00:00remember how I told you my grandpa runs a workshop he works on all kinds of stuff there but
00:12mainly cars his hobby is making his own custom cars and before you ask no he doesn't race them
00:20on the highway or anything but he does test drive them someplace else I eventually got to
00:27help with them as well my folks got super mad about it when they found out though I wish I could get my
00:33license and start driving for real if I start dating I wanted to be with someone who owns a ton
00:41of awesome cars oh wait people like that are usually on the wrong side of the law or am I being
00:50prejudiced when I say that whatever I'll just buy my own cars all I gotta do is win the lottery first
00:57did you learn any skills when you were younger Takumi I had to learn the piano and lots of other
01:11stuff but I didn't enjoy any of it my parents made me learn so I did that's all weirdly though I've
01:19always been enamored with machines I never liked studying or sports but tinkering with machines
01:29oh even an earthquake couldn't make me stop I guess it just suits me I'm thinking of working at grandpa's
01:36workshop after I graduate from high school I haven't told my parents yet because I just know they'd be
01:43against it I didn't tell any friends either because they'd think I was weird so I guess you're my first
01:52don't tell anyone I told you okay
01:55I have a lot of friends but it's been a little tiring talking to them lately I don't want to sound like an old
02:09woman but all they talk about is anime pop idols and fashion I try to keep up with the latest trends
02:18but I always end up tinkering with some machine instead hours fly by without me noticing and nothing
02:24else goes into my head but I still love hanging out with my friends so I guess I'll have to try not to
02:32stand out too much I'm not forcing myself to fit in okay my friends understand that's just who I am
02:41I tend to get tongue-tied in front of new people though the other day I was dragged along to a mixer
02:47and ruined the mood because I could barely hold a conversation with anyone I've still got a ways to go
02:56before I can even think about dating huh
03:02have you ever thought about what you'll do after we get out of here I have there's a ton of stuff I
03:15want to do eat dessert with my friends sing some karaoke together go shopping go to a hot spring with my
03:23family I mean we deserve a little fun after fighting so hard for mankind right maybe they'll even give
03:31us cars no wait I'll upgrade the equipment at the workshop I'll invent a next generation car that can
03:40move on land through water and in the air then we can fly around and go wherever we want a vehicle like
03:47that should be a piece of cake for artificial satellite technology just thinking about it is making my
03:54heartbeat faster I can't wait to get started oh I'm rambling on about my nation stress again sorry for
04:04making you listen to that
04:14Takumi
04:16do you have a girlfriend sorry
04:19I'm not trying to be weird it's just
04:22I'd like some advice on
04:25how to get a boyfriend some of my friends have started dating guys lately
04:30it never seemed like something I'd want to do but
04:35Now I do feel a little envious of them when they talk about it
04:41Being in love sounds like so much fun
04:44the thing is I
04:46Don't think I could ever have a relationship with someone my own age
04:49I wear clothes that I can move around and comfortably but boys are always giving me lewd looks
04:55Then they approach me thinking I'm easy because of the way I dress
05:00so
05:01I
05:02Definitely go for someone older
05:04Someone who sees beyond that kind of stuff
05:07Someone who'd comfort me when I throw up because of nerves
05:12Oh
05:13And he has to understand machinery
05:16Or better yet
05:18Someone who can tinker with machines with me
05:22But where am I gonna ever find someone like that?
05:26If you know someone you have to introduce us, okay?
05:30If I can't find someone like that though
05:33I guess I can settle for you
05:37Nah, hahaha, just kidding
05:41I still can't believe it
05:53All of my memories were fake
05:57My family
05:59Grandpa's workshop
06:02All of my friends
06:05I won't believe that none of them are real
06:08Maybe they're all actually still there
06:11In the Tokyo residential complex
06:14I hope so anyway
06:16I really hope so
06:21Oh
06:23I'm sorry
06:25You're being concerned about me and all I'm doing is moping
06:30I'm still struggling to sort out my feelings
06:33But sitting around and being gloomy won't solve anything
06:37Thanks for coming to talk to me, Takumi
06:40I feel a little better now
