I can hear his heartbeat.
The heat of his body
makes me feel dizzy.
The heat of Kakeru's body
is melting onto mine.
Are they really all asleep?
No way.
That's no fun at all.
He's gone, you know.
Whoa, I didn't even notice.
You guys are so close
you even share a blanket.
No, you're wrong, we're not at all...
Right?
I'll go buy some water.
Okay.
Give me a break...
The atmosphere here is incredible.
And the bags under your eyes are insane.
I had too many things on my mind
last night and didn't sleep at all.
Kakeru, you'll get ketchup on your sleeve.
That was close!
Is he your dad?
No way.
I'll eat now.
This spaghetti is so good.
Where are you two going today?
To Arashiyama.
There's supposed to be
a lot of delicious places there.
All you care about is food, huh.
That's not true, I'm excited
for the beautiful bamboo bush too.
-It's a bamboo "grove."
-Huh?
It's good that you two are close,
but this way neither of you
will ever get a girlfriend.
That's all you ever think about, Fujino.
Which is why...
Come with me, okay?
Okay? You will, right?
Seriously?
Hurry up, let's go. Eat up.
Why do we have to wait here?
Seriously...
What's wrong? Do you feel sick?
No. I'm fine.
Are you sure?
You've got ketchup on your face.
I'll remove it myself, thanks.
Of course. Sorry.
I'm glad the weather is so nice today.
Anyway, what is Fujino doing?
What's taking him so long?
I wonder
what went through
Kakeru's head in that moment.
Oh, I almost forgot.
Here.
LOVE KNOT CHARM
They say that if you
go on a school trip here,
and someone you like
accepts one of these charms from you,
then your love will come true.
Is this...?
Kurosawa told me to give it to you.
Thank God I remembered it.
Yamato?
Why are you giving me
a charm from someone else?
Huh? Well, I mean...
She asked me to.
Give it back. I don't want it.
Wait! Why are you getting mad?
I said I don't want it.
Then give it back to her yourself.
Why do I need to get yelled at?
Do you always do what people ask?
Can't you think for yourself?
Huh?
What gives you
the right to talk like that to me?
I'm...
Kakeru! Ohara!
-Hiya!
-Hiya!
What's going on?
Kakeru...
Akane.
One moment.
We were talking earlier
about letting Akane and Kakeru
be just the two of them.
-Huh?
-They're hitting it off, you know.
Sorry to ruin your plans for the day.
You're wearing your hair different today.
Kaho did it. Do you like it?
Yeah, it looks nice.
Thanks.
Yamato, go around with us today.
It's been ages
since we've hung out with you.
Kyoto will be much
more fun to see with the girls!
But I promised Yamato...
Okay.
What?
I'll go with the others.
Oh! Yay!
What about Togetsukyo?
-We promised...
-It's fine.
I don't need to go that bad.
What?
Well, then we'll be off.
Kakeru and Akane, you two have fun.
Huh?
Let's go that way.
-Okay, let's go.
-Well then.
-Yamato, do you want a bite?
-Have a bite.
No thanks.
As expected!
-Look at this picture.
-Show me!
STRAWBERRY STAND
I hope it goes well with Akane and Kakeru.
-Yeah.
-Of course it will.
Ohara, where do you want to go now?
Ohara?
This area is really pretty.
Kakeru?
Kakeru!
Sorry, I spaced out.
I'm sorry things got awkward like this.
No, I'm the one who's sorry.
You came all the way to Kyoto,
but now you're stuck with me.
No, not at all.
But you made plans with Yamato,
didn't you?
Don't worry about it.
Yamato said it was fine.
Okay.
Anyways, is there anywhere
you want to go now we're here?
I wonder if right now
Yamato and Kakeru are
drinking matcha tea together.
I don't need to go that bad.
What?
LOVE KNOT CHARM
Ohara! What a coincidence.
No need to run away from us!
We're friends, you know.
Let go of me.
Huh? Where's Ashiya?
Why are you by yourself?
Thank you for waiting.
A Tenryuji Parfait and Kyoto Black Roll.
