[00:01] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    "Sure thing."
[00:03] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    How do I say that in sign language?
[00:12] Yuki
    Ever since that day,
    the more I think back to Itsuomi-san,
[00:17] Yuki
    the more this powdery, pearly white
    emotion piles up deep inside my heart.
[00:28] Yuki
    It keeps happening, even now.
[00:36] Yukimom
    Sorry to interrupt your little daydream, but...
[00:39] Yukimom
    Are you okay on time?
[00:43] Yuki
    I'm not okay... in any way.
SIGN    To Affection
[02:28] Rin
    Good for you, Yuki. You got his deets!
[02:32] [Messenger] Sign
    Thanks for last night,
    Rin-chan.
[02:33] Rin
    Oh, c'mon! It was nothing!
[02:36] Rin
    Anyway, were you nervous when you asked?
[02:40] Rin
    You sure were, huh?
[02:42] Yuki
    Just being around him
    makes me nervous already.
[02:46] [Messenger] Sign
    Yeah, it's huge
[02:46] [Messenger] Sign
    Let me in yours, Yuki
[02:46] Yuki
    On top of that, he gave me the
    biggest surprise of my life so far...
[02:52] Yuki
    I keep going back to look at it.
[02:57] [Messenger] Sign
    The reason I suggested
    we meet up at this place
[02:59] [Messenger] Sign
    is because our Cultural Exchange Club
    often gathers around here.
[03:00] Yuki
    "Our Cultural Exchange Club"...
[03:08] Itsuomi
    That was quite nice.
[03:10] Girl A
    Then let's go together next time!
[03:12] Itsuomi
    Yeah. Well...
[03:14] Yuki
    Itsuomi-san.
[03:17] Rin
    There he goes, surrounded by hot girls again.
[03:20] Rin
    But wait! There were some boys
    around until a moment ago, too!
[03:28] Yuki
    The girls he's talking to are so pretty.
    Maybe they have parents from overseas?
[03:33] Yuki
    The way his mouth is moving...
    He's probably not speaking Japanese.
[03:38] [Messenger] Sign
    Yeah, it's huge
[03:38] [Messenger] Sign
    Let me in yours, Yuki
[03:39] Yuki
    Did he send me that because
    he doesn't meet many deaf people,
[03:42] Yuki
    intending it to be some kind of
    cultural exchange?
[03:47] Yuki
    Even if he did, I'm glad he's entered my life.
[03:54] Rin
    Oh...
[03:55] Rin
    He's leaving.
[04:03] Rin
    Itsuomi-san!
[04:15] Yuki
    Huh?
[04:26] Yuki
    The thought of making
    eye contact makes me squee.
[04:33] Yuki
    Whoa, he's totally looking at me.
[04:39] Yuki
    No...
[04:41] Yuki
    I shouldn't look away.
[04:48] Itsuomi
    Aren't you gonna do this stuff today?
[04:51] Yuki
    So embarrassing!
[04:54] Yuki
    Uh...
[05:11] [Messenger] Sign
    Notes
[05:12] Yuki
    I need to type.
[05:20] Yuki
    He's always so in my face!
[05:23] [Messenger] Sign
    Notes
[05:23] [Messenger] Sign
    Done
[05:23] [Messenger] Sign
    I do want to,
    but we're at college right now.
[05:26] Itsuomi
    Huh...
[05:29] Itsuomi
    Wow, you're cute.
[05:30] Yuki
    Huh?
[05:31] Yuki
    Did he just call me c-cute?
[05:35] Yuki
    I didn't misread his lips, right?
[05:38] Itsuomi
    Oh, I gotta go. It's time for my flight.
[05:42] Yuki
    Flight?!
[05:44] Yuki
    Where's he going this time?
[05:47] Yuki
    Ma... o... u...?
[05:51] Yuki
    The Demon Lord?
[05:53] Yuki
    La... Oh, it was "La."
[05:57] Yuki
    O... u...?
[06:03] [Messenger] Sign
    Message
[06:03] [Messenger] Sign
    Now
[06:03] [Messenger] Sign
    Going to Laos for a bit
[06:04] Yuki
    Laos!
