1. "29th Annual Kaibara High School
Culture Festival"
Copy !req
2. See? This place!
Copy !req
3. Those look so good!
Copy !req
4. Thank you for your business!
Copy !req
5. "Rice Balls"
Copy !req
6. These are selling like crazy!
Copy !req
7. Rice balls are easy finger food.
Copy !req
8. And we're Japanese!
Copy !req
9. It's thanks to you for making
such good ones, Honda-san.
Copy !req
10. N-No, you're giving me too much credit!
Copy !req
11. And the cat ones are cute!
Copy !req
12. Is this cannibalism?
Copy !req
13. But the biggest contributor
to our class's sales has been...
Copy !req
14. "Fruits Basket"
Copy !req
15. Could you not take photos
without permission?
Copy !req
16. Yuki clearly doesn't like it!
Copy !req
17. That's right.
Copy !req
18. "It'll be your present to us!
The best memory of our three years in school!
Please, please, please!"
Copy !req
19. Soma-kun crumbled in the face
of the older students' pleas
Copy !req
20. and agreed to dress as a girl
for the duration of the festival.
Copy !req
21. Boys, girls, and even some teachers
have been coming by to get a look at him,
Copy !req
22. and incidentally increasing
the sales of our rice balls.
Copy !req
23. Do you think I made him angry somehow?
Copy !req
24. Nah, just ignore him.
Copy !req
25. He's got a huge complex about his girly face.
Copy !req
26. H-How can I rectify this?
Copy !req
27. I've been silently thinking "He's so cute!"
Copy !req
28. Don't sweat it. That could happen to anyone.
Copy !req
29. Right? He looks exactly like a girl.
Copy !req
30. Du lieber Himmel!
Copy !req
31. You look like ein Mädchen!
Copy !req
32. What the heck?
Copy !req
33. It's him!
Copy !req
34. What's he doing here?
Copy !req
35. Hmm? Do you know him, Kyo-kun?
Copy !req
36. Momiji.
Copy !req
37. Don't wander off on your own.
Copy !req
38. Hi, Harry!
Copy !req
39. Hi, Yuki. You look well.
Copy !req
40. You, too, Kyo.
Copy !req
41. —Are you acquaintances of Yuki's?
—So cute!
—So cool!
Copy !req
42. Guten Tag. I'm Momiji Soma.
I'm half-Japanese and half-German!
Copy !req
43. And this is Hatori Soma.
Copy !req
44. We're related to Yuki and Kyo!
Copy !req
45. Are they really?
Copy !req
46. Yeah...
Copy !req
47. What a lucky meeting!
Could they be zodiac members, too?
Copy !req
48. With that out of the way—
Yuki, when did you become a girl?
Copy !req
49. You've seen me naked dozens of times
and you can say that with a straight face?
Copy !req
50. Yuki-kun, does he mean...?
Copy !req
51. No.
Copy !req
52. Now take a deep breath.
Copy !req
53. He's a doctor.
Copy !req
54. You don't have to examine me here.
Copy !req
55. I do, because you broke your promise
to come in once a month for a checkup.
Copy !req
56. Soma-kun, are you ill?
Copy !req
57. Yuki has bronchial problems.
Copy !req
58. He had frequent attacks when he was young.
Copy !req
59. Are you Tohru Honda?
Copy !req
60. Yes! Pleased to meet you.
Copy !req
61. I see.
Copy !req
62. You really are a normal girl.
Copy !req
63. Hatori!
Copy !req
64. You shouldn't climb up on the sign!
Copy !req
65. —Was?
—What are you doing, you idiot?
Copy !req
66. Oh, no! I-I'll be right back.
Copy !req
67. Why are you here?
Copy !req
68. Take your complaints up with Momiji.
Copy !req
69. He brought over a festival flyer,
and then Akito wanted to come.
Copy !req
70. —Momiji-kun, that's dangerous!
—Akito has a 39° fever,
Copy !req
71. —Come back down, okay?
—so I used my doctor veto,
Copy !req
72. —Get your butt down here now!
—but I ended up having to come in exchange.
Copy !req
73. Relax. I didn't come to do
anything to Tohru Honda.
