**[00:04] ---**
So I want you to forget about it.
**[00:06] ---**
What?
**[00:09] ---**
About everything I've
said to you up until now.
**[00:12] ---**
The way I am right now,
**[00:14] ---**
there's no way I could
possibly make you happy.
**[00:16] ---**
With those parting words,
Subaru left the house.
**[00:23] ---**
*You're my special*
**[00:25] ---**
*The one and only precious
smile in the whole wide world*
**[00:29] ---**
*I don't want to let anyone else have you!*
**[00:32] ---**
*BELOVED x SURVIVAL*
**[00:46] ---**
*Your smile is the sunrise, illuminating my heart*
**[00:51] ---**
*The miracle of having the
surprise that's you always close by*
**[00:56] ---**
*My heart races! (The signal of love!!)*
**[00:59] ---**
*Everybody fight! (Love conflict!!)*
**[01:02] ---**
*I want to steal even fate itself*
**[01:06] ---**
*Because I'm more crazy about
you than when I first met you*
**[01:16] ---**
*You're near, but only love is too far away*
**[01:21] ---**
*All the guys competing for you*
**[01:23] ---**
*Formidable rivals (I won't lose!)*
**[01:27] ---**
*You're the one and only special
person in the whole wide world*
**[01:31] ---**
*(Forever!) I don't ever
want to let your hand go!*
**[01:34] ---**
*BELOVED x SURVIVAL*
**[01:37] ---**
*I love you!*
**[01:41] ---**
*FOR YOU! FOR LOVE!*
**[01:45] ---**
*YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE!*
**[01:54] ---**
Since then, the season came
**[01:57] ---**
for the Japanese elm trees
to put on their red flowers.
**[02:01] ---**
Are you worried about Subaru?
**[02:05] ---**
I wonder where he is...
**[02:07] ---**
How is he managing his meals and things...?
**[02:10] ---**
Well, he's not a kid. He'll be fine.
**[02:13] ---**
Yeah.
**[02:15] ---**
Masaomi...
**[02:17] ---**
We've had word from Subaru.
**[02:19] ---**
Really?
**[02:21] ---**
Yeah.
**[02:22] ---**
He said he's just going to be
staying at the university for a while,
**[02:25] ---**
so not to worry about him.
**[02:27] ---**
I see.
**[02:29] ---**
It looks like this year
**[02:30] ---**
is going to be a big turning
point in Subaru's life, too, but...
**[02:34] ---**
Kaname's going into
training at the head temple
**[02:37] ---**
and Iori's set to study abroad,
so it looks like he'll be leaving, too.
**[02:41] ---**
What?
**[02:42] ---**
I think it might be a year
of change for each of them.
**[02:46] ---**
It feels lonely, like the
family is breaking apart.
**[02:50] ---**
But you know, I think that's
how things go with families.
**[02:55] ---**
It's kind of like, everyone will
leave the nest here someday...
**[02:58] ---**
Sure, it's lonely,
**[03:00] ---**
but if this house can be a place
where my siblings can come back to,
**[03:05] ---**
I think that's okay.
**[03:08] ---**
And of course, that includes you.
**[03:11] ---**
Sure.
**[03:14] ---**
Here, say, "Ah."
**[03:16] ---**
What?
**[03:20] ---**
A reward for a good girl.
**[03:24] ---**
"Twelfth Conflict: Romance"
**[03:30] ---**
And then, the day came when the
university announced who was accepted.
**[03:35] ---**
My heart's pounding...
**[03:37] ---**
I'm scared to look.
**[03:40] ---**
All right! I found your number!
**[03:43] ---**
What?
**[03:43] ---**
You did it!
**[03:44] ---**
You did it! You did it! I'm really glad!
**[03:47] ---**
Yusuke...
**[03:50] ---**
S-Sorry.
**[03:51] ---**
No way. Thank you for being so happy,
like it was your own acceptance.
**[03:57] ---**
Of course. This is about you, after all.
**[04:03] ---**
Please let Yusuke
have been accepted, too.
**[04:08] ---**
It didn't happen.
**[04:11] ---**
Well, no helping it.
**[04:13] ---**
But just watch, I'll get
accepted for sure next year!
**[04:15] ---**
I want to go to the same
college as you, after all!
**[04:18] ---**
Yusuke...
**[04:22] ---**
I see, so Yusuke didn't make it in.
**[04:26] ---**
Yeah.
**[04:27] ---**
I think he checked
for my acceptance first,
**[04:30] ---**
because he was being considerate
and if I knew that he hadn't gotten in,
**[04:34] ---**
I wouldn't have been able to be happy about it.
