"I am really happy..."

"...that I could treat Sensei gently."

"July 2015"

"But..."

"...I never imagined it would become like this."

You lie, even to yourself.

I understand. But before I knew it...

...my gaze...

...would always follow him.

I...

...come to like you, Sensei!

Please don't hate me.

This is not right.

I know this is not right.

He's your student.

You should end this, Hijiri.

I understand.

There will be no more after this.

That's for certain.

You finally becomes a teacher after all your hard works. What's important is from now on.

Please don't make such face.

Well, Chizuru-san, you said something like that before too, right?

When you went to Okinawa with your husband, you were fluttered.

Aah, it was at the hotel's pool~

I said things like, "How macho is that fair-skinned guy"...

...and that he was my type.

When he helped me with my swim ring and put some air into it...

...my heart skipped a beat.

Yeah. This is something like that too.

It's nothing more than that.

But I think...

...that's all thanks to Shotaro.

Your marriage is decided and you can see the plan for your life ahead...

Suddenly, everything around you becomes such a safety zone.

That's why, you should look away from anything dangerous...

...and unstable outside that zone.

Listen, Hijiri...

...you should be grateful to Shotaro for the fact that you're happy now.

You're right.

I really think so.

Good morning. Good morning.

- Good morning. - Morning.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

Ah, good morning.

Good morning. Good morning.

- Good morning. - Good morning.

Hey, somehow, today Hijiri-chan seems so cheerful, doesn't she?

Maybe.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Today, I'm going to announce...

...the long-awaited results of your end-of-term tests.

We don't wait for that, we don't wait for that...

Silent, please! Silent!

Here, I'll give them out. Iwasaki-san.

Yes.

Akira-kun is being targeted.

I don't know if it's because she's simply a pervert teacher...

...or she's having marriage blues.

Everyone says the same. That woman is weird.

If it continues like this, I'll be very worried about Kuroiwa-kun.

Sensei is... what?

You did well in technical arts and home economics.

Thank you.

Ebihara-kun.

What's wrong, Runa-chi?

Aah... I just hate myself a little bit.

Kuroiwa-kun.

Here. You did well. Just need a little improvement in English.

Okay.

Kosaka-san.

Hey. What's this?

Isn't it interesting? But after this I won't...

- Don't be kidding me! - Kuroiwa, stop!

What are you doing?! Stop it!

What the... stop that!

Hey, wait, wait!

- Give it back. - It's so-so.

- Please sit down. - I wanna take a look too.

Please sit down!

Wait a second.

As this term is ended, it's finally time for summer holiday.

- Speaking of summer holiday... - Ding dong!

Koboshidaira Fireworks Festival!

Thanks, thanks.

Well, that's true, though. That's true, but...

...before that, you'll have the summer course.

You have your 5-days schedule here...

Sensei, you're not in charge of any of these.

Could it be, you have plans for your summer holiday?

What? How unfair!

- Hey, don't say that. - How good~

Since I will be patrolling during the fireworks festival...

- ...let's just meet there. - Yeah, let's meet there!

So it means that during summer holiday...

...we will hardly see Hijiri-chan.

I mean, what are we looking forward to then?

Summer?

Huh? What's that? It's damn boring.

How hot. It's dripping a lot.

Hey.

I got it!

Huh?! You got two! Give it to me!

"You got 2"

- Hey, stupid! - Please! Let's exchange!

Hey! You!

Don't steal my first kiss!

You did it.

Ah, it's there...

Where are you going? Bicycle?

Why is it here?

Kuroiwa-kun! Did you fall down?

Did you hit your head?

By the way, are you serious about Hijiri-chan?

Could it be that you're seriously serious about her?

I guess you better not trying to climb such a high mountain like that.

Let me say it frankly. The chance that it could turn into mutual love is...

...zero! Nothing!

Do you think so?

Since I will be patrolling during the fireworks festival...

...let's just meet there.

What's wrong? Where are you going? Hey, wait!

Don't leave me behind! Hey, Kuroiwa!

- Hey, you two, stop please. It's dangerous. - Sorry.

Everything will be fine.

If I can keep this rhythm during the summer holiday...

...if I don't see him, I'm sure...

Sensei.

Kuroiwa-san... Good afternoon.

Are you getting better already?

I have something to talk to you.

It's about Akira.

Fireworks~!

Chugakusei Nikki

English subtitle by: aoihachi

Iwasaki-san did?

Well, of course I don't take it seriously.

But to hear her said things like...

...you always looked at Akira during classes, or that during the study camp...

...though you could just escort Akira to the station...