Copy !req
74. I'll tell you one thing, though:
Copy !req
75. The threatening look isn't effective
while you're in that outfit.
Copy !req
76. Keep your opinions to yourself.
Copy !req
77. You're such a moron!
Copy !req
78. Is it just me, or has
Tohru been acting funny?
Copy !req
79. She's too friendly with the prince
and Carrots, or something.
Copy !req
80. Yes, I'm a bit concerned.
Copy !req
81. From a wave standpoint, too.
Copy !req
82. Owie!
Copy !req
83. You sit here and be good!
Copy !req
84. Kyo hit me!
Copy !req
85. Kyo-kun!
Copy !req
86. Oh, it's Tohru!
Copy !req
87. How are you? I came to see you!
Copy !req
88. Good afternoon. You're in the
Soma family, then?
Copy !req
89. Ja! Fate brought us together that day, huh?
Copy !req
90. You two have met?
Copy !req
91. Yep, at Papa's building!
Copy !req
92. That's Papa's building,
and my hangout! He's the CEO!
Copy !req
93. What? He is?
Copy !req
94. Hey, you know the zodiac secret, right?
Copy !req
95. Y-Yes...
Copy !req
96. Yay! That means it's okay if I glomp you!
Copy !req
97. Hold it, Romeo. Remember where you are.
Copy !req
98. Keeping Tohru all to yourself
just because you like her?
Copy !req
99. I bet you hug her every day!
Copy !req
100. As if I'd do that!
Copy !req
101. Gotcha!
Copy !req
102. D-Did something just explode?
Copy !req
103. Hey, what happened?
Copy !req
104. Tohru?
Copy !req
105. Where did that bunny come from?
Copy !req
106. Whoa, these are Momiji-kun's clothes!
Copy !req
107. That's weird! Where would
he go without his clothes?
Copy !req
108. "Weird"?
Copy !req
109. In that case, I'm weird, too.
Copy !req
110. Wearing these clothes when I'm a boy...
Copy !req
111. —Shut up, you're perfect!
—That's right, you look wonderful!
Copy !req
112. —You're totally passing for a girl!
—Have confidence!
Copy !req
113. Thanks.
Copy !req
114. Thank you, Soma-kun!
Copy !req
115. That was a brilliant diversionary tactic,
and at great sacrifice!
Copy !req
116. You damn brat! Do you even
get what you've done?
Copy !req
117. I'm scared, Tohru!
Copy !req
118. So you're the Rabbit.
Copy !req
119. I can't believe this. It's a good thing
Yuki distracted everyone.
Copy !req
120. For all he complains,
I guess he likes his girly—
Copy !req
121. Shall I give you an even higher flight?
Copy !req
122. You damn rat!
Copy !req
123. Ah.
Copy !req
124. I almost forgot something important.
Copy !req
125. Yuki, Kyo, line up right there.
Copy !req
126. What?
Copy !req
127. Do it.
Copy !req
128. What's this about?
Copy !req
129. Fill in the blank:
Copy !req
130. "Macaroni and..."
Copy !req
131. Cheese.
Copy !req
132. Akito told me to bring back a photo.
Copy !req
133. See you.
Copy !req
134. Bis bald!
Copy !req
135. Hatori! Get back here!
Copy !req
136. This is the worst.
Copy !req
137. Who knows what Akito will say to me
after seeing that photo.
Copy !req
138. Wah! Y-You'll catch cold!
Copy !req
139. Staying dressed like this
makes me feel worse.
Copy !req
140. E-Everyone enjoyed it so much, though...
Copy !req
141. Boys don't like being called "cute."
Copy !req
142. I'm sorry. I thought you were cute, too.
Copy !req
143. I didn't want you to see me
looking so pathetic, either.
Copy !req
144. U-Um...
Copy !req
145. When my mother called me cute,
it made me happy.
Copy !req
146. —Because it meant "I love you."
—You're so cute!
Copy !req
147. It was a form of love. Mom... Mom...
Copy !req
148. I'll never get to hear her
say that again, but...
Copy !req
149. That's why I think they all meant
that they like you, and... um...
Copy !req
150. Wait, I'm not helping, am I?
Copy !req
151. You know, it's funny...
When you say that, I kind of feel better.
