41. The melody...
Copy !req
42. koi mitai da
Copy !req
43. is like love.
Copy !req
44. I don't like any of this.
Copy !req
45. This sun beating down on you from the moment you wake up...
Copy !req
46. These students without a thought in their heads...
Copy !req
47. And having to hike up this steep slope from now on just to get to school...
Copy !req
48. It all makes me want to throw up.
Copy !req
49. NISHIMI KAORU
Copy !req
50. Joining us today, all the way from Yokosura, is Nishimi Kaoru-kun.
Copy !req
51. NISHIMI KAORU
Copy !req
52. It seems he was the top of his class at his previous school.
Copy !req
53. I hope all of you study just as hard as him.
Copy !req
54. NISHIMI KAORU
Copy !req
55. I'm Nishimi. Nice to meet you.
Copy !req
56. Yokosuka?
Copy !req
57. Isn't that pretty far?
Copy !req
58. I'm used to this routine. But...
Copy !req
59. He looks like a real bookworm...
Copy !req
60. Spoiled rich kid...
Copy !req
61. Their unreserved stares...
Copy !req
62. Their Kyushu dialect that I can't even follow...
Copy !req
63. This is the most memorable welcome I've received yet.
Copy !req
64. Nishimi-kun. Nishimi-kun!
Copy !req
65. Have you decided which club you're gonna join?
Copy !req
66. Are you interested in radios?
Copy !req
67. Look at those losers, Maruo!
Copy !req
68. Two four-eyed bookworm runts!
Copy !req
69. They're made for each other!
Copy !req
70. S-Sorry. Because of me, they picked on you too.
Copy !req
71. Infantile creeps like them can't do anything unless they're in a pack.
Copy !req
72. I'm not interested in them.
Copy !req
73. Nishimi-kun...
Copy !req
74. I'm not interested in radios either.
Copy !req
75. Nishimi-kun, just one thing...
Copy !req
76. It's not a good idea to mess with the guy who sits behind me.
Copy !req
77. He's a notorious thug that even the teacher can't handle.
Copy !req
78. His name is Kawabuchi, and if he zeros in on you,
Copy !req
79. it's all over.
Copy !req
80. Oh, no. Just thinking about it makes me feel nauseous.
Copy !req
81. Nishimi-san...
Copy !req
82. Nishimi-san?
Copy !req
83. I'm the class representative, Mukae Ritsuko.
Copy !req
84. I was instructed to show you around the school during the lunch break.
Copy !req
85. It's nice to meet you.
Copy !req
86. I... don't feel sick anymore.
Copy !req
87. So the gymnasium is over there.
Copy !req
88. And the infirmary is in this building...
Copy !req
89. A-Are you okay, Nishimi-san?!
Copy !req
90. What do you think you're doing?!
Copy !req
91. Whoops! It slipped outta my hand!
Copy !req
92. Sorry 'bout that!
Copy !req
93. What's this?
Copy !req
94. Who's that?
Copy !req
95. Never seen him before...
Copy !req
96. Um... Mukae-san, where's the roof?
Copy !req
97. I've moved from school to school ever since first grade.
Copy !req
98. If something unexpected happened, I would lose my balance,
Copy !req
99. and even minor stress would trigger nausea.
Copy !req
100. But one time, I found a place at school where I could regain my bearings.
Copy !req
101. That's right. If I can just get to the roof...
Copy !req
102. What's this?
Copy !req
103. You finally...
Copy !req
104. ...came for me?
Copy !req
105. Who the hell are you?
Copy !req
106. Why are you holdin' my hand?
Copy !req
107. You're the one that grabbed my hand!
Copy !req
108. I get it... You're the key burglar, huh?
Copy !req
109. In that case, I ain't gonna hold back.
Copy !req
110. Are you Sentaro?
Copy !req
111. Is this what you're lookin' for?
Copy !req
112. Then you goons are the thieves, huh?
Copy !req
113. The roof belongs to us third-year smokers!
Copy !req
114. W-Wait!
Copy !req
115. I want the key to the roof.
Copy !req
116. A wimp like you better get the hell outta here!
Copy !req
117. You want the key that badly?
Copy !req
118. I-I want it!
Copy !req
119. Hold this for me.
Copy !req
120. H-Hey! Are you all right?!
Copy !req
121. Come on, get a hold of yourself!
Copy !req
122. How reckless can you be, going up against three third-years?
Copy !req
123. This is what you wanted, right?
Copy !req
124. Can I really have it?
Copy !req
125. Yeah, here...
Copy !req
126. For 100,000.
Copy !req
127. Don't tell me you thought I'd give it to you for nothin'.
Copy !req
128. I put my ass on the line gettin' it.
Copy !req
129. 100,000 is cheap.
