1. Anybody who hasn't submitted
their club preference, do it soon.
Copy !req
2. Oh, and the handout you're getting now
is for tomorrow's home ec cooking class.
Copy !req
3. Make sure you read through it
so you're prepared.
Copy !req
4. My name is Nakamura Okuto.
Copy !req
5. I'm 15 years old, and I just
entered Hoshimi High this spring.
Copy !req
6. I'm a freshman.
Copy !req
7. And I'm head over heels in love.
Copy !req
8. Anybody not got the handout?
Copy !req
9. With my classmate...
Copy !req
10. Here.
Copy !req
11. Do you cook?
Copy !req
12. Hirose Aiki!
Copy !req
13. Go For It, Nakamura-kun!
Copy !req
14. Do you have your handkerchief?
Copy !req
15. Of course I do.
Copy !req
16. Opening Day
Ceremony
Copy !req
17. The first time I saw Hirose
was at the opening day ceremony.
Copy !req
18. I went to Middle School #1!
Copy !req
19. I went to #3!
Copy !req
20. Seriously? Do you know Yamada?
Copy !req
21. I sure do.
Copy !req
22. Then, let's add Yamada to our LINE group.
Copy !req
23. Look! We're in the same class!
Copy !req
24. Really?
Copy !req
25. Hooray!
Copy !req
26. We'll be together in high school, too!
Copy !req
27. Yup!
Copy !req
28. Welcome to our school, new students.
Copy !req
29. Entrance Ceremony
Copy !req
30. We're very glad to have you
joining us here at Hoshimi High.
Copy !req
31. I'm sure you're full of
both hopes and fears right now.
Copy !req
32. But don't worry. Hoshimi High is...
Copy !req
33. Light, curly, chestnut hair.
Copy !req
34. Big, round, gleaming eyes.
Copy !req
35. Slightly tanned skin.
Copy !req
36. That's how it works, right?
Copy !req
37. Expressions that change every second.
Copy !req
38. And more than anything else...
Copy !req
39. That wonderful smile!
Copy !req
40. It was a shock like I'd never had before.
Copy !req
41. Love at first sight.
Copy !req
42. It's been a month since then.
Copy !req
43. I need your parents' PTA attendance
check sheets back by tomorrow.
Copy !req
44. Forget making actual progress...
Copy !req
45. Make sure you hand them in.
Copy !req
46. Okay!
Copy !req
47. we're not even friends yet.
Copy !req
48. In fact, we haven't even spoken
to each other yet!
Copy !req
49. I've been waiting for a chance
to talk to him since that first day.
Copy !req
50. But I haven't even gotten
a chance to look him in the eye.
Copy !req
51. But I can't take it anymore.
Copy !req
52. That's all for today. Who's on day duty?
Copy !req
53. Stand.
Copy !req
54. Today, I'll definitely talk to Hirose.
Copy !req
55. Bow.
Copy !req
56. I'll become his friend.
Copy !req
57. Hirose, let's go home.
Copy !req
58. Sorry, one second.
Copy !req
59. You're stuck after again?
Copy !req
60. I forgot yesterday's homework.
Copy !req
61. Don't worry. It'll be fine.
Copy !req
62. I've simulated every
Copy !req
63. possible conversation in my head
since the first day of school.
Copy !req
64. You do your homework?
Copy !req
65. Of course I do.
Copy !req
66. It'll be perfect.
Copy !req
67. Hello, Hirose-kun.
Copy !req
68. How are you this fine day?
Copy !req
69. Oh, Nakamura-kun.
Copy !req
70. Hirose-kun, why don't we go
to a fancy café together?
Copy !req
71. Wonderful idea! Let's go!
Copy !req
72. See? Perfect.
Copy !req
73. O-Okay.
Copy !req
74. I've done this in my head
a thousand times.
Copy !req
75. Farewell, days of doing this in my head!
Copy !req
76. Time to do it for real.
Copy !req
77. Hi—
Copy !req
78. A-An eraser?
Copy !req
79. A-At times like this,
you should, um, uh...
Copy !req
80. Wait, what am I so scared of?
Copy !req
81. It's not that different than
what I had in my head.
Copy !req
82. Why don't we go
to a fancy café
together?
Copy !req
83. You
dropped
your
eraser
Copy !req
84. What a wonderful idea!
Copy !req
85. Let's go!
Copy !req
86. You dropped your eraser.
Copy !req
87. Thank you, Nakamura.
Copy !req
88. Thank you,
Nakamura
Copy !req
89. I'm not inviting him out on a date.
Copy !req
90. I'm just asking
if he wants to go to a café.
