00:00Another rejection. I've started to lose count. What if no one ever hires me?
00:13I thought I had a plan. How did my life turn out like this?
00:21Congratulations!
00:23Do I know you?
00:24You've been selected as Test Subject 001 for the Kanto branch of the Real Life Laboratory.
00:30Isn't that great? It's so nice to meet you, Chizuru Hishiro.
00:49Chizuru.
00:49With this real life, you have a second chance. Shouldn't you use it to make real connections with your peers?
00:59Of course I should. I know. Despite how it looks, I really am trying. I just don't know if I'm capable.
01:07You have a different place, if you want to take care of yourself.
01:13This is the final place, Chizuru.
01:16Maybe it's not so long.
01:18It's a final place to break down.
01:20Please, Chizuru.
01:22Maybe it's not so long.
01:26But no, you're just a pick.
01:28No, I felt so far
01:33The short-term climb, the summer holidays
01:39The last year after the summer was finished
01:43It was all a gentle day
01:48The next day is no one else
02:24Oh
02:54Whoa, that's quite the sigh are it, huh?
02:56Well the new semester just started and he's already in another makeup loop
03:00Just cuz you're all perceptive doesn't mean you have to tell everybody but compared to last semester your scores have gone up
03:06I bet you'll climb out sooner this time this from mr
03:09Always a silver pin. Thanks for your generic advice
03:13You boys were predictable, but the girls had a shocker
03:17What are you up to huh?
03:20What are you talking about
03:22Reina why don't you go easy on her, okay? I'm sure it's a shock to her, too. Maybe
03:28Maybe she lost to me on purpose
03:32For all I know she botched some answers so kazuomi and I would be class reps together
03:39Don't look at me like it's a crazy idea even if I didn't mind losing you've already made it clear if I ever held back
03:45You'd be furious with me. I value our friendship and wanted to continue so I would never do anything that might endanger that
03:52I
03:53Can't help but observe you get mad whether you win or you lose I know she's impossible, right?
03:58You shut up
04:00Base it we all know you're on a different level than me so me beating you just doesn't add up
04:05I can't be happy with a fluke win
04:07There's that stubborn streak again
04:09I'm not being stubborn
04:11Chizuru wouldn't have let you in anyway since now you don't need a pin to hang out with your man
04:15Don't call him my man!
04:17Don't call him my man!
04:21Seriously though, what happened? Were you feeling sick during the tests or something?
04:25Does it have anything to do with Arata by chance?
04:30I mean I noticed you two were hanging out a lot at the fireworks festival
04:35Was there drama that made it hard to focus?
04:38Hey, that's right! And you were walking around arm-in-arm with Ryo too!
04:41I never saw that coming, I was floored!
04:44Let me guess, were you cozying up to Ryo to make Arata jealous so he'd get off his lazy bum and make a move?
04:49Oh yeah right, as if Chizuru can play mind games like that
05:00You're right Rina, I'm bad at this, I don't know what's happening myself
05:04What's with the woe is me routine? That's not you!
05:08If you can't do something, you work hard to figure it out and don't stop until you do!
05:12You go for the jugular!
05:14If something's holding you back, you attack it head on!
05:17Hey, enough with the YOLO handbook, Rina
05:20She's probably sensitive about this stuff, okay?
05:22Sensitive? Her? She's a freaking robot!
05:25It might seem that way, but she's not
05:28You're confident now that things have worked out
05:32But before you confessed to Kazu, you were pretty woeful yourself
05:38Hey, don't turn it around on me, I'm trying to help you!
05:41I know
05:43Thanks for the advice
05:45Feels easier to make sense of it now
05:55It's true
05:57I've never hesitated to clear things up before
06:00But now I can't go directly to the source
06:03What's up?
06:04What did you want to talk to me about?
06:07I know it's sudden, sorry for that
06:09Don't be, it's okay
06:11Just tell me
06:12It must be big if it couldn't wait
06:15Ryo, I want to ask you a strange question
06:18Is Arata Kaizuki actually a real life subject as well?
06:34Is he an adult like me, struggling to make it in life?
06:38Is he a neat?
06:39May I ask what makes you think that?
