You just don't get it, Tachibana.
You don't get it at all.
Just try going on a date with me. You'll probably be creeped out.
You'll go on a date with me?
Yeah, on a date... Huh?
You said I should go on a date with you, right?
-What? Uh, well, I just meant... -You said that, didn't you?
I did say that.
"A servant was waiting for the rain to stop under Rashomon.
RASHOMON AUTHOR: RYUNOSUKE AKUTAGAWA
This man is the only one who is under this big gate.
However, there is one bush cricket on this big column
where some of its undercoating has peeled off.
Since Rashomon is on Suzaku Avenue, it seems like there should be
at least two or three other women with straw hats or people with eboshi hats
waiting for the rain to stop just like this man is.
However, there is no one else except for this man."
MR. KONDO AKIRA
After school, shoe cupboard, resonating sound of rain
My shirt gets wet as I run out with no umbrella
You're out of my league
I wish I was the rain... so I could easily feel you
Let me touch you...
One, don't treat me like a child
Two, it's even worse to play it off by being nice
I love you Can you hear me?
I love you
Right now, I can jump over the puddle
After the rain, I caught your eye as a rainbow appeared
You're so indifferent to romance... That's why!
Raindrops sparkle against the blue summer sky
Lulu lala I'm in love
After the rain...
Right now, I have no doubts
I need no umbrella
CAFÉ RESTAURANT GARDEN
GENTLE RAIN
-Yes, I agree with you. -Hello.
Uh-huh. Yes!
My sincerest apologies.
Yes. Uh-huh.
Absolutely.
Yes. It won't happen again.
Yes. Thank you for your call.
Kase. Can you please just go and have your hair cut?
Sorry. I'll have it cut by the time I come in next time.
You've said that before.
Oh, I put up the new shift roster, so make sure to have a look at it.
Yes, sir.
Hello.
Hi there.
TACHIBANA
KONDO
Mr. Kondo, you have a day off this Saturday?
I saw it on the new shift roster.
Oh, yeah, I do have a day off that day.
It's my day off, too.
About that thing...
That thing?
About us going on a date.
-Oh, I only said that as an example. -What about this Saturday?
-What? This Saturday? -For our date.
Uh, well...
-Take me on a date, please. -Okay.
-That's a promise. -Okay.
I look forward to it.
Huh? A part-time job?
I already have one.
Oh. Private tutoring, huh.
What's the hourly rate?
Oh, that's actually pretty good. Is it someone in high school?
Oh, English, huh.
Well, I guess I can do it.
Yeah. Yup.
Oh, that does sound interesting.
Oh, sorry.
So, is this high school kid cute?
What? It's a guy? You've got to be kidding me!
If it's a high school student, I want to teach a girl.
-It's empty right now, isn't it? -Yeah, it is.
I'm so sad...
-Seriously? -Yeah.
I lost all my money from last month.
On the slot machine?
-Yeah. -Wow, that's terrible!
Oh, Mr. Kase, listen to this.
-Mr. Otsuka... -Tachibana.
-Oh... -What do you want for your meal?
I would like a sandwich, please.
Okay.
Akira Tachibana. A second-year high school student.
She's calm for her age, and is impassive most of the time.
Not likely.
Tachibana. Here's your meal.
Thank you.
What was she looking at?
Um, Mr. Kase. What's this?
Oh, that.
It's on the house.
Thank you.
She's so unfriendly.
JULY SHIFT ROSTER
-Hey. -Hello.
Oh, you're done taking your break already?
Yes.
MODERN LITERATURE
-Were you studying? -Yes.
I have an exam soon.
I haven't seen a high school textbook in ages.
Hey, can I have a look at it?
You don't want me to?
I guess you can.
Thanks.
Leave it there when you're done looking at it.
Okay.
Thank you for the meal.
-Hello! How many? -Two.
-Do you prefer smoking or non-smoking? -Non-smoking.
Certainly, sir. Please take any table you like.
You shouldn't doodle during class.
Please don't tell anyone.
Well, I guess I can keep it a secret.
But,
you have to go on a date with me.
Excuse me?
Mr. Kase.
-Huh? Didn't you have school today? -Yes, I did.
-You went back home once to get changed? -Yes.
I see.
Shall we go then?
I WAS A HERO
-Here you go. -Thank you.
I heard it's pretty scary. Are you going to be all right?
You can squeeze my hand if you get scared.
-It's empty because it's a weekday. -You're right.
I thought you went to the nail salon?
Nathan, run!
She's no longer the Angelica we once knew!
That can't be true! Hey, Angelica.
It's me. You remember me, don't you? Hurry up and...
My god, Angelica!
What? You're going home already?
Aren't you hungry?
My mother has dinner ready for me.
And here.
This is for the movie ticket, the pamphlet, and for the Coca-Cola.
Let's at least go have tea. It's supposed to be a date after all.
Hello.
Enjoy.
Tachibana, you're on the track team, right?
I used to be.
I heard you quit because you got injured?
Yoshizawa said you used to be able to run really fast.
That's all in the past.
