If...

If...

If I had...

If...

If Nazuna had...

Nazuna!

"Today is the fireworks at Moshimo Shrine."

"If..."

I think I'll swim too, Norimichi.

FIREWORKS, SHOULD WE SEE IT FROM THE SIDE OR THE BOTTOM?

Norimichi, hurry up.

You have school today.

Go away. I'm not finished.

Last night's curry is for breakfast.

Gimme a break.

"Coming up next, today's pinpoint weather.

"We have a reporter in Moshimo.

"Good morning.

I'm at the Moshimo Lighthouse where there will be fireworks tonight.

The weather here is expected to be sunny during the day.

It should stay fair through the night."

What a pain. School during summer break.

You're lucky.

Why?

We'll be gone this afternoon.

You're so ticklish.

- Eat something in the fridge for lunch. - Knock it off.

Where are you going?

To the flea market to sell some junk.

At the festival? Who'd buy our stuff?

I can't believe we're closing shop for this.

Did you say something?

See you guys later.

You don't have to if you don't want to.

Yo!

Yo.

What are we betting today?

The loser sexually harasses Ms. Miura.

Are you serious?

Totally.

You bikers have an advantage.

Shortcut.

That's cheating!

Wait, Norimichi!

I won't lose!

You okay?

- Shut up. - Watch out.

Okay, okay.

You're so slow.

Yes!

Minoru, your turn.

You know I don't have any tricks.

Surprise us.

Do something.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Ms. Miura!

Good morning.

Look at 'em sway!

D? E?

F? G?

H? I?

Come.

J?

J...

Junichi, that was good.

Excellent receiver.

World class.

For sure.

Then I jumped out and...

Awesome.

Hi, Nazuna. About yesterday...

Hey.

Nazuna's a babe.

Huh? Oikawa?

No way.

I'm so into her.

Tell her.

I wanna go to tonight's fireworks with her.

So tell her how you feel.

I couldn't.

What if she rejects me? How embarrassing.

Whatever.

Take your seats.

"Moshimo Fireworks"

Today is the fireworks at Moshimo Shrine.

There will be a big crowd.

Don't stay out too late without your parents.

Who are you going with?

Your boyfriend?

Watch it or I'll sue you for sexual harassment.

I'll sue you back for power harassment.

You really better watch your mouth.

Uh-oh...

Get down from there. Hey!

You better get back.

Everyone's waiting.

I said get down.

Brats.

So? Tonight?

My students asked if I was going with a boyfriend.

Seriously? Maybe it's time we go public.

Stop it. We had too much to drink that night and...

Ms. Miura.

Yes?

Nazuna...Can I help you?

What's that?

My mom...

A letter from my mom.

She's moving.

Nazuna?

Yeah. Over summer break.

Really? That's pretty sudden.

Her mom's getting remarried.

Oh, is she? I don't know what to say.

Me neither.

Are you sure?

It's a privilege that comes with pool duty.

That's true.

She on pool duty too?

I don't think so.

She's on the swim team.

Do they have practice?

I don't know.

Uh-oh...

Bathroom.

Why?

Seeing Nazuna made me wanna go poop.

You're a moron.

Practice?

No.

Are you gonna swim?

No.

Then why?

Why do you think?

Hey.

What?

Dragonfly.

It's on your face.

Get it off me.

Catch it.

What's that?

I found it at the beach this morning.

Stone? Glass?

I don't know. But...

It's pretty.

I couldn't poop.

Oh.

I'll race you 50 meters.

You're on.

Let's bet something.

Okay. If I win, you have to buy me the latest volume of "One Piece".

Okay.

If you win?

I'll 'fess my feelings to Nazuna.

Huh?

Hey!

That's not fair. You jerk!

I was kidding. You want Nazuna for yourself, right?

What are you talking about?

What's going on?

Fifty meters?

I want in.

Are you betting something?

Sort of.

If I win, you have to do anything I ask.

Like what?

You'll see.

Here we go.

Ready...

Go!

What was that for?

Are you going to the fireworks tonight?

Let's go together.

Why?

Why?

Because I like you.

I'll go to your house at 5.

Ouch. I totally banged my foot.

So who won?

What?

Can I have it back?

That...It's mine.

Round.

Flat.

Definitely round.

