This is the familiar Goddess of Mercy from every time.
Okay then, where did we end last week?
Oh, here
Extend, extend
I'm healed
Here is a review of the previous episode
The teaching staff of Komagata University Affiliated Mishima High School and Mishima Girls High School
held a social mixer.
2 days after that, students of both schools went on a school trip
to Izu Mito Sea Paradise in order to deepen friendship.
Uh oh, I kabe donned.
3 days after that, in the infirmary
That's all. These were 4 consecutive kabe dons.
By the way, this is
nagashi: pour/flowing, don: bam (onomatopoeia) When hot water (used to cook instant noodles) is poured on the stainless steel kitchen sink, the sink often makes a banging sound, a result of the metal reacting to sudden change in temperature
pour bam
Akishima confessed love to Jinbou and got rejected.
That Jinbou seemed to have transferred from Ooki to Ebisawa.
Hachiya-sensei?
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
Ebisawa-kun likes Nakai-san,
Nakai-san likes Hara-sensei, right?
Why do you know!?
Narita-kun!
Narita what's wrong?
Nothing!
Hide!
Here, there, everywhere
I was just doing a little thinking.
I didn't say anything, you know.
Ah, Mishimaru-kun
A yuru-chara of Mishima.
yuru-chara: yurui mascot characters. Often for places/regions. Yuru is from yurui, meaning loose, laid back, unimportant. Kumamon and Funassy are examples of super famous yuru-charas
Sorry to say, this is Mishimaruko-chan, a girl.
She's wearing a bikini.
Oookay, her nipple color is?
You can't!
What!?
You can't take a peek!
The bed is occupied. Fully occupied.
What is it? Donmai-sensei, something's unnatural.
Because I am this way! I'm always unnatural!
Don't mind me, alright, get out!
This is not a talking saloon!
People who are not sick, get out!
No!
This can't be!
We cannot show beyond this, Sorry Youth!
GOMEN NE SEISHUN! Regret from My School Days 5
Sunday Theater
The students of the prestigious Sunzu West High School, Mishima Girls High School, and Tonkou
commute to school using Izu Hakone Railway Sunzu Line
also known as Izupakko.
Once a day a car that has a heart-shaped strap hanging runs.
It is said that a man and a woman who grasp that strap are bound together.
But what occurs in the car is
not always such a romantic event.
Bir
What? Hey move!
What the hell!
Ow ow ow...
Don't get overconfident
Shorty
Ow! Ooww ooow...
Good morning
Yukata!
Oi, what happened Crows!?
Don't look
I said don't look!
Did something happen, Monkey? Who did this to you!?
Just fell off the stairs!
Just how long were the stairs you fell off of!?
Hey, are you okay? Hey!?
Could be my ma fault
Ma?
Yamada-Birckenstock Kyoko Unofficial Fansite
What is this?
Bircken's Friends Society
A fansite that Nishikou students set up single-handedly
Why are there eye lines on our faces?
It's good that you're in. Only my bicep is in.
Aren't these your personal clothes? Taken on holidays?
One wrong step makes them stalkers, you know.
Hara-sensei, let's report this to the police!
Something happened, right?
They're here already.
Please, this way
I told you I don't know!
No no, Nishikou students have confessed without any protest.
That they assaulted you inside the Izupakko.
Like I was telling you, the actual person is saying nothing was done to him
However you look at it, they did this to you, didn't they?
They're saying they want to apologize directly.
Don't mess with me!
I would totally lose face!
Who cares about your face
The other perpetrators don't say anything else? Like motive?
Yes
His girlfriend's fansite?
On it there's a killl notice
Kill!?
IDIOT Delinquent wannabe patheticpatheticpatheticpatheticpatheticpatheticpatheticpathetic killkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkillkill WE GONNA KILL YOU
To that Crows Idiot retorted
Furui Yutaka
Not so superior huh you shit! You're on!
Lame
So, flamed up, is that it?
Nishikou students too were bent on committing the crime.
Ow...
What in the world is this!?
Damn, delete it! Delete it!
By the way!
You guys are dating?
Right, since when have you been dating?
That ain't a topic for now
I've taken over the phone, this is Hachiya.
That's fine
From Hara-sensei. Cultural festival discussion is cancelled, he said.
Oh
Rather than that, what should I do?
What...
Getting married right?
