***SIGN*** I want to be paired up with
the guy I like for practice!
***SIGN*** I hope my
baby is
born safely
***SIGN*** Please let me stay
happy and healthy
**[00:35] Akari**
What?!
**[00:37] Shiori**
I-I'm sorry! I tripped and...
**[00:40] Shiori**
Wait...
**[00:43] Shiori**
Watanabe-san?
**[00:46] Jiro**
Watanabe Akari and Sakurazaka Shiori...
**[00:49] Jiro**
I never imagined so many things would
happen between the two of them and me.
**[00:54] Shiori**
Oh! Watanabe-san, are you here about
your partner for the marriage practical?
**[00:58] Akari**
No, I'm not.
**[01:00] Akari**
I'm not!
***SIGN*** "Marriage Practical"
**[01:23] Jiro**
The marriage practical.
**[01:25] Jiro**
An insane part of our high school's
curriculum that's about to begin.
**[01:30] Jiro**
As the name implies,
male-female pairs are chosen
**[01:33] Jiro**
to live together as a mock married couple.
**[01:36] Jiro**
Everyone in class is agitated because of it,
**[01:40] Jiro**
but that's not where my mind is right now.
**[01:44] Jiro**
Just a little more...
**[01:46] Jiro**
Just a little more, and
my bride will be decided!
**[01:50] Jiro**
Come on, Chloris. Chloris!
***SIGN*** Jiro
**[01:55] Jiro**
Yes!
**[01:56] Kamo**
Man, I envy you, Jiro-chan.
**[02:00] Kamo**
Imagine getting excited over a pixel
art character in this day and age.
**[02:03] Jiro**
You've got it all wrong.
**[02:04] Jiro**
The fact that it's pixel art
lets the imagination run free.
**[02:07] Kamo**
Just look at *RotoSaGa*.
7 is out, and it's got 3D views.
**[02:12] Kamo**
Observe the quality of the newest
version of Princess Chloris!
**[02:17] Jiro**
Oh, shut up.
**[02:18] Jiro**
I like the simple innocence
from back when they did 1.
**[02:22] Kamo**
I guess it does make it
easier to imagine things...
**[02:26] Kamon**
But back in 1, you couldn't
pick the heroine, right?
**[02:29] Akari**
Hey.
**[02:33] Akari**
You're in the way.
**[02:43] Kamo**
Watanabe Akari! She smells so nice.
**[02:47] Kamo**
She really is cute.
**[02:48] Jiro**
How, exactly?
**[02:49] Jiro**
The way she talks is so unendearing.
**[02:51] Jiro**
She shows so much skin, it's vulgar.
**[02:52] Jiro**
She treats us social outcasts like idiots.
**[02:54] Jiro**
I never, *ever* want to get
involved with her type!
**[03:07] Akari**
Minami-kun!
**[03:09] Akari**
I saw you!
**[03:10] Jiro**
Tenjin Minami, huh?
**[03:10] Akari**
The newspaper club interviewed
you in the courtyard, right?
**[03:11] Kamo**
I'm a guy, but even I feel like I'll be
purified by his sky-high ikemen level!
**[03:13] Minami**
Oh, that. Yeah.
**[03:14] Natsumi**
It's for the thing they're putting
you on the cover of, right?
**[03:15] Kamo**
And he's a good guy on top of that.
**[03:17] Sachi**
Akari keeps saying they must be
doing a special edition on ikemen.
**[03:18] Jiro**
For us shadow-dwellers,
he's poison. No, he's absolute evil.
**[03:20] Akari**
Wha?!
**[03:20] Minami**
They wouldn't do that.
**[03:22] Akari**
B-But Minami-kun, you're really cool, so...
**[03:26] Minami**
Thanks. It makes me happy to hear that.
**[03:30] Jiro**
She's such an open book.
**[03:32] Jiro**
Talk about a complete 180.
**[03:36] Jiro**
Aw, crap.
**[03:37] Jiro**
Now I've gotta wait to meet my bride.
***SIGN*** Jiro
**[03:44] Shiori**
Jiro-kun.
**[03:45] Jiro**
Huh?
**[03:47] Shiori**
It's finally time for the
marriage practical, huh?
**[03:50] Jiro**
Yeah.
**[03:51] Shiori**
I feel sort of nervous.
**[03:53] Shiroi**
Is it just me?
**[03:55] Jiro**
I'm not good with girls,
so I'm nothing but nerves.
**[03:58] Jiro**
*The only girl I can speak with normally*
**[04:00] Jiro**
*is my childhood friend and first love.*
**[04:03] Jiro**
*They say your first love never comes true,*
**[04:05] Jiro**
* but if things can stay like this*
* between us forever, that's enough.*
**[04:08] Shiori**
I get shy around strangers, so...
**[04:10] Shiori**
I hope I'm paired with someone I know well!
**[04:14] Jiro**
Y-Yeah.

Now, everyone, pay attention.
I'm going to begin the explanation.
**[04:20] Homeroom Teacher**
Starting now, you will each live as a pair
with your partner in the training dorm.
**[04:26] Homeroom Teacher**
It's furnished and has a kitchen,
**[04:27] Homeroom Teacher**
so there's no need to worry

***SIGN*** Practical Points
**[04:37] Homeroom Teacher**
And here is the most important thing...
**[04:42] Homeroom Teacher**
As you are all still students,
your bedrooms are separate.
**[04:46] Homeroom Teacher**
Fingerprint verification ensures that
only the room's occupant may enter.
**[04:56] Homeroom Teacher**
Do not get carried away.
**[04:58] Homeroom Teacher**
Keep yourselves firmly under control.
**[04:58] Jiro**
*What the heck?*
**[05:00] Jiro**
*Why even make us do this, then?*
**[05:00] Homeroom Teacher**
One more thing.
Regarding the A-rank system...
**[05:04] Jiro**
* There are fifteen guys and*
* girls in each of the five classes,*
**[05:04] Homeroom Teacher**
Every month, those ranked in the top
ten according to their grades...
**[05:06] Jiro**
* meaning there's a 1-in-75 chance*
* of being paired with any one person.*
**[05:10] (Flashback) Shiori**
I hope I'm paired with someone I know well!
**[05:13] Jiro**
*That's just a fantasy!*
**[05:14] Jiro**
*I'm her childhood friend!*
**[05:15] Jiro**
* She just finds me easy to talk to*
* because she doesn't see me as a guy!*
**[05:18] Jiro**
*But if we get paired, then maybe...*
**[05:22] Jiro**
*I'll check my luck!*
***SIGN*** Jiro
**[05:23] Jiro**
* If the hero defeats the boss*
* alone with no damage taken,*
**[05:25] Jiro**
*he can take the side route to the heroine.*
**[05:28] Jiro**
* From there, if you go straight*
* through the dungeon...*
***SIGN*** Lancia

*This has now purged all my bad luck.*
**[05:40] Jiro**
*Only good things can happen now.*
**[05:45] Akari**
Why is it you?!
**[05:48] Jiro**
Th-That's kind of what I'd like to ask!
**[05:51] Akari**
What?!
**[05:52] Jiro**
Um, wait just a moment, please.
**[05:53] Jiro**
Let's calm down a bit.
**[05:54] Akari**
Will you quit talking all formal?
It's creeping me out.
**[05:57] Jiro**
S-Sorry. First, could you let me go?
**[06:00] Akari**
Now you're *too* friendly all of a sudden!
**[06:02] Jiro**
You're being unfair.
**[06:05] Akari**
What a buzzkill. This sucks!
**[06:08] Akari**
How'd they come up with this pairing, anyway?
**[06:10] Akari**
It makes no sense at all.
**[06:14] Jiro**
I'm a victim here, too.
**[06:16] Akari**
What was that?!
**[06:18] Jiro**
It-It's just... It seems like you
had a preferred partner in mind,
**[06:22] Jiro**
and I had someone I wanted to be
paired with, too. That's all I meant.
**[06:26] Akari**
It's gotta be Sakurazaka-san, right?
***SIGN*** BULL'S
***SIGN*** EYE
**[06:32] Akari**
You're so easy to read!
How stupid can you be?
**[06:35] Akari**
There's no way she'd ever
give you the time of day.
**[06:38] Jiro**
*I don't want to hear that from you!*
**[06:40] Akari**
I mean, she's a little plain, but she's cute.
**[06:43] Akari**
What're you gonna do?
**[06:44] Akari**
Things might be going really
well for her right now.
**[06:48] Shiroi**
Please, be gentle.
**[06:52] Jiro**
M-M-M-Making such wild speculations
is disrespectful toward her, I feel.
**[06:56] Akari**
Killjoy.
**[06:57] Jiro**
S-So what if I am?
**[07:01] Akari**
Oh, crap!
**[07:03] Akari**
If we don't get along, we lose points!
**[07:05] Jiro**
Then we might get to minus 10,000.
**[07:07] Akari**
Cut the shit!
**[07:09] Akari**
Get along with me!
**[07:10] Akari**
Right now!
**[07:12] Jiro**
But that attitude! That behavior!
**[07:15] Akari**
We'll increase our points, get to
A-rank, and change our pairing!
**[07:19] Jiro**
Ow!
**[07:21] Jiro**
Is that even possible?
**[07:23] Akari**
Didn't you hear the explanation?
I can't believe you.
**[07:27] Akari**
Look at this.

**[07:38] Jiro**
For real?
**[07:39] Akari**
Minami-kun would never be
anything less than A-rank.
**[07:42] Akari**
So let's get that A-rank and switch partners!
**[07:44] Jiro**
Huh? H-Hey, doesn't that mean...
**[07:47] Jiro**
No, wait, wait. Hang on just a sec.
**[07:50] Akari**
What?
**[07:51] Jiro**
Reaching A-rank means... you and I...
**[07:57] Akari**
Dinner's ready.
**[07:59] Jiro**
Looks delicious.
**[08:02] Jiro**
B-But wouldn't that be kinda dangerous?
**[08:08] Akari**
What're you getting all
embarrassed about, Virgin-kun?
**[08:12] Akari**
Even if we do things like this...
**[08:14] Akari**
everything's totally fine!
**[08:16] Jiro**
* H-H-H-H-Her breasts! Breasts!*
* What is this soft yet firm warmth?!*
**[08:20] Akari**
I'll try my very best to be
the perfect wife for you.
**[08:23] Akari**
I'm counting on you.
**[08:24] Jiro**
W-W-Wait, please!
You're really o-okay with a guy like me?
**[08:31] Akari**
Look! It worked!
**[08:33] Akari**
Let's keep it going!
**[08:36] Jiro**
S-S-Sorry! This is my first
time doing anything like this.
**[08:39] Jiro**
I'm thirsty. I'm going to
go buy something to drink.
**[08:42] Akari**
Then I'll have a strawberry milk.
**[08:44] Jiro**
What?
**[08:45] Akari**
We're married!
You'll buy it for me, won't you?
**[08:48] Jiro**
Fine.
**[08:57] Akari**
I just don't want any other
girl to take Minami-kun away.
**[09:01] Akari**
I *have* to try my hardest.
**[09:04] Akari**
This is my first time doing
all of this, too, you know...
**[09:11] Shiori**
Thank you for going along
with my selfish request.
**[09:21] Jiro**
*Seriously?!*
**[09:23] Shiori**
I'm glad I was paired with you, Tenjin-kun.
**[09:26] Minami**
I'm glad it was you, too, Sakurazaka-san.
**[09:28] Minami**
So let's use first names, Shiori.
**[09:30] Shiori**
R-Right, Minami-kun.
**[09:36] Jiro**
*What's with me?*
**[09:37] Jiro**
* I thought I didn't care if anything*
* happened between me and Sakurazaka!*

Don't give me a voiceover!
**[09:56] Jiro**
I'm seriously depressed here.
Please just leave me alone.
**[09:59] Akari**
Well, then...
**[10:01] Akari**
Cheer up.
**[10:04] Jiro**
D-D-Don't make fun of people like that!
**[10:08] Akari**
I'm not making fun of you.
**[10:09] Jiro**
Huh?
**[10:10] Akari**
Come on. Let's actually,
seriously pretend to be married.
**[10:14] Akari**
If we reach A-rank, we'll get a happy ending.
**[10:17] Akari**
And it'll be good practice for the
real thing. What do we have to lose?
**[10:20] Jiro**
The r-real thing? I would never...
**[10:27] Akari**
Being mopey and indecisive
won't get you anywhere.
**[10:33] Akari**
Right?
**[10:36] Jiro**
I can't help it. It's not like I've got the
abundance of experience that you do.
**[10:40] Akari**
What?!
**[10:41] Akari**
That's got nothing to do with anything!
**[10:43] Akari**
When you do something,
you've gotta go all-in!
**[10:46] Akari**
Do you wanna be Virgin-kun forever?
**[10:54] Jiro**
I'll get it.
**[10:56] Jiro**
Hey.
**[10:57] Kamo**
* Jiro-chan, are you free?*
* Wanna go to Aniroad?*
**[10:59] Jiro**
Yeah, I'll go! Let's go now!

That's what's going on,
so I'll see you later.
**[11:04] Akari**
Hang on.
**[11:05] Jiro**
Huh?
**[11:06] Akari**
You're leaving when we have negative points?
**[11:08] Jiro**
Well, what am I supposed to do about it?
**[11:10] Akari**
It's obvious, isn't it?
**[11:12] Akari**
A goodbye kiss.
**[11:15] Jiro**
Do you mean "kisu," the fish
that tastes good as tempura?
**[11:17] Akari**
What?!
**[11:18] Akari**
I'm talking about a goodbye kiss!

Wha?!
**[11:24] Kamo**
Jiro-chan, are you ready yet?

I guess Virgin-kun wouldn't
be able to manage it.
**[11:28] Kamo**
Jiro-chan, aren't you ready yet?
**[11:30] Akari**
You are just a virgin, after all.
**[11:32] Kamo**
Jiro! Get out here now!
**[11:34] Akari**
I guess you'll never have that kind of
relationship, so you can't help it.
**[11:36] Akari**
You two virgins should go have fun together.
**[11:38] Kamo**
Jiro, did you die?! Or are you dead?!
**[11:41] Jiro**
Don't get mad at me later, okay?
**[11:57] Kamo**
What took you so long?
**[11:59] Kamo**
If we were at war, I'd be dead already.
**[12:00] Jiro**
Sorry.

*Crap. I let her rile me up.*

If you don't wake up, I'll give you a kiss!
**[12:29] Jiro**
Then I'm not waking up.
**[12:31] Jiro**
Kiss me.
**[12:35] Shiori**
You really are hopeless. Honestly.
**[12:38] Shiori**
Take that, and that, and that!

What do you mean, "kiss me"?

Get up and come help me get things ready.

Huh? I-It's morning?

*Crap! I fell asleep here last night?*

*No, wait! Shiori's the one I like!*

Move! You're in the way!
**[15:24] Akari**
I might be late today.
**[15:26] Jiro**
Okay... Why?
**[15:28] Akari**
I'm going to karaoke,
and Minami-kun is coming!
**[15:30] Jiro**
Oh, is that so?
**[15:32] Akari**
Later!
**[15:35] Jiro**
Wait! Wait, Watanabe.
**[15:37] Akari**
What is it?
**[15:38] Jiro**
I just remembered. The teacher said
we need to go to the faculty office.
**[15:42] Jiro**
It's about the practical.
**[15:43] Akari**
Oh... I guess we have no choice, then.
**[15:47] Akari**
Take care of it solo, 'kay?
**[15:48] Jiro**
Hey!
**[15:50] Jiro**
You've gotta be kidding me!
**[15:52] Jiro**
This really was the worst day ever.
**[15:54] Kamo**
To hell with that!
**[15:56] Kamo**
Your childhood friend is
the pure, sweet type,
**[15:58] Kamo**
and your mock wife is a hot gyaru?!
**[15:59] Kamo**
You've got a flower in each hand!
**[16:01] Kamo**
Are you the hero of a
harem anime or something?!
**[16:02] Jiro**
Oh, shut up.
**[16:04] Kamo**
I could live on the carbon dioxide
Akari-chan exhales, personally.
**[16:07] Jiro**
If anything, I am carbon dioxide itself.
**[16:10] Kamo**
Huh?
**[16:11] Jiro**
Meaning no one needs me.

Minami-kun, you're super good at this!
**[16:37] Akari**
And your English is so good! I was surprised!
**[16:39] Minami**
Thanks. But there aren't
many songs I can sing.
**[16:40] Natsumi**
My voice is all hoarse already.
**[16:41] Sachi**
Wanna sing together?
**[16:43] Sachi**
Of course you can!
**[16:43] Minami**

Go, Akari!

Oh, this is it! Higashino Kana-chan!

Here.
**[16:48] Natsumi**
Huh? I don't know if I can keep singing.
**[16:49] Minami**
I've heard you sing before. You're good.
**[16:51] Akari**
Really?
**[16:53] Akari**
Then maybe I'll give it my best this time.
**[16:59] Jiro**
This rain just isn't stopping.
**[17:01] Jiro**
It's easy to say to try to be
a happily married couple,
**[17:04] Jiro**
but she's probably off having
fun with her real love interest.
**[17:08] Akari**
Hey, Akari is tired from singing.
**[17:13] Akari**
Why don't we go take a little
breather in the next room?
**[17:16] Jiro**
*What am I thinking?!*
**[17:20] Jiro**
*There's no helping it.*
**[17:21] Jiro**
*I'll just deal with getting wet,*
**[17:22] Jiro**
* buy dinner from a convenience*
* store, and head home.*
**[17:25] Shiori**
Oh? You're still here at school?
**[17:28] Jiro**
Shio— Sakurazaka?!
What are you doing here so late?
**[17:31] Shiori**
We had a committee meeting today.
**[17:33] Shiori**
May I sit next to you?
**[17:34] Jiro**
S-Sure.
**[17:39] Shiori**
This rain isn't letting up, huh?
**[17:41] Jiro**
Do you have an umbrella?
**[17:43] Shiori**
I forgot it!

I-I see.
**[17:49] Shiori**
Eek!
**[17:55] Shiori**
Oh, I was mistaken.
**[17:57] Shiori**
Sorry. I thought there was a bug.
**[17:59] Jiro**
Oh, yeah, it's easy to mistake
that doodle for a bug.
**[18:02] Shiori**
When I got here this morning,
there was a huge one.
**[18:05] Shiori**
I thought it might've come back.
**[18:06] Shiori**
I'm really sorry.
**[18:08] Jiro**
It's fine. I was surprised, that's all.
**[18:10] Jiro**
*Wait, then was that...*
**[18:14] (Flashback) Bug**
Bug!
**[18:16] Jiro**
Hey, Sakurazaka...
**[18:18] Shiori**
I hate that.
**[18:19] Jiro**
Huh?
**[18:20] Shiori**
It makes me feel lonely.
**[18:23] Shiori**
I want you to call me "Shiori" like you used to.
**[18:29] Shiori**
Won't you?
**[18:30] Jiro**
*Wh-What's going on? What's this mean?*
**[18:34] Jiro**
* I don't really get it,*
* but there's one thing I do know...*
**[18:36] Jiro**
*This is the time for me to be brave!*
**[18:40] Jiro**
Sh-Sh-Shio—
**[18:42] Minami**
Shiori.
**[18:44] Akari**
Minami-kun?
**[18:47] Shiori**
But I thought you were going
to be out late doing karaoke.
**[18:52] Minami**
I remembered seeing your collapsible
umbrella in the entryway.
**[18:56] Minami**
Oh, but...
**[18:57] Jiro**
Th-That's great! I'm gonna
try waiting a little longer.
**[19:01] Jiro**
You should go on ahead.
**[19:03] Shiori**
But...
**[19:04] Jiro**
I'll be fine.
**[19:07] Jiro**
See you tomorrow, Sakurazaka.
**[19:11] Shiori**
Yeah.
**[19:32] Akari**
Here.
**[19:35] Akari**
What sort of expression is that?
**[19:41] Akari**
Ugh!
**[19:42] Akari**
What's there to enjoy about
sharing an umbrella with you?
**[19:46] Akari**
And why didn't you go off somewhere with
Sakurazaka-san so it'd be just the two of you?
**[19:51] Akari**
If you had, I'd be sharing an umbrella
with Minami-kun right about now.
**[19:56] Jiro**
Sorry.
**[19:58] Akari**
Do you really have any
intention of snagging that girl?
**[20:02] Jiro**
Sorry.
**[20:05] Akari**
Hey!
**[20:08] Akari**
No giving up!
**[20:10] Akari**
For both my sake and yours.
**[20:13] Akari**
Understand?
**[20:14] Jiro**
Yesh.
**[20:16] Akari**
Very good.
**[20:19] Jiro**
* This is probably Watanabe's way*
* of being considerate of me.*
**[20:23] Jiro**
*I really am such a loser.*
**[20:25] Akari**
Is the rain starting to let up?
**[20:27] Jiro**
It might be.
**[20:28] Akari**
Actually, I'm starving.
**[20:31] Jiro**
Should we drop by a convenience
store for dinner?
**[20:33] Akari**
No.
**[20:37] Akari**
It's fine.
**[20:42] Akari**
Here you go!
**[20:45] Jiro**
*It's real omelet rice!*
**[20:47] Akari**
Looks delicious, doesn't it?
**[20:49] Jiro**
Y-Yeah!
**[20:53] Akari**
Wait!
**[20:54] Akari**
You have to move slowly, okay?
**[20:56] Akari**
You can't let it spurt out too quickly.
**[20:59] Akari**
Oh, not there!
**[21:01] Akari**
Be a little more gentle...
**[21:03] Akari**
Yes, that's so good.

**[21:24] Akari**
I'll have some, too.
**[21:25] Jiro**
Wait!
**[21:29] Jiro**
Here, say "ah."
**[21:35] Akari**
No way. I'm not doing that.
**[21:37] Jiro**
C'mon! Just go with it, please!
**[21:39] Jiro**
This is super embarrassing for me!
**[21:42] Jiro**
Damn it. I'm never doing this again.

**[02:53] Jiro**
Is there really any reason to watch
horror movies so late at night?
**[02:56] Akari**
It's so we can reach A-rank.
**[02:59] Jiro**
Huh?
**[03:00] Akari**
Natsumi told me that
**[03:02] Akari**
if you watch horror movies together,
you can get a lot of points!
**[03:06] Akari**
Huh? Why'd you turn it off?
**[03:09] Jiro**
I just... don't think the
horror plan is gonna work.
**[03:12] Akari**
Stop it!
**[03:13] Jiro**
"Stop it"?
**[03:15] Akari**
We're gonna overcome the fear
together and earn some points!
**[03:18] Akari**
And then we're gonna achieve
A-rank and swap partners!
**[03:22] Akari**
You want to be paired with
Sakurazaka-san, don't you?
**[03:24] Jiro**
Well, yeah, if it's possible.
**[03:26] Akari**
Then to make the plan more effective...
**[03:29] Akari**
Wear this!
**[03:32] Akari**
I bought these at a sale!
**[03:34] Akari**
Twinsies pajamas!
**[03:35] Jiro**
No way! I can't!
**[03:37] Akari**
What? Why?
**[03:38] Jiro**
You have to ask?!
**[03:39] Akari**
It's something married
couples would do, right?
**[03:41] Akari**
Apparently, we can earn
points just by wearing them.
**[03:44] Akari**
And look! If you put them
side-by-side, it makes a heart!
**[03:47] Jiro**
I'm amazed you were able
to buy a design like that.
**[03:49] Akari**
Going overboard in every way
is exactly what we need to do.
**[03:53] Akari**
Come on. Hurry up and put it on.
**[03:55] Jiro**
Really?
**[03:57] Jiro**
* She used her own money*

**[04:00] Jiro**

Face the other way.
I'm going to change.
**[04:21] Jiro**
What?
**[04:22] Jiro**
Here?!
**[04:24] Akari**
I'm changing now.
**[04:28] Jiro**
*Damn it. That's a gyaru for you.*
**[04:30] Jiro**
* No need to hesitate since she*

**[04:33] Jiro**
* Well, if she's gonna be that way,*
* then fine. I'll put it on.*
**[04:36] Jiro**
* She probably doesn't even*

**[04:46] Jiro**
A blackout?

**[05:04] Jiro**
*Wait, this is bad!*
**[05:05] Jiro**
* If I don't move my hips back,*
* my zombie will...*
**[05:09] Jiro**
*Don't beep at me right now, damn it!*
**[05:13] Jiro**
Watanabe?
**[05:15] Jiro**
*She's so scared, and I'm just...*
**[05:19] Jiro**
Sorry. I'll get my cell phone light and—
**[05:21] Akari**
Wait!
**[05:21] Akari**
Not now!
**[05:28] Akari**
Jerk! Don't look at me
when I'm crying, you perv!
**[05:30] Akari**
Yeah, I'm scared! Got a problem with that?!
**[05:32] Akari**
Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!
**[05:34] Jiro**
C-Calm down! I didn't see it!
**[05:36] Jiro**
I barely saw your face at all!
**[05:42] Jiro**
It's not working.
**[05:44] Jiro**
We can't get into our rooms
until the power comes back on.
**[05:48] Akari**
Hey...
**[05:49] Akari**
If you can't fix it, then hurry
up and get back over here.
**[05:53] Jiro**
Yeah, fine.
**[05:56] Jiro**
* She's so scared, and yet*
* she's still bossing me around.*
**[05:59] Jiro**
*She really doesn't think much of me at all.*
**[06:04] Jiro**
*Though...*
**[06:04] Jiro**
* Seeing Watanabe like this is*
* super rare, so I guess it's fine.*
**[06:08] Jiro**
*Also...*
**[06:09] Jiro**
*Why is she pressed up against me?!*
**[06:11] Akari**
Hey, say something fun.
**[06:13] Jiro**
* Here come the unreasonable*
* demands of a party girl!*
**[06:16] Akari**
Come on, don't you have anything?
**[06:18] Akari**
If you can't tell a fun story or two,
girls will never like you.
**[06:22] Jiro**
*This little...*
**[06:24] Akari**
Come on. What's wrong, Killjoy-kun?
**[06:27] Jiro**
Long, long ago, in a far-off land...
**[06:30] Akari**
Seriously? A fairy tale?
**[06:33] Jiro**
There was an old well that even
the elderly couple living nearby
**[06:37] Jiro**
would never, *ever* go near.
**[06:41] Akari**
Hang on...
**[06:42] Jiro**
There was a legend about that old well.
**[06:46] Jiro**
On stormy nights, when thunder
and lightning crash...
**[06:49] Jiro**
There, beside the well,
where no one should be,
**[06:52] Jiro**
stands the ghost of a woman with long hair...
**[06:56] Jiro**
Huh? Watanabe-san? Um...
**[07:00] Jiro**
Why'd you go all quiet?
**[07:02] Jiro**
Are you going to suddenly jump
at me and scream to freak me out?
**[07:05] Jiro**
Wait, you didn't think that
was actually scary, did you?
**[07:08] Akari**
Vermin. Virgin. Go die and let the worms in.
**[07:10] Jiro**
*Her insults rhyme like she's rapping!*
**[07:14] Jiro**
Sorry.
**[07:15] Jiro**
Seeing you scared was just so
unexpected, I couldn't help it.
**[07:19] Akari**
Minami-kun wouldn't have done that.
He'd have been nice to me.
**[07:23] Jiro**
I really am sorry.
**[07:26] Akari**
But you know...
**[07:27] Akari**
There's no one else here right now but you.
**[07:33] Akari**
Would it kill you to let me
depend on you a little? Meanie.
**[07:37] Jiro**
*She's so cu—*
**[07:41] Jiro**
*That was close!*
**[07:42] Jiro**
*What was that?! What is she after?*
**[07:45] Jiro**
*Is she just messing with a virgin?!*
**[07:48] Jiro**
*My face is on fire!*
**[07:50] Jiro**
*It's gotta be bright red right now!*
**[07:52] Jiro**
*I'm so glad it's dark.*
**[07:54] Akari**
Oh! I found it!
**[07:55] Akari**
It's a flameless aromatherapy candle.
**[07:58] Jiro**
Huh?
**[07:59] Akari**
Natsumi gave it to me today.
**[08:03] (Flashback) Natsumi**
For our two-year anniversary
of hanging out together!
**[08:05] (Flashback) Natsumi**
It came in a set of three,
so it was a bargain!
**[08:13] Akari**
Oh, wow! It smells super nice!
**[08:15] Jiro**
Ugh, it's so sweet.
**[08:17] Akari**
I guess guys don't understand
stuff like this.
**[08:32] Jiro**
Watanabe.
**[08:35] Akari**
Yeah?
**[08:43] Jiro**
You're cute.
**[08:49] Jiro**
*What did I just say?*
**[08:52] Jiro**
*I've lost my mind!*
**[08:54] Jiro**
* Did she hear me?*
* She heard me, didn't she?*
**[08:57] Jiro**
*She's asleep! I'm safe!*
**[09:00] Jiro**
Seriously, though, she looks
so cute when she's asleep.
**[09:04] Jiro**
* She tried to watch a horror movie,*
* even though she doesn't like them.*
**[09:07] Jiro**
*Pushing herself so hard must've worn her out.*
**[09:10] Akari**
* Would it kill you to let me*
* depend on you a little?*
**[09:15] Jiro**
* What does it mean to let*
* someone depend on you?*
**[09:18] Jiro**
*What's it mean to be a married couple?*
**[09:21] Jiro**
Goodnight, Watanabe.
**[09:32] Akari**
Stupid. What was all that supposed to mean?
**[09:39] Jiro; Kamo**
Huh?
**[09:39] Kamo**
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

**[09:45] Kamo**
To think that innocent
little boy, Jiro-chan,
**[09:48] Kamo**
and a gyaru of the highest rank are
living as a B-ranked married couple.
**[09:53] Kamo**

**[10:03] Kamo**
When you switch partners,

**[10:08] Kamo**

I couldn't stop worrying about Shiori.
**[10:28] Jiro**
But it wasn't like I could
ask her anything directly.
**[10:31] Jiro**
All I could do was vaguely wonder.
**[10:34] Jiro**
It made me a little happy that things
weren't working out with Tenjin,
**[10:40] Jiro**
but no matter how well we acted
like the perfect married couple,
**[10:42] Jiro**
or how many points we earned...
**[10:44] Jiro**
If Shiori and Tenjin weren't
A-ranked, none of it mattered.

You're really amazing, Mei-chan.

You're good at sports,

I just played it some a
long time ago, that's all.
**[11:11] Mei**
More importantly, are you
feeling a little better?
**[11:15] Shiori**
I thought you might have noticed.
**[11:18] Mei**
Which reason is it?
**[11:19] Mei**
That he's out with a cold?
**[11:21] Mei**
Or is it about your married life?
**[11:24] Shiori**
Well...
**[11:25] Mei**
Both, huh?
**[11:27] Shiori**
When it comes to my married
life, I already know...
**[11:31] Shiori**
that it's my own fault because I'm
not good with people I don't know.
**[11:38] Jiro**
Ugh, this is such a drag.

