"(Keyaki Cram School)" "Those guys have been running rampant lately." "I hear they hang out a lot towards Subdivision 6." "What?" "That's the direction I live in." "Oh, right." "Your house is in Subdivision 6." "I'll walk you home." "You... will?" "It's still weird, no matter how you look at it, right?" "We go to different schools and go home in different directions..." "It's weird... isn't it?" "Because I'm worried..." "I'll protect you for sure." "I-It's still weird!" "I mean, Gori's really scary!" "(Maruhara Sweets Bread Milk Juice)" "Or rather, stuff like this sort of puts me in a tough spot." "I'll beat up that Gori for you." "Hey!" "What did you just say about me?" "!" "You're being awfully cocky for a little twerp!" "Run, Aihara!" "Hurry up and go!" "You're a fifth grader." "What're you trying to act all cool for?" "Let's beat him up!" "Did you forget to bring an umbrella?" "(Keyaki Cram School)" "Oh..." "Yeah." "You want to... go home together?" "About yesterday..." "Hey, hey, you know the Dokkiriman Chocolates..." "Let's go." "Oh, wait for us, Gori!" "Huh?" "I'll always protect you, Aihara." "Okay?" "Okay." "(Tabeya)" "Good night." "Good night." "It's really been a long time, hasn't it?" "Oh, yeah..." "You've changed, Jun." "What?" "You've grown up so much!" "But I was so surprised." "I never thought we'd meet again like that." "Me neither." "The moment I realized it was you, everything that happened back then passed through my mind." "Jun, do you remember?" "Oh, I-I'm sorry." "I... have to go here..." "Oh, okay." "Later." "Good night." "Jun, there was never a moment when I forgot about you." "I always believed that we'd meet again someday." "After all, you're my..." "Hello!" "Be right there!" "Welcome!" "Oh!" "We came to see how you're doing at your job." "So you came!" "Hey, the person back there..." "Is that the boyfriend we heard about?" "Oh..." "Yeah..." "Jun." "Hey, today's special is fried chicken!" "These are my classmates, Satsuki and Ran." "Hey, today's special is fried chicken!" "Hey, Rie, I want some fried chicken!" "Jun?" "Hey, I'd be happy with croquettes, too." "I'll be going home now." "Hey, thanks for your hard work." "(Part-Timer Wanted)" "Are you looking for another person?" "Oh, well, you know." "Ohta's not going to be around much longer, so..." "Huh?" "You hadn't heard?" "He's going to Kansai because of his father's work or something." "What was the name again?" "You know that high school that's really strong in baseball?" "He's apparently transferring there." "So he's only here until the end of the week." "I-I was thinking of telling you tomorrow or thereabouts..." "What?" "About me moving..." "You'll really get to play baseball seriously, won't you?" "Your dream's come true, hasn't it?" "I'm going to join the baseball team." "What?" "I'll go to Koshien and..." "Yeah." "I played in the prelims at the Western Tokyo Tournament this summer and I apparently caught the eye of the prestigious Kansai West Commercial." "Anyway, Aihara..." "Your friends who came by this evening..." "The one with red highlights..." "You mean Ran?" "How long have you known her?" "Since grade school..." "I-I see." "I see." "So he was your first love." "So you were dating him back in grade school." "Yeah." "Baseball team?" "You're quitting cram school?" "Yeah, probably." "Then..." "We won't be able to go home together anymore, will we?" "Aihara, let's go see a movie next time!" "A movie?" "Yeah!" "Jun..." "Is that a no?" "Of course, I'll go!" "Wow, so what happened?" "On your first date." "He suddenly had to move because of his father's work and Jun transferred to a school in Chiba." "So you thought you'd been separated for eternity, but you just happened to be reunited..." "And your heart's leaping all over for him again, huh?" "But it must come as a super shocker that you're gonna be separated so soon after being reunited." "Especially with him leaving next Monday..." "I guess it means your chances