[00:01] Itsuomi
    Let me introduce you...
[00:06] Itsuomi
    to my girlfriend.
[00:08] Shin
    Your... girlfriend...?
[00:13] Yuki
    Oh, does he not appreciate my being here?
[00:17] Shin
    Have I met her before?
[00:19] Itsuomi
    Kyouya's bar. You were pretty drunk, though.
[00:23] Shin
    Huh...
[00:28] Shin
    Coming in?
[00:29] Itsuomi
    Are you okay with going in? Or are you not?
[00:32] Shin
    Don't ask her that right in front of me.
[00:34] Yuki
    I'm a little bit scared of setting foot
    in an unfamiliar world,
[00:40] Yuki
    but I'll be okay.
SIGN    One Small Step
[02:17] Yuki
    Wow...
[02:20] Yuki
    That's quite the CD collection.
    How many does he have?
[02:25] Yuki
    Cute!
[02:27] Shin
    How long was your trip this time?
[02:29] Itsuomi
    About a month.
[02:31] Shin
    That so?
[02:33] Shin
    Yikes, booze is all I have.
    Does your girlfriend drink?
[02:37] Itsuomi
    Nah, she's still nineteen.
[02:39] Shin
    Same college?
[02:40] Itsuomi
    Yeah.
[02:42] Itsuomi
    Your Brit-rock collection has grown.
[02:43] Shin
    You can borrow some. What interests you?
[02:47] Shin
    What kinda music does
    your girlfriend listen to?
[02:52] Itsuomi
    She doesn't.
[02:54] Itsuomi
    Yuki can't hear.
[03:02] Shin
    She can't hear? Wait, what?
[03:04] Itsuomi
    She's had a hearing disability from birth.
[03:08] Shin
    How do you communicate?
[03:11] Itsuomi
    Wanna sit?
[03:14] Itsuomi
    Yuki reads my lips, or we type on our phones.
[03:19] Itsuomi
    And we're starting to use
    sign language more lately.
[03:22] Shin
    Sign?
[03:24] (Flashback) Shin
    What's wrong, Emma?
[03:26] (Flashback) Shin
    Itsu-kun again?
[03:27] (Flashback) Emma
    Sure is.
[03:28] (Flashback) Emma
    And for some reason,
    he's studying something again.
[03:31] (Flashback) Shin
    Studying what?
[03:32] (Flashback) Emma
    Well... sign language or something?
[03:36] Shin
    That explains that.
[03:58] Shin
    So...
[03:59] Shin
    Who did the asking out?
[04:01] Itsuomi
    Me.
[04:02] Shin
    You know, I always thought
    you'd date a foreigner this time.
[04:07] Itsuomi
    I wasn't expecting to get into
    a relationship for a while, either.
[04:12] Shin
    Huh?
[04:13] Itsuomi
    But ever since I met Yuki,
[04:16] Itsuomi
    I went to see her every chance I got.
[04:18] Itsuomi
    Even when we went out with Kyouya and Rin,
[04:21] Itsuomi
    I made sure we could be alone.
[04:23] Shin
    I don't remember you ever
    being so proactive with a girl.
[04:28] Shin
    Uh...
[04:29] Shin
    Can you understand what I'm saying?
[04:34] Shin
    Wow.
[04:37] Shin
    You're in love with Itsu-kun, huh?
[04:41] Yuki
    I never did tell him...
[04:45] Yuki
    I have to do it now?!
[04:57] Shin
    Was that sign?
[04:58] Itsuomi
    Yeah.
[04:59] Shin
    I didn't know that sign,
    but I still got what she meant.
[05:03] Shin
    Happy for you, man.
[05:05] Yuki
    My feelings got through to him.
[05:15] Shin
    I'll tell Emma.
[05:18] Shin
    She probably can't handle hearing it from you.
[05:21] Itsuomi
    Got it.
[05:23] Shin
    How do I minimize the damage?
[05:27] Shin
    I've only ever known an Emma who's
    crazy for you, ever since high school.
[05:33] Shin
    I don't know if she can move on.
[05:37] Itsuomi
    What're you gonna do?
[05:40] Shin
    Emma and I have spent too long as friends.
[05:44] Shin
    Nothing I say or do at this point
    can change anything.
[05:49] Shin
    I've been waiting for years and years.
[05:54] Shin
    And that's not gonna change.
[05:58] Yuki
    They're probably talking about
    something serious.
[06:02] Yuki
    I should try to avoid looking at their lips.
[06:10] Shin
    You're rocking some serious dark roots.
[06:13] Shin
    Come get 'em dyed soon.
[06:15] Itsuomi
    Yeah, sure.
[06:17] Shin
    Things may be more complicated for you two,
[06:20] Shin
    but I'm rooting for you.
[06:25] Shin
    What'd she say?
