[00:04] Kazuya     She can see you shining on the screen! [00:06] Kazuya     I'll get the funding, [00:08] Kazuya     so star in this! [00:10] Kazuya     Let's make a movie together! [00:13] Chizuru     Then, please... [00:16] Chizuru     Help me make my movie. [00:22] Chizuru     So Grandma can see it. [00:29] Kazuya     I'll do it! [00:32] Kazuya     I swear I'll see it through! [00:34] Kazuya     No matter what happens! [00:45] Chizuru     What kind of face was I making then? [00:52] Chizuru     Damn it, that idiot. [01:08] Chizuru     What have I gotten myself into? SIGN    Rent-a-Girlfriend SIGN    "Home Cooking and Girlfriend" [02:49] Teppei     I took a look at the page you created. SIGN    CAMPFIRE OPERATIONS SIGN    MUSIC MANAGER SIGN    POP CULTURE CURATOR & PLANNER [02:52] Teppei     And to be honest with you... [02:54] Teppei     I get the impression you think     crowdfunding is child's play. [02:58] Kazuya     I-I most certainly do not... [03:01] Teppei     First off, the top page has no images, [03:03] Teppei     and your text doesn't feel very professional. [03:06] Kazuya     The images are a work in progress... SIGN    Do you even     have this     actress's     permission? SIGN    Y-Yes,     I do! [03:08] Teppei     Listen, Kinoshita-san. [03:11] Teppei     In crowdfunding,     initial momentum is everything. [03:14] Teppei     The pitch and the rewards you outline     at the start are major factors. [03:19] Teppei     When you hear that 70% of     film-related projects reach their goal, [03:24] Teppei     that may make it sound easy... [03:27] Teppei     But each one is the result of the     planners working around the clock [03:31] Teppei     to turn a dream into reality. [03:33] Teppei     The success rate for people who don't     put in the blood, sweat, and tears [03:37] Teppei     is zero percent. [03:40] Teppei     We'll provide you with as     much support as we can, SIGN    This project hasn't launched yet. SIGN    Making a Movie Starring Actress Ichinose Chizuru (Upcoming) [03:43] Teppei     but we can't allow this project     to be launched in its current state. [03:48] Teppei     For example, let's say the     minimum pledge is 10,000 yen. [03:51] Teppei     Would you give 10,000 yen to an     actress you know nothing about? [03:56] Teppei     You should think long and hard about how     you'd feel if you were a prospective backer. [04:01] Kazuya     T... [04:02] Kazuya     Talk about laying the mental smackdown! [04:07] Chizuru     What?! [04:08] Chizuru     You couldn't get the project launched? [04:11] Kazuya     He said it's not likely to succeed as it stands. [04:14] Chizuru     I see. [04:16] Chizuru     Well, I'm sure he was saying it for our benefit. [04:20] Chizuru     We should follow his advice. [04:22] Kazuya     Y-Yeah. [04:25] Kazuya     Also, we need to talk about your name. [04:27] Chizuru     What about it? [04:28] Kazuya     Your stage name is "Ichinose,"     which might be kinda risky? [04:33] Kazuya     If anyone at college recognizes you, [04:35] Kazuya     it might make things difficult for you. [04:37] Chizuru     It's not like they'll find out     about my rental girlfriend job. [04:41] Chizuru     For everything else, my friends     will overlook it if I apologize. SIGN    Like, "Sorry I didn't tell you." [04:44] Chizuru     I was prepared for this the moment     I chose to use my real name in acting. [04:49] Chizuru     If I can act in a movie, I don't care     who talks behind my back at college. [04:54] Kazuya     Mizuhara... [04:56] Kazuya     Yeah, it's her dream, after all. [05:00] Kazuya     I really can't mess this up! [05:03] Chizuru     So, yeah, don't get too worked up about it. [05:07] Chizuru     Because I'm expecting a lot from you, [05:08] Chizuru     "Producer." [05:09] Kazuya     P-Pro...?! [05:11] Kazuya     Music to my ears!

SIGN    My manager wants     your contact info. [05:18] Kazuya     O-Oh, that's great. [05:20] Kazuya     Speaking of, I'd like a few photos     I can put on our top page. SIGN    S-Sure. [05:23] Chizuru     Got it. I'll let my manager know. [05:25] Kazuya     It's begun! [05:27] Kazuya     Our tag team is getting to work! [05:30] Mini     Pause right there. [05:33] Mini     Hey, you two. [05:34] Mini     I've been hearing you talking a lot lately. [05:36] Mini     If you need to talk so much,     could you do it in your rooms? [05:39] Kazuya     Th-The neighbor? [05:41] Mini     It's hard for me to focus on work like this. [05:44] Mini     Besides, if you're having clandestine     meetings on your balconies... [05:48] Mini     If you're gonna be that lovey-dovey,     why don't you two just start dating? SIGN    blush [05:53] Kazuya     Wh-Wha... [05:54] Kazuya     Who is this girl?

I can't see Mizuhara's face! [06:05] Mini     Anyway, I said my piece. [06:07] Mini     I don't want any neighbor trouble, you know? SIGN    Clack [06:12] Kazuya     A-Awkward! SIGN    Stiffen SIGN    She dropped a bomb before she ran off! SIGN    I can't look her in the eye now! [06:16] Kazuya     Wh-What was that all about, huh? [06:19] Kazuya     Me and you, a couple?

SIGN    The saddest     laugh [06:29] Kazuya     Huh? Mizu— [06:30] Chizuru     Well, we are bothering the neighbors. [06:33] Chizuru     We should probably lay off     the balcony meetings a little. [06:37] Kazuya     Wha?! SIGN    Clack SIGN    Mizuhara's so nice,     she even cares     about her neighbors [06:46] Kazuya     Just when we'd teamed up     to work on something! [06:50] Kazuya     What the heck was that, anyway? [06:52] Kazuya     She shows up out of nowhere and     randomly tells us to start dating? SIGN    I would     if I could!

SIGN    stagger stagger [07:15] Kazuya     Ugh, just thinking about it pisses me off! [07:18] Kazuya     I'm sorry about the noise, but... [07:20] Kazuya     What right does she have to     get between the two of us? SIGN    Movin' and Packin' [07:24] Kazuya     Oh, yeah, I did see a moving truck     outside a couple weeks ago. [07:28] Kazuya     Didn't seem like she knew about     the rental girlfriend thing... [07:32] Kazuya     But still, I really don't wanna     get involved with her. [07:35] Mini     Huh? For real? [07:37] Mini     That's so funny! [07:38] Minifriend     Right? [07:39] Kazuya     What?! She's right there! SIGN    Prisoner No. 202!! [07:46] Kazuya     But why? She goes to the same college?

