[00:05] ---
    So that's how it is...
    Me and Senpai, compatible...
[00:10] ---
    It's eye-poppingly good!
[00:12] ---
    Why aren't you dating?
[00:24] ---
    Mom! Hana's drowning!
[00:26] ---
    What?! Hana! Stay with me, now!

    Wants to Be Number One!"
[02:06] ---
    Sooo basically, it would
    seem that Senpai likes me.
[02:12] ---
    I'm telling you,
    I'm a femme fatale--a femme fatale!
[02:18] ---
    Oh, uh... sure.
[02:19] ---
    Is that what happened
    after the school festival?
[02:21] ---
    That's right! I'd wondered a little,
    you know, for a while now.
[02:27] ---
    But with a reaction like that?
[02:29] ---
    Right on target!
[02:31] ---
    What? This late in the game?
[02:33] ---
    Still on that, huh?
[02:35] ---
    So that's why she's all smiles today.
[02:38] ---
    Look at her, beaming with joy.
[02:41] ---
    Hey, Uzaki, looked in a mirror recently?
[02:44] ---
    Huh? I mean, I wash my face
    and brush my teeth, so yeah.
[02:49] ---
    She's in no state to hear the irony.
[02:51] ---
    Still, though...
[02:54] ---
    Setting aside Uzaki's logic for now,
[02:56] ---
    this is about the last thing
    we expected to happen!
[02:58] ---
    But...
[03:00] ---
    I can't believe those two
    useless twerps made it this far!
[03:04] ---
    But...
[03:05] ---
    We're so close... we're almost there...
[03:08] ---
    And yet... though
    it's right before our eyes...
[03:15] ---
    There's no way
    they'll get to the finish line.
[03:19] ---
    What do we do now?
[03:21] ---
    It's up to those two, wouldn't you say?
[03:24] ---
    Not much we can do from the sidelines.
[03:27] ---
    I have been thinking lately about
    letting this evolve at their own pace...
[03:35] ---
    Your daughter's not looking so hot.
[03:37] ---
    Maybe because a partial goal is in sight?
[03:41] ---
    Once the slaughter's over,
    it becomes a whole new kind of torture.
[03:45] ---
    So this time around...
[03:47] ---
    ...we have to come to their rescue.
[03:50] ---
    By the way, where's Sak?
[03:53] ---
    Hmm? Oh, Sakurai has the day off.
[03:56] ---
    Senpai? He bought another
    new game and rushed back home!
[04:01] ---
    And with all those unfinished games
    just piling up, too.
[04:04] ---
    That rascal!
[04:06] ---
    Wow, she pounced on that fast.
[04:09] ---
    You don't play with him?
[04:11] ---
    I think he wants to enjoy
    the first playthrough by himself.
[04:14] ---
    I hate to stand in the way of his fun.
[04:17] ---
    That's surprisingly thoughtful of her.
[04:20] ---
    She's usually barging in
    over there uninvited.
[04:26] ---
    I mean... he likes me, right?
[04:31] ---
    She's made up her mind!
[04:33] ---
    So.... me going to his
    house alone would be...
[04:37] ---
    Well... you know.
[04:39] ---
    What?!
[04:41] ---
    She's not being thoughtful--oh, no.
[04:44] ---
    Uzaki's just plain scared!
[04:46] ---
    What a hassle...
[04:49] ---
    Aren't you kind of past that point?
[04:52] ---
    You've been to
    Sak's place plenty of times.
[04:55] ---
    You've even spent the night there.
[04:58] ---
    And wasn't it you who said he was
    the safest creature in the whole world?
[05:03] ---
    W-Well, yeah, but...
[05:05] ---
    After that fortune-telling...
[05:08] ---
    I thought maybe he
    might've changed his mind.
[05:12] ---
    Are you kid--
[05:14] ---
    Ami has snapped!
[05:16] ---
    I don't know... It would take
    a lot for that square to change.
[05:21] ---
    But we can't know for sure--being
    a proper adult man and all.
[05:26] ---
    Like you're one to talk.
[05:31] ---
    A blow-up won't accomplish anything.
[05:33] ---
    Sorry...
[05:35] ---
    But with everything
    that's happened thus far,
[05:38] ---
    I just got... annoyed.
[05:42] ---
    It happens.
