"Which are you?" "I'm sure he's the one who gets fucked." " Most likely." " Tell me." "That's filthy!" "Dirty." "What's the matter?" "What?" "Don't be so serious." "We're joking." " What if I've been exposed?" " It's contagious." " I can't take it." " Filthy!" "What?" "Filthy!" "If you take them seriously, you'll only lose." "Just ignore them." "Let's go." "They are telling... the truth." "Then It's OK." "I like you more than as a friend." "I like you seriously." "I see." "I am serious." "I told you I understood." "What do you want me to say?" "Well..." ""Thank you?" "I like you, too?"" "It's not like that." "Then What should I do?" "I'm leaving." "Then..." "Would you kiss me?" "Kiss you?" "Here?" "I don't want to." " Why not?" " Why not?"

"I'm not afraid of you." "If I wanted to, I could attack you." "Yes, if you wanted to, you could attack me." "But I am not attacked that easily." "You never know." "I'don't know, but... if you want to, go ahead and attack me." "You're cute." "I'm joking." "You're funny." "Thank you." "Am I weird?" " Have you had dreams recently?" " No." "Do you sleep well?" "Yes." "You're sure?" "Do you need more drugs?" "Let's keep on the same way for a while." "I'll give you your regular medicine." "Please take them." "I thought..." "I thought when I was raped... even then..." "how can I explain it?" "Even then, I found the human body warm." "So..." "The other's warmth, a warmth like that..." "I'don't trust it." "When you have sex, you consider your partner." "In a way, yes." "You have to think about pleasure." "You try to induce pleasure." "You say "Ahhh" or "Oooh" for the other." "Concentrating that way is tiring, no?" "It's a part of any human relationship, sex is." "There's no other way." "Isn't there?" "I won't report this to your father." "This conversation." "I'don't care." "Ito-kun!" "Are you cured?" "At the clinic," "What did you talk about with your doctor?" "What do you mean?" ""Ahhh..." "Oooh" You made funny noises." "Don't eavesdrop." "I couldn't help it." "By the way, in the nurse's office, you were watching me while I was sleeping." "You knew that?" " Yes." " You've got a dirty mind!" "About Yoshida-kun, did you tell him you like him?" "Tell Yoshida?" "Yes." "What did he say?" "What did he say?" "Well... boom!" "Like this." "He pushed me away." "Why?" "Because..." "I hugged him." "Suddenly?" "Not suddenly." "He said I could..." "But..." "I didn't think you'd be that brave." "You didn't think so?" "But, when I was pushed away..." "I got depressed." "I thought about becoming a "Sell Only."" "A Sell Only?"" "Selling my body to middle-aged men, and getting money." "Is it profitable?" "Sort of." "Would you say "Ahhh" or "Oooh"?" " Yeah, "Ahhh" or "Oooh"." " I bet you would." "Probably." "Say "Ahhh" or "Oooh"?" "Yeah, "Ahhh" or "Oooh"." "Excuse me." "What time do you have?" " 11:52." " Yoshida-kun." "Sorry." "I missed the bus." " Sorry." " The movie's started." "I lost my watch." "Are you OK?" "Yeah." "I'm fine." "You didn't have to come." "I'm fine." " You don't feel well, do you?" " No, I'm fine." "Sure?" "How was the movie?" "We missed the beginning." "There were more explosions." "Were there?" "A lot of people die?" "I think." "Awesome!" "I've never ridden on a gondola before." "Stop it!" "Wow!" "All couples." "It makes me puke." "I'll get some drinks." "I was surprised to see that you and Aihara-san are friends." "Were you?" "I'm not saying that Aihara-san is not my type," "But she's a little aloof, isn't she?" "I'don't know." "She seems to do everything by herself." "She gives me that impression anyway." "I envy her." "You shouldn't judge someone that easily." " I bought four." " I want one with ice cubes." "I bought one for you, too, babe." "Don't call me babe." "I'm not your girlfriend." "I always say too much." "I'don't like being like that." "You shouldn't worry so much." "I always talk too much." "Have you and Yoshida had a fight?" "No." "I wonder why Yoshida-kun is dating me." "I don't know." "But you make a good couple." "Do you think so?" "Lately, with him, I feel tension or something." "Something is not quite right." "I don't think boys have that kind of trouble." "What are you trying to say?" "Do you want to break up with Yoshida?" "Not really." "We have some problems." "You date the good student 'cause you like her, right?" "Anything wrong with that?" "No." "Shimizu is smart." "She's a good person." "Not grumpy like you." "I laugh sometimes, too!" "You should stop saying bad things about people." "Don't misunderstand me." "I like Shimizu-san very much!" "What should we do now?" "Do?" "What do you want to do?" "I don't have any particular plan." "I wonder where we'll go next..." "Should we leave you two alone?" "No." "What was that about?" "What was what about?" "You..." "It didn't mean anything." "Aihara-san, are you..." "not like us?" "You mean, am I a lesbian?" "Shimizu-san, you re too preoccupied with that stuff." "So what's going on between you two?" "Between us two?" " Are you