**[04:36] ---**
He's rough around the edges,
**[04:38] ---**
but I could see him having
that kind of compassion.
**[04:43] ---**
Little Sis, do you have a minute?
**[04:48] ---**
Congratulations on your acceptance!
**[04:51] ---**
Th-Thank you very much.
**[04:53] ---**
Now I can feel free to go off to my training.
**[04:59] ---**
I'd heard about that from Masaomi,
**[05:01] ---**
but I guess it's true that
you're going into training.
**[05:04] ---**
It's about time that I overcame
my worldly desire for you, Little Sis.
**[05:09] ---**
Kaname...
**[05:11] ---**
I'll train myself rigorously until
I can behave like an elder brother.
**[05:15] ---**
You don't have to look like that.
**[05:17] ---**
This is my problem, after all.
**[05:20] ---**
Oh, yeah, before I set out on my journey...
**[05:23] ---**
Would you call me "Big Bro"?
**[05:25] ---**
What?
**[05:28] ---**
I'm joking. Well, I'm off.
**[05:33] ---**
I'll see you later, Big Bro!
**[05:39] ---**
And I heard from Iori about how
he would be leaving the house as well.
**[05:44] ---**
Would it be all right if I asked you
to water the flowers while I'm gone?
**[05:49] ---**
Of course.
**[05:53] ---**
I want you to care for these flowers.
**[05:57] ---**
What are these flowers called?
**[05:59] ---**
They're forget-me-nots.
**[06:00] ---**
Forget-me-nots...
**[06:02] ---**
Don't forget about me...
**[06:07] ---**
As if I would ever forget about you.
**[06:16] ---**
I hope we can greet each
other with smiles someday.
**[06:24] ---**
Can't sleep?
**[06:25] ---**
Everyone leaving the
house one after another...
**[06:29] ---**
It's kind of made me
think about a lot of things...
**[06:33] ---**
It's not as if it's your fault, Chii.
**[06:35] ---**
I'm sure there comes a time for everyone
when they want to go off on their own to think.
**[06:43] ---**
Goal!
**[06:44] ---**
Wow, I lost again!
**[06:48] ---**
Say, Wataru.
**[06:49] ---**
Why don't you try using the
fastest formula car this time?
**[06:53] ---**
I'll use a classic car.
**[06:56] ---**
I can't do that! I've got to win by skill!
**[06:59] ---**
What?
**[07:00] ---**
See, I'm going to work super
hard on games and in school,
**[07:04] ---**
and then I'll become a super CEO,
**[07:08] ---**
and become a man who's worthy of you, Big Sis!
**[07:12] ---**
Wataru...
**[07:14] ---**
Chii, are you all right?
**[07:16] ---**
I heard from Juli that
you were feeling down.
**[07:21] ---**
Is it because Subarun and
the others have left the house?
**[07:26] ---**
I also lost two important
clients due to job relocation.
**[07:32] ---**
But they both said to me
**[07:36] ---**
that even after they've moved,
they'd come again someday.
**[07:42] ---**
If you can get people to think of
you as someone they care about,
**[07:46] ---**
they'll always come back to you.
**[07:49] ---**
So, I want to be someone
that people think of in that way.
**[07:56] ---**
That's true.
**[07:59] ---**
There's no one in this house
**[08:01] ---**
who would truly want to
make things difficult for you.
**[08:06] ---**
Because everyone loves you, Chii.
**[08:11] ---**
So have faith in everyone.
**[08:14] ---**
I will.
**[08:17] ---**
Sis!
**[08:18] ---**
One more round!
**[08:21] ---**
Okay.
**[08:27] ---**
Tsubaki and Azusa...
**[08:29] ---**
"You may be busy with your
graduation ceremony coming up,
**[08:32] ---**
but if you're up for it,
how about the three of us...
**[08:34] ---**
...go have fun together next Sunday?
**[08:37] ---**
To celebrate your college acceptance."
**[08:39] ---**
The three of you?
**[08:40] ---**
Does that mean those two
have finally given up on you?
**[08:46] ---**
I have to go.
**[08:48] ---**
And I have to give Tsubaki
and Azusa a proper response.
**[09:03] ---**
Still awesome. I could ride that
over and over, and never get bored.
**[09:06] ---**
Are you okay? Are you having fun?
**[09:09] ---**
Yes. Because I've never been
to a place like this with family.
**[09:19] ---**
Nice view.
**[09:21] ---**
I think we caught it at just
the right time as it turns to night.
