Was that a kiss?

Oh, damn it! I can't concentrate at all!

Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!

I'm the One Who's Gonna Win

And I need to finish my summer vacation homework by the day after tomorrow, too!

A famous morning drama actress.

Let's go out to eat, Ouri-kun!

A charismatic top model.

Are you free, Ouri-kun?

Sorry, I'm busy.

Aw...

No matter how much others came onto me,

it never resonated with me at all, and yet...

What the hell's going on with my emotions?! Damn it!

This place is closed, too.

There's nowhere open...

Utage Kinoshita!

What's she doing here?!

Hey!! It's just like sweeet magic!! Aha!

Hi, it's me! The one with that killer smile!

Stealing your gaze with a shocking style!

Smooth as ever, I escort you

And this voice, seducing you

Ah, come on, let's dance; I'm aiming straight for your heart

I am your ace darlin'

Confidence? Yeah, I've got plenty

Please Please

Whisper just to me, call my name

You're too popular, it drives me crazy and I'm not okay

But I'm sorry, losing's not my thing

Hey, girl

Look this way!

I see your smile, smile, smile, I wanna make it all mine

Crash, crash, crash, our special connection shines

Dance, dance, our world is non-stop groovin'

I'll show you my perfect A-side, side, side

And my private B-side, side, side; I'll show you everything

So take my hand and let's roll

Sweet Sweet Sweet magic!!

Sweetie honey Sweetie honey

Sweetie honey Sweetie honey

It's a spell that makes your heart race

We can't go back

You're falling in love with me, c'mon!

Sweetie honey

Sweet Sweet Sweet magic!!

I focused too much on my job and fan activities during summer vacation

and forgot to do my homework.

I need to finish it by the day after tomorrow...

"Supernova"!

The idol group that everyone has their eyes on right now... F/ACE!

No way! A commercial?!

Their first on-location trip show coming soon!

Did I use up all my luck for the day by running into this today?!

Jeez! You're way too serious!

Their latest single is a massive hit!

And we get to see another side of F/ACE!

It's a miracle that we were born in the same era

So we've got to enjoy it (Yeah, song song song)

Good morning.

I'm sure everyone wants to see footage of us waking up.

Sing out loud (sing sing sing)

Harmonizing loud and proud

Don't worry, we made sure the cameras were rolling.

T-Tamon-kun's naked?!

Song, song, song

Let's sleep together for just a little longer...

Sing out loud (sing sing sing)

Shining bright as one

We shouldn't be doing things like this first thing in the morning, Tamon-kun!

Fan Activities

I can draw out all my potential for fan activities, but not really anything else.

Fan Activities

Fan Activities

Fan Activities

No, no!

Even Tamon-kun is working hard to do both work and school,

Menacing

so I need to get a grip!

It'll cost some money, but I guess I could go to a café.

If I'm so bothered by not knowing what her relationship with Tamon is,

I'll just ask her outright.

Somewhere cheap and quiet would be best.

Oh? Gloomyhara-san?

Oh... Hello.

Hello. Today's a lovely day, isn't it?

What the hell is he doing here?!

Are you heading out somewhere?

I went to get the uniforms that Fujita-san sent to the dry cleaners.

Right. The new school term starts the day after tomorrow.

You have two uniforms?

One is Ouri-kun's.

I see.

Waitaminute! You go to high school, Gloomyhara-san?!

And to the same school as Ouri-kun?!

Oh, yes. Didn't I mention that before?

Oh, right. I made him go get them.

There's a Tamon-kun that goes to high school in real life?

Tamon-kun who's a third-year in high school exists in this world.

How is that possible? My brain can't process that.

I'm right here, though.

Though I mostly just do my makeup classes at night or on my days off,

so it doesn't really feel like a normal high-school life.

What are you up to, Kinoshita-san?

Ah, well, I hadn't finished my summer vacation homework yet.

You take Pochi for a walk, Yamato. I have a date, and I'm busy!

I have to study, so no.

I can't concentrate at home because my siblings and dog are too loud.

And both the library and community center are closed.

Closed

So I was looking for a place to study.

Hm... Somewhere you can study quietly for free...

I know! You can come over to my place.

There's no way I can step foot into that sanctuary other than for work.

