00:00Next, Iwata.
00:16Hi.
00:18It's okay, your height's about five feet, six inches.
00:21And your weight is...
00:23It's just a growing face, that's all.
00:30Whenever we do these physical fitness tests, I can't help but think...
00:34How petite all the other girls are, compared to me.
00:40Come on, Iwa, tell us how tall you are!
00:42Huh?
00:43Come on, I'm curious, let me see your sheet!
00:46What?
00:47No, no way!
00:49No! Watch out, Iwa!
00:50Sorry, Iwa!
00:51Iwata, you okay?
01:04Um, Iwata?
01:06Yeah, I'm fine.
01:10Here.
01:11Don't worry, I didn't look.
01:19See ya.
01:24I'm so embarrassed.
01:26Oh, wow, you fixed the door.
01:28You're so strong, Iwa!
01:29You're superhuman!
01:31Kamoshido is so cool!
01:33Looks like a total player, though.
01:35No, Kamoshido isn't like that at all!
01:39Oh, right!
01:40I forgot that you two were in grade school together, huh?
01:43Was he cool as a kid, too?
01:46Yeah.
01:47He was really cool back then.
01:49But he was also a bit different when he was little.
01:56Koki Kamoshido...
01:57He's the first boy I've ever loved.
02:18Looking back now, it's kind of a long story.
02:21Okay, Sai.
02:29Smile for the camera.
02:30Say cheese.
02:36You're such a big girl, Sai, eh?
02:38You might be the tallest kid in your entire grade.
02:42Huh?
02:43She's so cute!
02:45You're a first grader, right?
02:46You're adorable!
02:48First day at school?
02:49So what are you most excited about?
02:51School lunches?
02:52I heard that when you go to big kids' school,
02:55you get to eat a special lunch every day.
02:57We're excited about lunch!
02:58Aw, that's so cute!
03:00Sai!
03:01Did you hear that, Koki?
03:02That girl's looking forward to lunch.
03:05But drinking milk is still a bit scary for us, right, sweetheart?
03:11Is it because you're allergic?
03:18It's gross.
03:19It's okay.
03:19I really love milk, so I can drink yours for you if you want.
03:23Really?
03:27Okay, then.
03:28Thanks a lot!
03:29I guess it was love at first sight.
03:37Isn't that a little bit too much milk?
03:39My stomach and I are starting endurance training.
03:42For the next six years, I was drinking milk for two.
03:47We were in the same class every year.
03:49I was drinking milk for two.
03:50Most of the time we sat right next to each other.
03:54Heed!
03:55Gerbil's head.
03:57The gerbil's head!
03:59Okay, Iwata.
04:01Giving him the answer isn't doing him any favors.
04:07Sai!
04:08I'm sorry you got in trouble because of me.
04:12Thank you, though.
04:15He's always been cool.
04:16At least to me.
04:18Iwa, watch out!
04:21Ever since we were in grade school.
04:24How did she catch that?
04:26Watch out, it's Iwa!
04:28She has to fall!
04:28Look out, look out, look out!
04:30Come to think of it, I remember playing this game when we were little.
04:38Pass it here, pass it here!
04:41Oh no, he's aiming for Koki.
04:50Ha ha, Koki's out of bounds!
04:55What about you?
04:56Yes, I need to function a little.
05:00It's out!
05:01Ha ha!
05:02Oh, I got it!
05:08Takoyaki's Koki's favorite.
05:24He hates everything else.
05:27Hey, Koki, I'm so sorry I pushed you down earlier.
05:32Here, you take my Takoyaki!
05:35Huh?
05:36But why?
05:39Oh, you look kind of sad.
05:42Besides, you love Takoyaki!
05:44We just swap plates, so dumb!
05:47No, not at all!
05:53He was so kind.
05:55He worked hard to play for the boys' soccer team.
06:06He was skinnier and smaller than kids that were younger than him.
06:10Ha ha ha!
06:12But he looked big and strong to me.
06:14He amazed me.
06:15I couldn't take my eyes off him even if I wanted to.
06:19Maybe it was selfish, but I was glad none of my other friends had an interest in Koki.
