A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
I want to...
lose my virginity...
to Ito.
She's remained faithful to him for three years?
She has liked Ito all these years.
By any chance...
If Ito misunderstands my intention
and makes a move on me...
Poison.
They want something that can make them shiver just by watching it.
Hey...
Have you done something like this with Miki?
Quit lying.
You knew it, didn't you?
You shouldn't sell yourself short.
Don't you think it's amazing?
You're 23, but you've stayed pure without dating anyone until now.
What do you mean?
Are you mocking me?
No, I'm not.
I can't understand people like you.
You never commit to a relationship.
You are the one who's selling oneself short.
For three years, she has been faithful to him.
You snatched this pathetic man...
away from her!
I decided to move back in with my parents.
What?
Right. You went to Sophia University too.
Do you know her?
Miki.
The Ito that Tomomi Shimahara
and Syuko Nose mentioned wants to become a scriptwriter.
He is chasing his dream.
His dream?
He wants to become a scriptwriter.
But don't scriptwriters usually work alone?
Are they all talking about the same person?
Here we go.
MIKI ZINBO (23) THE BURDENSOME VIRGIN
OUTSTANDING ORIGINAL SCRIPT
Lastly, there is a scene
where all characters bump into one another on the street.
What do you all think of this scene?
It's ridiculous.
Is that even possible?
Has anyone randomly run into the person they like?
Never.
That is too convenient.
I'd lose all interest in that kind of drama.
Tokyo is too big for such encounters to occur.
-There are too many people. -Boring! Ten more minutes to go.
That has happened to me before.
I randomly bumped into a girl I liked the other day.
Impressive! You really are special.
For most people,
such TV clichés just don't happen in real life.
We fought a lot when we were together.
But in fact, I thought we were deeply connected.
Perhaps,
that is why we bumped into each other unexpectedly.
Here we go. A word from a shallow, superficial prince.
MIKI ZINBO (23) GRADUATE STUDENT
I went there to lose my virginity.
Have you broken up with Ito?
He dumped me.
He said he couldn't date me.
I asked him to meet me so that we could talk,
but he firmly refused to meet me.
I even went to the cram school to see him.
An ambush.
She really is burdensome.
What did Ito say?
He said he is not comfortable dating a virgin.
About losing your virginity...
Who are you planning to lose it to?
I asked...
an acquaintance from college to help me.
I want to get this thing over with as soon as possible.
What does this person do for a living?
He's a scriptwriter. Just like you.
Really?
I heard that he's quite famous.
Does this man happen to be...
Bingo.
I knew it was Kuzuken.
Wow.
You look sexy today.
-Really? -Yes.
Your hair is wet.
Did you go for a swim?
-Yes. -I see.
Let's go to the restaurant before we head to the room.
Let's have some food first and get it done afterwards.
-Let's get it done now. -Stop it.
We're going to do something a lot worse than this soon enough.
I'm sorry to bother you with this while you are busy with your work.
Don't worry about it.
There is no time like the present.
What do you mean?
How should I explain this?
If you want to lose your virginity,
you should go for it right away.
Just go for it once you've made up your mind.
I know this is too late for me to ask, but you don't have a girlfriend, do you?
Don't worry about that.
I'm only interested in flings.
You're a terrible person.
I'm telling you...
you don't have to worry about anything.
What?
-Here you go. -You must be joking.
Oh, gosh. Thank you.
I'm so happy.
Well then.
Happy Birthday, Zinbo
-Happy Birthday, Zinbo -Quit doing that.
-Okay. -One, two, three...
-Sorry! I thought you were the cake. -What was that?
-I made a mistake. Go again. -Come on.
One, two, three.
I did it again!
Somehow, you looked like the frosting to me.
You're talking nonsense.
Go ahead.
-Don't do that again, okay? -I won't. Go ahead.
Congratulations!
Thank you.
It's her birthday.
Thank you.
Hey...
I'll ask you one last time.
Are you sure you want to do this with me?
Why are you asking me that now?
I'm just checking.
Listen.
If we have sex...
you will never be able to forget me.
What? That's an exaggeration.
No! I am being serious.
You can never forget your first time.
Whenever you sleep with someone else,
you'll be reminded of your first time with me.
That's fine.
I have already made up my mind.
Okay.
Then, I will help you carry out your plan.
I'll leave it to you.
Why did you suddenly decide to lose your virginity?
What?
I think I've had enough.
I just want to get it over with.
People say all sorts of things to a 23-year-old virgin.
What? What do people say to you?
They say virginity is precious.
Well, virginity is precious.
I didn't keep it because I wanted to.
Who said that to you?
-A friend of mine. -I see.
But she sleeps around.
What?
Her relationships never last.
Don't you think she shouldn't be the one telling me something like that?
Well, I guess.
You must have thought that she was making fun of you.
I'm not sure if she was...
