"I'm not some immature girl." "That reminds me, Miss." "That high school girl..." "What's happened since then?" "She's had Wanyuudou for a long time now, hasn't she?" "Mari!" "How about going to see a movie today?" "The French movie we were talking about seeing is showing now." "I had no idea you liked French movies." "Sorry, today's not good for me." "I see." "Then some other time." "That was news to me." "What?" "That you liked French movies and you'd even promised a girl from the next class over to go see one." "W-Well, she and I went to the same middle school and it just sort of... I absolutely hate French movies." "You stop watching them, too." "Juri..." "Or else..." "What's up with that?" "is she threatening her with the straw doll?" "Interesting!" "I wonder what happened between those two." "A very deep hatred." "Miss..." "Because they loved too strongly." "Here." "Knitted caps, right?" "Scarves, right?" "And mittens." "They all match." "I put both our names on them, Juri and Mari, so it doesn't matter who uses which." "You knit all these by yourself?" "Yeah." "For you." "With hate in my heart." "This leg of mine isn't getting any better." "We sure had fun back in our first year, didn't we?" "Playing tennis together, going on trips... lf only you hadn't broken your promise, we could've stayed that way." "I'm sorry." "How did things end up this way?" "Who is it?" "It's my mother." "What did she say?" "She's suggesting we go out to eat tonight." "It's Friday, after all." "You always eat with your family." "It's okay." "Go ahead." "Okay." "Then..." "Oh, yeah." "Here." "What?" "Memories What?" "Memories lt's an album of our history." "It's going to keep a record of how close we are." "Forever." "Maybe I should've lent her an umbrella." "If you don't betray me, I won't untie the thread." "Okay, Mari?" "Shabu-shabu Kisogawa lf you don't betray me, I won't untie the thread." "Okay, Mari?" "Shabu-shabu Kisogawa" "What's wrong, Mari?" "You haven't eaten a thing." "Are you not feeling well?" "No..." "You don't have much of an appetite these days." "It's nothing. I'm just not hungry." "Even if I told my parents about it, there's no way they'd believe me." "That I might end up being banished to Hell..." "What a downpour!" "Mari, hurry up and get in!" "Memories lt's not here!" "It's not here!" "What'll I do?" "Mari, are you going out?" "I'll be right back!" "Mari, are you going out?" "It must be at the restaurant!" "What'll I do?" "is this what you're looking for?" "Are you all right?" "Thank you very much." "It's so warm." "I don't know what the story is, but I guess that album's really important to you." "If you're comfortable talking to me, I'll listen." "What?" "It's an album my friend made for me." "It's our very own album of our history." "If you don't mind, could I take a look at it?" "What?" "You and this girl look alike." "Her name is Juri." "We became classmates in high school and we became friends right away." "Hairstyle, bags..." "Matching everything with Juri made me happy." "Morning, Juri." "Matching everything with Juri made me happy." "Morning, Mari." "Cold, isn't it?" "Even at school, we were inseparable." "And during summer camp in the woods, we snuck out to see the stars at night." "Let's be friends for life, all right?" "Yes, for life!" "As long as I had Juri, that's all I cared about." "I didn't need anything else." "That's what I used to think back then, but..." "Did something happen between you and her?" "Your expressions in the photos after this point all look like you're ready to cry." "This summer..." "Summer?" "I hurt Juri." "Are you all right?" ""Mari, how was dinner?"" ""l always tell you to e-mail me photos of what you ate, remember?"" ""You broke another promise."" "Oh, no!" ""l'm sorry."" "Was that from the Juri girl?" "It sounds like you have a lot to deal with." "She gets mad at me if I don't report back to her about everything." "She's got an awful lot of control over you, doesn't she?" "Because she holds my life in her hands..." "What?" "Have you heard of Hell Link?" "Sure, I've heard the rumors." "Juri has the ability to banish me to Hell at any time." "She can do it easily, just by untying the thread on the straw doll." "But if you banish someone to Hell, you'll also be banished to Hell after you die." "But Juri says she doesn't mind." "Aren't these nice?" "These match, too!" "I don't have one for you, though, old woman!" "Yes, yes. I understand, you little brat." "So?" "What happened between this Mari girl and her friend?" "That's the thing... 