[00:41] ---
    Our chain will gladly lend its support.
[00:45] ---
    The Kunugigaoka School Festival
    is famous nationwide.
[00:48] ---
    Using our products would be
    fantastic publicity for us.
[00:52] ---
    Mr. Asano, it's worth investing in
    your customer draw and your promise.
[00:59] ---
    Thank you very much.
[01:00] ---
    Wh-What junior-high student
    signs on with a sponsor?!
[01:05] ---
    No blind spots. We'll blow that
    E Class away--as we should.
[01:25] ---
    You're all I think about
[01:28] ---
    Starting not to see anything else
[01:31] ---
    I'll win your heart for sure--I swear
[01:36] ---
    Me, not cool? Oh, that old tale
[01:39] ---
    I've spared no effort since then
[01:41] ---
    Should be over my problems by now
[01:45] ---
    I'm brimming with confidence: I can do it
[01:49] ---
    And just when I get warmed up
[01:52] ---
    Yeah, I get knocked down like this every time
[01:57] ---
    Your scathing, serious voice cuts me
[02:03] ---
    Thousands, tens of thousands
    of times I've given form to my feelings

[02:08] ---
    Driven them in,
    thrown them in--but all you do is run

[02:14] ---
    Question, question: what
[02:16] ---
    Question, question: on earth
[02:19] ---
    Question, question: did I
[02:22] ---
    Ever know about you anyway?
[02:24] ---
    Question, question: why
[02:27] ---
    Question, question: is it
[02:30] ---
    Question, question: you are
[02:33] ---
    So close and yet so far away?
[02:42] ---
    "Tenth Period: School Festival Time"
    "by Takuya Muramatsu"
[02:46] ---
    The main campus sure is
    getting hyped about this year's festival.
[02:50] ---
    "Maid Café" "Crêperie" "Train-Station Bento Display"
    Probably figure we're up to something, even if we can't win.
[02:54] ---
    I hear that Asano actually
    contracted with a restaurant.
[02:57] ---
    I wouldn't put it past him.
[03:00] ---
    We'll just have to go for the win.
[03:02] ---
    This match will likely hinge on a compilation
[03:04] ---
    of everything but assassination and studying.
[03:06] ---
    I really don't want to lose to the A Class...
[03:10] ---
    But what can we do?
[03:13] ---
    Asano's right. You need to tap into
    that sense of getting a bargain.
[03:18] ---
    If you can use a tight budget
    to make something of greater value,
[03:20] ---
    the customers will come.
[03:21] ---
    Well, yeah, but...
[03:24] ---
    The answers are all around you!
[03:27] ---
    The value of the E Class here
[03:30] ---
    lies in this,
[03:32] ---
    this,
[03:33] ---
    this,
[03:33] ---
    and this!
[03:35] ---
    These ingredients are like you:
[03:37] ---
    hidden in the mountains
    where no one notices their efforts!
[03:41] ---
    So we attack our customers
    with hidden weapons.
[03:44] ---
    Makes for a pretty assassin-y restaurant!
[03:46] ---
    Now to sell these blades
    like you're going in for the kill!

