Seiji...
Dammit!
I don't get this differential and integral stuff at all!
Wait a minute, doesn't she go to that elite high school, Ogurabashi?
If I got her to take tomorrow's test...
Why don't we have some fun with a game?
Game?
All right. If I can play it with you, anything works for me.
Playing for nothing's no fun.
So how about the loser has to do whatever the winner says?
All right, that's fine.
Why're you blushing?
Here we go!
Right!
Rock paper scissors!
Look that way! Rock paper scissors!
Best... two out of three. We aren't done yet!
Okay!
Rock paper scissors!
Look that way! Rock paper scissors!
T-That was just a warm up. I've got it from here!
I'm going for a shutout!
Rock paper scissors!
Look that way! Rock paper scissors!
I won, I won!
But I thought I was good at fighting and "Look that way"...
Oh well, I'll take it on my own...
Um, about that rule from before...
Oh yeah, that's right.
I can really ask you for anything at all, right?
Sure!
A man's true to his word. I'll buy new clothes or whatever for you.
Then...
Please tell me you love me.
What stupid crap is that? I can't say that!
But before you said I could ask for anything...
Damn, why's it coming down to this again?
Well, it's all right if it's a lie.
I guess I wanted to hear those words come from your mouth...
That's all it is.
F-Fine. I just have to say it, right?
Yes!
Yeah, I just have to say this one thing! Then it'll be over and done with.
A man's true to his word, Seiji!
I... l... l... loooo...
loooo...
N-Next time, okay?
Oh no, Seiji!
P-Pipe down. This ain't the time for that anyway!
Crap. Haven't I said that stuff to girls plenty of times already?
I love you!
I'm sorry!
Stupid freakin' sea!
Midori said it's all right even if it's a lie, so why can't I say it?
It's just "I love you"...
Seiji... I love you a ton.
You didn't say it, so I thought I'd try. Silly me.
Say it all you want!
I need to study! I'll be up all night at this. You go get some sleep!
Okay.
Onkirikiribasara unhatta!
Kuwahhhta!
This evil spirit is quite resolute.
An hour has elapsed, with no change. Next person, please.
You find I very different from degenerate Japanese monks.
With 4000 years Chinese chi kung technique, problem solved.
Thank you for your efforts.
Ma'am, I really don't think these shady people will be able to save Midori.
Kota. I don't care anymore how it happens.
Anyone will do, as long as they save her.
We have to do what we can.
Ma'am...
What if I had kissed Sawamura then...
But, he had no idea it was me.
No!
He was attracted to me in disguise!
It's not the same thing. That's right! I'm going to face this as I am.
As for today's plan...
Ta-da!
Sawamura.
What is it, Ayase?
You can use this, if you'd like.
I tried organizing the test topics in a way you'd understand.
Goodness gracious, you'd do so much for me!
Thank you, Ayase.
You really are dependable.
In college, in the working world, would you be by my side?
While I'm at it, would you be there my whole life?
Your whole life? You mean...
Yes, marry me.
All right. I've already stamped the papers!
Takako.
Seiji.
I call it the "Proposal with a Lovely Notebook Plan!"
Hey, Ayase.
S-Sawamura!
What're you grinning about all alone?
N-Nothing.
Your face's red. Have you got a fever or somethin'?
I... I don't have any fever!
But, you look like you're sweating too.
You're wrong, okay?
That's cool then.
Oh! Sawamura, wait!
Huh?
Did you study enough for today's test?
I was up all night, but now I don't know if it did any good.
Don't sound so proud about it. Here.
What's this?
It's a notebook that'll let you understand the test topics. I'll lend it to you.
Why does it have hearts?
Are you sure?
Yes, I have it all up in my head.
Don't get the wrong idea. I didn't especially make it for you.
That's really well done. Ayase's got a lot of time on her hands.
Ayase, I'm sure you made this notebook just for Seiji.
I'll borrow it, then. Thanks.
Idiot. I'm such an idiot. Why can't I come out and say it?
When I look at Ayase I'm reminded of the old me.
How I used to be awkward and not slow.
But... I get the feeling that Ayase is much more frank and courageous...
...than I was then.
Why... Why is Midori still asleep?
What can I do about it?
Please!
Huh? H-Hey...
Please, Sawamura! Come to Midori's place...
Sorry, Shingyouji.
I mean, I'm pretty busy.
In other words... it's not a good time.
So I can't go.
We have to do what we can.
That's right. We have to do what we can.
I'll try asking Sawamura once more.
That punk, Sawamura. There used to be so much talk about the Mad Dog.
But lately they say he's been remarkably quiet.
Let's pay him back in full what we owe him.
They're talking about Sawamura...