06:26And then, in sixth grade, he had a growth spurt.
06:33We're almost through junior high.
06:36And at this point, everyone else sees how cool he is, too.
06:40Oh, Iwata, good morning.
06:42Good morning, Kamoshiro.
06:45I don't even know when his voice got so deep.
06:48Okay, I'm coming.
06:49We don't call each other by our first names anymore.
06:52But he still talks to me whenever he sees me, just like when we were kids.
06:57Still, I know I need to get over this silly crush.
07:00My friend, Koki, is now Kamoshiro.
07:05You know how it feels when your favorite indie band or an obscure manga you love gets really popular overnight?
07:12But, like, you suddenly have to share them.
07:15This is kind of like that.
07:18There he is!
07:19Everyone's finally learned to appreciate him.
07:22I should be happy.
07:25It's great.
07:25I just can't help feeling a little bit lonely, like I've been left behind.
07:33But it's not like we were ever together or anything.
07:36My crush has always been one-sided.
07:40And now it's too late to tell him how I feel.
07:43I can't tell anyone.
07:46The Koki I fell for as a kid has grown up to become Kamoshiro,
07:51one of the coolest, most popular guys in the whole school.
07:55Who's the class rep for sports day?
08:07Oh, that would be me.
08:09There's a meeting after school up on the second floor.
08:12Don't forget.
08:16And that's the door I broke.
08:18I didn't know you were a class rep.
08:26Yeah, we're a class B.
08:27Oh, nice.
08:29These meetings are so boring.
08:32Yeah, but I'm excited for sports day.
08:35Okay, is everybody here?
08:37Let's take attendance.
08:39White team, 1A, here.
08:41Oh, I almost forgot.
08:44Every grade needs to have a banner to carry for the event.
08:48I suggest that two people from each grade make them together.
08:52What?
08:53Seriously?
08:53We have to do that?
08:55I thought we had to do that.
08:56Hey, Iwata.
08:57Huh?
08:59You're pretty good at arts and crafts, right?
09:01Uh, yeah.
09:03Sure.
09:04So, um, want to team up?
09:07What do you think?
09:09I don't know anyone else here.
09:14Iwata and Kamoshira will make the banner for the 9th graders.
09:18Can we...
09:20No!
09:21Iwa, you've got an art like a cannon.
09:23They're serving super strong, so watch out, 7th graders!
09:33Oh, all done?
09:36Oh, we're working on our sports day banner today, right?
09:39I guess we should go up to the classroom and get started.
09:42Class reps like us have to put in extra work, right?
09:46This thing's massive.
09:48What design should we do?
09:50How about this?
09:53Now that I think about it, Kamoshira's always been good at drawing.
09:58Well?
10:00Cool!
10:01I didn't know he could do that.
10:02Hey, thanks!
10:03Okay, let's do it!
10:07Should we use markers, or...?
10:09For something this size, I think paint would be better.
10:12I'll go get some!
10:24A star brighter than the sun.
10:31All done!
10:33What are you two doing alone in the classroom so late?
10:36We were just making our banner for sports day.
10:40Our teachers gave us permission earlier.
10:43Oh, is that so?
10:44My mistake.
10:46This is your banner, huh?
10:47Hmm.
10:48Not sure if that's really appropriate for junior high.
10:51What?
10:52But it's so cool.
10:53Well, I guess kids these days are into this sort of thing.
10:56Okay, I can take it over to the teacher's lounge for you.
10:59Now go home.
11:00Now go home.
11:00It's already seven.
11:04See you later.
11:04Night.
11:07Huh?
11:08What?
11:08Crap!
11:10I can't find my bike key!
11:12I couldn't find it in the hallway anywhere.
11:17Yeah, I couldn't find it in my desk either.
11:20Well, I guess I'll walk then.
11:23I'm sure it'll turn up tomorrow.
11:24But no, you can't just give up.
11:26We can find it.
11:27I know, how about you try closing your eyes and retracing all of your steps?
11:31Oh, no, now he's acting weird and it's my fault.
11:48It's in my pocket!
11:51You're kidding me.
11:53Sorry.
11:55Well, at least you know where it is now.
11:58Yeah, that's true.
