Such reckless emotion, such raw passion those first-years exhibited.
Indeed.
The cloudless eyes of those newborn foals, looking up to the sky,
and the tears swelling up within them like the morning fog...
they moved me.
Despite that, the adults yearn to pluck the buds of their consciousnesses...
We must hold firm and fight!
Then let us prepare for the coming battles by engaging in some merry-making.
Erika's cute look and healthy skin are ready for her date!
A magical makeup look befitting of a playful fairy!
"A playful fairy"?!
Are we talking "A Midsummer Night's Dream" fairies, or "The Hunter's Moon" fairies?!
Tell me!
If a Girl Peeked
A high-school girl makes her striking debut: Ai Narimasu A breakthrough work that explores young desires
M-Miss?!
I'm going home.
Huh? Really? Good-bye.
Bad-bye.
Thank you!
How may I hel-
C-can I get a paper jacket for this?
Sorry, but we don't have jackets for magazin-
Fine, use a bag!
Two bags! Please!
The word "romance" is not yet written
In the pages of this book born of love
Why does everyone want to know about it?
What's so wonderful about it?
Did you want to know about it, too?
Would I not have known you if I hadn't learned about it?
I don't want it to be like this!
It's been a boring fifteen pages
But when I turned the page
I nearly suffocated on my choked breath
I can't express these feelings in words
But they're totally overwhelming me again today
I was such a proper girl, I didn't want to know about it
About the truth behind this agony
But even if I get hurt, I won't stop reading
I can't stay pure like this
I'm learning about you in these pages
Run wild, O maidens
Fight back, O maidens
Go forth knowing that pain
We don't need a bookmark
Episode 3: Willy's Real Rear Wheel
Why didn't you tell me?
Ah, jeez.
Grown-ups usually go with both Plan A and Plan B at the same time. It's normal.
You could've told me it got published-
Well, if I'd told you that, you would've stopped writing.
To be honest here, your novel is just way too unrealistic.
It feels like total fantasy.
Lines like, "I'm gushing wet, please put it in me already."
I mean, come on.
What is this, some old dude's wet dream?
Seriously!
Don't laugh!
Oh, come on...
Very well.
Why?
I'm gushing wet. I want your cock so bad.
Hitoto: I'm gushing wet. I want your cock so bad. Milo: You're so cute, Hitoto-chan. But don't rush things, okay?
He's completely happy with this...
Oh God, I can't take it anymore.
I'm gonna unzip your pants.
Come on, look how hard you are.
Why, why, why?!
Hitoto: Oh God, I can't take it anymore. I'm gonna unzip your pants. Hitoto: Come on, look how hard you are. You're so, so, so hard. Milo: Hitoto-chan, I'm guessing you don't actually want to do it today?
Why?
don't you get it
I don't mean online
I want to have sex with you
in real life
Don't you get it?
I don't mean online I want to have sex with you IRL.
Sugawara-san?
Do you have a sec?
I've gotta head to the Literature Club soon.
Sorry, there's just something I need to ask you.
About es-ee-ecks?
J-just come on!
Whoa-ho!
When'd he and Sugawara-san start hanging out?
No fair, Norimoto!
You recorded it, right?
Huh?
Yeah.
Did you delete the video?
Didn't you just create one more thing for me to worry about just now?
Huh?
Pulling me out of there like that. People are probably going to talk.
Right. Sorry!
Huh, interesting.
You can handle and respond to criticism.
I thought you were slower on the uptake.
Back in middle school, there was this weird thing going on between Kazusa and the other girls...
I took too long to notice... and she got hurt.
I thought it'd be fine once we got into high school...
but it doesn't seem like that's about to happen.
I'm trying to be careful, but I might not be doing the best job.
Question:
If you had to do it with someone or the Earth was going to blow up, who'd you pick?
What?!
Yeah, I know, that's not the kind of question we're supposed to ask guys.
Love and sexual desire are two different things, too.
Different question, then. What if-
H-hold on! I gotta say, don't you think this is weird?!
Weird?
You know, girls talking about doing it, about, uh...
Having es-ee-ecks... Isn't that weird?
That makes two unexpected discoveries about you, Norimoto-kun.
I thought you were more easygoing, but it seems you're still pretty old-fashioned.
No, I just-
We think about it.
Girls think about it, too.
Kazusa does, too.
Oh right, the video.
Please!
Sorry!
I'm sorry, I'm just so busy with the Tea Ceremony Club that I can't do both!
What's going on?
It's the Literature Club.
I apologize.
While I may be a teacher, I am first and foremost a human being.
You understand, yes?
I have the right to choose. Will you ask one of the others, please?
Huh? Advisor of the Literature Club?
Huh?
Not him.
