Hey, Taka.

So you won another art award?

I didn't know you were coming, Uncle!

Yeah well, I didn't want to get in trouble for not visiting my folks on New Year's.

You've even got a cabinet minister's name on this one.

I guess you're gonna grow up to be an artist or a designer, huh?

Uncle never said “mangaka”.

A blue bird flying through a blue sky

Can you see that bird?

Happiness is always, feeling invisible colors

I look up at a spring sky, full of nothing but worries

and hang my head

but I'm looking up again

I decided I would find them in this town

and hold close to my chest the things I must not lose

A blue bird flying through a blue sky

Can you see that bird?

Happiness is always, feeling invisible colors

Dream and Reality

Moritaka! Time to get up!

You'll be late for school.

Moritaka!

In the third year of middle school, the last year of compulsory education,

adults are always asking us what our dreams are for the future.

As for me, Mashiro Moritaka, I answer:

“I don't know.”

“I still haven't decided.”

It's considered normal to move onto a better high school, to the best possible university,

and then on to the best company possible.

Yeah, just live life normally.

Tanikusa City Akehi Middle School

That's why even though I find it easier to keep myself busy with games and computer stuff at home,

but I still go to school every day.

I don't want to cause problems for my parents.

I don't want to be called a recluse.

I don't want to be called a “permanent part-timer”.

That's why I'll take the normal route into society, and become a salaryman.

National Book Report Contest

Results Announced!!

Congratulations to Takagi Akito-kun!

The ones who'll jump to the top at those places

are the ones who're getting good grades now and have a high rank.

The rankings are already fixed, so the future will be nothing more than an extension of the present.

A boring future.

Life is tiresome.

That is my outlook on life, having lived these last 14 years as a good kid should.

There was something in a book I just read,

that the greatest event, the highest purpose of life, is love.

Who am I kidding?

That's some crap said by a womanizing adult.

For me, who can't even talk to the girl he likes,

love is just sad and painful.

Fruitless love...

that will cast me into the abyss once again.

Please work hard for your mid-terms tomorrow.

Thank you very much!

Saikou, let's go home.

Y–Yeah...

Saikou! Suzuki!

Let's get outta here.

Here.

Oh, thanks.

Tests start tomorrow huh?

Who cares?

We can head home early.

Well, let's just use that time well.

Yeah.

Miho.

Let's go home together.

Sure.

I'm lonely without you in my class!

Knock it off, Kaya!

Let's go have some fun!

Saikou!

Let's see...

What should we do?

Want to see a movie?

Ah! That hot one?

Yeah, that one.

Sounds good.

What about you Saikou?

I don't want to wind up in the bottom half of the ranking board.

I'm going to study.

See ya.

Saikou! He's no fun.

Huh?

My math notebook...

I can study without my notes,

but I don't want to leave them at school.

Takagi Akito...

What are you up to?

Shouldn't you be studying to protect your number one spot?

My notebook!

Did he find out I have a crush on Azuki?!

Don't make such a serious face.

This isn't the Death Note.

Why do you have your hands on my notes?

Because I sit all the way in the back.

I saw you drawing something in this notebook during class.

And I knew that you'd come back for it.

Sorry, but I took the liberty of looking inside.

I was sure you'd come back for this.

So, I was waiting for you.

What the hell is he planning?

Anyway these are good, Azuki Miho.

She's quiet, so she doesn't stand out, but she's top class for this school.

Does Takagi have a thing for her too?

I think Azuki probably has a crush on you, too.

Huh?

N–No way!

We haven't even talked yet, and first of all what makes you think that?

Didn't I explain that to you?

I sit all the way in the back.
