**[00:08] [SONG] ---**
When you asked me how I felt about you
**[00:14] [SONG] ---**
I said, "You're okay, I guess."
**[00:20] [SONG] ---**
Wait, are you crying?
**[00:25] [SONG] ---**
Oh!
**[00:26] [SONG] ---**
Now I think you might be cute.
**[00:31] [SONG] ---**
Then you tried to run away
so I grabbed your hand.
**[00:37] [SONG] ---**
And something deep within
my heart began to dance.
**[00:43] [SONG] ---**
I wish there were a textbook for romance.
**[00:49] [SONG] ---**
There are just too many
problems I don't understand.
**[00:55] [SONG] ---**
I wish there were a teacher for romance.
**[01:01] [SONG] ---**
If I add You + Me
**[01:03] [SONG] ---**
Will the answer be "Love"?
**[01:24] ---**
Hey, fancy meeting you up here.
**[01:29] ---**
You've been up here the whole time?
**[01:31] ---**
You'll catch cold.
**[01:34] ---**
Why're...
**[01:37] ---**
You look stupid!
**[01:42] ---**
WHAT is so funny about me!
**[01:44] ---**
I don't know!
**[01:49] ---**
Maybe someone like you is a better match.
**[01:55] ---**
How about we swing round the karaoke
place by the station again?
**[02:01] ---**
Whenever Otani says or does something...
**[02:05] ---**
I either fly to heaven or sink to hell...
**[02:09] ---**
My world has begun to spin around
in circles, with Otani as its axis.
***SIGN*** "Reclaim Your Love! Boost Femininity with True Love Chocolate!!"
**[02:28] ---**
Although...I've already been rejected once.
**[02:32] ---**
So I don't have much
confidence in my prospects.
**[02:40] ---**
I had a hunch you might be crying again.
**[02:44] ---**
Maybe someone like you is a better match.
**[02:49] ---**
What did he mean by that?
***SIGN*** Hope
**[02:51] ---**
When he says things like that...
**[02:52] ---**
How can't I embrace a little hope?
**[02:56] ---**
You really suck!
**[02:59] ---**
Go off and die!
**[03:00] ---**
And why?
**[03:01] ---**
You need to match up the
corners when you staple!
**[03:04] ---**
But they ARE matched up.
**[03:05] ---**
Moron! SHOW me how matched they are!
**[03:07] ---**
Just look at this. They're all messed up.
**[03:10] ---**
Oh, shut up.
**[03:11] ---**
You're starting to sound like
a nagging mother-in-law!
**[03:13] ---**
And you're like a rowdy step-son!
**[03:15] ---**
Ohhh burrrrn. Tell me more.
**[03:17] ---**
Shaddup! I didn't ask you to speak!
**[03:19] ---**
What're they fighting about THIS time?
**[03:22] ---**
Teacher told them to staple together
our handouts for the next class.
**[03:27] ---**
Jeez, all my careful
stapling is going to waste.
**[03:31] ---**
I can't read him.
**[03:34] ---**
I can't read Otani's feelings.
**[03:37] ---**
It's almost as if his heart is a ramen
booth on the other side of a thick fog...
**[03:41] ---**
So hazy.
**[03:44] ---**
Don't you have a more
flowery sounding metaphor?
**[03:46] ---**
Just coming up with that
one took all my power.
***SIGN*** Self-study
**[03:56] ---**
But you guys are really starting
to look like things are going well!
**[03:59] ---**
Seriously?
**[04:00] ---**
Seriously! Just a little more
and you're totally there!
**[04:03] ---**
Totally where?
**[04:05] ---**
At the top of Otani's Risa Ranking Chart!
***SIGN*** Risa Koizumi Ranking
***SIGN*** By Otani
**[04:08] ---**
Like he has one.
**[04:09] ---**
At the very least, you've defeated Kanzaki.
**[04:13] ---**
You really think so?
**[04:14] ---**
Yes! You just need one
big PUSH over the hill!
**[04:17] ---**
And ya know, it's almost Valentine's Day.
**[04:19] ---**
So give him some chocolate...