    "Acorn Noodles" "3-E, Junior High"
    Come on by! Acorn noodles made with real acorns!
[04:00] ---
    A new taste sensation made with
    the mountain's natural goodness!
[04:03] ---
    Even upperclassmen like you--
    adults who recognize value--
[04:07] ---
    will never have tasted deliciousness like this!
[04:09] ---
    Oh, yeah? Is it really that good?
[04:12] ---
    Of course! Taste the just-picked freshness!
[04:29] ---
    "Acorn Café"
[04:30] ---
    Huh. Nice place ya got here.
[04:33] ---
    Hey!
[04:34] ---
    It's the high-school guys from our class trip!
[04:36] ---
    What are you doing here?!
[04:38] ---
    Oh? Come to abduct another girl, have you?
[04:42] ---
    Like hell I am.
[04:44] ---
    Wouldn't want your freak of
    a teacher to show up again.
[04:47] ---
    But I don't need to
    get physical to wreck your day.
[04:52] ---
    I could... start shoutin' that
    your food tastes like crap, say?
[04:56] ---
    Or put a few choice words online?
[05:00] ---
    Well? Bring it out already.
[05:03] ---
    Our signature dish: acorn noodles.
[05:06] ---
    Whoa, this looks great! Hey, Ryuki,
    can I order a Mont Blanc, too?
[05:11] ---
    Yeah! I wanna try the smoked fish!
[05:13] ---
    Hey, cool it! Your stupid is showin'!
[05:16] ---
    Pfft. Leave it to a junior-high kid
    to come up with this.
[05:19] ---
    One bite and I'm gonna puke.
[05:24] ---
    S-So good!
[05:28] ---
    We wanted to get *lots
    *of reaction shots out of them...
[05:31] ---
    ...but those cooking anime
    have a monopoly on that.
[05:34] ---
    Uh, Fuwa?
[05:36] ---
    Not bad, right? I spent
    a solid week on research.
[05:40] ---
    The noodles are acorn,
    thickened with grated yam.
[05:43] ---
    Mountain foods are really strongly flavored,
[05:46] ---
    so I went with a rich dipping broth.
[05:49] ---
    It was hard work!
[05:51] ---
    These pork-bone/soy-sauce acorn noodles
[05:53] ---
    are the result of my search
    for the ultimate balance.
[05:57] ---
    True... I ain't ever tasted anything like it.
[06:00] ---
    "Smoked Freshwater Fish"
    True... I ain't ever tasted anything like it.
[06:00] ---
    "Smoked Freshwater Fish"
    For Muramatsu, it's downright miraculous.
[06:02] ---
    "Smoked Freshwater Fish"
    So much for your mediocre flavor being a selling point.
[06:04] ---
    "Smoked Freshwater Fish"
    Shut up, Itona! Get to work!
[06:07] ---
    Let's try something else! C'mon!
[06:09] ---
    What's this "slender Caesar" mushroom?
    Never had that before!
[06:12] ---
    Hey, you jokers! Say it tastes like crap!
[06:14] ---
    Oh? It does?
[06:16] ---
    Oh, dear... Did you not
    like my students' cooking?
[06:21] ---
    What a babe!
[06:22] ---
    No, no, no, no, no--it's crazy good!
[06:24] ---
    "Persimmon-Loquat Gelatin" "¥150"
    No, no, no, no, no--it's crazy good!
[06:24] ---
    "Persimmon-Loquat Gelatin" "¥150"
    Oh? Then how about this persimmon-loquat gelatin?
[06:29] ---
    "Persimmon-Loquat Gelatin" "¥150"
    It's exactly as soft as my skin.
[06:31] ---
    "Persimmon-Loquat Gelatin" "¥150"
    Yes, ma'am!
[06:33] ---
    And if you eat one of everything,
[06:35] ---
    it would make me sooo happy.
[06:37] ---
    B-But I don't have the cash--
[06:39] ---
    There's one right by the train station...
[06:41] ---
    ...an A... T... M.
[06:44] ---
    Time to make a withdrawal!
[06:45] ---
    Okay! I'll be waiting!
[06:47] ---
    That's one tribute course down.
[06:50] ---
    With Yada at the bottom
    drawing in customers
[06:52] ---
    and Professor Bitch at the top...
[06:54] ---
    That's one mean master-disciple combo.

    everything we need to pique our customers' interest.
[07:09] ---
    It's only day one.
    The battle is just getting started.
[07:13] ---
    According to my recon,
[07:14] ---
    it looks like the A Class is better
    at getting customers interested.
[07:19] ---
    This is our school festival debut!
[07:23] ---
    Asano!
[07:25] ---
    Glad you could come.
    I hope you enjoy yourself.
[07:29] ---
    We've got all kinds of events
    running at one-hour intervals.
[07:32] ---
    My pop-star pals and comedian buddies
    are performing for free.
[07:36] ---
    The 500-yen entrance fee gets you free food and drinks.

