Even now that I know the truth about Soichiro...
I find myself thinking about Kyoko even more than ever.
Even so, I can't seem to change our relationship.
Day after day, I only pass the time.
I-I'm s-so sorry!
No, i-it's all my f-fault!
- - Here. - - Thanks.
Come back soon.
S-See you later!
Godai, any man can do it! Say how you feel!
Kyoko!
I love...
I just can't say it!
Godai!
It's so tragic! So sad!
Drink up. Drink it.
Thanks.
But you can't live like this. Gather your courage and say it!
But...
No buts! It's what women wait for!
But I just can't...
I feel for you, buddy! But if you don't say it...
you can't call yourself a man!
Kyoko...
I-It's no good! I just can't!
Godai! Say it! Spill it! Let it all out!
Kyoko...
Okay! I'll say it for you!
Kyoko, I love...
No! Don't you dare!
There's a moon out tonight!
Hey, Soichiro. Here's a present...
Tenants of Maison Ikkoku: I have returned!
Akemi, you can't sleep here. You'll catch cold.
Lemme alone. I'm sleepy.
Come on. Please wake up.
Gee, Manager, you're stronger than I thought.
Mrs. Ichinose, don't just stand there. Lend me a hand.
She's pretty heavy.
Sorry about that.
She's soused.
The customer was buyin'! I polished off a whole bottle!
Poor customer.
Who the heck put a trash can in my way!?
- - Who can that be? - -Some drunk passing by.
You're gonna say it! You're gonna say it, right?
Yeah! I'll say it in front of God and everybody!
Godai!
Good, Godai! Do what you must!
ATTENTlON PEOPLE OF THE CITY!
l, YUSAKU GODAl...
AM IN LOVE WITH KYOKO!
He said it!
G-Godai!
KYOKO! I LOVE YOU!
Are you all right, Godai!?
KYOKO, I LOVE YOU!
Please stop! The neighbors...
Don't stop him!
He can only say it with liquid courage!
A sad excuse for a man!
No, I'm not saying it 'cause I'm drunk!
Here's my proof!
I'M STONE COLD SOBER!
Will you behave yourself!?
Aren't you Kyoko?
I am!
Did'ja hear what I just said?
Along with the rest of the city.
Really? You heard me?
This is great! I almost gave up on you!
Let's go to your room.
We're going to my room?
That's right. Let's go.
I'll be your guide!
Soichiro!
Allow him this one shot! Soichiro!
Let me down! Hey!
- - I'm home! - - What're you doin'?
Mrs. Ichinose, please help me!
Hey, manager lady! Don't stop 'em!
I'm just a tenant.
I can't believe the kid finally scored!
Akemi, please stop him!
Godai, go for it!
Akemi!
- - What fun we're having. - - Good evenin'!
Be careful!
Now I see. It's all clear.
Manager and Godai sitting in a tree...
No!
Stop this, Godai.
Mr. Yotsuya, help me!
Mr. Yotsuya...
Bon appetit.
You traitor!
Soichiro...
So close.
Kyoko...
Spacing.
Headache.
I got a bump. Where'd that happen?
Maybe you hit a phone pole.
Yeah, maybe.
Mornin'!
Oh, Godai.
A shame about last night.
Godai. The manager was furious.
Naturally. Stopping in the middle would anger any woman.
W-What do you mean? Did I do something wrong?
Mr. Yotsuya! Please tell me!
Godai. Some things are better left unknown.
You naughty boy.
''Left unknown ''? Mr. Yotsuya!
Godai.
Sakamoto...
I was drunk off my butt. Don't remember a thing.
What did I do to the manager!?
You don't remember anything about last night?
Lower the volume! Did I do something wrong?
So you really don't remember.
Listen close.
First your slacks and shirt...
Godai...
I danced around naked!?
Kyoko, look at me! Look at me!
Eeeek! A man!
Look at me! Look at me!
Eeeek! A man!
l, uh... Manager...
Kill me now!
- - But it's kind of funny... - - What is?
Like Mr. Yotsuya said. She was mad 'cause you stopped...
Right! I stopped dancing 'round naked, so she got mad...
Don't stop! Please, don't stop, Godai!
Something's not right here.
Now that you mention it...
Hey, hey!
What, what?
It's him! The guy from Maison Ikkoku.
Last night he was shouting...
- - Yeah! - - And then...
- - And what he said! - - Ohmigod! I can't believe it!
I must have done something awful.
You must have shown off something very private.
Nothing else would cause their twisted smiles!
You're right!
The kids these days are just shameless!
That's it I'm doomed...
Don't get so depressed.
We aren't sure that's what happened, yet.
Yeah, but...
Yo, Godai. So you were hugging a trash can and crying?
I saw the whole scene!
I thought my clothes stunk like garbage. And it's all your fault!
Right! Get the real story from Akemi.
Besides that? Like hugging and kissing Soichiro?
That explains my dog hairs.
But that's just the warm up.
The best part started when you and the manager...
Godai? The story was just getting interesting.
No!
I don't wanna hear! I don't wanna hear!
I danced around naked...
then I kissed the trash can and Soichiro.
And I chased Kyoko around while shouting obscenities.
And... And...
...then, in front of everybody, I grabbed her!
- - See you! - - G'bye!
KYOKO, I LOVE YOU!
I don't know. Did he mean it?
But it's too serious to joke about.
It kept me up all night.
If Godai hadn't fallen asleep, I'd have...
I don't know why I did that. A woman should know better.
Women should know better.
D-Damn! I HAVE to say something!
l... About last night...
You must think I'm a complete jerk.
I was just a bit surprised.
I suppose I can't just blame it on the booze.
l...
I'd rather somebody did that when they were serious and sober.
Do you think l could do that sober!?
But since you were drunk, I don't know if you were serious or not!
I couldn't do that seriously! I'm not that type of man!
Then it was a joke!?
You said you loved me as a joke!? That's too much!
B-But...
Does that mean I wasn't dancing around naked...?
I'm such an idiot!
Soichiro, I'm sorry.
I swear I'll never look at another man again!
Kyoko!
Drunk again!?
I've decided to take tennis lessons!
It's because everybody's telling me that I'm gloomy.
Next: ''The Mysterious Tennis Coach is the Rival of Love. ''
It's incredible. Coach Mitaka doesn't have a single filling...
But when he smiles his teeth sparkle.
