Original subtitles

I'm planning to propose to Akari.

So that she doesn't have to be alone anymore,

I want to become her family.

Serizawa-san! Break time!

Uncle.

Why did you leave without Akari?

In any case, please go meet Akari.

I don't have the right to see her.

I saw my dad!

Isn't it about time you stop thinking about your dad?

You should give up already.

I don't understand what Shota is thinking at all.

Shota is a good guy,

so he can accept everything.

The teacher qualification exam...

you definitively have to pass.

You'll realize for the first time when you lose her.

It was only natural to have her by your side,

but one day, she suddenly disappears.

How painful that is!

You want to do something for her, but it's too late since she's gone!

You liked Akari-san before?

I was envious of her.

She must be happy that you spoke of her that way.

But... it's over.

[ To Aoi: I've always liked you. I'll be waiting at the same place for next year's fireworks. - Akari ]

What's this?

This is 500,000 yen.

Promise me that you'll never appear in front of Akari.

Please get out of Akari's life.

When and where did you meet again?

We met by chance in Toyama, on same year we graduated.

I'm home.

Welcome home! Hey, Akari, listen.

I cooked too much beef and potato dish.

So I took some to an old man at next door.

Do you know what he said?

No thank you, since it looks gross.

Don't you think he's being harsh? He may look kind, but

you never know his true color.

Akari?

What? You're right.

Is there something wrong?

Nothing at all. It's too bad, your beef and potato dish is so delicious.

Here, you can have these.

Thanks.

Koinaka Episode 4

- I'm going that way. - Okay.

It was fun meeting you alone after so long.

Me, too.

Will you ask me out again?

Of course.

Great! Well then.

- See you. - Yeah.

Take care.

I'm back.

Welcome home.

What's wrong?

I think I've had something stolen from me.

What's that?

- My heart. - Huh?

Seems like I've fallen head over heels for Nanami-san.

- Are you serious? - Yes, I am.

Give me a break.

Whenever I clean or do laundry, I can't get her out of my head!

Why are you speaking honorific language?

- Cause, you're my future brother-in-law. - Huh?

Kanazawa Kohei.

It was a fate to meet Nanami-san again.

I finally realized my true love.

Out of all these people, why Nanami?

But, she doesn't seem to care about me.

We are living under the same roof, Nanami!

She's not interested in you. And stop using honorifics.

Don't be so cruel. Give me some advice, will you?

What do you think should I do? Should I confess?

If I confront her honestly with my true feelings,

I think it makes her heart flutters.

I don't think she would.

Think of Nanami's feelings.

Nanami's feelings?

Brother-in-law, where are you going?

Going to take a bath.

I'll wash your back!

Please don't! Don't come in!

It's room #415.

Okay, thank you.

Are you feeling lonely since I'm not there?

What? I feel great even if you are there, Kokomi.

Really? But you always lose a game, whenever I'm not there.

You are wrong. I always win, you know?

- I'll be going. - Okay.

- Can you make this year? - Eh?

- I think... - You are not popular at all.

Right back at you!

Bye.

Who was that? Your boyfriend?

He's just my classmate.

What a cute hairpin. Did he give it to you?

Shut up. It doesn't matter.

What did he mean by, "can you make it this year"?

Fireworks festival.

Last year, when we accidentally went there together, and we promised each other.

If we don't have a girlfriend or boyfriend by then, we'll go together again.

Wow, that's great.

Their memento?

Yes. Husband's parents are renovating their house right now.

It's a scrap wood from the old house.

Their height from when they were little, marked on that post.

Can we can use it for their new house?

I like it. Can you make an arrangement?

Okay.

- Aoi! - Yes.

Are you interested in this?

A competition?

Tominaga is also entering.

Why don't you try out your skill?

Yes, thank you very much.

Akari.

How are doing with Yamashiro-san? Are you getting along with her?

Yup.

I'm on my break, so do you want to have tea with me?

Ah, I have to go to my part-time job.

By they way, did you come to my house yesterday?

I thought I left my window open, but

when I went home, the window was closed.

