We've been going out almost one month.

To be honest, when we kiss

I still don't know what face I should make.

But just sharing these times after school

make every day enjoyable.

But those happy days changed all of a sudden

because of one casual comment he made.

-Come over to mine the day after tomorrow? -Huh?

We always have dates outside, so let's have a date at home for a change.

-Is that cool? -Uh...

Sure.

You come home really late so I always get so hungry.

-It's not so late. -No?

You are always so late these days.

What were you doing?

Just chatting with friends.

Countdown to the shocking scenes...

Three, two, one!

BEST 10

This is tomorrow's weather forecast for the entire country.

Eat it while it's hot. Bon appetit!

-Bon appetit! -Go ahead.

Yummy!

The day after tomorrow nobody will be home.

-Is that right? -I can't wait!

Sakura. I'm coming in.

-What is that? Why are you hiding it? -It's just a friend.

Really?

I mean, it wouldn't matter even if it wasn't just a friend.

What are you talking about?

It's still too early for that kind of thing.

Anyway, take a bath. I will go in after you.

Okay.

Seventeen point three?

What are you looking at?

Sakura's looking at a porn site!

-Sick! -I wasn't.

"The world average for one's first time is 17,3 years old."

What's that all about? Are you getting to that age, Sakura?

No, that's not it!

Oh, really.

Well, to be honest...

-What do you think? -About what?

Seventeen point three years old...

-That's our age. -Well, yeah.

-Isn't it a bit early? -Huh?

Japan would be later, right? This is the global average.

-Yeah, you're right. -But, by the age of 17,3

-most people would be doing it, right? -Really?

That would be quite late, wouldn't it?

I wouldn't know. I'm not interested.

Ah! I can tell you are interested!

Anyway, why are you researching this all of a sudden?

This is not a thing that you would normally bring up.

Your mom's quite strict.

The thing is...

No way...

Has he asked you to?

When?

-Tomorrow. -No way!

Do you mind if I ask you something a bit weird?

What?

When, you know, you do it...

You get naked and rub your bodies together, right?

Well, you don't exactly rub them together, but...

And then in the end, you...

-Right? -Huh?

So...

-You get like this! -Ah, yeah.

Does it hurt? People always say it does!

-Yeah, it hurts the first time. -Huh? How much?

As much as if this glass went up your nose.

That much?

-But that's impossible! -It will be fine.

This is the place you pee from, right?

That's hilarious!

-Be serious! -Sakura.

Are you planning to say such childish things forever?

At 17,3, you are already an adult.

I will be in just my knickers in front of Ryusei.

Well, you will take your knickers off too.

Wow!

I didn't know there were this many types.

Sakura, have you never bought your own underwear before?

No way! I hear that Korean bras are all the rage right now.

Really?

Yeah. You can get them on Qoo10.

Ah, but you don't have time to get it online.

Hey, Sakura! What about this one?

"The alluring cleavage bra".

-Who benefits from the cleavage? -The guy of course.

I mean, underwear

are things for covering and protecting an important part of the body.

I mean, are these actually fulfilling the role of underwear?

Yeah, yeah.

They are 5,000 yen? That's so expensive!

You can buy clothes for that price.

Is underwear really that important?

Of course it is. You need to make Hotta happy.

I see.

What color should i get?

-Don't ask me. -Huh?

How about these, Sakura?

They don't scream out you're looking for a man or are too used to ones like these.

But they are a cute yellow color.

Yes.

They're cute.

So Sakura is going to finally pop her cherry.

Pop my cherry?

Don't you know? It's called popping your cherry.

That's what they say in English when you lose your virginity.

That's ridiculous.

Why? It's kind of cute!

-In what way? -The sound? Pop...

-See you tomorrow then. -Yeah

-Thanks for today. -Sure.

-Make sure you're ready Sakura. -Huh?

There's lots to prepare.

See you later!

Ha-ha! Bye!

Prepare...

Sakura.

Here you go.

-What is that? -New underwear.

The stores in the shopping street were selling them for cheap!

I see.

