"No way!" "There's no ironclad rule like that!" "No, no, no, no!" "You've got guts." "Come and get me!" "What's wrong?" "What're you so scared of?" "You there." "You're taking a little trip to the police box with me." "Hey!" "Lemme go!" "Gyahahaha!" "Moron!" "Moron!" "She's being disciplined!" "Serves you right!" "I don't want the handbag you gave me!" "Damn it, I am here to protect the peace of Shibuya." "And you're always stirring up trouble, day after day." "Ran, are you listening?" "Talk about super-boring." "Hey!" "Pay attention!" "If your brother, that's ME, hadn't stopped the commotion, you would've been disciplined for real!" "You should be grateful!" "Yeah, yeah, thank you so very much." "It's so pitiful."

"Woohoo, boxed lunch from the loving wife!" "Way to go!" "Shut up!" "But don't you think it's just so dramatic that we fell in love because Miyu got disciplined?" "Hey, I'm on duty right now." "(But he's enjoying it a bit)" "It's okay, right, Yamato?" "Case in progress!" "Case in progress!" "Requesting backup!" "Miyu, thanks for the lunch!" "Ran, go straight home!" "Later." "See you later!" "Be careful!" "(Brakes Out Of Order)" "Oh, he's just so super-cool!" "How?" "Back when Miyu was really out of hand," "Yamato patiently listened to Miyu's problems (The Gaze of a Maiden in Love) and wrapped Miyu up in his warm heart." "That's why this is Yamato and Miyu's memorial police box of love." "So, have you kissed?" "Not yet!" "He said he's going to wait until Miyu grows up a little more!" "Take it easy, take it easy." "That's much better than a guy who's in a hurry to get physical." "Wow, that was serious advice, coming from you." "My principle is not to give up my body unless I can be absolutely sure of the other person's love." "Don't worry." "Miyu's absolutely sure of his love." "Right, Yamato?" "Yeah, yeah." "Kotobuki." "Kotobuki." "KOTOBUKI!" "Wake up, Kotobuki!" "(Still First Hour)" "Oh, morning, Naka-Teach." "Hey, I am not Naka-Teach!" "It's Mr. Nakanishi!"

"That's the kind of guy I just totally hate!" "What's with you?" "He's incom cooler than your typical idol!" ""Incom" means "incomparably"." "That's common knowledge for gals." "At any rate, having a bag from Meisho Number 1 is a status symbol for gals." "I want!" "I want one too!" "I want!" "I want!" "I want one too!" "I want it even more if it's free!" "She's throwing a fit..." "What is she, a brat in a toy store?" "Ran tends to want trendy things more than most people." "Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme!" "What?" "!" "Gimme, gimme, gimme!" "No, no, no!" "Gimme, gimme, gimme!" "No, no, no!" "She's trying to snatch it." "Ran tends to want what someone else has more than most people." "Darn!" "Satsuki's such a cheapskate." "It can't be helped." "Since it's come to this..." "Hey, hey, have you heard the rumor about Miss Hoshino?" "What, what?" "I heard she's going out on subsidized dates." "What?" "!" "No way!" "You sure it's not made up?" "But Mitsuko in Class 5 said she saw her walking with an old guy in Shibuya." "For real?" "!" "That's so daring!" "Talk about super-unexpected, of all people..." "Hey, Ran." "Come on, Ran, what are you up to now?" "A bag!" "A b-a-g!" "What?" "A bag?" "Wait, you don't mean a Meisho Number 1 bag?" "!" "If you want something, get it no matter what." "(Good kids, don't copy her)" "That's an ironclad rule for gals." "You're not thinking of stealing one, are you?" "There's a much better way of getting it than stealing." "It worries Miyu, since your brain is simple." "That hurt!" "Miyu, wait here a sec!" "Oh, Ran!" "What's wrong?" "Ran?" "!" "Hoshino!" "What?" "Yo!" "I thought it was you." "Miss Kotobuki?" "Wow, I didn't know you dressed like that." "You seem really different compared to when you're in school." "Oh?" "What's wrong?" "What?" "No, it's nothing." "You seemed to be in a hurry." "You okay?" "Are you on your way to cram school or something?" "I've got something urgent to do, so I'm skipping today." "I didn't know you did things like that too." "Say, Hoshino, is it true that you're going out on subsi-dates?" "(Asks point-blank.)" "What?" "Why are you asking me?" "Because there are rumors going around." "If it's not true, I'll tell them they're wrong." "Yeah, right!" "As if a model student like you would ever go on subsi-dates!" "Is it so strange?" "Would it be so strange if I were going out on subsi-dates?" "Hoshino?" "They're right, I am." "No way!" "It's true." "I am going on subsi-dates." "WHAT?" "!" "I'm not trying to hide it or anything!" "I don't care if you tell everyone that it's true!" "Goodbye!" "Hoshino!" "Hey, wait, Hoshino!" "Hoshino is..." "Fo..." "Fo..." "Fo..." "For real?" "!" "Oh, Ran!" "Hey, where'd you run off to?"

