[bunniefuu]

FINAL EXAMS

Time's up!

Okay, pass them down from the back.

Honda.

How did you do?

Hi, Yuki.

I think I did really well!

I had more answers than usual!

Oh, really?

-Good for you!
-Thank you!

You have the talent to be good
at anything you want.

It's all thanks to Yuki for tutoring me.

You were so thorough and patient with me.

Thank you so, so much!

Please…

You're too nice.

Look at Yuki's cute smile!

Dammit, I'm too scared of the psychic girl
to get closer!

Hanajima…

You look really smart.

You've got your sensing skills, too.

How did you do on the midterms?

Well… let's see…

I had to attend
the supplementary courses every day,

and my parents were called in.

That's right… I made my mother cry.

Um… what about
your wave-sensing power?

I'm too stupid that
even my power can't help it.

Don't worry, Hanajima.

There's always someone
more stupid than you.

Hey, you better not be talking about me.

Huh?

Who else would it be?

I've never had to take the extra courses,
or had my parents called in before!

Kyon-Kyon is surprisingly smart.

"Surprisingly"?!

Really? But he sucks at competition.

I'm going to k*ll both of you.

I was wondering why Kyo had been
locked up in his room lately.

He was studying the whole time.

Sounds like it.

Thinking about him studying
makes me smile.

Honda.

-Come over here.
-Okay.

-What happened?
-Oh, um…

Well… I'll do my best at work!

Let's do it!

All right!

I'm glad that your exams are finally over.

Thanks!

It'll be spring break,
then a new semester.

Time really flies.

You're right.

I'm supposed to go to your house today.

You are?

I have a little gift.

A gift? What could it be?

It's…

Actually, I'm going to make it a surprise
until we get back.

I can't wait!

Good evening!

We're home!

-There you guys are.
-Welcome back.

It's my first time here.

How exciting!

Ugh, the annoying one…

You're looking squeaky clean, Kyo!

I don't know why
but you're getting on my nerves.

Kyo is being mean to me!

So, Momiji…

Have you told them why you're here?

No, not yet.

A question for Tohru!

{\an }What day is tomorrow?

{\an }NEXT TRASH DAY
MARCH

{\an }The th?

WHITE DAY

Correct! Tomorrow is White Day!

So, you get a vacation to the hot spring!

It's Tohru's Steamy Heart and Mine.

You don't need to name the vacation.

Which hot spring are you going to?

The one under the Soma estate.

Oh, that one.

I shouldn't go on such an extravagant trip
without my mother.

Tohru, it's only a visit to a hot spring.

It's not as if you're going to Paris.

However…

Your Mutti would be happy
to see you happy too.

Aren't you happy right now?

I am very happy.

I feel fortunate.

Yuki and Kyo, you're coming with us!

That's not something
to joke about so casually!

Huh? Come on, please? Let's go.

What about you, Yuki?

I'll come.

It sounds nice.

See? Yuki's coming!

More the reason why I don't want to!

Sorry to change the subject, but…

I heard you haven't turned in
last month's payment for the school trip.

Your grandfather called this evening.

Apparently, he received a call
from your teacher.

He said he'd pay for it.

Oh no, he doesn't have to do that!

Stuff came up last month, so…

But… don't worry. This month I got it.

And I told my teacher that.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

What happened last month?
Weren't you working as usual?

Was it the Valentine's Day chocolates?!

Where's the school trip to?

It's still undecided.

ANGER

What's wrong?

The shower is available for you.

What? Um, okay.

Excuse me, then. Off to the bathroom.

I'm proud of you controlling your anger.

We should've known…

Of course she had to pay
for all those chocolates.

How did we not think of that?

Because she hides everything
under her stupid smile!

Can't blame ourselves for this.

Why would she create more trouble
for herself just for some casual gifts?

She should be using her money on herself!

She's so stupid! This is how
people get cheated out of life.

She's going to waste
most of her life caring for others.

Hey, guess what?

I went to a class reunion yesterday.

Someone brought a book there.

It was called
"A Series of Funny Stories."

