No one wants to get hurt.
Dad
We don't want to get hurt.
We want to laugh as much as possible.
We make our choices for that...
or try to.
I wish there was a way to make everyone happy.
Ah, pound cake?
Is that... for me?
Yeah, you told me you like it, Sacchan.
Thanks!
I'll eat it with care!
Come on, Yuna-chan!
Come on, let's watch a movie next time!
But, we can't meet like this anymore...
Be always on LINE!
You too, Sacchan!
Let me know when you get a boyfriend in high school!
Boyfriend?
I've never really talked to boys besides Kazu-kun.
Because you haven't had that love at first sight by fate yet, right?
There should be a nice guy for your first love!
Sacchan!
Hurry up, hurry up!
Maybe I'll never have a friend like Sacchan ever again.
Poo.
Hm? Huh!
If you walk forward, you'll step in poo.
Hm? Huh!
T... thank you!
Huh?
He's the Prince, and yet... he said poo.
It's warm!
Mama, pick me up!
Okay, okay!
It's not here, huh...
Ah!
Eh...
Huh... what?
I'm scared!
Uh... sor-
Huh?
Close
U... uhm!
Y... yes?
Can I ask you a little favor?
Huh?
Welcome home!
Huh? Your friend?
Ah, well...
I moved to Apartment today, my name is Yamamoto Akari.
Ah, greetings!
I forgot my keys, but Yuna-san helped me out.
I'm sorry to disturb you in your house so suddenly.
You seem really mature! How old are you?
I'll be this year.
Same as Yuna? You look like an adult!
Right, Papa?
Make yourself at home!
Thank you very much!
You really saved me!
I couldn't get in touch with my family.
It's so delicious!
Eh, I'm glad.
Is she shy?
You have a cute room!
Is... is that so?
Yeah!
You like shoujo manga, right?
You like them too, Akari-chan?
Ah, I read sometimes when I have time.
I read even if I don't have time.
Like this, love at first sight by fate... I long for it so much so much!
Huuh?
Yuna, are you there?
Yees!
Here, you wanted to watch it.
Thank you!
Could you say bye bye to Sacchan?
Yeah!
Are you okay?
Yeah. She said hi to you too, Kazu-kun.
I see.
Ah, sorry, you have a friend over?
Hello!
Ah, hello!
She moved today. Yamamoto Akari-chan.
She's the same age.
I'm Inui.
Nice to meet you!
Which is your school, Yamamoto-san?
Aoto Gakuen.
Huh? Same as me!
Oh!
Well, it was nice meeting you!
Yuna, I'm glad that you could make a new friend.
Later!
Thank you for the DVD!
Uh, so...
Fr-
Would you...
my friend...
Huh, I thought we are already friends, no?
We already are!
The day my friend left, I was able to make a new one.
We are opposites in everything.
Yuna has lived in that same apartment ever since she was born.
As for Akari-chan, this is her th move.
She likes shoujo manga, and looking for love at first sight by fate, like in manga.
Love experience: zero.
Kazu-kun is not my boyfriend, he is my childhood friend.
Huh, I mean it's normal, but...
I'm waiting...
Hm?
For that boy, who will fall in love with me at first sight by fate.
Will you just wait?
Won't you do something for it?
Sorry, I'm going to have a morning meeting.
Take care!
Dad went ahead too.
Okay!
I first got a boyfriend in th grade, and I still kind of have a boyfriend...
but...
we are long-distance.
It may be difficult.
See, the train ticket is not free.
But I started working part-time.
I see.
Yuna, visit me at work!
There are many cool people there.
Here's a coupon! Come to see handsome guys.
You have a boyfriend, and still call other guys handsome...
She is different from me in many ways.
But somehow it's fun.
However...
Yuna!
Morning!
Morning!
But I still...
don't know what true love is.
Entrance ceremony
First-year class assignment
Ah, we are in Class .
Huh, really!
Yamamoto-san too, welcome!
Yeah!
Kazuomi!
Oh, then, later!
Yeah!
Which class?
Class .
Both of us, again?
I'm sorry!
Isn't it fate to be in the same class with your childhood friend?
Eh, no no!
What's with that cold smile?
There are only classes.
Being in the same class is not fate.
Then, what is fate for you?
Fate... it's more...
Amazing!
Hm?
The Prince I saw during spring break is here!
Prince?
Akari...
Hm?
You forgot your keys again.
Ah, thank you.
Yuna, he is my brother, Rio.
So she is Yuna.
Brother? Twins?
Huh, Yuna-chan...
From the poo-
Don't say more!
Congratulation! Aoto Gakuen High School Entrance Ceremony
Spring is the season of change.
In your new class, with your new friend, your school years-
So Rio looks like your first love, that Prince.
Don't make fun of me!
Hm?
That my first love is a prince from a picture book...
Why? That's all fine!
But that Prince, he is someone you like...
It's different! It doesn't mean I would like him...
Just they looked similar when I saw him...
Ah, sorry, he's your brother, Akari-chan...
Ah, don't worry, it's all good.
Yeah, talk about something else...
What should we talk about...
Hmm, I wonder...
Ah, I broke up with my boyfriend.
Huuh...
Huh, when?
Now!
Huuh!
It really is fine.
Akari-chan, are you okay?
Yup.
Isn't it hard? It has to be... Must be tough, if you want to...
Funny! Why would you cry about it, Yuna?
Well, it can't be helped anymore.
Hm? It's tasty!
Akari-chan, did you really like him?
Hm?
Ah!
Maybe, did you put this in my shoe box?
Huh?
During lunch break, please come to the emergency exit at the school building.
Kusuhara
I see. Then, I'm glad.
I was about to reject.
Sorry!
I was mean just now.
No, don't worry about it!
Besides, it would cause trouble if you liked me, Yamamoto-kun.
First, drop the formal language.
And then...
Don't look down!
I'm here.
That's all.
Call me just Rio.
So...
Hm?
The one who wrote this letter may be here soon.
Ah s- sorry!
Ah, there you are! I was looking for you!
I'm feeling sleepy, so I'll rest a bit in the infirmary.
Uhm.
I asked the others to have lunch with you. Sorry.
Later!
Been thinking about it, Ichihara-san and Yamamoto-san, you make a surprising pair!
Did you two go to the same middle school?
Akari-chan moved to the same building as me, that's why.
Huuh, I get nervous when I talk to Yamamoto-san.
Nervous?
She's cute and thin and unrivaled.
Unrivaled?
Yeah, but I heard something scary!
Yamamoto-san has her eyes on Okazaki-san's boyfriend from Class .
Really?
Really, really!
She is working at the same place as Okazaki-san's boyfriend.
Now their relationship is in a crisis.
No good!
No good indeed, she knew about Okazaki-san, and yet she made a pass at him.
That's why she was cool about it.
Even before breaking up, she had feelings for the next person.
Yamamoto-san, we need to talk!
Come for a moment.
Yuna! I have work today, but before that, do you want to stop by somewhere?
S- sorry. I have plans for today.
I see.
Then, see you tomorrow!
I couldn't return her "See you".
I'm angry at Akari-chan.
I'm frustrated.
It's not something she should take lightly.
STOP
It's something she should take good care of.
I don't want someone who falls in love like that to know how I feel now.
So, I just don't think, that if you broke up with your boyfriend yesterday...
you should act as cool as Akari-chan did.
Did Yamamoto-san say she was cool with it?
No, but...
Yamamoto-san was crying in the infirmary today.
Hmm?
You are angry at Yamamoto-san without even asking her first?
It's weird.
Since Akari-chan is unrivaled
and she's cool with everything
I got angry at her.
I was jealous, mad, dismissive.
That's how I've been protecting myself, lacking from confidence.
Sorry I dragged you along.
It's okay!
I told you leave me alone!
You have a girlfriend, and you ask me out?
Didn't I reject you clearly enough?
You really make me mad!
Aha, I just-
What are you laughing at?
Come on, Akari-chan...
Don't touch me!
Kazu-kun?
Don't get worked up!
She doesn't like it.
What that guy's doing here?
Let go of me!
Akari-chan!
Enough.
I'll quit this job.
Huh?
Why would you quit, when you haven't done anything wrong?
Hm?
I'm sorry for believing in those rumors.
It's fine.
In fact, it's true, I fall in love easier than the people around me.
And every time, I just transfer schools again before being able to solve it.
So you don't have to force it, Yuna.
Hm?
You don't have to force being my friend.
I'll stop by the store before home.
Even after telling you, that my first love was a prince from a picture book...
you didn't make fun of me.
And I didn't believe, even in a friend like that.
Dad, morning!
M- morning!
What is Yuna doing so early?
She would lose determination if she didn't focus.
I'm off!
Take care!
Morning!
M- morning! Yuna?
Went ahead because she had something to do.
I see.
Yuna has a big heart.
Hm?
If you open up to her, Yamamoto-san.
You really are a nice person, Kazuomi-kun.
You should go out with Yuna!
What, so suddenly?
You two would make an amazing couple.
You should like her!
Only if... but you can't just like someone like that.
No, surprisingly, you can turn it on like a switch...
Then...
could you fall in love with me?
Huh?
See? You can't fall in love just by telling that.
Huh? Ah, right!
I'm- I'm shocked!
What are you doing there?
Ah, morning!
Huh? Did I make him mad?
He's always like that in the morning.
Rio!
Morning!
Morning!
Hey, do you know that girl?
She's been there for a long time.
Why? Is she fine?
Hey...
Hm?
About Akari-chan...
What?
Your boyfriend...
And what?
It's...
Akari-chan... didn't do anything.
Huh? Are you calling my boyfriend a liar?
Don't butt in what you have nothing to do with.
Annoying!
Yuna?
Enough already...
I'm scared...
But!
Wait, Okazaki-san! Apologize!
You are blaming Akari-chan for something that is not even true!
It's not the time for me to look down!
I... I will ask Akari-chan again to forgive me for believing in gossips!
Please, apologize to Akari-chan!
I told you yesterday, I have nothing to do with your boyfriend.
But sorry if I made you feel bad.
W... why did you apologize to her, Akari-chan?
Think about that girl who we left in the classroom, it was enough.
What did you think...
Sorry...
But I would have hated myself if I didn't do anything.
But, Akari-chan...
I want to be your friend, Akari-chan!
So please tell me if something happens!
I want a friend who we can share with, when we have a hard time or when we are sad!
I don't know if I can do it right away...
but...
I want to do it!
I'll do my best to do it!
So... I'll share them with you too, Yuna!
Uhm!
Our values may be completely different...
but still...
Let's keep being friends!
Hey, Yuna!
Hm?
Makeover?
No! I overslept...
What extreme pose you sleep in, Yuna?
Hey, stop looking at it!
Okay, going home!
No, no! We are late!
It's okay, it's okay!
Wait!
Faster!
Oh! Shopping?
Yeah.
Hm?
Ah, Yuna-chan, who helped Akari, I just remembered it again.
Th... that again?
You were really cool.
But you say it while laughing...
Sorry, sorry!
Ah, also, that manga you lent me last time was fun!
Really? Next time, I'll bring the following!
Okay, thank you!
Later!
I like Rio-kun.
If I were to admit it, I would like him more and more.
I already knew you like him, but Yuna, you don't act at all!
Act?
Right, like a confession.
No way, no way! Not yet!
Why? Then, when?
That's...
When time comes for it...
Huh?
Now, just meeting and talking with Rio-kun is enough for me.
You can't be helped...
Hm?
Welcome!
Thank you!
Hey!
This is my first time studying together.
Same for me.
We were waiting!
Akari-chan!
Should I lock?
Ah, yes, close it.
Hey, Yuna...
Why did you invite Kazuomi-kun too?
Eh, well, Kazu-kun isn't good in Math either...
And it's better to study together...
And because I'm a little nervous...
Kazuomi-kun, can you help me pick up some things from the store?
Okay!
Enjoy the nervousness!
Ah, cold!
Sorry that you just came to study and I suddenly took you shopping.
Ah, I have my parents home, so I was planning going out anyways.
It was just good timing.
Huh?
It will eventually begin when you spend a lot of time together.
"Why are you lazing around?" "Stop watching movies, and study instead!"
But it's not like they couldn't get along.
I kind of understand that feeling.
Choose one sweet from each!
Okay!
Nice to know such a nice person.
Hm?
Your brother, doing these for Yuna.
Ah...
The guy Yuna likes, after all it's your brother.
Yeah, how did you know?
Been watching them for a while.
I see...
Should we start?
Y- yes!
This is the first time... I'm in a guy's room.
Was it Math ?
Dear Yamamoto Rio
Ah...
I got it on the train. I rejected her, but I forgot to return it.
So you rejected her?
Yeah.
She may be nice if you talked to her.
Hm?
She had the courage to confess, don't hurt her in a hurry...
So it would have been better if I didn't give a proper answer?
I think that would hurt the other person even more.
Is that so...
I would absolutely hate that.
If it won't work, don't make them wonder, just turn down properly.
Otherwise, you would keep thinking about what you should do.
I see.
Hmm...
Talking from experience.
Hm?
Well, I couldn't confess either.
But now I'm glad I couldn't do it back then.
I understand that feeling, when you can't confess.
You like someone, Yuna-chan?
Ah... uhm...
Well...
Why don't you confess?
I know I would be turned down.
It would be pointless.
It's not that you can't confess.
It's not like me.
H- how different?
It would... break the rules...
Ah... sorry.
Akari isn't here.
Huh?
She's Yuna-chan, Akari's friend from the time she forgot her keys.
Sorry for bothering you!
Nice to meet you! I'm Akari's... Akari and Rio-kun's mom!
Ah, sorry, I just thought Rio-kun and Akari would be here.
What are you doing?
Akari?
Do you even know how rude you are both to me and Rio?
Rio would never do what you think of!
You shouldn't have married again to Rio's father if you are so worried!
Does that mean...
They aren't blood-related.
Akari...
You should be angry too!
We are siblings after all!
Calm down.
I really can't believe it!
Worry about yourself!
Akari...
The girl Rio-kun likes is...
Sorry you had to see it.
It's okay.
Sorry I didn't talk about my family.
Don't apologize!
Uhm...
See you tomorrow!
Thank you for having us!
T- thank you for having us!
Why are you crying, Yuna?
I'm not crying.
Every time, why...
I'm really sorry about yesterday.
You don't have to apologize!
I have work today, but I asked Rio to continue studying together.
Huh?
It's not my apology, but...
Ah maybe it's inconvenient?
No, but more importantly...
Ahh...
My mom has been like that for a long time... but I got used to it!
I see...
Tell me if anything happens!
Yeah!
Did you do the Biology homework?
I don't understand it!
Don't overdo it.
Hm?
Akari can be pushy.
If you don't want to study-
It's not like that!
Ah, I see.
Ah!
No good!
Looks like it will rain.
Yeah...
Let's go!
Huh!
Huh?
Don't you have work?
Huh?
Ah, sorry! I heard when you were talking with Yuna.
Ah, uhm... the work was a lie.
It would be hard to go home... or rather... I don't want to.
Thought I would go to some unknown place, but...
But like this, I can't...
An unknown place?
Yeah, somewhere not here...
Ah, sorry, forget it! I was saying weird things!
Do you have a little time for me?
Hm?
I hate rain so much.
It was raining on the day, when I found out my dad marries Akari's mom.
She transferred school when we were in second grade, it was love at first sight.
I started liking her more and more.
I decided to confess.
But then...
Rio messaged me on LINE and wanted to talk.
If you read a message already, you have to reply.
I was lost...
Or no... in my heart I already knew what to answer.
Sounded important.
Rio-kun
We need to talk. Waiting in the park.
I was going to the meeting place.
I met with my mom on the way.
And I found out, her partner was Rio's father.
Then, my father called me.
But somehow Akari was on the phone.
Then the four of us went to eat...
and my father told me he will get married again.
I asked her if she saw what I sent on LINE, but she didn't.
I lied that I dropped my phone in a puddle and that it broke.
I pretended it never happened...
because it was necessary so we can become a family.
In the end, I missed the timing to confess to her and it passed.
Ah no, I'm not crying.
I'm sorry, I forced you to open your heart, Rio-kun.
No, I was the one who started talking.
Besides, now I feel better.
I'm glad you listened to me, Yuna-chan.
But... this is our secret.
Would you have said yes if nothing happened?
It's pointless thinking about that.
Soon after that, looks like Rio started dating another girl.
He didn't really have strong feelings towards me.
Every time I move, I think it's like moving to a new world.
My mom has divorced twice.
With each moving, I also changed my family name.
Always swayed.
But she said she would properly build a family this time.
Like a normal family.
Normal?
A warm family, like Yuna's family.
Always being around loved ones.
Yamamoto-san, we are here!
Rainy days are most beautiful from here.
I came here a lot in th grade.
Hm?
You can see all the different buildings from here.
I was excited to see what kind of world will be in front of my eyes.
You really went here? How was it?
It's the same!
Familiar houses, street lights, stores...
It was the same reality.
Well, that's right, some things can't be solved, so we have to accept them.
Eh, it sounded pretty cold.
Nope, it's feels a lot more honest, rather than just half-hearted words.
Even if I can't take you everywhere here, at least I wanted to come here with you.
Here?
Yup, my favorite place!
It's the first time I bring someone with me.
The rain is not stopping.
Yeah...
Yuna-chan, you should confess to the person you like, so you won't have regrets.
Hm?
And if you get rejected, I'll do my best to comfort you!
I have a reason now to confess.
Yuna-chan?
Sorry, I was too insensitive...
I...
like you, Rio-kun!
So... reject me!
So I won't have to wonder.
And then, I want to be your friend, Rio-kun...
who you can talk to when there is no one else!
Thank you for your confession.
But...
sorry...
No, thank you for rejecting me properly.
Then, I'll go.
Next time we meet, let's go back as before.
Hm?
Ah, no...
Huh! There's our school!
Waa!
Uh-oh!
Safe!
Are you okay?
Sorry...
Are these the sign of something?
I'm going to get the wrong idea...
But it will be different.
I'll rent a DVD before going home.
Ah, later!
I feel strange...
Hee, it suits well!
No, I'm not talking about this panel.
I feel strange that we are in school during summer holiday.
Ah, right.
If I didn't have club activities, I would just keep working non-stop.
Ah, I also have that feeling.
Kazu-kun, good luck with your work!
Are you saving up for something?
Ah, uhm...
A camera.
A camera?
You like taking photos?
Ah, it's not like that.
Ah, perhaps you want to record a movie?
Movie?
Your dream was to be a movie director ever since elementary school.
Don't talk about it, it's embarrassing.
Huh, why? It's cool, right?
Yeah! It's admirable you have a dream!
Hey, don't make fun of me!
I'm not! It's cool!
Ah, excuse me!
You came to school too, Rio-kun.
I'm here to prepare for the school festival.
Hey, Kazu!
Oi!
Ah, the manga you gave me the other day...
I was shocked at the last part!
I cried a bit.
Yuna is amazing.
Yuna-chan, did you cry too?
In fact, yes.
Yes, she is amazing.
Can I do my best, just like Yuna?
There's just something in the same author's manga-
Ichihara-san!
What's up?
Ah, I would need Ichihara-san for something.
Huh? Agatsuma-kun? Me?
Nothing suspicious.
But I'm happy you remembered my name.
So, we were just talking about going to the festival together with everyone.
Would you want to join us, Ichihara-san and Yamamoto-san?
Is it okay?
Or course!
Akari-chan! Let's go to the festival with everyone!
Let's go!
Then, it's decided!
B- but...
Can we invite Kazuomi-kun too?
Huh?
Of course! The more of us go, the more fun it is!
Ah, sorry, I went ahead!
No, I'm glad!
Yay!
Huh... Akari-chan?
Kazu-kun? Since when, since when?
You are too loud!
Ah, s- sorry.
For how long do you like him?
Well, if you noticed...
Yeah, yeah!
When I was together with him, and I didn't know what to say...
Yeah, yeah?
Yuna... please stop that.
Ask anything and I'll help!
Okay, thank you!
What about you, Yuna?
Uh, so...
Actually, I want to ask something from you, Akari-chan.
Hm?
Can you teach me how to use makeup and such to look cute?
I know I have to give up on him.
But I still like Rio-kun.
So even if just a little, but I want to be cuter.
I want to stop thinking about him.
You're nice, Yuna.
Hm? What?
Alright, let's both become cute!
Yeah!
Ichihara-san is really nice.
Hm, do you like Yuna-chan or something?
Oh, did you find out?
It's okay if I like Ichihara-san, right?
Why are you asking me?
Haha, you're right!
I'm home.
Huh, cute makeup.
I wonder what's his type...
I'll ask it from Kazu-kun next time.
Stop, absolutely don't do it!
Ehhh...
Really, don't worry about that!
Thank you for your work!
Huh...
Huh, you brought it for me?
Your mom said you went out without an umbrella.
Mom did?
Thank you for bringing it.
Will tomorrow's summer festival be canceled?
In that case, should we instead hang out somewhere with everyone?
Hey, you!
Can't hear from the rain.
Ah, I see.
Movie, bowling, karaoke...
Or should we just go shopping with everyone?
So?
Mhm.
But I hope for sunshine...
I prepared my yukata too...
Hey, do you like Kazu?
Huh, what's that so suddenly?
Do you?
Stop, why would I talk about love with my brother?
I never wanted to be your brother, stupid.
Why are you so rude now?
That's why I hate rainy days.
Hm, what?
Enough.
Say something!
No matter what!
Are you mad?
If I made you angry, sorry.
I'm not mad...
Don't do that out of nowhere!
I'm off.
I'll pretend this one didn't happen either.
Don't ruin what we've been able to build so far.
Ah, Rio-kun!
I'm glad there is sunshine!
Right.
I can't relax now until the festival!
I was just walking in the house and my mom asked me to go shopping.
Ah, sorry, I talk too-
Sorry.
I can't go today.
Huh, why?
Because if I go, she can't enjoy it...
I... kissed Akari yesterday.
I'm the worst, huh.
She desperately wanted us to be siblings, but I messed up everything.
It's corny.
I know it was corny.
But it's ridiculous.
Why only I have to put up with it?
It's-
Do you think only you're suffering, Rio-kun?
What about Akari-chan's feelings?
I just had to-
No good!
Forgetting what happened...
Don't just forget all the cherished feelings.
Sorry... I was arrogant.
No, it's just as you said, Yuna-chan.
Sorry you had to hear these.
Promise me!
You will properly face Akari-chan...
and you make peace with her.
Yeah.
I'll do it.
I'll give a proper answer.
I'm home!
Finally you are home!
Do you have a moment?
I heard you are going to the festival.
Did you change your mind?
Ah, no, that...
Hmm, wait a second.
Sorry, it's too short.
Huh?
Never mind.
Is that so?
It's no good. I always mess up when it matters.
Especially the time when I met you, Rio-kun.
Huh?
We have children at around the same age, so we should arrange a lunch meeting.
I told that to your father.
But somehow suddenly we ran into Akari.
When was that?
When... The first day we met.
It seemed like Akari was going somewhere.
She threw a tantrum after talking with your father.
Dad
And then she called you.
She did it...
to not make things awkward for me...
I see.
For me...
I shouldn't bring it up.
After all, that would just worsen the atmosphere.
I'm sorry for yesterday.
I'm your brother...
I shouldn't have done it without thinking.
I'm really sorry.
Also... thank you.
Huh?
I'm glad to be a part of your family, Akari.
When I said I never wanted to be your brother... that was a lie.
I'm sorry I talked like a child.
I didn't know anything...
Sorry for being a selfish brother.
I'll forgive just once.
I have to go to the summer festival now.
Never do it again!
Then, later!
Rio, I'm sorry I wanted to pretend your feelings never existed.
Akari, I'm sorry you had to do everything alone until now.
Therefore...
thank you for your white lie.
Yuna-chan, thank you very much.
Huh?
That I realized my feelings before turning into obsession.
I feel like I was able to let go of it.
So don't worry about it anymore.
Don't force yourself.
Mhm.
Thank you for scolding me.
Is that so?
I'm glad it's easier now for you, Rio-kun.
Let's go soon.
Agatsuma and the others are waiting.
Eh? Stamp rally?
Right, since our class will wander in the school, in various costumes
people who find us could get stamps.
Huh!
And you get a gift if you get all!
Oh, sounds fun!
Will Rio-kun cosplay too?
He will!
Huh, what?
You have to ask him for yourself...
He doesn't show it to anyone.
I see...
Ah, I hope you will find me!
Yeah, I will! Good luck!
Hey, Hashimoto and Yumiko from Class are dating!
Really?
It's confession boom around the school festival!
I wonder if I would confess too.
Akari-chan, a little higher!
Up?
Yeah!
Here!
All right!
Hey...
What?
No, you first.
On the school festival's day, since I can't do it alone, could you curl my hair again?
Of course I can.
T... then one more thing...
Hm?
I think I will confess to Rio-kun.
It's because of Rio-kun, that I no longer feel the way I used to.
So, me right now... me, who can face forward...
I want to confess once more!
Maybe I should calm down, I'm being selfish-
You are not selfish at all!
Thank you.
What did you want to ask, Akari-chan?
Ah, so...
I have to go to the toilet!
I wonder what she has to go through...
I won't tell it to Agatsuma-kun.
Why is that... when I see Yuna...
why my chest tightens?
Kazuomi-kun?
Hey!
What may be on your mind?
Hah, what's with that language?
It's rare to see that face on you, Kazuomi-kun.
This.
Hm?

