Ah! Mornings feel nice!

It really feels like something nice is going to happen today!

Translation by Shinsen-Subs

During countless nights,

ikusen no yoru ni

幾千の夜に

each time I would think about you,

anata wo omoeba

あなたを想えば

I’d feel sad the road our loves tread on

kono koi no yukue

この恋の行方

would only miss each other

surechigai setsunai

すれ違い切ない

As I raise my eyes to the window,

furiyamanai ame

降り止まない雨

and see the unstopping rain,

mado kara miagete

窓から見上げて

the tears overflow in my heart as well.

watashi no kokoro ni mo namida afureta

私の心にも涙あふれた

But in the gaps between the clouds dancing in the sky

sora wo nagareru kumo no sukima ni

空を流れる雲の隙間に

light gently shines on me, as if the sky were smiling at me

hikari sashite sotto hohoemu you ni

光差して、そっと微笑むように

On that tree-lined pathway we both walked down

futari de aruita namikimichi

二人で歩いた並木道

in the cherry-blossom-colored season,

sakura iro no kisetsu no naka de

サクライロノキセツの中で

feelings of joy and merriness came together.

hashaida fuzakeatta omoi kasaneta

はしゃいだ、ふざけ合った 想い重ねた

The rain has now stopped falling on that tree-lined pathway

ameagari aruku namikimichi

雨上がり歩く並木道

and the season is colored by cherry blossoms.

sakura iro no kisetsu no naka de

サクライロノキセツの中で

We now walk and climb the stairs

kaidan nobotteku

階段上ってく

believing in our goal, our love…

ai no GOAL wo shinjiteyuku

愛のゴールを 信じてゆく

Letter for Miharu

You look like you’re enjoying yourself, Miharu.

Yes! It feels like I’m 100 times more energetic than usual this morning!

Ah, good morning!

Morning.

It looks like you’re used to the school now, Aisia-san.

Yes, everyday is full of new experiences, I just can’t sit still!

Oh, Jun’ichi don’t lag behind! Let’s hurry up!

She’s right! Let’s go to school and have fun!

Hey, don’t pull that hard! Aisia! Miharu!

Well then, I’m going to my classroom.

Let’s meet for lunch.

Yes!

See you, Miharu.

Here.

What’s wrong, Miharu?!

Hey, Miharu!

Aaaah, Asakura-senpai!

What are you yelling for?

It’s nothing, it’s nothing!

“Nothing” you say?

Err… well, see you!

No way.

That’s obviously the “love letter in the shoe box” pattern.

I see. Miharu finally found love.

Say Aisia, what do you think about it?

About what?

“What” you say?

Oh well.

By taking the length of segment AP…

Stupid.

Miharu Amakase

Here you go, everyone.

Oooh, pudding!

Thank you, Kotori!

Are you okay with treating all of us to pudding?

Yes! I made quite a lot during cooking lessons.

So your class got to cook a sweet dish. How lucky.

We had to cook vegetables, right?

Yeah. We should cook more appealing things.

If it had been sweets, I could have offered them to my beloved person…

with a “here!”, or something cute along those lines.

That is of course, if you had someone you could offer them to.

What’d you mean?! If I wanted to, even I could find someone!

You mean the dog next door, and the cat on the catty-corner?

Just what carnivores like them need.

What did you say?!

There, there. Instead of fighting with each other, why don’t we eat?

Well then, here I go!

This is…

Banana!

Yeah, for once I tried to make it banana-flavored, just as Amakase-san likes it!

You like it too. Right, Miharu?

How come? The puppy girl hasn’t reacted to the bananas?!

Are you hurt somewhere?!

Oh, shouldn’t we say that, on the contrary, it’s like her?

Eh?

On the contrary?

Well, you see…

WHAT?! A love letter in her shoe box?!

How? Could it be that Spring has come for Miharu? Before me, her senpai?!

No, that’s not…

Now there’s material for a scandal…

You’re getting the wrong idea!

It isn’t what you think, I’m telling you!

Then, what was it?

Well, that is… I can’t say it.

Oh, come on. Don’t say that, tell us!

Who sent it?

Is it someone we know?

Could it be one of the cute boys from a lower class?

No… I told you, it’s…

It’s?