...you intentionally accompanied him until the last station instead...

...I think it's a bit worrying...

...for Runa-chan.

I'm sorry, Sensei.

I come here expressly to tell you these. It seems like...

...it didn't go well between Runa-chan and Akira.

I just wonder if because of that...

...she resented you in return, Sensei.

No... I think that's a bit...

Well, even though it's such a weird circumstances...

...please remain careful, Sensei.

Yes, I understand.

Ah, it's already this late.

I have to go back working.

How great, whoa, whoa, whoa...

"Student's name: Kuroiwa Akira"

Sensei! Thank you!

"His results are really good."

"He's good at Science and Math, let's improve more in social studies too."

"Koboshidaira"

"Osaka"

"The number you are calling is out of reach."

"You can leave a message..."

Kawai.

Bring out the latest proposal for manufacturing efficiency improvement.

Okay.

Konishi, where's the operator manual?

It will be out soon.

This isn't soba restaurant.

Well...

It's... well, if it's only for your feelings...

...thank you, but...

...I already have Hijiri...

I'm going home.

Good bye.

Wait...

- What? - No...

Ah, by the way...

...I apparently can't go for the business trip to Singapore.

- Please go there in my place, okay? - Singapore?

Together with our senior Haraguchi.

We'll be staying at the hotel nearby from the previous day.

The hotel will be Seawood, and the only dining option is bakkut-teh.

Please arrange that.

Okay.

- Here is the manual. - Thank you.

"I'm taking days-off during summer holiday. Can I go there?"

"When is it?"

"20-24 July."

"Sorry, but it's decided just now that I have to go for a Singapore business trip on those days."

"Really? Well, it can't be helped then."

"End of first term! Summer holiday"

Hey, hey, hey...

Hey, Atsuki, wait, wait, wait.

We did pretty well, right?

- Shiraishi, wait. - No, no.

There's no way I can show this to my mom.

What will we do now? Wanna stop by somewhere?

- Shake! - Ah, sounds good, let's go!

Shake!

- Got it! - Hey!

- What? You've got two 5 points! - Give it back!

Let me see, let me see!

Aah, though we keep on working on it, it's really endless.

It's holiday time now but we have so many works to do. What's with what?

We've got 3 induction courses in July, and during the break, there's a practice match.

- Moreover, we also have 'that'. - 'That'?

Fireworks festival. It's the first time for Suenaga-sensei, right?

Yeah, it is. I'm looking forward for it.

- Is this underwater fireworks famous? - You're too naive!

We won't get any chance to watch the fireworks.

We have to patrol all the time, anyway.

- Yeah, yeah. - The students are wandering aimlessly...

...and they'll possibly have a fight with students from other school.

Really?

- Suenaga-sensei. - Yes

You have finished the first term, thank you for your hard work.

At first, I wondered how you would made it...

...but somehow you could get through it.

Well, everyone has helped me a lot.

Thank you very much.

Well, there are some consecutive troubles after you moved here.

As for me, my very first assignment was...

...at an extremely desolated school.

- I even had to bring bamboo sword. - Bamboo sword?

Yes, bamboo sword. These days, as a principal...

Well, since this story is going to be a very long one...

- ...what about drinking together... - Ah, ah, Suenaga-sensei, here.

This one doesn't have parent's sign on it.

Ah, I guess you have to resubmit it soon.

Right, Shioya-sensei?

Yes, you're right. Please do so.

And also these. They haven't filled their desired course yet.

- Sorry. - Check it, check it.

"Kuroiwa Akira"

Excuse me...

Ah, Sensei.

Good afternoon.

Akira didn't tell me anything about this again.

I'm sorry, I'll sign it right away.

Ah, perhaps you want some tea...

No, thank you. I'm going back immediately anyway.

Sensei?

Why are you here?

It's for this, you know. My sign.

Here it is. Thank you very much.

- Well then, excuse... - Career consultation!

Can I have it?

Now, I'm a bit...

A high school in the neighborhood?

For now, I can't think of anything else...

Hey... please consult it more properly, will you?

She has expressly heard you out like this.

What kind of adult do you want to be?

How about thinking this way?

Instead of thinking about 3 years from now...

...you should think of what kind of person you want to be. Far before that...

...it's the present time, and from that point...

...can you imagine what kind of high school do you want to enter?

Please think of it carefully during this summer.

"Guidance for Taking High School Entrance Exams"

Yes, this is Kuroiwa speaking.

- I'll be back soon. - Okay.

Thank you for your help. Yeah.

Ah, really?

