[00:14] Yanagieda
    Nishimura-san always looks so gloomy.
[00:17] Moriguchi
    Totally. Major Grim Reaper vibes.
[00:20] Takada
    Huh?
[00:24] Voice 1
    Good morning!
[00:25] Voice 2
    Good morning!
[00:25] Kitagawa
    Aw, crap!
[00:26] Kitagawa
    I didn't wanna see
    the Grim Reaper first thing!

[00:30] Tanaka
    Better get away from her!
[00:32] Tanaka
    Don't want the Grim Reaper's curse!
[00:34] Yamamoto
    Barrier! Barrier!
[00:41] Sign
    Push to cross
[00:44] Kitagawa

[02:53] Girl B
    Good morning!
[02:56] Girl C
    Good morning, Adachi-san!
[02:57] Umi
    Hey! Good morning.
[03:00] Girl B
    Did you catch that TV drama last night?
[03:05] Tanaka
    That's the book the Grim Reaper
     was reading earlier!
[03:08] Yamamoto
    What? Nishimura was?
[03:10] Kitagawa
    Don't touch it! You'll catch her curse!
[03:13] Kurokawa
    Nishimura-san really does seem
     like a Grim Reaper, doesn't she?
[03:17] Kurokawa
    See? Just look at her.
[03:19] Yanagieda
    Is she casting her curse
    on those goldfish, you think?
[03:23] Moriguchi
    Oh, no! How terrifying!
[03:25] Kurokawa
    Don't they kinda look like piranhas now?
[03:31] Takada
    I'm new to this class,
    so I don't know the story,
[03:36] Takada
    but Nishimura-san the Grim Reaper...
[03:38] Takada
    Why does everyone call her that?
[03:42] Takada
    Dang it!
[03:43] Takada
    That's...
[03:44] Takada
    That's such an awesome nickname!
[04:04] Takada
    Nishimura-san!
[04:07] Takada
    Nishimura-san!
[04:09] Nishimura
    Um... Takada-kun?
[04:12] Takada
    Hey, I wanna ask you something.
[04:15] Nishimura
    Huh? Okay... What is it?
[04:18] Takada
    Nishimura-san, why does everyone
    call you... the Grim Reaper?
[04:23] Nishimura
    I can't say for sure.
[04:28] Nishimura
    It's probably because of my glaring eyes.
[04:33] Nishimura
    I must remind them of a dead fish.
[04:36] Takada
    I see.
[04:38] Takada
    So you really are special, then.
[04:40] Nishimura
    Hmm?
[04:41] Takada
    I've been thinking about it
    ever since I got to school.
[04:44] Takada
    It's just so cool!
[04:47] Nishimura
    Um...
[04:48] Nishimura
    Takada-kun, you should keep
    your distance just like everyone else.
[04:52] Nishimura
    If not, they say you'll catch my curse.
[04:54] Takada
    I will?!
[04:55] Takada
    Tell me more! Tell me more!
[04:56] Takada
    That's so radical!
[04:58] Nishimura
    It's a deadly curse that spreads
     when you get near me or touch me.
[05:04] Takada
    A deadly curse?!
[05:05] Takada
    We're only in grade school,
    but you've got such fearsome power?!
[05:09] Takada
    Man, that's incredible! I'm so jealous!
[05:13] Nishimura
    Wait... What?
[05:15] Nishimura
    I-It's nothing to be jealous of.
[05:17] Nishimura
    Everyone avoids me...
[05:19] Takada
    I-It's that powerful?!
[05:21] Takada
    Must be nice! I wish that were me!
[05:24] Nishimura
    B-But why?
[05:26] Takada
    I mean, being a Grim Reaper sounds awesome!
[05:28] Nishimura
    Everyone shuns you, even though
     you've done nothing wrong.
[05:31] Takada
    That's just proof of your dreadful powers!
[05:35] Nishimura
    My powers?
[05:36] Takada
    Nishimura-san, would you touch me?
[05:39] Nishimura
    Huh? Why?
[05:41] Nishimura
    Everyone will tease you about
    being cursed and stuff.
[05:44] Takada
    I want them to.
[05:46] Nishimura
    You do?!
[05:47] Nishimura
    They'll say things like
     "you're friends with the Grim Reaper!"
[05:51] Takada
    Yup! Fine by me!
[05:52] Nishimura
    I-If they think you're being nice to me,
     they might say even harsher things.
[05:57] Takada
    I want them to talk!
[06:00] Takada
    So I'd love to get closer
    to you, Nishimura-san!
