What are you doing, Karen?
It's all right, we're twins.
You still act so distant.
It's already been two weeks since we found out that we're twins!
Not "already" two weeks. "Only" two weeks.
When will we be able to take baths together?
What are you talking about? Normally you don't!
Are there siblings that actually do that? Have you seen that on TV?
There are broadcast ethics involved with TV.
Yeah.
In that case, a wake-up kiss!
I'm not going to.
If you won't, I'll intrude on your bath!
Your personality has changed too much.
That's because I want to be pampered by my big brother!
Sheesh...
M-Miina!
You sure seem to get along well...
We are twins, you know!
Even twins have their limits!
Why are you yelling at me?
It's because you're showing her an opportunity!
Is it my fault?!
S-Sorry...
You can't get into that mood! Big brother is my big brother, and mine alone!
H-Hey! Karen, get off of me!
Oh, big brother! H-Hey! Karen, get off of me!
Karen! Where are you touching?! H-Hey! Karen, get off of me!
Kitto meguri awaseta... I'm sure it's just the whim of the angels...
...tenshi no hon no kimagure da yo. ...that brought us together.
Sanpomichi de fuita sunakaze... A dusty wind blowing along the promenade...
...kokoro ga hayatteku. ...makes my heart race.
Setsunasa hagurakasu no ni wa nareteru no ni, I'm used to evading my loneliness,
...konna toki dake namida ga tomerarenai no wa... ...so why is it that I can't stop the tears...
...naze darou? ...at times like this?
Aimai na kisetsu dakara koso... It's because the season is so ambiguous...
...kasuka na tezawari kokoro de kanjite. ...that I feel these faint stirrings in my heart.
Kagirareta toki o ikiru kara... The time in which we live is finite,
...tatanda tsubasa o ima sugu hirogete. ...so spread your folded wings right now.
Tatoe niji ga kowaretemo, Even if the rainbow breaks,
...sora wa matte iru. ...the sky will be waiting.
Please Twins!
The Summer Never Ends
I see.
In other words, Maiku...
Nyu!
Nyu...!
And so, it's starting to negatively affect your work.
Yeah, you've got that right.
You still have tons of problems even if you figured out which was your relative.
You sure have a tough time, Kamishiro.
But I really understand why Karen wants to be in good spirits about this.
I share the happiness of finding a relative that I never had, too.
But we have to earn a living, right?
If I can work as much as I can during summer vacation, it will be easier on us later on.
All right. We'll do something about it.
Leave it to us.
Wait up!
And so, I made a very special dish just for my big brother Maiku.
Amazing!
I'm jealous!
And I scrub his back in the bath.
Amazing!
I'm jealous!
And I sleep with him in the same bed.
Amazing!
Oh, I can't resist anymore!
- Resist what? - Resist what?
All sorts of stuff.
So Karen's plastering herself all over Kamishiro every day?
I understand that Karen is happy,
...but I thought that I have to do something about it because she's interfering with Maiku's work.
Is that all?
Is what all?
Karen is plastered all over Kamishiro, and you have no chance to ask him out.
Isn't that why you're getting irritated, Miina?
W-Well, yeah, that's probably true...
Then hurry up and ask him out!
You've got to sink or swim!
But I don't want to sink...
This is amazing! Basically everything is all here!
With all this, I can surely get my work done!
You'd get worried about Miss Miyafuji and Miss Onodera if you were too far away, right?
This is relatively close to your house, Kamishiro, and it doesn't cost you anything to live in a tent.
You're a lifesaver.
I was the one that got all the equipment, though...
I owe you one, Shimazaki.
Big brother sure is late.
Maybe he's busy with lots of things.
Then I have to make sure to soothe his stress a whole lot when he gets back.
Karen, you're making too big of a fuss about Maiku.
Is that really so?
That's right.
I'm holding back the urge to fawn all over him too, you know.
You can't. The only one that can fawn all over my big brother is me, his sister.
Yeah, yeah, I see...
Geez, whatever happened to the Love Alliance?
Alliance Rule #3.