You'd better think about it deliberately...
I will be getting married. I have decided on that.
The problem is that I don't love him.
The other party.
Okay
I can't say "I love you" when I don't love him, right?
But if I don't say it my feelings won't be conveyed, right?
But you do not love him, do you?
That's right.
This is troubling, huh
Have I ever liked anyone in the first place anyway?
Yes I did, Choshu, or Tenryu, or Rickson
Ch?sh? Riki, Tenry? Genichir?, Rickson Gracie are profesional wrestlers/MMA artist
Nobody who wears clothes?
Excuse me
What is it?
About today's joint cultural festival meeting,
Cancelled, right?
I know
Seems Shorty Crows got into some trouble with Nishikou.
Well, that's it then.
Wait!
Yes
You didn't say anything to anyone right!?
I will marry Hara-sensei
No
Really?
Really
You really didn't say anything to anybody!?
Even though 5 days have passed, you didn't say anything!?
Are you telling me to say it?
I won't forgive you if you tell! I'll beat you up!
Go
Oh, income is stable.
It is better to have material possessions.
But that is not supposed to be everything.
Whether one can respect the husband as a person
Respect...
Help me!
All the worse huh
Xavier!
It's impossible. Impossible, impossible! I can't
By the way who is it? A peer?
That's...
No no no
You're not supposed to get out, right
Marriage is something tied by God.
In other words, husband and wife are not two but one person.
To love and honor him is
to love and honor myself too.
Liking someone is difficult, isn't it?
It's easy for the students to adapt to changes in their environment.
Lightly saying "I like you" or
"Go out with me", they're having fun.
Compared to that...
The current me can't help but think of Bible words as hollow.
Once upon a time, there was a student who was plagued by the same distress.
14 years ago, before the chapel was built anew.
Loving a person is difficult, isn't it?
The friend of someone I liked confessed his feelings to me.
He's a very earnest person.
That earnestness hurts.
It pierces me.
If only I could receive that earnest love,
and loved him,
everything would be rounded up nicely.
My sister?
Is that so
If only I had been able to offer up some words from the Bible,
maybe she would have been saved.
I was young too
I ended up pulling away.
And then
cornered her.
I am different from my sister.
That's true, you're totally different.
That's why, you won't be a coward. You'll be fine, I'm sure.
Uh, what do you mean?
Just because you like someone,
you will not lose yourself.
Satoshi is?
Yeah
These days, he's been coming to the field every day.
Good morning
It rained yesterday, so the drainage got bad.
I piled a mound.
Could you talk to him?
If he's aware of his sins, he doesn't have to come anymore.
I'm sorry
Why are you apologizing?
Uhm
Has Yuko-san ever got in touch since then?
There's no way she has, is there?
Where she is and what she's doing
So, the last thing you spoke with her?
After the chapel fire, we never once...
No, we did talk one time.
When was it?
Yuko, at school and around the neighborhood,
she was treated like a tumor.
One day, a Tonkou student talked to her.
That was me.
Huh?
That was me.
Good morning
Good morning!
Stop it
Someone talked to me.
The was somebody who talked to me.
Good morning, he said
A boy from Tonkou
Since the 2nd term started, that was the first time I got talked to.
Then, so what?
That's it
Don't stand around with that depressed face.
It would make it hard for customers to go in!
Sorry
The next day she left home
So nothing more since then with Yuko.
If I had spoken kind words to Yuko at that time,
it's possible she could have gotten back on her feet.
I see
The one who talked to her was you, huh
Thank you
Heisuke again missed a chance to tell the truth.
Mai-san
I can't
If students saw me in a place like this...
Wait!
The image of Donmai-sensei would...
I will rip apart that sort of thing!
There are women who suit Ikkyu-san better!
Ikkyu (1394?1481) was an eccentric, iconoclastic Japanese Zen Buddhist monk and poet
Mai-san...
Healthier, younger, more energetic
Girls who don't get upset stomachs if they eat kalbi or harami right away.
meat cuts for japanese bbq; kalbi: short ribs, harami: tender meat around the diaphragm
My name is Ippei.
No way, what have I been saying?
Ikkyu-san is fine.
The tiger inside your heart, I will extract it out from the folding screen!
Does that mean...
marriage?
I'm sorry.
But, as a last resort.
I've come to a place where "don't mind" doesn't cut it anymore.
