[01:37] Minami     Shh! There. See? Look at that. [01:40] Akino     What is this anyway? [01:42] Akino     Oh! [01:46] Akino     H-Hey, is that...? [01:49] Minami     Mm-hmm. [01:50] Akino     Shiki and Natsukawa are— [01:50] Minami     Rena-senpai is wearing a kimono! [01:53] Minami     This is so rare!     She looks super adorable in it! [01:56] Akino     Is that what you noticed? [02:02] Akino     They're both in kimonos     dressed to match. It's totally— [02:06] Minami     A date, right? [02:08] Minami     Rena-senpai and Tsubasa. SIGN    Mom     Mii! Emergency!          Tsuba-chi is on a date     with another girl!     Kyaa! (>_<) [02:14] Minami     Mom sent me a message saying     Tsubasa was out with some girl. [02:19] Minami     I asked where, and when I found out it     was Rena-senpai I was like, "oh, my god!" [02:24] Akino     Yeah, but why did you call me? [02:26] Minami     Huh? Hmm. [02:29] Minami     Just because? [02:31] Akino     You don't even know? [02:32] Minami     Huh? I thought you'd be really interested! [02:35] Akino     Well, I guess I am. [02:38] Akino     All right, I might as well play along. [02:41] Minami     That's my girl! [02:42] Akino     Keep it down! [02:44] Akino     Hey, we gotta get going! [02:52] Customer     She's so pretty! [02:54] Tsubasa     I've never been to a place like     this wearing Japanese clothes. [02:57] Tsubasa     It's kind of a weird feeling. [03:02] Natsukawa     Look at that, Shiki-kun! SIGN    Soran Bushi SIGN    Herring     Love [03:05] Natsukawa     Isn't he just the cutest? [03:08] Tsubasa     What is that thing? A bear? [03:11] Natsukawa     It's Melon Kuma-san!     The local mascot for Yubari City. [03:15] Natsukawa     I simply adore this little guy! [03:18] Tsubasa     I didn't realize she was     into stuff like this. [03:21] Natsukawa     There are so many other cuties, too. [03:25] Natsukawa     Aren't they just so adorable? [03:27] Tsubasa     I don't know... [03:28] Tsubasa     They're weird, but I can kind of     see myself warming up to them. [03:32] Tsubasa     In that case, would you     like me to win one for you? [03:35] Natsukawa     Huh? Would you mind? [03:37] Natsukawa     Please do! [03:41] Tsubasa     Aww, no good. [03:43] Natsukawa     That was close. Let's try one     more time. Just one more! [03:47] Tsubasa     Sure. [03:47] Natsukawa     Good luck! [03:49] Tsubasa     I'll get 'em this time! [03:51] Akino     Not just head-on, dummy! You gotta view     from the side to assess the depth, too! [03:55] Akino     Everyone knows that! [03:56] Tsubasa     Aww, no luck again. [03:59] Akino     I can't take this. I have to     go show them how it's done! [04:02] Minami     Sayurin, calm down! Calm down! [04:04] Akino     But I can't just stand by and wat— [04:04] Tsubasa     Oh! I got one! [04:09] Tsubasa     What is that? [04:10] Natsukawa     Wonderful! [04:12] Natsukawa     This little fellow is Kitami City's     local mascot. His name is Mint-kun! [04:16] Tsubasa     Well, he is now my present to you, Senpai. [04:19] Tsubasa     I'm sorry I couldn't get the bear, though. [04:22] Natsukawa     Do you mean it?     Thank you very much! I'm so happy! [04:28] Natsukawa     I promise to you that... [04:30] Natsukawa     I will forever take care of Mint-kun! [04:32] Tsubasa     Th-That's... [04:34] Tsubasa     God-tier purity! [04:36] Natsukawa     I-If it makes you that happy,     then I'm very glad I won it. [04:41] Minami     Tsubasa is really kind, isn't he? [04:43] Minami     He for real tries to do his best     for anyone, no matter who it is. [04:47] Minami     I really respect that, you know? [04:50] Minami     Even now with Rena-senpai,     it's for real. I can tell! [04:54] Minami     He's living in a new place, with people he     doesn't know. That's gotta be