No, I didn't.

I see.

- I'm sorry. I have to go. - Okay.

Good work.

You, too.

Takada-san at #423, how is his condition?

His vitals are stable now.

Good. I hope his condition stays this way.

Hey, Aoi-kun.

Hmm?

What?

Who was the guy you were meeting at the parking lot yesterday?

Why did you give him money?

Are you in some kind of trouble?

It's none of your business, Sawada.

Good work. I'm sorry, but...

I think Doctor Aoi had a guest yesterday evening.

Wait a minute, please.

That's him.

Thanks.

Serizawa... [ Serizawa Hirotoshi ]

Cheers!!

Well, for a moment, I didn't know what was going to happen.

But, you were amazing, Mariko-san.

The storage underneath the stairs is a fantastic idea.

I hate your talent, Mariko-san.

Not at all.

- Thanks to Miura-kun, we were able to conclude the contract. - What?

You persuaded the husband, right?

No, I didn't do anything.

You can be useful every once in a while.

Damn you, Miura.

Oh, right. Do you want to listen?

If the Queen of England hear his speech, she will be in shock.

Someone you love from bottom of your heart...

W-wait!!

is staying by your side since you are born...

Why did you record it?

- Just because. - Just because?

How could you say that in front of others?

How embarrassing.

Leave me alone. I'm deleting this.

Did you say something similar to seduce Ruiko-san?

I saw you two last night.

What? What?

Did you take photos secretly?

- Just because - Stop saying that!

- Since when did you get back with Ruiko-san? - I did not.

Is that why you're getting into your stride lately?

You are easy to read.

We're not together!

- It's enough about me. - No!

If you going to get back together, don't break up in a first place.

You are rack of commitment.

Listen. As a man, when you decided to be with someone,

Commit yourself to spend rest of your life...

Gosh, girls don't like as such.

Even if you get back with her, it won't work.

I'm sure you'll break up again for the same reason.

I'm not sure about that.

Good and bad, he already knows her temperament.

As knowing that, he's trying to get back together.

That means, his love for her is very deep.

You are great as always, Mariko-san.

Unlikely someone here, well said.

Tominaga, you are being too skeptical.

Hey, don't be depressed. It's fine.

Isohara-san!

- You're fine. - That's right.

- So... - Oh!

Just be honest, what's going on with Ruiko-chan?

I'm not sure...

I think she's great. She is thoughtful,

funny and beautiful.

I guess...

I was told not to tell you, but,

Ruiko-chan told me when we went out for a drink.

"I regretted that I broke up with Aoi. It was stupid", she said.

I guess she realized that after she lost you.

I think she is worth to be considered again.

Akari, the bathroom is all yours.

Wait. You are feeding too much.

I'm sorry. I'll go get a scooper.

Okay, don't worry about it.

- Have a seat. - But...

It's fine. I'll do it.

So... what happened?

What?

What do you mean by "what"? Do you think I didn't notice?

How long do you think we've been friends?

Tell me anything. I'll listen.

Are you serious?

So it wasn't coincidence that you met Shota-kun again?

Wait a minute, that means... you weren't necessary dumped by Aoi-kun.

Or it could be some kind of misunderstanding.

I think you should talk to him properly.

I can't believe Shota-kun would steel your letter.

I can't. What if it wasn't misunderstanding?

If he really intend to take that letter...

How about... you ask Aoi-kun instead.

You should confirm that he hasn't read the letter.

If he has, then you know it is misunderstanding.

Right? let's do that.

Okay then, let's drink a beer.

I'm home!

Welcome home.

Ah, it is heavy.

Hey, what do you have there?

Well, I want to invite Nanami-chan to a BBQ.

Why don't you come, too. It's awkward if it's just two of us.

Well, it's fine but why BBQ?

Didn't you tell me?

I have to consider Nanami-chan's feelings.

I'm sure she's tired from job hunting.

So I want to cheer her up for a change.

Hmm...

I'm home.

Welcome back!

Nanami-chan! Nanami-chan!

- Let's go to BBQ. - Not going!

