[00:15] Nishimura
    After seeing what we did at the park...
[00:18] Nishimura
    for some reason, Takada-kun and I
    couldn't talk to each other like normal.

[00:31] Hino
    Yay!
[00:36] Group
    Merry Christmas!
[00:37] Hino
    Yay!
[00:39] Group
    Merry Christmas...
[00:41] Kasahara
    How gloomy!
[00:42] Hino
    Ooh, meat!
[00:45] Adachi
    It looks great!
[00:47] Hino
    Good chicken...
[00:48] Kasahara
    H-Hey, Adachi-san.
[00:50] Kasahara
    Those two have been acting like
    this ever since they got back.
[00:54] Kasahara
    Isn't something weird here?
[00:56] Adachi
    Y-Yeah.
[00:58] Adachi
    They seemed normal when we called
    while they were out shopping, though.
[01:05] Kasahara
    Seriously, what's gotten into them?
[01:08] Kasahara
    Just when I've graced
    them with my presence...

[01:11] Adachi
    This bizarre atmosphere...
[01:13] Adachi
    How can we fix it?
[01:16] Hino
    Hey, everyone, don't you think it's
    about time for you-know-what?
[01:20] Adachi
    "You-know-what"?
[01:21] Hino
    The gift exchange!
[01:27] Group
    That's it!
[01:29] Hino
    Th-That's what?
[01:32] Adachi
    Good job, Dai-chan!
    Totally ignoring the mood!

[03:01] Sign

[03:07] Sign
    Episode 12 "The Christmas Party Confession"
[03:13] Group
    Ready, and...
[03:17] Hino
    Yay!
[03:21] Adachi
    All right, Takada-kun, you can pick
    whichever present you want first.
[03:25] Takada
    Okay!
[03:26] Takada
    Let me see...
[03:29] Takada
    I pick this one!
[03:31] Hino
    You're fine with that tiny present?
[03:34] Takada
    In video games, the smaller ones have
    a better chance of being rare items!
[03:40] Takada
    Ta-da!
[03:41] Takada
    L-Lipstick?
[03:45] Kasahara
    That one was mine.
[03:46] Kasahara
    It's lip balm!
[03:48] Takada
    Huh, so it's lip balm...
[03:51] Kasahara
    The air gets so dry in the winter.
[03:54] Kasahara
    You don't seem like the type
    to care about your lips,
[03:58] Kasahara
    but boys should take good care of them, too!
[04:08] Takada
    Hey, even I care about my lips...
[04:14] Hino
    I'll pick this. Huh, it's making a sound.
[04:15] Adachi
    I think I'll take this one.
[04:16] Nishimura
    Looks like Takada-kun's still thinking
    about seeing Kasumi-oneesan kissing...

