Seishun Festival raised its curtain.
Tonkou and Sanjo students who until a few months ago would not look into each other's eyes
are grilling octopus balls together and eating them,
and taking pictures from holes in cardboard stand ups.
Youth, pure and simple.
How about some sweet red-bean soup with mochi warmed up to body temperature by Mishimaru-kun?
Please take one
Mishimaru-kun is not human
The word for body temperature literally means human skin
What were you trying to do to my woman, douche!!
Youth, that is a precious time rented by God.
Be it a comedy, or serious, or a horror,
one day it must be returned.
If you cling to it even when you've aged, you'll be made to pay expensive late fees.
Like him.
Y'all, louder, louder!
Ready!
Wasshoi: common word to call out when shouldering the mikoshi. Like "heave ho"
Stop!
Impossible here, can't turn!
I told you, didn't I! It's too long!
Sooorrryyy!!!
Let's back up
Greatly delighted, aren't you?
I'm sorry
It's fine.
Mikoshi is something to be carried with energy.
It won't do if the culprit with a guilty conscience...
Sensei, sensei!
Uh, that matter, is not yet...
Not yet!?
Procrastinating again?
Like I said, after the cultural festival end, I'll tell everything.
After the festival ends, my sister will be gone from Mishima.
I will tell Yuko-san today.
Today
Is that so
Forgive me
Birds of a feather flock together...
Inscrutable are the ways of Heaven
Correct!
This isn't broken?
Question no. 9. Yakkun, Fukkun, Sakana-kun,
There was a male idol group in the 80s called Shibugakitai, the members are commonly referred to as Yakkun, Fukkun,and Mokkun Sakana-kun, literally fish-kun, is a fish expert and TV personality with a blowfish hat
Who has a lot of children?
An unexpected formidable enemy appeared in front of Quiz King Endou.
Correct!
Meanwhile
Principal, keep yourself together! The festival has just started!
Why are you guys coming and going!?
Get through under the mikoshi.
What? What happened?
Apparently she fainted at the haunted house
It could have been my fault
Nooooo!
Anyway who are you?
It's me
Among 5 people 3 are Sadako!
The straw dolls are falling down!
Excuse me...
We're still in prep!
Mai Mai! Got a scoop!
The principal saw monsters, and fainted hard!
No Tommy! Shush!
I laughed my ass off
Laughed my ass off...
If only she'd never wake up ever again, huh
Right, Principal?
PRINCIPAL!
Mai Mai and Tommy
What is your relationship?
No! Being the center of attention...
Yes, dating with a view of marriage
Also, Hara-sensei, your family is visiting.
Ah, hello
Uhm, my brother and his wife
Where's Dad?
Not coming, he said
Since Secchan left he's been down.
Huh
What? He's been glaring at me the whole time.
"Sumou Musical Endou" is now playing with rave reviews!
Master, thank you very much!
This is Butterfly by Kimura Kaela
Now, Quiz King Endou has come back!
Sorry sorry, thanks for waiting
Question no. 142
3-choices or fastest buzzing, bring them all!
In this way, Seishun Festival's first day passed by haphazardly.
Mishima's official yuruchara...
Mishimaru-kun
Thank you very much
You're planning to reveal things to Yuko?
Satoshi, why do you...?
Don't underestimate me
Sorry
Forgive me
As you can see
Lift your face, Beiyan
Don't mess with me
Rather than being treated like a criminal, rather than quitting school,
being betrayed by my best friend made me the saddest more than anything!
Pathetic!
You betrayed me first, didn't you!
Wha...
I...
It's not about me
I'm only human of that extent after all.
But Beiyan, you can't do such a thing.
You have to be a good person!
You're not making sense!
You don't have to say the truth!
Get off me!
Yuko likes you!
Huh?
So you really weren't listening to the radio
Telling you are the culprit now
she will be gone for real, you know.
You won't be able too see her ever again. Are you still okay with that?
Satoshi...
She likes Beiyan, there's no doubt!
Move
It'll work, I'm telling you!
Saying that again?
Don't go!
Which do you want!
I just want you to be happy, it's self-serving to say but,
I think that from the bottom of my heart
I had no intention
of betraying you!
Principal, your rhythm is too energetic, you're off.
Which principal?
Both
Your spirits looks old-fashioned, or like, Showa, right?
You cannot make fun of Showa
Anyway, this is impertinent of you.
When you don't even know C-C-B
C-C-B: rock band from the 1980s
Then, ya know Sakanaction?
Blub blub blub, right?
