[00:02] Akemi
    Just like how girls tend to push
    the like button when they see
[00:05] Akemi
    a picture of a delicious-looking
    pancake at a stylish cafe,
[00:08] Akemi
    the old men at a snack bar
    tend to clap for any singer
[00:12] Akemi
    who sings a classic song, even if they don't know the song.
[00:15] Akemi
    And what else...
[00:17] Akemi
    You know how, back when you were in school,
[00:20] Akemi
    you'd go over to a friend's house afterwards?
[00:23] Akemi
    But once you become an adult,
    that can't happen as easily.
[00:27] Akemi
    You need some kind of excuse
    in order to hang out with them...
[00:30] Akemi
    And even so, it takes a while until
    you finally meet them for that date.
[00:35] Akemi
    Well, a snack bar gives you
    that same feeling you had
[00:39] Akemi
    back when you were in school, when you
    could just invite someone over to chill.
[00:42] Akemi
    Yes, a snack bar acts as a tree where
    adults can perch and rest their wings.
[00:47] Akemi
    It's that sort of bar... so...
[00:52] Akemi
    I hate to break it to you, but I don't think
    it's the type of tavern you're looking for.

[02:37] Hero
    I'll start with a warrior.
[02:38] Akemi
    Don't say it like you're asking
    for a beer or something!
[02:40] Akemi
    We're not that type of tavern!
[02:43] Hero
    That... type of...?
[02:45] Akemi
    I'm sayin' you can't form a party
    for your adventures here!
[02:49] Akemi
    At most, you can only find drinking buddies!
[02:51] Hero
    Dragon...
[02:53] Hero
    Quest...?
[02:54] Akemi
    Don't ask about something I didn't say!
[02:57] Hero
    Well, that's very strange...
[02:59] Hero
    I'm unable to reunite with my stray
    friends even though I'm at the bar...
[03:02] Hero
    Did I miscast a teleportation spell?
[03:07] Akemi
    I see...
[03:09] Akemi
    The scenario is that you were
    summoned to the present...
[03:14] Akemi
    Now I know the situation, but...!
[03:17] Akemi
    Mama, isn't there another store you
    could introduce this young man to
[03:19] Akemi
    that caters to this sort of thing?
[03:23] Akemi
    Oh, it's no use, she's glitching.
[03:26] Akemi
    As you can see,
    we can't introduce you to anyone
[03:29] Akemi
    willing to go along with your gameplay.
[03:32] Akemi
    The only thing left is to go ask at
    the Susukino's free information center.
[03:37] Hero
    No...
[03:38] Hero
    It seems I have already found a friend.
[03:41] Akemi
    Huh?
[03:42] Hero
    Hey, bar lady!
[03:44] Hero
    Would you like to come on a journey
    with me to defeat the Demon King?
[03:47] Akemi
    Oh, no no no, defeating a Demon King...
[03:49] Akemi
    That's impossible.
    Besides, I'm working right now.
[03:52] Hero
    Maybe a little after you've closed shop?
[03:56] Akemi
    Now you're just asking me
    out after work, buddy!
[03:58] Hero
    Even if it's just for a little puff-puff?
[04:00] Akemi
    You're going to ask me that now?
[04:03] Akemi
    In a way, you really are a brave hero.
[04:05] Akemi
    Oh, but what is this feeling...
[04:08] Akemi
    Little by little, my heart is being charmed...
[04:12] Akemi
    His eyes!
[04:15] Akemi
    A man's ambitious eyes...
SIGN    The men I fell in love with in the past
[04:17] Akemi
    The same eyes of the men
    I fell in love with in the past!
[04:21] Basue
    The Chosen!
SIGN    The Chosen
[04:27] Akemi
    Cock-a-doodle-doo!
[04:30] Akemi
    That was a close one!
[04:32] Akemi
    I was about to be fooled by a loser again...
[04:36] Akemi
    You sound like an NPC villager who only
    knows how to repeat the same phrase.
[04:39] Hero
    I am not a villager!
[04:41] Hero
    I am the hero!
[04:43] Akemi
    Shut up already!
[04:44] Akemi
    Nobody wants to hear about
    heroes summoned to the present!
