"Is it already that late?" "Yeah." "Hurry up or you'll fall behind!" "Wait!" "The town Haruta and I grew up in together was surrounded by mountains and the calm seas." "Summers were very hot, and the winters very cold" "Wait wait wait!" "You're so slow, Kanna!" "Our school was completely normal." "We were 15 years old." "[School Entrance Ceremony]" "You can call me Haruta." "Nice name!" "Excuse me~ I'm from Sakurahorooka middle school." "Are you alright?" "Sorry!" "My hand slipped." "That hurt." "Be more careful." "The hell?" "!" "Haruta!" "Stop it!" "Stop!" "What are you doing?" "!" "Maya!" "Maya!" "I said stop!" "We're done." "Maya!" "I don't really understand the way boys work." "Somehow, after that, they became friends." "So fast~" "Cross your eyes!" "Hey, hey!" "Hey, are you dating Haruta, Seto-san?" "We're just old friends." "What about Mayama?" "Are you dating Mayama, Asami?" "We just went to the same middle school." "But you four are always together!" "Because.. we're friends." "Well.. that's good, then." "Right?" "Right!" "Maybe I'll try and date Haruta, then." "Try it!" "It'll be fine!" "Those two are pretty popular." "I.. don't really like it." "Maybe I'm just too worrying too much." "But if one of them starts getting close to someone else, the 4 of us might not be able to hang out together anymore." "Oh.. yeah, that could happen." "Oh, did you know?" "Apparently they're both working." "What for?" "They said they want motorbikes." "Motorbikes?" "Nobody told me that." "They probably want to surprise you!" "I see." "It's been so long!" "It has!" "How's school?" "I'm playing basketball." "I'm playing basketball." "That sounds nice!" "Well, see you later." "Yeah." "Take care!" "Later." "Later." "Bye!" "Hey!" "Why are you getting in?"

"Um.." "Go on!" "Go on!" "Invite her!" "Invite her!" "Hurry!" "Is it.. just you two?" "No way, dummy!" "Flirting isn't how a loser like you becomes an adult!" "That's not.. they told me to do it!" "Yeah, yeah, shut your trap." "Anyway, why aren't you wearing Yukata?" "[light kimono for summer]" "Look at all these wonderful girls!" "They're a pain to put on and hard to walk in~" "I'm not buying you any goldfish~" "Goldfish catching?" "Let's do it!" "Not without Yukata!" "Maybe I should have worn one.." "Asami DOES have a girly side." "Close." "Try again?" "So close!" "You grazed it, right?" "Grazing it isn't winning it." "What should we eat next?" "I wonder.. shaved ice!" "This thing is fun." "They're got ring toss!" "Oh, they do." "They're got ring toss!" "You wanna go?" "There's Karaage!" "It looks good.." "let's get some!" "Let's decide after we look around some more." "Such a kid." "Want to share a chocolate banana?" "Dammit, where'd they run off to?" "There's no ducks around." "Probably sleeping." "Maya, is there anyone you like?" "Huh?" "What kind of transition was that?" "Well.. you're popular, Maya." "I'm hardly popular." "You're the popular one." "Me?" "Guys don't like me!" "You're blind." "You don't know yourself." "Next week, just the two of us, let's go to see the fireworks." "Kanna!" "What have you been doing?" "We were looking for you!" "Sorry~~" "Why's your phone turned off?" "Is it?" "Is it?" "Let's share a chocolate banana." "Let's share a chocolate banana." "Oh, it is." "Are we going back to the festival?" "Yeah, let's go." "Listen" "This is a girl's bedroom, you know." "Could you stop coming in without saying anything?" "Then you should lock it." "You could send a text." "Do that." "A text?" "Too much effort." "Really?" "I drew these!" "I found them when I was cleaning up." "Brings you back, doesn't it?" "Want to autograph them?" "Don't be silly!" "Hey!" "It's fine!" "It's not fine at all, erase it!" "Is that going to be on the test?" "Don't change the subject." "We were told we should memorize this part." "Good night." "When was the first time?" "We more or less kissed in celebration when we got into high school but.. he never said he liked me, or asked me out." "[Masterpiece]" "At least write it in Kanji." "It was more like a kiss between stray cats." "That's.. kind of what it felt like." "Ahhhh~ It's over!" "~" "Haruta, show me yours." "No way!" "Why not?" "Show me!" "I taught you so it should be fine!" "I taught you so it should be fine!" "I don't want to!" "Give it up and show me!" "Give it up and show me!" "So insistent!" "Good!" "This one!" "Asami!"

