Shida Kuroha...
[00:01] Maru
I love you!
[00:10] Maru
A dream...
[00:11] Maru
No, stop! Don't remember it!
[00:12] Maru
Nothing happened!
[00:14] Maru
Yeah! I'm going with that!
[00:15] (Flashback) Maru
I need you!
[00:19] Maru
Nope.
[00:20] Maru
Okay... I'll play gravure idol
shiritori for a change of pace!
[00:24] Maru
A... Anzai Maaya.
[00:27] Maru
Next is ya... ya...
[00:29] (Flashback) Kuroha
No.
[00:31] Maru
Idiot! Idiot! I'm such an idiot!
[00:34] Maru
Did I think my chance of success
was 100% as long as I beat Abe?!
[00:38] Maru
Did I think there was no way Kuro
would refuse?! Was I that cocky?!
[00:44] Kuroha
Ugh! Stupid Haru! Stupid! Stupid!
[00:48] Kuroha
It's all your fault, you know!
[00:50] Kuroha
If you had accepted me when I confessed
the first time, this wouldn't have...
[00:56] Kuroha
I got him back too good.
[00:59] Kuroha
I mean, at first, I thought
about getting revenge...
[01:02] Kuroha
But up until that moment, I planned
to say yes if he confessed to me.
[01:08] Kuroha
I'm hopeless, aren't I?
[01:10] Kuroha
What do I do?
[01:15] Kuroha
But... I can't just lose.
[01:21] Kuroha
Because I love him.
[01:24] Kachi
Su-chan...
[01:26] Kachi
You really did look amazing.
[01:30] Kachi
Su-chan...
[01:32] (Flashback) Maru
Shiro...
[01:33] (Flashback) Maru
I... was in love with you.
[01:36] Maru
...was... was... was... was...
[01:43] Kachi
Su-chan, you idiot!
[01:45] Kachi
I tried so hard!
[01:47] Kachi
I made you fall for me, just like
I said... and yet... and yet...
[01:51] Kachi
Su-chan, you cheating jerk!
[01:53] Kachi
Why would you turn to another
girl after saying you loved me?!
[01:56] Kachi
Idiot! Idiot! Idiot!
[01:58] Kachi
You're an idiot, Su-chan.
[02:00] Kachi
But I love you.
[02:02] Maru
I got shot down in front of everyone
after putting on a show like that!
[02:05] Maru
What do I do now?! How can I
even show myself at school?!
[02:10] Kuroha
If that loser wasn't around,
this wouldn't have...
[02:13] Kachi
That's right. It's not Su-chan's fault.
[02:16] Kachi
It was all that little homewrecker!

please come to the faculty room.
[04:10] Maru
Huh? What for?
[04:12] Tetsu
Damn, they picked up on that
faster than I thought.
[04:16] Maru
Uh, Tetsuhiko, you're giving me a
really bad feeling right now.
[04:20] Tetsu
Hey, sorry. Are you already here?
[04:23] Maru
Hey.
[04:24] Tetsu
Would you mind backing off just a bit?
[04:26] Tetsu
Yeah. Yeah, that's great, thanks.
[04:29] Maru
Tetsuhiko, what was that?
[04:30] Tetsu
Huh? A TV station.
[04:32] Maru
TV?! Why?
[04:34] Tetsu
I uploaded a video from our
cultural festival to WeTube,

