Original subtitles

This is my big brother!

My brother is really tall.

His hands are big, too.

His feet are big, too.

- Excuse me! - His voice is loud, too.

I'm sorry! I'll pay up by the end of the month!

Forgive me! I'm really sorry!

Don't beat me up! Ouch! Ouch! It hurts! Please...

I'm Oki Kenji.

Thanks for taking care of my little sister Yasuko.

Oh... Oki?

[Parent-Teacher Conference Room]

So, what's the story with my Yasuko?

Well... Yes, let's see.

She does do things bright and cheerfully.

His face is a little scary, though.

How's her crucial studies going?

- This kind of older brother... - Well, about that...

Go ahead and

tell me honestly.

Ah... Her studies are sort of...

This kind of brother...

"Sort of"?

I hate!

You stupid idiot!

What are you doing?

Your fundamentals suck, you have no redeeming features... you're just stupid!

You won't be able to become a decent adult!

- You're one to speak! - Shut up!

What's been up with you recently, huh?!

Don't live so lazily!

The real world isn't nice.

Stop saying stuff like "the real world"!

What the heck do you think you are...

What?!

coming to the school like that?

This is my only good suit!

I had to change quickly for your conference!

They laughed at you.

What?

When everyone saw YOU, they laughed!

Don't call me "you"!

Call me "older brother"! "Older brother"!

Who's gonna call a guy like you that?!

How can you face your guardian and talk like that?!

Hey!

Yasuko!

Yasuko!

Our parents passed away 10 years ago.

Are you listening?

Hey!

Answer me!

I need answers! Yasuko!

- Since then, I've been living with this guy. - Yasuko!

Call me "older brother"!

You're not going to call me "older brother"? Open up!

Yasuko!

Geez. Just shut up!

"Shut up"?

- Who do you think you're talking to?! - You can tell just from looking...

that he was a boss of a bike gang.

Back then, it was always "brother, brother."

And these two were his lackeys from his bike gang days.

- Hey, let's go. - Okay.

Um, boss.

It's not boss anymore!

Call me Mentor Reika.

Mentor Reika? We should start work soon...

Yeah, the deadline's close.

Stupid idiots!

I already know that.

Using the pen name Sakuraba Reika,

this guy draws comics for young girls.

I dunno why, but he's actually quite popular.

His true identity can't be leaked to society.

Hey.

Yes, sir!

- Ajidasu lift your arm up, your arm. - Yes, sir.

- Mosu turn your face this way. - Yes, sir.

- Now turn back. - Yes, sir.

What's with this "Sakuraba Reika"...

It's not like he's outside.

I'm already 17 and

I don't even have one boy's number yet!

Such a...

Such a tragic adolescence

that I absolutely...

DON'T WANT!

Yasuko and Kenji 1

Translator: am.donut

Oh, that's right.

I sorta want my allowance in advance...

No way.

What? But there's a reference book that I want.

Which book is it? I'll buy it for you.

Forget it.

Tell me what you need! I'll arrange everything for you.

No thanks. I'm done eating.

Yasuko.

- Sit. - What is it?

- Dummies! - Yes, sir!

- Boss. - What?!

- I mean, Mentor Reika. - Okay.

We're done.

Look Yasuko, it's a masterpiece.

Huh? What?

[Yasuko's Schedule]

[Use the restroom, Brush teeth, Study, Eat breakfast, Study at school]

[Study, Take a bath, Study, Break, Study]

[Study, Break, Study]

What is this?

It's your study schedule.

Starting today, this is how it'll be.

Don't just decide on your own!

I'm going out with Aki and some friends to karaoke today!

Karaoke?

Oh, I see.

So, that's why you wanted your allowance earlier.

Yeah, so what!

Who ever heard of a monthly allowance of 2000 yen in this day and age!

I'm not in elementary school anymore.

Listen, Yasuko!

Come home right after.

Man, how irritating!

Dad, Mom...

I beg you.

Please keep him away from me.

