My Stepmom's Daughter Is My Ex
A boy and a girl started dating in middle school. They were lovey-dovey at first, but due to a misunderstanding over something trivial, they started feeling more frustration than excitement... In the end, they broke up when they graduated. However, Mizuto Irido and Yume Ayai meet again in a surprising way before they start high school. "Obviously I'm the older brother here." "Obviously I'm the older sister here." The child of their parent's new spouse is the ex they just broke up with?! Out of consideration for their parents, this former couple comes up with a "sibling rule," which is: "Whoever starts seeing the other as potentially attractive loses." But they sometimes run into each other right after a bath. They're also alone on their way to and from school, so... Because of the memories they share and because of this situation where they live under the same roof, how can they help but pay attention to each other?!

[00:06] Yume
Where are you going, Mizuto-kun?
[00:08] Mizuto
Right back at you. Where are
you going, Yume-san?
[00:12] Yuni
Oh? I thought you two were headed out.
[00:16] Mizuto
We were just about to leave.
[00:20] Yuni
For that bookstore
on Karasuma Street, by chance?
[00:22] Yuni
A little bird told me you like to read!
[00:25] Yuni
So you two must be headed to the same place.
[00:28] Yuni
Yume only ever goes to the
bookstore or the library, after all.
[00:31] Yume
M-Mom, please!
[00:35] Yuni
I trust you'll take care of her, Mizuto-kun.
[00:38] Mizuto
S-Sure thing...
[00:40] Yuni
All righty then. You two get along, okay?
[00:43] Yume
Take care!
[00:48] Yume
Why did you say yes?
[00:50] Mizuto
You heard her.
She didn't give me much choice.
[00:53] Yume
Why should I have to tag along
with someone like you?
[00:58] Mizuto
Whatever. I don't want you
tagging along, either.
[01:03] Yume
I always hated how passive you are.
[01:06] Yume
Stupid geek!
[01:08] Mizuto
And I always hated how selfish you are.
[01:11] Mizuto
Stupid nerd!
SIGN Irido
[01:20] Mineaki
That curry was so good!
SIGN The Former Couple Refuses to Say...
SIGN "It's things like this...!"
[01:23] Yuni
I'm glad you liked it.
[01:26] Mizuto
Thanks for the meal.
[01:28] Yuni
Of course!
[01:33] Yume
Thanks for the meal.
[01:39] Mineaki
I'm so glad they seem to be getting along.
[01:43] Yuni
You're telling me.
[01:44] Mineaki
To suddenly get a housemate
of the opposite sex at that age...
[01:47] Mineaki
I guess that sort of thing
doesn't matter much nowadays.
[01:52] Mineaki
Well, looks like I was worried over nothing!
[01:55] Yuni
Families come in all shapes
and sizes these days.
[01:58] Yuni
Just because they're stepsiblings
doesn't mean they can't get along.
[02:02] Yuni
Here you go, dear.
[02:04] Yume
You get it, don't you?
[02:04] Mineaki
Why thank you, Yuni-san.
[02:05] Mizuto
Get what?
[02:06] Yume
We mustn't do anything to upset them.
[02:10] Mizuto
I know that.
[02:12] Mizuto
I'll take what happened
between us to my grave.
[02:15] Yume
Excellent.
[02:18] Mizuto
Look who's all high and mighty.
[02:21] Mizuto
Since when were you this bossy?
[02:23] Yume
If I wasn't like this before,
[02:25] Yume
then it's certainly your fault
that I'm like this now.
[02:28] Mizuto
Huh?
[02:29] Yume
Got a problem?
[02:31] Yuni
Apparently their daughter's
gonna start living on her own.
[02:33] Mineaki
Yeah?
[02:34] Yuni
Yeah, and I heard...
SIGN Beyond All Limits
[02:53] Yume
I've completely reached my limit.
SIGN Something's Wrong...
[02:55] Mizuto
Is something wrong?
[02:57] Yume
How much longer do you plan on calling
me by my given name like it's nothing?
[03:04] Mizuto
You're using my given name too.
[03:08] Yume
That's better than you using mine.
[03:11] Mizuto
Not much we can do now
that we share a family name.
[03:14] Mizuto
What would you suggest I call you?
[03:16] Yume
That's obvious, isn't it? It's perfect.
[03:19] Mizuto
What is?
[03:21] Yume
"Onee-chan."
[03:24] Mizuto
Huh?
[03:25] Yume
We're siblings now, so addressing me
as your older sister makes perfect sense, no?
[03:31] Mizuto
Hold it, hold it, hold it.
[03:33] Mizuto
You're the older sibling?
[03:37] Mizuto
Gimme a break. It's the other way around.
[03:39] Mizuto
I'm the older sibling here.
[03:43] Yume
Let me put this simply, since your
brain cells seem to be off duty right now.
[03:47] Yume
Listen well.
[03:49] Yume
Our society considers the
firstborn child to be the eldest.
[03:55] Yume
That's premise number one.
[03:57] Yume
I was born before you.
That's premise number two.
[04:03] Yume
Therefore, I am the older sibling.
[04:05] Yume
It's the logical conclusion. You follow?
[04:07] Mizuto
But if memory serves, weren't we
both born on November 3rd?
[04:14] Mizuto
So we're the same age, correct?
[04:17] Mizuto
By the day, perhaps,
but that's not everything.
[04:20] Mizuto
You must also consider the time of birth.
[04:23] Mizuto
Time of birth?
[04:24] Yume
I asked Mineaki-san in order
to settle the matter.
[04:29] Yume
I was born at 11:04 AM,
[04:33] Yume
while you were born at 11:34 AM.
[04:39] Yume
In other words, I was born
thirty minutes earlier.
[04:43] Yume
You with me?
[04:45] Mizuto
Didn't Japan used to consider the firstborn
twin to be younger in ancient times?
[04:53] Yume
But we're not twins.
[04:55] Mizuto
We're not even siblings in the first place.
[04:59] Yume
Hey, wait a second...
[05:01] Yume
We consider the firstborn
to be the eldest now anyway.
[05:06] Mizuto
Just go along with it, would you?
[05:08] Yume
Thought you could fool me?
[05:10] Mizuto
Whatever. I'm the older sibling. QED.
[05:13] Mizuto
Case dismissed.
[05:15] Yume
I'm going to be the older sibling.
[05:17] Yume
The thought of being your
little sister creeps me out!
[05:19] Mizuto
Same here!
[05:21] Mizuto
I'd take anything over
being your little brother!
[05:31] Mizuto
Wait, hang on.
[05:32] Yume
What?
[05:33] Mizuto
Glaring at each other won't get us anywhere.
[05:36] Mizuto
At times like this, any reasonable person
would settle things with a game.
[05:41] Yume
Irritating choice of words, but you're right.
[05:46] Yume
In that case...
[05:48] Yume
How about this?
[05:50] Yume
We've both accepted the fact that
[05:52] Yume
we'll have to hide our previous relationship
[05:54] Yume
and act like any normal stepsiblings would.
[05:58] Yume
We've both been doing well so far,
[06:01] Yume
but either one of us may yet slip up
[06:04] Yume
and do something out of line, no?
[06:06] Yume
So whoever screws up first loses.
[06:09] Mizuto
So whoever first acts in a manner
unnatural for a stepsibling
SIGN Little Brother
[06:12] Mizuto
becomes the younger brother or sister?
SIGN Little Sister
SIGN Little Brother
SIGN Little Sister
[06:17] Mizuto
The sense of competition
engendered by such a rule
[06:19] Mizuto
should also help inspire us
to better hide our past.
[06:22] Mizuto
So do these rules apply even
when our parents aren't around?
[06:27] Yume
Of course.
[06:29] Yume
Also, that's per slip-up.
[06:33] Yume
The winner gets to decide how the
younger shows it every time.
[06:39] Mizuto
I guess there'd be no point
if it was sudden death.
[06:42] Mizuto
Okay, let's go with that.
[06:44] Yume
Then...
[06:47] Yume
The game starts now.
[06:52] Mizuto
Wai—What are you doing?!
[06:54] Yume
Oh, what's wrong?
Isn't this normal sibling behavior?
[07:01] Mizuto
I get it now...
[07:05] Yume
It seems he's finally realized the true
nature of the rules I laid out..
[07:10] Mizuto
Even if it's an obvious provocation,
[07:11] Mizuto
I'm not allowed to show
irritation over any action
[07:15] Mizuto
that would be considered
normal among siblings.
[07:19] Mizuto
Such a reaction would fall into the
category of "unnatural for a stepsibling."
[07:23] Mizuto
In other words...
[07:24] Mizuto
This was just a ploy to get under my skin!
[07:28] Mizuto
Stupid girl... She proposed
those rules just for that?!
[07:33] Mizuto
She's twisted!
[07:36] Mizuto
This is bad.
[07:38] Mizuto
My own personal Pandora's box is right there!
[07:42] Mizuto
That drawer contains things
I can't let anyone see!
[07:51] Mizuto
What do I do? What do I do?
What do I do? What do I do?!
[07:58] Mizuto
Forgive me...
[08:01] Mizuto
I can't bear to fight with you any longer.
[08:06] Mizuto
If I've upset you, I apologize.
[08:08] Mizuto
I'll even get out of your sight.
[08:12] Mizuto
So please...
[08:13] Mizuto
Can we put this behind us?
[08:23] Yume
Irido-kun...
[08:28] Mizuto
Yup, you're out!
[08:30] Mizuto
Siblings don't call each
other by their last names.
[08:36] Yume
B-But you're out too, aren't you?
[08:39] Mizuto
Wanting to bury the hatchet is completely
normal for siblings, don't you think?
[08:47] Mizuto
Now then, since this is the first round,
let's keep it simple.
[08:51] Mizuto
Just say it.
[08:53] Yume
H-How should I say it?
[08:56] Mizuto
However you'd like.
[09:09] Yume
O-Onii-chan...
[09:19] Mizuto
Well, you've learned your lesson.
[09:20] Mizuto
Now you know not to mess with me.
[09:24] Mizuto
You may fancy yourself a
hardcore mystery fan,
[09:28] Mizuto
but you and I simply aren't
on the same level up here.
[09:32] Yume
You never...
[09:34] Yume
used to be this mean to me back then!
[09:40] Mizuto
There, there.
[09:42] Mizuto
You're right. I'm sorry.
[09:45] Mizuto
Onee...
[09:48] Mizuto
Nee-san.
[09:50] Yume
Th-This is the part of you I...
[09:53] Yume
I always hated how you flip-flop like that!

Why are people flocking to me now?
[12:35] Boy A
Um...
[12:37] Boy A
So anyway...
[12:39] Boy A
Is it true you and Irido-san are stepsiblings?
[12:47] Mizuto
They really caught me off guard with that.
[12:50] Mizuto
But that girl...
[12:52] Mizuto
Did she really tell everyone
we're stepsiblings?

I'd go to the optometrist and get

[13:10] Boy A
It was love at first sight.
[13:12] Boy B
So your plan is to get close
with the younger brother, right?
[13:15] Boy A
If I went to her directly,
she'd just shoot me down.
[13:15] Mizuto
So she told people I'm younger, huh?
That girl...
[13:20] Boy A
It'll be smooth sailing if I can get
to her through him, y'know?
[13:23] Boy A
But her brother was such a killjoy.

Maybe he just thought
you were annoying?
[13:29] Boy A

from when I hugged you...
[16:48] Yume
You should wipe it from your memory!
[16:50] Mizuto
Huh?

Oh, yeah, I'd already forgotten about that.

I see!

[17:53] Yume
I'm in my own home, you know?
It's not that big of a deal.
[17:57] Mizuto
No, but... I'm here, so...
[18:02] Yume
Oh?
[18:03] Yume
So what if my brother's here?
[18:06] Yume
Or, don't tell me...
[18:07] Yume
Mizuto-kun, are you the kind of bad boy
who'd sneak a peek at his stepsister
[18:12] ---
with lusty eyes?
[18:20] Yume
He's getting redder by the second.
[18:23] Yume
He turned away, but I can tell he's looking.
[18:28] Yume
Guess I'll switch legs.
[18:33] Yume
Ha, he looked! He definitely
looked! So easy to read.
[18:38] Yume
To think the guy who's always
acting so cool-headed
[18:41] ---
would lose his composure like this.
[18:50] Yume
O-Oh no! It's gonna... It's...
[18:54] ---
H-He's gonna see!

Huh, wait.

trying to seduce him, doesn't it?!

If you act like that at school,
[19:54] Mizuto
you're gonna lose the reputation
you've made for yourself.
[19:57] Yume
But... you're family now.
[20:03] Yume
I can't stand people looking
down on my family like that!
[20:13] Mizuto
Thanks. I appreciate it.
[20:17] Mizuto
Don't you have something to say?
[20:19] Mizuto
I genuinely thanked you, didn't I?
[20:22] Yume
D-Don't mention it!

losing today.
[21:18] Yuni
Mineaki-san, I'll hold the door,
so would you be a dear and bring that in?
[21:18] Yume
Wh-What do we do?!
[21:19] Mizuto
Just hide!
[21:20] Yume
Hide? But where?!
[21:21] Mineaki
Oh, sure!
[21:22] Mizuto
Uh...
[21:23] Mineaki
Is it all right if I leave
everything in the corridor here?
[21:26] Yuni
Yeah.
[21:27] Mizuto
Here!
[21:28] Yume
Huh?!
[21:29] Mineaki & Yuni
We're home!
[21:31] Mineaki
Oh? You alone, Mizuto?
[21:33] Mizuto
Welcome home, Dad, Yuni-san.
[21:36] Mizuto
Yume-san went to bed already.
[21:38] Mineaki
Oh, okay.
[21:39] Yuni
Really? Aw, I brought back gifts.
[21:41] Yume
Just now, if our parents hadn't come home...
[21:47] Yume
I was finally getting used
to how things are.
[21:52] Mizuto
What was I thinking back there?
[21:57] Mizuto
I'd almost gotten over the past.

Wanna stick together during

[00:21] Mizuto
Let me just tell you this.
[00:23] Mizuto
There's nothing to gain in befriending me.
[00:25] Mizuto
Why, you ask?
[00:27] Mizuto
You're so evidently the player type

that there's no way in hell
I'd let you anywhere near Yume.
[00:35] Kogure
Of course. I expected as much.
[00:38] Mizuto
What are you on about?
[00:40] Kogure
Oh, nothing. Just talking to myself.
[00:42] Kogure
I'm Kawanami Kogure.
[00:45] Kogure
And I'm the first guy who's
genuinely trying to befriend you.
[00:50] Mizuto
That just makes you
even more suspicious.
[00:52] Kogure
Don't be like that, bro.
[00:54] Mizuto
I don't recall being related to you.
[00:57] Kogure
Too bad. Friends it is, then.
[01:00] Kogure
The pleasure's mine.
[01:00] Mizuto
Have you no concept of boundaries?
[01:04] Kogure
Now then, pal,
[01:05] Kogure
to celebrate our newfound friendship,
why don't I let you in on a little something?
[01:11] Mizuto
And that would be?

If you turn around, you'll see
something truly incredible.

U-Um...
[03:26] Yume
What is it?
[03:29] Akatsuki
Whoops, my bad, my bad.
[03:32] Akatsuki
I was just thinking, you've got a big bust
for someone with such a petite figure.
[03:37] Akatsuki
I mean, look. This is all
I've got going for me.
[03:40] Akatsuki
All taking measurements does is
remind me how much I haven't grown.
[03:45] Akatsuki
So I get depressed whenever
this time of year rolls around.
[03:48] Yume
I feel that. I've definitely been there.
[03:51] Yume
Just last year, mine weren't very big at all.
[03:54] Akatsuki
What? They weren't?
[03:57] Yume
I'd say they were about the same
size as yours last year.
[04:00] Akatsuki
What?!
[04:03] Akatsuki
You got that big in a year?!
[04:06] Akatsuki
O-On a side note...
[04:08] Akatsuki
Might I inquire as to
your bra size, perchance?
[04:12] Yume
Um...
[04:19] Akatsuki
Did you say D?
[04:22] Yume
J-Just keep in mind that I like
to go a size up, okay?
[04:27] Akatsuki
Wow!
[04:28] Akatsuki
You've given me hope, Irido-san!
[04:31] Yume
Hey... M-Minami-san?!
[04:33] Yume
Don't they say the people you
hang around rub off on you?
[04:36] Yume
So if I stick to you like this,
maybe mine'll get bigger too!
[04:40] Yume
Come on, come on!
[04:40] Yume
I don't think that's what
that saying means...
[04:50] Akatsuki
Do we really have to do physical
fitness tests even at prep school?
[04:55] Akatsuki
Ugh, this totally sucks.
[04:58] Yume
I agree.
[05:00] Yume
When I got into high school,
[05:02] ---
I made a conscious effort to change
my looks and personality.
[05:05] Yume
But when it comes to fitness...
[05:09] Akatsuki
Well, Irido-san,
let's just get this over with.
[05:13] Yume
Y-Yeah, let's.