Gotoukuji-sensei mistook Sakanaction (a popular band) with the aforementioned Sakana-kun Sakana-kun appears while saying, "blub blub blub", an onomatopoeia for air bubbles in water
Bir, Carlos Toshiki's Japanese is better than yours, you know
Carlos Toshiki: Brazillian singer of Japanese descent, was the lead vocal of a band active in the 80s
Enough talking about the old times! One more time from the beginning!
You're all happiness, Hara-san
You have two outstanding sons
You think?
Your first son will inherit the temple, and Heisuke-kun too...
Unreliable at first glance but, he holds onto his beliefs and is a teacher.
Really?
Do you hold a grudge against me?
Eh, me?
No no, how could...
Then, what do you think of me?
What...
I'm stumped
Of course
Hara-san doesn't know me all that well anyway huh
I don't know anything either
Before we could get to know each other well
it came to that.
I am sorry
Sometimes I think about it
If that fire had not happened, what would I have been doing now?
Would have dated Satoshi-kun for a little while,
gone to college, broken up,
while working at an office,
dated somebody like other people and broken up,
Would I be married, I think
"I am sorry," why are you apologizing?
I'm sorry
Eh, what about?
Wha, what are you talking about?
Like I said, I
I think my son is the real culprit of that fire.
Sorry!
Is this a joke!?
Why do you say something like that now!?
As you can see, please spare us
Your apologizing means nothing!
Call your son!
Now is impossible
My son, as you said, is by nature a man straight as an arrow,
after the festival ends, without fail,
he should put an end to this.
I lost everything!
That's why he couldn't say it!
There's nothing I could do but believe in my son
Don't say pretty things! To save your own skin, right!?
That too
Only that, isn't it!
Hey hey... Please stop!
Even I, I wanted to believe in Yuko!
But I couldn't
I lost heart because of the completely groundless rumours going around
Shit
What is different between you and I!?
What is different...
Nothing is different
That's right
You couldn't believe
I couldn't suspect
Both of us are weak people
Don't put me in the same boat as you!
Sir!
This is none of your business!
You are the same!
The proof is
you both are wearing the same jacket
Sorry, it's not about that, huh
But!
Looking at you objectively, you get along so very well.
You look really great together
The eels on your backs are apologizing too
How you could drink with me, I'm amazed
That's true
If I had been able to believe in my daughter
it would have been great if I had investigated properly, and had been able to find the real culprit
That I was not able to do that
was because I was afraid of knowing the truth.
I too was afraid.
That's what a parent is.
You knew?
I heard about it yesterday
Could you forgive him?
Forgive Hara-sensei
Onee-chan
Sorry, it's not something for me to say, huh
But only I can say it
I'll put everything that's happened up until now behind us
I'd like you to forgive Hara-sensei
It's impossible
Immediately, it's impossible
Let's go home
I'll treat you some croquettes
Risa-chan is an adult now eh?
Stop it
Hei-chan, what are you doing?
Mm? Gathering stuff I don't want to be seen
In preparation for the house search
You'll be arrested? Hei-chan will be eating prison food?
That's the plan.
Well, I'm an arsonist
No way, I'll come with you
You can't
By the way, Mom is
a metaphor for the existence of a guilty conscience, right?
That's right
I am Miyuki the Ushirometaphor
So that means...
What?
No no. I will say it. Properly
Mm. I told Yuko and Hachiya-sensei.
When the cultural festival ends, properly, from my own mouth
Do your best
Seishun Festival's second day
A delightful guest came over
Former student body president of Sanjo, Nakai Takako-san
Is that a rhinoceros beetle?
It's a guitar
Heichan-sensei, you've got no sense at all
Be quiet
President!
Nakai-san!
So you came today, I thought you weren't coming
It looks good on you, Cosme!
Oh, what's that?
Mikoshi. They couldn't bring it out, so they split it down the middle
Do you want to see Bircken's sandal art?
Ebi en Grey's live performance is later, do come
Before that let's go to the haunted house
Ebisawa at bass will sing a ballad
However by Glay
A gentle wind blows at this place
Seriously? Will this be okay?
I should have bundled up way more
Ebisawa-kun, do your best!
By the way, is the cafe ok?
Yeap, got somebody to replace me
Who?
Nakai-san?
Ah, sorry, I just barged in
What are you saying? You're very much welcome!
This is so exciting, I'm glad I came
Really? Everyone will be delighted that Nakai-san said that
"Sumou Musical Endou" : Part II
Master, thank you very muuuuuuuuuuuchhhhh!
Butterfly by Kimura Kaela
It's Endou-chan
How is it going? Got used to the new school?