In any case, how about going to a hotel?
Haa!?
I don't know what kind of a guy he is but
maybe the type who unexpectedly lets out bold moves on the bed?
Check please.
You haven't ordered yet.
Then, eel liver and shochu.
shochu: Japanese spirit distilled from sweet potatoes, rice, etc.
Coming right up
What's that?
You don't know?
Mishima FM's Sorry Eel.
Live phone corner.
Generally speaking, Catholicism is too stiff.
Says marriage is made by God or stuff like that,
God wouldn't look at such a marginal thing like marriage between man and woman one by one, I say
Love the first person you allowed into your heart over a lifetime.
To remain married for the rest of your life is happiness.
You have a problem with that?
Then, is my son a no?
Huh?
Won't you try allowing Heisuke into your heart?
He's not a reliable guy but he's got good points.
Where?
Saying it would only make it self-glorification
Actually, I recommended you to Heisuke once.
What, single-handedly doing that, no way. What the, stop it. What!?
So, how was it?
How...
That super-S woman teacher?
Lately, you're getting along quite well aren't you?
There were times when her eyes looking at you were womanly, you know.
I felt like he wasn't totally against the idea.
"Not totally against the idea" what exactly is that?
Dunno. Look it up in the dictionary.
I'm doing it even if you don't tell me to
"Not absolutely against"
"Not necessarily disagreeing. Also, quite good"
I don't get it now.
Hello, this is Kaba-san.
Huh?
What are you "Sorry!" about?
Principal?
Who are you calling?
What does 3D want?
I wonder?
He said something like Kaba-san, or Sorry, he must be drunk
That's not the principal!
It's this
Hello, this is Kabayaki Santarou.
Oh no, I'm sorry. I was mistaken.
Uh that's funny
Can you laugh after I say something funny?
Also, don't prattle on by yourself
Radio name "I don't know how to love"-san
What are you "Sorry!" about?
Why do I have to apologize!?
Because this is that kind of corner
You can't get to like your marriage prospect, is that right?
Why do you know that!?
Because you sent an email saying that.
Oh, okay okay okay
That matter is fine now.
Don't bother.
Haa!?
Even after pondering about it I can't reach a conclusion.
Well, from now on until the end of the year will be crammed with events anyway.
At some point I think I'd find the good points.
Rather than that, I got it.
What did you get?
Kaba-san
could it be
Kaba-san is because it's Kabayaki Santarou?
That's right
That cracks me up!
He hung up
Uh let's move on to the next call
Is this Sorry Center?
No, not Sorry Center but "Sorry Youth!"
"Whom I want to say "Sorry!" to is my daughter who left home" is that right?
Don't prattle on by yourself
Yes?
Yuko, are you listening? Yuko
I know I wronged you.
At that time, living on took everything I got.
What you guys the family were feeling, what you were struggling about,
I didn't have the time nor energy to think about those.
Uh...
Even when you caused that incident too,
I was only thinking about myself.
But you know, Yuko
that we didn't file missing person was because we were thinking of your future.
Your mom said we shouldn't make it a big deal of it as much as possible.
She stopped me while crying.
She'd come home one of these days, let's believe in Yuko, she said.
Excuses are unsightly, huh
In the end,
we might have been more concerned about our face and public image.
In any case, I want to apologize to you.
For not being able to understand...
I'm sorry
That's all
Next is an announcement from Mishima Tourism Association.
Prattled on by himself!
What was that just now, was that a recording!?
No, right!?
Live telephone right!
What is it with today!
Relay Race to Hakone has come again this year. From Mishima grand shrine...
What a day!
... a white hot race running 40 km to Lake Ashi in Hakone.
Will the prestigious Sunzu West High win back to back 3 times?
To?
Yes, we're thinking of participating in this.
This?
You're going to run?
To Hakone?
Why?
Because we want to win against Nishikou.
It's frustrating isn't it!
Yukata's minced was completely trampled!
Face/honor is mentsu, minched is menchi
Yutaka's face okay
You want to give them New Year's money right?
Bir messed up otoshidama (New Year's money given to kids) and otoshimae (settling a fight or taking heat for what one did)
Want to settle this!
Since you dated this guy
your Japanese has gotten worse, don't you think?
This guy?
Yes, but taking the bait to fight was idiotic too
I'm not that close with this guy to undertake that kind of risk.
