[00:03] Yu
    C-Come visit the Science Club...
[00:06] Yu
    We're selling preserved flower accessories.
[00:12] Yu
    Back in the fall of eighth grade,
[00:14] Yu
    I learned how bad I was at sales.
[00:19] Yu
    All that work to sell five.
[00:22] Yu
    Five out of 100 in one whole day.

[00:48] Himari
    You're Yu Natsume
    from the Science Club, right?
[00:50] Yu
    Y-Yeah, why?
[00:52] Himari
    You can't just leave the store like that!
[00:54] Himari
    Some girls came by a bit ago.
[00:58] Yu
    Wait, really?
[01:00] Yu
    Never mind.
[01:01] Himari
    What's up?
[01:03] Yu
    Even if I were here, it's not
    like anyone would buy them.
[01:07] Himari
    Oh, but they did buy them.
[01:10] Himari
    Here ya go! Fifteen customers.
[01:12] Himari
    For a total of twenty-seven items sold!
[01:15] Yu
    Twenty-seven? Th-That many?
[01:18] Yu
    Thank yo—
[01:20] Himari
    Hey, Natsume-kun.
[01:21] Himari
    Why do you keep looking away?
[01:24] Yu
    I-I'm not.
[01:26] Yu
    Pretty girls aren't my thing.
[01:27] Himari
    So tell me! Why do you need
    to sell 100 of these?
[01:33] Yu
    How do you even know that?
[01:34] Himari
    Sato-sensei from the Science Club told me.
[01:36] Yu
    Th-That's an invasion of priva—
[01:38] Himari
    So why is it?
[01:40] Yu
    She's giving me that look.
[01:43] Yu
    "A pretty girl like me is asking,
    so you better fess up!"
[01:47] Yu
    Something like that.
[01:48] Yu
    She's definitely cute.
[01:49] Yu
    But if I tell her, she'll
    probably make fun of me.
[01:54] Yu
    It's my dream to open my
    own store selling these one day.
[01:58] Yu
    But my parents want me to have a steady job.
[02:01] Yu
    We had a fight over it,
    and they said I could do whatever
[02:05] Yu
    I want if I sold 100 accessories
    at the school bazaar. Huh?
[02:09] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[02:15] Yu
    Ah! That's cold!
[02:18] Himari
    Of course your parents would stop you
    with a rash life plan like that!
[02:23] Himari
    You dummy!
[02:24] Yu
    Sh-Shut up!
[02:25] Himari
    Well it's true. Dummy!
[02:27] Yu
    Seriously? We just met.
    I shouldn't have said anything.
[02:32] Yu
    Who are you, anyway?
[02:33] Himari
    So how many accessories do you have left?
[02:36] Yu
    Umm... Sixty-eight?
[02:40] Himari
    Hmm, I think I can work with that.
[02:45] Himari
    Get ready to sell all of them!
[02:48] Himari
    Leave tomorrow to me, Himari Inuzuka!
SIGN    Anemone Flaccida and Queen of the Night
[02:56] Girl A
    Hey, Himari-san!
[02:58] Girl A
    I love these earrings! Where can I get them?
[03:02] Himari
    Oh, those? They're custom-made.
[03:05] Himari
    Here.
[03:07] Himari
    It's from this online store called You.
[03:10] Girl A
    Cool, thanks!
[03:12] Girl B
    So what should we do after this?
[03:15] Yu
    It's been two years since that bazaar.
[03:17] Yu
    The next day, I was able to
    sell the rest of my
[03:20] Yu
    flower accessories thanks to Himari.
[03:25] Yu
    These days, I promote
    and sell them online through
[03:28] Yu
    our family-owned convenience store.
[03:31] Yu
    Minors can't run a business
    for obvious reasons, so that's a big help.
[03:37] Yu
    It's a hassle, but I can't complain.
[03:39] Yu
    Especially since they cover
    the cost of the flowers.
[03:46] Yu
    This is like my own private world
    away from everything else.
[03:51] Yu
    Anyways, I like working alone like this.
[03:55] Yu
    My family calls me gloomy,
    but this is who I am.
[04:01] Yu
    I'm a creator.
[04:03] Yu
    I guess we just thrive in solitude.
[04:05] Yu
    Phew. There.
[04:07] Himari
    Wow! Another great piece, I see!
[04:11] Yu
    Himari! Not when I'm working!
[04:14] Himari
    What do you expect?
[04:15] Himari
    You've ignored me for an entire hour!
[04:18] Himari
    Enough work for today!
[04:20] Himari
    I got to see your sparkling eyes,
    so time to close shop.
[04:24] Yu
    I have to do the other side!
[04:27] Himari
    Don't be so shy!
[04:31] Yu
    "You should be more grateful for getting
    a cute girl like me all to yourself!"
[04:36] Yu
    Is that it?
[04:37] Yu
    She is cute, though.
[04:41] Yu
    I was just remembering
    that bazaar from middle school.
[04:43] Yu
    You had long hair back then.
[04:45] Himari
    Well you were much shorter then!
[04:49] Yu
    Anyways, can you get off now?
[04:52] Himari
    I don't think so. This is my special seat.
[04:56] Yu
    My neck! You're choking me!
[04:58] Himari
    The boy with the most
    huggable neck in Japan.
[05:01] Himari
    And the girl with the most
    desired pair of arms in Japan!
[05:04] Yu
    You sure about that?
[05:05] Yu
    I'd say you're a bit scrawny for tha—
[05:09] Yu
    I give up!
[05:10] Yu
    Just another ordinary day for us.
[05:10] Himari
    Good! Time to go home!
[05:12] Yu
    Okay, okay. Then let's go
    over the closing checklist.
[05:13] Yu
    Our own playground,
    built over the past two years.
[05:18] (Flashback) Yu
    Why did you save me back there?
[05:20] (Flashback) Himari
    I wasn't saving anyone.
[05:22] (Flashback) Himari
    I wanted to sell them,
    so I helped. That's all.
[05:26] (Flashback) Himari
    You should choose your words more carefully.
[05:29] (Flashback) Yu
    I didn't mean—
[05:31] (Flashback) Himari
    Let's do it!
[05:33] (Flashback) Himari
    A flower accessory store!
[05:35] (Flashback) Himari
    I'll support you!
[05:36] (Flashback) Yu
    What do you mean?
[05:38] (Flashback) Himari
    I'd actually been eyeing
    this choker you gave me.
[05:42] (Flashback) Himari
    I watched you working on it
    in the science room.
[05:46] (Flashback) Yu
    You were? From where?
[05:48] (Flashback) Himari
    From the hallway window.
[05:50] (Flashback) Himari
    I even tried talking to you,
    but you ignored me.
[05:54] (Flashback) Himari
    I know you take care of the flowers
    in the back garden every day, too.
[05:59] (Flashback) Himari
    You gave them all names and bawled
    when you finally cut them.
[06:04] (Flashback) Yu
    Y-You saw that?
[06:05] (Flashback) Himari
    Yup. Anyways, I was thinking
    of only buying this at first.
[06:09] (Flashback) Himari
    But I saw how bad the store was doing.
[06:11] (Flashback) Himari
    I couldn't help but beg my
    brother for a huge favor.
[06:16] (Flashback) Yu
    A huge favor?
[06:18] (Flashback) Himari
    Yup, it cost me big time.
[06:22] (Flashback) Himari
    So you owe me, Natsume-kun.
[06:25] (Flashback) Yu
    Owe you?
[06:27] (Flashback) Yu
    What exactly?
[06:28] (Flashback) Himari
    Hmm...
[06:31] (Flashback) Himari
    Can I have those eyes of yours?
[06:33] (Flashback) Yu
    My eyes?
[06:36] (Flashback) Himari
    Whoops.
[06:38] (Flashback) Himari
    I don't mean that in a gory way.
[06:40] (Flashback) Yu
    I get that much, but—
[06:42] (Flashback) Himari
    I love how your eyes light up when you work.
[06:45] (Flashback) Himari
    They're so focused and pretty.
[06:48] (Flashback) Yu
    My eyes...
[06:50] (Flashback) Himari
    Promise you'll only show
    those passionate eyes to me.
[06:53] (Flashback) Himari
    I want them for myself.
[06:55] (Flashback) Himari
    I'll sell all of your accessories for that!
[06:59] (Flashback) Himari
    Let's share the same
    destiny as best friends!
[07:03] (Flashback) Yu
    Best friends?
[07:10] Yu
    The Anemone flaccida represents
    "friendship," "cooperation,"

[07:15] Yu
    and "to never be separated."
[07:18] Yu
    Oh yeah, Himari.
[07:20] Yu
    What happened with that
    talent agency that reached out?
[07:23] Himari
    I turned them down.
[07:25] Himari
    Gotta focus on the promo
     for your accessories.
[07:28] Yu
    That's a waste.
[07:30] Himari
    Well, we are best friends.
[07:33] Himari
    If you can't open your own store
    by the time you're thirty,
[07:36] Himari
    I'd have to marry you.
[07:38] Yu
    Cut that out. Ever since you
    started joking about that,
[07:41] Yu
    Hibari-san keeps calling me
    his little brother. I feel bad.
[07:45] Himari
    Onii-chan likes you too much.
[07:48] Himari
    He won't stop unless you marry someone else.
[07:51] Yu
    Marry? I'd have to date someone first.
[07:55] Himari
    Are you still hung up on that crush
     you met in elementary school?
[08:00] Himari
    You met her on a trip, right?
[08:02] Himari
    Sounds made up if you ask me. Creepy much?
[08:05] Yu
    Sh-Shut up.
[08:08] Himari
    It's nice that you're a dreamer
    and all, but it's time to start
[08:10] Himari
    paying attention to real girls
    and get a girlfriend.
[08:15] Yu
    Maybe I could if you weren't all over me
     at school. You drive everyone away.
[08:20] Himari
    But I've had boyfriends here
    and there, though.
[08:23] Himari
    Maybe you're just not attractive enough.
[08:25] Yu
    Or maybe it's because the guys you dumped
    are spreading rumors about me.
[08:29] Himari
    Well you are all I talk
    about in front of them.
[08:34] Himari
    But I don't actually
    like them. I'm just bored!
[08:38] Yu
    You suck sometimes.
[08:42] Himari
    I'm clueless when it comes
    to romance, you know?
[08:45] Yu
    Are you really not getting married
    until I open a store?
[08:49] Himari
    Yup.
[08:50] Himari
    But who knows, maybe I'll end up
    in an arranged marriage.
[08:52] Himari
    Since you won't marry me.
[08:54] Yu
    Don't make it my fault!
[08:56] Himari
    It's gonna be with some old guy!
[08:58] Himari
    My poor young body will be
    tainted by old, greasy hands.
[09:02] Yu
    You throw in sexual jokes
    at the weirdest times.
[09:07] Yu
    Do those arrangements
    even happen these days?
[09:09] Himari
    Sure they do.
[09:10] Himari
    Even as soon as right after high school.
[09:14] Himari
    Especially since I'm
    from a long line of nobles.
[09:18] Himari
    It could even be for politics.
[09:20] Yu
    In that case, I'll cover
    for you one way or another.
[09:25] Yu
    As your best friend.
[09:27] Himari
    Bwa-ha! Just kidding!
[09:30] Himari
    No one gets set up like that these days!
[09:32] Himari
    You're reading too much erotic fiction!
[09:35] Yu
    You're the one who started
    mentioning greasy hands!
[09:40] Yu
    Daifuku, paws off the accessories, okay?
[09:44] Yu
    The shipping address for this one is...
[09:47] Himari
    I wish all guys were like you, Yu.
[09:51] (Flashback) Himari
    Dating is a drag, you know?
[09:54] (Flashback) Himari
    Besides, I don't get romance.
[09:58] (Flashback) Himari
    What about you? Don't you have a girlfriend?
[10:00] (Flashback) Yu
    With a hobby like this? No way.
[10:02] (Flashback) Himari
    Oh, right. We're actually
    really alike in a way.
[10:06] (Flashback) Himari
    I bet neither of us can get married.
[10:09] (Flashback) Himari
    Hey, I have an idea!
[10:10] (Flashback) Himari
    If we're both single when we
    turn thirty, let's live together!
[10:15] (Flashback) Yu
    What?
[10:16] (Flashback) Yu
    Setting aside that
    ridiculous offer, why thirty?
[10:20] (Flashback) Himari
    Just seemed like a good cut-off line.
[10:23] (Flashback) Himari
    That way, we can pour everything
    we have into opening your store!
[10:28] (Flashback) Himari
    If you're still alone at thirty, pick me.
[10:35] (Flashback) Yu
    Anyone but you, Himari.
[10:37] (Flashback) Yu
    I prefer someone more modest.
[10:40] (Flashback) Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[10:42] (Flashback) Himari
    Yu, you're the best!
[10:43] (Flashback) Himari
    I've never been dumped before!
[10:46] Yu
    Hey, get off me! Cut it out!
[10:47] (Flashback) Himari
    Wow, what a rush!
[10:50] Yu
    Saku-nee-san, I brought
    today's batch of orders.
[10:53] Sakura
    Hey idiot, I told you to text
    before coming over.
[10:57] Yu
    S-Sorry.
[10:58] Yu
    Oh, and I think we'll get more
    orders thanks to Himari's promo.
[11:02] Yu
    Can you spare some more supply fees?
[11:05] Senpai A
    Hey, Inuzuka-san.
[11:07] Senpai A
    You're not dating that loser
    you're always with, are you?
[11:10] Senpai A
    You could do so much better.
[11:12] Himari
    Is that any of your business, Senpai?
[11:14] Senpai A
    Um, I guess not.
[11:19] Himari
    What an idiot.
[11:21] Himari
    Anyone who doesn't get Yu
    has no right to judge us.
[11:26] Himari
    Can a boy-girl friendship
    survive? Of course it can!
[11:30] Himari
    How else would you explain this feeling?
[11:34] Himari
    Are you saying my desire
    to support Yu's dreams is
[11:36] Himari
    just a means to kiss him or sleep with him?
[11:40] Himari
    If I really wanted to kiss Yu,
    I wouldn't go through all that trouble.
[11:44] Himari
    When Yu finds a girlfriend one day,
    I'd want her to accept us.
[11:49] Himari
    It'd be depressing to part ways
    with Yu just because he found a girlfriend.
[11:56] Yu
    I'll get one for Himari, too.
[12:04] Yu
    Whoa, she's gorgeous.
[12:08] Yu
    Shit, she saw me staring.
[12:13] Yu
    Pretty girls aren't my thing,
    but I like them.
[12:16] Yu
    It feels like a huge contradiction, I know.
[12:18] Yu
    But I use them as reference
    for my accessories.
[12:22] Yu
    Maybe something from the neck down?
[12:26] Yu
    Her nails would pair well with...
[12:28] Yu
    A bracelet!
[12:30] Yu
    That queen of the night...
[12:31] Yu
    I sold it back at the bazaar.
[12:33] Yu
    I figured only Himari still had
    an accessory from back then—
[12:40] Rion
    No way!
[12:40] Rion
    It broke? How?
[12:52] Yu
    Hey. Want me to fix it?
[12:56] Yu
    I'm not sure why.
[12:58] Yu
    But I found myself staring
    at the dark-haired beauty.
[13:02] Yu
    Usually, I can barely lock eyes
    with someone I just met.
[13:06] Rion
    Excuse me?
[13:08] Rion
    What do you want?
[13:09] Yu
    S-Sorry, it seemed really
    important to you, that's all.
[13:12] Yu
    Forget I mentioned it!
[13:14] Yu
    Damn, that sucked!
[13:16] Yu
    If Himari ever found out, she'd squeal
    with happiness and yell "Bwa-ha!" at me.
[13:20] Yu
    She can't know about this.
[13:21] Yu
    I'll take it to my grave!

[14:02] Himari
    Someone still had one of your early pieces!
[14:06] Yu
    I guess.
[14:07] Yu
    But I don't recognize that girl as
    one of my customers.
[14:10] Girl C
    Natsume-kun! You have a visitor!
[14:13] Makishima
    Sup, Natsu!
[14:16] Makishima
    I figured you were lonely.
[14:18] Yu
    Hey, it's the womanizer.
[14:22] Makishima
    That's no way to greet a friend!
[14:23] Makishima
    But I like that about you!
[14:26] Himari
    Hey, it's Makishima-kun! What's up?
[14:29] Makishima
    Hi there, Himari-chan. How's it going?
[14:33] Himari
    Just living my best high
    school life. Thanks to you.
[14:37] Makishima
    Glad to hear that. I am lending
    you my dear Natsu, after all.
[14:43] Himari
    You mean my Yu? Thanks
    for always watching out for him.
[14:47] Yu
    Why are these two fighting
    over which one owns me?
[14:51] Yu
    Didn't you two go out in middle school?
[14:55] Yu
    Why don't you get along?
[14:58] Himari
    I dated him out of boredom,
    but man, it was a nightmare.
[15:03] Makishima
    You really despise me that much?
[15:05] Makishima
    I'm not sure why.
[15:07] Himari
    You had five girlfriends,
    and I somehow took all the blame!
[15:09] Himari
    Do you know how bad I got bullied?
[15:15] Makishima
    None of it would've happened
    if you didn't accept the
[15:17] Makishima
    offer of someone you don't even like.
[15:19] Makishima
    You figured I'd be
    the same as any other guy.
[15:20] Yu
    Jeez, what a scumbag.
[15:22] Makishima
    I'd say it was a small price
    for a good lesson learned.
[15:22] Yu
    He's even a pro at gaslighting.
[15:25] Himari
    Like you're one to talk!
[15:26] Yu
    Wait, why did you come over to visit?
[15:29] Makishima
    Oh, right.
[15:31] Makishima
    Natsu, did you talk to a girl
    by the vending machines yesterday?
[15:36] Yu
    A girl?
[15:39] Yu
    Was that your girlfriend?
[15:41] Makishima
    No, no. That's not it.
[15:44] Makishima
    Come on, Rin-chan!
[15:45] Makishima
    You wanna fix your bracelet, right?
[15:50] Rion
    Hello.
[15:52] Himari
    Is that Enocchi?
[15:54] Rion
    Hii-chan?
[15:58] Himari
    Who would've thought the girl Yu
    was looking for was Enocchi.
[16:02] Yu
    I wasn't looking for her, but okay.
[16:05] Yu
    It's a small world out here in the boonies.
[16:08] Yu
    Enomoto aka "Enocchi."
    And Rion aka "Rin-chan."
[16:11] Himari
    But I had no clue she was childhood
    friends with Makishima-kun.
[16:15] Himari
    She went to another middle
    school, so it makes sense.
[16:19] Himari
    We used to hang out a few times
    a year in elementary school.
[16:22] Himari
    My brother and Enocchi's sister are
    from the same class.
[16:27] Himari
    Oh yeah, and Yu!
[16:28] Yu
    What? Me?
[16:30] Himari
    Remember that second day of the bazaar?
[16:32] Himari
    Enocchi's sister was the one
    who promoted your accessories.
[16:35] Himari
    She was modeling for magazines back then.
[16:38] Himari
    Now, she's all over
    commercials and magazines.
[16:42] Himari
    I bet that's where Enocchi got the bracelet.
[16:45] Yu
    Sounds pretty likely.
[16:48] Yu
    She probably has no idea I made it.
[16:51] Yu
    Um, do you mind if I take a look?
[16:55] Rion
    Here.
[17:00] Yu
    The joints look worn out.
[17:03] Yu
    I should be able to replace them.
[17:06] Rion
    Don't tell me you can't fix it.
[17:08] Yu
    Um, it's uhh...
[17:09] Himari
    Stop, Enocchi! It's all good!
[17:12] Rion
    What?
[17:13] Himari
    Yu's a scaredy cat, so take it easy on him.
[17:15] Himari
    He's not great with new
    people, but he's trying!
[17:20] Rion
    I'm not being mean.
[17:22] Himari
    You should see your face, though. Look!
[17:30] Himari
    Enocchi?
[17:32] Yu
    Y-You okay?
[17:35] Rion
    You said you could fix it, so hurry up!
[17:38] Yu
    Man, she really took a huge fall.
[17:38] Rion
    Ugh, this sucks! You said it'd get fixed!
[17:40] Yu
    She's... How do I say this...
[17:43] Himari
    You're still such a klutz!
[17:46] Yu
    She flat out said it!
[17:47] Rion
    That was totally your fault, Hii-chan!
[17:50] Himari
    I dunno, I think it was clearly on...
[17:55] Himari
    Bwa-ha—
[17:58] Rion
    You've always been so insensitive.
[18:00] Rion
    I haven't forgotten that you stole
    my favorite keychain and toys!
[18:06] Himari
    Enocchi, I give up!
[18:07] Yu
    Wow, Himari's actually losing.
[18:10] Yu
    I could use some pointers.
[18:12] Rion
    And don't remind me
    of that PE class from freshman year.
[18:15] Himari
    That was just—! I couldn't help myself!
[18:18] Himari
    I had to grab them for myself!
[18:20] Himari
    That was a once-in-a-lifetime
    chance! Until...
[18:26] Himari
    Second chance!
[18:37] Yu
    What the hell are you doing?! Stop!
[18:39] Himari
    You'd do the same
    if these were within your grasp!
[18:42] Yu
    No, I wouldn't!
[18:43] Yu
    And don't say that in front of her!
[18:44] Himari
    Stop covering your own ass, you coward!
[18:47] Rion
    Shut up! You'll pay
    for years of embarrassing me!
SIGN    I grabbed my friends boobs (again) today.
[18:54] Yu
    I think these parts need to be replaced.
[18:57] Yu
    I'll leave the resin over the flower as-is.
[19:01] Yu
    Alright, I'll get started.
[19:08] Rion
    Hii-chan, is he...?
[19:10] Himari
    He's always like this when he's working.
[19:13] Himari
    When it comes to his craft,
    he's totally locked in.
[19:17] Himari
    I don't think he even hears us talking.
[19:20] Himari
    Wanna try something?
[19:21] Rion
    Try what?
[19:28] Yu
    Phew. All done... Wait...
[19:33] Yu
    What's wrong?
[19:33] Himari
    You gotta see this.
[19:39] Yu
    Himari! What did you do?
[19:41] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[19:42] Himari
    Did you hear that?
[19:43] Himari
    He screamed like a girl. I can't!
[19:45] Yu
    I can't get them out! Do something!
[19:48] Yu
    What the—? Ow!
[19:51] Rion
    Hii-chan, you're so mean!
[19:54] Yu
    You're guilty too, Enomoto-san!
[19:59] Yu
    What do you think?
[20:04] Rion
    Thanks!
[20:09] Yu
    I'm heading home before
    the rain comes down. See ya.
[20:12] Himari
    You could just take the bus with us!
[20:15] Rion
    Hii-chan, are you two...?
[20:18] Himari
    Yu? We've been best friends
     since middle school.
[20:22] Rion
    So you're not dating?
[20:23] Himari
    Uh-oh, is he your type?
[20:25] Rion
    N-No, it's not that!
[20:27] Himari
    Yu's the best when he's
    making his accessories.
[20:31] Himari
    Not that she'd understand.
[20:36] Himari
    I probably won't ever be
    able to leave Yu's side.
[20:40] Himari
    We'll be best friends forever, until...
[20:44] Himari
    Yu quits making accessories.
[20:48] Yu
    Aw man, here it comes!
[20:51] Rion
    Hey, Hii-chan?
[20:53] Rion
    Have you ever been asked out
    by someone you've never seen before?
[20:57] Himari
    Come again?
[20:59] Himari
    You mean like people online?
[21:01] Rion
    I guess it feels kinda like that.
[21:06] Rion
    My mom used to tell me...
[21:08] Rion
    Only those with kind hearts can
    make things that move people.

[21:13] Himari

    Is this about craftsmanship?

    with people online?
[21:21] Rion
    I had no idea what they looked like.
[21:24] Rion
    But I had a feeling they
    were someone nearby.
[21:27] Himari
    Really? What made you think—
[21:31] Rion
    I knew because their work
    was always in your pictures.
[21:38] Himari
    Umm, Enocchi, maybe we can talk—
[21:40] Rion
    That store that makes your accessories...
[21:44] Rion
    It's Natsume-kun, isn't it?
[21:47] Himari
    I was too arrogant.
[21:50] Himari
    I figured only I knew Yu for who he was.
[21:56] Himari
    As if believing that our friendship was
    above everything else
[22:00] Himari
    was nothing more than
    my own wishful thinking.

[00:01] Yu
    When did I last talk
    with a girl that wasn't Himari?
[00:07] Yu
    Mornin'. You work the night shift?
[00:09] Sakura
    Yup. Jeez...
[00:12] Sakura
    I thought I was tired,
    but you don't look too hot yourself.
[00:16] Yu
    I guess I'm just not great
    at handling change.
[00:19] Sakura
    You sit alone and fidget
    around with accessories.
[00:22] Sakura
    What kind of change could
    you possibly encounter?
[00:25] Yu
    Ouch, Saku-nee-san...
[00:30] Sakura
    So a girl asked you
    to fix your bracelet, huh?
[00:35] Sakura
    Maybe it'll be good inspiration.
[00:38] Yu
    Inspiration? How?
[00:40] Sakura
    Well you're always making stuff
    based on Himari-chan's image.
[00:45] Sakura
    To be honest, your accessories
    all look the same recently.
[00:50] Sakura
    They just give off the same vibe.
[00:54] Sakura
    Like a garden frozen in time.
[00:57] Yu
    Garden?
[00:58] Sakura
    Don't tell me you didn't notice.
[01:03] Sakura
    There's no romantic passion...
[01:05] Sakura
    Or despair from heartbreak.
[01:08] Sakura
    Your work could use some
    of that emotional range.
[01:11] Yu
    B-But sales are doing great.
[01:14] Sakura
    You sure?
[01:15] Sakura
    Do you even have loyal repeat customers?
[01:19] Sakura
    Look. We have a deal, remember?
[01:23] Sakura
    If you can't open your own store
    by the time you're thirty,
[01:25] Sakura
    give it up and take over
    our convenience store.
[01:28] Yu
    I-I know.
[01:30] Sakura
    Of course, you can marry
    Himari-chan in that case.
[01:33] Sakura
    You'll need to pay
    for things after retirement,

