Original subtitles

My name is Kojima Haruta. I'm forty years old.

My wife and I divorced.

It was my fault.

I lost everything I had,

and I snapped.

Now I work at a furniture store.

"If it breaks, you just need to fix it," huh?

I changed my name.

A bunch of stuff happened, and I wanted to start over.

So I changed my name.

Wow.

Keiko...

Shizuka.

This is Haruta-kun. He lives downstairs.

Um, nice to meet you.

Well, I lied,

so I guess I have to keep lying, right?

I understand.

I may be like you,

scared of falling in love, because I don't know what I'll do.

If God hates me, I can't live anymore, can I?

So keep an eye on me so I don't go out of control!

Okay?

No, no, no.

A sudden job?

A spring picnic for adults.

I have a request for everybody.

By this time tomorrow, this storeroom is going to be reborn.

It's perfect!

This is wonderful!

They canceled the shoot.

I'm really sorry.

It's fine.

It was really fun.

When it's fun,

I get scared.

I'm sorry.

Don't leave me alone.

Please.

No, um...

Good morning, Haruta-kun.

Oh, good morning.

Huh?

Haruta-kun?

What, are you leaving?

Are you quitting your job?

Are you?

No, um...

I see. I get it!

I don't know why,

but you decided you need to move forward with your life, right?

Congratulations.

But you shouldn't try to leave without saying anything!

I'd want to give you a goodbye party.

Oh, no...

I'll be wishing you luck on your new journey.

Right, Shizuka?

Hm? Yeah.

Congratulations.

Wh-Wh-What are you guys talking about?

I'm just going to work.

To work.

It's not like that.

I've got all this stuff, uh...

...to look stylish!

To look stylish.

What? Stylish?

You should've said something!

Oh, you just caught me off guard!

Anyway, that's how it is.

I'll be on my way.

It's just a fashion thing, okay?

Bye!

Bye...

Bye.

Okay.

Good morning.

What am I doing? What am I doing?

What do I do? What do I do?

Come on. Come on.

Oh, there you are. There you are.

Good, good.

No...

I can't handle carp. No carp.

No carp, no carp.

The word for carp is the same as the word for love.

Were you able to understand everything that's happened until this morning?

Are we good? Any questions?

Isn't this bad? Right?

I mean as a basic rule,

my basic rule, you understand,

has been to live like old man Geppetto,

very quietly and without getting involved with other people.

That's how I've kept myself balanced and sane.

Right?

Right?

That's not a bad thing, right?

It's not, right? Right?

But now...

This is all so sudden... So sudden!

My ex-wife is living on the second floor.

And I didn't leave her because I stopped loving her.

And now we're hiding the fact that we were married.

And now there's this mystery girl!

A very pretty, very cute, girl!

And I'm living in the same space as her!

I said...

I wouldn't love anymore, right?

I said I'd be okay living with a woman since I'm not going to fall in love—

And of course I'm not!

Of course I'm not!

I'm not okay!

I'm not okay, and that's why...

I'm telling myself that I'm not going to fall in love.

I understand. I understand.

Even if I'm in love with her,

if she's not in love with me, nothing is happening.

And she's in love with God, who lives on the second floor.

But...

Even if I'm the only one in love, I'm still in love!

I just don't know what's going on anymore.

But anyway,

this is bad.

It's gone way beyond my capacity to handle it.

At this rate, I'm scared of what might happen.

And now she says,

"Don't leave me alone!"

What am I supposed to do about that?

Especially when...

...what I want to do is be alone in the first place!

It's going to break me.

I said it. I said it right here.

That I might be lonely.

Yes, I did say that.

But it's not supposed to get this complicated, this quickly!

Right?

And so,

my idea was to just leave. Look.

But...

I...

But they stopped me before I could do it.

And then she says, "Don't leave me alone."

It's not that I don't like being there,

but if I go back...

I think I'm going to go insane again.

And so, Doctor...

Can I stay here forever?

We did all that work setting it up,

and now we have to take it down?

Even if we did the photo shoot, we'd have had to take it down anyway, right?

It feels different!

I feel kind of bad for making you guys do this.

And it's a waste.

I'm sorry.

But...

Let's clean it up!

Yeah!

Woah!

Yay!

Okay, Shin, can you start by taking that down?

Okay!

Thanks.

And, Miyako-chan, I want you to fold this up.

And, Miyako-chan, I want you to take the stuff we wound on the branch off.

And, Miyako-chan, I want you to take all this stuff off...

You're making me do all the work!

Oh, you could tell?

