"Each girl is born to meet her own destined one." "take Aihara Kotoko... to be your lawfully wedded wife?" "I do." "Kotoko." "Yes?" "I love you." "Irie-kun. gosh." "My imagination ran wild there." "no misspellings!" "It's perfect!" "I don't want it." "He didn't even accept the letter." "She confessed to the Irie-kun?" "Aihara-san did that?" "It seems that she was rejected instantly." "it was in front of everyone." "You serious?" "That must be so embarrassing!" "Isn't Aihara-san in Class-F?" "She sure has guts confessing to someone from Class-A like Irie-kun." "It's more like she just doesn't know her place." "You sure said it." "Leave me alone already!" "she got upset." "You're all so cruel!" "Kotoko!" "What a reckless thing you did!" "what if there was just a slight chance that he liked me...?" "that's impossible." "Kotoko." "That's right." "For someone like me who was placed in the bottom class to be with the guy from the top of the top class..." "I fell in love with him." "the greeting speech for the freshmen." "Thinking back to two years ago..." "The guy who's about to give his speech is supposed to be really smart." "right?" "you mean he's the number one genius in Japan?" "Number one genius in Japan?" "Something like this?" "Irie Naoki." "Yes." "So cool..." "My name is Irie Naoki from Class-A." "the sake of the new students..." "Amazing." "He was able to deliver his complicated speech so smoothly." "I fell in love with Irie-kun at first sight." "Kotoko." "Morning." "What are you up to?" "Class is about to start." "But..." "Let's go." "the class where all the smart people gather." "also known as the leftover class." "I studied desperately with the single goal to be in the same class with Irie-kun." "F... huh?" "I stayed in Class-F." "my high school life will end without him ever knowing my feelings!" "I don't want that to happen!" "Here he comes." "Irie-kun!" "Please... please accept..." "I don't want it." "there." "it's true that Irie-kun is pretty good looking but he has some problems as a human." "Exactly." "He doesn't seem interested in girls at all even though he's already seventeen." "There are plenty of more normal guys out there." "Kotoko!" "Is it true that you confessed to Irie-kun?" "You like that damn nerd?" "!" "While you still have me too..." "Isn't that too much?" "Kin-chan." "What's with those cold words?" "Haven't we sat next to each other in class for two years?" "I'll never forgive that Irie bastard for rejecting Kotoko!" "You don't have to yell" "Shut up!" "It's like he's openly challenging me!" "That's what I'm saying!" "calm down for now." "You idiot!" "I'm plenty calm!" "I don't care if he's a genius or whatever." "He's just so full of himself!" "Who does he think he is?" "!" "That's enough." "I wasn't thinking things through." "but..." "Kotoko... he can't be a very nice person since he didn't even read the letter." "I suppose." "I sure have bad taste when it comes to men." "I'm fine now." "I'm going to give up." "What are you all doing?" "Class is starting." "Get to your seats." "I'm going to take attendance." "Aihara." "Here." "That's right." "Aso." "I'm giving up on that cold-hearted bastard." "I guess I had admired him." "1000)}My poor letter." "Kotoko?" "Yep." "how nice." "Let's all go to her place next time." "That sounds nice." "don't." "You guys will definitely laugh." "It's an authentic Japanese style house in this present day and all." "Kotoko?" "I was hoping for a more trendy house." "Kotoko." "I'll build one for you." "there's only Kotoko and her father in her household it sounds like it's going to be quite a problem when she marries." "For real?" "I could marry into your family." "Quit talking to yourself already." "that's the girl from this morning." "Let's go." "Irie!" "that brat!" "that's reality." "Kotoko." "Hold it right there!" "Kin-san!" "Don't think you can act like that just because you're in Class-A!" "Kin-chan!" "didn't you?" "please stop!" "Do you even have blood running through your veins?" "!" "That's enough!" "Please stop!" "I hate stupid girls." "Let's go." "You bastard!" "You think that people from Class-F aren't even human?" "That's too cruel." "How could he say such a thing to me?" "I can't believe it!" "Calm down!" "Don't let him provoke you!" "Damn