[03:14] Yu
    She's right, though.
[03:15] Yu
    I don't have many repeat customers.
[03:21] Yu
    I've always thought every
    accessory is one of a kind.
[03:25] Yu
    That their purpose is to help the owner
    shine for a brief moment in their life.
[03:29] Yu
    But that's just an excuse.
[03:31] Makishima
    You never told me what happened
    with Natsu yesterday.
[03:35] Makishima
    How did it go?
[03:36] Rion
    Nothing happened, obviously.
[03:39] Makishima
    But you're gonna ask him, right?
[03:43] Makishima
    Don't you want help from me,
    your wingman?
[03:47] Makishima
    So you can figure out your next move?
[03:51] Rion
    I didn't ask for your help.
[03:53] Himari
    There she is! Enocchi!
[03:56] Himari
    Oh, look who's here.
[03:58] Makishima
    Is that any way to greet someone?
[04:00] Makishima
    Besides, I was talking with Rin-chan first.
[04:03] Himari
    You're done, right?
[04:05] Makishima
    Actually, we were just getting
    to the juicy part.
[04:08] Girl A
    Makishima-senpai!
[04:11] Makishima
    What's the matter?
[04:11] Girl A
    Could you take a look at my form?
[04:15] Himari
    Aren't those the girls from the Tennis
    Club you've been trying to get with?
[04:19] Himari
    You shouldn't keep them waiting!
[04:22] Makishima
    No need to warn me, Himari-chan.
[04:25] Himari
    Now that we've got him out of the way...
[04:28] Himari
    Enocchi, guess what? I've got a great idea!
[04:32] Himari
    Wanna hear?
[04:33] Rion
    I have a bad feeling about this.
[04:37] Yu
    You guys are the only ones who can
    make me feel better in times of need.
[04:40] Himari
    Hey, Yu!
[04:42] Himari
    No work today?
[04:44] Yu
    After I'm done here,
    I'm heading home for the day.
[04:46] Yu
    What about you?
[04:47] Himari
    I guess I'll help then!
[04:50] Himari
    You seemed deep in
    thought during class today.
[04:53] Yu
    Way to notice, best friend.
[04:55] Himari
    So what's up?
[04:57] Yu
    I'm thinking about switching
    things up for my next piece.
[05:01] Yu
    The concepts: "romantic passion"
    and "despair from heartbreak!"
[05:05] Himari
    Bwa-ha! What the heck?!
[05:08] Himari
    You're into romance all the sudden?
[05:11] Himari
    So that's why!
[05:13] Himari
    Sakura-san definitely has a point.
[05:16] Yu
    You think so?
[05:17] Himari
    You've always made stuff you liked yourself.
[05:21] Himari
    But you need to value
    the customer's perspective, too!
[05:26] Yu
    The customer's perspective?
[05:28] Yu
    So let's say I'll work on that.
[05:30] Yu
    What do you think about
    making romance the concept?
[05:33] Himari
    It makes sense.
[05:34] Himari
    Your main target is female customers.
[05:36] Himari
    And girls love romance!
[05:39] Yu
    I thought you said you
    don't get that kinda stuff.
[05:44] Himari
    I don't, but you know how guys come after me.
[05:48] Himari
    It's game over by the time they confess.
[05:51] Himari
    So I'm at the top of the food chain!
[05:53] Yu
    Well then, Miss "Queen of Romance"...
[05:57] Yu
    What exactly is love?
[05:58] Himari
    Wanting to kiss or have sex with someone?
[06:01] Yu
    Isn't that lust?
[06:03] Himari
    But you don't feel that stuff
    without romance, right?
[06:07] Himari
    So wanting to kiss someone and liking
    someone happens at the same time!
[06:12] Yu
    So how's that different from lust?
[06:15] Himari
    Maybe lust is just a receptor
    for romantic attraction.
[06:19] Himari
    By the way, what kinda stuff turns you on?
[06:21] Yu
    You're asking me that?
[06:23] Himari
    You like bigger boobs better?
[06:25] Himari
    Do you like black hair?
    Or some red undertones?
[06:28] Himari
    Oh, and long hair only!
[06:30] Himari
    How would kissing Enocchi make you feel?
[06:32] Yu
    How did Enomoto-san enter
    the picture all the sudden?
[06:35] Himari
    I just figured it's easier to imagine
    with a model in mind.
[06:40] Himari
    I'm not trying to probe
    your compatibility or anything.
[06:44] Yu
    Wait.
[06:45] Yu
    Is she giving me the "Ugh,
    virgins are so helpless" look?
[06:50] Yu
    We're basically equally
    inexperienced, you know.
[06:55] Yu
    I dunno.
[06:57] Yu
    I've never looked at a girl
    and wanted to kiss her.
[07:00] Himari
    Wanna try it out?
[07:02] Himari
    Try out kissing...
[07:04] Himari
    with me.
[07:05] Yu
    What?!
[07:07] Yu
    We can't.
[07:09] Himari
    Why not?
[07:09] Yu
    'Cause wanting to kiss someone
    means romantic attraction.
[07:14] Yu
    Is that how you see me?
[07:17] Himari
    Nope! You're just a best friend!
[07:21] Himari
    Neither of us know what it's like
    to wanna kiss someone, right?
[07:25] Himari
    If we try it out, we might realize
    we've known the feeling all along!
[07:29] Yu
    I gotta hand it to her.
[07:31] Yu
    She definitely comes up original ideas.
[07:34] Yu
    But this one's gotta be
    the stupidest one yet.
[07:36] Yu
    That's no reason to kiss your friend.
[07:39] Yu
    Hey—!
[07:41] Himari
    If you don't feel anything, how's it
    any different from holding hands like this?
[07:45] Himari
    It's the same skin-to-skin contact.
[07:48] Yu
    Don't say that like I'm some loser
    secretly wanting to hold hands with girls.
[07:52] Himari
    I'm holding hands on my own accord.
[07:55] Yu
    Then that makes you the loser.
[07:57] Himari
    Don't worry. I won't do this
    with anyone else.
[08:03] Himari
    Ready?
[08:04] Yu
    Hold up. Wait, calm down!
[08:06] Yu
    She's just kidding like usual.
[08:08] Yu
    She'll "Bwa-ha!" at me soon enough.
[08:11] Yu
    But why are her cheeks red?
[08:13] Yu
    And her eyes watering?
[08:14] Yu
    No, don't tug at my tie!
[08:16] Yu
    She's getting way too close.
[08:20] Yu
    I-I can feel her breath!
[08:21] Yu
    Why is my heart beating so hard?
[08:23] Yu
    This isn't funny.
[08:26] Yu
    But man, she's so pretty!
[08:34] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[08:38] Yu
    I figured.
[08:41] Himari
    My bad! I couldn't help myself.
[08:43] Yu
    I knew it was a joke.
[08:45] Himari
    Besides, it'd be bad
    if I did that with you right now.
[08:50] Yu
    There she goes.
[08:51] Yu
    "But wasn't I so cute when
    I was tricking you into kissing me?"
[08:55] Yu
    Or something like that.
[08:57] Yu
    Yeah, just adorable. Congrats.
[09:00] Himari
    Alright!
[09:01] Himari
    I'll repay you for being mean.
[09:04] Himari
    Keep this Saturday afternoon open for me?
[09:06] Yu
    Saturday afternoon? For what?
[09:09] Himari
    It's a surprise!
[09:12] Yu
    Later, that Saturday...
[09:15] Hibari
    I haven't seen you in forever!
    How've you been?
[09:17] Yu
    Um, fine.
[09:18] Hibari
    You haven't dropped by much
    lately. I've missed you!
[09:23] Hibari
    When Himari asked me
    to pick you up, I couldn't resist.
[09:26] Yu
    I'm sorry for the trouble.
    Oh, and the sushi the other day.
[09:31] Hibari
    It's my pleasure!
[09:33] Hibari
    I need to look after my
    little brother-in-law.
[09:36] Yu
    He threw that in so casually,
    I can't even push back.
[09:39] Yu
    Um, I'm not used to luxury sushi.
[09:42] Yu
    It's a waste to spend it on me.
[09:46] Hibari
    See, that's what I love about you,
    little brother of mine!
[09:50] Yu
    I wish I could combine you
    with Saku-nee-san and divide it in half.
[09:54] Hibari
    Sakura-kun?
[09:55] Hibari
    I suppose she's never been one
    to mince her words with anyone.
[09:59] Hibari
    But her straightforwardness is her charm.
[10:02] Yu
    She really let me have it the other day.
[10:05] Yu
    You two were classmates, right?
[10:07] Hibari
    That's right.
[10:07] Hibari
    In high school, everyone knew
    Sakura-kun as a brilliant talent.
[10:13] Yu
    I wonder how we're so different
    when we're siblings.
[10:17] Hibari
    Yu-kun, you have talent
    as an accessories maker.
[10:20] Hibari
    What's not to love?
[10:22] Yu
    Thank you.
[10:24] Hibari
    You're welcome to work at our place
    anytime you want, my dear little brother!
[10:30] Yu
    As a teenage guy, his overtly welcome
    mood oddly has the opposite effect.
[10:37] Yu
    What plans do you have
    after this, Hibari-san?
[10:40] Hibari
    I'm off to work so I can beat those useless
    geezers in upper management to a pulp.
[10:45] Hibari
    As much as I'd love to hang out
    with you and shop for anime merch...
[10:50] Hibari
    That's the corporate hustle life!
[10:53] Yu
    I'm pretty sure he said something
    terrifying before he sped off.
[10:56] Yu
    Like Himari, you can never tell
    if he's kidding or serious.
[11:00] Himari
    Hey, Yu!
[11:02] Himari
    You're late! Was there traffic?
[11:05] Yu
    Um, not really.
[11:07] Himari
    Yu, don't I always say that
    good style starts with yourself?
[11:13] Yu
    "You have such a cute and stylish
    girl waiting on you hand and foot."
[11:16] Yu
    "The least you could do is dress better
    than like you just got off work."
[11:20] Yu
    Is that it?
[11:21] Yu
    I mean, she definitely is cute and stylish.
[11:25] Yu
    Well, if your brother weren't
    rushing me, I could've changed.
[11:29] Himari
    We have a special guest today.
    It's not just us, you know!
[11:41] Rion
    Hello.
[11:44] Yu
    Huh?
[11:46] Yu
    U-Um...
[11:48] Yu
    Is Makishima coming, too?
[11:50] Rion
    Shii-kun has practice today.
[11:52] Yu
    O-Oh.
[11:54] Yu
    Wait, didn't we break the ice the other day?
[11:58] Yu
    Is she one of those video game characters
    whose interactions reset every day?
[12:02] Himari
    Ahem. By the way, Yu.
[12:04] Himari
    What's the imagery for your next product?
[12:07] Yu
    Next product? I dunno.
[12:10] Himari
    Well that's not good.
[12:11] Himari
    You gotta try new things
    if you wanna revamp your style!
[12:17] Yu
    Sure, but new things like what?
[12:20] Himari
    Lucky for you!
[12:21] Himari
    Enocchi agreed to stand
    in as a temporary model for you!
[12:25] Yu
    What?
[12:26] Yu
    Wait, you told her those
    accessories were made by me?
[12:29] Himari
    I didn't have to.
[12:30] Himari
    Enocchi figured it out on her own.
[12:32] Rion
    You had a huge stock of parts,
    so I knew something was up.
[12:37] Yu
    R-Right.
[12:39] Himari
    Anyways, Enocchi asked me how she
    could thank you for fixing her bracelet.
[12:44] Himari
    So I thought it'd be nice to have
    a different model for a change.
[12:49] Yu
    Makes sense.
[12:51] Himari
    Man, you're lucky you get to be with
    such pretty girls under the guise of work.
[12:57] Himari
    But Enocchi says she's game!
[12:59] Yu
    But it's so sudden—
[13:03] Himari
    Switching up the model is just
    the inspiration you need!
[13:06] Himari
    We can shoot at Enocchi's
    confectionery shop!
[13:10] Yu
    For real? Isn't that a bit much?
[13:12] Himari
    The next holiday should be
    pretty slow, it'll be fine!
[13:16] Himari
    Right?
[13:17] Rion
    U-Um, I should ask my mom—Ahh!
[13:25] Yu
    Hey, Himari. This
    is too brash, even for you.
[13:30] Himari
    Enocchi's just as shy as you are.
[13:31] Himari
    If I didn't push for it,
    nothing would happen!
[13:34] Yu
    Huh? What do you mean?
[13:37] Himari
    It's a secret.
[13:41] Yu
    Yes!
[13:43] Rion
    He seems different than usual...
[13:46] Himari
    Yup, like a kid in a candy store.
[13:48] Himari
    Hey, Yu! Don't leave Enocchi alone!
[13:53] Himari
    What about this garnet stone?
[13:55] Yu
    Yeah! Enomoto-san, you look great in red.
[13:58] Himari
    If we're sticking with warm tones,
    this carnelian looks nice, too.
[14:02] Yu
    Orange? Yeah, I like that, too!
[14:04] Rion
    Natsume-kun, Hii-chan, what are you doing?
[14:07] Yu
    Oops, sorry.
[14:08] Yu
    We're seeing what colors
    and accessories pair well with you.
[14:12] Yu
    Oh no, was I being creepy?
[14:14] Rion
    Not creepy. I'm just surprised.
[14:16] Himari
    You can say it. Yu's a total creep!
[14:19] Yu
    Hey. How about "Yu's not
    creepy at all!" instead?
[14:22] Himari
    Um, but you are creepy.
[14:24] Himari
    Sorry to break it to you.
[14:26] Himari
    I mean, you were talking
    to yourself in an accessories shop!
[14:30] Yu
    You didn't need to take it that far!
[14:32] Yu
    Hey, don't run off! Himari-san!
[14:36] Himari
    Enocchi really laughs at anything!
[14:38] Yu
    Stop making fun of people.
[14:40] Himari
    Hey, Yu.
[14:42] Himari
    Enocchi has great skin,
    so we should shoot some close-ups!
[14:46] Yu
    Her nape is definitely a selling point.
[14:49] Yu
    Do you mind if we try some on?
[14:52] Rion
    Th-That's fine.
[14:53] Himari
    Yu, could you put that necklace on Enocchi?
[14:57] Yu
    I mean sure, but...
[14:59] Yu
    Wouldn't that make her uncomfortable?
[15:02] Himari
    You're fine, right Enocchi?
[15:04] Rion
    I-I guess...
[15:07] Yu
    Right. She doesn't see me that way.
[15:11] Yu
    "Ew, Natsume-kun. You're
    such a self-conscious creep!"
[15:14] Yu
    Better get this over with
    before she says that.
[15:17] Yu
    Okay, sit still.
[15:23] Yu
    There! How's—
[15:24] Himari
    You know what I've been
    thinking about all day?
[15:27] Himari
    How sexy Enocchi's fashion sense is!
[15:31] Yu
    Huh?!
[15:32] Yu
    Himari! Shut up!
[15:33] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[15:34] Himari
    Just kidding!
[15:35] Himari
    Yu, your reaction screams "virgin!"
[15:39] Rion
    Hii-chan!
[15:39] Himari
    Ow, ow! Don't grab me like I'm a cat!
[15:42] Yu
    You're wrong for thinking it was
    that harmless in the first place.
[15:47] Yu
    We've picked up enough parts.
[15:49] Yu
    So I'll test out some flowers,
    then design a new product to shoot.
[15:54] Rion
    Okay.
[15:56] Rion
    Wait, is that—
[15:59] Rion
    Wow. They're so pretty.
[16:00] Yu
    This place uses a lot
    of flowers in their displays.
[16:04] Rion
    It's like that one time!
[16:06] Yu
    That one time?
[16:08] Rion
    N-Never mind.
[16:11] Himari
    Made up your mind?
[16:13] Yu
    R-Right.
[16:15] Yu
    I'm thinking warm tones.
[16:16] Yu
    Something we're not already
    growing in our garden.
[16:20] Himari
    How about roses?
[16:22] Yu
    Nah, that would feel like
    a beauty with thorns.
[16:26] Yu
    Enomoto-san's more like...
[16:29] Himari
    You're right, she's the opposite.
[16:31] Yu
    She seems thorny,
    but she's actually really sincere.
[16:34] Himari
    I told you. She's cute, right?
[16:37] Yu
    Sure, she's cute but...
[16:40] Yu
    What are you doing?
[16:41] Himari
    I'm getting something to drink.
[16:42] Himari
    You should apologize to Enocchi.
[16:45] Yu
    You mean for what you did?
[16:48] Yu
    Hey, don't leave us alone.
[16:51] Himari
    Think of it as practice!
[16:52] Himari
    I'll pay you back later.
[16:56] Himari
    I've made my choice.
[16:57] Himari
    I'll support their love.
[17:00] Himari
    I always imagined keeping Yu for myself until
    someone who fully understood him came along.
[17:09] Yu
    Um, Enomoto-san...
[17:10] Yu
    Sorry for what happened back there.
[17:12] Rion
    Th-That was Hii-chan's fault.
[17:15] Yu
    You two were friends
    in elementary school, right?
[17:18] Yu
    Was she always that brash?
[17:20] Rion
    Nope.
[17:22] Rion
    My mom and I used to
    deliver cakes to her house.
[17:25] Rion
    She was really quiet back then.
[17:28] Rion
    She was always reading books in her room.
[17:30] Rion
    Her mom asked me to be her friend,
    so I gave her cookies.
[17:36] Yu
    I can't really imagine that.
[17:40] Yu
    Wh-What kind of flowers would you like?
[17:43] Yu
    I was thinking the model should
    decide the flower this time.
[17:47] Rion
    Big ones.
[17:49] Rion
    I like the big kind of flowers.
[17:52] Yu
    Big flowers... That'd suit you perfectly.
[17:55] Yu
    You're so pretty, big flowers
    wouldn't overwhelm you.
[17:58] Yu
    N-Not in a creepy way!
[18:00] Rion
    I know. You don't need to keep saying that.
[18:03] Rion
    So what's the plan?
[18:05] Yu
    Big flowers and the concept of romance.
[18:08] Yu
    How about tulips?
[18:10] Yu
    They represent "love" and "thoughtfulness."
[18:13] Yu
    They're actually really sensual.
[18:16] Yu
    Depending on how they bloom,
     they can feel different.
[18:18] Rion
    How they bloom?
[18:19] Rion
    They're not all the same?
[18:21] Yu
    It changes with temperature.
[18:23] Yu
    Flower shops monitor that stuff,
    but it's obvious when they grow outside.
[18:27] Yu
    I used to observe them... Sorry!
[18:30] Yu
    That was probably a weird topic.
[18:32] Rion
    Why's that?
[18:33] Yu
    I've never been into baseball or soccer.
[18:36] Yu
    I didn't have friends.
[18:37] Yu
    I've been told a million
    times that I'm boring.
[18:41] Yu
    L-Let me go check out!
[18:42] Yu
    I'll meet you outside.
[18:45] Rion
    Why do you like flowers so much?
[18:49] Yu
    Do I have to answer?
[18:51] Yu
    I appreciate you being a model,
    but that's kind of—
[18:55] Rion
    Tell me.
[18:57] Yu
    Queen of the night...
[18:59] Yu
    It only blooms for one night.
[19:01] Yu
    But its scent is so captivating,
    keepers can't help but grow them.
[19:07] Yu
    When I was in elementary school,
    my family and I went to a botanical garden.
[19:11] Yu
    I ended up wandering off on my own.
[19:20] Yu
    This girl I never saw
    before was lost like me.
[19:24] Yu
    So I looked for her parents with her.
[19:29] Yu
    And used what little allowance I had.
[19:33] Yu
    She said she'd take it home
    to remember me by.
[19:37] Yu
    That she'd wear it in her hair every day.
[19:40] Yu
    Obviously, I'm sure they wilted.
[19:43] Yu
    That's how I started learning about flowers.
[19:45] Yu
    So I could preserve them
    for as long as possible.
[19:48] Yu
    And maybe they'd find her one day.
[19:51] Yu
    S-See? I told you it's creepy!
[19:52] Yu
    Enough story time.
[19:54] Yu
    I haven't told anyone besides Himari this—
[19:56] Rion
    It was a hibiscus, wasn't it?
[19:58] Rion
    The flower she wore in her hair.
[20:00] Rion
    It was so beautiful.
[20:02] Rion
    So big and bright red.
[20:05] Rion
    You told her they were like
    the color of her hair.
[20:10] Rion
    I always hated my hair color,
    but ever since then,
[20:14] Rion
    it hasn't seemed all that bad.
[20:18] Rion
    Natsume-kun, your flowers did find her.
[20:25] Yu
    Thanks for letting me know...
[20:27] Rion
    Yu-kun!
[20:36] Yu
    The hibiscus represents
    "delicate beauty" and "new love."
[20:49] Yu
    Did Himari head home without us?
[20:52] Rion
    Yu-kun.
[20:53] Rion
    Can I have your number, too?
SIGN    Rion
[20:54] Yu
    O-Oh, um, okay.
[21:10] (Flashback) Rion
    Two years ago, my sister
    brought home this bracelet.
[21:14] (Flashback) Rion
    And a boy's face popped in my head.
[21:16] (Flashback) Rion
    He gave me a flower at the botanical garden.
[21:19] Himari
    It's a story I've heard over
    and over from Yu.
[21:23] Himari
    It felt like fate.
[21:26] Himari
    A person way closer to Yu
    than any best friend.
[21:29] Himari
    That's why I wanted to set them up.
[21:33] Himari
    But I was wrong.
[21:36] Himari
    Those two didn't need my help.
[21:41] Himari
    Of course I'm happy.
[21:43] Himari
    I love them both,
    and they'll be happy together.
[21:46] Himari
    Why wouldn't I be excited for them?
[21:49] Himari
    But...
[21:50] Himari
    I've never seen Yu's eyes like that.
[21:55] Himari
    In that moment, Yu seemed so far away.
[21:58] Himari
    I couldn't go back.
[22:01] Himari
    But I'm not sure why.

    What do you mean?

    Woah, she drew these with milk and cocoa.
[03:20] Yu
    It's so detailed!
[03:24] Rion
    This is pretty much
    the only thing I'm good at.
[03:28] Rion
    I'll see you after school.
[03:32] Himari
    Am I sensing some love blooming?
[03:36] Himari
    She calls you "Yu-kun," huh?

    It's not like we're dating, you know.
[03:52] Himari
    What? Why not?
[03:53] Himari
    She said she was your first crush!

    Hey! I knew you were listening back there!
[03:59] Himari
    Oops.

    Get back here!

    Figures why you left
    without saying anything.
[04:04] Yu
    Is this your way of being nice?
[04:06] Yu
    You've been acting weird lately.
[04:07] Yu
    Bringing up Enomoto-san out of
    nowhere, ridiculous set-ups.
[04:11] Yu
    Trying to kiss as practice...
[04:13] Yu
    What were you thinki—
[04:16] Yu
    What's going on?
[04:17] Yu
    Why are her ears all red?
[04:19] Yu
    Is this a pizza commercial?
[04:20] Yu
    Is she thin crispy dough
    with cheese-stuffed crust?
[04:23] Yu
    You're supposed to be the one eating!
[04:25] Himari
    You're the one saying weird stuff.
[04:27] Yu
    I just reiterated what you said to me!
[04:29] Himari
    Yeah, I'm saying that's weird!
[04:31] Yu
    But you're the one who...
[04:34] Yu
    Anyway, Enomoto-san and I aren't like that.
[04:37] Yu
    Besides, she may have been my first crush,
[04:39] Yu
    but I doubt I meant anything to her.
[04:42] Yu
    She doesn't need anyone
    probing her about it.
[04:45] Yu
    So could you cut it out with the—
[04:49] Himari
    I think you may actually be an idiot.
[04:51] Yu
    Gimme a break!
[04:52] Yu
    This entire thing is your faul—
[04:54] Himari
    Drink this and cool down.
[04:56] Yu
    You're not off the hook!
[05:00] Yu
    What's with her?
[05:02] Yu
    She's always been a tease,
    but not like that.
[05:06] Yu
    Don't replay it!
[05:09] Yu
    Cool it, Yu.
[05:11] Yu
    I hate to admit it.
[05:12] Yu
    But Himari was kinda cute back there.
[05:16] Yu
    The pigments that give flowers
    color also make them wither.
[05:20] Yu
    So we extract that using ethanol solution.
[05:22] Yu
    This draws out their coloring,
    and leaves them white like this.
[05:27] Rion
    That's so cool.
[05:28] Rion
    What about the color?
[05:29] Yu
    I'm using it to dye them.
[05:31] Yu
    It may seem like a waste of time,
[05:33] Yu
    but without this step,
    it won't last as an accessory.
[05:36] Rion
    Wow.
[05:39] Yu
    Himari, you better not push me.
[05:41] Yu
    "You think a girl as cute as
    me wants to tease you?"
[05:43] Yu
    "What a self-conscious creep!"
[05:46] Yu
    Something like that.
[05:47] Yu
    Just don't come up behind me, okay?
[05:51] Yu
    Enomoto-san, guard me.
[05:53] Rion
    Gotcha.

    The color should stick by tomorrow.

    It usually takes longer
    with Himari messing around.
[06:03] Himari
    You've changed, Yu.
[06:05] Himari
    When we're alone, I barely tease you,
    and you're all over me.
[06:08] Yu
    Can you not say that like it's true?
[06:11] Yu
    Especially in front of Enomoto-san.
[06:14] Himari
    Then if Enocchi weren't here,
    you'd try it again?
[06:17] Himari
    Kiss me...
[06:20] Himari
    and play pretend?

    Come on, don't bring that up!

    I thought you said it wasn't anything weird!

    that you'd ask me to try kissing you!

    So you admit it?
[06:33] Himari
    That you tried kissing with me?

    That's not the point!

    U-Um, I think it's time for band class.
[06:44] Yu
    E-Enomoto-san.
[06:49] Yu
    Himari!
[06:51] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[06:53] Himari
    Yu, you're such a dork!
[06:53] Yu
    You just wanted to get back
    at me for earlier!
[06:55] Himari
    Yeah, and?
[06:57] Yu
    Have some remorse!
[06:58] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[07:00] Himari
    Man, I wish I took a video.
[07:02] Himari
    That was hilarious, my tummy hurts.
[07:06] Himari
    I can't... Yu, help me up.
[07:07] Yu
    Jeez...
[07:21] Himari
    Wanna do it?
[07:23] Himari
    Enocchi thinks we did it anyway.
[07:26] Himari
    What harm would it do?
[07:28] Yu
    Th-That's not the issue.
[07:31] Himari
    Why not?
[07:32] Himari
    We're gonna do it anyway when we're thirty.
[07:35] Himari
    Or will you just be my excuse
    not to marry somebody else?
[07:38] Himari
    Is that what you want?
[07:39] Yu
    Y-You said that was a joke.
[07:41] Himari
    Yeah but...
[07:42] Himari
    I would never joke about
    that with anyone else.
[07:48] Himari
    You're gonna make accessories
    about love, right?
[07:51] Himari
    Why not do that with me?
[07:58] Yu
    Hang on, what's happening?
[07:59] Yu
    Are we actually gonna do it?
[08:01] Yu
    That wouldn't be a problem, I guess.
[08:03] Yu
    We're all alone here.
[08:06] Yu
    We could if I want.
[08:07] Yu
    But aren't we like, best friends?
[08:09] Yu
    This isn't a friend,
    it's a friend with benefits.
[08:12] Yu
    Himari means more to me than that.
[08:14] Yu
    Dammit! She's too cute!
[08:17] Yu
    Why does she have to look so good?
[08:19] Yu
    How have I been able to see her like
    any other guy friend all this time?
[08:26] Yu
    Yo, Himari. Show me your left hand.
[08:28] Himari
    Are you planning on tying me up?
[08:31] Himari
    Naughty Yu!
[08:37] Yu
    Himari!
[08:39] Yu
    You were filming me?!
[08:39] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[08:42] Himari
    I'm having way too much fun teasing Enocchi!
[08:45] Yu
    I can take it, but don't trick Enomoto-san!
[08:51] Yu
    I-I was really about to lose it just now.
[08:55] Himari
    I gave you the green light,
    so do it already! Idiot.
[08:58] Yu
    Did you say something?
[09:00] Himari
    Hmm? What's up?
[09:03] Himari
    Wimp. Coward. Flower nerd.
[09:05] Yu
    I can tell you're talking shit!
[09:07] Himari
    Ew, a hysteric dude? Creep!
[09:08] Yu
    How are you getting home?
[09:10] Himari
    I'm taking the bus today!
[09:18] Yu
    What the hell does she want from me?
[09:31] Makishima
    Natsu, I hear you're quite popular
    with the ladies these days.
[09:37] Yu
    Who was that girl?
[09:39] Makishima
    Nothing serious.
[09:41] Yu
    Is that so?
[09:42] Makishima
    So how far have you gone with Rin-chan?
[09:46] Makishima
    She confessed to you, didn't she?
[09:48] Yu
    C-Confessed? Is that what that was?
[09:51] Makishima
    You can't be serious.
[09:52] Makishima
    She's a grade A full-course meal.
[09:56] Makishima
    And she even brought you homemade cookies.
[10:00] Yu
    Come on, don't talk about your
    childhood friend like that.
[10:05] Yu
    Besides, Enomoto-san isn't
    the one who couldn't forget her first crush.
[10:10] Makishima
    To think she finally met
    her Prince Charming...
[10:13] Makishima
    Only for it to be this doofus.
[10:15] Yu
    Don't push it.
[10:18] Makishima
    But apparently, Rin-chan likes
    that you're a doofus.
[10:22] Makishima
    My childhood friend has
    the worst taste in men.
[10:25] Yu
    Shut up. Make up your mind.
[10:28] Yu
    Do you wanna diss me or Enomoto-san?
[10:31] Yu
    Makishima, don't stick your nose in this.
[10:35] Yu
    I'm having a hard enough time dealing
    with Himari acting weird.
[10:39] Makishima
    Acting weird how?
[10:41] Yu
    What?
[10:43] Makishima
    Just answer the question.
[10:46] Yu
    She's like, closer than usual?
[10:49] Yu
    I guess she's always been all over me.
[10:51] Yu
    But it's like she's trying too hard.
[10:56] Makishima
    Interesting.
[10:57] Makishima
    Let me see what she's up to.
[10:59] Rion
    Wow...
[11:01] Rion
    They look so real.
[11:03] Yu
    Well they are real.
[11:05] Rion
    Yu-kun, don't be mean.
[11:07] Yu
    Sorry.
[11:09] Himari
    Looks like you two lovebirds
    are getting along just fine.
[11:13] Yu
    Who are you calling lovebirds?
[11:17] Yu
    I was thinking of using these as inspiration
     for my next accessory and our next shoot.
[11:25] Yu
    Can you raise your right arm?
[11:27] Yu
    Like there's some sun shining down on you.
[11:30] Rion
    Like this?
[11:37] Himari
    Poke, poke.
[11:38] Yu
    What, Himari?
[11:39] Himari
    Let's do some raunchy shots now!
[11:41] Yu
    Definitely not. Can you be quiet?
[11:43] Himari
    I know you really wanna take some.
[11:45] Himari
    You wanna add them
    to your erotica collection.
[11:48] Yu
    No, I don't! Wanna get kicked out?
[11:51] Himari
    So? What do you think?
[11:52] Yu
    Nothing's really fitting.
[11:55] Yu
    They all feel too similar to Himari.
[11:57] Yu
    This must be that "garden frozen in
    time" Saku-nee-san was talking about...
[12:01] Yu
    But what would be true to Enomoto-san?
[12:04] Yu
    What's the difference
    between her and Himari?
[12:09] Yu
    Enomoto-san, let's shoot
    the queen of the night.
[12:13] Rion
    This?
[12:14] Yu
    No, not that.
[12:16] Yu
    I wanna shoot you like
    the queen of the night!
[12:21] Yu
    Actually, never mind...
[12:23] Yu
    Sorry, forget I said that.
[12:24] Yu
    I'll take a few days to mull it over.
[12:27] Himari
    All this wishy-washy talk
    is getting annoying.
[12:30] Himari
    Yu, just keep taking pictures.
[12:32] Yu
    O-Okay.
[12:51] Yu
    Her eyes widened
    as if to cling on to some hope.
[12:56] Yu
    There's anticipation, like her
    long-held dream is about to come true.
[13:00] Yu
    But also fear of it slipping away.
[13:02] Yu
    Wow, Enomoto-san!
[13:04] Yu
    That was a great shot!
[13:05] Yu
    Is something wrong?
[13:07] Rion
    W-Well, you and Hii-chan—
[13:10] Himari
    I was just kidding!
[13:12] Himari
    You're so gullible!
[13:14] Rion
    Hii-chan!
[13:16] Himari
    Stop! That's taking it too far!
[13:18] Rion
    I hate you!
[13:18] Himari
    Look, we ended up
    with a good shot, so who cares?
[13:20] Rion
    You'll pay for this!
[13:25] Rion
    Yu-kun, how was the photo?
[13:26] Yu
    It's perfect. You look gorgeous!
[13:29] Yu
    Can you do the same for the shoot?
[13:30] Rion
    Sure!
[13:39] Yu
    Hey, what did you say to her back there?
[13:41] Himari
    Hmm? It's a secret.
[13:44] Yu
    It couldn't have been anything good.
[13:47] Himari
    Man, Enocchi's so cute.
[13:49] Yu
    Honestly, she's brilliant.
[13:51] Yu
    I could edit this shot
    and use it for promotions.
[13:55] Himari
    So you're going with red tulips?
[13:58] Yu
    Yup. It represents "confessions of love."
[14:01] Yu
    It goes with the theme of romance, too.
[14:04] Yu
    Now I just need to get
    flowers for the shoot.
[14:05] Yu
    And make the accessories.
[14:08] Himari
    Hey, Yu?
[14:11] Himari
    Make me one, too!
[14:13] Himari
    A romantic accessory.
[14:14] Yu
    For you?
[14:16] Himari
    For when I fall in love one day.
[14:20] Himari
    Please?
[14:23] Yu
    For a second, I wanted that shot of Himari.
[14:27] Yu
    But I could never admit that...
[14:29] Yu
    Or that I wanted her for myself.
[14:32] Yu
    That's not how you feel about
    a best friend. It's something else.
[14:36] Yu
    This choker represents our
    relationship from two years ago.
[14:40] Yu
    Back when I swore
    to keep this friend for life.
[14:44] Yu
    It's all preserved in there.
[14:46] Yu
    That's the most important thing in my life.
[14:49] Yu
    It's a lifelong promise.
[14:53] Yu
    I can't do that.
[14:54] Yu
    You're my best friend.
[14:59] Himari
    I figured!
[15:04] Himari
    I just got dumped.
[15:07] Himari
    I knew it in my head.
[15:10] Himari
    Of course I did. I'm your best friend.
[15:13] Himari
    I was just joking.
[15:15] Himari
    Why couldn't you joke back like usual?
[15:17] Himari
    "You'd look terrible in it,"
[15:19] Himari
    like the friends we are.
[15:22] Himari
    You've never crossed that line.
[15:26] Himari
    Even though you've been more than
    a friend to me for a long time.
[15:30] Himari
    I saw Yu's look of love.
[15:35] Himari
    I wish it were directed at me.
[15:37] Himari
    Those fiery eyes of passion.
[15:41] Himari
    I wish they were for me.
[15:44] Himari
    But the friendship we built gets in the way.
[15:48] Himari
    I needed to throw that away if I wanted you.
[15:51] Himari
    But I kept using it to run from my feelings.
[15:55] Himari
    And now I've lost.
[15:57] Himari
    So if anything, I have to play that role.
[15:59] Himari
    That way, I won't lose anything else.
[16:02] Himari
    To continue being Yu's friend,
[16:03] Himari
    I have to stuff it down, just a little bit.
[16:11] Himari
    Ehem, if I could have everyone's attention!
[16:12] Himari
    We're kicking off the new
    accessories reveal party!
[16:15] Himari
    Cheers!
[16:16] All
    Cheers!
[16:19] Makishima
    Natsu, isn't this place expensive?
[16:21] Himari
    Makishima-kun, you didn't have to
    come if you didn't want to.
[16:25] Himari
    I only invited you because Yu insisted.
[16:28] Makishima
    It's not fair to bring Yu into this!
[16:31] Makishima
    That's why I don't like you.
[16:33] Yu
    Can you two be civil? We're at dinner.
[16:36] Himari
    Don't eat if you don't want to!
[16:37] Rion
    I've only been here for birthdays.
[16:38] Makishima
    That's not what I meant!
[16:42] Makishima
    So? What's this reveal about?
[16:44] Yu
    Oh, right.
[16:54] Yu
    I made a hair pin
    with a tulip in full bloom.
[16:59] Makishima
    Wow, this is incredible.
[17:01] Makishima
    Don't you think, Rin-chan?
[17:04] Rion
    It's beautiful!
[17:11] Himari
    Totally!
[17:11] Yu
    Hey! Watch out!
[17:13] Himari
    My bad, I'm getting too excited!
[17:16] Himari
    Seriously, it's Yu's best piece yet!
[17:20] Himari
    I'm sure it'll hit record sales, too!
[17:22] Yu
    Th-Thanks...
[17:24] Himari
    I've thought of a good tagline, too.
[17:27] Himari
    "Red flower of fate that
    brings soulmates together."
[17:29] Himari
    It's perfect for you two!
[17:31] Yu
    Himari, that's not what this is abou—
[17:34] Makishima
    Hey, Natsu!
[17:35] Makishima
    You should put it in Rin-chan's hair!
[17:38] Yu
    What?
[17:42] Rion
    I wouldn't mind that.
[17:45] Himari/Makishima
    Do it! Do it!
[17:52] Yu
    Why am I... feeling so nervous?
[18:12] Yu
    How's that?
[18:14] Rion
    Th-Thanks.
[18:19] Himari
    It's starting to get hot in here!
[18:23] Makishima
    Maybe that was better to do in private.
[18:26] Yu
    Stop joking around!
[18:28] Makishima
    By the way, Natsu.
[18:30] Makishima
    What do you plan to do now?
[18:33] Yu
    Do now?
[18:34] Makishima
    Let me be clear.
[18:35] Makishima
    Make Rin-chan your main model!
[18:39] Makishima
    Judging from the quality
    of this shoot and product,
[18:43] Makishima
    I can tell you two are a great match.
[18:46] Makishima
    I don't think it's a bad idea.
[18:48] Yu
    Sure, Enomoto-san's pretty,
[18:50] Yu
    and it'd be a big help, but...
[18:52] Rion
    I'd be happy to do it!
[18:55] Yu
    For real?
[18:57] Yu
    Then there's no reason for me to declin—
[19:00] Himari
    You can't do that!
[19:05] Himari
    I-I mean, that's a great
    idea, Makishima-kun!
[19:09] Himari
    But I dunno if it'll be good for Enocchi.
[19:12] Himari
    People post mean stuff about models online.
[19:16] Makishima
    You know that Rin-chan isn't the type
    to get upset over stuff like that.
[19:20] Makishima
    I'd say it's you she's threatening.
[19:24] Himari
    What's that supposed to mean?
[19:25] Makishima
    Take a guess.
[19:27] Yu
    C-Can you two calm down?
[19:29] Himari
    Shut up, Yu!
[19:29] Makishima
    Shut up, Natsu!
[19:35] Himari
    It takes a lot of work, too!
[19:36] Himari
    Like the school bazaar and writing reports.
[19:39] Himari
    It's like a job!
[19:41] Makishima
    My suggestion is to hire her as a model.
[19:44] Makishima
    I'm not telling her
    to join the Gardening Club.
[19:47] Makishima
    Himari-chan.
[19:48] Makishima
    What are you so worried for?
[19:51] Himari
    I-I'm not worried.
[19:53] Himari
    I just want the best for Enocchi.
[19:55] Himari
    Right, Yu?
[20:00] Yu
    Umm...
[20:02] Yu
    Still, we were the ones
    who asked her in the first place...
[20:07] Yu
    I don't think it's a bad idea.
[20:09] Himari
    Y-Yu, are you serious?
[20:12] Yu
    I dunno about serious.
[20:14] Yu
    You were the one who said
    I need new inspiration. Remember?
[20:18] Himari
    S-Sure, but...
[20:21] Yu
    You know, you've been acting strange lately.
[20:23] Yu
    You're hyper-focused on romance.
[20:26] Yu
    But you said yourself
    that you don't get that stuff.
[20:28] Yu
    No need for you to force it.
[20:33] Yu
    Besides...
[20:34] (Flashback) Himari
    Why not do that with me?
[20:36] Yu
    When you do stuff like that,
    it's kind of a drag.
[20:42] Yu
    I can only take so much
    before falling for you.
[20:46] Yu
    It's easier with Enomoto-san
    there to stop Himari.
[20:51] Yu
    I feel bad, Himari,
    but I can't take your side on this.
[20:58] Himari
    Cool down, cool down, cool down...
[21:02] Himari
    It's fine, Himari. You got this.
[21:04] Yu
    H-Himari? What's wrong?
[21:06] Himari
    Nothing, I'm just getting my drink.
[21:09] Yu
    You gave me your last one at school.
[21:16] Himari
    Sorry! I can't seem to cool down!
[21:39] Himari
    Let's break things off.
[21:41] Himari
    Split up.
[21:43] Yu
    Split up?
[21:48] Himari
    Yu, I never... ever...
[21:54] Himari
    want to talk to you again!

