02x08 - Miko Iino Wants to Control Herself/Kaguya Doesn't Scare Easily/Kaguya Wants to Be Examined

[bunniefuu]

The new student council convenes!

"PRESIDENT" The new student council convenes!

"VICE PRESIDENT" Former student council members are reprising their previous positions.

"TREASURER" "ONLY HANDS" Former student council members are reprising their previous positions.

"SECRETARY" Former student council members are reprising their previous positions.

With the addition of Miko Iino as the financial auditor,

this newly-formed student council...

"FINANCIAL AUDITOR" this newly-formed student council...

...is a toxic environment.

One blatantly breaks school regulations.

Others commit unspeakable acts in the student council room!

This is intolerable!

Do you realize you're representatives of this academy?

Please learn from Fujiwara's example!

Fujiwara broke school rules, too.

"Go Sweet"!

Fujiwara is an artist, so it's different.

"MIKO IINO WANTS TO CONTROL HERSELF" It could help develop her artistic skill.

"MIKO IINO WANTS TO CONTROL HERSELF" So, you make allowances for her?

Besides...

President is the one who brought the manga in!

Instead of setting a good example for everyone, you're undisciplined!

Do better!

Iino, a moment?

Being a first-year newcomer here, you may not understand,

but President's conduct always sets a good example for us.

I don't accept your assessment.

"RUMBLE RUMBLE" Does a "good example" engage in that kind of behavior in the student council room?

"RUMBLE RUMBLE" I'd call that nothing less than an extreme lack of common sense.

"RUMBLE RUMBLE" That was a misunderstanding.

No matter how much you two like each other,

choose a more appropriate time and place to display it!

We like each other?

I-Is that what it looks like?

Yes, it does! You're taking your love too far!

Taking our love too far...

She really is a good girl!

In any case, the next time someone misbehaves, I'll use my authority

as a member of the Disciplinary Committee to cr*ck down on you, no questions asked!

Iino, do you realize you only make enemies that way?

I don't care if you're a stickler for the rules.

But what you don't get is the people you're cracking down on have feelings, too.

Not bothering to consider their feelings or even listen to--

Shut up. I don't want to hear it from you, Ishigami.

But if people who are scolded feel like they're not being heard, they won't listen, either.

If you don't consider their feelings...

Yes. You're right.

I was saying the same thing.

Sometimes strict.

Sometimes soft.

It's important to have a balance when you're reprimanding people.

I see.

Okay, Miko!

To practice being nice, you can't get angry for the next hour no matter what!

I can't get angry?

--That's right! Do your best to grin and bear it! We'll practice together!

--She's already started playing with her junior classmate. --That's right! Do your best to grin and bear it! We'll practice together!

That's the face of someone who's just been given a new toy.

"GRIN" That's the face of someone who's just been given a new toy.

If you insist, Fujiwara... All right.

Okay, Ishigami!

She won't get mad at anyone, so you're free to do as you please!

As I please?

I don't know what you mean.

Free to do as I please is no different than usual.

Feet on the table...

Miko, you can't get mad! Stay on an even keel!

It looks like he's taking something out.

"POTATO CHIPS"

C-Cola and potato chips!

Ishigami's feast has begun! He's doing as he pleases right from the get-go!

Now he's playing a videogame!

U-Unbelievable!

He hooked it up to the TV!

You can't get mad!

This is a trial.

It's only making me madder!

In that case...

...maybe you should try breaking a school rule, Miko!

We're allowed to use phones to make an important call or look something up,

but we can't use apps or social media other than for studying, right?

Yes.

Hold on a second.

Ta-da!

Let's take pictures with all kinds of apps, decorate them and then post on Instagram!

I-I've never done that before.

Miko, unless you sample breaking the rules yourself,

you'll never understand the feelings of rule-breakers!

That's a must.

If you insist, Fujiwara.

Which one is President?

The guy in the pointy green hat.

That's so cute, Miko! Look this way!

Tilt your head up and look over here!

Super cute!

You have no idea how cute you are, Miko!

Throwing the shell in the air is no fair.

It's a technique.