"He looks kind of timid." "I think I could drop him in one shot!" "And I'll get to brag to everyone about it if I do." "(Mini-Guts)" "Hey, let me have your bag!" "Who are you?" "A first year student at Hounan High School, Ran Kotobuki." "It's okay, right?" "Let me have your bag." "No." "What?" "Gimme!" "Gimme!" "Gimme your bag!" "Once you've grabbed it, never let go!" "That's an ironclad rule for gals!" "The better way to get it than stealing was to bum it off him?" "Ran's brain is simple after all." "Shuddup!" "Hey, why don't you give it up already?" "Oh, you're the second place guy!" "What?" "Second place?" "(Yuya Asou" " Age 16)" "My name's Yuya Asou, you know." "Anyway, he's had three bags stolen from him already." "You should just give up."

"I ain't got any money." "I'm dirt poor." "Hmm, I see." "Then, if you pay it off with your body," "I won't mind giving this to you." "As a rule, I don't generally like gals, but you're selling all the time anyway, aren't you?" "Don't mess with me!" "You're totally wrong if you think all gals sell!" "Don't take the world's greatest gal for a fool!" "Oh, Ran, wait up!" "What's up with that?" "!" "Uber pissed!" "(Uber Pissed = Super Pissed)" "My bag..." "Rei, I didn't dig that gutter joke either." "(Sigh...) (Wallet)" "But that Ran girl was kind of intense." "Maybe I'll ask her out next time!" "(Fantasizing off in his own world)" "Dangerous." "This is bad." "(Kotobuki Residence)" "I got carried away and ended up bringing it with me." "Shoot!" "My pride just doesn't allow for theft." "It's true!" "I'm going out on subsidized dates!" "I can't just leave her alone." "Yo!" "Morning, Hoshino." "Oh, hey!" "Wait!" "Hoshino!" "Wait up!" "What?" "Come on, Hoshino, quit going on subsi-dates." "This has nothing to with you, Miss Kotobuki." "Why do you want money so badly?" "!" "Hoshino?" "My parents are really strict." "I have a set curfew." "Naturally, I'm not allowed to get a job." "And I get scolded if I get bad grades." "But I want to have fun too." "I want to go shopping and dress up, just like everybody else." "That's what you want money for?" "Hoshino, you haven't..." "Not yet." "All I've done is go on dates so far." "But when I see him next time, I'll probably..." "Hoshino..." "This is something I'm doing because I want to!" "Just leave me alone already!" "Hey!" "Hoshino!" "Hoshino!" "Hoshino..." "What?" "!" "What?" "!" "This is Otohata's bag?" "Yup, it's a genuine, 100% pure bag from Rei Otohata!" "Ooh!" "Let us touch it!" "Let us touch it!" "Sure, touch it, touch it." "But when I see him next time, I'll probably..." "What?" "A record of being disciplined?" "Her name's Aya Hoshino." "Does she have a record of being disciplined?" "Hoshino?" "Let's see." "Hoshino, Hoshino..." "Nope, no record of her at this police box." "Man, you're totally useless!" "Well, not that I expected her to have a record of being disciplined." "Then don't ask me!" "Hi, there!" "Hey, hey, Ran, I just saw Miss Hoshino." "What?" "!" "She was totally dressed in the mat gal style." "I was so surprised." ""Mat gal" means "mature gal"." "That's common knowledge for gals." "Where?" "!" "Where did you see her?" "!" "Let me think." "Close to Bunkamura Street?" "Bro, I'm borrowing your bike!" "What?" "!" "Stop!" "Wait!" "Ran!" "Hoshino!" "(Eyes With Target In Sight Part 2)" "Hey, the brakes are broken!" "What?" "!" "Say that earlier, you stupid bro!" "I wonder if Ran's around?" "Dangerous." "Hey, Kotobuki." "Oh, Otohata!" "Ran!" "Second Place!" "What?" "Second place?" "I told you, I'm Yuya Asou." "(Super