***SIGN*** You got it
**[11:54] Jiro**
* Shouldn't we be using a day*
* like this to rack up points?*
**[11:58] Jiro**
* If it were Shiori, would she*
* be kind and look after me?*
**[12:06] Shiori**
Say "ah."
**[12:09] Jiro**
*What am I, a middle-schooler?!*
**[12:12] Jiro**
*It's not for real, but we are married.*
**[12:14] Jiro**
* You could come home early for*
* me, couldn't you, Watanabe?*
**[12:20] Jiro**
Huh? For real?
**[12:24] Jiro**
*No. No, no way.*
**[12:27] Jiro**
* Why does this make me*
* feel a little bit happy?*
**[12:31] Jiro**
Y-You're back early, Watanabe...
**[12:33] Shiori**
Oh, good! You're awake!
**[12:36] Shiori**
How's your cold?
**[12:41] Jiro**
Shio—
**[12:42] Jiro**
Sakurazaka?
**[12:45] Server**
Thank you for waiting.
**[12:46] Natsumi**
The pancakes are here!
**[12:48] Natsumi**
They look tasty!
**[12:49] Sachi**
I guess we should dig in.
**[12:52] Sachi**
What's wrong, Akari?
**[12:54] Sachi**
You're the one who said you wanted these.
**[12:57] Akari**
Huh? Oh... Yeah!
**[12:59] Akari**
They look delicious.
**[13:00] Natsumi**
I bet you were thinking
about Minami-kun, right?
**[13:04] Akari**
Huh?
**[13:04] Sachi**
That's pretty much the only thing
Akari thinks about so seriously.
**[13:08] Akari**
Forget about that! Let's just eat, okay?
**[13:10] Akari; Natsumi; Sachi**
Let's eat!
**[13:13] Natsumi**
Hey, did you know? Apparently, these
pancakes are called "a prince's kiss."
**[13:18] Sachi**
What? That's hilarious.
**[13:20] Natsumi**
The texture of the edge is supposed
to be as soft as someone's lips.
**[13:27] Akari**
No, no, no! It's not like that at all!
**[13:30] Sachi**
Akari? Why are you so dead-set on denying it?
**[13:34] Natsumi**
Wait, don't tell me that
after that night at karaoke...
**[13:38] Natsumi**
You and Minami-kun went and did it?
**[13:40] Akari**
O-Of course not.
**[13:44] Akari**
*Ugh... Why am I even thinking about him?*
**[13:48] Jiro**
I was surprised, is all.
I never expected you to come over.
**[13:52] Jiro**
Thanks for buying all this stuff for me.
**[13:56] Shiori**
No, it was Watanabe-san, actually.
**[13:58] Shiori**
She said, "I have stuff to do,
so would you look after Jiro-kun?"
**[14:02] Shiori**
And I was worried, too, so here I am.
**[14:05] Jiro**
Watanabe said that?
**[14:06] Shiori**
Yeah. Should we replace
your forehead compress?
**[14:09] Jiro**
*Thank you, Watanabe!*
**[14:11] Jiro**
*Shiori really came to my room!*
**[14:15] Shiori**
Do you remember back when
we were in elementary school?
**[14:20] Shiori**
When I stayed home with a cold,
**[14:23] Shiori**
you brought me our class handouts.
**[14:26] Shiori**
You changed the cold
compress on my forehead.
**[14:29] Shiori**
It made me so happy!
**[14:33] Jiro**
I-Is that what happened?
**[14:35] Shiori**
All right, I'll put it on.
**[14:36] Shiori**
Give me your forehead.
**[14:39] Jiro**
Uh, s-sure.
**[14:42] Shiori**
Don't move, now.
**[14:45] Jiro**
*Sh-Sh-She's so cute!*
**[14:49] Server**
There. All done.
**[14:50] Jiro**
Th-Thanks.
**[14:52] Shiori**
No problem.
**[14:53] Shiori**
I'm glad to see you're doing
better than I thought.
**[14:56] Shiori**
I'm going to borrow your kitchen, okay?
**[14:58] Jiro**
Sure.
**[15:09] Jiro**
*If she does stuff like this for me...*
**[15:12] Jiro**
*I'm gonna get the wrong idea again.*
**[15:15] Jiro**
*Just like I did back then.*
**[15:17] Jiro**
In the summer of our second
year of middle school,
**[15:19] Jiro**
when Shiori had to change schools because
her dad got transferred at work,
**[15:23] Jiro**
I had intended to confess my feelings to her.
**[15:27] (Flashback) Middle School Jiro**
Oh, so you're transferring
to a private school.
**[15:30] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
Yeah.
**[15:31] (Flashback) Middle School Jiro**
Shiori, I—
**[15:33] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
Say, Jiro-kun...
**[15:34] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
Even if we're apart...
**[15:37] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
Will you always stay my friend?
**[15:43] (Flashback) Middle School Jiro**
Yeah. I will.
**[15:47] (Flashback) Middle School Jiro**
Nothing's gonna change.
**[15:50] Jiro**
I suddenly got scared, so I
chickened out on confessing to her,
**[15:55] Jiro**
but I think it was for the best in the end.
**[15:58] Shiori**
Jiro-kun?
**[16:01] Jiro**
Huh? Oh, sorry! I zoned out...
**[16:04] Shiori**
I made some rice porridge.
Do you think you can eat?
**[16:07] Jiro**
For real?
**[16:08] Shiori**
Yeah.
**[16:08] Jiro**
Yes! I'll eat it! I'll eat it
with tremendous gratitude!
**[16:12] Jiro**
*Oh, man! Shiori's cooking!*
**[16:14] Jiro**
* This is the best thing I've*
* ever tasted in my whole life!*
**[16:17] Shiori**
I'm so glad. It looks like
you're able to eat on your own.
**[16:20] Jiro**
Huh? Uh...
**[16:22] Shiori**
Say "ah"!
**[16:25] Jiro**
* Oh, crap! If I hadn't dug right in,*
* I'd have had the chance for her to feed me.*
**[16:30] Shiori**
Are you all right?
**[16:31] Jiro**
I-It's nothing.
**[16:34] Jiro**
It's so delicious, it's making me cry.
**[16:36] Shiori**
Oh, I'm so glad!
**[16:39] Jiro**
Thanks for the porridge.
**[16:40] Shiori**
I'm glad you liked it.
**[16:43] Jiro**
Must be nice to be Tenjin.
**[16:45] Jiro**
He gets to eat your cooking every day.
**[16:48] Shiori**
We take turns doing the cooking.
**[16:50] Shiori**
We rotate every day.
**[16:52] Jiro**
R-Really? Wow, Tenjin can cook, too?
**[16:56] Jiro**
No wonder Watanabe's
always squeeing over him.
**[16:58] Jiro**
My cooking is truly catastrophic,
**[17:01] Jiro**
so I just leave it all to Watanabe.
**[17:04] Jiro**
Despite how she looks,
she's really good at it.
**[17:06] Jiro**
Unexpected, right?
**[17:07] Jiro**
I mean, I do the other housework
to make up for it, though.
**[17:11] Shiori**
That's right.
**[17:13] Shiori**
Everything's going well
between you and her, huh?
**[17:17] Jiro**
Hey, um, Sakurazaka...
**[17:20] Jiro**
I saw your ranking...
**[17:22] Jiro**
and if there's anything
I can do, just say it.
**[17:25] Jiro**
I'll help you.
**[17:28] Jiro**
*Sorry, Shiori.*
**[17:30] Jiro**
* I'm pretending to be a nice guy, when*
* really, this is all for my own sake.*
**[17:35] Jiro**
*Because I want to live with you.*
**[17:38] Shiori**
Thank you, Jiro-kun.
**[17:40] Shiori**
I don't feel comfortable around boys...
**[17:43] Shiori**
I *am* trying,
**[17:46] Shiori**
but when I think about being "married,"
I can't help getting anxious,
**[17:49] Shiori**
and I put distance between us.
**[17:51] Jiro**
I see.
**[17:52] Shiori**
I also think it might have been
better if you were my husband.
**[17:59] Shiori**
Just kidding!
**[18:01] Shiori**
Watanabe-san will be coming
home soon, won't she?
**[18:04] Shiori**
I'll go wash the dishes.
**[18:06] Jiro**
It's okay!
**[18:07] Jiro**
I-I know you can do it!
**[18:09] Jiro**
You can do it, Shiori!
**[18:12] Jiro**
I've been your friend since we were little,
so I can vouch for all your good points!
**[18:16] Jiro**
So have confidence in yourself!
**[18:18] Shiori**
Th-Thank—
**[18:19] Jiro**
Sorry!
**[18:21] Jiro**
*Crap! She was totally weirded out by that!*
**[18:23] Jiro**
* Shiori was really,*
* really weirded out by that!*
**[18:26] Jiro**
* Don't get all excited and*
* lunge at her, you virgin!*
**[18:29] Jiro**
*Oh, I just want to die now.*
**[18:38] Jiro**
*And anyway...*
**[18:39] Jiro**
* Shiori only came here because*
* Watanabe asked her to.*
**[18:44] Jiro**
* And once she gets used to Tenjin,*
* things'll work out between them.*
**[18:47] Jiro**
* Once Shiori stops being*
* against the idea, I'm sure...*
**[18:54] Shiori**
Jiro-kun.
**[18:55] Shiori**
Are you asleep?
**[18:57] Shiori**
You finally called me by
my first name like I asked.
**[19:00] Shiori**
I was so happy my mind went blank.
**[19:04] Shiori**
Say, Jiro-kun...
**[19:08] Shiori**
I...
**[19:14] Sachi**
So did you hear the rumor that
Sakurazaka-san is avoiding Minami-kun?
**[19:20] Natsumi**
I hear she's popular 'cause
she's the pure, sweet type.
**[19:23] Natsumi**
And it seems like she's not
comfortable talking to guys.
**[19:26] Sachi**
But Akarin and Killjoy-kun seem to
be getting along pretty well, right?
**[19:29] Sachi**
Maybe they've already done it.
**[19:31] Natsumi**
No way. Virgin-kun could never go that far.
**[19:35] Natsumi**
I'm more worried about Minami-kun.
**[19:37] Natsumi**
She won't go near him now, but it'll
be dangerous once she's used to him.
**[19:40] Natsumi**
Sakurazaka-san's cute, after all.
**[19:42] Natsumi**
If she makes a move with that face...
**[19:44] Sachi**
Oh...
**[19:45] Natsumi**
What're you gonna do, Akari?
**[19:46] Natsumi**
Your husband's gonna get taken away.
**[19:49] Akari**
Yeah.
**[19:52] Akari**
Maybe.
**[19:59] Shiori**
I shouldn't... right?
**[20:02] Shiori**
We aren't married, so how could I?
**[20:05] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
Will you always stay my friend?
**[20:09] (Flashback) Middle School Jiro**
Yeah. I will.
**[20:12] (Flashback) Middle School Jiro**
Nothing's gonna change.
**[20:15] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
Oh, I'm so relieved!
**[20:17] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
The place we're moving to
isn't that far away,
**[20:21] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
and I want to come back here sometimes.
**[20:24] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
You know how the Christmas lights around
the train station are really pretty?
**[20:29] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
So I was thinking I'd like to
see them again this year.
**[20:32] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
And, um... if you wouldn't mind, Jiro-kun...
**[20:37] (Flashback) Middle School Jiro**
Shiori...
**[20:37] (Flashback) Middle School Jiro**
Sorry. I just remembered something
I have to do, so I'm gonna go.
**[20:42] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
Sure.
**[20:44] (Flashback) Middle School Shiori**
I'll see you later.
**[20:46] Shiori**
* Back then, I thought "later"*
* would never come.*
**[20:51] Shiori**
*But...*
**[20:53] Shiori**
If I tried my hardest again,
**[20:55] Shiori**
would he hear me out to the end this time?
**[21:03] Akari**
I'm back.
**[21:09] Natsumi**
*What're you gonna do, Akari?*
**[21:11] Natsumi**
*Your husband's gonna get taken away.*
**[21:17] Akari**
Okay!
**[21:18] Jiro**
Watanabe?
**[21:19] Akari**
Where'd you come from?!
**[21:20] Akari**
You scared me!
**[21:22] Jiro**
S-Sorry. Um, I just wanted
to talk for a minute.
**[21:26] Akari**
What do you mean?
Are you feeling better already?
**[21:29] Jiro**
Uh, yeah. Thanks to you.
**[21:32] Jiro**
Shiori—um, Sakurazaka came over
because you asked her to, right?
**[21:39] Akari**
I just thought that Virgin-kun would
need someone to play mama for him.
**[21:44] Jiro**
I'm...
**[21:45] Jiro**
gonna do my best to be
your husband, Watanabe.
**[21:47] Akari**
Huh?
**[21:49] Jiro**
I'll do even more to help you out so that
things work out between you and Tenjin.
**[21:54] Jiro**
For now, even though it was super
brief, I got to live a nice dream.
**[21:58] Jiro**
Thanks.
**[22:00] Jiro**
I'll be going to school tomorrow,
so I'm going to bed now.
**[22:03] Jiro**
Goodnight.
**[22:08] Akari**
Well, that's great, right?
**[22:12] Akari**
So...
**[22:14] Akari**
why do I feel so annoyed about it?
***SIGN*** In this moment when I've deceived you on a cosmic scale
***SIGN*** I want to give love a try
***SIGN*** In this night when everything begins to overflow
***SIGN*** I match my stride to yours
***SIGN*** The clock hands stop, charmed by a fleeting curse
***SIGN*** The answers always slip away
***SIGN*** All I want is to do it over again
***SIGN*** If I did, would this unsettling gloom inside me disappear?
***SIGN*** I want to know where my heart is hiding
***SIGN*** One day this will end
***SIGN*** I know that
***SIGN*** And I know the signs of discord
***SIGN*** Turn them inside out
***SIGN*** Don't let them pile up
***SIGN*** I don't want things to stay unfinished like this
***SIGN*** In this moment when I've deceived you on a cosmic scale
***SIGN*** I want to give love a try
***SIGN*** Everything begins to overflow
***SIGN*** On this day when we don't know how much time is left to us
***SIGN*** I want your thoughts to drift toward me fondly, again and again
**[23:50] Mei**
Sakurazaka Shiori is a pain in the neck.
**[23:53] Mei**
All she does is fret over Yakuin.
**[23:55] Mei**
Why would she ask me anything? I don't care.
**[23:58] Mei**
But when our conversation was done,
her reenergized expression
**[24:02] Mei**
was really cute.
**[24:04] Mei**
So I guess it's all good.

**[00:03] Akari**
So do guys...
**[00:05] Akari**
prefer girls like Sakurazaka-san
who are earnest and family-oriented?
**[00:09] Jiro**
Huh? Where's this coming from?
**[00:12] Akari**
What do they like girls to do for them?
**[00:14] Jiro**
There's no point in asking me, is there?
**[00:17] Akari**
Really? But you said you'd help me, didn't you?
**[00:21] Akari**
If you don't give me answers,
you get nothing but rice.
**[00:24] Jiro**
What?
**[00:26] Akari**
Think about it seriously.
**[00:28] Jiro**
All right. Things guys like
having done for them, huh?
**[00:31] Jiro**
Hmm...
**[00:35] Jiro**
Making them lunch, maybe?
**[00:37] Akari**
Lunch?
**[00:39] Jiro**
Yup. A home-cooked boxed
lunch filled with love.
**[00:42] Akari**
Really?
**[00:44] Jiro**
Especially from you,
since no one would expect it.
**[00:47] Akari**
No one would expect it, you say?
**[00:49] Jiro**
S-Sorry!
**[00:51] Akari**
But that might work!
And you're gonna help me, right?
**[00:55] Jiro**
I am?
***SIGN*** What percentage does "like" have to hit before you can call it "love"?
***SIGN*** It's criminal to be so shy
***SIGN*** Intelligence and wild fancies, tick tock, just pick a mood
***SIGN*** A drizzle from a patch of blue sky
***SIGN*** No less than supreme
***SIGN*** A maiden's heart zigzags, cute and invincible
***SIGN*** The wild ringing of bells
***SIGN*** What percentage does "like" have to hit before you can call it "love"?
***SIGN*** Hold me so tightly that I fall asleep
***SIGN*** A daydream that seems like fiction
***SIGN*** Give me a kiss that breaks the expectant silence of the play
***SIGN*** Give that indecision a tight embrace, too
***SIGN*** My heart hurts and hurts,
***SIGN*** racing unpredictably with joy and excitement
***SIGN*** It's TRUE FOOL LOVE! Hold me tight!
***SIGN*** Be brave, my darling
***SIGN*** It won't all be happy and fun
***SIGN*** It's all up to us
***SIGN*** ONCE MORE SMILE, TWICE MORE CHIME
***SIGN*** Please look my way, darling
***SIGN*** Please notice my pure love for you
**[02:28] Jiro**
And so I began helping Watanabe
with her boxed lunch strategy.
**[02:51] Jiro**
This is a pretty extravagant dinner!
**[02:54] Akari**
I want to choose the lineup
**[02:55] Akari**
for the boxed lunch from among these,
keeping the color variety in mind.
**[03:01] Akari**
How is it?
**[03:04] Jiro**
It's great!
**[03:05] Jiro**
But I think I prefer my rolled omelets sweet.
**[03:09] Akari**
Huh? I'm not asking about
your preferences here.
**[03:12] Akari**
Minami-kun has a mature vibe to him,
**[03:14] Akari**
so rolled omelets with
sugar in them won't work.
**[03:17] Jiro**
Then don't ask me.
**[03:20] Akari**
I'm really proud of the mini hamburger
patties and this ohitashi salad.
**[03:23] Jiro**
Yeah?
**[03:25] Akari**
And I think I might need a
rolled omelet pan after all...
**[03:28] Kamo**
Whoa, what's that? It's not a home-cooked
lunch from Akari-chan, is it?!
**[03:32] Jiro**
Well, yeah.
**[03:34] Kamo**
Seriously, Jiro-chan, you're way too blessed.
**[03:36] Kamo**
It makes me want to ask,
"O gods, have I done something wrong?"
**[03:40] Jiro**
But you guys are doing fine, too.
**[03:42] Kamo**
No way. There's no love there at all.
**[03:44] Kamo**
But in the beginning, I'd get
nervous just eating together.
**[03:48] Hashimoto Marin**
*Morning! I've been waiting for you!*
***SIGN*** Hashimoto Marin
"Morning! I've been waiting for you."
**[03:50] Kamo**
It's already afternoon, though.
**[03:52] Kamo**
Right now, both "good morning" and
"goodnight" are just game functions.
**[03:56] Kamo**
Like collecting login bonuses.
**[03:59] Jiro**
Just be glad you even get bonuses.
**[04:02] Jiro**
What?
**[04:04] Kamo**
I don't want to hear that from
a guy whose relationship chart
**[04:08] Kamo**
looks like it's from an erotic manga.
**[04:10] Kamo**
Hurry up and let that gyaru wife you live
with wreck that factory-fresh unit of yours.
**[04:14] Jiro**
Quit saying such disturbing things!
**[04:16] Kamo**
And there it is!
**[04:18] Kamo**
He's calling the lucky event of graduating
from virgin status "disturbing"!
**[04:22] Kamo**
Are you one of those harem manga leads who,
**[04:24] Kamo**
for some reason, don't yield
even when cornered by beauties?
**[04:27] Kamo**
So, um, how is it really?
**[04:30] Kamo**
D-Does stuff like that happen?
**[04:32] Kamo**
Does it?
**[04:32] Jiro**
No, it doesn't!
***SIGN*** Potato Star
***SIGN*** Lightly Salted
***SIGN*** So delicious you won't
be able to stop!
**[04:34] Jiro**
*She only ever wears skimpy, flimsy clothes.*
**[04:37] Jiro**
* I think I deserve praise for the*
* self-restraint it takes to live with her!*
**[04:42] Akari**
Jiro!
**[04:45] Jiro**
Let's stop talking about this already.
**[04:47] Jiro**
We're eating,
**[04:48] Jiro**
and besides, it'll make things awkward
with Watanabe when I get home.
**[04:52] Akari**
What about me?
**[04:56] Akari**
What about Watanabe?
**[04:58] Kamo**
Uh-oh. How much did you hear?
**[05:01] Jiro**
G-Greetings. How are you this afternoon?
**[05:03] Akari**
Huh?
**[05:04] Jiro**
Uh, nothing. Sorry.
**[05:06] Akari**
So it was something you
feel the need to apologize for?
**[05:09] Jiro**
No, um... W-We were talking
about Tanabe-kun, and, um...
**[05:14] Akari**
So how was the lunch I made?
**[05:17] Jiro**
I-It was really good.
**[05:19] Akari**
Huh? That's it?
**[05:20] Jiro**
Um, the bacon-wrapped
asparagus was awesome.
**[05:23] Akari**
Good, good. What else?
**[05:25] Jiro**
Well...
**[05:27] Jiro**
I really do think I prefer
my rolled omelets sweet.
**[05:30] Akari**
I told you, I don't need
to know *your* preferences.
**[05:33] Jiro**
What? Then don't ask me.
**[05:36] Akari**
There's other stuff you could tell me!
**[05:37] Akari**
Like how it all looked together, or if it
was okay after being in the box so long,
**[05:41] Akari**
or what you thought of the taste!
**[05:42] Jiro**
I told you what I thought of the taste!
**[05:44] Akari**
I need answers that are more useful
as reference, or there's no point!
**[05:48] Kamo**
And now, a tanka...
**[05:50] Kamo**
Standing before me
***SIGN*** Standing before me
They force me to watch as they

Let's find our opponent's weakness.
**[06:19] Jiro**
Morning.
**[06:21] Jiro**
Wow, that's amazing!
**[06:23] Akari**
Right? It's a boxed lunch for Minami-kun!
**[06:26] Akari**
I thought I'd take it to the place
where he works part-time.
**[06:29] Jiro**
Oh, so it's the real test
at last, huh? Sounds good.
**[06:32] Jiro**
S-Sorry. It just looks so
good, I couldn't help it.
**[06:35] Akari**
I'm really proud of today's rolled omelets.
**[06:38] Jiro**
Are you sure? It's for Tenjin, isn't it?
**[06:40] Akari**
It's the end piece. It'll just
end up leftover, anyway.
**[06:51] Jiro**
*Nope, still not sweet.*
**[06:54] Jiro**
* The lunch that my mock wife*
* makes belongs to Tenjin.*
**[06:59] Jiro**
* But Tenjin's wife, Shiori,*
* is the one I have feelings for.*
**[07:03] Jiro**
*There really isn't any sweetness here.*
**[07:11] Akari**
Okay!
**[07:12] Jiro**
Isn't it a little too showy?
**[07:14] Akari**
It's better than looking boring, isn't it?
**[07:17] Jiro**
* How many hours did she spend*
* dressing up to deliver one lunch?*
**[07:21] Jiro**
*She'll be meeting a guy, right?*
**[07:23] Jiro**
*Lots of things are showing.*
**[07:24] Jiro**
*She seems a little... obvious.*
**[07:26] Jiro**
* When she's out with me,*
* she just wears whatever.*
**[07:29] Jiro**
*She's never worn anything like that.*
**[07:31] Akari**
Yakuin?
**[07:35] Akari**
U-Um... I'm gonna do my very best, okay?
**[07:38] Akari**
So...
**[07:42] Akari**
Yakuin...
**[07:46] Akari**
Do the goodbye thing.
**[07:49] Jiro**
Huh?
**[07:52] Akari**
Like you did that other time.
**[07:56] Jiro**
*The "goodbye thing"? She can't mean...*
**[07:59] Akari**
Please, Yakuin?
**[08:00] Jiro**
No, I-I can't! My heart isn't ready!
**[08:03] Akari**
What? You're saying this *now*?
**[08:05] Akari**
You said you'd cheer me on, didn't you?
**[08:07] Jiro**
But you're going out to see Tenjin, right?
**[08:09] Jiro**
Are you sure you want that... from me?
**[08:12] Akari**
Moron.
**[08:13] Akari**
It's yours I want, Yakuin.
**[08:16] Akari**
It made me feel really safe that other time.
**[08:19] Jiro**
Huh?
**[08:22] Jiro**
* If you say something like that*
* with that look on your face...*
**[08:24] Jiro**
*Any guy would get his hopes up!*
**[08:33] Jiro**
I-I'll get it.
**[08:36] Jiro**
Yes?
**[08:39] Jiro**
*Shiori?*
**[08:41] Shiori**
Sorry for showing up unannounced.
**[08:43] Shiori**
I'm so glad the two of you are home!
**[08:45] Jiro**
Nah, I've never got anything to do.
**[08:48] Akari**
He doesn't have many friends, after all.
**[08:52] Shiori**
Oh, I brought apple pies.
I kind of made too many.
**[08:56] Akari**
Really?
**[09:00] Jiro**
You made these?
**[09:02] Akari**
Wow! They look delicious!
**[09:04] Shiori**
Thanks. It was a request from Minami-kun.
**[09:09] Shiori**
Minami-kun seems to like sweet things,
so I made them to suit his tastes.
**[09:13] Shiori**
I hope both of you like them, too.
**[09:15] Jiro**
Really?
**[09:17] Jiro**
Who would've thought, huh?
**[09:20] Shiori**
Oh! How cute!
**[09:23] Shiori**
A boxed lunch? Are you going
on a picnic or something?
**[09:25] Jiro**
No, that's... well, uh...
**[09:29] Akari**
It's really amazing...
**[09:34] Akari**
They look delicious.
**[09:40] Shiori**
*Taking a home-cooked lunch on a picnic?*
**[09:43] Shiori**
*That seems lovely.*
**[09:49] Jiro**
Man, that was good.
**[09:53] Jiro**
Thanks for such a feast.
**[10:02] Jiro**
Come on, cheer up!
**[10:03] Jiro**
Next time, you can go for a time
when Tenjin's by himself. Right?
**[10:07] Akari**
Minami-kun likes sweet things.
**[10:11] Jiro**
That's right! You can research
his favorite foods and—
**[10:13] Akari**
What else do I have?
**[10:16] Jiro**
Huh?
**[10:18] Akari**
After what you said, I thought
I could get by on my cooking.
**[10:25] Jiro**
*Watanabe is always so confident.*
**[10:26] Jiro**
* This is the first time I've*
* seen her so discouraged.*
**[10:29] Jiro**
*She worked so hard.*
**[10:30] Jiro**
* There's nothing to do about it now,*
* but it's throwing me off a bit.*
**[10:34] Jiro**
Watanabe, you've got tons more good points!
**[10:37] Jiro**
You're cheerful and articulate.
**[10:39] Jiro**
You can make friends with anyone.
**[10:41] Jiro**
And the guys all talk about you a lot.
**[10:43] Jiro**
They think you're great.
**[10:45] Akari**
Great how?
**[10:46] Jiro**
Huh?
**[10:47] Akari**
What's great about me?
**[10:49] Jiro**
Um, well, you know...
**[10:50] Jiro**
You're... I guess "sexy" is the word,
and you're b-beautiful...
**[10:53] Jiro**
Y-You have a great figure, and you
make daring fashion choices, so...
**[10:58] Akari**
So?
**[10:59] Jiro**
You know, like... you're every guy's dream,
the object of their desires...
**[11:03] Jiro**
I mean... How do I put it?
**[11:04] Jiro**
Basically, any guy would
want to have se—er, uh...
**[11:10] Jiro**
Wait! That's not what I meant!
It's really not!
**[11:13] Jiro**
It's just, all guys think about
stuff like that, so, um...
**[11:16] Jiro**
It's more... as a woman,
you're very appealing?
**[11:19] Jiro**
You know, like, they have those
celebrity rankings of, um...
**[11:22] Jiro**
I mean, uh...
**[11:24] Akari**
You, too?
**[11:25] Jiro**
Huh? M-Me?
**[11:29] Jiro**
*Me and Watanabe...*
**[11:33] Jiro**
Um, well...
**[11:34] ---**
Zing
**[11:34] ---**
Zing
**[11:35] Jiro**
I-I've never really thought about it.
**[11:42] Akari**
Liar.
**[11:44] Jiro**
Huh? Um...
**[11:54] Akari**
Have you thought of doing
things like this with me?
**[12:04] Akari**
Have you, Yakuin?
**[12:11] Akari**
You've thought about doing things
like this with me, haven't you?
**[12:14] Akari**
How many times?
**[12:17] Akari**
When do you think about it?
**[12:20] Jiro**
Watanabe...
**[12:22] Jiro**
Time out! Hang on!
**[12:26] Akari**
Why? You wanted to try it sometime, didn't you?
**[12:31] Akari**
Go ahead.
**[12:33] Akari**
I'll grant your wish.
**[12:38] Jiro**
*It was for real.*
**[12:39] Jiro**
* Gyaru really are like*
* they are in erotic manga.*
**[12:43] Jiro**
* Is it really okay for me*
* to graduate this easily?*
**[12:51] Jiro**
*Wait... I have this incredibly uneasy feeling.*
**[12:56] Akari**
Yakuin...
**[13:03] Jiro**
We can't!
**[13:06] Jiro**
We can't.
**[13:08] Jiro**
Th-This is...
**[13:09] Jiro**
s-something you do with
someone you love, right?
**[13:14] Jiro**
*Oh, man. It's over.*
**[13:20] Jiro**
*Why did I stop her?*
**[13:21] Jiro**
*It was my chance to graduate!*
**[13:24] Akari**
You didn't want to.
**[13:27] Jiro**
I mean, for one thing, you have Tenjin.
**[13:30] Akari**
And you have Sakurazaka-san.
**[13:34] Akari**
I see.
**[13:36] Jiro**
Watanabe?
**[13:39] Akari**
Let's stop this married couple thing.
**[13:47] Jiro**
And so our married life broke apart.
**[13:54] Jiro**
*Why did things turn out this way?*
**[14:04] Jiro**
We could've just muddled through
this marriage practical thing...
**[14:09] Jiro**
But now, because I overstepped
my bounds and got presumptuous...

Of what?

The month-end evaluation!
**[15:00] Kamo**
Hey, Jiro-chan, what happened?
**[15:03] Kamo**
If there was a reason for it,
it was your fault, right?
**[15:06] Jiro**
What's it matter? Just leave it alone.
**[15:14] Jiro**
I wonder what the right choice would've been.
**[15:18] Jiro**
* At first, I thought she*
* was just making fun of me.*
**[15:21] Jiro**
* I thought that after she made me take her*
* seriously, she'd laugh and call me stupid.*
**[15:26] Jiro**

**[15:28] Jiro**
*was shockingly cold and trembling.*

Hey, Jiro-kun...
**[16:07] Shiori**
Do you have a little time to
talk with me, just the two of us?
**[16:11] Jiro**
Sure.
**[16:12] Kamo**
Are you serious?
**[16:16] Shiori**
Wow!
**[16:18] Shiori**
The breeze feels so nice.
**[16:20] Jiro**
Shiori, is what you wanted to talk about...
**[16:24] Shiori**
Jiro-kun, did something happen
between you and Watanabe-san?
**[16:30] Jiro**
Yeah. You could call it a fight,
**[16:32] Jiro**
or you could say I didn't
express myself well...
**[16:35] Jiro**
I had the wrong idea about her.
**[16:38] Jiro**
But I couldn't find the
right timing to apologize.
**[16:40] Jiro**
And Watanabe doesn't seem
like she wants to talk to me.
**[16:43] Shiori**
Even though you're living together?
**[16:46] Jiro**
Huh?
**[16:47] Shiori**
In a day's time, you're with her
more than you're with anyone else.
**[16:51] Shiori**
I think Watanabe-san will understand you.
**[16:55] Shiori**
I've been your friend since we were
little, so I can vouch for you!
**[17:00] Shiori**
That makes us even, right?
**[17:01] Jiro**
Shiori...
**[17:03] Jiro**
I really don't stand a chance against you.
**[17:06] Jiro**
You've always beaten me
when it comes to discussions.
**[17:10] Shiori**
I'm very much still your
childhood friend, after all.
**[17:14] Shiori**
Ahem!
**[17:17] Jiro**
Still, I was impressed you'd noticed
that something was wrong.
**[17:20] Jiro**
Though, I guess anyone who saw that
month-end evaluation would know.
**[17:29] Shiori**
It makes me feel jealous.
**[17:35] Jiro**
I'm back.
***SIGN*** 600 watts
2 min. 30 sec.
**[17:54] Jiro**
Watanabe, I'd like to talk for a minute...
**[17:57] Jiro**
But, yeah, you're not gonna come out, huh?
**[18:04] Akari**
So come in, then.
**[18:10] Jiro**
*It smells like a girl!*
**[18:16] Jiro**
* I didn't expect her to*
* just ignore my existence.*
**[18:18] Jiro**
S-So, um, I'm sorry about before.
**[18:24] Akari**
It's not like you did anything wrong.
**[18:26] Jiro**
No!
**[18:28] Jiro**
It's all my fault!
**[18:29] Akari**
That was just me trying too
hard and getting nowhere!
**[18:32] Akari**
Don't make me say it all out loud!
**[18:36] Akari**
It's fine, so just forget all of it!
**[18:38] Akari**
Right now!
**[18:40] Jiro**
Look, it seems like you got
the wrong idea, so I'll say this...
**[18:47] Jiro**
It's not like I didn't want to, okay?
**[18:50] Jiro**
I am a guy, after all.
**[18:52] Jiro**
And to tell the truth,
it's just like you said.
**[18:55] Jiro**
I've had wild fantasies
about you more than once.
**[18:58] Jiro**
And, well, I'm actually really grateful
to you for that experience...
**[19:02] Akari**
That's enough!
**[19:04] Akari**
Are you stupid?!
**[19:05] Akari**
Don't say all that! Are you stupid?!
**[19:06] Akari**
It's sexual harassment!
**[19:08] Akari**
You're in a girl's room, and you have zero tact!
**[19:11] Akari**
And that's why you'll never
be able to "graduate"!
**[19:14] Jiro**
Y-You're quite right.
**[19:17] Jiro**
But the reason I stopped you then was...
**[19:19] Jiro**
I just... I don't really know, but...
**[19:22] Jiro**
I just felt like I had to treat
you with more care than that.
**[19:26] Jiro**
The idea of doing something like
that in the heat of the moment
**[19:29] Jiro**
just made me feel uneasy somehow.
**[19:32] Jiro**
I don't really get it, but...
**[19:34] Akari**
Huh? What are you talking about?
**[19:36] Jiro**
It's the same now!
**[19:37] Jiro**
I really hate things being
this awkward between us.
**[19:41] Jiro**
I want to be able to talk to you
normally, like we did before.
**[19:44] Jiro**
And I want to eat together.
**[19:49] Jiro**
Would you please give me a chance?
**[19:58] Jiro**
Watanabe, I want to be...
**[20:06] Jiro**
a married couple with you again.
**[20:16] Jiro**
No! Not like that!
**[20:17] Jiro**
When I said "married couple,"
I meant the practical!
**[20:19] Jiro**
O-O-Of course I realize that you have Tenjin!
**[20:22] Jiro**
I'm not going to get in the way of that... er...
**[20:26] Akari**
Pff...
**[20:26] Jiro**
Pff?
**[20:29] Akari**
Oh, man!
**[20:30] Jiro**
What? Why are you laughing?
**[20:33] Akari**
You're acting so desperate!
**[20:35] Akari**
And what was all that?
A proposal? That's hilarious!
**[20:40] Jiro**
W-Well, you said we should
stop being a married couple!
**[20:44] Akari**
Huh? But we can't stop.
**[20:46] Akari**
It's something the school decided.
**[20:49] Jiro**
What?!
**[20:50] Jiro**
So that was a lie, then?!
**[20:53] Jiro**
You lied?!
**[20:54] Jiro**
Why?!
**[20:56] Akari**
How scary. It wasn't a lie. More of a vibe.
**[20:59] Jiro**
Do you have any idea how
much I agonized over this?
**[21:04] Akari**
I think I'm enjoying this married
life more than I thought I would.
**[21:12] Akari**
I like you quite a lot, Jiro.
**[21:16] Jiro**
*What is this?*
**[21:18] Jiro**
*Why'd she suddenly use my first name?*
**[21:20] Jiro**
*What does she mean by "like"?*
**[21:25] Akari**
What about you, Jiro?
**[21:27] Jiro**
*I...*
**[21:36] Jiro**
A hand?
**[21:38] Akari**
Just kidding! Too bad for you!
**[21:42] Akari**
Sometimes the heat of the moment
is important, Repressed-kun.
**[21:46] Jiro**
Watanabe...
**[21:48] Akari**
Welcome home, Jiro.
**[21:53] Jiro**
Good to be back.
**[21:55] Jiro**
*We're not going back to square one.*
**[21:57] Jiro**
*We're starting from zero.*
**[22:11] Akari**
*I like you quite a lot, Jiro.*
**[22:16] Akari**
I said it.

