Die!

So, when's he transferring?

Today.

Interesting. Bring him to me.

Sorry.

Why do you want to break up now?

I want to join a gang at a public school.

You read too many comics.

What?

You can be a delinquent at this school.

Private schools get mocked. The real stage for delinquents is public schools.

Move!

Why'd you transfer here from a private school at this time of year?

I'm what they call a dropout.

Where's the newbie?

Yo.

Come with me.

MORIKI TAKASHI

So where are we going?

Shut up and walk.

WANKO

You the new guy, huh? Must be tough from day one.

Tatsuya! He's here!

LUPIN

Wait a sec.

IGUCHI TATSUYA

Um… why was I called?

To kill time.

He looks busy though…

You called our school a place for "dumbshits"?

I didn't say that.

What are you saying?

Sorry, I only speak "dumbshit."

I really didn't say that.

Fine.

You bastard! Dodge again and I'll hit you for real!

You'll hit him if he dodges? How?

Don't kill him, okay?

People don't die that easily.

Right?

He's alive.

I told you he wouldn't die.

Come.

Move it.

You gonna fight with your shoes half off?

Fight? Who and who?

You and me.

What for?

You need a reason to fight?

But…

Hey.

I want to join a gang at a public school.

If you can't even fight, don't have your hair like that, wimp.

That's cruel. You got beaten up just for going to a private school.

Coloring your hair will only get you more trouble.

I've gotta get tough.

Shut up.

What?

I said, "Shut up."

Who're you?

I'm a badass!

Come on.

You're a trip.

Come on.

Come on.

Hang in there.

Get up.

Hands off!

I'll kill you.

We're not done yet!

I'll fucking kill you! You little shit!

That's enough.

Moriki, you stopped me too soon.

It was about right.

I'm hungry.

Wanna go eat ramen?

You're broke, right?

Lupin has money.

I'm paying again?

Stolen money, right?

Hey, what's your name?

Your name.

Hiroshi.

Well, Hiroshi…

you wanna eat ramen?

You don't want to?

I do.

I do, I do.

You all right, man?

"And so, Hiroshi successfully dropped out."

Seriously?

You look like crap.

Thanks to you.

There's really only four delinquents at school?

Five, including you.

So much for public schools.

Other schools have more. And because of Tatsuya, they're all enemies.

Seriously?

Here you are.

-Oh, Miyuki! -Hi.

This is Hiroshi. And this is Miyuki from Class 2.

Hello.

Nice to meet you.

What happened to your face?

He fought me.

You fought again?

So what?

Oh, the poor thing.

Oh, I'm fine.

Hold still.

There.

Thank you.

Stop drooling.

Who's drooling? This is normal.

Just so you know, Miyuki is Tatsuya's girlfriend.

Mind your own business.

I see.

Huh? What's that reaction? You seem disappointed.

I'm not.

Fine, I'll lend you a porn flick with a girl just like her.

-Seriously? -You seem happy.

Knock it off.

No, idiot. I'm happy about an uncensored porn video. Not about Miyuki's look-alike.

I lied. She doesn't look like her at all.

Just an old lady.

-Really? -You're disappointed.

No, I'm disappointed that it's an old lady.

What? An old lady?

What are you getting disappointed for?

-I'll see it, anyway. -You're borrowing it?

Ow.

Ono!

You scared me.

Hey.

Your face is all messed up.

Where's Hide?

Up there.

Oh, Hiroshi!

Let's eat.

Hold on.

That hurts!

Leave me alone.

No smoking!

Huh?

What's my sister doing here, anyway?

To see Hide, not you.

Knock some sense into him, Hide.

You got beaten up bad, huh?

So you fought and lost?

It's not about losing.

Fighting just as soon as you transfer.

Shut up.

It's fine. Idiots like him learn how hot a pan is by touching it.

Yeah, that's it.

So you lost?

It's not about losing! Are you eating or smoking? Choose one.

Shut up.

While everyone else is cramming for exams or training hard in a sport…

you've chosen to play around.

You'll have to work twice as hard later.

-So make the most of it, man. -Yeah.

I seriously plan to.

And don't become someone lame who complains, "I wish I had done better."

Yeah.

Good.

-Hide, you're too soft on Hiroshi. -Yeah?

You lost, right?

You're so annoying.

I lost!

You lost? That's so lame!

What's with you?

So totally lame.

Hey!

Back to work.

Okay.

Okay, let's do it.

This sucks.

I wish I had done better back then.

Look who's moaning.

Here. Good luck.

-See you. -I'll be going.

This stinks!

Stop it.

Take a whiff.

That reeks! It stinks way too much!

How is everyone?

They're all fine. You having fun?

So much fun.

Really.

Make any friends?

Yeah.

