The rain came out of nowhere.

Dry your hair with that.

[Lantern Summer Festival]

7 p.m...

By the clocktower at Triangle Park.

Tanaka transferred?

Yes, he moved over the summer.

Of course, he wouldn't be here.

You're lacking any appeal, Ms. Bread.

- You know, Tanaka-kun... - As I said, I'm not "Tanaka." It's "Mabuchi."

I'll just focus on staying true to myself.

Criticizing someone might make you feel better,

but you're only stroking your own ego!

You're the one who told me I was just "playing" friends.

I guess that shows how much this was weighing on you.

Kou?

- Did you watch last night's match? - Yes.

- Now that was awesome! - Yes, it was!

Definitely.

- The pressure was on! - Yes, it was epic!

He's already found a clique.

I didn't expect that final penalty kick.

-That was so exciting. - Awesome.

Didn't you think so?

- Who cares about classes anyway? - Yes, seriously.

We have to get out on the field, man!

Men are all about soccer.

You said it, man.

Definitely!

Why am I even getting my hopes up?

Good morning.

Good morning.

I heard all the girls avoided that girl last year.

What? Why?

I don't know, but something is going on.

Makita-san, look. It's the keychain you gave me.

You're using it. I'm glad!

- Now we match. - Yes.

She seems totally normal though?

Yes, she seems nice.

Wait... The girl next to her got into a huge fight last year.

Seriously? Is she a delinquent?

Maybe worse...

Does that mean Makita-san is also in on it?

Good morning, Murao-san.

Good morning.

[Journey of the Wild Delinquent]

[Murao Shuko]

What are you reading?

Never mind...

Perfect.

[Notice: Regarding the Class Leaders Training Camp]

[Advisor: Tanaka Yoichi]

Murao.

Do you want to join us for karaoke?

No, thanks.

Are you busy today?

Not really.

Then come! All of us could be in the same class.

Well, I have no interest in the class.

[Kominato Aya]

Wait for me!

Shota, Reiya!

Miya! Let's play!

Alone again, wallowing in self-pity?

Have you decided this year you'll be gloomy instead of crude?

No...

I just realized things aren't so easy.

"Things," like what?

Well, since we have new classmates and all,

I thought it'd be a great time for a do-over...

But it seems like I'd better not do anything.

I can only hope someone leads the class in a good direction.

[Suwa Shrine]

You're right; no one will lose out if you don't try.

But at the same time...

No one will lose out if you do.

Besides, the year has only just begun.

Do what you feel is right.

Any volunteers?

Dragging this out only means you get dismissed later.

If you feel like complaining, volunteer for us. [Ichijo Kaoru, Year 2 Class 3 Homeroom Teacher]

Really? No one?

I'll do it. I volunteer to be Class Representative!

[Ao Haru Ride Season 1]

[Class Representative: Yoshioka Futaba]

[Episode 2]

Now we have to elect a Boys Representative.

Any volunteers?

Anyone?

Anyone who will pep up the class with me?

Volunteers? Anyone?

I want to make our Class 3

a class where no one feels isolated or alone.

Will anyone join me in making this a welcoming class?

Anyone–

What...

I don't mind doing it.

If no one else volunteers, Mabuch-kun will be our Boys Class Representative.

Great. Mabuchi-kun, come help her out.

Yes, Ma'am.

What?

Thanks.

What? I only volunteered to get this over with.

Alright, now we need three people for the Events Committee. Anyone?

Murao-san?

Oh, me, too!

That leaves one more person.

Makita-san...

I'd also like to join the Events Committee.

Thanks, you three.

The Events Committee will be quite busy. Are you three sure about this?

Positive.

Of course.

Remember, Class Representatives and members of the Events Committee

have to attend a three-days-two-nights training course, okay? [Leaders Training]

Yes, Ma'am.

[Class Leaders Training Camp - Day 1]

"The significance of school events"...

- Any ideas? - If "camp" is in the name, why are we at school? Real bummer.

Well... This is group discussion time,

- so let's discuss... - Why?

What?

What's the point of this "leaders camp" anyway?

Well–

The purpose of this camp is to strengthen the bond between class leaders,

and thus, the class as a whole.

Tanaka Sensei just explained this.

He did?

Weren't you listening?

Of course not. Tanaka's lectures are always boring.

What? Tanaka Sensei is—

Let's discuss our thoughts on school events.

Makita-san, do you have anything?

Well... I'm still thinking about it.

Murao-san?

Nothing in particular.

- Minato-kun... - Lights out at 10 p.m.? That's way too early

I don't think I can handle this group...

Sorry, I'm late.

- Finally. - You are too late, man!

Everyone was judging us for missing a representative.

Exactly! What the heck were you doing?

- Sleeping. - Excuse me?

Mabuchi. Do you realize what time it is?

Now listen. Class Reps act as an example to other students— [Hasebe Toshio, Second Year Academic Director]

Yes, yes, sorry, Sir.

What's with the attitude?

Hasebe Sensei! So sorry about him.

I'll make sure he's not late again.

