I'm about to die.

I'm still 7 years old. What a short life it was.

Who's there?

Jun! Jun Kouno!

I'll give this to you. It bloomed nearby.

Pretty.

Thank you.

Kouno?

Kouno?

Hasebe?

I ran! Breathe in deep and let it out! Whatever it takes!

Kouno.

Kouno.

Kouno! Kouno!

Wait, hold on!

What?

K...K...K...

Kouno?!

What?

Could you be... Jun Kouno?

Huh? Who're you?

Remember? It's me, Rino Hasebe!

You saved my life when I was about to die back in first grade!

I've been looking for you!

Remember? You held my hand like this!

Hands off.

Kouno?

Hey, look. My stomach is blowing up.

You're bothering me, Tanaka. - What?

Hey, Tanaka.

Oh Tanaka, you who doubts the feeling of love.

What now?

You know, I like Jun Kouno.

Really.

Probably since first grade? I finally found him!

He kinda looks like a delinquent now, but no doubt about it, he's Jun Kouno!

A delinquent? Give it up.

It's not as easy as saying whether you give it up or not!

I love him no matter what, beyond all reason!

If so, then do what you want!

Ko...

Ko...

Ko...

Kouno! You should go for it. Join the 4x100 meter relay!

That's...

Club President!

Let's start training hard now!

Nah, that's not possible. We're not as talented as him.

Club President!

It doesn't matter if you the skills or not.

Do you want to do it? Or not? Which is it?!

Not really. Anyway, it's such a drag.

You gotta join! - What's your basis?

My basis is... well...

I'll be your manager, Rino Hasebe.

Kouno will teach you the ropes!

Huh?

Hey, wait! Cut it out!

Aren't they ridiculously fast?

We should definitely scout her.

So cool!

Thank you so much.

Hey, hey!

How can you run that fast?

Keep your eyes straight and don't let your eyes wander.

Wave your hand firmly.

Then, think about putting your knees forward.

Look straight ahead...

Go!

I feel like I'm running faster now!

Hey...

Can I try and do it for myself too?

Of course, go ahead.

Alright, alright!

Raise your rhythm! Puff up your chest!

Retract your shoulder blades! Swing your arms!

Alright!

13.9 seconds!

Alright!

So glad.

Kouno!

What?

Go and get them!

Would you like to train with your senior?

What do you think, Club President? - Should we?

Well then...

As if you're gently grasping an egg in your palm!

Pull back firmly and keep your gaze straight!

Watch your tempo!

Knees in front! Forward!

Stiffen your ankles!

Press the tip of the baton into the other party's palm!

Yes!

Alright!

Okay!

Run!

Yes!

On to you, Jun! - Alright!

Dash, dash!

Dash, Jun! Concentrate on the final push!

Focus! Focus! Right here! Here!

How many seconds?!

A new record has been set!

One second left until the target time!

1 second! What a feat! - Seriously?!

Amazing!

Alright! You're the best!

Alright!

Kouno!

Let's go home together?

Fine by me.

Wanna get on the back?

Huh?

Physical labor?!

We're going to the venue now for the main match with this.

Seriously?

One month passed by so quickly.

You're right.

It's finally time!

We've done everything we can.

Anyway, everybody's looking hard at us!

Everyone's just jealous of us!

It's fine, let's switch! - It's fine! I want to send you off.

Why would you do this much for me...

Because I like you!

Huh?! W-W-Why?

Shut up!

I just like what I like!

I have to win this for you, Hasebe-senpai!

What? Did you say something? - It's nothing!

What? You said, 'for Hasebe'?

Let it go! Just look infront! - Wait, wait!

Be careful!

Seriously! - Sorry, I stepped on the flowers.

Hasebe-senpai!

Hey, Kouno.

You did very well.

Everyone was saying that they're holding a grudge against you.

What?

What? No way!

What're you...

What're you gonna do now that you made it such a fun summer?

So cute!

Hasebe-senpai!

What is it, Kouno?

I...

It's all thanks to you that I've fallen in love much more with running!

I made friends too.

It was such a lot of fun!

Thank you so much!

All my hard work has become a source of strength for you...

It has!

I'm so relieved!

That I fell in love with you.

Me too.

Same here. Hasebe-senpai...

I like you.

What?

What just...?

Hasebe?

Kouno...

He disappeared.

Who's that?

What?

Kouno, the guy who was just here with me.