There's Lupin.

A master thief.

He steals?

Anything.

He never gets caught?

That's why he's called "Lupin."

But he won't fight.

I don't do bad things other than stealing.

Apparently.

I see.

And Wanko.

He's an animal. He even bites during fights.

He bites?

And once he bites, he doesn't let go.

Then there's Moriki. He's really cool.

That's enough.

There's this total jackass teacher at school.

Say "morning"!

Your hair's brown. Infringement!

How many centimeters above the knees is this? Tell me! Look and tell me.

20 cm? Infringement!

He and Moriki ended up in a sumo match during P.E.

Infringement!

He became a school hero after that.

And then there's Tatsuya, who's incredible.

He's been fighting a gorilla from another school named Teru.

Their rivalry was instant.

They're both tough as nails. Like in a comic.

Tatsuya's won more often. But it's a long war.

Sounds like a lot.

But it's fun.

Sorry, my friend's here so I gotta go.

Okay, take care.

Yeah!

What do you want to do?

My place.

Helmet?

-What's this? It's pink. -The color doesn't matter.

He's not coming out.

Probably pissing his pants.

What time do you think it is right now?

Buzz off, grandma! Or we'll kill you!

That guy's from when I transferred, right?

Sumida.

That brat has brought his dad's replica sword again.

Let's go.

Let's go? He's got a Japanese sword.

It's a replica sword. It ain't sharp.

It's sharp enough if it strikes you.

I've got this.

That's small.

Length's not important.

Length is important.

It is about the spirit! Like how hard you hit.

And if I had a sword too, I couldn't go all out.

Let's reconsider.

But don't you want to drink at my place?

What's with you? Let's at least call Moriki and the others.

Too much hassle.

It's no bother, really! We can wait a little.

It's a hassle!

Why are you so lazy?

Let's go.

Wait! Where's my weapon?

You're so annoying.

Here.

-It's pink. -That doesn't matter.

It says "Love and Peace" on it. The opposite of fighting.

Just hit them in the head with it.

A helmet's to protect the head. It's not a club.

You don't want to go?

Yeah, I don't.

Well, tough!

We're going.

Shut up!

-Yakuza. -Dad.

Your dad?

You idiots. Who can sleep with you shitty brats making noise?

Sorry.

What's with the sword, punk?

-Let's go. -You're going?

Hey!

Move!

Hiroshi!

Dammit!

Let go!

Ow!

I'll beat you up!

Come on, Hiroshi!

I know!

You bugger!

Come on.

Damn punks.

Come here.

Come on.

Tatsuya! If you're gonna fight, fight somewhere else!

Shut up. They came on their own!

Who asked you to butt in anyway, geezer?

I'll kill you!

-Just try. -Fine, I will.

-Very funny. -Come here!

-No, you come here! -Show your old man some respect.

What a family.

Respect? You idiot!

…you idiot!

This isn't…

Crap.

-Hey! -Let's go!

Take that.

Never mind him. Let's go!

What's going on?!

They started it.

-Quiet! -It wasn't me!

Hands off me, clown.

It's this jerk you want.

I said it's not me.

Settle down.

I'm telling you, it's not me!

Are you stupid? It wasn't me!

What are you doing, loser?

Who are you, idiot?

I'm a cop, loser.

Like hell you are, idiot.

I even look like a cop, loser.

You don't look like one, idiot.

Just shut up, loser.

Make me, idiot.

-You're under arrest, loser. -Am I, idiot?

-Stop, loser. -Quit spinning me, idiot.

-Stop spinning, loser. -It's you, idiot.

I'm getting dizzy, loser.

How come we're always fighting?

You need a reason to fight?

That again?

Was your dad okay?

Yeah. He was released the next day.

I see.

Hey, Tatsuya, is your dad yakuza?

Ex-yakuza.

What does he do now?

-Taxi driver. -Why'd he quit?

Forget my dad. Let's eat.

-I've got no money. -And Lupin's not here.

Why are you drinking soda at a restaurant?

Do I need a reason to drink soda?

That wasn't cool.

You're no Tatsuya.

We're the same.

I took 10,000 yen from my mom's purse. So it's on me.

Are you ready to order?

-Holy cow. -You're like a DOM Trooper!

-Bring out the other two! -Jet Stream Attack!

Who's Dom?

That was good.

Hey. You said you had money.

-I lied. -Why would you lie?

I don't get it.

-Why? -It's funny.

It's not funny.

Didn't you steal 10,000 from your mom?

As if she'd have 10,000.

Unbelievable.

-I only have 500 yen. -I only have 20 yen!

How do you go out like that?.

It's not funny.

How about you, Tatsuya?

Not a single yen.

How are you so calm?

You guys ate, too. So you're accomplices.

