New System: Start!
Okay, club's starting!
New System: Start!
Why are you leading things?
You barely managed to escape being shut down because of me.
It was your fault we were nearly shut down in the first place!
Don't call me "you".
Call me Ai, Pitiful Chihuahua.
That's Chiwa, written with "thousand" and "calm"!
Call me Chiwa, Chiwa, Chiwa, Chiwa, Chiwa!
You're a Love Cloth!
A Love Cloth?
Well, you're a Thousand Japan!
Japan?!
Chihuahua, don't yell at Master so much.
I'm sure she'll guide us to being even more popular.
You seem to have great potential, Akishino-san.
I'd like you to call me Hime.
Got it, Hime-chan.
I'll guide you to being a pure and proper maiden.
I'm so happy, Master!
Pet, pet.
What the hell?
I agree.
I believe that Fuyuumi-san will be an excellent coach.
I mean, she does have a rich and handsome boyfriend, after all.
That's right!
I have far more feminine appeal and experience with love than any of you.
Then, tell us right now how you should tell a guy you like him!
Don't look at me.
I want to know too.
I want to know how to convey my feelings.
I told you not to look at me.
No! No!
That's not how it works!
You don't ask a guy out.
You have to make the guy ask you out!
Oh!
All right then, Eita-kun,
how about you ask Fuyuumi-san out right now?
What?
We'll have Fuyuumi-san show us how one should properly react when being asked out.
K-Kidou-kun's going to?
You can't be serious!
I should have a say in who's going to do it!
B-But... I guess I just have to do it since I'm the coach.
I'll reluctantly do it.
Reluctantly, got it? Re-luc-tant-ly.
Now do it, Kidou-kun!
isse no!
いっせ一の！
Ready, set!