Oh, I'm sorry!

In that case...

A table in that park was open. And it's pretty cool today.

Between those two places, it'd be the park.

Sure.

I have to memorize tomorrow's script,

so I'll buy some sandwiches and...

Hey.

What the hell are you two thinking?

Tachibana-san?!

Don't just casually go have a picnic.

You two need to be more aware of your surroundings.

What are you, grade schoolers?!

Facts

Come with me.

Huh?

Where are we going?

If you have nowhere else to go, do it here.

Frugality Is a Virtue

There's nothing distracting here, so you should be able to concentrate.

I-I guess you're right.

Did you eat lunch yet?

Not yet.

Save Water

I have some prepped meals in the fridge, so you can eat those if you're hungry.

Just make sure not to pull the drawer out more than fifteen centimeters.

Once you open the door, close it within three seconds.

Also... Tamon, you little...

A Journey of a Thousand Miles Begins with a Single Step

Huh?

Did you go outside without putting on any sunscreen again?!

Please calm down, Tachibana-san! Please!

Stop that!

I'm wearing a bag over my head, so it's f—

No, it's not!

Your face is an important product that prints money!

You need to care for it with your life.

Don't underestimate UV rays! Drench your face with lotion!

Huh? They seem closer than before?

Also, you look pale. Have you been sleeping?

W-Well, just thinking about the eight billion intelligent lifeforms

wriggling about on Earth got me really scared suddenly,

and before I knew it, it was morning...

If you have time to think about that kind of nonsense, just go to sleep!

Good for you, Tamon-kun. You've gotten closer to Keito-kun.

You can have this.

Huh? Dirt?

Do you mean I should go be one with the dirt again?

No. They're used coffee grounds.

I'm so happy for you.

Are you giving me garbage because I'm garbage?

No. They can help you sleep soundly.

But I've also been worried about him and watching over him.

Just take it!

Thank you very much.

If I... If I were born as a guy...

Once you're done, just lock up and give Tamon the key.

Okay! I will.

Have a great time...

Popular segment on their official channel

shooting Mama Keito's 30-minute Cooking.

You don't need to say the name.

U-Um, why are you doing all this for me?

You seemed to really despise fans as if they killed your parents.

Turn off the Lights

I saw how hard you worked during the training camp,

and I checked Tamon's apartment.

Huh?

He suddenly came over yesterday, checked my whole apartment, and then left.

Really?

It's clear you were supporting him

by professionally handling his household chores.

I also know in my head that fans aren't all insane.

So I'm sorry, Kinoshita-san.

Bye.

Keito-kun has now started to complain to me more than before the training camp.

That sounds like your relationship is worse.

No. Rather than him suddenly getting mad at everything that happened

Hey!

Hey, Tamon!

in the past all at once or quietly clicking his tongue at me,

What the hell are you doing, Tamon?!

it's less scarier to have him tell me how he feels.

Hey.

The hell are you doing?

Shut up. Don't make me punch your glasses in.

Hmph.

I guess Tachibana-san's the type that lets everything build up inside.

I'm going to do my best so he doesn't keep everything in.

He is our very precious leader of F/ACE.

I'm the leader of F/ACE, after all.

Right.

If Tamon-kun says all that, Keito-kun is a good person.

Today's Savings is Tomorrow's Happiness

Okay, I'm going to start my homework.

Could you not summon me on my day off?

Well, I don't want to waste any money on transportation.

Yes, yes, of course. Okay, let's go.

Is there something on my face?

Oh, I'm sorry. I've just never seen you study before so...

It made me realize that you are actually a high school student.

It's a bit embarrassing when he points it out like that.

Well... I guess I am usually working when I'm around you, Gloomyhara-san.

Oh, please just think of me as waste

that's wearing a garbage bag and pay me no mind so you can concentrate.

That was fast. I'm impressed.

I do pretty well with literature stuff.

Oh, I figured as much.

You did?

Whenever you encourage me,

you always use so many words in so many ways, so I figured as much.

Arithmetic Drills

Tamon Fukuhara Kamioshi

Not to mention those got harder in my second year.

I see.

At first, I thought you were someone who could do anything, Kinoshita-san.

