"Why won't you understand me?" "!" "Meaning...?" "I have no money!" "I mean, I haven't worked much lately, so..." "Depressed..." "Bro, that's pitiful!" "If you've got time to be depressed, make some kind of effort!" "There are plenty of ways to make money other than working jobs." "You can get money without working?" "5000 yen for half an hour." "What?" "!" "For real?" "!" "(Curry Place)" "I see, so this is what you meant!" "Brother, thank you very, very much!" "I don't need your gratitude." "So, anyway, Tatsukichi, I challenge you!" "Challenge?" "If you can't finish eating faster than me, you don't go on a date, even if you win the money." "I'LL go on the date in your place!" "What?" "!" "Huh?" "I might lose when it comes to eating bananas or ramen, but with a rice dish, I should have an even chance." "No, I have the advantage because I skipped lunch!" "Um, could it be that you hate my bro?" "Huh?" "That's not it, Naoki." "He's just spurring me on to do my best." "Right, brother?" "Who knows?" "Don't be so shy about it!" "Second Place, you really are such a nice guy!" "Nice guy!" "Nice guy!" "NICE GUY!" "(Nice Guy = More than a friend, less than a boyfriend)" "Wh-What's wrong, Mr. Yuya?"

"It's a Tsuruhashi specialty, kimchi curry!" "Thanks for ya business. 3000 yen per person." "Naoki, lend me some money." "Jeez..." "Oh, sorry, Bro, I don't have enough to lend to you." "Ran-pyon, lend me money!" "Man, you're hopeless." "Pay me back tomorrow, okay?" "Sure, sure!" "I'm grateful and overwhelmed!" "Undaunted by rain, hail or even wind!"

"(Fighter = Fighting Game)" "Ran, they said they haven't received any lost and found stuff." "Seriously?" "Which means..." "I'm penniless until the day I get my allowance?" "!" "And my favorite purse is gone, too?" "!" "No way!" "Damn it!" "I'm finding it, no matter what!" "Oh, Ran-pyon!" "Enough with the "Ran-pyon!"" "Yuya, where are you going?" "Where else?" "Going to find Ran's purse." "Good luck, brother!" "Rah!" "Rah!" "Brother!" "(Just For Tatsukichi)" "You're helping, too!" "Of course..." "Listen up, Tatsukichi!" "Ook?" "If you can't even find one measly lost purse, you're not qualified to call yourself Ran's boyfriend!" "If I find Ran's purse first, you're prohibited from calling yourself her boyfriend!" "Brother?" "Here you go." "My!" "You really found it for me?" "!" "Of course, I did." "But, why did you go all-out like that?" "Are guys who go all-out for you... not your type?" "Yuya!" "No..." "Yuya!" "Ran..." "Y-Yuya..." "What's gotten into you?" "To make you kiss a lamp post..." "Come to think of it, why are you following me?" "I'm busy looking for the purse, so why don't you go off to find your new love or something?" "It's okay!" "It's okay!" "I'll help you find the purse, too." "Hey, weren't you going to help me?" "Say, Yuya?" "Ran-ran is Bro's sweetheart, right?" "So, why are you doing so much for Ran-ran?" "Why?" "Th-That's because, you know, uh, she's still my friend." "You can't just ignore it when a friend asks for help." "Ran-ran never asked you, though." "What?" "S-She didn't?" "Something just occurred to me." "Maybe you like Ran-ran, too." "And maybe that's why you're so hard on Bro." "Just kidding!" "What?" "!" "For real?" "My Geroppi..." "Don't you get picked up by some bad guy!" "Hey, watch where you're going!" "K-Kotobuki?" "!" "What's wrong?" "!" "You've got red eyes like a rabbit..." "Have you guys seen my purse?" "Huh?" "My purse!" "MY PURSE!" "Kotobuki, you trying to shake us down?" "!" "Like hell I'd shake anyone down!" "I'm asking if you've seen my purse!" "Like hell we'd know anything about your purse!" "It's a pink purse with Geroppi on it." "And when you shake it, the bell on it makes a nice jingling sound." "Are you telling us to help you find it?" "!" "You noticed?" "Get real!" "Like hell we'd look for it!" "It goes jingle, jingle." "Listen to what we're saying!" "Yeah, yeah, a sound like that..." "Wait..." "Geroppi?" "Geroppi?" "Where are you hiding?" "Hey!" "Hold it right there!" "Ran-pyon, what's going on?" "He's the one who swiped my purse!" "What?" "!" "Swiped?" "!" "Hey, hold it right there, thief!" "Didn't you just tell me not to go after someone's girlfriend?" "(Jab)" "B-B-But see, I liked Ran even before Tatsukichi showed up and I was the one who noticed her first, so..." "Those are just excuses." "(Jab Jab Jab)" "And didn't you say a man makes a clean break?" "(Jab Jab Jab Jab Jab Jab)" "Were you lying about all that?" "It's true, a man wishes for the happiness of the woman he loves and gives up." "However!" "Fighting!" "And fighting!" "And fighting to the very end to get the woman you love is also being a man!" "So, I'm not going to give up!" "Just watch, someday, I'll become First Place in Ran's heart!" "Y-Yuya..." "Stop!" "Damn it!" "I made it to the Nationals in track once and she can keep up with me?" "What kind of girl is she?" "!" "Hey!" "Stop!" "Give back my Geroppi purse!" "Hold it, you swiper!" "Give back my Geroppi purse!" "Ran-ran, just a moment, please!" "I'll catch the swiper for you!" "Hey, don't do it!" "It's too dangerous for you!" "Hold it right there!" "I'll get ahead of him!" "Yay!" "Huh?" "Where's the swiper?" "What about Ran-ran?" "Looks like I'm lost..." "I'm so glad Masato's temperature has gone down." "I'm relieved, datchu." "(CRASH!" ")" "Ow ow ow..." "Ow ow ow ow, datchu." "Hey, that's dangerous, datchu!" "Go skateboard in the park, datchu!"

