuyo
    waitress who came to my store,
[01:04] ---
    so I don't really know the details...
[01:06] Old
    What the hell?
[01:07] Old
    You guys were
    getting all worked up
[01:09] ---
    without knowing anything?
[01:11] Old
    Since ancient times,
     the temple tug-of-wars
[01:14] Old
    have always been about
    asking a girl's hand in marriage.
[01:16] Man
    Wait, so...
[01:18] Old
    I bet the kid asked for his daughter
[01:22] ---
    and it threw the old man into a fit.
[01:24] Man
    I see.
[01:26] Man
    So I guess they decided the fate
[01:27] ---
    of his only daughter through the match.
[01:29] Old
    It sure takes me back.
[01:30] Old
    I remember when I
    asked for my wife's hand.
[01:33] Old
    Her father was dead against it,
[01:35] ---
    and decided that we needed to settle it
[01:37] ---
    in front of the temple
    in a tug-of-war match.
[01:39] Old
    Back then, tug-of-war
[01:42] ---
    was sometimes referred to as "tug-of-wife".
[01:42] mado
    So that means Kazuma and Sakai are...
[01:43] ---
    Since you were pulling both the rope...
[03:17] mado
    But...
[03:18] mado
    But we've just
     become friends!
[03:22] mado
    And now you have to leave...
[03:24] Kaz
    We'll always be friends.
[03:27] mado
    We'll always...
[03:28] mado
    be friends?
[03:30] Kaz
    That's right.
[03:32] mado
    Okay.
[03:38] ---
    Minamikokubaru Daigo
[03:46] Kaz
    Yes, hello?
[03:48] Dai
    Hey bro, it's me!
[03:49] Kaz
    Daigo, what do you want?
[03:51] Dai
    Listen man, you gotta help me!
[03:53] Kaz
    Huh?

