To Heart

Whoa! They're ruined!

Talk about stupid!

Stop crying already.

Besides, it's your own fault for tripping, right?

You're so clumsy.

But...

Sheesh. We're going to be late.

Hiroyuki-chan...

I haven't used any of my books yet, so you can swap them with mine.

But then, you'll...

I already wrote my name in, so make sure you erase them, okay?

Man, you're just hopeless.

Hiroyuki-chan...

Thank you...

I feel embarrassed that you can practically... Kikoesou na kodou ga

...hear my heart beating hazukashii yo

Why? This isn't like me Doushite watashi-rashiku wa nai yo

Even when today ends, Kyou ga owattemo

even when tomorrow passes by ashita ga sugitemo

We'll always be together Itsumo soba ni ite

The two of us will be forever honest, unchanging Zutto sunao ni kawaranu futari

That's what I want to believe Shinjitai

Ever since that day when I met you Anata to atta ano hi kara

At all times, no matter what happened Donna toki ni demo

I've felt like I could feel everything Subete o kanjirareru ki ga suru

Just by your very presence Tada anata ga iru dake de

Just by being near you Soba ni iru dake de

Forever, you're my only feeling heart

A Brand New Morning

See you later!

Mother, the newspaper's still out here!

Hiroyuki-chan,

you better hurry or we're going to be late.

Come on, Hiroyuki-chan.

Hiroyuki-chan!

Hey, I get it already, so knock it off.

Sheesh. You're hopeless.

We're in high school already. You could drop the "-chan", you know.

And you just had to yell it like that.

Sorry about that. I thought that maybe you couldn't hear me.

Man...

You know, this morning...

I feel so sluggish. You know, this morning...

I feel so sluggish.

Summer break's over, so why's it still so hot?

I guess.

Hey, so what happened this morning?

Nothing.

Oh, okay.

Looks like you two aren't in a hurry today, for once.

Oh, good morning, Masashi-chan.

You mean, "as usual". Not, "for once". Right, Masashi?

It must be rough dealing with him all the time, Akari-chan.

Hmm, just a little.

What kind of thing is that to say?

But if I didn't come, you'd be late to school every day.

You are the one who comes by too early.

I'd make it in time if I just ran.

I don't know about that.

You picking a fight with me?

The new term's just starting and you two already seem to be in fine form.

I always feel a thrill in my heart when I face something new.

Encountering worlds I'd never seen before, people I'd never met before...

As the seasons come and go, one after another,

we grow into adults, little by little.

I think that is a very wonderful thing.

But even I have something I want to cherish without it ever changing.

The person who's been at my side since the time I just dreamed about.

Hiroyuki Fujita.

No matter how many new memories become layered atop another,

I think that Hiroyuki-chan and I...

...will continue to make our way through these times together.

That is what I believe.

That darn principal went on and on and on.

And everything he said was putting me to sleep.

There you go again.

I can't help it if it's the truth.

What it comes down to is that summer break is way too short.

They could let us off until it gets a little cooler.

Hi! You look kind of down!

It's a new school term starting today!

Hiroyuki, you have to head into it brimming with energy, too!

Good morning, Lemmy.

Why are you always so full of energy?

That's because...

...over summer break, I ate a special diet...

...of broiled eel, Japanese vermicelli, cold tofu, and watermelon...

...to replenish my stamina!

Besides, there's that Japanese saying...

"The worst of summer and the worst of winter both end with the equator!"

I think that's "equinox", not "equator"...

Hiroyuki, summer will be over in time!

Let's be energetic!

She's a cheery one.

Hey, how about we all go karaoke together after school today?

You haven't sung your head off in a while, it might get you energized.

Yeah, let's go, Hiroyuki-chan.

That's okay. I'm gonna go home and sleep.

I'm too tired today.

I see...

What?! Change desks?!

That's too much work!

Let's do it tomorrow!

Now, don't be like that.

This is a new term now.

It'll freshen things up a bit.

I'll let you guys discuss it and decide on what to do.

Is this for real?

All right then, Hoshina, I'll leave the rest to you.

Yes, sir.

I hope I get to sit next to Hiroyuki-chan this time.

Well, then, I would like to work on changing our seating arrangement.

Please submit your opinions on what methods you might prefer.

I've been sitting where it's really hot, so I want to sit somewhere cool!

Oh, that goes for me, too!

I don't care as long as I'm not in the front row.

Somewhere I can fall asleep and not be noticed!

Moron!

Won't this take a long time? We can just stay where we are.

You might be fine with that, but I'm not!

I want to be in the back row!

Put girls all around me!

Me, too! Me, too!

If you have an opinion, please raise your hand first.

Then, since no one seems to have any opinions, with fairness in mind,

I would like to draw lots to determine the seating arrangement.

What?! What?!

Draw lots?!

Hey! What are you doing deciding this on your own?!

Drawing lots is just so... You know?

Please make your decision more appropriately!

Yeah, that's right!

Don't just decide on your own!

I don't care what we do, just hurry up and let us go home.

I'm getting hungry on top of being hot.

We'll get to go home once we have our new seats.

And when's that gonna be?

Where would you like to sit, Hiroyuki?

I don't really care where.

By the hallway in the back row, I guess.

Sounds like a spot with a high competition rate.

"High competition rate" is an understatement!

It's super-high, mega-high, stupendously high!

You won't stand out, even if you come into class late,

there's a low risk of being picked by the teacher to answer questions,

and above all else,

the best part is that the late-summer sun won't hit you.

Hey.

Well, I suppose about the only drawback is...

...that when people troop in and out,

some person might end up kicking your chair.

Hey, you.

My! You're addressing this cute Shiho-chan as "hey, you"?

You're in Class A. What the heck are you doing here?!

Oh, my homeroom class let us out already.