[05:43] ---
    They're fine at first, but things
    get awkward as time goes on.
[05:49] ---
    I figured Uzaki would be
    full speed ahead--
[05:51] ---
    who knew she'd be so passive
    when push came to shove?
[05:55] ---
    Which means--
[05:57] ---
    That Sak and this Uzaki...
[05:59] ---
    I can only picture them hovering
    just in front of the finish line.
[06:03] ---
    It's no use.
[06:04] ---
    I can't keep looking out
    for them after their epiphany!
[06:07] ---
    I'm dying to see how this ends!
[06:09] ---
    But...
[06:12] ---
    We definitely can't keep
    this up the way they are now.
[06:15] ---
    What a rude rendition.
[06:19] ---
    "Senpai
    (Introvert)"
[06:22] ---
    What's up, Senpai?
[06:24] ---
    I beat it solo, but I'm kind
    of starting to lose interest.
[06:28] ---
    If you buy a copy, too,
    I'll co-op with you.
[06:31] ---
    Seriously?! I'm pretty busy
    over here, I'll have you know!
[06:35] ---
    --Oh, okay. Some other time--
    --No, it's fine!
[06:38] ---
    I'll help you out, if you insist.
[06:41] ---
    I mean, I guess--if I have to!
[06:45] ---
    Man, I turned him down and everything,
[06:49] ---
    but he's just so insistent!
[06:56] ---
    Well, I'm off!
[06:58] ---
    So you'll go when you're invited?!
[07:01] ---
    What's your take?
[07:03] ---
    Well, with one thing and another,
    I'm getting more and more ticked off!
[07:06] ---
    I hear you. I'll come up
    with a new strategy.
[07:11] ---
    It's high time we gave
    those two a jump-start.
[07:14] ---
    We just have to.
[07:16] ---
    And so their own co-op began.
[07:20] ---
    I don't know about this...
[07:22] ---
    Uzaki in particular is
    overlooking a crucial point.
[07:26] ---
    We have to tell her that much.
[07:28] ---
    In which case...
[07:30] ---
    Can we toss them in a locked room
    for a few days? Or on a deserted island?
[07:35] ---
    No--a snowy mountain. It's almost winter.
[07:37] ---
    If we can just trap them alone
    together in some extreme situation...
[07:41] ---
    Maybe something a little less... unusual.
[07:44] ---
    "Asia Café"
    "Some Days Later..."
[07:49] ---
    Welcome!
[07:51] ---
    Hey, gang.
[07:53] ---
    Sakaki! You're here a lot lately.
[07:56] ---
    Senpai has the day off today.
[07:58] ---
    Looks that way.
[08:00] ---
    Oh, I know.
[08:01] ---
    That's how we planned it.
[08:03] ---
    Sparkle.
[08:04] ---
    They'd tweaked Sakurai's and Uzaki's
    shifts so they'd come in separately
[08:08] ---
    and be tackled one by one:
[08:10] ---
    the so-called "Siege of Uzaki."
[08:14] ---
    Then I said as much, too!
[08:15] ---
    "Closed"
[08:17] ---
    And then Senpai--know what he did?
[08:19] ---
    She chattered away till closing time.
    Still as giddy as ever.
[08:24] ---
    It's been about a week since the festival,
    and no movement--just gloating.
[08:30] ---
    The finish line's in sight,
    and we're stuck in a holding pattern.
[08:34] ---
    No, Ami--calm down.
[08:37] ---
    Today's the day we give
    Uzaki a kick in the pants!
[08:40] ---
    But how, when she's full
    of such full-throttle cheer?
[08:46] ---
    Yeah, but Uzaki...
[08:48] ---
    It's fine to gloat and all, but are you
    sure you can let your guard down?
[08:53] ---
    My guard?
[08:54] ---
    I've been thinking.
    This "Sak likes Uzaki" thing--
[08:58] ---
    you're just... saying that, right?
[09:00] ---
    Th-This man...!
[09:02] ---
    Oh, my. He really went there.
[09:04] ---
    That--
[09:05] ---
    That's not... true... probably.
[09:09] ---
    Did you see how Sak feels?
[09:12] ---
    I think you need to make sure.
[09:14] ---
    M-Make sure?