It’s…

Aren’t you carrying that letter with you?

No! Anything but that!

Wait!

Wait up!

Uh…

They sure love to keep tabs on everything.

Well, until now, boys meant nothing to her, it’s not much of a surprise.

Really, you shouldn’t have said that, Asakura-kun.

I didn’t think they’d go overboard like that…

They all want to see Miharu’s letter?

Well, if you asked me, I’d say I want to, but…

If they make too much of a fuss about it, it’s going to be a problem.

Even though you say that, Kotori Shirakawa, you also are interested. Am I wrong?

Well… it concerns Amakase-san, so I was wondering if we should keep an eye on her…

Quite right.

Well, since it’s decided, Aisia, don’t do–

Huh? Aisia?

She went that way.

Hey wait, Aisia! What are you up to?

Well, if everyone could see Miharu’s letter, everyone would be happy, right?

Magic is something one person uses to make many people happy.

So, I…

Ah, damn. We’ll talk about that later!

So, don’t do stupid things!

So, you two fell down the stairs…

I don’t mind if you get along, but don’t overdo it.

It’s not like that!

Ouch, it’s soaking in…

Don’t sound like you’re in so much pain!

It’s all your fault.

What? It’s all because you talked about that, Jun’ichi.

There, there…

How about calling it quits?

Aisia-chan, Asakura-kun.

Oh, I see. You’re Jun’ichi Asakura.

Well, yeah. What’s wrong?

No, it’s nothing.

Asakura-senpai! Aisia-san! Are you okay?

I came as soon as I heard you were brought to the infirmary!

Err! Is that because of me?

Well, it’s more like…

Reaping what you sow.

It’s okay. Don’t worry about it, Miharu.

Then it’s fine, but…

Ah! Thanks for this morning.

Can I talk to you for a minute?

Huh?

Okay.

You read it, right?

Yes. But, er…

I can’t talk about it here.

Still, I didn’t expect it to be Akishima from the infirmary who sent that letter to Miharu.

But, from what we could see, that must be it.

Well, it might be a good thing for Miharu to have someone so quiet to balance her out.

Finally, Miharu found herself a lover.

Well, it’s not like it’s already decided, though.

Anyhow, Asakura-kun. Don’t tell the others about this.

Yeah, I know.

This is so Miharu can be happy.

Happy?

Is it a good thing when you find a lover?

Well, you could say that. It really changes your way of life.

Do you have one, Jun’ichi?

Me?

Well… I wonder…

Well never mind me, we should think about Miharu!

Right now, I hope things will go smoothly for her! That’s all!

Y-Yeah, you’re right!

Mr. Headmaster, thank you.

Now, we have an announcement from Mr. Akishima of the infirmary.

Mr. Akishima, here you go.

Okay, there are a lot of things I must tell you today.

First, the physical examination shall take place tomorrow at 10AM.

Oh, here it comes, here it comes.

Oh well, the unexpected love message only came to her yesterday.

Seems like I really can’t help but notice it.

What’s wrong, Asakura? Why are you looking so happy?

Oh, it’s nothing.

Right in your field of view was…

Oh, I see.

You did find out something, didn’t you?

Huh?

Now, Asakura, if you found out something, let us know as well!

Now, what’s with you guys?

It’s about time you stopped going all out, spying on other people!

We don’t give a damn about who Miharu goes out with, right?

Wha! And you’re playing the saint even though you know! That’s sick…

Come on, now, tell us!

Asakura!

You guys, really…

Please everyone, be quiet!

Hey there! You’re making too much noise!

Nemu…

Be quiet during the meeting.

Nemu!

Starting today, I shall work as a trainee at the infirmary.

My name is Nemu Asakura.

Nice to meet you.

Hey, it’s Nemu!

Nemu Asakura!

She went to a nurses’ college!

It’s Asakura’s sister!

Welcome home, Nemu-senpai!

Welcome back!

Welcome back!

I’ve been waiting for so long…

Nemu…

Nemu… is back…

Nemu’s…

Well, still… don’t you think it’s a happy occasion?

It has been two years since your sister decided to stop going to university

and enter into a nurses’ college.

You haven’t met her even once during that time, have you?

Shouldn’t you be jumping into her arms, right now?

