Itsuki returned to America.
Don't see other guys. Stay with me.
For you, Iori is the only one.
You need her.
This is an order.
Win over Iori soon.
Even as the new school year starts...
those words spin around my mind.
Bye bye!
It didn't even feel like I had become a third year student.
Bye bye!
Since my class didn't change...
I was surrounded by the same faces.
Of course, one of those was very familiar.
Good luck this year as well.
Seto. Yoshizuki.
Create another exciting performance!
Why is it us again?
What about the lots?
Your Helping Hands performance was hilarious.
I expect big things this year.
You can't be serious.
If anyone has any funnier ideas...
feel free to tell them.
Why are we stuck together again?
My head is going to explode.
Why are you saying that?
Itsuki went to America knowing how you felt.
If you don't be honest with yourself, it will all be a waste.
I told you.
I already gave up on Iori once.
You just put that thought in your head.
No. I really did love Itsuki.
But now I am feeling this. I don't understand.
Itsuki doesn't like to see you...
looking so frustrated.
Thank you.
I know you liked Itsuki too, Teratani.
Was it 69?
-It's spring. -How will it turn out?
Look up.
Beautiful flowers are in bloom.
Gross. He's peeking at us.
You are seriously the worst. What are you wearing?
-No! -What are you wearing?
I have a flower print.
I withdrawal my previous statement.
What do you want to do this year?
I don't know.
I'm acting indifferent again.
Nothing has changed in an entire year.
Right.
-That hurts! -What?
Itsuki taught me this method for motivating you.
She tricked you!
How is that motivating?
That hurts.
Itsuki really does know you well.
I told you, Yoshizuki.
You are more awake now.
Damn you, Itsuki.
She is pushing me closer to her.
Sorry.
Am I interrupting something?
What do you want?
We'll help you this year.
Clear your Golden Week schedule.
Why don't you come stay at my place to brainstorm ideas?
Stay over?
Right?
"I"s"
"Episode Six -No Control"
Here we are.
I didn't know Nami was so rich.
Amazing.
I was waiting for you.
What is with this place?
My parents are on a trip. Make yourselves at home.
Come along!
Yay!
-Wait! -Wait for me!
Hey!
Awesome!
I want to go there so bad.
It looks so cool.
I know, right?
Amazing.
-So cute. -Right?
-Nami. -What?
What about the performance?
We'll work on that later. Help with the food.
You beat me.
-That is cute. -I know, right?
After the hot springs...
we can eat soba.
What are you doing?
Idiot!
I figured this would happen.
They're just here to hang out.
We can work after we eat.
Make sure the Hayashi Rice is really yummy.
Seto.
Help me.
I don't know about this.
Could you try this?
This is an indirect kiss.
Well?
It's good.
Really? I'm so glad.
I can't lie to myself anymore.
I really do like you.
-King game! -Yes!
I thought we were going to work after eating.
Don't worry.
I already have plenty of ideas.
-Pull one. -Okay!
Am I the King?
I see.
Don't look.
Sit down.
We play the King Game.
Number five must kiss the King!
I am number five.
Seto!
Why are you blushing all of a sudden?
Are you thinking of something dirty?
Of course not!
I am King!
-Nice! -Bring it!
What should I do?
This is really going to reveal my character.
Okay. Then number two.
Is that Iori?
What is with that knowing look?
Do they want some dirty order?
Number two...
has to do ten pushups!
Pushups?
I am number two.
Do it!
-Come on! -Let's see!
Pushups!
Pushups! Pushups! Pushups!
Eight! Nine!
Ten!
All done!
-Thank goodness. -That was actually pretty hot.
Quit that.
I see, Seto.
That's what you wanted.
-What are you saying? -Gross.
-Seto is the worst. -The worst.
That isn't it!
Who is the King?
Let's go!
I'm the King!
Okay, Teratani.
Let's see your perverted nature clear my name!
Number five needs to chug some cola.
Why can't he read the atmosphere?
He's the King of the Perverts!
This is too peaceful.
No. Peace is for the best.
Only I expected more.
Hey.
The real show starts now.
Try not to get a nosebleed.
What are you saying?
This party will not take a more sexual turn.
Is that what you think?
What?
This is gross!
That feels good.
-That's too much! -What is this?