Think about it. It's gunpowder exploding.

Of course they're round.

When you look at fireworks from the side, are they round or flat?

Rocket fireworks?

No. The big ones that get shot up in the air.

Flat, maybe.

See?

No way. They're definitely round.

Yusuke?

I dunno.

You guys are idiots. Sparklers are round, right?

But the big ones might not be.

So have you ever seen a flat one?

I have.

See?

You can't always trust Minoru.

It's true. They looked flat from my grandpa's yard last year.

He said the view was at a bad angle.

Grandpa knows what he's talking about.

He must be senile.

No, he isn't.

Then let's take a vote.

Who thinks they're flat?

Me.

Let's bet on it.

Bet what?

If fireworks are flat, you have to do our homework for summer break.

Good idea.

Let's do it.

What if they're round?

A photo of Ms. Miura's panty flash.

How will you get one?

I'll take it.

How?

But how will we watch fireworks from the side?

Helicopter.

That's easy.

"Moshimo Lighthouse"

The Moshimo Lighthouse is right next to the beach.

"Moshimo island"

The fireworks are shot up from here so we'll have a view from the side.

You're right.

So who's gonna go?

I will.

We should all go.

Okay. I'll go.

Come on. Let's go. It'll be fun.

Okay. Let's.

Cool. No homework over summer break!

You wish.

You going?

I dunno...

Come on, dude. A guys' night out.

Okay then. Five at the shrine.

Okay.

So...

You sure about the photo?

"Moshimo Fireworks"

I'm psyched. It'll be so much fun.

See you at 5!

Why is he so pumped up?

I dunno.

Ow...

"Closed"

You scared me.

Yo.

What are you doing here?

Your family is too careless. The backdoor is always open.

But don't just let yourself in.

Why not? You're free until 5.

What a coincidence. I am too.

That's not the point.

That's stale.

I'm home.

Hi.

Be polite, okay?

You had school today? It must've been hot.

I bought ice cream for us.

Which do you want?

Nazuna!

Sorry.

It's okay. Don't worry about it.

Did you already arrange the school transfer?

I informed her homeroom teacher today.

She must be sad to leave her friends.

She doesn't have very many.

A boyfriend?

Definitely no boyfriend.

You never know about young girls.

That's not fair.

You suck.

It's almost 5.

Oh...We can be a little late.

Yeah.

In any case, fireworks are obviously round.

They are?

Yeah.

You really didn't know?

Well...No...

You're an idiot. There's no world where fireworks are flat.

When gunpowder explodes, of course it'll be round.

Yeah, I guess.

But what if they're flat?

There is no world like that.

Why didn't you say so before?

I was just playing along with them.

"Moshimo Shrine"

Really?

Yeah, they're flat.

- I knew it. - Hi, guys.

What's wrong with you?

What are those clothes?

It's an adventure, right?

What?

Kazuhiro, fireworks are flat after all.

Huh?

This gentleman here is a firework craftsman.

Who'd know better than him?

Ouch.

That hurts.

Wow. You should go see a doctor.

It's not that bad.

You never know. You could get tetanus and die.

Really?

Go to my house and have my dad look at it.

I'll let the guys know.

No. Come with me.

We'll be late. Now go.

Seriously?

Also...

Huh?

If Nazuna's there, tell her I can't make it.

What do you mean?

She asked me to go watch the fireworks with her.

When?

Earlier.

Earlier when?

At the pool.

You should go. You're into her, right?

Huh? What? No way. When did I say that?

You've been saying it for a while.

Saying what?

You wanna tell her you're into her.

I was joking. Why would I be interested in a dog like her?

You're an idiot. A big one.

Excuse me.

Yes?

Is Yusuke here?

I don't think he's home yet.

He probably went to the fireworks.

I see.

- Where'd you buy that? - Hey!

Sorry I'm late.

So...Where's Norimichi?

At my house, getting his foot looked at by my dad.

Oh. Then let's go get him.

Let's go.

Hey...

Kazuhiro, you're too slow.

One more.

Don't you have to go?

Huh?

Prepare the fireworks.

And what you told the boys...They believed you.

That fireworks are flat.

Did I say that?

Hello...

Hello. I'm a friend of Yusuke.

Tetanus? You can't get tetanus from that.

Ouch.

Stay still.