[04:23] Adachi
    Ah, these stick-on mustaches
    must be from Takada-kun!
[04:25] Sign
    Stick-on Mustaches
[04:26] Takada
    Oh, yeah! That's right!
[04:29] Adachi
    I figured.
[04:31] Adachi
    Why don't I try one on right now, then?
[04:34] Adachi
    Ehem!
[04:36] Hino
    Whoa! It's nighttime all of a sudden!
[04:41] Hino
    What do you think?
[04:42] Takada
    You look so awesome, Hino-kun!
[04:44] Adachi
    Th-That was mine...
[04:47] Adachi
    Th-They look great on you, Dai-chan!
[04:50] Hino
    They're perfect with my tank top!
[04:53] Hino
    Thanks, Umi!
[04:54] Adachi
    S-Sure!
[04:56] Nishimura
    Good for you, Umi-chan.
[05:02] Nishimura
    Oh, th-that one was from me.
[05:06] Kasahara
    I thought it might be.
[05:08] Kasahara
    You seem surprisingly
    discerning about clothes.
[05:12] Nishimura
    O-Oh, no, you must be imagining it.
[05:15] Nishimura
    It's just a discount scarf
    I could afford on my allowance.
[05:19] Kasahara
    Hmm.
[05:20] Kasahara
    Well, you've got a decent eye for fashion.
[05:24] Kasahara
    Thanks.
[05:33] Nishimura
    I-I should thank you, as well.
[05:37] Nishimura
    For everything during field day...
[05:40] Kasahara
    Well, yeah!
[05:46] Nishimura
    Kasahara-san?!
[05:49] Kasahara
    Getting called "Kasahara the Swift" was
    really embarrassing, for the record!
[05:55] Kasahara
    You'll be making up for that today!
[05:58] Nishimura
    M-Making up for it?
[06:01] Nishimura
    This is juice, right?
[06:05] Kasahara
    It turned into a huge deal.
[06:07] Kasahara
    The girls in the grades below
    us even started a fan club!
[06:12] Nishimura
    Unbelievable.
[06:14] Kasahara
    You're the unbelievable one!
[06:16] Kasahara
    I can't believe you invited
    me to this party.
[06:20] Kasahara
    Wait, you're not playing dumb?
[06:24] Kasahara
    I think Takada-kun's slowly
    rubbing off on you.
[06:27] Nishimura
    Huh? Th-That can't be!
[06:29] Kasahara
    Wait, that's the part you blush over?
[06:31] Kasahara
    Something really did happen
    with you two earlier!
[06:35] Nishimura
    H-Huh? L-L-Like what...?
[06:38] Kasahara
    I mean, Takada-kun's been acting weird, too!
[06:39] Hino
    Try these on too, Takada!
[06:40] Kasahara
    You two haven't talked since you got back.
    You won't even look at each other.
[06:41] Takada
    Wh-Wh-What?
[06:45] Kasahara
    You two are never like that!
[06:53] Nishimura
    Takada-kun...
[06:55] Kasahara
    See? Something's totally up!
[06:57] Kasahara
    Seriously, what's your deal?!
[06:59] Adachi
    Come now, Kasahara-san!
[07:14] Nishimura
    Are you okay?
[07:17] Takada
    Nishimura-san?
[07:19] Nishimura
    You've been acting strange ever
    since we were out shopping.
[07:25] Takada
    You could tell?
[07:27] Nishimura
    Yeah, pretty much.
[07:31] Takada
    You know, Nishimura-san...
[07:34] Takada
    I like you.
[07:41] Takada
    I'm not sure how it's different
    from the way I like Hino-kun,
[07:46] Takada
    Adachi-san, Kasahara-san, or the others...
[07:53] Takada
    But I can tell it's not really the same thing.
[07:59] Takada
    Can I... Right now, can I...
[08:03] Takada
    Can I kiss you, Nishimura-san?
[08:33] Nishimura
    Y-You can't do that, Takada-kun!
[08:37] Nishimura
    You can't...
[08:40] Nishimura
    The person you k-kiss someday...
[08:45] Nishimura
    It might be me...
[08:47] Nishimura
    It might be someone else.
[08:50] Nishimura
    But... no matter who it is...
[08:53] Nishimura
    I think it should be someone you
    really want to kiss deep down inside.
[09:02] Takada
    But you're the one I really
    want to kiss deep down inside.
[09:26] Kasahara
    Hey now!
[09:28] Kasahara
    Don't run off to have
    private conversations like that!
[09:33] Kasahara
    Something's fishy...
[09:35] Adachi
    K-Kasahara-san!
[09:36] Kasahara
    Takada-kun!
[09:38] Kasahara
    Get in here and have a drink with me!
[09:40] Kasahara
    Yay!
[09:41] Takada
    Y-Yeah!
[09:42] Takada
    I'll be right there!
[09:44] Kasahara
    You'd better!
[09:45] Kasahara
    It had better be this instant!
[09:47] Adachi
    Okay, that's enough.
[09:49] Adachi
    Hey, you've been drinking too much!
[09:50] Nishimura
    That... really is just juice, right?
[09:51] Kasahara
    Adachi-san, you haven't
    been drinking at all!
[09:53] Kasahara
    C'mon, drink up!
[09:53] Takada
    Yeah. I think, anyway.
[09:57] Takada
    Let's go back inside!
[09:58] Nishimura
    S-Sure.
[10:00] Takada
    We can talk about this again
    some other time, Nishimura-san.
[10:07] Hino
    Takada! Yay!
[10:07] Takada
    I want some sparkling cider, too!
[10:08] Nishimura
    Takada-kun doesn't know what's different
    about how he likes me versus everyone else.

