Osamake: Romcom Where The Childhood Friend Won't Lose

She smiles just for me. Her name is Kachi Shirokusa and she's even an award-winning high school girl writer! And she's beautiful! I know that she's totally out of reach for me, a normal high school kid named Maru Sueharu! But I think something's there... No, there's definitely something there! Or so I thought... but Kachi has a boyfriend?! Seeing me depressed, my friend ever since we were little who's cute, cheerful, and loves to look after others, Shida Kuroha... who also apparently had no problem telling me that she likes me for some reason just suggested, "Let's get revenge."

[00:30] Maru
    Hey, uh... you're Kachi-san, right?
[00:34] Kachi
    You're... Maru-kun, wasn't it?
[00:38] Maru
    Huh? Uh, yeah... Maru Sueharu.
[00:41] Maru
    You know my name?
[00:42] Shiro
    I know the names and faces of
    basically everyone in my class.
[00:47] Maru
    Oh, I shouldn't be surprised.
[00:49] Shiro
    So what did you want?
[00:51] Shiro
    Or were you talking to me without
    having anything to say?
[00:54] Shiro
    You must really take me for a fool.
[00:56] Maru
    U-Um...
[00:58] Maru
    I read your novel, Kachi-san!
[01:02] Shiro
    My novel?
[01:03] Maru
    Yeah, yours.
[01:07] Shiro
    Would you mind telling me
    what you thought of it?
[01:13] Maru
    Is the moment you fall in
    love easily recognizable?
[01:17] Maru
    Of course, people with a lot of experience
    in relationships might say it is.
[01:25] Maru
    But to be honest,
[01:27] Maru
    I've been wondering if I'm just
    telling myself that I could recognize it.
[01:33] Maru
    It was really good! It moved my heart!
[01:40] Shiro
    Thank you.
[01:42] Shiro
    It truly makes me happy
    to hear that from you.
[01:45] Shiro
    I'm glad I worked so hard
    to get to this point.
[01:51] Maru
    Love isn't something you fall into.
[01:53] Maru
    It spreads all over your body,
    eating away at it.
[01:59] Maru
    In winter of my first year of high school,
[02:01] Maru
    I fell victim to love's poison.

    I should probably narrow

[02:42] Maru
    Didn't everyone hate you after you got
    caught three-timing before summer?
[02:46] Tetsu
    Don't be dumb. Obviously, they were
    all from different schools.
[02:49] Tetsu
    After all, to this school's girls,
    I'm lower than trash in the hierarchy.
[02:54] Tetsu
    For instance...
[03:00] Tetsu
    See?
[03:01] Maru
    Your mental fortitude amazes me.
[03:06] Maru
    So if you're deciding at the
    confession festival, who's it gonna be?
[03:11] Tetsu
    Kachi Shirokusa.
[03:15] Tetsu
    What would you do if I picked her?
[03:18] Maru
    You are wrong. I do not care at all.
[03:21] Tetsu
    Huh? What'd you say?
[03:23] Tetsu
    Could you not react like that?
[03:25] Tetsu
    Even I'm embarrassed by your desperation.
[03:28] Maru
    I just decided that I'm gonna kill you!
[03:31] Tetsu
    Ow, ow! Dude, you're actually serious!
[03:34] Tetsu
    Don't get so bent out of—ow, ow, ow!
[03:37] Tetsu
    Oh, Kachi...
[03:39] Maru
    I'm not falling for that!
[03:45] Maru
    Huh?
[03:47] Shiro
    Did you need me for something?
[03:49] Maru
    Er... huh?
[03:50] Maru
    What are you doing here?
[03:52] Shiro
    This is our classroom.
    Why wouldn't I be here?
[03:56] Maru
    Yeah, but... I mean...
[03:59] Maru
    Don't you usually eat with
    Mine in the cafeteria?
[04:02] Maru
    Meiko had other things to do.
[04:04] Maru
    She said she'll be back soon, though.
[04:06] Maru
    Oh, I see.
[04:08] Guy
    What size do you think she is here?
[04:10] Guy
    D... wait, maybe E?
[04:11] Guy
    Man, if only we could see the
    lines a little better...
[04:14] Guy

    Kachi that came out today?
[04:17] Shiro
    I hate dirty-minded people.
[04:22] Shiro
    What scum.
[04:23] Shiro
    Maybe you should all just die out.
[04:28] Tetsu
    Damn. RIP.
[04:30] Maru
    I'd say it's their own
    fault for looking at that.
[04:34] Tetsu
    Let me give you some advice as your friend.
[04:36] Tetsu
    She's out of your league, man.
[04:39] Maru
    Huh?
[04:40] Tetsu
    She's smart, she's athletic,
    her debut work won the Akutami Award,
SIGN    Go get it back by the end
     of the day if you want
SIGN    I'll be taking that.
    I'll leave it with
    the teacher
[04:44] Tetsu
    and she got her own pin-up,
    making her famous nationwide.
[04:47] Tetsu
    When she talks in that aloof tone,
    she's not trying to impress anyone.
[04:49] Tetsu
    She's super popular on TV, too.
[04:51] Tetsu
    Take my advice and just give up.
[04:54] Maru
    Kachi and I actually get along pretty well.
[04:57] Tetsu
    Huh?
[04:58] Maru
    I talked to her once last winter.
[05:01] Maru
    We realized we live near each other,
    and we started talking now and then.
[05:05] Tetsu
    Oh? And that's how you fell for her?
[05:07] Maru
    No!
[05:08] Maru
    Kachi's not how she seems on the outside.
[05:11] Maru
    She's, like... cheerful, even innocent!
[05:14] Tetsu
    Come back to reality, please.
[05:18] Girl
    Wow, that looks nice!
[05:20] Girl
    I've never seen such
    perfectly organized notes!
[05:24] Girl
    I'm gonna copy them.
[05:36] Shiro
    I'm sorry. The notes are gone now.
[05:40] Shiro
    But they were mine, so that's
    not your problem, right?
[05:42] Shiro
    Or are you a parasite that just wants to
    lick the sweet nectar off of everyone else?
[05:49] Girl
    This is stupid!

[06:33] Tetsu
    You know, if you want a girlfriend,
[06:35] Tetsu
    why don't you just ask Shida-chan?
[06:39] Maru
    Ow!
[06:44] Tetsu
    Shida-chan already looks out for you.
[06:47] Tetsu
    If you asked her sincerely,
    she might actually say yes.
[06:50] Maru
    No... Kuroha's not really...
[06:53] Tetsu
    Come to think of it, Shida-chan didn't
    come to talk to you at lunch today.
[06:58] Tetsu
    That's rare.
[06:59] Maru
    Is it? I'd say it happens every now and then.
[07:03] Tetsu
    It's your fault. Go apologize to her.
[07:06] Maru
    We're not fighting or anything!
[07:08] Maru
    Also, why is it my fault?!
[07:10] Tetsu
    It always is.
[07:13] Tetsu
    Look, Shida-chan's out of your league, too.
[07:17] Tetsu
    If she wasn't your childhood friend,
    you'd never even get near her.
[07:20] Maru
    I know that. She's cute, guys like her,
[07:24] Maru
    and she's good at communicating.
    I respect her a lot.
[07:28] Kuroha
    Oh?
[07:29] Kuroha
    So that's how you feel about me, Haru?
[07:37] Kuroha
    What're you being all shy for?
[07:38] Kuroha
    I guess even you have your cute moments.
[07:40] Kuroha
    Your big sis here likes
    that about you, you know.
[07:45] Maru
    D-Don't talk about "liking" me!
[07:47] Maru
    And don't call yourself my big sis!
[07:50] Kuroha
    Why? You're the one who
    puts me through so much.
[07:54] Kuroha
    You're even more trouble than
    my little sisters, honestly.

    Damn it, there's Maru with Shida-san again!

    Maru's a useless childhood friend,
    so Shida-san's still pure!

    back! No one'll find him there!

[08:26] Kuroha
    I knew it. You're avoiding me, aren't you?
[08:28] Maru
    Gulp!
[08:30] Kuroha
    Is it because you regret turning me down?
[08:34] Tetsu
    You're running away when something
    this big's going down, Sueharu?

    You saved my skin, Kuro.
[09:04] Kuroha
    Answer me.
[09:05] Kuroha
    Do you regret it or not?
[09:08] Maru
    I-I do.
[09:10] Kuroha
    So does that mean you do
    want to go out with me?
[09:14] Maru
    Well...
[09:15] Maru
    I do think we'd have a lot
    of fun if we were a couple.
[09:20] Maru
    But right now, I...
[09:23] Maru
    I'm really sorry.
[09:25] Kuroha
    Huh...
[09:29] Kuroha
    Well, I guess I'll let you off the hook now.
[09:33] Kuroha
    Just kidding!
[09:35] Kuroha
    Asking you out was actually just a game!
[09:38] Maru
    Huh?!
[09:40] Kuroha
    Sorry I didn't tell you before now.
[09:42] Maru
    You... You brat!
[09:45] Kuroha
    Did you take me seriously?
[09:46] Kuroha
    Did you feel awkward and start
    panicking? Stressing? Agonizing?
[09:50] Kuroha
    You should really feel
    more grateful to have me!
[09:54] Maru
    Seriously, give me a break, Kuro...
[09:57] Kuroha
    It was a good lesson, though, wasn't it?
[10:00] Maru
    Maybe, but...
[10:02] Maru
    I'm still gonna do this!
[10:04] Kuroha
    Stop!
[10:05] Kuroha
    You jerk! You're honestly the worst!
[10:07] Maru
    Oh, c'mon.
[10:08] Kuroha
    You can forget about copying my homework!

    Anything but that! Please!

[10:23] Meiko
    When did he ask you out? And where?
[10:26] Shiro
    Last week, when we went to the beach.
[10:28] Kuroha
    Huh... So Kachi-san got a boyfriend.
[10:32] Tetsu
    Isn't Abe the guy whose dad is an actor,
    so he recently debuted as one, too?
[10:38] Tetsu
    I guess that would make
    him a worthy candidate.
[10:48] Maru
    I'm going home.
[10:51] Tetsu
    Aw. I told him so.
[10:54] Kuroha
    Haru...
[11:04] Maru
    Damn it... Damn it...
[11:08] Kuroha
    Poor Haru. You got shot down, huh?
[11:12] Maru
    I did not.
[11:14] Kuroha
    Huh.
[11:20] Maru
    Sorry, Kuro... but could you
    leave me alone right now?
[11:24] Maru
    Talking to you will just make
    me want to lean on you.
[11:28] Kuroha
    You can, you know.
[11:30] Maru
    You're so nice, Kuro.
[11:34] Maru
    Especially after I rejected you...
[11:36] (Flashback) Kuroha
    Haru, go out with me.
[11:40] Kuroha
    I told you, I just did that
    because I lost a game.
[11:43] Maru
    You're forcing it, aren't you?
[11:47] Maru
    All that about a game...
[11:49] Maru
    Sorry for making you lie.
[11:51] Maru
    You act like an older sister,
    but I know you like to be doted on.
[12:01] Maru
    Hey—
[12:02] Kuroha
    A freebie for you.
[12:05] Kuroha
    Because you figured it out.
[12:08] Kuroha
    You're pretty dumb, but you're a decent guy.
[12:12] Kuroha
    You're nice to me, even when
    you're hurting yourself.
[12:16] Kuroha
    That's why... I like you.
[12:23] Kuroha
    It was upsetting that you didn't choose me,
[12:26] Kuroha
    but that doesn't change my feelings for you.
[12:29] Kuroha
    I'll always be on your side, Haru.
[12:33] Maru
    Kuro...
[12:35] Kuroha
    Go ahead and cry. It'll help.
[12:39] Kuroha
    Kachi-san has no idea what she's missing.
[12:42] Kuroha
    You're such a good guy.
[12:46] Maru
    Damn it...
[12:48] Maru
    She was my first love...
[12:54] Kuroha
    Kachi-san's pretty cruel, isn't she?
[12:56] Maru
    Huh?
[12:57] Kuroha
    She was all buddy-buddy with you,
[12:59] Kuroha
    then ran off to her first choice
    once she saw her chance with him.
[13:03] Kuroha
    I can't believe she'd treat you like that.
[13:08] Maru
    Thanks...
[13:09] Maru
    But even though I should give up,
[13:13] Maru
    I still feel like she might look my way.
[13:16] Maru
    Pathetic, right?
[13:21] Kuroha
    Haru, let's get revenge.
[13:25] Kuroha
    She made a fool of you.
[13:28] Kuroha
    You might forgive her, but I never will.
[13:30] Maru
    Whoa... That seems a bit extreme...
[13:33] Kuroha
    Frankly, I've always hated Kachi-san.
[13:37] Maru
    For real? What is it you hate?
[13:39] Kuroha
    Everything about her!
[13:41] Maru
    I never thought I'd hear
    you talk like that...
[13:43] Maru
    You've changed, Kuro.
[13:45] Kuroha
    What's wrong with that? We don't
    need to hide anything anymore.
[13:49] Maru
    Well, we've both been pretty
    frank with each other...
[13:53] Kuroha
    What do you think about getting revenge?
[13:56] Maru
    To be honest... I'm so upset, I want to.
[13:59] Maru
    But...
[14:00] Kuroha
    Just picture Abe-senpai
    and Kachi-san together!
[14:05] Maru
    Huh?
[14:06] Kuroha
    They've been dating for a week.
[14:09] Kuroha
    They might have their
    first date this weekend!
[14:11] Kuroha
    Think they'll go to the movies?
[14:14] Kuroha
    Then maybe they'll get dinner, then tea,
[14:16] Kuroha
    and then maybe they'll
    go to the observatory.
[14:19] Kuroha
    Then he'll walk her home,
    and they'll try to say goodbye,
[14:23] Kuroha
    but Senpai will stop her, and their lips—
[14:26] Maru
    No! I can't believe them! Both of them!
[14:30] Maru
    How is it good-looking guys get the
    best stuff without even trying?!
[14:34] Maru
    God might forgive you, but I never will!
[14:37] Kuroha
    Guilty or not guilty?
[14:40] Maru
    Guilty!
[14:43] Maru
    You're right! I do need revenge!
[14:47] Maru
    You only ever have one first love!
[14:52] Maru
    She might call me scum,
[14:54] Maru
    but I'm gonna get her back
    a million times worse!
[15:05] Kuroha
    I've been waiting to hear you say that.
[15:15] Maru
    Kuro once told me that her name,
    Kuroha, comes from "clover."
[15:21] Maru
    In the language of flowers, clovers mean
[15:23] Maru
    "good fortune," "think of me,"
    "promise," and...
[15:29] Maru
    "revenge."
[15:30] Kuroha
    I'll help you out, Haru.
[15:33] Maru
    Yeah. I'm gonna avenge my first love!

[16:58] Maru
    My own genius scares me.
[17:00] Kuroha
    I see.
[17:02] Kuroha
    Well, it's not a bad idea,
[17:04] Kuroha
    but it's a little naïve.
[17:06] Maru
    What?! What's wrong with it?
[17:08] Kuroha
    You wouldn't be winning.
    You just wouldn't be losing.
[17:12] Kuroha
    So even if you get revenge,
    you'll only feel empty.
[17:15] Maru
    What should we do, then?
[17:17] Kuroha
    Don't worry. You just need to end up happy.
[17:21] Kuroha
    Then you're the winner, right?
[17:23] Maru
    Happy...
[17:26] Kuroha
    What would make you happy?
[17:28] Kuroha
    When you hear "happy," what comes to mind?
[17:34] Maru
    If Kachi confessed to me...
    that might make me happy...
[17:39] Maru
    And here I'm talking about
    revenge. Stupid, huh?
[17:41] Kuroha
    Very stupid.
[17:42] Kuroha
    You're where you are now because
    that didn't happen, remember?
[17:47] Kuroha
    But I know how you feel.
[17:51] ---
    Kuro...
[17:53] Kuroha
    Hey, Haru...
[17:55] Kuroha
    Why don't you pretend to be my boyfriend?
[17:58] Maru
    Huh?! How would that get me revenge?
[18:01] Kuroha
    Kachi had a sweet side that
    she only showed to you,
[18:04] Kuroha
    so she likes you enough that she
    wanted to keep you around.
[18:08] Kuroha
    I think that's a safe assumption.
[18:10] Maru
    O-Okay...
[18:11] Kuroha
    But if the boy she wanted to
    keep around got a girlfriend,
[18:14] Kuroha
    and if it was a cutie like me
    to boot, how would she feel?
[18:18] Maru
    You're really overconfident
    sometimes, you know that?
[18:21] Kuroha
    That's bad?
[18:23] Maru
    N-No, it's fine...
[18:26] Maru
    So that would mean...
SIGN    I thought I was
    keeping him around,
    but he was just
    keeping me around...
[18:29] Shiro
    I thought I was keeping him around,
    but he was just keeping me around...
[18:33] Maru
    Wow!
[18:34] Maru
    That's exactly how I was hoping to strike!
[18:36] Kuroha
    Right?
[18:38] Maru
    Are you sure, though? You'd have
    to force yourself again...
[18:41] Kuroha
    Jeez, you really are an idiot, Haru.
[18:46] Kuroha
    I get to go out with the guy
    I love, even if it's fake.
[18:49] Kuroha
    That's nothing but profit for me.
[18:57] Maru
    Whoa... Wait, wait...
[18:59] Maru
    What is this? Am I that easy?!
[19:03] Kuroha
    Haru?
[19:04] Maru
    Calm down... Calm down!
[19:09] Kuroha
    Why don't you just tell your big
    sis how you really feel already?
[19:15] Maru
    K-Kuro! We shouldn't do this!
[19:17] Kuroha
    Do what?
[19:18] Maru
    You know what!
[19:21] Kuroha
    You're so cute.
[19:22] Kuroha
    You're the one who's cute!
[19:25] Maru
    Even if it's fake, the idea of
    dating you makes me embarrassed!
[19:28] Maru
    And I'm a total creep for
    being happy about it!
[19:30] Kuroha
    Oh, I'm sorry...
[19:32] Maru
    No... I'm sorry.
[19:35] Kuroha
    O-Okay, then, I guess
    we'll go with this plan.
[19:38] Maru
    Right.
[19:40] Kuroha
    Just so we can call it a done deal...
[19:43] Kuroha
    should we go ahead and kiss?
[19:44] Maru
    What?!
[19:47] Maru
    Ow!
[19:49] Maru
    Wait... Kuro...
[19:51] Maru
    Have you lost all reason?!
[19:54] Kuroha
    I mean, isn't this the kind of
    situation where you'd just... do it?
[19:58] Kuroha
    So I thought a little kiss couldn't hurt.
[20:01] Kuroha
    Right, Haru?
[20:03] Maru
    H-Hang in there, my reason!
[20:05] Kuroha
    Why are you holding back?
[20:07] Kuroha
    Just look at what I'm like already.
[20:10] Kuroha
    You're so unfair.
[20:12] Maru
    You're close...
[20:13] Kuroha
    It's okay, Haru.
    There's nothing to be afraid of.
[20:17] Maru
    What I'm afraid of is that
    there'll be no going back...
[20:21] Kuroha
    You're still able to think about the future?
[20:24] Kuroha
    I can't have that.
[20:29] Maru
    N...
[20:30] Maru
    No!
[20:32] Kuroha
    Huh?
[20:34] Maru
    Sorry, Kuro! See you tomorrow!
[20:37] Kuro
    Wait... Haru!
[20:41] Kuroha
    What a loser.
[20:45] Maru
    Damn that Kuro...
[20:48] Maru
    No! What I need to do right
    now is get info on Abe!
[20:54] Maru
    Hey! Do you have a minute?!
[20:58] Maru
    Everyone said nothing but good things.
SIGN    ...not sarcastic at all, I totally mean...
    ...a really good, upright guy...
    ...since he's so approachable. Anyway...
    ...don't show up much, but even though I'm just a first-year...
    ...Abe-senpai's singing? Of course...
    ...about him? You mean in terms of relationships and stuff?
    ...but even then, Abe-senpai...
    ...everyone already knew...
    It was no use.
[21:01] Maru
    It's no wonder Kachi fell in love with him.
[21:04] Maru
    Wait! I can't just give up!
[21:07] Maru
    I am Envy Mask, and I burn with envy.
[21:10] Maru
    If I hear good things
    about my rival in love,
[21:12] Maru
    it just makes me even more
    determined to expose him!
[21:16] Mitsuru
    Wow, I'd love to hear more about that.
[21:19] Maru
    Huh?!
[21:20] Maru
    Abe-senpai?!
[21:21] Mitsuru
    You're the one who's been asking
    around about me, right?
[21:26] Maru
    Word spreads fast, huh?
[21:28] Mitsuru
    I just happened to find out.
[21:29] Mitsuru
    If you weren't the one
    who'd been asking around,
[21:31] Mitsuru
    I doubt you wouldn't have come up here.
[21:33] Maru
    Wow... A famous guy like you knows who I am?
[21:38] Mitsuru
    I wouldn't say I know you.
[21:40] Mitsuru
    To be precise, it's more like I remembered.
[21:45] Maru
    Whatever might you be talking about?
[21:49] Mitsuru
    I had no idea until just recently
    that you were at this school.
[22:01] Mitsuru
    The former genius child actor,
[22:04] Mitsuru
    Maru Sueharu.
[22:07] Maru
    Huh?

SIGN    Child King
[00:02] Maru
    I was born to a father who was a stunt man
[00:04] Maru
    and a mother who was an
    unsuccessful actress.
[00:09] (Flashback) Mom
    You did great, Haru-kun!
[00:13] (Flashback) Maru
    I'll do my best in the next scene, too.
[00:15] (Flashback) Maru
    Good.
[00:18] Maru
    Seeing my mom look so happy
    made acting fun for me.
[00:22] Maru
    It made me want to try
    harder and do a lot more.
[00:27] Maru
    But...
SIGN    Osamake: Romcom Where
    The Childhood Friend Won't Lose
[01:59] Mitsuru
    I had no idea you were at this school.
[02:03] Mitsuru
    Would you tell me why you suddenly
    left show business six years ago?
[02:08] Maru
    Why should I have to tell you?
[02:10] Mitsuru
    I decided to be an actor because of you.
[02:13] Maru
    Huh?
[02:14] Mitsuru
    My dad acted alongside you
    in a historical drama,
[02:18] Mitsuru
    and he had the highest praise for you.
[02:20] Mitsuru
    But I didn't have any talent.
[02:23] Mitsuru
    I had already given up once,
    but I still wanted to be an actor.
[02:27] Mitsuru
    Then Shirokusa-chan told me
    that you went to this school.
[02:31] Maru
    Kachi told you?
[02:33] Mitsuru
    I did some digging and found
    out you liked Shirokusa-chan.
[02:37] Mitsuru
    I figured I could use that.
[02:39] Mitsuru
    In other words, I decided to
    start dating Shirokusa-chan
[02:43] Mitsuru
    so that I could humiliate you.
[02:46] Mitsuru
    It looks like it worked.
[02:49] Maru
    Why would you do that just to get to me?
[02:51] Mitsuru
    Because I hate you.
[02:53] Mitsuru
    I wanted victory over you
    in a form that I could see,
[02:57] Mitsuru
    that'd be clear as day.
[02:59] Maru
    You bastard!
[03:01] Mitsuru
    I really wish you wouldn't
    do anything violent.
[03:03] Mitsuru
    Though if you want to be expelled,
    I won't stop you.
[03:06] Maru
    What's his deal? How is
    he a perfect superman?!
[03:09] Maru
    He's just a complete idiot
    who's mad with envy!
[03:12] Maru
    Why would Kachi date a guy like this?!
[03:18] Mitsuru
    I'm planning to formally confess to
    Shirokusa-chan at the confession festival.
[03:23] Mitsuru
    My agency doesn't want me
    to go public with it yet,
[03:26] Mitsuru
    but if I do it at the confession festival,
     they'll have to agree.
[03:31] Mitsuru
    And that will be the time
    limit on your first love.
[03:36] Mitsuru
    Go ahead and do your best
    to find my weakness.
[03:43] Maru
    Hey. You said you wanted to do a play
    for the cultural festival, right?
[03:47] Tetsu
    Huh?
[03:49] Maru
    I'll be in it.
[03:54] Tetsu
    Ah... I see.
[03:58] Tetsu
    Abe's a pro. You'll need a
    good script to beat him.
[04:02] Maru
    I know that.
[04:03] Maru
    It needs to hook people, make them laugh,
     and leave them speechless.
[04:07] Tetsu
    And who can write...
[04:11] Both
    That's who.
[04:13] Tetsu
    Go on.
[04:15] Maru
    N-No, you go!
[04:17] Kuroha
    Hey, Haru!
[04:19] Kuroha
    Why haven't you checked NINE?
[04:22] Kuroha
    It was my first post since we started dating,
     and I wanted to go together!
[04:25] Maru
    Geh!
[04:27] Girl
    No way...
[04:29] Guy
    Maru-kun...
[04:31] Guy
    Come play with us.
[04:35] Goudo
    Guilty! Guilty!
[04:39] Uga
    Don't cry, Goudo! I'll give you some candy!
[04:42] Maru
    Thanks for bailing me out, Kuro.
[04:47] Tetsu
    Hey, perfect.
[04:49] Tetsu
    Go ask her!
[04:51] Tetsu
    Kachi!
[04:53] Kachi
    You want something?
[04:56] Maru
    Help! Help! Help!
[04:58] Kachi
    Do you not think it's rude to call
    my name and then turn your back?
[05:04] Maru
    I sincerely apologize for
    all kinds of things!
[05:08] Kachi
    What... things?
[05:10] Maru
    Huh?
[05:12] Kachi
    Nothing. So what do you want?
[05:15] Maru
    Oh... Well, we want to do a play
    for the cultural festival,
[05:19] Maru
    and we were hoping you'd write an amazing
    script that would draw attention.
[05:25] Kachi
    Suddenly being showered with praise
[05:27] Kachi
    and asked for favors
    right after I got famous
[05:30] Kachi
    isn't a great feeling.
[05:33] Kachi
    But I do want to support people
    who challenge themselves.
[05:37] Kachi
    I wouldn't mind helping you.
[05:39] Maru
    Huh?
[05:40] Kachi
    You'll be in the play, right?
[05:42] Maru
    Oh, yeah.
[05:44] Kachi
    Okay. I'll come up with something.
[05:47] Maru
    Really?
[05:48] Kachi
    Depending on what you pay me.
[05:51] Maru
    I'll think of something!
[05:53] Kachi
    Okay.