Hey, what's an "accomplice"?

-You that stupid? -Yeah.

Stop laughing.

Especially you! Think of something!

Just call Lupin!

Yeah, that's it.

No. He's visiting his grandma in the countryside.

Why's a juvenile delinquent visiting his grandma?

I guess I'll call Miyuki.

What?

Why're you so excited?

I'm not! This is normal.

You are! You've got the hots for Miyuki, huh?

She's Tatsuya's girl. No way.

I don't mind. You should go out with her.

What?

I'll break it off.

What do you mean?

I'll call her.

He's found a new girlfriend.

Really?

Shut up!

Thanks. I owe you.

-Good for you, Hiroshi! -Shut up.

When's Miyuki getting here?

I don't know. She's gotta shower first.

Hiroshi! Hear that? A shower!

Yeah, so?

-What're you fantasizing? -I'm not.

So how stacked is your new girlfriend?

G-cup.

That's huge!

A, B, C, D, E, F, G…

G!

That's 7 sizes.

Look.

Whoa!

What the…?

You bastard!

Stop!

North Middle School punks.

So what if we are?!

What kind of weapon is that?

The hell?

That was stupid.

Come out!

Hey! Bastard!

Get back here!

You bastard!

Come back here.

Hey. You still alive?

Screw you.

The hell? These guys were nothing.

As expected of Akagi and Kato.

You little prick.

Silence!

Who are you guys? Bodyguards?

Chofu South Middle School's "Red Comet," Char Aznable.

Chofu South Middle School's "White Fighter," Gundam.

That's not even funny.

"Red Comet" and "White Fighter"?

You're more like "GM" and "Ball."

Who you calling mass-produced?

You bastards! I won't forget this.

Because we're definitely going to kill you!

Come any time.

Don't mess with North, man.

We ain't done.

Crap! Come on!

Die, punk!

What happened?!

Miyuki…

Tatsuya! Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Are you okay?

It's you?

Are you okay?

Hey, you lost again?

Shut up.

He fainted and was taken by an ambulance.

Don't push yourself too hard.

-I know. -All you do is lose.

Leave already!

So lame.

You stay home today.

Okay, okay. I got it.

We're going to Disneyland.

In a suit?

Well, it's Disneyland!

Casual's fine, dork.

We're going.

Okay.

Have fun.

-I'll take this. -Hey! You idiot!

So annoying.

Hey.

You scared me.

You're going to jerk off, huh?

Huh? Shut up and get out of here!

You are, aren't you?

Yeah, yeah, yeah…

Hello?

Is Hiroshi there?

Miyuki?

Yeah.

What's up?

Can I come see you?

What, at my place?

No?

No, you can.

I'll leave now.

Okay.

Yes!

Ow!

Ow!

She's here!

Coming!

-Hello! -Delivery.

Great.

Your stuff.

Yeah.

Sign.

Oh. Pen.

Still a lot to go.

How many left now…

I can't take it.

You done?

All right, thanks.

Thank you very much.

What's his deal?

He picks his nose way too much.

What now?!

Oh…

Miyuki.

What's wrong?

I'm sorry.

Are you okay? Come on in.

Drink up. Bet you're thirsty from crying.

I've got lots of iced tea.

No juice or anything but, huge amounts of tea.

I know a guy named Ono. And he says when drinking barley tea, "Let's barley."

I…

was dumped by Tatsuya.

I see.

I'm… annoying apparently.

Well, you're not.

You're not annoying, Miyuki.

You're kind, Hiroshi.

This is normal.

Why're you crying?

Because you're crying.

You cry when I cry?

It's easier to cry together, right? We're splitting it.

What's do you mean?

I don't know.

Thank you.

Why are you thanking me now?

I don't know.

Okay.

The phone.

I'll get it.

Hello?

Answer the phone quicker!

Tatsuya.

What's up?

Come to my place.

What? Now?

Tatsuya?

That was Tatsuya?

Yeah. He wants to see me.

I'd better go.

We're going to beat them up now,

Beat them up? Your body's a mess.

-It's about spirit. -That's not enough.

Yes, it is!

Besides Sumida, those two sure are tough.

Chofu South Middle School, right?

It's probably Akagi and Kato who would go that far.

They're famous?

Half of Chofu South Middle School is made up of thugs.

It's practically decided that most graduates join biker gangs.

And Akagi and Kato ruled Chofu South from their second year

and are potential future leaders for a biker gang.

Okay. Let's forget it.

-Don't be a sissy. -Yeah, don't be a sissy.

But do you know where to find them?

No.

You don't? Then where are we going?

We'll go to Chofu.

Like we can find them that easily? They're probably at home.

Idiots like them usually go out.

No. Some idiots stay home.