[08:05] Mini     Nice to meetcha! [08:07] Kazuya     I-I'm Kazuya... [08:08] Kazuya     Huh, she's awfully friendly. [08:11] Kazuya     S-Sorry about last night.     I thought you'd be mad. [08:14] Mini     Oh, that was just me making my position clear. [08:17] Kazuya     Huh? Wh-What? [08:18] Mini     You gotta put your foot down when     dealing with an annoying neighbor. [08:22] Mini     I saw it on WeTube. [08:25] Kazuya     H-Huh... TIL. [08:27] Mini     But that attitude won't fly     with an upperclassman! [08:29] Mini     I'm terribly sorry for being so rude! SIGN    I'll be more respectful. [08:32] Kazuya     Huh? Oh, don't be... [08:33] Kazuya     She's surprisingly polite? [08:35] Minifriend     You know him, Mini? [08:36] Mini     Yeah. [08:38] Mini     He's my neighbor, and... [08:39] Kazuya     Oh, shit! [08:40] Kazuya     If she runs her mouth... SIGN    What's up with that? [08:42] (Flashback) Kibe     Kazu-chin! [08:43] (Flashback) Kibe     Why's everyone in college talking about you     and this hot chick having balcony dates? [08:47] Kazuya     Yaemori-san! [08:49] Kazuya     Can we chat over there for a bit? [08:50] Mini     Huh? [08:51] Minifriend     I'll go on ahead, then. [08:53] Mini     Oh, okay. [08:54] Mini     What do you wanna talk about? [09:04] Kuri     'Sup? [09:05] Kuri     Huh? Where's Kazuya? [09:07] Kibe     Skipping, I guess. [09:08] Kuri     He's been going straight home lately,     even on days he's not working. Something up? [09:12] Kibe     Yeah... He's glued to his PC 24/7 now,     even in the cafeteria during lunch. [09:17] Kibe     With this somber look. [09:18] Kuri     Sheesh. [09:19] Kuri     Did he forget the sagely advice of,     "Don't look at porn in public"? SIGN    Nagomi Sake [09:27] Mini     Keep it a secret? [09:29] Mini     Why? SIGN    The balcony thing? [09:31] Kazuya     Well... [09:32] Kazuya     No way I can tell her the truth! [09:34] Kazuya     A-Ahem. [09:36] Kazuya     Everyone's got a lot going on in life. SIGN    Be a     grown-up... [09:39] Kazuya     Meddling in people's relationships     when you don't know jack isn't nice. [09:43] Mini     Oh! SIGN    She is     real pretty,     after all! [09:44] Mini     So you do have a thing for her! [09:47] Kazuya     Who knows? I couldn't say! SIGN    Being a     grown-up [09:51] Mini     Fair. [09:52] Mini     I'd be hurt if someone joked about     my special relationships, too. [09:56] Mini     I'm sorry. [09:58] Kazuya     I'm not sure we're talking about     the same thing here, [10:01] Kazuya     but she gets it now, I guess? [10:03] Mini     I have someone really important to me, too. [10:05] Kazuya     Oh, you do? Boyfriend? [10:08] Mini     Blowing in like the easterly winds,     Iwate's very own diva, SIGN    Niikaze Mei [10:10] Mini     Niikaze Mei from Billion Live! SIGN    2D (that) SIGN    3D (this) [10:15] Kazuya     This and that are two very different things... [10:17] Mini     I go hard for each of my faves! [10:19] Mini     I was stanning hard for     Hisamatsu Nozomi until recently, [10:22] Mini     but then I changed my mind... [10:24] Mini     I go hard each time, though! [10:27] Kazuya     First time I meet her,     she tells us to start dating, [10:30] Kazuya     and now she's talking about her waifus... SIGN    They're     seasonal,     too... [10:32] Kazuya     She's so casual about it all. [10:33] Mini     Love can be painful,     but it's got all these feels! [10:35] Kazuya     So this is a zoomer... SIGN    To her, love is     like starting a     free trial with     a streaming service [10:36] Mini     I watch dating reality shows as research! SIGN    We're only two     years apart,     but I feel     such a     generation gap [10:39] Mini     Don't worry. I'm not a tattletale. [10:43] Kazuya     But, hey, she doesn't seem like a bad girl. SIGN    I won't get in your way!     Even if it kills me! [10:48] Kazuya     I'm worried about her... SIGN    Heaps of problems! [10:50] Kazuya     But I gotta think about this first! [10:52] Kazuya     How do I write text that appeals to the heart? [10:55] Kazuya     Sure, asking someone to pledge     10,000 yen to a stranger is a tall order. [11:00] Kazuya     Well, if we're talking about making a     beauty like Mizuhara's dream come true, SIGN    I'd gladly     put down 10K [11:04] Kazuya     I know I would do whatever I could. SIGN    Any sense of     objectivity is long gone [11:07] Kazuya     Looking at other project pages, [11:08] Kazuya     people talk about their dreams,     and what led them to crowdfunding... [11:12] Kazuya     Which brings us to... [11:14] Kazuya     Talking about her grandma. [11:17] Kazuya     But I can't do that without Mizuhara's     permission, and I have no way to ask her. [11:24] Kazuya     It's hard to call her out     to the balcony now, too... [11:29] Kazuya     Oh, come on! [11:30] Kazuya     Who is it this late at night? SIGN    now SIGN    Ichinose Chizuru     Can I come over now? [11:35] Kazuya     Huh? SIGN    The future is now. SIGN    Just now SIGN    Ichinose Chizuru     Can I come over now?

Over where? SIGN    If she's sent me     a message on LIVE,     she can't be outside     right now, at least... [11:51] Kazuya     My place, right? My place!

SIGN    Taking care     of drunkard [12:21] Kazuya     This time, she's coming over of her own will! [12:24] Chizuru     I have my reasons,     but mostly I just wanted to see you. SIGN    Yeah, no,     not happening [12:28] Kazuya     Yikes, I didn't reply to her! [12:31] Kazuya     Would an emoji be too casual and weird? SIGN    Tremble Tremble SIGN    Would an emoji     be too casual     and weird?! SIGN    But not using     one would     seem so curt! [12:34] Kazuya     But not using one would seem so curt! SIGN    Sure! SIGN    Read SIGN    We     have     a     connection!! [12:46] Kazuya     Sigh... I can't take it. [12:49] Kazuya     I love her. [12:51] Kazuya     Wait, now's not the time!

[13:32] Kazuya     I just didn't have time... [13:36] Chizuru     Sorry to show up so late. [13:38] Chizuru     I wanted to talk earlier,     but I was busy all afternoon. [13:42] Chizuru     Am I being a bother? [13:44] Kazuya     N-Not at all! SIGN    Will she or     won't she sit [13:50] Kazuya     Oof... I have no idea how to deal with her! [13:55] Chizuru     Don't get the wrong idea! [13:58] Chizuru     I'm not here to get lovey-dovey with you! [14:01] Chizuru     I'm just here 'cause you say     you'll make a movie for me, [14:04] Chizuru     and I'd feel bad doing nothing! [14:07] Kazuya     I get it, I get it! [14:09] Kazuya     Calm down! [14:10] Mini     If you're gonna be that lovey-dovey,     why don't you two just start dating? [14:11] Kazuya     Oh, she's talking about that. SIGN    Forgot about it     due to Mizuhara's visit [14:14] Chizuru     We hadn't finished talking about     the crowdfunding project, either, [14:17] Chizuru     and I thought we'd better     make some progress, and soon. [14:20] Chizuru     And that girl's got a point, too.     Talking on the balcony would be a nuisance, [14:26] Chizuru     and we can't very well spend money at     a diner when we're trying to raise funds. [14:32] Chizuru     Let's begin our meeting, shall we? [14:36] Kazuya     Mizuhara... [14:38] Kazuya     Yeah, what was I thinking? [14:41] Kazuya     Being in my apartment all alone with me...     It's a sign of her trust above all else! [14:46] (Flashback) Sayuri     Please be there for Chizuru. [14:50] Kazuya     I can't let them down... [14:52] Kazuya     I can't let either of them down! [14:55] Kazuya     First, for the funding goal... [14:57] Kazuya     I'm thinking we should drop     it to 1.82 million yen. [15:00] Chizuru     1.82 million? Is that enough? SIGN    To make a movie? [15:04] Kazuya     I did some research, and... [15:06] Kazuya     Realistically, we should aim for a     movie length of 60 to 90 minutes. [15:13] Kazuya     Assuming we shoot for a week, [15:16] Kazuya     renting cameras, mics, and lighting     equipment will cost 350,000 yen. [15:21] Kazuya     A van to transport it all will cost     40,000 yen a day, times seven for... [15:25] Kazuya     280,000 for a week. [15:27] Kazuya     With other miscellaneous costs,     it adds up to 780,000 yen. [15:31] Kazuya     Dunno where we'll get a screenplay,     but I'm budgeting 150,000 yen for it. [15:34] Kazuya     A guy in our college's film club says     he'll write the script for 100,000 yen. [15:38] Kazuya     Pay for the actors will be around 420,000 yen. [15:42] Kazuya     Even if we take a spontaneous     approach to filming, [15:44] Kazuya     I think we'll have to spend at least     50,000 yen for location fees. [15:48] Kazuya     And if we hire additional staff,     that's 170,000 yen. [15:51] Kazuya     Renting editing equipment and hiring     someone for it will take 100,000 yen. [15:55] Kazuya     Add 50,000 yen for location scouting     and any unforeseen issues... [15:59] Kazuya     And I think 1.82 million in total     will give us enough to work with. [16:03] (Flashback) Katsuhito     If you wish for it... [16:06] (Flashback) Katsuhito     your dream... will... [16:12] (Flashback) Katsuhito     come true... [16:16] Kazuya     And in these docs... SIGN    Flinch [16:19] Kazuya     Uh, Mizuhara? Something wrong? [16:22] Chizuru     No, nothing. [16:26] Kazuya     If you say so. [16:28] Kazuya     Anyway, look at this. [16:38] Kazuya     That's more or less what the     1.82 million will be used on. [16:40] Chizuru     I see. That explains the figure. [16:44] Kazuya     I'd like to cut more costs if we could... [16:47] Chizuru     Well, we don't want it to be too amateurish,     so I think it's a fair budget. [16:49] Kazuya     Ugh, I can't! [16:52] Kazuya     I can't focus at all! SIGN    Please tell me     she can't hear     my beating heart...!? [16:55] Kazuya     I'm starting to hate myself even more! [16:58] Kazuya     She's here for a proper meeting,     and look at me... [17:02] Kazuya     But... SIGN    Modest     yet womanly     long skirt [17:04] Kazuya     Any guy would be the same! SIGN    Casual white tee     that emphasizes     her figure [17:06] Kazuya     I've fantasized about this so many times! SIGN    Girls who look good     in a quick ponytail     are the real deal [17:08] Kazuya     This whole situation, being alone     with Mizuhara in my apartment! SIGN    Natural makeup?     Or none [17:14] Kazuya     Wait, why? Why did you just look at my fish? [17:16] Kazuya     Do you have an interest in fish?     You wanna talk about them? SIGN    You     don't,     right!? [17:19] Kazuya     Why do I feel so, like, naked in front of her? SIGN    My heart won't stop pounding!! SIGN    With my private parts exposed! [17:22] Kazuya     I can't stop thinking about her movement! [17:25] Chizuru     Huh... [17:26] Chizuru     So this is where you set up the tiers? [17:29] Kazuya     Gah! I just can't! [17:32] Kazuya     We stick closer on our rental dates, SIGN    Were they always so big!? [17:35] Kazuya     but in this private space,     I keep focusing on them! SIGN    W     a     f     t [17:39] Kazuya     Her clothes smell of detergent for a change... [17:42] Kazuya     And she's only got lip cream on... [17:43] Chizuru     This all seems like a lot of work. SIGN    A cute voice,     almost like Amamiya Sora's [17:45] Kazuya     She's stimulating all five of my senses! SIGN    Does she even realize it!? [17:48] Kazuya     She's a WMD! [17:50] Kazuya     A Weapon of Male Destruction! [17:53] Kazuya     This isn't a meeting! It's a date!

