Sing, Salmon Sing! (うた魂♪)

Everyone, how do I look to you when I'm singing?

You must see me as a brilliant, talented beauty,

and be full of admiration!

I love my singing self!

Wonder if she's OK?

Maybe from the heat?

And I love Makimura about as much as my singing self!

Kasumi, what are you listening to?

Western music.

Untrue. I'm listening to my recorded singing.

Why are you smirking?

Thinking about Makimura?

What's that mean?!

I was not!

You were so!

I was not.

I wasn't!

I didn't say anything.

Look, he's sending some hot glances.

Makimura!

My, my, my! Great, must be mutual love?

It's not like that...

They can tell by looking at us how we feel!

That we've suddenly become closer.

At school they say he and I go well together.

He's Student Council head,

serious but artsy, his hobby is photography.

I am so attractive, and the best singer in the choir!

We are both full of gifts from God!

What's with the smile?! Hey!

Are you OK? Got a fever?

Not coming yet!

Not coming yet!

Not coming yet!

Not coming yet!

Exactly what time is it?

What's the number for time?

It's 08:05. Bus is five minutes late.

Hata-saka-ue

Mizoguchi, you bastard!

Not 'punctual' again today!

Mizoguchi

Oh no! It's Gondo from Yunokawa Academy!

Mizoguchi, you know what's wrong!

Next stop, Hata-saka-ue. Hata-saka-ue.

Circumstances require passing this stop!

Mizoguchi!

It can't be?! Lucky!

Not only late, but you refuse passengers too?!

Why can't you...

do your assigned job 'spiritually'?!

Show us your 'spirit'!

I'm sorry! I'll be 'spiritual' from tomorrow!

It's 'callous' to step on a shoe heel.

The heel will cry!

'Callus'?

What about 'calluses'?!

Hey, Kasumi!

Ogino-san!

Sorry about that!

Let's meet on the roof after clubs today?

After school? The roof?

I'd like to talk.

OK, fine.

Yeah? See you.

Hey, what's that about?

Meeting on the roof after school can mean only one thing!

Your nose is bleeding!

Are you OK?

You OK?

Kaede, the right side too!

Makimura's going to confess!

That must be it!

What must be?

Kaede! Mizuki! I feel like singing!

Sing, Salmon, Sing!

Returning upstream,

the female uses her last strength to lay eggs.

To protect her own laying site,

the female drives off other females like this.

This shows salmon egg deposition.

Teacher, the salmon faces look gross!

Hey, don't say it's gross!

This is perfectly natural for salmon.

As females, you'll produce eggs also.

Sexual harassment!

Harassment?! Excuse me!

From today I'm the new club head, Kaede Matsumoto.

I'm part leader, Mizuki Nomura.

Our seniors quit to study, this will be our first practice.

Let's put our all into it!

Yes!

Voice from top of your head!

More volume!

Ogino-san!

We'd like to ask something...

You'll be fine. You should just sing like me.

But...

Oh no! I'm 20 minutes late because of practice!

What are you doing?

So...

Talk... about what?

Ogino-san...

Here it comes!

I...

Be calm! Be calm!

Don't lose control.

What will I do? I may seem cheap if I quickly say OK.

Maybe play hard to get?

I want to photograph you.

No confession?!

Photos are my hobby, but I'm just a beginner.

You mean it's OK?

OK.

Thanks.

You don't mean in a swimsuit?!

You're too self-conscious!

Just joking.

Hokkaido choral contest send-off is tomorrow?

I've always wanted to photograph you singing.

Me singing?!

Bye.

Me singing is...

a beautiful thing.

A hymn to beauty.

Expression of love to me.

That's great!

I thought so, he really does love me!

It's really special.

I've always been popular,

but it's the first confession from the boy of my dreams.

What's wrong with her?

Maybe she likes a boy?

You think so?!

Grandpa, don't wander around with that!

It's dangerous!

The axe!

Dear, do you know who he is?

Who knows?

Why do you avoid my question?

Grandpa! When did you come here?!

Pheromone activity.

What?!

Shh! Silence is golden!

Whoever gossips to you, gossips about you.

Not what it means...

Kasumi, no matter what happens,

I'll be on your side.

Don't forget that.

What?! About what?

Ogino-san, morning!

Morning.

Isn't she a bit much lately?

She's full of herself.

Rena's a better match for him.

Both on Student Council... Perfect.

Ogino's only good at flirting with boys.

I really hate her.

It's blurry. You have to focus!

This is to focus, this is the zoom.

Elbows in.

They say, "As the moth flies into the flame,"

and summer truly is a season of temptation.

The pleasures of night, desire, and of water.

Please use great caution and avoid these alluring traps.

Summer holidays begin tomorrow,

so please ensure that you return safely for second term,

by living your lives properly.

Next, a report from your teacher, Senuma.

Who's that?

A substitute teacher since last month.

Seems to be out of it.

Hello students. I'm Yuko Senuma.

The hot sun again today is tough for me to bear...

Are you alright?

Oh! Suddenly dizzy...

Well, I'm just a substitute for a teacher on maternity leave.

But those in the choir club...

aspiring to take part in the national contest,

with the Hokkaido preliminary in one month,

are working hard, it seems.

Advisor, but not committed?

I'm a woman who's not good with a baton,

but everyone please support the choir club.

Since today is the send-off event for the choir club,

we want to hear their lovely voices.

Tumbles over the root of the tree

Always waiting, always waiting

Working hard one day in the field

Bunny rabbit bouncing along

Tumbles over the root of the tree

Bump into the root, bunny rabbit

Always waiting, always waiting

Lucky, I'll just lie...

They're amazing.

Made the national finals two years ago...

Even TV will come today!

Very nice stump and Root of the tree

Root of tree, root of tree...