    "Thank you for joining our agency.
[03:18] Yu
    In preparation for your transfer
    to Tokyo by the end of May,

    Seriously?
[03:51] Rion
    I'm sorry, Yu-kun.

    I can see you hiding!
[04:28] Yu
    Hey!
[04:28] Himari
    Bam! Gotcha!
[04:30] Yu
    See, I knew you'd show up!
[04:34] Yu
    What an idiot.
[04:37] Yu
    Himari! Just hear me out.
[04:39] Himari
    Sh-Shut up!
[04:40] Himari
    I have nothing to talk to you about!
[04:42] Yu
    Liar! You've basically
    been begging for attention!
[04:45] Himari
    No, I haven't!
[04:48] Yu
    Himari!
[04:50] Rion
    Yu-kun!
[04:51] Yu
    Wait up! Himari!
[04:52] Himari
    I said leave me alone!
[04:59] Yu
    What are you so upset about?
[05:01] Yu
    You're that mad about Enomoto-san modeling?
[05:04] Himari
    It's not about Enocchi!
[05:06] Himari
    You're the one who's pissing me off!
[05:08] Yu
    What? You can't be serious!
SIGN    Science Room
[05:11] Yu
    How's it fair that I get juice poured on me?
[05:14] Yu
    Or that the entire class thinks I'm a dick?
[05:16] Yu
    Or that I get slapped out of nowhere?
[05:18] Yu
    Now you're going to Tokyo?
[05:20] Yu
    You could've at least talked to me about it.
[05:24] Yu
    Shows how little I mattered to you.
[05:26] Yu
    Was I just some toy for you to tease
    and play with all this time?
[05:31] Yu
    Don't just stand there! Say something!
[05:34] Himari
    Stop!
[05:35] Yu
    Calm down!
[05:36] Himari
    I am calm!
[05:38] Himari
    Just let me go!
[05:40] Yu
    Listen to what I'm saying!
[05:47] Yu
    Sorry!
[05:49] Himari
    Move!
[05:52] Himari
    No way... It can't be...
[05:58] Yu
    Whatever.
[06:00] Yu
    I was just someone you could boss around.
[06:04] Yu
    Someone that made you accessories. Right?
[06:12] Himari
    I could say the same about you.
[06:15] Himari
    You only think of me as a convenient helper.
[06:20] Yu
    What? I don't think—
[06:22] Himari
    You don't?
[06:23] Himari
    Then why would you make
    Enocchi your main model?
[06:27] Himari
    Why would you give someone else
    the right to wear your accessories first?
[06:32] Himari
    You promised that role would be mine.
[06:37] Himari
    You like Enocchi, don't you?
[06:39] Himari
    That's why you're making
    her your number one.
[06:42] Himari
    I get it. I know what love is.
[06:47] Himari
    I found out what it means.
[06:49] Himari
    I want to be happy for you two.
[06:53] Himari
    But... But...
[06:57] Himari
    There's no way I can be
    happy as your second choice!
[07:02] Himari
    I'm going where there's
    people who actually need me.
[07:14] Makishima
    What are you doing out here?
[07:18] Yu
    Can you leave me alone?
[07:20] Makishima
    I'm afraid not, buddy!
[07:22] Makishima
    Rin-chan asked me to come check on you.
[07:25] Yu
    Why did you ask me to make
    Enomoto-san the main model?
[07:29] Makishima
    'Cause that seemed like the only
    way she would stand a chance.
[07:33] Yu
    I can see why you'd root for her,
    but that has nothing to do with modeling.
[07:38] Makishima
    You really believe that?
[07:43] Makishima
    The tricky thing about romance isn't
    getting together, it's staying together.
[07:47] Makishima
    What's the point if it'll fall apart?
[07:49] Yu
    That's especially
    convincing coming from you.
[07:53] Makishima
    What a shame if you and Rin-chan
    begin dating, only for you to
[07:55] Makishima
    parade around with Himari-chan
    and make her the third wheel.
[08:00] Yu
    But Himari and I are best friends...
[08:05] Makishima
    Then what's with all the agony?
[08:10] Makishima
    "Like" and "love" aren't all that different.
[08:13] Makishima
    Kind of like your new
    feelings towards Himari-chan.
[08:19] Makishima
    Otherwise, you'd have no reason
    to avoid dating Rin-chan.
[08:23] Makishima
    What's tripping you up is your guilt
    from being attracted to Himari-chan.
[08:28] Makishima
    It's time you put aside "romance"
    or "friendship" or any of that.
[08:33] Makishima
    What actually matters is that you
    decide who's most important to you.
[08:38] Makishima
    I'll admit, the whole
    modeling thing with Rin-chan
[08:41] Makishima
    was meant to tear you and Himari-chan apart.
[08:45] Makishima
    But...
[08:46] Makishima
    Himari-chan's decision to go
    to Tokyo shows that
[08:49] Makishima
    she could only move on from
    you by leaving everything behind.
[08:54] Makishima
    Who would've known she
    had such strong feelings?
[09:00] Makishima
    If Himari-chan actually leaves this way,
    Rin-chan would blame herself.
[09:05] Makishima
    I don't want my childhood friend
    to go through that.
[09:08] Makishima
    I'm not typically one to be so loyal.
[09:14] Yu
    You're actually a pretty nice person.
[09:17] Makishima
    What?
[09:19] Makishima
    N-No, I'm not!
[09:21] Makishima
    Stop joking around.
[09:26] Makishima
    You could forget Himari-chan and
    just get with Rin-chan, you know.
[09:31] Makishima
    Whatever, do what you want.
[09:33] Makishima
    Let me remind you that Rin-chan would
    make the best girlfriend you could find.
[09:39] Yu
    See, you're too nice.
[09:43] Yu
    You knew that if you put it like that,
    I'd stop Himari from leaving.
[10:00] Yu
    Are you seriously going to Tokyo?
[10:02] Himari
    Yup.
[10:04] Yu
    Why?
[10:05] Himari
    So I can see my own worth.
[10:07] Yu
    See your worth...
[10:09] Yu
    Still as philosophical as ever, I see.
[10:13] Himari
    I doubt you'd understand.
[10:16] Yu
    Of course I do.
[10:18] Yu
    I've made accessories alone all these years.
[10:22] Yu
    No one understood me. Or even cared.
[10:27] Yu
    I wasn't needed by anyone.
[10:30] Yu
    But thanks to Himari,
    my accessory-making career survived.
[10:33] Yu
    And they spread to others in the world.
[10:35] Yu
    So I promised to keep
    making them for Himari.
[10:40] Yu
    If I turned my back on that promise,
    it's only natural she leaves.
[10:44] Yu
    Can we scratch going to Tokyo?
[10:47] Himari
    Nope.
[10:48] Yu
    I'll bow down and apologize
    about the modeling thing.
[10:54] Yu
    I know how stubborn Himari is.
[10:56] Yu
    She'll probably go to Tokyo
    and become popular.
[11:00] Yu
    Whether I'm with her or not.
[11:05] Yu
    I guess it can't be helped.
[11:07] Yu
    It can't be helped.
[11:09] Yu
    Life doesn't always go your way.
[11:12] Yu
    And when it doesn't...
[11:14] Yu
    It's up to me to make my dream come true.
[11:19] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[11:20] Himari
    Yu's such an idiot!
[11:22] Himari
    Like I'd ever go to Tokyo.
[11:24] Himari
    I'm not so desperate that I need to
[11:27] Himari
    satisfy my needs through
    a bunch of strangers!
[11:31] Himari
    Well, my fake crying must have worked.
[11:36] Himari
    Yup, it was totally fake crying.
[11:38] Himari
    Why would I cry for real?
[11:40] Himari
    Yu's accessory broke, that's all.
[11:54] Himari
    Stop moping around!
[11:55] Himari
    You can get him to make you a new one!
[12:00] Himari
    I'll have him going, "Please, Himari-sama!"
[12:02] Himari
    And make him do whatever I want!
[12:05] Himari
    First, a monthly event called
    "Thank you Himari-sama Day."
[12:09] Himari
    Second, he'll make me flower accessories!
[12:12] Himari
    And third, a kissing practice system.
[12:15] Himari
    Next time I ask for a practice kiss,
[12:17] Himari
    he can't refuse, no matter what!
[12:19] Himari
    I feel like I'm getting
    off-topic, but oh well!
[12:22] Himari
    Tomorrow, Yu will bow down
    and apologize to me.
[12:34] Himari
    Um?
[12:38] Himari
    Hello?
[12:41] Himari
    Why isn't he initiating?
[12:42] Himari
    Does he need time to cry
    his eyes out from losing me?
[12:47] Himari
    Fine. Since you're cute,
[12:49] Himari
    I forgive you!
[12:52] Yu
    Hello, Sensei?
[12:56] Himari
    If I were to guess...
[12:58] Himari
    Yu will come crying to me over the weekend!
[13:01] Himari
    I know it!
[13:07] Himari
    Okay, I get it.
[13:09] Himari
    He must've been really upset
    about the Tokyo thing.
[13:13] Himari
    Fine! Forgiven!
[13:15] Himari
    U-Um...
[13:17] Himari
    Maybe I'll peek
    at his socials, just in case.
[13:20] Himari
    Huh?
[13:22] Himari
    That's Yu's hand.
[13:28] Himari
    It's like I actually
    don't belong here anymore.
[13:32] Himari
    The new product launched already, too.
[13:35] Himari
    What if I really went to Tokyo?
[13:38] (Flashback) Yu
    When you do stuff like that,
    it's kind of a drag.
[13:45] Himari
    Wake up, Himari!
[13:46] Himari
    You've already been dumped, remember?
[13:48] Himari
    There's no way he'd ask you to stay!
[13:55] Hibari
    Hey, Himari. Home already?
[13:58] Himari
    Yup! Gotta study for exams!
[14:01] Hibari
    Wow, you're working hard.
[14:04] Hibari
    There's some curry on the
    stove if you want some.
[14:06] Himari
    Okay!
[14:09] Hibari
    Himari?
[14:10] Himari
    Hmm?
[14:11] Hibari
    I see you haven't spoken
    to Yu-kun in over a week.
[14:16] Hibari
    Wanna fill me in?
[14:20] Hibari
    You're wondering how I know.
[14:22] Hibari
    It's very simple.
[14:24] Hibari
    I can sense your "Yu-kun aura"
    is rapidly declining.
[14:29] Hibari
    So?
[14:30] Hibari
    What happened?
[14:33] Hibari
    You unbelievable dimwit!
[14:36] Hibari
    You got dumped so you
    threatened to move to Tokyo?
[14:37] Hibari
    And now you're planning
    on ordering him around?
[14:40] Hibari
    That's called emotional blackmail!
[14:42] Hibari
    You should be ashamed to be
    a member of the Inuzuka family!
[14:44] Himari
    I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
    I'm sorry!
[14:47] Hibari
    Himari, we have a deal, remember?
[14:50] Hibari
    During that bazaar in middle school,
    you begged me for a lifetime favor.
[14:55] Hibari
    So to sell out 200 accessories,
    I asked Enomoto to advertise them...
[15:00] Hibari
    You made me beg Enomoto for help!
[15:04] Hibari
    She forced me to bow down to her,
    lick her heels, and sing in front of her!
[15:09] Hibari
    I haven't even endured that
    kind of humiliation at my job!
[15:13] Himari
    I-I get that you despise
    Enocchi's big sister to death.
[15:18] Hibari
    But I decided to help! Why?
[15:20] Hibari
    Because his work spoke to me!
[15:23] Hibari
    You remember our deal, right?
[15:26] Himari
    To never quit supporting Yu's
    dream to open his own store.
[15:30] Hibari
    Right you are!
[15:32] Hibari
    Don't tell me that all this time...
[15:34] Hibari
    You were only in it for fun and were
    planning to abandon it when you got bored?
[15:38] Himari
    No, I swear! It's not like that!
[15:41] Hibari
    Then what's this disaster about?
[15:43] Himari
    'C-Cause... I ended up falling for Yu!
[15:49] Himari
    Onii-chan, you don't get it at all!
[15:51] Himari
    What about my feelings?
[15:53] Himari
    I'm supposed to sacrifice myself?
[15:57] Hibari
    That's right.
[15:59] Hibari
    What's most important to you?
[16:02] Hibari
    Is it romance? Or is it
    having Yu-kun for yourself?
[16:08] Himari
    Aren't they the same?
[16:10] Hibari
    Everything in life is finite.
[16:12] Hibari
    You could have all the money in the world,
[16:14] Hibari
    but that won't get you everything you want.
[16:20] Hibari
    As a civil servant,
    I worked on building highways.
[16:23] Hibari
    That meant demolishing people's
    homes and taking their land.
[16:28] Hibari
    I've been met with more
    criticism than gratitude.
[16:31] Hibari
    But...
[16:32] Hibari
    It was necessary for this town
    to survive the next 100 years.
[16:36] Hibari
    I'm doing work that will serve a purpose,
    even after I die one day.
[16:43] Hibari
    That's the kind of life I want for you, too.
[16:46] Hibari
    Throw out the small stuff.
[16:48] Hibari
    Work to grasp that one thing
    that's important to you.
[16:50] Hibari
    If you do that, you've won in life.
[16:56] Himari
    I couldn't fully understand
    Onii-chan's point.
[17:01] Himari
    But I can't throw it all away now.
[17:05] Himari
    Not until I understand it but can't accept it.
[17:11] Himari
    Yu, can we talk?
[17:14] Himari
    It's important.
[17:15] Yu
    I have something to tell you, too.
[17:17] Yu
    Meet me in the science room.
[17:20] Himari
    It's not like a super big deal.
[17:23] Himari
    About that agency, it's well... um...
[17:28] Himari
    Ugh! I can't figure out what I wanna say!
[17:31] Himari
    A-Actually, could you go first?
[17:34] Himari
    I'll talk after you!
[17:35] Yu
    Oh, okay.
[17:37] Yu
    There's something I wanted to give you.
SIGN    Notice of Withdrawal
     From School
[17:46] Himari
    W-Withdrawal?!
[17:47] Yu
    Oh shit! Wrong one!
[17:49] Yu
    Sorry, that's not it! I messed up!
[17:51] Himari
    Hang on! Forget the mistake!
[17:54] Himari
    What's that notice for?
[17:57] Yu
    I'm thinking of quitting school.
[18:01] Yu
    I'll go to Tokyo. I'm coming with you.
[18:04] Himari
    Huh? W-With me?
[18:07] Yu
    Makishima told me to decide
    what's most important to me.
[18:13] Yu
    And I decided it's you.
[18:16] Yu
    I'd need to figure out how
    to make a living but...
[18:21] Himari
    Y-You mean... Wait.
[18:24] Himari
    You make it sound easy,
    but if you start working,
[18:28] Himari
    you won't have as much time
    to make accessories.
[18:31] Yu
    No flower accessory
    is good enough without you!
[18:37] Yu
    But Himari, am I worth being
    with if I can't make accessories?
[18:43] Himari
    Sure you are.
[18:44] Himari
    You're plenty!
[18:46] Himari
    I love watching videos together.
[18:50] Himari
    I love fighting over onion rings
    on the way home from school.
[18:54] Himari
    I love going out together
    on the train somewhere.
[18:57] Himari
    I love every minute I get to laugh with you!
[19:03] Yu
    Hey! What's that for?
[19:05] Himari
    Don't worry. I'm not going.
[19:07] Yu
    What? But you said you
    want to feel needed by fans!
[19:15] Yu
    Y-You okay?
[19:17] Himari
    I did not say that!
[19:18] Himari
    And you're way too close!
[19:20] Himari
    Having your face so close makes me
    want to go in for a kiss!
[19:24] Himari
    But I can't have my first
    kiss be all sticky with juice!
[19:29] Himari
    You and I can go back to normal.
[19:31] Himari
    And I don't mind Enocchi modeling.
[19:33] Himari
    But could you keep me
     as the... main model?
[19:38] Yu
    Sure.
[19:39] Himari
    So what did you wanna give me?
[19:43] Himari
    Wow...
[19:44] Himari
    Is this Anemone flaccida? It's so small.
[19:48] Yu
    I made it with a preserved Anemone flaccida.
[19:51] Yu
    A mini version.
[19:53] Yu
    A totally unique best
    friend ring just for you.
[19:58] Yu
    I realized that you're my best friend.
[20:02] Yu
    I might make you mad again...
[20:05] Yu
    But it's not like other people
    are more important than you.
[20:09] Yu
    I promise, that's the truth.
[20:13] Himari
    Yu, turn around for a sec.
[20:16] Yu
    Why?
[20:16] Himari
    Just do it!
[20:18] Himari
    Woot!
[20:19] Yu
    Hey! What are you doing?
[20:22] Himari
    Put it on for me?
[20:24] Yu
    Do it yourself.
[20:26] Himari
    No! I want you to do it!
[20:31] Himari
    Boo! Loser!
[20:32] Yu
    I told you, it's a best friend ring.
[20:35] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[20:36] Himari
    Hey, what's this tiny thing?
[20:38] Yu
    It's an... Anemone flaccida seed.
[20:41] Himari
    Cool!
[20:42] Yu
    H-Hey.
[20:44] Himari
    You should just pick me.
[20:47] Himari
    If we're still alone at thirty, pick me.
[20:53] Yu
    Maybe, if I'm single then.
[20:58] Himari
    In the end, things are still the same.
[21:01] Himari
    But oh well.
[21:02] Himari
    If that's what Yu wants,
    I can stay best friends.
[21:06] Himari
    I'll keep my feelings hidden in this ring.
[21:10] Girl A
    Hey, Himari-san!
[21:12] Himari
    What's up?
[21:13] Girl B
    Is it true that this is that
    Natsume-kun you always hang out with?
SIGN    How did it go?
[21:23] Yu
    Oh yeah. I haven't thanked her.
[21:27] Yu
    Thanks to you, it turned
    out great. Thank you.
[21:32] Yumi
    Glad I could help.
[21:35] Yumi
    It took me some time to find it, though.
[21:39] Yumi
    Pretty suave of you to sneak
    in a purple tulip seed.
[21:42] Yumi
    I bet Inuzuka-chan loved it.
[21:45] Yu
    How did she figure that out?
[21:48] Yu
    I can't tell Himari the meaning
    behind purple tulips yet.
[21:52] Yu
    I'd die if I got dumped back there.
[21:56] Yu
    Someday, I'll tell her.
[22:00] Yu
    My best friend is too cute to handle.

    Drink up!
[02:27] Yu
    Pressuring me in silence.
[02:29] Yu
    "The world's cutest girl came to find you."
[02:31] Yu
    "Stop moping around and let's get going."
[02:33] Yu
    Something like that.

    I'll admit, she is cute.

[03:02] Male Classmate
    I can explain!

    Let's go, Yu!
[03:04] (Flashback) Yu
    H-Hey, Himari!
[03:08] (Flashback) Himari
    So... I've been meaning to ask you.
[03:12] (Flashback) Himari
    You've been avoiding me lately, haven't you?
[03:17] (Flashback) Yu
    I-I dunno what you're talking about.

    F-Fine. You win!
[03:23] (Flashback) Himari
    What is it? Did I do something?
[03:25] (Flashback) Yu
    You haven't done anything!

    You know, um...
[03:40] (Flashback) Himari
    You're too nice, Yu.
[03:43] (Flashback) Himari
    Don't pay attention to those guys.
[03:44] (Flashback) Himari
    You don't even know them.
[03:47] (Flashback) Yu
    You knew the other guys were bad-mouthing me?
[03:51] (Flashback) Himari
    They bug me about it, too.
[03:54] (Flashback) Himari
    Did they tell you to
    stop hanging out with me?
[03:56] (Flashback) Yu
    They say you're out of my league.
[04:00] (Flashback) Himari
    And why would you care what they think?
[04:03] (Flashback) Yu
    Well I can't just ignore it.
[04:06] (Flashback) Yu
    Besides, you have your friends...

    in the popular crowd.

[04:27] (Flashback) Yu
    Jeez...
[04:28] (Flashback) Himari
    Dating's no joke.
[04:31] (Flashback) Himari
    I'm tired of getting dragged
    into it, you know?
[04:35] (Flashback) Himari
    That was a good lunch.
[04:37] (Flashback) Himari
    Anyways, my point is...
[04:40] (Flashback) Himari
    You may think the popular crowd's
[04:42] (Flashback) Himari
    friendship and romance
    is this grand, beautiful thing.
[04:47] (Flashback) Himari
    But "beautiful" doesn't always mean "pure."
[04:51] (Flashback) Himari
    I'd rather have things
    be pure, not beautiful.
[04:56] (Flashback) Himari
    That's why I like how genuine
    your eyes get when you work.
[05:01] (Flashback) Himari
    Your passion isn't beneath me at all.
[05:06] (Flashback) Himari
    So promise me, you'll be
    my best friend forever.
[05:08] (Flashback) Himari
    And that you'll never fall for me.
[05:14] (Flashback) Yu
    Well, duh.
[05:15] (Flashback) Yu
    I'm your...
[05:17] (Flashback) Yu
    b-best friend, after all.
[05:24] (Flashback) Himari
    Gotcha.
[05:28] Yu
    I'm your... b-best friend, after all.
[05:30] Yu
    Himari!
[05:31] (Flashback) Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[05:33] (Flashback) Yu
    You suck! Delete that!
[05:36] (Flashback) Himari
    I don't think so!
[05:37] (Flashback) Yu
    Get back here!
[05:44] (Flashback) Himari
    How about this?
[05:46] (Flashback) Himari
    From now on, when guys come on to me,
[05:48] (Flashback) Himari
    I'll tell them that we're dating.
[05:50] (Flashback) Yu
    Don't drag me into
    the popular crowd's feuds.
[05:53] (Flashback) Yu
    I don't need any more crap from those guys.
[05:55] (Flashback) Yu
    Besides, what if they believe you?
[05:59] (Flashback) Himari
    Then wanna actually go out?
[06:02] (Flashback) Yu
    No way.
[06:04] (Flashback) Yu
    The last thing I'd want
    is to go out with you.
[06:06] (Flashback) Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[06:07] (Flashback) Himari
    See, you know me too well.
[06:10] (Flashback) Yu
    Cool, thanks.
[06:12] (Flashback) Himari
    We should go back like this.
[06:15] (Flashback) Himari
    Come on, let's go!
[06:16] (Flashback) Yu
    W-Wait!
[06:17] Yu
    Two years later, spring of junior year...
[06:18] (Flashback) Yu
    Himari, your lunch!
[06:20] (Flashback) Himari
    Whoops, my bad!
[06:20] Yu
    I ended up falling for Himari.
[06:29] Yu
    Apparently, Himari's not*
    going to Tokyo anymore.
[06:32] Yu
    And I totally missed my chance
    to tell her how I feel.
[06:37] Yu
    I just need to play it cool.
[06:39] Himari
    Hey, Yu! Morning!
[06:46] Yu
    'Sup, Himari? Morning.
[06:49] Himari
    Ew, what's with the creepy smile?
[06:51] Himari
    You have a stomach ache or something?
[06:53] Yu
    Don't be a hater.
[06:54] Yu
    That was a hunky smile.
[06:57] Himari
    I dunno about hunky.
[06:58] Himari
    Kinda looked like you had an upset stomach.
[07:01] Yu
    Whatever.
[07:06] Yu
    Where's your ring?
[07:09] Himari
    Oh, that? Right here.
[07:11] Himari
    I figured wearing a ring
    to school might be a bit much.
[07:15] Yu
    Yeah, true.
[07:16] Yu
    Hey, want me to replace that belt?
[07:19] Himari
    Nope, I like this one.
[07:22] Himari
    It's the first piece you ever gave me.
[07:24] Yu
    C-Cool.
[07:28] Yu
    I was this close to saying,
[07:29] Yu
    "You're so cute I could die, and I love you."
[07:32] Yu
    Good thing her cheesy
    line snapped me out of it.
[07:37] Yu
    Either way, thank goodness...
[07:38] Yu
    I figured she slept on it and decided
    she didn't want the ring anymore.
[07:42] Himari
    Don't tell me you were afraid I slept on it
[07:44] Himari
    and decided I didn't want the ring anymore?
[07:46] Yu
    Yikes!
[07:48] Himari
    Yu, you just can't get enough of me!
[07:50] Himari
    If you like me so much,
    wanna actually go out?
[07:53] Yu
    Screw you! Don't underestimate me.
[07:56] Yu
    I was prepared to quit school, you know.
[07:58] Yu
    Hey, Himari.
[08:02] Yu
    I realized that you're the only one for me.
[08:06] Yu
    If you're really up for it,
    would you go out with me?
[08:09] Yu
    Perfect, now for the finisher...
[08:12] Yu
    Just kidding!
[08:14] Yu
    I got you, didn't I?
[08:19] Himari
    Whatever.
[08:21] Yu
    I'm sorry, I got too cocky.
[08:24] Himari
    You think you can trick me
    with a phony spiel like that?
[08:30] Himari
    Oh yeah.
[08:31] Himari
    Go on, I'll catch up with you.
[08:46] Himari
    That was a close call!
[08:48] Himari
    Jeez, Yu. He almost got me.
[08:51] Himari
    For a split second,
    I thought he was for real.
[08:53] Himari
    I missed the chance to tell him
    that people know he's the creator of You.
[08:56] Himari
    Or about Enocchi...
SIGN    Hii-chan, I'm never speaking to you again.
[09:01] Teacher
    There you are.
[09:03] Teacher
    Natsume, stop by the teacher's office.
[09:07] Himari
    You turned in your midterm
    exams completely blank?!
[09:09] Yu
    Keep your voice down!
[09:12] Yu
    Not totally blank. I think
    I answered a couple questions.
[09:16] Yu
    But I was so tired, I fell asleep.
[09:20] Himari
    What happened?
[09:22] Yu
    I was so focused on making that piece.
[09:25] Himari
    Oh... that's why?
[09:27] Yu
    They're letting me retake
    the exam this Sunday.
[09:30] Yu
    If I pass every subject,
    they'll let me off the hook.
[09:37] Himari
    We still have some time until Sunday.
[09:40] Himari
    It's okay, I'll help you study after school.
[09:42] Yu
    Thanks.
[09:45] Himari
    By the way, this may not be
    the best time but...
[09:48] Yu
    What's up?
[09:49] Himari
    People found out that you're behind You.
[09:52] Yu
    Is that bad?
[09:54] Yu
    It's not like I was
    hiding my face on social media.
[09:56] Himari
    Shouldn't you be more worried?
[09:58] Yu
    Why? I don't see any issue with it.
[10:01] Himari
    I do!
[10:02] Himari
    If people find out you
    make those cute accessories,
[10:05] Himari
    you'll have a flock of girls around you!
[10:08] Yu
    What are you talking about?
[10:10] Himari
    What if what happened
     with Enocchi happens again?
[10:14] Himari
    Girls could come up to you and ask to model,
[10:16] Himari
    and you'll go along with it like last time.
[10:19] Yu
    Could you not bring that up again?
[10:24] Yu
    Listen, Himari.
[10:27] Yu
    I'll say it again.
[10:30] Himari
    Yeah, what?
[10:31] Yu
    This ring belongs to you and you only.
[10:35] Yu
    As long as you keep this,
    you're my number one model.
[10:43] Himari
    A-Aww, you really can't get... get enough...
[10:54] Yu
    Ow!
[10:54] Yu
    Why did you smack me?!
[10:56] Yu
    I heard something pop!
[10:57] Himari
    You're being way too cheesy, that's why!
[10:59] Yu
    Doesn't give you the right to slap me!
[11:02] Himari
    I-It was your fault.
[11:07] Yu
    'S-Sup, Enomoto-san?
[11:09] Rion
    Taking a break.
[11:11] Himari
    R-Right.
[11:18] Yu
    H-How long have you been
    there? I didn't notice.
[11:21] Rion
    From when Hii-chan yelled
    about girls flocking to you.
[11:26] Rion
    Sorry to bother you.
[11:29] Himari
    Y-Yu, did something happen with Enocchi?
[11:32] Yu
    I could ask you the same.
    She's totally avoiding you.
[11:36] Yu
    Actually, a lot did happen.
[11:40] Yu
    While Himari and I were fighting.
[11:43] Yu
    But I can't say that.
[11:44] Himari
    Honestly, the leak is
    a bigger issue than the exams.
SIGN    Yu
SIGN    Himari
SIGN    Enocchi
[11:48] Himari
    It's pretty clear who started it.
[11:51] Himari
    I'll keep Yu to myself as his best friend.
[11:53] Himari
    And write my own happy ending!
[11:56] Himari
    No matter what gets in the way.
[11:58] Makishima
    You're quicker than I expected.
[12:01] Himari
    Why did you leak that stuff
    about You, after all this time?
[12:07] Makishima
    Is it not obvious?
[12:09] Makishima
    It's all to help Rin-chan beat you!
[12:13] Himari
    No remorse. What an ass!
[12:15] Himari
    Too bad, but Yu's my best friend.
[12:18] Himari
    I like Enocchi, but even if
    she cuts me off, I won't give that up.
[12:23] Makishima
    You're so desperate.
[12:25] Makishima
    Anyone could tell how you feel about him.
[12:32] Himari
    Hate to break it to you,
    but this won't go your way.
[12:36] Himari
    Yu chose me, and he's loyal—
[12:38] Makishima
    Let me be very clear.
[12:40] Makishima
    If you really wanted Natsu for yourself,
    you should've taken him to Tokyo.
[12:45] Makishima
    Natsu was prepared to leave everything
    for you and you weren't.
[12:52] Makishima
    You decided not to take him
    while you had the chance.
[12:55] Himari
    What are you talking about?
[12:57] Makishima
    You'll see soon enough.
[12:59] Makishima
    Sorry, but you're not even a threat to us.
[13:08] Yu
    So how exactly do I study for a make-up exam?
[13:12] Himari
    I dunno, but I messaged Onii-chan about it.
[13:14] Himari
    I'm sure he'll know what to do.
[13:17] Himari
    I can't believe you haven't
    visited my place in almost a year.

