[00:06] Rikuo
    Fukuda hooked me up with
    this job at a gallery.
[00:09] Rikuo
    Aside from working with the exhibits,
    I'm also doing part-time office work.
[00:15] A
    Uozumi-kun, which of these three
    photos do you think is the best?
[00:22] Rikuo
    This one?
[00:24] A
    Nope.
[00:26] A
    This one.
[00:28] A
    It's subtle, but the whites
    in this one are overexposed.
[00:32] A
    This one's too dark.
[00:39] Rikuo
    They look the same to me.
[00:41] A
    Assessing the photos as they come
    out of the lab is part of our job.
[00:45] A
    Having you able to do that will help me a lot.
[00:48] Rikuo
    Okay.
[00:50] A
    All right, go get the rest of the photos for me.
[00:52] Rikuo
    Yes, sir.
[00:59] Minato
    Pardon me.
[01:01] Minato
    I heard you're looking for part-time workers.
[01:04] Rikuo
    Oh, are you the student
    from Toubi University?
[01:07] Minato
    Yes.
[01:08] Rikuo
    Okay, I'll be back.

[01:33] Minato
    Sorry for coming in unannounced.
[01:36] Rikuo
    Nah.
[01:37] Rikuo
    You're joining the staff here, too, aren't you?
[01:39] Minato
    Yes.
[01:40] Minato
    Uozumi-san, was it?
[01:42] Minato
    The director told me about you.
[01:44] Minato
    I'm Minato.
[01:46] Minato
    Nice to meet you.
[01:47] Rikuo
    You're in college?
[01:48] Minato
    Yes.
[01:49] Minato
    I'll be in my second year.
[01:52] Minato
    Is there any kind of focus to the works here?
[01:56] Rikuo
    We deal with just about everything,
[01:59] ---
    but we tend to work with
    young photographers a lot.
[02:08] Haru
    Rikuo!
[02:10] Haru
    Let's go eat.
[02:12] Rikuo
    No one said you could come in.
[02:16] ---
    What?
[02:17] Haru
    I came here to make sure you're
    doing all right at your new job.
[02:22] Rikuo
    What are you, my mom?
[02:24] Haru
    Come on, I'm hungry.
[02:26] Haru
    You still have time until your
    convenience store shift, right?
[02:29] Rikuo
    Let go!
[02:30] Rikuo
    You're in my way!
[02:30] Minato
    Nonaka...
[02:32] Minato
    Nonaka Haru?
[02:35] Haru
    Um...
[02:38] Haru
    Have we met somewhere before?
[02:44] Haru
    Oh, I remember now!
[02:46] Haru
    You're Minato Kouichi!
[02:49] Minato
    We were in the same
    third-year class in high school.
[02:53] Minato
    I never really stood out, so...
[02:56] Haru
    Sorry.
[02:57] Haru
    I dropped out partway, remember?
[02:59] Haru
    Plus, you have a beard now.
[03:01] Haru
    How was I supposed to recognize you?
[03:04] Rikuo
    What kind of photos do you take, Minato-kun?
[03:07] Minato
    Documentary photos.
[03:09] Rikuo
    Do you hope to go into journalism, then?
[03:11] Minato
    Yes.
[03:12] Rikuo
    What about portraits or landscapes?
[03:14] Minato
    I don't take portraits.
[03:17] Minato
    Portraits push the photographer's
    personal sentiments onto the viewer.
[03:21] Minato
    I don't like them.
[03:25] Minato
    Landscape photos usually aren't
    anything more than pretty.
[03:28] Minato
    I'm not interested.
[03:30] Minato
    Documentary photos clearly have
    a way of speaking to the viewer.
[03:34] Haru
    Lightning flip!
[03:36] Minato
    They have substance.
[03:39] Minato
    So, Uozumi-san, what kind
    of camera do you use?
[03:45] Rikuo
    What kind?
[03:46] Rikuo
    I just use the cheap, normal
    one I bought in high school.
[03:49] Minato
    The camera's quality isn't what matters
    in a photo, so I think that's fine.
[03:55] Minato
    I used to be obsessed with
    Leicas in the beginning,
[03:59] ---
    but I'm starting to get a
    sense of which ones suit me.