Jun Kouno who kinda looks like a delinquent, from the track and field club who's extremely fast!

Huh?

What? As I was saying...

You know, he's...

Well...

Oh? His photo...

What are you on about?

Wait, wait...

Kouno disappeared?

Kouno himself, and his whole existence too?

No, no. Wait, hold on. I don't get it.

What? Hold on.

Calm down, Hasebe!

You were only in love with the idea of being in love.

What? No...

That's not it.

That's not true!

Keep your eyes straight and push your knees out.

That's what you were taught, right?

What?

Here, stand up!

Hey!

Hey, you forgot your phone!

Hey, you idiot!

Kouno!

Why did you disappear?

Kouno, will I never see you again?

No, that's not true!

My name is Rino Hasebe and I really want to join the light music club!

I'm the Club President, Kouno, in my third year.

Good to have you.

Kouno!

I like you!

Kouno!

What?

Again?

I'm worried

that I'll forget about you

What worries me

is that I'll probably get used to days like this

One thing I learned

is that I'm strong-willed

I feel it most

whenever I'm alone

What are you doing?

Can't you see? I'm looking for Jun Kouno!

Alright! - Would you know?

It's incredible, you know? The pull you feel when you start to like someone.

Gravity is nothing compared to this!

That's why, I...

I'm the happiest person in the world!

Kouno! Where are you?!

Excuse me.

Excuse us...

What?

Kouno!

I like you!

Me too!

It's deeper than I thought.

Huh?

Can love sometimes overwhelm even our sense of right and wrong?

Oh, shut up.

Anyway, what about entrance exams?

Me? I'll work.

What? Did you fail?!

No, rather, I feel like it's not for me.

You're surprisingly an idiot.

You're the idiot!

No, I passed! - What? Really?

I told you, I passed. - Really?

Why not congratulate me? Congrats, congrats!

You know...

Hey, wait... This club's kinda insane?

Are you alright? - Yeah, I'm fine.

I'll be home soon.

Sushi?

They've got quite a lot.

Don't get carried away, you brats!

How dare you speak ill of your parents while you're still living under their roof, you damn brats!

We apologize, Mr. Jun! - Sorry!

Be grateful to your parents!

Hey, welcome.

Miss?

Well, I...

Are you applying to work part-time here?

Yes, you're hired.

Jun, you move too fast. - What? Was I wrong?

You're not. I'm Rino Hasebe.

This is my colleague, Nozumi Hanamori. - Hello.

Hanamori is going on her maternity leave soon. You came at the right time.

I mean... - Right?

And, I'm the store manager.

Jun Kouno!

What?

Kouno?

How do you know my former family name?

What? Former name?

Well, I go by Arai now.

I see.

That's a tough situation.

Not really.

So good!

So, how is she like?

Her name's Kyoko?

She's currently on a business trip to another branch.

Moreover, he's marrying into the family, right?

Cheating is bad, I tell you.

We enjoyed the food. - Thank you so much!

Feel like giving up now?

Even if I do, what am I supposed to do about this racing heart that won't stop pounding?

You can't stop that.

Really?

I mean, we met again.

I can't fight against that fate anymore.

I do want to run away from it but

we still have to fall in love no matter what!

Hey!

You're making love the goal now.

Put yourself in his shoes for a moment?

Huh? What do you mean?

I said, 'will you go on a date with me?'

Well, a date?

Of course, I'll run it by Kyoko!

I know this is a bad thing I'm doing.

But please give me a chance!

What should I do?

I'll do my best at work!

Please!

Alright, by ironing.

What?

Only when you can get better at getting rid of crinkles with an iron.

Are you sure?

You have time until the 2nd of next month before Kyoko gets back.

Sure!

You know?

Jun's only playing with you.

Ms. Hanamori.

How can I remove these kinds of wrinkles on the shirt's sleeves more effectively?

As I said, why go through all that?

I like him.

You're so simple.

But, I think falling in love is a simple thing.

I mean, it doesn't need any logic at all,

like 0.000000000... not even one millimeter.

Give it up. That's just love at first sight.

Why? Isn't that the same with the father of the baby you're carrying?

I'm raising it on my own.

I am hyper-single mother.

Please forgive me!

It's alright.

Love or affection won't do. You've got to take better care of yourself.

I can't stand to see you get hurt.

You're so kind, Ms. Hanamori.

What do you mean?

Kind people

will definitely give birth to kind children.

