**[01:54] Yayoi**
What do we have planned for today?
**[02:01] Mutsuki**
Practicing for the Full Moon
Festival again, right?
**[02:04] Yayoi**
Yeah.
**[02:05] Mutsuki**
Sorry.
**[02:07] Yayoi**
What are you talking about?
**[02:09] Yayoi**
You've got other work scheduled.
It's unavoidable.
**[02:12] Mutsuki**
I can't believe how little
time I have for it, though.
**[02:15] Yayoi**
We've already taken into account
how busy your schedule is.
**[02:19] Yayoi**
We'll do everything we can.
**[02:23] Kisaragi**
Good morning!
**[02:24] Yayoi**
Oh? You're up early.
**[02:26] Shiwasu**
We're going to get in some
dance practice on our own.
**[02:29] Yayoi**
I see. Good luck.
**[02:37] Kisaragi**
We'll have it down by the time
you arrive, Hajime-san.
**[02:48] Mutsuki**
I'm counting on you.
**[02:49] Kisaragi**
Sure thing! We're off!
**[02:58] Mutsuki**
What is it?
**[02:59] Yayoi**
Just... your hands.
**[03:01] Mutsuki**
My hands? Is there something on them?
**[03:04] Yayoi**
No, that's not what I meant.
**[03:07] Yayoi**
I never get tired of looking at them.
**[03:10] Mutsuki**
My hands?
**[03:12] Yayoi**
You don't see it yourself?
**[03:16] Yayoi**
Well, I suppose that's just like you.
**[03:28] Tsukishiro**
I'm sorry we couldn't make much time in
your schedule for the Full Moon Festival.
**[03:33] Tsukishiro**
Hajime-kun?
**[03:35] Mutsuki**
Sorry. What did you say?
**[03:37] Tsukishiro**
Once the Myth x Kiss shoot is over,
you'll be able to take a breather.
**[03:41] Tsukishiro**
Let's work hard over the next two days.
**[03:44] Mutsuki**
Sure.
**[03:57] Staff 2**
Ow!
**[03:58] Staff 1**
Don't space out.
**[04:00] Staff 2**
Right, sorry.
**[04:01] Staff 2**
He's amazing. That's Hajime Mutsuki, huh?
**[04:09] Camera**
Okay, that should do it.
**[04:11] Mutsuki**
I'm sorry, but could we take a few more?
**[04:15] Camera**
What? I think we've got
some pretty good shots.
**[04:18] Mutsuki**
I think I tried too hard.
**[04:21] Mutsuki**
I feel like a more subdued expression
would create a better atmosphere.
**[04:26] Camera**
I see.
**[04:27] Camera**
All right. Give me one shot just like that.
**[04:29] Mutsuki**
Thank you.
**[04:31] Staff 1**
I've heard the rumors,
and he's as stoic as they say.
**[04:35] Staff 2**
But it does seem better than before.
**[04:45] Ogishima**
It's that time of year again.
**[04:49] Tsukishiro**
Indeed. Thanks for reaching out to us again.
**[04:54] Ogishima**
No, thank you.
**[04:55] Ogishima**
Honestly, using a male model to promote
our line of women's cosmetics was a risk,
**[05:02] Ogishima**
but sales have been great ever since.
**[05:05] Ogishima**
I'm glad we asked you to do it.
**[05:08] Mutsuki**
Thank you.
**[05:10] Ogishima**
Now, about this project...
**[05:12] Suito**
We'd like you to be our model
for this product, as well.
**[05:16] Tsukishiro**
Is that...
**[05:17] Mutsuki**
Nail polish?
**[05:20] Suito**
Yes. It's our new nail polish.
**[05:23] Suito**
We'd like you to wear it for the
next photo shoot, Mutsuki-san.
**[05:28] Mutsuki**
Nail polish...
**[05:30] Mutsuki**
I've only ever worn it for concerts.
**[05:34] Mutsuki**
Is that okay?
**[05:35] Ogishima**
We understand your concern.
**[05:37] Ogishima**
We would normally use a female
hand model for this type of product...
**[05:42] Suito**
But the planning team insisted that you do it,
**[05:47] Suito**
so we'd like to use your hands.
**[05:54] Mutsuki**
I see...
**[05:56] Mutsuki**
Well, if you're okay with my hands...
**[05:59] Suito**
Yes, your hands are exactly what we want.