it!" "Just let me get one swing at him!" "Let me go!" "it was the right choice to give up on him!" "I feel so vexed." "500)}To think that I was in love with him for two years." "New houses are so nice!" "Houses are defined by the smell of Japanese cypress." "Kotoko?" "Kotoko... can even build a house if we work together." "how's the new house?" "ain't it?" "doesn't the house make creaking sounds every now and then?" "Don't be silly!" "This house is well-built!" "your husband will be living..." "No way." "I'm not going to get a son-in-law for you." "Are you saying that you're going to leave your one and only father after marrying?" "How can you be such a cold-hearted daughter- guests?" "Who could it be at such an hour?" "Kotoko!" "Coming!" "Hello!" "We've come for a house warming." "Guys." "You all really came." "if it isn't Jinko-chan and Satomi-chan?" "Come on in!" "Oji-san." "I'm coming in." "Here." "thanks." "Let's let ourselves in too then." "All right!" "That was delicious." "I'm so full." "how 'bout another glass?" "I think I've had enough for today." "Kin-chan came here to help console you because of what happened today." "hasn't he?" "Jinko?" "Don't you think this juice is slanted?" "Huh?" "What do you mean?" "Do you mean to say the house is slanted?" "How could that be?" "Exactly." "Kotoko?" "Don't speak that name ever again!" "Just remembering it pisses me off." "making a fool out of me!" "He's really pissed!" "Damn it!" "Hey!" "Damn it!" "Kin-chan!" "Damn it!" "Kinnosuke!" "Don't break the house!" "Dad?" "What's that?" "I didn't do anything." "no!" "This seems like a big one!" "we have to get outta here!" "Don't worry!" "This house is well-built!" "What are you doing?" "Hurry!" "hurry!" "What is it?" "I have to grab Mom!" "Kotoko?" "Hurry!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Dad?" "Dad!" "It's dangerous." "Please stand back." "Dad... please stand back." "Dad!" "answer if you can hear me!" "it's dangerous to move around here." "Please let us handle it." "Quit interfering!" "We're talking about Kotoko's father here!" "Who's going to save him?" "Huh?" "!" "Calm down." "Please stay composed." "Dad!" "Answer me!" "Dad!" "Hey!" "Dad?" "Hey!" "I'm coming." "Where are you?" "Are you down there?" "so I can't move." "Thank goodness." "I'm going to save you now." "is there a survivor?" "All right!" "Don't talk to me!" "Don't distract me!" "Dad!" "Hi!" "You're all right." "Please come out quick." "I was protected by her." "Dad!" "I'm so glad!" "Watch out!" "Hey!" "The survivor has been safely rescued." "Thank goodness!" "this is really something else." "wasn't it?" "Could it be that only our house collapsed?" "looks like it." "No way... there was an earthquake in the middle of the Kanto area." "The quake in Tokyo measured at level 2." "the family from the Suginami District..." "Did you see the news?" "I did." "A house collapsing from a mere level-2 quake?" "It's Aihara-san!" "And she just got rejected by Irie-kun yesterday." "What a disaster for her." "huh?" "Yeah." "Poor thing." "huh?" "I'm sorry." "I'm causing trouble for you guys too." "it certainly was quite extraordinary." "have you decided where you two are gonna be staying?" "We might be staying over at my father's friend's place." "I guess we can't possibly stay in the hotel forever." "I see." "It must be hard." "Sorry!" "You're totally a celebrity now." "That doesn't make me happy at all." "we kindly ask for your cooperation." "Kin-chan?" "What is he doing?" "Disaster fundraiser of love?" "whose house was lost in the earthquake." "What the...?" "She lost her house in the quake last night." "We're now conducting the fundraiser of love for Aihara Kotoko-chan of Class 3-F." "Kin-chan!" "What are you doing?" "!" "Stop!" "It's embarrassing!" "Here she is right now!" "she's still cheerfully attending school." "Doesn't it bring you to tears?" "Come on!" "Stop!" "We can't do that." "I'm atoning for my sins." "If I hadn't headbutted the beam..." "That totally has nothing to do with it." "Sure it does!" "I'm doing this because of you." "Hey." "Would you let me through?" "Irie-kun!" "You!" "Whose fault do you think it is that Kotoko is now in such terrible pain?" "right?" "Shut up!" "It's because you said those nasty things to Kotoko!" "That was