Ah!
You

What

Eh?
Yeah.
What are
you

What

Should I take your bag for you
?
Did

I
'll be
fine.
Do you want me to carry the luggage
?
We
're
finally
here!
I
t’s
fine.
There’s not that much.
This place is
pretty quiet
.
We
’ve
finally
arrived!
It'
s quiet
because
we're out in
the countryside.
It seems like a
pretty quiet
place, doesn’t it?
T
he air
's pretty
clean
here, though
.
I don’t know if it’
s quiet
, or
because
it’s
the countryside.

It

health.
But, I know t
he air
is really
clean

Yeah
.
It

Let's see, there should be a bus from Yamabiko station...
Yep
.
Ayumu, we're getting on that!
Let’s see... So, there’s a bus stop at Yamabiko Station.
Okay.
Ayumu, let’s get on that one.
I'm glad we didn't have to wait for a bus.
All right.
Yeah.
Thank goodness the bus came at such a good time.
Onii-chan, you
'

Yep.
Yeah, Dad
brought
me here
before
.
Onii-chan, you

me here
.
Yeah.
And
like your last time,
we

What's the place like?
so we’ll get a nice welcome there, right?
I
'
ve only stayed
there once, so I don
't really
remember
.
Yep.
Let's see
...
So, what kind of place is it?
It
was an old
building
...
Eh?
And a beautiful river ran in
front of it
.
I
’
ve only stayed
over
there once, so I don
’t remember very well.
There
was also a
lot
of
greenery
in the
yard.
If I
remember
correctly
...
It
was my first time there,
but I
felt
like I'd been there before.
...it
was an old
style
building
, just like always.
Dad
is apparently
friends with the previous
inn
owner,
In
front of it
was a beautiful river
.
so that
'
s why they
took
us in.
There
were
lot
s
of
plants
in the
garden.
Even though it
was my first time there,
it
felt
nostalgic.

I think this bus is

I think this bus is
going
in the opposite direction from Yorozuyo.
Look, it says that
Yorozuyo is in the
same
direction
as
Yamabiko.
What?
Onii-chan, the next bus
comes
...
Because
Yorozuyo is in the
direction
of
Yamabiko.
...
an hour later
?!
Onii-chan, the next bus
is
...
The countryside
sucks..
.
...
not going to be here for another hour

The bus
still isn't here.
The countryside
is a scary place
.
And it won't be coming here for a while, either.
The bus
isn’t coming, is it?
L

It’s already been an hour, and it still hasn’t shown up.

Hey

You’re a

What

there?
Yes

I was collecting wild vegetables
!
Ah, so
you
’re

I can make
tempura,
have it on the side, serve it with sour
miso
...
How
embarrassing.
I can put them in
miso soup...
By the way, why
were you
over
there?
It's also
delicious
to have them
with rice
!
I was collecting wild vegetables
.
I-
I see.
..
There’s
tempura,
ohitashi, and su

miso soup...
After

cross this river and head
straight
,
you
'll
come to a
fork in the path.
...and they’re
delicious
with rice
, too!
Once you head
down th

you
straight to
the bus stop
.
I see.
Thanks for taking
the
trouble to show me
the
way.
If
you
go through there, go
straight
until
you
come to a
split road.
You really helped
me
out.
Continue
down th

you

Actually, I did see it, but I didn’t...
What the hell

All right then, I’m coming over too!
Right back at you!
Ah, no, it was an accident!
How dare you take a girl to this deserted place, push her down forcefully, and...
You big
pervert!
...k-k-k...
What the hell
are you doing all of a sudden?
...k-kiss

That should be my line!
I'm telling you, this

You grabbed a girl in a secluded place, forcefully pushed her down, and even k-kissed
her!
What

We wouldn't need

Wh-Why are you at our school?
Y-You! Why are you in our school?!
What do you mean?
What do you mean, "why"?
I just transferred here... What choice did I have?
Well, I transferred here, so I can’t do anything about it, can I?
But we didn't have to end up in the same class!
Even if you transferred, there’s no reason for us to be in the same class, is there?!
Hinata,
don't be ridiculous.
Hinata,
stop stating the impossible.
There's only
one class
per grade level at this school
.
Our school has
one class
for each year

There

There

W-Well, I know that, but
...
Even so
...
Though, I didn't expect a
transfer student
to be
acquaint
ed with Hinata.
However, it’s surprising that our
transfer student
and Hinata are
acquaint
ances.
I don't know this person!
We are not acquaintances.
Then what
is it
?
Then what
’s your relationship
?
Well
, uh

Well

Oh, never mind.
Anyway, it’s fine.

Nice to meet you all.
So, Hoshino’s seat will be...
Well then, as for your seat...
Just wait a moment!
Hold it right there!
Isn’t there a Happy Embarrassing Question Time for our dear transfer student, Mum?
Won't we be getting a minute to ask awkward personal questions, Mom?
Don’t
call me "M

It’s
"Sensei" at school!
I told you not to
call me "M

Isn’t it fine? We

Call me
"Sensei" at school!
Even if we’re mother
and
son, pay attention to where
you

What's wrong with it? You're my p

How ironic. Even now

’re calling

I may be your

I don't

this pervert.
You’re calling me a pervert...
Pervert...?
Isn’t it obvious that’s what you are?
What else am I supposed to call you?
You were on a deserted mountain and ki...
Just because you hop around deep in the mountains doesn't mean you can ki-
No, fell on top of a girl!
It's because you knocked her over!
Eh?! What in the world?!
Say what?!
I-Ibuki-chan!
Ibuki-chan, I told you that was only a misunderstanding...
Didn’t we say that was a misunderstanding?
Wait, you were the one he knocked over?
Don’t tell me the girl he fell on was Ui!
I knew you'd end up in that situation at least once, Nakatsugawa Ui!
That’s our air-headed Nakatsugawa Ui for you!
You're not always getting yourself in troubl-Ui for nothing!
Only our Ui would react like that!
Hey
, stop causing more
misunderstandings!
Hey
! Don’t say things that’ll cause
misunderstandings!
And w

's this
misunderstanding?
W

An accident? Seriously?!
What? An accident? That?
You don't seem to be able to understand me, no matter how many times I try to explain it!
I explained it so many times yesterday! You’re really don’t get it!
I don't even want to understand anything about what happened, or you in genera-
All right, please flip to page 23 of your textbook.
Open up page 23 in your textbooks.
Continuing from yesterday...
All right, this is yesterday's review...
Just for today, I’
ll let you
look at
my textbook.
Kazu-kun.
It’s too dangerous
to let you get any closer to Ui.
If you don't have your own textbook-
Food, food!
I'
ll let you
have a
look at
mine.
I’m so hungry!
Things would only get more complicated if I were
to let you get any closer to Ui.
Ah, Minami K
okubaru-kun.
Ah, it's finally lunch.
Oh, it’s okay to
just call me Daigo.
Feeding time.

bread too, so

Minamik

Hey! What’s up with the "bro"!?
You can
just call me Daigo.
Transferring in and falling on top of a girl so quickly is no easy feat.
Well t
hen

Daigo
...
As a sign of my respect for you, I’m gonna call you "bro"!
I'
d like to
go buy some
bread for lunch
at the cafeteria...
Ui

If you can
’
t wait any
more, why don’t we
just go ahead and eat
?
I'm buying
bread too, so
off to the cafeteria we go, B
ro!
Wait, what's up with the "Bro"?
You can't go knocking girls over in the mountains on a whim.
I shall call you my bro, as a sign of respect and friendship!
Ui

longer, then

It’s pretty unusual for someone as serious about her food as Ui to
actually wait for us.
I can't believe Ui the gluttonous monster would
actually wait for us.
It’
s huge!
That'
s huge!
Ta-da! Today
’s dish is wild mountain mushrooms!
Ta-da! Today
's veggie green rice!
Ui... a
re you
possibly...
going to eat
all that by yourself
?
A
re you
seriously
going to eat
this alone
?
Of course not
! I’ve prepared another side dish as well!
Of course not
. I brought side dishes in a different container as well.
And for dessert, I have the muffins that my mum made!
I even have muffins my Mom baked for dessert.
That’s just the kind of girl Ui is.
This is quite normal for her.
Hey.
Say...
Hmm?
Are those the wild vegetables you were picking in the mountains?
Are those vegetables the ones you picked on the mountain yesterday?
Yup, that's wight.
Yes, they are!
Ui, don'
t talk with your mouth full.
Ui! Don’
t talk with your mouth full.
Now t
hat
you mention it
, why were you there yesterday?
T
hat
reminds me...
Wh-Why wouldn't I be there
?
Ibuki-chan
, why were you there yesterday?
I was
just
taking a walk.
I-It doesn’t matter, does it
?
Oh, I know
!
I was
taking a walk.
You were on the way to the observatory.
I see
!
The observatory?
You went to the viewing platform on the mountain, didn’t you?
Y
up.
There
's an observatory a little way further
up
that
mountain.
Hmm?
We've been going there since were were kids; it's our favorite spot.
Viewing platform?
The view is really nice, and when you scream "You idiot!" at times when you're stressed, you suddenly feel much better.
Y
ep!
There
’s this viewing platform high
up
on the
mountain.
You always shout "Yahoo" whenever you go up there, though, regardless of your stress level.
It’s been Ibuki-chan and my favourite spot since we were kids!
I think it's really encouraging to hear a yahoo coming back whenever I call out; I can't help it.
You see, the scenery there is so amazing that...
Is that so...?
...whenever we’re upset, we go there and shout "Idiot!"
You're going to give me a tour of the city?
It really helps us calm down!
Yeah.
Even if Ui didn’t have any troubles on her mind,
You don't know much about Yamabiko since you just moved here, right?
she’d still go up there and shout "ya-ho!" anyway.
So I
thought I'd
show you around
.
Well, when you say "ya-ho!" and that "ya-ho!" echoes back,
That
would be nice.
it feels like you’re being encouraged and you feel happy!
Then I
'm coming
with you
.
I wonder if that’s really true...
T
here
'
s no telling what you might do to
Ui if I leave you two alone.
Eh? Guide me around town?
Obviously, I'm tagging along.
Yep! Since you only just moved here, Kazu-kun,
All right, let's all go togethe-
you’re not familiar with Yamabiko Town, are you?
In that case, would you mind if I brought my brother with me?
So I
was thinking maybe we should
show you around
town!
Not at all!
That
’d really help!
Brother of my brother, is also a brother of mine!
Then I
’ll go too.
Kazu-kun, you have a
brother?
If I leave Ui alone
with you
, t
here
’
s no telling what you might do to
her.
Yeah.
Of course, I’m going too!
We
moved here
together
. He
's attending
the middle school
here from today on.
Oh, is it okay if I bring my little brother?
Hey
, Ayumu?
What are you saying?!
I wonder what his
brother's like.
If he’s my brother’s brother, then we’re all brothers!
I'm at school right now, what about you?
Kazu-kun, you have a
little
brother?
I'm sure a pervert's brother can't be any
good.
Yeah.
He
moved here
with me
. He
’s going to
the middle school
nearby.
Okay,
sure.
Ah

So

for me?
Okay,
then w

us near
the bridge
at
the
crossroads.
Yes.
Bye

I figured you might get lost on your way home, since you're not familiar with this place yet.
Tsumugi-san.
Thanks for looking out for me.
Eh? You mean
you were waiting
just
for me?
Tsumugi-senpai
cares so much about you!
Yes.
Since you’re not familiar with the surroundings,
All
the
guys at
school
admire her,
you
know!
it’d be a problem if you tried going home alone.
She's
too
good for Kazuma!
Sorry for making you worry about me.
Oh
, but
...
To have
Tsumugi-senpai
, the dream of every male student in
the
school
, looking after
you
....
will Ayumu be
all right
?
Kazuma, you’re
too
arrogant!
No
, I suppose he'll
be fine
since we
'
re
going to
meet
up
at the bridge.
Ah
, but
if you’re here,
will Ayumu be
okay
?
You sure worry about Ayumu-kun all the time.
No
. He should
be fine
,
since we
’
re
meet
ing
at the bridge.
It's okay, though.
My my, Kazuma-san.
I've seen to it that he'll manage just fine.
You’re always putting Ayumu-kun first, aren’t you?
However, it should be fine.
Arrangements have been made on the other side too.

Eh?
I noticed it
when
we were walking to school this
morning
:
I realised
when
I picked you up in the
morning
.
You take smaller steps when
walking with Ayumu-kun
.
When you’re
walking with Ayumu-kun
, your footsteps become a lot shorter.
You're matching Ayumu-kun's pace, right?
You adjust to Ayumu-kun’s pace, don’t you?
You are?
Is that true?
Sorry, I didn't notice at all.
I’m sorry. I didn’t notice at all...
Don't worry, I was doing it of my own accord...
It’s fine. I’m just doing what I feel like, that’s all.
You don
't really have to-
You don
’t need to worry about it...
A-Anyway
, Ui, you said you
were going to
show
me
around
the city
.
M-More importantly
, Ui, you said you
’d
show
us
around
town
.
Where are you
going to take me
?
Where are you
taking us
?
Let
's see
...
Let
me think
...
I guess we
should start
here
!
We
should start
off with this place
!
A convenience store...
A convenience store...
?
It's on the way to school, so a lot of Hiko South students come here often.
It’s on the way back home, so Hikonan’s students frequently come here.
Hiko South?
Is Hikonan...
Yamabiko South High School, a.k.a. Hiko South.
Yamabikoi South Academy, in short, Hikonan.
That's what they call it, the extension of our middle school included.
It’s involved with the judo club we go to.
T
his convenience store
is open from 7
A.M.
to
10 P.M.!
In fact, t
his convenience store
...
Don't you find
it
amazing that
you can buy snacks
after dark?
...
is open from 7
in the morning
to
11 at night!
But
that
's how they do it only
recently.
Even though
it
’s dark,
you can buy snacks
!
Actually
...
Isn’t it amazing?
I wonder when it closed back then...
However,
that
was only put into effect
recently.
How about it, want to go
buy something?
Hmm
...
Nope
, let
'
s go to Ya
hoo if you're going to buy snacks.
What time did it close at before?
Huh? Ya
hoo?
What shall we do?
Yahou
Store...
?
Shall we
buy something?
The correct
way to read it
is
"
Yakata Store.
"
Nope
! If we’re buying snacks
, let
’
s go to Ya

But
everyone
'
s been calling it Ya
hoo, ever
since they were
little
.
Huh? Ya
-ho?
What
exactly
did you buy
in
there?
Ya... ho
Store...
Well
, first
...
The correct
pronunciation
is
Yakata Store.
...
delicious
cheese flavo
red
sticks, you see.
However,
everyone
’
s been calling it Ya
-ho
since they were
young
.
And delicious
cheese flavo
red
sticks.
What
did you buy
there?
Followed up by delicious
cheese flavo
red
sticks
.
Hehe!
Cheese flavo
red, c
heese flavo
red, c
heese flavo
red!
Hmm
, first
would be
...
They're
all cheese flavo
red
!
...
cheese flavo
u
red
umebon.
I like
these, after all.
After that, it would be
cheese flavo
u
red
umebon,
I see.
So t
hat
'
s why it tasted like cheese.
and
cheese flavo
u
red
umebon
.
N-No! That can't be true!
Cheese flavo
ur.
It shouldn't have tasted like cheese...
C
heese flavo
ur!
Huh, really?
C
heese flavo
ur!!
I thought you mixed some cheese into those muffins you shared during lunch. They had a funny taste.
Isn’t it
all cheese flavo
u
red
?!
Y-You're
right!
That’s because
I like
it!
There was some
cream
cheese mixed
in the
batter, yeah
...
I see.
T
hat
’
s why it tasted like cheese.
That'
s a
pine ball
.
Eh?
It's made of pine needles.
That’s not true! It can’t be!
They tend to hang it from their roof whenever they have a new batch of sake ready.
To say it was cheese-flavoured... It can’t be... can it?
You sure know a lot, Tsumugi-san.
Am I wrong? The muffin you gave me during lunch...
I only learned about it from someone else,
though.
...tasted a little unusual.
The girl from
this
store is a friend of mine, and she
told me about it.
Sort of like cheese.
This is also where we get the
sak
e we serve
at
Yorozuyo.
Ah... That’s
right!
There
seem
to be
more stores around here
.
I put cheese
cream
in the
centre
...
So this is
the shopping district.
This i
s a
sugidama
.
All right!
It’s made from the leaves of a cedar tree.
To begin with, this is the flower shop.
When a new batch of sake is ready, they burst the ball to let people know.
The storekeeper
just got married!
Tsumugi-san, you sure know a lot.
The people at
the
bike store further down
just
had a baby.
I learnt it all from other people
though.
And
the owner of the soba
restaurant recently sprained
his
ankle playing
baseball
, so they had to close down.
I have a friend working here at
this
shop.
The
ramen
restaurant on that cor
ner is
famous for its
stubborn
owner.
She was the one who
told me about it.
But
I
highly
recommend
trying
their ramen!
The
sak
e sold
at
Yoroze also
seem
s
to be
from here.
Then I guess we'll give it a shot next time.
It looks like the number of shops has grown
.
Oh, and the only son of the set meal café over there is studying for entrance exams.
So this is
a shopping district, huh?
The book store over here just had five kittens, which are looking for new owners.
Yes!
A
nd the couple running the vegetable
shop that way is
in the middle of a
big fight!
Firstly, the flower shop’s owner
just got married!
Y
ou
know a lot about these things
, Kasane-chan
.
And
the
bicycle shop owner’s wife
just
got pregnant!
Well,
they don't call me the Girl with Devil's Ears of Yamabiko for nothing.
Also,
the owner of the soba
place is rallying people to join
his
baseball
team.
Gosh, Kasane.
And that corner is supposed to be a
ramen
store, but the ow
ner is
known to be
stubborn
.
You can't get enough of those rumors, can you?
However,
I
can strongly
recommend
their ramen!
Where should we go
next?
Really? Then let’s go eat there one day.
The Twin
Mountain
s
!
Of course!
Hey
, we're going hiking?
Apart from that, one of the sons at the café there got into an accident,
I wanted to show Kazu-kun the
observatory!
and the book store over there lost its cat,
The observatory
...
a
nd the couple running the vegetable
store are
in the middle of a
n argument!
So those Twin
Mountain
s are the ones
I got lost
in
yesterday.
Kasane-chan, y
ou
seem to
know a lot about these things
.
You were only wandering around the base,
though.
Well,
I’m proud to say that they don’t call me the "Fast Eared Girl" of Yamabiko Town for nothing!
They call it Twin M
ountain
s because they're like
two mountains
stuck
together.
Geez... It’s all because Kasane really likes gossip...
Actually, there goes a legend about that
mountain
:
Where are we going
next?
Long
time
ago, a god and a goddess
used to
live
a
top
that
mountain.
Futago
Mountain
!
They spent so much time being together
and
ignored
their
duties,
Hey
hey! You want to climb mountains now?
that God, who was angered by
the
ir indolence,
split the
tip
of the mountain,
and
the two
apart.
Eh?!
I wanted to show Kazu-kun the
viewing platform!
That sounds a little like the
Tanabata
folk tale
.
Viewing platform
...
Ever since then,
the two
kept exchanging words
like "I love you" and "I want to see you
."
Ah, so Futago
Mountain
is where
I got lost
yesterday.
..
So
, those are
...
That was just the foot of the mountain
though.
Yes
, they're referring to echoes
.
Futago m
ountain
looks like this...
Their
words bouncing between
the
mountains filled
the
plains.
...as if
two mountains
are joined
together.
Their longing for
each other
brought great harvests for
the
people of the
valley
.
Therefore it’s called Futago Mountain!
That
's said to be the origin
of
the name of
this
place:
Yamabiko.
That
mountain
has a legend...
There's
a festival in
A
utumn
based on
this
tale.
Long
ago, a god and a goddess
live
d on
top
of the
mountain.
We put two fl
oats
on either side of
the bridge,
Love blossomed between the two of them
and
they abandoned
their
work.
and perform a sacred ceremony relaying both of them to the peaks of the mountains.
The angry god of
the
heavens
split the
summit
of the mountain,
That's when at Kotama Shrine-
thereby separating
the two
.
Oh,
right!
It seems like the legend of
Tanabata
.
Let
'
s go to Kotama Shrine
!
Ever since then,
from the top of
the two
mountains,
There's a really
lo
oo
ng
flight of stairs over there!
the two have come to call out to each other,
You were
...
certainly not kidding
.
shouting things
like "I love you" and "I want to see you
".
It
really
is long, Onii-chan.
So
that means
...
Kazu-kun
, it'
s a race to the top!
Yes
. That is Yamabiko
.
Onii-chan,
good luck!
Their
calls to each o
the
r echoed,
Right...
and
the
ir passionate thoughts of
each other
were spread through
the
valleys,
Daigo,
take
this!
and thus a large
valley
was formed
.
S-Sure...
That
’s the story
of
how
this
area was named
Yamabiko.
Those two su
re
are energetic.
Also, we have
a festival in
a
utumn
, to celebrate
this
particular legend.
You can say that again
.
One by one, we throw b
oats
into the river below
the bridge,
Ayumu-kun,
let's take it slowly.
and if it flows into the mountains, your wishes will be granted.
Okay!
That’s
right!
They're like little kids, racing to the top...
Let
’
s go to Kotama Shrine
next!
Kazu-kun, you're pretty fast!
You know, it’s got a veeery

history.
I-I guess.

This must be variation of calling your preschool teacher "Mom," right?
Maybe this is the effect of the "Mama" phenomenon? Similar to the way kindergarten teachers are mistaken for mothers.
Something like me calling my mother "Mom" at school, huh?
In the classroom, my mum would hate to be called that.
It's different in your case.
Isn’t your case totally different?

That

Madoka-chan
does have some issues with men because her

If a guy she's not familiar
with
gets too close to her, she panics just like she did earlier.
So what was all that?
I'm not too sure myself, but I think it's a defensive martial art of sorts.