Yo, are you seeing this?
[05:25] Male Student 1
Minami's cracked!
[05:28] Akatsuki
Dang! Only 55 jumps?
[05:32] Akatsuki
I was hoping to do a little better than that.
[05:35] Yume
M-Minami-san...
[05:37] Yume
I thought you said you
weren't good at these things.
[05:40] Akatsuki
I didn't say I wasn't good at it.
[05:42] Akatsuki
I just said that it sucks.
[05:44] Akatsuki
Come on. If they see a short little
girl like me beating the boys,
[05:49] Akatsuki
they'll start picking on me, y'know?
[05:51] Yume
Impressive misdirection.
[05:59] Yume
I've finally established my

I'm sorry I didn't realize you
were so worn out, Irido-san.
[08:38] Yume
No, it's okay.
[08:40] Yume
It was my own fault for trying
so hard in the first place.
[08:44] Akatsuki
Trying so hard?
[08:45] Yume
I'm actually really bad at athletics.
[08:50] Yume
I was worried people would find out,
[08:52] Yume
so I've been staying up late weight training
[08:54] Yume
and reading books on sports
from cover to cover.
[08:57] Yume
I think I just wore myself
out from lack of sleep.
[09:00] Akatsuki
Gotcha.
[09:02] Akatsuki
That makes me feel so much closer to you!
[09:06] Yume
Huh? Why is that?
[09:08] Akatsuki
If I'm honest, part of me found
you a little hard to approach.
[09:12] Akatsuki
I mean, you're pretty and smart.
Out of my league, in a way.
[09:16] Akatsuki
But man, I had no idea.
[09:18] Akatsuki
So you suck at sports and
you're a try-hard, huh?
[09:21] Yume
N-Now you're getting under my skin.
Mind if I let you have it?
[09:25] Akatsuki
Go right ahead.
[09:26] Akatsuki
I'd love to see you when you're angry.
[09:29] Yume
Well then, sorry in advance.
[09:31] Yume
H-Hey, you...
[09:35] Akatsuki
"Hey, you," she says! You're so cute!
[09:40] Yume
D-Don't laugh. You're making
me feel self-conscious.
[09:44] Akatsuki
Hey, Irido-san!
[09:46] Akatsuki
Is it all right if I call you Yume-chan?
[09:49] Yume
Huh? Y-You mean by my given name?
[09:52] Akatsuki
Yeah, exactly! Is that cool?
[09:55] Yume
Um, sure. I m-mean... I'd like that.
[10:01] Akatsuki
Hurray!
[10:03] Akatsuki
I'm so glad we're friends now, Yume-chan!
[10:08] Yume
Wait, does this mean I have
to call her by her name now too?!
[10:14] Yume
A-A-Aka... Akatsu...
[10:19] Akatsuki
There, there. You can take your time.
[10:22] Akatsuki
There's no need to rush.
[10:26] Yume
It's a pleasure to get to know you
as well, Minami-san.
[10:29] Akatsuki
Hold on. So you're not gonna call me Akatsuki?
[10:32] Akatsuki
And why so formal?!
[10:47] Yume
Um, about earlier...

I've kinda got a knack for
picking up on that stuff, y'know?

But not anymore, right?

Well? Hit the nail on the head?
[15:28] Mizuto
No comment.
[15:29] Akatsuki
Oh, so you're taking that route.
[15:32] Akatsuki
But really, what'll you do
if you get another girl?
[15:36] Mizuto
Highly unlikely. Besides, I don't want one.
[15:38] Akatsuki
I'm saying if. You wouldn't
introduce her to Yume-chan?
[15:41] Mizuto
Of course not.
It's not like I need her blessing.
[15:45] Mizuto
And it'd be a pain.
[15:47] Akatsuki
But that means she'd never find out
if you have someone or not.

Unless you got married.

I guess not.

year of middle school,
[18:49] Mizuto
I had what you might call a girlfriend.
[18:53] Mizuto
Her name was Ayai Yume.
[18:58] Mizuto
At least, it was at the time.
[19:01] Mizuto
We read books and talked about them together.
[19:03] Mizuto
And when she got sick, I'd hold her hand.
[19:06] Mizuto
Like some couple out of a YA novel
for love-obsessed teens,
[19:10] Mizuto
we spent our days never tiring of one another.
[19:13] Mizuto
But trivial disagreements began to pile up,
[19:16] Mizuto
and by graduation,
we went our separate ways.
[19:19] Mizuto
It was a perfectly typical romance,
[19:23] Mizuto
until that day...
[19:26] Mizuto
My dad had gotten remarried,
[19:27] Mizuto
and the moment I came face-to-face
with my stepmom's daughter,

the exact same thing.

Don't spill it.
[19:49] Yume
Go buy me ice cream.
[19:51] Mizuto
What kind?
[19:52] Yume
I want a book. Gimme money.
[19:55] Mizuto
Why should I?
[19:56] Yume
Would you... hold my hand again?
[20:00] Mizuto
Yeah, yeah.
[20:02] Mizuto
Hey.
[20:04] Mizuto
It's time to check your temperature again.
[20:06] Mizuto
If you've been resting all day
and it still hasn't gone down,
[20:09] ---
then it could be serious, you know?
[20:11] Yume
N-No, I'm okay! I'm completely fine!
[20:15] Mizuto
We need to take your temperature
to make sure, don't we?
[20:20] Mizuto
Now raise your arm.
[20:22] Yume
N-No...
[20:24] Yume
No!
[20:29] Mizuto
It's 36.5 degrees...
[20:37] Mizuto
All right, you. How long
has your fever been gone?
[20:40] Yume
No comment.
[20:42] Mizuto
You weren't pretending to be sick
just to boss me around, were you?
[20:46] Yume
No comment!
[20:49] Mizuto
So asking me to hold your hand was also...
[20:53] Mizuto
Hey, don't you run away!
[20:55] Yume
I'm going back to sleep just to be safe!
[20:58] Mizuto
You've slept enough, haven't you?
[21:00] Mizuto
Taking advantage of my kindness like that!
[21:07] Mizuto
Don't you have something to say?
[21:10] Yume
Um...
[21:12] Mizuto
Or can you not say it unless
I hold your hand for you?
[21:16] Yume
I-I'm sorry for pretending to be sick.
[21:22] Mizuto
Very good.
[21:23] Mizuto
Well, it's true that you're
still technically recovering,
[21:27] Mizuto
so I'll let it slide this time.
[21:29] Yume
You being nice to me is weirding me out.
[21:33] Mizuto
I'll take that as a compliment,
[21:35] Mizuto
Miss I Can't Fall Asleep
Without You Holding My Hand.
[21:41] Yume
I can't hear you!
[21:42] Yume
I have no idea what you're talking about!
[21:46] Mizuto
If you're this lively, I guess you
don't need me to look after you anymore.
[21:49] Mizuto
I'm going back to my room now, okay?
[21:51] Yume
Hey...
[21:52] Mizuto
Hmm?
[21:53] Yume
Don't go off somewhere...
[21:55] Yume
and leave me behind.
[21:58] Mizuto
Well, we are siblings now.
[22:04] Mizuto
I think I can stick around.

[00:08] Yume
This exceptionally introverted girl
is me from six months ago.
[00:16] Yume
Back then, every time he gave me something,
[00:20] Yume
I would store it in a small box.
[00:24] Yume
I repeated a cult-like ritual
of smiling creepily
[00:28] Yume
while worshiping it like some sacred object.
[00:34] Yume
Truly alarming behavior.
[00:36] Yume
Should you look up "crazy woman"
in the dictionary,
[00:39] Yume
you'd likely find a picture
of me from back then.

[02:29] Yume
Wait! Hold on a sec!
[02:31] Yume
How on earth did I end up
with his underwear?!
[02:34] Yume
And what was I doing with them?!
[02:38] Yume
Just kill me!
[02:39] Yume
It's like I've regressed
into some desperate loser!
[02:42] Yume
I thought I'd left the
introverted life behind me!
[02:47] Yume
This is all his fault for wearing
underwear in the first place!
[02:50] Yume
Because of him, my old self
is rearing her ugly head again!
[02:54] Yume
If he were to find out about this...
[02:57] Yume
It would be a major violation of our rules!
[03:00] Yume
I'd be pronounced guilty
with no hope of appeal,
[03:02] Yume
nor any hope of a deferred sentence!
[03:03] Yume
I'd have to submit to being his little sister.
[03:07] Yume
And then... And then...
[03:15] Mizuto
'Sup, little sister, who made off with her
stepbrother's underwear like a pervert.
[03:19] Yume
I-I'm not a perv...
[03:22] Mizuto
Oh?
[03:23] Mizuto
You mean to say that stealing my underwear
and keeping my things in a little box
[03:28] Mizuto
isn't the behavior of a pervert?
[03:35] Yume
Irido-kun...
[03:38] Mizuto
Don't you mean...
[03:40] Mizuto
"Onii-chan," my perverted little sister?!
[03:44] Yume
Onii-chan!
[03:49] Yume
I-If I don't do something...
[03:51] Yume
I think I'm gonna go insane!
[03:57] Yume
Accursed thing!
I must return them before it's too late!

he still seems to be awake.

I thought I'd have the perfect opportunity
at this hour with everyone fast asleep.
[04:18] Yume
What could possibly have
him pacing about like that?
[04:22] Yume
I'll just have to wait
until he's gone to bed...
SIGN April
[04:37] Yume
No signs of movement.
[04:40] Yume
He must have finally gone to bed.
[04:43] Yume
Now's my chance!

Huh?
[05:15] Mizuto & Yume
Ready, set, go!

[05:22] Mizuto
You were the one who suggested
this family meeting, right?
[05:25] Mizuto
Come on. We said whoever
lost had to go first.
[05:29] Mizuto
Get on with it.
[05:31] Yume
It wasn't my fault.
[05:33] Yume
I just reverted to my old,
introverted ways is all.
[05:37] Yume
Had I been in my right mind, I wouldn't have
given your underwear a second thought.
[05:41] Mizuto
Your old, introverted self, huh?
[05:44] Mizuto
Sounds like you're saying this
[05:46] ---
would've been normal for you
back in middle school.
[05:49] Mizuto
You mind explaining yourself?
[05:53] Yume
Do I really have to explain that too?
[05:56] Mizuto
No withholding information
at times like this.
[05:59] Mizuto
We must wholly and truthfully reveal
our dirty secrets to one another.
[06:03] Yume
Well, this was back when we were dating,
[06:08] Yume
but I used to keep
the things you'd give me.
[06:11] Yume
I kept them in a little box.
[06:22] Yume
Hold on, are you blushing?
[06:25] Mizuto
Why would I be?
[06:26] Yume
Did that make you happy?
[06:29] Yume
The fact that I used to keep
the things you gave me?
[06:32] Mizuto
Why on earth would that make me happy?
[06:34] Mizuto
It's sickening. Absolutely revolting.
[06:37] Mizuto
In any event, look who's finally
decided to come clean.
[06:41] Mizuto
Though I'm sure you could've
kept it to yourself
[06:44] Mizuto
and cast the blame solely on me.
[06:51] Mizuto
Did you just think,
"Why didn't I think of that?"
[06:54] Yume
N-No, I didn't.
[06:56] Yume
It's just... Ah, yes! I wanted to play fair.
[07:01] Mizuto
I think somewhere deep down,
you wanted me to find out.
[07:04] Mizuto
Why not take the chance to confess?
[07:06] Mizuto
You actually wanted me to see
how perverted you are, right?
[07:09] Yume
Yeah, yeah. It's your turn now, isn't it?!
[07:13] Mizuto
Yes, well...
[07:16] Mizuto
How should I say this?
[07:18] Mizuto
Given my situation, I... don't think
you'd believe me even if I told you.
[07:24] Mizuto
It was an accident.
[07:26] Mizuto
Your bra fell on the floor,
so I picked it up,
[07:28] Mizuto
but then Dad walked in and...
[07:34] (Flashback) Mizuto
What's that?
[07:41] (Flashback) Mineaki
Oh, done with your bath already?
[07:43] (Flashback) Mizuto
Y-Yup!
[07:45] Mizuto
So, as you can see, I simply missed
my chance to put it back.
[07:49] Yume
Huh?! You scoundrel!
[07:51] Yume
There's no way something
that convenient happened!
[07:55] Yume
You just wanted my bra,
so you stole it, didn't you?
[07:58] Mizuto
I didn't steal it!
[07:59] Mizuto
And besides,
[08:00] Mizuto
you took my boxers back
to your room too, did you not?
[08:03] Yume
But that was...
[08:05] Yume
a-an accident.
[08:06] Yume
They fell on the floor, so I picked them up,
[08:09] Yume
but then Mom walked in and...
[08:14] (Flashback) Yume
What's that?
[08:22] (Flashback) Yuni
Oh, all done with your bath?
[08:24] (Flashback) Yume
Y-Yeah!
[08:26] Yume
So you could say I missed my chance.
[08:30] Mizuto
You just said the exact same thing I did.
[08:32] Yume
I-In any case...
[08:34] Yume
After you took my bra to your room,
[08:36] ---
you didn't d-do anything weird, did you?
[08:39] Mizuto
What do you mean by weird?
[08:41] Yume
W-Well, you know...
[08:43] Mizuto
Don't worry.
[08:45] Mizuto
All I did was move it to my room
and then here, to the living room.
[08:49] Mizuto
I swear to you, I didn't do anything else.
[08:52] Yume
Really?
[08:54] Mizuto
Really.
[08:55] Yume
Not even poke the cups?
[08:59] Mizuto
Absolutely not.
[09:01] Yume
You had to think about that!
[09:02] Mizuto
I said I didn't do it!
[09:03] Mizuto
I trust you didn't do anything weird
with my boxers either, then?
[09:09] Mizuto
Like smell them, for instance.
[09:12] Yume
I did not.
[09:14] Mizuto
You had to think about that.
[09:16] Mizuto
Forget it. We're in agreement, right?
[09:18] Mizuto
We mustn't speak of this incident ever again.
[09:22] Yume
Yes, that would be for the best.
[09:27] Yume
Now then, Mizuto-kun...
[09:29] Mizuto
What is it, Yume-san?
[09:31] Yume
We're both out of bounds, aren't we?
[09:33] Mizuto
You mean our little game? I'm aware.
[09:36] Mizuto
Normal siblings wouldn't abscond
with each other's underwear.
[09:39] Yume
Then it's time we made a deal.
[09:42] Yume
So, what shall I have you do for me,
little brother of mine?
[09:46] Mizuto
Don't think for a second I'll concede this,
my dear little sister.
[09:57] Mizuto
How about this for a deal?
[09:59] Mizuto
As long as it doesn't infringe
upon any social norms,
[10:02] Mizuto
we each get a demand.
[10:04] Yume
A demand?
[10:06] Yume
Very well. I can agree to that.
[10:08] Mizuto
Okay. It's a deal.
[10:11] Mizuto
Our parents will be up soon.

Irido-kun's not doing too bad for himself.

I guess he can be pretty charming
despite his quiet demeanor,

he's actually kinda cute.

He could probably sweep a shy girl

I don't know what you're talking about.
[13:57] Mizuto
I've been alone all this—
[13:58] Yume
Don't play dumb with me!
[13:59] Yume
I saw a pair of girl's school shoes
by the door, plain as day.
[14:03] Yume
Here, I have proof.
[14:10] Mizuto
You just took that a minute ago, right?
[14:12] Yume
That's right.
[14:14] Mizuto
Why don't you go check your room?
[14:17] Yume
Huh?
[14:17] Mizuto
Just go check it, would you?
[14:20] Yume
Wh-What's gotten into you all of a sudden?

There wasn't anything there.

Are you sure?
[14:33] Mizuto
Nothing in your room whatsoever
had been tidied up or was out of place?
[14:38] Yume
Huh?
[14:39] Yume
You can't possibly be
suggesting paranormal activity.
[14:43] Yume
Out with it. Explain yourself already.
[14:46] Yume
Those shoes belonged to a girl
you brought home, didn't they?
[14:50] Mizuto
Huh?
[14:51] Mizuto
Oh. Yeah, yeah. That's right.
[14:54] Mizuto
You caught me. I'm busted.
[14:56] Yume
What?! That was quick... Wait a minute!
[14:59] Mizuto
What do you want? I'm exhausted.
[15:02] Mizuto
Don't you get it?

Why do I have to explain
myself to you, Yume-san?

Anyways...
[15:28] Mizuto
I'll be more careful next time.
Just forget about this, okay?
[15:32] Mizuto
Later.
[15:50] Yume
Seriously, did he forget where
his room is or something?
[16:00] Yume
Am I misunderstanding something here?
[16:06] Yume
Am I just... making a big deal
out of nothing like I always do?

I was convinced she was perfect,

Honestly, she's quite the cheeky little
devil for making me feel this way.
[18:11] (Flashback) Akatsuki
If she became my older sister,
I'd wanna do so much for her.
[18:16] (Flashback) Akatsuki

And rub her up and down with

You've known her for a while,
right, Kawanami?
[19:11] Mizuto
Give it to me straight.
What kind of person is she?
[19:14] Mizuto
Intensely passionate with little
prospect of simmering down.
[19:18] Mizuto
Once she gets hooked on something,
it consumes her.
[19:21] Mizuto
And her infatuation only continues to boil.
[19:24] Mizuto
Until finally, one day...
[19:29] Mizuto
Kaboom!

[19:34] Kogure
Well...
[19:36] Kogure
I'm reluctant to throw her
under the bus like this,
[19:39] Kogure
but let me give you an example.
[19:41] Kogure
Back in middle school,
Minami had a boyfriend.
[19:45] Mizuto
What?
[19:46] Kogure
Some guys are idiots, you know?
[19:48] Kogure
As you might imagine,
she was exceptionally devoted.
[19:52] Kogure
They spent every waking moment together,
[19:54] ---
as she relentlessly tended to his every need.
[19:57] Kogure
And, of course, her boyfriend
was happy in the beginning.
[20:00] Kogure
It's great to have a girl you like,
especially a decently pretty one,
[20:05] Kogure
fawn over you like that.
[20:08] Kogure
No guy on the planet would argue with that.
[20:12] Kogure
But three months went by,
[20:16] ---
and do you know what happened?
[20:19] Kogure
He collapsed from stress
and was hospitalized.
[20:24] Kogure
And that's the frightening
thing about Minami Akatsuki.
[20:29] Kogure
That girl...
[20:31] Kogure
She'll dote on you,
tormenting you, plaguing you!
[20:36] Kogure
Until one day, it finally kills you.
[20:40] Mizuto
That all sounds a little far-fetched,
[20:42] Mizuto
although it's honestly
not that hard to imagine.
[20:45] Kogure
Well, as long as you
stand your ground with her,
[20:48] Kogure
you should be fine.
[20:50] Kogure
She may be persistent,
but don't go wavering on me, all right?
[20:54] Kogure
If she gets to be too much,
[20:56] Kogure
we'll have to come up with
a more direct approach.
[21:00] Mizuto
I'd rather have that sooner than later.
[21:05] Kogure
Very well.
[21:06] Kogure
All you have to do is get her to give
up on her obsession with Irido-san.
[21:11] Kogure
And I already have a tactic in mind.
[21:14] Kogure
Irido Mizuto, you must now go to
Irido-san and tell her this...
[21:33] Yume
What is it?
[21:34] Mizuto
I'd like to exercise your punishment now.
[21:37] Yume
My punishment?
[21:38] Mizuto
Right.
[21:39] Mizuto
For violating the norms of sibling behavior
[21:42] Mizuto
in light of the underwear incident.
[21:44] Yume
Oh, that?
[21:46] Yume
As long as it doesn't
infringe upon any social norms,
[21:49] ---
we each get to make a demand, correct?
[21:51] Yume
So, what is it you'd have me do?
[22:00] Mizuto
Go on a date with me tomorrow.