[04:05] Minato
    Pardon me.
[04:07] Minato
    I have to get to my next job.
[04:10] Minato
    Please invite me again some time.
[04:12] Haru
    Bye-bye.
[04:16] Minato
    Nonaka-san...
[04:17] Haru
    Yes?
[04:19] Minato
    Where do you work?
[04:21] Rikuo
    He's so damn pretentious!
[04:24] Rikuo
    I have to work with him?
[04:26] Haru
    Come on, now.
[04:27] Haru
    He's pretty well-grounded, to be
    able to speak his mind to his senior.
[04:33] Haru
    And he's kind of good-looking, too.
[04:36] Rikuo
    I don't care about your tastes.
[04:41] Haru
    Stop complaining and take care of him.
[04:45] Haru
    You're his big bro, aren't you?
[04:46] Rikuo
    That's exactly what makes
    this such a pain in the ass!
[04:53] Haru
    Welcome.
[04:55] Haru
    Huh?
[04:57] Minato
    Good evening.
[04:58] Haru
    Minato-kun.
[05:00] Kyouko
    Your friend, Haru-chan?
[05:02] Haru
    Former classmate.
[05:06] Haru
    Welcome.
[05:08] Haru
    On your way home from the gallery?
[05:10] Rikuo
    I had work at a publishing firm today.
[05:13] Haru
    This late?
[05:16] Rikuo
    Publishing firms are nocturnal.
[05:26] Rikuo
    One blend, please.
[05:29] Takanori
    Come on, Uozumi.
[05:32] Takanori
    Let's play mahjong.
[05:35] Rikuo
    Let go of me!
[05:36] Rikuo
    I want to go home!
[05:44] Shinako
    The breeze is so nice.
[05:48] Rikuo
    I don't see you get drunk very often.
[05:55] Shinako
    I just sort of felt like drinking today.
[06:02] Rikuo
    Did something happen?
[06:06] Shinako
    It's nothing like that.
[06:10] Shinako
    It's just that once summer
    is over, autumn comes.
[06:15] Shinako
    Then it's winter, and then it's spring.
[06:22] Shinako
    I just started thinking about that.
[06:28] Shinako
    In other words,
[06:32] ---
    I've stopped going around in circles.
[06:40] Rikuo
    Well, let's get home.
[06:45] Haru
    Thanks for walking me home.
[06:49] Minato
    Nah, I was on my way home anyway.
[06:53] Haru
    Oh, that's right.
[06:54] Haru
    You've always been like that.
[06:57] Haru
    I mean, you're kind of quiet.
[06:59] Minato
    Is that how I come across?
[07:01] Haru
    Well, I've never talked to you before.
[07:05] Haru
    You were fighting with Rikuo the other day.
[07:08] Haru
    That surprised me.
[07:10] Minato
    I wasn't really trying to fight him.
[07:12] Minato
    I'm not that gung-ho.
[07:14] Haru
    Are you sure?
[07:17] Minato
    Also, we talked once before.
[07:21] Minato
    At the cultural festival in our second year...
[07:27] Minato
    What's wrong?
[07:27] Haru
    Nothing.
[07:28] Haru
    Let's go.
[07:30] Shinako
    Nonaka-san?
[07:33] Rikuo
    Haru?
[07:36] Haru
    Good evening.
[07:41] Minato
    Hello.
SIGN    Sing "Yesterday" for Me
[07:52] Shinako
    We were out drinking with
    our friends from college.
[07:56] Shinako
    W-We're just on our way home.
[07:58] Haru
    Oh, yeah?
[08:01] Shinako
    I hope Nonaka-san didn't get the wrong idea.
[08:05] Rikuo
    Later.
[08:07] Haru
    Let's go, Minato-kun.
[08:10] Rikuo
    Why is he with Haru?
[08:13] Rikuo
    I mean, not that it matters to me...
[08:17] Haru
    Why didn't he ask about Minato-kun?
[08:20] Haru
    Is it because he's with Shinako-sensei?
[08:22] Haru
    Or because he doesn't care?
[08:26] Haru
    Either way, it pisses me off.