Should I take your bag for you? I'll be fine. We're finally here! This place is pretty quiet. It's quiet because we're out in the countryside. The air's pretty clean here, though. It'll be good for your health. Yeah. Let's see, there should be a bus from Yamabiko station... Ayumu, we're getting on that! Okay. I'm glad we didn't have to wait for a bus. Yeah. Onii-chan, you've been to Yamabiko before, right? Yeah, Dad brought me here before. And we'll be staying at the Yorozuyo Inn, just like you did on your last visit? Yeah. What's the place like? I've only stayed there once, so I don't really remember. Let's see... It was an old building... And a beautiful river ran in front of it. There was also a lot of greenery in the yard. It was my first time there, but I felt like I'd been there before. Dad is apparently friends with the previous inn owner, so that's why they took us in. I see. Ayumu, what's wrong? I think this bus is heading in the opposite direction from Yorozuyo... Look, it says that Yorozuyo is in the same direction as Yamabiko. Onii-chan, the next bus comes... ...an hour later?! The countryside sucks... The bus still isn't here. And it won't be coming here for a while, either. Look, Onii-chan! What is it, Ayumu? Over there! A monkey! A monkey? Come here! Onii-chan, the monkey's coming this way! Oh yeah, we had some snacks left over... Hey, you! Stop! Onii-chan... You screwing with me?! All right, this shouldn't be too deep... Don't you laugh at me! Damn it, stop running away! Ow... Damn it, you've caused me so much trouble... Onii-chan's taking so long. I'm lost. I hope there aren't bears around here... A-A girl?! Y-Yes, I'm a girl. So that's how you got lost. It's embarrassing. What were you doing there? I was collecting wild vegetables! I can make tempura, have it on the side, serve it with sour miso... I can put them in miso soup... It's also delicious to have them with rice! I-I see... After you cross this river and head straight, you'll come to a fork in the path. Once you head down the path, it'll take you straight to the bus stop. Thanks for taking the trouble to show me the way. You really helped me out. No problem at all. It's only natural to help those in need. Plus, you'd be in trouble if you stumbled across a bear! So there actually are bears around. All right, I'll demonstrate how to get across. Be sure to look! Well? Did you see it? N-No, I-I didn't! W-Well, I did, but... I didn't! A-Anyway, here I go. Wait, this is an unfortunate accident- You damn pervert! What the hell was that for?! Right back at you! How dare you take a girl to this deserted place, push her down forcefully, and... ...k-k-k... ...k-kiss her! I'm telling you, this was an accident. What? An accident? We wouldn't need the police if that counted as an accident! I'm taking you to the police, so you'd better be ready! Wait, Ibuki-chan! He's telling the truth. What happened really was just an accident! Ui... You'll get to the bus stop if you just stay on this path. All right. Well then... Whatever! Just go, you freak! Onii-chan! Huh, Onii-chan? What happened to you? Well... it's a long story. Yorozuyo So this is Yorozuyo. That doesn't look anything like an old building. Well, it's been a long time since I was here... So I guess they rebuilt the place. Welcome to Yorozuyo Inn. Um... we're Hoshino's- Are you Kazuma-kun? Hoshino-sensei's son?! Yes. You took so long that I was getting all worried! I would've driven to the station to pick you up if you'd just called! You must be his little brother, Ayumu-kun! It's true that you aren't very tall. Well, unlike where you used to live, the air is clean, and the food and water is good here. I'm sure you'll feel a lot better quickly. U-Uh... My my, what happened to you?! You should get in the bath... But before that, I'll take you to your rooms. Okay, follow me! I think I'll have you stay in the older section. I don't house customers here anymore, so feel free to treat it like your own home. The baths are at the new section, though. U-Um, Ma'am... Ma'am...? No, uh... Little Miss? You don't have to be that considerate. You can just call me Onee-san. Got a problem? None! Allow us to call you Nee-san! Nee-san? Well, whatever. So, do you have any questions? It's a little late to ask this, but are you the owner of this inn? Oh, I'm terribly sorry! I haven't even introduced myself yet. I'm Yorozu Senka, the owner of Yorozuyo Inn. I'll be taking over from Hoshino-sensei as your guardian starting today. Nice to meet you! This is the old section. This used to be the main entrance, but it's become the back entrance since the new section was built three years ago. Yorozuyo looks like a nice place. Yeah. This is your room, Kazuma-kun. Wow, so this'll be my ceiling. Pretty cool. Your room is on the other side of the corridor, Ayumu-kun. I have a lot of other rooms, but I'm sure you'd want one that's close. Yes. The inn owner in me wants to treat you to some tea first, but I think you'd rather take a bath instead. Yep, it's great how I'll get to use such a huge bath every day! S-Sorry! Hey, what was that for? Oh my, pink. I'll never get married now. Onii-chan, I'm coming in. 'Sup, Ayumu? Nee-san says we should come down for dinner. As a welcoming party of sorts, I have quite the feast for you tonight. The main course will be sushi and sake served on naked women. Whoa, Nee-san! That's just- Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot you can't drink sake because you're underage. No no no, that's not the problem here! All right, here we go! Don't, Ayumu! Don't look! Why? Geez, Kazuma-kun! You actually fell for it! Don't tell me you were looking forward to it? Nee-san... A lot has happened today. I fell from a tree... Got kicked... Saw it... Was seen... Was seen again... And... I should've asked for her name... Onii-chan, are you still awake? Ayumu? What's the matter? Why are you carrying a pillow? Don't tell me you can't fall asleep in this new place alone, so you want to sleep with me? Wait, I'm right? Can I? Fine. But only for tonight. Yep. Okay, I'm turning the lights off. Good night, Onii-chan. Good night. I'm done. You're done already? Yes, I'm full. I see... Morning! Ah, your guide's here. Guide? You still don't know the way to school yet, right? That's why I asked a girl to show you the way. Her name is Toudou Tsumugi. She's a third-year at your school, Yamabiko South Academy. In other words, she's your senpai. Tsumugi has worked in this inn for a long time. Didn't you already meet her yesterday? Huh? Whoa, the girl in the- I-I sincerely apologize for what happened! It's fine, I couldn't really see it. Since it wasn't very big at all, I'm not surprised. That's harsh! So you came all the way to Yamabiko for Ayumu's sake? Ayumu's body is pretty fragile. So my dad figured it'd be better for him to live somewhere where the air's clean. Doesn't your dad write novels? Yeah. Well, my parents are planning on buying a house here and moving in. But they have work and stuff to sort out, apparently. Since there's school and all, they figured it'd be better if we came here earlier to settle in. So that's why we're here first. I see. Ayumu-kun's subsidiary middle school is across this bridge. And this road ahead will take us to our school, Yamabiko South Academy. Ayumu-kun, it's a straightforward path to your school, so you'll get there if you follow people with the same uniform as you. Okay, I'll be fine on my own. Off I go, Onii-chan. Okay, take care. Uh... we should get going. Y-Yeah. Ui. Hey, Ui! What? What's the matter? You're spacing out even more than usual. Don't tell me you were thinking about what happened yesterday. I wasn't! I wasn't thinking about what happened yesterday at all! Really? I hope so. Everyone, quiet please. I'm sure some of you already know this, but we have a new class member joining us today. Hoshino, come in. You're the girl from yesterday! Then that means... The first episode of the new brother-love anime Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi! Did you enjoy it? Nee-san, why did you have to make it sound so weird? It's not weird. Brotherly love is right! Right in a way that doesn't involve sexual jokes! Ayumu-kun, do the next episode preview in the name of justice! Next on Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi. Episode two: This shouldn't taste like cheese. Now which part of the body would taste like cheese... P-Please, look forward to the next episode! ▶ [Tsundere] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 02 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][9480EF6C] Ui, you sure look happy when you're eating. Ui loves cake! And I really, really, really love you too, Onii-chan! Thank you. There's some cream on your mouth, Ui. Oh, right... Yesterday, I... Hoshino, come in. You're the girl from yesterday! Wh-Why are you at our school? What do you mean? I just transferred here... What choice did I have? But we didn't have to end up in the same class! Hinata, don't be ridiculous. There's only one class per grade level at this school. There are no other classes for second-years. W-Well, I know that, but... Though, I didn't expect a transfer student to be acquainted with Hinata. I don't know this person! Then what is it? Well, uh... Oh, never mind. Hoshino, go ahead and introduce yourself. Sure. Hoshino Kazuma I'm Hoshino Kazuma. I transferred here due to certain family circumstances. Nice to meet you all. Well then, as for your seat... Hold it right there! Won't we be getting a minute to ask awkward personal questions, Mom? I told you not to call me "Mom"! Call me "Sensei" at school! What's wrong with it? You're my parent. I may be your mother, but you should learn that there's proper time and place for such things, you stupid boy! Come on, you address me as your son all the time. Don't talk back to me! Too slow! Hoshino, that will be your seat. Huh? Where am I supposed to sit then?! Don't you worry, I have an idea. Kazu-kun, nice to meet you. Since your name is Kazuma-kun, I shortened it to Kazu-kun. Shouldn't I? I don't mind, but... what's your name? Oh, I'm sorry. I'm Nakatsugawa Ui. Just call me Ui. I'm Ibuki. Hinata Ibuki. Pleased to make your acquaintance. L-Likewise... Hinata, you're the class president. Make sure you look after our new transfer student. Of course, I've got it. And now, the moment you've all been waiting for: Question Time! Do you have any hobbies? What's your favorite food? What about your height, weight, sitting height, zodiac sign, and blood type? Are you a virgin, or perhaps- Don't ask me all at once- What's your relation with Ibuki? You know her, don't you? No, he absolutely does not! I don't know this pervert. Pervert...? What else am I supposed to call you? Just because you hop around deep in the mountains doesn't mean you can ki- It's because you knocked her over! Say what?! Ibuki-chan, I told you that was only a misunderstanding... Wait, you were the one he knocked over? I knew you'd end up in that situation at least once, Nakatsugawa Ui! You're not always getting yourself in troubl-Ui for nothing! Hey, stop causing more misunderstandings! And what's this misunderstanding? I told you it was an accident! An accident? Seriously?! You don't seem to be able to understand me, no matter how many times I try to explain it! I don't even want to understand anything about what happened, or you in genera- Open up page 23 in your textbooks. All right, this is yesterday's review... Kazu-kun. If you don't have your own textbook- I'll let you have a look at mine. Things would only get more complicated if I were to let you get any closer to Ui. Ah, it's finally lunch. Feeding time. I'm so hungry right now! Minamikokubaru-kun. You can just call me Daigo. Well then, Daigo... I'd like to go buy some bread for lunch at the cafeteria... I'm buying bread too, so off to the cafeteria we go, Bro! Wait, what's up with the "Bro"? You can't go knocking girls over in the mountains on a whim. I shall call you my bro, as a sign of respect and friendship! Ui... If you can't wait any longer, then just go ahead and eat. But... Kazu-kun, Daigo! Hurry, hurry! I can't believe Ui the gluttonous monster would actually wait for us. That's huge! Ta-da! Today's veggie green rice! Are you seriously going to eat this alone? Of course not. I brought side dishes in a different container as well. I even have muffins my Mom baked for dessert. This is quite normal for her. Say... Are those the wild vegetables you were picking in the mountains? Yup, that's wight. Ui, don't talk with your mouth full. Now that you mention it, why were you there yesterday? Wh-Why wouldn't I be there? I was just taking a walk. Oh, I know! You were on the way to the observatory. The observatory? Yup. There's an observatory a little way further up that mountain. We've been going there since were were kids; it's our favorite spot. The view is really nice, and when you scream "You idiot!" at times when you're stressed, you suddenly feel much better. You always shout "Yahoo" whenever you go up there, though, regardless of your stress level. I think it's really encouraging to hear a yahoo coming back whenever I call out; I can't help it. Is that so...? You're going to give me a tour of the city? Yeah. You don't know much about Yamabiko since you just moved here, right? So I thought I'd show you around. That would be nice. Then I'm coming with you. There's no telling what you might do to Ui if I leave you two alone. Obviously, I'm tagging along. All right, let's all go togethe- In that case, would you mind if I brought my brother with me? Not at all! Brother of my brother, is also a brother of mine! Kazu-kun, you have a brother? Yeah. We moved here together. He's attending the middle school here from today on. Hey, Ayumu? I wonder what his brother's like. I'm at school right now, what about you? I'm sure a pervert's brother can't be any good. Okay, sure. Wait for me at the bridge, then. Later. Tsumugi-san... So you were waiting for me? Yes. I figured you might get lost on your way home, since you're not familiar with this place yet. Thanks for looking out for me. Tsumugi-senpai cares so much about you! All the guys at school admire her, you know! She's too good for Kazuma! Oh, but... will Ayumu be all right? No, I suppose he'll be fine since we're going to meet up at the bridge. You sure worry about Ayumu-kun all the time. It's okay, though. I've seen to it that he'll manage just fine. Mugi-nee! Thanks. You stayed with him, right? Tsumugi-san, who is she? This is my sister, Kasane. She's in the same class as Ayumu-kun, so I asked her to watch over him. So... This is Kazu-kun's... ...brother? N-Nice to meet you, I'm Hoshino Ayumu. So... ...cute! Oh, so you're Ayumu-kun! Y-Yes. But you're not very simila- Hey, Ui! Yeah! Just because you're oblivious by nature doesn't mean you can say anything! What do you mean? Don't you think it's a little strange for his brother to be this cute? Exactly! There must be some complicated family matters behind this. Hey, stop wondering about things in the weirdest ways! We have the same parents! I'm actually related to him by blood! That's a lie! There's no way your little brother can be this cute! Come on! If you really are related by blood as you so claim... ...this must be the result of a genetic prank that God only knows. You people... I knew it. You're very kind, Kazuma-san. I noticed it when we were walking to school this morning: You take smaller steps when walking with Ayumu-kun. You're matching Ayumu-kun's pace, right? You are? Sorry, I didn't notice at all. Don't worry, I was doing it of my own accord... You don't really have to- A-Anyway, Ui, you said you were going to show me around the city. Where are you going to take me? Let's see... I guess we should start here! A convenience store... It's on the way to school, so a lot of Hiko South students come here often. Hiko South? Yamabiko South High School, a.k.a. Hiko South. That's what they call it, the extension of our middle school included. This convenience store is open from 7 A.M. to 10 P.M.! Don't you find it amazing that you can buy snacks after dark? But that's how they do it only recently. Actually... I wonder when it closed back then... How about it, want to go buy something? Nope, let's go to Yahoo if you're going to buy snacks. Huh? Yahoo? Yahou Store...? The correct way to read it is "Yakata Store." But everyone's been calling it Yahoo, ever since they were little. What exactly did you buy in there? Well, first... ...delicious cheese flavored sticks, you see. And delicious cheese flavored sticks. Followed up by delicious cheese flavored sticks. Cheese flavored, cheese flavored, cheese flavored! They're all cheese flavored! I like these, after all. I see. So that's why it tasted like cheese. N-No! That can't be true! It shouldn't have tasted like cheese... Huh, really? I thought you mixed some cheese into those muffins you shared during lunch. They had a funny taste. Y-You're right! There was some cream cheese mixed in the batter, yeah... That's a pine ball. It's made of pine needles. They tend to hang it from their roof whenever they have a new batch of sake ready. You sure know a lot, Tsumugi-san. I only learned about it from someone else, though. The girl from this store is a friend of mine, and she told me about it. This is also where we get the sake we serve at Yorozuyo. There seem to be more stores around here. So this is the shopping district. All right! To begin with, this is the flower shop. The storekeeper just got married! The people at the bike store further down just had a baby. And the owner of the soba restaurant recently sprained his ankle playing baseball, so they had to close down. The ramen restaurant on that corner is famous for its stubborn owner. But I highly recommend trying their ramen! Then I guess we'll give it a shot next time. Oh, and the only son of the set meal café over there is studying for entrance exams. The book store over here just had five kittens, which are looking for new owners. And the couple running the vegetable shop that way is in the middle of a big fight! You know a lot about these things, Kasane-chan. Well, they don't call me the Girl with Devil's Ears of Yamabiko for nothing. Gosh, Kasane. You can't get enough of those rumors, can you? Where should we go next? The Twin Mountains! Hey, we're going hiking? I wanted to show Kazu-kun the observatory! The observatory... So those Twin Mountains are the ones I got lost in yesterday. You were only wandering around the base, though. They call it Twin Mountains because they're like two mountains stuck together. Actually, there goes a legend about that mountain: Long time ago, a god and a goddess used to live atop that mountain. They spent so much time being together and ignored their duties, that God, who was angered by their indolence, split the tip of the mountain, and the two apart. That sounds a little like the Tanabata folk tale. Ever since then, the two kept exchanging words like "I love you" and "I want to see you." So, those are... Yes, they're referring to echoes. Their words bouncing between the mountains filled the plains. Their longing for each other brought great harvests for the people of the valley. That's said to be the origin of the name of this place: Yamabiko. There's a festival in Autumn based on this tale. We put two floats on either side of the bridge, and perform a sacred ceremony relaying both of them to the peaks of the mountains. That's when at Kotama Shrine- Oh, right! Let's go to Kotama Shrine! There's a really looong flight of stairs over there! You were... certainly not kidding. It really is long, Onii-chan. Kazu-kun, it's a race to the top! Onii-chan, good luck! Right... Daigo, take this! S-Sure... Those two sure are energetic. You can say that again. Ayumu-kun, let's take it slowly. Okay! They're like little kids, racing to the top... Kazu-kun, you're pretty fast! I-I guess. Oh, Madoka-chan? This girl's a first-year at our school. Her name's Madoka-chan. And this is the guy who transferred in today. I'm Hoshino Kazuma. Hoshino... Kazuma... Madoka-chan? Now you've pretty much seen everything. Let's end our trip down at the Bagpipe. The bag pipe? It's not a bag pipe, it's Bagpipe. It's a café we like to visit after school. The jumbo parfait there is really good! This is the jumbo parfait... That's huge, Onii-chan. So delicious! Wow, that hit the spot. Wait a second! I'm sure a wormhole in the time-space continuum just opened up in front of me! Ui, you have some cream on your mouth. Thank you, Onii-chan. This must be variation of calling your preschool teacher "Mom," right? Something like me calling my mother "Mom" at school, huh? It's different in your case. Sorry. Ayumu-kun kept calling you "Onii-chan," so I got carried away... You seem to be in a good mood, Ayumu. I am. I'm really glad we moved here now. What about you, Onii-chan? Yeah, same here. Kazu-kun's younger brother is Ayumu-kun. Ayumu-kun's older brother is Kazu-kun. I see. Kazu-kun was Onii-chan. Onii-chan, yours really is big... Ayumu, you on the other hand still have a long way to go. Excuse me for intruding on you two washing each other's back! Next time: Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, Episode 3: Acorns hurt more than expected! Ayumu-kun, do you know where on your body it would hurt to put acorns in? Um... nostrils, maybe? Safe... ▶ [Tsundere] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 03 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][8FC0861D] Thank you for the ring... Now I'm... They're taking their sweet time this morning. I guess it's about time I woke them up. Gosh, Onii-chan... It's sticking up again. It's not my fault. This is what happens in the morning sometimes. Sticking up in the morning?! It just won't calm down until I take care of it. Hurry up and do it already. Does this mean...? Okay, here I go. Stop! No sexual relationships Well, this would be considered homosexual, but incest makes it even worse! Oh? Don't be silly. You could've just said he had bad bed hair. I completely misinterpreted your words! You take smaller steps when walking with Ayumu-kun. You're matching Ayumu-kun's pace, right? What's up? Nothing. Nothing at all. Yo, Bro! Oh, it's just Daigo. All pumped up this early in the morning, I see. How are you doing, my brother's brother? Just fine! Good morning, Daigo-san. I'll get going then. Be careful! Excuse me, Kazuma-san? Perhaps we should get a move on... Kazu-kun, Daigo! Good morning! Morning, Ui! And Hinata... Hey! What's up with the annoyed expression? I have no such Hold it! You can't trick me! No, I didn't mean to. I just had a feeling we were being watched by someone... Lunchtime, lunchtime, lunchtime, hooray! Lunchtime, lunchtime, lunchtime, hooray! Make sure you get back quickly once you've bought your bread. Lunchtime, lunchtime, lots and lots of food! Ui's going to make our desk all sticky with her drool otherwise... Lots of food That's not true! I brought a handkerchief! So there will be drool... Hey, is that the guy? Yeah, the one who transferred in from the city. I heard he suddenly pushed a girl down deep in the mountains. That's right! And the rumor has it that There seem to be some strange rumors going around about me... Given that you came from the city and you did, well, you know... I'd find it strange if there weren't any. I told you that was only a misunderstanding. I know, don't get angry! You've only mentioned it two or three times, but you've actually done it five times, right? That's not the misunderstanding! What's wrong, Bro? Oh, nothing. It's finally over! Minamikokubaro-sensei's homerooms take forever. Hey, let's go hang out somewhere. I'm starving... Even though you ate all that for lunch? Don't give me that I-don't-get-it look. Give it up, Bro. That's just how she is. Hold this! S-Sure... What happened to him? No idea. Hey, wait a sec! Stalking me from the shadows everywhere I go... Hold it! Safe... Wait. You're the girl from that shrine. Sorry, I must've surprised you. Are you okay? I-I'm fine! I was just kind of at loss for words since you bumped into me so suddenly. I feel that many problems may surface now that you've run all the way here and suddenly grabbed me. I also think some steps ought to be taken before advancing to this stage. More importantly, it's somehow embarrassing when you're doing this to me... So could you please... let go? I-I said... let go! I-I'm so sorry! Kazuma-san? Are you all right? Nurse's Office Ow, ow, ow! Androphobia? That might be an overstatement, but Madoka-chan does have some issues with men because her grandfather was so strict. If a guy she's not familiar with gets too close to her, she panics just like she did earlier. So what was all that? I'm not too sure myself, but I think it's a defensive martial art of sorts. Her grandfather taught it to her to keep flirts away. Flirts... It certainly was unfortunate, but please don't think badly of her because of this. Oh, of course I won't. Thank you. I knew you were kind, Kazuma-san. You sure slept in. Good morning. It's almost noon. Aren't you relaxing a little too much, even for a Sunday? Sorry, I stayed up late last night. Ayumu-kun went out already. He left with his sketchbook saying he's going to draw the scenery. You should eat your breakfast, and go and take a walk or something as well! I can't clean the room while you're in it. All right. I'll take a walk, but where should I go? Well, the weather's nice. I suppose I'll just stroll around a little. Ouch! My back still hurts... Androphobia? Madoka-chan does have some issues with men because her grandfather was so strict. Maybe that wasn't the best move. I guess I better go apologize to her. I don't know if she's around, but I might as well give it a try. She's there, she's not. She's there, she's not. She's there, she's not. She's there, she's not. She's there, she's not. She's there. You're here! Wait! I'm sorry about what happened! I-I'm also... Please, forgive me! I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to do that. My body reacted on its own before I even noticed what I was doing. It was my fault for grabbing your shoulders in the first place. Koumoto-san, there's nothing to apologize for. Thank you very much. I'm relieved to hear that. Oh, and you can call me Madoka. You're my senpai, so please don't hesitate to do so. In that case, go ahead and call me Kazuma too. Okay, Senpa Kazuma-san... I guess I'll get going now, Madoka-chan... Please, wait! There's something I want to ask you. Ask me? Y-Yes. I'm not sure whether I should be asking this... It's about Nakatsugawa-senpai... Is it true that you knocked her over in the mountains and, uh, did things to her? I see. You slipped on a stepping stone in the river. Exactly. I tried to jump to the other side, but I took a dive instead. I understand. When I was young, I used to play there often and fell down many times, too. Yeah... So what happened there was an accident. I didn't do any "things" to her Well, I did accidentally kiss her... That happened because I slipped and fell on top of her, though. You kissed her?! Well, you see... Over there... with Nakatsugawa-senpai... Why? An acorn? The Heavens call! The Earth calls! The people call! They call upon me to vanquish this evil! My name is Toudou Koyori! I've arrived here to punish the evildoer! You city insect, Hoshino Kazuma! I cannot forgive you for disrupting the peace of our lovely Yamabiko! H-Hey, wait! What is all this, popping out of nowhere and calling me an insect?! Besides, when did I disrupt anyone's peace? Don't play dumb, Hoshino Kazuma! The tales of you poisoning Ui-cchu have reached my ears! Huh? Ui-cchu? Are you talking about Ui? Who else?! I've been saying it was just a misunderstanding! Really? A misunderstanding was it? Then what's your excuse for making Madoka cry?! That I'm not really sure about myself... No need for further questions then! Ow, ow, ow! Hey! Take this, and this, and this! Stop it, Koyori-chan! He wasn't the one who made me cry! It's not Kazuma-san's fault! So please, stop hurting him! Hoshino Kazuma, I'll trust Madoka's words and will forgive you this time! But if you make her cry again, you'll face my wrath! Poof. Screw you! You're supposed to crouch and cover your eyes when I say poof! Otherwise I can't disappear! I'm not familiar with the infantile local guidelines... Poof! Poof! Poof, poof! Hey hey, let's stop by Bagpipe on our way home today. I'll have to pass today. I have club activities. Oh, I see. How about you, Kazu-kun? I'm in. Hinata, what club are you in? Ibuki-chan does archery! Archery? She's really good! They call her Hiko South's Robin... Robin... what was it again? Mask, of course. Yeah, you're right! No, you're not! It's Robin Hood! Robin Hood! But you must be really good at it for people to call you that. Yup! She's our representative for the next prefectural tournament. T-That doesn't matter! But in that case... Ui and my Bro over here will be going home alone. You have some errands too, Daigo? Actually, I have to stay for extra English classes! Not something you'd say to act cool. Listen up! I believe you know this already, but if you try to do something funny to Ui on your way home, you won't get away with it! R-Roger. That Hinata... What did she mean by "something funny"? Don't you agree? Y-Yeah, you're right. Ibuki-chan's such a dummy. Ayumu! Onii-chan. And Ui-san, too. Hello, Ayumu-kun! Onii-chan, I joined the art club. I see. You're really good at drawing, after all. I didn't know that. Can you draw a picture of me next time? No? I'm not all that good, so I'm not sure... Ayumu, you're a little red. N-No, I'm not. Show me your forehead. I just want to check if you have a fever. Do you have to do it here? Come on. You do have a little fever. I'm fine! What are you saying? You should consider your health. What are we going to do if it gets worse later? But... Get on, I'll give you a ride to Yorozuyo. It's okay! I can walk home on my own. Just get on. Ui, sorry, but could you take my bag? Sure. Ayumu-kun, you shouldn't push yourself when you have a fever. If I recall correctly, Onii-chan used to carry me around a lot... My legs hurt! I can't walk anymore! What am I going to do with you? Come on, I'll give you a ride home. Okay... How nice. I'd like to be carried that way. Oh, Ayumu-kun has a fever and I'm imagining these things... But... Sorry for making you wait. How's Ayumu-kun doing? He fell asleep holding onto my hand right after I gave him some medicine against cold. I'm sure he'll be fine by tomorrow. Thank goodness it wasn't anything major. You're a really good brother to him, Kazu-kun. I'm kind of jealous of Ayumu-kun. I-It's not like I want you to give me a piggyback ride, or have you feel my forehead... Your forehead? W-W-W-Wha Excuse my interruption. Oh my, looks like I really did interrupt something. Well then. Have a nice time, you two. Nee-san, what are you doing? Geez... I wasn't supposed to eat these? What's going on?! Say, Kazuma-kun, what kind of girls do you like? Next time: Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, Episode 4: She met a bear and talked to