1. I'm home.
Copy !req
2. Welcome back.
Copy !req
3. What are you doing?
Copy !req
4. Making curry.
Copy !req
5. Looking like that?
Copy !req
6. I'd hate if it splashed on my clothes.
Copy !req
7. Delicious!
Copy !req
8. Yeah, it's great.
Copy !req
9. That's because I followed the recipe exactly.
Just like a science experiment.
Copy !req
10. Come to think, cooking and
experiments might be similar.
Copy !req
11. Futaba, got a moment?
Copy !req
12. Why is it that, each time I bathe,
you always come to talk to me?
Copy !req
13. Because it excites me when there's only a door
between me and a naked girl.
Copy !req
14. Sometimes, it's easier to talk
when you can't see their face, right?
Copy !req
15. What's with that?
Copy !req
16. I know what the other Futaba is doing.
Copy !req
17. So you heard something from the fake.
Copy !req
18. No, how I got there is a bit complicated.
Copy !req
19. I made that account before summer break.
Copy !req
20. But I didn't know what to write about.
Copy !req
21. Wouldn't anything have been okay?
Copy !req
22. Like, "I'm in love with a handsome guy
who has a girlfriend," or something.
Copy !req
23. Were you trying to make friends online?
Copy !req
24. Who knows...
Copy !req
25. It might have been simpler than that,
just wanting someone to give me attention.
Copy !req
26. Though, starting with lewd stuff isn't fair.
Copy !req
27. But that's all I got.
Copy !req
28. More like, you were confident about that?
Copy !req
29. It was only an inferiority complex,
never confidence.
Copy !req
30. My feminine parts developed
before any of my classmates.
Copy !req
31. When I realized how all the monkey-like boys
looked at me, I began to hate my body.
Copy !req
32. I felt like a truly filthy thing.
Copy !req
33. And yet, those photos?
Copy !req
34. Because I get reactions.
Copy !req
35. I felt some salvation in that there was
a reaction, regardless who it was from.
Copy !req
36. It's the same as saying you got something,
just not how you wanted to.
Copy !req
37. Maybe that's why. In the end, I couldn't
detach from the disgust I felt being seen.
Copy !req
38. The immense stress from the contradictory
ends and means caused my separation.
Copy !req
39. In other words,
"the Futaba that wants attention,"
Copy !req
40. and, "the Futaba that can't forgive
the means to do so," split apart?
Copy !req
41. That's pretty much it.
Copy !req
42. The other Futaba seems
to be uploading her selfies still.
Copy !req
43. I know...
Copy !req
44. So what do you want?
Copy !req
45. If possible, I'd like her to stop.
Copy !req
46. All right. Leave it to me.
Copy !req
47. What are you planning?
Copy !req
48. I'll go to school again tomorrow.
Copy !req
49. And I'll have a leisurely chat
with the other Futaba.
Copy !req
50. You do some tedious things.
Copy !req
51. Doka-chan, what's your favorite thing?
Copy !req
52. I like the actress Mai Sakurajima.
Copy !req
53. She's a thing!
Copy !req
54. Most folks would say things
like "strawberries" or "bean daifuku."
Copy !req
55. Mai-san, what are you doing for your bath?
Copy !req
56. Then, the strawberry daifuku Mai Sakurajima
was eating in one of her TV dramas!
Copy !req
57. Yeah, but before that...
Copy !req
58. Oh, come to think, you mentioned
you had something to talk about.
Copy !req
59. Eh! Dating is prohibited!
Copy !req
60. Does that mean we have to break up!
Copy !req
61. They didn't say that much, but the agency
ordered me to not see you privately.
Copy !req
62. They might be confusing me for an idol singer
who can't have romantic relationships at all.
Copy !req
63. So, did you agree to those terms?
Copy !req
64. It's not something I can decide by myself,
so I held on the reply.
Copy !req
65. Meaning...
Copy !req
66. Yeah. It's a problem for both of us, right?
Copy !req
67. There's nothing we can do for a while.
Copy !req
68. What do you mean, "nothing we can do?"
Copy !req
69. It's a strategic retreat.
Copy !req
70. You're okay with that?
Even if you can't see me for a while?
