SIGN    Huh? Hime-chan, the next class is in the classroom!
SIGN    Really? Got it, thanks.
SIGN    Hime-chan, are you ready yet?
SIGN    Sorry, Kanoko!
    The teacher's errand will take a bit longer.
SIGN    Okay, I'll go ahead without you.
[00:25] Kanoko
    The feelings that arose that day,
    I've kept hidden until now.
[00:30] Kanoko
    Until now, and going forward as well.
[02:19] Sumika
    I thought you wanted me to become Blume.
[02:22] Sumika
    Won't you listen to my wish?
[02:24] Kanoko
    No, it's fine. I'll find another
     way to get Hime-chan back.
[02:30] Kanoko
    Please stay out of my way.
[02:33] Sumika
    If I become Blume, I plan to make it
    so that Schwestern can't be cancelled.
[02:38] Sumika
    Those two will be sisters forever.
[02:41] Kanoko
    What's wrong with you?!
    Why would you go out of your way to—
[02:44] Sumika
    Because you're trying to break it!
[02:46] Sumika
    You're the same as how we were in the past.
[02:50] Sumika
    You're trying to bring
    romance into the salon.
[02:57] Sumika
    Before the two of you and Yano-chan
    were here, we had two other students.
[03:02] Sumika
    But romance destroyed our relationship.
[03:08] Sumika
    I want you to know, Kanoko-chan,
    what happened at the salon then...
[03:14] (Flashback) Mai
    Thank you for waiting! Here is
    Mai-san's recommended tea, the Lächeln!
[03:19] (Flashback) Mai's Customer
    Mai-san, you're as cute as ever!
[03:22] (Flashback) Saionji
    Here is my recommended tea,
    the Schneeglöckchen.
[03:27] Sumika
    One was a second-year called Saionji.
[03:30] Sumika
    She, Mai-san, and I were the original cast.
[03:34] (Flashback) Goeido
    Oh no, I'm still very inexperienced.
[03:39] Sumika
    Another third-year joined
    afterwards, called Goeido.
[03:43] Sumika
    She became popular among
    the guests immediately.
[03:46] Sumika
    It was impossible to read
    whatever Goeido was thinking,
[03:49] Sumika
    and she was quick to grasp
    other people's weaknesses.
[03:52] Sumika
    She was hard to like,
[03:54] Sumika
    but I have to admit she had charm.
[03:58] Goeido
    Saionji-san.
[04:00] (Flashback) Goeido
    Saionji-san.
[04:02] (Flashback) Goeido
    I took this order, but...
[04:04] (Flashback) Goeido
    What was I supposed to do next?
[04:07] (Flashback) Saionji
    Oh, in that case, I'll take care of it...
[04:12] (Flashback) Goeido
    But I can't rely on you
    all the time. I want to learn.
[04:16] (Flashback) Goeido
    Would you teach me again?
[04:25] Sumika
    Goeido was approaching
    Saionji-san romantically,
[04:30] Sumika
    and I could tell Saionji-san
    was attracted to her.
[04:36] (Flashback) Female Customer A
    What are those two whispering
     so secretly about?
[04:40] (Flashback) Female Customer B
    No, don't pry.
[04:44] (Flashback) Sumika
    I shouldn't care. If she's going to teach her,
    she'll do it back in the dishup.
[04:49] Sumika
    Who cares? It's fine.
[04:52] Sumika
    It's small things like these
    that we all let slide.
[04:56] Sumika
    That's how Goeido operates.
[04:59] (Flashback) Goeido
    Tachibana-san.
[05:01] (Flashback) Goeido
    You stopped paying attention to me.
[05:04] (Flashback) Sumika
    You're always learning from the second-year,
    so there's nothing for me to do.
[05:10] (Flashback) Goeido
    If that's how you see it,
    I suppose there isn't a problem.
[05:14] (Flashback) Goeido
    I was just worried, though, because
    Saionji-san is always spending time with me,
[05:19] (Flashback) Goeido
    and that it displeases you.
[05:22] (Flashback) Sumika
    Why now?
[05:26] (Flashback) Sumika
    You need her to learn
    how to do the work, right?
[05:28] (Flashback) Sumika
    I'm not one to get upset
    over small things like that.
[05:33] (Flashback) Goeido
    Is that so?
[05:34] (Flashback) Goeido
    Now I feel bad for Saionji-san.
[05:38] (Flashback) Goeido
    If the roles were reversed,
    I wouldn't like that at all.
[05:40] (Flashback) Goeido
    My own little sister being closer to some
    other older student instead of me?
[05:57] Kanoko
    A little sister...?
[05:59] Sumika
    Ah... yeah. Saionji-san
    was my "little sister."