-Quit it! -This is weird!
-That feels good. -This is gross!
I am King!
Well... Number five...
will rub number two's chest!
Who is number two?
Who?
It's me.
-Oh! -Who? Who is number five?
I am number five.
Thank goodness it's Nami.
This game eventually does go into this direction.
What?
Alright!
Iori. Come over here.
You are relieved that I am a woman, right?
I actually love boobs!
Here I come!
Starting tame was a strategy.
We'll slowly desensitise them to this and then just wait.
Quit it!
Even for a joke, Yoshizuki wouldn't usually allow that.
You're right.
I might...
be sitting where Nami is next.
It might be you too.
I got you!
Iori's chest is amazing!
Enough!
-Iori! -What?
This might go a lot further than a kiss.
Quit it!
You're right.
Number one will remove...
a piece of clothing from number three!
Me again?
-Who is number one? -Me!
-Morisaki? Go! -Alright!
Leave this to me.
Listen. Our goal is to get all the girls naked.
That is going too far.
Don't order them to take it all off in one go.
Let's make it slow.
Before they realise it, they'll already be nude.
Thinking about it...
why don't these girls think this situation is strange?
-Here I go. -Do it.
-Here I go! -Do it.
Here I go!
The King Game should be feared.
Let's go!
-Okay! -Yes!
I am King! Take off your panties!
I thought you were going to move slowly?
Number four will take off number two's underwear!
I am number two!
I'm so glad it's not Iori.
Who is number four?
It's me.
I would rather it be you than those two.
Why are you agreeing to this?
This is really bad.
Let's do it over there.
How do we do this?
I don't know. Do whatever you want.
Whatever I want?
Take it off. Take it off. Take it off.
Shut up!
I guess I don't have a choice.
It's okay.
Sorry! I can't do it!
What?
It's an order by the King!
Do you think you can do that in this game?
As punishment, I'm taking yours!
What are you doing?
Take them off!
I've got the underpants!
-Gross! -Seriously!
They stink!
Enough of this.
Let's go to bed and start working tomorrow morning.
What are you saying? We just got started.
Idiot. We gathered here to decide on a performance.
Right, Yoshizuki?
What if we do one last round?
What?
Okay! One last round!
Yay!
-Great. -Let's do this.
Come on!
Thank you.
You were thinking of the girls.
But everyone seems to be having fun.
I...
Don't worry. I won't tell Itsuki about this.
That isn't it. I was worried about you.
Who is the King?
-Okay. -Okay!
Okay.
I am the King!
I'll give you a really tough one for the last round.
You cannot refuse this.
Say it!
The two I choose...
must embrace and kiss in bed.
If you want, you can even go all the way.
You fool.
What if Iori is chosen?
What numbers should I choose?
Numbers one and three!
-Oh. -Oh.
Alright.
Isn't it perfect that the last winners are our two leaders?
Kiss. Kiss. Kiss. Kiss. Kiss. Kiss.
Wake up.
Do you think we will do this for a game?
Don't try to refuse again. What sort of man are you?
-Seriously. -Hurry up, Iori.
Okay.
Here.
What will you do?
Nice.
Quickly face one another.
Seriously?
This is bad. I can't even look at her.
This is closer than we were on the school trip.
It is so bright in here.
My unruly boy has woken up!
I only have a towel on.
What's this?
So gross, Seto.
It's just a wrinkle.
Right. Seto isn't like that.
I am like that.
You don't understand men, Iori.
Come on. Embrace each other.
Do we really need to do this?
I can't. This is going too far.
Seto.
Lift your head.
What?
You are a smart girl, Iori.
Iori? You are making yourself do this, right?
Her scent...
is making my skin so warm.
My heart is going to explode.
Damn. I've reached my limit.
I'm sorry, Iori.
I can't stop.
-What's that? -Power outage?
I'll get flashlights.
What is this?
-Here. -Find the breaker.
Good luck.
-Nami. -Wait a minute.
Where is it?
Thank goodness.
I didn't have to cause Iori any distress.
I cannot believe that really happened.
But I remember that soft sensation.
Did I really kiss Iori?
Even if it was just for the game.
Wait. There was a power outage. The game was over.
Then that means...
that Iori actually likes me?
Wake up! It is a lovely morning!
