"That's the accelerator screamin', as the tires are squealing' takin 'you along, a girl I hardly knew, in my speeding' coupe." "You slammed the door, evadin' the shadows that followed sayin' "Take me anywhere, Just go!"" "An encounter is like a highway junction..." "I've fallen in love with you - that I realized by the time the seaport was in sight..." ""Take me to Summer Side"" "Sayin' that you desire tenderness over a caress..." ""Night of Summer Side"" "...the way you avoided me, using' that naive look, wasn't so innocent." ""Take me to Summer Side"" "Sayin' that you desire a caress over loneliness..." ""Night of Summer Side"" "...the way you looked into my eyes as you turned back wasn't so innocent." "A Transfer Student!" "'Tis embarrassing to say, but I'll fall in love for the first time."

"C'mere, you!" "Nice catch!" "Wh...?" "Whoa!" "Huh?" "!" "The wind stole it from me." "Thank goodness..." "I was afraid it would get blown all the way to the bottom." "And with all these steps..." "Yeah, all 99 of them." "Wow... 99 steps?" "!" "91, 92, 93, 94, 95... 96, 97, 98... 99... 100!" "No way!" "There should only be 99 steps!" "But, I counted them right." "Can't be..." "There were 99 when I counted them!" "You must've counted wrong then." "Yeah right!" "Maybe it was you who counted wrong!" "No, there really were 100." "99, I said!" "100!" "99!" "Okay, then let's make it... 99 1/2 steps!" "Huh...?" "!" "It really doesn't matter all that much, does it?" "I guess you're right about that." "You're not from around here, are you?" "Huh?" "How did you know?" "Well, you've got an accent." "D..." "Do I?" "See ya." "Oh!" "Hey!" "Your hat!" "Keep it!" "Huh?" "It looks pretty good on you." "I'm..." "Kasuga Kyosuke!" "What?" "Oh... er..." "I'll be honest..." "I really think that I like this town!" "Yahoo!" "Ta-da!" "Hmm?" ""The Kasuga Family:" "Takashi, Kyosuke, Manami  Kurumi."" "That's more like it!" "I'm home!" "Watch out, Oniichan!" ""Oniichan":" "Big Brother (affectionate)" "She dunnit!" "I know this must come as a surprise to you but, to tell you the truth..." "how should I put it my family is gifted with paranormal powers." "How many times have I told you not to use the Power?" "!" "It wasn't me!" "Kurumi did it!" "'Cause!" "How could I move a cabinet like that without using the Power?" "Look, Kurumi..." "How many times have we had to change schools?" "!" "Kurumi!" "I dunno..." "Maybe four times?" "Seven times!" "SEVEN times!" "Let's see, first there was gym class, at the start of a new semester!" ""Get set... "" ""Th..." "Three seconds?" "!"" ""Yeah!"" "You ran 100 meters in 3 seconds!" "Yup!" "We're supposed to be human beings, not motorcycles!" "Oh, that expression!" "That's a great pose!" "Good!" "Gotcha!" "Uh-huh, it's pretty nice to look at people this way." "Dad!" "How can you be so unconcerned?" "!" "Do you know what Kurumi's done?" "!" "Of course!" "Kyosuke is absolutely right." "The Power... must not be used in public!" ""Not in public," right?" "Kurumi!" "Well, if people get suspicious, we'll have to move again, and I'd rather not." "Oh?" "Does this belong to us?" "Huh?" "Is..." "Is that yours, Oniichan?" "!" "No way!" "That's some fetish!" ""Fetish?" "!" Why, you..." "Oh?" "Where's Jingoro?" "Huh?" "Huh?" "Oh!" "Look where he's gotten to!" "Oh, no!" "It's almost dinner-time!" "Stop right there!" "Ushiko..." "Umao..."

""Umao (Horse-boy)  Ushiko (Cow-girl)"" "Ushiko!" "Umao!" "That's a no-no!" "You're not supposed to go out alone." "What if you got lost out there?" "!" "Right...?" "Well...?" ""lt looks pretty good on you."" ""Nice catch!"" ""That's right..." "I've got to make something of myself here... "" "...reflected Kasuga Kyosuke at the age of 15." "Yeah, right!" "Never mind what happened yesterday just don't use you-know-what at school, got that?" "!" "Right!" "Same to you, Oniichan!" "Right..." "Yahoo!" "Yahoo!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Make it snappy!" "Awesome!" "Move it!" "Yeah!" "What the...?" "Cool!" "What skill!" "Kurumi!" "Couldn't help it... in such a situation!" "Right on!" "Right on!" "Ciao!" "What just happened?" "!" "Huh...?" "H..." "Hey!" "Whaddya mean, "Ciao!" We aren't done talkin' yet!" "What're you talking about?" "Look, I'll pick you up after school, okay?" "All right?" "You've gotta be kidding me!" "Go look in a mirror!" "Just 'cause you gave me a bit of a lift?" "You make me laugh!" "Wh..." "Wh..." "Wh..." "What didja say, you little..." "Morning, sensei!" "Such nice weather!" ""Sensei": teacher." "Good morning."