[09:17] ---
    You might not know this, but Sak's
    pretty popular with his classmates.
[09:22] ---
    He's what?!
[09:24] ---
    We count a lot of Sakurai
    fans among our customers, too.
[09:27] ---
    He's a nice boy.
[09:29] ---
    You know that, right?
[09:31] ---
    Wha-What?
[09:33] ---
    Sakurai?
[09:34] ---
    He makes a scary first impression--and
    he seems hard to get close to.
[09:40] ---
    But when you do get up close,
    he's earnest--and kind!
[09:44] ---
    Right?
[09:45] ---
    There might be girls in our smaller
    classes who have their eyes on Sakurai.
[09:49] ---
    OMG, I said it!
[09:50] ---
    He does his work properly and all.
    He's really a good kid!
[09:54] ---
    If I were a little younger,
    I'd be going after him myself!
[10:01] ---
    What is this...
    back sweat, all of a sudden...
[10:06] ---
    But with Uzaki always hanging around,
    they know he's not unattached.
[10:12] ---
    In short,
[10:13] ---
    Sak's a great guy once
    you get used to seeing him!
[10:15] ---
    A regular hunk, with conditions!
[10:17] ---
    A hunk--with conditions?!
[10:21] ---
    The most father and
    daughter have nodded all year.
[10:24] ---
    That's what I mean about
    letting your guard down.
[10:27] ---
    He's a container of fries in
    a flock of hungry seagulls.
[10:31] ---
    You should stake your claim
    sooner rather than later.
[10:36] ---
    Heck, even Asai's been giving
    Sak the mostlascivious looks.
[10:44] ---
    --Is that true, Ami?!
    --I-I-I have not either!
[10:47] ---
    What? You're sneaking peeks
    at him all the time.
[10:50] ---
    Please don't lie.
[10:52] ---
    I hardly ever come here, and I've noticed.
[10:55] ---
    Sh-Shut up!
[10:56] ---
    I mean, he is pretty nicely built.
[11:01] ---
    So you do stare at him!
[11:03] ---
    Not like that, I don't! Rude!
[11:05] ---
    Yes, you do.
[11:07] ---
    Dad!
[11:09] ---
    You do tone it down around customers.
[11:11] ---
    Da-ad! I do not either
    give him lecherous looks!
[11:15] ---
    Sakaki, if you would?
[11:22] ---
    See? There's one now.
[11:24] ---
    I've seen that look before!
[11:26] ---
    N-No!
[11:27] ---
    I can't help it, Hana!
    My gaze just gets sucked in!
[11:31] ---
    So she quietly acknowledges it.
[11:32] ---
    I-It's not like I like
    Sakurai or anything!
[11:36] ---
    Oh, but I don't hate him, either...
[11:39] ---
    I thought he was likeable,
    but--how can I say this--
[11:41] ---
    that... sparkle of his? No, not that...
[11:43] ---
    Um, er, let's see...
[11:45] ---
    I know:
[11:46] ---
    I'm only after his body!
[11:51] ---
    Not like that!
[11:54] ---
    You get it now, right, Uzaki?
[11:56] ---
    Sak could have even more
    sexbeasts like this in his orbit.
[11:58] ---
    "Sexbeast"
[12:00] ---
    Don't call me that!
[12:02] ---
    It's nice to be giddy, but if you think
    you want to be with Sak like that...
[12:07] ---
    ...you might want to
    hurry things up a bit.
[12:10] ---
    Yeah, but...
[12:12] ---
    ...even so...
[12:15] ---
    Hey, everybody.
[12:17] ---
    Ah, Sakurai.
[12:20] ---
    Didn't you have the day off, Sak?
[12:22] ---
    Uzaki said we'd eat at
    my place once she was off work,
[12:26] ---
    but it gets dark so early nowadays
[12:29] ---
    that I thought I should come get her.
[12:32] ---
    Exactly that kind of thing.
[12:35] ---
    J-Just let me get changed.
[12:38] ---
    Sure.
[12:39] ---
    Wanna join us, Itsuhito?
[12:40] ---
    Ooh, sorry. I've got crazy
     important stuff to do.
[12:44] ---
    Oh.
[12:46] ---
    Say, Ami.
[12:47] ---
    You okay? You've been staring
    at the ceiling this whole time.