[10:14] Takada
    Can I kiss you, Nishimura-san?
[10:21] Nishimura
    So that might have just been him
    coming on strong like usual.

[10:27] Nishimura
    It has to be.
[10:29] Nishimura
    After all, if it wasn't...
[10:34] Nishimura
    My racing heart might make me lose all reason.
[10:41] Adachi
    Akane-chan, what was in the gift you got?
[10:45] Nishimura
    Um... good question.
[10:53] Nishimura
    A t-tank top...
[10:57] Adachi
    Oh, that's so nice!
[10:59] Takada
    How cool!
[11:01] Nishimura
    Y-Yeah...
[11:06] Adachi
    I would have loved to get
    a present from Dai-chan!
[11:10] Adachi
    J-Just kidding!
[11:14] Adachi
    A-Ah, I'm not saying I didn't
    like your mustaches!
[11:19] Takada
    I should have gotten some
    cooler-looking mustaches!
[11:23] Kasahara
    H-Hey, Nishimura-san.
[11:25] Kasahara
    It surprised me, but is
    Adachi-san into... well, that?
[11:30] Nishimura
    Huh? "That"?
[11:32] Nishimura
    I don't think it's much of a surprise...
[11:34] Kasahara
    What?! It totally is!
    It's completely left field!
[11:38] Takada
    Hey, Nishimura-san, try it on!
[11:40] Takada
    I'm sure you'll look super cool!
[11:42] Nishimura
    Huh? I-I don't know about that...
[11:46] Sign
    My Clueless First Friend
[11:47] Kasahara
    So you're into the sporty look, huh?
[11:56] Sign
    Yukiko-san
[11:56] Sign
    I'm on my way now with Mom and Taiyou! Just sit tight!
[11:56] Yukiko
    I'm on my way now with Mom*
    and Taiyou! Just sit tight!
[12:05] Nishimura
    I think it should be someone you
    really want to kiss deep down inside.
[12:14] Takada
    But you're the one I really
    want to kiss deep down inside.
[12:22] Nishimura
    How am I supposed to face Takada-kun
    after he told me that?

[12:28] Akane's Father
    What's wrong, Akane?
[12:31] Nishimura
    N-Nothing at all!
[12:33] Akane's Father
    Do you have everything ready?
[12:35] Akane's Father
    Make sure you dress nice and warm.
[12:39] Nishimura
    Y-Yeah.
[12:43] Takada
    Happy New Year, Nishimura-san!
[12:46] Takada
    Let's make it a good one!
[12:49] Nishimura
    H-He's his usual self.
[12:52] Taiyou's Mother
    What's the matter, Akane-chan?
[12:54] Nishimura
    I-It's nothing.
[12:56] Nishimura
    A happy New Year to you all.
[12:58] Group
    You, too!
[13:00] Sign
    Nishimura
[13:00] Takada
    Whoa, kadomatsu! Amazing!
[13:04] Nishimura
    So that was just Takada-kun being
    his usual outgoing self back then...

[13:10] Nishimura
    I feel so embarrassed for letting
    it get to me like that!

