Yoshimizu Kagami Theater
Year 3, Class B?
Kuroi Sensei!
Yeah, yeah...
Morning to both of you!
Hey.
Morning.
You actually wore your winter clothes.
It's not like I'm Tsukasa.
Whaat!?
But since there's still plenty of hot days,
we could live with summer clothes, don't you think?
And when we're in our summer clothes, there's cold days...
They should just let us choose freely!
I know!
It's mostly to keep your attitude fresh.
Otherwise, there'd be more inefficient folks, like you guys.
Pandora's Box
Doesn't happen in our house,
but I hear there's parents who check their daughter's text messages and emails.
Yes, we hear about it occasionally.
Does something like that happen at your place?
Doesn't happen to me, either.
Your dad seems to dote upon you,
so I guess he wouldn't do something that his daughter dislikes.
That's part of the reason, I guess...
But my dad uses the computer too, you know...
He knows how humiliating it is when others browse his D drive.
D... what?
With all those classes and stuff this summer,
I guess the only fun I had in the end were the fireworks and Ariake.
So you did go to Comiket.
Comiket!?
Well, you know...
Because of it, my wallet's pretty lonely.
How much did you spend?
You never control your spending.
If one issue costs 1000 yen on average...
Maybe 40-, 50000 yen in all?
($340 - $430)
Wha-- you--
There must be a limit to how screwed up your sense of money can be...
But you see, Kagami,
there's this thing called a "market price,"
and self-publishing is quite expensive!
That's not what I meant!
It's your ability to actually spend that much money!
It might be September,
but it's still hot, isn't it?
Yeah, really.
It seems to be especially hot this year.
They're talking about global warming.
Yuu-chan is prone to heat stroke,
so she's been resting a lot in an air conditioned room.
Tsukasa does the same thing, but she's just lazy.
My dad and I would join in with her,
and we'd all lay around like the "little" symbol (小).
"Little?" Don't you mean "river" (川)?
Nope, Dad is always in the middle.
Not too surprising for your family...
I guess Yutaka-chan's gotten used to it, too.
Yahoo!
How's it goin', Yutaka?
I came to hang out!
Sis!
Oh? And who's this?
It's my friend, Iwasaki Minami-chan!
Ah, so it's the Minami-chan that Yutaka always tells me about!
Sis!
For her to have a source of hope so closeby...
I'm a little envious.
I've heard rumors,
but you sure are a pretty one!
Sis is surprised!
Want something to drink?
A beer, then!
Wait, aren't you driving!?
Just kiddin'!
Barley tea, barley tea!
I see...
One of them absorbs...
Absorbs, is it?
Oh, so it's Yassai Mossai...
I just get so sleepy at night...
Do you have any good ideas?
Rather than forcing yourself,
wouldn't it be better to sleep and get up early, and work on it then?
You'll probably feel better, too.
I see!
Yeah, that makes sense!
Gonna wake up early and try hard.
Huh? Why is it the same time as usual?
I seem to remember turning something off...
Even if I wake up early,
my usual habit makes me fall asleep again!
Your intentions are so weak...
Maybe I really should try hard and work late into the night?
Trying to study while rubbing your sleepy eyes
doesn't sound very effective to me.
Why don't you get someone to wake you up?
People like Mom wake up early.
Right, Mom?
Sure, sure.
I'll wake you up.
This will work out great.
Thanks to Sis.
Mom, I told you to wake me up!
I did, you even responded!
What? I don't know what you're talking about...
You don't remember?
Sis forgot her lunch...
Thanks!
Walking through the halls of another year's classes feels different, doesn't it?
There's a bit of pressure, or something.
Oh, I know what you mean.
I bet Yuu-chan really grabbed people's attention.
Considering how she is...
Usually it's just the person's imagination,
but whether it's the upperclassmen's hall or the lowerclassmen's hall,
you just feel this weird air of attention around you, right?
I already stand out because I'm short,
but when I think that they're upperclassmen,
I feel even more pressure...
I like to get that kind of attention, actually.
Really?
But I don't even get attention in the first years' hall...
They don't realize I'm older.
Generates no pressure as an upperclassman.
Oh, Patty-chan.
Hi there!
Are you going to your job now?
That's right.
I signed up for too many shifts this week.
You're still working too, right?
Yep.
We're pretty popular!
Especially with the A-Boys!
A-Boy?
They're the boys who look like they obviously belong in Akiba.
But Narimiya-kun was a little different...
You've grown quite accustomed to Japan!
That's a little too specific, isn't it?
I just thought of some good material!
Gonna write it down when I'm done with my bath.
H-Huh? I can't remember it!
This is what happens when I can't write it quickly...
It was funny...
I just know it's funny!
Another tiring day for me...