This guy!?
Anyway this guy's legs are fast,
setting aside the fight, we may just be able to win at relay race.
Right?
For me, I just want to run!
What's wrong?
You're crying?
No way.
Gross!
No, but well!
But you know!
Hara-sensei!
Hey what did you all do!?
That's not it, Sensei.
Not that.
I am so touched
Gross
There is a reason for Heisuke's losing his composure.
Well you know, Tonkou and Sanjo students who were said to be oil and water
unite together and will participate in a relay race!
Last laps!
She's fast.
Nakai Takako was in Inter High
For real?
The boys would be Ooki, Ebisawa
And Furui
That's right. Before, this was unthinkable.
Plus it was the students' independent will!
Amazing, amazing
Tonkou students and Sanjo students who are said to be natural enemies
Tonkou students and Sanjo students who are said to be habu and mongoose
habu is a kind of venomous snakes mongoose was brought in from India to fight habu
Tonkou students and Sanjo students who are said to be watermelon and tempura....
I get it already
That boys and girls who wouldn't even look each other in the eye until recently
got their minds as one this fast.
If the fire hadn't happened, they would have been one earlier you know
Mom
Sorry
I was wondering if maybe Hei-chan had forgotten that
There's no way I could have forgotten it, is there?
I know.
I will tell everything after the cultural festival ends.
Hurry go to bed
Good night
Ippei-tan
-tan: suffix to make -san cutesy, clingy. Possibly a mix of -san and -chan
Not Ippei-tan
Of course not Ippei-tan, this is Heisuke-tan's room!
I'm sorry! I thought something was wrong.
What is wrong? The floor is wrong!
Your room is on the 1st floor. This is the 2nd floor.
Hey hey hey what the hell are you doing!?
I can call you "you" already, right. You're younger than me anyway.
Anyway, you're too thoughtless!
What is it, testing whether I'm gay!? Sorry, 100% not gay
Ehh, what, what now!?
I'm thankful that you've continued to play with me for a long time.
You were playing around huh
But, that too might be ending already
Eh, what, what is it!?
Got weary of married life! It got sexless!
It's only 3 times a week! Before it was pretty much...
The frank confession of Ippei's wife Elena is
absolutely not Sunday 9 pm broadcast-able material for the living room.
Shut it! What time do you think it is!
Wasn't it abnormal in the first place?
It's not just about the frequency!
Before he used to say "I love you" 20 times a day,
it decreased to 3 times a week, texts too,
Texts, you both are home most of the time aren't you?
We shouldn't text if we're together!?
Can you be quiet?
He has a woman outside! No doubt about it!
He doesn't go outside, does he? Aniki is generally at home, isn't he?
Maybe it's a body double!
Can I go to sleep already? Since I've got morning practice tomorrow.
Maybe he's been using a copy robot
Elenachooo!
Hey the copy robot is calling! Hurry and go there!
Elenachooo!
Don't call out your wife's name at 2 am in the middle of the night!
You'd be the laughingstock of the neighborhood!
Elenachooo!
Tonkou-Sanjou mixed team commenced morning practice.
Then next, shall we get Furui to read it?
He went home
Went home early, I didn't hear anything about that. When?
Immediately after eating lunch.
Seriously?
With the Relay Race to Hakone less than a week away
The Lone Crow Furui Yutaka is in distress without anybody knowing.
Sanjo and Tonkou mixed team also competing! Mishimaru-kun appearance! Mishima Croquettes stall!
Yo Tonkou's Little Gang Leader-san
You're too small I almost missed you
Let me tell you this
we have gathered people who got admitted based on track and field recommendation.
The Purple Monkey Army
had better go back to the mountains.
Alright. If you win we'll disband the fanclub.
On the other hand if we win
break up with Bircken.
Hey. Hey wait, punk
Running away huh!?
Shorty!
I'm sorry, kinda
Yes?
The relay race. It should be me.
Guiding them is supposed to be my job, unfortunately I got this.
Ah, no no, I just run alongside them.
To be able to run alongside is happiness
Don't get complacent!
There's a call for you
Yes
Blessed with a chance to promote the merger within the prefecture,
the leaders of both schools are unusually taking this seriously.
Ooh, it's purple
We cannot budge on purple. Since our uniform is purple too.
Abe-san. Turn back for a bit.