"You'll get your license first." "First?" "Your birthday is before Maya's." "Yeah." "What're you gonna get me?" "I haven't thought about that yet." "Seriously?" "It's fine!" "You'll get a lot of gifts from other girls, anyway." "That has nothing to do with it." "After I get it, I'm going to give a ride to the girl I like the most." "I'm scared of them." "Who said it's you?" "There will be no kiss between cats today." "Thank you very much!" "I kinda got asked out." "Really?" "You going to do it?" "Probably." "You're finally going to graduate from loserdom!" "Shut it!" "People like you who were popular to start with wouldn't understand what it's like feeling lost at sea." ""Lost at sea"?"

"Hey, could you guys do the night shift as well?" "I can work until close~" "Me too." "I have plans." "That so?" "Well, I'm counting on you." "Hello?" "Can you make it today?" "What about Haruta and Asami?" "Do we have to have them along our whole lives?" "Well, I'll be waiting." "Wow, we can see them from here!" "Lucky!" "That's only half of it." "That's enough!" "Oh well." "Hey" "What about that conversation earlier?" "The girl you like.. it's Kanna-chan, right?" "Did I ask something I shouldn't have?" "Haruta?" "They're pretty, aren't they?" "Good work!" "Bye, then!" "They were so big and pretty!" "Fireworks sure are nice." "We were close to them." "It looked like they could fall on us!" "Yeah, it really did." "I like you." "Since we first met," "I've liked you." "Maya.." "[Message sent]" "How's Haruta?" "No way.." "He was riding his bike." "And fiddling with his phone." "The truck driver said he couldn't avoid him."

"There!" "Men are pretty useless at times like that." "Right?" "Hey, Master.. isn't it awful?" "I'm in charge of cockroaches!" "Yeah.. but, see" "I'm afraid of cockroaches, too." "Though, I think that being able to eat and talk about cockroaches makes you a formidable character." "But.. this is not a cockroach, right?" "Master, there's some fallen over." "Don't worry about him." "He's always like that when he's drunk." "Yeah!" "You, girl over there!" "The Master's Neapolitan is good, isn't it?" "Isn't it?" "!" "Be careful." "Guys like that get really wrapped up in you." "Gdoo evening [slurring]" "I'm sorry, I'm drunk." "What's your name?" "Mine?" "Yes, mine!" "[wrong pronoun]" "We" "Akazawa-kun!"

"If you're going to throw up, over here, over here, the toilet!" "Okay, okay, okay!" "What is it?" "Oh, uh.." "I'm Seto from Melonworks." "Where's Yamada-san?" "Resigned." "Something about a chronic condition getting worse." "I'll be taking over." "I'm Akazawa, transferred in this month." "Nice to meet you." "Please, come and have a look some time." "Looks boring." "It's not boring!" "It is interesting!" "Exactly what part of it?" "Uh.. well.." "I haven't actually watched it." "The previous works have been popular, though." "Someone who hasn't seen it is doing the advertising?" "The poor thing." "I'm sorry." "I will come back." "Uhh..." "Seto-san?" "The Master's Neapolitan is good, isn't it?" "Yes, it's exquisite." "I knew you remembered." "I'm sorry for yesterday." "I worked there when I was a student." "Would you like to start over?" "If you like, your friend can come, too." "Your type is.. my friend and not me, huh." "Ah, sorry." "You must be the popular one." "That is not at all what I'm saying!" "Excuse me." "She.. really seems to hate me." "He gave off a really bad vibe." "This is unusual!" "What is?" "This is the first time you've been so angry." "Normally you'd just ignore him." "I'm not like that." "You are." "Ever since university, you've knocked down boys around you like dominos." "This and that are two different things." "But I hit the bull's eye." "That's.." "I do think it was wrong of him to criticize my job." "Interesting~" "I'm a little interested." "Maybe I'll see him again." "That.. what was his name?" "This is read as "Roku"." "It's a name dogs often have." "Roku..chan?" "Are you.." "Sekiya?" "Yeah!" "Haven't you gotten a little too big?" "You, too.. you've grown a little too far sideways." "Shut up!" "It's trendy these days!" "Anyway, when was it you moved?" "It was pretty sudden." "It was grade 2." "After the accident, I was hospitalized for about half a year, right?" "My dad's transfer was finalized somewhere in there." "Sorry." "Don't sweat it, it doesn't bother me anymore." "Do you take the bus, too?" "Me?" "I come by bike." "Ah!" "I forgot my bike!" "H-hold on!" "Roku-chan?" "I