Don't be a sissy!

I'm not being a sissy!

Don't be a sissy!

-Shut up. -Shut up.

Shut up!

You shut up!

Tatsuya, I heard you got your ass kicked by Akagi and Kato.

-Teru. -Screw you.

Watch it. You're injured.

Good, maybe you'll have a chance, then.

Say what?

Hold on.

Why are you here, porky?

I thought I'd tell you where Akagi and Kato hang out.

Why would you know?

They hit us, too. And I was looking for them.

Where?

I'm paying them a visit. You can tag along.

Why do we have to be taken there by you? We'll take you there!

So show the way.

So, how are we getting there?

Hiroshi, go borrow my dad's car key.

What? There's no way he lends his car keys to his son in middle school.

If you crash it, I'll kill you.

He lent it to me.

Apparently, it's a loan shark's or some crazy situation.

Whatever. Let's go! Come on, hop in!

Why are you leading?!

Take shotgun, then.

Can you drive?

No problem.

I doubt that.

Get on!

Shut up!

Hey! You drive like crap.

-Shut up, I drive an automatic. -Then don't volunteer.

Shut up! This way.

This is it.

Okay.

No one's here.

That hurt. They start coming around noon.

Hey, you gonna fight, too?

Sure.

I thought you didn't fight.

I do when I'm avenging my friends.

That's pretty cool.

They're here.

Okay, let's move.

Get in the car.

Why the car?

Teru. Ram 'em.

What? What do you mean?

-We hit them. -Run them over?

We won't kill 'em.

With his driving skills?

-Leave it to me. -I'd rather not.

-Let's go! -Hey!

Hey, why did you start the car?!

Run 'em over!

-Don't, Teru! Stop, Teru! -Do it, Teru!

Yes!

Seriously?

Good, they're not dead.

People don't die that easily.

Teru, back up!

Hurry up.

Hurry!

I guess we hit them again.

No, let's not.

You again, dirtbag?

We came as promised.

No, no, no!

Hit the gas!

Stop the car, bitch!

Try hanging on!

Die, punk!

No one messes with us!

Let go!

Screw you!

I said let go!

Let's go, Hiroshi!

Tatsuya, behind you!

Follow me!

Ow…

Come on!

-Tatsuya, let's split! -I don't care.

Hit it!

Go nuts!

Wanko!

Get in!

Go! Go!

They're Terminators.

VROOM

MERRY CHRISTMAS HIROSHI

Hiroshi…

Merry Christmas!

This, of course, was…

Stolen.

I knew it!

What's next? Jewelry?

-No, it was too hard. -You tried?

You're headed to juvie.

Man, that's good!

Speaking of juvie, Akagi and Kato got out.

Really?

Since when did you join us?

Well… Cut me some slack.

Besides, they were busted?

You didn't know? In a fight after our little payback.

No kidding!

They'll be coming.

-Good. -Good.

-Good. -Not good.

Don't be a sissy.

But they're a biker gang. With like 200 members!

Listen!

I hear bikes.

Approaching.

-Real close! -It's them.

No way. Would they show up that conveniently?

Don't show up so conveniently!

Why'd you come?

To kill you. What else?

Just the three of you?

Why do we need to gather a bunch of people for you?

What? Seriously?

You're never gonna bring your whole gang?

We fight our own fights. They're not a part of this.

You're wearing the jackets, though.

That's just…

coincidence.

Sure it is.

Shut up!

No gang then, right?

That's what we said.

You swear?

You're bugging me.

Truly and honest?

Yeah, now shut up!

Good, they won't come for us.

Gang, army, whatever… bring them on.

You shut up!

We're putting our lives on the line to get ahead.

But we'll never walk tall with posers like you showing us up.

Who're you calling a "poser"?

Leave this to me.

With no gang coming, suddenly you're tough?

Come on, come on, come on!

Don't paint yourself as heroes. You're the bad guys.

Screw you!

Maybe auto racers can talk of laying it on the line.

Or boxers training their butts off can talk like that.

But you? You're nothing but a couple of dumb-ass delinquents.

And what are you?

We're just bored youths with nothing better to do.

Well done.

Is that so?

Well, we're bored, too. So let's play, then.

-Tatsuya's more bored. -Don't jerk us around!

Chill out.

What?

Since you three came, we'll give you three representatives.

Let's settle this one on one.

Bring it on.

Sounds fun.

I pick you.

Yeah.

You fight me, then, Iguchi.

I'll fight anyone.

It's decided then. You're up against me.

Yeah, I'll pass.

No way!

Wait, I've got no one to fight.

I'll fight you.

You tell him, Moriki.

Don't hide, sissy.

I'm just respecting his wishes.

I'll take you on soon enough.

I can't settle down if I don't beat him today.

