**[00:46] Mafuyu**
She paid you?
**[00:47] Akihiko**
Wait, no. Don't get the wrong idea.
This is just her thing.
**[00:51] Haruki**
*Akihiko?*
**[00:53] (Flashback) Haruki**
He used to be pretty wild,
**[00:55] (Flashback) Haruki**
but I think he's calmed
down quite a bit now.
**[00:59] Akihiko**
Yo, we take a right up here.
**[01:02] Mafuyu**
Kaji-san.
**[01:05] Mafuyu**
It's not that you've actually calmed down.
**[01:07] Mafuyu**
You just don't do stuff like that
in front of Haruki-san, right?
**[01:17] Akihiko**
I knew you wanted to go all-out
to learn more about music,
**[01:20] Akihiko**
but I didn't think you'd actually
come to this concert with me.
**[01:32] Mafuyu**
Thank you very much for the ticket.
**[01:34] Akihiko**
No worries. I didn't pay for them, anyway.
**[01:37] Mafuyu**
Huh?
**[01:38] Akihiko**
Apparently, he's taken a liking to you.
**[01:45] Mafuyu**
*I'm pretty sure I've seen him before.*
**[01:49] Akihiko**
Damn it, I told him to brush his hair...
**[02:34] Mafuyu**
Um...
**[02:36] Mafuyu**
So why is the guy with the violin
the only one standing?
**[02:42] Akihiko**
That's how violin concertos work.
**[02:58] Akihiko**
* Ugetsu was the first genius*
* that I ever encountered.*
**[03:09] Akihiko**
*His talent was aggressive.*
**[03:14] Akihiko**
* Back then, there was still something*
* like aspiration in my music,*
**[03:17] Akihiko**
*as well as something resembling confidence.*
**[03:21] Akihiko**
*But that all ended the day I met Ugetsu.*
**[03:27] Akihiko**
*Ever since that day, I've hated him.*
**[03:51] Mafuyu**
Kaji-san.
**[03:56] Mafuyu**
I...
**[03:58] Mafuyu**
I... want to write songs.

Whoa...
**[04:08] Haruki**
We made it through the second screening...
**[04:10] Ritsuka**
Second?
**[04:11] Akihiko**
Screening for what, now?
**[04:13] Haruki**
Our entry for CAC!
**[04:15] Ritsuka**
Huh?!
**[04:15] Mafuyu**
CAC? What's that?
**[04:17] Ritsuka**
Countdown-Fes Amateur Contest!
**[04:20] Ritsuka**
It's a super huge rock festival
held at the end of the year.
**[04:23] Ritsuka**
There's a slot where amateurs
get to play with the pros!
**[04:27] Mafuyu**
When did we even apply for that?
**[04:28] Haruki**
Uh, we talked about entering when we
decided on our band name, remember?!
**[04:33] Ritsuka**
Wait, when did we even get
through the first screening?
**[04:36] Ritsuka**
You never mentioned it!
**[04:37] Haruki**
I *definitely* told you they
cleared our application!
**[04:40] Akihiko**
So how many screenings are there?
**[04:42] Haruki**
The third one coming up is the last one.
**[04:44] Haruki**
They'll be judging our performance live.
**[04:47] Mafuyu**
A live performance?!
**[04:48] Ritsuka**
Why are you so happy?!
**[04:51] Ritsuka**
Do you understand how big a deal this is?!
**[04:53] Akihiko**
Ue. Down, boy.
**[04:55] Mafuyu**
I wanna do it.
**[04:56] Haruki**
With what? The one song we have?
**[04:59] Mafuyu**
But it makes me happy.
**[05:02] Mafuyu**
Seeing all the comments, I mean.
**[05:04] Mafuyu**
Don't they make you guys happy?
**[05:06] Haruki**
To be honest...
**[05:08] Akihiko**
I'm ecstatic.
**[05:09] Ritsuka**
Same.
**[05:11] Mafuyu**
Good. Because...
**[05:13] Mafuyu**
I really want to do this.
***SIGN*** Karaoke Plaza
**[05:22] Ritsuka**
Mafuyu, you said you wanted
to write songs, right?
**[05:25] Mafuyu**
Yeah.
**[05:27] Mafuyu**
Our first song gave me some
personal closure, basically.
**[05:32] Mafuyu**
So for our next one, I...
**[05:39] Ritsuka**
Seriously, *what*?! Don't just give up
in the middle of your thought!
**[05:42] Mafuyu**
I do have something I want to say.
**[05:44] Ritsuka**
Just say it, then!
**[05:45] Mafuyu**
Another time.
**[05:46] Ritsuka**
What?!
**[05:49] Mafuyu**
* After hearing his performance,*
* I realized two things.*
**[05:54] Mafuyu**
* The first is that you can make*
* emotions resonate through music.*
**[06:00] Mafuyu**
*The second*
**[06:02] Mafuyu**
*is that I think Kaji-san is the same as me.*
**[06:06] Ugetsu**
I'm... home.
**[06:09] Ugetsu**
Are you here, Akihiko?
**[06:13] Ugetsu**
I'm back in Japan for the first time in ages,
and you're in bed before me? Seriously?
**[06:18] Ugetsu**
Hey, so how was the Tchaik concerto?
**[06:22] Ugetsu**
Akihiko.
**[06:25] Ugetsu**
It was probably so good, it made you hard.
**[06:31] Ugetsu**
Aki—
**[06:42] Ugetsu**
What? Are we doing this today? That's rare.
**[06:46] Ugetsu**
You never get tired of this,
do you, Akihiko?
**[06:50] Mafuyu**
* I'm pretty sure Kaji-san is also in love*
* with someone he can't replace...*
**[06:55] Mafuyu**
*and it's unrequited.*
**[07:07] Ugetsu**
Akihiko! Someone's here!
**[07:11] Ugetsu**
Akihiko!
**[07:12] Akihiko**
Yeah... Just one more minute...
**[07:15] Ugetsu**
Uh, if you don't answer it now,
they're gonna leave.
**[07:18] Ugetsu**
Who is it?
**[07:20] Ugetsu**
Oh...
**[07:22] Ugetsu**
Ah! You're the vocalist kid!
**[07:37] Akihiko**
The hell am I looking at right now?
**[07:39] Ugetsu**
Shh.
**[07:57] Ugetsu**
Yeah, that sucked.
**[08:02] Ugetsu**
So the 6-bar progression after the hook...
**[08:05] Ugetsu**
The "lala lala lala" part...
**[08:08] Ugetsu**
I think you didn't know what to do,
so you brought down the intensity.
**[08:12] Ugetsu**
I bet it's supposed to be
more like, "Lala lala lala..."
**[08:17] Ugetsu**
Those are the emotions
you wanted to sing, right?
**[08:25] Akihiko**
Mafuyu, is that your new song?
**[08:28] Mafuyu**
Yes. That's all I've finished so far, though—
**[08:30] Akihiko**
Yeah, yeah, got it.