**[04:22] ---**
Chocolate, eh...
**[04:24] ---**
That's right, I never ended up
giving him chocolate last year.
**[04:31] ---**
No thanks.
**[04:33] ---**
Ah, crap!
**[04:34] ---**
If he says "no thanks" like last year,
**[04:36] ---**
I won't be able to recover this time!
**[04:39] ---**
Don't talk like that, dear.
**[04:41] ---**
Unless you're fine with the other
girls giving him chocolate.
**[04:44] ---**
I don't want that either!
**[04:45] ---**
Right?
**[04:50] ---**
I just can't do it!
**[04:51] ---**
Otani already knows I like him!
**[04:54] ---**
There's nowhere I can run or hide
if I give him true-love chocolate!
**[04:57] ---**
Well, DUH!
**[04:59] ---**
Did ya really think you could fake him
out with "obligatory chocolate" again?
**[05:02] ---**
But it's like asking him out all over again.
**[05:04] ---**
I can't do it.
**[05:05] ---**
No "can't"s. Yes, you CAN!
**[05:10] ---**
But how should I do it?!
**[05:12] ---**
What a lively pair.
**[05:14] ---**
Do they even realize class is in session?
**[05:24] ---**
Hey...
**[05:25] ---**
Hmm?
**[05:27] ---**
Last year on Valentine's Day...did
anyone give you chocolate?
**[05:31] ---**
Sure did.
**[05:32] ---**
Wh-who did?!
**[05:35] ---**
You know...the girls who always
watch basketball practice.
**[05:39] ---**
Those cows...
**[05:41] ---**
It was just obligatory chocolate, though.
**[05:43] ---**
How do you know?
**[05:44] ---**
I just do.
**[05:46] ---**
They've been squealing over
this new guy on the team.
**[05:49] ---**
They completely ignore me now.
**[05:53] ---**
Not like I really care.
**[05:55] ---**
Because I'm sure I'll at least
get chocolate from one person.
**[06:00] ---**
From you, right?
**[06:01] ---**
Wh-what? M-me?
**[06:04] ---**
You're not?
**[06:08] ---**
...You want some?
**[06:10] ---**
I do. So?
**[06:14] ---**
Well, if you INSIST, I
guess I can give ya some...
**[06:19] ---**
Why the smug look on your face!
**[06:22] ---**
Ah, but I've been the
receiver of gifts lately...
**[06:27] ---**
I'll make it up to ya soon.
**[06:33] ---**
He wants chocolate?
**[06:36] ---**
I hope he realizes how much
that's getting my hopes up.
**[06:44] ---**
Bye then.
**[06:45] ---**
See ya.
**[06:46] ---**
Bye!
**[07:00] ---**
Is it just me, or are we
actually making progress?
**[07:14] ---**
If he wants chocolate
from me that must mean...
**[07:19] ---**
Risa.
**[07:21] ---**
Miss Koizumi! Long time no see.
**[07:24] ---**
Haruka! And Seiko!
**[07:26] ---**
What's up? You guys shopping?
**[07:27] ---**
The Home Ec. Club is making
chocolates for Valentine's Day.
**[07:30] ---**
So we're out to buy the ingredients.
**[07:33] ---**
Miss Koizumi, would you like to make
chocolates for Mr. Otani with us?
**[07:38] ---**
If we team up, we can share
the cost of the ingredients.
**[07:41] ---**
You've got a point.
**[07:43] ---**
Then...
**[07:46] ---**
You're giving chocolates
to that little pipsqueak?
**[07:48] ---**
Do I get any?
**[07:49] ---**
Sure. You'll get some.
**[07:51] ---**
That sounded very "not like I care"-ish!
**[07:55] ---**
Oh, please...
**[07:57] ---**
I see no problem.
**[07:58] ---**
Mr. Haruka, your girlfriend
will still give you chocolate.
**[08:01] ---**
You've got a girlfriend?
**[08:03] ---**
Yeah... Seven of them.
**[08:05] ---**
Seven??
**[08:07] ---**
I'm dating many different types of
girls at once to boost my masculinity.