hard on him. [04:59] Minami     But he doesn't show it at all. [05:02] Minami     Instead, I see him trying     twice as hard as anyone else. [05:05] Minami     You could say he's, like,     the coolest guy around. [05:09] Minami     I wish... I could be more like that, too. [05:17] Minami     I-I mean, I guess that's probably     what people think, right? [05:20] Minami     Um, so what do you think, Sayurin? [05:23] Minami     Wait, really? [05:25] Akino     Oh, my bad. [05:26] ---      [05:26] Akino     I had to give it a shot after     watching them. You said something? [05:29] Minami     Huh?! [05:31] Tsubasa     It's almost time for that     movie you wanted to see. [05:36] Natsukawa     You're right. I was having     so much fun, I almost forgot. [05:40] Natsukawa     The cinema is on the fourth floor.     Shall we go? [05:44] Minami     Come on, Sayurin! We have to go now! [05:46] Akino     Hold on. I need some bags     for the stuff I won. [05:50] Minami     Sayurin! [05:55] Minami     Aww! Tsubasa and Senpai already left! [05:58] Akino     I'll give you half of my winnings,     so don't be mad, okay? [06:00] Minami     Really? [06:02] Minami     Hooray! Thank you! [06:04] Akino     You're so easy, lol. [06:07] Minami     It sounded like they were going to a movie. [06:10] Akino     There's actually an anime movie     out that I wanted to see. [06:12] Minami     Oh? M'kay, why don't we go see that? [06:15] Akino     Seriously? Thanks! [06:17] Natsukawa     I'm looking forward to the film! [06:20] Tsubasa     Yeah. [06:20] Tsubasa     The purity radiates from her body like light! [06:45] Tsubasa     It's all about someone struggling     to establish her career. [06:49] Tsubasa     Seems like Senpai. [06:58] Heroine     Understood. [07:01] Heroine     What do I have to do to prove myself?     To finally earn their honest praise? [07:06] Heroine     Will I always have to measure myself     against other people's expectations? [07:13] Tsubasa     Uh, I feel so sorry for her. [07:15] Tsubasa     But I bet she'll start to     turn everything around now. [07:23] Tsubasa     Is Senpai... crying? [07:30] Tsubasa     That was really good, wasn't it? [07:32] Tsubasa     That scene at the end when she picks herself     up and is finally recognized by everyone [07:36] Tsubasa     worldwide gave me such a good feeling.     I thought it was really moving! [07:39] Natsukawa     I started crying halfway through the movie! [07:45] Tsubasa     Do you cry very easily, Senpai? [07:48] Tsubasa     Oh, no! This is very unusual for me. [07:51] Tsubasa     But I really felt like I identified     with the film's lead character. [07:57] Tsubasa     I also study very hard, I take lessons,     but even when I do well, [08:03] Tsubasa     I rarely get much praise. [08:05] Tsubasa     Huh? So it's the same for you? [08:08] Natsukawa     The same for me? [08:09] Tsubasa     Ah, I mean... I didn't know even people     like you dealt with that kind of stuff. [08:14] Natsukawa     Oh? [08:16] Tsubasa     I went through the same thing for a while. [08:19] Tsubasa     It ended in a fight with my parents,     and I basically ran away here to Hokkaido. [08:23] Natsukawa     You fought? [08:25] Natsukawa     Shiki-kun, are you actually...     an aggressive person? [08:29] Tsubasa     Huh? [08:30] Tsubasa     No, no, I don't think so. [08:32] Tsubasa     But maybe I can be a little     stubborn sometimes. [08:36] Natsukawa     Oh. I see. [08:40] Natsukawa     I'm probably the opposite of that. [08:44] Tsubasa     The opposite? [08:46] Natsukawa     I'm always very conscious     of how others see me. SIGN    Certificate      Highest Honors to      Natsukawa Rena      for Excellence in Calligraphy [08:51] Natsukawa     I feel that if I don't keep     getting better and better, [08:54] Natsukawa     then nobody will appreciate me. SIGN    Every Day a Blessing [09:00] Natsukawa     So sometimes I wonder,     what in the world am I doing here? [09:04] Natsukawa     If nobody appreciated me,     would I just stop entirely? [09:09] Natsukawa     If so, then I wonder... do I even matter? [09:17] Tsubasa     But if that's what inspires you     to succeed, Natsukawa-senpai, [09:22] Tsubasa     doesn't it also have a positive side? [09:25] Tsubasa     You work so hard to earn praise.     