[02:11] Inukai     'Sup? [02:12] Himuro     I haven't seen you in a while.     Were you with your soccer club? [02:15] Inukai     I already retired from that. [02:18] Inukai     I've just been out enjoying     the nightlife a bit is all. [02:20] Inukai     And you, my senpai, have you gotten all     fired up about any research lately? [02:23] Yukimura     Perfect timing. [02:25] Yukimura     Kosuke, I have a question for you. [02:27] Yukimura     Are you in love with anyone? [02:32] Inukai     That's a foolish question. [02:34] Inukai     I'm a man who lives on love! [02:37] Inukai     The number of women I've loved     is impossible to count. [02:40] Yukimura     That's a great help. [02:42] Yukimura     In that case, who are you     in love with currently? [02:46] Inukai     Her name is Aika. My lover who     lives in a far, distant world. [02:50] Himuro     A distant world... SIGN    Love'      ｛Kosuke love, Aika｝ [02:52] Himuro     What they call a "long-distance     relationship," then... [02:54] Yukimura     And what proof leads you to determine     that you love this Aika? [02:58] Inukai     Proof? [03:00] Inukai     Hmm... Let's see... [03:02] Inukai     Just being with her is fun,     and my heart feels like it's racing! [03:07] Inukai     I suppose... that's what     people call "happiness." [03:12] Himuro     I understand, Kosuke-kun. [03:15] Himuro     I feel the same way when     I'm with Yukimura-kun. [03:18] Himuro     When I'm with him, everything is fun. [03:20] Himuro     When I'm with him, my heart races. [03:22] Himuro     These seem likely to be     the base conditions for love. [03:28] Yukimura     What else? [03:29] Yukimura     If possible, something with a     numerical value would be preferred. [03:32] Inukai     A numerical value? [03:35] Inukai     Oh! [03:36] Inukai     For Aika, I've ended up spending     a total of about 227,000 yen, [03:41] Inukai     but that's only to be expected, isn't it? [03:44] Himuro     Two hundred twenty-seven... thousand yen? [03:47] Himuro     The amount of money I've     spent on Yukimura-kun is... [03:50] (Flashback) Himuro     It's not like there's anyone else     giving you birthday presents, is there? [03:53] (Flashback) Yukimura     You always say one thing too much. [03:55] Himuro     ...pretty much only the 728 yen     notebook I gave him last year.

[04:47] Himuro     Looking at it objectively,     I might have been mistaken. [04:55] Himuro     Is this the true form of a person in love? [04:58] Himuro     If you don't feel at least that much,     is it wrong to call it "love"? [05:02] Ibarada     When you say "Aika-chan,"     do you mean this girl?

[05:24] Kanade     She reminds me a little of Ibarada-senpai— [05:27] Inukai     That's the version for the second     playthough! Blast! Did it autoplay? [05:31] Yukimura     What? When you said you were in love,     you were talking about that thing? [05:34] Inukai     Well... Um... [05:36] Yukimura     Explain the preconditions     clearly and precisely. [05:42] Inukai     Yeah! That's right! [05:44] Inukai     Aika is a character from a gal game! [05:46] Inukai     Of all the women I have loved in my life, [05:48] Inukai     all of them are 2D!

[05:55] Inukai     All my interests have been exposed! [05:59] Ibarada     Huh... So you did all that thinking     you were keeping it hidden? [06:02] (Flashback) Inukai     You're beautiful as ever today, Aika. [06:06] Yukimura     In InfoSci, it's not particularly unusual     to have otaku-type interests, is it? [06:09] Yukimura     There's no need to hide it. [06:13] Inukai     You say that, [06:15] Inukai     but people who are satisfied with an offline     life stare at you like you're crazy. [06:18] Inukai; background     Kiss... [06:19] Inukai     And if you say that every morning you     give your pillow a good morning kiss... [06:23] Inukai     most people freak out, like it's totally creepy! [06:25] Kanade     Well, yeah. SIGN    Rikakoi [06:27] Inukai     I do understand. [06:28] Inukai     Falling in love with a 2D character     is creepy. I know that much. [06:32] Yukimura     Creepy? [06:34] Yukimura     If you consider yourself a science-type, [06:36] Yukimura     then do not make determinations based     on ridiculous emotional arguments. [06:40] Yukimura     "Romance can only occur between two humans." [06:43] Yukimura     There is no definition or     rule which states this. [06:46] Yukimura     Human sexual orientation is diverse. [06:48] Yukimura     There is no right or wrong in that.