One of the episodes in the book

was called
"The World's Most Foolish Traveler."

It's about a fool of a man
who travels around the world.

He's a fool because he's easily fooled.

I need money for my medicine.

He always lets everyone
take advantage of him.

I need money to seed my farm.

People take his money, clothes, shoes,
and everything he owns.

But because he's a fool,

helping these people makes him cry in joy,

and he wishes them the best
in their lives.

But eventually, the traveler
is stripped down to nothing.

So he decides to stay in the forest
to hide from society.

There, he encounters many beasts.

The beasts want to eat him.
So they deceive him with words.

Of course, the traveler is easily fooled.

First he gives up his leg,
then his arm and so on.

He is eventually left with just his head.

He gave up his eyes to the last beast.

After the beast devours
the traveler's eyes,

it leaves behind a gift in exchange.

But the gift wasn't a gift.

It was a piece of paper
with the word "fool" written on it.

FOOL

However…

The traveler starts crying.

"Thank you so much."

"I've never received a gift before.

I'm so happy.

Thank you so much."

The tears are streaming down his face
from his empty eyes.

And then, the traveler quietly dies.

All my classmates laughed.
They thought it was a stupid story.

But I closed my eyes and thought about it.

About a man who had been fooled
until only his head was left to him.

Yet he still cried from gratitude.

It made me think…

how endearing the traveler is.

It's a waste to dwell
on the negative things of life.

The traveler sure didn't care about them.

People might think
that's a fool's attitude, but I don't.

That might make someone
an easy target to take advantage of,

but I just don't see it that way.

I just want to see people happy.

What about you guys?

Do you think that's foolish?

What do you see when you close your eyes?

Oh… she is so…

I'm going to go…

-Kyo, good morning.
-to the hot spring.

I'm coming too.

I don't have anything
to give you in return, though.

But I'll come
even if Yuki's going to be there.

I mean, I know it doesn't matter to you
whether I come or not.

It would be so much more fun
if you came with us!

I'm so glad!

Thank you! I'm so happy!
Thank you so much!

You are…

you really are…

too much to handle.

Kyo, it's way too early
in the morning to be blushing!

-I'm not!
-Yes, you are!

-What's going on?
-Shut up!

Good morning!

Kyo said he'll go
to the hot spring with us!

Blushing!

Shut up! Enough already!

Well… I guess that's fine.

-I'm so excited!
-Me too!

It's time for the hot spring vacation!

SOMA HOT SPRING

What a beautiful inn!

The interior is nice, too!

A vacation for a White Day gift…

I feel like a princess!

Princess Tohru!

It's only a trip to the hot spring…

Wel--

Welcome…

to our inn…

-The Madam!
-She's the landlady.

Please make yourselves at home!

I'm sorry I scared you.

It's okay.

She's from the Soma family too.

She's also in treatment for her sickness.

Oh, please don't strain yourself overmuch.

My oh my, how sweet of you.

I wish Young Master Shigure was here too.

He has a couple of deadlines to meet.

I wonder if she knows about the Zodiac.

Could she also be one of them?

Here we are. Your rooms are ready.

It's so big!

-Your room is next door, Tohru.
-Thank you!

I'm assuming Yuki and I
are in the same room.

You two are still not getting along, eh?

You can use the screen for privacy.

That's not the point!
I don't want to have to--

I know what it is!

Are you saying that
you want a room with Tohru?

Pervert.

What?! That's not what I meant!

Momiji, enough's enough!

Kyo-chan?!

You want to be in a room with a girl?!
I believed in you being a good boy!

I'm scared of how lewd you are now!

I'm scared of you!

I'll be responsible for this!

I apologize to everyone in this world!

I deeply apologize for his lewdness!

Stop! I'm fine rooming with Yuki!

Is she really sick?

Finally, some peace.

-Excited about the hot spring, Tohru?
-Yes!

-Let's bath together!
-Okay!

You're the most lewd one here.

Why?!

But Momiji is still very young, so…

-I'm--
-What?! What are you saying?

Come on, Momiji!

Stop crying!

I want to bath with her!

Momiji.

