Thank you for taking Sotetsu Subway today.
This train is bound for Yokohama after parking to each station.
The next stop...
Arriving soon to the next station.
The left side of the train doors will open.
I'll be going ahead.
Ren!
What is it?
You know what?...
I...
I like you, Ren-kun!
Thank you...
But I... I'm seeing someone else...
Hmm.. I know...
Sorry...
It's alright...
I just want to tell you that I'm happy being able to...
...tell you how I feel...
I hope we can still talk to each other from now on...
...as...
...as a friend of yours...
Yeah. Of course...
Ren-kun, right?
What do you want to eat?
Yakisoba.
The bread is super dry...
Ichinose Ren is still as cool as ever...
You're right.
Hey, you already have Daiki with you, right?
I'm not in that kind of relationship with him.
I thought I heard you mention my name?
No, you did not.
Speaking of the devil.
Why not him?
Hey, what did you want to say to me?
I'm sorry... I will pay for the damage.
What's your year and class?
Tenth grade, class one's Kinoshita Ninako.
I'm sorry.
Here.
I chose it randomly...
But I know you have your own preference...
So if you don't like it, you can just throw it away.
I'm not throwing it away.
For someone to do something nice for me...
...no matter what, I would be grateful for it.
That's why... I won't throw it away.
Thank you.
I want pure tea and a sandwich.
That'll be 200 yen. Thank you.
I want pure tea.
Okay.
You don't really drink pure black tea. How strange.
Is that so?
What happened to you?
Thanks.
Will you... go out with me?
I've always liked you ever since in middle school.
When my parents decided to divorce...
...in those times of depression...
You were always there with me....
Since then...
I had always been only looking at you, Ninako...
I'm sorry...
I cannot respond to your feelings...
I know you like Ichinose...
But he has a girlfriend.
His girlfriend...
...is actually my sister.
Oh, I see...
Sorry to make you wait.
It's fine.
Why did you have to fall for a guy like Ichinose?
I really am stupid... He obviously has a girlfriend.
Yeah...
That's even more of a reason...
...why you should probably give it up already...
This did not respond to my love.
Yeah... Give him up.
Ninako...
Good morning.
-Good morning. -Good morning.
I hope we'd still be in the same class.
I hope so too...
What a great weather today.
Yeah, and a new semester has finally began...
In the end, how would our seating end up?
I'm excited.
Right.. Right..
-Good morning. -Good morning.
Sophomores over here...
See your name yet?
Hey, here's our division.
Ninako, there's your name.
Oh, right!
We're in the same class!
Ren... Ren... is also in our class!
He really is!
Let's go.
I am super looking forward to this.
This is great.
I agree.
The three of us are in the same class!
Yup, yup!
Wait for me!
Ninako, hurry!
So, are you ready?
Come on... Go ahead and greet him properly.
I'm sorry!
You startled me there...
I'm really sorry...
Ah! Aren't you that girl whom Ren rejected before spring break?
Hey, not so loud, okay?
And how did you even know about it?
Witness. I was one of the witnesses who saw you there.
The whole school already knows about it.
Of course, any confession done at that kind of site will certainly be known about.
-Bye. -Bye.
Goodbye.
Kinoshita. I hope we get along this year.
Hmm...
I gotta go.
See you tomorrow.
Best regards.
Hey, hey, hey. What's up with that guy?
He's talking quite normally with you.
Isn't his ego too big?
That's not it.
He doesn't want me to be embarrassed that's why he treats me the same. He's being considerate.
And you're fine with it?
Of course.
I asked him to do so.
Let's go, let's go.
Umm...
All of us here are friends and all have been rejected by Ren.
What?
You were really great! To confess to him that boldly!
Much more... We were really moved by you...
Oh...
That's why....
You must really be frustrated with him, right?
That Ichinose Ren.
What?
He's actually dating Mayuka, a model.
Pretending to look so serious so as not to see his real face.
Right?