**[08:32] Akihiko**
I've got plans with Haruki.
**[08:35] Akihiko**
Keep Ugetsu company for me.
**[08:38] Mafuyu**
Huh?
**[08:40] Haruki**
A-Are you sure it was okay
to just leave him there?!
**[08:43] Akihiko**
Sure.
**[08:44] Haruki**
W-Wait, you have a roommate?!
**[08:47] Akihiko**
I do.
**[08:48] Akihiko**
But, man... Mafuyu's gotten
so much better, it's scary.
**[08:52] Akihiko**
Everything he's kept bottled up
inside is finally free,
**[08:56] Akihiko**
so it's probably just all overflowing.
**[08:58] Haruki**
*R-Roommate?*
**[09:00] Akihiko**
He actually had the balls to show up
at my place unannounced, so yeah.
**[09:05] Akihiko**
I swear, geniuses just end up
losing sight of everything else.
**[09:09] Haruki**
*He has a roommate...*
**[09:10] Akihiko**
And then there's Uenoyama.
**[09:13] Akihiko**
I know he's taking remedial classes,
but only for two subjects, right?
**[09:15] Haruki**
I know, right?!
**[09:17] Haruki**
Being average at that school means
you're already super smart!
**[09:21] Akihiko**
He's pretty much a borderline genius
himself. He's got what it takes.
**[09:29] Haruki**
So, Akihiko...
**[09:31] Haruki**
I know this might not be the best way
to put it, but you're different.
**[09:34] Haruki**
You were in orchestra in college,
so you're actually a really good violinist,
**[09:38] Haruki**
and you can play the guitar and bass.
**[09:41] Haruki**
But... like, you're super talented overall,
but you don't excel in any one thing.
**[09:46] Akihiko**
Wait, was that a diss?
**[09:47] Haruki**
No!
**[09:49] Haruki**
It's sorta cool being a jack-of-all-trades,
but a master of none, you know?
**[09:52] Haruki**
Meanwhile, I'm the dictionary
definition of mediocrity.
**[09:56] Haruki**
But...
**[09:58] Haruki**
I was just thinking that
must be hard sometimes.
**[10:05] Akihiko**
You're the peacemaker.
**[10:07] Haruki**
Huh?
**[10:08] Akihiko**
That's why everyone loves you.
**[10:14] Haruki**
Uh, what?
**[10:16] Akihiko**
Nothing. Just saying you're way
more popular than you think.
**[10:20] Haruki**
Uh, I'm not actually popular with anyone!
**[10:25] Ugetsu**
Hm... There's nothing here.
**[10:29] Mafuyu**
Um, Uge... tsu-san, are you and Kaji-san...
**[10:34] Ugetsu**
Oh, sleeping together?
**[10:36] Ugetsu**
We're not exactly together anymore.
**[10:39] Mafuyu**
Huh?
**[10:43] Ugetsu**
*I met Akihiko in high school.*
**[10:45] Ugetsu**
*And my first love was so much fun.*
**[10:53] Ugetsu**
* He spoiled the hell out of me,*
* and I became more cowardly.*
**[11:07] Ugetsu**
*But...*
**[11:12] Ugetsu**
*Around the time we graduated high school*
**[11:14] Ugetsu**
* and I started working as a violinist,*
* I suddenly realized...*
**[11:19] Ugetsu**
* that we were suffocating each other*
* more than anything else in this world.*
**[11:27] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
Akihiko.
**[11:28] (Flashback) Akihiko**
Hm?
**[11:30] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
Let's end this.
**[11:40] Ugetsu**
With Akihiko around, I don't have
any freedom with my music,
**[11:46] Ugetsu**
and my existence overall was
causing suffering for him, too.
**[11:52] Ugetsu**
And I think you know the rest.
**[11:54] Ugetsu**
We both spent two years being desperate,
**[11:58] Ugetsu**
and somehow, we just keep
crawling back to each other.
**[12:01] Mafuyu**
Why did you tell me all this?
**[12:07] Ugetsu**
Well, I don't have any friends.
**[12:11] Ugetsu**
Maybe I just wanted someone to understand.
**[12:15] Ugetsu**
Even just a little bit.
**[12:18] Ugetsu**
I'm not very expressive,
**[12:21] Ugetsu**
so I'm pretty sure Akihiko thinks I'm the worst
piece of shit ever and hates my guts.
**[12:26] Ugetsu**
I love Akihiko to death,
**[12:28] Ugetsu**
and even though I'm the one who dumped
him, I haven't been able to let go.
**[12:32] Ugetsu**
I've been trying to get rid of him
at every opportunity,
**[12:35] Ugetsu**
but that still hasn't worked out, either.
**[12:38] Ugetsu**
All this time... I've been waiting
for him to finally leave me.
**[12:44] Ugetsu**
Well, anyway. I'm gonna head out, too.
**[12:47] Ugetsu**
The place is soundproof,
so make yourself at home.
**[12:50] Ugetsu**
If you liked that story,
**[12:52] Ugetsu**
go ahead and use it as
inspiration for your new song.
**[13:03] Ugetsu**
* Right around the time we*
* first started living together,*
**[13:07] Ugetsu**
*and he tried to give me my first gift...*
**[13:11] Ugetsu**
*For some reason, I hated them so much*
**[13:14] Ugetsu**
* that I said I didn't want them*
* and knocked one out of his hand.*
**[13:19] Ugetsu**
*It was just a mug.*
**[13:24] Ugetsu**
*I should've just said I was happy.*
**[13:28] Ugetsu**
*I want to stay by his side.*
**[13:30] Ugetsu**
*I want to stay by his side.*
**[13:32] Ugetsu**
*I want to stay by his side.*
**[13:34] Ugetsu**
*Even so... I love music.*
**[13:44] Ugetsu**
* But now... I'm sure nothing*
* will surpass that.*
**[13:50] Ugetsu**
He's just seriously such a great guy.
***SIGN*** Ugetsu Murata
***SIGN*** I'm bringing home my new boyfriend. So you'll have to find a different save point today.
**[14:03] Akihiko**
Mm? What?
**[14:05] Haruki**
What do you mean?
***SIGN*** Okonomiyaki
**[14:07] Haruki**
We talked about doing a get-together
with the other bands...
**[14:10] Haruki**
What?! What do you mean, you're not coming?
**[14:12] Akihiko**
I'm in a really shitty mood right now,
**[14:14] Akihiko**
*so I'm not coming.*
**[14:16] Haruki**
Bu—
**[14:18] Akihiko**
*Bye.*
**[14:23] Haruki**
*That was... a girl.*
**[14:26] Haruki**
*They were definitely doing it.*
**[14:29] Person A**
It looked so good!
**[14:30] Person B**
What did?
**[14:31] Person C**
The udon?
**[14:32] Person A**
Yeah!
**[14:32] Take**
Something happen?
**[14:33] Person C**
It's super good.
