Mr. Unlucky Has No Choice but to Kiss! (Fukou-kun wa Kiss Suru Shikanai! / 幸くんはキスするしかない!)

Wow, the weather is so nice.

My name is Kota Fukuhara.

I'm a junior in college.

Just like my name implies,

I'm surrounded by lots of happiness every day.

I was born on Strawberry Day, January 5th.

I love strawberry crepes.

I hate bugs and green peppers.

My hobby is exercising,

and I get along with people easily.

I'm looking for love.

I want someone kind and honest.

Or I guess you could say my type is whoever I fall in love with.

Good.

Underclassmen and upperclassmen have different campuses at my school.

So today is my first day at a new campus!

I'm sure I'll meet some great friends

and each day will be more and more rewarding.

After all, just like my name implies...

Look, he stepped in dog poop!

Poop, poop, poop! - Don't stare. It's rude.

I'm Kota Fukuhara, a ball of good luck and happiness.

Yeah, as if!

Dropping the sweet act, here's my actual introduction.

It's true I was born on Strawberry Day,

but I'm always the one who gets the bug-infested strawberry.

And...

So sour!

I love beer and fried dumplings.

But even though it's my favorite,

I can't let my guard down.

What I hate is...

kids that always cry,

You're not bleeding.

and train delays.

Oh, shit.

My dream is to earn a passive income of 500 million yen.

My ideal type is someone with a nice face.

Your name doesn't change anything.

What the hell?

Stink! What is this?

Contrary to my name,

I've always had unnatural, unreasonable showers of bad luck.

And I've finally come to this conclusion.

I'm just meant to be unlucky.

To prevent my bad luck from spreading,

I don't get close to people.

I act how people expect me to

and pretend to be normal.

That's why I've never gotten close to anyone before.

What happened to you, Fukuhara?

You're drenched.

Oh, this? Don't worry.

It'll dry up soon.

What a breath of fresh air!

Professor Kawahara's psychology class is that way, right?

Yeah. - Thanks.

Have you ever asked anyone out before, Shinomiya?

No, I haven't.

Seriously? Have you ever whispered "I love you"

in someone's ear? - That would be sweet.

Try it on me.

Try it on me, too.

Psychology. At its core, it's the study of the heart.

In that case, how do we define "heart"?

Well...

It's a person's consciousness

as well as their subconscious. Consciousness is...

Professor Kawahara makes no sense, as usual.

I know, right?

Hey, Miki, I love your bracelet.

This? It's beautiful, right?

These rose quartz stones are for luck with romance.

I'm a junior now,

so I bought them from Lord Kirari to find a boyfriend.

Lord Kirari?

He's famous in the spiritual community.

200,000 followers.

This bracelet was purified by Lord Kirari, too.

Amazing, right?

Kirari's "Another Happy Day, Sparkling Kirari!"

Here's the secret of living a happy life surrounded by this sparkling aura.

Calling himself Kirari is amazing in itself.

What? You think so?

Hey, do you smell something?

That smell is probably...

No, it's definitely me.

That bucket of water earlier.

So gross.

So smelly. - My shoe.

I made this refreshing, clean image to hide my bad luck, but if I lose that,

what will I do?

I hope she comes. - Yeah?

It'd be nice to have a girl there.

Yeah, I know. Right?

Fukuhara, hey there.

You know where tonight's welcome party is, right?

Oh, Izayoi. Right?

I'm going home to change first.

Oh, okay. - Yeah, see you.

See you there. - See you.

Bye. - See you.

What a refreshing guy.

Yeah.

But did you smell that?

You're imagining things.

Hold on. - Naoya and everyone.

What are you doing until the party?

We're getting some tea. Want to come? Right? - Yeah.

I have plans.

It's at Izayoi, right? - Yeah.

See you there. - What?

Okay. - Bye.

See you. - What? Okay.

That's a shame.

But he's so cool.

What? Don't tell me, Miki.

You want a guy at that level?

Huh? Yeah.

It's fine. I have this with me.

What?

Ugh, a party? What a drag!

Well, it'll be fine if I just make some small talk and bounce.

After all, I...

Watch out! - What?

Whoa!

I... I almost died.

Are you okay? - Ah!

I... I'm fine.

The guy with a nice face.

Good to hear.

Hurt anywhere? I pulled you pretty hard.

No, I'm okay.

Well, thank you.

Wait, your hand. - Oh, this?

I'm really sorry. I can pay or help treat it.

It's no big deal. - But...

It only grazed me. It's more important that you're okay.

What's with this attractive guy?

Do people who say that really exist?

At least let me thank you...

Oh, sorry.

Senior? Please stop calling me.

I know.

Izakoi, right?

Okay, see you later.

Wait! Are you...

Nice to meet you all.

Juniors, welcome to the Kawahara Seminar.

A word from Professor Kawahara.

Great! - Professor!

The study of psychology,

as I said in class today,

is about learning the heart. - Professor.

Yeah? - It's a welcome party, so don't do that.

Oh, right. - Let's make a toast.

Okay, welcome to the Kawahara Seminar. Cheers.

Cheers!

Seniors, please give us your guidance.

Let's eat. - Let's eat. Let's dig in.

Dig in, guys. - Can I get that for you?

Thanks, Professor.

Oh, boy.

Naoya. Kota. Thanks for joining our seminar.

I got you a cocktail. Is that okay?

Of course. I love cocktails.

That's great.

You look like a cocktail kind of guy.

Oh, you could tell?

I like beer and shochu, you damn idiot.

And what's more...

Those hyenas obviously want my seat,

so they can sit next to Naoya.

But, Naoya, you sure haven't changed.

"Haven't changed"?

You see, I failed German last year,

so I was in his class at the other campus last year.

And the girls I liked were all head over heels for him.

I didn't do anything.

Yeah, I know that.

You super lucky guy.

Super lucky?

Yeah. This guy's overflowing with good luck.

He always wins a good prize in a lottery,

and he can always buy rare tickets.

What?

And vending machines always give him extras.

When I buy vending machine drinks,

extras are the least of my worries.

I don't even get the drink I paid for.

What?

Anyway, whenever he's involved, everything always goes well.

It's just a coincidence.

I'm so jealous.

I'm so envious.

A super lucky guy? What the hell?

Attention, please!

As per seminar tradition,

it's time for the introduction game! You gotta hit exactly one minute!

Seriously?
