**[00:32] Itaya**
Hey, did you know?
**[00:34] Ritsuka**
What?
**[00:34] Itaya**
Those really annoying
screechy things out right now?
**[00:37] Itaya**
Apparently, they're all virgins.
**[00:39] Ritsuka**
For real?
**[00:40] Ueki**
Wait, they can't all be virgins.
There's gotta be chicks, right?
**[00:43] Itaya**
Nah, apparently only the male
ones screech like that.
**[00:46] Ueki**
Huh...
***SIGN*** Tea
**[00:47] Itaya**
If you could translate the screeching into
words, they're yelling, "I wanna get laid!"
**[00:52] Ritsuka**
Oh, shit.
**[00:53] Itaya**
They usually spend all their time
being lazy and sleeping in the dirt,
**[00:57] Itaya**
but they think if they let loose
and screech a little, they can get laid.

**[01:00] Ritsuka**
Huh? That's pretty messed up.
**[01:03] Itaya**
Yeah, it's kinda pissing me off.
**[01:07] Ritsuka**
I wish I could let loose in the
summer and then just graduate.
**[01:12] Ueki**
Hey, dumbasses. When are you gonna
realize that the heat's melting your brains?
**[01:16] Itaya**
I mean, why do we gotta come to school
when we're done with our first term?
**[01:21] Itaya**
How stupid is that?!
**[01:22] Ueki**
It's because *we're* stupid
that we're here, moron.
**[01:28] Itaya**
Oh, yeah. Where's Mafuyu?
**[01:31] Ritsuka**
He doesn't have remedial classes today.
**[01:33] Itaya**
Huh? But why?
**[01:34] Ueki**
Because he got more than
70 points, you dumbass.
**[01:38] Itaya**
Speaking of, you two haven't
been together as much lately.
**[01:44] Ritsuka**
That's because... he's basically been
living at one of our bandmate's places.
**[01:49] Itaya**
Huh... Why so suddenly?
**[01:53] Ritsuka**
*Mafuyu has attached himself to Kaji-san,*
**[01:56] Ritsuka**
* who has the widest range of musical*
* experience out of all of us.*
**[01:59] Ritsuka**
* He's currently absorbing music like*
* an empty pool being filled with water.*

Hey.

We're going to find where it points out
this dilemma in this next paragraph.
**[02:44] Female Teacher**
The two factors that are conflicting
inside the protagonist's mind
**[02:48] Female Teacher**
are described in length in a monologue,
**[02:51] Female Teacher**
so let's find where that key moment is...
**[02:57] Mafuyu**
Uenoyama-kun.
**[02:58] Mafuyu**
Can we walk home together?
**[03:03] Ritsuka**
What were you doing yesterday?
**[03:04] Mafuyu**
Huh?
**[03:05] Ritsuka**
You never replied to me.
**[03:09] Ritsuka**
I mean, I know you weren't
trying to be rude or anything.
**[03:14] Mafuyu**
I was at Kaji-san's place
writing songs yesterday.
**[03:18] Mafuyu**
My phone was dead.
**[03:22] Mafuyu**
Um, hey... Are you mad?
**[03:29] Ritsuka**
Hey, have you really been
with Kaji-san every day lately?
**[03:34] Mafuyu**
Ye—
**[03:37] Ritsuka**
You really think I wouldn't be mad?
**[03:44] Ritsuka**
Damn it. Never mind.
**[03:51] Mafuyu**
But why... are you mad?
**[03:53] Ritsuka**
Huh?! You really can't tell?!
**[03:55] Mafuyu**
No... I can't.
**[03:58] Ritsuka**
How stupid are you?!
**[04:00] Ritsuka**
Can't you tell from how this
conversation's been going?!
**[04:02] Mafuyu**
I might... be able to tell...
**[04:04] Ritsuka**
Well, which is it?!
**[04:05] Mafuyu**
But... I need to find out for sure!
**[04:09] Mafuyu**
Or...