    Oh yeah. Grandpa's staying

[13:38] Himari
    And Mom's giddy to spend the night
    with Dad while he's back in Japan.
[13:43] Himari
    So I guess it's just us today.
[13:46] Yu
    Take that!
[13:46] Himari
    Ow!
[13:46] Yu
    I'm not falling for that one.
[13:48] Yu
    You said Hibari-san would be here.
[13:50] Yu
    I gotta say hi.
[13:52] Himari
    Onii-chan isn't here either.
[13:54] Yu
    But you said he'd help me study.
[13:56] Himari
    He sent over a big pile of
    notes and some old practice books.
[14:01] Himari
    So I'm gonna help you study
    while looking them over.
[14:04] Himari
    Onii-chan's too busy
    with work to be here himself.
[14:08] Yu
    Oh, okay.
[14:10] Yu
    So wait, we're seriously gonna be alone?

    Hello, Yu-kun!
[14:18] Hibari
    Welcome back home!
[14:23] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[14:24] Yu
    Himari!
[14:29] Hibari
    Now, let's get to work.
[14:32] Yu
    Hibari-san, what about work?
[14:36] Hibari
    No worries.
[14:37] Hibari
    I served up one of my staff
    to attend today's conference.
[14:40] Yu
    Served up?
[14:42] Hibari
    Yu-kun.
[14:42] Yu
    Y-Yes!
[14:44] Hibari
    I've always been in agreement with Himari.
[14:47] Hibari
    You shine the brightest
    when making accessories.
[14:52] Hibari
    I believe your work will make this
    town known across the globe one day.
[14:57] Yu
    W-Wow, thanks.
[14:59] Hibari
    Which is exactly why I can't
    allow anything to get in your way!
[15:02] Hibari
    Like studying for exams, for example!
[15:06] Yu
    S-Sure, but I'm a student.
    It can't be helped.
[15:09] Hibari
    There's a way to get out of that.
[15:14] Hibari
    This is your chance to master everything
    there is to know in high school.
[15:18] Hibari
    That way, you'll never have to study
    for an exam ever again.
[15:21] Hibari
    In fact, I could help you
    enter Japan's best institution!
[15:27] Yu
    H-Himari!
[15:29] Yu
    Y-You said you'd study with me!
[15:32] Himari
    There's no stopping Onii-chan
    when he gets fired up like this.
[15:35] Himari
    Good luck, Yu!
[15:38] Hibari
    Let's study with your brother-in-law.
[15:41] Yu
    Th-Thanks.
[15:43] Himari
    Yu, hop in the bath while it's hot.
[15:48] Himari
    Sorry about Onii-chan.
[15:51] Himari
    He's been real busy lately.
[15:54] Himari
    I thought he could use
    that to blow off some steam.
[15:58] Yu
    It's okay, I'm the one
    who should be thanking him.
[16:02] Yu
    You sacrificed me on purpose?
[16:04] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[16:08] Yu
    A beauty in a yukata...
[16:10] Yu
    What accessory would pair well?
[16:11] Yu
    Something around her neck?
[16:13] Himari
    Yu, you're staring.
[16:15] Yu
    Oh, sorry.
[16:16] Yu
    I was just thinking of what
    accessories would go with that yukata.
[16:20] Himari
    I didn't say you can't stare.
[16:23] Yu
    Cut it out!
[16:26] Yu
    Wow, it's like a real hot springs inn!
[16:30] Yu
    I've visited a few times, but
    I've never stayed the night or taken a bath.
[16:34] Himari
    You'll be here again tomorrow anyways.
[16:36] Himari
    Go ahead and leave your
    clothes in the hamper.
[16:38] Himari
    I'll have our helpers wash it.
[16:41] Yu
    Really? Thanks!
[16:45] Yu
    Which seat has Himari used?
[16:48] Yu
    Hold up, what am I thinking?
[16:50] Yu
    Am I stupid?
[16:51] Himari
    Heads up, Yu, I'm opening the door.
[16:56] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[16:57] Himari
    Such a virgin.
[16:58] Yu
    Shut up!
[17:00] Yu
    I've never had a girl see me naked!
[17:03] Yu
    Why did you open the door?
[17:05] Himari
    You know, you worked so hard today.
[17:08] Himari
    Want me to wash your back for you?
[17:11] Yu
    This girl is out of her mind!
[17:14] Himari
    Since I couldn't help you study,
[17:15] Himari
    maybe you could use some cheering up.
[17:18] Yu
    Th-That's weird between opposite genders.
[17:21] Himari
    Yeah, but we're best friends.
[17:23] Himari
    Or do you actually see me as more than that?
[17:28] Yu
    She's just teasing me like usual.
[17:29] Yu
    I'm not falling for it.
[17:32] Yu
    Fine. Could you, please?
[17:36] Himari
    O-Okay.
[17:38] Himari
    Then let me undress.
[17:41] Yu
    Huh?
[17:43] Himari
    Turn around so you can't see, okay?
[17:46] Yu
    But she's just washing my back.
[17:48] Yu
    There's no need to undress...
[17:49] Yu
    Wait, that's beside the point.
[17:51] Yu
    Himari-san? Don't you think
    that's a bit overboard?
[17:57] Himari
    Yu, keep your eyes closed.
[17:59] Yu
    O-Okay!
[18:00] Yu
    "Okay"?
[18:05] Yu
    It's the same arms as the science room...
[18:09] Yu
    I can't!
[18:10] Hibari
    Come on, let me wash you down.
[18:13] Yu
    No!
[18:15] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[18:15] Yu
    Himari!
[18:20] Hibari
    I didn't think it would actually
    go exactly as Himari imagined.
[18:24] Yu
    Hibari-san, that wasn't funny.
[18:27] Hibari
    You're right, I'm sorry.
[18:28] Hibari
    But goodness, are you two
    always fooling around like this?
[18:33] Yu
    Uh, well, you see...
[18:35] Yu
    I always try and stop her.
[18:38] Yu
    I mean—nothing's ever happened!
[18:41] Hibari
    I have no right judging
    how you two act as best friends.
[18:46] Hibari
    Anyways, I'm glad you two worked things out.
[18:49] Yu
    Huh?
[18:50] Hibari
    I know what happened.
[18:52] Hibari
    Why wouldn't I know?
[18:54] Yu
    That's definitely convincing.
[18:56] Hibari
    I was worried Himari
    wouldn't be able to apologize.
[19:01] Hibari
    She's been too spoiled growing up.
[19:04] Yu
    Himari apologize? For what?
[19:06] Hibari
    I thought Himari apologized yesterday.
[19:09] Hibari
    That's how you two made up, right?
[19:12] Yu
    Um, we did make up, but...
[19:16] Yu
    Himari never did anything wrong.
[19:18] Yu
    I was the one who apologized.
    It was my fault.
[19:22] Hibari
    What?
[19:26] Hibari
    She hasn't apologized.
[19:28] Yu
    Hibari-san?
[19:30] Hibari
    Do you mind sharing a bit more on that?
[19:34] Yu
    My bad, Himari. Didn't mean to out you.
[19:37] Himari
    Oh my gosh, that was crazy!
[19:40] Himari
    If Onii-chan hadn't walked by,
[19:43] Himari
    Yu and I would have been in our bath alone!
[19:50] Himari
    Romance sure does take a toll...
[19:52] Himari
    But I don't mind, I guess.
[19:54] Himari
    When Yu claps back like that,
    there's this weird tension in the air.
[19:57] Himari
    It's almost like a thrill, it's so exciting.
[20:00] Himari
    Was I a masochist all along?
[20:05] Himari
    Is that Yu?
[20:06] Himari
    Oh my gosh, he came to
    a girl's room this late at night!
[20:09] Himari
    Could this mean...?
[20:12] Himari
    If he's up for it, so am I!
[20:14] Himari
    Come in!
[20:15] Himari
    It'd make things weirder
    if I pushed him away, right?
[20:20] Hibari
    Himari, let's have a little chat.
[20:23] Hibari
    Shall we?
[20:26] Hibari
    Yu-kun, when it comes
    to studying, repetition is key.
[20:32] Hibari
    You got a pretty good
    grasp of things yesterday,
[20:35] Hibari
    so let's take mock exams as many
    times as possible until Sunday.
[20:38] Yu
    O-Okay.
[20:40] Yu
    Thank you. By the way...
[20:42] Hibari
    And another thing.
[20:44] Hibari
    Lack of sleep is your biggest enemy.
[20:48] Hibari
    Feel free to use my
    favorite relaxation items.
[20:52] Yu
    G-Great.
[20:54] Yu
    The Inuzuka Family specialty:
[20:56] Yu
    kill them with kindness.
[20:58] Hibari
    See you tonight.
[21:00] Yu
    Thank you.
[21:04] Yu
    Himari, you okay?
[21:05] Himari
    Yeah, now that Onii-chan's gone.
[21:09] Himari
    I'm better now.
[21:11] Rion
    Yu-kun.
[21:13] Rion
    Good morning.
[21:14] Yu
    H-Hey, Enomoto-san...
[21:16] Himari
    'S-Sup, Enocchi?
[21:19] Yu
    Is she some kind of modern ninja?
[21:21] Rion
    Yu-kun, did you just get
    out of a car with Hii-chan?
[21:25] Yu
    U-Um, Hibari-san was just dropping us off.
[21:28] Yu
    I stayed at Himari's place last nigh—
[21:31] Rion
    You stayed at Hii-chan's house?
[21:33] Yu
    Um, it's nothing. No big deal.
[21:37] Yu
    I was studying with
    Hibari-san the entire time.
[21:39] Rion
    Studying? For what?
[21:42] Yu
    I have to retake my exams on Sunday.
[21:44] Yu
    I can't move to the next
    grade without passing.
[21:53] Rion
    Then I'll come, too.
[21:55] Rion
    I'll stay the night, too!

[01:30] Teacher
    So you solve for this double root by...
[01:33] Yu
    No way this goes over well.
[01:36] (Flashback) Rion
    I'll stay the night, too!
[01:39] Yu
    Technically, it's Himari's place, but...
[01:41] Yu
    Spending the night with a guy?
[01:44] Yu
    Besides, there's that one issue...
[01:48] Rion
    What should I bring?
[01:49] Yu
    Are you serious about this?
[01:53] Yu
    Don't you need your mom's permission?
[01:55] Yu
    Does she even know I'll be there?
SIGN    No prob!
[02:01] Rion
    Mom said it's fine since you're a good guy.
[02:05] Yu
    Come on, Mom!
[02:08] Himari
    Sensei!
[02:09] Himari
    This flunky's flirting
    with Enocchi during class!
[02:15] Yu
    Who said it was Enomoto-san?
[02:18] Himari
    Nice try. She just texted me
    about staying the night, too.
[02:23] Yu
    Really? Is she that excited to sleep over?
[02:26] Himari
    We've got a problem.
    No studying at my place today!
[02:30] Yu
    What? Why not?
[02:31] Himari
    I told Onii-chan that Enocchi was coming,
[02:33] Himari
    and he went off about not letting
    Enomoto DNA step foot on our property.
[02:38] Yu
    Hibari-san really hates
    Enomoto-san's sister that much?
[02:42] Himari
    Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
[02:44] Yu
    Then how about a family restaurant?
[02:46] Himari
    If any teachers see us out late,
    we'll get written up.
[02:49] Yu
    You're right.
[02:52] Himari
    You know, Yu.
[02:53] Himari
    You get pretty frantic
    when it comes to Enocchi.
[02:55] Yu
    What are you talking about?
[02:56] Yu
    She's only trying to help out.
[02:59] Himari
    Hmm.
[03:00] Himari
    Really?
[03:01] Himari
    You sure you weren't hoping
    for a repeat of last night?
[03:06] Yu
    Like hell I am!
[03:09] Teacher
    Natsume!
[03:11] Teacher
    You've got the nerve to play
    around on your smartphone in class?!
[03:14] Teacher
    After we agreed to let you retake the exams?!
[03:18] Yu
    I-I'm sorry.
[03:20] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[03:24] Mao
    Hey, there's Natsume-kun!
[03:27] Mao
    Hey, so we were talking with Himari-san.
[03:28] Yu
    Huh? What?
[03:30] Azumi
    It's about this account!
[03:33] Azumi
    Hang on, do you not remember us?
[03:35] Mao
    We were in the same class last year.
[03:37] Azumi
    This!
[03:38] Azumi
    "You" is actually Natsume-kun, right?
[03:42] Yu
    Oh yeah, Himari said something about a leak.
[03:45] Yu
    Um, well, even if it were actually me—
[03:48] Mao
    Which means?
[03:49] Azumi
    It's totally true!
[03:51] Mao
    I knew Himari-san was hiding something!
[03:55] Yu
    Can I help you with something?
[03:57] Mao
    Can you make us accessories, too?
[03:59] Azumi
    We have a friend who really wants one!
[04:01] Yu
    U-Umm, well, I'm kinda busy
    studying for a retake...
[04:06] Azumi
    You're retaking the exams?
[04:08] Mao
    You seem so smart, though!
[04:11] Makishima
    Natsu!
[04:14] Makishima
    What are you doing with these commoners?
[04:16] Yu
    Hey, Makishima.
[04:18] Makishima
    Shoo! He's mine. Go on, now.
[04:21] Azumi
    Get real!
[04:23] Mao
    See ya, Natsume-kun!
[04:25] Yu
    See ya.
[04:26] Mao
    Let's go before his womanizer
    virus rubs off on us!
[04:29] Azumi
    For sure!
[04:30] Himari
    Um, what's up?
[04:33] Rion
    I just wanted to ask what I should bring
    for the sleepover tonight.
[04:37] Himari
    Oh right, that...
[04:39] Himari
    I thought she was never
    speaking to me again.
[04:41] Himari
    But she seems back to normal.
[04:44] Himari
    Maybe she forgot with
    the whole sleepover thing?
[04:48] Himari
    U-Um, actually, I've been
    meaning to tell you...
[04:50] Himari
    We can't study at my place today.
[04:57] Rion
    Oh, okay...
[05:01] Makishima
    You've sure made a name for yourself, Natsu.
[05:05] Yu
    Himari told me you're the reason
    for the leak to begin with.
[05:10] Makishima
    I sure am.
[05:12] Yu
    You could at least feel guilty about it.
[05:15] Yu
    Never mind that.
[05:16] Yu
    Could you help convince Enomoto-san for me?
[05:19] Makishima
    Convince her? Of what?
[05:24] Makishima
    So she's spending the night with
    her crush under the pretext of studying.
[05:31] Makishima
    Pretty bold of Rin-chan.
[05:36] Makishima
    I must say, I'm proud as her
    childhood friend and romance advisor.
[05:41] Yu
    We're not spending the night,
    it's a study group.
[05:44] Yu
    Himari will be there, too.
[05:47] Yu
    Wait, so you didn't tell her to do that?
[05:49] Makishima
    It's the first I've heard of it.
[05:50] Makishima
    I did tell her to be assertive
    since you're easily pressured.
[05:53] Yu
    You idiot!
[05:55] Makishima
    Is that a problem?
[05:58] Makishima
    The girl you love
    and the girl who loves you.
[06:01] Makishima
    A thrilling sleepover
    caught between the two.
[06:04] Makishima
    I've never experienced that,
    even when I had five girlfriends.
[06:11] Makishima
    Natsu, you must be the star of a rom-com.
[06:14] Yu
    Stop jabbering and help me out here.
[06:17] Makishima
    Not my problem.
[06:18] Makishima
    Do whatever you want.
[06:20] Makishima
    These are the consequences for your actions.
[06:23] Makishima
    I know you were getting handsy with
[06:25] Makishima
    Himari-chan in
    the science room the other day.
[06:29] Yu
    H-How do you know that?
[06:32] Makishima
    Don't make me tell you.
[06:33] Makishima
    You should have at least locked the doors.
[06:38] Yu
    Wh-Who was watching? Enomoto-san?
[06:40] Makishima
    Anyways...
[06:42] Makishima
    Have fun screwing this up!
[06:46] Yu
    So no help from Makishima.
[06:49] Yu
    How am I gonna convince Enomoto-san now?
[06:53] Himari
    Yu!
[06:54] Himari
    About the study group tonight.
[06:56] Himari
    We can have it at your place, right?
[06:57] Yu
    What?
[06:58] Himari
    Well we can't have it at my place.
[07:00] Himari
    And anywhere public's a no-go.
[07:03] Himari
    So it's gotta be your place!
[07:07] Yu
    No way.
[07:09] Yu
    You're one thing, but there's no way
    I can let Enomoto-san stay the night.
[07:12] Yu
    I mean—neither of you can stay!
[07:13] Himari
    Come on, you can make up
    an excuse about the sleepover.
[07:17] Himari
    I'll be there, too.
[07:18] Yu
    I dunno...
[07:20] Himari
    Enocchi's really excited for it, you know?
[07:23] Himari
    And I accidentally told her
    we'd do it at your place.
[07:27] Himari
    Please!
[07:28] Himari
    I felt so bad my place got nixed
    at the last minute.
[07:32] Himari
    So... Please?
[07:35] Yu
    Dammit... She's... too cute!
[07:39] Classmate B
    Himari-san!
[07:40] Himari
    'Sup?
[07:41] Classmate B
    We've got Student Council
    after school today.
[07:43] Himari
    Okay!
[07:44] Yu
    What?
[07:45] Yu
    Wait, Himari!
[07:46] Himari
    Sorry, Yu.
[07:47] Himari
    I totally forgot about Student Council.
[07:50] Himari
    You two get started without me!
[07:53] Himari
    Don't worry! I'll get it over
    with in no time!
[07:59] Yu
    You've gotta be kidding...
[08:04] Yu
    Hurry, hurry, hurry!
[08:11] Yu
    Why is it like this today of all days?
[08:14] Yu
    First thing's first! Gotta start cleaning!
[08:20] Yu
    There. That should do it.
[08:24] Yu
    Now I just have to make sure
    Saku-nee-san doesn't see Enomoto-san.
[08:31] Yu
    Come on in!
[08:41] Rion
    Hello.
[08:42] Yu
    W-Welcome.
[08:44] Yu
    Come on inside.
[08:46] Rion
    Thanks for having me.
[08:48] Yu
    Her outfit's so cute.
[08:51] Yu
    And she wore my hair pin.
[08:54] Yu
    No one's here, so make yourself at home.
[08:58] Rion
    Really?
[08:59] Yu
    They're all at the store across the street.
[09:01] Yu
    My family owns it.
    I work there sometimes, too.
[09:05] Rion
    Th-Then it's just us
    until Hii-chan comes over?
[09:15] Yu
    Something the matter?
[09:18] Rion
    Nothing, just...
[09:20] Rion
    There's no flowers.
[09:21] Yu
    Oh, right.
[09:23] Yu
    I store them here so Daifuku
    doesn't get into them.
[09:27] Yu
    Some flowers are toxic to cats.
[09:29] Rion
    Wow, Yu-kun. It's like a world for fairies.
[09:33] Rion
    What's this called?
[09:34] Yu
    That's cherry sage.
[09:36] Yu
    They're known as herbs,
    but the flowers have a relaxing scent.
[09:40] Yu
    So I like to keep them out
    when I'm studying or playing games.
[09:44] Rion
    Wow. So you made it both
    beautiful and practical.
[09:48] Yu
    S-Sure, not that I came up with it.
[09:51] Yu
    All right then. Let me start
    with a review of yesterday.
[09:55] Yu
    Enomoto-san, can you
    help me if I get stuck?
[09:59] Rion
    Totally. I think I can go over most topics.
[10:02] Rion
    I'm actually second in our class.
[10:03] Rion
    Perfect scores in four of five subjects.
[10:05] Yu
    For real? I didn't expect that.
[10:08] Rion
    You didn't?
[10:09] Yu
    N-Not like that!
[10:11] Yu
    I just had no idea you
    were that good at studying.
[10:14] Yu
    If you're in second place, then who's first?
[10:16] Yu
    They must have had perfect
    scores in every subject.
[10:20] Rion
    First place is Shii-kun.
[10:23] Yu
    Of course he is...
[10:24] Rion
    I'll beat him in the finals!
[10:26] Yu
    I'm the only one who can't study.
[10:31] Yu
    Enomoto-san, can you teach me this part?
[10:34] Rion
    Where?
[10:35] Rion
    Umm, oh yeah.
[10:37] Rion
    You can solve this
    by substituting this for x.
[10:40] Rion
    Wait, maybe that's not it.
[10:45] Yu
    Don't look!
[10:46] Yu
    A-Are you thirsty?
[10:48] Yu
    I'll get us something to drink.
[11:03] Yu
    My heart almost stopped.
[11:05] Yu
    Unlike Himari, Enomoto-san
    does that unknowingly.
[11:09] Yu
    Himari better hurry up
    while I can still keep my cool.
[11:13] Yu
    Not that I can keep my cool
    with her, either.
[11:36] Rion
    Upsy-daisy.
[11:44] Yu
    Enomoto-san...
[11:45] Rion
    I couldn't help it! It was
    the scent of cherry sage!
[11:49] Yu
    Cherry sage?
[11:50] Rion
    It smelled so nice, and then I realized...
[11:53] Rion
    The same scent was coming
    from your bed, so...
[11:56] Yu
    Oh, that.
[11:58] Yu
    It's probably this.
[12:00] Yu
    I was drinking this on my bed,
    and spilled a bit of it.
[12:03] Yu
    It's cherry sage tea. Try some.
[12:06] Rion
    It smells so good.
[12:11] Rion
    That's really good!
[12:19] Rion
    You're right.
[12:21] Rion
    It smells like cherry sage tea.
[12:24] Yu
    That's a bit embarrassing.
[12:31] Rion
    Well... I like you, Yu-kun.
[12:36] Yu
    Back when Himari and I weren't talking,
[12:38] Yu
    Enomoto-san confessed to me
    for the first time.
[12:42] Yu
    I was preparing to use up all my flowers
[12:44] Yu
    so I could go to Tokyo with Himari.
[12:48] Yu
    It's not even like I asked for her help.
[12:50] Yu
    But before I knew it,
    she was making them with me.
[12:58] (Flashback) Rion
    I like you.
[13:00] (Flashback) Rion
    I've liked you for seven years.
[13:03] Yu
    If I hadn't realized my feelings
    for Himari back then,
[13:08] Yu
    what would I have done?
[13:11] Yu
    Since then, Enomoto-san
    has been more direct with me.
[13:16] Yu
    Phew, done.
[13:18] Yu
    Now to check my answers.
[13:21] Yu
    She's being super trusting.
[13:23] Yu
    Like the day after I turned her down.
[13:26] Yu
    She came up to me and said hi like usual.
[13:30] Yu
    Better wake her up before Himari gets here.
[13:35] Yu
    Enomoto-san, wake up. It's already evening.
[13:41] Yu
    W-W-Wait!
[13:46] Yu
    How is she still asleep?!
[13:48] Yu
    She's like a real-life
    character out of a rom-com manga!
[13:52] Himari
    Yu! I've arrived...
[13:57] Yu
    H-Himari!
[13:58] Yu
    It's not what it looks like!
[13:59] Sakura
    You idiot...
[14:01] Sakura
    How dare you sneak a girl into the house?
[14:03] Sakura
    All while having a girl like Himari-chan?
[14:06] Yu
    I swear it's not!
[14:07] Yu
    We were studying,
    but Enomoto-san fell asleep!
[14:10] Yu
    Enomoto-san, you're so strong!
    How's this possible?
[14:15] Yu
    Wake up! I can't move!
[14:18] Yu
    It's not funny!
[14:20] Rion
    I'm so sorry!
[14:22] Rion
    Just thinking of Yu-kun sleeping here
    every night made me drift off to sleep...
[14:27] Sakura
    So you're Kureha's little sister, huh?
[14:30] Yu
    Saku-nee-san, you know Enomoto-san's sister?
[14:33] Sakura
    Know her? We were high school classmates.
[14:38] Sakura
    We get together with Hibari-kun sometimes
    when she's back from Tokyo.
[14:44] Sakura
    We met this New Year's, too.
[14:46] Himari
    With Onii-chan?
[14:47] Sakura
    Yup. You didn't hear?
[14:49] Himari
    Enocchi's sister is
    a taboo topic in our house.
[14:52] Sakura
    That's no surprise from Hibari-kun.
[14:54] Sakura
    He doesn't like to reveal his weaknesses.
[14:57] Yu
    But still...
[14:59] Yu
    I'm surprised they don't fight.
[15:01] Sakura
    Well they're adults, unlike you guys.
[15:04] Rion
    My sister can be a bit odd.
[15:06] Rion
    So I didn't know she had friends back home.
[15:10] Rion
    Thank you for taking care of her.
[15:13] Sakura
    So, Rion-chan was it?
[15:15] Sakura
    You don't actually like my idiot brother—
[15:21] Sakura
    Seriously?
[15:23] Sakura
    You're so cute, but you
    have awful taste in guys.
[15:26] Sakura
    Just like Kureha.
[15:33] Yu
    Sorry about Saku-nee-san.
[15:37] Rion
    I think she's a great older sister.
[15:39] Yu
    You do?
[15:40] Rion
    She's better than my sister,
[15:41] Rion
    who came back during New Year's
    but couldn't be bothered
[15:45] Rion
    to give any of us family members a heads up.
[15:47] Yu
    Okay...
[15:49] Himari
    But you know...
[15:50] Himari
    Just something I noticed.
[15:52] Himari
    Neither of you seemed too
    bothered by Sakura-san teasing you.
[15:58] Yu
    Enomoto-san confessed
    to me during our fight.
[16:01] Himari
    Wh-What?!
[16:03] Himari
    And you still tried to go to Tokyo with me?
[16:07] Himari
    What's wrong with you?
[16:08] Yu
    Well, I turned her down.
[16:09] Himari
    B-But you've both been so normal.
[16:13] Himari
    Isn't that usually an awkward situation?
[16:15] Yu
    She's actually confessed
    three times already.
[16:18] Himari
    Three times?
[16:19] Yu
    If I count that last one, four times.
[16:21] Himari
    J-Just now? All while I was gone?
[16:27] Rion
    Yes, I did.
[16:29] Himari
    Yu, what the heck?!
[16:31] Himari
    Taking advantage of Enocchi
    and keeping her around?
[16:33] Himari
    That's not like you!
[16:35] Yu
    Um, well I turn her down every time.
[16:39] Yu
    But it's always business as usual
    the next day, and she bakes me cookies.
[16:44] Himari
    Don't get lured in by cookies!
[16:45] Yu
    H-Hey Himari, calm down.
[16:46] Himari
    You can't be wishy washy like that!
[16:48] Himari
    Even if she is your first crush!
[16:53] Rion
    First crush?
[16:54] Rion
    Yu-kun, is that true?
[16:56] Yu
    Himari!
[16:57] Yu
    Why are you exposing me like that?
[16:59] Himari
    I'm sorry!
[17:01] Yu
    You're my first crush, but I'm not sure
    if that means I like you now.
[17:08] Yu
    And I can't accept your offer
    just because you're pretty.
[17:13] Rion
    Yu-kun...
[17:17] Rion
    Gotcha! Good to know for next time!
[17:19] Himari
    What was that memo?
[17:20] Himari
    Man, you're optimistic.
[17:22] Yu
    Anyways, what about you two?
[17:24] Yu
    You seemed awkward until this morning.
[17:26] Rion
    Oh yeah! Hmph!
[17:28] Yu
    That's not very convincing.
[17:31] Rion
    I totally forgot.
[17:32] Rion
    I wasn't supposed to talk to Hii-chan.
[17:35] Yu
    You weren't?
[17:35] Himari
    From a couple days ago.
[17:37] Himari
    She messaged me.
[17:38] Yu
    That didn't last long.
[17:40] Yu
    Enomoto-san, you forgot after
    the whole study group thing, didn't you?
[17:44] Rion
    Because Hii-chan said she supported me.
[17:47] Rion
    Then she went and tried
    to take you to Tokyo.
[17:50] Yu
    I guess that's partly my fault, too.
[17:53] Rion
    But I know that I don't deserve
    to get mad over that.
[17:58] Rion
    Shii-kun told me that I shouldn't complain
    until I've worked hard to be number one.
[18:04] Rion
    Hii-chan's worked two years
    to be Yu-kun's number one.
[18:07] Rion
    I haven't worked at all in seven years.
[18:09] Rion
    I have no right to criticize Hii-chan.
[18:12] Rion
    That's why I'll become both Yu-kun
    and Hii-chan's number one!
[18:17] Yu/Himari
    Come again?
[18:19] Rion
    If I become Yu-kun's number one
    and Hii-chan's number one friend,
[18:25] Rion
    everything works out, right?
[18:26] Yu
    So she would feel bad
    coming between Himari and me,
[18:30] Yu
    so instead, she's gonna
    take both of us for herself?
[18:34] Yu
    Is this a threat? What kind of
    wartime general is she?
[18:37] Yu
    Uh, Enomoto-san...
[18:39] Rion
    After thinking about it, Hii-chan's
    worked really hard as the main model.
[18:43] Rion
    So I should respect that role as hers.
[18:47] Himari
    U-Um, thanks.
[18:49] Rion
    Besides, if I'm gonna work hard for Yu-kun,
[18:51] Rion
    I can't just copy her.
[18:53] Rion
    That's why I was hoping
    to help you behind the scenes.
[18:56] Rion
    What do you think?
[18:59] Yu
    If you're okay with that.
[19:01] Rion
    Yay! That works better for me anyways
    since I have club after school.
[19:05] Rion
    If I learn more about
    online orders and shipping,
[19:08] Rion
    I bet I can help out more
    with my family's cake shop, too!
[19:10] Yu
    Well if that's the case, great.
[19:13] Himari
    Enocchi's stubborn when she gets like this.
[19:16] Himari
    I think it's a great idea.
[19:18] Yu
    Then we'd love to work with you!
[19:22] Rion
    Great! I'll do my best!
[19:23] Himari
    Let's celebrate the new You team!
[19:34] Hibari
    You do realize what you just did, right?
[19:37] Hibari
    Letting Enomoto's little sister join you.
[19:40] Himari
    It couldn't be helped.
[19:41] Himari
    She was so sincere about us being friends.
[19:46] Himari
    Honestly, I know I did
    a terrible thing by telling her
[19:50] Himari
    I'd support her then going behind her back.
[19:53] Himari
    Onii-chan, I heard you still
    hang out with Kureha-san.
[19:57] Hibari
    Sakura-kun told you?
[19:58] Hibari
    She always lets things slip.
[20:01] Himari
    You're still not over her?
[20:03] Hibari
    Never mind me, worry about yourself.
[20:07] Himari
    Why?
[20:08] Hibari
    Not only did you mistake the balance
    between friendship and romance,
[20:12] Hibari
    you chose the wrong partner
    to create accessories with.
[20:16] Hibari
    First, your emotions got the best of you,
    and Yu-kun had to retake his exams.
[20:22] Hibari
    Now, you're holding Yu-kun back under
    the guise of being his best friend.
[20:26] Hibari
    If you can't help each other be better,
    you have no right to stand beside him.
[20:34] Hibari
    It's not like Yu-kun's dream
    depends on your support.
[20:38] Hibari
    I could just adopt him
    into the Inuzuka family.
[20:41] Himari
    Onii-chan, you never think
    about anyone besides Yu.
[20:46] Himari
    So? What am I supposed to do now?
[20:50] Hibari
    Stop lying to Yu-kun.
[20:53] Himari
    Lying?
[20:54] Hibari
    You have a habit of preparing
    an escape route.
[20:57] Hibari
    Until you fix that, you'll lose to Enomoto's
    sister and never be Yu-kun's equal.
[21:04] Himari
    I understand. I accept that challenge.
[21:08] Hibari
    Very well then.
[21:10] Hibari
    How about some treats on the way home?
[21:12] Himari
    Really?
[21:13] Hibari
    It's my fault for not being able to
    let Enomoto's sister in our house.
[21:20] Hibari
    Buy whatever you'd like.
[21:21] Himari
    Thanks, Onii-chan!
[21:23] Himari
    Then I want some ice cream
    or black Mont Blanc!
[21:27] Himari
    Oh yeah, Onii-chan.
[21:28] Himari
    About the no lying thing,
    what's considered a lie?
[21:34] Hibari
    Himari! That's the problem with you!
[21:35] Himari
    I'm sorry! I didn't mean to!
[21:37] Himari
    It was a reflex!
[21:40] Hibari
    That kind of thoughtless banter
    risks Yu-kun losing his cool!
[21:45] Himari
    I understand!
[21:46] Himari
    I'll be an honest person
    so I can be Yu's equal!

