Sorry, we have to leave early.

Could you submit our attendance cards?

But according to various publications
And presentations by academics.

The phenomenon manifests universally.

That's the end of today's lecture.

Push.

I'm hella hungry, Konishi.

Me too.

For real? Don't leave me hanging.

I haven't seen you for months
like half a year.

You're right.

"Been a while."

Or "You're still alive?"

But I said "I'm hella hungry,
and you just left me hanging".

What should I hella eat?

You always eat
chicken cutlets with tartar.

Not hell a true.

- You don't know me at all.
- Choose it, Yamane.

Green, No.55.

That's hella me.

Don't forget my extra tartar sauce.

Just this one. Right.

You always give me hella extra.

Yummy!

The solo soba noodles girl?

That's the nickname I gave her.

Which year?

- Second-year.
- She is?

She's in our year?

You just came back today
How do you know?

We just had the same lecture.

It's cold up here.

There's not enough sunlight.

We're not brave enough to
lie down there with them.

But they're stuck with artificial turf.

The ground up here
is hella more valuable.

Hella more valuable

I'll speak how I like

I'm from Oita.

If I spoke like a true Osaka
that would lack class

I'll use The Yamane Dialect.

Is that so?

It's probably hard to grow
roots on this rooftop.

It means they're forever young.

You're such an optimist.

It's snowing.

- You ready?
- Yep.

Looking up at the buildings
soaring into the sky

I'm standing here
in the middle of the wind.

The crowd never lays their eyes on me.

Looking at the stream of a muddy river

I'm starting to lose my mind.

Sakura!

You remember me?

Singing is the only thing
that makes me feel alive.

Singing is the only way
I can pour my heart out.

Harmonic Soul.

I let out a deep-breath

I try doing something new

I hear something
from the depths of my ocean.

Singing gives me
the power to keep living on.

Singing is the only way
I can pour my heart out.

Harmonic Soul.

SHI CHI FUKU HOT BATH.

- Hey, it's been a while.
- It has.

- Your shift starts now?
- Yes.

- Hang in there.
- Thank you

I talk too much.

Harmonic Soul.

Sorry I gotta go. I'll be late.

See you next time!

Excuse me

@YAMAAI_ KEIGO.

It feels like.

Society is.

Saying goodbye.

- Hello, boss.
- Konishi!

Hello, my employee and friend.

Thanks for coming back. I owe you.

No, I owe you
I'm sorry for all the trouble.

Not at all.

With Sacchan, Kaho and me
We worked it out.

You're back from Yokohama?

Welcome back.

- Sorry, Kaho-san.
- No, you have perfect timing.

Look here. Can you see?

Ta-da!

The old ladies start worrying I'll slip

I'm more nuisance than help these days.

Congratulations. Wow. Just like that.

Don't be silly
It didn't happen "Just like that".

She's been growing bit by bit
the whole time you were away.

So, you'll be a grandfather

I'll be a doting grandfather
You can count on that!

He's going to spoil my kid rotten.

Hurry up and pop out.

Hello, everyone.

Hello, my employee and friend.

Look at here.

Konishi. Welcome back

I'm back.

Good to see you.

Sure is, right?

Then I'll leave
the rest to you and Sacchan.

- See you.
- Thank you.

- Bye.
- Thank you.

Bye.

Good evening
Good evening.

When can I hear you play the guitar?

- I'm too shy.
- I'm looking forward to it.

Me too.

See you around. Good night!

Good night.

Stop daydreaming.

You need orders? Let's get to it!

It snowed this evening in Kyoto.

Freak weather?

A miracle, right?

It was so pretty.

This evening?
I must've missed it beneath my umbrella

I'll ask Yamane about it

I want to meet Yamane one day.

He's a bit weird
His fashion sense sucks too.

Don't say that.

If I introduced him to a girl from work
He might get depressed.

Huh?

What's with that?

All done.

So you know
the band called Spitz, right?

Yeah, I do.

Well, they have a song about first love.

It's called "Hatsukoi Crazy"
And it has the best intro in the world.

Hey!

Let me be clear

I only say that after having heard
countless other songs.

When I say it's the best in the world
Don't take it lightly.

It starts with the piano
Then the drum slowly builds up.

The lead-up to when he starts singing
is really the best in the world.

You should check it out.

Okay sure. I'll listen to it.

I forgot how noisy this is.

Why say that? I love this sound

I wish Sasaki-san would
put a cloth in there.

The neighbors don't mind
It plays the finest sound.

- Wisdom from the pro musician.
- It's not like that.

That sound is just the finest

I don't get it.

Good night.

Today's shift was fun.

Yeah.

If you were a hot college girl
It would've been no fun at all.

Right?

Of course it's fun when I'm there.

You're so confident in yourself.

Bye-bye.

ATTENDANCE CARD NAME
HANA SAKURADA

Eh?

I'm sorry, but I have to leave early.

Could you submit my attendance card?

Okay.

You scared me.

What's wrong, Konishi?

What happened to your umbrella?

I forgot it.

Yamane, there's
something I haven't told you

I had a girlfriend last year
She was a senior.

Why did you keep it secret?

Well.

You don't like hearing
about people's love lives.

That's you.

No, I don't mind.