[04:23] (Flashback) Kogure
You with me, Irido?
[04:25] (Flashback) Kogure
Our mission on today's date
[04:27] (Flashback) Kogure
is to get the unrivaled lunatic Minami Akatsuki
[04:30] (Flashback) Kogure
to give up her obsession with Irido-san.
[04:34] (Flashback) Kogure
And so, fresh into high school,
[04:36] (Flashback) Kogure
we're gonna make Irido Yume's
brother complex a reality!
[04:40] (Flashback) Kogure
When Minami sees that Irido-san
only has eyes for you,
[04:44] (Flashback) Kogure
her impulsive dreams of marrying
into the family will be shattered.
[04:48] (Flashback) Kogure
Once she finds out the two
of you are going on a date,
[04:52] (Flashback) Kogure
she won't hesitate to come sneak a peek.
[04:54] (Flashback) Kogure
So don't let this opportunity go to waste.
[04:58] (Flashback) Kogure
You gotta whisk Irido-san off her feet.
[05:00] (Flashback) Kogure
Show Minami a couple madly in love,
and her heart'll just...
[05:05] (Flashback) Kogure
snap right in two.
[05:07] (Flashback) Kogure
Want some?
[05:09] (Flashback) Mizuto
I'll pass.
[05:21] Mizuto
I get his logic.
[05:23] Mizuto
However...
[05:25] Mizuto
Since I can't tell her about Minami,
[05:28] Mizuto
there's no way for me
to explain the situation.
[05:31] Mizuto
I just have to play the jerk
trying to win back
[05:35] Mizuto
the ex he broke up with
once the honeymoon phase was over.
[05:40] Mizuto
Kill me now.
[05:42] (Flashback) Kogure
Listen good, Irido.
[05:43] (Flashback) Kogure
What I'm about to tell you is invaluable.
[05:46] (Flashback) Kogure
You must always compliment
a girl's outfit. Always.
[05:53] Mizuto
I've confirmed my target's location
and I'm ready for action.
[05:57] Mizuto
I'll strike now and, with any luck,
the attack will hit Minami too.
[06:03] Mizuto
Actually, doesn't she seem a
little livelier than usual?
[06:10] Yume
Hey...
[06:11] Mizuto
Wh-What's up?
[06:13] Yume
Did you know this fish tank
is famous for its size?
[06:17] Mizuto
Y-Yeah, it does seem pretty big.
[06:21] Mizuto
Damn it. I lost my nerve.
[06:24] Mizuto
This is way out of my comfort zone.
[06:26] Mizuto
Ergo, I blame Kawanami.
[06:29] Kogure
What I'm about to tell you is invaluable.
[06:32] Kogure
You must always compliment
a girl's outfit. Always.
[06:38] Mizuto
You look...
[06:40] Mizuto
strangely cute today, huh?
[06:44] Mizuto
I-I messed up.
[06:46] Mizuto
I accidentally deployed my usual sarcasm!
[06:49] Mizuto
This is bad!
[06:51] Yume
Th...
[06:52] Yume
Thank you.
[06:56] Mizuto
Hold up.
[06:57] Mizuto
Wait, wait, wait, wait!
[06:59] Mizuto
That is not the response
of a girl who's dated before.
[07:03] Mizuto
More like a middle schooler
talking to their first crush!
[07:06] Mizuto
Get it together, Miss High School Debut!
[07:11] Mizuto
I guess I'll just have
to show you how it's done.
[07:21] Mizuto
S-Sure...
[07:26] Kogure
See? Like a house on fire, aren't they?
[07:30] Akatsuki
Are they?
[07:49] Male Attendee
Oh, excuse us.
[07:49] Child
Look at the fishies!
[07:51] Mizuto
They didn't bump into you, did they?
[07:53] Yume
Hang on! He's so close!
[07:55] Yume
And he smells so nice!
[07:57] Yume
Gimme a break! What's with him today?!
[08:00] Yume
Such a gentlemen! And so sweet!
[08:03] Yume
His every move has me
feeling weak in the knees...
[08:09] Yume
How long do you plan on holding my shoulder?
[08:12] Mizuto
O-Oh, my bad.
[08:14] Mizuto
There are a lot of people
around, so stay close.
[08:17] Yume
You needn't keep reminding me, you know?
[08:20] Yume
I'm not a child.
[08:23] Mizuto
You're right.
[08:26] Mizuto
Huh?
[08:27] Mizuto
I thought my response sounded
pretty snarky just now.
[08:31] Mizuto
Where's his comeback? The snide retort?
[08:34] Mizuto
Did you leave your stock
contemptuous laugh at home?
[08:40] Mizuto
When I look at the tank,
she sneaks a glance at me.
[08:44] Mizuto
And when I pull her close
to keep her from getting bumped,
[08:47] Mizuto
her gaze turns into a piercing glare.
[08:51] Mizuto
Even now...
[08:53] Mizuto
she's still staring at me.
[08:55] Mizuto
Why are dates... such a struggle?
[09:04] Mizuto
You sound like a pig, you know?
[09:05] Kogure
Oink!
[09:07] Mizuto
Help me, Kawanami.
We look so awkward together.
[09:11] Kogure
Really? Is that how it looks to you?
[09:15] Mizuto
Of course it does. I'm not blind.
[09:18] Kogure
Well, I will say this...
[09:22] Kogure
I'll leave the judgment calls
to the man on the front line.
[09:25] Mizuto
Hey, quit making me do all the work.
[09:27] Mizuto
Hold up your end of the bargain, Commander!
[09:34] Mizuto
Whatever the circumstances,
I'm the one who asked her out.
[09:37] Mizuto
I shouldn't do anything that
might jeopardize our date.
[09:42] Mizuto
Still...
[09:43] Mizuto
This is on her for making friends
with an unrepentant menace.
[09:48] Mizuto
Why am I bending over backward
for someone who isn't even my girlfriend?
[09:57] Yume
I've made three miscalculations.
[09:59] Yume
First, the line for the girl's bathroom
was so long that I didn't want to wait,
[10:04] Yume
but when I went to look for another one,
it was farther away than I thought.
[10:09] Yume
Second, the aquarium's layout is
far more complicated than I thought.
[10:12] Yume
And lastly, I'm terrible at reading maps.
[10:17] Yume
All this is to say...
[10:19] Yume
As hard as it is to admit, I'm lost.
[10:24] Yume
Why am I always like this?!
SIGN Irido Mizuto
[10:36] Yume
Hello?
[10:38] Mizuto

Right...
[10:48] Yume
I-I'm sorry.
[10:51] Yume
Here comes the flood of sarcastic comments.
[10:54] Yume
He'd never pass up this chance to
unleash a storm of personal attacks.
[10:57] Yume
I can just see his snide face now.
[10:59] Yume
But right now, I couldn't even argue.
[11:04] Mizuto
No, it's not like you did anything wrong.
[11:08] Mizuto
It's my fault for not
keeping an eye on you.
[11:11] Mizuto
Stay put.
[11:13] Mizuto
I'll come get you, so don't go—
[11:14] Yume
No.
[11:17] Yume
That's not what you're supposed to say.
[11:19] Mizuto
Huh?
[11:26] Mizuto
What does that mean?
[11:28] Mizuto
What was I supposed to say?
SIGN My Stepmom's Daughter Is My Ex
[11:37] Yume
Why did he say that?
[11:39] Yume
He's being so nice to me today.
[11:43] Yume
Charming and kind. A true gentlemen.
[11:46] Yume
It's far better than the usual tempest
[11:48] Yume
of mockery and cynical comments.
[11:50] Yume
This is infinitely preferable
to the infuriating and incessant
[11:53] Yume
bickering we always fall into.
[11:56] Yume
And yet...
[11:58] Yume
What is it that I want, exactly?
[12:02] Yume
Here I am becoming a burden
to him all over again...
[12:06] Yume
Looking back, I can only describe
it as a youthful indiscretion.
[12:10] Yume
But from my second to third
year of middle school,
[12:14] Yume
I had what you might call a boyfriend.
[12:18] Yume
Before we officially started dating,
[12:21] Yume
we only ever spoke when we saw
each other in the school library.
[12:25] Yume
But one day, I mustered all my courage
[12:28] Yume
and asked someone out for
the first time in my life.
[12:32] Yume
The local festival we visited was far
more crowded than we expected.
[12:37] Yume
We ended up getting separated.
[12:40] Yume
I made a fool of myself
on my very first date.
[12:43] Yume
Between knowing each precious moment
that passed was wasted time
[12:46] Yume
and the pain from the unforgiving straps
on my geta sandals,
[12:50] Yume
I've never wanted to disappear
more in my entire life.
[12:54] Yume
Through all my sniffling and whimpering,
[12:57] Yume
I apologized to him profusely over the phone.
[13:00] Yume
But he just told me to "stay put"
[13:03] Yume
before hanging up.
[13:05] Yume
I was always clumsy and inelegant.
A failure at everything I did.
[13:10] Yume
And I always resented myself for it.
[13:13] Yume
But I never wanted to be a burden to others.
[13:16] Yume
At the very least, I didn't want the guy
I liked to think I was a burden.
[13:21] Yume
But I got greedy, carried away,
and overconfident.
[13:25] Yume
And that was the price I paid.
[13:28] Yume
When all I could think was that the
world would be better off without me,
[13:35] Yume
he reached out to offer me a drink
[13:40] Yume
and said this to me...
[13:44] (Flashback) Mizuto
You know, Ayai,
[13:45] (Flashback) Mizuto
I'm honestly pretty worn out after
having to find you in this crowd.
[13:51] (Flashback) Mizuto
And listening to all that crying over the phone
[13:54] (Flashback) Mizuto
left me pretty drained mentally too.
[13:56] (Flashback) Mizuto
But you know what?
[13:58] (Flashback) Mizuto
None of that changes how I think of you.
[14:03] (Flashback) Mizuto
I already knew you can be clumsy
and a little inelegant sometimes.
[14:07] (Flashback) Mizuto
And today, I learned you get lost easily too.
[14:10] (Flashback) Mizuto
But even knowing all of that,
I'm not going anywhere.
[14:14] (Flashback) Mizuto
So you don't have to be afraid.
[14:16] (Flashback) Mizuto
No matter what...
[14:25] Yume
I wanna go home...
[14:38] Mizuto
So you don't have to be afraid.
[14:41] Mizuto
No matter what...
[14:43] Mizuto
you can always rely on me.
[15:00] Mizuto
I have come to collect you, my lady.
[15:04] Mizuto
I daresay it might behoove you
to improve your sense of direction.
[15:11] Yume
What was that?
[15:13] Yume
Your sense of humor never ceases to amaze me.
[15:15] Mizuto
What did you just say?
[15:17] Mizuto
All right, I've got it.
[15:19] Mizuto
We settle this with a bibliobattle.
[15:21] Mizuto
Let's do this.
[15:22] Yume
Then I'll go first.
[15:25] Yume
The Nonserial Murders by Sakaguchi Ango.
[15:28] Mizuto
Then I'll go next.
[15:30] Mizuto
"The Dancing Girl" by Mori Ogai.
[15:31] Yume
Don't you dare remind me
about that scumbag Toyotaro!
[15:35] Mizuto
Last I checked, The Nonserial Murders
is a parade of scumbags.
[15:39] Yume
Most of them die in the end, so who cares?
[15:41] Mizuto
Oh?
[15:42] Mizuto
So what?
[15:43] Mizuto
It's all good as long as
the bad guys kick the bucket?
[15:43] Akatsuki
They seem like they're having fun.
[15:45] Yume
That's not what I meant.
[15:50] Yume
Can't you just imagine dead
bodies floating around in there?
[15:54] Mizuto
Should we move this date to a mental
institution, Miss Mystery Buff?
[15:57] Yume
Come on. Don't tell me you don't see it.
[16:01] Yume
Amongst the gracefully drifting jellyfish,
[16:04] Yume
broken remains of corpses
gently sway to and fro...
[16:08] Yume
What a mystery that would make.
[16:11] Mizuto
Never in my wildest dreams have
I had such a disturbing thought.
[16:15] Mizuto
The best twist I can conceive is that
[16:17] Mizuto
some man-eating shark
appeared in the Kamo River
[16:20] Mizuto
and devoured each and every couple
that dared to sit on its banks.
[16:25] Yume
Your idea sounds way more disturbing!
[16:27] Yume
Besides, there's no way a shark could
swim in such a shallow river.
[16:31] Mizuto
Sharks possess limitless ability,
so it's quite possible.
[16:35] Yume
No, they don't. They're fish.
[16:37] Mizuto
All right, then.
Why don't we test that theory?
[16:40] Mizuto
I can't wait to see you cower in fear,
[16:44] Mizuto
helpless but to bow down to
the shark's infinite power.
[16:47] Yume
What makes you so confident?
[16:50] Yume
You sound more arrogant than a serial
killer with a mythological sobriquet
[16:54] Yume
announcing his next crime.
[16:55] Mizuto
What'd you say, stupid nerd?
[16:57] Yume
You got a problem, stupid geek?
[17:03] Mizuto
In the six months since
our problems started,
[17:06] Mizuto
I slowly began to hate
her as the days went by.
[17:10] Mizuto
Everything she did and everything she
said started getting on my nerves.
[17:16] Mizuto
That was the most painful part of it.
[17:20] Mizuto
What I'd loved about her more than anything...
[17:22] Mizuto
What I'd so cherished about her...
[17:24] Mizuto
One after the other, my love for them
turned to hatred. It was torment.
[17:31] Mizuto
That's why we broke up.
[17:36] Mizuto
And so...
[17:38] Mizuto
now freed from the romantic
bond that once held us,
[17:41] Mizuto
we have no obligation to
try to love one another,
[17:44] Mizuto
and no reason to come to hate one another.
[17:47] Mizuto
We're just stepsiblings who used
to date once upon a time.
[17:52] Mizuto
Yes, I understand now.
[17:55] Mizuto
Our situation now is a blessing compared
to the unhealthy relationship we had before.
[18:03] Yume
All right, I'll head home first.
[18:06] Mizuto
Sure.
[18:10] Mizuto
Going home separately thus
concludes our date at the aquarium.

[19:14] Akatsuki
So that's it.
[19:18] Akatsuki
I'm not gonna thank you, you know.
[19:19] Mizuto
You had better.
[19:20] Mizuto
You should be on your knees right now.
[19:29] Mizuto
By the way...
[19:31] Mizuto
What exactly made you think to leave
an extra chair at our dining table?
[19:37] Akatsuki
What are you talking about?
[19:39] Mizuto
Huh?
[19:42] Akatsuki
I'm kidding, I'm kidding. It was a joke!
[19:44] Mizuto
Hey...
[19:45] Akatsuki
It was just a little make-believe, you know?
[19:48] Akatsuki
Man, I'm really sorry about that!
[19:50] Akatsuki
From now on, I'll behave
[19:52] ---
and shamelessly invite myself
over as her dear friend.
[19:55] Mizuto
Hey now.
[19:56] Mizuto
You clearly haven't given backing off
[19:59] ---
even the slightest thought, have you?
[20:02] Akatsuki
About that...
[20:04] Akatsuki
I still plan on marrying you and
living together, you hear?
[20:06] Mizuto
Haven't given up on that, huh?
[20:09] Akatsuki

by the door are both still mysteries.
[20:32] Yume

Well, in any case, the date is over now.

Hey, Nee-san?

Eh?
[21:41] Mizuto
While we're at it, I'm willing to take
one more request if you'd like.
[21:46] Yume
O-Okay, then...
[21:49] Yume
Would you hug me from behind
and whisper something in my ear?
[21:55] Mizuto
What kind of request is that?
[21:58] Yume
It's your punishment!
[21:59] Yume
It has nothing to do with my
own fantasies whatsoever!
[22:22] Mizuto
I've caught you.
[22:36] Yume
You caught me.
[22:42] Akatsuki
Morning, Yume-chan!
[22:44] Yume
Good morning, Minami-san.
[22:46] Akatsuki
What didja do last Saturday?
[22:48] Akatsuki
I basically slept the entire day.
[22:51] Yume
I didn't really do anything special either.
[22:53] Yume
Just stayed home and read a book.
[22:55] Akatsuki
You don't say...
[22:57] Kogure
And with that, I'd say case closed.
[22:57] Akatsuki
What kind of books do you
read? Like what genre?
[23:01] Mizuto
It's still wide open if you ask me.
[23:01] Yume
I like mystery novels.
[23:04] Kogure
Well, if she does anything weird
again, just come talk to me.
[23:09] Kogure
When it comes to Minami Akatsuki,
you won't find a better man for the job.
[23:15] Mizuto
Pardon my asking, Kawanami, but...
[23:18] Mizuto
Have you ever been hospitalized?
[23:25] Kogure
Sure have.
[23:26] Kogure
Back in middle school, to be exact.
[23:30] Kogure
We both have it rough, don't we?
[23:32] Mizuto
You might be right.
[23:35] Yume
I'll bring it with me tomorrow.

[03:03] Mizuto
I don't see why we need to go

[03:07] Yume
It'll make her think we're still getting along.
[03:11] Yume
I thought you'd feel less awkward
if we gave her one together.
[03:15] Yume
And we can split the cost this way, right?
[03:17] Mizuto
That last one is the real reason, no?

It's the thought that counts, after all.
Not the price tag.

[05:36] Mizuto
You always make our lunches in

[05:42] Mizuto
So we wanted to show our gratitude,
I guess you could say.