**[08:11] ---**
For the sake of the day when
Risa will finally be mine...
**[08:13] ---**
At least date them one at a time, won't ya?
**[08:15] ---**
I have little life remaining.
**[08:19] ---**
Perhaps only 90 years...
**[08:22] ---**
That's freaking old!
**[08:23] ---**
Miss Koizumi! How are things with Mr. Otani?
**[08:26] ---**
Are you both super in love?
**[08:30] ---**
Well...I guess I haven't
been keeping you updated.
**[08:37] ---**
He rejected you?!
**[08:40] ---**
That's BS!
**[08:41] ---**
Why did he reject you?!
**[08:44] ---**
Well, he said he doesn't see
me as girlfriend material...
**[08:48] ---**
Oh no!
**[08:49] ---**
Don't make me say any more
- I'd rather forget it.
**[08:52] ---**
This can't be!
**[08:53] ---**
That little pipsqueak! I'll suck
him up in a vacuum cleaner!
**[08:57] ---**
Wait a minute, why're ya giving
him chocolate if he rejected you?
**[09:00] ---**
"Rejected you"? Don't remind me.
**[09:02] ---**
But don't I have a point?
**[09:04] ---**
If he rejected you, screw him!
**[09:05] ---**
Why're ya giving him chocolate?
**[09:07] ---**
Because...she still likes him.
**[09:10] ---**
Seiko!
**[09:11] ---**
You of all people would understand
the woes of a woman's heart!
**[09:15] ---**
Oh, I do understand!
**[09:16] ---**
I have a woman's heart!
**[09:18] ---**
Shut up, SEISHIRO.
**[09:19] ---**
That's SEIKO.
**[09:20] ---**
I have a woman's heart!
**[09:21] ---**
I don't need to waste time
understanding a woman's heart.
**[09:24] ---**
Come on, Risa!
**[09:26] ---**
Just give up on that moron!
He doesn't appreciate you!
**[09:31] ---**
Right?
**[09:34] ---**
It's okay.
**[09:35] ---**
I'm prepared to wait until he likes me back.
**[09:39] ---**
And besides, we seem to be making progress.
**[09:41] ---**
- Miss Koizumi!
- Risa!
**[09:43] ---**
Go for it, girl! I'm totally rooting for you!
**[09:46] ---**
Thank you! I will!
**[09:49] ---**
Damn...he's gonna pay. That little pipsqueak!
**[10:01] ---**
That's right.
**[10:02] ---**
I don't mind waiting.
**[10:04] ---**
There's no need to panic.
**[10:06] ---**
He can just gradually become my slave.
**[10:13] ---**
Koizumi.
**[10:14] ---**
Whaaaat?
**[10:15] ---**
Gross!
**[10:16] ---**
Why're ya being so chipper?
**[10:18] ---**
No reason.
**[10:20] ---**
What's up?
**[10:21] ---**
Check this out.
***SIGN*** Sea Monk
***SIGN*** Special Release!!
***SIGN*** "Three Times A Monk"
**[10:23] ---**
You've gotta listen to it.
**[10:23] ---**
This's totally happening.
**[10:24] ---**
For real?!
**[10:25] ---**
Then we must buy it!
**[10:27] ---**
He'll probably also go on tour to promote it.
**[10:30] ---**
You're right...Wow, I'm freaking ecstatic!
**[10:33] ---**
I'm totally going.
**[10:35] ---**
Me too!
**[10:36] ---**
Of course you are.
**[10:38] ---**
Who else would I go see Sea Monk with?
**[10:43] ---**
I see.
**[10:45] ---**
We'd better get our tickets
before they sell out.
**[10:51] ---**
Haruka!
**[11:00] ---**
What's your deal, man?!
**[11:02] ---**
I am Haruka Fukagawa.
**[11:03] ---**
A rather attractive 17 year old.
**[11:05] ---**
I am Risa's childhood friend...
**[11:06] ---**
That's not what I was asking!
**[11:07] ---**
Woah, Haruka, what're you...
**[11:11] ---**
Hey, what's going on here?