Excuse me. Are you all friends of Sawamura?
What? Who're you?
Hello, I'm Kota Shingyouji from Ogurabashi High.
I need to ask Sawamura a favor... Has he not come out yet?
Listen you, do we look like we're his pals?
Well?
Yes. I mean you're all delinquents like him, aren't you?
Although, even if he is a delinquent, Sawamura is a very good person once...
...you get to know him.
Huh?
Don't "huh" us. You take us for fools or somethin'?
Why are you angry?
We've never met and you called us delinquents.
You're comin' with us.
Wh-What are you doing? Sawamura!
Please come out!
Huh?
It's no use, I'm not used to all-nighters, and I fell asleep during the test...
Keep fighting, Seiji! There's still the makeup test!
Great, another one.
Oh, I'm sorry! Great, another one.
I'm not sure if I'm making you feel better or worse.
It's fine, I mean when I think about it, before I got like this with you...
...all I did was fight everyday. I'd never studied for a test.
And it's like, things keep on changing.
"Before I got like this with you..."
You're missing the point!
You should listen more closely to people.
This place...
Yes.
You wanted to come to this neighborhood park?
This is my favorite place.
Huh?
The first time I came here was when I wanted to tell you how I felt...
But back then, I couldn't do anything but look at you...
I thought it would be great if you and I could spend time together here...
I wish time would just stop like this...
I want to keep watching the fountain with you like this forever.
We can come back anytime.
That's true.
That aside, I'm hungry. Let's go get something to eat.
Okay!
I-It's like everyone here is a couple in love.
Don't remind me. I bombed the test, I'm starving, and now I'm embarrassed.
The jerks are all flirting with each other.
Well...
Why don't we try acting like a couple in love too?
I said it!
Man, ain't there any girls who're interested in me?
I am! I'm here!
I love you more than anything in the world! In the universe!
I said it!
Man, ain't there any girls who're interested in me?
Hmm... huh!
One hamburger steak. Thanks for waiting.
Took long enough! Huh?
She's so my type!
It's hot, please make sure to be careful.
Yes of course, I shall be extra careful.
Enjoy, take your time.
Yes ma'am, I will be happy to!
The waitress sure is cute.
Awesome! This restaurant is the best!
Seiji, Seiji.
What do you think? Huh? What're you doing?
This ain't tofu, it's real beef!
I'm gonna savor this.
Huh? Miya?
I've been looking for you.
Sorry, I forgot my cell today...
A guy who was looking for you at the main gate got carried off by...
...the punks from Hanzoumon.
I've got no idea who you mean. Who was looking for me?
He had kind of a middle school feel to him.
That don't ring a bell.
Really? He didn't seem like the kind of guy who'd hang out with you.
He was all refined, all elite.
Then of course not!
You said it!
Excuse me for bein' unrefined!
Seiji, what if he means Kota?
It was the Hanzoumon punks?
Yes...
Sawamura?
Seiji, where do you plan to go?
Their gathering spot. Those scumbags drag people in who ain't even involved.
It must be my fault...
Ouch! That hurts!
Please stop this!
What are you doing? Please give my clothes back!
What exactly have I done?
Shut up, ya little brat!
This is what happens when you mouth off.
I may not have chosen my words very well, but...
...I think this treatment is unjustly violent!
No understanding comes from violence! Don't we lose more than we gain?
As humans, living beings who can reach understanding through discussion...
Riding this spaceship named earth...
Shut him up! Riding this spaceship named earth...
You stand watch here.
Y-Yes sir!
Now what do we do?
Let's see, this guy seems to know Sawamura. If we use him as bait...
There's no need for that.
Sawamura!
If you want a piece of me, why don't you just come ask?
Kota!
Are you okay, Shingyouji?
Sawamura!
Hold on a minute. I'll untie the rope once I beat them up.
Say what? Quit talkin' trash!
Try and take us if you can, bitch!
Punk!
You little...
What are you, zombies?
What happened to your demon right hand?
Screw you. I can take wimps down one-handed.
Enough crap!
Seiji!
Keep your head down.
Stop this, please!
Shingyouji, you keep out of this.
Sawamura...
I've had enough of this!
Midori?
Bastard!
We did it...
Yes we did.
E-Excuse me.
Midori?
No way... What's happening?
Midori, Sawamura's right hand...
Kota!
Hey, Shingyouji! You okay?
Hey! Shingyouji!
With the two of them in big trouble because of me, there's no way I could...
...just stay quiet and watch.
But because of that, Kota...
...ultimately found out our secret.
We've spent many happy days together, but what is true happiness?
Midori Days, Days 12: Sudden Separation.
Thank you, Seiji.
