# Hitoribocchi no Marumaruseikatsu
Hitori Bocchi, a girl with extreme social anxiety, has had only one friend throughout elementary school. When Bocchi learns they'll be split up after graduation, she makes a promise to her: "By the time of my middle school graduation, I'll make friends with everyone in my class." And if she can't... they won't be friends anymore?! But Bocchi has a hard time talking to people. When she gets nervous, her legs cramp. She can't look other people in the eye. She doesn't even know how to make friends! Every way she thinks of to make friends ends up failing. Will her friend-making plan pay off?!

**[02:01] (Flashback) Kai**
I've decided to cut ties with you
**[02:04] (Flashback) ---**
until you befriend everyone in your

**[02:08] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Huh?! That's impossible!
**[02:10] (Flashback) Kai**
It's not impossible!
**[02:12] (Flashback) Kai**
Promise me.

This is crazy!

*I got carried away!*
**[04:33] Bocchi**
*Was that a crime? Will I be arrested?!*
**[04:36] Notsugi**
Looks like this is going to be a fun class.
**[04:39] Nosaki**
Seems fun, yeah.

class is going to be fun.
**[05:01] Yanai**

After all, you've never
once broken a promise!
**[05:50] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Kai-chan...
**[05:52] (Flashback) Kai**
I think.
**[05:54] Bocchi**
Kai-chan, you just said that
in the moment, didn't you?
**[05:58] Bocchi**
*This notebook was a mistake.*
**[06:01] Bocchi**
*My promise was to befriend everyone.*
**[06:04] Bocchi**
*I really do just have to give it my best try!*
**[06:11] Bocchi**
* I'll open this door and give*
* a big greeting to everyone.*
**[06:15] Bocchi**
*That's where I'll start!*
**[06:17] Bocchi**
*Right here!*
**[06:23] Bocchi**
*I just can't do it.*
**[06:25] Bocchi**
* I've never even seen someone greet*
* everyone at the door in a drama!*
**[06:29] Ito**
I'm shy!
**[06:32] Bocchi**
*That girl's shy, just like me.*
**[06:35] Bocchi**
*So I guess I shouldn't call out to her!*
**[06:38] Rau**
Morning!
**[06:39] Kako**
Whoa, we just met and you're so close!
**[06:42] Bocchi**
*That girl isn't shy like me.*
**[06:46] Bocchi**
*So I guess I shouldn't call out to her!*
**[06:50] Bocchi**
*There are all kinds of people here.*
**[06:54] Bocchi**

Well, now that the entrance
ceremony is all over,
**[07:23] Teruyo**
let's start off with introductions.
**[07:25] Bocchi**
*This is it!*
**[07:27] Rau**
I'm Minagawa Rau.
**[07:29] Rau**
I hope this proves to be a fun class.
**[07:31] Rau**
Nice to meet you.

**[07:40] Bocchi**

Y-Yes!

*Cheerful, now! Cheerful!*
**[08:01] Bocchi**
I-I-I-I-I...
**[08:12] Teruyo**
Hitori-san?
**[08:21] Bocchi**
Blegh!
**[08:29] Bocchi**
Introductions are impossible for me.
**[08:32] Bocchi**
Talking to someone else is
already torture as-is.
**[08:35] Bocchi**
For now, though, I need to try talking to
the person in the seat in front of me.
**[08:43] Bocchi**
*Sunao-san, was it?*
**[08:46] Bocchi**
* She's kind of scary, but*
* I need to speak to her.*
**[09:10] Bocchi**
*My leg cramped!*
**[09:13] Bocchi**
*Five seconds!*
**[09:14] Bocchi**
* I'll rest five seconds,*
* then try speaking to her.*
**[09:16] Bocchi**
*One, two, three, four...*
**[09:22] ---**
*Five!*
**[09:23] Bocchi**
Six, seven, seven, eight...
**[09:29] Bocchi**
Ah, I went too far!
**[09:31] Nako**
What is it, Barf?
**[09:35] Bocchi**
*Barf?!*
**[09:37] Bocchi**
*But more importantly!*
**[09:39] Bocchi**
*She spoke to me!*
**[09:44] Bocchi**
*How long has it been?*
**[09:46] Bocchi**
*Since I conversed with someone my age...*
**[09:49] Bocchi**
*Sunao-san...*
**[09:50] Bocchi**
*She's such a nice... person.*
**[09:56] Nako**
What on earth?!
**[10:12] Bocchi**
My great-grandmother said
**[10:13] Bocchi**
this is good for your throat.
**[10:16] Bocchi**
G-Grandmother...
**[10:18] Nako**
Who are you calling grand—?
**[10:21] Bocchi**
I... I'll give you one.
**[10:30] Nako**
Do you want to be a gofer or something?
**[10:33] Bocchi**
Gofer?
**[10:34] Nako**
I don't really understand those kinds
of ideas, so could you go try someone else?
**[10:39] Bocchi**
*Gofer...*
**[10:41] Bocchi**
Would being a gofer count as being friends?
**[10:45] Nako**
Huh?
**[10:46] Bocchi**
I want to be friends...
**[10:50] Bocchi**
With you.
**[10:51] Bocchi**
But I don't know how to become one.
**[10:55] Bocchi**
I'm sorry for bothering you.
**[11:11] Bocchi**
*I'm finished.*
**[11:13] Bocchi**
*Now Kai-chan and I will never...*
**[11:21] Bocchi**
*Huh? That's Sunao-san's...*
**[11:26] (Flashback) Nako**
Do you want to be a gofer or something?
**[11:30] Bocchi**
Wh-What do I do?!
**[11:38] Teruyo**
Okay.
**[11:39] Teruyo**
Well, class starts tomorrow, so I hope
you'll all get along and do your best.
**[11:43] Class**
Yes!
**[11:44] Bocchi**
Get along...
**[11:50] Nako**
Rain, huh?
**[11:51] Nako**
I forgot my umbrella.
**[11:55] Nako**
Hey...
**[11:57] Bocchi**
Take mine.
**[11:58] Bocchi**
I'm not doing this as a gofer.
**[12:00] Bocchi**
It's just, you were coughing.
**[12:03] Bocchi**
Also, take this.
**[12:04] Bocchi**
You mustn't follow the downward spiral!
**[12:08] Nako**
Ah, hey! What does that even mean?!
**[12:16] Bocchi**
*I ran. I ran.*
**[12:18] Bocchi**
*In the end, I ran!*
**[12:20] Bocchi**
* Kai-chan, I don't think I'll be able*
* to keep our promise after all.*
**[12:23] Nako**
Hey!
**[12:25] Bocchi**
*Sunao-san was a nice person.*
**[12:28] Bocchi**
*She actually spoke to me.*
**[12:30] Nako**
Wait!
**[12:31] Nako**
Barf!
**[12:33] Bocchi**
*Even after I threw up...*
**[12:35] Nako**
Come on, I asked you to wait!
**[12:41] Bocchi**
Sunao-san?
**[12:42] Bocchi**
I'm sorry!
**[12:43] Bocchi**
I'm sorry!
**[12:44] Bocchi**
I'm sorry!
**[12:46] Nako**
Why are you apologizing?
**[12:47] Bocchi**
Oh, umm, because you were swinging the
umbrella with an awful look on your face.
**[12:53] Nako**
Huh?
**[12:55] Nako**
Oh, I guess you're right.
**[13:01] Nako**
If you only have one umbrella,
then we can just share it.
**[13:06] Nako**
Also, this is for the juice, okay?
**[13:12] Bocchi**
Sunao-sa—
**[13:13] Nako**
Also!
**[13:13] Bocchi**
Yes!
**[13:15] Nako**
You should call me Nako.
**[13:18] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[13:20] Nako**
Well, umm...
**[13:22] Nako**
I was happy when you said
you wanted to be friends.
**[13:26] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[13:27] Nako**
So you don't need to fret over me.
**[13:32] (Flashback) Kai**
Listen, Bocchi.
**[13:34] (Flashback) Kai**
The trick to making friends is
to start liking the other person.

Oh, I was trying to give
you a bright greeting.

Really?

Morning.
**[14:28] Bocchi**
M-Morning, Nako-chan.
**[14:30] Nako**
Is this on purpose?
**[14:32] Bocchi**
It's not...
**[14:34] Nako**
Then step back a bit.
**[14:36] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[14:37] Nako**
I said to get away from me.
**[14:39] Bocchi**
Does that mean you hate me now?
**[14:43] Nako**
No.
**[14:44] Nako**
How did you reach that misunderstanding?
**[14:46] Nako**
You want to greet me, right?
**[14:47] Bocchi**
Yes!
**[14:48] Nako**
Then move away from me.
**[14:51] Nako**
More.
**[14:53] Nako**
More.
**[14:55] Nako**
Yes, right there!
**[14:57] Bocchi**
Good morning, Nako-chan!
**[14:59] Nako**
Good morning.
**[15:02] Nako**
That doesn't feel silly to you?

What are you trying to do?!
**[15:44] Bocchi**
Uhh, I don't really use my cell phone much.
**[15:48] Bocchi**

Well, time to go home.
**[18:17] Bocchi**
Oh, yes.
**[18:19] Nako**
* Thinking on it, our only proper*
* conversation was this morning.*
**[18:23] Nako**
*Is it okay to leave things like this?*
**[18:27] Nako**
Would you stop fiddling with your
phone while you're walking already?
**[18:31] Bocchi**
Nako-chan...
**[18:32] Nako**
Hmm?
**[18:33] Bocchi**
It's fun chatting over the phone, isn't it?
**[18:42] Nako**
You okay?
**[18:43] Bocchi**
Yes!
**[18:46] Nako**
Hey!
**[18:49] Nako**
Hold off on the phone
until you get home, okay?
**[18:52] Bocchi**
Well... what are your favorite foods?
**[18:55] Nako**
Another one of your options?
**[18:57] Nako**
And this is the second time on that one.
**[18:58] Bocchi**
Oh, that was my second
time using that question.
**[19:01] Nako**
What a pain!
**[19:03] Bocchi**
Then... do you have any dreams?
**[19:05] Nako**
There are still more?
**[19:08] Nako**
I have one, but it's a secret.
**[19:10] Bocchi**
You have one, but it's a secret?
**[19:13] Nako**
Wh-What?
**[19:23] Bocchi**
Nako-chan!
**[19:25] Nako**
Hmm?
**[19:27] Bocchi**
It...
**[19:28] ---**
looks I've started liking you!
**[19:32] Nako**
Huh?!
**[19:33] Bocchi**
So...
**[19:35] Bocchi**
So will you be my friend?!
**[19:41] Nako**
Are you telling me you thought
we weren't friends already?
**[19:45] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[19:46] Bocchi**
But I haven't gotten a "yes" from you yet.
**[19:51] Nako**
You really are a bit of a weird one.
**[19:53] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[19:54] Nako**
You're eccentric, awkward, and kind.
**[19:58] Bocchi**
I-I'm sorry.
**[19:59] Nako**
It's not like I'm mad.
**[20:01] Bocchi**
But I haven't been able to talk well.
**[20:06] Bocchi**
I feel like I've been saying
nothing but strange things.
**[20:09] Nako**
That's why I said you're eccentric, okay?
**[20:12] Nako**
But that's the nice thing about you.
**[20:16] Bocchi**
Umm, you mean...?
**[20:20] Nako**
Do I have to make it obvious
for you to understand?
**[20:23] Nako**
It's okay.
**[20:25] Nako**
We can be friends.
**[20:27] Nako**
I mean, we've already been friends
since what happened yesterday, dummy.
**[20:33] Bocchi**
I'm really...
**[20:37] Bocchi**
really...
**[20:43] Bocchi**
glad!
**[20:48] Nako**
This is because you're happy, right?
**[20:59] Bocchi**
Oh, is this...
**[21:01] Nako**
What is it this time?
**[21:02] Bocchi**
I'm walking home together with
**[21:05] ---**
a friend for the first time since
starting middle school, aren't I?
**[21:09] Nako**
Weren't we together yesterday, too?
**[21:11] Bocchi**
We weren't friends yet then!
**[21:13] Bocchi**
I wasn't mentally prepared to
go home with a friend yesterday!
**[21:19] Nako**
Mentally prepared?
**[21:20] Bocchi**
Yes.
**[21:21] Bocchi**
Uhh, so...
***SIGN*** Umm!
**[21:36] Nako**
Hmm?
**[21:37] Bocchi**
I made a friend!
**[21:39] Nako**
Me, right?
**[21:41] Bocchi**
Yes!
**[21:42] Nako**
You wanted to say that to somebody?
**[21:44] Bocchi**
Yes.
**[21:46] Nako**
You don't have anyone other
than me to say that to?
**[21:48] Bocchi**
No!
**[21:57] Nako**
Come on, let's go, Bocchi.
**[21:59] Bocchi**
Yes, Nako-chan!
**[22:06] Bocchi**
*New friends? A new life?*
**[22:14] Bocchi**
*This is*

I need to apologize!

I know! I'll look it up on my phone.

How to apologize...

I'm in your class, too,

**[03:16] Aru**
So you made Sunao-san mad, huh?
**[03:19] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[03:20] Aru**
That must be terrible.
**[03:23] Bocchi**
Honshou-san, you're such a nice person.
**[03:27] Aru**
By the way,
**[03:29] Aru**
why are you being so wary?
**[03:31] Bocchi**
No, I'm not...

Well, whatever.

Okay! I'll lend you a hand.

As the vice president,
I'm supposed to resolve problems in our class!
**[03:47] Bocchi**
B-But...

Come on. Don't cry.
Talk to me about it.
**[04:09] Aru**
How did you make her mad?

How did I?

You don't know?
**[04:15] Bocchi**
No.

I think there's something wrong

*Yeah, it's impossible.*

**[05:13] (Flashback) Nako**
Oh, Bocchi, good morning.
**[05:17] (Flashback) Nako**
What's wrong?
**[05:19] (Flashback) Bocchi**
I'm incredible at night!
**[05:21] (Flashback) Nako**
Wh-Wh-What's this all of a sudden?!
**[05:26] (Flashback) Nako**
Hey, Bocchi?
**[05:28] (Flashback) Nako**
Want to explore the school?
**[05:30] (Flashback) Nako**
There are a lot of spots we haven't been

we explored the school...
**[05:49] (Flashback) Bocchi**
I thought you were the type
who didn't want to move too much.
**[05:53] (Flashback) Nako**
That's mean.
**[05:55] (Flashback) Nako**
Well, you're right about that,
but today's special.
**[06:00] (Flashback) Nako**
Since we're exploring.
**[06:01] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Right.
**[06:03] (Flashback) Nako**
So, what is that in your hands?
**[06:06] (Flashback) Bocchi**
I figured we needed a recorder
to go exploring.
**[06:09] (Flashback) Nako**
Why?
**[06:11] (Flashback) Nako**
Let's just go wherever we want.
**[06:13] (Flashback) Nako**
Up? Down?
**[06:16] (Flashback) Nako**
You can choose, Bocchi.
**[06:17] (Flashback) Bocchi**
U-Uh...
**[06:19] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Then...
**[06:20] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Let's start from below!
**[06:33] (Flashback) Nako**
Bocchi, I'm gonna leave you behind.
**[06:35] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Huh?

It seems that they sell bread

**[06:51] (Flashback) Nako**
Want to try buying some sometime?
**[06:53] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[07:01] (Flashback) Nako**
It's a suspicious bathroom.
**[07:02] (Flashback) Bocchi**
A suspicious bathroom?!
**[07:04] (Flashback) Nako**
It's suspicious.
**[07:06] (Flashback) Nako**
Looks like there could be something in there.
**[07:15] (Flashback) Bocchi**
There's something here!
**[07:16] (Flashback) Nako**
It's suspicious.
**[07:17] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Yeah! I'm going to take a look!
**[07:19] (Flashback) Nako**
Huh?
**[07:29] (Flashback) Bocchi**
There wasn't anything there.
**[07:31] (Flashback) Nako**
You weren't scared?
**[07:33] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Hardly anyone ever talks to me,
**[07:36] (Flashback) Bocchi**
so I thought it would be nice
if we could become friends.
**[07:39] (Flashback) Nako**
That's sad.
**[07:44] (Flashback) Bocchi**
A mirror?
**[07:45] (Flashback) Nako**
Why is there a full-length mirror?
**[07:47] (Flashback) Nako**
Bocchi, long skirts are no good on you.
**[07:50] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Th-They're not good?
**[07:52] (Flashback) Nako**
They're not good.
**[07:54] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Wh-What do I do?!
**[07:58] (Flashback) Nako**
It's almost time to finish our exploration.
**[08:00] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Already?!
**[08:04] (Flashback) Nako**
What are you trying to do now?
**[08:06] Bocchi**
So, then we had our afternoon classes,
and then...
**[08:10] Aru**
This keeps going?!
**[08:11] Bocchi**
I-I'm sorry!
**[08:13] Aru**
It's fine.
**[08:13] Aru**
So, what next?

I'm overwhelmed by this book
about becoming better friends.
**[09:34] (Flashback) Nako**
What book is that?
**[09:36] (Flashback) Bocchi**
I have it with me right now, but...
**[09:42] (Flashback) Nako**
I see.
**[09:44] (Flashback) Nako**
Sharing troubles, huh?
**[09:45] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[09:46] (Flashback) Nako**
So, do you have some troubles
you feel like sharing?
**[09:50] (Flashback) Bocchi**
I-I do!
**[09:51] (Flashback) Bocchi**
My concern is...
**[09:54] (Flashback) Bocchi**
I'm struggling to figure out
how to ask you what your troubles are.
**[09:58] (Flashback) Nako**
I see.
**[10:00] (Flashback) Nako**
Well, that's good.
**[10:01] (Flashback) Nako**
You resolved it. Just now.
**[10:04] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Huh?
**[10:10] (Flashback) Bocchi**
I haven't resolved anything.
**[10:14] (Flashback) Nako**
Don't cry!
**[10:15] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Then, what is, um, troubling you?
**[10:20] (Flashback) Nako**
Troubling me?
**[10:22] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Yes.
**[10:28] (Flashback) Nako**
I guess it's the fact that someone weird
has been following me around since school started.
**[10:32] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Someone weird?
**[10:35] (Flashback) Nako**
She suddenly said she wanted
to be friends with me,
**[10:39] (Flashback) Nako**
and I don't know what she's trying to do,
**[10:41] (Flashback) Nako**
but she's oddly proactive about it.
**[10:44] (Flashback) Nako**
Still, well, it's fun in its own way.
**[10:56] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Nako-chan.
**[10:58] (Flashback) Nako**
Hm?
**[10:59] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Do you think I can become friends
with this person, too?!
**[11:02] (Flashback) Nako**
Huh?!
**[11:04] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Where is she?!
**[11:16] (Flashback) Nako**
What's wrong?
**[11:17] Bocchi**
* Maybe it's this girl*
* that's following Nako-chan around!*
**[11:23] (Flashback) Bocchi**
W-Will you be my friend?!
**[11:26] Bocchi**
So, then we went home together that day.
**[11:30] Bocchi**
And now, today...
**[11:32] (Flashback) Nako**
Become friends with everyone in class?
**[11:35] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Yes!
**[11:36] (Flashback) Nako**
Why's that?
**[11:37] (Flashback) Bocchi**
I made a promise
**[11:40] (Flashback) Bocchi**
with my childhood friend, Kai-chan.
**[11:43] (Flashback) Bocchi**
She said she wouldn't be my friend anymore
until I became friends with everyone in class.
**[11:47] (Flashback) Nako**
Everyone?
**[11:48] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[11:49] (Flashback) Bocchi**
That's what Kai-chan said,
thinking it would be best for me.
**[11:53] (Flashback) Nako**
Hm...
**[11:55] (Flashback) Nako**
So what you're saying is
that your promise with that girl
**[11:59] (Flashback) ---**
is the reason you first spoke to me?
**[12:02] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[12:03] (Flashback) Nako**
Wow. Really?
**[12:06] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Huh?! What?
**[12:07] Bocchi**
*Wh-Wh-What do I do?*

U-Um, Nako-chan?

Huh?!
**[14:03] Nako**
Y-You idiot! People will get the wrong idea!
**[14:05] Nako**
And why are you in your gym clothes?!
**[14:07] Bocchi**
A-Also, um...
**[14:09] Bocchi**
When we were on our break
**[14:12] Aru**
Looks like you'll be fine now.
**[14:12] Bocchi**
and exploring the school, and you asked
me "Up or down?" and I answered "down"...
**[14:14] Aru**
I should get going.
**[14:16] Aru**
Sorry for disturbing you two!
**[14:17] Nako**
Ah, you've got the wrong idea!
**[14:19] Bocchi**
and then we suddenly found that
suspicious bathroom at the end of the hall,
**[14:21] Nako**
And this one's still going on...
**[14:23] Bocchi**
and I blew my recorder
as I went inside that bathroom,
**[14:24] Nako**
Bocchi!
**[14:27] Bocchi**
and I saw there wasn't anyone there—
**[14:27] Nako**
Bocchi!
**[14:28] Nako**
I get it. I'm not mad anymore.
**[14:32] Bocchi**
Nako-chan...
**[14:34] Bocchi**
Y-You mean it?
**[14:36] Nako**
I mean it.
**[14:39] Bocchi**
Thank goodness.
**[14:41] Bocchi**
But...
**[14:42] Nako**
Hm?
**[14:43] Bocchi**
What were you mad about in the first place?
**[14:45] Nako**
You didn't figure that out?!
**[14:48] Nako**
Um, I told you, right?
**[14:50] Nako**
That I was happy when you told me
you wanted to be friends.
**[14:54] Bocchi**
Nako-chan...
**[14:55] Nako**
So the thought you were fine
with anyone was a bit of a shock.
**[15:01] Bocchi**
Not anyone would do!
**[15:02] Bocchi**
It was because you're you!
**[15:04] Nako**
You're just saying that now.
**[15:06] Nako**
That wasn't your initial thought
at the time, right?
**[15:08] Bocchi**
At first, it was because you're the person
sitting in front of me!
**[15:11] Nako**
Ah, yeah. As I said, that was a shock.
**[15:13] Nako**
You know, forget about it.
**[15:16] Nako**
Still, making friends with everyone, huh?
**[15:19] Nako**
Are you going to be okay?
**[15:21] Bocchi**
I don't know.
**[15:22] Bocchi**
But I'll try.
**[15:23] Nako**
*Oh?*
**[15:24] Nako**
*She's stopped being so polite.*
**[15:26] Nako**
Yeah, let's try.
**[15:28] Bocchi**
Yes, I'll try!
**[15:30] Nako**
No, don't go back to being polite!
**[15:33] Nako**
But that's a strange promise
for this Kai-chan girl to make.
**[15:37] Bocchi**
Promise...
**[15:38] (Flashback) Kai**
Bocchi, when you become a landlord,
let me live there!
***SIGN*** Bo
***SIGN*** Ka
**[15:42] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[15:43] Nako**
Hey, what's with that promise?
**[15:46] Bocchi**
Huh?
***SIGN*** Mitsuboshi Bakery
**[15:48] Nako**
Do you have any leads?
**[15:50] Nako**
Any other girls who are likely
to become your friends?
**[15:53] Bocchi**
Well...
**[15:54] Nako**
You were trying not to think about that?
**[15:56] Bocchi**
Oh, but maybe that girl
who spoke to me today would...
**[16:02] Bocchi**
There's no way she would.
**[16:04] Nako**
Go to her!
**[16:06] Students**
Good morning.
**[16:07] Bocchi**
Nako-chan, good morning!
**[16:10] Nako**
Morning, Bocchi.
**[16:12] Bocchi**
*I'm able to greet her normally now!*
**[16:15] Nako**
Are you mentally prepared
to speak to others?
**[16:20] Nako**
Don't barf! Don't barf!
**[16:22] Nako**
Man, I'm surprised you managed
to speak to me that first day.
**[16:27] Bocchi**
That was because you spoke to me first.
**[16:30] Bocchi**
You said, "What, Barf?"
**[16:32] Nako**
You were happy about that?
**[16:35] Nako**
So, um, who's this girl
that spoke to you today?
**[16:38] Bocchi**
Honshou-san.
**[16:39] Bocchi**
She helped me when I was
trying to make up with you.
**[16:42] Bocchi**
She was so nice.
**[16:44] Nako**
Oh, you mean the girl
whose smile seems fake.
**[16:47] Aru**
Oh-ho?
**[16:49] Aru**
Do I hear someone talking about me?
**[16:52] Nako**
There she is!
**[16:54] Aru**
I'm glad you made up with Sunao-san.
**[16:58] Bocchi**
Th-Tha, tha...
**[17:00] Bocchi**
Thanks, my dude!
**[17:01] Bocchi**
"Thanks, my dude"?
**[17:04] Aru**
Are you a jock now?
**[17:06] Nako**
*Why?*
**[17:07] Bocchi**
N-No, I was just...
**[17:08] Nako**
*Why is there a hanger on her?*
**[17:11] Bocchi**
I'm sorry!
**[17:12] Aru**
It's fine.
**[17:13] Nako**
Um...
**[17:15] Aru**
What?
**[17:16] Nako**
There's a hanger on you.
**[17:18] Aru**
Huh?
**[17:19] Aru**
Ah!
**[17:22] Aru**
I-I was in a rush this morning, and—
**[17:24] Aru**
No, I wasn't! I would never be late.
**[17:26] Aru**
I always give myself plenty of time.
**[17:27] Aru**
So, um...
**[17:28] Aru**
Yeah, this is...
**[17:32] Aru**
for fashion.
**[17:33] Aru**
Yes, for fashion!
**[17:38] Bocchi**
A-Amazing!
**[17:40] Aru**
Safe...
**[17:41] Nako**
No, no, no.
**[17:44] Nako**
It seemed like you were forcing that smile.
**[17:47] Nako**
I get it. You're actually
an unfortunate girl.
**[17:51] Bocchi**
U-Unfortunate?
**[17:53] Nako**
For example, the kind of girl who would forget
to put on underwear when she's in a rush.
**[18:01] Aru**
Ah.
**[18:03] Nako**
You're kidding, right?
**[18:03] Aru**
These are my mother's...
**[18:05] Nako**
You're kidding, right?!
**[18:07] Aru**
Of course! My mother and I got
a matching set of underwear.
**[18:11] Nako**
No, that's still unfortunate.
**[18:14] Aru**
It's not.
**[18:15] Aru**
It's a custom in my grandfather's family.
**[18:18] Nako**
That's still unfortunate.
**[18:19] Aru**
There's a saying, isn't there?
A mother's underwear is...
**[18:22] Nako**
So unfortunate.
**[18:27] Aru**
Why?
**[18:28] Aru**
How?
**[18:29] Aru**
How did you figure it out?
**[18:31] Aru**
I'm stupid.
**[18:33] Aru**
I'm stupid!
**[18:36] Homuran**
Ow!
**[18:38] Aru**
Oh, please do forgive me.
**[18:43] Bocchi**
Nako-chan, what do we do?
**[18:45] Bocchi**
Do you think we made Honshou-san mad?
**[18:47] Nako**
Oh, right.
**[18:48] Nako**
I guess I went too far.
**[18:50] Nako**
Sorry.
**[18:51] Nako**
I was worried she might
be more malicious, so I just...
**[18:54] Nako**
I mean, you seem easy to deceive, Bocchi.
**[18:59] Nako**
But it seems that she's not a bad person.
**[19:07] Bocchi**
U-Um!
**[19:09] Aru**
What? Here to ridicule me?
**[19:12] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[19:13] Aru**
That's right.
**[19:14] Aru**
Ever since I was born,
I've been called an unfortunate girl.
**[19:19] Aru**
So I nominated myself to be class president
**[19:22] ---**
in hope of a change,
now that I'm in middle school.
**[19:25] Aru**
But in the end...
***SIGN*** Vice President
**[19:28] Aru**
I'm just vice president.
**[19:30] Nako**
*That's oddly unfortunate, too.*
**[19:32] Nako**
*And why's she on the horizontal bar?*
**[19:35] Aru**
You two were just talking
about me, weren't you?
**[19:37] Aru**
About how I'm so unfortunate.
**[19:39] Nako**
No, we were...
**[19:40] Bocchi**
Y-You're wrong!
**[19:41] Bocchi**
I was talking about
how I want to be friends with you!
**[19:45] Aru**
I don't believe it.
**[19:46] Aru**
With me, the unfortunate hanger girl?
**[19:49] Bocchi**
Y-You're not unfortunate, Honshou-san!
**[19:55] Bocchi**
I was able to make up
with Nako-chan thanks to you!
**[19:59] Bocchi**
Besides, you're so nice...
**[20:02] Bocchi**
and cute.
**[20:03] Aru**
"Cute"...
**[20:08] Bocchi**
Help me.
**[20:09] Nako**
Huh?!
**[20:10] Nako**
Huh?!
**[20:12] Nako**
Well, I do think... she's on the cute side.
**[20:15] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[20:16] Aru**
What's with you two?
**[20:18] Aru**
You think cornering
an unfortunate hanger girl like me
**[20:21] Aru**
and saying those kinds of things
is going to make me happy?
**[20:26] Aru**
I-It's not as if I'm happy
to hear that at all!
**[20:33] Bocchi**
She said she's not happy!
**[20:34] Nako**
One more push.
**[20:36] Nako**
Hang in there.
**[20:37] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[20:42] Bocchi**
Would you be our friend?
**[20:45] Aru**
You're saying that because you need
to become friends with everyone, aren't you?
**[20:50] Bocchi**
That's part of it, but...
**[20:52] Bocchi**
Even if that weren't true,
**[20:55] Bocchi**
I'd still want to be your friend, Honshou-san!
**[21:05] Bocchi**
Won't you be my friend?
**[21:10] Aru**
Mm.
**[21:12] Bocchi**
She said she won't!
**[21:14] Aru**
No, I was giving you a "yes"!
**[21:16] Aru**
I meant I will be your friend!
**[21:19] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[21:27] Aru**
Um, thank you, Hitori-san.
**[21:32] Bocchi**
Honshou-san.
**[21:38] Nako**
Whoa.
**[21:39] Aru**
Huh?!
**[21:40] Nako**
She passes out when she gets too happy.
**[21:42] Nako**
Could you help me hold her up?
**[21:45] Aru**
Before that, there's something
I need to say to you, Sunao-san.
**[21:49] Nako**
Oh, here.
**[21:50] Nako**
Your bag.
**[21:53] Aru**
Thank you.
**[21:54] Nako**
So, what is it?
**[22:00] Aru**
I have...
**[22:05] Aru**
a name!
**[22:06] Aru**
A name!
**[22:08] Aru**
A name!
**[22:10] Nako**
Whoa, that's a lot of pride!
**[22:12] Nako**
For someone so unfortunate!
**[22:13] Aru**
Don't call me unfortunate!
**[22:15] Nako**
So unfortunate.
**[22:15] Aru**
Don't say it!
**[22:16] Nako**
Unfortunate.
**[22:17] Aru**
Don't say it!
**[22:18] Nako**
Unfortunate.
**[22:19] Aru**
Don't say it!
**[22:19] Bocchi**
I'm so glad.

