I was so close...

to grasping what I really cared for.

But that suddenly...

crumbled before my eyes.

Something so close to me...

that seemed a part of my everyday life...

unexpectedly began...

to shine brightly.

However...

even that...

suddenly disappeared...

from my sight.

Time simply passes.

I still cannot tell how I truly feel.

Iori.

Itsuki.

Who...

do I really love?

Hey, Nami!

You brought me chocolate, didn't you?

I shall humbly accept it now.

-I have nothing for you, idiot. -What?

-Morisaki. -Nothing here.

Seriously?

-Are you for real? -What an idiot.

Valentine's day?

Seto.

What?

Yes?

What is it?

Here.

Right. I need to take attendance.

But...

even if this were chocolate...

would I really be happy?

Listen.

What is it?

Your attitude toward Yoshizuki...

is right back where you were a year ago.

You need to seal the deal soon.

Shut up.

Teratani.

Here.

No way.

For me?

Of course not.

-It's for Seto. -What is that?

Give it to him yourself.

I feel...

a little embarrassed.

Don't misunderstand.

This is for all of his help.

Nothing more.

I don't care.

But give it to him yourself.

But...

I don't know where he is.

He is hanging out with Koshinae over there.

Thank you.

Good luck.

Why have you been so cold to Yoshizuki recently?

If something happened, you can tell me.

All of these guys...

keep trying to bring me back to Iori.

Seto.

Listen.

Did I ever say...

that I liked Yoshizuki?

You just assumed that.

-But... -Let me be clear.

I...

don't like Yoshizuki like that.

Quit sticking your nose in my business.

Just leave it alone.

Why would you lie like that?

In Kyoto, you went...

with Yoshizuki to buy that enmusubicchi.

That is...

a charm for lovers.

I know that.

Well.

I was asked...

to buy that.

Right? Yoshizuki?

What? Is Yoshizuki there?

That was...

for Itsuki.

I didn't know that.

But...

figured that.

Yoshizuki.

Did you need to speak to Seto?

It's nothing.

Chase after her.

Seto.

If I am not compelled...

to run after her, that can only mean one thing.

So that's how it is.

I see.

The person who I need most right now...

is not Iori.

Itsuki.

Itsuki?

Wait! Wait!

Why are you running away?

You're causing a scene! Let go of me!

Hey.

How long will you be busy working?

Forever.

Quit screwing around.

When will you come back?

I'm not coming back.

Why not?

I hate you.

What?

I hate guys who can't...

read girl's feelings.

Is that me?

I like adult men...

who can properly lead a woman.

I found that person.

So I won't see you again!

What?

Idiot!

Listen to me!

I gave up on Iori!

I decided to stay by your side.

Don't run away from me.

"I"s"

"Episode Five -Different Smiles"

Hi.

Mr Takezawa. Are you married?

Do you have a girlfriend?

-I do not. -Mr Takezawa.

Is this your first time teaching?

Mr Takezawa?

-Please look at my picture. -Please.

You did very well.

Who is that guy?

He is the substitute teacher for Mr Kobayashi.

He is not an art teacher, but...

he is a modeller.

-Modeller? -Yes.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

Well, Icchan? My teacher is pretty hot, right?

Itsuki?

What is it?

Come on.

Why are you here?

I am working.

I am helping my teacher.

I'm busy. I need to go.

Where are you living?

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Are you staying...

with that Takezawa guy?

It doesn't matter to you.

Of course it does.

Icchan.

I don't need your sympathy.

That's just...

temporary.

What?

-That's not it. -Let me ask you this.

Do you hate Iori?

Have you forgotten her?

No good.

You didn't answer immediately.

You...

cannot truly give up on Iori.

Be honest with yourself.

Hey.

Hey!

Wait!

Itsuki.

Hello. I am Takezawa.

Well then.

In any case...

let's all get along.

I want to enjoy our time together...

without any sort of barriers.

I called a model here today.

You will be drawing portraits.

Teacher!

Do you think age differences matter in love?

What's this? Are you going after him?

Well.

That question is irrelevant to class.

It's research to prevent any walls.

Well.

I do believe that age differences don't matter in love.

Great!

So you would date a high schooler.

I didn't say that.

He's so cool!

Itsuki?

Is she going...

to be a nude model?

I am Itsuki Akiba.

I help Mr Takezawa.

Nice to meet you all.

-Nice to meet you! -Is she nude?

Is she not wearing clothes?

I can't believe this is happening.

What is the meaning of this?

I...

have the same question.

The model cancelled because she is sick.

She called before.

So...

I'll do it.

Are we all ready?

-Here it comes. -All right.

Wait, Itsuki.

Aren't you embarrassed?

Not really.

In the art world...

nude modelling is quite common.

It isn't sexual.

Get out of the way, Seto.

She said that she wants to do it.

Won't you get in trouble worrying about other girls...

-in front of Yoshizuki? -What are you saying?

Itsuki.

That is enough of your jokes.

Sit down.

What?

Just sit.

Turn around.

I can see the strap of your swimsuit.

-Swimsuit? -Really?

-Come on. -That's not fair.

-Why the swimsuit? -That stinks.