At least, think for a second. One second.

- By car? - No, by train.

Then, absolutely not. That's too tiring.

I don't have a driver's license.

How lame! You should at least have a license.

Dahhh!

Why don't we ask Ruiko to take us since she has a car?

That's great, brother-in-law. Can we?

I think. Do you like that better?

I guess.

Great! Then, why don't we invite Akari and Shota as well?

Idiot!

I think it's great. Why don't we?

No, no, no.

What?

Because... right?

What is it??

Well, you know...

it must be hard for you to watch Akari and Shota together, right?

Eh? Why?

Since you... you know... about Akari...

You still like her, don't you? You are too obvious.

To be honest, seeing her after so long,

I remember how I used to feel for her.

But I'm over her now.

So let's invite everyone. More the merrier.

- Do you want a beer, Kohei? - Yup.

Hello?

Akari? It's me. Are you free this Sunday?

I'm free. But why?

Do want to go BBQ with Aoi and us?

Don't worry, we are not taking subway.

Ruiko-san is driving us.

Is that right? I should go then.

That's great.

Can you let Shota know, too?

- Hello? Can you hear me? - Ah,

yup. I'll ask him. I think he's working that day.

See ya.

I'm glad it's nice weather today.

Yeah. I'm sorry to ask for your car suddenly.

Not at all. It's been a while since I'm going for a drive or BBQ.

Thank you for inviting me.

You always liked outdoor, didn't you?

? Stop the season in the sun.

- Are those fireworks? - You brought so many.

Akari-chan!

I'm sorry I'm late.

Where's Shota?

Like I thought, he can't come because of his work.

Seriously?

Geez, that's too bad.

- Okay, let's head out. - Let's go.

Oh my gosh, gosh, gosh! I'm having so much fun!

You know... you know, this is like "Ainori", isn't it? (Reality TV program)

Like how?

Hey, Akari. You are gloomy today!

What? I'm cheerful!

Don't you wish Shota was here?

Right.

Next time, let's go somewhere together on his break.

Let's do that.

That sounds great! Let's plan a summer-like event.

You are too noisy.

My goodness! This is super cool.

Is this your family's villa, Ruiko-san?

No. Because of my dad's business,

I can rent this place cheap.

Nanami-chan!

- Hey, Aoi. - Hmm?

I have something to ask you.

Aoi! You, too, Akari-chan.

Let's decide the everyone's assignment by drawing.

Okay.

I can wait until later.

I'm going to buy ingredients! I'm at the supermarket now!!

I've got the BBQ sauce!

When I'm done with shopping, I'll be back right away.

Does he need to report every time?

I'm sure he's feeling lonely by himself.

Kohei, he really like you, Nanami-chan.

I'm not interested. He's absolutely not serious about me.

You think so?

I'm sure you know, Akari-chan. Kohei is susceptible.

So I'm ignoring him.

What if he is serious?

Not gonna happen. No, no, no.

He used to call me...

"glasses-straps".

I'm getting up-set just thinking about it.

You became really cute.

But, today's BBQ,

he planed it for you, Nanami-chan.

- Really? - Since you must be tired from job hunting.

Is that so.

Surprisingly thoughtful, right?

But, I like someone who only looks at me.

It was my ideal type of love,

you and my brother.

Why is that?

Because...

you guys loved each other since you are little.

- Stop kidding! We weren't! - You weren't?

That's true. I've never thought of him that way.

At least, my brother liked you.

About the other day, Aoi.

You said, you were over Akari-chan, right?

Yeah.

What about it?

You might think it's over, but...

when you spend time together, do you think

you want to be together again?

I don't.

I... have been thinking that.

Eh?

I'm really enjoying being with you.

I'm back!

Welcome back!

Thanks.

Not at all. Did you find it?

Yes, I did.

That's good.

Okay, it's ready.

Nanami-chan, Nanami-chan, your meat is ready.

Here, please have some.

You don't like meat?

Thanks.

Cold-shoulder was nice, but I like you being obedient, too!

You splashed everywhere!

What are you doing?