Copy !req
91. Even the neighborhood cat could do that!
Copy !req
92. Neighborhood Cat
Let's go to a fancy café
together, meow!
Copy !req
93. Let's go to a fancy café together, meow!
Copy !req
94. Hey, we're leaving without you.
Copy !req
95. Sorry. Just a little longer.
Copy !req
96. I mean it. I won't be long.
Copy !req
97. Okay, we'll wait outside.
Copy !req
98. If I don't hurry, he'll leave.
Copy !req
99. Okay. Thanks.
Copy !req
100. Softly. Naturally. Normally.
Like it's ordinary.
Copy !req
101. Done!
Copy !req
102. I-I can't do it.
Copy !req
103. When I see Hirose's face,
my head goes blank.
Copy !req
104. B-But...
Copy !req
105. Our eyes met for the first time.
Copy !req
106. H-He was so cute.
Copy !req
107. I'll have to give up for today.
Copy !req
108. Hirose didn't notice.
Copy !req
109. Hirose-kun.
Copy !req
110. Your handkerchief. You dropped it.
Copy !req
111. Thank you, Nakamura.
Copy !req
112. You always seem to stay after class.
Copy !req
113. If you want, I'll help you
with your homework sometime.
Copy !req
114. Seriously?
Copy !req
115. That'd be great!
Copy !req
116. This is it!
Copy !req
117. Divine inspiration! It's a natural
starting point for a relationship,
Copy !req
118. and it'll make him like me more!
Copy !req
119. This is the most brilliant
idea I've ever had.
Copy !req
120. I'll go pick it up.
Copy !req
121. Oh, Hirose-kun!
Copy !req
122. Your handkerchief.
Copy !req
123. I-I have to hurry.
Copy !req
124. I won't let you!
Copy !req
125. Y-You dropped this, Hirose.
Copy !req
126. Wh-Why did you step on it?
Copy !req
127. I screwed up!
Copy !req
128. I just know he hates me now!
Copy !req
129. Icchan, why did I do that?
Copy !req
130. I should've just handed it over normally.
Copy !req
131. I can't even talk to him.
I'll never be friends with him.
Copy !req
132. Icchan.
Copy !req
133. You're right.
Copy !req
134. It's too soon to give up.
Copy !req
135. My high school life has just started.
Copy !req
136. I'll have more opportunities
to talk to him.
Copy !req
137. Okay. Just you watch, Icchan.
Copy !req
138. I'll become friends with him!
Copy !req
139. Shut up, you idiot of a brother!
Copy !req
140. Super Exciting Cooking Class!
Copy !req
141. Did you bring your ingredients
like you were supposed to, everyone?
Copy !req
142. Today, we'll be making cucumber salad,
miso soup, and grilled fish.
Copy !req
143. Do you ever cook?
Copy !req
144. No, never.
Copy !req
145. I've got the fish and other items
that could spoil here,
Copy !req
146. so each group should send
someone to get them.
Copy !req
147. Where'd Hirose go?
Copy !req
148. No idea.
Copy !req
149. Want to LINE him?
Copy !req
150. It's not showing as read.
Copy !req
151. He was supposed to bring the miso.
We can't make it now.
Copy !req
152. I wonder what's happened to Hirose.
Copy !req
153. Oh, there he is.
Copy !req
154. Sorry I'm late!
Copy !req
155. Hirose's so handsome when he's all sweaty.
Copy !req
156. You're late.
Copy !req
157. I went back to grab my apron.
Copy !req
158. We were on the verge of having
steamed tofu instead of miso soup.
Copy !req
159. Delicious Miso With Broth
Copy !req
160. Okay.
Copy !req
161. Apron!
Copy !req
162. This is great. Chef's kiss!
Copy !req
163. He's so cute in his apron!
Copy !req
164. Okay, time to get started.
Copy !req
165. Thank you for letting me see this,
God of Home Ec!
Copy !req
166. Is this what he'll be like as a newlywed?
Copy !req
167. Morning, Nakamura.
Copy !req
168. Here's your coffee.
Copy !req
169. Thank you. It smells good.
Copy !req
170. I'll make a cup for you next time.
Copy !req
171. Okay.
Copy !req
172. Want toast today? Or rice?
Copy !req
173. I think I'll have you first, Hirose.
Copy !req
174. That's not funny.
Copy !req
175. U-U-Uh-oh. Hirose's apron
sent me to fantasy land.