I-It's so cute.
Right? It's so cute.
And yummy, too.
I'm glad you like sweets.
Yamato and I often go eat sweets together.
I would've never guessed.
I would've expected him to
not like sweet things.
He doesn't, but he always
accompanies me anyways.
That's nice of him.
Yeah.
He suddenly cancelled on you?
I guess.
Though, it's a good chance for him.
I can't take that away from him.
What chance?
For him to explore with
the girl he might start dating soon.
It's normal for him to pick her over me.
Normal?
Normal according to who?
I mean, that's how it is.
I'm just a friend.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
What is your plan for today?
-I wanted to go take pictures.
-Pictures of what?
The bamboo grove and Togetsukyo bridge.
If I take some,
I can show them to Kakeru later.
So noble.
Why do you want to show him so much?
I just
really liked those places
ever since I was little.
The wide, blue skies.
The sound of the river.
You know...
I wanted to show Kakeru
a place that means something to me.
Does he know?
Did you tell him this?
No. I don't need to tell him.
Where do you want to go now?
Um...
Oh! I have a guidebook.
Kakeru.
Are you having fun?
Huh?
I am. Why do you ask?
It's just ever since we split with the
others, you've been lost in thought.
Sorry, I'm just tired, that's all.
I'm fine.
Let's figure out where to go next.
Huh? This is Yamato's book.
What...
I'm going to go now.
Are you trying
to act like a tragic heroine?
What?
All you just said now,
about what's normal
and what does and doesn't need to be said.
Could it be you're thinking
that as long as you endure,
the other one can be happy?
Is that it?
What?
You're just torturing yourself.
Who are you to lecture me?
It's none of your business,
so don't act like you understand it all.
Then tell me
how well you understand Ashiya.
Don't you think
he wants to know how you feel?
You're just assuming
you know how he feels.
You sure I'm the one
acting like I've got it all figured out?
There's no way
I can tell him how I feel.
If honesty breaks you apart,
you weren't even
real friends to begin with.
Ohara, where are you going?
Leave him be.
KAKERU WOULD LIKE THIS PLACE
THE VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE IS BEAUTIFUL
I WANT TO SHOW THIS TO KAKERU
Kakeru...
You're always thinking about something.
Huh?
Though I don't know
what that "something" is.
Does it really not matter to you?
THE VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE IS BEAUTIFUL
I WANT TO SHOW THIS TO KAKERU
Akane. I'm sorry.
There's a place I need to be right now.
Okay. It's fine.
I'm really sorry.
Kakeru!
If you're going to Arashiyama,
you should take the Hankyu train
from Kawaramachi Station.
Thanks, Akane.
See you!
It finished before it even began.
Whenever I'm with Kakeru,
I somehow always felt sad.
I cannot tell how I feel
to the one who's most important to me.
But still
I don't regret it.
I'm sure this is for the better.
LOVE KNOT CHARM
We have to go there!
It's a promise.
LOVE KNOT CHARM
Why isn't he picking up?
What?
Where are you?
Do you know where Yamato is?
He's not picking up his phone.
He said he was going to
the bamboo grove and to Togetsukyo.
Huh? To Togetsukyo?
Ashiya, run!
Run to him.
Why didn't I see it?
I don't need to go that bad.
No...
Why did I pretend not to see?
That look on his face was sadness.
TOGETSUKYO BRIDGE
I know that being by his side
only brings me pain.
But...
I can't help but want to be close to him.
All I did
was love him.
Why does it hurt so much?
Yamato!
Kakeru.
Why are you here?
What about her?
I made you a promise.
That's all that matters.
Yamato?
Wait? What?
I love you.
Huh?
Ever since we were kids.
All this time.
Yamato...
I know I shouldn't say it.
I know that, but...
Huh? Yamato?
Yamato!
Hey, Yamato.
Hey!
LOVE KNOT CHARM
I'm cutting ties with you!
Don't you understand
how I feel all the time?
Living by other people's
standards sucks, right?
My chest hurts.
I'm flooded with emotions I can't contain.
I just want to get closer to his heart.