For my sake,

for the sake of my future...

I'm begging you from the bottom of my heart!

Hey.

Wash your hands at least.

Did you bring a handkerchief and some tissue?

Here.

Be careful of cars!

Look both ways before crossing a street!

Don't follow strangers!

Geez...

I'm not a kid anymore.

Pops,

Mom.

Ease my worries and please watch over her.

As brother and sister, Yasuko and I will get along today.

Do you like flowers?

We're open starting today, so please stop by.

Sure.

Oh, shoot!

Hey, you!

What?

This.

It's... you.

Ouch.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

I'm sorry. I'm okay.

Ah, you're okay then.

See ya.

That guy just now was super dreamy!

Right on time.

[First Love Kiss!!] [Sakuraba Reika]

Hey, did you read it yet?

Isn't Sakuraba Reika's newest release cool?!

"No matter what happens, I'll always protect you."

Don't we all want this kind of love, too?

Yeah.

I want to fall in love like these well-drawn comics by

Mentor Sakuraba Reika.

Just as I expected of you, Great Sakuraba Reika.

This time around, the readers will vote for you as number one again.

Starting next month, we've decided that the next 3 monthly issues will have colored opening pages.

Thank you.

There's a flood of requests from the readers.

Like what kind of person is Sakuraba Reika? And is she actually pretty?

But actually, you were a boss of a bike gang.

Listen. No matter how many times I say this...

Don't do anything to betray your female readers.

It's absurd that you were involved with the police.

If any problems pop up, we'd have to fire you.

Understood.

You know, why do we still have to maintain this bike even though the boss tossed it out?

He wants to get rid of his biker past for Yasuko's sake.

Now it's just a relic of the past.

Yeah.

But Ajidasu, doesn't it look like this belongs at the World Heritage Center.

It's our duty to preserve this with precision for the boss.

For the World Heritage Center?

Yeah.

Nice thinking Mosu! I'll take note of this!

The boss is coming!

Hey dummies!

- Yes, sir! - Don't slack off and do your work!

Yes, sir.

I bought a watermelon for you bastards.

Thank you!

We're safe...

What?

Some guys from Shuuyuu kan High are coming to karaoke with us today, too?

It'll kick the mood up!

Yasuko, you come, too.

It sounds good, but...

I...

I can't.

What? Are you still trying to avoid it?

It's your chance to meet guys.

I have news! Big news! I hear there's a new transfer student in Special Class A!

No way!

I hear he's super hot, too!

Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me.

Which guy is it?

Ah...

I heard his name was Tsubaki Jun.

Tsubaki... Jun?

What are you guys doing?

This is Special Class A.

People from classes of lower ranks can't come in.

You may say that Shingyoji, but we're not exactly inside.

What? But you are!

The door's right here, so that means we're in the hall.

- Duh! - Don't come in and infect us with your stupidity.

We won't.

- You will. - We won't infect you or come in.

- What? - Don't get carried away just because you're smarter.

We're not getting carried away.

He's coming! He's coming!

Leave already!

You're Oki, right?

Huh? How do you know my name...

From this.

It's written real big, isn't it?

Eh? Well...

It's because...

It's all good. It's easier to spot this way.

Wait Yasuko! What's wrong?

So, he's Tsubaki...

Jun.

What's this uneasiness that I feel...

It's been a long time, Erika.

Aota.

You took good care of this guy here.

Why so distant?

I've been looking for you.

I'll teach you some manners, bastard!

Get the hell outta here now!

Kaori.

Well, I just wanted to say hello.

I'll stop by again,

Erika.

Erika. I just want to shut that guy up for once...

- Kaori. - But...

It's okay.

Okay?

Let's go make that advance order of bouquets.

- Okay? - Okay.

Jackass!

C'mon.

Huh? Oki?

Huh?

Well, this is my house.

What?

[Tsubaki Flower]

What?

Sister, I'm home.

Welcome home.

You're the one from this morning.

Hello.