heard you came back!" "Around the neighborhood." "You've gotten so big!" "Hold on.. uh.." "Sorry!" "I'm.." "I'm Kakinouchi Manami, Nozomi's older sister." "This is Nozomi's diary." "I'd like you to read it." "Oh yeah!" "How about coming to visit?" "I'd love my parents to see you recovered!" "I'm sure Nozomi would like that, too." "So.." "I'll be waiting for you!" "What's with that girl?" "[Kakinouchi Nozomi]" "He's right.. it might be boring." "The hell is this?" "Please, take your time." "My name is Yanagihara." "Mine is Uchida." "If you're finished with reception, this way please." "Seto-san?" "Can I borrow you?" "Yes." "Excuse me." "Seto-san!" "Coming!" "It's still pretty early." "Want to eat before heading back?" "Seto." "Oh." "Sorry." "How about Ramen?" "You won't be able to marry with that little charm!" "I've got no one to marry, anyway." "Then, how about me?" "What?" "I didn't hear you." "Something's wrong with my ears.." "You're playing off a confession from your boss, aren't you?" "That's quite the face." "Seto Kanna-sama," "I shared a drink with Momoka-san." "The girl you introduced me to before." "We hit it off quite perfectly." "Akazawa-sama," "I saw the wonderful picture message." "I hope you continue building a good connection." "How would you like to come with next time?" "I could." "I may decide I want to do that if the chance arises." "By the way, thank you very much for attending the event the other day." "It seems you were accompanied by a cute girl, so I refrained from calling out to you." "Is it possible you're concerned about she and I?" "What?" "No, not in the slightest." "I'm sorry." "You're a pretty unpleasant woman." "By the way, it seems one of Director Kuroyama's old works is being shown." "Would you like to go?" "I'm not going!" "I think I'll go home." "Seto-san!" "Didn't I say to meet on that side, not in front?" "But.. if we're going to Itsutsugi Hall, this way should" "No, it's that way." "I'm pretty sure it's this way!" "Fine, let's bet on it." "Loser buys." "Alright, let's go the way you want to go." "H-hey!" "We sure did take a detour." "But we made it right on time, so it's fine." "Sorry." "For what?" "Oh, about the girl you saw before.." "Who?" "The girl at the event." "She's a manga artist I used to manage." "I said I'm not concerned." "She's a veteran of the industry now." "But she's always been interested in m" "Like I said," "I'm not concerned at all." "Oh, right." "Thanks for coming today." "Hey, so" "I invited you today because I wanted to apologize." "My first impression of you was that you were temperamental, and that you were trying to get me to flirt with you." "I misunderstood you." "Momo-chan got pretty mad at me when we went out." ""She's not like that"" "I have misread women in the past," "So.. maybe we could make a toast with that in mind?" ""With that in mind"?" "I mean" "Uh.." "I'm sorry!" "Me, too." "Cheers!" "You're from Higashiyama?" "Really?" "Our hometowns are pretty close." "Where's yours?" "Mine's Sakae!" "Really?" "!" "Somehow, you're giving a totally different vibe from when we first met." "I don't think there's a person who could be mad after eating food that good." "I suddenly remember something from high school." "High school?" "She looked like she was about to cry." "Then she ate an Onigiri and suddenly turned all smiles." "After Onigiri?" "Is this a memory of your girlfriend?" "No." "Someone I had a slightly special relation with." "I think it's probably a good memory, but it's a little bitter, too." "Something like that." "I'm not sure I get it or not." "So, how about your memories?" "They're.." "I won't share them." "They're mine." "Anyway, about the movie just now" "Oh, hey." "What do you like about Director Kuroyama?" "Mm.. his smile?" "That's not what I mean!" "Sorry!" "What?" "When I was out drinking with Roku.. somehow, I thought it might be fine." "So I told him about Haruta." "I'm sorry!" "It's fine." "That was already 8 years ago." "It's not really something to hide." "Really?" "Yeah." "Really truly?" "Yeah." "... Really?" "You're asking too much." "Thank goodness~" "It's nothing special." "There's not enough balloons!" "Hurry!" "We're working on it!" "Whatever he knows, I'm still going to be me." "For him.. whatever my past is, it doesn't really.." "Tie!" "Tie!" "[settling rock paper scissors]" "That was.." "perhaps him leaving his comfort zone." "Momoka told me everything." "Ah.. right." "I was basically