SIGN    Pliny the Younger, "Epistulae"
[00:17] Ayanokoji
    You brought the newest issue?
[00:19] Hiyori
    Yes, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.
[00:24] Ayanokoji
    You've already read it?
[00:26] Hiyori
    They've all been so good, after all.
[00:30] Hiyori
    Once you finish it, feel free
    to return it to the library.
[00:35] Hiyori
    By the way, I'm sorry to be blunt,
[00:38] Hiyori
    but are you the one who changed Ryuen-kun?
[00:42] Ayanokoji
    What makes you think that?
[00:45] Hiyori
    I just put the puzzle pieces together.
[00:50] Hiyori
    I'm sorry to be so forward with you.
[00:53] Hiyori
    I know you don't like to
    talk about things like that.
[00:58] Hiyori
    If I lost a friend with similar
    interests over something like this,
[01:03] Hiyori
    I'd really regret it.
[01:05] Hiyori
    But I thought that if I didn't take that
    step, we might not make any progress.
[01:10] Ayanokoji
    Any progress?
[01:12] Hiyori
    I'm sorry.
[01:13] Hiyori
    I don't even know what I'm trying to say.
[01:18] Hiyori
    Um, did you hear how our
    Class D fought in the final exam?
[01:24] Ayanokoji
    I don't condemn your method, at least.
[01:27] Hiyori
    But a plan that could get your
    opponent hurt is clearly wrong.
[01:33] Ayanokoji
    If you knew that, why didn't you stop it?
[01:36] Hiyori
    You really think he'd listen
    to what I have to say?
[01:43] Ayanokoji
    Would you take a message
    to Ryuen for me, Hiyori?
[01:48] Hiyori
    Of course.
SIGN    I'd like to talk to you.
     Can you come now?
     I'll be waiting at Café Pallet in Keyaki Mall.
    
    Let me know if you can't make it.
[01:51] Karuizawa
    "Come now"? What in the world does he want?