"(Out Sick)" "Hey, hold it right there!" "What?" "!" "Damn it!" "Alright, we've got him cornered!" "You sure put us through a lot of trouble!" "You've got nowhere to run now!" "S-Stay away from me!" "What did I ever do to you?" "You stole my purse!" "Now, give it back!" "I don't know anything about that!" "Damn!" "You think you can mess with me?" "!" "Ran-pyon!" "Tatsukichi!" "Leave this to me." "This kind of thing is a boyfriend's job." "That's common sense for Tatsuki!" "The hell?" "!" "You're awfully cocky for a guy who looks like a monkey!" "You shouldn't underestimate monkeys!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Tatsukichi, that's awesome!" "Ook!" "This is none other than the Machida Black Fist technique!" "I shall explain!"

"Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "Ook!" "(Cossack Dance)" "Ook!" "Good work, Tatsukichi!" "Leave the rest to me!" "If that's how you want to play..." "Ran-ran, sorry for the wait!"

"Ran-ran complimented me!" "Ow ow ow ow ow..." "Now, I expect you to surrender for sure this time." "Like hell I'm surrendering!" "Ran!" "Brother!" "Yuya!" "Brother!" "H-Hey, are you okay?" "!" "No prob, no prob." "Nevermind me, hurry up and get the swiping bastard." "Surrender!" "Give it back!" "Yuya, are you okay?" "That was so reckless of you!" "Save the woman you love without regard for your own well-being." "What else is there for a man to do?" "Yuya, what an admirable man you are!" "You are truly a man among men!" "(Man)" "A real man indeed!" "(Man)" "In English, that'd be "the man"!" "(Man)" "I'm so impressed!" "(Man)" "(Heh)" "No doubt about it, it's Ran-pyon's purse." "P-Please forgive me." "I haven't touched the money at all." "We'll know if you're telling the truth or not once we look inside." "The money's gone!" "No money!" "What?" "!" "That's a lie!" "I didn't take any money!" "But... there's only 507 yen left." "Hell if I know!" "Lying is the first step to becoming a thief." "In other words, thieves are liars." "That's a little piece of Tatsuki trivia." "No, he seriously hasn't stolen anything." "Ook?" "Because 507 yen is the total sum of my fortunes right now." "...right now right now right now..." "Ook." "Well, at any rate, I got my favorite Geroppi purse back and we handed the thief over to Bro, so it's happily ever after." "It was all worth it for me to go to that trouble as your boyfriend, too." "Though, Machida Black Fist wasn't all that useful." "That's mean." "I used it to make him drop his guard." "Yuya, you're okay with this?" "That Cossack dance kick worked, though." "It's not like Bro was the only one that helped." "That Cossack dance kick worked, though." "It's not like Bro was the only one that helped." "Yeah, it worked!" "Yuya..." "Yuya?" "I'm a gruff kind of guy, so..." "Yuya..." "How cool is that?" "!" "Yuya, you're too cool!" "From now on, allow me to call you "Bro"!" "I'll become gruff, too!" "I'll build my character as a man!"
