Club
Are you playing that world champion again?
Something's not right.
What's not right?
This coffee is a little strange.
What?
Your coffee?
I have a feeling it's completely different from the coffee my Nii-Nii usually makes me.
Nii-Nii?
One of my brothers is an expert on coffee.
He always gives me a specially-made pot of coffee.
But in that case, why are you drinking canned coffee?
I've always wanted to try it.
But I have a feeling it tastes strange.
Wait a minute.
Sometimes people do things to coffee as a prank.
I don't think there's anything wrong with this.
No, it's strange.
Really?
No, there's nothing strange about it.
Isn't it too sweet?
This is how they always taste.
But it's strange.
Try drinking it again.
What is it?
Nothing, I...
It's okay.
This is what canned coffee is supposed to taste like.
That's not the essence of the problem.
What?
But, I...

Episode 2 「Friendship, Love, Her Abnormality?」
W-What was that?
Oh, that is Mao's...
What are they called?
They come before and after TV commercials.
Do you mean the eye catch?
Yes, that.
She must be trying to change a bad dream.
What are you talking about?
I don't know, but it's very Mao-like.
I see.
Shion-san, did the president call that an eye catch?
No, that is my theory.
It is based on observation and hypothesis,
and the experimentation necessary to prove a hypothesis.
It is the same as following the scientific method.
What do you mean, experiments?
Watch this.
Mao, there are currently very delicious looking pork buns in front of you.
There's a mountain of them.
It's amazing.
Oh, no.
Kyoro-kun has appeared.
What?
He's eating all your pork buns.
He's holding you back by your forehead,
and your punches can't reach him.
It is terrible.
I wouldn't do that.
She's suffering.
See?
You slept a long time, Onee-chan.
Your hair gets tangled so easily.
The president seems like a different, calmer girl.
Shinomiya-kun, would you like to try?
What?
You're watching her like you'd like to brush her hair.
No, I don't particularly...
There's no way I could touch a girl's hair.
Besides, I'm sure the president would get angry and bite me...
Would you like to do it?
H-Here I go.
Okay.
Ow.
Oh, sorry.
If you get stuck, pull back a little bit.
You can't force it.
You'll cut them or make split hairs.
Okay.
If it's too tangled,
it may be a good idea to try untangling it with your hands first.
What?
I can use my hands?
Yes.
In that case...
Are you okay?
President, where have you been playing?
What?
Nothing.
The tea is ready!
Oh, thanks.
How was that, President?
I-It was all right.
You'll make me jealous.
W-What do you mean?
It wasn't my choice to let him...
How long are you going to keep touching my hair?
Your milk tea with plenty of sugar.
Thank you.
Sweet milk tea is delicious.
It's not bitter like coffee.
Oh, but I like sweet can coffee.
You're a child.
Having you say that cuts especially deep for some reason.
How unusual.
What?
Shion-san's reading a novel.
Yes.
Isn't that your book, Shinomiya-kun?
Yes, it is.
What kind of story is it?
I guess it's a romance novel, instead of a battle story.
I thought a girl might enjoy it.
So you left it there.
Yes.
Shinomiya-kun, you're surprisingly scheming.
S-Scheming?
Shion-san has fallen into your trap.
She seems hooked.
It wasn't a trap...
She turned back a page.
What could she be reading so intently?
Who knows?
You said it was a romance novel,
but what kind of romance novel is it?
It's what they call "boy meets girl" in English.
Ah, then Shion-san must be intently reading the "girl meets boy" part.
Ahem.
Shinomiya-kun, I understand.
I'll bring you some lemon tea.
Shall we try the Nilgiri?
I'm sorry, I...
Thank you for letting me read this.
Shion-san.
Um, did you enjoy it?
Oh, yes.
I hadn't read many romance novels until now, but I enjoyed this one.
I actually have the second volume.
Um, did you not like it?
No, that's not it.
I'm thinking.
There were a few parts I didn't understand.
What didn't you understand? Which parts?
For example, here.
When the girl is telling her feelings to the teddy bear.
When she says she loves him.
A teddy bear is probably a stuffed bear of some kind.
I know that.
Maybe she didn't have anyone to talk to,
so she was talking to a stuffed animal.
I understand that, too.
I sometimes talk to the Jack in a deck of cards.
So... So, then...
Here.
This.
This part right here.
The part where she realises she's in love with the protagonist?
Yes.
I don't understand the feeling of love very well.
What?
What does it feel like to fall in love with someone?
Why?
I've never been in love.
Did I say something strange?
Well, um...
Let's play.
What?
It's called "Twister".
Another dangerous game.