The relative will support the other's romantic relationship with Mr. Maiku.
Of course I remember that, Miss Miina.
Karen...!
But we disbanded the Love Alliance.
Someone who was a friend yesterday is now a foe...
Or rather, she upgraded herself to one wicked sister-in-law.
Big brother Maiku is my big brother, and mine alone!
But I am the one that can be romantically involved with Maiku!
It's up to big brother Maiku to answer your feelings or not, Miss Miina!
You said something that you shouldn't have...
- Maiku? - Big brother?
- Welcome back! - Welcome back!
I have obtained information that you two will find very enticing.
Man, I got so much done yesterday!
I'll finish up that module today, and then I'll...
Hey, when did that...
Hurray! It's up, it's up! The tent is up!
My little tent is up and standing!
I've popped a tent, too...
You're kidding. Why are...
All right, it's done.
Magumo-senpai?!
Hey, if it isn't Kamishiro.
Good morning.
Oh, Kamishiro!
Ma'am?!
Maiku!
Big Brother!
You guys, too?!
Maiku.
You too, Shimazaki?
What's the meaning of all this, Senpai?
I'm sorry, Kamishiro.
I don't know how, but SHE found out about this.
By "she," you mean...
Now, let's start this fun little summer camp sponsored by the student council.
Sorry I'm late!
What's wrong with him?
It's nothing.
Why am I being so relaxed?! I'm going to work! I have WORK!
WORKING!
Amazing... He's all cooped up.
I'm going to go check up on him.
Karen, don't bother him right now.
But Miss Miina, you were playing with him until just a few minutes ago yourself.
That's true, but...
Well, now... Let's leave him alone for now.
S-Sure...
All right, everyone is now free to do anything from now on.
I suggest that you work hard to make wonderful memories of this summer.
Don't make such a meaningful comment.
I was planning to do so from the very start.
Oh, geez, Hyosuke!
Is it really all right, President?
Yes.
- However, as the student council... - Tsubaki.
If you're going to be worried about Kamishiro, spend some time instead with Shimazaki.
U-Um...
Come on, Kaede.
Haruko, let's head back to our...
Maiku...
Big Brother...
Oh, it's all right, it's all right.
Then, ma'am...
Yes, that's true.
Let's go, Kousei.
T-Tsubaki...
Koishi, you can go visit Mr. Yamada right now, you know.
What are you talking about? I know you're lonely when you're by yourself.
Big brother Maiku...
Are you still whining about that, Karen?
Miina, Karen, have you heard?
About what?
I heard there's a ghost that's been appearing at this lake lately!
A g-ghost?
I wonder if everyone is going at it right about now...
We'll find out later.
Oh, nothing.
Ma'am...
Kei...
Let's make a memory of this summer.
Sure...
Now, then!
Study, study! Let's aim for Tokyo University!
A memory of this summer...
Um, well, I promise I won't do anything.
Please, trust me...
Hey, Kousei... It's not that I'm scared of being touched by a guy.
But since it's my first time, I want it to be a wonderful memory.
A memory that I would never forget.
So... Can you be gentle to me?
Tsubaki...
Yeah, I promise.
I promise...
And it latches on to a guy and doesn't let go.
It keeps on sucking the life energy from the guy.
That's...
What is that ghost like?
I heard she she's really pretty, with long hair and eyeglasses.
And her skin is so white it's transparent.
Her body is slender, yet her breasts are big...
Wow, an older woman with glasses!
And for some reason, she only goes for boys of the loser type.
Nyu!
Nyu...
Karen?
That voice...
Hyosuke, I heard a strange voice.
I'm sure it's that lonesome Matagu making a big fuss again.
No...
It's dangerous, Miina.
I'm just going to look around for a little bit.
I trust you to take care of Karen.
Maiku?
Sorry, did I scare you?
No, I'm all right.
You heard that strange voice a few minutes ago, didn't you?
Yeah, I got worried about that and looked around,
...but I didn't see anything.
It might be just Shidou-senpai making a big fuss again.
I-I see, that's what it was...
N-No.