Fine.

Wait a second.

Don't back down so easily.

Have you no pride?

I'd be willing to swallow my pride to avoid him, yeah.

Then…

We'll be waiting at Torikoe Shrine.

Don't you dare run.

That goes for you, too.

It's final?

I'm fighting Akagi, and that's final?

It's final.

You might die.

-I guess it's you and me, then. -Why?

-You didn't run. -Why would I?

Tough guy, eh?

So who goes first?

Rock, paper, scissors.

All right, we'll decide with rock, paper, scissors.

Make it quick.

Rock, paper, scissors.

Rock, paper, scissors.

Something's wrong with that picture.

Rock, paper, scissors.

Yes, I win.

Rock, paper, scissors.

Damn, I'm last?

Ready?

Ziggy head.

Who're you calling "Ziggy head"?

What's with that body?

A delinquent who works out?

Shut up!

Isn't he cold?

Oh, he is.

Come.

That's enough!

Let go!

He's done!

Not so fast.

Who told you to stop?

It's fine.

You'll get him next time.

You all right?

Son of a bitch.

Give it all you got.

Yeah.

Finish him quickly, Teru.

It'll be over instantly.

Get up, you.

It's not over yet.

That's enough.

Okay.

Well, that was lame.

The last fight's unnecessary. We're up 2-to-nothing.

That's not how it works!

You heard that?

Kato will get his revenge later.

And he's just a wimp.

What's important is that you really piss me off!

Hiroshi.

Don't lose.

Okay. Shut up!

Fight, fight, fight, fight!

It's Christmas, man!

Even the Godfather is at a home party on Christmas!

Maybe it means nothing to you 'cause you're a Buddha head.

What did you call me?!

Next time, read the room and pick a weekday, dammit!

You curly-headed oaf!

Crap. He's so strong.

What's wrong?

Ow…

Wait…

Get up.

Moriki, stop this.

-You're still okay. -Go fight!

Moriki! Stop this!

Stop scrambling and fight!

Die.

That's enough.

Iguchi! Kato will be coming for you.

Moriki. You stopped it too late.

It was about right.

Hey, a white Christmas.

Let's rumble.

He really came.

Bring it on!

Let's rumble.

Bring it on.

You okay?

Knock it off!

Let's rumble.

Bring it on.

You bastard!

Jump in!

Let's rumble!

Bring it on!

Let's rumble.

Bring it on.

Let's rumble.

Bring it on.

Let's rumble.

Bring it on.

Let's rumble!

Bring it on!

Enough already!

This is endless.

It's already New Year's Eve!

No, it's passed… without even a countdown!

It's the New Year!

You've come nearly every day since Christmas just to fight.

So have you!

It's because you don't realize you lost!

What?!

I said, enough!

If you're coming every day, let's just hang out.

Come over, drink, eat noodles and tangerines, watch TV.

In the evening, let's go drinking.

I mean, as long as you're here.

I am hungry.

I was watching the history drama yesterday.

If Tatsuya's the Satsuma Domain. You're the Choshu Domain.

Let's stop fighting and form a killer clan!

And I'll be Sakamoto Ryoma, the organizer.

Like how Piccolo was the enemy in the beginning.

But when Vegeta and Nappa came, he fought them as an ally.

Akagi and Kato are Piccolo. Tatsuya's Goku.

Oh.

Alright? Come over.

I'm hungry.

Why not?

And you?

Fine with me.

You?

A truce for now then.

Tatsuya?

Suit yourself.

Good! Let's go.

I'm hungry.

Won't we be an inconvenience at this hour?

Excuse me?

I'm asking if it's an inconvenience since it's late.

Sounds strange coming from him.

It's fine.

Well then, if your folks don't mind.

You really seem a good guy.

Shut up.

Well, Happy New Year.

-Happy New Year. -Happy New Year.

I'm starving!

How hungry are you?

Isn't the tradition to eat noodles before midnight?

It doesn't matter.

I'm home.

Where were you?

Happy New Year, Hiroshi.

Hide, you're here.

Want some?

By the way, I brought some friends. Do you have enough for them?

Friends, at this hour? Is it okay?

Shut up. Yes!

Hiroshi! Don't talk to your mom like that.

Show them in then.

Hey!

Happy New Year.

Happy New Year.

-Happy New Year. -Happy New Year.

Tatsuya, what happened to your face?

I fought those guys.

Evening.

Sorry for the intrusion. Nice to meet you. I'm Akagi. Happy New Year.

So well-mannered.

-Friends of yours, Hiroshi? -Yeah.

We became friends today.

Friends?

We put an end to our hostilities.

Honestly, why do you insist on abusing those beautiful bodies?

Quiet.

They could be out doing a lot worse.

