01x03 - Broken Up, and Not Rekindled

Post by bunniefuu »

Do you guys

prefer a girl like Sakurazaka?

Innocent and family-oriented.

Why do you ask this all of a sudden?

What's the thing that a girl does

that will make you happy?

It's useless to ask for my opinion.

Come on. Didn't you say

you are going to help me?

No dessert for you

unless you answer my question.

Think about it!

Fine.

What's the thing that a girl does

that will make me happy?

Bento or something similar.

Bento?

Yes!

A homemade bento, with love.

It surprises me. I think that's not bad.

Surprise.

I'm sorry.

It might work!

Come, give me a hand.

Huh?

Then I was forced to help

with Watanabe's bento plan.

What a lavish dinner!

I consider the color too.

I'm thinking of a combination

of food inspired by color too.

How does it taste?

Delicious.

But I prefer a sweet rolled omelet.

I didn't ask about your preferences.

Minami is very mature.

He wouldn't like

a rolled omelet with sugar.

Then don't ask for my opinion.

Mini hamburger patty and salad

are my masterpieces.

Also, I guess I'll need

the kitchen appliance

to make a rolled omelet.

What is that?

Is that Akari's homemade bento?

Kind of.

To be honest, you are blessed!

I'm thinking of asking god,

what has he done for me?

Come on. Things are going great

between you too.

There's no love. No love.

At first, I was nervous to eat together.

Good morning! I've been waiting for you.

It's already noon.

Good morning or good night,

it has become a routine now.

It's like logging in to collect rewards.

At least there is a reward,

isn't it great?

What is it?

Your personal relationship

is as complicated as porn manga.

I don't want to hear that from you.

Hurry up and play with that new thing

with your hot wife,

until both of you are bruised.

Don't say something risky like that.

Here it comes!

Calling the lucky event

of ending your virginity risky.

Hot girls in the harem anime

are pushing you, but you never yield.

Do you think you are the male lead?

So what exactly is it like?

Is that real? That kind of stuff.

Tell me.

No!

She only wears a little at home.

I hope someone

could praise my self-control

for living under the same roof as her.

Jiro.

Let's end the topic here.

We are having lunch.

Furthermore, things are awkward

between us whenever we are home.

What's wrong with me?

What's wrong with Watanabe?

Damn it! When did she start listening?

Hi… Hello.

No.

I'm sorry.

Are you talking

about something apologetic?

No, we are talking about Tanabe.

Well…

And? How's the bento?

It's delicious.

Come on. That's it?

Let me think…

Asparagus bacon is amazing.

Great. What else?

I still prefer a sweet rolled omelet.

I've told you,

your preferences don't matter.

What? Then don't ask for my opinion.

There must be more.

For example, the plating.

It tastes good even

if you leave it for a long time.

Or your feedback on the taste.

Didn't I share the review just now?

If you don't give me

a referential opinion, then it's useless.

I'll write a poem here.

Standing in front of me,

the lovers quarrel.

I'm not jealous. We'll see!

Kamo.

RANCHIA: WHAT SHOULD WE DO

TO BEAT THE GUY?

DON'T WORRY. TWO OF US CAN BEAT HIM.

Good morning.

Amazing.

Right?

This is the bento for Minami.

I'll bring it to his workplace later.

Finally, you're doing it.

Isn't that great?

I'm sorry.

It looks delicious, that's why…

Today's rolled omelet is my masterpiece.

Is that fine? It's for Tenjin.

This is the edge piece.

It's leftovers.

It's really not sweet.

My fake wife, Watanabe,

is making bento for Tenjin.

But Tenjin's wife, Shiori, is my crush.

It's really not sweet.

Done!

Come on, that's too fancy.

It's better than being insignificant.

Just delivering a bento,

you've spent hours dressing up.

You are meeting a guy, huh?

So revealing.

I feel that's a bit too much.

When she's going out with me,

doesn't she always dress casually?

She never dolls up like this.

Yakuin…

I will do my best.

So…

Yakuin.

Can you say "have a good day" to me?

Just like the other day.

By "have a good day," she means…

Yakuin.

No, I can't.

I'm not ready yet.

Why are you saying this now?

Didn't you say you would support me?

But you are going to meet Tenjin, right?

Is this a good idea? I…

Stupid.

I want yours.

I felt so relieved that day.

When you say things like this

with that expression,

any guy would have the expectation.

I'll get the door.

Coming.

Shiori.

So sorry for coming here all of a sudden.

Luckily both of you are home.

I'm always free.

Because you don't have many friends.

Well, here's an apple pie.

I baked too much.

Did you bake this?

You are amazing. It looks delicious.

Thanks.

Minami requested this.

It seems like Minami likes sweet food

so I baked this

according to his preference.

I hope it suits your taste too.

I see.

That's unexpected.

Lovely!

Is this a bento?

Are you going to picnic?

No. How should I put this?

You are amazing.

It looks delicious.

Going for a picnic with handmade bento?

That's great.

Delicious!

I'm full.

Cheer up!

Hey, you can find him

when he's alone at home next time. Okay?

So Minami likes sweet food.

Right, you can find out

what's his favorite food too.

What am I left with?

Sorry?

Because of your encouragement,

I thought it was going

to work via cooking.

It's my first time seeing

the strong Watanabe

in such a depressing mood.

She worked really hard.

There's nothing we can do,

but I feel like I don't know what to do.

Watanabe, you have

other good qualities too.

You are cheerful and straightforward,

can be friends with anyone,

and are popular among the guys.

Everyone says you're great!

Great, as in?