[09:25] Mini     First off, the project page Master designed. [09:28] Mini     It's really well made. [09:31] Mini     It's clear that you and your agent     worked hard revising it. [09:34] Kazuya     Th-Thanks. [09:35] Mini     But there's a serious lack of progress     reports and updates after launch. [09:40] Mini     To be honest, Master, this is on you. SIGN    Page Views [09:43] Mini     You got carried away after the first wave. [09:45] Mini     It shows in the analytics—     your daily viewcounts, [09:49] Mini     and the backer cancellation graphs. [09:52] Kazuya     This girl's amazing. [09:53] Mini     The other issue is your rewards. [09:55] Chizuru     The rewards? SIGN    500 yen SIGN    Select this reward tier SIGN    Have your name listed on the movie's planned website.

SIGN    Backers: 18 Delivery: Upon completion [10:00] Mini     names in the credits, and thank-you     messages. All very nice and classy. [10:05] Mini     But... [10:06] Mini     Being classy counts for nothing     if you don't get your funding. [10:09] Mini     This campaign is all or nothing. [10:13] Mini     If you're so much as a single     yen below your goal, [10:16] Mini     you won't get a single yen from it. [10:18] Mini     We can't be concerned with appearances here. [10:21] Mini     We need to add more tiers and     offer other rewards to backers. [10:24] Chizuru     Such as? [10:25] Mini     Personal possessions of Mizuhara-san's. [10:27] Kazuya     P-Personal?! [10:29] Mini     Like clothing and shoes     she wears in the movie, [10:32] Mini     signed copies of the script, and other     everyday stuff she could do without. SIGN    Flea market style [10:35] Kazuya     Whoa... [10:35] Mini     A lot of film-related projects do this stuff. [10:37] Kazuya     Whoa, whoa! [10:37] Mini     And, I mean, Mizuhara-san's     a beautiful woman. [10:39] Mini     A lot of the backers will be fans of     Ichinose Chizuru the actress. SIGN    She's our poster girl [10:43] Mini     I think we can expect some of them     to double- or triple-dip. [10:45] Kazuya     H-Her personal stuff... SIGN    Give ME those [10:47] Chizuru     I guess I don't need this anymore. SIGN    It's not gonna be     freshly worn, come on [10:49] Kazuya     B-But that's going too— [10:51] Chizuru     All right. [10:52] Chizuru     I'll see what I can offer. [10:55] Mini     Wow. Respect. [10:57] Mini     Lastly, grassroots promotion     is super important, too. SIGN    Personalized for you SIGN    Staff Recommendations [11:01] Mini     Getting on the site's recommended     page will have a huge effect. [11:06] Mini     Mizuhara-san, I bet you know a lot of actors, [11:09] Mini     so ask them to spread     the word on social media. [11:12] Mini     We should also start passing out fliers     around train stations as soon as tomorrow. [11:16] Chizuru     Fliers... [11:18] Mini     That's all for our strategy! [11:20] Mini     I'll write a progress update post     and put it up on the project page. [11:24] Mini     Master, you convince the agent rep to have     our project listed in the recommendations. [11:28] Mini     Mizuhara-san, you look for belongings you can     give away, and get help from your friends. [11:32] Mini     Girlfriend, I'd like you to design     the fliers we'll pass out. [11:36] Mini     We all need to spread the word to our friends [11:39] Mini     and pass out fliers when we're free. [11:41] Mini     We don't have a single moment to     waste if we want to hit our goal. [11:44] Mini     This is the time for us to come together     so we can get this movie made! [11:48] Kazuya     Talk about convincing... [11:55] Ruka     I don't like being ordered     around by "just a neighbor," [11:58] Ruka     but I've already decided that     I'll do anything for Kazuya-kun. [12:03] Mini     And Mizuhara-san? [12:05] Chizuru     Of course I'm in. I appreciate this. [12:08] Mini     Everyone... [12:09] Mini     I trust we're all in agreement.

[14:17] Kazuya     It's kinda strange, actually. [14:20] Kazuya     Whenever I've had enough     and fall down on my ass, [14:22] Kazuya     I can feel her pulling me back up to my feet. [14:26] Kazuya     Like, if it's for Mizuhara, [14:28] Kazuya     I feel like I can try as many times as it takes. [14:34] Kazuya     Wait, that was totally cringe! [14:36] Kazuya     What am I, some kind of fanboy? [14:39] Kazuya     Anyway, say hi to your dad for me!     See you around! [14:42] Kazuya     Please take one! [14:44] Kazuya     Please!

SIGN    Nothing like     Master's room [15:57] Mini     It totally feels like the main     heroine's apartment. SIGN    I think they did some     renovations     before I moved in [16:00] Chizuru     What do you mean, main heroine? SIGN    It even smells nice [16:02] Mini     Oh, just video game stuff. [16:04] Chizuru     I did some poking around myself, [16:07] Chizuru     and I found some old accessories and T-shirts. [16:09] Chizuru     And books I'm done reading. [16:11] Mini     Ooh, that's awesome! [16:14] Chizuru     This is the kind of thing     you're looking for, right? [16:16] Mini     Yeah, but this isn't anywhere near enough.

SIGN    Even if we make each one     just a few thousand yen [16:31] Chizuru     But the rewards need to have     some value, at least... [16:36] Mini     Huh? [16:37] Mini     There's nothing in this apartment     that isn't valuable. [16:41] Mini     Take, for example, this hair tie. [16:42] Chizuru     Huh? Where did you get that?! [16:44] Mini     Found it when I used your restroom earlier. [16:47] Chizuru     Don't randomly dig through my things! [16:48] Mini     Relax. There wasn't anything dirty in there. [16:51] Chizuru     That's not the point! [16:52] Mini     Would've been nice if there was, though. [16:54] Chizuru     Why would that be nice?! [16:56] Chizuru     It's just something I bought     at the 100-yen shop, anyway. [16:59] Mini     But now that it's touched     your skin, it's priceless. [17:03] Chizuru     M-My skin? Come on. [17:04] Mini     It's in stores for 100 yen, [17:06] Mini     but just the fact that it was in     your home makes it a fine reward. SIGN    The dream [17:09] Mini     Isn't the modern world great? [17:11] Mini     Anyway, add one more to the list. SIGN    Gonna eat it,     rawr [17:17] Mini     And now... [17:18] Mini     It's time for the main event! SIGN    Packed with clothes!! [17:23] Mini     Of course a rental GF     would have a crazy wardrobe! SIGN    So fashionable [17:26] Chizuru     I basically chose this place for its closet.

[18:42] Chizuru     I will if you'll stop opening that! [18:44] Chizuru     There's no way we're     making rewards out of those! [18:47] Mini     Might work if we slice 'em up with scissors.