Anyway, wasn't Haruta-kun's outfit kind of stupid-looking?

Yeah.

Right, Miyako-chan?

Yes! Very much so!

It looked so dumb.

Okay, come on. We don't have much time.

Not now...

I don't have the energy or the stamina for this.

No way.

That woman...

Listen, can we not talk about this?

You should give up on her.

Huh?

She makes people miserable!

It may have already started! She's a demon!

What are you talking about?

That's not really the problem at hand.

Even if she doesn't make you miserable, I will.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Please leave me alone.

Oh no...

No...

No...

Jeez...

I don't know to do with all this food.

I know!

Why don't we take it to the shop?

Why don't we take the food you made to the shop?

We can have a party at the shop with everybody.

Everybody would be happy, right?

Yes, that's right!

But I don't know...

Let's do it!

I want to show off your cooking to everybody at the shop.

I want to brag about you.

We can have a party to introduce you!

Don't you think that's a good idea?

Yes, definitely!

Let's do it, Shizuka!

You want to come, too, Miyako-chan?

You live here, so you're one of us now.

Only if you've got time.

I've got as much time as you need!

Okay, let's do that then!

Yes!

Don't you have a job or something, Miyako-chan?

Huh? What?

A job.

Oh, I hadn't really thought about it.

You hadn't really thought about it? Oh my.

Well, the most expensive thing you need to pay for is a place to live.

And thanks to the grace of God,

I don't need to worry about that now. So I'm not worried.

Maybe you should be worried.

I see.

That's fine.

You can take your time looking.

Thank you!

My shop isn't hiring right now, though.

Yes, yes.

I'm actually a good driver.

Why don't I be your driver?

I like doing my own driving.

That's right.

I can't be a driver, huh?

Then can I sit in the passenger seat?

That's not a job.

You're right.

Okay, let's go.

Yes! Let's go!

What? Now?

Now?

Wait, this is supposed to be my introduction, right?

I can't go like this!

I need to put on a little more makeup, and change...

Give me a little time.

Is "a little" enough time, I wonder?

It sure is.

You're interesting, Shin.

Am I?

Yeah.

Earlier,

when Haruta-kun was saying he was going to leave...

I thought you would stop him.

I wouldn't.

If somebody decides to leave,

then that's the best thing for them to do.

Of course, it makes me sad, but I won't stop them.

I see.

Do you not like that?

I like it, actually.

Okay!

It's taking too long.

That's not "a little."

Okay.

Okay.

Ow!

Ow! Ow!

Screw you! You're broken!

What is this?

I found something that looks suspicious!

Okay.

I remember this!

It's the same kind of cellphone I first bought!

I put a photo sticker on the back.

How does this look?

Looks good.

Here, get this. Get this.

Thank you.

And then I'd like you to take a photo of me.

All right, like I'm about to leave...

Cheese!

Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on!

Okay!

Together! Together!

For my grand introduction...

Cheese!

Okay, okay.

And lastly...

I've got a bad feeling.

Like something is about to collapse and fall apart...

Crazy For Me

Episode 3

Well, I guess that's good enough.

Work hard out here today!

Good morning!

This works.

Maybe I could sleep here.

Could I?

I could.

The problem would be taking baths.

I could go to a public bath.

And then...

Are you okay, Haruta-san?

You're lying down...

You look tired, and you're mumbling to yourself...

No, I'm totally fine. Totally.

I was just, um,

seeing if it held up when you laid down on it.

I wasn't talking to myself, I was, uh...

I was, uh, saying what I was thinking about how it was holding up!

Like a station conductor.

"The train is leaving the station!"

So I'm fine. Yeah.

I understand.

I'm glad.

I have a feeling you don't.

Oh no! Haruta-san is starting to have a breakdown!

I knew it.

1 Year Anniversary Congratulations

I want Shizuka to be happy, you know!

You're not going to fall in love again?

Because you think you'll hurt someone?

Yeah.

Of course, we love each other!

Right?

I'm ready to go.

I'm ready to go.

Um... Miyako-chan?

I don't know why,

but you seem to be really ticked off.

I mean, more ticked off than usual.

Am I imagining it?

No, you are not.

You are, aren't you?

Right? Right?

Why?

I just picked up a time bomb.

A time bomb?

Yes.

It's counting down!

Tick-tock, tick-tock!

Tick-tock, tick-tock?

That's right.

That doesn't tell me anything, though.

Doesn't it?

Of course not. Did I do something wrong?

Yes!

What did I do?

I'm ready to go.

Is something wrong?

Oh, well, um...

It's nothing.

Okay, let's go.

