***SIGN*** 32nd Aozora Festival
**[00:12] MAMI**
H-Have you decided?
***SIGN*** Helper
**[00:21] HONDA**
Don't act so depressed.
**[00:23] MISHIMA**
I'm not depressed.
**[00:24] HONDA**
You're so easy to read.
**[00:26] HONDA**
Ow!
**[00:27] HONDA**
You're taking it out on me?
**[00:31] HONDA**
Mashiki's not here, huh?
**[00:33] MISHIMA**
Yeah.
**[00:34] HONDA**
That's unfortunate for you.
It's the day of the festival.
**[00:37] HONDA**
Does she have a cold or something?
**[00:39] MISHIMA**
A cold?
**[00:43] (Flashback) MISHIMA**
Mashiki, are you...
**[00:47] (Flashback) MISHIMA**
Uh, Mashiki?
**[00:50] (Flashback) MISHIMA**
Is something—
**[00:51] (Flashback) MIHARU**
I'm sorry.
**[00:53] (Flashback) MISHIMA**
What?
**[01:00] MISHIMA**
I might've done it this time.
**[01:02] HONDA**
You...!
**[01:03] HONDA**
You mean to Mashiki?
**[01:06] MISHIMA**
Huh?
**[01:07] HONDA**
You didn't tell me about that.
**[01:09] HONDA**
As another dude, I understand how you feel,
**[01:12] ---**
but you're not supposed to
do that without consent.
**[01:14] MISHIMA**
What?
**[01:17] MISHIMA**
No, you idiot! What were you thinking of?
**[01:21] HONDA**
So, what did you do?
**[01:23] MISHIMA**
I think she's avoiding me.
**[01:26] HONDA**
Because you confessed your feelings to her?
**[01:28] MISHIMA**
I... didn't tell her.
**[01:33] MISHIMA**
Ow!
**[01:34] SAKURAKOJI**
That's enough.
**[01:37] SAKURAKOJI**
You guys seem rather close.
**[01:39] MISHIMA**
Sorry.
**[01:42] SAKURAKOJI**
There's nothing wrong with lively.
**[01:44] SAKURAKOJI**
You've been helping us out a lot.
**[01:46] SAKURAKOJI**
We appreciate it.
**[01:47] HONDA**
Nice, Senpai. I knew you'd understand.
**[01:50] SAKURAKOJI**
Hey, don't let it get to your head.
**[01:52] HONDA**
Whoops.
***SIGN*** Mihashi Mami
***SIGN*** Mihashi
***SIGN*** Where are you? It's almost time for your shift.
**[01:57] MISHIMA**
Is it your shift?
**[01:58] HONDA**
Yeah. I'll have someone else cover for me.
**[02:00] MISHIMA**
It's fine. It's nearly
time for my shift, too.
**[02:06] BOTH**
Excuse us.
**[02:16] SAKURAKOJI**
I'm jealous of everything those
first-years have going on.
**[02:20] SAKURAKOJI**
It's almost heartwarming.
**[02:23] NAKAJIMA**
I don't think so.
**[02:25] SAKURAKOJI**
What?
**[02:28] NAKAJIMA**
Sometimes people's feelings
never amount to anything.
**[02:42] (Flashback) WAKA**
Brother.
**[02:45] (Flashback) WAKA**
Hurry.
**[02:47] (Flashback) NAKAJIMA**
You'll trip.
**[02:48] (Flashback) WAKA**
What?
**[02:51] (Flashback) NAKAJIMA**
What did I just say?
**[02:53] (Flashback) WAKA**
Sorry.
**[02:54] (Flashback) NAKAJIM**
Once you're in high school,
you'll have to pull yourself together.
**[02:57] (Flashback) WAKA**
Okay.
***SIGN*** New Student Information
***SIGN*** Aokisora High School
**[03:00] (Flashback) WAKA**
We'll be attending the same
school starting this spring.
**[03:03] (Flashback) NAKAJIMA**
Yeah.
**[03:11] (Flashback) NAKAJIMA**
What is it?
**[03:11] (Flashback) WAKA**
It's frozen.
**[03:13] (Flashback) WAKA**
Can we cross it?
**[03:15] (Flashback) NAKAJIMA**
It's dangerous.
**[03:16] (Flashback) NAKAJIMA**
Apparently there's a
story behind this bridge.