[06:57] Mizuto
Did you come to watch?
[07:03] Yume
I'm sorry.
[07:05] Yume
The door was open, so I was just curious...
[07:09] Yume
You said you didn't remember much
about your mother, right?
[07:12] Mizuto
Well, she died when I was very little.
[07:16] Mizuto
I only know her face from this picture.
[07:21] Mizuto
I see.
[07:27] Mizuto
What are you doing?
[07:30] Yume
Supporting you.
[07:33] Yume
I am your older sister today, after all.
[07:38] Mizuto
I guess I signed up for this,
so I can't complain.
[07:42] Mizuto
"If you're going to eat poison,
might as well lick the plate."
[07:45] Yume
Did you just call me poison?
[07:53] Yume
By the way, giving that
present today got me thinking.
[07:57] Yume
This would be for both of our parents, but...
[08:02] Yume
I was wondering if we could give them
some alone time somehow.
[08:05] Yume
Alone time?
[08:07] Mizuto
They're newlyweds,
[08:08] ---
but they barely get to spend
any time as a couple, don't you think?
[08:13] Mizuto
I bet they're just trying
to be considerate of us.
[08:16] Yume
I'm impressed.
[08:18] Yume
I didn't think you were capable
of such noble consideration.
[08:22] Mizuto
Just how little do you think of me?
[08:26] Yume
Well, we could pay for them
to eat out or go travel somewhere.
[08:30] Yume
But that's way out of budget
with our allowance.
[08:34] Mizuto
Then let's think of it a different way.
[08:37] Mizuto
How about we go stay
overnight somewhere instead?
[08:42] Yume
Huh?
[08:44] Yume
Hold it! Why would we do that?
[08:47] Mizuto
Why? We want to give
our parents time alone, right?
[08:50] Mizuto
They deserve more than
just a few hours, don't you think?
[08:55] Yume
You're right.
[08:57] Yume
B-But a boy and a girl...
staying somewhere overnight...
[09:03] Mizuto
Don't tell me you think
we'll be staying together.
[09:06] Yume
Huh? We're not?
[09:08] Mizuto
Please...
[09:09] Mizuto
Internet cafes only allow couples
18 and up to stay the night.
[09:13] Mizuto
And we'd need parental permission
to stay at a hotel or an inn.
[09:17] Yume
R-Right...
[09:20] Mizuto
Well, there is one place that'd let
two high schoolers stay the night.
[09:25] Yume
There is? Where?
[09:30] Mizuto
A love hotel.
[09:32] Yume
A... A l-l-love... love...
[09:35] Mizuto
Apparently we can stay as long
as they don't figure out our ages.
[09:39] Mizuto
You in?
[09:40] Yume
O-O-Of course I'm not!
[09:43] Mizuto
I figured.
[09:45] Mizuto
The rates were a little pricey
when I checked earlier anyway.
[09:49] Yume
So you planned on us spending the
night together if they weren't?!

As a last resort.

Now I'm definitely not in!

over there and hurry inside.
[11:36] Akatsuki

This is a girls-only zone, so don't
even think about bothering us.

with Kawanami-kun?

Are you... for real?
[16:03] Yume
Now it's your turn to try.
Let your heart lead the way.
[16:08] Mizuto
Bring it on!
[16:12] Akatsuki
Sorry, Yume-chan!
[16:14] Akatsuki
I wasn't serious when I said
to mix the drinks at the fountain.
[16:17] Akatsuki
It was a joke!
[16:18] Yume
Are you... serious right now?
[16:22] Kogure
Looks like you got Mizuto fooled too!
[16:26] Akatsuki
Wow, like peas in a pod!
[16:28] Kogure
It's almost like you two are siblings!
[16:31] Mizuto & Yume
Like you two bosom buddies can talk!
[16:35] Akatsuki
That was great!
[16:38] Akatsuki
Say, Irido-kun.
[16:40] Akatsuki
You're good at Japanese, right?
[16:42] Akatsuki
Mind tutoring me later?
[16:45] Akatsuki
Midterms are coming up, you know?
[16:47] Mizuto
Is the snuggling necessary?
[16:49] Akatsuki
I gotta make Yume-chan so jealous that
she begs me to snuggle up to her instead.
[16:54] Mizuto
That's just plain dirty.
[16:56] Mizuto
If you need a tutor,
you should ask her instead.
[17:00] Yume
Me?
[17:01] Mizuto
Yeah. You're better suited
to teaching than I'll ever be.
[17:07] Mizuto
So dedicated to your studies.
[17:09] Yume
How smart of you to notice.
[17:11] Mizuto
Of course!
[17:12] Mizuto
You actually have to work hard to succeed,
[17:15] Mizuto
whereas I attain good grades
with very little effort.
[17:18] Mizuto
I'd hardly be an effective tutor.
[17:20] Yume
What's your problem?!
[17:22] Yume
Is it your life's work to piss me off?!
[17:25] Akatsuki
Touché, Irido-kun.
[17:27] Akatsuki
Didn't think you'd take advantage of
the situation to one-up me like that.

[17:51] Kogure
Say, Irido...
[17:53] Kogure
How hard do you think exams are...
[17:55] Mizuto
Hard.
[17:56] Mizuto
So hard that someone like me, who prides
himself on not trying, actually has to try.
[18:02] Kogure
For real?
[18:04] Mizuto
For real.
[18:07] Kogure
So the freedom I was promised
after I got in was all a lie!
[18:11] Mizuto
Well, I suppose you don't have to try
if you're okay with any old passing grade.
[18:16] Kogure
Huh?
[18:18] Kogure
So why are you studying so hard, Irido?
[18:23] Mizuto
I can't go losing to my little sister, can I?
[18:29] Kogure
You two are something else.
[18:32] Kogure
I've never felt compelled to
face off with someone like that.
[18:36] Mizuto
Really?
[18:37] Mizuto
From what I saw today, you two
seemed pretty competitive to me.
[18:42] Kogure
But we're too concerned about appearances
to butt heads as openly as you do.
[18:48] Kogure
I'm exhausted just thinking
about keeping that up.
[18:51] Mizuto
The way I see it, at least you
two have some sense of decorum.
[18:55] Kogure
The grass is always greener
on the other side, I guess.
[18:59] Mizuto
Look at you, spouting proverbs.
And you were worried about studying.
[19:04] Kogure
When life gives you lemons,
make lemonade, right?
[19:08] Kogure
All right. Guess I'll try cracking a book too.
[19:11] Kogure
Now that I think about it,
[19:13] Kogure
it might be nice to do better than Minami.

I never knew you were into
wearing such cutesy pajamas.

It's okay, it's okay. I think it's cute.

In a dorky way.

The moon is beautiful, isn't it?
[20:27] Mizuto
You remember? That time on the school trip?
[20:31] Yume
Like I could forget.
[20:33] Yume
Not after somebody dared
to use such a pretentious come-on.
[20:37] Mizuto
It's bad form to harp on a
man's youthful indiscretions.
[20:42] Yume
What would you do if I told you
that's when I started liking you?
[20:46] Mizuto
There'd be no point.
[20:48] Mizuto
What would it change?
[20:51] Yume
You're right.
[20:53] Yume
I wouldn't call what I felt
back then "liking you" anyway.
[20:56] Mizuto
But you did feel something?
[20:59] Yume
Forget I said anything.
[21:04] Mizuto
Why bring that up all of a sudden anyway?
[21:08] Yume
No reason.
[21:10] Yume
It's just... Akatsuki-san and Kawanami-kun
today had me thinking.
[21:14] Yume
I wonder if there's meaning in all
that time they've spent together.
[21:18] Mizuto
All that time, huh?
[21:22] Mizuto
I'm sure those two would have
things to say about that.
[21:25] Mizuto
It's not like you and I have to go out of
our way to spend time together anyway.
[21:32] Mizuto
As long as our parents stay together, that is.
[21:37] Yume
You think they'll ever split up?
[21:41] Mizuto
Not really.
[21:43] Mizuto
I think we're stuck as stepsiblings
until the end of time.
[21:50] Yume
Kinda sucks, doesn't it?

A gifted student at the top of my year.
SIGN Midterms
[02:13] Yume
This is where I belong.
[02:18] Yume
It was my second year of middle school.
We'd just taken our first midterms.
[02:22] Yume
For the first time ever,
[02:24] Yume
I was bested on a math test,
despite it being one of my strengths...
[02:28] Yume
by a boy in my class named Irido Mizuto.
[02:33] Yume
I was devastated.
[02:35] Yume
So when it came time for finals,
[02:37] Yume
I sacrificed sleep to study
more than ever before.
[02:42] Yume
All in an effort to beat Irido Mizuto.
[02:46] Yume
Fortunately, I was able to reclaim
my spot at the top of the class.
[02:51] Yume
However, when I looked at him,
[02:52] Yume
he seemed indifferent to the
way the teacher sang my praises.
[02:57] Yume
He merely sat there,
staring blankly out the window.
[03:01] Yume
I felt hollow.
[03:03] Yume
Like I'd conjured up a rivalry out of thin air.
[03:08] Yume
And yet...
[03:10] (Flashback) Mizuto
Do you like mystery novels?
[03:12] (Flashback) Yume
I-I do...
[03:15] (Flashback) Mizuto
Now I get it. No wonder you
get such good grades in math.
[03:20] Yume
Our rivalry wasn't all in my head.
[03:23] Yume
He'd just been pretending
to look the other way,
[03:26] Yume
when, in reality,
he was watching me all along.
[03:30] Yume
And with that, for the first
time in my life, I fell in love.
[03:51] Yume
Are you sure you've done enough studying?
[03:54] Mizuto
Yeah, I think I'm ready.
[03:58] Yume
Are you?
[04:00] Yume
You act as though you're
taking a far easier test than I am.

This is why I always beat you.

Still...
[05:39] Yume
Japanese is one of his better subjects.
[05:42] Yume
If he were to get full marks, six points
would be a significant gap.
[05:48] Yume
That's assuming he gets full marks, anyway.
[05:51] Yume
And right now, I have no way of confirming.
[06:17] Yume
Why did you leave the last section blank?
[06:23] Yume
There's no way you didn't know
the answer to these questions, correct?
[06:28] Mizuto
I didn't have time.
[06:32] Yume
I saw you stop writing ten
minutes before time was up!
[06:37] Yume
Do you think I'm stupid?!
[06:39] Yume
You're holding back so I can
get the top spot, aren't you?

Did you think that'd make me happy?
Don't be ridiculous!

What was all that talk earlier?

I could call them a friend

Stop being arbitrary with the friend bar.

Stepsister, actually.
[14:56] Isana
Stepsister?!
[14:58] Mizuto
Why'd you react more to the "step" part?
[15:05] Yume
Why do I feel so uneasy?
[15:08] Yume
Could I be jealous?
[15:11] Yume
I'm not even his girlfriend anymore.

My stepsister's acting strange.
[16:07] Isana
Strange? How do you mean?
[16:10] Mizuto
She seems distant.
[16:12] Mizuto
No...
[16:13] Mizuto
More like, I don't get annoyed
when we talk anymore.
[16:16] Isana
Isn't that a good thing?
[16:18] Mizuto
It is, but it isn't.
[16:21] Isana
Why don't you just go and ask her yourself?
[16:26] Mizuto
It's a thought.
[16:28] Isana
You're quite the imbecile, Mizuto-kun.
[16:31] Isana
If you ask me, you should trust your gut.
[16:34] Isana
I'm sure you'll do the right thing.
[16:37] Mizuto
Trust my gut?
[16:39] Isana
U-Uh, scratch that!
[16:40] Isana
I'm probably the least qualified
person to be giving advice...
[16:44] Mizuto
No, please continue.
[16:46] Mizuto
I'll hear you out and decide
for myself whether I listen.
[16:54] Isana
Each and every person has their
own set of criteria, right?
[16:59] Mizuto
Criteria?
[17:02] Isana
An ideal model for how they
want their life to be or to go.
[17:08] Isana
When I feel that threatened,
I get all... up in arms, you know?
[17:14] Isana
People say I'm bad at going
with the flow, and that's why.
[17:19] Mizuto
That's it! The flow!
[17:21] Mizuto
I've just been going with the flow around her.
[17:25] Isana
Huh?
[17:26] Mizuto
Thanks, Higashira.
[17:27] Mizuto
Talking to you really helped.
[17:30] Isana
S-Sure...
[17:32] Mizuto
Also, it's important to know
how to go with the flow,
[17:34] Mizuto
but you don't have to do that around me.
[17:37] Mizuto
It'll be faster for me to just go with yours.
[17:41] Isana
Th-Thanks for that.
[17:48] Yume
This feels great.
[17:50] Yume
Who would've thought just forgetting
about him would make life so much easier?
[18:03] Yume
Huh?
[18:05] Yume
Wha...
[18:06] Yume
What?!
[18:12] Yume
Wh-What do you want?
[18:16] Yume
Huh? What's this? What gives?
[18:24] Yume
Wh-Wh-What are you—
[18:28] Mizuto
The average human heart
beats once per second.
[18:32] Mizuto
Yours, on the other hand,
is clearly beating twice that fast.
[18:37] Mizuto
Does the sight of your mere stepbrother
[18:39] Mizuto
wearing a different outfit than usual
[18:42] Mizuto
really warrant your heart racing so,
dear little sister?
[18:46] Yume
N-No fair!
[18:52] Yume
So, why are you here?
[18:55] Mizuto
I dislike the way you've been acting.
[18:57] Yume
Huh?
[18:59] Mizuto
The unreasonably calm, sincere,
and understanding attitude.
[19:03] Mizuto
Talking to you lately doesn't
irritate me in the slightest.
[19:07] Mizuto
Nary a sarcastic or snide remark.
[19:09] Mizuto
You act like picking fights is beneath you.
[19:12] Mizuto
It's infuriating on all accounts.
[19:15] Mizuto
If something's changed for you,
I want to hear about it.
[19:19] Mizuto
We're siblings, aren't we?
[19:26] Yume
Listen, Onii-chan...
[19:30] Mizuto
What's up, Little Sis?
[19:31] Yume
I think I'm jealous of that girl.
[19:37] Mizuto
That girl?
[19:39] Mizuto
You mean Higashira Isana?
[19:43] Yume
Until the very end, I always
called you by your family name.
[19:47] Yume
But she's already calling you "Mizuto."
[19:50] Yume
The more I thought about it,
the less I liked it.
[19:55] Yume
But we're siblings, so I don't
have a reason to be jealous.
[20:00] Yume
So that's why...
[20:03] Mizuto
I get it.
[20:07] Yume
Hey, can I ask you something?
[20:10] Mizuto
What is it?
[20:11] Yume
What bothered you so much about
me not being snide or sarcastic?
[20:21] Mizuto
I don't know.
[20:22] Mizuto
I didn't like you acting like what we
went through never happened, I guess.
[20:29] Yume
The relationship I so badly wanted to forget...
[20:32] Yume
was the one relationship I would
truly regret forsaking.
[20:37] Yume
You've always been able to articulate
what I could never put into words.
[20:45] Yume
So, Onii-chan... do you think it's
okay to get jealous over a sibling?
[20:51] Mizuto
No way.
[20:52] Mizuto
Getting jealous of your big brother's
friend is just plain creepy.
[20:56] Yume
Hey!
[20:57] Mizuto
But don't worry.
[20:59] Mizuto
I've known you were a
creep for over two years.
[21:04] Yume
You're the creep, Onii-chan.
[21:06] Mizuto
Hey, now you sound like a real little sister.
[21:15] Yume
Thanks for always hanging
out with Mizuto here.
[21:19] Yume
I'm his older stepsister, Irido Yume.
[21:22] Yume
Nice to meet you.
[21:23] Yume
"Mizuto," she says.
[21:25] Yume
Skipping the honorific to one-up her?
[21:27] Yume
Not to mention that smile...
[21:29] Yume
You're gonna scare Higashira right
back into her shell, you know?
[21:33] Isana
Yeah, r-right back at you.
[21:39] Isana
Wait...
[21:40] Isana
D-Did I do something weird?
[21:43] Akatsuki
Hey...
[21:45] Akatsuki
Just what kind of relationship
do you have with Irido-kun?
[21:48] Isana
Huh?
[21:49] Isana
W-We're just friends with similar interests.
[21:52] Yume
Oh... I didn't realize.
[21:55] Isana
U-Um, am I missing something here?
[22:00] Yume
Well, you see...
[22:03] Mizuto
My sister...
[22:05] Mizuto
was under the impression
that you had feelings for me.
[22:09] Isana
H-Huh?!
[22:10] Yume
Hey! Why'd you have to tell her?!
[22:13] Mizuto
I'm just telling the truth.
[22:15] Akatsuki
He's ruthless.
[22:17] Isana
Mizuto-kun.
[22:19] Isana
This is the second time in my life
that I've wished I was born a boy.
[22:25] Isana
The first time was when I got my period.
[22:28] Isana
I yearn for a body that doesn't
bleed from the nether regions.
[22:34] Mizuto
You're hearing this, right?
[22:36] Mizuto
You really think a girl would talk
like that to the guy she liked?
[22:48] Akatsuki
That said, they sure seem
to get along, don't they?
[22:51] Akatsuki
And I was all set to help her out
if she was interested in him...
[22:55] Akatsuki
You too, right?
[22:56] Yume
Of course. Assuming
she was interested, that is.
[23:01] Isana
Well, Mizuto-kun, I'm going this way.
[23:04] Mizuto
Okay. See you tomorrow, then.
[23:07] Isana
Right!
[23:09] Isana
A-A-And a-also...
[23:13] Isana
F-Farewell to you too!
[23:18] Mizuto
You did great.
[23:27] Akatsuki
So, Yume-chan...
[23:29] Akatsuki
About what you just said...
[23:31] Akatsuki
You're still game to help
Higashira-san out, right?
[23:35] Yume
Huh?