Honorable mentions
Woah, amazing! Congratulations!
Hmm, right...
I should be happy...
Hm?
I bought a camera and an editing software from the work money.
I was going to go in with % of me.
Kazuomi-kun?
My family... you should go to college, get a job, and you will be happy, they say.
Aiming to be a movie director is out of question.
But, if I show my skills here, can I go to a film school, I was wondering.
But only a mention...
The fact, that I aimed even higher, and believed in that is embarrassing.
Sorry... for the congratulation...
Ah, no, I'm sorry for my blah-blah.
Eh, what happened now is secret to everyone, even Yuna...
Ah, okay.
I'm a disgusting woman.
Even though Kazuomi-kun is depressed, I'm carried away by our own secret.
Are you okay?
Yeah, just got something in my eye.
I have a mirror!
Ah, it's fi-
Eh? His eyes...
Are these... the sign of something?
Ah, sorry...
Kazuomi-kun... would you like to go out with me?
After all, you... like me.
I'm sorry Yamamoto-san, but...
I don't like you.
Ah, I see! Eh!
Oh no, I got it all wrong, I'm embarrassed.
You made me happy, but... sorry.
It's okay, I was way too fast!
Please don't tell anyone what happened just now!
Okay, I won't tell.
Thank you! You saved me!
I haven't even thought about being rejected, even for a second.
I'm embarrassed... I got excited on my own...
I'm an idiot.
I won't like Yamamoto-san...
I settled on that...
I won't fall in love with the girl who likes Rio.
That's right, I settled on that.
I'm sorry.
I promised you I will tell everything.
But sorry... now I can't.
I'm home!
That's enough!
So are you saying I should just put up with it?
Put up with what? In work, in the house, everything is how you want-
Enough! No need to talk more!
No need, no need!
What's wrong?
Akari-chan, welcome home! It's nothing...
What do you mean nothing?
Eh...
Come on, get along you two...
Eh, sorry, sorry.
Dad is being too harsh!
Ah, okay, okay.
Talk it over together!
Come on...