**[03:19] (Flashback) WAKA**
What?
**[03:23] (Flashback) WAKA**
Sheesh.
**[03:24] (Flashback) NAKAJIMA**
There's a weird rumor surrounding it.
**[03:26] (Flashback) NAKAJIMA**
At my school, they call
it "The Lovers' Bridge."
**[03:31] (Flashback) WAKA**
"The Lovers' Bridge?"
**[03:34] (Flashback) WAKA**
That's nice.
**[03:36] (Flashback) NAKAJIMA**
You think so?
***SIGN*** "October"
***SIGN*** Student Council Elections
***SIGN*** Grab the future
***SIGN*** with your hand!!
**[05:31] HONDA**
Student council elections, huh?
**[05:33] HONDA**
Well, not that it concerns me.
**[05:37] HONDA**
Watching Nakajima-senpai makes being on the
student council seem like a lot of work.
**[05:41] HONDA**
I wouldn't do it even if they asked me to.
**[05:43] HONDA**
Actually, I can never say "no" to people.
**[05:49] HONDA**
Hey! Are you listening to...
***SIGN*** Student Council Election
**[06:21] BOY**
Did everyone get one?
**[06:23] GIRL**
Who didn't get one?
**[06:29] GIRL**
Uh, does anyone have any questions?
***SIGN*** Current student council members will complete their terms on 12/15. Incoming members should be trained between 12/8 – 12/15.
**[06:51] NAKAJIMA**
Come in.
**[06:53] WAKA**
Excuse the intrusion.
**[06:55] WAKA**
Ugh, it's a mess.
**[06:58] WAKA**
This always happens when you're busy.
**[07:02] WAKA**
Are you listening?
**[07:04] NAKAJIMA**
You can leave them there.
**[07:06] NAKAJIMA**
I won't be able to find them later.
**[07:09] WAKA**
Can you find anything now?
**[07:12] WAKA**
You're so weird.
**[07:13] NAKAJIMA**
Sorry I'm weird. Don't touch anything.
**[07:16] WAKA**
Okay. Sakurakoji-senpai is amazing.
**[07:21] WAKA**
I can't believe he can
handle being around you.
**[07:24] NAKAJIMA**
Yeah, I can't manage without him.
**[07:27] WAKA**
Seriously.
**[07:28] WAKA**
You should be thanking
me and Sakurakoji-senpai.
**[07:33] NAKAJIMA**
Not you, Waka.
**[07:34] WAKA**
You're so mean.
**[07:42] WAKA**
Are you busy preparing for the election?
**[07:46] NAKAJIMA**
More or less.
**[07:48] NAKAJIMA**
Preparing for my successor takes up more
of my time than the actual election.
**[07:52] NAKAJIMA**
I need to make sure the next president
doesn't have any problems.
**[07:55] WAKA**
You're a perfect president, aren't you?
**[07:59] WAKA**
You really are amazing.
**[08:01] WAKA**
I'm so proud of you, Brother.
**[08:04] NAKAJIMA**
"Brother," huh?
**[08:07] SAKURAKOJI**
Hey.
**[08:09] WAKA**
Hello. Thanks for all your help.
**[08:14] SAKURAKOJI**
It's fine.
**[08:18] SAKURAKOJI**
Are you here to see Mikado? Should I leave?
**[08:20] WAKA**
No, I just thought we could go home
together if he was finishing soon.
**[08:26] NAKAJIMA**
Sorry. I won't be finished
for a while longer.
**[08:28] WAKA**
I see. Well, I did want
to ask you something.
**[08:31] NAKAJIMA**
Okay. I'll call you when I get home.
**[08:34] WAKA**
Okay. See you later, then.
**[08:41] WAKA**
Bye, Sakurakoji-senpai.
**[08:49] WAKA**
Goodbye.
**[08:55] SAKURAKOJI**
She's a nice girl.
**[08:57] NAKAJIMA**
Yeah.
**[08:58] SAKURAKOJI**
Apparently her class loves her
and puts her on a pedestal.
**[09:02] SAKURAKOJI**
I wonder what it's like.
**[09:04] NAKAJIMA**
It probably puts pressure on her.
**[09:06] SAKURAKOJI**
Maybe. She's probably relieved to have you.
**[09:12] NAKAJIMA**
I hope so.