[00:01] Yume
When I made my confession...
[00:03] Yume
We'd been spending every day of summer
break together at the school library.
[00:07] Yume
On the last day before second term,
I professed my feelings in a love letter.
[00:11] Yume
It's customary to leave such letters
in the recipient's shoe cubby.
[00:17] Yume
Naturally, that was my intention.
[00:20] Yume
However, when the time finally came,
I lost my nerve.
[00:24] Yume
And before I could recover, he walked in.
[00:27] Yume
All I could do was watch as he changed shoes.
[00:31] Yume
My mind raced as we made
our way to the library together.
[00:35] Yume
"What do I do?
Should I try again tomorrow?"
[00:38] Yume
"No, I can't. This is the
last day of summer break."
SIGN Thursday, August 27th
[00:41] Yume
"If I don't tell him now,
I'll never get the chance again."
[00:44] Yume
If only I'd found my resolve sooner...
[00:50] Yume
The reason I'd defaulted
to such an old-fashioned tradition
[00:54] Yume
was simply because I hadn't the
courage to confess to him directly.
[00:58] Yume
As I waited for him to read my letter,
[01:01] Yume
I was overcome with regret and
thoughts of self-loathing.
[01:04] Yume
"This sucks. I wanna run away.
I wanna go home."
[01:07] Yume
And after what felt like an eternity,
he finally looked up and said...
[01:13] (Flashback) Mizuto
I don't think I truly deserve your affection,
[01:16] (Flashback) Mizuto
but I'm excited to be your boyfriend.
[01:19] Yume
And so, in the summer of my
second year at middle school,
[01:21] Yume
I got what you might call a boyfriend.
[01:26] Yume
Looking back, I can only describe it
as youthful indiscretion.

You want to be more than friends, don't you?

You could walk to and from school
holding hands every day.
[07:08] Yume
You could go on dates together.
[07:10] Yume
You could exchange gifts on Christmas, too!
[07:13] Yume

he could wait on you hand and foot.
[07:17] Yume
Well?! All of that could be your life!

are you still content just being friends?
[07:25] Isana

[11:21] Yume
But that isn't the case for Higashira-san.
[11:23] Yume
To her, liking someone is just
an extension of friendship.
[11:28] Yume
She doesn't believe having feelings
[11:30] Yume
for someone is a reason
to sacrifice friendship with them.
[11:34] Yume
That's who she is.
[11:37] Yume
I'm sorry, Higashira-san.
[11:40] Yume
We won't ask you to change
how you act anymore.
[11:42] Yume
I think you're better off staying
true to yourself anyway.
[11:46] Yume
Right, Akatsuki-san?
[11:47] Akatsuki
I think you're right.
[11:49] Isana
Th-That's a relief.
[11:50] Akatsuki
But the fact remains...
[11:52] Akatsuki
Your lack of confidence still
isn't doing you a ton of favors.
[11:56] Isana
My lack of confidence?
[11:58] Akatsuki
If you believed in yourself a little more,
[12:02] Akatsuki
Irido-kun would start looking
at you differently for sure.
[12:05] Akatsuki
And on that note...
[12:07] Akatsuki
It's time for Higashira-san's
special makeover!

[14:23] Isana
I can't confess. It's too soon!
[14:26] Yume
Maybe we should give her a
little more time, Akatsuki-san.
[14:31] Yume
I'm sure she needs to prepare mentally.
[14:33] Isana
Sh-She's right! I'm not prepared at all!
[14:36] Akatsuki
Then prepare yourself right now.

[14:50] Akatsuki
The longer you put it off,
the harder it'll be.
[14:54] Akatsuki
If you let him view you as a
friend for months or years,
[14:57] Akatsuki
he'll be way more put off when
you do make the confession!

That's why your chances of success

[15:22] Yume
He seems to enjoy spending
time with you, Higashira-san.
[15:26] Yume
So if you said you wanted to spend more
time together, I doubt he'd refuse.
[15:32] Isana
You think so?

I do.

Well, Yume-chan,

are you excited that your stepbrother's
about to get a girlfriend?
[16:09] Yume
You think he'll say yes?
[16:12] Akatsuki
Don't you? I mean, that's the typical thing.
[16:15] Akatsuki
But I guess Irido-kun
isn't your typical guy, huh?
[16:19] Yume
He's not?
[16:20] Akatsuki
Yeah. If I had one worry,
I guess it'd be that.
[16:24] Akatsuki
Like whether he sees any value
in getting a girlfriend or not.
[16:28] Akatsuki
I guess he probably doesn't.

Sure.
[17:51] Isana
S-So... you know...
[17:54] Isana
Th-There's something I wanted
to tell you, Mizuto-kun.

[18:04] Isana
Y-Yes?!
[18:06] Mizuto
Just tell me what you have to say at your
own pace. In whatever order you'd like.
[18:10] Mizuto
I can put the pieces together from there.
[18:16] Isana
Do you remember when we first met at the
library and you came up to talk to me?
[18:23] Isana
That made me so happy.
[18:25] Isana
And not just because I'd met someone
who shared similar interests.
[18:29] Isana
But because when we spoke, you actually
seemed to enjoy talking to me.
[18:34] Isana
People have always told me that
I'm weird, annoying, and a freak.
[18:40] Isana
So truly, deeply...
[18:42] Isana
I was so happy to have someone actually
listen to me when I ramble.
[18:46] Isana
Not only that, but for the first time ever,
someone actually responded to me.
[18:53] Isana
It's been so much fun.
[18:56] Isana
So I wanna spend more time with you.
[18:58] Isana
I wanna spend all my time with you.
[19:03] Isana
So... please let me be your girlfriend.
[19:10] Isana
I like you.
[19:18] Mizuto
You always told me you saw me as a friend.
[19:20] Isana
Th-That hasn't changed!
[19:23] Isana
I like you as a friend too.
[19:25] Mizuto
I enjoy spending time
with you too, Higashira.
[19:29] Mizuto
You're the first person I've ever met
that I've clicked with so effortlessly.
[19:34] Mizuto
So if we were to date, there's no
doubt in my mind that we'd be happy.
[19:40] Mizuto
Sure, we'd still fight.
[19:42] Mizuto
Knowing us, we'd likely forget all about it
while discussing some new book.
[19:48] Mizuto
But I'm sorry.
[19:52] Mizuto
I'm sorry, but I can't go out with you.
[19:56] Isana
Wh-Why?
[19:59] Mizuto
I'm selfish.
[20:01] Mizuto
I can't be attentive to more
than one person at a time.
[20:05] Mizuto
And the one slot that I have...
[20:07] Mizuto
It's already occupied by someone else,
even though she doesn't deserve it.
[20:12] Mizuto
And I know in my heart
[20:15] Mizuto
that despite having no obligation to her,
I still can't bear to see her cry.
[20:21] Mizuto
So I'll apologize again and again.
[20:23] Mizuto
I'm sorry.
[20:24] Mizuto
I'm doing you a disservice by using someone
else to turn you down, and I apologize.
[20:29] Mizuto
But it's not your fault at all.
[20:31] Mizuto
There's no one else to blame either.
[20:33] Mizuto
This is on me.
[20:35] Mizuto
These are just feelings I know I
have that I simply cannot deny.
[20:40] Mizuto
So I'm sorry, Higashira, but I...
[20:44] Mizuto
I can't be your boyfriend.
[20:51] Akatsuki
So if a guy like him were to get a girlfriend...
[20:55] Akatsuki
since he wouldn't be doing it
for pride or status,
[20:59] Akatsuki
it'd have to be someone he just wants
to have by his side that badly.
[21:05] Yume
Even though it's obvious you'd
be better off with her than me...
[21:12] Yume
Even though I'm nothing but
a stepsister to you now...
[21:18] Yume
Why are you letting someone who isn't
even your girlfriend anymore
[21:23] Yume
be the one by your side?
[23:03] Akatsuki
Well, explain yourself!
[23:05] Isana
Explain what?
[23:07] Yume
This, of course.

Hush now.

There's no need to question it.
[00:18] Isana
It's simply an innate desire.

I wish to see your collection

[00:24] Isana
If you must twist my arm,

You know those racy light novels
everyone hides from their parents.
[00:40] Isana
You must have at least one hidden away

[00:44] Isana
Ow!
[00:46] Isana
Could you be a little gentler
when you touch me?
[00:49] Isana
It'll feel better for both of us that way.

You're being way more of a
pain in the neck than usual.
[00:56] Isana
Oh, so you've decided to feel me up
with your eyes instead, have you?
[01:00] Isana
I suppose I'll allow it.
[01:02] Isana
You may imagine me naked too,
if you so desire.

I'm about ready to end this "friend" thing.
[01:07] Isana
I was only kidding!

I'll stop making dirty jokes, okay?!
[01:10] Isana
I'm sorry!
[01:11] Isana
I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

I feel like my innocence will be
in jeopardy if I let you come over.
[01:19] Mizuto
Fear not.
[01:20] Mizuto
I'll release all my sexual tension beforehand.
[01:28] Isana
Well, all joking aside...
[01:29] Isana
You seem like the type to hold
on to older light novels,
[01:33] Isana
so I was hoping I could come borrow some.
[01:35] Mizuto
That's fine by me.
[01:37] Mizuto
But it means coming over
to a guy's house alone, no?
[01:41] Mizuto
Won't that put you on edge?
[01:43] Isana
Hmm?
[01:44] Isana
You turned me down the other day,
proving your lack of interest.
[01:47] Isana
What's there to be on edge about?

It softens your silhouette.

Try pairing a loose-fitting top

[07:05] Akatsuki
Something like that might just
be enough to hide your sexy bod.

Hmm, that's true.

But then I guess you'd be copying

And it's bad to copy someone else?

So if Yume-chan switches up her style,
it'd be a totally different story!

Huh? M-Me?

Whoa! I would be honored to behold

I've avoided tight clothing for so long...
[07:54] Yume
Looking back, I can only describe
it as youthful indiscretion.
[07:58] Yume
But from my second to third
year of middle school,
[08:02] Yume
I had what you might call a boyfriend.
[08:05] Yume
Given how categorically
unsophisticated I was back then,
[08:09] Yume
not to mention my peerless inelegance,
[08:12] Yume
there was one matter I needed
to address with all haste.
[08:16] Yume
That's right. My sense of fashion.
[08:19] Yume
After foolishly promising
to meet up on the weekend,
[08:22] Yume
I was left anxiously scratching my head.

I groaned over every option
until the very last minute.
[08:32] Yume
When the day finally came,
[08:34] Yume
I managed to find an outfit I was
satisfied with and set out to meet him.
[08:38] Yume
But when I arrived at our
arranged meeting spot, that boy...
[08:42] Yume
He had no reaction. No comment.
[08:45] Yume
He was utterly unfazed.
[08:47] Yume
He offered no commentary on my
attire as the date went on, either.
[08:51] Yume
Thus I concluded...
[08:53] Yume
I must have looked so lame that he
was avoiding the subject for my sake.
[08:56] Yume
Yet just when it seemed we
were about to go our separate ways,
[09:01] Yume
he said something out of the blue...
[09:03] (Flashback) Mizuto
Your outfit today... It's cute.
[09:07] Yume
He must have been too embarrassed
to compliment me sooner.
[09:11] Yume
Yet then he went on to say...
[09:14] (Flashback) Mizuto
But, um, I'd appreciate it if you
didn't wear miniskirts outside.
[09:20] (Flashback) Mizuto
I wouldn't mind any other time, though...
[09:25] Yume
He wouldn't mind any other time?
[09:27] Yume
So it'd be okay if we were indoors?
[09:30] Yume
Why can't I wear them outside?
[09:32] Yume
Is it because we're in public?
[09:34] Yume
Because other people are around?
[09:36] Yume
I was happy that someone
so seemingly unattached
[09:40] Yume
had finally shown a glimpse
of possessiveness toward me.
[09:45] Yume
Overcome with joy, I was nothing
but smiles the whole way home.
[09:49] Yume
And from that point on,
[09:52] Yume
my sense of style was wholly dictated by
my thirst for Irido Mizuto's approval.

What on earth was I thinking back then?!

How do I look?
[10:10] Isana
You look so chic!
[10:12] Yume
I think I'm kinda into it.

Your stunning legs are
finally in the spotlight!
[10:17] Akatsuki
There aren't many girls who can pull
off white skinny jeans, you know?
[10:22] Yume
I guess it's about time I stopped relying on
my middle school fashion sense anyway.
[10:30] Yume
I'll go ask a sales rep to remove the tags.
[10:34] Akatsuki
My dreams are finally coming to fruition.
[10:36] Akatsuki
All right! You're up, Higashira-san!
[10:38] Isana
Huh? U-Uh... Right.
[10:44] Isana
Isn't this a little too cutesy for me?

[11:44] Mizuto
But from my second to third
year of middle school,
[11:47] Mizuto
I had what you might call a girlfriend.

simply put, books.

This is the book I've been looking for!

I have that entire series at home, by the way.

Huh? Really?

Yup.

Okay. Thank you.
[12:32] Mizuto
We chickened out. Why, you ask?

Because we were dating.

Yeah, haven't we always been like this?
[15:53] Yume
Oh, I've got it!
[15:55] Yume
Neither of you have ever had friends,
[15:58] Yume
so you have no concept
of personal boundaries!
[16:01] Yume
Mystery solved.
[16:02] Isana
That's rude.
[16:04] Isana
We've had at least one
or two friends, you know?
[16:06] Mizuto
She's right. At least one or two.
[16:12] Isana
Well, everyone has different
personal boundaries, right?
[16:15] Mizuto
Exactly. Friendship looks
different for everyone.
[16:19] Yume
I-In any case...
[16:21] Yume
Just stop getting touchy-feely on the bed.
[16:23] Isana
Goodness me.
[16:24] Isana
It must be hard dealing with such a
possessive little sister, Mizuto-kun.
[16:28] Mizuto
Yeah, it's a real pain.
[16:30] Yume
I'm not possessive,
and I'm not his little sister!
[16:32] Isana
Well, anyways...
[16:34] Isana
Could you put my socks on for me, Mizuto-kun?
[16:37] Mizuto
Yeah, yeah.
[16:38] Yume
Hold it!
[16:39] Yume
Why can't you put your socks on yourself?

Well, about that...

Bending over is such a struggle

[17:07] Yume
So do you still have feelings for
him after all, Higashira-san?
[17:11] Isana
Of course I do.
[17:14] Isana
The possibility of dating him wasn't
why I liked him in the first place.
[17:21] Isana
I don't think I'll ever stop
liking him, for that matter.
[17:25] Isana
As a friend or as a boy.
[17:27] Yume
Isn't that... hard for you?
[17:30] Isana
I wonder...
[17:32] Isana
I think I'd find it hard to adjust
if he got a girlfriend.
[17:35] Isana
But when I think about it, I'm sure I'd
be more jealous if he made a new friend.
[17:41] Yume
Huh?
[17:42] Isana
I'm the one Mizuto-kun
enjoys talking to the most.
[17:47] Isana
It's like some territorial instinct
starts to well up inside me.
[17:51] Isana
Wouldn't you feel the same, Yume-san?
[17:53] Isana
How would you feel if some long-lost sister
walked into his life out of the blue?
[18:00] Yume
Well...
[18:02] Isana
I'm afraid.
[18:04] Isana
Mizuto-kun is the only friend I have.
[18:07] Isana
If he suddenly got more friends who
filled the same role, I'd just...
[18:13] Yume
It's not that she wants him all to herself.
[18:17] Yume
She just can't bear the thought of
losing her unique place in his heart.

Probably as much as you do, if not more.
[18:46] Isana
So... where's the bathroom?

Huh?
[20:24] Mizuto
How'd that come up?
[20:25] Isana
Well, they asked me if we were dating,
[20:28] Isana
so I told them you'd turned me down a
while back and that we're just friends now.
[20:31] Isana
So suddenly, I was your ex.
[20:35] Mizuto
Listen, they're gonna misunderstand
if you word it like that.
[20:39] Isana
Well, I couldn't just say it, you know?
[20:43] Isana
I couldn't handle explaining
[20:45] Isana
that you'd said no when I confessed,
and that we'd never really dated.
[20:51] Isana
Mizuto-kun... I still haven't fully
recovered from that, you know?
[20:57] Mizuto
I see.
[20:59] Isana
So don't forget to console
me whenever you can, okay?
[21:06] Mizuto
You're right.
[21:09] Isana
Staying home and reading books all day

Yeah.
[21:17] Mizuto
I'm sure the time I spent silently
reading books with Ayai Yume

You're a good friend.
[21:34] Mizuto
So if we'd never dated...
[21:39] Isana
Well then, I shall take my leave.
[21:44] Mizuto
If we'd never gotten together...
[21:48] Mizuto
If we had just stayed
moderately close friends...
[21:52] Mizuto
I wonder if we'd still be spending
time together like we did back then.
[21:57] Mizuto
But hypothesizing about it's pointless.
[22:00] Mizuto

[22:02] Mizuto
Neither of us could ever
be like Higashira Isana.

