00:00My name is Hiro Nakano. I'm a 17-year-old introverted guy attending Koiwa Academy.
00:06Well, this time is just okay, I guess.
00:10Ugh, he's in first place again.
00:13Seriously, so cocky.
00:16Our school is a prestigious private academy known for having wealthy students.
00:21Honestly, it's a bit uncomfortable for someone like me from an average family.
00:27But that doesn't mean I can afford to let my grades slip.
00:31I'm a scholarship student attending on financial aid.
00:35Poor people really do struggle. You look desperate.
00:40What did you say?
00:42You're probably staying up late every night studying, right? It's not good for your health.
00:48Say that after you beat me, a perennial second place loser.
00:53You! Who's a loser?
00:56This guy is Tsubasa Aoki, the heir of the Tokisuku Corporation, and his family is insanely rich.
01:03We went to different schools when we were kids.
01:06But we became good friends after coincidentally meeting and often playing together at the park.
01:11Now we're like cats and dogs, though.
01:14I seriously hate you.
01:16Annoying. Don't talk to me.
01:19What did you say?
01:20Just forget it.
01:22You bark too much. You really start to look like a loser, you know?
01:28Uh, Maya.
01:30Hello there.
01:31This person is Maya Yamada. Apparently, Tsubasa's attendant.
01:35To be honest, she's a mysterious person who's hard to grasp.
01:39The break time is over. Please return to the classroom.
01:43Huh? I'm still with him.
01:45If you linger too much, you understand what might happen, right?
01:50Ugh. Fine.
01:52Hey, Hido. Let's settle this in the next test. Just you wait and see.
01:57Uh, yeah.
01:59Tsubasa surrendered so easily. Maya is truly unfathomable.
02:04Um, Hido?
02:06Yes, what is it?
02:08Please continue to get along with Tsubasa in the future.
02:11Wha- Okay.
02:13Thank you. Well then, I'll go back to my own classroom.
02:18Y-Yeah.
02:20That Tsubasa. Rich, handsome, smart, and with a beautiful attendant.
02:26How much of a winner is he?
02:28God really does give some people everything.
02:31This was my daily life.
02:33A few days later, a small incident occurred.
02:37We got a transfer student in our class! Everyone, get excited!
02:41I'm Karen Sasaki. I came from Japan.
02:45Whoa! A cute girl is here!
02:47Looks like a model!
02:49My mom is British, but my dad is Japanese. Nice to meet you all!
02:54Whoa! Her accent!
02:56Let's be friends, Karen!
02:58Oh, thank you, thank you.
03:01Everyone's giving her such a warm welcome. She's certainly cute.
03:06Ugh.
03:08After homeroom.
03:09Hido! Wait a moment!
03:11What is it, Miss Ran?
03:13You have an important role. Take care of Karen. Her English is still a bit weak.
03:19Huh? Me?
03:21Your Japanese grades are excellent, right? After all, you're the top of the class.
03:26W-Well, yeah, but...
03:29And she's a cute girl. Opportunities like this don't come often.
03:35It's not about that.
03:37Aww. Karen would be troubled, you know. She needs someone to take care of her.
03:43And Hido, it's you.
03:46Grrr. Fine. It's just until she gets used to the school, okay?
03:52Great! I thought she would say yes!
03:55You're really pushing it.
03:57Why is he taking up that responsibility? I never acknowledged being someone's caretaker.
04:03After school that day.
04:05Hello? I'm Hiro. I've been assigned as your caretaker.
04:09Oh! I heard from Miss Ran. Nice to meet you.
04:13Nice to meet you, too. Um...
04:16Just call me Karen. I call you Hiro?
04:20Alright, Karen. I'll be showing you around the school from now on.
04:24Hold on!
04:26Tsubasa? You're still here?
04:29I'll help being that guy, too.
04:31Huh? It's okay. You don't have to.
04:34Shut up! I'm just worried if you handle it alone.
04:38What do you mean? I can guide her through the school alone.