Let's go!

Yeah, let's go!

Tick-tock... tick?

I'm not sleeping.

I'm just resting a bit.

Yesterday, I had a party with my friends!

A party?

What are you doing?!

Crazy For Me will be right back.

Stop!

The cherry blossoms are so pretty.

You're right.

Is something wrong, Shizuka?

Oh no, there's just this time bomb...

Time bomb?

The one you see in action movies?

That goes tick-tock, tick-tock?

That's the one.

They've always got the blue wire and the red wire.

Cut the right one and it stops,

but cut the wrong one and it explodes? Like that?

They sure do.

I love those.

Do you?

So do I!

I've actually decided which one I would cut.

I mean, if you ever actually find yourself in that situation,

the worst thing to do would be to hesitate,

and then it goes off before you cut either.

But you're not actually going to find yourself in that situation.

You might!

So which will you cut?

I would cut the blue wire.

Why blue?

Red is a girl's color, and blue is a boy's color, right?

If it's a choice between a man and a woman,

I think the man should be sacrificed.

Deep...

...and decisive!

You think?

Yes!

But what if you make the wrong choice and it explodes?

What do I do?

If it explodes, I die, right?

I see...

But it couldn't be helped.

It's fate.

Right?

It can't be helped.

Pink, and red, and purple, and orange, and white.

What? Sometimes it's not just red and blue?

It might not be!

But in all the movies I've seen, it's always red and blue.

So what do you do if they're all one color?

Shizuka-san...

What? What?

What would you do?

Hey, there.

Boss!

Hey, Ryou, how're you doing?

I was about to get some food.

We can all take a break.

Seriously?

Wow, that looks good!

It doesn't just look good, it is good!

I'm sorry.

Oh, hello.

Hi, I'm Kamoda Shizuka.

Miyako?!

Hey!

Don't "hey" me. What are you doing here?

You know her?

Yes, she's a friend.

A classmate from high school.

I see.

You've got a lot of friends, Miyako-chan.

Um, what are you doing with the boss?

Oh, you know...

Miyako-chan's living in my storeroom.

Right?

Yup!

Um, I...

Um, what does that mean?

Does that mean you're with the boss?

It sure does.

There's nothing going on, really.

That's not the issue.

That's why Haruta-san's been so...

Please leave Haruta-san alone.

I told you, there's nothing between us.

Can we stop talking about this?

We cannot!

You always get in my way like this!

What are you talking about?

Did you forget what happened at spring break in our second year of high school?

Sorry. What are you talking about?

You don't remember?

Not in the slightest.

Did I do something?

You did, probably.

Nothing.

If you don't remember, I won't tell you!

What? What is wrong with you?

What are you talking about?

Oh, right.

I'll introduce you to everybody.

This is Kamoda Shizuka-san.

We're going to be living together.

Nice to meet you all!

And this is Hayama Miyako-chan!

Hi there!

So what, could she be your future bride?

Oh my!

I don't know about that...

Maybe!

Right?

Nice to meet you!

Nice to meet you!

Hey, you know what?

Let's close the store for today?

All right! I'll go lock up!

Kayako-san, bring out the beer.

Okay.

There may not be enough space here.

Let's spread this out...

Okay, let's pull this sofa over.

Okay!

And let's have some beer.

Haruta-kun.

Oh, that's rare.

Maybe I'll understand who this mysterious man really is!

Oh, I'm sorry.

I fell asleep.

It's fine!

We're closing for today.

Come on out.

The boss is here.

Okay.

And his girlfriend.

And the girl who's living with you.

Why?

Why?

I don't know.

They're having a party, they say.

Why are they doing that?

Oh, Haruta-kun.

Yes?

Your phone was on the floor.

I'm sorry.

Ow!

What are you doing, Kayako-chan?

Sorry, I saw it!

You saw what?

This photo.

No! Hey! Hey!

That's her, right?

No, it's not.

It's someone else.

They look similar, but they're different.

Definitely.

They really are!

They may look a little similar, but...

I'll go check!

I knew it!

She's not going to take a photo?

What's going on, Kayako-san?

Kayako-san!

What's wrong, Haruta-kun?

No, um...

Are you okay?!

Poor thing...

What?

What is? You're creeping me out!

Well, well...

You wanna see?

You want to see, right?

Um...

Boss...

What?

Um...

Kamoda Shizuka-san and I used to be married!

I'm sorry I didn't tell you!

Aw...

I wanted to say it.

I'm really sorry.

No way.

It's true.

Look.

Mine's rarer.