**[14:34] Person B**
It's so simple to make.
**[14:35] Person B**
I had some sukiyaki broth left over,
**[14:35] Haruki**
Akihiko seems to be really
irritable these past few days.
**[14:37] Person B**
so I just added eggs and tofu
and mixed them all together.
**[14:40] Person B**
Oh, and I added some cheese.
**[14:40] Take**
So that's why you're tired.
**[14:42] Person A**
I've never made sukiyaki before.
**[14:42] Take**
Seriously, just forget about him already!
**[14:44] Person C**
Seriously?
**[14:45] Person A**
Do you just cook the meat?
**[14:46] Haruki**
Yeah, I mean... yeah...
**[14:47] Person B**
You chop up some vegetables,
**[14:48] Person B**
and then stew them with some
soy sauce, mirin, and sugar.
**[14:51] Take**
Hey.
**[14:51] Person A**
I've never used mirin before.
**[14:53] Person C**
Do you even cook?
**[14:53] Take**
Why not play bass for another band
for a change of pace?
**[14:54] Person A**
Not at all.
**[14:55] Person B**
Char siu boys!
**[14:57] Person A**
That doesn't count.
**[14:57] Take**
As a support bassist.
**[14:58] Person C**
Then do you just eat out all the time?
**[14:59] Haruki**
What? In your band?
**[14:59] Person A**
Yeah. I should be saving money,
**[15:01] Take**
Nah.
**[15:02] Take**
It's, uh... your ex-girlfriend's band.
**[15:03] Person A**
but I really don't know how to cook.
**[15:05] Person B**
Take cooks.
**[15:05] Haruki**
My ex-gir... Uh, no!
**[15:06] Person C**
Yatake-san cooks?
**[15:07] Take**
I figured you'd be okay...
**[15:07] Person B**
His family sends him veggies all the time.
**[15:10] Haruki**
Okay? Seriously?
**[15:10] Person B**
He shares some with me
sometimes, and it's awesome.
**[15:10] Take**
More importantly, are *you* okay?
**[15:13] Person C**
Lucky.
**[15:14] Person B**
You don't cook.
**[15:14] Take**
You seem really stressed lately.
**[15:16] Person C**
Maybe if I got some free veggies.
**[15:17] Take**
Are you actually enjoying music lately?
**[15:19] Person A**
You guys are close.
**[15:19] Haruki**
Yeah. Of course I... am...
**[15:21] Person B**
I mean, we get along.
**[15:22] Person C**
I guess.
**[15:23] Person B**
You guess?!
**[15:24] Haruki**
*But I'm definitely... suffering even more.*
**[15:31] Haruki**
Workin' hard?
**[15:33] Ritsuka**
Hey.
**[15:34] Haruki**
Wait, it's just you two?
**[15:36] Haruki**
Where's Akihiko?
**[15:37] Mafuyu**
He said he couldn't make it
because of something at school.
**[15:40] Haruki**
*School? Really, now?*
**[15:42] Ritsuka**
Well, we just wanted to talk about
the new song today rather than jam.
**[15:47] Ritsuka**
Can you take a listen?
**[15:49] Haruki**
Sure.
**[15:50] Ritsuka**
Okay, let's do this.
**[15:52] Ritsuka**
One, two, three, four.
**[16:02] Mafuyu**
What's for dinner tonight? Udon or pasta...
**[16:08] Ritsuka**
Yeah, those aren't the final lyrics yet.
**[16:10] Haruki**
Oh, thank God!
**[16:13] Ritsuka**
We can probably add in a drum fill here.
**[16:18] Mafuyu**
This is the part we wanted to
discuss with you, Haruki-san.
**[16:22] Haruki**
*Wait, hold up.*
**[16:23] Haruki**
* Mafuyu's really starting to*
* understand how music works.*
**[16:27] Haruki**
*When did he learn so much about it?*
**[16:30] Ritsuka**
We don't have any lyrics yet,
**[16:32] Ritsuka**
and we've only written up
until the first hook.
**[16:34] Haruki**
* They didn't even have to add*
* lyrics for me to realize it.*
**[16:39] Haruki**
*This is a love song.*
**[16:41] Haruki**
*He's a genius.*
**[16:43] Haruki**
*As the sound spreads, you can feel*
**[16:45] Haruki**
* the presence of a thousand*
* musical pieces behind it.*
**[16:47] Haruki**
* He actually put in the work*
* and listened to them.*
**[16:49] Haruki**
*Just calling him a genius is misleading.*
**[16:52] Haruki**
*But...*
**[16:54] Haruki**
* This feeling I get sometimes*
* where I feel like I'm clearly*
**[16:55] Ritsuka**
If we're gonna be judged in October,
**[16:57] Haruki**
*a different being than Uenoyama or Mafuyu...*
**[16:58] Ritsuka**
I'm thinking we can make
another song by then.
**[16:59] Haruki**
*It comes with a feeling of alienation.*
**[17:01] Ritsuka**
Even if the sessions are short, I want to
get into the studio as much as we can.
**[17:02] Haruki**
*Seriously... What even am I?*
**[17:05] Ritsuka**
So let's hold off on doing
live performances.
**[17:08] Haruki**
Huh? Yeah, uh... sure.
**[17:12] Mafuyu**
Thank you.

Hey.
**[17:42] Haruki**
What happened to your face?!
**[17:46] Akihiko**
Yeah, so I... sorta got
into it with my roommate.
**[17:51] Haruki**
"Got into it"?! You had a fist fight?!
**[17:54] Akihiko**
So I've been spending the night
at random places to get by.
**[17:57] Haruki**
Huh?!
**[17:58] Haruki**
You mean you haven't been home at all?!
**[18:01] Akihiko**
I mean, it hasn't been *that* long.
**[18:03] Haruki**
*He's like the old Akihiko.*
**[18:08] Akihiko**
How was the studio session today?
**[18:10] Haruki**
Oh... I listened to the new song.
**[18:13] Haruki**
They want to hold off on live performances
for a while to focus on songwriting.
**[18:17] Akihiko**
Guess we'll have to hit the studio
as much as possible, then.
**[18:20] Akihiko**
You have time during the summer, don't you?
**[18:24] Haruki**
Um...
**[18:27] Akihiko**
What? You have other plans?
**[18:29] Haruki**
N-No, I wouldn't actually call them plans...
**[18:34] Akihiko**
Are you hiding something?
**[18:37] Haruki**
Huh?
**[18:40] Akihiko**
What are you hiding?
**[18:41] Haruki**
Uh, what's with you?
**[18:42] Haruki**
Wait, why are you in such a bad mood?
**[18:45] Akihiko**
There has to be something.
**[18:46] Haruki**
I mean... Sort of...
**[18:51] Akihiko**
I don't wanna hear that from you.
**[18:55] Haruki**
Hey, that hurts!
**[18:56] Akihiko**
Just tell me.
**[18:59] Haruki**
My ex-girlfriend asked if I'd fill in
as a support bassist for a while!