11:59But it's too bad it's so late now.
12:02Here, hop on.
12:03I can give you a ride.
12:09It's okay, I'll run home.
12:11But biking's so much faster.
12:13Okay, but you have to let me pedal.
12:15The seat would be too high for you.
12:18I might be too heavy.
12:21I wouldn't worry about that.
12:22I give rides to my soccer teammates all the time.
12:25I can handle it.
12:26No sweat.
12:27I probably weigh a lot more than you think.
12:30Sometimes I ride with Negishi.
12:32You're probably right then.
12:35You doing the relay race?
12:37Uh-huh.
12:38You were always a fast runner.
12:40Even back when we were still little kids.
12:42It's just because I have long legs.
12:43My abs are killing me.
12:46And it's not like sucking my stomach in is going to do anything to help make me lighter.
12:51Oh, my house is that way.
12:54Yeah, I know.
12:55It's not the first time I've been there, remember?
12:57Iwata, hey, do you still like school lunches?
13:03Yeah, I do.
13:04You know, I'm not the picky eater I used to be.
13:07Really?
13:07That's great.
13:09The food they make at school is pretty good.
13:11The fried rice and ramen, especially the chicken.
13:14I'd always hope you'd learn to enjoy different kinds of food.
13:17Well, you can rest easy now.
13:28Flat tire.
13:30Yeah.
13:32I'm sorry.
13:33Why are you apologizing?
13:35Piece of glass, that makes sense.
13:38All right, well, come on, I'll walk you home.
13:40No, it's okay, don't worry about me.
13:42I'm sorry about your bike, but thanks anyway.
13:44You know, Iwata, you've always been this way.
13:49Remember back in grade school how you let everyone else go ahead of you during the obstacle course?
13:56No need to do that with me.
14:01What high school are you applying to?
14:07Me? North High.
14:09Oh, that's a great school.
14:11You've always been smart, Iwata.
14:12And what about you?
14:16North High.
14:18Oh, same one as me.
14:21Yep.
14:24It's been a while since we talked like this.
14:26Yeah, it has.
14:28It's too bad we were never in the same class in junior high.
14:30For the first time in a long while, we talked like we used to.
14:38Everyone finds it easy to talk to Kamoshiro.
14:42He'd have given a ride to anyone who helped him find his key.
14:45He'd have taken them anywhere, no matter how far away they lived.
14:49I feel guilty.
14:51If someone else was on his bike, I bet he wouldn't have a flat tire now.
14:56He's so kind.
14:57Iwata, can you move this?
15:06We need it for the tug of war.
15:08I think I saw Kamoshiro over there.
15:10He's strong.
15:10Get him to help you carry it.
15:12Kamoshiro?
15:13Hey, you painted the banner for a grade, right?
15:16It looks great.
15:17Love the design you went with.
15:18Iwata, isn't that heavy?
15:30Let us help you.
15:31Oh, thanks.
15:32Wow, you're moving this all by yourself?
15:35Hey, Iwata, time for girls' keep-as-ends.
15:37You are playing, right?
15:38Yeah, let's go!
15:48And begin!
15:50Let's go!
15:51We're gonna grab every single one of those cats!
15:57Lift me up higher!
15:58Okay!
15:59Whatever I do, I can't drop her.
16:05She'll get hurt if she falls.
16:14All right, and the white team wins!
16:17Their general is the last one standing!
16:20Man, those girls are scary.
16:22Yeah, their team looks crazy strong.
16:25I'd just turn and run.
16:27Oh, my hair is totally a disaster now.
16:30I got dirt all over it when I fell.
16:32No, it looks fine.
16:33Don't worry.
16:34What about mine?
16:36You look great.
16:38Next up, the boys' kibasen!
16:40Now it's the boys' turn.
16:42Can you duck down a bit, Iwata?
16:44Oh, sorry.
16:46Hey, Toki!
16:47Go, Kamoshiro!
16:49You're the team general, huh?
16:50I did see you practicing in P.E.,
16:53but I can't believe how strong you've gotten.
17:00You're amazing.
17:01I've always known that,
17:03but I guess everyone else does now, too.
17:06And that's great.