""Kasuga Kyosuke"" "How do you do!" "Well, it's hard to believe you've changed schools seven times!" "Oh!" "Well, it has to do with the business my father is in..." "Oh!" "I see a seat that isn't taken." "Huh...?" "Oh, that's Ayukawa's seat." "Bathroom break...?" "You go sit over there." "Sit down in that empty one." "Welcome!" "I'm Komatsu Seiji!"

"Oh, damn..." "Ah..." "Nosebleed: thought to happen to virgins when they get aroused." "Yuck!" "Gross!" "By the way that seat... if I recall, it's where... "Ayukawa...?"" "Oh, it's best if you stay away from her." "Talk about a major delinquent!" "Even now she's playing hooky." "Cutting class, y'know." "You gotta watch out!" "Not all girls are good ones, y'know!" "What the?" "!" "What're you doing?" "!" "Oh, I can tolerate this no longer!" "These photos are rare items!" "Quiet!" "Class is already in session!" "Geez and so, that building is the senior high, and beyond that is the college." "Basically, you can ride "up the elevator" from here all the way to the college." "A lot of the kids' families are well-to-do;" "the kids are "raised in greenhouses."" ""Raised in greenhouses": very well protected; pampered; spoiled." ""Raised in greenhouses," eh?" "Huh?" ""Jr." "High School Music"" "What're you doing?" "Let's go." "Y..." "Yeah..." "But..." "It's her." "You know, Ayukawa." "Ayukawa?" "!" "I told you it's best if you stay away from her, didn't I?" "Look at that!" "Her nickname is "Madoka the Pick."" ""Madoka the Pick?"" "Oh!" "Would you look at that?" "!" "So many against one girl..." "You've brought all your loser friends!" "Shut up!" "You've got a big mouth on you." "If you join us, then we won't treat you badly." "You've got some nerve." "Don't tell me that you want me to help you clean the riverbed?" "Cleaning...?" "!" "Hear that? "Cleaning the riverbed."" "What?" "!" "But, Kurumi went after her!" "O..." "Oh, no!" "I see." "So you're his little sister!" "I'm... your brother's..." "We're his closest friends!" "Huh?"

"Madoka..." "Are you the so-called..." ""Madoka the Pick?"" "That's right!" "And if you know that, then you know you should beat it!" "Huh?" "How about it..." "You wanna be my bitch?" "How pathetic..." "Lately it seems a lot of guys make the mistake of thinking they're cool." "Shit!" "Hikaru, stand back!" "Yeah!" "Madoka!" "Yeah, she did it!" "Super!" "At that moment..." "I probably looked totally pathetic, I'm sure like a complete loser..." "or so it seemed..." "You'll be sorry!" "Don't you dare come back!" "Stop that, Hikaru." "Huh?" "It was you... wasn't it?" "From yesterday..." "You're going to our school?" "Oh?" "I didn't know that this guy was your friend, Madoka." "I wouldn't know..." "a guy like this." "Huh...?" "Your name is Ayukawa, isn't it?" "We're in the same homeroom." "What's that got to do with anything?" "I'm not exactly a model student either but, really, I can't stand stuff like this!" "Uh-oh..." "Shhh..." "If you start to smoke at a young age you won't be able to have healthy babies!" "Ta-da!" "That showed her, eh?" "Think you're somebody special, eh?" "Are you man enough to lecture other people?" "!" "Ow!" ""Ayukawa Madoka...?"" "The girl who gave me this hat was..." ""What's that got to do with anything?"" ""Think you're somebody special, eh?"" ""Are you man enough to lecture other people?" "!"" "...it was the same girl... wasn't it...?" "I dream of casting a spell that captures your heart and makes you crazy about me." "Love is deja vu; an unfamiliar memory." "I feel our lips pressing together." "Love me... tenderly..." "Golden Summer Mirage..." "Someday..." "Someday..." "Please let my body feel your lips on that morning I'll be called your lover." "Someday, someday..." "I'll be waiting for that moment." ""There's always a drama waiting just around the corner... "" "...or so someone once said." "But in my case, that's literally what happened when I... with Hikaru, a freshman er... well ended up kissing, just around the corner." "Next time: "A Little Lemony Kiss for Her.""