**[06:02] Suito**
We hope you'll do it.
**[06:04] Mutsuki**
Very well.
**[06:05] Mutsuki**
If there's anything special I need to do,
**[06:08] Mutsuki**
I'll try to have it down
by the day of the shoot.
**[06:10] Suito**
You'll be fine.
**[06:12] Suito**
Your beautiful hands require
no special preparations.
**[06:17] Ogishima**
You can do the shoot just as you are.
**[06:29] Mutsuki**
What do you think they meant
by "no preparations required"?
**[06:33] Tsukishiro**
Exactly what it sounds like, I'd say.
**[06:37] Mutsuki**
So... I shouldn't do anything?
**[06:39] Tsukishiro**
No, it just means you're
attractive enough as you are.
**[07:03] Mutsuki**
What is it?
**[07:04] Kisaragi**
It's just, uh... I was thinking
that might be too hot to touch.
**[07:09] Mutsuki**
It's empty.
**[07:13] Kannazuki**
Oh, I'll wash that!
**[07:15] Minazuki**
Sit back and relax, Hajime.
**[07:21] Mutsuki**
What's going on?
**[07:23] Both**
A reward for your hard work, Hajime-san!
**[07:26] Satsuki**
I heard high-quality protein
is good for your nails,
**[07:29] Satsuki**
so I made nuggets out of
chicken breast and tofu.
**[07:32] Nagatsuki**
Apparently vitamin A is good for nails, too.
**[07:35] Nagatsuki**
It's more easily absorbed
when consumed with fats,
**[07:39] Nagatsuki**
so I made some butter-sauteed spinach.
**[07:42] Both**
Here you go!
**[07:47] Mutsuki**
I'll eat them later. Thanks.
**[07:49] Satsuki**
Got it. We'll wrap them up and
leave them in the refrigerator.
**[07:54] Nagatsuki**
Heat them up when you're ready to eat.
**[07:56] Mutsuki**
Sure.
**[08:03] Hazuki**
Hajime-san, have some toner.
**[08:06] Mutsuki**
Toner?
**[08:08] Hazuki**
The makeup artist I worked with today
**[08:09] Hazuki**
said it's good for moisturizing
your hands, so I bought some.
**[08:13] Mutsuki**
I appreciate it.
**[08:17] Uzuki**
I found this hand cream at
my filming location today.
**[08:19] Uzuki**
It smells like strawberry milk. It's a gift.
**[08:22] Hazuki**
You just wanted that for yourself.
**[08:25] Uzuki**
I bought some for me, too.
**[08:27] Hazuki**
I thought so!
**[08:30] Mutsuki**
I'll use these.
**[08:35] Fuzuki**
Good morning.
**[08:37] Fuzuki**
Is Haru around?
**[08:39] Fuzuki**
Hajime, you're up early.
**[08:41] Mutsuki**
Yeah.
**[08:42] Fuzuki**
Oh? Should you be cutting your nails?
**[08:45] Mutsuki**
It's not a problem.
**[08:47] Fuzuki**
You're not cutting them too short, are you?
**[08:49] Mutsuki**
It's fine.
**[08:50] Yayoi**
Here, use this topcoat.
**[08:52] Yayoi**
It comes recommended by
the ladies of the Yayoi family.
**[08:55] Yayoi**
It won't damage your nails.
**[08:57] Yayoi**
Want me to paint it on for you?
**[08:59] Mutsuki**
I'll accept your topcoat, but...
**[09:01] Mutsuki**
Haru, why does everyone
know about the shoot?
**[09:06] Yayoi**
Huh? Should I not have told them?
**[09:09] Fuzuki**
What's the big deal? Don't be mad at Haru.
**[09:12] Mutsuki**
I'm not mad. It's just...
**[09:15] Fuzuki**
Everyone wants to support you.
**[09:17] Mutsuki**
But they're worrying too much.
**[09:20] Fuzuki**
There's no such thing as worrying too much
before an important photo shoot.
**[09:25] Mutsuki**
Unbelievable. Forget it.
**[09:34] Yayoi**
Oh, dear.
**[09:39] Shimotsuki**
Good morning, Hajime.
**[09:41] Mutsuki**
It's unusual for you to be up this early.
**[09:46] Shimotsuki**
Everyone likes your hands.
**[09:56] Mutsuki**
Everyone says they like these hands.
**[10:03] Shimotsuki**
What's this?
