Well, I suppose that's true

I'm sure

Say, what happened to Shoko-chan?

I haven't seen her lately

Oh, well, maybe I'll see you again sometime

When shall I see you?

When shall I see you again?

When... shall we?

Let's see, your name is... Yuta?

Uh, yes

Mind telling me your age and occupation?

Um, I'm 19 years old, a student

Okay, and what's troubling you?

Well, I'm in love with someone

Right, perfectly normal

Yes, and, uh...

She happens to be older than me

I'd like to go to a lot of

different places with her,

but I'm kind of having trouble

You ask her out but she says no?

No, it's just that I know I'd have fun,

but I'm not sure if she'd have fun with me

So you're scared

I guess, yes

"Today around 5 o'clock

PM, there was an..."

Around 5 o'clock PM...

Chiharu, something wrong?

Huh? Why?

You seemed off after that call-in

What? Really?

I guess I was lost in thought or something

Hey, hey, hey-

You know, "Around 5 o'clock PM"

is hard for me to pronounce

It's your northeastern tongue

Making fun of me?

No, no

Jingle ending

Today around 5 o'clock PM...

Sorry to keep you. Let's go eat

okay

What should we eat?

Oh... l don't care

Hey, are you upset?

No, let's just go

Where should we go?

- What?

- Dinner

Today around 5 o'clock PM,

there was an accident at Yoyogi Station

Two men jumped on the tracks to

save a woman who fell from the platform

They were 26 year-old Korean

exchange student Park Seung-jun

and 35 year-old photographer

Yonosuke Yokomichi

The three were transported to a hospital,

but were later pronounced dead

Yonosuke-san!

Yonosuke-san!

Yonosuke-san!

It was delightful!

I've never seen you so active

Was I active?

Yes, and aggressive, too

Man, I didn't think you'd come

I heard about it from Kato-san

You could've asked me directly

Well, if you recall, we

hadn't talked in a while,

and we had embraced a

number of times before that

It just felt terribly awkward

Say, Yonosuke-san

Do you have time afterwards?

Why?

Perhaps we could eat together again

Actually, right after this,

I'm supposed to help my friend move

Ah, I see

Well, I guess that can't be helped

But how about next Sunday?

Oh, certainly!

Next Sunday!

So you're dating this Shoko?

Well, that's the thing

What's the thing?

- Oh, I got a job.

- Doing What?

A normal job, real estate broker

Isn't that stuff shady?

No no, it's a legit company

Well, there's only six

employees right now, but...

Seems like it's doing well

Hey, thanks for the money

I was able to save face with Yui's mom

Yui's stomach is this big now

That stuff really is mystical

What is this heavy box?

Dirty magazines?

Don't slack off, man

Yonosuke

I appreciate it

I'm gonna...

give it my best

For the sake of the baby

that's about to be born,

I'll give it my all

You were...

the only one I could ask for help

I'm gonna try...

to make this work with Yui

Hey, let's get on Neruton

What?

The dating show on TV, man

We're gonna audition for it.

Right, Kiyoshi-san?

Yonosuke, I swear I'm getting on Neruton

That's nice

You've got time, right?

No, I'm actually going on a date

Save it for another day

I can't

From now on, I decided I'm gonna be...

more serious about this

About... what?

About Shoko-chan, of course

Good day to you

Good day to you

it's a fine, splendid house

you've got here, sir

He's waiting, hurry

Apologies for the wait

Shoko

So, you're a student?

Yes, sir

How long have you been dating?

Oh, well...

Father, I've already explained this to you

It's not serious or anything

We're still students, and...

Students or not, you're still man and woman

What're you studying?

For now, uh... business administration

Administration?

Yes, well, I'm still an amateur

Does it look promising?

Promising? Uh, graduating?

Huh?

Graduating?

Father, you don't have to

interrogate him like this

You chose to date a guy with no promise?

Of course he has promise

He has more promise than

anyone I've ever met

Well, that's that, then

Since you're here, make yourself at home

Pardon me

Um...

Sorry about this He insisted

on dragging you here

No, it's... fine

Actually,

I was hoping to ask you this

when we're alone, but...

Yes?

So... we're, uh...

we're... dating... right?

Well, um...

from your standpoint...

how exactly do you feel about me?

Oh, well... l...

I, uh...

I must say...

I like you

Me, too

I like you as well

Oh, so... we're in agreement that

we're... dating, yes?

Yes

Shoko-chan

Shoko-chan

Can you come out of the curtain?

Please

Please

Um, what?

Please go somewhere

I'm so shy right now

- Good day to you

- Good day to you

Oh, that's a wonderful hat

Thank you

- Come in.

- Thank You

Oh my, look at all this!

Bought them all at the supermarket

Here, a cake

Wow, thanks!

I'm impressed, Yonosuke-san

I tried

On your own?

I'll take that

Thank you

One for me

Oh, looks good

- Here.

- Oh, cool!

'Will the noise be okay?

The neighbor's rarely home

Thank goodness

And... Merry Christmas!

And a happy new year!

Look, it fell in!

Wow, cool!

Who's that?

It's Oscar Never heard of him?

Nope

And that one?

That's Little Pierre. He gets shot to death

And that one?

That's Charlotte

She kills herself

Huh, what's the story?

Oh, you've never read it?

You really must

Shoko-chan, come, look!

Yes?

Oh, my!

Shoko-chan

Wow, look! It's snowing!

Wow!

It's beautiful!

Shoko-chan, look at all this snow!

Indeed!

One, two, and...

This is amazing!

There's so much snow!

And we didn't even notice!

This is amazing!

When did this happen?

Maybe when I was drawing

Amazing

Say, you're going home

the day after tomorrow, yes?

Yeah, I need to visit Grandma's grave

I see... Well, I'm going skiing

I guess I won't see you for a while

Hey, what's wrong?

Okay, well... excuse, uh...

Excuse me

Shoko-chan

Yes?

Sorry, just saying your name

Oh my goodness, Yonosuke-san!

- Shoko-chan

- Yes?

One more time

Ahem, pardon me

Oh my goodness, I'm so shy!

Are your feet okay?

Shoko-chan

Ah, Yonosuke-san. Happy new year to you

Oh, happy new year

What happened? You okay?

Yes, I'm quite alright.

Just tripped while skiing

Why didn't you tell me?

I'm sorry, I didn't want to worry you

Of course I'll worry

Worrying about each other

is our job, so let me

okay

lf l ever get hurt, you'll

be the first to know

From now on I'll say your name without san

Is that okay?

Sure, that's fine

Great

Well...

Yonosuke

Sh... Shoko

Yes

Yonosuke

Sh... Shoko

Yes

Yonosuke

Shoko

Yes!

Yonosuke

Shoko

Yonosuke

I'm home

Oh, you're home

Good to be back

How was it?

Exhausting

There's a letter here for you

That name, Yokomichi...

It sounds vaguely familiar

The one I was dating in college, remember?

- Yonosuke-san, right?

- That cheerful young man

This is from his mother

I got nostalgic the other

day and called his home

Is he doing well?

Yes

You must be exhausted.

I'll pour you some tea
