I wish for a good year.
I pray for my family's health, and for my grades to improve.
And...
And may I be friends with Hiroshi-kun forever.
Yuu-chan!
Yuu-chan! Quit wasting time!

C'mon, Yuu-chan! Hurry!

I got that one too.
Fortunes
I got excellent luck!
Whoa!
Fortunes
Did you get your fortunes already?
C'mon Yuuko! Take one!
Sure!
Here.
Box 35.
Well? What'd you get?
Awful... luck...
The first sunrise of the new year
Lemme see.
"Nothing you do will go as planned."
"Haste will bring naught save tragedy."
Talk about horrible!
Let me see.
"Take care not to lose your belongings."
"Be mindful of your health. Injuries are likely."
"Beware of romantic obstacles."
"Journeys are inadvisable."
Nothing but bad luck.
Don't let it bother you, Kawai-san.
He's right. Don't worry about it, okay?
What did you get, Hiroshi-kun?
I got good luck, but...
I see.
Don't agonize over it! You're naturally lucky.
Isn't that right, Miyau?
That's right.
You might have bad luck now, but it'll improve!
Really?
Of course.
You really think so?
Sure!
That makes sense.
All right. Let's go!
Okay. Everybody ready?
We will go and see the first sunrise of the new year, right?!
Sure.
All right, everyone! Let's go!
Yeah! Let's go!
I can't wait!
It's going to be amazing.
It will be a spectacular one.
It's a little chilly, though.
I've never seen the first sunrise of the new year before.
The weatherman said the weather will be ideal tomorrow.
It'll be great fun!
It's been one whole year...
You can say that again! The more the merrier!
Huh? Yuu-chan, where's your bag?
Waah! How did I...?
Didn't you leave it on the omikuji table?
Oh yeah. Didn't you leave it on top of the table?
I think so.
What'll I do?
Wait for us at the station. I'll go take a look.
Hiroshi-kun! Wait up!
Yuu-chan.
What's wrong? You couldn't find it?
Was it someplace else?
Teiouzensen Station
No.
I remember putting it on top of the table.
Teiouzensen Station
Oh! Yuu-chan! What about your money?
I've still got my wallet.
That's good.
Yeah.
There's a silver lining in every cloud!
Yeah.
Your omikuji came true.
"Take care not to lose your belongings."
Box 35 .................. Awful Luck ..................
What was that for?
Oh, that's just a coincidence. A pure coincidence.
Yeah. Don't let it get to you.
You didn't have to go that far.
But it's true.
Hashimoto! Have you no tact!?
Don't you feel sorry for her?
I'm really sorry, everyone.
I'm sorry to have troubled you.
Let's go.
Let's go see the first sunrise of the new year.
What a pity. That was my favorite bag.
Yuu-chan!
Yuu-chan! Look out!
Under Construction. Keep Clear
Huh?
Under Construction. Keep Clear
Are you all right, Yuuko?
Are you okay?
Uh-oh... 'Beware of injuries'.
That's what it said, right?
Right?
I don't think that has anything to do with your injury.
He's right. You're making a mountain out of a molehill.
The express train is now arriving at platform 3.
Oh, the train's here. Let's go.
Let's go, Yuu-chan.
I guess her fortune really is coming true.
Don't worry about it. C'mon.
Come on! Hurry!
Please refrain from rushing onto the train as it is dangerous.
It's no good. The door won't open. It's stuck.
It won't open for a few stations.
Oh, no!
Are you all right?
Wow! She's pretty!
Hello, Kugayama!
I didn't expect to see you here!
Happy New Year, Naganuma-senpai.
Happy New Year.
Are you going to see the Hatsuhinode too?
Yeah, we all are.
That reminds me!
About the soccer club's New Year party...
Oh, sorry. I foisted all the work onto you.
Oh, that's no trouble at all.
I'll take care of the catering arrangements.
They seem to be getting along nicely.
Naganuma-kun's a real player.
Why is she here?
"Beware of romantic obstacles" was written on my fortune, right?
Is she the obstacle...?
Goodbye, Naganuma-senpai. This is my stop.
Sure.
Kawai-san, I hope we can get along this year too.
Yeah, I hope so too.
Hmph!
It'll take us about two hours to reach the summit.
What? Two hours?
We have to walk for that long?
Don't dawdle. You cannot undermine the efforts to see this sunset.
We took the trouble to come this far, so let's give it our best!
Okay.
All right. Everyone ready? Let's go!
Let's go!
What a terrible fortune.
My omikuji said I'd have nothing but bad luck this year.
Come on, Yuuko. Keep up.
Why didn't you just throw it away?
I don't concern myself with silly superstitions.
I can't look at it the way you do.
Fine. Let's just go.
We are going to be left behind.
I know you're worried. It's hard to just let it go.
To be honest, I was perplexed by a palm reading I had not long ago.
It seemed to be pretty accurate, so I was worried, too.
Yeah, I see where you're coming from. It's only natural.
He understands me quite well.
My horoscope did say affinity with him is good, too.