Wake up! Wake up!
-Wake up! -Shut up.
Come on!
-Shut up. -Wake up!
Wake up.
Wake up, girls.
Wake up.
Wake up!
Wait!
Why are you ignoring me?
I'm sorry that I did that last night.
You didn't like it, did you?
What do you mean?
I was really happy you did that.
After all...
I like you.
Seto.
Yoshizuki!
-Good morning. -Good morning.
One proposal is a haunted house.
Haunted house?
-I want to play a ghost. -So do I.
-Or another Helping Hands show. -This is clearly odd.
If we kissed, why isn't this more awkward?
Shouldn't we be blushing and unable to look at one another?
-I don't want to do that. -What about a short film?
-Yes. -I vote for that.
-Right? -I knew it.
That kiss was just my imagination.
What?
-A short film. -What?
Teratani will write the script.
I will be the cameraman and director.
Morisaki will do costumes.
Kida. Do whatever you want.
What is that? Give me a job!
Our lead actors, playing a couple...
is Seto and Yoshizuki!
Actors? We can't do that.
-Right, Yoshizuki? -Why?
Teratani. I look forward to reading your story.
I've actually already written it!
"The Love of Wanda High School"
What?
The Love of Wanda High School?
The protagonist Iota falls for his classmate Ichiko.
This pathetic boy longs for her...
from a distance.
What sort of story is this?
This is a complete retelling of my story!
Iota makes a lot of mistakes, but...
in the end...
Ichiko tells him she likes him.
Does that mean that Iori will tell me she likes me?
That might be nice.
Yoshizuki will play Iota.
Ichitaka will play Ichiko.
The genders will be reversed?
That explains the names.
That's a brilliant idea, Teratani.
This sounds like fun.
-I've never played a man before. -This is going to be great!
This is going to be really funny!
Doesn't that mean...
that I will need to reveal my feelings to her?
You didn't get to kiss yesterday because of the power outage.
So I wanted to give you a little present.
How on earth is this a present?
Put this on.
Good luck...
This has touched...
Iori's bare skin.
What am I doing?
Am I just a pervert?
Here she comes!
Isn't he perfect?
That is hilarious.
-Look at that. -So funny.
-Quit it. -Sorry for the wait.
It took time to tie the necktie.
Iori looks great too.
Seto's clothes are big.
It's so loose.
Iori is wearing my uniform.
-It's funny, right? -You look so ugly.
We'll go search for places to shoot.
Okay!
Later.
Rehearse your lines.
-I'm sorry, Seto. -What?
I like to act, so I agreed to do this.
But you didn't want to do this, right?
What?
That's not it.
I'm just not confident that I can act well.
You'll be fine. Just try.
-Really? -Of course.
Let's practise our lines.
Okay.
But...
we only interact in the last scene.
Ichiko stands here.
Let's start.
Scene 19. Ichiko makes her decision to tell Iota she likes him.
Action.
Iota.
In class...
when I saw you.
Just wait a minute.
You are showing nervousness really well.
But try to imagine...
how girls feel when they tell a boy they like him.
Okay... Go.
Iota. In class, when I saw you for this first time...
I always liked you.
That is more natural than before.
Really?
Yes. But try to give more emotion into Ichiko's line.
Think about how Ichiko feels.
Think about that feeling of liking someone.
Liking someone.
Do you like someone now?
Yes. Right in front of me.
Well think about that as you do it.
Okay. Action.
In class...
In class, when I saw you for the first time...
I always...
always...
always like liked you.
Thank you.
That is how you felt.
I also...
always...
li...
-liked... -Cut!
How original! You two were great.
I thought you would get nervous in front of the camera...
and be unable to act naturally.
What?
You really surprised me.
I didn't expect that you would be this good.
I know, right? I got nervous just watching him.
We got your scene, Seto.
Next we need to shoot the scene for Iori.
You have to be kidding me.
How is that acceptable?
He sounded too much like a man.
Iori just answered naturally, so I didn't notice.
Why did you make that mistake?
I'm sorry.
Seto just had a very overwhelming aura about him.
I got sucked into it.
I'll be more careful.
Let's start from the top!
-Yes. -Yes.
-Here. -Get ready.
She was acting.
Perhaps we will never...