it. Don't ignore me by using previews! Tell me! Let's see... Energetic girls with long hair, who are just fun to be around... What did you say?! Ui-cchu matches that perfectly! In order words, she's like your Strike Uitch, Onii-chan! Ayumu, that barely works! ▶ [Tsundere] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 04 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][D18C3361] To-buy list... Taro potatoes, carrots, konnyaku gelatin, gobou roots... "Okay," there. We lucked out! Are they really that good? I'm gonna take a piss! Oh, right! Catch! Man, I can't believe we were able to get our hands on Nozawana Cream Sandwiches. We lucked out! Are they really that good? I'm gonna take a piss! Oh, right! Catch! Ouch... Sorry, I didn't see you! You dropped this... Good. It doesn't seem to be broken. Mail Sent . Thanks. Pretty cute. Don't mock me! Um, I wasn't trying to... It's just that my brother likes these, so... Sorry to keep you waiting! What's wrong, Bro? Isn't that Sakai-senpai? You know her? Huh? Know her? Sakai Hina, a third-year, is the only daughter and heir of the famous Sakai Distillery. Together with Tsumugi-san, she stands as the other Venus of this school! If you were to call Tsumugi-san the fluffy, warm, big sister type, Sakai-senpai, on the other hand, would be the cool beauty! Due to her model-like height and deep, cold stare, the boys voted her as the number one person they want to be scolded by, and the girls voted her as their number one target to give Valentine's chocolate to! Everyone adores her! So she's my senpai... Wow, cool beauty! What just happened might've been a little bad then... Scold me, scold me more I have always been the tallest person in my class ever since I was little, and always ended up sitting in the back. Nobody ever called me cute before. That's why when he said I was cute, I was sure he was just mocking me... He wasn't talking about me, though. I'm so embarrassed... Really? I didn't know this school held a sports festival around this time of the year. Dass wight. Ui, don't talk with food in your mouth. Since we don't have many students, we hold the festival together with the middle school. It's pretty entertaining, actually. Don't forget the Hikonan Race! Hikonan Race? What's that? In simple terms, it's a city-wide marathon. But since that alone would be boring, you have to complete tasks at certain checkpoints to proceed. They award prizes to the top runners, so it's the focal point of the sports festival! Are you going to participate as the Bagpipe representative again? Yeah! The owner is really kind to us, so we have to return the favor. How do you represent a café? The Hikonan Race is being sponsored by the neighborhood association, so basically all contestants enter as representatives of a certain store. And because it's such a large local event, TV crews gather here to cover it. So they're going to broadcast it? Not really. It'll turn into a small piece on the local news at best. But they'll interview you if you win! It's the perfect kind of advertisement, so people down at the shopping district always get pretty serious about it. Well, there's that, but I think they hold this event to give everyone in the town a boost of energy! I see. Well, I guess this doesn't really concern me. I'm home! Wh-What is it, Nee-san? Kazuma-kun. Yes? It's training time! Huh? I'll be the Yorozuyo representative in the Hikonan Race?! Ayumu-kun told me that you're in a good shape thanks to the tennis team you were on at your last school. It's not good... No need to be modest. I noticed those tight muscles around your crotch when you were coming out of the bath. Stop looking at me like that! I'm still underage! All right, let's begin your training. Listen up! This rag is soaked with glass cleaner! And you use this one to wipe it off! Apply the cleaner, wipe the cleaner! Apply the cleaner, wipe the cleaner! Now, give it a try. Apply the cleaner, wipe the cleaner. Apply the cleaner, wipe the cleaner. And what exactly is the point of this training? To get the windows nice and clean. Nee-san! Well, that's enough fooling around. Now it's time for the real thing. So what am I supposed to do next? Once you've heated up the sand in a wok... ...jam your fingertips into it hundreds and thousands of times! This will make your fingertips harder than steel, and you'll be able to use the legendary one-hit-K.O. assassination technique I'll do some running then. Wait, Kazuma-kun! He sure doesn't catch on to things. Hey! Up here! Wh-Why did you climb up there? I was saving a kitty that couldn't get down from this tree. A kitty? Anyway, what were you planning to do with my stuff?! I wasn't doing anything. I know! You were trying to steal the special on-sale items you found! As if... ...I'd do that. Then why do you keep averting your eyes? Is it not because you feel guilt in your heart?! Well, that's because... Because? Spit it out, Hoshino Kazuma! Y-Your skirt... you see... My skirt? Watch out! I can't breathe... Wh-What do you think you're doing?! Ouch... What I'm doing? I just saved you. Indeed you did. Thanks. I'd never guess you were Tsumugi-san's sister... What the hell?! You were thinking something rude just now, right? Oh, I wouldn't dare. By the way, it seems like you bought quite a lot. Shopping for ingredients? No, I'm bringing this to Gen-jii. Gen-jii? Gen-jii lives alone. He can't go shopping on his own, so I do it for him once in a while. Why would you do that, though? Well... It's only natural to help someone in need. Give me that bag. So you really were after this! No, I'm not! I'm just offering to carry it for you! Wh-Why would you? Why? I thought it was only natural to help someone in need. Besides, I can't let a girl carry heavy stuff while I'm not holding anything. A-A girl? Fine, you can take one. One? All right, I'm coming. N-Nice to meet you. I sure was surprised. I didn't know Koyori-chan had a boyfriend. Wh-What are you saying, Gen-jii?! He's just a terrible guy from the city! He pushed Ui-cchu down and made Madoka cry! He's a criminal! There's no way he'd be my b-b... ...boyfriend! No way at all! Well... The name's Gengorou. Yamakawa Gengorou. I don't mind if you call me Gen-jii like Koyori does, though. I-It's fine. Gengorou-san, do you live here alone? Yes. My only daughter got married, and my wife passed away three years ago. I see. I'm sorry for asking... There's nothing to be sorry about. You're still young. You should understand that an old man living alone has it pretty easy. My grandson, Keita, will be going through surgery soon, though. I've been anxious about it because he seems to be quite scared. Is is that complicated? No, the doctor says that the vast majority of those operations go without any complications, but since he's still a child, I guess he's scared of it nonetheless. Sorry, Koyori-chan, but could you pay Keita another visit? It seems having you around cheers him up the most. Of course I will! Leave it to me! Pretty cute. Don't mock me. Maybe I was a little mean. That's right. All he did was call me cute. The way you reacted was unacceptable, though. I guess so... I should apologize to him. You sure slept in. Good morning. It's already noon. Just because it's Sunday, it doesn't mean you can slack off all you want. I'm tired because I'm training for the Hikonan Race. Ayumu-kun went out ages ago. Sketching again? No, I think he said he was going over to Daigo-kun's place. Daigo's place? Why would Ayumu go to Daigo's house? I'm surprised. I didn't think you'd be training for real, even if you are entering the Hikonan Race. I can't slack off, now that I know I'll be participating. Are you going to participate too? Me? I'm not. Then why? Self-training. For the archery club, that is. Are you wearing that because of the club rules? Not exactly. You should wear a P.E. uniform when exercising, right? She doesn't seem to mind wearing that out of school one bit. This must be the "culture gap" I've heard of. Makes you realize this place is rural all over again. Here. You're thirsty, aren't you? I can't bear to watch that pleading look on your face, so I'll let you have some. Are you okay with that? This would mean an indirect kiss The same spot...! Gosh, you're so stupid! By the way... Ui said she'll be entering the Hikonan Race as well, but is she actually training? I think she's training in her own special way... One large all-in ramen, right up! All right, get ready to time me! On your mark. Get set! Go! Yes? Keita-kun, your Grandpa's here to see you. Yo. Grandpa! Koyori-chan, too. Keita, are you doing well? If I were, I wouldn't be stuck in the hospital. Don't be so rude, Keita. Koyori-chan came to pay you a visit. Keita, you can be energetic even when you're sick, you know! Actually, it's best to be energetic when you're sick. Use that energy to blow your sickness away! That's right, Keita. It's just as Koyori-chan says. Besides, you'll be fine once you have your surgery. O-Okay. If I do as you say, will I really be able to blow the sickness away? Of course! Energetic people can do anything! I read in a textbook that a famous person in the past said the same thing! In that case, Koyori-neechan, can you win the next Hikonan Race? You can do anything if you're energetic, right? Then you should...! Keita, you can't bother Koyori-chan with such nonsense. But... All right! I'll enter the Hikonan Race! I'll win it, too! But Koyori-chan... But if I win, you'll have to get more energetic too! You're going to have that surgery and become even more energetic! Promise me that! Pinky promise! Okay! Pinky promise. It's a promise, you'll have to swallow a thousand needles if you break it. Pinky promise! Sakai Distillery This month's looking tough, too. I guess I'll cut my husband's allowance. Hey, where's Hina? Do you need her? I was hoping she'd help me deliver some stuff. She went running. She's training for the Hikonan Race, apparently. What are you doing here? Waah, waah! I'm sad! I was abandoned here! You poor thing. Aren't you lonely out here? Yeah. Then would you like to stay at my house? Huh? Can I? Sure. D-Did he hear all that? N-No, I don't think he did. You dropped this. Th-Thank you... S-See you then. Oh! Wh-What? Sakai-senpai, right? Yes, that's me. I'm sorry about what happened at school. I had no idea you were my senpai; I was rude. I don't mind. I see. That's good. I missed my chance to apologize again. I've been slacking off. I guess should push myself for once. And... start! Sorry, I must've surprised you. I-It's okay. B-But I'd appreciate it if you came at more regular hours when visiting the shrine. S-Sorry... I see. You're participating in the Hikonan Race, and this is a part of your training. They're letting us stay at Yorozuyo, so I can't refuse when Nee-sa I mean, when Senka-san asks me to do it. Do your best then! I'll cheer you on. Thank you. I'll do my best so I can advertise Yorozuyo in the victory interview. If you win, you'll also get to be the Ogami for the fall festival. Ogami? It's the distinction for a male god. Think of it as the difference between god and goddess. The fall festival is related to the legend of the Twin Mountains. You bring floats to the two ends of the bridge, just like the two mountain peaks, right? You know more than I expected. Tsumugi-san told me about it. At the beginning of the festival, the god receives a ritual prayer from the shrine maiden, and gets on the float waiting for him at the bottom. The goddess similarly receives a script from a house chosen in prior and rides on the float. The two face one another at the two ends of the bridge. The god reads his script first, then the goddess reads hers in response. And that creates the image of the "echo" of the two calling to each other. Yes, but this ritual not only represents the legend of Twin Mountains, but also the descent of the mountain god to this valley, his bond with it, and his blessing of the people living here. When the calls of the god and the goddess reach one another's hearts... ...its proof can been seen in the night sky as a beautiful bridge of stars. A bridge of stars, huh? Ayumu! What's the first thing that pops into your head when I say sports festival? Ball rolling, pole pushing... as well as ball tossing! A ball, a pole, and another ball! A wonderful selection! All right! Now that I'm fired up, it's time for the preview! Next time, Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, Episode Five: Read bean soup, eels and a wedding dress. Ayumu, can you say it again? Ball rolling, ball pushing, pole tossing! Oh, I messed up! Thanks! ▶ [Tsundere] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 05 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][EAB83483] The Sports Festival of Yamabiko South Academy, and, more importantly, the main event: the Hikonan Race! It is a long and severe battle indeed. Ayumu! Yes! And your brother, Ayumu, is on the verge of entering the fray. Thus in order for him to emerge the victor... He needs you, his kin, to support him! Then I'll cheer him on as much as I can! Well said. However regular cheering may not be enough. And that is why... I'll let you have this. B-But isn't that...? And so everyone, whether you end up winning or losing, remember to give it your best shot! Well then, would each team representative please come to the front and recite the Athlete's Declaration? Athlete's Declaration: We, the athletes, solemnly declare... ...to preserve the precepts of a true sportsman... ...and swear to abide by and uphold the rules of this event! Red team representative, Sakai Hina. White team representative, Toudou Tsumugi. All right, it's finally begun! This is the Yamabiko South Academy's Sports Festival! And here we have Miss Toudou Tsumugi, who seems to be getting a lot of praise from the boys on the White team. And Miss Sakai Hina, on the other hand, appears to be submerged under the love of the girls on the Red team! The declarations are done! It's time for the games to begin! Your announcer for the day will be none other than me: Minamikokubaru Daigorou. All right, let's get started. The first event is... ...the bread eating race! On your mark... Look at that speed! "Food first, phone calls second, three o'clock snacks four times a day," isn't her motto for nothing! In other news, Miss Koumoto seems to... Uh... it would appear as if the poles for the bread dropped as some other poles raised. Miss Koumoto has finally reached the finish line. Next up is the girls' 100 meters sprint! You have to place your bets on her, folks. Miss Sakai Hina is in the house! Senpai's looking at me! No, she's looking at me! On your mark! Get set! She won! She's so cool! Sakai-senpai really popular with the girls, huh? On your mark! No way... Huh? Why? Mugi-nee... Your proportions might be a little too good... Here we go, the Archery Club's ball throwing contest! The Red team has been the victor in this event for many years. Will the opposing team be able to turn the tides? Ayumu, don't give up! You don't have to wave back... On your mark... And the scavenger hunt begins! The instructions on your card will determine your fate! What will the contestants find written on those cards, I wonder? Large Breasts Large breasts...? Oh, I know! I'll get Madoka-chan. Madoka-chan, come with me. R-Right... Madoka-chan is androphobic. What's the next event? A demonstration by the Archery Club. The Archery Club? Then... Yup. Ibuki-chan is going to represent the club. Ladies and gentlemen, the demonstration by Miss Hinata Ibuki of the Archery Club! Are you okay with that? No, I can't get distracted now. I have to concentrate. This is all your fault! Kazu-kun, what's wrong? Ah, it's nothing. I just suddenly got the chills... Ui, over here! Mom, Dad! Mom, these two are- Come on, sit down first. Thank you. You're Kazuma-kun, right? Yes, I'm Hoshino Kazuma. I guess he resembles Hajime a little. Oh, Hajime is our son. Ui was all over her brother when she was young. Mom! Don't tell them about that- You must be his younger brother Ayumu-kun then. Y-Yes. You'll have to keep a good grip on your brother. Ui might snatch him away otherwise. Mom, stop that! Where's Ibuki-chan? She said we should go ahead and eat while she changes. And Daigo seems to be occupied with the executive committee work. I see. All right. Time to unseal the Ui Lunch Box: Sports Festival Version then. The top box is full of colorful, decorative side dishes. The second box consists mainly of meaty, filling side dishes. Then the third and final box... Wow! ...is full of rice balls with sour plum and spicy salmon roe! But that's not all! Order one now and get another absolutely free! Is this an infomercial or something? If we're talking boxed lunches, I won't give up without a fight. Nee-san! Your handmade Yorozuyo boxed lunch has arrived! I made your favorite sweet inari pouches today, Madoka. Wow, there are so many! Since today's the sports festival, Mommy worked hard to make all of these. Having lunch like this is somehow really nice, isn't it? It sure is. Butts, butts, butts everywhere! There's a veritable treasure trove of butts around here! This is the parents' rear end sumo event! Still in! You're still in! In! Your butt's still in! With the mothers' rear end sumo over, we'll now proceed to the event you've all been waiting for! It's time for the Hikonan Race! First off, allow me to introduce the competitors on the starting line! Both her stomach and dreams stretching to infinite proportions, representing the Bagpipe café: Nakatsugawa Ui! Ui-chan, give it your best! Bar master, you owe me a jumbo parfait if I win! Moving on! The cool beauty representing the Sakai Distillery: Sakai Hina! Hina, you'd better not lose! Father, that's embarrassing... Having joined on short notice, the representative of Yamagen Gardens: Toudou Koyori! And the main participant this time around, representing Yorozuyo Inn: the city boy transfer student, Hoshino Kazuma! Kazuma-kun! It's time to show us the result of your training! Nee-san, the results of what training? Onii-chan, do your best! Go, go, Kazuma! Win, win, Kazuma! Yay! A-Ayumu, what's with that outfit? D-Daigo-san said you'd get pumped up the most if I were to cheer you on wearing this... Daigo! I-I just...! Good job! On your mark... Get set... All right, and as such I mean, all the competitors are off! Let's head over to our reporter, Toudou Kasane-san. Kasane-san, can you hear us? Kasane-san! Yes! This your on-site reporter, Toudou Kasane speaking! The opening challenge awaits the participants here at the first checkpoint. All competitors will have to go through thirty bowls of Kanmidokoro Azukidou's red bean soup! Oh no! The first challenge is thirty bowls of red bean soup! According to our reports, Miss Nakatsugawa had anticipated the race's eating challenge to be ramen this year and had practiced accordingly. Does this mean she's in trouble? Ui-chan... Mom, is Ui going to be all right? Of course she is. Wow! Miss Nakatsugawa took care of the thirty bowls in an instant! It's impossible to comprehend how she's managed to down this amount! Told you. Okay, sorry to keep you waiting! I, Toudou Kasane, am currently standing at the second checkpoint. We have a number of eels stored here, in this special pool. These animals are a gift from our sponsor, Unakii from the commercial district. The competitors will have to catch ten eels in order to pass this checkpoint! Did you hear that? The second challenge is eel catching! Please note that the staff will thoroughly enjoy the captured eels later. I don't think I can even look at any sweets for a while... That sure made a lot of guys drop out. No! I'm soaked now! It got into my clothes! Hey, Ui! Where are you going? Ask the eel! Classic... While most people are having issues with the eels at the second checkpoint, Miss Toudou is catching them with ease! She actually used to catch loaches in the rice fields and snack on them raw when she was younger. I did not! All right, if I manage to stay in the lead...! The competitors will have to put on a costume each at the third checkpoint. What you'll end up wearing will be decided by the card you draw! Everyone, please look forward to the interesting costumes our participants will be returning in! There she is! Miss Toudou, currently in the lead, is wearing... ...a wedding dress! Why does it have to be so difficult to run in? Huh? More and more competitors have reached the third checkpoint! They're all dressed in a multitude of costumes- Miss Nakatsugawa, w-what is that?! S-So cute... I want to squeeze it... Why are you panting?! If I keep this up... If I keep this up and win, I'll be able to keep my promise with Keita! I'll help him get better! Just a little more. I'm almost there. Just a little further. Just a little! What's wrong? H-Hey, are you all right? I'm fine! Did you hurt your foot? What happened? Anyway, you can't run like this. You have to retire. No! Why not? I promised Keita. Keita? You mean Gengorou-san's grandson? I told him I'd win the Hikonan Race. I told him to cheer up if I win. He'd cheer up, undergo the surgery, and get better... Fine. You can hold on to me until we reach the goal. Come on. D-Don't be ridiculous! It's no victory if I accept help from my enemy! This isn't the time for that, is it? Forget it! I'll definitely reach the goal myself. Then Keita... Why am I being chased?! Shoot, at this rate... What are you doing?! Just hold on! You want to win, don't you? You want to win this for Keita, don't you? Then leave it to me! Here they are! Who's coming in first?! Onii-chan! I can't believe it! It's Mister Hoshino, carrying Miss Toudou like a princess! And here we go! They've reached the goal! We've received the results of the last race. After careful examination of the footage, we've determined that Miss Toudou touched the tape first. Therefore, Miss Toudou takes first place, and Mister Hoshino ends up with second! As you all know, the Hikonan Race is being run at this time of year. Just which of the stores claimed victory this year? Our reporter, Kyouko-chan, should be on the location... Kyouko-chan? Yes! This is the Yahoo reporter, Kyouko. I'm currently at Yamabiko South Academy. But first things first, it's time for our interview with the winner. Could you please tell us your name and the store you repre- Keita, are you watching? I won, just like I promised! That's why you have to cheer up, Keita! You're going to blow your sickness away! Yeah! Koumoto-senpai's mother was the winner of the rear end sumo event. How did you do it? I knew my enemy and knew myself, if you know what I mean. As for Minamikokubaru-sensei, who came in close at second place... I believe I lost because I wasn't able to get in a position to ass-assinate her. Oh look, it's time for the preview already! Next time, Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, Episode Six: When the bucket falls. Nakatsugawa-senpai's Mom, thank you for tying up the loose rear ends. ▶ [Tsundere] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 06 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][02BC8308] This is where Kazuma-san and Nakatsugawa-senpai... Finals? What are you talking about? Is it some kinda cultural thing around here? They don't run finals in city schools?! Yeah, right. Don't believe everything you hear. Judging by that attitude, you must be feeling pretty confident. Are you really prepared? Probably... I guess. That didn't sound reassuring at all. Well, I was busy moving and all. I couldn't really concentrate on studying... Then it's time to do something about it, before it's too late. They force you to take summer classes if you flunk the finals here, you know? What? Seriously? I can't let them ruin my summer vacation like that. That's why I'm going to have Ibuki-chan tutor me! Hinata, you're good at this? Why exactly do you look so surprised? Well, you didn't seem like the studious type, since you spent most of your time at the club. How rude! Just as a swan, I put forth a lot of effort in places one cannot see. Was that supposed to be the "kicking under the water's surface to stay afloat" analogy? I hear that's all made up, actually. Where did come sprouting from? Apparently, swans have some kind of fat gland on their backside. It serves to repel water or to trap in air bubbles. I didn't know that. So... you're saying Hinata spouts oil out of her rear... Y-You moron, of course I don't! That aside, I came up with an idea to conquer the finals. So you'd like everyone to stay over for a study session... All right, you have my permission. Are you sure? We no longer house customers in the older wing, and besides, I have no reason to refuse if your purpose is educational. Excuse the intrusion! Wait, Koyo-nee, we're not challenging a dojo here. Hoshino Kazuma, we've come to study! I take it your foot's all better now. Yeah! Just have a look! Kazuma-san, sorry that we're so late. Oh, it's all right. I should be the one apologizing for making you tutor us. Don't worry about it. Teaching others is usually a good review for oneself, and it's also a good opportunity to make these two actually study. Looks, they're here! Hello! Sorry to keep you waiting. Not a problem! Oh, Madoka-chan is with you! Uh, yes... Koyori-chan invited me to study with her, so... Okay, now that we've all gathered here, it's about time Oh, wait. One more person is coming. Sorry. I'm sorry. I apologize. I have no excuse. I still haven't apologized for what I said back then. Don't mock me! So this study session will be a good opportunity to do so. If I meet Hoshino, I'll definitely apologize this time. Excuse me. Coming! Welcome. You're finally here! Come on in. Everyone's waiting for you. I guess you two haven't met yet, huh? This is Hoshino Ayumu-kun. Kazuma-san's little brother. The one who cheered him on during the sports festival, wearing a cheerleader outfit. Good boy who cares about his big brother. U-Um... You've become fond of him, haven't you? Okay! In preparation for the upcoming finals, it is time to begin this study session! Hey, Ui! All right, one more time! Commence the study session! Ui... But...! Ui-chan, we can have snacks later. But right now, it's time to study. Okay... You can rewrite the equation x + 3 = 8, as x = 8 - 3. See, the answer is x = 5. You do this here, and that's the answer. Oh, I see. Is it already this late? Cramming isn't going to help anyone. Why don't we take a break and have some dinner? Food?! Actually, let's take a bath first. A bath... you say? Awesome! The hell is this? Isn't this supposed to be coed? Of course not. Bro! And my bro's bro! I can't believe you're both fine with this! I... I, for one... ...am so excited I can keep a pail on my crotch without using any hands! Wow, it's like magic! That's not something you should be impressed by! Wow, Madoka-chan, your boobs are huge! Let me touch them a bit, 'kay? Please, don't Madoka's are big, but Mugi-nee's are definitely the biggest! Hey, you don't have to point that out! But she's right, they are big. Even you, Hina? Bro, I was wrong. Yeah. I don't remember you ever being right, though. We can't sit here and weep just because this is no mixed bath! I have to show my courage, and take the first step forward on my third leg! Third leg? Bro, I shall now go! Towards the yet uncharted valley of Shangri-la! Punishment! My eyes! My eyes! Predicting your moves is too easy, pervert! Koyori-chan... At least try to cover yourself... Take this! And that! How's that? Come on, stop! Nice! Really nice! I'll never lose at boob sumo! Bring it on! The boob sponges are ready. Who wants to get scrubbed first? I'm sure that's what they're doing on the other side. I really doubt it. Why am I stuck here, washing this scruffy little back on this side? Well, sorry that I'm scruffy. Come on, Bro, isn't there some secret pathway connecting the men and womens' bath? Obviously not. There is a wooden gate for employees in the garden, though. That's it! Found it. Why would I risk peeking over the wall, when I can just sneak around this way This is the best after a nice, long bath! This feels great... Madoka, here I go! Okay! Not too bad! How about this?! Where did it go? Um, Koumoto-senpai... The ping-pong ball is right there. Koumoto-senpai wins! What?! Wow... This must be why this place is one of the better-known sights of Yamabiko. Onii-chan, there's a ton of fireflies at the riverbed! Let's go have a look! Okay, I'm coming. Let's go, Ui. I'm fine... I'll enjoy the breeze here a little longer. But... Onii-chan, hurry up! Yeah, I'm coming! Fireflies... I'd never think Hajime would find himself such a pretty fiancée. Please, you're embarrassing me. You certainly surprised me, though. Ui, don't sit there all dejected. Say hi to Kuriko-san. What's wrong? I said say hi Ui? Wait! Onii-chan, you dummy. I knew you'd be here. What happened? Your mom was looking for you. Back then, Ibuki-chan stayed together with me at the observatory the whole time. She listened to my story until the sun began to set, and I finally started to calm down. Hearing that Onii-chan was getting married came as a big shock to me. It felt as if he was being stolen from me. But then I realized that it wasn't the right thing to do. Gosh, where have you been? We looked everywhere Mom, where's Onii-chan? Hajime went to the river in front of Yorozuyo to show Kuriko-san the fireflies Hold on... Ui?! That's why I decided to apologize to him. And if I could, I wanted to congratulate him. Onii In the end, I didn't congratulate him at the wedding, either... Ui-chan! Dinner's ready now. Could you let everyone know? Okay. Nee-san, seconds please! Ayumu-kun, you've been eating a lot more recently. Well, the food is great. It's a sign of you getting healthier. There's plenty left, so eat as much as you like. Thank you for the meal. Oh, are you done already? I'm not very hungry today. I see. Looks like we've reached our limit. Let's stop here for today. Go to sleep early tonight, everyone. We're going to wake up early tomorrow and give it another go while it's still cool outside. Hi-yah! Everyone's sleeping together! It's like a school trip! I'm so excited! You always get all pumped up the moment you stop studying. Kasane-chan, you're changing? Yeah. I like the yukata, but I really love my pajamas. Ta-da! Wow, that's so cute! Isn't it? I just can't relax unless I'm wearing this! Say, Bro... What? There are seven girls under this very roof, yet why am I sleeping next to a guy? Like I'd know. Actually, what else did you expect? Don't you think it's ridiculous?! We can't just sleep under these circumstances! Those seven lasses might be comparing boob sensitivity or showing off their underwear as we speak! That notion is probably what's ridiculous. Bro, I'm going! You may label it as sneaking around at night, but I call it an adventure; a quest if you will! Are you serious? Of course! Mixing red bean paste with honey tastes really good... K-Kazu-kun? Why are you here? Why? I just went to the bathroom. What about you? I, well... You know, I couldn't sleep... So, I... Heh, I knew it! What do you mean, you knew it?! Besides, you don't have to laugh Here you go. Where did you