EPISODE 18:
"I'LL MAKE IT HAPPEN,

NO MATTER WHAT
WITH THESE TWO HANDS"

CULTURAL FAIR: DAY 1
DAY 2: PAGEANT

[WAKANA] All right,
we're in the final stretch now.

[MARIN] Looks like
everybody's pretty hyped

up about it this year.

Still gotta rainbow up our
rose,

so we need to work quick.

Right.

[spraying]

Mm.

It looks all muddy.

It's multicolored,
so the colors blend

more than they should have.

Should we hit up a florist?

But a real rainbow rose
costs over 1,000 yen.

Maybe we can mask
certain parts.

[KAREN]
Hey!

Found you, Marin.

Oh, wait.
You're in your uniform.

[MARIN] Karen.
- Aw, No suit yet?

and it looks like your boobs
are out and about again.

[MARIN] My boobs?
- Nowa said...

Her suit looks so cool.
Plus, her undies made

her t*tties disappear!

Apparently.

[MARIN] Wow, Nowa sucks
at explaining things.

Maybe it'll work better
if I just paint it by hand.

[KAREN]
You're doing great, Gojo.

Whoa, is that Rei-sama's rose?

Oh, yeah.

Aw, looks like it didn't
turn out as planned.

Because there are
a ton of colors.

It makes it pretty
hard to do, right?

Actually, I know
how to make a rainbow

rose if you need help.

[gasp]

[SIERA]
Yep, yep,

I know exactly how to do it.

Please we would love
for you to teach us!

[SEIRA] Of course,
don't gotta be so feral.

Oh, looks like they
actually sell some nearby.

OK, I'mma go shopping
real quick, so wait

for me in the chem room.

Why the chem room?

I'm back.

Welcome back.

That was fast.

I ran so fast.

I'm a little toasty.

[WAKANA]
Is that a real flower?

Yep, 200 yen.

OK, here we go.

First, you cut the stem.

[DRAMATIC ANNOUNCER]
Cut!

Then, you mix up
the food coloring.

[DRAMATIC ANNOUNCER]
Mix!

Then, you put in the stem
that's been cut.

[DRAMATIC ANNOUNCER]
In!

And make sure the whole
thing doesn't fall over.

[DRAMATIC ANNOUNCER]
Set!

And tomorrow, you'll
have your very own rainbow

rose for a Rei cosplay.

- Seriously?

- It's that easy?

Yep! Even though
it's a real rose,

it should last
through the pageant.

[KAREN] How do you know
how to make these, anyway?

[SEIRA] Back in grade
school, I made one

for my independent
research project.

You, you really saved us.

Thanks for your help.

Aw.

No need for the drama.

I just taught you what I knew.

Seriously, I was about
to buy another fake flower

and paint each petal
individually by hand.

[KAREN]
Individually?

Oh, so, then, does
that mean I totally saved

your guys' butts with this?

You betcha!

You're the best, Seira.

Ooh, glad to help.

Having people ask for your help
is super nice, don't you agree?

[giggling]

[WAKANA]
I'm home.

[MARIN]
Thanks for having me!

[KAORU]
Welcome home.

Dinner's just about ready.

You're the master
chef tonight, gramps?

That's a first for me.

You must be tired getting
ready for the festival.

I'll handle cooking
till it's done.

Wow, thank you.

[KAORU]
Mhm.

[WAKANA] I've always been
nervous to ask anyone for help

because I didn't want to burden
them with my problems.

I worried they'd
resent me for it.

But I was the one
making things harder

by assuming how
other people would

feel before even asking them.

Maybe it's OK for things
to be simpler from now on.

[groans]

This sucks!

We were absolutely crushing
it this morning too,

but Class 3 is smoking us.

Well, the smell
of curry is bound

to draw a crowd at lunchtime.

Hard to turn down
rice when you're hungry.

[TAKERU] Kitagawa,
you sound like some guy

on the baseball team.

Koga, Kensei, time
to switch out breaks.

[BOTH]
Yeah.

[KASHIWAGI] You'll switch
out in a bit too, Kitagawa.

OK.

[KASHIWAGI] Also, Gojo, you
haven't eaten yet, have you?

[WAKANA]
Huh? Oh, I forgot.

[KASHIWAGI] Yeah,
those of us in the classroom

had a feeling you hadn't.

So take this, OK?

Eat it when you have a sec.

