[00:06] ---
    Sagiri, got a minute?
[00:08] ---
    I have to talk to you about tomorrow.
[00:15] ---
    What is it?
[00:16] ---
    S-Sagiri?
[00:18] ---
    That outfit...
[00:20] ---
    A yukata.
[00:25] ---
    What's the occasion?
[00:27] ---
    Because...
[00:33] ---
    You want to go see the fireworks?
[00:35] ---
    Th-That's not it!
[00:36] ---
    I can't go outside, so...
[00:40] ---
    Big Brother?
[00:42] ---
    What are you thinking about?
[00:45] ---
    Just how cute you are in that yukata.
[00:48] ---
    Really?
[00:50] ---
    How to put it...
[00:52] ---
    You kind of look like Muramasa-senpai.
[00:56] ---
    Big Brother, what did you just say?
[00:59] ---
    Umm...
[01:00] ---
    How cute you are in that yukata.
[01:05] ---
    And how you kind of look like
    Muramasa-senpai.
[01:09] ---
    See, she usually wears kimonos and stuff.
[01:12] ---
    And she's really pretty!
[01:13] ---
    So, I mean, you're just as much...
[01:22] ---
    Anyway, she confessed her love to you, right?
[01:27] ---
    How'd you know that?
[01:28] ---
    I can tell as much.
[01:31] ---
    She's just like you, Big Brother.
[01:34] ---
    She confessed in the same way you did, right?
[01:38] ---
    But I don't know your reply to her.
[01:42] ---
    I turned her down.
[01:44] ---
    I said I was in love with someone.
[01:48] ---
    I see.
[01:50] ---
    Right. Is that so.
[01:52] ---
    I-It's not like I asked
    because I was interested or anything.
[01:56] ---
    I see.
[01:58] ---
    How do you feel about her right now?
[02:00] ---
    How?
[02:02] ---
    Of course, I like her.
[02:05] ---
    Huh? You said you turned her down!
[02:08] ---
    I did turn her down.
[02:09] ---
    But she said my novels were
    "the most interesting in the world".
[02:12] ---
    It was the first time someone told me that.
[02:15] ---
    So I've gotten to like her a lot.
[02:20] ---
    - How much?
    - What?
[02:23] ---
    How much do you like her?
[02:25] ---
    W-Well, about second in the world?
[02:29] ---
    Wh-Who is first?
[02:31] ---
    That's...
[02:32] ---
    Who? Say it. Hurry up.
[02:35] ---
    Well...
[02:40] ---
    You.
[02:51] ---
    B-Big Brother, why do you say stuff like that?
[02:54] ---
    Just because I'm turned down doesn't mean
    my love is going to suddenly change.
[02:59] ---
    But that's not—
[03:01] ---
    Or rather, Sagiri...
[03:03] ---
    Why are you wearing that yukata?
[03:12] ---
    Idiot!
[04:49] ---
    I'll be going now!
[05:02] ---
    Sagiri, are you awake?
[05:04] ---
    I'll be sleeping over
    at the editorial office tomorrow.
[05:07] ---
    You know, work for the upcoming book.
    It's crunch time.
[05:11] ---
    I'll leave your food in the fridge,
    so make sure to eat.
[05:15] ---
    And, if you need anything, call me right away.
    I'll come back home.
[05:18] ---
    And—
[05:19] ---
    I know! You're too overprotective!
[05:22] ---
    Are you still angry?
[05:23] ---
    I'm not a kid. I'll be all right!
[05:30] ---
    Take care, Big Brother.
[05:33] ---
    And now, I will commence home security!
[05:54] ---
    Okay!
[06:06] ---
    Okay!
[06:08] ---
    Okay!
[06:09] ---
    Okay!
[06:10] ---
    Okay!
[06:15] ---
    I have secured the safety
    of my home tod—
[06:19] ---
    Izumi-san! Are you not home?
[06:24] ---
    It's him. How dare he surprise me?
[06:27] ---
    Hurry up and get out of here.
[06:30] ---
    Sorry we missed you!
    To: Sagiri Izumi
    We attempted to deliver,
    but resident was not home.
    From: Amu Amu
[06:32] ---
    Wh...
[06:33] ---
    What?
[06:35] ---
    Figures from:
    Legend of the Illusionary Demon Sword
[06:43] ---
    Big Brother, hurry home!
[06:47] ---
    I'm so looking forward to it!
[06:49] ---
    I wonder if that guy
    will be there again this year.
[06:55] ---
    I wonder if Sagiri is all right.
[06:58] ---
    I'm here in Chiba City right now!
[07:01] ---
    Today in Chiba City,
    the Civilian Fireworks Festival will be held.
[07:05] ---
    Many people are here to celebrate!
