"In that case, don't you think you're looking in the wrong place?" "That sticker means a SUPER lot to me!" "Then don't lose it, moron!" "Oh, Ran, let's help him look for it..."

"!" "Don't you casually lay a hand on my girlfriend!" "She's not your girlfriend!" "She's going to be my girlfriend starting now!" "I saw this and it totally hit me, zappity zap!" "That's super self-cent!" "Give back the sticker and go back to Machida!" "YOU go back to Machida!" "And take over Dad's ramen shop!" "What?" "Tatsukichi, your family runs a ramen shop?" "Take over the shop!" "Take over the shop!" "Take over the shop!" "I said goodbye to Machida!" "Like hell I'm taking over the shop!" "That's awful, Bro!" "It's always the eldest son who takes over the shop!" "Hey, what's this commotion about now?" "!" "That was only true up to the 20th century!" "It's that copper again!" "What?" "!" "I said, don't call him a copper!" "I'll be back, Ran-ran!" "You don't have to come back!" "Hey, hold it right there!" "That little brat!" "How dare he make a pass at my Ran-pyon?" "!" "I was super surprised to find that Tatsukichi has a real brother." "Don't get me mixed up in your sibling fights, man." "You know, Ran-pyon, be careful, okay?" "He falls in love easily and is always hitting on girls." "Tatsukichi's kid brother, huh?" "The appearance of a new rival, it seems." "R-Rival?" "!" "It's not like that!" "Huh?" "Rival?" "What do you mean?" "What?" "!" "Uh, R-Ran..." "Are you going to start skateboarding, too?" "Huh?" "No, so like, Ran, I've always cared..." "Major yum!" "Miyu, this is seriously yummy!" "Aren't they?" "!" "Yamato complimented me on them just earlier, too!" "He's beyond hopeless." "They really are delicious!" "Say, Miyu, teach me how to make them!" "Okay." "You sure are good at cooking, Miyu." "Well, Miyu's in training as a bride-to-be, after all." "And I'm getting married after I graduate!" "What'll I do?" "!" "What'll I do?" "!"

"And matching my schedule to when Yamato comes home," "I'll make dinner and we'll eat together in perfect harmony." "And the next day, I'll match my schedule with when Yamato goes to work again..." "I get it already, so knock it off!" "...when Yamato goes to work again..." "I get it already, so knock it off!" "...and make an incredibly nutritious breakfast!" "I guess you've really given serious thought to your future." "I wonder if I should be thinking about career paths soon, too." "Thinking ahead isn't gonna make a difference." "In the end, what's important is now!" "Play all you can, as much as you can!" "After all, there's a ton of stuff you can only do while you're in high school, too." "That's so like you, Ran." "Tatsukichi, are you serious about not taking over the ramen shop?" "Yes, that's right!" "I'll decide what path to take on my own." "Oh, that's right!" "Ran-pyon, the printed sticker!" "Oh, shoot!" "I'd forgotten about it!" "Five-thousand yen!" "Five-thousand yen!" "Five-thousand yen!" "The printed sticker!" "The printed sticker!" "The printed sticker!" "Hey, it came out looking awesome!" "Let's submit this to the "Cool Couple Grand Prix."" "It's no good." "What?" "It has to be the one that Naoki has!" "Would that be referring to this?" "Hey, Naoki!" "There you are, you little monkey!" "Little monkey?" "!" "That hurts!" "Naoki, give that back!" "Don't be so impatient, Bro." "I'll give it back." "Wha?" "For real?" "In exchange, let me go on a date with Ran-ran." "A-A date?" "!" "Don't be ridiculous!" "You're 100 million years ahead of yourself if you think you can date the great Ran Kotobuki of Shibuya." "Don't say that, Ran-ran." "I'll treat you to anything you want." "What?" "!" "For real?" "!" "Unlike Bro here," "I'm raking it in because I work in the family business." "All right!" "A date it is!" "What?" "!" "Ran-pyon!" "So, little monkey, what are you going to treat me to?" "Little monkey?" "That's just not cool." "Then, what should I call you?" "You're Naoki Kuroi, so..." "Naoki, Naoki, Naokichi..." "Then how about Naokichi?" "Naokichi?" "That sounds kind of familiar, but..." "Well, I guess it's better than "little monkey"." "All right, Naokichi it is!" "Okay, Ran-ran, let's go to a movie for starters." "Hey, sounds good!" "That Naoki!" "I won't forgive you if you do anything funny!" ""Ran-ran" my ass!" "Hey, you're worried about my Ran-pyon, too, so you're going to tail them with me?" "!" "You really are a nice guy, brother!" "Ran doesn't belong to you, much less that little monkey!" "Oh, brother!" "Ran-ran, let's go see this one." "Pink Rider X?" "Man, a brat's movie, huh?" "Hey, hurry up and get your butt over here, Pink Rider X!" "Earth's facing a huge crisis!" "If we use this Z-Type bio-absorber machine to suck away the life energy of humans, we'll become immortal!" "Yeah!" "That's as far as you'll get!" "Oh?" "Who are you?" "The savior of the new century, Pink Rider X is here!" "Why you!" "Get him, you hyenas!" "Hyena!" "X Punch!" "Hyena!" "X