[03:38] Karuizawa
    Hey.
[03:40] Karuizawa
    What do you want?
[03:42] Ayanokoji
    Sit, why don't you?
[03:44] Karuizawa
    If people see us having tea together,
    won't they spread weird rumors?
[03:53] Karuizawa
    Were you with someone just now?
[03:55] Ayanokoji
    Yeah. Hiyori.
[03:57] Karuizawa
    Hiyo—
[03:59] Ayanokoji
    We both like reading, so we talk a lot.
[04:04] Karuizawa
    Oh? You use her given name, huh?
[04:07] Karuizawa
    And you've got stuff in common?
[04:11] Karuizawa
    Oh, yeah?
[04:15] Karuizawa
    Look, I don't care who you're friends with.
[04:19] Karuizawa
    What did you want?
[04:21] Ayanokoji
    Sorry, I forgot.
[04:24] Karuizawa
    What?! What's wrong with you?!
[04:27] Ayanokoji
    I'll email you again if I remember.
[04:30] Karuizawa
    This is ridiculous.
[04:32] Karuizawa
    I'm out of here.
[04:39] Ryuen
    Meeting up in the bathroom?
[04:42] Ryuen
    Very tasteful of you.
[04:43] Hashimoto
    I heard how you shone during the final exam.
[04:47] Hashimoto
    Can I assume you're back in business, then?
[04:49] Ryuen
    Who can say? Maybe it was just a whim.
[04:54] Hashimoto
    So? What do you intend to do next?
[04:57] Ryuen
    Don't think you can win by
    going around as a double agent.
[05:02] Ryuen
    You damn snake.
[05:05] Hashimoto
    Double agent?
[05:07] Hashimoto
    Sorry, but I'm not content to
    be in with just two classes.
[05:13] Ryuen
    Kanzaki?
[05:14] Hashimoto
    He was just begging for an audience with you.
[05:18] Ryuen
    And in return, you get an in with Class B?
[05:22] Ryuen
    Did you really think
    Kanzaki would go for that?
[05:25] Hashimoto
    Oh, he will.
[05:27] Hashimoto
    Won't you?
[05:28] Kanzaki
    Hashimoto, I don't trust you at all.
[05:32] Kanzaki
    But I do believe I can use you.
[05:36] Hashimoto
    You heard him.
[05:37] Ryuen
    So? Here to describe to
    me the taste of defeat?
[05:43] Kanzaki
    Just so you know, the dirty tricks you
    used won't work on Class B again.
[05:49] Ryuen
    Please. You're just Ichinose's bootlicker.
[05:53] Ryuen
    What do you expect to do?
[05:55] Kanzaki
    It's true that I've spent this
    year as Ichinose's supporter.
[06:00] Kanzaki
    But if Ichinose can't bring
    herself to do what's necessary...
[06:03] Kanzaki
    I'll take my own approach to
    fighting an enemy like you.
[06:16] Ishizaki
    Ayanokoji!
[06:17] Ibuki
    Hey!
[06:18] Ishizaki
    Hey, Ayanokoji!
[06:20] Ishizaki
    I thought up the perfect
    way to get to Class A!
[06:24] Ishizaki
    You should join our class!
[06:27] Ibuki
    Huh? Where's this coming from?
[06:30] Ishizaki
    If Ryuen-san and Ayanokoji teamed
    up, they'd be unbeatable.
[06:34] Ishizaki
    Sakayanagi and Ichinose
    would be a breeze to beat!
[06:37] Ayanokoji
    I'd certainly give you my best.
[06:40] Ibuki
    Hey... Are you serious?
[06:42] Ishizaki
    See? See?
[06:43] Ishizaki
    We'd love to have you!
[06:45] Ayanokoji
    But it can't really happen.
[06:47] Ayanokoji
    Where would you get the twenty million
    points needed for me to change classes?
[06:51] Ayanokoji
    Besides, it's more fun to have
    him as an enemy than as an ally.
[06:58] Ibuki
    You and Ryuen are both weirdos.
[07:02] Ayanokoji
    Maybe you're right.
[07:12] Ayanokoji
    You'll catch a cold just standing there.
[07:15] Ichinose
    Ayanokoji-kun?
[07:18] Ichinose
    You can be rather forceful, Ayanokoji-kun.
[07:22] Ayanokoji
    You seemed like you didn't
    want to go back to your room.
[07:27] Ichinose
    It seems like you're always
    there when I'm feeling low.
[07:33] Ayanokoji
    Feel free to share your
    troubles with me again.
[07:37] Ichinose
    I can't.
[07:39] Ichinose
    I've already relied on you enough.
[07:43] Ichinose
    To impose on you any longer...
[07:46] Ichinose
    It would just be too pathetic.
[07:49] Ayanokoji
    You don't trust me?
[07:51] Ichinose
    It isn't that!
[07:53] Ichinose
    I think I trust you more
    than anyone else right now.
[07:58] Ayanokoji
    Even though I'm an
    enemy from another class?
[08:01] Ichinose
    I don't like to throw
    around the word "enemy."
[08:05] Ichinose
    You might not be my ally,
[08:07] Ichinose
    but I can trust you.
[08:14] Ichinose
    Talking to Horikita-san
    earlier made it clear.
[08:18] Ichinose
    She's grown so much in this past year.
[08:21] Ichinose
    Same with Ryuen-kun and Sakayanagi-san.
[08:25] Ichinose
    The other class leaders are
    getting stronger and stronger.
[08:30] Ichinose
    I wonder if I'll be able to beat them.
[08:34] Ichinose
    I'm scared.
[08:36] Ichinose
    Where will I be in a year?
[08:39] Ichinose
    What do I do?
[08:41] Ichinose
    What do I do?
[08:49] Ichinose
    Ayanokoji-kun?
[08:52] Ichinose
    You're a mysterious person, Ayanokoji-kun.
[08:56] Ayanokoji
    Hey, Ichinose.
[08:58] Ayanokoji
    Will you meet with me again,
    like this, a year from now?
[09:02] Ayanokoji
    Just you and me.
[09:07] Ayanokoji
    Focus on moving forward for one
    whole year, then meet with me.
[09:12] Ayanokoji
    Can you promise you'll do that?
[09:14] Ichinose
    I...
[09:15] Ichinose
    But by then, what if I...
[09:18] Ichinose
    What if our classes...
[09:20] Ayanokoji
    That doesn't matter.
[09:22] Ayanokoji
    There are words I want to say to you now,
[09:25] Ayanokoji
    and I promise that I'll say them to you then.
[09:28] Ichinose
    I promise, too.
[09:30] Ichinose
    I'll spend this year
    fighting with all I have!
[09:33] Ichinose
    And I'll aim for Class A!
[09:36] Ayanokoji
    The future isn't certain.
[09:38] Ayanokoji
    But...
[09:40] Ayanokoji
    If Ichinose ever seems
    about to fall into ruin...
[09:44] Ayanokoji
    I'll deal the killing blow.