[06:05] Sumika
    We got along fine, too.
    But our relationship wasn't romantic.
[06:18] Sumika
    I stood no chance against Goeido,
    who approached her with romantic intent.
[06:24] (Flashback) Male Customer A
    Turmoil?! This is turmoil!
[06:26] (Flashback) Male Customer B
    Their sisterhood is in jeopardy?!
[06:26] (Flashback) Saionji
    Here is the Ceylon tea.
[06:28] (Flashback) Female Customer A
    I support you, Tachibana-san!
[06:30] (Flashback) Saionji
    Please use the sugar pot if you like.
[06:30] (Flashback) Female Customer A
    I'll order your Schwestern Tea!
[06:30] (Flashback) Goeido
    Don't be afraid, Sumika-chan.
[06:33] (Flashback) Goeido
    I'm only doing this to please the customers.
[06:36] (Flashback) Goeido
    There's nothing to be worried about.
[06:41] Sumika
    What could I do?
[06:44] Sumika
    That's how she operated.
[06:47] Sumika
    Just stacking up small things like that,
    until it was impossible to turn back.
[06:55] Sumika
    I think, by that time,
    they were already lovers.
[06:59] (Flashback) Goeido
    Okay, see you. Good work today.
[07:04] (Flashback) Saionji
    Thank you for today, Yoko-san.
[07:04] Sumika
    The closer they got, the more
    it ruined our sisterhood.
[07:06] (Flashback) Goeido
    Same to you too, Sumika-chan.
[07:09] (Flashback) Goeido
    We had fun today too, didn't we?
[07:17] (Flashback) Sumika
    She seems like bad news.
[07:23] (Flashback) Saionji
    You don't understand, Sumika.
[07:25] (Flashback) Saionji
    You've never been in love.
[07:29] (Flashback) Mai
    Good work, guys! I'll close up,
    so you're all free to go.
[07:33] (Flashback) Saionji
    Mai-san, would it be possible for me to
    work more on the weekends?
[07:37] (Flashback) Mai
    Huh?! What about weekdays, then?
[07:39] (Flashback) Saionji
    I'd like to work less on weekdays.
[07:40] (Flashback) Mai
    Hmm. Yoko-san works the weekends,
    so we're covered there.
[07:46] (Flashback) Saionji
    I'll try to work on the weekdays too, then.
[07:54] Sumika
    Is love really all that important?
[08:00] Sumika
    Does it take precedence over everything else?
[08:10] (Flashback) Mai
    Tachibana-sama!
[08:12] (Flashback) Mai
    You're not doing any work!
[08:15] (Flashback) Sumika
    Mai-san, I'm going to leave you
    alone for a moment.
[08:18] (Flashback) Mai
    Huh?
[08:20] (Flashback) Mai
    Wait, huh?
[08:23] (Flashback) Mai
    All of the elder sisters have gone away!
[08:29] (Flashback) Customers
    Good luck, Mai-san! We support you!
[08:29] Sumika
    I should have stopped them much earlier.
[08:32] Sumika
    If only I had prevented them from
    bringing romance into the salon...
[08:46] (Flashback) Sumika
    What... are you doing?
[08:52] (Flashback) Goeido
    Oh.
[08:54] (Flashback) Goeido
    It's not nice, interfering
    with other people's romance.
[08:58] (Flashback) Sumika
    Why are you wearing the Kreuz?!
[09:00] (Flashback) Saionji
    Sumika!
[09:03] (Flashback) Saionji
    Sorry, I...
[09:06] (Flashback) Saionji
    I want to become Schwestern with Yoko-san.
[09:10] (Flashback) Saionji
    Sumika, please take off your Kreuz.
[09:15] Sumika
    The Schwestern relationship
    between Saionji-san and I was canceled.
[09:18] Sumika
    Goeido became her elder sister instead.
[09:21] Sumika
    Still, I tried to believe she'd
     be a better elder sister than me.
[09:27] Sumika
    The sisters who were also lovers
    were extremely close, of course.
[09:32] Sumika
    It's like they were lost in their own world.
[09:34] Sumika
    Liebe, reality, all mixed up.
[09:37] Sumika
    I thought, "So this is what romance is like."
[09:40] Sumika
    I tried to convince myself that things were fine.
[09:48] Sumika
    But it wasn't.
[09:50] (Flashback) Goeido
    Well, I guess this is goodbye.
[09:54] (Flashback) Goeido
    We had fun, didn't we?
[09:56] Sumika
    Goeido quit Liebe because
    of her real job, or something.
[10:00] Sumika
    She threw away Saionji-san
    and the Schwestern so easily.
[10:04] Sumika
    Saionji-san was the only one
    who'd been serious about it.
