Everything's fine, everything's fine...
He said he would be home today.
Oh?
Is that you, Char?
Ichika, hey...
It's a wonderful day today.
What?
No, I didn't mean that...
Umm... I'm Charlotte Dunoa from the IS Academy.
Is Orimura-kun home?
What are you talking about?
I-
I?
I'm here.
Stupid me! Stupid me!
How can I be speaking like I'm his girlfriend?
I see.
Then come on in.
Is it really okay?
You came to hang out, right?
Or do you have somewhere else you need to go?
No, not in the very least! Not at all!
You're so weird.
He called me weird.

So this is Ichika's home...
Hey, Ichika.
I've heard before that you do the household chores.
Yeah. Chifuyu-nee is usually busy, so she doesn't come home for long periods of time.
I-I see...
Ichika would surely make a great husband.
Husband?!
Here's some barley tea.
It might be a bit weak since I made it this morning.
Right, thank you.
All alone with Ichika...
Huh?
Hmm?
Oh?
It's Cecilia.
Oh, hello.
How are you doing, Ichika-san?
I just so happened to be nearby, so I dropped in...
Nearby?
Around here?
T-This!
It's cake from a dessert specialty shop famous for being delicious!
Huh?
Oh, so there are several different kinds.
Y-Yes, there are.
I thought we could be alone together...
Why is Charlotte-san here?
Could she have been planning to outsmart us?
It really is delicious!
Say, how about we share a bite or two?
That's a good idea.
Isn't that what you call feeding each other?
Oh, that sounds nice.
Oh, but you won't want something a guy had in his mouth.
You two can just-
That doesn't matter to me at all!
It's no problem, Ichika!
We'd also like to try all of the cakes!
I-I see...
Then I guess it's fine.
Then I would like to try Ichika-san's cake first.
Yes, I want you to feed me!
Okay...
Then Cecilia can go first.
How is it?
It's delicious...
Next!
I'm next, right?
Okay.
H-How is it?
I love it.
I-I see...
Then I'll have some of your-
Wait just a second!
We will be feeding you next!
That's right!
That's only proper manners!
No, come to think of it, I could just use my own fork and eat it myself.
That's not right!
That's wrong!
Now!
No need to hold back.
Here, open up!
Why are the both of you here, too?
It means everyone came up with the same idea.
If you were all planning on coming, someone could have at least warned me beforehand.
It wasn't my choice.
I suddenly noticed I had some free time this morning.
That's right.
What's the matter?
Do you have a problem with the fact that we came without notice?
Are you going to hide your porn?
I was planning to surprise you by arriving out of the blue.
So? Are you happy?
I envy this confidence of hers.
What should we do now?
It's hot outside, so should we do something inside?
Sounds good!
Of course, I came precisely on the day that Ichika would be home.
If we go outside and happen to meet the Gotanda siblings, everything will be in ruins!
I want to learn something new about Ichika, no matter how small.
I want to see Ichika's room if I have the chance.
The fact that this is Instructor Orimura's house is a reason for interest.
Well then...
What's something we can do with this many people?
Oh, it's a game from my motherland!
If I remember correctly, you make random things out of play-doh, and you're supposed to figure out what they are.
All right.
I shall question Laura.
I shall accept.
Is it something on Earth?
Yes.
Is it larger than a human?
Yes, it is.
Is it made by humans?
No.
No more questions.
Let me hear your answer.
An oil well!
Wrong.
Why an oil well?
It might have been a bit too difficult for you.
The answer is: mountain.
What?
A mountain.
No, wait a second...
Mountains aren't this pointy.
You can't say that.
Mt. Everest looks like that.
Then you have to say that it's Everest or no one will understand.
What a noisy man you are.
And you still call yourself my wife?
I've been telling you that I don't!
What's this?
So you were the ones being so noisy.
Orimura-sensei.
Welcome home, Chifuyu-nee.
You got home early.
Did you have lunch?
If you haven't, then I can make something.
No, I had something already.