This idea might be fun...!
Gonna write it down when I wake up tomorrow.
H-Huh?
That's weird, what was it...
It was definitely a good idea...
I should've written it down instead of being so lazy!
I bothered to wake up really fast, but why do I forget dreams so quickly!?
I just know that one was funny!
So anyway,
be sure to talk it out and decide as a group.
Kyoto Nara
School Trip
We're actually headed to Kyoto and Nara,
so make sure to research the must-go spots!
School Tr-- Kyoto and--
* Things to Decide Groups for unsupervised activities Hotel rooms Train seating order Trash monitor -- Shiraishi Minoru
Aren't we going to the tourist spots together on a bus, anyway?
The places we're going together are the usual spots, so they're not gonna be interesting!
If you admit to that already... I don't have a comeback.
So Iris entered this place.
I will now guide you through the old capital of Nara.
Nearly 1300 years have passed since it became the capital in the year 710...
Since we're in Nara,
I hope you enjoy my narration of Nara's history.
Nara! A narration of Nara!
Were we supposed to laugh?
Thanks for waiting!
This is the base...
And the tiny ones surrounding it...
They must be options!
You're gonna get in trouble for that.
It's sticky...
And stinky...
I'm all smelly now!
Here, here!
Here.
What do you think you're doing...
Please. Please.
Huh? Huh?
They're probably asking to take their picture.
Umm... umm...
"Click, click"
Okay?
It's times like these where someone's study habits become apparent.
You shouldn't be the one to talk!
Umm...
Sis, how do you say "Cheese" in Indian?
That would be Hindi, right...?
Let's see...
Umm...
Hey, you're not any better, Kagami!
I believe English also works in India.
That's right!
"Say cheese!" should be good.
Okay!
Say cheese!
You know...
Whenever there's a school trip,
there's a lot of couples that suddenly form, right?
You can't miss the school trip event!
Perhaps leaving the school campus helps students become openhearted?
They probably think now or never!
I'm embarrassed to say,
I get too anxious to sleep if I don't have my usual pillow!
I'm embarrassed to say,
I get too anxious to sleep if I don't have this nearby!
I'm embarrassed to say,
I get too anxious to sleep if I don't turn this on at least once a day!
Everyone,
the bus will soon approach Kiyomizu-dera.
The hill that leads to Kiyomizu-dera is called Sannen-zaka,
Sannen-zaka: Three Year Hill
and if you trip and fall here,
there's a legend that you will die in three years!
The Sannen-zaka might become your Zannen-zaka!
Zannen-zaka: Regretful Hill
Does falling down in laughter count?
Listen up.
Now we're going to travel in small groups.
Watch out for cars when you're walking.
We're regrouping at 12:30 in front of Chion-in.
You better not be late.
If you're late, you'll be doing 20 fun papers when we get home!
I doubt it...
Let's try!
I guess that's it for our dragon-slaying attempt!
It's so tall!
act as though...the Kiyomizu stage: to make a strong decision
They say you should act "as though you're willing to jump off the Kiyomizu stage,"
but if you really jump off from here, won't you die?
Does it mean you should act as though nothing matters to you any more?
You're too realistic, Kagami.
Look, it's about marriage!
I hear this place is famous for their god of marriage.
That's easy to see!
Stone of Love Fortune-Telling
Oh look, they have a love fortune slip!
Let's all try it!
Prayer for Good Marriage
Yeah, let's do it!
I guess I can't tell these apart...
That's obvious.
This one!
#78 Great Fortune
Fortune: Those who pulled this slip are recommended to start fresh by founding a new business, or revising an old rule...
Achieving Love
Special Prayer for Marriage
Love Fortune Slips
Whoa, "Great Fortune!"
You're lucky, Kona-chan.
It was "Good Fortune" for me.
That's good enough!
Let's see what I get...
#7 Half Fortune
Fortune: Those who pulled this slip are destined for more fortunate times, as your worries and hardships from the past will gradually fade away. It's best to begin planning out your future...
"Half Fortune?"
What is this?
Y-You only get half of a fortune, I guess...
It means the other half is misfortune!
Fine with me.
Love fortunes don't matter.
It's so cute!
That looks nice.
Hey, this one's better for ya, Kagami.
Recommended Green Tea
Collon
What do you mean by that...
I'll buy one of these.
Hey Kagami, you forgot something!
I'm not buying that!
Then how about this one!?
No!
You better be careful.
Wishes for Marriage
Hey, this one says, "Konata is my wife."
Alright, everyone's here, right?
We'll have lunch once we get to the hotel.
Off we go.
Please go ahead.
They said Koizumi's character song is in the style of Izam...
Sensei!
Someone's chasing us from behind!
What!?
