That is all. Third semester is over!
You may all become second year students!
Rise!
Attention!
Bow!
Draft Picks
Osaka-san!
Yes.
What's the matter? You're not very cheerful, Osaka-san.
Yes.
Osaka-san?
You know, we're gonna be second year students, aren't we?
That's right, we're going to be second year students.
Becomin' second year students means the classes'll be shuffled...
Oh, that's true!
It'd be nice if I could be in the same class with you again.
We can be! We can be in the same class again!
And Tomo-chan and Yomi-chan and Sakaki-san too.
It'd be nice if we could be in the same class with them again.
We can be! We can be in the same class again!
And it'd be nice if Yukari-sensei is our homeroom teacher again.
She can be! I'm sure she can be!
We'll all be together, even when we become second year students!
You don't have to worry about that.
Yukari-sensei?
I'll be your homeroom teacher for the second year too.
Really?
And Chiyo-chan, you'll add to our fighting power, so I've got my sights set on you.
Yay! Thank you, Yukari-sensei!
All right! All right! Woohoo! Yay! Yay!
Hurray! Hurray! Yay! All right! All right! Hurray!
Cherish Flowers
I'll get to be in the same class with Sakaki-san again next year.
I won't be in the same class.
I will.
I won't.
I will.
I won't.
I will.
You will.
I won't.
You won't.
I will.
You will.
I won't.
You won't.
I will.
You will.
I won't.
You won't.
I will.
I...
Let's be together, Kaorin.
Please stop that!
Class Shuffle
Woohoo! It's a new school year!
VIVA CLASS SHUFFLE!
Viva class shuffle!
Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
It'll be great if we're all in the same class.
Just like how Tomo-chan and Yomi-san have been in the same class since grade school.
I don't have anyone I've been with since grade school, so I envy you two.
Hey, are you trying to be sarcastic?

There I am! I'm in Yukari-sensei's class!
Me too!
Oh, you're right.
So am I.
Not here...
I guess we're all together again.
I'm not here.
Kaorin!
Is this what you'd call a notice of not being a beneficial addition?
Chiyo-chan...
Yukari-chan sure is harsh.
It'll be okay! I'm sure you'll make new friends right away!
What? Me?
I'm, well, how should I put it? Energetic!
You know...
In the end...
You know!

Isn't this ''Osaka'' you?
Huh?
The ''Osaka''... is me?

Sa-ka-ki-san!
Sa-Sakaki-san, good morning!
It looks like we get to be in the same class again.
Yeah.
I'm so tired.
That's!
Kagura-san, the girl who's good at every sport!
Yo.
Guess we're in the same class now.
I've been wanting to have a proper chat with you.
I'd heard that we're kind of alike.
Well, not that I needed to hear. I'm sure we've both felt it...
Don't tell me...
You don't remember me?
No.
I-I see.
Come on, we competed in the sports fest, the marathon,
and the team sports tournament, remember?
You don't remember? You really don't remember?
No.
A-Anyway, we're rivals! Be seeing you!
S-Sure.
Yukari-sensei is planning for the sports fest!

Okay, starting today, you are all second year students.
And I, Tanizaki Yukari, am your homeroom teacher.
Everyone, I hope we have a good year.
Now that I'm looking,
there are quite a few of you here from my first year class.
I wonder why?
Why?
This year, I'm goin' to get it together.
Get it together. Get it together.
Now, why could this be? It's very strange, isn't it?
S e c o n d Y e a r S t u d e n t s
It's not about how remembering new names would be a pain in the butt.
It's really not about anything like that at all.
So, please bear that in mind.
S e c o n d Y e a r S t u d e n t s
Oh, and please don't change your seating arrangement, either.
Of course, that goes for the class representative too.
Please bear that in mind.
Okay, now that that's been said, class representative, say hello.
Class Rep
Yes, ma'am!
Class Rep
Come on, come on, just don't worry about it and come up to the front.
Yes, ma'am.
Class Rep
Get it together. Get it together.
Chiyo-chan sure isn't well-known for nothing. She really is cute.
Totally different from our school's well-known wildcat idiot.

Hi, I'm our school's well-known...

