Ta-da! This is the Orange Notebook.

Anyone can write anything.

What do you mean by "anything"?

"Anything"?

I mean anything.

What you felt today,
tomorrow's dreams, yesterday's heartache…

So it's a notebook for writing messages.

Exchanging information about stuff
like job hunting and final exams.

Let's write about
more personal stuff, too.

More personal…

-Oh, go ahead.
-Go ahead.

Let's also write about personal stuff.

-I've been studying a little.
-That's amazing.

-Amazing!
-So we write about personal stuff, too.

A diary we all write in. At our age.

Our days as students
are ending in a few months.

So for memory's sake…

Let's not be stubborn.
It's the Orange Group notebook.

It's our doodling book.

Wait. "Orange Group"?

What is that?

I came up with it. It's our name.

So why "Orange"?

For our sweet and sour adolescent days.

Oh! I like it!

-It really is a nice idea.
-Really?

Thank goodness!

The Orange Group, huh?

-You like oranges?
-I do!

I can see right through you, too.

Huh? What do you mean?

This Orange Group thing's
for Akane, right?

You're using the group
to move things forward with her, right?

Ah. Could you tell?

I thought I'd secure a foothold.

So that's it.

Watch out!

The princess is calling.

What's going on with those two?

So, did you write your love letter?

Oh, right.

Could you read this for me?

That's longer than a thesis.

-Come on.
-No.

What?

Don't be so mad.
I did that because you were far away.

I'm not mad.

-Then smile.
-Huh?

Smile.

Are you an idiot?

So? What do you want?

You can't say that kind of thing
when you've got a girlfriend.

Hm?

What you said yesterday about rescuing
me from "the darkness of no sound."

Right.

That's way too cool.

Like from a movie.

Really? That's bad?

Don't say things like that unless
you're willing to give something up.

What's "something"?

Your girlfriend, for example.

Wait. Isn't that a separate issue?

-It's separate?
-Yeah, it is.

Oh. I thought you liked me.

So you don't like me.

No, it's separate from with my girlfriend.

Not that I dislike you.

Oh. Are you saying that you like me?

You're hitting on me?

Just kidding. Of course not.

I'll live my whole life
and never fall for you.

There we go.
The "I'll never like you" proclamation.

Hold on.

That's not what I wanted to talk about.

I always get sidetracked talking to you.

Then what is it?
What were you trying to say?

Hurry up.

-"Hurry up"?
-Come on…

Please hurry up.

Oh, very well.

Like you suggested to me,

I'm going to try.

There's no point
spending my whole life whining.

I can't play the violin,
but I'll find something.

I'll proactively look into it.

"Proactively look into it"…

That's not right. That's too rigid…

Hold on. Don't talk to yourself
with sign language.

Why not? I can talk to myself.

I'm sorry.

So, thanks to you, it's pretty good.

My emotional state.

I'll search hard
for what I can do right now.

Oh, that sounds good.

I was actually able to put that
into words rather well.

This here.

Sorry, Sano! I got drunk and fell asleep!

You're sleeping like Sleeping Beauty,
so I'm taking off without waking you.

The coffee's next to the stove.

The bread's behind the toaster.

The key's on the table.

And my heart is always within your reach.

I LIKE THE IDEA OF

What are you writing?

Nothing.

You like this sort of
adolescent play stuff?

What's wrong? Keep writing.

I'm good.

Hold on!

I said hold on!

What?

Don't look so sour.

Oh yeah. How's your sister?

Huh?

Sorry for showing up yesterday.

Hey, Ayumi!

I said put this underwear in…

Oh. Right.

I was a little surprised.

I wanted to try that pork sukiyaki.

What? Did Ayumi say something?

Yup. She invited me in for dinner.

I've only eaten sukiyaki with beef,
so I was curious about the taste.

And I'm sure it was
the expensive kind of beef.

That's right. At least 800 yen per gram.

That's nice.

You know, I assumed…

you lived in a high-rise penthouse
in the heart of the city

and drove a bright red convertible.

I thought you'd never
be caught dead doing laundry.

You make me sound like a player.
Where's your imagination?

Then how am I supposed to imagine you?

Akane!

Need a ride? I'll drive you.

I'd love that!

Seriously?!

-Hold on!
-He's in my seminar.

He says he likes me.

I see.

And how do you feel?

Do you like him? That scrawny guy.

Better than you.

Thank you!

Who is that?

-I don't know him.
-Yeah?

-Yeah.
-Go ahead!

We're off!