**[19:03] Haruki**
This doesn't even concern you!
**[19:09] Akihiko**
So...
**[19:11] Akihiko**
Are you going? To your ex-girlfriend?
**[19:15] Akihiko**
Things are getting too hard, so you're
gonna abandon your current band.
**[19:18] Haruki**
That's not true...
I never said anything like—
**[19:22] Akihiko**
You...
**[19:25] Akihiko**
You're in love with me,
but you're gonna run away?
**[19:31] Haruki**
Wh-What are you talking about?
Wait, why are you...
**[19:35] Akihiko**
Why? Who cares anymore?
**[19:41] Akihiko**
Haruki...
**[19:43] Akihiko**
You keep mentioning an ex-girlfriend,
**[19:46] Akihiko**
but are you actually able to sleep
with any girls when you're like this?
**[19:50] Haruki**
*Screw you! You can't be serious!*
**[19:53] Haruki**
* I was sleeping with them*
* just fine before I met you!*
**[19:56] Haruki**
Wait...
**[20:00] Haruki**
Akihiko...
**[20:02] Haruki**
Aki—
**[20:05] Haruki**
No, wait, wait. Stop! You—
**[20:10] Akihiko**
* Damn. I'm just taking out*
* my frustration on him.*
***SIGN*** Ugetsu Murata
***SIGN*** I'm bringing home my new boyfriend.
So you'll have to find
a different save point today.
**[20:15] Akihiko**
* Even after separating,*
* Ugetsu and I would clash regularly.*
**[20:20] Akihiko**
* Like he keeps using those opportunities*
* to finally let go of me for good.*
**[20:28] Akihiko**
* Like he's trying to tell me*
* he doesn't need me*
**[20:31] Akihiko**
*and force me out of his world for good.*
**[20:36] Akihiko**
*Why?*
**[20:38] Akihiko**
*If you don't want me anymore,*
**[20:39] Akihiko**
* then why do you still accept*
* my attachment to you?*
**[20:42] Akihiko**
* If you feel so sorry for*
* me and my feelings,*
**[20:44] Akihiko**
*why are you trying to throw me away?*
**[20:47] Akihiko**
*I want to hold you.*
**[20:49] Akihiko**
*I want to run away.*
**[20:51] Akihiko**
*I want to give up on this.*
**[20:53] Akihiko**
*But I just can't let go of you.*
**[20:55] Akihiko**
*I want to touch you.*
**[20:58] Akihiko**
*And it hurts so much.*
**[21:06] Haruki**
Akihiko...
**[21:10] Haruki**
What is it? Please stop...
**[21:16] Haruki**
Don't make that face...
**[21:19] Haruki**
Please don't look so hurt...
**[21:22] Haruki**
What is it? Tell me, please.
**[21:26] Haruki**
I'll do anything for you.
**[21:33] Akihiko**
Telling you won't solve anything.
**[21:40] Akihiko**
I'm sorry.
**[21:42] Akihiko**
*Why couldn't it just be you?*
**[21:52] Akihiko**
I'm really sorry.
**[21:54] Akihiko**
This was completely my fault.
**[22:02] Haruki**
That's not what I want
you to apologize for.
**[22:07] Haruki**
I told you I'd do anything. In the end,
it was basically consensual.
**[22:12] Haruki**
You can spend the night tonight.
**[22:14] Akihiko**
What?
**[22:15] Haruki**
I'll go to a friend's place.
Just leave in the morning.
**[22:20] Haruki**
You can use whatever I have here.
**[22:23] Haruki**
Don't worry about locking
up when you leave.
**[22:25] Akihiko**
Haruki—
**[22:27] Haruki**
I'll hold off on filling in as bass.
**[22:30] Haruki**
So... just be gone in the morning.
**[22:38] Akihiko**
*Telling you won't solve anything.*
**[22:42] Akihiko**
*I'm sorry.*
**[22:53] Akihiko**
Shit!
**[22:58] Akihiko**
*I rely way too much on Haruki...*
**[23:01] Akihiko**
*How lame can I be? I have nowhere to go.*
***SIGN*** Akihiko
**[23:06] Akihiko**
*Basically...*
**[23:07] Akihiko**
* I haven't had a home ever since my parents*
* separated during my last year of high school.*
**[23:11] Akihiko**
* And right when I was trying*
* to figure out what to do...*
**[23:14] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
Why don't you come to my place, then?
**[23:18] Akihiko**
* From then on, I had a place to call*
* home that never got any sunlight.*
**[23:25] Akihiko**
*Whenever I fought with Ugetsu,*
**[23:27] Akihiko**
* I did whatever it took to find*
* another place to stay.*
**[23:30] Akihiko**
* It was pitiful and pathetic...*
* and I did things I can't even laugh about.*
**[23:36] Akihiko**
* But I just... didn't want Haruki*
* to find out about any of it.*
**[23:56] Take**
*Oh, God. Something happened.*
***SIGN*** Akihiko Kaji
***SIGN*** Thanks
***SIGN*** Hey
***SIGN*** Sorry, is Haruki at your place?
**[24:03] Take**
*Yeah, something definitely happened!*
***SIGN*** Yatake
**[24:07] Take**
What the hell happened to you?
**[24:09] Take**
Those dark circles are intense!
**[24:11] Haruki**
This barley tea is delicious.
**[24:13] Take**
Seriously, what's going on? It's painfully
obvious that something happened.
**[24:17] Haruki**
Please, sir, may I have some more?
**[24:19] Take**
Uh, are you even listening to me?
**[24:23] Haruki**
Take-chan.
**[24:25] Haruki**
You always cut your own hair,
don't you, Take-chan?
***SIGN*** Mafuyu Sato
***SIGN*** Sorry
***SIGN*** But is Haruki at your place?
***SIGN*** He's not
**[24:32] Akihiko**
*Shit.*
**[24:33] Akihiko**
*Haruki hasn't come home yet.*
**[24:36] Akihiko**
* I ended up waiting because I didn't want*
* to awkwardly bump into him, but...*
**[24:39] Akihiko**
*Should I go look for him?*
**[24:41] Akihiko**
*Wait, is he okay?*
**[24:42] Akihiko**
* Uh, do I need to put in*
* a missing person's report?*
**[24:51] Akihiko**
Haruki—
**[24:54] Haruki**
Oh. You're still here.
**[25:00] Ritsuka**
Huh?
**[25:01] Haruki**
Hey. Good morning.
**[25:04] Ritsuka**
Wh-What happened to your hair?!
**[25:06] Haruki**
It's been too hot, so I cut it.
**[25:09] (Flashback) Haruki**
You're still here.
**[25:12] (Flashback) Haruki**
Sorry, but as you can see, I'm pretty
exhausted since you rejected me.
**[25:16] (Flashback) Haruki**
Could you just go home?
**[25:18] (Flashback) Akihiko**
H-Hang on a sec—
**[25:22] (Flashback) Haruki**
Look. I'm actually mad here.
