I...
...think I like you.
Why can't you see that?
Why? Why is that?
Why is... what?
What is going on?
I knew it. You have something to confess?
What is this about?!
Explain!
What is going on, Yuna?
Well...
Umm, I actually...
What dreams?
Dreams won't fill your tummy.
I'll admit, I believed you were capable of protecting Yuna from anything.
Truthfully, I didn't think something like this could happen.
I'm sorry!
I'll deal with this somehow.
Yuna, please be realistic here.
In this situation, we have to keep our cool.
Don't let your worries show.
Kondou here.
Come in.
Excuse me.
Kon!
As of today, you're fired!
I can't let you be at Yuna's side for another second.
If you understand, please leave.
Yes.
He isn't at fault. I'm to blame, so...
Yuna, I'm disappointed in you as well.
You said that you wanted to take on the world,
yet you're stumbling over such a minor love affair.
But, I'm hoping you'll change your tone after seeing this.
You've been offered a role in a Hollywood production.
Hollywood?!
Amazing!
Sorry.
The Director was apparently taken in by your "clean and lovely" image.
If someone has fun writing up your sordid bodyguard scandal,
this offer will most definitely disappear.
Plus, he won't get away unscathed either.
He'll get chased around by the press.
His family's dirty laundry will all be aired publicly.
He won't be able to get a semi-decent job, let alone pursue his dream.
Meaning, he won't have a chance at finding an Observatory job, right?
I know what you're going to say.
I'm fired, right?
First, explain what really happened.
So it is true, right?
You said that you returned as her bodyguard, right?
I did.
I still believe that.
Even if you do...
No, more like fool yourself into believing it, she may not!
I had a bad feeling from the first time you guys met.
Who could have predicted it would become a reality.
Umm, I'm really...
Fired!
You brought it on yourself.
I understand.
Excuse me.
This is where you prove yourself, Kouhei!
I've been waiting for you.
For someone like yourself, you sure took your time.
What you see in that picture was just an impulsive mistake.
Please don't publicize it.
Whether or not it was impulsive, the fact remains that it happened.
I've said this before, but...
Pictures don't lie.
Please!
I don't care what happens to me.
But, Yuna...
More self-less prattle?
If its within my power, I'll do anything!
So, please...
10 Million.
Eh?
If you give me 10 million, I'll do what you want.
Well, I seriously doubt you can manage that sum yourself.
Don't you think you're misunderstanding the situation?
Eh?
Attaining your master's affections,
exceeding your role as her bodyguard by working so hard,
and looking forward to the ensuing 'reward'?
Not at all! I'm not after a reward.
Then, you're telling me you're serious?
The well-mannered and beautiful hit star, Han Yuna,
is 'snacking' on a naive little bodyguard.
That headline would definitely be appealing.
For me, its the best possible prey.
For you guys, its the worst possible outcome, right?
Whenever I see that "hero of justice" face of yours, I want to throw up.
Hurry up and leave.
Aya!
Hey, that's dangerous!
I'm fine!
See, I'm doing just fine, right?
You really are great at catching me, Doc.
Cut!
Wow, that was great!
This location is just perfect!
Huh?
Right, Takanabe?
Hey!
I want to play more!
I will protect you!
Calm down. Calm down!
Hey, is that really true?
"That moment" between Yuna and Kouhei was captured,
and the picture was sent to your management?
If you cut it short, yes.
Manager Serizawa got pissed, fired Kouhei, and replaced him with me.
Damn you Kouhei!
Putting Yuna in such a dangerous position...
I can't leave this to him.
I will...
I will protect Yuna.
Attaining your master's affections,
exceeding your role as her bodyguard by working so hard,
and looking forward to the ensuing 'reward'?
Not at all! I'm not after a reward.
Then, you're telling me you're serious?
What should I do?
Translators, koitsu, yuta_rule, fudgey_lumpkins
Everything else, koitsu
Oppa~ Fansubs Presents, My 99 Days with a Star!
All clear.
Go ahead.
Cactus is...?
Kouhei was fired from the company.
Fired from the company?
Yes.
But, it couldn't be helped.
For a bodyguard to be in a relationship with his mark is taboo.
Umm, so you really have feelings for Kouhei...?
Was that picture real-
Good work.
Sorry to have kept you.
You're dismissed for today.
Yes ma'am.
Excuse me.
That's what I thought.
It's just too outlandish.
I'm home.
Kouhei, Congratulations!
Congratulations!
Congratulations on your First Love!
What is this?
But, this is such a rare chance!
My 40 year old little brother is finally becoming a man.
As your sister, how could I control my joy?!
