SIGN "Ideal Girlfriend and Girlfriend"
[00:25] Kazuya
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...
[02:08] Kazuya
Bottling up all your pain,
putting on a brave face...
[02:09] Chizuru
Wow, memories!
[02:13] Kazuya
Watching you try as hard as you possibly can
[02:14] Chizuru
Okay, we get two each.
[02:18] Kazuya
to move on and live strong, even as
you're left all alone in this world,
[02:23] Kazuya
I stop caring about how annoying, pushy,
[02:26] Kazuya
meddling, conceited, or a garbage
human being it makes me!
[02:33] Kazuya
I just want to help you out any way I can!
[02:38] Kazuya
I want to be there for you!
[02:41] Kazuya
I can't help it!
[02:47] Kazuya
But there's nothing I can do anymore.
[02:53] Chizuru
Oh, it's over.
[02:57] Chizuru
That was fun!
[02:59] Chizuru
Perfect timing, too. We should get going.
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?
[05:24] (Flashback) Sayuri
A nice, big hug fixes it right up.
[05:29] (Flashback) Sayuri
As long as you and Katsuhito-san
are with me, I'll be all right.
[05:36] (Flashback) Sayuri
I love you, Chizuru.
[05:39] (Flashback) Sayuri
You are my treasure.
[06:22] Chizuru
Grandma!
[06:27] Chizuru
Grandpa!
[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.
SIGN Rent-a-Girlfriend
SIGN Where'd that guy go?
[07:08] Fish
Where'd that guy go?
SIGN 44°C? That's a death
sentence (for a fish)
[07:22] Fish
44 Celsius? That's a death sentence.
SIGN Daaaze
[07:26] Kazuya
I can't get last night out of my head.
[07:31] Kazuya
What was that massive moment?!
SIGN (Reality,
that's what)
[07:33] Kazuya
Was it real life, or just a fantasy?
SIGN Hasn't slept a wink
[07:35] Kazuya
Not even a hot bath can take my mind off it!
SIGN The image has been
burned into my brain!!
SIGN The Massive Moment
[07:39] Kazuya
Yeah, I did want her to lean
on me if she needed me,
[07:42] Kazuya
but I didn't expect her to cry so hard.
[07:45] Kazuya
Was it really okay for me to see that?
SIGN The Massive Moment
[07:47] Kazuya
Why did I even say what I did?
[07:49] Kazuya
I saw her in pain and just ended
up blurting out what I felt...
[07:54] Kazuya
What now? Was that the right thing to do?!
SIGN That's a yikes
from me, dude
[07:57] Kazuya
Huh? I don't know anymore!
[07:57] Fish
That's a yikes from me, dude.
[07:58] Kazuya
I don't get anything in my life anymore!
[08:01] Kazuya
She kept crying for, like,
ten minutes after that, and then...
[08:07] (Flashback) Chizuru
Okay, shall we go?
[08:10] (Flashback) Kazuya
Y-Yeah.
[08:12] (Flashback) Chizuru
Hey, uh, sorry about earlier.
[08:15] (Flashback) Kazuya
Oh, no problem. Don't worry about it.
[08:18] (Flashback) Chizuru
Okay. See you.
[08:20] (Flashback) Kazuya
R-Right.
SIGN Graargghhrrrrr
[08:28] Kazuya
The heck was that?
I have no idea what she was thinking!
[08:32] Kazuya
But I guess that shows just how
much she was keeping bottled up.
[08:36] Kazuya
She always tries to fight through
everything, so that was progress, right?
[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!
SIGN That's the problem
with you
[09:11] Fish
That's the problem with you.
[09:14] Kazuya
But now it's been proven beyond doubt!
[09:16] Kazuya
Mizuhara's not a superhuman woman of steel.
[09:19] Kazuya
She's just a girl with chinks in her armor.
[09:22] Kazuya
Her brave act is just that—an act.
[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?
SIGN How'd she get in?
[09:58] Kazuya
What're you doing here, Yaemori-san?!
[09:59] Mini
The door was open.
[10:01] Kazuya
What? No way! When did you come in?
SIGN I even rang
the bell
SIGN Why copy my pose?
[10:03] Mini
Around when you got on your knees.
SIGN Just for fun
SIGN She saw all
the cringe bits!
[10:05] Kazuya
How'd I not hear the intercom?
Was I that deep in thought?
SIGN I must be crazy!
[10:10] Mini
So, what's up?
[10:11] Mini
You were looking at Mizuhara-san's
apartment with hearts in your eyes!