**[04:11] Mafuyu**
Or it'll... all fall apart.
**[04:16] Ritsuka**
*Holy...*
**[04:19] Ritsuka**
*shit, I'm so lame!*
**[04:24] Student A**
What time does club start today?
**[04:26] Student B**
Two.
**[04:27] Student A**
Let's go to the cafeteria, then.
**[04:29] Student B**
Is it even open today?
**[04:35] Ritsuka**
Just reply to me next time.
**[04:39] Ritsuka**
And let me hear the song.
**[04:41] Mafuyu**
It's nowhere near done, though.
**[04:44] Ritsuka**
I don't care.
**[04:45] Mafuyu**
Kaji-san's not interested in me.
**[04:48] Ritsuka**
I know that, stupid!
**[05:02] Mafuyu**
We're in the classroom.
**[05:06] Ritsuka**
Throw me a bone here.
**[05:08] Mafuyu**
There are people in the hall.
**[05:10] Ritsuka**
Yeah...
**[05:19] Ritsuka**
*For cryin' out loud!*
**[05:26] Mafuyu**
I can't write any lyrics.
**[05:27] Hiiragi**
There he goes again.
**[05:30] Mafuyu**
You better watch that pointer finger
of yours, 'cause I might break it.
**[05:33] Hiiragi**
You gonna be okay taking things so easily?
**[05:36] Hiiragi**
Our performances get judged in the fall.
**[05:39] Mafuyu**
How's everything going with you guys?
**[05:41] Hiiragi**
Who do you think you're talking to here?
**[05:43] Mafuyu**
How do you come up
with your lyrics, Hiiragi?
**[05:47] Hiiragi**
Honestly, just by how it sounds.
**[05:48] Mafuyu**
How it sounds?
**[05:51] Hiiragi**
Oh?
**[05:53] Hiiragi**
Is that your new boyfriend?
**[05:55] Mafuyu**
You've seen him before.
**[05:57] Hiiragi**
He looks pissy.
**[05:59] Hiiragi**
What do you like about him?
**[06:01] Mafuyu**
Don't worry, he's not as pissy as you.
**[06:04] Hiiragi**
Huh?
**[06:05] Mafuyu**
Thanks for helping me put on my yukata.
**[06:08] Mafuyu**
Hurry up and get together
with Shizu-chan already.
**[06:10] Hiiragi**
What?!
**[06:12] Hiiragi**
Wha—
**[06:22] Hiiragi**
Shizu's late...
**[06:25] Mafuyu**
The fireworks are gonna start.
**[06:27] Ritsuka**
Yeah...
**[06:29] Ritsuka**
*I didn't think he'd come in a yukata!*
**[06:33] Mafuyu**
How does my yukata look?
**[06:35] Ritsuka**
I'm not used to seeing you
in one... but it's nice.
**[06:38] Mafuyu**
Oh.
**[06:45] Mafuyu**
This might be the first time
we're seeing each other
**[06:47] Mafuyu**
outside of the studio and school.
**[06:49] Ritsuka**
For real. I was pretty much
either working or at the studio.
***SIGN*** Buttered Potatoes

**[06:52] Ritsuka**
We barely got to tal—
**[06:57] Mafuyu**
But we did talk. We fought, remember?
**[07:06] Ritsuka**
Haruki-san, you seem to
be playing better recently.
**[07:10] Haruki**
Huh? Really?
**[07:11] Ritsuka**
You're paying close attention to what
I'm doing. It really helps me out.
**[07:15] Haruki**
Thanks.
**[07:17] Ritsuka**
Er, your drums are meshing nicely, too.
**[07:22] Ritsuka**
You need to work on
getting a little bit better.
**[07:26] Ritsuka**
Don't take an attitude with me!
**[07:29] Ritsuka**
All right, we're heading out.
**[07:30] Akihiko**
See ya.
**[07:31] Haruka**
Good work.
**[07:32] Mafuyu**
Good work.
**[07:40] Ritsuka**
So... are you seriously coming
over to my place right now?
