Our points went up!

Yes! Yes!

You think it's because of our test scores?

The study group brought everyone's scores up!

Oh, no, it's because of

Our homeroom teacher

but my classmates are all such good people.

That's why I want us all to
reach Class A together!

I am. I will be getting in, if you don't mind.

Morning, Ayanokoji-kun.

Of course not!

That probably is how she really feels.

Nope!

The provision of points to
first-years has been delayed.

Are you kidding?

Do we get some kind of compensation
for the school screwing up?

There's nothing that I can do.

The moment the problem is resolved,
the points will be distributed.

I'm just going to say it

Huh?

Wait, um... Won't it be better
if I'm not here, then?

But I don't know anything about dating.

I found this in my locker yesterday.

I don't feel the same way.

And I don't know how to turn the
person down without hurting them.

So I was wondering if you might
pretend to be my boyfriend... and...

That old cliché, huh?

Please!

Ichinose-san... who is this?

U-Um, sorry, Chihiro-chan...
I brought someone you don't know.

This is Ayanokoji-kun from Class D.

Is he... your boyfriend?

Ayanokoji-kun is... He's my—

to someone isn't an easy thing.

You spend every day in anguish,
yet you still can't do it.

The words "I love you" hang in your throat,

a proper answer, don't you?

[07:34] ichi
I was just trying to run away.
[07:36] ichi
That was wrong, wasn't it?

We said we'd try to go back
to normal tomorrow...

I wonder if we'll manage it.

That's up to you two, I guess.

Sorry for getting you wrapped

I'm telling you, it wasn't like that!

There were three of them!

Yeah...
[08:34] aya
What's all this?
[08:35] kushi
Ayanokoji-kun... I think something
bad might have happened.
[08:40] cha
Basketball club members from Class C
[08:41] cha
have filed a complaint with
the school against Sudo.
[08:45] cha
They claim that after practice,
Sudo attacked and injured them
[08:48] cha
with no apparent provocation.
[08:50] sudo
It was self-defense! Self-defense!
[08:53] sudo
They were jealous because I became
a regular, so they picked a fight!
[08:57] cha
There's no evidence of that.
[08:59] cha
Though, if there was a witness,
it might be a different story.
[09:03] kushi
Everyone!
[09:04] kushi
Did anyone happen to see Sudo-kun's fight?
Does anyone know anything about it?
[09:18] roku
Perhaps you'd have been better off
getting expelled, Red Hair-kun.
[09:23] roku
Your presence is hardly beautiful.
[09:27] hira
Sudo-kun! Don't!
[09:29] cha
In one week's time,
[09:31] cha
there will be a discussion with Class C,
with the student council in attendance.
[09:36] cha
Depending on how it turns out,
there may be a forfeiture of points,

as well as disciplinary measures for Sudo.

off if he had been expelled.

I hear you...
[11:12] hori
Do you agree with them?
[11:14] hori
That Sudo-kun should have been expelled.

I don't have an opinion.
[11:20] aya
What do you think,
[11:21] aya
as one of the people who helped him?
[11:24] aya
At the moment, we have zero points.
[11:26] aya
Even if we had been penalized
for losing someone to expulsion,
[11:29] aya
we couldn't have lost any more.
[11:32] aya
Yeah, sure, I guess.
[11:35] hori
What? I don't like the way you said that.
[11:38] aya
You never know when we might be
experiencing losses or gains we can't see.
[11:42] hori
What does that mean?
[11:43] aya
There might be negative point values
we're gaining that we just aren't shown.
[11:48] aya
Demerits for an expulsion might not
hit us now, but rather, in the future.
[11:55] aya
For instance, "no expulsions" might be
a condition for ascending to Class A.
[12:02] hori
You're splitting hairs.
[12:04] aya
We don't know how the school system works.
[12:08] aya
If you want to reach Class A,
[12:10] aya
you should eliminate any threats
to that goal you can conceive of.
[12:15] aya
Besides, Sudo's athletic, and he
has good standing in his club.

He might come in handy—

[13:07] kushi
Let's do our best together.
[13:09] kushi
But if we're looking for witnesses...
[13:12] kushi
Sudo-kun himself should probably
stay out of it, right?
[13:15] aya
Yeah, it wouldn't look good to get
the interested party involved.
[13:19] kushi
Yeah...
[13:21] kushi
Okay. I'll tell Sudo-kun about that myself.
[13:25] kushi
See you after class, okay?

Sudo might be lying, too.

they didn't find anything.

We're soliciting information through
the class's online message board...
[14:56] ichi
We have an email already.
[14:57] kan
What does it say?
SIGN Regarding what you posted on the message board, I don't know anything about the other two, but I do know Ishizaki Daichi. We went to school in the same area during middle school. During that time, Ishizaki was known as a real troublemaker. He apparently threatened students at other schools and shook them down constantly. He was actually good in a fight, too, so everyone was afraid of him. We weren't at the same school so I don't know all the details, but I heard rumors that he even struck upperclassmen and teachers. A friend of mine was injured in one of these incidents. He's an all-brawn, no-brains punk and a really bad character. I wonder how a delinquent like him even got into this school.
[15:01] ichi
Apparently one of the boys
Sudo-kun fought with,
[15:03] ichi
Ishizaki-kun, was pretty
wild in middle school.
[15:07] kushi
It says he was good in a fight, too,
and everyone in the area was afraid of him.
[15:12] kan
If the other two are in the basketball
club, they're probably pretty strong.
[15:15] kan
It doesn't add up that
[15:17] kan
Sudo would be able to beat up
all three without taking a hit.
[15:20] ichi
That's true...
[15:21] kan
It's possible that they
wanted him to beat them up.
[15:24] kan
If they did this to set Sudo up,
things would make a lot more sense.
[15:29] ichi
I agree.
[15:31] ichi
Anyway, I should pay the one
who sent the information...
[15:33] ichi
Oh, it's anonymous.
[15:35] ichi
I wonder how I'll send them the points.
[15:38] aya
I know how.

In class, when Kushida-san
made her plea for aid,

most everyone turned their attention on her,

got some useful info...

or not is a trivial detail.

Kushida.
[19:17] kushi
There's something I've been wondering.
[19:20] kushi
Do you understand what
Horikita-san was talking about?
[19:28] aya
Even if what happened was self-defense,
that's not the root of the problem.
[19:36] aya
Sudo is always talking trash and lashing out.
[19:41] aya
He acts in a way that
inevitably earns resentment.
[19:44] aya
He makes a terrible impression
on those around him.
[19:48] aya
Let's say that a murder takes place.
[19:50] aya
There are two suspects.
[19:52] aya
One has killed in the past.
[19:55] aya
The other is a virtuous, law-abiding citizen.
[19:59] aya
Which would you believe?
[20:02] kushi
The law-abiding citizen, I guess.
[20:05] aya
They might not actually be so.
[20:08] aya
But with so little evidence to go on,
[20:11] aya
people have to make decisions
based on what they have.
[20:14] kushi
You're saying Sudo-kun brought this on
himself with his history and behavior?
[20:20] aya
And Sudo doesn't feel
he's done anything wrong.
[20:24] aya
That may be why Horikita
is being so uncooperative.
[20:27] kushi
But I still think we need to say something.
[20:31] kushi
That's what it means to be friends.
[20:34] aya
You should follow through
on what you feel is right.
[20:37] aya
I don't think it's wrong to do that.
[20:40] kushi
Right.
[20:42] kushi
But I guess you really do know
everything about Horikita-san, huh?