    Forget that crap.
[09:59] Ryuen
    What's with this message from Hiyori,
SIGN    Shiina Hiyori
SIGN    Ryuen Kakeru
SIGN    A message for Ryuen-kun
SIGN    This is from Ayanokoji-kun.
    
    "I could have more easily and safely won
    five matches in the special exam."
    
    For the rest, please talk to Ayanokoji-kun.
[10:03] Ryuen
    Ayanokoji?
[10:04] Ayanokoji
    It means just what it says.
[10:06] Ryuen
    You could've done it better and safer, huh?
[10:11] Ayanokoji
    I'd be sad if you messed up
    and had to leave the school.
[10:16] Ryuen
    Big words from the man
    who lost to Sakayanagi.
[10:21] Ayanokoji
    I did lose, yes.
[10:23] Ayanokoji
    And as I was the team captain,
    I can't make excuses.
[10:27] Ryuen
    Yeah? Don't give me that crap.
[10:30] Ryuen
    You beat me, so you could've beat Sakayanagi.
[10:35] Ryuen
    Were you just not even trying?
[10:38] Ryuen
    Or maybe there was something
    beyond your control...
[10:42] Ryuen
    Is that it?
[10:47] Ayanokoji
    So, what are you going to do next?
[10:50] Ryuen
    Enjoy my time off, of course.
[10:53] Ryuen
    And once I get tired of that,
[10:55] Ryuen
    I think I'll warm up by crushing
    Ichinose and Sakayanagi.
[10:59] Ryuen
    And if anyone's going to expel you...
[11:04] Ryuen
    It's going to be me!
[11:11] Ayanokoji
    Impressive.
[11:14] Ryuen
    That's the best a surprise attack gets me?
[11:17] Ayanokoji
    You do have potential.
[11:20] Ayanokoji
    Try to mature more effectively, Ryuen.
[11:24] Ryuen
    Since when did you become my teacher?
[11:28] Ayanokoji
    If Class B had found proof of what
    you did, you'd have been screwed.
[11:35] Ayanokoji
    If you stay at your current level,
    we'll never have a rematch.
[11:40] Ayanokoji
    Don't leave obvious tracks.
[11:44] Ryuen
    Under the circumstances,
    I'll take your shitty advice.
[11:48] Ryuen
    But one day, I will crush you.
[11:54] Ayanokoji
    I wouldn't mind being crushed by you.

    You're going on lots of dates
    with Ike-kun lately, huh?

    Huh? It's not like that with him!
[12:05] Matsushita
    You don't have to deny it!
[12:08] Sato
    I'm curious, too!
[12:09] Shinohara
    I told you, it's not like that!

