[01:13] Ritsuka
    I was checking out what's
    gonna be on our finals.
[01:40] Ritsuka
    Do you have a lot of shifts
    lined up during spring break?
[01:45] Mafuyu
    No, not yet.
[01:47] Ritsuka
    Ah...
[01:54] Mafuyu
    What about you?
[01:55] Ritsuka
    Same.
[01:57] Ritsuka
    We definitely want...
    some studio time, right?
[02:00] Mafuyu
    Yeah.
[02:02] Ritsuka
    We can go look at more effects pedals again.
[02:06] Mafuyu
    Yeah.
[02:27] (Flashback) Teacher
    Make sure you all take just
    one sheet of origami paper.
[02:30] (Flashback) Kid A
    This one's mine!
[02:31] (Flashback) Kid B
    No, it's mine!
[02:33] (Flashback) Teacher
    This isn't first come, first served.
[02:35] (Flashback) Teacher
    If there's a color you want,
    ask politely to switch.
[02:38] (Flashback) Yuki
    I want silver!
[02:40] (Flashback) Kid C
    No fair! You always get it!
[02:42] (Flashback) Yuki
    What? It's totally fair!
[02:44] (Flashback) Kid C
    I want the silver one, too!
[02:45] (Flashback) Teacher
    Oh?
[02:46] (Flashback) Teacher
    Shizusumi-kun, you picked
    the same color again.
[02:50] (Flashback) Teacher
    Don't you want gold like all the other kids?
[02:54] (Flashback) Shizusumi
    I just need one.
[02:56] (Flashback) Shizusumi
    I don't need any more.
[02:58] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    What?! You've never gotten the gold one?!
[03:51] Hiiragi
    Mafuyu.
[03:54] Hiiragi
    Hey, is he around?
[03:57] Mafuyu
    Hiiragi...
[04:00] Mafuyu
    And Shizu-chan.
[04:06] Hiiragi
    What I'm telling you is
[04:07] Hiiragi
    Mafuyu's more like a little brother
    than a childhood friend.
[04:12] Ritsuka
    Okay, and?
[04:13] Hiiragi
    And, I'm saying that I know Mafuyu
    a hundred times better than you!
[04:18] Ritsuka
    Oh, yeah? Does how long
    you've known him really matter?
[04:22] Ritsuka
    Actually, Mafuyu was saying you
    were like a little sister to him.
[04:26] Hiiragi
    I'mma kill his ass!
[04:27] Ritsuka
    Also, how is that related to
    you playing the wrong note?
[04:31] Hiiragi
    I'm saying there's something
    fundamentally wrong with you
[04:34] Hiiragi
    if you can't just play along with me!
[04:38] Hiiragi
    And you thought I sounded
    better, right, Shizu?!
[04:43] Shizusumi
    Yeah.
[04:43] Hiiragi
    Can you at least pretend
    you give a crap about me?!
[04:45] Ritsuka
    Shut up! Back the hell off!
[04:49] Ritsuka
    And Mafuyu's got nothing to do with this!
[04:51] Hiiragi
    It's pissing me off that you're
    acting all smug as his boyfriend
[04:53] Hiiragi
    when you're not willing
     to work with others at all!
[04:57] Ritsuka
    Fine, then you need to work with me first!
[04:59] Hiiragi
    You need to be able to figure me out!
[05:01] Ritsuka
    Why, though?!
[05:02] Mafuyu
    Uenoyama-kun, it's almost time.
[05:05] Mafuyu
    And stop fighting, you two.
[05:08] Ritsuka
    We're not.
[05:10] Mafuyu
    We have studio time with given next.
[05:15] Ritsuka
    Okay, see you the day after tomorrow.
    Have a pleasant day!
[05:18] Hiiragi
    Right back at you!
[05:20] Shizusumi
    Bye.
[05:25] Hiiragi
    God, we're viscerally incompatible!
[05:29] Hiiragi
    Why does he act like he's
    God's gift to the world?!
[05:33] Shizusumi
    I guess like repels like.
[05:35] Ritsuka
    We clearly can't get along.
[05:38] Ritsuka
    I absolutely despise guys
    who only think of themselves.
[05:43] Mafuyu
    I guess like repels like.
[05:45] Mafuyu
    You really can't figure out
     how to play together?
[05:47] Ritsuka
    No... Actually, when our sound's
    together, it's really together...
[05:51] Mafuyu
    So they can, then.
[05:54] Mafuyu
    Then can I ask...
[05:55] Mafuyu
    why you agreed to help Hiiragi out?
[06:02] Ritsuka
    Why? Because...
[06:05] Ritsuka
    They sounded way more badass
    than I could've imagined.
[06:11] Ritsuka
    I've always hated sellouts.
[06:18] Ritsuka
    At least, that's what I thought.
[06:21] Ritsuka
    It's not just the fact that they're good.
[06:24] Ritsuka
    Even the pauses between
    the sound were thrilling.
[06:29] Ritsuka
    Once in a while, it'd go against
    everything I know and just felt good.
[06:32] Ritsuka
    It was just good.
[06:35] Ritsuka
    In fall of our second year in high school,
    Hiiragi's band won at CAC
[06:37] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    Honestly, I knew we were gonna win!
[06:39] Ritsuka
    and they were gonna debut
    because of that.
[06:40] (Flashback) Crowd
    Whatever, man!
[06:42] Ritsuka
    But then their session guitarist left.
[06:42] (Flashback) Crowd
    Congrats!
[06:44] (Flashback) Crowd
    You guys were awesome!
[06:48] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    That said, we definitely felt some pressure
    since we're in the amateur rankings.
[06:49] Ritsuka
    When they were trying to fill that position,
    the one who got the call was...
[06:55] (Flashback) Ritsuka
    Me?!
[06:56] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    We just need you until
    we find our next guitarist.
[07:00] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    You'll just fill in for now.
[07:01] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    For, like, two shows, maybe.
[07:04] (Flashback) Ritsuka
    If your other guitarist quit,
    you don't need to do shows right now.
[07:07] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    Of course we do. Gotta strike
    while the iron's hot.
[07:10] (Flashback) Ritsuka
    Okay, but why me?
[07:12] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    Because I saw you play at CAC,
[07:15] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    and it made me want to play with you.
[07:20] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    More importantly, why are
    you even here today?
[07:22] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    What? Were you bored?
[07:24] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    Did the little high schooler come
    to see his first little concert?
[07:28] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    I mean, I'm inviting you to play with us.
[07:31] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    And...
[07:33] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    There's something I want
    to try doing with you.
[07:40] Ritsuka
    In the end, the reason I agreed
    to be their session guitarist is...
[07:45] [SONG] Song
    No need for ambiguous sensations
[07:47] Ritsuka
    because it seemed like it'd
    be a hell of a lot of fun.
[07:50] [SONG] Song
    Beyond the media
[07:52] Ritsuka
    Yeah. What it comes down to is...
[07:56] [SONG] Song
    Deconstructed and reconstructed
[07:58] Ritsuka
    Hiiragi's got what it takes.
[08:01] [SONG] Song
    Thoughts are mostly the same
[08:05] [SONG] Song
    Let this voice carry through now
[08:08] [SONG] Song
    Remember the memories back in the day
[08:11] [SONG] Song
    On a blank piece of paper
[08:13] [SONG] Song
    You could draw anything
[08:16] [SONG] Song
    Let it boom so that the color won't fade
[08:19] [SONG] Song
    Imitation of hope will come to an end
[08:21] [SONG] Song
    And I'll be singing until it reaches you

[08:38] Fan A
    Um, this is for you.
[08:39] Hiiragi
    Hey, a gift? Thanks!
[08:43] Hiiragi
    Wait, can I really have this?
[08:45] Fan A
    Yes! Please use it if you want to.
[08:47] Fan B
    Can I get a picture with you?
[08:49] Hiiragi
    A picture? Sure.
[08:53] Hiiragi
    Hey, Uenoyama!
[08:58] Ritsuka
    Haruki-san?! And Sis?!
[09:00] Haruki
    Heya.
[09:02] Ritsuka
    What're— Wait, it's just the two of you?
[09:05] Haruki
    We met at the door. We're guests today.
[09:09] Haruki
    Because we helped shoot
    their music video the other day.
[09:13] Ritsuka
    Ah... Wait, then where's Take-san?
[09:16] Yayoi
    Working overtime.
[09:17] Yayoi
    What about you? Where's that boy
    who looks like a Pomeranian?
[09:21] Ritsuka
    Huh? Oh, Mafuyu?
[09:24] Ritsuka
    He's got work today.
[09:26] Yayoi
    Huh...
[09:28] Yayoi
    Well, I'm gonna go say bye
    to everyone and head home.
[09:36] Haruki
    Well, anyway...
[09:37] Haruki
    Great job tonight. You were awesome.
[09:41] Ritsuka
    Thanks.