Where are you, Rio-kun?
Before the curl in my hair, that Akari-chan made, is gone...
Before my face gets too shiny...
I want Rio-kun to see me!
I don't want anyone to see me.
They can see my head, so I didn't break the stamp rally's rule that you can't hide.
Hm? Ah, she has a card.
I want to give her a stamp, but...
Rio-kun doesn't want to be seen, maybe he's somewhere without many people.
If I meet Rio-kun, I'll ask casually if he has some time before the night festival.
Ah, I'm nervous even before I would confess.
It's dangerous to walk without looking ahead.
Huh, Rio-kun...
Rio-kun, you are-
Don't say anything!
Why? You look so cool!
Haha...
Absolute lie.
Ahh, I can't, it's too bothersome!
These tight leggings...
But it looks good on you!
You don't have to comfort me.
I'm serious! Like the prince from my picture book.
Picture book?
There is a picture book I love ever since I was small.
And the prince in that was my first love.
Your first love?
Sorry, if it makes you sad.
No, it doesn't.
If you say so, Yuna-chan, I guess this look is not too bad.
Also, this is not a good time to talk, but...
your hair looks cute today.
Thank you! I'm glad!
Hey-
Oh no!
What are you doing?
Ah, it's beautiful!
Somehow, it looks like magic!
Huh... am I?
Am I...
For Yuna-chan...
Eh, well, before the night festival-
Sorry, can we talk later?
Hmm?
I have something urgent.
I couldn't ask him...
Youth
Photo Contest
The face cutout panels have brought more people than I thought.
You can smile again.
Kazuomi-kun has been treating me normally ever since that.
Also, there will be a movie during the night festival.
I know, that's my favorite movie.
Eh, really?
Yeah, it's from my favorite director. Even though the movie is years old...
The way they use the lights-
Huh, after all, I really like him.
His face...
I want to watch it.
Watch?
Huh, watch! Movies like that! Want to watch it together?
Hm?
Hey, Kazuomi-kun, you know much about movies! You could give me a commentary!
Do I bother you?
You don't!
Let's watch it!
Is it okay?
Why are you surprised... we are just watching a movie...
That's right.
The movie is at :, so we should arrive at the screen minutes before that.
Yeah, I will!
Kazuomi-kun is so kind. So kind, yet he doesn't like me.
Can't wait for the movie.
Yeah.
I'm happy, but also sad...
Here!
I have four!
Thank you very much!
Bye!
Agatsuma!
Rio?
What's wrong? You should be in the garden now, Rio!
During the stamp rally, if you are not-
I... like Yuna-chan!
Sorry... but I felt like it's not fair if I won't tell you, Agatsuma!
Haha, you finally told me!
I noticed! You were always watching Ichihara-san, Rio.
I'll go now. I will go around the school festival with Ichihara-san.
Then, I'll tell her how I feel.
I'm also serious about Ichihara-san.
Took a sneaky photo?
It looks amazing!
Hehe, it was a limited sale!
Hee?
Oh, what's the time?
A little past pm...
Sorry, I have to go.
Is that... confession time?
No, no, not that! I'll meet with Agatsuma-kun.
Hm? Agatsuma-kun?
I couldn't talk to Rio-kun yet...
You and Kazu-kun?
Huh, eh, well...
I'm glad! See you later!
Yeah...
So it really is here... the confession boom.
Well, I'm one of them too.
Sorry, did you wait?
No, I just arrived.
You didn't have to run like that.
Didn't want you to wait.
I'm sorry too, for selfishly asking you to come.
It's okay! I'm sure you want to talk with someone while you stamp.
Agatsuma was very straight forward about Yuna-chan.
He's kind. They make a good pair.
If Yuna-chan chooses him...
I hate it...
I'm selfish, but...
I want Yuna-chan's smile more than anything else.
Please take one!
Thanks!
Kazu!
Oh, what?
Did you see Yuna-chan?
I saw her walking with Agatsuma-kun just now, but why don't you call her-
I left my phone where I changed clothes, but how were they?
Huh?
Were they like serious, or having fun?
Rio...
Never mind, I'm going!
Rio, you...
Huh?
The girl you like... is not Yamamoto-san?
Heh?
Then, when you and Yamamoto-san...
W- wait, Kazu!
Look, I don't know what you've seen, and I won't say more on that...
The girl I like is not Akari.
Huh?
It's a long story and even I don't know why I did some things...
Let's try not to have regrets!
Bye!
H- hey!
Don't have regrets?
It's too late...
But, can I tell her that?
After watching the movie together...
I will tell Yamamoto-san... my feelings.
No, I'll do it right now!
Inui-kun!
Oh?
Do you have a moment?
Teacher...
Uhm...
There you go!
Thank you!
Where next?
It's been a while.
Eh, sorry.
Huh?
I wanted to invite you so much, Ichihara-san.
Every time I see you, Ichihara-san, my heart feels warmer and warmer.
It's a gentle feeling.
So... do you want to spend the night festival with me?
It just started raining.
But the sky is clear-
Rain?
Thank you.
It was the first time someone has confessed to me.
It made me happy.
But...
There is someone else in Ichihara-san's heart.
I'm sorry.
Ah, no...
It's weird for me to say, but...
good luck, Ichihara-san!
Thank you for the support!
I..
I...
won't run away anymore...
from my feelings!
Yuna-chan...
Yuna-chan!
Rio-kun!
Yuna-chan!
I want to say it one more time now!
I just want you to know now!
It can't end, until I tell you how I feel.
Yuna-chan!
Rio-kun, there is something I want to tell you!
I... wanted to meet you Yuna-chan! I wanted to see your face!
Maybe I'm just a nuisance to you, Yuna-chan...
and maybe there is someone else in your heart.
But I...
I like you, Yuna-chan!
There's no one else there. I like you too, Rio-kun!
You are insistent!
But...
I like you so much, Rio-kun!
It's okay.
I think you are just as insistent, Yuna-chan.
I arrived a little too early.

Reception
Yamamoto-san, have you arrived yet?
I'm very sorry, but I can't go. Please watch the movie without me.
Yamamoto-san, have you arrived yet?
I'm very sorry, but I can't go. Please watch the movie without me.
Yamamoto-san, have you arrived yet?
I'm very sorry, but I can't go. Please watch the movie without me.
I want to tell you something after the movie.
I'm very sorry, but I can't go. Please watch the movie without me.
I want to tell you something after the movie.
Sorry for the wait!
It's fine.
No way, it's not responding at all.
Dialogue: ,::.,::.,Top,,,,,,The movie is starting right now!
My brother won't come home today again?
Right, he's running up and down every day with his best effort.
I'm proud of my husband.
What's dinner?
Saury. It was cheap.
Do you want to eat together today?
Can you help me?
Akari-chan, want to watch it together?
Ah, hey, did you see Inui-kun?
Inui-kun?
My phone broke.
That's so bad!
As for Inui-kun, I saw him going with the teacher.
Huh, where?
What do you think, Inui-kun?
Well, you don't have to answer right away, and you have to ask your family too.
You have to work hard!
I came from Kyoto to meet with you, Inui-kun.
Kyoto?
Right, first of all, you have to get good results in the next contest.
Kyoto.
Contest?
Sorry for being late Where are you?
Huh, Inui-kun?
Wait, Yamamoto-san!
I'm sorry for being late!
So...
So, I...
Nah, it's fine!
I mean, I made you feel uncomfortable, so sorry!
Asking you to watch a movie together must have sounded very suspicious.
Yamamoto-san...
Let's just forget about it.
I told you, I move on quickly. Haven't I told you, I've already moved on!
But Yamamoto-san, I...
I don't feel anything for you, Kazuomi-kun!
So that's why...
I see.
Never mind.
I'm sorry I broke our movie plan.