It'd be easier to pick
a story I've already read.
[10:46] Girl
I'll go have a look for it!
[10:47] Girl
Well, thanks a ton!
[10:49] Mizuto
Sure.
[11:07] Mizuto
Ayai...
[11:13] Mizuto
I'm sorry for being so mean to you yesterday.
[11:20] Mizuto
I can explain.
[11:24] Mizuto
It just felt like you were getting
further and further away from me.
[11:29] Mizuto
Once you made friends, you started
spending so much time with other people.
[11:33] Mizuto
I was happy for you at first.
But then gradually...
[11:38] Mizuto
I started wishing I could
keep you all to myself.
[11:43] Mizuto
I'm really sorry.
[11:45] Mizuto
I hope you can forgive me.
[11:47] Yume
So you don't like it when I
spend time with other people,
[11:51] Yume
but it's okay for you
to be with other girls?
[11:54] Mizuto
Huh?
[11:55] Yume
You were talking to another
girl just now, weren't you?
[11:58] Yume
You even let her sit in my seat!
[12:02] Mizuto
She needed help choosing a book,
so I was just lending an ear.
[12:06] Yume
She's the girl you were secretly talking
to the day I got here late, isn't she?
[12:11] Mizuto
This is the first time we've ever spoken.
[12:13] Yume
You're cheating, aren't you?!
[12:15] Mizuto
Huh?
[12:21] Mizuto
Do I really deserve to be berated
with such baseless accusations?
[12:27] Yume
Why here?
[12:29] Yume
How could you do something so heartless?
[12:32] Yume
This is where we first met, isn't it?
[12:36] Yume
How could you do it where we've
made so many memories together?!
[12:39] Mizuto
I'm telling you I didn't cheat!
[12:44] Mizuto
Sorry.
[12:46] Mizuto
But I'm telling you the truth.
SIGN My Stepmom's Daughter Is My Ex
[13:03] Yume
I now know that it was
just a misunderstanding.
[13:06] Yume
Even at the time, I probably
knew that deep down.
[13:10] Yume
Even so, the impression
it left on me lingers.
[13:15] Yume
The wound it carved into my heart remains.
[13:19] Yume
"In a place full of shared memories, the
person I trusted most betrayed that trust."
[13:25] Yume
The mere thought of it tainted those
memories as well as my feelings for him.
[13:38] Mizuto
It had nothing to do with Ayai.
[13:41] Mizuto
I was just acting out of a childish
sense of pride and jealousy.
[13:45] Mizuto
But still, I just couldn't stand it.
[13:49] Yume
So, I was telling one of my friends
about you earlier today...
[13:53] Mizuto
I was convinced she was taking pity on me.
[13:56] Mizuto
And she was the last person I ever
wanted to have treating me that way.
[14:00] Mizuto
But looking back on it now,
[14:03] Mizuto
I'm sure she was just trying to
be considerate in her own way.
[14:07] Mizuto
If the reason we grew
apart was her making friends,
[14:09] Mizuto
all I had to do was join her friend group
and it would've been fine.
[14:15] Mizuto
I know that. I understood that.
[14:19] Mizuto
I should have just bottled up my
feelings and gone along with it.
[14:23] Mizuto
I should've chosen my words more carefully.
[14:28] Mizuto
Deep down... I knew that all along.

[15:23] Mizuto
Don't you think we should try to make up?
[15:25] Mizuto
It's just been awkward
seeing each other at school.
[15:29] Mizuto
I apologize for what happened
in the library, okay?
[15:34] Yume
Okay.
[15:39] Mizuto
If I hadn't broken the silence,
[15:41] Mizuto
how was Ayai planning
on keeping up our relationship?
[15:47] Yume
Why won't Irido-kun walk alongside me?
[15:53] Mizuto
I even apologized after such
a ludicrous accusation.
[15:57] Mizuto
So why hasn't she uttered
one word of remorse to me?
[16:02] Mizuto
And when the reconciliation
is so superficial...
[16:07] Yume
Have we... even really made up?

In the end, I couldn't bring
myself to invite him.
[16:55] Yume
But since we'd reconciled, I thought
he might just be there anyway.
[17:01] Yume
That he would come find me,
like he'd done the year before.
[17:06] Yume
I hung tight to that naïve delusion.
[17:10] Yume
I'd known this would happen.
[17:13] Yume
Yet I still waited, clinging
to a glimmer of hope.
[17:17] Yume
It was silly of me to expect
things to just work out like that.
[17:23] Yume
If I had really wanted to reconcile,
[17:26] Yume
I should have communicated
that to him myself.
[17:30] Yume
If only we hadn't had that fight, we could
have come here together like last time.

Let's break up.
[20:34] Yume
Yeah.
[20:39] Mizuto
When both Christmas and Valentine's
passed by without any contact,
[20:43] Mizuto
I was certain we could never
go back to the way things were.
[20:47] Mizuto
So I broke up with her.
[20:52] Mizuto
I realized feelings of love and
hatred were at odds within me.
[20:59] Mizuto
And though they contradicted each other,
[21:03] Mizuto
both my affection and resentment
for her were undeniable.
[21:07] Mizuto
A reality I couldn't ignore.
[21:09] Mizuto
It was agony.
[21:12] Mizuto
I was in pain.
[21:14] Mizuto
I was miserable.
[21:17] Mizuto
And the strife caused by those opposing
emotions slowly ate away at me.
[21:23] Mizuto
So it wasn't the end
of a relationship for me.
[21:27] Mizuto
It was a liberation.
[21:34] Mizuto
And yet, not long after...

[22:23] Mizuto

pretense that you'd be home alone!
[22:28] Yume
Then you had me sit on

What?!

Why are you surprised?
It's just what you accused me of!

Wh-What's this about "resolve"?!
You "wimped out" of what exactly?!
[22:53] Yume
I came here that day
completely ready for it!
[22:57] Mizuto
Huh?
[22:58] Mizuto
Wait! I backed off because you
seemed so apprehensive about it!
[23:03] Yume
You listen here!
That was nervous excitement!
[23:06] Mizuto
What?!
[23:08] Mizuto
Lies! You're telling me you were
down for it the whole time?!
[23:11] Yume
Of course I was!
[23:13] Yume
I came here excited to make the
memory of a lifetime with you!
[23:17] Mizuto
R-Really?
[23:19] Mizuto
So I spent ages plagued
with regret for nothing...
[23:23] Yume
That's my line!
[23:24] Yume
I wasted so much time
convinced I was undesirable.
[23:27] Yume
Give it back!
[23:28] Mizuto
Like I care!
[23:29] Mizuto
It's your fault for looking frozen stiff!
[23:32] Yume
No, it's your fault for wimping out.

Pretty much all there is to do

[05:32] Mineaki

[05:35] Mizuto
Pass. I'm just going to read
like I normally do.
[05:38] Yume
I'll probably do the same.
[05:40] Yuni
Aw, but playing in the river's fun!
[05:43] Yuni
Why don't you go buy a swimsuit, Yume?
[05:45] Yuni
And bring Mizuto-kun along!
[05:46] Yume
B-But why?!
[05:48] Yuni
I mean, the only one you have
is your school swimsuit, right?
[05:52] Yuni
Plus, you've gotten bigger recently,
so it probably doesn't fit you anymore.
[05:55] Yume
Hey— Mom, please!
[05:57] Yume
Anyway, I was asking why
I have to take Mizuto-kun.
[06:01] Yuni
What? You don't want him to tag along?
[06:05] Yume
I, um... I didn't say that...
[06:11] Yuni
Then you two had better get going!
[06:26] Yume
Sorry for the wait.
[06:28] Mizuto
Why are you wearing glasses?
[06:31] Yume
I'm in disguise.
[06:32] Yume
It'll be a pain if someone we
know spots us while we're out.
[06:36] Yume
Here. Wear this.
[06:37] Mizuto
Hmm?
[06:38] Yume
You've been getting more popular at school
since taking the top score in our class.
[06:43] Yume
You'll be harder to spot with this on.
[06:45] Mizuto
You're acting like we're celebrities.
[06:48] Yume
Well, if you don't mind the onslaught
of rumors about us dating
[06:51] Yume
when we go back to school,
[06:53] Yume
then I suppose you don't have to wear it.
[06:57] Mizuto
Fine.
[07:05] Yume
And these too.
[07:07] Mizuto
Huh?
[07:08] Yume
For your disguise.
[07:10] Yume
See? I'm wearing them too.
[07:12] Mizuto
No thanks.
[07:13] Yume
Why not?!
[07:14] Yume
You'd look cool...
[07:30] Mizuto
Why am I even here?
[07:32] Yume
Hey.

Hmm? What is it?
[07:36] Yume
There's no one around, is there?
[07:39] Mizuto
Nope.

Could you just pick one already?
[07:44] Yume
Could I show you?

What was that? Don't you, you know...
[08:26] Yume

[08:29] Mizuto
Huh?
[08:34] Mizuto
You're asking that...
[08:38] Mizuto

You're really devoted to your family, I guess.

Huh?
[08:49] Yume
Why bring that up?
[08:52] Mizuto
What else can I say?!
[08:53] Mizuto
I can't just compliment
how you look without... you know?
[09:01] Yume
Y-You idiot!
[09:02] Yume
I didn't mean me! I m-meant the swimsuit!
[09:05] Yume
Like if this color suits me at all!
[09:07] Yume
Or if I look cute in this style!
That kind of thing!
[09:10] Mizuto
Wait, huh? That's what you meant?
[09:12] Yume
I n-never asked you to compliment me!
[09:19] Yume
I'll go with this one.
[09:22] Mizuto
You like it?
[09:23] Yume
Y-Yes, I like it. It's for me.
[09:30] Yume
I have to admit I've always appreciated how
willing you are to keep someone company.
[09:35] Mizuto
Why, thank you.
[09:37] Mizuto
Although I had to for your sake today,
Miss Family-Comes-First.
[09:41] Yume
Huh?
[09:43] Mizuto
Dad suggested it. Then Yuni-san pushed
for it, so you couldn't say no, right?
[09:49] Yume
I guess not.
[09:50] Mizuto
It's a kid's job to assuage
their parent's worries, after all.
[09:55] Yume
That's an odd way of putting it.
[09:58] Yume
I am pleased I got
a swimsuit out of it, though.
[10:02] Mizuto
That's good.
[10:03] Yume
I got to see you ogle me too.
[10:07] Mizuto
You were the one trying to show off.

Oh, give me a break!
[11:48] Yume

[11:50] Yume

I'm sorry, honey.
[11:56] Yuni
I'm just not used to seeing you get

joke about us being a couple

means they genuinely regard us as siblings.

Oh, yeah, you must be so hot.
[12:44] Yume
Of course you'd want to unzip.
[12:46] Yume
But what's this little arrangement?!
[12:48] Yume
I can see your bra strap,
not to mention your crazy cleavage.
[12:51] Yume
That reminds me. What happened
to the clothes we bought you?
[12:54] Yume
And what's with you pulling the zipper
so that it just reveals your chest?
[12:58] Yume
You clearly did that on purpose.
[13:02] Yume
You're kidding, right?!
[13:03] Yume
I get it.
[13:04] Yume
I know it gets all sweaty and itchy,
[13:07] Yume
but you're just gonna scratch it?!
Like this?!
[13:10] Yume
Just how comfortable are they?
[13:11] Yume
That's what's going on.
[13:13] Yume**
Even if he poked her chest on purpose,
[13:16] Yume
she'd be all like, "That tickles!"
And that'd be that.
[13:19] Yume
Any minute now...
[13:20] Yume
"Wanna go ahead and get married?"
[13:22] Yume
"Sure thing."
[13:23] Yume
That's how cozy these two are acting!

[13:40] Isana
What did you think?
[13:41] Mizuto
It was interesting.
[13:43] Isana
Which part?
[13:45] Mizuto
The first thing that caught my eye
was how they depicted the scenery.
[13:49] Mizuto
But the structure of the narrative
piqued my interest
[13:52] Mizuto
with the reveal of the main twist
at the midway point.
[13:55] Mizuto
It felt like the director's fetishes
were front and center in the details,
[14:00] Mizuto
but overall, the film had a
Hollywood-esque sophistication to it.
[14:05] Mizuto
All that combined gave it
an indescribable charm.
[14:09] Isana
I feel you on the fetishy part!
[14:12] Isana
Wasn't it great how he fondled
his boobs every time without fail?
[14:17] Mizuto
That's a gender swap movie
trope though, isn't it?
[14:20] Mizuto
As far as I know, gender swap
movies are a pretty niche genre.
[14:25] Mizuto
Why is this one masquerading
as a mainstream feature?
[14:28] Yume
I was too distracted with you to
watch the movie, Higashira-san.
[14:29] Isana
I think it's awesome that a mainstream movie
is openly flaunting such a blatant fetish!
[14:34] Mizuto
It is pretty amazing.
[14:36] Mizuto
I guess fetishes inevitably
manifest in creative works.
[14:40] Isana
It rules when you can
read a creator like that.
[14:43] Isana
You can't help but feel
more in tune with them!
[14:46] Yume
Their conversations are nothing
but gobbledygook to me.
[14:49] Mizuto
I'm thirsty. Pour me some.
[14:52] Yume
Yeah, yeah.
[14:53] Yume
You all right with this cup?
[14:55] Yume
I can't be bothered to go get another one.
[14:57] Mizuto
Sure.
[15:03] Mizuto
I'm beat.
[15:05] Yume
You're tired after watching a two-hour movie?
[15:07] Yume
Have you no stamina at all?
[15:09] Mizuto
I rarely watch animated movies,
[15:11] Mizuto
but this one really exceeded
my expectations.
[15:15] Mizuto
Hmm? What's wrong?
[15:17] Isana
Um... Well...
[15:21] Isana
That was an indirect kiss
just now, wasn't it?
[15:28] Isana
Huh? That's it?
[15:30] Isana
It doesn't faze you at all?
[15:32] Isana
Is it just like that with family?
[15:34] Isana
Or is it normal for high schoolers?
[15:40] Isana
Oh? You really are sleepy.
[15:44] Isana
Allow me to return the favor.
[15:46] Isana
Now it's my turn to be the pillow.
[15:50] Mizuto
Okay, then...
[15:51] Yume
Hold it right there! Stop, stop!
[15:52] Yume
You can't do that!
[15:54] Yume
You just... You can't do that!
[15:56] Mizuto
Why not?
[15:57] Isana
Yeah, why not?
[15:58] Yume
I mean, you know...
[16:00] Isana
You'd be lying on a genuine high
school girl's lap, you know?
[16:03] Isana
My G-cups look pretty sweet from below too.
[16:06] Isana
I could even clean your
ears for you if you'd like.
[16:10] Isana
A special offer for my favorite customer...
[16:13] Yume
Could you not make it sound so suspicious?
[16:16] Mizuto
Getting my ears cleaned by you sounds scary...
[16:21] Isana
Huh?
[16:25] Isana
Does this mean
[16:27] Isana
he didn't like the idea of me cleaning
his ears, so he went to you instead?
[16:32] Yume
I guess.
[16:34] Isana
Excuse me a minute.
[16:36] Isana
Do I really seem that incompetent to you?
[16:39] Yume
Yup.
[16:41] Isana
I'm shocked!
[16:44] Isana
I guess you can't stay mad
at that adorable sleeping face.
[16:50] Yume
She must really like him, huh?
[16:53] Isana
Now that I'm here...
[16:55] Isana
should I go ahead and clean his ears?
[16:57] Yume
Er, I don't think so.
[16:59] Yume
Aren't you scared to go poking
around in someone else's ear?
[17:03] Isana
Ah, I feel that.
[17:04] Isana
I was kind of scared
when my mom did it for me.
[17:08] Isana
It's like, would you mind not
snooping around in my ears?
[17:14] Yume
Exactly.
[17:16] Isana
In that case, maybe I'll kiss him instead.
[17:18] Yume
Right...
[17:20] Yume
Huh?
[17:21] Yume
Higashira-san?
[17:22] Yume
Did you say "kiss" just now?
[17:24] Isana
He'd be none the wiser if I did.
[17:27] Yume
Wait, are you serious?
[17:29] Yume
I'm right here, you know?
[17:33] Isana
I guess so.
[17:34] Isana
Maybe I should wait for
more favorable circumstances.
[17:38] Isana
It'd be my first kiss, after all.
[17:40] Yume
Even more reason not to do it now.
[17:42] Yume
You should really treasure such things.
[17:46] Isana
But if there's anyone I want to
do it with, it'd be Mizuto-kun.
[17:51] Yume
I'm surprised you're able to restrain
yourself while thinking that.
[17:54] Isana
I am trying my best to hold back, you know?
[17:57] Isana
I honestly feel like I'm gonna explode
whenever he ruffles up my hair.
[18:03] Isana
I finally get what's going through
a light novel heroine's head
[18:06] Isana
when her cheeks get all flushed and red.
[18:08] Isana
The all-ages version of a game is plenty fun,
[18:11] Isana
but if you're gonna play, you'd rather
have the 18+ original, you know?
[18:16] Isana
Since we're just buddies, there's only
so much we can do together.
[18:23] Isana
That's just how it is.
[18:25] Isana
Though adding a certain four-letter word
before "buddies" would solve the problem...
[18:31] Yume
Hold it.
[18:32] Yume
If that's what you're going for,
I can't support you.
[18:36] Isana
Don't worry. I understand.
[18:38] Isana
Accepting a friend with benefits would be
out-of-character behavior for Mizuto-kun.
[18:42] Yume
I thought you were trying
to be coy with the wording...
[18:46] Isana
Getting to discuss this stuff with the
hot model student is quite a turn-on.
[18:51] Yume
You're disgusting.
[18:53] Isana
Well, I'm gonna head home now.
[18:56] Yume
O-Okay.
[18:59] Isana
It was a pleasure to unlock so many
unique character images today.
[19:03] Isana
Like the one of Mizuto-kun's sleeping face.
[19:05] Isana
And of him lying on
his brother-obsessed sister.
[19:08] Yume
I-I'm not obsessed!
[19:25] Yume
Irido-kun...
[19:34] Yume
I finally understand why you hesitated then.
[19:39] Yume
When reminiscing about the past
and longing to go back to how things were,
[19:44] Yume
you start wishing to relive things together.
[19:46] Yume
But that's nothing more
than lingering feelings.
[19:50] Yume
And acting on those feelings isn't
worth the destruction it would mean
[19:54] Yume
for our new life together.
[19:57] Yume
The fact that we broke up and the
fact that we became stepsiblings...
[20:00] Yume
Neither thing can be erased.

Hey, hey! Yume!