By the way
Where do you buy your clothes?

My clothes?

I buy them when I go back to Oita

I go shopping with my girlfriend.

Your girlfriend?

My girlfriend.

Hello?

You finally picked up.
You're still alive?

I feel so stupid for worrying.

Look at your bedhead.

Sorry

I should get paid double
for doing the shift alone.

I'll pay you myself.

I'm joking. We're cool.

Then I'll buy you dinner.

Shall we call that a deal?

Sure.

Chop, chop.

We have work to do.

Excuse me.

Sorry?

I'm Toru Konishi.

I asked you to submit
my attendance card the other day.

It was greatly appreciated.

Not at all.

You're welcome.

Thank you for saying
"You're welcome".

No, I should thank you.

Should I?

That's kinda weird.

Well it was the first time somebody ever
sat next to me in a lecture.

For real?

Sorry.

Like I said Thank you.

- Uh-oh.
- We're in trouble.

This bell.

Isn't it noisy?

Yes, it is loud.

You're right
It's more "loud" than "noisy".

How loud would it feel
If they played it at home?

I've never thought about that before.

When sounds are
too loud they're scary, right?

You're right.

When they're too loud, they're scary.

May I ask you something?

Ever turned your TV's volume to the max?

Huh?

No, I haven't.

You don't have a TV?

Actually, I do have one.

Don't tell me.

Introduction to Philosophy A?

Try turning up the volume
on your TV some time.

You'll sit there? Then I'll go here.

It's actually quite hard

I get scared, and give up halfway.

How embarrassing

I've never told anybody that before.

Even your friends?

I don't have a single friend.

Neither do I.

Actually, I do have one.

A guy called Yamane.

But you look like you'd make
friends easily, Sakurada-san.

How do you know my name?

Oh, sorry

I saw it on your attendance card.

Creep.

Just kidding.

Toru Konishi?

I read yours too.

Creep.

Just kidding.

See those people?

When the lecture ends, they come alive.

Talking loudly and bubbling with energy.

When I was a first-year.

A part of me wanted to be one of them

I'd slap on a smile.

And slowly walk out of the class
together with them.

But I started feeling so stupid.

When I became a second-year

I decided to stop
putting myself through all that.

Now I'm the first one
to leave the classroom.

When I was a first-year

they made me lend them my notebook.

It came back bent

I really hated that.

It makes me mad
just hearing about it now.

But I bet they don't even
remember me one bit.

They needed you to help them?
They should all burn with shame.

They looked down on you, right?

They needed help from someone
They look down on.

How stupid is that?

They should burn with shame.

Let's leave now.

Wait.

Give that to me.

Excuse me. Please submit these.

- Sorry.
- Thanks.

Push?

- Push.
- Push!

We've done it now.

Sure we have.

Huh?

It stopped raining.

Go ahead. Laugh all you like.

I like the rain.

You can raise your umbrella
And not worry about being looked at.

Sorry.

On top of that, I wear rain boots.

And I take the back path
And walk under the roof

I'm invincible

I'm protected
from the rain and prying eyes.

That back path?
I thought it was all mine.

No, that's what I thought.

But today I suddenly found someone
Walking in front of me.

Damn.

Damn.

What are you doing?

But the truth is
I want to be invincible in more ways.

I want to enjoy every day
Whether it's sunny or cloudy.

I want to think
"Today's sky is my favorite".

That's what my dead dad used to say.

- I'm sorry.
- No, no.

Having a dead dad is heavy, right?
Don't worry about it.

It happened ages ago.

Back when I was 9.

Just be like "So her dad's dead".

You make that look so heavy
Why suddenly cardboard?

Suddenly Cardboard!

Do you know that band?

You're carrying that like a cross.

Just like you're Jesus.

The Hill of Golgotha?

What's with this Hill of Golgotha?

It's all ours.

If it hadn't rained
We could lie down on the ground here.

Like the normal kids do down there.

Living their youth.

They only get artificial turf.

We get the natural stuff.

It's more valuable.

Are you for real, Sakurada-san?

Already?

Oh.

It's just the right volume up here.

Right?

A lot of things are just right here.

This is a special place for you.

Yeah.

Now I have the urge to show you
Somewhere that's special to me.

I was advised by women my senior.

To simply disregard
the comments of such men.

But how far will they go?

How long must I keep quiet?

I would be right to get angry
to get furious.

They dare to speak of chastity
And taint a woman for life.

Kaneko Kitamura?

The first female student
at Kansai University?

She was a journalist.

A pilot.

An amazing person.

She died when she was 27.

She was an amazing woman.

Did you know about her?

No

I'd never heard of her.

Right?

Ladies, you must be sharper!

With those words, I say farewell.

It makes me mad.

As though it's built into my DNA.

It makes me mad as a woman.

I want everyone to be more grateful.

For the amazing pioneer we had.

Sorry.

I thought you'd understand

I thought I could show my anger to you.

That's why I brought you.

For those thoughts.

Thank you.

Thank you for saying thank you.

What's your hobby?

My hobby?

I think what's happening
to us is "serendipity".

Oh, how embarrassing.

That made me sound so lame.

Like I'm trying to use big words.

The Three Princes of Serendipity.

That's the name of the story.