What? Really?

But... there's no way someone like that exists, right?

You're just working harder than others.

That's very admirable.

Th-That's not true!

I'm just doing what I should because I should.

But isn't that pretty hard to do?

My handwriting's so bad that I can't even read the notes I took

Gloomyhara Font

and then I get stuck.

Whenever I clip my nails, I bleed...

Ow...

Ow...

I can't even do what I'm supposed to be able to do.

Gloomyhara-san...

So the fact that you can do all these things is admirable.

You tell me that all I need to do is exist,

but you seem rather hard on yourself.

Well, you're special, Tamon-kun!

Being told that doing the most trivial things is admirable...

makes me feel tingly inside.

Hm...

What's wrong?

I can't seem to figure out this problem...

Oh, a trigonometric function problem.

Um... Here, I think you... oh right.

He's acting like my senpai...

You use sine, cosine, or tangent and...

You're right.

Your complexion looks much better today.

Now I remembered that...

I don't know!

Huh?

My brain is smoother than a boiled egg,

so there was no way I could actually remember what I learned a year ago!

Please forgive me and my ugly vanity for being overconfident

and trying to act all senpai!

I'm sorry that I was nothing more than a rotten boiled egg!

Tamon-kun is the embodiment of light born from star fragments!

Yes!

Now's my chance since I'm in the same grade as that chick...

I'll teach you everything.

You're so smart and wuvly!

Yeah, that's what'll happen.

Then I'll cheer you on as Hottiehara—

No!

But why? I have nothing left to offer if you don't let me do that.

I keep telling you not to waste Hottiehara-kun!

You keep saying it's a waste, but it's not a waste to me...

You're always so strong and cool, Kinoshita-san...

and the only time you change is when you're around Hottiehara.

Honestly, that's a win for me.

Huh?

Do you like troubling other people? That's not okay, even if you're Tamon-kun!

I do feel... bad about it.

Huh?

But... I'm always the one crying and falling over...

and you're always there for me...

So... I want to be something to you, too.

Not the music video or the photo version of me.

But the me that's in front of you right now.

The Tamon-kun that's in front of me...

What the hell am I sneaking around for?

I just need to march in there, ask them what I want to know,

and get it over with!

What the heck's going on with you two?

We're dating!

Am I... actually scared to ask?

My father is a leading actor that represents Japan.

Toshikazu Sakaguchi

It goes without saying, but he's handsome.

My mother is a singer who defined a generation.

Of course, she's also beautiful.

Their son is currently a new idol in the spotlight.

Ouri Sakaguchi

Everyone would agree that his good looks rival any national treasure.

The educational policy of the elegant Sakaguchi Family

was a bit different from other households.

Ouri.

You inherited our superb genes and were born into this world.

Meaning you are a winner amongst winners just by being born.

Yeah, I know! Everything goes ridiculously well for me!

But that's only if you live a mediocre life.

You will never be a winner in the entertainment industry.

Huh?!

That's because your father...

...and mother...

...will continue to be winners!

Whether you like it or not, if you stand on the same stage as us,

you'll be compared to us and always feel disappointed.

Having to face a giant obstacle known as your parents

is the fate of second-generation talent.

B-But I want to be on TV, too!

Then you must be ready to surpass your mother and father!

Always remember this, Ouri...

Family Motto Strength Is Power

Strength is power.

I'm... gonna be the winner here!

I'm... gonna be the winner here!

Her relationship with Tamon doesn't matter!

I...

Kinoshita-san, I...

Huh?!

Ouri-kun?!

I'll teach you your homework!

You kicked down the door even though it was unlocked?

Gloom, gloom...

Tamon's in the damn way.

By the way, Gloomyhara-san, weren't you trying to say something earlier?

U-Um...

It's not important, so don't worry about it.

I'm talking to Gloomyhara-san.

It really isn't important, so please don't worry about it.

Isn't this great, Kinoshita-san?

Huh?

Now, you'll be able to get your homework done.

It's great that Ouri-kun showed up.

Yup, exactly. I'm sure this buffoon was useless.

I'm sorry for being a meaningless existence and occupying this space.

I can learn lyrics and choreo in three minutes and it takes him thirty hours.