Kick!" "Hyena!" "That's it, Pink Rider X!" "Right there!" "Go for it!" "Why did I have to pay for Tatsukichi's ticket, too?" "All right!" "Ran-ran, nice strike!" "Okay, I'll get one, too!" "Take that!" "That's super major hard." "Hey, that's the shot Tatsukichi's good at." "All right!" "Then, I can do it, too!" "I did it!" "I got the spare!" "You're awesome, Naokichi!" "What's wrong?" "Kiss, kiss, kiss me." "Kiss me plea" "Don't get carried!" "You're a million light years ahead of yourself if you think you can kiss me!" "Damn you, Naoki!" "That damn little monkey!" "After all that bowling, I'm hungry." "Then, I'll treat you to a special menu." "Special menu?" "!" "Sushi?" "!" "Steak?" "!" "All-you-can-eat pizza?" "!" "Non, non." "Something even more mega tasty." "Here, I'll take you there." "H-Hey, what's this special menu?" "It's a secret!" "Shoot!" "T-They disappeared!" "It's an illusion!" "Damn that little monkey!" "Ran's not here, either." "She's not over here, either." "What the heck kind of food is this "special menu"?" "Ran-pyon, come back!" "More like, Tatsukichi, don't you at least have some idea where your kid brother might go?" "!" "That's easy for you to say, but his top hobbies are:" "#1, skateboarding, #2, snowboarding, there is no #3 or #4, and #5 is ramen." "That's it!" "Ook?" "What the heck?" "Your "special menu" is ramen?" "Now, now, don't say that." "Try a bite." "Aw, what a waste." "You eat the roast pork first?" "It tastes better when you're hungry, you know?" "Hmm..." "I still like to eat it last." "Major yum!" "Right?" "!" "Right?" "!" "The soup here totally impressed my nose." "Chicken stock blended with dried small sardines and dried bonito, a clean soy sauce flavor!" "Just like the son of a ramen shopkeeper." "You sure know a lot." "What's the ramen like at your place?" "Dad's ramen is delicious, too, of course." "I'm studying right now to make it even better!" "Are you going to take over the ramen shop?" "Huh?" "Y-Yeah..." "I see." "It looks like Tatsukichi isn't going to, anyway." "What?" "So, Bro really is saying stuff like that." "Naokichi?" "Bingo!" "We've spotted Ran!" "Good job, my brother!" "Normally, the eldest son should take over the business!" "Bro isn't thinking about the future at all!" "Naoki!" "Bro!" "Isn't that about enough?" "Give back the sticker, like you promised." "Bro, are you serious about not taking over Dad's business?" "!" "That has nothing to do with this." "Yes, it does!" "Are you taking over Dad's business or not?" "!" "I'm not taking it over." "Bro!" "Now, give back the sticker." "My date with Ran-ran isn't over yet!" "Naoki, just leave it at that already." "Ran-ran's wasted on a good-for-nothing like you!" "I'm never letting you have Ran-ran!" "What?" "!" "Ah, that was good." "Why don't you eat, too, Tatsukichi?" "That's it, Naoki!" "We're having a showdown!" "Okay!" "I'm not losing to you!" "You may be my younger brother by blood, but Ran-pyon's the one thing I can't give up to you." "You should back off of Ran-ran." "I can be a little scary if you make me mad." "You sure you want to fight me?" "It's just what I want." "If I win, give up your claim on Ran-pyon." "And give back the sticker!" "If I win, I'm going to take over Dad's business with Ran-ran!" "Hey!" "Don't make me the bet without my permission!" "If you don't want to be humiliated, give up." "You're the one facing total humiliation!" "You'll never be able to show your face on the Odakyu Line again!" "Yuya, you're not participating in this?" "I'm gonna pass." "It looks like it's just a simple quarrel among brothers, anyway." "Round One!" "And now, we will hold the scramble for Ran Kotobuki." "A three game match with no time limit!" "Round One is a Dance Dance Gunman match!" "The rules are, you dance with the music and when the music stops, it's a quick-draw contest." "Ready?" "!" "Go!" "Take that!" "Tatsukichi wins Round One!" "Ook!" "Damn it!" "Round Two!" "A skateboard match!" "We'll call it Skateboard Go!" "The rules are simple." "Whoever reaches the goal first, wins." "Explosive energy will be the key here." "Ready?" "!" "Go!" "Ook, ook, ook, ook, ook, ook, ook!" "See ya!" "Naokichi wins!" "Yay!" "I'm not very good at skateboarding..." "More like not very smart, rather than not very good." "Round Three!" "Okay, it's tied, with one win and one loss each!" "For the final match, it's gotta be this for the Kuroi brothers!" "Ramen Match!" "Once again, the rules are simple!" "Whoever makes the ramen that I think tastes better, wins!" "All right, then!" "Ready?" "!" "This match is mine!" "If it's ramen, I've got it in the bag!" "Here we go!" "Naokichi sure is showing his experience." "Bro, you better hurry or you're going to run out of time." "Dad's put me through grueling training since before you were born." "I'm not gonna admit defeat to you yet." "Don't mind me." "You just do the best you can." "Damn it!" "I'm not losing!" "The soup to dilute the soy-based