SIGN The Scent of Cherry Sage
[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!

[21:54] Teacher
See?
[21:55] Teacher
If you can get a perfect score,
do the work to begin with!
[21:58] Yu
Sorry about that!
[22:00] Yu
Thankfully, I got
by without having to quit high school.