Copy !req
71. I hate it...
Copy !req
72. But, you just resumed your career in show-biz.
Copy !req
73. So wouldn't you be more well liked
if you acted the model student for a while?
Copy !req
74. A boring, yet sound argument.
Copy !req
75. AUGUST 4th
Copy !req
76. Did you figure something out?
Copy !req
77. I discovered that you're amazing
when you take your clothes off.
Copy !req
78. So you came to lecture me, saying something
like, "Don't do such foolish things."
Copy !req
79. As if. That's so tedious.
Copy !req
80. Mai-san went home,
and I can't go on dates with her.
Copy !req
81. So I'm bored, and thought to spend
some leisurely time with you.
Copy !req
82. I see, so you came to do something
even more tedious.
Copy !req
83. So did you take anything
other than the ones you uploaded?
Copy !req
84. So they're not all lewd.
Copy !req
85. Those are from middle school.
Copy !req
86. I had no intent on
showing anyone anything, at first.
Copy !req
87. I just wanted an objective look at myself
and think, "I'm doing something stupid."
Copy !req
88. What's the point of doing that?
Copy !req
89. A form of self-mutilation.
Copy !req
90. You might not be able to understand, but...
Copy !req
91. I hate who I am.
Copy !req
92. The other Futaba said something similar.
Copy !req
93. Azusagawa, which side are you on?
Copy !req
94. I'm on Futaba's side.
Copy !req
95. What a pretentious answer.
Copy !req
96. You really should give up
on one or the other.
Copy !req
97. The world doesn't need two Rio Futabas.
Copy !req
98. I went out to Kamakura.
Copy !req
99. With my other self?
Copy !req
100. No, by myself.
Copy !req
101. I thought you were having a leisurely chat?
Copy !req
102. Say, Futaba...
Copy !req
103. Can you think of a way to return to one self?
Copy !req
104. Now that we're both doing separate things,
gaining different memories and experiences,
Copy !req
105. I doubt we can return to one being.
Copy !req
106. AUGUST 5th
Copy !req
107. So, have you decided
which one of us you want?
Copy !req
108. That's something for you
to decide for yourself.
Copy !req
109. You should make your own decisions, right?
Copy !req
110. I see. A sound argument.
Copy !req
111. Man, I'm gonna die!
Copy !req
112. Sakuta! Air, please!
Copy !req
113. Futaba, Kunimi is asking you to fan him.
Copy !req
114. Futaba! Air, please!
Copy !req
115. Feels good...
Copy !req
116. Rio-san, would you like some, too?
Copy !req
117. So how long are you going
to keep doing stuff like this?
Copy !req
118. AUGUST 12th
Copy !req
119. Until Futaba no longer does stuff
like that, I guess.
Copy !req
120. Though, I wouldn't mind if it's until
you start showing lewd pics to only me.
Copy !req
121. If that's your goal,
you're getting further away each day.
Copy !req
122. Someone responding to you?
Copy !req
123. THAT'S A MINEGAHARA HIGH
RIGHT?
Copy !req
124. I'M CLOSE BY TODAY,
SO HOW ABOUT WE MEET UP?
Copy !req
125. IF YOU DON'T SEE ME,
I'LL TELL YOUR SCHOOL WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
Copy !req
126. WHERE ARE YOU RIGHT NOW?
Copy !req
127. Give me that.
Copy !req
128. I'M CALLING THE POLICE
Copy !req
129. That should do it.
Copy !req
130. I'll walk you home, just in case.
Copy !req
131. Delete it.
Copy !req
132. That account... Please, delete it.
Copy !req
133. Well... I'm sorry.
Copy !req
134. I got to see a really cute side of you,
so I'll be bragging to Kunimi sometime.
Copy !req
135. Here.
Copy !req
136. Eh?
Copy !req
137. Um... I want you to stay with me tonight.
Copy !req
138. Your parents?
Copy !req
139. Dad's in Germany for a conference.
Mom's somewhere in Europe for a business deal.
Copy !req
140. That's a line I'd usually hear in a TV drama.
Copy !req
141. Happens a lot in our family.
Copy !req
142. Full disclaimer, though. I am a guy.
Copy !req
143. If something happens,
Copy !req
144. I'll report to Sakurajima immediately,
including things that didn't happen.