    Go!
[06:16] Kuroha
    Oh, having curry today?
[06:18] Maru
    Yeah.
[06:19] Kuroha
    My little sisters were just saying
    they wanted some of your curry.
[06:23] Maru
    I haven't seen them in a while.
     How are they doing?
[06:25] Kuroha
    Good!
[06:27] Maru
    Kuro and I live next to each other,
[06:29] Maru
    and our parents are good friends.
[06:31] Maru
    Since our families spent
    a lot of time together,
[06:33] Maru
    her sisters are like my own family, too.
[06:36] Maru
    They all have color words in their names,
[06:39] Maru
    so local folks call them the four beautiful
    Shida girls, the "Colorful Sisters."
[06:45] Kuroha
    Maybe I should cook something
    every now and then, too.
[06:50] Maru
    I'm begging you. Don't.
[06:52] Kuroha
    What? Are you gonna say my tongue
    is like outer space again?
[06:57] Maru
    Well, it's true!
[06:58] Maru
    Do you know how many times your
    cooking almost killed me?
[07:02] Kuroha
    I'm not even that bad at cooking.
[07:07] Kuroha
    It's such a mess in here again.
[07:09] Maru
    Yeah, I spent summer break with my dad.
[07:12] Kuroha
    Is he crossing the country on foot again?
[07:15] Maru
    He's pretty busy doing accident
    re-enactment stunt work.
[07:18] Kuroha
    Huh...
[07:19] Maru
    We're both pretty irresponsible,
    so I appreciate you coming by again.
[07:23] Maru
    Thanks.

    Yeah, yeah. I bet your
    summer break was crazy.

    Shiro?
[07:41] Maru
    The son of a sponsor on a drama I was in.
[07:45] Maru
    We played together once.

[08:19] Mara
    Nah, you don't have to thank me.
[08:20] Kachi
    Do you have time to talk?
[08:22] Maru
    Of course!
[08:23] Kachi
    So about the image for the play—
[08:25] Kuroha
    Haru!
[08:26] Kuroha
    Did you put the vacuum

[08:29] Kachi
    Ah. So that's it.
[08:32] Maru
    No, wait! There's a reason for this!

[08:45] Kachi
    I know about your relationship
    with Shida-san.
[08:48] Kachi
    There's no reason to get so flustered.
[08:51] Maru
    Kachi... Is that the kind of person you are?
[08:53] Kachi
    You didn't know? It's all your fault.
[08:57] Maru
    Huh? Why?
[08:59] Kachi
    U-Uh, because...
[09:01] Kuroha
    Haru, I'll be doing the laundry.
[09:03] Kuroha
    Come down when you're done on the phone.
[09:06] Kachi
    Why don't we talk tomorrow instead?
    Just the two of us.
[09:10] Maru
    Just us?!
[09:11] Kachi
    Yes.
[09:12] Kachi
    I'll have the library
    prep room ready for us.
[09:14] Kachi
    I've reserved it for times
    when we want to talk alone.
[09:19] Maru
    Does she mean...
[09:24] Kachi
    Send me your ideas on the
    image for the play on NINE.
[09:27] Kachi
    I might be able to come
    up with a simple plot.
[09:30] Maru
    Okay... Thanks. See you tomorrow.
[09:38] Kuroha
    So it was actually Kachi-san.
[09:41] Maru
    Yeah.
[09:42] Kuroha
    Don't you think it's weird that
    she's suddenly approaching you?
[09:46] Kuroha
    And exchanging NINE contacts in
    front of everyone, too.
[09:49] Maru
    Is it weird?
[09:51] Kuroha
    She might be working behind the
    scenes with Abe-senpai to trap you.
[09:54] Kuroha
    And asking Kachi-san, the one you want
    revenge on, for help seems kinda backwards.
[10:00] Kuroha
    Doesn't this feel like
    Abe-senpai's setting a trap?
[10:04] Kuroha
    If he is, you're a clown happily
    nibbling on the bait he left for you.
[10:13] Maru
    How dare he trample all
    over a man's purity?!
[10:16] Kuroha
    I get that acting is the only
    way to beat Abe-senpai,
[10:20] Kuroha
    but can you even act, Haru?
[10:24] Kuroha
    I don't think you should try to act.
[10:27] Kuroha
    It's been ages since you did,
[10:29] Kuroha
    and there's a lot more bashing
    now than there was then.
[10:32] Kuroha
    You still want to do it?
[10:34] Maru
    Thanks for worrying about me.
[10:37] Maru
    But if I don't do anything,
    I think I'll regret it forever.
[10:41] Maru
    So I think this is a good opportunity.
[10:45] Maru
    I'll try practicing tomorrow.
[10:47] Kuroha
    Well, if it doesn't work out,
    acting isn't all you're good for.
[10:51] Kuroha
    I still...
[10:53] Kuroha
    like you.
[10:56] Kuroha
    Aw, you're embarrassed. How cute.
[10:59] Maru
    Well, you should see how red you are!
[11:01] Kuroha
    I-I'm not red!
[11:05] Kuroha
    No counterattacks! I can't deal with that!
[11:08] Maru
    What the hell?
[11:10] Kuroha
    It's fine for me to egg you on!
[11:12] Kuroha
    But you're not allowed to tease me!
[11:15] Maru
    That's some convenient logic.
[11:23] Kuroha
    Hey!
[11:28] Maru
    What about this, then?
[11:30] Kuroha
    J-Just do it. You're gonna kiss me, right?
[11:35] Kuroha
    You don't even have the guts to do that.
[11:38] Maru
    And if I said I do?
[11:43] Kuroha
    I'd be happy.
[11:44] Maru
    I can't!
[11:47] Kuroha
    I think you know this,
[11:48] Kuroha
    but no one would think it was
    weird if I got home late.
[11:52] Maru
    D-Don't yank the ladder out from under me!
[11:54] Kuroha
    I can't?

    Haru!
[13:13] Maru
    Huh? Kachi?
[13:15] Kachi
    Oh, good. You're awake.
[13:19] Maru
    Sorry... We had plans for today.
[13:22] Kachi
    That's why I waited for you.
[13:27] Maru
    What's this?
[13:28] Kachi
    I wrote a bit based on the
    info you sent me last night.
SIGN    Contents Needs an extraordinary concept that will make it the most talked-about event of the cultural festival Concept To stand out above all others, should utilize the opening ceremony and confession festival instead of limiting to a standard play performance There's no point unless everyone sees it
[13:32] Kachi
    What do you think?
[13:35] Maru
    Oh, I get it.
[13:36] Maru
    We could use the confession festival,
    since everyone in the school will see it.
[13:40] Kachi
    Yes. If you want to stand out,
     that's the best way.
[13:44] Kachi
    You guys will cause a stir
    at the confession festival
[13:46] Kachi
    and take it over, as if it
    was part of your own play.
[13:51] Kachi
    How about it?
[13:52] Maru
    Best idea I've heard!
[13:53] Maru
    Thanks!
[13:59] Maru
    Man, you really are a pro!
[14:01] Kachi
    Well, that's to be expected
    from one of my plots.
[14:07] Kachi
    That's all.
[14:09] Kachi
    You don't get to see more until you pay me.
[14:11] Maru
    Oh, right.
[14:13] Maru
    I actually don't have much cash on me...
[14:15] Kachi
    Stop. I don't want to see
    you in that position.
[14:20] Maru
    Kachi, you... know I was
    a child actor, right?
[14:24] Kachi
    Yes.
[14:25] Maru
    Were you actually... supporting me?
[14:28] Kachi
    Well, yes. I can't deny that.
[14:32] Maru
    Oh... So that's why...
[14:35] Maru
    Thanks, but I'm not who I was back then.
[14:39] Maru
    I'm just a high school kid now.
[14:41] Maru
    It won't do you much good to expect more.
[14:43] Kachi
    But you're preparing to get
    up on the stage again.
[14:46] Maru
    Yeah... Maybe I shouldn't even bother,
[14:50] Maru
    but it seems dumb to just
    keep living in obscurity.
[14:53] Maru
    Even if I embarrass myself, I want to
    put all I have into starting over.
[14:57] Kachi
    Would you tell me why that happened to you?
[15:01] Kachi
    That's the payment I want.
[15:05] Maru
    Are you familiar with Child Star,
     the drama I was in?
[15:09] Kachi
    Of course.
[15:10] Kachi
    It became a cultural phenomenon
    and launched you to instant fame.
[15:14] Maru
    Yeah, and thanks to that, a continuation
    was made the following year...
[15:19] Maru
    But my mom was happier about being
    in it herself than about me.
[15:25] (Flashback) Mom
    Haru-kun, I get to act in the
    continuation as your mother!
[15:30] (Flashback) Maru
    Really?
[15:31] (Flashback) Mom
    It's always been my dream to be
    in a drama in this time slot.
[15:35] (Flashback) Mom
    It's thanks to you that I got the call.
[15:37] (Flashback) Mom
    Thank you so much!
[15:39] Maru
    But...
[15:43] (Flashback) Director
    Cut!

    Are you okay?
[15:47] (Flashback) Staff
    Quick! Call an ambulance!
[15:48] (Flashback) Maru
    Mom?
[15:49] Maru
    She died from a blow to the head.
[15:52] Maru
    The car never made contact with her.
[15:54] Maru
    It was just a terrible accident that
    happened because she was acting her hardest.
[15:58] (Flashback) Dad
    The drama's been canceled.
[16:00] (Flashback) Dad
    You should take some time off.
[16:02] (Flashback) Maru
    No!
[16:04] (Flashback) Maru
    It was Mom's dream to be in that time slot!
[16:07] (Flashback) Maru
    That's why she tried so hard
    and ended up like that!
[16:11] (Flashback) Maru
    There's no way she'd want this
    drama to fail because of her!
[16:19] Maru
    After that, the drama was
    filmed through to the end,

    and it earned record-breaking ratings.
[16:27] Maru
    And then I was forced into
    an indefinite hiatus.
[16:34] Kachi
    I had no idea.
[16:36] Maru
    We were under a gag order.
[16:38] Kachi
    I'm sorry...
[16:39] Kachi
    I...
[16:48] Kachi
    I got my pay.
[16:55] Maru
    Kachi?
[17:07] Kachi
    I'm such a fool.
[17:10] Kachi
    As a child, I was no good at anything.
[17:14] Kachi
    I had no confidence.
[17:15] Kachi
    I was bullied because of it,
[17:17] Kachi
    so I stopped going to school.

    Hi! I'm Maru Sueharu!
[17:38] (Flashback) Kachi

[17:40] (Flashback) Dad
    Sorry, Maru-kun. My kid's
    a big fan of yours.

    Go on, Shiro. Ask him to play with you.

    Let's be friends, Shirou!
[17:55] (Flashback) Maru
    You're amazing, Shirou!
[17:57] (Flashback) Maru
    Look at all these books!
[18:03] (Flashback) Kachi
    H-Hey, Su-chan...
[18:06] (Flashback) Maru
    Hmm?
[18:07] (Flashback) Kachi
    If I ever write a story, I want
    you to play the star in it.
[18:11] (Flashback) Maru
    Yeah, of course! I'll look forward to it!
[18:21] (Flashback) Kachi
    Wait for me, Su-chan.
[18:24] (Flashback) Kachi
    What do you mean, I can't see him again?!
[18:27] (Flashback) Dad
    I'm sorry.
[18:28] (Flashback) Kachi
    But why? What happened?
[18:30] (Flashback) Kachi
    Did I do something to make him hate me?
[18:33] (Flashback) Kachi
    But that's cruel. He promised me...
[18:36] (Flashback) Kachi
    That's too cruel, Su-chan!
[18:39] Kachi
    I wanted to get back at him.
[18:41] Kachi
    I decided to get stronger,
    prettier, and famous,
[18:45] Kachi
    to become the most gorgeous woman ever,
[18:47] Kachi
    and make him regret that he
    didn't come to see me again.
[18:51] Kachi
    But I eventually figured it out.
[18:54] Kachi
    That feeling I had was my first love.
[18:58] Kachi
    I love you, Su-chan. I love you, Su-chan.
[19:03] Kachi
    I love you, Su-chan. I love you, Su-chan.
[19:08] (Flashback) Maru
    I want to put all I have into starting over.
[19:11] Kachi
    He's just as radiant and
    strong as he was back then.
[19:16] Kachi
    I hated him so much,
    but now I'm back to this.
[19:22] Kachi
    First love is a curse, Su-chan.
[19:26] Kachi
    My name is Shirokusa.
[19:28] Kachi
    I was named after "shirotsumekusa,"
    the white clover.
[19:35] Kuroha
    Abe-senpai will sing and dance to
    Child Star at the confession festival.
SIGN    Confession Festival
[19:40] Kuroha
    Then you rush the stage and start
    singing and dancing alongside him,
[19:43] Kuroha
    and you completely steal
    the spotlight from him.
[19:46] Kuroha
    Then you ride the wave and
    confess to his girlfriend...
[19:51] Kuroha
    Wait, if you're even better than Abe-senpai,
[19:54] Kuroha
    does that mean Kachi-san will
    accept your confession?
[19:57] Maru
    That's how it comes across, huh?
[20:00] Maru
    But there's no way she'd do that.
[20:02] Kuroha
    Also, it doesn't make sense.
[20:04] Kuroha
    How does Kachi-san know
    about Abe-senpai's plan?
[20:08] Kuroha
    This is obviously a trap.
[20:11] Kuroha
    She's gonna make you do all this
    and then reject you outright.
[20:15] Kuroha
    It's a plot to kick you as low as you
    can go just when you're riding high.
[20:19] Maru
    Nah, she wouldn't do anything that awful.
[20:21] Kuroha
    Are you gonna do this, then?
[20:25] Maru
    I want to, honestly.
[20:27] Kuroha
    Because Kachi-san might actually
    accept your confession?
[20:30] Maru
    No, it's just because I think it'll be fun.
[20:33] Maru
    It's the perfect thing
    to take Abe down a peg.
[20:37] Kuroha
    The girl you admire might finally look
    your way. You want to ruin that?
[20:41] Maru
    Hey, Kuro... There's something
    I want you to know.
[20:44] Kuroha
    Nope. I don't wanna hear it.
[20:46] Maru
    Listen, I—
[20:48] Kuroha
    Receiving signal! Receiving signal!
[20:51] Maru
    Seriously?
[20:52] Kuroha
    I don't wanna hear it!
[20:53] Kuroha
    You're gonna say you still like Kachi-san,
[20:55] Kuroha
    so we should stop being
    a fake couple, right?
[20:58] Kuroha
    I don't want that!
[21:02] Maru
    It's not that.
[21:04] Maru
    I'm gonna be practicing with
    Tetsuhiko up until the festival,
[21:07] Maru
    so you don't have to come over
    for a while. That's all.
[21:09] Kuroha
    Huh?
[21:10] Maru
    You were opposed to me acting, right?
[21:14] Maru
    Well, I'll probably look pretty
    terrible while I'm practicing,
[21:17] Maru
    so I thought only Tetsuhiko
    should help me out.
[21:19] Kuroha
    Okay, fine. I believe you.
[21:24] Maru
    Don't force yourself to smile.
[21:26] Kuroha
    Idiot.
[21:29] Kuroha
    Idiot! Idiot! Idiot!
[21:32] Kuroha
    I think you can probably act just fine.
[21:35] Kuroha
    As long as you're acting
    for someone else's sake.
[21:38] Kuroha
    That's what it was about when you were a kid
    and your acting made your mom happy, right?
[21:42] Kuroha
    So if you can decide who
    you want to act for,
[21:45] Kuroha
    I know you can get through this.
[21:49] Maru
    You're right.
[21:51] Maru
    Thanks, Kuro.
[21:53] Kuroha
    You're very welcome.
[21:58] Tetsu
    Well, ready to start?
[22:01] Maru
    Yeah.
[22:07] Kuroha
    Haru...

    Yeah.

    Oh?
[01:56] Abe
    I'm worried, Maru-kun.
[01:59] Maru
    About what?
[02:00] Abe
    I'm worried that what will happen today
    might shock you so much that you cry.
[02:06] Maru
    I could say the same about you, Senpai.
[02:14] Tetsu
    To be honest...
[02:15] Tetsu
    I thought this revenge thing of
    yours was really dumb at first.
[02:20] Maru
    Hey!
[02:22] Tetsu
    I mean, does what she did
    really justify that?
[02:25] Maru
    You're asking that now?!
[02:28] Tetsu
    But in a way, you can't help yourself
    when it comes to your first love.
[02:32] Tetsu
    It's a curse, so it makes sense
    that you'd want revenge.

    Don't... come any closer.
[04:16] Maru
    Huh? Oh, sorry.
[04:18] Maru
    I'm glad you came, Shirou.
[04:21] Shirou
    That's a relief.
[04:23] Shirou
    I thought you'd be upset.
[04:25] Maru
    Of course not!
[04:27] Shirou
    Well, you quit being an actor,
[04:30] Shirou
    and you didn't come to see me anymore.
[04:33] Shirou
    So I thought you either forgot about
    me or didn't like me anymore.
[04:37] Maru
    Oh... It's not like that. A lot happened.
[04:41] Maru
    I'm sorry. I know I promised to
    appear in a story you wrote.
[04:49] Maru
    Shirou?
[04:53] Shirou
    You remembered.
[04:55] Maru
    Huh?
[04:56] Shirou
    Nothing... Never mind.
[04:58] Maru
    What have you been up to?
    You going to school?
[05:02] Shirou
    Yeah. I started going back not
    long after you went away.
[05:06] Maru
    Really? I'm glad to hear it.
[05:09] Shirou
    I made up my mind that I'd get stronger
    by the time I saw you again,
[05:13] Shirou
    that I'd work hard at both school and
    sports to get rid of all my weaknesses.
[05:16] Shirou
    But what I worked at the hardest
    on was writing stories.
[05:20] Shirou
    And last year, I was finally
    recognized for it.
[05:23] Maru
    What? Did you debut as a novelist?
[05:25] Shirou
    Yeah, something like that.
[05:27] Maru
    That's awesome!
[05:29] Shirou
    Thanks.
[05:31] Shirou
    All that time, I just wanted
    to catch up to you.
[05:34] Shirou
    I wanted to earn your recognition.
[05:37] Shirou
    I worked hard and did all kinds of
    research so you'd say I was pretty.
[05:41] Maru
    Pretty?
[05:51] Maru
    Kachi?!
[05:53] Kachi
    That's right.
[05:55] Kachi
    I'm Shirou.
[05:57] Kachi
    You misheard that as my name
    when my dad called me "Shiro."
[06:01] Maru
    Oh...
[06:02] Kachi
    I wanted to see you so
    badly for all that time...
[06:05] Kachi
    But I already had.
[06:08] Kachi
    Su-chan, I won the Akutami Award.
[06:11] Kachi
    I'm good enough to write a
    story you can act in now!
[06:16] Kachi
    Well? Do you think I'm pretty now?
[06:19] Kachi
    I tried so hard because it bugged
    me that you thought I was a boy.
[06:23] Kachi
    They're even putting my
    picture in magazines now.
[06:27] Kachi
    Did you know?
[06:29] Maru
    Yeah... of course.
[06:31] Kachi
    But...
[06:46] Kachi
    I was so sad, so vexed...
[06:49] Maru
    I'm sorry! I had absolutely no idea!
[06:52] Kachi
    It's okay. You remembered our promise.
[06:56] Maru
    Kachi...
[06:57] Kachi
    Su-chan...
[06:58] Kachi
    Can I start calling you "Su-chan" again?
[07:00] Maru
    Uh... S-Sure...
[07:02] Kachi
    Could I ask you not to
    call me "Shirou," though?
[07:05] Kachi
    Now that you know I'm a girl and all.
[07:07] Maru
    O-Okay. What should I call you?
[07:10] Kachi
    Shiro.
[07:12] Maru
    Huh?
[07:12] Kachi
    It always drove me crazy to hear
    you call Shida-san "Kuro."
[07:18] Kachi
    If she's Kuro, then I want to be Shiro.
[07:21] Maru
    Okay, got it. I'll call
    you "Shiro" from now on.
[07:24] Kachi
    Okay, Su-chan.
[07:26] Maru
    But wait, Kachi...
[07:27] Kachi
    Shiro!
[07:28] Maru
    Oh, sorry.
[07:30] Maru
    Shiro, what brought all of this on now?
[07:34] Kachi
    Remember when you told me why
    you quit as a child actor?
[07:37] Maru
    Yeah.
[07:38] Kachi
    I had no idea something that
    terrible had happened.
[07:42] Kachi
    And yet, deep inside, I was
    still blaming you for it.
[07:47] Kachi
    I realized that was wrong of me.
[07:49] Kachi
    So I decided to tell you myself.
[07:52] Kachi
    Plus, today's the day you
    return to the stage.
[07:56] Maru
    Yeah, it is.
[07:58] Maru
    Look forward to seeing me.
[08:00] Maru
    My acting and the plot you
    wrote are gonna come together!
[08:04] Maru
    It's gonna be fire! I'll make sure of it!
[08:07] Kachi
    I've wanted...
[08:09] Kachi
    to hear you say that for a long time.
[08:22] Kuroha
    I had a feeling that kid in
    the photo was you, Kachi-san.
[08:26] Kachi
    He's going to be calling
    me "Shiro" from now on.
[08:30] Kuroha
    That doesn't mean anyone's won or lost.

[08:52] Kuroha
    What do you mean?
[08:53] Maru
    You know what I mean.
[08:55] Kuroha
    So I'm "Kuro" and Kachi-san is "Shiro," huh?
[08:58] Kuroha
    That makes it sound like I'm the dark one.

    Wait, you're not jealous, are you?
[09:03] Kuroha
    Wha... Of course I'm not!

    No, that's not right.
[16:12] Maru
    Shiro...
[16:14] Kachi
    Yes?
[16:15] Maru
    I... was in love with you.
[16:20] Kachi
    Huh?
[16:21] Maru
    So when I heard that you'd
    started dating Senpai,
[16:25] Maru
    it was a huge shock.
[16:27] Maru
    The reason I'm on this stage is because
    I saw Abe-senpai as competition,
[16:32] Maru
    and I wanted to get revenge on both of you.
[16:35] Kachi
    Su-chan?

SIGN    37th Hozumino High School Cultural Festival
[18:31] Tetsu
    Senpai, were you playing
    the bad guy on purpose?
[18:35] Abe
    Why do you ask?
[18:36] Tetsu
    "Child Star" is Sueharu's best song.
[18:39] Tetsu
    It makes no sense that you'd use it.
[18:42] Abe
    Oh? I guess you're as
    sharp as the rumors say.
[18:46] Tetsu
    It's true.
[18:48] Tetsu
    Sueharu's a blockhead, though.
[18:50] Abe
    True.
[18:51] Tetsu
    I get the gist of what this was all about,
[18:54] Tetsu
    but why did you decide to play the bad guy?
[18:57] Abe
    Shirokusa-chan is like a sister to me.
[19:02] Abe
    Shirokusa-chan loved
    Maru-kun for a long time,
[19:06] Abe
    even after they stopped seeing each other.
[19:08] Abe
    But then she said she loved him so much
    that she wanted to get him to love her,
[19:13] Abe
    then reject him.
[19:14] Tetsu
    Ah, I get it.
[19:17] Abe
    So she tried pretty hard
    to make herself look good,
[19:19] Abe
    but Maru-kun just wouldn't confess to her.
[19:22] Abe
    And in the midst of all that,
[19:24] Abe
    Shida-san ended up confessing
    to Maru-kun first.
[19:28] Abe
    It was a relief when he didn't accept,
[19:30] Abe
    but they were still close enough that
    she couldn't let her guard down.
[19:33] Abe
    And while she was stressing
    over what she should do,
[19:35] Abe
    she lied that she was going out
    with me in the heat of the moment.
[19:40] Tetsu
    She could've just taken it back right after.
[19:42] Abe
    I told her that, too, but...
[19:45] (Flashback) Kachi
    Coming out and saying it myself
    would be admitting defeat.
[19:49] Abe
    ...was her answer.
[19:51] Tetsu
    So you played the bad guy to get him
    to focus his resentment on you,
[19:55] Tetsu
    and Kachi approached Sueharu
    in the meantime, huh?
[19:59] Abe
    Right.
[20:00] Tetsu
    Why even bother when you don't
    get anything out of it?
[20:02] Abe
    But I do.
[20:04] Tetsu
    Huh?
[20:05] Abe
    I'm a huge fan of the genius
    child actor Maru Sueharu.
[20:10] Abe
    If it brings him back into acting,
    I don't mind being hated.
[20:16] Tetsu
    Senpai...
[20:19] Tetsu
    Damn, you're such a good guy.
[20:21] Abe
    But you hate that about me, don't you?
[20:24] Tetsu
    Yeah, it's true.
[20:26] Tetsu
    I hate how damn confident you are.
[20:31] Tetsu
    Well, Kachi's pretty intense,
[20:34] Tetsu
    but the way Shida-chan made him fall for
    her in a month and a half is just scary.
[20:38] Tetsu
    So I guess Shida-chan won in the end?
[20:41] Abe
    I think they all lost, actually.
[20:50] Kuroha
    Stupid Haru! Stupid Haru! Stupid Haru!
    Stupid Haru! Stupid Haru! Stupid Haru!
[20:56] Kuroha
    Stupid Haru!
[20:59] Tetsu
    She's regretting the hell out of it now.
[21:01] Abe
    Right?
[21:02] Tetsu
    She loved Sueharu so much,
    she just couldn't forgive him
[21:06] Tetsu
    when he rejected her right when
    it was about to come to fruition.
[21:09] Tetsu
    So she rejected him to get even,
[21:12] Tetsu
    but she still loves him,
    so now she's drowning in regret.
[21:16] Tetsu
    They all tried to get one of the others to
    love them just so they could reject them,
[21:20] Tetsu
    and now none of them is
    with the one they wanted.
[21:23] Tetsu
    What a stupid ending.
[21:25] Abe
    Emotions can't be controlled.
[21:28] Abe
    I bet both Shida-san and Shirokusa-chan
    are very pure and devoted at heart.
[21:33] Tetsu
    Are you just so jaded that it's warped you?
[21:36] Tetsu
    But I guess that's just how first love goes.
[21:40] Abe
    Yeah. That's first love for you.
[21:44] Maru
    Why the hell? Why the hell? Why the hell?
[21:48] Maru
    Why...