[07:13] Yukimura     There is nothing strange about you! [07:18] Inukai     Amazing! [07:19] Inukai     He's totally made a logical     affirmation of my interests! [07:22] Inukai     Yukimura-senpai's science     powers truly are awesome! [07:27] Inukai     Thanks, Yukimura-senpai. [07:29] Inukai     I feel like a load's been taken off my chest. [07:32] Inukai     Now, I can once again live by     love as I have always done! [07:38] Inukai     Aika! [07:41] Yukimura     What's wrong, Himuro? Do you     have a refutation or something? [07:44] Himuro     I don't know what to do. I might not     be in love with you, Yukimura-kun. [07:48] Yukimura     What? [07:49] Yukimura     How did you arrive at that conclusion? [07:51] Himuro     If Kosuke-kun's love is close to the general     prerequisites for the condition, SIGN    Love'     ｛A love, B｝ pillow          Index representing     the number of times     A has slept with a     pillow of B. SIGN    Love'      ｛A love, B｝ money          Index representing the amount of money A has spent on B. [07:55] Himuro     then I'm nowhere near reaching them.

[08:11] Yukimura     You are strange! [08:12] Inukai     What?! [08:13] Yukimura     I said that loving a 2D character and     a famous person were the same, [08:16] Yukimura     but there aren't many people who     would have a body pillow [08:18] Yukimura     of a famous person they     love for over two years. [08:20] Inukai     Wait, what about all that emotion     and determination I had just now, [08:23] Inukai     Yukimura-senpai?! [08:24] Yukimura     In a word, your love is excessive. [08:28] Inukai     What?! [08:37] Kanade     What's wrong, Himuro-senpai? [08:39] Himuro     Nothing. I'm all right. [08:42] Himuro     Kosuke-kun's "love" was deemed excessive, [08:45] Himuro     so it isn't certain that my love,     which is less than his, [08:49] Himuro     would be deemed as not     reaching normal levels... [08:51] Kanade     D-Don't worry! Please, believe in yourself! [08:55] Kanade     Come on, chin up. Let's go with that     dignity you always carry yourself with! [08:59] Himuro     Th-Thank you, Kanade-chan. [09:06] Himuro     A long, long time ago, [09:08] Himuro     there was someone who said the same     things you say to me, Kanade-chan. [09:11] Kanade     Said the same things? [09:13] Himuro     I... used to get bullied. [09:17] Himuro     Because I was the kind of child who     would spend all day studying pillbugs. [09:22] Kanade     S-So, you've always been a science-type! [09:25] Kanade     Oh, man! Did I step on a land mine? [09:27] Himuro     But, you know... [09:29] Himuro     I met someone, and I changed. [09:32] Himuro     Someone whose name I don't know.     Someone I looked up to. [09:35] (Flashback) background     You're going to make it again right?

[10:03] (Flashback) elementary school Himuro     I knew it! [10:13] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Researching a pillbug's tendency to switch     directions when reacting to stimulus, I see. [10:19] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     When pillbugs turn right at a corner,     they turn left at the next corner, [10:24] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     and they continue to alternate directions.     This is a trait they possess. [10:26] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     It is, indeed, quite interesting. SIGN    baldy four-eyes nerd [10:31] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     It seems that you, like myself,     have set your sights on science. [10:38] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     What? What is it you want to say? [10:45] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Oh, this? [10:47] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     It's of an inferior level,     and the vocabulary is lacking. SIGN    baldy four-eyes nerd [10:49] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Just infantile harassment of my incompetent     classmates. I pay it no mind. [10:55] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Always deal with things     calmly and intellectually. [10:59] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     That is what a science-type is, after all. [11:05] (Flashback) elementary school Himuro     I... don't think... I can become like that... [11:11] (Flashback) elementary school Himuro     I just... [11:12] (Flashback) elementary school Himuro     I just like observing pillbugs     and stuff, that's all... [11:15] (Flashback) elementary school Himuro     But everyone says I'm weird. [11:18] (Flashback) elementary school Himuro     They say it's creepy. [11:21] (Flashback) elementary school Himuro     They say they hate me...     that they don't need me... [11:25] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Are you stupid? [11:27] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Loving to observe plants and animals and     their interactions with their environment, [11:30] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     shows, without a doubt, that you possess the     same disposition toward science that I do. [11:36] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     This was published by MEXT.     