Children? What are you saying?

I mean it. Good work today!

Good work.

Alright.

Thank you for your help today.

Morning.

Oh? What about Ms. Kyoko?

Well today, I will take over Kyoko's craft so I'll take watch today.

What? I thought she's coming back today.

I think she is back.

My bad.

It looked like you were trying real hard to compete against Kyoko,

and it kinda felt like she was still around, you know?

This store is a tribute to Kyoko's memory.

Is that so?

She was kinda against me quitting my job and taking over the store.

I wonder if she's seeing it?

The store is a bit polished up now.

What? Why are you crying?

I'm sorry.

I just...

Seeing the person I like,

talk about the person who matters to them most,

and as I was listening to you,

it made me come to like her too.

Thank you, Hanamori.

Thank you so much. - All good.

Well then, go ahead. - Sure.

Show me what you've got.

That's nice.

Will you grant my request?

Let's see...

I'm happy you feel that way for me, but I still care for Kyoko...

I understand.

But...

would you mind facing me for a moment?

I'm asking!

Well, as you can see, I'm clumsy.

That makes you charming.

I'm a bit stubborn, if I'm being honest.

If you're stubborn, I won't yield.

I was really terrible back then.

I caused a lot of troubles for people.

Then, let's apologize to them together!

If it gets dirty, let's wash it together.

If there are wrinkles, let's smooth them out together.

So...

Please live with me!

Mr. Jun...

I like you.

Me too.

I also...

Rino, I...

I like you too.

I've had enough.

What the heck is going on?

Are you okay, Rino?

Ms. Hanamori.

Rino, could you be...

No...

Is this about Mr. Jun?

Jun? Who's he?

It's nothing.

Don't mind what I said.

What?

I don't think you'll ever believe such a ridiculous story.

Jun, he...

That Kouno, he...

Don't tell me disappeared?

What?

How...?

I know.

It was the same for me.

What?

Really?

With the person you loved as well?

So I kinda understand how you feel.

Is that so?

Well, I just don't know what to do anymore!

Maybe it's better if no one falls in love?

That's just sad!

I...

Jun Kouno is my soulmate!

Soulmate?

Well, that's...

Aren't you just deluding yourself by saying that?

I'm not!

I'm not...

No, that's not it. No...

What?

That's pretty heartbreaking.

It's not heartbreaking. I don't get what this is about.

Is this all my fault?

They all disappear once they meet me.

You're not the only one having a hard time.

Jun Kouno disappears once our feelings become mutual.

And then, he appears again.

Disappears.

Since he disappeared, that means he really existed, right?

What so you mean?

I'm off to work.

Hey, Tanaka.

Do you know something?

You're the only one who doesn't know,

Bye.

I'm probably exhausted.

Hey, Hasebe.

Hey!

You're not eating at all.

I ate yesterday.

I'm talking about now.

Oh, really?

Anyway, why are you here, Tanaka?

I wonder what it would feel like coming to the university that failed me.

It does bother you.

They have this too.

"Freshman's welcoming barbecue."

An encounter is waiting for you.

It's fine.

Even if I meet someone new, they're gonna disappear, anyway!

Hold on!

Sorry for suddenly butting in.

But 'to disappear'?

That won't do. Please don't say that.

That's okay now.

Well, I'll probably say the same thing again tomorrow.

Alright, say 'cheese'!

What?

What's your name. - Rino Hasebe.

Rino Hasebe, got it. - I'm Tanaka.

Rino Hasebe and Tanaka. Alright.

Hey, is that...

I'm late!

I'm Jun.

Jun Kouno. Pleased to meet you.

Hey, Jun!

Huh?

You guys!

Eat more! Let's get more thrilled!

I'll take all this meat. - You eat too much!

It's fine! Please let me eat it!

I'm Jun! Jun Kouno!

Jun! Jun!

Jun! Jun!

I'm Jun! Jun Kouno! Nice to meet you all!

I'm Jun! Nice to meet you!

Hey, you're Hasebe, right? Do you eat meat?

I'm fine.

It's good!

The last person who wants to eat the meat!

Are there more?

I can still go!

Heard him?

I will gladly take it for you!

I'll dig in~ mammoth! Pardon me!

I'm done!

It just has to be meat!

Are you having fun?

Don't worry about me.

Don't you want some meat? It's freaking delicious!

Don't you think you're eating too much?