W-Well, Maiku, you're going back to work, right?
- See ya... - Miina.
Want to have some coffee?
Is it all right?
Work has settled down for the time being, so I'm taking a break.
I guess I'll accept the offer, then.
I was able to get many fun shots, but the climax has yet to happen.
How's Karen doing?
Well, she heard that scream and had one of her "nyu"s.
Hey now, is she all right?
Haruko is staying by her side.
I see, then it's all right.
Worried about your little sister?
Don't put it that way.
I'm just worrying like anyone else would.
Sorry, I didn't mean it that way.
I have so many other things to say...
You know, Maiku?
It might be wrong of me, but I'm thankful for that scream right now.
Why is that?
Because it let me be all alone with you, Maiku.
We live in the same house.
That's not it.
There's something I want to tell you, Maiku, and only to you.
Um...
I had decided a long time ago... And I'm prepared to take the consequences.
And I've worked up the courage, too.
The only thing I have left is to put it into words.
All I have to do is tell you, Maiku!
You can't.
Why not?
Because I'M going to say it.
I'm sorry.
I knew how you felt, and actually, how I feel has been solidified, too.
But there was some reluctance in saying so.
Why? Because Karen is around?
No.
Look, Miina, we live together in the same house.
If I told you how I felt, and we ended up in that kind of a relationship...
I'm not sure about holding myself back.
Maiku...
Karen!
Oh, where's Miss Miina?
She stepped out.
H-Hey, Miina, what are you...
Maiku, tell me how you feel.
I won't regret it.
If it's with you, Maiku, I don't care what happens to me.
It's all right... So tell me. Please.
Miina, I... How I feel about you is...
You can't!
Miss Miina, you can't do that!
You can't, Miss Miina...
Don't take my big brother away from me.
Big brother is my brother, and mine alone.
That's how it is. That's definitely how it is.
Why, Karen?
Why can't I?
You don't think that Maiku and I make a good couple?
You hate me now?
T-That's not it.
But, if you became my big brother's girlfriend, Miss Miina...
...big brother Maiku would cherish you the most.
His girlfriend would be the dearest, and all family comes a distant second.
I don't want that to happen.
Karen, you really thought that way?
And is that why you were always plastered all over me?
Because I... I didn't want...
Idiot.
Yeah, Karen is an idiot.
Listen, Karen, both my family and my girlfriend would be dear to me.
I can have more than one thing that is dear to me.
Right, Karen?
Karen, Maiku is a brother only to you.
But if you could, could you make him OUR Maiku?
The three of us are one when all three are here, right?
Karen, you were the one to say that.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Miss Miina. But I was worried.
I was really, really worried...
I'm sorry, Miss Miina!
Hot! HOT!
- Maiku! - Mr. Maiku!
What is it?
What's going on?
Miss Miyafuji, your outfit...
NOOOOO!
Is something wrong, Kamishiro?
Well, um...
That was a great punch line, Kamishiro.
P-President...
W-What are you taking pictures of?!
Everything that you guys had been doing.
Impossible!
Then, my...
A wonderful memory of this summer...
President?
What's the matter?
What?
What just happened?
Oh, this is so perfect...
An older woman... Glasses...
The forbidden play of masochism...!
A definitive photo of a ghost on the shores of Lake Kizaki has been shot the other day!
We have proceeded with an undercover report to verify its authenticity! Malice of a Beauty Lake Kizaki Apparition

Hey, did you see that horror special this past summer vacation?
Yeah, the one where our student council president took a photo of the ghost, right?
I heard that Haruko's big brother was the victim.
Yeah, I heard that he's still in the hospital.
No Visitors Allowed Yeah, I heard that he's still in the hospital.
No Visitors Allowed
I've had enough.
No matter where we go, people are talking about it.
W-What is it?
Maiku.
Who is that girl?
I don't know, but he...
H-He just accepted a letter from her!
Impossible!
Karen!
Miss Miina!
It's time to reform the Love Alliance!
That's my Maiku!
That's my big brother!
Don't you dare lay a finger on him!