Is it dangerous?
Megu, Shi, fight?
Twister's a competitive game
in which you spin the needle and put your hands and feet on the indicated colours.
I don't stand a chance against Megumi-kun.
Let's play.
Fine, let's get started.
You girls are dangerous!
What's so dangerous about it?
Fight?
Do you give up?
Not yet.
I'm confident in my body's flexibility.
I told you, it's dangerous.
Left hand, yellow.
Yellow?
Let's see...
She's not concerned about how men see her.
I won't lose...
Every game with rules has a method to increase your chances of winning.
For example, in this game,
I evaluate the colour statistically most likely to be selected next,
and take the best position for increasing my odds.
Hurry, spin the needle...
Right foot, red.
If I calculate the current pose to win under current conditions...
In this case, that pose is...
The pose is...
I can't...
No!
I can't do something so embarrassing!
You're blushing.
Megu wins!
V.
Megumi, how did you win this time?
I usually lose to Shion-san, but I had a feeling I could beat her at this.
Shion, what are your thoughts?
A perfect winning simulation appeared in my mind,
but my own sense of shame interfered with taking action.
However, I will not lose next time.
Bring it on.
Here you are.
Thank you.
Did you make this, Shinomiya-kun?
You both worked so hard I wanted to do something.
You're such a good person.
What?
Do you really think I'm a good person?
Yes, I do.
You don't even get angry when my sister bites you.
That's what you're talking about?
Did you know? My sister stopped biting people recently.
No, she still bites me.
You're the only one she bites.
Hey!
Why am I the only one she bites?
Because you don't get angry.
Uh...
Because you're a good person.
I see.
Shion-san, you tease Shinomiya-kun a lot, don't you?
You think so?
I have a feeling you're making fun of me.
That's because she likes you.
Really?
Also, Kirara-san likes you a lot.
You really think so?
She only gives her meat to you.
I feel like that isn't so bad.
I'm happy you're here, too, Shinomiya-kun.
I have a reason to make tea.
Oh, but you made tea for me this time.
Drink up.
It'll get cold.
I will.
It's my first time making tea.
How is it?
Terrible.
What?!
Ready, go!
What?
I'm going to teach you a lesson.
You want to arm wrestle?
Humans use very few of their muscles.
However, using my dark presidential powers,
I can activate all the hidden muscle power I have.
What do you mean, presidential powers?
You're not a president.
You wouldn't understand.
If becoming a president really gave you special powers,
the world would be full of people with powers.
Just get ready!
The GJ Club arm wrestling battle is about to begin.
The winner will receive the special sweets
our parents brought back from their trip abroad yesterday.
Ready, go!
What?
Not bad, Kyoro.
You're putting up a good fight.
Um...
What?
Just so you know, don't make me laugh.
Have we already started?
Of course we have!
Shinomiya-kun wins.
O-Okay...
Don't get ahead of yourself just because you beat me.
I'm the weakest one of the group.
What group?
Will you be able to defeat the next challenger?
Please go easy on me.
Okay, then!
Ready, go!
She's stronger than the president, but...
Shinomiya-kun wins.
O-Okay...
Kyoro-kun, don't get ahead of yourself just because you beat me.
The phrase "fair play" is not in our evil dictionary.
You're evil?
Your next challengers may not come to face you one on one.
Let's fight.
We're the Amatsuka sisters!
President, didn't you just lose?
I'm not the president.
What?
We're three sisters.
She's filling in for Seira, the youngest sister.
Nice to meet you, Onii-chan.
There's nothing she won't do.
Ready, go.
Two at once is pretty difficult.
And Megumi-chan is surprisingly strong.
You're so strong.
Give us a break, Onii-chan.
Stop calling me Onii-chan.
I've got a younger sister, too.
You think you've won?
This is our trump card.
You want me to fight all of you.
Okay, let's do this, Kirara.
Ready, go!
What?
What?!
Shinomiya-kun, help me.
What is she doing?
I don't know.
What is this?
How did this happen?
It must be because she ate her prize.
What was it?
Whiskey bonbons.
Kirara-san.
President!
Leave her be.
That kind of thing's normal at a girl's school.
Calm down, Kirara-san.
I don't think I taste very good.
She k-kissed her...
Shion-san!
There's nothing to worry about.
That's neither hunger nor libido.
I believe it is simply her way of expressing affection.
Of course, there's no way to test it, and it is only a hypothesis...
Hey, Kirara! What are you doing?
Kirara, try to calm down.
It may be normal at a girl's school, but this isn't good.
I mean, I'm a boy.
What?
L-Let's forget this ever happened.