[04:47] Akemi
    The current trend is the opposite!
[04:48] Akemi
    It's people from the present
    going to another world
[04:50] Akemi
    and becoming unrivaled using
    their modern knowledge!
[04:51] Akemi
    No, that's getting old too!
[04:53] Akemi
    Now it's ones where the hero gets banished?
[04:55] Akemi
    Or maybe the hero's a villainess?
[04:56] Akemi
    I don't know.
[04:57] Akemi
    Just go ask Kadokawa about that shit, okay?!
[04:59] Akemi
    Either way, you're being troublesome!
[05:01] Akemi
    With people like you around,
    nobody's going to come to our bar,
[05:04] Akemi
    and nobody will watch our anime!
[05:05] Akemi
    What do you mean,
    "nobody watches it right now?"
[05:08] Akemi
    Now, come on. If you understand,
    please start heading to Susukino.
[05:11] Akemi
    As Godiego sings in their lyrics,
    head on to Gandhara your utopia.
[05:15] Hero
    Susu... kino...?
[05:17] Akemi
    Go 5 stations on the Namboku
    subway line towards Sapporo.
[05:21] Hero
    Subway...?
[05:22] Hero
    What are you even talking about?
[05:24] Akemi
    Trust me, trust me!
[05:34] Akemi
    Oh... The hero didn't come to us...
[05:37] Akemi
    Snack Basue is what got
    relocated to another world...
SIGN    (Welcome to the Lifestyle
     of the Wonderful Other World)
[05:46] Akemi
    ...is what happened.
[05:48] Yamada
    How were you able to come back?
[05:50] Tatsu-ni
    So that's why?
[05:53] Akemi
    Yeah. Ever since then,
    Mama has been glitching.
[05:58] Tatsu-ni
    Did you try blowing into her?
[06:06] Akemi
    All set.
[06:07] Yamada
    Wait, what just happened?
[06:14] Akemi
    Oh, good, I wasn't sure what I would do
    if it was him again...
[06:18] Tatsu-ni
    Is he someone from around here?
[06:19] Akemi
    No, I've never seen him before.
    He must be a first-time customer.
[06:24] Yamada
    It's a little embarrassing
    to see someone wearing a jersey
[06:26] Yamada
    when they aren't from this
    neighborhood, don't you think?
[06:30] Natsuki
    Did I... really...
[06:34] Natsuki
    just get summoned to another world?
[06:37] Akemi
    Go home!
[06:38] Natsuki
    Wha?
[06:40] Akemi
    What would make you think of this snack
    bar as something from an alternate world?
[06:43] Tatsu-ni
    Wait, Akemi-chan.
[06:46] Tatsu-ni
    For those of us who are constantly
    working against the pressures of reality,
[06:52] Tatsu-ni
    a snack bar is, in a sense,
     another world. Don't you think?
[06:55] Yamada
    Your face screams,
    "This is the coolest thing I've ever said!"
[06:59] Akemi
    Come to think of it,
[07:01] Akemi
    the dim lighting gives the illusion
    of a medieval fantasy world,
[07:05] Akemi
    you're encountering people
    you normally wouldn't meet,
[07:08] Akemi
    and you also get potions which drain your stamina
    and give you a debuff the next morning.
[07:14] Yamada
    Wait a minute. Is today the day everyone tries
    to say something smooth or something?
[07:20] Akemi
    Welcome to Snack Basue.
[07:22] Akemi
    I'm the junior hostess, Akemi.
[07:24] Akemi
    What is your name, sir?
[07:27] Natsuki
    My name is Natsuki S—
[07:29] Akemi
    Natsuki-san, it is!
[07:30] Natsuki
    Uh... yes.
[07:32] Akemi
    I haven't seen anyone like you before,
    Natsuki-san. Are you from around here?
[07:36] Natsuki
    Yeah.
[07:37] Yamada
    I shouldn't be the one to talk, but what
    were you thinking coming into this bar?
[07:41] Akemi
    How rude!
[07:43] Natsuki
    Oh, no. I was roaming around the neighborhood,
SIGN    Snack Basue
[07:45] Natsuki
    trying to find my way to another world...