**[11:14] ---**
Beats me.
**[11:15] ---**
Hey, little pipsqueak.
**[11:17] ---**
Again, WHAT is your problem?
**[11:19] ---**
I hear you rejected Risa!
**[11:24] ---**
Seriously?!
**[11:24] ---**
Risa likes him?
**[11:26] ---**
Will the comedy duo break up?
**[11:28] ---**
Isn't this a bit?
**[11:29] ---**
Is this for real?
**[11:33] ---**
So come on, spit it out.
**[11:34] ---**
What is it about Risa that repulses you?
**[11:38] ---**
Wait, Haruka...!
**[11:40] ---**
Well...like I said...it's hard to explain...
**[11:44] ---**
Wait, why do I have to
give YOU an explanation?!
**[11:47] ---**
Shut up!
**[11:48] ---**
If you don't want to be with Risa,
then stay the hell away from her!
**[11:51] ---**
Instead of pretending to like
her, toying with her heart--
**[11:54] ---**
What are you, a lady killer?!
**[11:56] ---**
You've got me all wrong, moron!
**[11:58] ---**
Then why did you--
**[11:59] ---**
Haruka!
**[12:01] ---**
That hurt!
**[12:02] ---**
C'mere.
**[12:03] ---**
Ouch, ouch, what'd I do?!
**[12:15] ---**
So he really did reject her.
**[12:17] ---**
The DOG.
**[12:18] ---**
And I thought they were so close.
**[12:20] ---**
I feel sorry for Koizumi!
***SIGN*** Prick
**[12:24] ---**
Um...
**[12:25] ---**
Do something, guys!
**[12:27] ---**
I'm on Team Risa.
**[12:29] ---**
And I'm on Team Nobuko.
**[12:32] ---**
There're no such teams!!
**[12:34] ---**
Seriously...
**[12:36] ---**
Would ya PLEASE stop blurting out stuff?
**[12:38] ---**
But he's horrible.
**[12:40] ---**
In what way?
**[12:41] ---**
He rejected you, but he smiles on
vapidly as if nothing happened.
**[12:45] ---**
There should be a limit to how
thoughtless a person can be.
**[12:47] ---**
I don't care!
**[12:48] ---**
I TOLD Otani to act like nothing happened!
**[12:52] ---**
I told him to just carry on like he used to.
**[12:57] ---**
...But even so...
**[12:58] ---**
I'm fine with it!
**[13:00] ---**
But...
**[13:01] ---**
Stop messing things up! I'm
gonna bite your head off!
**[13:04] ---**
But I was just trying to help...
**[13:07] ---**
Yeah, I get it. Thanks.
**[13:09] ---**
But I don't need your help.
**[13:10] ---**
I've gotta do this on my own.
**[13:13] ---**
Risa...
**[13:14] ---**
So just leave me alone.
**[13:17] ---**
You understand?
**[13:21] ---**
I don't understand!
**[13:22] ---**
Why not?
**[13:24] ---**
Oh, whatever!
**[13:25] ---**
I don't know you anymore!
**[13:28] ---**
Koizumi...
**[13:29] ---**
How brave! What a good girl.
**[13:32] ---**
Otani, you moron!
**[13:33] ---**
How could you reject such a good girl?
**[13:36] ---**
How cruel...you're just too cruel!
**[13:38] ---**
Wait a minute, you jackals!
**[13:40] ---**
Hear me out...
**[13:42] ---**
Don't worry about what Haruka just said.
**[13:47] ---**
Sure...
**[13:52] ---**
We just wanted to say,
we're all Team Koizumi!
**[13:55] ---**
Koizumi FTW!
**[13:57] ---**
FTW!
**[13:58] ---**
W-wait a minute. What's going on here?
**[14:01] ---**
Don't worry.
**[14:02] ---**
Everyone's on your team!
**[14:04] ---**
So venture forth with no regrets!
**[14:06] ---**
Ah, okay...
**[14:08] ---**
I don't really get it, but, I'm doing this.
**[14:31] ---**
Do you think I'm thoughtless?
**[14:35] ---**
Am I a lady killer who toys with hearts?