**[00:16] Peko**
Morning, Teru-chan.
**[00:18] Teruyo**
I said to call me "Sensei"!
**[00:28] Girl**
I'll be first!
**[00:28] Girl**
Wait up!
**[00:32] Nako**
Are you okay?
**[00:34] Nako**
Be careful.
**[00:35] Girl**
Oh, a delinquent.
**[00:37] Nako**
Huh?
**[00:38] Girl**
Oh, a delinquent.
**[00:39] Both**
Wow, a delinquent, a delinquent!
**[00:41] Nako**
Uh, hey...
**[00:46] Nako**
Oh.
**[00:46] ---**
Gulp!
**[00:49] Teruyo**
G-Good morning, Sunao-san!
**[00:52] Nako**
Huh?
**[00:52] Nako**
Oh, good morning, Sensei.
**[00:55] Teruyo**
"S-Sensei"?!
**[00:57] Teruyo**
No! "Sensei" sounds arrogant!
**[01:01] Teruyo**
Y-You can just... call me "Oshie."
**[01:04] Nako**
Huh?!
**[01:05] Nako**
That's not okay, though.
**[01:08] Teruyo**
I'm sorry!
**[01:09] Teruyo**
I'm sowwy!

**[02:55] Nako**
I don't see anything that weird.
**[02:58] Nako**
Hey, Bocchi?
**[02:59] Bocchi**
I want to leave school with Honshou-san.
**[03:01] Bocchi**
I want to leave school with Honshou-san.
**[03:03] Bocchi**
I want to leave school with Honshou-san.
**[03:04] Bocchi**
I want to leave school with Honshou-san.
**[03:06] Bocchi**
I want to leave school with Honshou-san.
**[03:08] Nako**
Hey.
**[03:09] Bocchi**
Ah, it would be a dream come true
for all three of us to leave school together!
**[03:13] Nako**
Then this isn't the time
to be muttering to yourself, is it?
**[03:17] Bocchi**
Nako-chan?!
**[03:18] Nako**
First, you need to go invite her.
**[03:23] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[03:24] Nako**
You sound confident.
**[03:26] Nako**
We're in trouble, then.
**[03:28] Bocchi**
I'll do my best!
**[03:30] Bocchi**
Okay, I'm going to do it now!
**[03:46] Bocchi**
I'm back.
**[03:47] Nako**
You didn't do anything, did you?
**[03:49] Bocchi**
I mean...
**[03:50] Nako**
Don't get so worked up.
**[03:52] Nako**
You're already friends.
**[03:54] Bocchi**
But what if she hates me?
**[03:57] Bocchi**
The thought of her not being
my friend anymore is...
**[04:00] Nako**
*Oh, the trauma from Kai-chan...*
**[04:04] Nako**
Kai-chan didn't grow to hate you, did she?
**[04:08] Nako**
Come on. Go get her.
**[04:13] Bocchi**
*Honshou-san, let's go home together.*
**[04:15] Bocchi**
*Honshou-san, let's go home together.*
**[04:17] Bocchi**
*Honshou-san, let's go home together.*
**[04:20] Bocchi**
Good. Good.
**[04:28] Bocchi**
Honshou—
**[04:29] Notsugi**
Aru, let me see your notes!
**[04:32] Aru**
Jeez, again?
**[04:34] Aru**
You'll be in trouble if you don't start
taking some of your own.
**[04:42] Nako**
Go on. Go on.
**[04:43] Bocchi**
But there're more people now.
**[04:46] Nako**
Doesn't matter.
**[04:47] Nako**
Keep going.
**[04:49] Bocchi**
Keep going?
**[04:50] Nako**
Go.
**[04:55] Bocchi**
H-Honshou-sa—

**[05:16] Nako**
What are you doing?
**[05:18] Bocchi**
It's just that Honshou-san's incredibly popular.
***SIGN*** I thought we'd always be able to be together once we were friends,
***SIGN*** but I was wrong. Period.
**[05:30] Nako**
Is this the time to take notes?
**[05:32] Nako**
Come on. Follow me.
**[05:34] Bocchi**
Nako-chan, that's—
**[05:36] Nako**
You jerk.
**[05:37] Aru**
Why?!
**[05:40] Aru**
Hitori-san!
**[05:44] Aru**
Go home together?
**[05:46] Bocchi**
Yes.
**[05:48] Aru**
Yeah, sure!
**[05:52] Aru**
So, why did I get chopped?
**[05:58] Nako**
Just because?
**[05:59] Aru**
What do you mean?!
**[06:02] Nako**
You really are a completely
different person in the classroom.
**[06:06] Aru**
I have a name.
**[06:08] Aru**
Though I'm glad.
**[06:09] Aru**
I was wondering why you
weren't saying anything to me.
**[06:13] Bocchi**
You thought so too, Honshou-san?
**[06:16] Aru**
I did.
**[06:18] Aru**
You two are the only ones
who know I'm unfortunate.
**[06:22] Nako**
Yeah, you are unfortunate.
**[06:23] Aru**
Who are you calling unfortunate?!
**[06:25] Nako**
You said it yourself, didn't you?
**[06:29] Aru**
Well, I'll see you again after school,
Hitori-sa— I mean, Bocchi.
**[06:36] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[06:36] Aru**
You don't need to come, though, Nako!
**[06:39] Nako**
I'll be there, unfortunately.
**[06:41] Aru**
Don't say "unfortunate"!
**[06:42] Bocchi**
I'm leaving school with two friends!
**[06:48] Teruyo**
Well, that concludes our day.
**[06:51] Teruyo**
Person on duty, time for goodbyes.
**[06:53] Nako**
Rise.
**[06:59] Nako**
Bow.
**[07:00] Teruyo**
Thank you very much!
**[07:08] Aru**
Well, let's go home!
**[07:10] Nako**
Yeah.
**[07:11] Nako**
But Bocchi...
**[07:13] Nako**
passed out from the excitement
and anticipation.
**[07:15] Aru**
Wake up!
**[07:18] Aru**
So you always pass out when you're happy?
**[07:21] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[07:22] Bocchi**
Lately there have been so many things
that make me pass out,
**[07:24] ---**
so I'm very happy.
**[07:26] Aru**
I don't know whether I should be happy for you,
or concerned about that.
**[07:34] Aru**
Oh, you brought some candy?
**[07:37] Aru**
That's surprising, considering
how diligent you seem.
**[07:39] Bocchi**
Nako-chan's always giving me some.
**[07:41] Aru**
Oh, no wonder.
**[07:44] Aru**
And my share?
**[07:45] Nako**
You're not warning us?
**[07:47] Nako**
I brought only two,
so there's none for you.
**[07:52] Aru**
You did that on purpose.
**[07:53] Aru**
And I have a name!
**[07:55] Nako**
It feels more fitting this way.
**[07:57] Aru**
Shut up, you fake delinquent!
**[07:59] Nako**
What do you mean by "fake delinquent"?!
**[08:06] Bocchi**
You two get along well.
**[08:07] Both**
How?!
**[08:09] Nako**
We don't get along well.
**[08:10] Aru**
That's right. Not at all.
**[08:12] Bocchi**
Huh? You don't get along?
**[08:15] Bocchi**
I...
**[08:16] Bocchi**
I was the only happy one...
**[08:18] Bocchi**
And you two weren't?
**[08:21] Aru**
Uh, hey...
**[08:23] Nako**
Hold on. I mean, we, uh...
**[08:26] Bocchi**
What do I do?
**[08:27] Both**
*What do I do?*
**[08:30] Aru**
W-We're joking.
**[08:31] Aru**
Joking.
**[08:32] Aru**
We actually get along well.
**[08:34] Bocchi**
R-Really?
**[08:36] Nako**
Really, really.
**[08:38] Bocchi**
I'm so glad you were just joking.
**[08:46] Nako**
Aru.
**[08:47] Aru**
Wh-What?
**[08:50] Nako**
You can have it.
**[08:52] Aru**
Nako...
**[08:53] Aru**
Wait. Then you did have one for me!
**[08:57] Nako**
It's true that I brought only two
with me out of habit.
**[09:01] Nako**
So you can have mine.
**[09:03] Aru**
R-Really?
**[09:07] Aru**
Thanks...
**[09:08] Aru**
Sorry for calling you a fake delinquent.
**[09:11] Nako**
It's fine. That's nothing.
**[09:14] Bocchi**
You two are good at joking.
**[09:16] Both**
Because we weren't joking just now.
**[09:20] Nako**
Come on. It's getting late.
**[09:26] Bocchi**
I don't care how late it gets
if I'm together with you two.
**[09:32] Nako**
You know that's not okay, right?
**[09:34] Aru**
Oh, then why don't we go hang out
at Bocchi's house next time?
**[09:38] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[09:39] Nako**
That's not a bad idea.
**[09:42] Bocchi**
Nako-chan and Honshou-san at my house?
**[09:44] Aru**
Also, you can just use
my first name like normal.
**[09:47] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[09:51] Aru**
Bocchi.
**[09:53] Aru**
Now you.
**[09:54] Bocchi**
A-A-A-Aru-cha...
**[09:59] Bocchi**
Aru-chan!
**[10:00] Aru**
Yeah!
**[10:02] Aru**
Huh?
**[10:09] Nako**
You really are unfortunate.
**[10:12] Aru**
I have a name!
**[10:14] Bocchi**
They're both coming to my house!
**[10:24] Bocchi**
They're not coming.
**[10:26] Bocchi**
It's past the time we agreed on,
**[10:28] ---**
but they haven't even contacted me.
**[10:31] Bocchi**
Kai-chan, I'm back to zero friends again.
***SIGN*** Hitori
**[10:42] Bocchi**
S-Sorry to keep you waiting!
**[10:44] Nako**
Sure.
**[10:45] Nako**
Wait. What's with that outfit?!
**[10:49] Bocchi**
You didn't give me any notice,
**[10:50] ---**
so I didn't know what to do
if you didn't show.
**[10:53] Nako**
It's barely even a minute
after the time we agreed on, right?
**[10:56] Nako**
So is that your loungewear?
Or your casual clothes?
**[11:00] Bocchi**
Come in. Come in.
**[11:01] Bocchi**
It's better to talk inside.
**[11:03] Nako**
Oh, this jerk's not listening.
**[11:06] Nako**
Oh, well.
**[11:08] Nako**
Pardon me.
**[11:13] Bocchi**
Welcome to my home!
**[11:16] Nako**
Hey, can you hear me?
**[11:19] Bocchi**
Did you get lost?
**[11:21] Nako**
No, I passed by here before
on our way home from school, remember?
**[11:25] Nako**
That aside, Bocchi, don't you think
there's something different about me today?
**[11:29] Bocchi**
My room's on the second floor.
**[11:31] Nako**
She's not listening again!
**[11:33] Nako**
Whatever.
**[11:35] Nako**
So just go up to the second floor?
**[11:37] Bocchi**
Ah, I forgot!
**[11:39] Bocchi**
Go back! Go back!
**[11:40] Nako**
Huh? Huh?
**[11:43] Bocchi**
Welcome to my home!
**[11:46] Bocchi**
Come on inside!
**[11:49] Bocchi**
Also, there's a step there,
so please watch your ste—
**[11:53] Bocchi**
Huh? Where's Aru-chan?
**[11:55] Nako**
You just noticed now?!
**[11:56] Bocchi**
And Nako-chan...
**[11:58] Bocchi**
You're wearing glasses.
**[12:00] Nako**
You're slow.
**[12:01] Bocchi**
You have bad eyesight?
**[12:04] Nako**
They're fake glasses.
**[12:05] Nako**
I wanted to try to look good.
**[12:07] Bocchi**
Then is Aru-chan off buying glasses, too?
**[12:09] Nako**
No, Aru got called in for tennis
practice at the last minute,
**[12:13] ---**
so she can't make it.
**[12:16] Bocchi**
I see.
**[12:17] Aru**
*Why did it have to be today of all days?!*
***SIGN*** Bo
**[12:22] Bocchi**
This is my room!
**[12:25] Bocchi**
Come in. Come in.
**[12:27] Nako**
Wow, it's surprisingly normal.
***SIGN*** Do-Your-Best Fairy
**[12:30] Nako**
Or not...
**[12:33] Bocchi**
Would you prefer coffee or tea?
**[12:36] Nako**
Huh?
**[12:36] Nako**
Tea, I guess.
**[12:38] Nako**
Oh, right, I bought some pudding for us.
**[12:41] Bocchi**
Pudding?!
**[12:42] Nako**
You don't like it?
**[12:44] Bocchi**
Actually, I prepared some
pudding for us as well.
**[12:47] Nako**
Oh.
**[12:48] Bocchi**
I know!
**[12:49] Bocchi**
I'll go make mine
into fried pudding right now!
**[12:52] Bocchi**
Please take this cushion and wait for me!
**[12:54] Nako**
Oh!
**[12:56] Nako**
What is this?
**[13:02] Nako**
I can't relax.
**[13:05] Nako**
Good grief, she really didn't need
to panic so much.
**[13:09] Bocchi**
We're all out of teacups.
**[13:12] Nako**
You broke them, didn't you?
**[13:18] Nako**
It's not going to change how it tastes.
**[13:23] Nako**
It's good.
**[13:24] Bocchi**
Really?
**[13:25] Nako**
Yeah.
**[13:26] Nako**
So you should calm down and sit, too.
**[13:29] Bocchi**
Sure.
**[13:32] Nako**
So, is that your casual outfit?
**[13:35] Bocchi**
It's my serious outfit!
**[13:36] Bocchi**
I'm pumped up for today!
**[13:41] Nako**
Next time, let's go shopping for clothes.
**[13:43] Nako**
In our uniforms.
**[13:44] Bocchi**
Yeah! I wonder whether Aru-chan
will come with us, too!
**[13:47] Nako**
Probably not.
**[13:48] Nako**
She is in the tennis club, after all.
**[13:51] Nako**
I hope we don't have a repeat
of today, but...
**[13:57] Nako**
Yeah, it's good.
**[14:00] Nako**
What's that?
***SIGN*** Script
**[14:01] Bocchi**
Well, we have a lot to do today, so...
**[14:04] Nako**
A script?
**[14:05] Nako**
You made one of those again?
**[14:08] Nako**
You sure love that stuff.
**[14:09] Bocchi**
Uh, next is...
**[14:11] Bocchi**
Oh!
**[14:12] Bocchi**
It says you'll finish drinking your tea.
**[14:14] Nako**
Huh?
**[14:14] Bocchi**
And then I'll ask if you'd like another.
**[14:15] Nako**
Hold on a moment!
**[14:20] Bocchi**
Would you like another?
**[14:22] Nako**
S-Sure, one more please.
**[14:27] Bocchi**
Hosting, hosting...
**[14:31] Nako**
Bocchi, tissues!
**[14:32] Bocchi**
R-Right!
**[14:34] Bocchi**
Here!
**[14:35] Nako**
That's pudding!
**[14:38] Bocchi**
Are you okay?
**[14:40] Nako**
Yeah, I'm totally fine.
**[14:43] Bocchi**
I'm the host.
**[14:44] Bocchi**
I'm the one hosting,
and I caused you trouble.
**[14:47] Bocchi**
I always cause you trouble.
**[14:49] Bocchi**
Spilling tea, causing trouble,
**[14:52] ---**
spilling tea, causing
trouble, spilling tea...
**[14:56] Nako**
You're going hip-hop there.
**[14:59] Bocchi**
And I was hoping to be a good host
and make you happy.
**[15:07] Nako**
Bocchi.
**[15:10] Nako**
You can cause trouble for me.
That's fine.
**[15:14] Nako**
So don't cry.
**[15:17] Nako**
Promise?
**[15:29] Nako**
Hey, what's wrong?!
**[15:34] Nako**
You have a terrible fever.
**[15:36] Nako**
You need to get rest today.
**[15:38] Nako**
I'll go on home, okay?
**[15:39] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[15:40] Nako**
Come on. Lie down.
**[15:44] Bocchi**
No.
**[15:45] Bocchi**
No!
**[15:47] Nako**
You promised not to cry, right?
**[15:52] Bocchi**
No!
**[15:53] Nako**
You don't need to do that.
**[15:55] Aru**
Huh? Then she's out with a cold?
**[15:58] Nako**
Yeah.
***SIGN*** Have you forgotten me?
***SIGN*** This is Bocchi.
**[16:04] Nako**
At this rate, she's probably thinking...
**[16:09] (Flashback) Bocchi**
They'll forget me!
**[16:10] (Flashback) Bocchi**
If I don't get better soon,
they'll forget me!
**[16:13] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Nako-chan, Aru-chan...
***SIGN*** New Friend
**[16:17] (Flashback) Nako**
Bocchi, this is my new friend.
**[16:21] (Flashback) Friend**
Nice to meet you.
**[16:23] (Flashback) Friend**
Huh?
**[16:24] (Flashback) Friend**
Are you shy?
**[16:26] (Flashback) Friend**
Don't be like that.
**[16:27] (Flashback) Friend**
Everyone is everyone's friend.
***SIGN*** New Friend
**[16:31] (Flashback) Friend**
Except you.
**[16:36] Nako**
...something like that.
**[16:37] Aru**
There's no way...
***SIGN*** Please don't forget me.
***SIGN*** This is Bocchi.
***SIGN*** The girl who sits in the corner.
***SIGN*** I want to go home with you again.
***SIGN*** We're friends.
**[16:56] Aru**
I could see it.
**[16:57] Nako**
Right?
**[16:58] Aru**
Where are you going?
**[17:00] Nako**
To the teacher.
**[17:01] Nako**
I have Bocchi's homework notebook.
***SIGN*** Teacher's Office
**[17:06] Teruyo**
*I'm in a huge pinch!*
**[17:09] Teruyo**

***SIGN*** Congratulations Sakura Second Middle School Entrance Ceremony

**[17:23] Teruyo**
*But I'm still scared!*
***SIGN*** Resignation
**[17:29] Teruyo**

**[17:32] Nako**
Sensei.
**[17:35] Nako**
Here's the homework notebook from Hitori-san.
**[17:39] Teruyo**
Oh. Oh.
**[17:41] Teruyo**
Th-Thank you very much for delivering it.
**[17:44] Nako**
Sensei?
**[17:45] Teruyo**
It's okay to call me "Oshie"!
**[17:47] Nako**
No, it's not okay!
**[17:49] Nako**
Also, do you happen to have the printouts
I need to bring to Hitori-san?
**[17:53] Teruyo**
Huh? Oh.
**[18:00] Teruyo**
Thank you very much.
**[18:02] Nako**
No, it's...
**[18:05] Teruyo**
Pardon me.
**[18:06] Nako**
Huh? Hey—
**[18:10] Nako**
Sensei.
**[18:12] Teruyo**
D-Did I do something?
**[18:15] Nako**
No, that's not it.
**[18:17] Teruyo**
I'm sorry!
**[18:18] Teruyo**
I can't deal with scary people!
**[18:20] Teruyo**
I can't!
**[18:22] Nako**
Huh? H-Hey!
**[18:24] Teruyo**
I'm scared!
**[18:26] Nako**
I-I'm not...
**[18:28] Nako**
I'm not scary!
**[18:31] Nako**
Aru,
**[18:32] Nako**
do I look that scary?
**[18:38] Aru**
Shall we go deliver these
to Bocchi after school?
**[18:41] Nako**
You're ignoring me?
**[18:43] Aru**
You give off way too strong
of a "Don't talk to me!" aura.
**[18:47] Aru**
On top of that, you have a sharp tone
and a sour look on your face.
**[18:50] Aru**
You should take some lessons
from my pretty smile.
**[18:54] Nako**
I'm not sure I want to follow the example
of a secretly unfortunate person like you.
***SIGN*** I'm not unfortunate!!
**[19:00] Nako**
What's that?
**[19:02] Aru**
I can't retort strong enough right here,
so I wrote it down.
**[19:04] Aru**
V! V!
**[19:05] Nako**
Idiot.
**[19:07] Aru**
Well, it's true you're not scary.
**[19:09] Aru**
After getting to know you, I learned
you're actually quite caring and kind.
**[19:18] Aru**
I-It's not as if I'm saying you're kind
or anything, though, okay?
**[19:21] Nako**
No, you just said that.
***SIGN*** I'm not unfortunate!!
**[19:27] Nako**
Don't pull it out early.
**[19:29] Nako**
A "Don't talk to me!" aura, huh...
**[19:31] Aru**
What?
**[19:33] Nako**
Oh, I was just thinking that Bocchi
still spoke to me despite that.
**[19:37] Aru**
Even after you rejected her once, right?
**[19:40] Nako**
Yeah.
**[19:42] Aru**
Mine!
**[19:44] Aru**
I'm not giving it back!
**[19:51] Nako**
It's fine.
**[19:52] Nako**
I started bringing three today.
**[19:57] Aru**
There.
**[19:59] Nako**
Huh?
**[20:00] Aru**
At moments like that,
you should smile instead of frown.
**[20:07] Aru**
Like this.
**[20:08] Aru**
Like this.
**[20:11] Nako**
That looks so fake.
***SIGN*** It's a pleasure to meet you.
***SIGN*** My name is Hitori Bocchi.
***SIGN*** My favorite food is rice with natto.
***SIGN*** I prefer my natto finely crushed. I'm the type who saves
the mustard that comes with it, so it's not wasted.
**[20:35] Aru**
Is she seriously ill?
**[20:37] Nako**
No, I think she's just over-thinking things
in her fever and going crazy.
***SIGN*** Hitori
**[20:43] Aru**
This is Bocchi's house?
**[20:45] Nako**
Yeah.
**[20:46] Nako**
Oh, that reminds me.
What about the tennis club?
**[20:49] Aru**
It's fine.
**[20:51] Aru**
It's not as though I even like tennis, anyway.
**[20:53] Nako**
You really are unfortunate.
**[20:55] Aru**
Don't call me unfortunate,
and use my name!
**[20:58] Nako**
You put those together?!
**[20:59] Nako**
Wait, if you shout like that,
then Bocchi will...
**[21:04] Nako**
See? You woke her.
**[21:05] Aru**
So predictable!
**[21:07] Bocchi**
Nako-chan! Aru-chan!
**[21:09] Nako**
Hey.
**[21:10] Aru**
Good aft—
**[21:11] Bocchi**
It's me, Hitori Bocchi!
**[21:21] Bocchi**
Do you recognize me?!
**[21:23] Aru**
What?
**[21:24] Nako**
Her serious outfit...
**[21:25] Bocchi**
It's me! Hitori Bocchi!
**[21:29] Bocchi**
Nako-chan, Aru-chan, I'm your friend!
**[21:32] Nako**
It's our first time meeting, isn't it?
**[21:39] Aru**
Don't bully her.
**[21:42] Nako**
Seems like you're already feeling better.
**[21:45] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[21:45] Aru**
That's good.
**[21:46] Aru**
Here you go. The printouts from school.
**[21:49] Bocchi**
Thank you.
**[21:50] Nako**
Well, we'll be waiting for you
at school tomorrow.
**[21:53] Nako**
It's boring without you, Bocchi.
**[21:56] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[22:09] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[22:10] Aru**
I was still there, you know.
**[22:12] Aru**
Oh, I guess I'm boring, huh?
**[22:15] Nako**
You are unfortunate, yeah.
**[22:17] Aru**
Don't call me unfortunate!