doing research about you." "Sorry for that." "But, even if I didn't know about your past," "I still would have invited you out." "It'd have turned out the same." "I feel like I was tricked, so that doesn't satisfy me." "I see.. sorry." "But since we're at this point, today you tell me one of your secrets." "Back in elementary school, there was a girl who was always following me around." "During a field trip, she was extremely annoying." "Roku-chan~~" "Roku-chan, I made this for you." "Have some!" "Hey, Roku-chan!" "Don't touch me!" "Look what he did." "What are you even doing?" "Here." "Thanks." "Look out!" "She died instantly." "I came back." "I've had problems with my pinky since then, though." "I didn't.. tell you to tell me a secret that large." "Sorry, sorry!" "It was a lie." "Actually, that itself is a lie." "Do you remember much about her?" "That's.." "Oh." "This is her sister's child." "I haven't met her, but her name is Mutsumi." "She looks a little similar." "To the girl who died?" "Yeah." "So.. this is kind of like a charm to me." "Would you have told me?" "If Momoka hadn't told you anything." "I'm not sure.. why?" "If only one thing changed, you may have said something else." "As more things change, so does the future." "Yeah." "That's true." "That is a face full of guilt." "But you can't help it." "You can't change who you are." "You were never able to really fall in love with him, so you have some regrets." "If it had at least gone a way where you could, you'd be living a different future." "Even if the result were the same, the way you feel now might not be so heavy." "Akazawa-san, I did think you were someone I didn't like." "But you REEEAAAAALLY are someone I can't stand." "Bathroom." "Good evening." "Roku-san!" "Kiyo!" "Long time no see!" "Yeah!" "Are.. are you okay?" "Seto-san!" "Seto-san?" "Kanna-chan?" "!" "This is Kanna-chan!" "What?" "Forget that, call an ambulance!" "Ah, yes!" "Seto-san?" "Seto!" "Hey, are you alright?" "Seto!" "Seto!" "I'm aware." "I know the way I feel." "I know it, but that's the first time I've ever heard it from somebody else." "Seto-san doesn't seem to be bothered." "She didn't cry at the funeral, right?" "She seems so cold." "Seto-san!" "If you're free, help us with this." "Ah, okay." "Crap, sorry!" "Are you alright?" "Who's.. blood is this?" "What are you talking about?" "Haruta.." "Is it Haruta's?" "I.." "killed him!" "I killed him!" "Why does he understand my feelings?" "You woke up!" "She's awake!" "Kiyo..masa.. kun?" "Yes!" "Exactly!" "It's me!" "Long time no see, Kanna-chan!" "He's my kouhai from university!" "It's such a coincidence." "Um.." "Are you alright?" "Does anything hurt?" "You collapsed so suddenly, it surprised me." "Even the Master" "Hey!" "What is it?" "I can't hear you." "I will come back." "Please take care." "The last time I saw her was in the third year of highschool." "She suddenly got a hold of me to ask to see pictures of Haruta." "It seems like she threw all the ones she had away after the accident." "She spent a long time looking at the photo albums, but in the end she didn't even take a single one." "Are you by chance interested in her?" "Oh, did you like her as well?" "Roku-san, seriously." "Are you interested in her?" "I am interested." "Are you confident you can win her over?" "No." "You didn't even have to think?" "You didn't even have to think?" "I don't have what I don't have." "What is it?" "It's.." "Even Haruta." "That night" "That's harsh." "Have you told her that?" "No." "Don't!" "Ever!" "Okay." "Roku-chan?" "Thanks for coming!" "Come in!" "Mooom!" "Roku-chan is here!" "Here you go." "Really, thank you for coming." "You've gotten so big." "I'm happy for you." "Roku-chan, his name is Roku as well." "Nozomi really loved him." "He's pretty old now, though." "And how are you now?" "No problems?" "Just this." "I see." "Just your pinky?" "Lucky for you." "Oh, if you can, you should eat with us today." "I can't impose." "Here." "Did you read it?" "No." "Your body" "Take care of it." "Roku-chan!" "Roku-chan, wait!" "Hey, Roku-chan!" "I don't think your parents wanted to see me." "What are you talking about?" "You're the one Nozomi cared for!" "Everyone's happy to see you grown up!" "What exactly do you want me to do after all this time?" "Do I have to think about her for my entire life?" "Could I please have you read this?" "I'd like to go with you to Tazawako after you've read it." "What?" "April 8th" "New