**[00:02] female students**
Here I go!
**[00:04] Akari**
What?!
**[00:05] Akari**
Sachi, you're B-rank?
**[00:07] Akari**
That's amazing.
**[00:08] Sachi**
He just takes it so seriously, you know?
**[00:12] Natsumi**
You doing what needs doing?
**[00:13] Sachi**
Don't be dumb.
**[00:15] Sachi**
We each have partners of our own,
so we're over all that.
**[00:18] Sachi**
And if we make A-rank,
we'll change partners, anyway.
**[00:21] Natsumi**
No way!
**[00:22] Natsumi**
I couldn't take it!
**[00:24] Natsumi**
I'd be so depressed if Ryou-kun
were here at this school!
**[00:28] Natsumi**
If Ryou-kun made it to A-rank and
lived with lots of different girls,
**[00:33] Natsumi**
I'd never be able to stand it!
**[00:34] Sachi**
There's NegaNatsu again.
**[00:37] Sachi**
You love Ryou-kun way too much.
**[00:38] Akari**
It's not that easy to get to A-rank.
**[00:41] Akari**
It's rough enough just sharing
a room with a total stranger,
**[00:44] Akari**
but you have to pretend to be married, too.
**[00:47] Natsumi**
But, I mean...
**[00:49] Natsumi**
Ryou-kun is just so hot!
**[00:52] P.E. Teacher**
Keep it down, you lot!
**[00:54] P.E. Teacher**
Watch the game!
**[00:56] Akari; Sachi; Natsumi**
Yes, sir.
**[00:58] male students**
Over here! Cover!
**[01:01] Kamo**
Are you staring at Sakurazaka-san again,
**[01:04] Kamo**
Jiro-chan?
**[01:10] Jiro**
Shut up.
**[01:20] Kamo**
Wow!
**[01:21] Kamo**
Now that's an ikemen.
**[01:34] Kamo**
It's like he's completely different
from us on a biological level.
**[01:39] Kamo**
By the way, did you hear the
rumor about Sakurazaka-san?
**[01:43] Jiro**
A rumor?
***SIGN*** What percentage does "like" have to hit before you can call it "love"?
***SIGN*** It's criminal to be so shy
***SIGN*** Intelligence and wild fancies, tick tock, just pick a mood
***SIGN*** A drizzle from a patch of blue sky
***SIGN*** No less than supreme
***SIGN*** A maiden's heart zigzags, cute and invincible
***SIGN*** The wild ringing of bells
***SIGN*** What percentage does "like" have to hit before you can call it "love"?
***SIGN*** Hold me so tightly that I fall asleep
***SIGN*** A daydream that seems like fiction
***SIGN*** Give me a kiss that breaks the expectant silence of the play
***SIGN*** Give that indecision a tight embrace, too
***SIGN*** My heart hurts and hurts,
***SIGN*** racing unpredictably with joy and excitement
***SIGN*** It's TRUE FOOL LOVE! Hold me tight!
***SIGN*** Be brave, my darling
***SIGN*** It won't all be happy and fun
***SIGN*** It's all up to us
***SIGN*** ONCE MORE SMILE, TWICE MORE CHIME
***SIGN*** Please look my way, darling
***SIGN*** Please notice my pure love for you
**[03:17] Akari**
What's this rumor about Minami-kun?
**[03:20] Sachi**
It's still a breaking story, but...
**[03:23] Sachi**
They say Tenjin isn't going to swap partners.
**[03:26] Akari**
What?
**[03:26] Natsumi**
I heard that, too.
**[03:27] Natsumi**
Even though everyone who reaches
A-rank switches partners, right?
**[03:31] Sachi**
And they get to keep the points from the
previous pairing just as they are, too.
**[03:35] Sachi**
But this practical is supposed to
be preparing us for the future,
**[03:39] Sachi**
so the school probably wants
us to try various combinations.
**[03:43] Akari**
But...
**[03:44] Akari**
I don't like that.
**[03:46] Akari**
It feels like picking out and
dropping spouses over and over.
**[03:50] Sachi**
You know it isn't like that at all, Akari.
**[03:53] Natsumi**
At this rate, it might really be possible...
**[03:56] Natsumi**
for those two...
**[04:00] Akari**
Everything's fine.
It's still only the first month.
**[04:07] Sachi**
Akari, will you marry me?
**[04:09] Natsumi**
No fair!
**[04:10] Natsumi**
I want in on this, too! Come on!
**[04:13] Akari**
Come on!
**[04:14] Akari**
Just give it a rest already!
**[04:16] teacher**
You're the one who needs to give it a rest!
**[04:19] Kamo**
What? I want in on this, too! Come on!
**[04:25] Kamo**
Hey, Jiro-chan.
**[04:26] Kamo**
Don't get so down about this.
**[04:29] Kamo**
Being the wife of an ikemen
like Tenjin instead of you
**[04:33] Kamo**
is better for Sakurazaka-san, too!
**[04:35] Jiro**
Whose side are you on?
**[04:38] Kamo**
That's obvious, isn't it?
**[04:40] Kamo**
Sakurazaka-san's.
**[04:41] Kamo**
Nay, I am an ally of all women!
**[05:22] crowd**
Hooray for the hero! Hooray!
**[05:24] crowd**
He's so cool!
**[05:26] crowd**
He's amazing!
**[05:37] Jiro**
It's just too unfair.
**[05:39] Kamo**
Hey, Jiro-chan! Lookie, lookie!
What d'you think, huh? How's it look?
**[05:42] boy 2**
When I said that, we gained points.
**[05:44] boy 3**
What? For real?
**[05:49] Shiori**
Jiro-kun!
**[05:50] Jiro**
Shiori?
**[05:51] Shiori**
It's hot today, isn't it?
**[05:53] Jiro**
Yeah.
**[05:54] Shiori**
Jiro-kun?
**[05:55] Shiori**
You seem kind of down.
Is it about the practical?
**[05:58] Jiro**
Huh?
**[06:00] Shiori**
Oh, you fought with Watanabe-san
again, didn't you?
**[06:05] Jiro**
It's not like that.
**[06:07] Shiori**
Really? I'm glad.
**[06:10] Shiori**
Watanabe-san is a good girl,
so don't cause too much trouble for her.
**[06:16] Jiro**
* If I told her right now that*
* she's the reason I'm stressing...*
**[06:21] Jiro**
*What face would she make?*
**[06:24] (Flashback) Shiori**
Thanks. It was a request from Minami-kun.
**[06:30] Shiori**
Jiro-kun?
**[06:32] Jiro**
Hey, Shiori...
**[06:33] Jiro**
Are you going to stay...
**[06:35] Jiro**
by Tenjin's side forever?
**[06:40] Akari**
Ugh! This is seriously unbelievable!
**[06:46] Akari**
Why just me? All of us were talking.
**[06:50] Akari**
And these are so dusty!
**[06:52] Tenjin**
Watanabe?
**[06:53] Akari**
Huh?
**[06:54] Akari**
Huh? M-Mina— Why?!
**[07:17] Akari**
Huh?
**[07:18] Tenjin**
That was close.
**[07:20] Tenjin**
Sorry. I shouldn't have just
talked to you out of nowhere.
**[07:23] Akari**
Th-Thanks for saving me. I'm fine now.
**[07:27] Tenjin**
Sure thing.
**[07:28] Akari**
Wh-Why are you here, anyway?
**[07:31] Tenjin**
They asked me to put away the balls.
**[07:34] Akari**
Oh... I see.
**[07:37] Akari**
*What do I do? My heart's pounding.*
**[07:41] Akari**
*He'll hear it.*
**[07:44] Tenjin**
I'm really sorry about that.
**[07:45] Tenjin**
You're not hurt, are you?
**[07:47] Akari**
No.
**[07:51] Akari**
*That's a relief...*
**[07:53] Akari**
*Minami-kun still makes my heart race.*
**[07:58] Akari**
*Huh? A relief?*
**[08:02] Akari**
*Why?*
**[08:04] Tenjin**
Let's get this cleanup over with.
**[08:06] Natsumi**
*At this rate, it might really be possible...*
**[08:10] Natsumi**
*for those two...*
**[08:12] Akari**
Mi...
**[08:12] Akari**
Minami-kun!
**[08:15] Akari**
Um... are...
**[08:18] Akari**
A-Are you going to...
**[08:21] Akari**
stay with Sakurazaka-san... forever?
**[08:28] Tenjin**
I might.
**[08:30] Tenjin**
If she says she's all right
with that, then I might.
**[08:34] Tenjin**
Things *are* going well right now.
**[08:41] Akari**
*Oh.*
**[08:43] Akari**
*So I do love him after all.*
**[08:50] Tenjin**
Watanabe?
**[08:51] Akari**
S-Sorry!
**[08:52] Akari**
It's just so dusty in here.
**[08:54] Akari**
I think I might've gotten
something in my eye.
**[09:03] Akari**
M-Minami-kun?
**[09:06] Tenjin**
Watanabe.
**[09:09] Tenjin**
Look me in the eyes.
**[09:13] Kamo**
Jiro-chan!
**[09:16] Kamo**
Sheesh.
**[09:18] Kamo**
I asked him to help me close all the windows.
**[09:22] Kamo**
Aha.
**[09:23] Kamo**
Jiro—
**[09:29] Kamo**
...chaaaan...
**[09:34] Shiori**
Um...
**[09:36] Shiori**
I dunno.
**[09:38] Shiori**
Switching partners isn't something
I can decide on my own.
**[09:41] Jiro**
O-Oh, right! Yeah, you're right.
**[09:43] Jiro**
Sorry for asking such a dumb question.
**[09:45] Jiro**
A-And Tenjin's pretty amazing, right?
**[09:50] Shiori**
But...
**[09:51] Shiori**
But if you made it up to A-rank,
**[09:55] Shiori**
then I...
**[09:57] Shiori**
Never mind!
**[09:58] Shiori**
We need to get changed
before the next class starts!
**[10:01] Jiro**
Shiori!
**[10:03] Jiro**
I'll make it to A-rank!
**[10:04] Jiro**
And when that happens...
**[10:07] Jiro**
If you're A-rank, too...
**[10:09] Jiro**
then...
**[10:11] Jiro**
Shiori...
**[10:12] Jiro**
C-Can you and I—
**[10:14] Kamo**
Jiro-chan!
**[10:17] Kamo**
This is huge!
**[10:19] Kamo**
As huge as if you bought packs in bulk
and all the cards inside were secret ones!
**[10:23] Kamo**
Listen to me!
**[10:25] Jiro**
I'm begging you. Leave right now.
**[10:27] Jiro**
If you don't, I will very
likely send you to your grave.
**[10:31] Kamo**
As a living sacrifice?!
**[10:33] Shiori**
Jiro-kun?
**[10:35] Kamo**
Kamo, kamo...
**[10:37] Jiro**
Sorry about that.
**[10:38] Jiro**
It's nothing. Never mind.
**[10:40] Shiori**
I see.
**[10:41] Kamo**
Wait, were you in the
middle of something here, too?
**[10:43] Jiro**
That's right. And what do
you mean by "here, too"?
**[10:46] Kamo**
Well, I just saw Tenjin and
Akari-chan over there—
**[10:49] Tenjin**
What about us?
**[10:50] Kamo**
Huh?
**[10:52] Tenjin**
What're you guys talking about?
**[10:54] Kamo**
N-Nothing!
**[11:00] Jiro**
*Huh? Why...*
**[11:04] Jiro**
*What is this atmosphere?*
**[11:09] Kamo**
Huh? What battlefield is this?

**[11:47] Tenjin**
Here. The key to the storage room.
**[11:49] Tenjin**
The teacher said to give it to you.
You're on the PE committee, right?
**[11:52] Kamo**
Oh. Yes, that's right.
**[11:56] Tenjin**
All yours,
**[11:57] Tenjin**
Kamo.
**[11:58] Kamo**
*My heart.*
**[12:00] Tenjin**
Oh, right.
**[12:01] Tenjin**
Shiori, did you turn in the form
to continue our marriage practical?
**[12:05] Shiori**
No, not yet.
**[12:06] Tenjin**
I forgot, too.
**[12:08] Shiori**
Then should we go together at lunch?
**[12:10] Shiori**
It's due today, right?
**[12:12] Tenjin**
Yeah. Where do we have to go again?
**[12:14] Shiori**
Jiro-kun, we're going on ahead, okay?
**[12:18] Jiro**
S-Sure.
**[12:20] Tenjin**
I've got work today, so...
**[12:22] Shiori**
So you won't need dinner, right?
**[12:24] Shiori**
Oh, that's right. I wanted to ask you...
**[12:27] Kamo**
W-Well, I guess I'll go return the key.
**[12:42] Kamo**
*Oh, dear. What kind of face is that?*
**[12:47] Kamo**
*Whatever it is, good luck, my friend.*
**[12:53] Jiro**
Listen, Watanabe...
**[12:55] Akari**
We should get back.
**[12:56] Akari**
We'll be late for class.
**[13:00] Jiro**
Right.
**[13:07] Sachi**
Huh? Where's Akari?
**[13:09] Natsumi**
She left early.
**[13:10] Natsumi**
She said we can just say it's
a cold and leave it at that.
**[13:13] Sachi**
What? That's hilarious.
**[13:17] Jiro**
She went home?

Loom.
**[13:47] Jiro**
What are you doing?
**[13:49] Kamo**
Well...
**[13:52] Kamo**
I was just thinking,
"Huh, Tenjin's still here."
**[13:54] Jiro**
Man, what is it with all this
"Tenjin," "Tenjin," "Tenjin"?
**[13:59] Jiro**
Just spit it out already!
**[14:00] Kamo**
Well...
**[14:01] Kamo**
Should I really say it, though?
**[14:03] Kamo**
I mean, Tenjin was nice
enough to remember my name.
**[14:07] Kamo**
And he kinda smelled nice.
**[14:09] Jiro**
I remember your name, too!
**[14:11] Jiro**
Kamo, Kamo, Kamo, Kamo, Kamo—
**[14:13] Kamo**
What white-fleshed fish
tastes great as tempura?
**[14:15] Jiro**
Huh?
**[14:23] Kamo**
K-Kissing happened.
**[14:26] Jiro**
Huh? With you?
**[14:28] Kamo**
Ha. Me? When even my
family's pet cat bites me?
**[14:31] Jiro**
S-Sorry.
**[14:34] Kamo**
Between Akari-chan and Tenjin!
**[14:39] Kamo**
I happened to see it!
**[14:40] Kamo**
I don't know what led up to it,
or what their relationship is, though.
**[14:43] Kamo**
Akari-chan seemed embarrassed.
**[14:45] Kamo**
So I'm certain of it. That was—
**[14:48] Jiro**
And?
**[14:49] Kamo**
Huh?
**[14:50] Jiro**
If it's true, then what?
**[14:53] Kamo**
But, I mean... you...
**[14:58] Kamo**
Well, I guess you're right.
**[15:00] Kamo**
Even if it's true, it's got
nothing to do with you.
**[15:10] Jiro**
*I see.*
**[15:12] Jiro**
*With Tenjin-sama, huh?*
**[15:14] Jiro**
* I'm happy for you.*
* Congratulations, Watanabe.*

**[15:24] Jiro**
I'm not even Team Lancia, am I?
***SIGN*** Today, we're going to limit ourselves to affordable cosmetics.
**[15:36] Jiro**
I'm back.
***SIGN*** These days, there are lots of really amazing low-priced products.
***SIGN*** First, there's this primer that I've been super hooked on lately.
**[15:44] Jiro**
I heard you have a cold.
***SIGN*** It's great for toning, and it has lavender undertones.
***SIGN*** I tend to have my hair black, so using a primer with purple tones...
***SIGN*** Oh, that's right! Speaking of hair...
***SIGN*** Ta-da! Nuanced Fancy Water for...
**[15:55] Jiro**
Do you have a fever?
***SIGN*** This lip balm has beautifying essences in it! It's godly!
***SIGN*** I'm seriously buying it on repeat!
***SIGN*** I recommend number 7 for people with blue tones to their skin!
***SIGN*** It's a tinted balm, so it'll last even through a kiss!
**[16:06] Jiro**
I'm so sorry that I'm not Tenjin.
***SIGN*** If you have occasion to, that is!
**[16:10] Akari**
What?
**[16:13] Akari**
Why are you suddenly bringing up Minami-kun?
**[16:16] Akari**
Well?
**[16:17] Jiro**
Oh, uh...
**[16:19] Akari**
What?
**[16:19] Jiro**
It's nothi—
**[16:20] Akari**
Tell me.
**[16:22] Jiro**
Uh...
**[16:27] Jiro**
You and Tenjin apparently got a lot
closer during PE. I heard about it.
**[16:32] Jiro**
I was happy for you.
**[16:34] Akari**
Happy? Why now, though?
**[16:37] Akari**
Yeah, I was happy that I got to talk to him, but...
**[16:40] Jiro**
So if you're happy, you'll kiss someone?
**[16:43] Akari**
Huh? I don't know what you're talking about.
**[16:45] Jiro**
There's no need to hide it.
**[16:47] Jiro**
It's amazing that you could embrace
like that in the storeroom.
**[16:50] Jiro**
If you and Tenjin are gonna end up together,
**[16:53] Jiro**
I'm gonna cheer you on.
**[16:55] Jiro**
It's cause for celebration.
**[16:56] Akari**
Wait, that's—
**[16:57] Jiro**
No... Yeah.
**[16:59] Jiro**
It's cause for celebration.
**[17:08] Akari**
Oh, man! This is hilarious!
**[17:12] Jiro**
Huh?
**[17:13] Akari**
That must've been when I had
him check my eye for dust!
**[17:16] Akari**
That misunderstanding is, like,
straight out of a manga!

*I will send him to his grave!*
***SIGN*** ██████████████████████████████████

**[17:21] Akari**
And anyway, that kind of thing doesn't
just happen out of the blue, right?
**[17:24] Akari**
I'm actually hurt right now
because he's not switching partners.
**[17:27] Akari**
Why would you even believe that? Sad!
**[17:30] Jiro**
Because... I know how hard you're trying.
**[17:33] Akari**
I told you...
**[17:35] Akari**
I'm working hard because
he just won't look my way.
**[17:38] Jiro**
Well, yeah, but...
**[17:40] Jiro**
I mean, you're giving it all you've got.
**[17:42] Jiro**
Why shouldn't it pay off a little?
**[17:47] Akari**
What an idiot.
**[17:49] Akari**
It's super...
**[17:50] Akari**
hilarious...
**[17:56] Jiro**
Watanabe!
**[18:01] Akari**
Hey! What are you looking at?
**[18:04] Akari**
Let go...
**[18:06] Akari**
You idiot...
**[18:07] Akari**
Don't!
**[18:10] Akari**
Look away!
**[18:30] Jiro**
I-I looked away!
**[18:33] Jiro**
I can't see anything now!
**[19:02] Jiro**
I panicked and ended up doing that.
**[19:07] Jiro**
I don't know what the right thing to do is!
**[19:09] Jiro**
I'm not the kind of guy who encounters
women crying all that often!
**[19:14] Jiro**
* Before, Watanabe was*
* sleeping, so I was safe,*
**[19:17] Jiro**
*but this time I have no excuse!*
**[19:19] Jiro**
*Of course she'd hate being held like that*
**[19:22] Jiro**
*by a guy she doesn't love!*
**[19:24] Akari**
Jiro, the bath is free.
**[19:27] Akari**
Mine aren't dry, so I borrowed this.
**[19:29] Jiro**
Huh? Borrowed what?
**[19:31] Akari**
Your shirt.
**[19:35] Jiro**
*Whoa! Are you serious?!*

**[20:06] Jiro**
L-Look, I know you're probably like this
because it's just me, but be more careful.
**[20:10] Jiro**
I don't exactly know where to look.
**[20:12] Akari**
Is your heart racing, Repressed-kun?
**[20:14] Jiro**
No! I'm used to seeing stuff like this now.
**[20:17] Jiro**
Day after day...
**[20:22] Akari**
Liar.
**[20:23] Akari**
I can feel it right here, pounding really hard.

**[20:39] Akari**
Jiro, you're so weird.
**[20:46] Jiro**
Don't make fun of me.
**[20:47] Jiro**
You should only dress like that for Tenjin.
**[20:52] Akari**
You jealous?
**[20:54] Akari**
You're kind of adorable, Jiro!
**[20:55] Jiro**
You know, dressed like that,
you really will catch a cold!
**[21:01] Akari**
Jiro, you believed that I kissed him, right?
**[21:05] Akari**
I'm not that easy, you know.
**[21:08] Jiro**
I-I said I was sorry about that.
**[21:12] Akari**
You think I've gone around and
kissed all kinds of people.
**[21:15] Jiro**
That's not what I—
**[21:17] Akari**
Smooch.
**[21:19] Akari**
It's just you, Jiro.
**[21:22] Akari**
That was my first, so yours
is the only kiss I know.
**[21:28] Akari**
Seriously, you're such an idiot!
**[21:30] Akari**
S-Suddenly kissing me on the mouth like that...
**[21:33] Akari**
Those were some serious "I'm a virgin" vibes!
**[21:35] Akari**
You went in too hard,
and you were lousy at it!
**[21:37] Akari**
Having that as my first kiss is just wrong!
**[21:39] Akari**
What *was* that, anyway?

That was really and truly my first kiss!

I have class duties today,
so I'm gonna get going.
**[00:06] Jiro**
Is this all the recycling
we have to put out today?
**[00:09] Akari**
That's all we have today.
**[00:11] Akari**
Wait.
**[00:12] Akari**
Your necktie is crooked.
**[00:14] Jiro**
Oh, thanks.
**[00:15] Jiro**
* I'm just a background guy*

**[00:18] Jiro**

*The class gyaru ended up being my mock wife.*
**[00:24] Jiro**
* She really is cute.*
* It's no wonder she's popular.*

*Sometimes, I fall under a delusion...*

*What if I really was married to Watanabe?*
**[00:52] Akari**
And we're done!
**[00:54] Akari**
Don't forget to take out the recycling!
**[00:58] Jiro**
* Guess I'll give it everything*
* I've got again today.*

For real?
**[02:54] Shiori**
We haven't done class duties
together since middle school, huh?
**[02:57] Jiro**

**[03:08] Shiori**
Thanks, Mei-chan.
**[03:11] Mei**
So, your plan to jump him first
thing in the morning failed?
**[03:16] Shiori**
I had no such plan!
**[03:19] Mei**
Sorry.
**[03:21] Mei**
But why not just tell him how you feel?
We're talking about Yakuin here.
**[03:25] Mei**
I know it'd work out for you. No problem.
**[03:27] Shiori**
Jiro-kun... doesn't think of me that way.
**[03:31] Mei**
Uh, yeah, no matter how you
look at it, he definitely does.
**[03:35] Mei**
I've never seen him even
talking with another girl.
**[03:38] Shiori**
That's just it.
**[03:41] Shiori**
Up until now, it's only been me.
**[03:44] Shiori**
He didn't know any other girls.
**[03:48] Mei**
Well, since I've given you this chance
by swapping class duties with you,
**[03:51] Mei**
you should take action!
**[03:54] Mei**
If you want to make him notice you,
you'll have to at least kiss him.
**[03:57] Shiori**
Ki—
**[03:58] Mei**
If you keep dragging your heels,
that mock wife of his might jump him instead.
**[04:03] Mei**
Kidding! I'm just joking.
**[04:07] Mei**
Be more confident in yourself.
**[04:08] Mei**
You're a great girl.
**[04:12] Mei**
You feel better now, right?
**[04:14] Shiori**
Yeah.
**[04:18] Akari**
Sorry.
**[04:19] Sachi**
Got a cold?
**[04:20] Natsumi**
Bet someone's talking about you.
**[04:22] Akari**
Cut it out.
**[04:23] Natsumi**
You sure are popular.
**[04:24] Sachi**
Speaking of rumors,
**[04:26] Sachi**
apparently about ten pairs
have started dating now.
**[04:29] Natsumi**
What? So the "practical magic"
really does exist.
**[04:32] Natsumi**
Well, when you spend every day together...
**[04:34] Akari**
They're just getting caught up
in the mood of it, that's all.
**[04:43] Akari**
Huh? What is it?
**[04:46] Sachi**
Akari-san, you've been watching
Yakuin a lot lately, haven't you?
**[04:51] Akari**
What? What are you talking about?
**[04:53] Natsumi**
I'll be cheering you on no matter who you love,
**[04:56] Natsumi**
but I might have a hard time with Virgin-kun.
**[04:59] Akari**
Wha—
**[04:59] Sachi**
Akari's so pure. In a way, someone of
his type would be sort of reassuring.
**[05:04] Natsumi**
Better than getting snagged by some creep.
**[05:06] Akari**
What? That's not happening.
**[05:09] Akari**
It's obvious that Minami-kun
is the peak of humanity.
**[05:12] Natsumi**
So she's still stricken
with the Minami bug, huh?
**[05:15] Sachi**
Well, I guess we'll just leave it at that.
**[05:18] Akari**
I'm telling you...

I'm sorry to have made you carry so much.
**[05:30] Jiro**
Not a problem! It's totally fine!
**[05:32] Shiori**
Thanks, Jiro-kun.
**[05:35] Jiro**
Sure.
**[05:37] Jiro**
So all that's left is cleaning
the blackboard, right?
**[05:39] Shiori**
Yeah.
**[05:40] Shiori**
This brought back memories, huh?
Like being back in middle school.
**[05:45] Jiro**
Yeah.
**[05:49] Jiro**
*Don't just say "yeah" and stop!*
**[05:51] Jiro**
*That ended the conversation!*
**[05:53] Jiro**
* Think of something to*
* talk about... Something...*
**[05:58] Jiro**
*I can't think of anything...*
**[06:02] Shiori**
Jiro-kun, since we're talking about it,
do you remember Hatae-sensei?
**[06:05] Shiori**
The science teacher.
**[06:06] Jiro**
Huh? Oh, the one with the crazy clothes?
**[06:09] Shiori**
Yeah, him! I ran into him at
the grocery store the other day.
**[06:13] Shiori**
He was wearing a bright red aloha shirt.
I recognized him right away!
**[06:16] Jiro**
For real? That brings back memories.
**[06:18] Jiro**
I guess he hasn't changed, then.
***SIGN*** Jiro
***SIGN*** Today
***SIGN*** Where are you? I'm gonna go shopping.
Come with me
**[06:25] Akari**
Why hasn't he read my message yet?
**[06:28] Akari**
This makes it seem like I really
want to go shopping together.
**[06:31] Akari**
Jeez...
**[06:34] Akari**
Oh, that's right! He's got class duties!
**[06:36] Akari**
Jir—
**[06:45] Akari**
*Why am I hiding?*
**[07:02] Jiro**
Sorry!
**[07:15] Shiori**
Jiro-kun, close your eyes
and lean down a little.
**[07:20] Jiro**
*Huh? Is this a dream?*
**[07:23] Jiro**
*Close my eyes and lean down a little?*
**[07:27] Jiro**
*What's going on?!*
**[07:35] Jiro**
Huh?
**[07:36] Shiori**
You had chalk dust on you.
**[07:38] Jiro**
Thanks!
**[07:40] Shiori**
No worries. I'll go beat these, okay?
**[07:42] Jiro**
*That was a close one!*
**[07:44] Jiro**
*And holy crap, I'm creepy!*
**[07:45] Jiro**
*So very not okay!*

**[07:59] Shiori**
*I'm sorry, Mei-chan!*
***SIGN*** Sakurazaka
**[08:05] Jiro**
So nothing happened in the end...
**[08:09] Jiro**
* But if I'd confessed my feelings back in*

**[08:13] Jiro**
* we wouldn't have been able*
* to talk today like we did.*
**[08:16] Jiro**
*I'm so dull and boring.*
**[08:18] Jiro**
* If she's got a memory of me*
* tucked away somewhere,*
**[08:20] Jiro**
*I should count myself lucky!*
**[08:24] Akari**
What're you being all melancholy about?
**[08:34] Akari**
I made too much hot milk.
**[08:38] Akari**
Want some?
**[08:39] Jiro**
Oh, I'll have some, then. Thanks.
**[08:42] Akari**
You seem down.
**[08:44] Jiro**
Not really.
**[08:46] Akari**
Did things go well with Sakurazaka-san?
**[08:50] Jiro**
Oh, you know... Well enough.
**[08:52] Akari**
You suck at lying, you know that?
**[08:54] Jiro**
Shut up! If you know, then don't ask!
**[08:57] Akari**
Poor thing. There, there.
**[08:58] Jiro**
Stop making it worse!
**[09:01] Jiro**
The night sky is so damn bright.
**[09:05] Akari**
You're right! You can see
more stars than you'd expect!
**[09:08] Jiro**
Right? It's pretty, huh?
**[09:10] Akari**
Wow!
**[09:12] Akari**
I bet the stars would look even
prettier if I was with Minami-kun.
**[09:17] Jiro**
Well, sorry it's just boring old me.
**[09:20] Jiro**
Though I'm sure the stars would feel honored
to have Tenjin-kun looking at them.
**[09:28] Akari**
Hey, try calling me by my first name.
**[09:31] Jiro**
That's hot!
**[09:32] Akari**
Well, come on. "A-ka-ri"!
**[09:35] Jiro**
Where'd this even come from?
**[09:36] Jiro**
I don't want to!
**[09:39] Akari**
So you call Sakurazaka-san "Shiori,"
but you call your wife by her last name?
**[09:42] Jiro**
That's just because...
**[09:45] Jiro**
Sh-Shiori is... you know. It's just different.
**[09:49] Akari**
You're embarrassed to call
a girl by her first name!
**[09:51] Akari**
That's our virgin for you! Number 1 in Japan!
**[09:55] Jiro**
I'm not falling for that.
**[09:58] Akari**
Boo.
**[10:00] Akari**
But I guess it's fine.
**[10:02] Akari**
I really like my name, you know?
**[10:04] Akari**
I like how it means "light" and is
written using the character for "star."
**[10:07] Akari**
I don't really know why, but sometimes
I lose confidence in myself, you know?
**[10:12] Akari**
At a time like that, if you
happened to be by my side,
**[10:15] Akari**
and called me by my name...
**[10:18] Akari**
I thought it might feel
comforting, that's all.
**[10:20] Akari**
So practice it before that time comes, okay?
**[10:28] Jiro**
Aka...ri.
**[10:31] Jiro**
It's just... I mean, my name's so plain.
**[10:35] Jiro**
If I had a cool name like that,
I'd never live up to it.
**[10:38] Jiro**
But... yours is nice.
**[10:41] Jiro**
I think the name "Akari" suits you.
**[10:47] Jiro**
I'm sorry, Watanabe-san.
Let's just pretend that never happened.
**[10:53] Akari**
No.
**[10:55] Jiro**
Huh?
**[11:01] Akari**
Again.
**[11:04] Akari**
And besides!
**[11:05] Akari**
Me calling you "Jiro" while you use
my last name is sort of irritating!
**[11:10] Jiro**
What do you mean, "irritating"?
**[11:11] Akari**
It's like I'm the only one in love here!
**[11:14] Jiro**
That's a bizarre reason!
**[11:18] Akari; Jiro**
Huh?
**[11:21] Jiro**
In love?
**[11:25] Akari**
It's not... It's not like that.
**[11:27] Akari**
It was hypothetical... f-for the practical.
**[11:31] Jiro**
No, um... I'm sorry, too.
I sort of jumped to conclusions.
**[11:36] Jiro**
I-I've just never had anyone say
anything like that to me before.
**[11:39] Akari**
G-G-Goodnight!
**[11:41] Jiro**
G-Goodnight.
**[11:48] Jiro**
She has Tenjin! There's no
way she meant it like that!
**[11:53] Jiro**
Stop reacting like that, you idiot.
**[11:57] Akari**
God, I hate this!
**[12:02] Akari**
What do I do?
**[12:04] Akari**
I'm so confused.
**[12:07] Homeroom Teacher**
Around this same time every year,
**[12:09] Homeroom Teacher**
with the marriage practical underway,
we see a drop in concentration,
**[12:13] Homeroom Teacher**
but it's particularly pronounced this year.
**[12:14] Homeroom Teacher**
Which is why we will immediately
begin having special tests.
**[12:19] Homeroom Teacher**
Just like the regularly scheduled tests,
**[12:20] Homeroom Teacher**
any students who fail will
take supplementary lessons.
**[12:22] Male Student**
Seriously?! I'm a serial offender
when it comes to failing!
**[12:23] Homeroom Teacher**
But this time, the scores of the married
pairs in the practical will be combined,
**[12:26] Male Student**
And depending on your pairing,
you could get a major handicap.
**[12:28] Homeroom Teacher**
and supplementary lessons
will be taken together, as well.
**[12:30] Male Student**
My wife's gonna kill me.
**[12:30] Jiro**
*What?! That's just inane!*
**[12:32] Akari**
What? It's sold out? Talk about a letdown.
**[12:32] Homeroom Teacher**
The test will be next weekend, and married
pairs must take supplementary lessons together.
**[12:35] Akari**
Why'd they even list it? That's so misleading.
**[12:36] Jiro**
*Hang on.*
**[12:38] Jiro**
* Depending on the subject,*
* I'm below average!*
**[12:38] Homeroom Teacher**
Make the most of your time after
school by assisting each other.
**[12:40] Jiro**
*This is so not funny!*
**[12:42] Jiro**
* It goes without saying that Shiori*
* and Tenjin will get high scores.*
**[12:45] Jiro**
*If I get failing grades...*
**[12:48] Akari**
Hey.
**[12:50] Akari**
Ass in the air, bitch.
**[12:52] Jiro**
*She's gonna kill me!*
**[12:54] Akari**
Karaoke? Yeah, I'll go! Yay!
**[12:56] Jiro**
*Wait.*
**[12:56] Natsumi**
We're gonna sing until we're hoarse!
**[12:57] Jiro**
*Is Watanabe good at academics?*
**[13:00] Akari**
Until we're hoarse? Just how much
stress have you built up, exactly?
**[13:01] Jiro**
* She comes to class, but she goes*
* to hang out with friends every day.*
**[13:05] Jiro**
*She couldn't be...*
**[13:07] Akari**
Hey, it's Jiro!
**[13:09] Akari**
Buy us some fabric softener.
The one with the green flowers.
**[13:13] Jiro**
Sure... H-Hey, I wanna talk later
about the academic performance tes—
**[13:17] Akari**
Oh, sorry!
**[13:18] Akari**
I got invited out to karaoke today.
**[13:20] Akari**
Apparently, we'll be singing with
some guys from some boys' school.
**[13:23] Akari**
What? Does that bother you? Tee-hee!
**[13:25] Akari**
Are you jealous?
**[13:27] Jiro**
No!
**[13:28] Jiro**
You're fine for the test, then?
**[13:31] Akari**
Totally fine!
**[13:33] Akari**
It'll be fine. Everything'll work out somehow.
**[13:36] Jiro**
"Somehow"?
**[13:38] Jiro**
Aren't there subjects you're not as good at,
or areas you don't understand?
**[13:43] Akari**
Areas I don't understand, huh?
**[13:46] Akari**
Hmm... What were the areas again?
**[13:50] Jiro**
Watanabe, look me in the
eye and say that to me.
**[13:53] Akari**
I-If I start working hard tomorrow...
**[13:56] Akari**
it'll be fine.
**[13:59] Jiro**
Let's head home.
**[14:00] Akari**
I can't! They asked for me.
**[14:03] Jiro**
Look, what if you have to
take supplementary lessons?
**[14:06] Jiro**
You'll end up even farther from Tenjin!
**[14:08] Akari**
Yeah, but...
**[14:09] Jiro**
But nothing!
**[14:11] Jiro**
You can hang out with your friends anytime!
**[14:12] Akari**
It's not like that!
**[14:14] Akari**
It's the guys who asked for me, not my friends.
**[14:17] Akari**
That's harder to turn down.
**[14:18] Jiro**
Guys? Well, I'm asking for you here, too.
**[14:22] Jiro**
Let's go, Watanabe.
**[14:27] Akari**
All right! I get it already, okay?
**[14:31] Akari**
This sucks.
**[14:32] Akari**
You're way too desperate about this.
**[14:35] Akari**
Just because Sakurazaka-san's involved...
**[14:39] Mei**
Oh, I get it! I just have to go like this!
**[14:42] Shiori**
All that's left is applying it in practice.
**[14:44] Mei**
You're amazing, Shiori.
**[14:46] Mei**
You make it so easy to understand!
**[14:48] Mei**
Man, these special tests...
**[14:51] Mei**
You're probably feeling good
with Tenjin as your partner,
**[14:54] Mei**
but there were a bunch of pairs
who were panicking about them.
**[14:57] Shiori**
But you pick things up
quickly, so you'll be fine!
**[15:01] Mei**
I'm confident when it comes to sports,
**[15:04] Mei**
but with academics, not so much.
**[15:07] Mei**
But I feel like I might just
manage this. Thanks!
**[15:10] Shiori**
I'm glad.
**[15:11] Mei**
As thanks, I'll give you a lecture on how
to plan for things of that other type.
**[15:15] Shiori**
What other type?
**[15:17] Mei**
The kissing type.
**[15:20] Shiori**
Mei-chan!
**[15:22] Mei**
Man, I laughed so hard about
what happened two days ago.
**[15:26] Shiori**
Oh, come on!
**[15:27] Mei**
Yakuin being the way Yakuin is,
and you being the way you are...
**[15:30] Shiori**
Stop talking about it!
**[15:40] Mei**
By the way, last time...
**[15:45] Akari**
I don't wanna do this anymore! I need a break!
**[15:47] Jiro**
You've only solved a
handful of problems, though.
**[15:52] Jiro**
*This is bad.*
**[15:53] Jiro**
*She picks things up fast when I teach her,*
**[15:55] Jiro**
*but she just fundamentally hates studying.*
**[16:00] Jiro**
Come on, let's just try for a little longer.
**[16:02] Jiro**
I can help you a little with math,
and we can tackle the rest together, okay?
**[16:07] Akari**
Yeah?
**[16:09] Akari**
For Sakurazaka-san's sake, right?
**[16:12] Jiro**
Huh? Sorry, what did you say?
**[16:15] Akari**
Nothing.
**[16:34] Akari**
Hey, Jiro. Let's do something
more fun than studying.
**[16:39] Akari**
What do you want to do?
**[16:41] Akari**
Whatever you want to do, I'll do it with you.
**[16:45] Akari**
Well?
**[16:47] Akari**
What shall we do?
**[16:56] Jiro**
S-Study! We're going to study!
**[17:00] Akari**
Ugh. Study, study. My ears hurt.
**[17:03] Akari**
My plan failed.
**[17:05] Jiro**
Listen—
**[17:06] Akari**
You're *so* dense.
**[17:08] Jiro**
What made you think a blatant
strategy like that would work?
**[17:10] Jiro**
I swear...
**[17:13] Jiro**
Hey, Watanabe. You did this right up to here.
**[17:16] Akari**
Really?!
**[17:17] Jiro**
Yeah.
**[17:19] Jiro**
Try solving it like you
did the one before it.
**[17:22] Akari**
Um, so... 2x is t, right?
**[17:25] Akari**
So this comes first...
**[17:28] Akari**
Oh, man! I think I get it!
**[17:34] Akari**
It...
**[17:36] Akari**
It's over!
**[17:38] Jiro**
You worked really hard!
**[17:40] Jiro**
We made it further than I thought we would.
**[17:42] Akari**
I told you it wouldn't
be a problem, didn't I?
**[17:46] Akari**
I might seriously be a genius.
**[17:48] Jiro**
Yeah. You might be right.
**[17:50] Jiro**
* She's the type that improves*
* through obvious praise.*
**[17:53] Jiro**
Wh-What? I really do think that!
**[17:57] Akari**
Thanks, Jiro-sensei.
**[18:00] Akari**
Just kidding!
**[18:03] Akari**
Your heart just started racing, didn't it?
**[18:05] Akari**
Guys seem to like that
sort of thing. Why is that?
**[18:08] Jiro**
How am I supposed to know?
**[18:10] Jiro**
Come on. Let's get this cleaned
up and have something to eat.
**[18:13] Akari**
Okay. Let's do that, Sensei.
**[18:17] Jiro**
* What is this? She's really*
* pestering me a lot today.*
**[18:19] Akari**
So how about that one?
**[18:21] Akari**
Did that make your heart race?
**[18:23] Jiro**
My heart did not race, then or now.
**[18:26] Jiro**
Stop that! Come on, just clean up!
**[18:29] Akari**
It's infuriating.
**[18:31] Akari**
You're just Jiro, but you're
better at academics than me.
**[18:33] Akari**
At least get a little wound up.
I feel like I'm losing here.
**[18:37] Jiro**
Get wound up? Look, this isn't
about winning or losing—
**[18:42] Jiro**
Huh?! Wait... H-Hey!
**[18:46] Akari**
Then how about this?
**[18:50] Akari**
Is your heart racing now?
**[18:53] Akari**
You're ignoring me again!
That really pisses me off, you know!
**[18:56] Jiro**
*Remember!*
**[18:57] Jiro**
* Remember that grotesque scene*
* from the movie you saw yesterday!*
**[19:03] Jiro**
Wait!
**[19:03] Akari**
You're always sneaking glances, right?
**[19:06] Akari**
Go on. You can look.
**[19:13] Jiro**
*Shit! Not this again!*
**[19:17] Jiro**
*Don't you dare lose, me!*
**[19:27] Akari**
Why...
**[19:31] Jiro**
*Damn it!*
**[19:42] Akari**
Hey, the sound of your heart
is pretty wild right now.
**[19:47] Akari**
It's pounding so hard.
**[19:50] Jiro**
It is.
**[19:51] Akari**
Welp, you lose. Too bad for you.
**[20:01] Akari**
Wait, huh?
**[20:02] Akari**
Hurry up and get off me.
**[20:05] Akari**
Why does your face look so serious?
**[20:08] Akari**
You can't, okay?
**[20:11] Akari**
Wait... Your hand!
**[20:12] Akari**
Are you listening?
**[20:24] Akari**
I said you can't!
**[20:35] Akari**
Jiro...
**[20:41] Akari**
Wait, Jiro!
**[20:42] Akari**
Your nose is bleeding!
**[20:49] Akari**
Oh my God! You're adorable!
**[20:52] Jiro**
Damn it! Whose fault do you think this is?
**[20:54] Jiro**
*I really messed up!*
**[20:57] Jiro**
*Thank you, nosebleed! You saved me.*
**[21:00] Jiro**
And anyway...
**[21:02] Jiro**
You've been acting weird all day.
**[21:04] Akari**
Only because you're so desperate not
to let Sakurazaka-san leave you behind.
**[21:08] Jiro**
What?
**[21:09] Akari**
You seemed so impatient and panicked.
I just wanted to get you to take a breath.
**[21:14] Jiro**
I'm not working this
frantically just for myself.
**[21:18] Jiro**
The sooner you can pair with
Tenjin, the better, right?
**[21:21] Jiro**
You're the one who always earns us points.
**[21:24] Jiro**
I'm the one who holds us back.
**[21:26] Jiro**
I mean, I'm sure you'd have done well
no matter who you were paired with.
**[21:30] Jiro**
I know how much you've helped me.
**[21:33] Jiro**
I figured, with something like academics,
I might be able to help you a bit, too,
**[21:38] Jiro**
even at my level.
**[21:42] Akari**
Don't try to act cool with
a tissue stuck up your nose.
**[21:45] Jiro**
Shut up! Would you just let that go already?!
**[21:48] Jiro**
Don't say anything about it at school!