[08:31] Haru
    Come with me.
SIGN    Orange juice
[08:41] Minato
    That was Morinome-sensei, wasn't it?
[08:44] Minato
    Is she acquainted with Uozumi-san?
[08:46] Haru
    Yeah.
[08:47] Haru
    They were in the same year
    in college, apparently.
[08:56] Minato
    I was under the impression
    that he was dating you.
[08:59] Haru
    Rikuo and Shinako-sensei
    aren't going out or anything.
[09:08] Haru
    It wasn't my plan to become a woman
    who doesn't know when to give up.
[09:14] Minato
    There's nothing you can do about it.
[09:16] Minato
    The one who falls in love
    loses in these situations.
[09:19] Haru
    Exactly! That's exactly it!
[09:23] Haru
    Are you in a relationship
    with anyone, Minato-kun?
[09:31] Minato
    I had a crush back in high school.
[09:34] Minato
    We ran into each other again recently,
[09:36] ---
    but she's already in love with someone else.
[09:39] Haru
    Oh, yeah? We're the same, then.
[09:42] Haru
    I feel a little better.
[09:46] Minato
    She's so dense.
[09:49] Haru
    Thanks for hanging out with me today.
[09:52] Haru
    That was a good distraction.
[09:55] Minato
    Thanks for the drink, too.
[09:58] Haru
    I live nearby, so I'll be fine from here.
[10:01] Haru
    See you!
[10:07] (Flashback) Haru
    Hey...
[10:09] (Flashback) Haru
    Can I have this photo?
[10:13] (Flashback) Haru
    This one.
[10:19] (Flashback) Minato
    Sure, I guess.
[10:21] (Flashback) Haru
    Thanks! Bye!
[10:25] Minato
    We ended up in the same third-year class,
[10:29] Minato
    but I never understood why Nonaka-san
    wanted such a lonely-looking photo.
[10:38] Minato
    I didn't think I'd ever see her again.
[10:42] A
    All right, I'm going to a meeting.
[10:45] A
    You guys hold down the fort.
[10:47] A
    Also, both of you ought to
    submit something for this.

    I'm going home.

    What? But I was waiting for you.
[12:09] Haru
    You could at least walk home with me.
[12:12] Rikuo
    Why don't you walk home with that other guy?
[12:17] Haru
    Say what? You mean Minato-kun?
[12:20] Haru
    Are you upset about what
    happened the other day?
[12:25] Rikuo
    Not at all.
[12:26] Rikuo
    It has nothing to do with me.
[12:30] Haru
    What the hell?!
[12:33] Haru
    You're so annoying!
[13:07] Kyouko
    Minato-kun's here every day lately.
[13:11] Haru
    He is.
[13:13] Kyouko
    He doesn't seem like a coffee lover.
[13:15] Kyouko
    He uses lots of milk and sugar.
[13:18] Haru
    What are you trying to say?
[13:21] Kyouko
    I wonder what the coffee's an excuse for.
[13:32] Haru
    Ten points deducted.
[13:35] Haru
    'Sup?
[13:37] Rikuo
    Oh, it's you.
[13:39] Haru
    What do you mean, "Oh, it's you"?
[13:53] Haru
    The gallery, the convenience store...
[13:55] Haru
    You're working so hard.
    What's gotten into you?
[13:58] Rikuo
    Nothing.
[14:00] Haru
    I heard from Kinoshita-san
[14:02] ---
    that there's something expensive
    you're trying to buy, Uozumi-san.
[14:06] Rikuo
    Huh?
[14:07] Haru
    Could it be...
[14:09] Haru
    Something that costs about
    three months' worth of wages?
[14:12] ---
    Huh?!
[14:13] Haru
    Our engagement ring!
[14:16] Rikuo
    What?!
[14:24] Haru
    I'm going to work now.
[14:26] Haru
    Later.
[14:28] Haru
    Oh, and my ring size is 15!
[14:42] Haru
    Bye.
[14:45] Haru
    Thanks for waiting.
[15:00] Haru
    Sorry for making you walk
    me home all the time.
[15:04] Minato
    Don't worry about it.