[19:06] Chizuru     Anyway, what next? [19:08] Mini     Clean up and I'll take some pics. SIGN    Gonna upload 'em [19:15] Chizuru     Maybe I only need one of these mugs. SIGN    I bought a     set of two [19:19] Mini     Mizuhara-san, do you have     a boyfriend or anything? [19:23] Chizuru     Where did that come from? [19:24] Mini     Just wondering. [19:26] Chizuru     Does it look like I do? [19:28] Chizuru     I'm busy right now. [19:30] Chizuru     I get enough dates from my work. [19:32] Mini     What a thing to say. [19:34] Mini     I got confirmation, Master! [19:36] Mini     What do you think Master's doing right now? [19:39] Chizuru     Out talking with the crowdfunding site, right? SIGN    To put us     in the recommendations [19:42] Chizuru     Weren't you the one who told him to go? [19:43] Mini     Oh, right, I was. [19:50] Mini     How about him for a boyfriend? [19:54] Chizuru     Huh? [19:55] Mini     I mean, look at everything he's doing for you. [19:59] Mini     You met as rental GF and client, and share     the same apartment building and college? [20:03] Mini     Any girly girl would feel the     hand of fate at play here. [20:06] Mini     He's pretty average-looking, though. SIGN    Kinda mean? [20:10] Chizuru     Well... [20:12] Chizuru     I think he's a nice person. [20:15] Chizuru     At first, he was so unreliable,     but I think he's kind [20:19] Chizuru     and an honest, straightforward guy. [20:22] Chizuru     I'm grateful for his help with the movie, too. [20:25] Chizuru     But he's doing it for me the actress. [20:28] Chizuru     It's not a romantic thing. [20:31] Chizuru     Love is something else entirely, you know? [20:36] Chizuru     That should be enough cleaning. [20:38] Chizuru     If we're taking pictures,     we should do it somewhere bright. [20:40] Mini     ...you. [20:42] Mini     He likes you. [20:43] Mini     Master likes you, Mizuhara-san. [20:47] Chizuru     What? [20:48] Chizuru     Well, I mean, I guess he may like me as a person. [20:52] Mini     That's not it! [20:53] Mini     He's in love with you! [20:58] Chizuru     No chance of that. [21:01] Chizuru     I once asked him if he'd     fallen in love with me, [21:04] Chizuru     because that would change things entirely. [21:07] Chizuru     And he said clearly that he hadn't. [21:10] Mini     Things have changed since then! [21:13] Mini     Besides, did you really expect him     to tell the truth to your face?! [21:17] Chizuru     E-Even then... [21:18] Chizuru     Our relationship is just a pact.     And this is an extension of that pact. [21:22] Chizuru     In the first place... [21:23] Chizuru     he's not stupid enough to get     serious about a rental girlfriend. [21:30] Mini     Do you really believe that, Mizuhara-san? [21:34] Mini     Do you really think people can     draw lines in the sand like that? [21:37] Mini     Pay money to go on dates,     say goodbye, and that's that? [21:40] Mini     Do you really think everyone     accepts that as it is?! [21:44] Mini     Do you believe none of them     would like to be your real boyfriend?! [21:48] Mini     It's not that simple! [21:51] Mini     Getting to date a beautiful girl     like you, even for a few hours, [21:56] Mini     would make anyone wish     you were their real girlfriend! [22:00] Mini     That's just human! [22:02] Mini     It's not the least bit stupid! [22:04] Mini     Among your clients may be someone     who could make you happy for life! [22:11] (Flashback) Chizuru     Have you...

[02:20] Mini     And that this is for your grandmother. [02:22] Mini     But that isn't enough motivation     for anyone to do all he's doing.

[03:24] Umi     Gotcha. I'll spread the word. [03:27] Chizuru     You'd do that? Thank you. [03:30] Umi     But that's great.

[03:49] Umi     Anyway, I get the idea. [03:51] Umi     Would you like me to post about it on the     final day? Might be most effective then. [03:55] Chizuru     I'll leave it up to you. [03:57] Umi     With that said... [03:58] Umi     There's something I'd like from you in return. [04:01] Chizuru     Huh? [04:02] Kazuya     Man...

[07:18] Kazuya     I would prefer not to turn to him, but... [07:22] Kazuya     This is honestly a godsend. [07:24] Kazuya     That aside... [07:25] Kazuya     She's not mad?

[07:30] Mini     We can get through the     crowdfunding stage with this! [07:30] Kazuya     Did I just imagine her avoiding me last night? [07:35] Kazuya     Something wrong? [07:37] Chizuru     Oh, no. [07:39] Chizuru     It's no big deal. [07:40] Mini     We should share all our concerns,     no matter how minor. [07:44] Chizuru     Nah, this is a personal thing.

[08:16] Chizuru     The person he was planning     to go with can't make it. [08:21] Chizuru     It's a popular troupe,     so getting tickets is hard. [08:23] Chizuru     And we could learn a thing or     two about acting from them. [08:27] Chizuru     But we decided we'd all     hand out flyers that day. [08:30] Chizuru     So I very much want to     turn him down, of course, [08:33] Chizuru     but it would be awkward after     asking him to retweet our campaign. [08:36] Chizuru     I just said I'd think about it. [08:41] Kazuya     Is this, like, in exchange for the retweet? [08:44] Chizuru     Huh? Don't be stupid. [08:47] Chizuru     Umi-kun has a girlfriend, anyway. [08:49] Kazuya     He does? [08:51] Kazuya     So he's not asking her out on a date?

[09:38] Mini     Turning him down when we're having him     retweet our campaign would make it awkward. [09:41] Mini     The three of us can handle flyer duty. [09:44] Mini     And if it makes you a better     actress, nothing like it! SIGN    Ah. SIGN    Grab SIGN    A headlock!? [09:49] Kazuya     Sorry, give us a sec.

SIGN    We gotta     capitalize on that [10:03] Mini     He's an actor, so his followers     are likely to be film buffs. [10:06] Mini     It'll be super effective!

[12:54] Umi     You always get so into it, all red-faced. [12:54] Chizuru     That gave me a start. [12:57] Umi     Anyway, it's amazing that     you're starring in a movie. [13:00] Chizuru     It's an amateur film, though. [13:02] Umi     A film's a film. [13:04] Umi     And you went the crowdfunding route, too. [13:07] Umi     I didn't get those vibes from him     when we met that Christmas. [13:10] Umi     He must be really taken by     Ichinose Chizuru the actress. [13:14] Umi     What's he like? [13:16] Chizuru     What is he like? [13:18] Chizuru     He's a strange one, that much is for sure. [13:21] Chizuru     Like, I get that we got     to know each other, but... [13:22] Chizuru     People normally don't make movies with     schoolmates who happen to be aspiring actors. [13:30] Chizuru     He talks a big game, but immediately     messes up and starts panicking. [13:34] Chizuru     He knows nothing about film production,     but is so confident he can make one. [13:39] Chizuru     But... [13:41] Chizuru     He taught me the value of having people     around who can tell you, "It's possible." [13:45] Chizuru     That's the kind of guy he is. [13:51] Umi     You okay? [13:53] Chizuru     Yeah, thanks. [13:55] Umi     You seem super fragile, so be careful. [14:01] Ruka     Okay, yeah.

[15:33] Chizuru     I have no words! [15:35] Chizuru     That was the best! [15:37] Umi     You even got to talk to them.     I'm happy for you. [15:39] Chizuru     You made it all happen! [15:41] Chizuru     Did you see what they did     with that turning point in Act 3?! [15:44] Chizuru     Their acting amped things up just     before the fall back down to earth. SIGN    That was great direction! [15:48] Chizuru     Hoya-san had such a good     expression on until then! [15:51] Chizuru     I knew comedy would be a great fit!

[16:03] Umi     Yeah, I love it. [16:06] Umi     You're normally such a focused and     feet-planted-firmly-on-the-ground hard worker, [16:11] Umi     but after you see a play,     you turn into this girl brimming with joy.

Nanaho's dial is always turned to 11. [16:26] Chizuru     There are plenty of good things about her. [16:30] Chizuru     It's too bad about today. [16:32] Chizuru     You wanted to come with her, didn't you? [16:35] Chizuru     Sucks that she had to get sick. [16:37] Chizuru     Are you going to go visit her now? [16:40] Umi     I lied about her getting sick. [16:44] Umi     I broke up with her. [16:50] Chizuru     R-Really? When? [16:54] Umi     A week or so ago. [16:56] Umi     That's why she couldn't make it today. [17:00] Umi     I lied because I couldn't     bring myself to tell you that. [17:04] Chizuru     Oh... That's too bad. [17:07] Umi     Actually, it might've been a good thing. [17:10] Umi     Looking at you watch the play     with your eyes all sparkling, [17:13] Umi     made me glad I brought you with me instead.