**[09:24] ---**
And there's no one here, too.
It's just the three of us.
**[09:28] ---**
Yeah.
**[09:31] ---**
Uh, um...
**[09:32] ---**
What is it?
**[09:34] ---**
Jinx.
**[09:36] ---**
You two really are so close, aren't you?
**[09:40] ---**
Of course.
**[09:42] ---**
Yeah.
**[09:43] ---**
But ever since I became a
part of the Asahina family,
**[09:46] ---**
a lot of things have happened...
**[09:48] ---**
Like conflicts that probably
never happened back before I came.
**[09:53] ---**
In my own way, I've given a lot of
thought to you, Tsubaki and Azusa.
**[09:59] ---**
And... I came to a realization.
**[10:03] ---**
What kind of realization?
**[10:04] ---**
I'd be interested to hear it.
**[10:06] ---**
I... truly love you both.
**[10:10] ---**
But that's as my brothers...
**[10:18] ---**
I cannot return the
love that you feel for me.
**[10:27] ---**
I understand how you feel.
**[10:30] ---**
But there's something I want
to make sure to say to you.
**[10:34] ---**
Something I want to make sure you know.
**[10:38] ---**
That even then,
**[10:40] ---**
I still love you.
**[10:53] ---**
I wonder if I got my feelings
across to them properly.
**[10:57] ---**
Do you have a minute?
**[11:00] ---**
Subaru...
**[11:13] ---**
I'm sorry I made you worry,
leaving suddenly like that.
**[11:17] ---**
Oh, no. I'm glad you came back.
**[11:21] ---**
That day, I punched
Natsu-bro and stuff and...
**[11:25] ---**
I really regret it.
**[11:28] ---**
I was all mixed up and...
**[11:32] ---**
I knew in my mind that I needed
to apologize to Natsu-bro,
**[11:37] ---**
but I just couldn't do it.
**[11:40] ---**
Even looking back on it now,
my actions were self-centered.
**[11:44] ---**
Doing those things, how
hurtful they'd be to you...
**[11:47] ---**
I didn't get it at all.
**[11:50] ---**
I'm really sorry!
**[11:54] ---**
Of course, I don't think this apology
is enough to gain your forgiveness.
**[11:58] ---**
But...
**[12:01] ---**
I wanted to make sure to
properly apologize to you.
**[12:04] ---**
Later.
**[12:06] ---**
Subaru.
**[12:09] ---**
Thank you very much
for telling me all that.
**[12:13] ---**
I'm happy you did.
**[12:17] ---**
I...
**[12:19] ---**
Right now, I've still got a long way to go,
**[12:21] ---**
but just watch, I'll become
a good man for sure.
**[12:25] ---**
I hope you'll see me
when I become that man.
**[12:48] ---**
And thus ended my last night
as a high school student.
**[12:54] ---**
"Graduation Ceremony"
**[12:57] ---**
We're finally graduating.
**[12:59] ---**
Yeah. I feel like it all went by in no time...
**[13:03] ---**
Th-There's no knowing,
but I-I hope we can stay in touch.
**[13:08] ---**
Wait, what am I saying?
**[13:18] ---**
What?
**[13:18] ---**
You graduated!
**[13:20] ---**
Congratulations!
**[13:22] ---**
Wh-What the?
**[13:24] ---**
A surprise party. It's a surprise party.
**[13:26] ---**
Now, come on inside.
**[13:29] ---**
Ooh!
**[13:30] ---**
Wow, this is splendid...
**[13:33] ---**
Looks tasty!
**[13:35] ---**
Yusuke, get it.
**[13:36] ---**
Huh?
**[13:37] ---**
Wait, aren't I one of
the stars of today's party?
**[13:40] ---**
Well, you're kind of like the extra freebie.
**[13:43] ---**
Extra freebie?! You just
called me an extra freebie?!
**[13:48] ---**
Yusuke, what's wrong?
**[13:50] ---**
Your coloring looks off...
**[13:52] ---**
Th-This...
**[13:54] ---**
What's this?
**[13:56] ---**
"Backup Candidate Acceptance..."
**[13:58] ---**
What?
**[13:59] ---**
For real?
**[14:00] ---**
You did it! You got accepted!
**[14:02] ---**
That's great news.
**[14:04] ---**
Congratulations.
**[14:04] ---**
This is truly a cause for celebration.
**[14:07] ---**
All that hard work paid off.
**[14:10] ---**
Yusuke?
**[14:11] ---**
I got accepted?
**[14:14] ---**
What?