[01:48] Yu
    I was so relieved about passing exams,
    I let work get away from me.
[01:52] Yu
    Now that Enomoto-san's joined the team,
[01:56] Yu
    I gotta work even harder as a creator.
[01:59] Yu
    Like Saku-nee-san said,
    I need to quit being stuck in time.
[02:04] Himari
    Yu!
[02:06] Himari
    Morning!
[02:10] Yu
    M-Morning.
[02:18] Yu
    Well played, main model!
[02:20] Yu
    You know my weakness!
[02:22] Yu
    But alas!
[02:24] Yu
    Oh yeah, Himari.
[02:25] Yu
    You check out that dog post I sent you?
[02:28] Himari
    Yup! Sure did!
[02:30] Himari
    I know you're just acting slick.
[02:32] Himari
    I see you eyeing my summer uniform!
[02:35] Yu
    Shut up.
[02:37] Yu
    I'm still scarred over you humiliating me
    in front of the class last year.
[02:41] Himari
    Don't sweat it!
[02:42] Himari
    Everyone has a secret fetish or two.
[02:46] Himari
    I'm not shy about how much I love your eyes.
[02:50] Yu
    You tell people that?
[02:52] Yu
    Won't that give people the wrong idea?
[02:55] Himari
    Wrong idea how?
[02:57] Yu
    D-Dammit, she's trying to pressure me
    into saying it out loud.
[03:01] Yu
    But I'm a changed man!
[03:07] Yu
    You know exactly how.
[03:10] Yu
    People will look at us like we're dating.
[03:14] Yu
    Deep down, I bet you actually
    want to go out with me.
[03:22] Yu
    What's that look like she's
    so happy she can't contain herself?
[03:27] Himari
    Then... what if we really went out?
[03:33] Yu
    What?! But we're in class—
[03:39] Yu
    Wait. I know what happens next.
[03:43] Himari
    Ow! Come on, Yu!
[03:46] Himari
    Stop acting rebellious like Enocchi!
[03:50] Yu
    Shut up.
[03:51] Himari
    It's not my fault you suck at romance!
[03:54] Himari
    So much for trying to trick me.
[03:59] Yu
    I wish I had a good comeback...
[04:04] Himari
    So what's the plan today?
[04:06] Yu
    Enomoto-san doesn't
    have band practice today,
[04:10] Yu
    so I was thinking of having a team meeting.
[04:13] Rion
    Yu-kun, Hii-chan.
[04:18] Rion
    Sorry about the wait!
[04:20] Himari
    Man, Enocchi. Those things are lethal.
[04:22] Yu
    You look nice in the summer uniform.
[04:25] Rion
    Th-Thanks.

[04:46] Himari
    So what's the agenda?
[04:47] Yu
    I think the first thing is what
    to do with our inventory.
[04:51] Yu
    Since preserved flowers
    change colors with time.
[04:54] Rion
    Really?
[04:56] Rion
    Then we should promote
    them as soon as we can.
[04:59] Himari
    Yup! So next, we shoot promos
    and post them online. Right?
[05:07] Yu
    R-Right, with Himari as the model.
[05:12] Himari
    Gee, I hope that didn't seem
     like a leading question!
[05:16] Yu
    Whatever it was, I don't like it.

    Oh, there he is!

    Hey Himari-san! And Enomoto-san!
[05:26] Mao
    Woah, this is a crazy good-looking group.
[05:31] Himari
    Hey, Mao-py and Azu-kyun! What's up?
[05:35] Mao
    We wanted to ask about those accessories
    you promised us the other day!
[05:41] Yu
    Oh yeah!
SIGN    Science Room
[05:45] Yu
    Phew.
[05:47] Yu
    You can take any of the ones in here.
[05:50] Mao
    No, that's not special enough!
[05:53] Azumi
    We want custom ones!
[05:56] Yu
    I figured you might say that.
[05:58] Himari
    Could you start by letting
    us know what you want?
[06:03] Himari
    Custom-made pieces can get expensive.
[06:06] Himari
    So you might wanna think about your budget.
[06:08] Himari
    And besides...
[06:11] Himari
    Yu decides what pieces to make.
[06:14] Mao
    My bad. I thought it was
    the same as the other ones.
[06:18] Azumi
    See, it's Mao and her boyfriend's
    anniversary next month.
[06:22] Mao
    I wanted a matching pair of accessories,
[06:25] Mao
    but haven't been able to find any that work.
[06:28] Yu
    You mean you want a piece for a guy
    and girl under the same concept?
[06:32] Mao
    Exactly!
[06:34] Yu
    Not a bad idea.
[06:35] Yu
    A matching set would be a new challenge.
[06:40] Himari
    Looks like Yu's up for it!
[06:44] Mao/Azumi
    Yay!
[06:48] Yu
    That was exhausting.
[06:50] Himari
    Yu, you gotta toughen up.
[06:53] Himari
    Creators have to engage
    with customers in this day and age!
[06:57] Yu
    Yeah, but those two are so outgoing.
[07:00] Yu
    I want customers who are a bit tamer.
[07:03] Rion
    Keeping notes...
[07:05] Rion
    "That face means Yu-kun's up for it."
[07:08] Yu
    Is that necessary?
[07:10] Himari
    So we're going to plan
    something for those two,
[07:13] Himari
    while clearing out inventory. Sound good?
[07:17] Rion
    Okay!
[07:19] Yu
    Roger that.
[07:25] Yu
    About the flower for this piece...
[07:27] Yu
    I'm thinking the Japanese cornel.
[07:29] Rion
    Cornel?
[07:31] Himari
    Umm... This?
[07:34] Himari
    It represents maintenance,
    resilience, and mature spirit.
[07:39] Himari
    But why this? Kinda has
    an old lady vibe, doesn't it?
[07:43] Yu
    Remember when we met with that couple?
[07:47] Yu
    Instead of an intense love,
    they gave off a tangible vibe.
[07:56] Yu
    The Japanese cornel is the flower of health.
[07:59] Yu
    If we're talking about a long,
    sustainable relationship,
[08:02] Yu
    I thought something more
    down-to-earth would suit them.
[08:06] Yu
    You think it's a bit too cheesy?
[08:08] Himari
    Don't say that.
[08:10] Himari
    It's ultimately up to the customer,
[08:12] Himari
    but we respect your vision as the creator.
[08:16] Rion
    Yup!
[08:17] Yu
    Th-Thanks.
[08:19] Himari
    What about the price?
[08:21] Yu
    That's the only hang-up...
[08:23] Rion
    Is there a problem?
[08:25] Yu
    Honestly, I think our prices right now
    are too expensive for high schoolers.
[08:30] Himari
    Yeah, teenagers only make up
    10% of our customers overall.
[08:35] Yu
    And we've flown under
    the radar at school so far
[08:38] Yu
    since everything has been
    sold through social media.
[08:42] Rion
    But there's other girls like me...
[08:44] Himari
    Yeah, and now that people know who you are,
[08:47] Himari
    you might be getting a lot more attention.
[08:50] Yu
    Is it bad if I get more attention?
[08:52] Himari
    Well what if girls—
[08:53] Rion
    You might get really popular with girls!
[08:56] Yu
    Enomoto-san, don't say dumb stuff like that.
[09:00] Rion
    D-Dumb...?
[09:02] Yu
    Sorry! It slipped out!
[09:04] Yu
    I reacted like I would with Himari!
[09:07] Rion
    That means I'm catching up
    to Hii-chan, right?
[09:10] Yu
    You're so positive...
[09:12] Himari
    I guess it's not a bad thing
    for customers to come to you.
[09:15] Yu
    Yeah.
[09:17] Yu
    I'll try to engage with
    customers more for You's sake.
[09:24] Yu
    It might just be the breakthrough I need,

[09:56] Boyfriend
    Makes sense.
[09:57] Boyfriend

    like the rumors said!
[11:29] Classmate C
    Hi there!
[11:31] Classmate C
    Is it true that You's accessories will
    make your crush fall in love with you?
[11:37] Himari
    People are getting carried away
    with this made-to-order thing.
[11:41] Himari
    They're more willing to pay
    the hiked price since
[11:45] Himari
    these are completely unique pieces,
    unlike the ones before.
[11:50] Himari
    And those two are too good
    at promoting this stuff!
[11:53] (Flashback) Mao
    Don't be shy!
[11:55] (Flashback) Azumi
    We can totally spread
    the word on how great these are!
[11:59] (Flashback) Mao/Azumi
    Leave it to us!
[12:01] Himari
    It started as an "original" accessory.
[12:03] Himari
    Then it became a "one-of-a-kind
    accessory made to order."
[12:06] Himari
    Now it's an accessory that'll "make
    your romantic wishes come true."
[12:09] Rion
    Can't we ask them to hold off on promo?
[12:12] Yu
    How can we? They're so happy to do it.
[12:15] Himari
    You have to admit, it is nice of them.
[12:18] Yu
    We'll just have to power through it.
[12:22] Himari
    Yu! How's it going?
[12:24] Yu
    I'm amazed at this space
    Hibari-san prepared for me.
[12:29] Yu
    Oh, and sorry to be here while you're out.
[12:33] Himari
    It's fine.
[12:34] Himari
    We can't leave the science room
    unattended in case a new client pops in.
[12:39] Yu
    I appreciate it.
[12:41] Yu
    I can hardly get anything done
    at home thanks to Daifuku.
[12:44] Yu
    So I might be cooped up in here for a while.
[12:47] Himari
    Shouldn't you get some rest?
[12:49] Himari
    I'll wake you up when Enocchi gets here.
[12:52] Yu
    What are you doing?
[12:53] Himari
    Inviting you to rest on my
    cute little lap, of course.
[12:56] Himari
    You can't be stupid enough
    to decline this offer.
[12:59] Yu
    You being cute is exactly
    why I'd have to decline.
[13:03] Yu
    Oh well. It's not like anyone will see.
[13:09] Himari
    "If this were Enocchi, I bet
    I wouldn't be able to see her face."
[13:12] Himari
    Is that what you're thinking?
[13:14] Yu
    O-Of course not!
[13:15] Yu
    Himari-san, napping on your lap is the best!
[13:18] Himari
    Ew, are you picking up phrases
    from Makishima-kun?
[13:22] Himari
    Don't even think about copying that player.
[13:27] Yu
    Cut the crap. Let me sleep.
[13:32] Yu
    Himari. Can I ask you something?
[13:35] Yu
    Remember when I made
    a piece for Enomoto-san?
[13:39] Yu
    You said you wanted an accessory of romance.
[13:41] Himari
    Oh my gosh, that's so embarrassing.
[13:46] Himari
    Why do you ask? You
    feeling romance towards me?
[13:48] Yu
    Shut up. But what about you?
[13:52] Yu
    You had a bad experience
    with Makishima's exes in middle school.
[13:56] Yu
    You've hated romance ever since? Even now?
[13:59] Himari
    Hmm...
[14:02] Himari
    Yup!
[14:03] Yu
    Then why did you ask
    for a piece about romance?
[14:07] Himari
    Because Enocchi looked so cute in hers.
[14:11] Yu
    Oh... Okay.
[14:14] Yu
    I was afraid it meant she fell
    for another guy.
[14:19] Yu
    I always thought I'd be fine
    if Himari got a boyfriend.
[14:24] Yu
    But now... even if
    it's just as a best friend,
[14:26] Yu
    I want her by my side forever.
[14:30] Yu
    Himari's nice enough
    to do that if I ask her.
[14:34] Yu
    But I don't wanna take
    advantage of her like that.
[14:40] Yu
    That's why I need to work
    harder... to be her equal...
[14:59] Himari
    I wonder if it's because
    he's been so focused on work.
[15:02] Himari
    Yu's clearly changed.
[15:05] Himari
    Before, all he needed
    was to satisfy himself.
[15:10] Himari
    But now, his eyes are burning with passion.
[15:13] Himari
    He gives me goosebumps now.
[15:15] Himari
    And it scares me at the same time.
[15:18] Himari
    Like he might leave me
    and go off on his own.
[15:23] Himari
    I hate romance.
[15:25] Himari
    Thanks to all these girls caught up in love,
[15:28] Himari
    I've had less time with Yu recently.
[15:30] Himari
    What a drag.
[15:32] Himari
    I don't need a piece about romance.
[15:35] Himari
    As long as I have this best friend ring,
[15:39] Himari
    Yu will stay by my side.
[15:43] Himari
    But if anyone were to ask
    if I wanted to go back
[15:47] Himari
    to the days when we were only friends...
[15:51] Himari
    My answer would be "no."
[15:54] Himari
    Because if I never realized that I loved Yu,
[15:57] Himari
    I wouldn't have known
    the happiness I do now.
[16:03] Himari
    I'm probably living the happiest
    days of my life right now.
[16:08] Himari
    I'm not exaggerating. It's true.
[16:14] Yu
    So we're delivering two pieces today.
[16:19] Yu
    Let's break up into groups
    so we can deliver these—
[16:23] Makishima
    I thought I saw a guy
    with some gorgeous girls.
[16:27] Makishima
    And what do you know? It's Natsu!
[16:31] Himari
    Hey, Makishima-kun. Can we help you?
[16:34] Yu
    You don't have to copy her, Enomoto-san.
[16:36] Makishima
    Remember, Rin-chan.
[16:37] Makishima
    Too much physical contact
    makes it less special.
[16:41] Makishima
    Save that for the right moment
    to leave an impression.
[16:44] Rion
    Oh! Right!
[16:46] Yu
    Don't make note of that.
[16:51] Makishima
    Rin-chan sure makes a great student.
[16:53] Makishima
    She'll beat out Himari-chan
    in no time, don't you worry.
[16:57] Himari
    You know, Makishima-kun.
[16:59] Himari
    Instead of focusing
    on other people's love lives,
[17:01] Himari
    you should make sure your younger
    girlfriend doesn't get fed up of you.
[17:04] Makishima
    More importantly, Natsu.
[17:06] Makishima
    Wanna grab a bite to eat?
[17:08] Makishima
    I thought we could discuss
    the future of You.
[17:13] Yu
    Did you put those two up
    to promoting my accessories?
[17:17] Makishima
    Nope, that was entirely their choice.
[17:20] Makishima
    They may be part of the popular crowd,
[17:23] Makishima
    but they're friendly
    with any circle of students.
[17:26] Makishima
    They love being in other people's business
    but act purely on good intentions.
[17:30] Yu
    Yeah?
[17:32] Makishima
    That's why they were the perfect pair
    to help leak the creator of You.
[17:37] Yu
    What do you mean?
[17:38] Makishima
    Even 100% good intentions can
    sometimes turn into 200% ill intentions.
[17:45] Yu
    I have no clue what you're talking about.
[17:47] Makishima
    I wanted to talk to you
    to apologize beforehand.
[17:50] Makishima
    If everything goes as expected,
[17:52] Makishima
    you might be in for some emotional pain.
[17:55] Yu
    What? Why would you do that?
[17:58] Makishima
    For Rin-chan, of course.
[18:00] Yu
    I'm totally lost.
[18:03] Yu
    Why are you so invested
    in helping Enomoto-san anyways?
[18:06] Makishima
    Because I owe Rin-chan.
[18:09] Makishima
    Something worth way more than
    helping her realize her first love.
[18:17] Yu
    It wasn't long before I found out
    the full scope of Makishima's plans.
[18:25] Sasaki
    Did you make this?
[18:28] Yu
    Y-Yes...
[18:31] Sasaki
    We received a complaint from the parents
    of the female student who bought this.
[18:36] Yu
    A complaint?
[18:38] Sasaki
    They say their daughter was coerced
    into buying this accessory for a high price.
[18:43] Yu
    That's not what happened at all!
[18:45] Yu
    We made this based on her requests
    and shared the price in advance.
[18:50] Yu
    She agreed to it.
[18:52] Sasaki
    Is there proof of that?
[18:55] Yu
    Only a statement of delivery and receipt...
[19:00] Yu
    But that's with Himari.
[19:01] Sasaki
    Okay then. I'll ask Inuzuka about that.
[19:04] Sasaki
    By the way, are your handmade
    accessories sold according to regulations?
[19:10] Yu
    O-Our accessories are accounted under
    my family's convenience store business.
[19:16] Yu
    We've undergone legal processes,
    and my sister manages that side.
[19:20] Sasaki
    That's right, your sister's Sakura.
[19:23] Sasaki
    You've been a handful with your blank exams.
[19:26] Sasaki
    But Sakura was a handful for being so smart.
[19:30] Sasaki
    I'll have to discuss
    with the other teachers first,
[19:33] Sasaki
    but even if the school determines
    your activities are no issue,
[19:37] Sasaki
    the same can't be said
    for other parents who don't know you.
[19:41] Sasaki
    All they know is that their kid bought
    an expensive accessory.
[19:47] Sasaki
    Understand?
[19:48] Yu
    Yes, sir.
[19:49] Sasaki
    I won't tell you to stop making them.
[19:51] Sasaki
    But you'll have to pause sales
    for the time being.
[19:54] Sasaki
    Any orders you've already
    accepted will have to wait. Okay?
[19:59] Himari
    What? That's ridiculous!
[20:01] Rion
    She sounds like a Karen in the making!
[20:04] Yu
    Thankfully, Sasaki-sensei
    did some damage control.
[20:09] Yu
    We're lucky to get off this easy.
[20:11] Himari
    But we'll have to assert ourselves more.
[20:14] Himari
    She's the one lying, after all.
[20:16] Kamako
    Man, that was such a waste of money.
[20:20] Classmate B
    We only did it cause Senpai told us to.
[20:23] Kamako
    Exactly!
[20:24] Kamako
    So dumb!
[20:27] Kamako
    I only bought that expensive thing because
[20:29] Kamako
    they promised it would
    make him like me back!
[20:32] Classmate B
    You think we can return it?
[20:34] Kamako
    So I can admit to them I got dumped? No way.
[20:38] Classmate B
    I bet it's all to make more money.
[20:41] Kamako
    I hate Senpai for dumping me.
[20:43] Kamako
    And whoever spread that rumor.
[20:45] Kamako
    And that guy who made this!
[20:48] Kamako
    They can all go to hell!
[20:51] Yu
    She said she had a crush
    on another senpai from her club.
[20:54] Yu
    She wanted a feminine,
    Japanese-style piece he would like.
[21:00] Yu
    Seeing her talk about her love for him...
[21:02] Yu
    I thought it was beautiful
    how innocent and giddy she looked.
[21:07] Himari
    Hey!
[21:08] Himari
    A lot of work went into that!
[21:11] Himari
    Why would you do something like that?!
[21:13] Kamako
    Let me go!
[21:14] Classmate B
    It's not worth it! Let's go!
[21:18] Yu
    Having feelings for someone
    is a beautiful thing.
[21:23] Yu
    Like how I realized my feelings for Himari,
[21:26] Yu
    and how that motivated me
    to be a better person.
[21:40] (Flashback) Himari
    But "beautiful" doesn't always mean "pure."
[21:45] Rion
    Yu-kun...
[21:47] Yu
    She was right.
[21:49] Yu
    Even something
    as beautiful as loving someone
[21:53] Yu
    doesn't necessarily mean
    their intentions are pure.
[21:57] Yu
    Realizing that made me feel...
[21:59] Yu
    like a huge piece of shit.

[02:00] Mao
    We're so sorry!
[02:01] Mao
    I never imagined this would happen.
[02:04] Azumi
    I swear, we just really wanted to
    promote his accessories.
[02:08] Mao
    So could you please apologize
    to Natsume-kun for us?
[02:13] Himari
    Couldn't they apologize to him themselves?
[02:18] Himari
    It's pretty obvious that word
    has gotten out already.
[02:22] Himari
    Goes to show that my support
    is as important as ever!
[02:28] Himari
    Who else if not me, the main wifey?
[02:31] Himari
    Gotta use my kind, tender embrace to
[02:34] Himari
    boost Yu's trust in Himari-chan!
[02:37] Himari
    Morning!
[02:38] Yu
    What is it? That hurt.
[02:40] Himari
    Seriously? It's the same as usual.
[02:43] Yu
    Yeah, I guess.
[02:48] Himari
    I guess he's still not over it.
[02:51] Himari
    Oh well, it'll be fine!
[02:55] Himari
    This is only a small bump
    in the road towards our dream.
[03:01] Yu
    I get why you went out of your way
    to apologize the other day.
[03:05] Makishima
    Here's an offer then.
[03:08] Makishima
    Go ahead and hit me. You have that right.
[03:14] Yu
    That wouldn't change a thing.
[03:17] Yu
    Besides, I might have done the same as you
[03:20] Yu
    if I ever wanted to help someone in love.
[03:23] Makishima
    Wow, Natsu. That's unusually mature of you.
[03:27] Makishima
    Did something happen?
[03:28] Yu
    I dunno.
[03:29] Yu
    Maybe your plan worked.
[03:35] Himari
    You're not in an awkward
    spot in band, are you?
[03:39] Rion
    No... I never took any orders.
[03:43] Rion
    What's gonna happen to the store?
[03:47] Himari
    We'll need to focus on damage control first.
[03:50] Himari
    Maybe I'll take Yu out somewhere
    over the weekend.
[03:54] Himari
    That way, he can lighten up
    and get back to work.
[03:56] Rion
    Are you sure that'll help?
[03:59] Himari
    What do you mean?
[04:00] Rion
    I mean, that must have been
    really traumatic.
[04:03] Rion
    Can he get over it just like that?
[04:06] Himari
    Don't worry about it!
[04:08] Himari
    Yu's never skipped
    a day of making accessories.
[04:12] Himari
    He'll bounce back!
[04:14] Rion
    When you're hurt by something you love,
    it can leave a scar that lasts forever.
[04:24] Himari
    Did Makishima-kun teach you
    to rattle me like that?
[04:28] Rion
    This has nothing to do with Shii-kun.
[04:30] Himari
    But he's the one who set
    up this whole situation.
[04:34] Himari
    I wouldn't be surprised
    if you were in on it.
[04:38] Rion
    I'd never do that!
[04:39] Rion
    Do you seriously think that?
[04:42] Himari
    Well, why not?
[04:43] Himari
    You act like you're a ditz,
    but you're pretty calculating.
[04:46] Himari
    Like that study group!
[04:48] Himari
    You pretended to be
    asleep so you could hug Yu.
[04:50] Rion
    I-I wasn't pretending!
[04:53] Himari
    Sounds fishier the more you deny it.
[05:01] Himari
    Hey, Yu. Where have you been?
[05:03] Yu
    At Sasaki-sensei's.
[05:05] Yu
    Went to grab the accessories
    that were returned.
[05:13] Himari
    My dear Yu isn't
    as weak as you are, Enocchi.
[05:16] Rion
    I really hate when you're
    like this, Hii-chan.
[05:23] Rion
    What should we do with them?
[05:25] Yu
    We can't resell them.
[05:28] Yu
    They may be damaged.
[05:30] Rion
    Oh...
[05:31] Himari
    You know, I'm still upset
    about this whole ordeal.
[05:36] Himari
    These were all made-to-order,
    and they agreed to the prices.
[05:40] Yu
    It can't be helped.
[05:42] Yu
    They're arguing that we conned them.
[05:46] Himari
    Something's wrong.
[05:48] Himari
    Yu's never this mature.
[05:51] Himari
    And it feels so gloomy.
[05:56] Himari
    Then what's done is done. I'll get over it!
[05:59] Himari
    Let's go somewhere this
    weekend for a change!
[06:03] Himari
    Yeah, Enocchi?
[06:04] Rion
    S-Sure, sounds good.
[06:06] Rion
    Can we stop by the tea shop in the mall?
[06:10] Himari
    I wanna check out some summer clothes!
[06:13] Himari
    Think of it as inspo
    for your next accessories.
[06:15] Himari
    How's that sound?
[06:18] Yu
    Actually, I'm thinking
    about quitting until we graduate.
[06:26] Himari
    D-Don't joke about things like that!
[06:29] Himari
    You could lose friends that way!
[06:33] Yu
    I'm not joking.
[06:35] Yu
    I was wrong for acting like some
    entrepreneur as a student in the first place.
[06:40] Himari
    H-Hang on.
[06:42] Himari
    You started the store because
    you wanted to make accessories!
[06:45] Himari
    Sensei himself said he won't stop you
    from selling them online.
[06:49] Yu
    But everyone's been looking
    at me weird ever since.
[06:53] Yu
    You know they've been
    talking behind my back.
[06:56] Himari
    Who cares? Just ignore them!
[06:59] Yu
    I don't have thick skin like you.
[07:03] Yu
    Besides, why does it matter?
[07:06] Yu
    I'm not quitting forever.
[07:09] Yu
    Just spending time to broaden
    my horizons until graduati—
[07:11] Himari
    Stop, stop! Let's be rational.
[07:13] Himari
    Here, have some juice!
[07:16] Yu
    I don't want any.
[07:22] Yu
    Himari, jeez...
[07:24] Himari
    I-It's your fault!
[07:27] Himari
    Saying you wanna quit out of nowhere.
[07:29] Yu
    Like I said, only until we graduate.
[07:32] Himari
    But I don't want you to quit.
[07:35] Himari
    I've always told you.
[07:36] Himari
    Your eyes shine brightest
    when you make accessories.
[07:42] Himari
    Come on, please?
[07:44] Himari
    I'll do anything I can to help.
[07:46] Yu
    So in your eyes, I'm worthless
    if I'm not making accessories?
[07:52] Himari
    I didn't say that.
[07:54] Himari
    But it's our dream.
[07:56] Yu
    Opening a store is my dream.
[07:59] Yu
    No one else has the right
    to force me to do it!
[08:06] Himari
    Are you serious?
[08:13] Yu
    Himari!
[08:14] Rion
    Hii-chan!
[08:25] Himari
    Fine, I get it.
[08:27] Himari
    Have it your way!
[08:45] Hibari
    Himari, dinner's ready.
[08:48] Hibari
    Why haven't you changed yet?
[08:52] Hibari
    Upset about something?
[08:54] Himari
    Yu's apparently quitting
    accessories until we graduate.
[08:58] Hibari
    Let me guess...
[09:00] Hibari
    You pushed Yu-kun too hard about
[09:03] Hibari
    his next piece when he was at a low point?
[09:07] Himari
    Because...!
[09:11] Himari
    What if Yu really lost his passion?
[09:17] Hibari
    Himari, you're finally catching on.
[09:21] Hibari
    Good job. You did the right thing.
[09:25] Hibari
    When I told you to stop lying,
[09:27] Hibari
    I meant be honest with yourself.
[09:30] Hibari
    So it's good that you told Yu-kun
    how you really felt.
[09:34] Himari
    Then Yu will understand, right?
[09:39] Hibari
    Who knows?
[09:41] Hibari
    Right now, there's nothing else we can do.
[09:45] Hibari
    Yu-kun will have to
    overcome this on his own.
[09:49] Hibari
    After all, creativity
    is about facing the self.
[09:54] Hibari
    Yu-kun tried to reach
    his goal, and as a result,
[09:58] Hibari
    he got shot down
    by the ill intent of others.
[10:02] Hibari
    But that's inevitable
    if he wants to pursue this path.
[10:07] Hibari
    Can he laugh and shrug it off
[10:10] Hibari
    when someone unfairly taints his work?
[10:14] Hibari
    That's the crossroads he's at.
[10:16] Hibari
    Only those who overcome
    this can move forward.
[10:20] Hibari
    No words of encouragement
    or solace can do that for him.
[10:25] Hibari
    Himari, what can you do right now?
[10:29] Himari
    Didn't you just say
    there's nothing I can do?
[10:32] Hibari
    Sure, Yu-kun has to help himself back up.
[10:36] Hibari
    But you have your own role as his partner.
[10:39] Hibari
    As Yu-kun's best friend,
    you've been spoiled by his kindness.
[10:45] Hibari
    But when it comes to his accessories,
    it's been the opposite.
[10:48] Hibari
    Yu-kun's been spoiled by you, Himari.
[10:51] Himari
    What do you mean?
[10:53] Hibari
    Think back to when You
    announced new releases.
[10:55] Hibari
    Either you or Sakura-kun laid
    the groundwork.
[10:58] Hibari
    Like a playground frozen in time, Yu-kun's
     talent was nurtured in a closed environment.
[11:02] Hibari
    He was vulnerable to external exposure.
[11:05] Hibari
    Before long, Yu-kun would need to
     practice dealing with the outside world.
[11:09] Hibari
    Feeling defeated, Yu-kun tried
    to retreat back to his playground.
[11:13] Hibari
    But you pushed back and told him no.
[11:15] Hibari
    As his partner, you showed him the way out.
[11:19] Hibari
    Now, it's Yu-kun's turn to answer the call.
[11:22] Hibari
    Himari, if you truly share
    destinies with Yu-kun,
[11:26] Hibari
    what can you do for him
    now as his best friend?
[11:34] Yu
    About yesterday, that was my bad.
[11:36] Yu
    I took it too far.
[11:40] Himari
    Did Enocchi and Sakura-san tell you that?
[11:43] Yu
    No, I know I was in the wrong.
[11:46] Yu
    Besides, you've worked so hard for me—
[11:47] Himari
    I'm not talking about that.
[11:49] Himari
    What about your work?
[11:54] Yu
    That's a done deal.
[11:56] Yu
    I'm quitting until we graduate.
[12:02] Himari
    If that's what you really want, fine.
[12:05] Himari
    I'll quit being your best friend then.
[12:09] Himari
    If you won't make accessories anymore,
[12:11] Himari
    you and I are only acquaintances.
[12:13] Yu
    A-Are you for real?
[12:15] Yu
    Why are you getting so upset about this?
[12:17] Yu
    Sure, I was wrong
    for what I said yesterday, but—
[12:20] Himari
    But you're still quitting, right?
[12:24] Yu
    Well...
[12:26] Himari
    Opening your store isn't just your dream.
[12:28] Himari
    It's been mine for a long time, too!
[12:30] Himari
    You can't just decide to quit on your own!
[12:34] Himari
    Sure, I have fun with you,
    and I'd like to stay best friends.
[12:37] Himari
    But if you're gonna stomp on my dreams,
[12:41] Himari
    then we're not friends.
[12:44] Himari
    I refuse to play nice like Enocchi.
[12:49] Himari
    Sorry, but I'm moving forward without you.
[12:54] Yu
    You're one to talk.
    You tried to quit, too.
[13:02] Yu
    After that...
[13:03] Yu
    The weekend came and went without Himari.
[13:06] Classmate A
    Himari-chan! Whatcha up to today?
[13:10] Himari
    I actually have plans today, sorry!
[13:17] Rion
    Yu-kun.
SIGN    Natsume
[13:23] Yu
    There, Enomoto-san!
[13:24] Rion
    Got it!
[13:25] Rion
    What? How?
[13:28] Rion
    I'll get you this time!
[13:32] Yu
    Enomoto-san, you gotta learn to aim.
[13:34] Rion
    Aim? How do I do that?!
[13:36] Yu
    So your screen stays stable.
[13:38] Rion
    I can't figure it out!
[13:42] Yu
    She's so clueless.
[13:46] Rion
    I took down one person,
    so I must be getting better.
[13:49] Rion
    This is so much fun.
[13:52] Yu
    Yeah, it sure is.
[13:57] Rion
    Yu-kun, you're not a very good liar.
[14:00] Yu
    I'm not lying. I have fun
    playing games with you.
[14:04] Rion
    Not as much as when
    you're making accessories.
[14:08] Yu
    That was until last week.
[14:10] Yu
    Who wants to make accessories just
    to go through all that?
[14:13] Rion
    You're lying.
[14:14] Rion
    You wouldn't be able to spend two years
    with Hii-chan if you were that soft.
[14:19] Yu
    That's none of your business.
[14:21] Rion
    Sure it is.
[14:22] Rion
    I decided to be number one. For both of you.
[14:28] Yu
    What a drag.
[14:30] Yu
    I said, "What a drag."
[14:32] Yu
    What gives you the right to judge the
    relationship between me and Himari?
[14:35] Yu
    I hate how you stick your nose
    in other people's business.
[14:41] Rion
    I'm glad you feel comfortable
    enough to say stuff like that.
[14:44] Rion
    It's like I'm getting closer to Hii-chan.
[14:47] Yu
    You've gotta be kidding!
[14:49] Yu
    I'm pretty sure I just said
    something really messed up.
[14:52] Rion
    Like I said, it's obvious when you're lying.
[14:57] Rion
    So it's no use.
[15:01] Yu
    Can I ask you something?
[15:12] Yu
    Here.
[15:13] Yu
    Who does it look like I made this for?
[15:17] Rion
    Hii-chan.
[15:18] Yu
    I figured.
[15:20] Yu
    In that moment, I didn't feel anything.
[15:24] Yu
    Even though I sacrificed sleep to make it.
[15:27] Yu
    I didn't even feel mad.
[15:30] Yu
    So I asked myself.
[15:31] Yu
    What's the passion behind my accessories?
[15:35] Yu
    Why in the world am I making them?
[15:39] Yu
    That was when I realized...
[15:41] Yu
    I was only making accessories
    so Himari would keep me around.
[15:48] Yu
    So I wouldn't lose the first
    person who understood what I loved.
[15:51] Yu
    So I wouldn't lose my first best friend.
[15:56] Yu
    I was just using people's
    love lives as a stepping stone.
[16:00] Yu
    All to make accessories for myself.
[16:03] Yu
    I felt so disgusted with myself...
[16:08] Yu
    For thinking love was so pure...
[16:12] Yu
    For thinking my feelings were genuine.
[16:16] Yu
    I couldn't have been more wrong.
[16:19] Yu
    That's why I wanted to
    quit making accessories.
[16:23] Yu
    Otherwise, it wouldn't be right
    to the craft or to customers.
[16:28] Rion
    Yu-kun.
[16:33] Rion
    Get over yourself!
[16:35] Rion
    I think you're overthinking it.
[16:38] Rion
    Loosen up a little.
[16:41] Yu
    Loosen up?
[16:43] Yu
    It'd be nice if I could
    be as earnest as you.
[16:48] Yu
    But I wouldn't have so much doubt
    if that were the case.
[16:51] Rion
    Me, earnest? How?
[16:55] Yu
    I mean, you're always
    helping your family's store.
[16:58] Yu
    You work really hard in band.
[17:00] Yu
    And you help me.
[17:02] Rion
    I kinda hate helping at my family's store.
[17:06] Rion
    I only joined band
    because my friend asked me to.
[17:09] Rion
    That's why I skip practice
    sometimes, like today.
[17:12] Rion
    I'm not earnest at all.
[17:14] Rion
    And when you and Hii-chan are fighting,
[17:18] Rion
    I like having you all to myself.
[17:21] Rion
    I'm human, just like everyone else.
[17:26] Rion
    Yu-kun, is it that weird I don't give
    up when you turn me down?
[17:30] Yu
    H-Honestly, yeah.
[17:33] Rion
    I can't help it.
[17:34] Rion
    I like you, Yu-kun.
[17:37] Rion
    My world shines brighter
    just hearing you say my name.
[17:44] Rion
    That's the fifth time.
[17:46] Rion
    I-I can't, sorry.
[17:49] Rion
    Who cares if you make
    accessories for Hii-chan?
[17:54] Rion
    If that makes other
    people happy, then great.
[17:57] Rion
    If it happens to ruin someone's love life,
    how's that your problem?
[18:03] Rion
    I wouldn't mind if you
    quit making accessories.
[18:07] Rion
    If you find something else
    you wanna do, I'd join you.
[18:10] Rion
    If that lifts your spirits,
    it'll make me happy, too.
[18:14] Rion
    Which one do you choose?
[18:16] Rion
    Me or Hii-chan?
[18:20] Yu
    If I could just quit making accessories,
[18:23] Yu
    if I could just choose
    Enomoto-san like this...
[18:25] Yu
    I'm sure that would be a happy life.
[18:29] Yu
    But it'd be a life without Himari.
[18:35] Yu
    Enomoto-san, I'm sorry.
[18:39] Rion
    That's okay.
[18:40] Rion
    I know I'm a good ten laps behind.
[18:43] Rion
    But I think I just closed the gap to seven!
[18:47] Yu
    You're so optimistic.
[18:49] Rion
    Ready?
[18:50] Rion
    Let's go.
[18:58] Yu
    Himari...
[18:59] Himari
    No outsiders allowed!
[19:02] Yu
    Outsider? Come on, I apologized.
[19:06] Himari
    But you're not making accessories, right?
[19:08] Himari
    You better show some sincerity
    if you want forgiveness.
[19:12] Yu
    Sincerity?
[19:13] Himari
    First, a monthly "Thank
    You Himari-sama Day."
[19:16] Himari
    You have to do whatever I want
    for a day every—
[19:21] Rion
    Hii-chan, don't you have
    something to tell Yu-kun?
[19:23] Himari
    Ow, ow. Okay, fine.
[19:29] Himari
    Yu, you see, I...
[19:33] Himari
    I lied about going to Tokyo.
[19:36] Himari
    I'm sorry!
[19:38] Yu
    After all this time?
[19:46] Yu
    It's fine.
[19:48] Yu
    Whether that part was true or not,
[19:50] Yu
    it doesn't change the fact that
    you're the most important to me.
[19:57] Yu
    What the—
[19:58] Yu
    What are you doing?
[20:01] Rion
    I-I'll go get a towel!
[20:05] Himari
    Even if you say you're quitting,
[20:08] Himari
    I still love watching you make accessories.
[20:12] Himari
    More than anything in the world!
[20:15] Himari
    So let me know when you wanna start again.
[20:19] Himari
    I'll be waiting here forever.
[20:22] Himari
    This taught me... that's my answer.
[20:27] Yu
    That's not why I said I wanted to quit.
[20:32] Yu
    I realized.
[20:33] Yu
    The reason why I made accessories
    all this time was to make you happy.
[20:37] Yu
    I felt so guilty towards
    the customers, I panicked.
[20:42] Yu
    I'm sorry.
[20:47] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[20:50] Himari
    Gosh, Yu! You really just
    can't get enough of me!
[20:55] Himari
    I basically have to forgive you
    when you put it like that!
[20:58] Himari
    You want that badly to make up
    with the beautiful Himari-chan?
[21:04] Yu
    Man, you're talkative.
[21:06] Himari
    Well duh!
[21:07] Himari
    Even I'm blushing over that.
[21:10] Himari
    Take this!
[21:14] Himari
    If you like me so much,
    wanna actually go out?
[21:21] Yu
    Anyone but you, Himari!
[21:22] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[21:25] Yu
    And so, the rainy season ended.
[21:28] Yu
    And my second summer break
    of high school was drawing near...
[21:37] Kureha
    No way.
[21:38] Kureha
    Shinji-kun, you're the one picking me up?
[21:41] Makishima
    My brother's busy today.
[21:42] Makishima
    I'll take your luggage.
[21:44] Kureha
    Aww, thanks.
[21:46] Makishima
    Why the sudden trip?
[21:47] Makishima
    You're not here to see Rin-chan, are you?
[21:49] Kureha
    Of course not!
[21:51] Kureha
    I came to scold that junior
    who dragged my name, that's all.
[21:56] Makishima
    Is that so?
[21:58] Makishima
    Mind if I get in on that?
[22:00] Makishima
    Kureha-san.