I had no idea we were so disliked...
What do you think the problem is?
Everyone rejected us...
When I die, I wanna be reborn as a Shepherd's Purse flower...
I want to be a daisy fleabane.
Huh?
Emphasis on the lowly flea.
Sonezaki-senpai...
This has really hit her hard...
She's cared more for the Literature Club than anyone, after all.
In any case, let's talk more about this on Monday.
Okay.
Is there anything I can do to help?
Maybe instead of finding an advisor, we could get a list of signatures supporting us...
But that wouldn't work.
Everybody hates us.
And if everyone hates us, nobody will start liking us.
Not even Izumi.
It's no use.
I've got too much to think about right now...
Oh, Kazusa!
Good timing!
Izumi said he'd be home by lunchtime.
Where's that ketchup...? U-uh, ma'am, I actually...
Oh, it's fine!
You love my meatloaf, don't you, Kazusa?
B-but...
Oh, that's right!
Izumi took it up to his room to eat dinner.
And he left it up there!
Sorry, Kazusa, but could you go up to his room and grab it for me?
I'm coming in...
I wonder if that porn video he was watching was something he got online...
Wow, I haven't seen this in forever!
My Neighbor Poporo
Guess Izumi still watches it by himself sometimes!
Why'd you ask Kazusa?!
Oh, what's the problem? She's not a stranger.
She's basically a stranger! Jeez!
K-Kazusa...
H-hey, I'm gonna go!
Give this to your mom!
Bye!
Hey!
Huh? Why are you heading home?
Uh, I forgot I have somewhere to be!
What about my meatloaf?
My Neighbor Poporo
This world of ours is full of unexplained mysteries.
There are so many things I don't even know about myself.
Why...?
Why'd I bring it with me?!
The Wheels on the Cummuter Bus Go "Oh Yeah, Harder!"
I'm heading out for a bit.
'Kay.
It's a total turnoff when you undress a girl and her bra doesn't match her panties, don't you think?
Whoa, whoa, we're on daytime TV here! But you've got a point.
Right?
Guess us guys have the advantage there.
I'm pretty sure my panties are yellow..
Though the only ones I wear are my tighty-whities.
That's gotta be a turnoff for you girls out there!
Sis, take your panties off.
Wait, what?!
Hey!
Press the home button to unlock
If he looks like he hasn't bathed in half a year...
or like he's gonna kidnap me and sell me overseas...
Milo: I'll meet you at 1PM at Shibuya Station in front of the Moai statue.
If he's a shitty guy, I run.
If he looks like he hasn't bathed in a week, if he's just kind of gross...
Then I bite the bullet and do it.
Milo: I'll meet you at 1PM at Shibuya Station in front of the Moai statue.
Milo: I'll be wearing something with flowers on it.
It's just unrealistic.
I know what I need.
I need experience!
Moai statue. 1 PM.
Flowers.
He doesn't look shitty at all.
Actually, he kind of looks like someone I know...
Es-ee-ecks is truly terrifying...
Izumi's mom brought over some meatloaf!
All right, it's even got quail eggs in it!
She said you left in a hurry, Kazusa. She was worried about you, you know.
Es-ee-ecks is changing Izumi, too.
I've gotta ask my elders for wisdom!
What's wrong, Kazusa?
Hey!
Huh?!
I wanna ask about, uh... when you made me!
What was it like... when I was born?!
It was such a happy day.
Huh? It was?
Mm-hmm. Painful as it was.
So it does hurt...
Was there blood?
Oh yeah, tons of blood.
It took over ten hours, after all.
Over ten hours?!
But the second you were born and I looked into your eyes,
I knew it was all worth it.
Wait, I looked at you?!
I don't think you could see at that point.
Hey, maybe she did!
Kazusa was born with all that hair, after all!
You're right.
U-um, I wasn't asking about the day I was born, but, uh...
Thank you for working so hard back then, dear.
Please, you stayed awake the whole time, rubbing my back.
And Kazusa gave it her all, too!
You're right!
Thanks, Kazusa!
How did we end up like this?
It's been so long since we slept together as a family!
I'm getting excited.
Maybe we should do this once a month!
In any case, I've gotta get that back to him...
Oh, good idea!
I hope he hasn't noticed!
Gone! Gone! Gone!
Gone! Gone!
My Blu-ray's gone!
Why?!
So, you couldn't find an advisor?
No... Unfortunately, we did not.
Please, could you give us a little more time? I'm sure we'll figure something out...
You know nothing will be figured out.
Please stop trying when you know it's pointless.
You've got to have yourselves an advisor.
I applaud your efforts, but unfortunately...
Allow me to introduce you...
to the new advisor of the Literary Club, Yamagishi-sensei.