The university entrance rate for 2005. [11:41] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     In any given year, the sciences     exhibit a high level of entrance. [11:45] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     And in recent years, [11:46] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     female acceptance rates have     begun to surpass those of males. [11:50] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     From this point, because their     overall numbers are low, [11:53] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     science girls will be needed more than ever. [11:55] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     That means that your future is rosy! [11:58] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Additionally, the fact that people     hate you is not the pillbugs' fault. [12:02] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     It's because you have a gloomy appearance! [12:05] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Psychologically speaking,     it's called a "halo effect"... [12:08] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     There is a tendency for physical appearance [12:08] (Flashback) creepy man     Please... look... [12:10] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     to influence the way other     traits are perceived. [12:11] (Flashback) creepy man     Pillbugs are fascinating... [12:13] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Your level of gloominess causes people's     perception of your observations to be negative. [12:14] (Flashback) nice young man     Please, take a look. [12:15] (Flashback) nice young man     Pillbugs have a very interesting     form of locomotion. [12:18] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Stand up! [12:19] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Cut your bangs! [12:20] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Get your physical appearance in order. [12:22] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     Keep your head up and always move forward     boldly, with beauty and dignity! [12:29] (Flashback) elementary school Yukimura     If you do, then a pillbug or two will     do nothing to overshadow that beauty. [12:37] Himuro     I couldn't ask that boy     what his name was, but... [12:42] Himuro     Like him, always intellectual and logical, [12:46] Himuro     and above that, dignified,     a cool science-type... [12:49] Himuro     I wanted to be like that one day. [12:52] Kanade     Well, it seems you managed to do it. [12:54] Kanade     Himuro-senpai, you're beautiful and     cool, exactly the way you described. [12:59] Himuro     Thank you, Kanade-chan. [13:01] Himuro     I feel I'm still only partway there. [13:03] Himuro     I can't prove I'm in love. [13:06] Himuro     Numerically, I fall far behind Kosuke-kun... [13:09] Himuro     At this rate, I won't be able to face     the person who helped me, will I? [13:18] Yukimura     What kind of unloveable brat was that? [13:21] Yukimura     There's embarrassing,     but there should be limits. [13:25] Kanade     Yukimura-senpai... [13:27] Himuro     I found him incredibly wonderful. [13:30] Yukimura     When I was in elementary school,     I was in Kounosu, too. [13:33] Yukimura     If I'd ever met him back then,     I'd have won any argument, no question. [13:36] Himuro     I can't believe you'd ever     have beat him, Yukimura-kun. [13:41] Kanade     I mean... [13:43] Kanade     It's totally obvious that the kid     has to have been Yukimura-senpai! [13:46] Kanade     Why can't these two figure that out? [13:49] Yukimura     According to data from MEXT, [13:51] Yukimura     the difference between science and     liberal arts entrance rates is 0.7%. [13:54] Yukimura; background     This is not data which shows a     certain superiority in science. [13:55] Kanade     This means that Himuro-senpai     met this person 13 years ago. [13:57] Yukimura; background     The logic doesn't hold up. [13:59] Himuro; background     Why are you competing with     an elementary schooler? [14:00] Kanade     She idolized Yukimura-senpai,     and turned out the way she is now. [14:02] Himuro; background     Besides, the important     thing in that presentation [14:03] Kanade     Then, without realizing it, she met him     again and fell in love with him again! [14:04] Himuro; background     wasn't how accurate the logic was, [14:06] Himuro; background     