**[25:28] (Flashback) Akihiko**
Sorr—
**[25:28] (Flashback) Haruki**
I'm saying it pisses me off even more
when you apologize to me!
**[25:32] (Flashback) Haruki**
Just go home. For both of our sakes.
**[25:37] (Flashback) Akihiko**
I don't have anywhere I can go.
**[25:39] (Flashback) Haruki**
Huh?
**[25:40] (Flashback) Akihiko**
I seriously don't have anywhere
else I can go right now.
**[25:44] (Flashback) Akihiko**
I've been staying a few days
here and there...
**[25:47] (Flashback) Akihiko**
But I'd be pushing my luck
if I stayed longer...
**[25:50] (Flashback) Akihiko**
Could I stay here for a while—
**[25:52] (Flashback) Haruki**
Hell no!
**[25:54] (Flashback) Akihiko**
Right.
**[25:56] (Flashback) Akihiko**
I'll do all the housework...
And I'll sleep anywhere.
**[26:01] (Flashback) Akihiko**
Even the floor.
**[26:02] (Flashback) Haruki**
What?!
**[26:03] (Flashback) Akihiko**
I promise I won't try anything again.
**[26:05] (Flashback) Akihiko**
I was at my limit yesterday...
and I went too far.
**[26:10] (Flashback) Akihiko**
I'm sorry.
**[26:11] (Flashback) Akihiko**
Please help me.
**[26:16] (Flashback) Haruki**
I would've totally abandoned you
if we weren't in the same band.
**[26:27] Ritsuka**
Hey, wait, stop!
**[26:29] Ritsuka**
We're totally off today.
**[26:31] Ritsuka**
What the hell? Why are you in such
a bad mood, Haruki-san?
**[26:35] Akihiko**
*Yikes!*
**[26:37] Haruki**
Sorry, I'm just a bit off today.
**[26:40] Haruki**
But... I'll be fine.
**[26:47] Akihiko**
Hey!
**[26:48] Akihiko**
Haruki! Hey!
**[26:50] Haruki**
Stop following me.
**[26:53] Haruki**
*I'm so pathetic.*
**[26:56] Haruki**
*Everyone else looks like they're sparkling.*
**[27:00] Akihiko**
Haruki!
**[27:01] Haruki**
*I'm so lame.*
**[27:03] Haruki**
*It hurts.*
**[27:04] Akihiko**
Hey!
**[27:06] Haruki**
* It doesn't matter if it's music*
* or anything else...*
**[27:08] Haruki**
* Why am I always the one*
* who's so desperate?!*
**[27:10] Akihiko**
Damn it, wait!
**[27:13] Haruki**
Am I even necessary?!
**[27:16] Haruki**
I'm not a genius like everyone else.
**[27:19] Haruki**
And I was way off playing
with you guys today!
**[27:23] Haruki**
*I'm so pathetic. I want to disappear.*
**[27:26] Akihiko**
What?
**[27:27] Akihiko**
That's because you were looking down
the whole time you were playing.
**[27:32] Akihiko**
Of course you'd be off if you don't look up.
**[27:35] Akihiko**
You don't have to look in front of you,
but at least look at me.
**[27:39] Akihiko**
Being in a band is different
than being a solo artist.
**[27:42] Akihiko**
A band would never work
out with four geniuses.
**[27:47] Akihiko**
Someone has to be there to
support them, and we need you.
**[27:52] Akihiko**
I'm pretty sure I tell you that all the time.
**[27:59] Akihiko**
Any objections?
**[28:00] Haruki**
No...
**[28:02] Haruki**
Who the hell do you think you're talking to?
**[28:05] Akihiko**
What do you want for dinner?
**[28:07] Akihiko**
I'll make you something
if you're feeling down.
**[28:10] Akihiko**
I am a freeloader, after all.
**[28:12] Haruki**
You've got this mooching lifestyle down.
**[28:15] Akihiko**
Damn straight.
**[28:17] Haruki**
* And that was the start of*
* our bizarre life together.*
**[28:29] Haruki**
* Akihiko was far louder*
* than I could've ever imagined.*
***SIGN*** Please accept this meal
**[28:43] Mafuyu**
Our bass and drums are
really in sync lately.
**[28:46] Haruki**
Oh, really?
**[28:47] Mafuyu**
Did something happen?
**[28:49] Haruki**
No, not really.
**[28:59] Haruki**
* It was just obvious to me that*
* Akihiko could do anything.*
**[29:04] Haruki**
* I guess I wasn't actually paying*
* attention to Akihiko at all.*
**[29:11] Haruki**
* It's really not fair that*
* I can't actually hate him.*
**[29:26] Haruki**
Oh, right.
**[29:27] Haruki**
Today's the fireworks festival.
**[29:30] Haruki**
This place is pretty high up,
**[29:31] Haruki**
so you get a good view, even from far away.
**[29:34] Akihiko**
Must be nice.
**[29:36] Haruki**
You couldn't see them from your place?
**[29:38] Akihiko**
Not at all.
**[29:40] Akihiko**
I mean, the place was half underground.
**[29:42] Akihiko**
I didn't even know they did
fireworks around this time for Bon.
**[29:46] Akihiko**
It's sorta freaking me out, actually.
**[29:51] Haruki**
Didn't you ever go see fireworks with... them?
**[29:55] Akihiko**
Nope.
**[29:58] Akihiko**
But these are prettier
than I thought they'd be.
**[30:09] Akihiko**
We're pretty much done.
**[30:12] Akihiko**
More like I was basically a friend
with benefits and a freeloader.
**[30:15] Akihiko**
We weren't technically dating.
**[30:18] Akihiko**
He dumped me a long time ago,
**[30:20] Akihiko**
and I'm just left dangling.
**[30:26] Haruki**
What the hell? You're totally
in love with him, though.
**[30:31] Akihiko**
I sure was.
**[30:33] Akihiko**
But now... it just hurts.
**[30:45] Akihiko**
Hey... Thanks for letting me stay here.
**[30:51] Haruki**
You're welcome.
**[30:57] All**
Great job today!
**[30:59] Ritsuka**
We don't have lyrics yet, but...
**[31:02] Mafuyu**
Yeah.
**[31:03] Akihiko**
I'll send the recording to you guys later.
**[31:05] Akihiko**
Make sure you all check your parts.
**[31:07] Both**
Okay.
**[31:09] Akihiko**
Haruki, you got plans after this?
**[31:12] Haruki**
Nope.
**[31:13] Akihiko**
I'm gonna hit the drums a bit more.
Wanna help me practice?
**[31:16] Haruki**
Where'd this come from?
**[31:18] Akihiko**
I'm just having a lot of fun.
**[31:24] Ritsuka**
I think we need a different approach.
**[31:27] Mafuyu**
Huh?
**[31:28] Ritsuka**
To the lyrics.
**[31:30] Ritsuka**
You said you wanted to write
a different kind of song.