- Nanami-chan. - At least, take your clothes off.

Seriously...

- You are ridiculous. - Tada!

- Wow, what's that? - I brought it for this special occasion.

Can you open it?

Are you still scare to open it?

No, I'm not.

- Why are you scared? - Eh? No, I'm not.

I know you are scared.

It's too bad you couldn't come today.

Let's play next time.

[ Call Akari ]

[ Incoming Call: Toto University Hospital (Surgical Dept.) ]

Yes.

I understand. I'll be right there.

I'm drawing blood, okay?

Kokone-chan, how do you feel?

Doctor Aoi is assisting the emergency surgery,

so I'll be examining you today.

Wow, you've been using this a lot.

Is this yours, Kokone-chan?

My tutor left it.

I told her I can search on web.

Who is tutoring you?

Intern's girlfriend.

I see.

You didn't know he has a girlfriend?

Are you shocked?

Don't be ridiculous. Okay, let's draw blood.

[ Serizawa Akari ]

Good work, today.

Serizawa Akari...

you gave money

to her father, right?

Hey, what's going on? What was that about?

Are you okay? Why did you give money...

I told you, didn't I?

It's none of your business, Sawada.

Mind your own business.

Akari.

- Hm? - Here, watermelon.

Thanks.

Isn't this nostalgic, being like this.

We used to eat watermelon together all the time.

Yeah, we did.

We used to complete who can spit the seeds farther.

We did.

I always won anyway.

- No, I did. - No, I did.

- I did. - It was me.

- Me. - Me!

You see?

As usual, you hate losing, don't you?

You do, too.

- Oh, right. What did you want to ask me? - Ah!

What is it?

Being modest like that, doesn't suit you.

Aoi...

do you remember about the letter?

Letter?

What do you mean?

We watched the fireworks together, right?

After that I put it inside your desk.

I didn't see anything.

- You wrote a letter? - If you haven't read it, then forget it.

No, what did you write?

Next year...

I said, don't drink milk before your exam.

You get stomachache when you nervous.

It was rough during the high school exam, wasn't it?

You locked yourself in the restroom during the break.

What the heck? I wrote a letter

to tell me that?

Sorry, sorry.

Hey, guys! It's not fair.

Let us eat watermelon, too!

One piece...

you are going to buy it, right?

Fireworks... let's go together.

I hope the weather will be nice.

? It was only a little, but the two of us were hurt ?

Where's Aoi?

He asked me go instead.

I have to go.

Sorry.

I wanted to watch it with you, Aoi.

Fireworks. Bye-bye, Aoi.

? Without finding any answer, ? [ To Aoi: I always liked you. ]

We watched the fireworks together, right?

After that, I put it inside your desk.

I didn't see anything.

The summer of a year after that.

A year later?

? so why, so why... ?

? Then, I realized ?

? true love, true love ?

I left him a note to meet me a year later.

But he didn't come.

? The wind that blows in the gap of time ?

? In the corner of the classroom ? - Serizawa-san?

? Your hair was swaying, and I was just charmed ?

When and where did you two meet again?

I think it was winter.

? I fell in love with you, it's almost ?

So it wasn't a coincident,

to meet Shota-kun again?

? It was only natural to be by your side ?

? I've always imagine in the future would be the same without hesitation ?

? In the summer you were here ?

? unable to express my feelings well, oh. ?

? Why are our two hearts drifting away? So why, so why... ?

Hello?

Tomorrow, can we meet?

I have something to tell you.

Yeah, okay.

Then, at the hospital, 3 o'clock.

See you.

Serizawa Akari-san?

Yes...

Can I talk to you for a moment?

- Competition, huh? - Yeah.

Isohara-san suggested that I should enter.

Wow, that's great.

Why don't you try it. I like your design.

I feel more confident after hearing that from you.

Okay.

Hey, Aoi.

Hhmm?

Do you want to get back together?

I know I'm being selfish, but

can you give me once more chance?

I'm sorry to startle you like this.

You don't need to answer me right away. Just think about it.

Yeah, okay.

What is your intention to date Doctor Aoi?