I want to choose them myself from now on, so you don't need to buy anymore.

Why is that?

I'm 17 and not a child anymore.

You're still 17. So, you are still a child.

I'll go in the bath first, okay?

SET OF THREE LADIES' SHORTS

A: 17,3 YEARS OLD

Sakura, make sure you're ready.

SEVEN THINGS TO PREPARE THE DAY BEFORE YOUR FIRST TIME

Huh?

Wow, isn't this awesome?

Yeah, it is.

Wow!

-Ryusei. -What?

-Take a look at this. -Huh? No, I'm fine.

What's that all about?

What a waste.

Don't look at that kind of stuff in school.

-I really like this girl. -Me too.

-I like her. -Hey, are you listening?

This...

So the problem on page 38 of the textbook, Seino.

Seino!

Yes.

You're nervous, aren't you?

Well? Are you all ready?

-Yeah. -Don't force yourself, okay?

They say many girls have bad memories of their first time.

But it's with Hotta!

I'm sure you'll be fine with that cheerful prince.

Prince?

Well, he is a little prince-like.

In what way?

He is waiting on a white horse.

He's not.

Go for it, Sakura.

Yeah.

-See you then. Bye! -That's enough, already.

Bye!

-Have you been waiting long? -No, not at all.

Let's go.

Yes.

After you.

Excuse me.

There's nobody here though.

Are you thirsty? I'll get us some drinks.

Thank you.

Go ahead. It's upstairs on the right.

Okay.

Why are you standing?

-Sit down. -Ah, yes.

Is this from basketball?

Yeah, when I was in junior-high.

Right.

That's great.

Thanks for the tea.

It really is quite hot.

I may be sweating a little.

Just hang on, Ryusei.

It's fine.

Already?

-Ryusei? -Get your hand out of the way.

Huh?

Stop!

What's the matter?

It's just...

What?

Sorry.

Huh? Surely, that's what you came over for.

-I mean... -No, that was...

-Come on. -Get off!

I expected to become an adult like everyone else at the age of 17,3.

Welcome home!

I cooked those croquettes you love so much.

What is it, Sakura?

But I suddenly got scared.

I don't know why, but I just got

incredibly scared.

How did it go?

NOT TELLING

Congratulations!

It's really awful.

Morning.

Ryusei, about yesterday...

Sakura! Hey, you've got to see this!

My friend sent me this screenshot from Line.

-Seino has a shaved crotch. -What? Seino in class Ｃ?

So, it's just completely smooth?

-No way. -So, she is a slut!

It seems that this is going around everywhere.

What is this? That's impossible.

It's impossible, right?

-Who sent this out, I wonder? -Yeah.

Sakura?

Huh? Sakura!

Here you go.

-Okay. -Thank you. 5,000 yen.

-Thanks. -Thank you.

-Thank you. -Come on, Ryusei.

You said you could definitely do it within the month.

-Shut up. -Ah! Now he's mad.

-Shall we get lunch then? -Yeah. Let's go.

-I want noodles. -I want fried rice.

I have 5,000 yen, so I'll get a large portion.

-It's the girl with the saved crotch. -Don't say it to her face.

What was that all about? You had a bet?

You've got it wrong.

Whether you could do it within one month of going out with me?

That's just what those guys were talking about.

But you were the one who spread it right?

What?

That thing...

going around on LINE.

You were the only one who knew.

Those guys spread the rumors.

I didn't think it would spread this far anyway.

But you did tell them!

Why did you have to tell them that?

I've had enough of this.

What?

Let me ask you, then.

Why did you go home yesterday?

You came to my house with the whole of that area shaved.

Obviously, I'm going to think you're really into the idea.

Despite that, you just suddenly left.

What is that all about? Men have pride too, you know.

-Well, that's just... -I mean,

you seemed to be a virgin, so I thought I could do it in a month.

I'm so dissapointed.

Can you just not talk to me from now on?

It's hard for me with those rumors flying around, too.

Later.

She's quite the slut.

It's Seino.

This is awful... terrible.

For Ryusei, anyone would've been fine.