Where should we go?
Maybe Jiyugaoka? Or a cafe…

Could you drop me off
at the second turn ahead?

What?

I have some urgent business.

Urgent…

They often say that it's urgent,
but it never is.

On TV and stuff.

It really is urgent!

Sorry.

Quite an elegant piece.

-Your performance was also superb.
-Thank you very much.

I was watching that.

Don't. It's embarrassing.
I never liked that outfit.

They called you a "beautiful pianist."

I wish it was "genius pianist,"
but that's asking too much.

Hey, have you eaten yet, right?

I brought home some dinner for us.

Hm?

Sorry about yesterday.

Oh, you don't have to be all formal.

Wait, I need to say this.
She needs to hear this.

I'm listening.

I'm sorry about yesterday.

About ruining your cake?

I'm sorry.

It was all such a shock to me.

Not being able to play the violin.

Back when I studied abroad,

I couldn't decide whether to
pursue the piano or the violin.

Since then, it's been nothing but violin.

I kind of knew.

You chose the violin
for my sake, didn't you?

You were on the way to becoming
a better pianist than I was.

That's not it.
I just liked the violin better.

I see.

I've been thinking about
what to do for a job.

I thought you wanted to
make a living through music.

I thought I did.

But that road's closed off now.

Then why don't you
take some time to think about it?

There's no need to hurry.

For you, it doesn't matter
if you're fresh out of college or not.

I've got enough to easily look after you
for a couple of years.

I'm baggage to you, aren't I?

Don't be silly. If you were, I would've
left you when I divorced your father.

Besides, you call yourself baggage…

but it's scary to walk
without your belongings.

Like going to a party
and forgetting your handbag.

You're lost right now,
so I'm going to help you.

Thank you.

I'll think, and I'll look.

And I'll rely on you for a bit.

But remember…

when I'm in trouble,
you'll need to help me.

Got it.

Say…

How's that boy from yesterday doing?

He's doing just great.

And no more questions about that.

Okay then.

All in good time.

-What?
-I told you.

Let's take some time off.

-Time?
-Apart from each other.

Oh, if this is about
the other day, I'm sorry.

I wasn't being very sensitive.

But me and her… Me and Sae don't--

It's not about her.

Sorry. That's not it.

It's just…

Things haven't been right
with us for a while.

I want some time alone to think…

about things.

Things…

Is that okay?

Of course.

That's bad.

-That's super bad.
-Are you sure?

After time apart,
isn't getting back together unlikely?

It is.

Don't be so sure.

How many meters apart?
Did you ask for how long?

How could I ask her that?

I do want to ask, though…

It's hard to be a man.

Why are you so sharp
when it comes to other people?

But I needed some time to think, too,
so it's perfect.

Think about what?

Like my career and stuff.

But you're a shoo-in
at Alpha Watches, right?

Everybody knows their final interview
is just a formality.

Well, yeah.

What are you thinking about?

Well, I'll announce it
when I've gotten my thoughts in order.

"Announce"?

I meant maybe.

In that case, could you
first read my… Huh?

Oh, here it comes!
The love letter longer than a thesis!

Hold on. I shortened it a bit.

Here! Huh?

Are you sure this doesn't have
anything to do with Sae?

Huh?

This Maho thing.

Oh. Maho said that it didn't.

Remember what you said about Sae before?

About Anne Sullivan and Helen Keller,
or the stray dog no one could control.

Right.

But she isn't Helen Keller or a stray dog.

She's a 21-year-old woman,
and you're a 22-year-old man.

That's awfully graphic.

Look, I think you've got a good thing.

But that is one way of looking at it.

I appreciate the advice.

I'm serious.

Hmm. Really?

Whoa! Wait!

Ow!

Finished.

I like the idea of the Orange Group.

I left the countryside
thinking something would happen.

I entered this university in Tokyo,

and though that I'd meet wonderful friends

going here every day.

I thought I'd be an adult forever
once I reached fourth year.

After spending one, two, three years…

But to be honest, before I knew it,
I was in my fourth year of school.

Excuse me. Flash.

Thinking about the future,
I wasn't at all prepared to join society.

And looking back,

I didn't have
any especially wonderful memories

that I could call my "university years."

The job?

Just as I was thinking that
it'd be sad for it to end like this…

along came the Orange Group.

That's why I've decided
to take a leap and open up.

And talk about all sorts of things.

I mean, fate has brought us all together.

So I've gathered my courage
and written my first entry.

Akane Ozawa.

What are you doing?

Nothing!