"Why is this normal and ordinary girl confessing to the almighty me?"
He must certainly be thinking about this kind of thoughts.
Yeah, that's true!
It's odd.
Why would you say something like that to a person you once liked about?
So why are you covering up for Ren?
You can say anything you want about me...
But...
Please don't say bad things about Ren.
What's this about? Covering that kind of person.
Being dumped by him obviously made you think of yourself as his girlfriend.
Too funny, right?
Right!
Too hypocritical, right?
Nonsense.
You keep on saying "Nonsense."
Nonsense. Nonsense.
What... what happened to her?
That girl...
She just covered up for you...
Class officer election. Is there someone you want to put for the position?
Really? No way.
Then, to be fair. I will choose from all of you.
Today is April 9.
Boy number... four.
Ichinose.
Yes.
Sorry, I'll let you handle it.
Okay.
Next is the girl on number... nine.
Kinoshita.
Yes, sir!
Please.
Okay.
How great.
Then...
Here!
Teacher, I volunteer.
Oh, is that so?
Next: self-introduction.
Think about what to say.
What's next?
Wait.
I brought a list.
You all walk too fast!
Ah, yes. Balloon...
Balloon, right?
Hey, are you even listening to me?
Come on, walk a little faster...
You're just too slow.
I followed you two, you know?
You were the one who volunteered yourself, remember?
Hey, this isn't really fun.
I'm tired. I'm dying.
Is it alright for me to take a rest for awhile?
We still have other places to go to.
I'm thirsty...
I'm hungry...
I want to sit...
Then, let's find a store to sit?
That's what I was waiting for!
Ren!
Mayuka!
I'm really sorry... to bother you so suddenly.
Don't sweat it!
Beautiful models are warmly welcome.
Hey, Mayuka-san. You'll only have this?
Yeah... Recently, I've been gaining weight.
Is that so?
Ninako really eats a lot, right?
But! Girls who eat a lot are still cute, you know?
If I were not a model, I would even be stuffing myself a lot.
Ehh? I see...
Oh, that pendant...
Is that the strap you bought for Ninako when hers got broken?
Umm... Right.
You know what, when he was looking for a strap, he really got confused...
He even had to ask for my opinion.
You don't really have to say anything about it.
Now, I see! It was for Ninako.
You really are cute.
Time to eat.
What did you buy?
Well, I have here...
Let me carry that.
Thanks.
It's fine.
Randomly bought party supplies...
Randomly? You really bought a lot...
There are many to buy there...
Over there?
Wait, Ninako! I think my shoelace got untied.
Aren't you wearing shoes without sholelaces?
Okay...
Then... Let's escape!
What?
I say LET'S ESCAPE.
Ren! We'll be relying on you to buy the rest!
Oi, Ando!
Come on, let's go!
Don't worry about it. There's not that many things to buy.
Oh, right...
Come on!
Are you alright?
I can't say I am...
Over here!
Here?
Wait...
I'm exhausted...
We were still on the middle of buying the supplies, you know?
Can't believe you!
Lame! Because you had that look on your face...
I had enough watching.
I'm sure Mayuka-san doesn't know about it, right?
About my confession to Ren.
No matter how much I love Ren...
...my feelings doesn't have anything to do with them, right?
You asked Ren to treat you that way, and you let him get along with it.
Well, there's that too...
I really do not have any idea about the pain of love.
You're right.
So I give my 50 percent thanks to you.
As what you said...
...watching is really tough...
But it does not mean that I have to put all the blame on him.
So that indicates my 50 percent of thanks.
Thank you for bringing me out of there.
Wait... Ninako, wait for me!
Hurry it up!
What's this? An early morning ambush waiting for me?
You...
Oh... Are you angry about what happened yesterday?
Don't get too agitated...
Wasn't it fun to have that alone time... for the both of us?
It's because of that trait you have...
...that involved Kinoshita.
What's this about my trait?