Is she a friend from school?

No, not friends exactly...

Yeah, she's from the same school.

What?

That's great.

I was worried because he's so anti-social.

I got it! Would you mind having some tea?

Eh? Tea?

Ah, I wouldn't want to...

Barging into someone's house that I barely met is a little...

No, thanks.

No, thanks.

No, thanks.

So, you lived here 10 years ago?

Yeah, I lived around this area before.

But I wanted to open a new shop here, so Jun and I came back.

I could've just stayed at our parent's place, but I felt that Sis here would've been lonely so I came along.

So the truth comes out.

How nice...

Tsubaki's cool and his sister is, too.

She's elegant and kind.

Oh, we ran out of cake.

If you'd like, we have another one.

Ah, if you insist.

Eat up, okay?

I had a lot of fun today. Thank you.

Come back to hang out, okay?

Sure.

Tsubaki,

I'll see you tomorrow.

Yeah.

Oh, that's right!

Here's some flowers as a symbol of friendship.

- Kaori. - Yes.

- Never mind. Sorry to intrude.

Jun, go ahead and choose.

Okay, okay.

What do you like?

Ah, I dunno much about flowers so anything's fine.

I see...

How about this?

Sure!

Here you go.

Thanks.

Ah, I didn't ask for your name yet.

Oh, sorry.

It's Oki. Oki Yasuko.

Oki...?

Yeah...

Um...

Oh, it's nothing.

Sorry about that.

Well, thanks for everything.

Hey, where's dinner?

What's with the flower?

I dunno...

What's the hidden meaning behind sunflowers...

I only...

want...

to see...

you!

Tsubaki...

How about this?

Come to think of it... Could he possibly

be the first guy that I'll input into my cellphone?!

Cool! Cool! Cool!

My heart just skipped a beat!

Skipped a beat!

How can I eat this?!

Eh? What?

What the heck is this?

It was just a mistake.

"Just" you say?

Yasuko.

What did you do today and where?

Eh?

I was at the library studying...

So, you picked flowers at the library?

No, of course not!

- I picked it at a flower garden. - A flower garden?

Yeah, behind the library.

But there's only a storm drain behind the library.

And on one side, there's a bike storage area and in front there's a bar called "Tecchan."

It's a flower, huh?

- Normally, you would think it was from a guy... - A guy!?

Oh, no. That's just a common opinion.

So, it's a guy after all!

Yasuko.

Did you get this flower from a guy?

I don't believe this.

You just freely went into my room?

Don't try to change the subject!

You're the worst.

Can't you be somewhat delicate with my privacy?!

Don't you ever go into my room again without permission!

Yasuko!

I'll never forgive you if it is a boy!

So, "I only want to see you."

But doesn't it sound more like you?

"I only want to see Yasuko."

Please don't tease me right now.

But recently...

it seems that Yasuko hasn't been listening to you like she did before.

You're feeling lonely, right?

No, I'm not.

But you still have a ways to go till this is settled.

The day has come for things like dating guys,

so don't feel like dying just yet.

What if she says, "I'm sleeping over."

Just breathe and forget about it.

I will definitely not allow that!

She's still growing to become an adult.

And when is that?

Anyway,

she's still a kid.

So, 17 year-olds are still kids, huh?

I will definitely not lose!

It's been a long time that I haven't seen you,

Oki Kenji.

I think we've been mistaking him for someone else.

Yasuko.

Starting today, your curfew is 4PM.

Huh?!

Okay.

[Come home at 4PM]

[Study afterwards]

[Be Punctual]

Hey, wait a minute!

4PM? You know that's impossible! School ends at 3PM!

Come straight home right after.

Don't even be late one minute or one second.

If you break this rule, I'll confiscate your cellphone.

What?

[Violation equals confiscation]

That's what we promised when I bought the cellphone for you.

You said, that you would listen to whatever I say.

What's your response?

Yasuko!

You're supposed to respond, "Yes!"

Ignore him. Ignore.