Now, let's have a sh*t of all the girls!

You, too, Kaguya!

No, I'll pass.

Don't be a stick-in-the-mud!

Okay!

Say cheese!

Something's missing.

I know! Let's make weird faces! The weirdest!

--A weird face? --A weird face?

I can't! Not with President watching!

A banana!

He isn't paying attention at all!

Okay, here we go!

"PUFF" "GLARE"

"PUFF" "GLARE" That sucks. Are you two like models who are afraid to be anything but cute?

A weird face is like...

This! Now this is a weird face!

"BLEAH" --Nyaaah! --Forget it!

"SQUEEZE SQUEEZE" L-Like this?

"SQUEEZE SQUEEZE" That's cute!

It's cute?

Certainly, if I look closely and squint, I can't say she's not cute.

I'm aware that I'm unfamiliar with youth culture, but...

Really? This kind of thing passes for cute these days?

L-Like this?

Cute!

Is it really cute?

Super cute!

Really?

It's like vying for second place of the cutest I've ever seen you!

It looks that cute.

--Perfect! You both look so ugly that it's actually cute!

--If Miss Fujiwara is that insistent, I suppose I can believe her. --Perfect! You both look so ugly that it's actually cute!

I'm making this my wallpaper.

President...

Gross.

Hey! Did you just call her gross?

Wasn't that the reaction she was going for?

Nobody wants that reaction!

No, it's okay.

To be honest, I was thinking the same thing.

Now it's your turn!

Give me your weirdest faces.

Why would we have to do it?

Um, Fujiwara...

The photos you took...

Of course, I'll send them to you, too, Miko!

"SMIRK" Even though it's breaking school rules...

"GROAN GROAN"

Today's battle result...

"(MIKO'S AUTHORITATIVE VOICE POWER HAS DROPPED POINTS)" Fujiwara wins.

Cute!

Why?

Kisses don't only happen in fairy tales.

They finally realized that.

" HOURS EARLIER"

That day, the two of them

"KAGUYA DOESN'T SCARE EASILY" went to the sports equipment warehouse...

"KAGUYA DOESN'T SCARE EASILY" ...to inspect the equipment for the sports festival.

This tug-of-w*r rope is pretty frayed.

Apparently, they've been using the same one for years.

Well, it'll make it through years.

Never mind the equipment. They should do something about this warehouse.

No windows, the door sticks...

Imagine getting trapped in here.

Probably, no one would hear us if we called for help.

"NO ENTRY TO UNAUTHORIZED STUDENTS" Did they get locked in because the building is so decrepit?

"NO ENTRY TO UNAUTHORIZED STUDENTS" Or did someone accidentally lock the door?

Either way,

a circumstance like this, in which a couple gets trapped in a sealed room together,

calls for a title...

"The Incident in the Sports Equipment Warehouse"!

It won't open.

It seems we're trapped in here.

Hey! Is anybody out there?

"r*fle amm*nit*on BOX" The word is that this was used during the w*r

"r*fle amm*nit*on BOX" as an amm*nit*on depot and then, a solitary confinement cell.

So I'm sure it's sealed up tight.

I doubt anyone can hear us.

Seriously?

Shinomiya, do you have your phone with you?

Unfortunately, I left it in the student council room.

Same.

A warehouse that's almost never used...

And no way to call for help...

Wh-What should we do, President?

We're doomed!

There's no food or water in here!

Dammit!

President!

Boo-hoo!

As if!

I'm sure she engineered the whole thing.

I mean, there's no way this could happen in real life.

And I can tell those are crocodile tears.

"When the anxiety of a crisis gets mixed up with the excitement of being in love" I bet she's going for the suspension bridge effect.

But I'll pretend that I fell for it and act all nervous.

Oh, what a disaster!

Boo-hoo-hoo!

How cute, President.

Pulling an obvious ploy like this.

--There's no way the door would just lock right after we talked about it.

--Oh no! What do I do? --There's no way the door would just lock right after we talked about it.

Your methods are too simple.

But it's unusual for you to be so assertive, President.

I see. I see.