I mean... if you're playing around with her half-heartedly, it's a different talk.
You know what?...
Who is Ninako to you, really?
You have no right to say these words, and you are not eligible for it...
Oohh... It really hurts...
Are you okay?
Ren...
I'm sorry, for leaving early yesterday...
That's because of Ando, right?
He's actually not a bad guy.
But if he ever bullies you, tell me.
Oh, right!
Want to eat chocolate?
Here.
Thanks.
What's wrong?
It's just that... it's great to see a boy who eats sweets.
Why?
For example, two couple dating went to the cafe...
They order different sets of cakes...
...and then exchanging each other's cake. I'm really looking forward to this scene.
But while saying one exchange each only...
...I would end up eating more...
Although he would be surprised at me...
...but he would still speak in a way to really get my side of the cake and give it to me.
Sorry...
Did I scare you?
It sounds very interesting...
Before I got with Mayuka...
I don't really eat sweets...
Is that so?
Because of work, she will control her intake of sweets.
She must think I do not like to eat sweets.
She's really gentle, right?
What?
Give me some.
You can have all.
Thank you.
Ren!
Ren, shoot it!
Yeah!
Ninako?! Did you see it?!
I'm lost for words.
Your father remarried?
What?
He suddenly told me yesterday.
Well, have you accepted it Daiki?
If he wants to get married, then I give him my blessings.
If it was me, you know?
...but my sister...
My sister is convinced... that someday we will be able to reunite our family of four.
There's Ren! Ren!
Strike! Strike!
Do you have any questions?
If there's none, then we're done.
Stand.
Bow.
Goodbye.
Thanks.
Sure.
Ninako... Bye-bye.
Bye.
Ren has been going home early, lately.
Right.
You know something?
It seems he has a part-time job.
Recently, he comes every night to meet with my sister.
You have me on your side...
So everything will be just fine.
About your father...
Accept the situation slowly...
Thank you...
Then went back to work like that...
Don't know when he sleeps...
It's like... as a man, you have to try your hardest since you are being relied on.
Ren, good morning.
Morning.
I heard from Daiki...
About Mayuka-san...
But because you are there for her... Everything will be alright.
I think what I can do for now is being there beside her...
Yeah, you're right.
Ninako? Ninako?
What is it?
You're having problems with your hands...
Class is about to start...
Sorry, Sorry.
You must already be at you limit, right?
Eh?
About Ren.
It's fine, really.
It was me who fell in love with him...
As his friend, being able to stay by his side is enough.
What an amazing thing to say.
Did you know?
People are actually very greedy beings.
If you really like a person, it's a given that you would do anything for that person.
But...
Ren has a girlfriend...
Regardless of how close you are to him...
...he will not mistake you and Mayuka.
It's okay to accept that it is an unrequited love.
This mind of yours will one day reach its limit.
I will decide my own limit.
Not you...
Are you okay?
My parents finally decided to divorce.
Father...
He left home...
Not long ago, we were still laughing together.
We were obviously that happy.
Were those happy times an illusion?
I'm sorry. Cram class is about to begin...
It's alright not to go today...
I'll be by your side.
Just for today only.
And every day after...
I will always be by your side.
I promise to you.
Ren... How are you?
I...
You were at the station when you got surrounded by a group of people.
Then they saw you fall on the floor...
We're you...
...following me all those times?
Because I was worried about you.
Thank you.
It's alright.
I am so lame, aren't I?
I did say so arrogantly that I would support her...
What the hell am I doing?
That's not true.
It's okay, not to try so hard at times.
I see.
What I said seemed pretentious, right?
I'll buy a drink.
You go sleep ahead.
Sorry...
I fell asleep against you.
Almost arriving at Nijinodai. Nijinodai coming soon.
Left side of the door will open up.
Because I overslept...
You just had to sit and endure...
When you're feeling under the weather...
It was just a mild fever.
And I fell asleep too.
You're lying!
You were considerate of me so as not to wake me up...
