First Love - First Season

YAE NOGUCHI KEISEI TRANSPORTATION

Someone once said...

life is like a jigsaw puzzle.

From our best memories

to our most horrible experiences that make us want to curse at our destiny...

These are all unique pieces of our lives.

A ticket that was lost,

a dress worn in December.

Thank you.

A stain from an ink called "Blue Hour."

A romantic moment on the beach in the winter.

A Mars orbiter mission that has your name.

A pop star that's the same age as you.

Dreams that never came true.

Love stories that ended.

People who drifted away from you.

What about those big mistakes?

Are they also part of the picture?

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.

Welcome on board Norn Airlines flight 627

to Reykjavik, Iceland.

You're on Norn Airlines flight 627.

I'll be your flight attendant today.

Yae, how are you?

Hey, I'm good. Thank you.

- Have a nice day. - You, too. Thanks.

I'll be your flight attendant today.

My name is Yae Noguchi.

According to forecasts,

we should have nice weather for most of our flight.

But please keep your seat belts fastened while seated

as we may still be experiencing some sudden rough air or turbulences.

Your attention, please.

Please get to Mr. Okada at the entrance of Tanukikoji 3-chome.

232, copy that.

What would my life be like now...

if I had never met you?

Yae! Good morning!

Good morning.

- Are you ready? - This is gonna be hot.

- Crap. He's here. - That's not okay.

You'll get a warning for that.

- All right? - Just act normal.

Hey! You two girls, come here.

Gosh. Really?

Come on, hurry up. Your knees are showing, alright?

- What? - Cover them immediately!

Don't show your knees.

Hey!

Namiki! Stop!

Namiki!

Stop! Namiki!

Stop, you little...

Thank God!

Well, thank you.

Obuchi asked me to help you.

Your name is Namiki, right?

I think you and I already met before somewhere.

Oh, I know where.

At Seicomart, and you just spilled the bottle there that day.

Sorry, it wasn't me.

Thank you.

See you.

Oh.

Oh, Noguchi. Thanks a lot.

Did you carry that on your own?

I didn't. Namiki did, sir.

Oh. I see.

Sometimes he surprises me nice.

Weren't you the one who asked him to do so?

What? Me?

Hm?

What are you saying?

- Nothing. - Huh.

A...

Which means that B equals R.

We now know where A and B are located on the x-axis,

so let's place them on a graph.

A and B, like that.

Kosaka?

Yes?

Your exam is soon. You got to stay focused.

- I'm sorry. - Hm.

A-H is perpendicular to the x-axis, therefore...

So that girl I met the other day.

- The one you met on that app? - Right.

Well, she just turned 28 and woks in a call center.

That woman spends her days dealing with customers complaining on the phone

and all she can do is agree and say, "You're absolutely right."

Do you know how to hook up with a girl like that?

Mirroring, kid. All right?

Customers and women desperately want some empathy.

What do you mean by that?

Dude. I'm exhausted, honestly. I had a nasty client.

Damn, I'm sorry. That's too bad.

- I need some wine right now. - Man.

- A bottle for the two of us? - Right.

When you're having drinks with a girl, if she grabs her glass,

you do that, too, and put it back in the table

right when she does.

That'll give her an intuitive sense of security.

And she'll be on top of you within 30 minutes, trust me.

How are you doing, guys?

Exhausted.

And you know what? This technique

actually does wonders with girls in their thirties who are so over the dating game.

Huh?

Oh, you've worked later than usual today.

I did.

I was expecting to get more clients thanks to the rain.

Oh. It makes sense, totally.

But I got two long rides during peak hours, so I was lucky, I guess.

Ah. Yeah, lucky you. That's great.

Look at us. We're in sync.

It's the mirror-something trick, isn't it? Mr. Togashi told me about it.

That's an easy one.

Um...

How about you and I go grab dinner?

That'll be on me since today is payday.

Sorry, I already have plans.

Ah.

I did-I didn't...

I swear that was a coincidence.

It wasn't on purpose.

No. No, no, no.

I'm home.

Welcome home.

To those waking up or going to bed, good morning!

Good morning.

It's 5 a.m., Saturday, June 16th.

It's rather overcast in Sapporo today.

Yes, the temperatures are low, and it feels quite chilly.

On our cultural section today,

Inti Raymi, one of the three major festivals in South America,

will be held next week.

The Inti Raymi is a festival that will be held on the 24th this month at Cusco.

Inti Raymi.

An important ceremony held since the days of the Inca Empire

to honor the sun god.

Cusco.

In Quechua, Inti means sun and Raymi means festival.

Cusco...

Cusco's so far.

...and pray for fertility.

- Since 1944, - Inti Raymi.

the festival has become more modernized.

but in the Inca Empire, it was the one time...

Inti Raymi looks awesome.

...gathering people from all over the empire.

PLEASE ENTER DEPOSIT AMOUNT

TRANSACTION HISTORY TO YUKIHITO KOSAKA

- Um... - Yes?

Ah.

Okay, got it.

Okay. I'll send it tomorrow.

Okay. Bye.

Those are Mr. Kota's, aren't they?

- I'll give them to him tomorrow. - Abiko won't be coming again.

He's busy with training, so I arranged for a much better tutor.

What? He didn't tell me.

I heard that you didn't do that well on your mid-terms, right?

This new tutor is a med student at Hokkaido University,

so he should be able to teach you more practical strategies.

Tsuzuru.

You can have your fun.

But keep it to a minimum.

Okay.

Namiki!

Hey!

Namiki's a little scary, but he's hot, right?

- Oh, totally! - Right?

I had my eye on him.

- You think he has a girlfriend? - Don't say that!

Oh, I see that look on your face. You want to tell me about it?

It's nothing.

No way that's nothing! You got to tell me, girl!

Mr. Namiki.

Mr. Namiki.

Mr. Namiki.

Mr. Namiki.

You okay?

Didn't you say you had plans today?

Oh, crap!

Kosshi, take care of the rest.

Sorry.

Please.

Thank you so much.

- You okay? Huh? - Thank you very much.

Sorry.

Hello.

Park Hotel, please.

Right away.

Oh.

Excuse me, sir. How's the Fighter's inter-league game?

It's the top of the third, and they're beating the Carps by two.

Ah. I see.

I'm sorry.

No.

Well, the person I'm about to meet over lunch

is a big Carps fan, you know?
