[00:01] Motoharu
    I'm pretty decent at communicating.
[00:04] Motoharu
    For me, as someone whose job
    it is to write about people,
[00:07] Motoharu
    age and sex are just characteristics,
[00:09] Motoharu
    so I've never perceived either as a barrier.
SIGN    Feels like he's totally getting stared at...
SIGN    Badump
    
    Badump
SIGN    Uneasy
SIGN    Tends to drink something
    when he's in a tough spot.
SIGN    Gulp
[00:18] Motoharu
    A seven-year age difference
    basically isn't a thing for me.
[00:23] Motoharu
    So I thought we'd open up to
    each other by now, but still...
[00:27] Motoharu
    Hayate.
[00:29] Motoharu
    That's my coffee.
SIGN    Spit
SIGN    #22
    Summer Festival
[02:03] Hayate
    I'm so sorry!
[02:05] Motoharu
    It's fine.
[02:06] Motoharu
    You can finish it.
[02:07] Shun
    Indirectly kissing a guy is so lame.
[02:09] Motoharu
    Huh?
[02:10] Motoharu
    I guess you'd rather be indirectly
    kissing a girl, right?
[02:13] Motoharu
    That makes sense.
[02:15] Shun
    How does that make sense?!
[02:16] Shun
    Are you stupid?
[02:17] Shun
    You're dumb!
[02:17] Shun
    Stupid! Stupid!
[02:19] Motoharu
    Your small vocabulary is cute.
[02:21] Souma
    Shun, I don't think you can
    ever win against Motoharu-kun.
[02:24] Hayate
    I really am sorry.
[02:28] Motoharu
    Hayate, look at me.
SIGN    Frozen
[02:31] Hayate
    I can't.
[02:32] Shun
    You've been nervous this whole time.
[02:33] Souma
    You're so easy to read, Hayate-kun.
[02:37] Motoharu
    There's no reason to be so nervous, though.
[02:40] Motoharu
    I wonder how far he'll get
    at today's summer festival.
[02:45] Hayate
    Mima-san said he's leaving his office now.
[02:47] Souma
    Then we should get going, too.
[02:53] Mima
    I'm heading out now.
[02:55] Souta
    See you tomorrow!
[02:56] Souta
    Well, this is pretty rare.
[02:58] Souta
    You're actually leaving on time.
[03:00] Mima
    Yes.
[03:00] Mima
    I was invited to the summer festival.
[03:03] Both
    The summer festival?
[03:05] Both
    With a girl?!
[03:07] Mima
    They're all guys.
[03:08] Wom
    Boring.
[03:10] Wom
    I'll get ready to go home too.
[03:12] Souta
    Ah, man.
[03:14] Souta
    Well, I can't really imagine you
    on a date with a woman anyway.
[03:18] Mima
    Souma-kun is going to be there too.
[03:20] Souta
    Oh, yeah, he said he was going to eat
    dinner tonight at the food stalls.
[03:23] Mima
    Would you like to join us?
[03:25] Souta
    I'll pass.
[03:26] Souta
    I'll have him bring something home for me.
[03:28] Souta
    You don't have a festival every day.
[03:30] Souta
    Have fun!
[03:31] Mima
    All right.
[03:33] Souma
    They have candied apples.
[03:34] Souma
    And candied strawberries too!
[03:35] Shun
    The sauces all smell so good.
[03:37] Shun
    This is bordering on violence.
[03:38] Shun
    I'm starving.
[03:40] Souma
    It's not surprising, but
    this place is packed.
[03:42] Shun
    You think we'll find Mima-san?
[03:44] Hayate
    He should be around here somewhere.
[03:47] Motoharu
    There.
[03:48] Shun
    It's good he's so tall.
[03:51] Mima
    Good evening.
[03:52] All
    Good evening!
[03:53] Souma
    Have you been waiting long?
[03:54] Mima
    Oh, not at al—
SIGN    Tada
[03:57] Mima
    You're really part of the group, huh.
[03:59] Motoharu
    Right?
[04:00] Motoharu
    Though I'm the only one around 30.
[04:02] Souma
    Did you get bit by a mosquito?
[04:04] Mima
    Ah, yes, it does happen more
    often if you stand still.
[04:08] Mima
    It's itchy.