Copy !req
130. Dammit!
Copy !req
131. Well, I'm goin' home.
Copy !req
132. Come to think of it, I didn't even go to class once today.
Copy !req
133. A city boy like that's got no common ground with us country boys.
Copy !req
134. I can't believe you, Sentaro! You got into another fight?!
Copy !req
135. It's just some scratches.
Copy !req
136. You... Hey!
Copy !req
137. Rikko, who's that?
Copy !req
138. I'm not gonna answer a guy who does nothin' but fight.
Copy !req
139. Maruo! Talk.
Copy !req
140. H-He's a new transfer student, Nishimi Kaoru-kun.
Copy !req
141. He's supposed to be rich and a real brainiac...
Copy !req
142. Oh?
Copy !req
143. Later, Maruo!
Copy !req
144. Hi there, rich boy.
Copy !req
145. From now on, your name is "Bon."
Copy !req
146. Let's you and me be chums, eh?
Copy !req
147. Sentaro's got a new target.
Copy !req
148. It's curtains for him.
Copy !req
149. I feel sorry for him.
Copy !req
150. Oh, no... I feel sick again...
Copy !req
151. Sorry. I've got a favor to ask...
Copy !req
152. Huh?
Copy !req
153. 100,000 is impossible, but could you lend me the key this once?
Copy !req
154. Oh, this?
Copy !req
155. But right now it's...
Copy !req
156. Hey! It's comin' down cats 'n dogs!
Copy !req
157. There's no problem if I take an umbrella!
Copy !req
158. Sounds like a blast! I'm comin' too!
Copy !req
159. What the hell?
Copy !req
160. This ain't much fun at all.
Copy !req
161. Of course not.
Copy !req
162. I'm not up here to have fun.
Copy !req
163. Then why bother comin' up here?
Copy !req
164. If you're bored, you can always go back.
Copy !req
165. Nah.
Copy !req
166. Class ain't my scene.
Copy !req
167. Don't follow me!
Copy !req
168. You're giving me the creeps!
Copy !req
169. This feels great.
Copy !req
170. Bon, you should take a shower too!
Copy !req
171. Leave me alone!
Copy !req
172. What are you scared of?
Copy !req
173. Nothin' good has ever come from fear.
Copy !req
174. Let yourself get a little wet!
Copy !req
175. What happened?!
Copy !req
176. You're both...
Copy !req
177. Geez...
Copy !req
178. Giving me trouble to no end...
Copy !req
179. We're going straight to the infirmary, so you can borrow a towel!
Copy !req
180. Oh, that's right. I'll get your gym clothes!
Copy !req
181. I'll meet you there!
Copy !req
182. Is that... jazz?
Copy !req
183. What, you can tell?
Copy !req
184. Well, sort of...
Copy !req
185. I play piano.
Copy !req
186. Classical music, though...
Copy !req
187. Classical, huh? What a drag.
Copy !req
188. Sorry for the wait.
Copy !req
189. Huh? Where's the nurse?
Copy !req
190. Looks like she's out.
Copy !req
191. Nishimi-san,
Copy !req
192. I didn't notice with your glasses on,
Copy !req
193. but you have a really pretty face.
Copy !req
194. W-What...
Copy !req
195. Oh, is it rude to call a man "pretty"?
Copy !req
196. I meant "handsome."
Copy !req
197. N-No, I'm not...
Copy !req
198. What are you doing?!
Copy !req
199. I'm a human hair dryer!
Copy !req
200. Sentaro!
Copy !req
201. There he goes again, bein' scared.
Copy !req
202. What a fraidy cat!
Copy !req
203. I'm not scared!
Copy !req
204. Oh yeah?
Copy !req
205. How could I be afraid anymore?
Copy !req
206. After all...
Copy !req
207. that rain felt way better than I imagined.
Copy !req
208. It's weird.
Copy !req
209. Even with everyone staring at me, I can breathe normally.
Copy !req
210. What kind of magic is this?
Copy !req
211. That's amazing, Dad!
Copy !req
212. Being able to play the piano, even though you're a sailor...
Copy !req
213. Kaoru, I'm going to be away again for quite a while.
Copy !req
214. Be a good boy while I'm gone, okay?
Copy !req
215. When I play the piano, I can forget all of the bad stuff
Copy !req
216. and the loneliness from Dad being away.