[15:06] Minato
    I'm on my way home, anyway.
[15:09] Haru
    Is this weird?
[15:11] Haru
    This situation isn't weird, is it?
[15:13] Haru
    No, I probably don't need
    to think too much about it.
[15:17] Minato
    That crow's always with you, huh?
[15:21] Haru
    Oh, him?
[15:23] Haru
    I kept feeding him, and he got attached to me.
[15:27] Haru
    Do you have any pets, Minato-kun?
[15:29] Minato
    I used to have a huge mixed
    breed dog at my parents' place.
[15:35] Minato
    When we first got it,
[15:37] ---
    I couldn't get used to the fact
    that it was bigger than me.
[15:40] Minato
    But as I fed it and walked it and
    hung out with it all the time,
[15:45] ---
    I realized that was all right, too.
[15:48] Haru
    Like, it grew on you?
[15:51] Minato
    I realized it wasn't a bad
    way to build a relationship.
[16:00] Haru
    I guess that's a thing that happens.
[16:07] Minato
    If it's all right with you...
[16:10] Minato
    Could we hang out together all day tomorrow?
[16:17] Haru
    I came here on a field trip
    in elementary school.
[16:21] Haru
    We got to tour that boat, too.
[16:24] Minato
    Same here.
[16:26] Minato
    I begged my parents to buy me
    a plastic model of it to build.
[16:31] Haru
    It's been a while since I saw the sea.
[16:34] Minato
    It's a bit cold this time of the year.
[16:39] Minato
    I come here occasionally.
[16:42] Minato
    Sometimes, when I have something to think
    about or feel down about something,
[16:46] ---
    I'm here all day.
[16:49] Haru
    You only brought your
    instant camera with you?
[16:51] Haru
    Where's your bigger one?
[16:55] Minato
    This camera takes fun photos sometimes.
[16:58] Minato
    I was in the mood for this one today.
[17:07] Haru
    There's nothing but seagulls
    around this time of year.
[17:13] Minato
    Nonaka-san...
[17:15] Haru
    Yeah?
[17:19] Minato
    Would you please go out with me?
[17:34] Minato
    I'm sure you've kind of noticed,
[17:37] Minato
    but you didn't seem to hate
    me for it much, either.
[17:43] Minato
    Of course, I know you like Uozumi-san.
[17:50] Haru
    Rikuo's an asshole.
[17:54] Haru
    He doesn't think about how I feel.
[17:59] Haru
    He think I'm settling for being the backup.
[18:04] Haru
    I hate that bastard!
[18:14] Haru
    I always worry that I might end up
    never being more than the backup.
[18:21] Haru
    But I think I'll regret it if I give up.
[18:26] Haru
    Even if I never end up being his number one.
[18:29] Haru
    I just kind of fell in love with him
    by accident, so I can't help it now.
[18:33] Haru
    I have to take it as far as I can,
    or I'll have been lying to myself.
[18:39] Haru
    So...
[18:40] Haru
    I'm sorry.
[18:46] Minato
    It's okay.
[18:47] Minato
    I knew the answer.
[18:50] Minato
    Now I have nothing left to regret.
[18:56] Minato
    I quit college.
[18:59] Minato
    I've been thinking this whole time...
[19:02] Minato
    I went to college, found work
    through my seniors, and learned a lot,
[19:08] ---
    but it just didn't click for me.
[19:10] Minato
    I want to get closer to the
    photos that I want to take.
[19:16] Minato
    If I don't act now, I might end up
    stuck for the rest of my life.
[19:22] Haru
    What are you going to do now?
[19:25] Minato
    I'm going to leave Japan with my
    camera and wander for a while.
[19:32] Minato
    I knew I'd regret it if I never told you
[19:36] ---
    that I've liked you since high school.
[19:51] Minato
    It's getting cold.
[19:54] Minato
    Should we head home?
[19:57] Minato
    Thanks for hanging out with me today.
[20:01] Minato
    Can we part ways here?
[20:03] Haru
    Yeah.
[20:04] Minato
    Okay, bye.
[20:05] Haru
    Hey, give me a hand shake.
[20:13] Minato
    See you around someday.
