    Food! Food!
[00:09] en
    Yumoto, this is already your third meal of the day.
[00:12] yumoto
    I just get so hungry after a cuddle!
[00:16] yumoto
    Hey, I'll take this!
[00:18] atsu
    Being young is an amazing thing.
[00:20] en
    In his case, I don't think it has
    anything to do with being young.
[00:24] gero
    In my case,
[00:25] gero
    eating without a tablecloth on the table
    always cuts my appetite in half, but...
[00:30] gero
    President, Vice President,
    what about you two?
[00:33] kusa
    I've heard that in Europe during the Middle Ages,
[00:36] kusa
    they used the tablecloth to wipe their mouths.
[00:39] kusa
    I'm grateful that they changed
    that to individual napkins.
[00:43] ari
    Speaking of which,
[00:44] ari
    it's a shame the cafeteria has
    no finger bowls, don't you think?
[00:46] gero
    Oh, that's true.
[00:48] kusa
    Let's see if we can find room
    for it in the Student Council funds.
[00:52] yumoto
    Box lunch! Box lunch! It makes me so happy!
[00:56] yumoto
    Box lunch! Box lunch! Steamy hot!
[01:00] yumoto
    You gotta eat it while it's still warm!
[01:02] kusa
    The existence of such base and vulgar
    individuals here at Binan High School
[01:07] kusa
    absolutely cannot be permitted.
[01:08] gero
    In other words, you want to do something about
[01:12] gero
    the members of that Earth Defense Club thing?
[01:14] kusa
    You catch on quickly, Akoya.

