***SIGN*** The Merman Prince
**[00:03] (Flashback) MISORA**
*The Merman Prince*.
**[00:06] (Flashback) MISORA**
"Once upon a time, the mermen lived
at the bottom of a deep, deep ocean."
**[00:15] (Flashback) MISORA**
"This is the story of a tiny
prince of the merfolk kingdom."
**[00:28] (Flashback) MISORA**
"At the end of his long, long journey,
**[00:31] (Flashback) ---**
having finally caught up to the girl's ship,
**[00:35] (Flashback) ---**
the prince gathered his strength
and swam up beside it."
***SIGN*** Mashiki
**[00:44] (Flashback) MISORA**
"'Don't cry anymore. I'm here to rescue
you,' said the prince to the girl."
**[00:51] (Flashback) MISORA**
"'Your eyes glitter like
coral. They're beautiful.'"
**[00:58] (Flashback) MISORA**
"The girl answered, 'Where is the coral?'"
**[01:04] (Flashback) MISORA**
"'At the bottom of the blue sea.'"
**[01:08] (Flashback) MISORA**
"'I'd like to see it.'"
**[01:11] (Flashback) MISORA**
"'Then come with me.'"
**[01:16] (Flashback) MISORA**
It's Mom!
**[01:36] (Flashback) MISORA**
Bye-bye.
**[01:54] (Flashback) MISHIMA**
Mashiki Mi...
**[01:57] (Flashback) MIHARU**
I'm Mashiki Miharu.
**[02:04] (Flashback) MISHIMA**
Mashiki...
***SIGN*** Mashiki Mi
**[02:09] (Flashback) MISHIMA**
Miharu...
***SIGN*** "May"
**[04:10] MISHIMA**
Towa, wake up.
**[04:13] HONDA**
One more hour.
**[04:15] MISHIMA**
You'll be late.
**[04:27] MISHIMA**
Thanks for waiting.
**[04:29] HONDA**
I don't get it.
**[04:31] HONDA**
What's okay, and what isn't?
**[04:33] MISHIMA**
This again?
**[04:34] HONDA**
Well, yeah.
**[04:36] MISHIMA**
What you did was totally sexual harassment.
**[04:38] HONDA**
It wasn't sexual harassment.
**[04:40] HONDA**
And shojo manga are pretty racy.
**[04:43] HONDA**
So dirty.
**[04:45] MISHIMA**
Stop that.
**[04:45] HONDA**
Ow.
**[04:46] HONDA**
Jeez.
**[04:48] MISHIMA**
Hey, we'd better get going.
**[04:49] MIKI**
Huh, even boys read these
kinds of things these days?
**[04:53] MIKI**
Don't stand here reading for too long.
**[04:58] BOTH**
Okay.
**[05:01] MIKI**
Thank you.
**[05:05] MIKI**
Ah, to be young.
**[05:13] MISHIMA**
Are you okay?
**[05:15] HONDA**
What do you mean?
**[05:16] MISHIMA**
Don't bother that class rep too much.
**[05:20] HONDA**
Why not?
**[05:21] MISHIMA**
She doesn't like it, right?
**[05:24] HONDA**
What?
**[05:25] HONDA**
Don't girls mean "more" when they say "no?"
**[05:28] MISHIMA**
Yeah, yeah.
**[05:30] MISHIMA**
It's not as if that attitude
is anything new for you.
**[05:35] MISHIMA**
Huh?
**[05:38] HONDA**
It's the student council president.
**[05:40] MISHIMA**
Yeah.
**[05:42] MISHIMA**
Kisaki.
**[05:46] HONDA**
They must be together.
**[05:47] MISHIMA**
What? Really?
**[05:52] HONDA**
God, you don't know anything.
**[05:55] HONDA**
See you later.
**[06:21] HONDA**
Class rep!
**[06:24] HONDA**
You're making that face again.
**[06:27] HONDA**
You're a hundred times cuter when you smile.
**[06:30] HONDA**
Come on, smile.
**[06:38] HONDA**
Huh?
**[06:39] HONDA**
Hey, wait.