**[07:44] Ritsuka**
*Today's actually the day...*
**[07:47] Ritsuka**
*Mafuyu's spending the night at my place.*
**[07:51] Ritsuka**
* The reasons being that our studio*
* practice was late tonight,*
**[07:54] Ritsuka**
* and the new term's opening*
* ceremony is super early tomorrow.*
**[07:57] Ritsuka**
* My place is close to the school, so we're*
* just gonna go to school from there.*

**[08:01] Ritsuka**
*Ulterior motives...*
**[08:03] Ritsuka**
*probably aren't part of this.*
**[08:04] Ritsuka**
*But is this really okay?*
**[08:06] Ritsuka**
*We good?*
**[08:07] Ritsuka**
*Wait, is* what *good?*
**[08:09] Ritsuka**
*My family's home, so we'll be fine...*
**[08:15] (Flashback) Itaya**
The cicadas are basically
screeching, "I wanna get laid."
**[08:24] Ritsuka**
Shut up!
**[08:44] Mafuyu**
I'm finished.
**[08:46] Ritsuka**
R-Right!
**[08:50] Mafuyu**
You know, when I actually think about it,
**[08:52] Mafuyu**
this is really sudden.
**[08:53] Ritsuka**
*It'll be okay. My sister's in the next room.*
**[08:57] Ritsuka**
*It'll be okay...*
**[08:59] Ritsuka**
Anyway.
**[09:01] Ritsuka**
Go right to sleep.
**[09:02] Mafuyu**
Right to sleep...
**[09:06] Ritsuka**
Night.
**[09:12] Mafuyu**
Night.
**[09:24] Ritsuka**
* How the hell am I supposed*
* to go right to sleep?!*
**[09:27] Ritsuka**
* Oh, God... I shouldn't have just*
* casually invited him to stay over.*
**[09:36] Ritsuka**
* I mean, what do I actually think*
* about being with a guy?*
**[09:42] Ritsuka**
* It's not like I don't think about what*
* I actually want to do with him.*
**[09:47] Ritsuka**
*I do, but...*
**[09:52] Mafuyu**
That clock...
**[09:56] Mafuyu**
It's the same one that was at Yuki's place...
**[10:08] Ritsuka**
Hey...
**[10:10] Mafuyu**
Sorry. Did I say something weird?
**[10:14] Ritsuka**
No! That's not it.
**[10:18] Ritsuka**
I don't know much about your past,
**[10:22] Ritsuka**
but stop looking like you're
going to cry when you're with me.
**[10:43] Akihiko**
I sent you the recording.
**[10:45] Ritsuka**
Thanks.
**[10:46] Haruki**
Mafuyu, what's that thing about?
**[10:48] Mafuyu**
Huh?
**[10:49] Haruki**
You know, when you stick random
words in between the "la la la"s.
**[10:54] Ritsuka**
Is that trial and error?
**[10:56] Mafuyu**
Yeah.
**[10:59] Haruki**
So for this performance...
What exactly do we want to do?
**[11:02] Ritsuka**
If we're not done with the song
we're making right now,
**[11:05] Ritsuka**
we'll do one of our old songs.
**[11:07] Ritsuka**
But if possible, I want to go
with the song we're making now.
**[11:11] Akihiko**
Why?
**[11:13] Ritsuka**
I'm pretty sure at least a few of the judges
**[11:15] Ritsuka**
have heard our old songs online by now.
**[11:18] Akihiko**
Wouldn't that also mean
playing one of our older songs
**[11:20] Akihiko**
would be less pressure for all of us?
**[11:22] Ritsuka**
That's a good point, but it lacks
the impact of something new.
**[11:27] Ritsuka**
I want people to see even
more of Mafuyu's potential.
**[11:30] Ritsuka**
I think we can still go higher.
**[11:34] Ritsuka**
This is our chance, so I want to go all-in.
**[11:39] Mafuyu**
Wow, you're so cool.
