[00:00] Satomura
    I'm begging you!
[00:02] Satomura
    All you have to do is introduce me.
[00:04] Satomura
    I really want to be friends with Hananoi-kun!
[00:10] Hotaru
    Wha—?
SIGN    Episode 5
SIGN    Our First Date
[01:45] Hibiki
    Yeah, she 100 percent has ulterior motives!
[01:48] Hotaru
    Do you really think so?
[01:50] Hotaru
    This doesn't usually happen,
    so I'd totally forgotten
[01:54] Hotaru
    how popular Hananoi-kun is with girls.
[01:57] Hibiki
    I mean, he's always so cold at school
    that it makes him hard to approach.
[02:03] Tsukiha
    You know, the girls in my club say he's
    a "look but don't touch" kind of hottie.
[02:10] Hotaru
    Come to think of it,
[02:12] Hotaru
    I've never seen Hananoi-kun
    with any friends before.
[02:17] Hotaru
    If that's all she really wants,
    maybe it would be good.
[02:22] Hotaru
    And I'm not officially dating him,
    so I have no right to keep her away.
[02:26] Hananoi
    Hotaru-chan, is something wrong?
[02:29] Hananoi
    You've hardly touched your lunch.
[02:32] Hotaru
    I-I'm okay!
[02:38] Hotaru
    U-Um, this might be an odd question,
    but how would you feel about making a friend?
[02:46] Hananoi
    What? Did Kurata say something to you?
[02:48] Hotaru
    Huh? Keigo-kun?
[02:51] Hananoi
    Guess not.
[02:52] Hotaru
    Did something happen between you two?
[02:55] Hananoi
    No, nothing at all.
[02:58] Hananoi
    But friends, huh? I don't think I need any.
[03:01] Hananoi
    I'm actually trying not
    to make friends right now.
[03:04] Hotaru
    Huh? Why?
[03:05] Hananoi
    Hmm... Well, for example, let's say
    there's some kind of major disaster.
[03:11] Hananoi
    The first people everyone worries about
    are their relatives and lovers, right?
[03:17] Hananoi
    Friends don't really rank that high,
[03:20] Hananoi
    so wasting your feelings on them takes away
     from the people you really care about,
[03:26] Hananoi
    I think.
[03:27] Hotaru
    Do you... really feel that way?
[03:30] Hananoi
    I'm good just holding one person truly dear.
[03:34] Hananoi
    I've only got two hands, after all.
[03:39] Hotaru
    Hananoi-kun sure has
    an unusual approach to things...
[03:43] Hotaru
    But he was so clear
    about not wanting friends.
[03:51] Hotaru
    Turning Satomura-san down
    might make things rocky.
[03:56] Non-chan
    I think I like Sohei-kun.
    Hotaru-chan, will you help me out?
[04:02] Hotaru
    Awkward...
[04:05] Hotaru
    Man, I guess this is another side
    to what dating's like.
[04:09] Kagari
    Hotaru?
[04:11] Kagari
    Did you remove all the strings?
[04:12] Hotaru
    Sis...
[04:14] Hotaru
    No! Master!
[04:17] Kagari
    U-Uh...
[04:20] Kagari
    So basically, a coworker asked you
    to introduce your so-called "trial" boyfriend.
[04:25] Kagari
    But you don't want to pressure him,
[04:28] Kagari
    or make things awkward at work either.
[04:31] Kagari
    You sure are growing up.
[04:33] Hotaru
    How do I make it all work out?
[04:37] Kagari
    You don't.
[04:39] Kagari
    You can't live without
    hurting people sometimes.
[04:42] Kagari
    You've got to decide
    who's most important to you.
[04:46] Hotaru
    That's like what Hananoi-kun said.
[04:49] Hotaru
    I knew you'd help, Master!
[04:51] Kagari
    I mean, not that I've ever had a boyfriend.
[04:57] Hotaru
    I'll tell her no before
    I start my shift today.
[05:00] Hotaru
    Not a great feeling...
[05:02] Hananoi
    You seem really down lately.
[05:05] Hotaru
    N-No, I'm fine! It's just, today...