From which the word "serendipity" comes.

It more or less means.

"Hooray for lucky coincidences."

So I decided to ask you
an elementary question.

I see.

My hobby?

I wonder.

What's yours?

Removing lint from the lint trap
in my washing machine.

I swipe out the bits that get caught.

It's been my job for years in my family.

Oh it's not my job. It's my hobby.

It's cool that you have a hobby.

Really?

That's nice of you

I was scared you might
say something like.

"What the hell kind of hobby is that?"

There's a cuckoo clock
in our family home.

Dust piles up on the cuckoo's head

I want to clean it off.

We can't.

Grandma feels sorry for it.

The cuckoo only comes out once an hour.

Imagine how hard it worked
to collect that dust.

Now we can't clean it.

What's with that?

I gotta go.

Wow.

Wow! Wow!

THE THREE PRINCES OF SERENDIPITY.

Yamane.

Sakura! You came to
play with me at school!

She's enjoying that.

Are you okay?

Oh, no.

Sorry.

You're welcome.

- You work here part-time?
- Yes.

Ever since I was in first year

I've never been here before
So I didn't know.

That's okay.

Umbrellas go there.

You have two now.

Hana Sakurada and Sakura.

It's destiny.

Serendipity.

- Party of one coming through.
- Welcome.

Go on through.

Welcome!

Take a seat.

Banana shake.

Here.

One banana shake, please.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Thanks for the shake.

That was quick. Really quick.

That's 550 yen.

Are you two friends?

We're extraordinary friends.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Extraordinary.

What's this?

Do you live around here?

Lucky you. You'll never be late.

- What about you?
- Minami-Senri.

That's close.

So.

- See you tomorrow.
- Yeah.

Tomorrow.

Bye-bye.

- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye.

He's asleep.

It is night time.

Let him sleep.

Sweet dreams.

See you tomorrow.

Do you know

how tomorrow's sky will be?

"Today's sky is my favorite."

"I always think that."

The thing my dad used to say? Yeah.

My grandma used to say that too.

Really?

Wow. What a coincidence!

Sakurada-san.

You're strong.

Why do you think that?

I'm not strong.

My grandma died last year.

Is that so?

I guess it's no surprise.

At our age, it's normal
For your grandma to be dead.

There's nothing "normal"
About things like that.

That's why.

I was on a break from college
Until last week.

I'm weak.

The weakest.

No, you're not.

But the truth is

I didn't do anything for her.

Actually.

I hardly even saw her.

After I entered high school.

For about 5 years.

She lived in a facility near our home.

I avoided her.

Grandma was.

She'd changed and it was.

It scared me.

That's a lie.

I didn't avoid her because I was scared.

It was

I just hated it.

To her.

I didn't exist anymore.

It was.

I just couldn't bear to see it.

So I ran away.

It's sad.

You're right.

I was sad.

I was so sad, I got mad.

She left me.

She'd left long before.

She used to laugh so much.

But she stopped laughing all together.

Was she happy?

I have no idea.

She was definitely happy.

She was happy until the end.

I'm not strong either.

I asked you to brush it off to
Just think "So her dad's dead".

But when I'm at home.

I still can't say it out loud
"Dad's dead".

All I can say is "Dad's not here".

He is here.

My dad's here.

Your grandma's here too.

They both are. Definitely.

They're here.

I don't just mean
"Here in our thoughts".

As long as I'm here.

And as long as you're here.

They're here.

I'm not happy at all!

I have more reasons to be unhappy!

My dad died young
I'm a former shut-in.

I'm a latchkey kid. Grandma's boy
Zero friends!

Zero friends? Me too!

I lied

I have one.

Yamane!

I have to be happ-why!

He used to pronounce
The last letter in "happy".

It would be too sad
If his daughter wasn't "happ-why".

I have to become happ-why for my family.

But even that's too much to be honest.

Happ-why!

That TV volume thing

I'll definitely try it.

I'm hungry.

Where does Sakura go this time of day?

The owner's house.

He lives just behind.

Some days she sits outside the cafe
Before the owner gets there.

When she's feeling good
She goes to the campus like yesterday.

That was yesterday?

For some reason
It feels like ages ago.

You left your umbrella
at Cape Cod, right?

I'd totally forgotten
about it until now.

I'll bring it to the lecture on Friday.

Something wrong?

Well.

That umbrella.

Do you think it's too flashy?

Is it?

Well, that umbrella.

It's my grandma's.

Then that's a problem. Let's get it now.

No, it's okay

I have another umbrella.

Okay.

I'll take good care of it.

Thanks.

Is your other umbrella
that dark blue one?

My parasol.

Your parasol.

It might be the same as my bun.

This is my armor.

One morning, I was thinking
about quitting university.

But I put my hair in a bun
and became invincible.

Is that so?

Girls with their hair in a bun
Have plenty of friends, right?

You're right.

Is this it?

Welcome.

"Brazilian Black Be an Broth."

Probably means "Coffee".

Excuse me.

I'll have the "Ome-Let's Go-Go'

And.

"Brazilian Black Be an Broth."

Make it two of those

I'll have the "Fried Frisbee"
too, please.

Coffees.

An omelet.

And pancakes, Okay?

