Gift: Eternal Rainbow

Why...

Why do you have to go?

I don't want you to go!

Don't go...

Let's stay together forever!

I...

...wanted to be with you forever as well.

Forever.

So...

Riko!

Farewell.

Farewell...

Wake up! Hyper chop!

Wake up! Hyper chop!

Open your eyes! Hyper kick!

I like a hot-blooded youth like you!

Good morning, Haruhiko-kun.

Good morning.

W-Who the heck are you!?

W-Who am I? I'm Kirino.

Your childhood friend. Did you forget what I look like?

W-What is it?

Question 1. What are Kirino's hobbies?

Playing the piano?

Don't ask me. Well then, question 2.

What are Kirino's parents' occupations?

They run an... inn?

I told you not to ask me!

But...!

Question 3. Kirino's most embarrassing secret is that she didn't need a bra until her second year of junior high.

True or false?

I-I've been wearing one since fifth grade!

Is that so?

Geez.

I had to do that. I seriously didn't know it was you for a moment.

What's up with that uniform?

Hot-blooded

Does it suit me?

What I'd like to ask is why you're wearing our school uniform.

Today's the entrance ceremony.

Oh, right.

Did you forget?

It just slipped my mind.

I came here especially to let you be the first one to see it.

Me?

H-Hey, do you think it looks cute?

Don't come over here just to ask something pompous like that!

Stop knuckling my head!

Then don't ask me stupid questions first thing in the morning!

What?

Nothing.

Kirino?

I don't know about cute, but...

It suits you.

Thanks! I'll go make some breakfast!

Good morning, mom.

It's another sunny day.

tomodachi ni mo ienakatta

These feelings that I couldn't even tell my friends about

omoi wo tojikometa mama no

are still locked up inside me even now

kokoro no naka mahou no furuutsu

If I eat the fruit inside my heart

tabereba tsutawaru nante ne

they might actually be able to come out

kyoushitsu de matteita mon mada

The question that awaited me in the classroom

guuzen no toi wo keshiteru

was erasing any unexpected questions from coming up

sono egao wa tabun dareka no mono

That smile is probably meant for someone

yume ga watashi no negai wo kanaeru nara

If dreams can make my wish come true

sotto agetai puresento yo

I want to give you this present

anata no niji shiawase ni todoku

Bringing happiness towards your rainbow

hashikko kaeru wa te wo futte ne

Be sure to wave when you're back on the ground

ii no ii no

It's all right, it's all right

mitsumeteitai dake nano

I simply want to watch over you

The Rainbow Town

An omelet with two eggs?

Yep, two. I'd like a turn-over today.

Turn-over?

You flip them over like this.

Umm, I've never done a turn-over before...

It's good experience.

I'm acting kinda spoiled to someone who makes breakfast for me every morning, aren't I?

Not at all. I'll do my best!

Go for it!

When the white of the egg has hardened, flip it over.

Morning.

Morning, dad.

Good morning!

Thanks for taking care of us again, Kirino-chan.

I'll fry your egg in a bit, sir!

Sorry, I'm in a hurry today.

Even though it's a small company, it's expected you'd get busy after becoming the manager.

I guess so.

Oh, right! Today...

Hello, this is Amami.

I'm terribly sorry! I'll be right over.

I'm off!

Hey, dad!

What's up with him, running off in the middle of a sentence.

That's just like him.

Haruhiko-kun, it's burning!

What do I do!? Water. Water!

The turn-over failed, huh.

Sorry it was burnt black...

It's all right. Anyway, go grab your bag, we'll be late!

Okay, hold on!

Someone used Gift again...

Clear the road, clear the road!

Hey, let me off! Let me off!

Don't look, don't look!

Idiot! I'll fall, I'll fall!

Haruhiko-kun!

Haruhiko-kun!

Where are you?

Ouch...

Are you okay?

S-Somehow...

Hey, where did this cushion come from?

Anything can happen in this town.

The people here in Narasaki are bestowed with a mysterious ability.

A receiver and a giver.

When the hearts of those two people come together, they are able to use this ability once.

Gift. The power to make a miracle happen once in a lifetime.

It's a kind of magic that only the people in this town can use.

No one knows when and why this power was born.

even so, the townspeople embraced the Gift and treasured it as their once in a lifetime present to their loved ones.

Just like the everlasting rainbow hanging in the sky over town.

I'm glad we can walk to the same school together again.

Is it really something to be that glad about?

Don't you feel that way?

Not really. I don't mind either way.

I was lonely.

You went to high school before I did.

We still met up everyday, didn't we?

But our schools were different.

It was only for a year. We'll be going to the same school again from now, so who cares?

Yeah, that's right!

By the way, are you planning to keep wearing that hat during class as well?

Yes, I am. Does it look funny?

More like it suits you too well.

If you stand out like this as first year student, people will stare at you.

Really? I'm not trying to stand out at all...

I'm the only one that knows you're shy, if someone else sees you...

Hey, missy!

That uniform looks great on you.

Just skip class and hang out with us.

...that might happen.

Y-You have to help her!

Do you think I'm some kind of superhero of justice?

They aren't even from our school. I'm not looking for trouble.

Hey, come on!

Ow, ow, ow!

You bitch!

M-Mama...

You stupid bitch!

Step aside.

Amazing. She didn't need any help at all.

But if it were me, if you hadn't been by my side...

Me?

You would've protected me, wouldn't you?

O-Of course!

Geez, you're hopeless.

Shimano Academy Entrance Ceremony

Amazing.

What happened here?

This is troublesome...

Huh? What's going on?

Chisa-pon!

Kirino!

Is something the matter?

N-No, nothing at all!

This is my best friend, Fujimiya Chisa.

We were classmates last year.

What's up?

N-Nice to meet you...

You're...

This little one's name is Jinta.

Haven't I seen you somewhere before?

You can find these kinds of birds anywhere!

More importantly, there's been some trouble.

Did something happen?

Yeah. Come and look!

Look, over there.

The heck is this!?

Why did this happen?