get these? Tsumugi-san made them with the leftover rice, suspecting you'd get hungry and wake up at night. Dear Ui-chan, eat this if you get hungry. Come on, hurry up and dig in. Dear Ui-chan, eat this if you get hungry Your growling stomach's going to wake everyone up otherwise. The moon is really pretty. Yeah. But it's so bright that you can't see the stars. A bridge of stars appears in the sky on the night of the festival, right? Oh, you mean the legend of Twin Mountains? The bridge only appears when the god and goddess' feelings properly reach one another, though. I see. I'd like to see it. A bridge to the starry skies. Next time, Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, Episode Seven: The Pink Nyanbobo. Onii-chan, what's a nyanbobo? No idea. Kazu-kun, you don't know what a nyanbobo is? You really need to study more if you don't know what a nyanbobo is! How unusual, someone who doesn't know what a nyanbobo is. Nyanbobos are pretty famous around here. Nyanbobos are cute. Nyanbobo. Nyanbobo! Did they make this preview just so everyone could get to say nyanbobo? ▶ [Tsundere] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 07 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][B81FFE02] Sensei, you idiot! I hate homework! We're done! We're done. We're really done for. You're giving up already? Come on, Daigon. The only time when we can enjoy ourselves is until we get our grades back. You can't go feeling all gloomy now! Uh, I think there's something wrong with that logic... I see. You're right. All right! Let's take a trip out to Honchou and have a blast! Agreed! Kazu-kun, you're coming with us! Sure, but what's this "Honchou?" Honchou is a place two stations away from Yamabiko. It's the biggest city around here. Most people go there to hang out or do shopping and such on their days off. Oh, so it's like Shibuya or Harajuku. Shibu-what? Does it taste good? Anyway, let's consider this our finals-are-over party. Let's all go out and have fun! I'll pass. I have club activities in the afternoon. Oh, that's right. The ban on club activities expired with the end of the exam period. Yup. The archery prefectural tournament is coming up, so I have to practice extra hard now. See you guys! I went to the study session... ...but I didn't apologize to him. Don't mock me! I'll definitely apologize to him this time. She's here! Everyone's here now. All right, time to go then! Where's Hoshino's brother? And Hinata's missing too. Ibuki-chan had archery practice, so she couldn't come. As for Ayumu-kun... Ayumu said he can't join us today because he promised to go draw the scenery with his friends from the Art Club. Well, look on the bright side. Ayumu-kun now has friends he can hang out with. She's absolutely right, Hoshino Kazuma! Your brother can't keep relying on you forever. Look who's talking. You still have Mugi-nee fix your buttons when they come off. Sh-Shut up! That was just a coincidence! So Hoshino's brother is not coming. Darn. Okay. Yes, I understand. We'll go with that, then. What did they say? We have to wait two hours for a karaoke box big enough for this many people. Two hours?! Don't puff up like that. Why don't we kill some time at the arcade while we're waiting? I win again. Hoshino Kazuma, we'll fight this out in reality! We'll settle this by wrestling! Get outside! Like I'd do that! Kasane-chan, you're really good at this. I did it! Koumoto-senpai, why don't you give it a try? N-No way. I'm not very good at these things. It's simple. You just have to step on the panels when they light up. But... Come on, it's started already. But... Hurry up! Like this? Is this how you do it? Yeah, you're doing great. Keep it up! Kasane-chan, I told you I'm not good at Not again... Tokimeki Ryouzanpaku Gakuen? What's that? As you can see, it's strip mahjong. You fight against 36 beautiful transfer students and aim to strip every single one of them. Each one you strip becomes your ally, and you can use her abilities in later games. Gotcha! Tsumo, Baiman! Now, Shishin-chan! Let's have a look at that Kumon Dragon tattoo wrapped around your body! Sweet... Th-This is, you know... Great, that's what it is! But isn't this risky? Risky? You mean risqué? You sure about this? Can we really keep looking? Cough! Why can't I grab it?! What's wrong, Ui? I can't grab any of them... I'm getting more change! Let's give it a go. Huh? Isn't this... ...the one Senpai had? Hey, that's Bobopin! Bobopin? The pink version of Nyanbobo, a mascot from around here. Abbreviate it and you get Bobopin. You can only win them in the claw crane. They're pretty rare. This is supposed to be rare? Kazu-kun, please move! Hey, Ui... I'm pretty sure it would be cheaper to just buy the Delicious Sticks. Let's see... Depending on your answer to these questions, the growth of your child will be altered in different ways. Let's raise a brilliant child together, Kazuma-san. Mine and Tsumugi-san's child... Y-Yeah! I'll do my best! Failure is the key to... This one is C, success. TL Note: Puns with "success." S-Sex? The poet Takahama Kyoshi created objective... This one's sketching. Objective sketching. Ejaculation... TL Note: Puns with "sketching." A hit batsman in Japanese... That would be a "dead ball." TL Note: Puns with "dead ball." Womb?! Kazuma-san, what's wrong? You've been acting a little strangely for a while... Oh, it's nothing. I'll just run to the bathroom for a sec. Everyone splits up to play games in the arcade. This is my chance to apologize to Hoshino. I'll do it once he's alone. Hoshino... Oh right... Sakai-senpai, here you go. Th-This is Bobopin... It matches the strap you already have, right? If you'd like Can I really have it?! Y-Yes, of course. Thank you. And we're finally here at the karaoke box! Everyone, let's Raze the roof! What should I eat? Let's see... At least pick some songs before you start looking at food! Sorry, but they have so much delicious-looking food here! I heard they serve great honeyto here. Honeyto? Oh, you mean the thick slice of toast with lots of honey and stuff like ice cream and fruit on Ui, you're drooling already? That wasn't me. S-Sorry! I love honey, you see... I've actually never heard of honeyto before, but this slice of toast, crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, served with sweet, dripping honey, ice cream and even fruit on top... The mere thought of such dream food is enough to...! Hinata, don't get your feelings get the better of you. You have to concentrate! Okay! I know, Captain... The observatory? Remember the first time when we came here? We messed up and ended up at that bus stop. Oh, there? Around there is an entrance to the trail which leads to the observatory. The scenery's beautiful. I had lots of fun sketching there and having lunch together with my friends from the club. I'd like to see such a nice place myself. Let's go then, Onii-chan! The observatory's a really great place! Ugh... I failed math and physics... Bro, don't worry about any of that. Really? What about you? Modern literature, Japanese history, and Sex Ed here. So you failed only three. Wrong, I only passed those three. You sure went all out. Well, having supplementary summer classes sucks, but we can't change what's already been done. That's right. You shouldn't be getting depressed over one or two or three or four or five or six subjects you failed. Actually, that's enough to be at least a little depressed about. By the way, I heard Hinata passed all the subjects. She lacks in bust size but her grades are good. Her boobs have nothing to do with this... Ibuki-chan must be amazing to get good grades regardless of her club activities. She's been stuck at the club every day since finals ended, too. The prefectural tournament's almost here, isn't it? It's this coming Sunday. All right! Let's all go cheer for her! Okay! What?! Tsumugi-senpai and Sakai-senpai aren't coming?! Mugi-nee has her part time job at Yorozuyo. And Sakai-senpai has to help out at her family's distillery. What the hell? This reduces the boob factor by half... Oh, well. This time, we'll need to have Ui and Madoka-chan fill in Hey, don't leave me! I think Ibuki-chan's match is about to begin. You guys didn't have to all come to cheer me on. I bet it took you forever just to get here. We certainly didn't think it would take us one and a half hours and three different trains to get to the city gymnasium... The preliminaries ended, but thank goodness we made it for the main rounds. Ibuki-san, I'll be cheering you on, so do your best in there! Thank you, Ayumu-kun. But if you're going to cheer for me, I would've preferred you wore your cheerleader outfit from the Hikonan Race. Th-That was just for the occasion... B-Besides, I don't have those clothes anymore... Sorry, I'm just kidding! Don't tease me, Ibuki-san! I thought Hinata would be really nervous, but she seems to have everything under control. Yup! She's got this one! But... What's wrong, Ui? I can't really put my finger on it, but... I somehow felt Ibuki-chan was trying too hard to act cheerful. Delivering stuff here is really difficult... The archery tournament should've started already. A little more than usual then... Good luck, Hinata. Hinata-senpai was really close. Yeah! If only the last one had hit! She did really well though, making it all the way to the finals... Isn't Hinata a little late? Before the main round started, Hinata-senpai told us to wait for her in the lobby, right? It's no use. It looks like Ibuki-chan turned off her cellphone. I wonder why Ibuki-san suddenly disappeared like that. Well, I can imagine why. Maybe she just wanted to be alone? You might be right. But if she's going somewhere, she could at least let us know where Oh, Ayumu. You just have to climb the trail to get to the observatory, right? Uh, yeah. There are signs along the way, so I think you'll know once you find it. Okay! You go home first! Onii-chan! I knew you'd be here! Hoshino... Why are you here? That's what I should be asking you. What's wrong? Why didn't you go home with us? Everyone was worried about you. Well... Is it because you lost at the finals? I was scared. I've been doing archery ever since middle school. I practiced so much... I even got to the finals of the tournament. But at the very end, when I thought about what might happen if that arrow were to miss... I got so scared all of a sudden... I had to concentrate. I knew that I had to be calm, but my fear just kept growing. I felt like running away. I didn't care about winning or losing. I just wanted to get out of there. Then my mind went blank, and before I knew it I'd let go of the arrow! I ran away! Never mind the competition, I couldn't even defeat myself. It was... It was so humiliating... I didn't want anyone to see me like this. That's why I came here. Hinata... Finals, I hate you! You scream from here when something bad happens, right? I'm such an idiot! Next time, Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, Episode Eight: The Punch Line is ! Ayumu, do you know what goes in the blank? Do you mean co... Wait, no ...okies? Thank you! No, you don't have to crack such jokes... Anyway, what else can you punch with? Let's see... Bi... Yeah, yeah! ...kes! That's right! Like vroom vroom and crash! What the hell?! I know! It's what you just said! Correct! ▶ [Tsundere] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 08 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][DD83F07C] Um, listen... Keep it a secret that I cried, okay? Never, ever tell anyone. I won't, Hinata. It'll be a secret between you and me. Thank you... Oh, and... Instead of calling me Hinata, you can call me Ibuki from now on. But why? Why? Well, because... Ibuki-chan! Ui. I knew you'd be at the observatory! Gosh, don't just go there without saying a word! Everyone was really worried Huh? Kazu-kun, why are you...? Good work. Is our place your last delivery? Then why don't you come in and have a drink? I need to go home and study. Oh, right. You're studying for college entrance exams. I guess this isn't the best time then... Yeah, yeah... Yup. I know, right? Well, my schedule's always open. The beach?! I'm going, I'm going, I'm totally going! I'm bored because I made no plans for the summer break! We're going next Tuesday then. I'll call you again once we figure out the details. Okay! Oh, and could you invite Ibuki for me? Tell her we're all going to the beach. Hey, Ui? What happened? Oh, okay! I'll ask Ibuki-chan. Wow, Madoka-chan. You volunteer at the library during the summer? Yes. I read books and present picture stories to the children. But that's not all of it. Kids love her because she often tells them her own stories! That's nice. I-I wouldn't say they love me... It's just that I liked making up stories ever since I was little, and they happen to like them too. But it's still amazing that you can come up with stories they can enjoy so much. So? Are you surprised?! That's not something you should be bragging about. What?! You can brag about the feats of your friends all you want! What's wrong if I'm the one bragging? By the way, Sakai-senpai, you're still studying? Students prepping for college have to push during the summer. Sorry, it almost seems like we forced you to come. Appropriate breaks are necessary, too. Besides... What's wrong with it, eh?! This could be my chance. If I get to be alone with Hoshino, I'll definitely apologize. It's the beach! Beach. Beach. Beach! Beach! Hold it! Don't get in the water before you're done stretching! Geez, kids these days... However, over here... ...very mature, indeed. Y-Yeah... Come on, Koumoto-senpai! Hurry up! I-I'm not ready yet! Koumoto-senpai, why are you hiding? You know very well that you can't hide those! Here! Huh? I'm not getting hurled away? Um, I've gotten to know you pretty well, so... I-I mean as a friend, of course! A-Anyway, I believe I shouldn't accidentally throw you at this level of contact anymore. Th-Then again, I-I... I-I can't guarantee anything if the contact were to be more severe... "Severe" contact? Madoka-chan, let me try. Oh, okay. Here you go. Th-Thank you very much... Let's go then. S-Sure... You demon! There! Take this, this, and this! Koyo-nee! Nooo! Counterattack, go! Tremble before the power of invention! Looks like you got the tunnels to connect. Onii-chan. Ibuki, I'm glad you're helping Ayumu, but are you sure you don't want to swim? Huh? It's not like I have to. There's no law that says you have to swim when you go to the beach. Onii-chan, just like me, Ibuki-san can't Ayumu-kun! So you can't swim. Shouldn't you float because of that oil around your rear, though? Stop bringing that up already! U-Use your backhand instead of your foot on the punchlines, thank you very much... There's nothing wrong with not being able to swim. But it's always good to learn something new. Let's practice swimming together. Sure, if you don't mind. Hinata, you should ask Hoshino to teach you as well. I won't last much longer... Yeah, just like that. Good, that's it. Now try dipping your face. D-Dipping my face where? Into the water, obviously... O-Okay. Yeah, like that. See, you're doing just fine. H-Hey... Are you o I thought I was going to die! Well, then just breathe... Then you should've said so! Besides, there's no way I can do something that complicated! I mean if I could, I'd be able to swim already! Oh, Ui-chan. Taking a break? I got thirsty so I was thinking of buying some shaved ice. Tsumugi-san, do you know where Kazu-kun is? We were playing together, but then he just suddenly disappeared. Kazuma-san is over there. Looks like he's teaching Ibuki-chan how to swim. Kazu-kun is teaching Ibuki-chan? That's good, Ui. Keep it up. What's wrong, Ui-chan? Oh, it's nothing! Well, I'll go buy that shaved ice. Ui-chan... Oh, Madoka-chan? Where's Tsumugi-san? Tsumugi-san went to do something. She asked me to watch the bags while she's gone. Aww, and I brought shaved ice for her too. Madoka-chan, do you want some? Can I have it? Yup! A-Are you all right? You shouldn't eat it that fast. I know, but it doesn't feel like I ate anything unless I do this. That hit the spot. I'm alone with Nakatsugawa-senpai right now. I might not get a chance like this again. Now's the time to ask her. N-Nakatsugawa-senpai... Yes? I-I don't know if I should be asking this, but... Go ahead. Then I'll ask... Wh-What do you think of Kazuma-san? What do you mean, what? W-Well... I-I'm asking whether you like him or not... O-Of course I don't hate him... I don't hate him... which means I like him... I like him, but you know... How should I say this? It's as liking your brother. Yeah, the same way I like my brother! As a brother? Madoka-chan, why did you want to know that? W-Well, how should I put it... You see... I'm back! A watermelon! I went to buy one at the shack so we could play some watermelon splitting. I'll go get everyone, then! Now that I recall it, I, Minamikokubaru Daigorou... ...learned of watermelon splitting ten and some years ago, when I was just three. Back in the day Nobody cares! The watermelon's getting warm! That's right! Fine, fine. Commence the watermelon splitting! All right! You really can't see anything, right? I can't. I can't see anything at all. Then you can't tell whose chest this is either, can you? It sure is flat. Is it Ibuki's? I told you to use your backhand... Here I go. To the right! The right! That's too far right! Not that way! Turn back! Right here. Or here? No, here! Ibuki, you cheater! You can definitely see! Off I go! Sniff sniff... Sniff sniff... Sniff sniff... Sniff... Right here! I can't believe she just sniffed her way to the watermelon. Nice one, Ui-cchu! This doesn't really feel like watermelon splitting, though... All right, it's time for beach volleyball! Let's decide on teams with rock-paper-scissors. Huh? Where did Sakai-senpai and Ayumu go? I don't know about Sakai-senpai, but Tsumugi-san said Ayumu was getting a little tired so he's taking a break. So you're saying Ayumu is alone with Tsumugi-senpai, under that parasol... Which means... Ayumu-kun. Could you rub some oil on me? S-Sure. Very nice, Ayumu-kun. You're doing great. Yes, just like that, all over my body. That's great! I-I'm done. All right, it's your turn next. I'll give you a nice rub... ...with my boobies. All nice and wet... Something along those lines As if! This still hurts, you know? Tsumugi-san? What is it? Tsumugi-san, is there something you want to buy? Why? I was wondering why you work part time at Yorozuyo. I see. I guess my working there is kind of a test run. A test run? I'd like to work at Yorozuyo when I'm older, you see. Do you know why? Uh, because you like it there? That's a part of it. But what I like isn't just Yorozuyo, but rather all of Yamabiko. Clean water, blue skies, and lots of greenery. And above all, the wonderful bonds the people here share. Perhaps I'm praising it too much. I feel the same way. Thank you. I work at the reception where we greet all the visitors, right? There, I can serve them everything we have to offer. Thanks to that they might want to visit my beloved Yamabiko again. By doing that, I'd like more people to fall in love with Yamabiko. It's a wonderful place. A place where you receive a warm welcome and where they treat you well, be it in good times or bad. That somehow sounds like Onii-chan. Huh? I'm like Kazuma-san? No, I mean the way Yamabiko is always there with you and is kind to you. Just like Onii-chan. But I've been just a dead weight on Onii-chan's shoulders ever since I was little... Don't say that, Ayumu-kun. I think Kazuma-san is doing his best to put a smile on your face. But if all that effort were to make you sad, I'm sure Kazuma-san would feel just as sad himself. If you want to thank him for everything he does for you, then perhaps instead of feeling bad about it, you should work just as hard to make Kazuma-san smile in your own way. Make Onii-chan smile... Okay! I don't know what I can do yet, but I'll try my best! So cute... Sakai-senpai! So that's where you were. Everyone's already changed and getting ready to go home. Let's go as well. They're waiting for us. I'm alone with Hoshino. It's my chance to apologize. Hoshino! What is it? U-Um... I'm sorry. There's no need to apologize about this. Anyway, let's go. That's not what I meant... Today was really fun! Yeah. I got pretty sunburnt. This is going to sting in the bathtub. Say, Ibuki-chan... When did Kazu-kun start calling you Ibuki? I-I wonder! When was it? I don't remember. But why do you ask? Th-There's no reason in particular! I was just... wondering. Oh, I see. Y-Yeah, that's all... Really, that's all. Man, this episode showed a lot of skin! Ayumu, ignore the idiot and do the preview. Okay! Next time, Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, Episode Nine: Hornets are Diurnal. Now, if Ayumu was in a micro bikini or the old school swimsuit, it would have been perfect! Neither of those are for guys. What about something guys do wear? Oh, I guess that would be All right, Ayumu! Next time you're wearing a loincloth! Yes, sir! Definitely not, sir! ▶ [Tsundere] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 09 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][926BBE92] How do you like our new parfait? It's sweet, cold, and absolutely delicious! Ui-chan, that's what you say every time. My ice cream! Sheesh, damn Daigo... He drags me all the way to Honchou... ...and then he gives me a tour of adult stores? Seriously? Sakai-senpai? Hoshino... What happened? Why are you sitting here all alone? Senpai! Do you have a fever? ...guess not. Then... what is it? I'm... hungry. I guess everyone eats that way when they are really hungry. Even you. Don't get me wrong. I actually think it's a good thing. Do you like girls who eat a lot? Well, uh... Anyway, how did you end up this way? You almost collapsed, you know. I ran away from home. Ran away?! Running away from home means leaving without permission from parents or guardians, with no intention of returning. I know what it means! I had a fight with my father and ran off. I didn't bring my wallet, a change of clothes... nothing. Then what are you planning to do? D-Don't give me those puppy eyes! Besides, they're only letting me stay at Yorozuyo to begin with. I understand. Thank you for the bread. I'll handle the rest myself. Senpai! I'm home... Senpai. So this is your room... It's cramped, but please feel free to stay here for a while. Oh, the ceiling's lower over there, so be care Onii-chan, you're back already? Y-Yeah, I'm back. Nee-san says it's dinnertime. Okay, got it. You're not coming? I have some stuff to take care of... Tell Nee-san that I'll be there right away. Okay. Senpai, what about dinner? I ate a lot back there, so I'll be fine for today. I see. Well, I'm going to eat, so just wait for a bit. Wipes Wet Senpai, sorry I kept you wai Kazuma-kun? What's wrong? I heard you shout. A-A hornet got into my room! Hornets are diurnal. They are not commonly seen at That really doesn't matter right now! Kazuma-kun, are you okay up there? I-I'm fine! It flew away! Wh-What in the world were you doing? I was all sweaty, so I wanted to wipe my body. Then you should've told me. I would've gotten a wet towel for you. It's okay now. I put my clothes on. Don't surprise me like that. If Nee-san finds you I forgot to put it back on. This is the life... Taking a long bath after a day of work really is the best. Well, Senpai, you can sleep here tonight. What about you? I'll sleep on the floor. I can't let you do that. I'm the guest here. I'll sleep on the floor. But I can't make a girl sleep on the floor while I take the bed... Let's do it like this then... We can sleep in it together this way. But this is a little, you know... Don't worry, I don't move around much in my sleep. Uh, but still... I won't kick you. Senpai, why did you argue with your father? Oh, it's fine if you don't want to tell me. I want to go to a university in Tokyo. My father is against it, though. He thinks I won't come back if I go to Tokyo. Just the smell of sake alone makes me dizzy, so making it is impossible for me. But I can help sell it. That's why I want to attend college and study marketing, product development, and such... And then I want to introduce our sake to lots of people in many different ways. Senpai, did you tell that to your father? I tried many times. The first time, he started shouting at me as soon as I mentioned attending a university in Tokyo. The next time, Mother and Father started arguing when I tried telling them. The next time, Father shouted at me again. The next time, we had another argument while I was partway through. The next time, a customer came by when I tried saying it. The next time, I was partway through when It's okay, I understand. So you haven't told him yet. I feel like I won't be able to for the rest of my life. That's not true. Once you find the right opportunity Oh, right. Hoshino. What is it? I'm sorry. Come on, it's all right. We should help each other when we're in trouble No, that's not what I meant. When we first met... You said my phone strap was cute, but I misinterpreted it and got mad at you. Don't mock me! I wanted to apologize this whole time... Yet it never worked out, and it really bothered me. Senpai... Look, you just told me something you weren't able to say before. I'm sure you'll be able to do the same with your father someday too. Hoshino... What is it? Thank you. Kazuma-kun, you really should wake up. You can't sleep in forever just because it's summer break. Kazuma-kun, are you awake? I'm coming in to get your futon. J-Just a moment! I understand the situation. I don't like the fact that you didn't discuss it with me first, but when a cornered bird flies into his pocket, the hunter... the hunter... the hunter... would be surprised? When a cornered bird flies into his pocket, the hunter will not shoot it. That's what I meant! Having said that, as the owner of Yorozuyo, I can't just ignore you when you're in trouble. However, he who does not work, does not eat. While you're here, I'm going to have you help out as a trainee. Got it? That looks pretty good on you. And why exactly do I have to do this? Tsumugi-san is on a family vacation since yesterday. I was just in need of some workers! Well then, I'm counting on you two. Welco Father! Hina! So it's true you were working part-time at Yorozuyo. Guess I'm doing the entrance next. Nee-san sure is a slave driver. No! I don't want to! I said come with me! Hey, stop that! Who the hell are you? And who are you? Stop it, Father. Father? Then you're You're that city kid... I see. You're the one who's making her do this. No, Hoshino has nothing to do with this. Shut up! You stay out of this! Shut up? It's because you keep screaming your head off at her that she never gets a chance to say anything. Are you trying to say something about me? Senpai is trying to get into college just so she can help with your work! What? She wants to let even more people know about the sake her family makes. That's why she wants to study all kinds of related subjects. Is that true, Hina? Then why didn't you tell me? Because you didn't let her say anything! Shut up! You stay out of this! I won't! You brat, acting all cocky just because you came from the city! Stop right there! Sakai-san, I ask you not to be violent on Yorozuyo grounds. This kid was getting in my face... But I'm still taking my daughter! Kazuma-kun is one of the important guests we're currently housing at this inn. Your daughter is here under his care, and therefore also a guest of Yorozuyo. Even if the Heavens flip upside down, I'm not letting anyone take our guests by force! S a k a i D i s t i l l e r y Hey. I got a call from the owner of Yorozuyo earlier. She said they're taking good care of our daughter, so we shouldn't worry. Are you listening? Stop pretending you're asleep. That's hot! What the hell are you doing?! See, I knew you were awake. You moron! Anyone would wake up from that! She also told me why Hina wants to continue her studies. She wants to help the family business, eh? Looks like it was worth the pain, knowing she grew up to be a good child. She's not only your kid. So, what will you do? About what? It's not that I don't understand how you want to keep your cute daughter close to home, but you should try considering her feelings a little too. I know that! I know that already... What? Yorozuyo Senpai's father challenged me to a duel? Well, it's just a tug-of-war. Tug-of-war? A cultural activity in this area. To settle a dispute between two villages, people would hold a tug-of-war duel between the strongest men of both villages at the Kotama Shrine. Until my grandmother's generation, two men would often have a duel over a girl... But I never thought someone would do it in this day and age. But why is he challenging me? Apparently, he thinks you're some kind of bad bug influencing his daughter. A bad bug? So, how about it? Are you going to accept it? Hoshino, you don't have to do it. I don't want to cause you any more trouble. Nah, I'll do it. I'll make that old fart cry like a baby! If Kazuma-kun wins, we'll do whatever we want. If Sakai-san wins, we'll quietly hand her back. Is that okay? Sure! Looks like they're ready. Nee-san, do I really have to wear this? Of course. This is a shrine ceremony, after all. You have to wear the customary clothes. Besides, why did so many people come to watch Onii-chan! Ayumu, why are you wearing it? Well, Nee-san said that if I'm seriously going to cheer you on, I should be wearing this. Listen well! This is a sacred match in front of a shrine! Give it everything you have. Young boys sure have nice rears! It's so smooth, I'm jealous. I wonder if we could trade it with my husband's dirty one? I know, right? I know, right? Ladies! You heard this is a sacred match! Stop watching it for the wrong reasons! Well then, both sides shall grab the rope! Begin! Onii-chan, you can do it! Hoshino... Come on, put some muscle into it, Sakai! Don't you lose to that squirt! It's starting to even out! Yeah! Father... Senpai... Please, make your dream come true! Match set! That's it! Onii-chan! Senpai? No... This is, well... S-Senpai? Are you all right? All right. Let's have our meal, then. Father isn't here yet. Let him be. Father's been in a bad mood ever since he lost the match. He won't even come out of his room. Maybe he still hasn't forgiven me. Oh, you're wrong. He was planning on challenging Hoshino and losing on purpose in the first place. Looks like he wanted to play the father who supports his daughter from behind the scenes. But he got serious during the match, ran out of stamina, and ended up the way he did. He's just annoyed because it didn't go as he planned, and it didn't make him look good at all. Heh, maybe it's his age. Back in the day, he could go for many rounds, though he was pretty fast... Hey, where are you going? Father... Are you still angry? Father, you're cute. You idiot, don't make fun of your parents! You're cute when you're embarrassed, too. Father... ...thank you. Ayumu-kun, it's about time for the preview. Oh, he's asleep. I guess I'll do it in his