[10:14] Kazuya
I-I wasn't!
[10:16] Mini
How's it going with her?
It's keeping me up all day, you know!
[10:22] Kazuya
Well, I guess it's okay.
[10:25] Kazuya
I did talk to her about it already.
[10:29] Mini
Whoa, really?
[10:31] Mini
You rolled out the red carpet on a rental date?
[10:34] Mini
I like that you didn't get too cocky,
and played it safe.
[10:37] Kazuya
Huh? Thanks, I guess?
SIGN tYou mocking me?
[10:39] Mini
Where'd you go? What'd you eat?
SIGN Take me along
next time
[10:42] Kazuya
Uh, the movies? Crab?
SIGN Why would I?
That makes no sense
[10:44] Mini
Wow, nice!
[10:47] Kazuya
I can't tell her about that part, can I?
SIGN Mizuhara probably doesn't
want anyone to know
[10:51] Mini
So?
[10:52] Mini
Did it cheer Mizuhara-san up?
[10:55] Kazuya
Huh? U-Uh, well...
[10:57] Kazuya
Dunno... I think she had fun?
SIGN During the date
[11:00] Mini
Wow! That's big progress!
SIGN You deserve a medal
[11:03] Kazuya
Y-You think so?
[11:05] Mini
Boy gives girl a shoulder to cry on
when she's in pain after losing her family...
SIGN You've entered the true route
SIGN Taking a selfie
to celebrate
[11:10] Mini
How romantic!
SIGN Snap
[11:13] Kazuya
But ultimately, I don't know
if I was of any help.
[11:19] Mini
Anyway...
[11:21] Mini
You know what the next step is.
[11:23] Kazuya
What?
[11:24] Mini
Asking her out on a regular date.
SIGN That's the
upcoming
chapter
[11:27] Kazuya
What?!
[11:28] Kazuya
Why? No way! I can't!
[11:30] Mini
But... you like her, don't you?
SIGN You wanna go out
with her, right?
[11:32] Kazuya
Uh, I don't know if I'd say I like her...
SIGN I don't know if
I'd say I wanna
go out with her
[11:35] Kazuya
I mean, she and I are just
rental girlfriend and client.
[11:40] Kazuya
There's money involved in our dates!
[11:42] Kazuya
And what happened to "playing it safe"?
SIGN I'm talking about the next step
[11:44] Mini
You're talking about the status quo.
[11:47] Mini
It's clear to anyone that your relationship
has gone way beyond a rental agreement.
[11:53] Mini
And as long as they can take no for an answer,
[11:54] Mini
a neighbor asking a girl out
for dinner wouldn't piss her off.
SIGN If anything, you're making
too big a deal out of it
[12:00] Mini
Your stock has gone up now, no doubt.
SIGN Strike while
the iron's hot
[12:05] Mini
This is your chance to confirm
how open she is to the idea!
[12:10] Kazuya
Really?
[12:13] Kazuya
But given what just happened...
[12:15] Kazuya
If I ask her out for real, out of nowhere,
she might think I'm pushing my luck...
[12:20] Kazuya
No way! I can't do it!
[12:22] Mini
What are you saying?!
[12:24] Mini
You're the one who threw yourself
into a doomed romance!
SIGN Say your
prayers already!
[12:27] Kazuya
Don't call it doomed!
[12:28] Mini
Quit struggling, and gimme that phone!
SIGN I can feel
a bunch of parts
[12:31] Kazuya
I'm gonna go get lunch!
[12:33] Mini
Hey, wait!
[12:39] Mini
Sheesh.
[12:41] Mini
Our hero's a real handful.
[12:50] Kazuya
Is Mizuhara down in the dumps right about now?
[12:55] Kazuya
I'd never seen her like that before,
[12:57] Kazuya
and I'm sure she didn't want anyone
to see her like that, either.
[13:01] Kazuya
Her emotions must've got the best of her
because she's always putting on a brave face.
[13:07] Kazuya
Well, after what happened between us,
[13:11] Kazuya
I wouldn't be surprised if she
came to me instead, but...
[13:16] Kazuya
Either way, I'm the only one
who knows how she truly feels.
[13:20] Kazuya
I gotta be there for her.
[13:22] (Flashback) Mini
Asking her out on a regular date.
SIGN That's the
upcoming
chapter
SIGN Peaches
from
Mom
SIGN Thanks
[13:32] Kazuya
You know, asking her out in her
off-time would be too sudden,
[13:37] Kazuya
but I want her to talk to me if she needs me,
[13:39] Kazuya
and I can't very well just
leave her alone like this.