Eh?

I did some research on you.

Your family business, shipyard had dept, then went brankrupt, right?

So you are after his money, right?

What are you saying. I'm not!

Then, how do you explain the 500,000 yen?( about US$5,000)

What are you talking about?

I saw...

your dad was right over there,

accepting money from Doctor Aoi.

Here is 500,000 yen.

Please stay out of Akari's life.

Aren't you trying to deceive him with your father?

From now on, stay away from him.

[ Tateyama Station ]

Akari?

What's wrong? I was waiting for you to come.

Akari?

My father...

did you meet my father?

Your colleague, Sawada-san told me.

Hey, you met him, right?

What's going on? Tell me.

Aoi accidentally met your father at work.

Then, we learned that he is living in Tokyo.

Why didn't you tell me?

Why?

Why did you give him money?

Did you give him money and tell him not to see me anymore?

Why did you do that?

Why?!

I've been wanting to see him for so long.

For a long time, I wanted to see him.

I believed you understood my feeling

more than anybody else.

I... really don't understand what are you thinking.

Everything was lie?

We looked for him together,

and you said I'll surely meet him again.

That summer, meeting you again at Toyama.

The manga I gave it back to Aoi. Why do you have it?

The note I wrote for Aoi, why do you have it in there?

You knew, because you read a note.

That day, I was coming back to Toyama.

I was coming back to see Aoi.

It wasn't a coincident, was it?

Sorry.

What do you mean, sorry?

I...

I've always liked you, Akari.

Because I like you.

I didn't want you to see Aoi.

But...

I hated myself that I can't do anything about it.

I was tormented for a long time.

After I started to date you,

I was scared all the time.

I always questioned myself,

Aoi is in your heart.

When I learned Aoi is living in Tokyo.

I decided to let you see him.

What do you mean?

Even after seeing Aoi,

I wanted to feel assured that you'll choose me over him.

What are you saying?

So you were doubting me all this time?

I like you, Shota.

I'm happy to be your girlfriend.

I always thought that that day...

I was glad to have met you.

But you didn't trust me!

Then, let me ask you this!

After seeing Aoi, your feeling hasn't been wavered even a little?

Didn't you think when you found a note?

If Aoi has read the note,

your fate has been set to a different path.

You are the worst.

Did I wake you up?

No.

How is your job hunting going?

Hmm, so-so.

I see.

Do your best.

Sleep in your room before you catch a cold.

What's going on with you lately?

What?

Are you getting back with Ruiko-san?

Probably.

You must be thinking that I'll be dumped again.

I suppose.

I'm going to bed.

- Goodnight! - Goodnight.

Do your best.

[ When can we meet next time? I have something to tell you. ]

How about tomorrow?

What are you smiling about?

I'm not! Ah, w-wait!

Don't take my phone.

I see what you are up to.

Are you submitting, too, Miura-kun?

Yes, it's good to try my skill.

I don't think I'll lose to you, Miura-kun.

[ Erika-san Incoming Call ]

Hello?

Hi, did hear from Akari?

Is there something happened?

Akari hasn't been home since yesterday.

I can't get hold of her.

When I called Shota-kun, he was acting strangely.

What should we do? I hope she doesn't act recklessly.

? The wind that blows in the gap of time ?

? In the corner of the classroom ?

? Your hair was swaying, and I was just charmed ?

? I fell in love with you ?

Shota!

Shota!

? It was only natural to be by your side ?

What's going on with you?

Did something happen between you and Akari?

Hey, Shota!

Answer me!

It's over.

Huh?

It's over... between us.

? cannot be reached ?

? true love, true love ?

~Preview~ Didn't you tell me?

You won't let her be alone. Did you forget that?

I wanted to protect Akari.

I want to hear your answer from the other day.

You'll only regret deceiving your true feelings.

I know Akari's whereabouts.

Aoi!

Why don't I connect the a fish tank?

She seems to be looking for her father.

- You have a great brother. - Yup.

In this world, it's so-called love.

Why nothing goes right in our lives?

I... liked Akari.