06:41There's a mature quality to how he acts
06:44At least sometimes there is
06:46On the surface he also has a mini disc player in his apartment
06:50And he has a smoking habit
06:52For a high schooler he's shockingly bad at studying and PE
06:56I can go on if you like
06:58Well as entertaining as this roast of him is
07:00I can neither confirm nor deny it
07:02Hypothetically speaking, if Arata was a subject
07:05You figuring that out would stain the experiment
07:07So hypothetically if I reported it then his real life would end
07:11He would be removed and you would never see him again
07:13Is that what you would want?
07:15Huh?
07:21On a more general level I'm surprised
07:24In the past you never showed much interest in those around you
07:27But you've clearly spent a good deal of time observing and thinking about him
07:31You've changed quite a lot
07:34You're smiling more too
07:35I've been watching as you gradually made real progress since the second year of your experiment began
07:41Which is the goal of any handler
07:44And as this test is finally bearing fruit I would have loved to support you all the way to the end
07:49But for this term we're handing you off to somebody else
07:53Huh?
07:55Me!
07:57Ta-da!
07:58Hate a lot today
07:59To introduce
08:02Ononaya you're transfer girl with the braids and glasses support staff
08:08Fun right?
08:10I said Fun
08:12Right?
08:13Let's try this again.
08:18On Oniya, your new handler from the lab support division.
08:23Technically, she's been lab staffed for some time,
08:26though I want to make clear she's below me and still will be,
08:28even though she's taking over this assignment.
08:31Why would the lab be making a staff change now?
08:35I would have understood at the start of the year.
08:37Did something unusual happen?
08:40With you, it's all unusual.
08:41Well, we've never had a second-year test subject before.
08:45I was training at another school last year that's different from Alba,
08:48so I wasn't ready to take over when your relife was extended.
08:51So I spent the first term as a transition period
08:53to get used to the place before having full support responsibilities.
08:57And we thought if you knew you had two observers in your class,
09:00it might put undue pressure on you at the start of the year.
09:03Which is why we kept on a secret until now.
09:05So does this mean you'll be leaving my class, Ryo?
09:08No. I won't be your handler anymore, but I'll still be in class to observe.
09:13Apparently, the labs decided that taking me out in the middle of the year
09:16would be too messy a process.
09:18That's interesting.
09:20You're telling me the relife lab was planning this transfer all along?
09:23That's right.
09:24And you're leaving, except you're not leaving.
09:26That's right.
09:27And the less experienced braids and glasses girl is taking over.
09:31That's right.
09:31The name's on.
09:32Because this way you can stay in class and focus exclusively on Arata instead.
09:37That...
09:37I thought I could trick you into admitting it, but I should have known better.
09:44You're a tough nut to crack.
09:46I have no idea what you're talking about.
09:51Okay, this got really awkward really quick.
09:54Can I go home now?
09:55You can understand where I'm coming from, being that what I've noticed doesn't make sense
10:00would make sense if Arata were a test subject.
10:03Yes, I can see that it would if it were, but if it were, I couldn't say.
10:07It seems to me that if he weren't one, you'd say so.
10:10Okay, he's not a...
10:11Now I can't believe you.
10:13Well, I guess we're at an impasse.
10:17So, why do you want to know so badly if Arata's a test subject?
10:21Just curiosity?
10:23Or is it something more?
10:25And what do you mean by that?
10:28Well, if he were part of our experiments...
10:31If he'd been given a real life...
10:34He wouldn't be a kid in high school.
10:37And you wouldn't have to suppress any feelings you might have for him.
10:41Is it possible you suspect he's a subject because you want it to be true?
10:47What are you telling me?
10:49That Arata isn't a test subject?
10:52That he's really a high school kid?
10:54That I could think and have those feelings about a teenager who's 11 years younger than me?
11:06Do I even want to ask what they're laughing about?
11:08With you, it's all unusual.
11:25I've never had a second year before.
11:27Well, well, someone got a haircut.
11:34I did.
11:36It looks good.
11:38Really.
11:39I was hoping this way I would look more like an actual high school girl.
11:43Very life's been extended.
11:46And I want to make the most of it.
11:49So I'll start by dressing the part.
11:52Thanks, Ryo.
11:53I know I'll be counting on you a lot this year as well.
11:56You've changed quite a lot.