We came here today to fill up as much as we can!

If I ate that much, I'll definitely feel sick later on.

Now or then doesn't matter!

Do what you want to do, enjoy the moment, and live in the present!

Say, 'cheese'!

Yay...

Lemme see.

Looking good.

I'll send it.

Alright, you guys! Let's play volleyball!

Shall we play?

My favorite sport in the world is volleyball!

Volleyball!

Right, I'll take a photo of you too.

No, I'm good.

Oh?

What's wrong?

It's not here. - What is?

My phone.

I'll ring it. What's your number?

I don't remember.

Did you just bought it?

Well...

Anyway, let's look for it? I'll help.

I don't remember touching it.

Alright, I'll try looking that way.

What? Is this...

No.

Hey, what about data?

It's fine. I have backup for it.

Oh, it should be fine then!

Today...

That's the only thing that holds all my memories of today.

I don't wanna forget how I had so much fun today!

I don't think you'll forget about it soon.

I will.

Because today will never come again.

We're alive in this moment.

That's why, I have to leave memories of every single day.

Hold the other end.

What?

They're important memories, right?

Let's do this. Ready, go!

Wait!

Hold on, you're not holding it at all! You have to move as well!

So heavy! - Did you see it?

How do you expect me to see it now?!

That's impossible!

It might be there now.

You're lying! You didn't get a look!

You didn't even raise it up a bit!

You only raised it this much, I'm telling you!

Let's seriously look for it now.

You weren't serious a while ago then?

Sorry. Thanks.

It's alright.

W-What?!

What?! Really?!

It was under the stairs.

Thank you!

Sorry!

Sorry, my bad!

Sorry, sorry!

Don't give me that!

Let me stand up.

Thanks!

Did you come? Why didn't you two come?

Well, I kinda lost my phone and we were both looking for it.

Well, I'm going this way.

Sure, see you tomorrow.

What?

Wait, Kouno! What about your train?!

I didn't think about what to say to you.

What?

Well, here...

What's this?

Thank you so much for today.

Hasebe.

Bye!

Are you alright?!

That hurt.

Rino Hasebe. I lost my phone during the Freshmen's Welcoming Barbeque and she helped me look for it. I'm a bit interested in her.

Rino Hasebe. I lost my phone during the Freshmen's Welcoming Barbeque and she helped me look for it.

What's wrong, Hasebe?

How was he? Jun Kouno?

Nothing. Ordinary.

I see.

Well, he's a good guy.

I guess I should leave it be for now.

Well, love isn't everything after all.

Excuse me, what's your order?

Morning, Kouno. - Morning.

Yesterday was fun, huh?

It was!

How's your phone? It's not broken, is it?

Well, it's fine, it seems.

I see. Good then.

So, who're you?

What?

Come on, I'm Rino Hasebe.

Hasebe, huh?

Sorry.

It's fine.

Anyway, so you usually keep to yourself, huh?

What? Didn't I keep to myself yesterday?

Rather, you were such in high spirits...

To be honest, you were annoying.

I see.

It must have been fun.

Sorry.

I didn't mean to hide,

or so I thought...

His memory only lasts for one day?

Technically speaking, he said he forgets when he sleeps.

It looks like the injuries he sustained in a car accident when he was 6 years old have flared up again.

I see.

He has it rough.

The fact that his memory only lasts for one day...

Hey, Jun Jun! - Jun Jun!

You're eating again, Jun Jun! You eat so much, don't you?

That means he can't make memories, right?

Well, I definitely don't remember.

Should you really be acting?

Even when you talked that much? - No, that's such a chore.

Kouno...

You're Hasebe, right?

So...

If I remember well, you helped me look for my phone the other day, right?

That was during the barbeque...

Kouno.

Where do you live?

Are you sure? You're not pushing yourself?

I'm not.

Please let me pick him up at 7:45 every morning.

That would be a big help.

He might be a bit fussy in the morning so...

Likewise. Please take care of him.

Leave him to me!

I'm Rino Hasebe. - Rino Hasebe.

What a cute name. - Thank you so much.

It it's out of pity, then nevermind.

It's not.

I kinda had a fried in the past who said the same thing to me but,

in the end, doing it everyday became very tough for them, you know?

I'm not that person.

Every morning?

I'm sure that's gonna become such a hassle someday soon.

So what?

What?

You keep saying, 'in the past', or 'someday'.

Where are you right now, Kouno?