[09:42] Ritsuka
    Kaji-san's not with you today?
[09:46] Haruki
    I guess he's been busy with the violin lately.
[09:52] Ritsuka
    We're all split up lately.
[09:54] Hiiragi
    Could we group him in next time?
[09:57] Fan B/C
    Sure, of course!
[09:58] Hiiragi
    Thanks!
[09:59] Haruki
    Anyway, shouldn't you be over there?
[10:01] Ritsuka
    Nah. I can't keep up
    with Hiiragi's social circles.
[10:07] Hiiragi
    Oh! Matsumura-san! You came!
[10:10] Ritsuka
    I mean, Hiiragi's definitely
    got charm and he's a fun guy...
[10:10] Hiiragi
    Thanks so much!
    I'll come by to say hi later.
[10:14] Ritsuka
    But I want my own band to get recognized.
[10:18] Haruki
    Huh?
[10:19] Ritsuka
    I'm jealous of him.
[10:21] Ritsuka
    Sometimes it really pisses me off.
[10:25] Haruki
    Uh, yeah... Actually, about that...
[10:30] Haruki
    We actually got an offer
    to debut... as given.
[10:35] Haruki
    By someone from a record label.
[10:38] Ritsuka
    Huh?
[10:39] Haruki
    Ah... I... got contacted today...
[10:44] Ritsuka
    What?!
[10:46] Ritsuka
    To debut?!
[10:47] Haruki
    Er, uh, wait!
[10:49] Haruki
    It's not guaranteed that
    we'll be able to debut.
[10:53] Haruki
    They just asked if we were
    interested in debuting.
[10:56] Haruki
    They gave me a business card at CAC
[10:59] Haruki
    and said to reach out if we're interested.
[11:02] Haruki
    I don't know if anything would
     happen immediately, but...
[11:07] Ritsuka
    Huh? Wait, did you reply?
[11:09] Haruki
    No. I've only told you so far.
[11:14] Hiiragi
    They're huge. Sounds good to me.
[11:17] Ritsuka
    Hey! Were you listening—
[11:19] Hiiragi
    You're the one who was just
    shouting something about a debut.
[11:22] Hiiragi
    You should be more aware
    of your surroundings.
[11:24] Ritsuka
    Wha—
[11:25] Haruki
    I'm gonna talk to Akihiko about it.
    You should ask Mafuyu.
[11:30] Haruki
    Ask about his future plans,
[11:31] Haruki
    and just how far he wants to go with music.
[11:36] Haruki
    Anyway, I'll forward you the email later.
[11:39] Haruki
    See ya!
[11:44] Ritsuka
    The future?
[11:45] Hiiragi
    Huh? Why the hell do you look like
    you've never thought about it before?
[11:50] Ritsuka
    I have.
[11:52] Ritsuka
    I mean, I have thought about it, but...
[11:54] Shizusumi
    Hey.
[11:55] Shizusumi
    It's almost time.
[11:56] Hiiragi
    Sure.
[12:01] Ritsuka
    Hiiragi! Did you...
[12:05] Ritsuka
    Did you ever feel conflicted?
    About how you want to live right now?
[12:12] Hiiragi
    Not really.
[12:13] Hiiragi
    But now you've got an opportunity, right?
[12:16] Hiiragi
    You should be happier, dude.
[12:19] Ritsuka
    Be happier?
[12:21] Ritsuka
    Yeah, this is causing my stomach to turn.
[12:25] Ritsuka
    We didn't win at CAC.
[12:27] Ritsuka
    I was envious of Hiiragi, since he got to debut.
[12:31] Ritsuka
    But now, I'm so excited I'm about to burst.
[12:36] Ritsuka
    Seriously?
[12:38] Ritsuka
    Isn't this actually cool as hell?
[12:45] First-year Girl A
    Oh, hey. I know him. That's Mafuyu-senpai.
[12:49] First-year girl B
    Oh, he's in a band, right?
[12:51] First-year Girl C
    Is he famous?
[12:53] First-year girl B
    I think his band was in some festival.
[12:55] First-year girl C
    Whoa, awesome.
[12:56] First-year girl A
    I want a picture with him!
[12:57] First-year girl B
    Right?
[13:00] Itaya
    Hey!
[13:01] Itaya
    Mafuyu!
[13:04] Itaya
    Uenoyama's looking for you.
[13:10] Mafuyu
    De...but?
SIGN    Sato
[13:12] Ritsuka
    Haruki-san asked if we'd planned on it.
[13:17] Ritsuka
    And, like, if we want to keep
    doing music in the future.
[13:21] Ritsuka
    And what we want to actually
    do in the future, and stuff.
[13:25] Ritsuka
    I'm genuinely super happy about this.
[13:29] Ritsuka
    Hey, will you give it a shot?
[13:31] Mafuyu
    Huh?
[13:44] Mafuyu
    I'll think about it later.
[13:47] Ritsuka
    What do you mean, "later"?
[13:49] Mafuyu
    Sorry. I'll talk to you later.
[13:54] Ritsuka
    Mafuyu! Hey!
[14:02] Ritsuka
    What? Why?!
[14:04] Ritsuka
    What?!
[14:06] Ueki
    We're in a different classroom next.
[14:11] Classmate A
    Hey, Hiiragi!
[14:13] Classmate A
    You're going home already?
[14:15] Classmate B
    Work again?
[14:16] Hiiragi
    Ayup.
[14:18] Hiiragi
    By the way, have you seen Shizu?
[14:20] Classmate B
    Shizusumi? He said he was
    gonna skip in the nurse's office.
[14:30] Hiiragi
    Shizu.
[14:33] Hiiragi
    Hey, let's go home.
[14:38] Hiiragi
    Hey.
[14:40] Shizusumi
    Shut up. You're so loud.
[14:45] Hiiragi
    This is boring.
[14:48] Hiiragi
    Let's head to the studio.
[14:51] Shizusumi
    What are we supposed to do
    in the studio every day?
[14:55] Hiiragi
    We'll make a new demo.
[14:58] (Flashback) Ritsuka
    Hiiragi! Did you...
[15:00] (Flashback) Ritsuka
    Did you ever feel conflicted?
[15:03] Hiiragi
    God, he must be really dumb.
[15:07] Hiiragi
    After Yuki died, I decided that
    I was gonna be in a band again.
[15:15] Hiiragi
    And this way I can keep Shizusumi
    tied to my life a little bit longer.
[15:24] Hiiragi
    Shizusumi always looks like he wants
    absolutely nothing to do with me...
[15:29] Hiiragi
    But in the end, he'll always follow me.
[15:34] Hiiragi
    Even though he looks like he's
    not listening to a word I say...
[15:38] Hiiragi
    He says exactly what
    I want to hear sometimes.
[15:44] Hiiragi
    When I asked him to form a band with me,
[15:46] Hiiragi
    despite any reservations
    he may have had, he agreed.
[15:50] Hiiragi
    When I couldn't get a
    hold of Mafuyu anymore...
[15:59] (Flashback) Shizusumi
    Will you go back to your place already?
[16:03] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    I don't wanna. There's no one
    home even if I go back.
[16:16] (Flashback) Shizusumi
    It's cold. Hurry up and get in.
[16:24] Hiiragi
    Shizusumi can be nice sometimes.
[16:31] Hiiragi
    Until recently, that was more than enough.
[16:35] Hiiragi
    Maybe, just maybe...
[16:40] Hiiragi
    Maybe, my ass! I'm pretty sure
    that I really like Shizusumi!
[16:45] Shizusumi
    Dude, it's hot.
[16:48] Hiiragi
    It's all because Mafuyu said I should
    hurry up and get together with Shizu!
[16:52] Hiiragi
    God, he's so antisocial,
    but I love him so much!
[16:56] Shizusumi
    Uenoyama said he made it to the station.
[16:58] Hiiragi
    I love you, I love you, I love you,
    I love you, I love you, I love you.
[17:02] Hiiragi
    First off, look at this handsome face!
[17:03] Shizusumi
    Are you listening?
    What the heck is that look for?
[17:06] Hiiragi
    And he's so built. He used
    to be scrawnier than me!
[17:10] Shizusumi
    Hiiragi.
[17:11] Hiiragi
    On top of everything, even his voice is hot!
[17:13] Hiiragi
    What am I gonna do?! I love you!
[17:15] Hiiragi
    Huh? What do you want?
[17:21] Hiiragi
    Uh... What?
[17:24] Ritsuka
    Mafuyu...
[17:29] Hiiragi
    Man, Mafuyu is hilarious!
[17:32] Ritsuka
    This isn't funny at all.
[17:35] Hiiragi
    That's the best thing I've heard all day!
[17:37] Ritsuka
    Shut up! Quit enjoying this!
[17:40] Hiiragi
    I mean... You worked up all that courage...
[17:44] Hiiragi
    and asked him to consider
    going pro with you...