That's not what I said!
All you do is keep saying how bad I am in everything!
I get it, okay, okay.
Don't act so troubled! Just tell me properly if you want to tell something!
It's Eve, and you chose to be with me?
Because I'm meeting Rio-kun later.
And also, I wanted to give you this, Akari-chan.
But I haven't prepared anything!
Don't worry about that!
Thank you.
Akari-chan, what happened with Kazu-kun?
Huh?
Something did.
Nothing particular.
The four of us no longer meet.
Right...
I mean, Akari-chan, do you and Kazu-kun avoid each other?
Nothing like that!
But...
Don't worry about me!
What will you do with Rio on your Christmas date?
We will celebrate at home.
Celebrate? Christmas?
Well, it's a coincidence, but today is the th day anniversary of us dating, so...
It's not the time to walk home with me.
Huh?
I see. Will you be in your house?
Rio for sure will be cozy.
Akari-chan?
At least your parents are happy with each other.
Not at all. The are fighting a lot too.
Really?
Yes, but the next day after they fight, my dad makes us dinner.
That's their usual pattern for making peace.
Huuh?
My mom is simple, she can forgive him for most things, if she's full.
They sound happy.
Not really, it's normal.
It's not normal!
Akari-chan?
Ah, Yuna, I think you should be more proud that you have a nice dad and mom.
Thank you...
Well, I have work, so that's it for today!
Huh, work today?
You get paid more on Christmas.
I see. Then, later!

What present Yuna-chan would like?
You know more about Yuna than me, come on.
Huh?
Hey, don't avoid me!
I don't.
Then... Akari?
Just forget it.
Kazu?
Just pretend it never happened...
But, it was for the best.
Huh, what are you saying?
I was called in on the day of the school festival.
A professor of the Kyoto Art University has seen my work I made for the contest.
He will give me an endorsement if I have good results again.
If I miss this, my parents will never accept my dream.
Kazu...
That's my chance.
I get this is your chance, but what does it have to do with Akari?
How was it for the best?
I will get the results and go to Kyoto.
Huh?
Even if I were to try and still have feelings...
I wouldn't be able to stand next to Yamamoto-san.
It brings up sad memories.
Don't worry about that, Akari is strong!
I'm saying it for real!
Huh?
Yamamoto-san looks lonely all the time... especially recently...
Kazu, you are angry.
I am angry!
At myself...
I know Yamamoto-san is lonely, and I want to be by her side...
But I can't, as it is now.
Kazu...
So I want to have confidence...
Sorry, I'm venting...
Hey Kazu!
Yuna will be happy with anything!
As long as you choose it for her.
When was the last time we had a dinner as a family?
Mom and Dad... I wonder if they would change when they are full.
I'm not good at cooking.
My curry was praised by Mom some time ago.
Maybe I'm dreaming too much, but...
I want everyone to like this place.
Hm?
You have no idea how others feel! You just push whatever you want!
What do you mean? I have a life too! It can't be helped!
Can't be helped, can't be helped... You don't even try to have a talk!
What the hell would you want?
What's wrong with that attitude of yours?
I just wanted a family...
Yeah, sure.
Without the kids, I would have left a long time ago.
I see...
It's my fault.
No, I-
Sorry.
Akari, I didn't mean!
Come.
Stop!
Akari!
Akari-chan, wait!
Huh, work now?
Store.
What a terrible person I am...
Stay here, I'll look for her.
I'm home...
Did you meet Akari-chan?
Akari?
Huh?
And I didn't chase after her...
Yuna?
Sorry, wait!
I'll search Akari with my dad, so today-
No way!
Rio-kun, don't go, nor your dad!
Yuna-chan?
I'll go search for Akari-chan, Rio-kun...
Let me try to bring back Akari-chan!
Let's go, Rio!
Wait, Dad! Let's talk!
You too, Mom!
Yuna
It sucks!
Hey, what's wrong?
Nothing...
You face tells me something happened.
It didn't mean to tell that.
Your phone is ringing.
I mean, you didn't care how I am, so it's none of your business, Kazuomi-kun.
It's from Yuna.
Don't pick up!
None of my business, right?
Why now, when you've been avoiding me?
You distanced yourself from me first.
No, no, you rejected me.
You wanted to forget it.
Kazuomi-kun, you were so good at expressing yourself, so get to the point!
This is it, Yamamoto-san!
Selfishly, I accepted everything, and I didn't care about my feelings...
But what are your feelings, Kazuomi-kun? Get to the point!
Why are you silent?
Tell me.
I thought I have to leave you alone. I thought I would be rejected.
Even if I said it, you would think I'm a nuisance.
Tell me.
I... when I saw your painful face, that was about to cry-
Tell me already!
You wanted to disappear, you wanted to go to Kyoto!
Ugh... and I wanted to be alone? Back off!
We can talk later, now Akari-chan...
Dad, and Mom, you can't do it anymore.
Eh...
Do you want to part ways?
I know I have no rights to say that...
We've been ignoring it for a while.
Rio...
We are full of ourselves, turning a blind eye to the family.
We were spoiled.
We've been just hurting her precious family.
We are the only one who can cover the wounds we made.
If you two can't go on anymore, I don't have anything to say.
But if that isn't the case...
then face me, Akari, and each other!
Rio-kun...
Carrying our burden together...
isn't that what a family is about?
At least I want it to be.
No, it will be!
I was a bad friend.
I didn't realize Akari-chan was suffering.
I couldn't notice it...
I cared about myself so much, that I didn't notice.
I wouldn't have seen it...
even though I was always close to Akari-chan.
I'm sorry! I promised you...
a friend who you can share with when you have a hard time or when you are sad!
And yet, I...
I have completely different values from you, Akari-chan.
My world has broadened quickly.
I learned to love myself.
And yet...
So...
I don't want to only receive!
And I don't want to just wait!
This time, I want to show you, I want to tell you!
I want to be close to you, Akari-chan!
And I want to bring smile on your face more and more!
Let me be such a friend!
Yamamoto-san!
Huh?
Why...
That day... on the rooftop...
I wish I didn't lie!
I wish I was persistent and told you after the school festival!
Even if I lack confidence, I wish I stayed by your side, Yamamoto-san!
Yamamoto-san, even when you kept giving me signals...
I was weak.
Made up reasons to run away!
Kazuomi-kun...
But...
I'll stop making excuses.
I won't give up on you, because of my dreams.
And I won't give up on my dreams either.
When my dreams will come true, I still want to be...
by your side, Yamamoto-san.
I like you.
Always... always...
I've always liked you, Yamamoto-san!
So am I.
I don't want to get hurt.
Being considerate, act as an adult...
Run away and lie...
But after all, still get hurt...
But, I'll stop doing that.
I want to be who I am!
I want you to say beside me as I am!
I like you so much, Kazuomi-kun.
Achoo!
Ah, no way!
Haha!
Sorry...
Let's go home!
No answer
No answer

Akari-chan

Where are you?
Sorry for the worry. Wait in my room, I'll be home soon.
Ah, Yuna!
I'm sorry Akari-chan, I didn't realize how much pain you were in.
I only cared about myself.
Yuna, you gave me enough support.
That day, I'm glad I met you, Yuna.
I'm glad you became my friend!
I feel the same way too!
Look, I told you Yuna will be waiting outside.
Right.
Huh, wait, you two...
Uhm, well...
Huh, huh, huuh!
What happened?
Sorry, I'll tell you later but we have to go now.
Huuh, what?
Akari...
I'm sorry.
I ran away, not caring about anything.
But, even then, I want to be here....
with everyone.
I'm also sorry! I didn't care enough about you and made you have a hard time!
Let me properly apologize too.
I'm really sorry.
From now on, I want this place to feel like you can always come home to.
Let's eat together, dinner is ready soon.
Okay.
Can you set up the chopsticks?
Chopsticks?
Speaking of which, it's not really a Christmas meal.
Huh?
I have some shirataki left, want to exchange?
Haha!
What?
What a nice brother I have!
Huh, what do you mean?
So it really was curry
Yes!
Merry Christmas!
Rio-kun!
Your hand!
Hm?
Give me quickly!
Uhm.
Here!
Is this... for me?
Yeah.
This was your Christmas present.
This?
And this is for our anniversary.
Come on, say something, I was so embarrassed, and I felt like-
Y... Yuna-chan?
Suddenly... my heart almost skipped a beat!
Sorry!
Come on, don't laugh!
I can't!
You are too cute!
I'm so embarrassed!
So it really was curry
So it really was curry
So it really was curry
So it really was curry
Our days, our days, even our , I want to spend all the anniversaries with you!
Rio-kun
No one wants to get hurt.
We don't want to get hurt.
We want to laugh as much as possible.
We make our choices for that...
or try to.
Maybe, there is no way to make everyone happy.
However...
Love me, love me not...
After the love and rejection...
Maybe we got a little closer to that.

ima ichiban tsutaetai omoi ga mune no naka koe wo ageru The feeling I want to tell you the most, is raising it's voice in my heart

itsu no hi ka docchi ka ga tooku ni ittari shite One day, one of us, will go far away