You're right here, aren't you? In front of me.

You said it, Kouno.

'Do what you want to do, enjoy the moment.'

'Live in the present.'

We're alive in this very moment.

So you need to leave memories of your daily life.

That time, I...

I pretended I didn't feel anything.

I fell in love with you,

and got scared to get hurt someday.

But as of now,

I'm more frightened to tell you the truth.

I like you, Kouno!

Bye! See you tomorrow.

Hasebe will come pick me up starting tomorrow. I'm happy.

It's not okay!

Let's live today to the fullest.

I can't remember anything!

But you have to show up today.

Let's live today to the fullest.

No! I don't wanna do anything! - Let's take it one day at a time, okay?

When you get back home, tell me about how your day went, okay?

Jun, live today!

No! I'll forget anyway!

He might be a bit fussy in the morning so...

Likewise. Please take care of him.

Good morning, Kouno.

Oh, sorry.

I'm Rino Hasebe.

Nice to meet you.

Why are you here?

I've decided to come pick you up every morning, starting today!

Good morning, Kouno!

Good morning.

Have a good one.

We're going. - I leave him in your care.

Let's go! I'm not a suspicious person.

We'll be late!

Dash!

Have a good one.

Looks like you're doing well.

Really?

Yeah, it makes me feel sluggish.

Sorry, I keep talking about me.

Not a problem.

Because I can redirect the energy I would have used for romance to other things.

Nothing less from you, Tanaka. You're on another level.

I don't wanna hear that from you.

But,

it's such an amazing feeling, being able to see the person you like everyday!

You're in love everyday, you know!

I heard you've been confessing your feelings every day for the past month since then?

But in Kouno's case, it looks like a first time for him everyday.

I like you, Kouno!

What? Really...

I'm thankful but...

Please read it.

Stay healthy tomorrow as well.

Bye.

Bye.

Morning, Kouno.

You're...

I'm...

Wait.

You're...

Let's see...

I like you, Kouno!

What? Really...

I'm thankful but...

Stay healthy tomorrow as well.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye!

Morning, Kouno.

Something in me feels like I remember you.

What? Really?

I like you, Jun!

That's... I'm thankful but...

Stay healthy tomorrow as well.

Bye.

Morning, Jun.

Who are you?

Well...

I'm...

Every morning...

I'm kidding.

You're Hasebe, right?

What?! It's fine! No need to show me that!

Thank you! I have quite a lot.

No, we're not doing trades. We have to go!

'I like you, Kouno.' - You don't have to say it!

'Today, in my dream, you...' - No, stop it!

Thanks for the meal!

The wind feels good.

How is it? How does it feel to be 20 years old?

I want to drink more, Senpai!

You're a lost cause!

Woah! Give me a break!

Well then, I'm headed this way.

What? Going home already? - Let's go all out, all out!

I do wanna go with you, but I might cause you problems in the morning.

What? It'll be fine! - Stop with the fuss!

Let's go, Jun!

But when I sleep, my memories...

You don't have to sleep!

I won't sleep too. We can stay up the whole night.

We'd like to have more of Jun Jun please!

Yay!

Alright! Let's go! Jun Jun! Jun Jun!

Please don't let this night

turn into morning!

The more I think about it

the more I wish for it

The red second hand

mocks me like that

Just absorb this time

I've had enough.

Seriously, my throat hurts.

I'm done. I guess we can call this done.

Can we go home now? - You can.

Should we? - Let's go.

I wanna get in the bath. - Let's go home?

I'm kinda tired of singing now.

For real?

I want to read a book.

You get it? I want to calm down.

I've had enough of singing!

Please don't let this night

turn into morning!

The more I think about it

the more I wish for it

Leave me alone

Tears are flowing down your cheeks

We are free

I told you that someday

It's like I didn't even

think about today

Hasebe.

Jun, don't sleep!

What's with that move?

A dance that will distract you from feeling drowsy.

Really?

Wow, you're so sleepy, you reacted too late.

Jun.

I like you.

Thank you.

Hey, let's talk until morning!

What should we talk about?

What would be good?

Then, let's talk about how we first met up to this point in time.

Okay!

We first met in the university cafeteria.

What? Was that so?

Then...

That time, I...

I said, 'I don't have to meet anyone.'

'Whoever I meet, they're bound to disappear anyway,'

and then you said,

'That won't do. Please don't say that!'

No way.

