01x06 - First Buddy

[bunniefuu]

Chisa, I beg you. Stay by my side.

No.

I'm not asking anything else of you.

Just stay by my side.

No way. Give up already.

No

I only want you to sit next to me

and let me see your answers!

-Sorry, I couldn't get her to help us cheat.

-I see.

What are we going to do? We're going to fail.

I don't want to fail German.

Nothing we can do.

We'll have to help ourselves.

Are you serious?

You're going to start studying now?

There's no time before the test.

I'm going to see how small I can photocopy my notes.

You're going to help yourself cheat.

This is the smallest that I can still read.

It's pretty small.

We have to think of where to hide it.

Kitahara! Cheating, huh?

Let me in on it!

Me too! Me too!

Why do I always attract such losers?

Birds of a feather flock together.

So how will we conceal it?

Well

For example, in my pencil box.

METHOD 1: A PENCIL BOX

Under my drink label.

METHOD 2: A DRINK LABEL

Inside my towel.

METHOD 3: A TOWEL

How about you, Nojima?

I'm going to do a "wannai"!

One night? You're going to pull an all-nighter?

No. I'll put it in my arm!

-What are you going to do, Kitahara?

-I'm going to put it on the back of my fan.

I'll hide it in my clothes.

You guys know it's important to pass German, right?

-Yeah!

-Of course!

We're not giving up!

We're all going to pass together!

Yeah!

Okay. Well then

First, put away your pencil boxes.

Idiot. You should've seen that coming.

Hey! Help me!

I don't know

And no eating or drinking.

Don't look at me like that!

Do something!

How come everyone else looks so calm?

Do they have confidence in themselves?

The test starts at 1:00.

You can leave if you finish early.

Begin.

I'm leaving.

I see. They already made their decision.

The letters smudged from my sweat! I can't read it!

Idiot.

It's because you used your arm when it's so hot.

Shimokawa isn't here.

Yeah. Just now, he

I'LL START STUDYING NOW.

TELL ME WHAT'S ON TOMORROW'S TEST.

NO NEED TO KNOW ANYMORE.

Just now?

Don't worry about it.

One more person died. That's all.

But

My cheat sheet isn't helping at all.

We have to help each other.

It's teamwork time.

Leave it to me.

What's this?

I thought we were helping each other!

FAIL

Everyone's doing poorly on the test.

The questions are too hard.

It can't be helped. I'll give you a freebie.

Really?

I covered this in class.

Translate what I'm about to say into German

and write it on the back.

Question 1:

"Rheumatoid arthritis."

How should I know?

Someone, tell him what "freebie" means!

Question 2:

"A man holding a banana while naked."

What was he talking about in class?

Is this really a German class?

The last question.

"James Thomas."

A name?

And it's obviously English!

I can't deal with this anymore!

This is terrible.

We definitely failed.

We have to make up for this somehow.

Everyone, you all did very poorly.

So if you get over 10 points, you pass,

and if you get over 20, you get an A.

Seriously?

Great! I didn't think we'd do it!

Right? That saved us!

Yeah. Definitely!

A retake?

No!

They're acting stupid again.

Be passionate, my friends

Shine bright with the sun

Dive into the blue sky

And let summer take it all

GRAND BLUE DREAMING

Be passionate, my friends

Shine bright with the sun

Dive into the blue sky

And let summer take it all

An expanding ocean of possibilities

Summer is our amore

We'll swear to the crystal clear sky

Summer is in our hands

Be passionate, my friends

Shine bright with the sun

Dive into the blue sky

And let summer take it all

With a cheerful heart

Don't mess with me

Keep going even if you fall

And let summer take it all

So how was the mixer?

It was terrible Look at this photo.

-They came dressed in costumes.

-We went all out! You should be grateful.

You guys never disappoint.

By the way, you said you wanted to join our club.

Do you know what club this is?

Diving, right?

I wanted to try it out.

It's such a grown-up hobby.

I'm interested in what's in the ocean and in colorful fish.

Great.

Going diving with college friends on a tropical island!

It's like a drama on TV!

Then you shouldn't join this club.

Isn't this is a diving club?

Just kidding.

It's not that we never dive,

but I feel like we never dive.

Hey, new member!

Your welcome party is starting!

Okay!

Well, introduce yourself.

I'm Aina Yoshiwara, a freshman from OWU!

I'm interested in diving,

but I've never tried it before.

Starting now, I want to learn lots and--

Isn't this club weird?

You took your clothes off!

Don't be so surprised.

You already got a good look

at the Izu Spring Festival.

So you weren't just letting loose after the festival?

What's wrong, Aina?