**[23:57] (Flashback) Akari**
Hey, Jiro. Let's do something
more fun than studying.
**[24:02] Jiro**
*Self-control!*
**[24:04] Jiro**
* Nothing I came up with*

**[00:01] Akari**
Come in.
**[00:03] Jiro**
Morning.
**[00:04] Akari**
Good morning, Yakuin.
**[00:06] Akari**
The curling iron's still hot,
so be careful, okay?
**[00:09] Jiro**
Okay.
**[00:10] Jiro**
*Did she call me by my last name?*
**[00:11] Jiro**
*Feels like it's been ages since she did that.*
**[00:15] Akari**
Sorry, Yakuin.
**[00:16] Akari**
We ran out of coffee, so it's hot milk today.
**[00:20] Jiro**
Okay.
**[00:22] Jiro**
*She really is calling me by my last name.*
**[00:24] Jiro**
* It doesn't seem like she's angry*
* with me or anything, but...*
**[00:29] Akari**
Oh, yeah. They're gonna start posting
the midterm updates today, right?
**[00:33] Jiro**
Yeah. They're gonna come
through the app, right?
**[00:36] Akari**
We studied hard for the special tests,
so we should be in a good place.
**[00:40] Jiro**
Thanks.
**[00:43] Akari**
Oh, jeez.
**[00:44] Akari**
You've got some bedhead here, Yakuin.
**[00:47] Akari**
I'll fix it for you later, okay?
**[00:49] Jiro**
S-Sure.
**[00:51] Akari**
Oh, that's right!
**[00:53] Jiro**
* Aside from using my last name,*
* she's acting normal...*
**[00:55] Jiro**
*or, actually, in a really good mood?*
**[00:59] Akari**
Look! Sachi gave me
these chocolates yesterday!
**[01:02] Akari**
She said it's the super fancy stuff!
**[01:04] Akari**
Let's eat them together tonight!
**[01:07] Jiro**
Sure.
**[01:08] Akari**
I can't wait!
**[01:09] Jiro**
*What is this?*
**[01:11] Jiro**
*What's going on?*
***SIGN*** What percentage does "like" have to hit before you can call it "love"?
***SIGN*** It's criminal to be so shy
***SIGN*** Intelligence and wild fancies, tick tock, just pick a mood
***SIGN*** A drizzle from a patch of blue sky
***SIGN*** No less than supreme
***SIGN*** A maiden's heart zigzags, cute and invincible
***SIGN*** The wild ringing of bells
***SIGN*** What percentage does "like" have to hit before you can call it "love"?
***SIGN*** Hold me so tightly that I fall asleep
***SIGN*** A daydream that seems like fiction
***SIGN*** Give me a kiss that breaks the expectant silence of the play
***SIGN*** Give that indecision a tight embrace, too
***SIGN*** My heart hurts and hurts,
***SIGN*** racing unpredictably with joy and excitement
***SIGN*** It's TRUE FOOL LOVE! Hold me tight!
***SIGN*** Be brave, my darling
***SIGN*** It won't all be happy and fun
***SIGN*** It's all up to us
***SIGN*** ONCE MORE SMILE, TWICE MORE CHIME
***SIGN*** Please look my way, darling
***SIGN*** Please notice my pure love for you
***SIGN*** girlfriend suddenly calling you by last name
**[02:47] Kamo**
What?
**[02:48] Kamo**
Why are you searching for *that*?
**[02:50] Kamo**
Did you find yourself a girlfriend?
**[02:52] Jiro**
Yeah, right.
**[02:54] Jiro**
It's about Watanabe.
**[02:56] Kamo**
What?
**[02:57] Kamo**
You're trying to use real-life
crowdsourced knowledge on Akari-chan?
**[03:01] Kamo**
*You* of all people?
**[03:03] Jiro**
Whose side are you on?
**[03:06] Jiro**
Actually, do you and your wife argue?
**[03:09] Kamo**
We sure do!
**[03:10] Kamo**
Not long ago, she was irritated all day.
**[03:13] Kamo**
So I asked, "Is it your period?"
and patted her tummy,
**[03:15] Kamo**
and she wouldn't even talk
to me for a while after that.
**[03:18] Jiro**
You are a shining example of how
to get a woman to hate a man.
**[03:21] Kamo**
That's right. Bow down to me.
**[03:23] Kamo**
Actually, I wish my wife
would just tell me things.
**[03:27] Kamo**
If she said she wanted me
to leave her alone, I would.
***SIGN*** Will do
***SIGN*** Read
***SIGN*** I'm buying shampoo on the way home.
Which do you want?
**[03:29] Jiro**
It'd help a lot if they'd just say something.
**[03:32] Kamo**
Exactly.
***SIGN*** You can pick
**[03:36] Mei**
I'm sorry I wasn't mindful enough to notice.
**[03:42] Mei**
But I just can't see you that way.
**[03:45] underclassman**
That's all right!
**[03:46] underclassman**
I'm in love with you, Mei-senpai!
**[03:49] Kamo**
Looks like the rumors were true.
**[03:51] Jiro**
What do you mean?
**[03:53] Kamo**
Apparently, Hamano Mei is
super popular with the girls.
**[03:56] Kamo**
There was a time when everyone
was talking about it.
**[03:59] Jiro**
Huh...
**[04:00] Jiro**
Wait, what does sneaking
around like this say about us?
**[04:06] Mei**
Thank you for falling in love with me.
**[04:08] Mei**
Your feelings make me super happy.
**[04:11] Mei**
Come on. You've gotta smile so you can
find someone a lot better than me.
**[04:17] underclassman**
Then, just once...
**[04:20] underclassman**
Please call me by my name!
**[04:22] Mei**
All right.
**[04:23] Mei**
Once I let you go,
you can't cry anymore, okay,
**[04:26] Mei**
Manami?
**[04:27] underclassman**
Okay.
**[04:30] Kamo**
I don't know why, but I feel a
tremendous sense of utter defeat.
**[04:34] Jiro**
Same.
**[04:39] Jiro**
* "I'm sorry I wasn't mindful*
* enough to notice," huh?*
**[04:45] Jiro**
It's no use!
**[04:47] Jiro**
I thought it over all day,
and I still don't get it!
**[04:50] Jiro**
What is it that I'm supposed to notice?
**[04:53] Jiro**
Why is she calling me by my last name?
**[04:56] underclassman**
*Please call me by my name!*
**[04:59] (Flashback) Akari**
...if you happened to be by my side,
**[05:01] (Flashback) Akari**
and called me by my name...
**[05:04] Jiro**
Nah, that can't be it.
**[05:09] Jiro**
*It can't be... Right?*
**[05:12] Akari**
I'm back!
**[05:16] Jiro**
*She's back.*
**[05:17] Jiro**
* Should I try calling her*
* by name just to check?*
**[05:19] Jiro**
* But if I'm wrong,*
* it'll be embarrassing as hell!*
**[05:22] Akari**
Hey!
**[05:23] Jiro**
Yes?!
**[05:23] Akari**
Did you see the midterm updates?
**[05:26] Jiro**
N-No, but... right now, that's not really...

E-Eighth?!
**[05:31] Akari**
That's right!
**[05:32] Jiro**
For real?
**[05:33] Akari**
For real!
**[05:33] Jiro**
For really real?
**[05:34] Akari**
For really real!
**[05:36] Akari**
We did it!
**[05:38] Akari**
Oh my God, we did it! I'm so happy!
**[05:41] Jiro**
Yay!
**[05:43] Jiro**
B-B-But first, can I take my shower?
**[05:46] Akari**
Oh.
**[05:49] Akari**
This shampoo was definitely the right choice!
**[05:52] Akari**
It smells so nice!
**[05:53] Akari**
And it says it'll make your hair super silky.
**[05:56] Akari**
Wouldn't that be hilarious?
A super silky Yakuin.
**[06:00] Jiro**
* She seriously isn't calling me*
* by my first name anymore.*
**[06:03] (Flashback) Akari**
I really like my name, you know?
**[06:07] Akari**
I'm gonna start the hair dryer now.
**[06:10] Jiro**
Akari.
**[06:11] Akari**
Yakuin, it's not too hot, is it?
**[06:14] Jiro**
Akari.
**[06:15] Akari**
Hey, Yakuin?
**[06:17] Jiro**
Akari.
**[06:19] Jiro**
Akari.
**[06:21] Jiro**
Huh? Wait...
**[06:23] Jiro**
I wasn't... That was...
**[06:25] Akari**
What is it, Jiro?
**[06:28] Jiro**
* Huh? Wait, did I actually...*
* hit the nail on the head?*
**[06:33] Jiro**
A-Akari.
**[06:36] Akari**
What is it, Jiro?
**[06:38] Jiro**
* So she really did want me*
* to call her by her name?*
**[06:42] Jiro**
*Wait...*
**[06:44] Jiro**
*What?*
**[06:45] Jiro**
Akari.
**[06:46] Akari**
Jeez...
**[06:47] Akari**
If you don't need anything,
don't say my name like that.
**[06:50] Jiro**
*Crap. I'm gonna start grinning.*
**[06:53] Jiro**
Akari.
**[06:55] Akari**
Stop. Don't look at my face right now.
**[06:58] Jiro**
Th-There's no need to be *that* embarrassed.
**[07:01] Akari**
I'm not embarrassed!
**[07:02] Jiro**
That's hot! Okay, you're not embarrassed!
Of course you're not embarrassed!
**[07:05] Jiro**
Hot! Hot, hot, hot!
**[07:07] Akari**
I mean, we *are* technically
a married couple, so...
**[07:09] Jiro**
Huh?
**[07:12] Akari**
I'd prefer if you'd keep calling me "Akari."
**[07:14] Akari**
That's how...
**[07:18] Akari**
I like it.
**[07:20] Akari**
We only have a little longer to go,
**[07:22] Akari**
so please just indulge me, Jiro.
**[07:26] Jiro**
*That's right.*
**[07:28] Jiro**
* Things will eventually go*
* back to the way they were.*
**[07:31] Jiro**
* She'll go back to being*
* Watanabe, my classmate.*

**[07:45] Mei**
For real?
**[07:47] male students**
That way!
**[07:47] Mei**
This is bad, Shiori!
**[07:48] male students**
Defense! Defense!
**[07:50] Mei**
If you don't commit to doing *something*,
you're gonna lose Yakuin!
**[07:53] Shiori**
Th-This again?
**[07:55] Mei**
You didn't make any progress when
you had class duty together.
**[08:00] Mei**
At this rate, it'll all be over
before he even notices anything.
**[08:02] Mei**
People like Yakuin tend to
go where they're pushed.
**[08:06] Mei**
If you want to date him, you have
to do more than his wife is doing!
**[08:09] Shiori**
Th-That's easy to say...
**[08:12] Mei**
It's possible that they've
at least kissed already.
**[08:15] Mei**
If you let your guard down, they might
end up doing even more than that.
**[08:19] Shiori**
M-More than that?
**[08:21] Mei**
For now, I'll get things set up for you.
**[08:25] boy 1**
Oh, crap!
**[08:26] boy 2**
Heads up!
**[08:32] Mei**
Hey! Shiori!
**[08:33] male students**
Is she okay?!
**[08:34] male students**
Oh, shit...
**[08:36] Jiro**
Shiori collapsed?
**[08:38] Mei**
She's resting in the nurse's office.
You should go see her.
**[08:41] Jiro**
Huh? Me?
**[08:42] Mei**
You got something else to do?
**[08:44] Jiro**
No, but... I mean... I don't really
have a reason to go see her.
**[08:49] Mei**
Do you need a reason to check
on someone who's unwell?
**[08:51] Mei**
Are you embarrassed to say
you're worried about her?
**[08:55] Mei**
If you don't want to go,
that's a different story.
**[08:58] Mei**
But if you're just trying to protect
some weird sense of pride, just go.
**[09:02] Mei**
Here. Take this with you.
**[09:06] Mei**
I just don't get it, Shiori.
**[09:08] Mei**
What do you like about a coward like him?
***SIGN*** Oh, yeah!
***SIGN*** I sent Yakuin to you.
***SIGN*** Read
**[09:16] Shiori**
Mei-chan! This is too sudden!
**[09:30] Shiori**
*You can do this, me!*
**[09:33] Jiro**
Excuse me.
**[09:35] Jiro**
Huh? Where's the nurse?
**[09:37] Shiori**
Jiro-kun?
**[09:41] Jiro**
Shiori?
**[09:45] Shiori**
You came to see me?
**[09:47] Shiori**
Come on in.
**[09:49] Jiro**
O-Okay.
**[09:52] Jiro**
Are you feeling better now?
**[09:53] Shiori**
Yeah, thanks. Sorry for making you worry.
**[09:58] Shiori**
But I'm happy you came to see me.
**[10:02] Jiro**
Um, Hamano sent these.
I'll leave them here.
**[10:06] Jiro**
Huh? You already have some.
**[10:08] Shiori**
Oh, Minami-kun brought those.
**[10:12] Jiro**
Oh, right. Yeah, that makes sense.
**[10:15] Jiro**
You're married, after all.
**[10:18] Shiori**
It seems like things are going well.
**[10:20] Jiro**
Huh?
**[10:21] Shiori**
With you and Watanabe-san.
You made it to eighth place, right?
**[10:24] Jiro**
Oh... Nah, it's more like things
are *finally* working out.
**[10:27] Jiro**
We're always arguing,
so we lose points a lot.
**[10:30] Shiori**
That sounds nice.
**[10:31] Shiori**
I kinda want to try arguing with you, too.
**[10:34] Jiro**
Why?!
**[10:36] Shiori**
Well, I've known you for such a long time,
**[10:38] Shiori**
but I've never seen you angry before.
**[10:42] Shiori**
If I became your wife,
would I be able to see that, too?
**[10:48] Shiori**
Oh, I'm just talking about the practical!
**[10:51] Jiro**
R-Right.
**[10:53] Shiori**
I've been feeling anxious.
**[10:55] Shiori**
I'm in high school now, but I
still get nervous around boys.
**[10:59] Shiori**
I'm a pain to deal with, huh?
**[11:00] Jiro**
Not at all!
**[11:02] Shiori**
But all the girls around me keep
getting more and more mature,
**[11:06] Shiori**
and I'm still a child.
**[11:09] Jiro**
So things with Tenjin haven't
gotten... more mature?
**[11:12] Jiro**
Like, you know... kissing or whatever?
**[11:16] Shiori**
We don't do that kind of thing!
**[11:18] Shiori**
And even if things went that
way with the person I loved,
**[11:22] Shiori**
I'd be terrible at it,
and they'd get sick of me.
**[11:24] Jiro**
That wouldn't happen!
**[11:26] Jiro**
Someone's first time is always precious.
**[11:28] Jiro**
If it was me, I'd be happy
no matter what form it took!
**[11:33] Shiori**
H-Hey... You said before that
**[11:36] Shiori**
if there was anything you could
do to help, you would, right?
**[11:41] Jiro**
Y-Yeah.
**[11:42] Shiori**
Will you do me the favor I'm about to ask?
**[11:44] Jiro**
Huh?
**[11:46] Shiori**
I want you to practice with me.
**[11:50] Shiori**
K...
**[11:51] Shiori**
Kissing.
**[11:56] Shiori**
I-If you don't want to, that's totally okay!
**[11:58] Shiori**
Sorry for just springing that on you!
**[12:00] Shiori**
It's an imposition, right? I mean,
you have Watanabe-san now...
**[12:04] Jiro**
Why?
**[12:05] Shiori**
Huh?
**[12:06] Jiro**
Why me?
**[12:09] Shiori**
You're the only one I could
ask to do this. I'm sorry.
**[12:13] Jiro**
I don't mind at all.
**[12:14] Jiro**
We can practice, but, um...
**[12:16] Jiro**
I'm probably not very good at it.
**[12:19] Jiro**
Y-You're seriously okay with it being me?
**[12:27] Shiori**
If you would, I'd appreciate it.
**[12:31] Jiro**
Th-Then...
**[12:35] Shiori**
Oh, gosh, my heart is racing so fast!
**[12:39] Jiro**
So is mine.
**[12:41] Shiori**
That makes me happy.
Our hearts are racing together.
**[12:45] Jiro**
*I don't think it's possible...*
**[12:47] Jiro**
*but if Shiori... is actually serious about me...*
**[12:51] Mei**
* But if you're just trying to protect*
* some weird sense of pride, just go.*
**[12:55] Jiro**
*That's right! I have to go for it!*
**[13:00] Jiro**
*If I don't go for it now...*
**[13:07] Shiori**
Wait, Jiro-kun!
**[13:09] Shiori**
Let's not do this after all!
**[13:11] Shiori**
We're not married.
It probably wouldn't be right.
**[13:16] Sachi**
Excuse me.
**[13:18] Sachi**
Let me take a nap here, Sensei.
**[13:20] Sachi**
Wait, no one's here.
**[13:26] Sachi**
*Ugh! You're at school, you know!*
**[13:29] Sachi**
Sorry for bothering you!
**[13:47] Jiro**
S-Sorry!
**[13:48] Jiro**
That was an accident!
**[13:52] Shiori**
Y-Yeah, I know. It's okay.
**[13:55] Shiori**
So, um, Jiro-kun, I'll be
okay on my own now, so...
**[14:00] Jiro**
R-R-Really? Th-Then I'll get going.
***SIGN*** Can I hang out with Sachi and
the others after school?
***SIGN*** Will you be able to

***SIGN*** Jirooooo!
***SIGN*** Can I hang out with Sachi and

**[14:24] Akari**
Don't ignore me, you idiot.
**[14:26] Sachi**
Akari! So this is where you've been.
**[14:29] Akari**
Sachi? Weren't you going to
the nurse's office to skip class?
**[14:33] Sachi**
I tried, but it wasn't gonna happen.
**[14:35] Sachi**
When I went in, other
people were there already.
**[14:37] Sachi**
Between the curtains, I could
see the shoes of a guy *and* a girl.
**[14:40] Sachi**
And the bed was creaking.
**[14:42] Akari**
Huh? What do you mean?
You think they were doing *that*?
**[14:45] Sachi**
What else could a guy and a girl
be doing to make a bed creak?
**[14:49] Sachi**
Seriously, what the hell are they thinking?
***SIGN*** Sorry.
Shiori collapsed, so I
was in the nurse's office.
***SIGN*** Got it.
***SIGN*** Jirooooo!
***SIGN*** Please answer me!
***SIGN*** Sorry.
Shiori collapsed, so I
was in the nurse's office.
***SIGN*** Got it.
**[14:56] Akari**
No way.
**[14:57] Sachi**
Akari? What is it?
**[15:01] Akari**
Jiro...
**[15:09] (Flashback) Akari**
Let's eat it together!
***SIGN*** 7/5 Wednesday
**[15:14] Jiro**
Akari's pretty late.
***SIGN*** Sorry we couldn't do an all-nighter
***SIGN*** You seem down. What's wrong?
If it's something you can talk about, tell us
***SIGN*** Natsumi's worried about you, too
**[15:28] manager**
Oh, Mikkun, you were about
to clock out, weren't you?
**[15:31] manager**
Sorry. I just need whipped cream on this.
**[15:33] Minami**
Got it.
**[15:35] manager**
The one who ordered it is a serious gyaru,
**[15:38] manager**
but she seemed kinda down, so you
can give her a little extra for free.
**[15:41] Minami**
Really?
**[15:47] manager**
Thank you for waiting!
**[15:48] manager**
Please enjoy at your leisure.
**[15:51] Akari**
It's so good! And sweet!
**[15:54] Akari**
Huh?
***SIGN*** Extra whipped cream on the house.
Hope it cheers you up.
**[15:58] Akari**
*Huh? Oh, crap! Did it show on my face?*
**[16:00] Akari**
*How embarrassing!*
**[16:04] Akari**
*Oh, I get it. I'm...*
**[16:06] Akari**
*feeling depressed.*
**[16:09] Akari**
That guy's actually really nice.
**[16:15] Akari**
*Did Jiro really do that with Sakurazaka-san?*
**[16:19] Akari**
He said she's his first love, right?
**[16:22] Akari**
Having your first time be with your
first love would make anyone happy.
**[16:28] Akari**
* Just because Jiro and*
* Sakurazaka-san are together now*
**[16:31] Akari**
*doesn't mean anything's changed.*
**[16:33] Akari**
* Jiro and I are a married*
* couple right now, that's all.*
**[16:37] Akari**
*It's nothing more than that, and yet...*
**[16:40] Akari**
*If I open this door right now,*
**[16:42] Akari**
* I feel like there'll be a*
* Jiro there that I don't know.*
**[16:49] Akari**
Is he already asleep?
**[16:58] Akari**
Why are you sleeping there?
**[17:00] Akari**
And why are all your dirty
clothes scattered everywhere?
**[17:03] Akari**
I told you not to roll up
your socks like that!
**[17:06] Akari**
What am I, your mother?
**[17:08] Akari**
Come on! I'm stepping on
the pedal, but it won't...
**[17:12] Akari**
Argh!
**[17:17] Akari**
Got it!
**[17:18] Akari**
Ugh!
**[17:19] Akari**
I'm gonna start throwing my
dirty clothes everywhere, too!
**[17:22] Akari**
Are you okay with that?
**[17:23] Akari**
And if you're going to sleep,
sleep in your room!
**[17:26] Akari**
And you could at least vacuum!
***SIGN*** 7/5 Wednesday
***SIGN*** I just found out...
Those chocolates have whiskey in them!
You haven't eaten them, have you?!
**[17:28] Akari**
Learn to cook something!
**[17:30] Akari**
And I'm shouting here, so wake up already!
**[17:33] Akari**
Jeez... My depression just disappeared.
**[17:37] Akari**
The table's all messy, too...
**[17:42] Akari**
You were waiting for me?
**[17:48] Akari**
Idiot.
**[17:51] Akari**
Hey, Jiro? Are you listening?
**[18:09] Akari**
You're really not gonna wake up?
**[18:11] Akari**
Are you alive?
**[18:12] Akari**
Your wife is taking off her
clothes here, you know.
**[18:19] Akari**
Hey, Jiro...
**[18:21] Akari**
Is this what you did in the nurse's office?
**[18:25] Akari**
Or was it...
**[18:27] Akari**
something far beyond this
that I don't even know about?
**[18:31] Akari**
Did you go off and become
an adult without me?
**[18:35] Akari**
I'd hate that. Don't leave me behind.
**[18:39] Akari**
You know, I really will
cheer you on in your love.
**[18:44] Akari**
So just for now, while I'm
your wife, could you wait?
**[18:48] Akari**
Please, Jiro.
**[18:57] Jiro**
Ow, my arm...
**[19:02] Jiro**
Wha?!
**[19:03] Jiro**
*Why? Why is she sleeping next to me?!*
**[19:07] Jiro**
*And what happened to her clothes?!*
**[19:12] Akari**
Good morning, Jiro.
**[19:16] Akari**
What's wrong? I said good morning.
**[19:19] Akari**
Hey!
**[19:21] Akari**
Huh? What? What's wrong with you?
**[19:23] Jiro**
That's what I want to ask *you*!
**[19:25] Jiro**
Wh-What happened to your clothes?
I can see everything!
**[19:30] Jiro**
You didn't even realize it?!
**[19:33] Jiro**
I have a ton of questions,
but first, please put some clothes on.
**[19:37] Jiro**
We can talk after—
**[19:38] Akari**
What's the point now?
**[19:40] Akari**
You're the one who took them off of me.
**[19:45] Akari**
Wow, you're scum! You really
forgot what happened last night?
**[19:49] Jiro**
H-Hang on. Time out.
**[19:50] Jiro**
What?
**[19:51] Akari**
You really don't remember! What a jerk!
**[19:54] Akari**
Even after all you did to me...
**[19:57] Akari**
Don't!
**[19:58] Jiro**
After "all" I did?!
**[20:00] Jiro**
* Wait, wait. I have absolutely*
* no memory of anything.*
**[20:03] Jiro**
*Does that mean we did it?*
**[20:05] Jiro**
*That we went as far as it's possible to go?*
**[20:09] Jiro**
*No, wait.*
**[20:10] Jiro**
* She has Tenjin, but she'd*
* let me have her body?*
**[20:12] Jiro**
* Yeah, as if things would ever get*
* like that between us, anyway...*
**[20:19] Jiro**
*Except they already did!*
**[20:22] Jiro**
Wait!
**[20:23] Jiro**
I'm not a virgin anymore?
**[20:24] Akari**
Huh? Wh-Why are you asking me?!
**[20:27] Akari**
Let go of me, you idiot!
**[20:29] Jiro**
Oh, s-sorry.
**[20:31] Jiro**
* If we really did do it, I'd be*
* absolute scum not to remember, right?*
**[20:36] Jiro**
*I mean, it probably...*
**[20:38] Jiro**
*wasn't just my first time.*
**[20:41] Akari**
Hey, Jiro...
**[20:42] Akari**
Was last night your first time?
**[20:44] Jiro**
Last night?!
**[20:45] Jiro**
If it happened... then it was.
**[20:48] Akari**
Really?
**[20:49] Akari**
If you're lying, you don't get any dinner.
**[20:52] Jiro**
It was. Why would I lie about that now?
**[20:56] Akari**
I see.
**[20:58] Akari**
So it was.
**[21:00] Jiro**
Also... sorry.
**[21:01] Akari**
Huh?
**[21:02] Jiro**
I mean, since I was a virgin...
**[21:05] Jiro**
I probably put most of the burden on you.
**[21:08] Jiro**
It must have been difficult
and painful because of m—
**[21:11] Akari**
I was lying.
**[21:12] Jiro**
Huh?
**[21:13] Akari**
I lied.
**[21:15] Akari**
Isn't that obvious?
**[21:16] Akari**
Of course it was all a lie!
**[21:18] Akari**
Talk about hilarious!
**[21:20] Jiro**
You...
**[21:21] Jiro**
You've gotta be kidding me!
**[21:24] Akari**
You fell for it!
**[21:26] Akari**
You should know I'm not that easy!
**[21:30] Jiro**
Jeez... There are some lies that
are just *not* okay, you know!
**[21:34] Jiro**
But, yeah... Yeah, of course.
**[21:36] Akari**
Come on. You could act a *little*
disappointed, couldn't you?
**[21:40] Jiro**
Well, of course I'm disappointed.
**[21:45] Jiro**
I mean, I'm still a virgin.
**[21:48] Jiro**
Ow! That hurts! Ow! Ow! Ow!
**[21:50] Jiro**
I'm sorry!
**[21:51] Jiro**
Of course you'd never do that
with a guy like me, right?
**[21:54] Jiro**
I was being presumptuous!
**[21:55] Akari**
It's not that!
**[21:57] Akari**
I'd never do that when I know
you have Sakurazaka-san.
**[22:01] Jiro**
Huh? What did you say?
**[22:04] Akari**
"I hate that my first time was
with a girl I don't even love."
**[22:07] Akari**
"I wish it had been Sakurazaka-san instead."
**[22:09] Akari**
That's how you felt, right?
**[22:10] Jiro**
Hey, I can't hear you!
**[22:12] Akari**
Why don't you just say that?
**[22:14] Jiro**
I don't know what you're saying!
**[22:16] Akari**
I hate you, Jiro.

**[00:03] Kamo**
Did something happen
between you and your wife?
**[00:07] Jiro**
What d'you mean?
**[00:08] Kamo**
Every break, you run away and hide here.
**[00:12] Kamo**
It made me wonder if you
didn't want to see her.
**[00:14] Jiro**
N-Nothing special happened.
**[00:16] Kamo**
Huh...
**[00:18] Jiro**
* I mean, Akari's been the*
* same as always since then.*
**[00:21] Kamo**
Oh, the Slie Pinca Dold
spell works on that guy.
**[00:25] Jiro**
*Sleeping cuddled?*
**[00:27] Jiro**
* No, not "sleeping cuddled"!*
* He said "Slie Pinca Dold"!*
**[00:33] Shiori**
It's going to take a while to move all these.
**[00:37] Natsumi**
Those going to the trash pickup site?
**[00:38] Sachi**
They must be heavy. We'll carry them.
**[00:41] Natsumi**
Peace!
**[00:42] Shiori**
Ohashi-san! Takamiya-san!
**[00:44] Shiori**
Thank you.
**[00:45] Natsumi**
Leave it to us! This'll be
a piece of cake for Sachi!
**[00:48] Sachi**
Hey, you're helping, too!
**[00:50] Sachi**
But for real, who would dump
all this on just one person?
**[00:53] Shiori**
I didn't have anything else to do,
so I ended up saying I'd do it.
**[00:57] Natsumi**
Sakurazaka-san, you're way too nice.
**[00:59] Sachi**
Hey, you there! Slouchy!
**[01:02] Sachi**
Come here.
**[01:03] Kamo**
She means you.
**[01:04] Jiro**
She means *you*.
**[01:05] Kamo**
Otakus first.
**[01:06] Jiro**
That's you, too!
**[01:06] Sachi**
I mean both of you! You're both slouching!
**[01:07] Kamo**
No, no, no!
**[01:09] Sachi**
Get over here and help Sakurazaka-san.
**[01:13] Jiro**
Shiori?
**[01:14] Jiro**
*You gotta be kidding me!*
**[01:18] Kamo**
Can someone so slouchy even
be of service, I wonder?

Taking out the trash is life!
Taking out the trash is everything!
**[01:29] Kamo**
I'd whale in a game to take out trash!
**[01:31] Jiro**
I worry for his future.
**[01:33] Sachi**
You, too, Akari's husband.
Stop spacing out and get moving.
**[01:36] Jiro**
Yes, ma'am!
**[01:37] Sachi**
How should we divide it up?
**[01:39] Natsumi**
The two of us will take these three.
One for me, two for Glasses-kun.
**[01:43] Kamo**
Absolutely!
**[01:44] Sachi**
Okay.
**[01:45] Sachi**
I can handle these two, so Sakurazaka-san
and Slouchy-kun can take that big one.
**[01:50] Shiori**
T-Takamiya-san, please,
let's carry it together!
**[01:54] Shiori**
...carry it together!

*Sob.*
***SIGN*** Jiro has suffered
near-fatal damage
**[02:00] Kamo**
Hey, what's wrong? Got the runs?
**[02:02] Kamo**
The restroom in the gym is the closest.
**[02:05] Jiro**
My heart...
**[02:06] Kamo**
Huh?
**[02:07] Sachi**
Sorry. I guess most people wouldn't
want to do this as a guy-girl pair, huh?
**[02:10] Sachi**
Pair up with me instead.
**[02:13] Shiori**
Okay. Thank you.
**[02:16] Natsumi**
Um...
***SIGN*** Josui Ryokuchi
**[02:23] Akari**
Yum! This new flavor is amazing!
**[02:27] Sachi; Natsumi**
Right? Right?
**[02:28] Sachi**
It's yummy, right?
**[02:29] Natsumi**
It's crazy good, isn't it?
**[02:33] Sachi; Natsumi**
Hey, do you...
**[02:36] Natsumi**
My question will take a while,
so you go ahead, Sachi.
**[02:39] Sachi**
Well, mine isn't exactly light
conversation either, so I'll go after.
**[02:42] Natsumi**
Mine's probably heavier.
**[02:44] Sachi**
No, no, I know mine is...
**[02:46] Akari**
Just play rock-paper-scissors!
**[02:49] Sachi; Natsumi**
Rock, paper, scissors!
**[02:51] Akari; Natsumi**
Go ahead!
**[02:54] Sachi**
Akari!
**[02:55] Akari**
Huh?
**[02:56] Sachi**
So... If you're being totally honest,
what do you think of Yakuin?
**[03:00] Sachi**
You've avoided the topic all this time...
**[03:03] Sachi**
But it's not like you don't feel
anything for him at all, right?
**[03:07] Akari**
I-It's not... I mean...
**[03:10] Sachi**
*Oh, jeez. She's not even denying it anymore.*
**[03:14] Sachi**
I get it. I mean, I'm your best friend.
**[03:16] Sachi**
That's why it really hurts
to watch you right now.
**[03:19] Natsumi**
Akari, what about Minami-kun?
**[03:21] Natsumi**
Before, you'd squee just from
seeing his name on the class roster.
**[03:25] Akari**
Minami-kun and Sakurazaka-san
seem to really be hitting it off.
**[03:29] Akari**
It makes me wonder if I'm
just getting in the way.
**[03:32] Sachi**
Of course you're not!
**[03:34] Sachi**
Everyone's just trying to
look good for the practical.
**[03:37] Akari**
But...
**[03:37] Natsumi**
And it's not like we're saying you
shouldn't turn toward Virgin-kun.
**[03:42] Natsumi**
I just don't want you to get
swept up in the mood, that's all.
**[03:45] Sachi**
That's right.
**[03:47] Sachi**
Yakuin might've been like that with
any wife, even if it wasn't you.
**[03:51] Sachi**
Just give it some calm, rational thought.
**[03:54] Akari**
Even if it wasn't me... You're right.
**[03:58] Natsumi**
Akari! Cheer up!
**[04:01] Sachi**
That's right. Quit moping around.
**[04:03] Sachi**
It's not like those two are
your only options, anyway.
**[04:07] Akari**
That tickles, you two!
**[04:11] Akari**
I'll see you tomorrow!
**[04:14] Natsumi**
See you tomorrow!
**[04:17] Natsumi**
Hey, Virgin-kun and Sakurazaka-san
haven't started dating, right?
**[04:23] Sachi**
I don't know. It seemed like something
happened between them, but...
**[04:25] Natsumi**
Akari doesn't know about
Sakurazaka-san's feelings, right?
**[04:29] Natsumi**
What if Akari says she really
wants to be with Virgin-kun?
**[04:33] Sachi**
That'd be fine.
**[04:34] Sachi**
It's not like Akari has to give up
on him because of Sakurazaka-san.
**[04:38] Sachi**
I just want her to give serious
thought to what she wants for herself.
**[04:42] Sachi**
Akari is so conscientious of the people
around her. How does she truly feel?
**[04:46] Natsumi**
Sachi...
**[04:47] Sachi**
If only something would happen that
could serve as a decisive moment for her.
**[04:50] Sachi**
I'd support her in any way I could.
**[04:53] Sachi**
There's gotta be some way...