ORANGE GROUP

I've been thinking.

What is it that I wanted to do?

What is it that I can do?

You're late.

Huh?

You're saying that now,
at this point in your fourth year?

You're turning down a job
you've almost landed?

He's right. It's a waste.

I get that Keita's saying this,
but you too, Shohei?

You and I are different.
You're pretty much an honor student.

Turning down Alpha Watches is a waste.

It's a waste.

What did Professor Sakaida say?

He said it's a waste.

When's the final interview?

In two days.

Go. You should go. Get the job offer
and then think things over.

You can always turn them down later.

I have the feeling that if I get an offer,
I'll end up accepting it.

I'm weak like that.

It's not weakness…

It's just…

ORANGE GROUP

Sae.

How embarrassing. I'm sure
I'm the only one who's written in there.

No. Someone else has written something.

"Back then,
back when I first entered university,

I wonder what I was thinking."

Oh! This is Kai's handwriting!

I've seen his notes, so I can tell.

I knew it.

I've been thinking about my future.

Yeah?

I can't play violin, so what can I do?

I could try painting.

Yup.

I could try tennis.

Okay.

I could try cooking.

What? That doesn't suit you.

Just kidding. Go on.

I could try dancing.

Uh-huh.

But…

No matter what I think,
and no matter what I imagine…

He's always there.

He's always next to me.

Laughing or complaining or getting angry

or making stupid jokes.

Kai?

Most people who heard that
would say that you like him.

I know that.

But that's not what I would say.

Once we graduate, we go our separate ways.

So what I just said

is a secret.

Sure.

EMPLOYMENT INTERVIEW WAITING ROOM

Numbers 21 to 25,
please enter the adjoining room.

I'll leave this here.

Huh?

I got paid,
so here's a little something for you.

What's wrong?

Nothing. Thanks. I appreciate it.

Sorry for rushing out.
I've got another meeting.

Another?

A bigwig involved in commercials
called me.

For sex?

You don't invite someone
to a hotel to play cards.

Oh yeah?

When I used to read
celebrity gossip in a tabloid,

I thought they were really
playing cards in a hotel room.

I had fun playing cards.

See you.

Good job today.

We'll contact those who passed
the interview within two days.

Understood. Thank you.

Excuse me.

Oh.

I'll take the next one.

I'm getting off!

You look good. Like an office worker.

-I had an interview.
-That much was obvious.

"That's why I've decided
to take a leap and open up."

-"And talk about all"--
-Knock it off!

I just read the Orange Group notebook and…

I said knock it off!

I will.

So you're job hunting.

Indeed I am.

You're not?

Huh? Hmm. I'm not sure.

You can sleep with all sorts of women,
but you're too chicken to join society.

I'm sorry.

About what?

I was a little out of line there.

Are you mad?

Of course not. You're absolutely right.

Isn't that your girlfriend?

He's some bigwig involved in commercials.
It must be for work.

-Why don't you end it?
-End what?

This relationship you have with her.

She's like me.

She'll do anything to get what she wants.

Using her body to gain money and fame
is just another method.

You saw my house. I'm poor.

My sister's disabled.

I have to work to get
a lot of things for myself.

Unlike Keita or Kai.

-Do you have time?
-Huh?

You haven't left yet.

Shall we sleep together?
This is a hotel, after all.

-No.
-Okay then.

Not yet.

If you really fall in love with me,
and I fall in love with you…

If that happens, then I will.

Could that really happen?

You're not alike.

Huh?

You and that girl. You're not alike.

You're not looking
for money or fame or any of that.

Then what? Tell me.

What am I looking for?

Are you saying it's love?

-Will you give me that?!
-I don't know!

But everything you say and do
feels like a facade.

Like you're pretending
not to be a good person.

Maybe you're scared of being good?

I think you're afraid to admit
that you're lonely.

I'm sorry.

What I said was strange. Forget it.

How can I forget it?

Sorry for the wait.

Have a seat.

I heard from Professor Sakaida.

-So you're Kai Yuki?
-Yes.

It's a part-time job that pays hourly.
Are you sure?

Yes. Thank you very much.

Ow!

I kept missing, so I threw everything.

Listen…

Hey! Honestly…

Here.

So every time you call me,
all kinds of stuff falls from the sky.

I heard.

You turned down the job. Why?

I've been thinking.

I tried to remember.

What I wanted to do
when I entered university.

Why I decided to major
in welfare psychology.

I thought I wanted to work
in patient care and rehabilitation.

But life's not that easy.