[KENSEI]
Any updates, man?

Class 3 is owning us.

If I'm being real here,
we're probably losing again.

Our line's crazy long.

[KENSEI]
Ugh, seriously?

Man, Kashiwagi,
you don't pull punches, do you?

Yeah, he's always
been harsh like that.

It's part of his charm.

[KASHIWAGI]
What?

We can't ignore
the gravity of this situation.

We gotta get more barkers and
kick this sh*t into high gear!

Ain't no way I'm throwing
in the towel already.

[TAKERU]
Oh, who are we fighting?

You better believe we
haven't given up either.

[TAKERU]
I'm heading out.

[KASHIWAGI]
Gojo, you better eat.

[KENSEI]
You his mom?

[WAKANA] Oh, Kashiwagi!
- Hm?

Thanks a lot for the food.

They've got it rough.

Seems like it.

But I'm sure they'll be fine.

[WAKANA] Huh?

You seem pretty
sure about that.

Well, of course, I am.

Everyone's working super hard.

And I'm going to take
first place in the pageant.

In the show,
Rei-sama always puts

herself last in order
to make sure every one

of her princesses'
dreams comes true.

That's something
I really love about her.

So I mean it when
I say I want nothing

more than for her to be happy.

The princesses who visit
her all work hard to make

Rei the number 1 host.

The reason we love "PrezHost"
as much as we do is

because everyone's
so supportive

of one another no matter what.

So that's why I'll win
first place for everyone.

There's no way we'll lose.

I'll be up on that
stage decked out

in this cosplay
you put your heart

into with the perfect
makeup you did.

I'm definitely going
to win first place.



[WAKANA]
I made it just in time.

[MARIN] Sorry, the line's
been out the door all day.

All good.

Whoa, is it done?

Yup.

[giddy laugh]

[MARIN] Oh my gosh,
this is absolutely perfection.

[WAKANA]
I'm fine if people come in

when we put on the outfit.

But when it comes
to her makeup,

I need to concentrate

so my hands are steady.

Kitagawa, let's get started
on your makeup right away.

OK!

Marin, how goes
the prep, girl?

You all finished
with your makeup?

[NOWA]
Don't look it.

It's been five-ever
since you've worn contacts.

Yeah, it's been a while, huh?

[pants] YesI made it
before you finished.

Gojo, do you mind if I watch?

Huh?

Sorry, Gojo, she's our last
hope of winning first place,

so we're counting on you.

[WAKANA]
Uh, right.

Murakami,
you wanted to watch, yeah?

[MURAKAMI]
Koga!

Hey, Gojo.

Gojo.

[DAIA]
I'm so excited.

[RUNE]
Right?

[WAKANA] I picked the sewing
practice room because no one

comes in here. So why?

Cosplay makeup is totally
different from regular

makeup, right?

I can't wait to see
how it's done.

Yeah, I was curious
about that too.

[WAKANA]
Calm down.

Deep breaths.

I need to hurry.

I only have an hour
to finish everything.

Food's here,
and I'm the appetizer.

We bought a bunch of stuff,
so let's all eat together.

[KASHIWAGI] We got you two food
that you can eat one-handed.

Thanksies.

[WAKANA] The cosplay event
had a lot of people too,

but I could
of concentrate then.

I need to get it
together and focus.

I have to do my best.

If I mess this up, then--

mess up?

We're counting on you!
Do your best, dude!

You're the only one who
can make the outfit, Gojo.

Ain't no way I'm throwing
in the towel already.

[WAKANA]
Everyone's putting their all

into winning first place.

If I screw this up, we'll lose.

It'll be my fault.

[MARIN]
Gojo?

You OK?

I'll be up on that
stage, decked out

in this cosplay
you put your heart

into with the perfect
makeup you did.

I'm definitely going
to win first place.

[WAKANA]
Yes.

This work.

So I'm glad that
you like them.

Very glad. [laughs]

You do an incredible job.
You have to know that, right?

[WAKANA] It feels good when
my work is complimented,

but that can't be
the reason I do it,

though I fear the real
reason I keep pushing

is equally as shallow.

I can't let them down.

I can't let them down.
I can't let them down.

I was put here
to make Rei shine.

It's my duty.

[WAKANA]
I understand now.

This is my role.

I was put here to help Kitagawa
shine, to help her get first.

For her, I'll make it
happen no matter what.

With these two hands, I'll do
my best, so she can do hers.