He's much more understanding than Hiroshi-kun.
Slow down!
Come on! Couldn't you have chosen an easier route?
We'll reach the summit faster through this route.
Come on. Keep at it!
But...
Aw, man! Maybe we should've given up on this.
What are you saying?
Everyone wanted to go and see the New Year's Day sunrise,
so I came here a few days ago to find a route and calculate how long it would take.
Yeah, but...
We need to push on, or we won't make it in time.
I wanted to say this earlier, and...
Well... I think you're being too harsh.
Too harsh?
Marylin! Just let it go!
You've got a crush on Hashimo. Why else would you take his side?
Maririn! Now's not a good time.
I was just being honest. Am I wrong?
C-Calm down, girls.
Hey, Hashimo! Let's take a quick break, and then increase our pace, okay?
You're one to talk! We started late because you lost your bag!
Please, don't be so hard on her! She didn't do that on purpose!
What, you too?!
Oh, no! Why are they fighting like this?
C'mon, Hashimo. Let's take a break.
The girls are tired.
You're always like that, taking the girls' side.
You want to be popular with the girls?
I guess you might be better at chasing girls than chasing soccer balls.
You want to be popular with the girls?
I guess you might be better at chasing girls than chasing soccer balls.
Hiroshi-kun! Stop it!
Fine. Have a break for those who are tired. I'll go on ahead.
Um... Well... I'll keep going!
Me too. I don't want to make Hashimo's work go to waste.
I know. I just have to walk, right? I'll walk.
This is weird. What's with this silent march?
Hey, why don't we sing a song?
We're not on an outing, Yuu-chan.
Okay, how about reciting our New Year's resolutions?
We're not in a homeroom lesson, Yuuko.
Come to think of it, the omikuji said, "Haste will bring naught save tragedy."
I slipped on my shoe.
I'm just used to wearing these sneakers.
Did I sprain my ankle?
It also said, "Journeys are inadvisable."
Here.
You can be thoughtful when you―
People misunderstand you because you're always so tactless!
Look who's talking.
I give up.
I can't walk another step.
Rumiko's exhausted.
Fine. Let's take a short break.
It hurts!
It just goes from bad to worse.
My luck gets worse with each passing minute.
Hiroshi-kun!
What were you thinking!?
But the omikuji...
You're still going on about that?!
Well, it's coming true!
So what? Don't take it as gospel!
Easier said than done. I can't change my horoscope or my fortune.
You can't change it because you worry about it!
Oh, what do you know?
I know more than you give me credit for!
Hmph!
Lucky my foot! I'm fighting with Hiroshi-kun over this!
Someone's coming!
Took you long enough.
Rumiko!
Marilyn!
Huh? Where are Yuu-chan and Naganuma-kun?
Huh? They were...
I thought that I'd finally be able to see the New Year's Day sunrise with everyone.
What's wrong? Did you sprain your ankle?
I think so. I slipped back there, and...
Why didn't you tell me before?
But...
Well?
Are you all right, Yuuko?
Yeah.
Take it easy, okay?
Okay.
Which way?
Hashimo!
Miyau!
Should we go right?
Okay! Right it is!
Okay.
Let's go back.
Okay.
Would you like to take a break?
But we have to hurry! They must be worried sick.
Does your leg still hurt?
A little.
I can't carry you all the rest of the way.
Meanie!
Aren't you cold?
I'm fine.
Oh, that reminds me.
I brought some sweet half sake.
Would you like some?
Sure.
Here.
Warms you up, doesn't it?
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
I dragged you into my misfortune.
Oh no!
There I go again!
I can see where you're coming from, but depending on your perspective, it might be the best!
How?
Well, the year's just begun, and we got to spend some time alone.
Omikujis are no different.
Mindsets can often be negative.
Changing your perspective can change your fortune.
I guess we weren't meant for each other after all.
That's what my horoscope said.
It said that our personality and the way we think are so different, and we wouldn't get along well.
Even so, the horoscope was wrong in a lot of places too.
Isn't that right?
Yeah.
For my New Year's Resolution, I vow to end my habitually depressed state!
I resolve to stop losing my temper so easily!
Yuuko! You okay?
Naganuma! Kawai!
Hashimo?!
Hey! Naganuma!
Good grief. You're such a handful.
O-Oh, thank you! You really were worried about us!
I-It's not your fault.
It's easy to lose your way around here.
Sorry. I overreacted earlier.
I hope they're okay.
Don't say that!
Sorry.
It'll be sunrise soon.
I wish they were here to see the first sunset with us.
Yeah.
Hey!
Sorry we're late!
Yuu-chan!
Taka-chan!
Yuu-chan!
Are you all right?
Naganuma.
I'm sorry to have worried you.
I'm so glad you're safe!
Hey, over here.
It's the first sunrise of the new year.
It's so pretty.
You can say that again.
Yeah.
It was all worth it. We're all here to see it.
Yeah.
That's right.
Hey, Hiroshi-kun.
I hope...
Yes?
...that we'll be best friends this year too.