[10:10] Sumika
    After being abandoned like that, Saionji-san
    couldn't keep working at the salon.
[10:16] Sumika
    So their romance destroyed our relationship.
[10:21] Kanoko
    I don't care. I don't know those people.
[10:25] Sumika
    Our job is to be friendly to each other,
    as students of Liebe Girls' Academy.
[10:31] Sumika
    I think, to do that, the best way is for us
     to actually be close to each other.
[10:36] Sumika
    But romance is out of the question.
    That's what destroys us.
[10:41] Sumika
    Just like how you're
    trying to destroy us now.
[10:44] Sumika
    So, Kanoko-chan, your romantic
    feelings towards Hime-chan are...
[10:46] Kanoko
    I won't...
[10:48] Kanoko
    I won't be "the good kid"...
[10:52] Kanoko
    No!
[10:54] Kanoko
    I will never give up on Hime-chan!
[11:00] Kanoko
    Please just leave us alone!
[11:03] Kanoko
    The sisterhood, the Blume, I don't care.
[11:06] Sumika
    As long as you're in love with Hime-chan,
[11:09] Sumika
    you'll want to break up the current
    relationships at some point.
[11:12] Sumika
    We won't be able to
    continue as we are, right?
[11:16] Sumika
    That's how you feel about Hime-chan, right?
[11:19] Kanoko
    I'll never act on it.
[11:21] Kanoko
    Things are great the way they are now.
[11:23] Kanoko
    Hime-chan won't ever
    fall in love with anyone.
[11:26] Kanoko
    I will always be her friend.
[11:28] Kanoko
    That's what I want.
[11:30] Kanoko
    Love confessions or things
     like that won't ever happen.
[11:34] Kanoko
    I just want to stay by her side.
[11:36] Sumika
    What does that even mean? I don't get it.
[11:39] Sumika
    That sounds pointless.
[11:40] Kanoko
    Besides, if you want to ban romance...
[11:44] Kanoko
    I'm not the one who you should say that to...
[11:50] Kanoko
    I'm leaving. We're done talking, right?
[11:53] Sumika
    So you won't stop?
[11:55] Kanoko
    There's nothing to stop.
[11:58] Kanoko
    I won't do anything.
[12:00] Kanoko
    What more can I stop now?

[13:39] Kanoko
    No way.
[13:40] Kanoko
    Why does this Blume election even exist?
[13:43] Kanoko
    There's no need to change anything.
[13:45] Hime
    Yes! I'm voting for my onee-sama.
[13:49] Hime
    Everyone, please support her!
[13:51] Hime
    If you do, we can be Blume Schwestern!
[13:56] Mitsuki
    Oh? But that makes it sound as though
[13:58] Mitsuki
    you're only doing this because
    you want to become Blume Schwestern.
[14:02] Hime
    I want to achieve that with you!
[14:05] Hime
    Because I'm your little sister!
[14:07] Mitsuki
    Oh, Hime.

    We're on your side, Amamiya-san!
[14:22] Female Customer E
    Your words of support
    the other day were great!
[14:24] Female Customer E
    Your support of Tachibana-san was so sincere.
[14:27] Female Customer E
    Let's hope Tachibana-san becomes Blume!
[14:34] Sumika
    Please excuse her.
[14:37] Sumika
    She struggles to speak casually to visitors.
[14:41] Sumika
    I think she's also extra sensitive now,
    because of the Blume election.
[14:45] Sumika
    I don't think she'll open up
    to anyone other than us.
[14:50] Female Customer D
    We'll vote for Tachibana-san for sure!
[14:53] Female Customer E
    It's so wonderful how you two
    can communicate without words!
[14:54] Kanoko
    Hime-chan.
[14:55] Hime
    Hmm?
[14:56] Kanoko
    Is everything okay? Do you need help?
[14:59] Sumika
    Amamiya-san.
[15:01] Sumika
    I'm trying to live up to your expectations.
[15:04] Sumika
    The elections are almost over, so—
[15:13] Sumika
    You should try to relax a little.
    You did everything you could.
[15:25] Hime
    Seriously...
[15:26] Hime
    Kanoko, is something wrong?
[15:28] Kanoko
    Huh?
[15:29] Hime
    You've seemed gloomy since the other day.
[15:32] Hime
    And you suddenly can't
     talk to Tachibana-san again.
[15:35] Hime
    Did something happen with her?
[15:38] Kanoko
    No, it's nothing.
[15:41] Kanoko
    I never used to talk to her,
    and there's no need for me to, right?
[15:46] Hime
    That's not right, Kanoko.
    You supported her bid for Blume.
[15:50] Kanoko
    Enough with this Blume stuff.
    I don't support Tachibana-san, either.
[15:56] Kanoko
    I don't care anymore...
