[00:36] Shikimori
Did I keep you waiting?
[00:39] Izumi
Y-Your outfit...
[00:41] Shikimori
Oh, I thought a skirt might
be too restrictive.
[00:45] Shikimori
I wanted something comfortable
to walk around in,
[00:47] Shikimori
so I borrowed my mom's coat.
[00:50] Izumi
She...
[00:51] Izumi
She looks so cool!

#12 Better Than a Dream
[02:35] Shikimori
Wh-Where should we start?
[02:38] Izumi
Heh, heh, heh.
First order of business is...
[02:43] Izumi
This, of course!
[02:45] Shikimori
E-Ears? They're cute!
[02:47] Shikimori
B-But that kind of thing
isn't really for me.
SIGN Embarrassed to Death
[02:54] Shikimori
I'd like to see you in some, though...
[02:58] Izumi
I'd love to see you wear them.
[03:02] Shikimori
Um... well, then...
[03:06] Shikimori
I'll take this!
[03:09] Izumi
A s-skull?!
[03:11] Shikimori
But look. If I fasten up my coat...
[03:16] Shikimori
Doesn't it sort of match what I'm wearing?
[03:18] Izumi
She's a prince from the underworld!
[03:21] Izumi
A million points!
[03:22] Shikimori
Yay!
[03:24] Izumi
Let's ride this first.
[03:25] Shikimori
Okay.
[03:26] Shikimori
There's a 90-minute wait?!
[03:28] Izumi
Well, it just opened last year.
[03:31] Izumi
If you don't get here early,
apparently it can take up to 180 minutes.
[03:34] Shikimori
W-Wow...
[03:38] Shikimori
Look at this!
[03:39] Izumi
Briars, huh?
[03:40] Shikimori
Briar Rose... She's from
Sleeping Beauty, right?
[03:45] Shikimori
What was that story about again?
[03:47] Izumi
The princess is cursed
to slumber for a hundred years.
[03:52] Izumi
And in that time, the castle
becomes overgrown with briars.
[03:57] Izumi
The prince braves the thicket,
heedless of the danger,
[04:00] Izumi
to find the princess. He then kisses her,
[04:03] Izumi
freeing her from her century-long curse.
[04:06] Shikimori
I had no idea. So that's how it goes...
[04:11] Izumi
Yeah, you don't seem
like you'd be into fairy tales.
[04:14] Shikimori
How rude! I liked picture books
just like everyone else!
[04:18] Izumi
But you didn't know Sleeping Beauty?
[04:21] Izumi
Which was your favorite, then?
[04:22] Shikimori
Um, uh...
[04:26] Shikimori
The Ugly Duckling, maybe?
[04:28] Izumi
That's so dark! Did something
sad happen to you?
[04:32] Shikimori
No, of course not!
[04:34] Shikimori
I just enjoy things that have a little edge,
like horror and suspense.
[04:38] Izumi
Still dark.
[04:40] Shikimori
And that's still rude!
[04:43] Izumi
Remember the first time we went
to see a movie together
[04:46] Izumi
and you said you were okay
with whatever I wanted to see?
[04:50] Shikimori
Yes.
[04:51] Izumi
Then at the fireworks, you said
you wanted me to see your cute side.
[04:56] Izumi
But I want to see all of you,
not just your cute side.
[05:03] Izumi
Of course, I already know your
proud side that hates to lose.
[05:11] Izumi
Hey, Shikimori-san, do you have a dream?
[05:14] Shikimori
I do, actually.
[05:17] Izumi
Really? What is it?
[05:19] Shikimori
I once read a shojo manga...
[05:22] Shikimori
A romance story.
[05:25] Shikimori
It made me think love was amazing.
[05:29] Shikimori
My dream is to experience it for myself.
[05:33] Izumi
Love?
[05:35] Shikimori
But that dream's already come true.
[05:43] Woman2 E12
Still waiting...
[05:45] Guy E12
This is taking ages.
[05:56] Guide
Step forward, please.
[05:59] Izumi
That 90-minute wait kinda
flew right by, huh?
[06:02] Shikimori
It sure did.
[06:04] Shikimori
Be careful. Watch yourself.
[06:06] Izumi
Here we go.
[06:09] Shikimori
This is so exciting!
[06:11] Izumi
Right?
[06:12] Voice
Welcome to the world of Sleeping Beauty*.
[06:28] Izumi
It's a slower ride than I thought.
[06:31] Izumi
There are some aromatic fragrances,
[06:33] Izumi
pretty music, and a gentle rocking...
[06:39] Izumi
I-I'm getting sleeping...