**[11:42] Haruki**
Wow, you're so cool.
**[11:46] Akihiko**
Wow, you're so cool.
**[11:48] Ritsuka**
Can it!
**[11:49] Ritsuka**
Anyway, we need lyrics!
**[11:52] Ritsuka**
*I know what I said, but...*
**[11:55] Itaya**
Let's! Let's! Let's play basketball!
**[11:59] Itaya**
Let's go, Uenoyama.
**[12:04] Ritsuka**
We probably need to take
a different approach.
**[12:06] Mafuyu**
Huh?
**[12:07] Ritsuka**
I'm talking about the lyrics.
**[12:09] Ritsuka**
You mentioned that you wanted
to write a different song this time.
**[12:15] Mafuyu**
It's not like I don't have any ideas at all...
**[12:18] Mafuyu**
It's just that when I feel
like I'm almost there,
**[12:22] Mafuyu**
I just can't find the final piece
that will fit perfectly.
**[12:26] Ritsuka**
In that case, why don't you go look for it?
**[12:30] Ritsuka**
Your creative process probably
depends on what you're feeling
**[12:34] Ritsuka**
and the influence of those
around you, right?
**[12:42] Ueki**
Let's...
**[12:43] Ritsuka**
...friggin'...
**[12:44] Itaya**
...eat!
**[12:46] Itaya**
We're finally getting some
cool days here and there.
**[12:50] Itaya**
Having to do club stuff in the summer sucks.
**[12:52] Ueki**
Our gym's layout is shitty, though.
**[12:55] Itaya**
Do you guys do your band
thing every day like a club?
**[12:59] Ritsuka**
Whenever we have time off, pretty much.
**[13:01] Itaya**
Damn, so it really is a club.
**[13:03] Ueki**
You said you had some kind of
competition coming up, didn't you?
**[13:06] Ritsuka**
Mm.
**[13:07] Ueki**
When is it?
**[13:09] Ritsuka**
Next month.
***SIGN*** Haruki Nakayama
The day of the CAC has been decided
**[13:15] Ritsuka**
Mafuyu.
**[13:18] Ritsuka**
The day of our deliberation's been set.
**[13:21] Ritsuka**
You think you can make it?
**[13:22] Mafuyu**
Mm. The lyrics are done.
**[13:26] Mafuyu**
I'm ready.
**[13:31] Ritsuka**
Hm?
**[13:33] Ritsuka**
Huh?
**[13:37] Ritsuka**
Hey.
**[13:38] Ritsuka**
Mafuyu?
**[13:40] Ritsuka**
What the hell?
**[13:45] Mafuyu**
I want you to hear it first, Uenoyama-kun.
**[13:49] Ritsuka**
You mean right here?
**[13:50] Mafuyu**
Mm.
**[13:54] Mafuyu**
*Our hands drift apart,*
**[14:00] Mafuyu**
*no matter how much I don't want them to.*
**[14:09] Mafuyu (Song)**
*Even if I can't sleep, a new day will dawn*
**[14:15] Mafuyu (Song)**
*And I sit here staring at it*
**[14:22] Mafuyu (Song)**
*The things that are changing,
the things that are ending*
**[14:28] Mafuyu (Song)**
*The things that are about to begin*
**[14:34] Mafuyu**
*But still...*
**[14:36] Mafuyu (Song)**
*Even though you're gone,
a new day will dawn*
**[14:43] Mafuyu (Song)**
*My hand is empty now, but one day
I'll find another hand to hold*
**[14:49] Mafuyu (Song)**
*After the long night, we discover the light*
**[15:01] Mafuyu (Song)**
*That's why even if we're
scared, we can live on*
**[15:08] Mafuyu (Song)**
*So long as the sun rises,
we can take that step forward again*
**[15:14] Mafuyu (Song)**
*See? Soon now, a new day will dawn*
**[15:21] Mafuyu (Song)**
*So don't worry—*
**[15:41] Mafuyu**
Uenoyama-kun.
