I slept in!

It's getting some incredible hype.

Tourism economy booming in city where popular anime Galtan is set

Galtan's economic effects on the town of Oarai

It's having an amazing effect on the economy.

Morning!

Morning, Minoa.

Jeez, why didn't anyone wake me up?

I did.

And you were like...

"Asagaya Minoa is now awake, sir!"

"Ready for action, sir!"

Was I?

It's what always happens, though.

Why didn't you wake me up again, then?

You're taking it pretty easy today.

We don't have morning practice today.

What about you, Mii-chan?

Aren't you going to join a club or anything?

Not really.

I'm not like Onee-chan. I'm not athletic or anything.

What about an arts club?

An arts club?

It's okay, Mii-chan.

You've been the type to play inside your room rather than outside, even as a kid.

Onee-chan, did I watch anime when I was little?

I think you did.

Haritaro and Dezumon and all that.

I watched PreFae with you.

Thanks for the meal.

PreFae, huh?

That's not it.

I'm leaving.

Minoa, let's go to the station together.

I'm going to be late.

Morning.

Erika! Give me a ride!

Nope. Double riding is illegal.

Go Sakaneko!

Go! Go!

Morning.

Morning.

Morning, Minocchi.

Morning, Kouenji-san.

Good morning.

What are you reading?

That's a title?

"A Certain..."

A Report on the Irresponsible and Depressing Chronicles

of Me and a Certain Eccentric Childhood Friend.

Th-That sounds complicated.

It's not complicated.

It's about a pathologically tardy protagonist

and their time-wasting childhood friend.

O-Oh, yeah?

M-Morning.

Good day.

Sh-She's so cute.

I love the way she's just slightly condescending.

Morning, Kamiigusa-san.

Good day.

Morning, Minoa.

Morning.

Something about Kamiigusa-san?

Nah, she just seems so flawless, I don't know how to approach her.

From what I've heard, she's...

Sebas!

Well done.

She's really well-to-do.

Yeah, I totally get that.

I saw your morning practice.

I can't improve my time.

Hey, what made you decide to join the track club?

I saw a broadcast of the Olympics when I was in elementary school.

I was awed by the female athletes.

I wanted to be able to run like them.

You were moved as a child, huh?

Don't you have anything like that, Minoa?

Do you watch anime, Yui-chan?

Anime?

Not really, I guess.

Yeah?

Was there an anime that moved you as a kid?

Not so much moved, but there's one that I'm curious about.

What's it called?

That's the thing. I don't know.

There's the bell.

Morning, everyone.

Good morning.

Well, it's been almost a month since the entrance ceremony.

Are you enjoying high school life?

Oh my, you're so quiet.

I'm feeling lonely.

Roppongi-sensei's so colorful.

He's like that at track practice, too.

Phone call for Gomon-sensei.

Please come to the staff office.

You're buying bread on top of your bento box?

You burn up a lot of calories when you're in track.

Oh yeah, my sister eats a lot, too.

Asagaya-san...

Yes?

K-Kamiigusa-san!

Her aura's amazing, even during lunch break...

May I have a word with you?

Yes.

I need to talk to you.

Would you kindly spare me some time after school?

Talk?

I'll be waiting at the art room show hall.

I ask you to come alone.

Um...

What are we...

Understood?

What are we talking about?

I'll see you there.

Did she get called out?

Does she have her eye on her?

Did I do something wrong?

D-Dunno...

Verb usage

There's a 70% chance this is going to be on the exam,

depending on my mood that day.

That's it for homeroom.

The budgeting committee meeting will be beginning at 4 PM today.

Class committee, could you give me a hand?

All club presidents, please assemble at the student committee office.

Want me to come with you?

It's okay, you should go to your club.

But...

She asked me to come by myself.

You dropped something.

Watch it!

You must be careful about touching that grimoire.

Grimoire?

Abracadabra, pasta la vista!

It's safe to touch now.

I set up a barrier.

R-Right.

Danke schön.

Danke?

People don't really come here.

That's why I called you here.

I'm glad you came.

Um...

What did you want to talk to me about?

Answer my questions honestly.

Understood?

Minoa, Anime Rookie!

Asagaya Minoa-san...

Y-Yes?

Do you like anime?

What?

Do you like anime?

Anime?

You were asking Obata-san this morning if she watches anime.

Oh, yeah...

What are you watching this season?

This season?

I personally like Hero School and R: Zero.

I have big hopes for Shikabari, the original anime, too.

The Time Travel Shounen OP is legit, too.

Jun-nii's stylish fence jump!

Shikabari?

Oh, maybe we don't have any taste overlap.

Are you into slice-of-life, then?

Overlap? What?

This season's kind of lopsided, honestly.

Too many battle anime.

Tamukeda and Toramiko are about the only slice-of-life shows.

Oh, Bakusou?

Nah, that's a bike show pretending to be a slice-of-life show.

Oh, I dabble in delinquent stuff, though.

They're a bit old, but Kyou Kara Sessha Wa!! and Angel Story...

Wait, both are OVAs.

There's a remake boom happening now, though.

I wonder if they're going to make an anime based on Bad Luck or Dancecchimau Yatsu?

Huh?

That's not it, either?

Oh, do you like otome stuff?

Or hardcore robot anime?

You were talking about anime, weren't you?

No, I, uh...

I watched a normal amount of anime as a kid.

Gachiemon and stuff.

Gachiemon!

Nobue? Karashi?

Which movie did you like?