it was how persuasive I found it. [14:08] Yukimura     The burden of proof lies     with you, doesn't it? [14:08] Kanade     Would you two just get married already?! [14:10] Himuro     It's supposed to be joint     research, isn't it? [14:13] Kanade     I have something I want     to say to the both of you. [14:16] Kanade     The reason your research isn't progressing     is because what you're doing isn't normal. [14:21] Kanade     Let's do what's normal. [14:24] Kanade     Let's send the two of you on a date. SIGN    Science Fell in Love,     So I Tried to Prove It [14:36] Inukai     A date? [14:37] Ibarada     A date, huh? [14:39] Kanade     Normal is best, after all. [14:41] Kanade     When people fall in love, the first thing they     do is go on dates to deepen their relationship. [14:45] Kanade     That's normal, isn't it? [14:49] Yukimura     You have a point. [14:51] Yukimura     So, Kanade... [14:52] Yukimura     What is the definition of a date? [14:54] Kanade     I knew this was coming! SIGN    Date: Definition 1 SIGN    Kanade Kotonoha's Example [15:04] Takahashi     Kanade-kun. [15:06] Kanade     Takahashi-sensei! [15:11] Kanade     Hata-kun couldn't come after all. [15:14] Takahashi     I suppose that can't be helped.     We'll be going with just us then. [15:17] Kanade     Okay! [15:18] Takahashi     The venue for the science and math     forum is a bit of a walk from here. [15:21] Kanade     Okay. [15:24] Kanade     It's a club activity,     but I'm alone with him. [15:29] Kanade     Is this a date? It is a     date, isn't it? Yeah. [15:32] Kanade     He might not think of it that way, [15:35] Kanade     but since we're a male and female     going out, just the two of us, [15:37] Kanade     by my definition, it's a date! [15:42] Kanade     O wind! Carry my feelings     so that he might know them! [15:47] Kanade     Now, this moment, will forever     be held in my heart. [15:51] Kanade     Just as flowers bloom, so will my love. [15:56] Kanade     This wonderful time I spend with you... [15:58] Kanade     Yes! Time as sweet as honey! [16:04] Himuro     Kanade-chan. What's wrong? [16:07] Kanade     Apologies. I just remembered     something from my dark past. [16:11] Kanade     But, well, a date is generally [16:13] Kanade     something where a man and a woman     plan to do something together. [16:16] Inukai     If it's a date, leave it to me, [16:18] Inukai     to this man who lives by love. [16:21] Inukai     Allow me to instruct you. [16:23] Inukai     A date, you see, is... SIGN    Date: Definition 2 SIGN    Inukai Kosuke's Example [16:29] Aika     When you think of a date, it's     gotta be the amusement park, right? [16:32] Aika     Let's go, Kosuke! [16:34] Inukai     Sure. [16:34] Aika     I can't believe you're     scared of roller coasters. [16:37] Inukai     What? [16:38] Aika     O-O-Of course I'm not scared! [16:40] Aika     I'm just supporting you because     you're so freaked out! [16:43] Inukai     I thought that might be it. [16:47] Aika     Thank you, Kosuke. [16:50] Aika     I'm glad we came together. [16:53] Inukai     So am I. [16:55] Aika     Kosuke. [16:57] Kanade     Kosuke-kun. [16:58] Kanade     You're talking about a game, aren't you? [17:01] Inukai     What?! How could you tell? SIGN    Aika SIGN    "I'm glad we came..." [17:04] Ibarada     There's no way this stupid otaku numskull     would know anything about real life dates. [17:09] Inukai     Wha? [17:10] Ibarada     Are you listening? This is what a date is... SIGN    Date: Definition 3 SIGN    Ibarada Ena's Example [17:19] Yukimura     Why did you invite me today? [17:22] Himuro-kun     Well, why do you think? [17:33] Himuro-kun     Are you afraid? [17:35] Yukimura     Of course I'm not— [17:40] Inukai     Hey! [17:41] Inukai     Who the heck are you?     It's turned into a BL story! [17:45] Yukimura     Who is this man? [17:47] Ibarada     That's Himuro Ayami-kun. [17:49] Ibarada     He pours his passion into his research.     A handsome science-type man. [17:52] Ibarada     Sagittarius. Blood type O. [17:54] Ibarada     Height, 186 cm. Weight, 70 kg. [17:57] Ibarada     He sees shadows of his childhood friend     who died in his lab partner, Yukimura-kun. [18:03] Ibarada     Even as he suffers pangs of conscience,     he can't stop his love from growing. [18:07] Ibarada     But, not knowing whether they are feelings [18:10] Ibarada     for the friend he lost or for     Yukimura-kun, he suffers alone. [18:14] Ibarada     Then, when Yukimura-kun learns of     Himuro-kun's confusion and pain, [18:19] Ibarada     he heads to the Okhotsk     in the dead of winter. [18:21] Inukai     That set-up is unnecessarily long! [18:24] Kanade     Though it seems not all are dissatisfied. SIGN    Definition of "Date"          If a man and a woman go somewhere alone, it's pretty much a date.      