- Please wait a moment.
- Sure.

The owner gets to say them normally.

Do you notice anything?

"Rice Omelet"?

Rice omelets are simply
called rice omelets.

The rumors were true

I overheard some normies talking
About it during a lecture.

So I wanted to come.

Wonder why.

We can't ask yet.
We're only first-timer.

We'd have to become regulars first.

Do this again tomorrow?

To day's weather will be mainly sunny
Until the evening.

But tonight should be cloudy.

And some areas may
experience light rain.

The max temperature should
Reach 24 degrees Celsius.

That's all for today's weather report.

This tastes good.

A happ-why start to the day.

Happ-why, happ-why.

This sucks!

No, it doesn't.

Try thinking.

But I hate getting wet

you have an umbrella.

But I'll still get wet.

Umbrellas are amazing.

They're friends with both
the rain and the sun.

I was nearly asleep!

Hello, my employee and friend
Sorry about this, Sacchan.

There's no need for you to apologize.

Exactly. It's all my fault,
Princess Sacchan

I totally forgot today was a solo shift.

But you know I went solo yesterday.

You are so right.

But school starts early tomorrow

I have to be in bed before 2AM.

Allow me to take your bag, Princess.

Excuse me.

Here you go. Let's start.

What's with you?

What's wrong with your neck?

I slept on it funny. But I'll be fine.

- If you need help, let me know.
- Okay. Start cleaning.

What's with you?

Sasaki-san, I think he needs a pay cut.

Whatever. You two be friends

- I'm out. The rest is up to you.
- Okay.

- Sorry. Goodbye, sir.
- Goodbye.

Bye!

Goddess Sacchan, I really owe you one.

Considering you were late last time
You owe me two dinners now.

How about chicken cutlets
With tartar at my campus?

That's not even funny.

Two meals. Make it
Somewhere nice and relaxed.

We haven't met in public before.

No, we haven't

I think I might blush.

Don't be silly.

She's in a good mood.

Thanks.

You're lucky I had the day off
And was at home.

Normally I'd be busy with band practice.

It's hella like Three Princes of
Serendipity you betcha.

Why the sudden attempt to speak Osaka?
You have zero plans to master it.

Serendipity is a fairy tale, right?

Way to go, literature student

I only just read it
After being recommended earlier today.

Did you listen to that song?

Want to ask me what the title is again?

"Hatsukoi Crazy."

I'll definitely listen to it. Then we
can discuss the song over dinner.

You want to discuss it?
You think you can discuss music with me?

Oh that sure sounds like fun.

You are so nasty.

Just you wait.

Don't be stupid. Hurry up and go home
You need to prepare for tomorrow.

Sure thing.

- Are we regular now?
- I think we have a long way to go yet.

We can't ask yet?

The Rice Omelet Mystery.

Rainbow?

Why?

Because you suddenly yelled out.

Thump.

Swish. Chomp.

Slurp, slurp. Slurp.

Slurp. Thump.

Munch munch Thump Thump.

Thump. Thump.

Munch, munch, munch. Swish.

Glance.

Thump, thump. Thump, thump.

Speaking of rainbows
Miki's coming next month.

Thump, thump, thump Thump, thump, thump.

Why do rainbows remind you of Miki?

They symbolize joy.

Will you introduce her to me?

Would you be cool?

Might make you sad.

You would be wise not
to underestimate me.

You got a new girlfriend, hella?

No.

- No, no.
- What, what, what?

Well.

Not just yet.

For now.

Way to go! Let's go on
a double date next month.

She's not my girl-friend yet.

Hurry up and ask her out.

Let's all see a movie together.

- Settle down.
- Who is it?

The girl from work?

Of course not.

You don't get anything at all.

Yamane.

Ever maxed out the volume on your TV?

Why did you suddenly change the topic?

The rain should get here
throughout the week.

That's the end of this week's
weather forecast.

The Japanese government
reconfirmed plans.

To export next-generation fighter jets.

News from the Middle East.

An air strike hit a school
being used as a shelter.

Local media reports that 31 people
Including 16 children were killed.

Ever turned up the volume
On your TV to the max?

May be I did when I was a kid.

A friend suggested
I give it a try so I did

but it made me go "Ugh!"
So I turned it off halfway.

Yamane sounds like a kid.

It wasn't Yamane. It was a girl.

I've never heard you
talk about a girl before.

Well, it's only been a week
Since we became friends.

She's the one who told you about
The Three Princes of Serendipity, right?

How did you know?

And you like her, right?

You definitely like her.

You're reading the book
she told you about.

You tried her TV volume thing
right away too.

Everyone does what their friends ask.

If that's so.

Did you listen to "Hatsukoi Crazy"?

It really is the best.

The intro before he sings
Makes your brain buzz.

Well, I'll listen to it next time
I swear I will.

Forget about it. You won't listen to it.

After all you're not interested
in me at all.

Sacchan?

Peace!

Yay!

Hey hey hey!

Did I surprise you?

Of course you did

I mean.

What will we do now?
Look how wet we are.

Hey.

Bye.

Don't worry. If she ditches you
I'll go out with you.

Cut the weird jokes.

Seriously.

I am serious.

Do you know how I feel for you?

It's "you know".

