''The joy is welling up within me, and my heart is about to burst.''
''The reason being, today is...''
What?
''The-reason-being, today-is...''

''The reason being, today is...'' What?
What comes next?
Gee, you're weird.
''The reason being, today is my birthday.''
Break time.
Thank you.
See ya later, Big Brother.
We'll look forward to seeing you next week.
Yup, next week.
Thank you so much. Until next time.
Yeah, until next time.
Oh, no. She's Forgotten!
Oh, that's right!
Here you go.
Kyoko left this on her last visit. Please return it for me.
I--
Hi, there! Okame Sushi delivery!
How much?
It'll be 4300 yen.
That'll remind her!
Here, 4300.
Oh, Godai...
Is anything wrong?
--Nothing. Good night.
Just as my plans were working out--
Big Brother!
Here's your pay! Mom forgot!
Big Brother! Here's your pay!
Big Brother!
M-My pay!
All right!
How time flies.
It's already been a year since I came to Maison Ikkoku.
So much has happened.
But the only thing that's changed is that Godai is in college now.
He's still the same Godai, though.
Calm down.
Nonchalance. Nonchalance.
No ''chalance'' at all!
Okay.
It's just us.
Okay. This is it.
I-Is she sleeping?
No!!
That's not what I'm here For!
When did I--?
I didn't do a thing.
I know that. I was awake the whole time.
That was close.
I hope he didn't see anything...
Can I help you?
Y-Yeah--
Is there something--?
A-Ar--
Are you free this evening?
Yes--?
W-Would you have dinner with me?
I just got paid--
Yes.
I can't treat you to anything too fancy, but--
Of course, I'll be paying.
Yes.
So--
Yes?
T-That's okay with you?
Yes!
Then we'll meet at six. Over at Ma Maison.
You know it, don't you?
Yes.
Then, six o'clock at Ma Maison.
MA MAISON
Yes! Six o'clock at Mamezo.
MAMEZO
I did it! I did it! I did it!
I can still hear you.
He remembered the one-year anniversary.
On-a-date-with-Kyoko!
What am I gonna wear?
I was just lookin' for you.
I refuse.
I haven't asked you anything yet.
Let me guess. ''We're drinking tonight. Big party.''
That's scary. You hit the nail on the head.
Forgive me. I've made other arrangements.
But tonight's--
I said no and I mean 'no!
It's a party for the manager's anniversary.
What a cold fish he is.
...so we're holding a party.
I-- see.
''I see''? Is tonight a bad night?
Well, I've made other plans.
But you're the guest of honor. Show up for a little while.
It's at six, at Mamezo.
''Mamezo''? I'm supposed to be meeting him at Mamezo, at six.
Meeting WHO?
It doesn't matter. I'll find out at six anyway.
You're throwing a party?
Good ears. You're more than a set of sparkling teeth.
How you jest.
We're having a First-Anniversary- as-Manager Party, tonight.
You coming?
I'd like to. But I'm not a tenant. I'd be intruding.
Don't wanna come?
I'll be there.
BYOB. Don't forget your wallet.
Meeting at the same place--
Why couldn't Godai pick a more appropriate place?
It doesn't matter.
What am I going to wear?
MA MAISON
I'm a little early, but I may as well go in.
MAMEZO Let's get this party rolling.
This is it.
Welcome!
There she is!
Took you long enough.
Sorry--
Take the seat of honor.
You're late, so you gotta chug the first one down.
But I have another engagement--
You've been stood up. It's after six already.
But--
Speaking of which, Godai's not here.
So the party doesn't include all the tenants?
Y'see. He just got himself a new girlfriend.
A secret rendezvous, is it?
Twenty minutes late?
Happens all the time with women.
Just have to make allowances, and wait.
I am a pachinko genius!
I know her.
Godais girlfriend?
I'll wait till seven and if she isn't here...
...then I'll wait till eight.
C'mon in!
So who are you waitin' for, anyway?