**[14:14] ---**
I mean, so like, is this a real acceptance?
**[14:19] ---**
As in, well...
**[14:21] ---**
Does this mean I get to go to
the same college as you or not...?
**[14:25] ---**
Of course, you get to.
**[14:27] ---**
Really for real?
**[14:28] ---**
It's really for real.
**[14:30] ---**
O-Okay... So I get to go
to the same college as you...
**[14:34] ---**
Yeah!
**[14:37] ---**
I-I'm so glad I never gave up...
**[14:43] ---**
I honestly thought that
compared to my other brothers,
**[14:47] ---**
I wasn't cut out for much.
**[14:50] ---**
But this whole process
helped me figure something out.
**[14:52] ---**
That I'm capable of quite a bit, too.
**[14:55] ---**
So I'm never going to give up ever again!
**[15:00] ---**
Okay now.
**[15:01] ---**
Enough of you declaring
your intention to work hard.
**[15:03] ---**
Let us begin the party.
**[15:05] ---**
Y-Yeah! You're not calling
me the extra freebie now!
**[15:09] ---**
"Happy Graduation!"
**[15:11] ---**
This is yummy!
**[15:13] ---**
Could you pass me some of that too?
**[15:19] ---**
Futo?
**[15:20] ---**
What's up?
**[15:21] ---**
Um, would you mind
if we turned on the TV?
**[15:25] ---**
On it goes!
**[15:27] ---**
And now, we're going to see if
we can call up Futo Asakura on this feed.
**[15:30] ---**
Futo!
**[15:33] ---**
Hello.
**[15:34] ---**
I'm told there's someone you want
to get a message to through this show.
**[15:38] ---**
Yes.
**[15:39] ---**
Actually, it was my sis's
graduation ceremony today
**[15:42] ---**
I very much wanted to get a
word of congratulations to her.
**[15:46] ---**
Sis, congratulations on graduating.
**[15:49] ---**
You've given me the
gift of a lot of fun days
**[15:52] ---**
and I'll be returning the favor
in full, so look forward to it!
**[15:58] ---**
That bastard...
**[15:59] ---**
Also...
**[16:00] ---**
I have a declaration for all of you.
**[16:03] ---**
I won't belong to anyone, but...
**[16:07] ---**
I'll make you feel that
you want to become mine.
**[16:10] ---**
So brace yourself and follow my lead.
**[16:13] ---**
Whoa-oh, we got a passionate
message for all his fans as well!
**[16:18] ---**
Good grief.
**[16:20] ---**
That was *not* a message for his fans.
**[16:22] ---**
Just keep yapping!
**[16:23] ---**
I mean, that pisses me off!
**[16:27] ---**
What?
**[16:33] ---**
As to who turned off the TV...
**[16:35] ---**
I never did find out,
even after the party ended.
**[16:46] ---**
Um...
**[16:48] ---**
Do you have a moment?
**[16:50] ---**
There's something I'd
like to talk to you about.
**[16:52] ---**
Of course.
**[16:54] ---**
I've made my decision.
**[16:56] ---**
Decision?
**[16:57] ---**
Yes.
**[16:58] ---**
That I'm not going to get into a
relationship with anyone right now.
**[17:03] ---**
I see.
**[17:05] ---**
After I came to this house,
**[17:07] ---**
many surprising things happened
**[17:10] ---**
and I was taken aback.
**[17:12] ---**
I didn't know how to respond.
**[17:15] ---**
That noncommittal attitude of mine
only made things worse and worse.
**[17:20] ---**
You were just being nice.
**[17:23] ---**
But... I don't think it was good.
**[17:26] ---**
To me, you are all my siblings
**[17:29] ---**
and the most important thing is
for the whole family to be happy.
**[17:35] ---**
As long as I was certain of that,
**[17:37] ---**
I should have expressed myself
clearly at a much earlier stage.
**[17:40] ---**
But... that means that it's
not like you hate us, right?
**[17:45] ---**
Of course not.
**[17:46] ---**
You are precious to me as my
siblings and as my family, after all.
**[17:52] ---**
I understand.
**[17:53] ---**
I'm so sorry. Good night...
**[17:57] ---**
Wait.
**[18:01] ---**
I fully understand your feelings.
**[18:03] ---**
But even so, I still love you.
**[18:11] ---**
That feeling won't change.
**[18:14] ---**
And it never will.
**[18:28] ---**
I'm sorry for being a brother like this...
**[18:33] ---**
Good night.
**[18:41] ---**
You got hit by a counteroffensive.