Fighting's like an extracurricular activity.

'Course I brought us together.

Really? Hiroshi, that's cool.

That's just normal.

Fine, I'll boil some noodles.

But I want you all to shower. You look a mess.

Sit down.

-Sit. -Please.

Looks tasty.

It is.

Ma'am?

Yes?

May I use your restroom?

So polite!

Man, you're so well-mannered.

So what?

He's a good kid.

A good kid with a punch perm?

The restroom's this way.

Will the noodles be ready soon?

Just how hungry are you?

TAP TAP TAP

Nice ass.

Check it, Hiroshi.

Isn't today your graduation too? At least go to school for graduation.

You too.

We're fine.

Then me, too.

Whatever.

What next? A biker gang, Hiroshi?

No. Me and Lupin are going to high school.

You can do both.

No way. Bikes scare me. And you don't wear helmets.

Don't be a sissy.

Wear one, then.

And be the lone dork?

I give up.

Plus, I don't wanna have a punch perm at 16.

Don't be a sissy.

It's not being sissy. It's hairstyle.

We're not joining.

Me, Akagi and Kato will start a new gang.

Wait, isn't that bad?

Those two can't just leave their gang.

Why not?

Join us, Hiroshi. It'll be dull without you.

What do you need me for?

'Cause… we're buddies.

Back off! Since when did you get so chummy, anyway?

That's cold, man.

Why are you crying? That's gross.

Were you that sensitive?

-I'm not crying. -You are.

I got dust in my eye!

Man, that's old.

Crap.

What're you guys doing?!

Why?

Your sister called. Why aren't you at graduation?

Thanks, sis.

At least go to school for graduation.

What a hassle.

Yeah, it is.

It is now, but years from now, you'll laugh and talk about it.

You guys might all be together then.

But some guys, you won't meet ever again.

Hide…

Stop blubbering.

Shut up.

Alright.

Come on, Tatsuya.

Get up.

Hey.

That baldy in Class 4 with the big mole on his head?

We won't be able meet him anymore.

You guys are a pain in the ass!

Let's go!

Tatsuya! Let's go!

Alright, go.

Don't bail out.

We won't.

I'm off to work. Now go graduate properly.

Okay.

Okay, thanks.

Why are you here at our middle school?

I couldn't mention that I don't go here.

Hide probably doesn't know.

Just join our graduation.

Now that would be memorable.

What are you doing?

Quiet.

Idiot, stop!

What's all the noise?

Dammit.

Sorry. We're late. Can we have our diplomas?

Settle down!

You'll get one. So sit down!

Good to see you.

So Tatsuya…

Yeah.

You really broke up with Miyuki?

Yeah.

I…

Suit yourself.

Okay.

You don't even go here.

But a graduation is a graduation.

You really are an idiot.

-Hey, Hiroshi. -Sir.

What's up?

Nothing.

Hi!

Miyuki? You switched over from Tatsuya?

It's not like that.

Date me, then.

How does that work?

Flash me, then.

What are you saying? Come on.

Just one, then.

Goodbye.

Oh, come on. Just once. Leave them with me.

Leave them here.

Give us a break.

Just one, then.

Check this out.

Wow!

It's beautiful!

I never knew this spot.

Teru showed me.

Teru?

Yeah, Teru brought me here.

But it wasn't romantic at all, coming with a gorilla

And Wanko peed over there.

Look, a full moon.

Oh, yeah!

This is kind of amazing, huh?

Who knows how many of these we'll get to see?

And probably very few with somebody.

As adults, we'll be too busy to look up at the sky.

So…

seeing it with you makes it kind of special, you know?

What?

You're being romantic.

That's normal!

No, it isn't.

It was cool.

You're teasing.

I really like you, Miyuki.

Sorry. I figured I'd come out with it.

Yeah.

I think about you all the time.

When I'm eating, bathing, even when I'm shitting, I'm thinking of you.

I make you the heroine when I read comic books.

Creepy, right?

I see you as Minami in Touch.

As Yuria in Fist of the North Star. Dorami from Doraemon.

Not Shizuka?

You're Piccolo in Dragonball.

No, thanks.

I know you're still hurting from your breakup with Tatsuya.

So my timing probably isn't very good.

But I like you.

I thought maybe I could help heal your wounds.

Thanks.

-Will you-- -Sorry!

What?

I'm sorry.

No, that's okay.

I'm really flattered you like me.

You're very kind…

and I like you a lot.

But I can only see you as a friend.

I'm not ready for a relationship.

Well then…

Until you forget--

Sorry.

Sorry.

This probably won't make you feel any better but…

I really appreciate your feelings.

-Then-- -Sorry.

I didn't say anything yet.

I'm sorry.

Okay.