[19:11] (Flashback) Chizuru     Er... What is this about, Umi-kun? [19:15] (Flashback) Umi     It was part of today's plans.     I made reservations. [19:18] (Flashback) Umi     It's a pretty great place,     and it's not easy to book a table. [19:21] (Flashback) Umi     So it'd be a waste to just cancel. [19:24] (Flashback) Chizuru     But I have somewhere to be... [19:26] (Flashback) Umi     It's members-only or something, apparently. [19:30] (Flashback) Umi     I hear the spare rib and     wine there are to die for. [19:33] (Flashback) Umi     Some pretty big names in     the acting world are regulars. [19:36] (Flashback) Umi     I'd love to hear more of your     thoughts about the play there. [19:42] (Flashback) Chizuru     I'm... really sorry.

[17:37] Chizuru     Everyone needs time to stop     and sort out their feelings. [17:40] Chizuru     Your trial period seems to be going great, [17:43] Chizuru     and Granny Nagomi has     taken a liking to her, right? [17:47] Kazuya     I prefer you, though. [17:51] Kazuya     Yeah, she's a great girl. [17:53] Kazuya     Just the fact that she says she likes     a guy like me makes her an angel. [17:58] Kazuya     She even helped out with the movie. [18:02] Kazuya     But I've decided not to lie to my folks anymore. [18:07] Kazuya     The next "girlfriend" I introduce to them [18:08] Kazuya     will be one I love from the bottom of my heart. [18:13] Chizuru     What about Mami-san? [18:16] Kazuya     Honestly, I don't know myself.     I haven't even heard from her in ages. [18:22] Kazuya     Given how pretty she is, she's probably     gotten herself another guy already. [18:27] Kazuya     And I do want her to be happy, so... [18:32] Chizuru     This won't be easy, huh? [18:34] Kazuya     Nope. SIGN    My apologies [18:36] Kazuya     She's been worried about me, huh? [18:40] Kazuya     Not like she didn't have her hands     full with her acting stuff already.

[18:50] Kazuya     I won't be seeing Mizuhara     as frequently anymore. [18:53] Kazuya     It's sad... but this was lots of fun.

[10:23] (Flashback) Ruka     You two think you can just come home     the morning after and call it good?! [10:27] Kazuya     She must really be feeling     the pressure due to Mizuhara. [10:32] Kazuya     Hey, uh, I'm sorry. [10:34] Kazuya     I know we started dating as a trial, [10:36] Kazuya     but I was the one who brought     it all on by lying to people. [10:39] Kazuya     And it was obvious what happened the other     day would trample all over your feelings. [10:45] Kazuya     On top of that, I made you try so hard today. [10:48] Kazuya     When, really, you don't have to go     out of your way for a guy like me. [10:55] Kazuya     Ow! Huh? [10:56] Ruka     I don't see it as going out of my way. [11:00] Ruka     Don't get all condescending on me. [11:02] Ruka     True, I don't completely     trust you and Chizuru-san, [11:06] Ruka     and watching you two does make me worry, [11:09] Ruka     but today's not about that. [11:12] Kazuya     Then why? [11:15] Ruka     It was my dream. Is that not enough? [11:19] Ruka     I'm a girly girl at heart. I do want     the princess treatment on my birthday. [11:25] Ruka     And you're the one for me. [11:28] Ruka     The one and only,     who I've waited to meet all my life. [11:31] Ruka     So what if I think of my first boyfriend     as a prince who'll grant me my wishes? [11:37] Ruka     Is that weird? [11:40] Kazuya     No, it's not. [11:41] Ruka     Right? [11:44] Kazuya     Damn, she's a total angel. [11:47] Kazuya     And I'm a real asshole. [11:49] Kazuya     What she's asking for is nothing out     of the ordinary for a birthday girl, [11:54] Kazuya     and yet I got all conceited,     trying to read between the lines. [11:57] Kazuya     I've been leading this extremely     nice girl on for so long... [12:01] Kazuya     I still feel bad, though. [12:04] Kazuya     I dragged you into the movie project, too... [12:11] Ruka     Kazuya-kun, do you like the     Yamanote Line or the Chuo Line more? [12:16] Kazuya     Huh? [12:17] Kazuya     Wait, what? What is she talking about? SIGN    Chuo Line SIGN    Yamanote Line [12:20] Kazuya     Has she suddenly lost her mind? [12:22] Kazuya     The Chuo Line, I guess? [12:23] Ruka     Is that so... [12:25] Kazuya     That's it?! [12:26] Kazuya     Did I give the wrong answer? [12:28] Ruka     This one time, I wanted to     spend longer on the train, [12:32] Ruka     so I took the Yamanote Line on purpose. [12:35] Ruka     Shinjuku to Tokyo only takes     15 minutes on the Chuo Line, [12:39] Ruka     but I rode the Yamanote Line     for 35 minutes instead. [12:43] Kazuya     Ruka-chan... [12:44] Ruka     I really thought I was doing     something pointless... [12:48] Ruka     Temporarily, at least. [12:54] Ruka     Nishi-Nippori. [12:56] Ruka     In spring, the riverbank to the south there     is full of blooming sakura trees. [13:01] Ruka     I fell in love with Nishi-Nippori right then. [13:05] Ruka     Ever since, I've been taking the Yamanote     Line the long way around in spring. [13:09] Kazuya     Ruka-chan... [13:10] Ruka     It may seem pointless at first, [13:12] Ruka     but taking a detour can bring you     wonderful new encounters and experiences. [13:17] Ruka     I felt the same way about the movie, too. [13:20] Ruka     "Why am I even doing this," I thought. [13:22] Ruka     I did sympathize with     Chizuru-san and her grandma, [13:26] Ruka     but my main motive was to     not leave the two of you alone. [13:30] Ruka     But then, the filming started. [13:31] Ruka     I saw the staff, [13:33] Ruka     you, [13:34] Ruka     and Chizuru-san all working so hard... [13:38] Ruka     And it made my heart race, too. [13:43] Ruka     So please don't apologize. [13:46] Ruka     I, Sarashina Ruka,     had an amazing time helping out! [13:50] Kazuya     Ruka-chan! [13:52] Ruka     Let's go. Your pants are gonna get dirty. [13:56] Kazuya     So in the end, Ruka-chan wasn't trying     to compete with Mizuhara today, [14:01] Kazuya     and she did have fun shooting the movie. [14:04] Kazuya     She must be a more pure-hearted     girl than I ever thought. [14:09] Kazuya     Who could've ever imagined that     my life would come to this? SIGN    This girl is my girlfriend?     I don't deserve her. [14:20] Ruka     Hey, can we hold hands? [14:22] Kazuya     Y-Yeah, sure. [14:28] Kazuya     This is bad! [14:29] Kazuya     After seeing her act so cute earlier,     my imagination is gonna go berserk! [14:34] Kazuya     Ruka-chan's being so sweet today. [14:37] Kazuya     She's not her usual wild self, just your     everyday girl who happens to be super pretty! [14:42] Kazuya     I really want to hold her tight! [14:45] Guy     Here. For our first anniversary. [14:47] Girl     Really? Thank you! [14:53] Kazuya     Huh? What's wrong, Ruka-chan? [14:56] Ruka     On second thought,     I really do want a gift, too. [14:59] Kazuya     R-Right? I get it! I'm so sorry! [15:02] Kazuya     But I didn't get you anything. [15:04] Kazuya     I sound like a huge jerk, even to myself. [15:06] Ruka     I'm not asking for anything material.     Just permission. [15:10] Kazuya     P-Permission? Does that mean what I think... [15:13] Ruka     You never bring it up, so I... [15:17] Kazuya     Wait, timeout! [15:18] Kazuya     Wait! [15:18] Ruka     I've been holding back forever. [15:20] Kazuya     If she comes at me now, I can't refuse! SIGN    Holding back?     Sounds lewd! [15:24] Ruka     Kazuya-kun... [15:25] Ruka     May I call you "Kazuya" from now on? [15:30] Kazuya     Huh? SIGN    We're not talking     about kissing?

[15:56] Kazuya     Y-Yeah, no point overthinking     what we call each other. [16:03] Ruka     Kazuya! [16:04] Kazuya     Y-Yeah. [16:08] Ruka     Kazuya! [16:09] Kazuya     Wh-What is it? [16:12] Ruka     Kazuya! [16:18] Kazuya     It's late, so I'll walk you home. [16:20] Ruka     Thanks, Kazuya. [16:22] Kazuya     Did you always use my name so frequently? [16:24] Ruka     What do you mean, Kazuya? [16:26] Kazuya     Oh, well, no biggie. [16:28] Ruka     Don't worry about it, Kazuya! [16:30] Ruka     Now I've taken the lead over Chizuru-san!