[02:54] wom
    Oh, my...
[02:59] yumoto
    An afternoon cuddle after lunch
    makes me feel so much better!
[03:01] wom
    Everyone!
[03:03] wom
    Don't you think it's strange?
SIGN    Potato Chips
[03:06] en
    What is?
[03:07] atsu
    That we pretend we don't see the cuddling?
[03:10] wom
    No! I mean the monsters!
[03:12] yumoto
    Oh? Did another one show up?
[03:14] wom
    Not that!
[03:16] wom
    Don't you think it's strange?
[03:18] wom
    They always seem to appear close to us.
[03:22] en
    Now that you mention it...
[03:23] atsu
    You think the enemy could
    be closer than we thought?
[03:26] io
    It's true, they do appear awfully
    frequently within our area of activity.
[03:30] ryuu
    Yeah, they seem to show up just
    as we start talking about them.
[03:37] gero
    Pardon me, Defense Club members.
[03:41] gero
    What is that stench?
[03:44] atsu
    Hey, Gero-kun. Can we help you?
[03:53] gero
    The truth is, I came to inform you
[03:55] gero
    that while your group has been approved as a club,
[03:59] gero
    student council rule 132 states that
[04:02] gero
    if the club members' final exam
    scores do not meet the average,
[04:06] gero
    your club will be dissolved.
[04:08] atsu
    Huh? There's a rule like that?
[04:11] gero
    It was just established.
[04:14] gero
    Well, that's all I wanted to say.
[04:17] gero
    That stench...
[04:19] gero
    Is there a dead animal here?
[04:24] en
    You've got the right idea.
[04:28] atsu
    I-Is that all you wanted?
[04:31] gero
    Yes. I'll be going, then.
[04:35] ryuu
    What are you looking at?
[04:36] gero
    Weren't you the one looking at me?
[04:42] ryuu
    Doesn't that guy have the
    wrong idea about something?
[04:45] io
    Maybe he's interested in you, Ryuu?
[04:47] ryuu
    Cut that out. It's gross.
[04:50] gero
    What is this unpleasant sensation?
[04:54] gero
    Really, I wish that club would just fall apart.
[04:58] wom
    I cannot allow it!
[04:59] wom
    The Earth Defense Club,
    so full of love, must not be dissolved!
[05:04] en
    But from their perspective,
    we must seem pretty incomprehensible.
[05:09] ryuu
    Well, that's true.
[05:10] wom
    Even so, we must prevent
    the club's dissolution!
[05:13] yumoto
    You're so passionate!
    Have your needs been building up?
[05:16] atsu
    That's you.
[05:18] wom
    Silence!
[05:19] wom
    Listen, all of you!
[05:21] wom
    You absolutely must see to it that
    your test scores beat the average!
[05:25] wom
    That is an order!
[05:34] en
    Ryuu, do you think
    you'll do okay on the finals?
[05:37] ryuu
    Nah, probably not.
[05:40] ryuu
    You've got it good, Kinugawa-senpai.
[05:42] ryuu
    You always get top scores.
[05:45] atsu
    Well, I suppose.
[05:46] atsu
    But I can't get 100s like En-chan does.
[05:50] ryuu
    Yufuin-senpai, you've
    gotten perfect scores before?
[05:52] en
    Yeah, when I successfully
    guess the subject matter.
[05:55] ryuu
    So if there's no need to worry about Io...
[05:58] en
    I guess the real problem is Yumoto.
[06:00] atsu
    Yumoto's an unknown quantity, huh?
[06:02] ryuu
    An unknown quantity?
[06:03] en
    I hear that in math, he can tell the
    area of a shape just by looking at it.
[06:07] ryuu
    Without any calculations?
[06:09] en
    No calculation at all.
[06:11] atsu
    He probably doesn't know
    the equations, after all.
[06:13] ryuu
    Wow.
[06:15] atsu
    But since his way of thinking is so unique,
[06:17] atsu
    in subjects like Japanese, he can easily get zeroes.
[06:22] yumoto
    So, how's the bath?
[06:24] en
    Yumoto, are you going to do okay on your tests?
[06:27] yumoto
    I'm not motivated at all.
[06:28] en
    Hey, hey.
[06:30] yumoto
    After all, I'm inheriting the
    family bath, so I don't need school!
[06:35] gora
    Yumoto. You must not become a man like me.
[06:39] gora
    A man good for nothing but chopping wood...
[06:42] yumoto
    Big bro...
[06:43] en
    Now, now. It's because
    your brother chops the wood
[06:46] en
    that we can enjoy the baths, after all.
[06:49] atsu
    But isn't Kurotama Bath's selling point
    that it runs off a free-flowing hot spring?
[06:55] atsu
    So it shouldn't really need firewood, right?
[06:58] ryuu
    Then what does he chop wood for?
[07:01] yumoto
    Why do you, big bro?
[07:07] yumoto
    I think the screws in my
    brother's head might be loose.
[07:10] en
    You're one to talk.
[07:11] yumoto
    Hey. Speaking of screws, do you
    know why they're called "screws"?
[07:18] ryuu
    Because you screw them in?
[07:19] yumoto
    Oh, I see!
[07:21] yumoto
    They're screws because you screw them in.
[07:23] en
    You mean that wasn't a quiz,
    just a normal question?
[07:25] yumoto
    That's amazing!
[07:27] yumoto
    Ryuu-senpai, you're amazing!
[07:30] yumoto
    The riddle I've been puzzling over
    since third grade is solved!
[07:32] yumoto
    Yay! Yay! I did it!
[07:33] ryuu
    That's too long to puzzle over something! Look it up!
[07:41] boy
    Naruko-senpai gets good grades
    and he's rich. He's amazing.
[07:45] boy
    He pretty much has no faults at all!
[07:48] boy
    H-Hey.
[07:57] itsu
    My name is Itsumo Ichiban.
SIGN    Itsumo Ichiban
[07:59] itsu
    As my name implies, my grades are "always #1."
[08:03] itsu
    But people still find me creepy because they say I sound dumb when I talk.
[08:08] itsu
    I don't particularly care, though.
[08:10] boy
    You know, Itsumo-senpai gets good grades,
[08:13] boy
    but isn't the way he talks kinda odd?
[08:14] boy
    I think he's got just one screw loose.
[08:17] itsu
    What do you mean, "kinda odd"?
[08:19] itsu
    If you think I'm creepy, just say I'm creepy.
[08:21] itsu
    And why would you say "just one screw"?
[08:24] itsu
    Why be so specific about that?
[08:25] io
    He talks to himself an awful lot.
[08:26] itsu
    Gets under my skin...
[08:29] io
    Oh, is that the time? I've got to hurry.
[08:33] gero
    Oh, pardon me.
[08:38] gero
    I've been wondering...
[08:41] gero
    Why does a man of your caliber
    associate with that bunch?
[08:45] io
    Are you talking to me?
[08:48] gero
    Of course.
[08:50] gero
    Someone like you would fit
    right in with the student council.
[08:54] io
    Is there any profit in listening to this?
SIGN    Student Council Room
[09:02] gero
    And so, I think the student council
    requires a head accountant
[09:06] gero
    who's an expert in modern finance.
[09:08] gero
    In other words, a treasurer.
[09:12] ari
    It's true that we're dealing
    with large sums of money here.
[09:16] kusa
    So, do you have any candidates?
[09:19] kusa
    They must have both the
    intelligence and refinement
[09:21] kusa
    suitable to our student council.
[09:23] gero
    Yes, I have one.
[09:32] io
    Me? Become the student council's treasurer?
[09:34] gero
    I don't think it's a bad deal at all.
[09:36] ari
    Of course, we know you're
    involved in the Defense Club, too.
[09:39] ari
    We don't expect you to answer right away.
[09:41] io
    No, I'll join.
[09:44] io
    If it will make me a profit.
[09:47] kusa
    To ask for money in exchange for a
    position on the sacred student council...
[09:52] kusa
    But that's interesting.
[09:54] kusa
    Then we will pay you adequate compensation.
[09:58] itsu
    I'm always #1 in my grade,
    so why is it #2 Naruko instead of me?
[10:03] itsu
    I can't understand it...
[10:06] gero
    Now, even if they manage
    to clear the test hurdle,
[10:09] gero
    the Defense Club will be
    left with four members.