[05:09] Hotaru
    Y'know, it's colder up here than normal, isn't it?
[05:12] Hananoi
    You might be right.
[05:16] Hotaru
    The door's open.
[05:18] Hananoi
    The person on safety checks must
    have forgotten to close it.
[05:21] Hananoi
    We could go out on the roof.
[05:23] Hotaru
    Th-The roof?!
[05:26] Hotaru
    Wow! Hananoi-kun, Hananoi-kun!
    This is awesome!
[05:42] Hananoi
    I'm glad you're having so much fun.
[05:44] Hotaru
    I might never get to do this again.
[05:47] Hotaru
    But...
[05:51] Hotaru
    B-Breaking the rules
     is pretty exciting, isn't it?
[05:56] Hananoi
    You're an awfully good girl, Hotaru-chan.
[06:03] Hotaru
    Huh?
[06:08] Hananoi
    It won't open. It must be locked.
[06:11] Hotaru
    Huh?!
[06:12] Hotaru
    Did somebody notice it was open?
[06:14] Hananoi
    Probably. But it's okay.
    We have our phones on us.
[06:19] Hotaru
    Still...
[06:26] Hotaru
    Class has started.
SIGN    I know you're in class. Sorry!
    I'm on the roof right now.
    The door seems to be locked from the inside.
    Could you come open it for me?
[06:32] Hotaru
    I just messaged Kyo-chan
    and Shibamu for help.
[06:41] Hotaru
    Wait! Why are you slowly undressing?!
[06:45] Hananoi
    I was going to let you borrow this.
[06:47] Hotaru
    Of course you were!
    But you shouldn't do that!
[06:50] Hananoi
    But under the circumstances...
[06:57] Hananoi
    I'll be fine, so you should wear my cardigan.
[07:00] Hotaru
    You'll freeze, then, Hananoi-kun!
[07:03] Hotaru
    Oh, I know!
[07:05] Hotaru
    Like this!
[07:10] Hotaru
    Actually, this probably isn't the way...
[07:16] Hotaru
    A-Anyway, realistically speaking,
    this should be warmest, so let's stick it out.
[07:22] Hananoi
    As long as you're okay with it.
[07:26] Hotaru
    I'm sorry. This is my fault for
    wanting to come out on the roof.
[07:31] Hananoi
    Don't worry about that.
[07:33] Hotaru
    If nobody notices,
    will we die of exposure up here?!
[07:38] Hananoi
    We'll be fine. I promise we will.
[07:43] Hananoi
    You didn't do anything wrong, Hotaru-chan.
[07:47] Hananoi
    Relax.
[07:54] Hotaru
    I'm sorry.
[07:57] Hananoi
    Look, I'm sure we'll be fine, but if you
    think we're dying anyway, would you tell me?
[08:04] Hananoi
    What's had you so worried lately?
[08:06] Hotaru
    Huh?
[08:07] Hotaru
    Uh...
[08:07] Hananoi
    You haven't been finishing your lunch.
[08:10] Hananoi
    And you always have two croquettes
    after school, but you only ate one yesterday.
[08:14] Hotaru
    He's been watching me like a hawk!
[08:16] Hotaru
    M-Maybe it's my imagination, but... is he mad?
[08:23] Hananoi
    Sorry. You don't have to tell me.
[08:28] Hananoi
    I just always want you to be happy.
[08:35] Hotaru
    I can literally feel
    how worried he is about me.
[08:40] Hotaru
    He's so warm.
[08:42] Hotaru
    How could I upset someone
    who thinks about me so much?
[08:48] Hotaru
    I'm sorry, Hananoi-kun.
[08:50] Hotaru
    Um, to tell you the truth...
[08:54] Hananoi
    Oh boy. Is that all?
[08:57] Hotaru
    "Is that all"?!
[08:58] Hananoi
    I'll go turn her down myself.
[09:01] Hananoi
    It'd be tough for you if things
     got awkward at work, right?
[09:05] Hotaru
    So it's settled just like that? I guess so...
[09:09] Hotaru
    Huh. So I didn't need to get
    so worked up about it.
[09:16] Hotaru
    I'm so relieved!
