If you're sure I'm the one you want--
May I take that as a "yes"?
Yes.
Thank you. I've waited so long for your answer.
I was almost afraid to hear it.
I'm sorry I took so long to decide.
No!
You mean they're already--
You never know, huh?
I'll confirm the party and call you.
Please do! I'll be waiting.
I had no idea of the events taking place.
40,OOO, and it comes with a bath. Not bad.
Godai!
Manager!
What are you looking at?
Apartments that come with a bath.
Going to the public baths must be so inconvenient.
Sure is.
Moving away?
Yeah--
Y'mean me?
Oh, no! Why would I move?
I'm looking for a friend.
Oh. Don't scare me like that.
I sometimes wonder about it...
But the tenants of Maison Ikkoku never move away, right?
That's right.
I know that someday we'll go our separate ways.
But right now, I can't believe that day will come.
That's why you surprised me back there.
Back when I was a ronin I always thought about leaving,
but now, it doesn't even enter my mind.
I'm glad to hear it.
Let me carry that.
So what was the big event?
Your creepy grin is makin' me sick.
Then don't look. You can't spoil my good mood tonight.
Unusual for Godai to be in such a mood.
It's gotta be somethin' stupid 'bout the manager.
Speaking of the manager, did you hear from Mrs. Ichinose?
Sure did! Quite a story!
W-What story?
D-Does it have to do with the manager?
And we promised not to let Godai know!
It will just depress your good mood.
Don't ask.
I-I'm asking!
Coach Mitaka...
...finally popped--
Wait a sec!
You know that you got the story wrong somewhere.
Probably.
If only it were so.
Aha! So you are pulling my leg!
No, we have simply yet to confirm it.
But, if you asked the manager--
"I hear you and Coach Stud are gonna get hitched!"
"Oh dear, doesn't good news travel fast!"
Got any reply for that?
Of course not. Not you especially.
No way! You guys just got mixed up!
Oh! Mrs. Ichinose...
Is something wrong? Come in.
--Tell me. --Yes?
You got anything to say to me?
I mean, about...
Please, come in.
Otonashi here.
Coach Mitaka!
Did you find a nice wedding chapel?
Yes.
--Yes, I know. -- 'Scuse me.
Just a minute!
So much for bein' friends.
How ya doin'? Aren't you cold?
I'm celebratin'. Have one on me.
Finally opened a bottle of my best.
Did something good happen?
The manager's married life starts here.
Did you hear it from her directly?
'Course not.
Then maybe--
Godai, I like you too much to lie about this.
Down it.
I'm happy to have you by my side in this.
Yes...
But are you sure it's me that you want?
If I said that you were the only one I considered...
...would that calm your fears?
You're kidding!
No really! I swear!
So then what?
Godai!
R-Running errands?
I had to meet Coach Mitaka.
About the marriage?
Then you've heard!
Goodbye.
Godai--
Get set!
Go!
Somewhere, I smelled something sweet.
You're not serious?
Godai?
There! Ready to go!
Yields easily, doesn't he?
He's so stupid.
The game's not over 'til the final gun.
He's only got two strikes on him.
I didn't know baseball was a timed sport.
Have you a new address?
I'll find someplace. I'm still young.
What'll we tell the manager!?
Tell her "thanks." And to watch for the movers.
I'm home.
Going out?
Out for the count.
Catch one parting glimpse; Of one catching wanderlust; Soon to catch a cold.
Forgive me, the proper poetry escapes me.
Manager--
Yes?
What's up? Whatcha all doin'?
I'm not sure.
Manager--
Yes?
I... I...
I don't know how to say--
Or even what to say...
...but, Manager, I wanted--
But, Kyoko, I wanted to say...
...thank you.
Thank you for what?
Wait! Godai!
What? Me? Married to Mitaka!?
His SISTER is getting married!
I'm just helping with the reception plans.
Where did this rumor come from!?
Now's not the time for blame!
Godai really left for good! What'll we do?
Nothing we can do.
He'll return when he grows hungry.
Ma, I'm starvin'!
The vey next day, I found my new place.
C'mon in! No better place than Grand Universe Pinball Parlor!
Relieve your stress! Win great prizes!
It's open.
Can I help you?
S-Sorry! W-Wrong apartment!
Grand Universe Pinball Parlor second floor, number one.
Yes?
'Scuse me.
You again?
I was supposed to move into this apartment.
Oh, so they found one! Then come on in!
What's going on?
Find Godai?
Did Godai phone you or anything?
I haven't heard anything.
Worried?
Not really.
I just don't want him to leave with the wrong impression.
I'd never leave Maison Ikkoku unattended.
Maison Ikkoku isn't what he's upset about.
Hey, you--
Y-Yeah?
Put the table away, Hon. I'll make the bed.
O-Okay!
I don't get this!
Get some sleep, Hon. It's been a long day.
Whatsa matter?
L-Long day. Sure been long.
I'm home, Babe!
Delivery!
Thank you!
It's for Godai.
He moved and never told his parents!
A parcel?
Why ever do you hide it?
I'm not hiding it--
It is for Godai! Shall I take responsibility?
You shall not!
I was not intending to steal the contents.
I wasn't saying you were--
You two--
Tell me what I'm missin'.
The manager is hoarding Godai's care package.
Yotsuya!
For Godai? Whatcha gonna do?
I'm NOT hoarding it!
Everybody knows that.
I'd forward it, but there's no forwarding address.
I wonder if he really wants to move.
All his things are still in Room 5.
Think he crawled away to die?
Stop that! He showed no warning signs--
Then again--
It is the 10th day.
TEN days!
Did you hear me? It's been ten days!
When are you going to move out!?
Quit screamin'! Can't move with no money!
That's not what you said! "Two, three days tops," you said!
Shut it! Yer sleepin' on my futon, ain't ya?
Speaking of which, my things will arrive this afternoon.
What!?
But it's so crowded--
Deal with it! I feel like a boarder in my own place.
That's funny, I was thinking the same thing!
I ought to return it to his parents.
But his furniture is still here--
No! Down! I ain't got food!
Excuse me!
Coming!
We're from the Moving Center. Where's Room 5?
That about does it.
Guess he meant it, after all.
Wait a minute, please!
What is it?
I'm sorry!
Take this--
I mean, could you give me the new address?
Something happened, and I never got it.
Sure. No problem.
"Clock Hill West"?
That's just the next train stop.
Okay, back to work.
Is something funny?
You coulda mailed it but you gotta hand-deliver it.
No! I just--
I know. I know. You wanna clear up the misunderstanding.
Godai'll be thrilled.
Just my luck.
Care for some tea? Your treat, of course.
Clock Hill West! Clock Hill West!
The doors are closing. Please be careful.
Umm--
Has the date been set for the ceremony?
Come again?
The wedding--
And why must I get married?
Nobody's talking about YOU!!
The marriage between the manager and--
T-The marriage between the manager and Mitaka.
Oh that! Then be at ease.
Just a misunderstanding.
Misunder--
Yeah?
Who's there?
Isn't this Godai's room?
Sure is.
Excuse me, but who are you?
We're living together.
l...
...See.
Room 5 has been rented!
Rooms 2 and 3 as well!
There's no room for Godai at Maison Ikkoku!
Next: "Scandal at Ikkoku! Godai's Shacking Up!?"
You left Maison Ikkoku not me.