"You know."

It's too embarrassing to say out loud.

This awkwardness is proof
It's "you know".

I've always felt that way.

I should've told you.

If you knew how I felt sooner

you might not have gotten a
crush on someone else.

Now I'm full of regret.

I'm so full of regret,
I want to disappear.

It became unbearable.

That's why I dived into the bath
I wanted to swim a way to nowhere.

My romance flopped, I belly flopped.

Wrong time for a joke?

I'm always making jokes.

That's probably another reason
Why it didn't work out.

I wish I'd told you last week.

Before you became close with her.

You're thinking
"Why is she doing this to me now?"

Sorry.

Don't hide your feelings from her.

You'll end up like me.

And I don't think you should become
too good of friends either.

If only.

If we didn't get on so well together
Things might have been different.

If only.

I know it would never happen.

But if you asked me out right now
I'd turn you down.

After all I'm the only one
in "you know".

You don't "you know" me at all.

Why do I "you know" you?

I don't really have a reason.

May be I like how you look.

Why am I telling you I
"you know" you now?

I know

I want you to learn from my mistakes.

From my broken heart.

"Broken heart" sounds a bit heavy
Think of this as a case study

I'm calling this a "case study"?

Don't become too good of friends with
someone you have a crush on.

And don't hide your feelings from them

I want you to learn that from this.

If you suddenly confess your feelings.

They'll be more surprised
than anything else.

Like you right now.
You're surprised, right?

So.

Use me as a textbook.

Think of me as a bad example.

Don't confess your feelings like this.

Don't talk so much when you confess.

Get to the point.

Just tell her those words.

But, you know.

It's hard to say those words
without a warm-up.

After all

those words are heavy, and embarrassing

I'll try changing the pronunciation.

Know how I feel for you?

I lov-ee you.

Now you know, right?

But, like.

That was a creepy way to say it.

But, like... Did you really
not notice how I felt?

You can be so dull sometimes.

Pisses me off.

I am sorry.

Forget that one.

Tell me when you ask her out

I'll peek in and check on you
What do you think?

No thanks?

Anyways! It's time for your
textbook to leave.

You're thinking "If she leaves now
It'll be so awkward next time".

Don't worry. I'll be totally normal.

And you're thinking
"At least let me say something".

But you don't know what to say.

You're drifting off somewhere else.

After all, you were just watching
a moth on the streetlight.

I'm not angry.

But I.

I know you're not
interested in me at all.

I mean.

Do you even know my name?

Do you know why they call me "Sacchan"?

I know your name.

Toru. It means "all-the-way" right?

I asked you one time
"What's your full name?"

You told me "Toru Konishi".

But.

You never asked me back

I just remembered

I knew right then
You weren't interested in me at all.

Sorry. I really am so sad.

You don't have to listen to
"Hatsukoi Crazy" anymore.

It would be embarrassing if you did.

Even though it's not my song.

When you think about it.

I could've just played it
for you on my phone.

I just...

I just wanted you to hear it and
think of me when I wasn't there.

Don't worry
I don't love you anymore.

Sorry I fell in love with you.

I said "love".

May be I already said it a few times.

It doesn't matter.

I guess it was fun
being in love with you

I went to sleep in a good mood.

You don't have to take
me out to dinner either.

You never mentioned a specific date
So I knew it wouldn't happen anyway.

Two dinners? Don't make
fake promises like that.

And do you remember how you said
since we've only met at work.

You might blush if you saw me in public
or something like that.

Don't make a girl happy
with words like that!

I really hate being like this

I'm sorry.

You can leave first, okay?

Don't worry. I'll be totally normal
next time we meet.

Zero awkwardness. Trust me.

But I might disappear for a while.

Luckily, I'll be busy with the band.

Luckily?

Anyway.

I'll leave first.

Bye-bye.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

I forgot to bring your umbrella again.

Well, it's sunny today

I'll have a "Crois sunny".

I'll have a "Brazilian Black
Be an Broth".

And a "Rice Omelet".

You want a coffee, a croissant.

And a rice omelet?

Actually, I'll have a "Crois-sunny".

Okay, a croissant for you.
Coming right up.

I can't do it. I felt bad
Like we were making fun of him.

Here you go.

Why is your rice omelet
the only one written normally?

I don't like making rice omelets.

I see.

Someone else was supposed
to make the rice omelets.

But they're not here anymore.

I don't want people
ordering rice omelets, do I?

Because I don't like making them.

So I expanded the menu
with a bunch of other dishes.

And I made them stand out
more than rice omelets.

So, we have this.

That's why it ended up like this.

The croissants aren't too bad.

Enjoy your food.

Sure.

- Let's eat.
- Let's eat.

Nope.

There's a chance that
if we ask too much.

We might open up the wounds of
an incredibly sad memory.

But now, it's like we're giggling at him
from our own safe place

I think that's worse.

Next time, I'll order a rice omelet

I'll be prepared.

Prepared?

Prepared to say with him. That's sad.

Wanna go again for lunch?

Today? Again?

He's probably busy at lunch
We might be a nuisance.

Push it back to 2 o'clock?

Then I'll see you
at the main entrance at 2.

Coming up " Law-Lit Hill?

I have to buy a notebook at the co-op.

