[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.