are limited." "Chances?" "To tell him how you feel." "What?" "!" "Wasn't that what you were planning?" "What?" "!" "It's not going to happen... now..." "I think he's kinda avoiding me." "Even when I invite him to go to a cafe on the way home, he keeps coming up with some reason to turn me down." "What?" "!" "T-T-There's no way!" "You guys looked good together!" "Right, Ran?" "Maybe there's someone else he likes..." "Wha!" "Wha?" "!" "Your friend..." "The one with red highlights..." "Man, don't say tactless things like that!" "Seriously!" "You're so insensitive to a girl's feelings of love!" "(Insensitive)" "Hah!" "Hey, Rie, quit being so timid and go for broke!" "It's time for me to go to work, so I'm gonna go." "Oh, w-w-w-wait, Rie!" "Looks like she's seriously lovesick." "She's got it bad." "Ran, what do you want to do now for today?" "Oh, sorry." "I've got a little thing I gotta go do now." "Congratulations!" "You are the 10 billionth person to enter Shibuya Center!" "Huh?" "Oh, here." "Here's your prize of a ticket for two to a movie!" "(Lovey-dovey Ticket For Two Special Complimentary Movie Ticket)" "Isn't that kind of cheap?" "(-gratulations)" "More like, what're you doing, Ran?" "Huh?" "Ran?" "Who's that?" "Oh, whatever." "I'll take them." "I have no idea who you're talking about." "Here you go." "Young people shouldn't be shy about these things." "Go see it with your boyfriend or something!" "Ran..." "Clean up after yourself." "I was gonna use that ticket to go to the movies with Yamato!" "What?" "Promise?" "Yeah." "Do you remember that time?" "You said that you'd take me to the movies." "Oh, it's been an awfully long time since then..." "We're in high school already, after all." "But it's okay." "I want to do it now." "Let's go on Sunday." "Together." "Aihara..." "I-I just don't think going out with you is..." "Why not?" "Because you're moving far away?" "Or is there some other reason?" "Y-You know?" "!" "Did you hear about it from Ran?" "From Ran?" "About what?" "N-No, nothing..." "Please..." "This might be the last time, so..." "The last time?" "Come on..." "We might never get to see each other again!" "She's right, this could be the last time." "Alright, I'll tell her everything on Sunday and..." "Let's go, Aihara." "Jun!" "Do you remember our cram school teacher at all?" "(Shibuya Center)" "Yeah, sort of." "He's opened a karate training hall and..." "Jun?" "Wasn't that Ran just now?" "I doubt it." "You're probably mistaken." "Oh, say, why don't we grab a bite to eat before the movie?" "Sure." "Man, that was close." "I thought for sure I'd been spotted." "I've actually been wanting to see this movie." "I'm so happy that I'll get to see it with you." "S-So um, this is actually about Ran, but..." "What about Ran?" "Uh, no, so..." "I was just wondering if you and Ran hang out together all the time." "You know, like on non-school days." "It's not like we're always together." "We're not in grade school, after all." "That's true." "It's almost time." "Oh, yeah." "Ouch." "It didn't mean anything." "You walked right out the door." "I didn't walk out..." "No, sprinted is more like it." "We both agreed it was a mistake..." "The worst mistake I ever made!" "What do you want from me?" "!" "I'm not saying it didn't mean anything." "I'm saying, why does it have to mean everything?" "You know..." "Your friend..." "How long have you known her?" "About Ran..." "Is Ran..." "Maybe there's someone else he likes..." "Aihara..." "Rie?" "What's wrong?" "Are you feeling sick?" "I knew you were avoiding me, but..." "Aihara?" "But why did it have to be Ran?" "What?" "Ran's been on your mind all this time, right?" "Ever since she first dropped by the store..." "W-What are you talking about?" "What do you want to happen between you and Ran?" "Do you like her?" "R-Ran is..." "She's my friend..." "I don't want you to go far away with her on your mind!" "Aihara, are you thinking there's something between Ran and me?" "Oh