Gloom, gloom, gloom...

Sting

He just doesn't have the knack for it.

Actually, I'm surprised you were even able to survive this long.

I'm sorry that my brain capacity is less than an ostrich's!

Tamon-kun spends 300 times more time on hard work than others. I love him.

Tch.

Grrr...

Thank you very much, Kinoshita-san.

But it's true that I'm not being very useful...

so is there something else I can do for you?

Then... please just exist.

Er... something other than that.

Then get me a shine muscat Daifuku and terrine de marrons!

Wha—

Humanity is not ready for Tamon-kun to be treated as an errand boy!

Well, he doesn't have anything else to do, does he?

I'll be back soon. I'll buy some for you, too, Kinoshita-san!

Wha—

And there he goes...

Kekeke! Now, no one's in my way.

By the way, are you actually smart, Sakaguchi-san?

What's that supposed to mean, huh?! I clearly look intelligent!

Er, I was just curious...

That's right. I guess you haven't seen me get serious in person.

Academics? Of course, I'm great at it!

Today, I'm gonna get her to look my way for real!

Utage-san.

Tamon-kun's great, but won't I suffice as well?

Ouri-kun's gone into idol mode!

Oh, I'm sorry for calling you by your name without asking.

If you're all right with it, may I continue calling you Utage-san?

S-Sure.

W-Wow... the background's all see through...

I'm so transparent that people say that there's nothing more transparent

than the beaches at Palau or Ouri Sakaguchi!

I'll make you take this head on and make you fall for me!

I'm just getting started!

Please, have a seat, my princess.

I'll lend you the notes I wrote up, so please feel free to use them.

Trigonometric Formulas

You're correct! Well done!

This is how you do this part...

Oh! I'm sorry!

I'll finish you with the reliable youngest member act.

It's a little nerve-racking being here alone together, isn't it?

But I'll maintain the innocence!

Squee.

Got 'em!

So this is what Tamon-kun gets to see all the time...

I'm so moved. I get to experience being my oshi.

This hasn't gotten through to her at all, damn it!

A normal chick would've melted into nothing by now!

I wonder what Kinoshita-san's favorite fruit is.

What do you like?

What do you like?

Tamon-kun!

Tamon-kun! Tamon-kun! Tamon-kun!

Fruits Daifuku Fair

Maybe I don't know anything about... Kinoshita-san after all...

I'd like...

to know more about her.

I should eat soon.

Why?

What would he do right now?

Sakaguchi-san?

Huh?

U-Um...

I'm back—

G-Gloomyhara-san! This is just...

What exactly is this?!

I don't know what to do after this.

What is this aura?

Murderous intent?!

Oh, I was just giving her a little fan service.

To show her gratitude for always supporting F/ACE.

Ah...

Wha—

Wait, is that Darkhara-san?!

Kinoshita-san...

doesn't like that.

Not that I'm an expert, or anything... but I've messed up before.

Tch.

What?! You bought every kind?!

I'm sorry.

Is she really not going to look my way?

Does she really not even...

Sakaguchi-san.

You probably did this because you don't like me and you were mad...

But I can't approve of what you did earlier.

You didn't really seem like yourself, Ouri-kun.

What?

Tamon-kun has a lot of fans, but you also have a lot of fans.

So please make sure you take good care of him...

The pure and sincere idol Ouri-kun that's loved by everyone.

I mean, you can't be anyone but yourself, right?

I thought I only wanted to get her to look my way because of my pride...

I thought it was because I didn't want to lose to him as an idol.

But that's not it.

You bought so much. Thank you.

Is there anything you don't like?

I...

I'm in love with...

I love them all! I'll take all of them!

Uh huh...

I wonder what the world would look like without you

When I look back, you've always been by my side

Teaching me what "warmth" and "happiness" feel like

A speedboat sails across the endless skies

An unwavering course, a straight shot down the middle

An unbreakable red balloon found nowhere else

Is this "fate"? Or just a "coincidence"?

Like a wilted flower coming back to life

A light that shines

Through the impossibly dark night

(Light of your soul)

I wanted to grasp it

(I love you so)

So I strived for it

Wanna keep going, wanna keep growing

Bringing our flowers and dreams into full bloom
