Irie Naoki-sama

Each girl is born to meet her own destined one.

Do you, Irie Naoki, take Aihara Kotoko...

...in times of sickness and in times of health, to love and to serve, to be your lawfully wedded wife?

I do.

Kotoko.

Yes?

I love you.

Me too, Irie-kun.

Irie-kun...

Oh, gosh. My imagination ran wild there.

Nice to meet you, Irie-kun.

I’m Aihara Kotoko from Class-F.

You won’t know who I am, but

I’ve known you since the

Hellos and goodbyes

frolic in the wind

In the days of spring

the pastel colored

dance breaks out

The fairytale begins

Immediately

I will

come rushing over to your side

Wait for me

I’m running through the brilliant town right now

Fate entwined in mischief

We had always been searching

And now we’ve managed to find each other

I’m sure it’s not mere chance

I want you to remain by my side

I break free from the momentary lapse

And make no progress since that day

A suspended romance looks like it’s gonna come crashing down

It all depends on the crucial moments

I’m powerless to do anything

I’m unable to do anything

My overgrown bangs

It’s the right time to

hide my timid heart

A large gap opens in my heart

It’s not filled with sweet candy ah~

Inside the mirror

is a greedy face la la la la

I don’t want a world without you

An endless piercing sky ah~

On days of laughter and also nights of tears

I regret none of it

I’m an unrequited love fighter

Dangerous Cohabitation

I don’t want it.

He didn’t even accept the letter.

She confessed to the Irie-kun?

Aihara-san did that?

It seems that she was rejected instantly.

Worse yet, it was in front of everyone.

You serious?

That must be so embarrassing!

Isn’t Aihara-san in Class-F?

She sure has guts confessing to someone from Class-A like Irie-kun.

It’s more like she just doesn’t know her place.

You sure said it.

Leave me alone already!

Ah, she got upset.

You’re all so cruel!

Hey, I heard, Kotoko!

What a reckless thing you did!

I just figured, what if there was just a slight chance that he liked me...?

Oh please, that’s impossible.

You must be quite a blessed child, Kotoko.

That’s right.

For someone like me who was placed in the bottom class...

...to be with the guy from the top of the top class...

But, I fell in love with him.

Moving on, the greeting speech for the freshmen.

Thinking back to two years ago...

The guy who’s about to give his speech is supposed to be really smart.

I know! He was the top student nationwide throughout his three years of middle school, right?

So, you mean he’s the number one genius in Japan?

Number one genius in Japan?

Something like this?

Freshmen representative, Irie Naoki.

Yes.

So cool...

My name is Irie Naoki from Class-A.

Today, for our sake, the sake of the new students...

Amazing.

He was able to deliver his complicated speech so smoothly.

And like that, I fell in love with Irie-kun at first sight.

Morning, Kotoko.

Morning.

What are you up to? Class is about to start.

But...

Let’s go.

Sorted by ability, Irie-kun was placed into Class-A, the class where all the smart people gather.

I’m in Class-F, the worst class, also known as the leftover class.

I studied desperately with the single goal to be in the same class with Irie-kun.

F...

Kotoko, we’re in the same class again, huh?

But, in the end, as probability predicted, I stayed in Class-F.

At this rate, my high school life will end without him ever knowing my feelings!

I don’t want that to happen!

Here he comes.

Excuse me, Irie-kun!

Please... please accept...

I don’t want it.

There, there.

Well, it’s true that Irie-kun is pretty good looking...

...but he has some problems as a human.

Exactly. He doesn’t seem interested in girls at all even though he’s already seventeen.

There are plenty of more normal guys out there.

Kotoko!

Is it true that you confessed to Irie-kun?

You like that damn nerd?!

While you still have me too...

Isn’t that too much?

It’s not like I belong to you, Kin-chan.

What’s with those cold words?

Haven’t we sat next to each other in class for two years?

However, I’ll never forgive that Irie bastard for rejecting Kotoko!

You don’t have to yell–

Shut up!

It’s like he’s openly challenging me! That’s what I’m saying!

Well, calm down for now.