Everything's wrong!

It's nothing.

But at least Kotegawa is supposed to be normal.

Please, Kotegawa! You're the only one

who can set up a mixer!

No, Chisa. I didn't mean I want you to sit on top of me.

-Did you want me to step on you?

-Or not

What are you two doing?

Nothing.

Nanaka.

Hey, Chisa-chan. Get off of Iori.

Great! I'm glad there's someone normal here!

Thank you.

Nanaka, how about a drink?

Thanks. Okay.

I'll have this.

Kotegawa was drinking that

Hey

Don't ask.

You didn't see anything. Got that?

Hey, you guys!

You have to give a toast!

Hold on--

Yoshiwara

Yes?

Are you interested in diving?

Yeah. I guess.

-Why?

-No

It's nothing

I was just glad.

Right.

You're the only person who joined

because you were interested.

So, what equipment do I need to get for diving?

Well

There's a lot.

Just renting is fine in the beginning.

For starters, a towel and swimsuit.

A swimsuit?

You don't like swimsuits?

It's not that I don't like them.

It's just embarrassing

You'll be fine!

There's nothing embarrassing about it.

That's because you are all used to diving.

For normal people--

Yeah! Yeah!

There's no one normal here!

Are you okay?

Anyway, today is my welcome party!

So, everyone, put your clothes on!

What's wrong?

We're out of booze.

Not even one bottle left?

I estimated wrong.

No way. You're a veteran.

Then I'll go buy some.

It's going to be heavy. We'll go.

It's okay, the store's really close.

Then I'll go too.

I'm going now!

Okay!

Make sure you put on your clothes.

Okay.

She better get used to this soon.

Yeah.

Though, you two got used to this way too soon.

Hey, who bought the bamboo shoots

instead of the mushrooms?

What are you talking about?

The bamboo shoots are better.

You're kidding me.

Bamboo shoots are for people with no sense of taste.

No, no!

Mushrooms are for people with bad taste!

Hey! What did you just say?

You can't even tell the difference

between a cr*cker and a cookie!

Haven't you ever compared their sales?

You b*stard! This means w*r!

Want to fight?

Hey, wait. Stop fighting!

-But!

-But!

I thought I already told you,

you should solve things with a game.

All right.

What should we play?

Well

Let's use a Ghost Leg.

Tokki, Bukki, think of some games.

Okay. Have you picked one?

Yeah.

And the result is

The Pocky game.

-What in the world?

-What in the world?

Hold on!

Who's idea was this?

Azusa!

This is your chance.

You guys settle this with a Pocky game!

No, no, no!

This is wrong!

There's nothing wrong!

It's the result of the sacred Ghost Leg. Just accept it.

We don't have any Pocky.

So we can't play.

You're right.

Then let's use this.

It's kind of big, but it'll work.

The first person who takes their mouth off loses.

Ready, set, go!

This looks worse than I imagined.

We can't let Chii-chan and Aina see this.

There's no winner.

A tie? Too bad.

This is impossible.

It's k*lling my mouth.

Too bad.

Azusa, what's your idea?

I thought I'd get some Pocky.

Azusa says buy some Pocky.

Pocky?

Sweets? That's weird.

IORI AND KOHEI WANT TO PLAY THE POCKY GAME

What happened while we've been gone?

You guys are enjoying this, aren't you?

Why don't you guys participate too?

Well

I'm okay with that.

I don't mind.

How are we going to choose who plays who?

Well

With Rock, Paper, Scissors or something.

I see!

That means

All right! I get it!

We're back.

We bought--

Out! Safe! Yeah!

Welcome back!

Why do you always end up like this?

Wait, Cakey! There's a good reason!

We were just playing Rock, Paper, Scissors

to decide who plays the Pocky game!

You don't have to strip

to play Rock, Paper, Scissors!

-This is naked Rock, Paper, Scissors. We have to strip.

-That's right.

Learn how to play Rock, Paper, Scissors

without stripping!

In other words, like normal?

This is normal.

Anyway

We got more new members,

so it's time to get ready for the license class.

You're right.

License?

For who can strip fastest?

It's for who drinks fastest.

Why do you think that?

It's for diving, of course.

-Diving?

-Diving?

No way!

Is it our fault they're acting like that?

I think it's half-half.

I have to ask you

You looked at the textbook, right?

Of course.

No need to ask.

They haven't looked at it.

Let's give them a quiz.

Do you guys know the hand signals?

-Yes.

-They're gestures, right?

They're important signals

for communicating underwater.

I'm going to do them right now.

Watch, and think about what I'm trying to say.

Stop.

Look this way.