**[10:05] Mutsuki**
Tell me. What's so great about these hands?
**[10:19] Mutsuki**
What's so funny?
**[10:21] Shimotsuki**
You were just so cute.
I couldn't help myself.
**[10:26] Shimotsuki**
Sorry about that.
**[10:28] Shimotsuki**
But I do think it would be good for you
**[10:30] Shimotsuki**
to be a little more aware
of your own attractiveness.
**[10:38] Staff 1**
Okay, good!
**[10:39] Staff 1**
That concludes today's shoot.
**[10:42] All**
Good work.
**[10:44] Mutsuki**
Thank you.
**[10:49] Tsukishiro**
Good work.
**[10:50] Ogishima**
That really was impressive.
**[10:52] Tsukishiro**
We're looking forward to more tomorrow.
**[10:55] Suito**
We'll be photographing your hands tomorrow.
**[10:58] Mutsuki**
I know it's a bit late to ask, but are you
sure you're okay with using my hands?
**[11:03] Suito**
Yes. Your hands are the ones we want.
**[11:06] Mutsuki**
Very well.
**[11:08] Tsukishiro**
See you tomorrow, then.
**[11:27] Fuzuki**
Hey, you handsome man.
**[11:31] Fuzuki**
Wanna go for a drive with us?
**[11:34] Shimotsuki**
Hajime!
**[11:36] Yayoi**
This isn't so bad once in a while, right?
**[11:38] Mutsuki**
You guys...
**[11:40] Fuzuki**
Come on. Get in the car.
**[11:55] Mutsuki**
I wanted to see the beach...
**[11:57] Fuzuki**
You're the one who suddenly
said he wanted to see the ocean.
**[12:01] Fuzuki**
Don't be greedy.
**[12:02] Fuzuki**
You should be glad we got to come at all.
**[12:05] Shimotsuki**
I guess you're right.
**[12:07] Yayoi**
Think you'll make it to tomorrow's rehearsal?
**[12:09] Mutsuki**
Yeah. I'll rush over as soon
as the shoot's finished.
**[12:12] Fuzuki**
Good. Things are pretty dull without you.
**[12:16] Fuzuki**
Including this guy.
**[12:18] Shimotsuki**
What? You noticed?
**[12:20] Fuzuki**
It's kinda obvious.
**[12:23] Mutsuki**
Got it.
**[12:26] Yayoi**
Say, Hajime, what do you like about yourself?
**[12:29] Mutsuki**
Where did that come from?
**[12:33] Yayoi**
For me, it's this mole under my eye.
**[12:35] Yayoi**
It's my most attractive feature.
**[12:37] Fuzuki**
Yeah, that is nice.
**[12:40] Fuzuki**
Mine's probably...
**[12:42] Fuzuki**
My abs and forehead, I think.
**[12:45] Shimotsuki**
I like everything about myself.
**[12:48] Fuzuki**
I knew you'd say that.
**[12:51] Yayoi**
How about you, Hajime?
**[12:54] Mutsuki**
I've never thought about it.
**[12:56] Yayoi**
What?
**[12:57] Yayoi**
Really?
**[12:58] Mutsuki**
Yeah.
**[13:00] Yayoi**
I had no idea it was this bad.
**[13:03] Shimotsuki**
Then I'll tell you what *I* like about you!
**[13:07] Shimotsuki**
Could take until morning, though.
**[13:08] Fuzuki**
Some other time.
**[13:10] Yayoi**
I like your hands, Hajime.
**[13:13] Yayoi**
Unlike mine, they move so
dexterously and beautifully.
**[13:21] Shimotsuki**
My hands are pretty, too.
**[13:23] Shimotsuki**
Just look at them.
**[13:26] Fuzuki**
Of course yours are nice and pretty, Shun.
**[13:29] Fuzuki**
They never do any work.
**[13:30] Shimotsuki**
Kai, that's mean.
**[13:33] Mutsuki**
Are my hands really that great?
**[13:36] Yayoi**
How are you so oblivious to your own charm?
**[13:39] Mutsuki**
You keep suggesting that,
but I don't understand it.
**[13:43] Mutsuki**
My hands have been like this since I was born.
**[13:45] Mutsuki**
It's not like I've done anything to them.
**[13:48] Mutsuki**
When people compliment them,
honestly, I don't know how to react.
**[13:53] Shimotsuki**
I see.