no, I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to say things like that." "Aihara!" "Aihara!" "What's the big idea, bud?" "If you bump into someone, the first thing you do is say, "I'm sorry," right?" "Hey, lady, you gotta apologize when you bump into someone!" "No!" "A-Aihara!" "Knock it off!" "What the hell's your problem?" "!" "Damn it!" "You want a piece of me?" "!" "You can't!" "If you get into a fight, the chance you finally got will..." "You'll ruin your transfer to the new school!" "What's wrong?" "!" "Scared?" "!" "Jun!" "Baseball and this are two separate things!" "What Rie said is right." "You shouldn't ruin your future over a couple punks like them!" "What?" "!" "Who're you?" "!" "The moonlight illuminates the villains thriving in Shibuya." "When a maiden's prayers are heard, with justice and love in her heart, the Shibuya Soldier, Maru-Q Moon, appears!" "M-Maru-Q Moon?" "!" "Oh..." "C-Crap!" "Bro, going up against her is a bad idea." "D-Damn it!" "Fine!" "We'll leave it at that for today!" "Just you wait!" "We'll beat the crap outta ya when we see you again!" "Ran, why?" "NO!" "I am not Ran!" "Come on, now!" "It's no use!" "What the heck?" "You done already?" "So, I guess you cry when there's no girl around." "You cocky brat!" "Who're you?" "I'm the Platform Shoes Detective!" "What?" "!" "The Platform Shoes Detective?" "!" "Get her!" "That's why you're not popular with the girls!" "See you again next week!" "Ran..." "Don't "Ran" me!" "I'm not the one you're supposed to be staring at!" "I'm sorry, Ran." "Just like I thought, I went for broke and it's over for me." "I told you, I'm not Ran!" "You've got it all wrong, Aihara." "Should I have kept my nose out of your business?" "It doesn't matter anymore..." "Take care of yourself, Jun." "Goodbye." "Aren't you gonna go after her?" "Tell me, Ran!" "Like you did back then!" "Back then?" "You remember, don't you?" "!" "Back then, when you saved me!" "I don't remember." "What?" "!" "You already know the answer, don't you?" "What?" "Just now, you tried to protect Rie, right?" "Even if it might've ruined your chances at your dream." "Rie went through a lot of trouble to give you this last chance." "Don't you waste it." "I..." "I appreciate it, Ran!" "Alright!" "Aihara." "Um, that is..." "I'm sorry." "Ran said she doesn't remember what happened that time." "That time?" "Yeah." "Don't cry!" "You hesitate and you lose!" "You show them you have a weakness and you'll be bullied forever!" "If you can't even protect the one girl you like, you're a failure as a man!" "Right..." "I liked you ever since I first saw you at cram school, so I acted like it was me, in spite of myself." "It wasn't me that was strong." "The truth was..." "Is that what was bothering you?" "I hadn't actually done anything, so lying and pretending like I was all cool and strong made me feel bad." "I was transferring and I wasn't going to see you anymore, so I told myself it was okay to let things lie." "But..." "You look at me now, just like you used to back then, and that hurt." "When I thought of how I was running away again with that lie between us, somehow, I just couldn't look you straight in the eye anymore." "And finding out that Ran was your friend on top of it all..." "You know, honestly, it made me happy..." "Just the fact that you offered to walk me home." "The fact you said you'd protect me always." "Those feelings were all that mattered." "I didn't care who actually defeated those bullies." "But you..." "You're awful, Jun." "I'm sorry." "I'd never forgotten about you." "I still feel the same now." "Won't you wait for me?" "Until I graduate and come back." "Okay." "A long-distance relationship, huh?" "That might be kind of nice, too." "What?" "This coming from you?" "What?" "I think it's still gotta be Meisho Number 1 for me." "But you know, you just can't find any guys who're cooler than Otohata and Asou." "You're still saying stuff like that?" ""Dear Jun"..."