Don't be so difficult.

You didn't come here
to give Honda a hard time, right?

Yeah… But we're going
to sleep together, right?

He's not getting it!

This is amazing!

I've never been to an outdoor hot spring!

I can see Momiji swimming in this.

Well…

Ta-da!

What do you think, Mother?

Does it feel nice?

My oh my…

Madam!

How's the temperature?

It feels perfect!

Oh, who is that?

Oh, yes…

It's my mother who passed away last year.

I wanted her to enjoy
the hot spring with me.

My, what a touching story.

I was going to mention this earlier…

Just like Yuki and the rest of the boys,
my son is…

cursed by the Monkey
of the Chinese Zodiac.

When I first heard about you, Tohru…

I was actually a little worried.

A non-family member to know
about our family secret.

I was worried that it might worsen
the pains that the boys bear.

And I have to apologize to you
for thinking that.

I know I don't have to worry about you.

If you ever end up meeting my son,

please be good to him, just like you are
with the rest of the boys.

Of course! I hope I get to meet him soon.

What's he like?

I'm so sorry!

I know people don't see him that way,

but to me, he is my only
precious sweet boy!

-I apologize on his behalf!
-I'm sorry!

Sounds like they're having fun too.

Yup, she is Ritchan's Mutti.

Ritchan?

Just like Shigure,
he lives in the outside world.

I'm sure you'll meet him soon.

Great!

Anyway, do you want to play ping-pong?

Those guys won't pay attention to me.

Out.

You have to let it bounce once.

Whatever! That's a stupid way to play it!

It's the game's rule.

Out.

Again, Kyo?

I was going to play along with you,
but it's not working out.

Kyo, you can do it!

Enough of this game!
Let's fight with our fists like real men!

You're the one who wanted to play this.

Well…

How about you play against me?

That sounds like fun!

Just so you know, I'm not going to go easy
because you're a girl.

Okay!

-Okay, you ready?
-Yes!

-Don't forget to let it bounce.
-Shut up!

There.

-I missed!
-Yes, I saw.

You're bad at this.

Kyo, you're not the one to talk!

So you must be really good, huh?

If you do it, do it right!

-What does that mean?
-It means bring it on!

Yuki?

Is something wrong?

Are you sick?

That was funny.

Honda, that was so funny.

You missed that ball so hard!

Sorry!

I wouldn't have minded
if you laughed in front of everyone.

No way, not in front of Kyo.

I've never laughed like this
even in front of my parents.

Oh yeah…

This is for you.

My White Day gift to you.

Oh… Thank you!

I wanted to give it to you sooner,

but I couldn't find the right time.

-Open it.
-Okay.

Took me a while to decide what to get.

I thought that one would look good on you.

Is it to your liking, Your Highness?

Well, yes, of course! I'm touched!

I am…

most honored.

Just kidding.

He's like a real prince.

Mother, there are
many princes at the Somas.

Cool…

Adorable…

And sweet princes.

I feel so fortunate to be able to
spend time with them.

I feel very grateful tonight.

Thank you very much.

I couldn't do as much as I wanted to,

but I hope you guys come back again.

I'm not your crutch.

Please take care of yourself.

You too, Tohru.

Thank you!

Where is the bus
that's supposed to pick us up?

I won't be seeing you as much
outside of work again.

What grade are you going to be in
from April?

-In the seventh grade?
-Nein!

I'm going to be in the tenth grade!

And, I'm going to be attending
the same high school as you!

And so is Haru!

What?!

When did you and Haru take
the entry exam for our school?!

We wanted to surprise you guys!

Are you serious?

How did Haru get accepted
with that hairdo of his?

What's wrong with it?

You may not have realized this, but…

Momiji is just a year younger than us,
so he's the same age as Haru.

I thought he was in elementary school!

And on top of that,
Haru is attending our school too!

I can't decide which part
I'm most surprised about!

All of them!

Sounds like our school life is going to
get even more exciting from the spring.

What do you think of this gift?

I'm going to lose it if she wears this
and calls me "Master."

Just don't get arrested for it.