    Oh, wow!
[11:28] yumoto
    I got another zero in Japanese!
[11:31] en
    That's okay, it was within expectations.
[11:33] wom
    How'd you do, Zaou-san?
[11:35] ryuu
    To be frank, I didn't reach average in anything.
[11:39] en
    It's okay.
[11:40] en
    Naruko's high grades mean our
    second year guys averaged out.
[11:44] ryuu
    Thank you, Io!
[11:46] wom
    Kinugawa-san, how about you?
[11:49] atsu
    I got about 30 points
    over the average, I suppose.
[11:52] ryuu
    Which means...
[11:53] atsu
    That doesn't completely cover for Yumoto's zero.
[11:55] atsu
    So we still haven't reached average...
[11:59] wom
    Which means everything's
    riding on Yufuin-san's results...
[12:03] atsu
    Did you guess the subject matter right?
[12:07] en
    Right on the mark!
[12:09] wom
    I-Incredible!

    That's our Yufuin-senpai!

    Can I take these?
[12:16] en
    What would you do with them?
[12:18] yumoto
    Keep them as heirlooms.
[12:19] en
    You don't have to do that.
[12:21] atsu
    Well, this is a relief, though.
[12:23] atsu
    Now the club won't be dissolved.
[12:25] wom
    Oh, I'm so relieved!
[12:27] io
    Hey there.
[12:28] ryuu
    Hey, Io! Looks like our club won't be dissolved.
[12:33] io
    That's great to hear.
[12:35] io
    Oh, but I'm quitting the Defense Club.
[12:39] io
    They said they'd provide me with compensation,
[12:40] io
    so I decided to join the student council.
[12:43] io
    Considering my side business,
[12:44] io
    I won't have any time left for club activities,
[12:46] io
    so I thought I'd just quit.
[12:49] io
    So, that said, I'll be going now.
[13:00] ryuu
    Hang on, Io!
[13:02] io
    Is something wrong?
[13:05] ryuu
    "Is something wrong," my ass!
    What's this all about?
[13:10] io
    It means that money is important.
[13:13] io
    Money doesn't betray.
[13:16] ryuu
    But you do betray?!
[13:25] en
    I guess this screams "youth."
[13:28] yumoto
    Did something happen?
[13:30] wom
    This is an emergency situation!
[13:33] atsu
    Even though we cleared the test hurdle,
[13:34] atsu
    if Io quits, the club will be dissolved
[13:37] atsu
    for no longer having five members.

    Oh, but should we call Io-senpai?

[20:16] yumoto
    Kaeru (frog)?
[20:18] ari
    Well, shall we leave it at that for now?
[20:22] gero
    Commanders can't be
    expected to fight, after all.
[20:24] kusa
    The next time we meet will be the end of you.
[20:28] kusa
    You'd do well to prepare for it.
[20:33] atsu
    They introduced themselves then left...
[20:35] en
    Lucky us. You can't talk
    to people like that anyway.
[20:40] ryuu
    Weren't you a bit late?
[20:41] io
    I'm sorry.
[20:43] io
    I was calculating the profit margin
    I'd achieve if I joined the student council.
[20:47] ryuu
    So, which did you determine was more profitable?
[20:50] io
    I can't tell you that.
[20:53] ryuu
    You should be able to do a calculation
    like that in your head immediately!
[20:55] yumoto
    I guess we're back to normal, huh?
[20:57] ryuu
    What took you so long?!
[20:57] en
    Let's go home. I'm tired.
[20:58] io
    Well, figuring in the rate of
    fluctuation made it difficult...
[20:59] atsu
    I want to get changed.
[21:02] wom
    Well, that settles that!
[21:11] gero
    So, in the end, Naruko-kun turned us down.
[21:14] ari
    So the Defense Club will continue on?
[21:16] kusa
    Enough. This topic is not suitable for lunchtime.
[21:20] yumoto
    Box lunch! Box lunch! It makes me so happy!
[21:24] yumoto
    Box lunch! Box lunch!
[21:26] yumoto
    You gotta eat it while it's still warm!

[21:34] yumoto
    How's the water feel?
[21:35] en
    It's perfect.
[21:37] yumoto
    Big bro! He says the water's perfect!
[21:40] atsu
    No, but really, this is a natural hot spring.
[21:44] atsu
    He's not preserving the
    heat by chopping wood...
[21:46] ryuu
    To be honest, there's
    zero point in chopping wood.
[21:48] io
    I don't understand him at all.
[21:50] yumoto
    No, when I look at my
    big brother's back, I know.
[21:54] yumoto
    He's not a man good for
    nothing but chopping wood.
[21:56] yumoto
    Chopping wood is just what he loves!
[21:59] yumoto
    I want to become a man who throws
    himself into what he loves, just like him.
[23:40] wom
    Just because it's summer,
    you're going to the beach? Really...
[23:43] wom
    Just what do you think your
    duty as the Battle Lovers is?!
[23:47] wom
    What? Mr. Tawarayama is missing!