"When the anxiety of a crisis gets mixed up with the excitement of being in love" You mean to use the suspension bridge effect to move our relationship along.

"When the anxiety of a crisis gets mixed up with the excitement of being in love" A pretty shallow way to do it, though, President.

But I'll do you a favor and play along with your scheme this time.

President, I'm scared!

Dammit! What's going to become of us?

Why won't it open?

Is anyone out there?

They're both behaving as if they're in serious trouble.

However, they actually are in serious trouble!

--Both of them assume their predicament is a trap set by the other,

--Somebody! --Both of them assume their predicament is a trap set by the other,

--so neither is aware of the seriousness of the situation.

--Anybody! --so neither is aware of the seriousness of the situation.

--In fact, they're both excited about the opportunities provided by the trap!

--Anybody! Hey! --In fact, they're both excited about the opportunities provided by the trap!

President, we're not going to be saved.

It'll be all right. I'm here.

President...

Taking advantage of the situation by grabbing my sleeve so adorably...

"HEH HEH" Taking advantage of the situation by grabbing my sleeve so adorably...

What an actress!

"GRIN GRIN" You touched me! You touched me!

Right at the critical moment, you touched a young lady's soft fair skin, President!

The sun has begun to set.

Still, he's really dragging this out.

He must be prepared for the long haul.

But then, President...

I suspect that ultimately, Shinomiya...

...means to do this!

"SMOOCH" ...means to do this!

"RUSTLE" ...is aiming for that!

It's a cowardly plan that means to pressure a girl

when she's in a psychologically weakened state!

I definitely won't fall for it!

But...

Well...

"HMPH" Just for reference, I'll stick around to see what kind of move he'll put on me.

Just for reference, I'll stick around to see what kind of move he'll put on me.

The truth is, neither of them tried to trick the other. However...

"THUMP THUMP" ...they're both convinced

that the other is passionately putting the moves on like never before,

and they can't hide their excitement!

That excitement leads to purposeful action!

"WARM ME UP" That excitement leads to purposeful action!

"WARM ME UP" Is it nighttime by now?

"WARM ME UP" It's starting to get chilly.

She's more brazen than I would've imagined!

Shinomiya...

"WHUMP"

"THUMP" S-Suddenly?

I thought there would be more of a lead-in!

So, this is what you want, too, huh?

That's what President wants!

Is that what she expects?

I don't intend to...

I don't mean to...

Look out!

I'm scared.

Kisses don't only happen in fairy tales.

Kaguya finally realized that.

I'm scared, but...

What would happen if I closed my eyes right now?

Kisses don't only happen in fairy tales.

Shirogane finally realized that.

How long does it take to check equipment--

Iino!

Thank you!

I was so scared!

S-Scumbag!

Dammit! I can't say it was a misunderstanding this time!

Today's battle result...

They both lose by a narrow margin.

This got stuck in the door.

The whole thing bites!

I wanna die!

Take a look at this!

What is it?

Shinomiya...

You've got lint in your hair.

Where?

Right here.

Oh, so I did.

How silly am I for not noticing?

Recently...

I've kind of been...

...feeling...

Shinomiya?

Shinomiya!

My chest...

Ishigami, call for an ambulance!

I already am!

Iino, get the school nurse!

O-Okay!

Kaguya didn't have a very strong constitution to begin with.

She gets sick every time the seasons change, and she has to take time off.

I believe her mother passed away from heart disease.

Shinomiya...

"DR. SHOZO TANUMA"

"CHAPTER KAGUYA WANTS TO BE EXAMINED" Dr. Tanuma is making the rounds.

Shozo Tanuma.

Considered to be one of the world's top ten doctors,

he's a master cardiologist and the world's leading expert

on pediatric cardiac bypass surgery.

The man who even performed heart surgery on the prime minister

is also the Shinomiyas' family doctor.

Professor...

What? The Shinomiya girl?

I'll go see her.

But you have the prefectural governor's party.

I don't care.

Shozo Tanuma recalls a scene from the past.

A girl who didn't look forward to anything. Her eyes were as cold as ice.

And...

What goes around comes around.