[06:26] Itsuomi
    "Thanks."
[06:29] Shin
    Itsu-kun's a dear friend. Be good to him.
[06:35] Itsuomi
    That's my Shin.
[06:37] Shin
    When did I become "yours"?
[06:38] Itsuomi
    Huh? Aren't you?
[06:43] Yuki
    Phew!
[06:45] Yuki
    I was so nervous!
[06:48] Yuki
    Shin-san seemed like a nice guy, though.
[06:50] Itsuomi
    Yuki. Were you nervous?
[06:55] Itsuomi
    Oh, is that the sign for "nervous"?
[06:58] Itsuomi
    That reminds me.
[07:00] Itsuomi
    You misread my lips
    at the crossing, didn't you?
[07:05] Itsuomi
    "Kiss" and "hug."
[07:07] Yuki
    The kiss!
[07:08] Yuki
    Kiss... kiss... kiss...
[07:10] Itsuomi
    I knew it.
[07:12] Yuki
    Was that perhaps your way of
    saying hi now that you're back?!
[07:15] [Messenger] Sign
    Was that perhaps your way of
    saying hi now that you're back?!
[07:16] Itsuomi
    No, I just felt like it 'cause you were
    like a cute little stoat back there.
[07:19] [Messenger] Sign
    No, I just felt like it 'cause you were
    like a cute little stoat back there.
[07:22] Yuki
    A... A stoat?
[07:24] Itsuomi
    If that surprised you, I'll be sure
    to give you a signal from now.
[07:29] Yuki
    A signal?
[07:52] Itsuomi
    Like this.
[07:55] Yuki
    So, I'm gonna get kissed
    every time he does that?
[08:00] Itsuomi
    You should pinch me
    if you ever want to kiss, too.
[08:03] Yuki
    That's too much for me!
[08:06] Itsuomi
    Just get used to it.
[08:11] Itsuomi
    We've got all the time in the world.
[08:17] Kyouya
    It's rare for you to call me so early.
[08:21] Shin
    Is it? Really?
SIGN    Iryuu Shin
[08:24] Shin
    I'll stop by for a drink tonight.
[08:26] Kyouya
    Sure. You called me just to let me know?
[08:30] Shin
    Itsu-kun introduced me
    to his girlfriend just now.
[08:33] Kyouya
    Hah. Showing her off as soon as he's back, huh?
[08:37] Shin
    I'd never seen that kinda
    expression on him before.
[08:40] Kyouya
    I know, right?
[08:43] Shin
    Kyou-kun...
[08:45] Shin
    Do you think it's okay for me
    to make a move on Emma now?
[08:50] Shin
    You okay there?
[08:51] Kyouya
    Seriously? The time's finally come?
[08:54] Shin
    I always thought Itsu-kun liked Emma,
    somewhere deep down.
[08:59] Kyouya
    Nah, I seriously doubt it.
[09:03] Kyouya
    If anything, I feel like Emma-chan's
    been waiting for you, deep down.
[09:08] Shin
    And I seriously doubt that.
[09:10] Kyouya
    Really?
[09:12] Shin
    Forget that. I'll see you later.
[09:16] Kyouya
    Yeah, I'll be waiting.

    What? You got a text from your Mr. Worldwide?
[09:36] Emma
    N-No!
[09:38] Emma

[10:28] Batayan
    Hurry up, or we're gonna be late for class.
[10:33] Emma
    I'm here, Shin-chan!
[10:36] Emma
    Been a while, huh?
    Since we went to karaoke, I think?
[10:40] Shin
    You got here quick.
    Put your stuff away and take a seat.
[10:43] Emma
    Okay!
[10:47] Emma
    The owner really trusts you, huh?
[10:52] Shin
    I don't know.
[10:53] Emma
    I mean, don't you get to make
    a lot of decisions here?
[10:56] Shin
    Not really.
[10:57] Emma
    You always have been working hard
    toward your dream.
[11:01] Emma
    There was even that time you did my hair up
    for me on the school's roof, remember?
[11:07] Shin
    Emma.
[11:08] Emma
    Hmm?
[11:09] Shin
    Oh, nothing.
[11:11] Emma
    Huh? What's up with that?
[11:13] Emma
    Y'know, I was really surprised when you
    texted me that you needed to talk to me.
[11:20] Emma
    If you need advice, I'm here for you.
    Just like you've always been there for me.
[11:24] Shin
    Nah, it's not that. Don't worry.
[11:27] Emma
    Yeah?
[11:29] Shin
    Okay, shall we start with the shampoo?
[11:31] Emma
    Yes, please.
[11:34] Shin
    You're asking me if I remember?
[11:38] Shin
    Of course I do.
[11:44] (Flashback) Emma
    Hey, Yuna!
[11:47] (Flashback) Yuna
    Morning, Emma!