I'm sorry...
I REALLY honestly fell asleep...
So stop apologizing.
Train is bound for Shonan station.
Then, here's my stop.
I'll send you to the site.
At least let me accompany you all the way...
Any later more and going back home would be dangerous for you...
Go home already.
-Because I caused you a lot o--- -No means no...
It's already too late in the night.
Then...
Be careful on the road.
You too...
Goodbye.
Ren!
Wait!
I think I do need to see you off!
It scared me...
I'm sorry... I always fall off at times like this.
Today has really gotten late...
You should go home...
Goodbye.
People are very greedy.
No...
That's not right...
But Ren has a girlfriend...
I know already!
Yes, I think she will be very pleased.
Sorry to trouble you. Goodbye.
Mayuka.
Do you have time this July 30?
What is it?
"Edge Of The World" party.
It would be great to greet them and show up at the party. What do you say?
I can go.
Then, wait for the invitation that I will give to you.
Sure.
The taste of the wind has become the flavor of the summer.
Is that really so?
I couldn't tell.
Ren, you're like a dog.
Hey, Ren...
What if I told you...
I can't go to the firework display because of work.
Will you get angry?
I see.
If it's work, we can't do anything about it.
I've always had you accompany me all the time, right?
It's better to accommodate you than not seeing you at all...
What's wrong?
Nope, nothing.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
It's over!
Submit all your test papers to the front...
There, there. Hurry, hurry up!
Ando, goodbye.
Goodbye.
-See you tomorrow. -See you tomorrow.
Hey, you go home already. Come on...
If you don't hurry up, you can't go home.
I undersatnd.
I'm sorry about last time.
I had no concern to your feelings. I went too far.
I'm sorry.
I forgive you...
You were thinking about me, right?
Thank you...
I have also experienced the same difficult subject of love.
Eehh? You do?
That's right.
It was a girl I dated back in middle school.
What's that about? You DID date someone before.
But...
The person she really liked... was actually my best friend.
To get close to him, she had to get close to me.
She only used me to get with him.
That's...
All along and until the end...
She wasn't looking at me...
Then one day...
That girl and my bestfriend betrayed me.
Since then...
I became hostile to girls and avoided interaction with them...
But, you know?
This is why I decided to make the best effort to romance.
Is that so?
Ninako...
Are you going to the fireworks display?
Sayuri is going with her junior high friends together.
So I think I will be going with Tsukasa and some friends...
Ehh?
Then let me in the fray too...
Well, I don't see any problem with it...
But I have to ask Tsukasa and the others about it.
Then, i'll be seeing you on 7:00 in the East fields of SEASON collection.
That's an okay, okay?
Welcome.
Ando.
I... am really seriously in love with her...
I've deleted everyone else's contact except for her.
You came all the way just to tell me this?
I did not really think that I would be falling this hard on love.
Why would you have to tell me all this?
Well, that aspect of you hasn't really changed that much, huh?
Well, not like it matters to you...
Oh? Where's Tsukasa?
She just just called me and said she caught a cold.
Is that so?
Then, shall we go?
We're good to go.
Hello.
This is the brand manager and also...
Oh, Hello. Nice meeting you.
I hope you have fun.
Hi there.
This is the brand manager..
Nice meeting all of you...
These are our models.
Designer?
I hope you have a fulfilling time here.
I'll see you later.
Hello.
Thank you for coming.
Wait.
Hello.
I am Korenaga Mayuka. It's a pleasure seeing you.
I've always wanted to see you.
We would want to have you as our spokesperson for next year.
Oh, really?! Thank you so much!
Thank you.
Thank you for having us.
Best regards for the both of us.
Please enjoy and have fun.
Of course.
I'll see you later.
Mayuka, you did great!
-Congratulations. -Oh, thank you.
Congratulations.
Don't think too much about it. What's with that face?
I know.
You obviously don't know.
I think people who underestimates love...