Yes
Mishima Croquettes
Croquettes and the snack bar financed 50-50, so
I wonder about an 18-year-old carrying the name of a snack bar on her back...
Uh, it's embarrassing
For the real thing, it would be the school name, but since it's not determined yet.
Then, let's decide now
That's right. The priest isn't here too.
Then, St. Mishima Girls High School East
That's a bus stop!
Who called you?
Koma Uni Affiliated Mishima High School should be fine, no?
Like, so ordinary.
What's wrong with that!
From now on we would be referred to with that name forever, you know
It's true that unconventional naming does not permeate.
Like for "Help me Mom" scam, I guess
Hachiya-sensei!
What! We are deciding on the school name
Oh, sorry
Rokushima High School, since it's Mishima and St. Mishima, added together Rokushima
Mi in Mishima means three. Roku is six
How about this, Buddhist and Christian schools, so
Buchri High School
You got no taste
Uhm, may I?
Thinking if the merger happens, I've sat on this for a while
Taking St. Mishima's "Sei" and Suruga Province's "Sun"
Sei: Saint/holy Suruga Province: the central part of Shizuoka Prefecture. It was sometimes called Sunsh?.
Seisun High School?
Seishun High School!
Seishun means youth also part of the title of this drama
It's a pun though
Seishun High School
Koma Uni Affiliated Seishun High School
What do you think?
Great isn't it!
I think it's great
For something you thought of, not bad
Yes this is Seishun High School
I don't understand why you answered the phone when it wasn't even ringing, but
It includes the "holy" character too, let's discard the past
get released from old customs,
it has a feel of being reborn, don't you think?
What do you think?
We will be graduating anyway
Don't say such a sad thing
Okay then
Let's settle with Komagata University Affiliated Seishun High School!
So, what is it?
You were calling my name earlier, right?
Yes this is Seishun High School
Uh Furui got in a dispute with a Nishikou student again, and the police got involved...
Haa!?
This wasn't the time to decide on a name!
Excuse me
Hey Furui
Hei-chan
I'm getting suspended, aren't I?
You, sit down
I was still taking statements
How is it?
Us?
Getting involved in violence is cause for suspension. Over there?
There is no precedence for a thing like this for us
By the way, what are you going to do about the relay race!?
Everyone is working hard to get your revenge, you know
It's none of their business
You wipe your own ass!
Don't just keep saying lines heard from somewhere!
So noisy! Anyway! I won't go on the race!
Furui! Hachiya-sensei too!
I apologize for making a ruckus
I'm sorry
Because of that, Furui-kun will withdraw, apparently.
We have to choose somebody as the replacement.
Anybody want to do it?
If Furui-kun doesn't run, is there a meaning to our participating?
Anyway, without Furui we can't win, can we?
We're doing this for him, so if he's not in, it's demoralizing.
I know right? Just because Tonkou got into a quarrel with Nishikou, it's none of Sanjo's business, isn't it?
So, I guess we should quit
Nakai-san?
Handa-kun?
I want to run!
Bircken, you know something don't you?
I was told not to say anything, so I don't know
I see...hmm?
That's why, don't tell you hear this from Bir okay
Oh you're telling
He...
is al dente.
How many minutes? How long should it be boiled?
Ah, part-time job. I got it wrong. He has a part-time job.
Part-time job in Japanese is arubaito, which comes from arbeit
Isn't arbeit German?
Is that why you go home early from time to time and not come to practice?
Then you should have said so
It's not like Tonkou forbids part-time jobs
I can't do that
His family is poor, he's the oldest of 7 siblings,
The dad has a drinking problem and does not contribute to the family finances.
The mom works as a live-in worker at a Japanese inn in Atami.
Poor guy....
So, there's no other way, in order to earn money for their living expenses and school tuition...
That's me!
He lied!
That just now was my profile!
Why did you tell such a lie?
Sorry
What is the truth?
A rarity for our school, he's an admitted student from out of the prefecture.
His family home is a famous temple in Kyoto and he's a single child so it's determined that he will succeed it.
Currently he lives with his mother in a lux apartment with automatic lock behind the station.
A rich scion, aren't you.
He is.
Why do you have a job?
What kind of a job is it?
That, he totally refuses to tell
Could it be, it's a dangerous job?
Promise me you absolutely will not tell anybody
Also...