    When the event on one stage is over,
[07:42] ---
    the next event starts right away on the other side.
[07:42] ---
    "Event Stage" "Entrance Fee" "Food & Drinks"
    the next event starts right away on the other side.
[07:45] ---
    People will keep coming back,
    paying the entrance fee each time,
[07:48] ---
    and by the time
    they've satisfied their curiosity,
[07:50] ---
    their stomachs will be full to bursting.
[07:53] ---
    I doubt they'll feel like
    going to the E Class's café.
[07:58] ---
    Okay, we're up. You get ready
    while I knock out a few songs.
[08:15] ---
    Is there anything he can't do?
[08:17] ---
    Right?
[08:18] ---
    Honestly, he can do so much,
    it's kind of disgusting.
[08:21] ---
    But even a guy like that can fail.
[08:24] ---
    Can't have that--not against
    the E Class or anyone else.
[08:27] ---
    No matter how crafty our leader is,
    I'm sick of seeing him lose.
[08:32] ---
    We're the chosen ones, too, you know.
[08:35] ---
    Learning an instrument
    between study sessions is no big deal.
[08:39] ---
    Shall we give him some backup?
[08:41] ---
    Yeah!
[08:42] ---
    --I'll have this.
    --Hey, Nagisa! You here?
[08:43] ---
    --You got it.
    --Hey, Nagisa! You here?
[08:46] ---
    Here I am!
[08:47] ---
    Sakura! And Mr. Matsukata
    and the rest of the kids!
[08:51] ---
    Hey, so you kept in touch, Nagisa?
[08:54] ---
    Yeah, I help her study sometimes.
[08:57] ---
    When your private
    in-house tutor asks you to come,
[09:00] ---
    you pretty much have to, y'know?
[09:02] ---
    --Way to go, Nagisa. We'll make bank on volume alone!
[09:03] ---
    --It's the enemy of womankind!
    --Way to go, Nagisa. We'll make bank on volume alone!
[09:05] ---
    --Ladykiller!
    --Way to go, Nagisa. We'll make bank on volume alone!
[09:06] ---
    --How are you, Princess?
    --Sorry we don't have deeper pockets.
[09:11] ---
    Oh, now, this is superb!
[09:14] ---
    Something this tasty is gonna sell for sure.
[09:16] ---
    It's been a struggle.
[09:18] ---
    We can make good stuff,
    but it's hard to let folks know about it.
[09:22] ---
    Hmm.
[09:24] ---
    Aw, but I wouldn't worry.
[09:27] ---
    You guys have this
    mysterious power, y'know?
[09:29] ---
    Right. If your daily conduct is correct,
    I'm sure word will get out.
[09:36] ---
    Thanks again!
[09:37] ---
    "Acorns"
    Thanks again!
[09:40] ---
    I am confident about what we've accomplished so far.

    I am confident about what we've accomplished so far.
[09:44] ---
    "Welcome to Kunugigaoka Junior High 3-E's Acorn Noodles"
    But it'd be great if even one person could really spread the word.
[09:49] ---
    Listen, Nagisa, I heard
    why you let your hair grow long.
[09:53] ---
    I'm sorry. You didn't want to do it...
[09:57] ---
    Did my teasing hurt you?
[09:59] ---
    Oh, no, no! I can handle a little
    ribbing from you and Karma.
[10:04] ---
    Oh, okay. I'll try to
    lay off the teasing, anyway.
[10:08] ---
    Hey!
[10:09] ---
    That flighty voice...
[10:13] ---
    Nagisa! I came to hang out!
[10:16] ---
    Y-Yuji?!
[10:18] ---
    Yuji?
[10:19] ---
    Oh, from the southern island--
[10:21] ---
    that guy who mistakenly fell for Nagisa!
[10:25] ---
    H-How did you know I went here?
[10:27] ---
    I looked up the island's guest records.
[10:30] ---
    When I checked the school's website,
    I saw your festival was underway!
[10:34] ---
    O-Oh, okay!
[10:36] ---
    Ah! Hey! Whoa! Nakamura!
[10:41] ---
    One last time! One last time!
[10:44] ---
    The words were barely out of your mouth!
[10:46] ---
    He's rich, isn't he?
[10:48] ---
    We've got to raise our
    per-customer average any way we can.
[10:53] ---
    Go get 'em, Nagisa!
[10:55] ---
    The fate of the class
    rests on your hostess skills!
[10:58] ---
    Whoa!

    Man, I'm so glad I came during the festival!
[11:09] ---
    And to have you wait on me, too!
[11:12] ---
    Plus? Your suggestion to eat
    in private where no one can see us?
[11:15] ---
    You're getting my hopes up!

    I just don't want any

    and I'll get the whole menu!