Copy !req
152. I guess I'll give the upperclassmen
a little more fan service, then.
Copy !req
153. But first...
Copy !req
154. Can you take this off for me?
There's a button caught in my hair.
Copy !req
155. Sure.
Copy !req
156. This dress looks hard to put on and take off.
Copy !req
157. I think it would look good on you, Honda.
Copy !req
158. It wouldn't at all. But I do wish it would—
it's like a princess dress.
Copy !req
159. You'd be cute.
Copy !req
160. I know you'd look cuter than I do.
Copy !req
161. Much cuter.
Copy !req
162. Thank you.
Copy !req
163. Shall we go back to the classroom?
Copy !req
164. I-I'm so shocked and touched and confused,
my heart's going to beat right out of my chest!
Copy !req
165. That's right, more than "cute"
or "beautiful"... Soma-kun
Copy !req
166. Let's go.
Copy !req
167. is "cool."
Copy !req
168. By the way, Honda-san.
Copy !req
169. Y-Yes?
Copy !req
170. If you ever see Hatori again,
it's best to avoid being alone with him.
Copy !req
171. Hmm? Why is that?
Copy !req
172. Remember how I told you
that I got found out once?
Copy !req
173. Hatori was the one who
suppressed everyone's memories.
Copy !req
174. Oi, Tohru.
Copy !req
175. Uo-chan, Hana-chan!
Copy !req
176. I'll head back to the classroom.
Copy !req
177. What's wrong?
Copy !req
178. Are you hiding something about
the prince from us?
Copy !req
179. Are you perhaps dating Yuki Soma?
Copy !req
180. No! I just live with him, that's all!
Copy !req
181. Could you explain that?
Copy !req
182. I'm sorry I didn't tell you before!
Copy !req
183. But I'm all right now. They're all
very good people. Please don't worry.
Copy !req
184. I believe "bolt from the blue"
is the appropriate expression here.
Copy !req
185. I did notice how strangely talkative
you've been with the prince and Carrots...
Copy !req
186. So that's why.
Copy !req
187. Perhaps we should invite ourselves over.
Copy !req
188. What?
Copy !req
189. I'd like to personally confirm whether
it's an appropriate environment for you.
Copy !req
190. Great idea, Hanajima! Let's go right now!
Copy !req
191. Wait. If they don't expect us,
they may not have snacks on hand.
Copy !req
192. Okay, fair point, but I'm worried here.
Copy !req
193. Agreed. Luckily, it's a
school holiday tomorrow.
Copy !req
194. —U-Um...
—Let's sleep over tonight.
Copy !req
195. "Strike while the iron is hot," as they say.
Copy !req
196. Huh?
Copy !req
197. It'll be fine! We'll go home and get ready first,
and we won't cause any trouble.
Copy !req
198. Yo.
Copy !req
199. Good evening.
Copy !req
200. Hello! Glad you came.
Copy !req
201. I'm sorry this happened so suddenly.
Copy !req
202. Nah, it's fine.
Copy !req
203. Hey.
Copy !req
204. Are you sure about this?
Copy !req
205. Word on the street is to never
underestimate Wave Girl.
Copy !req
206. Que será, será! It'll work out.
Copy !req
207. —You're such a worrier.
—A dog...
Copy !req
208. is here.
Copy !req
209. Huh? W-Well, look at that!
Copy !req
210. Bad boy, you can't come in!
Copy !req
211. Here.
Copy !req
212. Thanks.
Copy !req
213. Hey, you. Your name is "Shigure," right?
What's your job?
Copy !req
214. Me? I'm a writer. A novelist.
Copy !req
215. You're a novelist?
Copy !req
216. Why are you shocked?
Copy !req
217. You didn't know, did you?
Copy !req
218. You said it was "high literature," right?
Copy !req
219. Yep, that's right.
Copy !req
220. "Summer Sigh"
Copy !req
221. Stories like this.
Copy !req
222. Oops! Sorry, wrong book.
Copy !req
223. "Palpitations"
Copy !req
224. This one! This is the real one.
Copy !req
225. "Summer Sigh"
"Palpitations"
Copy !req
226. I just wrote this one for fun.
Copy !req
227. So the fact remains that you wrote it!
Copy !req
228. But authors are so impressive!
I never dreamed I might personally know one!