Sign this
Confidentiality Oath
That serious?
It's not that I suspect you but
that's the rules.
I'm fine
I can't hold any more secrets!
Okay
Come with me
To kill?
DANGER DO NOT ENTER
Wait, what?
What is this place? Here?
Dead body! Dead body! Our eyes met Our eyes met!
Hei-chan! Calm down! Hei-chan, look carefully
I am Mishimaru-kun
Furui?
Mishimaru-kun
I'm taking over the speechless Heisuke
First I will introduce Mishimaru-kun's profile
On April 29, 2011
As mascot characters to commemorate 70th anniversary of Mishima city political enforcement,
Chosen from the general public entries were Mishimaru-kun and Mishimaruko-chan.
Odd hairstyle modeled after ginkgo
Shorts that express water streams
On his forehead the letter "mi" from Mishima is engraved
Since birth cannot live outside of Mishima
A miserable fairy
I got scouted, that's how it started.
I was in front of the station, there was a man about 150 cm tall.
He was carrying a staff about 150 cm long and approached me.
Stand up straight
Sorry
Pass
That person is Nakano-san,
a suits actor specializing in local characters.
Follow me
He was charismatic
Tochigi's Tochisuke, Miyagi's Za-Ousama, Okayama's Denchuu-kun,
He acts as multiple local characters in various regions.
Once its popularity is established, he bequeaths it to a successor.
So you caught the attention of that charismatic guy.
Yeah. Mainly it was my height.
At the beginning,
Nakano-san played Mishimaruko-chan and supported me.
I didn't think of it as anything more than to earn pocket money.
Mishimaru-kun, aren't you taking this job lightly?
I am not taking this job lightly.
React more, Mishimaru-kun!
No, if Furui-kun's response is dull, I
"I" is said in female form
No, I look like I'm spinning in circles!
This "I" is said in male form
I have been meaning to do it, though
Not enough, not enough!
When you wear a full-body suit you need to move 3 times more! 3 times!
Because that gets conveyed.
I'm sorry
Let's go.
Let's redeem ourselves through Mishimaru Mambo
Yes
The turning point was when I visited a children's home by myself.
Let's play again, okay? Bye bye
Mishimaru-kun is not good spirits today
That morning I fought with my mom about hardness of the rice.
What happened?
Because that I was a bit irritable.
You were scolded by your mom, weren't you?
I'll give you this so cheer up
It was conveyed.
However trivial it is, I can't lie
My eyes opened then, so to say
I came to feel the worth of the job
You didn't have doubts?
The gap between the usual Furui at school
Well, the yankee was like a character too, in some way.
yankee: delinquent
Nonetheless, I absolutely don't want to be found out.
Even by friends
Even by my girlfriend
You'd be made fun of, huh
Not that!
I do not want to destroy the children's dream
That's what the city hall people told me too
That's why I had you sign it
Look at this
The yellow part is Mishimaru-kun's schedule
So packed, isn't it!
By the way,
I'm in charge where F is written.
It's starting to make sense, kinda.
F increases gradually, right?
In other words, Nakano-san intends you to be his successor
I'm delighted by his sentiment, but
I have school. Although I can get to university through elevator,
after I graduate I have to go home to Kyoto and succeed the family temple.
It's escalator, okay
Setting aside the fact that unlike Hei-chan I wasn't born and raised in Mishima,
in this unfamiliar Mishima city
I finally found my purpose in life, but
I have to quit someday.
At such a time, I saw that poster
MIshimaru-kun's apppearance!
Seriously?
Unbelievably, double booked.
Like, I got desperate.
If I riot I'll get suspended.
If you get suspended you can get by not doing the relay race, huh
Sorry
In short, to you now Mishimaru-kun is over relay race.
Over class unity, over winning against Nishikou,
Mishimaru-kun is more important.
There is a replacement for Furui, but for Mishimaru-kun...
Mishimaru-kun, Mishimaru-kun
Mishimaru-kun, Mishimaru-kun?
Is that so? I never knew Furui-kun thought of it that seriously.
I did not know either.
That he was Mishimaru-kun
He has potential, you know
I know it.
Me too, even though I look like this
I was quite unruly when I was young.
He has the same smell as I did
However, to me
no, to the entire Tonkou and Sanjou students too,
there is no replacement for Furui.