[17:47] Hiiragi
    then got told, "Talk to you later!"
[17:49] Ritsuka
    And we're done here.
[17:50] Shizusumi
    Hold up.
[17:53] Ritsuka
    First off!
[17:54] Ritsuka
    Why does he suddenly back off
    whenever I say we should do something?!
[17:57] Hiiragi
    You're probably hella annoying about it.
[18:00] Ritsuka
    I'll kill you!
[18:01] Hiiragi
    But yeah. He always did take
    forever to make up his mind.
[18:06] Shizusumi
    Once he's made up his mind,
    he won't back down,
[18:08] Shizusumi
    but he'll go quiet until he decides
     so he doesn't make a mistake.
[18:13] Hiiragi
    And once he's done thinking, he'll answer,
    so it'll usually be out of the blue.
[18:19] Ritsuka
    I'm leaving.
[18:20] Hiiragi
    Okay, okay. Sorry!
[18:24] Ritsuka
    Anyway, why aren't we in the studio today?
[18:28] Hiiragi
    Well, we just wanted to
    discuss something today.
[18:30] Ritsuka
    Discuss something?
[18:32] Hiiragi
    I just sent you some audio.
[18:35] Ritsuka
    What? You want to do
    a new song or something?
[18:38] Shizusumi
    It's not a new song, but one
    that's been around for a while.
[18:42] Ritsuka
    I thought I got audio
    of all your songs already.
[18:44] Shizusumi
    No, we had one we didn't give to you yet.
[18:48] Hiiragi
    It's a song from when Yuki was our singer.
[18:52] Ritsuka
    Yuki?
[18:55] Hiiragi
    He's Mafuyu's... childhood friend who died.
[18:59] Hiiragi
    Have you heard about him before?
[19:01] Ritsuka
    Er, I mean... just barely...
[19:08] Hiiragi
    We originally started this band
    with Yuki, Shizu, and me.
[19:13] Hiiragi
    The three of us wrote songs together,
    and a lot of them were basically complete.
SIGN    Damn it!! I said not to be late today!!!!
SIGN    Got it.
SIGN    I'm at the station.
SIGN    Got it.
[19:18] Hiiragi
    That's one of those songs.
[19:20] Ritsuka
    Huh? Then what're all your other songs?
[19:23] Hiiragi
    What you've been playing up
    until now are all songs I wrote.
[19:27] Hiiragi
    We haven't played the songs from when
    Yuki was our vocalist ever since he passed.
[19:32] Ritsuka
    Er, wait. Why haven't you played them since?
[19:38] Hiiragi
    Because I didn't think I could fill
    Yuki's shoes and sing his songs.
[19:43] Hiiragi
    Not entirely because it hurts, but put
    simply, I'm not good enough to do it.
[19:48] Ritsuka
    I don't get what you mean.
    Was this dude amazing or something?
[19:52] Ritsuka
    Sorry, but I can't imagine this
    Yuki guy being better than you.
[19:57] Hiiragi
    You don't understand a damn thing.
[20:00] Hiiragi
    Yuki was stupidly charming.
[20:03] Hiiragi
    My songs are basically junk food,
    but Yuki's were different.
[20:10] Hiiragi
    This demo's still unfinished.
    Both the lyrics and the music.
[20:16] Hiiragi
    I think we'll probably lose
    our opportunity to play this
[20:19] Hiiragi
    once we get an official guitarist.
[20:21] Hiiragi
    I want to complete it before that happens.
[20:24] Ritsuka
    Er, wait.
[20:25] Ritsuka
    I seriously don't want to do this.
[20:28] Hiiragi
    Well, I guess I can't blame you.
[20:30] Hiiragi
    It's really hard to finish someone
    else's song from the middle.
[20:33] Hiiragi
    And you've probably never
    written lyrics before.
[20:37] Hiiragi
    It's fine if you can't do it.
[20:40] Ritsuka
    Shut up! I can do that much, dumbass!
[20:43] Hiiragi
    Anyway, just give that demo a listen.
[20:57] Ritsuka
    I only decided to help them out because
    I acknowledged Hiiragi's talent.
[21:02] Ritsuka
    I really don't like this.
[21:08] Ritsuka
    Honestly, I can't get into it.
[21:11] Ritsuka
    I mean, it's Mafuyu's ex-boyfriend.
[21:15] Ritsuka
    Tch. Oh, fine!
[21:40] Hiiragi
    You know, with Yuki...
[21:42] Hiiragi
    Even on that night... He probably
    just thought he'd give it a shot,
[21:47] Hiiragi
    and just tapped over that white line
    normal people wouldn't be able to cross.
[21:54] Hiiragi
    I still don't fully understand Yuki.
SIGN    Shizu-chan
SIGN    Can you meet me right now?
[22:02] Hiiragi
    I wonder if Uenoyama'll agree to it.
[22:07] Hiiragi
    Hey, Shizu, are you listening?
[22:11] Shizusumi
    Sorry, something came up.
[22:13] Hiiragi
    Huh?
[22:14] Shizusumi
    I'm gonna go home this way.
[22:15] Hiiragi
    Huh?!
[22:23] Shizusumi
    See you tomorrow.
[22:26] Hiiragi
    Hey, wait! Who are you meeting up with?!
[22:28] Hiiragi
    Damn it! You almost tricked me!
[22:30] Shizusumi
    Bye.
[22:31] Hiiragi
    Who are you meeting with at this hour?!
[22:33] Hiiragi
    Hey!
[22:35] Hiiragi
    Damn it, he's fast!
[22:45] Shizusumi
    Mafuyu.
[22:46] Shizusumi
    Hey.
[22:49] Mafuyu
    Shizu-chan.
[22:52] Shizusumi
    Is this about your debut?
[22:54] Mafuyu
    You heard?
[22:55] Shizusumi
    From Uenoyama, yeah.
[23:00] Shizusumi
    So you can't make up your mind?
[23:02] Mafuyu
    It's not... that I can't make up my mind.
[23:05] Mafuyu
    I just don't know.
[23:13] Mafuyu
    I never even thought about it.
[23:16] Mafuyu
    When did you start thinking about
    that kind of stuff, Shizu-chan?
[23:19] Shizusumi
    When Hiiragi told me.
[23:21] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    I'm gonna go pro!
[23:22] Hiiragi
    He said he was going pro,
    so I was like, "Oh, okay."
[23:27] Hiiragi
    Honestly, what do you
    even have to think about?
[23:35] Mafuyu
    I don't know.
[23:37] Shizusumi
    I'm okay with going along with
    anything Hiiragi says he wants to do.
[23:42] Mafuyu
    Because you like Hiiragi?
[23:49] Shizusumi
    You're scared, aren't you?
[23:55] Shizusumi
    I'm not like you or Yuki.
[24:04] Shizusumi
    I'm sure you wouldn't understand
[24:05] Shizusumi
    since the two of you basically
    fell into each other's laps, but...
[24:09] Shizusumi
    I don't have any options.
[24:11] Shizusumi
    I don't have time to be unsure
    when it comes to what I want.
[24:15] Shizusumi
    I don't mind giving up my life for it.
[24:22] Shizusumi
    Must be nice being you.
[24:28] Mafuyu
    If you like Hiiragi that much,
    why don't you do anything about it?
[24:37] Shizusumi
    You know...
[24:39] Shizusumi
    He probably liked Yuki just a little bit.
[24:42] Mafuyu
    Huh?
[24:44] Shizusumi
    I don't know what kind of "like" it was...
[24:46] Mafuyu
    Wha...
[24:48] Shizusumi
    But he definitely idolized him.
[24:52] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    There's something I want
    to try doing with you.
[24:56] Shizusumi
    And he still does.
[25:00] Shizusumi
    It's the same as when
     we started playing music.
[25:03] Shizusumi
    Why do you think Hiiragi's
    still keeping up with a band?
[25:08] Shizusumi
    It's always been like that.
[25:10] Shizusumi
    You may have been too close to notice,
[25:14] Shizusumi
    but the four of us always
    had Yuki at our center.
[25:19] Mafuyu
    You think... so?
[25:20] Shizusumi
    Yeah. Honestly, you all adore
    Yuki so much it pisses me off.
[25:26] Shizusumi
    That's why I don't care if
    I'm in it for the long haul.
[25:31] Shizusumi
    We went off-topic.
[25:33] Shizusumi
    Anyway, the only thing I can tell you is...
[25:37] Shizusumi
    When it comes to your band—
    or at least, Uenoyama...
[25:42] Shizusumi
    If you don't have the resolve or
    attachment to live your life with him...
[25:46] Shizusumi
    I say this for your own good:
[25:49] Shizusumi
    just give up.
[25:56] Shizusumi
    Hiiragi ended up blooming in Yuki's light.
[26:00] Shizusumi
    He's talented, honest, fragile...