*If I recall, she's...*

*Sotoka Rakita-san!*
**[04:15] Bocchi**
*She's sparkling!*
**[04:18] Sotoka**
I've been looking for you for so long.
**[04:20] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[04:21] Sotoka**
Normally you hide your presence,
**[04:24] Sotoka**
but sometimes you move very nimbly.
**[04:26] Sotoka**
You can't fool my eyes.
**[04:29] Sotoka**
Yes, you are...
**[04:31] Bocchi**
I am...?
**[04:35] Sotoka**
A ninja!
**[04:36] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[04:38] Sotoka**
A ninja!
**[04:42] Bocchi**
No.
**[04:44] Bocchi**
No.
**[04:49] Bocchi**
S-Sorry.
**[04:52] Bocchi**
Sorry.
**[04:54] Bocchi**
* I wonder whether that was mean of me,*
* after she made the effort to talk to me.*
**[04:58] Bocchi**
*But I'm not a ninja.*
**[05:01] Bocchi**
Oh.
**[05:03] Bocchi**
Nako-chan, Aru-chan!
**[05:06] Bocchi**
Ah, I'm sorry!
**[05:10] Bocchi**
*I had the wrong people.*
**[05:12] Bocchi**
*But I'm doing incredibly well today!*
**[05:15] Bocchi**
*I've talked a lot.*
**[05:18] Bocchi**
*Nako-chan...*
**[05:21] Bocchi**
Nako-chan!
**[05:22] Bocchi**
*No!*
**[05:23] Bocchi**
*I need to be sure I know who it is first!*
**[05:25] Bocchi**
*I'll go by them and then turn around.*
**[05:28] Nako**
Ow!
**[05:35] Nako**
Bocchi.
**[05:36] Bocchi**
Nako-chan...
**[05:38] Bocchi**
Thank goodness, it's you.
**[05:41] Aru**
Hey, what are you two doing this early?
**[05:45] Nako**
Dunno.
**[05:47] Nako**
Wait. What are you so happy about?!
**[05:53] Nako**
Greetings?
**[05:54] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[05:54] Bocchi**
I managed to actually greet my neighbors.
**[05:57] Bocchi**
And that's not all today.
**[06:00] Bocchi**
I actually spoke to the person
sitting next to me...
**[06:11] Sotoka**
You're not a ninja.
**[06:17] Aru**
Ninja?
**[06:19] Aru**
What?
**[06:19] Nako**
We're talking about you
being unfortunate, right?
**[06:22] Aru**
Don't call me unfortunate!
**[06:24] Bocchi**
Um...
**[06:28] Aru**
Whoa, when did you?!
**[06:29] Nako**
Weren't you smiling until just now?
**[06:32] Bocchi**
Nako-chan, Aru-chan...
**[06:35] Bocchi**
There's something I need your advice on.
**[06:40] Aru**
What kind of person is Sotoka-chan?
**[06:42] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[06:44] Nako**
She sits next to you,
**[06:45] Nako**
so you've at least spoken to her, right?
**[06:48] Bocchi**
No.
**[06:49] Nako**
I see.
**[06:51] Aru**
Speaking of Sotoka-chan,
**[06:52] Aru**
I hear she's drawn a lot of attention
outside our class as well
**[06:55] ---**
for her blonde hair, blue
eyes, and great figure, but...
**[06:59] Bocchi**
But?
**[07:00] Aru**
Well, because she stands out so much,
**[07:03] ---**
she hasn't gotten close to anyone.
**[07:05] Aru**
I also heard that since she immigrated
to Japan on her own,
**[07:08] Aru**
she doesn't have any friends
from elementary school, either.
**[07:12] Bocchi**
She's by herself?
**[07:14] Nako**
You know a lot.
**[07:16] Aru**
I am the class vice president!
**[07:19] Aru**
So, what did she say to you?
**[07:22] Bocchi**
Ninja.
**[07:25] Both**
"Ninja"?
**[07:26] Student**
No way, not Sotoka-chan?
**[07:29] Student**
That's right.
**[07:30] Student**
It seems that she's completely lost her glow.
**[07:33] Student**
Even though she's so beautiful
and has such good figure?
**[07:36] Student**
Yeah.
**[07:37] Student**
She doesn't seem well.
**[07:40] Bocchi**
It's my fault.
***SIGN*** Ninja
**[08:06] Sotoka**
You're not a ninja, right?
**[08:10] Sotoka**
Is that true?
**[08:12] Bocchi**
Yeah, yeah.
**[08:19] Bocchi**
Wh-Why are you so into ninjas?
**[08:21] Sotoka**
I came to Japan for ninjas,
**[08:23] Sotoka**
and I thought I had I finally met one.
***SIGN*** School Store
**[08:34] Aru**
Why don't we eat on the roof for once?
**[08:36] Nako**
The wind's strong there.
**[08:38] Aru**
I'll be fine.
**[08:39] Nako**
Because you can't be unfortunate
in the classroom?
**[08:42] Aru**
That's not why.
**[08:44] Nako**
I think it's about time you stopped
pretending to be an honor student, isn't it?
**[08:48] Aru**
That's none of your business.
**[08:55] Nako**
See? The wind's really bad.
**[08:58] Aru**
This breeze feels just perf—
**[09:10] Bocchi**
Nako-chan, Aru-chan!
**[09:13] Bocchi**
I always have a ton of fun
when I'm with you two!
**[09:18] Nako**
Why say that out of the blue?
**[09:20] Bocchi**
When I entered this school,
**[09:23] Bocchi**
I had no friends,
**[09:25] Bocchi**
and I was lonely and scared.
**[09:28] Bocchi**
But after becoming friends
with both of you,
**[09:32] Bocchi**
I've found coming to school to be very fun.
**[09:36] Aru**
That's great.
**[09:39] Bocchi**
I still want to throw up when I think about
becoming friends with everyone in class, but...
**[09:44] Nako**
Forget that for now.
**[09:46] Bocchi**
I imagine Sotoka-san's also lonely
**[09:49] ---**
after coming to Japan by herself
without any friends.
**[09:54] (Flashback) Sotoka**
I've been looking for you for so long.
**[09:58] Bocchi**
I...
**[09:59] Bocchi**
I've been wondering whether there's
something I could do for her.
**[10:04] Nako**
Bocchi.
**[10:05] Bocchi**
I know it's a little impossible for me
to start chatting with others, but...
**[10:08] Nako**
That makes things hard.
**[10:10] Aru**
Who cares, though?
**[10:12] Aru**
I think those feelings are more important.
**[10:15] Nako**
Yeah.
**[10:16] Nako**
Go give it a shot the way you always do.
**[10:19] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[10:20] Aru**
But how's she going to help
without speaking to her?
**[10:23] Bocchi**
Well...
**[10:25] Bocchi**
I actually have a bit of an idea.
**[10:30] Aru**
Origami?
**[10:32] Nako**
What are you doing with that?
**[10:34] Bocchi**
Well,
**[10:35] Bocchi**
I don't know whether this will work.
**[10:38] Aru**
You're good!
**[10:39] Bocchi**
Origami is something fun
you can do even without friends, so...
**[10:45] Bocchi**
Good!
**[10:47] Bocchi**
Now...
**[11:16] Sotoka**
None here.
**[11:17] Nako**
There she is.
**[11:18] Aru**
You need to hurry before break time's over.
**[11:21] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[11:25] Bocchi**
There!
**[11:29] Sotoka**
Ah!
**[11:31] Nako**
Idiot! Why'd you hit her?!
**[11:33] Aru**
You were supposed to miss her!
**[11:39] Sotoka**
Th-This is...
**[11:41] Sotoka**
a shuriken?!
**[11:42] Sotoka**
Wow, it's made from paper!
**[11:44] Sotoka**
Incredible!
**[11:48] Nako**
She's really happy.
**[11:52] Sotoka**
Are you the ones who made this?
**[11:55] Aru**
Yes.
**[11:56] Aru**
This girl bought some origami
at the school store and made it.
**[12:00] Sotoka**
You're...
**[12:04] Aru**
She said you'll learn
how to make one if you open it up.
**[12:09] Sotoka**
Open...
**[12:10] Sotoka**
I see!
**[12:14] Sotoka**
Wow! The two pages become one one shuriken!
**[12:20] Bocchi & Paper**
*I'm not a ninja,*
**[12:22] Bocchi & Paper**
*but will you be my friend?*
**[12:25] Sotoka**
Friend...
**[12:30] Aru**
You heard her.
**[12:32] Sotoka**
I've thought about a lot
after the other day.
**[12:37] Sotoka**
It was my fault for calling out
to you on the street like that.
**[12:41] Sotoka**
That's why you ran away, isn't it?
**[12:44] Nako**
I'm surprised you realized that.
**[12:46] Aru**
That's right.
**[12:47] Aru**
This girl has a bit
of trouble talking to others.
**[12:49] Sotoka**
Because ninjas are secret operatives!
**[12:52] Aru**
Huh?
**[12:54] Sotoka**
A real ninja would never admit
they were one that easily, right?
**[12:58] Bocchi**
*She still thinks I'm a ninja?!*
**[13:00] Nako**
Uh, listen...
**[13:02] Sotoka**
I understand.
**[13:03] Sotoka**
It's supposed to be a secret.
**[13:05] Sotoka**
But after seeing this, I'm certain.
**[13:09] Sotoka**
You really are...
**[13:11] Sotoka**
a ninja, aren't you?
**[13:12] Sotoka**
This is your way
of secretly letting me know, isn't it?
**[13:17] Bocchi**
N-No.
**[13:19] Bocchi**
No.
**[13:21] Sotoka**
I know. I know.
**[13:23] Sotoka**
You can't ever admit it.
**[13:26] Sotoka**
Don't worry. I won't tell anyone.
**[13:29] Sotoka**
I'm so happy.
**[13:31] Sotoka**
I finally found one!
**[13:33] Bocchi**
N-No, I...
**[13:36] Bocchi**
...friend...
**[13:37] Sotoka**
Friend?
**[13:39] Nako**
That's right.
**[13:41] Sotoka**
With me?
**[13:42] Bocchi**
Uh-huh.
**[13:54] Sotoka**
I can't.
**[13:58] Sotoka**
I'll be your apprentice
instead of your friend!
**[14:01] Nako**
Apprentice?
**[14:02] Sotoka**
Yes!
**[14:03] Sotoka**
Please teach me well, Master!
**[14:05] Nako**
Hey, Bocchi's dying.
**[14:08] Aru**
Airheads are scary.
**[14:11] Bocchi**
*And that was how...*
**[14:21] Bocchi**
*I got an apprentice.*
**[14:27] Bocchi**
*Nako-chan, what do I do?*
**[14:30] Nako**
*Don't look at me like that.*
**[14:34] Teruyo**
Okay, that's all for today.
**[14:38] Sotoka**
Master!
**[14:40] Sotoka**
Let's train, Master!
**[14:42] Nako**
She's passed out! She's passed out!
**[14:46] Bocchi**
What am I supposed to do?
**[14:49] Nako**
Ultimately, you still haven't become friends.
**[14:51] Aru**
But it seems that she's
grown attached to you.
**[14:55] Bocchi**
For now, as her master,
I'm studying the art of the ninja, but...
**[14:59] Nako**
You're okay being her master?
**[15:00] Aru**
Oh, then why don't you end her apprenticeship
**[15:04] Aru**
either by disavowing
her or certifying her mastery,
**[15:07] Aru**
and then become friends afterward?
**[15:10] Bocchi**
You're right.
**[15:11] Nako**
That is one option. Just...
**[15:14] Nako**
Disavow her!
**[15:14] Bocchi**
Certify mastery!
**[15:16] Nako**
That one?!
***SIGN*** Introduction to Ninjas
**[15:17] Bocchi**
I need her to achieve mastery quickly,
so we can become friends.
**[15:21] Nako**
You're so dedicated.
**[15:23] Sotoka**
Master!
**[15:25] Sotoka**
I found you!
**[15:27] Sotoka**
You're as good at hiding as ever, Master!
**[15:31] Nako**
Hold on.
**[15:32] Nako**
What are you doing, Nako?!
**[15:35] Aru**
Go on, Sotoka-chan!
**[15:36] Aru**
Defeat Nako-chan!
**[15:38] Nako**
Whose side are you on?
**[15:40] Nako**
Sotoka, come with me for a moment.
**[15:42] Sotoka**
Why?
**[15:45] Nako**
Listen. There's an important need for distance
between master and apprentice.
**[15:50] Sotoka**
Distance?
**[15:54] Bocchi**
They're getting along well.
**[15:56] Aru**
They're just talking.
**[15:58] Nako**
An apprentice doesn't suddenly hug her master.
**[16:01] Nako**
She's your master.
**[16:02] Nako**
Your teacher.
**[16:04] Bocchi**
Talking doesn't amount to getting along well?
**[16:07] Aru**
Not exactly...
**[16:09] Sotoka**
Master.
**[16:10] Sotoka**
You're right.
**[16:12] Sotoka**
Thank you.
**[16:13] Sotoka**
You're nice, Nako.
**[16:15] Bocchi**
Does that mean I don't get along well
with you and Nako-chan?
**[16:19] Aru**
Ah, that's how you took it?
**[16:22] Bocchi**
Nako-chan!
**[16:23] Nako**
What's wrong?!
**[16:24] Nako**
What happened?!
**[16:26] Sotoka**
Master.
**[16:27] Bocchi**
Yes?
**[16:28] Sotoka**
Nako told me.
**[16:30] Sotoka**
My training was lacking.
**[16:33] Sotoka**
I'm sorry.
**[16:34] Bocchi**
I-It's all right.
**[16:36] Bocchi**
Uh...
**[16:37] Aru**
* My image of Sotoka-chan*
* as a sparkling beauty is...*
**[16:41] Nako**
*Hang in there.*
**[16:42] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[16:43] Bocchi**
W-Well, we'll start your training now.
**[16:46] Sotoka**
All right!
**[16:52] Bocchi**
Like this.
**[16:53] Sotoka**
Like this!
**[16:55] Bocchi**
Perfect.
**[16:57] Bocchi**
You've achieved mastery!
**[16:59] Sotoka**
Huh?!
**[16:59] Aru**
So fast?!
**[17:02] Sotoka**
Please teach me more, Master.
**[17:05] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[17:06] Bocchi**
But you've achieved mastery.
**[17:09] Sotoka**
There has to be more!
**[17:11] Bocchi**
Oh, uh...
**[17:13] Bocchi**
Um...
**[17:15] Aru**
That's enough.
**[17:17] Bocchi**
Aru-chan...
**[17:18] Aru**
I'll take over.
**[17:20] Aru**
That's the class vice president's
job when someone's in trouble.
**[17:23] Sotoka**
Wh-What is it?
**[17:24] Aru**
I'll teach you what I know.
**[17:27] Aru**
Which is...
**[17:28] Aru**
to do this, and...
**[17:30] Aru**
Ninja Beam!
**[17:35] Sotoka**
I don't think that's right.
**[17:38] Sotoka**
It's rather unfortunate.
**[17:42] Nako**
Your unfortunate nature was spotted
in two seconds, Aru!
**[17:44] Aru**
Who are you calling unfortunate?!
**[17:47] Sotoka**
Unfortunate?
**[17:49] Aru**
You don't need to do that, Sotoka-chan!
**[17:51] Aru**
Forget what we just did!
**[17:52] Aru**
Yes!
**[17:53] Aru**
Forget It Beam!
**[17:59] Sotoka**
Pfft!
**[17:59] Aru**
Huh?
**[18:03] Sotoka**
You're unfortunate, Aru!
**[18:04] Aru**
Stop it!
**[18:07] Sotoka**
Beam!
**[18:07] Aru**
I-I'm not unfortunate!
**[18:08] Aru**
N-No, that was just—
**[18:10] Bocchi**
There's more!
**[18:12] Sotoka**
Really?!
**[18:14] Bocchi**
Yes.
**[18:15] Bocchi**
Training on how to run.
**[18:18] Bocchi**
Like this.
**[18:19] Sotoka**
Oh!
**[18:21] Sotoka**
Like this?!
**[18:23] Aru**
I'm not going to lose.
**[18:24] Nako**
Running like that is dangerous.
**[18:27] Bocchi**
Now you run.
**[18:28] Sotoka**
Oh! Like this?
**[18:30] Bocchi**
Perfect.
**[18:31] Aru**
I'll get you back!
**[18:37] Nako**
See? I told you!
**[18:40] Aru**
Ow.
**[18:42] Aru**
Are either of you hurt?
**[18:44] Sotoka**
I'm fine.
**[18:46] Sotoka**
Master's...
**[18:48] Sotoka**
Master!
**[18:48] Sotoka**
Your leg is hurt!
**[18:50] Bocchi**
Oh, I'm fine.
**[18:53] Sotoka**
I'll carry you to the nurse's office!
**[18:57] Nako**
Don't lift her up!
**[18:58] Nako**
She's passed out! She's passed out!
**[19:04] Bocchi**
I-I'm heavy, so it's really
all right, Sotoka-san.
**[19:07] Sotoka**
It's okay.
**[19:09] Sotoka**
You're light.
**[19:10] Sotoka**
Besides, I'm your apprentice,
and you're my master.
**[19:14] Bocchi**
But...
**[19:16] Sotoka**
You're a girl, Master.
**[19:18] Sotoka**
It would be sad if you got a scar.
**[19:23] Bocchi**
I'm fine.
**[19:24] Bocchi**
I already have a different scar
on my other leg.
**[19:28] Sotoka**
What?!
**[19:29] Sotoka**
A scar from training, right?
**[19:31] Bocchi**
Why do you love ninjas so much?
**[19:34] Sotoka**
Huh?
**[19:37] Sotoka**
I have to become a ninja, no matter what.
**[19:41] Sotoka**
Besides...
**[19:43] Bocchi**
Besides?
**[19:44] Sotoka**
Don't you think they're cool?
**[19:46] Sotoka**
The way they sneak about
**[19:48] ---**
without ever being noticed or standing
out, and how they prove useful to others.
**[19:52] Bocchi**
Without standing out?
**[19:54] Sotoka**
Yeah.
***SIGN*** Nurse's Office
**[19:57] Sotoka**
I guess the nurse isn't here.
**[20:00] Sotoka**
I'll go look for her in the teacher's office.
**[20:03] Bocchi**
Oh, that's okay...
**[20:10] Aru**
Bocchi, you okay?
**[20:13] Nako**
Where's Sotoka?
**[20:14] Bocchi**
Oh, she went to the teacher's office.
**[20:17] Aru**
I think you should go
with the disavowal route, don't you?
**[20:20] Nako**
You don't have to force yourself
to play along with her, you know.
**[20:22] Bocchi**
Huh? Force myself? I'm not.
**[20:26] Bocchi**
Kai-chan and I always pretended to train.
**[20:30] Bocchi**
That's when I got the scar
on my right leg, too.
**[20:32] Nako**
It's a scar from training?
**[20:34] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[20:36] Bocchi**
Besides, Sotoka-san really cherishes ninjas,
**[20:41] Bocchi**
so when she found me
**[20:43] Bocchi**
and thought she finally found one,
**[20:45] Bocchi**
she had such fun training.
***SIGN*** Introduction to Ninjas

**[20:47] Bocchi**
I still don't know what I can do for her,
**[20:51] Bocchi**
but...
**[20:53] Bocchi**
I want to try to do what I can to help.
**[20:58] Aru**
I see.
**[20:59] Nako**
Well, then why not?
**[21:01] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[21:03] Aru**
Okay.
**[21:03] Aru**
Then...
**[21:05] Aru**
Time for the class vice
president's full power...
**[21:09] Aru**
Give It Your Best Beam!
**[21:12] Nako**
You're the only one
who's gotten hooked on that, you know.
**[21:16] Aru**
I have a name!
**[21:19] Bocchi**
Thank you very much.
**[21:23] Sotoka**
I'm glad I found the teacher.
**[21:25] Bocchi**
Well, then let's train on our way
to the school gate and go home.
**[21:29] Sotoka**
All right!
**[21:31] Bocchi**
We'll practice walking

**[21:33] Sotoka**
Right!
**[21:35] Bocchi**
Now...
**[21:37] Bocchi**
Like this...
**[21:39] Sotoka**
Like this?
**[21:41] Bocchi**
Perfect.
**[21:43] Nako**
What is this?
**[21:45] Bocchi**
Sotoka-san.
**[21:47] Sotoka**
Yes?
**[21:48] Bocchi**
I'll do my best, okay?
**[21:51] Bocchi**
So once I've passed everything on, then...
**[21:57] Sotoka**
Then...?
**[22:03] Bocchi**
Will you be my friend?
**[22:09] Sotoka**
Master...
**[22:12] Sotoka**
Yes! Of course!
**[22:15] Sotoka**
I'll do my best!
**[22:17] Sotoka**
Huh?
**[22:19] Nako**
I told you to stop that!

**[00:06] Aru**
* My name is Honshou Aru.*
* I'm the class vice president.*
**[00:11] Aru**
* Today I realized I was carrying*
* an elementary school backpack,*
**[00:15] Aru**
*instead of the school's designated bag.*
***SIGN*** School Route
**[00:24] Aru**
*Yes, yes, I know I'm unfortunate.*
**[00:28] Aru**
*But I keep that secret from everyone else.*
**[00:30] Aru**
* Right now, I'm thinking up excuses*
* to explain this situation.*
**[00:36] Aru**
*Okay, got one.*
**[00:37] Aru**
* This is the start of another*
* perfect day for me.*
**[00:46] Hanako**
Aru, morning!
**[00:48] Aru**
Oh, Hana-chan, morning!
**[00:50] Hanako**
Wait, why do you have
an elementary school backpack?
**[00:52] Aru**
Oh, this?
**[00:54] Aru**
My cousin made a mess of my bag.
**[00:56] Aru**
Using a normal bag would violate
school rules, you know?
**[01:01] Aru**
So this was my only option left.
**[01:02] Hanako**
I see. You're too responsible, Aru.
**[01:05] Hanako**
What you're doing is weird.
**[01:07] Aru**
Is it?
**[01:11] Aru**
*So easy.*
**[01:13] Hanako**
But it's cute!
**[01:15] Aru**
You're embarrassing me!
**[01:17] Hanako**
It suits you perfectly, though, doesn't it?
**[01:20] Aru**
*As long as I typically remain diligent,*
**[01:21] ---**
* that can explain a few things*
* that are out of place.*
**[01:25] Aru**
*That's what everyone will think.*
**[01:27] Aru**
* But there are at least a few*
* who know my true nature.*
**[01:35] Aru**
*One is...*
**[01:37] Aru**
*Nako!*
**[01:41] Aru**
*She's dangerous!*
***SIGN*** Happens All the Time
**[03:17] Hanako**
But then they suddenly stopped.
**[03:20] Aru**
Y-Yeah?
**[03:22] Hanako**
Hey, are you listening?
**[03:23] Aru**
I-I'm listening. I'm listening.
**[03:27] Aru**
*It's Nako.*
**[03:28] Aru**
*She'll see through me in an instant.*
**[03:30] (Flashback) Nako**
Wow. Did you really mistake an elementary
school backpack for your normal bag?
**[03:34] (Flashback) Nako**
How unfortunate.
**[03:36] (Flashback) Aru**
Who are you calling unfortunate?!
**[03:38] Aru**
That's exactly how it would play out.
**[03:40] Hanako**
So then they were wearing
this really funny outfit...
**[03:44] Aru**
R-Really?
**[03:49] Hanako**
What's the matter?
**[03:50] Aru**
It's nothing. It's nothing.
**[03:53] Aru**
* I want to avoid interacting with her*
* in front of this girl.*
**[03:56] Aru**
*Oh, well...*
**[03:59] Aru**
Ah!
**[04:00] Hanako**
Huh?
**[04:01] Aru**
My leg cramped!
**[04:02] Aru**
My leg's completely cramped!
**[04:05] Hanako**
A-Are you okay?
**[04:06] Aru**
Just let me rest for a moment.
**[04:09] Hanako**
You should stretch it out.
**[04:10] Aru**
I'm fine. I'm fine.
**[04:12] Aru**
I'm fine.
**[04:23] Nako**
Wow. Did you really—
**[04:25] Aru**
If it isn't Nako! Morning!
**[04:28] Nako**
What's with you?
**[04:29] Aru**
I have a name.
**[04:31] Hanako**
Oh, Sunao-san, good morning.
**[04:34] Nako**
G-Good morning.
**[04:36] Hanako**
Well, I'll go on ahead.
**[04:38] Hanako**
Talk to you later!
**[04:41] Nako**
Does that girl think I'm scary, too?
**[04:43] Aru**
Who cares about any of that?!
**[04:46] Aru**
I told you it's taboo
**[04:47] Aru**
to keep up this "unfortunate"
campaign in front of other people!
**[04:53] Aru**
What?!
**[04:54] Nako**
I'm not campaigning to make you unfortunate.
**[04:56] Nako**
That's just your reality.
**[04:57] Nako**
Don't avert your eyes from it.
**[04:59] Aru**
Don't patronize me!
**[05:01] Aru**
Though, you're right.
**[05:03] ---**
At this rate, I'll need to act
even more diligent than usual,
**[05:05] ---**
or I'll start standing out.
**[05:15] Bocchi**
Aru-chan's quite diligent,
**[05:17] ---**
coming to school with an elementary
school backpack, instead of a bag.
**[05:20] Sotoka**
Is that a substitution technique?
**[05:23] Aru**
* The Aru-chan everyone knows*
* is surely the perfect class vice president.*
**[05:26] Aru**
*It's impossible for her to be unfortunate.*
**[05:28] Aru**
*So I'll take more initiative than usual.*
**[05:32] Aru**
*I'll act like the perfect me!*
**[05:35] English Teacher**
Now, would someone read this page?
**[05:38] Aru**
Yes!
**[05:39] Teacher**
Okay, Honshou-san.
**[05:51] Teacher**
Yes, your pronunciation was quite good.
**[05:54] Aru**
*Yes, perfect!*
**[05:56] Teacher**
But what I wanted you to read
was the next page.
**[05:59] Aru**
*God damn it!*
**[06:01] Classic Teacher**
Now, would someone read page 36?
**[06:04] Aru**
Yes!
**[06:06] Classic**
Okay, Honshou-san.
**[06:09] Aru**
With a heavy heart, I count the days
that have passed since,
**[06:13] ---**
and I fear I may hurt my fingers
as it reaches past twenty, then thirty days.
**[06:18] Classic**
Very good. Perfect.
**[06:21] Classic**
However, I wanted you to read the next page.
**[06:25] Aru**
*It pains me so!*

Morning, elementary-schooler!

Oh, hello.

Oh, are you Aru's little sister?
**[07:54] Hanako**
Wow, Aru has a little sister!
**[07:57] Hanako**
You look just like her!
**[08:00] Aru**
Nice to meet you.
**[08:01] Aru**
I'm Honshou Mieru.
**[08:04] Hanako**
Mieru-chan, huh?
**[08:06] Hanako**
I'm Yamada Hanako.
**[08:08] Aru**
It's my pleasure.
**[08:11] Hanako**
You're such a good girl, so well-behaved.
**[08:15] Aru**
*Safe!*
**[08:16] Aru**
*Thank God Hana-chan's so easy to fool.*
**[08:18] Hanako**
Your older sister Aru is very responsible, too.
**[08:21] Aru**
Huh?
**[08:22] Aru**
Oh, well...
**[08:25] Aru**
You're right. Aru is rather perfect.
**[08:29] Hanako**
Well, give Aru my regards.
**[08:32] Aru**
*Thank goodness.*
**[08:34] Aru**
*I see, though.*
**[08:35] Aru**
*I can just pretend to be somebody else.*
**[08:37] Aru**
* Okay, then I'll act like*

I'm Aru's little sister, Honshou Mieru.

There's no way!
**[08:59] Aru**
*Nako!*
**[09:01] Nako**
You, are you serious?
**[09:04] Aru**
Don't take pictures!
**[09:05] Nako**
"I'm Honshou Mieru!"
**[09:10] Aru**
If you keep laughing, I'll hurt you.
**[09:13] Nako**
You already are.
**[09:15] Aru**
Listen. I'm going home to change,
so I'll be late,
**[09:18] ---**
but don't say anything weird.
**[09:20] Aru**
I mean it this time!
**[09:22] Nako**
Don't worry.
**[09:23] Nako**
There's nothing weirder
than you, Honshou Mieru.
**[09:27] Aru**
Don't call me "Mieru"!
**[09:30] Aru**
Damn Nako.
**[09:32] Aru**
But I guess people who know me
would figure it out.
**[09:35] Aru**
I need to be careful.

Huh?
**[09:46] Bocchi**
Oh, Aru-chan.
**[09:48] Aru**
No.
**[09:49] Aru**
I'm Honshou Aru's little sister,
Honshou Mieru!
**[09:56] Sotoka**
Little sister?
**[09:57] Bocchi**
Oh, pardon me.
**[10:00] Bocchi**
Your big sister does a lot for me.
**[10:03] Sotoka**
I'm Sotoka Rakita, Master's apprentice.
**[10:07] Aru**
*They're easily fooled.*
**[10:09] Bocchi**
Y-Your big sister is always kind to me.
**[10:13] Bocchi**
Um, I was really happy when she...
**[10:16] Bocchi**
became my friend.
**[10:21] Bocchi**
E-Excuse me.
**[10:23] Sotoka**
Farewell.
**[10:27] Aru**
Bocchi.
**[10:29] Aru**
Sorry. It's me, Aru.
**[10:32] Bocchi**
Aru-chan.
**[10:33] Sotoka**
The substitution technique again?!
**[10:36] Bocchi**
It's Aru-chan! Good morning!
**[10:39] Aru**
How do you tell people apart, Bocchi?
**[10:42] Sotoka**
Still, why are you...?
**[10:44] Aru**
Sorry.
**[10:45] Aru**
I was embarrassed about others
seeing me as unfortunate
**[10:48] ---**
for wearing an elementary school uniform.
**[10:50] Bocchi**
No, I'm happy, since it's as if I got
to meet the elementary school you.
**[10:56] Bocchi**
I wish we had gone
to the same elementary school.
**[11:02] Aru**
Jeez.
**[11:03] Sotoka**
Oh! Me, too!
**[11:09] Bocchi**
Are you really sure about this?
**[11:11] Aru**
It's fine. It's fine.
**[11:13] Aru**
I have a feeling it'll work out.
**[11:15] Bocchi**
Aru-chan.
**[11:16] Aru**
Besides, who do you think I am?
**[11:19] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[11:20] Aru**
The world's class vice president!
**[11:27] Aru**
Okay, here we go.
**[11:31] Aru**
Good morning!
**[11:32] Aru**
I'm Honshou Aru's little sister, Mieru!
**[11:40] Aru**
Just kidding.
**[11:41] Hanako**
Aru, what's that about?
**[11:43] Ito**
What's up with that outfit?
**[11:46] Aru**
U-Uh...
**[11:52] Aru**
Damn Nako!
**[11:55] Hanako**
Sunao-san burst out into laughter.
**[11:57] Ito**
I've never seen her laugh before.
**[12:00] Nosaki**
You're incredible, Aru-chan!
**[12:02] Nosaki**
Getting Sunao-san to burst out
laughing like that!
**[12:04] Hanako**
You're so brave to do all that for a gag!
**[12:06] Aru**
Huh?
**[12:10] Aru**
Oh, well...
**[12:21] Aru**
The moment has finally come.
**[12:24] Aru**
Today, I'm going to make you cry "uncle."
**[12:28] Aru**
I challenge you, Nako!
**[12:30] Aru**
In tennis!
***SIGN*** Tennis Club
***SIGN*** Going Home Club
**[12:35] Nako**
*This is unfair.*
**[12:37] Bocchi**
Who do you think will win?
**[12:39] Sotoka**
I've heard Nako isn't good at sports.
**[12:41] Sotoka**
Besides, Aru is a member
of the tennis club, right?
**[12:44] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[12:45] Bocchi**
Then you think Aru-chan will win?
**[12:48] Sotoka**
Yes.
**[12:49] Sotoka**
Aru's being unfair.
**[12:51] Aru**
Shut up!
**[12:52] Aru**
Listen?
**[12:52] Aru**
When you lose the match,
**[12:54] ---**
you're going to promise me you won't laugh
at my misfortune in front of others,
**[12:57] ---**
or tease me, or do anything to ruin my image
as a perfect class vice president!
**[13:03] Nako**
You have an image
as a perfect class vice president?
**[13:06] Aru**
I do!
**[13:07] Aru**
I'm the class vice president!
**[13:08] Aru**
I have to do well in school,
be friendly, and be reliable!
**[13:13] Nako**
Well, I don't care if you feel that way,
**[13:15] Nako**
but what happens if I win?
**[13:18] Aru**
Huh?
**[13:19] Aru**
W-Well...
**[13:21] Aru**
That's not going to happen,
so don't worry about it.
**[13:24] Aru**
The first to score ten points wins.
**[13:26] Aru**
We'll swap after each serve. Okay?
**[13:28] Nako**
Sure, sure.
**[13:29] Sotoka**
Still, why do you think Nako accepted this
challenge when she's at a disadvantage?
**[13:33] Bocchi**
I know Nako-chan doesn't like moving a lot.
**[13:37] Nako**
* For some reason, I think*
* I can beat Aru on these terms.*
**[13:41] Nako**
*Then once I win, I'll tell her wholeheartedly*
**[13:46] Nako**
*that she's unfortunate!*
**[13:51] Aru**
I'll give you first serve.
**[13:53] Aru**
That gives you the advantage.
**[13:55] Aru**
It's a handicap, a handicap.
**[13:57] Nako**
Is that so?
**[13:59] Nako**
*I guess I'll try this.*
**[14:01] Nako**
L-Look, what's that?!
**[14:03] Aru**
Huh?
**[14:04] Both**
Huh?
**[14:07] Nako**
* She's unfortunate,*
* falling for that trick nowadays!*
**[14:10] Nako**
*Though everyone else fell for it, too!*
**[14:12] Nako**
*She's mine!*
**[14:18] Aru**
Hey, I don't see anything.
**[14:20] Bocchi**
What is it?
**[14:21] Sotoka**
I don't know.
**[14:22] Aru**
Hey, what did you think you saw?
**[14:24] Aru**
There was nothing th—
**[14:25] Aru**
Ow! Ah! No fair!
**[14:27] Aru**
You served while I wasn't looking!
**[14:30] Nako**
Yeah.
**[14:30] Aru**
No fair! Cheater!
**[14:35] Aru**
Whatever.
**[14:36] Aru**
You can only use that trick once.
**[14:39] Aru**
Now it's my turn!
**[14:44] Aru**
This is my serve as a tennis club member!
**[14:46] Aru**
Aru-Aru Beam!
**[15:00] Aru**
*Shoot!*
**[15:02] Aru**
*I've been skipping going to club too much.*
**[15:05] Aru**
*They'll make fun of me.*
**[15:06] Aru**
* They'll definitely make fun of me*
* for missing my swing!*
**[15:09] Aru**
*No, no, no, no, no!*
**[15:11] Nako**
It happens all the time.
**[15:13] Nako**
Don't worry about it.
**[15:14] Aru**
*Why is she so nice?!*
**[15:18] Aru**
Normally, a point's awarded
after two missed serves,
**[15:21] ---**
but we can count that as a point for you.
**[15:23] Aru**
It's a handicap, a handicap.
**[15:25] Nako**
I don't get it, but whatever.
**[15:27] Nako**
* Though, do you really have the advantage*
* when you're serving?*
**[15:33] Nako**
*Maybe that's all a lie?*
**[15:35] Nako**
* A strategy to get me*
* to make these difficult serves?*
**[15:38] Nako**
*I see it now.*
**[15:39] Nako**
* It seems you really intend*
* to win this today, Aru.*
**[15:45] Nako**
You can go ahead and keep serving.
**[15:48] Aru**
Huh?
**[15:49] Nako**
This is a serious match.
**[15:51] Nako**
So show me the serve of a real
member of the tennis club!
**[15:54] Nako**
I'll let you keep serving until you do!
**[15:57] Aru**
*Why are you being so nice?!*
**[16:00] Nako**
*Now I've forced it onto her!*
**[16:03] Aru**
*A real tennis-club serve...*
**[16:05] Aru**
* She can tell that I can't do it well*
* after skipping tennis club too much.*
**[16:10] Aru**
* Is she telling me to practice, because*
* it'll get harder to go to club like this?*
**[16:15] Aru**
*Don't show me that kindness!*

**[18:06] Nako**
Hey, hold on.
**[18:07] Nako**
What are you saying?
**[18:08] Aru**
Huh?
**[18:10] Aru**
Didn't you do this all for me?
**[18:12] Nako**
Of course not.
**[18:15] Aru**
Then why did you let me
keep serving?
**[18:18] Nako**
Because I thought I could win
by just standing in place.
**[18:20] Aru**
But why did you agree to a tennis match
when you know I'm in the tennis club?
**[18:24] Nako**
Because I had a feeling I could win.
**[18:27] Sotoka**
Is she saying...
**[18:29] Aru**
This was all my misunderstanding?
**[18:32] Nako**
That's unfortunate for you.
**[18:34] Aru**
Who are you calling unfortunate?!
**[18:38] Nako**
At least you finally landed
your unfortunate serve.
**[18:40] Aru**
I told you not to laugh at me!
**[18:42] Nako**
Well, I didn't lose the match.
**[18:45] Aru**
Th-That's...
**[18:47] Aru**
But isn't it cruel to laugh at me
so hard in the classroom?
**[18:51] Aru**
I always thought you were the type
who wouldn't do that.
**[18:54] Hanako**
Aru really surprised me today.
**[18:58] Ito**
I bet she did that just to make
Sunao-san laugh. Had to be.
**[19:03] Hanako**
That's our class vice president for you.
**[19:04] Ito**
I thought so, too!
**[19:06] Ito**
Aru-chan's so incredible!
**[19:10] Aru**
*Did she laugh like that to protect me?*
**[19:17] Aru**
Nako.
**[19:19] Nako**
Mieru.
**[19:20] Aru**
*No, no, no, that can't be!*
**[19:22] Aru**
*She just ticks me off!*
**[19:26] Bocchi**
Ah!
**[19:26] Sotoka**
Is there danger, Master?!
**[19:28] Bocchi**
That reminds me.
I ran into Aru-chan's little sister.
**[19:31] Aru**
No, I told you that was me all along!
**[19:34] Bocchi**
Her name was...
**[19:35] Nako**
Honshou Mieru.
**[19:37] Aru**
My name's not Mieru!
***SIGN*** The Next Day

**[19:45] Aru**
Oh, sorry.
**[19:46] Aru**
Today, I'm helping out
the beautification committee,
**[19:49] Aru**
and afterward I have club,
so you can go home without me.
**[19:51] Bocchi**
I see.
**[19:52] Bocchi**
Okay.
**[19:54] Aru**
I'm really sorry.
**[19:55] Aru**
Next time, okay?
**[19:57] Bocchi**
Work hard.
**[19:58] Aru**
Thanks!
**[20:00] Nako**
Today, too?
**[20:01] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[20:02] Nako**
Is she still aiming to be her
perfect self or whatever?
**[20:06] Bocchi**
I don't know, but...
**[20:08] Sotoka**
Master! Let's train!
**[20:11] Sotoka**
Master?
**[20:12] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[20:12] Bocchi**
Oh, yeah.