[15:59] Hime
    Kanoko!
[16:01] Hime
    You have to learn to talk
    to people other than me!
[16:06] Kanoko
    That's not it, Hime-chan.
[16:08] Kanoko
    Tachibana-san is trying to
    interfere with our relationship.
[16:12] Kanoko
    So there's no need to talk to her anymore.
[16:15] Kanoko
    She's also not "not as bad
    a person as we thought."
[16:18] Kanoko
    It was all a misunderstanding.
[16:21] Hime
    What happened with you and Tachibana-san?!
[16:23] Hime
    You have to tell me, otherwise I can't know!
[16:26] Kanoko
    Because she...
[16:29] Kanoko
    She tries to make me give up on Hime-chan.
[16:33] Kanoko
    I wasn't going to say anything to
    Hime-chan anyway, but still she...
[16:36] Kanoko
    I...
[16:38] Kanoko
    Hime-chan...
[16:41] Kanoko
    I can't even say this.
[16:44] Kanoko
    Hime-chan, you jerk.
[16:48] Kanoko
    No! No! Sorry, Hime-chan, sorry!
[16:51] Kanoko
    That's not it! You did nothing wrong!
[16:57] Kanoko
    That was a mistake...
[17:02] Hime
    Sorry I tried to force you.
[17:07] Kanoko
    No, I...
[17:31] Hime
    Kanoko, how about today?
[17:33] Kanoko
    I'll go home.
[17:35] Hime
    Okay, I'll stay.
[17:38] Hime
    I'm sorry, Kanoko.
[17:51] Sumika
    Kanoko-chan?
[17:52] Sumika
    Kano...
[17:55] Kanoko
    Please leave me alone.

    What's that look on your face?

    Huh? You're here to
    cheer me up, Nene-san?
[18:46] Nene
    No way.
[18:48] Nene
    You take care of the trouble
    that happens in the salon.
[18:52] Sumika
    So you think it's trouble, Nene-san?
[18:55] Nene
    Hmm? I thought there was something bad
    going on with you and Amamiya-san.
[18:59] Sumika
    I see, so that's how it comes off.
[19:02] Nene
    I just hear stuff when I'm in the kitchen.
[19:05] Sumika
    Is it even a "bad thing"?
[19:10] Sumika
    I just want to stop her.
[19:14] Sumika
    Stop Kanoko-chan from
    bringing romance into the salon.
[19:19] Sumika
    This time, I won't fail and
    let the salon get destroyed.
[19:25] Nene
    Romance, huh?
[19:27] Sumika
    Yeah.
[19:29] Sumika
    I want Kanoko-chan to give up
    on her love, but she just won't.
[19:34] Sumika
    She says there's nothing to stop,
    she's not going to confess or anything,
[19:38] Sumika
    and she just wants things to stay the same.
[19:41] Sumika
    When she said that,
    I just didn't get it anymore.
[19:45] Sumika
    What did I even want to stop?
[19:48] Sumika
    Kanoko-chan isn't trying to
    break anything anymore.
[19:52] Sumika
    But still,
[19:55] Sumika
    I want to stop her.
[20:00] Nene
    No wonder things look bad.
[20:01] Sumika
    I wish they didn't.
[20:04] Nene
    Dream on.
[20:04] Sumika
    I don't know what to do.
[20:06] Nene
    I don't either.
[20:10] Sumika
    Nene-san! I still don't
    understand, even now.
[20:13] Sumika
    Why did you go for Goeido
    back then, despite my advice?
[20:17] Sumika
    Why did you sacrifice
    our sisterhood for romance?
[20:22] Sumika
    It ended up making you cry,
    it made you quit being "Saionji"...
[20:28] Sumika
    If I had stopped you properly...
[20:31] Nene
    Don't underestimate me.
[20:32] Nene
    Sumika, I know you're coming
    from a place of compassion.
[20:35] Nene
    But it's unwelcome.
[20:37] Nene
    At least for me,
[20:39] Nene
    when I fall in love, it's my choice.
[20:42] Nene
    I don't want people telling me what to do.
[20:44] Nene
    Getting dumped and crying is
    all part of romance.
[20:49] Nene
    Same with Amamiya-san, right?
[20:51] Nene
    If she knows what she's getting into,
    nobody has a right to stop her.
[20:57] Sumika
    Even if someone's gonna cry,
    there's nothing I can do?
[21:03] Nene
    Maybe you can channel that
    unwelcome compassion
[21:06] Nene
    into something other
     than trying to stop her.
[21:10] Nene
    Amamiya-san's no longer
    "someone trying to break things."
[21:13] Nene
    She's now "someone who's
     going to cry," isn't she?
[21:19] Sumika
    You're right.