[06:14] Rin
    You two seem to be hitting it off.
[06:18] Rin
    You seem so happy when you're with Itsuomi-san.
[06:21] Rin
    It's like you're totally in love.
[06:23] [Messenger] Sign
    I'm just crushing!
[06:25] Rin
    What?!
[06:27] Rin
    But you seemed different from yesterday.
[06:29] Rin
    You were glowing!
[06:31] Yuki
    "Different from yesterday"?
[06:34] Yuki
    Was I really?
[06:37] Yuki
    Wait, what's the difference
    between love and crushing, anyway?
[06:45] Rin
    Hey, Yuki.
[06:47] Rin
    Look up there.
[06:50] Rin
    Your childhood friend's looking this way.
[06:54] Yuki
    Oushi-kun.
[06:58] [SONG] Sign
    Who was that?
SIGN    Who was that?
[07:01] Yuki
    He saw that, huh?
[07:03] [SONG] Sign
    A friend, why?
SIGN    A friend, why?
[07:06] [SONG] Sign
    You don't say...
SIGN    You don't say...
[07:08] [SONG] Sign
    What are you up to?
SIGN    What are you up to?
[07:10] [SONG] Sign
    Not much.
SIGN    Not much.
[07:17] Yuki
    I wonder what they're talking about.
[07:19] Yuki
    I can't read people's lips from the side.
[07:23] Batayan
    Huh... You're friends with those girls, Oushi?
[07:27] Batayan
    They're cute. Invite them to a boozer sometime.
[07:30] Oushi
    The one with the longer hair is deaf.
[07:33] Batayan
    Oh? How deaf?
[07:36] Oushi
    Completely.
[07:37] Batayan
    Oh...
[07:43] Batayan
    Can hearing aids help with that?
[07:45] Oushi
    She uses them already.
    Still can't pick up any sounds.
[07:53] Batayan
    That sounds too complicated for me, but okay.
[07:56] Batayan
    See you later, Oushi.
[07:57] Oushi
    See ya.
[08:03] [SONG] Sign
    What?
SIGN    What?
[08:07] Yuki
    He ignored me.
[08:11] [Messenger] Sign
    Your childhood friend
    can speak sign language?
    That's amazing.
[08:14] [Messenger] Sign
    All he does is say
    mean things to me in sign.
[08:16] [Messenger] Sign
    Huh...
[08:18] Rin
    But... He actually learned it, huh?
SIGN    Rin
SIGN    Your childhood friend
    can speak sign language?
    That's amazing.
SIGN    Chats
SIGN    Search
SIGN     Do you want souvenirs?
    Or do you not?
SIGN    Rin
SIGN    Huh...
[08:24] Yuki
    Itsuomi-san...
[08:32] Rin
    See? Your face really is glowing again.
[08:39] [Messenger] Sign
    Which do you think it is?
[08:41] [Messenger] Sign
    I can't tell the difference
    between crushing
    and being in love...
[08:44] [Messenger] Sign
    Rin-chan, you said you were
    crushing on the boss, right?
[08:47] [Messenger] Sign
    Oh, about that...
[08:49] Rin
    After seeing him last night,
    I'm all in "I love him" mode!
[08:52] Yuki
    You are?!
[08:53] Rin
    I mean, he's so nice.
[08:59] Rin
    If you can't tell which it is,
    why don't you just pick one?
[09:05] [Messenger] Sign
    I'm allowed to decide for myself?
[09:07] [Messenger] Sign
    Yep <3
SIGN    I want souvenirs. Take care,
     and have fun on your trip!
SIGN    Going to Laos for a bit
SIGN    Do you want souvenirs?
    Or do you not?
[09:17] [Messenger] Sign
    I want souvenirs. Take care,
     and have fun on your trip!
[09:19] Yuki
    If I can decide which I am—
[09:22] Yuki
    in love with him, or just crushing...
[09:40] Stationstaff
    Sir!
[09:41] Stationstaff
    Hey, sir!
[10:03] Izumi
    Oushi.