[16:49] Sayuri     Wow, new hospital pajamas! [16:52] Chizuru     Apparently, lavender is the lucky     color for 77-year-olds right now. [16:56] Sayuri     You have such great fashion taste.     I really appreciate it. SIGN    Smells     great [17:00] Sayuri     That's my dear granddaughter. [17:02] Chizuru     It's part of the job. [17:04] Chizuru     Should you be up right now? [17:06] Chizuru     You seemed to be in so much pain last weekend. [17:08] Sayuri     Don't dig up the distant past. [17:11] Chizuru     Um, it was three days ago? [17:13] Sayuri     That's the distant past. [17:15] Chizuru     I hope I can be like you when I'm 77. [17:19] Chizuru     The skies really cleared up, huh? [17:21] Chizuru     The forecast said there was     a 70% chance of rain. [17:24] Sayuri     I'm blessed by the weather gods, you see. [17:26] Chizuru     This again? [17:28] Sayuri     Don't shoot the messenger.     The facts are the facts. [17:30] Sayuri     It was pouring the day you were born, too. [17:33] Sayuri     The thunder was just roaring!     And the lightning! [17:35] Sayuri     But it all stopped when I reached the hospital! [17:38] Chizuru     Stop talking about that. It's depressing. SIGN    Birthday downpour [17:40] Sayuri     It's tough being an actress loved by the rain. [17:44] Chizuru     I'll become one who looks great in the rain. [17:46] Sayuri     The rain gods loved Kasumi, too. [17:48] Sayuri     It rained on all her important days—entrance     exams, coming-of-age ceremony, wedding. [17:53] Sayuri     Katsuhito-san would have to drive her,     and she'd look up at the sky and frown. [17:58] Sayuri     She was like you in a lot of ways:     pretty, considerate, and fashionable. [18:05] Sayuri     But she put me, her own mother,     through the pain of having to see her funeral. [18:13] Chizuru     Rest assured, I'll live longer than you. [18:17] Sayuri     Oh, you're talking impossible dreams now? [18:20] Sayuri     Whose influence is it? SIGN    Always with the comebacks... [18:23] Chizuru     Right back at you. [18:24] Chizuru     Get some rest. [18:33] Chizuru     S-Sumi-chan?! [18:37] Chizuru     What? You helped hand out flyers?! [18:40] Chizuru     And you saw me walk into the hospital     and decided to visit my grandma? SIGN    That's so like you. [18:45] Chizuru     He never mentioned this to me! SIGN    We've caused so much trouble     to so many people... SIGN    I saw that the crowdfunding project hit     its goal. How's the movie coming along? SIGN    I've been wondering [18:51] Chizuru     Oh, good. Shooting wrapped up the other day. [18:55] Chizuru     We also have a date for the screening. [18:57] Chizuru     It's being edited now. [19:01] Chizuru     Yeah. Thanks, Sumi-chan. [19:07] Chizuru     Oh, we're doing this again? Yeah, thanks. SIGN    Kazuya-kun     was giving it his all. SIGN    He wanted so badly     to do something to help you     and your grandmother. SIGN    Even after starting the crowdfunding     project, he got so close to     giving up so many times... SIGN    But he got back     on his feet each time,     all for you. SIGN    You two couldn't have done this without each other. SIGN    Without your desire SIGN    and his support. SIGN    You did this together! [19:33] Sumi     Congrats! [19:36] Chizuru     Yeah. [19:37] Chizuru     Thanks, Sumi-chan. [19:41] Chizuru     Um, this is Sakurasawa Sumi-chan, my friend. SIGN    Creak SIGN    Crack [19:45] Chizuru     She's here to see you. [19:47] Sayuri     My, what a lovely girl. [19:49] Sayuri     Your friend from college? SIGN    She's so pretty [19:51] Chizuru     S-Something like that! [19:52] Chizuru     Flowers for you. From Sumi-chan. [19:54] Sayuri     How sweet. Thank you. [19:59] Sumi     See you. [20:00] Chizuru     Yeah, see you! [20:06] Sayuri     It's so strange. [20:09] Sayuri     Your overly serious and unapproachable nature     used to be part of what made you special. [20:12] Sayuri     But since you started dating Kazuya-kun, [20:14] Sayuri     there are suddenly a lot     more people in your life. [20:18] Chizuru     It's not like that. And don't make me     sound like some kind of loner. [20:22] Sayuri     What, are you not? [20:23] Chizuru     I'm just busy! I have friends, okay?! [20:26] Sayuri     You're making your movie in     a big group, too. Sounds like fun. [20:30] Chizuru     So, about that... [20:33] Sayuri     Screening?! [20:35] Sayuri     Of course I'll go! [20:36] Sayuri     It's nearly complete, huh? I can't wait! SIGN    I'll get permission     to go out [20:39] Chizuru     Yeah. [20:40] Sayuri     So you finished shooting, then. [20:42] Sayuri     Kazuya-kun must've worked so hard. [20:44] Chizuru     Of course he did. He's the producer. [20:47] Chizuru     If he couldn't complete it after dragging     so many people in, it'd be a disaster. [20:51] Sayuri     Do you really think so? I believe he     must've put his heart and soul into it. [20:56] Chizuru     That's because you didn't see what went on! [20:58] Chizuru     Like, he didn't even understand     how cameras worked at first! [21:02] Chizuru     We had no semblance of a script,     and yet he insisted he could get it done. [21:08] Chizuru     He couldn't even get permission for     the crowdfunding project initially, [21:11] Chizuru     and had to make so many revisions,     he wasn't even eating right for a while. [21:15] Chizuru     It was so bad,     he could've collapsed at any time. [21:18] Chizuru     And later, I don't know if we could've gotten     anywhere without our neighbor's help. [21:22] Chizuru     He's just too reckless,     with no foresight or risk assessment skills! [21:25] Chizuru     Listen to this! When filming paused     because of a noisy cicada, [21:29] Chizuru     he fell off a bridge trying to chase it off! [21:31] Chizuru     It was, like, five meters high! [21:33] Chizuru     Good thing there was a river below, [21:35] Chizuru     because he could've gotten     seriously hurt otherwise! [21:38] Chizuru     And then he was dripping wet and     had the whole crew worried about him. [21:41] Chizuru     He had to change, but we only     had women's clothing on set. [21:45] Chizuru     In the end, he had to     crossdress all the way home! [21:53] Sayuri     Chizuru. [21:55] Sayuri     Do you know when true love begins? [21:58] Chizuru     Huh? [22:00] Sayuri     It's when you're having the time     of your life talking about them. [22:10] Chizuru     It's not like that.

[12:10] (Flashback) Sayuri     It's not something you can get into     just because you want to! [12:13] (Flashback) Katsuhito     So, what, dreams don't come true? [12:16] (Flashback) Sayuri     Huh? [12:17] (Flashback) Sayuri     I'm sure some dreams do come true,     but that's a separate issue! [12:23] (Flashback) Sayuri     Whether it's realistic     or not isn't what matters. [12:26] (Flashback) Sayuri     Dreams can come true. [12:28] (Flashback) Sayuri     That ray of hope can show one the way     to get through this cruel world. [12:34] (Flashback) Sayuri     So what's the problem with     having one person, just one, [12:38] (Flashback) Sayuri     around who tells you that     your dream can come true? [12:41] (Flashback) Sayuri     Katsuhito-san... [12:43] (Flashback) Katsuhito     But, Sayuri... [12:45] (Flashback) Katsuhito     If I die before you, I     need you to ask Chizuru. [12:51] (Flashback) Katsuhito     Is chasing your dream making you suffer? [12:55] (Flashback) Katsuhito     Has my encouragement become a burden to you? [12:59] (Flashback) Katsuhito     I don't want to see Chizuru in pain,     not even for a second. [13:04] Sayuri     You win, Katsuhito-san. [13:09] Sayuri     Chizuru was a far stronger girl     than I could ever imagine. [13:13] Sayuri     She's now a fine lady who enjoys chasing her     dreams, and no reality can drag her down. [13:19] Sayuri     Are you seeing this, Katsuhito-san?     She's going to be in a movie. [13:24] Sayuri     Her face will be all over the silver screen, [13:28] Sayuri     with her acting her heart out, [13:31] Sayuri     surrounded by an audience who     will no doubt give her a big hand. [13:37] Sayuri     She'll then put on her usual bashful smile and bow to them as thanks. [13:42] Sayuri     Gosh, it's enough to make an old woman blush. [13:45] Sayuri     She'll be shining like a true star,     don't you think? [13:50] Sayuri     The decision you made back then     has proven to be the right one. [13:53] Sayuri     Do you see this?