I think everyone knows what that feels like. [09:30] Tsubasa     But I don't think many people take it     seriously and actually finish what they start. [09:35] Natsukawa     Well, I'm not— [09:36] Tsubasa     I bet a lot of people see you and think,     "I should try to become my best self, too!" [09:43] Natsukawa     People... see me? [09:45] Tsubasa     Yes! [09:46] Tsubasa     I don't mean to make this about me,     but I know what you mean when you say [09:51] Tsubasa     you aren't sure if you matter. [09:53] Tsubasa     Of course, I'm sure it was a     lot harder for you, though. [09:56] Tsubasa     Anyway, remember the scene when     the lead shouted, "I am who I am"? SIGN    I am who I am... SIGN    I will be myself [10:01] Tsubasa     She realized she couldn't be anybody     but herself. But not in a negative way, [10:04] Tsubasa     a positive one. Wasn't that a great part? [10:09] Natsukawa     Yes. That was my favorite scene. [10:12] Tsubasa     Mine, too. [10:17] Natsukawa     I suppose we do have some...     things in common, don't we? [10:21] Natsukawa     Our circumstances, our troubles and such. [10:24] Natsukawa     And we are next-door neighbors. [10:26] Tsubasa     Definitely. And isn't it unusual     that we both own our own kimonos? [10:31] Natsukawa     You know, many people think that I'm strange [10:35] Natsukawa     and I rarely feel that     people truly understand me. [10:38] Natsukawa     So I'm very happy to have met you, Shiki-kun! [10:42] Tsubasa     Uh, I'm really happy that     I met you, too, Senpai! [10:47] Tsubasa     After spending the day together     and talking and stuff, [10:49] Tsubasa     I want to know even more about you! [10:55] Natsukawa     Shiki-kun, do... [10:58] Natsukawa     you have a girlfriend or anything? [11:03] Tsubasa     Huh?! [11:05] Natsukawa     I know you're a responsible person,     Shiki-kun, so if you did have a girlfriend, [11:09] Natsukawa     I doubt you'd be out on a date with me. [11:16] Akino     That was great! That director is a god! [11:21] Minami     Huh?! [11:25] Tsubasa     No, I don't. [11:27] Natsukawa     Don't you ever get lonely? [11:29] Tsubasa     Huh? [11:30] Natsukawa     I mean, you just came to Hokkaido     and didn't know anybody [11:33] Natsukawa     so you had to make all new friends.     Wasn't that difficult for you? [11:39] Natsukawa     If I was in your place,     I would be very lonely. [11:43] Tsubasa     You're right. A lot of things     have been difficult for me here. [11:48] Tsubasa     But now, and I know this might sound weird, [11:50] Tsubasa     but I've made some very special friends here [11:53] Tsubasa     who truly accept me for who I am.     So I'm not lonely at all! [12:00] Tsubasa     I also have a senpai who works very hard [12:03] Tsubasa     and is a shining example     for everyone around her. [12:05] Tsubasa     Every day I spend in Hokkaido,     the people around me [12:08] Tsubasa     give me the strength to keep going! [12:14] Natsukawa     I'm very pleased that you are enjoying     Hokkaido, Shiki-kun. That's a relief to hear. [12:18] Tsubasa     I am! Next time, why don't     we all hang out together? [12:22] Natsukawa     Oh? Would that be all right? [12:23] Tsubasa     Of course! [12:24] Minami     I'm in! [12:27] Tsubasa     