[12:51] ---
    I'm sorry, Sakurai.
    This will have to do for today.
[12:55] ---
    This must be exactly what
    they mean by "I can't face him"...
[12:58] ---
    What?
[13:01] ---
    Well, we've kindled that fire.
    Wonder how it'll turn out?
[13:05] ---
    I feel so much better!
[13:07] ---
    At the great expense
    of your dignity, but still!
[13:13] ---
    Ugh! I hate you!
[13:14] ---
    I know.
[13:24] ---
    You're so quiet today, Uzaki.
[13:27] ---
    I-I wouldn't say that.
[13:30] ---
    Now, what should
    I make for dinner tonight?
[13:33] ---
    I'm itching to get started!
[13:48] ---
    All right.
[13:49] ---
    Next, the breadcrumbs.
[13:49] ---
    "Breadcrumbs"
[13:51] ---
    You don't have to measure
    them that carefully, Sakurai.
[13:55] ---
    You're infuriating!
[13:57] ---
    Rough estimates
    are fine for stuff like this!
[13:59] ---
    But croquettes are my first fried food.
[14:03] ---
    If I happen to screw them up somehow...
[14:06] ---
    But it's so exhausting to weigh
    so precisely every single time.
[14:10] ---
    Then what should I do?
[14:12] ---
    Well...
[14:14] ---
    Let me show you how to eyeball amounts.
[14:17] ---
    Eyeballing?!
[14:18] ---
    Are you sure a beginner
    can use such a high-level skill?
[14:23] ---
    It's not particularly high-level...
[14:26] ---
    As the name suggests,
[14:28] ---
    you use your eyes
    to remember the right amount.
[14:33] ---
    Here's the 10 grams
    you measured out earlier.
[14:36] ---
    Got that?
[14:38] ---
    I think so.
[14:40] ---
    Now pour out about
    the same amount of salt.
[14:42] ---
    All right.
[14:49] ---
    Okay!
[14:50] ---
    Really?
[14:51] ---
    Sure. It doesn't have
    to be an exact match.
[14:58] ---
    Sakurai really is so serious, isn't he?
[15:01] ---
    That's my senpai for you.
[15:07] ---
    You should stake your claim
    sooner rather than later.
[15:12] ---
    Hana?!
[15:12] ---
    Huh? Oh! It's nothing--nothing at all.
[15:20] ---
    Time for a break.
[15:26] ---
    Thanks.
[15:27] ---
    Senpai can be the obsessive type,
[15:30] ---
    so he might keep going
    till he's mastered it.
[15:32] ---
    You don't mind, Mom?
[15:34] ---
    Oh, it's fine by me.
[15:37] ---
    I mean, he is helping to make our dinner.
[15:40] ---
    Well, I'm glad you're okay with it.
[15:44] ---
    Although that's not the
    only reason he comes over.
[15:52] ---
    Mom, what do you think of Sakurai?
[15:56] ---
    Is this it? Is it finally happening?
[16:00] ---
    It is not.
[16:02] ---
    Wh-Why do you ask?
[16:04] ---
    Well, um... some people have been saying
[16:08] ---
    that he's pretty popular with the girls.
[16:11] ---
    Huh?
[16:12] ---
    So I thought I'd... get your opinion.
[16:17] ---
    Oh? Does that mean...?
[16:23] ---
    Lemme go feed them.
[16:24] ---
    C'mon.
[16:26] ---
    Hana?
[16:31] ---
    You might not know this, but Sak's
    pretty popular with his classmates.
[16:36] ---
    No. No way! He absolutely is not either!
[16:39] ---
    But... what if...
[16:44] ---
    "*Uzaki's delusion"
[16:48] ---
    Here.
[16:50] ---
    Sakurai...
[16:52] ---
    You okay?
[16:53] ---
    A class drinking party is
    no excuse to go overboard.
[16:58] ---
    You're so kind, Sakurai.
[17:00] ---
    Of course--we're classmates.
[17:04] ---
    Classmates, huh?
[17:11] ---
    H-Hey, get a hold of yourself...
[17:19] ---
    I... I love you, Sakurai.
[17:26] ---
    Me, too!
[17:27] ---
    --And me!
    --So do I!
    --Me, too! --And me!
[17:29] ---
    --Sakurai!
    --Sakurai!