Where's Yusuke?

He went to the fireworks.

Fireworks, huh? Always goofing around.

That's why I wanted him to go to a private school.

Um...Are fireworks round? Or are they flat?

Huh?

Nothing. Forget it.

I'll be back with your medicine.

Thanks.

Are you waiting for Yusuke?

He's not coming.

I see.

If...

If I had asked you, would you have ditched me too?

I was going to ask the winner of the race.

I suddenly decided to.

I thought you'd win.

Why did you lose?

You were so fast...I kind of panicked.

My fault? Is it all my fault?

What's that for?

What?

That.

What do you think?

I don't know.

I ran away from home.

Are you serious?

Yeah. I'm leaving this town.

You're kidding, right?

Yeah, I am.

Huh? Which is it?

Which do you think?

Do you know why I thought you'd win?

Nazuna!

No!

No!

Let go of me!

No!

Let go of me!

Please...No! Let me go!

Norimichi, help me!

No! I'm not going!

That was Nazuna, wasn't it?

What happened?

- That was intense. - Scary mom.

Total psycho.

I've never seen Nazuna like that.

- Yeah... - I wonder what happened.

Stop it!

Stop!

What are you doing?

Hey!

If...earlier today...

If I had won...

That race...

Norimichi, what's your problem?!

Damn it.

If I had...!

"Moshimo Fireworks"

What's going on? Fifty meters? I want in.

If I win, you have to do anything I ask.

If...

If I had won...

That race...

What are you doing?

Are you going to the fireworks tonight?

Let's go together.

Why?

Why?

Cut it out.

Your house at 5, okay?

Be there.

I felt like pooping again.

Where's Nazuna?

- Round. - Flat.

Definitely round.

Think about it. It's gunpowder exploding.

Of course they're round.

When you look at fireworks from the side, are they round or flat?

Rocket fireworks?

No. The big ones that get shot up in the air.

Flat, maybe.

See?

No way. They're definitely round.

Norimichi?

I dunno.

So have you ever seen a flat one?

I have.

See?

You can't always trust Minoru.

It's true.

They looked flat from my grandpa's yard last year.

He said the view was at a bad angle.

Grandpa knows what he's talking about.

Let's bet on it.

Bet what?

If fireworks are flat

you have to do our homework.

Good idea.

You going, Norimichi?

What?

Norimichi, let's go.

Yeah...Sure...

See you at 5.

"Moshimo Fireworks"

Yo.

What are you doing here?

Your family is too careless. The backdoor was open.

But don't just let yourself in.

Did you already arrange the school transfer?

I informed her homeroom teacher today.

She must be sad to leave her friends.

She doesn't have very many.

A boyfriend?

Definitely no boyfriend.

You never know about young girls.

Nazuna?

I don't think I can make it. Sorry.

I made plans with the guys.

Guys don't break promises with his pals.

I don't feel like going to the shrine.

Who cares if fireworks are round or flat?

Let's watch from the beach.

Uh...Okay...

In any case, they must be flat.

Really?

Yeah. Are you serious?

Well...Yeah...

They explode like this in a circle.

See? It's flat from the side.

Oh yeah.

So there's no need to go to the lighthouse. Let's not go.

Okay...I suppose...

That stuff's stale.

It is?

I'll go buy something to drink.

Really? Thanks. Something fizzy for me.

Okay.

Why?

Yusuke's here.

So you're not going?

Wait here.

I have to think.

Norimichi!

I changed my mind. We shouldn't blow them off.

Let's go together now.

Seriously?

So?

Get on.

Come on.

Nazuna? Why?

That asshole...

Hey.

Where are we going?

I don't know.

You don't know?

You're late.

Shut up.

Why are you pissed off?

I'm not.

What should we do?

What?

Are we going to the fireworks?

Do you want to?

But I thought you...

Oh, this?

Oops. It opened.

So...where should we go?

Tokyo? Osaka? Wherever you want.

Running away?

You're running away from home, right?

I'm not running away.

Then what?

We're eloping.

Eloping? Do we have to kill ourselves?

That's double suicide.

This is so heavy. Let's take a break.

Stop complaining. You started this whole thing.

I can't walk anymore.

What's in there anyway?

"Map of Japan"

What?

Are you a peddler or what?

Hurry up! Or we'll be late!