[26:04] Shizusumi
    and dazzling.
[26:09] Shizusumi
    I want to taint him.
[26:12] Shizusumi
    I was a foster kid, so the only
    world I knew was filthy until then.
[26:17] Shizusumi
    Compared to my cynicism
    and lack of emotions,
[26:20] Shizusumi
    Hiiragi shines so brilliantly.
[26:30] Shizusumi
    I carefully... carefully
    cherished him for so long.
[26:38] Shizusumi
    Like wrapping my hands around a
    shining rock I found in the sandbox.
[26:45] Shizusumi
    Damn it.
[26:47] Shizusumi
    I'm seriously...
[26:49] Shizusumi
    such a piece of shit.
[26:57] Haruki
    What... What even is this place?
[26:59] Haruki
    This is where you live, Akihiko?!
    Is that even possible?!
[27:03] Akihiko
    It's even noisier during the day
    because there's a print shop.
[27:07] Haruki
    Say what, now?!
[27:10] Haruki
    I'm gonna put some beer in.
[27:12] Haruki
    A-Are all of these thrown out
    convenience store bentos?
[27:16] Haruki
    You've even got some frozen...
[27:18] Akihiko
    Doing my part to stop food waste.
[27:20] Haruki
    You didn't even freeze them properly.
    Doesn't the rice get hard?
[27:24] Akihiko
    Ah... the rice that gets
     hard after freezing it...
[27:30] Akihiko
    usually tastes fine when
    you put it in ochazuke.
[27:34] Haruki
    You're a genius.
[27:37] Haruki
    This place is definitely cursed,
[27:39] Haruki
    but if the rent's cheap and you can
    play your drums, it can't be that bad.
[27:42] Akihiko
    Right? The ghost of an old guy pops up, though.
[27:46] Haruki
    Huh?!
[27:46] Akihiko
    But this place is pretty freakin' awesome.
[27:48] Haruki
    Have you seen him?
    Have you actually seen him?!
[27:52] Akihiko
    They shoot fireworks
    around here in the summer.
[27:55] Haruki
    Huh?
[27:56] Akihiko
    There's a river just past the station,
[27:58] Akihiko
    and they said we'd probably be
    able to see them from up here.
[28:01] Haruki
    Huh...
[28:32] Haruki
    Aki.
[28:34] Haruki
    Uh, w-wait just a sec.
[28:36] Akihiko
    Huh?
[28:36] Haruki
    Before that, there's something
    I want to discuss with you.
[28:39] Akihiko
    Later.
[28:40] Haruki
    Hey! I... Oh, jeez!
[28:46] Ritsuka
    It's not what I imagined at all.
[28:49] Ritsuka
    It's not like Hiiragi's music,
    or Mafuyu's, either.
[28:54] Ritsuka
    Are we gonna play this?
[29:00] Ritsuka
    Damn it.
[29:04] Ritsuka
    I really don't wanna. But...
[29:09] Ritsuka
    God damn it.
[29:14] Yayoi
    Ritsuka, food's ready—
[29:18] Yayoi
    Oh, man. He's at it again.

[29:35] Hiiragi
    Huh?!
[29:36] Ritsuka
    I made a demo. Listen to it.
[29:38] Hiiragi
    What?!
[29:40] Hiiragi
    Dude, that was way too fast!
[29:42] Ritsuka
    Just hurry up and listen, damn it.
[29:44] Hiiragi
    You do realize you're at
    a different school, right?
[29:47] Hiiragi
    Okay, okay, I got it. Jeez.
[29:51] Hiiragi
    For crying out loud.
    Couldn't you wait until the studio...
[30:01] (Flashback) Yuki
    Hiiragi.
[30:05] Ritsuka
    Hurry up and say something.
[30:08] Hiiragi
    Why...
[30:11] Hiiragi
    This song actually... isn't your sound.
[30:16] Ritsuka
    That's how I wrote it.
[30:23] Yayoi
    Huh... So it's his ex's song?
[30:27] Yayoi
    That's why you're in such a bad mood.
[30:29] Ritsuka
    Yeah... but also, no.
[30:32] Yayoi
    Eh? Then what's with that expression?
[30:35] Ritsuka
    Look, it's someone else's song.
[30:39] Ritsuka
    It's kind of like...
[30:41] Ritsuka
    For example, like you were gonna finish
    someone else's incomplete painting.
[30:46] Yayoi
    Okay...
[30:47] Ritsuka
    You can pretty much paint
    over it however you want.
[30:51] Ritsuka
    But there's no point if you just
    completely paint over the old painting.
[30:54] Yayoi
    Ah, I see.
[30:57] Yayoi
    So that's why it's bugging you.
[31:00] Yayoi
    That sounds a little like
    restoring paintings.
[31:05] Ritsuka
    What's that?
[31:06] Yayoi
    It's where you fix paintings that are old,
    damaged, or have paint peeling off.
[31:11] Yayoi
    Not only do you need the proper technique,
    you need to know the artist
[31:15] Yayoi
    and what they were trying to express.
[31:19] Yayoi
    You have to understand this Yuki
    person better than anyone else.
[31:23] Yayoi
    That's basically what you're
    trying to do now, right?
[31:28] Yayoi
    But man, you're too much
    of a softy, you know that?
[31:36] Ritsuka
    Okay, then what if...
[31:38] Ritsuka
    you were asked to take care of a
    painting by Yatake-san's ex-girlfriend?
[31:41] Yayoi
    I'd rip it to shreds.
[31:47] Yayoi
    I mean, that's basically like a
    love letter written by his ex, isn't it?
[31:55] Yayoi
    It'd be hellish.
[32:11] Ritsuka
    Yuki Yoshida.
[32:13] Ritsuka
    The impression I get from the demo
    is that he's self-righteous,
[32:16] Ritsuka
    pleasure-seeking, and cool-headed.
[32:18] Ritsuka
    And yet, there's a hint of loneliness.
[32:21] Ritsuka
    To be honest, I'd imagined someone
    delicate... Someone more like Mafuyu.
[32:28] Ritsuka
    Actually, if I'm being really honest,
    I was trying not to think about him at all.
[32:32] (Flashback) Mafuyu
    You see, I...
[32:34] (Flashback) Mafuyu
    had someone I really, truly loved.
[32:38] Mafuyu
    Uenoyama-kun!
[32:42] Ritsuka
    Uh... Mafuyu?
[32:44] Mafuyu
    I kept calling for you.
[32:46] Ritsuka
    Er, right.
[32:48] Ritsuka
    He scared me...
[32:50] Mafuyu
    I sent you a message asking when
    you wanted to have the band meeting,
[32:52] Mafuyu
    but you never responded.
[32:54] Ritsuka
    Oh, so you came to ask me directly.
[32:58] Ritsuka
    He's pouting...
[32:59] Ritsuka
    It's sorta adorable.
[33:02] Ritsuka
    I thought he was actually avoiding me.
[33:04] Mafuyu
    Kaji-san asked if the weekend would work.
[33:07] Ritsuka
    Oh, sorry. I'm gonna have to pass.
[33:10] Ritsuka
    I already promised Hiiragi
    I'd go into the studio with him.
[33:15] Mafuyu
    Have the three of you been
    together all the time lately?
[33:18] Ritsuka
    All the time...
[33:19] Ritsuka
    Actually, aside from when
    I'm working, yeah, maybe.
[33:23] Ritsuka
    Sorry. I'll contact Kaji-san later.
[33:47] Ritsuka
    Hiiragi's already got it.
[33:51] Ritsuka
    I only gave him the demo a day
    or two ago, but he's already got it.
[33:57] Ritsuka
    To be honest, this band's freakin' awesome.
[34:00] Ritsuka
    It's just like when I think
    a band is gonna make it big,
[34:04] Ritsuka
    and in a few months, they're
    doing a song for a commercial.
[34:10] Ritsuka
    First off, Hiiragi doesn't have any flaws.
[34:13] Ritsuka
    And then there's Shizusumi...
    How the hell is he so good at the drums?
[34:19] Ritsuka
    Maybe it's because he played sports,
    but he's great at using his wrists.
[34:22] Ritsuka
    He's got great rhythm, and
    most of all, he's so open-minded.
[34:26] Ritsuka
    Damn... I want to try to finish this song.
[34:32] Hiiragi
    Hey.
[34:33] Hiiragi
    We're gonna finish this song by the
    time of our record release show.
[34:41] Ritsuka
    He's got some brass balls on him, for sure.
[34:47] Hiiragi
    Damn it, I'm starving.
    Let's get something to eat.
[34:51] Shizusumi
    Agreed.
[34:52] Hiiragi
    Oh, we're gonna be shooting a music video,
    so we'll be rehearsing that next time.
[34:56] Ritsuka
    A music video? Didn't you shoot one before?
[34:59] Hiiragi
    They shot that for us as a
    supplementary prize for CAC.