    Kid's rich, all right!
[11:37] ---
    He's a good eater, too,
    so make us some money, Nagisa!
[11:40] ---
    Oh, I quit smoking those sketchy herbs.
[11:43] ---
    After all, you were worried about me!
[11:45] ---
    Oh, uh-huh?
[11:47] ---
    Here you are!
[11:48] ---
    Ooh, this looks good, too!
    Lemme take a picture.
[11:51] ---
    I feel so timid around Yuji...
[11:53] ---
    ...but I've got to keep up the charade
[11:55] ---
    so he won't sniff out all my secrets.

[12:01] ---
    Hey!
[12:03] ---
    Karasuma! Brought you something!
[12:06] ---
    I'm liking all the rich colors on this mountain!
[12:09] ---
    I heard the Reaper did you in.
[12:12] ---
    It was touch-and-go there for a while.
[12:14] ---
    I'm young enough to recover quickly.
[12:17] ---
    Never mind that--hide your gun!
[12:19] ---
    Who's that? He has a gun!
[12:21] ---
    M-Maybe we should call the police...

    Whoa! Whoa! N-No--that guy is, uh...

    Mr. Yoshioka?! But he's totally a foreigner!

    H-He's naturalized. A big anime fan--you know.
[12:37] ---
    "He's an anime fan"
    Oh, really?
[12:40] ---
    "He's an anime fan"
    Well, enough about Mr. Yoshioka...
[12:43] ---
    Nagisa... be honest;
    what do you think of me--
[12:49] ---
    --eeeYOW!
[12:52] ---
    Lovro...
[12:53] ---
    The octopus invited me.
[12:55] ---
    I see. I'm just glad you're still alive, too.
[12:59] ---
    Your pupil's been worried. Go see her.
[13:01] ---
    I will.
[13:02] ---
    Wh-What's with the scary old dude?
    He's no ordinary guy...
[13:07] ---
    M-Mild Yagyu. A big name
    in the Asakusa theater scene.
[13:12] ---
    He's a comedian?!
[13:13] ---
    Th-That conversation?
    They were discussing a bit.
[13:17] ---
    His pupil quit comedy, see,
    and became a teacher here, and...
[13:21] ---
    Hmm...
[13:23] ---
    What a tasty gun! You wouldn't think
    kids put together this flavor!
[13:28] ---
    Yeah--it tastes so good,
    I'd gladly eat even a poisoned bowl!
[13:32] ---
    F-Fellow comedians! From Asakusa!
[13:34] ---
    --And the guy eating the wasabi
[13:35] ---
    --Hm! Hm!
    --And the guy eating the wasabi Mont Blanc
[13:37] ---
    is doing a reaction schtick he learned directly from Mild Yagyu!
[13:38] ---
    We just seem to fall in
    with that kind of crowd.
[13:42] ---
    Hey, Nagisa...
[13:45] ---
    You're lying, aren't you?
[13:48] ---
    My old man's a big-name talent.
[13:51] ---
    Since I was little, I've seen
    the faces of tons of people
[13:53] ---
    who've cozied up to him.
[13:56] ---
    I can tell when people
    put up a front, wear a fake smile.
[14:02] ---
    The girl I met at that island hotel?
[14:04] ---
    She wouldn't smile like that.
[14:09] ---
    Wow. Good eye.
[14:12] ---
    Nothing good about it.
[14:14] ---
    Just an unwanted talent
    I got from my skeevy environment.
[14:19] ---
    You're right. I was lying to you.
[14:22] ---
    I've looked like this since I was
    a little boy--I can't help it.
[14:27] ---
    And I always hated it.
[14:28] ---
    Wait--"boy"?
[14:30] ---
    But lately I've learned that
[14:33] ---
    if it can help others, even an
    unwanted talent can give you confidence.
[14:37] ---
    So I don't hate it that much now.
[14:40] ---
    I'm sorry. I'm a guy.
[14:46] ---
    Another lie?
[14:47] ---
    No, really.
[14:48] ---
    Another one?
[14:50] ---
    No, really.
[14:51] ---
    Show him and he'll believe you!
[14:51] ---
    "Show him and he'll believe you!!"
    Show him and he'll believe you!
[14:53] ---
    "Show him and he'll believe you!!"
    Show him what?!
[14:54] ---
    Show him what?!
[14:55] ---
    Does this look like a lying face?
[14:58] ---
    No way...
[15:00] ---
    Examined from another angle,
[15:02] ---
    your faults and weaknesses can be weapons.
[15:05] ---
    What I've learned in this classroom is how to do just that.