You can confirm it here and we'll fix it later.

Well...

...I'm going back now.

Sensei!

What?!

Yes, I understand. Okay.

When the fireworks festival is over, let's...

Well... I'm going back now.

Sensei!

What?!

When the fireworks festival is over, let's...

Yes, we'll try to fix it. Okay.

I understand. I'll call again later.

Excuse me.

Ah, Sensei.

Are you going back?

Yes, excuse me.

Thank you very much...

- ...for taking your time to come here. - Excuse me.

- Take care. - Thank you.

I'm finished...

"The summer holiday is starting. Is your work okay?"

Let's go.

Okay.

"It's time to start preparing."

"So we can have our wedding ceremony properly next year."

"Thank you! I leave it to you!"

In these sentences, we use 'to + infinitive' form...

...for this composition. For example, this "buy".

We use the infinitive form for the verb.

We went shopping to buy this book.

It means that in order to buy book...

Kuroiwa!

Do you know Suenaga's mobile phone number?

This is something only parents know.

My mom uses her birthday as her mobile phone's password...

...so I could easily get this.

Will you go together with me to the fireworks festival?

If you agree to go there with me, I'll tell you this.

What will you do? By the way, let's wear yukata.

You're troubling me with this.

Please stop.

"Class 3-1 Kuroiwa"

I didn't say that to tease you.

I like you, Sensei.

"I want to meet you at the fireworks festival."

"When the fireworks is over..."

"...I'll be waiting for you at Amanozaki Shrine."

"Singapore"

- Hello. - Hello, welcome.

May I help you?

I'm Haraguchi from Global Ved Corporation.

Two rooms in the same floor, please.

Thank you. If you would, please.

Let's go drinking for tomorrow's briefing.

What's wrong? What's with that dumbfounded face?

I just... don't understand.

Huh?

Well...

What do you think about that?

That...

What 'that'?

You know, that...

As expected, it feels a bit awkward.

Ah, it's okay.

Let's not talk about that anymore.

Let's talk about tomorrow's plan.

After I kissed you that night...

...I've been thinking about it.

Somehow it feels strange.

There's something about it...

...but there's also none.

However... I felt excited...

...but I also didn't in the same time.

It's surprisingly complicated, isn't it?

That's why I wanted to know as well.

What is this feeling?

Am I in love with you...

...or am I not?

But...

...I have Hijiri.

Aah, the girlfriend you're not going well with.

We're doing fine. Perhaps.

Perhaps there's someone else.

There's no such thing...

...Perhaps.

How about making sure of it?

With the person herself.

You should just frankly say it.

"Hey, you seem weird recently".

- "What's wrong?" - Haraguchi-san.

"Listen, if you don't tell me what happened..."

"...I'll summon you to Osaka right away..."

Please go to your own room.

Tell me the result later.

If there's no problem, knock once. If there's problem...

...knock twice.

Knock on the wall.

Good night.

It's tasteless...

I'm failed~

"Can we talk?"

I'm sorry that I can't be with you in this summer holiday, Hijiri.

It's tough, isn't it? Your business trip.

I just got back to the hotel now.

Glad to hear that.

By the way...

...since I'll be coming back to Tokyo this Saturday, I think I can go to your place.

There will be fireworks that day...

Fireworks?

There will be a fireworks festival here.

Are you going there?

With whom?

I'll have to patrol together with other teachers.

I see... so it's for work.

- Actually... - Ah, by the way...

...I found several interesting ceremonial halls.

Here, look at this. It has a pool on the courtyard.

Then, if we want to add some balloons there...

- ...we'll have to pay 70.000 yen more. - How expensive!

This one has a camp-like feeling.

We can cut the wedding cake while having barbecue.

There are so many of them~

I'll send you the data later.

He asked you to go out?! He said, "Let's meet today", like that?

Your yukata suits you a lot.

- It's beautiful. - Really?

Well, let's stop talking about me. It's not about that, okay?

There's no way...

...you will thoughtlessly go to that meeting place...

...to meet up with that student, right?

I didn't reply him.

I've blocked his number.

I see.

It's alright now.

It's good then.

Even so, in such important time like this...

...I wonder what Shotaro is doing~

Seems like he's busy.

But we still keep in touch.

Well, speaking of wedding ceremony...

...it's not something you can prepare by yourself.

Both of you should discuss together...

...or you'll lose the right temperature.

Temperature?

It's just like tea. If you leave it alone, your feeling will get cold as well.

That's why you should be together side by side to encourage each other...

...and work hard together to warm it back.