[07:47] Natsuki
    Your door looked the most otherworldly
    of any of them.
[07:50] Yamada
    Otherworldly...?
[07:52] Tatsu-ni
    I understand...
[07:53] Yamada
    What?
[07:54] Tatsu-ni
    For those of us who are constantly
    working against the pressures of reality,
[07:59] Tatsu-ni
    a snack bar...
[08:00] Yamada
    You already said that!
    With that same exact look on your face!
[08:04] Akemi
    Even so, in order to go to an alternate world,
[08:07] Akemi
    there's certain criteria you have to meet.
[08:09] Yamada
    Is that so...
[08:10] Akemi
    First off,
[08:12] Akemi
    you have to be kind of a loser.
[08:15] Akemi
    Yep, you meet that one.
[08:17] Yamada
    That's pretty harsh to say
    to a first-time customer.
[08:20] Akemi
    And what do you do for a living?
[08:22] Natsuki
    Unemployed.
[08:24] Akemi
    The second criteria was to either
    work for an abusive corporation
[08:27] Akemi
    or be an unemployed hikikomori...
    so you meet that one too.
[08:31] Yamada
    Oh, it's getting worse.
[08:33] Akemi
    Yamada and Tatsu-ni, you both
    meet the criteria too,
[08:36] Akemi
    so you guys could make it to the other world.
[08:38] Tatsu-ni
    My job's not that bad.
[08:40] Akemi
    You can be a special case,
    since you're tired of reality.
[08:44] Tatsu-ni
    That's not a special case
    I'm particularly happy about.
[08:47] Akemi
    And, now you've made it to the other world,
     what are your worries, Natsuki-san?
[08:52] Natsuki
    Well, it's...
[08:53] Natsuki
    How do you actually get to another world?
[08:56] Akemi
    I thought you came here because
    you thought this was another world?
[08:59] Natsuki
    Nah, not to a snack bar,
    but to a real alternate world.
[09:03] Akemi
    This conversation is going nowhere...
[09:05] Yamada
    You guys are at a point
    where neither of you make sense.
[09:11] Akemi
    A real alternate world, huh...
[09:14] Akemi
    Wasn't getting hit by a truck
    one of the ways to go?
[09:18] Tatsu-ni
    If it didn't work, it'd be a disaster.
[09:20] Yamada
    It would be a disaster regardless.
[09:23] Natsuki
    Nah, nothing that's going
    to be painful, please.
[09:26] Natsuki
    Besides, dying would be a burden
     on my family too, so that's out...
[09:29] Yamada
    The nerve...
[09:30] Natsuki
    I don't have any friends who
    would even attend my funeral,
[09:33] Natsuki
    and wouldn't you feel bad for your family,
    who's left to deal with the mess?
[09:36] Yamada
    Why would anyone who's thought it through
    this much want to go to another world...?
[09:39] Akemi
    Yeah, what do you even want
    to do once you get there?
[09:43] Natsuki
    When I get to the other world,
    I can reset everything and start over!
[09:47] Natsuki
    Anything dumb I did in this world
    would never have happened!
[09:50] Tatsu-ni
    You're right. It'd be nice if all
    the results of the bad drinking and eating habits
[09:54] Tatsu-ni
    I had when I was young would disappear.
[09:57] Yamada
    Why don't you just exercise,
    go on a diet, and get back on track?!
[10:01] Natsuki and Tatsu-ni
    You really think people who could do that
    would want to go to another world?!
[10:04] Yamada
    No doubt, you guys are the type that
    even the other world wouldn't want.
[10:07] Akemi
    You can start over, huh?
[10:10] Akemi
    Do you really think so?
[10:12] Akemi
    You'll be thrown into a world
    where language and common sense
[10:14] Akemi
    are completely different
    from what you're used to.
[10:16] Akemi
    What a hassle, sheesh.
[10:19] Akemi
    You can't use your 10,000 yen!
[10:20] Item storekeeper
    If you can't pay in croaks, get outta here!
[10:23] Akemi
    It's so dirty!
[10:24] Innkeeper
    Shower? What's that?
[10:27] Rowdy man
    This is the beginning town.
[10:29] Akemi
    I want you to tell me something else.