This is exactly like my Hokkaido trip!
You've gotta call out, "***tel!"
That idiot, he'll do 50 pages!
Driver, sorry, could ya stop for a second?
Hotel Honnou-ji
Again?
To Hiiragi
I would like to talk to you, so please meet me in front of the hotel we're staying in at 9 o'clock tonight.
From a Certain Guy
Doesn't hurt a bit.
Kinkaku-ji: Golden Pavilion Temple; Ginkaku-ji: Silver Pavilion Temple
Kinkaku-ji is gold, but Ginkaku-ji isn't silver, huh?
They wanted it to be mentioned together with Kinkaku-ji,
so they named it Ginkaku-ji, apparently.
Click.
It was never silver to begin with.
Click.
I wonder if they're like Poke***, with sapphire and ruby and stuff!
You're not gonna say anything...?
Wow!
My family's shrine was on the news...
We have one more day.
We've got a perfect plan for our independent time, right?
Tomorrow's gonna be our true school trip!
Let us travel to the holy place!
I see.
Was this okay when you said in front of the hotel?
Yeah.
Did you wait?
So what did want to talk about...?
You're about the only person I can say this to, Hiiragi.
Please give me that doll!
What?
Doll?
You know...
The one you were buying at that souvenir shop in Kiyomizu-dera!
The Yatsuhashi character!
Y-Yatsuhashi-kun?
Yeah, that one!
I really liked it and I wanted one,
but if they saw me buying something like that,
I figure everyone will say something.
Please!
O-Okay...
Thank you!
I'm really thankful!
Don't tell anyone about this!
Yes, I was reading this story about four brothers...
Souryuden?
I can't get this off!
That's right! Come to think of it...
The water vapor inside must've cooled off and formed a vacuum.
They adapted it into an anime a while ago.
If you push the edges slightly,
Wow, I didn't know about that!
some air should be able to enter and it should be easier to open!
I think they covered up to the 4th volume of the original books...
I see!
Well then...
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
Showing off to the very end...
I've looked up all the directions.
Can we really go?
We're only gonna look into the buildings from the outside, so we'll be fine.
Just because we're in Kyoto doesn't mean we have to do that, don't you think?
Tsk tsk tsk.
You don't get the moranticism of otakus!
I don't even want to know!
There's nothing here.
This makes it easier to concentrate on their work.
It's a surprisingly normal building.
They focus on a small number of titles, so this is fine.
Did you really have to buy them in Kyoto?
Princess Moe
What!?
That's embarrassing!
Don't worry about it!
It's a memory of our day together.
Sis, let's take it together!
It's to commemorate our trip, after all!
We came all the way to Kyoto!
And what part of this is Kyoto-like?
Yeah, Tsukasa and I came home safe and sound.
Tsukasa's asleep already, though.
I figured you'd be sulking in bed, Kagami.
Why would I have to do that?
Did you stick that photo of ours somewhere?
I'd never put up something that embarrassing!
Something this embarrassing...
We had the school trip this week,
I sure worked hard!
Now...
I guess I'll play a bunch of net games this weekend!

Yet another explosive episode of Lucky Channel,
this is your navigator, Kogami Akira de picco!
And I'm the assistant,
Ono Daisuke.
We're already on our 21st episode!
That's right, we'll soon reach the finale.
Well then, let's get to this corner:
This Week's Magga-re!
Who!?
What...
I got the water.
Sniff sniff.
What is this!?
It's warm!
How can I drink this!?
I'd rather grab something from the vending machine...
STOP SCREWING AROUND!
You...
You!
What the hell do you think I've put up with!?
You and all those selfish comments of yours!!
Mi-Minoru?
Today, I'm going to say what I want.
You got any idea how I've dealt with this corner of ours!?
Every damn day, I'd work at Coco***...
Turns out I get paid more there than from my voice actor gig!
Thanks to that, now I'm a veteran there!
Before I puff you up each time,
I'm always puffing up meat cakes first!!
Oh.
So I guess you're better off over there.
And why are you sitting there, Ono!?
That's my reserved seat!
You were sold off.
By the producer and director.
What did you say!?
They abandoned me too early!
I'm a late bloomer!
I can suddenly become a Starg*zer after this!
Can ya really?
You?
How dare you make fun of me...
I'm not gonna work with Hine**su, or Lo** and Be***...
I'll quit.
I'll quit this stupid show,
god dammit!!
The hell are they even talking about, "Lucky Channel"--
Let me go, you fools!
What the hell do you think you're filming!?
"Cape of Age Thirty," you say!?
If that's gonna be material,
you know I'm gonna be thirty soon too!
Yeah, I'm talking about you--
Welcome to Idaho!

He can't be a hero like this...

Yes.