Is it arrhythmia?

Suddenly, my heart started b*ating fast,

and then, I had chest pain so bad that I thought I was going to die.

Is it some disease?

Going by what you've told me, I have a pretty good idea what it is.

Miss Shinomiya, please don't panic. Just listen to what I have to say.

All right.

I believe you're suffering from lovesickness.

Is that the name of some heart disease?

No, it refers to the emotion you feel when you're in love.

I guess even doctors make jokes.

I'm not joking.

Then, what?

Are you saying I collapsed and was taken here by ambulance because I'm in love?

Yes. I was a bit disturbed, too, as this is a first for me.

Please don't be ridiculous!

Someone may well be in love with me,

but you can rest assured that I'd never do anything as idiotic as fall in love!

--She's a bit of a contrarian.

--Just how did you arrive at that diagnosis? --She's a bit of a contrarian.

--Just how did you arrive at that diagnosis? --The kids call it "tsundere" these days.

Are you saying that is also a disease?

Let's review your symptoms.

When you think about a specific person during school activities,

your heart starts b*ating fast.

Yes, that's right!

And today, when he removed a piece of lint from your hair, his hand brushed your cheek,

" CUTS BEFORE" And today, when he removed a piece of lint from your hair, his hand brushed your cheek,

" CUTS BEFORE" and just then you felt a pulsating pain in your chest and became short of breath.

" CUTS BEFORE" Yes, I know what I said!

That...

...is love.

And I said you're wrong! Jeez!

"JEEZ" And I said you're wrong! Jeez!

It has to be a heart disease!

This has never happened to me before!

Then, it's your first love.

Lady Kaguya...

"GROAN GROAN"

"GROAN GROAN" I'll be waiting outside, so please call me when you're done.

"GROAN GROAN" Hayasaka?

"AAAH" I use this hospital, too, but I'll never be able to show my face here again.

"AAAH" This is the worst.

"AAAH" Wh-What's wrong with you?

Anyway, please give me a proper examination!

This is our newest medical testing device.

As it's state-of-the-art medical technology, the fee is rather steep,

but do you wish to proceed?

Compared to my life, I'm sure the cost will be cheap!

The measurements are done.

And?

She has a beautiful, healthy heart.

That can't be!

"FISSS" There must be one or two holes in it!

"FISSS" If there were, you'd probably be dead by now.

Then, what?

Being in love is enough to make you topple over when someone touches your cheek?

I admit it made me feel somewhat pleased, but to then hit the floor,

I would have to love President to death!

Incidentally, do you have a photo of him?

I do, as a matter of fact. Hayasaka...

Quit doing that and bring my phone over!

You don't have a normal photo of him?

But...

...he seems to be an interesting boy. A good match for you.

A good match...

Do you not wish to date this fellow?

Honestly, it's not like that!

I just think President is an ideal human being, that's all.

When you say he's a "good match,"

that does nothing for me.

Her pulse is over .

It's b*ating like a jackhammer.

Stop it! Stop using the latest technology to expose my mistress's emotions!

Have you noticed any changes in her state of mind recently?

The other day, she nearly kissed him.

Since then, it's been at the front of her mind!

So, that's what it is.

Hey, Hayasaka! That has nothing to do with this!

It has everything to do with it!

That was genuine terror!

When he was on top of me,

my mind went blank,

and I didn't know what to do, is all!

I'm not self-conscious around him, I'm afraid of him!

I know how you feel.

Back in the day, I fell in love, too.

Well, of course, I haven't outgrown that, but...

I don't want to hear about that!

That doctor is a quack!

How could you say that about one of the world's top doctors?

I'm going to get a second opinion! At another hospital!

Please, don't humiliate me anymore.

Today's battle result...

Hayasaka loses.

Kaguya!

Thank goodness you're okay!

Shinomiya, are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

You have a bad heart?

No, I'm told it's beautiful and healthy.

Then, there's another problem?

Have you made a complete recovery?

She has not.

What caused it?

This.

Jeez!

It's all your fault!

But Kaguya couldn't tell him that.

"Nayotake, your daughter is doing fine"