**[13:55] Shimotsuki**
Hajime, you tend to look for the
reasons behind the praise you get.
**[13:59] Fuzuki**
You don't need a reason to like something.
**[14:02] Mutsuki**
It would be different if it were anything else,
but this is something that's just... me.
**[14:08] Mutsuki**
If they were the result of hard
work and self-improvement,
**[14:12] Mutsuki**
I could be proud of them.
**[14:14] Mutsuki**
But these hands...
**[14:16] Yayoi**
You're always so hard on yourself.
**[14:19] Shimotsuki**
You're so serious, Hajime.
**[14:37] Kisaragi**
Let's Chat Tonight!
**[14:39] All**
Yeah!
**[14:41] Kisaragi**
Yes, it's time for "Let's Chat Tonight,"
where we thoroughly discuss a single topic!
**[14:47] Shiwasu**
Tonight's topic is the appeal
of Hajime-san's hands.
**[14:51] Kisaragi**
I bet we'll have a lot to say on this one.
**[14:55] Yayoi**
Is this some kind of show?
**[14:57] Fuzuki**
Apparently not.
**[15:00] Shiwasu**
We'd like all of you to participate, as well.
**[15:04] Yayoi**
Shall we, then?
**[15:08] Mutsuki**
What do you think you're doing?
**[15:10] Shimotsuki**
Come on. Everyone's waiting.
**[15:15] Shiwasu**
All right, then!
**[15:17] Shiwasu**
Let's hear what everyone likes
about Hajime-san's hands.
**[15:22] Shiwasu**
I'll go first.
**[15:24] Shiwasu**
I like the way Hajime-san uses
his hands to praise my hard work.
**[15:27] Kisaragi**
I like that, too!
**[15:28] Kannazuki**
Me, too.
**[15:29] Minazuki**
Me three.
**[15:31] Shiwasu**
We got head pats again just this morning.
**[15:34] Kisaragi**
Yeah.
**[15:35] Kannazuki**
Lucky.
**[15:37] Minazuki**
Yeah.
**[15:38] Fuzuki**
That's a popular reason.
**[15:41] Kisaragi**
I like it when Hajime-san uses his hands
to scold me when I do something wrong.
**[15:48] Kisaragi**
It hurts sometimes, though.
**[15:50] Uzuki**
It hurts, but I can't quit it.
**[15:52] Satsuki**
Hey, now...
**[15:54] Kannazuki**
I like how he always responds with a wave
**[15:56] Kannazuki**
when I greet him in the morning,
no matter how tired he is.
**[16:00] Yayoi**
You always seem grouchy
when I go to wake you.
**[16:04] Mutsuki**
Do I?
**[16:05] Yayoi**
Wow, you didn't realize it?
**[16:08] Minazuki**
I like his hand placement
when he plays the piano.
**[16:12] Yayoi**
Apparently he's been playing
to relax recently.
**[16:15] Minazuki**
Really? I'd love to play with you.
**[16:19] Mutsuki**
Next time.
**[16:21] Satsuki**
I like seeing the way Hajime-san pets Kuroda.
**[16:27] Shiwasu**
Is Kuroda agreeing with you?
**[16:31] Satsuki**
Looks like it.
**[16:34] Uzuki**
I like the way Hajime-san silently hands me
strawberry milk when I'm feeling down.
**[16:40] Minazuki**
He gave me pudding once.
**[16:42] Kisaragi**
I got chocolate.
**[16:44] Kisaragi**
Always there to provide when you're
feeling down... A true helping hand!
**[16:48] Hazuki**
I've got one!
**[16:49] Hazuki**
I like how he slaps you on the back
when you're not sure what to do.
**[16:54] Nagatsuki**
A push from Hajime-san
does help steel your resolve.
**[16:58] Nagatsuki**
I like the way Hajime-san pulls you up
when you're struggling with something.
**[17:03] Hazuki**
We all like that.
**[17:05] All**
Uh-huh.
**[17:07] Mutsuki**
You guys...
**[17:10] Hazuki**
Nice reaction, Hajime-san.
**[17:12] Hazuki**
Let's keep going!
**[17:14] Satsuki**
I like how his hands seem like they
could cook anything he put his mind to.
**[17:18] Nagatsuki**
I always end up watching his hands
with anything cooking-related.
**[17:21] Nagatsuki**
The way he holds a knife,
the way he mixes things...