Then, after that, we went to that barbeque event...

After that...

Sorry.

You can sleep if you want to.

But...

It's alright.

I'll meet you in you dreams, sprinting as fast as I can to you.

I like you, Hasebe.

Don't disappear...

Jun is getting sleepy, so I'll take him home now. - Rino Hasebe

Hasebe...

To Kouno, I like you. I like you today too. Actually, today is already day 22 of writing letters to you. But every time I write a letter or see you, I get really nervous. Why is that, you might ask? Well, Kouno, you keep entering the wrong classroom. You did that yesterday too. Lol. So I get nervous every day.

Seriously, you're just drunk.

You know what?

I had decided to tell you properly that I like you before anything else.

We can leave it for later.

Sure?

Yes, go ahead.

I really like you!

What?

You weren't watching.

I was.

Then why did the guy fall for her?

Well, it wasn't just for one thing.

Rather, all of these are lies anyway.

How cold.

Well, it's easy to follow by logic.

But feelings are temporary, right?

Ultimately, people cannot understand each other.

Do you honestly believe that?

What about?

Nothing.

Alright. I won't like Jun anymore.

Is that enough for you?

His memory only lasts for one day.

That looks like straight out of a movie.

If so, it's still a happy ending, right?

Ending? Where exactly is the end?

You don't even know what love is.

Sorry.

I am so in love with you!

No.

What are you doing?

Can't you see? I'm looking for Jun Kouno!

Alright!

Would you know?

It's incredible, you know? The pull you feel when you start to like someone.

Gravity is nothing compared to this!

That's why, I...

I'm the happiest person in the world!

You look stupid.

T-T-There you are! You're here!

I'm so happy! Am I? Which is it?!

What's wrong?

Morning, Jun!

Morning.

Oh? Shouldn't you be at school today?

Rest day.

But I still came.

Thank you so much.

It's fine.

Should we do something?

Well, then...

What about a kiss?

Hey, wait.

Sorry, I was kidding.

Oh, right! How about a date?

There are butterflies!

He's fishing. - Fishing.

I wanna try fishing. - Really? Me too.

Let's do it next time? - We should.

Let's buy some tools. - I have some at home.

Really?

Is this where we had the barbeque? - You remember!

I wrote it down.

Hey, you were there at the freshmen barbeque welcoming party too.

I was.

I lost my phone here? And you helped me find it?

That's right.

Everyone went out to play, and we were left behind, just the two of us.

Seriously? - For real.

Then, we raised this massive sofa up!

A sofa?! - Yes!

Then, we found it, I walked you home.

I see. Thank you.

Is that all you wrote down?

I see.

What?

It's nothing. Let's go.

Sorry, sorry. My bad.

Was it fun?

Ordinary.

What? Why?

Well, I was pushed into eating meat.

For real? - Yes, by you.

Me? No way! - I'm telling the truth!

That's not true! I wouldn't do that!

Sorry, thanks for waiting.

Hey, what's that?

Come on, just take a look.

Oh, nevermind. - Which is it?

Behold. - A guitar?!

Yes!

Thanks. Can I let you carry this?

Thanks.

Can I leave it here?

Alright.

What? Right here?

I'm nervous.

Alright, here I go, Jun.

Go for it.

I'm worried

that I'll forget about you

What worries me

is that I'll probably get used to days like this

One thing I learned

is that I'm strong-willed

I feel it most

whenever I'm alone

Please don't let this night

turn into morning!

The more I think about it

the more I wish for it

The red second hand

mocks me like that

Just absorb this time

Sometimes I imitate you

and pick up the guitar

I try to remember your fingers pressing C7

What do you think?

You were freaking awesome! That was so good!

Thanks.

Thank you.

Here, I'll give this to you.

What?

What? Why this messed up flower?

Right?

I just picked it up.

Really? Thanks.

But this...

But this... you see...

What?

Here I go. - Have at it.

Here!

I can't see it!

One more, your turn. - I can't see it at all.

Here I go. - Have at it.

No way!

No way!

Oh? I thought you were going to propose to me once you win against me?

What's that about?

What? You didn't write about it?

You said you'll be training real hard.

Is that so?

I was lying.

Don't lie. Don't do that one thing.

My bad.

Right, here I go.

Rino Hasebe.

Yes?

We met at the university cafeteria.

And then, we had barbeque together.

And then, you told me you like me everyday.

And then, we took classes together.