[35:02] Hiiragi
    This one's gonna be for our debut song.
[35:05] Hiiragi
    You're gonna be in it, too, y'know.
[35:07] Ritsuka
    What?! But I'm just a fill-in!
[35:10] Hiiragi
    It's fine. You probably won't
    be in it much, anyway.
[35:14] Ritsuka
    What do you mean, it's fine?!
[35:17] Hiiragi
    Mafuyu!
[35:21] Hiiragi
    Hey! What's up? Heading home from work?
[35:24] Mafuyu
    Yeah.
[35:25] Mafuyu
    You guys were in the studio again today?
[35:27] Hiiragi
    Yup!
[35:28] Hiiragi
    We've got a show coming up.
    And we're shooting a music video soon.
[35:32] Ritsuka
    We're about to grab some food.
    You should come with us.
[35:35] Hiiragi
    Come with us!
[35:38] Mafuyu
    I'm not going.
[35:41] Hiiragi
    Huh? What? C'mon...
[35:44] Mafuyu
    No.
[35:45] Hiiragi
    Huh?
[35:48] Mafuyu
    See you later.
[35:51] Shizusumi
    Okay, be careful.
[35:55] Shizusumi
    Let's go get ramen.
[36:03] Mafuyu
    I can't speak very well.
[36:06] Mafuyu
    The band, Uenoyama-kun...
[36:10] Mafuyu
    A bunch of things are
    suddenly falling on me...
[36:14] Mafuyu
    And I can't hear the music properly.
[36:18] Mafuyu
    It's just like before...
[36:21] Mafuyu
    I feel like I'm being
    left behind by everyone.
[36:33] Mafuyu
    I hate it. I'm scared.
[36:45] Akihiko
    Okay, okay, okay.
[36:46] Akihiko
    I'll be right there! Jeez.
[36:50] Akihiko
    Huh?
[36:52] Akihiko
    Eh? Uh... What?
[36:59] Akihiko
    Dude, you seriously always
    show up outta nowhere.
[37:05] Akihiko
    How'd you find out where I live?
[37:07] Mafuyu
    Haruki-san told me.
[37:10] Mafuyu
    I was already warned, but it really is bad.
[37:13] Akihiko
    Yeah, it's noisy.
[37:15] Mafuyu
    No, I mean other things, too.
[37:18] Akihiko
    Ah...
[37:20] Akihiko
    I guess it's been a while, huh?
[37:22] Akihiko
    Sorry I haven't been to the studio in a while.
[37:25] Akihiko
    College exams and preparing for
    my competition's been pretty rough.
[37:31] Akihiko
    Oh, that reminds me!
[37:32] Akihiko
    The thing about our possible debut!
    Isn't that crazy?
[37:35] Akihiko
    That's how much influence CAC has?
[37:37] Akihiko
    Also, we're friggin' hot.
[37:41] Mafuyu
    You want to debut, Kaji-san?
[37:44] Akihiko
    Huh?
[37:45] Akihiko
    Wait, what?
[37:47] Mafuyu
    Do you want to?
[37:49] Akihiko
    Hm? U-Uh... Okay, one sec. Uh...
[37:54] Akihiko
    We're starting from there?
[37:58] Akihiko
    Okay... listen.
[38:01] Akihiko
    It's not about "want." I'm gonna do it.
[38:04] Akihiko
    I don't care how many years it takes,
    or what it looks like.
[38:07] Akihiko
    I'm gonna do it.
[38:09] Akihiko
    I can be in a band. I can be a violinist.
[38:12] Akihiko
    I really want to make a living with music.
[38:15] Akihiko
    I feel like I can do anything if I'm
    with you, Uenoyama, and Haruki.
[38:19] Akihiko
    So I'm gonna take every
    opportunity that comes my way.
[38:23] Akihiko
    Also, I haven't been looking for a job
    since I've been playing violin so much.
[38:30] Akihiko
    How do you feel about it?
[38:34] Akihiko
    Don't worry. I'll keep it a secret
    from the other guys. Just tell me.
[38:39] Mafuyu
    Uh... Um...
[38:44] Mafuyu
    Uh...
[38:45] Akihiko
    Uh-huh.
[38:47] Mafuyu
    Um...
[38:49] Mafuyu
    I'm scared... I think.
[38:53] Mafuyu
    I don't know. I can't imagine it.
[38:57] Mafuyu
    I was just playing music because it was fun.
[39:00] Mafuyu
    But I saw Uenoyama-kun with guys
    from another band today,
[39:06] Mafuyu
    and I remembered how everything
    fell apart because of music.
[39:12] Mafuyu
    If I go pro, I won't be able to
    run away from music anymore,
[39:15] Mafuyu
    and I may lose something again.
[39:20] Mafuyu
    And even if that happens...
    No matter what happens,
[39:23] Mafuyu
    I keep wondering if I'm still going
    to have to give my all to music.
[39:29] Akihiko
    Yeah, I get that.
[39:33] Mafuyu
    Aren't Hiiragi or Uenoyama-kun scared at all?
[39:38] Akihiko
    Yeah, I don't know about that.
[39:40] Akihiko
    Those guys are definitely light-types.
[39:43] Akihiko
    Rather than worry about all the
    negative stuff that may come,
[39:46] Akihiko
    they probably only pay attention to all
    the sparkly stuff that's in the light.
[39:50] Imaginary Hiiragi
    This is my shot!
[39:52] Akihiko
    They have a record release show
    coming up, don't they?
[39:55] Akihiko
    Why don't you go check that out?
[39:58] Akihiko
    I get that you might not want to see
    Ue supporting some other guy, but...
[40:04] Mafuyu
    I don't wanna go.
[40:06] Akihiko
    Yeah, I definitely get that.
[40:11] Mafuyu
    Thanks for having me over.
[40:12] Akihiko
    Sure. Be careful getting home.
[40:43] Ritsuka
    No, really.
[40:44] Ritsuka
    Mafuyu was acting all weird, right?!
[40:46] Hiiragi
    You're saying that now?!
[40:47] Shizusumi
    It finally hit you?
[40:48] Hiiragi
    He's probably pissed that a guy from
    his band got poached by another one.
[40:52] Ritsuka
    People actually feel that way?
[40:54] Hiiragi
    Seriously, what is Mafuyu to you?
[40:57] Hiiragi
    Or he might be thinking
    his guy's been stolen again.
[41:01] Ritsuka
    Huh? But no one's stolen me.
[41:04] Hiiragi
    That's not what I mean!
[41:07] Hiiragi
    Listen to me, damn it!
[41:09] Hiiragi
    With everything that happened with Yuki,
[41:11] Hiiragi
    I can't have him hating me again over music!
[41:14] Ritsuka
    What are you talking about?
[41:16] Hiiragi
    He hasn't told you?!
[41:18] Ritsuka
    Why else would I ask?!
[41:20] Hiiragi
    I'm saying that Yuki...
[41:22] Hiiragi
    Back then, when Yuki...
[41:26] Hiiragi
    Right before it happened,
    those two had a huge fight.
[41:29] Hiiragi
    I mean, I don't know the details, either...
[41:34] Hiiragi
    But I'm pretty sure the reason was music.
[41:40] Hiiragi
    Back then, Yuki was completely
    obsessed with music.
[41:43] Hiiragi
    But Mafuyu never said he wanted to play, too.
[41:48] Hiiragi
    Mafuyu might've thought that he
    ended up alone because of music.
[41:54] Hiiragi
    So he probably hated music...
[41:57] Hiiragi
    and I never thought he'd
    come over to this side.
[42:01] Hiiragi
    That's why I was pretty shocked
     when he was suddenly in a band...
[42:07] Ritsuka
    O-Oh, shit...
[42:08] Hiiragi
    Huh?
[42:09] Hiiragi
    Wait, what?!
[42:11] Ritsuka
    My head's been so full with that song lately,
[42:14] Ritsuka
    I think I might've been doing the same thing...
[42:20] Ritsuka
    Th-This is... really bad...
[42:23] Shizusumi
    Could I get more noodles, please?
[42:25] Employee
    You got it!
[42:26] Ritsuka
    I totally assumed Mafuyu
    would come to our show...
[42:31] Ritsuka
    I need to actually talk to him.
[42:34] Shizusumi
    You know, it sure took you guys long enough.
[42:41] Hiiragi
    O-Oh, shit!
[42:44] Hiiragi
    M-Mafu... Mafuyu's gonna hate me...
[42:48] Hiiragi
    I just... Nothing ever goes well for me!
[42:52] Shizusumi
    That so?
[42:53] Hiiragi
    Yes!
[42:55] Hiiragi
    We started this for Mafuyu and
    ended leaving him all alone again!
[42:59] Shizusumi
    Yeah, pretty much.
[43:00] Hiiragi
    I can't!
[43:04] Hiiragi
    It's not like I was trying to keep secrets!