**[06:31] Akari**
Hey, it's way too loose!
**[06:34] Akari**
It's supposed to be tight enough that
you can only fit your index finger in it.
**[06:37] Akari**
Come on, pull it as tight as you can.
**[06:39] Jiro**
That's easy for you to say...
**[06:44] Akari**
Virgin.
**[06:45] Jiro**
That has nothing to do with this.
**[06:47] Jiro**
Jeez... It's not like you *have* to go out
of your way to wear a yukata, y'know.
**[06:51] Akari**
What? Minami-kun will be there.
I can't just wear what I usually wear!
**[06:56] Jiro**
Even if Tenjin's there, it's not like you'll
be walking around the place together.
**[07:00] Akari**
Girls can't afford to relax,
even for a moment.
**[07:03] Jiro**
*All she ever does around me is relax.*
**[07:05] Jiro**
*Is she saying she doesn't see me as a man?*
**[07:08] Akari**
Oh, the way this one's tied is pretty cute!
**[07:08] Jiro**
*Like what happened the other morning.*
**[07:10] Jiro**
*She leaves herself way too open.*
**[07:12] Jiro**
* If I untied this cord, she'd*
* be left in her underwear!*
**[07:12] Akari**
Oh, this one's nice, too!
**[07:14] Jiro**
*Does she realize that?*
**[07:16] Akari**
Hey, Jiro, which do you think...
**[07:19] Akari**
And what is that about?
**[07:20] Jiro**
Oh, nothing.
**[07:21] Akari**
You're not looking me in the eye, though.
**[07:23] Jiro**
Please don't let it bother you.
**[07:25] Akari**
Come on, do it right!
My love is on the line here!

***SIGN*** Kai-no-kuchi knot
For both men and women, this is our
recommendation for couples who want
to match! Simple and impossible to mess up,
it gives a snappy impression. With its air of
maturity, it's a perfect match for chic yukata.
**[07:30] Akari**
Which one do you like?
**[07:32] Akari**
And you can't say "all of them."
**[07:33] Jiro**
What? I don't really know...
**[07:36] Jiro**
Maybe this ribbon bow style?
**[07:38] Akari**
What? It's so childish, though!
**[07:40] Akari**
Anything but that, I think.
**[07:42] Jiro**
Why'd you even ask, then?!
**[07:43] Akari**
Unlike you, Minami-kun
likes more mature styles.
**[07:47] Akari**
Oh! I'll do this one, thanks!
**[07:49] Jiro**
Yes, of course. As you command.
**[07:52] Jiro**
Why am I doing this?
**[07:53] Akari**
What's this? Are you jealous?
**[07:56] Jiro**
I am not.
**[07:57] Akari**
Oh, really? What a brat.
**[07:59] Akari**
Well, you just watch the fireworks
from the veranda all alone and lonely.
**[08:04] Akari**
And while you're doing that, Minami-kun
and I will have a nice mood going.
**[08:07] Akari**
Now, tie me already.
**[08:09] Akari**
Oh, right! Don't bother calling

**[08:13] Akari**
I'll be busy with Minami-kun.
**[08:15] Jiro**
*This little...*
**[08:20] Jiro**
We've cleared the hard part.
**[08:22] Jiro**
All that's left is to tuck in the ends.
**[08:24] Jiro**
I'll turn it around to the front so you—
**[08:25] Akari**
Okay, go ahead.
**[08:26] Jiro**
What?
**[08:26] Akari**
Huh? What do you mean, "what"?
**[08:29] Jiro**
Nothing.
**[08:31] Jiro**
Okay, suck in your stomach for me.
**[08:33] Akari**
Wow, that's a super rude thing to say.
**[08:36] Jiro**
Okay, then, excuse my hands.
**[08:39] Akari**
What're you saying that for?
**[08:42] Jiro**
*Don't give me that!*
**[08:43] Jiro**
* Yukata fabric is so thin,*
* I can feel everything.*
**[08:46] Jiro**
* How she's soft, warm, so slender*
* it seems like she might snap in half...*
**[08:50] Jiro**
* Damn it! Why am I the only*
* one affected by this?*
**[08:52] Jiro**
*I'm so pathetic.*
**[08:57] Jiro**
Akari, it's not too tight?
**[09:00] Akari**
No, it's fine. Thanks, Jiro.
**[09:05] woman**
It's so pretty!
**[09:09] woman**
We have to get yakisoba, right?
**[09:10] man**
Really?
**[09:12] Natsumi**
Akari, you look so cute!
**[09:14] Sachi**
Forget lucky underwear,
you wore a lucky yukata!
**[09:17] Natsumi**
It looks so good on you!
**[09:18] Natsumi**
Light blue was totally the right choice.
**[09:20] Akari**
Thanks.
**[09:22] Akari**
The pink looks great on you, too, Natsumi!
**[09:24] Natsumi**
Akari, you always compliment me! I love you!
**[09:27] Sachi**
I complimented you, too!
**[09:29] Natsumi**
Oh, that's right.
**[09:29] Natsumi**
I love you!
**[09:31] Sachi**
Tenjin and the other guys should be here soon.
**[09:34] Akari**
Other guys? Like Terafune?
**[09:36] Sachi**
Yeah.
**[09:36] Natsumi**
We've laid the groundwork with everyone
other than Minami-kun, so it's all set.
**[09:40] Natsumi**
Isn't that great, Akari?
**[09:41] Akari**
What? You told everyone?!
That's super embarrassing!
**[09:44] Natsumi**
It's not like it matters now.

That's right. And that's why
no one tries anything with you.
**[09:52] Akari**
Are you serious?
**[09:53] Sachi**
Don't worry, Akari.
**[09:55] Sachi**
If you can get even a little

**[09:57] Natsumi**
Don't let it get you all worked up!
We're all here with you.

That's right! Be confident!
**[10:05] Akari**
Yukata...
**[10:07] Akari**
*The yukata that Jiro dressed me in.*
**[10:11] Akari**
*I'll show Minami-kun this yukata.*

Huh? Where's Minami-kun?
**[10:47] Terafune; Takeshita; Wajiro**
We're really sorry!
**[10:48] Sachi**
Hey. What do you mean by that?
Explain yourselves.
**[10:52] Terafune**
Well... he said something about
his job calling him in to help.
**[10:55] Sachi**
What?!
**[10:56] Terafune**
The fireworks festival brought
in a flood of customers.
**[10:59] Terafune**
He's just such a nice guy...
**[11:00] Terafune**
I couldn't stop him.
**[11:02] Sachi**
If Tenjin isn't coming,
there's no point to the rest of this!
**[11:05] Terafune**
You're right. Sorry.
**[11:08] Sachi**
Forget about me introducing you to any girls.
**[11:10] Wajiro; Takeshita**
Takamiya-sama!
**[11:12] Terafune**
Watanabe, I'm really sorry.
**[11:15] Akari**
Don't worry about it! Actually,
I'm sorry you got dragged into this.
**[11:18] Akari**
Thanks, Terafune.
**[11:20] Terafune**
Um, I'll treat you to
something as an apology.
**[11:23] Terafune**
What do you want to eat?
Or we could go look around and—
**[11:26] Sachi**
Okay, get going!
**[11:28] Terafune**
Takamiya...
**[11:29] Sachi**
Three yakisoba, two takoyaki,
and three candied apples.
**[11:33] Sachi**
Then we'll call it even.
**[11:35] Takeshita**
Takamiya-sama!
**[11:37] Wajiro**
We are grateful and overjoyed!
**[11:39] Terafune**
What?
**[11:39] Wajiro**
At 7:30 pm, Terafune was arrested
on suspicion of hitting on someone.
**[11:40] Terafune**
Hey, get off!
**[11:41] Terafune**
I'll go! Let go of me!
**[11:43] Terafune**
Crap.
**[11:43] Terashita**
We will now begin the interrogation.
**[11:45] Terafune**
Cut it out!
**[11:46] Natsumi**
Huh... Didn't know that about Terafune-kun.
**[11:49] Sachi**
Sorry, Akari.
**[11:50] Sachi**
We said we'd create a chance for you,
and things turned out like this.
**[11:54] Akari**
It's okay. Thanks. I'm grateful to all of you.

**[12:01] Sachi**
Yeah. We should go after them.
Wait here a sec.
**[12:04] Akari**
Okay.
**[12:09] Akari**
* I wore a yukata because*
* Minami-kun was coming.*
**[12:11] Akari**
*I put a lot of effort into my makeup,*
**[12:13] Akari**
*and I spent more time than usual on my hair.*
**[12:18] Akari**
*I thought this would be my chance.*
**[12:20] Akari**
* I thought if I saw Minami-kun here,*
* something would change.*
**[12:25] Akari**
* So why did I feel relieved when*
* I heard Minami-kun couldn't make it?*
**[12:30] Akari**
*I love Minami-kun.*
**[12:33] Akari**
*Chasing after Minami-kun like I used to...*
**[12:37] Akari**
* Simply acting out the role of*
* Jiro's wife like I used to...*
**[12:41] Akari**
* But... things changing to*
* be like that is still...*
**[12:45] Akari**
It's still scary to me.
**[12:47] Akari**
I know I'm not the one next to either of them.
**[12:51] Akari**
Once I make a choice, I'll never again...
**[12:55] Wajiro**
Terafune, just give up already.
**[12:57] Terafune**
No! Watanabe said she likes fish.
**[13:00] Wajiro**
Pretty sure she meant she likes to *eat* fish.
**[13:03] Akari**
No, no! Why am I getting
all discouraged now?
**[13:07] Akari**
Everyone's cheering me on!
I have to do my best!
**[13:09] Akari**
I know! I could stop by where he works!

Wow, look!
**[13:13] female HS student 1**
Hey, he's pretty hot!
**[13:15] female HS student 2**
Do you think he's famous?
**[13:17] female HS student 1**
But the girl with him
seems like his girlfriend.
**[13:21] Akari**
Minami-kun...
**[13:23] Akari**
He said he was working...
**[13:30] Terafune**
Maybe it's time to bow out
gracefully and give up.
**[13:35] Terafune**
But why?
**[13:37] Terafune**
I've tried so hard.
**[13:44] Sachi**
We're back, Akari!
**[13:45] Natsumi**
We've got fresh baby castella cakes!
**[13:48] Natsumi**
What's wrong? You look a little pale.
**[13:51] Akari**
Do I? Sorry, I just...
**[13:54] Akari**
I'm not used to wearing a yukata.
It might be too tight.
**[13:57] Sachi**
Really?
**[13:57] Natsumi**
Akari, you should go home for today.
**[14:00] Natsumi**
Minami-kun isn't coming anyway, right?
**[14:02] Sachi**
That's right! Let's start
looking for the next chance!
**[14:06] Akari**
Yeah.
**[14:08] Akari**
Thanks.
**[14:11] Minami**
That was a heck of a crowd.
**[14:13] Minami**
Maybe we should've taken
a different street. Sorry.
**[14:16] Shiori**
It's okay. The shortest route to the
supermarket is through the shrine grounds.
**[14:22] Minami**
Well, my work is that way.
**[14:25] Minami**
Sorry to make you go shopping all the time.
**[14:27] Minami**
I'll go buy the heavy stuff tomorrow.
**[14:30] Shiori**
Don't worry! Just leave it to me!
**[14:32] Shiori**
We're a married couple, after all.
**[14:34] Shiori**
We have to do our best
to help each other out!
**[14:37] Shiori**
And this is something that will
affect your college references.
**[14:40] Minami**
You really saved me here. Thanks.
**[14:44] Shiori**
Be careful out there!
**[14:49] Shiori**
A fireworks festival...
**[14:52] Shiori**
I wonder if Jiro-kun went...
**[15:02] Jiro**
Oh, man.
**[15:05] Jiro**
Did I catch a chill after my bath?
**[15:07] (Flashback) Akari**
And while you're doing that, Minami-kun
and I will have a nice mood going.
**[15:12] Jiro**
I wonder if Akari's got a
nice mood going right now.
**[15:16] Jiro**
*What'd she mean by a "nice mood," anyway?*
**[15:19] Jiro**
*Like... a kiss?*
**[15:25] Jiro**
*Holding hands, hugging, kissing...*
**[15:30] Jiro**
* They're the same things, but if Tenjin*
* does them, will it make him her boyfriend?*
**[15:34] Jiro**
*What about me, then?*
**[15:35] Jiro**
* If we change our pairings and I'm*
* not her mock husband anymore,*
**[15:38] Jiro**
*then I'll be...*
**[15:40] Jiro**
...a friend?
**[15:41] Jiro**
No. Just a classmate?
**[15:45] Jiro**
* We've spent every day*
* together for so long now,*
**[15:47] Jiro**
*but with the "married couple" aspect gone...*
**[15:50] Jiro**
*Will there really be nothing left?*
**[15:53] Jiro**
I did all that stuff with her
before Tenjin, though...
**[16:00] Jiro**
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Just who do I think I am?!

But doesn't the obi make it hard to breathe?

*I'm rooting for her to be with Tenjin, but...*

*When I heard her crying through the phone...*

*When I realized that she'd come home...*
**[21:52] Jiro**
*Why did I feel relieved?*
**[21:55] Jiro**
The timing didn't work out this time,

but there'll be more fireworks
festivals this year and next year.
**[22:01] Akari**
Yeah. Thanks.
**[22:04] Jiro**
*We're a married couple,*

**[02:41] Jiro**
Th-Thirteenth.
**[02:43] Akari**
What?! Just three places short?
**[02:45] Akari**
We were super close! That's so annoying.
**[02:48] Jiro**
I'm pretty sure the pair in fifth
started dating last month.
**[02:52] Akari**
For real? Well, there's no
way we could beat that.
**[02:57] Akari**
Oh, well. No helping it now.
**[03:00] Akari**
I'll be counting on you for another month,
**[03:02] Akari**
darling.
**[03:04] Jiro**
Yeah.
**[03:09] Jiro**
I dunno...
**[03:12] Jiro**
*I never found out what happened that day,*
**[03:15] Jiro**
* and Akari went back to normal,*
* like nothing had happened.*
**[03:19] Jiro**
* But she cried so much, and she still*
* seems determined to switch partners.*
**[03:24] Jiro**
*Is that how much she wants to be with Tenjin?*
**[03:27] Akari**
Jiro!
**[03:29] Akari**
This is terrible!
**[03:32] Jiro**
What is it? What happened?
**[03:37] Akari**
That creep showed up! Help me!
**[03:40] Jiro**
Huh? What creep?
**[03:41] Akari**
Please! Please! Please!
Hurry! Hurry, Jiro!
**[03:45] Jiro**
Calm down, Akari! *Who* showed up?
**[03:48] Akari**
A spider!
**[03:52] Jiro**
Don't barge in on me in the
bath over a stupid spider!
**[03:54] Jiro**
I'm stark naked here!
**[03:55] Akari**
What do you mean, "a stupid spider"?
**[03:57] Akari**
And who cares about a body like yours?!
**[03:59] Jiro**
Whoa! That counterattack hit hard!
**[04:01] Akari**
I don't care!
**[04:02] Akari**
Just do something about that creep right now!
**[04:05] Akari**
I can't go back into the living room!
**[04:07] Jiro**
Wait, wait, wait, wait!
**[04:08] Jiro**
Get me my towel and clothes first!
**[04:13] Jiro**
So?
**[04:14] Jiro**
Where is this spider?
**[04:20] Akari**
It... It's gone!
**[04:23] Jiro**
Stay calm. How big was it?
**[04:25] Akari**
About this big.
**[04:27] Jiro**
Huh? That's tiny!
**[04:28] Akari**
It doesn't matter how small it is!
I can't handle spiders!
**[04:32] Jiro**
All right, I get it. Sorry.
**[04:34] Jiro**
*I'm dealing with hugeness myself.*
**[04:36] Akari**
It might suddenly show up again.
**[04:40] Jiro**
*She's cute when she's meek and quiet.*
**[04:42] Akari**
Hey, I want a snack.
**[04:44] Jiro**
Go ahead.
**[04:45] Akari**
Come to the kitchen with me!
**[04:47] Jiro**
Huh?
**[04:48] Akari**
Okay. Forward!
**[04:49] Jiro**
* But that's only when she's*
* being meek and quiet.*
**[04:54] Akari**
I ate too much.
**[04:55] Akari**
Gotta do my nails next.
**[04:57] Jiro**
How long should I stay here?
**[05:00] Akari**
Well... until the spider
shows up and you catch it.
**[05:04] Jiro**
Oh, come on. If you call for me,
I'll come right back.
**[05:07] Akari**
Then I'm calling for you now.
**[05:09] Akari**
It'll be scary if it suddenly shows up again.
**[05:11] Jiro**
*The feel of that hugeness against my leg!*
**[05:20] Akari**
Jiro...
**[05:24] Akari**
Come with me?
**[05:25] Jiro**
*Are you serious?!*
**[05:29] Akari**
Jiro! You're there, right?
**[05:32] Jiro**
Yes.
**[05:34] Akari**
Cover your ears, okay?
**[05:36] Jiro**
*Right! The sound!*
**[05:38] Akari**
Jiro?
**[05:38] Jiro**
I said I'm here!
**[05:39] Akari**
You can still hear!
**[05:41] Jiro**
I was just about to cover my ears!
**[05:42] Jiro**
*It's no good.*
**[05:44] Jiro**
* I can't help but imagine what's happening*
* in there, even if I don't want to!*
**[05:46] Jiro**
*Please, hurry up and come out!*
**[05:48] Jiro**
*While my conscience still lives!*
**[05:53] Akari**
Sorry to keep you waiting.
**[05:57] Jiro**
I'll go, too. Saves me having to come back.
**[06:00] Jiro**
I know! It'll just take a few seconds!
**[06:08] Akari**
*I wish I could die!*
**[06:10] Akari**
*This is the worst! The absolute worst!*
**[06:12] Akari**
* Asking him to come to the*
* bathroom with me is so wrong!*
**[06:14] Akari**
*I'm so embarrassed, I just want to disappear.*
**[06:17] Akari**
* But since it's Jiro, I figured he'd*
* come with me instead of saying no.*
**[06:22] Akari**
*I'm glad Jiro's the one with me.*
**[06:25] Akari**
* I'd never be able to ask Minami-kun*
* for something like this.*
**[06:31] Jiro**
Here.
**[06:34] Jiro**
Let's head back.
**[06:36] Akari**
You washed your hands?
**[06:37] Jiro**
Freshly washed!
**[06:42] Akari**
Thanks.
**[06:47] Jiro**
*And after the way she was just minutes ago...*
**[06:50] Jiro**
*I really am living with a gyaru.*
**[06:53] Jiro**
* At first, I thought it'd never work,*
* but somehow or other...*
**[06:57] Akari**
Hey, I want some of that, too.
**[06:59] Jiro**
Oh, there's some in the freezer.
**[07:01] Akari**
What?
**[07:01] Akari**
I can't go. I'm scared of the spider.
**[07:03] Akari**
I just want one bite, so yours is fine.
**[07:05] Jiro**
Then I'll get a spoon and—
**[07:07] Akari**
Nope!
**[07:08] Akari**
I can't use my hands.
**[07:10] Akari**
Oh, you're thinking about
indirect kisses now, aren't you?
**[07:13] Akari**
You're such a little kid!
**[07:15] Jiro**
*Why would you bring that up right now?*
**[07:17] Akari**
Come on, hurry up.
**[07:19] Akari**
It's yours I want, Jiro. Give it to me.
**[07:22] Jiro**
*O spirits, calm thyselves!*
**[07:22] spirits**
Jewels! Jewels! Family jewels!
**[07:27] Jiro**
Here.
**[07:37] Jiro**
What?
**[07:39] Akari**
You used to like chocolate ice cream.
**[07:42] Akari**
Do you think we're getting to be more alike?
**[07:45] Jiro**
Hey, did something good happen to you today?
**[07:48] Akari**
Huh? Nothing in particular. You're funny.
**[07:55] Akari**
Hey, hypothetically speaking...
**[07:57] Akari**
If you and I had met somewhere else,
what do you think would've happened?
**[08:02] Jiro**
We never would have talked, probably.
**[08:05] Akari**
What? You're so mean.
**[08:07] Akari**
I think I might've wanted to meet
a Jiro who wasn't my husband.
**[08:11] Jiro**
Huh?
**[08:12] Akari**
You'd be hilarious, with all your
gloom-and-doom on display.
**[08:15] Akari**
But we don't have anything in common,
so we wouldn't have hit it off.
**[08:19] Jiro**
The other pairs are probably like that, too.
**[08:21] Akari**
But the fifth-place pair are dating, right?
**[08:23] Jiro**
Well, they're sort of an exception.
**[08:26] Akari**
Should we try dating, too?
**[08:35] Akari**
Just kidding!
**[08:37] Akari**
Look! I think my nails turned
out really nice today!
**[08:41] Akari**
Do you mind if I turn on the TV?
**[08:43] Jiro**
G-Go ahead.
**[08:44] Jiro**
*Why did I think about it for a second?*
**[08:49] Jiro**
*There's no way she was serious about it!*
**[08:51] Jiro**
* If she were serious, she*
* wouldn't say it so casually.*
**[08:54] Jiro**
*If she were serious...*
**[08:56] Jiro**
*what answer would I have given her?*
**[09:00] Akari**
*If we weren't a married couple...*
**[09:02] Akari**
* If we'd met while I had no idea*
* Jiro loved someone else...*
**[09:13] Akari**
Spider! Spider! Spider!
**[09:15] Jiro**
Huh?! What?!
**[09:16] Jiro**
You mean that? It's tiny!
**[09:18] Akari**
Please! Do something, Jiro!
**[09:19] Jiro**
W-W-Wait! Wait! Wait!
**[09:21] Jiro**
Akari! Let go!
**[09:24] Akari**
Jiro!
**[09:25] Jiro**
* Th-This hot sensation*
* on the back of my hand...*
**[09:29] Jiro**
A-Akari...
**[09:32] Akari**
Why are you just sitting there spacing out?!
Hurry up and do something!
**[09:36] Jiro**
I will! I'll do something!
Just please let go of me!
**[09:41] Jiro**
Here.
**[09:42] Jiro**
I'll buy this for next time.
**[09:45] Akari**
No.
**[09:46] Jiro**
What do you mean, "no"?
**[09:47] Akari**
I don't wanna touch it after I've sprayed it.
**[09:50] Jiro**
You say that now, but what if
your next husband hates bugs?
**[09:54] Akari**
It won't be a problem.
**[09:55] Akari**
Because if I call for a certain someone,
he'll come right away.
**[09:58] Akari**
Right?
**[10:01] Jiro**
* Don't go skipping a beat there, heart.*
* She's just toying with you!*
**[10:04] Akari**
Well, goodnight, darling!
**[10:08] Jiro**
Seriously... What am I, your bug exterminator?
**[10:12] Jiro**
In any case, I'll be counting on
you for a little while longer,
**[10:15] Jiro**
Akari.
**[10:50] Tenjin**
Shiori? What's wrong?
**[10:52] Shiori**
Minami-kun.
**[10:54] Tenjin**
Something on your mind?
**[10:55] Tenjin**
You can talk to me about it,
though I'm not sure if I'll be any help.
**[10:59] Shiori**
Thank you.
**[11:00] Shiori**
Remember when I told you about my friend
who reunited with a boy she liked?
**[11:05] Tenjin**
Yeah.
**[11:06] Shiori**
It's about that friend again...
**[11:08] Tenjin**
Okay.
**[11:09] Shiori**
Th...
**[11:10] Shiori**
They kissed.
**[11:12] Shiori**
I-It was an accident! They aren't dating yet.
**[11:16] Shiori**
But she doesn't know how to face him anymore.
**[11:20] Shiori**
I don't—I mean, she doesn't
know how the boy feels about her,
**[11:25] Shiori**
so she's worried that he didn't like it.
**[11:29] Shiori**
But the thing is...
**[11:30] Shiori**
Worrying about it made her realize
that she really does love him.
**[11:34] Shiori**
All she can think about
ever since then is that kiss.
**[11:39] Shiori**
But she doesn't know if she wants
to tell him how she feels or not.
**[11:42] Shiori**
She's scared.
**[11:44] Shiori**
What should she do, Minami-kun?
**[11:45] Shiori**
Minami-kun?!
**[11:47] Shiori**
Y-Your tea!
**[11:49] Tenjin**
Sorry, I wasn't looking.
**[11:51] Tenjin**
It's okay. The sofa didn't get wet.
**[11:53] Shiori**
Here's a towel.
**[11:58] Tenjin**
The reason she's scared must be because
she's hoping for something, right?
**[12:04] Tenjin**
But...
**[12:06] Tenjin**
If there's any possibility it'll work out,
I think she should try for it.
**[12:10] Tenjin**
The guy she wants to tell is the one
she was able to fall in love with.
**[12:13] Tenjin**
It'd be a waste if she ended
up being too late, like me.
**[12:16] Shiori**
I'm sorry, I...
**[12:19] Tenjin**
No, no, I didn't mean it like that.
**[12:21] Tenjin**
I don't want you—
**[12:23] Tenjin**
I mean, your friend—to have any regrets,
**[12:25] Tenjin**
and if I can help with that, I'd like to.
**[12:29] Shiori**
Thank you.
**[12:31] Shiori**
I'm glad I got paired with you, Minami-kun.
**[12:34] Tenjin**
Oh, I know. What about
asking if he hated the kiss?
**[12:38] Shiori**
That's just impossible!
**[12:39] Tenjin**
For your friend?
**[12:42] Tenjin**
"I think you should have more confidence."
**[12:44] Tenjin**
Tell your friend I said that.
**[12:48] Shiori**
Confidence?
**[12:53] Mei**
I'm telling you, you should be more
confident in yourself, Shiori.
**[12:56] Mei**
This off-the-shoulder look is nice!
**[12:58] Mei**
Yakuin's a guy, so he'll
like this kind of thing.
**[13:01] Shiori**
Come on, Mei-chan! We're picking
something out for *you* right now!
**[13:04] Mei**
But I just know you'd look cute if you wore it.
**[13:07] Shiori**
I know *you* would,
since you have such nice legs.
**[13:09] Shiori**
What do you think of this?
**[13:11] Mei**
I've got tan lines from my running shorts.
**[13:14] Shiori**
Then how about this?
I think the red would suit you!
**[13:16] Mei**
Stop thinking about what would suit me.
**[13:18] Mei**
I want you to pick out something *you* like.
**[13:21] Shiori**
What? But...
**[13:24] Mei**
After all, you'll be the one who sees it.
**[13:26] Mei**
I'll be wearing it the next
time we go to the movies.
**[13:29] Mei**
So make me into a me that you like.
**[13:35] Shiori**
I think I know how your fans feel now!
**[13:37] Shiori**
Anyone who dates you will be very happy!
**[13:40] Mei**
You say that so easily.
**[13:42] Mei**
There are people I can't
make happy, you know.
**[13:45] Shiori**
I'm sure those people just don't know
how wonderful you are, that's all.
**[13:49] Shiori**
Maybe I'll go tell them.
**[13:51] Mei**
How 'bout instead, you go hug Yakuin,
tell him everything's gonna be okay,
**[13:54] Mei**
and teach him why it's great to be an adult.
**[13:56] Mei**
Then just throw yourself at him right there!
**[13:59] Shiori**
M-Mei-chan, not so loud!
**[14:02] Terafune**
Hamano!
**[14:03] Mei**
Hey, what's up?
**[14:05] Terafune**
Hey.
**[14:06] Terafune**
I have an interview for a part-time
job today, so I won't need dinner.
**[14:08] Mei**
Okay. Is it that place you mentioned before?
**[14:11] Terafune**
Yeah. The place by the station, with the star.
**[14:13] Shiori**
Is that the same place as Minami-kun?
**[14:16] Terafune**
That's right.
**[14:16] Shiori**
Oh! I've been worried since Minami-kun
seemed to be working too hard lately,
**[14:20] Shiori**
but I feel better knowing you'll be with him!
**[14:22] Mei**
Yeah, this guy is surprisingly considerate.
**[14:25] Terafune**
Ooh, a rare word of praise from my wife.
**[14:27] Mei**
Hey!
**[14:28] Terafune**
Oh, right.
**[14:29] Terafune**
I asked Tenjin to do karaoke with me
after dinner, and we'll be going all night.
**[14:33] Terafune**
You two wives should eat together
and stay over at one of our places.
**[14:37] Mei**
Stay—
**[14:38] Terafune**
Sometimes spending the night
together is nice, right?
**[14:41] Terafune**
Just the two of you and a hot night.
**[14:43] Mei**
Are you seri—
**[14:44] Shiori**
That sounds nice!
**[14:45] Shiori**
Let's do it, Mei-chan!
**[14:46] Shiori**
Let's have a sleepover!
**[14:47] Mei**
Huh?
**[14:48] Shiori**
Oh, did you have other plans?
**[14:50] Mei**
No, but...
**[14:52] Terafune**
I'm not "surprisingly" considerate,
I'm *super* considerate, right?
**[14:55] Mei**
No one asked for your help!
**[14:57] Mei**
I never should have said anything to you!
**[14:59] Terafune**
So, that's what we're doing.
You two get along, okay?
**[15:01] Mei**
I swear...
**[15:02] Shiori**
I can't wait! What should we do for dinner?
**[15:05] Mei**
Yeah, what should we do?

**[15:24] Kamo's older brother**
Are you listening, Teranishi?
**[15:26] Kamo's older brother**
Mikkun is...
**[15:28] Terafune**
My name is Terafune.
**[15:29] Kamo's older brother**
He's working hard at my café so he
can move out after he graduates!
**[15:33] Kamo's older brother**
Why, you ask? Because Mikkun
and his older brother...
**[15:37] Kamo's older brother**
share a super tragic fate—
**[15:40] Tenjin**
You've had too much to drink, Kamo-san.
**[15:42] Tenjin**
And I told him all about this last year.
**[15:44] Kamo's older brother**
Yeah?
**[15:46] Kamo's older brother**
It must be rough having ikemen DNA, right?
**[15:49] Kamo's older brother**
Even your siblings are your rivals!
**[15:51] Kamo's older brother**
Makes us glad we're not ikemen
ourselves, right, Terashima?
**[15:53] Terafune**
My name is Terafune.
**[15:55] Terafune**
Tenjin, what's your older brother like again?
**[15:56] Terafune**
Do you guys look alike?
**[15:58] Tenjin**
He's just average.
**[15:59] Kamo's older brother**
An ikemen should never say that!
It insults all of us non-ikemen!
**[16:03] Kamo's older brother**
As punishment, drip-filter your
handsomeness and let us drink it!
**[16:06] Kamo's older brother**
Right, Terasaka?
**[16:07] Terafune**
My name is Terafune.
**[16:08] Kamo's older brother**
I sure am glad my little
brothers are average, though.
**[16:11] Tenjin**
Excuse me!
**[16:12] Tenjin**
Can we get some water?
**[16:12] Kamo's older brother**
Wait. Are they less than average?
**[16:13] server**
Of course. Coming right up.
**[16:14] Terafune**
Oh, you have little brothers?
**[16:16] Tenjin**
You didn't know? That guy with the
glasses in our class is one of them.
**[16:18] Tenjin**
The one who's friends with Yakuin.
**[16:21] Terafune**
Yakuin...
**[16:23] Tenjin**
Sure is a small world, huh?
**[16:27] Terafune**
I was so sure it wouldn't work out.
**[16:30] Terafune**
Why are they thirteenth?
**[16:32] Terafune**
I met Watanabe first!
**[16:34] Terafune**
What does he have that I don't?
**[16:37] Terafune**
Height and luck! That's about it!
**[16:38] Terafune**
Ugh. Those flaws are pretty fatal...
**[16:40] Kamo's older brother**
What?! Stories of unrequited love?!
**[16:42] Kamo's older brother**
Those are my favorite!
**[16:43] Tenjin**
Come on, Kamo-san. Drink some water.
**[16:48] Shiori**
Okay, it's decided!
**[16:49] Shiori**
We'll spend the night at my place.
**[16:51] Shiori**
You can use the bed, Mei-chan.
**[16:53] Mei**
Huh? N-No, I'll be fine sleeping on the floor.
**[16:56] Shiori**
No, I can't make you do that.
**[16:57] Shiori**
Oh! Should we open up the sofa in the
living room and sleep together instead?
**[17:01] Mei**
T-Together?!
**[17:03] Mei**
No, no, no.
**[17:04] Shiori**
Let's take a bath together, too!
**[17:07] Shiori**
A-Are you all right, Mei-chan?!
**[17:09] Mei**
Sorry.
**[17:10] Mei**
It went down the wrong pipe. I'm fine.
**[17:12] Shiori**
Oh, but I wanted to see
the old photos in your room.
**[17:17] Shiori**
You have them up, right?
**[17:18] Shiori**
Like the photo from when we won
that tournament in middle school!
**[17:21] Mei**
I don't have anything like that.
All my pictures are of family.
**[17:24] Shiori**
Oh, really?
**[17:25] Mei**
Do you have any old photos up?
**[17:28] Shiori**
Just a few.
**[17:30] Mei**
I'm looking forward to seeing little Shiori.
**[17:32] Shiori**
Oh, but it might be a little embarrassing.
**[17:36] Shiori**
Most of them are of me and Jiro-kun.
**[17:40] Mei**
*Of course.*
**[17:46] Mei**
Oh, sorry.
**[17:47] Mei**
My mom asked me to do something right away,
**[17:49] Mei**
so I have to go to my
parents' house from here.
**[17:51] Shiori**
What?
**[17:52] Mei**
Sorry! We'll do this another time, okay?