I see.

See you later.

See you later.

He's in a good mood.

Doesn't even have his parasol.

Stop exporting next-generation
fighter jets!

Time to eat

- I want ramen.
- Nah, I want a beef bowl.

Come on, Sakura.

Dinnertime.

- I get self-conscious about these.
- About what?

- My wrinkles.
- Really?

- He stares at them all the time.
- No way.

- He's so creepy.
- Ugh.

- What's his problem?
- I wonder.

He could've been staring
at them for months.

From underneath his parasol.

He uses a parasol.

We had breakfast together. Three times.

On the third time
He invited me to lunch too.

Huh?

To politely decline I said
"Why don't we do it later?"

But he's so thick, he didn't get it.

He said "That sounds great".

What a clinger!

I started freaking out
So I fled to the co-op.

But I don't know his number
So to turn him down

I have to see that face of
his at least once more.

Creepy.

Creepy

I'Il have to ghost him.

I can't take the same lectures

I'll have to repeat.

But he knows this place!

The first time he came
It was out of the blue.

Maybe he was stalking me

I put a bandage on him. What a creep!

I told him I had no friends
Why can't he take a hint?

When you have zero friends
It means you need zero friends.

But he just wouldn't take the hint.

Get lost.

If you won't get lost, then I will.

This is rare.
Sacchan's late for her shift.

She has a human side to her too.

She disappeared.

Don't say that.

Yeah, right

I mean, sorry.

Can you cope by yourself?

Yes, I'll be fine. I can do it myself.

Okay.

Then I'll be off

I'm counting on you.

Let's hella bring back
"Konishi Theater Night"!

What, what, what's this?

Huh?

I'm turning up the volume to the max.

It's past midnight.

You're an idiot

I'm not an idiot.

What's hella with you dude?

Cut that out.

Speaking weirdly so you can be unique.

Something happen with the
solo soba noodles girl?

What's hella wrong?

Yesterday you looked so happy
Going up Law-Lit Hill.

Today you didn't even come.

Did you have a fight?

You're creepy.

You sneak around keeping eyes on me?

I saw you by chance.

You looked like a man hella in love.

It's the face I have when I'm with Miki.

I have to ask.

Does Miki even exist?

- That's disrespectful to her.
- Shut up!

What did I do?

- I'm about to lose it.
- Then lose it.

Then get lost.

Everyone's leaving me, one by one.

You can get lost too!

Fine.

I'm going.

I keep saying I'm bored.

But I have so many things to do

I had a few people
I could call my friends.

But I keep losing more day by day

I'm slowly getting better.

At being all alone.

It feels like.

Society is.

Saying goodbye to me

I want to say.

To the whole world

I wonder what happened to Sacchan.

Did I do something to offend her?

What do you think? Heard anything?

Maybe it's time to look for someone new.

Since I left my parents.

I learned what they really mean.

I'll come see you.

That's what I say.

But two years have already passed.

It's easier being alone.

That's the Law Faculty
And that's the Literature Faculty.

So this is hella "Law-Lit Hill".

- Hella "Law-Lit Hill"
- Hella yeah.

What's wrong?

Why did you stop?

- It ain't hella nothing.
- Ain't hella nothing.

Ain't hella nothing.

I want to say.

To the whole world.

Farewell from me.

It feels like

I am making society say goodbye to me

I want to say.

To the whole world.

Farewell from me.

Thanks for coming.

Welcome.

Rice Omelet, please.

Coming up.

Here you go.

Your rice omelet.

Sorry, but I warned you
I don't make it well.

Thank you.

It's good.

You do make it well.

You think that's a good rice omelet?

There's someone who makes them
a whole lot better than that.

There was.

A long time ago.

That's why I'll never like making them

3 o'clock news.

Firstly from the Middle East.

A refugee camp was hit by an air strike.

After midnight on the 8th local time.

Local media reports that
45 people were killed.

Including children.

Including children.

And a ceasefire have reached a dead end.

It's wrong.

There will be no progress.

Until common ground can be found.

Sakura.

What do you want?

Konishi?

Yamane! It's been a while.

I'm on Law-Lit Hil.

Third period is about to start.

Me too.

Let's go to the cafeteria.

Sakura's taking a walk by herself.

What's up, Sakura?

What class did you have today?

Wait up.

Let's go together.

Sakura's coming through.

I just ate a rice omelet
But I can still eat more.

This is my second cup of noodles
But I can still eat too.

Yamane.

I'm sorry.

It took me a month and
a half to say sorry.

We're hell a cool.

We're like the "Statue of Friends".

We are.

Other way around.

How stupid.

- You took Miki around the campus.
- I did.

We passed each other.

It was a shame I couldn't introduce you.

You two looked happ-why.

"Happ-why"?

This very moment
There are children living in fear.

- Stop the genocide!
- Don't kill anyone!

The more weapons are provided
The more distant peace becomes.

- That's right!
- Stop the genocide!

We must think about what we can do

I want to walk with them.

Me too.

Thank you.

Don't kill anyone!

- Kahosan.
- Hi, Konishi.

Nice to meet you.

I'm Konishi.

"I'm Shizuku."

She couldn't fall asleep
But now she's finally settled.