**[20:18] Nosaki**
Sorry for making you help us, Aru-chan.
**[20:21] Aru**
It's fine. It's fine.
**[20:23] Aru**
I just need to pull out the weeds
in this area, right?
**[20:25] Aru**
*Just another push to be the perfect me.*
**[20:28] Aru**
*It's exhausting to be on guard all day long,*
**[20:31] Aru**
* but I'll overcome these*
* trials and grow from them!*
**[20:37] Nosaki**
Incredible!
**[20:39] Aru**
I'm beat.
**[20:41] Aru**
But I still have to go to club.
**[20:44] Aru**
Don't lose, Aru!
**[20:46] Aru**
Shine, Aru!
**[20:48] Aru**
Aru-Aru on top of an aluminum can!
**[20:52] Aru**
Reliable Aru!
**[20:54] Aru**
Perfect Aru!
**[20:58] Aru**
Wh-Wh-What are you all doing here?
**[21:00] Bocchi**
Aru-chan.
**[21:01] Nako**
What was that song about?
**[21:03] Sotoka**
Master said to wait for you.
**[21:05] Aru**
But I told you I still have club.
**[21:08] Bocchi**
We didn't get much chance to talk today,
**[21:11] Bocchi**
so we were waiting
until you finished with club.
**[21:13] Sotoka**
Time went by fast while we were training.
**[21:15] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[21:19] Aru**
Fine, then. I'll skip club!
**[21:22] Bocchi**
Huh? But...
**[21:23] Aru**
Let's all go home together.
**[21:25] Aru**
I'll go get changed.
**[21:28] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[21:32] Bocchi**
Like this!
**[21:33] Sotoka**
Like this?
**[21:34] Bocchi**
Next is like this!
**[21:36] Sotoka**
Like this?
**[21:37] Nako**
Are you really sure about this?
**[21:39] Aru**
It's fine.
**[21:40] Aru**
Skipping today won't ruin my perfect image.
**[21:45] Nako**
Well, you can do whatever you like.
**[21:48] Nako**
But...
**[21:49] Nako**
I don't think you need to be perfect.
**[21:54] Nako**
In fact, I think Bocchi might like
unfortunate Aru more.
**[21:58] Nako**
I don't hate it, either.
**[22:00] Aru**
Wha?!
**[22:00] Bocchi**
Nako-chan! Aru-chan!
**[22:04] Nako**
Let's go.
**[22:08] Aru**
It's not like I'm happy to hear that!
**[22:10] Bocchi**
Aru-chan!
**[22:12] Aru**
I'm coming!

**[00:07] Bocchi**
Come to me, fever!
**[00:13] Bocchi**
*I want to skip school tomorrow!*
**[00:17] (Flashback) Teruyo**
Well, for our next class, we'll have each of you
stand up here and present a haiku.
**[00:23] Bocchi**
*Eh?!*
**[00:25] Bocchi**
I'm not getting a fever.
**[00:27] Bocchi**
I can't skip school.
**[00:30] Bocchi**
And if I can't skip, then...
**[00:33] Bocchi**
I'll have to stand before
everyone and present one.
**[00:40] Bocchi**
I even took a cold shower,
**[00:43] Bocchi**
but that just made me feel warm.
**[00:52] Bocchi**
For now, I should come up with a haiku.
**[00:56] Bocchi**
What should I use for the seasonal word?
**[00:58] Bocchi**
Uh, it's almost summer break.
**[01:02] Bocchi**
I hope I get to go
to a lot of places this year.
**[01:05] Bocchi**
Like the pool, or out camping.
**[01:09] Bocchi**
I like thinking about these things.
**[01:12] Bocchi**
*First semester's ending.*
**[01:14] Bocchi**
* I couldn't even imagine it*
* when I started school,*
**[01:18] Bocchi**
*but I made some friends.*
***SIGN*** First Karaoke With Everyone
**[01:20] Bocchi**
*Maybe I have managed to change.*
**[01:24] Bocchi**
But I can't present that to everyone.
**[01:27] Bocchi**
Absolutely not.
**[01:28] Bocchi**
Never in my life.
**[01:30] Bocchi**
There. I finished my haiku.
**[01:35] Bocchi**
All that's left is to sleep.
**[01:37] Bocchi**
*When I wake up tomorrow,*
**[01:41] Bocchi**
*I pray my throat is sore!*

**[03:32] Bocchi**
Okay.
**[03:37] ---**
Yeah.
**[03:39] Bocchi**
It's all good.
**[03:44] Bocchi**
No.
**[03:46] Bocchi**
I'm going to have to do this.
**[03:48] Bocchi**
But Mom gave me a good plan.
**[03:51] Bocchi**
A way to avoid getting nervous
in front of everyone...
**[03:54] Bocchi**
That way is...
**[03:58] Bocchi**
Nako-chan.
**[03:59] Bocchi**
Nako-chan.
**[04:01] Bocchi**
Nako-chan.
**[04:03] Nako**
Oh, Bocchi. Morning.
**[04:05] Bocchi**
Nako-chan.
**[04:06] Bocchi**
Nako-chan.
**[04:08] Bocchi**
Nako-chan!
**[04:09] Nako**
I hear you!
**[04:12] Bocchi**
We're presenting our haiku today.
**[04:15] Bocchi**
Oh, morning.
**[04:16] Nako**
What, you're already stressed out over that?
**[04:19] Nako**
Did you finish your haiku?
**[04:21] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[04:21] Nako**
Let me see.
**[04:27] Nako**
It took me over an hour to write mine.
**[04:30] Nako**
How about you?
**[04:31] Bocchi**
Three minutes.
**[04:32] Nako**
Three minutes?!
**[04:33] Nako**
You're really good at these sort of things.
**[04:35] Bocchi**
I just tried writing a haiku...
**[04:38] Bocchi**
about how even I made friends.
**[04:41] Nako**
Wow.
**[04:44] Nako**
That's great.
**[04:47] Bocchi**
Nako-chan, you're so kind.
**[04:50] Bocchi**
You're always kind.
**[04:52] Nako**
Huh? What? What's wrong?
**[04:54] Bocchi**
If only everyone on Earth were like you.
**[04:57] Nako**
Huh? What's this all of a sudden?
**[04:59] Bocchi**
If only everyone on Earth were like you!
**[05:03] Nako**
No! That would be creepy!

Well, let's start presenting the haiku
you were assigned as homework.
**[06:02] Bocchi**
*The moment's finally here.*
**[06:05] Bocchi**
* It's time to use the secret plan*
* Mom told me about.*
**[06:17] Sotoka**
Master, what is that...?
**[06:20] Bocchi**
My secret plan!
**[06:21] Sotoka**
A secret plan?!
**[06:24] Sotoka**
I'll do it, too!
**[06:29] Nako**
What's wrong? Calm down.
**[06:31] Bocchi**
My mother said I should move around,
since my body tenses up
**[06:35] ---**
when I'm nervous and that
causes me to get leg cramps.
**[06:38] Bocchi**
Secret plan, secret plan, secret plan.

*They're watching me.*
**[07:02] Bocchi**
*They're watching—*
**[07:04] Bocchi**
*Ah, my leg cramped.*
**[07:06] Nako**
It cramped?
**[07:07] Bocchi**
*It's all because I moved only my upper half.*
**[07:10] Bocchi**
*My secret plan failed!*
**[07:13] Bocchi**
*But I still have another secret plan.*
**[07:16] Teruyo**

Y-Yeah, I'm okay.

* This is the last secret plan*

**[07:40] Bocchi**
*They're not potatoes!*

*I'm betting someone like Nako*

* told her something useless*
* like pretending everyone's a potato.*

*What?*
**[10:22] Nako**
Damn it.
**[10:25] Nako**

**[10:29] Nako**
Let's have a nice long chat later.
**[10:34] Teruyo**

**[10:42] Teruyo**
*Yeah, I'm dead.*
**[10:47] Bocchi**
Nako-chan?
**[10:51] Bocchi**
Nako-chan?!
**[10:52] Bocchi**
No way, you...
**[10:56] Bocchi**
Nako-chan, did you get...
**[11:01] Bocchi**
a failing grade?
**[11:03] Nako**
Yeah, I'm not really good at studying.
**[11:07] Bocchi**
But you got meat (*niku = 29*)
when you're Nako-chan (*Nako = 75*).
**[11:10] Nako**
"Meat"?
**[11:11] Bocchi**
Well, you're Nako-chan, but instead of 75,
**[11:15] Bocchi**
you got 29.
**[11:16] Nako**
That's a weird thing to be shocked about!
**[11:22] Bocchi**
*When you get a failing grade at my school,*
**[11:26] ---**
* you have to take supplemental classes*
* and a makeup test.*
**[11:29] Bocchi**
* That means you're staying*
* after school every day*
**[11:31] ---**
*until you can earn a passing grade above 70.*
**[11:33] Bocchi**
*Which is why...*
**[11:35] Nako**
Sorry, Bocchi.
**[11:36] Nako**
I have supplemental classes today,
so go on home without me.
**[11:39] Bocchi**
Wha?!
**[11:40] Bocchi**
I can't go home with you?
**[11:46] Bocchi**
I should have made a lot of mistakes, too.
**[11:49] Nako**
*Damn it.*

Master! Let's train again today!

**[12:00] Sotoka**
Hm?
**[12:01] Sotoka**
Hm?
**[12:03] Sotoka**
Oh! You're Nako (*Nako = 75*),
but you got meat (*niku = 29*)!
**[12:06] Nako**
Why are you focused on that?!
**[12:08] Nako**
Besides, math is useless.
**[12:11] Nako**
Studying areas can be left to
those who garden as a hobby.
**[12:16] Sotoka**
Ah, it's not like you
to say something like that!
**[12:19] Nako**
It doesn't matter.
Just go home by yourself for a while.
**[12:22] Nako**
I'll tell you when I get over 70.
**[12:26] Aru**
I heard you failed?

Why, you!

I-I...
**[12:55] Both**
Hm?
**[12:56] Bocchi**
I'll teach you how to have fun studying!
**[12:58] Nako**
Have fun?
**[12:59] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[13:00] Bocchi**
B-Bocchi's School of Laughs is now open!
**[13:04] Nako**
*That sounds really bad.*
**[13:11] Teruyo**
I can't believe I can't
treat everyone fairly.
**[13:14] Teruyo**
I'm a failure as a teacher.
**[13:17] Teruyo**
No, no!
**[13:19] Teruyo**
I need to face every student equally!
**[13:22] Teruyo**
Then, come graduation...

Sensei!
**[13:31] Teruyo**

**[13:33] Nako**
I'm glad I was in your class, Sensei.
**[13:36] Teruyo**
Suna-chan.
**[13:39] Teruyo**
I want her to say that.
**[13:43] Teruyo**
* First, I need to learn what Sunao-san*
* likes and what her interests are.*
**[13:47] Teruyo**
* I'm sure I'll learn something*
* surprising there.*
**[13:53] Bocchi**
First, we start by reviewing.
**[13:55] Nako**
Yeah.
**[13:59] Bocchi**
We start with the first problem.
**[14:01] Bocchi**
What is the answer?
**[14:02] Nako**
Huh? Give me a hint.
**[14:04] Nako**
A funny hint.
**[14:05] Bocchi**
Huh? A funny hint?
**[14:07] Bocchi**
Huh? Uh...
**[14:09] Bocchi**
Uh...
**[14:10] Bocchi**
Uh...
**[14:12] Bocchi**
Comes after three.
**[14:17] Nako**
Then, four?
**[14:19] Bocchi**
Correct!
**[14:20] Nako**
Come on, now.
**[14:23] Teruyo**
* I wonder how Hitori-san managed*
* to get along with Sunao-san.*
**[14:31] Sotoka**
Sensei?
**[14:34] Teruyo**
Shuriken?
**[14:35] Sotoka**
Master showed me how to make these shuriken.
**[14:40] Teruyo**
Master?
**[14:42] Bocchi**
Sotoka-san?
**[14:43] Nako**
Is someone there?
**[14:46] Sotoka**
Yes, the teacher... huh?
**[14:50] Teruyo**
*Is her "Master" Hitori-san?*
**[14:53] Teruyo**
*Hitori-san gets along with Sunao-san,*
**[14:55] Teruyo**
* and she has Rakita-san,*
* a foreigner, calling her "Master"?*
**[14:59] Teruyo**
*That's...*
**[15:00] Teruyo**
*That's...*
**[15:03] Teruyo**
*She's totally the secret gang leader!*
**[15:06] Nako**
I can't.
**[15:08] Bocchi**
Nako-chan...
**[15:10] Nako**
When I don't want to do something,
I just can't get into it.
**[15:14] Nako**
I'm a bad person.
**[15:16] Bocchi**
No way.
**[15:17] Bocchi**
Wh-What do I do?
**[15:19] Nako**
Could you make me laugh?
**[15:20] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[15:22] Nako**
I can't laugh anymore.
**[15:24] Nako**
So could you make me laugh?
You can try anything.
**[15:27] Bocchi**
Anything at all?
**[15:29] Nako**
Yeah.
**[15:34] Nako**
Not my sides!
**[15:35] Nako**
Not my sides!
**[15:39] Nako**
You sound like a villain, Bocchi!
**[15:42] Teruyo**
*The secret gang leader...*
**[15:47] Bocchi**
Well, Nako-chan...
**[15:48] Bocchi**
I'll be going home.
**[15:50] Nako**
I won't be able to join you going home
for a little while. That's all.
**[15:53] Bocchi**
But!
**[15:55] Nako**
Just try going up to Aru.
**[15:57] Nako**
She might agree to skip club again
and go home with you, you know.
**[16:02] Bocchi**
Nako-chan.
**[16:06] Bocchi**
I made notes for your
supplemental classes during class.
**[16:09] Bocchi**
I don't know whether they'll be useful, though.
**[16:11] Nako**
O-Oh. That's a lot of effort.
**[16:14] Nako**
As usual.
**[16:15] Bocchi**
Later...
**[16:16] Nako**
Thanks.
**[16:19] Bocchi**
Oh, I forgot.
**[16:21] Nako**
Is there something else?
**[16:25] Nako**
* Bocchi's School of Laughs...*
* just made me sadder.*
**[16:31] Bocchi**
Oh, Sensei.
**[16:34] Teruyo**
H-Hitori-san?!
**[16:36] Bocchi**
Right. Um...
**[16:41] Bocchi**
The haiku...
**[16:42] Bocchi**
I'm sorry I couldn't read it properly in class!
**[16:45] Teruyo**
Huh?
**[16:47] Bocchi**
I said it!
**[16:48] Sotoka**
Good for you, Master.
**[16:50] Teruyo**
Huh?!
**[16:52] Teruyo**
* She's the secret gang leader,*
* but she's not scary.*
**[16:55] Teruyo**
*What a strange child.*
**[16:57] Bocchi**
Well, pardon me.
**[16:59] Teruyo**
Hitori-san?
**[17:02] Teruyo**
Hitori-san, you get along
with Sunao-san... right?
**[17:05] Bocchi**
Y-Yes. We're friends.
**[17:09] Teruyo**
Friends...
**[17:11] Teruyo**
*By which she means her underling, then.*
**[17:13] Bocchi**
I want to become friends
with everyone in class!
**[17:18] Teruyo**
*You're kidding me!*
**[17:21] Teruyo**
*Why would she need that many underlings?*
**[17:24] Teruyo**
*Is she carrying some incredible burden?!*
**[17:27] Teruyo**
* Now that I think about it, Hitori-san*
* always seems troubled about something.*
**[17:32] Teruyo**
Hitori-san.
**[17:33] Bocchi**
Y-Yes?!
**[17:35] Teruyo**
I can never...
**[17:37] Teruyo**
be your friend.
**[17:44] Teruyo**
I'm your teacher, after all.
**[17:46] Teruyo**
And there are things
only your teacher can do.
**[17:49] Bocchi**
Sensei...
**[17:51] Teruyo**
So you can rely on me.
**[17:53] Teruyo**
I'll support you, Hitori-san!
**[17:57] Bocchi**
*What a nice teacher!*
**[18:00] Bocchi**
All right!
**[18:01] Teruyo**
Good.
**[18:06] Teruyo**
* I managed to say it to Hitori-san,*
* the secret gang leader.*
**[18:09] Teruyo**
*I can do this!*
**[18:10] Teruyo**
*Right now, I have this!*
**[18:12] Teruyo**
*I'm sure Sunao-san will also...*
**[18:16] Teruyo**
*I'm sure!*
**[18:19] Nako**
Farewell.
**[18:21] Teruyo**
Thank you for staying!
**[18:24] Aru**
So you really had fun
teaching Nako how to study?
**[18:28] Sotoka**
Yes! That's Master for you!
**[18:30] Bocchi**
I don't know that it went well, though.
**[18:33] Aru**
If it didn't work out,
then we can just go take down Nako.
**[18:39] Aru**
What? Was I that funny?
**[18:50] Sotoka**
Master...
**[18:51] Aru**
Bocchi...
**[18:53] Bocchi**
I...
**[18:54] Bocchi**
I've been going home with Nako-chan
ever since I started school here.
**[18:58] Bocchi**
But today, for the first time...
**[19:02] Bocchi**
Nako-chan isn't here.
**[19:08] Bocchi**
I'm going to wait for Nako-chan after all.
**[19:11] Aru**
I figured you would.
**[19:13] Bocchi**
But I want to go home with everyone,
**[19:15] Bocchi**
so I'll go back after we go home.
**[19:18] Bocchi**
So I'll still go home now.
**[19:20] Aru**
Huh?
**[19:20] Aru**
What? That's so complicated.
**[19:22] Aru**
Besides, won't her supplemental
classes end while you're doing that?
**[19:25] Bocchi**
Oh, yeah.
**[19:26] Bocchi**
What do I do, then?
**[19:28] Sotoka**
Let's go back to school.
**[19:29] Sotoka**
Then we can all go home together.
**[19:33] Bocchi**
You're sure?
**[19:34] Sotoka**
I don't mind.
**[19:36] Aru**
Oh, fine.
**[19:38] Aru**
Well, I thought this might happen.

Nako-chan!

**[21:43] Bocchi**
No, this is a song.
**[21:45] Sotoka**
A song?
**[21:46] Bocchi**
Yes. The school song
for Bocchi's School of Laughs!

**[00:12] Bocchi**
Where am I?
**[00:16] Bocchi**
Do-Your-Best Fairy?
**[00:32] Bocchi**
Kai-chan.
**[00:33] Kai**
Bocchi, congratulations on graduating.
**[00:37] Kai**
You remember our promise, right?
**[00:39] Kai**
We can't be friends until you become
friends with everyone in your class.
**[00:43] Kai**
You tried your best, Bocchi.
**[00:46] Kai**
But...
**[00:49] Kai**
What a shame. We're not friends.
**[00:52] Kai**
Farewell.
**[00:55] Bocchi**
Kai-chan!

Kai-chan!
**[01:04] Bocchi**
*Today is July 19th.*
**[01:07] Bocchi**
* Summer break starts tomorrow,*
* but now I have a dilemma.*
**[01:12] Bocchi**
At this pace, that dream will come true.
**[01:15] Bocchi**
* In the summer of my first*
* year in middle school,*
**[01:18] Bocchi**
*I, Hitori Bocchi, have come to realize...*
**[01:21] Bocchi**
The world is cruel.
***SIGN*** Gentle Tears
**[03:01] Bocchi**
* I need to make at least*
* one more friend today.*
**[03:07] Bocchi**
*I practiced greeting others with a smile.*
**[03:10] Bocchi**
Good morning.
**[03:19] Bocchi**
*All communication starts with a greeting.*
**[03:21] Bocchi**
*A bright greeting.*
**[03:23] Bocchi**
*Bright...*
**[03:24] Bocchi**
*Nako-chan, Aru-chan, Sotoka-san...*
**[03:27] Bocchi**
*Remember the first time you spoke with them.*
**[03:31] (Flashback) Nako**
What is it, Barf?
**[03:33] (Flashback) Aru**
Hitori-san?
**[03:35] (Flashback) Sotoka**
What went well?
**[03:37] Bocchi**
*I didn't speak to any of them first!*
**[03:45] Bocchi**
*That one is Aru-chan's friend.*
**[03:48] Bocchi**
*Yamada-san!*
***SIGN*** Yamada Hanako (Tennis Club)
**[03:52] Bocchi**
*Now! A bright greeting.*
**[03:55] Bocchi**
*All communication starts with a greeting.*
**[03:57] Bocchi**
*The time is now!*
**[04:18] Bocchi**
*I still ended up running away.*
**[04:23] Nako**
*What is she doing?*
**[04:25] Bocchi**
It's so cold and comforting.
**[04:29] Nako**
*I'll just leave her be.*
**[04:32] Bocchi**
* It really is impossible for me*
* to speak to someone!*
**[04:34] Bocchi**
*But...*
**[04:35] Bocchi**
*I had a feeling this would happen,*
**[04:37] Bocchi**
* so I thought up some ways to manage*
* without being the first to speak!*
**[04:41] Bocchi**
*Yeah.*
**[04:42] Bocchi**
*It's finally time for this.*
**[04:44] Bocchi**
*It's finally time to undo my bow tie!*
**[04:49] Bocchi**
*I always have a backup plan.*
**[04:51] Bocchi**
*That's a sign of growth.*
**[04:54] Bocchi**
*Now...*