Fuyuki-san and Akino-san?! [12:29] Akino     H-Hang on! Are you just gonna     blow our cover like that? [12:32] Tsubasa     Cover? [12:33] Minami     What? Were we undercover? [12:35] Akino     Of course we were! [12:36] Tsubasa     You were undercover. [12:39] Tsubasa     Wait! No... were you guys listening to us?! [12:41] Minami     The stuff about us all hanging out, right? [12:44] Minami     But, Tsubasa, not fair! [12:45] Minami     You can't go behind my back and take     Rena-senpai on a date all by yourself! [12:50] Tsubasa     Be-Behind your back? [12:51] Akino     I do apologize for the intrusion! [12:53] Natsukawa     And who might these ladies be? [12:55] Tsubasa     Uh, my classmates Fuyuki-san and Akino-san. [12:58] Minami     The heck was that, Tsuba-cha?! [13:00] Minami     This is when you're supposed to introduce     us as your "important friends," right?! [13:04] Tsubasa     Are you... really? [13:05] Akino     You want to be introduced as "important"? [13:07] Minami     Oh come on, Sayurin! You're one of     Tsuba-cha's important friends, too, aren't you? [13:11] Akino     Huh?! Oh. Uh... okay. [13:15] Tsubasa     Well, I do think you are both     important, but you know... [13:19] Minami     But you know what, exactly? [13:20] Tsubasa     Uh, well, how do I... [13:21] Natsukawa     I see. I believe I understand now. [13:27] Minami     Rena-senpai! Um... [13:30] Minami     I'm in first-year, class 4.     My name is Fuyuki Minami! [13:33] Minami     This is the first time we've spoken, [13:35] Minami     but I've actually really     admired you for a long time. [13:39] Minami     And so... how do I say this... [13:41] Minami     I'm your fan! Please shake my hand! [13:44] Natsukawa     Huh? Y-You mean me? [13:46] Minami     Y-Yes! I mean me! I mean, Rena-senpai! [13:49] Tsubasa     I've never seen either of     them this nervous before. [14:03] Minami     Your hands are so soft, so shapely, so light, [14:07] Minami     everything to your fingertips     is silky smooth! [14:11] Minami     You're a goddess for real! Thank you so much! [14:13] Minami     I will never wash my hands again! [14:15] Natsukawa     I'm very flattered, but you     probably should wash your hands. [14:19] Minami     If you say so, Senpai! I'll wash them     a hundred times! A thousand times! [14:24] Akino     Hey. Chill. You're freaking her out. [14:27] Minami     Huh? Did I say something weird? Huh? [14:32] Minami     Um, Rena-senpai...? [14:35] Minami     Uh, I-I'm really sorry! [14:38] Natsukawa     Oh, no, this is actually quite fun. [14:41] Natsukawa     It is easy to see why Shiki-kun     thinks you're both so important. [14:49] Mai     Hey, you four over there! [14:54] Mai     Hey, you four over there! [14:58] Mai     Yoo-hoo! [14:59] Minami     Mom? [15:01] Tsubasa     Good afternoon! [15:02] Mai     Tsuba-chi, lookin' good!     So are your lady friends. [15:05] Akino     H-Hello. [15:07] Natsukawa     Pleased to meet you. [15:09] Mai     Howdy, howdy! [15:10] Minami     What's up, Mom? You're super cheery today. [15:13] Mai     Actually... [15:15] Mai     I sold a bunch of the clothes     I put up on Merycari, [15:18] Mai     so I got some bonus income! [15:20] Mai     And I thought, since it looks     like the gang's all here, [15:24] Mai     do you all wanna go out to eat yakiniku? [15:26] Tsubasa     Yakiniku?! [15:27] Tsubasa     Um, but does that mean     you're going to treat us? [15:31] Mai     Kitami has the highest number of yakiniku     restaurants per capita in all of Hokkaido! [15:35] Mai     Yeah, it's like someone in Tokyo saying,     "wanna get ramen?" Or maybe— [15:39] Minami     "Wanna get cake?" Kinda like that? [15:41] Akino     Cake and yakiniku is a super     weird comparison, though. [15:45] Mai     But it's all good! You don't need to be shy! [15:48] Mai     Okay? [15:49] Natsukawa     O-Okay! SIGN    Kitami     Yakiniku SIGN    Kitami     Yakiniku SIGN    While others are delicious but costly,      Marusho is delicious and inexpensive.     Marusho     Our staff can't wait to greet you with a smile!