1 Year Anniversary Congratulations

It's a coincidence.

But it's my fault for not telling you.

I'm the one who said we shouldn't.

It was me.

Kei- I mean, Shizuka-san isn't at fault.

What are you saying?

I'm the one who said we shouldn't say anything.

Stop that.

No, no, no.

It was me.

I was the one who said we shouldn't tell you.

Because I wanted to stay there.

I didn't want to make it hard for me to be there,

so it was for my sake.

I'm really sorry.

Stop that.

Honestly, having you try to cover for me like that...

...is actually making it worse for me.

Worse?

And I'm not covering for you.

You didn't do anything wrong.

So your relationship with the boss shouldn't change at all.

I just need to disappear.

And I'm telling you I don't want you getting involved.

I'm the one at fault,

so I'm the one who should be punished.

Why?

Why can't you understand other people's feelings?

I don't want to hear that from you!

Excuse me!

Just shut up, okay?

Nobody cares about you two!

Whose feelings are the most important here?!

Shin...

I'm sorry.

Why are you apologizing?

I mean, it's a coincidence, right?

Of course.

Then it's my fault.

It's hard to say something like that.

Of course!

I know it must've been really hard for you.

But I didn't realize at all.

I'm really dense when it comes to that stuff.

I'm really sorry I didn't realize.

I'm sorry!

No...

I created an atmosphere where it was hard to tell the truth, didn't I?

I'm sorry. Will you forgive me?

Stop it, please.

Please! There's no reason for you to apologize.

I see.

Okay, let's have fun then.

Right, Shizuka?

Right, Miyako-chan?

Yes.

Get the glasses.

Okay.

Okay, thank you.

Okay, ready...

Cheers!

Cheers!

This is good.

Ryou.

Yes?

Sing something.

Oh, I know! Dance.

You want me to dance?

Everybody, join in!

With more energy!

I'm sorry.

Boss...

You need to hit me.

You need to beat the crap out of me.

You said that, right?

You told Shizuka-san that if you met her awful husband,

you would beat the crap out of him.

You're right...

I was going to hit you.

You're right.

Yes.

Please do.

I could never do that.

But...

In exchange, please dance, Haruta-kun.

No, no, no.

Thanks!

No, no, no!

Thanks!

I understand.

Wow!

Way to go, Haruta-san!

Wow, Haruta-kun!

This is great, boss!

You get into it, too, Ryou!

Yeah! Yeah!

This is great, Haruta-kun.

Are you okay?

Me? I'm perfectly fine!

You don't seem like it.

Anyway, God is amazing.

Not only did he forgive you, he apologized!

I'm so amazed.

Does God apologize?

Huh?

I'm sorry.

He's so amazing! He has to be God.

Could any person be so kind?

Right?!

Isn't he amazing?!

He's amazing, right?!

Crazy! Crazy! It's crazy, I tell you!

I'm so moved! So impressed!

But I'm actually worried.

Isn't it hard for somebody to be so... pure, or nice?

You don't need to worry!

He'll be fine!

Yes.

Haruta...

Are you suffering now?

You said when you first met that...

...you didn't split up because you stopped loving her.

That's right.

And you still treasure her picture.

No, that just happened to still be here.

I just forgot it.

You got a new phone and you still have it!

It's clearly important to you!

Why does everybody love her so much?

Why?

It doesn't make sense.

It doesn't make sense!

Forget it! Forget it!

I'm going to bed.

No, that's my...

That's my...

Goodnight.

I'm really sorry.

I hurt you.

Shin?

Shin?

Sorry.

I'm sorry about today.

How did it go?

Was it okay?

Yeah.

What's wrong?

I may not be okay.

I mean...

Shin doesn't get mad.

He doesn't get upset, either.

It's kind of scary.

What's scary?

I mean, even though it was a coincidence,

we didn't tell him we used to be married.

Even though we were so close,

we lied to him about something important.

But he doesn't get mad.

It's impossible.

Normally you'd get mad, right?

What would you do, Haruta?

I'd get mad.

Right.

You'd snap.

Snapー

Yeah.

Sorry, that's not what I meant.

No, no.

I shouldn't do this, huh?

No, I shouldn't.

Sorry.

I shouldn't be talking to my ex-husband about this.

Sorry, sorry.

Sorry, really.

No.

I mean, normally that'd be the case.

But...

But...

No, but...

I guess it's okay.

This isn't a normal situation, is it?

When I said I'm scared,

I didn't mean I'm scared of Shin or anything.

It wasn't that.

It's like...

He's just such a pure-hearted person.

It's kind of scary.