When she cries at night
you can hear her here, right?

I can.

Dad's waiting for you.

Hello, sir.

I just met Shizuku.

You're a grandfather.

Actually

we have to talk about Sacchan.

This is gonna be tough to say.

You contacted her?

No.

I got a phone call this morning.

Well.

You see.

It's all my fault.

The truth is, well.

She told me she had feelings for me.

She said she'd disappear for a bit
Then come back like normal.

I think she feels awkward

I should've been more
considerate with the shifts.

- She's a great friend.
- Shut up!

She's not just "great".

Sacchan's the best there is!

I knew it.

No matter what, she'd never quit
without saying something.

Why?

Why didn't I contact her straight away?

You see.

Sacchan is.

She's dead.

She's dead! Sacchan's dead!

When?

More than a month ago.

Because I.

Hey!

Say one more word

I'll never forgive you.

Don't get cocky!

- Because of me.
- Shut up stupid brat.

She said it was a traffic accident.

Her mom rang me this morning.

She said "Sorry I took so long".

I should've rang her.

Right?

She lost her daughter!

Why did I make her
tell me "My daughter died"?

Damn it!

So

tomorrow at 1 o'clock.

Let's go pay our respect.

Welcome.

Thank you. Got your student ID?

Good girl.

You're a good girl.

I'm Sasaki from Shi Chi Fuku Hot Bath.

Mother told me you were coming.

Thanks for coming for my little sister.

Not now!

You're the co-worker
Saki was talking about?

No way.

I thought I was the same age as Sacchan.

You are

I stopped going to school in high school
So I'm a year behind.

I should be a year older than you.

Konishi-san, that hair.

Is it Sakura's?

Don't.

It's fine as it is.

Konishi-san, your umbrella.

It's been here the whole time.

If I'd given it to Saki

I could've returned it sooner.

How strange.

But changing something so trivial

wouldn't make any difference
to our lives.

This way please.

Sacchan!

I'm sorry!

I really am sorry!

Miss.

I am truly sorry for your loss.

No!

This sucks.

No.

No, no!

This sucks.

DEAR SAKI.

It's a letter from our father.

Apparently he wrote it for her
to read when she got married.

Mom put it there saying
"She'll never read this".

That means that there is
probably a letter for me too.

My dad thought we were
going to get married?

Lucky him.

What am I babbling on about?

I thought about reading it out for her.

Please read it.

I will.

Dear Saki.

It's been a while.

Dad is here.

Being able to prepare for death
is a wonderful thing.

It enabled me to write this letter.

Saki, congratulations on your wedding
Hello, Little Miss Sacchan.

As I write this,
you're still only 8 years old.

- Hey, what about me?
- You, Hana?

Hey, why say that?

- Why?
- Why are you so super noisy?

- Call me a genius.
- Genius?

- You are such a...
- Genius.

Genius!

You're such a noisy little girl!
- Why?

- Hey!
- Why are you such a noisy little girl?

Hold on a moment.

This is rough.

Read on.

You're still only 8 years old.

And I can't imagine it at all.

When you're with the person next to you
Are you happ-why?

Are you in

lov-e e?

My dad's own language.

It means "love".

If you are incredibly happ-why.

And feel completely in lov-ee.

Then that's where you belong.

Today's sky is my favorite.

May you think that every single day.

How is today's sky?

Dad died due to an illness.

Saki died in an accident.

Which do you think is better?

Konishi-san?

An illness.

Because it gives you time
to prepare, right?

But it was awful in the end with my dad.

He was in so much pain
So thin. It was awful.

But you say dying of
an illness is better?

Saki was the picture of health
until the very end.

You still say dying
of an illness is better?

What was I trying to say?

You're looking for something
positive about Saki's death.

You're right.

Is that wrong?

Woof.

Sakura?

Woof.

Sakura.

So you're ticklish, Sakura?

Konishi-san, you're not.

You're not being Sakura anymore.

Sacchan's dead?

Yeah.

That day.

It was that day?

That day.

After I said goodbye to you.

I got a call from my mom.

In the beginning
for no particular reason

I thought everything was
going to be okay.

But as I headed home, I got the feeling
things definitely weren't okay.

It became unbearable
and when I finally got home.

I could see how Mom had
rushed out of the house.

Her half-finished tea on the table
was so undeniably real, and scary.

I had no idea when Mom would be back.

And I was hungry, so I tried
eating the yogurt in the fridge.

But I couldn't swallow it.

I spat it out in the sink

I poured the rest down the sink too

I thought Mom would get angry
So I made it look like I'd eaten it all.

I had no idea what I should do.

I went to my room and got in bed.

Before I knew it, I was asleep.

When I woke, it was 7 PM.

I thought "Wow, I can sleep
at a time like this?"

When I went to the living room
It was full of relatives.

The moment they saw my face
They burst into tears.

I thought Wow, This is real bad.

Then I heard footsteps
I knew it was Mom

I didn't want to hear the news
so I tried to hide.

But my body wouldn't move.

So I gave up had to hear.

But, you know.

I knew it from the start.

Saki's not alive anymore.

I knew the whole time.

Then Mom.

She came and stood before me
and said one thing.

Sacchan is dead.

Then I started crying again
I cried because I felt sorry for her.