***SIGN*** You can do it!
**[09:39] SAKURAKOJI**
Aren't you forgetting something?
***SIGN*** New Student Information
***SIGN*** Kisaki Waka
***SIGN*** Nakajima
***SIGN*** Sorry, I'm going to be late tonight. We'll talk another time.
**[11:00] (Flashback) WAKA**
I'm proud of you, Brother.
**[11:10] MAMI**
It's as though they're back to spring again.
**[11:14] HONDA**
Huh?
**[11:15] MAMI**
Mashiki-san and Mishima-kun.
**[11:16] HONDA**
Oh.
**[11:19] MAMI**
Things haven't changed?
**[11:21] HONDA**
Nope. Did Mashiki say anything to you?
**[11:27] HONDA**
I see. You think it's my fault
for getting involved like that?
**[11:33] MAMI**
She's the only one who knows the truth.
**[11:38] HONDA**
Class rep, that sounded kinda cool.
**[11:41] MAMI**
Be serious.
**[11:43] HONDA**
Okay, okay. But don't
you want it to work out?
**[11:48] HONDA**
Even if it means being nosy.
**[11:49] MAMI**
It's not nosy. I feel the same way.
**[11:54] MAMI**
So cheer up.
**[11:56] MAMI**
Let's finish this.
**[11:59] HONDA**
I might cheer up if you
go on a date with me.
**[12:03] MAMI**
Don't get ahead of yourself.
**[12:04] HONDA**
That was close.
***SIGN*** Student Council Room
**[12:25] SAKURAKOJI**
Did Mikado ask you to come?
**[12:27] MISHIMA**
Oh, no.
**[12:28] SAKURAKOJI**
I'm locking up.
**[12:30] MISHIMA**
Uh, I was just wondering if
I could help with anything.
**[12:34] SAKURAKOJI**
Well, the biggest thing you
could do to help Mikado
**[12:39] ---**
would be to run in the election.
**[12:41] MISHIMA**
Me? I can't.
**[12:44] MISHIMA**
Kisaki's the best candidate in my class.
**[12:46] SAKURAKOJI**
Kisaki?
**[12:48] SAKURAKOJI**
She's in your class, huh?
**[12:52] MISHIMA**
I don't know how she feels about it,
**[12:54] ---**
but the election officials are
trying really hard to convince her.
**[12:58] MISHIMA**
And there's Nakajima-senpai.
**[13:01] MISHIMA**
The two of them are...
**[13:03] MISHIMA**
Well, they're... together, right?
**[13:07] SAKURAKOJI**
What?
**[13:08] SAKURAKOJI**
Oh. Oh...
**[13:11] SAKURAKOJI**
Is that how it seems to you?
**[13:13] MISHIMA**
Well, yeah.
**[13:15] SAKURAKOJI**
Of course it does.
**[13:17] SAKURAKOJI**
You're right.
**[13:19] MISHIMA**
What?
**[13:22] GIRL**
Please, I'm begging you!
**[13:24] WAKA**
I'm sorry.
**[13:26] GIRL**
Kisaki-san, you're the perfect candidate.
**[13:28] GIRL**
Aren't you and Nakajima-senpai close?
**[13:31] WAKA**
I'm shy. I couldn't run in an election.
**[13:36] GIRL**
Really? That's too bad.
**[13:39] GIRL**
Well, I can't force you to do it.
**[13:42] WAKA**
I'm sorry.
**[13:44] GIRL**
No, I'm sorry, too.
**[13:46] GIRL**
I just thought if you were elected,
**[13:48] ---**
Nakajima-senpai could
leave with peace of mind.
**[13:51] GIRL**
Besides, you won't get to
see each other anymore.
**[13:53] WAKA**
What?
**[14:04] WAKA**
Brother!
**[14:43] NAKAJIMA**
I don't know who told you,
**[14:46] ---**
but I should've told them
not to say anything.
**[14:49] WAKA**
Why?
**[14:50] WAKA**
Why didn't you say anything?
**[14:53] WAKA**
This is important.
**[14:55] NAKAJIMA**
Sorry.
**[14:56] WAKA**
I'm not asking you to apologize.
**[14:59] WAKA**
Hokkaido...
**[15:01] WAKA**
Are you moving out?
**[15:04] NAKAJIMA**
I always intended to.