[06:12] Nishimura
    I have no clue how things
    even ended up this way.
[06:18] Nishimura
    All I can say is that Takada-kun,
    the clueless transfer student,
[06:23] Nishimura
    was coming on rather strong.
[06:26] Hino
    Hey, let's go play some soccer!
[06:29] Boy A
    Yeah!
[06:30] Boy B
    Let's do it!
[06:31] Takada
    Nishimura-san!
[06:33] Takada
    Nishimura-san!
[06:36] Takada
    Wanna walk home together today?
[06:38] Nishimura
    Huh?
[06:39] Hino
    I'll fire off more of my killer shots again!
[06:48] Yanagieda
    What's this?
[06:50] Yanagieda
    The new kid is talking to the Grim Reaper!
[06:53] Kurokawa
    Yikes! He's gonna get cursed!
[07:02] Nishimura
    Sorry, I'll go home by myself.
[07:05] Takada
    What?!
[07:06] Takada
    Then... Then who am I
    supposed to walk home with?
[07:12] Nishimura
    Well, I don't know about that,
     but nevertheless...
[07:16] Nishimura
    Didn't I warn you?
[07:18] Nishimura
    If you're nice to me,
    they'll say you're cursed
[07:21] Nishimura
    or that you're pals with the Grim Reaper.
[07:24] Takada
    What?! That rules!
[07:26] Takada
    Totally cool by me!
[07:28] Takada
    I wanna hear them say
     I'm the Grim Reaper's pal!
[07:32] Nishimura
    You're an odd duck, Takada-kun.
[07:36] Takada
    You think so?
[07:36] Kitagawa
    Hey, new kid!
[07:41] Takada
    Kitagawa-kun?
[07:43] Kitagawa
    You should walk home with us
[07:45] Kitagawa
    instead of Reaper girl over there.
[07:48] Kitagawa
    I'll even let you join the Scorpion Gang!
[07:51] Takada
    What? Really?
[07:53] Takada
    Isn't that great, Nishimura-san?
[07:55] Takada
    Now the Grim Reaper has even more pals!
[07:57] Nishimura
    Huh?
[07:59] Kitagawa
    No, I meant you, Takada!
[08:01] Kitagawa
    I was only inviting you!
[08:02] Takada
    Oh, is that how it is?
[08:08] Kitagawa
    Quit yankin' my chain, new kid!
[08:11] Kitagawa
    Who'd wanna walk home with Reaper girl?
[08:14] Takada
    I wanna walk home with Nishimura-san.
[08:18] Nishimura
    U-Um...
[08:20] Nishimura
    I also think you should stay
    away from me, Takada-kun.
[08:25] Takada
    Huh? Not you, too, Nishimura-san!
[08:28] Nishimura
    I'll be fine on my own.
[08:31] Nishimura
    I'm used to it.
[08:43] Kitagawa
    See?! Look!
[08:44] Kitagawa
    She said she's fine by herself!
[08:46] Kitagawa
    Come with us, new kid!
[08:50] Takada
    But, Kitagawa-kun,
    you're just an ordinary human.
[08:54] Kitagawa
    And what's wrong with that, huh?!
[08:57] Kitagawa
    If you're gonna play that game,
    Nishimura's an ordinary human, too!
[09:01] Takada
    Huh?
[09:02] Takada
    Nishimura-san's the Grim Reaper, isn't she?
[09:08] Takada
    That's what you've been saying all this time.
[09:17] Takada
    What's wrong?
[09:25] Takada
    I see it, too!
[09:28] Takada
    Nishimura-san's just so stoic and cool!
[09:31] Takada
    That's why I want to get to know her better!
[09:39] Takada
    What's up, Nishimura-san?
[09:43] Nishimura
    What if I'm not the Grim Reaper after all?
[09:48] Nishimura
    Maybe my glare is just kind of intimidating...
[09:53] Takada
    What? You think so?
[09:55] Takada
    But I love your sharp eyes!
[09:58] Takada
    They're mega-cool!
[10:02] Takada
    I think they're really
    wonderful, Nishimura-san.
[10:08] Nishimura
    Y-Yeah... Thanks.
[10:15] Takada
    Oh.
[10:17] Takada
    Sorry, Kitagawa-kun.
    I forgot you were there.
[10:21] Kitagawa
    You've really got some nerve, you know that?!
[10:24] Yamamoto
    Give it up already, Kitagawa.
[10:26] Tanaka
    Let's just leave this weirdo alone.
[10:31] Kitagawa
    Darn it! Don't think you've
     gotten the better of me!
