[00:01] Curls
    You walked the girls home for me.
[00:09] Curls
    Want to come in for a bit?
[00:15] Curls
    There's something I want
    to talk to you about.
[00:26] Curls
    How's it going, delivering the flyers?
[00:30] Hikki
    It's a bit rough.
[00:32] Curls
    I thought it would be.
[00:35] Curls
    You think it's a bit weird, don't you?
[00:38] Curls
    If they want an audience, why don't
    they ask their friends first, right?
[00:44] Hikki
    Yeah.
[00:48] Curls
    It might be my fault.
[00:51] Curls
    I like my life right now, so I really
    don't want anyone to make fun of me.
[00:57] Curls
    Because of that, I've always avoided
    making friends with people at school.
[01:04] Curls
    I think I might have given them the
    idea that they shouldn't do anything
[01:09] Curls
    to risk letting their
    special place be desecrated—
[01:11] Curls
    that they don't need other friends—
[01:14] Curls
    that the three of them only need each other.
[01:19] Curls
    I figure this is good enough for me.
[01:24] Curls
    But...
[01:25] Curls
    There's no reason that those
    girls need to live the same way.
[01:30] Curls
    It might turn out that
    no one makes fun of them.
[01:35] Curls
    Maybe they'll hold a concert
    at the church and have a blast
[01:38] Curls
    with their friends from school.
[01:40] Curls
    Maybe there's a chance they'll have a future
[01:42] Curls
    where they'll have made some happy memories.
[01:45] Curls
    If there is, I want them to choose that path.
[01:48] Hikki
    Why don't you...
[01:50] Curls
    No way.
[01:52] Curls
    It's something that I'm not allowed to say.
[01:56] Curls
    I'm the very person who's
    meandered my way through life.
[02:03] Curls
    If I told them,
[02:07] Curls
    I'd win an award for hypocrisy of the week.
[02:20] Hikki
    That church—Little Wing—
    is filled with kind people.
[02:25] Hikki
    They know what happiness looks like to them,
[02:28] Hikki
    but they care so much about each
    other that they can't step in.
[02:34] Hikki
    But there might be things that
    I can tell them as an outsider.

[04:50] Hikki
    I just came up with a song.
[04:53] Hikki
    It just kind of came to me,
    despite the situation.
[04:57] Hikki
    Or maybe it's because of the situation.
[05:02] Hikki
    Now I just need lyrics.
SIGN    Concert
[05:08] Aural Weapon
    We still have a lot left.
[05:10] Purple
    What can you expect?
[05:11] Purple
    We had practice, and we had
    to do band practice first.
[05:16] Beige
    We can try harder tomorrow.
[05:18] Hikki
    Hey, girls,
[05:21] Hikki
    don't you think school...
[05:22] (Flashback) Curls
    I'd win an award for hypocrisy of the week.
[05:40] Hikki
    Hypocrisy, huh?
[05:46] Brown
    You met with the girls again today, huh?
[05:49] Hikki
    Yeah.
[05:50] Hikki
    I guess.
[05:53] Brown
    You don't spend time with me,
    but you do with them, huh?
[05:57] Hikki
    That's why I'm serving you right now.
[06:02] Brown
    I-I'm not letting you
    pretend that's good enough.
[06:08] Hikki
    Kurumi,
[06:11] Hikki
    I'll start going to school tomorrow.
[06:15] Brown
    I see.
[06:17] Brown
    That's not anything special.
[06:20] Brown
    It's what you're supposed to do.
[06:40] Hikki
    Let's see...
[06:46] Hikki
    Is this right?
SIGN    Good luck.
[07:23] Hikki
    Thanks, Kurumi.
[07:37] Hikki
    If I don't take a step forward,
    I can never connect.
[07:40] Hikki
    If I have a goal to reach, nothing will
    happen until I move towards it myself.
[07:48] Hikki
    That's what I want to teach
    Jun, Nozomi, and Sora.
[07:55] Hikki
    But I don't have the right
    to say such a thing.
[08:00] Hikki
    So I'm going to go earn that right myself.
[08:24] Hikki
    Hang in there.
[08:26] Sensei
    Also, if you haven't handed in your
    assignment yet, please do so by tomorrow.
[08:32] Sensei
    About the schedule for the midterm exams...
[08:33] Hikki
    Three, two, one...
[08:36] Hikki
    Rock n' roll!
[08:39] A
    Who's that?
[08:41] B
    Who's that?
[08:42] Hikki
    P-Pardon me.
[08:44] Sensei
    U-Um...
[08:46] Sensei
    You're... Uh...
[08:48] Hikki
    N-Nukui Kyo.