**[31:35] Mafuyu**
It's not like I don't have any ideas at all.
**[31:39] Mafuyu**
But when I feel like I've almost got it,
**[31:42] Mafuyu**
I keep feeling there's a piece missing.
**[31:46] Ritsuka**
Then why don't you go look for it?
**[31:49] Ritsuka**
You're the type that gets inspiration
from your own feelings
**[31:52] Ritsuka**
or what's going on with
the people around you.
**[31:58] Haruki**
Yikes...
**[32:00] Haruki**
Yeah, the last train took off ages ago.
**[32:03] Haruki**
It's such a waste to call a cab.
**[32:06] Akihiko**
And that's why we walk.
**[32:07] Haruki**
Huh?
**[32:08] Akihiko**
We just walk.
**[32:10] Haruki**
Wait, what? You mean
all the way to my place?
**[32:13] Haruki**
Are you insane?
**[32:14] Akihiko**
It'd probably take us about an hour.
**[32:17] Haruki**
Are you nuts?
**[32:18] Akihiko**
No, really. An hour goes by fast.
**[32:21] Haruki**
Seriously...
**[32:22] Haruki**
You think like a 20-year-old college student.
**[32:28] Haruki**
Come on, stop that.
**[32:30] Haruki**
How'd you even find that?
**[32:33] Akihiko**
It was hanging off some grass.
**[32:35] Akihiko**
It's a dragonfly.
**[32:36] Haruki**
Put the poor thing back.
**[32:39] Akihiko**
Aww.
**[32:40] Haruki**
What are you, five?
**[32:42] Akihiko**
Bugs are awesome, though.
**[32:44] Haruki**
Well, I guess I used to catch them
all the time when I was a kid.
**[32:47] Haruki**
Oniyanma dragonflies and stuff.
**[32:50] Haruki**
Was that the first train?
**[32:52] Akihiko**
I believe so.
**[32:53] Haruki**
You idiot! This is all because
you kept taking detours!
**[33:08] Haruki**
I'm so sweaty.
**[33:10] Haruki**
I don't want to take another step.
**[33:12] Akihiko**
I guess I'll at least take a shower.
**[33:15] Haruki**
Wow, good boy.
**[33:17] Haruki**
I can't anymore.
**[33:33] Haruki**
I'm home.
**[33:35] Akihiko**
Welcome back.
**[33:38] Akihiko**
What?
**[33:39] Haruki**
I was just thinking you play
your violin more than I realized.
**[33:44] Akihiko**
Nah, I don't practice near as much
as someone who's hardcore.
**[33:47] Haruki**
Really?
**[33:49] Haruki**
Come to think of it, isn't there some
famous musician from our school?
**[33:53] Haruki**
He plays the violin...
What was his name again?
**[33:56] Haruki**
Oh, Ugetsu Murata.
**[34:06] Mafuyu**
Um, I...
**[34:11] Ugetsu**
Ah...
**[34:13] Ugetsu**
Jeez, you scared me.
**[34:15] Mafuyu**
Oh, sorry.
**[34:16] Mafuyu**
Your door was unlocked,
and I heard a loud noise.
**[34:20] Ugetsu**
I thought Akihiko came home.
**[34:23] Mafuyu**
Wait, Kaji-san's not here?
**[34:27] Ugetsu**
Did you come here to see Akihiko?
**[34:29] Mafuyu**
I-I came to see you, Ugetsu-san!
**[34:33] Ugetsu**

Sure.

So, hey.
**[36:52] Akihiko**
I'm leaving this place.
**[36:57] Akihiko**
I came by to at least grab
my long-sleeved clothes today.
**[37:02] Ugetsu**
Oh. I see.
**[37:05] Akihiko**
Yeah.
**[37:09] Akihiko**
Your room is way too messy.
**[37:11] Ugetsu**
Shut up.
**[37:13] Akihiko**
Want me to make you
some food before I leave?
**[37:16] Ugetsu**
Who are you, my mom?
**[37:20] Ugetsu**
Why? Why are you leaving now?
**[37:27] Akihiko**
Music's actually been fun lately.
**[37:31] Akihiko**
I continued playing the violin
so I could be your equal.
**[37:36] Akihiko**
I was convinced that this was all I had,
**[37:40] Akihiko**
and that you were all I had.
**[37:43] Akihiko**
But I was suffering that whole time.
**[37:46] Akihiko**
When you said you wanted to break up with me,
I wanted to run to something else.
**[37:51] Akihiko**
When I started the drums to spite you,
**[37:54] Akihiko**
I thought it was easier
than doing classical music.
**[37:58] Akihiko**
My overall passion for music
was pretty much gone.
**[38:00] Akihiko**
But...
**[38:04] Akihiko**
I want to leave this place.
**[38:07] Akihiko**
I want to leave here and play different music.

**[38:54] Haruki**
Huh?
**[38:55] Mafuyu**
But it's hard watching you two sometimes.
**[38:59] Haruki**
Huh?
**[39:00] Mafuyu**
Because, I mean...
**[39:02] Mafuyu**
You're in love with Kaji-san, right?
**[39:08] Haruki**
Have I always been that obvious?
**[39:11] Mafuyu**
Well, sort of.
**[39:13] Haruki**
I-I see...
**[39:16] Haruki**
But it's okay.
**[39:18] Haruki**
He's just staying over for a while.
**[39:21] Haruki**
There's nothing going on between us.
**[39:23] Haruki**
I crashed and burned, so I don't
feel that way anymore.
**[39:27] Mafuyu**
Really?
**[39:30] Haruki**
What?
**[39:36] Haruki**
* I mean, it's not like my feelings for*
* him just suddenly disappeared.*
**[39:43] Haruki**
* But knowing that the one you like*
* doesn't want anything from you*
**[39:47] Haruki**
*hurts.*
**[39:53] Akihiko**
Welcome back.
**[40:00] Haruki**
What are you doing?
**[40:02] ---**
Mm.
**[40:03] Haruki**
Did you forget your key?
**[40:05] Akihiko**
No, I have it.
**[40:08] Haruki**
What happened to your face?
**[40:09] Akihiko**
Mm.
**[40:11] Akihiko**
Haruki.
**[40:13] Haruki**
What?
**[40:15] Akihiko**
I'm home.
**[40:21] Haruki**
Just so you know,
**[40:23] Haruki**
I'm still mad at you, but let me
calm down over a smoke first.
**[40:31] Haruki**
Huh?
**[40:34] Haruki**
I'm gonna run to the convenience stor—
**[40:37] Haruki**
Huh?!
**[40:39] Akihiko**
Don't go right now.
**[40:45] Akihiko**
Stay right here with me.
**[40:50] Mafuyu**
That was amazing.
**[40:52] Ritsuka**
Yeah, it was.
**[40:55] Ritsuka**
They were all really good.
**[40:59] Ritsuka**
What?