[10:34] Takada
    Huh? I didn't realize we were
    fighting about something.
[10:40] Takada
    Wait, why are you laughing, Nishimura-san?
[10:44] Nishimura
    W-Well, I mean...
[10:50] Takada
    Bye, Kitagawa-kun!
[10:52] Takada
    See you tomorrow!
[10:53] Kitagawa
    I've had it with you!
    How happy-go-lucky can you get?!
[11:00] Takada
    Man, this rules!
[11:01] Nishimura
    You're the coolest, Nishimura-san.
[11:04] Takada
    Let's walk home tomorrow, too, okay?
[11:06] Takada
    It's a promise!
[11:08] Nishimura
    I... I don't mind.
[11:11] Nishimura
    B-But why do we have to hold hands?
[11:14] Takada
    Because if I touch you, I can be
    bestowed with your powerful curse!
[11:20] Takada
    But I'll let go if you don't like it.
[11:23] Nishimura
    I mean... I'm okay with it...
[11:26] Takada
    I can't wait to become a sweet
    Grim Reaper like you, Nishimura-san!
[11:31] Takada
    Whoo!
[11:34] Sign
    My Clueless First Friend
[11:45] Akane's Father
    How are things at school, Akane?
[11:49] Nishimura
    Huh?
[11:50] Akane's Father
    Well, you know, like your classes.
[11:53] Akane's Father
    Are you having a hard time with anything?
[11:57] Akane
    Not really. I'm fine.
[12:01] Nishimura
    I've been lying when I'm at home...
[12:05] Nishimura
    for as long as I can remember.
[12:11] Boy 1
    Whoa, it's the Grim Reaper!
[12:13] Boy 2
    We're in danger!
[12:14] Boy 1
    Barrier! Barrier!
[12:17] Takada
    Th-That's awesome!
[12:22] Takada
    Good morning, Nishimura-san!
[12:26] Nishimura
    G-Good morning.
[12:27] Nishimura
    You're full of energy again today.
[12:29] Takada
    You think so?
[12:31] Takada
    Anyway, Nishimura-san...
[12:33] Takada
    There's something I've been
    wondering ever since I got here.
[12:39] Takada
    Can everyone in our class use barriers?
[12:44] Nishimura
    Barriers?
[12:46] Takada
    They're always shouting, "Barrier! Barrier!"
[12:50] Nishimura
    Oh.
[12:51] Nishimura
    Uh, that's... a game they like to play.
[12:55] Nishimura
    Isn't it ridiculous?
[12:56] Nishimura
    They say you can avoid my curse
     if you put up a barrier.
[13:00] Takada
    Huh? Hold it right there!
[13:02] Takada
    They're treating barriers
     like a game? That's wild!
[13:05] Nishimura
    Huh?
[13:06] Takada
    I mean, barriers are super advanced!
    At least, I think they are.
[13:10] Takada
    I've tried to use one so many times...
[13:15] Takada
    But I couldn't.
[13:16] Nishimura
    You've tried before?
[13:18] Takada
    How does everyone manage to do it?
[13:21] Nishimura
    No, c'mon now...
[13:23] Takada
    There wasn't anyone who could
     put up barriers at my old school.
[13:31] Nishimura
    I see.
[13:32] Nishimura
    It sounds like you all got along.
[13:36] Takada
    Yep! There were only thirty
     of us in the whole school.
[13:39] Takada
    And I was friends with most everyone!
[13:42] Nishimura
    Friends...
[13:44] Takada
    I really do wanna use barriers, though!
[13:47] Takada
    They're so awesome!
[13:49] Takada
    Am I supposed to imagine
    a wall in front of me?
[13:52] Takada
    Use my aura?
[13:54] Nishimura
    I hope you learn how to use barriers.
[13:56] Nishimura
    That way, we can talk
    and you won't get teased.
[13:57] Takada
    Like this?!
[14:01] Takada
    Huh? Why's that?
[14:03] Nishimura
    Because barriers ward off
     the Grim Reaper's curse.
[14:08] Takada
    But why would I put up a barrier with you?
[14:11] Nishimura
    Huh?
[14:12] Takada
    They're for when enemies attack.
[14:16] Takada
    I'd never need to use one
    against you, Nishimura-san.
[14:24] Takada
    'Cause we're friends.
[14:29] Nishimura
    F-Friends?
[14:32] (Flashback) Akane's Father
    Akane.
[14:35] (Flashback) Akane's Father
    How are things at school?
[14:39] (Flashback) Nishimura
    Like usual.
