01x12 - It's not that I like you, yet.

Post by bunniefuu »

Okay, see you later.

Sure.

Study session, right?

Good luck.

Don't go back to sleep.

Don't worry. I set an alarm.

So you're definitely going to.

Bye.

Seems like things are back

to normal between you two.

Glad to see that.

Sorry for causing trouble.

Okay, then, as an apology,

you have to come shopping with me.

Shopping?

I want to redecorate my room.

That came out of nowhere.

Sorry, but not today.

I might have something important coming up.

Talk to you later.

What do you mean, you "might"?

A study group?

Yeah. After school. Want to?

Why?

Well, y'know, midterms are coming up.

You said you weren't too good at math.

I was thinking maybe I could help you.

I'm the top of our grade, remember?

I'm tentatively the top!

Sounds fun.

Morning!

Morning.

You look cute as always, Erika-chan.

You, too.

It's finally here!

My chance at a rematch!

I embarrassed myself in front of

her on the amusement park date.

We use the sine theorem

to solve this problem.

I never had a chance at making a

good impression on the foreign soil

that is the amusement park to begin with.

But here, at a place I'm familiar with,

I can play to my strengths

and show off my studiousness.

Does that help?

Yeah, that was really easy to understand.

You're really dependable, Umino-kun.

This is definitely my best chance.

Isn't it?

Is Umino all right?

Maybe he's lost his mind

from studying too much.

I'm here.

Shall we?

TOKYO CENTRAL LIBRARY

I've made a huge mistake!

We can't talk in the library!

Why didn't I notice something so obvious?!

I must be stupid!

How's it going?

How's it going?

Terrible

Terrible.

I guess that was funny.

But this isn't bad, either.

It's like we're having a

secret conversation, huh?

It's like we're having a

secret conversation, huh?

It's fun.

It's awesome!

It's awesome!

Closed for the day.

I only ended up studying for an hour!

Wh-What do I do?

I can't just call it a day now.

Where else can we go to study?

The park?

No way.

The family restaurant?

What would I order?

The café?

How much is it going to cost?!

I've never even really been to one.

Crap, what do I do?

Hey, Umino-kun

Do you still have time?

Kickboxing / Karate

I'm ready.

Okay, should we start?

Wait a second

Where are we?

I've gotten into kickboxing lately.

I see

What is your goal, exactly?

I don't have one, really.

It's just a hobby.

I-I see.

You were staring at my breasts

just now, weren't you?

N-No! I wasn't! I wasn't!

Although I can't promise that I wasn't

Next time, I'll slap you.

Yes, ma'am!

Wait, you mean you'll let me

look if I let you slap me?!

Okay, Umino-kun, put these on.

There.

Ready whenever.

Okay, let's start with a light warmup.

Keep it coming.

Can you keep up with me

if I go all-out, Umino-kun?

I think you underestimate me, Segawa-san.

Sorry!

I took it too far.

I'll go get you a drink.

No, I'm all right

Segawa-san never ceases to impress me.

She really can do anything.

I can do this, too.

This is kinda fun.

Umino-kun, that was amazing!

Was it?

Yeah! Nice punch!

Give it another one.

Nah, I just came to watch.

That was pretty impressive for a first try.

Was it?

I wasn't counting on having that much fun.

Sorry to keep you out so late.

Thanks for coming along with me.

No, I should thank you.

I ended up having all the fun.

I'm glad you had fun.

N-No, I mean

I asked you out hoping to

take the lead this time.

I made you make all the decisions

at the amusement park.

That's not true.

I wanted to take you out.

I wanted you to get to know me better.

Well, I'm heading off.

Let's do this again.

226!

227!

228!

229!

230!

That's legit creepy.

231!

232!

Erika-chan, what's gotten into him?

233!

234!

Dunno.

235!

Idiot.

236!

I'm home.

Nagi-kun.

You're going on a date with me.

What?

Wow, that's great!

It looks so good on you.

Does it?

Will you be buying this, as well?

Yes. He'll wear it home.

Understood.

Thank you for your loyalty.

It's expensive, but does

it even look good on me?

Well, shall we?

Good for you.

You're lucky you have me to dress you up.

You finally get an upgrade

from your default house wear.

I like it. It's comfortable.

What?

Nothing.

What's going on, anyway?

What do you mean?

Why a date all of a sudden?

Oh, that

I thought it'd be nice for a change.

Huh?

To make an alibi for your parents, you mean?

It might be that.

Or it might not.