**[18:44] ---**
Hikaru!
**[18:45] ---**
You did good hanging in there.
**[18:47] ---**
It takes strength to turn down
people's declarations of love.
**[18:51] ---**
I mean it, I think
your response was good.
**[18:55] ---**
And it's sure to allow
everyone to be hopeful, too.
**[18:59] ---**
What do you mean by that?
**[19:01] ---**
I'm sure you meant to put an
end to these various situations,
**[19:06] ---**
but it might've actually set things ablaze...
**[19:08] ---**
That's what I mean.
**[19:09] ---**
That can't be...
**[19:10] ---**
Take a look at this.
**[19:12] ---**
I was looking forward to
seeing who'd win you over,
**[19:14] ---**
so I'd been putting
together an odds chart.
**[19:16] ---**
An odds chart...?
**[19:17] ---**
Yup, but with your earlier words,
**[19:20] ---**
this race has come to an end
and this odds chart is useless now.
**[19:28] ---**
Instead...
**[19:29] ---**
The next race is going to begin now.
**[19:32] ---**
In other words, the Brothers Conflict
**[19:34] ---**
is going to keep going
for a good while to come.
**[19:37] ---**
And I'll also be entering the fray
this time, so good luck to us both.
**[19:41] ---**
What?
**[19:43] ---**
A good evening to you, Little Sister.
**[19:45] ---**
So please enjoy this brief
moment of peace to its fullest.
**[19:50] ---**
What's wrong, Chii?
**[19:51] ---**
Did something happen
with the males again?
**[19:53] ---**
No, I think I was able
to tell them how I feel.
**[19:57] ---**
There are still some
worrisome elements, though.
**[19:59] ---**
But you'll be fine.
**[20:01] ---**
I will protect you, Chii!
**[20:03] ---**
I'll make you happy, without fail!
**[20:06] ---**
Say, Juli...
**[20:07] ---**
Have you ever...
**[20:14] ---**
No, it's nothing.
**[20:17] ---**
Like those leaves,
**[20:19] ---**
there may be times
when my heart wavers.
**[20:23] ---**
But someday, I'm sure...
**[20:26] ---**
...that I'll be able to become
a real family with everyone.
**[20:31] ---**
Become real siblings.
**[21:32] ---**
Did you come here to see her?
**[21:35] ---**
Aren't you here for the same reason?
**[21:37] ---**
You've been away from home, right?
**[21:40] ---**
I wanted to see her face for a change.
**[21:42] ---**
But I get the sense that my
feelings are different from yours.
**[21:46] ---**
Different how?
**[21:48] ---**
I'm thinking I'd like
to respect her feelings.
**[21:52] ---**
So, someday, if her feelings
change and that time comes...
**[21:58] ---**
I plan to be a man who can be
there for her and come to get her.
**[22:01] ---**
Subaru...
**[22:06] ---**
You win, hands down. I'll go home for today.
**[22:09] ---**
Natsu-bro...
**[22:10] ---**
But I'm not stepping down from this fight.
**[22:12] ---**
Just watch, I'll win for sure someday.
**[22:18] ---**
You're on.
**[22:19] ---**
There they are, going at it again as usual.
**[22:22] ---**
You think so? They kind of
look like they're getting along.
**[22:24] ---**
Well, not that it's got
anything to do with us.
**[22:27] ---**
Yup. We're going to get on famously
with her, the three of us together...
**[22:31] ---**
So...
**[22:32] ---**
Yeah, until the time comes
somewhere down the line...
**[22:36] ---**
When that time comes,
I won't hold back.
**[22:38] ---**
I don't plan to, either.
**[22:40] ---**
Aw, man, I'm on one
of my rare visits home
**[22:42] ---**
and I run into the idiot. This sucks.
**[22:44] ---**
What was that, you bastard?!
**[22:46] ---**
Don't get all cocky just
because you're a pop star!
**[22:49] ---**
You're the one who's all cocky
**[22:51] ---**
because you'll be
attending the same college.
**[22:53] ---**
Wha...
**[22:54] ---**
Well, not that any of you
big bros are on my radar.
**[22:58] ---**
Because I'm the one
who's going to win anyway.
**[23:01] ---**
Sorry, but I'm the one who's going to win!
**[23:06] ---**
We can see each other
whenever we want to, but...
**[23:09] ---**
We're too close to
exchange whispers of love.
**[23:17] ---**
I love you.
**[23:22] ---**
That's who we are.
**[23:25] ---**
"That's who we are. Siblings."
**[23:26] ---**
Siblings.