    Oh, really?
[12:13] Matsushita
    You're blushing, though.
[12:14] Matsushita
    You're red all the way to your ears!
[12:17] Shinohara
    Seriously, knock it off!
[12:19] Shinohara
    It's nothing!
[12:20] Matsushita
    Want me to buy you a crêpe after this, then?
[12:21] Karuizawa
    Sorry, got something to do.
[12:23] Karuizawa
    I'm taking off early! See you later!
[12:26] Matsushita
    S-Sure.
[12:29] Shinohara
    Karuizawa-san seemed a little down, huh?
[12:32] Sato
    Did something happen to her?
[12:34] Matsushita
    Speaking of, Sato-san,
[12:36] Matsushita
    how did things go with Ayanokoji-kun?
[12:38] Sato
    Huh?!
[12:39] Shinohara
    That's right!
[12:40] Shinohara
    You were thinking about
    how to ask him out, right?
[12:43] Sato
    Promise you won't tell anyone?
[12:46] Matsushita
    Of course we do!
[12:47] Shinohara
    You bet!
[12:48] Sato
    R-Right...
[12:52] Shinohara
    What? He turned you down like that?!
[12:55] Sato
    K-Keep it down!
[12:57] Shinohara
    What is he, stupid or something?
[13:00] Sato
    I think... Ayanokoji-kun likes Karuizawa-san.
[13:05] Shinohara
    F-For real?
[13:07] Sato
    Yeah.
[13:09] Shinohara
    And I think Karuizawa-san
    might like Ayanokoji-kun, too.
[13:16] Shinohara
    I'm trying to forget, but...
[13:19] Shinohara
    I always thought Karuizawa-san
    had higher standards, like me.
[13:25] Sato
    But... Ayanokoji-kun's a quality guy, too.
[13:29] Shinohara
    Really? He's just a fast runner, right?
[13:32] Sato
    Yeah, but... it's more than that!
[13:38] Ayanokoji
    What did you call me out here for?
[13:41] Tsukishiro
    Well?
[13:43] Tsukishiro
    What would you think of returning to
    your father after this spring break?
[13:48] Ayanokoji
    No. I like this school.
[13:51] Tsukishiro
    I'm afraid your life here might
    just get harder if you don't.
[13:58] Tsukishiro
    Why don't we have a game?
[14:01] Tsukishiro
    A student from the White Room will
    be mixed in with the incoming class.
[14:08] Tsukishiro
    If you can ascertain which student it is
    by the end of April, I will withdraw.
[14:14] Tsukishiro
    You're not the only success we've had.
[14:18] Tsukishiro
    That student will be the
    one to put an end to you.
[14:21] Ayanokoji
    Understood.
[14:23] Ayanokoji
    But there is one thing that
    I can say with confidence.
[14:28] Ayanokoji
    There is no one from the White
    Room who is superior to me.
[14:33] Tsukishiro
    Those eerie eyes with such
    darkness within them...
[14:38] Tsukishiro
    You're the spitting image of your father.
[14:43] Matsushita
    Ayanokoji-kun?
[14:50] Ayanokoji
    Can I help you with something, Matsushita?
[14:53] Ayanokoji
    What's the matter?
[14:54] Matsushita
    Were you talking to the
    chairman about something?
[14:57] Matsushita
    Apparently they want to remodel this area.
[15:00] Matsushita
    I happened to be here,
    so he asked my opinion.
[15:03] Matsushita
    Oh? Is that it?
[15:09] Matsushita
    Hey, you gave the right answer during
    that mental math test, right?
SIGN    Q10
[15:19] Ayanokoji
    That subject just happens
    to be one I'm good at.
[15:22] Matsushita
    I saw you and Hirata-kun
    talking on the bench.
[15:34] Matsushita
    Hirata-kun's recovery didn't
    just happen, did it?
[15:38] Matsushita
    Ayanokoji-kun, you're better at academics
    and sports than you admit to, aren't you?
[15:43] Ayanokoji
    I hold back because I
    don't want to stand out.
[15:46] Matsushita
    Then please contribute more
    to the class from now on!
[15:50] Matsushita
    I want to reach Class A, too.
[15:54] Ayanokoji
    I'd recently been thinking
    of doing that, actually.
[15:58] Ayanokoji
    But don't get your hopes up too high.
[16:02] Ayanokoji
    I'm already using 70 to 80
    percent of what I have.
[16:05] Matsushita
    Okay.
[16:08] Matsushita
    And... can I ask you one thing?

[16:17] (Flashback) Matsushita
    I want to ask you about Karuizawa-san.
[16:20] (Flashback) Matsushita
    Does she like you because she
    knows what you can really do?
[16:25] (Flashback) Ayanokoji
    That's not why.
[16:27] (Flashback) Matsushita
    Then what is your relationship, exactly?

[16:36] Ayanokoji
    What is it?
[16:38] Horikita
    Since we're going for Class A, would you
    be willing to unleash your full ability?
[16:44] Ayanokoji
    No.
[16:45] Horikita
    Why not?
[16:47] Ayanokoji
    Unfortunately, there's no one in our
    class year who can compete with me.
[16:52] Ayanokoji
    There's no point in me going all-out.
[16:54] Horikita
    Let's put that to the test.
[16:56] Ayanokoji
    How?
[16:59] Horikita
    How about competing with me in
    our second-year written exams?
SIGN    Ayanokoji Kiyotaka
[17:05] Ayanokoji
    If I win, you join the student council.
[17:11] Horikita
    Could I ask why you want that?
[17:14] Ayanokoji
    I'll tell you when you lose.
[17:17] Horikita
    I don't care for that.
[17:20] Horikita
    In exchange, if I win,
[17:23] Horikita
    you have to go all-out from then on.
[17:26] Ayanokoji
    I see.
[17:27] Horikita
    I look forward to it.
[17:29] Horikita
    See you later.