**[41:00] Ritsuka**
Wh-What?! Wh-What is it?!
**[41:05] Mafuyu**
What should I do?
I'm starting to get nervous.
**[41:07] Ritsuka**
What?! You actually get nervous?
**[41:10] Mafuyu**
I start to wonder if I'll be able to sing
this right or not... and I get scared.
**[41:16] Mafuyu**
I want to get these feelings across.
I want them to understand.
**[41:21] Mafuyu**
I think I'm getting a little greedy.
**[41:25] Ritsuka**
You've changed...
**[41:29] Ritsuka**
At first, you were like, "I can't join a band.
I'm not thinking about anything.
**[41:33] Ritsuka**
I can't express myself." You were all hesitant.
**[41:40] Ritsuka**
Come here.
**[41:44] Ritsuka**
Don't worry. You're way cooler than anyone else.
**[41:48] Mafuyu**
Yes, sir.
**[41:49] Ritsuka**
Why the "sir"?
**[41:58] Guy**
Thanks. Could we get some bass next?
**[42:05] Ugetsu**
*Why...*
**[42:06] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
You're going to abandon
the violin just like that?!
**[42:12] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
Whatever.
**[42:14] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
Get out.
**[42:19] Akihiko**
* Maybe if I just gave up on music,*
* everything in my life would work out.*
**[42:27] Haruki**
Come on, now.
**[42:29] Haruki**
Look at that pathetic face.
**[42:32] Staff**
*Number 14, given, you're up.*
**[42:38] Mafuyu**
* Before, it took everything*
* I had to let my own words out.*
**[42:45] PA**
Come on, get started.
**[42:47] Staff**
He's really building up to it.
**[42:51] Mafuyu**
*My feelings for Uenoyama-kun.*
**[42:53] Mafuyu**
*My love. Someone else's love.*
**[42:57] Mafuyu**
*New music.*
**[42:59] Mafuyu**
*Having others resonate with you.*
**[43:32] Akihiko**
*What was that just now?*
**[43:44] Akihiko**
*This feeling...*
**[43:47] Akihiko**
*It's almost like...*
**[44:18] Akihiko**
*Seriously?*
**[44:21] Akihiko**
*Damn.*
**[44:23] Akihiko**
* How long has it been since*
* I got goosebumps like this?*
**[44:29] Akihiko**
*When...*
**[44:32] Akihiko**
*When did I start hating music?*
**[44:43] Akihiko**
*I loved it so much.*
**[44:47] Akihiko**
* But when I heard Ugetsu*
* play for the first time,*
**[44:50] Akihiko**
*I had the same goosebumps I have right now.*
**[44:56] Akihiko**
*Yeah... I love music.*
**[45:06] Ugetsu**
*Ah...*
**[45:09] Ugetsu**
*When I saw their performance last time,*
**[45:12] Ugetsu**
* I had a feeling that if he had*
* some kind of trigger,*
**[45:15] Ugetsu**
*he could really turn into something.*
**[45:19] Ugetsu**
* I guess this is where I got*
* to see the answer.*
**[45:26] Ugetsu**
*Oh, I see...*
**[45:30] Ugetsu**
*So he's the one.*
**[46:24] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
Over and over, I've thought about what
I'd do if Akihiko never came back.
**[46:31] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
No matter how many times I thought
about it, I couldn't imagine it clearly.
**[46:38] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
I'd think he'd suddenly come
home tomorrow... or maybe not.
**[46:45] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
But at the same time,
**[46:47] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
I want this pain to end just as much.
**[46:55] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
But at the same time,
**[46:58] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
I don't want all the things
filling this room to disappear.
**[47:08] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
Maybe something will remain.
**[47:12] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
Even if we can never be the same again...
**[47:15] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
Even if we go somewhere far away...
**[47:18] (Flashback) Ugetsu**
I hope at least the music will remain.
**[47:27] Mafuyu**
*It'll be okay.*
**[47:30] Mafuyu**
*You'll be able to go wherever you want.*
**[47:37] Mafuyu**
*Let this reach you!*
**[47:47] Mafuyu**
Thank you so much.
**[47:57] Guy**
Can we have the next act get ready?
**[48:01] Akihiko**
Haruki!
**[48:03] Akihiko**
I need to go see someone off to the station!
**[48:06] Haruki**
Sure, but the next act is gonna start soon.
**[48:09] Akihiko**
I'll be right back!
**[48:15] Haruki**
I'll see you in a bit.
**[48:28] Akihiko**
Ugetsu!
**[48:29] Akihiko**
Hey, Ugetsu!
**[48:31] Akihiko**
Hey, stop!
**[48:32] Ugetsu**
No.
**[48:33] Akihiko**
Huh?! Wha—
**[48:35] Ugetsu**
Because... if I stop, you're going to
talk about breaking up, aren't you?
**[48:39] Ugetsu**
You did great on the drums.
**[48:42] Ugetsu**
Seemed delicate as usual, though.
**[48:45] Akihiko**
Hey!
**[48:49] Akihiko**
Hey, listen to me!
**[48:54] Akihiko**
I... love the violin!
**[48:57] Akihiko**
Playing the drums is fun,
**[49:00] Akihiko**
but everything I poured
into playing violin isn't a lie!
**[49:04] Ugetsu**
What the hell?
**[49:06] Ugetsu**
So you *are* breaking up with me.
**[49:10] Akihiko**
Yeah.
**[49:12] Akihiko**
Sorry.
**[49:14] Akihiko**
And I'm sorry for how much
I've hurt you over the years.
**[49:18] Akihiko**
Thank you.
**[49:21] Ugetsu**
I'll be rooting for you.
**[49:26] Ugetsu**
I get it, so could you just let go?
**[49:51] Mafuyu**
*It'll be okay.*
**[49:58] Ugetsu**
Bye-bye, Akihiko.
**[50:05] Haruki**
You sure you'll be okay?
**[50:06] Haruki**
You've got a place to stay?
**[50:08] Akihiko**
Yeah.
**[50:10] Akihiko**
Thank you for everything.
**[50:13] Haruki**
* After all that, we failed in*
* the very last stage of judging.*
**[50:19] Haruki**
* It's not like we actually*
* thought we'd make it,*
**[50:21] Haruki**
*but we didn't think we'd fail, either.*
**[50:23] Haruki**
*It was super frustrating...*
**[50:26] Haruki**
*But we had a lot of people approach us.*
**[50:29] Haruki**
* Akihiko started showing up at the studio*
* all prepared before anyone else.*
**[50:34] Haruki**
*He quit all his part-time jobs,*
**[50:36] Haruki**
* and I started seeing him*
* at school more often.*
**[50:41] Haruki**
*Then we rang in the new year.*
**[50:44] Haruki**
* I kept playing with given while filling*
* in as bassist for another band*
**[50:48] Haruki**
*and played quite a few shows.*
**[50:51] Akihiko**
Haruki!
**[50:53] Akihiko**
Here! This is for you!