[43:07] Hiiragi
    But still...
[43:11] Hiiragi
    Shizu?
[43:13] Hiiragi
    Are you mad?
[43:17] Shizusumi
    Honestly... I really do understand
    Mafuyu's feeling left out.
[43:23] Hiiragi
    Huh?
[43:30] Shizusumi
    The one who's truly being left out here...
[43:38] Shizusumi
    is me.
[43:39] Hiiragi
    Huh?
[43:43] Shizusumi
    I mean...
[43:46] Shizusumi
    You liked Yuki, too, didn't you?
[43:49] Hiiragi
    Wha—
[43:50] Hiiragi
    Wait, what?
[43:51] Hiiragi
    What exactly are we talking about right now?
[43:54] Shizusumi
    You always looked like you were having fun
    after Yuki invited you to be in the band.
[44:00] Hiiragi
    B-But you were also...
    You were having fun, too...
[44:04] Shizusumi
    Me?
[44:05] Hiiragi
    What?!
[44:06] Hiiragi
    What? Why is Shizu mad? What?
[44:10] Hiiragi
    Me? Like Yuki?
[44:12] Hiiragi
    Wait... Wait, wait, wait, that's not right!
[44:15] Hiiragi
    You! I like you*! You've got
    the wrong idea, dumbass!
[44:17] Hiiragi
    It's you! You! I like you
!
[44:20] Hiiragi
    I-I...
[44:22] Shizusumi
    Not to mention...
[44:23] Shizusumi
    Why do you want to play Yuki's song now?
[44:27] Shizusumi
    For Mafuyu? Is that really the case?
[44:30] Shizusumi
    It's because you're still sad about it.
[44:34] Hiiragi
    No, really. What the hell?
    This all came outta nowhere.
[44:37] Hiiragi
    You're acting like you have*
    any idea how I feel!
[44:41] Hiiragi
    First of all, I—
[44:43] Hiiragi
    I...
[44:44] Hiiragi
    I like you, damn it!
[44:50] Shizusumi
    I see.
[44:51] Hiiragi
    Huh?!
[44:54] Shizusumi
    Then what do you want to do?
[44:56] Hiiragi
    Wait... what?
[44:58] Hiiragi
    What do I want to do? With Shizu? Huh?
[45:02] Hiiragi
    Did you hear what I just said?
[45:03] Hiiragi
    I like you! So say something back!
[45:07] Shizusumi
    See? It's not like you actually
    want to do something with me.
[45:13] Hiiragi
    Huh? I never said that.
[45:15] Hiiragi
    You know, I want to take it step by step...
[45:18] Hiiragi
    L-Like holding hands at first...
[45:20] Hiiragi
    Huh?
[45:37] Hiiragi
    I-It's touching—
[45:40] Shizusumi
    When you say you like someone,
    it usually involves getting this put in.
[45:45] Shizusumi
    You wouldn't be able to do
    that stuff with me, would you?
[45:49] Shizusumi
    If you're going to actually
    respect our boundaries, so will I.
[45:57] Shizusumi
    So, what do you want to do?
[46:00] Shizusumi
    You can decide.
[46:16] Hiiragi
    Wha...
[46:18] Hiiragi
    What a piece of shit!
[46:26] Hiiragi's Mom
    Hiiragi? Are you home?
[46:30] Hiiragi
    What's his problem? Why's he mad?
[46:33] Hiiragi
    Also, was Shizusumi always like that?
[46:37] Hiiragi's mom
    Hiiragi?
[46:38] Hiiragi
    Actually...
[46:40] Hiiragi
    When I think about it rationally,
    Shizusumi might be right.
[46:46] Hiiragi
    Saying that I want to finish the song,
    or have Mafuyu listen to it...
[46:51] Hiiragi
    They're all just excuses.
[46:53] Hiiragi
    Maybe I really have just been
    sad because Yuki's gone...
[46:59] Hiiragi
    And this whole time...
[47:02] Hiiragi
    I might've just been relying on Shizusumi
    and wanting attention from him.
[47:10] Hiiragi
    I idolized Yuki.
[47:13] Hiiragi
    He was someone special to me, but it's
    not like I wanted to end up with him.
[47:19] Hiiragi
    I mean...
[47:21] Hiiragi
    Yuki took Mafuyu by the hand, and
    they completed their own little world.
[47:28] Hiiragi
    And from the looks of it, their world
    had nothing to do with me.
[47:33] Hiiragi
    They were...
[47:34] Hiiragi
    Yuki was a sanctuary for me.
[47:39] Hiiragi
    Just basking in Yuki's special light...
[47:41] Hiiragi
    Just listening to Yuki's special music...
[47:44] Hiiragi
    All I needed was to be able
    to watch from the audience.
[47:51] Hiiragi
    Right next to Shizusumi.
[48:02] Hiiragi
    Of course Shizu would
    think that I liked Yuki.
SIGN    Though the degree varies from
    person to person, nicotine causes
    dependence on smoking.
[48:24] Haruki
    Hey, don't hit my teeth with your piercing.
[48:27] Akihiko
    What? I thought you liked—
[48:31] Akihiko
    Huh?!
[48:33] Haruki
    Hey.
[48:34] Haruki
    Aki, come on. Hurry up and answer the door.
[48:38] Akihiko
    Let's ignore it.
[48:39] Haruki
    No, really! Get the door!
[48:40] Haruki
    Your lights are on! It's obvious you're home!
[48:43] Akihiko
    Nah, whoever it is will eventually leave.
[48:50] Akihiko
    God damn it! Hey, Mafuyu!
[48:53] Akihiko
    I keep telling you to stop
    showing up unannoun—
[48:57] Akihiko
    Wait... Huh? It's the other one?
[49:01] Haruki
    Akihiko!
[49:05] Ritsuka
    U-Um...
[49:06] Haruki
    Who was it?
[49:09] Ritsuka
    Could you fix your clothes?
[49:13] Ritsuka
    Um...
[49:15] Ritsuka
    Sorry for showing up at a bad time...
[49:17] Haruki and Akihiko
    No, no, it's fine.
[49:20] Haruki
    So... It's been a while since the three
    of us have gotten together, huh?
[49:23] Ritsuka
    Yes.
[49:25] Haruki
    What brings you here so late?
[49:27] Ritsuka
    Oh, right. The reason I'm here.
[49:30] Ritsuka
    It was on my way home.
[49:33] Ritsuka
    Here.
[49:36] Ritsuka
    I came to give you these tickets.
[49:38] Ritsuka
    Hiiragi's band's first major show.
[49:41] Akihiko
    Yikes.
[49:42] Akihiko
    Aw, man. You get to do all
    the cool things. No fair.
[49:46] Ritsuka
    Wha— I mean...
[49:48] Ritsuka
    We can just debut, too, then!
[49:50] Akihiko
    Yeah, I'd love to. Wouldn't you?
[49:54] Ritsuka
    I just said I would!
[49:55] Akihiko
    Then quit wasting time and convince
    Mafuyu so you don't have to be so uptight.
[50:02] Akihiko
    But you're holding back on him.
[50:05] Akihiko
    Hurry up and convince
    our vocalist. Am I right?
[50:09] Haruki
    Hm...
[50:12] Haruki
    So, about our debut...
[50:14] Haruki
    The deal's still on, so let's
    set a few things straight.
[50:17] Haruki
    Did you know that we're
    all graduating this year?
[50:21] Ritsuka
    Huh?
[50:22] Haruki
    Me from graduate school,
    Akihiko as an undergrad,
[50:25] Haruki
    and you two are graduating high school.
[50:27] Haruki
    So, yeah. No matter what we do,
    there's a lot changing for us up ahead.
[50:32] Akihiko
    You're pretty awesome, you know that?
[50:35] Akihiko
    After all's said and done,
    you're always closest to the stage.
[50:38] Ritsuka
    I...
[50:40] Akihiko
    Since you're gonna be on stage,
    why not pull Mafuyu up from there?
[50:45] Akihiko
    As usual, you're just gonna
    have to reel him in with music.
[50:52] Ritsuka
    I was trying to be nice,
[50:55] Ritsuka
    and you just keep blathering on...
[50:59] Ritsuka
    I'm freaking out here because
    music's clearly not working!
[51:02] Ritsuka
    Not to mention I'm dealing with
    the guy who's made of mysteries!
[51:06] Ritsuka
    Damn it! Reel him in with music?!
[51:08] Ritsuka
    Just wait until the day of the show!
[51:10] Ritsuka
    I'm gonna beat the shit
    outta you two with my music!
[51:14] Ritsuka
    You're not supposed to laugh!
[51:18] Haruki
    You know, I totally get Mafuyu's
    anxiety and Uecchi's hesitation.
[51:24] Akihiko
    Where'd that come from?
[51:26] Haruki
    Just think about it. Isn't this a bit
    much for high school kids?