Dad
We don't want to get hurt.
We want to laugh as much as possible.
We make our choices for that...
or try to.
I wish there was a way to make everyone happy.
Ah, pound cake?
Is that... for me?
Yeah, you told me you like it, Sacchan.
Thanks!
I'll eat it with care!
Come on, Yuna-chan!
Come on, let's watch a movie next time!
But, we can't meet like this anymore...
Be always on LINE!
You too, Sacchan!
Let me know when you get a boyfriend in high school!
Boyfriend?
I've never really talked to boys besides Kazu-kun.
Because you haven't had that love at first sight by fate yet, right?
There should be a nice guy for your first love!
Sacchan!
Hurry up, hurry up!
Maybe I'll never have a friend like Sacchan ever again.
Poo.
Hm? Huh!
If you walk forward, you'll step in poo.
Hm? Huh!
T... thank you!
Huh?
He's the Prince, and yet... he said poo.
It's warm!
Mama, pick me up!
Okay, okay!
It's not here, huh...
Ah!
Eh...
Huh... what?
I'm scared!
Uh... sor-
Huh?
Close
U... uhm!
Y... yes?
Can I ask you a little favor?
Huh?
Welcome home!
Huh? Your friend?
Ah, well...
I moved to Apartment today, my name is Yamamoto Akari.
Ah, greetings!
I forgot my keys, but Yuna-san helped me out.
I'm sorry to disturb you in your house so suddenly.
You seem really mature! How old are you?
I'll be this year.
Same as Yuna? You look like an adult!
Right, Papa?
Make yourself at home!
Thank you very much!
You really saved me!
I couldn't get in touch with my family.
It's so delicious!
Eh, I'm glad.
Is she shy?
You have a cute room!
Is... is that so?
Yeah!
You like shoujo manga, right?
You like them too, Akari-chan?
Ah, I read sometimes when I have time.
I read even if I don't have time.
Like this, love at first sight by fate... I long for it so much so much!
Huuh?
Yuna, are you there?
Yees!
Here, you wanted to watch it.
Thank you!
Could you say bye bye to Sacchan?
Yeah!
Are you okay?
Yeah. She said hi to you too, Kazu-kun.
I see.
Ah, sorry, you have a friend over?
Hello!
Ah, hello!
She moved today. Yamamoto Akari-chan.
She's the same age.
I'm Inui.
Nice to meet you!
Which is your school, Yamamoto-san?
Aoto Gakuen.
Huh? Same as me!
Oh!
Well, it was nice meeting you!
Yuna, I'm glad that you could make a new friend.
Later!
Thank you for the DVD!
Uh, so...
Fr-
Would you...
my friend...
Huh, I thought we are already friends, no?
We already are!
The day my friend left, I was able to make a new one.
We are opposites in everything.
Yuna has lived in that same apartment ever since she was born.
As for Akari-chan, this is her th move.
She likes shoujo manga, and looking for love at first sight by fate, like in manga.
Love experience: zero.
Kazu-kun is not my boyfriend, he is my childhood friend.
Huh, I mean it's normal, but...
I'm waiting...
Hm?
For that boy, who will fall in love with me at first sight by fate.
Will you just wait?
Won't you do something for it?
Sorry, I'm going to have a morning meeting.
Take care!
Dad went ahead too.
Okay!
I first got a boyfriend in th grade, and I still kind of have a boyfriend...
but...
we are long-distance.
It may be difficult.
See, the train ticket is not free.
But I started working part-time.
I see.
Yuna, visit me at work!
There are many cool people there.
Here's a coupon! Come to see handsome guys.
You have a boyfriend, and still call other guys handsome...
She is different from me in many ways.
But somehow it's fun.
However...
Yuna!
Morning!
Morning!
But I still...
don't know what true love is.
Entrance ceremony
First-year class assignment
Ah, we are in Class .
Huh, really!
Yamamoto-san too, welcome!
Yeah!
Kazuomi!
Oh, then, later!
Yeah!
Which class?
Class .
Both of us, again?
I'm sorry!
Isn't it fate to be in the same class with your childhood friend?
Eh, no no!
What's with that cold smile?
There are only classes.
Being in the same class is not fate.
Then, what is fate for you?
Fate... it's more...
Amazing!
Hm?
The Prince I saw during spring break is here!
Prince?
Akari...
Hm?
You forgot your keys again.
Ah, thank you.
Yuna, he is my brother, Rio.
So she is Yuna.
Brother? Twins?
Huh, Yuna-chan...
From the poo-
Don't say more!
Congratulation! Aoto Gakuen High School Entrance Ceremony
Spring is the season of change.
In your new class, with your new friend, your school years-
So Rio looks like your first love, that Prince.
Don't make fun of me!
Hm?
That my first love is a prince from a picture book...
Why? That's all fine!
But that Prince, he is someone you like...
It's different! It doesn't mean I would like him...
Just they looked similar when I saw him...
Ah, sorry, he's your brother, Akari-chan...
Ah, don't worry, it's all good.
Yeah, talk about something else...
What should we talk about...
Hmm, I wonder...
Ah, I broke up with my boyfriend.
Huuh...
Huh, when?
Now!
Huuh!
It really is fine.
Akari-chan, are you okay?
Yup.
Isn't it hard? It has to be... Must be tough, if you want to...
Funny! Why would you cry about it, Yuna?
Well, it can't be helped anymore.
Hm? It's tasty!
Akari-chan, did you really like him?
Hm?
Ah!
Maybe, did you put this in my shoe box?
Huh?
During lunch break, please come to the emergency exit at the school building.
Kusuhara
I see. Then, I'm glad.
I was about to reject.
Sorry!
I was mean just now.
No, don't worry about it!
Besides, it would cause trouble if you liked me, Yamamoto-kun.
First, drop the formal language.
And then...
Don't look down!
I'm here.
That's all.
Call me just Rio.
So...
Hm?
The one who wrote this letter may be here soon.
Ah s- sorry!
Ah, there you are! I was looking for you!
I'm feeling sleepy, so I'll rest a bit in the infirmary.
Uhm.
I asked the others to have lunch with you. Sorry.
Later!
Been thinking about it, Ichihara-san and Yamamoto-san, you make a surprising pair!
Did you two go to the same middle school?
Akari-chan moved to the same building as me, that's why.
Huuh, I get nervous when I talk to Yamamoto-san.
Nervous?
She's cute and thin and unrivaled.
Unrivaled?
Yeah, but I heard something scary!
Yamamoto-san has her eyes on Okazaki-san's boyfriend from Class .
Really?
Really, really!
She is working at the same place as Okazaki-san's boyfriend.
Now their relationship is in a crisis.
No good!
No good indeed, she knew about Okazaki-san, and yet she made a pass at him.
That's why she was cool about it.
Even before breaking up, she had feelings for the next person.
Yamamoto-san, we need to talk!
Come for a moment.
Yuna! I have work today, but before that, do you want to stop by somewhere?
S- sorry. I have plans for today.
I see.
Then, see you tomorrow!
I couldn't return her "See you".
I'm angry at Akari-chan.
I'm frustrated.
It's not something she should take lightly.
STOP
It's something she should take good care of.
I don't want someone who falls in love like that to know how I feel now.
So, I just don't think, that if you broke up with your boyfriend yesterday...
you should act as cool as Akari-chan did.
Did Yamamoto-san say she was cool with it?
No, but...
Yamamoto-san was crying in the infirmary today.
Hmm?
You are angry at Yamamoto-san without even asking her first?
It's weird.
Since Akari-chan is unrivaled
and she's cool with everything
I got angry at her.
I was jealous, mad, dismissive.
That's how I've been protecting myself, lacking from confidence.
Sorry I dragged you along.
It's okay!
I told you leave me alone!
You have a girlfriend, and you ask me out?
Didn't I reject you clearly enough?
You really make me mad!
Aha, I just-
What are you laughing at?
Come on, Akari-chan...
Don't touch me!
Kazu-kun?
Don't get worked up!
She doesn't like it.
What that guy's doing here?
Let go of me!
Akari-chan!
Enough.
I'll quit this job.
Huh?
Why would you quit, when you haven't done anything wrong?
Hm?
I'm sorry for believing in those rumors.
It's fine.
In fact, it's true, I fall in love easier than the people around me.
And every time, I just transfer schools again before being able to solve it.
So you don't have to force it, Yuna.
Hm?
You don't have to force being my friend.
I'll stop by the store before home.
Even after telling you, that my first love was a prince from a picture book...
you didn't make fun of me.
And I didn't believe, even in a friend like that.
Dad, morning!
M- morning!
What is Yuna doing so early?
She would lose determination if she didn't focus.
I'm off!
Take care!
Morning!
M- morning! Yuna?
Went ahead because she had something to do.
I see.
Yuna has a big heart.
Hm?
If you open up to her, Yamamoto-san.
You really are a nice person, Kazuomi-kun.
You should go out with Yuna!
What, so suddenly?
You two would make an amazing couple.
You should like her!
Only if... but you can't just like someone like that.
No, surprisingly, you can turn it on like a switch...
Then...
could you fall in love with me?
Huh?
See? You can't fall in love just by telling that.
Huh? Ah, right!
I'm- I'm shocked!
What are you doing there?
Ah, morning!
Huh? Did I make him mad?
He's always like that in the morning.
Rio!
Morning!
Morning!
Hey, do you know that girl?
She's been there for a long time.
Why? Is she fine?
Hey...
Hm?
About Akari-chan...
What?
Your boyfriend...
And what?
It's...
Akari-chan... didn't do anything.
Huh? Are you calling my boyfriend a liar?
Don't butt in what you have nothing to do with.
Annoying!
Yuna?
Enough already...
I'm scared...
But!
Wait, Okazaki-san! Apologize!
You are blaming Akari-chan for something that is not even true!
It's not the time for me to look down!
I... I will ask Akari-chan again to forgive me for believing in gossips!
Please, apologize to Akari-chan!
I told you yesterday, I have nothing to do with your boyfriend.
But sorry if I made you feel bad.
W... why did you apologize to her, Akari-chan?
Think about that girl who we left in the classroom, it was enough.
What did you think...
Sorry...
But I would have hated myself if I didn't do anything.
But, Akari-chan...
I want to be your friend, Akari-chan!
So please tell me if something happens!
I want a friend who we can share with, when we have a hard time or when we are sad!
I don't know if I can do it right away...
but...
I want to do it!
I'll do my best to do it!
So... I'll share them with you too, Yuna!
Uhm!
Our values may be completely different...
but still...
Let's keep being friends!
Hey, Yuna!
Hm?
Makeover?
No! I overslept...
What extreme pose you sleep in, Yuna?
Hey, stop looking at it!
Okay, going home!
No, no! We are late!
It's okay, it's okay!
Wait!
Faster!
Oh! Shopping?
Yeah.
Hm?
Ah, Yuna-chan, who helped Akari, I just remembered it again.
Th... that again?
You were really cool.
But you say it while laughing...
Sorry, sorry!
Ah, also, that manga you lent me last time was fun!
Really? Next time, I'll bring the following!
Okay, thank you!
Later!
I like Rio-kun.
If I were to admit it, I would like him more and more.
I already knew you like him, but Yuna, you don't act at all!
Act?
Right, like a confession.
No way, no way! Not yet!
Why? Then, when?
That's...
When time comes for it...
Huh?
Now, just meeting and talking with Rio-kun is enough for me.
You can't be helped...
Hm?
Welcome!
Thank you!
Hey!
This is my first time studying together.
Same for me.
We were waiting!
Akari-chan!
Should I lock?
Ah, yes, close it.
Hey, Yuna...
Why did you invite Kazuomi-kun too?
Eh, well, Kazu-kun isn't good in Math either...
And it's better to study together...
And because I'm a little nervous...
Kazuomi-kun, can you help me pick up some things from the store?
Okay!
Enjoy the nervousness!
Ah, cold!
Sorry that you just came to study and I suddenly took you shopping.
Ah, I have my parents home, so I was planning going out anyways.
It was just good timing.
Huh?
It will eventually begin when you spend a lot of time together.
"Why are you lazing around?" "Stop watching movies, and study instead!"
But it's not like they couldn't get along.
I kind of understand that feeling.
Choose one sweet from each!
Okay!
Nice to know such a nice person.
Hm?
Your brother, doing these for Yuna.
Ah...
The guy Yuna likes, after all it's your brother.
Yeah, how did you know?
Been watching them for a while.
I see...
Should we start?
Y- yes!
This is the first time... I'm in a guy's room.
Was it Math ?
Dear Yamamoto Rio
Ah...
I got it on the train. I rejected her, but I forgot to return it.
So you rejected her?
Yeah.
She may be nice if you talked to her.
Hm?
She had the courage to confess, don't hurt her in a hurry...
So it would have been better if I didn't give a proper answer?
I think that would hurt the other person even more.
Is that so...
I would absolutely hate that.
If it won't work, don't make them wonder, just turn down properly.
Otherwise, you would keep thinking about what you should do.
I see.
Hmm...
Talking from experience.
Hm?
Well, I couldn't confess either.
But now I'm glad I couldn't do it back then.
I understand that feeling, when you can't confess.
You like someone, Yuna-chan?
Ah... uhm...
Well...
Why don't you confess?
I know I would be turned down.
It would be pointless.
It's not that you can't confess.
It's not like me.
H- how different?
It would... break the rules...
Ah... sorry.
Akari isn't here.
Huh?
She's Yuna-chan, Akari's friend from the time she forgot her keys.
Sorry for bothering you!
Nice to meet you! I'm Akari's... Akari and Rio-kun's mom!
Ah, sorry, I just thought Rio-kun and Akari would be here.
What are you doing?
Akari?
Do you even know how rude you are both to me and Rio?
Rio would never do what you think of!
You shouldn't have married again to Rio's father if you are so worried!
Does that mean...
They aren't blood-related.
Akari...
You should be angry too!
We are siblings after all!
Calm down.
I really can't believe it!
Worry about yourself!
Akari...
The girl Rio-kun likes is...
Sorry you had to see it.
It's okay.
Sorry I didn't talk about my family.
Don't apologize!
Uhm...
See you tomorrow!
Thank you for having us!
T- thank you for having us!
Why are you crying, Yuna?
I'm not crying.
Every time, why...
I'm really sorry about yesterday.
You don't have to apologize!
I have work today, but I asked Rio to continue studying together.
Huh?
It's not my apology, but...
Ah maybe it's inconvenient?
No, but more importantly...
Ahh...
My mom has been like that for a long time... but I got used to it!
I see...
Tell me if anything happens!
Yeah!
Did you do the Biology homework?
I don't understand it!
Don't overdo it.
Hm?
Akari can be pushy.
If you don't want to study-
It's not like that!
Ah, I see.
Ah!
No good!
Looks like it will rain.
Yeah...
Let's go!
Huh!
Huh?
Don't you have work?
Huh?
Ah, sorry! I heard when you were talking with Yuna.
Ah, uhm... the work was a lie.
It would be hard to go home... or rather... I don't want to.
Thought I would go to some unknown place, but...
But like this, I can't...
An unknown place?
Yeah, somewhere not here...
Ah, sorry, forget it! I was saying weird things!
Do you have a little time for me?
Hm?
I hate rain so much.
It was raining on the day, when I found out my dad marries Akari's mom.
She transferred school when we were in second grade, it was love at first sight.
I started liking her more and more.
I decided to confess.
But then...
Rio messaged me on LINE and wanted to talk.
If you read a message already, you have to reply.
I was lost...
Or no... in my heart I already knew what to answer.
Sounded important.
Rio-kun
We need to talk. Waiting in the park.
I was going to the meeting place.
I met with my mom on the way.
And I found out, her partner was Rio's father.
Then, my father called me.
But somehow Akari was on the phone.
Then the four of us went to eat...
and my father told me he will get married again.
I asked her if she saw what I sent on LINE, but she didn't.
I lied that I dropped my phone in a puddle and that it broke.
I pretended it never happened...
because it was necessary so we can become a family.
In the end, I missed the timing to confess to her and it passed.
Ah no, I'm not crying.
I'm sorry, I forced you to open your heart, Rio-kun.
No, I was the one who started talking.
Besides, now I feel better.
I'm glad you listened to me, Yuna-chan.
But... this is our secret.
Would you have said yes if nothing happened?
It's pointless thinking about that.
Soon after that, looks like Rio started dating another girl.
He didn't really have strong feelings towards me.
Every time I move, I think it's like moving to a new world.
My mom has divorced twice.
With each moving, I also changed my family name.
Always swayed.
But she said she would properly build a family this time.
Like a normal family.
Normal?
A warm family, like Yuna's family.
Always being around loved ones.
Yamamoto-san, we are here!
Rainy days are most beautiful from here.
I came here a lot in th grade.
Hm?
You can see all the different buildings from here.
I was excited to see what kind of world will be in front of my eyes.
You really went here? How was it?
It's the same!
Familiar houses, street lights, stores...
It was the same reality.
Well, that's right, some things can't be solved, so we have to accept them.
Eh, it sounded pretty cold.
Nope, it's feels a lot more honest, rather than just half-hearted words.
Even if I can't take you everywhere here, at least I wanted to come here with you.
Here?
Yup, my favorite place!
It's the first time I bring someone with me.
The rain is not stopping.
Yeah...
Yuna-chan, you should confess to the person you like, so you won't have regrets.
Hm?
And if you get rejected, I'll do my best to comfort you!
I have a reason now to confess.
Yuna-chan?
Sorry, I was too insensitive...
I...
like you, Rio-kun!
So... reject me!
So I won't have to wonder.
And then, I want to be your friend, Rio-kun...
who you can talk to when there is no one else!
Thank you for your confession.
But...
sorry...
No, thank you for rejecting me properly.
Then, I'll go.
Next time we meet, let's go back as before.
Hm?
Ah, no...
Huh! There's our school!
Waa!
Uh-oh!
Safe!
Are you okay?
Sorry...
Are these the sign of something?
I'm going to get the wrong idea...
But it will be different.
I'll rent a DVD before going home.
Ah, later!
I feel strange...
Hee, it suits well!
No, I'm not talking about this panel.
I feel strange that we are in school during summer holiday.
Ah, right.
If I didn't have club activities, I would just keep working non-stop.
Ah, I also have that feeling.
Kazu-kun, good luck with your work!
Are you saving up for something?
Ah, uhm...
A camera.
A camera?
You like taking photos?
Ah, it's not like that.
Ah, perhaps you want to record a movie?
Movie?
Your dream was to be a movie director ever since elementary school.
Don't talk about it, it's embarrassing.
Huh, why? It's cool, right?
Yeah! It's admirable you have a dream!
Hey, don't make fun of me!
I'm not! It's cool!
Ah, excuse me!
You came to school too, Rio-kun.
I'm here to prepare for the school festival.
Hey, Kazu!
Oi!
Ah, the manga you gave me the other day...
I was shocked at the last part!
I cried a bit.
Yuna is amazing.
Yuna-chan, did you cry too?
In fact, yes.
Yes, she is amazing.
Can I do my best, just like Yuna?
There's just something in the same author's manga-
Ichihara-san!
What's up?
Ah, I would need Ichihara-san for something.
Huh? Agatsuma-kun? Me?
Nothing suspicious.
But I'm happy you remembered my name.
So, we were just talking about going to the festival together with everyone.
Would you want to join us, Ichihara-san and Yamamoto-san?
Is it okay?
Or course!
Akari-chan! Let's go to the festival with everyone!
Let's go!
Then, it's decided!
B- but...
Can we invite Kazuomi-kun too?
Huh?
Of course! The more of us go, the more fun it is!
Ah, sorry, I went ahead!
No, I'm glad!
Yay!
Huh... Akari-chan?
Kazu-kun? Since when, since when?
You are too loud!
Ah, s- sorry.
For how long do you like him?
Well, if you noticed...
Yeah, yeah!
When I was together with him, and I didn't know what to say...
Yeah, yeah?
Yuna... please stop that.
Ask anything and I'll help!
Okay, thank you!
What about you, Yuna?
Uh, so...
Actually, I want to ask something from you, Akari-chan.
Hm?
Can you teach me how to use makeup and such to look cute?
I know I have to give up on him.
But I still like Rio-kun.
So even if just a little, but I want to be cuter.
I want to stop thinking about him.
You're nice, Yuna.
Hm? What?
Alright, let's both become cute!
Yeah!
Ichihara-san is really nice.
Hm, do you like Yuna-chan or something?
Oh, did you find out?
It's okay if I like Ichihara-san, right?
Why are you asking me?
Haha, you're right!
I'm home.
Huh, cute makeup.
I wonder what's his type...
I'll ask it from Kazu-kun next time.
Stop, absolutely don't do it!
Ehhh...
Really, don't worry about that!
Thank you for your work!
Huh...
Huh, you brought it for me?
Your mom said you went out without an umbrella.
Mom did?
Thank you for bringing it.
Will tomorrow's summer festival be canceled?
In that case, should we instead hang out somewhere with everyone?
Hey, you!
Can't hear from the rain.
Ah, I see.
Movie, bowling, karaoke...
Or should we just go shopping with everyone?
So?
Mhm.
But I hope for sunshine...
I prepared my yukata too...
Hey, do you like Kazu?
Huh, what's that so suddenly?
Do you?
Stop, why would I talk about love with my brother?
I never wanted to be your brother, stupid.
Why are you so rude now?
That's why I hate rainy days.
Hm, what?
Enough.
Say something!
No matter what!
Are you mad?
If I made you angry, sorry.
I'm not mad...
Don't do that out of nowhere!
I'm off.
I'll pretend this one didn't happen either.
Don't ruin what we've been able to build so far.
Ah, Rio-kun!
I'm glad there is sunshine!
Right.
I can't relax now until the festival!
I was just walking in the house and my mom asked me to go shopping.
Ah, sorry, I talk too-
Sorry.
I can't go today.
Huh, why?
Because if I go, she can't enjoy it...
I... kissed Akari yesterday.
I'm the worst, huh.
She desperately wanted us to be siblings, but I messed up everything.
It's corny.
I know it was corny.
But it's ridiculous.
Why only I have to put up with it?
It's-
Do you think only you're suffering, Rio-kun?
What about Akari-chan's feelings?
I just had to-
No good!
Forgetting what happened...
Don't just forget all the cherished feelings.
Sorry... I was arrogant.
No, it's just as you said, Yuna-chan.
Sorry you had to hear these.
Promise me!
You will properly face Akari-chan...
and you make peace with her.
Yeah.
I'll do it.
I'll give a proper answer.
I'm home!
Finally you are home!
Do you have a moment?
I heard you are going to the festival.
Did you change your mind?
Ah, no, that...
Hmm, wait a second.
Sorry, it's too short.
Huh?
Never mind.
Is that so?
It's no good. I always mess up when it matters.
Especially the time when I met you, Rio-kun.
Huh?
We have children at around the same age, so we should arrange a lunch meeting.
I told that to your father.
But somehow suddenly we ran into Akari.
When was that?
When... The first day we met.
It seemed like Akari was going somewhere.
She threw a tantrum after talking with your father.
Dad
And then she called you.
She did it...
to not make things awkward for me...
I see.
For me...
I shouldn't bring it up.
After all, that would just worsen the atmosphere.
I'm sorry for yesterday.
I'm your brother...
I shouldn't have done it without thinking.
I'm really sorry.
Also... thank you.
Huh?
I'm glad to be a part of your family, Akari.
When I said I never wanted to be your brother... that was a lie.
I'm sorry I talked like a child.
I didn't know anything...
Sorry for being a selfish brother.
I'll forgive just once.
I have to go to the summer festival now.
Never do it again!
Then, later!
Rio, I'm sorry I wanted to pretend your feelings never existed.
Akari, I'm sorry you had to do everything alone until now.
Therefore...
thank you for your white lie.
Yuna-chan, thank you very much.
Huh?
That I realized my feelings before turning into obsession.
I feel like I was able to let go of it.
So don't worry about it anymore.
Don't force yourself.
Mhm.
Thank you for scolding me.
Is that so?
I'm glad it's easier now for you, Rio-kun.
Let's go soon.
Agatsuma and the others are waiting.
Eh? Stamp rally?
Right, since our class will wander in the school, in various costumes
people who find us could get stamps.
Huh!
And you get a gift if you get all!
Oh, sounds fun!
Will Rio-kun cosplay too?
He will!
Huh, what?
You have to ask him for yourself...
He doesn't show it to anyone.
I see...
Ah, I hope you will find me!
Yeah, I will! Good luck!
Hey, Hashimoto and Yumiko from Class are dating!
Really?
It's confession boom around the school festival!
I wonder if I would confess too.
Akari-chan, a little higher!
Up?
Yeah!
Here!
All right!
Hey...
What?
No, you first.
On the school festival's day, since I can't do it alone, could you curl my hair again?
Of course I can.
T... then one more thing...
Hm?
I think I will confess to Rio-kun.
It's because of Rio-kun, that I no longer feel the way I used to.
So, me right now... me, who can face forward...
I want to confess once more!
Maybe I should calm down, I'm being selfish-
You are not selfish at all!
Thank you.
What did you want to ask, Akari-chan?
Ah, so...
I have to go to the toilet!
I wonder what she has to go through...
I won't tell it to Agatsuma-kun.
Why is that... when I see Yuna...
why my chest tightens?
Kazuomi-kun?
Hey!
What may be on your mind?
Hah, what's with that language?
It's rare to see that face on you, Kazuomi-kun.
This.
Hm?