**[15:46] Ritsuka**
God damn it.
**[15:49] Ritsuka**
*Hearing him sing something like this...*
**[15:52] Ritsuka**
I think it's great.
**[15:54] Ritsuka**
* ...made all of my worries*
* and doubts just disappear.*
**[16:02] Ritsuka**
*He made it so they didn't matter anymore.*
**[16:09] Hiiragi**
Mafuyu.
**[16:12] Mafuyu**
Hiiragi.
**[16:13] Mafuyu**
Um, Uenoyama-kun...
**[16:14] Mafuyu**
These are Shizusumi and Hiiragi,
my friends I've known since I was little.
**[16:19] Mafuyu**
They're both competing today, too.
**[16:21] Ritsuka**
Ah... Hello.
**[16:23] Mafuyu**
I told you about him before.
This is Uenoyama-kun.
**[16:27] Mafuyu**
My boyfriend.
**[16:29] Shizusumi**
Huh?
**[16:30] Mafuyu**
He's the guitarist in our band.
**[16:34] Hiiragi**
Oh, really?
**[16:38] Shizusumi**
Boyfriend?
**[16:39] Mafuyu**
I think this is the first time
you've met him, Shizu-chan.
**[16:43] Mafuyu**
But you've met Hiiragi before, right?
**[16:44] Ritsuka**
Huh? Wha...
**[16:48] Mafuyu**
Maybe you don't remember.
**[16:51] Hiiragi**
Man, you suck!
**[16:53] Ritsuka**
Huh?
**[16:53] Hiiragi**
More importantly, why are
you even here today?
**[16:56] Hiiragi**
Isn't your band playing tomorrow?
**[16:59] Hiiragi**
Did the little high schooler come
to see his first little concert?
**[17:04] Mafuyu**
Yeah, no. I get it.
**[17:07] Hiiragi**
But you know...
**[17:09] Hiiragi**
This seems like a normal concert.
How are they even judging us?
**[17:13] Ritsuka**
You should've gotten
a piece of paper up front.
**[17:15] Ritsuka**
You vote with these,
and the results are instant.
**[17:18] Mafuyu, Shizusumi & Hiiragi**
Huh...
**[17:19] Ritsuka**
How are *all* of you reacting that way?
**[17:22] Hiiragi**
Anyway, we're gonna meet up
with the rest of our band.
**[17:27] Mafuyu**
Okay. Let me know how
the sound is onstage later.
**[17:30] Hiiragi**
Sure thing.
**[17:32] Mafuyu**
Do your best.
**[17:34] Hiiragi**
Just sit back and watch.
**[17:37] Mafuyu**
Where does all that
confidence even come from?
**[17:43] Mafuyu**
That was amazing.
**[17:45] Ritsuka**
Yeah, it was. They were all really good.
**[17:49] Mafuyu**
Hiiragi did well, too.
**[17:51] Ritsuka**
I hate to admit it, but he's super good.
**[17:54] Ritsuka**
He has a talent for making songs.
**[17:56] Ritsuka**
He's really skilled.
**[17:58] Ritsuka**
The second band was also...
**[18:01] Ritsuka**
What?
**[18:02] Ritsuka**
Wh-Wh-What the hell?!
**[18:07] Mafuyu**
What should I do? I'm getting nervous.
**[18:10] Ritsuka**
What? You can actually get nervous?
**[18:13] Mafuyu**
When I start wondering if
I'll be able to sing okay...
**[18:16] Mafuyu**
I get... scared.
**[18:19] Mafuyu**
I want to express how I feel.
I want people to understand.
**[18:23] Mafuyu**
I'm getting greedy.
**[18:26] Ritsuka**
You sure have changed.
**[18:29] Ritsuka**
At first, you were all, "I can't be
in a band. I'm not thinking anything.
**[18:33] Ritsuka**
I don't know how to express myself."
**[18:35] Ritsuka**
You were just moping around.
**[18:40] Ritsuka**
Come here.
