Ritsu: This is a video from the start of this year.

Ritsu: I'd like you gentlemen to take a look at this.

Sign: Calm Me

Aki: So I heard the drummer in Kage's band got cut.

Haru: What?! Why?

Aki: Apparently, he made a move on their female vocalist.

Haru: Oh. Ah...

Haru: So they were dating without telling the others?

Sign: Passionate Me

Sign: Worrywart Me

Aki: That's bound to cause trouble.

Haru: For real.

Sign: Emotional Me

Haru: I guess the "no dating within the band" rule is ironclad anywhere.

Aki: Of course it is.

Aki: I've never seen romantic relationships work out in any band.

Sign: Devil Me

Haru: But at the same time... That drummer's been with that band ever since they started...

Sign: Careful Me

Aki: It is pretty sad...

Sign: Virgin Me

Ritsu: Wait, what are you talking about?

Ritsu: No matter how you spin it, hooking up with bandmates is only gonna cause trouble.

Ritsu: How thoughtless can you be, really?

Ritsu: Could you imagine them arguing in the studio?

Ritsu: It'd be even worse if they started going easy on each other's sound.

Sign: months ago

Ritsu: I'd be totally against it, no matter what.

Ritsu: Like, drop dead, seriously.

Op: The wound pierced into my heart

Op: Still remains as the days continue to go by

Op: If I were to forcibly take it out, the pain would never end

Op: So I'll just leave it there

Op: Rainy, sunny, and cloudy days

Op: Spring, summer, fall, and winter

Op: days a year

Op: You're there in all of them

Op: Reach in deep

Op: And while you're at it, take away my memories, too

Haru: Huh?

Haru: Why are you here?

Ritsu: Hi!

Haru: Quiet down! What's with the energy?

Haru: You had a long walk from the station, right?

Haru: Come on inside.

Ritsu: Thanks!

Haru: We just saw each other yesterday. What's up?

Ritsu: I wanted to talk to you about something...

Haru: Er... I have work in a little bit.

Haru: So make it quick and to the point, would you?

Ritsu: We have an announcement...

Ritsu: or rather, something to discuss with you...

Haru: Hm?

Haru: Uh, absolutely not.

Haru: Wait, what? Okay, hold up.

Haru: You guys are going to start dating? You're not dating yet, are you?

Mafu: Not yet. I just told him how I felt.

Haru: Oh, damn it! We're doomed!

Haru: Wait, does Akihiko know about this?!

Ritsu: Probably, yeah. I asked him for advice about this before.

Mafu: He knows. He made me face up to it before the show.

Haru: That b*stard!

Haru: This gamble of his was way riskier than I could have imagined!

Aki: It'll all work out.

Haru: Uenoyama, you're the one who went on about how bandmate couples should drop dead!

Ritsu: Please let us have this...

Ritsu: We'll do our best.

Haru: Wait, are you serious?!

Ritsu: Please let us have this.

Ritsu: We'll do our best.

Ritsu: We might...

Ritsu: No, I'm sure we'll end up causing some trouble, but...

Haru: Listen up, you two.

Haru: Just make sure no one finds out.

Haru: The business of being in a band basically comes down to popularity.

Haru: Play your cards right, and stay aware of your surroundings.

Haru: Also, if you piss me off, expect a lecture or two.

Haru: Keep that in mind.

Haru: Stop! Seriously, knock it off!

Haru: I mean it, though! Make sure you don't post anything hinting that you're dating!

Ritsu: Yes, sir!

Haru: Okay, I get it! Now cut it out!

Aki: Huh...

Aki: Congrats.

Ritsu: Is that all you have to say, Kaji-san?

Aki: I mean, I took a gamble on this, so who am I to complain?

Aki: And I'm sure Haruki's already lectured you two, anyway.

Aki: I knew it and still let you two walk that tightrope of a concert.

Aki: It did get pretty messy, but you made it across.

Aki: Oh, yeah. Mafuyu.

Aki: I owe you the CDs you asked for the other day.

Aki: I'll go grab 'em, so wait here a sec.

Mafu: Oh, okay.

Ritsu: You know...

Ritsu: Kaji-san's always complaining about being broke,

Ritsu: but he lives in a fancy place like this?

Mafu: This is actually his roommate's house.

Ritsu: Huh...

Mafu: Apparently.

Aki: All right, here you go.

Ritsu: You got enough there?!

Aki: Help him out with that, Uenoyama.

Ritsu: Got it.

Aki: Good luck!

Ritsu: It's just like Kaji-san to not bother using a delivery service for this...

Ritsu: These are all CDs?

Mafu: Yup.

Mafu: I wanted to listen to lots of different things.

Mafu: Music is really fun.

Ritsu: Y-Yeah...

Mafu: Want to switch at the next telephone pole?

Ritsu: Nah.

Ritsu: I'll tough it out.

Mafu: 'Kay.

Mafu: Thanks.