17:08I'm okay.
17:09I don't need you to look at me.
17:11I don't feel lonely.
17:13Go, go, go!
17:14Go!
17:16Okay, next up is the ninth grade scavenger hunt!
17:20Ready?
17:23BANG!
17:36Hey, I need your help.
17:38Who?
17:38Me?
17:39Uh, okay.
17:41Someone you love?
17:43Yeah, I love her.
17:44Yon is my favorite!
17:45Coming up, the boys' scavenger hunt!
17:50I wonder who snuck that card into the mix.
18:00Iwata!
18:02Wait, why are you looking around?
18:04I said your name.
18:05Okay, let me see your card.
18:18Come on!
18:20What's it say, Watanabe?
18:21Don't keep us waiting!
18:23Find a girl who's big.
18:32Oh, that's a big girl, all right.
19:02Kamashiro to see me that way.
19:09Hang on, it didn't say that.
19:12It said, I can't believe I'm telling you.
19:16The card said to find a cute girl.
19:18You were the first one I thought of, so...
19:21Not that I was trying to hide it or anything, but...
19:24I've never said that to you before.
19:26And the last thing I wanted was for someone else to say it for me.
19:30That's why I told him not to read it.
19:32I'm really sorry.
19:34Oh, no, it's fine.
19:36It's not a big deal.
19:44Our banner turned out pretty good, huh?
19:50Yeah, it did.
20:00Over it!
20:02You can do it.
20:15Just do your best, bud.
20:16I kept telling myself I wasn't allowed to love him.
20:25After all, he wasn't the little boy I knew in grade school.
20:30He's now out of my reach, and I know he'll never feel the same way.
20:33But even if that's true, even if it's unrequited, there's never been a rule that you're not allowed to fall in love.
20:49I don't know why, but she wanted to get a picture of you.
21:01Cool?
21:01Sure.
21:03Hey, Takuya!
21:04Take a photo of us!
21:05Together?
21:08Say cheese.
21:11Okay, there you go.
21:12That looks great.
21:15Thanks, man.
21:17Sorry about that, but I guess my parents still think we're kids.
21:19Oh, I'm so sorry.
21:22I got too close, huh?
21:23It's fine.
21:28Hey, do you mind sending that photo to me, too?
21:32Sure.
21:33Let me get your number real quick.
21:35Okay.
21:35Sending it now.
21:38Just a sec.
21:39We're gonna be in the same high school, aren't we?
21:41Yeah.
21:42I might need some help with homework.
21:45Would it be okay for me to text you?
21:46Of course it's okay.
21:48Maybe we'll finally get to be in the same class again.
21:51Yeah, that'd be really great.
21:54Hey, you said you like Kohaku Manju, right?
21:56Mm-hmm.
21:57You can just buy them as a snack, but getting them for graduation feels really special.
22:02Yeah, they feel like a little reward.
22:04Do you want mine, too?
22:06What?
22:07Are you sure?
22:08Thank you so much.
22:09There you go.
22:11Guess I'll see you in high school.
22:14I've always loved that snaggletooth smile.
22:17He hasn't changed at all.
22:19I guess most girls would want a button from a boy's uniform, but I'm still happy.
22:24Even if it is just Kohaku Manju.
22:27It may be hopeless, but I'm not giving up on this crush.
22:34I'm in the same class as Kamoshiro.
22:39This is great.
22:40I wonder if he's here already.
22:43Now that we're in high school, I've decided to give it a shot.
22:47I can't believe we're classmates.
22:48It's like the universe is telling me to go for it.
22:58Whoa, she's so light.
23:00And her hair is so smooth.
23:02Oh no, I'm so sorry.
23:04Those stairs are slippery.
23:05Oh, it's okay.
23:13You alright?
23:15Yeah, I'm fine.
23:16Why do I keep running into him at the worst time?
23:19I'm glad you're okay.
23:21Hey, we're in the same class.
23:24I can't believe how good he looks in the high school uniform.
23:27Hey, what club are you going to join?
23:34I'm thinking about the tennis club.
23:36I still haven't decided.
23:38Want to join the volleyball team?
23:40We'll see!