I don’t think the doctor would say anything, so how about you go to see her?

It’s okay. I don’t mind.

I don’t need to go that far.

Oh, come on. Don’t overdo it.

Who’s overdoing it?!

Infirmary

Well, now…

I’ll start explaining in detail what your job as a trainee will be.

Yes.

How about having lunch?

I can treat you to lunch, as a welcoming gift.

No, I had prepared…

one myself, for the occasion.

Oh, really?

Well, I’ll be in the school’s lunch room.

Okay.

But are you sure this was okay?

I did as you told me. I only told Amakase-san.

But, the most important person for you

only found out at this morning’s meeting that you were back.

Er… but, I planned on coming back only after graduating from the college, so…

When I left Hatsunejima, I did quite an unreasonable thing.

So now I’ve decided to come back…

I thought it’d be better if I did it… BIG.

Then it’s all right.

Oh.

Miharu!

Nemu-senpai.

Welcome home.

I’m back, Miharu.

You really feel more mature, now…

People change, when two years pass.

Two years…

Nemu-senpai!

I’ve been so lonely.

I’ve been so lonely.

Miharu.

But, Nemu-senpai, your chest hasn’t grown any bigger in two years.

Mi-ha-ru!

Senpai!

Miharu, why you!

Sorry!

In the end, he didn’t come back…

Asakura-sama.

That idiot, at such an important moment!

Nemu.

Mako!

Nemu, say… actually…

Infirmary

Nemu!

No way.

Why?

Nii-san!

Nemu.

That’s mean.

Why did you go home on your own?

I’ve been waiting all this time!

Waiting for you to come…

I wonder who’s the meanest.

I waited, too…

Ever since I saw you off, when you left the island.

You told Miharu, but why?!

Why didn’t you tell me?

Because…

But… well…

Was it that much fun trying to surprise me?

That’s not it! That’s not it…

Please, please understand!

Do whatever you want.

Why, Nii-san? You’re so mean! Stupid!

It would have been better if I didn’t come back!

This is for tricking me.

Nii-san.

I waited for you. Two years…

Nii-san.

Nii-san.

Nii-san!

Nii-san!

Welcome home, Nemu.

Nyaa. Nyaa.

I’m back, Utamaru-san.

Nyaaaa.

Nemu Asakura is back, to the home of her memories!

Err, Nii-san!

Who is that person?

“That person”?

Gah! Damn it!

“Damn it”?!

Err, that is… you see…

Is something the matter, Jun’ichi?

Jun’ichi?!

Err, I’m telling you…

She has quite a long story about her…

I wonder WHAT story she has and WHAT you two were doing!

Don’t be imagining weird things!

Please calm down and listen to what I have to say!

Nii-san, you idiot!

The gentle sun feels like a bubble floating and falling

yawaraka na hi ga toki ni maichiru utakata no you

柔らかな陽が 時に舞い散る 泡沫のよう

You were there in the future that bloomed that day in my heart

boku no kokoro ni ano hi saita mirai kimi ga iru

僕の心に あの日咲いた未来 君がいる…。

The day we passed by each other, we sang out our combined feelings

surechigau tabi ni hi kasaneta omoi wo

すれ違うたびに 重ねた想いを

to the sky, in this poem dedicated to the dawn

sora ni kanadeyou akatsuki no kono uta wo

空に奏でよう 暁のこの詩を

Ah, this path goes on forever,

aa owarinaki kono michi wo

終わりなき この道を

and we will never doubt it or stray from it

mayoinagara mo tokineru koto wa nai

迷いながらも 途切れる事のない

We’ll embrace that love

ai wo dakishimete

愛を 抱きしめて

The cherry blossoms are falling gently, carried by the wind…

sakura kaze kara koborete shizuku

桜風からこぼれた雫

and I want to watch them forever… together with you.

nee zutto issho ni mitsumeteitai

ねぇずっと一緒に 見つめていたい

Crossing and missing each other

Waai! Welcome home, Nemu-senpai!

Miharu waited for a long time, wondering “will she come, will she come”?

Right now, you and Asakura-senpai must be in a love-love mood!

Or so I thought.

Huh? What’s going on? Why the evil face? You just got back…

Aha. I see. I see. I get it!

Let me take care of things!
