- Let's hurry! This is something to see!

- What is it?

- This way, this way!

- What's going on?

Stop it, Takase!

You're the ones that didn't stop

when I asked you to!

All right! We were wrong!

Then why'd you do it

in the first place?

- That guy's lost it.

- Did someone call a teacher?

Hey, check this out!

Stop that, Takase!

Takase!

Konno!

Did you just order me?!

N- No, I didn't!

You did, too!

Huh?! What?!

W- Why?! Damn! Damn! D-Damn!

- Hey! Stop it!

- Enough!

- Takase!

- S-Stop...

Watch out!

Takase!

Chiaki!

Chiaki!

- Are you okay?

- Yuri!

- I heard that hit her big time!

- What year is she?

Hurry, call a teacher!

I- It wasn't my fault!

It wasn't my fault...!

- Yuri! Yuri!

- Are you okay? Yuri!

Don't cry. It's not that bad.

What if it leaves a scar?

If that happens,

I'll deal with it somehow.

Deal with it somehow?

I'll deal with it somehow.

No boys allowed.

Does it hurt?

Yeah.

- Let's see.

- No.

Come on.

Thanks.

I'm sorry, seriously!

Huh?! But, why?!

I said I'm really sorry.

Man, who takes a girl to a night game

on their first date?

I thought the three of us were going!

I was looking forward to it!

Look, I feel bad about it, all right?

Hayakawa said a night game

would be fine.

So, are you gonna go out with her?

- Of course.

- What?!

Ow!

You all right, Makoto?

- Are you serious?

- You're saying I can't?

Well, what can I say? Yuri gets

my tastes. You know what I mean?

Well, good for you!

Hey! Idiot!

Where are you throwing the ball?!

I'm home!

- Huh? Where's the rice?

- I'm making some more.

- Why?

- Sis ate it all.

Aww!

What's with that guy?

After telling me he liked me!

I almost drowned!

Huh? Huh? Hm?

What is this?

Ninety?

Makoto!

Ow! Let go!

I think we lost this one.

She's pulled one over on us,

that's for sure.

The world is full of deceit.

I guess with just the two of us,

we can only toss the ball.

Let's drag Chiaki with us tomorrow.

That's not fair to Yuri.

If I tell him that you're feeling lonely,

I bet he'd come.

But I'm not lonely.

Didn't Chiaki go with Hayakawa

because you turned him down?

I didn't turn him down!

Really?

What's that supposed to mean?!

Oh, boy...

What about you?

Why don't you get a girlfriend?

If I got a girlfriend...

...then you'd end up alone.

I thought you fancied Kousuke.

Isn't it always Kousuke that helps you

when you're having problems?

Kousuke's always there for anyone.

Why don't you go out with him?

- Why would you suggest that?

- Like I said before...

...if it doesn't work out,

you can always go back to what it was.

I would never do that.

Why not?

Toying with people's feelings...

Can't do such a terrible thing?

Huh?

Since you've been able to

go back into the past...

...you haven't held back with your games.

What? Is that how you see it?

I suppose.

She's a witch.

Yup, she's definitely "Auntie Witch".

Hey, this painting...

Recognize it?

Yeah. It's the one

you've been restoring.

It's a strange painting.

The longer you look at it, the more

relaxed and comforted you feel.

Yeah.

We don't know who the painter is...

...and we still don't really know

whether it has any artistic merit.

But there's one thing I did learn

while working on its restoration.

This work was painted...

...during a historical period of

famine and war many centuries ago.

What?

I wonder how someone was able

to paint such a thing...

...while it seemed

the world was ending.

What're you going to do, Konno?

You're the only one that hasn't

submitted a chosen academic track.

Konno...

Hm?

Konno...

- Konno!

- Yes!

Don't get cocky because

you did well on the...

...practice college entrance exam.

Yes, sir!

That's weird...

I swear it said "90" last time.

I know. Why not ask her ourselves?

Oh, but...

- What?

- W-Wait!

W- Whoa! What's this about?!

Miss Konno! We are members

of the Volunteer Club!

And there's something

we'd like to ask you directly!

I- It's nothing!

- We've noticed lately that...

- H-Hang on...

- You're always with Kousuke!

- W-Wait!

- I guess...

- Stop this!

Does this mean that

you're going out with him?!

Are you going out with him?

Are you going out with him?!

I was still in junior high

at the time...

...but apparently, the Volunteer

Club of Kuranose Senior High...

...once visited the old age home

that my grandmother was at.

My grandmother was particularly

impressed with one of the...

...students and she had

spoken to me about him many times.

She would go on about what a kind

and gentle boy he was.

She said it over and over.

Since she had talked so

much about him...

...I kind of began

to fall in love with him...

...even though I'd never even met him.

- That's a cute story.

I found out when

I got into senior high...

...that the student was

Kousuke Tsuda.

Wow, things like that really happen.

But as you can see,

this girl is a total shrinking violet.

We worked so hard

to pump her up.

And we finally got her

to declare her feelings to him.

Oh, the other day...

But according to Kousuke...

Huh? Hm?

"I already have a girl that

I've given my heart to!"

"So I'm sorry. I can't go out with you!"

Um, but... wait...

- But that's not how it went.

- Huh?

"How could an idiot like that get

a higher mark than me?"

"I can't be slacking off anymore, so... "

And so he apologized.

Could that "idiot"

he's referring to, be me?

- And that's when Kousuke...

- Huh?!

...said he wasn't going out

with you!

But what has been

going on lately?!

Something just doesn't seem right!

Please explain properly!

H- Hang on a minute!

O- Okay! All right!

Ahem! I'll deal with this somehow.

Somehow?

What do you mean, somehow?

I'll deal with it somehow!

Ow!

- What the...?!

- What happened?

Um... Well...

Kaho!

Yeah.

Um...

Kousuke!

Huh?

What? Didn't you just head off

to the baseball field?!

Never mind that!

This girl's grandmother says she's

so grateful that you came around...

...and took care of her at

the old age home.

I'm impressed, Kousuke!

And, you see...

H- How do you know my grandmother?!

How? Um, I met

her at the bowling alley...

My grandmother's bedridden!

Oh! That's not it...!

Let me know when you're

done talking.

Uh, w-wait, Kousuke!

What the...?!

One more time!

Ow!

Um... Well...

Kousuke!

Huh?

Here we go...

- What? Didn't you just head off...?!

- Hold it!

You're being very cowardly about this!

Don't sulk about

me getting a better mark!

This has nothing to do with that!

What's up with you, showing up

out of nowhere and bragging?!

And this has nothing to do

with what?!

I'm saying that my test score

should have nothing to do with...

...Kaho being in love with you!

- Th-That's not true!

- What?!

That's not true!

- W-Wait! Kaho!

- Kaho!

- She says it's not true.

- Uh! Hang on, Kousuke!

What the...?!

I've got to take

a more basic approach to this.

Why all the ruckus so early

in the morning, sis?

I went back too far!