[08:51] Hikki
    I'm sorry I'm late.
[08:53] Sensei
    Nukui-kun?
[08:55] Sensei
    Student number 17?
[08:57] Hikki
    Yes.
[08:58] Hikki
    Probably.
[08:59] Sensei
    I-I see.
[09:00] Sensei
    Please be careful from now on.
[09:03] Hikki
    I understand.
[09:04] Hikki
    Sorry.
[09:07] Hikki
    Hey, Sensei...
[09:08] Sensei
    Y-Yes?
[09:10] Hikki
    May I sing a song?
[09:13] Sensei
    What? Why?
[09:15] Hikki
    As a self-introduction and a notice.
[09:18] Hikki
    I won't ever do such a thing again.
[09:21] Hikki
    May I, please?
[09:24] Sensei
    I don't know, now's not the time.
[09:28] Curls
    Why not?
[09:32] Sensei
    Toriumi-san?
[09:33] Curls
    Why not? It's only once.
[09:36] Curls
    He comes to school for the first time,
[09:39] Curls
    a month late, with a guitar,
    asking to be allowed to sing.
[09:41] Curls
    How weird can you get?
[09:43] Curls
    He's so weird that I'm
    actually curious to hear.
[09:45] A
    She has a point.
[09:48] B
    Sensei, I want to hear him, too.
[09:50] C
    Same here.
[09:54] Sensei
    P-Please quiet down, everyone.
[09:56] C
    Also, Sensei, he might get
    violent if you turn him down.
[10:04] Sensei
    Please show us your performance, Nukui-kun.
[10:10] Hikki
    N-Nice to meet you.
[10:12] Hikki
    Belatedly, I'm Nukui Kyo,
    a fellow student in your class.
[10:15] Hikki
    I've decided to come to
    school as of today.
[10:18] Hikki
    Thanks for having me.
[10:20] A
    Why do you have a guitar with you?
[10:23] Hikki
    I-It's my hobby.
[10:25] Hikki
    I like making music.
[10:28] Hikki
    The people I'm indebted to are going
    to be performing my music live.
[10:36] Hikki
    So if you hear my music, and you like it,
[10:41] Hikki
    I'd be grateful if you'd
    come see them perform.
[10:44] Hikki
    So please, allow me play just one song.
[11:00] Song
    I finally found
[11:03] Song
    All these things
[11:06] Song
    Let's just walk as far as we can
[11:13] Song
    Even if you have a feeling
    you'll lose even more
[11:20] Song
    Just live the best you can
    and color your emotions
[11:27] Song
    I want to roar how beautiful the world is
[11:42] Hikki
    Th-Thank you very much.
[11:43] Hikki
    The actual concert is
    going to be much better.
[11:46] Hikki
    I hope you come to watch.
[12:01] Hikki
    I can't be running away.
[12:04] Hikki
    Worse, I ended up so hurt
    that I ended up sleeping in.
[12:09] Hikki
    I-It's evening already?
[12:16] A
    Yo.
[12:18] Hikki
    It's me, Kyo.
[12:20] A
    Hey, you're finally here.
[12:22] A
    I've been waiting for you.
[12:24] Hikki
    Thank you for having me.
[12:30] Hikki
    Isn't this...
[12:31] Curls
    Yeah, I brought it here.
[12:33] Curls
    Along with this.
[12:44] Hikki
    S-Sorry, but, why?
[12:47] Curls
    I thought on my feet,
    and I recorded it for you.
[12:51] Curls
    You need it, don't you?
[12:52] Hikki
    Of course not, how could I need it?
[12:54] Curls
    Youdo need it.
[12:57] Curls
    How are you going to express how committed
    you are if you don't show this to them?
[13:04] A
    Sakura told me, more or less, what's going on.
[13:06] A
    Sorry for everything.
[13:08] Hikki
    I'm sorry, too.
[13:10] Hikki
    You told me to help them give up, and yet...
[13:14] A
    The kids are practicing downstairs.
[13:17] A
    Do for us what we can't do.
[13:25] Purple
    Master's music is easy to play,
    but it's kind of boring.
[13:30] Beige
    It's surprisingly hard
    to play slowly, though.
[13:37] Aural Weapon
    Kyo-san.
[13:39] Hikki
    Girls, there's something
    we need to talk about.
[13:49] Curls
    Didn't you say you were quitting when
    you started your orphanage work?
[13:53] A
    Yeah, but he's taking care of it now.
[13:57] A
    So I'm taking a little breather.
[14:02] Hikki
    Jun. Nozomi. Sora.
[14:06] Hikki
    I have a proposal.
