Midnight Sun (Taiyo no uta / A Song to the Sun) (タイヨウのうた)

She's coming! Kaoru's up.

Okay.

Going tonight too?

Yeah.

Ever night! Anybody show up?

Well...

So, why bother?

I don't mind.

Well, since I'm free today,

maybe we'll go watch.

Do that, you die.

Got it.

Check sunrise time?

Yeah.

That answer won't do.

It's 4:40 AM.

So, be home by 4:00 AM.

I know that.

Don't go far, okay?

Alright.

So, let's eat.

With thanks.

Look, she must be a minor.

It's so late. We'd better check.

No, she's okay. Her parents explained.

Explained what?

They said it's called "XP",

It's genetic, like an allergy to UV where sunlight can kill.

What?

It means she can go outside only at night.

Who is it that I'm living for?

Sometimes as I pass These dark days yeah

The weakness and pain

I feel is the Only thing I know

Even if yesterday Was disappointing

And even if My dream for today

Doesn't always come to be Yeah yeah

Does that mean Night's twinkling stars

Have just disappeared?

Or did they go To tomorrow?

Tomorrow never knows

It's happy line

Who is it that I'm living for?

Midnight Sun

I'll go ahead.

- Hey! - You're here?

You truant again?

Hey. Where's Kaoru?

She just slept. Don't wake her, she'll get mad.

Not if it's me.

Up'

Did you make another new one?

Yes, the old one's too small.

Kaoru probably won't want to wear it.

I know, but...

Misaki, it's awkward to say, but,

don't take things from the fridge.

Okay!

It's amazing he can't improve at all.

But it's kind of cute that he tries so hard.

Hey, the sun looks awfully high!

No! It's already 10:00 AM!

No way!

Koji, come on! We're late again!

What?

Thank you. Coming right up.

Seafood salad and Pizza Margherita, please.

What's there?

Oh, nothing.

Scared, Kaoru?

Don't look so gloomy

You see the smiling face

Making everyone happy?

Even if you can't smile Yeah yeah

Tomorrow's thoughts within

Laughing through the tears

Tomorrow never knows

It's happy line.

You know him?

Where you going?

Ouch!

I'm Amane, Kaoru.

What?

I'm Amane, Kaoru.

Huh?

I'm Amane, Kaoru.

So what?

I'm 16. I live with my parents.

I like music. I'm quick-tempered.

No boyfriend.

Huh?

I've watched you for so long. No boyfriend.

Oh, okay, I see...

Not one.

Hang on...

I like cheetahs. My favorite banana is food.

My favorite musicians, too many to say...

Kaoru!

Excuse us!

What?

Not what!

Stay out of it.

Stay out? I just saved you from a mess.

Huh?

Don't say huh.

He was about to turn you down.

A "favorite banana"?

That was all nonsense.

Shut up.

Haven't talked to a boy since grade school?

Who is he?

I think he goes to my high school.

I'm not sure, though.

You're always absent.

True!

So, you don't even know his name?

I just watch from here.

I see...

I wonder what he's like.

Maybe a good surfer?

Why not wear that outfit your mom made?

No way! He'd hate me in that.

I'll just have to go back to school and find out

- Will you? - Yes.

Referring not only to the antecedent,

but to elements thereof.

That's how to use the non-defining "which".

Here's another example.

It means he said Rome has the same population as Tokyo,

but obviously it is not true.

This use of "which" refers to the entire previous passage,

and as this usage is common, it should be remembered.

I'll test this next week.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

I can't make a diagnosis without examining her.

Sorry, she refused to come.

Still hates hospitals?

More than anything.

Is that so?

What's her condition?

Seems quite healthy. Just like regular teens.

Really? That's good news.

So, her condition hasn't worsened?

Hasn't worsened? The age you'd warned about.

Oh, that's true. Sorry to worry you.

Anyway, I'll prescribe anti-inflammatory medication.

Doctor, is there any...

I'm sorry, there's still no cure.

I see.

With XP, the nature of the illness...

varies greatly from patient to patient.

But one thing common to many cases...

is that even more than UV rays,

increasing neurological damage with aging is to be feared.

He's Fujishiro, Koji.

Fujishiro, Koji?

It's hot in here!

Fujishiro, Koji.

Is he sleeping?

No. He's rather dumb.

School's nicer than I thought.

Oh, you've never seen a high school.

Looks fun to me.

What? It's a total waste of time.

These three are usually together.

This is his friend Onishi, Yuta.

And his other friend Kato, Haruo.

I see.

Washed his hands?

Seems like he did.

Look at that!

So, now you know.

Generally, he's dumb and crude.

Good evening.

Good evening.

You're that girl, right?

Yeah.

I'm sorry about that.

No problem, forget it.

What are you doing here?

I'm going home. I often sing by the station.

Are you a street musician?

Well, I guess I am.

Really.

That was a good song. What's it called?

I haven't decided yet.

You wrote it yourself?

Wow, that's amazing!

Really?

And you?

Going surfing?

That's a nice board.

You think so?

I thought so too. I chose it carefully.

So, I got a good one!

It's second-hand, though...

How about that?

Huh?

Second-hand?

You live near here?