**[06:41] HONDA**
Class rep.
**[06:43] GIRL**
Honda never quits.
**[06:48] HONDA**
You're still mad?
**[06:51] HONDA**
I'm sorry. I didn't think you'd be that mad.
**[06:56] HONDA**
I guess I didn't realize what I was doing.
**[07:00] MAMI**
You did that without realizing it?
**[07:03] MAMI**
It's obscene.
**[07:04] HONDA**
Obscene?
**[07:10] MAMI**
Are you enjoying yourself?
**[07:12] HONDA**
What?
**[07:15] MAMI**
I really am bothered by this.
**[07:17] MAMI**
I appreciate you not saying
anything about "that," though.
**[07:22] HONDA**
"That?"
**[07:25] HONDA**
Oh, you mean the comics?
**[07:28] HONDA**
I won't tell anyone.
**[07:31] HONDA**
Sorry.
**[07:34] HONDA**
But I'm not that loose-lipped.
**[07:37] MAMI**
You don't seem that way.
**[07:41] MAMI**
Just leave me alone.
**[07:47] MAMI**
The notebooks.
**[07:48] HONDA**
Oh, it's fine.
**[07:50] HONDA**
You can count on me to do class-rep stuff.
**[07:54] MAMI**
Thanks.
**[07:58] HONDA**
It's only natural.
**[08:00] HONDA**
When a frail girl is in trouble,
it's a man's job to save her.
**[08:05] HONDA**
That's why I wish you'd rely
on me more. Just kid—
**[08:11] HONDA**
Huh?
***SIGN*** Library
***SIGN*** Book Return
**[08:23] MIHARU**
So nothing's changed.
**[08:25] MAMI**
It's worse than that.
**[08:27] MAMI**
Now that he has dirt on me, he's escalating.
**[08:31] MIHARU**
Dirt?
**[08:32] MIHARU**
But he's keeping his word, right?
**[08:35] MAMI**
Yeah, but maybe he's saving it for something.
**[08:40] MIHARU**
Saving it?
**[08:41] MAMI**
For when he really needs it.
**[08:45] MIHARU**
When would that be?
**[08:47] MAMI**
Well...
**[08:51] MIHARU**
It's almost like a manga.
**[08:53] MIHARU**
The most popular boy in the class
suddenly starts talking to you one day.
**[08:58] MIHARU**
When you really need his help, he
might gallantly come to save the day.
**[09:03] MAMI**
That's fine in manga.
**[09:05] MAMI**
Besides, I like intellectual boys.
***SIGN*** Boys in Glasses 1
**[09:13] MIHARU**
Want to try talking to Honda-kun's
friend I told you about?
**[09:17] MAMI**
The guy in class 1?
**[09:19] MIHARU**
Yeah.
**[09:20] MIHARU**
He'd probably be willing to listen.
**[09:24] MIHARU**
He might have some knowledge to share.
**[09:29] MISHIMA**
Huh?
**[09:30] MIHARU**
Hello.
**[09:32] MISHIMA**
*What?*
**[09:55] TEACHER**
Hey, Mishima!
**[09:57] MISHIMA**
Sorry!
**[10:01] (Flashback) MIHARU**
Mishima-kun.
**[10:03] (Flashback) MIHARU**
Can I meet you after practice?
**[10:06] (Flashback) MISHIMA**
What?
**[10:08] (Flashback) MIHARU**
I need to talk to you.
**[10:13] (Flashback) MISHIMA**
O-Okay.
**[10:15] TEACHER**
Mishima!
**[10:47] MISHIMA**
Sorry I'm late.
**[10:49] MIHARU**
It's fine. We just got here.
**[10:53] MIHARU**
Oh.
**[10:59] MIHARU**
This is Mihashi Mami-san of class 2.
**[11:01] MIHARU**
This is Mishima-kun.
**[11:03] MAMI**
Nice to meet you.
**[11:04] MISHIMA**
N-Nice to meet you.
**[11:06] MISHIMA**
Huh? What?
**[11:10] MIHARU**
What?
**[11:12] MIHARU**
It's fine.