dating Aihara?" " I'm dating her today." "What do you mean, "today"?" "We went to a movie today." " Are you making fun of me?" " What do you mean?" "Because..." "the other day, you..." "No." "I wasn't making fun of you." "Then what's going on between you two?" "Going on?" "We just went to a movie." "You'don't care about me anyway." "I'm not saying that." "It's the same as if you did say it." "What's wrong?" "You two seem to get along." "She's not my type." "Then why are you dating her?" "I'm not dating her." "I wasn t talking about Aihara." "Yoshida, I envy you..." "Sorry to keep you waiting." "Thank you for using the gondola." "The gondola is boarding passengers now." "Please proceed to the gate." "Thank you." "Look at this." "All the smiles." "Definitely summer, right?" "Well, yeah." "Do you want to visit the south?" "Not really." "Do you want to come to my hometown?" " There's a beach." " Your hometown?" "Also, I'll show you my secret fun place." "I can tell you where." "From my grandmother's, go straight." "There is an orange orchard." "Then go straight down through it." "And to this side." "you're lost, aren t you?" "There's a tiny beach." "I used to swim there when I was a kid." "You know the feeling after a swim." "You're all tired." "You're pooped." "I always slept in the orchard after swimming." "Then, how can I explain it... sourness?" "The sour smell expands." "Paaaah." "And my body... toasty, toasty, toasty." " Warm?" " Not warm." "Toasty, toasty." "And the sky and the earth seem to change places." " Topsy-turvy." " Exactly." "Topsy-turvy." "Turning around." "And I feel, "Wow." "Wow"." "Then..." "I'd go like this in the field." "I'd lie down." "Then, I'd march." "Oops." "Wrong combination." "I'd march furiously." " Alone?" " Yes." "But, I felt as though I were flying." "Like this." "Very hard." " I walked like this." " But you were flying." " Great." " If you lie there, you can fly." "Got you." "You're home!" "Surprise." "You came home early today." " Have you eaten?" " Yes, with a friend." "This..." "This?" " you made it." " What is this?" "It looks like Niku-yaga." "I know what it is." "Did your mother come?" " Mother?" " She did laundry, too." "Does she have a spare key?" "I don't know." "She may still be your mother, but I have no business with her any more." "Why does she do these things now?" "I don't know." "Do you see your mother?" "No, I don't." "If you want to, you can go to her place." "I don't." "You know, don't you," "because of her debt, how much trouble I have to go through." "If you were a real man, you'd understand me." "Why Niku-yaga?" "Hello." "Ito residence." "Yes." "Fine." "The usual place?" "Sure." "Yeah, I got it." "I'm on my way." "What?" "No, no." "Sure." "I'm going out." "Why is Ito-kun absent today?" "I'don't know." "OK." " Have you seen my bag?" " No." "What kind of a bag?" "A cloth bag." "The one you used for collecting money?" " What was it for?" " It's best you don't know." "Shimizu- san." "Have you seen my bag?" "I haven t. you lost it?" " That's why I asked you." " You looked all over?" "Yes." "It shouldn't be lost." "But I lost it." "How much did you lose?" "What's the matter?" " That's none of your business." " Butt out!" "You'don't know?" " I really Don't know." " Fine, fine." " What's happened?" " Shut up." "Have you seen my bag?" "No, I haven't." "Are you sure?" "What kind of bag?" " A cloth bag." " Like a gym bag?" "No." "A different kind." "Aihara-san!" "Have you seen my bag?" " Your bag?" " Don't pretend to be innocent." "Whatta you mean?" "I know, I know you wanted money." "You stole it." "Give it back." "Give it to me." "Search it yourself." "Where else?" "Did you hide it somewhere?" "Give it back." "Give it back!" "Where else?" "I know you stole it." "Give it back." " That's enough." " Why did you stop her?" " She shouldn't..." " Why not?" " You, stop." " She might have my bag." "I'm checking." "Don't do that." "Why not?" "Why did you protect Aihara-san?" "Oh, I get it." "I know, I know." " Do you like Aihara-san?" " What are you talking about?" " Am I right?" " Don't talk nonsense." "Anyway, I lost my bag." "you stole it." "What?" "What's that?" "Because... you said we should collect from the other class." "I'm sorry." "I found my bag." "Sorry." "Apologize to her properly." "You shouldn't put cans in there." "What's this?" "It's for you." "I won't tell." "Don't scare me." "Sorry." "Is something wrong with Yoshida?" "Why?" "Nothing's wrong." "I just asked." "Since when did you smoke?" "Me?" "When was it..." "Maybe 15." " Can I have one?" " Do you smoke?" "I never smoke." "You shouldn't start." " Just a puff." "Can I?" " Are you OK?" "I told you." "Are you OK?" "Are you OK?" "No way should girls smoke." "Don't worry." "I'm just hopeless." "Why?" "I'm hopeless." "Don't worry about it." "Listen." "I've been thinking about this for a while." "In comic books, people breathe on their fists before they strike." "Why?" "Why?" "Don't ask me that." "I've just been wondering." "It's been