[15:05] ---
    "Sugar"
    What I've learned in this classroom is how to do just that.
[15:08] ---
    "Sugar"
    It's how we put together this café,
[15:12] ---
    and it's the connection that
    brought all these people here today.
[15:17] ---
    It's really exciting--and fun.
[15:25] ---
    Oh, b-but since I tricked you,
    I'll give you your money back!
[15:29] ---
    Nah. I just... I feel like such a dummy.
[15:34] ---
    I'm out.
[15:38] ---
    Huh? He left already?
[15:40] ---
    "Heart-Pounding Maid Costume"
    Huh? He left already?
[15:41] ---
    "Heart-Pounding Maid Costume"
    I was going to soak him for a cosplay photo shoot.
[15:44] ---
    "Heart-Pounding Maid Costume"
    Just how much were you trying to make off me?!
[15:48] ---
    Yuji... That was wrong of me.
[15:58] ---
    Well, our first day went all right...
[16:00] ---
    The sales reports've been posted.
[16:03] ---
    At this rate, we won't
    get anywhere near the A Class.
[16:09] ---
    Hurry, or we'll miss the morning broadcast!
[16:11] ---
    Huh? A TV crew?
[16:13] ---
    Covering what?
[16:15] ---
    The only thing up ahead is the E Class.
[16:17] ---
    "Smoked Freshwater Fish" "Acorn Café" "Persimmon-Loquat Gelatin"
[16:18] ---
    "Smoked Freshwater Fish" "Acorn Café" "Persimmon-Loquat Gelatin"
    What the hell?!
[16:19] ---
    You guys! This online review
    is spreading like wildfire!
[16:23] ---
    I dug around a little to find the source.
[16:27] ---
    And what I found...
[16:29] ---
    "Yuji Norita's Diary of a Wandering Gourmet"
    And what I found...
[16:30] ---
    "Yuji Norita's Diary of a Wandering Gourmet"
    ...was Yuji Norita--the most influential food blogger today!
[16:34] ---
    "Yuji Norita" "Curious about a place? I'll fly right over!"
    ...was Yuji Norita--the most influential food blogger today!
[16:34] ---
    "Yuji Norita" "Curious about a place? I'll fly right over!"
    Thanks to having grown up eating lots of good food,
[16:37] ---
    "Yuji Norita" "Curious about a place? I'll fly right over!"
    his tastebuds are, annoyingly enough, the real deal.
[16:40] ---
    His money-is-no-object wandering-gourmet
    reviews are super reliable!
[16:45] ---
    Yuji...
[16:48] ---
    I came across a crazy-delicious café
    at the Kunugigaoka School Festival.
[16:54] ---
    My next post will cover the menu
    in depth, but for now,
[16:57] ---
    my whole outlook on life has changed.
[16:59] ---
    They used all kinds of
    self-sufficient ingredients,
[17:01] ---
    turning a poor location to their advantage.
[17:05] ---
    "Your faults and weaknesses can be weapons."
[17:08] ---
    Hearing my friend who works there say that,
[17:12] ---
    I thought about
    how guilty I felt to be so spoiled,
[17:15] ---
    hiding in the shadow of my big-shot father.
[17:18] ---
    I was such a dummy.
[17:22] ---
    "Yuji Norita" "Curious about a place? I'll fly right over!"
[17:22] ---
    "Yuji Norita" "Curious about a place? I'll fly right over!"
    The allowance I'd been pampered with--that's my weapon.
[17:26] ---
    "Yuji Norita" "Curious about a place? I'll fly right over!"
    And I want it to help people,
[17:28] ---
    so I'll just make the most of it
    and post my recommendations.
[17:31] ---
    First, the life-changing mountaintop café.
[17:35] ---
    --You've only got one day left to taste it!
[17:36] ---
    --Welcome!
    --You've only got one day left to taste it!
[17:39] ---
    We all ran ourselves ragged after that.
[17:43] ---
    With every new order, we foraged,
[17:45] ---
    cooked,
[17:46] ---
    served,
[17:47] ---
    and sold.
[17:49] ---
    Our friends and acquaintances
[17:51] ---
    kept coming,
[17:52] ---
    and coming,
[17:53] ---
    and coming!
[18:02] ---
    Uh-oh! We're about to
    run out of acorn noodles!
[18:06] ---
    We sold more than we thought we would.
[18:08] ---