...are the ones who actually needs more determination.
Continuing down this path would only bring pain, you know?
Then, what should I do?
That's why... you only need to work hard and make a clean break.
Even if you have to make use of people.
And who would this someone be?
I can't do such a sly thing..
Takumi?
It really is you! Seeing you is such a coincidence!
Mao.
Your friend?
I was his underclassman in junior high school before.
Is this your girlfried... Takumi?
No...
Anyway...
You really had the nerve to talk to me like this.
What's with that face?
Do you think putting this face on would make you deceive people?
Stop joking with me!
Ando...
What's wrong?
That person is my junior high school ex-girlfriend.
To call someone sly...
She's that kind of girl.
I actually exploded my anger. How lame.
It isn't lame.
This just shows...
...how she was your most beloved person.
That's why being betrayed would really be shocking, right?
But...
It was my bad...
What do you mean?
I did not work hard to make Mao the most important person to me.
So I'm the most useless for hastily exiting out.
I could not even forgive that friend of mine.
So, we stopped talking.
In fact, both of them were my important people.
How lame could I get?
You're not lame, Ando.
Since you were the one who got hurt the deepest.
Of course, I cannot forgive someone that easily.
So, I would also blame myself.
But by never revealing the slightest trace...
You wear a smile on your face...
Even if the truth is that you're in pain.
So you are not lame.
I love you.
Thank you for coming...
Hurry up or it'll be over.
-Gochisosama. -Thank you for coming.
If you still hold the same feelings towards Ren...
I'll help you erase them all.
You still have good jokes in you.
I'm serious.
So it's okay even if you have to use me.
How could I do such a thing?
You do not have to answer now.
Anyway, I'm not expecting to get a positive reply.
But one day...
I know you'll reach your limit.
What's wrong?
Oh, nothing.
Excuse me.
Coming.
Wait for me.
Mayuka.
How nostalgic.
We used to meet regularly here, right?
Right.
Did something happen?
But it really has changed...
That building was not there before.
Those households used to have blue curtains.
There are a lot...
That has really changed since then.
You know what?
Can I tell you something great?
I'm already... doing fine with my father.
But what I had before was different.
Meeting you...
And falling in love with you...
Unknowingly, I became strong.
I'm finally all right..
So we don't have t---
Wait.
What is this about?
This talk about breaking up with me.
You guessed right.
What are you saying?
Why?
Back when we started dating...
Good morning.
I had nothing inside. I was empty.
I was very afraid to go on like... Thinking that some day you'll leave me...
So then I hoped to have more confidence.
My modelling job... unwittingly became important to me.
Much important over you.
So that's your reason?
This is your reaso---
I admit to myself... that I really did change.
Right here...
In fact, you already know that you have someone else in here, right?
Ren, don't force yourself to ignore these feelings yo----
What are you trying to say?
What your trying to do...
...is something that is not right.
These efforts I'm making...
...are not for me.
You only share commitments in order not to violate it.
The truth is...
I really want to grow old with you.
Henceforth...
I'll be by your side.
I promise to you.
Hey...
You were the one with Takumi the other day, right?
Senpai...
Are you inlove with Ichinose-senpai?
Why do you ask?
Your gaze was chasing after him.
No... Not really.
Morning.
Good morning.
What's this about?
I transferred.
I'm happy being in the same school as you.
It's not you and me.
She and I have a few things to talk about.
You can go ahead, Ninako.
But...
There's nothing to worry about.
We're just gonna be talking casually, okay?
I'll see you later.
I don't know what you're thinking about.
If you dare do anything to her, I will not forgive you.
Takumi.
Do you like her now?
It has nothing to do with you.
Good morning.
Morning.
Morning...
-Hey, Ninako... -What the-- how---
What's going on?
Keep calm and listen to me.
Then, next week we'll be following the group hiking.
Fisrt to Kamakura Station West Plaza in the former bell tower set...
Then we go to Hachiman then...