Well, Madam Prez,
how do you feel?

[SC PRESIDENT]
I'm having a lot of fun.

[EMCEES] I bet you are.

Let's keep the ball
rolling, shall we?

Next up is entry number


It's Marin Kitagawa.

Ta-da!

Rei.

Rei-sama!

[crowd gushing]

It sure sounds like
the ladies like her.

Our school's hottest
guy ain't a guy!

I can die happy.

All right, 1, 2,
Marin for the win!

[SC PRESIDENT]
Rei-sama, it's like she

stepped out of the anime.

I need to calm down.

I have to be a fair judge.

That's the loudest
you've cheered.

Good grief, I need
some earplugs.

You must be Rei-sama
from "PrezHost," yeah?

I'm big into the idol scene.

So when I saw Yuichi was
playing Koyomi in the drama,

I had to watch it.

[EMCEE 2]
Good for you.

[WAKANA] How do you
do it, Kitagawa?

You're always so dazzling
like a shining star.

Is that radiance something
she was born with?

Her fair skin, her big
eyes, her little nose,

her lips, those slender
fingers, I can't look away.

Whatever this feeling
is, I can't fight it.

It's coming from
deep inside my soul.

It's new.

But for some reason,
it's so familiar.

[EMCEE 1] Your costume
is spectacular!

[WAKANA]
She's just so--

[EMCEE 1] Is there
anything specific

you'd like to call
our attention to?

Everything that you see
is the work of Wakana Gojo.

[soft music]

[EMCEE 1]
Very nice.

Thanks for the insider scoop.

Last but not least, it's time

[KASHIWAGI sighs]
What a day!

We crushed the other
classes in the pageant

and won first place overall.

Hip-hip!

[CLASS]
Hooray!

You two are
totally going down

in school history for this!

You're like class celebs!

I was moved
to freaking tears, dude!

We're surrounded.

Yay!

I'm glad you liked it.

[CLASS]
That's an understatement.

I still don't get how
a couple teensy pieces of tape

transformed your eyes.

Same!

It's practically makeup magic.

[CLASSMATE 1]
The champagne call was genius.

It really brought Rei to life.

[CLASSMATE 2]
Big time!

If I make karaoke
reservations,

would you all be
down to party there?

[CLASS]
Yeah!

A party?

You're coming,
aren't you, Gojo?

Huh? Ah, well, it was Kitagawa
who won the pageant for us.

And I didn't have time
to help with the decoration

because I was busy
fixing the suit.

I don't deserve to--

[TAKERU]
What are you talking about?

We can't party without
the star of the show.

The pageant was the only
reason we beat Class 3.

Without you, we would
have been toast, bro.

You have to come, Gojo.

I have, like, a bajillion
makeup questions to ask you.

[KENSEI]
Say you'll come with, man.

[WAKANA]
Yeah, I will.

[NOWA singing in Japanese]

I didn't know you
used a special eyeshadow

that you can't sweat off.

I needed that
at the sports festival.

Most other guys
wouldn't get this,

but sometimes I feel like I
care about Tsumugi's happiness

as much as I do my own.

[laughter]

Dude, I totally feel that.

You guys hungry
for anything else?

A melon soda.

Cola and potentially
some food.

Can I please see that?

This song is a Marin special!

I needed a break.

[MARIN gasps]

Hey! You vanished,
so I thought you went home

and I freaked the freak out.

Sorry. I'm not quite used
to places like this.

I needed a breather.

[giggles]
I gotcha.

Don't you think all
your friends in there

are wondering where you are?

Nah. Those goobers have
sick karaoke songs

and yummy soda to worry about.

Nobody is going to care if we
take a much needed timeout.

I guess you're right.

[MARIN] The cultural
festival was a blast.

I'm wiped, though.

[GOJO chuckles] Same.

It was pretty hard,
but it was worth it.

You did an awesome job.

You really became
the character this time.

The way you pulled her
in with your hand on her back

was the perfect balance
of care and force.

Right? Um, actually, I've
deduced a pull of the waist

is the quickest way to make
a girl's heart skip a beat.

You OK?

OK? Yup. Of course, I am.

[nervous giggle]

[WAKANA] This place is
really impressive.

Looks like they have a lot more
to offer than just karaoke.

[MARIN] You've never been here?
[WAKANA] No.

[MARIN] Then, we've got
to check out the arcade.