Copy !req
217. Don't worry, Kaoru.
Copy !req
218. Your uncle in Kyushu has a huge grand piano.
Copy !req
219. Dad... I don't want a grand piano.
Copy !req
220. What I want is...
Copy !req
221. Oh, Kaoru-kun.
Copy !req
222. You're up pretty early today, huh?
Copy !req
223. You wanna play the piano?
Copy !req
224. Go ahead.
Copy !req
225. I'd like to hear a tune that'd wake me up.
Copy !req
226. But playing this early—
Copy !req
227. But I wanna hear it right now!
Copy !req
228. I'll take responsibility, so please!
Copy !req
229. Please, please, please!
Copy !req
230. All right, fine.
Copy !req
231. Dad...
Copy !req
232. Excuse me? What do you think you're doing?
Copy !req
233. Playing the piano at this hour...
Copy !req
234. Don't you have any sense?
Copy !req
235. I'm sorry, Aunt.
Copy !req
236. Mariko-chan—
Copy !req
237. See?
Copy !req
238. This is why I told you to stop.
Copy !req
239. Putting the blame on someone else...
Copy !req
240. I guess it's difficult for a father to raise a child alone.
Copy !req
241. Although it's your mother who's responsible, abandoning the both of you.
Copy !req
242. Nishimi-san...
Copy !req
243. Mukae-san...
Copy !req
244. Sentaro didn't come today, huh?
Copy !req
245. Are you lonely without Sentaro here?
Copy !req
246. Sorry.
Copy !req
247. I wasn't able to comprehend that question.
Copy !req
248. I'll be quite pleased if he sees fit to extend his absence.
Copy !req
249. I-I see...
Copy !req
250. It looked to me like you two were hitting it off.
Copy !req
251. Everyone else is afraid of Sentaro,
Copy !req
252. but you act normally in front of him.
