It was August 31st, 2035.
Aloha!
Here's some macadamia chocolates I brought from Hawaii as a gift!
...and they're not listening...
Well then, how about cellphone straps from Sokoichi?
Note: Sokoichi is a parody of Kokoichi (Kokoichibanya), a huge curry restaurant chain that has a campaign offering cellphone straps, as well.
You won't believe it; they have Sokoichi in Hawaii-
Note: Kokoichi also has chains in Hawaii.
Ah, I'm sorry.
Quiet!!!
The last day of summer vacation...
Summer vacation's about to end!
Have you finished your homework?
All-nighters! All-nighters!
Fight-Oh!
Look, look!
The beach there was so gorgeous!
Ah, I knew they weren't listening.
The summer vacation that we thought was long...
...but alas, time flew.
Every time we gathered, we ended up in play mode.
Looking back,
at the closing ceremony of the first semester...
Well then, in one month,
Note: Japanese schools' summer vacation go from end of July to end of August.
see you again on September 1st.
By then...
They seem to have high expectations.
But just one month?
More than enough time.
...or so we thought.
Who was it that said we had more than enough time?!
You, yourself.
Wake up!
You'll die if you sleep!
We've stayed here for two days in a row already.
It's too much to ask, I guess.
Hey, hey, do I smell funny?
Why does octopus's kanji have a bug as its radical?
They're not bugs...
Why is herring's kanji read as "not fish"?
Is everyone making fun of herrings?
Manabi-chan?
I've got a great idea!
Let's rearrange the room!
A great leap forward!
...what?
Once we rearrange the look of the room,
everything will start working out just fine.
I think that's the only thing we can do!
Room rearrangement!
If we move the tables around, we'll make a great leap forward!
See? Isn't this place great for the sun?
Really, really good, right?
Even feng-shui-wise, the alpha waves get pissed, too!
Then, things will start working out!
I think that's the only thing we can do!
Right? The little people think so, too, right?
Right? Right?
Right?
Calm down, Manabi-
Go!
Forward, go!
Manabi! Ouch!
Forward, go!
Wait- Ouch!
Manabi-chan's broken down!
What should we do?
Leave it to me.
Mei-chan!
Wake up!
You'll die if you sleep!
You're the one that needs to wake up!
Mikan, do something!
Men shouldn't be blaming problems on others!
I'm a girl to begin with!
"D-Do something", but...
Momo-chan!
Want some?
Oh, ignoring me?
Ignoring me again?
You're a man; aren't you ashamed to be wearing a skirt?!
Stop it!
Don't strip me!
You dumb girl!
You think we can keep on winning by doing something like that?
Forgive me, senpai.
I did the wrong thing.
No, you taught me a good lesson.
Senpai!
Hey, can I say something?
We're forgetting about something important, aren't we?
What's that?
Can I say it?
Go ahead.
Can I really say it?
I said, go ahead.
Then, here I go.
We've forgot to do summer homew-
Wahhh!!
We've forgot to do summer homew-
Wah!!
And you're out!
Umm, at this rate...
...we're all going to die...
So, I propose that...
...we take turns...
...catching some sleep...
Whoever wants to go first,
come write down your name where you like.
It's too much trouble to even stand up, right?
Yeah.
Ah, look, look!
This restaurant was really delicious-
They're gone...
It's so warm and comfortable.
Yeah...
I wish we could've gone to the beach.
Yeah...
Summer vacation ends today, right?
Yeah...
It was fun, right?
Yeah...
When I woke up,
I was standing in the middle of some street.
Where was everyone?
No matter how hard I looked,
I couldn't find them anywhere.
Mikan-chan!
Hey!
Over here, over here!
Hurry up!
Look at her; she's so happy.
I wonder what kind of dream she's having.
Let's leave her like this for a bit longer.
Yeah.
Oh, isn't this shirt the one you've been wanting?
You bought it?
Yeah, with my pay.
Lucky...
Maybe I should quit being a student, too.
Hey, being part of the work force is pretty fun.
Every day's like a festival.
Next stop is Seioh Lower Hill.
Seioh Lower Hill.
No, I should get this one.
No, actually...
Dragon...
Welcome!
I'm sorry, really...
Don't worry about it.
Manabi-chan really likes oojikintoki, so she'll be really happy.
Note: Oojikintoki is a type of red bean snack.
Really?
That's great.
U-Umm...