I'm going to dive.

In other words

Stop right there.

I'm

going to k*ll you.

Okay, Iori. What are you supposed to do next?

I'm going to sh**t him first with an underwater g*n.

What's going on?

We can't use hand signals with Iori.

It's Kohei's turn next.

You'll see how much better I am than Kitahara.

Keep your mouth shut, dimwit.

A problem has occurred.

"Yahoo"?

No more air.

"Aiin"?

I'm going to go up.

"Yeah, yeah."

How was it, Kohei?

I'm going to watch over you!

What a bizarre idea.

You didn't study after all.

-Sorry.

-Sorry.

Well, I already knew that.

Anyway

Try studying a bit.

Now?

Something good might happen once you memorize it.

Iori, are you studying for your license?

Yes. Just the hand signals, though.

Let me see.

This feels like

You should memorize these first.

Good things really do happen.

Hand signals are wonderful!

Oh, by the way, Iori

Yes?

I heard something just now.

Know anything about it?

What do you mean?

I heard that you're going out with Chisa-chan.

Oh, the signals are coming in handy!

That signal means "a problem has occurred."

Yeah. It's an important signal.

What's wrong?

Azusa, it's an emergency.

Nanaka heard about it.

Can you do anything to help?

Okay, leave it to me.

You're the best, Azusa!

I can always count on you!

What are you going to do?

Don't worry about it.

I'm just going to tell her

who you really like.

Well, I do really love Chisa!

You like digging your own grave.

Iori

That one means "come here."

Iori is learning them by using them.

Don't let him beat you, Kohei.

Nanaka, just now, that was--

Good!

It seemed like you guys weren't getting along recently,

so I was worried.

But if that's what you say, everything's fine.

Nanaka, are you okay with this?

What?

You know Chii-chan and Iori are?

It's a good thing, right?

They get along so well

that they look like they're going out.

What a convenient interpretation.

What if they really were going out?

I'm not really sure.

Right?

-Azusa's question makes no sense!

-No

No, that's not it.

I mean I'm not really sure what I'd do.

I might get k*lled someday.

Don't worry!

That would never happen!

Right. They haven't been getting along recently.

Since I'm her older sister, I can't just ignore it.

Then let's do this for tomorrow's practice.

Okay. We're going to have you dive in pairs today.

What? This is awkward.

Let's change into swimsuits first.

Let's change.

You're changing here?

Why do you care now?

That's not what I'm talking about.

What are you two doing?

We're changing.

In front of other people?

Kotegawa, say something!

We have swimsuits on already.

It's no big deal.

That's right.

Yours looks like underwear.

Blushing because of your bathing suit?

So innocent.

Yup.

You guys could act a little more innocent, you know.

I've had enough of these people!

Nanaka

What, Iori?

Why is Chisa paired up with me?

I wanted you guys to make up.

It'll have the opposite effect.

It'll be okay.

Chii-chan is easy when she's in the ocean.

Right.

If she heard that, she'd be mad.

Okay, Iori, don't get far away from me.

Okay.

What's wrong, Iori?

Are you nervous?

No

We're just going to swim somewhere shallow today.

If you're scared, don't push yourself.

Tell me if anything's wrong.

Okay. Got it.

Okay, I can do it.

This isn't the time for jokes

Chisa's not mad.

Instead, she's

Oh, right.

She's just being serious.

To make sure an accident doesn't happen.

So that we can enjoy

being underwater.

For me, since I'm scared of the water.

That was really fun!

It looks like you enjoyed it.

Yes!

Good.

Did you have fun, Iori?

Yeah. Of course.

Good.

-They made up.

-Yeah.

Everything's okay now.

Well, still, you really are Nanaka's little sister.

What?

I knew it when I saw you from behind.

You have a spectacular a*s.

Die twenty thousand times!

DEEP BLUE AL FINE

KAYA MIZUKI

Here's your mic, Kitahara.

Me, too? All right, let's do this!

-Yeah, sing your heart out.

-You guys seem to be having fun.

A fairytale whispers

In a fake world

Hiding in the complete darkness

I reach for the forbidden fruit

In my last days

Now I know the meaning of the song about hope

A broken gear will never stop again

Even if I were to lose everything

I'd still want you to know

Trapped in the sky so far away

I'm praying with ripped off wings

Because we span together

The vows of areppegio

If life sparkles only to the beat

of the resonating stars

I'll sacrifice everything

Till death do us apart

Cheers!

Thank you!

-We're going to have a tennis doubles match!

-Hold on!

-You're not dressed as a girl this time.

-It's come to this.

We have no choice.

A knockout!