04:41A journey shared is a kindness to the world. Let's explore together.
04:47See? Even she says that.
04:50Well, if Karen is fine with it, I guess it's okay.
04:54Hey! Seems so friendly already. Isn't it too soon?
04:59Huh? What's wrong? Jealous, perhaps?
05:02It's not like that!
05:04What's up with Tsubasa? What a hassle, getting involved again.
05:08And so, I and Tsubasa ended up guiding Karen around the school together.
05:13One hour later. This should be the last stop.
05:16Karen, this is our school cafeteria.
05:19Oh! Cafeteria! I've seen it in anime! Oh, I'm so excited!
05:25Getting so excited about a cafeteria. Let's take a break. I'm tired from all this walking.
05:32Nice idea. I'd like a bowl of cold noodle, please.
05:37Hmm. It would have been great if we could order, but it's after school.
05:42The cafeteria ladies are probably gone by now.
05:45Can't we eat? I'm hungry.
05:48Then how about some snacks? There's a vending machine over there.
05:53Oh! In that case, Pocky! Let's get some Pocky!
05:57Sure. Karen, do you really like Pocky that much?
06:01Yes! I saw it in anime!
06:04You've been fixated on that since earlier.
06:08A few minutes later.
06:10So let's play the Pocky game! Oh, I've always wanted to try it!
06:14Huh?
06:15Wait, did you mean that Pocky game from the anime?
06:19Come on, hero! Let's do it! Prepare for a fair and square match!
06:24Huh? I'm the opponent?
06:26Wait, hold on! It's too early for Karen. I'll show you how it's done.
06:31Wait, that's absurd! Why are two guys doing...
06:36Quit your whining, just do it!
06:38Oh! This is the real Pocky game, isn't it? Be amazed! Let's go, let's go!
06:46W-what? Even Karen?
06:49Hurry up! It's embarrassing! Don't keep us waiting!
06:53Grr...
06:55W-what's with this guy? He is cute? No, no, Tsubasa is a guy, right?
07:02Ah! Watching makes my heart pound! Pocky is amazing!
07:09Since then, whenever I and Karen are together, Tsubasa always seems to interrupt.
07:15Thanks for everything! Here, uh...
07:19Wait, you don't have to do that!
07:22Hmph! If that's the case, I'll feed him! Come on, uh...
07:27W-why? This is weird!
07:29Oh my! You seem quite popular! Congratulations!
07:34It's not like that! Instead of watching, please help me! He's your attendant, right?
07:41That's impossible! Lunch break is off-duty time!
07:45Ugh, I hate labor laws!
07:48On another day...
07:50Hiro, what does this mean? English is difficult.
07:55Oh, is this today's homework? Let me take a look.
07:59Yes. Ugh, they're alone again!
08:03Let me see, I'll teach you.
08:05Hey, Tsubasa, stop it! Don't push me!
08:09Shut up! If I don't do this, I won't be able to see the textbook!
08:13Grr! What's with this guy? Even though he's a guy, he smells good! I feel a bit dizzy.
08:21Oh! You two are really close friends!
08:25This continued for about a month. Perhaps due to the stress, my health deteriorated.
08:32Ugh, feeling sluggish. My fever won't go down at all. Maybe I should rest quietly today.
08:39It's all Tsubasa's fault. He's been acting strange lately. No, maybe I'm the one acting strange.
08:47Before I knew it, I had fallen asleep.
08:50I love you, Hiro. Let me be your wife.
08:55But we're both guys.
08:57Does it matter if we're both guys? I'm serious, I really love you so much!
09:03What? I love you too, Tsubasa. Gender doesn't matter.
09:08I'm a happy Hiro.
09:10Tsubasa, I won't let you go.
09:13Yes, make me yours only.
09:17No way! There's a huge problem! That guy is a guy, you know?
09:23Wait, is this a dream? What on earth am I seeing?
09:27But Tsubasa looked cute in that dream just now.