[04:10] Motoharu
    You don't seem like the type
    to get bitten by mosquitoes.
[04:13] Mima
    No, I really...
SIGN    Slap!!
[04:17] Motoharu
    Huh?
SIGN    Mole
[04:22] Mima
    Oh. That was a mole.
[04:24] Mima
    It was nothing.
[04:25] Mima
    Shall we?
[04:26] Motoharu
    Ouch.
[04:28] All
    I guess he's really sensitive
    to mosquitoes now.
[04:32] Souma
    Shun, they've got your omelet soba.
SIGN    Omelet soba
[04:34] Shun
    I want some!
[04:35] Motoharu
    Don't worry about it.
[04:36] Motoharu
    You kids don't have to
    take out your wallets.
[04:38] Both
    Kids?
[04:39] Shun
    You mean you're paying?
[04:40] Shun
    What a god!
[04:41] Souma
    Are you sure?
[04:42] Motoharu
    Leave it to the adults.
[04:44] Motoharu
    Takayuki, let's use rock-paper-scissors
     to decide who pays for each one.
[04:48] Mima
    Sure.
[04:50] Hayate
    Mima-san and Igarashi-sensei
    really were classmates, huh?
[04:51] Both
    Rock, paper, scissors!
[04:53] Both
    Again!
[04:54] Hayate
    It's so amazing that they're friends.
[04:55] Both
    Again!
[04:56] Motoharu
    I win!
[04:57] Motoharu
    So that means you pay for this one, Takayuki!
[05:00] Mima
    Got it.
[05:01] Mima
    Shun-kun, how many portions do we need?
[05:03] Shun
    Let me see...
[05:05] Souma
    I'll help you carry them.
[05:09] Motoharu
    We'll go get some takoyaki.
[05:11] Souma
    Okay!
[05:12] Shun
    Extra mayo on mine!
[05:13] Motoharu
    Okay.
[05:15] Motoharu
    Let's go.
[05:16] Hayate
    H-Huh?!
[05:21] Motoharu
    Hayate, we'll get separated
    if you fall too far behind.
[05:25] Hayate
    I'm really sorry!
[05:28] Motoharu
    No need to be nervous.
[05:31] Motoharu
    I'm really happy to know
    you as one of my readers,
[05:35] Motoharu
    but I'd also really like to get
    to know you as one of my friends.
[05:39] Hayate
    I'm really sorry.
[05:41] Motoharu
    I got rejected...
[05:42] Motoharu
    Maybe I shouldn't push too much.
[05:45] Hayate
    I...
[05:47] Hayate
    I really love your books!
[05:51] Hayate
    If I were to get involved
    in your day-to-day life,
[05:56] Hayate
    I might indirectly influence
    your inspiration somehow,
[05:59] Hayate
    and then it would not longer be a
    100% pure Igarashi Motoharu world!
[06:03] Hayate
    When I'm before you,
    I just want to be a rock.
SIGN    A nerd who wants to be a
SIGN    rock before one of his gods
[06:11] Motoharu
    I can see you are a passionate reader.
SIGN    Takoyaki
[06:16] Motoharu
    You don't have to worry about all that.
[06:19] Motoharu
    Is this place okay for the takoyaki?
[06:21] Hayate
    Yes.
[06:23] Hayate
    Sorry for thinking I could
    actually do anything.
[06:26] Hayate
    I'm just a rock.
[06:28] Motoharu
    That's not what I meant.
[06:31] Motoharu
    I'll take four sets of six, please.
[06:33] Motoharu
    One of them with extra mayo.
[06:35] Guy
    Coming right up!
[06:36] Motoharu
    The first protagonist I ever
    wrote was based off of Takayuki.
[06:42] Motoharu
    I was excited about the work of remolding
[06:45] Motoharu
    something I experienced in
    real life into something else.
[06:48] Motoharu
    Whoever I meet,
[06:50] Motoharu
    whatever I do,
[06:52] Motoharu
    anything I've absorbed—
[06:54] Motoharu
    it all becomes my own as
    soon as I put it on paper.
[06:58] Motoharu
    So I want you to relax
    and stay as my reader,
[07:01] Motoharu
    but I'd also like you to be my friend.