Why is Tanaka Sensei apologizing?

Who knows...

Please do.

- Kou. - Yes, yes. I'm reflecting on my actions.

Then turn in your written apology by bedtime today.

- Seriously? - Obviously. Do you feel sorry at all?

Tanaka Sensei, we have a question for you.

Coming.

Make sure to submit it.

What a pain...

I suggest you watch your actions.

Any problem you cause will only trouble Tanaka Sensei.

What I do is not my brother's business.

So you'll have someone totally uninvolved apologize for you?

You brat. No, you jackass!

Hold on. Brother?

What, you didn't know? Tanaka is Mabuchi's older brother.

- He is? - I didn't know, either...

It's no secret, but there's also no point in mentioning it.

Do you live together?

No, my brother has his own apartment.

He's my brother, but he's also my teacher.

I live with my dad instead.

And your mom?

She didn't move back with you?

No, just me.

Are you not changing your last name back?

- Well, it's complicated. - I see.

All right, that's the end of group discussion time.

We'll be calling on some groups to present their ideas later tonight, so be ready.

- Yes, Sir. - No way! What do we do...

Everyone go to the gymnasium. [What do you believe is the significance of school events?]

If you're picked, make it up on the spot.

On the spot?

Okay, that will do.

Okay, let's hear your opinions about the significance of the school events.

First up... How about Class 1?

Yes, Sir.

By participating in school events, we believe students will learn basic societal principles.

These events also allow students to develop and realize skills

that apply outside the classroom...

Their answer is super well thought out.

As expected of the advanced class.

What did you write down?

Nothing as grand as theirs.

Great answer. A round of applause for Class 1.

Next, let's have... Class 3, how about you?

You jotted something down, didn't you?

[What do you believe is the significance of school events?] ["Making great memories!"]

What's the hold-up, Class 3? Hurry up.

The significance of holding school events

is to set goals and aspirations as a group,

thus building a unified sense of teamwork.

A fine answer. Applause for—

Hold on.

I feel like I almost get it but not quite.

Could you explain to us why you thought "unity" was important?

What? That's because working as a group

makes it possible to do things that were unfeasible alone...

["Making great memories!"]

But it's also so the class can look back on these memories,

with the same fondness as everyone else.

I see. Yes, that sounds nice.

All right, applause for Class 3.

Next, let's hear from... Class 5.

Don't act so surprised. It's your answer.

Good answer. A round of applause for Class 5.

Hey, it's almost time to turn the lights off.

I can't sleep. I'm too frustrated.

You're amazing, Kou.

You can do anything effortlessly

while I'm out here struggling every time

and still manage to fail.

I wish I could be more like you...

And I'm frustrated that I can't.

I just go with the flow.

I only look composed because I lack the motivation to care.

You're far more respectable than I am.

Because...

The reason you're feeling so down...

proves you want to change yourself for the better.

So...

So you don't need to become like me.

Kou... You don't want to change yourself?

I'm fine as I am. Being like this.

If I cruise along, life should work out.

So that's "Mabuchi Kou."

Do you like being "Mabuchi Kou"?

Why did "Tanaka-kun" disappear?

Who cares about someone who's long gone?

I care!

You leave, then come back, and I'm just confused, okay!

There's a lot I'm still processing.

Don't shout, you'll make my ears ring.

Sorry.

The Lantern Festival.

What?

Did you wait for me at Triangle Park?

Of course, I did. I kept waiting.

I planned on meeting you there.

But as soon as summer vacation began

my family became an absolute mess.

A lot happened.

I'm sorry I left you waiting there alone.

Sorry.

You were going through a lot more than I was.

I've been inconsiderate.

Well...

I have the apology to submit.

Good night.

Everything Kou opened up to me about...

may be stuff he didn't want to bring up at all.

But the fact that he did anyway...

had me searching for the "Tanaka-kun" I used to know.

♫ I can't put it into words well enough ♫

[English Teachers' Faculty Lounge]

♫ Gazing at you ♫

Good, you actually wrote it.

Hey, about the presentation earlier...

You came up with all that on the spot, didn't you?

It was nice to hear you talking about teamwork for once, though.

Right. Because it's a very "Tanaka Kou" thing to say.

[So the class can look back on these memories, with the same fondness as everyone else.]

What is it that I want to do?

If the "Tanaka-kun" I knew still exists...

Then I...

Kou?

Mabuchi-kun, I like you.

Please go out with me.

He's getting confessed to...

Thanks.

But I'm sorry.

I see.

Sorry about this then.

Thanks for hearing me out.

What are you doing here?

Peeping? Tasteless.

I was not peeping!

If you insist.

That girl was cute.

Yes.

What a missed opportunity.

Or do you have a girlfriend already?

No.

Then a crush?

Why are you asking?

What?

Hey.

Do you like me or something?

[Next Episode] This camp is meant to strengthen our bonds with each other.

Let's do our best with our task.

Is it really okay for me to exist?

What's wrong with existing?

I'm a teacher.

I can't tell whether you're being mean or kind.

It's impossible that I'd date you, anyway.