**[14:39] ---**
You were toying with her?
**[14:40] ---**
Of course I wasn't!
**[14:42] ---**
But what do you think the
situation is REALLY like?
**[14:44] ---**
With Koizumi.
**[14:46] ---**
What do you mean?
**[14:48] ---**
...Do you like her?
**[14:50] ---**
If I had to pick between liking and
disliking, of course I like her.
**[14:54] ---**
Could she be your girlfriend?
**[14:57] ---**
About that...
**[14:59] ---**
It feels weird?
**[15:01] ---**
Really?
**[15:03] ---**
I mean, when you say "girlfriend"...
**[15:06] ---**
That means Koizumi and
I would kiss and stuff.
**[15:20] ---**
You think it's a bit funny, don't'cha.
**[15:23] ---**
Not really.
**[15:24] ---**
You smirked!
**[15:27] ---**
Aw, crap.
**[15:28] ---**
Now I'm sweating.
**[15:30] ---**
Well, if ya ask me, I figured it was only
a matter of time before you two dated.
**[15:35] ---**
Why?
**[15:37] ---**
Because everything you say implies
that you have feelings for her.
**[15:41] ---**
Like when?
**[15:42] ---**
Like after you met with Kanzaki.
**[15:45] ---**
Nobuko told me everything.
**[15:48] ---**
I had a hunch ya might be crying.
**[15:51] ---**
Maybe someone like you is a better match.
**[15:55] ---**
But all I was doing was saying
what I was thinking...
**[15:58] ---**
And also, you asked Koizumi to get
you Valentine's Day chocolate.
**[16:02] ---**
But that was only because I like
chocolate. Don't read into it...
**[16:05] ---**
...Said the natural lady killer.
**[16:08] ---**
Idiot! You're wrong! What made ya say that?
**[16:11] ---**
Just for your information,
**[16:13] ---**
Every little thing you say or do
can really affect Koizumi's mood.
**[16:25] ---**
D...don't scare me like that.
**[16:29] ---**
But it's true.
**[16:34] ---**
Circle up!
**[16:36] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[16:41] ---**
All done!
**[16:53] ---**
I wonder if we made too much?
**[16:55] ---**
Don't worry, it'll be fine!
**[16:59] ---**
I guess Darling is still
at basketball practice.
**[17:02] ---**
It's a day early, but I wanna give him
his chocolate while it's still fresh.
**[17:05] ---**
Risa, wanna bring yours too?
**[17:07] ---**
Hell, yes!
**[17:08] ---**
I'm even gonna gift wrap it!
**[17:10] ---**
You're really gonna go through with this?
**[17:12] ---**
Shut up, you.
**[17:13] ---**
Leave me alone.
**[17:15] ---**
Do I get some?
**[17:16] ---**
Nope.
**[17:17] ---**
Just eat the stuff you made.
**[17:20] ---**
But you promised you'd give me chocolate!
**[17:23] ---**
What's the use in giving that runt chocolate?
**[17:25] ---**
It'll just stunt his growth!
**[17:27] ---**
He needs his nutrients...
**[17:32] ---**
Aw, crap.
**[17:33] ---**
Now I'm nervous.
**[17:35] ---**
I'm gonna go pee...
**[17:48] ---**
Thanks to Haruka, I'm
even more determined now.
**[17:51] ---**
Nowhere to run or hide for me.
**[17:53] ---**
This is honest-to-god true love chocolate.
**[17:57] ---**
You'd better accept it, Otani.
**[17:59] ---**
This chocolate symbolizes my feelings!
**[18:09] ---**
What?
**[18:10] ---**
Why the long pause...
**[18:13] ---**
This... isn't obligatory chocolate, right?
**[18:16] ---**
Right.
**[18:18] ---**
C-can we call it obligatory chocolate?
**[18:23] ---**
What the hell?
**[18:24] ---**
Do you mean you won't accept
it if it's because I like you?
**[18:28] ---**
But you SAID you wanted chocolate!
**[18:31] ---**
Well...I did say that, but...