**[17:58] Kamo**
Why did I end up eating dinner with
the same guy I see all the time?
**[18:01] Jiro**
You're the one who invited me.
**[18:03] Kamo**
Well, my wife told me out of the
blue to go eat out somewhere.
**[18:07] Kamo**
I bet she's complaining
about me right now.
**[18:10] Jiro**
But things are going all right, aren't they?
**[18:12] Kamo**
Well, we aren't as cozy as someone
sitting in thirteenth place.
**[18:16] Jiro**
Cozy?
**[18:16] Kamo**
What do you mean, "kissed by accident"?
**[18:18] Kamo**
This isn't a harem anime.
**[18:20] Kamo**
How can an accident cause
lips to lock with lips?
**[18:23] Jiro**
I don't know what to tell you...
**[18:25] Kamo**
Hey, Jiro-chan.
It's almost summer, you know.
**[18:27] Akari**
Stupid Kamo. The way you use
your hands is so naughty.
**[18:28] Kamo**
I don't want a fake wife.
I want a girlfriend!
**[18:31] Kamo**
I want to try falling in
love in the 3D world, too!
**[18:33] Kamo**
No, I don't need love!
**[18:35] Kamo**
If I can escape virginhood, that's good enough!
**[18:37] Jiro**
If you have to actually say that,
you know it's impossible.
**[18:39] Kamo**
Shut up, you traitor!
**[18:41] Kamo**
We had an alliance.
**[18:42] Kamo**
And you call yourself my
childhood friend? Blast you!
**[18:44] Jiro**
Are you drunk or something?!
**[18:47] Jiro**
Hey. What's come over you all of a sudden?
**[18:50] Kamo**
I will cancel out your luck-based lechery.
**[18:54] Jiro**
What?
**[19:01] Shiori**
It's no use. When I'm alone, I can't help but...
***SIGN*** Kiss
***SIGN*** Chef's Kiss Marinated Maguro Bowl
**[19:16] Kamo**
I will use my lips to
overwrite the save data.
**[19:19] Jiro**
Hey, be serious! You're scaring me!
**[19:21] Jiro**
That won't just overwrite!
I'll suffer a physical crash!
**[19:22] Kamo**
It's simply an equivalent exchange.
**[19:25] Jiro**
No!
**[19:29] Jiro**
Huh?
***SIGN*** Shiori, it's not like that.
**[19:39] Kamo**
Ow!
**[19:39] Jiro**
Keep the change!
**[19:44] Shiori**
*There's something wrong with me.*
**[19:46] Shiori**
* Imagine reading "Chef's Kiss Marinated*
* Maguro Bowl" as just "Kiss Bowl."*
**[19:49] Jiro**
Shiori!
**[19:51] Shiori**
Jiro-kun?
**[19:52] Jiro**
You've got it all wrong!
It wasn't like that at all!
**[19:54] Shiori**
Huh?
**[19:55] Shiori**
Do you mean...
**[19:59] Jiro**
I just don't want you to misunderstand...
**[20:01] Jiro**
It was just kind of an accident...
**[20:03] Shiori**
Yeah. I know.
**[20:05] Shiori**
I'm the one who should apologize.
**[20:07] Shiori**
It's fine. I'm not bothered by it at all.
**[20:09] Jiro**
Thank goodness!
**[20:10] Jiro**
Kamo was panicking and
slipped into some weird mode.
**[20:13] Shiori**
Huh? Why are you mentioning Kamo-kun?
**[20:16] Jiro**
Huh? Well, Kamo was the one I was
goofing off with at that restaurant.
**[20:19] Shiori**
You were at a restaurant?
**[20:22] Jiro**
Huh?
**[20:23] Shiori**
Huh?
**[20:25] Jiro; Shiori**
Huh?
**[20:27] Shiori**
I-I'm so sorry! I think I was
talking about something else!
**[20:30] Jiro**
I'm sorry! I was mistaken, too.
**[20:32] Jiro**
Seriously, please forget all of it.
**[20:36] Jiro**
Th-That looks heavy.
**[20:38] Shiori**
Oh... I ended up buying too much.
**[20:41] Jiro**
I'll carry it. Oh, if you don't mind, that is.
**[20:44] Shiori**
What? Y-You don't mind?
**[20:46] Jiro**
Sure.
**[20:51] Jiro**
* If Shiori and I were married,*
* this is what it'd be like.*
**[20:55] Jiro**
* I'm probably the only one*
* thinking that way, though.*
**[20:59] Shiori**
It's funny, isn't it? When we're like
this, it's almost like we're marr—
**[21:02] Jiro**
Huh?
**[21:02] Shiori**
Nothing!
**[21:04] Jiro**
What? Come on, tell me.
**[21:05] Shiori**
It's nothing.
**[21:07] Shiori**
Thank you for carrying
this with me, Jiro-kun.
**[21:13] Shiori**
When I was in the nurse's office, too...
**[21:15] Jiro**
I'm sorry about that!
**[21:16] Jiro**
It was all my fault. I'm really sorry.
**[21:19] Shiori**
No, I—P-Please listen, Jiro-kun!
**[21:21] Shiori**
You don't have to apologize.
**[21:23] Jiro**
Huh?
**[21:24] Shiori**
I mean...
**[21:26] Shiori**
Uh...
**[21:29] Shiori**
I was the one who asked you to teach me.
**[21:33] Shiori**
And... I-I learned a lot.
**[21:38] Shiori**
That that's what a... k-kiss feels like...
**[21:43] Shiori**
It wasn't that I didn't want you to.
**[21:46] Shiori**
So... thank you.
**[21:50] Jiro**
*She's saying all this to me,*
**[21:52] Jiro**
* and she still wants me to*
* just stay her friend forever?*
**[22:04] Shiori**
It's even warm at night now, huh?
**[22:07] Shiori**
Shall we head home?
**[22:09] (Flashback) Shiori**
Let's head home, Jiro-kun!
**[22:12] Jiro**
*Soon, summer will be here again...*
**[22:14] Jiro**
*The third summer since Shiori came back.*

Sadaharu-kun, kiss me.
**[23:52] Kamo**
What is this? A dream?
**[23:53] Akari**
Your first kiss is with me! Right, Sada?
**[23:56] Kamo**
She called me Sada.
**[23:57] Shiori**
Why are you getting in the way?
**[23:58] Akari**
You're the one getting in the way!
**[23:59] Kamo**
Huh? Wait. You two?
**[24:01] Kamo**
A little further and...
**[24:02] Shiori; Akari**
Smooch.

***SIGN*** It's summer! It's the ocean! But I have no money...
Come Work With the Best Team!
Resort Café Dining Hall and Kitchen
Daily Wage 8,000 yen
Short-term lodging! All hair colors allowed!
**[00:28] Jiro**
A live-in summer job?
**[00:29] Kamo**
Yep.
**[00:31] Kamo**
The café where my older brother works is
running a pop-up shop as a summer event.
**[00:35] Kamo**
It's only for three days,
but he said they're short-staffed.
**[00:38] Jiro**
So you'll be doing this live-in summer job?
**[00:41] Kamo**
That's right.
**[00:42] Kamo**
Summer brings limited-time events to
dimensions other than this one, too.
**[00:46] Kamo**
And I really need the money, so I
instantly told my brother I'd do it.
**[00:50] Kamo**
The work is easy. It's the kind of thing
they'd give to temp workers, after all.
**[00:54] Jiro**
Huh...
**[00:57] Kamo**
So I sent in an application for you, too.
**[00:59] Jiro**
What?!
**[01:00] Jiro**
What the hell were you thinking?
I can't serve customers!
**[01:04] Jiro**
And living there would suck for
a guy with communication issues.
**[01:07] Kamo**
I know that!
**[01:12] Kamo**
That's exactly it!
**[01:14] Kamo**
An introvert like me is never gonna survive
alongside those lions known as "party people"!
**[01:19] Jiro**
So why are you going?
**[01:20] Kamo**
Summer is Marin-chan's season!
**[01:23] Kamo**
I have to get ready for
this year's swimsuit gacha!
**[01:25] Kamo**
I really need the money!
For Marin-chan's sake!
**[01:28] Kamo**
For Marin-chan's swimsuit gacha!
**[01:31] Kamo**
Marin-chan!
**[01:34] Shiori**
Here. You dropped this.
**[01:37] Jiro**
Hey, thanks...
**[01:39] Jiro**
*Shiori!*
**[01:42] Jiro**
Th-Thanks.
**[01:44] Shiori**
You're welcome.
**[01:45] Shiori**
Wait, that flyer...
**[01:48] Shiori**
Mei-chan and I applied for that job, too!
**[01:52] Shiori**
I wanted to see what having
a part-time job is like.
**[01:54] Jiro**
What? Really?
**[01:56] Shiori**
Yeah! And it's short-term, so it doesn't
overlap with the summer intensives!
**[01:59] Kamo**
For real? I did, too!
**[02:02] Shiori**
Kamo-kun, you applied, too?
Then we're the same!
**[02:05] Kamo**
Yeah! For some reason, this summer,
I wanted to be of use to others.
**[02:09] Kamo**
Jiro-chan and I are gonna
work ourselves to the bone!
**[02:12] Jiro**
Hey!
**[02:13] Shiori**
What?
**[02:14] Shiori**
Jiro-kun, you'll be there, too?
**[02:17] Jiro**
Y-Yeah.
**[02:19] Shiori**
Yay! I have even more to look forward to now!
**[02:22] Shiori**
Let's all work hard together!
**[02:27] Kamo**
It's win-win, right?
**[02:29] Jiro**
*A live-in job with Shiori...*
**[02:31] Jiro**
*A live-in job with Shiori...*
**[02:35] Shiori**
You cut your hand?
**[02:36] Shiori**
Pain, pain, go away!
**[02:39] Shiori**
I feel lonely all by myself.
**[02:41] Shiori**
Can I sleep with you?
**[02:43] Shiori**
My heart is pounding so fast, I can't sleep.
**[02:48] Jiro**
Adrenaline is flooding across my synapses!
**[02:51] Kamo**
Jiro-chan!
**[02:53] Jiro**
Huh? What?
**[02:54] Kamo**
I'll tell my brother about the job.
**[02:58] Kamo**
You go get your wife's okay for this.
I've already gotten it from mine.
**[03:01] Jiro**
Right.
**[03:02] Kamo**
Though I'm sure yours
won't have a problem with it.
**[03:05] Kamo**
While her husband's away,
she might bring in some other guys!
**[03:11] Akari**
Ah, welcome home, darling!
**[03:13] Akari**
Do you want to join in?
**[03:15] Kamo**
Oh, how dirty! Eek!
**[03:18] Jiro**
She's not like that.
**[03:21] Kamo**
*Oh, my.*
**[03:24] Kamo**
I hope this job will turn out to
be a decisive moment for you.
**[03:27] Jiro**
Huh? Say what?
**[03:29] Kamo**
Nothing. Just talking to myself.

I'm home!
**[05:07] Jiro**
She's not here? Oh, right.
She was going to be out today.
**[05:10] Akari**
Welcome home, Jiro.
**[05:12] Jiro**
What? You're back alrea—
**[05:14] Jiro**
...dy?!
**[05:22] Akari**
What do you think of this?
**[05:24] Jiro**
Wha? Wh-Wh-Wh...
**[05:29] Akari**
Is it cute?
**[05:32] Akari**
You're totally red!
**[05:34] Akari**
Over a simple swimsuit? That's hilarious!
**[05:37] Jiro**
*Uh, no way! A simple swimsuit?*
**[05:40] Jiro**
*A "simple" swimsuit?!*
**[05:42] Jiro**
*What happened to all the fabric?!*
**[05:45] Akari**
We're planning to go to the beach, so I
bought this with Sachi and Natsumi today.
**[05:51] Akari**
But do you think it's too risqué?
**[05:53] Akari**
I bought two suits, so maybe
I'll wear the other one.
**[06:11] Akari**
You're staring, you perv.
**[06:14] Jiro**
*Anyone would stare at that.*
**[06:16] Jiro**
I think that might be a bit much.
There's not a lot of fabric there.
**[06:20] Akari**
Why are you talking about fabric?
**[06:22] Akari**
The ties here are cute, aren't they?
**[06:25] Akari**
Look!
**[06:29] Akari**
Eek! That lustful look in your eyes!
**[06:32] Akari**
Oh, gosh! I'm so scared!
**[06:34] Jiro**
You told me to look!
**[06:37] Jiro**
Also, those are my clothes!
**[06:39] Akari**
Aw, what's the problem?
**[06:42] Jiro**
And is it Takamiya and
Ohashi you're going with?
**[06:45] Jiro**
Will there be guys?
**[06:47] Akari**
What? Does it bother you?
**[06:48] Jiro**
It's not that.
**[06:50] Jiro**
If you're wearing that, I'd actually
feel better if you had guys with you.
**[06:56] Jiro**
Oh, uh, sorry. Who do I think I am, right?
**[07:01] Jiro**
It's just... I don't think it'd
be as safe with just girls.
**[07:06] Akari**
It's not like that.
I'm going for a part-time job.
**[07:11] Jiro**
A job?
**[07:12] Akari**
A short-term job at a café near the ocean.
**[07:15] Akari**
I'll be staying there
starting Friday next week.
**[07:17] Jiro**
Really? There are a lot of
those this time of year.
**[07:21] Jiro**
But that's perfect. I got a live-in job, too,
and I wanted to talk to you about it.
**[07:25] Akari**
What? You got a part-time job?
**[07:27] Akari**
I can't picture that.
**[07:29] Jiro**
I can't, either. But Kamo says I have to.
**[07:33] Akari**
You two are joined at the hip, huh?
**[07:35] Jiro**
Don't say that! It's creepy! And...
**[07:38] Jiro**
Oh, right. Shiori will be there, too.
**[07:43] Jiro**
Apparently, she and Hamano applied together.
**[07:47] Jiro**
You're trying hard to make
things work with Tenjin, right?
**[07:50] Jiro**
I just thought I should start
making some moves, too.
**[07:54] Akari**
Oh.
**[07:57] Akari**
I see! So that's what your real goal is, huh?
**[08:00] Akari**
What a relief!
**[08:01] Akari**
If I left you on your own,
you'd end up eating just cup noodles,
**[08:04] Akari**
so I was on the fence about
whether I should go or not.
**[08:07] Jiro**
Really? Sorry.
**[08:09] Akari**
So we'll be apart for a little while, then.
**[08:11] Jiro**
Yeah, we will.
**[08:15] Akari**
Well? Does it make you feel lonely?
**[08:18] Jiro**
Huh? Why?
**[08:21] Akari**
Oh, right. Sakurazaka-san will be
there, so you won't be lonely.
**[08:25] Akari**
Huh. I see how it is.
**[08:27] Jiro**
Where's this coming from?
**[08:29] Akari**
Say you'll miss me.
**[08:34] Akari**
Say it!
**[08:35] Akari**
We're married, aren't we?
**[08:38] Jiro**
Oh, come on! The job is only for three days!
**[08:41] Jiro**
And we'll both be at our parents' places
for the whole month of August, right?
**[08:44] Akari**
Then it's even more important! Say it!
**[08:46] Jiro**
Why are you angry over this?
**[08:48] Jiro**
Get off of me!
**[08:49] Akari**
Nope. I dunno why, but I'm pissed now.
**[08:52] Akari**
I won't move until you say it.
**[08:56] Akari**
Say you'll feel lonely without me!
**[08:58] Jiro**
Hey! Are you kidding me?!
**[09:00] Akari**
Say it! Say it! Hurry up!
**[09:04] Jiro**
Akari-san! I'm begging you!
Please have mercy on me!
**[09:10] Akari**
You're making *me* feel lonely...
**[09:27] Akari**
I'm recharging my battery.
**[09:31] Jiro**
*Shit!*
**[09:35] Jiro**
*This electrical discharge...*
**[09:38] Jiro**
*It's now or never.*
**[09:42] Akari**
All done!
**[09:44] Jiro**
Huh?
**[09:44] Akari**
We won't earn any points for three days,
so we have to earn them now.
**[09:49] Jiro**
Right.
**[09:51] Jiro**
Anyway, Akari-san...
Aren't you going to change out of that?
**[09:55] Akari**
What? Do you not like this swimsuit?
**[09:58] Jiro**
No, that's not what I'm talking about here.
**[10:00] Akari**
I'm not sure which one
I want to wear, so tell me!
**[10:02] Akari**
Do you like it or not?
**[10:05] Jiro**
Well, I can't say I hate it, I guess.
**[10:08] Jiro**
I am a guy, after all.
**[10:10] Jiro**
It's normal for me to like it.
**[10:14] Akari**
Then I think I'll wear
the other one after all!
**[10:17] Jiro**
Hey! After you made me say all that?!
**[10:19] Akari**
Say...
**[10:20] Akari**
Go to the beach with me sometime, too.
**[10:23] Jiro**
Huh?
**[10:26] Akari**
This suit...
**[10:28] Akari**
will be just for you.
**[10:34] Akari**
It's sad that you'll only be seeing girls
and the ocean because of a job, anyway.
**[10:38] Akari**
You were probably planning to spend your
whole summer break gaming, right?
**[10:41] Jiro**
No one asked for your opinion!
**[10:43] Akari**
I'll make sure your summer is a fun one.
Be ready for it, okay?
**[10:48] Jiro**
*Why is she saying these things?*

Hiring staff for our STAR BOX COFFEE shop on the beach!!!!
This season has come again this year!
We'll be setting up our super-popular summer-only beachside shop this year, too!
Whether it's with your friends or with your significant other... please apply!
**[10:59] Akari; Jiro**
What?!
**[11:05] Natsumi**
There it is!
**[11:12] Natsumi**
Yay! Going ashore!
**[11:14] Kamo**
This sun is too dazzling
for a shadow-type like me.
**[11:17] Jiro**
And yet you seem to have
come here all ready to go.
**[11:19] Kamo**
This summer will be full of dramatic ups
and downs! And I'm gonna have them, too!
**[11:24] Shiori**
I've gotta work hard.
**[11:35] Tenjin**
And this is the lodging house.
**[11:37] Tenjin**
The whole place is reserved for us
as long as we're working here.
**[11:42] Tenjin**
The guys are over here.
**[11:44] Tenjin**
And the ladies' rooms are on that side.
**[11:46] Akari**
Minami-kun really is cool, isn't he?
**[11:49] Tenjin**
For now, leave your stuff here,
**[11:52] Tenjin**
then come to the café for training.
**[11:54] everyone but Tenjin**
Okay.
**[11:56] Kamo**
Well, then...
**[11:57] Sachi**
Wow, it's pretty big.
**[12:00] Natsumi**
There are futons here!
**[12:02] Sachi**
This is a nice place.
**[12:04] Natsumi**
The ocean's so close!
**[12:06] Akari**
Yoo-hoo!
**[12:09] Sachi**
Cut it out. You're not gonna hear an echo.
**[12:12] Natsumi**
I love you, Ryou-kun!
**[12:14] Sachi**
And we don't need confessions
of love like that, either.
**[12:17] Natsumi**
Oh, right! I brought a deck of cards.
**[12:19] Natsumi**
Let's all play together tonight.
**[12:21] Natsumi**
Hamano-san, you two, too!
**[12:22] Mei**
Count us in!
**[12:24] Terafune**
Me, too!
**[12:25] Terafune**
Let me play, too!
**[12:26] Natsumi**
Let's go.
**[12:27] Akari; Sachi**
Okay.
**[12:33] Akari**
Oh, wow! This uniform is so cute!
**[12:37] Natsumi**
It is! It actually gets me hyped up!
**[12:40] Sachi**
This isn't the right size, is it?
Maybe I'll ask for a different one.
**[12:43] Akari**
It's fine! Just show it off!
It's summer, after all!
**[12:46] Sachi**
What are you talking about?
**[12:47] Mei**
This is so cute, it makes me feel embarrassed.
**[12:50] Mei**
I don't usually wear this kind of thing.
**[12:52] Shiori**
Yeah, even your regular clothes
are on the sporty side.
**[12:55] Shiori**
But I'm really happy we get to match!
**[12:57] Shiori**
It suits you. You look very cute.
**[13:00] Mei**
Th-Thanks.
**[13:03] Kamo's older brother**
So, I think that does it for
the explanation of the shop.
**[13:07] Kamo's older brother**
Basically, you'll be split up
between the kitchen and the floor.
**[13:11] Kamo's older brother**
If you have a preference, grab an employee
during the lunch break and tell them.
**[13:15] everyone but Kamo's brother**
Yes, sir.
**[13:16] Kamo**
Man, I am seriously glad
you're here, Jiro-chan.
**[13:20] Kamo**
The design of this place is so stylish,
it makes me feel all insecure.
**[13:24] Jiro**
You sure put a lot of effort into
the outfit you wore here, though.
**[13:27] Jiro**
I didn't think you owned anything like that.
**[13:30] Kamo**
My brother bought them for me a while
back. He seemed weirdly energized.
**[13:34] Kamo**
He said something like, "You should
take a lesson from my friendliness!"
**[13:37] Kamo**
Seriously, who gave him
a compliment like that?
**[13:42] Kamo**
Still, I might have a chance
with one of the gyarus!
**[13:46] Kamo**
One must never fail to be prepared!
**[13:48] Kamo**
And I have my lucky item from this morning's
fortune, a knotted misanga bracelet!
**[13:52] Kamo**
All that's left is a chance encounter
with a girl who loves enka music.
**[13:57] Jiro**
*I just sort of stumbled into this summer job,*
**[14:00] Jiro**
* but getting to spend two nights with*
* Shiori when we aren't married...*
**[14:03] Jiro**
*This chance might never come again.*
**[14:06] Shiori**
Jiro-kun, are you choosing
the kitchen or the floor?
**[14:10] Jiro**
The kitchen... probably.
**[14:11] Jiro**
I wouldn't be comfortable helping customers.
**[14:13] Shiori**
M-Maybe I'll pick the kitchen, too.
**[14:16] Shiori**
I'd feel better with someone I know.
**[14:19] Shiori**
So... want to work the kitchen with me?
**[14:23] Shiori**
Okay?
**[14:24] Jiro**
*For real?*
**[14:26] Jiro**
Y-Yeah.

You learn fast. That really helps me out.
**[14:41] Tenjin**
I can tell you're really listening.
**[14:43] Akari**
*I'm so happy!*
**[14:46] Tenjin**
Then, once you've given their card back...
**[14:48] Akari**
I give them the receipt, right?

**[14:59] Natsumi**
Oh, look at this! I bet Akari would love it!
**[15:03] Terafune**
Which one? Show me!
**[15:04] Natsumi**
Just kidding!
**[15:06] Sachi**
You are idiotically easy to read.
And you *are* an idiot.
**[15:10] Terafune**
Hey! If you're gonna make fun of me,
I won't teach you how to do the work!
**[15:13] Sachi**
You're way too uptight.
You'll never win over any girls like that.
**[15:18] Natsumi**
But you know...
**[15:19] Natsumi**
It's gotta suck when the one you're in
love with is in love with your friend.
**[15:23] Natsumi**
If Akari and Minami-kun start dating,
what'll you do?
**[15:26] Terafune**
That's not gonna happen.
**[15:27] Sachi**
How do you know?
**[15:29] Terafune**
Call it... intuition.
**[15:31] Sachi**
There's no way that brain of yours contains
any kind of intuition. Spit it out.
**[15:34] Terafune**
That's kinda harsh.
**[15:36] Natsumi**
If you don't tell us, I'll be angry!
**[15:39] Sachi**
And Natsumi-sama is scary when she's angry.
**[15:42] Mei**
They're making a lot of noise.
What are they so excited about?
**[15:42] Terafune**
G-G-Give! I give up!
**[15:45] Shiori**
They seem like they're having fun.
**[15:47] Shiori**
Sorry for making you work the kitchen with me.
**[15:51] Mei**
Don't be!
**[15:52] Mei**
I mean, this is my chance to
work a part-time job with you!
**[15:55] Shiori**
Thanks!
**[15:59] Mei**
You say that, but the one you'd
rather be with is over there, right?
**[16:03] Shiori**
M-Mei-chan!
**[16:04] Mei**
Just look at his back.
That's the back of a useless man.
**[16:07] Mei**
You need to show off the
fact that you're a woman.
**[16:09] Mei**
It may have happened by coincidence,
but this is a rare chance, right?
**[16:12] Mei**
Escape the role of "childhood friend."
This summer is clutch time!
**[16:16] Shiori**
Okay.
**[16:18] Mei**
Yakuin!
**[16:21] Mei**
Sorry, Yakuin. Could you get
that thing up there for us?
**[16:25] Mei**
Shiori can't reach.
**[16:26] Shiori**
Oh, um... Please?
**[16:30] Shiori**
Sorry, Jiro-kun.
**[16:32] Jiro**
It's fine. Which one?
**[16:33] Shiori**
Um...
**[16:34] Shiori**
This syrup.
**[16:38] Shiori**
Jiro-kun?
**[16:40] Jiro**
Oh, sorry! That one, right?
**[16:43] Shiori**
Yeah.
**[16:45] Mei**
*You've got this, Shiori.*
**[16:47] Kamo**
Jiro-chan! I got a new bottle of soa—
**[16:49] Kamo**
Hey! What is this, gravity?
**[16:51] Mei**
Sorry. Could you move these
cardboard boxes first?
**[16:54] Kamo**
Of course! If I can be of help.
**[16:57] Kamo**
Hup!
**[16:59] Kamo**
A misanga...
**[17:01] Kamo**
Do you like enka, by any chance?
**[17:03] Mei**
What?
**[17:05] Kamo**
Sorry.
**[17:07] Shiori**
Thank you, Jiro-kun.
**[17:09] Jiro**
No, thank you.
**[17:11] Jiro**
*Moron! What are you thanking her for?!*
**[17:19] Jiro**
Is this one of those ones
you put cream and stuff on?
**[17:21] Shiori**
Yeah! Want to practice together?
**[17:26] Jiro**
It's hard getting this in there.
**[17:29] Shiori**
Yeah, but this is your first time, right?
**[17:32] Jiro**
Y-Yeah.
**[17:33] Shiori**
It's all right. Try doing it slowly and gently.
**[17:37] Jiro**
Okay.
**[17:37] Shiori**
That's right. Like you're
tracing softly along the edge.
**[17:41] Shiori**
Do it slowly and gently.
**[17:43] Shiori**
There's no need to rush or panic.
It's all right to go slow.
**[17:46] Shiori**
That's right. Gently.
**[17:48] Jiro**
Like this... maybe?
**[17:51] Shiori**
Yes. It's all the way in.
**[17:53] Shiori**
That's right. Now keep it there
and start moving, slowly.
**[17:56] Shiori**
Oh! No, don't rush.
**[17:59] Shiori**
That's it.
**[18:02] Shiori**
It might be better if you went
in a little straighter. Like this.
**[18:13] Shiori**
Jeez, Jiro-kun!
**[18:16] Jiro**
Huh?! Uh, s-s-sorry!
**[18:20] Shiori**
You look like you have a mustache!
**[18:23] Jiro**
D-Don't laugh! It's on your face, too!
**[18:26] Shiori**
What? Oh, no! Where?
**[18:29] Jiro**
Oh, not there. It's in a
totally different spot!
**[18:33] Shiori**
Oh, I'm so embarrassed!
**[18:36] Shiori**
J-Jiro-kun, wipe it off.
**[18:45] Shiori**
That tickles!
**[18:47] Jiro**
Sh-Shiori, if you don't
hold still, I can't get it off.
**[18:51] Shiori**
*Jiro-kun's hands are so warm.*
**[18:54] (Flashback) Mei**
Escape the role of "childhood friend."
**[18:56] (Flashback) Mei**
This summer is clutch time!
**[18:58] Jiro**
Okay. I think I got all of it.
**[19:01] Mei**
*This summer is clutch time!*
**[19:04] Shiori**
Jiro-kun...
**[19:06] Shiori**
Please look at me. I mean, really look.
**[19:11] Jiro**
Shiori?
**[19:20] Shiori**
Jiro-kun, I...
**[19:24] Jiro**
Shiori? Is something wrong?
**[19:33] Sachi**
So sorry to bother you when you're
in the middle of something.
**[19:36] Sachi**
What size were we supposed to get, again?
**[19:39] Natsumi**
No idea. Let's bring them all.
**[19:42] Shiori**
* Jiro-kun was so surprised.*
* Is he disgusted by me now?*
**[19:46] Jiro**
* She really looked like she hated that!*
* I might've blown it already.*
**[19:49] Natsumi**
Sorry for bothering you!
**[19:51] Sachi**
Take your time and enjoy!
**[19:54] Shiori**
I, um... I'm so sorry!
**[19:56] Jiro**
No, I'm the one who should be sorry.
**[19:58] Jiro**
* Don't panic, me. Everything's fine.*
* There's still plenty of time.*
**[20:04] Shiori**
*I was able to tell him a little, Mei-chan.*
**[20:08] Shiori**
*It's all right. Summer's only just begun.*
**[20:12] Jiro**
*It's all right. Everything's all right.*
**[20:14] Jiro**
*This isn't that other summer!*
**[20:20] Jiro**

**[20:31] Kamo**
Jiro-chan!
**[20:35] Kamo**
Did you bring your swimsuit?
**[20:37] Jiro**
Huh?
**[20:41] Akari**
The ocean!
**[20:42] Sachi**
It's gorgeous!
**[20:44] Natsumi**
This rocks!
**[20:47] Kamo**
What a glorious view!
**[20:49] Kamo**
This will restore my vision!
**[20:52] Jiro**
In multiple ways.
**[20:53] Kamo**
To be at the beach with sunny extroverts
while I'm still in high school...
**[20:57] Kamo**
I guess life's worth living after all, Jiro-chan!
**[21:00] Jiro**
It's clear that we're in a different
group from them, though.
**[21:04] Kamo**
But Akari-chan's one-piece
bathing suit is unexpected.
**[21:08] Kamo**
Usually, she shows so much skin.
**[21:11] Kamo**
Though that's cute in its own way.
**[21:16] (Flashback) Akari**
This suit...
**[21:17] (Flashback) Akari**
will be just for you.
**[21:20] Jiro**
*No, it can't be...*
**[21:22] Jiro**
*That's not possible.*
**[21:25] Jiro**
*It couldn't be...*
**[21:27] Jiro**
*No, it's not possible, right?*
**[21:29] Shiori**
Huh? Jiro-kun, where are you guys' swimsuits?
**[21:34] Shiori**
You're not going in the water?
**[21:36] Mei**
Because you can't swim?
**[21:40] Kamo**
We didn't think we'd get free time,
so we didn't bring our suits.
**[21:44] Jiro**
We thought it'd be enough to
just look out at the ocean.
**[21:47] Mei**
Yeah, right. I bet you were just
staring at the gross parts of the girls.
**[21:51] Kamo**
Th-That's a horrible thing to say!
**[21:52] Kamo**
They're not gross! They are sacred areas!
**[21:55] Kamo**
Thank you for giving us these
gifts to take home with us!
**[21:57] Jiro**
*Are you stupid?!*
**[21:59] Shiori**
I don't quite understand, but, u-um...
**[22:02] Shiori**
If you'd like, why don't
we go over there together?
**[22:06] Shiori**
What do you say?
**[22:17] Mei; Kamo; Jiro**
A hotel?!

Ooh, sexy!

If you want a suit for when
everything's on the line, this is it!
**[23:54] Natsumi**
Whoa, it's basically just string.

**[00:01] Shiori**
Why don't we go over there together?
**[00:03] Mei; Kamo; Jiro**
A hotel?!
**[00:07] Shiori**
Wow!
**[00:09] Shiori**
Kamo-kun, you're pretty good with your hands!
**[00:12] Mei**
How did you do these super detailed parts?
**[00:15] Kamo**
I just figured ladies would probably
prefer Western-style castles.
**[00:19] Jiro**
* She meant the beach right*
* in front of the hotel?!*
**[00:22] Kamo**
And since it had to be something
easy to build with sand,
**[00:24] Kamo**
I thought about England and decided
that Conwy Castle would be best.
**[00:27] Mei**
That's a surprising talent.
**[00:31] Kamo**
You fool!
**[00:32] Kamo**
If we ever get a chance to see
women's swimsuits this close again,
**[00:35] Kamo**
it'll probably only be in VR!
**[00:37] Jiro**
*Well, he's got a point.*
**[00:40] Jiro**
* Usually, Shiori's buttons are done*
* all the way up to the top,*
**[00:43] Jiro**
*but now, her chest is...*
**[00:46] Jiro**
*O gods, I thank you!*
**[00:48] Shiori**
Jiro-kun, are you all right?
**[00:50] Jiro**
Huh? Uh, yes! What is it?
**[00:52] Shiori**
I was thinking we should make
a tunnel through this castle!
**[00:55] Shiori**
We did it all the time when
we were kids, remember?
**[00:57] Shiori**
We'd dig in with our hands from either
side and join together in the middle.
**[01:01] Jiro**
Join together?
**[01:02] Shiori**
Okay, come on. Slide it
in gently. Go slow, okay?
**[01:06] Jiro**
Okay.
**[01:07] Shiori**
Um, maybe a little deeper?
**[01:12] Shiori**
Oh! There you are, Jiro-kun!
**[01:15] Shiori**
Look at us, playing with sand.
It's like we went back in time.
**[01:21] Akari**
They're being all lovey over there.

**[02:56] Everyone**
Rock, paper, scissors!
**[02:59] Natsumi**
Which means Akari and Yakuin
are gonna go buy stuff!
**[03:02] Akari**
What? Me and Jiro?
**[03:04] Akari**
We're always together. That's boring!
**[03:06] Jiro**
Well, sorry you got stuck with me.
**[03:09] Jiro**
It's pretty crowded.
**[03:11] Akari**
It seems like it's all guy-girl pairs.
**[03:14] Jiro**
Being in a place filled
with normies is getting old.