Honorable mentions
Woah, amazing! Congratulations!
Hmm, right...
I should be happy...
Hm?
I bought a camera and an editing software from the work money.
I was going to go in with % of me.
Kazuomi-kun?
My family... you should go to college, get a job, and you will be happy, they say.
Aiming to be a movie director is out of question.
But, if I show my skills here, can I go to a film school, I was wondering.
But only a mention...
The fact, that I aimed even higher, and believed in that is embarrassing.
Sorry... for the congratulation...
Ah, no, I'm sorry for my blah-blah.
Eh, what happened now is secret to everyone, even Yuna...
Ah, okay.
I'm a disgusting woman.
Even though Kazuomi-kun is depressed, I'm carried away by our own secret.
Are you okay?
Yeah, just got something in my eye.
I have a mirror!
Ah, it's fi-
Eh? His eyes...
Are these... the sign of something?
Ah, sorry...
Kazuomi-kun... would you like to go out with me?
After all, you... like me.
I'm sorry Yamamoto-san, but...
I don't like you.
Ah, I see! Eh!
Oh no, I got it all wrong, I'm embarrassed.
You made me happy, but... sorry.
It's okay, I was way too fast!
Please don't tell anyone what happened just now!
Okay, I won't tell.
Thank you! You saved me!
I haven't even thought about being rejected, even for a second.
I'm embarrassed... I got excited on my own...
I'm an idiot.
I won't like Yamamoto-san...
I settled on that...
I won't fall in love with the girl who likes Rio.
That's right, I settled on that.
I'm sorry.
I promised you I will tell everything.
But sorry... now I can't.
I'm home!
That's enough!
So are you saying I should just put up with it?
Put up with what? In work, in the house, everything is how you want-
Enough! No need to talk more!
No need, no need!
What's wrong?
Akari-chan, welcome home! It's nothing...
What do you mean nothing?
Eh...
Come on, get along you two...
Eh, sorry, sorry.
Dad is being too harsh!
Ah, okay, okay.
Talk it over together!
Come on...