Copy !req
253. I bet you and Sentaro could become buddies, Nishimi-san.
Copy !req
254. Mukae-san...
Copy !req
255. Give me a break with that smile.
Copy !req
256. Really, as his childhood friend, I can guarantee it.
Copy !req
257. Childhood friend?
Copy !req
258. So that's why you're so casual with each other's names.
Copy !req
259. Oh, you can call me by my name too, Nishimi-san.
Copy !req
260. And then maybe I'll call you... "Kaoru-san."
Copy !req
261. Kaoru-san, Kaoru-san, Kaoru-san...
Copy !req
262. Wh-What is this echoing?
Copy !req
263. Sorry I said that without asking.
Copy !req
264. If you don't like it...
Copy !req
265. No, it's fine! I don't mind it at all.
Copy !req
266. Oh, that's right... Ri... chan...
Copy !req
267. Yes?
Copy !req
268. Do you happen to know of a record shop in town that sells classical music?
Copy !req
269. Records?
Copy !req
270. We've got tons of records at my place!
Copy !req
271. You should come over!
Copy !req
272. You know what I really mean by inviting you over...
Copy !req
273. Kaoru-san.
Copy !req
274. I-I think things are moving too fast.
Copy !req
275. Is this how Kyushu girls behave?
Copy !req
276. This is our shop.
Copy !req
277. And this is my father!
Copy !req
278. Fath...
Copy !req
279. M-My name is Nishimi Kaoru.
Copy !req
280. Your daughter has been very kind...
Copy !req
281. The classical records are over on that shelf, Kaoru-san.
Copy !req
282. Right.
Copy !req
283. What kind of records are you looking for?
Copy !req
284. Well, piano music.
Copy !req
285. I play the piano myself, you see.
Copy !req
286. You play the piano?!
Copy !req
287. Oh, it's not a big deal...
Copy !req
288. Come with me!
Copy !req
289. Ritsuko!
Copy !req
290. Outsiders aren't allowed in there.
Copy !req
291. Dad,
Copy !req
292. Kaoru-san is a good friend of mine and Sentaro.
Copy !req
293. Sen's?
Copy !req
294. No, I'm not his friend, just a...
Copy !req
295. Come on, go in.
Copy !req
296. Go ahead.
Copy !req
297. What is this?
Copy !req
298. What the hell are you doin' here?!
Copy !req
299. Th-That's what I want to ask you!
Copy !req
300. Rikko! We've got an intruder!
Copy !req
301. Listen to this, Sentaro!
Copy !req
302. Kaoru-san says he can play piano!
Copy !req
303. Yeah, I know, I know.
Copy !req
304. But bet you anything it's just rich kid, stuffed shirt classical stuff.
Copy !req
305. Jazz is the only music for me.
Copy !req
306. Kaoru-san...
Copy !req
307. Kaoru-san?
Copy !req
308. Say, Kaoru-san, go on and play the piano!
Copy !req
309. Oh, I don't...
Copy !req
310. Rikko,
Copy !req
311. only jazz is allowed in here!
Copy !req
312. If it's the piano you want, I'll play it.
Copy !req
313. Oh, I know this piece...
Copy !req
314. I can't hear any more. It's like this.
Copy !req
315. Wrong!
Copy !req
316. That ain't even close!
Copy !req
317. What are you talking about?!
Copy !req
318. I played it exactly right!
Copy !req
319. There wasn't any swing!
Copy !req
320. If you play it without feelin', it ain't jazz to me!
Copy !req
321. Say, I'd love to hear you two do a session together!
Copy !req
322. Hah?!
Copy !req
323. Nah, Rikko. That's a no-go.
Copy !req
324. This guy doesn't get jazz at all, and he's got no sense for it.
Copy !req
325. A little practice, and playing that'll be a cinch!
Copy !req
326. Thank you for having me over.
Copy !req
327. Um, Kaoru-san!
Copy !req
328. Come back again, okay?
Copy !req
329. Ricchan, do you know the name of the tune he was playing on the piano?
Copy !req
330. Um...
Copy !req
331. The only thing Sen can play on the piano is the intro to this.
Copy !req
332. Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers' "Moanin'."
Copy !req
333. I'd like this, please.
Copy !req
334. Wasn't he here to buy classical music?
Copy !req
335. Yeah.
Copy !req
336. I don't know why...
Copy !req
337. ...but his drums just wouldn't stop thundering in my head.
Copy !req
338. Kaoru-san?
Copy !req
339. Wh-What?
Copy !req
340. Aren't you walking strange?
Copy !req
341. Really? This is how I always walk.
Copy !req
342. Ow!
Copy !req
343. Rikko! Bon! See ya'!
Copy !req
344. You're running down this slope that I hate so much like it's nothing...
Copy !req
345. What can you see beyond the hill?
Copy !req
346. Is it an outlook I've never seen before?
Copy !req
347. ano sakamichi de kimi wo matteita
Copy !req
348. I've been waiting for you on that slope.
Copy !req
349. houkago no yakusoku ni
Copy !req
350. The promise made after school
Copy !req
351. tooku nijimu sayonara
Copy !req
352. blurred into the distance as a goodbye.
Copy !req
353. yowakute ibitsu de sugu ni kowaresana
Copy !req
354. I seemed to be weak,
Copy !req
355. ano koro no boku mie
Copy !req
356. warped, and frail back then.
Copy !req
357. chiisana tsubasa wo kimi ga kuretanda
Copy !req
358. But you gave me these small wings.
Copy !req
359. yuuyami kashi no sora ni
Copy !req
360. In this twilight sky's visibility,
Copy !req
361. kasukana hikari sagashiteiru
Copy !req
362. I keep on searching for that faint light.
Copy !req
363. kimi ga suki dato suki dato ietanara
Copy !req
364. And I wanted to tell you that I love you.
Copy !req
365. kyoukasho no sumi ni kaita tegami wa
Copy !req
366. I wrote a letter in the corner of the textbook
Copy !req
367. itsumade mo todokazu ni
Copy !req
368. that will never reach its destination
Copy !req
369. ano hi no mama
Copy !req
370. and remained as it was back then.
Copy !req
371. "Kids on the Slope" has finally begun.
Copy !req
372. And the title of every episode is
the name of a famous jazz song, huh?
Copy !req
373. Like this first episode was "Mornin"'.
Copy !req
374. No, no, that's "Moanin"'!
Copy !req
375. I see!
Copy !req
376. That's the title because you spend
the whole episode whining,
Copy !req
377. sighing, and groaning, right, Kaoru-san?
Copy !req
378. R-Ri-chan...
Copy !req
379. Next time, look forward to "Summertime"!
Copy !req