It's gotta be because of this!
**[03:20] Akari**
We should use it, too!
**[03:22] Jiro**
What? But we're not a couple!
**[03:24] Akari**
But being married counts, doesn't it?
**[03:29] Akari**
You turned all red! I'll assume
that means you're okay with it.
**[03:32] Jiro**
"Mock"! We're *mock*-married!
**[03:33] Akari**
As long as no one finds out, it's fine!
**[03:35] beach hut employee**
Next customer!
**[03:37] Akari**
Let's see... Three yakisobas, and...
**[03:40] beach hut employee**
Couples can upgrade the
size at no extra charge.
**[03:43] Akari**
For real? That's so nice of you!
**[03:45] Akari**
Then can we make all three of them larges?
**[03:48] beach hut employee**
I can't say no to a cute girlfriend like you!
**[03:51] beach hut employee**
You're one lucky boyfriend. I'm jealous!
**[03:55] beach hut employee**
Right, you're number 13.
I'll call you when it's ready.
**[03:58] Jiro**
Okay.
**[04:01] Akari**
What was with that courtesy laugh?
**[04:03] Akari**
Do things with more style,
more like a boyfriend!
**[04:06] Jiro**
Huh? What was I supposed
to have done better, then?
**[04:09] Akari**
Put your arm around my shoulders and say,
"I'm proud to call her my girlfriend!"
**[04:13] Akari**
It'd be like a dream to hear that.
**[04:16] Akari**
Minami-kun might have
done it if he were here.
**[04:19] Jiro**
That stuff doesn't just come out of nowhere.
**[04:21] beach hut employee**
Customer number 13!
**[04:24] Jiro**
I'll go get it.
**[04:25] Akari**
What was that? He's so infuriating!
**[04:29] pick-up guy A**
Hey, you alone?
**[04:32] Jiro**
Oh, crap. Where were we a minute ago?
**[04:38] Jiro**
Does Akari know him?
**[04:39] Jiro**
I can't tell!
**[04:42] Akari**
Jiro, over here!
**[04:43] pick-up guy A**
What? You were waiting for a guy?
**[04:46] pick-up guy B**
You're two totally different types.
That's hilarious!
**[04:49] Jiro**
Um, are you acquaintances of hers?
**[04:52] pick-up guy A**
Ding, ding, ding! Acquaintances!
We just became acquainted!
**[04:57] Akari**
*You know they're not! They're hitting on me!*
**[05:01] Jiro**
*Yeah, of course...*
**[05:03] pick-up guy B**
Hey, bro, you're here with her, right?
**[05:07] pick-up guy A**
Will you tell us her name?
**[05:09] pick-up guy A**
We've asked, but she won't tell us.
**[05:12] pick-up guy B**
Hey, are you staying somewhere
around here tonight? Is it close?
**[05:15] Jiro**
U-Um, would you mind letting her go?
She doesn't like what you're doing.
**[05:20] pick-up guy A**
Oh, here it comes!
**[05:22] pick-up guy B**
You after this girl, too?
**[05:24] Jiro**
No, um...
**[05:26] pick-up guy A**
She's a little intense for you, ain't she, bro?
**[05:28] pick-up guy A**
You look like a virgin, though. Are you?
**[05:35] Jiro**
Sh-She's my wife.
**[05:39] pick-up guy A**
What?!
**[05:40] pick-up guy B**
She's married?!
**[05:43] pick-up guy B**
Sorry, bro!
**[05:44] pick-up guy A**
Yeah, uh... Be happy together!
**[05:50] Akari**
L-Listen, Jiro...
**[05:53] Jiro**
I'm sorry!
**[05:54] Akari**
Huh?
**[05:56] Jiro**
I couldn't think up a lie on the spot,
**[05:58] Jiro**
and I figured you must've
hated being called my wife...
**[06:02] Jiro**
B-But calling you my girlfriend
would've been... you know...
**[06:05] Akari**
You are seriously infuriating!
**[06:06] Jiro**
I said I'm sorry!
**[06:08] Akari**
I never said I hated it!
**[06:11] Jiro**
Huh?
**[06:12] Akari**
I-I didn't say that, did I?
**[06:14] Akari**
Don't just assume things like that.
**[06:16] Akari**
Y-You were so cool...
and then you ruined it, you idiot.
**[06:21] Akari**
If you're always like that,
you'll never get a girlfriend!
**[06:27] Akari**
Don't apologize for everything.
**[06:29] Akari**
I feel like a loser for letting my heart race.
**[06:32] Akari**
And in the practical, too...
**[06:33] Akari**
Show me you're man enough
to use me for practice.
**[06:37] Jiro**
F-For practice?
**[06:40] Akari**
You get it now? Okay, so let's head back!
**[06:42] Jiro**
Wh-Wha...
**[06:44] Jiro**
Hey! Quit pushing!
**[06:46] Akari**
They're gonna tease us for
taking so long because of you.
**[06:48] Jiro**
It wasn't my fault!
**[06:50] Akari**
Walk faster!
**[06:53] Akari**
*I can't deal with that kind of thing...*
**[07:00] Natsumi**
This is paradise.
**[07:02] Sachi**
Don't talk like an old man.
**[07:05] Akari**
This is so nostalgic. It feels like a school trip.
**[07:11] Shiori**
Mei-chan, you're not sunburned, are you?
**[07:13] Mei**
No, I rubbed some oil on, so I'm fine.
**[07:16] Mei**
But I guess a day isn't
enough to even out a tan.
**[07:19] Shiori**
Oh, the tan lines around
here are fading, though.
**[07:23] Mei**
Y-You've tanned some, too!
**[07:25] Shiori**
You're right! And I put on
sunblock and everything.
**[07:28] Mei**
Come on, let's hurry up and get in.
**[07:32] Sachi**
So then I asked him,
**[07:35] Sachi**
"And how many kilos do you think
*you've* gained since we started dating?"
**[07:40] Akari**
It's impossible to stay the "perfect girl"
24 hours a day, right?
**[07:44] Natsumi**
That's so not okay.
**[07:45] Natsumi**
You're working hard to stay beautiful,
and he just doesn't get it.
**[07:48] Natsumi**
Bet he'll never get married.
**[07:50] Sachi**
Yeah, for real.
**[07:52] Shiori; Mei**
*We can hear them talking.*
**[07:54] Sachi**
Anyway, since we're on the subject,
how's it going at your place, Akari?
**[07:57] Natsumi**
Indeed.
**[07:59] Akari**
My place?
**[08:00] Sachi**
That virgin seems like he'd have
unrealistic dreams about girls.
**[08:04] Natsumi**
She complained about him
all the time at first.
**[08:07] Sachi**
And you thought there was
no way it could last this long.
**[08:10] Akari**
Th-That's because he's super, uber sloppy!
**[08:14] Shiori**
*So he's sloppy at home...*
**[08:17] Natsumi**
Doesn't Virgin-kun actually treat you better
since he's got so little experience?
**[08:21] Sachi**
In the end, it's all about kindness, right?
**[08:24] Sachi**
If he isn't kind, it won't feel good anyway.
**[08:26] Sachi**
Like my ex before my last ex...
**[08:28] Sachi**
Before we'd do it, I seriously thought about
reading my mental notes aloud to him.
**[08:32] Mei**
Hey, um...
**[08:34] Mei**
We can hear everything you're
saying. You okay with that?
**[08:37] Natsumi**
It's totally fine!
Actually, Hamano-san, you should join in!
**[08:40] Natsumi**
You, too, Sakurazaka-san!
**[08:42] Shiori**
Huh?
**[08:43] Sachi**
How do your relationship chats usually go?
**[08:45] Shiori**
I... I, um...
**[08:48] Mei**
After hearing what you said, I think
it's all about caring for someone.
**[08:52] Mei**
It's sort of a way to give yourself
the feeling that you really like them,
**[08:56] Mei**
and I'd like to believe the other
party wants to feel seen, too.
**[09:00] Mei**
It's not about being good or bad at it.
**[09:03] Mei**
It's wanting to make eye contact
even one more time.
**[09:05] Mei**
I think I like that kind of thing.
**[09:10] Sachi; Natsumi**
Well said!
**[09:11] Sachi**
That's it, exactly!
**[09:13] Sachi**
I want to really feel that I'm loved.
**[09:15] Natsumi**
Hamano-san, will you marry me?
**[09:18] Mei**
Why are you clinging to me like that?
**[09:20] Mei**
C'mon, cut it out!
**[09:20] Akari**
Sorry for talking about this right now.
**[09:23] Shiori**
Huh? Oh, no, it's fine.
I'm the one who should apologize.
**[09:27] Shiori**
I, um... I don't have much experience,
so I couldn't join the conversation, that's all.
**[09:32] Akari**
Really? But you're super cute!
**[09:35] Akari**
But I get it. It's hard to jump
into a conversation like that.
**[09:38] Akari**
When it comes to the stuff they were
talking about, I'm no match for those two.
**[09:43] Shiori**
I-It's very educational.
**[09:46] Akari**
You're so serious!
**[09:54] Shiori**
*If it were Jiro-kun...*
**[09:54] Akari**
*If it was Jiro...*
**[09:57] Natsumi**
Akari!
**[09:59] Natsumi**
We're gonna head back first.
**[10:01] Akari**
Okay.
***SIGN*** Women
***SIGN*** Men
**[10:08] Akari**
Was the men's bath pretty big?
**[10:10] Jiro**
Uh... yeah, kinda.
**[10:12] Akari**
O-Oh, cool.
**[10:15] Akari**
Hey, you got burned.
**[10:17] Jiro**
I know, right?
**[10:18] Jiro**
The shower hurt like hell.
Especially the back of my neck.
**[10:22] Akari**
Hang on a sec. I should have...
**[10:26] Akari**
Come here. I'll put it on for you.
**[10:28] Jiro**
Huh?
**[10:29] Akari**
Wow, it's really noticeable!
**[10:32] Jiro**
U-Um, don't you need to
get back to your room?
**[10:35] Akari**
What's that supposed to mean?
Do you want me to leave?
**[10:37] Jiro**
No, just...
**[10:39] Jiro**
It might look weird if we're together too long.
**[10:41] Jiro**
They might start teasing us.
**[10:44] Akari**
You worry too much.
**[10:46] Akari**
Wait, so your neck isn't ticklish, huh?
**[10:49] Jiro**
I guess not. I never really
had any ticklish spots.
**[10:54] Akari**
Then how about here?
**[10:56] Akari**
Whoa! It's not ticklish? For real?
**[10:59] Jiro**
Get off me! What if someone sees us?
**[11:08] Akari**
We haven't done this yet today.
**[11:11] Jiro**
W-We're not doing the practical right now...
**[11:13] Akari**
But ever since we got here,
there's been this distance between us.
**[11:17] Akari**
It makes me feel weird.
**[11:19] Akari**
Please... just be the way you always...
**[11:23] Sachi**
Akari!
**[11:24] Sachi**
Oh.
**[11:25] Sachi**
Were you in the middle of something?
**[11:27] Akari**
Nope! I was just telling Jiro
he should treat me to a drink.
**[11:31] Akari**
I think I'll have apple juice.
**[11:33] Jiro**
Hey! I never said I'd buy you anything!
**[11:34] Sachi**
Oh, really? I'll have a cola.
**[11:39] Sachi**
Would you look at this?
Seriously, I am so done with him.
**[11:42] Jiro**
So, Takamiya-san...
You wanted a cola, right?
**[11:46] Sachi**
Yeah. Thanks!
**[11:48] Jiro**
Aka—Watanabe, what did you say you wanted?
**[11:52] Jiro**
Watanabe...
**[11:55] Akari**
Apple juice.
**[11:57] Jiro**
Right.
**[11:59] Sachi**
Thanks!
**[12:01] Sachi**
So, he's like a major no, right?
**[12:04] Jiro**
Uh-oh. I stepped on some kind of land mine.
**[12:08] Jiro**
I hope nothing bad happens...

**[12:17] Akari**
*You will come.*
**[12:20] Jiro**
Yes, I will.
**[12:25] Natsumi**
Hey, where's Akari?
**[12:27] Mei**
She said she was going
to the convenience store.
**[12:29] Natsumi**
What? But I thought we
were going to play cards.
**[12:33] Kamo**
Do you know where Jiro-chan is?
**[12:35] Minami**
He said he was going to go wander around.
**[12:37] Kamo**
What? Are any shops still open?
**[12:40] Terafune**
At this hour, probably
just the convenience store.
**[12:42] Kamo**
Sheesh...
**[12:44] Mei**
Shall we? For a change of pace.
**[12:53] Jiro**
Um, I'm very sorry.
**[12:55] Akari**
There it is.
**[12:56] Akari**
You don't know why I'm angry, but you start
off with an apology anyway. Like always.
**[13:00] Jiro**
Yes. I don't know why you're angry.
**[13:03] Jiro**
I'm very sorry.
**[13:04] Akari**
I'm telling you not to apologize when
you don't know the reason for it!
**[13:08] Akari**
Are you stupid?!
**[13:09] Jiro**
Y-Yes!
**[13:10] Jiro**
I'm sor—Okay!
**[13:17] Jiro**
Whoa, what?! What are you...
**[13:23] Jiro**
That swimsuit...
**[13:25] Akari**
I've been looking forward to it.
**[13:26] Akari**
I got to come to the ocean
with you, even if it's for work.
**[13:30] Jiro**
*So she meant what she said?*
**[13:32] Akari**
But you just keep worrying about
how other people see us.
**[13:36] Akari**
When I do talk to you, you're cold toward me.
**[13:38] Akari**
It's like I'm the only one excited about this.
**[13:40] Akari**
I hate it so much.
**[13:42] Jiro**
*She hates it? But that...*
**[13:46] Jiro**
*That makes it sound like she's jealous.*
**[13:49] Jiro**
No, it's nothing, really.
**[13:52] Jiro**
*Am I stupid? I can't get the wrong idea.*
**[13:54] Jiro**
*It's just her usual "I hate it" syndrome.*
**[13:56] Akari**
Anyway!
**[13:58] Akari**
I know you don't want people
to see you with me, but...
**[14:02] Jiro**
No! It's not that!
**[14:04] Akari**
Yes, it is!
**[14:05] Jiro**
I'm telling you, it's not!
**[14:08] Jiro**
It's the other way around.
**[14:09] Jiro**
Being around a plain, boring guy like me
is just embarrassing for you, isn't it?
**[14:14] Akari**
Huh? Why should that matter?
**[14:16] Akari**
Who I hang out with is up to me.
**[14:18] Jiro**
People like me worry about that kind of thing!
**[14:21] Jiro**
Even if you're okay with it,
other people might think things.
**[14:24] Jiro**
And it's not like we *have* to
spend time together right now—
**[14:31] Akari**
Why do you have to say sad things like that?
**[14:34] Akari**
Look at me more, like you
do when we're at home.
**[14:39] Akari**
Come on... Look.
**[14:46] Akari**
Look! Look!
**[14:47] Akari**
When we're at home, all you do
is stare at my chest, you moron!
**[14:48] Jiro**
Ow, ow, ow!
**[14:52] Akari**
I already know about all that, so don't
try to act cool when we're out here!
**[14:56] Jiro**
*The pressure! All kinds of pressure!*
**[14:58] Jiro**
Calm down, Akari!
**[15:00] Jiro**
Just let go for a minute! Okay?
**[15:01] Jiro**
You won't get your message across this way.
**[15:03] Jiro**
Come on. Look me in the eye and talk to me.
**[15:06] Akari**
Yeah... Okay.
**[15:08] Jiro**
*I'm glad she's so docile today.*
**[15:10] Akari**
I hate that we're not a married couple
when we're outside the house.
**[15:13] Akari**
I hate you acting cold and
calling me by my last name.
**[15:16] Akari**
When I see you talking with
those other girls all the time...
**[15:19] Akari**
It's like you're not my husband anymore.
**[15:23] Akari**
I can't help thinking,
**[15:25] Akari**
what if even after we're back home,
we aren't a married couple anymore?
**[15:28] Akari**
And I hate feeling like that!
**[15:31] Jiro**
Um, is it okay for me to ask
what you mean by that?
**[15:36] Akari**
What do you mean,
"what do I mean"? I don't get it.
**[15:39] Jiro**
Well, like... How do I put it...
**[15:42] Jiro**
You want to be together even when we're out,
**[15:45] Jiro**
y-you want me to call you by your first name,
**[15:47] Jiro**
and you hate it when I talk
to other girls... right?
**[15:51] Jiro**
It's like...
**[15:52] Jiro**
I can't help thinking that... those are
things a jealous girlfriend might say.
**[15:58] Jiro**
Wait, what? For real?
**[16:00] Akari**
Y-You're not making sense!
**[16:02] Akari**
What do you mean, "for real"?
**[16:04] Jiro**
Well, I mean...
**[16:05] Akari**
Jealous? Like hell I am!
**[16:08] Akari**
M-More like I'm angry because you
act like I'm just a convenience!
**[16:12] Jiro**
*That's what she meant?!*
**[16:14] Jiro**
For now, I'll make sure to
call you by your first name.
**[16:17] Akari**
You should've just said that from the start.
**[16:19] Shiori**
Wow! The moon's beautiful tonight!
**[16:22] Mei**
It's brighter than I thought it'd be.
**[16:24] Shiori**
The breeze feels so nice!
**[16:30] Mei**
Oh, by the way, I was watching
a drama on TV yesterday,
**[16:33] Mei**
and there was a girl who looked like you.
**[16:35] Shiori**
Oh, the one playing the younger sister?
**[16:37] Mei**
Yeah! Do you get compared to her a lot?
**[16:39] Akari; Jiro**
*What do I do now?*
**[16:41] Akari**
It's too cramped in here. Scoot over that way!
**[16:46] Jiro**
You're the one who dragged me in here!
**[16:48] Akari**
Shh!
**[16:51] Akari**
This sucks. I just want to
get out of here already.
**[16:54] Jiro**
How is complaining gonna help?
**[16:56] Jiro**
Right now, we just have to make sure
Shiori and Hamano don't see us.
**[17:00] Akari**
That's always where you end up.
**[17:02] Jiro**
Did you say something?
**[17:03] Akari**
Nope, nothing.
**[17:06] Akari**
*It took a lot to wear this swimsuit...*
**[17:08] Akari**
*But even when we're this close,*
**[17:10] Akari**
*in Jiro's heart, I don't even exist.*
**[17:15] Akari**
* Back when all I did was chase after Minami-kun,*
* I managed to be a lot more optimistic.*
**[17:19] Akari**
* But now, every time it feels fun or*
* reassuring to have Jiro beside me,*
**[17:23] Akari**
*I get scared that he'll leave.*
**[17:27] Akari**
*Even right now,*
**[17:28] Akari**
* I can feel that Jiro really*
* cares for Sakurazaka-san.*
**[17:33] Akari**
* It's something I've known*
* about since we first met,*
**[17:36] Akari**
*but I still feel all muddled.*
**[17:39] Akari**
I really hate this.
**[17:41] Jiro**
Akari? Are you feeling sick?
**[17:45] Jiro**
Really? That's a relief.
**[17:47] Jiro**
It's hot, but can you hang in
there just a little longer?
**[17:51] Akari**
If I do, what then?
**[17:54] Jiro**
What do you mean?
**[17:59] Akari**
You'll be able to leave?
**[18:03] Mei**
Do you hear someone talking?
**[18:07] Shiori**
S-Stop that! Don't scare me!
**[18:11] Mei**
You really can't stand that kind of thing, huh?
**[18:15] Mei**
What if there's...
**[18:16] Mei**
a ghost or something over there?
**[18:18] Shiori**
Mei-chan!
**[18:25] Mei**
Huh? There's no one here.
**[18:31] Mei**
Sorry about that. My mistake.
**[18:33] Shiori**
Thank goodness.
**[18:35] Mei**
Maybe what I heard came from the road...
**[18:37] Jiro; Akari**
*Safe!*
**[18:44] Jiro**
Ow!
**[18:45] Jiro**
Hey, are you nuts?!
**[18:46] Jiro**
Quit banging around!
**[18:52] Shiori**
Mei-chan, let's go back now!
**[18:53] Shiori**
Hurry! Hurry!
**[18:55] Mei**
Wait...
**[18:59] Akari**
This seriously sucks.
**[19:02] Akari**
Come on, get off of me already.
**[19:05] Akari**
I can't believe you'd ogle my chest
in an emergency like this.
**[19:07] Akari**
That's so wrong.
**[19:09] Akari**
I swear, that's how all guys are.
**[19:12] Akari**
I regret wearing this swimsuit.
**[19:14] Jiro**
You wanted me to look, didn't you?
**[19:17] Akari**
Th-That was just...
something I said in the moment.
**[19:20] Akari**
And you need to hurry up and forget that!
**[19:23] Jiro**
Oh, I get it.
**[19:25] Jiro**
So you were just toying with me, is that it?
**[19:28] Akari**
No, it's not—
**[19:29] Jiro**
Yes, it is.
**[19:31] Jiro**
Wanting me to use your first name in public,
getting mad at me earlier...
**[19:34] Jiro**
If you just said all that "in the moment,"
**[19:37] Jiro**
then I'm not gonna change a thing.
**[19:55] Akari**
I hate you, Jiro.
**[19:57] Akari**
I hate this. I'm so embarrassed.
I'm gonna die.
**[20:05] Akari**
Hey, what's wrong? It's too hot for this.
**[20:08] Akari**
Come on, it's all clear.
We can get out of here now.
**[20:12] Akari**
And your knee is poking me. Can you move it?
**[20:16] Jiro**
That's... not my knee.
**[20:20] Akari**
Wh-What?
**[20:21] Jiro**
I'm serious.
**[20:23] Akari**
You're kidding...
**[20:24] Jiro**
Sorry.
**[20:28] Akari**
Raise your face up.
**[20:35] Akari**
Hey, Jiro...
**[20:36] Akari**
Did looking at me make that happen?
**[20:44] Akari**
What? W-Wait!
**[20:47] Akari**
W-We can't! We can't!
**[20:48] Akari**
Jiro, we can't! Th-There's an
order to these kinds of things!
**[20:53] Akari**
Huh?
**[20:54] Akari**
Jiro?!
**[20:59] Akari**
They said it's mild heatstroke. Are you okay?
**[21:03] Jiro**
Yeah.
**[21:04] Akari; Jiro**
Hey, so...
**[21:09] Jiro**
Sorry. I heard that you went
and got people to carry me.
**[21:13] Jiro**
Also, um... sorry about
all that other stuff, too.
**[21:16] Akari**
Didn't I tell you not to apologize?
**[21:19] Akari**
It makes me feel worse.
**[21:21] Akari**
I'm telling you not to apologize!
**[21:23] Akari**
And also!
**[21:25] Akari**
"You wanted me to look, didn't you?"
What was with that tone?
**[21:28] Akari**
It's unbelievable!
**[21:30] Akari**
All those times you stole glances at home?
**[21:32] Akari**
I was letting you look because
I felt sorry for you!
**[21:34] Akari**
You should be grateful to me, idiot!
**[21:36] Jiro**
You're too loud! Keep it down!
**[21:38] Akari**
Instead of just that kind of stuff,
**[21:40] Akari**
I want you to look at all
the different parts of me.
**[21:44] Akari**
We've already been married for four months,
**[21:46] Akari**
but I don't know anything about you yet.
**[21:50] Akari**
I-I mean, knowing about each other will
make living together more fun, right?
**[21:55] Akari**
I want to see and know all the
different parts of you, too.
**[21:59] Akari**
Since we're still married and all.
**[22:01] Akari**
Okay?
**[22:02] Jiro**
Sure.
**[22:04] Jiro**
* As I looked at Akari smiling and saying,*
* "It's already been four months,"*
**[22:09] Jiro**
*I thought a lot of different things...*
**[22:12] Jiro**
* But something about the way she said "still"*
* stuck in an odd spot and stayed that way.*

**[00:06] Shiori**
*I didn't get much sleep.*
**[00:09] (Flashback) Mei**
Are you okay?
**[00:10] (Flashback) Shiori**
Yeah. Oh, that was scary!
**[00:13] (Flashback) Mei**
Yeah.
**[00:14] (Flashback) Sachi**
Akari! Where have you been?
**[00:17] (Flashback) Natsumi**
We were worried!
**[00:20] (Flashback) Akari**
I was stargazing on the
beach and fell asleep.
**[00:23] Natsumi**
What the heck?
**[00:23] (Flashback) Mei**
Watanabe-san's pretty free-spirited, isn't she?
**[00:24] Sachi**
Seriously?
**[00:25] (Flashback) Shiori**
Yeah.
**[00:31] (Flashback) Mei**
Yakuin?
**[00:32] (Flashback) Shiori**
Jiro-kun was at the beach, too?

**[02:10] Jiro**
For some reason, I couldn't really sleep.
**[02:15] Jiro**
Oh! Morning.
**[02:16] Shiori**
Morning. Are you on your
way to brush your teeth?
**[02:19] Jiro**
Yeah. Are you on your way back?
**[02:22] Jiro**
* Whoa. The sight of Shiori in*
* her pajamas really hits hard.*
**[02:26] Jiro**
*Tenjin sees this every day, doesn't he? Damn.*
**[02:30] Shiori**
H-Hey, Jiro-kun...
**[02:36] Shiori**
Nothing! Let's give it our best in
the kitchen again today, okay?
**[02:39] Jiro**
Yeah.
**[02:48] Akari**
Hey, if it isn't Jiro! Morning!
**[02:50] Jiro**
Yeah... Morning.
**[02:54] Akari**
What? Did something happen?
You seem kinda down.
**[02:57] Jiro**
Not really.
**[03:01] Akari**
Could it be that you can't help remembering...
**[03:03] Akari**
what happened last night?
**[03:10] Akari**
Hey, come on! That's gross!
**[03:21] Akari**
That's a secret between
husband and wife, okay?
**[03:26] Jiro**
*Damn it.*
**[03:28] Jiro**
* She'll be treating me*
* like a pushover for a while.*
**[03:32] Jiro**
*I'm glad she just laughed it off, though.*
**[03:35] Jiro**
*Things'd still be awkward otherwise.*
**[03:38] Jiro**
* That's her way of being considerate*
* of my feelings, right?*
**[03:42] Jiro**
*I need to get it together, too!*
**[03:48] Jiro**
Oh, by the way, are you gonna
be doing the thing tonight, Shiori?
**[03:52] Shiori**
The recreational activity? I am.
**[03:54] Jiro**
Talk about cliché, right?
I heard it's a test of courage.
**[03:59] Shiori**
Wh-What do I do, Jiro-kun?!
**[04:01] Shiori**
I'll never make it through that!
**[04:03] Jiro**
Whoa, hang on!
**[04:05] Shiori**
I was on a bench at the beach last night...
**[04:09] Shiori**
And I heard voices! I just know there's
something here at this beach!
**[04:13] Jiro**
You must have imagined it!
**[04:14] Shiori**
I just don't know what to do.
**[04:16] Shiori**
I'm going to cause so much trouble
for whoever I'm paired with.
**[04:20] Jiro**
I-It'd be nice if we were
paired up together, wouldn't it?
**[04:23] Jiro**
I already know that you scare easily,
**[04:26] Jiro**
and it's no trouble for me.
**[04:28] Jiro**
You wouldn't need to explain anything.
**[04:30] Shiori**
Yeah. Thanks, Jiro-kun.
**[04:32] Shiori**
You know, I really love that kind side you have.
**[04:40] Jiro**
Huh?
**[04:45] Shiori**
Wh-What I... What I meant was...
**[04:47] Jiro**
No, I know! It's just that I don't
get called kind very often,
**[04:51] Jiro**
so it took me by surprise.
**[04:55] Shiori**
Sorry for just blurting that out!
**[04:57] Shiori**
I'll go take the trash out now!
**[05:05] Jiro**
* Sh-She said "love."*
* Does that word have other meanings?*
**[05:10] Jiro**
My kind side...
**[05:12] Kamo**
I wuv it!
**[05:14] Jiro**
You scared me!
**[05:16] Kamo**
Why are you the only one having
a nice, green springtime, damn it?!
**[05:19] Jiro**
What? How long have you been here?
**[05:21] Kamo**
Since you tried to entice her out
tonight with that lewd look on your face!
**[05:25] Jiro**
That phrasing is misleading!
And you should've said something!
**[05:27] Kamo**
I read the room and waited
so I wouldn't interfere
**[05:30] Kamo**
with the springtime of my buddy's youth!
**[05:32] Jiro**
Thank you for that.
**[05:34] Kamo**
Don't go getting a big head over this, you hear?
**[05:38] Kamo**
It wasn't you that Sakurazaka-san
said she loved!
**[05:41] Kamo**
It was your personality!
***SIGN*** Personality
**[05:43] Jiro**
I know that.
**[05:45] Kamo**
Do you want...
**[05:48] Kamo**
the power?
**[05:51] Jiro**
Huh?
**[05:52] Kamo**
You're saying you don't want the power
to pair up with Sakurazaka-san?
**[05:57] Kamo**
Who do you think you're dealing with here?
**[06:00] Kamo**
I'm the younger brother of
the guy who hired you!
**[06:02] Jiro**
That didn't sound cool!
**[06:04] Kamo**
The test of courage is the biggest
event of this part-time job.
***SIGN*** Test of Courage
**[06:08] Kamo**
According to my brother,
the suspension bridge effect...
***SIGN*** Suspension Bridge Effect
**[06:11] Kamo**
may or may not have taken things in
a good direction for pairs in the past.
***SIGN*** A Good Direction
**[06:15] Jiro**
Which is it?
**[06:17] Kamo**
And every year, those pairings
are chosen by lottery.
**[06:21] Kamo**
An act as simple as
tampering with that lottery
**[06:23] Kamo**
would be child's play for me,
the little brother.
***SIGN*** 30 Gem Pulls
SSR Guaranteed
***SIGN*** Sakurazaka ShioRi
**[06:28] Kamo**
For the cost of thirty gem pulls!
**[06:34] Mei**
Okay, everyone! Come draw lots!
**[06:37] Akari**
Mine's a heart.
**[06:38] Sachi**
What is this? A bear?
**[06:40] Natsumi**
These drawings are so bad! Mine's a yacht.
**[06:45] Mei**
What's yours, Shiori?
**[06:47] Shiori**
A sunflower, but...
**[06:50] Mei**
Are you still worried?
**[06:52] Shiori**
I just feel like I'll cause
trouble for whoever I'm with.
**[06:55] Mei**
It'll be fine. Some of them are dull,
but no one here's a bad guy.
**[07:00] Mei**
They'll take the lead for you.
**[07:02] Shiori**
But...
**[07:05] Mei**
It's going to be fine.
***SIGN*** Girls
Ohashi → Yacht
Takamiya → Bear
Watanabe → Heart
Sakurazaka → Sunflower
Hamano → Bunny
**[07:13] Mei**
Shiori said hers is the sunflower.
**[07:15] Kamo**
Thank you so much!
**[07:18] Kamo**
This is perfect!
**[07:19] Mei**
Hey, can I ask you something?
**[07:21] Kamo**
Yes?
**[07:23] Mei**
You said this was to grant
Yakuin and Shiori's wish,
**[07:26] Mei**
but is that really all?
**[07:28] Kamo**
Uh, yeah, that's all. Why?
**[07:30] Mei**
Then couldn't you have marked two
of the lots and had them draw those?
**[07:35] Mei**
Was there really any need to use me?
**[07:37] Kamo**
Oh, well... Jiro-chan is one thing,
**[07:40] Kamo**
but I thought Sakurazaka-san
might object to a trick like that.
**[07:44] Kamo**
And worst case, if Sakurazaka-san didn't
draw the marked lot because of that,
**[07:49] Kamo**
I don't think I'd be able to help Jiro-chan
through the depression it'd cause.
**[07:52] Kamo**
For Sakurazaka-san, at least, I want
to make it seem like a coincidence.
**[07:58] Mei**
You...
**[07:58] Kamo**
Yes?! Have I done a bad thing?
**[08:01] Mei**
No. I didn't expect it,
but you're a pretty decent guy.
**[08:04] Kamo**
Huh? Aw, well...
**[08:06] Kamo**
You're doing this for your
friend, too, aren't you?
**[08:08] Kamo**
You're doing all you can to help me out!
**[08:10] Mei**
I see. If that's how it looks, then I'm glad.
**[08:15] Mei**
No mistakes, okay? Good luck!
**[08:18] Kamo**
O-Okay!
**[08:21] Mei**
Seriously, don't call me a good person.
**[08:25] Mei**
I'm just a jerk who's using your friend.
**[08:30] Kamo**
Whew. I thought she'd caught on.
**[08:35] (Flashback) Jiro**
Hey, can you make other pairs
besides just me and Shiori?
**[08:39] (Flashback) Kamo**
Huh?
**[08:40] (Flashback) Jiro**
For Akari...
**[08:42] (Flashback) Jiro**
Could you pair her up with Tenjin?
**[08:44] (Flashback) Kamo**
What? Why, though?
**[08:46] (Flashback) Jiro**
Please! I'll pay for double
the number of gems.
**[08:49] (Flashback) Kamo**
J-Jiro-chan...
**[08:52] (Flashback) Jiro**
She's been stressing out a lot, too.
**[08:55] (Flashback) Jiro**
And we've been going through all this
saying we'd try our hardest together.
**[08:59] (Flashback) Jiro**
If I'm the only one who gets a
chance... it just feels wrong.
**[09:03] (Flashback) Jiro**
I don't want to leave her behind on her own.
**[09:07] Kamo**
Sheesh.
**[09:08] Kamo**
When you look at me like that, I can't
bring myself to take double the gems.
**[09:12] Kamo**
But is this really the right thing to do?
**[09:15] Kamo**
And so!
**[09:17] Kamo**
We will proceed with these pairings!
**[09:20] Jiro**
Glad to be paired with you.
**[09:21] Shiori**
N-No, the pleasure's all mine.
**[09:23] Tenjin**
Looking forward to it, Watanabe.
**[09:25] Akari**
Y-Yeah.
**[09:26] Terafune**
Hey, my lottery luck is super bad, huh?
**[09:29] Sachi**
Are you trying to pick
a fight here, you jerk?
**[09:32] Natsumi**
I'll be counting on you, Glasses-kun!
**[09:32] Terafune**
Ow, ow, ow! I'm sorry!
**[09:33] Kamo**
Of course!
**[09:34] Terafune**
You're gonna break it! You're gonna break it!
**[09:34] Mei**
So I'm just thrown in with
the odds and ends, huh?
**[09:37] Kamo's older brother**
I've left colored cones at four sites.
**[09:40] Kamo's older brother**
Please head to your
respective starting points!
**[09:44] Tenjin**
We're over there.
Shall we head over, Watanabe?
**[09:47] Akari**
Yeah.
**[09:48] Kamo's older brother**
Come on, Jiro-chan. You two get going, too!
**[09:55] Akari**
I hate this! I wanna go back already!
**[09:59] Tenjin**
I never would've guessed you'd scare so easily.
**[10:03] Tenjin**
Does this help? Or is it
better not to hold hands?
**[10:06] Akari**
H-Holding hands is... better.
**[10:08] Tenjin**
Let's stay like this, then.
**[10:10] Akari**
Th-Thanks.
**[10:13] Akari**
*So this is Minami-kun's hand.*
**[10:15] Akari**
* Even though they're both guys,*
* it's a little different.*
**[10:19] Akari**
*Jiro's hand is more...*
**[10:21] Akari**
*Wait, Jiro has nothing to do with this!*
**[10:24] Tenjin**
What is it, Watanabe?
**[10:25] Akari**
Uh... N-Nothing!
**[10:27] Akari**
Just thinking about something, kinda.
**[10:30] Akari**
Oh, right! The chat!
Let's see how the other teams are doing!
**[10:34] Akari**
Huh?
**[10:37] Akari**
I think... I might've dropped my smartphone.
***SIGN*** The 8th Test of Courage Competition