stead. Next time, Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, Episode Ten: The Ring Drifted Away, and... A dragonfly, it's a dragonfly... A dragonfly, eh? I wonder what kind of dream he's having. Now it's a rat snake! A rat snake? A cobra! It's Onii-chan's king cobra! Ayumu-kun, run away! ▶ [Tsundere] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 10 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][6F71C4E1] Hi, Madoka-chan. Hello. Is everyone here to pray? Oh yeah, haven't you heard yet, Madoka-chan? We just held a long-awaited contest of tug-of-war at the shrine. I went to the library early in the morning to tell stories to the children, so... But I think I heard Grandfather say something about that yesterday. Anyway, who fought whom in the tug-of-war? Sakai-san from the liquor store and... Right, the one who moved here from the city... Kazuma-san? Right, the boy that occasionally visits our store. Why did Kazuma-san have to have the tug-of-war with Old Man Sakai? Um... That's... I only came to watch since the boss said something about a tug-of-war. I also came because the waitress at Yorozuyo visited our store and told me about it, so I don't know the details. What? You guys got all fired up even though you don't know of the meaning it holds? Since time long past, the tug-of-war held in front of the shrine is always to compete for wives. Eh? So that means... Yup. Kazuma probably wants to marry the Sakai family's daughter, and her father is against it. I see. So they used his only daughter as the stake of this contest. How nostalgic. When I married my wife, her father was really against it too. Then it turned into a contest of tug-of-war in front of the shrine. Then, we called the tug-of-war a tug-of-wife. So that means Kazuma-san is involved with Sakai-senpai... Hi, who is this? Bro, it's me. Huh, it's just Daigo. Please, help me! Huh? Hello, auntie! Ah, Koyori-chan. You're back from your trip. Did you have fun in Hawaii? Uh-huh. I also brought some local goods back. Where's Madoka? She's at home, but she seems to be a little unwell. She's sick? It's not that serious. It's probably just the heat. But... Oh right, she became really depressed after she heard about the tug-of-war. Tug-of-war? The one used in place of fighting? But why? I dunno. But, I think she would brighten up if she sees you, so why not go and say hello to her? Okay. Ah, I see. She became depressed after the tug-of-war. Then, it must be because of Kazuma-kun. What? Did Kazuma do something to Madoka? No, not like that. Listen up, Koyori-chan. The tug-of-war in front of the shrine used to be called the tug-of-wives. That's calling the rope the wife... I'm very glad to see everyone joining this "Piled Up Summer Homework Emergency Meeting". To meaningfully experience what is left of our summer holidays, we have to complete our summer homework first... Are you in here, Kazuma?! I'm here; what is it? Kazuma! You bastard... Is it true that you're marrying Hina-cchi? Huh? Marry? What the hell?! So Kazuma isn't marrying Hina-chan. Of course I'm not! How the hell did that misunderstanding come about? I really didn't know that such a thing happened. If you had told me, I would've gone to cheer for you. Ah, never mind... Standing up for a senpai, you actually have some good traits. I did go to Hawaii, but to think that I actually missed such an interesting event! It's the life-long regret of Yamabiko Town's number one gossip. Onii-chan looked so cool in his loincloth. Hey, Ayumu, don't say too much! Okay, I'll go tell Madoka about this! Why do you have to tell Madoka? Well, because Madoka got really depressed after the tug-of-war... ...and the old man said that it was because Kazuma had to marry Hina-cchi. So if I tell her that none of this happened, she'll... Wait a minute! So this means that Madoka-chan... ...likes Kazuma?! Is that what it means?! Why are you asking me? I say, you came here to pick a fight without even understanding the full story? It's because Koyo-nee doesn't think things through before acting. Anyway, I'll go tell Madoka right now! Hey, Koyori! They're gone... But it's getting interesting now. Right? So, what happened, then? Calling me out on this hot day, I won't forgive you if it's something boring. Right, if it's something boring, it has to be cold, sweet, and delicious. Ui, decide whether to whine or talk about your revelations on dessert. Daigo-senpai, other than that... That's right. What I want to discuss is my idea to get my bro and Madoka-chan together. I want everyone to help out. You all know that Madoka-chan is a really introverted girl. Also, even though my bro is from the city, he's surprisingly pure and naive. Since we're all friends, let us be their Cupid of love- How boring. What? Are you against it, Hinata? Against what? Why do we have to do this kind of thing? Why? 'Cause we're friends. What's wrong with giving a hand? Anyway, I won't help. Ibuki-chan! Wait! Wait up, Ibuki-chan! What's wrong, Ibuki-chan? That's really not like you. Are you saying you're fine with it, Ui? Getting that guy and Madoka-chan together. That's... That's really... To me, Kazu-kun is like a big brother. So that's why... I understand. If Ui says that, then it's fine. Ibuki-chan. I... I... I'm going out with Kazuma-san?! Yes. We all discussed it with Daigo-senpai, and decided to support Koumoto-senpai's love. L-L-Love?! We thought of a really great battle plan. It's guaranteed to be successful! We told Hoshino-oniisan that we're all going to the amusement park. Then on that day, we'll find an excuse and not be able to go. Senpai can enjoy a date with just the two of you! D-D-Date?! The details of the plan are all written in here. Remember to read it before you go. Anyway, what happened? Daigo, Koyori, and Kasane-chan are all suddenly unable to come. R-Right! What happened? Ui and Ibuki said they had something else going on, so we didn't ask them. Ayumu and the students in the Art Club went to a sketching exhibition. So it's just the two of us. Let's enjoy ourselves as much as possible on this rare occasion in place of those who couldn't come. Yes! The atmosphere looks good. Yeah... The atmosphere is good, but do I really have to dress up like this? Of course, Daigo-senpai and I both came in disguise. Koyo-nee has to do so too. So, what do you want to ride first, Madoka-chan? Let's see... I remember that the date guide said to ride the rollercoaster first. Then, let's try the rollercoaster... How surprising. I thought you weren't too fond of these things. That's... That's not true... Nice one, Koumoto-senpai. Through riding the rollercoaster, using the momentum from the exhilaration, they can have uninhibited conversation between each other. Let me down! Let me down! Mommy!!! Are you all right? Madoka-chan, do you really wanna go in this one now? O-Of course. I'm a girl of the shrine, so I don't have a problem with ghosts and spirits. Next is the couples' regular: the haunted house! Pretend to be frightened when inside. Cry out, then hold him, and you will certainly grow closer! Madoka-chan, it's all right now. S-Sorry! Kazuma-san, Kazuma-san! It's eating! It's eating! Next is the petting zoo! Feeding the cute bunnies, and touching each other's hands accidentally, then naturally becoming a touch-your-lover zoo! OK, then I'll... This guy is just as hungry as Ui. They always say that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Using a large-portioned homemade bento to catch the starving boy's heart. Did you make all of this, Madoka-chan? Yes. I made them with all my heart early in the morning. I hope you like it. If Ui saw this bento, she would drool with happiness. Thanks for the meal! This is delicious! Wow, you do realize how high this is when you reach the top! Madoka-chan, we had so much fun today. Yes! Really fun... Next time, let's get everyone here. Right, we can come here again with everyone else. They're here! Why does Madoka look depressed? Children are indeed naive. What did you say? What do you mean by that, Daigoro? I hypothesize that there is a slight feeling of distance caused by embarrassment after a kiss. Wow! Madoka and Kazuma kissed?! Probably. S-S-So, they're gonna get married?! No, it won't happen that fast... B-But they've kissed already! Then are they gonna have a kid? If it's like that, then won't they get married?! Wh-What? What's so funny?! This isn't the time to laugh! Kazuma-san. M-Madoka-chan, your outfit is a little... I wanted to change my mood, so I borrowed these from Koyori-chan. Is it weird? Ah, no, nothing like that! I was just a little surprised since you look a little different from what I'm used to. Why did you suddenly ask me out on a trip like that? Only the two of us, too. That's because... Well... Ah, the bus is here! It's great that we made it. We would have to wait a long time if we missed this bus. Ah, right... This is the path up the mountain that Ayumu talked about, eh? Instead of calling it a path up the mountain, it's more of a hiking trail. Even children can take this trail if they want. I played around here by myself when I was a child too. Eh, really? This is where... Kazuma-san, hurry up! I'll lay out the sheet now. Could it be that you're the one from my memories? Because I'm not too good with boys, I've never been close with the children nearby. So I always played here by myself. One day, when I was playing here like usual, a boy I didn't know came here. He was really different from the other kids nearby. He was gentle and cool. To me, he was just like a prince! Although I only played with him once, I couldn't forget him. In my mind, I went through the memories of playing with him again and again. Then, it felt like I had been playing with him every day. Now that I think of it, perhaps that was... love at first sight? Why didn't you tell me when we first met? Right, that's true... ...but it was too sudden when I saw you in front of my family shrine. I didn't know what to do. Oh right, then various things happened after that. You didn't really have a suitable time to say it. That's one of the reasons too, but I thought you might remember even if I didn't say it. I wished that you would have even a hundredth of the feelings I have towards you. Even a thousandth would have been enough. I wished that you would remember me. I wanted to have a small place within your heart, even if it's just a little. Today's outfit was because I wanted to be dressed the same as that day. Maybe you would remember this way. Sorry, I didn't know what you had thought of me all this time. It was during my childhood, so I even forgot the name that I must have asked for. Besides, your hair was really short then. You had a totally different air around you from what you have now. It's all right. It's more than enough that you can remember. Madoka-chan, I... I understand your feelings. Kazuma-san, do you still remember? What you said to me when we were saying goodbye that day? Madoka-chan... Please say the same thing to me again. It's weird. It's not like we're going to bid each other farewell. Why am I crying? That's right, Madoka-chan. We'll be friends forever, won't we? Next episode, Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, Episode 11: In the Rain. ▶ [Tsundere] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 11 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][81B07A6A] Dumping Madoka-chan like that was such a shame. It's not about dumping her. How many times do I have to tell you that Madoka-chan didn't have that kind of relationship with me? Actually, that's all you've been saying since school started. Think about it; we're talking about the Madoka-chan here! That, that...! Bouncing, bouncing, and jiggling! Good morning. M-Morning. Good morning, Madoka-chan. So this year's festival will have Tsumugi-san performing as the goddess? Yup. Hina-senpai and I will be escorts. Oh, you mean like walking beside the goddess? Since you decided to participate, why didn't you try out for the goddess part? Hoshino's acting as the male god this year, right? Why don't you courageously confess to him at the ritual? Wh-What are you saying, Ibuki-chan? Although I've heard of proposals at the ritual, ...and the confession is supposed to be from the male god. This is the era of gender equality. It's fine if the goddess speaks first. Ah, that's right. No way! Besides, Kazu-kun is- Um... How should I put this...? He feels more like a big brother... Confessing is a bit... um... While you're brooding over that, someone might snatch him away from you. Who's that "someone"? Hina-senpai or Koyori-chan, perhaps. No way. Also... ...perhaps I will? I'm just joking! What? That was a joke? Don't say such things; you scared me for a second there. A joke... huh? Confessing, you say...? I won't know what to say if you bring it up so suddenly. Also, if he accepts my confession... ...then, then, perhaps- Yes, I'll pick it up now. Hello? Ah, it's Ayumu-kun? I'm going to be the model?! What a lazy bug. Good morning. It's already noon. Even if it is Sunday, you're slacking off too much. Sorry, I went to sleep really late last night... What is it? Perhaps it's déjà vu... I feel like I've had this conversation before. What déjà vu are you talking about? Wasn't every Sunday like this ever since you started living here? Well, why don't you eat breakfast already and go out for a walk? You'll only be getting in the way of cleaning if you stay here. Yes... All right, I'm leaving. See you later, and do take your time. Ayumu-kun! A walk, you say? Maybe I'll just go to the shrine. No, I'll go to the shopping district instead. Huh, Ibuki? H-Hoshino. What are you doing here? I'm not doing anything in particular. I'm just... ...hanging out. Then we're passengers of the same boat. You want some? No way. I definitely do not want to have an indirect kiss with you. Don't you play with Ui when you have free time? I usually do, but she said she has something going on today. I see. Also, if I'm alone with her now, I might say something weird. Oh, right! Hey, you want to go play downtown? Just us two? When I couldn't go because of club activities, didn't all of you go have fun downtown? You can make up for that today. Okay, then I'll think of it as your revenge! Yup! Excuse me. Sorry for having you come over on a holiday. No, I had nothing to do anyway. I'll take out the tools now. Then, I'll... Wh-Why are you stripping?! Oh, I'm so sorry! I thought to be an art model was to be a nude model... It's not like that! Singing so much made me really thirsty. Come in. Excuse me. So this is the legendary Honey Tower! Huh? Did we order these? Today is Couples' Day, so this is on the house. Couple?! We can also take a photo of the two of you when you drink it as a memento... Would you like me to? Ui-san, let's take a small break. You really have to eat this kind of snack in this season! It must have been tiring to sit there for so long. I'm sorry. It isn't that tiring, but my shoulders are a little sore. I thought I'd tell you beforehand; I'm actually planning to give this portrait to Onii-chan as a present after it's finished. Eh? To Kazu-kun? I can't? It's not that you can't, but why? During the summer vacation, Tsumugi-san told me this when we all went to the beach. Don't say that, Ayumu-kun. I think Kazuma-san is doing his best to put a smile on your face. But if all that effort were to make you sad, I'm sure Kazuma-san would feel just as sad himself. If you want to thank him for everything he does for you, then perhaps instead of feeling bad about it, you should work just as hard to make Kazuma-san smile in your own way. So I thought about what I should do for Onii-chan to be happy. Then, I thought of how happy Onii-chan was when I was little and gave my drawings to him, so... "What you can do to make Onii-chan happy..." Why did you have to get me as the model, though? Weren't you going out with Onii-chan? So I thought he would be happy if I gave him a picture of the girl he likes. Did I misunderstand? Kasane-chan said that the reason Onii-chan isn't going out with Madoka-san was because he's already going out with Ui-san, so I thought... No way, I haven't gone out with Kazu-kun yet- Actually, Kazu-kun is like a big brother to me. That's not true. Tsumugi-san. Kazuma-san is Ayumu-kun's big brother, not yours. Oh, this portrait is quite skillfully drawn. I'm sure Kazuma-san will be happy when you finish it. Keep on working hard. Thank you so much for today. Oh, and please keep this a secret from Onii-chan. Y-Yeah, that's fine. This is just hypothetically speaking, but... If I really do go out with Kazu-kun, would you be fine with that? Because if I started going out with Kazu-kun, it would be like taking your big brother away from you. W-Would you still be fine with it? That's true, I might start to feel a bit lonely because of that. However, if Onii-chan can be happy like that, I'll be happy too. Ah, that was so much fun. Looks like you got your revenge. Look at what you're drinking. Could it be... ...you wanted to have that cream soda with me? Don't be an idiot! Why would I want that?! Maybe we really do look like a couple to others. If so, why not become one for real? What are you saying? Stop joking like that. Right, sorry for saying something weird like that. It was just a joke... A... joke... Maybe we really do look like a couple to others. If so, why not become one for real? Right, sorry for saying something weird like that. Ibuki! Sorry! Um... If... If I misunderstood, then this would be quite embarrassing, but talking about becoming a couple just now... If you were serious, then I'm really sorry! It was too sudden, so I didn't know what to say. So I just... Idiot. Of course... Of course that was a joke. Yet you came running back. What an idiot. Even though there's no way I could have been serious... I'm home. Welcome home. Ah, you're soaked through. Yeah... I just had a cold shower. "What I can do to make Onii-chan happy?", huh? I really like Onii-chan... ...but I couldn't make him happy. Instead, I made Onii-chan, and his wife Kuriko-san, sad. Why couldn't I say "Congratulations," back then? If I congratulated him, Onii-chan would have been happy. That's true. Although it might be too late, even though it might not make him happy anymore, I can still give him a call. Then, I can congratulate him as I couldn't before. Hey, Onii-chan. It's me! Ah, you're right on time, I wanted to call you at the same time. Listen to me, Onii-chan. I have something I want to tell you. So, this might surprise you a little, but I wanted to say it no matter what! So, um... um... um... Anyway, congratulations! You really surprised me. How did you know? Kuriko's pregnant. We found out after going to the hospital today. I wanted to call you, and then you called me first. Hey, Ui, can you say what you just said to Kuriko as well? Yeah! Ah, you're up early today. Do you have morning practice with the Archery Club? No, I just have a little something to do. Really? Did you have breakfast yet? Well, I'm leaving. Hoshino Kazuma, you... ...idiot!!! Dense, stubborn moron!!! All right! Ibuki-chan! Ibuki-chan! Ui, what's going on- Listen to me, listen to me! Pregnant! Then, I'm going to become an aunt! Hey, slow down and talk. Because, because, Onii-chan has a child... Oh, Onii-chan isn't the one with a child, that's his wife... Yes, I know. Then, you became an aunt! Yup! Next Episode, Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, Final Episode: Bridge that Leads Toward the Night Sky. It's finally the last episode. So many things happened when you think about it. Like the smell of cheese, and how sticking an acorn inside hurts. Like Nyanbobo is pink, and being attacked by Onii-chan's king cobra. It's not underwear, but a loincloth, so there's nothing embarrassing. Although there were rumors of impure homosexual love, we still have to use this as a finale! Little Brother Love is justice! No matter how you write it, it's justice! ▶ [Tsundere] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 12 [BDRip h264 1920x1080 10bit FLAC][D2B1FC88] Domestic Safety ROAD SAFETY What?! I'm supposed to be the male god for the festival?! How did that happen? How, you ask? The person who wins the Hikonan race acts as the male god. That's the rule. Didn't I tell you? You never did. Also, it was totally Koyori who won the race. No matter how much of a tomboy Koyori-chan is, she's still a girl, so of course she can't be the male god. Well, that's true. That's why you will perform since you were the first among the boys. It's a great honor to be the representative of the men in Yamabiko Town. Do it well. But is it all right to let an outsider like me perform such an important part? What are you saying? That's even better. Although this festival is about the legend of the twin mountains, the ambassador of the god above also represents accepting new blood from outside the village, receiving good fortune. So boys like you who bring in new seeds from afar fit the original purpose of performing as the male god. What the hell are you talking about this early in the morning?! Onii-chan, what are seeds? Well, that's... Ayumu-kun, what we call seeds... Nee-san! How jolly awesome that you get to be the god in the festival! Really? Seriously, Tsumugi-san is the goddess! Those things, bouncing and jiggling... Is that all you think about? Hey, broski, how 'bout you take this chance to confess? What does that have to do with anything?! It's an old custom, idiot. The god can confess to the goddess during the greeting ceremony in the festival. Really? Tsumugi-san is exceptional, even as a goddess, and almost all of those selected to be the goddess in the festival are the most beautiful girls in town. That way, there's a lot of guys wanting to make some advances toward her. Also, the Hikonan race seems to have originated as a contest for the right to confess. In our grandparents' time, getting together because of a confession in the festival was commonplace. There's also a legend that if the confession is accepted, the following year would bring about an abundant harvest. But even so, why would I ask Tsumugi-san out? G-Good morning! What are you guys talking about? What about Tsumugi-san? No, nothing much. Good morning. Oh, good morning. Seriously, Mom talks way too much for me. Broski, what're we doing today? Are we all going to Bagpipe? I'll pass, since I have club activities. Me too. I have to go to the shrine and try on the robes for the festival later. So Ui too, then? Mm, that's right. Tch, oh well. I guess I'll head back all alone. Are you lonely being all by yourself? I'll go with you, then. You seem to be slacking off lately because of the upcoming festival. I'll educate you! Hey, Mom! TL Note: If you didn't get the joke, I didn't either. Come with me; it's time for a parent-teacher meeting! I was quite surprised when I was selected to be the god in the festival. Th-That's true, it really did. Um... Uh... What? No, you go first. No, it's nothing. No conversation. How long have you been there? You could at least say hello! What is it? You will be late if you don't hurry. Whoa, it suits you well! You have a manly air around you. Th-Thanks. I'll take a quick snapshot right now! Kasane-chan, besides taking photos, why are you here? I'm interviewing. As the number one gossip of Yamabiko, I cannot let such interesting events pass by unattended. Before you ask, let me explain it to you. It's not like I want to take photos of Mugi-nee as a goddess and then sell them at a high price to all the guys in high school. I didn't think of that at all! Sorry for making you wait. Wow, Mugi-nee is so pretty! Thank you, Kasane-chan. Hina-senpai and Nakatsugawa-senpai also look great as shrine maidens! Thank you for waiting. Here is your tea. Sorry for making a guest help out. It's fine. Are your shoulders sore from wearing uncomfortable clothes? No, not really. Where's Nakatsugawa-senpai? She went to the bathroom. She said she was holding it in while she was trying on the robes. Ah, she could've just said so. Um, I'll go to the bathroom too. That's right, you will be acting as the Emissary of Heaven this year. Yes, the daily dance practice is tough. You're not going to try on the robes? I am, but I don't have to do it right now. I want to see what you look like as the Emissary of Heaven! I know, could you strike a pose in the prayer hall and let me take a photo? That's a good idea, since you have to try on the robes anyway. It's decided, then! We'll go to the prayer hall after we finish dessert. Ui-chan. Tsumugi-san. Let's have a little chat. Ui-chan, did you get into an argument with Kazuma-san? What's bothering you? It seems to me that you two are acting a little out of the ordinary. That's... I'm sorry. You don't have to tell me if you don't want to. I understand now. I've always treated Kazu-kun like a brother, so I was happy and felt at ease when we were together. But I already have a big brother. I understand that Kazu-kun can't be one, either. Suddenly, I couldn't talk to Kazu-kun like I could before. Just our eyes meeting makes my chest tighten. When I'm alone at home, too. I blush when I think of him. Ui-chan, that's love. N-No, that's not it! I-It's not like that... I-It's just that my heartbeat gets faster when I think of Kazu-kun. So that's not l-l-love! Not at all, I'm telling you! I mean... Ui and Tsumugi-san are really taking their time. Did something happen? Why didn't you say Ui was cute? Wh-What are you saying all of a sudden? You thought Ui looked really cute earlier, but you didn't say anything. Why? "Why", you say? After I left home and my father came to get me, you said the things I wanted to in my stead. That made me really happy. But later, I still felt that I have to get my feelings across by saying it myself. I always wanted to apologize for getting angry at you because of the misunderstanding when I first met you. That's why I was happy that I could do it right. If you have something you need to say to convey your feelings, you should just say it. Hina-senpai... Ui-chan, that's love. Love, huh? I don't understand that! I don't understand love! That's the third time this morning. What happened? I stayed up a little late last night. Are you all right? You still have practice for the festival after school. Mm, I'll take a nap during afternoon break. It'll be fine. So, I'll describe the basics of the procedure. We'll tell you the details later. Anyway, just remember all of the following for now. First would be Madoka's dance as the Emissary of Heaven in the prayer hall. After that is over, the male god waiting below the steps will receive the summons from the Emissary of Heaven. Then, the god will walk down the stone steps and board the float waiting on the path below. We'll match the times and have the goddess and her attendants set out on their float at the town center, too. Tsumugi-chan has experience as an assistant, so it should be all right. Yes. Your side will be notified once the god's float leaves. We'll match the times and have the goddess and the attendants set out on their float too at the town center. When both floats are nearing the bridge, the taiko drums will start playing as a signal. The greeting ritual will begin there. The god will have the summons received from the Emissary of Heaven. The goddess will have the prayers given to her by the representative of the shrine. Both will read them out loud. It seems that every year the summons is written by the person acting as the Emissary. Yes, it's written with ink that is ground using dew gathered on the morning of the festival. So you will write those ornate words, Komoto-senpai? Um, I have a question. What is it, Kazuma-kun? Ornate refers to the grass script, right? I can't read that kind of script at all. It's all right. On both the summons and the prayers, there will be a reading aid beside the grass script passage. Oh, so that's how it is. Are you satisfied? Yes, I can just read it like that. Even so, don't be careless. Although you're reading off of something, you have to put your heart into your words to make them sound true for the goddess. "Put your heart into your words to make them sound true for the goddess." Over here, shake, shake... Turn around, then... Hello— Hello? Tsumugi-senpai? Huh? Faking illness? It's almost time. Everyone, please change in the changing room. Ah, well then. What's wrong, Mugi-nee? My stomach suddenly... Huh? A-A doctor! Ah, an ambulance! It's okay, Ui-chan. I think I'll be fine after resting for a while. But... Besides, the festival goddess... No way, Mugi-nee. We should ask someone to step in as a replacement. Ui-chan, can I leave it to you? Th-There's no way I can step in this suddenly! How could I be the goddess? You've been practicing with me all this time, so you should know the procedure. You just have to do it like that. Please... B-But there'll be one less attendant that way. That's all right. There's a replacement for an attendant right here. Me? No, no, no, no! You have been reporting on our rehearsals, so you should be familiar with the process as well. Th-That's true, but... This is an emergency! Are you going to do it or will you be doing it? Choose either of the two! Please let me do it! Onii-chan, don't get nervous! I love Ui Although you're reading off of something, you have to put your heart into your words to make them sound true for the goddess. If you have something you need to say to convey your feelings, you should just say it. I...! I love Ui! I-It wasn't love at first sight, but all of a sudden I... How should I put it? When we're together is when I'm the most... A-Anyway, I love you! Ui, answer him! I love... We can't hear you! Speak louder! Me too. I love you too, Kazu-kun! Louder, Ui! I love you too! I love you so very much! All right, there's plenty of wine and dishes. Speak up if you don't have enough. Sorry for barging in with a bunch of people wanting a drink. What in the world are you talking about? We should be thanking you for letting us provide the celebratory wine for the festival. However, if you fuck around after getting drunk, I won't show you any mercy! Anyway, I never thought I'd see another confession at the greeting ritual. It reminds people of all the things you did back then. Too bad you got dumped. Gen-san, that story's a little... Another glass! Um, most honored mother... You've already drunk a lot. Any more and... Hey, bitch, you've got a bone to pick with your elders? Besides, I only drink because you make me worry so much! Do you understand that? I understand. Well then, fill 'er up! Right away! Wow, so you can draw, Ayumu-kun. Maybe you can draw something for me next time. I'm pretty amazing when I'm stripped naked, you know? Ayumu is so cute! Hey, Koyo-nee, what's up with that? Isn't it nice? I got it from the ring-toss at the open booths. It's really cute! Wait! Th-That's— How delicious! Mugi-nee, didn't you have a stomachache? Oh, did I? We sure got rejected. Sure did. N-Not me! I was never... Putting it like that is... Oh well. We finally get to see it. The bridge to the starry skies. Yea. How beautiful. Yes. Really beautiful.