sauce will be a fish stock using dried small sardines and bonito, to which I'll blend in chicken stock taken from a whole chicken!" "The ingredients will be simple to a fault." "And with seasoning to enhance the noodles..." "Thanks for waiting!" "Mine's ready, too!" "Bro, when'd you get that done?" "!" "You better save the shock for after you taste this ultimate ramen." "Time to dig in!" "Okay, I'll go with Naokichi's first." "And now, next is Tatsukichi's..." "R-Ran-ran, which one tastes better?" "You guys aren't ramen shop brothers for nothing." "It's hard to choose between the two of them, but the one that was better by the slimmest margin was..." "The one that was better is?" "(Tatsukichi)" "Tatsukichi wins!" "Ook!" "I am champion!" "I lost?" "!" "T-That's impossible!" "There's no way the ramen I was so confident of..." "Ook!" "Ook, ook!" "Ook!" "Ook, ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "...could lose to Bro's ramen!" "Ook!" "Ook, ook!" "Ook!" "Ook, ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook, ook!" "Ook, ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "I-It's good!" "An exquisite balance of chicken and fish stock!" "The flavor hovering behind them is dried mackerel!" "Furthermore, the subtle flavor of fried onions lends the soup a sweetness!" "It's good!" "It's good!" "It's good!" "Bro, you're my enemy, but I've gotta hand it to you!" "I can't make a tasty ramen like this!" "The exquisite harmony of noodles and soup!" "So good!" "Too good!" "It's like the awesomely tasty ramen made by Chin Chin Ken, the long-established, 50-year-old ramen shop!" "I could never make something like this!" "(Chin Chin Ken Shibuya Branch)" "This is Chin Chin Ken." "What the hell, Bro?" "!" "This is ramen from Chin Chin Ken!" "Chin Chin Ken?" "Then, Tatsukichi's ramen was delivery?" "That's right, Ran-ran!" "Hey, Tatsukichi!" "Well, it's not like I know how to make ramen." "That was way cheap." "Ouch!" "You stupid bastard!" "What?" "!" "Why won't you take over Dad's ramen shop?" "!" "That has nothing to do with this!" "Did you come here for Ran?" "!" "Or did you come to lecture me?" "!" "Which is it, you brat?" "!" "Shut up!" "I don't even really know!" "Damn it!" "Damn it!" "Damn it!" "Damn it!" "Damn it!" "Why?" "Why, Bro?" "Think..." "Think more seriously about the future." "Why did you start saying you won't take over the ramen shop?" "Are you..." "Are you doing it for my sake?" "!" "You doing that for me doesn't make me happy at all!" "I'm telling you, it's not for your sake or anything." "What?" "This is the path I've decided on for myself." "Bro..." "I've known since we were kids that you wanted to take over the shop." "But, it's not like I'm giving it up or anything." "I just want to live the way I want to live." "Bro, are you serious?" "I'll decide what path to take for myself." "You stop worrying about other people and decide what path you want for yourself, too." "If you want to take over Dad's shop, do it." "Bro..." "I..." "I..." "I'm sorry I doubted you!" "I thought you... you..." "It's okay, Naoki." "I'm really sorry!" "I'm sorry, Bro!" "Don't cry anymore." "Okay, so you'll give back the sticker?" "Sure..." "I guess there were all sorts of..." "The beautiful love between brothers!" "It's so moving!" "So cheesy..." "Okay, now that we've got our reconciliation ramen..." "Cheers!" "(Chin Chin Ken Ramen)" "Tatsukichi, you eat the roast pork first, too, huh?" "It tastes better if you eat it before you get stuffed, you know?" "You're brothers all right." "I was no match for you, Bro." "I'll give up on Ran-ran." "The hunter of love will set out on a new journey!" "Cheer up, okay?" "I'm sure you'll find a new love." "Eat these and cheer up." "Zappity, zap, zap!" "Miyu-miyu!" "Lovely!" "What?" "It's settled!" "You're the one destined for me!" "Y-You gotta be kidding me!" "S-S-S-Stop it!" "So you were serious when you said he falls in love easily." "If it weren't for this, he'd be an adorable kid brother." "Noooo!" "Ran-pyon, we did it!" "We totally won the Grand Prix!" "For real?" "!" "All right!" "We got the five-thousand yen prize money!" "I was worried there for a while, since Naoki took the sticker, but it all got settled peacefully and it's happily ever after." "You said it." "But you know, it looks like it's our style not to follow in our parents' footsteps." "I guess we're kinda similar that way." "So, does that mean we're destined to be together after all?" "In that case..." "Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me!" "You dumbass, you're making me blush!" "That reminds me, what was the sticker that won the Grand Prix?" "Oh, take a look, take a look." "Oh?" "Let's see..." "T-These are awkward faces..." "Well, it was limited to "deformed face" couples." "("Hengao" = Deformed Face)" "Or rather, what kind of guy is your kid brother to fall in love with this?" "At first sight, I fired my love beam at you." "Oh, darn it, someone help me!"