It didn't have to be me.

At that time, I was just an object to him.

I knew at that time he thought of me like that

and that is why I got so scared.

Are you crying?

You're Seino. The one they're all talking about.

They're all idiots, aren't they?

They only think of girls as objects.

Their knowledge of sex is limited to the adult videos they've watched.

And the only women that appear in those

are those in an image men have created for their own convenience.

I think its awful girls are sacrificed in that way.

But why do girls just go along with what boys want?

Huh?

The male peacock has more fancy feathers than the female.

In the case of deer, it's the male who has large horns.

Beetles, too, use their thing to appeal to the females too.

So why do human girls put on makeup, shave themselves,

and wear short skirts?

-Huh? -Isn't it weird?

If anyone should shave themselves, it should be the male.

Men smell and they're hairy.

-You're a boy too. -For sure.

Maybe I should do it.

What's that all about?

-Take this. -What is it?

Help me with the feeding.

It's hard work for me to look after the whole of the Biology Department on my own.

Here.

Great.

Quickly.

Yeah.

-Like this? -Yes.

It ate it.

-That's great -Wow!

A: 17,3 YEARS OLD

I'm sorry.

-Lying that I had popped my cherry. -Don't worry about it.

So, in the end he was just a playboy, right?

What a creep!

I'm glad you didn't lose your virginity to him.

-Really. You did well to avoid it. -Yeah.

It was tough, right?

Rather than tough

-I just feel annoyed with him. -With Hotta, right?

Of course you do.

-With myself. -Huh?

I'm very frustrated with Ryusei,

but I wondered whether I really wanted to do it or not.

I was invited by Ryusei, and knew about 17,3,

so I thought I had to do it.

That was all it was.

Right.

My hair down there...

shaving it all off was

just because I saw a stupid site that said I should.

I thought going into your first time with a shaved crotch was brave.

I just ended up looking like an alien.

Smooth, you mean?

-That's crazy. -Hilarious.

Stop!

But I may have said a few things that put pressure on you.

-Sorry. -No, it's fine.

I just got caught up in everything.

My mom always treats me like a little kid.

I think that's why I tried to rush into becoming an adult.

I see.

So, I've made up my mind.

-Huh? -What about?

I'm going to study... about sex.

-What? -Why would you do that?

Because I don't know anything about it.

So when, in the future, that day comes around again,

I will pop my cherry under very happy circumstances.

What?

Really. That's brilliant!

I thought you would find it traumatic, and not want to do it again.

Right?

That would be too much of a waste!

Like being swept along with boys and doing what they say.

Yeah! That's really good, Sakura.

Brilliant!

-Thanks. -Yeah.

I was thinking, though.

What?

Is sex really something that we have to do?

EVERYTHING CHANGED ALL OF A SUDDEN BASED ON ONE CASUAL COMMENT HE MADE...

17,3 YEARS OLD

WORLD AVERAGE FOR FIRST TIME IS 17,3 YEARS OLD

17,3 YEARS OLD IS...

IS 17,3 TOO EARLY?

17,3 YEARS OLD.TOO LATE? 17,3 YEARS OLD. NOT INTERESTED

17,3 YEARS IS ALREADY AN ADULT

SO SAKURA IS READY TO POP HER CHERRY?

POPPING CHERRY. ABBREVIATED TO "POP CHER"

I THOUGHT I COULD BECOME AN ADULT AT 17,3

WHY DO GIRLS DO WHAT STUPID BOYS TELL THEM TO?

I WANT TO STUDY SEX AND POP MY CHERRY IN A HAPPY WAY

HAVE YOU EVER CONSULTED WITH SOMEBODY ABOUT SEX?

71% HAVE NEVER CONSULTED WITH ANYONE

36% DON'T SAY ANYTHING AND KEEP CONCERNS AND SECRETS TO THEMSELVES

OF THESE 51% ARE "WORRIED ABOUT THEIR FIRST TIME"

BUT WE...

ARE NOT AT AN AGE WHERE WE "DON'T KNOW ANYTHING"

WHY SEX??