class!" "I've found someone interesting!" "His name is Roku-chan." "The same as our dog!" "April 9th" "Today, I spoke to Roku-chan for the first time." "I told him his name is the same as my dog's, and for some reason he got mad." "July 3rd" "Painting party." "I lent him some blue paint, but he didn't use it." "I wonder why?" "He painted the sky dark." "Tanabata [July 7th]" "Roku-chan cut his hair." "August 3rd" "I didn't see Roku-chan today, either." "It'd be fine if there was no summer vacation." "October 1st" "I was playing with my unicycle." "Roku-chan was playing a flute with all his might, and he passed right by me." "October 2nd" "I'm looking forward to tomorrow's field trip." "We're going to Tazawako." "I wonder if Roku-chan is excited, too?" "How trivial." "I don't remember any of this." "No, stay how you were." "They said it'll be about a week for your hearing?" "Since I heard you'll be living in silence," "Here." "Some manga by the artist I told you about." "They're seriously fun to read." "I'm sorry." "I still can't really hear you." "It's cute." "They say the source is stress.. is it my fault?" "The redhead dies in the 7th volume." "Amenbo akaina a i u e o [a phrase from a poem used to practice articulation] [a phrase from a poem used to practice articulation]" "It's fine." "It's not your fault." "Rest well." "Mucchan, what do you want for dinner today?" "Hamburg?" "An omelette?" "Curry?" "Muccha~~~n!" "Sakuraba Mutsumi-chan!" "Hey, Mucchan!" "Who am I?" "Okay!" "Today, we have curry!" "Okay!" "Yes, we'll go with that." "Please do!" "Okay, excuse me!" "Here you go." "Thank you!" "You're still recovering, so take it easy." "Then take care of some things for me!" "I should." "I was just saying it, though." "I thought so." "Akazawa-sama" "I have been discharged without a hitch." "In thanks for causing you some trouble, I will treat you" "I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble." "I can't do it!" "I just can't do it anymore!" "I made it this far because it was with you!" "I'm not in charge of you anymore." "I don't have any say." "We also have to consider your current manager." "Then you don't have to help." "How about being a friend?" "A friend that listens to me and reads my storyboards." "That's what I can't do." "Tell me!" "Tell me!" "Heyyy!" "Tell me!" "I'll be leaving first!" "Good work today!" "Good work!" "[You have no new E-mails]" "Welcome!" "Good evening." "Sorry about the other day." "It's fine, no problem." "Who's that?" "Seto-san." "We've been working together." "This is Nohara-sensei." "The manga artist." "Nice to meet you!" "I'm Seto from Melonworks." "Seto-san, huh." "I'm Nohara." "I read your manga." "It was very interesting!" "Thank you." "Master, I'll have a beer." "Are you sure?" "Yeah." "You can't drink while in recovery." "Are you?" "You should just go home." "It's fine." "I'm already working like it never happened." "Before that, I've been worried!" "You should have told me you were discharged." "I sent one to your work E-mail." "Send it to my phone!" "I gave you my number." "Thank you!" "Excuse me, this is a work call." "Okay." "Are you on your way home from work?" "No, this isn't work related." "Is that so?" "Yeah." "Akazawa-kun is always so nice to everybody." "A lot of people get the wrong idea." "I'm not really misunderstanding anything." "Sorry about that." "Sensei, shall we get going?" "I don't want to!" "It's too early!" "You have work tomorrow, don't you?" "You have work tomorrow, don't you?" "Then please see me home." "Sorry, can I have the bill?" "Already?" "It's on me today to celebrate your discharge." "Thank you." "Excuse me." "Are you okay?" "Sorry." "Seto-san!" "What are you doing?" "You shouldn't leave her alone back there." "So frustrating!" "I'm going home." "Dammit, I can't leave you alone." "Where are we going?" "I'm seeing you home." "I'm not letting you in." "I'm not coming in." "Um.. your hand." "You'll fall again." "But.." "I'm sitting." "Thank you very much." "Well." "Good night." "Go ahead." "Thanks for coming." "I happened to be free." "I'm happy anyway." "Let's go." "Thank you." "So, hey.." "My family seemed dark, didn't it?" "It's because we lost our sun." "Your sun?" "Yeah." "Nozomi was our sun." "When she died, the grief my parents went through was.. intense." "I tried to brighten the mood on my own, but all I got was" ""What are you laughing and smiling about?"" ""Are you not hurt by losing your sister?"" "They