**[15:08] WAKA**
You can't live in Tokyo? No matter what?
**[15:11] WAKA**
We won't be able to see each other.
**[15:13] WAKA**
I won't be able to visit you at your house.
**[15:15] WAKA**
We won't be able to talk about our worries
**[15:16] ---**
or buy snacks and eat them together anymore.
**[15:20] WAKA**
I don't want that.
**[15:23] WAKA**
Stay with me.
**[15:29] NAKAJIMA**
I wish I could stay, too.
**[15:32] NAKAJIMA**
I've watched you this whole time.
**[15:34] NAKAJIMA**
I stood by your side and protected you.
**[15:36] NAKAJIMA**
But you don't understand.
**[15:38] WAKA**
Brother?
**[15:39] NAKAJIMA**
No!
**[15:40] NAKAJIMA**
I'm not your brother.
**[15:43] NAKAJIMA**
I can't see you that way
anymore! I've always...
**[16:00] NAKAJIMA**
I love you.
**[16:51] MISHIMA**
Are you okay?
**[16:54] NAKAJIMA**
Oh, yeah. I just didn't get enough sleep.
**[16:58] MISHIMA**
Not enough sleep?
**[16:59] NAKAJIMA**
Don't you have practice?
**[17:01] NAKAJIMA**
Thanks. You can go now.
**[17:04] MISHIMA**
I'm worried about you.
**[17:06] MISHIMA**
I don't know if I'm being
helpful, but I'll do my best.
**[17:12] NAKAJIMA**
I'm sure things would work out
if I were as honest as you.
**[17:16] MISHIMA**
What?
**[17:18] NAKAJIMA**
Have you heard about that bridge?
**[17:20] MISHIMA**
Heard what?
**[17:22] NAKAJIMA**
When I was a first-year, there
was a rumor going around.
**[17:26] NAKAJIMA**
If a boy and a girl crossed
the bridge together at dusk,
**[17:29] ---**
they'd be together forever.
**[17:32] NAKAJIMA**
It was just a rumor,
**[17:34] ---**
but if I were as honest as you,
God might've smiled on me.
**[17:40] MISHIMA**
You don't believe the rumor?
**[17:44] NAKAJIMA**
God abandoned me long ago.
**[18:01] MISHIMA**
Kisaki.
**[18:04] WAKA**
Mishima-kun.
**[18:09] MISHIMA**
Thanks for the food.
**[18:10] MISHIMA**
Actually, are you sure?
**[18:13] WAKA**
There's no need for restraint. Go ahead.
**[18:15] MISHIMA**
Thanks.
**[18:23] MISHIMA**
Uh, sorry I got in the way.
**[18:27] WAKA**
In the way?
**[18:28] MISHIMA**
Oh, um...
**[18:30] WAKA**
You're not in the way.
**[18:31] WAKA**
You're helping, right?
**[18:33] MISHIMA**
What? Uh, yeah. Sometimes.
**[18:37] WAKA**
I'm sure he appreciates it.
He's busy right now.
**[18:41] MISHIMA**
Yeah, he is.
**[18:43] MISHIMA**
You mean with the election
and entrance exams?
**[18:45] WAKA**
I'm not sure.
**[18:48] ---**
He doesn't tell me much
about that kind of thing.
**[18:55] MISHIMA**
He's always perfect.
**[18:58] MISHIMA**
He seems like someone who
keeps his feelings hidden.
**[19:01] MISHIMA**
If he ever explodes, it would have to be
something really big that sets him off.
**[19:07] MISHIMA**
Oh, sorry.
**[19:08] MISHIMA**
I'm sure you know more about that than I do.
**[19:47] SAKURAKOJI**
Hey.
**[19:49] NAKAJIMA**
Good morning.
**[19:50] SAKURAKOJI**
You're moving slowly today, President.
**[19:53] NAKAJIMA**
I do sometimes.
I can't allow myself to fall apart.
**[19:56] SAKURAKOJI**
I couldn't agree more.
**[20:04] STUDENTS**
Vote for me!
**[20:07] STUDENTS**
Thank you!
**[20:08] SAKURAKOJI**
They're campaigning.
**[20:11] SAKURAKOJI**
Mikado.
**[20:20] SAKURAKOJI**
This is a sudden development.

We were suddenly notified in
a class e-mail last night.