You understand, right?

I'm not that wonderful of a person.

But Shin...

He's not just doing this for our sake...

It's not like he wants to get mad,

but he can't because he likes us, right?

I don't think so.

He really isn't mad.

He's really blaming himself for not realizing it.

Yeah.

What do you think about that?

What do I think?

I think he's a wonderful person.

And that's what's scaring me.

I don't know what to say to that.

Anyway, isn't this all your fault?

That weird old lady.

Weird old lady?

Kayako-san?

That old lady came out with the phone,

and she hadn't even said anything yet,

and you confessed everything.

What was that?

I'm sorry.

Would you please not apologize if you don't mean it?

I do mean it.

But the way you said that made me mad!

But...

I felt guilty toward the boss.

And it just didn't feel right to keep it a secret.

And I didn't want Kayako-san telling him.

Oh, you have a very strong sense of right and wrong!

I'm sorry. I guess I don't!

What kind of apology is that?

If you don't mean it, don't apologize!

We're just going in circles.

We used to argue like this all the time.

Yeah, we did.

I really shouldn't be talking about this with my ex.

I was almost about to say, "I like the rhythm when we fight like this!"

This is no good.

Sorry.

Don't leave me alone...

I told you to keep an eye on me!

Welcome.

What's up?

I wanted to get something to drink.

Me, too.

I wanted something with some fizz.

Me, too!

Here.

Thank you.

It's best to drink these right after you buy them, right?

This feels good.

Sorry about back there.

Huh? For what?

For that fight, I guess?

It had nothing to do with you.

Sorry.

Not at all!

And it's not like it has nothing to do with me.

We do live in the same place.

I see.

Yes.

But I suppose it is complicated...

There's a love triangle going on among the four of us.

This is a love triangle?

In a sense?

I see.

But it was a long time ago.

I see.

You're right.

But if I fell in love with you, Shin-san, it'd be a love square!

Just kidding.

A love square?

That'd be really complicated.

Do you not like that?

I'm not good with complicated stuff.

But if hypothetically...

Just hypothetically...

What would you do if I fell in love with you while I was living there?

What would I do?

That'd be a problem for me.

It would?

I mean, Shizuka wouldn't like that, right?

That'd be a problem.

It's a man's responsibility to protect those he loves.

But if that happened, what would you do?

If that happened...

I'd probably ask you to leave.

Of course, I'd find a place for you to live first.

You're right.

It's impossible, though.

Yeah.

Complicated stuff is difficult, you know.

You're right!

Right?

So I'm a little worried that someday...

...I'm going to really hurt him.

And it'll be my fault.

Like with our divorce.

No, that was your fault.

That was really awful.

But it was true I was cheating on you.

Huh?

What do you mean "Huh?"

Huh?

What is "Huh?"

What? No way...

You didn't know?

I mean you were screaming at me over it!

No, no, no.

Wait a second.

I was imagining things that weren't happening,

and that's why...

Oh, I see!

No, it happened.

You were just so awful every day,

so I had a little thing with my ex-boyfriend.

What do you mean "a little thing"?

Does that mean it's okay to hit a woman?

That's not the issue!

I mean, I never said I wasn't!

What the hell?!

So like that, even if it's in the past,

normally you'd get mad, right?

But Shin is just too pure, is what I'm saying.

He's too pure... I love him too much.

What? In the end are you just talking about how great he is?

What was that just now?

Who knows?

What do you mean who knows?

Okay, maybe it's time to go back to my beloved Shin.

He fell asleep in front of the TV,

and he looked so cute.

I see.

I want to get some sleep, too.

Okay.

Am I gonna be able to sleep?

Screw you!

What's wrong with you?!

Get out of the way!

What are you doing?

Stop! Stop!

Stop it, please!

Stop it, I said!

Stop it!

What are you doing?!

What is this?!

What is your problem?!

You should know!

No! No! No!

Are there any?!

Are there any carp?!

No! No! I saw one!

There aren't going to be any carp here!

No, I saw one!

That's a carp, isn't it?!

A carp! No!

I hate carp!

No carp!

I saw one...

I saw once...

I can't handle carp.

This isn't a cheap romantic comedy, so stop having these "coincidences"!

Next Episode

I want my life to go the way I planned it!

I just start loving Shin-sama even more!

I'm not rejecting you— Aw...

I feel like I'm prettier lately.

Come on, this way...

A carp!

Don't you feel a little guilty, president?

You don't have the right to be happy, though!

I'm going to be broken forever!

Don't leave me alone when it looks like things are about to get bad.

Please.