were pretty mad." "It blindsided me." "Turns out I can't stand in her place." "For us, it's like time has stopped." ""I have to change things"" ""I have to try and change things", I thought" "And then that's when I heard you'd come back." "It felt like I'd heard Nozomi's call." "I'm suddenly hungry!" "I brought some Onigiri!" "Let's eat it!" "Now?" "Yeah!" "Here!" "It's huge!" "And rock hard!" "It's fine, don't complain!" "It's delicious, the best!" "It's good." "Right?" "Hey.." "Is that little thing a dog?" "It must be lost." "I'm going to go have a look." "Hold on!" "It's fine, it's fine." "Wait here." "Huh?" "Hey!" "Hey!" "HEY!" "Hey!" "Are you alright?" "Kakinouchi?" "Kakinouchi.." "Kakinouchi!" "Kakinouchi!" "Kakinouchi!" "I'm sorry!" "Kakinouchi.." "Kakinouchi.." "I'm sorry.." "It hurts." "Roku-chan." "Is it.." "okay for me to be alive?" "What are you saying?" "I.. don't want to be the reason you die, too." "It wasn't your fault." "You're dumb." "The rain stopped." "It's a bit late for that." "What are we even doing?" "Seriously." "Eating Onigiri and and falling down hills in the mountains." "What ARE we doing?" "Seriously, this hurts." "Don't make me laugh, it hurts!" "Once again, I couldn't get to Tazawako." "Yeah." "But I think you found her." "Nozomi." "Is there.. anything that I can do?" "There is." "Roku-chan, you need to follow your path." "Thank you for last night." "Was Nohara-sensei okay after that?" "[Caught a cold." "Resting at home.]" "Who is?" "Nohara-sensei?" "Akazawa-san?" "[39 or 40 degrees." "Head.. dizzy]" "Yeah, who?" "[39 or 40 degrees."

"How do you clear up guilt?" "Why are you asking that?" "Oh, because I can act like nothing ever happened." "Sorry." "That's not.." "Let me just say it." "Something like that doesn't go away." "It sticks with you for life." "I'm sorry it's not the answer you hoped for." "Listen." "As a test.." "Why don't we try going out?" "A test?" "What I mean is if it doesn't work then it just doesn't work." "Well, give it some thought." ""if it doesn't work, then it just doesn't work".." "Can I send a text?" "To who?" "Akazawa-kun." "I think he's sleeping." "He said to let him know when you drop by no matter when it is." "That's creepy." "So." "I'll tell him you think he's creepy." ""tha.. tha.. tha"" ""tha".." "Ah.." "It turned into "the"." "I couldn't text when I was younger." "For some reason, I'm still not sure how even now." "That's not what I mean!" "Something happened in my first year of high school, and I couldn't text anymore." "But in university, Momoka got mad at me for being difficult to get a hold of, so I had to get over it." "How was it to do it after so long?" "It was.. you know." "It wasn't scary at all." "It was totally fine." "But.." "I was a little scared it would become "fine"." "I think." "I don't get it, but is a Neapolitan okay?" "Yeah." "Thanks!" "Let's make some tea." "Hello~ Roku-chan?" "Yeah." "Thanks for the picture." "What was it, a recital?" "Yeah." "She had a part in a kindergarten play." "That's awesome!" "She had no lines, though." "So, she still hasn't?" "No." "As usual, she still won't talk." "There are kids who take a while, so I'm trying not to worry about it." "Sorry for bringing this up." "It's fine." "Anyway, did you get a girlfriend?" "That, so suddenly?" "Because I'm curious!" "I want you to be happy, Roku-chan!" "Thank you for your cooperation." "Have you found someone?" "I haven't!" "What are you asking so suddenly for?" "Pretty suspicious~" "I see a beauty!" "Sure, sure." "Seto.." "Kanna?" "Asami.." "Kanna!" "Seriously?" "!" "It seems so strange." "How are we together again?" "It is strange." "Have you been back to Higashiyama?" "My parents moved so I haven't been back." "What about Maya?" "He's in Tokyo, right?" "No, I haven't seen him." "I see.." "It's been 8 years already, huh." "Yeah." "You know," "I was actually.. a little jealous of you." "Of me?" "Yeah!" "Because I liked Haruta." "That's.. the past, though." "I have a boyfriend, now." "That's good." "What about you?" "Who did you really like?" "Just say it." "A lot of time has passed, now." "I, uh.." "I said some pretty mean things back then but I don't think like that anymore." "At all." "We're 23 now." "Did you know Haruta's family moved, too?" "His dad got remarried." "Did he?" "He's even got another kid." "A boy." "Can you imagine it?" "He'd be Haruta's little brother." "What's wrong?" "Then.." "I wonder where Haruta went." "I'm