[18:58] Karuizawa
    So? What is it?
[19:00] Karuizawa
    Did you remember what you wanted to tell me?
[19:03] Ayanokoji
    Slow down.
[19:04] Karuizawa
    Like I said earlier, I've got
    dinner with friends at seven.
[19:09] Karuizawa
    Get it?
[19:10] Ayanokoji
    You have plenty of time.
[19:14] Karuizawa
    This is creepy, okay?
[19:17] Karuizawa
    You've been totally
    wishy-washy since the café.
[19:21] Karuizawa
    Oh, right!
[19:23] Karuizawa
    And Sato-san is starting
    to ask questions about us.
[19:28] Ayanokoji
    Matsushita is asking questions about us, too.
[19:32] Karuizawa
    Huh? No way!
[19:34] Ayanokoji
    Matsushita's begun to
    suspect my real abilities.
[19:38] Ayanokoji
    She seems like the type to hide her
    own exceptional traits, as well.
[19:43] Karuizawa
    H-Hang on a minute.
[19:46] Karuizawa
    I can't keep up with all
    this new information.
[19:48] Karuizawa
    It feels like this is going
    in a really bad direction.
[19:51] Ayanokoji
    I don't think we have to worry
    about Sato and Matsushita.
[19:57] Karuizawa
    No, we totally do!
[19:59] Karuizawa
    If this gets around,
    it's going to mess up all my plans.
[20:04] Ayanokoji
    Is it?
[20:06] Karuizawa
    Even if I want to get a new boyfriend,
[20:10] Karuizawa
    no one's going to ask me out if they
    think I'm already with someone.
[20:17] Karuizawa
    I broke up with Hirata-kun, remember?
[20:19] Karuizawa
    So I'm looking for a new guy.
[20:21] Karuizawa
    Is that a problem?
[20:23] Ayanokoji
    Of course not.
[20:25] Karuizawa
    I mean, you're getting
    close to Shiina-san, too!
[20:28] Karuizawa
    And you've got stuff in
    common with her, unlike me!
[20:36] Karuizawa
    I'm leaving.
[20:39] Ayanokoji
    Kei.
[20:40] Karuizawa
    What?!
[20:42] Ayanokoji
    Feel free to ignore this
    if you don't like it.
[20:49] Ayanokoji
    Will you date me?
[20:50] Karuizawa
    Huh?
[20:52] Ayanokoji
    I'm asking if you'd be willing to date me.
[20:57] Karuizawa
    Um, but...
[20:59] Karuizawa
    I don't understand...
[21:04] Karuizawa
    what you're... talking... about?
[21:07] Karuizawa
    Wait, huh? What?!
[21:10] Karuizawa
    Y-You're joking, right?
[21:12] Karuizawa
    I thought you liked Shiina-san—
[21:14] Ayanokoji
    I just did that to see if
    you'd get jealous, I guess.
[21:19] Karuizawa
    S-So? What the heck?
[21:21] Karuizawa
    Why are you bringing this up now?
[21:23] Ayanokoji
    I wanted to prevent you from
    becoming someone else's girlfriend.
[21:29] Karuizawa
    So... Does that mean you...
[21:38] Karuizawa
    You like me?
[21:40] Ayanokoji
    Yes. I like you, Karuizawa Kei.
[21:51] Karuizawa
    I... I'm willing to date you.
[21:54] Ayanokoji
    Does that mean you like me, then?
[21:59] Karuizawa
    Y-You're going to make me say it?
[22:01] Ayanokoji
    Yes, I am.
[22:04] Karuizawa
    W-Well... I...
[22:07] Karuizawa
    I guess I... might like you, too.
[22:13] Karuizawa
    As much as I hate to admit it.
[22:16] Karuizawa
    Hey!
[22:19] Karuizawa
    A-Are you gonna kiss me or something?
[22:22] Ayanokoji
    No.
[22:24] Ayanokoji
    Not yet.
[22:25] Karuizawa
    N-Not yet?
[22:29] Ayanokoji
    This is enough for now, isn't it?
[22:34] Karuizawa
    Yeah... for now.
[22:40] Karuizawa
    Hey. Have you gotten a little taller?
[22:44] Ayanokoji
    Maybe I have.
[22:48] Ayanokoji
    Humans are creatures that learn and grow.
[22:52] Ayanokoji
    This romance is necessary
    for Karuizawa Kei to grow.
[22:57] Ayanokoji
    At the same time, I'll use
    Kei to learn about romance.
[23:03] Ayanokoji
    That's something I couldn't
    learn about in the White Room.
[23:06] Ayanokoji
    But once I'm done reading
    the textbook known as Kei,
[23:10] Ayanokoji
    I won't need it anymore.
[23:14] Ayanokoji
    Or maybe...
[23:16] Ayanokoji
    I'll find myself in a future
    where that's not the case.
[23:20] Ayanokoji
    Let's pray...
[23:26] Ayanokoji
    that in this moment,
    holding someone precious in my arms...
[23:33] Ayanokoji
    that I'm smiling.