**[04:58] Bocchi**

**[05:04] Kako**
Huh? Hitori-san?
**[05:06] Bocchi**
Y-Yes?!
**[05:07] Kako**
Where's your bow?
**[05:08] Bocchi**
Oh, I forgot it.
**[05:12] Kako**
I see.
**[05:13] Kako**
Then use this.
**[05:15] Kako**
It's my spare.
**[05:17] Bocchi**
Thank you.
**[05:18] Bocchi**
I'll wash it and return it to you.
**[05:20] Kako**
That'll be next semester, though.
**[05:23] Bocchi**
Right...
**[05:24] Kako**
Oh, well.
**[05:27] Kako**
Let's meet up during summer break, then.
**[05:31] Bocchi**
*It'll go like that!*
**[05:32] Bocchi**
*Okay!*
**[05:37] Kako**
Huh? Hitori-san?
**[05:39] Bocchi**
Y-Yes?!
**[05:41] Kako**
What's with your sloppy attire?
**[05:43] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[05:45] Kako**
I hope you're not getting carried away
just because summer break's almost here.
**[05:48] Bocchi**
I-I, I...
**[05:50] Kako**
I won't permit any of that, you hear?
**[05:53] Bocchi**
I, I-I, I-I...
**[06:00] Nako**
Again?!
**[06:02] Teruyo**
Now, everyone, please enjoy
a healthy summer break.
**[06:06] Kako**
Rise.
**[06:08] Bocchi**
* Nothing else happened after that,*
* and now closing ceremonies are over, too.*
**[06:11] Kako**
Bow.
**[06:15] Bocchi**
I couldn't do anything.
**[06:18] Nako**
Bocchi, let's go home.
**[06:19] Sotoka**
Master, it's summer break!
**[06:22] Aru**
Where should we go? Where should we go?
**[06:24] Bocchi**
* There are so many things I wanted*
* to ask my precious friends, too.*
**[06:30] Sotoka**
Master?
**[06:31] Aru**
Are you that happy?
**[06:35] Aru**
Is training progressing well?
**[06:36] Sotoka**
Do you want to see my real skills?!
**[06:40] Sotoka**
Then let's have a race!
**[06:40] Nako**
Those two are full of energy.
**[06:42] Aru**
Huh? A race?! I won't lose!
**[06:43] Sotoka**
You think you can beat me?
**[06:47] Nako**
Our summer break's just starting,
but you seem down.
**[06:52] Bocchi**
Because I can't let myself get carried away.
**[06:57] Nako**
Huh?
**[06:58] Bocchi**
I can't let myself...
**[07:02] Bocchi**
This is yummy.
**[07:03] Nako**
You said you liked that flavor a while ago.
**[07:11] Nako**
What is it? Did something happen?
**[07:15] Bocchi**
I had a dream.
**[07:17] Nako**
A dream?
**[07:18] Bocchi**
A dream that I couldn't reunite
with Kai-chan.
**[07:21] Bocchi**
So I need to make more friends.
**[07:24] Bocchi**
I need to become friends with everyone.
**[07:26] Bocchi**
I tried hard,
**[07:28] Bocchi**
but it didn't work.
**[07:30] Nako**
I see.
**[07:32] Bocchi**
I actually wanted to ask everyone today
**[07:34] Bocchi**
whether they'd still hang
out with me over break.
**[07:41] Bocchi**
But I shouldn't be thinking
about playing around right now.
**[07:51] Sotoka**
Master!
**[07:53] Sotoka**
Play with me!
**[07:55] Nako**
Speak of the devil!
**[07:56] Sotoka**
I'll play with you, Master!
**[07:59] Aru**
Hey!
**[08:01] Aru**
You better not be thinking of leaving me out!
**[08:04] Aru**
Let's hang out, Bocchi.
**[08:05] Aru**
We can go to the beach,
the pool, and festivals!
**[08:07] Bocchi**
Aru-chan...
**[08:08] Sotoka**
We can watch the falling leaves,
go snowboarding, and go flower viewing!
**[08:11] Nako**
None of those are summer things.
**[08:12] Aru**
If you go to all kinds of places
and hang out a lot,
**[08:15] Aru**
you should become a little less shy.
**[08:18] Aru**
Then you can make lots of new friends
when second semester starts, right?
**[08:23] Sotoka**
I'll be with you, too.
**[08:24] Bocchi**
You guys...
**[08:27] Nako**
Yeah.
**[08:31] Bocchi**
Then we can all do
the radio exercises together?
**[08:34] Nako**
Getting up early is...
**[08:36] Sotoka**
Yeah!
**[08:37] Sotoka**
Let's have a sleepover at my house!
**[08:39] Aru**
That sounds great!
**[08:41] Aru**
Oh, I don't have club activities during
the Bon Festival, so let's do it during Bon!
**[08:45] Sotoka**
Sure.
**[08:46] Bocchi**
Huh? Bon?
**[08:48] Nako**
What's the matter?
**[08:49] Bocchi**
I visit my grandfather during
the Bon Festival every year.
**[08:53] Bocchi**
So I won't be able to go.
**[08:56] Sotoka**
Oh, Master!
**[08:58] Aru**
It was just an idea, an idea.
**[09:00] Nako**
That's right.
**[09:01] Nako**
Aru'll skip club anyway,
so we can do it anytime.
**[09:04] Aru**
Don't assume I will!
**[09:08] Bocchi**
Our summer break is starting.
***SIGN*** Hitori
**[09:24] Nako**
Bocchi?
**[09:28] Nako**
What? You should've said something
if you don't have a swimsuit.
**[09:31] Nako**
Wearing your school swimsuit's...
**[09:33] Sotoka**
Master! We match!
***SIGN*** Rakita
**[09:36] Nako**
You too, Sotoka?!
**[09:39] Aru**
Sorry about the wait.
**[09:42] Aru**
Tada!
**[09:45] Nako**
You overdid it.
**[09:47] Aru**
I have a name!
**[09:48] Bocchi**
Look, it's the pool! The pool!
**[09:51] Sotoka**
It is a pool.
**[09:53] Bocchi**
Nako-chan! The pool, the pool!
**[09:58] Nako**
Yeah, it's the pool.
**[10:01] Aru**
Okay, everyone!
**[10:02] Aru**
Let's stretch before we swim.
**[10:08] Aru**
Warm-up stretches!
**[10:10] Aru**
Okay, one, two, three, four,
**[10:13] Sotoka**
Oh! I can use this is in my ninja training!
**[10:13] Aru**
five, six, seven, eight.
**[10:16] Sotoka**
One, two, three, four.
**[10:22] Aru**
Sotoka-chan.
**[10:24] Aru**
Please don't stand next to me.
**[10:26] Sotoka**
Why not?
**[10:27] Aru**
Just because!
**[10:28] Bocchi**
I want to go in already!
**[10:30] Nako**
You're acting suspicious again.
**[10:33] Sotoka**
Is this new training?!
**[10:35] Nako**
You're standing out. You're standing out.
**[10:39] Bocchi**
It's finally time for the pool!
**[10:41] Nako**
Wait.
**[10:44] Nako**
Don't forget the sunblock.
**[10:45] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[10:49] Bocchi**
I want to go in already!
**[10:51] Bocchi**
I'll put it on, okay?
**[10:52] Nako**
Yeah.
**[10:56] Nako**
Stop it!
**[10:57] Aru**
What are they doing?
**[11:01] Aru**
She's acting suspicious over there, too.
**[11:07] Sotoka**
I can do this!
**[11:08] Sotoka**
With what I felt just now, I'm certain!
**[11:11] Aru**
What are you planning to do?
**[11:13] Sotoka**
Ninja Art: Running on Water!
**[11:15] Sotoka**
It's time to demonstrate
the fruits of my training!
**[11:18] Aru**
That's impossible.
**[11:19] Sotoka**
You can decide whether it's
impossible after you see this!
**[11:28] Aru**
No way!
**[11:35] Aru**
See?
**[11:36] Bocchi**
Ah, I thought we'd all go
in the water together.
**[11:40] Bocchi**
Nako-chan, let's go.
**[11:41] Nako**
I-I'll pass.
**[11:43] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[11:44] Nako**
I'll watch you all in the pool.
**[11:47] Nako**
Do you not like the pool?
**[11:51] Nako**
Uh, well...
**[11:52] Bocchi**
I see.
**[11:53] Bocchi**
It's because you don't like moving much.
**[11:56] Nako**
No, no.
**[11:57] Nako**
And stop assuming I never want to move.
**[12:02] Aru**
You can't run on top of water.
**[12:04] Sotoka**
No! I just haven't trained enough!
**[12:07] Nako**
Keep this a secret from Aru and Sotoka, okay?
**[12:09] Bocchi**
Okay.
**[12:11] Nako**
I'm scared of the water.
**[12:14] Nako**
I can't swim.
**[12:15] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[12:16] Bocchi**
Nako-chan...
**[12:17] Bocchi**
Then let's go home!
**[12:19] Nako**
You're overreacting!
**[12:20] Bocchi**
But...
**[12:22] Nako**
Well...
**[12:24] Nako**
Okay!
**[12:26] Nako**
I'll get in the pool.
**[12:28] Nako**
So Bocchi, could you teach me how to swim?
**[12:31] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[12:34] Nako**
I'm sure I must have drowned in my past life.
**[12:38] Bocchi**
You know what your past life was, Nako-chan?
**[12:41] Nako**
No, I'm just joking.
**[12:44] Bocchi**
Okay.
**[12:47] Bocchi**
You made it in.
**[12:49] Nako**
Y-Yeah.
**[12:53] Nako**
Why are you so happy?
**[12:56] Bocchi**
I'm happy it's the first time
I'm being helpful to you.
**[13:01] Bocchi**
Okay, let's begin.
**[13:02] Bocchi**
First, do this.
**[13:05] Nako**
I wouldn't have a hard time
if I could do that.
**[13:09] Bocchi**
Then let's start by floating.
**[13:11] Bocchi**
Just relax and your body will float.
**[13:13] Nako**
Really?
**[13:15] Bocchi**
Hold on here, and give it a try.
**[13:17] Nako**
O-Okay.
**[13:27] Nako**
I can't.
**[13:29] Nako**
When I put my face under,
my body tenses up.
**[13:37] Nako**
This is the worst.
**[13:38] Aru**
What, what, what?
**[13:39] Aru**
Can you not swim?
**[13:42] Aru**
Ah, today's the day
I get one over on Nako!
**[13:44] Aru**
Prepare yourself!
**[13:46] Aru**
I'm going to make you regret
calling me unfortunate!
**[13:49] Aru**
Oh, but if you're willing to call me
"Super Class Vice President Aru-sama,"
**[13:53] Aru**
then I might just let you off the hook!
**[13:55] Aru**
Super Class Vice President, Aru-sa—
**[14:07] Nako**
Bocchi, let's continue.
**[14:09] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[14:10] Sotoka**
Continue? Continue what?
**[14:12] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[14:13] Bocchi**
Oh, swimming practice—I mean!
**[14:16] Bocchi**
That's not right.
**[14:17] Bocchi**
U-Uh...
**[14:19] Nako**
You don't need to keep it secret anymore.
**[14:24] Bocchi**
You're floating. You're floating.
**[14:25] Bocchi**
Now put your face under.
**[14:30] Bocchi**
Awesome, awesome!
**[14:31] Bocchi**
Way to go, Nako-chan!
**[14:33] Nako**
It's just a little bit, though.
**[14:35] Sotoka**
Master's teaching you how to swim.
**[14:37] Sotoka**
That means you're also
Master's apprentice for today.
**[14:40] Nako**
I guess so.
**[14:45] Sotoka**
Let's do it together as fellow apprentices!
**[14:49] Nako**
Can you teach the next step then, Master?
**[14:52] Bocchi**
Sure!
**[14:54] Bocchi**
Uh, once you can float, flutter your legs.
You have to flutter them like this!
**[14:59] Bocchi**
Uh, like this!
**[15:01] Sotoka**
Like this?
**[15:03] Bocchi**
Perfect!
**[15:05] Nako**
*She's bad at teaching people.*
**[15:09] Aru**
There's not really any room
to tease her anymore.
**[15:13] Aru**
Oh well.
**[15:14] Aru**
Hey, let me join, too!
**[15:18] Nako**
No one was excluding you.
**[15:20] Nako**
Good grief, you're unfortunate.
**[15:23] Aru**
Who are you calling unfortunate
when you can't swim?!
**[15:26] Nako**
Hey, stop that!
**[15:27] Sotoka**
You got me, too!
**[15:29] Aru**
Of course you're going to get wet. It's a pool!
**[15:34] Bocchi**
Friends...
**[15:37] Nako**
What's up?
**[15:38] Bocchi**
I'm playing with my friends.
**[15:41] Aru**
Of course you are.
***SIGN*** Karaoke
**[15:44] Bocchi**
I can't believe I'm going
to the pool with everyone
**[15:47] Bocchi**
and joining everyone for the first
time at karaoke on top of that.
**[15:52] Bocchi**
I'm so incredibly happy this summer.
**[15:55] Nako**
You don't need to announce it over the mic.
**[15:57] Bocchi**
I was looking forward to this so much
yesterday that I couldn't sleep a wink.
**[16:01] Nako**
You went to the pool without any sleep?!
**[16:03] Aru**
You'll come down with a fever again that way.
**[16:06] Aru**
Let's get some drinks first, for now.
**[16:11] Aru**
Pick out whichever you like.
**[16:13] Sotoka**
Oh! A drink bar!
**[16:15] Bocchi**
That's a cool way to say it, Sotoka-san!
**[16:17] Sotoka**
Huh? I-It's cool, Master?
**[16:20] Bocchi**
It's cool!
**[16:22] Sotoka**
Drink bar!
**[16:23] Bocchi**
Jrink var!
**[16:24] Sotoka**
Drink bar!
**[16:25] Bocchi**
Jrink var!
**[16:27] Nako**
Hurry up and order.
**[16:30] Bocchi**
Huh? The price for this jrink var is...
**[16:33] Aru**
Hmm? It's free.
**[16:34] Bocchi**
Huh? Free?
**[16:36] Bocchi**
No way...
**[16:37] Bocchi**
I can't believe you can drink juice for free.
**[16:39] Bocchi**
This is my first karaoke parlor,
but they're going to go under if they do that.
**[16:44] Nako**
Most places are like that, though.
**[16:46] Bocchi**
I'll just have water.
**[16:48] Nako**
It's fine, though.
**[16:54] Aru**
Okay, let's start.
**[16:56] Aru**
Leading off is the one making
her karaoke debut today, Bocchi!
**[16:59] Aru**
Give it a shot!
**[17:00] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[17:02] Aru**
What do you want to sing?
**[17:04] Bocchi**
*Right. You're supposed to sing at karaoke.*
**[17:08] Bocchi**
*In front of others...*
**[17:09] Bocchi**
*In front of others...*
**[17:11] Bocchi**
*In front of others...*
**[17:12] Aru**
Bocchi, what kind of songs do you like?
**[17:15] Bocchi**
*In front of others...*
**[17:16] Aru**
Hey, Bocchi?
**[17:17] Bocchi**
*In front of others...*
**[17:19] Bocchi**
*In front of others...*
**[17:19] Aru**
Hey, Bocchi?
**[17:21] Bocchi**
I can't!
**[17:24] Nako**
Hey.
**[17:30] Aru**
I guess it's too challenging
to just jump in into it.
**[17:33] Aru**
Okay, someone else, then.
**[17:34] Nako**
I'm fine just listening.
**[17:37] Sotoka**
I don't know any Japanese songs, myself.
**[17:39] Aru**
Am I the only one singing?
**[17:41] Nako**
I'm great at keeping the beat, though.
**[17:45] Aru**
You make even that sound like a pain, though.
**[17:48] Sotoka**
I memorized the callbacks!
**[17:50] Aru**
Why the callbacks?!
**[17:51] Aru**
Memorize the song instead!
**[17:54] Aru**
Why did all of you come here?
**[17:56] Nako**
Now, now, let's hear Sotoka's callbacks.
**[17:59] Nako**
Sotoka?
**[18:00] Sotoka**
Okay.
**[18:01] Sotoka**
Well...
**[18:04] Sotoka**
**[18:07] ---**
Iya sasa!
**[18:09] Aru**
Why the Okinawan ones?!
**[18:11] Sotoka**
Now you sing along with the callbacks.
**[18:13] Aru**
Huh?!
**[18:14] Nako**
Come on, just go with your thing.
**[18:16] Nako**
Lose, Aru. Don't shine, Aru.
**[18:19] Aru**
Don't lose, Aru! Shine, Aru!
**[18:21] Bocchi**
Oh, that's the song you sang before.
**[18:23] Bocchi**
I want to hear it.
**[18:25] Aru**
Fine, then.
**[18:27] Aru**
J-Just this once, okay?
**[18:30] Aru**
Uh...
**[18:31] ---**
Iya sasa!
**[18:33] Aru**
Already?!
**[18:34] ---**
Iya sasa!
**[18:37] Aru**
Sotoka-chan, you just want
to say that, don't you?
**[18:39] Sotoka**
Hit it out. Hit it out, Aru!
**[18:44] Sotoka**
There's still more I memorized!
**[18:45] Aru**
Huh?!
**[18:49] Nako**
What's the matter?
**[18:51] Bocchi**
Kai-chan.
**[18:52] Bocchi**
Kai-chan!
**[18:58] Bocchi**
Kai-chan!
**[19:05] Kai**
Bo—
**[19:07] Kai**
No, we're not friends now, not friends now.
**[19:10] Bocchi**
Kai-chan...
**[19:11] Nako**
Kai-chan? You mean...
**[19:13] Aru**
That girl?
**[19:15] Bocchi**
Kai-chan,
**[19:17] Bocchi**
do you remember me?
**[19:23] Bocchi**
I've
**[19:24] Bocchi**
made new friends!
**[19:28] Bocchi**
This is Nako-chan.
**[19:30] Bocchi**
And this is Aru-chan.
**[19:31] Nako**
Hello.
**[19:32] Aru**
I'm the world's class vice president!
**[19:34] Bocchi**
And Sotoka-san is my apprentice, but...
**[19:38] Both**
"Apprentice"?
**[19:40] Bocchi**
I'm still a long way from
befriending the whole class,
**[19:43] Bocchi**
but I made some.
**[19:44] Bocchi**
I made some friends!
**[19:47] Ramu**
Why don't you say something to her?
**[19:49] Kai**
It's fine.
**[19:50] Keito**
That's the girl you always say
you're worried about, isn't it?
**[19:54] Keito**
You've already run into each other, so...
**[19:58] Bocchi**
Kai-chan!
**[19:59] Bocchi**
I swear on the Do-Your-Best Fairy!
**[20:03] Bocchi**
I will befriend everyone in my class!
**[20:07] Bocchi**
And then...
**[20:08] Bocchi**
Then...
**[20:09] Bocchi**
We can be friends again!
**[20:28] Nako**
Just keep at it.
**[20:29] Aru**
Don't worry.
**[20:31] Aru**
Knowing you, I'm sure...
**[20:39] Sotoka**
Master...
**[20:46] Kai**
Bocchi...
**[20:48] Ramu**
Are you really sure?
**[20:50] Kai**
I'm so glad.
**[20:51] Keito**
Huh?
**[20:52] Kai**
Bocchi made some friends!
**[20:55] Kai**
She hasn't come to hate me.
**[21:00] Kai**
Bocchi!
**[21:02] Bocchi**
Kai-chan!
**[21:03] Bocchi**
Kai-chan!
**[21:05] Bocchi**
Kai-chan!
**[21:07] Both**
Blegh!
**[21:09] Both**
Why are you barfing?!
**[21:12] Aru**
That was kind of a hectic first time
at karaoke, wasn't it?
**[21:15] Aru**
Bocchi fell asleep, too.
**[21:17] Nako**
Apparently she didn't sleep
a wink last night.
**[21:19] Nako**
Sotoka, you ready to trade off yet?
**[21:24] Sotoka**
Nako, Aru...
**[21:26] Aru**
What?
**[21:27] Sotoka**
Is it impossible to be her friend
while still being her apprentice?
**[21:31] Aru**
You want to be her friend?
**[21:33] Nako**
You're not quitting the apprentice thing?
**[21:37] Sotoka**
I have my reasons for needing
to learn the art of the ninja.
**[21:41] Sotoka**
Family circumstances...
**[21:43] Nako**
What kind of family is that?
**[21:45] Aru**
Well, why don't you try asking
your Master when she wakes up?
**[21:49] Sotoka**
Yeah.
**[21:50] Bocchi**
It was a true dream,
**[21:53] Bocchi**
but it wasn't,
**[21:55] Bocchi**
Do-Your-Best Fairy!
**[21:58] Aru**
What is this Do-Your-Best Fairy?
**[22:00] Nako**
This thing, here.
**[22:02] Nako**
Apparently she swore on this.
**[22:03] Sotoka**
That's Master's master.
**[22:07] Bocchi**
*The world is still cruel.*
**[22:10] Bocchi**
*But...*
**[22:12] Bocchi**
Kai-chan...
**[22:14] Bocchi**
I made some.
**[22:17] Bocchi**
I made some friends.

**[00:33] Sotoka**
I'm heading out.
**[00:41] Girl**
Look! It's Sotoka-san from Class 1.
**[00:43] Girl**
Even from behind, you can feel her glow.
**[00:49] Sotoka**
Would you like one... of these?
***SIGN*** Welcome Back from Elsewhere
**[02:27] Sotoka**
I made a lot of them,
**[02:29] Sotoka**
so there's one for everyone.
**[02:31] Girl**
Thank you!
**[02:32] Girl**
Oh, it's Sotoka-san.
**[02:34] Girl**
What? She's handing out origami?
**[02:36] Girl**
So cute!
**[02:37] Girl**
Incredible! So cute!
**[02:41] Sotoka**
Wow, so many people.
**[02:43] Sotoka**
They're so popular.
**[02:45] Sotoka**
Shuriken are so popular!
**[02:52] Nako**
Hm?
**[02:55] Nako**
Morning, Sotoka.
**[02:57] Nako**
Shuriken again?
**[02:58] Sotoka**
Good morning.
**[02:59] Sotoka**
Would you like one as well, Nako?
**[03:01] Nako**
Huh? Hm...
**[03:04] Nako**
Well, I guess I'll take one.
**[03:07] Sotoka**
You just can't help it.
**[03:09] Sotoka**
I knew shuriken would be popular.
**[03:11] Nako**
What do you mean, you knew?
**[03:13] Sotoka**
Master, would—
**[03:45] Kako**
What?!
**[03:55] Bocchi**
Fr—
**[03:57] Bocchi**
Frien—
**[03:59] Bocchi**
Frien—
**[04:00] Bocchi**
Fr...
**[04:01] Bocchi**
ien—
**[04:03] Sotoka**
Master!
**[04:05] Nako**
Shot down at the start of
the second semester, huh.
**[04:07] Sotoka**
What happened to her?
**[04:09] Nako**
She must've started working to make friends
again, now that second semester's starting.
**[04:14] Sotoka**
Friends...
**[04:16] Nako**
Hey, Bocchi.
**[04:19] Nako**
That's turned really red.
**[04:21] Bocchi**
But...
**[04:23] Nako**
Hoping people will jump straight
to being friends is a high hurdle to overcome,
**[04:28] ---**
so I think that's why things
aren't going well for you.
**[04:31] Bocchi**
High hurdle?
**[04:32] Nako**
Try overcoming a lower hurdle first.
**[04:36] Bocchi**
A lower hurdle...
**[04:39] Bocchi**
I'll join a club.
**[04:40] Bocchi**
The track club.
**[04:41] Nako**
I'm not talking about actual hurdles!
**[04:44] Sotoka**
But Master, why are you trying
to be friends with Kurai-san?
**[04:49] Bocchi**
Well...
**[04:50] Bocchi**
To be honest, Kurai-san lent me
her ribbon back in first semester.
**[04:55] (Flashback) Kako**
Oh, fine. I'll lend this to you, then.
**[04:58] Bocchi**
I thought about returning it to her
during summer break, but I couldn't.
**[05:03] Nako**
So then you should make it your goal
just to talk to Kurai-san today.
**[05:09] Bocchi**
Talk to...?
**[05:10] Nako**
You can give it your best
to accomplish that goal, right?
**[05:13] Bocchi**
Do you think Kurai-san
would join the track team?
**[05:17] Nako**
I think that's impossible.
**[05:23] Nako**
Are you going?
**[05:26] Nako**
Just talk to her first.
**[05:28] Nako**
If anything, you don't even need
to look her in her eyes.
**[05:30] Nako**
Just talk to her, even if
you have to avert your eyes.
**[05:34] Sotoka**
Master! I know you can do it, Master!
**[05:37] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[05:45] Bocchi**
*I can't.*
**[05:46] Bocchi**
*This is going to lead to my leg cramping.*
**[05:49] Bocchi**
*Stretches!*
**[05:53] Bocchi**
*Courage.*
**[05:54] Bocchi**
*Find your courage!*
**[05:55] Bocchi**
*Bring it out! And speak!*
**[05:58] Bocchi**
U-Um!
**[06:01] Bocchi**
I did it.
**[06:06] Kako**
Hitori-san.
**[06:07] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[06:09] Kako**
Are you making fun of me?!
**[06:10] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[06:12] Bocchi**
U-Uh...
**[06:17] Kako**
Hey, hold on a minute!
**[06:23] Kako**
Hold up!
**[06:26] Bocchi**
Oh, right.
**[06:32] Kako**
Hold on.
**[06:33] Kako**
How can you run like that?!
**[06:36] Nako**
She's jumping over the hurdles.
**[06:39] Sotoka**
Impressive! What wonderful ninja arts!
**[06:44] Kako**
I've cornered you now.
**[06:48] Kako**
Now, Hitori-san, you're going to explain
to me what you think you're doing.
**[06:56] Kako**
A ribbon?
**[06:58] Kako**
Were you trying to return this to me?
**[07:03] Kako**
In that case, you should
have just said so sooner.
**[07:07] Kako**
I always thought well of you, since you
always keep your uniform prim and proper.
**[07:12] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[07:13] Bocchi**
*Always?*
**[07:15] Kako**
So I was disappointed
when I saw your ribbon undone.
**[07:19] Bocchi**
*She has been noticing me.*
**[07:21] Bocchi**
*She always has...*
**[07:23] Bocchi**
Th-Thank you very much.
**[07:26] Kako**
I'm not praising you.
**[07:30] Sotoka**
They're talking!
**[07:31] Sotoka**
They're talking to each other!
**[07:32] Nako**
Shh!
**[07:33] Bocchi**
*Say it properly.*
**[07:36] Bocchi**
* Tell her you that you undid*
* your ribbon so you could talk to her.*
**[07:42] Bocchi**
*I can't.*
**[07:44] Bocchi**
* Thinking back, there was*
* always someone else there*
**[07:46] Bocchi**
*when I tried with Aru-chan or Sotoka-san.*
**[07:49] Bocchi**
*That's why I could give it my best.*
**[07:51] Bocchi**
*When I'm on my own, I cry.*
**[07:54] Kako**
Huh? Hey, are you okay?
**[07:58] Sotoka**
Nako?
**[08:01] Nako**
*Calm down.*
**[08:06] Nako**
*She doesn't see me!*
**[08:08] Kako**
What are you doing, Sunao-san?
**[08:11] Nako**
Calm down, Bocchi.
**[08:13] Nako**
It's okay.
**[08:14] Bocchi**
Nako-chan.
**[08:16] Sotoka**
Master!
**[08:17] Bocchi**
Sotoka-san, too?
**[08:18] Nako**
You jumped over a lot of hurdles, didn't you?
**[08:20] Sotoka**
That's right! Ultimate ninja style!
**[08:24] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[08:25] Bocchi**
Um...
**[08:26] Kako**
Huh?
**[08:27] Bocchi**
That day I undid my ribbon on purpose.
**[08:31] Kako**
Huh?!
**[08:32] Bocchi**
I thought maybe you might
notice me if I undid my ribbon.
**[08:37] Kako**
Why would you do that?
**[08:39] Bocchi**
Because I wanted to talk to you!
**[08:42] Kako**
Huh?
**[08:44] Kako**
Huh?!
**[08:47] Bocchi**
S-So will you chat with me
from now on, too?
**[08:54] Kako**
If that's what's going on...
**[08:55] Kako**
I don't mind chatting with you.
**[08:59] Bocchi**
Really?
**[09:00] Kako**
Is that all you wanted to say?
**[09:02] Bocchi**
Then...
**[09:03] Bocchi**
W-Will you join the track club as well?
**[09:06] Kako**
Track club?
**[09:07] Nako**
Forget about that.
**[09:10] Kako**
Let me just say this, okay?
**[09:12] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[09:13] Kako**
For various reasons, it's my
policy not to make any friends.
**[09:17] Kako**
Just don't forget that, okay?
**[09:24] Nako**
That's a strange policy.
**[09:37] Aru**
A policy against making any friends?
**[09:40] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[09:42] Aru**
Well, Kurai-san sure
is always by herself, but...
**[09:45] Nako**
Right?
**[09:46] Nako**
So it's not like she meant
she hated you or anything.
**[09:51] Nako**
She even said she'd chat with you, right?
**[09:53] Bocchi**
But she won't be friends.
**[09:55] Nako**
Well, we won't know for sure until
we can ask her why she'd say such a thing,
**[10:00] Nako**
but I think you have a chance.
**[10:02] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[10:03] Nako**
Because it's lonely being all
by yourself, without any friends.
**[10:10] Bocchi**
You think so?
**[10:11] Aru**
For now, why don't you
befriend someone else first?
**[10:15] Bocchi**
But...
**[10:16] Sotoka**
It's all right.
**[10:18] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[10:19] Sotoka**
Master, you wanted to become friends
with Kurai-san, right?
**[10:22] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[10:24] Sotoka**
It wasn't as though just anyone would do.
**[10:25] ---**
You wanted to become friends
with Kurai-san, right?
**[10:29] Sotoka**
I'm sure those feelings
will get through to her.
**[10:32] Bocchi**
Sotoka-san...
***SIGN*** Hitori
**[10:38] Bocchi**
Thank you for seeing me home.
**[10:40] Aru**
A little detour every now and then is good.
**[10:42] Aru**
Well, cheer up now.
**[10:44] Bocchi**
Yeah. Bye-bye.
**[10:46] Aru**
Still, a lot of things can happen when
you try to befriend everyone in class, huh?
**[10:52] Nako**
If only everyone was as easy
to understand as you are.
**[10:56] Aru**
Don't talk as if you understand me.
**[11:00] Nako**
*I wonder when she's going to notice.*
**[11:02] Aru**
That reminds me. Did you ask her?
**[11:04] Sotoka**
Huh?
**[11:05] Aru**
You were going to ask Bocchi if you could
be her friend and her apprentice, right?
**[11:09] Sotoka**
No.
**[11:11] Nako**
You still haven't?
**[11:12] Sotoka**
Because I think Master would get mad at me.
**[11:15] Both**
*In Bocchi's case, that's not happening.*
**[11:18] Sotoka**
Besides...
**[11:19] Sotoka**
If I do that, would I be her apprentice?
**[11:22] Sotoka**
Or her friend?
**[11:33] Bocchi**
* I left early, because it took a lot of time*
* yesterday, and I was nearly late.*
**[11:39] Bocchi**
*But today there were no neighbors around,*
***SIGN*** Pedestrian / Cyclist Crossing
**[11:42] Bocchi**
*and I crossed the streets right away,*
**[11:48] Bocchi**
*so I got here too early.*
**[11:52] Bocchi**
*Oh, maybe our classroom isn't open yet.*
**[11:56] Bocchi**
*The key's in the teacher's office.*
**[11:59] Bocchi**
*The teacher's office is the scariest.*
**[12:02] Bocchi**
*Please let it be open.*
**[12:04] Bocchi**
*Please let it be open.*
**[12:06] Bocchi**
*Please let...*
**[12:08] Bocchi**
*Good, it's open.*
**[12:10] Bocchi**
*Oh, Kurai-san.*
**[12:14] Bocchi**
*I-I hid.*
**[12:16] Bocchi**
*What do I do?*
**[12:18] Bocchi**
*It would be weird if I just left,*
**[12:20] Bocchi**
* but she did just tell me*
* we could chat the other day.*
**[12:27] Kako**
Huh?!
**[12:29] Kako**
H-Hey...
**[12:31] Bocchi**
U-Um...
**[12:34] Kako**
Good morning.
**[12:35] Bocchi**
G-Good...
**[12:36] Kako**
Hunched back!
**[12:37] Bocchi**
...morning!
**[12:38] Kako**
Improper posture is bad discipline.
**[12:40] Kako**
Straighten out your back.
**[12:42] Bocchi**
R-Right!
**[12:48] Bocchi**
Wh-What are you doing?
**[12:51] Kako**
Going around and wiping down the desks.
**[12:52] Kako**
We spend the majority
of our day at these desks.
**[12:57] Bocchi**
I-I'll help, too!
**[13:01] Kako**
You can bend your back for this!
**[13:08] Kako**
Thanks to your help, I finished early.
**[13:11] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[13:13] Kako**
Thank you.
**[13:14] Bocchi**
I-It's fine.
**[13:16] Bocchi**
Um, then shall we chat?
**[13:20] Kako**
Sure.
**[13:21] Bocchi**
U-Uh...
**[13:23] Bocchi**
What's your favorite food?
**[13:26] Kako**
What are you reading?
**[13:27] Bocchi**
Ah!
**[13:29] Bocchi**
Some of the words disappeared
because I wiped down the desks.
**[13:38] Bocchi**
But that's okay!
**[13:41] Bocchi**
I wrote them in my notebook, too!
**[13:43] Bocchi**
Lately, I've been preparing backup plans.
**[13:46] Kako**
Please stop making such sad backup plans.
**[13:49] Sotoka**
Wahaha!
**[13:51] Sotoka**
If you laugh, then you can get good grades!
**[13:55] Sotoka**
Hm?
**[13:56] Sotoka**
Nako!
**[13:58] Nako**
Shh!
**[13:59] Sotoka**
Hm?
**[14:01] Bocchi**
U-Uh, first...
***SIGN*** Question "Why do you have a policy against making friends?" Her answer... 1) Family custom -> That's an odd custom, isn't it? (With surprise) 2) To become strong -> I think you're already strong enough, Kurai-san! (Nod firmly) 3) I prefer being alone -> Me, too! (With a bright smile)
**[14:09] Kako**
What?
**[14:10] Bocchi**
Pass for now.
**[14:12] Bocchi**
Pass on what?
**[14:14] Bocchi**
Um, why do you have a policy
against making friends?
**[14:18] Kako**
Oh.
**[14:25] Kako**
To become strong.
**[14:27] Bocchi**
Strong?
**[14:29] Kako**
Having friends just creates
weaknesses in your heart.
**[14:33] Kako**
I'm going to be a strong person
capable of living on her own.
**[14:38] Bocchi**
Uh, nod firmly.
**[14:41] Bocchi**
Uh-huh.
**[14:42] Kako**
I don't think you were supposed
to read that part out loud.
**[14:48] Kako**
I said I didn't mind chatting,
**[14:50] Kako**
but are you having any fun
talking about this stuff?
**[14:52] Bocchi**
Yes. It's a lot of fun
learning more about you.
**[14:57] Bocchi**
You're trying to become strong
enough to live on your own, huh?
**[15:01] Kako**
Yeah.
**[15:02] Bocchi**
That's amazing.
**[15:03] Bocchi**
You're amazing, Kurai-san!
**[15:06] Bocchi**
I never thought of something
like that before.
**[15:09] Kako**
If you want to be strong,
**[15:11] Kako**
you can't be lacking in discipline.
**[15:13] Kako**
So...
**[15:14] Kako**
Hunched back!
**[15:22] Peko**
Good morning.
**[15:25] Kako**
You.
**[15:26] Peko**
Huh?
**[15:28] Kako**
Your thread's fraying.
**[15:30] Kako**
Let me see that for a moment.
**[15:31] Peko**
Huh?!
**[15:33] Nosaki**
Good morning.
**[15:34] Notsugi**
What's wrong?
**[15:35] Kako**
Did you bring your handkerchief today?
**[15:38] Notsugi**
Ah...
**[15:38] Kako**
Good grief. At least carry
a handkerchief with you.
**[15:42] Kako**
I'll lend you this one.
**[15:43] Notsugi**
Oh, really?
**[15:43] Bocchi**
*Kurai-san's incredible..*
**[15:45] Notsugi**
Thank you!
**[15:46] Bocchi**
*I wish I could be like her, too.*
**[15:49] Bocchi**
*Strong...*
**[15:51] Bocchi**
*Strong...*
**[15:53] Bocchi**
*Strong!*
**[15:54] Sotoka**
Master!
**[15:55] Nako**
Sotoka.
**[15:57] Sotoka**
Nako?
**[15:58] Sotoka**
What is it?
**[16:00] Nako**
It's about Bocchi.
**[16:10] Bocchi**
*Strong...*
**[16:11] Bocchi**
*Strong...*
**[16:13] Nako**
*She's thinking about something again.*
**[16:16] Nako**
*Whatever.*
**[16:17] Nako**
* I'm sure it has something*
* to do with Kurai-san.*
**[16:23] Sotoka**
Master!
**[16:24] Sotoka**
It's lunchtime!
**[16:25] Sotoka**
Let's train!
**[16:26] Sotoka**
Today we can—
**[16:30] Sotoka**
*Oh, right.*
**[16:31] Sotoka**
*Nako will get mad at me.*
**[16:34] Sotoka**
Master, please do your best to chat
with Kurai-san during lunch as well.
**[16:38] Bocchi**
Yes. Thank you very much.
**[16:40] Sotoka**
You're welcome.
**[16:41] Bocchi**
Oh, yeah.
**[16:43] Bocchi**
*Right.*
**[16:44] Bocchi**
*Strong, strong...*
**[16:51] Bocchi**
K-Kurai-sa—
**[16:53] Kako**
Hunched back!
**[16:54] Kako**
I told you. Improper
posture is bad discipline.
**[16:57] Bocchi**
R-Right!
**[16:59] Nako**
You did well holding back.
**[17:04] Sotoka**
Nako, I held back!
**[17:08] Sotoka**
I tried not to get in Master's way!
**[17:10] Nako**
Yes, yes. Good girl, good girl.
**[17:13] Sotoka**
I'm training by myself,
even when Master isn't around.
**[17:17] Sotoka**
Dog!
**[17:18] Nako**
Oh, that's folded beautifully.
**[17:21] Nako**
Wait, that has nothing to do with ninjas!
**[17:24] Sotoka**
I can fold many other things, too.
**[17:26] Nako**
That's not the issue here.
**[17:28] Hanako**
So then...
**[17:31] Hanako**
What's wrong?
**[17:32] Aru**
Oh, it's nothing.
**[17:37] Sotoka**
Gym class is also training!
**[17:39] Hanako**
Wow, Sotoka-san's incredible,
no matter what she does.
**[17:43] Aru**
Yeah.
**[17:44] Aru**
In contrast, I'm surprised
the one who sucks at gym...
**[17:48] Aru**
is Nako.
**[17:49] Aru**
How lame!
**[17:51] Bocchi**
*Strong...*
**[17:53] Bocchi**
*Strong...*
**[17:55] Aru**
What is that?
**[18:01] Aru**
Hey there, Sotoka-chan.
**[18:03] Sotoka**
Aru!
**[18:03] Sotoka**
Hey there, hey there.
**[18:04] Aru**
How's it going lately?
**[18:06] Aru**
Have you been lonely with
Bocchi focusing on Kako-chan?
**[18:10] Kako**
Watch the way you swing your arms!
**[18:11] Bocchi**
Yes!
**[18:13] Sotoka**
That's not true.
**[18:15] Sotoka**
This is for my master.
**[18:17] Sotoka**
And we go home together.
**[18:18] Sotoka**
I promised Nako I wouldn't get in her way,
**[18:21] Sotoka**
so she'll be mad if I break it.
**[18:23] Aru**
Really?
**[18:25] Aru**
But you could probably
defeat Nako easily right now.
**[18:29] Nako**
*No more...*
**[18:32] Aru**
You still haven't asked her
after all this time, right?
**[18:35] Aru**
Whether you can be her friend
and still be her apprentice.
**[18:39] Aru**
You should say something.
**[18:40] Aru**
I'm sure it'll be fine.
**[18:42] Sotoka**
But wouldn't that be wishy-washy?
**[18:46] Aru**
Wishy-washy?
**[18:47] Sotoka**
I imagine Master would get confused about
whether I'm her friend or her apprentice.
**[19:00] Nako**
Aru...
**[19:01] Aru**
What?
**[19:02] Nako**
You were making fun of me, weren't you?
**[19:05] Aru**
Dunno.
**[19:06] Sotoka**
She was.
**[19:09] Aru**
Strong?
**[19:10] Nako**
So that's why you've been like that all day?
**[19:14] Bocchi**
Yes!
**[19:15] Nako**
But you don't have a policy
against making friends, right?
**[19:19] Bocchi**
That's right.
**[19:21] Nako**
Come on, now.
**[19:22] Bocchi**
Kurai-san has a policy against making
friends and wants to be strong,
**[19:27] Bocchi**
but I want to be her friend.
**[19:29] Bocchi**
What do I do?
**[19:31] Nako**
Well, you'll probably just have
to be patient and keep at it.
**[19:33] Nako**
Though you sure do a take a liking
to the ones that are difficult.
**[19:38] Aru**
Why don't you befriend Hana-chan first?
**[19:41] Hanako**
Hey, hey, come on. Listen to this!
**[19:43] Hanako**
It's incredible!
**[19:45] Hanako**
When I was at the convenience
store yesterday...
**[19:45] Aru**
She'd be an easy one.
**[19:47] Bocchi**
I made eye contact
with Yamada-san the other day.
**[19:50] Bocchi**
Oh, Sotoka-san?
**[19:53] Bocchi**
Um, p-please do your homework.
**[19:57] Sotoka**
Homework?
**[20:00] Bocchi**
For your ninja arts.
***SIGN*** Ninja Arts Drills
***SIGN*** Nin, nin!
**[20:02] Bocchi**
I made some for you, if you don't mind.
**[20:05] Sotoka**
For ninja arts?
**[20:07] Sotoka**
I'll do it!
**[20:08] Bocchi**
Really?
**[20:09] Sotoka**
Yes! I'll do my best!
**[20:13] Bocchi**
Okay! I will, too!
***SIGN*** Do-Your-Best Fairy
**[20:17] Bocchi**
Oh, this is the Do-Your-Best Fairy!
**[20:20] Bocchi**
O-One moment. I'll go get some change!
**[20:25] Sotoka**
This is hard!
**[20:28] Aru**
What are you going to do?
**[20:29] Sotoka**
I'll do my best.
**[20:30] Sotoka**
I'll stop being wishy-washy.
**[20:32] Sotoka**
For now, I want to be able
**[20:33] Sotoka**
to repay Master for everything she's
taught me as her apprentice.
**[20:38] Aru**
I see.
**[20:44] Kako**
There.
**[20:46] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Incredible.
**[20:47] (Flashback) Bocchi**
You're incredible, Kurai-san.
**[21:01] Kako**
*I haven't had enough training.*
**[21:06] Sotoka**
Okay, well I'm heading that way,
so see you tomorrow.
**[21:09] Nako**
Yeah.
**[21:10] Bocchi**
Sotoka-san, you live by yourself, don't you?
**[21:13] Aru**
Do you get lonely living on your own?
**[21:16] Sotoka**
I'm fine.
**[21:17] Sotoka**
If it stops being fine,
then I'll go back home.
**[21:20] Nako**
Talk to us before then, okay?
**[21:23] Sotoka**
Well, then...
**[21:24] Aru**
Later.
**[21:25] Bocchi**
Bye-bye.
**[21:32] Sotoka**
It's not lonely at all!
**[21:36] Sotoka**
Speed walk!
**[21:43] Sotoka**
I'm home!