I heard Ren and his girlfriend already broke up.
This way, Ren has been restored back to being single.
Isn't this your chance, Ninako?
I don't think now would be a great idea.
I have to consider his feelings too.
Don't tell me you're fine with being friends ONLY towards him.
If you beat aroud the bush, someone else might take him away.
Hey, Ninako... Are you fine with how things are?
Well, if you only think about Ren as a friend...
Then that means if he finds a new girlfriend, you will have to give them your blessings.
We must comply with the order to observe safety.
Everything should be done by group.
Your reply?
We understand.
Then, dismissed.
Let's go.
Where do we go first?
Tsuruoka Hachiman Shrine.
But Ninako has the tendency to get lost, you know?
Hey, that's not true!
Well, we can't say for sure!
I do get the feeling that she will.
Kinoshita.
Ninako.
Kinoshita.
Ninako.
Kinoshita.
Ouch...
Hey, are you okay?
You shouldn't be laughing...
Ouch... ouch ouch...
Can you stand up right?
This is the worst!
It's covered with mud.
Thank you.
Oh, wait for a while.
Don't move, stay as you are.
The other hand.
It's like you're becoming my mother.
First time I'd been described as someone like a mother.
Could it be that your feeling cold? I can ju---
No, I'm not cold.
But you're already sneezin----
I'm fine.
I broke up with Mayuka.
Unwittingly...
...my feelings...
...got all jumbled up and I got confused.
I ignored Mayuka's emotions.
I imposed my selfishness on her.
Sorry.
I must have said something wierd.
Not really.
I think everyone already left.
That's because you're so kind, Ren.
You always consider the other's feelings first...
Even if you're barely keeping yourself in check.
But I think it's a good aspect of you, Ren.
I think Mayuka must also be aware of it.
After talking to you...
I feel all cheered up.
Ninako.
Ando...
Come on, I was worried sick about you!
Ah, I'm really sorry.
Where are the others?
I don't know anymore.
You and I are in different groups, after all.
I'll go look for them.
That..
It's his.
We got here ten minutes ago, from north Kamakura Station/
Let's look for something good to eat.
Ren, it's been a while.
Here are the books and CD I borrowed.
Thank you.
I... After hearing what you had to say...
I did not immediately come to understand it.
Trying hard to suppress these feelings...
I had to protect you and used this as an excuse to deceive ourselves.
I should have admitted that I really did change.
For everyting, thank you.
I think I had to tell you...
...what I wanted you to know.
Goodbye.
Bye-bye...
Ren.
Your parka.
Thank you.
Your welcome.
Still not going home?
I will..
I'm about to.
Thank you for your patronage.
Hey, this is a super cute flower.
It is from the house with the most beautiful store.
Doesn't it feel natural and ordinary?
Yeah, you're right.
The summer and autumn season's moisture are being mixed in the air.
Hey, that song...
My mind just sang the same melody...
In sync?
We really have a tacit understanding.
I think so.
What do you want to do this coming Autumn?
Autumn?
Read.
Reading? You often do read a lot.
Good morning.
What are you listening to?
Oh, this song.
It's the song you hummed.
I wanted to have a good listen to it.
I do think that this song is nice, isn't it?
Good morning.
Thank you.
How is it?
Can you please...
...not get too close with Ichinose-senpai?
During junior high...
I broke the relationship between Takumi and Ichinose-senpai.
What do you mean?
Because I wanted to be close to Ichinose-senpai...
I used Takumi for that intention.
Then... That best friend Ando was referring to...
...was Ren?
Mao.
Because senpai was so kind...
There was no way he would go out with his friend's girl.
But between these two people, cracks appeared.
I really regretted doing that kind of thing in the first place.
That's why...
I asked you before if you were inlove with Ichinose-senpai.
If that's the case...
Your feelings will only be bringing trouble to Ichinose-senpai.
Like what happened to me.
A big growing rift broke those two apart.
That's why, from now on...