Congrats! Congrats!
Kouhei, you sure do it right, when you do!
What the hell?!
Kouhei, I didn't know about this!
I didn't know!
Wait, stop it Mitsy!
All of you, quit it already!
Kissing such a top star...
Kouhei, you really are a player.
Give me that!
Additionally, I'll be marrying a star from the world of sumo!
Eh? No way!
You were serious when you said that before?
His Sumo Dojo is huge!
Plus, you'll be surrounded by tons of his students.
He'll be way nicer to you than Kouhei.
Eh? I don't want to!
I don't want to eat Sumo Stew every morning!
Hey, Kouhei, say something!
Come on, Sumo Stew is something you can put up with.
You'll be with your mom, so go.
That's right!
If it weren't for you guys, Kouhei's lips would have been mine!
Mitsy!
Geez.
Either way, I'm unemployed.
There is no way I can look after you.
Eh?
Could that photo be the cause?
So you won't be seeing Yuna anymore?
Hey, you guys go on to that Sumo Dojo.
Eh, no way. No way!
Hey, Kouhei, I don't want to become a Sumo wrestler!
Is that true?
The photo was sent to our house too, so there is no doubt.
I knew there was some chemistry, but who knew it had gone that far?
Hey, what should we do?
If it gets put in some magazine, we'll be swarmed by reporters too, right?
What'll happen to Kouhei?!
I don't think Manager Serizawa would allow their relationship!
Takanabe.
Sorry to call you out like this.
There is something I had to ask you.
Could it be about Yuna?
I am so sorry.
Yeah, but what is the photographer asking for?
He asked me to prepare 10 million.
10 million?!
But, I don't even know if that would end this.
Is money even his real goal?
Could you leave this to me?
Eh?
I've got an idea.
Leave it to me.
Takanabe?
But, there is something I'd like to tell you.
I'm not saying these things just for the sake of the film.
I love Yuna.
This being said, I have no intention of getting in the way of her acting career.
What do you say?
Kouhei, look.
Husband and Wife Squids!
Why are you so dull?!
If you've got complaints, don't do it!
I see.
So your giving me attitude.
Then, should I have you pay rent?
You damn unemployed.
Can you pay it, Kouhei?
Ah! It's Yuna's little brother!
Tae Sung!
Kouhei, can I have a moment?
I see! So Momo said that?
Sorry to have worried you.
Here.
I'm fine. There is a limit to what the media can do to me.
But, in Yuna's case...
Kouhei, do you like my sister?
Do you like her?
I...
can't do anything but sit still and wait.
It's pathetic, right?
You were the one who told me that,
"Living in different worlds" is not an issue.
You also said, "If you live positively, you can achieve anything.", right?
Kouhei, I have a request to make.
Why?
Why are you here?
Do you even understand the current situation?
Yes.
This... is something from Tae Sung.
From Tae Sung?
He was worried about you.
Because you told everyone that you believed in me...
I thought I should try my best and give this life another shot...
Thank you Sis.
I have faith in you too.
No matter what the people are saying...
I'm on your side...
That's why...
I hope you have faith in your own feelings...
I wish you happiness.
Plus, he won't get away unscathed either.
He'll get chased around by the press.
His family's dirty laundry will all be aired publicly.
He won't be able to get a semi-decent job, let alone pursue his dream.
That was a lie.
So please don't ever come here again.
You just seemed so inexperienced in love that I wanted to tease you a bit.
It was all a lie.
I see...
It's a relief to hear that.
I mean, I was pretty sure that was the case...
but if it weren't, then we'd have a predicament.
You see... I'm just a star nerd...
You could say its not my style... or rather, I'd just be clueless on how to react.
Right?
Umm...
I don't mind if its just an act...
Just once more could you...
smile for me?
I...
really liked watching you smile.
A reward for having stuck it out with such a willful and unpredictable actress?
Thank you.
I've enjoyed being under your care!
Goodbye.
What a surprise...
Can't believe THE Takanabe Yamato actually came to pay a dude like me a visit.
That's right.
So? What is it you want?
I have a favor to ask.
A favor?
Previously, you took a photo of Yuna and that bodyguard of hers...
I was wondering if there's a way to cover it up?
Cover it up because...
you don't want it affecting your drama's ratings?
I can't say that it hasn't crossed my mind...
However, if I had to speak my mind...
I want to protect the one I love.
The one you love?
10 million was the sum right?
10 million to get rid of that photo?
What is this?
What a fat kid!
Obviously overeating.
So, what's with this?
Actually...
That's...
Superstar Takanabe Yamato's unknown past.
Eh?
I'm not surprised by your shock.