**[11:14] MIHARU**
Um...
**[11:15] MISHIMA**
Yes?!
**[11:16] MIHARU**
There's actually something we
wanted to get your advice on.
**[11:21] MISHIMA**
Advice?
**[11:29] MISHIMA**
I see.
**[11:33] MAMI**
I'm sorry.
**[11:35] MISHIMA**
Oh, no. It's fine.
**[11:42] MISHIMA**
Oh, sorry.
**[11:45] MIHARU**
I don't think Honda-kun is a bad person.
**[11:49] MIHARU**
Do you think you could talk to him?
**[11:53] MISHIMA**
Uh, in other words...
**[11:54] MAMI**
I'd like him to leave me alone.
**[11:57] MISHIMA**
Oh.
**[11:58] MISHIMA**
Uh, he probably doesn't mean any harm.
**[12:03] MISHIMA**
He's just always had trouble with personal
space, whether they're girls or not.
**[12:12] MAMI**
I understand that, but...
**[12:16] ---**
I don't...
**[12:49] MIHARU**
Mishima-kun!
**[12:53] MISHIMA**
Mashiki?
**[12:57] MISHIMA**
What's wrong?
**[13:02] MIHARU**
Thanks for today.
**[13:06] MIHARU**
Sorry for suddenly asking you for advice.
**[13:09] MISHIMA**
It's totally fine.
**[13:11] MISHIMA**
Actually, I haven't done
anything for you yet.
**[13:17] MIHARU**
I knew you'd be able to help.
**[13:20] MISHIMA**
What? Why?
**[13:26] MIHARU**
I just did.
**[13:34] MIHARU**
Mishima-kun, you're sweating.
**[13:36] MISHIMA**
O-Oh, I'm fine.
**[13:42] MIHARU**
Well, bye.
**[14:00] HONDA**
Excuse the intrusion!
**[14:12] AKIRA**
Towa, you came again.
**[14:14] HONDA**
Hey. I'll help you make
progress in your game later.
**[14:16] AKIRA**
All right.
**[14:23] HONDA**
Hey, I'm here.
**[14:25] HONDA**
Huh?
**[14:30] MISHIMA**
Towa, we need to talk.
**[14:32] HONDA**
What?
**[14:38] HONDA**
So, what'd you want to talk about?
**[14:43] MISHIMA**
It's about Mihashi-san.
**[14:46] MISHIMA**
Hey.
**[14:47] HONDA**
Sorry.
**[14:48] HONDA**
You just scared me, since you
suddenly brought her up.
**[14:52] HONDA**
Anyway, why?
**[14:53] MISHIMA**
I talked to her today.
**[14:55] HONDA**
What? About what?
**[14:59] MISHIMA**
She said you're really bothering her.
**[15:03] HONDA**
What?
**[15:09] HONDA**
Seriously?
**[15:10] MISHIMA**
Seriously.
**[15:12] MISHIMA**
I'm sure that stuff's just like saying
hello to you, but leave Mihashi alone.
**[15:18] MISHIMA**
She really doesn't like it.
**[15:25] MISHIMA**
Towa?
**[15:27] MISHIMA**
What? Do you...
**[15:31] MISHIMA**
really like her?
**[15:36] MISHIMA**
In that case, you should've
taken a more proper approach.
**[15:39] MISHIMA**
To be honest, she's not getting it at all.
**[15:41] HONDA**
I did tell her. Right to her face.
**[15:44] HONDA**
That she's cute. That I like her.
**[15:47] MISHIMA**
That just seems even more fake.
**[15:50] MISHIMA**
I mean, you do seem superficial.
**[15:56] HONDA**
Better than being someone like
you who never says anything.
**[15:59] MISHIMA**
What?
**[16:00] HONDA**
You couldn't even say hello to Miharu-chan,
much less tell her she's cute.
**[16:03] MISHIMA**
I told you. Mashiki's not like that.
**[16:05] HONDA**
If you keep acting like this,
you'll miss your chance.
**[16:08] MISHIMA**
I told you! It's not like
that, you superficial idiot!
**[16:10] HONDA**
What? Well, you're a meathead!