SIGN Legendary Child Actor Maru-chan
[05:03] Guy
It's quite a big deal to see how
the legendary child actor Maru-chan
[05:06] Guy
looks in high school after he
disappeared from the scene,
[05:09] Guy
but the way we see it...
Talk about the joys of adolescence!
[05:13] Guy
Shida-chan sure is cute.
[05:15] Guy
Think we could get her in the studio?
[05:16] Guy
I want to hear her say "no" to me, too.
[05:19] Maru
H-Huh?
[05:23] Maru
Tetsuhiko, damn it! This is
airing all over the country!
[05:27] Tetsu
What's wrong with that?
[05:29] Tetsu
Why do you think I was helping
you behind the scenes?
[05:33] Maru
You bastard! I thought you were being
unusually helpful! That was why?!
[05:37] Tetsu
Obviously! Why would I help if
there was nothing in it for me?!
[05:41] Tetsu
Thanks for all the tasty ad revenue!
[05:44] Maru
Screw you, you absolute scumbag!
[05:48] Kuroha
Stupid Haru! I can't even
walk around outside now!
[05:52] Kachi
Su-chan, you'd better take
responsibility for this.
[05:56] Maria
Sueharu-oniichan!
[06:03] Maria
Sueharu-oniichan!
[06:06] Guy
H-Hey, isn't that...
[06:07] Guy
...that actress who's insanely
popular right now?!
[06:10] Guy
Momosaka Maria from
The Perfect Little Sister?!
[06:14] Maria
Sueharu-oniichan, it's me! It's your Momo!
[06:18] Maru
Ow...
[06:20] Maru
Momo, you gotta learn to
take it down a notch.
[06:22] Maria
But I've missed you so much all these years!
[06:27] Maru
It has been a long time, huh?
[06:29] Maru
Oh, I've seen your work, though.
[06:32] Maru
You were great as the lead in
The Perfect Little Sister.
[06:36] Maria
Really? I'm so glad!
[06:38] Kachi
Su-chan, who is this?
[06:40] Kuroha
I think I'd like an explanation, too, Haru.
[06:44] Maria
Oh, I saw you two in that video.
You're the girls from his past.
[06:49] Both
What?
[06:50] Maria
I mean, you're the girl
Onii-chan used to like
[06:54] Maria
and the girl who rejected him. Right?
[06:58] Maria
Don't worry, Sueharu-oniichan!
[07:00] Maria
I'll make you forget all about
the girls from your past!
[07:04] Kachi
Oh, really?
[07:06] Kachi
I'm just a girl from your past, am I, Su-chan?
[07:09] Kuroha
So, Haru, you just throw me away
when a replacement comes along?
[07:13] Kuroha
I see.
[07:15] Maru
Sh-She's just someone from my agency!
[07:17] Maru
I was her senpai, so I looked out for her.
[07:20] Maria
Yes, exactly!
[07:22] Maria
He taught me acting and how
to communicate with co-stars,
[07:26] Maria
and all kinds of... other things, too.
[07:29] Both
Other things?
[07:30] Maria
Yes, other things.
[07:33] Maria
But then he suddenly retired...
[07:35] Maria
So when I saw the video,
I couldn't stop myself.
[07:38] Maru
Okay, Momo, I get it. Now let go of me!
[07:41] Maru
You're popular now! If anyone sees
you like this, you'll be in trouble!
[07:44] Maria
I don't care as long as it's
you I'm with, Onii-chan.
[07:48] Maria
After all...
[07:49] Maria
Sueharu-oniichan is my first love.
[07:53] Guys
What?!
[07:56] Tetsu
This morning was pretty crazy, huh, Sueharu?
[07:59] Maru
Crazy doesn't describe it!
Whose fault do you think that was?!
[08:02] Tetsu
Yeah, I know.
[08:04] Tetsu
That's why I'm treating you to lunch.
[08:09] Maru
Dude, this is good!
[08:11] Tetsu
Right?
[08:11] Maru
So good! So good!
[08:13] Guy
How dumb is he?
[08:15] Guy
After all that, he's letting
him off the hook for pizza?
[08:18] Maru
I mean, I can't be that mad at Tetsuhiko.
[08:21] Maru
If I decide to return to acting, that*
video would be excellent promotion.
[08:26] Maru
He probably did it hoping
that it would help me out.
[08:30] Maru
So...
[08:32] Maru
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 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,

even if I have to use forbidden wisdom that
humans have kept hidden in the darkness.

If you're gonna play dumb,
just leave right now!

I guess it came to me because
I'm such a good person.
[17:24] (Flashback) Mom
It's been so long!

I suppose it'd be okay to lend you the key.

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.
[19:43] Maru
Save you? Momo, is something
going on with you?
[19:47] Maru
Did someone dig up dirt on you
and make some nasty demands?

[19:53] Maru
President and CEO of
Hardy Pro... Hardy Shun?
[19:58] Maru
Hang on a sec.
[20:00] Maru
Wasn't Auntie Nina the
president of the agency?
[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
down to her son, Shun-san,
[20:15] Maria
and now she's traveling the
world with her husband.
[20:17] Maru
Wow, that's so like her.
[20:20] Maru
She was always the type to
immediately act on every whim.
[20:23] Maru
But as long as she's well,
I guess we can see her again.
[20:26] Maria
Shun-san saw you in the video and asked me
[20:28] Maria
to talk you into returning to show business.
[20:32] Maria
Of course, I had every intention
of doing that anyway...
SIGN President and CEO
[20:35] Maru
Shun-san, huh?
[20:37] Maru
I've never even heard of him.
[20:39] Maru
Auntie Nina never mentioned him at all.
[20:41] Maria
I guess he never got along
well with his parents.
[20:44] Maru
What do you think of him?
[20:46] Maria
He is definitely competent.
[20:48] Maru
What else? How about his personality?
[20:51] Maria
I think it would be best if
you found out for yourself.
[20:55] Maria
Would you at least meet with him?
SIGN President and CEO
[20:58] Maru
Well...
[21:00] Maru
Huh? There's a second card.
[21:03] Maria
Would you mind giving the second
one to Kuroha-san for me?
[21:06] Maru
Kuro? Wait, you mean the president...
[21:09] Maria
Yes. He took an interest in Kuroha-san
after seeing the video, too.
[21:14] Maria
He wants both of you to come by together.

[21:21] Midori
Hey, Sueharu!
[21:22] Midori
Why do you have this thing on the door?!
[21:24] Midori
Open up!
[21:26] Maru
Oh, Midori, it's you.
[21:28] Maru
You're as pushy as ever, I see.
[21:30] Midori
You're not in there with a girl, are you?!
[21:33] Maru
I'll release the chain, okay?
Just let me close it first.
[21:39] Midori
Sueharu! What's taking so long?
[21:43] Midori
Jeez, you should've opened it right away.
[21:46] Maru
Aoi-chan and Akane, too?
[21:48] Maru
Why are all three of you here at this hour?
[21:51] Midori
You know why! Kuro-nee's lost her mind!
[21:56] Maru
Lost her mind? Kuro? What do you mean?
[21:59] Aoi
P-Please just listen calmly, Haru-niisan.
[22:02] Akane
Kuro-nee seems to have developed amnesia.
[22:07] Maru
Amnesia?!