[13:43] Kazuya
Sharing is caring!
[13:44] Kazuya
The most basic neighbor-cheering-up move!
SIGN This is fair game, right?
Totally fair game!
[13:48] Kazuya
This is totally natural as a neighbor!
SIGN Being defensive
as always
[13:51] Kazuya
And after seeing her like that, I can't b—
[13:54] Kazuya
Ack!
[13:55] Chizuru
"Ack"?
[13:56] Kazuya
M-Mizuhara!
[13:59] Chizuru
Yeah?
SIGN Got taken
by surprise
[14:02] Kazuya
Gah! This is so damn awkward!
[14:03] Kazuya
H-Hello!
[14:06] Kazuya
Like the day after a big fight,
though we didn't get into a fight!
[14:09] Kazuya
Like the day after we started going out,
though we aren't going out!
[14:13] Kazuya
But I know she's having a hard time!
[14:16] Kazuya
If she can't talk to anyone else,
she can talk to me!
[14:19] Kazuya
If she's hurting, I want her to let me know!
[14:21] Kazuya
I want her to rely on me!
[14:23] Kazuya
M-Mizuhara! About yesterday...
[14:26] Chizuru
Next week, huh?
[14:27] Kazuya
Huh?
[14:28] Chizuru
The screening. It's on Sunday, right?
SIGN Nothing left to do but pray
[14:31] Chizuru
It's finally here.
[14:33] Chizuru
But, hey, we've done everything we could.
[14:37] Chizuru
About my outfit for the day,
[14:39] Chizuru
I think I should go with something blue
to match Kyoko's last scene.
[14:45] Chizuru
But the intro scene's memorable, too,
[14:49] Chizuru
so I'm torn between blue and red.
[14:52] Kazuya
Uh, wait... Huh? What?
[14:52] Chizuru
Though I know I'm going with a dress
either way, because she wears them often.
[14:56] Kazuya
What?!
[14:58] Chizuru
Are you even listening?
[15:00] Kazuya
Huh? O-Oh, I think either's fine.
[15:03] Chizuru
Could you at least pretend
to give it some thought?
SIGN That's the problem with you
[15:05] Kazuya
F-Fine, blue.
[15:06] Kazuya
She's just gonna pretend
all that never happened?
[15:10] Chizuru
Blue, eh? I'll try looking for something.
[15:10] Kazuya
There's no way she's forgotten about it!
[15:13] Chizuru
Bye.
[15:18] Kazuya
I forgot to give her the peaches...
[15:20] Kazuya
What was that all about?!
SIGN Peaches
[15:22] Fish
Why don't you put those peaches
in the fridge for now?
SIGN Roll Roll
[15:25] Kazuya
Is that even possible?
After that moment we shared?!
SIGN Wail
SIGN Pretend it
never happened?!
[15:29] Kazuya
Surely we had some stuff to talk about!
SIGN Flail
SIGN Heart-to-Heart
[15:33] Kazuya
Ow! I didn't dream it all up!
SIGN I mean,
it happened
last night
[15:35] Kazuya
Like it just never happened...
[15:38] Kazuya
Like we just removed yesterday
from the history books!
[15:40] Kazuya
A mystery!
[15:41] Kazuya
Girls are a total mystery!
[15:43] Kazuya
Don't tell me...
[15:45] Kazuya
It can't be.
[15:46] Kazuya
That whole thing wasn't an act, was it?
[15:49] Kazuya
All because I said my ideal girlfriend cries?
SIGN Cat
[15:52] Chizuru
The customer's always right.
[15:54] Kazuya
No way! That's way too freaky!
SIGN She's evolved into
a higher plane of existence
[15:56] Kazuya
Does she have perfect control
over her tear glands?!
[16:01] Kazuya
Yeah, nah, I'm overthinking it.
[16:04] Kazuya
I'm sure she wants to let it all out,
but is controlling herself.
[16:09] Kazuya
I want to keep being there for her.
SIGN Bang
SIGN Bang
[16:15] Kazuya
Ugh...
[16:17] Kazuya
How many more times do I have to feel this way?
[16:22] Chizuru
If you're watching from up in heaven,
[16:25] Chizuru
you must know the whole truth now.
[16:28] Chizuru
That's right. He's not
my boyfriend or anything.
[16:32] Chizuru
I just work as a rental girlfriend on the side.
[16:35] Chizuru
But...
[16:36] Chizuru
I was unprofessional.
[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?
When will season 4 be released?