Copy !req
229. "Impressed"
Copy !req
230. I know, right?
Copy !req
231. Honda-san, he'll get a big head
if you praise him too much.
Copy !req
232. Shigure's already got a big head 24/7.
Copy !req
233. Oh, I just thought of something fun!
Copy !req
234. Wait just a minute.
Copy !req
235. Well, I need to go out for a while,
so you'll have to excuse me.
Copy !req
236. You young people enjoy yourselves.
Copy !req
237. It looks like Tohru is fitting in
pretty well here.
Copy !req
238. I'm glad for that...
Copy !req
239. and I know she only
kept it from us so we wouldn't worry...
Copy !req
240. But...
Copy !req
241. We swore to her that we'd help her
if her back was ever against the wall.
Copy !req
242. Maybe that sounds over-dramatic to you,
Copy !req
243. but the thing is, Tohru was
the first friend we ever had.
Copy !req
244. And she saved us, in a lot of ways.
Copy !req
245. So I hate that we couldn't
help her this time.
Copy !req
246. It's like, Tohru does all the work and
she can't count on us for anything...
Copy !req
247. Like, are we worth being friends with?
Copy !req
248. You know she's not the kind of girl
who sweats stuff like that.
Copy !req
249. Honda-san isn't the type to ask for the moon.
Copy !req
250. Sorry for the wait! Let's get started.
Copy !req
251. Rich Man-Poor Man!
Copy !req
252. That's a great idea, Tohru-kun.
Copy !req
253. Nice! I'll make a sucker
out of Carrots again.
Copy !req
254. I'll show you. And if I win,
you better dye your hair black!
Copy !req
255. —Fine, then if you lose,
you bleach your hair till it's white.
Copy !req
256. —Will you cut the cards for us?
—Fine, then if you lose,
you bleach your hair till it's white.
Copy !req
257. This is my natural color, you fake blonde!
Copy !req
258. —Natural color? Where do you
get off having hair like that?
Copy !req
259. —S-Sure.
—Natural color? Where do you
get off having hair like that?
Copy !req
260. Fight me!
Copy !req
261. How are you feeling?
Copy !req
262. Yuki and Kyo have started
getting happier since Tohru-kun came.
Copy !req
263. I hope things continue
in a positive direction.
Copy !req
264. I assume your real goal is for this to fail,
Copy !req
265. but you're out of luck...
Copy !req
266. because Tohru-kun is
a far better person than you are.
Copy !req
267. I already know I always ask for the moon.
Copy !req
268. Ugh, I yelled too much. Now my throat hurts.
Copy !req
269. I ended up the poor man today.
Copy !req
270. This is a very nice bed.
Copy !req
271. Shigure-san bought it for me!
Copy !req
272. What is he, a doting grandpa
with his first granddaughter?
Copy !req
273. Huh? Hey, Tohru, you still have this hat?
Copy !req
274. Yes! It's an important memento.
Copy !req
275. Oh? Is there a story behind it?
Copy !req
276. Oh, that's right—
I never told Hana-chan, did I?
Copy !req
277. When I was in elementary school,
the boys bullied me a lot.
Copy !req
278. One day, they were chasing me around,
Copy !req
279. and I was so scared as I ran
that I lost track of where I was.
Copy !req
280. I hid because I was afraid
they'd find me, and I started crying.
Copy !req
281. That's when I saw a boy
standing there, wearing this hat.
Copy !req
282. He stood and stared at me for a while,
but then he suddenly ran off...
Copy !req
283. Without even thinking about it,
I chased after him.
Copy !req
284. Please, wait! Please don't leave
me alone! I want to go home!
Copy !req
285. I almost lost sight of him so many times...
Copy !req
286. but each time he waited for me...
Copy !req
287. He was a mysterious boy.
Copy !req
288. I found myself in front of my apartment.
Copy !req
289. That's a wonderful memory.
Copy !req
290. If the two of you met again
years later and fell in love,
Copy !req
291. that would be even better.