Could you please be inside Mishimaru-kun in place of Furui
on October 17 at Relay Race to Hakone?
I beg you!
I understand
is what I want to say but, I can't.
Why?
On that day in Kagawa prefecture
I have work as Tori Bugyou Honetsuki Juujuu-kun.
Tori Bugyou Honetsuki roughly translate to Magistrate Bone-in
Tori Bugyou Honetsuki Juujuu-kun, is it?
A character I've been nurturing secretly
Same as Tokushima's Udatsumaru
I can't lose
You really love them, huh, yurucharas
A ship leaving the port...
I'm home
Why is Mishima-kun in our house!?
It's Mishimaru-kun
Heisuke-san brought him here
Would beer be okay?
Yeah
You surprised me
Straighten your legs and make yourself comfortable
What about a beer? Anyway, he could just take it off
Elena said that too, but he's so dedicated
I'm home.
Ippei-tan, welcome home!
We have a guest!
Welcome
"Welcome," what a shallow reaction!
Is there no chance at all?
I'm sorry I can't be of any help
Then, in place of Furui how about I get inside it?
Impossible
I understand.
I'll do something.
Also, earlier
you said "yuruchara"
But we are not in any way loose.
We do this desperately.
We have our honor too, and
we do this with our lives on it.
I've never thought of myself as being loose.
Nakano-san
If yurucharas have self-awareness of their own looseness,
it's over.
So that's how it is, Furui will be suspended from school for 1 week.
I'm really sorry.
What "sorry"! What are you going to do about the relay race!?
That's why a replacement runner...
Shut it, Droopy Kappa, I'm asking Furui
Jinbou-san!
Hara-sensei, I'm not convinced either.
If suspension, it can be done after the relay race ends
But if a student who is disgraced be let to run, there would be an outcry.
There was?
Not yet, but...
It's fine already
We know that without Furui we can't win.
There's no point in participating.
Let's quit. We'll withdraw.
Wait a minute, you don't know if you don't try!
Haa!? You're the one who got into trouble, what's with that idealism!?
Sorry
But you all have practiced!
That's right.
And you're ruining all that now, aren't you?
I already apologized for that, didn't I?
I can't be there, but
I want you all to take revenge at my enemy!
What are you pissed off for!?
When boys are involved, in the end things don't go well, huh
The academic tests too, boys dragged us down and we ranked last.
How about putting in quiz elements and make it Quiz Relay Race to Hakone?
Wouldn't this situation be bad for the cultural festival too?
Problem, of the following which famous person stayed at Hakone Fujiya Hotel?
No 1 Madonna, no 2 John Lennon, no 3 Michael J Fox
This isn't the time, is it!
I ignored you once, read the atmosphere!
Sorry
Handa, what do you think?
I just want to run.
I want to see that Handa-kun
Haa, what the heck!? Only observing then
Bircken, how about you?
Not no 3 right?
Not the quiz, the relay race
Regarding Furui saying he won't be participating, what do you think?
Losing face, huh
Whose face?
Whose?
I don't know. I don't even know what exactly "mentsu" means.
Narita, how is this read?
Menko
The characters can be read menko (a game) but more commonly mentsu (face/honor) mentsu has been used throughout this episode
You never betray expectations, do you
This is read as "mentsu"
Originally in Chinese means face, or honor,
or appearance, or public image.
That kind of meaning.
In English, Hachiya-sensei?
Hono
Honor
It means prestige or pride, or trust.
Something that when it's hurt causes conflict.
Ever since my days as a student, Tonkou and Nishikou have been compared and made fun of.
By Sanjo students
Dating a Tonkou student is lame and unspeakable.
Might as well date a smart and good at all sports Nishikou student.
Dating a Tonkou student is cause for suspension, even an unreasonable school regulation was written.
That's why they hide it and date sneakily.
Tonkou students did not have prestige, nor pride, nor honor.
Now it has become the times that when Nishikou students make fun of Tonkou students,
before the boys, the girls get mad first.
I was touched by that.
Since coed class was established, prestige, pride, and honor were born.
It's a marvelous thing!
But if you withdraw from participating here, whose honor will be crushed?
Not only Tonkou students', the honor of Sanjo students' too will be completely crushed.
That's right, it's no longer a problem between Tonkou and Nishikou students.
The honor of Komagata University Affiliated Seishun High School is on the line.
