00:00I like you, wanna go out?
00:03Sorry, but can't.
00:06Karen's pulling mad attention as usual.
00:09I'm Hiro Tanaka.
00:11The girl who was being hit on is Ono Karen, who's my childhood friend.
00:16I'm the ultimate introvert, while Karen's the life of the party.
00:20She's all peppy and popular with everyone, a real heartthrob.
00:24Back in elementary, we weren't that different, or so it seemed.
00:30But now, it's like comparing night and day.
00:33This world's so unfair.
00:36How did things end up like this?
00:38What's with the spaced out look?
00:41Nothing, just thinking.
00:43Get it together, Hiro. Tighten up.
00:46I'm good. This is me.
00:49Ugh, why is my childhood bud so soft?
00:53Soft's better than stiff. Feels nicer, right?
00:57No one's gonna feel it, so don't worry.
01:00Karen's acting a bit harsh with me like this.
01:04It wasn't like this back in the day, but now.
01:07But no matter how harsh she gets, I still like Karen.
01:11It'd be easier if I liked someone else.
01:14I know a lot of her good points, that's why.
01:17What? Why are you staring at me?
01:21I wasn't staring at you.
01:23I mean, if you're falling for me, that's totally fine, though.
01:27Told you, wasn't staring. Got tired of it.
01:31What did you say?
01:33Karen, getting mad ruins your cute vibe.
01:37And as always, you two are all buddy-buddy.
01:41Not fair, being so close like that.
01:44Yeah, not fair.
01:47And there they are, the trio of hotties.
01:51They're Rina Aoki, Saya Yoshida, Maya Yamamoto.
01:55Looks like beauties attract beauties.
01:58These three are super popular with both guys and girls.
02:02Maybe it's cuz I'm close to Karen, or cuz I'm an introvert.
02:06It's weird these three tend to hang around me a lot.
02:09Guess introverts seem harmless to them.
02:12Hey, hey, always doing stand-up comedy together.
02:16Why not just date already?
02:19Huh?
02:21Since you're always so chummy, it got us curious.
02:25Just be honest.
02:28If you like each other, just get together already.
02:32Dating? No way. There's no way I'd match up with Karen.
02:37Hey, cuto, why the smirk?
02:41Wasn't smirking.
02:43Liar. You were smirking.
02:46You're so not Rina's type.
02:48What? Even though I like Karen, why'd she think like that?
02:53Open your eyes. For example, us. Nearby.
02:58Karen's always like that, jumping to conclusions.
03:01Come on, shut up.
03:04Why do you gotta say stuff about me all the time?
03:08Besides, I like you.
03:10You're always on about me, but you don't have a boyfriend either.
03:15What's your deal? Why are you saying that to me?
03:19Well...
03:20I'm done. I can get a bae whenever I want.
03:24Then go bag the guy who asked you out.
03:28I'd do that without you telling me.
03:30Anyway, it's only because you don't remember that promise.
03:33Promise?
03:35I don't care anymore. We're done.
03:39Alright then.
03:41Oh dear. But did you hear?
03:45Yeah, heard it.
03:49Perfectly.
03:51The next day.
03:52What's up with the we're done thing?
03:55Feels like a kiddie fight.
03:57But never had a fight this messed up before, right?
04:01Even after all those fights, never had a we're done moment.
04:06What am I even doing, man?
04:08How the heck do I patch this up?
04:10Found ya!
04:12Whoa, Rina, what's up?
04:15You and Karin are done, so it's my chance.
04:19Chance?
04:20We've been eyeing you forever, but held back because of Karin.
04:25Held back? What's that even mean?
04:28Our top concern? Rival. Losing.
04:32Seriously, what are you guys talking about?
04:35Basically, it's a chance to snag ya. I like you.
04:39I like you so much.
04:42So, wanna go out?
04:44Huh? Why's it turn out like that?
04:47Hey! I was gone for a second, and this?
04:52What do you mean? We're just confessing.
04:55When the rival's MIA, it's prime time.
04:58All of us like Hiro.
05:00Huh? Really? You never showed that vibe before.
05:05Just held back cause of you.
05:08No way. Now, time to shower you with our love.
05:13Love ya, love ya. Lemme kiss.
05:17Wh-what?
05:19And so, for some reason, I got a wild attack from the trio of hotties.
05:25One day...
05:26Morning, Hiro.
05:28Morning, Rina. Can we hold off on the hugging for now?
05:32Why?
05:34People not dating don't just go around hugging, you know?
05:37Never heard of that.
05:39Well, now you know, so come on.
05:42No can do.
05:44Hey! No mingling with the opposite sex!
05:47No! What's with you, Karin?
05:51Not the time for embarrassing stuff since morning.
05:54Embarrassing? Just hugging, that's all.
05:58That's not okay, I'm telling you.
06:01Geez. If you want some loving, Karin, you should just say it.
06:06I-I never said that.
06:08No need to get all shy. I get you.