My house must be about there.

Your house is…

-There. -There.

Close. Let's go out.

Sorry.

-Sorry. -I didn't say anything.

ENTRANCE CEREMONY

From today, we're high schoolers.

If only Tatsuya, Moriki and Wanko were here.

Come on. They'd surely get us all expelled right away.

We'll just be "semi" bad-asses.

Yeah, but…

Don't worry. I'm here!

-Sumida! -You bet.

But you're a wimp.

Yeah? Watch.

Hey, bozos!

What did you say?

Stop!

Toilets!

How did this happen?

You heard of Akagi and Kato from Chofu South?

They're pals of mine. You still want to do this?

He's dropping names already.

Coward.

So what?

What, fatty?

He is a fatty.

Such a small uniform.

I regained weight, okay?

You were thin once?

I'll kill you.

Come on. It's the first day of school. Can't this wait?

You picked this fight.

Damn right!

Hey! What're you doing?!

Son of a bitch!

So weak.

Come again?

You're expelled.

Already?

Goodbye.

You're lying…

It's not a lie.

This is the worst.

You're such an idiot.

It's all Sumida's fault. Expelled on the first day!

So what now?

How should I know?

You can't do nothing. Come work with me.

Hard labor at 16?

Hey, I dropped out at 16 and got a job.

You enjoy your work, but I don't know what I want yet.

You'll find something.

Until then, work and earn some dough.

I know.

I wish I could've gone to high school a little longer.

Apprentices get 200,000 yen.

500,000 after a year.

If it doesn't rain, sometimes a million in a month.

A million?!

Hide. I've found my calling.

That was quick.

Right! I've gotta buy a wallet.

What, don't you have one?

No. I'm broke.

Okay, then. Maybe I'll buy you a wallet.

Really? Yes!

Stop that!

So you wanna quit, huh?

It's just more fun with them.

Don't get smart!

Bastard.

Hey. Untie Kato.

Okay.

What are you doing?

Bring your friends.

Leave them out of it!

If you don't, I can't guarantee Akagi's health.

Screw you!

No!

I understand.

I'll get them.

Kato!

Wait for me.

Don't go, Kato!

Shut the hell up!

Iguchi.

What happened to your face?

I need your help.

Hiroshi! Work starts today.

Hide's coming to pick you up.

Wake me when he arrives.

Unbelievable.

Sorry.

Don't be.

Sounds fun.

I'll call the others then.

He's here already?

Telephone.

Who is it?

Tatsuya.

Hello.

Get over here.

I can't. I start work today.

Akagi's held hostage by the biker gang.

The biker gang?

If we don't go, who knows what they'll do.

-Where're you going? -Just out.

Out? You're starting work!

Ready?

Sorry, Hide. Let me start tomorrow.

Don't be stupid!

But I told my boss.

-Sorry. -What?

Get back here!

-Let go of me! -Hiroshi!

Get a grip!

Bitch!

Explain yourself.

You don't hit a woman!

You're a stranger here! Stay out of this!

What?

A stranger?

-You're late, Hiroshi. -Sorry.

Let's go.

-How many are there? -Fifty.

Fifty versus seven.

Eight counting Akagi.

He's tied up.

Looks like we might die this time.

People don't die that easily.

Right. Let's do it.

Not scared for once?

I am scared.

You all right?

Yeah.

I'm sorry for troubling you.

He's worthless.

He's still young.

After all you did for him.

Tomorrow's fine.

Hide, you're too soft on Hiroshi.

I'm an idiot. I understand idiots like him.

Yeah.

He's like a little brother.

Hide?

He called me a stranger.

I'm sorry.

Let's make him my real bother then.

Let's get married.

Hide…

I'm not dressed for this, am I?

After work, I'll propose properly.

Thanks.

You okay?

Sorry.

Sumida!

Hey, Hiroshi.

Who the hell are you?

We came to help!

Come here!

Next time, we'll kill 'em all!

Let's go home.

Ow.

Ow…

What're you doing?

Hide…

What?

Hide…

What about Hide?

At the construction site…

What happened at the site?

He fell.

Yuka! Hiroshi!

How is he?

Unconscious and in critical condition.

How?

He took a misstep. Normally he'd be working with a harness.

He figured it's only the 3rd floor, and went ahead.

But why?

If only I had stopped him…

But he'll survive.

Explain it to them, please, Doctor.

Of course.

His heart had stopped when the ambulance arrived.

CPR got him back but…

he suffered some brain damage from the fall. He's in an unstable state.

What about surgery?

We don't know if he can survive surgery yet.

For now… we can't operate.

So we do nothing but watch?

We'll do all we can for him.

But now, we must wait for his condition to improve.

No…

We're betting on his strength.

Can't you do anything?