[07:07] ---
    Now, I'd like to interview people on the street.
[07:11] ---
    I'm here with my family to see the fireworks!
[07:14] ---
    I hope I can come here
    with a boyfriend next year!
[07:17] ---
    Are you her big sister?
[07:18] ---
    Y-Yes.
[07:19] ---
    You have a cute little sister!
[07:23] ---
    I'm currently looking
    for a handsome boyfriend!
[07:25] ---
    Come now, be quiet!
[07:26] ---
    I'm not jealous or anything.
[07:26] ---
    Those sisters really do get along.
[07:29] ---
    Now, back to you in the studio!
[07:33] ---
    You can use this place as much as you want.
    Good luck with turning it into a long novel!
[07:38] ---
    When you're done,
    please hand it over to the part-timer.
[07:44] ---
    Well, do your best! See you!
[07:46] ---
    You're going home?
    No check-throughs?
[07:50] ---
    I'll do it tomorrow!
[08:06] ---
    How cute you are in that yukata...
[08:08] ---
    You kind of look like Muramasa-senpai.
[08:11] ---
    That's it, but that's not it.
[08:23] ---
    That's not it!
[08:47] ---
    What's wrong, Big Brother?
[08:48] ---
    Yeah.
[08:50] ---
    Did you eat your meal?
[08:53] ---
    You called just to ask me that?
[08:56] ---
    I told you I'd be all right.
[08:58] ---
    Well...
[09:02] ---
    What's wrong?
[09:05] ---
    Nothing. Don't stay up too late.
[09:07] ---
    Yup. Good luck with your work, too.
[09:13] ---
    Such a weird big brother.
[09:19] ---
    Sorry we missed you!
[09:20] ---
    I forgot to tell him.
[09:29] ---
    Masamune!
[09:33] ---
    What are you thinking about
    with a serious look on your face?
[09:42] ---
    I think Sagiri wants to go
    to the fireworks festival.
[09:45] ---
    I was thinking if I could do something about it.
[09:48] ---
    - Sister complex.
    - Shut up!
[09:50] ---
    More like, what's with that outfit?
[09:53] ---
    This?
[09:54] ---
    That.
[09:56] ---
    I'm cute, aren't I?
[09:58] ---
    Did you go to supplementary class
    so you can get enough attendance days?
[10:01] ---
    No way!
[10:02] ---
    I came over here to flaunt
    how lovely I look in my school uniform.
[10:07] ---
    How do I look? A lot more charming
    than someone like Muramasa, right?
[10:14] ---
    You've been working this entire time?
[10:17] ---
    I just finished up and heading back home.
[10:20] ---
    Sheesh. So that's why
    you didn't answer the phone.
[10:23] ---
    Oh well. I have a message for you.
[10:26] ---
    From who?
[10:27] ---
    Kunimitsu Shidou.
[10:29] ---
    The rookie author who lost against you
    in the Light-novel Tenkaichi Budoukai.
[10:34] ---
    A wrap party, huh?
[10:37] ---
    I got an invite from a Twitter DM.
[10:39] ---
    I was hoping we can have it at your place,
    with me and Eromanga-sensei there too.
[10:44] ---
    That's fine, right?
[10:45] ---
    Shidou-sensei is okay with it?
[10:47] ---
    After all, he missed getting published
    because I won.
[10:51] ---
    About that. Apparently, his story
    is going to be published anyway.
[10:54] ---
    What?
[10:55] ---
    In the end, they decided to publish
    up to the "third-place piece" as books.
[11:00] ---
    H-Hold on a second! I thought they didn't have
    the luxury of increasing publishing slots?
[11:04] ---
    There were more slots?
[11:06] ---
    "We increased it because I did my best!
[11:09] ---
    Winning or losing shouldn't matter.
[11:11] ---
    In the end, you have to publish
    interesting works!"
[11:15] ---
    And such. I mean, that's something
    your editor would totally say, right?
[11:21] ---
    But their release dates are going to be
    pretty far off in the future.
[11:25] ---
    You wouldn't have been able
    to continue being an author like that, right?
[11:29] ---
    If that's the case, it's not like Shidou-sensei
    has a grudge against me or anything.
[11:34] ---
    Problems all solved?
[11:36] ---
    No, there's still one.
[11:38] ---
    Well...
[11:40] ---
    Seeing Muramasa-senpai would be, um...
[11:48] ---
    You dumped her, right?
[11:50] ---
    I see, so she might feel awkward
    and may not want to see you.
[11:54] ---
    That's what you're thinking, right?
[11:57] ---
    How stupid to worry over
    something that may or may not be!
[12:00] ---
    One chat settles it for sure,
    so why don't you talk to her?
[12:04] ---
    You're really amazing at stuff like that.