12:05I've been watching as you've gradually made real progress since the second year of your experiment began.
12:10Which is the goal of any handler.
12:11All right, gang.
12:26Today's homeroom agenda is to pick our officers for the cultural festival.
12:30I would start by asking for volunteers.
12:33But since no one ever does, we all know that's pointless.
12:35So let's just split up into girls and boys and see if we can figure something out.
12:39A cultural festival, huh?
12:43When I was a real student, I thought these school events were a pain.
12:47Just more busy work.
12:49Why is it so hard to realize what we've got till it's gone?
12:52That these are experiences we'll never have again.
12:56At least most people won't.
12:58Arita, you know, you could be a festival officer.
13:02What do you say?
13:03Seriously?
13:04The school might give you a better eval so you can get into college.
13:07Didn't know they were in the bribery business.
13:11The school's evaluation is meaningless anyway.
13:14I won't have a next year.
13:15I'm kidding.
13:16I actually do think you'd be a good pick.
13:19I'm sure you'd come up with something fun for us.
13:21And you can rally people without seeming bossy.
13:23Yeah, you would be good at it.
13:25Luckily, it won't matter how bad your grades suck either.
13:28Gee, thanks.
13:29It's been a while since people have put their hopes in me.
13:34Feels kind of nice.
13:36Yeah, sure.
13:38Let's do this thing.
13:39All right, guys.
13:40I think it's official.
13:41Arita's going to be the boys' officer.
13:43Yeah!
13:45Now let's see how the girls are doing.
13:48Uh, okay.
13:54Hey, Chizuru.
13:55I thought you girls were picking someone together, but I guess you're just straight up volunteering?
13:59I am.
14:01Well, that was easy.
14:03We'll let our new festival officers take charge of our little planning session from here.
14:08One, two, one, three, four!
14:11That was productive.
14:14Based on their brainstorming, it seems everybody's happy with the English-style cafe idea.
14:20We can work with that.
14:22The first problem will be finding enough outfits.
14:25I have to say, you really surprised me.
14:28Huh?
14:28I never would have guessed you'd volunteer for this.
14:31And why wouldn't I?
14:32I don't know.
14:33I mean, obviously, it was a wrong assumption, but I didn't think you'd be into a big group thing.
14:37Well, I missed out on class rep this semester, so I wanted to redeem myself by taking on something else.
14:44Sure, makes sense.
14:46Also, I took your advice from our night out.
14:52Be bold, okay?
14:55Make all the real friendships you can, and fall in love if you're lucky.
14:59Tell me that you'll make the most of every moment.
15:05Wow, you remembered that?
15:07Of course I do.
15:08It wasn't that long ago.
15:09I'm capable of long-term memory.
15:13Clearly, yeah.
15:14Yeah.
15:27Let's knock this out of the park, Chizuru.
15:29Yeah, obviously.
15:30Obviously.
15:37Wow, that's intense.
15:43I know, right?
15:45A cafe budget, rental agreements for kitchenware and appliances, applications for public health permits,
15:50logistics schedule, work shifts, and everything else we could possibly need,
15:53all filled out, signed, and in triplicate.
15:56When Chizuru puts her mind to it, no paperwork stands a chance.
15:59Then why are you the one bragging about it?
16:02Hey, what are you doing here all by yourself?
16:05Weren't you and Reyna going to hang out?
16:09About that, do you have time to talk?
16:13We went out the other day, and then Reyna wanted to come over to my place.
16:22I just shot her down without an explanation.
16:25I said it wasn't a good idea and I didn't want to talk about it, and then before I knew it, we were fighting.
16:30I'm surprised you told her that.
16:32I mean, having a girl over is a good thing, right?
16:35Well, don't get me wrong.
16:37I was super happy she asked me.
16:39Things have been going really great.
16:42I wanted to, but...
16:44But what?
16:49It's just...
16:50My, uh...
16:53My older brother.
16:56He's kind of been a shut-in for a while.
16:58He was bullied pretty bad at his first job after school.
17:04Some of his colleagues kept harassing him until he couldn't take it anymore, and so he quit.
17:11You didn't let Reyna come over because you didn't want her to find out about him?
17:16Guess that was part of the reason.