What did it feel like to suddenly lose something that you were passionate about?
I'm sorry if I've offended you. That's all in the past, right?
I got depressed about it at that time, but I feel fine now.
-I'm having fun at work. -Because Mr. Kondo is there?
This is the first time we've established eye contact today.
Since I came on a date with you as promised, you'll keep that a secret, right?
You call this a date?
In other words, you've fallen in love with someone
because you can't be on the track team anymore.
But isn't it creepy that that someone is a 45-year-old man?
I'm leaving.
Hey...
Wait.
You didn't need to pay for anything, you know?
Wait.
Let go of me.
You're getting a call. It's from...
Mr. Kondo.
Do you want to answer it?
MR. KONDO
Hello? Hello?
Oh. It's Kondo from the Garden.
-Is this a good time to talk? -Yes.
Um, that thing we were talking about before...
About our date.
Do you have anywhere you would like to go?
Oh. I'd like to go somewhere you would like to go, Mr. Kondo.
Oh. Okay. I'll think of something then.
Yes, thank you.
You like him that much?
Things won't work out between you and Mr. Kondo.
Definitely not.
I'm not trying to be mean.
I'm saying you should have a healthy relationship with someone else instead.
That's my advice.
We'll call it a day.
We'll continue this next time.
Welcome back.
This movie seems like an intense movie.
Are you sure you want to throw it away?
Yeah, it's fine.
Throw it away, please.
It's Kondo from the Garden.
MR. KONDO
Things won't work out between you and Mr. Kondo.
This is the right meeting place, right?
Oh, I need a smoke.
Maybe I'll go smoke for a little bit.
But, it'll be bad if she comes while I'm gone.
Mr. Kondo. I'm sorry for being late.
-Um... -Oh.
You look different today.
Oh, I have a different hair style than usual.
-Shall we go, then? -Okay.
I thought you went to the nail salon?
Nathan, run!
She's no longer the Angelica we once knew!
That can't be true! Hey, Angelica.
It's me. You remember me, don't you? Hurry up and...
-Angelica! -Nathan!
Well, that was a great movie.
I can't come to watch a movie like this when I'm with Yuto.
Did you like it, Tachibana?
What? Uh...
No matter how many times I watch it, I think it's a good movie.
I see. Well, I'm glad.
Shall we head back since we finished watching the movie?
-I'd like to have something to drink. -Hello.
Are you ready to order?
Uh, um...
-One orange iced tea, please. -Certainly.
I'll have... Um...
One hot Kilimanjaro coffee, please.
Certainly, sir.
Well, my eye sight is getting worse from age.
I'm sorry that I'm such an old man.
Oh, do you come here often, Tachibana?
No, well, just once in a while.
I see.
Mr. Kondo. How many?
What? Forty-five.
-One, two, three, -Oh! You were talking about sugar!
-four, -I don't need any sugar!
five, six, seven.
I'm sorry.
Don't worry about it.
That is sweet.
This taste...
I tried to look good and I ordered black coffee on my first date.
But, sure enough, it tasted bitter.
So, I put a lot of sugar in it while my date went to the restroom.
It's the taste of my bittersweet youth.
Hello.
Speaking of which, that movie we've just watched...
It wasn't that good.
Yeah, it wasn't.
-What, seriously? -Yeah.
Wow, that's amazing.
Where do you want to go after this?
-Wherever you want to go, Shun. -You're leaving it all up to me?
What's with this cafe?
It's full of young people.
Mr. Kondo?
Oh. Um, let's get going.
I don't need the receipt.
Thank you.
-Um... -Yes?
Can I have that?
RECEIPT
Oh, um...
Sorry, I have to take this.
Hello? Oh, hi there.
Yes. Uh-huh.
Is that so?
Okay.
Uh-huh. Okay.
Thank you.
Sorry, Tachibana...
I constantly feel sad inside,
because of her youthfulness and her innocence.
And because I can't stand the fact that I'm not young anymore.
Sorry. I have to go back to the restaurant.
It's not just because of what other people think.
Above all, I just don't want to get hurt.
I'm sure she didn't have a good time today.
That's natural since it's a date with an old man like me.
That bittersweet youth ended,
and I was just left with the pain.
I'll see you at the Garden then.
Thank you for today.
No problem. Um... Bye then.
I'm home.
Akira, you went to watch the same movie twice?
You said it was a boring movie.
-Which one is the one from today? -What? I don't know.
Why did you put them together?
I told you to throw away the one from before!
-They're both the same. -No, they're not!
They're definitely not the same.
Raining One summer afternoon in a rain shower
Under the umbrella Kissing
I kissed gently on your wet cheek
I'm still longing for that season
I'm so distracted that I keep daydreaming
Nothing but you're the part of me
It's still not enough It still hasn't gone away
Innocence of our stacked hands
What a good thing we lose?
What a bad thing we knew
In the rain, I get soaked in those phrases
It's just not enough
I still can't say goodbye
To the days I dreamed of counting down
What a good thing we lose?
What a bad thing we knew
If I hadn't touched you, would I be smiling？