SIGN    Generally, this includes meals, shopping, sight-seeing, watching movies,     amusement parks, other attractions, enjoying a night view, etc. SIGN    Rather than the above-mentioned activities, using the activities     to mutually confirm emotions is said to be the primary objective. SIGN    Specific Actions SIGN    Destination 1 Ex: Amusement Park SIGN    Haunted house When frightened by artificial ghosts, the other gender     exhibits often observed. Opportunity for close contact is also increased, and SIGN    Coffee Cups It seems couples ride this [18:34] Yukimura     Summarizing gives us this, at the moment. [18:37] Kanade     There's so much stuff to do! [18:39] Inukai     Well, we could probably add     another 20 to 30 items. [18:42] Inukai     Considering it's us, we've held     back quite a bit, don't you think? [18:44] Kanade     Why is Kosuke-kun acting so cocky? [18:48] Yukimura     Very well. [18:49] Yukimura     If those in a state of "love"     perform these actions, [18:54] Yukimura     then this experiment is worth doing. [18:56] Himuro     Let's begin planning immediately. [18:58] Kanade     Yes. Good. Just like that. Please do! SIGN    Cosmo Land SIGN    Park Map [19:02] Himuro     In order to visit every destination     in the most efficient manner, [19:06] Himuro     we must construct the optimal     route for our date! [19:08] Kanade     What? [19:09] Himuro     The entrance is the start point     and there are 22 destinations. [19:13] Himuro     Which order would be the     fastest, do you think? [19:16] Yukimura     This is your area of     research, right, Kanade? [19:20] Kanade     The traveling salesman problem! SIGN    Traveling     Salesman Problem [19:24] Rikekuma     The traveling salesman problem! [19:29] Rikekuma     Or... the Traveling Salesman Problem! [19:34] Rikekuma     It sounds cooler that way, doesn't it, bear? [19:38] Rikekuma     In short, when a suspicious salesman wants     to go to 100 places to push his wares, [19:44] Rikekuma     he wants to figure out     what route is the fastest. [19:46] Rikekuma     That's what this problem is about, bear. [19:49] Rikekuma     If you went and straight up     calculated every single course, [19:52] Rikekuma     even if you used a supercomputer, [19:53] Rikekuma     the number of years it'd take would     have about 140 zeros after it, bear. [19:57] Rikekuma     It's a difficult problem with     no absolute correct answer. [20:01] Rikekuma     Using specialist jargon to say it in     a cool way, it's "NP-hard," bear. [20:05] Rikekuma     Which is why... [20:06] Rikekuma     Many methods of solving it are currently     being researched, bear, but [20:09] Rikekuma     this explanation is getting     to be too much work, bear. [20:12] Rikekuma     If you want to know more,     then look it up yourself, bear! [20:17] Yukimura     If the course is to be of practical use, [20:19] Yukimura     then it should be perfectly     possible to calculate. [20:22] Kanade     Um... [20:23] Kanade     Is there really any need     to be that efficient? [20:27] Yukimura and Himuro     This way... [20:27] Yukimura and Himuro     This way... [20:28] Yukimura; simultaneous     we can conduct more experiments! [20:28] Himuro; simultaneous     we can go to more date spots! [20:31] Yukimura     Distance. [20:33] both     1,325.06. [20:36] Yukimura     They're the same. [20:37] Himuro     Which means this is the most     appropriate travel route. [20:40] Ibarada     Yup. Too bad. [20:42] Ibarada     Distance, 1,299.46. [20:46] Ibarada     You two still have a long way to go. [20:48] Yukimura     You little...! What method did you use? [20:51] Ibarada     An angle adjusted tabu search. [20:53] Himuro     Angles? Where did you find that? [20:55] Ibarada     Well, it was a pretty minor paper. [20:59] Kanade     All right, now. [20:59] Kanade     We're moving on to the next stage! [21:02] Yukimura     The next...? [21:03] Himuro     What is that? [21:05] Kanade     Now that the date plan has been decided, [21:07] Kanade     Yukimura-senpai, you need to officially     invite Himuro-senpai to go on a date with you! [21:13] Yukimura     Is there any point to that action? [21:16] Yukimura     We've already decided we're     doing the experiment. [21:19] Yukimura     Right, Himuro? [21:23] Yukimura     What? [21:24] Himuro     Nothing. It's fine. [21:35] Yukimura     Himuro... [21:37] Yukimura     Um... you know... [21:40] Yukimura     Would you...want to... [21:45] Yukimura     go on a date with me? [21:54] Himuro     What are you saying? [21:55] Himuro     That's already definite. [23:34] Kanade     Next time, Proof 4. SIGN    Next Time SIGN    Proof 4     Science-types Fell in Love,     So They Tried Going on a Date. [23:37] Kanade     "Science-types Fell in Love,     So They Tried Going on a Date."