It really is significantly different from my current self.
Don't tell me...
you're giving me this in exchange?
Keep the change.
This sort of photo...
isn't even worth 500 yen.
Eh?!
Sorry that I couldn't meet your expectations.
500 yen?
One coin?
Ah.
I have a good idea.
You too might just be able to save the one you love.
What do you think?
Shall we do it?
I wonder if Kouhei met up with her alright.
I'm sure everything's fine.
So, what did you write in the letter, Tae Sung?
Ah... sorry.
Thank you.
So? What did you write?
Tell me.
Nope!
Why?
Mmm! It's delicious!
The appearance of another rival?
Plus, this one seems to be a commoner like us.
Yet still cute.
Hey... Kuma what brings you here all of a sudden?
Kuma?
Kouhei!
Haven't I already told you to call me Kozue?
But it's just easier that way.
Kozue?
Kouhei.
You lied, didn't you?
Yes.
What do you mean by "Yes"...
It was such a good opportunity for you to work in an observatory again...
And you actually turned it down yourself...
Sorry.
Turning down the job at the observatory...
Was it because of Yuna?
Eh?
Does that mean, Yuna is more important to you than stars?
Uh... no, it's not about which is more important...
It's because I promised to be her bodyguard for 99 days.
So that means I have a chance too right?
Chance?
I...
I've been thinking hard over the past one month...
Thinking and thinking... and then I realized that I can't keep doing this anymore.
That I have to properly express my feelings or else I'll never move on...
That's why... I've made up my mind.
I see.
I...
like...
We're back.
Ah~ hungry.
Mitsy, oden please.
That's why I told you to eat your fill before!
Ouch!
We have a guest. Guest!
Ren, Sumire!
The observatory lady! Kuma!
How are you guys?
We are good, good, good!
What what? Hmm? Eh~
Nice to meet you.
I'm Kouhei's...
Ah... erm, I'm Kumada Kozue, I worked together with him at my previous observatory job.
It's very nice to meet you.
I'm Kouhei's sister Yukiko.
First an actress and now an astrologist?
You're surprisingly good at this, eh?
Sis, what are you talking about... Kuma is just a junior of mine.
Sure...
Mitsy, oden!
We're hungry!
You two! Have your mom buy that for you today.
What are you talking about? Shouldn't you be buying them this round?
Why do I have to?!
No, you kiddo!
I said no!
You guys have a mother right!
Okay, let's play rock, paper, scissors then.
Why do we have to rock, paper, scissors?!
Is it always like that?
Looks really fun.
I am envious of that atmosphere.
Really?
It's got a real "family" feel to it.
A strange family though.
Kouhei...
Don't you want to start a family of your own?
Do you plan to...
ever get married?
Marriage?
I...
like you, Kouhei.
EH?!
I like you... more than the stars.
Whether or not it's really just a promise...
If you like Yuna more than the stars... then I'll give up.
But if that's not the case...
Can you give me some consideration too?
I'm here in Tokyo for a week long course.
Please give me your reply before I go back.
Goodbye.
"Like"?
"More than the stars"?
EH?!
Polaris...
I don't mind if its just an act...
Just once more could you...
smile for me?
I...
really liked watching you smile.
"You may still be able to save the one you love."
How...
There is a chance,
that your image will be hurt in the process though.
Are you willing to deal even if that's the case?
Should I?
What should I do?
It's alright if it's just me...
But Yuna will be hurt in the process...
Plus, she'll be super pissed at me too!
But!
If I just sit here doing nothing, her predicament won't solve itself!
WHAT SHOULD I DO?!
JUST WHAT SHOULD I DO?!
This is Hashizume speaking.
Happy to hear back from you so quickly.
So you've made up your mind?
Just don't let that photo surface.
You must guarantee that promise will be kept.
Sure, I promise.
Fine.
Good.
I will be in touch with the details.
I have one condition.
Make sure Yuna is nicely photographed.
That's my condition.
Alright.
Ah~ It's beautiful.
Kouhei, this star is beautiful. It's really stunning.
That was a lie.
So please don't ever come here again.
I...
like you, Kouhei.
I like you... more than the stars.
Kouhei, we have something to say.
We will now say our goodbyes to you.
Huh?
Even though it was just for 2 months...
Thank you for everything.
Because you have chosen to forsake us...
That's why we have no choice but to leave this place.
"Forsake"... Ah, that Sumo wrestler's place?
Thanks for your taking care of us.
You guys are overdoing this.
Kouhei, let's both find happiness.
Think it through hard.
Let's go.
It's been a long time-
Kouhei, goodbye.
Bye bye.
They finally left.