[13:15] Takada
    Okay, let's go, Nishimura-san!
[13:18] Takada
    New Year's shrine visit time!
[13:21] Akane's Father
    Please keep an eye on her.
[13:23] Taiyou's Mother
    Sure! You can leave her to us.
[13:26] Nishimura
    I-I can't help but feel self-conscious!
[13:33] Nishimura
    Wow, it sure is busy.
[13:36] Takada
    Is it always this packed here?
[13:39] Nishimura
    I'm not sure.
[13:40] Nishimura
    When I visit shrines on New Year's with Dad,
    it's after the crowds have thinned out.
[13:49] Nishimura
    Oh, Umi-chan says they'll be here soon.
[13:53] Taiyou's Mother
    Phew, it's freezing!
[13:55] Taiyou's Mother
    I could go for some sweet sake!
[13:58] Takada
    Sweet sake!
[14:00] Takada
    Ooh, ooh, I want sweet sake, too!
[14:03] Takada
    The kind for kids!
[14:05] Takada
    I want some! I want some!
[14:07] Takada
    Sweet sake!
[14:08] Taiyou's Mother
    I'm with you, Taiyou! Let's go right now!
[14:12] Yukiko
    Wait, Mom!
[14:14] Yukiko
    You sure you don't want to get
    the shrine stuff done first?
[14:16] Taiyou's Mother
    Huh? But I want sweet sake now!
[14:19] Takada
    Yeah, yeah!
[14:20] Yukiko
    That's not fair.
[14:21] Group
    Yeah! Yeah!
[14:22] Yukiko
    Why do I have to be the voice of reason?
[14:25] Yukiko
    Do you want some sweet sake, as well?
[14:28] Nishimura
    Huh? I...
[14:30] Nishimura
    I-I want some, too.
[14:32] Yukiko
    Then for me...
[14:36] Yukiko
    I want red bean soup with mochi!
[14:38] Takada
    Onee-chan, you're so awesome!
[14:40] Taiyou's Mother
    Well then, I'll go buy some!
    You kids stay here.
[14:45] Yukiko
    Yukiko, you keep watch!
[14:47] Group
    Off you go!
[14:49] Taiyou's Mother
    Sweet, sweet... Sake, sake... Sweet sake...
[14:50] Takada
    I can't wait, Nishimura-san!
[14:52] Nishimura
    Yeah...
[14:55] Takada
    Hmm? What is it?
[14:57] Nishimura
    Oh, it's nothing.
[15:01] Nishimura
    He really is acting completely normal.
[15:03] Nishimura
    I'm not sure why,
    but it's comforting in a way.

[15:07] Nishimura
    Ah, I-I'm sorry.
[15:09] Nishimura
    I was just thinking about
     how excited you seem.
[15:12] Takada
    Are you not excited, Nishimura-san?
[15:14] Nishimura
    Th-That's not what I meant!
[15:16] Nishimura
    I'm excited, as well!
[15:18] Nishimura
    I've never been out with friends this late,
[15:22] Nishimura
    so it's all very thrilling!
[15:24] Yukiko
    You're right.
[15:26] Yukiko
    It's not every day you get to be
    out with friends at this hour.
[15:30] Takada
    Oh, yeah! It's my first time, too.
[15:32] Takada
    All thanks to you, Nishimura-san!
[15:34] Nishimura
    Huh?
[15:37] Takada
    Thanks as always, Nishimura-san.
[15:39] Nishimura
    Y-You've got it backwards, Takada-kun.
[15:42] Takada
    Huh?
[15:43] Nishimura
    This past year has been full
    of precious memories for me.
[15:49] Nishimura
    I couldn't have dreamed of this a year ago.
[15:54] Nishimura
    I was so happy to have a friend
    ask me to walk home together.
[15:59] Nishimura
    Seeing a friend cry in front of me,
    which was sadder than crying myself...
[16:05] Nishimura
    Sharing lunch boxes with friends
    for the very first time...
[16:10] Kasahara
    Giving it my very best
    on field day like never before...
[16:14] Nishimura
    Celebrating Christmas with a group
    of friends for the first time...
[16:19] Nishimura
    All of these firsts were moments
     I shared with you.
[16:25] Nishimura
    They were all thanks to you, Takada-kun!
[16:33] Takada
    Really?
[16:34] Takada
    Hearing that makes me happy!
[16:37] Nishimura
    It's a little embarrassing to say out loud...
[16:39] Takada
    Huh? You think so?
[16:42] Takada
    I don't really get it.
[16:46] Takada
    There's lots of things I don't get.
[16:54] Takada
    Did you know?
[16:56] Takada
    If you tell someone what you wish for
    at your New Year's shrine visit,
[17:00] Takada
    then it won't come true.
[17:02] Takada
    So I hear you're not supposed to ask
    other people about their wishes.
[17:07] Takada
    But I get the feeling that we'll
    both be wishing for the same thing.
[17:13] Takada
    Since I'm sure that we
    both share the same love!
[17:18] Nishimura
    Me, too...
[17:19] Nishimura
    I think it'd be nice if we wished
    for the same thing, too.
[17:26] Taiyou's Mother
    Hey, hey, hey!
[17:28] Taiyou's Mother
    Drinks are here!
[17:30] Taiyou's Mother
    Wait, why's your nose bleeding?
[17:33] Yukiko
    Man, what a treat!
[17:38] Hino
    Takada! Nishimura!
[17:44] Hino
    HNY!
[17:46] Adachi
    Happy New Year!
[17:48] Group
    Happy New Year to you, too!
[17:53] Nishimura
    I wish I can enjoy another year of
    having lots of fun with everyone.