What's really going on between
Higashira-san and Mizuto-kun?
[20:16] Yume
What do you mean?
[20:18] Yuni
I mean, you know?
[20:19] Yuni
She's been coming over all the time,
even though it's summer break.
[20:22] Yume
Oh...
[20:24] Yume
I think they just enjoy each other's company.
[20:26] Yuni
They really do, don't they?
[20:28] Yuni
She did tell me she was his ex...
[20:30] Yuni
But maybe she's just hiding the fact
that they're dating because she's shy!
[20:34] Yume
Who knows?
[20:35] Yume
Well, they did watch another
movie together today.
[20:38] Yuni
My goodness!
[20:39] Yuni
And? What then?
[20:40] Yuni
What do you mean? That's the end.
[20:43] Yuni
What?
[20:44] Yuni
Can't you, you know, give me any details?
[20:47] Yuni
Like, did anything happen?
[20:49] Yume
Um...
[20:51] Yume
She had her head in his lap at one point.
[20:54] Yuni
Whoa!
[20:55] Yume
And then he started stroking her head.
[21:00] Yume
She even got itchy and started
scratching around in her bra.
[21:05] Yume
And right in front of us like it was nothing!
[21:11] Yuni
Like a couple who've lived
together for three years?
[21:13] Yume
Aren't they?
[21:16] Yuni
But still, don't you think
they kind of suit each other?
[21:19] Yuni
Mizuto-kun has a mysterious
quality to him too, right?
[21:22] Yuni
I think he'd do well with
a free-spirited girl like her, no?
[21:26] Yume
It all depends on how
you look at it, I guess.
[21:28] Yuni
You'd better keep your wits about you, Yume!
[21:31] Yume
What?
[21:32] Yuni
You've gotta find yourself a nice boyfriend,
[21:34] Yuni
or else Mizuto-kun's gonna leave you behind.
[21:37] Yume
Oh, uh... Yeah.
[21:40] Yuni
I mean, just look at how cute you've gotten.
[21:42] Yuni
I'm sure you'll have one in no time!
[21:46] Yume
I don't see it as a competition.
[21:49] Yume
You'll just have to wait.
[21:50] Yuni
Aw...
[21:55] Yume
I don't see myself with
anyone other than Mizuto.
[22:05] Yume
Did I really say that just now?

It's true! Mizuto's been such a gentleman.

Right, Yume?

Hey, Mizuto-kun! It's been too long!

[04:26] Madoka
What a relief. I see you're
still a man of few words.
[04:30] Madoka
I wasn't sure what I'd do if you'd decided
to reinvent yourself as a high schooler.
[04:34] Mizuto
High school isn't the time
to go reinventing yourself.
[04:38] Madoka
Wow, harsh.
[04:41] Mineaki
Yuni-san, Yume-chan,
allow me to introduce you.
[04:44] Mineaki
These are my uncle's grandchildren.
[04:46] Mineaki
I guess that'd make them your

Do you mean what I think you mean?!
[07:31] Yume
N-No way! Absolutely not!
[07:33] Madoka
That reaction makes it
even more suspicious!
[07:35] Yume
I'm telling you the truth.
[07:40] Madoka
I feel a little left out, though.
[07:42] Madoka
He never seemed to want to open up to me.

Really? I had no idea.
[07:47] Madoka
It's true!

Huh?!

We haven't gotten in the water yet!
[08:16] Mizuto
I'll pass!

Unbelievable! How can you come
to the river and not even swim?
[08:22] Madoka
At the very least, I'm not letting

What?
[08:26] Madoka
Off with you!
[08:26] Yume
M-Madoka-san, sto—

[08:30] Madoka
Time to settle our tummies
with a little swimming!
[08:48] Madoka
Oh, Yume-chan.
[08:50] Madoka
Go get some rest once
you're done with those, okay?
[08:52] Yume
Are you sure?
[08:54] Madoka
This lot isn't going to bed any time soon.
[08:57] Yume
Duly noted.
[08:58] Madoka
Oh, could you let Mizuto-kun know
it's his turn in the bath?
[09:02] Madoka
He's probably in Great-Grandpa's study.
[09:30] Mizuto
Oh, it's you. What's up?
[09:32] Yume
It's your turn to take a bath.
[09:34] Mizuto

[09:38] Yume
You're not going to use a bookmark?
[09:41] Mizuto
No need. I remember the whole story anyway.
[09:43] Yume
Huh?
[09:45] Mizuto
You won't find this book anywhere else, see.
SIGN The Siberian Dancing Girl
[09:47] Mizuto
I reread it every time we come back here.
[09:50] Yume
"The Siberian Dancing Girl"?
[09:53] Mizuto
It's my great-granddad's autobiography.
[09:56] Yume
Wow, his autobiography?
[09:57] Yume
Wait...
[09:59] Mizuto
He published it himself.
[10:01] Mizuto
Well, it was never sold or distributed,
so I guess it's just a hand-bound book.
[10:05] Mizuto
Pretty weird hobby, huh?
[10:08] Mizuto
I'd just started elementary school when
I first stumbled upon it in this study.
[10:13] Mizuto
There's no author listed, so it struck
me as mysterious, you know?
[10:17] Mizuto
I couldn't help but open it.
SIGN The Siberian Dancing Girl
[10:20] Mizuto
I've read it every year since.
[10:23] Yume
Is it really that interesting?
[10:25] Mizuto
It was full of words I didn't know,
[10:27] Mizuto
so it was largely impenetrable
to me at the time.
[10:30] Mizuto
And yet, for whatever reason,
I read it through to the end.
SIGN The Siberian Dancing Girl
[10:34] Mizuto
It was the first story that I
ever read all by myself.
[10:38] Yume
The first story you read by yourself...
[10:42] Mizuto
The Siberian Internment.
[10:43] Mizuto
After the war, he was held captive in
the Soviet Union for three or four years.
[10:49] Mizuto
This book is about his time there.
[10:52] Yume
So who's the "dancing girl"?
[10:54] Mizuto
Remember Mori Ogai?
[10:56] Yume
Elise?
[10:57] Mizuto
Exactly. He wrote about a
woman he met in Siberia,
[11:01] Mizuto
just like Mori Ogai did in "The Dancing Girl."
[11:04] Mizuto
Well, if you want to know the rest,
why not read it for yourself?
[11:07] Yume
Huh?
[11:08] Mizuto
Books are meant to be read, no?
[11:11] Mizuto
If you're so inclined, how about it?
[11:14] Mizuto
It's short, so it shouldn't take you long.
[11:17] Yume
Are you sure?
[11:18] Mizuto
You act like something bad's going to happen.
[11:21] Mizuto
I'm gonna go take a bath now.
[11:23] Yume
Hey.
[11:24] Mizuto
Hmm?
[11:25] Yume
Has anyone else ever read this?
[11:27] Mizuto
I mean... I really doubt it.
[11:30] Mizuto
It was pretty tucked away
when I first found it.
[11:36] Yume
Not Mineaki-san, Natsume-san,
SIGN The Siberian Dancing Girl
[11:39] Yume
and not even Madoka-san have ever read this.
[11:42] Yume
The book that shaped Irido Mizuto...
[11:45] Yume
Does he really not mind sharing it with me?
[12:21] Yume
Oh no, what have I done?
[12:23] Yume
I should dab that off...
[12:45] Yume
Alone in this study secluded
from the outside world,
[12:50] Yume
as if to separate himself from its reach...
[12:57] Yume
He's been sequestered in
this room his entire life.
[13:04] Mizuto
Make it to the end?
[13:07] Yume
Yeah.
[13:08] Mizuto
I see.
[13:10] Yume
Your great-granddad was in love back then.
[13:18] Yume
Say, do you mind... if I ask
what your first love was like?
[13:22] Mizuto
Huh?
[13:28] Mizuto
I guess you could say she loved to laugh.
[13:35] Yume
I see.
[13:38] Yume
I knew it.
[13:40] Yume
His first love had to be...
[13:44] Yume
Madoka-san after all.
SIGN My Stepmom's Daughter Is My Ex
[13:51] Natsume
We've got plenty to choose from,
so pick whichever suits your fancy!
[13:55] Madoka
Thanks, Granny!
[13:58] Madoka
What kind of yukata would you like, Yume-chan?
[14:02] Yume
Hmm...
[14:03] Madoka
You're thin, and your hair's nice and long,
[14:06] Madoka
so I bet you'd look good
in any traditional clothes.
[14:08] Madoka
I can't wait for the summer festival!
[14:10] Madoka
The weather's supposed to be good,
so the fireworks should be quite a sight.
[14:16] Madoka
Yume-chan?
[14:19] Madoka
Did something happen between
you and Mizuto-kun?
[14:24] Yume
It's not about anything that he did.
[14:28] Yume
I'm just in my own head
about how selfish I've been.
[14:35] Yume
That's it. I finally understand.
[14:39] Yume
He's his own living, breathing person.
[14:42] Yume
He isn't some perfect manifestation
of my dreams or ideals.
[14:47] Yume
He ostracized himself from others,
[14:49] Yume
living in complete isolation before we met.
[14:53] Yume
It's not crazy to think a boy like him
[14:56] Yume
would've fallen for someone else before me.
[15:02] Madoka
Are you in love with Mizuto-kun?
[15:08] Yume
I don't know...
[15:11] Yume
How do you define loving someone?
[15:17] Madoka
It's simple, isn't it?
[15:18] Madoka
Your heart races when you're near them.
[15:20] Madoka
And you find yourself daydreaming
about kissing them.
[15:23] Madoka
If that's your experience,
the diagnosis is clear, no?
[15:25] Yume
But how is that any different from lust?
[15:29] Madoka
Whoa there, now someone's
asking the tough questions.
[15:32] Yume
I-I'm sorry.
[15:34] Madoka
Listen...
[15:35] Madoka
Aren't you constantly invalidating
your own emotions, Yume-chan?
[15:38] Yume
Huh?
[15:40] Madoka
You're always looking for excuses to
justify not being with Mizuto-kun, right?
[15:45] Yume
I'm looking for excuses not to be with him?
[15:49] Madoka
Now, now! Don't look so puzzled.
[15:52] Madoka
There's no need to think so hard on it.
[15:55] Madoka
Just take the opportunity to
start sorting out those feelings.
[16:00] Yume
Y-You say that, but I have
no idea where to start.
[16:04] Madoka
No worries! Your cousin's got an idea!
[16:19] Yume
I wonder what exactly she's planning.
[16:22] Madoka
Sorry! Something came up and I just
can't get out of it, you know?
[16:27] Mizuto
It's not a problem.
[16:29] Madoka
Thanks a ton!
[16:33] Madoka
There should be a light bulb somewhere
in that chest of drawers over there,
[16:37] Madoka
so have a look for it
with Yume-chan, will you?
[16:39] Madoka
I'll leave you all alone
for about half an hour, 'kay?
[16:42] Madoka
Absolutely no one, not even Aunt Yuni and
Uncle Mineaki, will be by, you hear?
[16:47] Yume
Th-That was dreadful.
[16:49] Yume
I didn't realize Madoka-san
was such an atrocious liar.
[16:54] Mizuto
What's up?
[16:57] Mizuto
You have something you want
to tell me, don't you?
[16:59] Mizuto
Why else would you have her arrange this?
[17:11] Yume
I have no idea what to say first.
[17:14] Yume
I scarcely know what my problem is,
[17:18] Yume
let alone how to go about solving it.
[17:22] Yume
After coming here
[17:24] Yume
and getting to know my new relatives,
[17:27] Yume
I feel like I'm finally part of the family.
[17:31] Yume
Then in that old study,
SIGN The Siberian Dancing Girl
[17:33] Yume
I discovered the book that
shaped the boy I know today.
[17:37] Yume
And in doing so,
[17:38] Yume
it made me realize how selfish I've been.
[17:43] Yume
Getting the wrong idea and wasting
his time just like I am now...
[17:47] Yume
Getting mad at him, getting snarky,
and treating him unfairly...
[17:53] Yume
I'm lugging around feelings
I should have let go of long ago.
[18:00] Yume
I get it now. I think I finally understand.
[18:04] Yume
I know what's wrong with me,
how to fix it...
[18:08] Yume
and what I need to tell him right now.
[18:13] Yume
It's not gonna make it all better.
[18:15] Yume
It's going to feel like ripping off the scab
[18:19] Yume
that's formed over my broken heart.
[18:23] Yume
I'm sure it'll be painful.
[18:25] Yume
Excruciating.
[18:27] Yume
But even so, if I...
[18:29] Yume
If we're ever going to move on,
[18:32] Yume
I need to face this
[18:34] Yume
and finally accept the heartbreak
of my first relationship.
[18:39] Yume
Irido-kun...
[18:43] Yume
Irido-kun... Irido-kun...
[18:50] Yume
Irido-kun, you were my first love.
[18:55] Yume
And yet...
[18:58] Yume
When you said you wanted to break up,
[19:01] Yume
it felt like a weight was
lifted off my shoulders.
[19:05] Yume
"It's finally over. I'm finally free."
[19:08] Yume
"I no longer have to feel
hurt, sad, or alone anymore."
[19:14] Yume
That's how I truly felt deep down.
[19:18] Yume
But still...
[19:23] Yume
I never wanted us to break up.
[19:28] Yume
I should have called you that summer.
[19:32] Yume
And I should have bought you
something for Christmas.
[19:37] Yume
I should have made you
chocolate for Valentine's.
[19:41] Yume
And I should have told you I didn't want to
[19:44] Yume
when you said we should break up.
[19:48] Yume
There's just so much I
regret not doing, Irido-kun.
[19:55] Yume
Irido-kun...
[19:58] Yume
Stop crying!
[20:00] Yume
I'm the one who decided to cast aside
[20:02] Yume
the one person who could wipe away my tears.
[20:05] Yume
I don't deserve to...
[20:07] Mizuto
Ayai.
[20:12] Mizuto
Just this once, let's go back in time, Ayai.
[20:22] Yume
Irido-kun...
[20:23] Yume
Irido-kun... Irido-kun!
[20:28] Mizuto
Ayai...
[20:38] Mizuto
So, what was it that you
wanted to talk to me about?
[20:47] Yume
Your first love.
[20:49] Mizuto
Huh?
[20:50] Yume
When I realized it must be Madoka-san,
[20:53] Yume
it really bothered me for some reason.
[20:56] Yume
I couldn't sit still.
[20:58] Mizuto
You think Madoka-san was my first love?
[21:01] Yume
Huh?
[21:02] Yume
Sh-She wasn't?
[21:04] Mizuto
I don't recall ever having feelings for her.
[21:07] Yume
B-But yesterday, you said...
[21:09] Mizuto
Yesterday?
[21:12] Mizuto
I thought you were acting strange after
asking me such a weird question.
[21:15] Mizuto
So that's what got into your head?
[21:18] Mizuto
You've got so much going for you on paper,
[21:22] Mizuto
but you're a real mess under
the hood, you know that?
[21:27] Mizuto
Your nose is running, by the way.
[21:29] Yume
Huh?!
[21:32] Mizuto
Just kidding.
[21:36] Mizuto
What's so funny?
[21:38] Yume
Just that you can be such a child, you know?
[21:44] Mizuto
See? Didn't I tell you?
[21:47] Yume
Huh?
[21:48] Mizuto
My first love loved to laugh.

Yume-chan, you're gorgeous!

A walking firework blooming
before our very eyes!
[00:08] Madoka
This year's show is gonna be a total flop!
[00:10] Yume
Er, that's enough, Madoka-san.
[00:14] Madoka
Why, you ask?
[00:15] Madoka
Because everyone's eyes will be on you!
[00:18] Yume
Are you making fun of me?
[00:20] Madoka
Nonsense! I'm speaking from the heart.
[00:23] Madoka
Doesn't she look cute, Chikuma?
[00:25] Chikuma
Yeah...
[00:26] Madoka
Oh, Mizuto-kun's here.

Well? Whaddya think, Mizuto-kun?
[00:37] Madoka
Isn't she beautiful?

Hmm?
[00:43] Yume
Can I... Can I get a picture?!

Huh?

Okay! One picture coming right up!
[00:50] Yume
Huh?

Make sure to get a good angle, Mizuto-kun.
[00:53] Yume
Er, no... I didn't mean of me.

Don't you hate big crowds like this?
[02:43] Mizuto
Madoka doesn't have anyone else, you know?
[02:46] Mizuto
She makes a point of dragging
me here every year.
[02:50] Mizuto
I've given up trying to resist at this point.
[02:55] Mizuto
I could ask you the same.
Don't you hate big crowds too?
[03:01] Yume
I suppose I don't have good memories of them.
[03:04] Madoka
We're back!
[03:06] Madoka
The restrooms were packed,
so it took us a bit.
[03:09] Madoka
Why don't you two hold hands too?
[03:11] Madoka
That way, you won't get separated.
[03:13] Mizuto
We're not children.
[03:15] Mizuto
Besides, even if we did get separated,
I'd just head back home—
[03:21] Mizuto
What are you doing?
[03:23] Yume
This is normal between siblings.
[03:26] Mizuto
Huh?
[03:27] Yume
It's my responsibility as your
older sister to keep you close.
[03:30] Madoka
Exactly!
[03:32] Madoka
Couldn't have said
it better myself, Yume-chan!
[03:33] Mizuto
Have you forgotten?
[03:36] Mizuto
I'm the older brother, remember?
[03:37] Yume
Fine by me. Doesn't matter either way.
[03:41] Madoka
All the same, it's your responsibility
as the older brother to keep her close.
[03:47] Mizuto
Fine.
[03:48] Mizuto
All I have to do is hold your hand, right?
[03:50] Yume
Look at you, doing as you're told.
[03:53] Mizuto
Shut up.
[03:55] Yume
I feel so much lighter after
crying my eyes out yesterday.
[04:00] Yume
It's like I finally let go of all the
needless baggage I was carrying around.
[04:06] Madoka
Is there anything you guys want to eat?
[04:09] Madoka
Granny gave us plenty of spending money,
so feel free to go wild, okay?
[04:14] Mizuto
Festival stalls are always
so expensive, though.
[04:17] Mizuto
I feel like we should just go
to the convenience store.

As his big sister.