[11:48] (Flashback) Yuna
    What's with the new guy?
    He's in your class, right?
[11:52] (Flashback) Emma
    Yeah, Nagi-kun! Isn't he hot?
[11:54] (Flashback) Emma
    Oh, there he is.
[12:01] (Flashback) Emma
    My knight in shining armor.
[12:03] (Flashback) Yuna
    Hubba-hubba!
[12:13] Shin
    The new guy, and... he's got kamaboko?
[12:20] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    This is a nice spot.
[12:24] (Flashback) Shin
    You talking to me?
[12:26] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    You're always here, right?
    Mind if I eat here, too?
[12:29] (Flashback) Shin
    Feel free.
[12:31] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    What's your name?
[12:34] (Flashback) Shin
    Iryuu Shin.

    And you?
[12:38] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    Nagi Itsuomi.
[13:25] (Flashback) Shin
    He's not here today.
[13:41] (Flashback) Emma
    Itsu-kun!
[13:42] (Flashback) Emma
    Oh, it's Shin-kun.
[13:45] (Flashback) Shin
    You know me?
[13:47] (Flashback) Emma
    You're in the next class over, right?
    Say, have you seen Itsuomi-kun?
[13:52] (Flashback) Shin
    Nope.
[13:53] (Flashback) Emma
    He always runs off somewhere, sheesh.
[14:00] (Flashback) Shin
    Hey!
[14:00] (Flashback) Emma
    You're still using wired earphones?
[14:03] (Flashback) Shin
    They sound better.
[14:05] (Flashback) Emma
    Really? Can I listen with you?
[14:16] (Flashback) Emma
    This is a nice track.
[14:19] (Flashback) Shin
    Yeah.
[14:26] (Flashback) Emma
    Shoot!
[14:29] (Flashback) Emma
    Lunch break will be over soon!
[14:31] (Flashback) Emma
    Thanks for that!
[14:33] (Flashback) Emma
    You should hurry up too, Shin-kun!
[14:36] (Flashback) Shin
    Right, yeah.
[14:41] (Flashback) Emma
    Here, for you!
[14:44] (Flashback) Shin
    What's this?
[14:44] (Flashback) Emma
    Give it a listen. I highly recommend it.
[14:48] (Flashback) Shin
    I didn't ask.
[14:50] (Flashback) Emma
    What, you're really gonna be like that?
[14:53] (Flashback) Emma
    No wonder you don't have
    any friends, Shin-kun.
[14:59] (Flashback) Shin
    Like you're not all alone these days.
[15:08] (Flashback) Emma
    This whole friendship business
    is so tiring, huh?
[15:13] (Flashback) Shin
    Something happen?
[15:14] (Flashback) Emma
    Nothing's been going my way lately.
[15:17] (Flashback) Emma
    But how people feel about me
    is out of my hands,
[15:22] (Flashback) Emma
    and changing myself to fit in
    doesn't sit right with me, either.
[15:27] (Flashback) Emma
    So I've decided to go it alone for now.
[15:32] (Flashback) Emma
    Well, enough of all that. I'll be waiting
    for your thoughts on the CD!
[15:48] (Flashback) Shin
    I wasn't expecting this.
[15:50] (Flashback) Shin
    I had no idea she was into this stuff.
[16:28] (Flashback) Emma
    No sign of Itsu-kun today.
[16:30] (Flashback) Shin
    Yeah.
[16:32] (Flashback) Shin
    Say, Emma...
[16:35] (Flashback) Shin
    May I touch your hair?
[16:38] (Flashback) Emma
    What? Where'd that come from?
[16:40] (Flashback) Shin
    Is that a no?
[16:41] (Flashback) Emma
    Sure, go ahead, I guess...
[16:46] (Flashback) Shin
    You have very pretty hair.
[16:49] (Flashback) Emma
    More of that, please.
[16:50] (Flashback) Emma
    I take real good care of it.
[16:55] (Flashback) Shin
    All done.
[16:56] (Flashback) Emma
    Oh, wow!
[16:59] (Flashback) Shin
    I'm training to be a stylist someday,
    and this is thanks for the CD.
[17:03] (Flashback) Emma
    You liked it? You can keep it!
[17:06] (Flashback) Shin
    You sure?
[17:08] (Flashback) Emma
    Yeah!
[17:10] (Flashback) Emma
    Hmm? What's wrong?
[17:14] (Flashback) Shin
    Emma...
[17:16] (Flashback) Shin
    Do you like Itsu-kun?
[17:18] (Flashback) Emma
    Yeah, I love him!
[17:20] (Flashback) Shin
    Instant reply...
[17:22] (Flashback) Emma
    I keep asking him out,
    and he keeps rejecting me.
[17:26] (Flashback) Shin
    What do you like about him?