[51:32] Haruki
    Along with the band, their current
    relationship's being added to the pile.
[51:42] Haruki
    It's pretty insane, having to think about
    what you're gonna do if you break up.
[51:48] Haruki
    Wait!
[51:49] Haruki
    Wait a sec, sorry. This is
    probably hitting close to home...
[51:53] Akihiko
    Huh? Not really.
[51:55] Akihiko
    Honestly, I'm pretty confident,
    even with stuff like that.
[51:59] Akihiko
    But I guess this might be pretty
    heavy for seventeen-year-olds.
[52:03] Akihiko
    I mean...
[52:04] Akihiko
    It's basically like committing double
    suicide with your current partner, right?
[52:10] Hiiragi
    Yeah. I'm not going today.
[52:13] Hiiragi
    I'll be okay. See you later.
[52:20] Hiiragi
    I couldn't sleep at all. I cried so hard
    that my face feels all dry.
[52:35] Hiiragi
    I feel sick.
[52:43] Hiiragi
    I was exhausted from crying
    and kept having short dreams.
[52:48] Hiiragi
    They were all about the past and Shizusumi.
[52:53] (Flashback) Shizusumi
    What do you want to do?
SIGN    Uenoyama, Shizu
SIGN    About the demo I sent yesterday,
    I'm gonna revise it a bit.
SIGN    Got it.
SIGN    Sending the revised demo
[53:03] Ritsuka
    "After hearing you guys in
    the studio the other day,
[53:06] Ritsuka
    I wanted to change up the song a bit.
[53:08] Ritsuka
    Give it a listen."
[53:12] Hiiragi
    I'm exhausted.
[53:14] Hiiragi
    Damn it. What am I supposed to do?
[53:20] (Flashback) Young Hiiragi
    This is so freaky! Come up here, Shizu!
[53:25] (Flashback) Young Shizusumi
    Is there actually anything fun about that?
[53:31] Hiiragi
    Oh, yeah. That guardrail...
[53:38] Hiiragi
    When Shizu and I were little, we walked
    on top of it and got yelled at big-time.
[53:44] Hiiragi
    Another dream about Shizu?
[53:48] Hiiragi
    That guardrail...
[53:50] Hiiragi
    I tried walking on top of it twice.
[53:56] Hiiragi
    That winter when I entered high school...
[54:01] Hiiragi
    I just felt like doing something
    bad, like when I was a kid.
[54:07] Hiiragi
    But once I was up there, the flaming
    sunset was just so terrifying
[54:13] Hiiragi
    that I couldn't even take a single step.
[54:17] (Flashback) Shizusumi
    Hiiragi.
[54:38] Hiiragi
    He's right. He did change it just a little.
[54:46] Hiiragi
    Huh?
[54:49] Hiiragi
    Wait...
[54:53] Hiiragi
    Wait, I just figured something out.
[54:56] Hiiragi
    I think I just figured something out.
[54:59] Hiiragi
    I think I figured out the
    continuation of this song
[55:03] Hiiragi
    that Yuki wanted to write.
[55:05] Hiiragi
    The way Uenoyama and Yuki
    would look at Mafuyu...
[55:10] Hiiragi
    Just like me... they just...
[55:13] Hiiragi
    liked Mafuyu, plain and simple...
[55:38] Hiiragi
    Why didn't I realize it sooner?
[55:44] Hiiragi
    I liked Shizusumi in that same special way.
[56:23] Shizusumi
    Hey.
[56:25] Hiiragi
    Hey.
[56:27] Shizusumi
    Do you really understand
    what your actions imply?
[56:32] Hiiragi
    Isn't it obvious?
[56:34] Hiiragi
    What?! You've never gotten the gold one?
[56:40] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    Oh, fine...
[56:43] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    I'll trade you for my gold one.
[56:46] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    Here.
[56:50] Hiiragi
    That day in class when
    I gave him the gold paper
[56:52] Hiiragi
    that only one kid could get...
[56:53] Hiiragi
    I think I saw Shizu smile for the first time.
[56:58] Hiiragi
    I'm not sure why Shizu, who
    rarely smiled, actually smiled.
[57:02] Hiiragi
    I could also be correcting my memories.
[57:05] Hiiragi
    But after that...
[57:08] Hiiragi
    Before Shizu would just come with us,
[57:11] Hiiragi
    I ended up taking his hand
    and leading him around.
[57:14] Hiiragi
    And even after that...
[57:16] Hiiragi
    I wanted his eyes to see only me.
[57:20] Hiiragi
    I was so happy that Shizu got closer to me
    despite all the holes in his life.
[57:24] Hiiragi
    From the start, I was always the one who...
[57:27] Hiiragi
    I like you, Shizu!
[57:34] Shizusumi
    What?
[57:45] Shizusumi
    Hey.
[57:46] Hiiragi
    From the very beginning,
[57:48] Hiiragi
    when you made me a god over that
    single sheet of gold origami paper...
[57:55] Hiiragi
    This superiority complex
    from feeling needed...
[57:58] Hiiragi
    I want to fill those holes.
[58:01] Hiiragi
    I love him so much.
[58:04] Hiiragi
    I want to belong to him.
[58:08] Hiiragi
    Tell me you want me.
[58:10] Hiiragi
    I'll give myself to you.
[58:14] Shizusumi
    Do you really get what you're doing?
[58:15] Hiiragi
    You're the one who doesn't get it!
[58:17] Hiiragi
    Stop holding back on what
    you want by acting cool!
[58:21] Hiiragi
    Stop saying things to push me away from you!
[58:25] Shizusumi
    No. You definitely don't get it.
[58:27] Shizusumi
    Do you really understand what it means
    to tell someone walking through the desert,
[58:31] Shizusumi
    "Sure, you can lick up a bit of my water"?
[58:39] Hiiragi
    Well...
[58:41] Hiiragi
    You can have a lick.
[58:43] Hiiragi
    You can have all of me.
[58:49] Shizusumi
    Do you really understand
    what I'm going to do to you?
[58:52] Shizusumi
    You're going to be crying and whimpering.
[58:54] Hiiragi
    I won't cry!
[58:56] Hiiragi
    Huh?
[58:57] Hiiragi
    Wait, down there—
[59:00] Shizusumi
    Yeah, my hand is going there.
[59:02] Hiiragi
    No way...
[59:03] Shizusumi
    You're gonna be fine, right?
[59:05] Hiiragi
    Shut up! I know what's going to happen!
[59:12] Shizusumi
    Do you want to stop?
[59:13] Hiiragi
    Shut up! No!
[59:15] Hiiragi
    Stop asking me over and over, stupid!
[59:19] Hiiragi
    Huh? Why...
[59:22] Hiiragi
    Why are you smiling like that?
[59:25] Hiiragi
    Wait, what?!
[59:26] Hiiragi
    No, no, no! I'm scared! Wait!
[59:31] Hiiragi
    No way! It's going in—
[59:33] Hiiragi
    What is this? What is this?
[59:38] Hiiragi
    I'm already crying my eyes out...
[59:42] Hiiragi
    And he's got the biggest grin
    on his face. Really?
[59:46] Hiiragi
    What the hell's going on with his emotions?
[59:50] Hiiragi
    But...
[59:52] Hiiragi
    He's showing his teeth as he smiles.
[59:56] Hiiragi
    He's smiling the same way
    he did last time...
[59:59] Hiiragi
    Wait.
[1:00:01] Hiiragi
    I guess he might've been
    showing his teeth back then, too.
[1:00:22] Shizusumi
    Yesterday... he let me do everything...
[1:00:26] Shizusumi
    Even the things I felt a little bad about...
[1:00:30] Shizusumi
    He let me do all of them.
[1:00:35] Shizusumi
    He let me do them.
[1:00:39] Shizusumi
    This is the best.
[1:00:42] Hiiragi
    What time is...
[1:00:48] Shizusumi
    Hiiragi.
[1:00:51] Shizusumi
    I love you.
[1:00:53] Shizusumi
    Let me stay by your side...
[1:00:56] Shizusumi
    until I die.
[1:00:58] Hiiragi
    Until... you die?
[1:01:00] Hiiragi
    Wh-What?!
[1:01:03] Hiiragi
    You're so freakin' dramatic, Shizu.
[1:01:05] Shizusumi
    Am I?
[1:01:07] Hiiragi
    That's how you're going to ask me out?
[1:01:09] Hiiragi
    Why can't you ask normally?
[1:01:11] Shizusumi
    That was the most casual way I had.
[1:01:14] Hiiragi
    God, you're dramatic.
[1:01:19] Staff A
    All right. We will now begin our shoot
    for the music video for syh's "Parade."
[1:01:24] Staff A
    It's a pleasure to work you all today!
[1:01:26] All
    Thank you.
[1:01:35] Makeup Artist
    You're all set.