You idiot! I’m plenty calm!

I don’t care if he’s a genius or whatever. He’s just so full of himself!

Who does he think he is?!

That’s enough.

Just like you said, I wasn’t thinking things through.

Now that I think about it, I already knew I was going to be rejected, but...

Kotoko...

Besides, he can’t be a very nice person since he didn’t even read the letter.

I suppose.

I sure have bad taste when it comes to men.

I’m fine now. I’m going to give up.

What are you all doing? Class is starting.

Get to your seats. I’m going to take attendance.

Aihara.

Here.

That’s right.

Aso.

I’m giving up on that cold-hearted bastard.

But, I guess I had admired him.

My poor letter.

Oh, yeah. Are you done moving into your new house, Kotoko?

Yep.

A brand new house, how nice.

Let’s all go to her place next time.

That sounds nice.

No, don’t. You guys will definitely laugh.

It’s an authentic Japanese style house in this present day and all.

Your father is a chef, right, Kotoko?

I was hoping for a more trendy house.

Don’t worry, Kotoko. I’ll build one for you.

Since, there’s only Kotoko and her father in her household...

...it sounds like it’s going to be quite a problem when she marries.

For real?

Hey, I could marry into your family.

Quit talking to yourself already.

Hey, that’s the girl from this morning.

Let’s go.

Hey, Irie!

Why, that brat!

Well, that’s reality.

Don’t let it bring you down, Kotoko.

Hold it right there!

Kin-san!

Don’t think you can act like that just because you’re in Class-A!

Don’t, Kin-chan!

You refused Kotoko’s letter, didn’t you?

Kin-chan, please stop!

Do you even have blood running through your veins?!

That’s enough! Please stop!

I hate stupid girls.

Let’s go.

You bastard!

You think that people from Class-F aren’t even human?

That’s too cruel.

How could he say such a thing to me?

I can’t believe it!

Calm down!

Don’t let him provoke you!

Damn it!

Just let me get one swing at him! Let me go!

Kotoko, it was the right choice to give up on him!

I feel so vexed.

To think that I was in love with him for two years.

New houses are so nice!

Houses are defined by the smell of Japanese cypress.

Right, Kotoko?

I put you through a lot of hard times, Kotoko...

...but, we, father and daughter, can even build a house if we work together.

Mom, how’s the new house?

Pretty good, ain’t it?

But, doesn’t the house make creaking sounds every now and then?

Don’t be silly!

This house is well-built!

Someday, your husband will be living...

No way. I’m not going to get a son-in-law for you.

Are you saying that you’re going to leave your one and only father after marrying?

How can you be such a cold-hearted daughter–

Oh, guests? Who could it be at such an hour?

Hey, Kotoko!

Coming!

Hello!

We’ve come for a house warming.

Guys.

You all really came.

Why, if it isn’t Jinko-chan and Satomi-chan?

Come on in!

Congratulations on the completion of your new house, Oji-san.

I’m coming in.

Here.

Oh, thanks.

Let’s let ourselves in too then.

All right!

That was delicious.

I’m so full.

Dad, how ’bout another glass?

Nah, I think I’ve had enough for today.

Actually, Kin-chan came here to help console you because of what happened today.

He’s completely fallen for you, hasn’t he?

What’s wrong, Jinko?

Don’t you think this juice is slanted?

Huh? What do you mean?

Do you mean to say the house is slanted?

How could that be?

Exactly.

Anyway, just hurry up and forget about Irie, okay, Kotoko?

Don’t speak that name ever again!

Just remembering it pisses me off.

That brat, making a fool out of me!

He’s really pissed!

Damn it!

Hey!

Damn it!

Kin-chan!

Damn it!

Kinnosuke! Don’t break the house!

It surely wouldn’t break from something like this, right, Dad?

What’s that?

I didn’t do anything.

An earthquake? Oh, no! This seems like a big one!

Not good! Kotoko, we have to get outta here!

Don’t worry!

This house is well-built!

What are you doing? Hurry!

Kotoko, hurry!

What is it?

I have to grab Mom!