-I wanted to see it. -Seriously?

So she isn't nude.

I'm glad.

But I'm sad.

Furthermore.

I didn't ask you to model.

I wanted you...

to give everyone advice.

Well then.

Let's change the motif for today.

Please create your left hand with clay.

Look at it and create what you feel.

Yes.

Move your seats back.

Yes.

Please change.

Yes.

Please try to concentrate...

more on these joints.

Not bad.

Try to focus on your palm.

-It should be lighter. -Right.

I can't do this!

-Try moving your fingers. -Okay.

-That's amazing. -I know, right?

Show me.

-This is great. -Really great.

-Isn't this amazing? -Seriously.

It's so different.

-Wow. -That's amazing.

-That's really amazing. -It's so realistic.

It was Seto, wasn't it?

It seemed that...

you wanted to say something about Itsuki to me.

You were always glaring at me like that.

Why Itsuki?

There have to be a lot of potential apprentices.

Why did you bring her?

I don't have apprentices.

That is a policy of mine.

Then why Itsuki?

I...

don't think of her as an apprentice.

What?

Don't you know?

Her models have been used in Hollywood films.

To be blunt, she is a genius.

When we work together...

I feel inspired.

Mr Takezawa. Mr Takezawa.

Please come immediately to the teacher's room.

Mr Takezawa. Mr Takezawa.

Please come immediately to the teacher's room.

Takezawa.

What do you think of Itsuki?

I am sure...

-she will become a great artist. -I don't mean that.

I like her.

Ichitaka!

Let's go to karaoke after school.

It is Itsuki's welcome party.

-No. -See you then!

I threw...

my shoes...

and ran away.

We are not...

in love...

but we shared the same season together.

While the clock won't turn back...

we laughed together.

We are blown...

by the wind!

Yesterday!

-Yay! -Yay!

-Do it again! -One more time!

Hello!

-She's here! -She's here!

Sorry for being late.

Sorry.

It is so cold out.

-Let me order you something. -Thank you.

Itsuki. What do you want?

-Orange juice. -Orange juice?

Koshinae. Orange juice.

Hey. Hey. Hey.

Listen.

Are you really living with Mr Takezawa?

That's right.

-Seriously? -But sadly...

there is nothing going on.

We are just living together like normal.

He really is an adult.

But...

he is a man too.

He might make a move.

-That seems likely. -I don't think so.

He wouldn't waste his time with a kid like me.

Quit your silly giggling.

You're all thinking that too, right?

You're such an idiot.

Since we're all here, let's sing karaoke.

-Right. -Choose a song.

Go ahead, Itsuki.

What? Me?

-Here. -What should I sing?

Puffy. Sing Puffy.

I don't feel like singing Puffy today.

What should I choose?

Do whatever you want.

What is with him?

Right.

I tried to sing Puffy before.

But he told her to stop...

since you like to sing Puffy.

He said you were really good at singing their songs.

Really?

Seto.

You haven't been yourself recently.

You have a lot of great qualities.

Don't worry about other people.

Good luck.

Iori.

She's right.

I am me.

There is no point in me trying to be someone else.

Hey.

What is it? Did something good happen?

No. Nothing.

Doesn't Itsuki look even cuter now?

During art class today...

she seemed to shine.

I feel for her again.

Really?

Sorry.

Oh no.

I need to tell Teratani...

how I feel too.

The one I truly love...

is Itsuki.

I know you like her too.

I'm sorry.

How could you.

Just kidding.

That isn't like me.

I'm a cool guy, after all.

Teratani.

After all...

I know that Itsuki doesn't like me.

I pick friendship.

But...

if you make her cry...

you know what I'll do to you, right?

No.

I can't make her cry.

We're not even dating.

-I don't think she likes me. -Idiot.

Go give it your all.

Ask her out right now.

-Okay. -Go. Find her.

Get out of here.

I'm relieved.

I thought that might ruin our friendship.

He didn't even bring up Iori.

He's really a good guy.

Itsuki?

Itsuki!

Hey.

I want...

for us to have a proper talk.

-So... -No way.

I see.

I'll try again another time.

Just kidding.

Sounds good.

What? What's that?

What is that? Upset?

No.

I just didn't think this would go so easily.

I want to ask you too.

Did something good happen?

What?

You seem more yourself today.

That's a good thing.

Should we pick a time?

Right.

I want to...

erase your trauma.

It hurts.

I can't give up on you.

It means that I like you.

My feelings...

finally caught up with Itsuki's.

Did something good happen, Seto?

What?

Not really.

Why?

It is all over your face.

You are so easy to read.

Seto.

Yoshizuki.

Do you two have a minute?

Let me introduce you. This is Mori.

We have known each other since junior high.

Hello.

Hello.

In his school newspaper...

he introduces a lovely female high school student each month.

So...

he wants to feature Yoshizuki next.

Please...

agree to a photo shoot.

Well.

It should be fine.

He is Koshinae's friend.

Right.

That's fine.

I'm glad.

Thank you so much.

He wants to shoot it next Saturday.

Does that work for you?

I can do it on Saturday.

I will be there too.

Thank you.

Would you come too?