[10:08] Oushi
    Izumi.
[10:11] Izumi
    I guess you can be a good Samaritan at times.
[10:14] Oushi
    Wha?
[10:16] Izumi
    That's the first time I've seen you use sign
    language with anyone other than Yuki-san.
[10:20] Oushi
    Oh, really?
[10:23] Izumi
    Life must be difficult for the deaf.
[10:27] Oushi
    Yeah.
[10:28] Izumi
    If it weren't for you, that guy might
    have been mistaken for a fare evader.
[10:38] Oushi
    I guess.
[10:40] Oushi
    It's easier to put yourself
    in danger when you can't hear.
[10:46] Oushi
    So maybe they should stay
    where they're safe and not leave...
[11:14] Yuki
    I wonder where Itsuomi-san is right now
    and what he's doing.
[11:27] Yuki
    Is it just a crush, or could it be love... huh?
[11:45] Yuki
    What? It's from Itsuomi-san!
[11:55] Yuki
    Wow.
[11:57] Yuki
    I'd never heard of such a place.
[12:02] Yuki
    They're cute!
[12:05] Yuki
    I had no idea...
[12:07] Yuki
    I'd never seen any of this before.
[12:12] Yuki
    Itsuomi-san...
[12:14] Yuki
    What kind of place
    is the one you're in right now?
[12:17] Yuki
    What kind of sights does it have,
[12:20] Yuki
    and what kind of times can you spend there?
[12:23] Yuki
    Are you not scared
    to set foot in unfamiliar worlds?
[12:37] [Messenger] Sign
    These pics look so good!
[12:38] [Messenger] Sign
    These pics look so good!
[12:42] [Messenger] Sign
    I'm staying in a
    run-down $7 inn
    tonight. The Wi-Fi's
    so slow.
[12:43] Yuki
    Seven dollars?!
[12:45] Yuki
    Some place to stay.
[12:49] [Messenger] Sign
    Gonna sleep. Later.
[12:49] [Messenger] Sign
    I'm staying in a
    run-down $7 inn
    tonight. The Wi-Fi's
    so slow.
[12:50] Yuki
    He's so whimsical...
[12:52] [Messenger] Sign
    Oh.
[12:52] [Messenger] Sign
    Gonna sleep. Later.
[12:55] [Messenger] Sign
    Oh.
[12:55] [Messenger] Sign
    I'll be at college
    the day after tomorrow.
[12:57] Yuki
    He's coming back. Will I see him then?
[13:29] Yuki
    I left home early.
[13:35] Yuki
    Is that...
[13:40] Yuki
    Itsuomi-san!
[13:51] Yuki
    "Good morning."
[13:58] Yuki
    My fingers are moving awkwardly.
[14:05] Yuki
    My world continues to grow since your arrival.
[14:09] Yuki
    And even my sighs seem
    to blend in effortlessly with it.
[14:16] Yuki
    I want this to be love.
[14:20] Yuki
    I would prefer that.
[14:29] Yuki
    "You learned the signs for common greetings?"
[14:33] Yuki
    "When did you get back to Japan?"
[14:36] Yuki
    There's so much I want to ask him.
[14:40] Yuki
    I could use my phone or a notebook.
[14:43] Itsuomi
    Hold out your hand.
[14:52] Yuki
    He held it!
[15:02] Itsuomi
    Laos souvenir.
[15:05] Yuki
    Right! The souvenir!
SIGN    Thank you!
    I like it very much!
[15:36] Yuki
    He might've been saying something at the time,
[15:39] Yuki
    but I couldn't bring myself to look at him.
[15:52] Yuki
    Why did he pick this?
[15:55] Yuki
    Is it some kind of god?
[15:57] Yuki
    It's so creepy, it's wrapped
    around to being kinda cute.
[16:01] Yuki
    Itsuomi-san must've seen so many
    things I have no knowledge of...
[16:09] Yuki
    A world I'm not familiar with.
[16:15] Yuki
    The school for the deaf I went to
[16:18] Yuki
    included everything from nursery
    to high school in one campus.
[16:23] Yuki
    My age group had four students in total.