    'Sup, Natsume! Morning.
[01:33] Yu
    M-Morning.
[01:34] Sawamura
    Nice, is this new?
[01:36] (Flashback) Yu
    I borrowed it from my sister.
[01:38] (Flashback) Sawamura
    That's cool.
[01:40] Yu
    One minor new development...
[01:40] Sawamura
    Figures why it's girly.
[01:42] Yu
    Is it weird?
[01:42] Yu
    I made a friend besides Himari.
[01:44] Sawamura
    Nah, you pull it off.
[01:47] (Flashback) Sawamura
    By the way, where's Himari-chan?
[01:48] (Flashback) Yu
    I haven't seen her yet—
[01:49] (Flashback) Himari
    Ha! Gotcha!
[01:51] (Flashback) Yu
    H-Himari?
[01:52] (Flashback) Sawamura
    Hey, Himari-chan. Morning!
[01:54] (Flashback) Himari
    Morning!
[01:55] (Flashback) Himari
    You two besties seem to be getting along.
[01:58] Yu
    "Look at you, getting friendly
    with the side bestie."
[02:01] Yu
    "I thought I was number one,
    but I see how it is."
[02:03] Yu
    Is that it?
[02:05] (Flashback) Himari
    Hey, nice coat.
[02:07] (Flashback) Himari
    Where'd you get it?
[02:08] (Flashback) Sawamura
    It's his sister's.
[02:10] (Flashback) Himari
    Oh, no wonder it's so cute.
[02:12] Yu
    Before I knew it, we were a group of three.
[02:18] (Flashback) Himari
    Yu!
[02:19] (Flashback) Himari
    It's almost time for the Christmas exhibit!
[02:21] (Flashback) Himari
    Have you decided on the flowers?
[02:23] (Flashback) Yu
    F-For the most part.
[02:26] Yu
    My life's been fun
    ever since meeting Himari.
[02:30] Yu
    As long as she likes my work, it's worth it.
[02:34] (Flashback) Sawamura
    Hey, about Christmas...
[02:37] (Flashback) Sawamura
    Himari-chan mentioned
    having plans that day, right?
[02:40] (Flashback) Yu
    What? Really?
[02:42] (Flashback) Yu
    She said she was coming to the exhibit.
[02:46] (Flashback) Sawamura
    Natsume, I've got a huge favor to ask.
[02:49] (Flashback) Sawamura
    Could I have some time alone
    with Himari-chan on Christmas?
[02:54] Yu
    It's not like she needs
    to be at the exhibit.
[02:59] Yu
    Besides, I don't want Himari
    hating romance forever.
[03:05] Yu
    So I lied and said that the
    exhibit was canceled.
[03:08] Yu
    I hope it works out between them.
[03:10] (Flashback) Yumi
    Natsume-kun, let's grab some lunch.
SIGN    Ramen
    Kadoya
[03:14] (Flashback) Yu
    Sensei.
[03:16] (Flashback) Yu
    Say you had a friend that
    was better off with someone else.
[03:21] (Flashback) Yu
    I think true friendship
    is about letting them
[03:24] (Flashback) Yu
    spend time with that
    other person over yourself.
[03:28] (Flashback) Yu
    What do you think?
[03:31] (Flashback) Yumi
    Hmm...
[03:32] (Flashback) Yumi
    It's like with flowers.
[03:35] (Flashback) Yumi
    Sometimes, flowers grow better
    when you plant two or three seeds together.
[03:39] (Flashback) Yumi
    Instead of just one by itself.
[03:42] Yu
    Wait, is that even true?
[03:48] (Flashback) Himari
    Hey, you!
[03:50] (Flashback) Himari
    No slacking at the reception desk.
[03:53] (Flashback) Yu
    Wh-What are you doing here?
[03:55] (Flashback) Himari
    I visited your place
    and they said you were here.
[03:59] (Flashback) Yu
    Yeah... well...
[04:02] (Flashback) Yu
    Why didn't you hang out with him?
[04:04] (Flashback) Himari
    I did. Not for long, though.
[04:07] (Flashback) Himari
    I only went because he said you'd be there.
[04:11] (Flashback) Himari
    By the way, what was that all about?
[04:14] (Flashback) Himari
    He was all serious
    and confessed his love to me.
[04:17] (Flashback) Himari
    So gross. That kind of tactic is the worst.
[04:19] (Flashback) Yu
    B-But he's a good guy.
[04:22] (Flashback) Yu
    I was just hoping you two
    would be happy together.
[04:26] (Flashback) Himari
    Yu, are you serious?
[04:28] (Flashback) Himari
    That guy used you to get closer to me.
[04:31] (Flashback) Himari
    He's been trying to get with me
[04:33] (Flashback) Himari
    before you and I started hanging out.
[04:35] (Flashback) Himari
    I kept quiet hoping he genuinely
    wanted to be friends with you.
[04:46] (Flashback) Himari
    So no more cheating on me, okay?
[04:51] (Flashback) Yu
    Who's cheating?
[04:58] (Flashback) Himari
    Is this one yours?
[05:01] (Flashback) Yu
    How did you know?
[05:03] (Flashback) Himari
    Don't tell me, was I your main inspo?
[05:06] (Flashback) Yu
    Wh-Why do you ask?
[05:08] (Flashback) Himari
    The meaning of my name.
[05:09] (Flashback) Himari
    "Himari" means "sunflower."
[05:12] (Flashback) Yu
    Th-That's just a coincidence.
[05:18] Yu
    I lied.
[05:20] Yu
    I made that piece for Himari.
[05:23] Yu
    The sunflowers mean...
[05:25] Yu
    "I only see you."
[05:28] Yu
    Like Himari's friendship.
[05:30] Yu
    Straight as an arrow.
[05:33] (Flashback) Himari
    Hey, Yu.
[05:35] (Flashback) Himari
    If you care about me,
    don't go trying to set me up.
[05:40] (Flashback) Yu
    Huh?
[05:40] (Flashback) Himari
    If I end up with someone else,
    that would leave you all alone.
[05:45] (Flashback) Himari
    That's not good.
[05:46] (Flashback) Himari
    You and I are best friends.
[05:48] (Flashback) Yu
    But there's no way we'd each
    find someone at the same time.
[05:52] (Flashback) Himari
    Probably!
[05:54] (Flashback) Himari
    But we should fix
    that bad habit of yours first.
[05:57] (Flashback) Yu
    I guess I'll do my best.
[06:01] (Flashback) Himari
    Promise you'll only see me forever?
[06:06] (Flashback) Yu
    I'm your only best friend after all.
[06:09] (Flashback) Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[06:19] (Flashback) Yu
    So?
[06:20] (Flashback) Yu
    What do you think about this wreath?
[06:22] (Flashback) Himari
    Hmm... Five out of ten!
[06:25] (Flashback) Himari
    It's good, but it feels incomplete.
[06:28] (Flashback) Himari
    I wish you'd get to know me better first.
[06:33] (Flashback) Himari
    One day, when you feel complete...
[06:37] (Flashback) Himari
    Promise to show me first!
[06:43] Himari
    Ever since I was little,
[06:45] Himari
    I was always bad at making stuff.
[06:49] Himari
    Hey, look at that cutie.
[06:51] Himari
    Whatever. The world's full of
    good-looking people.
[06:56] Himari
    Even a pretty girl like me
    has worries on her mind.
[07:02] Himari
    This one needs water, too.
[07:05] Himari
    Chocolate cosmos.
[07:06] Himari
    Obviously, they smell like chocolate.
[07:09] Himari
    They bloom in the fall.
[07:11] Himari
    Yu!
[07:12] Himari
    Good morning!
[07:17] Himari
    Morning!
[07:22] Himari
    He's texting Enocchi.
[07:25] Himari
    Hey, Yu?
[07:26] Yu
    'S-Sup, Himari. Morning.
[07:29] Himari
    Hey, it's dangerous to text while you walk.
[07:32] Yu
    R-Right...
[07:34] Himari
    Look up already!
[07:35] Himari
    It's like he's glued to the screen.
[07:38] Himari
    I'm not giving up, though!
[07:40] Himari
    Have any plans for summer break?
[07:43] Yu
    Oh yeah, it starts soon.
[07:45] Himari
    Accessories are great and all,
[07:46] Himari
    but next year will be all
    about entrance exams.
[07:49] Himari
    This may be our last summer to have fun!
[07:52] Himari
    Wanna spend the night, just the two of us?
[07:55] Yu
    A-A-Are you stupid?
[07:57] Yu
    We can't do that!
[07:58] Himari
    Why not? We're best friends!
[08:01] Himari
    Nothing can come between us!
[08:02] Yu
    S-Sure, but still...
[08:04] Himari
    Or let me guess.
[08:07] Himari
    Are you actually into me like that?
[08:11] Yu
    O-Of course not.
[08:14] Himari
    Stop, Yu!
[08:15] Himari
    I'm just jokin—
[08:17] Rion
    Morning, Hii-chan.
[08:18] Himari
    Oh hey, Enocchi.
[08:20] Rion
    Let's go, Yu-kun!
[08:23] Yu
    Y-Yeah.
[08:25] Rion
    Hii-chan, I can't wait for our sleepover!
[08:32] Himari
    What's on my mind, you ask?
[08:35] Himari
    Yu's been too busy paying attention
    to Enocchi recently.
[08:39] Rion
    Yu-kun! Open wide!
[08:42] Yu
    Ahh...
[08:44] Yu
    I-I think that's enough.
[08:47] Rion
    I found somewhere away from others
    so you wouldn't get embarrassed.
[08:51] Yu
    Yeah, but still...
[08:52] Yu
    It's embarrassing enough
    without anyone watching.
[08:56] Rion
    I wouldn't complain too much, if I were you.
[08:58] Yu
    Enomoto-san, help!
SIGN    Enomoto-san, HELP
SIGN    Himari was waiting for me!
[09:00] Yu
    Himari was waiting for me.
SIGN    Please! Please text back.
[09:01] Yu
    Please! Please text back.
SIGN    Himari's talking about a sleepover.
SIGN    I can't do this anymore, she's too cute.
[09:02] Yu
    Himari's talking about a sleepover.
[09:02] Yu
    I can't do this anymore, she's too cute.
SIGN    I'm gonna lose my best friend.
SIGN    Don't leave me on read
SIGN    I'll do anything!
SIGN    Please help
[09:06] Yu
    I feel violated.
[09:10] Rion
    That drink isn't allowed when it's just us.
[09:12] Rion
    It's rude to bring
    in reminders of another girl.
[09:16] Rion
    Here.
[09:18] Yu
    Don't say it like that.
[09:20] Rion
    She's my rival at this point!
[09:23] Rion
    If you find her too cute to be her friend,
    just tell her how you feel.
[09:28] Rion
    Yu-kun, do you even want to date Hii-chan?
[09:33] Yu
    I dunno.
[09:34] Yu
    I like Himari, but opening
    my store comes before love.
[09:41] Rion
    Yup, you tend to make
    things difficult like that.
[09:47] Rion
    But I admire that.
[09:49] Rion
    It means you want both love and your dream.
[09:53] Rion
    You're so honest with yourself,
    and I love that about you.
[09:59] Rion
    Take your sweet time with Hii-chan.
[10:01] Rion
    That way, I still have a chance to catch up!
[10:03] Yu
    I wish I had that mental fortitude.
[10:10] Yu
    Everyone's busy practicing
    for the tournament.
[10:12] Himari
    Yu!
[10:14] Himari
    Let's go shopping when
    you're done watering flowers!
[10:18] Yu
    Himari's soft, supple skin!
[10:19] Yu
    Calm down, this is nothing new!
[10:22] Yu
    Shopping? What for?
[10:24] Himari
    Yup! I want a swimsuit for summer break!
[10:28] Yu
    S-Swimsuit? Are you crazy?!
[10:30] Yu
    Asking a guy you're not even dating
    to help you pick out a swim—
[10:35] Yu
    Hang on.
[10:36] Yu
    I did that last year.
[10:38] Yu
    What was I even thinking back then?
[10:41] Yu
    Then let's invite Enomoto-san.
[10:44] Himari
    Why Enocchi?
[10:46] Himari
    Never mind, that's fine.
[10:47] Himari
    You'd probably invite her anyways.
[10:49] Yu
    Th-Then I'll go find her!
[10:55] Yu
    Hey, Enomoto-san.
[10:59] Yu
    Himari's arch nemesis, Iron Claw!
[11:01] Yu
    Ouch...
[11:03] Rion
    "Himari wants to shop for swimsuits.
    Help, Enomoto-san!"
[11:08] Rion
    You're not inviting me to see
     me in a swimsuit, are you?
[11:12] Yu
    I-I'm sorry!
[11:14] Yu
    This seemed like a "Bwa-ha!" situation,
    so I recruited your support.
[11:19] Rion
    Don't go then.
[11:21] Yu
    B-But she's my best friend.
[11:26] Yu
    "All that genuine talk for what?"
[11:28] Yu
    "You're like any other guy."
[11:30] Yu
    I wanna see Himari in a swimsuit. Sue me.
[11:34] Rion
    I have band practice today,
    so you'll have to survive on your own.
[11:39] Yu
    O-Okay.
[11:41] Girl 1
    That's cute!
[11:42] Girl 2
    You're way too close!
[11:44] Himari
    Yu, what do you think?
[11:46] Yu
    I-I should go hom—
[11:47] Himari
    Come on!
[11:48] Yu
    You're choking me!
[11:50] Yu
    Pick something out yourself!
[11:52] Yu
    You're not one to care what others think.
[11:55] Himari
    Yeah, but...
[11:56] Himari
    I'm getting this to show you.
[11:58] Himari
    I wanna get something you'll like.
[12:00] Yu
    O-Oh.
[12:03] Himari
    What's this, Yu-kun?
[12:05] Himari
    Are you blushing, by chance?
[12:07] Yu
    Sh-Shut up.
[12:08] Yu
    Stop teasing me like that.
[12:09] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[12:10] Himari
    I swear, you'll fall for that forever.
[12:14] Himari
    Let's go inside!
[12:17] Yu
    Y-Yeah, let's start over there.
[12:23] Himari
    The innocent dress type?
[12:25] Himari
    Or the vibrant two-piece?
[12:28] Himari
    Look at all these florals!
[12:30] Himari
    Which one do you like?
[12:31] Yu
    Touché, Himari!
[12:32] Yu
    She knows I like cute designs
    more than raunchy ones!
[12:37] Yu
    Th-They all look fine.
[12:39] Himari
    Then lemme try them on!
[12:42] Yu
    I feel so uncomfortable...
[12:44] Himari
    Yu!
[12:46] Yu
    Y-You done?
[12:47] Himari
    Guess what?
[12:49] Himari
    I actually have a super
    raunchy piece on right now.
[12:56] Yu
    You weren't looking at anything like that!
[13:00] Himari
    Oh, but I was!
[13:02] Himari
    With tiny straps.
[13:03] Yu
    Y-You liar!
[13:04] Yu
    They don't even sell those designs out here!
[13:08] Himari
    You sure about that?
[13:10] Yu
    Th-This is where she usually goes, "Bwa-ha!"
[13:12] Yu
    But what if she's telling
    the truth? I'd die!
[13:20] Yu
    S-Sorry, gotta go!
[13:27] Yu
    I chickened out.
[13:28] Yu
    How can she pull that shit in public?
[13:33] Sakura
    Hey, idiot.
[13:35] Sakura
    You have a guest.
[13:42] Kureha
    Nice to meet you.
[13:43] Kureha
    I'm Kureha Enomoto.
[13:47] Kureha
    Shinji-kun's told me all about you, Yu-chan.
[13:50] Kureha
    I've heard you're good friends with Rion.
[13:53] Yu
    Kureha-san, you know Makishima?
[13:56] Kureha
    Yup, we're old neighbors.
[13:58] Yu
    Oh...
[13:59] Sakura
    So, Kureha.
[14:01] Sakura
    What's your visit about?
[14:03] Kureha
    Right, I totally forgot.
[14:06] Kureha
    Can I have your Himari-chan? Pretty please?
[14:14] Himari
    Scumbag womanizer. Come here.
[14:19] Himari
    Hey. Yu's been acting weird lately.
[14:23] Himari
    You got in his head again, didn't you?
[14:25] Makishima
    Natsu? Acting weird?
[14:26] Himari
    He's been avoiding me like the plague.
[14:29] Himari
    And he always makes sure Enocchi tags along.
[14:34] Makishima
    Well isn't it obvious?
[14:36] Makishima
    Natsu's finally fed up with you.
[14:38] Makishima
    He's switched over to Rin-chan.
[14:41] Himari
    Would you bet your racket on that?
[14:43] Makishima
    Wait.
[14:44] Makishima
    No roughhousing with the racket.
[14:51] Himari
    Ugh, that's totally unfair.
[14:53] Makishima
    Give me my racket.
[14:57] Makishima
    To tell you the truth,
    I haven't done anything.
[15:00] Makishima
    Or rather, I have no reason to do anything.
[15:03] Makishima
    Luckily, Kureha-san took care of that.
[15:07] Yu
    The chocolate cosmos represents...
[15:10] Yu
    "The end of love."
[15:12] Kureha
    I'm sure you've heard about this,
[15:15] Kureha
    but Himari-chan was
    supposed to join our agency.
[15:19] Kureha
    She made it sound like she was coming,
[15:21] Kureha
    then suddenly quit out of nowhere.
[15:25] Yu
    I-I'm sorry to cause you trouble.
[15:28] Kureha
    It's okay. I'm not mad.
[15:31] Kureha
    I only came up with the idea
    and convinced the CEO.
[15:34] Kureha
    And funded all expenses out of pocket.
[15:38] Kureha
    All to get kicked
    to the curb by Himari-chan.
[15:41] Kureha
    Why would I be mad?
[15:45] Kureha
    I came to talk business with you, Yu-chan.
[15:48] Yu
    Business?
[15:49] Kureha
    Can you talk to Himari-chan
    so she joins our agency?
[15:54] Yu
    But Himari and I have—
[15:56] Kureha
    I've heard.
[15:57] Kureha
    You have a dream to open your own store.
[15:59] Kureha
    But this is the middle of nowhere.
[16:02] Kureha
    Don't you think that's a bit unrealistic?
[16:05] Kureha
    I'm not asking you to give that up for free.
[16:08] Yu
    What's that for?
[16:10] Kureha
    Duh, silly!
[16:12] Kureha
    It's in exchange for Himari-chan.
[16:14] Kureha
    I'll pay you cash in advance
    for her future earnings.
[16:20] Kureha
    Oh right! And models, too.
[16:23] Kureha
    You'll need a girl to take her place.
[16:26] Kureha
    Feel free to pick anyone
    you like from our agency.
[16:29] Yu
    I've heard enough!
[16:31] Yu
    Himari isn't a thing you can buy!
[16:33] Yu
    No money or model will change my mind!
[16:37] Yu
    It's my dream to open
    a store together with Himari.
[16:39] Yu
    If I can't do it with her,
    none of it matters!
[16:45] Kureha
    Oh, I get it.
[16:47] Kureha
    She's super important to you.
[16:49] Kureha
    I totally get why. She's so cute!
[16:52] Kureha
    Honestly, it's pure talent.
[16:56] Kureha
    But isn't it a shame?
[16:58] Kureha
    She's basically squashing
    that for someone else's mediocre talent.
[17:04] Yu
    Are you saying
    I'm squashing Himari's talent?
[17:08] Kureha
    Yup!
[17:10] Kureha
    Honestly, even in middle school,
    your pieces were pretty amateur.
[17:17] Kureha
    And your work now
    is hardly more than ordinary.
[17:24] Kureha
    You're crushing your best friend's
    talent for selfish reasons.
[17:28] Kureha
    Would you call that true friendship?
[17:31] Kureha
    Oh, wait!
[17:33] Kureha
    You're not business partners.
[17:36] Kureha
    You just can't let Himari-chan go
    because you like her.
[17:39] Yu
    Th-That's not true.
[17:41] Kureha
    So what's your choice?
[17:43] Kureha
    If you can devote your life to loving her,
[17:46] Kureha
    I'll let you come to Tokyo with us.
[17:49] Kureha
    But you'll have to give up your dream.
[17:56] Yu
    I don't think she's right.
[17:59] Yu
    But... could this be Himari's big break?
[18:03] Kureha
    See, you can't commit either way.
[18:06] Kureha
    You two just wanna have fun.
[18:09] Kureha
    Neither of you are serious
    about your dreams.
[18:13] Hibari
    Stop right there!
[18:14] Hibari
    I won't let you lay a finger on Yu-kun!
[18:17] Kureha
    Hibari-kun.
[18:19] Sakura
    Oops, I forgot to lock the door.
[18:22] Yu
    Hibari-san, how did you know?
[18:24] Hibari
    Himari called, so I rushed over.
[18:28] Hibari
    Kureha-kun, I see you've been toying
    with my dear Yu-kun.
[18:34] Kureha
    I would never! I was just talking business.
[18:39] Hibari
    Business would involve merit
    for both parties.
[18:43] Hibari
    I see you haven't changed one bit.
[18:44] Yu
    Saku-nee-san, are those two...
[18:45] Hibari
    True business is about
    achieving mutual benefits.
[18:47] Sakura
    Can't you tell? They're exes.
[18:51] Hibari
    I won't allow Himari and Yu-kun's
    friendship to suffer a single blow.
[18:58] Kureha
    There's that tough guy front again.
[19:01] Kureha
    Here.
[19:06] Yu
    Hibari-san?!
[19:08] Kureha
    Stay out of it unless you want this
    video plastered all over the internet.
[19:12] Hibari
    Please, don't! Kureha-kun!
[19:15] Hibari
    That has nothing to do with this!
[19:16] Kureha
    You have nothing to do with this.
[19:23] Kureha
    Remember how you swore off real women?
[19:27] Kureha
    You can't touch my phone
    as long as it's tucked in here.
[19:30] Hibari
    Why you—!
[19:31] Hibari
    Then... take this!
[19:35] Kureha
    So scary!
[19:38] Kureha
    Sakura-chan, here!
[19:40] Sakura
    Don't drag me into this.
[19:47] Hibari
    You can't blackmail me anymo—
[19:49] Kureha
    I have twenty backups
    for work, just in case!
[19:52] Hibari
    You tricked me!
[19:54] Yu
    I've never seen this side of Hibari-san...
[19:57] Sakura
    He's always been like this.
[19:59] Sakura
    Why don't you two get back together already?
[20:02] Hibari/Kureha
    No way!
[20:04] Sakura
    We're getting nowhere
    with you two doing the talking.
[20:09] Sakura
    Kureha, you may think
    you're doing the right thing,
[20:12] Sakura
    but you can't push your ideals onto others.
[20:17] Sakura
    I get why you see yourself in Himari-chan.
[20:21] Sakura
    But you hated being told what
    to do more than anyone.
[20:27] Kureha
    I knew I shouldn't have
    asked Sakura-chan for help.
[20:30] Kureha
    You're always the voice of reason.
[20:34] Kureha
    I've changed my mind!
[20:36] Kureha
    Yu-chan, let's go head to head.
[20:38] Yu
    Head to head?
[20:39] Kureha
    Take the summer to make
    your best masterpiece.
[20:44] Kureha
    Prove me wrong with
    the quality of your work.
[20:48] Kureha
    You should be thanking me
    for even considering this option.
[20:53] Hibari
    What do you mean?
[20:54] Kureha
    Like I said, I've been paying
    for Himari-chan out of pocket.
[20:58] Kureha
    I don't know any high schooler
    who'd be able to pay this off.
[21:03] Sakura
    Kureha, you mean
    if my idiot brother said no,
[21:07] Sakura
    you were planning to blackmail
    Himari-chan with debt?
[21:09] Kureha
    You're so smart, Sakura-chan! Yup!
[21:13] Kureha
    The only person who can help Himari-chan
    is her best friend Yu-chan.
[21:17] Kureha
    Are you in?
[21:27] Yu
    If I win, will you wipe her slate clean?
[21:31] Kureha
    Sure!
[21:32] Kureha
    If I lose, I'll give up
    Himari-chan and the money.
[21:36] Kureha
    But if I win, hand her over to me.
[21:41] Yu
    Alright.
[21:43] Kureha
    The theme is "memories of summer."
[21:45] Kureha
    You have until the Obon festival in August.
[21:48] Kureha
    I'll be back then!
[21:55] Yu
    Are my accessories really
    worth Himari's devotion?
[22:00] Yu
    It was time to put that to the test.