Copy !req
292. We never did.
Copy !req
293. Hey, it's a small world. You still might.
Copy !req
294. That's true. If I do meet him again,
I'd at least like to thank him.
Copy !req
295. He may have forgotten
all about it by now, though.
Copy !req
296. But looking back...
Copy !req
297. Maybe that boy was my first love.
Copy !req
298. You've had it rough
since you were little, huh?
Copy !req
299. No, not at all!
Copy !req
300. I recently learned just how lucky I am.
Copy !req
301. I get to live with the Somas,
I had a loving mother,
Copy !req
302. and I have two wonderful friends
named Hana-chan and Uo-chan.
Copy !req
303. I can't tell you how much it means to me
that you're always by my side.
Copy !req
304. It would be a sin if I weren't
properly grateful for that.
Copy !req
305. I love you two.
Copy !req
306. You know she's not the kind of girl
who sweats stuff like that.
Copy !req
307. Honda-san isn't the type to ask for the moon.
Copy !req
308. All right, let's go to sleep.
Copy !req
309. They really do get her.
Copy !req
310. Huh?
Copy !req
311. Yes. That's who Tohru-kun is.
Copy !req
312. That ability to appreciate
what you have in the moment,
Copy !req
313. instead of always wanting more...
Copy !req
314. And incomparable friendship.
Copy !req
315. Yep.
Copy !req
316. Yes!
Copy !req
317. Oi. I've told you before:
don't drink straight from the carton.
Copy !req
318. —Oh, good morning.
—Lay off, you snide rat—
Copy !req
319. That was the last carton.
Go buy more for all of us.
Copy !req
320. You jerk!
Copy !req
321. Today's the day we settle this. Bring it—
Copy !req
322. A cat and a rat...
Copy !req
323. —That's what they're like.
—Uo-chan, Hana-chan!
Copy !req
324. G-G-Good morning!
Copy !req
325. Why do you say that?
Copy !req
326. —There's a cartoon about cat and a rat
who are always fighting, remember?
Copy !req
327. —That's right. I forgot they were here.
Copy !req
328. Still, this seems like a fun household.
Copy !req
329. Good. I'd decided that if it were
a bad environment for Tohru-kun,
Copy !req
330. I'd do all sorts of things to you.
Copy !req
331. When you say "things"...
Copy !req
332. What things?
Copy !req
333. You two both...
Copy !req
334. have quite good waves.
Copy !req
335. Huh?
Copy !req
336. Oh, you don't realize? That's good, too.
Copy !req
337. Well, we're counting on you...
Copy !req
338. to look after her.
Copy !req
339. Uo-chan! Hana-chan!
Copy !req
340. —Thank you so much!
—That was kinda like...
Copy !req
341. —Thank you so much!
—... giving away a bride.
Copy !req
342. Let's have breakfast.
Copy !req
343. We'll come visit again soon.
Copy !req
344. Yes. I'd like to investigate
the Soma family's strange waves.
Copy !req
345. —Whoa, whoa, you've gotta be kidding!
Copy !req
346. —Um!
—Whoa, whoa, you've gotta be kidding!
Copy !req
347. I promise to be very careful
about you-know-what.
Copy !req
348. But they're both really,
really good people! So...
Copy !req
349. Fine, have it your way.
Copy !req
350. They're your friends, after all.
Copy !req
351. Hello?
Copy !req
352. Is this Tohru Honda?
Copy !req
353. Y-Yes. May I ask who—
Copy !req
354. Hatori Soma.
Copy !req
355. We met yesterday at the festival.
Copy !req
356. I'll cut to the chase: Come to the Soma estate
on your next day off school.
Copy !req
357. Pardon?
Copy !req
358. I have something important
to talk to you about.
Copy !req
359. Tell no one about this.
Copy !req
360. Hatori was the one who
suppressed everyone's memories.
Copy !req
361. O-Oh, no! But Mom told me not
to doubt people without cause...
Copy !req
362. I trust you know what
will happen if you don't show up.
Copy !req
363. I-I will.
Copy !req
364. Good.
Copy !req
365. And who knows,
you may even get to meet Akito.
Copy !req
366. "Spring Comes"
Copy !req
367. Spring comes.
Copy !req