[16:03] Natsukawa     I'll take up position here. [16:05] Mai     Your kimonos are probably going to smell. [16:08] Natsukawa     That's all right. My kimono is washable. [16:11] Mai     Well, at least put the outer haori     in a plastic bag. You, too, Tsuba-chi. [16:15] Tsubasa     Thank you very much. [16:18] Natsukawa     Thank you very much. [16:23] Minami     First one! [16:25] Akino     Huh? Is that even ready? [16:26] Minami     I like it best kinda rare. [16:35] Minami     Super delish! [16:38] Minami     Amay-and-zing! Seriously! [16:40] Minami     The juicy burst of short rib     flavor is filling my mouth! [16:43] Minami     The first bite is all firm, beefy texture,     but then it starts melting in my mouth! [16:48] Natsukawa     I suppose my beef tongue     should be about ready. [16:51] Akino     The fatty pork is probably good to go. [16:56] Natsukawa & Akino     Mmm! Yum! [16:59] Natsukawa     A crispy surface texture combined     with lusciously juicy insides! [17:04] Natsukawa     And crunchy green onions are     a perfect topping for it! [17:08] Akino     There's nothing as richly     flavorful as pork fat! [17:12] Akino     The savory aroma filling my     mouth is almost overwhelming! [17:17] Akino     It's so good! [17:18] Tsubasa     They all make it sound so delicious! [17:22] Mai     Come on, come on. Eat up, Tsuba-chi! [17:24] Tsubasa     O-Okay! [17:25] Mai     The hanger steak here is super good! [17:28] Tsubasa     Hanger steak? What kind of cut is that? [17:31] Minami     Huh? You've never heard of it, Tsubasa? [17:33] Natsukawa     I believe that in Tokyo and elsewhere,     it gets categorized as skirt steak. [17:38] Tsubasa     Oh. So what part is skirt steak? SIGN    Beef Variety Meats SIGN    Tongue SIGN    Heart SIGN    Hanger Steak SIGN    Rumen SIGN    Liver SIGN    Large Intestine SIGN    Tripe SIGN    Skirt Steak SIGN    Small Intestine [17:41] Natsukawa     It's from the diaphragm.     It's a type of variety meat. [17:43] Akino     Oh, no kidding. I always thought     it was just normal beef. [17:48] Tsubasa     I'll help myself to some hanger steak. [17:54] Tsubasa     It isn't fatty at all, but it's super tender! [17:57] Tsubasa     And with such a thick cut,     the succulent, meaty taste spills out [18:01] Tsubasa     with every delicious bite as     if to cheer, "this is the one!" [18:03] Tsubasa     This is true Hokkaido yakiniku! [18:06] Tsubasa     It's too good! No... [18:09] Tsubasa     It's too super delish! [18:12] Minami     Right? [18:14] Mai     Help yourself! Eat up! [18:15] Tsubasa     All right! [18:17] Tsubasa     If this is the quality you get     for a casual yakiniku meal here, [18:21] Tsubasa     Hokkaido is incredible! [18:23] Tsubasa     This beef is so good! [18:26] Tsubasa     When I heard people talk about Hokkaido meat, [18:29] Tsubasa     I always thought they     meant lamb or Jingisukan. [18:31] Tsubasa     Do you eat that at restaurants often? [18:33] Minami     Nah, we don't need to go     to a restaurant for that. [18:36] Tsubasa     Huh? [18:37] Minami     Jingisukan is something     we usually eat at home. [18:39] Akino     Same with my family. We eat it at home. [18:43] Tsubasa     So it is a common home dish, then? [18:46] Tsubasa     I always thought of it as     more of a gourmet dish. [18:47] Mai     Yeah, no way. [18:50] Natsukawa     We even have Jingisukan grills at home. [18:53] Tsubasa     Wow, even grills? [18:55] Akino     Well, it's kind of like     takoyaki grills in Osaka. [18:58] Minami     Yeah! They say every home has to have one. [19:01] Natsukawa     You could make it on a regular     hot plate, too, though. [19:05] Tsubasa     I feel so lucky... [19:08] Tsubasa     to be talking about lamb dishes     with a mouth full of beef! [19:19] Mai     You sure are a lucky guy, aren't you? [19:21] Tsubasa     What do you mean? [19:22] Mai     Come on, Tsuba-chi. [19:24] Mai     Sitting here surrounded by these adorable girls?     