I'll just completely ignore him.

Tsubaki!

The first guy's number that I want to input into this cellphone...

I've decided is you, Tsubaki.

Alright, let's do it, Yasuko.

Dear Tsubaki!

- Good morning. - Morning.

Do you want some math tutoring?

Yeah, sure thing.

This time for sure.

Yasuko.

If you put your mind to it, you can do it!

Alright.

It's time to get Tsubaki's number!

Ouch...

Are you okay, Oki Yasuko?

Hey, look at this.

This is an original "Oki Yasuko" cellphone.

She's like a baby.

It's written with an oil pen!

I wouldn't want to walk around holding this.

How embarrassing.

Tsubaki laughed at me, too.

This and that, everything is all that guy's fault!

I have to stand up to him.

Hey, Oki!

- Where are you going? - Huh?

What do you mean where?

You have detention today. You failed the test, right?

So, I have to finish everything?

How absurd.

Oh? Oki?

Detention?

Huh?

Ah... Oh, yeah.

Whoa, you have to do all of that?

Yeah.

You want me to help out?

What?

Thank you so much!

You saved me.

No problem.

Well, I'm off.

Starting today, your curfew is 4PM. [4PM Curfew]

If you violate this, I'll confiscate your cellphone! [Confiscate Cellphone]

But I decided to ignore him, though.

Yeah!

If I don't go now, when will I get the chance again?!

Uh... Um...

Tsubaki.

Let me... Let me thank you.

It's like a dream.

Alone with Tsubaki.

It's sorta...

like a date.

That damn Yasuko...

What is she thinking?

Uh, maybe Yasuko's watch is broken.

Didn't you hear me say, "what is she thinking?" You bastard!

- Answer now jackass! - I don't know anything!

He's irrational...

It's like we're a real couple in love.

She's not home yet.

It's dark outside already.

Let's turn on the lights.

Yeah, we should. Light, we need light.

You have reached the answering machine service center. The receiver is unable to answer your call right now.

Here's our follow-up report on the serial kidnappings of female high school students.

There's been a repeat occurrence in Tokyo coming into this month.

The kidnapping targets have been female high schoolers who are on their way home.

According to police headquarters, it's very likely that it's the same group of criminals.

Everything's fine, huh? Yasuko is just out with her friend somewhere! Boss!

Huh? He's gone!

Boss!

Whoa, it got really dark, huh.

Crap. I totally forgot about the time.

[That guy]

This is bad...

What's up?

Oh.

It's nothing.

What should I do...

That guy's going to go psycho.

No. No! It's all over, if I turn around.

B-but...

What's wrong?

Tsubaki, please. Don't ask me anything and just run!

What?

Dumbass!

Wait!

Wait, you dumbass!

You guys aren't waiting, huh?!

Who's that guy?

Please, don't question me!

Hey!

Crap. If Tsubaki finds out that's my brother,

- he'll definitely hate me. - Wait!

Wait, you dumbass!

Ouch...

This way!

- Boss! - Boss!

We won't be able to meet our deadline!

I don't care about the deadline!

That idiot was here!

That idiot was really here!

It looks like he's gone.

Eh?

Yeah!

Oki.

Hm?

You're bleeding.

Let's fix you up at my place for now.

At your place?

Let's go!

Don't move.

Okay.

Okay, all done.

Eh?

Thanks.

What's wrong?

Are you hot?

Your face is red.

Ah. Oh... It's nothing.

I told you to get the hell outta here!

Erika doesn't want to be associated with you!

- We won't back down to a small fry like you! - You're the small fry here!

Kaori.

I'm sorry.

Kaori, you haven't changed one bit from 10 years ago.

It's more like you haven't changed at all!

That's quite true.

My feelings for Erika will never change.

What's going on?

Can't you just leave, Aota?

As usual, your angry face is lovely as well, Erika.

Leave.

Say Erika...

Did you come back here to this town for that guy?

Yes.

I did.

Do you have a problem with that?