**[02:13] Nosaki**
Well, does it look good?
**[02:15] Peko**
That color's cute on you.
**[02:17] Ito**
Cooking class is kind of fun.
**[02:20] Bocchi**
*I-I need to speak to them.*
**[02:20] Nosaki**
I think we're getting something special,
being able to cook and eat during class.
**[02:22] Bocchi**
*I need to be strong.*
**[02:24] Bocchi**
*Strong!*
**[02:25] Peko**
I know. I know!
**[02:26] Peko**
And we have lunch after this, too.
**[02:28] Bocchi**
*Wait...*
**[02:30] Bocchi**
*But if I suddenly speak to them...*
**[02:34] Nosaki**
She suddenly spoke!
**[02:35] Peko**
Her voice is wavering, too.
**[02:37] Ito**
I didn't know she could talk.
**[02:39] Bocchi**
*They'll think things like that!*
**[02:41] Bocchi**
*The first time is important.*
**[02:43] Bocchi**
*If I start with...*

I can speak!

*When I speak to them...*
**[02:48] Peko**
So, what are we making?
**[02:51] Ito**
Well, they said we're making hot cakes.
**[02:54] Nosaki**
How's that different from pancakes?
**[02:57] Bocchi**
F-Fancier?
**[02:59] Peko**
Pancakes are fancier!
**[03:02] Nosaki**
What the heck?
**[03:04] Ito**
That might be the perfect answer, though.
**[03:04] Bocchi**
Uh-huh.

**[03:43] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[03:46] Ito**
Y-You're really into it.
**[03:51] Nosaki**
Okay.
**[03:52] Nosaki**
Two hundred grams of bread flour
and forty grams of sugar.
**[03:54] Nosaki**
Measure it with this.
**[03:56] Bocchi**
A-All right.
**[03:57] Bocchi**
*Okay. I'll make everyone think...*
**[04:02] Bocchi**
I'm glad we had Hitori-san!
**[04:05] Bocchi**
*...by handling my part properly!*
**[04:09] Bocchi**
*Uh, 200, 200...*
**[04:18] Bocchi**
A-A-Achoo!
**[04:22] Nosaki**
Oh, no!
**[04:23] Peko**
It's smoking up!
**[04:25] Ito**
Hey, grab a towel!
**[04:27] Bocchi**
I—
**[04:28] Bocchi**
I'm s—
**[04:30] Bocchi**
I'm s—
**[04:35] Ito**
There we go.
**[04:36] Nako**
But what do we do now?
**[04:38] Nako**
We don't have enough ingredients left.
**[04:40] Peko**
Oh, no.
**[04:43] Bocchi**
*They made the effort to speak to me, yet...*
**[04:46] Bocchi**
*They gave me a role to fill, and yet...*
**[04:49] Nako**
You're going to be strong, right?
**[04:51] Bocchi**
Nako-chan...
**[04:56] Bocchi**
I-I...
**[04:57] Bocchi**
I'll go ask the other groups
if they can spare some for us.
**[05:02] Girl**
Hitori-san?
**[05:10] Girl**
*Uh...*
**[05:11] Girl**
*What group could I ask?*
**[05:13] Girl**
*A group even I could ask...*
**[05:16] Girl**
*One even I...*
**[05:18] Girl**
*There isn't one like that!*
**[05:22] Aru**
Having trouble?
***SIGN*** Festival
**[05:26] Bocchi**
Aru-chan, that outfit...
**[05:29] Aru**
Yeah, never mind that.
**[05:32] Nako**
You're as unfortunate as ever.
**[05:34] Aru**
Don't say it.
**[05:35] Aru**
I was watching.
**[05:37] Bocchi**
Aru-chan, I...
**[05:40] Aru**
Here.
**[05:41] Aru**
Use some from my group.
**[05:43] Bocchi**
Huh? Are you sure?
**[05:44] Aru**
It's fine. It's fine.
**[05:46] Aru**
I often make mistakes like that myself.
**[05:50] Bocchi**
Aru-chan...
**[05:52] Aru**
Also, take this.
**[05:54] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[05:54] Aru**
It's a special dish.
**[05:56] Aru**
Just keep stirring it.
**[05:58] Bocchi**
Stir it?
**[06:00] Aru**
Don't worry. Just trust me.
**[06:03] Aru**
After all, I'm the world's
class vice president!
**[06:07] Nako**
Though you're unfortunate.
**[06:09] Aru**
Unfor... Just be careful you don't end up
with an unfortunate flavor!
**[06:13] Aru**
Later.
**[06:16] Nako**
Bocchi, do your best.
**[06:22] Peko**
It should be fine now.
**[06:24] Nosaki**
Okay, then let's bake it.
**[06:26] Bocchi**
*Aru-chan gave me a new role.*
**[06:30] Bocchi**
*This time...*

*Okay, I'll use the other arm.*
***SIGN*** Stir
**[06:55] Bocchi**
*Oh, th-this is!*
**[06:58] Peko**
Hitori-chan, what are you doing?
**[07:00] Peko**
Oh, could that be...
**[07:03] Peko**
Whipped cream!
**[07:05] Ito**
You made some?
**[07:06] Ito**
Incredible!
**[07:07] Nosaki**
That was hard, wasn't it?
**[07:09] Bocchi**
Oh, no, I just...
**[07:11] Peko**
I see.
**[07:12] Peko**
If we put some of that on the hot cakes...
**[07:17] Nosaki**
We'll have fancy pancakes.
**[07:19] Peko**
They'll be fancier than hot cakes!
**[07:21] Ito**
Ours will be the only ones with cream!
**[07:24] Peko**
I'm so hungry.
**[07:26] Peko**
Let's hurry up and eat!
**[07:27] Ito**
Okay, then...
**[07:29] All**
Let's dig in!
**[07:31] Bocchi**
Let's have some.
**[07:33] Bocchi**
*Wh-What do I do if it tastes weird?*
**[07:36] Bocchi**
*I-I should test it first.*
**[07:42] Peko**
Oh, way to eat up!
**[07:45] Bocchi**
*I was too nervous to tell how it tasted.*
**[07:48] Peko**
Is it that good?
**[07:53] Nosaki**
It's good!
**[07:54] Peko**
It really is!
**[07:56] Peko**
Thanks to Hitori-chan, it's delicious!
**[07:59] Bocchi**
Huh? Thanks to me?
**[08:01] Ito**
Yeah, that's right.
**[08:06] Peko**
Oh, you finally smiled.
**[08:08] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[08:09] Bocchi**
Y-Yeah.
**[08:10] Bocchi**
*Thank goodness.*
**[08:12] Bocchi**
* But I still need to apologize*
* for causing them trouble.*
**[08:16] Bocchi**
*I need to speak up on my own!*
**[08:19] Peko**
I look forward to being in
the same group again, Hitori-chan.
**[08:22] Bocchi**
I-I'm sorry!
**[08:24] All**
Huh?
**[08:24] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[08:26] Nosaki**
Sorry?
**[08:27] Ito**
She said...
**[08:28] Peko**
She turned me down!
**[08:29] Bocchi**
Ah!
**[08:37] Nako**
So it all went well, then?
**[08:39] Sotoka**
Way to go, Master!
**[08:41] Bocchi**
Yes.
**[08:42] Bocchi**
But it only went so well because of Aru-chan.
**[08:45] Aru**
See, you hear that?
**[08:47] Aru**
That's how I usually am.
**[08:49] Aru**
The world's class vice president!
**[08:51] Aru**
Honshou Aru!
**[08:52] Nako**
How long have you been
wearing that on your head?
**[08:57] Sotoka**
At this rate, I'm sure you'll be able
to get along with Kurai-san in no time.
**[09:01] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[09:01] Bocchi**
Oh, well...
**[09:04] Nako**
Well, why don't you introduce
us to Kurai-san, too?
**[09:08] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[09:09] Nako**
You'd prefer it if we could
all be together, right?
**[09:13] Bocchi**
Could we all be together if I introduce you?
**[09:16] Nako**
That's up to you.
**[09:18] Bocchi**
Th-That...
**[09:20] Bocchi**
sounds like something
incredible might happen.
**[09:22] Nako**
What's with that tone?
**[09:24] Aru**
When will you do it?
**[09:25] Nako**
Well, the sooner the better,
so how about tomorrow?
**[09:29] Kako**
Oh?
**[09:31] Kako**
What are you all doing here?
**[09:34] Nako**
Watching the chickens and relaxing.
**[09:36] Kako**
I see.
**[09:37] Aru**
How about you?
**[09:39] Kako**
Making the rounds to check for
any problems with school equipment.
**[09:42] Bocchi**
K-Kurai-san...
**[09:45] Nako**
This might be the perfect chance.
**[09:46] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[09:47] Sotoka**
Master.
**[09:48] Aru**
Bocchi.
**[09:51] Aru**
Yeah.
**[09:57] Kako**
Hitori-san?
**[09:58] Bocchi**
I-I'm Hitori Bocchi!
**[10:01] Bocchi**
My favorite food is rice with natto!
**[10:04] Bocchi**
I prefer natto crushed.
**[10:06] Bocchi**
But the large-bean version is nice, too!
**[10:08] Bocchi**
With larger beans, you can
enjoy the bean flavor more.
**[10:10] Bocchi**
That's one of the nice things about natto!
**[10:20] Kako**
What are you going on about?!
**[10:22] Aru**
U-Um, actually we—
**[10:25] Nako**
Aru.
**[10:28] Bocchi**
*I need to introduce my precious friends.*
**[10:32] Bocchi**
F-First, while she's an apprentice,
not a friend, there's my precious
**[10:40] Bocchi**
Sotoka Rakita-san!
**[10:44] Kako**
That's a chicken.
**[10:47] Sotoka**
Master, over here!
**[10:48] Bocchi**
Oh, Sotoka Rakita-san!
**[10:51] Sotoka**
Sotoka here!
**[10:53] Sotoka**
I'm Master's apprentice.
**[10:55] Sotoka**
For now.
**[10:56] Kako**
For now?
**[10:57] Bocchi**
N-Next is...
**[11:00] Bocchi**
Aru-chan.
**[11:01] Bocchi**
Honshou Aru-san.
**[11:04] Bocchi**
Aru-chan's our class vice president,
and she's incredible.
**[11:08] Bocchi**
She has a really nice song she made herself:
"Don't lose, Aru! Shine, Aru!"
**[11:14] Bocchi**
Sometimes she follows fashion trends like
wearing her uniform with the hanger still in it,
**[11:18] Bocchi**
or wearing an elementary school backpack...
**[11:19] Aru**
Hold on a minute!
**[11:21] Bocchi**
But she's always incredible.
**[11:23] Kako**
I see.
**[11:24] Kako**
That is incredible.
**[11:27] Kako**
And unfortunate.
**[11:28] Aru**
Who are you calling unfortunate?!
**[11:29] Aru**
My stomach's hurting!
**[11:33] Sotoka**
Don't worry about it.
**[11:34] Bocchi**
A-And lastly, there's Nako-chan.
**[11:37] Bocchi**
Sunao Nako-san.
**[11:39] (Flashback) Nako**
You should call me Nako.
**[11:42] (Flashback) Nako**
Promise?
**[11:46] (Flashback) Nako**
Just keep at it.
**[11:47] Bocchi**
Nako-chan's...
**[11:49] Bocchi**
Nako-chan's...
**[11:51] Bocchi**
the person who sits in front of me.
**[11:53] Nako**
That's all?!
**[11:54] Bocchi**
A-Also, she's very precious to me,
**[11:58] Bocchi**
because she's the first one
who became my friend.
**[12:00] Nako**
That normally comes first, you know.
**[12:02] Bocchi**
These are all the people precious to me.
**[12:07] Kako**
I see.
**[12:10] Kako**
I'm Kurai Kako.
**[12:12] Kako**
It's my policy not to make any friends.
**[12:14] Kako**
Thank you for the introductions.
**[12:16] Kako**
Later.
**[12:18] Aru**
Policy?
**[12:20] Sotoka**
She's tough, Master.
**[12:23] Bocchi**
Yes.
**[12:24] Nako**
You giving up?
**[12:26] Bocchi**
No, I'm not giving up.
**[12:30] Nako**
Why not?
**[12:31] Bocchi**
Next week, we'll be able to choose the people
to group with for our outdoor class, right?
**[12:36] Aru**
Yeah.
**[12:37] Bocchi**
Then I want to form a group
with everyone and Kurai-san
**[12:41] Bocchi**
and make curry together.
**[12:43] Aru**
I see.
**[12:44] Nako**
Well, then try saying something to her again.
**[12:46] Nako**
At the perfect moment.
**[12:48] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[12:49] Bocchi**
I'll do my best.
**[12:50] Bocchi**
At the perfect (*zekkou*) moment.
**[12:53] (Flashback) Kai**
Not friends (*zekkou*)!
***SIGN*** Not Friends

**[13:15] Bocchi**
*The perfect...*

*The perfect...*
**[13:27] Bocchi**

**[13:29] Kako**
What?
**[13:32] Kako**
Did you think I hadn't noticed?
**[13:34] Kako**
If you need something, hurry up and say it.
**[13:37] Bocchi**
U-Um...
**[13:39] Bocchi**
*Invite her.*
**[13:40] Bocchi**
*Now's your only chance.*
**[13:43] Kako**
Wh-What?
**[13:45] Bocchi**
Please make curry with me!
**[13:47] Bocchi**
Please join my group
during our outdoor class!
**[13:51] Kako**
Oh, that's what you wanted?
**[13:55] Kako**
I'm sorry.
**[13:56] Kako**
I have no intention
of joining a group of friends.
**[13:59] Kako**
Please ask someone else.
**[14:07] Bocchi**
*Don't cry. You have to stop her.*
**[14:10] Bocchi**
*Hold it back.*
**[14:12] Bocchi**
*Hold it back.*
**[14:14] Bocchi**
I'm... weak!
**[14:20] Bocchi**
So...
**[14:22] Bocchi**
Please join me.
**[14:30] Kako**
I suppose you did mess up
during our last cooking class.
**[14:34] Bocchi**
Aru-chan was there to help me then.
**[14:38] Kako**
Our class vice president Honshou-san did?
***SIGN*** Strong Person
***SIGN*** Unfortunate Person
**[14:43] Kako**
*I can't underestimate her.*
**[14:45] Bocchi**
S-So...
**[14:48] Kako**
I suppose one could say they're well developed
when they can cover another's mistake.
**[14:54] Kako**
All right.
**[14:55] Kako**
I'll join your group as well, Hitori-san.
**[14:58] Kako**
Let's make the best curry together.
**[15:01] Bocchi**
Really?
**[15:04] Bocchi**
You mean it?!
**[15:06] Kako**
Yeah.
**[15:06] Kako**
I'll be counting on you.
**[15:08] Bocchi**
Yes!
**[15:09] Aru**
That's it!
Raise everyone's opinion of me more!
**[15:13] Nako**
Yeah, that's not happening.
**[15:14] Nako**
Right, Sotoka?
**[15:15] Sotoka**
Not happening.
**[15:16] Aru**
Don't say that it's not happening!
**[15:18] Kako**
What kind of curry
is your favorite, Hitori-san?
**[15:20] Bocchi**
I love all kinds.
**[15:22] Bocchi**
I even put natto in sometimes.
**[15:23] Kako**
Natto?!
**[15:24] Kako**
In curry?
**[15:25] Bocchi**
Yup!
**[15:26] Kako**
I guess I'll give it a try sometime.
**[15:29] Bocchi**
Do you like curry too, Kurai-san?
**[15:31] Kako**
A-And?!
**[15:33] Kako**
Are you trying to suggest
that I'm looking forward to curry?
**[15:36] Bocchi**
N-No, uh...
**[15:38] Kako**
If you're going to start doing that,
I'll skip the whole outdoor class day!
**[15:42] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[15:45] Kako**
Later.
**[15:47] Bocchi**
Skip it?
**[15:48] Nako**
I'm sure it'll be fine.
**[15:50] Sotoka**
That's right.
**[15:52] Sotoka**
You invited her after all, Master.
**[15:54] Bocchi**
Sotoka-san...
**[15:56] Nako**
You were a little stronger
than usual today, Bocchi.
**[16:00] Bocchi**
Nako-chan...
**[16:02] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[16:03] Nako**
But I don't think being in the seat
in front of you means much.
**[16:07] Aru**
You worry about some awfully small things.
**[16:11] Bocchi**
An outdoor class with everyone, huh?
**[16:13] Bocchi**
I can't wait.
**[16:16] Bocchi**
Uh, when we get there, first, we should...
***SIGN*** Sunao

**[16:26] Bocchi**
Yes, I'll take it now.
**[16:27] Bocchi**
Three, two, one...
**[16:32] Aru**
How's it look?
**[16:34] Aru**
You got a cute photo of us.
**[16:36] Bocchi**
Yes!
**[16:36] Bocchi**
I'll use it as my home screen!
**[16:38] Nako**
*Is it okay that Bocchi's not in it?*
**[16:42] Kako**
Everyone, can I have a moment?
**[16:45] Kako**
I've been thinking about what
I could do after joining this team.
**[16:49] Aru**
What you could do?
**[16:51] Kako**
I don't want to get in the way
when you all get along.
**[16:54] Kako**
But since you invited me to join you,
I want to make sure I do my part.

**[17:06] Kako**
Let's make a delicious curry
that won't lose to the other groups!
**[17:12] Aru**
Kako-chan...
**[17:14] Aru**
Are you excited about this?
**[17:18] Kako**
The curry we'll be making today
is seafood curry.
**[17:22] Nako**
Seafood?
**[17:23] Aru**
In the mountains?
**[17:24] Sotoka**
I'd prefer seafood doria!
**[17:28] Kako**
I thought really hard about this.
**[17:31] Bocchi**
K-Kurai-san.
**[17:33] Nako**
*Oh, she's easily hurt.*
**[17:35] Bocchi**
I like seafood curry.
**[17:38] Bocchi**
It's good!
**[17:39] Bocchi**
It's good, so it's fine to go with that.
**[17:40] Bocchi**
It's fine.
**[17:42] Nako**
Yeah, it is.
**[17:44] Aru**
Yeah, that's fine. Totally.
**[17:47] Bocchi**
Everyone's okay with it, too!
**[17:50] Kako**
Thank you, Hitori-san.
**[17:55] Kako**
Well, let's start making
our preparations at once.
**[17:58] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[17:59] Aru**
*She really is excited.*
**[18:01] Nako**
Uh, according to this guide,
**[18:04] Nako**
Kurai-san will be in charge of the fire,
**[18:07] Nako**
and Aru's on the cooking gear.
**[18:09] Nako**
Sotoka and Bocchi will be in charge
of cutting the vegetables,
**[18:12] Nako**
while I supervise.
**[18:15] Kako**
There's no position like that!
**[18:20] Bocchi**
Onions make my eyes water.
**[18:22] Nako**
Bocchi.
**[18:24] Bocchi**
Nako-chan.
**[18:25] Nako**
Hold your left hand like this.
**[18:28] Aru**
You can cook, Nako?
**[18:30] Nako**
I do a bit here and there at home.
**[18:33] Aru**
No way, that doesn't fit you at all.
**[18:36] Nako**
What do you mean "no way"?
**[18:37] Nako**
It won't melt when you boil it,
so cut it a bit more finely.
**[18:41] Nako**
Now for a break.
**[18:43] Kako**
Sunao-san.
**[18:46] Kako**
What kind of person is Hitori-san?
**[18:48] Nako**
Well...
**[18:50] Nako**
She's a person who sits behind me and barfs.
**[18:53] Kako**
Oh yeah, that did happen.
**[18:57] Nako**
Well, jokes like that aside,
**[18:59] Nako**
Bocchi's constantly been talking about being
stronger ever since she started talking to you.
**[19:04] Bocchi**
Okay!
**[19:06] Bocchi**
Now it won't sting my eyes!
**[19:07] Sotoka**
Way to go, Master!
**[19:09] Sotoka**
I'll do it, too!
**[19:11] Nako**
There are plenty of times she fails,
**[19:13] Nako**
but I think she is getting stronger bit by bit.
**[19:16] Nako**
Though she probably doesn't realize it herself.
**[19:21] Kako**
*Stronger...*
**[19:23] Sotoka**
Master, where are you?
**[19:26] Bocchi**
I can't see!
**[19:27] Kako**
*Really?*
**[19:31] Kako**
Wow, it looks delicious.
**[19:33] Sotoka**
I'm so sorry I said I'd prefer seafood doria.
**[19:36] Sotoka**
Come on! Come on! Let's eat it!
**[19:39] Aru**
Okay. Then everyone put your hands together.
**[19:42] All**
Time to eat!
**[19:51] Aru**
So good!
**[19:52] Sotoka**
Excellent!
**[19:54] Nako**
I wondered about seafood curry at first,
**[19:59] Nako**
but this is good.
**[20:00] Kako**
Of course it is.
**[20:01] Kako**
I spent a whole week
doing daily research for this!
**[20:06] Bocchi**
A whole week?!
**[20:07] Nako**
That's some incredible obsession.
**[20:09] Kako**
And despite how Hitori-san
was endangering herself,
**[20:12] Kako**
Honshou-san forgetting to put water
in the mess tin to cook the rice,
**[20:15] Kako**
and it wasn't made properly at all...
**[20:18] Kako**
Somehow...
**[20:21] Kako**
*Today's curry is the most delicious.*
**[20:27] Kako**
What is this?!
**[20:28] Kako**
It's huge?!
**[20:29] Sotoka**
Oh, that's the grand prize
jumbo shuriken potato.
**[20:33] Sotoka**
Lucky you!
**[20:35] Kako**
Don't put weird things in there!
**[20:36] Aru**
I'll take it, then.
**[20:38] Sotoka**
No you don't, Aru.
**[20:40] Sotoka**
I will.
**[20:41] Bocchi**
I'd like some, too.
**[20:44] Kako**
I-I never said I didn't want it.
**[20:50] Kako**
D-Don't laugh!
**[20:59] Bocchi**
Hup...
**[21:01] Kako**
Hitori-san.
**[21:03] Kako**
Thank you for inviting me today.
**[21:06] Bocchi**
Kurai-san.
**[21:08] Kako**
I learned something by watching you today.
**[21:10] Kako**
You're trying to grow stronger
by making friends.
**[21:14] Kako**
It's the complete opposite
of my idea to grow stronger alone.
**[21:21] Kako**
So I want to watch to see whether
you continue to grow even stronger.
**[21:25] Kako**
Not as friends, but rivals.
**[21:28] Bocchi**
Rivals?
**[21:29] Kako**
Yes.
**[21:30] Kako**
Our ideas may be different,
**[21:33] Kako**
but we're both aiming to be stronger.
**[21:36] Kako**
So let's be rivals.
**[21:40] Kako**
*I want to learn more...*
**[21:42] Kako**
*about the ideas Hitori-san has that I don't.*
**[21:45] Bocchi**
Um...
**[21:47] Bocchi**
Would being rivals count as being friends?
**[21:50] Kako**
It wouldn't!
**[21:54] Bocchi**
What are rivals supposed to do?
**[21:56] Bocchi**
Does she want to arm wrestle or something?
**[21:59] Bocchi**
Or...
**[22:00] Bocchi**
Ah!
**[22:01] Bocchi**
I'm not in the picture!