Went home together, played badminton together.

And then, we were even together yesterday.

Together...

Sorry.

Sorry, let's go.

Alright!

It's so warm.

What is?

My swaying shoulders.

Hey, listen to my future.

One day, I'll marry you,

and we'll live in a house with a red roof.

Why red?

I don't know. I feel like it emits happiness.

And then?

We'll have one Shiba Inu in the garden.

We'll have three kids.

Boy - girl - boy.

I prefer girl - girl - boy.

That's good. Let's do that.

Have we had this conversation plenty of times too?

Can I lay on your chest?

Jun...

Don't sleep anymore.

I don't want you to disappear.

I want you to keep remembering!

Alright.

I'll never sleep again, then.

Rino?

Rino.

Rino?

Rino.

Rino?

Rino?

Rino?

Rino!

Oh?

What are you doing here?

Hey, Hasebe.

Hey!

It'll be alright.

What is?

He'll forget everything when tomorrow comes anyway.

Jun?

Hey.

Hey, wait.

Hasebe!

I thought you'll be in love with Jun everyday?!

See him everyday, confess to him everyday.

Aren't you the happiest person in the world?

I can't be the happiest person in the world!

There's no way I'd be the happiest person in the world!

I'm not smart and I'm always alone.

The person I like forgets me everyday.

No matter how many memories he makes, they'll all be gone tomorrow.

What now?

You disappointed?

I...

I look stupid, worrying over things like this, don't I?!

But... But...

This is all I can worry about!

That's me, unfortunately!

I always looked up to you, Hasebe.

To be so deeply in love that it's almost embarrassing.

You get into conflict.

Your love is just overwhelming.

You're not looking at the past, nor the future.

You only have now to look forward to.

I was jealous of you too.

But you're who you are.

That's why...

Don't you ever say you're alone again.

I'm going back.

Rino?

Has Jun returned home?

I thought you were together?

Well...

He left and haven't come back yet.

Is that so?

His phone?

I can't call.

I'll look for him too.

I'm sorry. Thank you so much!

Reach out to me if anything happens!

I will!

Jun!

Jun!

Jun!

Jun!

Why...

Why do you always...

Why do you always disappear right infront of me?!

Why does everyone disappear and leave me behind?

Why Ms. Hanamori too?

Oh?

Ms. Hanamori?

You doing good?

You're not, huh?

Wait, why?

What? I heard your voice.

No...

Didn't you disappear?

Don't erase me! Why did I disappear?

Wait, I don't get it!

After all, it's not like our feelings became mutual.

After all, I...

You did like Kazu, didn't you?

Mr. Kazu?

Me too.

Rino, I...

I like you too.

Yes, that time, he disappeared.

It wasn't Kazu who disappeared.

What?

I do like you but...

I'm sorry.

That's enough for me.

Please give Ms. Kyoko more of your attention now.

As much as you can until you feel better.

It'll become a memory someday,

until you can finally move forward with a smile on your face.

It's you who disappeared.

You stepped aside out of consideration for Kazu.

But because you liked him so much,

and all the memories were painful for you,

you simply swapped out the reality of the memory of him disappearing.

However,

you taught me the most important thing.

Jun Kouno is my soulmate!

Aren't you just deluding yourself by saying that?

I'm not!

I'm not...

No, that's not it. No...

Even if you pretend to say that

you firmly confronted love, romance, and fate,

once a month has passed after you broke up,

half a year, or maybe a year,

whatever you ate together,

where you were and what you guys talked about,

your memories will fade quickly,

so you'll conveniently forget about them and move on.

I won't forget.

No, you'll forget about it one day.

Right now...

All I can say is that there is a part of me that don't want to forget.

I can't think about what's up ahead!

Rino...

You're naive.

Even if I say so,

but I'm also worrying about what would happen next.

I've loosened up now.

It's all thanks to you, Rino.

Is that so?

Nozumi.

Life after being together

is much longer than the time you spend falling in love.

There's happiness to be found in solitude too, you know.

Come here! Right.

See you, Rino.

You said you'd never forget that time.

But don't you think you're forgetting already?

What?

I...

Have I forgotten?

I did?

The one I met was...

What? Kouno?!

It's been a while, senpai. I'm Koumoto.

What? Koumoto?

I've been looking for you!

Remember? You held my hand like this!

Hands off.

It's finally time!

We've done everything we can.

Anyway, everybody's looking hard at us!