Copy !req
176. Can you chop this for me?
Copy !req
177. I swore it to Icchan last night, right?
Copy !req
178. Hey, are you listening?
Copy !req
179. I swore that during today's home ec,
Copy !req
180. I would talk to him.
Copy !req
181. I said that, but...
Copy !req
182. Achoo!
Copy !req
183. Pepper
Copy !req
184. Pepper
Copy !req
185. Pepper
Copy !req
186. Pepper
Copy !req
187. Pepper
Copy !req
188. Pepper
Copy !req
189. Pepper
Copy !req
190. Pepper
Copy !req
191. Hot!
Copy !req
192. I'll chop the carrots.
Copy !req
193. I haven't talked to him at all.
Copy !req
194. Then, I'll wash the rice.
Copy !req
195. In fact, I'm just slowing everybody down.
Copy !req
196. And anyway...
Copy !req
197. With those guys next to him all the time,
it's even harder to go say hi.
Copy !req
198. Those Guys #1
Copy !req
199. Those Guys #2
Copy !req
200. I want to have fun talking to him
while we cook, too.
Copy !req
201. Be sure not to burn yourself
when using the cooktop.
Copy !req
202. Ma'am, may I have a word?
Copy !req
203. Yes, what is it?
Copy !req
204. Everyone, stop for a second.
Copy !req
205. I need to step out, so do stuff
that doesn't require fire or knives.
Copy !req
206. Huh? What are we supposed to do?
Copy !req
207. We can't do anything
without fire or knives.
Copy !req
208. Want to measure out the seasonings first?
Copy !req
209. Yeah, that's a good idea.
Um, I think they're over here.
Copy !req
210. Then what?
Copy !req
211. I don't know, but let's just do it.
Copy !req
212. Hirose-kun, do you know where
the measuring cup that was here went?
Copy !req
213. Huh? It's not over there?
Copy !req
214. Huh?
Copy !req
215. I'll go grab another one.
Copy !req
216. Th-Thanks.
Copy !req
217. Hmm, measuring cup, measuring cup.
Copy !req
218. E-Everybody, look!
Copy !req
219. What's wrong?
Copy !req
220. What's up?
Copy !req
221. What is it?
Copy !req
222. O-Octopuses? Why?
Copy !req
223. And they're alive.
Copy !req
224. Seriously? Why?
Copy !req
225. O-Octopuses! So cute.
Copy !req
226. Were we cooking octopus today?
Copy !req
227. I don't think so.
M-Maybe in the cucumber salad?
Copy !req
228. Aw, so cute. The way those suckers
are lined up means they're female, right?
Copy !req
229. Shouldn't we call the teacher?
Copy !req
230. My Icchan's very handsome,
but these are all beauties, too.
Copy !req
231. Hey, somebody touch them.
Copy !req
232. Nope, no way. Nuh-uh.
Copy !req
233. Octopuses freak me out. They're alive.
Copy !req
234. I could never touch one. Ew.
Copy !req
235. Huh?
Copy !req
236. You seriously can't see how cute they are?
Copy !req
237. They're not creepy at all.
Copy !req
238. Right?
Copy !req
239. Come here, Mrs. Octopus.
Copy !req
240. The common octopus is smart, and strong,
and the moms love their kids.
Copy !req
241. Well, the average person can't
comprehend their awesomeness. Yup.
Copy !req
242. But maybe I've totally freaked out Hirose.
Copy !req
243. I-I messed up just yesterday
by stepping on his handkerchief...
Copy !req
244. He's staring!
Copy !req
245. Wah!
Copy !req
246. What should I do? Am I freaking him out?
Copy !req
247. I-I-I didn't mean to.
Copy !req
248. Wow, they're all slippery.
Copy !req
249. Wow.
Copy !req
250. It doesn't bother you?
Copy !req
251. Nah, it's fine.
Copy !req
252. You're amazing, Hirose-kun.
Copy !req
253. They're actually pretty cute,
now that I look closely. Right?
Copy !req
254. Hirose...
Copy !req
255. Th-They're surprisingly calm.
Copy !req
256. likes octopuses.
Copy !req
257. Right? It's sucking at my skin. So cool.
Copy !req
258. He accepts them...
Copy !req
259. But we're gonna cook 'em
after this, right?
Copy !req
260. Huh? I can't do that.
Copy !req
261. They seem cute now.
Copy !req
262. I'd feel bad.
Copy !req
263. Hypocrites. You were just talking
about how creepy they were.
Copy !req
264. But now you feel bad for them?
Copy !req
265. Your love for animals is so selfish.
Copy !req
266. That's right.
Copy !req
267. We're taking the lives of these octopuses
'cause we need food to live.