What's so great about me?

I mean…

Everything is fine if that's you.

You are pretty, you are hot,

you are fashionable, so…

So…

Should I say it's a dream

or romance of a guy?

How should I put this?

In other words,

all guys would want to have sex…

No.

That's not…

All guys would think of this.

I mean…

As a woman, you are attractive.

Isn't there a ranking

among celebrities too?

That's the one…

You too?

Me?

Watanabe and I…

Well…

I've never thought of that.

Liar.

Hey…

Have you ever thought

of doing this with me?

Hey, Yakuin.

You thought of doing this with me, right?

How many times do you think of it?

What do you think about it?

Watanabe…

Pause. Hey.

Why?

Haven't you always wanted

to do this with me?

It's okay.

Let me fulfill your dream.

It's really happening.

The hot girl does like porn manga.

Can I graduate so easily?

That's strange.

I feel super anxious.

Yakuin…

No way!

No.

This kind of stuff.

You should do it with the person you like.

The end.

Why did I stop her?

It's a great chance to graduate.

You don't want to?

No. You have Tenjin in your mind.

And you have Sakurazaka in your mind.

I see.

Watanabe.

Let's not be husband and wife.

And that's how we broke up.

How did it turn out like this?

For the Couple Practical course,

we can just deal with it casually.

Is it my fault to get carried away?

GRADE A:

MINAMI TENJIN & SHIORI SAKURAZAKA

Minami, you are amazing.

You can cook!

Shiori and I take turns cooking.

Shiori, what's wrong?

Nothing.

GRADE E: JIRO YAKUIN & AKARI WATANABE

Jiro!

That's close! Dude!

Consider the time, venue, and occasion!

What happened?

What do you mean?

The month-end evaluation.

Hey, Jiro. What happened to you?

If there is a reason, it must be you.

Enough. Just leave me alone.

What's the answer to this?

At first, I thought she was teasing me.

I thought she would mock me

when I took it seriously.

But her hands

were extremely cold and shaking.

I can sense

her nervousness and hesitation.

I guess she must be the same as me.

Everything is like a first time to her.

All guys would want to have sex…

So cold.

If that's the case,

then I'm the worst person ever.

At this point,

there's nothing to talk about.

Jiro, don't you have a handkerchief?

Shiori.

Jiro, I have a question.

Do you have time to talk to me? Alone.

Sure.

Seriously?

The breeze of wind is so nice.

Shiori, what do you want to say…

Jiro, did something happen

between you and Watanabe?

Well…

Yes.

I don't know whether it's a fight

or if we are not getting along well.

I misunderstood her

but I don't have a chance to apologize.

It seems like Watanabe

doesn't want to talk to me either.

Even if you are living together?

What?

Because you spend more time together

than anyone else in a day.

I think Watanabe will know

what you are thinking.

As for you, I'm your childhood friend

and I can assure you.

We're square.

Shiori.

I really can't beat you, can I?

Since a long time ago,

I could never beat you.

Because I'm still your childhood friend.

Right?

By the way, I didn't expect you

to know something happened.

But I guess everyone knows

after looking at the month-end evaluation.

I am envious of you.

I'm home.

HEAT WITH 600W

FOR 2 MINUTES AND 30 SECONDS

Watanabe, I want to talk to you.

Right. I don't think

you'd want to come out.

Come in.

A girly scent.

She pretends not to see me.

Well… I'm sorry.

It's fine. You are not wrong.

No.

It's my fault.

It's just me getting hyped up.

Don't make me say it out loud.

Enough. Now, erase it from your memory.

Hey.

You seem to have misunderstood me.

I'll say it.

It's not that I'm not willing to.

I'm a man.

To be honest, as you've said,

I've had many sexual fantasies.

So if I get to experience that,

I think it's very lucky of me.

Enough! Are you dumb?

Don't say it out loud! Are you dumb?

This is sexual harassment.

Talking about this

in a girl's room, that's insensitive.

That's why you can't graduate!

You're right.

But the reason why I stopped you is…

I don't know the reason either.

I feel like you should be treasured.

If we do that kind of thing

just because of the atmosphere

and excitement,

I feel like I would never get over it.

But I don't know why either.

What? What do you mean?

It's the same now.

I hate this kind of awkward relationship.

I want to talk to you

and eat with you like we used to.

Can you give me a chance?

Watanabe, I hope you…

can be my wife.

No… Not that.

I mean as in the Couple Practical course.

Of… Of course,

I know you have Tenjin in your mind.

I'm not trying to get in the way.

Well…

-Ha.

-Ha?

Help.

What's wrong? Why are you laughing?

You are working so hard!

What were you doing?

Proposing?

That's so funny.

It's because you said

to stop being husband and wife!

How is it possible to stop?

This is the school's requirement.

What?

Then why?

Are you lying?

Did you lie to me?

Why?

That's scary.

Rather than lying,

let's blame the atmosphere.

Do you know how troubled…

I think married life

is quite entertaining.

And I like Jiro very much.

What does she mean?

Why did she call my name?

And she liked me? What does she mean?

Jiro, how about you?

I…

Hand?

Just kidding. It's too bad.

Sometimes the spur

of the moment is important too, Mr. Nerd.

Watanabe.

You're home, Jiro.

I'm home.

We are not going back

to the starting point.

We are starting from zero.

And I like Jiro very much.

I said it by accident.

BURN

A burnt rolled omelet.

The troubled Akari.

Standing behind her

is Jiro with the sugar.

So it was you!

Because I think it'll be tastier.

You are going to finish it.

It's bitter.