What's the matter with him?

Girls can find work anywhere.

I can lie and say I'm 16.

You don't look 16.

You don't think so?

What kind of work then?

A nighttime job? Hostess club? Bar?

No way.

What do you think? Do I look 16?

Look.

I found it at the beach.

What is it?

I don't know.

But when I found it, I decided to run away.

No...

If you won.

I decided to run away if you won the race.

So take the responsibility.

Will you come with me?

Nazuna!

No! Don't!

Let go of me!

No!

No!

Norimichi! Help me!

No! Please!

Let go of me! I don't wanna go!

Help me!

Norimichi!

Norimichi!

Nazuna...

- What? - Back off!

Norimichi!

If...if earlier today...

If Nazuna and I had gotten on the train...

If...

Norimichi!

Is that you?

What are you doing?

Why didn't you come to the shrine?

Uh...I had something to do.

And now you came looking for us?

Huh? Oh...Yeah...

Now that we're all here, let's go to the lighthouse.

I don't really care if fireworks are round or flat anymore.

Me too.

Don't say that. We're almost there.

"Lighthouse / Beach"

Where's Nazuna?

Where did she go?

Why was she at your house?

Um...Because...At the pool...

What happened?

It's hard to explain. You see...

Is she your girl?

No.

Then what?

Um...

You get on my nerves.

We're here!

Which is it? Round or flat?

They haven't started yet. But they're round for sure.

If they're flat, you're doing our homework.

It's open.

Can we climb to the top?

We should try.

Yeah. Let's.

More stairs?

It's a long climb.

It's starting.

Which is it?

Round, like I said.

I'm telling her after summer break.

I'm gonna tell Nazuna how much I like her.

It's narrow.

Hurry up.

We're so high up.

- Which is it? - Round? Flat?

I told you! They're flat!

Why...?

This can't be true.

Fireworks are flat?

Fireworks are obviously round.

They are?

Yeah.

You really didn't know?

Well...No...

You're an idiot. There's no world where fireworks are flat.

When gunpowder explodes, of course it'll be round.

Yeah, I guess. But what if they're flat?

There is no world like that.

You're right.

This can't be true.

Yusuke...

What?

I'll get Nazuna back.

If Nazuna and I get on the train...!

Girls can find work anywhere. I can lie and say I'm 16.

Do I look 16?

I found it at the beach.

I don't know. But I decided.

I decided to run away because you won the race.

So take the responsibility.

Huh?

Take. The. Responsibility.

What?!

Will you come with me?

Nazuna...

- What? - Back off!

Let's go.

Stop!

Nazuna...

That was fun.

Wow, Norimichi.

You were so cool. I'm impressed.

I wasn't really thinking. So, who is he?

My mom is getting remarried.

Unreal, right? Her third marriage.

She cheated on her first husband with my dad.

She got pregnant with me and they eloped and moved here.

She said it was like a movie.

So I'm the daughter of a runaway couple.

Cool, huh?

But Dad disappeared.

It's only been a year but Mom already has a new man.

Unbelievable.

So you want to run away?

I already am.

"Running away" sounds so childish.

We. Are. E-lop-ing.

I'm a bad girl. Like mother, like daughter.

So what now?

Let's go live in Tokyo.

Where should I work if not in a bar?

How about show business?

As an idol?

What do you think? I think I have potential.

"There is no night that's not followed by dawn

You said so quietly"

What's that?

Mom's favorite song by a famous idol from her days.

I know it by heart.

"There is no night that's not followed by dawn

You said so quietly

From a cape with a lighthouse

we were gazing at the dark sea

There were days when I was confused

Times when sadness almost broke me

You were there for me so

I was able to keep on living

The sunrise shoots out arrows of light from the horizon

and wraps around you and me

The blue earth"

I know it.

We can't run away or elope.

But before I transfer to a new school...

I wanted to be with you just this one day.

Look...That's Yusuke.

Crap!

Was that Norimichi?

With Nazuna?

What's going on, Yusuke? Why are they together?

Are they an item?

Damn it!

Where are you going?

Wait!

Hey!

We're busted. They saw us together.

So what? Is that a problem?

No...But...Yusuke has a crush on you.

- Wait! - Stop!

They're chasing us.

Nazuna!

Nazuna, come back!