**[00:04] Sotoka**
It's gotten quite cold out now.
**[00:07] Sotoka**
At times like this...
**[00:09] Sotoka**
Speed walk!
**[00:13] Sotoka**
Oh, Master!
**[00:14] Sotoka**
Master!
**[00:16] Sotoka**
Good morning!
**[00:18] Bocchi**
G-Good
**[00:20] Bocchi**
morning!
**[00:22] Sotoka**
You're a little different today, Master.
**[00:25] Bocchi**
I am.
**[00:26] Bocchi**
I'm super-strong Bocchi!
**[00:29] Sotoka**
Super-strong Master?!
**[00:31] Sotoka**
What do you do to become that?
**[00:34] Bocchi**
Well, today we have closing
ceremonies for second semester.
**[00:37] Sotoka**
It happens at closing ceremonies?!
**[00:41] Sotoka**
Master?
**[00:43] Bocchi**
I couldn't make any friends this semester,
unlike first semester.
**[00:48] Bocchi**
But...
**[00:49] Bocchi**
Since I'm sure I've grown stronger
than I was in first semester,
**[00:53] Bocchi**
I've become super-strong Bocchi!
**[00:56] Sotoka**
Master!
**[00:59] Sotoka**
I-I'm going to become
super-strong Sotoka, too!
**[01:07] Nako**
Cold!
**[01:09] Nako**
Hm?
**[01:13] Nako**
What?
***SIGN*** No One Said That Before
**[02:52] Sotoka**
Master.
**[02:54] Bocchi**
What is it?
**[02:55] Sotoka**
I think you'll gain confidence
if you show Nako and the others
**[02:58] ---**
how you're stronger than usual.
**[03:01] Bocchi**
Right.
**[03:03] Bocchi**
Nako-chan.
**[03:04] Nako**
Hm?
**[03:05] Bocchi**
Do you notice anything
different about me today?
**[03:08] Nako**
Huh?! Why are you suddenly asking
me such a girly question?
**[03:12] Bocchi**
Something about me is stronger
than usual today!
**[03:15] Nako**
Oh, that wasn't what she meant.
**[03:18] Bocchi**
Your hint is feet!
**[03:19] Nako**
Feet?
**[03:20] Nako**
Hm...
**[03:22] Nako**
Oh, you're standing on your heels!
**[03:25] Bocchi**
I'm super-strong Bocchi.
**[03:27] Nako**
And how are you strong?
**[03:29] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[03:33] Nako**
Uh, hey...
**[03:34] Bocchi**
*It didn't go well with Nako-chan, so...*
**[03:37] Bocchi**
Aru-chan.
**[03:39] Bocchi**
Today, I ate natto for breakfast,
**[03:43] Bocchi**
but I added the mustard, which I never do!
**[03:47] Aru**
You never add the mustard?
**[03:49] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[03:50] Bocchi**
But today I added a little.
**[03:52] Aru**
I see.
**[03:54] Aru**
I'm the type that always adds all the mustard,
**[03:56] Aru**
so I guess I'll try leaving it out next time.
**[03:59] Bocchi**
All?!
**[04:00] Bocchi**
Aru-chan, you're mature.
**[04:02] Bocchi**
I really am weak.
**[04:04] Aru**
Huh? Huh?!
**[04:05] Aru**
Hey, Bocchi!
**[04:08] Sotoka**
Aru.
**[04:08] Aru**
Wh-What?
**[04:10] Nako**
Hey, Sotoka?
**[04:12] Sotoka**
Come with me!
**[04:16] Aru**
What? So that's what's going on.
**[04:21] Sotoka**
We need to think about how we can
get Master to realize she's the strongest.
**[04:25] Nako**
She's not the strongest, though.
**[04:27] Aru**
Yeah.
**[04:28] Aru**
I wish we could get her to realize
that there's nothing wrong,
**[04:32] ---**
even if she's not making many more friends.
**[04:35] Nako**
Unfortunately, I think that'll be
impossible to do by the end of the day.
**[04:39] Aru**
Who are you—
**[04:41] Aru**
Not me, I suppose.
**[04:43] Sotoka**
Do you think she would realize it
if I stopped being her apprentice?
**[04:47] Nako**
Huh?
**[04:48] Aru**
Why would you do that?
**[04:50] Sotoka**
If I become her friend,
instead of her apprentice,
**[04:53] Sotoka**
then Master will have made a friend
during the second semester.
**[04:55] Sotoka**
But do you think she'd understand
that she's strong?
**[04:59] Aru**
Well...
**[05:00] Nako**
I think Bocchi would be happy
regardless of being weak or strong.
**[05:04] Sotoka**
But I think Master might only
see me as her apprentice!
**[05:10] Aru**
Is being her apprentice that important?
**[05:12] Aru**
It probably is to Sotoka.
**[05:15] Sotoka**
Ah, what do I do?!
**[05:17] Aru**
Thinking about it a bit more,
**[05:19] Aru**
befriending everyone in class
**[05:21] Aru**
is unreasonable, isn't it?
**[05:22] Nako**
But maybe she thinks she can't change
if she doesn't go that far?
**[05:26] Aru**
Was Bocchi ever that bad?
**[05:29] Nako**
Thinking back to how she first was,
**[05:32] Nako**
I suppose she has grown much stronger.
**[05:35] Sotoka**
* So that was how I failed to tell Master*
* anything before winter break started.*
**[05:42] Sotoka**
*Then it was Christmas...*
**[05:50] Sotoka**
*And now it's New Year's.*
**[05:53] Nako**
Figures there are fewer people around
after the first three days of the year.
**[05:57] Bocchi**
There are lots of stalls here.
**[05:59] Bocchi**
I wonder where they go
the rest of the time?
**[06:01] Aru**
Hey, why don't we each buy
different things and share them?
**[06:05] Sotoka**
Nice idea!
**[06:06] Bocchi**
You can actually do that?
**[06:08] Nako**
Well, I'm buying candied apples, then.
**[06:10] Aru**
I just said to buy things to share!
**[06:12] Sotoka**
I'll get goldfish!
**[06:14] Aru**
Goldfish aren't sushi!
**[06:19] Bocchi**
There's nothing there,
yet cotton keeps coming out!
**[06:21] Sotoka**
A ninja art?
**[06:23] Both**
Ninja!
**[06:25] Aru**
Well? We should be able
to share a bit of thi—
**[06:36] Sotoka**
When paying a visit, you bow twice,
clap twice, then bow once...
**[06:39] Sotoka**
Or so I've heard.
**[06:40] Bocchi**
Wow.
**[06:41] Sotoka**
Well, let's do it!
**[06:43] Bocchi**
Yes!
**[06:45] Sotoka**
Bow twice, clap twice, bow once!
**[06:47] Bocchi**
Bow twice, clap twice, bow once!
**[06:49] Aru**
No, you don't say it like some chant.
**[06:53] Kako**
Bow twice, clap twice, bow once!
**[06:57] Aru**
Kako-chan?
**[06:59] Kako**
Wh-Why?
**[07:01] Nako**
Well, to pay our New Year's visit.
**[07:03] Aru**
I never expected you to recite that chant
when you're on our disciplinary committee.
**[07:06] Kako**
N-No!
**[07:08] Kako**
That's not it!
**[07:09] Bocchi**
Kurai-san.
**[07:14] Kako**
Happy New Year.
**[07:16] Bocchi**
Oh!
**[07:17] Bocchi**
Happy New Year to you!
**[07:19] Sotoka**
Happy New Year!
**[07:22] Kako**
Help me become a strong person.
**[07:24] Aru**
Help me become a perfect person.
**[07:27] Bocchi**
Help me befriend everyone
in class and make up with Kai-chan.
**[07:33] Sotoka**
Help me and Master...
**[07:36] Sotoka**
Help me master the ninja arts
I'm learning from Master.
**[07:41] Nako**
Uh, may good things happen to us.
**[07:45] Aru**
What's that?
**[07:46] Aru**
Don't you have something you want?
Any dreams?
**[07:48] Nako**
Not really.
**[07:49] Bocchi**
Nako-chan has a dream, but it's a secret.
**[07:53] Nako**
Hey, Bocchi.
**[07:54] Aru**
Wow, what is it? What is it?
**[07:56] Aru**
I want to know. I want to know.
I want to know!
**[07:59] Aru**
Tell me!
**[08:02] Nako**
Oh, fine. My dream is...
**[08:04] Aru**
Your dream is?
**[08:06] Nako**
To become the perfect version
of myself, I suppose.
**[08:09] Aru**
Perfect version of yourself?
**[08:10] Aru**
What? That's so silly—
**[08:13] Aru**
Wait, that's mine!
**[08:15] Bocchi**
Oh, Kurai-san.
**[08:17] Sotoka**
You're leaving?
**[08:19] Kako**
It's not as if I came here with you all,
**[08:22] Kako**
and I have plans to meet up
with my relatives after this.
**[08:25] Kako**
Later.
**[08:28] Bocchi**
Someday...
**[08:29] Bocchi**
I'd like to be friends with Kurai-san.
**[08:34] Sotoka**
Master, um...
**[08:37] Bocchi**
What is it?
**[08:38] Sotoka**
Um, Master. I...
**[08:41] Sotoka**
No, if I...
**[08:44] Bocchi**
Oh.
**[08:45] Bocchi**
It's Onaka-san and Kurie-san.
**[08:47] Nako**
I suppose everyone's here
because it's New Year's.
**[08:51] Bocchi**
I still haven't given them
a proper apology for cooking class.
**[08:56] Aru**
Oh, you mean when you got flour everywhere?
**[08:59] Bocchi**
I'll go apologize.
**[09:01] Nako**
**[09:02] Bocchi**
I think I need to be
a little stronger than before!
**[09:08] Nako**
That reminds me, Sotoka.
**[09:10] Nako**
Whatever happened to being her friend?
**[09:13] Sotoka**
Urk.
**[09:13] Aru**
What? You still haven't talked to her?
**[09:16] Bocchi**
I-I'm sorry!
**[09:20] Bocchi**
I said it!
**[09:22] Nako**
She's so far away!
**[09:24] Peko**
Oh, Hitori-chan. Happy New Year!
**[09:27] Ito**
Happy New Year!
**[09:28] Bocchi**
H-Happy!
**[09:31] Peko**
Are you here for your first
yearly visit, too, Hitori-chan?
**[09:33] Bocchi**
Y-Yes.
**[09:35] Bocchi**
Um...
**[09:36] Bocchi**
U-Um, when we were making pancakes...
**[09:40] Bocchi**
Uh...
**[09:41] Ito**
Right.
**[09:42] Ito**
Want to go eat some pancakes sometime?
**[09:44] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[09:45] Peko**
I do! Let's go right now!
**[09:47] Bocchi**
R-Right now?
**[09:48] Ito**
I don't mean today.
**[09:50] Ito**
Hitori-chan, I'll contact you later
so we can set a date, okay?
**[09:54] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[09:55] Ito**
No?
**[09:56] Bocchi**
U-Um, I...
**[09:59] Peko**
What, what?
**[10:01] Bocchi**
If you don't mind,
could we go together as friends?
**[10:06] Nako**
Oh!
**[10:07] Sotoka**
Master...
**[10:08] Bocchi**
Please be my friend!
**[10:15] Peko**
Of course!
**[10:16] Peko**
I mean, we've already been
pancake buddies for a while now.
**[10:19] Ito**
Glad to know you.
**[10:24] Nako**
You did it.
**[10:25] Sotoka**
Good for you, Master.
**[10:30] Aru**
Oh, it's from Kai-chan.
**[10:32] Aru**
She's asking whether Bocchi's crying.
**[10:35] Nako**
Kai-chan?
**[10:36] Nako**
How do you have her contact info?
**[10:38] Aru**
We quietly exchanged information back
when we saw her during her karaoke.
**[10:41] Aru**
I'll tell her Bocchi's incredible.
**[10:44] Peko**
Hitori-chan?!
**[10:45] Peko**
What's happened to her?
**[10:47] Ito**
No way! She passed out?!
**[10:49] Nako**
She hasn't fixed that part?
**[10:49] Ito**
Hey, Hitori-chan?
**[10:53] Bocchi**
Kai-chan...
**[10:54] Bocchi**
Wait for me.
**[10:56] Peko**
Kai-chan?
**[10:58] Nako**
Good grief.
**[10:59] Aru**
I'm going to take a picture of Bocchi's
sleeping face and send it to Kai-chan.
**[11:04] Aru**
I—
**[11:04] Sotoka**
What?!
**[11:05] Aru**
I...
**[11:06] Aru**
I-I, I...
**[11:09] Aru**
I got my cotton candy back!
**[11:13] Kai**
Incredible!
**[11:14] Kai**
She just made friends! Two of them!
**[11:17] Futou**
Kai.
**[11:18] Futou**
That's not a kimono. It's a jinbei.
**[11:21] Ramu**
Aren't you cold?
**[11:23] Kai**
Yeah, but I'm fine.
**[11:25] Kai**
Let's hurry up and pay our respects.
**[11:31] Kai**
May Bocchi not cry too much!
**[11:45] Nako**
Origami right at the start
of the new semester?
**[11:47] Sotoka**
Training never ends, after all.
**[11:52] Sotoka**
Oh, Master.
**[11:53] Peko**
Oh, Hitori-chan.
**[11:55] Peko**
Morning.
**[11:56] Ito**
Morning, Hitori-chan.
**[11:58] Bocchi**
M-M-Morning,
**[12:00] Bocchi**
Peko-chan! Ito-chan!
**[12:02] Both**
Morning!
**[12:09] Bocchi**
Morning, Nako-chan.
**[12:11] Nako**
Did you go eat your pancakes?
**[12:13] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[12:13] Bocchi**
Oh, not yet.
**[12:17] Sotoka**
This isn't right.
**[12:17] Sotoka**
This isn't right.
**[12:18] Sotoka**
This isn't right!
**[12:22] Sotoka**
Aru, Aru, Aru, Aru, Aru, Aru!
**[12:26] Aru**
Wh-What, what, what, what, what, what?!
**[12:30] ---**
What?!
**[12:33] Sotoka**
There's something not right going on.
**[12:36] Aru**
Yeah.
**[12:37] Nako**
Why me, too?
**[12:38] Aru**
Who cares? You were free anyway, right?
**[12:41] Aru**
So?
**[12:42] Sotoka**
Master used "chan" with Onaka-san
and Kurie-san when she spoke to them!
**[12:47] Aru**
Well, yeah, they are friends now.
**[12:50] Sotoka**
Yet I'm still just "Sotoka-san"!
**[12:54] Nako**
Well, that's because you're
master and apprentice, right?
**[12:56] Sotoka**
But I've been with Master
way longer than those two have!
**[13:02] Aru**
It might just be habit at this point.
**[13:05] Aru**
Using "san" with you, I mean.
**[13:08] Aru**
Have you told her that you want to be friends?
**[13:12] Nako**
Is being her apprentice that important?
**[13:15] Sotoka**
Well...
**[13:17] Sotoka**
Master said something to me when we met.
**[13:20] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Sotoka-san.
**[13:22] (Flashback) Sotoka**
Yes?
**[13:23] (Flashback) Bocchi**
I'll do my best, okay?
**[13:26] (Flashback) Bocchi**
So once I've passed everything on, then...
**[13:31] (Flashback) Sotoka**
Then...?
**[13:35] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Will you be my friend?
**[13:40] Sotoka**
She hasn't passed everything on yet,
**[13:42] Sotoka**
so I feel like I shouldn't be saying
I want to be her friend.
**[13:47] Aru**
That's all pretty complicated.
**[13:49] Aru**
But what is "everything"?
**[13:52] Sotoka**
I don't really know that answer myself.
**[13:55] Nako**
You don't know?
**[13:57] Aru**
Well, then it's hopeless, isn't it?
**[14:00] Nako**
Hold on. Hold on.
**[14:01] Nako**
This is simply about wanting
to be called "Sotoka-chan," right?
**[14:05] Nako**
Then this isn't that complicated, is it?
**[14:08] Aru**
True.
**[14:10] Aru**
It might be easy enough to get her to call
you Sotoka-chan after doing so for Peko-chan.
**[14:16] Sotoka**
Really?
**[14:18] Aru**
Have you tried chatting with Bocchi?
**[14:20] Sotoka**
Not yet.
**[14:21] Aru**
Well, then try saying something.
**[14:23] Aru**
Have faith in Bocchi!
**[14:26] Nako**
How unfortunate.
**[14:27] Aru**
Don't call me unfortunate!
**[14:30] Sotoka**
You're right.
**[14:32] Sotoka**
It's not right that I'm the
only one she uses "san" with.
**[14:35] Sotoka**
I'm sure Master feels the same way, too.
**[14:44] Sotoka**
Master!
**[14:46] Bocchi**
Oh, Sotoka-san.
**[14:55] Sotoka**
I go home.
**[14:57] Aru**
English?!
**[14:58] Sotoka**
Goodbye, everyone.
**[14:59] Aru**
All right, all right!
**[15:00] Aru**
I'll do something about this!
**[15:02] Nako**
Really?
**[15:03] Aru**
You help out, too!
**[15:06] Aru**
Bocchi.
**[15:09] Aru**
Do you have a moment?
**[15:10] Bocchi**
Aru-chan.
**[15:12] Aru**
Um, you doing well?
**[15:14] Bocchi**
Yeah. And you?
**[15:17] Aru**
I'm doing well.
**[15:18] Bocchi**
Oh right. How's Mieru-san?
**[15:20] Aru**
Mieru?
**[15:24] Aru**
O-Oh, my little sister?
**[15:27] Aru**
Why is she bringing that up right now?
**[15:29] Aru**
Uh, Mieru's gone now.
**[15:33] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[15:34] Aru**
She went somewhere far away,
and we'll never see her again.
**[15:37] Aru**
But that's ultimately for the best.
**[15:39] Bocchi**
Aru-chan...
**[15:43] Aru**
What are you laughing at, Nakosuke?!
**[15:45] Aru**
You too, Bocchi?!
**[15:47] Aru**
Wait, you're crying?!
**[15:48] Aru**
You're making my heart ache!
**[15:50] Nako**
What did you come here to do?
**[15:53] Aru**
Yeah, I know.
**[15:54] Aru**
I know.
**[15:56] Aru**
Listen, it's actually about Sotoka-chan.
**[16:00] Bocchi**
Sotoka-san?
**[16:01] Aru**
Yeah, so Sotoka-chan wants you
to call her "Sotoka-chan."
**[16:10] Nako**
You don't want to?
**[16:11] Bocchi**
No, it's just that Sotoka-san's
my apprentice, not my friend.
**[16:17] Aru**
She's practically a friend already, though.
**[16:19] Nako**
You can be a stickler
for things like that, huh?
**[16:22] Aru**
Sotoka-chan said she wants you
to call her that, though.
**[16:24] Aru**
So it's fine, right?
**[16:26] Bocchi**
I was really happy when you and Nako-chan
called me by my first name.
**[16:33] Bocchi**
So I wanted Sotoka-san to call
me by my name one day, too.
**[16:39] Aru**
Then that's simple.
**[16:42] Aru**
I'll go get Sotoka-chan.
**[16:44] Bocchi**
Aru-chan.
**[16:47] Bocchi**
Thank you.
**[16:51] Aru**
Good grief, both Bocchi and
Sotoka-chan are troublesome.
**[16:56] Nako**
You're the most troublesome one for me.
**[16:59] Nako**
Well, we should go as well.
**[17:02] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[17:03] Nako**
We wouldn't want any
interruptions, after all.
**[17:12] Aru**
Sorry for the wait.
**[17:13] Nako**
You brought her here?
**[17:21] Sotoka**
Master...
**[17:29] Sotoka**
What's that?!
**[17:31] Aru**
Oh, she's forgotten her Japanese,
but don't pay it any mind.
**[17:34] Nako**
No, you should mind that.
**[17:35] Bocchi**
New...
**[17:37] Bocchi**
New shuriken.
**[17:38] Sotoka**
Great!
**[17:44] Bocchi**
If you like,
**[17:46] Bocchi**
let's make new shuriken
together, Sotoka-chan!
**[17:55] Sotoka**
Yeah!
**[17:57] Sotoka**
B-Bocchi-chan.
**[17:59] Aru**
That's not English.
**[18:04] Bocchi**
So...
**[18:07] Bocchi**
It's complete.
**[18:09] Bocchi**
It's finished.
**[18:10] Bocchi**
'Tis finished.
**[18:11] Sotoka**
Incredible.
**[18:12] Sotoka**
Incredible.
**[18:15] Sotoka**
I didn't know there were shuriken like this.
**[18:17] Sotoka**
Like this!
**[18:19] Bocchi**
There're a lot more, too.
**[18:20] Bocchi**
More of them, more... man!
**[18:23] Bocchi**
More to be had.
**[18:25] Bocchi**
So let's gather many kinds of shuriken!
**[18:27] Bocchi**
Gather... forgather.
**[18:30] Sotoka**
Gather them.
**[18:31] Sotoka**
Gather them.
**[18:33] Sotoka**
Gather them, them!
**[18:36] Aru**
Could you be any more awkward?!
**[18:41] Nako**
So why are we back here again?
**[18:44] Aru**
Well, what can we do?
**[18:45] Aru**
Sotoka-chan's still worried about it.
**[18:49] Nako**
You got her to call you "Sotoka-chan," right?
**[18:51] Sotoka**
But now I can't call her Master anymore.
**[18:56] Nako**
Really?
**[18:57] Aru**
Why does it matter?
**[18:58] Aru**
What's wrong with "Bocchi-chan"?
**[19:01] Sotoka**
But...
**[19:02] Nako**
Bocchi said she wants to be your friend
once she passes everything down, right?
**[19:07] Sotoka**
Yes.
**[19:08] Nako**
She's already passed down
all her feelings though,
**[19:10] Nako**
and that's what made you want
to be friends with Bocchi, right?
**[19:15] Sotoka**
Nako.
**[19:19] Sotoka**
Thank you.
**[19:23] Sotoka**
Nako, Aru, I'm going now.
**[19:27] Sotoka**
I'm going to stop being her apprentice!
**[19:30] Aru**
Why are you taking all the good moments?!
**[19:37] Bocchi**
I wonder where everyone went.
**[19:39] Bocchi**
Maybe they all went home and left me behind.
**[19:45] Sotoka**
Master!
**[19:46] Sotoka**
It's super-strong Sotoka!
**[19:49] Bocchi**
Sotoka-chan?
**[19:52] Sotoka**
I'm here to stop being your apprentice.
**[19:54] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[19:55] Bocchi**
Is it because I'm always weak?
**[19:59] Sotoka**
No way!
**[20:00] Sotoka**
The opposite, in fact!
**[20:01] Sotoka**
Because you're strong, Master!
**[20:04] Sotoka**
Master, you brought a smile to Nako's face
when she got failing grades,
**[20:08] Sotoka**
and when Aru tried to go home to change,
you managed to get her to come to school.
**[20:13] Sotoka**
After watching you, Master,
**[20:16] Sotoka**
I'd rather be your friend than be a ninja!
**[20:21] Sotoka**
You've passed everything down to me, Master.
**[20:25] Sotoka**
So I'm here to be certified
as a master and become your friend.
**[20:29] Bocchi**
Sotoka-chan.
**[20:31] Sotoka**
Please open the shuriken.
**[20:45] Sotoka**
I like you more than I like ninja, Master.
**[20:50] Bocchi**
This is...
**[20:52] Sotoka**
Master.
**[20:54] Sotoka**
Please be my friend.
**[21:01] Bocchi**
First...
**[21:02] Sotoka**
Huh?
**[21:04] Bocchi**
That's the first time anyone's
ever asked me to be their friend.
**[21:14] Sotoka**
*So that was how Master and I became friends.*
**[21:26] Bocchi**
Sotoka-cha...-san.
**[21:28] Sotoka**
B-Bocchi.... Master-san.
**[21:31] Bocchi**
Y-You can just call me "Bocchi."
**[21:34] Sotoka**
S-Same to you, Master-san!
**[21:36] Sotoka**
We're friends now.
**[21:39] Aru**
Why are they being so distant now?
**[21:41] Sotoka**
Oh, that's—!
**[21:45] Bocchi**
Yes. I finally finished it.
**[21:47] Bocchi**
Let's try throwing it outside!
**[21:49] Sotoka**
Yes, Master!
**[21:52] Sotoka**
Please wait, Master!
**[21:55] Sotoka**
Master!
**[21:56] Nako**
Seems that things have both
changed and not changed.
**[22:00] Aru**
Well, what does it matter?
**[22:02] Aru**
It's obvious that they're good friends.

**[00:05] Sotoka**
Master!
**[00:06] Sotoka**
Good morning!
**[00:08] Bocchi**
G-Good morning!
**[00:10] Peko**
Oh, Hitori-chan.
**[00:12] Ito**
Morning.
**[00:14] Bocchi**
G-G-Good morning.
**[00:17] Aru**
Morning, Bocchi.
**[00:19] Kako**
Good morning, Hitori-san.
**[00:21] Bocchi**
Aru-chan, Kurai-san, good—
**[00:23] Kako**
Hunched back!
**[00:24] Bocchi**
morning!
**[00:25] Nako**
Busy this morning, I see.
**[00:27] Bocchi**
Oh, Nako-chan, good—
**[00:29] Bocchi**
morning!
**[00:31] Nako**
You still suck at saying "good morning," huh?
**[00:34] Bocchi**
I have more friends to say "good morning" to.
**[00:38] Bocchi**
I'm happy.
**[00:39] Nako**
Poetic.
**[00:41] Bocchi**
Oh, I can't be lingering here!
**[00:43] Bocchi**
I need to chat with Peko-chan and Ito-chan,
so they don't forget me!
**[00:47] Nako**
They're not going to.
**[00:49] Bocchi**
I-I'm Hitori Bocchi!
**[00:51] Peko**
Right.
**[00:52] Peko**
You're Hitori-chan.
**[00:54] Ito**
I'm Kurie.
**[00:55] Bocchi**
Thank goodness. You remember me.
**[01:01] Bocchi**
I-I'm Hitori Bocchi!
**[01:03] Nako**
I won't forget you!
**[01:05] Nako**
Oh, right.
**[01:06] Nako**
I need to speak to Aru-chan
and Sotoka-chan, too.
**[01:08] Nako**
I've never had this many friends before,
so I don't know what to do.
**[01:12] Nako**
You don't need to keep running back
and forth to keep them as friends,
**[01:16] Nako**
so stop worrying.
**[01:18] Bocchi**
But where do I go then...
**[01:20] Nako**
Well, even among friends
there are certain groups.
**[01:24] Nako**
You should go to whichever
group you want to be with.
**[01:28] Nako**
Do you know what I mean by groups?
**[01:34] Bocchi**
They're making CD debuts?
**[01:36] Nako**
How do you jump to that?
**[01:40] Bocchi**
The group I want to be with...
**[01:42] Bocchi**
What do I do?
**[01:44] Sotoka**
Master?
**[01:45] Bocchi**
Sotoka-chan, Nako-chan,
what are group are you in?
**[01:48] Nako**
Sotoka and I are in the same group.
**[01:51] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[01:52] Nako**
Sotoka and I are in the
smartphone tap-tap group.
**[01:55] Bocchi**
Huh?! "Smartphone tap-tap"...
**[01:58] Bocchi**
Has that always been the case?
**[01:59] Nako**
It has.
**[02:00] Nako**
We've always been tap-tapping.
**[02:02] Bocchi**
Wh-What I do to join that group?
**[02:05] Bocchi**
Is it okay to join now?
**[02:08] Nako**
I don't know.
**[02:09] Nako**
For one thing, you use a flip phone.
**[02:12] Bocchi**
Ah!
**[02:15] Bocchi**
I want to join the smartphone tap-tap group.
**[02:18] Bocchi**
I'll try asking my mother!
**[02:22] Sotoka**
Nako, you're being mean.
**[02:27] Nako**
What are you doing?
**[02:29] Sotoka**
Punishing you.