I don't think my legs can
hold out much longer.
[05:51] Yume
A-At this rate, my chest is gonna...
[05:55] Mizuto
This is it.
[06:06] Yume
Doesn't suit you one bit.
[06:08] Mizuto
Have you no concept of the
phrase "keep it to yourself"?
[06:12] Mizuto
Here.
[06:17] Chikuma
Th-Thanks.
[06:19] Madoka
Wasn't that nice of him, Chikuma?
[06:21] Yume
How did you know he wanted it?
[06:24] Mizuto
It's a character from the game
he's been playing recently.
[06:29] Yume
Really? I'm surprised you
noticed something like that.
[06:35] Yume
To think you're this socially
awkward with kids too.
[06:39] Mizuto
What do you mean "too"?
[06:40] Mizuto
When have I ever been socially awkward?
[06:43] Yume
I'm starting to feel resistance to the idea
of letting you be the older brother.
[06:47] Mizuto
Better that than letting you
be the older sister.
[06:51] Mizuto
Speaking of, did you do
that on purpose earlier?
[06:55] Yume
N-Never in a million years!
[06:57] Mizuto
That's a relief.
[06:59] Mizuto
I'm glad my stepsister
isn't a complete pervert.
[07:02] Yume
Perv—?!
[07:03] Yume
Wh-What's got you so hot
and bothered about it anyway?
[07:06] Yume
I thought you'd be used to it
after hanging out with Higashira-san.
[07:09] Mizuto
She comes at me without a second thought,
[07:12] Mizuto
but when you do it,
I can tell you're nervous.
[07:15] Mizuto
Try to relax for once.
[07:17] Yume
Wha—
[07:18] Yume
Y-You're making it sound like
Higashira-san's better with boys than I am!
[07:22] Madoka
Okay, okay!
[07:24] Madoka
Time to get a move on, you two!
[07:30] Madoka
Oh, look over there!
It's Uncle Mineaki and Aunt Yuni.
[07:33] Yume
Who are they talking to?
[07:35] Madoka
What was her name again?
[07:36] Madoka
We used to be pretty big in
town back in the day, you see.
[07:40] Madoka
So lots of older folks
around here know the family.
[07:43] Yuni
Yume! Mizuto-kun!
[07:48] Yuni
Perfect timing.
[07:50] Yuni
Kedouin-san, this is my daughter.
[07:52] Yume
I'm Irido Yume.
[07:53] Kedouin
My goodness. What a pretty young lady you are.
[07:57] Kedouin
I see Mizuto-kun finally has someone
to call family other than his father.
[08:02] Kedouin
When I heard what happened from Natsume,
I was worried sick.
[08:05] Kedouin
I'm sure you have your hands full
getting used to your new lives,
[08:08] Kedouin
but do remember to look after Mizuto-kun.
[08:12] Yume
Of course.
[08:14] Yume
How strange...
[08:16] Yume
She makes it sound as if he can't survive
without someone there to watch over him.
[08:21] Kedouin
We've reserved the perfect viewing
spot for the fireworks for you all.
[08:26] Kedouin
I can take you there, if you'd like.
[08:28] Mineaki
Thank you as always.
[08:30] Yuni
The fireworks show starts at eight, right?
[08:33] Mineaki
Yeah.
[08:34] Yuni
We still have some time before the fireworks.
[08:36] Yuni
What would you all like to do?
[08:38] Yuni
Oh? Where'd Mizuto-kun go?
[08:40] Yume
What?
[08:42] Madoka
Uh-oh, he's run off on his own again, has he?
[08:45] Madoka
Mizuto-kun always disappears
right before the fireworks every year.
[08:52] Yume
I see... That explains it.
[08:56] Yume
I get it now.
[08:58] Yume
Mizuto was probably
uncomfortable in that setting.
[09:01] Yume
So that's why...
[09:03] (Flashback) Mineaki
Sure. Thanks, kid.
[09:05] Yume
His dad must have been thanking him
for coming along anyway.
[09:09] Yume
But it's not that Mizuto
is uninterested in his relatives.
[09:14] Yume
If he were completely indifferent to them,
[09:16] Yume
he never would've thought
to give Chikuma that toy.
[09:21] (Flashback) Mizuto
I'm sorry, but I can't go out with you.
[09:25] (Flashback) Mizuto
I'm selfish.
[09:27] (Flashback) Mizuto
I can't be attentive to more
than one person at a time.
[09:31] (Flashback) Mizuto
And the one slot that I have...
[09:33] (Flashback) Mizuto
It's already occupied by someone else,
even though she doesn't deserve it.
[09:40] (Flashback) Yume
It must be pretty windy out, huh?
[09:43] Mizuto
Oh... Yeah.
[09:46] Mizuto
Ayai?
[09:47] (Flashback) Yume
Hmm?
[09:48] Mizuto
Never mind.
[09:51] Mizuto
Actually, my battery's getting pretty low.
[09:55] Yume
Why couldn't we talk
while his phone was charging?

The person I was two years ago didn't know...
[10:13] Yume
that he'd be visiting his
relatives this time of year
[10:16] Yume
and trailing around the local festival.
[10:22] Yume
When we were just classmates...
[10:25] Yume
When I was his girlfriend...
[10:27] Yume
And ever since we became family...
[10:31] Yume
I've gotten to see many facets of Irido Mizuto.
[10:34] Yume
They fit together like puzzle pieces,
one after another,
[10:40] Yume
forming a three-dimensional image of him.
[10:43] Yume
One I never knew.
[10:45] Yume
A picture of him I never would have seen
if I'd stayed just his girlfriend.
[10:49] Yume
But still...
[10:51] Yume
I'm going to go find him.
[10:53] Madoka
Yeah, go get him.

"I wanted you to stop me from leaving."
SIGN My Stepmom's Daughter Is My Ex
[11:20] Mizuto
For as long as I can remember,
nothing's ever felt real to me.
[11:25] Mizuto
Like I was living someone else's life.
[11:28] Mizuto
Like I was living in a fictional world.
[11:31] Mizuto
Everything about the
"wonders of life" people speak of
[11:34] Mizuto
seemed like a faraway fantasy
that only existed in my TV.
[11:38] Mizuto
And I wasn't just pretending
to be the guy from No Longer Human*.
[11:41] Mizuto
I genuinely couldn't identify with anyone.
[11:44] (Flashback) Man
It's a miracle you were born safe and sound.
[11:47] (Flashback) Woman
It must be so hard growing up
without a mother.
[11:50] Mizuto
I never understood why*
they pitied and praised me
[11:56] Mizuto
for simply existing,
for simply breathing the air around me.
[12:00] Mizuto
I didn't get it. I didn't understand.
[12:03] Mizuto
And because of that,
a hole begun to grow within me...
[12:08] Mizuto
until everything passed right through
me without so much as a sound.
[12:12] Mizuto
But despite that, the one and only
thing that ever felt real to me
SIGN The Siberian Dancing Girl
[12:16] Mizuto
was the world of the written word.
[12:18] Mizuto
I will never forget the impact
[12:20] Mizuto
of reading my great-grandfather's
"The Siberian Dancing Girl"
[12:23] Mizuto
for the very first time.
[12:26] Mizuto
My soul glimpsed the world
as reflected in its pages.
[12:30] Mizuto
And for once, I felt connected to it.
SIGN The Dancing Girl
Foam on the Waves
And three other tales
Mori Ogai
[12:33] Mizuto
"The Dancing Girl" taught me
how weak people can be.
[12:36] Mizuto
"Rashomon" taught me about the human ego.
[12:38] Mizuto
"The Moon Over the Mountain"
taught me about pride.
[12:41] Mizuto
And Kokoro taught me
about the human experience.
[12:46] Mizuto
In my mind, the world of fiction was reality,
[12:50] Mizuto
while the real world was a fabrication.
[12:53] Mizuto
That's why...
[12:55] Mizuto
meeting Ayai Yume was just
as insignificant to me at first.
[12:59] Mizuto
I merely approached her on a whim.
[13:02] Mizuto
But when we went on our
first date at the summer festival,
[13:05] Mizuto
something stirred deep within me.
[13:08] Mizuto
How could such a weak person exist?
[13:10] Mizuto
Someone so weak that she'd
practically forget how to breathe
[13:13] Mizuto
if there were no one else around...
[13:15] Mizuto
If I abandoned her here, I thought
she'd be doomed to weep eternally
[13:20] Mizuto
in absolute solitude.
[13:22] Mizuto
"Oh, you poor thing..."
[13:26] Mizuto
That thought that arose within me
[13:29] Mizuto
was the exact sentiment
others had thrown at me my whole life.
[13:33] Mizuto
Ayai...
[13:34] Mizuto
From that point on,
you were etched into my heart.
[13:37] Mizuto
More intensely than any story I'd ever read.
[13:40] Mizuto
To me,
[13:42] Mizuto
you felt more real than anyone I'd ever met.
[13:47] Yume
Irido Mizuto has always struggled,
[13:50] Yume
forever keeping the world at arm's length.
[13:52] Yume
But then...
[13:54] Yume
One day, he stumbled
upon his salvation, Ayai Yume.
[13:57] Yume
To him, she was the key to reversing
his sentence of a pitiful life.
[14:04] Yume
But he lost that key.
[14:08] Yume
You shouldn't pity him
for not having a mother.
[14:11] Yume
You should pity him because he lost
the one thing that meant something to him.
[14:15] Yume
And that was...
[14:21] Yume
You sure like dark and dingy places, huh?
[14:25] Yume
A wimp trying to turn over a new leaf, perhaps?
[14:28] Mizuto
Have you just come to ridicule me?
[14:30] Mizuto
To tell me I'm a loser who can't even
interact with his own family?
[14:33] Yume
Don't be ridiculous.
[14:35] Yume
I figured that much out ages ago.
[14:38] Yume
It'd be pointless to dredge up.
[14:42] Yume
Remember our first date
at the summer festival two years ago?
[14:46] Yume
I got lost and called you up in tears.
[14:51] Mizuto
Huh?
[14:52] Yume
I wonder how many days
had passed after that...
[14:55] Yume
when you called me up
out of the blue that one night.
[14:59] Yume
I remember it.
[15:01] Yume
I could hear the faint rustling
of trees in the background.
[15:05] Yume
You were here, weren't you?
[15:08] Yume
You know...
[15:09] Yume
You must have really liked me, huh?
[15:18] Yume
Say, do you remember
[15:20] Yume
the date of when we shared our first kiss?
[15:23] Mizuto
October 27th, wasn't it?
[15:26] Mizuto
It was exactly two months
after we had started dating.
[15:30] Yume
I knew you'd remember.
[15:32] Mizuto
And how's that?
[15:33] Yume
You were able to unlock my phone, were you not?
[15:38] Mizuto
You shouldn't be using a date
as a password, you know.
[15:42] Yume
You say that...
[15:44] Yume
but the fact that your
instinct was to type "1027"
[15:47] Yume
must mean you used it
yourself at one point, no?
[15:53] Yume
That's right...
We'd been dating exactly two months.
[15:56] Yume
I felt that if we didn't do it then,
I'd have to wait a whole month to try again.
[16:01] Yume
So I was a little frantic at the time.
[16:03] Mizuto
I was sure you'd fallen for some dodgy
advice you'd read online or in a magazine.
[16:09] Yume
I might have perused a few articles,
but it was purely for research purposes.
[16:14] Mizuto
Either way, it's you we're talking about.
[16:16] Mizuto
There's no way you'd have
done something so bold
[16:18] Mizuto
without reading about it first.
[16:21] Yume
Well, sorry for being so "by the book"!
[16:24] Yume
You could at least praise
your girlfriend for being so courageous!
[16:27] Mizuto
You were very brave.
[16:29] Mizuto
You must have really practiced
that kissing face too.
[16:31] Yume
How did you know?
[16:33] Mizuto
I knew the moment I saw it.
[16:35] Mizuto
There's no way you'd pull something
like that off on your first try.
[16:39] Yume
You jerk!
[16:40] Yume
I'm pretty good at improv from time to time.
[16:44] Mizuto
Only because I'm usually the one
backing you up after the fact.
[16:48] Yume
Oh, you're always so condescending.
[16:50] Yume
Don't you realize you'd be a better
catch if you'd just bite your tongue?
[16:53] Mizuto
What reason do I have to try to adhere
to your taste in men now?
[16:57] Yume
You're right.
[16:59] Yume
There'd be little point in it.
[17:01] Yume
It'd just end in disappointment
for the both of us.
[17:03] Mizuto
You took the words right out of my mouth.
[17:11] Yume
Say...
[17:12] Mizuto
What?
[17:14] Yume
Why did you decide to go out with me?
[17:17] Mizuto
I probably would've been fine with anyone.
[17:20] Yume
What?!
[17:22] Mizuto
It was all just a twist of fate.
[17:24] Mizuto
A mere coincidence, wouldn't you say?
[17:26] Mizuto
Suppose I were to have met
Higashira before I met you.
[17:31] Mizuto
In that case, we never would have dated.
[17:35] Mizuto
But the reality is...
[17:37] Mizuto
you're the one I met.
[17:40] Mizuto
In a simple game of musical chairs,
whoever gets there first wins.
[17:44] Mizuto
If you're looking for a simple answer,
that's the one I'd give.
[17:50] Mizuto
Are you satisfied?
[17:52] Yume
Yeah.
[17:58] Yume
It's almost time.
[17:59] Mizuto
Hmm?
[18:00] Yume
For the fireworks we never saw two years ago.
[18:09] Yume
We finally get to see them together.
[18:28] Yume
Hey... look at me.
[18:38] Yume
Not as Ayai Yume, but as Irido Yume...
[18:42] Yume
I bestow unto you the second first kiss of my life.
[18:47] Yume
I assure you I will vanquish...
[18:50] Yume
the girl who's seized
that one slot in your heart.
[18:55] Yume
No matter how much you may love Ayai Yume,
[19:07] Yume
I, Irido Yume, vow that I will
win you over in the end.
[19:21] Madoka
Hey, tell me already! How'd yesterday go?
[19:25] Yume
I think we made a big step forward, at least.
[19:28] Madoka
Let's go!
[19:30] Madoka
If anything ever happens, call me, okay?!
[19:32] Madoka
You have my full support—
[19:34] Madoka
O-Ouch!
[19:34] Madoka
Wh-What was that for, Chikuma?!
[19:36] Madoka
Is this your rebellious phase?!
[19:40] Yume
Chikuma-kun?
[19:43] Madoka
Wait, seriously? Is that what's going on?
[19:47] Madoka
Um, how do I put this delicately?
[19:50] Madoka
My condolences, I suppose.
[19:55] Natsume
I can't thank you enough, Yume-chan.
[19:59] Natsume
Take care of Mizuto for me, will you?
[20:02] Yume
He's very capable,
[20:04] Yume
so I'm sure he doesn't need my help.
[20:07] Yume
But it would be my pleasure.
[20:09] Yume
You wouldn't know it,
but he gets quite lonely sometimes.
[20:15] Mizuto
What were you talking about with Granny?
[20:17] Yume
Take a wild guess.
[20:20] Mizuto
Why are you acting so weird?
[20:22] Yume
Don't worry about it.
[20:24] Yume
We're stepsiblings, after all, Mizuto-kun.
[20:29] Mizuto
Talk about stating the obvious, Yume-san.
[20:39] Isana
What is the meaning of this, Mizuto-kun?!
[20:41] Isana
Who is this flagrant playboy?!
[20:44] Kogure
What the hell's going on, Irido?!
[20:46] Kogure
Who's the chick with the massive jugs?!
[20:48] Akatsuki
You stupid horndog.
[20:51] Isana
I'm your only friend, right, Mizuto-kun?!
[20:53] Isana
Right?!
[20:54] Kogure
To think you'd go fooling around with this
chick when you already have Irido-san...
[20:58] Kogure
I'm disappointed in you.
[21:00] Kogure
I thought you were better than that!
[21:02] Mizuto
Kawanami, this is Higashira Isana.
[21:06] Mizuto
She's just a friend I met recently
and hit it off with.
[21:10] Kogure
A friend you met recently and hit it off with?
[21:13] Mizuto
Higashira, this is Kawanami Kogure.
[21:16] Mizuto
He's just a classmate who declared himself
my friend and insists on following me around.
[21:21] Isana
Someone who insists on following you around?
[21:24] Isana
Now I get it.
[21:25] Isana
He's your stalker, isn't he?
[21:28] Kogure
Now I get it.
[21:29] Kogure
She's a succubus who's chosen you as her prey.
[21:31] Mizuto
How did you arrive at those conclusions?
[21:33] Kogure
Did you think he'd be an easy target
just because he's a nerd?
[21:36] Kogure
Well, too bad for you,
but Irido isn't that shallow.
[21:40] Kogure
Why don't you give up the charade
before you take a hit to your pride?
[21:43] Isana
H-How could you so thoughtlessly
prod at an open wound?!
[21:46] Kogure
Oh dear, so you already got the rug
pulled out from under you, did you?
[21:51] Kogure
Serves you right—
[21:53] Kogure
Ow, ow, ow, ouch!
[21:56] Akatsuki
There's nothing going on
between her and Irido-kun, okay?
[21:59] Akatsuki
They're just good friends.
[22:01] Akatsuki
The fact that you suspect funny business
is your sick little mind at work.
[22:06] Akatsuki
You hear me?
[22:07] Kogure
I'd rather not take lip from
the chick with the sickest mind of all!
[22:11] Akatsuki
What was that?
[22:14] Isana
Mizuto-kun and I just really click!
[22:17] Isana
It's because of love-obsessed
wannabe players like you
[22:20] Isana
that I can't stand extroverts!
[22:23] Yume
You're not convincing anyone while
glued to each other like that.
[22:28] Yume
Hands off for one second!
[22:31] Yume
I'm happy you finally made friends,
unlike back in middle school,
[22:36] Yume
my dear little brother.
[22:37] Mizuto
And I'm thrilled you actually got
something out of reinventing yourself,
[22:41] Mizuto
my dear little sister.
SIGN Irido
[22:46] Mizuto & Yume
Looking back, I can only describe
it as youthful indiscretion.
SIGN Saekano:
How to Raise a
Boring Girlfriend
[22:50] Mizuto
But from my second to third
year of middle school,
[22:54] Mizuto
I had what you might call a girlfriend.
[22:58] Yume
But from my second to third
year of middle school,
[23:03] Yume
I had what you might call a boyfriend.
SIGN The End Credits of The Fool
Honobu Yonezawa
[23:07] Mizuto
We can never go back to how things were.
SIGN Goodbye
Osamu Dazai
[23:10] Yume
We can't bring back the happiness
we felt back then.
[23:15] Mizuto & Yume
And yet...
[23:16] Mizuto
My feelings from that time
are still etched into my soul.
[23:22] Yume
For now, I'm okay with that.
[23:26] Mizuto
We still haven't fully moved on.
[23:29] Yume
But it's fine.
SIGN Irido
[23:31] Yume
Because I... No, we...
[23:35] Mizuto & Yume
We have a chance to weave a new tale.