We'll do our best.

Can I see him at least?

He's not allowed visitors right now.

Dammit.

Hiroshi.

-Thanks. -Yeah.

What, you lose again?

Shut up.

Have 'em look at you.

This is nothing.

Okay.

When Hide gets better… come to work, okay?

And I heard you hit your sister.

Hide told me.

Hide said he hoped you and your sister would get along well.

Apologize properly, alright?

Don't be like that, he'll be fine. He's always been tough.

He's a good fighter, unlike you, Hiroshi.

Shut up.

And he takes huge dumps.

Why does that matter?

Anyone with poop that big can't die.

And it reeks, too.

When I was in elementary school

we snuck into the pool at you and Hide's middle school, right?

Yeah, when he took a dump in the pool?

Hide's poop was enormous.

With people watching, too.

The floating poop looked like a giant salamander.

Come quickly.

What is it?

His condition's worsened. His heart's stopped.

What?

Doctor! Infusion!

Epinephrine one ampule! IV.

It's ready.

Hide!

200!

It's charged!

Stand clear!

-Negative. -Go to 300!

Hide! Fight, Hide!

-Please! -It's charged.

Stand clear!

Negative.

It's charged.

Negative.

It's charged.

Stand clear!

Negative.

360!

Doctor.

Doctor!

I feel bad for Hide.

Not yet.

He looks like he's in pain.

Will that save Hide?

It might.

Please, ease my son's pain.

10:12 p.m.

He's passed away.

Hide…

You tried.

Hide…

Hide!

Hiroshi.

Not changing?

I'm too tired.

I see.

What's up?

Nothing, really.

Don't be creepy.

I'm sorry I… hit you.

What brought this on?

Ono…

told me that Hide had hoped that we'd get along well.

Yeah, that's just like Hide.

So… I'm sorry.

That's okay. I hit you first.

Plus after that, Hide…

he told me to forgive you.

That's just like Hide.

Yeah.

I couldn't apologize to him.

This was at Hide's house.

What?

He said he promised to buy you that.

He made me go with him to buy it.

Hide…

I didn't even start work.

I guess you'll have to now.

Yeah.

So obedient.

This is normal.

I see.

Listen…

What?

You'd better start eating.

Thanks.

You know what? Hide…

He asked me to marry him.

He did, huh?

I miss him.

Hide.

I miss him.

Out with it. Stop being gross.

I'm leaving Komae.

What?

I promised Hide I'd work.

You can work here.

I want to start over.

Start over here.

Why can't I leave town, huh?

'Cause it's sad.

You're too quick to cry.

Shut up!

Thanks, I appreciate that.

If I know people, I'll rely on them.

So I gotta go where no one knows me.

And start from scratch where I can't rely on people.

If it means that much to you, we'll see you off.

Since you called us all here, you've made up your mind, right?

You sure, man?

I've decided.

Then you'd better not lose!

To whom?

You represent our town!

You're way too close.

Right, then. Let's drink!

I'll go steal some beer.

Wait.

I'm not buying it.

What?

Come on, Tatsuya. Wish the guy well.

If you're leaving, fight me.

What? Why fight?

You need a reason to fight?

-Stop it. -It's okay, Moriki.

You're trying to scare me out of leaving.

What?

Fine. You're on.

You want to die?

People don't die that easily.

Outside.

Moriki. You'll stop it if it gets bad, right?

Yeah.

It's a full moon, tonight!

That's rad!

Another special full moon.

Come.

Come.

Come.

Need a ride? It's on the house.

Flash me, then.

Just one titty.

Incredible rack.

You can't park there.

You again, idiot?

What are you doing, loser?

None of your business, idiot.

-I'll kick your ass, loser. -Just try, idiot.

Step out, loser.

No. Go solve a crime, idiot.

-Step out, loser. -Find something to do, idiot.

Stay out of trouble, loser.

Did I do something, idiot?

That nag can't win, loser.

Wanna wager on it? She's won before, idiot.

Not this time, loser. No. 3's your winner, loser.

Who says, idiot?

It's obvious, loser.

Good point, idiot.

Take this.

It's your leftovers.

And a beer.

Stolen, right?

Nope. Purchased.

Really? Wow.

Hiroshi…

Get a grip!

Shut up.

Truth is, I ain't moving that far away.

You lost again?

I did. Why the suit?

'Cause it's a send-off!

Good luck.

Yeah.

Hiroshi!

You came!

Thanks.

Hiroshi… I…

I got back with Tatsuya.

What?

I'm sorry.

I'm glad.

Thank you.

Where is Tatsuya?

I see.

See you.

Bye.

Hiroshi's left by now.

We'll settle this ourselves.

That's enough.

Moriki, you stopped it too soon.