[14:41] (Flashback) Akane's Father
    I see.
[14:46] (Flashback) Akane's Father
    Have you made any good friends?
[14:51] Nishimura
    I've been lying when I'm at home...
[14:55] Nishimura
    for as long as I can remember.
[14:58] (Flashback) Akane's Father
    Akane?
[15:01] (Flashback) Nishimura
    Don't worry.
[15:02] (Flashback) Nishimura
    I've got friends.
[15:08] Nishimura
    I see...
[15:09] Nishimura
    It's not a lie anymore.
[15:12] Nishimura
    It's really true now.
[15:14] Takada
    What's the matter, Nishimura-san?
[15:17] Nishimura
    D-D-Don't misunderstand, Takada-kun!
[15:19] Nishimura
    Th-This is, um...
    I was s-so happy, I suddenly...
[15:22] Takada
    What're you talking about, Nishimura-san?
[15:25] Nishimura
    Huh?
[15:26] Takada
    I'm even way, way happier than you are!
[15:30] Nishimura
    'Cause I get to be friends with you!
[15:34] Nishimura
    Oh, my gosh...
[15:36] Nishimura
    Takada-kun is so...
[15:47] Hino
    Wow, 7.3 seconds!
[15:49] Hino
    Amazing! You're faster than me,
     the fastest kid in class!
[15:53] Takada
    Thanks, Hino-kun!
[15:55] Nishimura
    Takada-kun is incredible.
[15:58] Sasahara
    Huh...
[16:02] Hino
    That's nuts!
[16:04] Hino
    I wanna try, too!
[16:05] Takada
    Yeah!
[16:09] Kasahara
    Wh...
[16:11] Kasahara
    Wh-What's the big deal?!
[16:12] Nishimura
    Ah, s-sorry, Kasahara-san.
[16:16] Kasahara
    Hmph! Are you trying to curse me?
[16:18] Nishimura
    Um...
[16:22] Boy A
    Hey!
[16:24] Boy A
    We get to play dodgeball
    until the end of class!
[16:27] Hino
    Heck yeah!
[16:29] Hino
    Take that!
[16:30] Kitagawa
    What a wimpy throw!
[16:32] Kitagawa
    Okay! Eat this, Reaper girl!
[16:37] Takada
    I've got you, Nishimura-san!
[16:39] Takada
    This may come as a surprise,
    but I'm good at dodgeball!
[16:42] Nishimura
    Oh!
[16:43] Takada
    Huh?
[16:43] Nishimura
    Ah!
[16:45] Nishimura
    Takada-kun!
[16:50] Kasahara
    Takada-kun ended up spending the
    rest of the day in the nurse's office.
[16:54] Kurokawa
    Think it was the Grim Reaper's curse?
[16:56] Yanagieda
    You read my mind!
[16:58] Yanagieda
    Takada-kun's been hanging out
    with Nishimura-san a lot.
[17:01] Nishimura
    I hope Takada-kun is okay...
[17:04] Nishimura
    Oh...
[17:10] Sign
    Stretcher
[17:10] Nishimura
    By no means am I here
    out of personal concern for him.
[17:14] Nishimura
    I simply...
[17:18] Nishimura
    came to give him this handout.
[17:21] Hino
    What're you up to?
[17:23] Nishimura
    Hino-kun?
[17:24] Nishimura
    I-It's nothing...
[17:25] Hino
    Shucks.
[17:27] Nishimura
    Er...
[17:29] Hino
    Takada!
[17:31] Hino
    I brought your serving of custard from lunch!
[17:33] Takada
    Hino-kun!
[17:35] Hino
    Hey, you look right as rain!
[17:37] Nishimura
    He beat me to it.
[17:39] Sign
    w/ soy whipped cream
[17:39] Sign
    Custard
[17:41] Takada
    Thanks for going out of your way, Hino-kun!
[17:44] Hino
    No prob!
[17:45] Hino
    We're best buds, aren't we?
[17:46] Nishimura
    Takada-kun and Hino-kun
    are already best friends!
[17:50] Hino
    Are you hurt anywhere?
[17:52] Hino
    I can give you a piggyback
    ride home if you want!
[17:55] Takada
    I'm fine now! Check it out!
[17:57] Hino
    Whoa, amazing!
[17:59] Hino
    Yay!
[18:00] Takada
    C'mon, c'mon!
[18:01] Nishimura
    Takada-kun looks like he's having fun.
[18:04] Nishimura
    It'd be hard to butt in on them like this...
[18:07] Girl D
    Whoa, it's the Grim Reaper!