Copy !req
145. Keep it to things that really happen, please.
Copy !req
146. Azusagawa?
Copy !req
147. I'm here.
Copy !req
148. Azusagawa?
Copy !req
149. Here.
Copy !req
150. I think I was scared.
Copy !req
151. Right now, I have you and Kunimi.
Copy !req
152. But maybe I felt like I'll end up
alone again, someday.
Copy !req
153. What's that about?
Copy !req
154. I wasn't this uneasy
before entering high school.
Copy !req
155. Whether at school or at home,
it was a given that I'd be by myself.
Copy !req
156. But I entered high school...
Copy !req
157. And ended up in the same class
as you and Kunimi in the first year...
Copy !req
158. And I've felt uneasy ever since.
Copy !req
159. Kunimi is such a sinful guy.
Copy !req
160. You're responsible for half of it.
Copy !req
161. I'm surprised you can
come to school every day.
Copy !req
162. The whole school gives you the cold shoulder
due to the hospitalization rumors.
Copy !req
163. Everyone is avoiding me?
Isn't that a bit too self-conscious?
Copy !req
164. I doubt it's going too far, at all.
Is your head all right?
Copy !req
165. No, you're coming to school
because it's not.
Copy !req
166. Futaba, you're amusing.
Copy !req
167. Huh? What do you mean?
Copy !req
168. When you talk to me like this,
you're quite amusing.
Copy !req
169. Oh yeah, stuff like that happened...
Copy !req
170. When Kunimi got a girlfriend,
I became really scared.
Copy !req
171. All he does is make you sad.
Copy !req
172. You, as well.
Copy !req
173. I thought you'd never give me attention again
after finding such a beautiful girlfriend.
Copy !req
174. Dumbass.
Copy !req
175. I intend to have you stick around as my friend
for the rest of my life.
Copy !req
176. That, and you really don't get it at all.
Copy !req
177. Get what?
Copy !req
178. You've got the hots for Kunimi,
but you don't understand him at all.
Copy !req
179. I'll borrow your phone.
Copy !req
180. I'll teach you just how amazing he is.
You'll fall in love all over again.
Copy !req
181. Stop it! This late at night,
he'll think I have no sense!
Copy !req
182. Too late.
Copy !req
183. Futaba's in a pinch!
Come to Honkugenuma Station right away!
Copy !req
184. You're late.
Copy !req
185. No, you're just too quick.
Copy !req
186. You're the one who said
to come flying over.
Copy !req
187. Futaba, are you all right?
Copy !req
188. Sakuta didn't do anything
weird to you, did he?
Copy !req
189. Like I would!
Copy !req
190. I totally thought that you assaulted her.
Copy !req
191. Why would the assailant
be the one calling you!
Copy !req
192. Because your guilty conscience
was tormenting you?
Copy !req
193. Wait, Sakuta doesn't have a conscience.
Copy !req
194. Why...
Copy !req
195. Why...
Copy !req
196. Kunimi, don't make her cry.
Copy !req
197. It's my fault?
Copy !req
198. Without a doubt, it's your fault.
Copy !req
199. Well, you got me.
Copy !req
200. It's not Kunimi's fault...
Copy !req
201. Futaba sure is cute when she cries.
Copy !req
202. I don't know that...
Copy !req
203. It's been a while since I last cried...
Copy !req
204. But... But I...
Copy !req
205. I wasn't alone at all... I wasn't alone...
Copy !req
206. Sakuta.
Copy !req
207. You're buying Futaba and I some juice.
Copy !req
208. Why am I the one being exploited?
I don't flippin' get it.
Copy !req
209. You gotta rehydrate what we've lost, yeah?
Copy !req
210. Here.
Copy !req
211. Thank you!
Copy !req
212. Azusagawa's been totally domesticated
by Sakurajima-senpai.
Copy !req
213. Sakuta can be valiant in the strangest places.
Copy !req
214. So, what do we do now?
Copy !req
215. This.
Copy !req
216. The wind's strong, huh?
Copy !req
217. They say a typhoon
is coming in tomorrow night.