[09:19] Hananoi
    I'm glad. You're back to normal now.
[09:24] Hotaru
    Are you okay? You can hold on to me tighter!
[09:26] Hananoi
    No, I'm fine. Any closer would be...
     I don't know. A bad idea.
[09:36] Hotaru
    D-Don't worry. The occasion calls for it.
[09:40] Hotaru
    And your promise not to touch me...
    Can we call that off now?
[09:48] Hotaru
    Hananoi-kun's heart is beating really fast.
[09:52] Hotaru
    I don't know why, but that's making
    me so happy right now.
[09:58] Hotaru
    I-I'll tell Satomura-san myself.
[10:03] Hotaru
    With his body heat warming me,
    I feel like I can face anything.
[10:08] Hotaru
    I know whose feelings I value more now.
[10:12] Hotaru
    It'll be fine.
[10:19] Hananoi
    Bad move.
[10:21] Hananoi
    Do you realize what you just said?
[10:26] Hananoi
    I'm not gonna let you go now.
[10:34] Hibiki
    Hotaru! Are you alive?!
[10:36] Hibiki
    Huh? That's weird.
[10:39] Hotaru
    H-Hello? Over here. We're over here!
[10:43] Hananoi
    There she is!
[10:44] Hananoi
    Are you okay?
[10:46] Hotaru
    I-I'm glad you saw my message.
[10:48] Hibiki
    We had a free study period.
    Oh, I'm so relieved!
[10:52] Tsukiha
    You know, the door wasn't
    actually locked, though.
[10:55] Hotaru
    Huh?
[10:57] Hotaru
    Ah...
[10:59] Hananoi
    Sorry about that. I wanted some
    time to talk to you alone.
[11:04] Hananoi
    I wish we could've stayed
    just a little longer, though. Too bad.
[11:08] Hotaru
    Wh-Wh-What? Whaaat?!
[11:12] Hotaru
    I'm sorry, but that's why I
    can't introduce you to him!
[11:16] Satomura
    Are you for real? That beautiful
    vision is your boyfriend?
[11:20] Satomura
    Hota-chan, you're amazing!
[11:22] Hotaru
    Huh?
[11:23] Satomura
    Oh, wait. Did you think I liked
    Hananoi-kun or something?
[11:27] Satomura
    I'm sorry I gave you the wrong idea!
    He just looks like my fave idol!
[11:32] Hotaru
    Y-Your fave?
[11:33] Satomura
    Yeah! Takahiko-kun from the super
    popular idol group VERSUS!
[11:36] Satomura
    See, see?! Isn't he a dead ringer?!
[11:38] Satomura
    If he grew out his hair a little,
     he'd be perfect!
[11:41] Satomura
    When I first saw Hananoi-kun,
    I thought it was fate!
[11:42] Hotaru
    That's what this is about?
[11:45] Hotaru
    Thank you very much.
[11:47] Hotaru
    I'm glad Satomura-san doesn't actually
    have a crush on Hananoi-kun.
[11:52] Hotaru
    Wait.
[11:55] Hotaru
    What is this feeling? Relief?
[12:00] Hotaru
    Wanting to see him smile,
    wanting to touch him,
[12:04] Hotaru
    worrying about other girls liking him...
[12:09] Hotaru
    Is this love? Is that what love is?
[12:12] Hibiki
    Of course it's love!
[12:14] Tsukiha
    Why would you think it isn't?
[12:17] Hotaru
    To love is to think about someone
    more than anyone else, right?
[12:22] Hotaru
    I think I might like Hananoi-kun,
    but I like you guys just as much.
[12:31] Hotaru
    I guess I'm just not sure yet.
[12:33] Hibiki
    Ahem. Listen, love is different for everyone.
[12:37] Hibiki
    If you think it's love, then it is love!
[12:42] Hotaru
    Kyo-chan, you're so cool!
[12:45] Hibiki
    If you're with me, then go try this on.
    You have a date tomorrow, right?
[12:53] Hotaru
    Maybe this is a little too cute for me.
[12:56] Hotaru
    Everyone is different...
    Everyone is different, right?
[13:00] Hotaru
    Okay!