09:31Instead of saying stupid things, let me sleep a bit more.
09:38Huh? Who could it be?
09:40Hiro, are you asleep?
09:43Tsubasa, could it be he's here again to say something sarcastic?
09:47Too troublesome. I'll pretend to be asleep.
09:51If you're feeling unwell, it's because of me, right? Always picking on you. I'm sorry.
09:58What is it? At least he seems to be aware of it.
10:02If I could, I'd stop acting like this right away.
10:05I want to properly convey these feelings to you, but it's impossible.
10:10Huh? What is Tsubasa saying? And what's that sound just now?
10:15I really love you. I'll confess once we graduate. Just wait a bit longer.
10:23Huh? Is he a girl?
10:26In the end, because of everything, my fever didn't subside even after Tsubasa left.
10:33And the next day.
10:35G-good morning.
10:38What's up? Already here? I'd appreciate it if you took a bit more rest.
10:44W-well, my fever went down a bit, so...
10:48By the way, what's with you?
10:50W-what?
10:52Why won't you look me in the eye? Look at me properly!
10:56It's nothing. Seriously, it's nothing.
11:00Don't lie. You're definitely hiding something, right? Something guilty, perhaps?
11:07There's nothing. Please, I beg you, stay a bit farther away from me. Otherwise, I...
11:15Oh, fighting is not good. Allow me to mediate. Ahem, well then.
11:23During the break.
11:25Oh, Hiro. Can I ask you something?
11:29Hm? What's up?
11:31There's something I want you to tell me.
11:34Uh, what is it?
11:36I want to know your type. Could you please tell me what kind of person you like?
11:41What?
11:43I want to know more about you.
11:45No way, could it be that Karen is interested in me?
11:50So someone like Karen is your type?
11:54Tsubasa, I never said anything like that.
11:58Isn't it okay? I think you two would make a good match. Well, it's good for you to have a girlfriend like her.
12:05No, that's not what I meant.
12:08Oops, we better get back quickly. Make sure you guys are not late for class.
12:13Hey, we're not done talking.
12:17What's wrong? Did Tsubasa leave?
12:21Yeah, from the next day onwards. As for Tsubasa...
12:26Tsubasa is... Oh, absent again today.
12:31Seems like a cold is going around lately. Everyone be careful.
12:36Yes!
12:38During lunch break, feeling concerned, I decided to visit Maya's classroom.
12:43So, has he been holed up all this time?
12:47Yes, no matter how much I call Tsubasa won't come out of the room.
12:52But why?
12:54Ugh, are you seriously asking that?
12:58Uh... Um, Maya...
13:02What's up?
13:04Is Tsubasa actually a girl?
13:06You noticed, huh?
13:08Yeah, actually the other day I...
13:12I see. Well, maybe I can tell you, since it's you.
13:19The story goes, Tsubasa had a close call with abduction when he was a child.
13:25Although he managed to escape unharmed, his father, fearing that he might get involved in another incident if he remained as a girl,
13:32decided to raise Tsubasa as a boy until adulthood.
13:36It sounds like a manga story.
13:39It may be hard to believe, but it's true.
13:42The mission has been obtained even from the school.
13:45Being wealthy has its own challenges.
13:48Ugh, so after all, is it true?
13:52Is Tsubasa really a girl and does she have a crush on me?
13:56Then, what do I think about her?
14:00Three days later, Tsubasa still hadn't returned to school.
14:04Hiro, you're close to Tsubasa, right?
14:07Can you take these handouts to his house?
14:09Wait, why should I? We're like cats and dogs, you know?
14:13Really? You guys seem really close to me.
14:17Uh...
14:19Besides, you probably have something on your mind, right? You should tell him directly.
14:25Ugh, why do you know about that?
14:28Don't underestimate my sense of smell. I'm sensitive to the scent of youth.
14:35What's that supposed to mean?
14:38But thanks to the teacher, I've made up my mind. I'll talk to her about what I really feel.