[17:27] (Flashback) Emma
    Everything!
SIGN    Nagi Itsuomi
[17:29] (Flashback) Emma
    The moment I first laid eyes on him, I thought
    my knight in shining armor had arrived.
[17:34] (Flashback) Emma
    I'd never been under any illusions
    about boys before,
[17:37] (Flashback) Emma
    but he shot me right through the heart.
[17:42] (Flashback) Shin
    Oh?
[17:43] (Flashback) Emma
    I know you're popular with
    the ladies too, Shin-chan.
[17:47] (Flashback) Shin
    Shin...chan?
[17:49] (Flashback) Emma
    You've had a bunch of girlfriends, right?
[17:52] (Flashback) Shin
    Who knows.
[17:54] (Flashback) Emma
    Dodging the question, are we?
[17:58] (Flashback) Shin
    Why won't you go out with Emma?
[18:01] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    With Emma?
[18:03] (Flashback) Shin
    She's so pretty. Where are you
    gonna find anyone like her?
[18:07] (Flashback) Itsuomi
    I'm not interested in that stuff right now.
[18:12] (Flashback) Shin
    "Right now"?
[18:14] (Flashback) Shin
    So you're saying you would go out
    with her, just not right now?
[18:18] (Flashback) Shingf
    Please go out with me, Shin-kun!
[18:22] (Flashback) Shingf
    I've liked you for a long time.
[18:25] (Flashback) Shingf
    I want to be with you more....
[18:27] (Flashback) Shin
    Sure.
[18:28] (Flashback) Shingf
    Really?!
[18:29] (Flashback) Shin
    Yeah.
[18:30] (Flashback) Shingf
    Wow... Someone pinch me!
[18:33] (Flashback) Shingf
    I'm so happy!
[18:35] Shin
    Once Itsu-kun's "right now" passes,
    I'm sure the two of them will get together.
[18:42] Shin
    It doesn't matter how much
    I love Emma. I'm no match for him.
[18:47] Shin
    I wish they'd just hurry up and get together.
[18:52] Shin
    At least then I'll be able
    to cast these feelings aside.
[18:55] (Flashback) Emma
    Shin-chan, how's it going with your girlfriend?
[19:01] (Flashback) Shingf
    Didn't I say I'd make us lunch today?
[19:05] (Flashback) Shingf
    You're always with those two!
[19:08] (Flashback) Shingf
    Am I not your girlfriend?
    Was that something I just dreamed up?!
[19:11] (Flashback) Shin
    You are, sorry.
[19:13] (Flashback) Shingf
    Forget it. I know you're in love
    with Emma-san, anyway.
[19:17] (Flashback) Emma
    Wha?!
[19:17] (Flashback) Shingf
    It's clear as day.
    You're always looking her way.
[19:22] (Flashback) Shingf
    You pay zero attention to me,
    even when we're talking.
[19:25] (Flashback) Shingf
    Did you really think I wouldn't notice?
[19:28] (Flashback) Shingf
    Why don't you just ask her out now?
[19:30] (Flashback) Shingf
    Quit using other girls
    as a replacement for her,
[19:33] (Flashback) Shingf
    and make it clear right now
    who's number one in your heart!
[19:50] (Flashback) Shin
    Emma's the one...
[19:53] (Flashback) Shin
    Emma's the one person
    I will never fall for, even if it kills me.
[19:58] (Flashback) Emma
    Wow, why'd you attack me like that?!
[20:01] (Flashback) Emma
    You're a jerk, Shin-chan!
[20:09] Emma
    Whoa, my hair's all silky now!
[20:12] Emma
    You're so good, Shin-chan!
[20:14] Emma
    You're a master at making me pretty.
[20:19] Shin
    Emma, listen...
[20:21] Emma
    I hope Itsu-kun notices.
[20:27] Shin
    You really love Itsu-kun, huh?
[20:29] Emma
    Yeah, I love him loads!
[20:31] Shin
    Zero hesitation...
[20:32] Emma
    I mean, I love him! Why deny it?
[20:40] Shin
    You're right.

    Oh, Itsuomi-san.
[21:15] Yuki
    It's a strange feeling, meeting him at college.
[21:22] Rin
    Feels like it's been a while since we hung out.
[21:25] Rin
    It'd be great if Kyouya-san could join us
    and we could all go somewhere, huh?
[21:32] Itsuomi
    She says the four of us
    should go somewhere again.
[21:36] Rin
    Wow, Itsuomi-san. Maybe I should
    pick up sign language, too.
[21:40] Itsuomi
    Yeah, do it.
[21:42] Rin
    It seems difficult. I don't know if I can.
[21:48] Itsuomi
    She says you'll be fine.
[21:49] Rin
    Really?
[21:51] Itsuomi
    But that sounds good, actually.
