Episode 16: Business Trip

The blue sky.

The white clouds.

The endless ocean.

This is my last summer vacation as an elementary schooler.

And the end of that summer...

Let's get started (Woah yeah)

I can't believe I'm spending it with a bunch of old guys.

Don't worry (Woah yeah)

We understand (Woah yeah)

It doesn't matter if you had come to a standstill

All of you shut up!

You're being way too careless! Are you children?!

And you should be acting more childish!

We're going to a summer fireworks festival on the beach! I love fireworks!

You're all just here with me! Since you're only appearing at this event because of me!

You need to act more grown up!

He says, "but you passed on an audition for an historical drama to come."

Huh? But that was a huge opportunity!

Well... this event requested me, so...

Ah... We were supposed to turn right back there.

Leave it ta me!

'Ere we go!

Wah! Yamanaka-san puked!

Fireworks Festival

We still have five hours before rehearsal.

Where's Yamanaka-san?

He has a meeting.

Despite the fact he just threw up.

You're curious about that audition, aren't you?

I'm not!

If you chose the one you wanted to do, then it's fine.

I did.

So... What are we going to do for 5 hours?

Well, this is what Yamanaka-san told me, but...

Yay! A private beach!

This is great!

Ah? Why are you hiding it?

Yamanaka-san let you borrow it so you're being rude!

But I never thought he'd give me this kind of swimsuit!

It's your own fault for not bringing your own, Sanada-san!

Wah!

Who're you?!

Go away!

What if I get a sunburn?!

Huh...?

It's StoLove!

Why are they here?

Oh?

It's the Eternal Boys!

And Ukita Ren-san, too!

I'm Azuma from StoLove!

Are you here for an event?

We're filming a music video so-

Ohhh, I see.

We won't bother you so go ahead and enjoy yourselves.

Okay! Thank you very much!

Gah! He's so bright!

Why's there only one fer us?!

Why don't you all go for a swim?

Why? You just need to move over!

Ah! Don't hog the cuttlefish!

Agh! Just shut up!

Let's go ask them to give us one!

Ren-kun, wait!

Umm...

What is it?

I'm sorry!

It's just that we only have one umbrella for the six of us,

so we were wondering if you would be so kind as to give us one...

Of course!

He's so nice!

Hold on, Sou-chan!

No! No! No!

If you just hand it over so easily,

then our happy encounter with them on the beach will be over in just an instant!

Huh?

I'm Lin Junjie!

In my home country of Taiwan,

when idols want beach umbrellas, they need to have a fierce competition and ring that winning bell first!

Isn't that right?

Dig me out before you start competing. I'm hot.

Don't just say things to suit the outcome you want! You need to apologize to them and the Taiwaneese people, Lin!

Umm... Nevermi-...

A competition?!

Did I just hear you say competition!?

That's a great swimsuit!

Don't look at it!

I'm in! I accept your challenge!

Yes! I've been wanting to hang out with the Eternal Boys.

Sounds fun. We're gonna win this!

Wait!

Why are you doing something you know you're going to lose?

Stop wasting your time. It's pointless.

You can't know that unless you try!

Ah...

I know you will!

Hey, you guys say somth-...

Ah!

Sounds good to me!

I'll show ya how good I am!

Well I guess it can't be helped.

I'll be the commentator.

Why!?

The rules are simple.

This well be a 3 runner relay race from the starting point to this lighthouse.

The winner will be the team who gets their Eternal Light Baton to the goal first.

I'm your commentator, Ishida.

The ones not participating are: Sanada-san, who withdrew because he's ashamed of his swimsuit,

and the top actor from our production company, Ukita Ren-kun.

Who exactly are you commenting for?

Oh! It seems the race is about to begin!

The starting signal is being given by Kagurazaka-san, the kind and mysterious boy from StoLove!

On your marks!

And we're off!

As expected, the runner Odagiri is off to a perfect start!

He's running so hard it's almost like he has an engine!

On the other team, the runner Imagawa...

Oh my! He's kicking so strong! You can really feel the power!

And yet...

He's barely moving! He's barely moving forward at all!