Copy !req
268. I-I'm not scared of that at all.
Copy !req
269. I-I-If anything, I'm happy.
Copy !req
270. Yeah, I do feel bad about eating them.
Copy !req
271. Hirose is right.
Copy !req
272. Okay, let's help them escape.
Copy !req
273. E-E-Escape? H-Huh?
Copy !req
274. Seriously?
Copy !req
275. Sh-Should we find a store
that sells tropical fish?
Copy !req
276. We just have to hide them
until after school.
Copy !req
277. But they'll dry out
if we just leave them somewhere.
Copy !req
278. Oh, you're right.
Copy !req
279. Okay. There we go.
Copy !req
280. Let's put some water in there.
Copy !req
281. No! No! No! No!
Copy !req
282. Freshwater will kill them!
Copy !req
283. I didn't know that. Thanks.
Copy !req
284. Um, well...
Copy !req
285. Crap. I overstepped.
Copy !req
286. I bet he's thinking,
"Who does this guy think he is?"
Copy !req
287. Sorry, guys.
Copy !req
288. Can't we just make saltwater?
We've got salt.
Copy !req
289. Ah!
Copy !req
290. Nah, I bet we need the real stuff.
Copy !req
291. What do we do?
Copy !req
292. We need to hurry
or the teacher will be back.
Copy !req
293. This class is
about learning
to take other
creatures' lives
Copy !req
294. And then...
Copy !req
295. Now hurry up
and chop 'em up
Copy !req
296. This class is about learning
to take other creatures' lives.
Copy !req
297. Now hurry up and chop 'em up.
Copy !req
298. W-We'll just have to hide 'em.
Copy !req
299. But where?
Copy !req
300. What do we tell the teacher?
Copy !req
301. We'll say they ran off.
Copy !req
302. Hello all.
Copy !req
303. What are you guys doing?
Copy !req
304. Oh, uh, n-nothing!
Copy !req
305. Wh-What are you doing here?
Copy !req
306. Suzuki-sensei, the biology teacher,
asked me for a favor.
Copy !req
307. You know I can see them, right?
Copy !req
308. Oh, I see.
Copy !req
309. So they were for observing in class, huh?
Copy !req
310. I guess they ran away,
so I was helping with the search.
Copy !req
311. It's incredible they
made it all the way here.
Copy !req
312. Sorry for interrupting. Have fun.
Copy !req
313. Oh, hello.
Copy !req
314. Hello.
Copy !req
315. Sorry for keeping you waiting!
Copy !req
316. One left, huh?
Copy !req
317. Wow. It looks delicious.
Copy !req
318. Seems fine to me.
Copy !req
319. In the end, I'm just no good.
Copy !req
320. I got to talk to Hirose, but still...
Copy !req
321. Hey.
Copy !req
322. H-Hirose?
Copy !req
323. What are you doing here in the corner?
Copy !req
324. Um, uh, well...
Copy !req
325. S-S-S-S-Sorry about b-b-b-before.
Copy !req
326. Why are you apologizing?
Copy !req
327. Those octopuses survived, thanks to you.
Copy !req
328. Thanks.
Copy !req
329. I touched an octopus for the first time.
Copy !req
330. It's kind of addictive.
Copy !req
331. Y-Yeah.
Copy !req
332. Huh?
Copy !req
333. The way you can feel 'em sucking
onto your skin was neat.
Copy !req
334. See? It left marks.
Copy !req
335. A-Are you okay?
Copy !req
336. Yeah, I'm fine.
Copy !req
337. I'm talking to Hirose?
Copy !req
338. Hey, you've got some, too.
Copy !req
339. O-Oh, you're right.
Copy !req
340. I-It's now or never!
Copy !req
341. Oh, here, too.
Copy !req
342. U-Um...
Copy !req
343. W-W-Would you... you... b-b-be...
Copy !req
344. my friend...
Copy !req
345. What are you doing?
You need to get back.
Copy !req
346. There was still one octopus here.
I'll take it to Suzuki-sensei.
Copy !req
347. O-Okay.
Copy !req
348. Were you about to say something?
Copy !req
349. N-N-No! Nothing at all!
Copy !req
350. No?
Copy !req
351. Your face is all black!
Copy !req
352. Why did this happen?
Copy !req
353. You sure do have bad luck.
Copy !req
354. I looked so lame.
Copy !req
355. I didn't get to ask him to be my friend.
Copy !req
356. But...
Copy !req
357. He seems to be enjoying
himself, so it's okay.
Copy !req
358. Octopuses are incredible.
Copy !req
359. My name is Nakamura Okuto.
Copy !req
360. I'm just an ordinary high school student.
Copy !req
361. And...
Copy !req
362. I'm shy, gay, and in love
with Hirose Aiki.
Copy !req