[18:09] Girl E
    Oh, no! What's she doing here?
[18:11] Girl D
    Let's get out of here!
[18:14] Nishimura
    I'll just go home.
[18:16] Nishimura
    Oh...
[18:17] Nishimura
    The handout.
[18:20] Nishimura
    But if I go in there,
    it'll just start more rumors.
[18:25] Crowd 1
    See you!
[18:26] Crowd 2
    Bye-bye!
[18:26] Crowd 3
    I'm off!
[18:29] Nishimura
    Huh... I didn't talk much to anyone today.
[18:35] Nishimura
    It feels kind of weird.
[18:38] Nishimura
    Yet it was normal up until just recently.
[18:47] Nishimura
    This is how I used to be...
[18:59] Takada
    Wh-Why didn't you come visit me,
     Nishimura-san?!
[19:03] Takada
    I was waiting this whole time!
[19:05] Nishimura
    What?!
[19:06] Takada
    Hino-kun told me as he was leaving
    that you were waiting out in the hall!
[19:11] Takada
    I was so excited!
[19:13] Nishimura
    H...
[19:14] Nishimura
    Hino-kun!
[19:16] Nishimura
    D-Don't get the wrong idea.
[19:18] Nishimura
    I'm just here to give you this handout.
[19:22] Takada
    Huh? That's all?
[19:25] Takada
    I...
[19:27] Takada
    wanted to brag about my sweet third eye!
[19:30] Nishimura
    That's just where you got hit, isn't it?
[19:33] Nishimura
    Takada-kun, are you okay?
[19:36] Takada
    It really wasn't a big deal!
[19:38] Takada
    I took a nap 'cause I was sleepy,
    and class was over before I knew it.
[19:43] Takada
    Oh, you'll never believe the nurse's office!
[19:46] Nishimura
    Huh?
[19:47] Takada
    They've got a water cooler in there!
[19:49] Takada
    Hey, let's get a drink and chat!
[19:52] Nishimura
    But...
[19:53] Nishimura
    if you're alone with me,
    people will make up rumors about us.
[19:57] Takada
    What kind of rumors?
[19:59] Nishimura
    W-W... Well...
[20:02] Nishimura
    L-Like "He's really been drawn in
     by the Grim Reaper's curse!"
[20:06] Nishimura
    B-Bad stuff like that.
[20:10] Takada
    Oh.
[20:12] Takada
    I don't mind if they start rumors about us.
[20:15] Takada
    What about you?
[20:17] Nishimura
    I... I... I...
[20:22] Nishimura
    I don't... mind either...
[20:27] Takada
    Well? Isn't this water cooler water tasty?
[20:30] Takada
    It's nothing like tap water!
[20:32] Nishimura
    Yeah.
[20:36] Nishimura
    It really is different.
[20:40] Takada
    I'm so glad you came to see me.
[20:43] Takada
    We didn't get to talk much today.
[20:46] Nishimura
    Huh?
[20:47] Takada
    I'm glad we got to make up
     for it before going home.
[20:51] Takada
    Talking with you is always
    so much fun, Nishimura-san!
[20:54] Takada
    It's really the best!
[20:57] Nishimura
    I also enjoy talking with you...
[21:03] Takada
    R-Really?!
[21:05] Takada
    Woo-hoo!
[21:08] Nishimura
    Being called the Grim Reaper...
[21:10] Nishimura
    Weird rumors spreading about me...
[21:13] Nishimura
    Right now, I don't care about any of that.

    Takada & Nishimura
[22:53] Takada
    What is this?
[22:55] Nishimura
    Oh, I'm sorry about that...
[22:57] Nishimura
    I'm sure they were trying to tease me,
[23:01] Nishimura
    but you got dragged into
     this too because of me...
[23:04] Girl F
    Do you think they're really going out?
[23:06] Takada
    Woo-hoo!
[23:08] Takada
    Woo-hoo! Woo-hoo!
[23:10] Takada
    Whoo! This rules!
[23:12] Nishimura
    Wh-Why are you so happy?
[23:15] Takada
    What?
[23:16] Takada
    Seriously?! You don't think
    that's just the coolest?!
[23:18] Sign
    Mr. & Mrs.
     Grim Reaper
[23:18] Takada
    We're the Grim Reapers!
[23:20] Takada
    This means everyone's
    finally accepted me as one!
[23:26] Nishimura
    Yeah, I don't think that's
     what's going on here...
[23:30] Takada
    Huh?
[23:30] Sign
    Grim Reaper
[23:31] Takada
    It's not?!