You know that behinds are more useful than idiots?!
Eternally-running-behind Sakaki-san Girl
What did you say?! Your breasts are more developed than your butt!
She really is the wildcat idiot.
Hey, that's just perfect, you knucklehead!
Okay, okay, everyone, please be nice to each other.
You're all a vital part of our fighting power.
Get it together. Get it together. Get it together. Get it together.
Hey, Sakaki!
I don't have swimming practice today, so let's walk home together!
Say, I've been wanting to ask you something.
Do you usually play any sports or anything, Sakaki?
Not really.
And you were still that great at the sports fest, marathon, and the team sports tournament?
That's amazing.
Are you thinking about joining a club or anything?
Judo Club
Cheerfull!
Ping Pong Club
Considering how good you are, I'll bet the sports teams would want a say in that.
Sakaki-san!
This year, please...
Join our club!
Sports clubs aren't really my kind of thing.
Baseball Club
Trackteam
Recruiting!
Tennis Club
Wow, I'm impressed.
Impressed?
Sakaki-san!
This year, please...
Join our club!
So, for example, what do you think of the swim team?
Well, I guess it just means what they say is true.
I'd heard that you're a taciturn lone wolf who doesn't like crowds.
Wolf?
Sakaki-san, please join our club!
Gosh darn it, Sakaki, you're being way too cool.
Wolf...
Damn, what'll I say to my senpai tomorrow?
Oh, it's a cat.
You idiot!
I feel better now.
No one understands!
First year students said you were cute?
Yes! Osaka-san and I went to the faculty office on the first floor
Putting On Senior Airs
and we got surrounded by first year students on our way back.
You must be the famous Chiyo-chan!
You really are tiny!
So cute!
It was so rude! I'm a second year student!
And when I told Yomi-san and the others...
Well, of course the first year students are surprised when they see you for the first time.
It's okay, all you have to be is cute, Chiyo-chan.
If you hate it that much, why don't you make a big sign saying
that you're a second year student and pin it to your chest?
I a m
a s e c o n d
y e a r s t u d e n t
There!
Just because it's not their problem!
I don't want first year students saying that I'm cute or that I'm tiny or that I'm a kid.
I see.
Sakaki-san, you understand how I feel, don't you?
She's so cool! That girl with long hair!
She's a second year!
She's in Class 3!
Her name's Sakaki-san! She's 174cm tall!
Sakaki-san is so cool!
Sakaki-san, you understand how I feel, don't you?
Sorry, I'm afraid not.
No one understands me after all!
Huh? What's a kid doing here?
You are a new student, are you not?
Y-Yeah...
I am Mihama Chiyo, a second year student.
What?
It's Mihama-senpai to you!
U-Umm...
Uh, Mihama-senpai...
Good.
Senpai?
I'm hungry.
Hey.
Yeah?
It never registered with me before,
but we were first year students until just the other day, right?
Never mind that, just hurry up and copy the homework.
Oh, we've finally become second year students.
I feel like I want to do something second year-ish now.
Yeah, yeah, after you finish copying, okay?
Whoa! Eating lunch early?!
Perhaps the concept is far too simpleminded, but...
Curry...
When you've become a second year high school student,
eating lunch early is far beyond general common knowledge that one must possess.
It is at the level of the basics among the basics.
Thanks for the food!
Tomo-chan, class is going to start soon.
You can't eat lunch early if you're afraid of class!
Well, of course,
perhaps it's a feat that a child could hardly emulate.
Come on, come on.
Come on, come on, come on. How do you like that?
This hour before lunch period!
Will you be able to persevere in this world of early lunches galore?
Faculty Office
Classical Literature
Pardon me, I didn't realize it was lunch period.
Faculty Office
Eleven o'clock?
Ding-dong!
Marco...
Damn! Almost everyone's gone home!
Oh, Yukari-sensei.
Oh, well.
You guys, come over here for a second!
Oishii Strawberries
I couldn't help myself, I just had to pick it up.
Oishii Strawberries
Is it going to explode or something when we open it?
Picking stuff up off the street can be dangerous,
so you shouldn't open it carelessly.
It'd actually be better if it was something dangerous.
Oishii Strawberries
Look.
It's a kitten!
He's tiny!
He's sleepin'.
He's got a pink nose.
What a tiny bundle.
He's got nasty crud on his eyes!
Listen here. One of you, take this cat home.
I can see him.
What?! Aren't you going to keep him?!
I'm busy, so I can't!
Look.
A tiny kitten like this can't survive on his own.
Don't you feel sorry for him?
So, like I said, you should keep him!
And I told you, I'm busy!
Sakaki, what's going on?
Listen to me, kittens are...
Never mind! Someone just take him!
That's easy for you to say, but...
I can't take him.
Me, neither.
I've got a dog at home.
What are you talking about?
I have Tadakichi-san at home too.
Oh, a cat?
What about you, Sakaki?
I can't, either.
Oh, man...
He's curled up into a ball...
* Maru means round. Maruiko means round thing.
It's all curled up... Maru... Maru... Maruiko...
I know, I'll name him Marco.
Hey, Sakaki.
When you think of Marco, there's that story...
Sakaki?
Could he also be traveling 3000 leagues in search of his mother?
Is he going to journey 12,000km all by himself?
Hello?
He's probably been through a lot of sad and tough times
that can't be expressed in just a word or two.
H-Hey...
Hang in there, Marco.
M-Marco?
* Tama is a generic name for cats, much like Rover or Fido for dogs.
Tama!
Tama, Tama!
Tama, wake up!
Tama!
Oh, how about keeping Tama as a class?
And?
Oh, I get it.
So, the person in charge has to feed him and stuff, right?
Me.
That's Chiyo-chan for ya. You're smart.
In that case, I wouldn't mind being the pet keeper.
Me.
No, no! This isn't like keeping goldfish!
All right! I'll help out here!
Yeah?
I actually happen to live near a public health center.
That's no good.
Oh, Tama's awake!
Wow, he's super cute!
I want to hold him!
He's just so cute!
Oh, me too.
He's a good kitty.
N-Next...
I get to hold him next, okay?
C-Careful...
Oh, geez, it's scary watching you hold him, Tomo!
Here, you have to hold him carefully like this.
Hey, Yomi, no fair.
Sakaki, you want to hold him too?
Yeah.
Hey, it ran away!
Don't worry, I just know he'll make it on his own.
That's totally not what you were saying before!

Hey, Kagura!
I don't care if Sakaki-san's your rival!
Quit challenging her over and over like a stupid one-trick pony!
Who are you calling stupid?!
All right, here's your question.
Try saying, ''I'm a big stupid idiot, '' in English!
What?
I am super baka.
You really are stupid!
What did you say?!