[18:04] Takada
    Nishimura-san, what did you wish for?
[18:06] Nishimura
    N-No, Takada-kun!
[18:09] Nishimura
    You're asking already?
[18:11] Takada
    Oh, yeah, I forgot!
[18:14] Nishimura
    I think this is the right answer for now,
[18:18] Nishimura
    although I can't ask and know for sure.
[18:23] Takada
    My parents got me a phone!
[18:25] Takada
    Let me get your contact info, Nishimura-san!
[18:30] Taiyou's Mother
    Purely for safety reasons!
[18:32] Taiyou's Mother
    It's set up so you can't play games on it.
[18:35] Takada
    Okay, I get it!
[18:38] Takada
    I'll make sure to send you lots of messages!
[18:42] Takada
    Now we can talk even more about stuff!
[18:47] Nishimura
    He seems happy.
[18:49] Nishimura
    Sounds like we wished for
    the same thing... right?

[18:55] Nishimura
    This must be more of Takada-kun's
    usual forward self.

[19:00] Nishimura
    I'd love to talk more with you, as well.
[19:04] Takada
    Then let's share contact info!
[19:07] Nishimura
    Sure.
[19:08] Nishimura
    I get self-conscious when he's so forward...
[19:12] Nishimura
    but it makes me happy.

[19:30] Girl C
    Hey, hey! Did you hear we're changing seats?
[19:32] Girl D
    Yeah, I totally did!
[19:34] Girl E
    A boy and a girl who end up next to each
    other twice in a row are fated to fall in love!
[19:40] Kitagawa
    Ugh, I'm next to the Grim Reaper?
[19:43] Kitagawa
    This sucks! I'm gonna end up cursed!
[19:47] Nishimura
    This time, I'm not next to Takada-kun.
[19:50] Adachi
    Sensei!
[19:52] Adachi
    I can't see the blackboard, so can I switch
    seats with the person in front of me?
[19:57] Kurashiki
    Yeah, go ahead.
[20:00] Adachi
    Hey, Akane-chan, are you okay with that?
[20:03] Nishimura
    Huh? Yeah, of course.
[20:06] Takada
    What?!
[20:08] Takada
    Nishimura-san, you're next to me?!
[20:11] Takada
    Aw yeah!
[20:12] Kitagawa
    Don't sound so happy about it, Takada!
[20:15] Kitagawa
    How many times are you two
    gonna sit next to each other?!
[20:19] Nishimura
    This makes twice...
[20:21] Nishimura
    We're neighbors twice in a row.
[20:23] Hino
    You two ended up together again?
[20:25] Takada
    Yeah!

    I'm sure Takada-kun doesn't
    think anything of it.

[20:30] Takada
    This is the second time
    in a row, Nishimura-san!
[20:34] Nishimura
    Yeah, it is.
[20:37] Nishimura
    What did he mean by that?
[22:17] Takada
    Oh.
[22:21] Takada
    You dropped your eraser.
[22:24] Takada
    Here, Nishimura-san.
[22:26] Nishimura
    Th-Thanks.
[22:33] Nishimura
    Wh-What's the matter?
[22:36] Takada
    Can we stay like this for a bit longer?
[22:39] Nishimura
    Huh? Wh-Why?
[22:42] Takada
    I want lots of your curse's power!
[22:48] Nishimura
    S-Sure.
[22:51] Nishimura
    If someone were to see us now...
[22:54] Nishimura
    I'm sure they would tease us again.
[22:58] Nishimura
    But I bet Takada-kun...
[23:02] Nishimura
    wouldn't let it get to him at all.
[23:06] Nishimura
    He's so cool...
[23:10] Nishimura
    I wish I could be like you, Takada-kun.
[23:15] Nishimura
    Huh? What's wrong?
[23:18] Takada
    Well, I... felt something just now.
[23:24] Takada
    Is this your curse power?
[23:29] Nishimura
    Beats me.