- Let's go. - Okay.

Please do not hardsub, rent, sell, or stream these subtitles!

Your first love?

Yeah.

I came back to this town so I could see him again.

When I was 18, I just gave up on him.

He probably found someone else by now.

But I won't give up.

It took me 10 years to finally realize it.

I shouldn't draw the line just there.

If I drew the line there,

I wouldn't be able to move forward.

I'm deeply moved!

This is your confession, right?

It'll definitely go fine.

This is hopeless.

I can't be straight-forward.

In front of him, I might...

suddenly...

Eh?

You'll be fine because you're bursting with charm!

I guarantee it. He will definitely see it too.

I'll be rooting for you Erika!

Thanks!

Hey, what kind of person is he?

This person...

in all respects is determined, brave,

a little sensitive,

and has the most beautiful eyes.

He sounds amazing.

- Hey, Sis. What's this... - Excuse me!

I'm sorry to intrude if you're in the middle of something.

But it's about time to close the shop up.

Ah, I'm sorry.

But I have to get going...

It might be troublesome, but eat with us.

I'm really sorry. Please invite me next time.

Wait one sec, Yasuko.

Yeah?

Yasuko, you have...

an older brother, right?

No, I don't! How could I?

Since birth, I've always been an only child.

Is that so?

If you'll excuse me. Sorry for intruding.

Hey, wait up.

I'll go with you.

Eh?

Hey, about that guy who chased us earlier...

Ah, that was nothing!

Everything's fine, so forget about it.

But you know...

Well, here's fine...

Eh, are you sure?

Yup! Thanks for today.

Ah, wait up!

I'm worried that something else might happen,

so lemme give you my number.

Ah! Oki Yasuko!

I've been waiting for this...

This moment right now is the best ever!

So, did you get it?

[Tsubaki Jun]

Oki?

Yeah.

Thanks.

It's that guy!

Yasuko!

Yasuko!

Hey, he just said your name.

So, you're not listening to anything that your bro says, huh?!

Bro?

Huh!

He's your brother? But earlier you said...

Forget it! It's nothing.

Up till now, what have you been doing and where?!

- What do you mean, where? - So, it's this guy.

How dare you trick a girl before getting married!

Huh!

Hey, what are you saying! Stop it.

Tsubaki isn't a bad guy. Let him go!

I apologize.

Huh?

We took a detour as we were going home from school.

It's my bad.

Tsubaki...

I apologize.

Listen up, youngster.

From now on, don't be influencing Yasuko.

C'mon!

Sorry, Tsubaki!

I'm very sorry!

C'mon dumbass!

What kinda relationship do you have with that guy earlier?!

- He's just a friend from school. - What were you doing out this late?

He helped me with some homework

and afterwards we went out for tea.

I told you that your curfew was at 4PM!

Give it up.

Give it up!

You violated your curfew, so as promised, I have to confiscate your cellphone!

No.

No?

Anything but this.

Shut up! Give it up now!

Why? No means no!

Yasuko!

You have to follow the rules!

Listen, you're still a kid!

Kids have to listen to their guardians!

I have to confiscate your cellphone like we agreed! You better not meet up with that guy again!

- Boss, that's a little... - Shut up!

Gimme a break...

What?

Gimme a break!

Kid? Study? Curfew?

Everything that comes out of your mouth is the same thing. Can't you say something else?

I'm fed up with it!

What did you say?

You enter my room without permission. You write my name big on everything!

Don't you get it? I'm not a kid anymore. I'm 17 years old!

I'm starting to like someone and I want to go out on dates!

I want to go out with everyone for karaoke!

I just want to live a normal life!

Why do you have to interfere with every little single thing!

And what about you!

You joined a bike gang and did whatever you wanted, right?!

When Dad and Mom died, where were you?

You were at a gang meet-up, right?!

You became my guardian only when it was convenient.

But you weren't there when I needed you most!

If I knew it was like this...

I'd rather be an only child!

Yasuko!