[12:07] ---
    I'll try it.
[12:09] ---
    Thanks.
[12:11] ---
    More like, what's wrong?
    You're rather honest today.
[12:14] ---
    Have you fallen in love with Elf-sensei?
[12:16] ---
    I have not.
[12:18] ---
    But...
[12:20] ---
    I thought it'd be great
    if you were my big sister.
[12:32] ---
    Ouch!
[12:35] ---
    I don't need a little brother like you.
[12:39] ---
    Idiot.
[12:43] ---
    Change your look for the summer!
[12:48] ---
    Are you ready for hot summer dates?
    You won't be watching
    the fireworks alone, right!?
[12:51] ---
    I don't get it.
[12:54] ---
    Yes, yes. Yes.
[12:56] ---
    Then, I'll put her on.
[12:58] ---
    Muramasa-sensei.
[13:00] ---
    It's from your beloved Izumi-sensei.
[13:04] ---
    You're kidding!
[13:08] ---
    I can't.
[13:09] ---
    I can't!
[13:11] ---
    Then I'll just hang up.
[13:13] ---
    Don't!
[13:21] ---
    S-Speaking!
[13:23] ---
    Muramasa-senpai?
[13:24] ---
    Yes, that is correct.
[13:26] ---
    Wait, why are you speaking politely?
[13:28] ---
    I-I mean, this is so sudden.
[13:32] ---
    I was surprised, too.
[13:33] ---
    I asked for your contact information,
    and she said you were right next to her.
[13:37] ---
    Were you in a meeting?
[13:39] ---
    Oh, it doesn't matter, right?
[13:42] ---
    Anyway, Masamune-kun,
    you wanted to speak to me?
[13:46] ---
    Well, there's going to be a Light-novel
    Tenkaichi Budoukai wrap party at my place.
[13:52] ---
    If you'd like...
[13:54] ---
    ...but you probably don't, right?
[13:56] ---
    I'll go!
[13:57] ---
    Why wouldn't I want to?
    I'll go if I had to risk my life!
[14:00] ---
    It's fine? I mean, the thing with me, um...
[14:03] ---
    You idiot.
[14:04] ---
    Just because I got turned down doesn't mean
    my love for you will change so easily.
[14:16] ---
    You really don't seem to understand me at all.
[14:21] ---
    Of course I don't.
[14:23] ---
    I've only met you three times so far.
[14:25] ---
    You're right.
[14:28] ---
    Then, once again...
[14:30] ---
    My regards for the future, kouhai.
[14:33] ---
    The pleasure is mine, senpai.
[14:56] ---
    Coming!
[15:02] ---
    Oh, hello. My name is Kunimitsu Shidou.
[15:05] ---
    Is this Masamune Izumi-sensei's residence?
[15:08] ---
    Oh, yes. I'm Masamune Izumi.
[15:10] ---
    Oh, just as I thought!
    It's a pleasure to meet you, Izumi-sensei!
[15:15] ---
    No, the pleasure's mine.
    Nice to meet you, Shidou-sensei.
[15:20] ---
    Please, sit anywhere you'd like.
[15:23] ---
    Okay. Thank you so much.
[15:25] ---
    Shidou-sensei, you're the only one here so far.
[15:28] ---
    I'll go make some tea.
[15:30] ---
    - Um...
    - Yes?
[15:34] ---
    Why don't we drop the "-sensei" bit?
[15:37] ---
    Oh, right.
[15:41] ---
    Sorry to make you wait!
[15:42] ---
    As you requested, I've become
    the most beautiful girl in a yukata for you!
[15:47] ---
    Masamune-kun, was this all right?
[15:50] ---
    Y-Yeah. Perfect!
[15:53] ---
    Shidou-kun is here already.
[15:55] ---
    Who?
[15:57] ---
    Pardon me!
[15:59] ---
    I'll be right next to Masamune!
[16:01] ---
    Hey!
[16:03] ---
    You're being audacious!
[16:05] ---
    Umm...
[16:06] ---
    Yama-something-sensei.
[16:07] ---
    Why do you only vaguely remember my name?
[16:09] ---
    Then, Masamune-kun...
[16:11] ---
    Are you listening!?
[16:12] ---
    I'll take the other side.
[16:14] ---
    D-Don't get so close like that.
[16:16] ---
    Why are you so slovenly just for Muramasa?
[16:19] ---
    I'm way cuter than she is!
[16:21] ---
    Cute, not cute, that doesn't matter
    when you're not dressed like normal—
[16:25] ---
    Because a yukata—
[16:26] ---
    That's enough!
[16:32] ---
    There.
[16:34] ---
    What was that?
[16:36] ---
    A poltergeist.
[16:38] ---
    Okay.