    But the A Class will have made more money.
[18:11] ---
    The "tastes of the mountain"
    side menu is selling well, too.
[18:14] ---
    Let's stick it out with those
    in the time we have left!
[18:17] ---
    If we go a little further into the mountain,
[18:20] ---
    we can build up our reserves a bit.
[18:22] ---
    Hmm...
[18:24] ---
    No--let's end it here.
[18:27] ---
    But then we can't win.
[18:29] ---
    That's all right.
[18:30] ---
    Any more foraging and we'll
    destroy the mountain's ecosystem.
[18:34] ---
    Yeah...
[18:35] ---
    The actions of all creatures
    contribute to our deeper interconnection.
[18:40] ---
    Did you sense all the connections
    fate has blessed you with?
[18:46] ---
    Those who've taught you,
    those you've helped,
[18:49] ---
    those you've caused trouble for,
    those who've caused trouble for you.
[18:53] ---
    Those you've fought as rivals,
    only to better one other.
[18:57] ---
    Aw! So today turned out to be
    another lesson after all.
[19:01] ---
    Dammit. I really wanted to win, too.
[19:09] ---
    I'm sorry! We're all sold out--
[19:11] ---
    Oh, are you? You were very popular.
[19:17] ---
    Mom...
[19:19] ---
    Here you go: our last
    crimson-glory-vine juice. It's tasty.
[19:23] ---
    Thanks.
[19:26] ---
    Your class is really something.
    I see why you want to stay.
[19:31] ---
    Yeah.
[19:34] ---
    Nagisa, what happened
    here the other night...
[19:38] ---
    Looking at your back, I knew:
[19:42] ---
    My son was separate from me.
[19:47] ---
    And graduating from me--that was no bluff.
[19:51] ---
    Somewhere along the way,
    you'd found the strength to do just that.
[19:59] ---
    But, Nagisa... at least
    stay with me till you come of age.
[20:04] ---
    Then you can do whatever you like.
[20:10] ---
    But I did get to be your mother, after all.
[20:13] ---
    Let me worry about you for a while longer.
[20:17] ---
    Okay!
[20:19] ---
    All of the connections
    we encounter in this world
[20:22] ---
    serve as teachers who nurture us.
[20:25] ---
    How about making today
    the day you were born?
[20:31] ---
    The connections you gave me...
[20:33] ---
    Am I doing a good job passing them along?
[20:37] ---
    Hey.
[20:38] ---
    Nagisa's mother apologized.
[20:41] ---
    I understand she tried to set a fire?
[20:43] ---
    Yes. But that's water under the bridge.
[20:46] ---
    And she whispered something
    to me as she left...
[20:50] ---
    Said she'd keep my wig a secret?!
    What's the meaning of this?
[20:58] ---
    That A Class is amazing!
[21:00] ---
    They beat the high-schoolers
    to come out on top!
[21:02] ---
    That's Asano for you.
[21:04] ---
    "School Festival: Overall Results"
    But the E Class stands out, too.
[21:07] ---
    "School Festival: Overall Results"
    Came in third even after shutting down halfway through day two!
[21:10] ---
    "School Festival: Overall Results"
    How would it've turned out if they'd stayed till the end?
[21:13] ---
    Did you go?
[21:14] ---
    Well, it was on TV--I got all curious, y'know?
[21:17] ---
    Here I thought the E Class
    was this hellish place.
[21:21] ---
    Being all self-sufficient
    out in nature like that?
[21:23] ---
    They might actually have it pretty good!
[21:41] ---
    The moon that swims in the night sky
[21:47] ---
    If you stretch out your hand, you can reach it
[21:52] ---
    I went to touch it: it was warm
[21:58] ---
    And slowly drew me in
[22:03] ---
    The multiplying footsteps,
    the view from my window:

[22:14] ---
    As I drifted along, expressionless
[22:20] ---
    They spilled out of my hands
[22:24] ---
    It was rocking, swaying--I never knew
[22:31] ---
    Until I touched it with my own hands
[22:36] ---
    I'll gather up
    and go through all of the things

[22:42] ---
    Scattered beneath the waning moon