**[10:43] Mei**
Huh?
**[10:43] Natsumi**
Welcome back!
**[10:45] Shiori**
Mei-chan!
**[10:48] Shiori**
I was so scared!
**[10:49] Mei**
There, there. You did great.
**[10:51] Kamo**
Jiro-chan, any developments?
**[10:53] Jiro**
Shiori was constantly terrified,
so it wasn't really the time.
**[10:56] Kamo**
I figured that might happen.
**[10:59] Natsumi**
Still, Akari's taking a
super long time, isn't she?
**[11:02] Sachi**
Yeah, she is.
**[11:03] Jiro**
*Akari's not back yet?*
**[11:06] Terafune**
Considering Tenjin's with her,
she's taking way too long.
**[11:09] Terafune**
I'll try calli—
**[11:10] Sachi**
Leave it! Just leave it!
**[11:11] Sachi**
What if they're in the middle
of... enjoying themselves?
**[11:15] Natsumi**
That's right. Out in the dark with
no one around, just the two of them...
**[11:18] Natsumi**
They have no choice but to do things!
**[11:18] Akari**
* I hate seeing you talking with*
* those other girls all the time.*
**[11:20] Terafune**
They wouldn't do that! They wouldn't...
**[11:23] Jiro**
*What's her deal? After she said all that to me...*
**[11:28] Jiro**
And why am I irritated?
**[11:31] Jiro**
It's not like it matters, right?
**[11:34] Natsumi**
What? It's raining!
**[11:36] Sachi**
Ugh, seriously?
**[11:38] Kamo's older brother**
Oh, it's Mikkun.
**[11:40] Kamo's older brother**
Hello?
**[11:41] Kamo's older brother**
What?
**[11:43] Kamo's older brother**
Okay, got it. So you're turning back, then?
**[11:46] Kamo**
Did something happen?
**[11:47] Kamo's older brother**
Watanabe-san dropped her phone, and while
they were looking for it, they got separated.
**[11:52] Jiro; Kamo; Shiori**
What?
**[11:53] Kamo**
Are they gonna be okay?
**[11:54] Jiro**
Akari...
**[11:57] Kamo's older brother**
This area is privately owned,
so they're in no danger.
**[12:00] Kamo's older brother**
You guys can head back to your rooms.
**[12:02] Natsumi**
Yuck! It's really raining hard!
**[12:04] Sachi**
Take care of Akari for us, boss!
**[12:07] Kamo's older brother**
Leave it to me!
**[12:10] Shiori**
Jiro-kun, we'll get soaked.
**[12:12] Shiori**
Let's go back.
**[12:18] Jiro**
Sorry, Shiori.
**[12:19] Jiro**
I'm going to go look for Akari.
**[12:21] Shiori**
Jiro-kun!
**[12:27] Akari**
*What am I gonna do?*
**[12:28] Akari**
*I can't find my phone, and now it's raining.*
**[12:31] Akari**
*This seriously sucks!*
**[12:33] Akari**
*Should I head back to the cottage?*
**[12:38] Akari**
* I just let Minami-kun lead me around,*
* so I have no idea which way to go!*
**[12:47] Jiro**
Akari! Akari!
**[12:51] Akari**
* The route from the station*
* to the resort, too...*
**[12:54] Akari**
*I had Jiro look all that up for me.*
**[12:56] Akari**
All I do is rely on other people.
**[12:59] Akari**
I'm so sorry.
**[13:00] Akari**
I'm sorry.
**[13:07] Akari**
Jiro?!
**[13:10] Akari**
Minami-kun?
**[13:16] Jiro**
This is Akari's.
**[13:19] Jiro**
Where are you, Akari?
**[13:24] Tenjin**
I'm so glad you're safe.
**[13:26] Akari**
Minami-kun...
**[13:27] Tenjin**
I'm sorry we got separated. Are you okay?
**[13:30] Tenjin**
There's an azumaya gazebo over that way.
Let's move there for now.
**[13:37] Tenjin**
Yes. We'll head back once
the rain lets up a little.
**[13:40] Tenjin**
I'm very sorry. Thank you.
**[13:45] Tenjin**
Are you feeling better?
**[13:47] Akari**
Minami-kun, I'm seriously so sorry
for causing you so much trouble!
**[13:51] Akari**
I just went off on my own and...
**[13:53] Tenjin**
No, it's okay. I failed to
notice that you were gone, too.
**[13:58] Tenjin**
Just sit down and rest for now.
**[14:01] Akari**
Okay.
**[14:04] Tenjin**
Oh, and...
**[14:07] Tenjin**
Sorry I wasn't Jiro.
**[14:09] Akari**
Huh?!
**[14:13] Tenjin**
Your face!
**[14:14] Akari**
I-It's not like that! That was just...
**[14:17] Akari**
Please listen! Stop laughing, Minami-kun!
**[14:21] Tenjin**
Sorry! It was just way more of
a reaction than I expected.
**[14:25] Tenjin**
I see. So it's Yakuin, huh?
**[14:27] Akari**
Jiro has nothing to do with this!
**[14:29] Tenjin**
Your face is way too red.
You're not convincing at all.
**[14:32] Akari**
No, just listen!
**[14:34] Akari**
The person I love is...
**[14:36] Tenjin**
But it does make me feel a little sad.
**[14:38] Akari**
Huh?
**[14:40] Jiro**
Crap. There's just so much rain!
**[14:42] Shiori**
Jiro-kun!
**[14:44] Shiori**
Jeez, Jiro-kun! I've been looking for you!
**[14:48] Jiro**
Shiori...
**[14:49] Shiori**
Listen! They found Akari-chan!
**[14:52] Jiro**
What? For real?
**[14:54] Shiori**
Minami-kun found her.
**[14:57] Shiori**
They're taking shelter
from the rain right now.
**[15:00] Shiori**
They'll head back once it lets up.
**[15:02] Shiori**
Isn't that great? It's such a relief!
**[15:05] Jiro**
Yeah.
**[15:06] Jiro**
It's great.
**[15:13] Jiro**
You came all the way out
here just to let me know?
**[15:15] Shiori**
Well, you weren't reading your messages.
**[15:17] Shiori**
I was worried.
**[15:19] Jiro**
Sorry.
**[15:21] Shiori**
It's okay.
**[15:22] Shiori**
I know that's just how hard
you were looking for her.
**[15:25] Shiori**
You were truly worried about Akari-chan.
**[15:29] Jiro**
I was freaking out all on
my own and getting nowhere.
**[15:32] Jiro**
If Tenjin was going to find her anyway,
**[15:34] Jiro**
I should've just stayed
and waited where I was.
**[15:37] Jiro**
I'm such a loser.
**[15:38] Shiori**
You are *not* a loser!
**[15:40] Shiori**
You're very kind...
**[15:43] Shiori**
And since the practical started,
you've become really cool.
**[15:49] Shiori**
Akari-chan knows a Jiro-kun
that I don't know.
**[15:53] Shiori**
I envy her just a little bit.
**[15:55] Jiro**
What are you talking about?
**[15:57] Jiro**
The "me" you've seen all this
time is the same "me" I am now.
**[16:00] Shiori**
But I've never seen the husband side of you.
**[16:04] Shiori**
I keep thinking you must
be different like that.
**[16:06] Jiro**
You think so?
**[16:08] Jiro**
I don't think anything really changes
just because you're married.
**[16:13] Jiro**
And it's not like Akari and I are
actually in love with each other.
**[16:19] Shiori**
*Jiro-kun...*
**[16:21] Shiori**
* Even that expression you're making*
* right now is one I don't know.*
**[16:25] Jiro**
And anyway, what about you?
With Tenjin, I mean.
**[16:28] Shiori**
Huh?
**[16:28] Jiro**
You know, um...
**[16:30] Jiro**
That thing we did before... Practicing.
What happened after that?
**[16:36] Jiro**
Huh? Really? You and Tenjin...
**[16:38] Shiori**
N-No! Nothing happened!
**[16:41] Jiro**
But you seem really shaken right now.
**[16:43] Shiori**
It's not that! I just remembered
kissing you, and...
**[16:49] Shiori**
Um...
**[16:50] Shiori**
I haven't done anything like that since then.
**[16:55] Jiro**
Oh.
**[16:58] Shiori**
My first was you...
**[17:02] Shiori**
but was it different for you?
**[17:05] Jiro**
Um... Well, I mean...
**[17:07] Shiori**
Of course! Sorry for asking
such a weird question!
**[17:11] Shiori**
And for getting so flustered all on my own.
**[17:13] Jiro**
Shiori?
**[17:13] Shiori**
The rain's let up now, so...
**[17:17] Jiro**
You'll get soaked.
**[17:22] Shiori**
You've been beside me all this
time, and now I feel so lonely!
**[17:27] Shiori**
Once we grow up, being childhood friends
won't be enough to keep me by your side.
**[17:33] Shiori**
I'm so sorry. I just... Akari-chan is...
**[17:39] Shiori**
If Akari-chan isn't special to you,
**[17:42] Shiori**
then will you show me...
**[17:44] Shiori**
a part of you that
**[17:47] Shiori**
Akari-chan doesn't know?
**[17:54] Akari**
Minami-kun, um... What did you
mean when you said you felt sad?
**[17:59] Tenjin**
Hmm... It's like...
**[18:01] Tenjin**
how an older brother feels getting
introduced to his little sister's boyfriend?
**[18:06] Akari**
Little sister?
**[18:07] Tenjin**
Yeah.
**[18:11] Akari**
*Oh. I get it.*
**[18:13] Akari**
*He's turning me down right now.*
**[18:17] Akari**
*But I have to give it my very best.*
**[18:19] Akari**
*Because I made a promise with Jiro*
**[18:22] Akari**
*that we'd get to A-rank and change partners!*
**[18:26] Akari**
Minami-kun, if...
**[18:29] Akari**
If I became your wife and we spent time
together in the marriage practical,
**[18:34] Akari**
then would that feeling of me
being your little sister...
**[18:39] Akari**
*Huh?*
**[18:40] Akari**
*Why am I trying so hard again?*
**[18:44] Tenjin**
Watanabe, I'm sorry.
The truth is, I noticed a long time ago
**[18:48] Tenjin**
that you were looking at me that way.
**[18:50] Akari**
Huh?
**[18:52] Akari**
What?!
**[18:53] Tenjin**
I mean, it'd be hard not to notice.
**[18:55] Tenjin**
It really made me happy
that you felt that way,
**[18:58] Tenjin**
but I'm in love with someone else.
**[19:04] Akari**
It's Sakurazaka-san, isn't it?
**[19:06] Tenjin**
Huh?
**[19:07] Akari**
Huh?
**[19:10] Tenjin**
Hang on! You've got this *way* wrong!
**[19:12] Akari**
Huh? What? You... Huh?
**[19:14] Tenjin**
So that's what you thought, huh?
**[19:17] Akari**
Please stop laughing!
**[19:19] Tenjin**
Sorry. There's nothing between me and Shiori.
**[19:22] Akari**
What? You're kidding.
**[19:24] Akari**
Who, then? Someone in your class?
**[19:27] Tenjin**
It's someone you don't know.
**[19:32] Tenjin**
It's an unrequited love.
**[19:34] Tenjin**
And it'll probably stay that way forever.
**[19:39] Tenjin**
A love with no future is just pointless.
**[19:43] Tenjin**
I know how much that hurts,
**[19:46] Tenjin**
so when I think about how I've made
you go through the same thing,
**[19:49] Tenjin**
I just feel so bad.
**[19:52] Tenjin**
That's why I was relieved
when I heard Yakuin's name.
**[19:55] Tenjin**
I'm happy for you.
**[19:57] Akari**
Even if...
**[19:59] Akari**
Even if Jiro's in love with someone else, too?
**[20:02] Tenjin**
Yakuin's dating someone?
**[20:04] Akari**
No, he isn't, but...
**[20:07] Tenjin**
Then it's all up to how hard you try, isn't it?
**[20:10] Tenjin**
There's still a chance that
Yakuin will choose you, right?
**[20:13] Akari**
B-But what if I tell him and it
makes things weird between us?
**[20:17] Tenjin**
You used to be more
optimistic about stuff than that.
**[20:20] Tenjin**
Are things weird between us now?
**[20:23] Akari**
No.
**[20:26] Tenjin**
I hope your love is something
you can enjoy this time.
**[20:30] Tenjin**
It's like I'm entrusting my hopes to you...
**[20:33] Tenjin**
Because it's something I wasn't able to do.
**[20:36] Tenjin**
Sorry to do this after you were
kind enough to fall in love with me.
**[20:40] Akari**
That's wrong!
**[20:43] Akari**
Because I've had so much fun all this time!
**[20:46] Akari**
Every time we talked, my heart raced so fast.
**[20:49] Akari**
When our eyes met, I'd be walking on clouds.
**[20:51] Akari**
So please don't say things like that.
**[20:54] Akari**
I didn't fall in love with you
to make you apologize to me.
**[20:58] Akari**
Thank you, Minami-kun. I mean it.
**[21:01] Akari**
I really loved you!
**[21:05] Tenjin**
I'm the one who should thank you.
**[21:07] Tenjin**
Your feelings have reached me.
***SIGN*** In this moment when I've deceived you on a cosmic scale
***SIGN*** I want to give love a try
**[21:12] Akari**
*I'm glad I fell in love.*
**[21:15] Akari**
*I'm truly glad I fell in love with this guy.*
***SIGN*** In this night when everything begins to overflow
***SIGN*** I match my stride to yours
**[21:20] Akari**
Okay!
***SIGN*** The clock hands stop, charmed by a fleeting curse
**[21:21] Akari**
I'll give it my best!
**[21:22] Akari**
I'll try my hardest with Jiro
so that I won't have any regrets!
**[21:26] Tenjin**
Being upbeat is much more like you.
***SIGN*** The answers always slip away
**[21:29] Tenjin**
I gotta hurry up and move forward, too.
***SIGN*** All I want is to do it over again
**[21:31] Akari**
You'll be able to find someone right away.
**[21:34] Tenjin**
Thanks. I'll do my best.
***SIGN*** If I did, would this unsettling gloom inside me disappear?
***SIGN*** I want to know where my heart is hiding
***SIGN*** One day this will end
**[21:48] Akari**
*It's Sakurazaka-san, isn't it?*
***SIGN*** I know that
**[21:51] Tenjin**
*I never imagined she'd think that.*
***SIGN*** And I know the signs of discord
***SIGN*** Turn them inside out
**[21:54] Tenjin**
* And Shiori seems like she has*
* someone she's in love with, too.*
***SIGN*** Don't let them pile up
***SIGN*** I don't want things to stay unfinished like this
**[21:57] Tenjin**
*I hope it hasn't kicked off any weird rumors.*
**[22:01] Tenjin**
*But in any case...*
***SIGN*** In this moment when I've deceived you on a cosmic scale
**[22:03] Tenjin**
*I hope it works out for both of them.*
***SIGN*** I want to give love a try
***SIGN*** Everything begins to overflow
***SIGN*** On this day when we don't know how much time is left to us
***SIGN*** I want your thoughts to drift toward me fondly, again and again
***SIGN*** It's my fault
***SIGN*** It gets stuck in my throat
***SIGN*** That stagnant, hesitant air
***SIGN*** And turns into a thorn
***SIGN*** When that happens, no matter how much time passes,
***SIGN*** I'll never be able to forget it
***SIGN*** It's your fault
***SIGN*** That my fragile heart is so stirred into action
***SIGN*** In this moment when I've deceived you on a cosmic scale
***SIGN*** I want to give love a try
***SIGN*** In this night where everything begins to overflow
***SIGN*** I match my stride to yours
***SIGN*** The clock hands stop, charmed by a fleeting curse
***SIGN*** No matter what I sing, no matter what I eat
***SIGN*** The only one I want to tell about it is you
***SIGN*** On this day when we don't know how much time is left to us
***SIGN*** I want your thoughts to drift toward me fondly, again and again
***SIGN*** (Oh why)
***SIGN*** (Oh why)
**[23:50] Sachi**
How long are they gonna stay like that?
**[23:52] Sachi**
They should just hook up already.
**[23:54] Natsumi**
You don't understand a thing!
**[23:55] Sachi**
What?
**[23:56] Natsumi**
You don't understand a thing!
**[23:58] Sachi**
Natsumi!
**[23:59] Natsumi**
This is a declaration of war!
**[24:01] Sachi**
Stop, Natsumi!
Come back to your senses!

Get dizzy from staying in the

**[00:14] Akari**
I'm sorry, gods!
**[00:15] Akari**
The person on my mind has
changed since last time,
**[00:18] Akari**
so I've come to ask again.
**[00:20] Akari**
My chances may be really low, but...
**[00:28] (Flashback) Kamo**
Kinda feels like something scandalous
happened while those two were all alone.
**[00:38] Akari**
But I'll do everything I can!
**[00:40] Akari**
And so I ask for your favor!
**[00:51] Shiori**
It's hopeless.
**[00:52] Shiori**
It's popped up in my memory
every day since then.
**[00:57] Shiori**
*If Akari-chan isn't special to you,*
**[00:59] Shiori**
*then will you show me...*
**[01:02] Shiori**
*a part of you that*
**[01:05] Shiori**
*Akari-chan doesn't know?*
**[01:09] Shiori**
Why did I do that?
**[01:11] Shiori**
I'm so glad summer break
started right after that!
**[01:17] Shiori**
*I panicked. I know that.*
**[01:20] (Flashback) Shiori**
My first was you...
**[01:24] (Flashback) Shiori**
but was it different for you?
**[01:27] (Flashback) Jiro**
Um... Well, I mean...
**[01:33] Shiori**
* Before that kiss with me in the*
* nurse's office, Jiro-kun had already...*
**[01:39] Shiori**
*I didn't want to know...*
**[01:41] Shiori**
*But it's easy to tell.*
**[01:47] Shiori**
*Jiro-kun's wife is Akari-chan...*
**[01:51] Shiori**
* So does that mean I'm just*
* his childhood friend?*
**[01:54] Shiori**
* That's awful. It's like I'm*
* someone he had an affair with.*
**[02:05] Shiori**
*Jiro-kun...*
**[02:07] Shiori**
*What were you feeling when you kissed me?*
**[02:11] Shiori**
I...
**[02:14] Shiori**
Jiro-kun...
***SIGN*** What percentage does "like" have to hit before you can call it "love"?

**[04:02] Shiori**
*I'm so sorry!*
**[04:04] Shiori**
* Once we grow up, being childhood friends*
* won't be enough to keep me by your side.*
**[04:17] Jiro**
*Is it that moment with Shiori again?*
**[04:21] Jiro**
*In that moment, Shiori kissed me...*
**[04:24] Jiro**
*And it didn't seem like she hated it.*
**[04:27] Jiro**
* To be honest, I felt like it*
* was the only chance I'd get...*
**[04:30] Jiro**
* Like the first love I'd half given up on*
* might bloom in that moment.*
**[04:36] Jiro**
* But afterward, Shiori*
* apologized over and over,*
**[04:40] Jiro**
*and then she only said, "Let's head back."*
**[04:43] Jiro**
*What was she feeling?*
**[04:45] Jiro**
*Why did she kiss me and then apologize?*
**[04:48] Jiro**
*And anyway, that kind of thing...*
**[04:49] Jiro**
* First you fall in love and confess,*
* then you start going out, hold hands...*
**[04:53] Jiro**
*Shouldn't it come* after *all that?*
**[04:56] Jiro**
* What did she mean when she said being*
* childhood friends wasn't enough to stay close?*
**[05:00] Jiro**
*What am I supposed to do?*
**[05:04] Jiro**
* If I had more EXP built up, I'd probably be*
* able to come up with an answer, but...*
**[05:09] Jiro**
No matter how much I think
about it, I have no idea!
**[05:11] Jiro**
I think I'll go buy some cola,
potato chips, and manga for now.

I-I never thought we'd
meet in a place like this.
**[05:36] Jiro**
Y-Yes, indeed.
**[05:40] Shiori**
Why are you being so formal?
**[05:42] Jiro**
I was just so surprised...
**[05:44] Jiro**
Wait, so... you read manga?
**[05:49] Shiori**
No, I went to the shop next
door to buy notebooks,
**[05:52] Shiori**
and my little brother asked me to get this.
**[05:55] Jiro**
Little brother... You mean Kenta?
**[05:57] Shiori**
Yeah. He's been wanting to see you.
**[06:00] Jiro**
What? He remembers me?
**[06:02] Shiori**
Yeah. Since I've mentioned you,
he's been wondering about you.
**[06:05] Jiro**
You... talk about me?
**[06:08] Shiori**
Oh, it looks like this is the last copy.
**[06:11] Shiori**
Here, you take it.
**[06:12] Jiro**
Huh? I couldn't!
**[06:14] Jiro**
It's okay. I was gonna go
shopping after this, anyway.
**[06:18] Jiro**
You can buy it and take it home.
**[06:21] Shiori**
You really are kind.
**[06:23] Jiro**
Huh? Did you say something?
**[06:25] Shiori**
No, nothing.
**[06:28] Shiori**
Thank you.
**[06:30] Jiro**
*What a relief!*
**[06:31] Jiro**
* It was probably better*
* to talk like this today*
**[06:33] Jiro**
* than starting out the new term*
* with things still awkward.*
**[06:37] Jiro**
Whoa, are you serious?
**[06:39] Shiori**
I think it's just a passing
summer shower, but...
**[06:42] Jiro**
I didn't think it would rain.
**[06:45] Shiori**
You don't have an umbrella?
**[06:47] Jiro**
No. Maybe I'll buy one somewhere nearby.
**[06:54] Jiro**
* "Well, I'll see you next term."*
* Is that what I say now?*
**[06:58] Jiro**
*Is this where this event ends?*
**[07:00] Jiro**
* Isn't this actually a chance*
* to cement some future plans?*
**[07:04] Jiro**
*But then again...*
**[07:06] Jiro**
*Oh, come on! Say something, me!*
**[07:12] Shiori**
Um, do you want to come to my place?
**[07:15] Shiori**
The one at the training dorm?
**[07:16] Jiro**
Huh?
**[07:17] Shiori**
It's nearby.
**[07:19] Shiori**
And I'd like to talk some
more until the rain lets up.
**[07:22] Shiori**
What do you think?
**[07:24] Jiro**
Are you sure?
**[07:25] Shiori**
S-Since this was so sudden,
I don't have anything prepared,
**[07:28] Shiori**
but since I got the chance to see you...
**[07:31] Shiori**
Only if you have time, though.
**[07:34] Jiro**
Th-Thank you for inviting me over.
**[07:41] Shiori**
Hang on just a minute.
**[07:43] Shiori**
I want to make sure it isn't too messy.
**[07:48] Jiro**
*My hands are sweating like crazy!*
**[07:50] Jiro**
*I hope I don't smell sweaty...*
**[07:54] Shiori**
Welcome home, darling.
**[07:57] Jiro**
Huh?
**[07:59] Shiori**
J-Just kidding!
**[08:02] Shiori**
Sorry for doing that out of nowhere.
Well, please, come on in!
**[08:05] Jiro**
Th-Thank you for having me.
**[08:17] Shiori**
The place is pretty stark, isn't it?
**[08:20] Shiori**
There's nothing at all in here.
**[08:22] Jiro**
My place is the same way!
**[08:24] Jiro**
And all the furniture's the same,
so I kinda feel at home.
**[08:27] Shiori**
May I sit next to you?
**[08:29] Jiro**
O-Of course! It's your place, after all.
**[08:40] Jiro**
It smells amazing.
**[08:42] Shiori**
What?!
**[08:44] Jiro**
Is this, y'know, quality stuff?
**[08:46] Shiori**
Oh, uh... Y-Yes, it's pretty much the real deal.
**[08:51] Jiro**
Wow, really?
**[08:53] Jiro**
Just what I'd expect from you!
**[08:56] Shiori**
*Of course he meant the coffee!*
**[08:59] Shiori**
*I'm such an idiot!*
**[09:13] Jiro**
*I am way too happy right now!*
**[09:16] Jiro**
* I haven't taken in a*
* single word of this manga,*
**[09:18] Jiro**
*but I don't even care!*
**[09:21] Jiro**
*Her outfit is so demure...*
**[09:23] Jiro**
*She's so cute!*
**[09:25] Jiro**
* Her skin is so pale,*
* and her wrists are so slender.*
**[09:28] Jiro**
*And she smells nice.*
**[09:31] Jiro**
* She's slim and dainty,*
* but she seems soft, too.*
**[09:33] Jiro**
*And her eyelashes are so long...*
**[09:37] Shiori**
Um... Does something about me look weird?
**[09:41] Jiro**
N-No... I was just wondering
what you're reading.
**[09:44] Shiori**
Oh, this? It's a novel called
*Hello Summer, Goodbye*.
**[09:48] Shiori**
It's really good.
I'll lend it to you sometime.
**[09:51] Jiro**
Th-Thanks.
**[09:52] Shiori**
I-I'm just going to go...
**[09:54] Jiro**
S-Sure.
**[09:59] Shiori**
* When our eyes met,*
* he looked so uncomfortable.*
**[10:02] Shiori**
* Maybe it was too pushy of me*
* to invite him over after all.*
**[10:07] Shiori**
*Was he bored?*
**[10:09] Shiori**
* Or maybe he couldn't bring himself*
* to say he wanted to leave?*
**[10:13] Shiori**
What if he hates me now?
**[10:17] Jiro**
*Does she hate me now?*
**[10:19] Jiro**
* Is she fed up because I don't*
* know how to take the lead?*
**[10:25] Jiro**
*But I mean... It's just...*
**[10:28] Jiro**
*I'm alone in a room with a girl who kissed me!*
**[10:31] Jiro**
*It'd be impossible* not *to be
overly conscious of her!*
**[10:38] Jiro**
* Shiori isn't the type to be that*
* assertive with just anyone.*
**[10:41] Jiro**
*So the fact that she kissed me...*
**[10:43] Jiro**
* I'm allowed to be a little*
* happy about that, right?*
**[10:46] Jiro**
* Maybe we do need to have a good*
* talk about what happened that day...*
**[10:50] Shiori**
Jiro-kun!
**[10:51] Jiro**
Yes?
**[10:52] Shiori**
Look outside!
**[10:53] Jiro**
Huh?
**[10:55] Jiro**
Whoa!
**[10:56] Shiori**
It's a double rainbow!
**[10:58] Jiro**
That's so cool!
**[11:00] Shiori**
I've never seen anything
like it before! It's beautiful!
**[11:05] Shiori**
Oh, I know!
**[11:08] Shiori**
I'll get a shot with the rainbow.
You get in it, too!
**[11:10] Jiro**
Huh? Y-You sure?
**[11:12] Shiori**
Okay! I'm taking it!
**[11:15] Shiori**
It looks great!
**[11:17] Shiori**
Double rainbows bring happiness.
**[11:21] Shiori**
I hope something nice happens.
**[11:23] Jiro**
Could you send that to me, too?
**[11:25] Shiori**
Of course!
**[11:26] Jiro**
Thanks.
**[11:28] Shiori**
Let's see...
**[11:30] Jiro**
*Is it... now?*
**[11:33] Jiro**
* If I'm going to take a step,*
* is now the time?*
**[11:36] Jiro**
Um, I...
**[11:38] Shiori**
Look. You're in this one, too!
**[11:40] Shiori**
I'll send it at the same time.
**[11:43] Shiori**
It's the one we took at the beach.
I really love this photo.
**[11:47] Shiori**
Everyone looks so happy.
**[11:55] Shiori**
Oh, right. Were you
about to say something?
**[11:59] Jiro**
Huh? Oh...
**[12:01] Jiro**
Uh, never mind. I forgot what it was.
**[12:05] Jiro**
The beach was fun, wasn't it?
**[12:07] Shiori**
Yeah!
**[12:11] Jiro**
* I've been running from romance and*
* that kind of thing all this time.*
**[12:15] Jiro**
*Which feeling is friendship?*
**[12:17] Jiro**
*Where does love start?*
**[12:19] Jiro**
* They're my own feelings, but at some point,*
* I couldn't understand them anymore.*
**[12:29] Jiro**
* Why did I decide not to say*
* anything in that moment?*
**[12:34] Jiro**
* Getting to a good place with*
* Shiori was my dream, and yet...*
**[12:39] Jiro**
*It's probably just Kamo.*
**[12:41] Jiro**
*Sorry, but I'm in no mood to deal with you.*
**[12:45] Jiro**
Oh, for crying out loud, what do you want?!

*During summer break? Me and Akari?*
**[13:25] Jiro**
* Points for the practical aren't*
* being counted right now!*
**[13:28] Jiro**
*There's nothing in it for her, right?*
**[13:29] Jiro**
*What kind of trap is this?*
**[13:30] Jiro**
* Up until now, the two of us have only ever*
* gone out to do regular errands, like shopping!*
**[13:34] Akari**
That way next!
**[13:34] Jiro**
* She's not gonna make me buy*
* her a ton of clothes, is she?*
**[13:37] Natsumi**
Virgin-kun, you seriously came here?
**[13:37] Jiro**
* Or maybe it's not even that!*
* She might just be messing with me!*
**[13:39] Sachi**
That's hilarious! It was just a joke!

you'd take me seriously.

**[13:51] Jiro**
Should I decline?
**[13:53] Jiro**
I just told her I was bored, though.
**[13:55] Jiro**
I don't have anything I can wear
to walk around with a gyaru!
**[14:01] Jiro**
*Ten minutes early, huh?*
**[14:03] Jiro**
* A plain white T-shirt should*

**[14:12] Jiro**
*It's nearly time.*
**[14:14] Jiro**
Jeez, she didn't even show up.
**[14:17] Jiro**
*I mean, I knew it was coming, but...*
***SIGN*** 15 minutes later
**[14:21] Jiro**
Guess I'll go home.
**[14:22] Akari**
Jiro!
**[14:23] Akari**
I'm so glad you're still here!
**[14:25] Akari**
It took longer than I thought to get ready.
**[14:28] Akari**
I ran out in a rush.
**[14:30] Akari**
Then, after I got to the station,
I realized I'd forgotten my phone.
**[14:33] Akari**
I'm super sorry!
**[14:36] Akari**
Jiro, are you angry?
**[14:38] Jiro**
Huh? Uh, no, I'm not.
**[14:41] Jiro**
I didn't think you'd really come, anyway.
**[14:43] Akari**
What?!
**[14:44] Akari**
What does that mean?
**[14:45] Jiro**
S-Sorry!
**[14:46] Jiro**
Um, it's just that we don't usually
do stuff like this with just us two,
**[14:50] Jiro**
so I guess I just couldn't imagine it.
**[14:52] Akari**
But... I told you it was a date, didn't I?
**[14:55] Akari**
After all the effort I put in to get ready,
there's no way I wouldn't show up.
**[15:00] Akari**
Hey...
**[15:01] Akari**
Do I look cute?
**[15:04] Akari**
You have nothing to say?
**[15:06] Jiro**
I-It's not like the stuff you usually wear,
so it's new and different!
**[15:09] Akari**
And?
**[15:10] Jiro**
Um, I think clothes like the ones you're
wearing today... are really nice.
**[15:15] Akari**
Thanks. That makes me really happy.
**[15:18] Akari**
Because this outfit is just for you.
**[15:20] Jiro**
Huh?
**[15:21] Akari**
You said before that you
liked things like this, right?
**[15:25] Akari**
So... It's not the kind of thing I'd normally wear,
**[15:29] Akari**
so buying it was a first for me.
**[15:30] Jiro**
*What?*
**[15:32] Jiro**
*Huh? Why?*
**[15:33] Jiro**
*She wanted it to suit my tastes?*
**[15:36] Jiro**
Huh?
**[15:38] Akari**
Okay, let's go!
**[15:41] Akari**
I have a ton of places I wanna go today!
**[15:43] Akari**
Come with me to all of them, okay?
**[15:45] Jiro**
*Wha... What is even going on here?!*
**[15:52] Akari**
Which one should I get?
**[15:54] Akari**
Have you decided what you're getting?
**[15:55] Jiro**
No... I don't even know
which way is up right now.
**[15:58] Akari**
Then you should get this one.
**[16:01] Jiro**
*I seriously have no idea.*
**[16:02] Jiro**
*Why is Akari doing this with me?*
**[16:05] Akari**
I bet you didn't know
about this café, right?
**[16:07] Jiro**
I'd heard of it. We saw it on TV together.
**[16:10] Jiro**
You said it was a favorite of yours.
**[16:13] Akari**
You remembered.
**[16:16] Akari**
And now it's your momentous Ex-choco debut.
**[16:18] Akari**
Drink up! Hurry!
**[16:21] Akari**
Like it?
**[16:22] Jiro**
Yeah! Even more than I imagined!
**[16:24] Akari**
Really? But isn't it bitter?
**[16:27] Jiro**
There is some bitterness, but it's good.
**[16:29] Akari**
Let me taste it!
**[16:30] Jiro**
Huh?
**[16:31] Akari**
I can't? You're so stingy.
**[16:34] Jiro**
Go ahead.
**[16:38] Akari**
Ugh! You liar! It's super bitter!
**[16:42] Akari**
I know that face.
**[16:44] Akari**
You're thinking, "That was an
indirect kiss," aren't you?
**[16:46] Jiro**
No... er, yes, I am.
**[16:48] Akari**
Jeez, stop getting all
embarrassed over stuff like that.
**[16:51] Akari**
It makes me feel embarrassed, too.
**[16:54] Jiro**
*Huh?*
**[16:56] Jiro**
*Has Akari always been like this?*
**[16:59] Akari**
They're so cute!
**[17:01] Jiro**
Oh, wow! They really are just
lying around everywhere!
**[17:02] Akari**
They're just too cute!
**[17:05] Akari**
They really are used to this! How cute!
**[17:08] Jiro**
* I'm used to seeing Akari*
* smile like this now,*
**[17:11] Akari**
There, there.
**[17:11] Jiro**
* but I never would've imagined it*
* based on my first impression of her.*
**[17:15] Jiro**
*If we hadn't been a married couple,*
**[17:17] Jiro**
* I'd probably never have*
* known this side of her.*
**[17:17] Akari**
Here?
**[17:20] Akari**
You're such a good kitty.
**[17:23] Akari**
Oh, it's so cute!
**[17:26] Jiro**
That's all you've said since we got here.
**[17:28] Akari**
Yeah, because my dearest
wish has come true!
**[17:30] Akari**
Here, Jiro! Try petting it!
**[17:32] Akari**
It's really soft!
**[17:34] Akari**
See?
**[17:35] Jiro**
You're right!
**[17:36] Akari**
Meow.
**[17:40] Jiro**
* Playing games through the night every*
* day is the real thrill of summer break,*
**[17:45] Jiro**
* but it might be okay to have*
* days like this sometimes, too.*
**[17:49] Jiro**
*That's what I found myself thinking.*
**[17:52] Akari**
I'll send you that picture in the chat, okay?
**[17:55] Jiro**
Sure. Thanks.
**[17:57] Akari**
Oh! I'll send this, too.
**[17:59] Akari**
A picture from the cat café.
**[18:00] Jiro**
Ack! When did someone take that?
**[18:04] Akari**
The lady said, "I'm taking your picture now."
**[18:06] Jiro**
I didn't notice at all.
**[18:08] Jiro**
Plus, this picture looks sort of like...
**[18:11] Jiro**
a family photo, doesn't it?
**[18:14] Akari**
Huh?
**[18:16] Jiro**
I mean, it might be because of
the way it was taken, but...
**[18:19] Jiro**
It's like the cat is the baby, and...
**[18:22] Jiro**
I-I-I was just thinking that some
family photos look like that, is all!
**[18:25] Jiro**
*She must be so creeped out!*
**[18:27] Akari**
That's hilarious! What the heck?
**[18:29] Jiro**
*Huh? She isn't creeped out?*
**[18:32] Akari**
It'd be nice if we could keep it
as a pet during our practical.
**[18:35] Jiro**
I guess... it would.
**[18:37] Akari**
Let's go to the cat café together
again. I'll invite you.
***SIGN*** Pedestrian Crossing Signal
**[18:40] Jiro**
* Could it be that she invited me because*
* she actually wanted to hang out with me?*
**[18:45] Jiro**
You said yours is the
upstairs ticket gate, right?
**[18:48] Akari**
That's right. What about you?
**[18:50] Jiro**
I'm taking the subway.
**[18:51] Akari**
What? Oh, sorry! We already passed that!
**[18:53] Jiro**
Don't be! It's really close.
**[18:56] Akari**
This kinda feels weird, doesn't it?
**[18:58] Akari**
We usually go home to the same place,
**[19:00] Akari**
but this time we're saying goodbye
and going to different places.
**[19:03] Jiro**
Yeah.
**[19:05] Akari**
But... that's going to
happen eventually, isn't it?
**[19:08] Akari**
I might feel a little lonely.
**[19:10] Akari**
Just kidding! Oh!
**[19:12] Jiro**
Huh?
**[19:12] Akari**
I forgot to buy a charm at the shrine!
**[19:15] Jiro**
A charm? What kind?
**[19:17] Akari**
I-I'll tell you later!
**[19:19] Jiro**
Huh? Hey, Akari!
**[19:22] Jiro**
Hey, wait up! Akari!
**[19:27] Shiori**
Jiro-kun? And Watanabe-san, too?
**[19:30] Jiro**
Shiori?
**[19:31] Akari**
Sakurazaka-san?
**[19:33] Akari**
What a coincidence. Were you shopping?
**[19:35] Akari**
You're carrying a lot.
**[19:36] Shiori**
Yeah. You two, too?
**[19:39] Akari**
That's right. I figured he'd be holed
up in his room without me around,
**[19:43] Akari**
so I thought I'd get him a little sunlight.
**[19:46] Shiori**
I see. Are you on your way home now?
**[19:48] Akari**
Yeah. I just have something
to do at the shrine.
**[19:53] Shiori**
Watanabe-san, do you remember that
we met at the shrine in the spring?
**[19:57] Akari**
Oh, yeah.
**[19:58] Shiori**
I was just about to go pay my respects there.
**[20:05] Shiori**
Can I go, too? Want to race?
**[20:08] Jiro**
Huh? What? Race?
**[20:11] Akari**
Sure. Let's do it! No holding back!
**[20:14] Jiro**
What?!
**[20:16] Akari**
Okay, then, Jiro...
**[20:17] Jiro**
Huh? Wai—
**[20:18] Shiori**
Would you?
**[20:18] Jiro**
Hang on! Hey!
**[20:28] Shiori**
Ready...
**[20:30] Shiori; Akari**
Go!
**[20:51] Boy**
Here!
**[20:52] Girl**
Got it!
**[21:39] Shiori**
Watanabe-san, you're really fast!
**[21:42] Akari**
You're not bad yourself, Sakurazaka-san!
**[21:45] Elderly Wife**
Oh, my. What's happened here?
**[21:47] Elderly Wife**
Are you girls all right?
**[21:50] Akari**
I'm sorry we worried you. We were
just racing each other, that's all.
**[21:55] Elderly Wife**
Oh, is that so? You gave us a fright.
**[21:58] Elderly Wife**
Didn't they, Jiro-san?
**[21:59] Elderly Husband**
Yes, they did.
**[22:05] Akari; Shiori**
Jiro?
**[22:06] Elderly Wife**
Come, now. If you don't pay
attention, you'll trip and fall.
**[22:10] Elderly Husband**
Right.
**[22:11] Elderly Wife**
Honestly...
**[22:12] Akari**
He does seem a little like Jiro.
**[22:13] Elderly Wife**
Come on.
**[22:14] Shiori**
He really does.
**[22:27] Jiro**
I have no idea what's going on.
**[22:31] Akari**
Now, really put your hearts into it!
**[22:33] Shiori**
Right!
**[22:39] Jiro**

**[23:37] Akari**
Thanks! I'll handle the rest myself.
**[23:40] Jiro**
Okay, thanks.
**[23:46] Jiro**
Akari! I'll help make dinner!

Hang on a sec.
**[24:00] Jiro**
This is...
**[24:00] Akari**
Go like this, and then like this...
**[24:03] Akari**
And it's done!