Yes?
Takako-san, you're so beautiful!
Thank you.
Awesome...
Oojikin... the best!
Itadakimasu.
Interesting.
Interesting, indeed.
Thanks for the snacks, Takako-san.
Don't mention it.
Note: The website is a log of what happened during the first half of summer break: no sleep, working non-stop, etc.
Because when I saw Seioh Web's operation daily log...
I read that you guys have been staying here every night.
My, my!
To thank you, let me show you some photos of Hawaii!
The beach and restaurant here-
So, is the Aikoh President here to scout on us?
Ah, I'm talking to myself, huh?
Hey, am I talking to myself?
Mei-chan!
You're the webmaster for Seioh Web, right?
I think you did a great job.
Oh, I heard her heart skip a beat.
Yeah, I heard it, too.
And another thing,
I wanted to discuss something with Manabi-san.
Over here, over here!
Over here,
we'll make a HUGE gate!
When we make a large order of materials from Home Center,
we get a bit of a discount deal!
Over there we plan on having booths and booths of food.
And on that quad there, we'll have a flea market going on, too!
And over there will be a stall by Haneda-san of class 2-C.
And over there will be a stall by Miwa-san of class 1-B.
And over there will be something by Yamamoto-san and his friends from class 2-D.
Over there is Araki-san's group,
and on the field will be Kudou-san and Watanabe-san and Sawamura-san's-
Wait!
Do you remember all this?
The arrangement of whose store is where and what they're doing.
I can see it.
You can see it?
Yeah.
Thank you.
Huh?
Taka-chan, you lit the fire in us.
Every day's so much fun now...
...thanks to you, Taka-chan.
Thank you!
I'll take you around this part, too!
Come!
Merger?
We're taking them in,
to be precise.
The decrease in the number of students,
the deadlock in their administration...
In this day and age,
it's really not surprising to see them run a school aimlessly like they are.
As for things like preserving or changing the Seioh name,
we haven't decided on those small details.
But sooner or later,
Seioh High School will be merged and acquired by us, Aikoh High School.
You...
...have a personal relationship with Seioh's Student Council President, right?
What does that have...
To be honest,
I was thinking about canceling their School Fair.
Their School Fair is straightforward evidence that Seioh is being run in the wrong way.
Such temporal, harebrained, meaningless festivals.
But this is all too sudden!
At least, wait until next year-
They are still in the planning phase.
We think there's nothing harmful in doing so.
But...
Then let me say this.
Unlike the many youngsters today that search for more fun by leaving school,
you, who have chosen to stay as students, are right now...
...organizing a festival just to have fun; what's the meaning to that?
We are planning to make this announcement public on September 1st.
Prepare a public statement as our Student Council President to be read on that day.
Of course, keep this information to yourself.
Do I make myself clear?
Yes, ma'am.
Uehara-san, there are glaring errors in the data you inputted.
Please be more careful.
My bad.
I'll be more careful.
Don't mind.
Fight-o!
One shot.
Senpai.
Senpai, I've always...
Sorry, I-
Senpai, you liar!
Wait!
Lie? What lie? Huh?
Sorry, Taka-chan.
Letting you just sit there.
Oh, no, don't worry about it.
Hey.
Why are you all working so hard for this?
Hmm, let's see...
Because it's fun?
And it makes us happy?
We as a group are preparing something, right?
And then when everyone sees it,
they're all very happy,
which also makes us happy.
Yeah!
Indeed.
Not for me, though.
There you go, again.
Mei-tan, you're such a tsundere.
Note: Tsundere refers to a person who is insincere with their true feelings.
Huh?
Ignoring me 'till the end, eh?
Are you going back?
If you could wait a bit more, we can go together-
No, there's something I need to do.
Quit complaining already.
Bye bye, Taka-chan.
I couldn't see it...
...see Manabi's image...
The "something" that only we students can accomplish in that place...
Perhaps, the answer to that is...
Hello?
Ms. Superintendent?
Ah, wait, ahh!
Hey, come on, come on!
Take this and this!
Gosh...
Hey, don't fight it!
Why you!
You come on in, too, Mikan-chan!
I-I'm okay.
Good gosh.
Somehow...
I felt as though I was still watching a dream.
But...
...this wasn't a dream,
and I thought it would go on forever.
And when I thought of that...
...I just got so happy and happy...
...and couldn't hold in my feelings!