She was in denial of her own situation.
Right.
She told me not to sell myself short, but that is what she always does.
Well, I guess she was mocking me.
It may be the opposite.
-Opposite? -Right.
She sleeps around probably because she's lonely.
She must be familiar with that empty feeling inside.
-Empty feeling? -Right.
Perhaps that girl was jealous of you.
Don't worry about it too much.
-Here. -Thank you.
Ito!
It's your fault that my life is a mess.
Right. Go ahead, tell him!
Who dumps someone on their birthday?
-Don't spill it. -You're so cruel!
He's a clueless jerk!
He's the worst piece of trash!
I will dump him if he ever comes back to me!
You are beautiful.
What?
Only when you don't talk.
What are you talking about?
I'm sorry.
I'm scared.
How about now?
You really are adorable.
I...
I couldn't take my eyes off you during the seminar.
You must have thought of doing dirty stuff to me.
Of course.
You're a terrible person.
You were so cute that I couldn't help imagining those things.
Be more confident in yourself.
Okay?
Kuzuken.
What?
I feel more confident now.
Thank you.
Right?
I'm glad I chose you.
-I think... -What?
I think I'm ready now.
It will still be fun if we just make out all night.
Let's keep doing this and see if we can achieve the goal by the morning.
Okay.
Do you want to take a bath?
-Sure. -Okay.
I was relieved.
He made me feel like a woman.
He helped you regain your confidence.
Yes.
She despises her friend for sleeping around.
Is she really going to sleep with Kuzuken instead of Ito?
Zinbo!
Should I put some bath salts in the water?
Zinbo, should I put... Sorry. Are you calling someone?
Hello. Is this Zinbo?
Ito? It's me.
What is it? Are you drunk?
Where do you think I am now?
What? I don't know.
I'm at Hotel New Otani with Kuzuken.
Weren't you in love with me?
You persistently told me that you had feelings for me.
I don't care about you anymore.
I see.
In that case, I'll tell you the truth.
What?
I am going out with a married woman now.
She is a mother of my former student.
I knew I shouldn't, but she wouldn't give up on me.
She is completely in love with me.
Is that so?
I wish you the best.
What did Ito say?
He is dating a married woman.
What?
She is a mother of a student who used to attend his cram school.
That is a complete lie!
I'm sure he was just bluffing.
Forget about what he said.
I bet he was telling a lie.
How do you know that he was lying?
If I were that married woman, I would not choose to date Ito.
I would go out with someone who is more serious and more understanding.
I would go out with someone more mature.
He is mature.
What makes you think so? I'm sure he is a virgin.
Are you talking about Ito?
-No way. -He definitely is.
The fact that he didn't want to be with a virgin
proves that he is not experienced himself.
The bath is almost ready.
Let's go!
Come on.
Zinbo.
Sorry. What is it?
Are you still thinking about him?
Not really.
That's enough.
Just forget about him.
Ignore it.
But...
Hello? Ito?
Were you telling me the truth? Are you really at the hotel with Kuzumi?
Yes, I am.
Tell me the room number. I'm coming for you.
What?
What's the room number?
The burdensome virgin is caught in a love triangle.
You didn't tell him the number, did you?
Good work! The burdensome virgin never lets me down.
Ito is coming now.
What? Why is he coming here? I don't understand.
Are you that excited?
You don't need to get dressed.
I should because Ito is on his way!
He's not coming.
Do you want him to come that badly?
Why him?
Did you already forget
that he was the one who broke your heart?
It was my fault. Things didn't work out with Ito
because I was a burden to him.
So he is not the only one to be blamed for dumping me.
The second he said he's coming over, you turned into a different person.
That's not true.
Listen.
Did you forget why you are here today?
Zinbo,
you're here to become a different person, right?
That's why you wanted to lose your virginity.
Listen...
Am I not good enough for you?
What?
I...
Tamura?
I'm working on a really interesting scene.
Kuzuken and Miki Zinbo turned out to be acquaintances.
Moreover, she decided to lose her virginity to Kuzuken.
Right now, Ito has rushed to the hotel.
All four women were talking about the same Ito.
What?
I found out who Ito is.
What? How did you find that out?
Seijiro Ito.
He is a student in your drama writing class.
Describe a character's feelings toward an encounter.
That is too convenient.
I'd lose all interest in that kind of drama.
That has happened to me before.
You must be kidding.
I randomly bumped into a girl I liked the other day.
I must be the lucky one.
Don't you think so, Ms. Yazaki?
Him?
ALL CHARACTERS AND ORGANIZATIONS ARE FICTITIOUS.
NEXT EPISODE
You dumped me.
I never said I wanted to break up with you.
You've gone too far!
You said you couldn't date a virgin. I didn't care whom I lost it to.
Ito wrote about another woman in his proposal.
You made me write this much. Are you telling me to quit?