You must be in heaven! [19:29] Mai     I mean, check out Sayurin and Rena-chima.     Aren't they both super adorbs? [19:35] Minami     Hold on, Mom.     Why'd you leave me out of that? [19:38] Mai     Well, that's because you're family, Mii. [19:40] Minami     Oh. And Rena-senpai might be     in her own special category. [19:44] Minami     You always get first place in     your class for tests, don't you? [19:47] Mai     First place? Really? [19:49] Natsukawa     Y-Yes, I suppose so. [19:51] Mai     Amazing! [19:53] Akino     Amaze... Wait, how did you know? [19:56] Minami     'Cause I'm her fan! [19:57] Akino     Wow, Senpai. That pretty and smart?     Talk about winning the gene lottery. [20:03] Natsukawa     Oh... [20:05] Natsukawa     No, I simply— [20:06] Minami     You got it all wrong, Sayurin. [20:08] Minami     She works super hard! We just don't see it. [20:11] Minami     I mean, look at her makeup and nails.     That sort of stuff takes effort! [20:14] Minami     And she gets first place because     she studies like crazy! [20:19] Minami     Whenever I see you, Rena-senpai, I think,     "I'm wanna be my best self, too!" [20:26] Akino     You're totally right, Fuyuki. [20:28] Akino     I apologize, Senpai.     That was extremely rude of me. [20:31] Natsukawa     Oh, no. It's all right! [20:33] Mai     That one would've been perfect if     you actually did study harder, Mii. [20:38] Minami     Boo-hoo. [20:39] Akino     Don't mind it, Fuyuki. [20:41] Tsubasa     Senpai. [20:44] Tsubasa     See? People really do     appreciate your efforts. [20:51] Natsukawa     Thank you! [20:53] Mai     Come on, come on, keep 'em coming! [20:57] all     Thank you for the food! [20:59] Mai     You are very welcome! [21:03] Minami     Hey, hey, Tsubasa. Can I ask you something? [21:06] Tsubasa     Huh? [21:06] Minami     Tsubasa, are you and Rena-senpai going out? [21:09] Tsubasa     Huh? No, no, no! Not a chance! [21:12] Minami     Even though you went on a date? [21:14] Tsubasa     Yeah, well, there were     various reasons for that. [21:17] Minami     Hmm? [21:18] Minami     Well, I guess we can call it even. [21:21] Minami     If, in exchange, the next date... [21:24] Minami     is my turn, okay? [21:25] Tsubasa     Huh? [21:27] Minami     We could even spend the night. [21:28] Tsubasa     Wh-Wh-What are you talking about,     Fuyuki-san? That's... no way! [21:33] Minami     I'm just kidding! Kidding! [21:35] Minami     You reacted so hard! Hilarious! [21:37] Tsubasa     What an absolutely demonic joke! [21:40] Minami     Oh. But that part is real. [21:41] Minami     We're going on a date!     It's almost spring break! [21:46] Minami     Hey, guys, listen up!     When it gets warmer, wanna have a barbecue? [21:51] Minami     We can make Jingisukan together! [21:54] Minami     Will you come, too, Rena-senpai? [21:56] Natsukawa     Is it all right if I join? [21:58] Minami     For sure, for sure! [22:00] Natsukawa     I will, then! [22:01] Minami     You're coming, right Sayurin? [22:02] Akino     Well, I do like Jingisukan. [22:05] Minami     All right! Oh, man! It's gonna be great! [22:09] Minami     Right, Tsuba-cha? [22:13] Tsubasa     Mm-hmm! [22:15] Tsubasa     She's right. [22:17] Tsubasa     It's almost spring. [22:19] Tsubasa     Spring in Hokkaido... [22:24] Tsubasa     I'm so excited. I can't wait!
