Get stylish.

POST

Haruka, let's go!

I can't believe we're graduating.

- Yeah, I'm so sad. - Right?

GRADUATION CEREMONY

Let me stay over if I come visit you in Tokyo.

Okay!

- I can't wait. - Yeah.

Thank you.

I'll be a city girl by then.

Ready?

Say cheese!

What are you doing?

ONE YEAR LATER

Are you okay?

I'm sorry!

- Are you hurt? - No, I'm okay.

I'm so sorry.

Don't worry about it at all.

Excuse me.

Yes?

Is Kurotaki here?

He's on break right now. I'll tell him.

Could you throw this away for us?

Sure!

Kurotaki sure has a lot of friends.

I know, right!

I always pictured myself drinking these fancy drinks and studying.

Getting drinks that are over 500 yen a cup?

You could buy lunch with that.

Right?

The beer keg's empty!

- I'll get it! - Thanks.

- Excuse me! - Coming!

Reality is harsh.

Let me.

Mr. Kurotaki!

These weigh 20 kilos.

Don't push yourself.

Don't worry, I have muscles!

What, am I that undependable?

Not at all!

You're so serious.

Coming through.

That Kurotaki is always nonchalantly chivalrous. How nice.

I'm home.

What a thoroughly depressing room.

I could fall right asleep.

Hooray for no makeup.

I overslept!

I bought lipstick.

Isn't it cute?

I bought so much.

I think I was more feminine back when I was just dreaming of Tokyo.

I'm so sorry!

What?

Something on my face?

You're staring.

I'm so sorry.

I just got flustered because you're so pretty.

Thanks.

Pretty people are just different.

I'd love to wear makeup,

but I put it off because I'm either broke or busy.

Did someone complain about you not wearing makeup?

No, not really.

Then you're fine

the way you are.

Being able to compete with your natural assets is best.

Let's do our best.

If I were that pretty, it'd be worth the effort.

What?

No, it's nothing.

Is it that good?

Yes!

Then I guess today's a no.

Today?

I thought we could go out for drinks after work.

Again?

Sorry I have so much free time.

Free time?

Did you break up with your girlfriend?

Bingo.

So come out and comfort me.

It's your fault for never calling her while she is studying abroad.

How about just drinks, no food?

Sorry, I'm still underage.

You're still 19?

When's your birthday?

Next Tuesday.

That's soon!

Let's go drinking then.

All right, I'm off!

Did we just make plans?

What am I going to do?

No way!

So young.

ON HARUKA'S BIRTHDAY

Oh, crap!

I didn't get anything ready for my birthday!

After Mr. Kurotaki invited me out.

I have to do something!

Do I get makeup?

Foundation? Eye shadow? Lipstick?

Destiny?

What makeup are you using?

It's my birthday today, and I don't know what to do!

I just need some makeup to get through today.

How do you get those long lashes?

Or that radiant skin! Or that wonderful scent!

I'm sorry.

Um, I didn't mean to invade your space, I just panicked.

Which one should I buy?

Beauty serum?

Fixer?

What are these?

These are for lashes.

The brush is curved for comfort,

and the fibers are great for length.

Make sure to buy eye makeup remover as well though.

Here.

Also.

Maybe around here?

Um.

Thank you!

Not that I think you'll get far with something last-minute.

Copying someone won't always work out.

This too.

Got it.

What is this?

Huh?

Haruka! What a coincidence!

Mr. Kurotaki!

What're you up to?

Um!

"I wanted to look cute for you!"

There's no way I could say that!

You two hanging out?

Sucks, I've got work now.

Have fun.

Well,

looks like I don't need these anymore.

Huh?

I thought we made plans.

I guess it was just me.

With that guy?

I just got my hopes up.

I feel so stupid.

You're not stupid.

You wanted to look cute for a guy you liked.

Every girl does that.

A girl?

Am I really a girl though?

Want to join the Dance Club?

How about it?

There had to be a time when I should have tried.

But

I didn't.

Eventually,

I came to believe I could never catch up to everyone else.

I have no confidence.

Let's go.

Morning.

Hi, Hikaru! Morning!

- Hi! - Morning, Hikaru!

Cute!

I'm studying hair and makeup here.

Come on, sit down.

No, I couldn't possibly!

After 20, being ugly is a choice!

Don't get the wrong idea,

I'm not talking about your appearance.

A self-deprecating smile isn't cute.

Come on, sit down.

I'll cast a spell on you.

An amazing one that gives you so much confidence

you won't care about outside opinions anymore.

Sorry to keep you waiting!

- Let's go. - Okay.

Let's go.

Let's drink tonight.

I'm so tired.

- Know a good place? - Mr. Kurotaki!

Good job at work today.

Haruka?

Yes!

What's up? You going to a wedding?

What?

I mean,

I'm just really surprised.

You're so dressed up.

You look cute.

Kurotaki, we got a reservation!

Be right there.

Later.

This is my magic spell.

How you use it is up to you.

Wait!

I actually…

Truth is,

I was waiting for you!

Huh?

I don't think you remember,

but today's my 20th birthday.

And you said we should get drinks then.

Um…

So

I was really looking forward to it.

Man, I suck.

Not at all!

I just thought you meant today.

It's my fault for not double-checking.

Sorry!

It's my fault.

I'm really sorry!

We're going!

No, I'm sorry for interrupting you.

Have a nice time.

Wait!

Listen,

please let me make this up to you next time!

How about

instead of drinks,

we go on a date.

Okay!

I come from a family of cabbage farmers.

That still

doesn't explain this!

It's to thank you.

And also,

I have a favor to ask!

Could you please teach me your magic?

What?

I feel like

I'm ready to step forward.

I want to be more confident.

And be able to be myself

in front of the person I like.

I want to be able to like myself.

Please!

Just so you know,

I don't coddle people who've never made the effort.

Yay!

Okay, okay.

You're such a nice person, Hikaru.

You really like clinging to people, huh?

A toast to fate and meeting you!

Cheers.

Come on, please eat!

No, go ahead.

What, why? Let me treat you!

Please eat.

Well, for one,

I don't eat fried foods.

Why not?

Please eat!

I'll have the edamame.

Eat the fried chicken too!

My room is clean?

When did I do this?

Wow.

Obviously, it wasn't you, you drunk.

Who are you?

I'm the wizard you summoned.

You're the one who asked me.

You're Hikaru?

Yeah, that's me.

So.

Why don't you forget him

and choose me.

What?!

I wanted to become friends with you.

You're going on a date like that?

I told him I came with someone special.

It wouldn't be good if Kurotaki finds out I'm a guy.

The truth is, I was lying to you.

Thank you!

Just girls being friends?