06:12Come on, just be straight with it, okay?
06:16Ah!
06:17Whoa!
06:19Ow!
06:22Ouch. You good, Karin?
06:26I-I'm fi-
06:29Karin?
06:31Ah! Hiro, you!
06:34I was the one who got tackled, right?
06:37And where's Rina?
06:39What was that all about, seriously?
06:42On another day.
06:44Phew. Think that's everything.
06:47Thanks for helping me.
06:50Stuff's heavy. It'd be tough doing it alone.
06:53Plus, two's quicker than one, right?
06:56You are really kind, you know that?
07:00So, Hiro...
07:03Just the two of us.
07:06Um, Saya...
07:08I like you the most.
07:10Wonder if you're getting what I'm saying.
07:13Saya, you're too close.
07:16I'm doing it on purpose.
07:18Cause I want you to really get how I feel.
07:22Hey! No mingling with the opposite sex!
07:26Aw, come on. You're messing up.
07:30We were in the middle of something.
07:33I think that's not cool.
07:35Let's keep this relationship pure.
07:38If you're that into Hiro, be straight about it.
07:41Ah!
07:43Ah!
07:45Whoa, you okay, Karin?
07:48Um, uh...
07:50Hey, Saya, don't push like that.
07:53It's fine. I knew you'd catch her.
07:57But still...
07:59Ah!
08:00Hey, Karin, you sure you're okay?
08:03You've been zoning out.
08:05Ah! Hiro, you idiot!
08:08I didn't even do anything!
08:11And hey, Saya's gone too!
08:13What the heck's been going on here, seriously?
08:17On another day...
08:19Ugh, still got a headache.
08:21Morning.
08:23Morning, Maya?
08:26Came. Nursing.
08:29But still, this is...
08:32Good boy, good boy. There, there.
08:35Hold up, stop.
08:37I'm starting to kinda enjoy this petting.
08:41Hey!
08:43No mingling with the opposite sex!
08:47Busted!
08:50Not cool, doing embarrassing stuff like this.
08:54Karin, you here?
08:57Worried?
08:59N-n-n-no! It's not like that!
09:03No embarrassing.
09:05Nurse duty.
09:06Your turn.
09:08Ah!
09:09Whoa!
09:11You okay?
09:12Ah!
09:14Maya, don't pull like that.
09:16It's fine.
09:18Here on the bed, nice and cushy.
09:22Yeah, but...
09:24Ah!
09:26Hey, Karin, you really okay?
09:29Ah! Hiro, you idiot!
09:32C'mon, I didn't do anything!
09:35And wait, déjà vu again!
09:38And of course, Maya's gone too!
09:40What is up with everyone?
09:42This kept happening for a while.
09:45Hey, all three of you.
09:47Yeah?
09:49What's wrong?
09:51What, what?
09:53If you all crowd around like that, it's awkward to eat.
09:57Nope, it's all good.
10:00Just in your head.
10:02Your head, your head.
10:04Hiya!
10:06No mingling with the opposite sex!
10:10All three of you, give Hiro some space!
10:13No way!
10:15Hey, Karin, why are you getting in the way?
10:18You don't have feelings for Hiro, right, Karin?
10:23Well, if you don't care, don't sweat us.
10:28Besides, we're kinda busy now.
10:31We've got a date to go on together.
10:34Huh? When did we agree to...
10:38Just now. It's okay.
10:41But I'm not okay with this though.
10:44I'll go too.
10:46Hey, what? You too?
10:49Alrighty then.
10:53Well then, let's all go on a date with all four of us.
10:57Seriously, where's my say in this?
11:00So we ended up going out together, but...
11:04That day.
11:06Hey, why are all three late?
11:09Wonder something might have happened?
11:12Huh? Got a message. What?
11:15What?
11:17Rina's feeling off, Saya's got home stuff, and Maya's...
11:21Off treasure hunting?
11:24What? What's with that?
11:27Anyway, it's just us from here on, you know?
11:31Should we bail?
11:33No way! We've wasted enough time getting here.
11:37Come on, let's go.
11:39Chilling at an amusement park with Karen, huh?
11:42Never thought we'd have a date vibe.
11:45Hey, what's with that spaced out look?
11:48N-nothing.
11:50Huh? Thought maybe you were freaked out by the haunted house ghost.
11:55What? Ain't no way this is scary.
11:58Aren't you the one freaking out?
12:01Why would I?
12:03Boo!
12:06Uh...
12:08Whoa, I guess you are scared.
12:12No, just tripped.
12:15Okay, I'm not scared at all.
12:19Then why are you sticking to me?
12:22Uh, well, um...
12:24Well, thought you were scary.
12:26You know, be thankful.
12:29No way I can focus on ghosts, cause my crush is sticking to me.
12:35Here.
12:36Grapes!
12:38Figured these could lift your spirits after the haunted house.
12:41Your favorite, right? Banana and heaps of whip.