What are you doing, Kotoko? Hurry!

Dad! Dad!

Dad?

Dad!

It’s dangerous. Please stand back.

Dad...

Please, folks, don’t push. It’s dangerous, please stand back.

Dad!

Dad, answer if you can hear me!

Sir, it’s dangerous to move around here.

Please let us handle it.

Quit interfering!

We’re talking about Kotoko’s father here!

Who’s going to save him? Huh?!

Calm down. Please stay composed.

Dad!

Answer me!

Dad!

Hey!

Dad?

Hey!

I’m coming. Where are you?

Are you down there?

Yeah. The altar is on top of me, so I can’t move.

Thank goodness. I’m going to save you now.

Sir, is there a survivor?

All right! Don’t talk to me!

Don’t distract me!

Dad!

Hi!

You’re all right.

Please come out quick.

I was trying to bring Mom back, but instead, I was protected by her.

Dad! I’m so glad!

Watch out! Hey!

The survivor has been safely rescued.

Thank goodness!

But, this is really something else.

It was a new house too, wasn’t it?

Could it be that only our house collapsed?

Yeah, looks like it.

No way...

Last night at 8:40, there was an earthquake in the middle of the Kanto area.

The quake in Tokyo measured at level 2.

Due to the quake, the family from the Suginami District...

Did you see the news?

I did. A house collapsing from a mere level-2 quake?

It’s Aihara-san!

And she just got rejected by Irie-kun yesterday. What a disaster for her.

The bad luck doesn’t end, huh?

Yeah. Poor thing.

You’re the target of the gossip every morning, huh?

I’m sorry.

I’m causing trouble for you guys too.

But, it certainly was quite extraordinary.

So, have you decided where you two are gonna be staying?

We might be staying over at my father’s friend’s place.

I guess we can’t possibly stay in the hotel forever.

I see. It must be hard.

Sorry!

You’re totally a celebrity now.

That doesn’t make me happy at all.

People, we kindly ask for your cooperation.

Kin-chan?

What is he doing?

Disaster fundraiser of love?

For Aihara-san, whose house was lost in the earthquake.

What the...?

She lost her house in the quake last night.

We’re now conducting the fundraiser of love for Aihara Kotoko-chan of Class 3-F.

Kin-chan! What are you doing?!

Stop! It’s embarrassing!

Here she is right now!

Despite going through such a calamity, she’s still cheerfully attending school.

Doesn’t it bring you to tears?

Come on! Stop!

We can’t do that.

I’m atoning for my sins.

If I hadn’t headbutted the beam...

That totally has nothing to do with it.

Sure it does!

I’m doing this because of you.

Hey.

Would you let me through?

Irie-kun!

You!

Whose fault do you think it is that Kotoko is now in such terrible pain?

The fault of the level-2 quake, right?

Shut up!

It’s because you said those nasty things to Kotoko!

That was the catalyst behind the many disasters that Kotoko suffered!

You’re saying that I caused the quake?

That’s right!

Kin-chan, that’s enough! Please stop!

Fine.

You won’t have any complaints if I donate, right?

Here.

Don’t make a fool out of me!

It was a total waste having feelings for someone like you these past two years!

I don’t want your blessing even if it kills me!

Are you sure it’s okay to say something like that?

Of course it is!

There’s no reason for me to be taken care of by you!

Don’t treat me like a fool just because I’m stupid!

What the? You’re not supposed to laugh!

Who would have thought that the central pillar would be destroyed by termites.

That’s because you skimped on the materials.

I didn’t skimp! I was cheated!

But, more importantly, is it really okay?

Even though he’s your friend, we’ll be imposing if we freeload at his place.

You don’t have to worry about him.

He’s the one who invited us.

He’s a good friend since middle school, and he called me when he saw the news.

“You must come to my place!”, is what he said.

Sounds like a nice person.

Iri-chan really is a nice guy.

Iri-chan?

Actually, he got all excited after I told him about you.

About me?

Ah, here! Please stop!

Iri-chan’s son is the same age as you.

What an incredible mansion!

What’s more, it seems that he attends the same school as you.