That's not an answer!

Let's see, our next date plan is

What is she scheming?

Good for you, Nagi-kun!

It really likes you.

How is this "liking" me?!

And why are we at a pet shop?!

I've had a thing for reptiles ever

since that gecko I met in the house.

I'd love to have a pet python, too, if I could.

You have plenty of those dog things already!

Dogs and snakes are cute in different ways.

Look, Nagi-kun!

This one's cute, too!

A king cobra!

It's looking right at you.

Maybe it likes you.

Excuse me! Could you please bring this one out?

Stop! Stop! Stop!

Reptile Club

No animals, either

Seriously, what?!

I know!

Come on, Nagi-kun! Hurry up!

Keep up with me!

What is her deal right now?

This isn't even a date anymore.

It's just training.

So strange

I thought this would work out well.

"Work out" how?!

I hate running!

I hate running, too.

So why are you acting so out of character?

Well, you like sports, don't you?

Do I look as if I like anything

other than studying?!

Really?

So why were you kickboxing, then?

I saw you.

On a date with Hiro-chan.

Huh?

S-So what?

What do you mean, "so what"?!

You had such a pervy smile, too.

No way! I did?!

You sure did!

A huge, pervy grin.

That's embarrassing.

You looked all skeevy and happy.

I have a crush on her. What do you expect?

That's what I hate.

You never smile at me.

I'm totally lost.

You were rooting for me

and Segawa-san until now.

That was that, and this is this!

Or it was what it was, I guess.

It was what?

I mean, hearing about Hiro-chan and

actually seeing her were totally different.

Huh?

Why are you getting so cozy

with another girl, anyway?

Aren't you enjoying your date with me?

You're my fiancé, aren't you?

Is that why she invited me out today?

Well?!

Wait, hang on a second.

Are you saying you saw me on a date

with Segawa-san and got jealous?

What do you mean, "jealous"?

Like, I mean

Do you like me?

What?!

Are you stupid?! No, you're definitely an idiot!

Idiot!

But it's true, isn't it?

You got pissed.

That's jealousy.

I mean, if I saw Segawa-san

on a date with someone else

Sorry I didn't notice.

No! No!

But I

You're wrong!

It's not that I like you!

Yet!

"Yet"?!

I'm going home!

Hey, wait!

Erika-chan, welcome home

Erika-chan?

What did she mean by "yet"?

Does that mean she's going

to like me eventually?

I think I like you, Nagi-kun.

What?

Why is my heart racing?

Do I like Amano-san?

No, that's impossible.

I already have Segawa-san.

Though why do I like Segawa-san

in the first place?

What a foolish question.

She's popular, cute, and smart.

More than anything,

she's my aspiration and my rival.

So it's fun being with her, and I admire her.

That's what it means to love someone.

Right?

What does "love" even mean?!

Love definition

[noun, verb]

- To be attracted.

- To find emotionally agreeable.

admire, adore

It doesn't really help just reading the words.

The internet's not going to help.

Umino-tei Diner

Thank you!

Thanks for dinner!

Night!

See you soon.

Hey, it's Nagi.

Hey, are you here to help?

No, I'm busy right now.

It's the first time we see him in ages,

and that's all he's got for us.

He's in his usual boar mode.

It's around here somewhere

I felt embarrassed for you, just reading it.

What?!

That's a lot of letters, though.

It is.

They're memories of love.

Memories?

Why are they all from you, though?

Well, because

Namie-chan was the popular girl

at the local girls' school.

The moment I saw her, I fell in love.

I immediately went on the offense.

Namie-san! Please accept my letter!

Please!

Another one?

I told you I'm not interested in you.

I'm begging you!

Oh, fine.

I'll take it.

You're so weird.

And here we are now.

So this mountain of letters

True love.

Is this how big of a deal

it is to fall in love?

Could I do the same thing

for Segawa-san, then?

Wait Could I?

No, I would, right?

What's the matter?

Are you having doubts about your love?

When that happens, you gotta ask your heart.

Your heart?

That's right. Close your eyes.

And picture in your mind

Who's the precious one calling your name?

Don't think! Feel!

Be quiet!

Well? Do you see anything?

Umino-kun.

Nagi-kun.

Onii.

That's your future bride.

Well?

You saw Erika-chan, didn't you?

I saw all three of them!

Anyway, your romance is just getting started.

Don't rush it so much.

What?

Idiot.

Umino Nagi

I don't like you, either.

Yet.

I guess I'll just leave it at that.