Everyone's just jealous of us!

Why would you do this much for me...

Because I like you!

Hasebe-senpai, I also...

I like you.

What?

It was good up to that point, though.

Since then, you got really crazy.

Huh?

Koumoto!

This crush will definitely turn into love.

And then we'll get married, we'll have 4 kids,

we'll have the strongest relay team!

I want to experience this journey called life together with you.

That's too much!

Too much...

Too much?

Kouno?!

No, Koumoto!

Did you find Jun?! - No...

Same here. Let's look at other spots.

It was Koumoto!

That name brings memories.

You finally realized. How no one actually disappeared.

No one... disappeared?

Wait, wait! Then...

After that one, Kouno from the light music club? What happened?

Kondo, you mean?

Kondo?!

Let's leave those guys alone who are too smart

Look at a band that sings things like this

because we have a landslide victory

I guess they just nod with a cold face

Hey kill me baby, end my life

Let me drown in your overflowing love

That's what I swear to the tiles in the bathroom that I don't need anymore

Hey kill me baby, end my life

Please share your overflowing love with me

Even 1/100th is fine

Give me love and greenery for my hometown

My name is Rino Hasebe and I really want to join the light music club!

I'm the Club President, Kondo, in my third year. Good to have you.

K-Kondo...

I like you!

Kondo!

Hey, I want to be able to play too.

What?

Please teach me.

If you're fine with me, I'll teach you.

Sure!

And then, this is how you play A.

Like this.

I'll try playing it a little, then try singing it.

Feel it

Please don't let this night

Please don't let this night

turn into morning!

turn into morning!

The more I think about it

The more I think about it

the more I wish for it

The red second...

With my ex-girlfriend's way of singing, it was a little more...

Forget about your girlfriend!

Sorry, it's just...

This is wrong. Sorry, it's not working.

What?

What?!

Well, that time was kinda harsh.

I can understand, but you're too extreme.

Are you okay?

But you know, things were progressing properly, weren't they?

Well, that's...

The guy I met in front of the station...

Tanokura, right?

Why are you giving up? I thought you liked her?

I wish this feeling would just go away.

Don't!

Don't say that!

I mean, I'm just causing trouble to those around me.

Me confessing will only pose as a problem for them.

Moreover,

I don't want it to seem like I'm taking advantage of this!

What do you mean?!

That's just an excuse!

Everyone's hearts ache, yet they still muster up the courage.

You work much harder than any of them, Tanokura!

Why...

Why would you do that much for me?

Because I don't want you to deny the love you're feeling right now!

Tanokura!

Goodluck!

Thank you.

I like you.

Please go out with me.

Yes.

If you'd take me as I am.

What? Really?

Wait, let's flip that. Are you okay with me?

Oh, right.

I'm the worst.

I didn't know anything.

But you know what sadness feels like, don't you?

That's why, you're kind.

Hey! You okay?

You're kind, Tanaka.

Of course.

I see.

You've been through so much all this time.

Thank you, Tanaka.

Let's go.

Get on.

Alright.

All this time,

I'm sorry for trying to forget.

I'm really sorry.

All of it, every bit of it, was precious time.

Everyone.

For having met you,

thank you.

Who's there?

Jun. Jun Kouno!

I'm glad.

I'll give this to you.

It bloomed nearby.

Flowers...

I remember this happened before.

Rino.

Don't disappear anymore.

I'm sorry.

I won't disappear anymore.

Me too.

I won't forget.

Rino Hasebe.

We met in the university cafeteria.

And then, we had barbeque together.

And then, you told me you like me everyday.

And then, we took classes together.

Went home together,

played badminton together.

And then...

And then...

Disappear all you want.

I won't erase you in my memory.

Thank you.

I like you.

Me too.

I like you.

Really?

Yes, alright.

Let's get going? - Let's go.

He's been sleeping all this time.

Wake up!

You sleep too much. - Is it over?

It is. It's finished. - So quick!

You're crazy. You slept the entire time.

I told you, this will come up in the exam.

What? Tutor me? - No way.

Sorry! Please break up with me!

Well, I'm not sure what I said until yesterday but...

Well...

Rino, I see you as just my friend...

Understood. Let's break up then.

And then,

please go out with me!

What? No, no...

What?

Really?

Here.

Thank you.

Jun.

I like you.

Me too.

I love you so much.

Really?

UNDEAD LOVERS