For me, my little sister was dead.

For her her daughter was dead.

Now she had to tell her daughter
the other one was dead.

How must that feel?

I just felt so sorry for her.

But Mom didn't cry at all.

She said Saki was waiting
at the traffic lights.

A truck had turned the corner.

Something about the angle of the tires.

But apparently she'd only
hit the wrong part of her head.

She still looks like Saki.

She looks like she's asleep.

"Don't worry" Mom tried to comfort me.

The whole time
My relatives were crying so loud.

How could they be as sad as Mom and me?

It annoyed me to the core.

Then before I could get
my head around anything.

Morning came.

Saki came back before lunch.

It was such a thin coffin.

I thought "This is a real"
Silent Homecoming

I was in a weird state.

The funeral director opened the lid.

Saki was laying there.

It seemed so cramped

I cried and cried.

I thought I'd break my lungs.

But Mom didn't cry once.

She must've already cried herself dry.

That's why she didn't cry

I thought I should cry myself dry too

I cried all I could, and then.

Mom went into the kitchen.

She started crying louder than anyone.

I started crying and crying again.

Crying too much really hurts

I never knew that.

It felt like I'd been punched
on the insides.

A month and a half has passed.

I don't cry as often as before.

But I cry for longer now.

We really do only get one life.

I knew but I didn't really know.

You and I were going
to meet early that morning

to go to that cafe.

So, I woke up earlier than normal

I found Saki asleep on the veranda.

She was in the hammock from the garden.

When I asked why
she said "I'm depressed".

When you're feeling down
Iook up at the night sky.

Eventually, it will brighten up.

That's what Dad said, right?

Then Saki stood up and said.

Now the sky and I are both brighter.

- Thanks, Dad.
- Peace.

I haven't done anything
for the past month and a half.

Nothing at all.

I just sit around in a daze all day.

Oh, I cut my hair.

I don't need a bun anymore
Who cares?

I went to the campus once.

It was sunny, which annoyed me.

I cranked up the sound of rain
on my headphones.

Why are these creeps so carefree
enjoying their youth?

You should all get soaked.

Aren't you scared of loud sounds?

I overcame it.

With ease.

There was a song Sacchan
told me to listen to.

Do you know it? It's by Spitz.

Hatsukoi Crazy?

That's it.

She said the intro
makes your brain buzz.

READING DISC.

I like this sound.

Me too.

I thought I knew this old town.

Now it's shining bright
for a fool like me.

Thanks to you,
it's bloomed before my eyes.

My future.

The world is full of dreams
but on the other side

life is full of desperate soliloquies.

But now those days are
like a forgotten ice cream.

They've melted away.

Winding our way through the crowd.

A way to our secret place

I will go with you.

You don't have to listen to
"Hatsukoi Crazy" anymore.

It would be embarrassing if you did.

Even though it's not my song.

I just.

I just wanted you to hear it.

And think of me when
I wasn't there.

Don't worry
I don't love you anymore.

Sorry I fell in love with you.

I mean.

Do you even know my name?

Do you know why they call me "Sacchan"?

Sakurada.

Saki.

All the way up.

I thought I knew this old town.

Now it's shining bright
for a fool like me.

Thanks to you,
it's bloomed before my eyes.

My future.

Your wrinkles.

Can I touch them?

The first time I saw you

you couldn't open the door
and you laughed

I noticed you had soft wrinkles

I thought I want to touch them.

Then you were eating soba noodles alone

I thought, She's tough.

But it was only because
you had a bun.

Your bun was like my parasol
It was your shield.

It was.

Everything was a surprise.

Sakurada-san, when you laugh
you get wrinkles.

That's why I want to always be next to
you making you laugh

I want us to become an
inseparable couple.

I really "you know" you.

I'm sure I'd be so good at
"you know"-ing you.

I don't know why
I "you know" you so much.

Oh, she was right.

It is too embarrassing to say.

Even though you can't hear
a word I'm saying.

But it's still too embarrassing to say.

What a word.

Okay, I'll do something more
embarrassing than saying that word.

Don't be shocked.

Thank you.

They really were super soft.

I want to live the rest
of my life with you.

And your wrinkles.

I want to spend months together
years together.

To be together for longer
than we've been apart.

You might have more wrinkles by then

I'll love them too.

I'll let you clean our cuckoo clock.

But when you actually see it
you'll say "I can't. Let's leave it"

I know you will.

That's how much our values match up.

I know I shouldn't say this
in front of Sacchan.

Sacchan said she'd peek in
and keep check on me.

But that's wrong.

And I don't mind

I'll go through life knowing
I've hurt somebody

I'll go through life feeling like
the lowest of the low.

It's just like she said.

You need to talk a lot to
reach that word.

Whatever happens

I want to walk with you at dusk

I want the sun to set on our backs

I want to watch our shadows.

And argue whose is longer.

When we get jobs

I want to meet up after work
and go out for dinner

I want to compare our bags
and see which is heavier.

Will you say, "What a normie"?

Say what you like.

I'd be happy to spend my whole life
telling you how I feel.

I lov-e e you.

" Lov-e e" means

"love" right?

I totally suck.

I'm going to say the worst thing ever.

I love you