[10:32] Rowdy man
    This is the beginning town.
[10:34] Yamada
    You look like you've actually
    experienced it or something.
[10:37] Akemi
    There's nothing great
    about alternate worlds.
[10:40] Akemi
    First off, do you really think you could
    start everything over if you went?
[10:45] Akemi
    You're going to end up making the same
    mistakes you did here in the other world,
[10:48] Akemi
    and in the end you'll just keep
    adding to your shame in the multiverse.
[10:53] Natsuki
    But everyone who goes to
    another world does great!
[10:57] Akemi
    That's only a small percentage!
[10:59] Natsuki
    A small percentage?
[11:01] Akemi
    That's right.
[11:02] Akemi
    What everyone is reading about,
    going to the other world and using cheats,
[11:05] Akemi
    and having harems and whatnot...
[11:08] Akemi
    Those are only a small percentage
     of cases where things happen
[11:09] Akemi
    to work out in their favor.
[11:10] Akemi
    Those are the only ones that get novelized.
[11:12] Akemi
    In reality, most of the people
    are miserable there!
[11:16] Natsuki
    Even so, if you're granted a cheat
    ability you could totally do it, right?
[11:20] Natsuki
    If I had special powers, I'd...
[11:22] Akemi
    You're taking it too lightly.
[11:23] Akemi
    Even if you did have a cheat ability,
[11:26] Akemi
    your hikikomori self would prevent you
    from making full use of it.
[11:31] Akemi
    I can see it now. You'll end up
    softly mumbling to yourself
[11:34] Akemi
    while an extrovert with mediocre abilities
    will take the spotlight and get the girl.
[11:39] Natsuki
    No way...
[11:41] Akemi
    So stop trying, and work hard
    in the real world.
[11:45] Yamada
    That's right. Perhaps find
    your passion in something...
[11:48] Akemi
    Yep, yep. You said it.
[11:52] Tatsu-ni
    I was thinking, I don't have
    a passion for anything either...
[11:55] Tatsu-ni
    But I'll keep that to myself.
[11:58] Basue
    Then why don't you try
    working hard for someone?
[12:03] Yamada
    She's still a little glitchy.
[12:05] Natsuki
    For someone?
[12:07] Basue
    That's right. You make it so that
    it's for someone other than yourself.
[12:11] Yamada
    That's true. You'd be more motivated to
    work hard for your family or a loved one.
[12:17] Natsuki
    But I don't have anyone like that...
[12:20] Tatsu-ni
    Then, since you're here,
    how about you work hard for Akemi-chan?
[12:26] Akemi
    Me?
[12:27] Tatsu-ni
    I figured, since you've been
    a hikikomori this whole time,
[12:29] Tatsu-ni
    there must be some kind of special bond
    between you and a woman you meet.
[12:33] Basue
    I'm a woman too, you know.
[12:36] Tatsu-ni
    That one's a little...
[12:37] Basue
    You damaged my self-esteem!
[12:41] Akemi
    Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt to have
    someone work hard for me.
[12:47] Akemi
    Actually, it feels really good.
[12:49] Akemi
    All right then, Natsuki-san, work hard for me
    and become a patron of this store!
[12:54] Natsuki
    For the junior hostess...
[12:57] Akemi
    You could call me Akemitan.
[12:59] Natsuki
    Akemitan.
[13:05] Natsuki
    Uh, no can do. I just thought it
    through and it's definitely impossible!
[13:08] Akemi
    Like I said, go home!
[13:10] Natsuki {background}
    Well, you're not a goddess
    or a queen, nor a half-elf!
[13:11] Tatsu-ni
    Is Shueisha cool with this segment?
[13:14] Yamada
    I can guarantee you Kadokawa's not.
[13:15] Akemi {background}
    I'm sorry, I have no idea
    what you're talking about!
[13:16] Tatsu-ni
    We could just apologize.
[13:17] Natsuki {background}
    Well, that sounded a bit spicy...
[13:17] Yamada
    Yes.
SIGN    (Let's meet at that place.)
[13:26] Akemi
    Daily life sure is the best...
[13:29] Tatsu-ni
    You said it.
[13:31] Kosame
    What happened?
[13:37] Akemi
    By the way...
[13:39] Akemi
    Don't you feel like going fishing?
[13:41] Tatsu-ni
    Yeah, that sounds nice... fishing...
[13:43] Akemi
    Oh, the fishing I'm talking about is, you know,
[13:46] Akemi
    the kind where you use a rod and
    a string as a tool to catch fish.
[13:50] Tatsu-ni
    That's exactly the kind I was thinking of.
[13:53] Akemi
    How about you, Kosame-chan?
[13:55] Akemi
    Are you interested?
[13:56] Kosame
    Yeah. It's nice to go once in a while.
[14:00] Akemi
    Right? I want to go fishing...
[14:04] Tatsu-ni
    It's nice, isn't it? Fishing...
[14:07] Akemi
    All right! Then...
[14:13] Akemi
    I want to go... fishing...
[14:16] Tatsu-ni
    Yeah, I wanna go... fishing...
[14:20] Kosame
    These two are just wishing for it
    and not bothering to make any plans!
[14:24] Akemi
    Tatsu-ni, please take me!
[14:26] Akemi
    If you have any leftover fishing accessories,
     please lend them to me!
[14:28] Akemi
    And not that dirty rod!
[14:30] Tatsu-ni
    Are you pretending I just said,
    "I've only got one rod for you to hold?"
[14:33] Akemi
    What kind of tiny-ass fish
    are you trying to catch with that rod?
[14:37] Akemi
    It's more like a worm than a rod!
[14:39] Tatsu-ni
    Stop for a sec, Akemi-chan.
[14:41] Tatsu-ni
    Let's sort this out in order.
[14:43] Tatsu-ni
    First of all, my peepee is not a worm.
    Besides, I wasn't even talking about that!
[14:48] Akemi
    What do you mean "I wasn't"... what?!
[14:51] Kosame
    Nobody was talking about that!
[14:52] Kosame
    Except for you, Akemi-san!
SIGN    Snack Basue
[14:56] Kosame
    Snack Basue.
SIGN    (It's of the past...)
[15:07] Akemi
    What, is it about WNPL again?
[15:09] Morita
    What's that? Some kind of pro-wrestling group?
[15:11] Akemi
    WNPL is... "Why am I Not
    Popular with the Ladies?"
[15:15] Morita
    You didn't have to give it an acronym.
    Besides, I'm done with that.
[15:19] Akemi
    Oh? How so?
[15:21] Morita
    I... finally found out.
[15:26] Morita
    Why I'm not popular with the ladies...
[15:29] Akemi
    The end.
[15:29] Morita
    I'm just getting started!
[15:35] Kazama
    Hey y'all!
[15:38] Akemi
    The door you just came in is the exit.
[15:40] Kazama
    You're already showing me the exit?!
[15:44] Kazama
    Anyways, give me a shochu mixed
    with hot water, will ya?
[15:49] Kazama
    Hey, it's Morita-kun!
[15:52] Kazama
    Oh, man. Talk about nostalgia!
[15:54] Kazama
    This is exciting!
[15:56] Kazama
    Wha? When was the last time I saw you?
[15:58] Kazama
    Wasn't it when we graduated middle school?!
[15:59] Kazama
    Seriously, blast from the past!
[16:02] Morita
    Hey...
[16:03] Akemi
    You're really putting the distance...
[16:05] Kazama
    Huh? What? What's with this cold reception?!
[16:08] Kazama
    Did you forget about me or something?
[16:11] Morita
    I remember you...
[16:13] Morita
    You're Kazama-kun, right?
[16:15] Akemi
    Morita...
[16:17] Akemi
    Do you have some kind of trauma
     about being bullied or something?
[16:21] Morita
    No, it's nothing like that. It's just...
[16:25] Morita
    It's been more than 10 years
    since I saw him in middle school!
[16:28] Morita
    We're practically strangers!
[16:30] Akemi
    I understand!
[16:31] Kazama
    What? I don't get it?!
[16:34] Morita
    Hey, we're no longer students.
    We're adults now, so...
[16:39] Morita
    There are certain formalities that
    need to be respected, you know?
[16:41] Kazama
    Why are you talking all proper to me?!
[16:43] Kazama
    Aw, come on, man.
[16:46] Kazama
    We used to walk home from
    school together, remember?!
[16:50] Kazama
    Did you know that Morita-kun's
    house is really close to mine?!
[16:54] Akemi
    Oh, is it now?
[16:56] Akemi
    Shouldn't you guys be more friendly, then?
[16:59] Morita
    Akemi-chan...
[17:01] Morita
    Despite being neighbors, please understand
    that we didn't get along very well!
[17:07] Morita
    It's true, we used to go home together, but...
[17:10] Morita
    we've never gone over
    to each other's houses!
[17:14] Akemi
    Oh, I think I'm getting the picture...
[17:18] Kazama
    Nah, it's just a coincidence.
[17:20] Kazama
    Because, me, you, and Pokechin,
[17:23] Kazama
    would hang out together after school, remember?
[17:25] Akemi
    Pokechin?
[17:26] Morita
    Pokechin is our friend's nickname,
    because he used to always
[17:29] Morita
    have his hands in his pockets and everyone
    thought he was playing with himself.
[17:32] Morita
    It's no use bringing up a mutual friend
    to try and get friendly with me!
[17:36] Morita
    The fact that we're still calling
    each other "-kun"
[17:39] Morita
    instead of our last names
    or nicknames is the solid proof of
[17:42] Morita
    just how distant we are!
[17:44] Kazama
    Don't say that!
[17:47] Kazama
    By the way, are you still
    in touch with Pokechin?
[17:49] Kazama
    Why don't the three of us
    go drinking next time?
[17:51] Akemi
    Man, he's persistent!
[17:53] Morita
    I've been in touch with Pokechin ever since!
[17:56] Morita
    But we haven't heard from you
    since we graduated...
[18:00] Morita
    I have no intention of hanging out together!
[18:03] Morita
    As a matter of fact,
[18:04] Morita
    I didn't like how you would always butt in
    whenever I tried to hang out with Pokechin!
[18:11] Pokechin
    Kazama-kun said he wants to play too.
[18:14] Morita
    ...Sure.
[18:16] Morita
    I can't say I don't want to...
[18:18] Akemi
    Geez, he's sure acting effeminate.
[18:23] Akemi
    Oh, did it finally get through to him?
[18:27] Kazama
    Anyways, I got married!
[18:30] Akemi
    Anyways?! His skin is as thick as
    a presidential state car! Impenetrable.
SIGN    Presidential State Car
SIGN    Beast
[18:34] Basue
    Beast!
[18:36] Kazama
    And the person I married is...
[18:39] Kazama
    none other than Miyakawa,
    a classmate that even Morita-kun knows!
[18:42] Kazama
    A few years back, we ran into
    each other and we started dating!
[18:46] Kazama
    The world really is a small place!
[18:48] Morita
    Stop it, will you?!
[18:50] Morita
    The last thing a single man wants to hear
    is a former classmate getting married!
[18:55] Morita
    On top of that, I used to like
    Miyakawa back in middle school!
[18:59] Morita
    You're giving me a double whammy
    by telling me these marriage stories
[19:03] Morita
    of a former classmate and the girl I liked!
[19:05] Morita
    Actually, you knew I liked her!
[19:07] Akemi
    Well, that's awfully rude of you.
[19:11] Kazama
    Well, yeah, I knew, but...
[19:14] Kazama
    Huh? You're seriously that shocked?
[19:17] Kazama
    Wouldn't an old classmate you liked
    be even more of a stranger?
[19:21] Morita
    I know! I know, but!
[19:24] Morita
    There's a difference, you know...
[19:27] Morita
    It's like if you were a fan of a celebrity and
    they passed away. Wouldn't you be shocked?
[19:30] Kazama
    Uh, no? 'Cus they're strangers, aren't they?
[19:33] Morita
    You wouldn't care much about hearing
    a beautiful voice actress is in love,
[19:36] Morita
    but you'd be shocked if she
    got married, wouldn't you?
[19:38] Morita
    When marriage comes up, you'd be shocked
    no matter who she was with, wouldn't you?!
[19:42] Kazama
    No, I don't get it!