the catalyst behind the many disasters that Kotoko suffered!" "You're saying that I caused the quake?" "That's right!" "that's enough!" "Please stop!" "Fine." "right?" "Here." "Don't make a fool out of me!" "It was a total waste having feelings for someone like you these past two years!" "I don't want your blessing even if it kills me!" "Are you sure it's okay to say something like that?" "Of course it is!" "There's no reason for me to be taken care of by you!" "Don't treat me like a fool just because I'm stupid!" "500)}What the?" "You're not supposed to laugh!" "Who would have thought that the central pillar would be destroyed by termites." "That's because you skimped on the materials." "I didn't skimp!" "I was cheated!" "is it really okay?" "we'll be imposing if we freeload at his place." "You don't have to worry about him." "He's the one who invited us." "and he called me when he saw the news." "is what he said." "Sounds like a nice person." "Iri-chan really is a nice guy." "Iri-chan?" "he got all excited after I told him about you." "About me?" "here!" "Please stop!" "Iri-chan's son is the same age as you." "What an incredible mansion!" "it seems that he attends the same school as you." "Irie?" "What are you doing?" "Hurry up!" "It looks like we have his son's consent as well too." "can it?" "Kotoko?" "It can't be." "Something as ridiculous as that couldn't possibly happen." "Ai-chan!" "Iri-chan!" "Welcome!" "Come on in." "Iri-chan." "What are you saying?" "Don't be so distant." "It's strange for you to be so hesitant." "He doesn't look anything like Irie-kun." "That's right." "It's just a coincidence." "so this is Kotoko-chan?" "Nice to meet you." "Welcome." "Nao." "Kotoko-chan and her father are here!" "Nao?" "Welcome." "Nice to meet you." "I'm Aihara." "Naoki." "Nice to meet you." "No way!" "What should I do?" "don't you think?" "I'm filled with awe." "I'm surprised." "You're far more prettier in person than in the photos." "Photos?" "Welcome!" "Kotoko-chan." "We've been waiting." "just like I said." "at school... so I did it without thinking." "it must have been difficult." "come on in." "Then I'll make myself at home." "Kotoko." "say something." "I'm coming in." "don't you?" "Yeah." "Our classrooms are rather far apart." "a lot of things happened lately." "Kotoko-san?" "I'm so delighted." "It's gonna be really fun from today onwards!" "and also..." "Yuuki." "Come here and greet them." "Kotoko-oneechan." "Is he the younger brother?" "Yes." "Nice to meet you." "I'm Irie Yuuki." "I'm in the third year of elementary school." "What an intelligent looking young man." "He looks just like Irie-kun." "Miniature version." "Yuuki-kun." "I'm doing my homework right now... can you please teach me how to read these kanji?" "Sure." "193)}Squid (Crow + Thief) 131)}Dolphin (Sea + Pig)" "147)}Blowfish (River + Pig)" "Let me see..." "Did we learn this in elementary school?" "perhaps?" "How about the second one?" "River-pig?" "And the third one?" "Bird thief..." "The fourth one?" "Pot-cow?" "squid and snail." "You're seventeen and you can't even read this." "Are you retarded?" "that's terribly rude!" "Apologize!" "No!" "Dumbass!" "I hate you!" "Yuuki!" "Kotoko-chan." "Sorry." "That boy is too much." "I got rejected by both brothers..." "Kotoko-chan." "Let me show you to your room." "I put my heart into preparing it." "Okay." "Step in." "This is it." "do you like it?" "Yes." "It's really cute." "I always wanted a girl." "I had always longed for something like this." "This used to be Yuuki's room." "and now it's so cramped." "don't say such things!" "Kotoko-chan." "Okay... okay?" "I have to prepare dinner." "Kotoko-chan." "what shall I help you with?" "It's okay." "I can do it myself." "that's right." "right?" "Whether you're here or not is none of my business." "Please don't cramp my lifestyle." "I sure came to a horrible place perhaps..." "This is so awkward." "don't tell anyone that we're living together." "Wha-?" "What is it?" "I've told you before." "I hate stupid girls." "I'm so vexed!" "I'm going to ace the upcoming midterms!" "I'll show you that I can get into Year-3's top fifty." "I'm going to triumph over Irie Naoki!" "Next time on Itazura na Kiss:" "Dangerous Cohabitation." "I'm definitely going to be happy."