[13:06] Hotaru
    Hananoi-kun!
[13:08] Hotaru
    Thanks for waiting!
[13:10] Hotaru
    S-Sorry I'm late.
[13:14] Hananoi
    It's fine. Are you okay?
[13:16] Hotaru
    I stayed up late looking stuff up
     and then overslept.
[13:21] Hananoi
    Don't worry about it.
[13:22] Hananoi
    I was so excited about today, I didn't
     sleep a wink since the day before.
[13:25] Hotaru
    Not one wink since the day before?!
[13:28] Hananoi
    We're seeing a movie, right? Let's get going.
[13:31] Hotaru
    Okay.
[13:32] Hotaru
    W-Wait, hold on. I said that I was
    going to escort you today.
[13:38] Hotaru
    Let's go, Hananoi-kun.
[13:49] Hotaru
    Switch gears, switch gears!
[13:51] Hotaru
    For the morning, we'll catch a movie
    before having lunch at this place.
[13:54] Hotaru
    After browsing at the station building,
    we can grab a snack and take pictures.
SIGN    If we get stuck, go to the station
    It has lots of shops, so it'll be easy to kill time
    Browse clothes and products to figure out what he's into
    
    At karaoke, pick songs we both know
    It'll be fun for both of us if we sing together
    
    The place Kyo-chan recommended...
[13:58] Hotaru
    Great. For a beginner like me,
    this plan is foolproof!
[14:03] Hananoi
    Hold on a second.
[14:09] Hananoi
    You look really cute today, Hotaru-chan.
[14:14] Hotaru
    H-He noticed that I look different today.
[14:24] Hotaru
    The book Hananoi-kun was reading got made
    into a film. I thought it'd be perfect.
[14:33] Hotaru
    But it's one of those movies where
    a bunch of people get killed!
[14:51] Hananoi
    Just close your eyes
    during the scary scenes.
[14:56] Hotaru
    I'm so scared and so excited that I
    can't concentrate on the movie one bit!
[15:05] Hotaru
    I-I totally blew it.
    I couldn't follow the movie at all.
[15:09] Hotaru
    And I wanted for us
    to talk about it afterward!
[15:13] Hananoi
    Hotaru-chan, are you okay?
    That was pretty scary.
[15:18] Hotaru
    I-I'm okay! Just a little shocked
    since I don't usually watch this genre.
[15:23] Hotaru
    But I thought the story was really...
     really, uh, interesting.
[15:27] Hananoi
    Why don't we go get lunch now?
[15:30] Hotaru
    Lunch? Sure! I already picked out a place.
SIGN    The place Kyo-chan recommended:
    Italian restaurant "Renoge"
    Interior and food both look really fancy—worth the price!
    Has large servings, so boys should like it too.
    Careful! Sometimes there's a line for lunch.
SIGN    Temporarily Closed
[15:43] Hananoi
    W-We'll come again another time. Okay?
[15:47] Hotaru
    I'm sorry, Hananoi-kun.
[15:50] Hananoi
    For what? It's okay. Things never
    work out perfectly the first time.
[15:57] Hananoi
    More importantly, you put so much
    thought into planning today for me.
[16:02] Hananoi
    That makes me really happy.
[16:04] Hotaru
    Hananoi-kun...
[16:05] Hananoi
    Hey, over there. Isn't that the restaurant
    you said you wanted to try before?
[16:36] Hotaru
    Here! To commemorate today.
[16:41] Hananoi
    I bought one too.
[16:48] Hotaru
    We picked the same thing!
[16:54] Hotaru
    I wasn't a very good escort at all.
[16:57] Hananoi
    I still had a whole lot of fun, though.
[16:59] Hotaru
    I had fun too! Thanks to your help.
[17:04] Hotaru
    And it was very educational.
[17:07] Hotaru
    You don't have to stick to a plan.
    Just find things to enjoy together.
[17:12] Hotaru
    Dates sure are fun!
[17:15] Ex-Girlfriend A
    Dates with you are always so weird.
[17:17] Ex-Girlfriend B
    Sorry, but you're scaring me.
[17:20] Hotaru
    Dates sure are fun!