Where are you, Rio-kun?
Before the curl in my hair, that Akari-chan made, is gone...
Before my face gets too shiny...
I want Rio-kun to see me!
I don't want anyone to see me.
They can see my head, so I didn't break the stamp rally's rule that you can't hide.
Hm? Ah, she has a card.
I want to give her a stamp, but...
Rio-kun doesn't want to be seen, maybe he's somewhere without many people.
If I meet Rio-kun, I'll ask casually if he has some time before the night festival.
Ah, I'm nervous even before I would confess.
It's dangerous to walk without looking ahead.
Huh, Rio-kun...
Rio-kun, you are-
Don't say anything!
Why? You look so cool!
Haha...
Absolute lie.
Ahh, I can't, it's too bothersome!
These tight leggings...
But it looks good on you!
You don't have to comfort me.
I'm serious! Like the prince from my picture book.
Picture book?
There is a picture book I love ever since I was small.
And the prince in that was my first love.
Your first love?
Sorry, if it makes you sad.
No, it doesn't.
If you say so, Yuna-chan, I guess this look is not too bad.
Also, this is not a good time to talk, but...
your hair looks cute today.
Thank you! I'm glad!
Hey-
Oh no!
What are you doing?
Ah, it's beautiful!
Somehow, it looks like magic!
Huh... am I?
Am I...
For Yuna-chan...
Eh, well, before the night festival-
Sorry, can we talk later?
Hmm?
I have something urgent.
I couldn't ask him...
Youth
Photo Contest
The face cutout panels have brought more people than I thought.
You can smile again.
Kazuomi-kun has been treating me normally ever since that.
Also, there will be a movie during the night festival.
I know, that's my favorite movie.
Eh, really?
Yeah, it's from my favorite director. Even though the movie is years old...
The way they use the lights-
Huh, after all, I really like him.
His face...
I want to watch it.
Watch?
Huh, watch! Movies like that! Want to watch it together?
Hm?
Hey, Kazuomi-kun, you know much about movies! You could give me a commentary!
Do I bother you?
You don't!
Let's watch it!
Is it okay?
Why are you surprised... we are just watching a movie...
That's right.
The movie is at :, so we should arrive at the screen minutes before that.
Yeah, I will!
Kazuomi-kun is so kind. So kind, yet he doesn't like me.
Can't wait for the movie.
Yeah.
I'm happy, but also sad...
Here!
I have four!
Thank you very much!
Bye!
Agatsuma!
Rio?
What's wrong? You should be in the garden now, Rio!
During the stamp rally, if you are not-
I... like Yuna-chan!
Sorry... but I felt like it's not fair if I won't tell you, Agatsuma!
Haha, you finally told me!
I noticed! You were always watching Ichihara-san, Rio.
I'll go now. I will go around the school festival with Ichihara-san.
Then, I'll tell her how I feel.
I'm also serious about Ichihara-san.
Took a sneaky photo?
It looks amazing!
Hehe, it was a limited sale!
Hee?
Oh, what's the time?
A little past pm...
Sorry, I have to go.
Is that... confession time?
No, no, not that! I'll meet with Agatsuma-kun.
Hm? Agatsuma-kun?
I couldn't talk to Rio-kun yet...
You and Kazu-kun?
Huh, eh, well...
I'm glad! See you later!
Yeah...
So it really is here... the confession boom.
Well, I'm one of them too.
Sorry, did you wait?
No, I just arrived.
You didn't have to run like that.
Didn't want you to wait.
I'm sorry too, for selfishly asking you to come.
It's okay! I'm sure you want to talk with someone while you stamp.
Agatsuma was very straight forward about Yuna-chan.
He's kind. They make a good pair.
If Yuna-chan chooses him...
I hate it...
I'm selfish, but...
I want Yuna-chan's smile more than anything else.
Please take one!
Thanks!
Kazu!
Oh, what?
Did you see Yuna-chan?
I saw her walking with Agatsuma-kun just now, but why don't you call her-
I left my phone where I changed clothes, but how were they?
Huh?
Were they like serious, or having fun?
Rio...
Never mind, I'm going!
Rio, you...
Huh?
The girl you like... is not Yamamoto-san?
Heh?
Then, when you and Yamamoto-san...
W- wait, Kazu!
Look, I don't know what you've seen, and I won't say more on that...
The girl I like is not Akari.
Huh?
It's a long story and even I don't know why I did some things...
Let's try not to have regrets!
Bye!
H- hey!
Don't have regrets?
It's too late...
But, can I tell her that?
After watching the movie together...
I will tell Yamamoto-san... my feelings.
No, I'll do it right now!
Inui-kun!
Oh?
Do you have a moment?
Teacher...
Uhm...
There you go!
Thank you!
Where next?
It's been a while.
Eh, sorry.
Huh?
I wanted to invite you so much, Ichihara-san.
Every time I see you, Ichihara-san, my heart feels warmer and warmer.
It's a gentle feeling.
So... do you want to spend the night festival with me?
It just started raining.
But the sky is clear-
Rain?
Thank you.
It was the first time someone has confessed to me.
It made me happy.
But...
There is someone else in Ichihara-san's heart.
I'm sorry.
Ah, no...
It's weird for me to say, but...
good luck, Ichihara-san!
Thank you for the support!
I..
I...
won't run away anymore...
from my feelings!
Yuna-chan...
Yuna-chan!
Rio-kun!
Yuna-chan!
I want to say it one more time now!
I just want you to know now!
It can't end, until I tell you how I feel.
Yuna-chan!
Rio-kun, there is something I want to tell you!
I... wanted to meet you Yuna-chan! I wanted to see your face!
Maybe I'm just a nuisance to you, Yuna-chan...
and maybe there is someone else in your heart.
But I...
I like you, Yuna-chan!
There's no one else there. I like you too, Rio-kun!
You are insistent!
But...
I like you so much, Rio-kun!
It's okay.
I think you are just as insistent, Yuna-chan.
I arrived a little too early.

Reception
Yamamoto-san, have you arrived yet?
I'm very sorry, but I can't go. Please watch the movie without me.
Yamamoto-san, have you arrived yet?
I'm very sorry, but I can't go. Please watch the movie without me.
Yamamoto-san, have you arrived yet?
I'm very sorry, but I can't go. Please watch the movie without me.
I want to tell you something after the movie.
I'm very sorry, but I can't go. Please watch the movie without me.
I want to tell you something after the movie.
Sorry for the wait!
It's fine.
No way, it's not responding at all.
Dialogue: ,::.,::.,Top,,,,,,The movie is starting right now!
My brother won't come home today again?
Right, he's running up and down every day with his best effort.
I'm proud of my husband.
What's dinner?
Saury. It was cheap.
Do you want to eat together today?
Can you help me?
Akari-chan, want to watch it together?
Ah, hey, did you see Inui-kun?
Inui-kun?
My phone broke.
That's so bad!
As for Inui-kun, I saw him going with the teacher.
Huh, where?
What do you think, Inui-kun?
Well, you don't have to answer right away, and you have to ask your family too.
You have to work hard!
I came from Kyoto to meet with you, Inui-kun.
Kyoto?
Right, first of all, you have to get good results in the next contest.
Kyoto.
Contest?
Sorry for being late Where are you?
Huh, Inui-kun?
Wait, Yamamoto-san!
I'm sorry for being late!
So...
So, I...
Nah, it's fine!
I mean, I made you feel uncomfortable, so sorry!
Asking you to watch a movie together must have sounded very suspicious.
Yamamoto-san...
Let's just forget about it.
I told you, I move on quickly. Haven't I told you, I've already moved on!
But Yamamoto-san, I...
I don't feel anything for you, Kazuomi-kun!
So that's why...
I see.
Never mind.
I'm sorry I broke our movie plan.

That's not what I said!
All you do is keep saying how bad I am in everything!
I get it, okay, okay.
Don't act so troubled! Just tell me properly if you want to tell something!
It's Eve, and you chose to be with me?
Because I'm meeting Rio-kun later.
And also, I wanted to give you this, Akari-chan.
But I haven't prepared anything!
Don't worry about that!
Thank you.
Akari-chan, what happened with Kazu-kun?
Huh?
Something did.
Nothing particular.
The four of us no longer meet.
Right...
I mean, Akari-chan, do you and Kazu-kun avoid each other?
Nothing like that!
But...
Don't worry about me!
What will you do with Rio on your Christmas date?
We will celebrate at home.
Celebrate? Christmas?
Well, it's a coincidence, but today is the th day anniversary of us dating, so...
It's not the time to walk home with me.
Huh?
I see. Will you be in your house?
Rio for sure will be cozy.
Akari-chan?
At least your parents are happy with each other.
Not at all. The are fighting a lot too.
Really?
Yes, but the next day after they fight, my dad makes us dinner.
That's their usual pattern for making peace.
Huuh?
My mom is simple, she can forgive him for most things, if she's full.
They sound happy.
Not really, it's normal.
It's not normal!
Akari-chan?
Ah, Yuna, I think you should be more proud that you have a nice dad and mom.
Thank you...
Well, I have work, so that's it for today!
Huh, work today?
You get paid more on Christmas.
I see. Then, later!