High School Student Grand Prix -- 1st Place 2nd Place --)" "That's right!" "Otohata, take me to Bunkamura Street!" "(She's not listening.)" "Get off!" "I'm not a taxi!" "Never mind that, just go!" "Damn." "Wait up, Ran!" "Ran!" "Otohata, you're too slow!" "Hurry up!" "Keep complaining and you're getting off!" "Oh, Hoshino!" "Stop!" "What?" "!" "Hurry up and stop!" "Hoshino!" "Wait!" "Sorry." "You might be able to walk all over me in schoolwork, but I'm more than a match for you when it comes to running!" "What are you doing here?" "You're waiting for the subsi-date guy, right?" "I told you to leave me alone, didn't I?" "What I do has nothing to do with you!" "Yeah, it does!" "We're classmates, aren't we?" "!" "Come on, Hoshino, I don't have money either, but I have fun being a gal." "Don't you have any pride?" "!" "It doesn't matter anymore." "What?" "!" "At first, I was riddled with guilt." "But it's just going out on dates." "When I decided to think of it that way, it got easier." "As long as I didn't sell my heart..." "I see, so except for your heart, your body's just a thing?" "!" "That's right!" "What's wrong with that?" "!" "Hoshino, grit your teeth!" "What did you do that for?" "!" "Don't be such a brat!" "That hurt, didn't it?" "!" "But if you really are a thing, then you would never be able to feel pain!" "Because if you didn't feel pain, it'd be the same as if your heart had died!" "Try cutting up your own flesh and selling it!" "If you can't do that, then quit talking like you know everything!" "Miss Kotobuki..." "That's right." "You'd have more fun hanging out with us than with some old guy." "We'll even listen to your problems." "Okay?" "Miss Yamazaki..." "Are you sure?" "It'll take the whole night..." "Yup!" "Lay it all on us!" "That's our Ran." "You're the daughter of a policeman after all." "Shoot!" "I got all passionate without meaning to!" "Um..." "Um..." "I haven't used any of the money I received for the dates, so please confiscate it." "(How many takoyaki would that buy?" ")" "Roger that, Ma'am!" "Oh, shoot!" "Otohata!" "You can have this back." "Sorry for taking off with it." "You can have it, since you put on a good show for us." "You don't look it at all, but you're a smartass." "I get that a lot." "Oh, well." "See ya!" "Thank you!" "Ran!" "She's so cute!" "Dangerous." "So, what do you do to have fun?" "Teach me how gals have fun." "First, you get made up with the sample products at drug stores." "Wow..." "Oh, yeah!" "Let's go karaoke!" "They have discount time until 5 o'clock." "What?" "Really?" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "Come on, hurry, hurry!" "Let's go karaoke, Aya." "What?" "Aya..." "Hey, what's the matter?" "Come on, hurry up!" "Okay!" "(New Friend Aya Hoshino" " Age 16)" "Wait for me!" "Let's hurry, or discount time will be over!" "Never waste any money!" "That's an ironclad rule for gals!" "I hate it, you're always laughing" "And so strong and cute and popular" "I hate it, I'm so dull and slow" "And no one needs me..." "You're smart and always so perfect" "People probably just make fun of me" "To be honest, I want to try talking to you" "I want to become friends with you" "I was so envious of you" "And my shoulders would tremble as I cried alone" "Tell me, are you alone and afraid too?" "Is everyone miserable and weak?" "If only I had more courage" "I would have given you a hug" "Next Super GALS!" "Part, part, part, part, part-time jobs!" "Newspaper delivery, convenience store clerks, and waitresses!" "There are a lot of part-time jobs out there!"