[04:04] Koy
    Hello!
[04:07] Oba
    Hello, Koyori!
[04:08] Oba
    It looks like you're back from your trip.
[04:10] Oba
    Did you have fun in Hawaii?
[04:12] Koy
    I sure did!
[04:13] Koy
    And I brought back some souvenirs.
[04:14] Koy
    Is Madoka here?
[04:15] Oba
    She's here, but she's not feeling so well...
[04:20] Koy
    Is she sick?
[04:21] Oba
    I wouldn't go so far
    as to say she's sick.
[04:24] Oba
    I think she might be
    suffering a bit from the heat.
[04:27] Oba
    I guess...
[04:28] ---
    She hasn't been feeling well
[04:31] ---
    ever since the day
    of the tug-of-war match.
[04:32] Koy
    Tug-of-war match?
[04:34] Koy
    Isn't that how they used to
    settle disputes in the olden times?
[04:37] Koy
    So why did they have one?
[04:38] Oba
    I didn't really understand it myself.
[04:41] Oba
    Oh well, I'm sure seeing your face
[04:43] ---
    will cheer her right up.
[04:45] Oba
    Why don't you go say hi to her?
[04:47] Koy
    All right.
[04:50] Old
    I see.
[04:54] Old
    You're saying she's been
    listless since the tug-of-war match.
[04:56] Koy
    Yeah.
[04:58] Old
    Well, I guess Kazuma's the cause of that.
[05:01] Koy
    What?
[05:02] Koy
    Did he do something to her?!
[05:04] Old
    Huh?
[05:05] Old
    No, that's not what I meant.
[05:07] Old
    But you see, Koyori,
[05:09] ---
    in the old times,
     tug-of-war at the temple
[05:11] ---
    was called tug-of-wife.
[05:14] Old
    You see, both the rope and the wife were...
[05:19] Dai
    I would like to thank you all warmly
[05:21] ---
    for joining me at the emergency
[05:22] Dai
    "Let's Get All Our Piled Up Summer
    Homework Done Together" meeting.
[05:28] Dai
    To enjoy the few remaining days of summer,
[05:29] Dai
    it is of tantamount importance
[05:31] ---
    that we tie up the lingering
     threads of our home...
[05:33] Koy
    Kazuma!
[05:34] Koy
    Are you here?!
[05:35] Kaz
    Yes.
[05:37] Kaz
    What's up?
[05:42] Koy
    Kazuma!
[05:43] ---
    Huh?
[05:44] Koy
    You bastard!
[05:50] Koy
    Is it true that you're marrying Hina?!
[05:53] Kaz
    What?
[05:54] Kaz
    Marriage?
[05:56] Kaz
    Huh?
[05:57] All
    What?!
[06:02] Koy
    Oh.
[06:03] Koy
    So I guess you two
    aren't getting married after all.
[06:06] Kaz
    Of course not!
[06:08] Kaz
    Where did you even get that idea?
[06:10] Ui
    I didn't even know about this event.
[06:13] ---
    I would've gone and cheered you on!
[06:16] Kaz
    Well, it was...
[06:17] ibu
    I guess it's pretty decent
     of you to put yourself on the line
[06:20] ---
    for Sakai's sake.
[06:23] Kaz
    I guess I didn't hear about
     it because I was in Hawaii,
[06:25] Kaz
    but as the official ears of Yamabiko,
[06:28] ---
    I can't believe I had to
    miss an event like that!
[06:33] Ayu
    My brother looked really cool in his loin cloth.
[06:37] Kaz
    Geez, Ayumu, don't talk about it!
[06:39] Koy
    Then I'm going to go and
     report back to Madoka.
[06:43] Kaz
    Why would you tell her?
[06:46] Koy
    Because she's been feeling down
[06:48] ---
    ever since the tug-of-war happened
[06:49] Koy
    and Grandpa Gen said it was because
[06:52] ---
    you and Hina were getting married.
[06:53] Koy
    So if I tell her that's not true, she'll...
[06:55] Dai
    Hold it right there!
[06:56] Dai
    So what you're saying is...
[06:57] Dai
    that Madoka is...
[06:59] Dai
    in love with Kazuma?!
[07:09] Koy
    You really think
    that's what's going on?!
[07:11] Dai
    You're asking me?!
[07:14] Dai
    Wait, did you get all worked up
    without understanding that part?
[07:17] Kaz
    She's never been one
    for thinking things through.
[07:20] Koy
    Well, anyway, I'll go tell Madoka...
[07:24] Kaz
    Hey, Koyori!
[07:28] Ui
    They're gone.
[07:31] Dai
    It looks like things just
     got a little more interesting.
[07:34] Kaz
    You can say that again.
[07:39] ibu
    What then?
[07:40] ibu
    You made me trek out here in this god awful heat,
[07:43] ---
    so this better be good.
[07:45] Ui
    That's right!
[07:46] Ui
    If it's boring, then it better be
    cold, sweet, and delicious!
[07:49] Dai
    Please keep your complaints
[07:51] ---
    and the review of the parfait separate.
[07:54] Kaz
    Daigo, don't forget why we're here.
[07:57] Dai
    You're right.
[07:59] Dai
    We wanted to talk to you
[08:01] ---
    about setting up my
     bro and Madoka.
[08:04] Dai
    We'd really appreciate it
     if you guys assisted.
[08:06] Dai
    I mean, Madoka is a really shy girl
[08:09] Dai
    and even my big-city bro is pretty naive
[08:11] ---
    and lost around these parts,
[08:14] Dai
    so we were thinking
[08:16] ---
    us friends of theirs could
    play a little Cupid and...
[08:18] ibu
    This is idiotic.
[08:19] Dai
    What?
[08:20] Dai
    Hinata, you're against it?
[08:22] ibu
    I'm not for or against it,
[08:23] ---
    I just don't see why I have to
    get involved in the first place.
[08:26] Dai
    What do you mean, "why"?
[08:27] Dai
    Because they're your friends!
[08:29] Dai
    Can't you do this little thing for your friends?
[08:32] ibu
    Whatever. I'm not helping you.
[08:35] Ui
    Ibuki!
[08:48] Ui
    Wait, Ibuki, wait!!
[08:57] Ui
    What's wrong?
[08:59] Ui
    You're not acting like yourself at all!
[09:02] ibu
    Are you okay with this, Ui?
[09:06] ibu
    Him and Madoka getting together?
[09:09] Ui
    Well, I...
[09:12] Ui
    I mean, to me,
[09:15] ---
    Kazu is like an older brother.
[09:18] Ui
    So... well...
[09:25] ibu
    Fine.
[09:27] ibu
    If that's how you feel, then fine.
[09:30] Ui
    Ibuki?
[09:33] mado
    You want me to go out with Kazuma?!
[09:36] Kaz
    That's right!
[09:37] Kaz
    We've discussed it with Daigo,
[09:39] ---
    and we've all decided
    to support your love!
[09:42] mado
    L-L-L-love?!
[09:44] Koy
    We've got a really good plan,
[09:46] ---
    so the whole thing is smooth sailing!
[09:50] Kaz
    We've invited Hoshino under the pretense
[09:53] ---
    of going to the amusement park together.
[09:55] Kaz
    Right before, we'll all call and say
[09:57] ---
    that something came up
     and we have to cancel.
[09:59] Kaz
    Then you'll be free to
     go on a date with him.
[10:02] mado
    A d-d-d-date?!