    Memories of summer...
[01:37] Himari
    What?! Go head-to-head?
[01:40] (Flashback) Himari
    Sounds like this only got out of hand
    because of Onii-chan!
[01:44] (Flashback) Hibari
    I won't deny that.
[01:47] (Flashback) Himari
    There's no way Yu can win
    if he's getting judged by Kureha-san!
[01:50] (Flashback) Himari
    I'll just decline her offer,
    and you can pay off my debt!
[01:56] (Flashback) Hibari
    We're only in this mess because
    you lied about going to Tokyo.
[02:00] (Flashback) Hibari
    You're liable for this!
[02:02] (Flashback) Hibari
    The Inuzuka Family won't get involved!
[02:04] (Flashback) Himari
    Come on! Have a heart!
[02:07] (Flashback) Rion
    I still can't believe she
    wants Yu-kun to pay this off.
[02:11] (Flashback) Rion
    She's rotten to the core.
[02:14] (Flashback) Rion
    Next time she's home, I'll take her to Mom
    if I have to drag her myself.
[02:18] (Flashback) Sakura
    Kureha will resort to anything
    if it means meeting her goal.
[02:23] (Flashback) Sakura
    She channeled all her negative energy
    into getting to the top, after all.
[02:27] (Flashback) Yu
    Negative energy?
[02:29] (Flashback) Sakura
    Like when people make fun of her.
[02:31] (Flashback) Sakura
    It just fuels her fire.
[02:33] (Flashback) Sakura
    She's the opposite of you.
[02:34] (Flashback) Yu
    Y-Yeah.
[02:36] (Flashback) Sakura
    You work hard for people who support you.
[02:39] (Flashback) Sakura
    To her, you guys aren't passionate enough.
[02:43] (Flashback) Sakura
    Not that there's a right or wrong.
[02:46] (Flashback) Himari
    Then what if I ran away?
[02:48] (Flashback) Sakura
    Knowing Kureha, she'll stick to the rules.
[02:51] (Flashback) Sakura
    But I imagine she'll at least
    open her own store next to yours.
[02:54] (Flashback) Sakura
    Then invest a bunch of money
    to put you out of business.
[02:59] (Flashback) Yu
    That's not even funny.
[03:03] (Flashback) Hibari
    Yu-kun, no need to worry.
[03:06] (Flashback) Hibari
    If you lose, feel free to hand Himari over.
[03:08] (Flashback) Hibari
    That way, you can open your store with me!
[03:11] (Flashback) Yu
    Thanks, I'll make sure not to lose then!
[03:15] (Flashback) Hibari
    Anyways, just do your best as usual.
[03:19] (Flashback) Hibari
    Remember, I'm here because I fell
    for your accessories.
[03:24] (Flashback) Yu
    Y-Yeah.
[03:25] (Flashback) Yu
    Either way, I have to win
    for Himari to stay.
[03:30] Yu
    That's right. I have no time to waste.
[03:33] Yu
    I've been spoiled by the people
    around me for too long.
[03:37] Yu
    My work has to attract
    people who don't know me.
[03:40] Yu
    Like Saku-nee-san said,
    I can't stay frozen in time!
[03:47] Himari
    There he is. Yu!
[03:52] Himari
    Come on, let's go look for summer memories!
[03:56] Yu
    That sounded so cheesy.
    Even I feel embarrassed.
[04:00] Himari
    Well it's summer break.
[04:02] Himari
    This is the cheesiest time of our lives!
[04:05] Yu
    Don't forget, you're
    the one who's on the line here.
[04:10] Himari
    It's fine, I know you'll win!
[04:12] Himari
    And I have a backup plan just in case.
[04:14] Yu
    Backup plan?
[04:17] Himari
    I'll join their agency then quit right away!
[04:19] Yu
    You know, that's how you
    always set people off.
[04:23] Yu
    Besides, that means you'd
    have to drop out of school.
[04:26] Himari
    Like that's a problem?
[04:27] Himari
    You'd take care of me for life, right?
[04:29] Yu
    D-Don't phrase it like that!
    It's misleading.
[04:33] Yu
    We'll be co-owners. Okay?
[04:35] Himari
    Phrase it like what?
[04:38] Yu
    Well, I mean... it sounds like...
[04:40] Yu
    Marriage, you know?
[04:42] Himari
    Huh?
[04:46] Himari
    When have I ever said
    that I don't mean it like that?
[04:52] Himari
    You promised to only have eyes
    for me, remember?
[04:57] Yu
    Himari, I promise
    to win against Kureha-san—
[05:04] Himari
    Bwa-ha!
[05:06] Himari
    It's been a while since I got you!
[05:07] Yu
    Himari!
[05:11] Himari
    You've been kinda cold recently.
[05:14] Himari
    Make me "Bwa-ha!" some more.
[05:16] Yu
    What kind of a request is that?
[05:18] Rion
    Yu-kun, Hii-chan.
[05:21] Himari
    Hey, Enocchi!
[05:23] Himari
    I was just saying how Yu's been cold.
[05:25] Himari
    Comfort me!
[05:26] Rion
    I bet you probably said something rude.
[05:30] Yu
    Man, her distrust in Himari is palpable.
[05:34] Rion
    Yu-kun, let's go look for summer memories.
[05:38] Background chatter A
    See ya!
[05:39] Background chatter B
    Take care!
[05:47] Hibari
    Maybe you should be more
    mindful of what you eat.
[05:50] Hibari
    It could affect your performance.
[05:54] Makishima
    Is that supposed to be advice?
[05:56] Makishima
    Everyone has their own pace.
[05:58] Makishima
    I'm only working at the best pace for me.
[06:01] Hibari
    That's certainly impressive.
[06:04] Hibari
    Speaking of which, looks like
    Kureha-kun got you off your game.
[06:08] Hibari
    Let me guess. You offered
    to help and she declined?
[06:14] Makishima
    Nice theory.
[06:15] Makishima
    But I'd say you're the one getting played.
[06:20] Makishima
    Let's see... She tried
    to blackmail you with a video?
[06:23] Hibari
    I'd prefer to think of it as
    providing her with entertainment.
[06:27] Makishima
    You came all the way here
    to keep me in check,
[06:30] Makishima
    but I'm afraid it won't work on me.
[06:33] Makishima
    I support Natsu and his work.
[06:36] Makishima
    But not as much as I support Rin-chan.
[06:39] Hibari
    Keep you in check? Of course not.
[06:41] Hibari
    As long as Yu-kun can
    pour his all into his work,
[06:45] Hibari
    that's all that matters.
[06:48] Hibari
    You focus on tennis, and don't
    worry about anything else.
[06:55] Himari
    So?
[06:56] Himari
    Did you come up with any summer memories?
[07:00] Yu
    Nope.
[07:01] Yu
    It's such a common theme.
[07:03] Yu
    And way too broad.
[07:04] Yu
    Not to mention, I can't get
    on the same page with this "client."
[07:08] Himari
    Try starting with scenery then!
[07:11] Himari
    Why not take a bunch of pictures
[07:13] Himari
    then try to match that with a flower later?
[07:16] Yu
    So the opposite of when
    Enomoto-san first modeled for us?
[07:19] Yu
    I'm not very good at that, though.
[07:22] Himari
    How about Enocchi
    and I come up with some ideas?
[07:26] Rion
    Hii-chan, you can only come up
    with raunchy stuff.
[07:29] Himari
    No way!
[07:31] Himari
    I'm a high school girl, you know!
[07:33] Rion
    You don't usually act like it.
[07:36] Rion
    Do you have any ideas?
[07:45] Himari
    It's dusk.
[07:47] Himari
    I'm a guy walking home after club practice.
[07:50] Himari
    Together with my childhood friend.
[07:54] Yu
    Oh, you're storytelling?
[07:57] Himari
    Suddenly, rain starts falling.
[08:00] Himari
    We find shelter, but we're soaking wet.
[08:03] Himari
    I look at her sheer—
[08:05] Yu
    Sheer?
[08:07] Himari
    Her sheer shirt and pink bra!
[08:10] Himari
    I couldn't help myself but—
[08:11] Yu
    Scratch that idea.
[08:13] Yu
    No raunchy stuff allowed!
[08:14] Rion
    I don't wanna be Hii-chan's
    number one, after all.
[08:18] Himari
    Don't be so rude.
[08:19] Himari
    What about you then, Enocchi?
[08:21] Himari
    You've always liked girly manga.
[08:23] Himari
    I'm sure you have a scenario in mind!
[08:26] Rion
    Well... I'm not picky or anything.
[08:31] Rion
    Anywhere's fine if it's with Yu-kun.
[08:33] Yu
    No one's talking
    about their ideal first time!
[08:37] Himari
    Enocchi, you dirty girl!
[08:38] Yu
    Himari, no teasing!
[08:41] Himari
    But we're talking about her first time.
[08:42] Rion
    I'm good anywhere.
[08:44] Himari
    W-Well so am I.
[08:45] Yu
    I guess we'll start with obvious ideas.
[08:46] Rion
    Then we're both good.
[09:03] Himari
    Take this, Enocchi!
[09:05] Rion
    Hii-chan, that was cold!
[09:12] Yu
    They look the part.
[09:13] Himari
    How was that?
[09:14] Yu
    I got a few good shots.
[09:17] Rion
    Did you have to splash me that much?
[09:20] Himari
    My bad.
[09:21] Himari
    You can stop by my place
    and I'll take it out for cleaning.
[09:25] Rion
    But your clothes won't fit me.
[09:28] Himari
    Are you dissing the size of my boobs?
[09:30] Himari
    Well played, Enocchi.
[09:32] Rion
    Well it's the truth.
[09:34] Himari
    Why I oughta!
[09:35] Rion
    Wanna piece of me?
[09:39] Himari
    I sure do!
[09:41] Rion
    Wait, don't Hii-chan!
[09:43] Yu
    Ah, to be young and wild.
[09:54] Himari
    It's cute, don't you think?
[09:57] Rion
    Yeah, I like it.
[09:59] Yu
    I mean, it definitely feels like summer.
[10:03] Yu
    But it's almost like an ad.
[10:05] Yu
    Not that it's bad, but I'm not
    sure it goes with the theme.
[10:11] Himari
    How much time do we have left? Three weeks?
[10:14] Yu
    Yeah.
[10:16] Yu
    This is a lot harder than I thought.
[10:18] Yu
    It's like I'm thinking too hard about it.
[10:21] Boy A
    Hey, come on! Not fair!
[10:24] Boy B
    Take that!
[10:28] Himari
    Something wrong?
[10:30] Yu
    Nothing.
[10:31] Yu
    Hey, there's somewhere I wanna visit.
[10:41] Rion
    This is it?
[10:43] Yu
    It's a flower arranging
    school I used to go to.
[10:46] Yu
    It's been a while since my last visit.
[10:51] Yumi
    Take this! Special dive attack!
[10:53] Girl A
    No fair, Sensei!
[10:54] Rion
    She's the teacher?
[10:55] Boy B
    Grow up!
[10:55] Yu
    That's her.
[10:57] Yumi
    Oh, hi there.
[11:01] Yu
    I see you still like gaming.
[11:04] Yumi
    I do!
[11:05] Yumi
    I've been hooked since
    I started back when you were here.
[11:11] Yumi
    What can I help you with today?
[11:14] Yu
    I was hoping you could
    show me other people's work.
[11:20] Yumi
    Wow, Natsume-kun.
[11:21] Yumi
    That's a surprising request coming from you.
[11:23] Yu
    It's a long story.
[11:27] Himari
    Hey! Look!
[11:29] Rion
    Is this Hii-chan?
[11:30] Himari
    Yup. I used to come here for a bit, too.
[11:33] Rion
    Your work is meh,
    but you were cute back then.
[11:38] Himari
    You say that like I'm not cute now.
[11:40] Yumi
    You're not growing your hair out anymore?
[11:44] Yumi
    It's a shame, it's so pretty.
[11:46] Yumi
    But can't be helped if Natsume-kun
    likes Inuzuka-chan's hair short.
[11:51] Himari
    Yu, is that true?
[11:53] Yu
    I-I meant it generally.
[11:55] Yu
    I think the general consensus is
    that you look good with short hair.
[11:58] Himari
    But that's subjective!
[12:01] Himari
    So basically, you totally love me.
[12:03] Himari
    You're head-over-heels
    in love with me, right?
[12:05] Rion
    I'll go short.
[12:06] Yu
    No, it's fine!
[12:07] Yu
    You have pretty hair!
[12:09] Yu
    I think your hair looks great!
[12:12] Yumi
    Since you're all here, wanna
    make some flower arrangements?
[12:16] Yu
    You wouldn't mind?
[12:19] Yumi
    I'm sure you'll get more inspired
    working with your own hands.
[12:22] Yumi
    Wanna give it a shot, Enomoto-chan?
[12:24] Rion
    Yes, I'd love to.
[12:26] Yu
    What about you?
[12:27] Himari
    Oh, um... I'll just watch!
[12:36] Himari
    Ever since I was little,
    I've sucked at making stuff.
[12:41] Himari
    Generally, I'm good at everything.
[12:44] Himari
    As long as I know all the right steps,
[12:46] Himari
    I'm pretty good at following
    instructions. But...
[12:51] Himari
    I'm not good at making things creatively.
[12:54] Himari
    Art, cooking, flower arrangements...
[12:57] Rion
    Yu-kun, this is pretty hard.
[13:01] Himari
    Man, it's like a pork katsu bowl.
[13:04] Himari
    See, it's hard to make
    things off the script.
[13:08] Himari
    If Enocchi was good on her first try,
[13:11] Himari
    how sad would I look?
[13:13] Yu
    Oh, then try this.
[13:15] Yu
    Think of one side while
    you're getting the hang of it.
[13:18] Yu
    Don't worry about the back,
    and use fewer flowers.
[13:22] Rion
    Okay. Let me try.
[13:29] Himari
    That's beautiful.
[13:31] Rion
    What do you think?
[13:33] Yu
    Looks great. Much better than the first try.
[13:41] Yumi
    It's a shame, it's so pretty.
[13:44] Himari
    Back in middle school,
[13:46] Himari
    I once jumped onto Yu while he was working,
[13:48] Himari
    and accidentally burned my hair.
[13:50] Himari
    I felt so bad seeing Yu apologize.
[13:54] Himari
    I cut it all off when
    we entered high school.
[13:57] (Flashback) Yu
    No, it's fine!
[13:59] (Flashback) Yu
    You have pretty hair!
[14:00] (Flashback) Yu
    I think your hair looks great!
[14:02] Himari
    Hey, Yu?
[14:03] Himari
    What if I had long hair, too?
[14:06] Himari
    What if I were feminine
    and girly, like Enocchi?
[14:10] Himari
    Would you have eyes only for me?
[14:20] Yumi
    That girl, Enomoto-chan.
[14:21] Yumi
    She's the hibiscus girl, isn't she?
[14:23] Himari
    Sensei, you can tell?
[14:29] Yumi
    She likes Natsume-kun too, huh?
[14:31] Himari
    Yup, she's committed.
    She's liked him for seven years.
[14:36] Yumi
    How about Natsume-kun?
[14:37] Himari
    He says he doesn't, but I know he likes her.
[14:42] Yumi
    That's youth for ya!
[14:43] Yumi
    Keep your cool, Inuzuka-chan.
[14:46] Himari
    What do you mean? I'm always cool.
[14:49] Yumi
    Are you?
[14:50] Yumi
    You suddenly went from
    having zero romantic feelings
[14:53] Yumi
    to becoming cling—I mean,
    a girl with a crush!
[14:57] Himari
    N-No, I'm not!
[14:59] Yu
    Himari, for the battle with Kureha-san,
[15:02] Yu
    I think I'll do a piece on sunflowers.
[15:07] Himari
    It's the one from your
    exhibit in middle school.
[15:10] Himari
    The sunflower wreath Yu made me.
[15:15] Yu
    It can stand its own against Kureha-san.
[15:17] Yu
    It'd be perfect.
[15:20] Himari
    I think that's a great idea!
[15:22] Yu
    Enomoto-san actually picked this out.
[15:27] Himari
    Oh, cool.
[15:28] Yumi
    I know where you can find sunflowers!
SIGN    Sunflower Festival
[15:37] Himari
    Sucks Enocchi couldn't come.
[15:40] Yu
    It can't be helped,
    she has to help out at the store.
[15:44] Himari
    Why are you sitting behind me?
[15:46] Himari
    Let's sit together.
[15:47] Yu
    Oh, um...
[15:48] Yu
    Oh yeah, I have to eat breakfast.
[15:51] Yu
    I forgot my drink.
[15:53] Himari
    Here.
[15:54] Yu
    For real? Nice, thanks!
[16:00] Himari
    Are you thinking about Enocchi?
[16:04] Himari
    Is that why you've been
    avoiding me recently?
[16:07] Himari
    'Cause you don't want Enocchi
    to take it wrong?
[16:10] Yu
    That's not why at all.
[16:12] Himari
    Then why is it?
[16:14] Yu
    Why...?
[16:16] Yu
    It's actually because I'm
    starting to see you as a girl,
[16:18] Yu
    and you're making my heart
    beat so fast I could die.
[16:21] Yu
    Like I could say that!
[16:24] Yu
    I'm not avoiding you.
[16:26] Yu
    And Enomoto-san has nothing to do with it.
[16:33] Himari
    Bwa-ha! That's some good tea.
[16:36] Yu
    Seriously? What was that for?
[16:40] Himari
    I figured I'd test your love for Enocchi.
[16:43] Yu
    That doesn't make any sense.
[16:46] Himari
    I'll go buy you some tea
    from the vending machine.
[16:49] Yu
    That's fine, I'll go myself.
[16:51] Himari
    Watch my stuff for me.
[16:55] Yu
    I have no clue what my best friend's
    thinking and it's driving me nuts.
[17:02] Himari
    I can't believe how much guys change
    when they fall in love.
[17:07] Himari
    Someone once told me that girls
    and guys can't stay friends
[17:10] Himari
    when one of them falls in love
    with someone else.
[17:15] Himari
    Can't be helped.
[17:17] Himari
    Enocchi's cuter than me.
[17:19] Himari
    I know I'm super pretty too, but...
[17:22] (Flashback) Makishima
    Let me be very clear.
[17:24] (Flashback) Makishima
    If you really wanted Natsu for yourself,
    you should have taken him to Tokyo.
[17:29] (Flashback) Makishima
    Natsu was prepared to leave
    everything for you and you weren't.
[17:36] (Flashback) Makishima
    You decided not to take him
    while you had the chance.
[17:39] Himari
    I thought he was out of his mind back then.
[17:43] Himari
    But I get it now.
[17:45] Himari
    The nicer Yu treats me, the greedier I get.
[17:51] Himari
    I can't ignore that she's
    much better for him than I am.
SIGN    Sunflower Festival
[18:09] Yu
    Wow! It's a giant field of sunflowers!
[18:14] Himari
    Yu, keep your cool.
[18:16] Himari
    We gotta pick them before we check out.
[18:19] Himari
    Let's find the best ones
    before someone takes them!
[18:22] Yu
    Yeah.
[18:26] Yu
    The sunflower has two meanings:
    sweetness and vitality of life.
[18:31] Yu
    Araki-sensei always said balance
    is the key to picking flowers.
[18:39] Yu
    This one's leaves are too
    crooked. It feels insincere.
[18:43] Yu
    The flower is too big on this one.
[18:46] Yu
    This one's perfect.
[18:49] Yu
    I want Himari to wear my
    piece created with this flower.
[18:53] Yu
    If I'm gonna make something better
    than my wreath in middle school,
[18:57] Yu
    it's gotta be this one.
[18:58] Himari
    Find one?
[19:00] Yu
    Yeah, I like this one.
[19:02] Yu
    I'll still look for more, though.
[19:13] Himari
    Yu, guess what?
[19:21] Himari
    There he goes again.
    Only thinking about flowers.
[19:24] Himari
    Once he's in the zone,
    he can't hear anything else.
[19:30] Himari
    Sunflowers are so pretty, right Yu?
[19:37] Himari
    We should come with Enocchi next year.
[19:44] Himari
    I can't believe I'm jealous of flowers.
[19:49] Himari
    But still...
[19:51] Himari
    Yu, I love you.
[19:54] Himari
    Stop looking at flowers.
[19:55] Himari
    Have eyes only for me.
[20:08] Yu
    H-Himari.
[20:19] Himari
    Yu, did you just hear that?
[20:23] Yu
    Did you try to "Bwa-ha!" me just now?
[20:27] Yu
    Stop that, will ya?
[20:29] Yu
    This is serious! We have to
    look for a sunflower.
[20:33] Yu
    It's not the right time to mess around.
[20:38] Himari
    Are you serious?
[20:39] Himari
    This can't be real.
[20:42] Yu
    Hey, Himari!
[20:45] Himari
    Is this how it's meant to be?
[20:46] Himari
    Even when I'm being honest,
[20:48] Himari
    my feelings can't reach him?
[20:52] Yu
    Wait up! Himari!
[20:54] Himari
    Then what am I working so hard for?
[20:57] Himari
    What meaning does my life have?
[21:01] Himari
    I hate it all.
[21:03] Himari
    I hate myself for being this way.
[21:05] Himari
    I hate Yu for not liking me back.
[21:08] Yu
    Himari! Where are you?
[21:12] Himari
    Right here.
[21:15] Himari
    There's no way he can hear me
    whispering like that.
[21:19] Himari
    Even if the world ended
    and we were the only ones left.
[21:23] Himari
    My voice or feelings won't ever reach him.
[21:31] Yu
    Himari. There you are!
[21:35] Yu
    What's up with you?
[21:37] Yu
    You've been acting weird all day.
[21:42] Himari
    I don't need this friendship ring anymore.
[21:45] Yu
    Wh-What are you...?
[21:47] Himari
    What am I doing, you ask?

[00:02] Yu
    Man, today was crazy.
[00:06] Yu
    Feels like I lived a full week in one day.
[00:17] Yu
    What? Why? How?
[00:19] Yu
    What possessed Himari to do that?!
[00:23] Yu
    It was so out of left field,
[00:24] Yu
    my emotions can hardly keep up!
[00:28] Yu
    Times like these call for flowers.
[00:32] Yu
    You think Himari kissed me
    cause she likes me like that?
[00:36] Yu
    How the hell am I supposed to
    act around Hima—
[00:39] Makishima
    Hey Natsu.
[00:41] Makishima
    Having fun talking
    to flowers all by yourself?
SIGN    Can a Boy-Girl Friendship Survive?
SIGN    (No, It Can't!!)
[02:16] Yu
    I know you're plotting
    behind my back with Kureha-san.
SIGN    Goodbye, Sunflower
[02:19] Makishima
    Huh? Nope, I don't know anything about that.
[02:22] Makishima
    I'm not involved this time.
[02:25] Yu
    You're not?
[02:26] Makishima
    Well, I tried.
[02:27] Makishima
    But she used me for info
    and tossed me aside.
[02:30] Makishima
    I guess she prefers to work alone.
[02:34] Yu
    Then why didn't you
    convince her to let Hima—
[02:37] Makishima
    I can't do that!
[02:41] Yu
    You still want Himari to go to Tokyo, huh?
[02:46] Makishima
    Not exactly.
[02:48] Yu
    Huh?
[02:49] Makishima
    I'd never turn my back on Kureha-san.
[02:52] Makishima
    Because I love her.
[02:55] Makishima
    Got a problem with that?
[02:57] Makishima
    I can fall in love too, you know!
[02:59] Makishima
    N-Never mind that!
[03:01] Makishima
    What about you?
[03:03] Yu
    N-Nothing much.
[03:04] Makishima
    Come on!
[03:05] Makishima
    After everything I just told you?
[03:08] Makishima
    What's this about smooching Himari-chan?
[03:12] Yu
    I-I-I don't remember telling you that!
[03:15] Makishima
    Technically, you didn't.
[03:17] Makishima
    I'd be more careful talking to flowers.
[03:20] Makishima
    So? Did you confess?
[03:23] Yu
    No... We went to the Sunflower Festival.
[03:26] Yu
    She kept mentioning Enomoto-san,
    when she suddenly...
[03:30] Makishima
    So that's how.
[03:33] Makishima
    This is perfect!
[03:34] Makishima
    I figured I had no role to play this time,
    but this changes everything!
[03:40] Yu
    You seem to be having lots of fun.
[03:43] Makishima
    Either way, I doubt you
    can act like friends now.
[03:48] Yu
    I-I guess not.
[03:51] Makishima
    Then I suggest you focus
    on the task at hand.
[03:58] Makishima
    See ya.
[04:01] Yu
    Makishima's right.
[04:03] Yu
    If I lose this battle,
    I'd have to give up Himari.
[04:06] Yu
    There's only one thing I can do now.
[04:09] Yu
    Focus on making my masterpiece, like always!
[04:14] Himari
    Look at all these delicious
    dumplings I made for everyone.
[04:18] Himari
    Lemme dive in first on this
    springy sandwich of goodness.
[04:23] Himari
    Here I go!
[04:24] Himari
    Yum, yum.
[04:27] Himari
    Yum, yum, yum.
[04:31] Himari
    Yummy, yummy.
[04:35] Himari
    Yummy, yummy, yum, yum, yum...
[04:58] Himari
    Did that happen?
[04:59] Himari
    What have I done?
[05:01] Himari
    Oh my gosh!
[05:02] Himari
    It's not a dream?
[05:03] Himari
    Please, let it be a dream!
[05:04] Himari
    Why did I do that?!
[05:08] Himari
    How can I even message him?
[05:10] Himari
    What do I even say?
[05:13] Himari
    "Which is more springy?"
[05:15] Himari
    "Dumplings or my lips?"
[05:16] Himari
    Shut up, you idiot!
[05:18] Himari
    What kind of high school girl says that?!
[05:23] Himari
    He hates me. I know it.
[05:25] Hibari
    Himari? Can I come in?
[05:27] Himari
    It's Onii-chan!
[05:28] Himari
    I can't let him find out!
[05:31] Hibari
    Going somewhere?
[05:36] Hibari
    I see.
[05:37] Hibari
    You were annoyed by his
    wishy-washy attitude,
[05:40] Hibari
    so you kissed him on impulse.
[05:45] Hibari
    Oh well. What's done is done.
[05:50] Hibari
    You thought I would scold you?
[05:53] Hibari
    You deserve praise
    for being true to your feelings.
[05:58] Hibari
    Besides, if you get dumped,
    I can swoop in to save the day!
[06:02] Hibari
    So no worries!
[06:05] Himari
    I totally forgot. He lives for this stuff.
[06:08] Hibari
    Well, time for me to eat dinner.
[06:13] Hibari
    I noticed the smell of delicious dumplings.
[06:16] Himari
    R-Right, Onii-chan...
[06:19] Himari
    About the dumplings...
[06:24] Hibari
    The hell is this?!
[06:25] Hibari
    There isn't a single one left!
[06:29] Himari
    I'm sorry!
SIGN    Science Room
[06:32] Yu
    I can't tell.
[06:34] Yu
    They might be done. They might not.
[06:39] Yu
    Ever since yesterday,
    I keep thinking of Himari.
[06:41] Yu
    I can't focus.
[06:44] Rion
    Yu-kun, what's up?
[06:46] Yu
    Enomoto-san! Don't you have practice?
[06:48] Rion
    I decided to come by for lunch.
[06:51] Yu
    It's lunch time already?
[06:54] Rion
    Were you about to take these out?
[06:57] Yu
    I'm not sure yet.
[06:58] Yu
    Even if it looks done on the surface,
[07:00] Yu
    it might still have
    coloring left in the center.
[07:03] Yu
    If it's not done all the way,
[07:04] Yu
    it could cause problems later on.
[07:06] Rion
    Oh, are these the ones
    you got with Hii-chan?
[07:09] Yu
    Y-Yup.
[07:11] Rion
    You picked them out while you kissed?
[07:14] Yu
    Actually, we picked them out
    and then we kiss—
[07:22] Yu
    Makishima told you, huh?
[07:25] Rion
    Yup. Darn. I wish I went.
[07:29] Rion
    I wouldn't have let Hii-chan get ahead.
[07:31] Yu
    I'm not sure how to respond to that.
[07:35] Yu
    Listen, Enomoto-san.
[07:37] Yu
    I think I need to tell Himari how I feel.
[07:42] Rion
    Good for you.
[07:43] Yu
    You think so?
[07:45] Rion
    To me, it makes no difference
    whether you two go out.
[07:49] Rion
    Even if you were dating from the start,
[07:50] Rion
    I would have told you how I felt.
[07:52] Yu
    Oh yeah, that's how she is.
[07:56] Rion
    I'm gonna be Hii-chan's number one friend.
[07:59] Rion
    Maybe one day, she'll agree
    to share you with me.
[08:04] Rion
    That's my end goal!
[08:06] Rion
    I'll get back to practice.
[08:10] Yu
    See ya later.
[08:19] Himari
    H-Hey, um... I...
[08:23] Rion
    Punishment!
[08:29] Yu
    Himari! You okay?!
[08:31] Himari
    She was for real that time!
[08:32] Himari
    I was about to die!
[08:41] Yu
    L-Look, Himari.
[08:44] Yu
    I'm not gonna pretend like
    yesterday didn't happen.
[08:49] Yu
    So... um...
[08:52] Yu
    There's something I need to tell you
    after I beat Kureha-san!
[08:55] Himari
    Sure.
[08:56] Yu
    Okay, now what?
[08:58] Yu
    I didn't think about how to act
    after saying that!
[09:01] Yu
    I need a diversion!
[09:04] Yu
    I think it's about the right time...
[09:07] Yu
    Oh well, here goes nothing!
[09:12] Himari
    What do you plan to make with these?
[09:15] Yu
    A sunflower tiara.
[09:18] Himari
    That sounds amazing!
[09:22] Yu
    Her smile was even cuter than that time...
    before my middle school exhibit.
[09:31] Yu
    You're gonna be gone for the Obon holidays?
[09:33] Himari
    Yup.
[09:34] Himari
    We're going on a family trip
    while my dad's back home.
[09:39] Yu
    Oh... How about you, Enomoto-san?
[09:42] Rion
    I have to help out at the store.
[09:43] Rion
    Our cakes sell out during Obon.
[09:46] Yu
    It's the busy season, then.
[09:49] Yu
    I can't work at home
    with my older sisters visiting.
[09:53] Yu
    But school's closed during break.
[09:55] Yu
    I gotta figure out a workspace.
[09:57] Himari
    Why don't you use our place then?
[09:59] Himari
    I'll let Onii-chan know.
[10:00] Yu
    For real? Thanks!
[10:47] Yu
    Three more days until the match.
[10:50] Hibari
    Wow, Yu-kun.
[10:52] Hibari
    You worked so hard.
[10:55] Hibari
    Your tiara's great.
[10:59] Hibari
    Kureha-kun won't stand a chance.
[11:02] Yu
    Thank you.
[11:03] Hibari
    Finally, you'll get to
    be my little brother for real.
[11:06] Hibari
    Let's say cheers
    with the tiara to celebrate!
[11:11] Yu
    I showed you yesterday too, though.
[11:14] Hibari
    It's so good, I can't get enough!
[11:23] Hibari
    Yu-kun, what happened?
[11:26] Yu
    What's going on?
[11:28] Yu
    How did this happen?
[11:30] Yu
    The flowers are dying
    from losing their inner moisture.
[11:36] Yu
    Did I mess up the timing back then?
[11:41] Hibari
    Can this be fixed somehow?
[11:45] Yu
    No, not at this point.
[11:48] Yu
    I can tidy up how it looks
    but not the quality.
[11:51] Hibari
    Any spares?
[11:52] Yu
    I was so focused on making just one.
[11:55] Yu
    I used them all up in trial runs.
[11:59] Hibari
    Yu-kun, I'll grab the car.
[12:01] Hibari
    Let's go look for sunflowers.
[12:04] Hibari
    We'll search stores across the city—
[12:05] Yu
    Hibari-san.
[12:07] Yu
    You've been drinking.
[12:23] Yu
    There.
[12:29] Hibari
    Yu-kun, I'm coming in.
[12:32] Yu
    Good morning.
[12:37] Himari
    Morning...
[12:41] Himari
    It's been a while since I had some
     quality Yu time. Put me right to sleep.
[12:46] Himari
    I needed that to rejuvenate
    myself after my trip.
[12:49] Yu
    You say that like I'm a beauty treatment.
[12:52] Himari
    Seems like trouble broke out
    while I was gone.
[12:55] Yu
    Sorry.
[12:56] Hibari
    Let's see the final product!
[12:59] Yu
    Right!
[13:01] Himari
    Wow! It's so cute!
[13:05] Himari
    Don't you think Onii-chan?
[13:07] Hibari
    I think it's a good piece.
[13:10] Hibari
    I'm proud of you for bouncing back
    in a matter of a few days.
[13:17] Kureha
    Can I go ahead and take a look?
[13:20] Yu
    Please.
[13:25] Kureha
    Wow, it's so cute!
[13:28] Kureha
    It looks much better
    than the ones on social media.
[13:33] Kureha
    Is this a wedding tiara?
[13:35] Kureha
    The sunflowers are so bold.
    What a fashion statement.
[13:38] Kureha
    I like the attention to detail, too.
[13:43] Yu
    You really think so?
[13:46] Kureha
    Yup! It's definitely cute.
[13:49] Kureha
    I actually want it for myself.
[13:52] Yu
    You mean I won the matc—
[13:54] Kureha
    Hmm, I dunno about that.
[13:56] Kureha
    It's cute, but not good enough!
[13:59] Yu
    But you just said you want it!
[14:02] Yu
    Were you planning on saying that either way?
[14:08] Kureha
    I'd never do something that unfair.
[14:11] Kureha
    If you actually made something good,
[14:13] Kureha
    I was planning on giving up Himari-chan.
[14:16] Yu
    Then why?
[14:18] Kureha
    It's obvious, isn't it?
[14:20] Kureha
    You were supposed to give
    it your all in this match.
[14:24] Kureha
    But you tried to play it off
    with a failed piece.
[14:28] Kureha
    And I'm being unfair?
[14:33] Yu
    That's not true.
[14:35] Yu
    I always put my all into every piec—
[14:37] Kureha
    Then why did you bring me a back-up piece?
[14:43] Kureha
    I heard about the flowers dying.
[14:45] Kureha
    Sakura-chan told me so.
[14:50] Kureha
    You tried to trick me.
[14:52] Kureha
    Why didn't you tell me the truth?
[14:55] Yu
    But if I could just make it in time—
[14:58] Kureha
    If you did, then what?
[15:05] Kureha
    You said he was your best creator.
[15:07] Kureha
    What a waste of time.
[15:11] Kureha
    All right, Rion! Let's go home.
[15:13] Kureha
    I should say hi to mom for a change.
[15:26] Sakura
    You have something to say?
[15:28] Yu
    Why did you tell Kureha-san
    about the flowers dying?
[15:32] Sakura
    What were you about
    to tell Kureha back there?
[15:39] Sakura
    Let me guess.
[15:40] Sakura
    "If I could just make it
    in time, it'd be fine."
[15:44] Sakura
    If you're not serious about
    accessories, give it up already.
[15:49] Yu
    Saku-nee-san, you're saying
    I'm not serious about it?
[15:55] Sakura
    You remember these?
[16:02] Yu
    The returned pieces...
[16:05] Sakura
    When I spoke with Sasaki-sensei,
    he was very understanding.
[16:10] Sakura
    Other than one thing:
    the quality of the pieces.
[16:14] Yu
    What do you mean?
[16:16] Sakura
    Take a closer look.
[16:21] Sakura
    There's two more with the same issue.
[16:24] Sakura
    And another one with a cracked petal.
[16:26] Sakura
    You understand what this means?
[16:31] Sakura
    Remember when I said your pieces
    were frozen in time?
[16:36] Yu
    Yeah...
[16:37] Sakura
    Until then, you'd never sold
    a defective product.
[16:43] Sakura
    But after I told you that,
    you've made four bad pieces.
[16:49] Sakura
    Your past work showed
    that you gave it your all.
[16:51] Sakura
    But all it took was a little play on
    romance to get you off your game.
[16:58] Sakura
    You're not cut out to be a creator.
[17:02] Sakura
    You couldn't even get serious
    for this match with your dream at stake.
[17:07] Sakura
    Get your head straight
    if you really want to be a creator.
[17:11] Sakura
    Keep customers out of it
    if you're going to prioritize romance.
[17:16] Sakura
    Feel ashamed for toying around
    with this ridiculous tiara in a dire match.
[17:25] Himari
    Hey, Yu...
[17:27] Yu
    Himari.
[17:29] Yu
    About what I said before I made this tiara.
[17:32] Yu
    Sorry. Forget I said anything.
[17:35] Hibari
    Himari.
[17:37] Hibari
    Let's go.
[17:47] Himari
    What did you bring me out here for?
[17:50] Himari
    Sorry, but I don't plan
    on going to Tokyo like you want.
[17:55] Makishima
    You heard from Natsu, right?
[17:57] Makishima
    I'm not involved in this one.
[18:00] Makishima
    My plans start from here.
[18:04] Makishima
    Himari-chan.
[18:05] Makishima
    Join Kureha-san's agency
    and aim for the top.
[18:10] Himari
    Excuse me? I told you
    my promise with Yu comes first.
[18:15] Himari
    I know that's not easy to say,
    especially with finances.
[18:20] Makishima
    Isn't that more of a reason
    to accept Kureha-san's offer?
[18:24] Himari
    What do you mean?
[18:26] Makishima
    It's the perfect opportunity
    to get your name out there.
[18:30] Makishima
    All the more if you want to
    promote Natsu's accessories.
[18:34] Makishima
    Your strength is your charm.
[18:37] Makishima
    Go learn how to best
    leverage those strengths.
[18:41] Makishima
    Accepting Kureha-san's offer
    is only your ticket.
[18:43] Himari
    B-But I have to support Yu.
[18:46] Makishima
    Rin-chan can do that.
[18:48] Himari
    Still!
[18:51] Makishima
    I'm not telling you to hand him over.
[18:54] Makishima
    Just to let her borrow him.
[18:57] Makishima
    If your bond's the real deal,
    a few years apart can't hurt.
[19:02] Himari
    The real deal?
[19:08] Makishima
    How about this?
[19:10] Makishima
    One day, when you two's dream comes true,
[19:12] Makishima
    and you still feel
    the same way towards Natsu,
[19:15] Makishima
    I promise to help you
    with everything I've got.
[19:21] Makishima
    I might be a player,
    but I can keep a promise.
[19:24] Makishima
    Think about it.
[19:28] Himari
    It's my fault for drowning in romance
    and throwing aside friendship.
[19:32] Himari
    All while Yu was serious about his work.
[19:37] Himari
    I was the one who screwed everything up.
[19:45] Himari
    Is this the last time
    I get to cling onto you?
[19:49] Himari
    Kinda makes you think, doesn't it?
[19:53] Yu
    It's hot enough as it is. Get off.
[19:57] Himari
    Don't cheat on me while I'm gone, okay?
[20:00] Yu
    Who's cheating? We're not even dating.
[20:05] Himari
    Don't say that like you're
    not crazy for me.
[20:09] Himari
    You didn't even accept
    an offer from Enocchi.
[20:15] Yu
    By the way, Himari.
[20:17] Yu
    You're not gonna "Bwa-ha!" at me today?
[20:21] Himari
    Feels like one of those
    crossroads in life, doesn't it?
[20:27] Himari
    If I become a famous model,
[20:30] Himari
    I can promote your accessories even more.
[20:33] Himari
    Which means our dream will come true.
[20:36] Yu
    Maybe, yeah.
[20:38] Himari
    Or I could beg my grandpa
    to pay off my debt.
[20:42] Himari
    Which means we could live out our cute,
    raunchy high school dreams!
[20:47] Yu
    Don't say it like that!
[20:49] Yu
    That's an awful way to put it.
[20:54] Himari
    Our future dream or our romance today.
[20:56] Himari
    Which one are we supposed to live for?
[21:00] Yu
    Himari, don't forget.
[21:03] Yu
    If you want me to give up my dream—
[21:08] Himari
    J-Jeez, Yu. You're so obsessed with flowers.
[21:12] Yu
    No, I'm willing to—
[21:13] Himari
    It's all you care about, I get it.
[21:16] Yu
    Himari!
[21:17] Himari
    Please.
[21:18] Himari
    I can't bear you quitting.
[21:24] Himari
    I can't.
[21:28] Yu
    This world is full of contradictions.
[21:31] Yu
    Betting on our future together
    is probably the right thing to do.
[21:36] Yu
    But for that, we have no
    choice but to be apart.
[21:40] Yu
    It's messed up, but I'll accept it.
[21:44] Yu
    Somewhere down this path,
    we'll meet again one day.
[21:48] Yu
    Even if our love looks different by then,
[21:52] Yu
    I believe we'll still laugh together.
[21:54] Yu
    As best friends.
[21:58] Yu
    Farewell to our romance.
[22:02] Yu
    I wish you well.