[14:49] Crowd     Do we need an ambulance? [14:51] Crowd     Is she okay? [14:52] Crowd     What about her family? Are they around? [14:55] Crowd     Someone go find them. [14:57] Crowd     Is anyone here related to her? [14:58] Crowd     Either way, we should     really call an ambulance! [15:01] Crowd     Who knows what's happened to her?! [15:04] Crowd     Are you okay? Can you hear me? SIGN    What matters is believing in yourself. [15:34] (Flashback) Crowd     Somebody, anybody! [15:40] (Flashback) Kazuya     Granny Sayuri!

[15:53] (Flashback) Kazuya     Mizuhara... [16:02] Kazuya     Why... [16:03] Kazuya     Why did this happen? [16:05] Kazuya     Did we put her in danger by showing     her around? How's she doing now? [16:09] Kazuya     What's going on with Granny Sayuri     and Mizuhara right now? [16:12] Kazuya     I've never seen Mizuhara like that before... [16:22] Kazuya     Mizuhara, how is she? [16:25] Kazuya     She's fine, right?     She seemed okay earlier today. [16:27] Kazuya     She'll recover like last time, right? [16:29] Chizuru     Not looking good. [16:32] Chizuru     The doctor said it's not likely     she'll recover from this. [16:37] Chizuru     Tonight is make or break. [16:41] Chizuru     Looks like she was really     pushing herself earlier. [16:44] Kazuya     Not looking good? Tonight's make or break? [16:48] Kazuya     She's... Granny Sayuri's gonna die? [16:52] Kazuya     No way! You gotta be kidding me! [16:57] Kazuya     Mizuhara... [16:58] Kazuya     I, uh... I don't know what to say. [17:02] Chizuru     I'm sorry. [17:06] Chizuru     I had you make a whole movie for me,     but I don't think she'll get to see it. [17:13] Chizuru     I'm grateful to you. [17:16] Chizuru     Thanks to you, I can tell myself     I did everything I could for her. [17:21] Chizuru     I'd be lying if I said I'm not frustrated     by this, but I have no regrets. [17:23] Kazuya     What? What the hell is she talking about? [17:27] Kazuya     There's not a single person on this earth     who wouldn't have regrets here! [17:32] Kazuya     Then what was with that face? [17:34] Kazuya     And that one?! [17:36] Kazuya     You love your grandma with all your heart! [17:39] Kazuya     That's why you even went along with my lies! [17:42] Kazuya     She's the only family you have left! [17:44] Kazuya     You've gotta be insanely sad,     hurt, and devastated! [17:50] Kazuya     It's the same for the whole movie thing! [17:52] Kazuya     It was for this day that you     worked as a rental girlfriend, [17:54] Kazuya     saved up all your money,     lived in that run-down apartment, [17:58] Kazuya     worked on your acting skills... [18:00] Kazuya     Day after day after day after day,     you gave it all you had! [18:04] Kazuya     So why... [18:08] Kazuya     Why are you putting on a     brave face right now?! [18:12] Chizuru     Besides, I really don't think     it was all for naught. [18:15] Chizuru     I learned a lot about crowdfunding, [18:17] Chizuru     and the movie will boost my portfolio. [18:21] Chizuru     And I had lots of fun. [18:23] Chizuru     Making a movie with all these people...     It felt like a school festival all over again. [18:28] Chizuru     But still... [18:30] Chizuru     I guess God can play the cruelest tricks. [18:34] Kazuya     I wonder... [18:36] Kazuya     If I was her real boyfriend, [18:39] Kazuya     would I have been able to     comfort her with a hug? [18:46] Kazuya     You fool! [18:48] Kazuya     What am I thinking? [18:50] Kazuya     Mizuhara's the one who's in so much pain! [18:52] Kazuya     Me crying is just ridiculous! [18:54] Chizuru     Well, I'll head back in. [18:57] Kazuya     Okay. [19:07] Kazuya     Is Granny Sayuri conscious? [19:10] Chizuru     Huh? Oh... [19:12] Chizuru     I'm not sure. [19:13] Chizuru     The doctor says she can hear us,     but she's not responding. [19:20] Kazuya     Are you okay with this? [19:22] Kazuya     Are you okay with not telling her about us? [19:26] Kazuya     Not telling her that we're not a real couple? [19:29] Chizuru     What?! [19:30] Chizuru     We've talked about this already! [19:32] Chizuru     Do you want to cause her pain     in her dying moments?! [19:35] Kazuya     What about you? [19:38] Kazuya     Will you be able to get over it? [19:41] Kazuya     I've been thinking about it     since the last time. [19:44] Kazuya     Is keeping up the lie in order not to     make her sad really the right decision? [19:50] Kazuya     In her dying moments, [19:52] Kazuya     if you keep up the act and continue to      lie to the only family you have left... [19:57] Kazuya     Will that not leave you with a sense     of guilt for the rest of your life? [20:02] Kazuya     I'm sure that's not what Granny Sayuri wants. [20:06] Kazuya     Can you really say she can pass on in peace? [20:09] Kazuya     Does a lie really count?! [20:12] Chizuru     It's too late for that. [20:14] Chizuru     You came to terms with this, too! [20:16] Kazuya     Y-Yeah, but... [20:18] Kazuya     This might be our last chance. [20:25] Chizuru     ...you. [20:29] Chizuru     She might die resenting you. [20:37] Kazuya     I'm fine with that. [20:39] Kazuya     I want you to put your feelings first! [20:46] Chizuru     Ridiculous. It's the least smart thing to do. [20:50] Chizuru     Nothing pisses me off     more than the "sad reality." [20:56] Kazuya     Is this really right? [20:59] Kazuya     Making her sad doesn't help. I get that. [21:03] Kazuya     Granny Sayuri wouldn't hold it     against us if we told her the truth, [21:07] Kazuya     and Mizuhara knows that, too. [21:09] Kazuya     But what she said earlier proved beyond     all doubt that she feels guilty about it. [21:14] Kazuya     And if she does, and she keeps up the act,     doesn't come clean, and regrets it later, [21:22] Kazuya     then that is what really     doesn't help in any way at all! [21:26] Kazuya     I'm sure Granny Sayuri would understand... [21:29] Kazuya     Screw everything else. [21:32] Kazuya     Right now, Mizuhara needs to think     about herself first and foremost. [21:36] Kazuya     After all, there's nothing anyone can do... [21:39] Kazuya     There's no longer anything I can do for Mizuhara...

[00:27] Chizuru     Oh, sorry. Thanks for the water. [00:29] Chizuru     I haven't done this in ages,     so I wound up engrossed. [00:32] Chizuru     I forgot that sparklers     can get so smoky, though. [00:36] Chizuru     It got in my eyes. [00:39] Chizuru     Come on! [00:40] Chizuru     Let's keep going! [00:43] Chizuru     We should unpack everything.     That'll make things easier. [00:46] Chizuru     This takes me back! [00:53] Chizuru     It's red. Pretty! [01:03] Kazuya     I knew. [01:05] Kazuya     I knew all along... [01:07] Kazuya     that my cheering her up     wouldn't change a thing. [01:13] Kazuya     That I couldn't do anything to help her. [01:18] Kazuya     Mizuhara really is strong. [01:20] Kazuya     Even now, she's controlling herself [01:23] Kazuya     so that she doesn't bother anyone. [01:25] Kazuya     She played the absolute perfect     girlfriend today, too. [01:29] Kazuya     I get it! I know, damn it! [01:32] Kazuya     Back then, [01:34] Kazuya     back then... [01:35] Kazuya     And ever since we first met, [01:39] Kazuya     I've only ever been a client to her,     a rental girlfriend. [01:39] Chizuru     We're really blowing through them.     Time flies when you're having fun. [01:43] Kazuya     I'm not the kind of person she can rely on,     nor do we have that kinda relationship. [01:49] (Flashback) Chizuru     I'm your rental girlfriend!     This is just how it works! [01:58] Kazuya     But... Even so, Mizuhara... [02:03] Kazuya     I can't help it! [02:05] Kazuya     Looking at you smiling all the time...