17:19Mostly I was thinking about how it would make him feel to see me enjoying life with this amazing girl.
17:24I was scared.
17:28I don't know, man.
17:30I get your point, but I don't think you should worry about that.
17:33What?
17:34Why not?
17:35He's having a really tough time.
17:36He barely gets out of bed.
17:38Yeah, but if everyone walks on eggshells around him and hides their actual happiness, it's just going to make him feel worse.
17:44All he'll ever see is gloom.
17:46You'll help him more by acting normal.
17:48What makes home feel like home is everyone can be themselves, pretending just puts up walls.
17:54Yeah, but Reyna's such an overachiever.
17:57What if seeing how my home life really is makes her think less of me?
18:01I hear what you're saying, but I think you're underestimating her.
18:04She sets high standards for herself and wants to be perfect, which makes her stubborn and flexible and maybe even overwhelming.
18:12But that doesn't mean she judges other people for their flaws.
18:16If anything, because she's hard on herself, she knows more than anyone how bad it hurts to come up short and feel like you've lost your way.
18:24Yeah, good point.
18:31You should just try being honest with her and she'll understand.
18:34She probably got mad because you didn't give her that chance, you know?
18:50Makes sense.
18:51You're right.
18:52Man, I'm really glad I talked to you guys about this.
18:56Thanks, you guys!
19:02Just who are you, Arata?
19:04Huh?
19:05Kazu was so worried about how to handle that, but you said one thing to him and now he seems fine.
19:11Hey, that was a team effort, so save some credit for yourself.
19:14You're the one who explained Reyna so well.
19:16I was impressed.
19:17When you think about it, I was like Kazuomi's brother once.
19:27He's having a really tough time.
19:29He barely gets out of bed.
19:30You really are a great guy, Kazuomi.
19:34You couldn't know it, but what you said gave me a huge lift.
19:40I just can't help but wonder.
19:43What would Chizuru think if she knew the real me?
19:46Hey, is something wrong?
19:48What?
19:49With me?
19:49No!
19:50Why am I asking that?
19:57Why am I worried about what she thinks?
20:03You gotta pull your weight, boys.
20:05What do I ask for plywood?
20:07We're making pretty good progress, right?
20:09Can I get some nails?
20:10Sure thing.
20:11The end is perfect.
20:13Pona, look!
20:13Okay, well, at least we have two.
20:17According to my measurements, it'd be ideal to have five.
20:20Yeah, but now all the classes want to up their game, too.
20:23It's an all-out war.
20:25We got the rest of the material for curtains.
20:28Whoa, really?
20:28Thanks to my time on the volleyball team, I knew where to look.
20:32Yeah, but I'm the one who got permission from the student council to use it.
20:35Hey!
20:36Without me, you never would have known the extra was in that closet.
20:39Yeah, yeah, you're a lifesaver.
20:41Is that sarcasm?
20:43Wow, Honoka!
20:45That's incredible!
20:47We've got your outfit ready, too, Reina.
20:49You want to go try it on?
20:50My what?
20:51Oh, yeah, you gotta wear one!
20:52You'll look so hot!
20:53So listen, Arata.
20:55Huh?
20:56I wasn't counting on getting all the curtains we wanted, so I already made adjustments.
21:00I'll need to redo the layout.
21:01Oh, okay.
21:02Do you need some help?
21:03No, thanks.
21:04It'll be faster if I just do it myself.
21:06You go see if you can borrow some extra clips for those curtains.
21:09Wait, actually, those gym curtains are probably a little heavier,
21:12so safety pins would work better.
21:14Can you find some of those instead?
21:16Sure.
21:17You got it.
21:18She's got you wrapped around her finger.
21:20Good luck, Arata!
21:21Get back here!
21:21If you guys are just sticking around to mess with us, then get out!
21:24Good luck!
21:54She wore herself out. I'm not surprised.
22:24I'm not surprised.
22:54Admit it.
23:02I'm in love with you, Chisiru.
23:24You think you'll be able to work with Chisiru?
23:28Absolutely. I'll support her to the end.
23:31But what is it she calls you again?
23:33The transfer student with braids and glasses? That's just how she shows affection.
23:37All right, then I'll call you transfer student.
23:39Don't you dare.