    Why the hell?!

    How did you get this pizza, anyway?
[08:35] Tetsu
    Oh, about that...
[08:37] Rena
    That was all me!
[08:40] Rena
    Heya!
[08:44] Maru
    Ow! What'd you do that for?!
[08:46] Tetsu
    Shut up.
[08:47] Rena
    Oh, it's nice to meet you, Maru-senpai!
[08:50] Rena
    Here's my card.
[08:51] Maru
    Oh, thanks.
SIGN    Jack of All Trades
SIGN    Asagi Rena
[08:53] Maru
    "Jack of all trades"?
[08:54] Rena
    Yep! I'm Asagi Rena, first-year!
[08:58] Rena
    Tetsu-senpai calls me "Rena,"
    so you can call me that, too!
[09:03] Maru
    Okay, Rena...
[09:04] Maru
    What exactly do you do
    as a jack of all trades?
[09:08] Rena
    Anything you want, depending on
     how much you pay.
[09:11] Maru
    Anything?
[09:13] Maru
    So... even se—
[09:14] Rena
    No sexy stuff.
[09:16] Maru
    Are there no hopes or dreams in this world?!
[09:19] Rena
    Tetsu-senpai, what's the deal with this guy?
[09:22] Rena
    He's so funny!
[09:23] Tetsu
    Dumb, isn't he?
[09:25] Rena
    Well, I think he's pretty funny as a person,
[09:28] Rena
    but to a girl, he's trash.
[09:30] Tetsu
    Oh, you don't have to worry
    about the "sexy stuff" thing.
[09:33] Tetsu
    He's all talk. He doesn't have the guts.
[09:35] Rena
    So that's why he was hoping
    money would be the answer.
[09:37] Maru
    Rena, you're straight-up looking
    down on me now, aren't you?
[09:41] Rena
    Not at all, Maru-paisen.
[09:42] Rena
    I totally respect you.
[09:44] Maru
    I've never felt respected
    by being called "paisen"!
[09:48] Rena
    It's true!
[09:50] Rena
    I just think it's dumb that
    you're kinda perverted.
[09:53] Maru
    Yeah, I'm obviously being made fun of here.
[09:56] Maru
    A younger girl with huge boobs looking down
    on me after meeting me for the first time...
[10:00] Maru
    Wait, isn't that a good thing?
[10:02] Tetsu
    Don't come asking me for approval, stupid Haru.
[10:04] Rena
    That was sexual harassment!
[10:06] Maru
    You guys seriously have no mercy...
[10:09] Maru
    How do you two know each other, anyway?
[10:12] Rena
    We went to the same middle school.
[10:14] Tetsu
    I use her sometimes 'cause
    she's handy to have around,
[10:17] Tetsu
    and she says she thinks you're
    starting to smell like good money.
[10:20] Tetsu
    She insisted on meeting you, so I made
    her pay for introductions with a pizza.
[10:25] Maru
    You're incredible.
[10:26] Maru
    You got me pizza to apologize,
    but you didn't even pay for it?
[10:30] Maru
    At this point, I'm actually impressed.
[10:32] Tetsu
    Enough praise. You're making me blush.
[10:35] Maru
    There wasn't one inch of
    praise in that, Scumhiko!
[10:37] Rena
    Y'know, if I'm being honest, you guys
    don't seem to get along that well.
[10:42] Rena
    Why are you friends?
[10:44] Maru
    Huh? Well, because—
[10:46] Kachi
    S-S-Su-chan!
[10:48] Maru
    O-Oh, it's you, Shiro...
[10:50] Maru
    Wh-What's up? Everything okay?
[10:52] Kachi
    Uh... Yeah... The thing is...
[10:55] Guy
    H-Hey, look!
[10:57] Guy
    What's this? A new development?
    Kachi-san's approaching him?!
[11:00] Goudo
    Guilty!
[11:01] Goudo
    He's guilty for having a childhood
    friend he made a promise to!
[11:04] Uga
    It's okay, Goudo!
[11:06] Uga
    Maru's an idiot, so he didn't realize
    that childhood friend was Kachi-san!
[11:10] Uga
    It's no wonder she hates him now!
[11:12] Uga
    Thank goodness he's so stupid!
[11:14] Meiko
    Shirokusa-san, it's okay.
[11:16] Kachi
    Meiko...
[11:19] Kachi
    Su-chan!
[11:20] Maru
    Y-Yes?
[11:22] Kachi
    Please go out with me!
[11:24] Maru
    Huh?
SIGN    Did she just... confess her love to me?
[11:26] Text
    Wait, did she just... confess her love to me?
[11:29] Maru
    Seriously?!
[11:30] Meiko
    She didn't mean "go out with me."
[11:33] Meiko
    She meant "come with me."
    Right, Shirokusa-san?
[11:36] Kachi
    H-Huh?! Uh, right, r-r-right!
    I didn't mean...
[11:40] Meiko
    It seems Shirokusa-san's
    father knows you, Maru-san.
[11:44] Maru
    Y-Yeah, of all my sponsors,
    he was the nicest to me.
[11:48] Meiko
    It seems Shirokusa-san's father has been
    wondering about you all these years,
[11:53] Meiko
    and he has said he'd like to see
    how you're doing in person.
[11:56] Meiko
    Right?
[11:57] Kachi
    Th-That's right!
[11:59] Kachi
    So I was hoping you'd come
    to my house sometime soon.
[12:02] Kachi
    O-Of course I wouldn't ask you out
    right in the middle of the classroom!
[12:07] Kachi
    D-Don't get the wrong idea... about that!
[12:09] Maru
    Y-Yeah, I guess not.
[12:12] Tetsu
    Kachi, you're a lot more
    useless than I thought.
[12:16] Kachi
    Kai-kun, isn't there something
    you need to apologize to me for?
[12:21] Tetsu
    Huh?
[12:22] Kachi
    I mean uploading that video
    without my permission!
[12:25] Tetsu
    But you're barely in it.
    It's not like it's hurting you.
[12:29] Tetsu
    Why should I have to apologize?
[12:31] Kachi
    Huh?!
[12:32] Kachi
    Y-You... I mean... You fiend!
[12:36] Maru
    Shiro, don't.
[12:38] Maru
    I'll be sure to slug Tetsuhiko later.
[12:40] Maru
    Cut him some slack for my sake.
[12:42] Kachi
    S-Su-chan...
[12:44] Kachi
    W-Well, if you're asking me to,
[12:47] Kachi
    I guess I can let him off the hook.
[12:50] Tetsu
    And now both you and Kachi have forgiven me.
[12:54] Tetsu
    Guess that leaves Shida-chan...
[12:56] Kuroha
    What about me?
[12:58] Kachi
    Ah, Shida-san.
[13:00] Kachi
    What does the girl who
    rejected Su-chan want now?
SIGN    Rejected Him
[13:03] Kuroha
    Okay, listen...
[13:05] Kachi
    Was something I said mistaken?
[13:11] Kuroha
    Um, I... I mean, uh...
[13:18] Kachi
    What's wrong, Su-chan?
[13:20] Kachi
    Are you okay?
[13:24] (Flashback) Kuroha
    No.
[13:29] Rena
    Whoa, Paisen went wild.
[13:32] Tetsu
    Wow.
[13:33] Tetsu
    I guess even an idiot like him
    couldn't handle the trauma
[13:35] Tetsu
    of being rejected in front
    of the entire school.
[13:47] Kachi
    Poor Su-chan.
[13:50] Kachi
    Don't worry.
[13:52] Kachi
    I won't be mean to you like Shida-san was.
[13:58] Kachi
    I like that expression, Shida-san.
[14:00] Kachi
    It befits a homewrecker.
[14:02] Kuroha
    Haru...
[14:03] Kachi
    Shida-san, you see what's going on.
[14:06] Kachi
    Could you stay away from
    Su-chan for a while?
[14:08] Kuroha
    B-But...
[14:10] Kachi
    You're the one who did this to him.
[14:13] Kachi
    Just so you know,
[14:15] Kachi
    if you do anything else to hurt
    Su-chan, I will get rid of you,
[14:18] Kachi
    even if I have to use forbidden wisdom that
    humans have kept hidden in the darkness.

    Tetsuhiko, how'd it go with the press?

[14:54] Maru
    Okay.
SIGN    Kai Tetsuhiko
[14:57] Tetsu
    And things on the web and TV have

    I have a feeling there's
    something behind that.
[15:04] Maru
    Nah, no way.
[15:06] Tetsu
    There's no one at Shida-chan's house, either.
[15:08] Tetsu
    I'll stop by and check
    on her anyway, though.
[15:11] Maru

    She left school really early,

[15:23] Tetsu
    Do you hate her after what happened?
[15:26] Maru
    No, it's not that.
[15:28] Maru
    I mean, what Kuro did to me
[15:31] Maru
    is what I was trying to do to Shiro.
[15:34] Maru
    So I got what I had coming.
[15:36] Maru
    It's not about being mad
    or hating her or anything.
SIGN    Kai Tetsuhiko
[15:39] Maru
    Actually, I feel guilty. And... scared.
[15:43] Tetsu
    Because she betrayed you?
[15:44] Maru
    I don't think she betrayed me.
[15:47] Maru
    What scares me is that I'm too
    dumb to understand how she feels.
[15:52] Maru
    I thought I understood her since
    I was closer to her than anyone,
[15:56] Maru
    but I didn't.
[15:58] Maru
    What should I have done?
[16:07] Tetsu

    So? What are you gonna do?

    Man, I'm hungry.

[16:43] Maru
    Hey!
[16:44] Maru
    Why are you locking and chaining the door?!
[16:46] Maria
    I know you must be tired, Onii-chan.
[16:48] Maru
    Wait, wait, wait! Are you listening?!
[16:51] Maria
    Would you like dinner or a bath?
[16:54] Maria
    Or would you like... me?
[16:55] Maru
    Oh, yeah, if you're asking me that,
     my answer is obviously y—
[16:59] Maru
    Wait! That's not even right!
[17:01] Maru
    Wait just a minute, Momo!
[17:03] Maru
    Listen, Momo! There's a lot I'd like
    to say right now, but first...
[17:07] Maru
    Where did you get the key to my house?!
[17:12] Maru
    Don't try to just laugh it off!
[17:14] Maru
    If you're gonna play dumb,
    just leave right now!
[17:17] Maria
    Oh, I remember now!
    The key fell from the sky!
[17:21] Maria
    I guess it came to me because
    I'm such a good person.
[17:24] (Flashback) Mom
    It's been so long!
[17:26] (Flashback) Mom
    I suppose it'd be okay to lend you the key.
[17:30] Maria
    Oh, my...
[17:32] Maria
    Come, now, Onii-chan. Dinner is ready.
[17:36] Maria
    I tried my hardest today!
    Let's eat it together!
[17:41] Maru
    Momo, you really made this?
[17:44] Maria
    Yes! I interrogated your
    mother a long time ago
[17:47] Maria
    to find out what foods you liked!
[17:59] Maru
    I see. Thanks.
[18:06] Maru
    By the way, Momo...
[18:08] Maru
    You're the one who chased off the press
[18:09] Maru
    and calmed things down online, aren't you?
[18:12] Maria
    Yes, I did what I had to do.
[18:15] Maru
    You saved my skin.
[18:17] Maru
    But what surprises me is that you
    have enough clout to do that now.
[18:22] Maru
    Seriously, it's hard to believe that
    little troublemaker got so popular.
[18:26] Maria
    Come on, Onii-chan. Just forget
    about those days already.
[18:30] Maru
    Like I could forget.
[18:32] Maru
    You put me through so much.
[18:34] Maria
    It really brings back memories, doesn't it?
[18:37] Maria
    I made it this far thanks to you.
[18:41] Maria
    I really am grateful from
    the bottom of my heart.
[18:45] Maria
    Do you realize that?
[18:47] Maru
    When you act all sweet like that,
    there's always an ulterior motive.
[18:51] Maru
    So, I'd like you to tell me why you
    let yourself into my house now.
[18:56] Maria
    I wanted to talk to you,
[18:57] Maria
    in a place where no one would interrupt.
[19:02] Maria
    I later found out why you
    retired from acting.
[19:04] Maria
    I could have come to see
    you anytime I wanted to,
[19:08] Maria
    but I just kept hesitating.
[19:11] Maria
    I wasn't sure if I should,
    and I couldn't find the courage.
[19:15] Maria
    I mean, the way we parted ways...
[19:22] Maria
    So I couldn't do it without
    the right trigger.
[19:25] Maru
    And that video was the trigger?
[19:29] Maria
    When I saw that video, I was so impressed.
[19:31] Maria
    You really were the same
    Sueharu-oniichan I always loved.
[19:36] Maria
    And it also convinced me that you're
    the only one who can save me.

[20:03] Maru
    When did that change?
[20:04] Maria
    Actually, she fell ill last year.
[20:07] Maria
    She recovered quickly, but said she
    wanted to enjoy the rest of her life,
[20:12] Maria
    so she handed everything

    But as long as she's well,

[00:02] Maru
    And how has she "lost her mind," exactly?
[00:05] Midori
    Kuro-nee's been eating
    her meals like normal!
[00:08] Maru
    She's eating like normal?!
[00:10] Midori
    And that's what's so weird!
[00:12] Maru
    She still puts honey on her sashimi, right?
[00:14] Midori
    No, she doesn't.
[00:16] Maru
    Whipped cream on her white rice?
[00:18] Midori
    Unfortunately, no.
[00:20] Akane
    Haru-nii and Dori-nee are
    as hopeless as ever.
[00:23] Akane
    The conversation isn't getting anywhere.
[00:27] Maria
    It sounds like you're having fun,
    Sueharu-oniichan.
[00:31] Midori
    No way!
[00:32] Midori
    Kuro-nee shot you down, so you
    brought another woman here?!
[00:35] Aoi
    H-Haru-niisan...
[00:37] Akane
    How immoral. I misjudged you.
[00:39] Maru
    Y-You've got it all wrong!
[00:40] Maru
    We were both child actors.
    Her name's Momosaka Maria.
[00:43] Midori
    Momosaka Maria? The one from
    The Perfect Little Sister?!
[00:47] Maria
    Who are they?
[00:49] Maru
    They're the younger sisters of Kuroha,
     the girl you met today.
[00:53] Maru
    They live next door, so they've always
    been like my own little sisters.
[00:56] Maria
    Oh...
[00:58] Maru
    The big one is the second daughter, Midori.
[01:00] Maru
    Middle school third-year.
    A bit violent, but athletic.
[01:03] Maru
    She plays tennis on the national level.
[01:05] Midori
    You didn't need to call me violent!
[01:07] Maru
    That's the third daughter, Aoi-chan.
    Middle school first-year.
[01:10] Maru
    Shy, but kind. She's basically an angel.
[01:13] Aoi
    Gosh, Haru-niisan, you give
    me too much praise.
[01:16] Maru
    And that's the youngest, Akane.
[01:18] Maru
    Middle school first-year,
    and Aoi-chan's twin.
[01:21] Maru
    She's a prodigy who passed level 1 of
    the Global Mathematics Certification.
[01:24] Akane
    That's not such a big deal.
[01:26] Maru
    Including Kuroha, they're known
    as the "Colorful Sisters."
[01:30] Maria
    So they're basically like
    my own sisters, then?
[01:33] Maria
    You can call me "Momo-neesan" if you want.
[01:38] Maria
    Ow!
[01:38] Maru
    Cut it out.
[01:39] Maria
    But Sueharu-oniichan can
    only be my big brother.
[01:45] Midori
    Don't you think you're clinging
    to him a bit too much?
[01:49] Maria
    Are you jealous?
[01:51] Midori
    No, I'm not jealous.
[01:52] Midori
    Anyway, I'm never calling you Momo-neesan!
[01:56] Maria
    Really?
[01:58] Maria
    And here I was thinking about uploading
    a photo of us together
[02:01] Maria
    on social media to celebrate meeting you.
[02:04] Maria
    It would get you a lot
    of attention for sure!
[02:06] Maria
    You could brag to your friends!
[02:08] Midori
    Hmph! Don't think you can bait me with that!
[02:10] Maria
    Aw, but I just wanted us to be friends.
[02:14] Midori
    W-Well, it's not like I'm
    rejecting you personally.
[02:17] Maria
    Oh, that's good!
[02:18] Maria
    You're so easy, Midori-chan! I love it!
[02:21] Maru
    You let the truth slip out.
[02:25] Midori
    Stop messing with me!
[02:27] Maru
    Look, Momo, it's not like you're a neighbor.
[02:30] Maru
    You should go home.
[02:31] Maria
    But I wouldn't mind spending the night.
[02:35] Midori
    Sueharu, you little...
[02:37] Maru
    Chill out, Midori!
[02:38] Maru
    Damn it, Momo, you're doing this on purpose!
[02:40] Maria
    Whatever do you mean?
[02:42] Maru
    Don't play dumb!
[02:43] Maria
    Are you going to punish me?
[02:45] Maria
    By playing doctor like you
    loved to do six years ago?
[02:50] Midori
    Sueharu!
[02:51] Aoi
    Haru-niisan's a pervert.
[02:53] Akane
    Haru-nii is a lecher.
[02:55] Maru
    Momo!

    Aw, I'm just kidding.

[04:29] Maria
    It seems like you're dealing with an emergency,
    so I'll leave for today,
[04:33] Maria
    but please consider coming
    back to show business, Sueharu-oniichan!
[04:41] Midori
    I told you!
[04:43] Midori
    All of Kuro-nee's memories from the
    time she confessed to you and got rejected
[04:48] Midori
    up until the cultural festival
    are completely gone!
[04:51] Maru
    Wha...
[04:51] Maru
    Hang on, Midori.
[04:53] Maru
    How do you know Kuro confessed
    to me and got rejected?
[04:57] Midori
    Well, of course Kuro-nee wouldn't tell me!
[05:00] Midori
    But it's obvious from the way
    she acts and stuff, you know?
[05:03] Maru
    I never thought Midori
    could be so sensitive.
[05:05] Midori
    Excuse me?! I'm a girl, you know!
    I can tell these things!
[05:09] Maru
    You could act more like a girl, then.
[05:14] Maru
    Okay, sorry. You're very much a girl.
[05:18] Midori
    Hmph. As long as you know.
[05:20] Midori
    Wh-Where are you looking, you pervert?!
[05:24] Maru
    I give! I give!
[05:26] Midori
    But seriously, what are you gonna
    do about Kuro-nee, Sueharu?
[05:31] Midori
    Hey, what's wrong with you?
[05:32] Akane
    Dori-nee, bearing in mind
    everything that's happened,
[05:35] Akane
    there's no doubt that Haru-nii
    is under a lot of stress, too.
[05:39] Akane
    It's dangerous to push him.
[05:40] Akane
    First of all, given the way
    Kuro-nee shot him down,
[05:43] Akane
    he should be bedridden.
[05:45] Akane
    On top of that, the video of it was
    uploaded and got over a million views.
[05:49] Akane
    That's suicide level.
[05:50] Akane
    If you tell him he pushed Kuro-nee to
    the point that she lost her memories,
[05:55] Akane
    he'll have no choice but to commit seppuku.
[05:59] Aoi
    H-Haru-niisan?!
[06:00] Akane
    Sorry, Haru-nii. That's not
    what I was trying to do.
[06:06] Akane
    Ow.
[06:07] Maru
    Since you're younger, the apology's enough.
[06:10] Maru
    It's your elders' job to
    smile and forgive you.
[06:13] Akane
    Haru-nii...
[06:14] Midori
    Whose quote was that?
[06:16] Maru
    Ma-chan-san of Acid Snake.
[06:18] Midori
    You know her?! From a drama or what?!
[06:21] Midori
    I'm a huge fan of hers!
[06:23] Midori
    I heard her new song's
    gonna be really extreme!
[06:26] Midori
    Do you know anything about it?
[06:27] Maru
    No, I haven't had any contact
    with her since I retired.
[06:30] Aoi
    So, Haru-niisan, Kuro-neesan says she'll get
    you in the morning because she wants to talk.
[06:37] Midori
    Don't try to get out of it, Sueharu.
[06:39] Maru
    Okay, fine.
[06:41] Akane
    Haru-nii, are you going to
    return to show business?
[06:44] Maru
    Where'd that come from?
    I haven't decided yet.
[06:48] Akane
    If you did return to show business,
     I'd be very proud,
[06:53] Akane
    but also sad.
[06:55] Akane
    I wouldn't try to stop you, though.
[06:58] Maru
    Akane...
[06:59] Akane
    If there's one thing I can say, it's that...
[07:02] Akane
    Whether you choose show business or love,
[07:06] Akane
    don't choose from a negative mindset
    of running away from love.
[07:09] Akane
    I want you to make the choice
    with a positive mindset.
[07:12] Akane
    It'll be one of the biggest
    choices you make in your life.
[07:17] Maru
    Thanks, Akane.
[07:22] Akane
    Haru-nii... m-my hands...
[07:34] Kuroha
    Haru. Good morning.
[07:35] Maru
    H-Hey, good morning.
[07:39] Maru
    Kuro, how much do you remember?
[07:42] Maru
    What's the last memory you have?
[07:44] Kuroha
    Just before summer break started.
[07:46] Kuroha
    I remember everything up to when
    I decided to confess to you.
[07:51] Kuroha
    I watched the video,
    and I have no idea why I did that
[07:54] Kuroha
    even though I know I love you.
[07:56] Kuroha
    What do you think, Haru?
[07:58] Kuroha
    Do you still like me, even after
    I did something so awful?
[08:01] Maru
    D-Do I still...
[08:04] (Flashback) Kuroha
    No.
[08:07] Kuroha
    It's okay, Haru. You don't
    have to say any more.
[08:09] Kuroha
    I know I hurt you really badly.
[08:14] Kuroha
    I'm sorry.
[08:15] Maru
    Kuro...
[08:17] Kuroha
    But I want to make it up to you.
[08:22] Maru
    Uh, sorry... I didn't mean to...
[08:26] Kuroha
    So it's that bad.
[08:30] Kuroha
    Never mind. It's nothing.
[08:32] Kuroha
    I can still be close to you, right?
[08:35] Maru
    Of course! Why are you even asking?
[08:37] Kuroha
    I want to be someone you can trust again.
[08:41] Maru
    It's not like that!
[08:42] Maru
    I'm not trying to put any
    blame on you at all!
[08:45] Maru
    I'm sure you just rejected me because
    I did something dumb again.
[08:50] Kuroha
    Then...
[08:52] Kuroha
    Let's start over, Haru.
[08:54] Maru
    Start over?
[08:56] Kuroha
    I think we just started buttoning
    up from the wrong hole.
[08:59] Kuroha
    If we start over with the first buttonhole,
    we won't have any more problems.
[09:04] Kuroha
    Am I wrong?
[09:05] Maru
    No, you're not wrong.
[09:07] Maru
    Kuro, I should be asking you.
[09:10] Maru
    Please stay by my side.
[09:11] Maru
    I know we'll get over this trauma!
[09:15] Kuroha
    Thanks.

[09:24] Maru
    H-Hey, Shiro. What's up?
[09:31] (Flashback) Kachi
    The press might be waiting for
    you in front of the school.
[09:35] (Flashback) Kachi
    Oh, but Shida-san will be fine, right?
[09:39] (Flashback) Maru
    Shiro, you're way too unfriendly with Kuro.
[09:42] (Flashback) Maru
    I'm not trying to force you to be friends,
[09:45] (Flashback) Maru
    but it's not cool to try to leave her out.
[09:49] Maru
    I thought I was doing the right thing.
[09:51] Kachi
    Hey...
[09:53] Kachi
    Shida-san left school early yesterday.
[09:56] Kachi
    Is she okay now?
[09:58] Maru
    Actually, she seems to
    have a bit of amnesia.
[10:02] Kachi
    Amnesia?
[10:05] Maru
    That's what's going on.
[10:07] Kuroha
    Ahem!
[10:08] Kuroha
    Haru, you seem to be pretty good
    friends with Kachi-san now.
[10:12] Kuroha
    What's that about?
[10:15] Kachi
    You're curious about our relationship?
[10:17] Kuroha
    Well, yes. Just a little.
[10:21] Kachi
    I don't think Shida-san has
    actually lost her memories.
[10:25] Maru
    Huh? What're you basing that on?
[10:28] Kachi
    Girls' intuition.
[10:31] Maru
    Shiro, leave this to me.

    I've got a great idea.

    Midori told me your sense

[11:01] (Flashback) Kuroha
    Aw, octopus wieners! How cute!

    I can't!

    So unless it's something bad*
    enough to cause amnesia,

    Er, no... okay, yes, I would.
[11:41] Kuroha
    Then what would happen if
    you moved closer to me?

    I get it. You flipped it around.

    Are you planning to join some acting agency?

    If I do go back, that'll be the plan, yeah.

    If you get super busy with constant work,
     will you quit school?
[15:50] Tetsu
    You see?
[15:51] Tetsu
    Shouldn't you enjoy doing high school

[15:55] Tetsu
    That's all I was thinking.

    You can go into show business as an adult,

    If you want Sueharu to star
    in a story you wrote,

    you don't have to make it
     into a film or TV show.

    You can make it on our Ultramarine Channel.