Copy !req
218. Get closer, Kunimi.
Block the wind with that big body of yours.
Copy !req
219. S-So close...
Copy !req
220. Oh, it's lit!
Copy !req
221. Futaba, hurry.
Copy !req
222. Don't fling it around!
Copy !req
223. Kunimi, you're not asking me anything.
Copy !req
224. About me.
Copy !req
225. When Sakuta called me out,
I wondered what the hell was going on.
Copy !req
226. But when I saw you crying like that,
I didn't care anymore.
Copy !req
227. Argh! Damn, I lost!
Copy !req
228. Maybe we'll get a good view from here.
Copy !req
229. The fireworks festival at Enoshima
is next week, right?
Copy !req
230. Why don't we watch it together again?
Copy !req
231. You haven't made a promise
with that cute girlfriend of yours?
Copy !req
232. Well, we're kind of in the middle of a fight.
Copy !req
233. You didn't promise Sakurajima-senpai?
Copy !req
234. Thanks to her agency,
I'm prohibited from going on dates.
Copy !req
235. Nothing like a super-popular celebrity. Futaba?
Copy !req
236. I don't have any plans.
Copy !req
237. Then it's decided.
Copy !req
238. Isn't the sky a bit brighter now?
Copy !req
239. I've never pulled an all-nighter before.
Copy !req
240. What in the world am I doing?
Copy !req
241. Something stupid, of course.
Copy !req
242. We're certainly doing something stupid.
Copy !req
243. It would've been great if you two were girls.
Copy !req
244. The trains should be moving by now.
Copy !req
245. Well, that was fun. See ya.
Copy !req
246. Yeah.
Copy !req
247. Azusagawa...
Copy !req
248. If you're still scared,
I'll stay with you again today.
Copy !req
249. I'm fine on that front. It's my other self.
She has it worse than I do.
Copy !req
250. Because she hates me...
Copy !req
251. So, please... Take care of my other self.
Copy !req
252. Welcome back.
Copy !req
253. I'm home.
Copy !req
254. You must be tired.
Copy !req
255. Here. She said she deleted the account.
Copy !req
256. I doubt she'll be doing that anymore.
Copy !req
257. I see...
Copy !req
258. I'll fill you in on the details later.
Copy !req
259. Right now, I'm tired and going to sleep.
Copy !req
260. AUGUST 13th
Copy !req
261. Good morning, Big Brother.
Copy !req
262. Morning, Kaede.
Copy !req
263. Is Futaba in her room?
Copy !req
264. No, she's not back yet.
Copy !req
265. Huh? Did she step out?
Copy !req
266. Right after you came home,
she said she was going shopping.
Copy !req
267. Shopping?
Copy !req
268. Damn! She left her phone behind!
Copy !req
269. This is the worst feeling, dammit!
Copy !req
270. What's wrong?
Copy !req
271. Futaba is gone.
Copy !req
272. I got home, passed out, and when I woke up,
she was clean outta my house, stuff and all.
Copy !req
273. I'll say this just in case,
but we're not back to one person.
Copy !req
274. Any idea where she might have gone?
Copy !req
275. If it was me...
Copy !req
276. Dammit! This is so tedious!
Copy !req
277. Futaba is so tedious!
Copy !req
278. Azusagawa... Why?
Copy !req
279. Man, that was a hell of a time...
Copy !req
280. Yesterday... oh wait, this morning.
There was something I forgot to tell you.
Copy !req
281. What?
Copy !req
282. Wanna go see fireworks next week?
Copy !req
283. Eh?
Copy !req
284. The fireworks festival at Enoshima.
We went last year, didn't we?
Copy !req
285. Kunimi said he'd come, too.
Copy !req
286. I...
Copy !req
287. You're coming too, right?
Copy !req
288. I won't.
Copy !req
289. You already got plans or something?
Copy !req
290. I'm going to disappear from here...
Copy !req
291. Huh?
Copy !req
292. I'll disappear from your sight, Azusagawa.
I'll disappear from this city.
Copy !req
293. What's with that?
Copy !req
294. The world doesn't need two Rio Futabas.
Copy !req
295. My other self is being a much better
Rio Futaba than me.