...Avoid getting close with Ichinose-senpai.
You haven't been mentioning Ren recently, Ninaka.
Is that so?
I'll go and wash these paintbrushes...
Somehow, today...
You feel out of spirit...
Did something happen?
Really? I feel just fine.
Kinoshita, if you're not fine...
It'll make me worry.
Thank you for your concern.
But I'm really just fine.
Oh, I'm glad.
You know...
How was your relationship with Ando...
...back in Junior high?
I...
I was always alone before.
And someone like me...
I only talk to people who wants to talk to me...
The one who talked to me was Ando.
But...
His words may have no special meaning...
...but I was really happy.
I see.
He was obviously very lonely but he pretended not to care.
...and saved me from that kind of situation.
If it weren't for him...
Talking about this with you...
Is actually the first time I told someone about this.
If it weren't you...
I wouldn't have said it.
Thank you for telling me.
I'll be going now.
I...
...like Kinoshita.
What should I do... to replace Ren's place in you?
How should I...
...make you love me too?
Ando...

Thank you!
We also prepared a welcome resting place. Come and visit us!
Thank you in advance.
4 classes are holding a haunted house.
Thank you in advance.
How does it look?
Rejected!
Really?!
I'm going ahead.
Go...
Thank you in advance.
You can have that.
It's hand made.
I have so much of it.
Thanks for your hardwork!
Oh, Daiki. I'm going out!
Okay!
Welcome to the Ghost Park.
We'll be shifting roles later, okay?
I already found someone to shift with.
Eehh? With whom?
What is this? Fried rice?
That's cute.
Hy, aren't you young?
Oh, a popcorn? Let's go.
Just accompany us already.
Why are you reluctant to go?
Excuse me? Will you like some fried rice?
Stop fooling around, idiot.
Then go ahead and eat your fried rice alone!
What loaded crap! Give her back to me!
Get out everyone! There's a crazy man out there!
Get out and see it for yourself!
No guests yet.
Hey...
I really think that...
...you aren't feeling fine, recently.
That's not true.
Then, I'll try yelling.
Our haunted house is now open!
Please come and take a look at it!
It's a haunted house.
It's a lot of fun!
Am I not enough?
I think you can rely on me a little.
Like... what you did for me too.
We have a haunted house.
Please come and play with u----
Are you okay?
Those guys...
Thank you for helping me.
It's not that much.
I'm so glad.
I thought a lot...
...about You...
And about Ren...
If I didn't run that time...
Perhaps nothing would have been lost.
I would have been glad if I tried a bit harder.
So right now I'm...
...seriously chasing after Ninako.
I'm leaving.
Wait!
I talked to Ninako-senpai.
I told her about how I ruined your friendship with Ichinose-senpai.
What?
I think she will stop coming too close with Ichinose-senpai.
So that's how much you are so fond of Re---
It's not.
The one I am inlove with... is you, Takumi.
What are you talking about?!
Have you already forgotten about what you done?! While you were with me...
...you were playing around wit---
That kiss...
It was I who forced that kiss on him.
Mao.
I know you could not forgive me.
But... Ichinose-senpai did nothing wrong.
If you knew I was not serious about my relationship with you...
...you will get more pain...
So I said nothing to you.
What's with that?
I regretted it.
After that, I finally understood your feelings for me.
So you always wanted to do something...
but I only... obstructed the friendship between you two.
And so...
I was doing what I could do to smooth out everything between you and Ninako-senpai.
I'm sorry...
You've been suffering, right?
Then, that's enough...
Having someone you like...
I can properly empathize with your pain.
That's enough.
The "After Night Festival" is about to begin.
We ask everyone to quickly gather at the playground set.
I repeat...
The "After Night Festival" is about to begin.
We ask everyone to quickly gather at the playground set.
Hey... What have I done?
Why are you hiding from me?
I'm not hiding from you...
Hey... but now...
You aren't even looking at me.
I love you, Kinoshita.