Hmmm
It's no different from cram school and prep school. Feels like going to school for the sake of entrance exams.
Is that so
I sang that with the intention to dedicate it to Amarin, did you get that?
Well, who listened until the end was just me
Don't say that
You actually wanted President to listen to it, didn't you?
You too, are you done with Handa?
We did it! We did it, Narita-kun!
In 2 days we mobilized 400 people!
I like Ebisawa-kun after all
Me too, to the point that I can't see anything but Amarin,
I only see Amarin
Ebisawa-kun
Amarin!
Move move move! Move, I'm carrying hot pot!
Ah, Nakai-chan, welcome back!
I'm home!
It's cold isn't it?
Fish, meat, and vegetable stew
I wanted Nakai-chan to eat it so I kept some.
Droopy Eyes eating too?
Yeah
Sensei, can I request just one thing?
Request?
Everyone! Great job for the past 2 days!
"Fiery! Lithely Burn Up Autumn!"
Yes yes yes yes
Here and there there were places where it was slightly cold but
since it was fun, who cares right?!
YES!
So, as the former student president
Nakai Takako-san earnestly wishes for,
Shortly, we'll be doing something even colder
Folk dance will be the death of me!
That's my line! Can't do it even if I die!
Let's do it! Sensei
Ai-chan Ai-chan Ai-chan Ai-chan
So noisy
I'm glad I was in your class
Huh?
I didn't convey that properly
I said I got the short end of the stick, but it turned out to be the jackpot.
Being told that, I wouldn't be able to say it
Eh, what about?
Uh, thank you for coming
It was fun
I see
"Gakuen Tengoku" by Finger5 (School Heaven)
The longer fun times continue
The harder it is to say goodbye
Hey hey hey hey heeeyyyy!
Over here, over here!
Miss Seishun and Mister Seishun Contest
result announcement!
Alright, silence please.
The result of 2 days of popular vote, Miss and Mister Seishun, one of each, have been selected
Without further ado let's have Sister announce it!
Well then, I will announce the result
Okay, first generation Miss Seishun is
of 3rd Year Class C
Murai Mamoru-kun
Yeay!
There
Congratulations
Thank you very much
Even though there are so many wonderful women here,
uh...I'm sorry!
That's right! Our minced is in pieces!
she means mentsu instead of minced, means face/honor
Alright, let's continue with Mister Seishun announcement.
Well then, I will announce
First generation Mister Seishun is...
Hara Heisuke-sensei
Hei-chan!
Heichan Heichan Heichan Heichan
You're so cool!
Uhm, everyone please be quiet
That I can receive such a wonderful award,
I never even thought of it
I am thrilled
But you know
Just when I got chosen but,
I decline
Why Heichan?
Because I am not qualified
You mean Akishima is more fitting?
No...
Be quiet over there!
Don't joke. Let's all listen seriously.
Whether I be Mister Seishun,
by all rights, being a teacher and conducting lessons to you, I don't have the slightest qualification.
I am the lowest human.
Wait a minute, what is this? What are you talking about?
It might be unbelievable now that it has come to this, but
Tonkou and Sanjo until recently were like cats and dogs.
The one who caused
the incident which was the reason of being on bad terms
is none other than me.
I am the one who set fire on the chapel.
I am terribly sorry
The motive was
a pathetically hopeless thing.
I was mortified.
I did not want to accept the truth in front of my eyes.
I pulled something out of my ass.
I fired at Sanjo roof where my best friend and that girl were.
I fired up fireworks.
The chapel caught on fire because of those fireworks.
I was scared.
I absolutely couldn't think that it was my action.
The boy and girl who happened to be present
Nothing more than a Tonkou student and a Sanjo student
Those two were treated like the culprits
They left this Mishima separately.
And then unpleasant rumors circulated.
When Tonkou and Sanjo students date, nothing good would come out of it.
Relationships are forbidden.
The joint cultural festival was also called off.
Even though
the true culprit was me.
Even though an unpopular, dull, hopeless Tonkou student's
unsightly jealousy incurred the fire.
Did you not think of coming forward?
Many times I went to the front of the police station.
But
my legs got frozen...
Were you afraid of receiving punishment?
Yes
But it was not only that.
What was it?
Tell us the truth!
Because I loved school.
I loved Tonkou.
And the Izupakko
And reciting the Heart Sutra with everyone while yawning
And the once a month sermon
And the store's bread, and the coffee milk,
and the infirmary, and Donmai-sensei
I loved them all so much
All of those were my youth.