Even though he's pushing so hard...

I told you this was pointless.

Ah! What a smooth baton pass!

And the leader of StoLove, Azuma, is running as gracefully as a young foal!

As for the Eternal Boys, the baton is now being passed to the new member Nicolai!

Amazing! His stride is so wide it should be illegal!

But won't this gap still be hard to close?

Huh?!

Nicolai has made a surprising move!

He's daring to swim butterfly! He's using the ocean and the summer to his advantage!

Is that allowed?

Everything is allowed in this race!

The last runner for Eternal Boys is the former J-Leaguer, Asai!

Huh?

Former J-Leaguer?

Oh. So that's why you thought you could win.

I'm bored now.

Oh no! What happened to the final runner?

Let's go in for a closer look!

My stomach... it hurts!

Oh, it seems the rest stop ice cream he ate in the car is turning against him!

What are you going to do now, Asai?!

S-s-switch out...

He's requesting to be switched out!

And for his replacement...

he's chosen Ukita Ren!

Huh?

No way! I could never be your replacement!

It'd be impossible!

Hey!

Listen up! You're the youngest one on this beach!

And you're not afraid of the sun or wearing weird swimsuit!

But I can't...

It doesn't matter if you look dumb!

You can't win if you don't even fight!

Ah!

Ah!

What an intense gaze!

What will you do? What will you do, Ukita Ren?

I...

Ren-kun, you don't have to force yourself to do it!

I'll run!

I don't care if I look dumb!

I'll... fight!

Oh my! The one who took the baton was young ,12 year old Ukita Ren!

He's running like a kitten after a ball of yarn!

Ah!

Keep going! Stand back up!

- Come on! - You can do it!

- Go! Go! - You can do it!

Oh! Lin is coming up on him at great speed!

This will be a close one!

Which one of them will win?!

Ukita Ren goal!

The Eternal Boys win by a slim margin!

Yes!

- Wow! - You did great!

Wasshoi!

Wasshoi!

Our concert today was so fun, wasn't it?

Were you watchn' us, Ren-kun?

I was.

Not like I had a choice.

How was it?

It was too crowded! I have no idea how you have so many fans.

But, it's not like it was awful.

If you liked it then just say so.

I didn't say I liked it!

I decided

that when we get back to Tokyo I'll go on lots of auditions.

And I'll even try out for things I've never done before too.

Since I can't win if I don't even fight.

Mm! I see!

My last summer in elementary school might have ended with me surrounded by a bunch of needy old guys...

but...

it wasn't so bad.

What's about to start?

I don't know...

[Eternal Boys] Big announcement!

Good morning, Eternal Boys!

I'd like to hear this big announcement along with all of the fans today!

Okay everyone, do you know where I am?

Huh?

Is that...?

That's right!

This December, the Eternal Boys will finally have the concert at the Budokan they've been wishing for!

Ehhhhhh?!

[Eternal Boys] Big announcement!

Tsuki ga yasashiku terashita yoru

On a night when the moon was shining softly

Koko ni wa inai kimi wo omotteta

I was thinking of you even though weren't here

Kaze ni fukare me wo tojita mama

While standing in the wind with my eyes closed

Kuchzuasamu no ha ano merodi

I was humming that melody

imamo mada boku no naka ni aru

It's still here inside me

Atatakai mama yasashisa no subete ga

all the warm affection I have

Shiawase wo shiawase na toki ni

It's hard to feel happy

Kanjiru no ha muzukashii dane

during the happy times, isn't it?

Now it's dark nemuranakute ii

Now it's dark, but I don't need to sleep

Yasashii egao ga ukabu yoru nara

if it's a night when I'm picturing that kind smile

All through the night kimi ni tsutaetai koto wo kakoeteta

All through the night I was counting all the things I wanted to tell you

Wherever you are right now

Mataitsuka aeru made

Until the day we meet again

walking on walking on walking on susumeyou

walking on walking on walking on let's keep moving towards it

Kimi no iru story of my love

You're here in my story of my love

Story of Love

We'll live it as one

The story of love!