Doki-Chihiro ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 01v2 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [C5A1141E] Huh? Ah! You’re awake, Onii-chan. Eh? Yeah. What’s up, Ayumu? Did you see something? Do you want me to carry the luggage? It’s fine. There’s not that much. We’ve finally arrived! It seems like a pretty quiet place, doesn’t it? I don’t know if it’s quiet, or because it’s the countryside... But, I know the air is really clean, too. It’ll be good for your body, Ayumu. Yep. Let’s see... So, there’s a bus stop at Yamabiko Station. Ayumu, let’s get on that one. All right. Thank goodness the bus came at such a good time. Yep. Onii-chan, you’ve been to Yamabiko before, right? Yeah, Dad used to take me here. And like your last time, we’ll be staying at the Yorozuyo Inn, so we’ll get a nice welcome there, right? Yep. So, what kind of place is it? Eh? I’ve only stayed over there once, so I don’t remember very well. If I remember correctly... ...it was an old style building, just like always. In front of it was a beautiful river. There were lots of plants in the garden. Even though it was my first time there, it felt nostalgic. It seems like Dad was friends with the previous owner, so that’s why they’re taking us in. I see. Ayumu, what’s wrong? I think this bus is going in the opposite direction from Yorozuyo. What? Because Yorozuyo is in the direction of Yamabiko. Onii-chan, the next bus is... ...not going to be here for another hour?! The countryside is a scary place. The bus isn’t coming, is it? It’s already been an hour, and it still hasn’t shown up. Hey, look, Onii-chan! What’s up, Ayumu? Look over there. It’s a monkey! Eh? A monkey? Come here, come here! Onii-chan, it’s coming! The monkey’s coming! Oh yeah, that’s right. I still have some leftover snacks. Hey! Hey, wait! Onii-chan! How dare you make fun of me! All right. If it’s not that deep... Stop making a fool out of me! Damn! Stop running around! Geez... Making me put so much effort into it... Ouch... Onii-chan, you’re taking so long... It looks like I’m lost... There aren’t any bears in this place, right? Hey... You’re a girl? Yes... I am. Ah, so you’re lost. How embarrassing. By the way, why were you over there? I was collecting wild vegetables. There’s tempura, ohitashi, and sumiso-ae. They go great with miso soup... ...and they’re delicious with rice, too! I see. If you go through there, go straight until you come to a split road. Continue down that road and you’ll arrive at the bus stop on the foot of the mountain. Sorry for making you give me directions. You helped me out. It’s only natural for me to help someone who’s in trouble. Besides, if you were wandering around in there, it would be dangerous if you came across a bear! So, there are bears... I’m going to demonstrate how to get across. Make sure you watch carefully! How was it? Did you watch carefully? N-No! I didn’t see it! Actually, I did see it, but I didn’t... All right then, I’m coming over too! Ah, no, it was an accident! You big pervert! What the hell are you doing all of a sudden? That should be my line! You grabbed a girl in a secluded place, forcefully pushed her down, and even k-kissed her! No, I already said it was an accident! Eh? Accident? Even if it was an accident, the police still need to be involved! I’m going to call the police. You better be prepared! Wait, Ibuki-chan! He’s telling the truth! It really was an accident! Ui... Continue down that road and you’ll arrive at the bus stop on the foot of the mountain. Ah, I get it. All right then... It’s fine. Just leave already, you pervert! Onii-chan! What’s wrong, Onii-chan? What on Earth happened? Well, a lot of things... So, this is Yorozuyo. It doesn’t really look like the old building that it used to be, does it? Well, I stayed here a long time ago. It’s probably been rebuilt. Welcome to Yorozuyo. Don’t tell me... It’s Kazuma-kun? Hoshino-sensei’s son? Eh? Yeah... You took so long, so we were all worried! If you called me after you had arrived at the station, I would have come and picked you up. So, this must be your little brother, Ayumu-kun, right? It’s true that you’re growing slowly, but unlike where you live, the air here is fresh and the food and water are delicious. You’ll become healthy in no time! Um... Ah, what happened to you? You should have a bath as soon as possible. Ah, before that, let me take you two to your rooms. Follow me. Both of you can stay at the older section. There are no other customers here, so feel free to make yourselves at home. The only problem is, the bath is in the new building. Um, Oba-san. Oba... -san? Ah! Um... Ojou-san. You don’t have to go that far... Calling me "Onee-san" would be fine. Is there a problem? Absolutely not! Please let us call you "Nee-san"! Nee-san is a bit... Oh well. So, do you have any questions? It’s a bit late, but maybe you’re the landlady, Nee-san? Oh, sorry! I haven’t introduced myself yet. I am Yorozu Senka, the landlady of Yorozuyo. From now on, I’ll be your guardian in place of Hoshino-sensei. Pleased to meet you. So, this is the old building. The main entrance used to be here. After the new building was built three years ago, it became the back entrance. Yorozuyo seems to be a nice place, doesn’t it? Yeah. This is Kazuma-kun’s room. Ah, the ceiling is designed like this! It’s quite interesting. Ayumu-kun’s room is on the other side of the corridor. There are other rooms, but it’s better for it to be closer, right? Yeah. As the landlady, I was going to get you some tea, but you should have a bath first, Kazuma-kun. It’s great that I can have a bath in this big bathhouse every day! I’m sorry! Honestly... What’s going on? Oh my... It’s pink. I can no longer be a groom... Onii-chan, I’m coming in. What’s up, Ayumu? Nee-san made dinner, and told us to go downstairs. Tonight is your welcoming party, so dinner’s a bit extravagant. The main dish will be served on a naked woman with striptease wine. Wait, Nee-san! Sorry, sorry! You can’t drink because you’re underage, right? No, no! That’s not the problem here. All right! Get ready! Don’t look, Ayumu! You mustn’t look! Eh? Why? Really! You take things too seriously, Kazuma-kun. Perhaps you were expecting something else? Nee-san... So many things happened today... I fell down from a tree... I got kicked... I saw... I was seen... I was seen... And also... I should have asked her for her name... Onii-chan, are you awake? Ayumu? What’s up? Why are you holding your pillow? Maybe since it’s your first time sleeping alone in an unfamiliar place, so you want to sleep with me? No way... So it’s true. Can’t I? I guess you’ll have to. But, only for tonight, okay? Yep! I’m turning off the lights! Good night, Onii-chan. Good night. Thanks for the food! My, my. Was that enough? Yep. I’m full. Really? Morning! The guide is here! Guide? You don’t know the way to school yet, right? That’s why I asked a girl to go with you. Her name is Toudou Tsumugi. She also goes to Yamabiko High, where she’s a third year. In other words, she’s your upper-class. She’s been working here for a while. Kazuma-kun, you met her yesterday, right? Eh? I am very sorry about what happened! It’s all right. To be honest, I didn’t see anything. Ah, certainly. At that size, it’s hard to see. That’s harsh! So, you’ve come to Yamabiko because of Ayumu-kun? Ayumu’s body is a bit weak. Dad said it’d be better for him to live somewhere with cleaner air. Your dad is a novelist, isn’t he? Yeah. However, my parents planned to buy a house here and thought about moving in, but they couldn’t because of work and other reasons. There’s a school in the area, so they wanted us to come here first to get settled in. That’s why we’re here now. I see. Ayumu-kun’s school is across this bridge. And, on this side, is our Yamabiko South Academy. Ayumu-kun, from here on, it’s a straight road. If you follow people wearing your uniform, you won’t get lost. Yep. I’ll be fine on my own. I’ll be off then, Onii-chan. Okay. Take care. So, it’s about time... I guess so... Ui? I said, Ui! Eh? What’s up? What’s wrong? You look more spaced out than usual. Maybe you’re still bothered by what happened yesterday? Of course not! I’m totally not bothered by what happened! Really? If you say so. Everyone, be quiet! Some of you already know this, but we have a new student joining us today. Hoshino! Come in. In that case, maybe... The new season features a cute little brother in episode 1 of a new anime: Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi. Did you enjoy it? Wait... Nee-san, what weird stuff are you talking about? It’s not weird! Loving your little brother is moral! Moral in a way that doesn’t involve sex. Then, Ayumu-kun, you have to do next episode’s preview properly. Next time, on episode 2 of Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi: This shouldn’t taste like cheese! Which part of my body would taste like cheese? S-So... Look forward to next week! ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 02v2 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [1853829F] The way you eat it makes it seem delicious, Ui. Ui loves cake! Also, I love Onii-chan a whole, whole lot! Thank you! You’ve got cream on your mouth, Ui. I see. Yesterday... I... Hoshino! Please enter. You’re the one from before! Y-You! Why are you in our school?! What do you mean, "why"? Well, I transferred here, so I can’t do anything about it, can I? Even if you transferred, there’s no reason for us to be in the same class, is there?! Hinata, stop stating the impossible. Our school has one class for each year. There’s no other class in second year. Even so... However, it’s surprising that our transfer student and Hinata are acquaintances. We are not acquaintances. Then what’s your relationship? Well... It’s... Anyway, it’s fine. For now, go ahead and introduce yourself, Hoshino. Okay. I’m Hoshino Kazuma. Due to certain circumstances at home, I’ve transferred here. I’ll be in your care from now on. So, Hoshino’s seat will be... Just wait a moment! Isn’t there a Happy Embarrassing Question Time for our dear transfer student, Mum? Don’t call me "Mum"! It’s "Sensei" at school! Isn’t it fine? We are mother and son after all. Even if we’re mother and son, pay attention to where you are! Idiotic son! How ironic. Even now, you’re calling me your son... Don’t talk back! I see it! That will be your seat, Hoshino. Hey! Where am I gonna sit?! Don’t worry. I’ve given it plenty of thought. Kazu-kun! Nice to meet you! Eh? Since you’re Kazuma-kun, I’ll call you Kazu-kun. Can I call you that? Sure, that’s fine. What is your name? Oh, I’m sorry! I’m Nakatsugawa Ui. You can call me Ui! I’m Ibuki. Hinata Ibuki. Nice to meet you. Hinata, since you’re the class representative, take good care of our transfer student. I understand. So... It’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for... Question time! What are your hobbies? What food do you like? What’s your height, weight, sitting height, and blood type? Are you financially dependent or independent? Hey, if you all ask at once... What’s your relationship with Ibuki? You know each other, right? No way do I know him! Not this pervert. You’re calling me a pervert... Isn’t it obvious that’s what you are? You were on a deserted mountain and ki... No, fell on top of a girl! Eh?! What in the world?! I-Ibuki-chan! Didn’t we say that was a misunderstanding? Don’t tell me the girl he fell on was Ui! That’s our air-headed Nakatsugawa Ui for you! Only our Ui would react like that! Hey! Don’t say things that’ll cause misunderstandings! What’s the misunderstanding? I’m telling you, that was an accident! What? An accident? That? I explained it so many times yesterday! You’re really don’t get it! All right, please flip to page 23 of your textbook. Continuing from yesterday... Just for today, I’ll let you look at my textbook. It’s too dangerous to let you get any closer to Ui. Food, food! I’m so hungry! Ah, Minami Kokubaru-kun. Oh, it’s okay to just call me Daigo. Then... Daigo, I’d like to have bread for lunch. Okay! I’m going with bread too, so let’s go buy it together, bro! Hey! What’s up with the "bro"!? Transferring in and falling on top of a girl so quickly is no easy feat. As a sign of my respect for you, I’m gonna call you "bro"! Ui! If you can’t wait any more, why don’t we just go ahead and eat? But... Ah! Kazu-kun! Daigo! Hurry, hurry! It’s pretty unusual for someone as serious about her food as Ui to actually wait for us. It’s huge! Ta-da! Today’s dish is wild mountain mushrooms! Ui... are you possibly... going to eat all that by yourself? Of course not! I’ve prepared another side dish as well! And for dessert, I have the muffins that my mum made! That’s just the kind of girl Ui is. Hey. Hmm? Are those vegetables the ones you picked on the mountain yesterday? Yes, they are! Ui! Don’t talk with your mouth full. That reminds me... Ibuki-chan, why were you there yesterday? I-It doesn’t matter, does it? I was taking a walk. I see! You went to the viewing platform on the mountain, didn’t you? Hmm? Viewing platform? Yep! There’s this viewing platform high up on the mountain. It’s been Ibuki-chan and my favourite spot since we were kids! You see, the scenery there is so amazing that... ...whenever we’re upset, we go there and shout "Idiot!" It really helps us calm down! Even if Ui didn’t have any troubles on her mind, she’d still go up there and shout "ya-ho!" anyway. Well, when you say "ya-ho!" and that "ya-ho!" echoes back, it feels like you’re being encouraged and you feel happy! I wonder if that’s really true... Eh? Guide me around town? Yep! Since you only just moved here, Kazu-kun, you’re not familiar with Yamabiko Town, are you? So I was thinking maybe we should show you around town! That’d really help! Then I’ll go too. If I leave Ui alone with you, there’s no telling what you might do to her. Of course, I’m going too! Oh, is it okay if I bring my little brother? What are you saying?! If he’s my brother’s brother, then we’re all brothers! Kazu-kun, you have a little brother? Yeah. He moved here with me. He’s going to the middle school nearby. Ah, Ayumu? I wonder what his little brother’s like... The little brother of that pervert? He can’t be good. Okay, then wait for us near the bridge at the crossroads. Bye. Tsumugi-san. Eh? You mean you were waiting just for me? Yes. Since you’re not familiar with the surroundings, it’d be a problem if you tried going home alone. Sorry for making you worry about me. To have Tsumugi-senpai, the dream of every male student in the school, looking after you.... Kazuma, you’re too arrogant! Ah, but if you’re here, will Ayumu be okay? No. He should be fine, since we’re meeting at the bridge. My my, Kazuma-san. You’re always putting Ayumu-kun first, aren’t you? However, it should be fine. Arrangements have been made on the other side too. Mugi-nee! Good work! You did a good job bringing Ayumu-kun. Tsumugi-san, this girl is... She’s my little sister, Kasane. She’s in the same class as Ayumu-kun, so I asked her to take care of him. Then... This is Kazu-kun’s... Little brother? N-Nice to meet you. I’m... Hoshino Ayumu. Cu... Cute! Eh! So you’re Ayumu-kun?! Y-Yes. Wait, Ui! That’s right! No matter how much of a unexpected character he is, you’ve got to be careful with your words! Eh? What do you mean? Don’t you think it’s strange that that pervert’s brother is so cute? Yeah! There’s definitely some complicated family circumstances going on here! There’s no need for you guys to be so concerned! We’re not from different mothers! And we’re also related by blood! What a lie! There is no way your little brother can be this cute! You... If you’re truly related by blood... ...this is a joke God only knows. You people... Just as I thought. You’re so nice, Kazuma-san. Eh? I realised when I picked you up in the morning. When you’re walking with Ayumu-kun, your footsteps become a lot shorter. You adjust to Ayumu-kun’s pace, don’t you? Is that true? I’m sorry. I didn’t notice at all... It’s fine. I’m just doing what I feel like, that’s all. You don’t need to worry about it... M-More importantly, Ui, you said you’d show us around town. Where are you taking us? Let me think... We should start off with this place! A convenience store...? It’s on the way back home, so Hikonan’s students frequently come here. Is Hikonan... Yamabikoi South Academy, in short, Hikonan. It’s involved with the judo club we go to. In fact, this convenience store... ...is open from 7 in the morning to 11 at night! Even though it’s dark, you can buy snacks! Isn’t it amazing? However, that was only put into effect recently. Hmm... What time did it close at before? What shall we do? Shall we buy something? Nope! If we’re buying snacks, let’s go to Ya-ho! Huh? Ya-ho? Ya... ho Store... The correct pronunciation is Yakata Store. However, everyone’s been calling it Ya-ho since they were young. What did you buy there? Hehe! Hmm, first would be... ...cheese flavoured umebon. After that, it would be cheese flavoured umebon, and cheese flavoured umebon. Cheese flavour. Cheese flavour! Cheese flavour!! Isn’t it all cheese flavoured?! That’s because I like it! I see. That’s why it tasted like cheese. Eh? That’s not true! It can’t be! To say it was cheese-flavoured... It can’t be... can it? Am I wrong? The muffin you gave me during lunch... ...tasted a little unusual. Sort of like cheese. Ah... That’s right! I put cheese cream in the centre... This is a sugidama. It’s made from the leaves of a cedar tree. When a new batch of sake is ready, they burst the ball to let people know. Tsumugi-san, you sure know a lot. I learnt it all from other people though. I have a friend working here at this shop. She was the one who told me about it. The sake sold at Yoroze also seems to be from here. It looks like the number of shops has grown. So this is a shopping district, huh? Yes! Firstly, the flower shop’s owner just got married! And the bicycle shop owner’s wife just got pregnant! Also, the owner of the soba place is rallying people to join his baseball team. And that corner is supposed to be a ramen store, but the owner is known to be stubborn. However, I can strongly recommend their ramen! Really? Then let’s go eat there one day. Of course! Apart from that, one of the sons at the café there got into an accident, and the book store over there lost its cat, and the couple running the vegetable store are in the middle of an argument! Kasane-chan, you seem to know a lot about these things. Well, I’m proud to say that they don’t call me the "Fast Eared Girl" of Yamabiko Town for nothing! Geez... It’s all because Kasane really likes gossip... Where are we going next? Futago Mountain! Hey hey! You want to climb mountains now? Eh?! I wanted to show Kazu-kun the viewing platform! Viewing platform... Ah, so Futago Mountain is where I got lost yesterday... That was just the foot of the mountain though. Futago mountain looks like this... ...as if two mountains are joined together. Therefore it’s called Futago Mountain! That mountain has a legend... Long ago, a god and a goddess lived on top of the mountain. Love blossomed between the two of them and they abandoned their work. The angry god of the heavens split the summit of the mountain, thereby separating the two. It seems like the legend of Tanabata. Ever since then, from the top of the two mountains, the two have come to call out to each other, shouting things like "I love you" and "I want to see you". So that means... Yes. That is Yamabiko. Their calls to each other echoed, and their passionate thoughts of each other were spread through the valleys, and thus a large valley was formed. That’s the story of how this area was named Yamabiko. Also, we have a festival in autumn, to celebrate this particular legend. One by one, we throw boats into the river below the bridge, and if it flows into the mountains, your wishes will be granted. That’s right! Let’s go to Kotama Shrine next! You know, it’s got a veeery long history. This... is definitely... It sure is long, Onii-chan... Kazu-kun! It’s a race to the top! Huh? Onii-chan, do your best! Daigo, help me with this! They’re really lively. They really are. Ayumu-kun, we’ll walk slowly to the top, okay? Okay. A race... They’re both so childish. Go-al! Kazu-kun, you sure run fast. Yea... Kind of... Madoka-chan? This girl is a freshman in our school! Her name’s Madoka-chan! And this is the transfer student... I’m Hoshino Kazuma. Hoshino... ...Kazuma. Madoka-chan? We’ve been pretty much everywhere, so let’s end it off with some Back Pipes, shall we? Bagpipes? It’s not bagpipes, it’s Back Pipes, Onii-san. It’s a shop we often pass by on the way home from school. The Jumbo Parfait there is really delicious! This is... the Jumbo Parfait... It’s big, isn’t it, Onii-chan... It’s so delicious! That was delicious! Hold on! I think I’ve detected a distortion in the space-time continuum! Eh? Hey, Ui... You’ve got cream on your mouth. Thank you, Onii-chan. Maybe this is the effect of the "Mama" phenomenon? Similar to the way kindergarten teachers are mistaken for mothers. In the classroom, my mum would hate to be called that. Isn’t your case totally different? I’m sorry. Ayumu-kun’s been calling Kazu-kun "Onii-chan"... ...and it just slipped out of my mouth... You seem happy, Ayumu. Yep! Now I’m very interested in Yamabiko Town. What about you, Onii-chan? So am I. Kazu-kun’s little brother is Ayumu-kun, and Ayumu-kun’s older brother is Kazu-kun! I see... Kazu-kun... is the older brother! Onii-chan’s... is really big. Compared to mine, yours is really small. You’ve still got a long way to go. Okay! I shall join in the bonding session of back-rubbing between the two brothers! Next episode of Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, episode 3: Acorns are surprisingly painful. Ayumu-kun, do you know which parts of your body hurt when you put acorns in them? Hmm... The holes in the nose? Safe... ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 03 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [8C23821C] Thanks for the ring... With this... I... Those two are really late today... Time for me to wake them up. Geez, Onii-chan, you’re getting excited so early in the morning... I don’t have a choice, do I? It’s always like this in the morning anyway. Eh?! Excited... in the morning?! It won’t go down until I help you with it, right? All right already, just get it over with. Could it possibly be...! Then, I’m going to start. Stop! Under-age sex is not allowed! No wait, homosexuality is even worse! Huh? Ah... what...? Seriously... You could’ve just told me that you wanted to fix your bedhead. I can do that too, you know. Kazuma-san, when you’re walking with Ayumu-kun, your footsteps become a lot shorter. You adjust to Ayumu-kun’s pace, don’t you? Hmm? What is it? It’s nothing. Nothing at all. Hey, bro. Daigo... You’re pretty lively this early in the morning. Looks like my bro’s bro is doing well too! Yeah! Good morning, Daigo-san! Then, I’ll head off now. Be careful, okay? Um... Kazuma-san, we should get going... Kazu-kun! Daigo! Good morning! Yo, Ui! And Hinata. Wait a second, what’s with that irritated face? Huh? Hey! I can’t just let that look slide! No, it’s not that. It just felt like someone was watching us... Eh? It’s lunch time, lunch time, lunch time. If you’re buying bread, better do it quickly. Eh? If not, seeing how Ui’s drooling, she might give up waiting and start eating the table. Of course not! I also have my hanky with me! She didn’t deny the drooling part... Hey, is he...? Yeah, the rumoured transfer student from Toukai... The one who pushed a girl down on the mountain, right? Yes, yes. That’s what I heard. Seems like the rumour is spreading fast. Well, between being a transfer student from Toukai... ...and pulling a stunt like that, it’d be strange if you weren’t the talk of the town. I’m telling you, it’s a misunderstanding. I know, I know. You didn’t just do it two or three times, but five times, right? Don’t play with words! What’s wrong, bro? Oh, it’s nothing. It’s finally over! Minami Kokubaru-sensei’s homeroom always last so long, huh? Hey, want to go hang out somewhere? I’m hungry... As if your enormous lunch wasn’t enough... Huh? You’re even giving me that clueless look of yours... Bro, you better give up. That’s Ui, you know. Ah! Carry this for me! O-Okay! What’s up with him? Beats me. Hey! Wait up! Sneaking around and hiding behind corners... You...! Safe... Hang on... Aren’t you the girl from the shrine? Erm... Sorry. I must’ve scared you. Are you all right? I-I’m fine! But all of this happening to me is a bit troublesome... Also, there are a number of problems with you running around like this, and there is an order of sequence to these kind of things... But the worst is that it’s happening too fast and it’s really embarrassing me... So could you please take your hand... your hand... Huh? I’m telling you... No! Eh? I’m sorry! Kazuma-san? Are you okay? O-Ouch! Eh? Androphobia? However, it’s quite exaggerated. It might be because Madoka-chan’s grandfather is very strict with her. She tends to be quite awkward around men. Whenever she comes into contact with strangers, she goes into a state of panic. Just like a while ago... What was that just now? I don’t know the details, but it’s probably Goshin Jutsu. Her grandfather, in an attempt to watch over her and help fend off bad guys, taught her those techniques. Bad guys, eh... But still, don’t think badly of her. Yes, of course. Thank you. You’re really kind, Kazuma-san. Wow... You sure slept in, didn’t you? Ah, good morning. It’s already afternoon, you know. Even if it’s Sunday, aren’t you taking it a bit too easy? Heh, sorry about that. I stayed up late yesterday, so... Ayumu-kun went out ages ago, carrying his sketchbook, saying he was going to do some drawings... Kazuma-kun, now go eat your food and go out for a walk or something afterwards! I’m going to clean your room, and it’ll be a pain if you’re around. Y-Yes ma’am. A walk, huh... Where am I supposed to go? Well, the weather’s good. I guess I’ll just wander around. Ouch... My back still hurts. Eh? Androphobia? It might be because Madoka-chan’s grandfather is very strict with her. She tends to be quite awkward around men. I guess... what I did was bad. I should at least go and apologise to her. I don’t know if she’s around, but I might as well go up and check. She’s there... She isn’t... She’s there... She isn’t... She’s there... She Isn’t... She’s there... She isn’t... She’s there... She isn’t... She’s there! There you are! Ah, wait up! I’m sorry about what happened! Ah, erm... I-I’m the one w-who should a-apologise! I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean to do that, but before I knew what was happening, my body was moving on its own... No, I was the one who suddenly put my hands on your shoulders. You’ve got nothing to apologise for. Thank you very much. I feel relieved after hearing that. Also, please call me Madoka. Since you’re my senior, please go ahead and call me that. Eh? You can call me Kazuma, then. Yes, Senpa Kazuma... san... Please wait! I have something I want to ask you, Senpa I mean, Kazuma-san. Something you want to ask? Y-Yes. I don’t know if it’s appropriate, but... ...did you really... ...push down Nakatsugawa-senpai in the mountains, and do all kinds of things to her... Huh?! I see. You fell because that area was slippery. That’s it. I was thinking about jumping to the riverbank, but I slipped by accident. I see. I played there a lot since I was a kid, and I’ve fallen over, as well. Yeah, so it was just an accident. I didn’t do anything bad to Ui. Ah, although I did kiss her... That’s also because I fell over and accidentally... Kiss?! You kissed her? Ah, no, it’s just... Nakatsugawa-senpai and you... At that place... What? Why...? Ouch! An acorn? Called by Heaven, Earth, and the people! I hear a demon remnant calling. My name is Toudou Koyori! I stand here to fight against the darkness! Harmful vermin Hoshino Kazuma! I will never forgive you for disturbing the peace of Yamabiko Town! Wait a sec! What are you intending to do by just popping out of nowhere and calling somebody harmful vermin? Also, since when did I do anything to disrupt the peace? Don’t feign ignorance, Hoshino Kazuma! I have received news from town that you’re doing shameless things with the Ui-chi! Huh? Witch? Is that supposed to be Ui? Who else is it supposed to be?! I thought I said that was a misunderstanding! Oh, a misunderstanding, eh? Then how are you going to explain why Madoka’s crying? Ah, I don’t really know how and why this happened... No excuses! Ouch! Hey! You...! You...! You...! Please stop, Koyori-chan! I had my own reasons for crying! Kazuma-san hasn’t done anything bad! So, please stop doing cruel things to him! Hoshino Kazuma! For Madoka’s sake, I’ll forgive you for now! However, if you do anything that makes her cry again, I won’t hold back any more! Doron! Ah! You! It’s a given that you kneel down and cover your eyes when I say "doron"! If you don’t, then I won’t be able to disappear, right?! Even if you give me a childish reason like that... Doron! Doron! Doron, doron! Hey, want to go to Bagpipe on our way back? I’ll pass. I’ve got club today. I see. What about Kazu-kun? It’s okay with me. Come to think of it, what club are you in, Hinata? You know what? Ibuki-chan does archery! Archery? Robi... What was it again? ...Mask, right? Yes! That, that! You’re wrong! It’s Robin Hood, Rob-in Hood! If that’s what you’re called, that must mean you’re really good. Yup! She was also chosen as our representative for the next tournament! That... That isn’t important! However, doesn’t that mean Ui and my bro are going to be alone together? Huh? Daigo, you’re busy too? Today, I’ve got supplementary English lessons at home! That’s not really something you’d say with a cool expression, is it? Listen. You understand? If you do anything weird when you’re alone with Ui on the way back, I’ll never forgive you! Right... Geez, that’s Hinata... What did she mean when she said "anything weird?" Huh? Y-Yeah, that’s right, what was she thinking? Saying stuff like that... Ah! Ayumu! Onii-chan! And Ui-san too. Good afternoon, Ayumu-kun! Onii-chan, you know what? I joined the art club! I see. You’re good at drawing, after all. Really? I’ll be your model next time, so could you draw a picture of me? Eh? You don’t want to? But I’m not good enough to be able to draw you... Ayumu, your face looks a little red. T-That’s not true. Let me feel your forehead. Eh? I’ll check to see if you have a fever. It’s fine! At least not here... Don’t argue. Here. Ah... I knew it. You have a little fever. It’s fine, it’s not anything big... What are you saying? Your body’s weak. What are you going to do if you get careless and make it worse? But... Here. I’ll piggy-back you to Yorozuyo. It’s fine! I can walk back myself! Don’t argue. Here. Ui, I’m sorry, but could you hold my bag for me? Ah, sure. Ayumu-kun, since you have a fever, don’t push yourself too hard. Ah... Okay... Come to think of it, Onii-chan used to do this a lot when I was small... My legs hurt! I can’t walk any more! You’re hopeless. Here, I’ll carry you all the way back home. Okay. How nice. I want to be carried like that too... Ah, what am I thinking? Even though Ayumu-kun’s not in a good condition now... But... Sorry to keep you waiting. It’s all right. So how is Ayumu-kun doing? He just took some medicine and went to sleep. I think he’ll be fine tomorrow. I’m glad his fever wasn’t anything bad. You really are a good brother, Kazu-kun. I feel jealous of Ayumu-kun. Eh? Eh... that’s... it’s not like I want you to give me a piggy-back... ...ride or check my temperature with your forehead! Eh? My forehead? W-What!? Sorry to disturb you. Oh, I wonder if I’m really disturbing you. Well then, you two. Please do enjoy yourselves. What are you doing there, Nee-san? Give me a break already. Was I not supposed to eat these? Why?! Hey, Kazuma-kun, what’s your type of girl? Next episode of Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, episode 4: "I met a bear and we talked." Wait a second, don’t change the subject by making an announcement! Tell me your type! One whose hair is long and light, and turns every moment into fun times whenever I’m with her. What did you say?! Isn’t that the fitting description of Ui-chi? In other words, a Strike Witch is your type, Onii-chan. Ayumu, that’s just looking at it from a different view at the last minute! ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 04 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [0AA8366F] Your errand: Taro. Carrot. Konnyaku. Gogou. Understood. We’re damn lucky! Is it really that good? I gotta go to the toilet! Oh! Here, catch! Oh, man. We were really lucky to be able to buy a Nozawa cream sandwich, weren’t we? Is it really that good? I gotta go to the toilet! Oh! Here, catch! Ouch... Sorry! I didn’t see you there. Ah... Is this... Thank goodness. It doesn’t seem to be broken. Thank... you. Pretty cute, isn’t it? Don’t make fun of me. No, I didn’t really mean to... My little brother likes things like that, so... Sorry for the wait! What is it, Bro? Isn’t that Sakai-senpai? You know her? I know everything about her! Sakai Hina-senpai, a third year, is the only daughter of the owner of Sakai Sake. The store’s in Yamabiko! She and Tsumugi-san are the two Venuses of Hikonan! If Tsumugi-san is the warm and caring sister, then Sakai-senpai is the contrasting cool beauty! With her cool model-like height and cold eyes, all the guys label her as the number-one senpai and want to be cursed by her, and the girls want to get Valentine’s chocolate from her, no matter what. Everybody loves her! So... she’s a senior. I guess that was pretty bad just now... I’ve been tall ever since I was young... I always sat at the back of class. To say that I’m cute... No one’s ever said that to me before. So when he said, "Pretty cute, isn’t it?" I was was sure he was making fun of me. But in the end, he wasn’t talking about me... It’s so embarrassing. Huh? So our school has its sports festival around this time of year? Heah, sat’s wight. Ui! Don’t talk with your mouth full! Since there aren’t many students, all the grades combine together. It’s going to be pretty lively! There’s also the Hikonan Race! Hikonan Race? What the hell is that? To put it simply, it’s a marathon around the school campus. However, that’s no fun, so there are lots of checkpoints. If you don’t finish the assignments given at the checkpoints, the rule is that you can’t move on. The winners also get prizes, so it’s like the climax for our sports festival! Are you taking part again as a representative for Bagpipe, Ui? Yup! The owner there has been treating me very nicely, so I’ve got to repay him, right? Mind explaining how you became a representative for a café? The Hikonan Race is sponsored by the whole town, so everyone who participates will represent one of the stores in our town. Also, because this is an important event for the town, people from Cable TV will come to cover it as well! Huh? So it’s going to be broadcast on TV? That’s not going to happen. It’s local news, so they’ll only cover a little bit. But you get interviewed if you win, right? That interview is going to be good publicity, so the people in the shopping district are quite serious about this. Well, there’s that, too. I think competing to win gets everyone fired up! I see... Even so, it has nothing to do with me, I guess... I’m back! Ah?! W-What is it, Nee-san? Kazuma-kun! Y-Yes? Special Training! Huh?! I’m going to be a representative for Yorozuyo Inn in the Hikonan Race? I heard from Ayumu-kun... ...that you showed a lot of promise in the tennis club at your previous school. Well, I wasn’t all that promising... I can tell without examining you, anyway. I saw while you were in the bath. Your thighs seemed pretty strong! Please don’t look at a minor in a weird way! Special training will start now. Understand? This cloth is for use with the glass cleaner. And this dry cloth is for wiping it clean! Smear the cleaner on! Wipe the cleaner off! Smear the cleaner on! Wipe the cleaner off! Try it! Smear the cleaner on... Wipe the cleaner off... Smear the cleaner on... Wipe the cleaner off... Um, what’s the purpose of this training? The window will become clean. Nee-san! Well, then. I’ll stop joking around. It’s time for the real deal! What are you going to make me do next? Heat up sand in a wok... ...and make hundreds No, thousands of holes! This will make your fingertips harder than steel. They’ll be lethal weapons capable of killing with a single blow... Okay. I’ll go for some running, then. Wait, Kazuma-kun! Geez! He doesn’t follow the mood. Hey, you! Up here, up here! What are you doing? Why did you climb up there? I’m bringing down a kitten that climbed up too high. Huh? A kitten? More importantly, you were trying to steal my stuff! Uh, I wasn’t doing anything to your stuff. It looked like you were eyeing the special stuff I bought. You were trying to steal it! N-Not true... Then why are you looking down at the ground? Is it because you feel guilty deep down in your heart?! If you ask me why... That’s because... What is it? Speak up, Hoshino Kazuma! The inside of your skirt, you see... Skirt? Be careful! It hurts... What in the world were you thinking?! Ouch... What was I doing? Isn’t it obvious? I was trying to save you. I see. You saved me. Hmm? However, I didn’t know you were Tsumugi-san’s little sister... Ouch! What are you doing? You were thinking of something rude, weren’t you? Huh? Ah, nothing of the sort... By the way, you bought a lot... An errand? No. I’m buying this for Gen-jii. Gen-jii? Gen-jii lives all by himself. Since it’s hard for him to go out and buy groceries, sometimes I buy things for him. But why do you do that? It’s because... If there’s a person in need, isn’t it common sense to help them? I’ll help you hold your bag. So you were after this the whole time! No, I’m not! I just said I’d help you hold it. Why would you do that?! Well... If there’s a person in need, it’s common sense to help them, right? And I can’t let a girl carry heavy things, right? A girl...?! Carry half of it, then. Just half of it? Okay, okay. I’m opening it now. Yeah? Nice to meet you... Well, I’m quite surprised. To think that Koyori-chan has a boyfriend like you... What nonsense are you spouting, Gen-jii?! He’s a bad person from the big city... ...who pushed Ui-chi down and made Madoka cry! Oh? There’s absolutely, definitely no way he can be my b-boyfriend! Um... I’m Gengoro. Yamakawa Gengoro. I don’t mind if you call me Gen-jii, just like Koyori-chan does. Ah, it’s fine. Gengoro-san, you live here alone, don’t you? Yeah... My only daughter got married and left. And three years ago, Nyobo... I see. I’m sorry for asking weird questions like that. There’s no need for someone as young as yourself to be so considerate. It’s relaxing for an old man to live alone like this. However, my grandson, Keita, is going to have surgery soon... I’m slightly worried about it... Is it complicated surgery? No, the doctor told me that the chances of failure are very low. However, you’d worry for a kid who’s having surgery, wouldn’t you? Sorry, Koyori-chan, but can you visit Keita again soon? Keita seems to benefit a lot from your pampering. Of course! Leave it to me! Pretty cute, isn’t it? Don’t make fun of me. Did I... do something bad? That’s right. He just said that I was cute, so that attitude was a bit cruel. Yeah, I think so, too. I think it’d be best if I apologised... You really are a sleepyhead. Good morning. It’s already noon. Even if it’s Sunday, aren’t you taking it a bit too easy? I’m tired from the special training for the Hikonan Race, you know. Ayumu-kun went out ages ago. Gone to sketch again? No, I think I remember him saying he was going to Daigo-kun’s place. Eh? Daigo’s place? Why would Ayumu go to Daigo’s place, anyway? Ah. Ah. But I’m surprised that you’re training for Hikonan race so seriously. Since I’m participating, I can’t let people see me do badly, can I? So, are you participating in the Hikonan race, too? Me? No, I’m not. Then why? I’m just training a bit on my own for the archery club. So, is wearing that outfit a regulation of the club? No, nothing like that. Isn’t it normal to wear your P.E. uniform when you’re exercising? She’s fine with wearing that even outside school... Is this what they call a culture gap? The countryside is a scary place. Here. You’re thirsty, right? I don’t want you looking at me like you’re begging for something to drink, so I’ll give you some. But is it all right? Ouch! Hitting me in the same place again... Geez! Are you an idiot? By the way, Ui said she was participating in the Hikonan race. Is she training, too? Yes. Well, she’s doing her own kind of training. A big bowl a ramen to swallow whole! All right! Ojii-san, count the time. Okay! On your mark... Get set... Go! Yes? Keita-kun, Ojii-chan is coming to see you. Yo. Ojii-chan. And Koyori-chan, too. Keita, are you feeling well? If I was well, I wouldn’t be in the hospital. Look here, Keita. It’s unusual for Koyori-chan to come and visit, and that’s what you say to her? Keita, even if you’re sick, there’s nothing stopping you from feeling well! You should cheer up, especially when you’re feeling sick. If you do that, you’ll drive all the illnesses away! That’s right, Keita. It’s just like Koyori-chan said. And also, you’ll get better after the surgery. Okay? Y-Yeah. If I cheer up, will I really drive the illness away? Of course! If you cheer up, anything is possible! I read in a textbook that a famous historical person once said that! Then, Koyori-neechan, win the Hikonan Race. Huh? "If you cheer up, anything is possible," right? Keita, don’t trouble Koyori-chan by saying selfish things like that. But... Okay! I’ll participate in the Hikonan race and win! But Koyori-chan... And in exchange for that, if I win, you have to cheer up too, okay? And after the surgery, you’ll get a lot better! That’s a promise! Yep! All right! Pinky promise! Yep! Pinky promise! If you lie, you’ll swallow 1000 needles. Promise made! This month will be rough, too. Should I reduce my husband’s salary... Hey, what’s up with Hina? Do you need her for something? Not really... I thought I left her in charge of the store for a while. That girl went running. Seems like she’s expecting something from herself in the Hikonan Race. What are you doing at a place like this? Waa... I’m sad that I’ve been thrown away. Poor thing. It’s sad that you’re all alone. Yep. So, want to come to my place? Oh, is that all right? Yes. Could he have heard everything I just said? It’s fine. He couldn’t have. Um... here. T-Thank...you. I’ll be going, then... Ah. Huh? W-What? Sakai-senpai... right? That’s... right... I’m sorry about what happened before. I didn’t know you were a senior, and I spoke to you so rudely... I don’t really mind. Really? That’s a relief. I... forgot to apologise to him again... I’ve been skipping class lately, so maybe I should go and pray... Ready... Start! Ah, sorry for scaring you. It’s fine. However, if it’s possible, I would really appreciate it if you’d act in a more dignified manner when you visit our shrine... My apologies... I see. You’re training for the Hikonan Race. I mean, Senka-san asked me to, and I couldn’t refuse. Work hard! I’ll cheer you on! Thanks. I’ll work hard to win so I can give Yorozuyo Inn some publicity in an interview. Also, if you win the Hikonan Race, you get to play the "Ogami role" in the Autumn Festival. "Ogami role?" Ah, it means the male god’s role. The Megami and Ogami roles. I see. Akino Festival is held in honour of the legend of Futago Mountain, so... "Calling out from both sides of the bridge that stands out from the mountaintop..." You seem to be quite familiar with this. I learned it all from Tsumugi-san, though. At the start of the festival, the person who plays the role of Ogami will receive the scrolls, on which the shrine maiden’s teachings are written. He will get onto the festival cart waiting below. The role of the Megami is played by the village chief, who leaves from the house of the Shinto shrine parishioners representative. She holds the scrolls and rides the festival cart to go and meet the Ogami, who remains on the other side of the bridge. First, the Ogami recites the scripture to the Megami, and then, as if to answer to the Ogami, the Megami will recite back . It’s basically reconstructing the image of them calling out to each other and creating Yamabiko Town, right? Yes. However, this belief isn’t just about the legend of Futago Mountain. The gods of the mountains descend to the village, bond with the village and bring blessings with them. And when the calls and thoughts of passion of the Ogami and Megami reach each other’s hearts... ...during the night of the festival, it’s said that, as proof, a bridge of stars will form. A bridge of stars, huh? Ayumu! What activities will be held at the sports festival? Let’s see... Ball rolling, pole kicking... ...and ball tossing! That’s right! A ball, a pole, and then a ball! What a great selection! Well, then. Now that I’m all fired up, let’s move on to the preview! Next time, on Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, episode 5: "Red Bean Soup, Eel and Wedding Dresses." Ayumu, could you repeat what you just said one more time? Ball rolling, ball pushing and pole tossing! Ah! I got it wrong! Thanks a lot! ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 05 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [C8121AF0] Our Yamabiko South Academy Sports Festival. The most captivating event is the Hikonan Race. It is a long and arduous battle. Ayumu! Yes! Ayumu... Your brother... ...wants to challenge this battle. For the sake of victory... ...of the utmost importance to his cause is... your support! If that’s how it is, I’ll do my best to cheer him on! That’s a good notion for you to hold in your heart. However, just cheering won’t be enough for him to win in the end. Hmm? That’s why... ...you will be wearing this. That’s a...?! And on that note, please do your best, no matter the outcome. Will the representatives please step forward and take the Athlete’s Oath? In the name of all competitors, we, the athletes, shall participate with the true spirit of sportsmanship, and hereby pledge to compete fairly. Red Team Representative, Sakai Hina. White Team Representative, Toudo Tsumugi. And... it begins! Yamabiko South Academy Sports Festival! The leader of the White Team, admired by all of the males, Toudo Tsumugi! And from the Red Team, hearing calls of love from the females, Sakai Hina! Now that the two have made their pledges, we shall begin the sports festival! I, Minamikokubaru Daigo from the executive committee, shall be providing the commentary! So, the first event of the day will be... ...the bread eating race! Get set... She’s fast! As expected of participant Nakatsugawa, who takes "Food first, phone calls second and three o’clock snacks four times a day!" As for participant Koumoto... Er, after some lowering and raising of the poles, participant Koumoto finally clears this stage. Next up: the girls’ 100-metre sprint! The cream of the crop is none other than participant Sakai Hina! Ah! Senpai glanced at me! No, she was looking at me! On your marks... Get set... Ah! She’s the best! She’s so cool! Sakai-senpai really is quite popular with the girls. Get set... Ah! Oh, gosh... No way... Why...? Mugi-nee... I guess her proportions are a little too much for that... And so, it has started! The ball toss event for the middle schoolers has begun! Although the red team has always won this event in the past, which side will get the most balls in at the end? Ayumu, you can do it! You don’t need to wave at me... Get set... The scavenger race! The competitors will need to borrow whatever is written on their cards in order to win this event! What in the world is written on those cards? Big... breasts?! I know! With Madoka-chan... Madoka-chan! If you would please. Oh right... Madoka-chan has androphobia... What’s up next? A performance exercise by the archery club! The archery club? Then... Yup! Ibuki-chan is taking part as the representative! And now, there will be a performance exercise by participant Hinata Ibuki! But, is it all right? No, no. I need to stay focused. If I don’t focus... It’s all your fault! Kazu-kun, what’s wrong? Oh, I just had a strange feeling... Ui, over here! Mama! Papa! Well, no need to stand. Have a seat. Thank you. You’re Kazuma-kun, right? Ah, yes. I’m Hoshino Kazuma. At first glance, you look quite familiar. Huh? I just thought you looked like our son, that’s all. Ui has been sticking to her brother ever since she was young. And you’re his little brother, Ayumu-kun, right? Y-Yes. If you don’t hold on tight to your brother, Ui will steal him. Geez! Mama! Where’s Ibuki-chan? She’s changing, so she told us to start without her. Daigun seems to be pretty busy with committee work, too... Really? Okay, let’s open Ui’s Bento: Sports Festival Version! In the first layer, as eye candy, a colourful assortment of side dishes. The second layer consists mainly of meat to fill you up. And for the last, a layer crammed full of assorted rice balls with sour plum, salted roe, bonito flakes and salmon! And there’s more! Have one now, and get another one free! What is this, an advert? I won’t lose when it comes to making bentos, either! Nee-san! I’ve come to deliver the Yorozuyo Special Bento! Today is Madoka’s favourite, sweet inari sushi! There’s so much! Since it’s the Sports Festival, I did my best. Times like these are pretty fun, aren’t they? Yeah. Oh-ho! A lot of butt! This is just like a treasure chest of butt! The Mother’s Butt Sumo Event! Still in! Still in! Your buttock’s still in! So that sums up the Mother’s Butt Sumo event. And now, the event we’ve all been waiting for... The start of the Hikonan Race! Before we start, I shall introduce the key participants in this race. Thinking about food, even in her dreams: the Bagpipe Café representative, Nakatsugawa Ui! Ui-chan, good luck! Master! If I win this race, you’re going to give me a complimentary jumbo parfait! Next off is the Sakai Sake representative, the cool beauty, Sakai Hina! Hina, if you lose, I’m not going to forgive you! Father. It’s embarrassing. We also have the Yamagen representative, Toudou Koyori! And last but not least, Yorozuyo’s representative, the transfer student from the big city, Hoshino Kazuma! Kazuma-kun! It’s time for you to show off the results of your special training. Nee-san... What do you mean, "the results of my special training"...? Onii-chan! Do your best! Hooray, hooray, Kazuma! Do your best, do your best, Ka-zu-ma! Yay! Ayumu! What’s with this get-up? Daigo-san told me that if I used this outfit to cheer you on, Onii-chan would have the most fighting spirit... Da-i-go! Good job! Eh? On your mark... Get set... Finally, the storm I mean, the participants are off to a clean start. Let’s hand it over to our reporter, Toudou Kasane-san. Kasane-san? Can you hear me? Kasane-san? Yes, yes! This is the reporter, Toudou Kasane! I’m at the first checkpoint, which is the participants’ current goal! The first challenge is to eat thirty bowls of Kanmidokoro Azukidou’s red bean soup! Are you serious?! The first challenge is to eat thirty bowls of red bean soup? Based on our live report, participant Nakatsugawa seems to have had special training for this, eating special bowl ramen. Will she be able to show us the results of her training? Ui-chan... Mum, will Ui be okay? Of course she will be. Amazing! Participant Nakatsugawa easily cleared the 30 bowls of soup! How she was able to down this amount is impossible to comprehend. See? Sorry to keep you waiting! Toudou Kasane has just arrived at the second checkpoint! In this pool, we have our shopping district’s speciality: eels, which were donated to the festival by Maki-san! For the second challenge, the participants have to grab 10 eels, or else they will not be able to proceed to the next checkpoint! What’s this? The second challenge is to catch eels! All of the eels that the participants catch will be served to the staff later on. I don’t think I’ll want to look at anything sweet for a while. That event sure knocked a lot of people out. Geez, I’m all wet! Oh, no. It got into my clothes! Hey, Ui. Where are you going? If you want to know, ask the eel! Just like her... While a lot of participants are having problems at the second checkpoint, participant Toudou has no trouble at all! As expected from the girl who has been catching loaches... ...in the rice fields and eating them raw since she was young. I’ve never done anything like that! All right, I’ve got this in the bag! Finally, the third checkpoint will require everyone to change into costumes! Their costumes are written on the card that they pick. Everyone, look forward to the costumes the participants will be returning in! Oh! Our top participant, Toudou, is returning in a wedding dress! Why am I stuck with the most difficult costume to run in? Huh? Most of the participants have already arrived at the third checkpoint, and many have already changed into their costumes. However... Wow! Participant Nakatsugawa, what’s that?! I-It’s cute... I want to squeeze it. She’s making weird noises! If I keep going like this, I’ll reach the goal first and be able to keep my promise with Keita. Keita will be able to cheer up! Just a little bit further... just a bit more... Ah! Ouch... Just a little bit more... Just a little bit more! Ah? What’s wrong? Hey, are you all right? I’m fine. Don’t tell me you’ve sprained your ankle? What happened here? In any case, running is out of the question. You should retire. No! Why? I made a promise with Keita! Keita? Isn’t Keita Gengouro-san’s... If I win the Hikonan Race, Keita said he would cheer up. Cheer up, go through the surgery and drive the illness away. I get it. I’ll let you hold my hand until we reach the finish line. Don’t be stupid! How could I hold the hand of my enemy? This isn’t the time to make a fuss. Never! I’ll reach the goal by myself, and Keita will... Why am I being chased?! This isn’t good. If this goes on... What are you doing? You want to win, right? You want to win for Keita’s sake, no matter what happens, right? Then just leave it to me. They’re here, they’re here, they’re here! Who’s coming in first?! Onii-chan! What’s this?! Participant Hoshino is carrying participant Toudou like a princess! And... They reach the goal! Now, I shall announce the results of the race. Based on our camera footage, participant Toudou touched the tape first, so she is in first place! Participant Hoshino is in second place! This is the time of year when the Hikonan Race takes place! I wonder what store representative won this year? Our reporter, Kyouko-chan, is currently out collecting information. Kyouko-chan! Right here! I’m Kyouko, a reporter for Ya-ho! I’m currently at Yamabiko South Academy. Ah! Without further delay, I shall begin the interview with the victor. Keita! Are you watching this? I won, just like I promised you! So, Keita, cheer up and drive away the illness! Yeah! Koumoto-senpai’s mother was the winner of the Mother’s Butt Sumo Event. What would you say enabled you to win? Know thy ass-ailant. I wonder if it means to know oneself? As for Minamikokubaru-sensei, who wanted victory but let it slip through her fingers... I think I wasn’t ass-ertive enough. If I keep going, there won’t be enough time for the preview! Next time, on Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, episode 6: When the Bucket Falls. I thank Natsugawa-senpai’s mother for covering my butt! ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 06 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [948B88E6] This is where Kazuma-san... ...did that to Natsugawa-senpai... Final exams? What’s that? Is that a common thing around here? Eh?! The schools in the city don’t have final exams?! Hey, don’t just listen to whatever he says. You seem very laid-back to be able to fool around like that. Will you really be okay? Probably, I guess... You’re such an unreliable person. Well, we were talking quite a lot as you guys guided me around town, and I can’t seem to settle down and study. Then wouldn’t it be better if you tried to do something about it now? In our school, if you do badly in your finals, they’ll force you to take summer classes. Wh Seriously? Yep, yep! I can’t have my summer vacation destroyed just for that... That’s why I have Ibuki-chan to tutor me! Eh? Hinata’s good at studying? What’s with that surprised reaction? Er, nothing, it’s just that you participate in club activities a lot, so you didn’t give me the impression of someone who could study well. How rude! Even though you can’t see it, I work just as hard as a swan. You’re saying that you work like the swan in how it works its legs really hard to swim...? However, that is incorrect. And where did you come from...? I see... That means... Hinata also releases oil bubbles from her buttocks... I-Idiot! There’s no way that could happen! Well, let’s leave that aside. I’ve got an idea that will help us all prepare for our finals. Hmm... An overnight study session... Okay! I’ll let you have it. Eh? Is it really okay? There aren’t any more customers in our care, and since it’s for studying, I can’t refuse, can I? Hello, everyone! Erm, Koyo-nee. You’re not here to burn the inn down. Hoshino Kazuma, I’m here to study! Well, your ankle seems to have healed. Yup! Exactly! Kazuma-san, I apologise for being late. No, I should be the one apologising for asking you to tutor me. It’s fine. Teaching people would help me review, and it’s a good chance to make sure these two study properly. Oh, they’re here! Good afternoon! Sorry to have kept you all waiting! It’s nothing! Hey, Madoka-chan came too! Eh? Ah, yes. Koyori-chan asked me to come along to study. Ah, wait just a moment. There’s still one more person coming. I’m sorry... My apologies... Sorry... I am very sorry... I still haven’t properly apologised for what happened that day... Don’t make fun of me. This study session is a good chance to apologise. When I see Hoshino, I’ll apologise properly. Is anyone here? Yes! Ah...! Welcome. You’re finally here! Quickly, come on in! Everyone has been waiting for you. Oh, Hina, it’s the first time you’ve seen him, right? He’s Hoshino Ayumu-kun, Kazuma-san’s little brother. You know, the one cheering in the cheerleader’s outfit during the sports festival? You’re a good boy, cheering on your brother. Erm... My my, Hina. You’re already interested in Ayumu-kun. Okay! And so, in preparation for our finals, we shall start our study session! Yeah! Eh? What are you doing, Ui?! Hmm? Let me say that again... Study session, start! U-i...! Eh?! That’s because... Ui-chan, we can have snacks later. For now, you have to study. Okay... x+3=8 is the same as 8-3=x. Then x=5. This then becomes... this. That’s why it becomes this. Ah, I see. Oh my, it’s already this late. If we study any more, we’re not going to absorb anything. Let’s take a break and have dinner, shall we? Eh?! Dinner?! But before that, we’ll take a bath. Bath... You say... Oh yes! What’s the meaning of this...? Why isn’t it a mixed bath?! Of course it wouldn’t be. Bro and my Bro’s Bro, it’s amazing you two are so calm. As for me... As for me...! I was so expectant... So much so that I can hang a bucket on it! Amazing! It’s like magic! There’s no need for you to be amazed! Wow! Madoka-chan, your breasts sure are big! Let me touch them! Madoka’s breasts are big, but Mugi-nee’s are definitely the biggest! Wait a moment, Koyori! You didn’t have to say that! But, it’s true that Tsumugi’s are big. Geez, Hina, even you? Bro... I was wrong. Yeah. You’re wrong in everything you do. I was stupid to think that we weren’t supposed to be having a bath together. I will now muster up my courage and satisfy my third leg’s desires! Third... leg? Bro! I’m going to the other side! To our unseen dreamland, Shangri-la! Ah! Take this! Argh! My eyes!! My eyes!!! Ha ha ha! I saw right through your plan of peeking over at us girls! Koyori-chan... Hey, at least cover yourself up... There! Hey! There! There! How’s that! Hey, stop that! Wow! That’s good! Very good! Breast fight! I won’t lose! Give me your best shot! Okay! I’m done making the breast sponge cleaner! Who wants to be cleaned up first? ...is supposed to be what the other side is doing. That’s just not normal. Why am I stuck here helping some guys wash their rough backs! I’m sorry for having rough skin then! Hey, Bro, isn’t there a secret passage from the male bath to the female bath? There’s no way anything like that exists. Ah, but there’s supposed to be a pathway for staff to walk through. That’s it! Is that the pathway? Not like it’s dangerous if I only take a peek... If I go in through here... Eh? Hmm? It has to be this after a bath! Wah! It feels good... Madoka! Here I come! Y-Yes! You’re not that bad! How about... this! Ah! Eh? Where is it...? Erm, Koumoto-senpai, if you’re talking about the ping pong ball, it’s right there... Ahh!! And it’s Koumoto-senpai’s victory! What?! Amazing! As expected from Yamabiko Town’s most famous feature; there’s so many of them here! Onii-chan! They said that there are fireflies at the river! Let’s go watch them together! Yeah, okay. Ui, let’s go. I’ll... pass. I’ll rest here for a bit more... Eh? But... Onii-chan! Hurry up! Yeah, I’m coming! Fireflies... huh... To think that his first lover is such a beautiful woman. How could you, to say that I’m beautiful... However, I’m still very surprised. Hey, Ui! Don’t just sit there; say hello to Kuriko-san. What’s wrong? Ah, Ui? Wait up! Onii-chan, you idiot... I knew you were here! What happened? Ui, your mum has been looking for you. That time, Ibuki-chan... She was there with me the whole time at the viewing platform. Until the sun set, she was there listening to what I had to say... And slowly, I calmed down... When I heard they were getting married, I felt that Onii-chan was being stolen from me, and I was kind of shocked... But if I continued to feel that way, that wouldn’t be good... Gosh, where did you go! Mama! Where’s Onii-chan? Eh? Well, if you’re looking for Hajime, he took Kuriko-san... ...to the river in front of Yorozuya to look at fireflies. Hold on, Ui! I wanted to say "I’m sorry!"... ...and "Congratulations!" too, if I could. Ah! In the end, during the wedding ceremony... ...I couldn’t say "Congratulations!" Ui-chan! Dinner’s ready, so could you call for everyone to come back in? Okay. It’s delicious! Nee-san, seconds! Ayumu-kun, you seem to be eating a lot more than usual! That’s because the food lately has been delicious! It’s proof that you’re getting healthier! I have lots of food, so don’t be shy and eat up! Thank you for the food. Ah! Oh my, is that all? I don’t have... an appetite today... Really? It seems that we’re at our limits. Let’s stop here for today. Everyone, go to sleep early tonight. We’re waking up early to study tomorrow morning. Sleeping with everyone makes it feel like a field trip. It’s so exciting! Geez, why do you have so much energy after you study? Kasane-chan, you’re changing? Yes! Being in a yukata is fine, but I have a certain pair of pyjamas that I prefer. Ta-da! Hey, that’s really cute! Right? If I don’t wear this, I can’t calm down and sleep. Hey, Bro. What is it? There are girls sleeping under the same roof as us. Why, of all people, am I sleeping next to a guy? I don’t care. Isn’t that obvious? How can this be happening? To think that we can sleep under these conditions! Just over the hallway, there are seven girls who could be fondling each other’s breasts... ...and seeing each other’s lingerie right now! I’m sure that’s not happening. Bro! I will set off on an adventure! A dangerous, demanding, thrilling adventure! Hey, you serious? Of course! Eh? Ah! If you add honey to red bean soup, it will be very delicious... Ah! K-Kazu-kun! Why are you here? Well... I needed to use the restroom. What about you? Well, I’m... I mean, I couldn’t go to sleep, and... I knew it! What do you mean you knew?! Sorry to keep you waiting. What is this? Your appetite is big, so Tsumugi-san made this with the... ...leftover rice in case you woke up in the middle of the night. To Ui-chan: If you’re hungry, please eat this. Come on, eat up. If not, everyone will wake up from the rumbling of your stomach. Huh? Ah...! The moon is beautiful, isn’t it? Yeah. But the moonlight’s too bright. I can’t see any stars. On the night of the festival, there’s supposed to be a bridge of stars, right? Eh? Ah, the festival for the legend of Futago Mountain, right? However, during the festival, the only ones walking on the bridge are the male and female gods, and they only do so when their feelings have reached each other. Ah, I see. I want to see it... The bridge to the starry sky... Next time, on Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, episode 7: The Pink Nyanbobo Onii-chan, what’s a nyanbobo? Who knows... Eh? Kazu-kun, you don’t know what a Nyanbobo is? You’re a failure if you don’t even know what Nyanbobo is! It’s a surprise to know that you don’t know what Nyanbobo is. Nyanbobo is pretty famous in this town. Nyanbobo... is cute. Nyanbobo! Nyanbobo! Don’t tell me, this preview... ...is just to make me say Nyanbobo? ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 07 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [9D367EBA] Sensei, you idiot! I hate homework! It’s finally over! Huh? It’s over... It’s really over for me... Hey, what’s with that downcast attitude? That’s right, Daigun! The time before our results is a chance to kick back and relax, so you shouldn’t be so down! Well, I’m not too sure that’s the case... Yeah. I guess. Okay! Then, let’s go to Honchou and play our hearts out! Agreed! Kazu-kun, you’re coming too, aren’t you? I’m fine with that, but what’s Honchou? Honchou is the city two stations away from Yamabiko Town. It’s one of the biggest towns in this area, and it’s a popular area to go play and shop. So it’s something like Shibuya city or Harajuku city? Er, what? Is that something delicious? Ah... Well, in any case, let’s celebrate the end of our finals! Let’s all go and play! I’ll pass. I’ve got club activities in the afternoon. Ah, that’s right! The ban on club activities has been lifted, hasn’t it? Yep. The tournament is close too, so I should focus on training. Later then. Yep! During the study session, I couldn’t apologise again. Don’t make fun of me! That incident... I will apologise properly this time. Ah, she’s here! With that, everyone’s here, right? Then, let’s be off! Where’s Hoshino’s little brother? And also, Hinata... Ah, Ibuki-chan has Archery Club practice, so she can’t come, and Ayumu-kun... Ayumu has a field trip with his Art Club, so he can’t come either. It’s good to hear Ayumu-kun has made friends he can have fun with, isn’t it? That’s right, Hoshino Kazuma! The younger brother can’t keep clinging on to the older brother, you know! That reminds me, Koyo-nee still has Mugi-nee help her fix her loose buttons! Ah, don’t say that! That’s only when I’m careless... Hoshino’s little brother isn’t coming... What a shame. Yes. Yes. I understand. Then, could we have that? How did it go? The Karaoke Box said it will be at least a two hour wait with this many people. Eh?! Two hours...! No need to pout! Well, let’s kill time at the arcade, then! Yeah. It’s my victory again. Hoshino Kazuma! If it’s down to this, let’s have a real match! We’re doing pro wrestling, so come out and face me! As if I would! Kasane-chan, you’re good! I did it! Koumoto-senpai, do you want to go next? Eh?! I can’t do this! I’m not very good at these types of things... It’s simple! You only need to step on the panels that light up! Eh? But... Come on, it’s starting! Eh?! But...! Quickly, quickly! Like this...? Is this okay? That’s right! You’re good at this. Keep it up! Kasane-chan, I still think I’m not suited for this... Eh? Not again... Heart-stopping Ryouzan Paku School? What’s this? Well, as you can see, this is strip mahjong. You get to battle against 36 beautiful girls, and if you win, the girls strip. The stripped girls become your allies, and you can use their special abilities in the game. All right, it’s coming together! Tsumo, baiman! There, Shishin-chan! Let me see the Kumon Dragon tattoo that covers your whole body! Superb... This is quite... It’s great! It’s great! But isn’t this bad? How is this at all bad? Are you sure this is fine? Can we really continue looking at this? Ahem! Eh...? Uh-oh! Geez, why can’t I catch any of them? What’s wrong, Ui? This! I can’t catch a single one! I’ll go get more coins! I guess I’ll try my luck, then. Huh? Hey, isn’t this the one... ...Senpai also had? Oh! Isn’t that BoboPin? BoboPin? He’s a pink version of the the mascot, Nyanbobo. In short, BoboPin. It seems you can’t get him apart from catching him using the crane game. He’s really rare! I see... This is a rare, huh? Kazu-kun, move aside! Hey, Ui. I think it would be cheaper if you just bought Umebons... Hmm, let’s see... The growth of your child will change according to your answers to the quiz questions. Let’s diligently raise our children then, Kazuma-san! Tsumugi-san and my children... Yes! I will work hard! Failure is the mother of something... That has to be C: "success," right? S-Sex... The poet professor Tokohama invented "objective something"... This is object sketching! Ejaculation?! A dead ball in Japanese is... Hmm... I wonder if it would be shikyuu? In her womb...?! Kazuma-san, what’s wrong? You’ve been acting strangely for a while... Ah, it’s nothing! I just need to go to the toilet... In the game centre, everyone’s scattered around, playing their own games. It’s the perfect chance to apologise to Hoshino. If I see him by himself, that’s when I’ll... Hoshino. Oh, yes. Sakai-senpai, this is for you. Isn’t this... BoboPin? This is the same as senpai’s phone strap, isn’t it? Can I really have this? Yes, of course. Thank you. And we’re finally here! Karaoke Box! Everyone, let’s fire ourselves up and sing! Let’s see, what should I eat? Hmm, I wonder. Hey, choose your songs before your food! Ah, sorry! But they’ve got so many dishes that look so delicious! This place’s Honey toast seems to be pretty good! Honey toast? Ah, the one where you put honey, fruit and ice cream on top of hot toasted bread... Hey, Ui, you’re already drooling. Eh? It’s not me. I’m sorry! I’ve never seen this before, and it’s the first time I’ve heard of honey on this kind of dish. This heavenly dish with toast that’s crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, along with ice cream and fruit, just imagining it, I can’t help but... Hinata! Your emotions are wavering! Focus more! Yes. I understand, Club President. Eh? Viewing platform? Do you remember when we first arrived at Yamabiko? We took the wrong bus and ended up at that stop. Ah, that place? There’s an entrance close by, and the viewing platform was right at the end of that path. The scenery was so beautiful. Everyone in the Art Club did sketches and ate lunch there. It was great fun! Since it’s that nice of a place, I’d like to go there too. Let’s go, Onii-chan! The viewing platform is a really nice place! Man, I failed Maths and Physics... Bro, don’t be so downcast over failing. That reminds me, how did you do? For me, it’s Modern Literature, Japanese History and Sports Education. You failed three subjects? No, I failed everything except for those three. T-That’s extreme. Oh well, I guess it’s inevitable for me to go to summer class. Since I slacked off, I can’t escape the consequences. That’s right! There’s nothing you can do even if you mull over failing one, two, three, four, five or six subjects. Well, if someone failed so many, they should feel down, shouldn’t they... Oh, so Hinata didn’t fail any of the subjects? Nope. Although she doesn’t have a nice chest, her results are good. Er, her chest has nothing to do with this though. Ibuki-chan is pretty good, to be able to juggle club activities and keep good grades. She’s been going for club activities every day since finals, too. Is her tournament soon? It’s next Sunday. Okay, then let’s all go and cheer her on! Yep! Eh?! Tsumugi-senpai and Sakai-senpai aren’t coming? Mugi-nee has her part time job at Yorozuya Inn. Sakai-senpai had to help out with her family business. What’s with this turnout? Doesn’t that mean our breast percentage just decreased by 50%? There’s no choice. I’ve got to work hard with Ui and Madoka-chan... Ah! Don’t leave me here! Ibuki-chan’s event should be starting soon. Oh gosh, it’s so embarrassing, having everyone come cheer me on. It took a lot of time to get here, didn’t it? That’s for sure. To get to this private gymnasium, we had to change trains three times. It never occurred to me that it’d take an hour and half. We missed the event before this, but it’s great that we made it for the main event! Yeah. Ibuki-san, I’ll cheer you on, so please do your best! Thank you, Ayumu-kun! But since you came all the way here to cheer me on, wouldn’t it have been better if you wore your cheerleader outfit like at the Hikonan race? Eh? That was just one time... ...and I didn’t bring it either... Sorry about that! I’m kidding. It’s just a joke. Geez, Ibuki-san... I thought she’d be nervous before the event, but Hinata seems to be relaxed. Yep! It’s going to be a breeze. But... What’s wrong, Ui? I can’t really express it, but Ibuki-chan seems to be forcing herself. Eh? Climbing these stairs is... tiring. The archery competition should already have started. I’ll give it a try. Good luck, Hinata. It was a shame for Hinata-senpai. Yeah. If only she hit the last arrow... Well, she managed to get a prize. Isn’t that great? Isn’t Hinata kinda late? Hinata-senpai did say she was going to wait for us in the lobby after her event, didn’t she? It’s not working! Ibuki-chan seems to have turned off her phone. Why did Ibuki-san suddenly disappear? Well, I can kind of imagine how she must be feeling. Could it be because she wanted to be alone? Maybe so. But she should have at least told us where she was going. Ah. Ayumu. Hmm? I just need to go along the mountain trail to get to the viewing platform, right? Ah, yeah. There’s also a signpost there, so you should be able to get there easily. Okay! Ah! You can go home first! Ah, Onii-chan! I knew you were here! Hoshino... Why... are you... That’s my line. What’s wrong? Leaving by yourself... Everyone was worried about you. That’s... Was it because you lost in the finals? I... was scared. I started taking Archery back in middle school. I trained my hardest every time. I made it to the end of the tournament, too. But, at the end, when I thought, "What if this arrow misses?" I suddenly became scared. I had to focus. I knew I had to calm down. But I became more and more frightened, and wanted to just run from that place. It didn’t matter whether I won or lost. I just wanted to get out of there. My whole mind went blank, and before I knew it, I had let go of the string. I ran away. I didn’t lose to my opponents, but myself. I was really mortified. I didn’t want to let anyone see this side of me. That’s why I came here. Hinata. Finals, you stink! If you have worries on your mind, you shout them out here, don’t you? I’m such an idiot! Next time, on Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, episode 8: Jabs are (Blank). Ayumu, do you know what goes in the blank? Score? That’s right! Wait, that’s not important! More importantly, a jab is also a...? W-Whoa! ke. That’s right! Buiin, dooon, what the heck?! I know! That! Correct! ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 08 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [A844A1E8] Well, you know... The fact that I cried... keep it a secret, okay? You definitely... won’t tell anyone, okay? Okay, Hinata. It’s our secret, then. Thanks. And also... From now on, Instead of calling me Hinata, you can call me Ibuki. Eh? But... why? Well... That’s... Ibuki-chan! Ui! I knew you would have gone to the viewing platform! Geez, it’s mean of you to not tell me! Oh? Eh? Kazu-kun... Why are you... Thanks for your help! Is our delivery the last? Yeah. Then, do you want to come in and get a cold drink? I have to get home quickly and study. I see. Hina is looking forward to the new semester. Yeah. I wonder if it’s going to be hard... Yup yup... That’s true, isn’t it? Hmm, yup... Well, I’m totally free... Eh?! The beach? I’ll go! I’ll definitely go! There’s nothing to do during summer vacation, and I’m so bored! Then, I’ll see you next Wednesday. I’ll contact you again once we’re done sorting out the details. Yup, okay! Also, help me get Ibuki to come, since we’re all going to the beach. Ah? Hey, Ui? What’s wrong? Oh, erm... All right. Okay, I’ll tell Ibuki-chan. Oh, Madoka-chan does volunteer work at a library during summer holidays? Yes. I read books to the children, or do picture book shows. She doesn’t just do that, she also reads out her own works, which seem pretty popular with the little kids! Oh, I see. It’s not all that popular... Well, I’ve enjoyed writing stories ever since I was young, and when I told those stories to the children, everyone seemed so happy, so... It’s amazing to be able to make children happy using your own stories. So, are you shocked? It’s nothing for you to boast about, is it? What did you say?! My friend’s pride is my pride! What’s wrong with boasting about it? By the way, Sakai-senpai, you’re studying even now? Exam students have their battles in the summer. I’m sorry for having kind of forced you to come along. It’s important to take a breather once in a while. And... This is a good chance. Once I’m alone together with Hoshino, I’ll apologise properly for that incident. It’s the sea! Sea, sea, sea! Hey! Do your warm-up exercises before you get into the water! Geez, they’re so childish. And in comparison... This side is so mature. Y-Yeah... Come on, Koumoto-senpai, quickly, quickly! I’m not mentally prepared yet! Koumoto-senpai, why are you hiding? Your figure is good enough for you to show off! Ah! Eh? I didn’t get thrown. Well, Kazuma-san was the one who invited me here... This, of course, shows that we’re friends. Besides, there is no need to throw you when you touch me... If there’s t-too much contact, I can’t promise you anything... What do you mean, "Too much contact"? Madoka-chan, let me do that. Ah, okay... There you go! Thank you very much... Then, let’s go! Okay! Take that! Take that, that, and that! Stop! Counter-attack! Take this! Eh? Let me engrave the power of the water gun into your memory! Seems like you guys are making a sand castle. Ah, Onii-chan. Ibuki, thanks for staying with Ayumu, but... ...is it fine with you not to swim? Eh?! It’s nothing much, is it? There’s no rule stating that you have to swim when you come to the beach, is there? Ayumu-kun! Can’t swim? But Ibuki, weren’t you able to move along the river by emitting oil bubbles from your butt? There’s no need to remember those kinds of details! Could you at least get back at me with your fist instead of your foot... Being unable to swim isn’t a bad thing. But it’s good to work hard and learn to do things you couldn’t before. Come and learn to swim with me. Yes, if you please! Then, Hinata can learn from Hoshino. Eh? I probably can’t do it... Eh?! That’s right. Keep it up. Yeah, that’s the way. Now put your face down. Put my face down where? Well, wouldn’t that be the sea? O-Okay. That’s right. You can do it if you want to, can’t you? I thought I was going to die! Well, you would if you held your breath for too long... Then say that earlier! I can’t pull that kind of thing off! Also, I would be able to swim if I could pull that off! Ah, Ui-chan, having a break? I was thirsty, so I was thinking of eating some shaved ice. Tsumugi-san, do you know where Kazu-kun is? We were playing together, but he suddenly disappeared... If it’s Kazuma-san, he’s over there. Seems like he’s teaching Ibuki-chan how to swim. Kazu-kun is... teaching Ibuki-chan? That’s right, that’s right! Keep it up! What’s the matter, Ui-chan? Eh? I-It’s nothing! I’ll go buy some shaved ice! Ui-chan... Hey, Madoka-chan. Where’s Tsumugi-san? Tsumugi-san said she had something to do and asked me to look after the belongings. Oh man, I even bought her some shaved ice. Madoka-chan, do you want this? Eh? Is it okay? Yup! Are you okay? It’s because you ate it so quickly... I know, but it doesn’t feel like I’m eating shaved ice if I don’t do it like this. Ah, that was delicious. I’m alone together with Nakatsugawa-senpai. There might not be another chance like this. If I want to know, I have to ask now. Erm, Nakatsugawa-senpai. What is it? I don’t know if it’s right to ask you this though... Go ahead. Then, I’ll ask. What do you think of Kazuma-san? W-What do you mean? Well, that’s... Whether you l-like him or not... Eh?! I don’t dislike him really, and because I don’t dislike him, I kinda like him... Ah, but although I do like him, this is like a love for a brother... Ah! That’s right! It’s the same as liking your own big brother! Big brother? Madoka-chan, why do you ask? That’s because...! How should I put it... That’s... Sorry to keep you waiting! Ah! A watermelon! I thought everyone would like to do watermelon splitting, so I bought it from a seaside store! Then, I’ll go call everyone over! Ah... Eh, if I remember correctly, I, Minamikokubaru Daigo, began watermelon splitting a long time ago, It’s too long! The watermelon will become all slushy! That’s right, that’s right! All right, already! Then... Let the watermelon splitting begin! I’m ready! You really can’t see anything through that, can you? I can’t see through it. I can’t see anything. Then you can’t tell whose chest this is, can you? It’s rather flat... Could it be Ibuki? I told you to get back at me with your fists... Here I come. Right, right! Right, right! Too far right! Not there! Do a half-turn! It’s here, huh? No, it’s here! Take this! Ibuki! You can definitely see through that! Here I go! It’s here! To be able to tell where the watermelon is just by smelling. As expected! That’s amazing, Ui-tch! Well, this is kind of different from watermelon splitting... Okay! We’re going to play beach volleyball, so let’s split up into teams! Where’s Sakai-senpai and Ayumu? I don’t know about Sakai-senpai, but since Ayumu looked tired, Tsumugi-san asked him to rest. Then isn’t Ayumu alone with Tsumugi-san under the parasol? Then could they possibly be... Ayumu-kun. Could you help me rub the oil on my back? O-Okay. You’re good, Ayumu-kun. You’re very good at this. That’s right, rub it all the way into my skin. That’s good. I’m done. Now, it’s Ayumu-kun’s turn. I’ll make you thoroughly sticky with my breasts. Ah! Not possible! This is pretty painful, you know. Tsumugi-san? What is it? Tsumugi-san, do you have something you want to buy? Eh? I was wondering why you worked part-time at Yorozuya Inn. Ah. To me, working at Yorozuya Inn is like a rehearsal. A rehearsal? I was thinking about working at Yorozuya Inn when I grow up. Why do you think that is? Erm... Is it because you like Yorozuya Inn? That’s partly correct. However, what I love isn’t just Yorozuya Inn, but the whole of Yamabiko Town. The beautiful river, the clear blue sky, and the crop fields. And above all that, the warm connections between everyone. Or maybe I think a little too highly of it? I think so too. Thank you. The inn is a place to receive people from other places, isn’t it? If I do my best and manage to please the people there, wouldn’t it make them feel like coming back to my beloved Yamabiko Town? And through that, I want to make lots of people love Yamabiko Town. "This place is great!" "When you are happy, or when you are down, this place always receives you with warmth and kindness!" I’d like to achieve that. That sounds a lot like Onii-chan. Eh? I’m like Kazuma-san? Ah, not that. The fact that Yamabiko Town is always there for you, and always treats you kindly, sounds a lot like Onii-chan. Ah. But I’ve spent so long causing trouble for Onii-chan... That’s wrong, Ayumu-kun. Kazuma-san has been working so hard for you in order to let you smile. However, if you make such a sad face because of that, Kazuma-san would definitely be disheartened. If you’re grateful to Kazuma-san, instead of thinking about how you’ve been causing him trouble, try smiling for his efforts in order to make him smile. Wouldn’t that be good? Make Onii-chan smile... I understand. I don’t know what I can achieve, but I will try my best! Oh... It’s cute... Sakai-senpai! So this is where you went. Everyone’s already changed, and getting ready to head back. So, let’s go. Everyone’s waiting. I’m alone with Hoshino now. It’s a good chance to apologise to him. Hoshino! What is it? Well... I’m sorry. It’s fine! There’s no need to apologise for something like this. Anyway, let’s go! That’s not... what I meant... We had fun today, didn’t we? We sure played a lot! I’ve got to take a bath once I get home. Hey, Ibuki-chan. Hmm? When did Kazu-kun start calling you Ibuki? Eh?! Ah, well... I wonder when it started? I don’t remember... But, why do you ask? Well, there’s no particular reason! I was just curious... I see. Yup. That’s all. Really. That’s all. Ah! This week’s episode gave me so much eye candy, I got all excited! Ayumu, let’s ignore this idiot and move on to the preview. Yup! Next time, on Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, episode 9: Wasps are Diurnal. Also, Ayumu should have worn a micro-bikini school swimsuit. That would have been perfect! That isn’t something a guy would wear. Then it’s fine if it’s something guys wear? Well, that’s... Okay, Ayumu! Next episode, let’s try wearing a loincloth! Okay! "Okay", not! ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 09 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [AAE7957C] So, how’s my newest parfait? It’s sweet and cold, and it’s delicious! Ui-chan, you’re always like that. Ah! The ice cream! Geez, that Daigo... He called me all the way out there, and in the end, it was to show me a "very rare porn magazine" he collected. What’s with that? Huh? Sakai-senpai? Hoshino... What’s wrong? Sitting there all alone... Senpai! Doesn’t seem to be the case. Then... Why? Huh? I’m... hungry. I guess even you eat like that when you’re hungry, right Senpai? Ah, I was just pointing it out. In fact, it’s a good thing. Do you like girls that eat a lot, after all? Eh? Ah, that’s... More importantly, what happened, Senpai? Why were you in such a weak state? I left my house. Left your house?! Leaving the house means there is conflict between the parents and the child, and the child has no intention of going back home. I know what it means! I had an argument with my father, and I just ran out of the house. Without my wallet or a change of clothes... I didn’t bring anything. So what are you going to do now? It’s not possible, even if you look at me with those eyes! As it stands, I’m already freeloading off Yorozuyo Inn, so... I know. Thanks for the bread. I’ll work something out by myself. Ah. Senpai! I’m back... Senpai. This is Hoshino’s room. Although it’s small, please bear with living here for a while. Onii-chan, you came back! Y-Yeah, I’m back. Nee-san said dinner’s ready. Ah, got it. Aren’t you coming? I’ve got some business to take care of first. