[00:02] Tomo     I promised Misuzu and Carol     I'd walk home with them today. [00:04] Junichiro     It's cool. Don't worry about it. [00:07] Carol     You're taking this awfully well, Jun-kun. [00:09] Misuzu     Not going to get all dejected this time? [00:10] Junichiro     I'll never get dejected over not     going home together anymore. [00:14] Junichiro     I don't want to be the kind     of guy who ties Tomo down. [00:17] Tomo     Jun... [00:21] Junichiro     What the... S-Stop! [00:25] Tomo     Lately... Actually, for a while now... [00:28] Tomo     I think it started when he started     to see me as a girl, to be honest... [00:33] Tomo     But Jun's been so relaxed,     it's actually kinda pissing me off. [00:36] Carol     I get it. [00:37] Misuzu     I get it, too. [00:38] Tomo     It's like I'm the only one freaking out, [00:40] Tomo     and it makes me feel like I've lost. [00:43] Misuzu     I don't think it's an issue     of winning or losing, [00:46] Misuzu     but I get that you want to     see him acting flustered. [00:49] Carol     Then... why not kiss him? [00:52] Tomo     Huh?! K-Kiss him?! Are you... [00:55] Tomo     If it was that easy, I wouldn't     be suffering like this! [00:57] Misuzu     You could try watching     a kissing scene together. [01:00] Misuzu     I bet that would make him think about it. [01:02] Tomo     D-Does it really work like that? [01:05] Misuzu     It'll be Christmas soon. [01:07] Misuzu     Why don't you go see this together? [01:23] OP     When I throw a jab or a straight,     it always lands [01:28] OP     But when I'm aiming for your heart,     I miss every time [01:34] OP     Parallel, zigzagging, awkward, incoherent [01:39] OP     When you look my way and move closer to me [01:43] OP     I know it doesn't mean the same thing for you [01:49] OP     But I wish we could stay like this forever [01:54] OP     My changing feelings are driving me crazy [02:00] OP     The moment you turn to face me,     take that! Telepathy [02:06] OP     If only we could feel the same thing [02:11] OP     I want to kick this pesky subtlety away [02:16] OP     I want to know everything,     I want to know everything [02:22] OP     I can't fool you forever [02:25] OP     I can't keep this hidden [02:27] OP     I want to shout out my secret, AHHH [02:34] OP     Take that!

[03:00] Tomo     Did you wait long? [03:04] Tomo     You look kinda grown-up today. [03:07] Junichiro     You think so? [03:08] Tomo     What about me? Well? Well? [03:11] Tomo     Hey, c'mon! Look at me! [03:14] Junichiro     Tomo... [03:15] Junichiro     You look... cute today. Pretty, in fact. [03:20] Junichiro     There's just something special     about this look. I really like it. [03:25] Junichiro     Sorry... I'm not used to this kind     of thing, so I can't say it well... [03:31] Tomo     Y-Yeah... [03:33] Tomo     Damn him! [03:39] Tomo     We're gonna see this today! [03:41] Junichiro     What?! SIGN    This Love Is the Real Deal!! A Story of Pure Love [03:42] Junichiro     Are you actually serious? SIGN    This Love Is the Real Deal!! A Story of Pure Love [03:44] Tomo     C'mon, Jun. We're not little kids anymore. [03:49] Tomo     You can't panic over a little kiss. [03:51] Junichiro     Wh-When did you turn into     that kind of adult?! [03:55] Tomo     Heh! SIGN    This Love Is the Real Deal!! A Story of Pure Love [03:56] Tomo     Staring at this thing for     a whole week paid off! [04:00] Keita     Wait, Haruko! [04:03] Haruko     We should stop seeing each other. [04:06] Keita     But why?! [04:08] Haruko     You're someone I must never love! [04:12] Haruko     Forgive me, Keita-kun. [04:14] (Flashback) Misuzu     When it gets to the kissing scene,     put your hand on top of his. [04:19] Misuzu     The effect will be immediate. [04:22] Tomo     All right! Bring it on, kissing scene! [04:26] Tomo     Wait, what?! [04:28] Haruko     We can't! Not here! [04:31] Keita     I can't hold back anymore! [04:34] Keita     I love you, Haruko. [04:36] Haruko     Okay. Come to me, Keita-kun. [04:39] Keita     Haruko... Haruko! [04:41] Tomo     Did Misuzu go see this movie by herself?! [04:45] Tomo     This is way beyond just a kiss! [04:47] Tomo     If I put my hand on his now,     it'll look like I'm asking for this! [04:51] Tomo     Damn! He's really taking this in! [04:54] Haruko     Keita-kun... [04:56] Keita     Haruko... [04:58] Tomo     The movie was... p-pretty interesting, huh? [05:02] Junichiro     Yeah. I guess it pays to go     into things with an open mind. [05:06] Tomo     You were looking really focused.     Are you into that kinda thing? [05:10] Tomo     Does he like pervy stuff that much?! [05:12] Junichiro     I actually couldn't get into love     and romance stories before. [05:16] Junichiro     I always thought I was the kind of     guy who couldn't relate to all that. [05:21] Junichiro     But now... I don't know why... [05:23] Junichiro     Because I fell in love with you, maybe? [05:26] Tomo     I'm total scum! [05:28] Junichiro     Oh, yeah. [05:31] Junichiro     Here. It's your Christmas present. [05:35] Tomo     Thanks... [05:37] Junichiro     Go on. Open it. [05:46] Tomo     Wh-What do you think? [05:48] Tomo     This kind of thing really     doesn't suit me, huh? [05:52] Junichiro     I'm so glad I bought those. [05:54] Tomo     Say something! [05:56] Tomo     Actually, I have something for you, too. [06:00] Tomo     Here you go. [06:03] Junichiro     No way... Is this a handmade muffler?! [06:06] Tomo     I heard it was a classic gift choice,      so I gave it a shot, [06:09] Tomo     but it didn't come out well     enough to actually wear around. [06:12] Tomo     I bet you feel pretty     awkward just accepting it. [06:16] Tomo     Don't just put it on right away! [06:21] Tomo     The truth is, I don't have any     complaints about the way Jun is now. [06:25] Tomo     I know he's acting calmer     because I'm important to him. [06:31] Tomo     It's just... Somehow, I've gotten greedy. [06:35] Tomo     I want to shock him more! [06:37] Tomo     I want to make him like me more! [06:40] Junichiro     It's getting dark. Ready to head home? [06:49] Tomo     I'll go... to your house. [06:52] Junichiro     Huh?! [06:53] Junichiro     But it's already night— [07:03] Tomo     So your mom's out again today, huh? [07:07] Junichiro     I think she'll be back by nightfall, though. [07:10] Tomo     Oh. [07:13] Junichiro     I know! [07:14] Junichiro     Wanna play some games? [07:16] Tomo     No, I'm good. [07:19] Junichiro     Okay. [07:33] Junichiro     Chill out, me! [07:34] Junichiro     I've been alone with Tomo in my     own room tons of times before! [07:38] Tomo     Hey... [07:42] Tomo     Can I... [07:44] Tomo     sit next to you? [08:04] Tomo     I knew I wasn't cut out for bargaining! [08:07] Tomo     I came here today... to kiss you! [08:11] Junichiro     Kiss me?! [08:12] Junichiro     T-To kiss me?! Where did that even... [08:15] Tomo     You don't want to? [08:16] Junichiro     No, it's not that I don't want to... [08:19] Tomo     I guess... [08:21] Tomo     I don't have any feminine     appeal after all, huh? [08:29] Junichiro     Tomo! [08:31] Tomo     Huh?! Jun?! [08:33] Tomo     Is it gonna happen?! [08:34] Tomo     Are we... [08:35] Tomo     Are we about to do that*?! [08:39] Tomo     He's making a fist?! [08:41] Tomo     Is that a thing, too?! [08:44] Tomo     What?! [08:46] Tomo     What the hell are you doing?! Are you okay?! [08:49] Junichiro     Tomo... [08:51] Junichiro     You have so much appeal! [08:55] Junichiro     The desire to kiss you... a-and touch you...      is constantly on my mind! [09:00] Tomo     Huh?! [09:01] Junichiro     But I don't think it's right to just     do those things without any thought! [09:06] Junichiro     I want them to be special. [09:08] Tomo     Jun... [09:10] Junichiro     So I can't do that now. [09:13] Junichiro     I haven't even asked you     to be my girlfriend yet. [09:16] Tomo     You're right. We're not even going out yet. [09:23] Tomo     Wait, we weren't even going out yet?! [09:28] Junichiro     Actually, after I told you      how I felt about you, [09:31] Junichiro     I went to talk to your parents. [09:34] Junichiro     Akemi-san gave our     relationship her blessing, [09:37] Junichiro     but your dad... [09:39] (Flashback) Goro     If you want to date Tomo, [09:42] (Flashback) Goro     you have to defeat me first! [09:44] Junichiro     That's what he said. [09:47] Tomo     Dad, you stupid piece of shit! [09:51] Akemi     How could you tell him he can't date     Tomo unless he beats you? Poor Jun-bo. [09:57] Goro     Yeah. [09:58] Akemi     So? Why are you all depressed now? [10:03] Goro     Tomo is... [10:05] Goro     She's really my daughter, huh? [10:13] Akemi     You're asking that after all this time? [10:16] Akemi     You won't find a cuter     daughter than her anywhere. [10:19] Tomo     Damn you, old man! [10:22] Goro     Tomo? [10:24] Tomo     You know what this is about, don't you? [10:26] Goro     Mm... [10:27] Tomo     Why'd you tell him he can't     date me unless he defeats you? [10:31] Tomo     What were you thinking when     you said that to Jun?! [10:33] Goro     M-Mm... [10:35] Tomo     Quit your stupid grunting     and answer me, asshole! [10:39] Goro     M-Mm... [10:41] Tomo     Damn it! You're gonna keep     me in the dark, then? [10:45] Tomo     Forget it! [10:46] Goro     Tomo? [10:48] Tomo     Dad... [10:51] Tomo     I hate you! [10:52] Goro     She hates me?! [11:07] Carol     Happy New Year, Misuzu-chan. [11:10] Misuzu     Happy New Year. [11:13] Carol     You still can't get in touch with Tomo-chan? [11:15] Misuzu     No. [11:17] Misuzu     She won't answer her phone, [11:18] Misuzu     and my messages aren't even     being marked as read. [11:20] Carol     I wanted to do our first shrine     visit of the year with her. [11:24] Carol     You haven't heard anything from     her since Christmas, right? [11:27] Misuzu     That's right. [11:28] Carol     It's Jun-kun, isn't it? [11:30] Misuzu     Yes. It has to be him. [11:34] Akemi     Sorry to tell you after you     took the time to come over, SIGN    Aizawa [11:37] Akemi     but she's still saying she     doesn't want to see anyone. [11:42] Junichiro     I see. [11:45] Akemi     H-Hey, I know! Why don't you     try fighting Goro right now? [11:49] Akemi     He's been off his game. [11:52] Akemi     He might be easier to beat than you think. [11:54] Junichiro     No, I'm not in the mood to     fight right now, either. [11:59] Akemi     N-No, huh? SIGN    Back at School [12:05] Junichiro     Just wait a minute! [12:07] Tomo     Shut up! [12:09] Junichiro     I said wait, Tomo! [12:15] Tomo     Do you know why I'm pissed off? [12:19] Junichiro     Because I didn't tell     you what your dad said? [12:21] Tomo     Bingo. Why didn't you tell me? [12:24] Junichiro     Because... [12:26] Tomo     You could have just told me [12:28] Tomo     that you'd go kick my dad's ass,     so I could just take it easy and wait! [12:32] Tomo     Then I would've... [12:34] Junichiro     I can't just ask you to wait for me! [12:39] Tomo     I don't... have to wait? [12:43] Junichiro     Yeah. Since it's come to this,     I intend to face it with all I've got. [12:48] Junichiro     But I know it's not gonna be     that easy to beat your dad. [12:52] Junichiro     Defeating him was already my life's goal. [12:57] Junichiro     So if I go through my whole     life never able to beat him, [13:01] Junichiro     I'll just... [13:03] Tomo     Get... [13:06] Tomo     Get real! [13:11] Tomo     As long as Jun's like that, he'll never win,     no matter how capable he is! [13:16] Misuzu     Long time no see. [13:18] Carol     How have you been, Tomo-chan? [13:21] Misuzu     You completely ignored us     all through winter break, [13:24] Misuzu     so I guess it's been two weeks? [13:26] Carol     Do you remember when we said     we'd all go skiing together? [13:29] Tomo     Um... I'm... really sorry... [13:34] Carol     So that's what happened. [13:36] Misuzu     Well? Do you think he can win? [13:39] Tomo     H-He can! [13:41] Tomo     Maybe not right away, but... [13:43] Tomo     If he takes his training seriously,     maybe in a few months... [13:47] Tomo     No, maybe a few years... [13:49] Carol/Misuzu     That's too long. [13:50] Misuzu     So what are you going to do? [13:53] Tomo     What do you want me to say?     There's nothing I can do. [13:58] Carol     And that's okay with you? [14:02] Misuzu     If you want to take the heroine's     stance of silently observing [14:05] Misuzu     a battle between two men, that's fine. [14:08] Misuzu     But is that what you want? [14:14] Junichiro     Tomo! [14:15] Tomo     Wh-What?! [14:17] Junichiro     I'm gonna challenge your dad today. SIGN    Kashima Daimyojin SIGN    Kashima Daimyojin [14:37] Junichiro     Damn. [14:37] Goro     Jun-bo! What the hell are you thinking?! [14:40] Junichiro     You said you'd accept my challenge     at any time, didn't you? [14:44] Junichiro     So you will accept it, right? [14:47] Goro     Very well, then. [14:49] Goro     I thought if I said that, you'd     give up on Tomo and run away. [14:53] Junichiro     I realize I'm at a huge disadvantage. [14:56] Junichiro     So I'll do whatever I have to do to defeat you. [15:00] Junichiro     And on that note... [15:02] Junichiro     I've called in some support. [15:04] Goro     H-How dare you?! [15:06] Goro     Br-Br-Bringing Akemi here is playing dirty! [15:09] Tomo     Jun's challenging my dad right now. [15:12] Tomo     Should I really just stay here? [15:15] Misaki     Aizawa-san... If something's bothering you,      you can talk to me... [15:20] Tomo     Huh? [15:23] Misaki     I see. So he really went to     challenge Goro-san, huh? [15:27] Misaki     Jun-kun's amazing. [15:29] Tomo     You said it. [15:30] Tomo     Wait, Senpai, you knew Jun was     going to challenge my dad? [15:35] Misaki     Yeah, actually, he seemed stressed     about something over winter break, [15:40] Misaki     so I asked what was up, and... [15:42] (Flashback) Junichiro     I know I don't have much chance of winning, [15:45] (Flashback) Junichiro     but I'm pretty sure this is     a battle I have to fight. [15:49] (Flashback) Junichiro     So as long as Tomo doesn't abandon me, I... [15:53] Misaki     "I can't give up," he said. [15:56] Tomo     Since he's such a sincere guy, I figured he     was fighting 'cause he thought he had to... [15:59] Misaki     I think you should cheer Jun-kun on. [16:02] Misaki     I'm sure you know better than anyone... [16:06] Misaki     what would help him the most. [16:12] Tomo     Sorry, Senpai! [16:14] Tomo     I gotta leave early today! [16:27] Carol     Was that... [16:29] Misuzu     Yeah, that wind pressure     was definitely Tomo. [16:31] Carol     Looks like she's over it. That's great. [16:35] Misuzu     You're right. She must have had an epiphany. [16:44] Goro     Why don't you just give up already? [16:46] Goro     You can't defeat me as you are now. [16:50] Junichiro     Not... Not yet! [17:00] Tomo     Hey, you okay? You're really wrecked. [17:03] Junichiro     This is nothi— [17:05] Junichiro     Wait, Tomo?! [17:06] Junichiro     Wh-Why are you here?! [17:08] Tomo     Well, I was thinking about it. [17:10] Tomo     You wanna go out with me, right? [17:13] Junichiro     Huh? [17:13] Tomo     I wanna go out with you, too! [17:15] Tomo     And the only one in the way of that... [17:18] Tomo     is my old man! [17:20] Tomo     So it's fine if I defeat you instead, right? [17:24] Junichiro/Goro/Akemi     What kind of logic is that?! [17:26] Junichiro     This is between me and your dad! [17:28] Tomo     I know, I know! [17:30] Tomo     I'm not trying to show up in the     middle of your fight and butt in. [17:33] Tomo     But if you go down and can't get     back up, then it's my turn. [17:36] Tomo     And I'll beat him, so you can lose     without worrying about anything. [17:40] Junichiro     Those eyes... She's serious. [17:44] Junichiro     Oh, really? [17:46] Junichiro     Well, now you've done it. [17:48] Junichiro     That's a hell of a lot of pressure! [17:50] Tomo     Yo, Jun. I was watching for     a bit, and I think Dad... [17:54] Junichiro     Yeah, I know. [17:59] Junichiro     I'd like one more round, please. [18:01] Goro     Hmph. You never learn. [18:04] Junichiro     Something's different about him today. [18:07] Junichiro     He's taking some wide swings*     that leave him open. [18:10] Junichiro     If he's doing that on purpose,     then what he's testing is... [18:17] Junichiro     There it is! A wide right! [18:20] Junichiro     As often as he's doing it,     it's gotta be intentional. [18:22] Junichiro     And if there's an opening,     I just have to take it! [18:25] Junichiro     It's as simple as that... [18:28] Junichiro     to say, at least! SIGN    Kashima Daimyojin [18:33] Junichiro     I can't beat him with hit-and-away     strikes that have no momentum. [18:37] Junichiro     I have to step right into his reach,     without thinking about consequences, [18:40] Junichiro     and deal a counter that uses     his own strength against him. [18:42] Junichiro     That's probably what it's     gonna take to beat him. [18:48] Junichiro     That's a real challenge for me. [18:51] Junichiro     But it's a hurdle Tomo     could overcome easily. [18:54] Junichiro     That's probably the point of this test. [18:57] Junichiro     Every day, somewhere in this world,     someone is unfairly getting hurt. [19:02] Junichiro     What if that happened     to someone close to me? [19:07] Junichiro     Tomo would act faster than anyone. [19:10] Junichiro     If I hesitate for a second,     she'll be beyond my reach, [19:12] Junichiro     and I'll end up leaving her alone. [19:16] Junichiro     I get it, old man. [19:18] Junichiro     That's why you're so worried     about her, isn't it? [19:22] Junichiro     I'm sorry the man next to     her is someone like me. [19:27] Junichiro     Here I come! [19:28] Goro     Come. [19:32] Junichiro     I'm not like Tomo. [19:34] Junichiro     I can't put my life on the     line for a total stranger. [19:38] Junichiro     The only one I could hope to do that for... [19:41] Junichiro     is the girl I love! [19:44] Tomo     Go, Jun! [20:08] Tomo     Jun... wo— [20:10] Goro     Not enough! [20:13] Tomo/Junichiro     What?! [20:14] Akemi     Oh, enough already! [20:18] Junichiro     Huh? [20:20] Goro     It's true. [20:22] Goro     For just a moment, my fingers     did touch the floor. [20:27] Goro     You win, Junichiro. [20:32] Junichiro     I... I actually beat— [20:36] Tomo     Yes! [20:38] Tomo     You won! You beat him! [20:41] Junichiro     C'mon, Tomo, that hurts! [20:44] Akemi     Well done. [20:44] Tomo     You actually did it! [20:47] Junichiro     I give! I give! [20:51] Tomo     So you beat Dad, right? [20:53] Junichiro     Yeah. [20:55] Tomo     Which means... it's okay now, right? [20:58] Tomo     Y'know, to go out with m— [21:00] Junichiro     Wait! [21:02] Junichiro     I love you, Tomo! Please go out with me! [21:05] Tomo     Huh? [21:07] Tomo     What?! [21:09] Tomo     I was about to say that!     Why'd you interrupt?! [21:12] Tomo     Why'd you have to say it?! [21:13] Junichiro     It's the guy's job to say that, isn't it? [21:16] Tomo     There's no law saying it has to be! [21:18] Tomo     If you're gonna do that, then I'm gonna... [21:31] Junichiro     Wh-What did you just... [21:34] Tomo     You were amazing. [21:35] Junichiro     Huh? [21:37] Tomo     When you beat my dad, you looked amazing. [21:41] Tomo     Watching you made my heart race. [21:45] Tomo     But... [21:45] Tomo     You'd better be ready! [21:47] Tomo     From now on, I'm gonna be making     your heart race a lot more! [21:55] Junichiro     I guess it's on, then. [22:01] Tomo     Yeah! [22:04] Tomo     You'll never beat me! [22:10] ED     (This suspicious behavior is...) [22:14] ED     Hey, you know, I'm all mixed up [22:18] ED     It's too complicated, I'm freaking out [22:23] ED     I want to look cute to you [22:23] ED     (crazy, crazy, drive me crazy, and that's…) [22:25] ED     So I'm plotting, bargaining,     sly, and stubborn [22:29] ED     Dizzying love [22:34] ED     Just tell him to look at you [22:38] ED     And watch him stiffen up even more,     because you're both so awkward [22:43] ED     What? Even if we're alike in that way [22:47] ED     It doesn't make me happy, 'cause it     means our love is going nowhere [22:52] ED     Cloudy heart, swirling emotions—     I sense rain coming [23:00] ED     So I partly open my umbrella,     then sneakily scoot closer to you [23:09] ED     Please notice the curl of my     eyelashes as I keep blinking [23:13] ED     And don't say I'm acting weird [23:16] Tomo     One year ago, in spring, I confessed my love.