[06:42] Shikimori
Isn't it lovely, Izumi-san?
[06:45] Shikimori
Izumi-san?
[06:52] Voice
After being kissed by the prince,
[06:59] Voice
Sleeping Beauty awoke from*
her hundred-year slumber.
[07:05] Guide
Welcome back!
[07:07] Shikimori
The ride's over, Izumi-san!
[07:12] Izumi
I fell asleep toward the end...
[07:15] Izumi
But it was really pretty, wasn't it?
[07:17] Shikimori
I-It really was.
I can still smell that nice aroma.
[07:21] Izumi
What did you think? Did you enjoy it?
[07:23] Shikimori
Of course!
[07:25] Shikimori
Although I wasn't expecting such a long wait.
[07:29] Izumi
Yeah. Shall we go for one
with a shorter line next?
[07:38] Izumi
Shikimori-san?
[07:39] Shikimori
I'd wait in any line.
[07:47] Izumi
Sh-Shikimori?
[07:49] Shikimori
Because as long as I'm with you,
[07:51] Shikimori
any time we spend together
is just so much fun!
[07:56] Izumi
I agree!
[07:57] Izumi
Okay, let's get to the next one!
[07:59] Izumi
We gotta hurry before it gets dark!
[08:07] Shikimori
There's no need to rush.
We have plenty of time.
[08:35] Izumi
What?!
[08:36] Receptionist
I-I'm terribly sorry.
[08:39] Receptionist
We gave your table to
another guest by mistake,
[08:43] Receptionist
and all the tables for the course
you reserved are already taken.
[08:48] Izumi
O-Of all the luck!
[08:50] Izumi
This was the centerpiece
of my entire date plan!
[08:54] Receptionist
I could arrange a different table.
[08:56] Izumi
Oh... Really? That'd be great.
[09:05] Izumi
This is...
[09:07] Izumi
This is...
[09:10] Izumi
This is an incredible upgrade!
[09:14] Waitress
What would you like to drink?
[09:17] Izumi
O-Orange juice, please.
[09:20] Shikimori
I'll have a ginger ale.
[09:23] Waitress
Certainly.
[09:25] Izumi
Th-The lady up front was really nice, huh?
[09:28] Shikimori
Yes, to give us such an expensive table...
[09:35] Izumi
It's way too formal!
My jacket sticks out like a sore thumb!
[09:40] Waiter
Here you are, sir.
[09:41] Izumi
Thanks!
[09:46] Shikimori
You switched gears fast!
[09:47] Izumi
Wow, this looks so good!
[09:50] Izumi
Wait, is this napkin supposed
to go over my lap?
[09:54] Shikimori
I think so, yes.
[09:57] Izumi
Why are there so many forks?
[09:59] Shikimori
I've heard you start with
the one on the outside.
[10:05] Izumi
Yum!
[10:09] Shikimori
Izumi-san...
[10:11] Shikimori
Your eyes are always
glimmering like a child's.
[10:17] Shikimori
Aw, I made you self-conscious.
[10:20] Izumi
Did I get carried away?
[10:22] Shikimori
Don't worry yourself.
[10:27] Shikimori
When I'm with you, Izumi-san,
[10:30] Shikimori
all kinds of things seem
prettier than usual to me.
[10:37] Shikimori
So I have to wonder sometimes...
[10:40] Shikimori
How beautiful must the world
look through your eyes?
[10:47] Shikimori
You know?
[10:48] Izumi
Y-You're exaggerating.
[10:51] Izumi
Wh-What do I do?
[10:53] Izumi
I can't even tell how
the food tastes anymore!
[10:58] Shikimori
Hey, Izumi-san...
[11:01] Shikimori
What do you see in my eyes?
[11:06] Izumi
Well, uh...
[11:13] Izumi
M-Me?
[11:14] Shikimori
That's right.
[11:16] Shikimori
You're all I'm ever looking at, Izumi-san.
[11:21] Izumi
She's just not letting up with the overkill!
[11:25] Izumi
Well, for me, too...
[11:27] Izumi
The most b-beautiful thing I see... is you.
[11:35] Shikimori
Uh...
[11:40] Waitress
I'll take any dishes you're finished with.
[11:43] Izu/Shiki
Okay!
[11:45] Izumi
Whew, I'm stuffed.
[11:47] Shikimori
Full-course meals really are a lot of food.
[11:51] Izumi
We still have some time.
Is there anywhere you want to go?
[12:04] Izumi
Shikimori-san?
[12:07] Shikimori
I want...
[12:08] Shikimori
t-to do what they did in the commercial!