Ah, we haven't told you have we?
Not exactly the best time but, the school name was decided.
Seishun High School
Lame!
No way, it is isn't it?
By the way, if we are participating, unless we follow through it to the end it would be meaningless, I think
It's irresponsible to quit midway too.
Why is Sensei covering for
Furui-kun who can't explain the reason properly?
This is hard to comprehend.
If we lose
I think we won't forgive Furui-kun.
It's only hard to comprehend, bear with it!
Because that is youth!
That's right.
Not comprehending is youth.
I said that just now.
I'm sorry
In other words, comprehending means you'll forget it
When you become adults what you recall is all incomprehensible memories.
That is youth!
Am I right?
Don't confirm
Come on Furui, say a greeting or two!
I have my own honor
and so I can't be on the relay race.
You all, in order to protect your honor,
please win at any cost!
Sensei
Nakai-san, we're counting on you as the first runner.
Yes
I don't feel like I wasn't taken in by a real smooth talk but
in any case, I will do my best.
By the way, uhm...
Is my homeroom teacher Hara-sensei?
Or Hachiya-sensei?
Currently, it's me.
Mm, something wrong?
No, it's nothing.
From the next day on, hellish training began for Seishun High School's relay race unit.
Furui Yutaka's substitute runner was determined to be Narita-kun.
Sakuma's G will be the reward!
Furui-kun too battled every day for his honor.
Mishimaru-kun is here!
Hey, Mishimaru-kun, give me one more
This person hasn't got any, one more
Let's go Bircken, come on it's embarrassing, people are looking
Let's dance everyone!
Mishimaru Mambo!
On the other hand, there were also people who stop caring about face.
It's you huh
Uh, weeds are growing, so
Potato harvest is over already.
Now is the least busy times.
Don't take my job!
I'm sorry
Got to plant sweet potatoes from next week so it'll be busy.
May I come?
Sir!
How is it going? Looking like you can win?
The rest is up to Sakuma-chan's cheer and Hei-chan's lead, isn't it
If first runner Nakai-san gets a big lead,
and Handa, Ebisawa keep the leading position
It's said that Nishikou's track and field team isn't like what it was in the past, too
During my brother's time they were far and away the best though.
Your brother was from Nishikou?
Yeah, since unlike me he's a prodigy
I'm borrowing your computer
Who would've thought that he'd be such a character after getting married huh
Buddhism affair
Donmai-sensei?
Hi, long time no see
Your brother is married?
I haven't said that? He got a really young wife.
Yes yes, big breasted
Ippei-tan!?
I didn't hear.
No way no way, we talked about it here didn't we?
That we could have touched the brother's wife's boobs if we had gotten above 70 on the tests.
Then you should have let the girls give you the answers.
We don't want to knead a woman's breast to the extent of borrowing the power of a woman!
I wasn't listening
I don't listen to your talk seriously
Ow
Because I take it with a grain of salt
Ow ow
Donmai-sensei
I'm fine
You want to look up "Buddhism affair"?
Shall I look it up on Miyukipedia?
The mom's name is Hara Miyuki
Mom...
An affair is a charge against the rule to avoid sexual misconduct.
Unrighteous sexual act with a man that is not one's husband or a woman that is not one's wife.
Those who commit immoral sexual act will go to hell!
Ippei-tan!
What happened Ippei-tan!?
Adults, and children too, have their own intentions.
The 3rd Relay Race to Hakone has started
Departing from Mishima grand shrine, approximately 40 km until Hakone's Lake Ashi,
7 runners compete.
Last year's winner, Sunzu West High
Mishima Central High, Mishima Agricultural High, Sunzu Commerce High
and our Komagata University Affiliated Seishun High School
"Seishun High School" is not bad, huh
What's wrong Bircken?
He doesn't come after all, Yukata
Also, Mishima city's authorized mascot characters
Mishimaru-kun too has come to give his support.
Furui-kun has duly come too.
The starter is the chief priest of Eirakuji, Hara Heita-san
Thank you
So can Seishun High School relay race unit
really crush the prestigious Nishikou and win?
We're counting on you, Nakai-san!
On your mark
For not settling this, Sorry Youth!
The bright expression on those kids' faces, the sight of them running through the prefecture
The victory of our Seishun High School is unwavering
If you still have kindness in you, leave me alone