[16:40] Yuki
    Everyone there was so nice and so warm,
[16:45] Yuki
    you felt safe there.
[16:48] Yuki
    That was the entirety of my world.
[16:53] (Flashback) Madoka
    Yuki!
[16:55] Yuki
    Oh, Madoka-chan.
[17:01] Yuki
    And yet, I longed for more.
[17:15] Yuki
    I want more.
[17:25] Yuki
    There she is.
[17:27] Yuki
    They're deep in conversation.
[17:29] Yuki
    I'd like to talk to her about a bunch
    of stuff concerning Itsuomi-san,
[17:33] Yuki
    but it's not like we made plans
    to meet up or anything.
[17:41] Yuki
    Oushi-kun.
[17:43] Oushi
    What are you standing around for?
[17:46] Yuki
    Waiting for a friend.
[17:49] Oushi
    A friend?
[17:51] Friend A
    What? Working the whole time sounds so sad!
[17:54] Rin
    You gotta go on a holiday, right?
[17:55] Friend B
    I know you two aren't any better off, okay?
[18:01] Oushi
    They're having a loud chat about
    their plans for spring break.
[18:06] Yuki
    You don't have to translate that stuff for me.
[18:09] Oushi
    Please. I know you're curious.
[18:16] Oushi
    That's the second-year girl who takes
    notes on your laptop for you, right?
[18:20] Yuki
    What about it?
[18:23] Oushi
    You call her your friend, huh...
[18:26] Yuki
    Oushi-kun's sign language
    is always so pointed.
[18:32] Yuki
    But at times, his fingertips
    look frail—almost meek.
[18:39] Yuki
    It makes me feel like he must
    be worried for me deep down.
SIGN    Why the heck
    did you have to
    come to college?
[19:11] Yuki
    Itsuomi-san.
[19:23] Yuki
    Back then,
[19:25] Yuki
    I had hoped to set foot into the outside world
[19:28] Yuki
    and went around visiting several
    colleges during open campus.
[19:32] Yuki
    I found a world there that had
    so many things I didn't know.
[19:37] Yuki
    The college students I saw
[19:39] Yuki
    seemed every bit the unattainable
    ideal that TV stars were.
[19:46] Yuki
    "The outside world."
[19:48] Oushi
    What's his deal?
[19:54] Oushi
    Listen, you.
[19:56] Yuki
    What?
[19:57] Oushi
    Don't get carried away.
[20:01] Yuki
    I'm not.
[20:03] Friend A
    Say, is that sign language?
[20:05] Rin
    Huh?
[20:06] Rin
    Oh, Yuki.
[20:08] Friend B
    Wow.
[20:10] Friend B
    Wonder what they're talking about.
[20:22] Rin
    Yuki!
[20:24] Rin
    Hello!
[20:26] Oushi
    Hey.
[20:32] Oushi
    You should try to avoid suddenly
    clinging to her from behind.
[20:35] Oushi
    She can't hear footsteps.
[20:39] Rin
    Sorry about that. I won't do it again.
[20:53] Friend B
    Is there anywhere you'd like to go, then?
[20:53] Girl B
    I couldn't communicate my thoughts at all.
[20:55] [Messenger] Sign
    You know that talk
    we had about love
    or crushing?
[20:58] Rin
    Hmm? Uh-huh.
[21:08] Girl B
    When you speak different
    languages, it changes...
[21:23] [Messenger] Sign
    What does that sign
    just now mean?
[21:25] [Messenger] Sign
    It means "Are you
    doing good?" or
    "Hang in there!"
[21:39] Rin
    Let's go.
[21:46] Yuki
    Every movement of Itsuomi-san's fingers
[21:49] Yuki
    stirs these unfamiliar feelings within me.
[21:52] Yuki
    Every time he looks at me,
[21:55] Yuki
    I feel such nervous excitement that
    I can't bear to look back at him.
[21:59] Yuki
    This emotion must be love.
[22:03] Yuki
    I...
SIGN    To Affection
[22:05] Yuki
    I've fallen in love with Itsuomi-san.
