kimagure orange road I want to return to that day

The day the college acceptance lists are to be posted...

The north wind whips through our hair, calming us, lending us courage...

February. Today, everything ends, yet also is about to begin...

Don't worry, kasuga. You've done your best already.

Yeah...

concerned about your weak muscles? Then come to archery class!

Don't cry if you fail! We'll see you next year!

We cheerleaders will always be here for you!

Don't worry, ayukawa. We've done our best, haven't we?

All

please make sure to come and see the play I'm in!

"Darling, please make real sure you come and see the play!"

Chapter I

you'll do just fine, darling! Please cheer up!

It's still only July, you know.

That's true, but...

It's no surprise you don't quite understand it, hikaru...

But upcoming college entrance exams can make a student a lot more apprehensive.

But still, there's plenty of time.

Why don't you have some of this to let your brain cool down a bit?

- Yeah... - Yippee!

Thank you!

Aren't freebies great, darling?

When it's your turn, hikaru, we'll see if you need ice cream therapy too.

Oh yeah!

Darling, please make real sure you come see the play!

Eh? It's the special production in honor of next year's graduates.

Oh...

"Downtown cats?" Wow, a real masterpiece!

Yes! And this time especially, as a koryo graduate, isao kobayashi...

Of the kisetsu-fu theater company, is gonna direct the play!

Really, it's a big deal...

Oh, so that's what kurumi and manami were fussing about.

You're talking about next year, and auditions have already started?

And before the final cast decisions, there'll be a series of tests.

Sheesh! That's just like the college entrance process...

Oh, come on, darling! Don't get so depressed.

Dark, gloomy cloud begone!

Actually, I'm going to audition!

My hikaru in a play?

Yup!

Darling, I know you're busy with your studies...

But please drop by once in a while to cheer me on.

'Cause just for you, darling, I'll make sure to get the lead!

Well, when the time comes...

"Yippee!" is how I'll try to feel when I go to watch...

Oh, please, darling!

You're too funny!

Can I put this poster up in here?

Ah, so there you are, kasuga.

- Ayukawa... - Here you go.

I got an extra one for you as well.

Yoyo seminars for seniors and high school grads

I, lua, '

yeah, I checked out a bunch of places. This one seems to be the best deal.

What do you think?

Hmm, yeah...

Madoka! We were just talking about this, but...

I'm sorry, but not now...

- There. That section, kasuga. - What?

There. Do you see the schedule?

You said you weren't that good with English grammar, so...

Yeah, it might be a good place.

Oh yeah, I gotta put this up.

Come on, kasuga! There's no point in signing up if you're not going to go!

But braving something like this all alone,

one probably would soon lose the will to continue going.

"Yoyo seminars. Apply now for third semester."

- Going somewhere? - Yep!

See? Let's see if the guys will be able to keep their cool when we wear these!

If komatsu and hatta get any worse...

True...

I wonder if there aren't some more exciting guys somewhere...

They seem to be really hard to find, don't they?

But do komatsu and hatta really have the time to hang around at the pool?

"You'd better give us some money..."

Is what they've told their parents, so it's all right, they say.

But more important than that... Hikaru, it was today, wasn't it?

How did it go?

Um, well, I think I survived.

Don't worry. You'll do just fine.

Ah! More provisions for the prisoner, eh?

'Cause darling really loves sweet things!

Well, have fun!

Dad's out right now, so if you get him too excited...

You'll be in trouble!

Knock it off, kurumi!

Come on! Come on! Come on! Pleeease!

Oh, you going out too, jingoro? You must be hot in all that fur.

Kasuga takashi, kyosuke, manami, kurumi

let's see... ayukawa's notes...

She said it was written somewhere in here.

Let's see, now where are the bowls?

Darling, I'm gonna root through the cupboard, okay?

Uh, should I help?

Darling, please stay seated. I'll take care of everything.

There you go.

Is "fill?

Sitting here like this, doesn't it feel like we're newlyweds?

Please! You don't have to look so startled!

Oh yeah! I better put the ice cream away!

You're so bashful, you know.

But I'd sure love to cook something healthy and tasty for you here.

I mean, if nothing else, I know I'm a good cook!

Is it distracting?

No, it's got a nice ring. And I can't stand it if it's too quiet.

Really? That's great!

Oh, you like wada kanako?

Yeah, you wanna listen?

How nice. I wish I had a cd player, too.

I'll dub this for you sometime.

Really? Thank you!

Oh, why don't we have a little more ice cream?

If I could be held by you...

If I could be held by you...

If I could be held by you...

Um, I was wondering, darling...

I would live without knowing tears...

I would live without knowing tears...

More that I could be doing for you...

But I want to try living intensely.

But I want to try living intensely.

I'm afraid that maybe I can't possibly know...

When I'm sad, let me cry.

When I'm sad, let me cry.

When I'm sad, let me cry.

Though I want to rest my wings...

In your gentle love...

In your gentle love...

I am a bird that keeps chasing a dream.

I am a bird that keeps chasing a dream.

A gift to help cheer you up. The best of luck to you, darling.

30 therefore, Mark up this section thoroughly...

And pound the information into your head.

Understand? The foundation of your studies should be data.

It's no use studying something that won't appear on the exam.

Especially, more recent history is what everyone forgets to study...

But the period from the late tokugawa to early showa accounted for 40% of last year's exam...

Ayukawa.

What's wrong, ayukawa?

Last week, hikaru came over to your place?

What? Yeah. Sort of a cease-fire from my studies, you might say.

"Cease-fire," huh?

What? Did hikaru tell you something?

Did you do something she shouldn't tell me about?

Maybe you even kissed her.

Hikaru looked so happy. Nice going.

Now wait just a minute!

It's all right. It doesn't matter to me.

But you're wrong! We didn't do anything!

It!!!

Hey! You in the back row!

You should've settled all your relationship problems last year!

A-Ayukawa?

Would you like some fries with that?

Uh, sure. One order of fries, then.

Thank you very much! Just a minute, please.

Good afternoon! I can help you over here!

Darling, over here!

Oh yeah, darling.

Do you like this color?

Uh, yeah. I like it.

Really? That's great!

I'll knit you a scarf with this then.

Soon it'll get colder, and you can't afford to catch cold, can you?

I've already decided on the design.

Let's see, it goes like this, and this part is like this, and...

Huh? How did this part go in madoka's book?

- Ayukawa's...? - Don't you know? Madoka is really into knitting.

She's got tons of design books!

Oh... 7

you know the festival's coming up, right?

Madoka always starts knitting something around this time of year.

Yeah! Can we go to the festival together, darling?

- What? - Geez, you're not listening, are you?

.I'I “

we all went together last year, remember?

Yeah, but...

Ah, you can't, can you? You don't have the time, do you?

I've said something really stupid again! Stupid! Stupid!

It's okay. Please don't worry about it.

We can always go to the festival together next year, after all!

So anyway, how's the play going?

., , lu j”, j,

but I sure wish this was downtown new York, like the setting of the play...

Huh? What do you mean?

Because over there, even in places like this, it's all right to... you know!

Did it reach you, darling?

I'm certainly impressed. You're doing pretty well on your own, madoka.

I suppose so. It's cleaner than when you were around, isn't it, sis?

Yeah, right...

Anyway...

Is that everything mom wanted me to send to her?

Yeah, I packed all of it.