**[18:35] ---**
So are you saying...you
can't accept my feelings?
**[18:45] ---**
...Yeah.
**[18:50] ---**
Otani!
**[18:51] ---**
Coach is calling you.
**[18:53] ---**
He wants you in the faculty lounge.
**[18:55] ---**
Sorry.
**[18:56] ---**
I've gotta go.
**[18:59] ---**
Wait...
**[19:01] ---**
Sorry, did I intrude?
**[19:03] ---**
Nope.
**[19:11] ---**
Jeez! Hurry!
**[19:14] ---**
Risa, I'm so sorry!
**[19:15] ---**
Darling blabbed to Otani!
**[19:19] ---**
Did I blab?
**[19:25] ---**
"Don't be nice to me if you're not
romantically interested in me."
**[19:28] ---**
I can't say anything cool like that.
**[19:32] ---**
But, even if he's not romantically
interested in me...
**[19:34] ---**
If he's nice to me, then I gain
the strength to persevere!
**[19:45] ---**
That hurt...
**[19:50] ---**
Because I'm a moron!
**[19:57] ---**
Keep it!
**[20:00] ---**
I told you, I can't.
**[20:01] ---**
Why not!
**[20:03] ---**
I can't accept your heartfelt chocolate
when my feelings are half-assed...
**[20:07] ---**
What are you, an extremist?!
**[20:08] ---**
You think this is a heroic gesture?!
**[20:12] ---**
I don't really think you're
a thoughtless lady killer.
**[20:17] ---**
You haven't done anything wrong.
**[20:20] ---**
If anyone's wrong it's me! For not
giving up on you after being rejected.
**[20:25] ---**
So...
**[20:26] ---**
Regardless of whether you like me or hate me,
**[20:28] ---**
I want you to always tell
me what's on your mind!
**[20:35] ---**
Koizumi...
**[20:41] ---**
For starters, do keep that.
**[20:43] ---**
Sorry it's true-love chocolate.
**[20:52] ---**
...Okay.
**[20:54] ---**
Good.
**[20:58] ---**
I don't care how long it takes.
**[21:03] ---**
As long as he falls for
me little by little...
**[21:10] ---**
I never cease to amaze myself - why
do crazy girls always fall for me?
**[21:14] ---**
Hey! What's that supposed to mean?
**[21:16] ---**
I was just telling you what was
on my mind - like you asked.
**[21:19] ---**
Well, I guess I did ask for that...
**[21:22] ---**
Hey.
**[21:24] ---**
Is this your idea of a sick joke?
***SIGN*** Stupid Runt
**[21:27] ---**
Hmph! I swapped them.
**[21:29] ---**
No way was I gonna let that
moron eat Risa's chocolate!
**[21:37] ---**
The Valentine's Day gods must hate me.
**[21:46] [SONG] ---**
On the way home from school, alone
in the park, sitting on our bench,
**[21:53] [SONG] ---**
I noticed you were happier than usual
**[21:58] [SONG] ---**
So I asked you,
**[22:00] [SONG] ---**
"What would you do if the world disappeared?"
**[22:07] [SONG] ---**
Saying nothing, you squeezed
my arm in response.
**[22:16] [SONG] ---**
Please, keep looking at me.
**[22:22] [SONG] ---**
Our lips are too close and
my heart won't stop pounding.
**[22:31] [SONG] ---**
No matter what mood you're in,
I'll accept you for who you are.
**[22:37] [SONG] ---**
And if your heart ever breaks
and tears fall down your cheeks,
**[22:45] [SONG] ---**
I will protect you even if it means
turning the rest of the world against me.
**[22:51] [SONG] ---**
I love you
**[22:53] [SONG] ---**
I don't need words.
**[22:56] [SONG] ---**
You will be my last kiss.
**[23:02] [SONG] ---**
Now and forever.
**[23:20] ---**
Koizumi! You came to my house, didn't ya.
**[23:22] ---**
The two of us. Alone. In Otani's bedroom...
**[23:24] ---**
But I don't feel like doing anything.
**[23:26] ---**
I'll MAKE ya feel like it!