**[16:11] MISHIMA**
You're always horny!
**[16:13] HONDA**
You're a closet pervert!
**[16:14] MISHIMA**
What?
**[16:17] HONDA**
You bastard! Don't mess with me!
**[16:18] MISHIMA**
You never let anything go!
**[16:21] AKIRA**
Shut up!
**[16:38] MISHIMA**
Aki—
**[16:40] AKIRA**
Mom, Haruki's gay!
**[16:56] HONDA**
Yeah, it's fine.
**[17:00] ---**
I know.
**[17:04] HONDA**
Bye.
**[17:15] MISHIMA**
What'd your mom say?
**[17:17] HONDA**
Nothing, really.
**[17:20] HONDA**
She's working tonight.
**[17:24] HONDA**
Could've just called them.
**[17:34] HONDA**
Hey.
**[17:35] MISHIMA**
Huh?
**[17:37] HONDA**
Never mind.
**[17:38] MISHIMA**
What?
**[17:41] HONDA**
Was the class rep mad?
**[17:44] MISHIMA**
She didn't seem mad.
**[17:47] HONDA**
Really?
**[17:51] HONDA**
We're totally different, aren't we?
**[17:54] MISHIMA**
Yeah.
**[17:56] HONDA**
Think we're not a good match?
**[17:57] MISHIMA**
Who knows?
**[17:58] HONDA**
You're supposed to say we are.
**[18:00] HONDA**
You're a shitty friend.
**[18:01] MISHIMA**
But I really don't know.
**[18:05] HONDA**
I like how the class rep's
expressions change so quickly.
**[18:12] HONDA**
She'll seem bored, but then she'll get mad.
**[18:16] HONDA**
She smiles uncomfortably.
**[18:20] HONDA**
Sometimes she's nice.
**[18:21] HONDA**
Other times she's scary.
**[18:26] HONDA**
But then...
**[18:36] HONDA**
I like all girls,
**[18:42] ---**
but there's something special
**[18:47] ---**
about the class rep.
**[18:57] MISHIMA**
Then I'll support you.
**[19:20] MISHIMA**
Anyway, he just wants to be
friends with Mihashi-san.
**[19:28] MISHIMA**
But he sometimes gets ahead of himself,
**[19:30] ---**
so if he does something you
don't like, tell him directly.
**[19:33] MISHIMA**
No need to hold back.
**[19:35] HONDA**
I'm counting on you.
**[19:38] MISHIMA**
I know he's superficial and sloppy,
**[19:42] ---**
but he has a lot of good qualities, too.
**[19:44] MISHIMA**
I recommend him as a friend.
**[19:54] MAMI**
Stop calling me "class rep" so loudly.
**[20:00] HONDA**
Okay.
**[20:01] MAMI**
No more excessive touching.
**[20:04] MAMI**
I don't like it.
**[20:05] HONDA**
Got it.
**[20:08] MAMI**
Don't bother me if you don't need anything.
**[20:10] HONDA**
What? You're no fun.
**[20:12] MISHIMA**
Towa.
**[20:18] HONDA**
Do you really hate me that much?
**[20:24] MAMI**
It's not that.
**[20:27] MAMI**
You really don't get it?
**[20:34] MAMI**
Never mind.
**[20:35] HONDA**
What?
**[20:36] MAMI**
I said never mind.
**[20:38] MAMI**
This conversation is over.
**[21:11] MIHARU**
That's great. Well, I'm going to go.
**[21:14] MAMI**
What?
**[21:19] MISHIMA**
Ow. What—
**[21:26] MISHIMA**
Mashiki!
**[21:27] MIHARU**
Huh?
**[21:29] MISHIMA**
Um, want to walk to school together?
**[21:34] MISHIMA**
I mean, the four of us.
**[21:37] HONDA**
The four of us?
**[21:42] MIHARU**
Okay.
**[21:51] SAKAMOTO**
You're not working.
**[21:53] SAKAMOTO**
What are you smiling about?
**[21:55] MIKI**
Nothing.
**[21:58] MIKI**
I just thought it was nice.