Irie?

What are you doing? Hurry up!

It looks like we have his son’s consent as well too.

It can’t be, can it?

That’s reassuring, isn’t it, Kotoko?

It can’t be.

Something as ridiculous as that couldn’t possibly happen.

Oh, Ai-chan!

Iri-chan!

Welcome!

Come on in.

Sorry about this, Iri-chan.

What are you saying? Don’t be so distant.

It’s strange for you to be so hesitant.

He doesn’t look anything like Irie-kun.

That’s right. It’s just a coincidence.

Oh, so this is Kotoko-chan?

Nice to meet you.

Welcome.

Nao! Hey, Nao. Kotoko-chan and her father are here!

Nao?

Welcome.

Nice to meet you. I’m Aihara.

I’m the eldest son, Naoki. Nice to meet you.

No way!

What should I do?

A fine young daughter, don’t you think?

I’m filled with awe.

I’m surprised. You’re far more prettier in person than in the photos.

Photos?

Welcome!

Thanks for coming, Kotoko-chan. We’ve been waiting.

Right, Papa? She’s a wonderful girl, just like I said.

This morning, at school...

I just couldn’t wait, so I did it without thinking.

But, anyway, Aihara-san, it must have been difficult.

Now then, come on in.

Then I’ll make myself at home.

Come on, Kotoko.

You too, say something.

I’m coming in.

Onii-chan, you know her by face, don’t you?

Yeah. Our classrooms are rather far apart.

But, a lot of things happened lately.

Right, Kotoko-san?

But, I’m so delighted.

It’s gonna be really fun from today onwards!

I’m going to go shopping with Kotoko-chan, bake cakes with her, and also...

Ah, Yuuki.

Come here and greet them.

This is Papa’s good friend, Aihara-san, and his daughter, Kotoko-oneechan.

Is he the younger brother?

Yes.

Nice to meet you. I’m Irie Yuuki.

I’m in the third year of elementary school.

What an intelligent looking young man.

He looks just like Irie-kun. Miniature version.

I’m Aihara Kotoko. Nice to meet you, Yuuki-kun.

Kotoko-oneesan, I’m doing my homework right now...

...so, can you please teach me how to read these kanji?

Sure.

Squid (Crow + Thief)

Dolphin (Sea + Pig)

Blowfish (River + Pig)

Let me see...

Did we learn this in elementary school?

Sea-pig, perhaps?

How about the second one?

River-pig?

And the third one?

Bird thief...

The fourth one?

Pot-cow?

It’s dolphin, blowfish, squid and snail.

You’re seventeen and you can’t even read this. Are you retarded?

Yuuki, that’s terribly rude!

Apologize!

No!

Dumbass! I hate you!

Yuuki!

Sorry about that, Kotoko-chan.

Sorry. That boy is too much.

I got rejected by both brothers...

That’s right, Kotoko-chan. Let me show you to your room.

I put my heart into preparing it.

Okay.

Step in. This is it.

So, do you like it?

Yes. It’s really cute.

I always wanted a girl.

I had always longed for something like this.

This used to be Yuuki’s room.

Thanks to you, I had to carry his desk into my room, and now it’s so cramped.

Onii-chan, don’t say such things!

Don’t mind him, Kotoko-chan.

Okay...

Please help Kotoko-chan unpack, okay?

I have to prepare dinner.

See you later then, Kotoko-chan.

Now then, what shall I help you with?

It’s okay. I can do it myself.

Ah, that’s right.

There was no reason for me to take care of you, right?

Whether you’re here or not is none of my business.

Please don’t cramp my lifestyle.

I sure came to a horrible place...

...perhaps...

This is so awkward.

Hey, don’t tell anyone that we’re living together.

Wha–? What is it?

I’ve told you before. I hate stupid girls.

I’m so vexed!

I’m going to ace the upcoming midterms!

I’ll show you that I can get into Year-3’s top fifty.

I’m going to triumph over Irie Naoki!

Next time on Itazura na Kiss:

Dangerous Cohabitation.

I’m definitely going to be happy.