    Am I wrong?
[16:28] Kachi
    Just who do you think I am?
[16:31] Kachi
    There's no one who can bring out
    the best in Su-chan like I can.
[16:35] Kuroha
    I feel like you're only telling us
    the most convenient parts of this.
[16:40] Kuroha
    Frankly, talking about doing
    fun stuff together isn't you.
[16:46] Kuroha
    There's a deeper reason
    for this, isn't there?
[16:49] Tetsu
    Impressive, Shida-chan.
    I won't say there isn't one.
[16:54] Tetsu
    But that doesn't mean everything
    I just said was a lie.
[16:57] Tetsu
    I promise you that.

    We won't ask any more, then.
[17:02] Kachi
    Su-chan...
[17:04] Sueharu
    Tetsuhiko won't tell us any more than
    he wants to anyway, even if we ask.
[17:09] Maru
    And as much as I hate to admit it,
    this honestly sounds like fun to me.

[19:38] Maria
    That's my Sueharu-oniichan! Well done!
[19:44] Shun
    So what do you say, Maru-chan?
    Gonna make a comeback?
[19:47] Shun
    You are, right?
[19:48] Maru
    Well, actually... I'm having trouble deciding.
[19:52] Maru
    I'd have to balance it with school.
[19:53] Shun
    What are you talking about?
[19:55] Shun
    This is the time to strike it rich!
[19:57] Shun
    You shouldn't be worrying
    about going to school.
[20:00] Shun
    Right?
[20:01] Maru
    Well, I mean, uh...
[20:04] Shun
    Shida-chan, you want to
    make your debut, right?
[20:07] Shun
    Don't you?
[20:08] Kuroha
    Um, about that...
[20:10] Shun
    You're not going to tell
    me you don't, are you?
[20:16] Kuroha
    Yes, I came here today to decline that offer.
[20:23] Shun
    Shida-chan, if you debut
    with Maru-chan right now,
[20:26] Shun
    you can make 100 million in three years.
[20:30] Shun
    And Maru-chan, you could make
    300 million in three years.
[20:33] Shun
    If all goes as I'm planning it,
    those amounts are entirely possible.
[20:36] Maru
    Three hundred million...
[20:38] Maru
    Tetsuhiko! If I make that much,
[20:41] Maru
    I could ask Rena to do pervy stuff
    and she wouldn't blab, right?!
[20:44] Tetsu
    The fact that your mind went there
    is so disgusting, even I'm shocked.
[20:47] Kuroha
    Haru...
[20:48] Kachi
    Su-chan...
[20:50] Maria
    Don't worry. I'll train you all
    over again from the inside out.
[20:57] Shun
    Actually, I've got a big sponsor that
    wants Maru-chan to star in a commercial.
[21:03] Shun
    They'll be dropping by here later.
[21:05] Shun
    I'd like you to just meet
    them and say hello.
[21:08] Shun
    And if you're also in the commercial,
    Shida-chan, it'll be even bigger news!
[21:12] Shun
    You'll do it, right, Shida-chan?
    We're talking 100 million here.
[21:16] Kuroha
    Well... I do appreciate the offer,
[21:20] Kuroha
    but I'm sorry.
[21:21] Shun
    Didn't you just say you appreciated it?
[21:23] Shun
    Then what reason is there not to do it?
[21:26] Kuroha
    I'm saying... Money is important,
[21:29] Kuroha
    but my priorities are those close to—
[21:30] Shun
    With money, you could make life
    easier for all those close to you.
[21:35] Shun
    Don't you want to take good
    care of your parents?
[21:37] Kuroha
    Of course I do, but...
[21:40] Shun
    Then do it. Get into show business.
[21:43] Maru
    Hey—
[21:43] Kuroha
    As I've told you several times now,
[21:45] Kuroha
    I came here today to decline—
[21:47] Shun
    Shida-chan, you're no fun at all.
[21:50] Shun
    Maybe your parents didn't raise you right?
[22:06] Maru
    Don't you dare make fun
    of my childhood friend.

    Let go!
[01:10] Tetsu
    Damn it!
[01:11] Maru
    You can't!
[01:12] Shun
    Hey, call the police.
[01:14] Shun
    A little hoodlum's attacking me.
[01:18] Shun
    What did you say? I'll be right there!
[01:22] Shun
    All of you, stay right here!
[01:26] Maru
    What do we do now?!
[01:27] Tetsu
    I didn't hurt him.
[01:29] Tetsu
    We're the only ones in here.
[01:31] Tetsu
    We all just need to testify
    that nothing happened.
[01:33] Maru
    And what about the wine?
[01:35] Maru
    There's no missing that.
[01:37] Tetsu
    Just say that moron tripped and
    dumped it all over his own head.
[01:41] Maru
    Of course!
[01:42] Maru
    This is the first time you've
    seemed so reliable to me!
[01:45] Kachi
    I'll testify that way, too.
[01:47] Kachi
    I mean, he's just too much.
[01:49] Maria
    And if necessary, I'll—
[01:51] Kuroha
    Hold it.
[01:53] Kuroha
    Haru, as your big sister,
[01:55] Kuroha
    I think throwing wine on
    him and lying is going too far.
[01:59] Maru
    Well, I guess...
[02:00] Kuroha
    And the idea of going back
    into show business...
[02:03] Maru
    It's gonna be tough now, huh?
[02:05] Maru
    He'll probably go around spreading
    a lot of half-truths,
[02:09] Maru
    which will make other agencies wary, too.
[02:12] Kuroha
    Haru, you're such an idiot.
[02:12] Dad
    What happened?
[02:14] Shun
    Allow me to explain that.
[02:20] Dad
    Well, you sure have grown up, Maru-chan.
[02:22] Dad
    Remember me? I'm Kachi Souichirou
    of Kozuka Pharmaceuticals.
[02:26] Dad
    Or maybe you'd remember
    me better as Shiro's dad?
[02:30] Maru
    I-It's good to see you again!
[02:32] Kachi
    You're the one making the commercial?
[02:34] Dad
    You're here, too, Shiro?
[02:36] Dad
    And all of you?
[02:38] Dad
    Could you explain what happened
    in a way that I can understand?
SIGN    Osamake: Romcom Where
    The Childhood Friend Won't Lose
[02:50] Dad
    I see. So that's what happened.
[02:53] Kuroha
    Haru said what he said for my sake.
[02:56] Kuroha
    So just call it my fault.
[02:58] Maru
    Kuro...
[03:00] Dad
    I know how you feel,
    but that's not the issue.
[03:03] Dad
    You understand, don't you?
[03:07] Kachi
    I'm also convinced that Su-chan did
    the right thing as human being.
[03:11] Kachi
    So no matter what the law says,
     I'll back Su-chan.
[03:15] Dad
    I know how you feel, too, but...
[03:18] Kachi
    Who decided that the only way
    to hurt someone is physically?
[03:22] Kachi
    Words are sharp blades, too.
[03:25] Kachi
    And he hurt all of us with his verbal blades.
[03:28] Kachi
    Su-chan was only protecting us.
[03:32] Maria
    Considering all of your opinions together,
[03:34] Maria
    my conviction compels me to
    support Sueharu-oniichan,
[03:38] Maria
    so I would like this to
    be resolved peacefully.
[03:40] Maria
    Would that be all right?
[03:42] Maria
    But of course, Shun-san,
    you won't agree with that.
[03:45] Shun
    Damn right I won't!
[03:46] Shun
    I'm the victim here! Me!
[03:49] Tetsu
    You're—
[03:50] Maru
    Don't, Tetsuhiko.
[03:51] Maria
    Well, then...
[03:53] Maria
    Why don't we have a commercial contest?
[03:57] Maru
    Uh... Momo?
[03:58] Maria
    Shun-san, if you involve the police,
    Sueharu-oniichan won't join your agency, right?
[04:03] Maria
    Which means, naturally,
    there'll be no profit for you.
[04:06] Maria
    That isn't really what you want, is it?
[04:10] Shun
    That's true.
[04:11] Maria
    So here's my suggestion.
[04:13] Maria
    We'll have a commercial contest.
[04:14] Maria
    If you win, Sueharu-oniichan
    will join your agency
[04:18] Maria
    and do whatever work you want him to.
[04:20] Maria
    But if Sueharu-oniichan wins,
[04:23] Maria
    you won't file a police report,
[04:25] Maria
    and even if he tries to join another agency,
[04:27] Maria
    you won't do anything to
    interfere with his decision.
[04:30] Maria
    That works for you, right?
[04:35] Shun
    Okay. That's fine.
[04:37] Maria
    Sir, would you mind if we
    made two proposals for the commercial
[04:40] Maria
    you wanted Sueharu-oniichan
    to do if he came back,
[04:42] Maria
    one produced by the agency's side and
    one produced by Onii-chan's side?
[04:46] Dad
    Sure. That itself should
    draw a lot of attention.
[04:49] Maria
    What do you say, Sueharu-oniichan?
    Will you compete?
[04:53] Maru
    Yeah, I'll do it.
[04:54] Maria
    Then we'll set up a special site
    to post the two commercials on.
[04:57] Maria
    The viewers will vote on them,
[04:59] Maria
    and the one that gets the most
    votes wins. How does that sound?
[05:02] Kuroha
    Haru won't stand a chance!
[05:05] Kuroha
    Even he can't do all that by himself!
[05:07] Maria
    Onii-chan told me earlier about
    the Ultramarine Channel.
[05:10] Maria
    He said it was Tetsuhiko-san's idea.
[05:13] Maria
    I think it sounds wonderful.
    Such a perfect teenage activity.
[05:17] Maria
    I kind of admire that.
[05:19] Maria
    Perhaps you could call the members of the
    Ultramarine Channel the "Ultramarine Alliance"?
[05:24] Maria
    With these members, I think
    you'd stand a very good chance.
SIGN    Commercial Contest Rules
SIGN    The original budget allotted for the
SIGN    commercial will be divided evenly between
SIGN    both production teams, and Kozuka Pharmaceuticals
SIGN    will create the site both commercials
SIGN    will be published on.
[05:28] Maria
    The contest will begin in one
    week and last three days.
[05:31] Maria
    A shorter work period will prevent the
    agency from hiring a production team,
[05:36] Maria
    putting both sides on more even footing.
[05:38] Shun
    I'm willing to give them
    that much of a handicap.
[05:41] Maria
    Sir, can we ask you to help Sueharu-oniichan's
     team get the staff they need?
[05:47] Dad
    I'll arrange it.
[05:48] Maria
    Now the conditions for both
    teams are basically equal.
[05:52] Maru
    I just want to make sure of one thing.
[05:54] Maru
    Will you be in our commercial, Momo?
[05:56] Maria
    I want to show you how much
    I've grown in six years,
[05:59] Maria
    so I'm planning to appear
    in Shun-san's commercial.
[06:02] Maru
    Bu—I was really counting on your
    fame to give us a boost, though!
[06:05] Maru
    My life depends on this! Please don't!
[06:08] Kuroha
    Haru...
[06:09] Kachi
    Su-chan...
[06:10] Tetsu
    Groveling is not what you should
    be doing after all this.
[06:13] Maria
    I'll do my very best!
[06:16] Maria
    How does that sound?
[06:18] Kachi
    Wait.
[06:19] Kachi
    There's one more condition I'd like to add.
[06:24] Maru
    Momo, are you sure you didn't want to add the
    condition that you'd quit the agency if I won?
[06:30] Maria
    Huh?
[06:31] Maru
    You asked me to save you before.
[06:34] Maru
    You meant from that president, didn't you?
[06:36] Maria
    Thank you for mentioning that.
[06:38] Maria
    I'll add that condition in secret later.

    I promise I'll protect you, Maria.
[07:30] (Flashback) Maria
    Onee-chan...
[07:32] Maria
    When she graduated from middle school,
[07:34] Maria
    the two of us ran away from home.
[07:37] Maria
    Despite her excellent grades,
    my sister didn't go on to college.
[07:40] Maria
    She put all her effort
    into working to raise me.
[07:44] Maria
    I hated it.
[07:46] Maria
    I hated everything in the
    world that made her suffer,
[07:49] Maria
    and I hated my powerless
    self for holding her back.
[07:54] Maria
    One day, I was scouted by the agency's
    president at that time, Nina Hardy.
[07:59] Maria
    I joined the agency,
    hoping it would make things
[08:01] Maria
    at least a little bit easier for my sister.
[08:04] Maria
    It was there that I met Sueharu-oniichan,
[08:06] Maria
    my destined one.
[08:10] (Flashback) Maru
    You always look so timid.
[08:13] (Flashback) Maru
    Is it fun to live like that?
[08:15] (Flashback) Maria
    I'm not like you.
[08:17] (Flashback) Maria
    I wasn't blessed with good
    fortune like you are!
[08:20] (Flashback) Maria

    but I did anyway. Sorry.
[09:59] Maria
    You shouldn't have watched it!
     It's too embarrassing!
[10:05] Eri
    I liked it. It had a classic feel to it.
[10:08] Maria
    Our side is more capable,
[10:09] Maria
    so the idea was that a popular actress
    and high video quality should be enough.

    Oh, yeah. You've grown into a great actor.
[12:55] Maria
    You watched the commercial?
[12:57] Maru
    After seeing that, I can't let myself lose.
[13:00] Maria
    You still won't admit defeat?
[13:02] Maru
    No way. I'll show you everything
    I've got right now.
[13:09] Maria
    Onii-chan...
[13:11] Eri
    Who was that on the phone?
[13:13] Maria
    The contest isn't over yet.
[13:16] Eri
    Huh?
[13:21] Maria
    Sueharu-oniichan is back.
[13:30] Maru
    Kuro, Shiro... you okay?
[13:33] Kuroha
    Yeah.
[13:34] Kachi
    I'm nervous,
[13:35] Kachi
    but more than that, I'm excited.
[13:38] Kachi
    I never even dreamed that I'd
    be able to act alongside you.
[13:42] Maru
    Okay.
[13:45] AD
    We're starting!
[13:48] Director
    Action!
[15:08] Eri
    This is a continuation of
    the commercial, isn't it?
[15:10] Maria
    They were trying to make the casual,
[15:12] Maria
    everyday theme of the commercial
    feel more precious?
[15:15] Eri
    Sueharu-kun is just too amazing.
[15:18] Eri
    My heart's actually pounding.
[15:20] Maria
    I can't make up a difference like this.
[15:24] Maria
    I...
[15:27] Maria
    can still chase after him.
[15:29] Maria
    I'm not lonely anymore. I'm not alone.
[15:33] Maria
    Because Sueharu-oniichan is
    waiting at the end of my path.
[15:38] Eri
    Maria, I'm happy for you.
[15:41] Maria
    Yeah.
[15:46] All
    Cheers!
[15:49] Tetsu
    Our commercial won easily,
    with more than twice the votes.
[15:53] Maru
    That's so good! Carbs for the win!
[15:55] Kachi
    Glad to hear it, Su-chan.
    You haven't eaten for all this time.
[15:59] Kuroha
    You shouldn't wolf it down, though.
[16:01] Kuroha
    You're making your big sister worry a bit.
[16:03] Tetsu
    Hey, he had to lose all that
    weight for the shoot.
[16:06] Tetsu
    Let him eat all he wants.

    You really are a pro, huh?

    The Ultramarine Alliance is
    about having fun, right?
[16:13] Maru
    Giving it your all is what makes it fun.
[16:15] Tetsu
    How dumb are you, man?
[16:17] Maru
    I don't wanna hear that from you.
[16:26] Kachi
    Kai-kun, my dad says he's done
    talking to the principal,
[16:30] Kachi
    and he's waiting at the gate.
[16:35] Tetsu
    This is the course of action I came
    up with for the Ultramarine Alliance.
[16:39] Dad
    Got it.
[16:42] Dad
    Oh, right.
[16:43] Dad
    I took the liberty of looking
     into your background.
[16:46] Tetsu
    This is why I hate rich people.
[16:49] Dad
    Are you trying to use the Ultramarine
    Alliance as a tool to get revenge
[16:52] Dad
    against Hardy Shun, your father?
[16:56] Dad
    Did you approach Maru-chan because
[16:58] Dad
    he was the top star at the agency your
    despised father is connected to?
[17:07] Tetsu
    Well, the Ultramarine Alliance
    will be counting on your support.
[17:10] Dad
    I'll take care of all the legal matters.
[17:13] Dad
    See you next time.
[17:17] Tetsu
    This is why I hate adults.
[17:19] Abe
    I think I hate adults, too.
[17:22] Tetsu
    I'm sorry. Who are you?
[17:25] Tetsu
    Strangers are scary.
[17:26] Abe
    I was working on this
    behind the scenes, too,
[17:29] Abe
    so I wanted to know how it ended.
[17:30] Tetsu
    You were?
[17:32] Abe
    If Hardy Shun were to try anything,
[17:34] Abe
    I was to ask my dad to save you.
SIGN    His father is a major player in show business
SIGN    Abe Hajime
[17:37] Tetsu
    What the hell would you
    stand to gain from that?
[17:39] Abe
    Well, I want to see even
    more of Maru-kun in action.
[17:43] Tetsu
    And? What did you want to know?
[17:45] Abe
    The win and loss records
    of your principal members.
[17:48] Abe
    It can be from your own perspective.
[17:50] Tetsu
    And what's your judgment?
[17:51] Abe
    Total victory for Maru-kun
    and Shirokusa-chan, I think.
[17:55] Abe
    It boosted both of their
    reputations in the industry.
[17:57] Tetsu
    It's guaranteed that the scumbag
    president is the only loser here.
[18:01] Tetsu
    But I think the top winner was Shida-chan,
[18:04] Tetsu
    with me in second.
[18:05] Abe
    Shida-san was the top winner?
[18:09] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I don't want Haru to go into show business.
[18:13] (Flashback) Kuroha
    If you're going to take someone's side,
[18:16] (Flashback) Kuroha
    it's sure to be the most profitable one.
[18:19] (Flashback) Kuroha
    And this time, taking my side
    will best serve your purpose.
[18:22] (Flashback) Kuroha
    Am I wrong?
[18:23] (Flashback) Tetsu
    You really do have a good eye.
[18:26] (Flashback) Tetsu
    I want to get Sueharu to
    take part in my plan,
[18:29] (Flashback) Tetsu
    so I'll be taking your side in this.
[18:32] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I don't want our goals to end up clashing,
[18:35] (Flashback) Kuroha
    so let me ask this first.
[18:37] (Flashback) Kuroha
    What is your goal?
[18:41] (Flashback) Kuroha
    There's someone in show business
    that you don't like, right?
[18:46] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I've been thinking that must be
    why you're friends with Haru.
[18:51] (Flashback) Tetsu
    What makes you think that?
[18:55] (Flashback) Kuroha
    Just a hunch after seeing
    the way you've acted.
[18:58] (Flashback) Tetsu
    If you've figured out that much,
    I guess I can tell you a little.
[19:02] (Flashback) Tetsu
    The president of Sueharu's
    agency is a scumbag.
[19:05] (Flashback) Tetsu
    I kinda have a connection to him.
[19:08] (Flashback) Tetsu
    That's it.
[19:11] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I'm going to pretend I have amnesia.
[19:14] (Flashback) Tetsu
    Huh?
[19:15] (Flashback) Kuroha
    It's cowardly, but I think
    it's the best option.
[19:19] (Flashback) Kuroha
    If I have amnesia, Haru will try to help me.
[19:23] (Flashback) Kuroha
    Then, if I take my time
    getting closer to him,
[19:25] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I can erase his trauma.
[19:27] (Flashback) Tetsu
    You think you can do that?
[19:29] (Flashback) Kuroha
    It's not about whether I can or can't.
[19:31] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I'm going to.
[19:32] (Flashback) Kuroha
    If Haru goes to meet with
    that agency president,
[19:35] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I plan to go with him.
[19:37] (Flashback) Kuroha
    Haru hates it when people are
    mean to those close to him
[19:39] (Flashback) Kuroha
    even more than when they're mean to him,
[19:41] (Flashback) Kuroha
    so if the president is a
    scumbag like you say,
[19:45] (Flashback) Kuroha
    he's bound to say some nasty things.
[19:47] (Flashback) Kuroha
    If that happens, his return to
    acting is dead in the water.
[19:50] Tetsu
    Sueharu was so scared of Shida-chan,
    but suddenly he's back to normal.
[19:55] Tetsu
    Kachi had a huge advantage,
    but now they're both even.
[19:59] Tetsu
    No matter how you look at it,
    Shida-chan's the winner.
[20:02] Abe
    True.
[20:03] Tetsu
    And I don't need to explain
    why I'm second, right?
[20:07] Tetsu
    Just look at how the Ultramarine
    Alliance came together.
[20:10] Abe
    I will say that you did a great job there.
[20:13] Tetsu
    And there's one more who
    won big in all this.
[20:17] Maria
    So anyway,
[20:18] Maria
    I'm Momosaka Maria, and I've just
    transferred to this school.
[20:22] Maria
    I'm glad to meet you!
[20:23] Both
    What?!
[20:25] Kachi
    What's the meaning of this, Su-chan?!
[20:27] Kuroha
    Haru, explain!
[20:28] Maria
    Sueharu-oniichan said he wanted me here.
[20:32] Maru
    No, no! Momo asked me to save her!
[20:35] Maru
    She wanted to be rescued
    from that president!
[20:37] Maria
    No, I didn't.
[20:39] Maria
    Although I did get along
    poorly with Shun-san,
[20:42] Maria
    so it's true that the timing was perfect.
[20:45] Maru
    Huh? Wait, what are you saying?
[20:48] Maria
    I was just starved for love!
[20:51] Maria
    So I used quitting the
    agency as an opportunity
[20:54] Maria
    to rely on you to get me
    transferred into this school!
[20:57] Maria
    I hardly got to attend school at all while
    I was acting, so I'm really excited!
[21:03] Maria
    Let's continue to be good friends, okay,
[21:06] Maria
    Senpai?
[21:09] Both
    Huh?!
[21:11] Maru
    Oops! Forgot I had something to do...
[21:14] Kachi
    Su-chan!
[21:15] Kuroha
    Stop right there!
[21:18] Rena
    If you want Paisen, he's over there.
[21:20] Kuroha
    Thanks!
[21:21] Rena
    All good, Paisen.
[21:24] Maru
    You saved my skin, Rena.
[21:26] Rena
    For an older kid, you're a
    real handful, you know that?
[21:32] Rena
    By the way, Paisen, why are you
    friends with Tetsu-senpai?
[21:36] Rena
    All you guys do is fight.
[21:37] Maru
    Huh? Oh...
[21:39] Maru
    Well, when most people find
    out I was a child actor,
[21:42] Maru
    they expect me to do something for them.
[21:45] Maru
    But Tetsuhiko...
[21:47] Maru
    He's the only one who tries
    to do stuff with me.
[21:49] Maru
    Basically, he stands beside me.
[21:53] Maru
    That's why we're friends.
[21:56] Rena
    You and Tetsu-senpai are kind of alike, huh?
[22:00] Maru
    Don't say he and I are alike,
     even as a joke!
[22:03] Maru
    That actually hurts!
[22:05] Rena
    Wow, you're a pain.
[22:06] Kuroha
    Found you, Haru!
[22:08] Maru
    Kuro!
[22:21] Kuroha
    Haru, dinner tonight is
    Hamburg steaks, apparently.
[22:25] Kuroha
    That's your favorite, right? Aren't you lucky?
[22:27] Maru
    Seriously? I want some!
[22:33] Kuroha
    Oh, and she says I'm getting
    corn soup with watermelon!
[22:36] Kuroha
    Yay! My favorite!
[22:38] Maru
    Huh?
[22:39] Maru
    Kuro, your sense of taste is back?
[22:41] Kuroha
    Huh? Oh... Oh, yeah!
[22:44] Kuroha
    My sense of taste changed, didn't it?
[22:46] Kuroha
    That's been my favorite for a long time,
     so I was involuntarily happy.
[22:48] Kuroha
    Whoopsie.
[22:50] Maru
    What the heck, Kuro? You're such a klutz.
[22:53] Kuroha
    I'm still a whole lot less
    klutzy than you are.
[22:57] Maru
    Yes, yes, you're right.
[23:00] Kuroha
    You made a ton of careless
    mistakes on the last quiz.
[23:04] Kuroha
    Aren't your grades kind of in danger?
[23:08] Maru
    And yours have stayed near
    the top this whole time.
[23:11] Maru
    It's amazing.
[23:12] Kuroha
    It's a difference in effort.
[23:14] Kuroha
    You were always sleeping
    through our summer classes.
[23:17] Kuroha
    I saw you.
[23:18] Maru
    Huh? Kuro...
[23:20] Maru
    How can you remember our summer
    classes if you have amnesia?
[23:36] Maru
    Kuro!

    Are you actually that shocked?

    Official members have the right to
    propose projects, vote on them, and veto them.
[06:05] Tetsu
    They must participate in

    About 80% of the people looking

    I'm glad you gave us that!

    That means 20% are girls, then.