Copy !req
296. She's accustomed to this world.
Copy !req
297. Everything will be resolved if I'm gone.
Copy !req
298. That's a wrong answer.
Copy !req
299. No part of that is wrong.
Copy !req
300. Totally wrong. Right from the foundation.
Copy !req
301. If so, why was such a picture...
Copy !req
302. If I'm shown such an enviable picture,
that's the only way I can think!
Copy !req
303. There's nowhere I belong anymore!
Copy !req
304. There's no more need for me...
Copy !req
305. You and Kunimi are fine
as long as my other self is around, right?
Copy !req
306. You're so insensitive, Azusagawa!
Copy !req
307. Dumbass. You say that after all this?
Copy !req
308. You're already fully aware
that I'm insensitive.
Copy !req
309. So, we're all meeting up at Kugenuma-
Kaigan Station at 6:30 on the 19th, okay?
Copy !req
310. That's all I have to say.
Copy !req
311. Azusagawa!
Copy !req
312. Morning.
Copy !req
313. This is all because you ran around
in the pouring rain, getting soaked.
Copy !req
314. The test results said there's nothing wrong.
Copy !req
315. Why do you look so captivated?
Copy !req
316. With such a beautiful senpai here,
I couldn't help it.
Copy !req
317. If you're acting like that,
you're definitely fine.
Copy !req
318. Mai-san, what brings you here?
Copy !req
319. I got a call from Futaba.
Copy !req
320. Azusagawa...
Copy !req
321. I troubled you with this, too.
Copy !req
322. No kidding.
The way you do this is so unfair.
Copy !req
323. I couldn't leave you collapsed
in a place like that.
Copy !req
324. If so, it was worth collapsing.
Copy !req
325. Azusagawa, I...
Copy !req
326. If it's about how you're no longer needed,
or everything will be reconciled if you fade away,
Copy !req
327. or you're scared and not sure what to do,
tedious stuff like that, I don't want to hear it.
Copy !req
328. It's all right if you hate yourself, really.
Copy !req
329. I always live thinking,
"well, I guess this is how things go."
Copy !req
330. Nothing less from you.
Copy !req
331. Normally, this is where people say
"You can slowly work on liking yourself,"
Copy !req
332. or "There are tons of good things
about you, Futaba," or something like that.
Copy !req
333. Living with such a positive attitude
is so exhausting, right?
Copy !req
334. You really are the worst, Azusagawa.
Copy !req
335. But somehow, it's a relief.
Copy !req
336. Truly, such a relief.
Copy !req
337. You know...
Copy !req
338. Can I go see the fireworks, too?
Copy !req
339. No way.
Copy !req
340. You can't come if you ask like that.
Copy !req
341. I-I want to see the fireworks, too!
Copy !req
342. You're asking the wrong person.
Copy !req
343. It's me.
Copy !req
344. Yeah, I met up with Azusagawa.
Copy !req
345. And, well... I have a favor to ask.
Copy !req
346. I want to go to the fireworks together.
Copy !req
347. Hello?
Copy !req
348. You should head back
to the consultation room.
Copy !req
349. Sakurajima-senpai is waiting for you, right?
Copy !req
350. So you're back to being one person.
Copy !req
351. Yeah. So, about the fireworks.
Don't you dare be late.
Copy !req
352. Got it.
Copy !req
353. AUGUST 19th
Copy !req
354. Hey, Futaba.
Copy !req
355. You went back to glasses.
Copy !req
356. I-Is it weird?
Copy !req
357. It looks good with the yukata. Right, Sakuta?
Copy !req
358. Looks kinda erotic.
Copy !req
359. Right, Kunimi?
Copy !req
360. Definitely.
Copy !req
361. That's why I hated wearing a yukata.
Copy !req
362. Kunimi...
Copy !req
363. What?
Copy !req
364. Futaba, I...
Copy !req
365. Don't bother answering.
I already know the answer.
Copy !req
366. I see...
Copy !req
367. If you said anything, I think I'd cry, too.
Copy !req
368. If you do, Sakuta will lend you
a sleeve of his yukata.
Copy !req
369. You can blow your nose in it.
Copy !req
370. Idiot.
Copy !req
371. Kunimi?