Sorry.

I have important plans.

I can't come.

I see.

-This all worked out. -Yes. Thank you.

-Thank you. -Thank you.

-Excuse me. -Thank you.

-I look forward to Saturday. -Me too.

He's trying too hard.

This way.

Here.

Come in.

Sorry.

This isn't anything fancy.

Is this where you have photo shoots?

Sorry.

Let me see how preparations are going.

We are all ready.

Come this way.

This way.

Yes.

Oh no. I'm going to be late.

Hello? This is Seto.

Seto? This is Koshinae.

Right.

What is it?

Listen.

I'm at Iori's photo shoot.

Could you come?

What? Why?

Something seems odd.

Koshinae?

Sorry I'm late.

Why are you so late?

-You were late before too. -Forgive me.

The one who is trying too hard...

might be me.

Koshinae?

Yoshizuki!

Koshinae. I'm so sorry. Sorry.

Shut up.

Do you remember...

last year?

You really outdid yourself.

You changed under your uniform.

You found my hidden camera.

Thanks to you...

I had to stop going to school.

How will you repay me?

You destroyed my life.

Something seems odd.

Stop!

This is compensation for my pain and suffering.

Cheap, right?

Where are you looking?

What?

Were you so excited to see me?

No. Not really.

Come on.

You're late. Really late.

Sorry. I overslept.

Unbelievable.

How could you be late for our date?

I was so excited I couldn't sleep.

You're lying.

I am sorry for the wait.

Here you are.

Please call me when you have decided.

Listen to this.

During this art class for the third year students...

we were making faces out of clay.

They were supposed to look like people.

But everyone started messing around.

So...

it became a contest to make the weirdest face.

First things first.

Shall we get rid...

of that uniform?

Stop.

What's wrong?

Try to enjoy yourself too.

What is with that look?

Listen.

You're an actress, right?

Act like you enjoy this.

I am not a violent person.

I never thought I would need to use this.

But my grandfather taught me martial arts.

I shall use those skills today.

Are you an idiot?

Do you see how many of us are here?

I won't...

hold back.

I made a really weird one.

Icchan. Are you listening?

What? I'm listening.

So?

What was it again?

Mori. Run away.

Icchan.

You said...

you wanted to meet to talk about something.

Right.

Well? What is it?

Listen. Itsuki.

What?

Koshinae. You are amazing.

What's so amazing?

I can do that too.

Stop!

See?

Stop. Stop.

You are lucky in many ways.

You get to watch me and that girl's love scene.

Take this!

You!

-Run! -Run!

Let's go.

Yoshizuki!

Are you okay?

Hey!

She's okay.

She just passed out.

Koshinae. What is this?

If you hadn't come, she would have been irreparably scarred.

Didn't you have a big date today?

Listen. Itsuki.

What?

Before I left...

a friend of mine called me.

He is nearby.

It seems...

that he is in trouble.

He wanted me to come to him.

It is Iori's photo shoot, right?

What?

Sorry.

I happened to overhear about it before.

Well? What happened?

What?

I don't know.

You should go.

It's nearby, right?

I'll wait for you.

You've been thinking about that, haven't you?

I see.

Sorry. Wait for me a bit.

She'll wake up soon.

You can go.

I see.

I'll go then. She's waiting for me.

What?

Right.

Good luck on the date.

Thanks.

Right.

Don't tell her I came.

What?

I didn't do anything to help.

I seem so dumb running around like this.

Okay?

Please.

Fine.

Later.

I didn't need to worry so much.

Itsuki understood.

I didn't need to worry.

In any case...

I'm glad that Iori was okay.

Itsuki?

Sorry. Sorry.

I was making a call.

That was quick.

Right.

Yes.

I was shocked.

I had no idea...

that Koshinae was so tough.

I didn't even need to go.

What?

It's fine.

You're amazing.

Your smile is so different.

I like you even more now.

What is that all of a sudden?

But that is amazing.

It's like a bad omen.

You must have felt that.

When it comes to Iori...

you have superpowers.

What are you saying?

I would have done the same thing for you.

I'm sure you would.

You are...

really kind.

Speaking of which...

could you listen to what I have to say?

What is it?

My teacher...

received a request from a Hollywood studio.

What?

It's a huge project.

He asked me to assist him on it.

-He called me just now. -Itsuki.

Wait.

Listen to me first.

Let's...

be together.

Don't see other guys.

Stay with me.

Icchan.

Please listen to me until the end.

When you left before...

Takezawa called me.

He asked me whether I wanted to participate.

The team needed an answer quickly.

And?

I said yes.

You misunderstood.

You think that...

I chose Iori because I left before. Right?

No.

That doesn't matter.

Then why?

I saw your face...

when you left.

I realised something then.

I realised that I really do love you.

I love that look.

I love the Icchan that can make...

that expression.

But unfortunately...

I love the Icchan that loves Iori.

That is the natural Icchan.

I love that Icchan.

You might not realise this...

but you are trying really hard.

When it comes to me...

you get this wrinkle on your forehead.

Just accept it.

For you...

Iori is the only one.

You need her.

Right after that day...

Itsuki disappeared...

from before me.