Ritsu: Sure.

Mafu: Should I sing you a fight song?

Ritsu: The hell?

Mafu: Like they do at sports festivals.

Ugetsu: You had a visitor?

Aki: Guys from my band.

Aki: I let one of them borrow your CD.

Ugetsu: That's fine. He can have it.

Ugetsu: Akihiko, coffee.

Aki: I am not coffee.

Ugetsu: Said Aki, as he grabbed the mug to pour some for Ugetsu anyway.

Aki: Cut the narration.

Ugetsu: I wonder if I'll be able to see the kid who sang that song again.

Mafu: Good work. Thanks.

Ritsu: I'm so tired...

Mafu: You okay? Want some tea?

Mafu: You're not coming in?

Mafu: Oh. My mom's not home, so you're fine.

Mafu: Oh...

Ritsu: What's up?

Mafu: Hiiragi...

Mafu: One of my friends from my old neighborhood says he's on his way over.

Ritsu: Huh?

Ritsu: Well, I'll head home, then.

Ritsu: See ya! Ow!

Ritsu: Bye!

Hiiragi: It's so hot. Don't you have tea or anything?

Mafu: Why are you here?

Hiiragi: What? Can't a guy come visit?

Mafu: I guess it's fine.

Shizu: I didn't know you had a do—

Mafu: Tama, don't.

Hiiragi: Why the hell did you give it a cat's name?!

Mafu: His name is Kedama.

Hiiragi: Damn it!

Hiiragi: What's up?

Mafu: We're gonna do more shows and enter competitions,

Mafu: so we're taking "promo shots" tomorrow.

Mafu: What are promo shots?

Hiiragi: He's talking about promotional photos!

Hiiragi: You don't even know that?

Shizu: Basically, they're photos of your band that everyone will see.

Hiiragi: We need to take some, too.

Mafu: You're in a band, Hiiragi?

Hiiragi: Hey, you tryin' to pick a fight?!

Hiiragi: The ones who were in the band with Yuki were Shizu and me, remember?

Mafu: I know that.

Mafu: But you don't have a guitarist now, right?

Mafu: You don't have any friends, Hiiragi.

Shizu: We have a studio guitarist playing for us right now.

Hiiragi: You little sh*t...

Mafu: Studio...

Shizu: Sort of a temporary band member who's just helping us out for now.

Shizu: He's a friend from our school's light music club.

Shizu: He knows what happened... so he's been helping us out.

Mafu: I had no idea you could do that.

Shizu: Well, the specifics... are kinda hard to explain...

Mafu: Hey, wait. Who's your vocalist?

Hiiragi: Me.

Hiiragi: I'm gonna k*ll you, you little sh*t!

Take: Damn it, you guys!

Take: Knock it off already!

Take: The next guy who can't keep a straight face owes me yen!

Aki: Please don't.

Aki: The more you tell us we can't laugh... the more I want to burst out laughing...

Take: Okay, Uenoyama, that's yen!

Take: You too, Haruki!

Haru: Hey, that shouldn't count!

Take: You can smile, but I told you, no dopey grins!

Take: Tighten those face muscles!

Take: Okay. Ready, and...

Take: Uh... What's with the vague reaction?

Take: Do they suck? Do you not like them?

Haru: No...

Haru: We're just so moved that we don't know how to react...

Mafu: You're smiling in this one, Uenoyama-kun.

Sign: Photo

Haru: We've never had anyone take our promo shots in a proper studio.

Aki: That brought your total to , yen.

Ritsu: Stop that.

Take: Huh? What about your old band?

Ritsu: I just kept using a casual photo that I miraculously got.

aki: I took one at a warehouse-type place using a self-timer.

Haru: I had someone majoring in photography take one of me in a foresty place.

Ritsu: This is so embarrassing!

Haru: Wait, you're saying that now?

Aki: Don't say this is embarrassing!

Aki: I mean...

Aki: I've been trying not to say that this whole time!

Haru: Please, don't say any more! I'm so embarrassed about that smug look on my face!

Haru: Let's stop hurting each other!

Mafu: Do amateur bands need professional promo shots, too?

Ritsu: Of course they do.

Ritsu: We need them for our social media sites and flyers.

Ritsu: They're essential for a lot of things.

Haru: More importantly, what are you two doing?

Mafu: Modern lit.

Ritsu: Studying for a test.

Haru: Please stop shoving your youth in my face!

Ritsu: Haruki-san, you're in humanities, right?

Ritsu: Help me out! I'm in a real bind.

Haru: Dude, do you not see me uploading our photos and entering us in stuff right now?

Ritsu: Well, I have no idea what this Soseki Natsume guy is talking about!

Take: Oh, Kokoro?

Mafu: How are we supposed to know what anyone born a thousand years ago was thinking?

Mafu: That's not modern at all.

Ritsu: And we already suck at this stuff since we're in the science curriculum.

mafu: Right?

Ritsu: Right?