[17:35] ---
    Nope nope nope nope nope!
[17:37] ---
    I'm the one Senpai likes!
[17:44] ---
    I wonder what Hana
    wanted to ask me earlier.
[17:48] ---
    This doesn't feel right...
[17:50] ---
    Um--
[17:52] ---
    I'm so sorry! I didn't
    mean to startle you.
[17:55] ---
    No, no, I'm sorry! What is it?
[18:00] ---
    I've formed all the
    croquettes into round patties.
[18:03] ---
    Okay, we'll bread them next.
[18:06] ---
    All right.
[18:12] ---
    I went and startled her.
[18:14] ---
    I should have called
    to her from the kitchen.
[18:17] ---
    But what should I have called her?
[18:20] ---
    Ma'am? Miss? Mrs. Uzaki?
[18:26] ---
    Er...
[18:28] ---
    What's up?
[18:29] ---
    Could you... tell me
    your first name, please?
[18:37] ---
    Why? Whatever for?
[18:39] ---
    It would so dramatically close
    the distance between us...
[18:42] ---
    Don't tell me this boy is...?
[18:48] ---
    I have a favor to ask.
[18:50] ---
    Won't you let me
    call you by your first name?
[18:55] ---
    But... that would be...
[18:57] ---
    Y-Your name? No--you can't!
[19:00] ---
    You have a husband and kids!
    You can't give your heart to this child!
[19:04] ---
    Good.
[19:06] ---
    If you won't let me call you by your name,
[19:09] ---
    it only shows how prominent
    I am in your mind.
[19:16] ---
    It does?
[19:19] ---
    It's... Tsuki. Tsuki Uzaki.
[19:25] ---
    I'm still safe.
[19:26] ---
    If I'm just giving him
    my name... I'm still safe.
[19:29] ---
    And so her own strange
    game of chicken had begun.
[19:32] ---
    Then can I call you Ms. Tsuki?
[19:35] ---
    Y-Yes, please... if it's easier...
[19:38] ---
    Th-Thou mayst.
[19:40] ---
    Is this a period piece?
[19:45] ---
    They're ready once the outside
    is an appetizing golden-brown.
[19:48] ---
    G-Got it.
[19:50] ---
    Hey, Senpai! Are they almost ready?
[19:54] ---
    Not yet, Uzaki. Can't let my guard down.
[19:57] ---
    If this explodes, the whole
    house'll be blown sky-high!
[20:00] ---
    As if!
[20:01] ---
    You're way too scared of frying,
    even for a beginner!
[20:05] ---
    Honestly...
[20:08] ---
    I just can't get a reading on those two.
[20:13] ---
    But...
[20:14] ---
    There's something I should
    say as a mother--as an adult.
[20:19] ---
    Hana? A moment?
[20:22] ---
    When you asked me
    what I thought of Sakurai--
[20:27] ---
    you must feel unsure about him somehow.
[20:32] ---
    I won't ask about it now.
    I just wanted to tell you one thing:
[20:36] ---
    The thing about boys, first and foremost,
[20:39] ---
    is that they should be sincere.
[20:42] ---
    Sincere...
[20:44] ---
    They're done!
[20:48] ---
    Just look how nicely you fried them!
[20:51] ---
    You think so?
[20:54] ---
    Want to try my very first croquettes?
[20:58] ---
    If I have to.
    I'll check if they're poisonous.
[21:07] ---
    How is it, Uzaki?
[21:12] ---
    Seeing that you learned
    from my mom... it's delicious!
[21:17] ---
    Putting aside Senpai's sincerity for now,
[21:21] ---
    what worries me more...
[21:26] ---
    "Sexbeast"
[21:30] ---
    Better hurry it up, Uzaki.
[21:35] ---
    ...is everyone else.
[21:36] ---
    It really is all thanks to Ms. Tsuki!
[21:40] ---
    That's one more dish in my repertoire.
    Thank you so much!
[21:45] ---
    Not at all!
[21:47] ---
    You catch on fast. A model student!
[21:51] ---
    Oh, gosh!
[21:53] ---
    Looking forward to
    my next lesson, Ms. Tsuki!
[21:58] ---
    Everyone else...
[22:01] ---
    Everyone... else...
[22:03] ---
    
[22:05] ---