Your existence in me...
...is occupying position and it keeps on growing.
But I think trying to erase Mayuka outside...
...is what I deserve...
But further efforts I made...
...finally erased her from me.
I want you to go out with me.
I'm going home.
You still haven't responded to me.
Answer me.
Before you give me an answer, I won't let go of you.
I've had enough...
I also have a lot of trouble myself!
I'm sorry...
I won't force you to answer.
I won't even force you to still have something between us.
I was even anxious about what to do...
...and I only ended up making you feel uncomfortable.
I'm sorry.
Then we officially announce...
...the analog shop first prize winner...
The first prize winner is...
First year...
Class two.
I got dumped.
Why?
Why, you ask?
Isn't it because I'm not the person she wants?
Then, I guess its my turn to confess to her, now?
You're okay with this?!
First dance portion "Dance Battle" goes to the Hippop brothers.
That seat... Is Ren's seat.
I made a mistake.
Are you giving up on Ren?
What?
Did you pity me?
You already knew about everything from Mao.
Did you feel sympathy for me after losing to Ren?
It's not what you think about.
You can't even respond to my feelings...
What face will you be showing me now?
You and Ren really act alike...
Blindly forcing yourselves for the sake of others...
And indulge in their own doing...
That's just self-satisfaction, you know?
But you really have been doing it half-heartedly.
If you really think I'm pathetic...
Just go out with me already...
You are deliberately doing this on purpose...
You are deliberately doing these to make me hate you, right?
I... can't go to Ren's side.
What are you saying?
After being rejected by Ren...
I told him that I wanted to stay friends with him.
But this gave me more gradual pain.
And I started disliking the "ME" that slowly became greedy.
That's fine as it is.
Isn't loving a person all about happiness?
There's also pain... and the suffering.
I...
Never understood the true meaning of love.
In the end...
I was only protecting myself.
I'm sorry...
I let you suffer all these grief.
I'm sorry..
I won't be hypocritical anymore.
I... like Ren, after all...
So even if I end up hurting other people...
I would still like Ren.
Go.
If you run, you will surely catch him.
What a nice guy you are...
Shut up...
It's my turn now...
I'll go around you, fair and square.
The "me" now would not be that easy to get, you know?
It's okay.
In that way, you'll know how serious I am...
Hey!
What happened, Ninako?
I need to go!
Where to?
Be careful on the road!
FIGHTO!
Where is she going?
Stupid...
I'll pay for the damage..
What's your year and class?
It was interesting.
After talking to you...
I feel all cheered.
That song...
My mind also hummed the same melody.
\\Spend every day with a smile...//
\\I'll stand by your side to accompany you...//
\\The meaning of my existence...//
Tenth grade, class one's Kinoshita Ninako.
I won't throw it away...
It's okay, not trying your hardest at times...
The summer and autumn season's moisture are being mixed in the air.
I still think this song is really nice, isn't it?
This is the first part of it...
Yeah... It's good.
Right?
The door is about to close...
Note of safety...
You know what...
I have one thing...
...that I want you to hear me say...
I may not be able to say it properly...
...but I still hope you can hear me say it...
I'm sorry...
Slowly as you can...
I'll listen to what you want to say...
That time... hearing you say that liked me...
In fact, I was very happy.
But...
If I accept you...
Someone would be hurt...
But these are just excuses...
I... have been mistaking my method of effort...
Actually...
Actually, I...
...together with you...
...even if it's the small things...
I want to call you...
...send messages to you...
...have a date in a cafe with you...
..share cakes together with you...
But... I would eat more than you.
Then I would say that "It can't be helped..."
...and I'd give my share to you...
We'll walk side by side...
Even without words...
We would naturally hold up each other's hands...
Although I did say...
"I also have a lot of trouble..."
When in fact, I do not have any at all.
I have only one thing to tell you...
I...
...I like you, Ren!
I like you too, Kinoshita.
I really like you...