I didn't make the cut.

But looking at you…

Seeing you trying made me think that
maybe I could try a little harder, too.

That's why I need to make a choice now.

It's not that I want to save people
or think that I can save them.

I just want to help people.

Maybe I can be a handrail
when they need to stand up.

Like training wheels on your bike
when you're first riding.

Maybe I can at least be
something like that.

And eventually, maybe they'll take off
the training wheels,

and be able to ride a bike by themselves.

I mean, they definitely will.

And they might forget about me.

But that doesn't matter.

As long as I helped them get there.

It's weird.

Talking to you makes me say a lot.
I become a chatterbox.

I think you'd be suited for that.

I mean, you encouraged me, after all.

You helped more than
training wheels or a handrail.

I think I said something good there.

Can you understand my signing?

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Thanks.

I'm rooting for you. Good luck.

I see.

So you've made up your mind?

Yes.

I see.

Want me to call Alpha Watches for you?

Oh, no. I'll do it myself.

I see.

Good.

Thank you very much.

Cymbals?

I thought percussion might be good.

I don't think Shohei's a bad person.

Really?

He's interested in you.
That's why he teases you.

I'm not so sure.

He's got a bunch of different girls.

He's making fun of me
because I'm an average nobody.

He repeated what I wrote
in the orange notebook verbatim.

He's so irritating.

-So he memorized what you wrote.
-Huh?

The words you wrote in the notebook.

Oh…

He must have read what you wrote
over and over again.

Otherwise, he couldn't have repeated
it verbatim.

Dummy.

That's not it. He's making fun of me.

He better be.

What?

Nothing! Let's just eat.

Dig in.

Hello, is this
the Alpha Watches HR department?

I'm Kai Yuki, a student
at Meisei Gakuin University.

I'm sorry, but…

I'm calling to cancel my final interview,
which is scheduled for today.

Chopin's polonaises.

How did you know?

I could just tell.

The air vibrates.

Really?

I can tell from how your shoulders move.

And I just had this feeling.

I could just hear it in my head.

Your embracing polonaises.

Huh? "Embracing"?

Not too strong, but not too soft, either.

Embracing.

Try playing it.

Cymbals aren't bad,
but the piano is percussion, too.

See? You hit it like this.

Relax, relax.

You always joke around.

But well played nonetheless.

Move her legs side to side like this.

Yes, sir.

-I'll be working with you today.
-Thank you.

-I'll move your legs now.
-Okay.

Now lower your hand.

Your left foot. Your right foot.

Now slowly…

Oh! Sorry. Are you okay?

See? It went in.

Ready?

Like this.

Whoa! That was great! Up top!

Yay! Let's try another.

Goodbye.

CENTRAL MEDICAL UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

Kai.

What's up?

I heard from Professor Sakaida.

Why did you turn down the job?

I'm working part-time
at that rehabilitation center.

I heard that.

You never told me.

But you were the one who said
you needed time and space.

I know that.

Why'd you turn down Alpha Watches?

You almost had the job.

Don't you love me?

What?

In your life…

-Is there no place for me?
-What do you mean?

Like, will I promise my future to you?

That's right.

That's…

Honestly, I can't right now.

I'm sorry. I kind of knew
you were thinking about that stuff.

But I avoided the topic.

But I care about you
and want to continue being with you.

I waited for your call.

I wanted to call you,
but I felt I shouldn't.

So… When you showed up,
I felt relieved and…

That's not it.

I just wanted to ask about the job.

I'll take you home. I came by car.

It was…

It was so sudden
when you said you needed space.

Is there someone else?

Watch the road.

Why do you ask?

I had a feeling.

There's someone I'm falling for.

Are you dating?

We're not dating, but…

I spent the night at his place.

I see.

Stop at the next light.

It's probably green.

I don't care. Just stop.

Wait!

Is it…

over?

Didn't you say all that
because you want it to be?

Sorry. I'll call you.

ORANGE GROUP

I started playing the piano.

The piano's also a percussion instrument.

I guess music is all I have.

I played piano until I was 16.

Cymbals remind me of those toy monkeys,
so I just couldn't choose them.

SAE

Sae…

Sae!

KAI YUKI AGE 22
MOTTO: GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT

SAE HAGIO AGE 21
PEPPERS AND ONIONS (FOOD SHE HATES)

-Kai Yuki.
-So you're him.

Adorable.

I'd like for our Orange Group
to go camping!

This…

This isn't a handshake.

Enjoy your life.

I'm so pathetic.