**[17:26] Nagatsuki**
Even the way he uses his hands
when he eats my cooking.
**[17:28] Satsuki**
He does hold his chopsticks beautifully.
**[17:30] Uzuki**
I wish I could mimic those movements.
**[17:33] Shiwasu**
I know what you mean!
**[17:34] Hazuki**
What else?
**[17:37] Hazuki**
You can't forget how expressive
they are when he's dancing.
**[17:40] Hazuki**
Those hands!
**[17:42] Uzuki**
Speaking of, he always looks
great holding a mic, too.
**[17:45] Uzuki**
The way he puts his hand on his chest
during the hook is awesome, as well.
**[17:50] Yayoi**
The way he touches his in-ear monitor
while MCing is kind of cute.
**[17:55] All**
Oh, yeah.
**[17:57] Mutsuki**
You guys are watching me too closely.
**[17:58] Kisaragi**
Haru-san, got anything else?
**[18:01] Yayoi**
Well...
**[18:03] Yayoi**
I like how powerful his hands are when
he's getting us pumped before a concert.
**[18:07] Fuzuki**
When I see that, it really feels
like the show's about to start.
**[18:11] Yayoi**
Words can't describe how much
strength those hands have given us.
**[18:15] Mutsuki**
Haru...
**[18:17] Shimotsuki**
Hajime, your hands aren't just attractive
because of their appearance or shape.
**[18:23] Shimotsuki**
There are also the things, emotions,
and possibilities they create.
**[18:29] Shimotsuki**
It's because everything that
has value resides within them.
**[18:34] Yayoi**
It's not just your hands.
**[18:36] Yayoi**
The same is probably true
for your back and legs as well,
**[18:39] Yayoi**
but it's the most obvious with your hands.
**[18:44] Yayoi**
Hajime, we hope you'll continue
leading us with those hands.
**[18:49] Shiwasu**
Please.
**[18:50] All**
Please.
**[18:53] Mutsuki**
You guys...
**[19:05] Yayoi**
Do you understand now?
**[19:22] Mutsuki**
All right.
**[19:25] Staff 1**
Okay, let's get today's photo shoot started.
**[19:30] Staff 2**
Mutsuki-san, please stand by.
**[19:33] Tsukishiro**
We'll be right there.
**[19:34] Tsukishiro**
Are you ready?
**[19:38] Mutsuki**
Yes.
**[19:44] Camera**
Well, Hajime-kun, shall we get started?
**[19:46] Mutsuki**
Yes, please.
**[19:58] Staff 2**
He's even more amazing than yesterday.
**[20:01] Staff 1**
Q-Quit spacing out!
**[20:03] Staff 2**
B-Back at you!
**[20:05] Camera**
Okay. That should do it.
**[20:07] Mutsuki**
Thank you.
**[20:09] Camera**
Should we take a few more?
**[20:11] Mutsuki**
No. I gave everything I had.
**[20:14] Camera**
Now *that's* the expression I wanted to shoot.
**[20:20] Ogishima**
Mutsuki-san, you were great.
**[20:22] Suito**
Mutsuki-san, I knew you'd be amazing!
**[20:27] Mutsuki**
Thank you.
**[20:32] Staff 1**
That concludes the photo shoot.
**[20:34] Staff 1**
Thanks, everyone.
**[20:46] Kisaragi**
Hajime-san!
**[20:48] Mutsuki**
Looks like I made it in time.
**[20:50] Yayoi**
Sounds like it went well.
**[20:53] Mutsuki**
What's next?
**[20:55] Fuzuki**
You're ready to get to it, huh?
**[20:57] Fuzuki**
You don't need to go over what
we've been working on until now?
**[21:00] Mutsuki**
Not a problem.
***SIGN*** Step back into a turn Finish by maintaining position while taking three steps together At the same time, step inside in unison while maintaining an up and down motion
**[21:02] Mutsuki**
A talented officer filled me in on all the details.
**[21:09] Fuzuki**
So you're all ready to go.
**[21:11] Mutsuki**
Yeah.
**[21:14] Shimotsuki**
Then let's take it from the opening.
**[21:17] Shimotsuki**
Now all twelve of us can
finally dance together.
**[21:21] Mutsuki**
Shun...
**[21:23] Shimotsuki**
Come on, now. Hurry up.
Aren't you going to help us nail this?
**[21:27] Mutsuki**
Of course.