124!" "125!" "126!" "127!" "One-hundred and..." "Are you okay, Juri?" "Yeah, I'm going to do my best." "I want to be your doubles partner, after all." "Yeah!" "Fight!" "Yeah!" "Fight!" "Yeah!" "Seiku!" "Fight!" "Yeah!" "Fight!" "Yeah!" "Fight!" "Fight!" "Yeah!" "Yeah!" "Fight!" "Yeah!" "Fight!" "Fight!" "Yeah!" "Yeah!" "Fight, Juri!" "Oh, no!" "I left my towel on the court." "I'm going to go grab it." "Oh, sure." "I'll be right back." "Miss Fujimaki." "Here you are." "You forgot this." "Senpai, thank you very much." "Say, Mari, I've been meaning to talk to you about this, but..." "Yes?" "Why don't you partner up with me for doubles?" "What?" "!" "You have talent." "It would be a waste to leave you buried among the first years." "Think about it." "But I have Juri..." "You don't have to give me your answer right away." "Take your time to think it over, okay?" "All right..." "Juri!" "It hurts!" "Juri, are you all right?" "!" "Juri!" "Juri, I'm sorry." "It's okay. I'll just have you carry me along for the rest of your life." "What?" "Juri, why did you do this?" "Because she's the nasty girl who tore us apart." "I can't forget the sight of you with that senpai..." "This leg won't let me forget it." "The doctor says it's healed already, but the pain won't go away at all." "It hurts and it hurts." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry, Juri." "Take care of me like this for life, all right?" "This wouldn't have happened if you hadn't betrayed me." "The next time you betray me, I'll untie the thread on the straw doll." "It's so ironic." "The thing that's keeping them together now is the thread on the straw doll." "Grudges and jealousies can get so nasty among girls." "Could you want to stay connected with someone so badly?" "They're young." "You must remember being like that once, too." "Don't get too involved, all right?" "I know." "Oh, you can't take that off!" "Oh, man, I couldn't get any studying done for the test." "Because my leg hurt." "You know what to do, right?" "Name Mari Fujimaki" "Mari Fujimaki Juri Moriuchi lt's those girls." "The ones who're always competing for last place." "A "dumb and dumber" couple, huh?" "And Mari used to do well during our first year, too." "Really?" "Don't let it bother you." "This is fine for us." "Because we're going to the same college." "I'll go buy lunch." "Hey." "You're the one who..." "You don't seem very cheerful, but are you still being controlled by that friend of yours?" "It's fine." "Because even so, I only have Juri." "If possible, I want to go back to how we used to be." "I want to be friends with her, just like we used to be." "If possible, forever." "Really?" "I see." "Then hang in there." "I'm sure she'll see how much you care." "Mister..." "Her leg... lt's not what you think..." "What I hurt wasn't her leg. lt was her feelings!" "Juri, wait!" "Don't go!" "We're going to be together forever, right?" "!" "We must contact the family." "Mari..." "This photo was my favorite." "Juri?" "!" "Juri!" "Juri!" "Your grievance has been heard." "Why?" "There's no knowing where we'll go after we die, but this way, we can both go to Hell together." "Mari..." "Juri Mari" "We'll see each other again, right, Juri?" "Here comes your friend, too." "Juri... I consign this grievance to Hell... I'm tired of matching things!" "Really, you tire of things so easily." "Oh, honestly!" "You're making a racket!" "Baldy!" "Now, hold it right there!" "Baldy!" "Now, hold it right there!" "Those two... I hope they can get a nice picture together in Hell." "Your grievance shall be avenged." "Juri Moriuchi Your grievance shall be avenged."