keeping me awake nights." "You'don't have to try to make jokes." "I like you the way you are." " Thanks." " For what?" "Look." "Look over there." "Where?" " It's like an earthquake." " Right." "Great." " Three, two, one..." " We're too early." "Three, two..." "What?" "Keep it." "I don't want." "I don't need your money." "That's it." "Hey, Wait." "I gave it to you." " Fuck this." " Keep it." " No." " Keep it." "Do you like Ito?" "Are you dense?" "Ito-kun likes you." "I can't fall in love with men like he does." "What do you mean?" "Unlike him, I'm normal." "What's that shit?" "What are you doing?" "Are you OK?" "Why are you..." "You're fucking asshole!" "Summer vacation starts tomorrow." "Aihara-san isn't feeling well." "She's been absent for 3 days." "She's starting vacation a bit early." "I hope she'll come back healthy in September." "Don't worry." "Before I give you your report cards." "This..." "Matsuo-san. isn't this yours?" "Remain seated." "There was about ¥60,000 inside." "Mr. Kawasaki, the student Affairs Teacher, wants to know what is this for." "Please go to the teacher's lounge later." "I'll pass out the report cards now." "I'don't like that sound." "Aoyama-kun." "Abiko-san." "You did great." "Ando-kun." "Ito-kun." "Hello." "Ito residence." "Aihara?" "Where are you?" "In your hometown?" "Who?" "Yoshida?" "No, nobody said anything." "What happened?" "No reason." "I can't go to the concert." "I feel guilty." "That's all." "I'll call you later." "Bye." "Yeah." "Later." "Hey, kid!" "Lunchtime." "Wait for me, Noriko." "Been a while since we ve been here." " True." "Mom, fireworks!" " Right!" "Give me the flowers." "I'm glad you came." "No seniors showed up." "Thanks." "Let s go." "Put this around your arm." "Yoshida!" "Long time, no see." " You still playing with a band." " Yeah." " Is your band competing?" " No." "This year we're just helping." " You go to No.3 High, right?" " You're at No.3?" " Really?" " Do you know a girl named Aihara?" "No, I don't think so." "I heard she was transferred to your school." " What about her?" " She was raped." " That's only a rumor." " No, It's true." "Police came to our school." "You really didn t know?" "Two students were expelled." " Really?" " Seriously." "I didn t hear that." "What are you doing?" "We ve got to go." "See you later." "Has anyone gone to get the next band?" "I don't know." "Where is Yoshida-kun?" " I'll go get the next band." " Thank you." "5 minutes 'till you're on." "Please go backstage." " OK." " Thank you." "You know." "What?" "Where Aihara is?" "Yes, I do." "Where is she?" "Why do you ask?" "Do you want to see her?" "What will you do when you see her?" "What will you do when you see her?" "Forget it." "Why don't you just say you want to see her?" "If you want to, come with me." "Where are you going?" "Ito!" "What are you doing?" "Wait for me!" "What's this place?" "can't you tell?" "Do you really know where Aihara is?" "You don't trust me?" "Look for her by yourself, then." "Why did you come here?" " L..." " Why did you come here?" "Let me talk." "Talk, then." "I want to apologize for the other night." "Then apologize." "I'm sorry." "That's fine." "If you've finished, you'd better go home." "There aren't that many trains here." "I'm truly sorry." "The train's that way." "Turn right at the corner." "I'm sorry for everything." "Stop following me." "Sorry." "I see." "I understand." "I'm truly sorry." "Stop pretending to be kind." "What did you think you were doing?" "Are you enjoying this?" "Why did you act like a meddling old lady?" "I'didn t." "Then why?" "Yoshida..." "Yoshida what?" "Yoshida..." "I wanted to see how Yoshida falls in love." "Why are skirts so floppy?" "Ask the guy who invented them." "All right." "Aihara!" "L..." "I like you." "Why do you like me?" "There's no reason why." "Would you still like me if I were a man?" "What the hell you are talking about?" "Answer me." "Would you like me if I were a man?" "I might like you, but it would be a different kind of feeling." "How different?" "I seriously like you." "Not as a friend." "I love you." "Ito-kun likes you seriously, too." "He's a man." "So what?" "Is being a man bad?" "I can't sleep with a man." "How about with a woman?" "Yes, I can." "With me?" "Yes." "Even if I were a man?" "This is nonsense." "Yoshida-kun." "You don't like me." "you like me because I am a woman." "You were born a woman." "You just want to fuck." "No!" "No." "I like you." "Why the hell are you wearing that?" "What the fuck are you doing?" "What is this?" "Stop it." "Are you two making fun of me?" " That's unfair." " Ito!" "You only think about yourself." "What do you mean?" "You're not fair." "You only say you want to say... because... you're unfair." "I..." "I don't know what to do." "Aihara, I..." "Go ahead." "Do what?" "Do it." "Do whatever you want to do." "Do what?" "Ito-kun is going to drown!" "He could die!" "Ito." "Hey!" "Ito." "Ito." "Ito." "Ito." "See." "You can do it." "Screenplay and Directed by Ryousuke Hashiguchi"