[1:01:36] Hiiragi
    Thanks!
[1:01:39] Ritsuka
    You need this many people
    to shoot a music video?
[1:01:42] Staff C
    I can take your water for you.
[1:01:44] Ritsuka
    Uh... Thank you.
[1:01:46] Staff B
    Cameras are ready!
[1:01:48] Staff A
    Thanks for waiting!
[1:01:50] Director
    Here we go!
[1:02:03] [SONG] Song
    Within internal arguments
[1:02:06] [SONG] Song
    opinions come and go
[1:02:08] [SONG] Song
    Delight, anger, sorrow, and pleasure
[1:02:11] [SONG] Song
    Are covered by a mask
[1:02:14] [SONG] Song
    My own thoughts
[1:02:16] [SONG] Song
    I don't have confidence
[1:02:19] [SONG] Song
    Again, towards a sloppy direction
[1:02:22] [SONG] Song
    the screen invites me
[1:02:26] [SONG] Song
    Can you hear
[1:02:29] [SONG] Song
    the restless mood?
[1:02:30] [SONG] Song
    Get ready for it
[1:02:33] [SONG] Song
    and I'll be waiting for you
[1:02:35] [SONG] Song
    Now, come with me
[1:02:37] [SONG] Song
    to our dream parade
[1:02:41] [SONG] Song
    Don't be afraid, it's not scary
[1:02:45] [SONG] Song
    Hey, holding up the rotten justice
[1:02:49] [SONG] Song
    the masquerade sneers hope;
    let's escape from it
[1:02:54] [SONG] Song
    and parade in the way you are
[1:03:09] Ritsuka
    Damn it! He always pisses me off!
[1:03:16] (Flashback) Ritsuka
    Hey, Hiiragi.
[1:03:18] (Flashback) Ritsuka
    Did something happen with you?
[1:03:19] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    Huh?
[1:03:20] (Flashback) Ritsuka
    Your sound sorta changed... and
    I think the way you sing has, too.
[1:03:25] (Flashback) Ritsuka
    Did you two—
[1:03:27] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    N-Nothing happened!
[1:03:29] (Flashback) Ritsuka
    I guess I hit the nail on the—
[1:03:30] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    You didn't hit shit! Just shut up
    and go buy our food already!
[1:03:34] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    I want the cheeseburger meal!
[1:03:36] (Flashback) Hiiragi
    Thanks! 'Preciate it!
[1:03:40] Ritsuka
    He's always provoking me!
[1:03:43] Ritsuka
    And yet, he's always an
    emotional roller coaster!
[1:03:45] Ritsuka
    Being in a band with him for too long is
    gonna send my emotions off the rails, too!
[1:03:49] Shizusumi
    I see.
[1:03:50] Ritsuka
    Your music is awesome, at least...
[1:03:53] Shizusumi
    I see.
[1:03:56] Ritsuka
    "I see. I see."
[1:03:58] Ritsuka
    I've thought so for a while, but you
     seriously lack any presence.
[1:04:01] Ritsuka
    How'd you end up in a band with Hiiragi?
[1:04:06] Shizusumi
    Because I love him.
[1:04:11] Shizusumi
    It's green.
[1:04:13] Ritsuka
    W-Wait a sec!
[1:04:16] Ritsuka
    Wait. Are you two actually going out, then?
[1:04:19] Shizusumi
    Yeah.
[1:04:20] Ritsuka
    Huh?!
[1:04:22] Ritsuka
    Hooking up when you're
     the only two in the band...
[1:04:24] Ritsuka
    That seems worse than our band.
[1:04:25] Shizusumi
    Does it?
[1:04:27] Ritsuka
    I mean... you guys are pros!
    That's different from us.
[1:04:32] Ritsuka
    Not to mention...
[1:04:33] Ritsuka
    Don't you think about how your sound
    might change if things get in the way?
[1:04:42] Shizusumi
    I like music. I'm pretty sure
    I'm taking it rather seriously.
[1:04:47] Shizusumi
    More than you, even.
[1:04:49] Shizusumi
    I'm doing music so I can
    stay by Hiiragi's side.
[1:04:54] Shizusumi
    There's nothing else.
[1:04:56] Shizusumi
    So there'll be no change
    or hesitation in my music.
[1:04:59] Shizusumi
    I can sacrifice myself for Hiiragi's music.
[1:05:03] Shizusumi
    I can't be like you or Mafuyu...
[1:05:07] Shizusumi
    But I've never felt suffering like you
    guys have... and that's my strength.
[1:05:14] Ritsuka
    This dude's messed up.
[1:05:17] Ritsuka
    He's actually insane.
[1:05:20] Ritsuka
    I thought he had no sense of self and
    was just doing what was asked of him,
[1:05:24] Ritsuka
    but it's the total opposite.
[1:05:26] Ritsuka
    I didn't know guys like him existed.
[1:05:30] Ritsuka
    He's a bit extreme,
[1:05:32] Ritsuka
    but I'm actually sorta jealous
    of the way he doesn't hesitate.
[1:05:46] Yuki
    Mafuyu. Mafuyu.
[1:05:57] Mafuyu
    Oh...
[1:05:58] Mafuyu
    I'm dreaming about Yuki.
[1:06:01] Mafuyu
    Are you going off somewhere again?
[1:06:04] Mafuyu
    Oh, right. He formed a band with the others.
[1:06:07] Mafuyu
    Wait.
[1:06:09] Mafuyu
    I'm really lonely, so don't leave me behind.
[1:06:12] Mafuyu
    Wai—
[1:06:16] Mafuyu
    My voice won't come out.
[1:06:20] [SONG] Song
    Let's escape from it
[1:06:22] [SONG] Song
    and parade in the way you are
SIGN    "Parade"
[1:06:38] Mafuyu
    A dream...
[1:06:41] Mafuyu
    Lately, I can't hear music.
[1:06:45] Mafuyu
    From the moment I met Uenoyama-kun...
[1:06:48] Mafuyu
    No matter what we did,
[1:06:50] Mafuyu
    it never stopped playing, but now...
[1:06:54] Mafuyu
    Huh?
[1:06:58] Mafuyu
    How long have I not been singing?
[1:07:02] Mafuyu
    How did I even sing?
[1:07:07] [SONG] Song
    My heart pounds every time you smile
[1:07:12] [SONG] Song
    Now I know that this flickering is love
[1:07:17] [SONG] Song
    It's driving me crazy
[1:07:21] [SONG] Song
    My feelings cannot be described
    with beautiful words
[1:07:27] [SONG] Song
    ”It will only cause trouble."
[1:07:30] [SONG] Song
    "They will never get along."
[1:07:32] [SONG] Song
    Even if the rest of the world
    is trying to get in our way
[1:07:40] [SONG] Song
    I don't care about it anymore
[1:07:41] [SONG] Song
    I truly love you from the bottom of my heart
[1:07:45] [SONG] Song
    That's all I'm living for
[1:07:48] [SONG] Song
    We don't need scientific evidence
[1:07:51] [SONG] Song
    I don't care about it anymore
[1:07:52] [SONG] Song
    I can give up everything for you
[1:07:55] [SONG] Song
    With this Super Ultra I LOVE YOU in my heart
[1:07:59] [SONG] Song
    I sing this song for you
[1:08:13] [SONG] Song
    Benefit or justice cannot measure love
[1:08:18] [SONG] Song
    We fall in love again
    without learning a lesson
[1:08:24] [SONG] Song
    If they don’t understand us, that's okay
[1:08:28] [SONG] Song
    Ah, I'm holding the regrets in my arms
[1:08:34] [SONG] Song
    A container labeled "Human Being"
[1:08:37] [SONG] Song
    We're all squeezed inside it
[1:08:39] [SONG] Song
    At least for this invisible feeling of love
[1:08:42] [SONG] Song
    I wish it will stay free
[1:08:46] [SONG] Song
    I don't care about it anymore
[1:08:58] [SONG] Song
    Even without words, we seek each other
[1:09:03] [SONG] Song
    Trying to communicate with
    what we have just learned
[1:09:09] [SONG] Song
    With those heavily used,
    old-fashioned phrases
[1:09:14] [SONG] Song
    This feeling cannot be fully described
[1:09:22] [SONG] Song
    I don't care about it anymore
[1:09:24] [SONG] Song
    I truly love you from the bottom of my heart
[1:09:28] [SONG] Song
    That's all I'm living for
[1:09:30] [SONG] Song
    We don't need scientific evidence
[1:09:33] [SONG] Song
    I don't care about it anymore
[1:09:34] [SONG] Song
    I can give up everything for you
[1:09:38] [SONG] Song
    With this Super Ultra I LOVE YOU in my heart
[1:09:42] [SONG] Song
    I sing this song for you
[1:10:07] [SONG] Song
    My heart pounds every time you smile
[1:10:12] [SONG] Song
    Now I know that this flickering is love