[14:08] Hikki
    Why don't we try asking your classmates
    if they can come to the concert?
[14:14] Hikki
    You can just talk to them casually.
[14:17] Hikki
    If we want the concert to work,
[14:20] Hikki
    I think we should talk to
    the people around us first.
[14:24] Aural Weapon
    But...
[14:28] Hikki
    Hey, do you love this place, Little Wing?
[14:33] Purple
    O-Of course I do.
[14:34] Purple
    I love it.
[14:36] Purple
    But... That's why...
[14:39] Hikki
    What about you, Jun and Sora?
[14:42] Beige
    I love it.
[14:43] Aural Weapon
    I do, too.
[14:45] Aural Weapon
    That's why I want to do something
    memorable, one last time.
[14:50] Aural Weapon
    But...
[14:51] Hikki
    In that case, why don't
    you think of it like this:
[14:56] Hikki
    there might be other people who
    will come to love this place.
[15:01] Aural Weapon
    Other people, besides us?
[15:04] Hikki
    I was really happy when you told me when
    you told me that you like my music.
[15:12] Hikki
    So doesn't it excite you to
    think about the possibility
[15:18] Hikki
    of your friends coming to
    love your performance here?
[15:24] Hikki
    I think they'll like it.
[15:27] Hikki
    I already love this church,
    and I love Little Wing.
[15:33] Hikki
    I can't help but want
    to see you perform here.
[15:39] Aural Weapon
    Kyo-san...
[15:41] Hikki
    You don't have to decide right away.
[15:43] Hikki
    You can have plenty of
    time to think about it.
[15:50] Hikki
    I'll keep helping you with
    practice until the concert.
[15:55] Hikki
    I'm going to do what I can, until it's done.
[16:04] Hikki
    G-Good morning.
[16:07] Curls
    I thought you might stop coming again,
    after what happened yesterday.
[16:13] Hikki
    After what I told the girls,
    I decided I have to do what I can.
[16:19] Curls
    Well done.
[16:23] Curls
    A sticker?
[16:38] Hikki
    It's starting to sound pretty good.
[16:42] Hikki
    Okay, want to go hand out the flyers?
[16:50] Beige
    We aren't handing out the
    flyers at the station anymore.
[16:58] Brown
    I got a flyer at school today.
[17:02] Brown
    Stop looking at me, pervert!
[17:04] Hikki
    S-Sorry.
[17:06] Brown
    I finally know what you were
    up to with those girls.
[17:12] Brown
    You could have said something.
[17:16] Hikki
    Then...
[17:18] Brown
    I told you to stop looking at me!
SIGN    Set List
[17:26] Hikki
    Let's see...
[17:27] Hikki
    Assuming we're doing roughly
    ten songs at the concert...
[17:31] Purple
    We've got at least five
    of today's songs ready.
[17:34] Hikki
    That many?
[17:35] Aural Weapon
    We can do Judy and Mary's
    "Blue Tears" and "Rubber Soul,"
[17:40] Aural Weapon
    since we practiced them
    when we started the band.
[17:42] Beige
    We can also do about three of
    the songs that Master wrote.
[17:46] Hikki
    Oh, yeah?
[17:47] Hikki
    We have enough songs then,
    so we just need to decide on the order.
[17:51] Aural Weapon
    U-Um...
[17:53] Aural Weapon
    Th-There's another song that I
    want to do at the concert.
[17:58] Aural Weapon
    The one you sang at school.
[18:02] Hikki
    Y-You saw that video?
[18:04] Aural Weapon
    Yes.
[18:05] Aural Weapon
    Master showed it to us,
    saying, "This is true rock."
[18:09] Aural Weapon
    I-I thought that song was really good.
[18:14] Aural Weapon
    So I want to sing it, too.
SIGN    Strawberry Au Lait
[18:22] Curls
    Looks like those girls are
    practicing really hard.
[18:25] Hikki
    Yeah.
[18:26] Hikki
    They're starting to sound really good.
[18:29] Curls
    It was Jun who said she wanted to do the
    song that you sang at school, right?
[18:34] Hikki
    She seemed to really like it.
[18:36] Hikki
    She insisted on singing it.
[18:39] Curls
    I liked that song, too.
[18:43] Curls
    I always have.
[18:46] Hikki
    You always have?

    Go, already.

    Y-You go, Zomi.
[20:12] Purple
    I'll go when you go.
[20:26] Purple
    Jun, Sora, here we go.
[23:07] A
    That was awesome!
[23:10] B
    That was great!
[23:16] Hikki
    I don't want this moment to end.
[23:20] Hikki
    There's no way I can let this end,
    after just this time.