    Are they after Tetsuhiko?

    first planning meeting.
[07:04] Tetsu
    Our first proposal is...
SIGN    First Ultramarine Alliance Planning Meeting
    Proposed by: Kai Tetsuhiko (placed 1st in the vote for projects the Alliance wants to do)
    Plan: Have the 3 female official members shoot a music video
    (Swimsuits encouraged!)
[07:06] Tetsu
    This!
[07:07] Maru
    Swimsuits encouraged?! It's October, dude!
[07:10] Tetsu
    Actually, I have connections in Okinawa.
[07:12] Tetsu
    It's still warm there, and we can swim.
[07:15] Maru
    What about money?
[07:16] Tetsu
    We have the profit from winning
    the commercial contest.
[07:18] Tetsu
    Our goal is to get the
    Ultramarine Alliance's name out there,
[07:21] Tetsu
    so even if the singing and dancing sucks,
    it's fine as long as it draws attention.
[07:25] Tetsu
    I have a song and choreography ready, too.
[07:30] Maru
    I always thought you were a genius.
[07:35] Tetsu
    I knew it all along, personally.
[07:38] Kuroha
    Why are you two enjoying this so much?!
[07:41] Kuroha
    You want us in swimsuits?! Unbelievable!
[07:43] Kuroha
    Both of you, get down on your
    knees right where you are!
[07:46] Maru
    Please! Girls in swimsuits
    are every man's dream!
[07:49] Kuroha
    Huh?!
[07:50] Kuroha
    Haru, you lecher! Pervert! Pervert! Pervert!
SIGN    Pervert!
SIGN    Pervert!
SIGN    Pervert!!
[07:53] Maria
    To be honest, I'm opposed to this, too.
[07:55] Maria
    I mean, asking us to wear swimsuits...
[07:57] Kachi
    But you're fine with singing and dancing?
[08:00] Maria
    Well, if we do that, I'm fairly
    confident that I can pull it off.
[08:03] Maria
    What about you?
[08:04] Kachi
    Of course I can't. I'm a complete novice.
[08:08] Maria
    You're opposed to this, then?
[08:10] Kachi
    Yes.
[08:10] Maria
    Then we can probably vote it down
    without having to use a veto.
[08:14] Maria
    It's best if we can save
    that for another time.
[08:19] Kachi
    No.
[08:20] Kachi
    Sorry, but I don't trust
    either of you that much.
[08:23] Kachi
    You complain now, but you might
    decide you're all for it later.
[08:27] Kachi
    And if you do that, this plan
    will have a chance at passing.
[08:31] Kachi
    So...
[08:32] Kachi
    I demand a revision to this plan.
[08:34] Kachi
    Remove the part about swimsuits.
[08:36] Kachi
    If you don't, I'll use my right to veto.
[08:39] Kachi
    This is the smallest concession I can make.
[08:42] Kachi
    It's your own fault for proposing a plan
[08:43] Kachi
    that you knew someone would
    likely use their veto on.
[08:46] Kachi
    I don't want to waste my right to veto.
[08:49] Tetsu
    Oh, fine.
SIGN    Swimsuits encouraged!

[08:52] Tetsu
    Happy now?
[08:53] Kuroha
    This still doesn't change the fact
    that we're being put on display.
[08:58] Tetsu
    It's sounding like this is
    going to be voted down.

[09:03] Kuroha
    Who voted yes?!
[09:04] Kachi
    That's what I'd like to ask.
[09:07] Kachi
    You didn't kick up all that fuss only to
    vote in favor behind our backs, did you?
[09:11] Kuroha
    What?! Why would I?
[09:13] Kachi
    Well, you're fighting with
    Su-chan right now, aren't you?
[09:16] Kachi
    It makes sense that you'd want
    a chance to reconcile with him.
[09:19] Maria
    That's a very convincing opinion.
[09:21] Kuroha
    N-No! I didn't—
[09:23] Tetsu
    Okay, okay, no asking how others voted.
[09:26] Tetsu
    Then what's the point of voting anonymously?
SIGN    Okinawa
    2 nights, 3 days
[09:30] Tetsu
    On that note,
SIGN    Okinawa
    2 nights, 3 days
[09:32] Tetsu
    we'll be staying in Okinawa for two nights
    and three days, starting this Saturday.
[09:35] Maru
    What? It's already Wednesday!
[09:37] Tetsu
    Well, it's October. If we're gonna
    go, we want a three-day weekend.
[09:41] Tetsu
    That means this weekend is the best time.
[09:42] Kuroha
    Hang on. I can't go this weekend.
[09:45] Kuroha
    My parents are away on business.
[09:46] Kuroha
    If I leave, my little sisters
    will be home alone.
[09:50] Tetsu
    Then bring them along.
[09:52] Tetsu
    We'll call them unofficial members.
[09:53] Kuroha
    Huh?!
[09:54] Tetsu
    Frankly, I wanted to bring some helpers.
[09:56] Tetsu
    Oh, we'll cover their travel
    expenses, of course.
[09:58] Maru
    It would definitely be better than
    getting people we don't know to help.
[10:02] Kuroha
    But Midori has a mock exam on Saturday,
     and Aoi has her club...
[10:06] Tetsu
    Then how about we have the Shida
    sisters join us on Sunday?
[10:10] Tetsu
    And we'll shoot on Monday.
[10:11] Kuroha
    You can't just postpone it?
[10:13] Tetsu
    We won't get another three-day
    weekend for a while.
[10:15] Tetsu
    And we don't know if it'll
    still be sunny in November.
[10:18] Kuroha
    Then can't we just film somewhere closer?
[10:20] Kuroha
    It doesn't have to be in Okinawa.
[10:22] Tetsu
    Part of my goal is to make
    some summer memories.
[10:26] Tetsu
    We formed this club late in the year,
[10:28] Tetsu
    so we didn't get to make
    any summer memories.
[10:30] Tetsu
    The summer of our second year is our last
    summer before we start studying for exams.
[10:34] Tetsu
    That means this is our last
    chance to make up for that.
[10:37] Kuroha
    That's just...
[10:39] Tetsu
    Anyone else have a conflict?
[10:41] Maria
    I'll make it work through sheer willpower!
[10:43] Kachi
    It's fine with me.
[10:44] Masu
    Me, too.
[10:46] Kachi
    Hey, if you want helpers, what about Meiko?
[10:50] Kachi
    If I ask her, I think she'll
    say she wants to go.
[10:54] Tetsu
    Go ahead and ask.
[10:57] Kachi
    All right...
[10:59] Kachi
    No, it's okay. I'll see you tomorrow.
[11:03] Kachi
    I never thought she'd say no.
[11:05] Tetsu
    Remember, it's not good to recommend
    someone if you didn't check with them first.
[11:09] Kuroha
    What about my sisters?
[11:11] Tetsu
    That was because you can't leave
    them at home on their own.
[11:14] Tetsu
    If they say they don't want to go,
     you won't be participating.
[11:18] Kuroha
    Got it.
[11:20] Maru
    Man, Okinawa, huh?
[11:22] Maru
    I didn't think I'd get to go to the beach.
[11:24] Maru
    I had totally given up on that!
[11:26] Kuroha
    Haru, it's fine to be excited,
[11:28] Kuroha
    but don't you have midterms next week?
[11:30] Kuroha
    You did horribly on your last exams, too.
[11:32] Kuroha
    Won't you be in trouble if
    you don't turn it around?
[11:37] Kuroha
    Tetsuhiko-kun, you don't mind if
    this trip doubles as a study camp
[11:41] Kuroha
    for those of us with bad grades, do you?
[11:43] Tetsu
    I suppose not.
[11:45] Tetsu
    I don't want the club to be blamed
    for anyone getting a failing grade.
[11:48] Maru
    Wait, I'm the only one here with bad grades!
[11:50] Maru
    So the study camp's just for me?!
[11:52] Kuroha
    Midori's studying for entrance exams,
     so she'll be there, too.
[11:55] Kuroha
    That just leaves...
[11:57] Kuroha
    Momo-san, have you taken your transfer exam?
[12:00] Maria
    No, I forced my way in with
    money and influence. Why?
[12:03] Maru
    Momo! A little sister type
    shouldn't say that!
[12:08] Maru
    That doesn't make it better!
[12:10] Maru
    Well, whatever... So what were your
    grades like at your previous school?
[12:13] Maria
    I don't think that's something
    I should openly discuss.
[12:16] Maria
    What about you?
[12:18] Maria
    There are bad grades and there are
    worse grades. How bad are yours?
[12:22] Maru
    Tee-hee!
[12:23] Maru
    Ow!
[12:24] Maru
    What the hell?!
[12:24] Kuroha
    So I guess you'll be at the study camp, too.
[12:25] Tetsu
    I dunno. You pissed me off.
[12:26] Momo
    Well, before now, I was grateful to have the
    bare minimum in both grades and attendance.
[12:26] Maru
    Why would that piss you off?!
[12:28] Tetsu
    What if a girl smiled at you?
[12:29] Maru
    She'd be cute!
[12:30] Tetsu
    And if a guy did it?
[12:31] Momo
    Anyway, Tetsuhiko-san...
[12:32] Maru
    It's be gross!
[12:33] Momo
    Do we know where we'll be staying?
[12:36] Tetsu
    No worries.
[12:37] Tetsu
    Kachi's dad is letting us use
    his villa and private beach.
[12:45] Kuroha
    Oh, so that's it.
[12:47] Kuroha
    You and Tetsuhiko-kun are working together.
[12:49] Kachi
    What? Me, working with Kai-kun?
[12:52] Kachi
    You know that would never happen.
[12:53] Kuroha
    You had him add the swimsuit thing
    and then got him to remove it
[12:57] Kuroha
    to force the proposal through?
[12:59] Kuroha
    You two planned all of this?!
[13:00] Maria
    That was brilliant, Shirokusa-san.
[13:03] Maru
    Kuro, why all the animosity toward Shiro?
[13:06] Kuroha
    What?! So you believe Kachi-san?
[13:08] Maru
    I mean, it doesn't even make sense
    that this was all Shiro's plan.
[13:12] Kuroha
    Why don't you ever believe me?!
[13:15] Maru
    Okay, do you believe me, then?
[13:18] Maru
    If you did, wouldn't you tell me
    everything and not hide it all?

    so I came in her place.
[13:40] Maru
    Oh, okay. Thanks for that.
[13:42] Aoi
    Not at all. Leave the cleaning to me.
[13:47] Aoi
    There's one more kitty now...

    Kitty says, "Meow, meow"...
    Try to be a kitty...
[13:55] Aoi
    U-Um, Haru-niisan... were you... listening?
[14:00] Maru
    Nah, don't worry. I didn't hear a thing.
[14:06] Aoi
    U-Um, Haru-niisan...
[14:09] Aoi
    "Don't worry" is what you would
    say if you heard it, isn't it?
[14:13] Aoi
    If you hadn't, you'd say,

    You're mean, Haru-niisan!
[14:24] Maru
    Hey, I'm sorry, okay?
[14:25] Maru
    I didn't mean to tease you.
[14:28] Aoi
    It's okay, then.
[14:30] Aoi
    It was my own fault for singing out loud.
[14:33] Maru
    It's so easy to make up with you, Aoi-chan.
[14:36] Aoi
    Huh?
[14:37] Maru
    Oh, uh... I just said you're
    a really nice girl.
[14:40] Aoi
    Please. You'll make me blush.
[14:42] Maru
    I'll be done with this soon.
    Then we can have dinner.
[14:45] Aoi
    Okay.
[14:46] Aoi
    I can't wait to eat your curry.
[14:51] Both
    Let's eat.
[14:56] Aoi
    This is it! This is the
    flavor! It's so relaxing!
[14:59] Maru
    You always say stuff to lift me up.
[15:02] Aoi
    Well, that's how I really feel.
[15:04] Aoi
    You put honey in it just for me, don't you?
[15:07] Aoi
    That makes me really happy.
[15:13] Aoi
    By the way, Haru-niisan...
[15:16] Aoi
    You and Kuro-neesan had a fight, didn't you?
[15:20] Aoi
    She was acting funny,
    so I thought you must have.
[15:24] Maru
    Uh, it's probably not something
    I should tell you—
[15:26] Aoi
    No, please tell me about it.
[15:28] Aoi
    I respect both of you,
    so I want to help somehow!
[15:35] Maru
    I'm a little embarrassed,
    since it involves love and stuff.
[15:38] Aoi
    I'll still listen, if you don't mind.
[15:42] Aoi
    I see. So that's what happened.
[15:45] Maru
    So... what do you think?
[15:48] Maru

[16:00] Aoi
    Your fight is so overflowing with the power

[16:06] Aoi
    It just makes me feel exhausted.
[16:09] Maru
    That's your opinion?!
[16:10] Aoi
    If I were to be honest,
    I think you're both at fault.
[16:12] Aoi
    In fact, I don't even care.
[16:14] Aoi
    Like, shouldn't you just make
    up and start dating already?
[16:18] Maru
    Hang on! Kuro and I are fighting for real!
[16:21] Aoi
    My opinion takes that into consideration.
[16:23] Maru
    Let me add some more detail here!
[16:25] Maru
    Kuro won't tell me how she really feels.
[16:28] Maru
    Which means she lied because there's
    something she wants to hide, right?
[16:32] Aoi
    You're just full of distrust, aren't you?
[16:34] Maru
    Well, so is Kuro.
[16:36] Maru
    She lied because she didn't trust me.
[16:40] Aoi
    Not everyone can be as
    emotionally open as you are.
[16:44] Maru
    Huh?
[16:45] Aoi
    I think you're the kind
    of person who can't lie.
[16:48] Aoi
    But it's difficult for others to be
    like that on the same level as you.
[16:53] Maru
    Are you saying I'm the one at fault?
[16:55] Aoi
    No, I think Kuro-neesan is the one to blame.
[16:58] Aoi
    But I can understand all
    too well how she feels.
[17:01] Aoi
    So I just wish you would do your best
    to accept her with an open mind.
[17:07] Aoi
    Kuro-neesan is focusing on the results,
[17:09] Aoi
    while you're focusing on
    the method and process.
[17:12] Aoi
    I think maybe you're just
    out of sync in that way.
[17:16] Aoi
    Haru-niisan...
[17:18] Aoi
    Do you love Kuro-neesan?
[17:21] Maru
    Yeah... but...
[17:23] Aoi
    You've found someone else
    that you love more?
[17:26] Maru
    Huh?
[17:30] Maru
    I... don't know.
[17:34] Aoi
    When it comes to love,
[17:36] Aoi
    I think choosing someone you're
    not fully committed to
[17:39] Aoi
    will only lead to trouble.
[17:41] Maru
    I get that.
[17:43] Maru
    Someone I know is the worst example of it.
[17:47] Aoi
    You're going to Okinawa soon, right?
[17:49] Maru
    Oh, are you and your other
    sisters coming, too?
[17:51] Aoi
    Yes, we'll be there starting
    on the second day.
[17:54] Aoi
    But I think you should be wary of the
    magic of travel while we're there.
[17:58] Maru
    Huh? What does that mean?
[18:00] Aoi
    The moment a boy and girl who had
    nothing between them go on a trip...
[18:05] Maru
    Oh! You mean how they get
    excited and end up together?
[18:08] Aoi
    Yes.
[18:08] Aoi
    Since you're fighting with Kuro-neesan now,
[18:10] Aoi
    if that were to happen,
    I think you'd regret it later.
[18:14] Maru
    This doesn't sound like your usual advice...
[18:16] Aoi
    I'm sorry if what I say seems strange.
[18:18] Maru
    Nah, thank you, really.
    I'll keep it in mind.
[18:22] Aoi
    Everyone in the Ultramarine
    Alliance is attractive, you know?
[18:26] Aoi
    So please...
[18:28] Aoi
    Be very careful, okay?
[18:31] Maru
    You're saying... if one of them uses sex
    appeal on me, I'll fall right for it?
[18:34] Aoi
    I wouldn't have gone that far.
[18:38] Maru
    But...
[18:38] Aoi
    ...I do think that.

[19:10] Tetsu
    What's up?
[19:11] Kachi
    Today's meeting went just as planned.
[19:14] Kachi
    I thought I should thank you.
[19:16] Tetsu
    You don't need to thank me.
[19:18] Tetsu
    But I can look forward to something
    interesting happening, right?
[19:21] Kachi
    Of course.
[19:22] Kachi
    All you need to worry
    about is not interfering.
[19:24] Tetsu
    I would like to know what
    your goal is, though. Well?
[19:28] Kachi
    I always have just one goal:
[19:30] Kachi
    to get Su-chan to confess
    his love to me. That's it.
[19:33] Tetsu
    Come on, that's gonna be kind of tough.
[19:35] Kachi
    Oh, shut up!
[19:36] Kachi
    I'm Su-chan's first love! Do you get that?!
[19:40] Kachi
    You only have one first love
    in your life! It's special!
[19:43] Kachi
    So there's nothing tough about it!
[19:45] Kachi
    I've already perfected the plan
    that I recruited your help for
[19:48] Kachi
    to win Su-chan over on the day when
    that little homewrecker isn't there.
[19:53] Kachi
    All you need to do is sit back
    and watch my counterattack.
[19:55] Kachi
    Understand?
[19:57] Tetsu
    Yeah, yeah. I understand, madam.
[19:59] Testu
    I'll watch and see what you've got.
[20:03] Tetsu
    If Sueharu gets a girlfriend,
    the Ultramarine Alliance will blow apart.
[20:07] Tetsu
    So keeping things balanced
    would be ideal for me.
[20:11] Tetsu
    But if Kachi doesn't play her cards right,
[20:14] Tetsu
    Shida-chan will be a hurdle
    she can never get over.
[20:16] Tetsu
    And it'll be interesting to see
    what Maria-chan does, too.
[20:19] Tetsu
    I should be excited to
    see how this turns out.
[20:23] Maru
    It's summer!
[20:33] Eri
    We'll buy food for all three days here.
[20:35] Kachi
    Sorry to make you drive us, as well, Eri-san.
[20:39] Kachi
    My father was supposed to be here...
[20:42] Eri
    Oh, it's fine. I was lucky all
    my expenses were covered.
[20:46] Kachi
    I'm glad to hear you say that.
[20:53] Eri

    Be honest. Shirokusa-chan's your
     type, isn't she?
[21:14] Maru
    Uh... er... no comment.
[21:16] Eri
    What about Kuroha-chan? You still love her?
[21:19] Maru
    Where's all this coming from?

    Is there anything you'd like?
[21:40] Kachi
    Wait a minute! You're an
     actress, aren't you?
[21:43] Kachi
    I thought most actresses couldn't cook.
[21:46] Maria
    What? Cooking is easy, though.
[21:49] Maria
    Wait, is this because your cooking
    skills are dismal, Shirokusa-san?
[21:54] Kachi
    N-Not at all!
[21:55] Kachi
    That's not true in the slightest!
[21:57] Maria
    Oh?
[21:59] Maria

    ...a cooking contest!
[00:06] Maru
    What do we do about this?
[00:08] Tetsu
    Easy.
[00:09] Tetsu
    No matter what they cook,
    we just have to eat it.
[00:12] Tetsu
    If you die, I'll take care of
    all your affairs for you.
[00:15] Maru
    Oh, I'm making sure you eat.
     If I die, so do you.
[00:18] Tetsu
    Nope.
[00:18] Maru
    You're eating!
[00:19] Tetsu
    Nope.
[00:20] Maru
    You're eating!
[00:21] Tetsu
    Nope.
[00:22] Maru
    You're eating!
[00:23] Eri
    All right, you high school boys.
[00:25] Eri
    There's this thing called tact. Get some!
[00:28] Maru
    Ow!
[00:28] Tetsu
    Ow!
[00:29] Eri
    Now, if we're having a cooking contest,
     we'll need a theme.
[00:34] Tetsu
    Look, let's just compare local
    instant ramen flavors.
[00:39] Maru
    You're normally scum,
    but sometimes, you're a genius.
[00:42] Eri
    That wouldn't be any fun.
[00:43] Eri
    But we don't want anything
    too difficult, so...
[00:46] Kachi
    Th-Then how about fried chicken?
[00:48] Eri
    Oh, what about hotpot, then?
[00:50] Tetsu
    That's it!
[00:51] Maru
    Good idea!
[00:51] Maria
    That's fine with me.
[00:53] Kachi
    U-Um, I think fried chicken is—
[00:55] Eri
    Okay, hotpot it is!
[00:56] Tetsu

[02:46] Maria
    Come over here and have fun with us.
[02:49] Rena
    To tell you the truth, I've never gone
    on any trips other than school events,
[02:54] Rena
    so I kinda don't know where I should be.
[02:57] Maria
    Then would you like to shop with me?
[03:02] Rena
    I appreciate your thoughtfulness!
[03:04] Maria
    You don't need to be so polite.
[03:07] Maria
    We're the same age, after all.
[03:09] Rena
    I could say the same to you.
[03:19] (Flashback) Aoi
    So I just wish you would do your best
    to accept her with an open mind.
[03:23] Tetsu
    I know you.
[03:25] Tetsu
    You're thinking about
    Shida-chan, aren't you?
[03:27] Maru
    Wha—
[03:28] Tetsu
    Up until now, you always made
    up right away after a fight.
[03:31] Maru
    This time is no different
    than all the rest!
[03:34] Tetsu
    Don't bother acting tough.
[03:36] Tetsu
    When you're stuck in a mess this bad,
[03:38] Tetsu
    you two are gonna be
    awkward for a long time,
[03:40] Tetsu
    even if you get to talking for
    the same reasons as usual.
[03:43] Maru
    What would you do in my position?
[03:46] Tetsu
    Hmm...
[03:48] Tetsu
    I'd seduce all the girls around
    me and start a harem.
[03:51] Maru
    You're such total scum,
    it actually puts me at ease.
[03:55] Tetsu
    I'm not telling you to
    hurt any of the girls.
[03:59] Tetsu
    In fact, I'm telling you to
    just make them all happy.
[04:02] Tetsu
    And if the result deviates a bit
    from what's considered the norm,
[04:05] Tetsu
    what's wrong with that?
[04:07] Tetsu
    Isn't it more important that the
    people you care about are happy?
[04:11] Tetsu
    In other words, it's both
    kindness and humanism.
[04:14] Maru
    Just how demonic are you?
[04:15] Maru
    I bet when you die, it's gonna
    be because a woman stabbed you.
[04:19] Tetsu
    Isn't that how every man wants to die?
[04:21] Maru
    The fact that I even vaguely understand
    the trashy things you say scares me.
[04:28] Maru
    Whew, good. No one heard me.
[04:32] Tetsu
    Man, it's hot. Let's go get some ice cream.
[04:35] Maru
    Sure.
[04:39] Maria
    We can't tell him we actually did hear.
[04:42] Rena
    This is normal for them, honestly.
[04:44] Rena
    I don't even think a thing of hearing
    them talk like that anymore.
[04:47] Maria
    Really?
[04:48] Maria
    I never would've thought of it,
    so I found it very informative.
[04:52] Rena
    Informative?
[04:55] Maria
    Sueharu-oniichan isn't like Tetsuhiko-san.
[04:58] Maria
    He tends to lean more on
    common sense and logic.
[05:02] Maria
    That's why he's drawn to
    Tetsuhiko-san's ideas,
[05:05] Maria
    but part of him also envies how
    he's so true to his own desires.
[05:10] Rena
    Oh, yeah, I guess so.
[05:13] Maria
    Finding out that Sueharu-oniichan
    doesn't totally lack interest
[05:17] Maria
    in having a harem was a
    new discovery for me.
[05:20] Rena
    But what good does it do to discover that?
[05:24] Maria
    Rena-san, what position do
    you think I'm in right now?
[05:28] Rena
    You mean romantically, right?
[05:30] Maria
    Correct!
[05:32] Rena
    If you want me to be honest,
[05:34] Rena
    I think you're falling
    behind the other two.
[05:36] Rena
    Oh, but I don't mean in
    terms of personal charm!
[05:40] Maria
    Thank you for being honest.
[05:42] Maria
    That's what I think, too.
[05:44] Maria
    Romantically, I'm falling behind
    Kuroha-san and Shirokusa-san.
[05:49] Maria
    That said, I'm not drastically far behind.
[05:52] Maria
    I think it's only because I'm
    not a romantic interest yet.
[05:57] Rena
    Wow... You're so cool-headed
    about all this.
[05:59] Maria
    Which means the best thing for me
[06:01] Maria
    is to make him aware of
    me while the two of them
[06:05] Maria
    are preventing each other from
    getting together with him.
[06:09] Rena
    I get it.
[06:11] Rena
    The general understanding of a harem is
    that the guy's chosen all the girls,
[06:15] Rena
    but you could also say it means
    he won't just choose one.