Confession is good for the soul.
Geez, it's already seven!
You've been dumped.
Whatta bum...
...standin' you up like that.
How dare Godai!
--Godai!? --Godai!?
T-That's right.
He wants to meet you in a bar?
Yeah, but---
You sure he didn't mean Ma Maison?
That coffee shop by the station.
It would be confusing: ''Ma Maison'' and ''Mamezo.''
''Ma Maison.''
''Mamezo.''
I have to leave.
It's after seven.
I'm sure he's left already--
--I'll go along! --Thank you!
I'm not lettin' you go.
Uh, excuse me--?
He's been here more than an hour already.
Wonder if he's been dumped--?
He's shaking.
He's angry!
I've tried to hold out. I've tried!
But even I have...
...my limits!
Welcome.
Yo, Godai, what's shakin'?
Look at that get-up!
Got a date, huh?
If you do, whatcha doin' here?
She's in that coffee shop near the pachinko parlor.
Kyoko must have gotten the wrong place. That must be it!
What's with him?
Aren't you Godais apartment manager?
Aren't you Godais friend--?
Sakamoto.
Right; Sakamoto.
You haven't seen Godai lately?
Yup.
Y'see. It looks like Godais got a date.
Let's see. I think her name was Kozue--
With Kozue?
Yeah. One mention of her and he blew outta here.
If they got married, he'd be henpecked for sure!
Out with Kozue? He's on a date with Kozue!?
I'm a Few minutes late, and he's out with someone else!
Sakamoto? How would you like a drink?
Kyoko!
Where are you!?
Kyoko!
We need a new bar!
One more bar! One more bar!
You win.
I am never talking to Godai' again!
C'mon in!!
There are four of us. You got space?
This place's cheap! And great fried rice balls.
I'll have that!
Those seats in back--
Never been here before.
A-Aren't you Kozue?
Yes.
Weren't you supposed to be with Godai?
No. Haven't seen him.
S-Sakamoto didn't you say!?
He's down for the count.
Then that means--
Where could she have gone?
Kyoko!
Godai' You wouldn't! still--?
But, you might still be--
Kyoko...
Isn't that customer a little strange?
Godai!
'Scuse me!
We're closing up.
Have you--?
Nothing.
Here, dry yourself off.
Thank you so much.
M-Manager?
Those're the clothes she wore a year ago. When we first met.
Godai. You've been waiting all this time. Waiting for me.
Manager!
I'm so sorry--
Manager!
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry--
Don't cry. I'm not angry.
B-But, three hours--!
I mean-- It's nothing, really!
Manager!
Won't you move a little closer in?
I did it!
Yeah, seize the moment, and casually put your arm around her.
I'd better let him get away with it. I WAS three hours late.
So you were waiting at Mamezo.
I don't know how to apologize.
I could never create this mood! Probably my best chance all year!
Now to make this last as long as possible!
Yo!
Hello, you two. You forgot this.
Thank you.
You had us worried stormin' outta the bar like! that--
Our worries were unfounded, it seems.
Godai, the manager is soaking.
--Here. --T-Thank you.
--Your permission to share? --I want some umbrella, too!
Oh dear.
Good night!
Sleep tight!
'Night-night.
Until tomorrow, then.
Godai, I-I'm really sorry about tonight.
Don't mention it.
Look, you're getting drenched. Come under the umbrella--
Wait up. Wait up, please!
Godai!
It's all right. I'm not angry.
Really?
Really.
Nonchalance...
You're trying to take advantage of me! You creep!
She doesn't get caught up in the mood, does she?
I can't watch!
--So close! --Too bad.
I don't ever wanna be like that. Y'know?
I hear Godai is going to be a puppeteer in the school festival.
Of course, everyone wants to get into the act.
Next: ''The Play's the Thing, Not the Playing Around! The Show Must Go On''
I couldn't! I could never be a puppeteer!
''Eeek! Save me, my prince!''