[00:01] Himari
    If the red string of fate
    ties two people together,
[00:06] Himari
    what color string connects
    two unrequited lovers?
[00:12] Himari
    "That stuff doesn't exist," you say?
[00:15] Himari
    Of course it does.
SIGN    Beautiful Meanings
    Behind Flowers
[00:17] Himari
    How else could two people
    have such a strong bond
[00:20] Himari
    but be destined to be apart?
[00:24] Himari
    I bet it's a string with a lame color.
[00:29] Himari
    Like the color of my eyes right now.
[00:33] Himari
    I'm sure of it.

[00:39] Rion
    I really hate the summer.
[00:41] Rion
    I sweat way too much.
[00:42] Rion
    And guys stare more.
[00:51] Rion
    We don't have band practice today but...
[00:54] Rion
    I bet Yu-kun doesn't want any visitors.
[00:56] Rion's Mom
    Rion! Got a minute?
[00:59] Rion's Mom
    Can you take Kureha's gift
    to the Makishimas?
[01:04] Rion
    But it's my day off!
[01:06] Rion
    Can't Onee-chan take it?
[01:07] Rion's Mom
    Looks like she's already left.
[01:09] Rion
    What?
[01:10] Rion's Mom
    You know how restless she gets.
[01:13] Rion's Mom
    Thanks, Rion.
[01:16] Rion
    You're way too soft on Onee-chan.
[01:25] Makishima
    It's done! Himari-chan's going to Tokyo!
[01:27] Makishima
    Rin-chan's sure to win now!
[01:30] Makishima
    That lame perfectionist's got nothing on me!
[01:35] Makishima
    Take that, you loser!
[01:36] Rion
    He's weirdly energetic, it's creepy.
[01:40] Rion
    You're home for a change?
[01:42] Rion
    I figured you'd be out with girls.
[01:45] Makishima
    I'm in a good mood. Don't burst my bubble.
[01:49] Makishima
    What's the visit for?
[01:52] Makishima
    Oh, Kureha-san's gift.
[01:54] Makishima
    I'll give it to the others later.
[01:59] Makishima
    What's your problem?
[02:00] Makishima
    Go ahead and say it.
[02:02] Rion
    Onee-chan's trying to take Hii-chan away.
[02:06] Makishima
    She seems pretty set on her.
[02:10] Makishima
    But this is your chance, isn't it?
[02:13] Rion
    That's not fair, though.
[02:14] Makishima
    You're still trying to play nice?
[02:17] Makishima
    Himari-chan was the one
    who tried to one-up you.
[02:20] Makishima
    Anything's fair game.
[02:22] Rion
    I mean sure, but...
[02:25] Rion
    Shii-kun, can you stop her?
[02:27] Makishima
    No can do.
[02:29] Makishima
    I've pulled all these strings
    to help you win.
[02:33] Makishima
    I can't put all my hard work to wast—
[02:34] Rion
    I bet Onee-chan would be impressed
    if you can outsmart her.
[02:42] Rion
    Like with tennis.
[02:43] Rion
    Going to nationals is just to make
    Onee-chan admit you're above Hibari-san.
[02:50] Rion
    Not to mention you only approached Yu-kun
    because he was Hibari-san's favorite.
[02:56] Rion
    And now look at you, you're actual friends.
[02:58] Rion
    Want me to keep going?
[03:05] Makishima
    Fine! I get it!
[03:07] Makishima
    You're right.
[03:09] Makishima
    Not that I care one bit about
    that cruel woman!
[03:13] Makishima
    But it would feel nice
    to beat her at her own game.
[03:17] Makishima
    You sure, though?
[03:18] Makishima
    You might essentially be handing
    the win to Himari-chan!
[03:22] Rion
    Fine with me!
[03:24] Rion
    I don't want to win like this anyways.
[03:26] Makishima
    You sisters are both so stubborn.
[03:30] Makishima
    Fine, but after this,
    I'm not helping you anymore.
[03:33] Makishima
    Got that?
[03:34] Rion
    I never asked you for help. Besides...
[03:38] Rion
    I'm only letting Himari-chan borrow Yu-kun.
[03:41] Rion
    In the end, I'll be the winner!
[03:45] Makishima
    Good grief.
[03:47] Makishima
    I almost feel bad for Himari-chan for having
[03:51] Makishima
    a lifelong rival with such nerves of steel.
[04:01] Hibari
    Hi, there.
[04:02] Hibari
    What an unexpected caller.
[04:06] Hibari
    A favor?
[04:10] Yu
    I'll be all alone at the
    Gardening Club until graduation.
[04:16] Yu
    It might even be that way
    until I open my own store.
[04:19] Yu
    Or even for the rest of my life.
[04:22] Yu
    Himari may never come back.
[04:25] Yu
    If it comes to that, would
    I even want to open a store?
[04:29] Yu
    I'd spend ten, twenty years living
    an ordinary life without her.
[04:36] Yu
    Dammit!
[04:37] Yu
    Why am I being so negative?!
[04:40] Yu
    Everything will be fine!
[04:41] Yu
    I trust Himari. I'll work hard, too!
[04:45] Makishima
    You look as miserable as ever.
[04:49] Makishima
    Isn't it Himari-chan's job to water
    the flowers in the morning?
[04:53] Yu
    She's leaving for Tokyo today.
[04:55] Makishima
    What time does the train leave?
[04:56] Yu
    Around noon, I think.
[04:58] Makishima
    Then we've got some time.
[05:00] Makishima
    Let's have a chat.
[05:01] Yu
    Huh?
[05:01] Makishima
    You're going too, aren't you?
[05:04] Makishima
    This might be our last chance
    to talk face-to-face.
[05:07] Yu
    Why would I go to Tokyo?
[05:09] Makishima
    Oh?
[05:10] Makishima
    Weren't you all worked up
    about following her back in May?
[05:15] Makishima
    You've already decided
    to give up accessories once.
[05:17] Makishima
    How's it different
    the second or third time?
[05:20] Yu
    This situation's totally different.
[05:22] Makishima
    Is it? How so?
[05:24] Yu
    Himari wants to model for my accessories.
[05:27] Yu
    How could I stop her?
[05:29] Makishima
    How lame.
[05:30] Makishima
    That's how I know you're stupid.
[05:32] Yu
    What do you—
[05:34] Makishima
    What's so wrong about
    devoting your life to a woman?
[05:37] Makishima
    You don't need your own store
    to make accessories.
[05:42] Makishima
    You don't have to be an artist,
    you can work a normal job
[05:44] Makishima
    and be with the woman you love.
[05:46] Makishima
    Is that such a bad life?
[05:49] Makishima
    But you can't make that choice.
[05:52] Makishima
    Why? Because you're afraid of going
    back to your old, boring self.
[05:56] Makishima
    You're afraid of being surrounded
    by people who look down on you.
[06:02] Makishima
    Let me be brutally honest.
[06:03] Makishima
    You don't actually love Himari-chan.
[06:07] Makishima
    You're just taking advantage of her.
[06:10] Makishima
    You spent two years as her best friend
    only because that's what she wanted.
[06:15] Makishima
    Now that she wants romance,
    you're playing your part.
[06:19] Makishima
    It's all for your own convenience.
[06:22] Makishima
    You wouldn't care whichever way.
[06:25] Yu
    What the hell would you know?
[06:28] Yu
    You—!
[06:30] Yu
    You have no clue
    what we mean to each other!
[06:32] Yu
    I... I love Himari!
[06:36] Yu
    Even if she didn't help my dream!
[06:38] Yu
    Even if she didn't protect me!
[06:40] Yu
    I've already decided to be with Himari!
[06:44] Makishima
    Great. You know where you stand.
[06:47] Makishima
    Now there's only one thing to do.
[06:55] Makishima
    I played it close, he almost hit me.
[07:01] Makishima
    It's not easy having to live
    without your number one girl like me.
[07:17] Yu
    That's right. It was her all along.
[07:21] Yu
    I just wanted her eyes on me.
[07:35] Dude
    Whoa, bro.
[07:37] Lady
    You okay?
[07:49] Himari
    Yu!
[08:01] Yu
    That's all I needed!
[08:14] Himari
    I'm such a backstabber.
[08:16] Himari
    I pretended to support Enocchi.
[08:18] Himari
    Only to kiss Yu behind her back.
[08:23] Himari
    But... I've never liked someone so much
[08:29] Himari
    that none of that even mattered.
SIGN    On my way!
SIGN    I'm by the station entrance.
SIGN    Oops, sorry. Stuck in traffic.
[08:35] Himari
    I hope she doesn't show up.
[08:38] Himari
    Snap out of it. You've made up your mind.
[08:42] Himari
    I was just unlucky.
[08:45] Himari
    Kureha-san said my looks were my talent.
[08:49] Himari
    That made me happy.
[08:52] Himari
    After all, I didn't think
    I was good for anything.
[08:56] Himari
    Maybe, just maybe, my looks could help Yu.
[09:00] Himari
    Still, if I think about
    what's most important to me,
[09:06] Himari
    it's the time I spend with Yu.
[09:08] Himari
    And now, I can't have that anymore.
[09:11] Himari
    If that's how it is, I don't want to
    be the prettiest girl in the world.
[09:16] Himari
    I don't even want these fairy-like eyes.
[09:19] Himari
    Or any friends. Or family.
[09:24] Himari
    I just wish I were born
    as someone loved by Yu.
[09:30] Rion
    Hii-chan.
[09:32] Himari
    E-Enocchi!
[09:34] Himari
    You came to see me off?
[09:36] Himari
    You're too nice!
[09:38] Himari
    Not like that idiot who left me on read.
[09:42] Rion
    I'm not here for that.
[09:43] Rion
    I just wanted to say thanks.
[09:45] Himari
    Say thanks?
[09:46] Rion
    Hii-chan, you threw the match.
[09:49] Rion
    So thanks!
[09:53] Himari
    Y-You're mad I kissed Yu, huh?
[09:56] Himari
    That was nothing, it was—
[09:58] Rion
    You're still trying to play the good girl?
[10:01] Rion
    It's been obvious the entire time.
[10:04] Rion
    There's no use glossing it over.
[10:08] Rion
    Are your dreams more important
    than your true feelings?
[10:13] Himari
    O-Of course they are!
[10:14] Himari
    You know how hard Yu's worked for it!
[10:18] Rion
    Sure I do.
[10:19] Himari
    It would be a huge plus
    for the store one day.
[10:22] Himari
    Besides, modeling
    isn't something anyone can do.
[10:26] Rion
    But why do it if you don't want to?
[10:30] Himari
    Then why don't you go instead!
[10:38] Rion
    Okay!
[10:40] Rion
    I'll go.
[10:42] Rion
    I'm not sure if I'm cut out for it,
    but I'll do it for you and Yu-kun.
[10:47] Himari
    B-But...
[10:48] Rion
    So give me Yu-kun in return.
[10:52] Rion
    I'll let you borrow him
    until he opens his store.
[10:56] Rion
    But when I come home, give him to me.
[10:59] Rion
    You don't mind, right?
[11:00] Rion
    Let's pinky promise!
[11:03] Rion
    No?
[11:04] Rion
    You can still be best friends.
[11:06] Rion
    It's okay.
[11:08] Rion
    I'm sure you'll be able to
    find someone just like him!
[11:12] Himari
    No, that's not it.
[11:16] Himari
    I wasn't the one who found Yu.
[11:20] Himari
    Yu was the one who discovered me.
[11:23] Himari
    There's no doing that again.
[11:29] Rion
    See, you're trying too hard.
[11:33] Rion
    You've always been like that.
[11:36] Rion
    Even though you steal everything you want,
[11:40] Rion
    you've never been able to
    say what you want most.
[11:53] Himari
    I don't wanna!
[11:55] Himari
    I hate it!
[11:57] Himari
    I don't really wanna go!
[12:00] Rion
    There, there. I know.
[12:03] Himari
    But this was all my fault.
[12:05] Himari
    I have to make up for it somehow.
[12:08] Himari
    And what if Yu's better off without me?
[12:12] Rion
    Honestly, I wonder about that too.
[12:14] Rion
    You always stir up trouble
    and involve everyone around you.
[12:19] Himari
    Are you trying to kill me or what?
[12:25] Rion
    You know what I noticed?
[12:27] Rion
    You two are both so focused on
    how to make your dreams come true.
[12:33] Himari
    What do you mean?
[12:34] Rion
    Does it have to be that complicated?
[12:37] Rion
    Like my mom.
[12:38] Rion
    Making sweets was initially just a hobby.
[12:41] Rion
    She only opened her own store recently.
[12:42] Himari
    Really?
[12:44] Rion
    Having a dream is nice, but you
    can't lose sight of the present.
[12:48] Rion
    Opening a store isn't everything.
[12:51] Himari
    But it might be for Yu.
[12:54] Rion
    You think so?
[12:56] Rion
    Is the store the most
    important thing to Yu-kun?
[13:01] Rion
    Or is it—
[13:02] Yu
    Himari!
[13:04] Yu
    Himari!
[13:10] Himari
    Yu!
[13:13] Rion
    See?
[13:14] Himari
    What are you doing here?
[13:16] Yu
    Please don't go!
[13:18] Yu
    I can't choose between
    my dream and romance.
[13:21] Yu
    I'm not even sure which is the right answer.
[13:23] Yu
    But I do know that you don't
    actually want to go to Tokyo!
[13:28] Himari
    But this is the only way I can help.
[13:32] Yu
    That's not true.
[13:34] Yu
    And you don't need to help me.
[13:37] Yu
    You don't need to do anything.
[13:40] Yu
    We don't need a purpose to be together.
[13:41] Yu
    That's not what this is about!
[13:44] Yu
    I was so afraid to lose the one
     person who understands my passion.
[13:48] Yu
    I was too afraid to lose you!
[13:51] Yu
    That's why I was so fixated
    on what we could do for each other.
[13:54] Yu
    But all I ever wanted was for you to see me!
[14:00] Yu
    If you're doing this for me,
    don't sacrifice yourself!
[14:04] Yu
    There's no having fun without you around.
[14:07] Yu
    Like the best friends we've always been!
[14:13] Himari
    Yu, I—
[14:17] Kureha
    All right you two, that's enough.
[14:20] Kureha
    Yu-chan, I'm not sure that's very fair.
[14:23] Kureha
    You lost the match, remember?
[14:26] Himari
    Kureha-san, I can't go!
[14:28] Yu
    Please, give us one more chance!
[14:31] Kureha
    Nope, sorry.
[14:32] Kureha
    I only gave you the first chance
    for Hibari-kun's sake.
[14:36] Kureha
    Besides, aren't you two
    forgetting something?
[14:40] Kureha
    Himari-chan has a debt to pay.
[14:43] Kureha
    First thing's first, she should—
[14:45] Makishima
    Then allow me to pay that off!
[14:52] Makishima
    Here you go!
[14:53] Kureha
    Wh-What's going on?
[14:57] Kureha
    Ouch...
[14:59] Kureha
    What's all this about?
[15:02] Rion
    Shii-kun, you're late.
[15:05] Makishima
    Well it was a lot of cash.
[15:08] Makishima
    Though, I will say,
[15:09] Makishima
    hats off to that perfectionist
    for making it in time.
[15:16] Himari
    Onii-chan!
[15:17] Kureha
    Shinji-kun, you better explain yourself.
[15:20] Makishima
    Like I said, I'm paying off
    Himari-chan's debt on her behalf.
[15:25] Makishima
    As an outsider, I can sign a contract
    with Hibari-san to borrow money.
[15:31] Kureha
    I didn't expect you
    to betray me of all people.
[15:34] Makishima
    Betray you? Please. You declined my offer.
[15:38] Makishima
    Did you expect me to sit idly by?
[15:42] Makishima
    You can't be that naive.
[15:44] Makishima
    Well? You've got your money.
[15:47] Makishima
    Any other problems?
[15:56] Yu
    I—
[15:57] Kureha
    I'm over this!
[15:59] Yu
    Huh? Wait, um...
[16:03] Kureha
    Thanks for ruining everything.
[16:07] Hibari
    Hey now! Kureha-kun!
[16:08] Hibari
    Stop that!
[16:09] Kureha
    Hurry up and take me somewhere
    cool so I can let you have it!
[16:14] Hibari
    It's always this with you!
[16:17] Kureha
    That's that. You can go now.
[16:19] Kureha
    Bye-bye!
[16:25] Himari
    Are we off the hook?
[16:27] Yu
    I dunno, maybe?
[16:28] Makishima
    According to Kureha-san, it was a loan.
[16:31] Makishima
    Pay it off and it's a done deal.
[16:33] Makishima
    Good thing I bought Natsu, Himari-chan,
    and Rin-chan's entire high school years!
[16:41] Makishima
    From now on, no quitting school
    or going to Tokyo.
[16:44] Makishima
    I won't allow it!
[16:46] Makishima
    Of course, you'll also be forced
    to make accessories until we graduate.
[16:50] Makishima
    Stay tuned for other arrangements to follow.
[16:53] Himari
    Makishima-kun, you really are the worst.
[16:57] Makishima
    I like to keep myself amused.
[16:59] Makishima
    You three's rom-com does the trick.
[17:04] Makishima
    Nothing wrong with paying
    for a little entertainment.
[17:09] Makishima
    Never mind that.
[17:10] Makishima
    Now that things are settled, let's go out.
[17:13] Makishima
    It'll be on Himari-chan, obviously.
[17:15] Himari
    Why would I be paying?!
[17:18] Makishima
    Who do you have to thank but me?
[17:20] Makishima
    You can't argue with me ever again!
[17:24] Himari
    Can you believe this guy, Enocchi?
[17:26] Rion
    Actually, sushi sounds great right now.
[17:29] Himari
    I see how it is!
[17:37] Himari
    I got bailed out but
    definitely paid the price.
[17:41] Yu
    You gotta admit though, it was a huge help.
[17:45] Himari
    You're so soft on Makishima-kun.
[17:48] Himari
    You'll end up in trouble
    if you keep hanging out with him.
[17:51] Yu
    I'd say that's already happened a few times.
[17:55] Himari
    See? You don't sense danger very well.
[17:59] Himari
    That's why your store will need me!
[18:03] Yu
    Oh yeah, about that...
[18:06] Yu
    I'm thinking of abandoning that dream.
[18:08] Himari
    What?! Why? Why?!
[18:10] Himari
    It's not like Kureha-san's stopping us!
[18:13] Yu
    Sorry, I worded that wrong.
[18:16] Yu
    I meant we still have the same root problem.
[18:20] Himari
    About what Sakura-san said?
[18:24] Himari
    The "playground frozen in time," was it?
[18:28] Yu
    Yup.
[18:29] Yu
    The main issue was my
    stance towards customers.
[18:34] Himari
    That's on me, too.
[18:36] Yu
    No, I was the one being spoiled.
[18:40] Yu
    Saku-nee-san was trying
    to tell me that all along.
[18:43] Yu
    I just wasn't listening to her.
[18:48] Yu
    I've been thinking, and I see it now.
[18:50] Yu
    I was too fixated on opening my own store.
[18:55] Himari
    Are you saying that shouldn't be our dream?
[19:00] Yu
    No, that's not it.
[19:02] Yu
    Opening a store by the time we're thirty
    was our dream in middle school.
[19:08] Yu
    But if we don't keep an open mind,
    we end up limiting ourselves.
[19:12] Yu
    Being so focused on that one dream
    made me overlook the important things.
[19:19] Yu
    Like how I wanted to keep flowers
    from dying back in grade school.
[19:24] Yu
    Or how I wanted to share
    the beauty I saw in flowers with others.
[19:30] Yu
    Saku-nee-san was upset that I forgot
    why I started in the first place.
[19:37] Yu
    I'm dreaming even bigger from now on.
[19:39] Yu
    Opening a store is only part of the process.
[19:43] Yu
    Love, my dreams, my own store...
[19:45] Yu
    Maybe it's selfish to want everything.
[19:48] Yu
    But I'll become someone worthy of it all.
[19:52] Yu
    From now on, I'll work harder
    than Saku-nee-san.
[19:54] Yu
    I'll make sure Kureha-san
    never looks down on me.
[19:56] Yu
    I won't give Hibari-san any reason to worry.
[19:59] Yu
    You'll never have to
    sacrifice yourself again.
[20:02] Yu
    I promise to stand on my own two feet.
[20:06] Yu
    So...
[20:08] Yu
    It's not enough to have you
    until I open a store.
[20:11] Yu
    Will you let me be selfish
    and stand by me forever?
[20:15] Himari
    Y-You're making me blush.
[20:22] Yu
    Bwa-ha!
[20:24] Himari
    Hey, Yu! You idiot!
[20:27] Yu
    Found your weakness!
    It's straightforward confessions!
[20:30] Himari
    Don't tease me like that!
[20:32] Himari
    I'm an emotional mess right now!
[20:33] Himari
    Stop playing it cool!
[20:37] Yu
    Oh yeah, Himari.
[20:39] Yu
    You forgot this.
[20:42] Himari
    My best friend ring...
[20:48] Himari
    Does this mean we're
    still only best friends?
[20:55] (Flashback) Yu
    A totally unique best
    friend ring just for you.
[20:59] Yu
    Oh, right. I chickened out back then.
[21:04] Yu
    There's something I haven't
    told you about this ring.
[21:09] Yu
    See this here? It's a purple tulip seed.
[21:14] Himari
    Yeah, and...?
[21:17] Yu
    You see, um...
SIGN    signifies "eternal love"
[21:25] Himari
    We used to be best friends...
[21:30] Himari
    But now... we're not.
[21:36] Yu
    Himari!
[21:38] Himari
    You're late!
[21:40] Yu
    Sorry, I was up late last night
    after my shift at the family store.
[21:45] Yu
    Thanks for covering for me.
[21:49] Himari
    Will you give me something in return?
[21:51] Yu
    Like what?
[21:52] Himari
    Yu, do you love me?
[21:55] Himari
    How much?
[21:56] Himari
    More than anything in the world?
[21:59] Yu
    M-More than anything in the world.
[22:01] Yu
    Himari...
[22:03] Himari
    Go on?
[22:21] Yu
    I love you.
[22:31] Himari
    Bwa-he-he.
[22:33] Yu
    What was that?
[22:34] Yu
    Did the "Bwa-ha!" just evolve?
[22:36] Yu
    Must be the lovey-dovey version.
[22:40] Yu
    Himari's the cutest girl in the world
    when she doesn't hide her feelings.
[22:46] Makishima
    Good grief.
[22:47] Makishima
    Getting it on early today, are we?
[22:50] Rion
    Yu-kun, Hii-chan, good morning.
[22:52] Yu
    M-Morning, Enomoto-san!
[22:54] Himari
    You two aren't plotting
    to take Yu again, are you?!
[22:57] Himari
    He's mine!
[22:59] Rion
    I won't give you these with that attitude.
[23:02] Rion
    Here you go, Yu-kun.
[23:04] Yu
    Thanks!
[23:07] Himari
    Not fair! I want some too!
[23:07] Yu
    Sometimes, I get to thinking.
[23:12] Yu
    How we'll probably end up
    in a similar spot.
[23:16] Yu
    We'll pretend to understand
    each other even though we don't.
[23:21] Yu
    Even when we know
    to put our desires into words,
[23:24] Yu
    our pride will sometimes get in the way.
[23:27] Yu
    Still, we'll push forward into the future.
[23:32] Yu
    This is our summer playground.
[23:35] Yu
    It's not over yet.