    What do you think, Su-chan?
[06:37] Maru
    My sincerest thanks for allowing
    us to accompany you, milady.
[06:40] Kachi
    H-Huh?!
[06:42] Maru
    I am ready to obey any order you may have.
[06:45] Kachi
    Wait... Stop that, Su-chan!
[06:47] Maru
    I am delighted that you
    address me with such ease.
[06:50] Maru
    Supremely delighted!
[06:51] Kachi

[06:54] Tetsu
    Sueharu's really something, huh?
[06:56] Tetsu
    He has no resistance to people
    with money and power.
[06:59] Rena

[07:02] Tetsu
    Are you, too?
[07:03] Rena
    I still have my pride!
[07:05] Maru
    Can't you two choose your
    words a little better?
[07:07] Maru
    Especially you, Rena! I know
    you're making fun of me!
[07:11] Rena
    Frankly... yeah, I am.
[07:13] Maru
    Don't think I'll let you off the
    hook just because you were honest!
[07:14] Rena
    Ow, ow, ow, ow!
[07:17] Rena
    No bullying your juniors!
[07:18] Eri
    All right, all right. Shirokusa-chan,
    unlock the door.
[07:22] Eri
    Come on, everyone has to carry something.
     Especially the boys!
[07:34] Kachi
    Your bedrooms are on the first floor.
[07:37] Kachi
    There are five bedrooms,
    each with two beds.
[07:40] Kachi
    As for how to split up the rooms...
[07:42] Maria
    Sueharu-chan and I will share a room!
[07:45] Eri
    You're so bold, Maria.
[07:48] Kachi
    Okay, so Momosaka-san and her
    sister will get one room.
[07:52] Rena
    Kachi-senpai's a pro at
    ignoring provocation!
[07:54] Kachi
    Su-chan and Kai-kun will share one room,
[07:56] Kachi
    Asagi-san and I will share one room,
[07:59] Kachi
    and the four Shida sisters can have the
    last two rooms. How does that sound?
[08:03] All
    No objections.
[08:05] Kachi
    Also, the bath is on the third floor.
[08:07] Kachi
    You can get a nice view from the terrace,
[08:09] Kachi
    but the stars at night look
    better from the bath.
[08:15] Maru
    Shiro, I've got a good idea.
[08:18] Maru
    We could all put on our swimsuits
    and get in the bath toge—
[08:20] Kachi
    Do you really think I'll allow
    something so salacious?
[08:23] Kachi
    Well, Su-chan? Do you?
[08:26] Maru
    S-Sorry. Just kidding.
[08:29] Tetsu
    Hey, is it possible to
    dive in from up here?
[08:32] Kachi
    Yes.
[08:34] Tetsu
    All right, got it.
[08:36] Tetsu
    Go to hell!
[08:40] Maru
    Damn it, Tetsuhiko!
[08:42] Maru
    Take this!
[08:45] Eri
    Ah, youth.
[08:54] Akane
    Impressive, Kuro-nee. I can't believe
    you got this far in just a few days.
[08:59] Kuroha
    Well, I did promise Tetsuhiko-kun.
[09:02] Akane
    It's not just that, is it?
[09:04] Akane
    It's more than just the dance practice.
     For Haru-nii, you're...
[09:09] Kuroha
    Well, I'm basically his older sister.
[09:12] Akane
    Even though you're fighting?
[09:14] Kuroha
    That's one thing. This is another.
[09:16] Akane
    You really are amazing.
[09:18] Akane
    He might be out having fun as we speak.
[09:22] Akane
    It seems likely that he's using your absence
    as a chance to skip out on studying.
[09:28] Akane
    And since he's such a pervert,
[09:30] Akane
    he might be gawking at the other girls.
[09:35] Maria
    Oh? What's the matter, Sueharu-oniichan?
[09:39] Maria
    It's not often I put on a swimsuit.
    You should take a better look.
[09:43] Maru
    Wait, Momo!
[09:47] Maria
    Did that make your heart pound?
[09:49] Maria
    You're so kyoote! Kyoote, kyoote, kyoote!
[09:52] Maru
    Okay, fine, I get it.
    Just don't get any closer!
[09:55] Maria
    Telling me that won't do you any good.
[09:57] Maria
    There, there!
[10:03] Akane
    A-Aoi, sorry to interrupt
    your club meeting,
[10:06] Akane
    but I need you to get home
    as soon as possible.
[10:08] Akane
    I don't think I can hold
    Kuro-nee back by myself.
[10:19] Tetsu
    Why don't you stop filming
    and go play with them?
[10:22] Rena
    Can I?
[10:23] Tetsu
    Since we're not allowed
    to film the swimsuits,
[10:25] Tetsu
    there's no point in shooting

    That's not the point. I'm saying
    you should try to look cuter.
[15:53] Kachi
    You make it sound so easy.
[15:55] Maru
    Tetsuhiko...
[15:57] Maru
    I don't know if it'll be a good example,
[15:59] Maru
    but can I try doing the dance once?
[16:01] Tetsu
    Can you, though? You haven't practiced it.
[16:05] Maru
    I've mastered the basic movements.
[16:08] Maru
    Though I won't be singing,
    of course. Just dancing.
[16:10] Kachi
    Su-chan...
[16:12] Tetsu
    Okay, sure. Go for it.
[16:23] Rena
    I feel the urge to kill.
[16:25] Tetsu
    Ditto.
[16:27] Rena
    What I really can't stand is that I thought
    he looked cute for just a second.
[16:32] Tetsu
    Seeing the look that comes to his face
    when he suddenly comes to his senses
[16:36] Tetsu
    is just depressing.
[16:38] Rena
    Right now, I'm just cursing the god
    who gave that moron so much talent.
[16:44] Maria
    You're amazing, Sueharu-oniichan!
[16:46] Maria
    Other than the fact that it's gross
    when a boy does it, that was perfect!
[16:51] Maru
    Was that a compliment or an insult?
[16:53] Maria
    A compliment, of course.
[16:55] Maru
    What'd you think, Shiro?
[16:57] Kachi
    You really are amazing, Su-chan.
[17:00] Maru
    Hey, Shiro...
[17:02] Maru
    Remember how I couldn't dance until
    just recently because of my trauma?
[17:06] Maru
    What made me able to do it again
    was something really small.
[17:10] Maru
    It was... deciding to
    dance for someone else.
[17:14] Kachi
    For... someone else?
[17:17] Maru
    Is there anyone you want to dance for?
[17:20] Maru
    If not, is there anyone
    you want to smile for?
[17:27] Kachi
    Su-chan... Thank you.
[17:34] Maria
    Sueharu-oniichan, when you finish
    with that, could you help me?
[17:39] Maru
    Sure. What do you want me to do?
[17:41] Maria
    Just hold me tight, so I don't go far away.
[17:45] Maru
    Could you not just hit me
    like that out of the blue?!
[17:47] Maru
    The shock is too much!
[17:49] Maria
    I was actually half-joking.
[17:51] Maria
    I'm making chanko nabe,
    so I could use a hand.
[17:54] Maru
    Okay, I get it now, but why only half?
[17:57] Maria
    Would you prefer if I'd
    only been 10% joking?
[18:00] Maru
    That's not where I was going with that!
[18:03] Maru
    Wait, where's Shiro?
[18:05] Maria
    She just walked out the front door
    earlier without saying a word.
[18:08] Maru
    Wait, wha—
[18:10] Maria
    Sueharu-oniichan!
[18:12] Maru
    What?
[18:14] Maria
    I'm not all that concerned
    about this cooking contest.
[18:18] Maru
    Huh? What makes you say this now?
[18:20] Maria
    No particular reason.
[18:22] Maru
    O-Okay...
[18:31] Kachi
    I practiced making it because
    I heard it was Su-chan's favorite.
[18:35] Kachi
    So why hotpot? How do you even make hotpot?
[18:40] Kachi
    Do you just boil stuff?
    Is that all it takes?
[18:42] Kachi
    There are too many recipes out there.
     I don't know what to do.
[18:46] Maru
    Shiro...
[18:49] Kachi
    Wh-What is it, Su-chan?
[18:51] Kachi
    I'd kind of like to be alone right now.
[18:53] Maru
    Shiro, do you feel like you have
    to act tough around me, too?
[18:58] Maru
    I know the old Shiro.
[19:00] Maru
    There's no need to hide any
    weakness from me now, is there?
[19:04] Maru
    I know there was a time when you didn't even
    want to step outside the gate to your house,
[19:08] Maru
    so you actually cried.
[19:10] Kachi
    I'm not the same person I was then!
[19:13] Kachi
    I got stronger! Strong enough to
    stand on even footing with you!
[19:17] Maru
    Shiro...
[19:21] Maru
    I won't say I don't care whether
    you're strong or not,
[19:24] Maru
    but I don't think it's good
    to fixate too much on it.
[19:30] Maru
    If devoting too much of yourself
    to get stronger makes you suffer,
[19:33] Maru
    I don't want you to try that hard.
[19:35] Maru
    Being too weak might not be a good thing,
[19:37] Maru
    but aren't there things more
    important than being strong?
[19:40] Kachi
    What are you trying to say, Su-chan?
[19:43] Maru
    I think being honest is more important.
[19:47] Maru
    It looks to me like you're digging your own
    grave because you can't just be honest.
[19:54] Kachi
    I understand what you're saying...
     but I'm scared.
[20:00] Maru
    You've never even seen anyone
    make hotpot before, have you?
[20:04] Kachi
    How do you know?
[20:05] Maru
    I kind of overheard.
[20:07] Maru
    Also, you practiced making
    my favorite food?
[20:10] Kachi
    You heard that, too?!
[20:11] Maru
    Only bits and pieces.
[20:13] Kachi
    I wanted to look good without
    having to say anything!
[20:16] Maru
    Thanks, Shiro.
[20:18] Maru
    It makes me really happy that
    you practiced just for me.
[20:22] Maru
    Make some for me sometime.
[20:24] Kachi
    B-But it's a hotpot challenge...
[20:26] Maru
    Who cares? It'll work out.
[20:28] Maru
    What did you practice making?
[20:31] Kachi
    Fried chicken.
[20:33] Maru
    That really is my favorite!
[20:35] Maru
    Did you get the stuff to make it?
[20:36] Kachi
    I did, just in case.
[20:38] Maru
    Then there's no problem!
[20:40] Maru
    I'll make up some excuse
    to give the others.
[20:42] Maru
    Just focus on cooking and
    don't worry about a thing.
[20:47] Kachi
    You so easily do things that I can't.
[20:52] Maru
    That's not true.
[20:54] Maru
    I can't write novels like you.
[20:56] Kachi
    You always pinpoint the good things
    about whoever you're with.
[21:00] Kachi
    I'm a stubborn, pessimistic coward,
[21:04] Kachi
    but you give me so much
    courage and strength.
[21:19] Aoi
    I think you should be wary
    of the magic of travel.
[21:33] Maru
    We should head back.
[21:36] Kachi
    Yeah.
[21:54] Kuroha
    Well, you sure seem to be
    having a good time, Haru...
[21:58] Kuroha
    Without me and all.
[22:03] Maru
    Kuro!

[00:09] Maru

[00:20] Kuroha
    Hmm?
[00:21] Kuroha
    I think I'm the one who should

    Uh, well...

    Let go of me, Midori!
[00:44] Kuroha
    And what do you mean, go on a rampage?!

    I'm sorry for the ruckus.
[00:48] ---
    Hey!
SIGN    Osamake: Romcom Where
    The Childhood Friend Won't Lose
[02:23] Kuroha
    So, Tetsuhiko-kun, what's
    the plan after this?
[02:26] Tetsu
    I'd like to see your singing and
    dancing first, Shida-chan.
[02:29] Tetsu
    We can try putting all three together.
[02:32] Kuroha
    Okay.
[02:33] Tetsu
    After lunch, we'll set up the stage,
[02:35] Tetsu
    and those who need to study will study.
[02:37] Tetsu
    But we should play on the beach
    for a bit after we eat.
[02:40] Tetsu
    I'd feel bad making you do nothing but
    help after coming all the way here.
[02:44] Tetsu
    Shida-chan, they can spare an hour, right?
[02:49] Kuroha
    Well, if it's only an hour.
[03:05] Tetsu
    Maria-chan has the balance I expected,
[03:07] Tetsu
    but Shida-chan's not far behind at all.
[03:10] Rena
    Here you go.
[03:10] Maru
    Yeah, and Kuro's a good singer.
[03:13] Tetsu
    Kachi's gotten a lot better, too.
[03:18] Rena
    You okay?
[03:19] Kachi
    I'm fine. Thank you.
[03:21] Maru
    Shiro!
[03:22] Maru
    You've gotten a lot better.
[03:24] Kachi
    Really, Su-chan?
[03:26] Maru
    Yeah.
[03:27] Kachi
    If that's true, your advice must
    have been right on point.
[03:31] Kuroha
    I was glad to see it didn't look
    like anything had happened,
[03:35] Kuroha
    but this...
[03:37] Kuroha
    I guess that's my only choice.
[03:44] Midori
    Man, this feels great!
[03:47] Midori
    The beach rocks!
[03:53] Aoi
    Haru-niisan!
[03:56] Akane

[03:58] Maru
    Wait, where's Kuro?
[04:00] Aoi
    Oh... Kuro-neesan is...
[04:15] Tetsu
    She may be a childhood friend,
[04:17] Tetsu
    but this is your first time seeing her in a
    swimsuit as a potential love interest, eh?
[04:21] Tetsu
    The hell are you doing?!
[04:22] Maru
    You're wrong! I'm not captivated!

[04:25] Rena
    Hey!
[04:33] Tetsu
    Let go, Stupidharu.
[04:34] Kuroha
    Why do you have a watermelon?
[04:36] Rena
    We can't come to the beach
    and not break a watermelon!
[04:41] Rena
    All right! Let's crush it!
[04:43] Midori
    Kuro-nee!
[04:45] Midori
    That girl over there is the Akutami
    Award-winning novelist, Kachi-san, isn't she?
[04:51] Kuroha
    Why ask that now? You saw her once before.
[04:54] Midori
    Yeah, but only for a second.
[04:57] Midori
    Now that I get a good look,
    she's really pretty.
[05:00] Midori
    You're no match for her.
[05:02] Kuroha
    In what way?
[05:03] Midori
    Your face.
[05:04] Midori
    Your height.
[05:05] Midori
    Your chest.
[05:05] Kuroha
    Wow, Midori, you've got some guts.
[05:08] Kachi
    I like you, Midori-chan.
    You're a very honest girl.
[05:11] Kachi
    Why don't you and I have a chat?
[05:13] Midori
    Wow, really?!
[05:16] Kachi
    Of course.
[05:18] Midori
    You're in trouble, Kuro-nee!
[05:20] Midori
    She's way ahead of you in personality, too!
[05:22] Midori
    The only thing you've got on her
    is your blackheartedness!
[05:25] Kuroha
    Midori!
[05:28] Maru
    Come on, Kuro, just calm down...
[05:31] Kuroha
    There's something I want
    to say to you, Haru.
[05:36] Maru
    Ow, ow, ow, ow!
[05:38] Kuroha
    Sorry, everyone. We'll be right back.
[05:38] Maru
    Ow, ow, ow!
[05:40] Maru
    Kuro, wait a minute!
[05:41] Midori
    Sueharu... Rest in peace.
[05:45] Maru
    Ow!
[05:46] Kuroha
    Haru-san, you lashed out at
    me the moment we got here.
[05:51] Kuroha
    I know why. You're mad at me, aren't you?
[05:54] Maru
    Y-Yeah, that's right.
[05:56] Maru
    I mean, you lied to me,
    and you won't even apologize.
[06:00] Maru
    What's wrong with me being mad?
[06:02] Kuroha
    Hmm...
[06:06] Maru
    K-Kuro?!
[06:07] Kuroha
    You don't trust me, do you, Haru?
[06:12] Kuroha
    So from now on, I'll say,
    "I love you," ten times as often.
[06:17] Kuroha
    What? Got a problem with that?
[06:19] Maru
    That's...
[06:20] Kuroha
    It's fine. I'm just gonna say,
    "I love you," whenever I feel like it.
[06:23] Kuroha
    You can just listen and

    There are five subjects, and you
    have 30 minutes to complete each.
[08:37] Kuroha
    Also, we can't be the only ones to
    get out of setting up the stage,
[08:43] Kuroha
    so we'll be taking a break
    to go out and help.
[08:46] Maru
    That doesn't seem like much of a break.
[08:48] Kuroha
    Got a problem?
[09:02] Maru
    Huh?
[09:03] Maru
    This problem looks a lot like
    one I got wrong before.
[09:08] Maru
    Did she make this test based on
    problems I got wrong in the past?
[09:13] Maru
    Wouldn't it be really hard to
    put together a test like that?
[09:17] Maru
    And she had to practice the
    song and dance, too...
[09:24] Maru
    That's right.
[09:25] Maru
    Everyone said I couldn't get into this
    high school because it's a prep school,
[09:31] Maru
    but I got in because of Kuro.

    Sorry, it's nothing.

[10:22] Akane
    I don't get along with the other members,

[10:26] Maru
    Oh... How did you not get along with them?
[10:29] Akane
    Well, I want to get better at playing
    my instrument, but they never practice.
[10:34] Akane
    They all suck at theirs,
    but all they do is talk trash,
[10:37] Akane

    Shiro, you okay?
[11:54] Kachi
    Oh... Yes, I'm fine.

    Oh, yeah. You're the only one who
    kept practicing for two whole days.

    Midori, could you take a look at Shiro?
[12:06] Midori
    Do you feel any pain here?

[13:02] Kachi
    Sorry to make you call so late.

    No, I have no intention of

    and be the one to prop him up
    when he gets into trouble.
[13:32] Maru
    Shiro feels the same way as me.
[13:35] Kachi
    I'm going to try to be more honest,
[13:38] Kachi
    and rely on Su-chan for help
    and advice from now on.
[13:42] Kachi
    But I think it's wrong to rely
    on him unconditionally.
[13:46] Kachi
    I feel it's rude to start being dependent
    before I've done whatever I can myself.
[13:52] Kachi
    I won't be going back to the days when
    I just clung to Su-chan unconditionally.
[13:58] Kachi
    Meiko, thanks for listening.
[14:01] Kachi
    Okay, talk to you later.
[14:04] Kachi
    Well, back to work.
[14:15] Kachi
    I want to show Su-chan that
    I can do it when I try.
[14:19] Kachi
    I want to let him know that
    I am who I am because of him.
[14:41] Maru
    You can do it, Shiro.
[14:45] Maru
    First love is poison.
[14:48] Maru
    I thought I had eased the
    pain with a new love.
[14:52] Maru
    But the poison of my first love
[14:55] Maru
    is still eating away at me.
[15:10] Aoi
    Akane-chan...
[15:17] Akane
    Aoi, I don't know why, but my heart hurts.
[15:20] Aoi
    Akane-chan?
[15:22] Akane
    Why, though? This has
    never happened before.
[15:26] Akane
    But when I look at Haru-nii,
    my chest feels all tight.
[15:34] Aoi
    No, Akane-chan. Don't.
[15:39] Aoi
    It's poison. What you're feeling
    can't be anything but poison.
[15:43] Aoi
    No light will ever touch it.
[15:47] Aoi
    And yet, even the smallest things
    will make you so happy.
[15:50] Aoi
    You'll get all excited, even giddy.
[15:53] Aoi
    But in the end, you'll just be sad.
[15:56] Aoi
    I know my feelings clash with
    my beloved Kuro-neesan's.
[16:02] Aoi
    Maybe with Midori-neesan's, too.
[16:05] Aoi
    But is there...
[16:07] Aoi
    Is there no chance for me at all?
[16:12] Akane
    Aoi, you're hurting me.
[16:14] Aoi
    Sorry...
[16:16] Akane
    Are you okay?
[16:17] Aoi
    Yeah, I'm fine.
[16:20] Akane
    I'm glad.
[16:22] Aoi
    If love really is poison...
[16:26] Aoi
    Then for me, lies are medicine.
[16:30] Aoi
    Not medicine to heal me, though.
[16:35] Aoi
    All for everyone else.
[16:37] Aoi
    It's a painkiller that lets me get away
    with claiming a noble cause like that.
[16:43] Aoi
    Also, after I use this medicine, it hurts.
[16:47] Aoi
    Because the more I lie, the stronger
    these feelings I shouldn't have get.
[16:52] Aoi
    Hey, Haru-niisan, please tell me...
[16:57] Aoi
    What should I do?
[17:09] Kuroha
    Oh, Haru...
[17:10] Maru
    Hey, Shiro.
[17:11] Maru
    How's your foot doing?
[17:13] Kachi
    It's just fine.
[17:16] Maru
    Really? Let me take a look.
[17:18] Kachi
    W-Wait, Su-chan...
[17:20] Maru
    Does it hurt here? How about here?
[17:22] Kachi
    Su-chan...
[17:23] Rena
    What do you think that's
    all about, Tetsu-senpai?
[17:24] Kachi
    Don't do lewd things in front of everyone.
[17:26] Maru
    Huh? What'd you say?
[17:26] Tetsu
    Yeah, I dunno, either.
[17:27] Kachi
    Uh, nothing.
[17:29] Maria
    I may have taken this a bit too lightly.
[17:33] Rena
    Momo-chi?
[17:35] Maru
    Can you make it, Shiro?
[17:36] Kachi
    Yeah. Thanks.
[17:39] Maru
    Keep it up.
[17:40] Kachi
    I will.
[19:29] Maru
    You did it. You really did your best,
[19:33] Maru
    Shiro.
[19:34] Tetsu
    Okay, that's it.
[19:36] Maru
    That was good, right? It was perfect!
[19:39] Tetsu
    We still have some time.
    Should we do one more take?
[19:42] Maru
    No way, no way! It'll never
    get any better than that!
[19:45] Maru
    There's no need to do it again! That was enough!
[19:47] Tetsu
    What're you getting all heated about?
[19:50] Kachi
    Su-chan, what's wrong?
[19:52] Kachi
    Ow!

[20:04] Maru
    Ow!

    Hey, Rena, look up nearby hospitals.
[20:15] Rena
    Roger!
[20:16] Tetsu
    Eri-san, start the car.
[20:19] Tetsu
    Midori-chan, can you give him first aid?
[20:19] Kachi
    Su-chan... This is my fault.
[20:21] ---
    Y-Yes!
[20:23] Maru
    Shiro... You're still such a crybaby.
[20:28] Maru
    Don't worry about me. This is no big deal.
[20:33] Kachi
    Su-chan...
[20:41] Abe
    Mind if I interrupt?
[20:43] Tetsu
    As long as you know that's
    what you're doing.
[20:45] Tetsu
    You're interrupting. Could you leave?
[20:48] Abe
    I've started to look forward
    to these reactions of yours.
[20:51] Abe
    I'm glad you met my expectations.
[20:53] Tetsu
    Are you that masochistic?
[20:55] Abe
    I'll have to deny that.
[20:57] Abe
    It's just that there's no one else
    who reacts to me like you do.
[21:00] Abe
    It just feels so new.

[21:03] Abe
    Anyway, how'd the filming trip go?
[21:06] Tetsu
    You're gonna hang around until I tell you?
[21:08] Abe
    Actually, I got into Keio
    U on a recommendation,
[21:11] Abe
    so thankfully, I have
    ample time on my hands.
[21:14] Tetsu
    Shooting that PV with the girls was
    all I wanted out of that trip.
[21:20] Tetsu
    I didn't really get involved
    between the four of them.
[21:24] Tetsu
    If I had to name a winner,
[21:26] Tetsu
    it'd definitely be Kachi.
[21:28] Abe
    Oh?
[21:29] Tetsu
    Maria-chan was so scared of Shida-chan
[21:32] Tetsu
    that she didn't do anything
    to try to stop Kachi.
[21:35] Tetsu
    That's how I saw it.
[21:37] Tetsu
    Kachi must've thought that if she wanted
    to stop Shida-chan's intense attack,
[21:40] Tetsu
    it'd work out better for her
    to be a bit more competitive.
[21:44] Tetsu
    But that was a mistake.
[21:46] Tetsu
    On the last day, all three of
    us filmed them on the stage,
[21:51] Tetsu
    and this is Sueharu's.
[21:53] Abe
    Huh... It's nothing but
    shots of Shirokusa-chan.
[21:57] Tetsu
    Obvious, right?
[21:59] Abe
    It's strange.
[22:00] Abe
    Based on what Shirokusa-chan told me,
     all she did was screw up.
[22:05] Abe
    What on earth happened
    between the two of them?
[22:08] Tetsu
    I didn't see it myself, so to
    be honest, I have no idea.
[22:12] Tetsu
    I guess it means that just
    because the plan failed,
[22:15] Tetsu
    it doesn't mean she failed
    in the romantic aspect.

[22:19] Abe
    Does that mean Shirokusa-chan failing
    actually made his protective instinct kick in?
[22:27] Tetsu
    Well, if we're being frank about it.
[22:29] Abe
    In which case,
[22:31] Abe
    rather than the pushy,
    aggressive Shida-san,
[22:34] Abe
    Maru-kun prefers someone like Shirokusa-chan,
     who's clumsy but always does her best?
[22:40] Tetsu
    That's what I've thought all along.
[22:42] Tetsu
    I mean, he was in love with
     Kachi, not Shida-chan.
[22:45] Abe
    Oh, yeah, that's right.
[22:48] Abe
    Which means this is going
    to be quite a mess.
[22:51] Tetsu
    How so?
[22:52] Abe
    Because...
[22:54] Abe
    Maru-kun and Shirokusa-chan are going
    to live in the same house together.
[23:01] Maru
    Huh? What do you mean?
[23:03] Dad
    Just what I said.
[23:05] Dad
    To take responsibility for your injury,
    Shiro is going to stay at your house
[23:09] Dad
    and take care of all your needs.
[23:11] Dad
    With your dominant arm in that shape,
    you'll have a hard time getting by.

    over with your father.

[08:04] Shion
    Nothing at all.
[08:07] Shion
    More importantly, the bath
    should be ready now.
[08:09] Shion
    Why don't you go ahead?
[08:11] Kachi
    Good idea.
[08:12] Kachi
    Oh, but since it's Su-chan's house,
    he should take the first bath.
[08:15] Kachi
    Wait here. I'll change into
    something that can get wet.

    Su-chan can't use his arm, so I was
    going to wash his back for him.

    Stop.
[10:08] Kachi
    If you try to do anything to him,
[10:11] Kachi
    I'll punish you in a manner befitting
    your barbaric behavior.
[10:15] Guys
    W-We're sorry!
[10:18] Kachi
    If you care about Su-chan,
[10:20] Kachi
    could you avoid causing such commotions?
[10:23] Maria
    You're right. I'll do as you say for today.
[10:27] Kachi
    You can go back to your own classroom now.
[10:30] Kachi
    I've already prepared
    Su-chan's lunch for him.
[10:36] Kachi
    Su-chan, open wide.
[10:39] Maru
    Hang on, Shiro. I don't
    think you should...
[10:42] Maru
    O-Okay, then.
[10:48] Maru
    That's good!
[10:50] Kachi
    I'm so glad. Here, have another.
[10:53] Maru
    Really?
[10:55] Kachi
    Here, Su-chan. Have some rice, too.
[10:57] Maru
    Uh, I can eat the rice myself.
[10:59] Kachi
    This is my apology for getting you hurt.
[11:01] Kachi
    Don't be shy, now. Open wide.
[11:07] (Flashback) Shion
    Don't misunderstand.
[11:12] Maru
    Sorry... I'm gonna go wash my face.
[11:15] Kachi
    Su-chan?
[11:20] Maru
    I can't get the wrong idea.
[11:23] Kuroha
    Haru?
[11:25] Kuroha
    Are you okay?
[11:27] Maru
    Kuro...
[11:30] Kuroha
    Listen... I couldn't ask this morning
    since everyone was around, but...
[11:36] Kuroha
    I really believe everything's
    probably fine,
[11:38] Kuroha
    and based on your reactions,
    I don't think anything happened,
[11:41] Kuroha
    but I still want to make sure...
[11:44] Maru
    You're not acting like yourself, Kuro.
     What is it you want to ask?
[11:49] Kuroha
    Nothing... happened last night, did it?
[11:52] Maru
    Huh? Wh-What are you
    worried about, exactly?
[11:56] Kuroha
    Well, you know...
[11:57] Maru
    O-Of course nothing happened!
[12:00] Kuroha
    R-Really?
[12:01] Maru
    H-Hey... Why don't you trust me?
[12:04] Kuroha
    Because you're a pervert,
    and Kachi-san is pretty.
[12:08] Maru
    A-Are you crazy?! No way!
[12:10] Kuroha
    Really?
[12:11] Maru
    There wasn't even that kind of mood.
[12:14] Maru
    She was super serious about
    helping me study. That's it.
[12:17] Kuroha
    Is that really all?
[12:19] Maru
    Well, also... for some reason,
    we ended up playing Othello all night.
[12:24] Kuroha
    Huh? I don't get it.
[12:26] Maru
    Anyway, don't get all worried
    about anything weird.
[12:29] Maru
    Actually, you seem pretty sullen today.
[12:32] Kuroha
    Dummy. A pervert like you is the last
    person I want to hear that from.
[12:38] Maru
    You've been teasing me a lot lately.
     Just paying you back.
[12:43] Kuroha
    So you did think I was teasing you.
[12:47] Maru
    Even if you're teasing me,
[12:49] Maru
    I love the way you tell
    me you love me, too.
[12:54] Kuroha
    H-Hey... You're copying me!
[12:56] Kuroha
    How dare you copy me?!
[12:59] Maru
    Well, I don't like being on the
    receiving end all the time.

