**[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.
***SIGN*** Sing "Yesterday" for Me
**[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.

**[11:04] Minato**
Uozumi-san, are you dating Morinome-sensei?
**[11:12] Rikuo**
Did Haru tell you that?
**[11:14] Minato**
No.
**[11:17] Rikuo**
There's nothing between us.
**[11:19] Minato**
Then what about Nonaka-san?
**[11:23] Minato**
How do you feel about Nonaka-san?
**[11:27] Rikuo**
What? Well...
**[11:29] Rikuo**
W-We're friends, I guess.
**[11:34] Rikuo**
A-Anyway, what are you going to do
for the competition coming up?
**[11:39] Minato**
The one here?
**[11:40] Minato**
I'm not competing.
**[11:42] Minato**
When I submit a piece, it'll be at the
appropriate time and the appropriate place.
**[11:49] Rikuo**
*This kid...*
**[11:56] Haru**
Hey! Heading home?
**[11:59] Rikuo**
Yeah, that's right.
**[12:01] Haru**
Let's get something to eat, then.
**[12:04] Rikuo**
I'm going home.
**[12:07] Haru**
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.

Hey, I'm here.

Haru.
**[20:36] Rikuo**
Minato quit working here.
**[20:37] Rikuo**
He's gone now.
**[20:53] Haru**
That photo came out so nice, didn't it?
**[20:59] Haru**
Am I this pretty?
**[21:05] A**
Uozumi.
**[21:06] A**
I heard you bought a new camera.
**[21:08] Rikuo**
Oh, director.
**[21:10] Rikuo**
It's second-hand, though.
**[21:13] A**
Take lots of pictures.
**[21:15] Rikuo**
I will.
**[21:18] Haru**
I see.
**[21:20] Haru**
Let's see what you submitted.
**[21:25] Haru**
This is a nice photo.
**[21:27] Haru**
He looks better than in real life.
**[21:30] Haru**
Even though you didn't win.
**[21:37] Haru**
I guess it depends on the model.
**[21:39] Rikuo**
Shut up.