kidding." "Kanna.." "You're still 15 years old, aren't you?" "You figured it out?" "Momoka!" "Momokaaaa!" "MOMOKA!" "Why are you here?" "What are you doing?" "You know, this is my place." "I was trying to go to Momoka's place!" "Bye!" "Hold it, you're drunk!" "You caught me!" "You are.. very drunk." "No." "Not at all." "Excuse me, passing through!" "Your shoes!" "Christ, are you a kid?" "Yup!" "I'm still just 15." "It seems there's a child." "It's Haruta's little brother." "Haruta's dad got remarried and is happy with a new family." "I guess that's to be expected, though." "He's done nothing wrong." "But.." "Then.." "Where can Haruta go back to?" "Can I.." "cry" "right now" "for just a little bit?" "Hey" "Let's go and visit Haruta." "Um.. this is really very strange." "It's fine." "I'm strange, too." "There's something to do while while we're at it, so it works out." "So, which way?" "Uhhhh.." "Huh?" "Where are we right now?" "Didn't you live here?" "Here?" "Didn't you live here?" "Didn't you live here?" "[Haruta]" "Hello?" "Akazawa-kun?" "You're coming today, right?" "My 15th year of manga writing anniversary party." "Ohhh, sorry, I can't." "So mean!" "Please don't run off, just wait for me." "You can head over now, right?" "Sorry, I'll make up for it another time." "Let's go." "Hello!" "Byebye~~~" "Where should we go?" "Byebye." "To the park?" "Yeah!" "To the park!" "What do you want to do at the park?" "Swings!" "Swings are a good idea!" "No resemblance." "He doesn't look at all alike." "Is that disappointing?" "No." "I'm..glad they don't." "Why did you come with me?" "It's not just for me, is it?" "Mmm.." "I was curious about the kid." "You have a kid?" "How dumb are you?" "Ohhh!" "The one in the picture." "Yeah." "Kakinouchi's sister." "I told you about her." "She told me to come see her at least once." "Well, it doesn't have to be today, though." "Let's go!" "What?" "It's far!" "It's fine!" "We'll go full speed!" "The kid still hasn't spoken, so she seems to be worried." "How old?" "4." "I see.." "I wonder what souls are made of." "I wonder where they are." "Maybe at graves?" "I'd like to think they're somewhere with more freedom." "Basically, it'd be better if they weren't at graves." "Even though we visited a grave?" "Even though you said we should visit Haruta?" "That was because your past is weighing you down, isn't it?" "Hey," "Was Haruta cruel to you?" "Would he bind you in place and put you through all this pain?" "Remember him." "You've got to remember everything about him." "I feel bad for him." "~Fill up the bentou box~ [this is a child's nursery rhyme] [this is a child's nursery rhyme]" "~To the brim with onigiri, onigiri~ [this is a child's nursery rhyme] [this is a child's nursery rhyme]" "~Sprinkle on sesame salt~ [this is a child's nursery rhyme]" "You sing too, Mucchan!" "Hello~ Roku-chan?" "Now?" "!" "Really?" "!" "I'll be right there!" "Hold on!" "Mucchan, come here!" "Hurry!" "Roku-chan!" "Mutsumi, go!" "Mutsumi!" "Mucchan ate sesame salted rice balls." "I loooove sesame salted rice balls." "Want to come have some?" "Mucchan wanted to meet you!" "I was so tired of waiting~" "No way.. she talked!" "Mutsumi.. who is this?" "Mama!" "Say it again!" "Mama!" "Mama!" "Mucchan!" "Then, Mutsumi.. who am I?" "Roku-chan!" "Amazing, Mutsumi!" "Mutsumi, this is Kanna-chan." "Kanna-chan." "Nice to meet you, Mutsumi-chan." "Nice to meet you, Kanna-chan." "Mucchan!" "Mucchan!" "Thank goodness!" "Why are you crying, mama?" "Are you hungry?" "Thank you!" "Mucchan, thank you!" "Thank goodness.." "What?" "I thought you might be crying." "I'm not crying." "Akazawa-san." "There's somewhere I want to go, as well." "His masterpiece." "Did you remember him?" "I think.." "Souls.. most likely go on without forgetting anything, I think." "Everything painful that I want to forget right now, and everything important that I can't remember." "Somehow," "I've come to think that about them." "Actually" "I said I came here for you, but I think I came here for myself." "I've been seeing a lot of children lately." "So" "Somehow, I've been curious." "About the kid." "About Mutsumi." "She.." "looks exactly like Kakinouchi." ""I was so tired of waiting"" ""I wanted to meet you!"" "She saw my face.." "and spoke for the first time." "What's up with her?" "What is it with her?" "I knew you needed this." "I don't need it." "A man shouldn't wipe tears on a napkin." "A man shouldn't be crying in front of a girl, either." "That's