[13:27] Tetsu
    The thing is, I heard from
    Souichirou-san yesterday.
[13:30] Kachi
    What? My dad?
[13:32] Tetsu
    He said a TV station was asking for us.
[13:35] Tetsu
    They want us to make a
    documentary about the period
[13:39] Tetsu
    from Sueharu's disappearance
    up to his return on WeTube.
[13:42] Maru
    Huh?
[13:44] Kachi
    That sounds like a good project.
[13:46] Kachi
    If I hadn't heard everything
    from Su-chan himself,
[13:49] Kachi
    I'd definitely want to watch it.
[13:52] Kachi
    Su-chan's sudden retirement
    really was a shock.
[13:55] Kuroha
    But wouldn't that be
    ignoring how Haru feels?
[13:58] Tetsu
    I know.
[13:59] Tetsu
    Which is why I'm not gonna move on this
    project unless Sueharu gives the okay.
[14:04] Kuroha
    I'm against it.
[14:06] Kuroha
    I know how badly Haru was
    hurt when his mother died,
[14:10] Kuroha
    how lost he was, and how much he suffered.
[14:12] Kuroha
    Even if Haru agrees to be the
    star of a blatant tearjerker,
[14:16] Kuroha
    I'm still against it.
[14:17] Maru
    Kuro...
[14:20] Maru
    I...
[14:22] Maru
    I don't want to see any program
    made that ignores the truth.
[14:27] Maria
    But there's a high risk of
    it turning out that way.
[14:30] Maria
    TV networks are businesses, so their
    priority is to make a profit.
[14:34] Tetsu
    Do you ever feel like you
    want to get closure?
[14:38] Maru
    Closure?
[14:41] Tetsu
    If it's released as a video,
[14:43] Tetsu
    the weekly magazines will probably
    start coming after you,
[14:46] Tetsu
    and people who knew you in the
    past might start talking.
[14:50] Tetsu
    If it's all gonna come out anyway,
    shouldn't you try to get closure
[14:53] Tetsu
    in a way that you can agree with?
[14:59] Kuroha
    But if they decide to make a TV show,
    we won't be able to do anything, right?
[15:03] Kuroha
    And if they ignore Haru's
    wishes and air it...
[15:06] Tetsu
    Which is why...
[15:07] Tetsu
    I was up all night coming up with
    a counter-plan to prevent that.
[15:12] Tetsu
    First, as for Sueharu's documentary,
[15:15] Tetsu
    we will produce it ourselves as
    an Ultramarine Alliance project.
SIGN    Sueharu Documentary
    True Ending
[15:19] Tetsu
    Of course, that'll bring the quality down,
[15:21] Tetsu
    but we'll be able to make it in a
    way that Sueharu agrees with 100%.
[15:25] Maru
    Oh, yeah. Then it wouldn't just
    be a blatant tearjerker.
[15:30] Kachi
    What is this "true ending" thing, then?
[15:34] Tetsu
    The true ending of Child King.
[15:37] Kuroha
    Child King... Isn't that...
[15:39] Maria
    It was Sueharu-oniichan's last acting role.
[15:42] Maria
    As a continuation of the social
    phenomenon Child Star,
[15:45] Maria
    it also became a hot topic.
[15:48] Maria
    It's also the memorable series in which
    Sueharu-oniichan and I first acted together.

[16:54] Tetsu
    A different actor did the

[16:58] Maru
    Obviously. I was only 11 at the time.
[17:01] Maru
    There's no way I could've played a 17-year-old.
[17:04] Tetsu
    And now, you're...
[17:05] Maru
    I'm... 17.
[17:08] Tetsu
    The real 17-year-old Maru Sueharu will
    act out the ending scene of Child King.
[17:13] Tetsu
    In other words, we'll film
    the true ending ourselves.
[17:17] Kachi
    I see. That would definitely
    generate buzz.
[17:21] Kachi
    The TV network might be
    eager to jump on it, too.
[17:24] Kuroha
    Yeah.
[17:24] Kuroha
    Which means...
[17:26] Tetsu
    We politely decline the
    TV network's proposal,
[17:29] Tetsu
    and in return for making it ourselves,
[17:31] Tetsu
    we propose our true ending and
    convince them to compromise.
[17:36] Tetsu
    I don't want to force this on you.
[17:40] Tetsu
    I'm just saying you might be
    okay with doing it this way,
[17:43] Tetsu
    and it could be an efficient way
    to make some profit and fame.
[17:47] Tetsu
    So you decide.

    Ahem!
[19:43] Maria
    Now, why don't you tell us why you
    asked us both to meet you here?
[19:48] Kuroha
    Okay, I'll tell you.
[19:50] Kuroha
    I think we stand out too much at school.
[19:53] Kachi
    Does the one who sniffs
    Su-chan in the classroom
[19:57] Kachi
    and tells everyone she's
    dating him get to say that?
[20:00] Kachi
    You were so obvious right before
    the confession festival
[20:03] Kachi
    that it embarrassed me just to watch.
[20:05] Maria
    She did all that?
[20:07] Maria
    Let me just say, I'm impressed.
[20:09] Kuroha
    What about you?
[20:10] Kuroha
    You come to Haru's class during
    every break and hang all over him.
[20:14] Kuroha
    It's embarrassing just to watch you.
[20:17] Kuroha
    And you, Kachi-san!
[20:18] Kachi
    Me?
[20:19] Kuroha
    What was that all about today?
[20:21] Kuroha
    When you fed him!
[20:23] Kachi
    I got him hurt. I owe him
    that degree of service.
[20:26] Kuroha
    You think that's an excuse to go that far?
[20:28] Kachi
    Again, do you get to say that after
    what you did to him in the library?
[20:34] Maria
    I guess the cat's out of the bag, huh?
[20:37] Kachi
    You said it.
[20:39] Maria
    Actually, I was thinking we need
    to impose a certain limitation.
[20:44] Kuroha
    What's that?
[20:45] Maria
    We know Sueharu-oniichan is a pervert, yes?
[20:49] Maria
    I feel like if Kuroha-san got over him,
[20:51] Maria
    she'd use her feminine wiles
    to create a fait accompli.
[20:54] Maria
    Frankly, that's what scares
    me more than anything.
[20:58] Kuroha
    I'm only a girl! A young maiden!
[21:01] Kuroha
    There's no way I could do that!
[21:02] Maria
    I won't deny that you're a young maiden,
[21:05] Maria
    but I also feel like you need a second title,
[21:10] Maria
    like Devilish Maiden or Strategic Maiden.
[21:13] Kuroha
    If you're going that route, Momo-san,
SIGN    Fuji Safari Park
[21:15] Kuroha
    aren't you a hyena-type
    little sister figure?
[21:17] Maria
    Oh, really? You're going to say
    that about me, Kuroha-san?
[21:21] Maria
    I won't just keep quiet and let
    you talk about me that way!
[21:24] Kuroha
    You haven't kept quiet this whole time.
[21:27] Kuroha
    You're the one who started this, remember?
[21:29] Kachi
    Honestly, the two of you are an eyesore.
[21:32] Both
    Stay out of this, Clunker.
[21:34] Kachi
    Are you two familiar with the rakugo
    routine "Sanbou Ichiryouzon"?
[21:39] Maria
    "Sanbou Ichiryouzon"?
[21:41] Kuroha
    Yeah, uh...
[21:42] Kuroha
    Isn't that about the plasterer who dropped
    three ryo and the carpenter who found them,
[21:46] Kuroha
    but they're both Edokko, so they
    both say they don't need them?
[21:49] Kachi
    Yes. Ohka Ichizen added another ryo to it,
[21:53] Kachi
    so they both got two.
[21:54] Kachi
    So they concluded that everyone
    equally lost one ryo in the deal.
[21:59] Maria
    In other words, Shirokusa-san thinks
    we should all yield one demand
[22:02] Maria
    and accept each other's demands equally.
[22:05] Kuroha
    I guess that's the compromise.
[22:08] Kachi
    So let me just make sure.
[22:10] Kachi
    First, Shida-san, you'll stop
    your "I love you" game.
[22:13] Kuroha
    I had no idea Momo-san knew about that.
[22:16] Kachi
    Shida-san, your answer?
[22:18] Kuroha
    Okay. For now.
[22:20] Kachi
    Hey! That's not allowed!
[22:22] Kuroha
    Tch.
[22:23] Kachi
    Honestly, this girl...
[22:25] Kachi
    I'd like to lecture her for about ten
    hours and wring her out like a washrag.
[22:29] Kachi
    Momosaka-san, you are forbidden to do
    anything thoughtless that will cause a commotion.
[22:34] Maria
    All right, I suppose.
[22:36] Kachi
    Finally, I'll agree to the three of us
    taking care of Su-chan in rotation.
[22:41] Kachi
    The only condition is that Shion
    will be present as a chaperone.
[22:45] Kachi
    Understood?
[22:47] Kuroha
    Got it.
[22:49] Maria
    Oh... Is it all right if I change
    the subject for a moment?
[22:53] Maria
    It's about the documentary.
[22:55] Kachi
    I thought we agreed that was up to Su-chan.
[22:58] Maria
    Of course it is, but I had an idea,
[23:01] Maria
    so I was hoping to get
    both of you to agree.
[23:10] Kuroha
    I see. If that's what you're thinking...
[23:13] Kachi
    I have no objections, either.
[23:16] Kuroha
    I never expected my chance to
    drop into my lap like this!
[23:19] Kuroha
    Now I can count on actually winning!
[23:22] Kachi
    This is a huge chance.
[23:24] Kachi
    Su-chan might finally remember
    what happened that day.
[23:28] Kachi
    And if he does, I'm sure...
[23:30] Maria
    They both fell for it hook, line, and sinker!
[23:33] Maria
    I feel bad for the others,
    but I've won this one!

    Right? I'm a bad guy myself,
[03:45] Tetsu
    so I know how bad guys work.
[03:48] Kuroha
    Are you saying you know
    how we can fight back?
[03:50] Tetsu
    Of course. There've been a few
    developments I didn't expect.
[03:53] Tetsu
    If Sueharu's okay with it,
[03:54] Tetsu
    we can throw a wicked counter that'll
    knock that bastard senseless.
[03:58] Maru
    Me?
[03:58] Tetsu
    Yeah. If you don't agree
    to this plan, it's out.
[04:02] Kachi
    Would you mind telling
    us this plan of yours?
[04:05] Tetsu
    When I pitched the true ending
    idea to that TV network,
[04:08] Tetsu
    a different major company jumped on it.
[04:11] Maru
    A different major... wh—
SIGN    Collect Japan TV
[04:15] Tetsu
    Collect Japan TV.
[04:17] Kachi
    They're the biggest company in Japan!
[04:19] Kuroha
    Isn't that the streaming company
    built through a joint investment
[04:24] Kuroha
    by all the TV networks to counter
    international streaming services?
[04:27] Tetsu
    Yep. Collect is loading up
    on popular old titles now,
[04:31] Tetsu
    and one of the most noteworthy ones is...
[04:34] Maru
    Child King, right?
[04:35] Kuroha
    And the true ending would be
    perfect for generating buzz.
[04:38] Kuroha
    There'd be no better promotion.
[04:40] Tetsu
    Exactly.
[04:42] Tetsu
    So in conclusion,
[04:43] Tetsu
    we make the documentary about Sueharu and
    tell the world that this is the truth.
[04:48] Tetsu
    The image of their star, Sueharu,
    is also an issue for Collect,
[04:51] Tetsu
    so they'll most likely help us.
[04:54] Tetsu
    And that's how we make the weekly
    publications the bad guys.
[04:57] Maru
    I see... That's why you need my approval.
[05:04] Maru
    Will you all help me out?
[05:09] Maru
    All right! Let's crush them!
[05:12] Tetsu
    In that case, the first thing we need
    to do is make the documentary.
[05:17] Maria
    I have a suggestion regarding that.
[05:20] Maria
    The three of us are involved
    in Onii-chan's past, right?
[05:24] Maria
    And all in different ways.
[05:27] Kachi
    So how about a documentary in
    which we act as the interviewers
[05:29] Kachi
    and ask Su-chan about his past?
[05:33] Kuroha
    We'll take turns bringing you to
    places that hold memories for you,
[05:36] Kuroha
    and you can tell us stories from
    your past as you remember them.
[05:41] Maru
    Tetsuhiko, is that okay?
[05:44] Tetsu
    Yeah, I guess so.
[05:45] Tetsu
    What's vital here is how much accurate
    information we can get from you.
[05:50] Tetsu
    I'll start getting the true
    ending ready on my end, too.
[05:53] Maru
    Okay.
[05:54] Kachi
    Then let's not waste time.
[05:56] Kachi
    Want to come over to my
    house this afternoon,
[05:59] Kachi
    Su-chan?
[06:11] Kachi
    Um... I know!
[06:14] Kachi
    So your environment changed drastically
    when Child King became a hit, didn't it?
[06:17] Maru
    Uh, yeah.
[06:18] Maru
    People put me on a pedestal
    both at school and at work,
[06:22] Maru
    even though I hadn't changed
    at all. It was really weird.
[06:27] Maru
    But you still talked to me as an equal,
    and that's why you were so important to me.
[06:32] Maru
    And when you said you'd write a
    story for me, I was really happy.
[06:37] Maru
    I genuinely wanted to act
    in a story that you wrote.
[06:41] Maru
    I never would've guessed that would actually
    happen six years later at the confession festival.
[06:50] Kachi
    Hey, Su-chan...
[06:52] Kachi
    Do you remember when you tried to
    take me away from this house?
[06:58] (Flashback) Maru
    So I went to Tokyo Tower for the
    filming, and the view was awesome!
[07:02] (Flashback) Kachi
    That's so cool. I'd love to see it, too.
[07:05] (Flashback) Maru
    Okay! Let's go right now!
[07:08] (Flashback) Kachi
    Huh?
[07:09] Kachi
    But at the time, I panicked.
[07:12] Kachi
    I wasn't going to school,
    so I couldn't even leave my room.
[07:15] Kachi
    Tokyo Tower just seemed like
    some mysterious, scary place.
[07:18] Kachi
    But because you pulled on my hand
    and kept saying, "Let's go,"
[07:22] Kachi
    I left my room much more
    easily than I had expected.
[07:25] Kachi
    But...
[07:27] Kachi
    Leaving the house was a different story.
[07:29] (Flashback) Maru
    Y-You know, Shirou...
[07:31] (Flashback) Maru
    When there's something I can't do,
    I just think positive and try.
[07:35] (Flashback) Maru
    If it doesn't work out, I just
    accept that I can't help it,
[07:38] (Flashback) Maru
    but I still give it a try.
[07:40] (Flashback) Shiro
    Huh?
[07:41] (Flashback) Shiro
    Even you fail sometimes?
[07:43] (Flashback) Maru
    Of course I do!
[07:45] (Flashback) Maru
    I'm in the lead role, you know.
    That's a lot of pressure!
[07:50] (Flashback) Maru
    So why don't you try
    challenging yourself, too?
[07:54] Kachi
    Even Su-chan, the talented star
    who seemed like Superman to me,
[07:57] Kachi
    had many things he wasn't good at,
[07:59] Kachi
    but he kept trying and never gave up.
[08:02] Kachi
    So I thought, since I had
    nothing going for me,
[08:05] Kachi
    I'd have to try many times harder.
[08:12] (Flashback) Kachi
    I'll challenge myself.
[08:14] (Flashback) Kachi
    Su-chan, take me to Tokyo Tower.
[08:19] (Flashback) Maru
    Let's go!
[08:20] (Flashback) Kachi
    Okay!
[08:20] Kachi
    At that moment, my world changed.
[08:24] Kachi
    I felt like I could go anywhere,
[08:26] Kachi
    even to the ends of the world.
[08:28] Kachi
    I wanted to keep going
    as far as I could go.
[08:31] Kachi
    No matter what anyone else called it,
[08:33] Kachi
    we eloped at that moment.
[08:36] Kachi
    But in the end...
[08:38] Maru
    A bunch of people swarmed
    us at the station,
[08:40] Maru
    and we never made it to Tokyo Tower.
[08:42] Kachi
    You couldn't help it. You were the
    man of the hour at the time,
[08:45] Kachi
    and you were my Superman.
[08:48] Maru
    That's so dramatic.
[08:49] Kachi
    No.
[08:52] Kachi
    At the time, you definitely
    saved one little girl's heart,
[08:56] Kachi
    and got her back on her feet.
[08:59] Kachi
    I'm so glad you're in this world.
[09:03] Maru
    Shiro...
[09:09] Maru
    H-Hey, so...
[09:11] Kachi
    What is it, Su-chan?
[09:13] Maru
    Want to go to Tokyo Tower?
[09:15] Kachi
    Huh?
[09:16] Maru
    I mean, since we didn't
    make it there back then.
[09:19] Maru
    I thought you might...
[09:20] Kachi
    I'd love to!
[09:30] Kachi
    We're back!
[09:32] Maru
    We're back.
[09:33] Shion
    Welcome back.
[09:35] Shion
    You seem quite happy, Shiro-chan.
    Did something nice happen?
[09:39] Kachi
    Yes!
[09:41] Kachi
    Oh! We bought groceries, so I'll
    start making dinner right away!
[09:50] Shion
    What did you do to Shiro-chan?
[09:52] Maru
    Uh, nothing.
[09:54] Maru
    I just went to Tokyo Tower with her.
[09:56] Shion
    Oh? Tokyo Tower? Are you bragging?
[09:58] Shion
    You didn't do anything
    funny to her, did you?!
[10:01] Maru
    No!
[10:02] Maru
    Look! I have pictures to prove it!
[10:05] Shion
    H-How cute!
[10:07] Shion
    Oh, Shiro-chan is just too cute!
[10:09] Shion
    Whose lovely daughter is that?!
    She's my lovely daughter!
[10:12] Maru
    You're on a roll.
[10:12] Shion
    She's so cute, it scares me!
[10:14] Shion
    No one can beat Shiro-chan!
    She'll take over the world!
[10:18] Maru
    Ohragi-san...
[10:19] Shion
    Huh?
[10:20] Maru
    Want to make a deal with me?
[10:22] Maru
    If I give you these priceless
    pictures of Shiro,
[10:26] Maru
    will you be a little more
    friendly toward me?
[10:29] Maru
    Come on, Shion-chan.
[10:32] Shion
    Y-You villain!
[10:34] Maru
    Oh, so that's the attitude
    you're gonna take?
[10:37] Maru
    I guess you don't want
    these pictures, then.
[10:39] Shion
    Gulp...
[10:40] Maru
    Shion-chan, what's your answer?
[10:46] Shion
    I want them!
[10:48] Maru
    Okay, okay.
[10:50] Maru
    I'm a man who keeps his promises.
[10:53] Maru
    Well, there you go...
[10:54] Shion
    Giggle, giggle. Giggle, giggle.
[10:56] Shion
    Now I no longer have a weakness!
[10:59] Shion
    I pretend to keep my promise,
    and then lead you by the nose!
[11:02] Shion
    I must say, I'm such a genius,
     I scare myself!
[11:05] Maru
    Just so you know, I've only
    sent you half the pictures.
[11:10] Shion
    Huh?
[11:12] Shion
    That...
[11:13] Shion
    That's just cruel!
[11:25] Kachi
    Now I've won.
[11:28] Kachi
    My first date with Su-chan...
[11:31] Kachi
    Isn't it fair to say we're a couple now?
[11:34] Kachi
    The fun of that date should be deeply
    engraved in Su-chan's mind now.
[11:38] Kachi
    He'll want to ask me out again,
    we'll get closer,
[11:41] Kachi
    and then... and then...
[11:45] Kachi
    Oh, gosh... How immodest of me.

    I'll help you out!
[12:57] Maria
    Here, Sueharu-oniichan.
    Let's take off all your clothes.
[13:01] Maru
    Whoa, whoa! Momo!
[13:02] Kachi
    H-How can you be so perverted?!
[13:04] Maru
    Hey, Shiro! You're watching!
[13:06] Kachi
    Huh?!
[13:07] Kachi
    Wh-Whatever are you talking about?!
[13:10] Kachi
    I'm not that shameless—
[13:12] Maria
    Sueharu-oniichan, your abs
    are quite well-defined!
[13:16] Maria
    Did you keep up your training
    after you retired?
[13:20] Maru
    Wait... You can't...
[13:21] Maria
    Wow, it's so firm! Amazing!
[13:25] Kachi
    Hey, Momosaka-san, you shouldn't
    keep him to yourself.
[13:29] Maria
    Oh, very well. I'll let you
    have just a tiny bit.
[13:32] Maru
    Don't I have a say here?!
[13:34] Kachi
    It really is firm.
[13:35] Kachi
    So this is what a boy's muscles feel like.
[13:38] Maria
    This is actually my first

[13:50] Shion

[13:51] Shion
    What sort of perverted

[13:54] Shion
    I'm reporting you to the police!
[13:56] Maru
    Hey! Don't say it like that!
[13:58] Maru
    You're gonna give my
    neighbors the wrong idea!
[14:08] Maru
    So you said this was a secret,
    but where are you taking me?
[14:12] Maria
    Now, now, Sueharu-oniichan.
[14:14] Maria
    You'll see soon. There's no
    need to be in such a hurry.
[14:21] (Flashback) Maria
    Okay. I'll try my best.
[14:25] (Flashback) Maria
    I'll try hard enough to catch up to you.
[14:27] (Flashback) Maria
    Will you wait for me until then?
[14:30] (Flashback) Maru
    Of course I will.
[14:33] Maria
    At that moment, my world changed.
[14:36] Maria
    I had a new goal,
[14:38] Maria
    and I was able to think positively
    and change how I presented myself.
[14:42] Maria

    This is where I wanted to bring you.
[16:38] Maria
    Are you angry?
[16:41] Maru
    Nah.
[16:43] Maru
    I knew I'd have to come
    here sooner or later.
[16:51] Maria
    Sueharu-oniichan...
[16:54] Maria
    I know it's painful,
[16:56] Maria
    but could you tell me about
    how your mother passed away?
[17:02] Maru
    Okay.
[17:05] Maru
    Mom was lying on the ground right here.
[17:10] Maru
    In Child King, the protagonist's
    mother dies in the first episode.
[17:14] Maru
    It was supposed to be just for that scene.
[17:18] Maru
    The police investigated and found out that
    the car never even made contact with her.
[17:24] Maru
    Mom had experience with stunt roles,
[17:27] Maru
    but she tried so hard to make her own
    stunt realistic that she hit her head.
[17:31] Maru
    She hit it in just the wrong spot.
[17:34] Maru
    It really was a freak accident.
[17:37] Maru
    When it was announced that Mom had died
    and filming of Child King would cease,
[17:43] Maru
    I opposed it more than anyone else.
[17:46] Maru
    Mom gave her life for the role
    she'd dreamed of playing,
[17:50] Maru
    and I couldn't bear seeing it go to waste.
[17:53] Maru
    That's why I poured all of my energy
    into my role in Child King.
[17:58] Maru
    Because it was my first and last
    time acting alongside my mom.

    Thank you for sharing such
    a painful confession.
[18:25] Maria
    Are you all right?
[18:27] Maru
    Huh? Yeah, I'm not sure what it is.
[18:29] Maru
    I feel like I'm really sad,
[18:32] Maru
    but no tears are coming.
[18:35] Maria
    How is "feeling like you're sad"
    different from "feeling sad"?
[18:40] Maru
    Maybe I'm just confused...
    I'm not really sure.
[18:43] Maru
    I'm not even sure what "sad" means.
[18:47] Maria
    Is that how you felt when
    filming Child King, too?
[18:53] Maru
    I'm not sure.
[18:55] Maria
    Now that I look back on it,

    Momo?
[19:46] Maria
    I always... felt like I needed
    to apologize to you.
[19:52] Maria
    So many things seemed wrong,
    and I was in a position to notice,
[19:57] Maria
    but I didn't notice a thing.
[20:01] Maria
    And on top of that, I said
    something so awful..
[20:05] Maru
    That doesn't bother me, really.
[20:08] Maria
    You say that because you're
    such a nice person,

    I see you're still a perfectionist, Momo.
[20:37] Maru
    I know you won't just do what
    I tell you that easily,
[20:41] Maru
    but don't worry about it.
[20:44] Maria

[20:45] Maria
    I loved your mother, Sueharu-oniichan.
[20:51] Maria
    She was so kind and pretty.
[20:55] Maria
    She was the ideal mother in my mind.
[21:01] Maria
    So... when I found out she died...
[21:06] Maria
    I was... so sad.
[21:13] (Flashback) Mom
    Haru-kun...
[21:15] (Flashback) Maru
    Mom...
[21:19] Maru
    Mom!
[21:19] Maru
    Mom...
[21:26] Maru
    Huh?
[21:30] Maru
    That's weird... Why now?
[21:35] Maru
    Sorry.
[21:37] Maru
    For some reason, I suddenly feel...
[21:40] Maru
    really sad...
[21:57] Maria
    It's okay, Onii-chan.
[22:01] Maria
    That's only natural.