    detailed instructions in here.

    nor Koyori, nor Kasane can come.
[10:45] mado
    It's sure strange!
[10:47] mado
    I wonder what's going on...
[10:49] Dai
    Ui and Ibuki had something planned
[10:51] ---
    so they didn't bother inviting them.

    Ayumu has another sketching

    We might as well have

    Hey...
[11:15] Koy
    That's good,

    but did I really have to come dressed like this?

    Of course you did!

    Daigo and I are wearing disguises,

    so you have got to wear one too.

    What ride do you want

[11:43] mado
    Hmm, let me think.
[11:45] ---
    Umm...
[11:47] mado
    The Dating Guidebook told me
SIGN    1. Roller Coaster
[11:49] ---
    to go on the roller coaster first...
[11:53] mado
    I think I'd like to try the roller coaster first...

    That's a surprise.
[12:00] Kaz
    I would've thought you
    wouldn't like these kinds of rides.
[12:03] mado
    Oh no, I like them just fine.
[12:09] Kaz
    You're doing great, Koumoto!
[12:11] Kaz
    First you get the mood up by
[12:13] ---
    going on the roller
    coaster and screaming wildly.
[12:16] Kaz
    That will make it easier
    to talk to each other.
[12:26] mado
    Make it stop!
[12:27] mado
    Make it stop! Let me off!

    This is delicious!

    Wow!

    It sure is high at the top!

    I had a lot of fun today, Madoka.

    Yeah, me too.

    Next time, we should

    Madoka doesn't look too happy.
[15:19] Dai
    That's why little kids don't get it.
[15:21] Koy
    What was that?!
[15:22] Koy
    What do you mean, Daigoro?
[15:24] Dai
    Looks to me like they are enjoying
[15:26] ---
    that subtle and softly burning
[15:27] ---
    embarrassment that comes after a kiss.
[15:31] Koy
    You're saying that Kazuma and Madoka kissed?!
[15:33] Dai
    I think so.
[15:34] Koy
    So now what?!
[15:36] Koy
    Are they going to get married?