Sorry to have troubled you for so long Mitsy.
Tomorrow onwards it'll be quiet, so you can relax.
How about we make it completely and utterly quiet?
Eh?
Well...
This shop is getting old...
And the 2nd floor is leaky too...
So I was thinking of tearing it down and making a brand new restaurant.
Wow... this is cool.
Eh? So what happens to me?
My room will be on the second floor.
You can live there on one condition-
Become my darling.
HUH?!
I've prepared myself.
You hurry up and do the same.
Become my darling or go to your Observatory woman.
Observatory woman?
Or, I suppose you could go to someone else altogether.
Either way, decide by the end of this week.
One week?
One week here too?
Takanabe?
What happened? You said you wanted to speak about my Cactus?
Did he do something wrong again? What is it this time?
Yuna.
You really like him, don't you?
But you see, he can't protect you.
The only one who can protect you now is me.
What are you doing?!
Why would you do this?
Yuna. Please understand.
I like you. I love you from the bottom of my heart.
You're wrong. This... all of this is wrong.
Yuna...
How?
Listen. Don't deny this.
If it's Takanabe instead of the bodyguard, people will say you're suitable for each other.
A prestige on par with Hollywood.
This way that other photo doesn't get out there.
You can protect that bodyguard if you don't deny this. You understand?
It's fine this way. It is.
Hey!
Look at this.
What is this about?
She's coming! Yuna!
Make way please!
What is your stance on the photo of you and Takanabe? Is it true?
If true this you'll definitely be the couple of the year.
Any marriage plans?
Are you possibly pregnant?
There still isn't anything concrete to report.
If possible, we'd appreciate your heartfelt support with regard to their relationship.
Meaning you acknowledge their relationship?
As I said, I can't say as of now.
Yuna! Please say something! Yuna!
OK, move aside please!
This is strange. Definitely strange.
Removing her glasses to purposely show off her face?
That's definitely strange.
Hey Tae Sung, don't you think so?
It's strange! This is definitely odd.
What is this? Tae Sung? Hey Tae Sung!
There he is. He's coming. He's coming!
Takanabe, what kind of relationship do you have with Han Yuna?
They told us to give our "heartfelt support" indicating acknowledgement.
Are you also of the same mindset?
Yes. Well if they made that statement over there, then I won't contest it.
Oh!
At any rate, I'll hold a proper interview later. So, excuse me.
Takanabe! Takanabe! How many reporters can come?
Yes. Kouhei?
Lose the reporters and meet me. We need to talk.
Ow!
You... typically, who hits an actor in the face?
Kouhei, why? Huh? Why'd you punch me?
You playing dumb? After doing that, you're gonna play it off?
What I did? You mean kiss Yuna?
Or do you mean having the picture put in a magazine?
Kouhei! Stop being oblivious. This is what it's like to like someone.
This is what loving someone is. Yuna truly likes you.
And yet you say things like, "I can't do anything!", or "I'll cause her trouble!".
Your constant indecisiveness makes you nothing more than an unreliable, worthless man!
An identical photo with me in it won't harm Yuna's reputation.
That's why I decided to do it. I'm certain that I'm not in Yuna's heart.
So I knew that what I was doing was cruel.
But I wanted to do everything I could to protect Yuna in my own fashion.
As long as you continue as you have, I'll protect her in my own way. Remember that.
I want you to trust your feelings...
I hope you'll find happiness.
That's a marker. You're looking for someone aren't you?
I'll find them. I'll definitely find them for you.
Kouhei.
Yes.
Kouhei. Yuna disappeared.
She disappeared?
Yes. I have a bad feeling about this.
What's wrong?
The Big Dipper is gone. Yuna's marker is gone.
Kouhei you are the only one who can find her.
I got it.
Where did you go?
Ah excuse me.
Welcome!
Yuna.
I was considering giving up if you didn't come.
But you always find me. Before and after you became my bodyguard. You even made it here today.
That's why I'd like to at least express my true feel-
I don't have anything. No money, status, or honor.
Comparing me to him, is like comparing night and day.
I don't know the best way to do it but...
I'll protect you.
I won't give you to anybody!
Because I want to protect you.
Thanks Kouhei. Thanks.
No not yet.
There is much more to come.
I've still got something to deliver the final blow with.
Yeah, haha. Please look forward to it.
You do have something.
You have a dream.
A beautiful dream.
I'll definitely protect Yuna!
Thanks for the care you've shown all this time.
Things are going to get crazy.
Fried Tofu, what should I do?
Stop calling me Fried Tofu!
I'll attain my happiness.
Marriage?
Say "Ahhh~"