What present Yuna-chan would like?
You know more about Yuna than me, come on.
Huh?
Hey, don't avoid me!
I don't.
Then... Akari?
Just forget it.
Kazu?
Just pretend it never happened...
But, it was for the best.
Huh, what are you saying?
I was called in on the day of the school festival.
A professor of the Kyoto Art University has seen my work I made for the contest.
He will give me an endorsement if I have good results again.
If I miss this, my parents will never accept my dream.
Kazu...
That's my chance.
I get this is your chance, but what does it have to do with Akari?
How was it for the best?
I will get the results and go to Kyoto.
Huh?
Even if I were to try and still have feelings...
I wouldn't be able to stand next to Yamamoto-san.
It brings up sad memories.
Don't worry about that, Akari is strong!
I'm saying it for real!
Huh?
Yamamoto-san looks lonely all the time... especially recently...
Kazu, you are angry.
I am angry!
At myself...
I know Yamamoto-san is lonely, and I want to be by her side...
But I can't, as it is now.
Kazu...
So I want to have confidence...
Sorry, I'm venting...
Hey Kazu!
Yuna will be happy with anything!
As long as you choose it for her.
When was the last time we had a dinner as a family?
Mom and Dad... I wonder if they would change when they are full.
I'm not good at cooking.
My curry was praised by Mom some time ago.
Maybe I'm dreaming too much, but...
I want everyone to like this place.
Hm?
You have no idea how others feel! You just push whatever you want!
What do you mean? I have a life too! It can't be helped!
Can't be helped, can't be helped... You don't even try to have a talk!
What the hell would you want?
What's wrong with that attitude of yours?
I just wanted a family...
Yeah, sure.
Without the kids, I would have left a long time ago.
I see...
It's my fault.
No, I-
Sorry.
Akari, I didn't mean!
Come.
Stop!
Akari!
Akari-chan, wait!
Huh, work now?
Store.
What a terrible person I am...
Stay here, I'll look for her.
I'm home...
Did you meet Akari-chan?
Akari?
Huh?
And I didn't chase after her...
Yuna?
Sorry, wait!
I'll search Akari with my dad, so today-
No way!
Rio-kun, don't go, nor your dad!
Yuna-chan?
I'll go search for Akari-chan, Rio-kun...
Let me try to bring back Akari-chan!
Let's go, Rio!
Wait, Dad! Let's talk!
You too, Mom!
Yuna
It sucks!
Hey, what's wrong?
Nothing...
You face tells me something happened.
It didn't mean to tell that.
Your phone is ringing.
I mean, you didn't care how I am, so it's none of your business, Kazuomi-kun.
It's from Yuna.
Don't pick up!
None of my business, right?
Why now, when you've been avoiding me?
You distanced yourself from me first.
No, no, you rejected me.
You wanted to forget it.
Kazuomi-kun, you were so good at expressing yourself, so get to the point!
This is it, Yamamoto-san!
Selfishly, I accepted everything, and I didn't care about my feelings...
But what are your feelings, Kazuomi-kun? Get to the point!
Why are you silent?
Tell me.
I thought I have to leave you alone. I thought I would be rejected.
Even if I said it, you would think I'm a nuisance.
Tell me.
I... when I saw your painful face, that was about to cry-
Tell me already!
You wanted to disappear, you wanted to go to Kyoto!
Ugh... and I wanted to be alone? Back off!
We can talk later, now Akari-chan...
Dad, and Mom, you can't do it anymore.
Eh...
Do you want to part ways?
I know I have no rights to say that...
We've been ignoring it for a while.
Rio...
We are full of ourselves, turning a blind eye to the family.
We were spoiled.
We've been just hurting her precious family.
We are the only one who can cover the wounds we made.
If you two can't go on anymore, I don't have anything to say.
But if that isn't the case...
then face me, Akari, and each other!
Rio-kun...
Carrying our burden together...
isn't that what a family is about?
At least I want it to be.
No, it will be!
I was a bad friend.
I didn't realize Akari-chan was suffering.
I couldn't notice it...
I cared about myself so much, that I didn't notice.
I wouldn't have seen it...
even though I was always close to Akari-chan.
I'm sorry! I promised you...
a friend who you can share with when you have a hard time or when you are sad!
And yet, I...
I have completely different values from you, Akari-chan.
My world has broadened quickly.
I learned to love myself.
And yet...
So...
I don't want to only receive!
And I don't want to just wait!
This time, I want to show you, I want to tell you!
I want to be close to you, Akari-chan!
And I want to bring smile on your face more and more!
Let me be such a friend!
Yamamoto-san!
Huh?
Why...
That day... on the rooftop...
I wish I didn't lie!
I wish I was persistent and told you after the school festival!
Even if I lack confidence, I wish I stayed by your side, Yamamoto-san!
Yamamoto-san, even when you kept giving me signals...
I was weak.
Made up reasons to run away!
Kazuomi-kun...
But...
I'll stop making excuses.
I won't give up on you, because of my dreams.
And I won't give up on my dreams either.
When my dreams will come true, I still want to be...
by your side, Yamamoto-san.
I like you.
Always... always...
I've always liked you, Yamamoto-san!
So am I.
I don't want to get hurt.
Being considerate, act as an adult...
Run away and lie...
But after all, still get hurt...
But, I'll stop doing that.
I want to be who I am!
I want you to say beside me as I am!
I like you so much, Kazuomi-kun.
Achoo!
Ah, no way!
Haha!
Sorry...
Let's go home!

Where are you?
Sorry for the worry. Wait in my room, I'll be home soon.
Ah, Yuna!
I'm sorry Akari-chan, I didn't realize how much pain you were in.
I only cared about myself.
Yuna, you gave me enough support.
That day, I'm glad I met you, Yuna.
I'm glad you became my friend!
I feel the same way too!
Look, I told you Yuna will be waiting outside.
Right.
Huh, wait, you two...
Uhm, well...
Huh, huh, huuh!
What happened?
Sorry, I'll tell you later but we have to go now.
Huuh, what?
Akari...
I'm sorry.
I ran away, not caring about anything.
But, even then, I want to be here....
with everyone.
I'm also sorry! I didn't care enough about you and made you have a hard time!
Let me properly apologize too.
I'm really sorry.
From now on, I want this place to feel like you can always come home to.
Let's eat together, dinner is ready soon.
Okay.
Can you set up the chopsticks?
Chopsticks?
Speaking of which, it's not really a Christmas meal.
Huh?
I have some shirataki left, want to exchange?
Haha!
What?
What a nice brother I have!
Huh, what do you mean?
So it really was curry
Yes!
Merry Christmas!
Rio-kun!
Your hand!
Hm?
Give me quickly!
Uhm.
Here!
Is this... for me?
Yeah.
This was your Christmas present.
This?
And this is for our anniversary.
Come on, say something, I was so embarrassed, and I felt like-
Y... Yuna-chan?
Suddenly... my heart almost skipped a beat!
Sorry!
Come on, don't laugh!
I can't!
You are too cute!
I'm so embarrassed!
So it really was curry
So it really was curry
So it really was curry
So it really was curry
Our days, our days, even our , I want to spend all the anniversaries with you!
Rio-kun
No one wants to get hurt.
We don't want to get hurt.
We want to laugh as much as possible.
We make our choices for that...
or try to.
Maybe, there is no way to make everyone happy.
However...
Love me, love me not...
After the love and rejection...
Maybe we got a little closer to that.

kaerou to shinai kaerimichi itsumo doori The way back home I don't step on again, is as usual
shikai no sumikko hotondo soto kimi ga hana wo susutta In the corner of my eyes, almost out of sight, you are rubbing your nose
sora wo waru yuugata no SAIREN Cracking the sky, the sirens at night
kyuusuitou no shita are wa koumori Under the water tower, there is a bat
bokura wa tokei wo minai you ni shiteita kedo We tried not looking at our watches
sonna fuu ni shite jikan ni kitsuite shimau kara And yet, that way, we still noticed the time passing
kakikesu you ni shaberou to shite We tried to drown it out by chatting
nandaka yappari damatte shimau In the end, after all, I became silent
kimi no kage no kimi rashii yurekata wo Your shadow shakes just like you
nagameteiru dake de I was just gazing at it
nakisou ni natta yo And I almost cried
mitsuketa kotoba ikutsu tsunagetatte toozakaru No matter how many words I find, I tie them and they break away
ima ichiban tsutaetai omoi ga mune no naka koe wo ageru The feeling I want to tell you the most, is raising it's voice in my heart
sonna no subete tobi koete kodomo no mama waratte Jumping over all of them, and laughing like a child
hadashi no MERODII utau kara itsumo ima wo yurushite shimau Singing a magnificent melody, so we can always forgive the present
egao no mama zurui yo na It's unfair to smile like this
itsu no hi ka docchi ka ga tooku ni ittari shite One day, one of us, will go far away
aenaku nattari suru no ka na ima ga uso mitai ni And if I can't see you anymore, what is now will be like a lie
ja mata aeta toki imai mita ni Then, when we meet again, like now
damatta mama de soba ni irareru no kana Will I be able to stay silent by your side, I wonder
otonappoku furumattari togatte misetari Acting like an adult, being all sour
sasatta toki ni gomakashite henna kanji ni nattari And when you're stung, just ignoring it and feeling strange
souiu no matomete aiseru kurai ni Like that, we could love these alltogether
bokura wa bokura wo shinjirarete ita We believed in ourselves that much
wari to douji ni kushami shichau no ga When we were sneezing at about the same time
omoshiro katta yo It was so much fun
naki sou ni natta yo It almost made me cry
kyou ga ashita kinou ni natte dare ka ga wasure tatte Today is tomorrow, and when it becomes yesterday, someone will forget
ima kimi ga koko ni iru koto wo boku wa wasure nai kara But you are here now, and I won't forget it
mienai namida nugutte ayamaru you ni waratte Wiping invisible tears and laughing like apologizing
sawattara kiete shimai souna hosoi yubi no tsumetasa ga If I touched your slender fingers, the coldness would disappear
yakedo mitai ni nokotte iru And would remain burnt
mitsuketa kotoba ikutsu tsunagetatte toozakaru No matter how many words I find, I tie them and they break away
ima ichiban tsutaetai omoi ga mune no naka koe wo ageru The feeling I want to tell you the most, is raising it's voice in my heart
seeno de subete tobi koete bokura no mama waratte Jumping over everything on --, and laughing like we always do
hadashi no MERODII utau kara soshite isshoni te wo furunda yo Singing a magnificent melody, and wave our hands together
egao no mama mata ne tte With a smile, saying good bye
ame demo hare demo sora no nai sekai demo On rainy days, on sunny days, even in a world without a sky
mata ashita ashita ga chanto kimasu you ni See you tomorrow, may tomorrow come properly
issho janaku te mo hitori datta toshitemo Even if we are together, even if I'm alone
mata ashita no naka ni kimi ga imasu you ni I hope you will be in that "See you tomorrow"