Oh, hello, Mom?
**[04:15] Bocchi**
Listen. This is bad!
**[04:18] Bocchi**
If I don't have a smartphone,
I can't make friends!
**[04:25] Aru**
Bocchi?
**[04:26] Bocchi**
Aru-chan.
**[04:30] Bocchi**
Aru-chan!
**[04:32] Aru**
What is it?
**[04:32] Aru**
What's the matter?
**[04:34] Bocchi**
My mother said I have to wait
until my second year for a smartphone.
**[04:38] Aru**
Flip phones are rare now.
**[04:40] Bocchi**
Aru-chan, are you in the
smartphone tap-tap group, too?
**[04:43] Bocchi**
Are you making your CD debut?
**[04:45] Aru**
Huh? What?
**[04:46] Aru**
You're not making sense.
**[04:49] Aru**
I see. So that's what happened.
**[04:51] Aru**
Good grief, that mean,
feathered-haired Nakosuke.
**[04:55] Aru**
Don't worry.
**[04:56] Aru**
I don't belong to that group.
**[04:59] Bocchi**
Then what group are you in?
**[05:02] Aru**
Well, if I had to say...
**[05:05] Aru**
I'm in the world's class vice president group!
**[05:08] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[05:08] Bocchi**
There are lots of world's
class vice presidents?
**[05:11] Aru**
No, it's only one. Just me.
**[05:14] Bocchi**
Wow!
**[05:16] Aru**
Groups just form on their own.
**[05:19] Aru**
You should just go and be wherever
you're most comfortable, Bocchi.
**[05:22] Bocchi**
Where I'm comfortable...
**[05:26] Aru**
Not there! Not in there!
**[05:31] Bocchi**
I really am most comfortable here.
**[05:34] Sotoka**
Master!
**[05:38] Nako**
Who might you be?
**[05:42] Both**
Nako!
**[05:44] Bocchi**
Oh, Kurai-san.
**[05:47] Bocchi**
Kurai-san, are you joining
the smartphone tap-tap group, too?
**[05:51] Kako**
"Smartphone tap-tap group"?
**[05:53] Bocchi**
Yes.
**[05:54] Bocchi**
I don't own a smartphone yet, though.
**[05:57] Kako**
I don't really understand,
**[06:00] Kako**
but I'm not joining.
**[06:01] Kako**
Groups are just where the weak gather.
**[06:05] Kako**
I'm going to be strong on my own.
**[06:07] Bocchi**
On your own...
**[06:09] Kako**
Besides, in just a couple months,
we won't be first-years anymore.
**[06:13] Kako**
Once we're second-years,
we'll be changing classes, right?
**[06:16] Bocchi**
Changing classes?
**[06:19] Bocchi**
*Changing classes?*
**[06:21] Bocchi**
* When I promised Kai-chan I'd*
* befriend everyone in class,*
**[06:26] Bocchi**
*did that mean the first-year class?*
**[06:29] Bocchi**
*My third-year class?*
**[06:31] Bocchi**
*No, that's not the issue here.*
**[06:34] Bocchi**
*I hadn't thought about this at all.*
**[06:36] Bocchi**
* In just two more months,*
* everyone in class will be separated.*
**[06:41] Bocchi**
*In just two more months...*
**[06:44] Bocchi**
*We face the hell of changing classes!*
**[06:50] Bocchi**
I worked hard during first and second
semesters to make five whole friends.
**[06:54] Bocchi**
Nako-chan,
**[06:56] Bocchi**
Aru-chan,
**[06:57] Bocchi**
Sotoka-chan,
**[06:58] Bocchi**
Peko-chan,
**[06:59] Bocchi**
Ito-chan...
**[07:01] Bocchi**
And yet...
**[07:02] Bocchi**
It's almost time to change classes!
**[07:04] Bocchi**
The hell of changing classes...
**[07:13] Butler**
I've been waiting for you, young lady.
**[07:17] Mayo**
Thank you.
**[07:18] Butler**
I'm just doing my duty.
**[07:21] Mayo**
I mean it. Thank you for doing this.
**[07:25] Mayo**
You always...
**[07:27] Butler**
Young lady, you'll be late for dinner.
***SIGN*** Bocchi's strategies for staying in the same class, even after changing classes!! I won't lose, wahaha!! Plan 1 - Try asking the teacher! (I'm sure she'll understand!) Plan 2 - Break the classroom walls!! (Get the teacher's permission first.) Plan 3 - All of humanity is my friend! So I'll be fine! Fine... Fine...
**[07:40] Mayo**
Did you drop this?
**[07:42] Bocchi**
Oh, y-yes!
**[07:44] Mayo**
Strategies to remain in the same class
through the change in classes...
**[07:48] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[07:50] Mayo**
What unique strategies.
**[07:53] Bocchi**
Th-Tha-Than...
**[07:55] Bocchi**
Thanks, my dude!
**[07:56] Mayo**
What does that mean?
**[07:59] Bocchi**
I-It means thank you very much.
**[08:03] Bocchi**
*I know this girl.*

What a nice ring.
**[08:16] Mayo**
"Thank you" is such a nice phrase as well.
**[08:20] Mayo**
It's my favorite one.
**[08:28] Bocchi**
*I can't run away!*
**[08:29] Mayo**
Why did you move away?
**[08:31] Bocchi**
Oh, um...
**[08:33] Mayo**
Is it because I read that sheet just now?
**[08:37] Bocchi**
I-It's... fine!
**[08:39] Bocchi**
E-Even after we change classes, I want to stay
**[08:44] Bocchi**
with my friends.
**[08:45] Mayo**
I see. So that's been troubling you, then.
**[08:49] Bocchi**
Yes.
**[08:49] Mayo**
Well...
**[08:51] Mayo**
Oh, then couldn't you just buy it?
**[08:55] Bocchi**
Buy it?
**[08:56] Mayo**
Yes. The school.
**[09:00] Mayo**
Would that not work?
**[09:02] Bocchi**
B-But I don't have that kind of money...
**[09:05] Mayo**
Then allow me to introduce you to some work.
**[09:09] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[09:10] Butler**
Young lady, the time.
**[09:12] Mayo**
Hold on.
**[09:14] Mayo**
Do you have some time?
**[09:16] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[09:20] Mayo**
Oh, hello?
**[09:23] Mayo**
Yes, this is her.
**[09:25] Mayo**
Do we have any jobs even
a middle-schooler could do?
**[09:28] Mayo**
Huh?
**[09:29] Mayo**
There are none?
**[09:31] Mayo**
If there are none, then please create some.
**[09:35] Mayo**
Yes, I see.
**[09:38] Mayo**
I've found something for you.
**[09:39] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[09:44] Nako**
A part-time job folding cranes?
**[09:46] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[09:47] Nako**
What are they used for?
**[09:49] Bocchi**
A thousand-crane service.
**[09:52] Nako**
What a shady service...
**[09:54] Nako**
Still...
**[09:55] Mayo**
Onaka-san, good morning.
**[09:57] Peko**
Good morning.
**[09:59] Mayo**
Is there anything troubling you?
**[09:59] Nako**
Um, what kind of person is Ojousa-san?
**[10:01] Peko**
Not really.
**[10:02] Aru**
She's the daughter of some
company president.
**[10:04] Aru**
I hear her parents are
always overseas on business.
**[10:07] Aru**
So she has a lot of servants at home.
**[10:13] Aru**
Sotoka-chan, you make those fast!
**[10:15] Sotoka**
I can make shuriken even faster.
**[10:20] Mayo**
Yes, I've confirmed your delivery.
**[10:23] Mayo**
Now, here is the paycheck you've earned.
**[10:25] Bocchi**
R-Really?
**[10:28] Mayo**
Of course.
***SIGN*** Crane's Return of a Favor

Wow.
**[10:33] Sotoka**
How much? How much is it, Master?
**[10:38] Bocchi**
Five hundred yen!
**[10:40] Mayo**
Now, let us go forth!
**[10:41] Mayo**
To buy this school!
**[10:43] Bocchi**
Right!
**[10:47] Mayo**
By the way, where do we go to purchase it?
**[10:50] Bocchi**
The school store, maybe?
**[10:52] Nako**
No way!
***SIGN*** School Store
**[10:58] Old Lady**
Unfortunately, the school's not for sale.
**[11:00] Mayo**
My, really?
**[11:02] Old Lady**
You certainly can't buy it
here in the school store.
**[11:04] Bocchi**
I see.
**[11:05] Mayo**
Truly?
**[11:07] Nako**
Well, of course not.
**[11:09] Bocchi**
H-How much would it be?
**[11:11] Old Lady**
Who knows? About 10 billion yen?
**[11:13] Bocchi**
Ten billion?!
**[11:15] Bocchi**
I-I'll need to work hard.
**[11:17] Nako**
No, no...
**[11:18] Mayo**
Would five hundred...
**[11:21] Mayo**
hundred million work?
**[11:22] Nako**
Are you a child?!
**[11:24] Mayo**
I'm so sorry, Hitori-san.
**[11:26] Mayo**
It seems the job I found
for you pays very little.
**[11:30] Bocchi**
N-No!
**[11:32] Bocchi**
I'll work even harder,
**[11:34] Bocchi**
so could I continue doing it?
**[11:36] Mayo**
Why, of course.
**[11:38] Mayo**
Let's collect more cranes.
**[11:40] Bocchi**
I-I'll do my best!
**[11:42] Nako**
* If we earn 500 yen a day,*
* then amassing 10 billion would take...*
**[11:47] Nako**
*Uh, uh...*
**[11:51] Nako**
* Well, I don't know how long,*
* but we'll have graduated by then.*
**[11:54] Bocchi**
Well, I'm going to fold a few more.
**[11:58] Mayo**
I'm jealous.
**[12:00] Nako**
Huh?
**[12:01] Mayo**
Every one of you has someone
who is that desperate to stay with you.
**[12:08] Mayo**
I think Hitori-san knows a phrase
more wonderful than "thank you."
**[12:14] Nako**
A wonderful phrase?
**[12:16] Mayo**
Yes. Like "thanks, my dude."
**[12:20] Nako**
*I'm sure she's misunderstood a few things,*
**[12:23] Nako**
*but well, whatever.*
**[12:26] Butler**
Welcome back, young lady.
**[12:33] Mayo**
Butler.
**[12:34] Mayo**
If I said you didn't need to come pick
me up anymore, what would you do?
**[12:39] Butler**
I would honor your request.
**[12:43] Mayo**
I see.
**[12:45] Butler**
But I would feel a little lonely.
**[12:51] Mayo**
Butler...
**[12:54] Mayo**
Thanks my dude, always, always!
**[12:57] Butlers**
Let us depart.

Are we seriously still doing this?
**[13:22] Aru**
Move your hands, not your mouth!
**[13:24] Sotoka**
That's right!
**[13:25] Sotoka**
We're going to make twice as many
as we did yesterday!
**[13:27] Aru**
Wow!
**[13:36] Mayo**
Good afternoon, everyone.
**[13:37] Bocchi**
Oh, Ojousa-san.
**[13:39] Mayo**
Don't mind me. Please continue.
**[13:42] Mayo**
In fact...
**[13:44] Mayo**
Could you teach me as well?
**[13:46] Mayo**
How to fold cranes.
**[13:49] Bocchi**
Y-Yes!
**[13:52] Bocchi**
So you fold this here...
**[13:56] Mayo**
It's done.
**[13:57] Aru**
Oh, it's pretty.
**[13:59] Sotoka**
Way to go, Master.
**[14:00] Sotoka**
You're a genius at teaching others.
**[14:02] Mayo**
So we just need to make many of these?
**[14:05] Bocchi**
Yes.
**[14:06] Mayo**
Oh, right.
**[14:10] Mayo**
This is just a trifle,
but you can all eat it together.
**[14:14] Aru**
Wow, it looks delicious!
**[14:16] Nako**
That trifle looks like
it costs twenty days' wages.
**[14:19] Aru**
Don't nitpick it.
**[14:21] Nako**
I mean...
**[14:22] Nako**
Continuing to do this work isn't going
to help us avoid changing classes, right?
**[14:26] Bocchi**
It won't?
**[14:27] Sotoka**
It won't?
**[14:29] Nako**
Figure it out...
**[14:30] Aru**
Well, at the very least,
it'll be impossible to buy the school.
**[14:34] Bocchi**
Then what do we do?
**[14:36] Sotoka**
Master!
**[14:37] Sotoka**
Even if we end up in different classes,
I'll still come visit you during breaks!
**[14:43] Aru**
Yeah.
**[14:44] Aru**
Even if we end up in different classes,
we can still be together like this.
**[14:49] Mayo**
Um...
**[14:51] Mayo**
To be honest, I tried to use my influence
on the issue of changing classes, but...
**[14:57] Aru**
But?
**[14:59] Mayo**
This school...
**[15:01] Mayo**
doesn't change classes.
**[15:04] Bocchi**
R-Really?
**[15:06] Mayo**
Yes.
**[15:07] Bocchi**
Thank goodness!
**[15:09] Nako**
Then what was all our hard work for?
**[15:12] Aru**
We should have asked Teru-chan.
**[15:14] Sotoka**
Master, can we switch to making shuriken?
**[15:18] Mayo**
Farewell.
**[15:25] Bocchi**
Aru-chan.
**[15:26] Aru**
What?
**[15:26] Bocchi**
Uh, m—
**[15:28] Bocchi**
*I can't just say, "Move."*
**[15:30] Bocchi**
C-Can I jump over you?
**[15:33] Aru**
Why?
**[15:37] Aru**
Oh.
**[15:38] Aru**
Go on. Hurry up.
**[15:42] Bocchi**
O-Ojousa-san!
**[15:45] Bocchi**
Um,
**[15:46] Bocchi**
well...
**[15:47] Bocchi**
Th-Thank you very much!
**[15:51] Mayo**
I'm glad your worry has
been resolved, Hitori-san.
**[15:54] Mayo**
Also, you taught me how to fold cranes,
**[15:58] Mayo**
so th—
**[16:00] Mayo**
tha—
**[16:02] Mayo**
No!
**[16:02] Mayo**
I can't bear it anymore!
**[16:08] Mayo**
I've always wanted to be helpful to others,
**[16:11] Mayo**
to be needed by them.
**[16:14] Mayo**
So when I saw how troubled you were,
I wanted to help you.
**[16:18] Bocchi**
Thank you very much.
**[16:21] Mayo**
It's not what you think.
**[16:22] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[16:23] Mayo**
I...
**[16:25] Mayo**
I knew there wouldn't be a change of classes,
**[16:27] Mayo**
and while I considered telling you all that,
**[16:30] Mayo**
I decided not to, after watching you all.
**[16:34] Bocchi**
You did?
**[16:36] Mayo**
Yes.
**[16:37] Mayo**
If I told you, then our time together
would come to an end.
**[16:41] Mayo**
If I didn't tell you, then perhaps
things could have stayed that way.
**[16:46] Mayo**
That's when I realized it.
**[16:48] Mayo**
I was only meddling in others' business
so I could hide the loneliness I felt.
**[16:55] Bocchi**
Loneliness?
**[16:57] Mayo**
My parents both work abroad,
so I'm always alone when I get home.
**[17:03] Mayo**
And I shouldn't be interrupting their work,
so I can't call them, either.
**[17:07] Mayo**
So I longed to be together with someone.
**[17:10] Bocchi**
Ojousa-san...
**[17:12] Mayo**
I apologize for making you keep me company.
**[17:16] Mayo**
I had fun with you.
**[17:18] Bocchi**
M-Me, too.
**[17:20] Mayo**
I had fun...
**[17:23] Mayo**
So much fun...
**[17:29] Bocchi**
I had fun, too!
**[17:35] Nako**
Bocchi.
**[17:37] Aru**
How did it go?
**[17:39] Bocchi**
I...
**[17:40] Bocchi**
I...
**[17:42] Bocchi**
I want to be friends with Ojousa-san!
**[17:45] Nako**
Wasn't that what you just went to tell her?
**[17:48] Aru**
You've still got a long way to go, Bocchi.
**[17:50] Sotoka**
What are you two saying to Master?!
**[17:54] Mayo**
"Print"? What's a print?
**[17:57] Nako**
Well, a type of photo.
**[17:59] Bocchi**
I want to use my wages from the cranes
to pay for taking one with everyone.
**[18:02] Mayo**
Take one?
**[18:03] Mayo**
They're something you take?
**[18:05] Bocchi**
It's my first time getting one,
so I'm not sure, either.
**[18:08] Mayo**
My.
**[18:09] Nako**
What is this conversation?
**[18:11] Mayo**
Butler, would you mind?
**[18:14] Butler**
As you request.
**[18:18] Nako**
You really are rich.
**[18:23] Mayo**

Wow!

Well, you are bright.

No, no.

*Would you like to beautify your skin?*

*Select your background.*
**[19:09] All three**
Background?
**[19:11] Sotoka**
What does it mean by "background"?

Does it want a background check?
**[19:17] Aru**
Argh! Enough, I'll do it!
**[19:20] Aru**
Once it's finished shooting,
then we add scribbles.
**[19:23] Mayo**
It provides art lessons?!
**[19:25] Aru**
Here, Bocchi.
**[19:26] Aru**
This is the crucial part.
**[19:27] Aru**
So do your best.
**[19:29] Bocchi**
O-Okay.
**[19:31] Bocchi**
*I need to write it out and tell them.*
**[19:34] Mayo**
My, what will you write?
**[19:36] Bocchi**
I'll write... we're all friends.
**[19:39] Aru**
You actually said it, Bocchi!
**[19:41] Bocchi**
Ah! I-I said it!
**[19:44] Nako**
Don't worry about it.
**[19:46] Mayo**
Friends...
**[19:47] Bocchi**
Yeah...
**[19:48] Mayo**
Does that... include me as well?
**[19:54] Bocchi**
I-I couldn't use...
**[19:56] Bocchi**
the wages from our work very well...
**[19:58] Bocchi**
but will you be my friend?
**[20:04] Mayo**
Did you all...
**[20:05] Mayo**
plan this for me?
**[20:13] Mayo**
Yes.
**[20:14] Mayo**
Everyone, it's a pleasure
to make your acquaintance.
**[20:19] Mayo**
We're all friends.
**[20:21] Mayo**
I'll make that my new favorite phrase.
**[20:24] Nako**
Whoa.
**[20:26] Aru**
Figures she'd pass out.
**[20:30] Sotoka**
I'm glad we even got to store it
on our smartphones.
**[20:33] Mayo**
Yes.
**[20:33] Aru**
Mayo-chan,
**[20:34] Aru**
you should send that picture to your parents.
**[20:37] Mayo**
Huh?
**[20:38] Aru**
Bocchi once said before
**[20:40] Aru**
that just having friends was enough
to give her courage.
**[20:44] Mayo**
Hitori-san did?
**[20:46] Aru**
Though the one who said
that is still passed out.
**[20:51] Bocchi**
It's nice to know you, Mayo-chan.
**[20:57] Mayo**
*Father, Mother, it's been some time.*

What is it?

If you take a photo like that,
you'll expose yourself as a ninja.
**[04:46] Sotoka**
Oh! You're right!
**[04:48] Sotoka**
So then, I should act normal...
**[04:52] Sotoka**

Sotoka-chan, let's stop saying "nin nin."

At this point, it won't be fair

Then what is it you want the most?
**[05:36] Aru**
Well...
**[05:38] Aru**
Quiz time.
**[05:39] Aru**
Time for my Aru Aru Quiz.
**[05:42] Aru**
What do you think I want?
**[05:44] Nako**
Oh, Bocchi.
**[05:46] Nako**
We have gym during fifth period today.
**[05:48] Aru**
Don't change the topic!
**[05:50] Aru**
Take part in the quiz!
**[05:52] Aru**
The one who gets it right gets some
of the Honshou family's special karaage.
**[05:57] Sotoka**
Oh, karaage!
**[05:59] Sotoka**
I want karaage!
**[06:01] Sotoka**
I'll try my best!
**[06:03] Sotoka**
Yes! Ding-dong!

Yes, Sotoka-chan!
**[06:07] Sotoka**
Gold bars!
**[06:10] Aru**
"Gold bars"?
**[06:14] Aru**
"Gold bars" is incorrect.
**[06:16] Aru**
Well, I wouldn't mind those either, but...
**[06:18] Sotoka**
I can't think of anything
better than gold bars.
**[06:23] Aru**
Well, you have a point.
**[06:25] Aru**
I can't think of anything
better than gold bars.
**[06:29] Aru**
Gold bars...
**[06:30] Aru**
Gold bars...
**[06:32] Aru**
I'll accept gold bars as correct!
**[06:38] ---**
Yay!
**[06:39] Nako**
*That was the world's least interesting quiz.*

Do you want gold bars as well, Sotoka-chan?

I don't really need money.
**[06:50] Bocchi**

I have a lot of fun learning
ninjutsu from you, Master,

but thanks to you, I also have more friends.

**[07:55] Bocchi**
Oh, Kurai-san.
**[08:00] Bocchi**
Um...
**[08:07] Nako**
Jeez, that Bocchi...
**[08:17] Nako**
What's the matter?
**[08:19] Bocchi**
Something major just happened!
**[08:22] Sotoka**
What is it?
**[08:23] Bocchi**
When I spoke to Kurai-san just now...
**[08:26] Aru**
When you spoke to her?
**[08:28] Bocchi**
This is the major part!
**[08:30] Nako**
Are you sure about adding that build-up?
**[08:34] (Flashback) Bocchi**
Oh, Kurai-san.
**[08:37] Bocchi**
And then...
**[08:41] (Flashback) Kako**
What is it?
**[08:43] Bocchi**
She smiled!
**[08:45] Bocchi**
The Kurai-san we know
**[08:46] Bocchi**
smiled at me!
**[08:48] Bocchi**
This is huge!
**[08:49] Nako**
Bocchi...
**[08:52] Nako**
You're lying, right?
**[08:54] Bocchi**
It's true!
**[08:55] Bocchi**
And we had a fun chat afterward!
**[08:58] Aru**
Kako-chan did?
**[08:59] Nako**
I can't imagine her smiling.
**[09:02] Sotoka**
Master, maybe that just means
you two have grown close?
**[09:06] Nako**
You think?
**[09:10] Nako**
It'll be quicker to see for ourselves.
**[09:12] Aru**
Yeah.
**[09:17] Bocchi**
Um, Kurai-san?
**[09:21] Kako**
Yes?
**[09:24] Nako**
It's true.
**[09:26] Sotoka**
It's hard to believe.
**[09:28] Kako**
What's the matter?
**[09:29] Bocchi**
Huh?! Uh, um...
**[09:32] Bocchi**
A-Are you doing well?
**[09:35] Kako**
Of course. And you?
**[09:37] Bocchi**
Y-Yes! I'm doing well, too!
**[09:40] Nako**
She sounds like an English textbook.
**[09:43] Bocchi**
U-Uh, what are your hobbies?
**[09:46] Nako**
"Hobbies"?
**[09:48] Kako**
Watching movies, I suppose.
**[09:50] Kako**
I'll lend you one I recommend next time.
**[09:54] Bocchi**
Okay.
**[09:55] Nako**
What happened?
**[09:57] Kako**
Pardon me.
**[10:03] Bocchi**
Kurai-san!
**[10:05] Kako**
Yes?
**[10:07] Bocchi**
*I want to chat with Kurai-san even more.*
**[10:11] Bocchi**
What kind of food do you like, Kurai-san?
**[10:14] Kako**
U-Uh...
**[10:15] Bocchi**
What's the first thing
you do when you get home?
**[10:18] Kako**
Uh...
**[10:19] Bocchi**
Which animal would you call yourself?
**[10:22] Kako**
Hitori-san.
**[10:23] Bocchi**
Yes!
**[10:24] Kako**
Can I say something?
**[10:26] Bocchi**
Yes!
**[10:27] Kako**
I want to be alo—
**[10:36] Bocchi**
**[10:39] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[10:48] Nako**
Kurai-san collapsed?
**[10:50] Bocchi**
She's resting in the nurse's office now.
**[10:52] Bocchi**
Apparently, she had a high fever.
**[10:55] Nako**
So that's why she was acting strangely.
**[10:58] Nako**
Good thing you were there for her.
**[10:59] Nako**
It would've been bad
if she'd collapsed by herself.
**[11:02] Bocchi**
It's time to show the fruits of our training!

Training?

Are you okay, Kako-chan?
**[11:19] Kako**
I just got a little dizzy.
**[11:22] Kako**
I'm much better now.
**[11:24] Aru**
That's good.
**[11:25] Kako**
I was trying to hide my inability
to take care of myself,
**[11:28] ---**
but I caused you all trouble.
**[11:31] Kako**
I'm sorry.
**[11:32] Bocchi**
T-Trouble?
**[11:35] Bocchi**
It's no trouble.
**[11:37] Bocchi**
I had a lot of fun.
**[11:40] Kako**
It's no fun talking to a sick person, is it?
**[11:43] Nako**
No, you seemed to be
enjoying it too, Kurai-san.
**[11:48] Kako**
No way.
**[11:49] Nako**
Right?
**[11:50] Bocchi**
Yeah. You were smiling.
**[11:53] Kako**
I don't recall that at all.
**[11:55] Kako**
Please forget that.
**[11:59] Sotoka**
Pardon me.
**[12:01] Sotoka**
They're done!
**[12:04] Nako**
You made them?!
**[12:06] Kako**
Everyone, go back already.
**[12:08] Kako**
You can't be catching this from me.
**[12:10] Bocchi**
Huh? But...
**[12:12] Kako**
I'm fine now.
**[12:15] Aru**
Bocchi.
**[12:18] Bocchi**
All right.
**[12:20] Bocchi**
Then t-take care of yourself.
**[12:26] Nako**
Well, I understand you're worried,
**[12:29] Nako**
but it does seem that things
have settled down a lot.
**[12:31] Sotoka**
Yeah. The nurse is there, too.
**[12:35] Bocchi**
Do you think she'll be able
to attend graduation ceremony?
**[12:38] Nako**
Graduation ceremony?
**[12:40] Nako**
Oh, for the third-years?
**[12:42] Nako**
That's next week, right?
**[12:43] Aru**
Well, it'd be one thing if it were ours,
**[12:46] Aru**
but there's not much
for us first-years to do.
**[12:49] Bocchi**
But that's the last day everyone
in class will be gathered together.
**[13:03] Nako**
Bocchi, she'll see us.

**[13:16] Sotoka**
She seemed to be doing better
than I thought.
**[13:42] Bocchi**
Whew, she didn't notice.
**[13:46] Sotoka**
As expected from you, Master!
**[13:48] Nako**
Of course she noticed us.

This morning she mentioned
lending you a movie, right?
**[14:01] Bocchi**
Oh, right.
**[14:03] Nako**
Kako's a liar.
**[14:05] Bocchi**
Huh? A liar? Kurai-san is?
**[14:09] Nako**
Yeah. She said she didn't
remember any of that.
**[14:12] Bocchi**
M-Maybe she just remembered!
**[14:15] Nako**
I'm not saying it in a mean way!
**[14:18] Bocchi**
Okay!
**[14:20] Bocchi**
I've had my bath,

We have to put them on, she said.

Y-Yeah, but...

What do we do if we stab them?
**[15:25] Nako**
*She could do it.*

Let's train on the way home!

Sotoka-chan, Nako-chan.
**[18:50] Bocchi**
Today I want to go home with all my friends.
**[18:55] Bocchi**
All of us, together.
**[19:00] Nako**
Try asking them, then.
**[19:01] Bocchi**
Yeah.
**[19:03] Bocchi**
Kurai-san.
**[19:05] Bocchi**
U-Um, today, all my friends and I are...
**[19:09] Kako**
I'm not your friend, okay?!
**[19:13] Kako**
Also, just to let you know,
I kept the DVD on purpose.
**[19:16] Kako**
It was to tell you I didn't
really want to lend it to you,
**[19:19] Kako**
and definitely not because I forgot
to put it in the case!
**[19:21] Kako**
So don't get the wrong idea!
**[19:27] Nako**
Well, it's good to have
at least one difficult opponent.
**[19:30] Bocchi**
Opponent?
**[19:31] Bocchi**
Kurai-san's not an enemy.
**[19:33] Nako**
I know.
**[19:37] Nako**
You'll need to keep working hard
once you're a second-year, Bocchi.
**[19:43] (Flashback) Karane**
You'll have even more fun
in your second year.
**[19:47] Bocchi**
Yeah!
**[19:55] Nako**
*There sure are a lot of us.*
**[19:57] Peko**
Times like this call for a pancake party!
**[20:00] Mayo**
That sounds like a wonderful idea.
**[20:02] Bocchi**
I've made six whole friends.
**[20:06] Nako**
Six in one year...
**[20:08] Nako**
*There's twenty-nine in our class,*
**[20:11] ---**
* so how many will she need to make*
* first semester of our second year?*
**[20:14] Nako**
* Well, at any rate,*
* she can't keep going at this pace.*
**[20:18] Nako**
*Though...*
**[20:20] Bocchi**
This is like a dream.
**[20:23] Nako**
Yeah.
**[20:25] Bocchi**
This is all thanks to you
chasing after me, Nako-chan.
**[20:28] Nako**
Huh?
**[20:32] Bocchi**
At the beginning of our first semester,
**[20:36] Bocchi**
I had given up on becoming friends with you.
**[20:40] Bocchi**
But you came chasing after me that day.
**[20:45] Bocchi**
You became my friend.
**[20:48] Bocchi**
Even though you don't like moving.
**[20:50] Nako**
Stop saying I don't like to move.
**[20:52] Bocchi**
Nako-chan.
**[20:53] Nako**
What?
**[20:55] Bocchi**
Thank you for becoming my friend.
**[21:02] Nako**
Then you're treating me to pancakes, right?
**[21:05] Bocchi**
Huh?!
**[21:12] Bocchi**
*I have a best friend.*
**[21:15] Bocchi**
*I'm shy,*
**[21:17] Bocchi**
*I'm not very good at getting close to others,*
**[21:20] Bocchi**
* and I thought I'd rather have no friends*
* than go through those painful motions.*
**[21:25] Bocchi**
*But my one and only best friend...*
**[21:31] Bocchi**
*My best friend proclaimed to me one day*
**[21:35] Bocchi**
*that I couldn't stay the way I was.*
**[21:38] Bocchi**
*She said we wouldn't be friends anymore,*
**[21:40] Bocchi**
*unless I managed to befriend my whole class*
**[21:43] Bocchi**
*by the time I graduated middle school.*
**[21:48] Bocchi**
*That was very hard,*
**[21:50] Bocchi**
*and I thought it was impossible.*
**[21:52] Bocchi**
*I didn't know where to even begin at all,*
**[21:58] Bocchi**
*but...*
**[22:06] Bocchi**
*But...*
**[22:10] Bocchi**
*Maybe...*
**[22:29] Teruyo**
Good morning, everyone!

Today you start your second year!

I'll be your homeroom teacher again this year.
**[22:36] Teruyo**
Unlike how I was your first year though,
I'll be strict!

Teru-chan, stop trying to make
your second-year debut when you're an adult!
**[22:46] Teruyo**
I can't?
**[22:47] Teruyo**
Jeez...
**[22:49] Teruyo**
Well, nothing will be any different then,
**[22:51] Teruyo**
but let's switch gears
and start with introductions.
**[22:55] Bocchi**
Huh?
**[22:56] Teruyo**
Uh, it won't be any fun
to start from the beginning again.
**[23:00] Teruyo**
So since today's the fifth,
we'll start with seat five.
**[23:05] Nako**
Five? I'm four, so...
