[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.