[17:33] Hotaru
    Thanks for walking me home.
[17:37] Hotaru
    Oh, isn't this...
[17:39] Hananoi
    The place where we first met.
[17:44] Hotaru
    This park is really close
    to my elementary school,
[17:47] Hotaru
    so I used to play here a lot as a kid.
[17:50] Hotaru
    Come to think of it, why were you here that
     day? It's pretty far from the cafe...
[17:58] Hananoi
    Were you actually at the
    cafe then too, Hotaru-chan?
[18:01] Hotaru
    Mm-hmm.
[18:02] Hananoi
    No wonder. That's why you
     offered me your umbrella.
[18:05] Hotaru
    Well, I was kind of worried
    it was none of my business.
[18:11] Hananoi
    I wandered around in a daze
    and suddenly found myself here.
[18:16] Hananoi
    I was pretty depressed that day.
[18:23] Hananoi
    That's why...
[18:26] Hananoi
    Hotaru-chan,
[18:29] Hananoi
    you're my hero.
[18:35] Hananoi
    I'm so happy.
[18:39] Hananoi
    Ever since I met you here, I've been in bliss.
[18:46] Hananoi
    It almost scares me.
[18:48] Hotaru
    Hananoi-kun...
[18:51] Elementary School Student A
    Bam!
[18:59] Hotaru
    Hananoi-kun? Hananoi-kun?
[19:03] Hotaru
    Are you awake?
[19:11] Hananoi
    Was I unconscious?
[19:14] Hotaru
    Just for a little bit. Are you okay?
     Want to rest at my place?
[19:19] Hananoi
    No, I'm fine.
[19:22] Hananoi
    Instead, I want to stay
    like this a little longer.
[19:27] Hotaru
    It probably wasn't good that
    he didn't get any sleep.
[19:30] Hotaru
    And then I tired him out
    by making him walk so much.
[19:45] Hotaru
    You tried to protect me, didn't you?
[19:48] Hotaru
    Thank you.
[19:50] Hotaru
    But don't go overboard, okay?
[19:53] Hotaru
    I've been worried about that
    part of you ever since we met.
[19:58] Hotaru
    You don't need to throw yourself
    in front of danger for me.
[20:02] Hananoi
    But...
[20:07] Hananoi
    Even if I study hard and play sports,
    even if I'm as kind as I can be,
[20:12] Hananoi
    in the end, everyone always
    chooses someone else over me.
[20:17] Hananoi
    The only thing I have left to give...
[20:21] Hananoi
    is myself.
[20:25] Hotaru
    That's not true. That's not true!
[20:29] Hotaru
    Even if you don't go that far,
    there are people who'd stand by you.
[20:34] Hotaru
    Like... Like me.
[20:37] Hotaru
    I like the way the time passes
    so peacefully when I'm with you.
[20:41] Hotaru
    I like the way you seem to be good at
    everything, but you actually aren't perfect.
[20:46] Hotaru
    I like the way you're kind to those in need.
[20:50] Hotaru
    I like the way you're always
    so honest about your feelings.
[20:54] Hotaru
    You don't need to sacrifice yourself like that.
[20:58] Hotaru
    I really, really like you, Hananoi-kun!
[21:05] Hananoi
    Do you mean it...?
[21:09] Hananoi
    If I'd be so happy if that's true.
[21:22] Hotaru
    Does he understand my feelings for him now?
[21:26] Hotaru
    They're so hard to put into words.
[21:29] Hotaru
    But thank you. Every time you tell me you
    like me, it gives me a lot of strength.
[21:38] Hotaru
    I want to be able to do that
    for Hananoi-kun too.
[21:44] Hotaru
    I want to be of help to him.
[21:46] Hotaru
    I don't want him to smile
    like he's sad inside.
[21:49] Hotaru
    I want to see him smile like
    he's really, truly happy.
[21:55] Hotaru
    Oh...
[21:58] Hotaru
    Is this love?
[22:02] Hotaru
    Hey,
[22:07] Hotaru
    Hananoi-kun...

[22:36] Hotaru

[22:48] Hotaru
    I...
[22:50] Hotaru
    really like you!