Mom!

What should we do?

Let's get off.

At the next station.

Nazuna!

This way.

Norimichi! What's going on?!

What should we do?

Fly.

Hey...Where are we going?

I don't know.

You don't know?

But...

even if you're moving away

I want to be with you just this one day.

Look.

Norimichi? Nazuna?

Good evening.

Good evening.

Hello, lovebirds.

We're not like that.

Hi...Wait for me...

What are you guys doing?

Research on whether fireworks are round or flat.

Nazuna!

What is this all about?

Were your breasts this small and flat?

Pervert.

Norimichi...

Are fireworks round or flat?

You guys were talking about it today.

They're definitely round.

Really?

For sure.

Oh my God...

Wow...It's beautiful.

Nazuna.

It's not right. This is a different world.

What?

Fireworks aren't shaped like this.

I don't care.

Whether they're round or flat or weird looking

I don't care as long as we're together.

There they are!

Norimichi! What are you doing?!

Where's the door?

This way. Hurry.

Nazuna! Come down!

What should we do?

If...

If Yusuke and your mom didn't find us

could we have stayed together?

I'm gonna throw it.

Norimichi!

You asshole!

Let's go live in Tokyo.

What?

Where should I work if not in a bar?

How about show business?

As an idol?

What do you think? I think I have potential.

"There is no night that's not followed by dawn

You said so quietly

From a cape with a lighthouse

we were gazing at the dark sea

There were days when I was confused

Times when sadness almost broke me

You were there for me so

I was able to keep on living"

How much farther to the lighthouse?

I don't care if fireworks are round or flat.

Shut up and keep walking.

What are you doing?

Huh? Oh...

I knew it.

You knew what?

Mom...

I'm sure they'll be at the next station.

We'll be fine.

"Moshimo Lighthouse Station"

Why are we on the sea?

What is that ball?

What ball?

The one I threw from the lighthouse.

I don't know.

If that ball could make your wish come true, what would you wish for?

That's not possible.

I'm just saying if it could. I threw it earlier today.

When?

When your mom found you and dragged you away.

I threw it.

What are you talking about?

You don't remember?

No. When did it happen?

Today.

Today?

Early evening.

It's early evening now.

You don't understand.

Today is repeating itself. Don't you remember?

You're not making sense.

I threw the ball so that's why I...

Do you believe me? Of course you don't...

I lost the race to Yusuke at the pool.

You asked him to go to the fireworks with you.

I wouldn't ask Yusuke. Never.

But you did. You asked him, not me.

But he ditched you.

Then your mom caught you

and I found the ball and I threw it as hard as I could.

If I had beaten Yusuke...

Then things started going "grrr"...

"Grrr"?

I mean...They went "gwa-wah".

Your vocabulary's too limited.

Shut up.

In any case, I was suddenly swimming in the pool.

This time, I won. You asked me out.

You don't believe me. It is a crazy story.

I believe you.

I'll believe anything you say.

I know it's no use doing this.

But...If...

If, in any case, I have to move away

just this one day, I want to be with you.

"Moshimo Station"

"Restroom"

We're back.

Let's go.

Oh my...

There are still so many things I don't know about this world.

So this is a world you created.

I don't know.

I thought "if" and my wish came true but

it doesn't make sense.

It doesn't, huh?

If...

If I threw the ball, wishing the world would go back to the way it was

would it?

It probably would.

Then you'd...

You'd move away.

Then we won't be able to...

I don't want that.

I'd rather stay in this strange world

and be with you!

I want to stay in this world with you!

Hey, wanna go swim?

Let's swim.

Come on.

Swim? Really?

We're not swimming?

Are we gonna swim or not?

Hey! Swim or not?

Hey...

Nazuna! Hey!

You scared me to death.

Norimichi.

What?

When will we see each other next?

Nazuna!

It's a festival for God's sake.

We shouldn't have to work.

Why is there a firework shell on the beach?

Who dropped it here?

A disgrace to firework craftsmen.

Okay! Here it goes!

What is it? Just say it.

Nazuna, I...

I love Nazuna!

I do too!

I have since we started school!

You're kidding me!

I'm not!

I love Ms. Miura!

I love Alisa Mizuki!

I already know that.

When we meet again, what kind of world will it be?

I can't wait.