Comparing the latest construction machinery with the old-styled one...

...in order to make the structure simple...

...it's comparatively easy to use local services for repairing or such.

In order to establish the series of this project...

...we should continue the marketing research in every emerging country. Then...

Akira-kun, your lunch.

I'll have it later.

I don't mind...

...if that person disappears from my world.

If you can think that way, I guess your love life will go well.

Mysterious, right?

Well, in reality, it's not as simple as that.

That's why I'm still unmarried until now.

To let off steam, maybe it's good that...

...you don't meet Hijiri-chan-sensei during this summer holiday.

Hmm, to say it frankly, she's a teacher, you know.

Well, it's not like anything is going to happen though.

Why...

Why does everyone say things like that?

Why can't I like Sensei?

That's because... a rule like that exists.

This has nothing to do with those adult's circumstances.

But Hijiri-chan-sensei...

...is living in a world with that adult's rule, you know.

It's a rule to eat your lunch.

I've heated them in microwave.

"Tokyo"

Since you suspect her to have affair...

- ...you start checking SNS. - You surprised me...

- Kawai. - Yes?

If you start doing things like that, it's the beginning of an end, you know.

Huh, I can't see it anymore.

Please stop playacting like that.

As expected, it's really tiresome to have business trip continuously.

Should I go home earlier today?

As for me, I have somewhere to stop by.

A stopover.

Where is it?

"Koboshidaira Fireworks Festival"

Is this Hijiri's...?

Wanna go there? Together.

- Suenaga-sensei, here's your flashlight and your ID~ - Thank you very much.

The scaffolding at this place is not so good...

- ...so please be careful. - Okay.

- Please take care of the east side. - Okay.

- Shall we go now? - Let's go.

Aah, everyone seems to have lots of fun. How good.

Yeah, that's good.

It's natural to come here with your boyfriend, right?

- Fried noodles or takoyaki or that fried-something... - Hey, isn't it...

- Kuroiwa and Iwasaki? - What's that fried-something?

Oh, before we realize it~

Fried noodles? Wanna eat that?

- I'm not hungry yet. - Aren't you?

- Glad to see them having fun. - Yeah.

Let's go there, shall we?

Hey. Hey.

I've told you to wear yukata already. Why do you wear that?

I've told you I don't have yukata.

Ah! Is he your boyfriend?

- How handsome! - How handsome!

Come on, stop it~

Go back to Mom's place, okay?

Have fun!

How many people are there in your family?

With my mom, it's 5 people.

My father already passed away due to illness.

Surprisingly, you're cool, Iwasaki.

Huh? What's that? Let's go there.

Well, it hasn't broken yet.

I want to have another one, please.

I already have 4... oh, it's 5.

Come on, do it.

What the...

You're too clumsy.

Ah, I got it, I got it.

Ah, it feels so nostalgic to visit a festival like this.

Well, now it's time for you to tell me.

What do you come here for?

It's clear, isn't it? Of course...

- Ah, Hijiri. - Ah, candied apple.

Won't you approach her?

She's in the middle of working, so I'll contact her later.

I see.

Then, take seats on that area...

- ...and buy me that candied apple. - Okay.

How beautiful!

Summer!

How beautiful.

Aah, that's great!

Kuroiwa, let's go there.

Come on!

Hey, it's dangerous there. Be careful, it's dangerous.

Suenaga-sensei, can you please patrol over there? I'll go that way.

- Okay, I understand. - See you later.

What is it?

Shaved ice? Be careful not to eat too much.

Yes. Sorry.

- Joffe. - Yeah~

Is it really okay for you not to go to see fireworks?

Well, my eardrums are basically pretty weak, anyway.

Ah, thank you.

I'm not good with fireworks.

So I'll go with something environmental-friendly like this.

Hawaiian band. Ta-daa~

How about you, Boss?

How was it? In the past...

...you used to go there, right? And you were happy about that.

What's with that old story.

Somehow...

...this is the happiest moment in my life.

You said it before, didn't you?

That you're prepared.

But at least...

...I'm different from Suenaga. Because...

...as I'm fully prepared to get hurt, I came here.

You're awfully strong, Iwasaki.

But even so, so far...

...I've hurt you a lot... Sorry.

I've told Sensei...

...that I liked her.

But she didn't respond to it at all...

...and everyone keeps saying this and that.

Actually...

...I just want to be happy together with Sensei.

I just want...

...to treat her gently.

Kuroiwa...

...I want to punch you in the face.

You've turned on the switch completely!

Ah, I'm sorry...

Ah, I'm sorry...