[16:40] ---
    I-In any case, Izumi-kun,
    you're really popular.
[16:46] ---
    Huh? He's not popular at all.
[16:48] ---
    Izumi-sensei already
    has someone he's in love with, right?
[16:51] ---
    He wouldn't be moonstruck
    for anyone else, right?
[16:53] ---
    Y-Yeah.
[16:57] ---
    Your voice was rather soft.
[16:59] ---
    Yes.
[17:01] ---
    Yes!
[17:03] ---
    I will not be moonstruck!
[17:08] ---
    I'm going to get the food ready!
[17:08] ---
    What kind of a relationship are they in?
[17:10] ---
    Don't you be running away!
[17:11] ---
    They have a lot going on.
[17:13] ---
    A lot going on? But they're both guys, right?
[17:16] ---
    I think he completely misunderstands us.
[17:19] ---
    Masamune-kun, you made all this?
[17:22] ---
    Yeah.
[17:23] ---
    Whoa!
[17:25] ---
    I hope it suits your tastes.
[17:30] ---
    So tasty.
[17:32] ---
    Then, enough with the introductions! Cheers!
[17:36] ---
    Cheers!
[17:37] ---
    Cheers!
[17:38] ---
    Congrats, Masamune.
[17:40] ---
    Congratulations.
[17:40] ---
    Congrats.
[17:50] ---
    Handmade?
[17:52] ---
    Yes.
[17:53] ---
    Tasty!
[17:54] ---
    Thank you so much.
[17:56] ---
    Come to think, your story
    for the competition was about sweets, too.
[18:00] ---
    I've always liked sweets ever since I was little.
[18:02] ---
    Someday, I'd like to collaborate
    with a food company.
[18:04] ---
    My dream is to have characters or sweets
    from my stories stocked up in stores.
[18:09] ---
    Here, here!
[18:10] ---
    My great dream is to write
    the ultimate light-novel...
[18:14] ---
    and conquer the world!
[18:17] ---
    Before heading out into the world,
[18:19] ---
    I have to first defeat Dengeki Bunko!
[18:22] ---
    You mean me?
[18:23] ---
    Starburst Stream!
[18:26] ---
    Applause!
[18:28] ---
    My dream is to write
    the most interesting novel in the world...
[18:32] ---
    ...and to read it myself.
[18:36] ---
    Well, I want to make the new title a smash hit,
[18:39] ---
    and turn it into anime, and watch it here
    together with my little sister.
[18:43] ---
    That is our dream.
[18:45] ---
    That's a great dream.
[18:46] ---
    Do your best.
[18:48] ---
    Yeah!
[18:49] ---
    And lastly, your turn, Eromanga-sensei.
[18:53] ---
    My dream is...
[18:55] ---
    Izumi-sensei already mentioned it.
[18:57] ---
    You have one more, don't you?
[19:02] ---
    What is your dream?
[19:04] ---
    I...
[19:10] ---
    ...want to be the bride of the person I love.
[19:15] ---
    Thanks for having us!
[19:17] ---
    - Muramasa, let's go see fireworks!
    - Huh? Sure.
[19:20] ---
    Kunimitsu, you're coming, too!
[19:34] ---
    Was the wrap party fun for you?
[19:36] ---
    It was ordinary.
[19:38] ---
    I see.
[19:49] ---
    Everyone gathered here in this house.
[19:51] ---
    Everyone ate the same food,
    and talked about all kinds of things.
[19:55] ---
    It was really fun for me.
[19:57] ---
    On the other hand, now that everyone left,
    it's all quiet now.
[20:02] ---
    Big Brother...
[20:04] ---
    Were you lonely?
[20:08] ---
    That phone call the other day...
[20:10] ---
    You were acting rather strange.
[20:12] ---
    Yeah, I might have been.
[20:18] ---
    You know, Sagiri, I...
[20:24] ---
    I'm scared of being by myself.
[20:28] ---
    Mom... my real mother...
    got into an accident while I was home alone.
[20:35] ---
    She never came home.
[20:37] ---
    Ever since then, I've been scared.
[20:42] ---
    So when I gained a new family, I was happy.
[20:46] ---
    I'm so pathetic.
[20:49] ---
    That's not true.
[20:51] ---
    I lost the will to leave my room.
[20:54] ---
    You alone being all right can't be the case.
[21:10] ---
    Oh, it started.
[21:39] ---
    I finally figured it out.
[21:42] ---
    What you want is a family.
[21:45] ---
    Yeah. I want a family.
[21:50] ---
    I hadn't thought of you as family,
    and I don't want to be your little sister.
[21:57] ---
    But, since you're so hopeless...
[22:00] ---
    I'll pretend to be your little sister for a bit.
[23:27] ---
    I've gotten much further away.
[23:30] ---