[12:18] Izumi
Okay, sure.
[12:23] Shikimori
Huh?!
SIGN To a world of dreams
SIGN with the one you love
[12:28] Shikimori
A-Are you sure about this?
[12:31] Shikimori
Y-You agreed so readily...
[12:34] Izumi
Yeah. Let's not waste any time.
[12:36] Shikimori
Right here?!
[12:38] Izumi
Your hand.
[12:42] Shikimori
Hohay...
[12:47] Izumi
So... how do I escort you, exactly?
[12:51] Shikimori
Huh?
[12:52] Izumi
Huh? Well, when you said
"what they did in the commercial,"
[12:56] Izumi
you meant after the little girl's
parents take her hands, didn't you?
[13:00] Shikimori
Yes...
[13:02] Izumi
So the part where the old man
escorts the old lady, right?
[13:07] Izumi
Wait, that's not what you meant?!
[13:09] Izumi
Sorry! Um, then which part did you mean?
[13:13] Shikimori
This is fun in its own way, so it's fine...
[13:17] Shikimori
Let's go somewhere we can just talk awhile.
[13:22] Izumi
O-Okay. Let's find a place with
a nice view of the sunset.
[13:26] Shikimori
Be sure to escort me properly, my prince.
[13:30] Izumi
R-Right!
[13:32] Izumi
Let's go.
[13:39] Izumi
What was it she really wanted to do, though?
[13:44] Izumi
At the end of that commercial, I think...
[13:50] Izumi
Sh-She couldn't have meant...
[13:53] Worker
Off you go!
[13:59] Shikimori
This view is really great.
[14:03] Shikimori
It's beautiful.
[14:05] Izumi
Y-Yeah, it is.
[14:08] Izumi
What now?
[14:09] Izumi
Since I figured out what she meant about
the commercial, I'm all nervous...
[14:16] Izumi
Oh, I know! We haven't taken a picture
yet today. Let's get one!
[14:20] Shikimori
Good idea.
[14:22] Izumi
Here we go.
[14:24] Izumi
Is the background in it?
[14:27] Izumi
Okay, say cheese—
[14:29] Izumi
Huh?!
[14:30] Izumi
Wait, why...
[14:35] PA
Attention, guests.
[14:37] PA
The park is currently
experiencing a power outage.
[14:41] PA
Please bear with us until power is restored.
[14:43] Izumi
There goes my bad luck!
And our gorgeous nighttime scenery!
[14:47] Shikimori
The boat stopped, too...
[14:50] Sizumi
Are you okay, Shikimori-san?
[14:52] Shikimori
I'm just fine.
[14:54] Shikimori
Here.
[14:57] Izumi
Thanks.
[14:59] Shikimori
The other boats have lights.
[15:02] Shikimori
We can use our smartphones, too.
[15:05] Izumi
Good idea.
[15:07] Izumi
Wow...
[15:09] Izumi
It really is pitch black.
[15:11] Shikimori
I can't see anything but the moon.
[15:16] Izumi
I'm sorry. I never dreamed this would happen.
[15:21] Izumi
I hope they get the power back on soon.
[15:25] Shikimori
But...
[15:30] Izumi
Wha—
[15:34] Shikimori
Now it really is just the two of us.
[15:37] Izumi
See?! This is what I'm talking about!
[15:40] Izumi
You're just like a prince!
How can you do that so naturally?!
[15:44] Shikimori
Does it make you happy?
[15:45] Izumi
Incredibly!
[15:47] Shikimori
I'm glad, then.
[15:52] Izumi
It's kind of weird, isn't it?
[15:56] Izumi
I can't see anything but you here.
[16:00] Shikimori
Yeah...
[16:02] Shikimori
It's like being in a dream.
[16:07] Shikimori
For just this moment, there's nothing
else to steal your attention,
[16:13] Shikimori
so you're looking only at me.
[16:19] Shikimori
If I could have dreams like this,
I wouldn't want to wake up.
[16:24] Shikimori
What if you end up drifting
far away from me?
[16:32] Izumi
What can I do...
[16:34] Izumi
to make you feel at ease?
[16:46] Shikimori
Careful—
[16:47] Izumi
I love you.
[16:52] Izumi
I love you.
[16:54] Izumi
I'm in love with you, Shikimori-san.
[16:58] Izumi
I'll stay with you forever.
[17:01] Izumi
So please don't worry anymore.
[17:15] Shikimori
I'm really...
[17:18] Shikimori
no match for you.
[17:22] Izumi
Shikimori-san, the lights are back.
[17:24] Shikimori
Let me stay like this a bit longer.