[07:04] Hayate
    He's so cool...
SIGN    Bow
[07:06] Hayate
    Thank you so much.
[07:07] Hayate
    And I'm sorry.
[07:10] Motoharu
    And over time, you can
    stop holding back, too.
[07:12] Motoharu
    Shall we go back and join the others?
[07:15] Hayate
    Right.
SIGN    Takoyaki
[07:16] Guy
    Lads, your takoyaki!
[07:20] Hayate
    You know, after everything, your
    first book is still my favorite.
[07:24] Motoharu
    Really?
[07:25] Motoharu
    Then again, I can see why you'd like it.
[07:27] Hayate
    Yes!
[07:28] Hayate
    The marvelous interplay between the
    characters breeds such a peculiar atmosphere!
[07:32] Hayate
    What kind of books do you usually read?
[07:35] Motoharu
    I read all sorts of things.
[07:36] Motoharu
    Want to come over sometime?
[07:37] Hayate
    What?
[07:38] Motoharu
    It'd be easier if I just
    showed you my bookshelves.
[07:40] All
    Suddenly they're like best buds.
[07:43] All
    What happened?
[07:45] Motoharu
    I'm pretty decent at communicating.
[07:48] Motoharu
    For me, as someone whose job
    it is to write about people,
[07:48] Hayate
    Mima-san, Igarashi-sensei,
[07:50] Hayate
    thank you so much for treating
    us to all this food.
[07:51] Motoharu
    the moment when he revealed what
    was in his heart made me happy.
[07:53] Both
    Thank you so much!
[07:55] Mima
    Don't mention it.
[07:55] Motoharu
    I feel like I got another piece of why
    understanding people is so fun.
[07:56] Souma
    Today was fun!
[07:57] Souma
    One summer event checked off.
[07:59] Motoharu
    Going to a summer festival with friends
    is such a teenager thing to do.
[08:00] Motoharu
    A certain man was the impetus,
[08:02] Mima
    You're around 30, though.
[08:02] Motoharu
    and now here I am.
[08:03] Souma
    Next year, we should come back in yukata.
[08:05] Motoharu
    In the end, it seems like
    this was the right choice.
[08:06] Shun
    Sounds like effort.
[08:11] Motoharu
    All right, I have to go this way now.
[08:13] Hayate
    Oh, same for me.
[08:15] Motoharu
    I see.
[08:16] Souma
    Shun, are you going home,
    or back to the cafe?
[08:18] Shun
    I'm going home.
[08:19] Mima
    I'm going this way. See you next time.
[08:21] All
    See you next time!
[08:24] Motoharu
    So you're going this way, too.
[08:26] Motoharu
    I'll be turning at the next corner.
[08:27] Hayate
    Me too.
[08:29] Motoharu
    I guess we live close to each other.
[08:31] Hayate
    There's a lot of apartment
    buildings in this area.
[08:37] Both
    I wonder how long we'll
    keep walking together.
[08:45] Hayate
    This... this isn't what it looks like!
[08:47] Hayate
    I wasn't trying to scope out where you live!
[08:50] Hayate
    I'm a fan, but I would never stoop so low!
[08:53] Motoharu
    Don't worry. I never
    suspected you of anything.
[08:58] Motoharu
    Who would've thought we
    lived in the same building?
[09:00] Hayate
    That was unexpected.
[09:03] Motoharu
    I'm home often, so you're welcome
    to come over whenever you like.
[09:06] Hayate
    Huh?
[09:06] Voice
    First floor.
[09:07] Hayate
    No, I couldn't!
[09:08] Motoharu
    I have a cat.
[09:09] Hayate
    A cat?
[09:12] Motoharu
    That sounded like I'm
    luring you with the cat.
[09:14] Motoharu
    You don't have to come over alone, either.
[09:15] Motoharu
    You can call Takayuki or
    Souma or Shun over anytime.
[09:18] Motoharu
    You can come sit around in the library, too.
[09:23] Voice
    Please select a floor.
SIGN    Oh
[09:27] Motoharu
    Which floor are you on?
[09:28] Hayate
    The sixth.
SIGN    Summer Sky and Sea
SIGN    Coming up next
SIGN    We hope you'll tune in again!
SIGN    We hope you'll tune in again!