mean." "Um.." "About today." "Thank you." "So very much." "Hey, Seto." "Why are you zoning out?" "You've been strange since you got back." "You know," "I forgot to send this." "Can anyone deliver it?" "I'll go!" "So, please take care of this." "Okay." "Um.." "Where's Akazawa-san?" "He went to the terrace a little while ago." "That's good." "Oka~y!" "Thank you very much." "I'm changing the lighting." "Okay!" "Ah, thank you." "Hello." "I'm very sorry we couldn't properly introduce ourselves before." "Ah, okay." "Are you looking for Akazawa-kun?" "He's already gone." "Is he?" "I'm sorry for intruding, then." "Thank you in advance." "Thank you." "Then, to make it formal.." "I'm Nohara." "On that note, tomorrow is Akazawa-kun's birthday." "You didn't know?" "We're going to be celebrating at my place." "He's decided to go out." "Go out?" "With who?" "With me." "Nohara-sensei, we're ready." "Okay!" "Bye, then." "Sorry!" ""He's decided to go out", huh." "Hello." "You can take any of the ones you want." "Thank you." "Can I take this one?" "Of course." "Listen" "It's about Haruta." "I've always struggled with whether or not to tell you." "Roku-san even told me not to tell you." "Akazawa-san did?" "Why?" "Because it would be too harsh for you." "But.. he really, really did care for you." "But, Kiyomasa-kun.." "Haruta had never said anything to me." "Tell me." "Hey" "The girl you like.. it's Kanna-chan, right?" "Did I ask something I shouldn't have?" "Haruta?" "I wonder why" "I have so little confidence." "Confidence?" "I wonder.." "She's the only one I have no confidence around." "Even though she's the most important." "When I try to take a step forward, my legs just freeze up." "It feels like there's a hole I'd step and fall into." "Like if I fell into it, I wouldn't be able to come back out." "Somehow.." "I get so scared." "What do you mean a hole you'd fall into?" "There's no hole you can't get out of." "You just have to climb out." "I wonder if that's true." "Of course, you idiot." "Stop being so hesitant, loser!" "Loser?" "!" "Stop being nervous and just go!" "Yeah!" "I will!" "Yeah, I'm a loser." "Is is that bad?" "But I'm seriously scared." "I'm ridiculously scared." "But I.." "You what?" "I.." "I'm really happy when she's around." "Something like that?" "You're making me feel awkward, man." "Shut up, idiot." "The hell?" "Loser." "That hurts." "I don't want a loser calling me a loser!" "Sorry, sorry!" "I'm just kidding!" "It's cold!" "I, somehow, can't forget his face back then." "Are you okay?" "Thank you." "I'm glad you told me." "I'm coming." "This might be the first time I've actually ran." "So that, while I'd been idling about, he doesn't disappear from my life." "Yes, yes, yes!" "I'm fine any time." "What about you, sensei?" "I wonder.. next week should be fine." "Then we'll go with next week." "Nice, I'll be looki- oh." "Yes, coming!" "Akazawa-kun." "It's for you." "What?" "What happened to make you come all the way here?" "Um.." "Th.. there's something I want to say." "What is it?" ""What is it".. well.." "Since it's your birthday," "I wanted to say congratulations." "Also.." "Also.." "I wanted to let you know how I feel." "But.." "I heard you're already going out." "Going out?" "I hope you find happiness with Nohara-sensei." "What?" "Hey!" "Hold on!" "Well then, let's eat some cake." "What about Akazawa-kun?" "Did he go home?" "Yeah, he's gone." "Alright!" "After we eat this, we get to work!" "~" "Calling it a test was strange!" "I never even replied!" "What nerve you have!" "Normally you'd NEVER move on to the next so quickly!" "You're terrible!" "I think you might be misunderstanding?" "Who's going out with who, exactly?" "Sensei and.. you." "Yeah, we're going out." "To a meeting." "A meeting?" "About her manga." "She was crying that she wasn't going to be able to make her next deadline." "So?" "What is it?" "What did you want to tell me?" "No.. today is a bit rui" "Seriously, you're so frustrating!" "Are you ready?" "I'm going to say it properly this time." "I'd like you to give a clear reply." "G-go ahead." "I like you so much that I want to stay with you forever." "So?" "I, too, don't want to leave you alone." "I won't leave you alone." "What was that just now?" "I.. don't have a birthday present for you." "I'm going home!" "Hey, hold on!" "I didn't really understand that!" "Okay?" "Once more!" "Do it again!" "I'm good!" "Kanna!" "What are you getting shy for?" "Shut it."