Then I should make you some tea.
Which would you prefer, hot tea or cold tea?
Let me see...
Since I just out of the heat outside, I'd like some cold tea.
Got it.
What is with these two?
They look like husband and wife.
So the instructor is like this at home?
Huh?
Oh, I'll be leaving now.
I have work to do.
Just now?
Unlike you students, teachers are busy during summer vacation.
You can all relax here.
I won't allow you to sleep over, though.
By the way, Shinonono.
Yes?
You should see your mother once in a while.
I heard that you haven't been home in a while.
You're right.
Well, then.
Being a teacher is tough after all.
Is something the matter?
Ichika, you looked like Orimura-sensei's wife.
Oh?
You're always so attached to Chifuyu-san.
It's normal. We're siblings after all.
You're the only one who believes that.
Huh?
What do you mean by that?
I should start preparing dinner.
I'll go shopping.
Then I'll make something.
I will make something as well.
Then I think I should also help out.
I will help as well, of course.
I suppose it can't be avoided.
I shall also-
There's no need for you to help!
Oh?
Doing this reminds me of the days I spent shopping with my mother.
In the military, we were on a cooking duty rotation.
I shall show you my skills as taught to me by the instructor!
Why can't I cook?
I wish to demonstrate my skills as the representative of Great Britain.
The British people would find your representation of them troublesome.
What do you mean by that?
You haven't gone home to the shrine yet?
Even if Chifuyu-san hadn't told me to, I was thinking of stopping in and saying hi.
I see.
Yukiko-obasan would be happy.
Actually, Ichika...
At the summer festival this year, I-
Ichika!
Do something about her!
Cecilia won't listen to us! She insists on cooking something herself!
What are they doing?
I will never accept that!
What do you have against my cooking?
Calm down.
I will have you enjoy it no matter what, Ichika-san!
This potato is so difficult to cut!
You fail at choosing potatoes!
Don't say something so rude.
Nobody chose better potatoes than I did when I was in Germany!
Houki, weren't you about to tell me something at the supermarket?
No, it's nothing.
More importantly, are you okay with leaving her as is?
We need more red.
I think we're too late.
C-Cecilia, I don't think you should help us cook...
I can't stand to do nothing while everyone else is working.
You need not worry.
My cooking's trademark is to make a decisive recovery at the very end.
Cooking isn't martial arts or a competition...
Ichika, Ichika!
Look at what I've made!
Could that be...
It's oden.
There's no need to repeat yourself
My adjutant in Germany taught me how to make this.
Oden in Japan is made like this, right?
What kind of Japanese culture was your adjutant familiar with?
What the?
It's reckless to heat pots and pans using laser beams!
Failure leads to success!
I'll succeed next time!
Cecilia Alcott presents: IS cooking!
You don't need to care so much for us.
Can you set the table?
Y-You're right!
You should do that!
Why must I do it?
Why is everyone trying to force me to not cook?
I absolutely cannot understand this!
You're quite considerate at home, Orimura-sensei.
You're letting the kids have fun for themselves.
If I were there, they wouldn't be able to relax.
Doesn't that bother you as a sister?
Your brother is with his girlfriends.
About that...
Remember when we had that extended field trip?
I told them something rather unnecessary back then.
By that you mean?
I told those five girls that I wouldn't let them have Ichika.
What?
Well, you know...
I said that without much thought.
I didn't put any deep meaning into it.
But it seems the girls think that I'm a rival.
Orimura-sensei is just like Ichika-kun.
Oh? How so?
There are no limits to your kindness.
Maya, you fail at observing men.
You're right.
Everyone grows up.
Doing all kinds of things, and all kinds of things happen...
You sound like a granny.
How rude!
You're older than me!
Oh, I'm sorry.
It's this time of year again.
Houki-chan, there you are.
Oh, yes.
I'm sorry I left on my own.
It's fine.
It's been a while.
Surely you would want to wander around.
It's great that you came.
We were wondering who we could ask to do the Kagura dance.