Hei-chan
The joint cultural festival that was called off because of my fault
Coed that everyone dreamed of
I wanted to be at school until they came to realization.
No...
I have to be here.
That's what I came to think.
In order to do that...
Become a teacher was the only way
Yes
So you took teaching license
I became a teacher.
Once everything is accomplished
I had intended to confess.
In the end...
it took 14 years.
Even when I get to this age, I sneakily drag along my youth.
Make the merger come true,
make the joint cultural festival a success,
do you think that with that you have atoned for your sins?
That's presumptuous of you!
Yes
14 years of deceiving the public, deceiving the students,
deceiving God and Buddha, and then...
deceiving yourself.
That kind of thing cannot be legitimized!
Nothing wrong in particular?
You should properly make amends!
Exactly as you say
The sin of arson will not be erased in any way.
Taking responsibility, I will resign...
Did you say something just now?
Shorty over there
It's Jinbou.
No, nothing.
She said, "Nothing wrong in particular?"
Jinbou-san, what is not wrong?
Well, we are not on bad terms.
Whether Heichan-sensei was the culprit or not, whichever is fine, I thought
What are you saying!? The thought that a teacher committed arson...
It's not a teacher committing arson, is it?
An arsonist became a teacher, isn't it?
Either way, 14 years ago, we were only 4 years old, weren't we?
Either way is fine
If Heichan were not our homeroom teacher, the merger
and Seishun Festival wouldn't have happened anyway.
That is very true, isn't it?
That the merger could happen during our time, I think of it as being lucky
It was fun, right
So fun!
Well, if you insist on quitting no matter what, we won't particularly stop you though.
We're graduating anyway, right
Ah, quitting in March,
then set up Mishima croquettes store in Tokyo, that would be great!
No, I quit by the end of today.
It's sudden but
it was something I decided since I became a teacher.
I will not let you do that!
Remember "rotten oranges" reference from episode 2, a line from Kanpachi-sensei series Means misbehaving students
What? Rotten oranges again?
No, no.
These people will prove that Hara-sensei was innocent.
Beiyan, I
could be bringing good news again!
We shouldn't talk here. The Principal's office.
This is Matsushita-san who was in charge of the arson case 14 years ago.
Can we go through it once again?
It's true that remains of rocket fireworks were found laying.
However, at that time, the origin of the outbreak of the fire could not be asserted, that was the conclusion.
Why was that?
From the circumstances of the scene, probability-wise
Aiming from the rooftop of Tonkou, rocket fireworks flying over to the chapel
the probability that they will get inside from the gap of the window is...
how many percent was it?
It's 0.001%
1 in 100,000
That's not likely. No no no
But, it's not zero, isn't it?
It's infinitesimally zero
Well did you fire up 100,000 fireworks?
20.
No, but they flew quite far though
There were rocket fireworks laying at the scene, but
it's unlikely that they flew from Tonkou rooftop.
In other words, Beiyan is not guilty!
Then, who did it?
That, we cannot identify.
It's me after all
Persistent!
It's fine, isn't it? The police are saying you're innocent
In the first place, why were the chapel's windows open, I wonder?
That was me. I was negligent in locking the door.
No no, we broke the window and sneaked in.
Ah, look, I forgot to put out the candlestick
Then the wind blew and knocked it down
Maybe a mouse knocked it down
Look, everyone doesn't want you to quit
We get it!
The woman you fell for
was kissing another guy
Even I would fire up fireworks!
I, by all means, would fire them up!
As long as it doesn't become a fire you know
Hikari stops, Nozomi passes through
The school song...
City of water
In the first place, you had no eyes for man
This kind of inferior fella
I'm sorry
That Hara-sensei could trespass onto Tonkou rooftop
was because there was a problem with our security.
Anyway, it was wrong that there was a chapel at that place
That's right. We were about to break it down too.
We're free from all debts too
Let the matter from 14 years ago be bygones
That's right.
I too, keeping it a secret from the school, work as a radio DJ
Don't tell me, that Mishima FM?
Yes
"Sorry Youth!"
You're Kabayaki Santarou?!
Eh, is it that much of a problem!?
Of course you can't! The principal of a private school
Give my youth back!
Is that a part-time job, Principal?
Uh, which one?
I was having an affair!
Secrets that we can't tell to anybody, on public airwaves...
How could you!
So, is arson a heavy crime?
He diverted the topic
The statute of limitation has passed, hasn't it?
Is that so!?
Yes
What the....
Where is Hara-sensei?
I had been in an affair!