Thank you for having me.
Huh?
Blackmailing me is low.
Call it whatever you want.
Just like that, our club escaped being disbanded.
"His face came towards mine like a falling boulder, desperate,
then, he kissed me.
It was a kiss heavy with the scent of desire.
As I drank it in, tears began to flow down my cheeks,
bitter tears reminiscent of those born of humiliation."
What did you think of that passage, Sensei?
Do you really need my thoughts?
Yes, please.
The protagonist senses that her fate is about to take a dramatic turn for the worse,
so she's trying to distract herself from it by sleeping with a man she's just met.
Your light, clear voice perfectly expressed the unease and fear the protagonist was feeling.
You did an excellent job.
Wow!
I knew we'd hear a good analysis from our Language Arts teacher, Yamamoto-sensei!
It's Yamagishi.
"Yamagishi" is kind of hard to remember...
I think it's an extremely normal name.
How about we call you Milo-sensei instead?
Huh?
Why Milo?
The statue Venus de Milo is a depiction of the goddess Aphrodite.
The goddess of love, beauty, and sexuality.
Our current problem was born of es-ee-ecks, of sexuality itself,
and Milo-sensei has lovingly wrapped it up for us.
What kind of story is that supposed to-?
I don't really get it, but I like it!
It's perfect!
Milo-sensei!
Do you think that's alright, then?
Sonezaki-senpai?
Oh, I'm sorry!
I'm glad it all worked out alright, but...
Today, I understood why our club has been so lacking.
The reason...
is that I have far too much responsibility as club president.
She's from our Literature Club, right?
She gives off such a freaky aura.
You kind of look like Erika.
A magical makeup look befitting of a playful fairy!
Sensei!
Thank you very much for today, Milo-sensei.
You might not know this...
but my screenname doesn't come from Venus de Milo, it's from Tough Kids Drink Milo.
"Tough Kids Drink Milo"?
Good, they're all still out...
It was about train gropers, right?
Is Izumi into doing that kind of stuff?
Huh? Train gropers?
The Wheels on the Cummuter Bus
Commuter bus...
Izumi sure does love his transportation.
Bullet Train Railway Festival Oct. 25 (Sat.)
He loves trains most of all,
but he doesn't want to ruin them with sex stuff.
Still, he likes transportation vehicles...
so he went out of his way to get bus porn...
Sorry for getting the wrong idea, Izumi.
I thought you'd changed a lot, but you've only changed a little.
It might be a porn DVD, but you chose a nice one.
It's a Blu-ray.
I-Izu-
I-Izumi?!
Look, I want to make a bunch of things clear.
C-c-clear?
I'll admit, I think about this kinda stuff...
But I never think about doing it with anyone close to me or anything.
Huh?
Like, with girls at our school, or Asada-san from before,
or even you, Kazusa!
I don't want to do it with anyone! Not one bit!
I've never even thought about it!
You haven't thought about doing it with me... at all?
Izumi doesn't want to do it with me...
The Wheels on the Cummuter Bus Go "Oh Yeah, Harder!"
not one bit?
Why is that making you cry?
Wait!
Stop!
I'm not stopping!
Kazusa!
Izumi...
S-sorry!
L-look, I'll say it a hundred times, it's not like I want just anyone.
I'm not even thinking about that right...
...wheel.
Huh?
Say "Willy's real rear wheel."
W... Willy's... wait, what?
Say it ten times. Please.
W-Willy's rear...
Uh, Willy's rear whee-
W-Willy's weal real...
Ah, wai-
Wheely wheer wheel-
wheel...
God, tell me
Hey, God? Tell me...
(What is it?) Hey, God? Tell me...
(Go ahead) Hey, God? Tell me...
Do grown-ups like bitter-tasting things?
C'mon, tell me!
You always give me vague answers
(Don't get mad) You always give me vague answers
I made a video for myself ten years from now
But I deleted it right after
It takes all you've got just to live a week
Paint over the calendar
Let's get excited in this amazing weather
Cinderella in love, trying so hard to be an adult
Took off her sparkling, cramped glass slippers
Stop stretching yourself, relax, take a deep breath
That's right, I'm going to enjoy my present self
Treasure this fleeting dream
Next Episode
Sonezaki-san, that looks great!
You don't even remember me?
Not one bit.
I have something to tell you. Not one bit.
No, thank you!
I don't have any desire for high school girls.
I need to put a word to these hazy feelings I don't even understand.
They're disgusting.
I'm going to try to express how I feel...
You disgust me.
Have you ever been in love before, Miss Sugawara?
What on Earth?! Really, what on Earth?!
Is this conduct within expectations?
Episode 4: The Purpose of Books
Don't think! Don't think! Read books, read books, read books!