14:44After school...
14:46So this is Tsubasa's house? It's huge!
14:50Hiro, you finally come!
14:53Maya, and that outfit...
14:56It's not that strange, is it? I am Tsubasa's attendant after all.
15:01I guess so.
15:03I have something I want to tell Tsubasa. Maya, please help me with that.
15:07He said he doesn't want to see anyone. Just quietly go home.
15:11No way! I won't go home until I see Tsubasa and talk!
15:16Is that so? You don't intend to obey quietly?
15:20Yeah.
15:22In that case, you'll have to force your way through.
15:26I'm sorry, but I'll have to do that.
15:29Huh!
15:30Alright, here I go!
15:33And the result of the showdown was...
15:36It's a hundred years too early for you to defeat me!
15:40Even though I'm still far from perfect, I'm a professional in self-defense techniques!
15:45Ugh, that's harsh.
15:48But, you managed to convey your feelings. Well, a little.
15:54Please take care of Tsubasa for me. She's like a little sister to me.
15:59Maya!
16:01Oh, I seem to have a little scrape.
16:05Huh? Are you okay?
16:07I'm perfectly fine, but I should treat it just in case.
16:11I believe the first aid kit is in Tsubasa's room.
16:15It's on the second floor, turn right, and it's the furthest room.
16:19Thank you so much!
16:21I guess I was caught talking to myself.
16:24A few minutes later...
16:26Tsubasa, are you here?
16:28Wha? Hiro, why are you...
16:32Miss Ran asked me to deliver some handouts.
16:35Are you kidding me? Who just barges into someone's room like that?
16:39No, actually, there's more to it than that.
16:43Huh? What is it?
16:46I can't wait until graduation. Tsubasa, I like you.
16:50Wha? You mean... you knew about that time?
16:55That's a minor issue. The bigger problem is here.
16:59This is a big deal for me.
17:01What should I do? I never thought you would find out.
17:05Actually, I've been curious about you even before realizing you were a girl.
17:10Lately, I've been dreaming about you every night.
17:13Is that so?
17:15But, I mean, you must hate me, right?
17:19We're always arguing and stuff.
17:22There's no way.
17:24Besides, the reason I'm attending this school is because of the promise we made back then.
17:29Remember? We said we'd go to the same high school together.
17:33You remembered that promise? I'm happy.
17:37So, why did you keep getting involved with me?
17:40Are you seriously saying that?
17:43In middle school, when I confessed to you, you rejected me.
17:46I was deeply hurt.
17:48Confession?
17:50I asked you to go out with me, and you said it's impossible because I'm a guy.
17:56Wait, you were serious? I thought it was some kind of joke or something.
18:00There's no way!
18:02For me, you were my first love.
18:06When we were kids, you always protected me when I was weak.
18:10That's why.
18:12I see. I'm sorry for realizing it so late.
18:16It's okay. From now on, just see me as a girl, alright?
18:22I promise. I really like you, Tsubasa.
18:26I really like you too, Hiro.
18:29And so, we started our secret relationship.
18:32We decided to keep it a secret until Tsubasa turned 20.
18:36How does it feel to be back at school after a while?
18:40It feels strange somehow.
18:42Oh? Have you two made up?
18:45Karen, about the other day...
18:47What's the matter?
18:49I appreciate your feelings, but I can't reciprocate. I'm sorry.
18:54What are you talking about?
18:56Haven't you felt something for me?
18:59That's why you asked about my preferences and all.
19:03No! I was planning to secretly tell Tsubasa about it.
19:08I found out that you like Tsubasa.
19:12What? You knew Tsubasa was a girl?
19:16Yes. There's no way such a cute boy could exist.
19:20That's true.
19:23What are you two whispering about?
19:26Hey, we're supposed to keep this a secret at school.
19:29Shut up! You're mine. Any problem with that?
19:36I became completely captivated by the now adorable Tsubasa.
19:40If we're not careful, everyone will find out about us soon.