[17:29] Izumi
I guess she doesn't want to wake up
from the dream just yet.
[17:37] Izumi
Sh-Shikimori-san...
[17:39] Shikimori
Also, I didn't mean for what
I said to turn that serious.
[17:44] Izumi
Huh? Y-You didn't?
[17:47] Shikimori
But right now...
[17:52] Shikimori
I'm happier than I'd be in any dream.
[17:56] Izumi
Good.
[18:11] Inuzuka
Hey, Izumi...
[18:13] Inuzuka
Why do you look like some
modern art installment?
[18:18] Izumi
I didn't think about it until I was
in the bath after I got home last night...
[18:22] Inuzuka
Hey, you listening?
[18:23] Izumi
But...
[18:25] Izumi
How could I have done
something so assertive?!
[18:30] Inuzuka
You can twist yourself up even more?!
[18:33] Nekozaki
Come on, tell us!
[18:36] Nekozaki
We know something happened, Micchon!
[18:38] Hachimitsu
You're better off just spilling now.
[18:41] Shikimori
R-R-Really, nothing happened at all.
[18:45] Hachimitsu
Yeah, you're a lousy liar.
[18:48] Nekozaki
She's not talking, Inspector.
[18:51] Nekozaki
Clearly, there's been some
sort of development.
[18:53] Hachimitsu
Hmm... Silence in this case
can only mean one thing.
[18:58] Hachimitsu
You kissed, didn't you?
[18:59] Nekozaki
What?!
[19:04] Nekozaki
You k-k-k-kissed him?!
[19:07] Hachimitsu
For real?!
[19:08] Shikimori
Not so loud!
[19:11] Nekozaki
Er... Oh?
[19:14] Nekozaki
W-Would you mind explaining
in a bit more detail?
[19:18] Hachimitsu
Relax, Assistant Inspector.
[19:20] Shikimori
We had dinner at a really
upscale restaurant,
[19:23] Shikimori
so the mood was right.
Then we took a gondola ride...
[19:27] Nekozaki
Uh-huh...
[19:28] Shikimori
But the power went out.
Everything went dark.
[19:30] Hachimitsu
His bad luck never fails.
[19:32] Shikimori
And that's when Izumi-san...
[19:37] Shikimori
k-kissed my cheek.
[19:40] Nekozaki
We're done here.
[19:41] Hachimitsu
That stupid Izumi wimped out.
[19:43] Shikimori
N-No, he didn't!
[19:45] Shikimori
He, well... seemed to think
I was feeling uneasy,
[19:49] Shikimori
so he did it to comfort me.
[19:51] Shikimori
He was very sweet.
[19:54] Nekozaki
I see.
[19:55] Shikimori
And also...
[19:57] Nekozaki
Uh-huh?
[19:58] Shikimori
I've been wanting to get as close
as possible to Izumi-san lately,
[20:02] Shikimori
so I was being pretty proactive, but...
[20:05] Nekozaki
Wait, wait! Don't suddenly go all carnivore!
[20:08] Hachimitsu
The warm and fuzzies just
instantly burned to ash.
[20:12] Shikimori
I was panicking because
I made him worry about me.
[20:16] Shikimori
I was ashamed of myself for getting
distracted by a bunch of superficial stuff.
[20:20] Nekozaki
Micchon, hang on a—
[20:22] Shikimori
So I've made up my mind.
[20:23] Shikimori
I'm going to become
as open-hearted as Izumi-san.
[20:29] Nekozaki
R-Really? Well, your love is
plenty big enough already...
[20:34] Hachimitsu
So are your fluctuations.
[20:37] Nekozaki
What do you think, Hachimitsu?
[20:39] Hachimitsu
I can't tell if they're kindergarteners
or an elderly couple.
[20:44] Inuzuka
Just hang on. I'll get out of that knot.
[20:45] Hachimitsu
But hey, as long as they're happy,
[20:50] Hachimitsu
it's all good.
SIGN SEE YOU~
[22:32] Izumi
Shikimori-san!
[22:38] Izumi
Good morning, Shikimori-san.
[22:40] Shikimori
Good morning, Izumi-san.
[22:43] Izumi
My girlfriend is super cute, and also...
[22:57] Izumi
incredibly cool.
[23:03] Shikimori
Shall we?
[23:05] Izumi
That was amazing, Shikimori-san!
[23:07] Izumi
You got it in one shot!
[23:09] Izumi
Just incredible! You're so cool!
[23:11] Shikimori
I think that's enough, Izumi-san...
[23:15] Shikimori
Come on, let's go.