    Umm... aren't you rushing things a bit?
[15:40] Koy
    But, but... they kissed!
[15:42] Koy
    They're going to have a baby!
[15:44] Koy
    Then they have to get married quickly!
[15:50] Koy
    What?
[15:51] Koy
    What's so funny?
[15:52] Koy
    This is no laughing matter!
[16:20] mado
    Kazuma?
[16:27] Kaz
    Madoka?! Your clothes...
[16:29] mado
    I felt like wearing something different,
[16:32] ---
    so I borrowed this from Koyori...
[16:34] mado
    You don't like it?
[16:36] Kaz
    No! That's not it at all!
[16:39] Kaz
    I was just surprised,
    because you looked different...
[16:41] Kaz
    So how come you invited me
[16:44] ---
    to go hiking with you all alone?
[16:47] mado
    Well, I...
[16:51] mado
    That's our bus!
SIGN    Inner Yamabiko
[16:55] mado
    I'm so glad we made it!
[16:57] mado
    If we missed this bus,
     we'd really be waiting a long time.
[17:01] Kaz
    Yeah.
[17:14] Kaz
    So this is the mountain path
    Ayumu was talking about.
[17:17] mado
    It's actually not much
     more than a hiking trail.
[17:20] mado
    Even a child could easily walk up here.
[17:22] mado
    I used to walk it myself all the
    time when I was a little girl.
[17:27] Kaz
    Wow, really?
[17:37] Kaz
    This is...
[17:42] mado
    Kazuma, hurry up!
[17:45] kaz
    Okay.
[17:56] mado
    I'll make us a spot here.
[18:07] Kaz
    Got it!
[18:28] Kaz
    Wait... were you that
     girl from way back then?
[18:40] mado
    I'd never really gotten along with boys
[18:43] mado
    so I didn't have anyone to
    play with in our neighborhood,
[18:45] ---
    and I'd just come here by myself.
[18:49] mado
    One day, I was up here again
     and this boy came over
[18:53] ---
    and started to play with me.
[18:55] mado
    He was different somehow from
    all the neighborhood boys.
[18:59] mado
    He was so nice and wonderful.
[19:02] ---
    He made me think of a prince.
[19:08] mado
    We only played together that once,
[19:11] ---
    but I never could forget him.
[19:14] mado
    I've replayed that time in my mind
[19:18] ---
    over and over again,
    until it felt like
[19:20] mado
    we really had played together all the time.
[19:27] mado
    Thinking about it now,
[19:29] ---
    I'm wondering if it might
    have been love at first sight.
[19:34] Kaz
    You could've just told
    me the first time we met.
[19:38] mado
    You're right.
[19:40] mado
    I should've,
[19:41] ---
    but the first time we met at my temple,
[19:44] ---
    it was so sudden, and after that,
[19:46] mado
    I just didn't know what to do anymore.
[19:49] Kaz
    I guess lots of things started happening
[19:51] ---
    and the time was never right.
[19:55] mado
    I guess that was one reason,
[19:56] ---
    but I think I was hoping that
[19:58] mado
    I wouldn't have to say anything.
[19:59] ---
    That you would remember
    it and mention it yourself.
[20:05] mado
    I had been thinking
    about you for so long
[20:07] mado
    that I hoped, on some small level,
[20:09] ---
    even if it was only a one-hundredth
    or a one-thousandth of all that,
[20:12] mado
    you'd remember me yourself.
[20:16] mado
    I wanted to think I had a place inside you,
[20:19] ---
    however small it may be.
[20:23] mado
    Even this outfit...
[20:24] ---
    I picked it because I had
    worn something like it that day.
[20:27] mado
    I was hoping you might
    remember if you saw it.

    I'm sorry.
[20:31] Kaz
    I had no idea you thought
     about me like this.
[20:34] Kaz
    I mean, I was a little kid
    when that all happened.
[20:38] Kaz
    I'm sure I had asked your name, but I'd forgotten.
[20:40] Kaz
    And then, your hair was
    short back then and you've...
[20:44] ---
    changed a lot since then.
[20:51] mado
    It's fine.
[20:52] mado
    It's enough for me that
    you remembered at all.
[20:57] Kaz
    Madoka, I...
[20:58] mado
    I know.
[21:00] ---
    I know how you feel.
[21:08] mado
    Kazuma, do you remember
[21:11] ---
    what you said to me that day,
[21:13] ---
    when we were saying our goodbyes?
[21:16] Kaz
    Madoka...
[21:19] mado
    Will you say it to me again?
[21:39] mado
    This is weird, isn't it?
[21:41] mado
    It's not like we won't
    see each other again.
[21:43] mado
    And here I am, crying...
[21:49] Kaz
    That's right, Madoka.
[21:52] Kaz
    We'll always be friends.