The truth is, I've liked you this whole time.
#10 Summer Training Camp Meetings are a Battlefield
I know.
I love you.
I want to go out with you.
Sorry, but I've never thought of you as a man.
Let's stay friends.
Fine.
I give up.
You can't give up!
Huh?
You must have more feelings for me and that love needs to explode!
What?
If you give up, your chance for love will be over.
But at this rate, aren't I just going to get turned down?
Of course.
I'm not going to just fall into your arms that easily.
What a pain in the ass.
I guess we really should be using this.
What's that?
It's the diary that my first love left behind.
Secrets on how to be popular with the opposite sex are written within.
So it's like, "how to be popular" notes?
Sounds fun.
Try some of the "100% Pure Awesome from Concentrate" pick-up lines.
You've got to be kidding me!
You do it, you freaking bitch!
Fuyuumi-san, I have a correction to what I just said.
You see, this is Eita-kun's-
I'll do it!
I'll do it, Masuzu-san!
W-What is it?
I'm sorry, but you're going to fall for me.
Hmph.
Trying to seduce me by force won't get you anywhere.
Did you know that I'm so popular, I'm a social phenomenon?
You idiot!
You're not making any sense.
Watch yourself.
My kiss has been called the Wind Slash.
T-That can't be true.
It can't be.
No way.
Now!
Wind Slash! Wind Slash! Wind Slash!
Wind Slash!
Hane High!
Fight! Fight! Fight!
Hane High!
T-That didn't work?
If... If you're so insistent...
I'll go out with you!
Yes!
So Takkun and I are a couple now!
Ai-chan wins!
How does that even work?
I'm not really following here.
Master, are you betraying us?
Well, are you?
Well, Ai-chan wuvs Takkun.
We're going to get married after we graduate.
I want three kids.
H-Hey, calm down, A-chan.
Pull yourself together.
You're a hall monitor, remember?
Ahem.
Anyway, I'm done pretending to be seduced.
"Pretending"?
So you're saying you weren't actually seduced just then?
Of course not.
Why would I fall for...
...someone like Kidou-kun?
Eita-kun, do that again.
Wind Slash!
I wuv Takkun!
Get away from him!
Geez!
What are you doing?
That was dangerous!
You were clinging to Ei-kun!
I can't cling to him?
Do I need your permission?
That's right!
I'm his childhood friend.
Pain, pain, fly away.
I'm his childhood friend too.
Huh?
The first time I met Kidou-kun was during our last year of kindergarten in Star class.
Calling each other Takkun and A-chan was a sign of how close we were.
Back in kindergarten...
That's ten years ago.
You met him nine years ago, didn't you?
Hey, Ei-kun...
Is she telling the truth?
Why didn't you say anything?
I had forgotten about it.
I hadn't remembered anything till now.
You've known her longer than me?
You met her first?
Yeah.
But...
I was the first one to meet Eita.
Past lives come before elementary school and kindergarten.
As his previous girlfriend, I came way before any of you.
Past life?
Previous girlfriend?
What are you talking about?
Eita and I were lovers in a past life.
So I'm his former girlfriend.
What?!
It seems we've gotten way off track,
so let's get back to the main issue.
Now that Fuyuumi Ai-san has joined, the Club for Young Maidens to Recreate Themselves has five members.
We've risen in status from a gathering to an official club.
Now that we're officially the Maiden Club,
why don't we talk about what we're planning to do this summer?
Summer Training Camp
That sounds good.
Summer Training Camp
Where should we go?
The beach?
The mountains?
I already have summer classes...
You have time off starting tomorrow, right?
I want to go to the beach.
I've never been before,
so I want to go to the beach.
You've never been to the beach before?
In my current life, my family runs a bed and breakfast.
Summer's a very busy period.
So they won't take me.
Then, this trip will be her maiden voyage.
That's not what that means.
We'll need swimsuits if we're going to the beach.
Swimsuits?
What type?
You wanna go get some tomorrow?
I'll help you pick one out.
I'm going to the bathroom.
If Master is going, I'll go too.
Okay, we'll do that, then.
I wonder what I should get.
Jealous Chihuahua...
Ei-kun...
What's wrong?
You seem down.
I-It's nothing.
It's nothing!
Absolutely nothing!
You know it doesn't matter which childhood friend came first, right?
I can't fool you, Ei-kun.
How did you know?
We've been together for so long.
The longest.
Ei-kun! Ei-kun! Ei-kun!
Hey, get off me!
This is embarrassing!
But I've known you the longest too!
Come on, get off.
Oh yeah, are you free tomorrow?
What for?
Let's go buy swimsuits too.
Don't you have one?
The one you bought in the summer of sixth grade.
I've grown since then.
Let's go.
Right...
T-Then, let's go to that shopping mall with the huge bookshop.
I'm sure they'll have lots of reference books you can look at.
Fine, I'll go.
Yay!
Ei-kun, my love!
I love you!
Why not go?
Huh?
A-Are you sure?
You're okay with me shopping with Chiwa?
Why not go?
She was so upset about the fireworks, though...
Okay, I'll go.
Have fun.
So where are you going shopping?
The shopping mall in front of the station.
You mean that flashy place...
Seems like a place where love-on-the-brains would gather.
How disgusting.
Are you an old woman or something?
I'm surprised you went along with a trip to the beach.