Lady, you shouldn't tell lies
Telling stories with friends, taste of croquettes
Sunzu Line that runs unhurriedly
Izuppako that clatters along
One day, God and Buddha made up
That was the beginning of youth
This should be okay
What's going on?
No, not me, not me...
It'll be fine, come on say it, Narita
What?
Thanks to Sensei, these past 2 days
were so much fun.
Narita
We, from this point on,
will go to college, find a job, work,
go out into the society.
Even if not one good thing happens,
just this 2nd term of 3rd year of high school was the best,
we can say that proudly.
Truly, thank you very much
See! It shouldn't have been me!
Hachiya-sensei
Let's get married!
Uh, sorry
Like, since Narita said something amazing
I can't lose, I thought
Let's
Hachiya-sensei
Let us, I say, but
Should that be said now!?
I swear to God, not knowing is Buddha
Many things happened, Seishun High School
Sensei! Sensei, look!
Beautiful
Repent, be enlightened, self
My, my youth, pure and simple
Hara Heisuke quit being a teacher at the end of this day
The principal quit being a disc jockey
Ah, that was amusing
And then, March 2015
In the runup to the establishment of Seishun High School,
a joint graduation ceremony was held.
By the way, the post-graduation paths of the graduates are
Student president Handa-kun, Murai-kun, Quiz Idiot Akishima, Narita, these 4
narrowly managed to get into Komagata University.
Ooki-kun got admitted to a Buddhist university he can't even read the name of.
Rei...ryuu?
You'll get it when you go, donmai!
Wind Up Doll-kun and Furui-kun could not get on the elevator.
IT'S ESCALATOR!
Don't mind! You can just take the exams again next year
No way! Being Amarin's junior...
Class 3, Abe Amari-san
Yes
Abe Amari-chan, like Ebisawa-kun only took Komagata University's entrance exams,
so she converted into Buddhism.
By contrast, the girls,
Jinbou-san, Sakuma-san, former student president Nakai-san
got admitted to schools of their choice.
Endou-san too, got admitted to a private university but,
I am not satisfied, so I will prepare for next year.
The next year she got into a state university on the first try.
Today was working with Mishimaru-kun again.
Birckenstock did not go to university and worked as local celebrity.
Her activities are focused in the region south of Tokyo on Pacific Ocean side of Japan.
Hey, look at this
The featured article that Hachiya Yuko wrote was published into a book.
Look, Yuko, it's the time for Yuko to eat spring cabbage
Yes yes
Yuko-san for you!
Stop the idle talk, work!
Yuko
Again?
Chief Priest Heita is bar-hopping again tonight.
So then, before Hitomi-chan worked in bars, what did you do?
In apparel, right?
Yes
You've got the apparel look?
Though you look like an alpaca
Good evening
Cabbages!
Just in time, I was frying croquettes
Is that so?
Welcome!
Come have dinner
Yeah
Hachiya-sensei is undergoing training for homemaking at Eirakuji.
Hey, isn't the shredded cabbage thick?
So noisy, if you're gonna complain eat the whole leaf
Excuse me
Is Dad doing okay?
Yeah
Actually he told me to see how you are
The rice is hard
Tell him the brother-in-law is so nitpicky that I'm in depression.
Croquettes again huh...
Ah, oh no oh no
Alright, this is "Sorry Youth!" brought by the 2nd generation Kabayaki Santarou
Let's get the call right away.
Hello
My radio name is 3D
Rather than "Sorry!"...
would you listen to my complaint?
My workplace was merged, you know
I was handed a demotion.
I had predicted it.
It would be weird if there were 2 people at the top anyway.
But you know what, three people being the no. 2 is weird, isn't it!?
Seishun High 3rd Vice Principal SANNOMIYA
The 3rd no. 2 means no. 4 okay!
Please don't prattle on by yourself
I'm sorry
Okay then, for radio name 3D-san...
Wait a minute
You said "Sorry" just now, didn't you?
It ends once you say "Sorry!"
Bir!
2nd generation does the proceedings so roughly!
The previous generation Kaba-san listened more empathetically!
For 3D-san, we will give you Sorry Eel's canned goods.
You've got stuff like canned goods...
Gimme
Heisuke,
I've decided to remarry with the alpaca-like Hitomi-chan...
Okay, this was "Sorry, Youth!"
Next up is announcement from the City of Mishima.
Yamada-Birckenstock Kyoko-san
Congratulations
Heichan did not come after all, huh
Can't be helped. The alumni and PTA are here.
Hara Heisuke-kun
Yes!
Heichan!
Droopy Kappa!
Finally, you're able to graduate from your youth
Congratulations
Thank you very much
Yeay!
Thank you