SIGN    Sorry for making you     clean up all the trash [03:02] Chizuru     Oh, and I think your date     plan today was wonderful. [03:07] Chizuru     And I don't just mean how much money you spent. [03:11] Chizuru     Hmm, how do I say this? [03:13] Chizuru     It showed you were really putting     yourself in your date's shoes. [03:17] Chizuru     Any girl would be overjoyed     by the effort you put in. [03:20] Chizuru     You might land yourself a real girlfriend soon. [03:24] Kazuya     You know what my ideal girlfriend's like? [03:28] Kazuya     What pushed me to say that right then? [03:31] Kazuya     I still have no idea. [03:33] Kazuya     But with a girl trembling     in sorrow in front of me, [03:37] Kazuya     I can't draw a line because I'm "just a client." [03:40] Kazuya     I don't have it all figured out like that. [03:43] Kazuya     My ideal girlfriend... [03:47] Kazuya     She's pretty, fashionable, and kind. [03:51] Kazuya     But whenever I don't have my act together, [03:53] Kazuya     she gives me the scoldings I deserve. [03:57] Kazuya     She can be a ticking time bomb at times,     but in general, she's cheery. [04:01] Kazuya     She has the most beautiful     smile in the world... [04:11] Kazuya     But sometimes, she cries... just a little bit. [04:16] Kazuya     She's usually the strongest person I know. [04:19] Kazuya     Even when she's in crippling pain, [04:22] Kazuya     she never lets it show. [04:24] Kazuya     She says she did everything she could,     and looks on the bright side. [04:28] Kazuya     She lives life with her dial turned to 11. [04:31] Kazuya     She's always my rock. Not the other way around. [04:34] Kazuya     Having her beside me gives me strength. [04:37] Kazuya     Even when she's hurting inside, [04:39] Kazuya     she does her best not to     let it affect anyone else. [04:42] Kazuya     And though she usually always puts     on a smile when she's with me, [04:47] Kazuya     when she's truly sad,     she lets it drop just for a little bit... [04:52] Kazuya     and cries. [05:06] (Flashback) Sayuri     What? You don't want to feel alone? [05:09] (Flashback) Chizuru     Yeah. [05:11] (Flashback) Sayuri     Come here. [05:15] (Flashback) Chizuru     Don't you ever feel lonely, Grandma? [05:18] (Flashback) Sayuri     Of course I do. [05:20] (Flashback) Chizuru     You do? How do you deal with it?

[06:41] Kazuya     Once the dam broke, Mizuhara continued     to cry until her voice gave out. [06:48] Kazuya     She seemed so much more frail     than she normally does. [06:53] Kazuya     Her crying went way past "just a little bit," [06:58] Kazuya     but my heart went out to her more     than anyone else in my life, ever.

[08:43] Kazuya     And one other thing became crystal clear. [08:48] Kazuya     I really am hopelessly in love with Mizuhara. [08:54] Kazuya     Her trembling shoulders... [08:56] Kazuya     Her red ears... [08:58] Kazuya     Every bit of her seemed     so small, thin, and frail [09:03] Kazuya     that I was afraid she'd     break if I held her tight. SIGN    Noise Canceling     Ghost [09:06] Kazuya     Gah! Maybe I should've hugged her! SIGN    I might've missed     the boat on something [09:10] Kazuya     She might've been hoping I would!

[09:26] Kazuya     I bet she's crying in her apartment right now. [09:30] Kazuya     What is this feeling? [09:33] Kazuya     From the bottom of my heart,     I want to put her first. [09:37] Kazuya     I want to protect her. [09:39] Kazuya     The word "love" doesn't come     close to describing it. [09:48] Kazuya     She is my world! [09:56] Kazuya     Huh? Wha?

[16:39] Chizuru     Did you hear his spiel     about his ideal girlfriend? [16:44] Chizuru     He's always so dramatic. [16:47] Chizuru     Even when we first met, he went,     "There's no way to get your true self on rental." [16:50] Chizuru     Always trying to act cool. [16:52] Chizuru     He's a total dreamer,     and not even embarrassed about it. [16:56] Chizuru     Just completely oblivious. [17:01] Chizuru     But I can't explain it. [17:03] Chizuru     I was so lonely, I wanted to die... [17:07] Chizuru     But I feel so much better after     crying it out in front of him. [17:14] (Flashback) Kazuya     You know what my ideal girlfriend's like? [17:18] Chizuru     Aww, man. [17:20] Chizuru     Weirdo. SIGN    The Aquamarine Constellation SIGN    Special Screening [19:04] Ruka     That was great! [19:17] Tabuse     Chizuru-chan. [19:18] Chizuru     Oh, Director. [19:19] Tabuse     Looking for Kazuya? [19:21] Chizuru     Yes, I am. [19:22] Tabuse     He went to the office     to thank the cinema staff. [19:25] Chizuru     Is that so? [19:27] Tabuse     Got a minute to talk? [19:29] Tabuse     Did you get to show your grandmother the movie? SIGN    I couldn't ask in     front of other people [19:31] Chizuru     Oh... Yes, thankfully. [19:33] Tabuse     I see. That's great. [19:36] Chizuru     You knew what happened at the hospital? [19:39] Tabuse     Honestly? I nearly had a heart attack. [19:42] Tabuse     I messaged Kazuya to say the edit was done, [19:44] Tabuse     and he immediately showed up at my place.     Even asked to borrow the projector. [19:48] Tabuse     He looked more desperate     than I'd ever seen him. SIGN    Burned out SIGN    Space [19:58] Kazuya     It's over... my summer break. [20:01] Kazuya     The peak of my youth. [20:05] Kazuya     I'm glad everyone seemed to like the movie. [20:11] Kazuya     I went and remembered it again! SIGN    One week has passed, but nothing's changed [20:13] Kazuya     What was the deal with those tears?! [20:16] Kazuya     Mizuhara was acting perfectly normal today. [20:18] Kazuya     Are we really gonna sweep     the whole thing under the rug? [20:22] Kazuya     But that means she really didn't want     anyone to see her like that, right? [20:27] Kazuya     Bringing it back up would be rude. [20:28] Chizuru     Hey there. [20:29] Kazuya     Brr! Mizuhara? [20:31] Chizuru     What are you doing out here? SIGN    Thanks for     the drink [20:33] Kazuya     T-Taking a quick timeout. [20:35] Chizuru     Not going to the wrap party? [20:37] Kazuya     I am. [20:38] Chizuru     What about Ruka-chan? [20:40] Kazuya     She's got a shift penciled in     at work for later today. [20:43] Chizuru     Well, she's not of drinking age,     so I guess she couldn't party anyway. [20:47] Kazuya     She really is acting normal. [20:48] Kazuya     I choose not to talk about it.     I am a tactful guy. [20:52] Chizuru     The movie got a good response. [20:54] Kazuya     Y-Yeah. All thanks to your performance. [20:59] Chizuru     What's with the stereotypical     producer's interview answer? [21:01] Kazuya     Lay off me. [21:06] Kazuya     Hey, uh, what are you gonna do? [21:09] Kazuya     Still gonna be an actress? [21:13] Chizuru     Oh, right. Grandma's gone now and all. [21:17] Kazuya     Talk about blunt! [21:19] Chizuru     I'll keep acting. [21:21] Chizuru     I like performing, and I'm sure Grandma's     still watching me from somewhere. [21:26] Chizuru     All I did was screen a self-produced movie     in a hospital room for her. [21:30] Chizuru     I want her to see me shining on screen     as a top actress from up in heaven. [21:34] Kazuya     Mizuhara... [21:36] Chizuru     I don't think the human heart is big     enough to hold both sorrow and joy. [21:43] Chizuru     And that's fine. [21:44] Chizuru     I'll just throw myself into everything I do, [21:47] Chizuru     and have a blast doing it! [21:49] Chizuru     I had loads of fun making     this movie, too, after all! [21:55] Chizuru     Anyway, I'll go on ahead. SIGN    Cute... [22:01] Kazuya     I don't know what effect     all that stuff I did had, but... [22:03] Kazuya     W-Wait. I'll come with you. [22:05] Kazuya     Mizuhara's smile at that moment     seemed brighter than before. [22:08] Kazuya     I'll show you the way! [22:11] Kazuya     All the worries plaguing my mind [22:14] Kazuya     were melted away by that smile. [22:17] Kazuya     And I learned once again that Mizuhara's     always helping me move forward in life. SIGN    Karaoke Village [22:30] Ruka     I wonder if Kazuya will like it. [22:38] Old Man     Why, hello there. [22:48] Kibe     Yeah, I'm almost there. [22:52] Kibe     What? You want to bring in another advisor? [22:55] Kibe     Oh, you became friends on social media? SIGN    Aren't you supposed     to be, like, old? [22:59] Kibe     If you trust them, then I'm all for it. [23:03] Kibe     They're here today? [23:06] Nagomi     Oh, Yoshiaki! Over here! [23:09] Kibe     Hey there. [23:11] Mami     Oh, Kibe-chan! [23:13] Mami     Hello! [23:14] Kibe     Mami...chan?