Huh? Why?
I mean, you can't swim.
I can.
I just couldn't help it, what with everything Akishino-san said...
You do have a nice side.
Hey, Eita...
You've got childhood friends all around you.
Harusaki Chiwa,
Fuyuumi Ai,
and your lover from your previous life,
Akishino-san, are all childhood friends, right?
Past lives don't count.
No matter how well I pretend to be your girlfriend,
I can't do anything about time.
Ei-kun, sorry I'm late.
Did you wait long?
Oh, about five minutes, I guess?
You're supposed to say, "I only just got here too," you know.
Why?
That's what you're supposed to do.
And why did we have to meet here?
We live next to each other.
This way...
...it feels more like a d-date.
N-Nothing!
Let's go.
Eita-kun!
Sorry I'm late.
Did you wait long?
Why?
Come on, Eita-kun.
You're supposed to say, "I only just got here too," you know.
Why?!
Because I'm your girlfriend.
Isn't it obvious?
But you told me yesterday that I could go...
I did, but I didn't say I wouldn't go.
Hey, Natsukawa, what are you doing here?
Oh, you were here?
You're so small, I didn't notice.
Y-You Summer River!
Is something the matter, Thousand Japan-san?
You two, we're in public...
Hey, Master...
I want to go over there too...
Takkun, you adulterer!
Hey, Ei-kun, what do you think about this one?
Isn't it cute?
Eita-kun, do you like this colour?
This design is good, isn't it?
This colour looks nice and refined, doesn't it?
But this one is better!
No, this one is-
But this one is-
Please! This one is-
Just shut up already!
You're bugging the other customers!
Well, Natsukawa is...
I'll look at them in order, so do rock-paper-scissors.
Fine.
Guess I have no choice.
Okay?
Starting with "First comes rock."
Fine...
Let's go.
First comes rock... Rock, paper...
Rock!
Paper!
Hey, Ei-kun...
Let's do that again.
Okay...
Rock, paper...
Head!
Natsukawa, you're good at rock-paper-scissors.
Harusaki-san, you're pretty good yourself.
Fine...
I'll look at both your choices together.
So hurry up and change.
H-Hime?
Eita, hold me.
Choose my swimsuit too.
W-Wait, wait, wait.
What's up with these firm peaches?
They're Hime's, right?
Were they really this large?
Wait, calm down.
Hold her.
Wait, no. Calm down.
Eita...
I-If I hold you, I won't be able to see your swimsuit,
so pick one.
Fine, then hold me.
Then There's no reason for us to be in here, is there!
Show me your swimsuit.
Okay.
W-What do you think?
Does it look weird?
No, it looks great.
Really?
I wouldn't lie.
Okay, then I'll buy this.
Hey, wait! Wait!
Wait until I get out!
Ei-kun!
Are you there?
Don't run away.
I know...
Huh?
C-Could it be the person in here is...
Bingo!
A-chan?
You're so mean, Takkun!
You're spending time with other women in secret!
What if someone just heard you say that?
Just to let you know, you're guilty of cheating.
So if we have to settle this matter, Ai-chan will win the lawsuit!
Fine, I'll pick yours too.
Really?
Then, come here!
W-Wait, we're looking at swimsuits, right?
Watch this.
I'm going to dazzle Ei-kun!
W-Well, that might be asking too much,
but at least I can show him I've grown...
So how do I look, Ei-kun?
So how do I look, Eita-kun?
Huh?
Do I look beautiful?
Good enough to marry me?
What are you doing?
Would a white kimono have been better?
Not that...
Why am I picking out your wedding dress?
You're right.
I should meet your parents first.
Ai-chan always rushes things.
Tee-hee.
Please... Please let's just have a normal conversation.
Please?
Ei-kun!
Eita-kun!
I don't believe you!
Why did you run off?
You're a failure of a boyfriend since you didn't wait for me to finish shopping.
Look, I bought the swimsuit.
What?!
S-School Rules: Section 3, Article 2!
You're supposed to wear your uniform when you go out!
Wearing casual clothes, what are you thinking?
The one in a wedding dress shouldn't be telling us that!
Spring, summer, fall.
In the same order as the seasons,
I'll spend twenty minutes with each of you.
That's good enough, right?
Fine.
H-Hey, Kidou-kun?
What about winter?
Will there be a winter?
No way.
Besides, you have Michel, Ai!
How about you put your swimsuit on all by your self and send him a pic?
I would like you to watch over us since we love each other.
O-Okay, well, then I'll do that.
I made a huge mistake!
Ai-chan, mistake.
All right, here we go.
Takkun...
What are you crying about?
The whole Michel thing is your own fault.
I-I know that...
This summer's guaranteed super-popular bikinis!
Here.

I'll tell on you to Michel!

Sometimes, it's important to get a second opinion when you're trying to become perfectly popular.
That's our master!
You never miss an opportunity to do research.
The fish were cute.
The yellow ones and the blue ones...
What's wrong?
You tired?
The fools with love on the brain caught me in their trap.
Though, why did you come after what you said last night?
You really are Pitiful Chihuahua.
I don't want to hear that from you!
I'm the only one.
Huh?
Because I'm the only one who doesn't have any memories with you.
Then we just have to make some.
We'll make a lot of them going forward.
Rather brazen of you.
You're just supposed to be my "fake".

Oh my.
It'll be a bit of a stretch on my allowance alone...
We can't go to the beach?

Welcome back.
Oh, I'm back.