    She's still a stranger, isn't she?
[19:45] Morita
    Please, at least leave Rie Takahashi for me...
[19:49] Akemi
    I have a feeling Rie Takahashi's
    J-Alert is going off like crazy right now...
[19:54] Morita
    Can't I be the last male left for humanity?
[19:58] Akemi
    Just like being the only boy in a brass band,
    it'll be awkward and hard to tolerate.
[20:03] Kazama
    Morita-kun, remember how awkward you felt?
    You quit the brass band after a week.
[20:08] Akemi
    Oh, after humanity was destroyed!
[20:10] Kazama
    Morita-kun, you were getting
    cautious stares from the girls
[20:13] Kazama
    who played the woodwind instruments.
[20:15] Morita
    Quit it!
[20:17] Morita
    Please let me be the one to tell those
    embarrassing stories from the past
[20:20] Morita
    when I feel it's the right time to tell them!
[20:22] Akemi
    Why does it even matter?
[20:23] Kazama
    Man, it sure is fun drinking with old friends!
[20:28] Morita
    It's not fun at all for me!
[20:30] Morita
    Just like I said,
[20:32] Morita
    anyone who I haven't met
    in over 10 years is a stranger to me!
[20:36] Morita
    Clueless people like you
    are no different than a harasser!
[20:41] Morita
    You're even worse, since you know
    all my embarrassing moments.
[20:46] Kazama
    All right. I kinda get it now.
[20:50] Morita
    You finally get it?
[20:54] Kazama
    That's why you never came to the reunion, huh.
[20:57] Morita
    What?
[20:59] Kazama
    Well, since we haven't met in over 10 years,
     I guess we are strangers.
[21:03] Kazama
    To you, Morita-kun, a reunion is nothing
    more than a gathering of strangers, isn't it?
[21:15] Morita
    There was... a reunion?
[21:27] Akemi
    Kazama, if you're not going to sing,
    don't put in a song.
[21:30] Kazama
    But Morita-kun got all quiet and stuff.
[21:34] Kazama
    Junior hostess, please sing a song.
[21:34] [SONG] Caption
    Reserve
SIGN    Ah, Heartlessness
[21:36] Akemi
    Yeah, I guess you're right. Okay.
[21:42] Kazama
    Don't worry, I'll join in too.
[21:44] Akemi
    Did this song have duet parts?
[21:54] Akemi
    Aren't I pretty as I flutter?
    Aren't I a good woman?
[22:01] Akemi
    Despite your looks,
    you're the type who loves unconditionally.
[22:07] Akemi
    Men are unfair because they
    use tenderness to get their way.
[22:14] Akemi
    They run away when the dawn draws near.
[22:21] Akemi
    My tears are too salty and...
[22:27] Akemi
    Jealousy is nasty. Just let me do as I please.
[22:40] Akemi
    When you take off your
    sunglasses ,I burst into laughter.
[22:47] Akemi
    I'm weak to those innocent eyes.
[22:53] Morita and Kazama {background}
    Les Miserables! Yay!
[22:54] Akemi
    His betrayal never
    ceases even if he's handcuffed.
[23:00] Akemi
    He finishes me off with his sweet words as
[23:03] Akemi
    the fog falls onto the city.
[23:10] Akemi
    What were you guys saying during the bridge?
[23:13] Kazama
    I don't know?
[23:15] Akemi
    How were you going to join in when
    you're not even sure what to say?
[23:18] Kazama
    It can be anything.
[23:20] Morita
    It's Les Miserables...
[23:23] Morita
    "Ah Heartlessness" comes from the Japanese
    version of the musical Les Miserables.
[23:27] Morita
    This song comes from there.
[23:30] Akemi
    Oh, I see.
[23:31] Morita
    On top of that, the meaning
    of Les Miserables is miserable,
[23:34] Morita
    but it also has an additional meaning which
    is being the bottom or base of something.
[23:38] Akemi
    Don't talk so badly about yourself.
[23:40] Morita
    I'm just trying to explain
    what the song means, you know.
[23:43] Kazama
    Oh man, it sure is fun
    being with you, Morita-kun!
[23:47] Morita
    Not for me, it isn't!