You are doing so good.
get any closer than this.
Seto!
Long time no see!
Hey Itsuki.
Itsuki.
Who are you talking to?
Your boyfriend?
Go away. Don't bother me.
Sorry. Sorry.
Icchan.
Have you forgotten all about me?
Just kidding. I'm sure that you haven't.
Right.
What should I talk to you about first?
What?
Right.
It can't be.
Ta da! I'm back!
Did I surprise you?
What? What are you thinking?
I realised I wanted to be close to you.
You have to be joking.
You just do whatever you want!
What?
I had finally gotten over you.
I was finally able to like Iori fully.
Ichitaka.
Ichitaka!
What are you staring at?
Are you alright?
A girl named Yoshizuki is on the phone.
-You have a call. -Okay.
Hello?
What? Now?
I don't remember.
-Do you? -The chemistry room.
-What? -I think it's the chemistry room.
You're late, Ichitaka.
Sorry.
We don't have the first tape that we shot.
It must have been lost.
We aren't going to use that footage anyway. Just forget it.
Don't say that.
It was filled with the powerful performances of Iori and Seto.
Let's all split up and search for it.
Seto and Iori, go to the old building.
-You two check the first floor. -Okay.
Let's go.
-Fine. -I'll check the second floor.
I really don't think we need to find it.
But wouldn't be embarrassing for someone else to find it?
It's fine.
We were dressed up like that.
No one would take it seriously.
What?
I meant that those outfits would be embarrassing.
What?
It isn't here. Let's check somewhere else.
Seto.
Were you being serious?
Serious?
I head that there is a ghost back there. I wonder if that's real.
Sorry. What am I saying?
Should I go?
What? Isn't Iori really afraid of ghosts?
What does she want?
Really?
Yes.
It's here.
Let's look.
Okay.
It won't open.
What? Why?
Yoshizuki. Why did you close it?
I don't know. I was scared.
It's no good. The windows won't open either.
Can you hold my hand?
What? Uh...
Okay.
Sorry.
I brought you here.
It's okay.
I know.
It is impressive that you came this far when you are easily scared.
I know about that.
Koshinae told me.
Koshinae?
What did he say?
When I got into trouble in Shibuya...
you saved me.
Thank you.
I know that it is too late to say that now.
But I knew then that you are a good person.
I thought that even this place wouldn't be scary with you.
Why did you tell him not to tell me?
That is just too cool.
Sorry. I'm okay now.
What am I saying? So dumb.
Don't worry about it.
What I really want to say...
is that this sort of place shouldn't scare me anymore.
I know I can't cause you any more problems.
But nothing ever goes well.
I'm really bad.
Sorry.
I knew it. That wasn't a dream.
And those words.
I always liked you.
I want Iori. I want to kiss her.
No. I will not waver any more.
I will change. I will say goodbye to my indecisive self.
What?
There you are. They were here.
Teratani. You are like a detective.
-Right? -What are you two doing here?
Sorry. We got locked in here.
It's time to go home. Come on.
-What about the tape? -I found it in the library.
-Really? -Let's go.
I was the one who found it.
Do you want to go somewhere?
-What? -I can't come.
Come on.
She hit me.
I'm sorry I was such a bother to you.
I've thought of a lot since I came back.
I shouldn't have gone to meet you.
A lot happened then.
I wanted to work in plastic modelling.
My parents were against it though.
So I just felt like seeing you.
That is why I went back to Japan.
A lot happened after that.
What was strange was that even though you liked someone else...
it didn't hurt.
I want you and Iori to be happy.
That is really how I feel.
I do like you.
But that is the sort of like...
between siblings or family.
So I am not worried about what you are up to.
Don't worry about me either.
What? You've already forgotten about me?
I am totally fine with that.
I left without really talking about this.
It bothered me.
I do like this work.
I'm having a lot of fun each day.
So as long as you're happy, I can't ask for anything more.
Come on Itsuki. Time to get back to work.
I need to get back to work.
I'll send you another tape sometime.
Take care!
I have never hated myself as much as I do right now.
In order to get rid of my lingering feelings for Itsuki...
I pushed for a kiss.
Once that doesn't work...
I seek to be consoled...
by watching Itsuki's video.
I am the worst.
I am the worst man alive.
