W-who?
Who is she?
Nee-chan?
Yuzuyu.
Yuzuyu?
You take care of her!
Oh yeah.
We decided to have her live here.
Nee-chan told me to look after her.
So I took care of her...
and then she slept here with me...
and then...
Yuzu's Rice Ball !
Mother!
Kippei! What is it?
I have a favor to ask.
What are you planning to do to your mother?
Teach me how to make rice balls.
Rice... balls?
How to make rice balls?
Well, all you do is take it and mold it like this.
Okay, I've got it.
You can go now.
That's my favorite apron, so don't get it dirty, okay?
Ouch, that's hot!
Good morning.
Oh no, it's Nee-chan.
What are you doing Kippei?
Oh, is it Kippei's turn to make breakfast today?
I hope not!
I'm not going to eat that thing.
Who asked you to eat it?
Anyway, can you even make anything fit for human consumption?
What? Rice balls?
Hey! I never said you could look, you weirdo!
Anyway... could this be Yuzuyu-chan's lunch?
You're being so nice to that girl.
You're the one that told me to take care of her!
I'm awake.
Yuzuyu-chan, he's making your lunch.
Hey! Don't tell her.
Mine?
So, if you could go get ready...
Okay.
Kippei, you're just like a mom.
She sure is a good girl, isn't she?
Aunt Miyako should hurry back here for her.
Here you go.
Thank you!
Oh, Satsuki-onii-chan...
Yeah?
Does Kippei-onii-chan have a girlfriend?
Girlfriend.
I don't know. I don't think he has a girlfriend.
Yay!
Well then, I'm going to marry Kippei-onii-chan.
Shh!
It's a secret!
Hey everyone, this five year old child has just made a life-threatening decision.
Tada!
Here's your lunch.
Yay!
Kippei-mama, you're going to be late!
Eek! It's that time already?
We have to hurry!
I'm going.
Have a good day.
Rice...
rice...
ball...
rice ball.
Rice...
rice...
ball...
Rice ball!
Let's hurry or we'll be late!
Okay! I'll hurry!
Rice,
ball, ball...
rice ball.
Rice, rice...
ball, ball...
I guess we're going to be late then.
Rice ball.
Aikawa Hidenbou.
Here!
Okamoto Shoko.
Here!
Katakura Kippei.
He's late again today? Geez.
Kippei was late yesterday too.
He seems so busy, maybe he did get a girlfriend.
Hey, Katakura, you're late!
Sensei.
W-what is it?
I know I was late again today...
but I'm filled with a very happy feeling.
Is that so?
What do you mean, "Is that so?"
Just hurry up and take your seat!
The teacher has already given up on Kippei.
That's because he's an idiot.
Ma'am, could I get these?
You're eating bread again today?
Eat some rice! Aren't you Japanese?
It's fine, I like bread!
Oh, give me a strawberry milk too.
What?
What are you looking at Kippei?
Why are girls' lunches so flashy?
Do you like those?
Do they make you happy?
Hey! Are you mocking the lunch my mother made for me?
Of course it makes me happy!
What about a rice ball?
One rice ball?
What's wrong with you?
I don't really understand you.
Just one rice ball?
With no side dishes?
Go die!
D-die...
I used to have rice balls with no side dishes.
It made me feel so depressed all afternoon.
That brings back memories.
Depressed?
You couldn't even call it a lunch.
I don't believe it.
I gave her a plain rice ball for lunch.
There weren't even any side dishes.
I was so proud of myself.
What is...
What's wrong?
It's nothing.
Wow! Tokunaga, your lunch box is tiny!
Kokoro, you make your lunch yourself, right?
Is this all you eat?
Don't you get hungry?
Even after five of these rolls I'm not full.
She's not like you!
So you can't make comparisons like that.
Wow, your arms are so thin.
I like girls to have more meat on their bones.
Shut up!
I didn't ask about your taste in women.
Ouch!
Well, you do have a tiny appetite, that's for sure.
You really should eat more.
Sensei, thank you for the meal.
Everyone, thank you for the meal.
Okay everyone, don't forget to chew your food.
Yes!
Yuzuyu-chan also has a homemade lunch today.
Yeah!
Yuzu's...
...rice ball.
What's that?
It's shaped funny!
Yuzuyu-chan, can you even eat that?
It looks gross.
What's wrong everyone?
Let's be quiet and eat.
Sensei, what is it?
If you see Katakura, please tell him to bring me the printouts.
Okay.
Where is Kippei?
Probably up on the roof.
Should we go tell him?
I don't want to get up just for Kippei.
Kokoro, you go get him.
Huh?
I don't want to get up either.
Come on...
Yay!
Rice...
rice...
ball...
rice ball.
Rice...
She seemed so happy...
but I only made her one rice ball.
I want to eat Mama's rice balls...
but I could never eat them all.
So now Mama hates me.
I'll be a good girl!
So please take me to my Mama!
I'll make them...
I'll make your rice balls.
Ah, Kippei!
So here you are! Let's talk!
What's wrong?
You don't seem happy.
Okay, let's hang out today.
Nope, I have plans today.
Stop it.
I'm not in the mood right now.
Oh really? Then what's with your hand?
The teacher wants to see you.
Bye.
I'm sorry, I have to go.
Tokunaga.
Which teacher wanted to talk to me?
Oh, our homeroom teacher.
Thanks for letting me know.
Don't touch me!
Don't think that I'm just another girl you can fool around with.
Even if you say that...
one girl is pretty much the same as the next.
Goodbye, Sensei.
Goodbye.
I shouldn't have said that I would make her rice balls.
She's probably angry at me now.
On top of that, Tokunaga was mad at me too.
Ah, what a day!
Katakura-san.
Teacher's Lounge
Today, during lunch time...
Yuzuyu-chan...
slapped one of her friends.
W-what was that?
I will apologize to the parents as well...
but they may say something to you.
Well, kids do fight.
Hmm... What should I say at a time like this?
Hey, why did you do such a thing?!
Don't be so sad.
Well done.
That's how a woman should be.
It's strange...
something doesn't seem right.
Are you okay?
Well.
Well, well, well...
As you grow up, you're bound to have days like these.
Hey, what's wrong?
Did it hurt?
Are you hurt?
Hey, don't cry.
But, Ken-kun...
Ken-kun?
Ken-kun...
said my rice ba...
Ken-kun, what happened?
Yuzuyu-chan hit me.
I didn't do anything...
but Yuzuyu-chan just suddenly hit me.
Is that right?
Yuzuyu-chan, why did you hit him?
R-Rice ball.
Rice ball?
Ah, was it bad?
It made me happy.
Don't cry.
Yuzuyu.
I'll try harder tomorrow.
So, what would you like?
Rice balls!
Alright, rice balls it is then.
And a hamburger!
So she did want a side dish.
Kippei-onii-chan, I really love you!
Yuzuyu is so tiny.

Year in, year out; keep living on for me.
DIE!
Ouch.
I told you not to lay a finger on her...
you human trash!
Well, I did touch her, but not in a bad way.
As long as she's female then it's okay?!
You're disgusting!
Okay, Yuzuyu-chan. Let's leave this beast here and go home together.
Onee-chan...
It's not Onee-chan, it's Onee-sama, Yuzuyu-chan.
Onee-sama.
Kippei, go somewhere far away and don't come home for the next three days!
Not that again... geez.

Nothing happened.
I'm not lonely.
It seems like something is wrong.