[00:02] Maru
    Just for a minute... really...
[00:06] Maria
    It's all right. I won't tell anyone.
[00:11] Maria
    You know I would never tell
    anyone else about this.
[00:27] Maru
    Thanks for being there today.
[00:28] Maria
    You can cry again if you need to.
[00:30] Maria
    Right into my chest!
[00:32] Maru
    H-Hey! Don't tease me!
[00:34] Maru
    You were crying, too!
[00:37] Maria
    That's mean! When did you
    get so mean, Onii-chan?!
[00:42] Maru
    Okay, sorry.
[00:43] Maria
    If you're going to apologize,
    do it through your actions!
[00:46] Maria
    The best way to heal a wound...
[00:48] Maria
    is to give it a kiss. Everybody knows that!
[00:52] Maria
    So...
[00:53] Maria
    Kiss me right here.
[00:55] Maru
    Why on your lips?!
[00:57] Shion
    Hrgh! Hrgh! Hrgh! Hrgh!
[01:00] Shion
    Hrmph!
[01:02] Maria
    Ohragi-san?!
[01:03] Maru
    Huh?
[01:04] Shion
    You're both violating the
    love pact! No flirting!
[01:08] Maria
    Isn't that a bit rude?
[01:10] Maria
    Shall I punish her?
[01:13] Maru
    Can I talk to you, Momo?
[01:15] Shion
    Hmph!
[01:18] Shion
    No flirting!
[01:22] Maria
    Hey, Sueharu-oniichan, why don't we
    look at your childhood photo album?
[01:26] Maru
    What brought this on?
[01:27] Maria
    The younger Shirokusa-san is in
    some of those photos, isn't she?
[01:31] Maru
    Of course! Shiro was really cute as a kid!
[01:34] Shion
    Flash!
[01:34] Maria
    I want to see!
[01:36] Maru
    But if we look at it together, we'll be
    called out for "violating the love pact."
[01:40] Maru
    There are photos in there I've
    never shown anyone before.
[01:43] Shion
    Previously unseen?!
[01:44] Both
    Don't you want to see them?
[01:46] Maria
    Oh, dear, Ms. Love Police. What happened
    to all the energy you had before?
[01:51] Both
    Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! We wanna
    see Shion-chan's best side!
[01:57] Maru
    They're previously unseen photos.
[01:59] Maria
    Some of them might be real treasures!
[02:03] Shion
    V-Very well...
[02:06] Maria
    What was that? I couldn't hear you clearly.
[02:10] Shion
    I'll let it slide if you'll
    show me these photos!
[02:14] Maria
    You're so easy.
[02:16] Shion
    How aggravating.
[02:18] Shion
    Just one of you is unbearable enough,
    but when it's both of you together...
[02:21] Maria
    Too bad for you!
[02:23] Maria
    Sueharu-oniichan and I
    are the ultimate duo!

    So our plan to calm the waters after

[02:54] Maru
    Already?
[02:55] Tetsu
    Having Collect's help is huge.
[02:58] Tetsu
    But there's no telling when that damn
    president will start shit again.
[03:02] Tetsu
    We need to upload that documentary
    ASAP and wrap all this up.
[03:06] Maru
    Do we know for sure that
    President Shun is in on it?
[03:09] Tetsu
    No, but I'm convinced he is.
[03:11] Maru
    If you believe that, it's probably true.
[03:14] Tetsu
    Collect wants to air the true ending at
    the same time we air the documentary.
[03:19] Tetsu
    Is that cool?

    If we can finish it in time, sure.
[03:22] Maru

[03:25] Tetsu
    Both the child actors from that time
    have left show business already,
[03:28] Tetsu
    so Collect picked Shida-chan
    and Kachi to do it.
[03:31] Maru
    Huh?
[03:32] Tetsu
    And they've both already agreed to it.
[03:36] Maru
    But they're both amateurs!
    Collect is okay with that?
[03:39] Tetsu
    The impression they left with the
    commercial contest is still strong.

[04:02] Maru
    Hey.
[04:05] Maru
    Where are we going?
[04:06] Kuroha
    You'll see when we get there.
[04:09] Kid
    Hey, now!
[04:11] Kid
    There!
[04:12] Kuroha
    I love Haru.
[04:14] Kuroha
    I don't remember when it started,
[04:16] Kuroha
    but I'm pretty sure it was in our
    early elementary school years.
[04:21] Kuroha
    I could give all kinds of reasons for it,
[04:23] Kuroha
    but the biggest reason is
    "there is no reason."
[04:27] Kuroha
    It's what the emotions in the
    deepest part of my heart want.
[04:31] Kuroha
    I believe that's what love is.
[04:34] Kuroha
    When did I start to want Haru so badly,
[04:36] Kuroha
    and when did Haru start to want me?
[04:40] Kuroha
    Until second grade, Haru was a
    totally normal kid like any other.
[04:46] Kuroha
    He caused trouble at times,
    but he was sort of a mood maker,
[04:49] Kuroha
    and I think everyone generally liked him.
[04:52] Kuroha
    When he debuted as an actor in third grade,
[04:55] Kuroha
    he didn't get any major roles.
[04:57] Kuroha
    But after he was chosen for the lead
    role in Child Star in fourth grade,
[05:02] Kuroha
    the environment around him changed.
[05:06] Kuroha
    It seemed like a wall was forming
    between him and everyone else.
[05:10] Kuroha
    He was always very down-to-earth,
[05:13] Kuroha
    so being the center of people's attention
    and envy must have felt gross to him.
[05:18] Kuroha
    He became more and more isolated.
[05:22] Kuroha
    Then in fifth grade,
    that accident happened.
[05:25] Kuroha
    Haru was in a state where nobody's
    voice could reach him.
[05:29] Kuroha
    When he disappeared from TV and people
    started saying irresponsible things,
[05:34] Kuroha
    Haru was so hurt that he wasted
    away and isolated himself.
[05:39] Kuroha
    The reason he still came to my
    house to eat meals so often
[05:42] Kuroha
    was because his father started
    taking on a lot more stunt work.
[05:47] Kuroha
    No matter how deep he sank, he was
    still the same Haru to my sisters.
[05:52] Kuroha
    That's just the sort of kind person he was.
[05:56] Kuroha
    The Haru who was hailed as a star,
[05:58] Kuroha
    the Haru who retired and
    fell into depression,
[06:00] Kuroha
    the Haru who keeps to himself at school,
[06:03] Kuroha
    the Haru who does fun things
    with my sisters...
[06:06] Kuroha
    I'm the only one who's seen all of them.
[06:08] Kuroha
    His good sides, his bad sides,
    his hopes, his disappointments...
[06:12] Kuroha
    I know them all.
[06:15] Kuroha
    Because I'm his childhood friend.
[06:17] Kuroha
    But over time, Haru stopped
    coming to my house as often.
[06:21] Kuroha
    It was during the spring break
    before we started middle school
[06:24] Kuroha
    that things changed drastically
    between Haru and me.
[06:28] Kuroha
    It started when my mom went back to work.
[06:32] Kuroha
    She started asking me to take care of my
    sisters and the house while she was at work.
[06:39] Kuroha
    Why was I the one she
    always asked to do that?
[06:41] Kuroha
    I wish I'd been born a younger sister!
[06:44] Kuroha
    The first time I ran away from
    home, I was angry and scared.
[06:49] Kuroha
    And that's when...
[06:52] Kuroha
    I saw Haru heading off somewhere.
[06:55] Maru
    This is...
[06:57] Kuroha
    Do you remember that day?
[07:00] Maru
    Yeah, how could I forget?
[07:02] Maru
    You followed me all the way up here
[07:05] Maru
    and said you wouldn't leave until
    I told you what I was doing.
[07:11] Maru
    Talk about nostalgic.
[07:21] (Flashback) Maru
    Pretty cool secret base, right?
[07:23] (Flashback) Kuroha
    Yeah.
[07:25] (Flashback) Kuroha
    Why did you come all the way out here?
[07:27] (Flashback) Maru
    I'm embarrassed to say it,
    but I'm afraid to be at home.
[07:30] (Flashback) Kuroha
    Huh?
[07:31] (Flashback) Maru
    When no one else is there... you know...
[07:34] (Flashback) Kuroha
    Then why don't you come to my house?
[07:37] (Flashback) Maru
    Yours is... a little too lively.
[07:40] (Flashback) Maru
    The contrast when I get back
    to my house is too much.
[07:44] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I thought I understood you, but I had no idea.
[07:48] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I'm sorry.
[07:49] (Flashback) Maru
    Y-You don't have to worry about me.
[07:51] (Flashback) Maru
    But why are you here?
[07:53] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I ran away.
[07:54] (Flashback) Maru
    Huh? Why?
[07:56] (Flashback) Maru
    I bet you made your sisters
    eat your cooking, right?
[07:59] (Flashback) Maru
    Then they had to go to the hospital
    and things got awkward.
[08:02] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I'm gonna pound you!
[08:03] (Flashback) Maru
    I'm just kidding.
[08:07] (Flashback) Maru
    I see...
[08:08] (Flashback) Maru
    You did kinda get the short end of
    the stick as the oldest sister.
[08:11] (Flashback) Kuroha
    It doesn't matter anymore.
[08:13] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I can't change the fact
    that I was born first,
[08:16] (Flashback) Kuroha
    and I don't hate being the oldest sister.
[08:18] (Flashback) Kuroha
    I do love my little sisters.
[08:20] (Flashback) Kuroha
    It's nothing compared to
    what you've been through.
[08:23] (Flashback) Maru
    What's the point in comparing it?
[08:25] (Flashback) Kuroha
    Still, it's okay. Thanks, Haru.
[08:30] (Flashback) Maru
    I'm the one who should thank you.
[08:32] (Flashback) Maru
    I'm glad you're here.
[08:34] (Flashback) Maru
    You always worry about me and talk to me.
[08:38] (Flashback) Maru
    I was in such a bad mood,
[08:39] (Flashback) Maru
    but when I saw how upset
    you looked, I couldn't do anything.
[08:43] (Flashback) Maru
    I'm only getting by now because I had you.
[08:47] (Flashback) Kuroha
    So my feelings did get through to you.
[08:51] (Flashback) Maru
    Thanks so much, Kuro. Really.
[08:54] (Flashback) Maru
    You dummy. Why are you crying?
[08:56] (Flashback) Kuroha
    You're crying, too!
[09:01] Kuroha
    I realized that we had a bond,
[09:03] Kuroha
    that there was a special
    connection between us.
[09:06] Kuroha
    And that was the greatest
    memory ever for me.

[09:22] Kuroha
    Hey, Haru... There's something
    important I want to talk about.
[09:24] Maru
    I-Important?
[09:26] Kuroha
    Yeah, very important.
[09:29] Kuroha
    Listen, Haru.
[09:31] Kuroha
    I love you.
[09:32] Kuroha
    I mean that in the romantic sense.
[09:35] Kuroha
    I love you, Haru.
[09:37] Maru
    I'm glad to hear that, but...
[09:38] Maru
    Why did you shoot me down at the
    confession festival, then?
[09:42] Kuroha
    Because... you shot me down first.
[09:45] Maru
    Revenge, then?
[09:50] Kuroha
    Yeah.
[09:52] Kuroha
    I mean, I love you so much,
    but you just said "sorry."
[09:56] Kuroha
    I was so sad and frustrated.
    I just wanted to do something.
[10:01] Maru
    So you hate me?
[10:03] Kuroha
    Yes, I hate you.
[10:04] Kuroha
    But I love you even more.
[10:06] Kuroha
    I rejected you in the heat of the moment,
[10:08] Kuroha
    but there's no way you're
    satisfied with that, right?
[10:10] Kuroha
    So I won't make any excuses.
[10:13] Kuroha
    I figured if you knew that was
    my reason, you'd hate me.
[10:17] Maru
    Kuro...
[10:19] Maru
    You know...
[10:20] Maru
    When you wouldn't tell me how you really felt,
    I didn't understand anything anymore.
[10:25] Maru
    It hurt so much, and made me so sad.
[10:28] Maru
    I just wanted you to be honest with me.
[10:31] Maru
    But now...
[10:33] Maru
    More than anything, I'm just
    glad you finally told me.
[10:37] Kuroha
    Haru...
[10:38] Kuroha
    I was just so weak and cowardly. I'm so sorry.
[10:42] Maru
    I caused you a lot of
    trouble, too. We're even.
[10:47] Kuroha
    Thanks.
[10:50] Kuroha
    Haru, can you give me an answer now?
[10:54] Maru
    Huh?
[10:55] Maru
    Answer?
[10:56] (Flashback) Kachi
    I'm so glad you're in this world.
[10:59] (Flashback) Maria
    Onii-chan and I are the ultimate duo!
[11:02] Maru
    H-Hang on...
[11:04] Maru
    Let me get all this straight.
[11:06] Maru
    Do I love Kuro? That's a definite yes.
[11:08] Kuroha
    Yay!
[11:10] Maru
    Do I accept her feelings, then?
[11:12] Maru
    I want to, but...
[11:15] Maru
    I can't say that Kuro is the only
    one I love 100% right now.
[11:18] Maru
    Should I really accept her feelings
    when my own aren't all there?
[11:23] Maru
    I'm really grateful to Kuro,
[11:25] Maru
    so I need to go about this the right way.
[11:30] Maru
    What would be best for her?
[11:33] Maru
    Keeping in mind the future
    and everything else,
[11:35] Maru
    what answer would make her the happiest?
[11:38] Maru
    K-Kuro, I...
[11:41] Kuroha
    And time's up.
[11:43] Kuroha
    Huh?
[11:45] Kuroha
    Sorry, but I set a secret rule that
    if you took longer than ten seconds,
[11:49] Kuroha
    I wouldn't accept your response.
[11:51] Kuroha
    So I won't wait for your answer any longer.
[11:55] Maru
    What the hell? Is that
    a rule of confessing?
[11:58] Kuroha
    I think you hesitated because there's
    a certain girl you can't forget.
[12:03] Kuroha
    Right?
[12:05] Kuroha
    If that's how you feel, I don't want
    you to come to a conclusion right now.
[12:09] Kuroha
    It's not good to date someone
    if you're only half-committed.
[12:12] Kuroha
    But not everything in this
    world is black or white.
[12:16] Kuroha
    It's all shades of gray.
[12:18] Kuroha
    So I'm proposing the concept
    of a "childhood girlfriend."
[12:22] Maru
    Childhood girlfriend? So a girlfriend
    who's like a childhood friend?
[12:27] Kuroha
    That, plus "a girlfriend you
    want to keep a hold on."
[12:30] Maru
    Huh?
[12:31] Kuroha
    I know you think favorably of me.
[12:35] Kuroha
    I think getting awkward because you won't
    date me despite that would be too extreme.
[12:39] Maru
    Well, yeah... Friends of the
    opposite sex are precious,
[12:43] Maru
    so I'd be sad to lose one
    over a love confession.
[12:46] Kuroha
    Besides, we're childhood friends, right?
[12:49] Kuroha
    But that's not a relationship that ends when
    one of us confesses or gets rejected.
[12:55] Kuroha
    So if we talk it out, we should be able
    to find even better common ground.
[13:01] Maru
    And that's a "childhood girlfriend"?
[13:03] Kuroha
    Yeah.
[13:04] Kuroha
    It's a promise that even though
    we're not going to date now,
[13:07] Kuroha
    we will later if the
    circumstances are right.
[13:11] Maru
    That's not just saving someone for later?
[13:13] Kuroha
    No, that has ulterior motives,
[13:15] Kuroha
    and it gives the advantage to the
    one who's been confessed to.
[13:18] Kuroha
    A childhood girlfriend is just a promise,
[13:20] Kuroha
    so it keeps us equal.
[13:22] Kuroha
    If I decide that I don't like
    this relationship, it's over.
[13:26] Kuroha
    It can be ended at any time, but there's
     no time limit on a response,
[13:31] Kuroha
    so no one has to stress out or kill all
    other thoughts to settle on an answer.
[13:35] Kuroha
    If one of us takes an interest in someone else,
     the other can't fault them.
[13:39] Kuroha
    But there's still a risk of being rejected.
[13:41] Kuroha
    It's a relationship based on a
    promise that includes all that.
[13:45] Maru
    I think I get it, but maybe not...
[13:47] Maru
    What is it like, specifically?
[13:50] Kuroha
    Well, let me see. For example...
[13:56] Kuroha
    Holding hands is no problem, right?
[14:00] Kuroha
    We both know we like each other,
[14:02] Kuroha
    so it's actually recommended.
[14:04] Maru
    What?!
[14:06] Maru
    And what about dating?
[14:07] Kuroha
    I think it's fine.
[14:08] Maru
    Touching shoulders or hips?
[14:10] Kuroha
    Depends on the time and place.
[14:11] Maru
    What about foreheads and cheeks?
[14:13] Kuroha
    Depends on the time, place,
    and type of touch.
[14:16] Maru
    And kissing?
[14:17] Kuroha
    I think that's the sign that
    you're ready to be a couple.
[14:20] Maru
    And touching your chest?
[14:21] Kuroha
    Scummy.
[14:23] Kuroha
    Honestly, Haru...
[14:25] Maru
    Damn it!
[14:26] Maru
    My patience! That's a high
    school boy's instinct!
[14:31] Kuroha
    You really are a dummy, you know that?
[14:34] Kuroha
    That's something to look forward to
    after you start going out, isn't it?
[14:40] Maru
    Crap! My IQ is melting away...
[14:46] Kuroha
    You'd better be ready, Haru.
[14:48] Kuroha
    If you kiss me or do anything pervy,
    we're officially a couple.
[14:52] Maru
    I'm fine with this childhood
    girlfriend thing, but are you?
[14:55] Kuroha
    Of course I am.
[14:57] Kuroha
    It puts me in a position close to being
    your girlfriend without getting rejected.
[15:02] Kuroha
    And if I have a chance at being your
    girlfriend with enough effort...
[15:05] Kuroha
    It'll motivate me to try harder
    at all kinds of things!
[15:09] Kuroha
    But you have to put effort in, too.
[15:11] Kuroha
    If you don't give me enough attention,
[15:14] Kuroha
    I might just go away.
[15:16] Maru
    O-Okay... I'll try.
[15:19] Maru
    With studying, especially.
[15:20] Kuroha
    That's right.
[15:21] Kuroha
    Your big sister will help you again.
[15:26] Kuroha
    Also, this relationship is a secret. Okay?
[15:31] Maru
    Y-Yeah... I got it.
[15:36] Maru
    Logic is melting...
[15:39] Kuroha
    Come on, we're going home, Haru. Walk!
[15:42] Maru
    R-Right...

SIGN     Legendary child actor Maru-chan,
     now in high school, has a new...
SIGN     What happened to Maru-chan that day:
     a documentary of the true...
[16:36] Abe
    No, we never cleared up that
    initial misunderstanding.
[16:39] Abe
    I don't know how I'd even approach him.
[16:41] Tetsu
    Oh, God, you sound like an actual fan.
[16:44] Abe
    I don't feel ashamed or anything.
[16:46] Abe
    I got to tell you instead.
    Did it bother you?
[16:51] Abe
    So, my thoughts on all this.
[16:54] Abe
    I think the top winner was you.
[16:57] Abe
    You knew what President Shun
    was doing from the start.
[17:00] Abe
    President Shun's goal was to use
    Maru-kun's past to damage him.
[17:05] Abe
    So you decided to produce a documentary,
[17:09] Abe
    so that Maru-kun could
    overcome his past himself.
[17:11] Abe
    The idea of having all three
    girls who love Maru-kun
[17:14] Abe
    take him to places where they have
    memories with him was fantastic.
[17:18] Tetsu
    That was Maria-chan's idea, actually.
[17:20] Abe
    Oh?
[17:22] Abe
    I thought if it wasn't your idea,
    it must've been Shida-san's.
[17:24] Tetsu
    Shida-chan doesn't contribute
    much on the creative end.
[17:28] Tetsu
    She was a beast again as far as the romantic
    aspect and Sueharu went, though.
[17:32] Abe
    Did she do something?
[17:34] Tetsu
    She was in the tightest pinch she's
    been in since he rejected her.
[17:37] Tetsu
    Kachi stayed at Sueharu's house
    and used her best charms on him,
[17:42] Tetsu
    but Sueharu got tired of the
    whole battle of appeal.
[17:45] Tetsu
    Not to mention, his heart was leaning
    toward Kachi on the Okinawa trip.
[17:49] Tetsu
    Then the three of them had a meeting and
    made it a "Sanbou Ichiryouzon" deal.
[17:53] Tetsu
    Did you notice that Kachi had the
    biggest disadvantage there?
[17:57] Abe
    Huh?
[17:58] Tetsu
    The only disadvantage Shida-chan and
    Maria-chan had was cutting back on the charms.
[18:02] Tetsu
    Kachi had to live with him.
    That's obviously overkill.
[18:05] Abe
    Good point.
[18:06] Tetsu
    And Kachi, the one with the biggest disadvantage,
    was the one Shida-chan got this agreement out of.
[18:10] Abe
    Scary.
[18:12] Tetsu
    But the real game is just getting started.
[18:14] Abe
    Meaning?
[18:15] Tetsu
    After filming her part of the documentary,
    Shida-chan confessed to Sueharu again.
[18:20] Tetsu
    And the moment she could tell he was
    going to reject her, she canceled it,
[18:24] Tetsu
    and then she proposed a "childhood
    girlfriend" relationship.
[18:27] Abe
    Childhood girlfriend?
[18:28] Tetsu
    Not "more than friends,
    but less than lovers,"
[18:31] Tetsu
    but "a girlfriend who's like a childhood
    friend that you want to keep a hold on."
[18:34] Abe
    She came up with that? No wonder
    Shirokusa-chan's struggling.
[18:39] Tetsu
    Personally, I thought she hit
    him in just the right spot.
[18:44] Tetsu
    I think feelings for another person
[18:46] Tetsu
    often start with thinking that they
    have some kind of interest in you.
[18:52] Tetsu
    If just one side has those feelings,
    it'll never go anywhere,
[18:55] Tetsu
    so the art of telling them you like them
    without openly confessing it becomes crucial.
[18:59] Abe
    People who are skilled in relationships
    have that going for them.
[19:02] Tetsu
    Shida-chan threw the ultimate
    punch of a confession
[19:04] Tetsu
    in the way that would hit him the hardest,
[19:06] Tetsu
    then saved their relationship with the
    "childhood girlfriend" label as insurance,
[19:08] Tetsu
    creating a way to move forward.
[19:11] Tetsu
    Gotta respect her ability to come
    up with ideas and act on them.
[19:14] Abe
    I'd never have the guts to suggest
    being a childhood boyfriend,
[19:16] Abe
    or the strength to actually make it happen.
[19:18] Tetsu
    Agreed. If I ever suggested that,
     I'd be killed.
[19:23] Tetsu
    Anyway, I had nothing but praise
    for Shida-chan all along,
[19:26] Tetsu
    but at the same time, I kinda thought she
    was just a desperate high school girl.
[19:30] Abe
    What do you mean?
[19:31] Tetsu
    Well, she confessed to him,
    but didn't become his girlfriend.
[19:35] Tetsu
    But Sueharu is still beside her.
[19:37] Tetsu
    That basically means they're back where
    they were before the confession festival.
[19:40] Tetsu
    If she'd ditched her pride
    and kept apologizing,
[19:43] Tetsu
    they'd probably be dating right now.
SIGN    The same goes for
    Shirokusa-chan...
[19:45] Abe
    Pride isn't that easy to just throw away.
[19:47] Tetsu
    Of course.
[19:49] Tetsu
    Which is why I think she's just a
    desperate high school girl deep down.
[19:54] Abe
    By the way, how do you know
    Shida-san confessed to him?
[19:57] Tetsu
    She told me herself.
[19:59] Tetsu
    She said I'd either figure it out or drag
    it out of Sueharu eventually anyway,
[20:04] Tetsu
    so she gave me an explanation
    and a warning in advance.
[20:06] Abe
    A warning?
[20:07] Tetsu
    "If you tell anyone,
    be ready to pay for it."
[20:10] Abe
    Wait, but you just—
[20:11] Tetsu
    If it gets out, you're just as guilty as me.
[20:13] Abe
    You mean in the sense that if you tell
    someone else, you can blame me?
[20:19] Tetsu
    You think I would've told you if I didn't
    stand to gain at least that much?
[20:23] Abe
    Oh, man...
SIGN    Hozumino High School
[20:28] Tetsu
    By the way, did you know
    you have a fan club now?
[20:32] Maru
    What? For real?
[20:33] Tetsu
    It sounds like a lie, but it's true.
[20:35] Maru
    Oh, man, what am I gonna do?
     I'm that popular now?
[20:39] Maru
    I didn't even really do anything.
[20:42] Girl
    Isn't Maru-senpai hot?
[20:44] Girl
    I watched his dance video a hundred times!
[20:46] Kuroha
    Huh... Haru has a fan club, eh?
[20:49] Kachi
    So there are some scumbags hoping
    to make a pass at Su-chan.
[20:53] Maria
    It looks like they need
    to learn their place.
[20:56] Kuroha
    I'll crush them.
[20:57] Kachi
    I'll destroy them.

[23:11] Ren
    I was?
[23:12] Hinaki
    We all waited for you.
[23:15] Mirei
    So many times, we thought
    you'd never wake up again.
[23:19] Nina
    Welcome back, Ren-kun.
[23:21] Ren
    Thanks.
[23:22] Ren
    It's because of you three that I could...
[23:24] Ren
    no, that I made it back.
[23:29] Ren
    As long as I have you three...
[23:31] Ren
    I don't need anything else.
[23:36] Ren
    Thank you.