Go ahead and beat me up!

If you think that beating me up will solve it, you're mistaken.

Ouch!

Yasuko!

Don't run after her!

Let's work!

It's going to be okay, right?

I dunno...

Should we go look for Yasuko?

Yeah.

When Dad and Mom died, you were at a gang meet-up, right?!

Ken, don't say anything bad...

It can't be helped. We'll have to take custody Yasuko.

Yasuko isn't going anywhere.

I'll work and the two of us will live together.

I'm retiring from the bike gang!

So, give me 1 year... Please give me 1 year.

I beg you.

I beg you!

Brother...

This is my big brother!

My brother is really tall.

His hands are big, too.

His feet are big, too.

His voice is loud, too.

His face is a little scary, though.

This kind of brother...

I love.

If I knew it was like this...

I'd rather be an only child!

From Tsubaki Jun Are you okay?

I'm sorry

that I lied about being an only child.

But you know, he's really cruel.

When it comes to me, he makes no distinction

and interferes with anything and everything.

But you know,

doesn't that mean that he loves you?

If he didn't think about you, he wouldn't go as far to do that.

Anyway, I think it's best if you went home tonight.

I think your brother is worried about you.

I'm not going home.

I'm not going home.

What are you guys doing?

Your girlfriend is in high school, right?

That's not good.

What's it to you guys?

What does it mean...

- Open it up! - Let her go! Hey!

Yasuko?

Yasuko!

Erika! Hurry!

Thanks.

My adrenaline hasn't been pumped up in awhile!

Wait!

Let's have some fun now!

Missy! Who's gonna start?

I...

am being punished...

I'd rather be an only child!

for saying such cruel things.

Hey, you brats! What are you doing?!

You damn brats!

- That guy has always - Brother.

protected me no matter what...

Yasuko, what's the answer to the puzzle earlier?

Alright! Time for a piggyback ride!

One, two!

That guy has always been by my side.

[Comic Awards]

How's it going, Yasuko.

See, I'm serious about releasing stuff like this. [Sakuraba Reika (Tokyo - Age 19)]

- Wow! - Cool, huh?

- That's cool, brother! - Isn't it?

It's going to get cooler!

Alright. It's okay if you lose this

because it'll be easy to find right away.

Thanks!

- Wanna write it on your notebook, too? - Yeah!

I really loved that guy.

Even though...

It's something she dropped.

Brother...

Brother!

Theme Song: TOKIO - Amagasa (Umbrella)

You bastards...

what are you doing with my little sister?

What did you say?

I said what are you doing?! You bastards!

Don't be acting tough!

Yasuko!

I don't mind how much you hate me.

But at least you liked me in the beginning.

But you know,

no matter what happens, I'll be there to protect only you!

Bastard!

That is my right.

Brother.

I'm sorry.

Are you hurt?

No.

That outfit...

Hm? Ah, it's because of these dummies.

Thank the World Heritage Center!

But...

Let's go home.

Okay!

Alright, let's go!

Yes, sir!

Listen carefully, youngster.

If you can't protect Yasuko, don't even come near her.

Got it?

What the heck are you doing with my lil brother?!

E-Erika?

Sis.

- That lady's... - From the Black Roses?

You bastard...

I'm seriously gonna mess you up in less than 5 seconds!

Do you have a problem, bitch?

Ah.

Oh, no...

He's a little sensitive, and has the most beautiful eyes.

Say something you damn bitch.

Who are you calling a damn bitch?!

AH?!

It's been awhile, Oki Kenji.

You're always in the mix as usual!

I've missed Erika "The Red Flower"!

E-Erika...

Why are you...

I can't be straight-forward. In front of him, I might...

suddenly...

The person that Erika likes is...

What is it, you bastard...

This has gotten somewhat interesting.

Eh! What's the meaning of all this?

Please go out with my stupid brother!

Are you okay, Sis?

You damn bitch!

I won't forgive you for laying a finger on him!

This is my right!