**[50:55] Haruki**
Uh... Thanks...
**[50:57] Haruki**
You've been acting weird lately.
**[50:59] Akihiko**
Yeah, sure. You're welcome.
**[51:03] Haruki**
*And then spring arrived.*
**[51:06] Haruki**
*Akihiko entered a violin competition.*
**[51:10] Haruki**
*Somewhere deep down,*
**[51:12] Haruki**
* I didn't think Akihiko had that*
* kind of intense passion in him.*
**[51:17] Haruki**
*Wait... Was Akihiko Kaji always like this?*
**[51:23] Haruki**
Sorry. I'm not feeling well,
so I'm gonna head home.
**[51:27] Mafuyu**
Huh?
**[51:33] Haruki**
*Akihiko changed.*
**[51:35] Haruki**
* And I ended up imagining who could've*
* been the one to change him.*
**[51:41] Haruki**
Akihiko?
**[51:43] Akihiko**
Seriously!
**[51:44] Akihiko**
You should've told me you'd be there!
**[51:46] Akihiko**
I noticed you while I was on
and almost said something!
**[51:48] Akihiko**
Seriously, why were you there?!
**[51:51] Haruki**
Mafuyu just invited me out
of nowhere this morning...
**[51:54] Akihiko**
I was so embarrassed!
So God damn embarrassed!
**[51:58] Haruki**
Huh? But you looked really cool and all...
**[52:00] Akihiko**
Well, thanks! How are you feeling?!
**[52:03] Haruki**
Uh, yeah...
**[52:05] Haruki**
How'd the results go?
**[52:11] Akihiko**
I placed fourth.
**[52:12] Haruki**
Huh? Congrats?
**[52:14] Akihiko**
It's not actually that great.
**[52:17] Akihiko**
But... thanks.
**[52:22] Akihiko**
I ended up breaking up with Ugetsu,
the guy I was in love with.
**[52:27] Haruki**
Huh?
**[52:28] Haruki**
You just up and left my place, so I thought...
**[52:31] Akihiko**
Actually, I ended up
apologizing to my parents
**[52:34] Akihiko**
and asked if they could
help me out with some cash.
**[52:36] Haruki**
Then you started getting really
serious about the violin!
**[52:39] Akihiko**
That's because... I'd been
running away all this time,
**[52:43] Akihiko**
so I wanted to see just how much I could do.
**[52:45] Haruki**
And you suddenly started
acting all distant with me!
**[52:48] Akihiko**
That's because...
**[52:49] Haruki**
And you just kept on changing!
**[52:51] Akihiko**
Ugh, would you shut up for a second?!
**[52:53] Akihiko**
The reason I decided to make
changes in my life was because...
**[52:56] Akihiko**
I wanted to become a man
worthy of your love!
**[53:17] Akihiko**
Haruki.
**[53:20] Akihiko**
Haruki...
**[53:22] Akihiko**
May I touch you?
**[53:31] Haruki**
Sure.
**[53:35] Akihiko**
I love you.
**[53:37] Akihiko**
Please go out with me.
**[58:29] Akihiko**
Sorry, I rushed that.
**[58:32] Akihiko**
I'm lame, I don't play fair,
and I'm a brat...
**[58:36] Akihiko**
I may end up hurting you again,
**[58:39] Akihiko**
and Uenoyama might yell at me again...
**[58:42] Akihiko**
But ever since I heard Mafuyu's
song, I wanted to change.
**[58:51] Akihiko**
So let me try that aga—
**[58:52] Haruki**
Okay, I get it.
**[58:53] Akihiko**
Huh?
**[58:57] Haruki**
Sure.
**[59:00] Akihiko**
For real?
**[59:02] Haruki**
For real.
**[59:04] Haruki**
*Mafuyu's song is like magic.*
**[59:07] Haruki**
*It makes me want to give love another try.*
**[59:11] Haruki**
Ah, Akihiko...
**[59:15] Haruki**
Let's go home.
**[59:19] Haruki**
*I fell in love one autumn.*
**[59:22] Haruki**
* This is an ordinary love story*
* that took place one ordinary spring.*

We can't go back anymore
This new pain we felt
while waiting for the spring
We jumbled our love
and dreams into it and ran
These scars we gained while
playfully messing around
That seem to fade but just won't disappear
We'll be walking away from a place
That's different from
where we piled them on
Putting the days we spent sobbing behind us
I'm going to go
See? Just watch me
We laughed during the fun times
We got mad over misunderstandings
I'm going to make our dream come true
Whenever I'm sad,
whenever I'm in a lot of pain
I'll use the memories I recall
and the time we spent together
As a backrest for my heart to lean on
The next time we look behind us
I hope we can still smile
and wave at each other
Even if we wander deep into the forest
The sunlight lets us know
that the dawn is coming
Even if we can't see it
The past, future, and present hold hands
Shining upon the next night
I'm right here
Please come to my side
The desires I left behind still linger
Even though I go through life
putting up a strong front
When I want to see you,
when I want to embrace you
I'll use the memories I recall
and the time we spent together
To guide me through the future I can't see
When I scream in despair
That I want to disappear or run away
Even on the worst of days
When I loathed encounters and miracles
Since I can't pretend they never happened
I hope that in the end, I can at least feel
That I'm still glad to be alive
We can't go back anymore
I'm going to go
See? Just watch me
I'm going to find something
more important than you
Because you're the most
important person to me
When I want to see you,
when I want to embrace you
I'll use the memories I recall
and the time we spent together
As a backrest for my heart to lean on
I'll sing these precious feelings
for you over and over
And I'll make them into
a theme song just for us
# Yoru ga Akeru (夜が明ける)
Even if I can't sleep, a new day will dawn
And I sit here staring at it
Even though this white wall is unchanging
The morning sun shines on it,
and the clock moves forward
I keep moving further away
From the seasons we spent together
Yet I just want to drift through
This night
Even if I can't sleep, a new day will dawn
And I sit here staring at it
The things that are changing,
the things that are ending
The things that are about to begin
Even though you're gone, I can go on living
In the end, that makes me sad
See? Soon now, a new day will dawn
A new day will dawn
It blooms in the spring
and withers in the fall
But still, it sprouts again, over and over
I realize that it's not what has passed
But what's about to happen
Even if I can't sleep, a new day will dawn
I'll eventually have to let go of your hand
Even if I'm left at a loss
and cry my eyes out
I'll eventually stop crying
Even though you're gone, I can go on living
Even if I can't be loved,
I still want to see you
See? Soon now, a new day will dawn
A new day will dawn
When there's a wish that we
don't know will ever come true
We call it hope
Even though you're gone,
a new day will dawn
My hand is empty now, but one day
I'll find another hand to hold
After the long night, we discover the light
That's why even if we're
scared, we can live on
So long as the sun rises,
we can take that step forward again
See? Soon now, a new day will dawn
So don't worry
See? Not long now,
it's just around the corner
A new day will dawn