I would be happy to be of use.
Yukiko-obasan...
If my sister hadn't invented the IS...
I would have been able to live in this house forever.
I wouldn't have to keep moving around.
I would have been with Ichika all this time.
Houki-chan, after you're finished, would you take care of the omikuji counter?
Got it.
What is Ichika doing right now?
Yo.
Why are you here?
I figured you would be here.
You said that you'd go home soon.
And today's the summer festival.
So you remembered?
How cold of you.
You could have told me.
That's...
I can't tell him...
I can't tell him that I was too embarrassed for him to see me dressed like this.
What if he...
You don't look good in girly clothes.
What if he told me something like that...
I would never recover!
Amazing.
I'm surprised you look so professional.
Huh?
So you look good in girly clothes, too.
I was surprised that you looked so beautiful.
Oh? What's wrong?
This is a dream!
It must be a dream!
Let me wake up right now!
What are you saying?
Houki-chan, you can go have some fun for a while.
Oh? But I have work-
It's fine if you come back by the time the Kagura dance starts.
I'll find you a yukata.
Yukata...
I can walk together with Ichika in a yukata?
And Ichika said that I look good in girly clothes!
Ichika-san! Long time no see!
Ran.
T-This is...
Why do things always turn out like this?
She said she was separated from her brother.
Since we have the chance, why don't we walk around together?
I'm Gotanda Ran.
I've always heard so much about you from Ichika-san, Shinonono-san.
I-I've heard about you, too.
You were Ichika's friend's little sister, right?
Yes.
My stupid brother always troubles Ichika-san.
I've never seen you in a yukata, Ran.
You look quite good.
Oh, really?
Thank you so much!
Damn you, Ichika!
You told me so many lies about your friend's sister avoiding you...
There's no doubt that she has a crush on you.
He only told me about stuff like samurai and bushido when he was talking about her.
He never told me that she was this pretty!
Well then, what should we eat first?
Don't you have to look for your brother?
Oh, it's fine.
I'm going to be a high school student next year.
I can't have my brother with me all the time.
I see.
You aren't going to be a kid forever.
Yep.
It's lively this year, too.
Ichika has always been insensitive like this.
It sure is.
But...
What was he thinking when he tried to kiss me the other day?
U-Um, Houki-san?
Huh?
Ichika-san told me.
You're great at piloting IS, right?
Yes, Houki is amazing.
She showed great skill in the extended field trip we had.
No, it was nothing noteworthy!
It was all thanks to everyone else!
I hear you're a kendo champion outside the IS.
You've been strong ever since you were little.
So cool!
I admire you!
Thank you.
Ran!
Where have you gone, Ran?!
Onii-chan is here to find you!
Onii!
I'm sorry, but have you seen my little sister?
She's about this height and she's wearing a yukata!
She's wearing her hair like this!
She still has flat breasts like this!
Your brother is as needlessly worried as usual.
Excuse me, I have to go punish him.
Hey! Quit that, you stupid brother!
Such good siblings.
They would always fight in front of me, though...
No, it looks like gentle people naturally gather around you.
Huh?
That's probably...
Because you are...
Huh? What is it?
Nothing.
It's almost time for the Kagura dance.
I see.
Do your best.
Yes. I'll try my best.
Beautiful.
Have we always had such a beautiful woman in this neighborhood?
Ichika.
Huh?
How was my dance?
It was good.
It was very good.
I see.
Thank you.
The IS Academy is over there.
Yes.
A lot of things have happened this year.
You're being hasty.
You can leave remarks like that for the end of year.
You're right about that, but...
They discovered that I could pilot IS,
I made the news,
I had to join the IS Academy,
I met many different people,
there were all kinds of incidents,
and I was completely caught up in things, but...
Now I'm glad that I entered the IS Academy.
After all, I got to see you again as well.
Oh?
What's wrong, Houki?
Well, you see...
Ichika!
I...
I love you.
Amazing.
What?
At least let me do this.
Well, sure.