Haraguchi-san!

What are you doing here?

You too, Hijiri-chan.

Why are you rushing like that?

No, I'm not particularly...

Kawai is here too.

We came together.

Do you like Kawai?

- Why do you ask such thing... - Answer me, Hijiri-chan.

Do you like Kawai?

Yes.

More than anybody else?

Do you like him the most?

Sorry, I don't get what you are trying to say...

It's obvious that I like him, right?

We're engaged, you know. We're getting married.

Why do you say that? It's okay, isn't it?

Even though you actually like someone else...

...that's okay to say it like that, right?

I mean...

...it rather caught my attention to see...

...Hijiri-chan who seemingly to be ordinary...

...to hold such passion like that.

How interesting. It will be such a loss if you don't enjoy such side of yourself.

Pretending to be ordinary, doing things accepted by society...

...and so hiding your true self...

It's very lame to be like that.

You should talk properly to Kawai.

If you don't...

...no one will be able to move on after this.

If so, how troubled I will be~

What do you mean by that?

Suenaga-sensei!

I'm going back to work.

- Thank you for your hard work. - Thank you for your hard work.

"Hijiri-chan"

To everyone attending the festival...

...Koboshidaira Fireworks Festival today is over.

While you leave the venue, please be careful...

...not to drop or forget anything behind.

It's bad. I give up. Here, I give the rest you.

She didn't pick up. I wonder if she's still working...

I want it now.

What are you talking about?

You, Kawai.

That's why... if there are troubles between you two...

...if everything goes wrong...

...and you're rushing into such unhappy marriage, I'm going to stop it.

That's why, you have to tell me...

...whether you'll knock once or twice this time.

- Thank you for your hard work. - How weird it is...

...to have this day ended without anything particular happened.

This year is really peaceful and uneventful, right?

It's because there are lots of kids who came here with their families this year.

Ah, Onee-chan!

How is it? Did you have fun?

Well then, everyone...

...this year, we could miraculously finish without any incident happened.

Thank you so much for your hard work.

It's still summer holiday after this.

"1 missed call from Shotaro-san"

Well, seems like kids nowadays...

...aren't as easy to understand as kids in the past.

When troubles are about to happen, there will surely be some signs of it.

So please watch over to each and every students attentively.

Well, let's go back now.

I'm sorry, but I'm getting off here.

Come to think of it...

...I think she said her boyfriend is coming...

...or perhaps not.

Which one?

"Shotaro-san"

Ah, my...

Sensei.

What are you doing here?

It's dangerous.

I mean... you seem like some dangerous people or so.

It's hot! Oh, crap!

Let's end this! Quickly!

Kuroiwa-kun too.

Why?

Why, you said...

Even though I waited, you didn't come.

Here.

Please wear this.

There are some broken glass pieces around.

But, Kuroiwa-kun, your foot...

The reason why I want to see you today...

...is because there's something I want to ask.

What do you think of me, Sensei?

I want to listen to the answer coming out from you directly.

What do you think of me?

I'm...

...getting married, you know.

I know.

He's a very kind person.

I know.

He's smart...

...and is always positive.

To be with him...

...makes me feels like I have to improve myself.

For someone so unreliable like me...

...I have to be a better person, so I can always positively...

I'm okay with the way you are now!

I'm okay with the way Hijiri-chan is now!

To say the worst thing...

...I don't even mind if you're having affair...

I can't do such thing.

Then...

...just for today...

...please be with me.

After that...

...I will give up on you, Sensei.

Being together... what will we do then?

I...

...want you to treat you gently, Sensei.

The fact that we're student and teacher...

...or that you have a fiance already...

...I want us to forget them all...

...and I want to know you better.

I also want you to...

Know you better, then forget it just like that?

Yeah.

Even though...

...I might like you more after I know you better?

But if you don't forget it...

Sorry, I didn't say anything.

...it would trouble you, right? Sensei!

Don't call me 'Sensei' anymore!

I don't deserve that...

I don't deserve to be called 'Sensei...

What is this?

I've spoken out such embarrassing things...

...but I didn't get the answer I wanted...

...and somehow...

...it even becomes a trouble for her like this.

Sensei... what do you want to do now?

I want to go home.

Honestly... me too.

Can I do it once more?

Kuroiwa-kun, please calm down...

I don't care no matter what people say.

I...

...I like you, Sensei.

I am really happy.

I am so happy that I could treat Sensei gently.

Only that is enough for me.

"I am really happy..."

"...that I could treat Sensei gently."

"But..."

"...I never imagined it would become like this."

Akira!