12:45You remembered.
12:47No way I'd forget your taste.
12:49It's good!
12:52Glad you like them.
12:54Don't think this'll change my mood.
12:57Come on, cheer up already.
12:59Seems a waste not to eat, so gotta finish them all.
13:03But yeah, glad she smiled.
13:05Guess I like Karen's smile no matter what.
13:08Even after a fight.
13:10So, what's next?
13:12Uh...
13:14What's up?
13:15Nothing.
13:16Can't be nothing.
13:18Leg hurt?
13:19Uh...
13:21Here, sit.
13:23Oh, gotta shoe rub here.
13:25This isn't much, really.
13:28Don't lie.
13:29Gotta hurt.
13:30Come on, I'll carry you.
13:33Ugh.
13:34Man, this takes me back.
13:36Remember, I gave you a piggy ride like this.
13:39Yeah.
13:41Hey, Hiro?
13:43Since back then...
13:45Yeah, but you got heavier than back then.
13:49Ugh!
13:50Don't understand girls, huh?
13:52Put me down!
13:54Calm down!
13:56Shut up! Put me down!
13:59Fine, I'll get some juice to fix your mood.
14:02Orange juice.
14:04Alright, alright, got it.
14:07Why can't you remember?
14:09Idiot.
14:11Ten minutes later.
14:13Come on, where's the orange juice?
14:15Went pretty far to get it.
14:18Seriously, what?
14:20Karen?
14:21Something's up.
14:23Hey, what are you doing?
14:25None of your business, buddy.
14:29No way, I'm gonna move.
14:31Don't you get closer.
14:33What's the deal?
14:34Are you two lovebirds?
14:36No, but...
14:38Then it don't matter.
14:40If it's not an important person for you, don't barge in.
14:44Hiro.
14:46What are you saying?
14:48Karen's someone important to me.
14:50I won't let anyone lay a finger on her.
14:53Oh, she's someone special, huh?
14:56Oh wow, she's precious?
14:59Precious? Important?
15:03Well, can't help that, huh?
15:06Not fun at all.
15:08If she's got a boyfriend, we can't do a thing.
15:11Alright, let's go.
15:14Karen, you good?
15:16I'm fine, but...
15:18Hey, what do you mean, important?
15:23Uh, well, that's...
15:26Uh, actually...
15:29I feel the same way about you.
15:32What?
15:34Um...
15:35Uh...
15:37Uh...
15:38Geez, why can't you just be honest?
15:42Honestly, important.
15:45It's too frustrating, seriously.
15:49Those guys from earlier?
15:51Why are you guys back?
15:53Can't recognize?
15:55As expected, you are an idiot.
15:58Idiot, idiot.
16:00What? Rina, you guys, why?
16:04Huh?
16:06We've been tailing you two cause we were worried.
16:09We disguised ourselves as guys to be able to back you up anytime.
16:14To Honesty, Mission.
16:17Guys, thanks for being there for us.
16:21Sorry for the trouble.
16:24We're totally fine with it.
16:26We like you, Karen, you know?
16:28Yeah, if you don't want her, Karen's ours.
16:32Karen, like you.
16:35What?
16:37What's going on?
16:39Karen's been real kind to us.
16:41When I was bellyaching and nearly crying,
16:44She went with me to the nurse's office.
16:47When I fell, Karen patched me up.
16:50Back in freshman year, when I got in trouble with seniors, she had my back.
16:55We love Karen.
16:57Then why come at me?
17:00Karen's shy in front of someone she likes and can be a bit harsh.
17:04Needs a push to be honest.
17:07We just want Karen to be happy.
17:10That's why we acted up.
17:13Sorry, our real target's Karen.
17:17Oh, it was like that.
17:20So, is Karen ours?
17:23No way, I also like Karen.
17:26From way back, it's always been Karen I've had a thing for.
17:30Then why can't you remember that promise?
17:33Promise?
17:35Back in nursery school, the promise to get married.
17:39Oh, come to think of it, we did promise.
17:43Now you remember?
17:45Just now, finally.
17:47I've been liking you ever since then.
17:50And even now.
17:52Sorry for being stubborn all this while.
17:55After we got into middle school, you suddenly became hot, so...
17:59I got nervous and couldn't speak straight.
18:03So, all that being harsh thing was just to hide you being shy?
18:08Yeah.
18:11Well, in that case, all those things were super cute too.
18:15I like you so much, Karen.
18:18I like you so much too.
18:21And so, Karen and I went from childhood friends to lovers.
18:25Even after becoming a couple, the trio of hotties cling to Karen.
18:29Even though Karen never wavers, the competition for her continues.
18:33As for us, we're still the same.
18:36It's bamboo shoots!
18:38Absolutely mushrooms!
18:43Sorry, I went too far.
18:45Me too.
18:49From now on, let's be more honest.
18:52Like this.
18:54I like you so much, Hiro.
18:57Me too, Karen.
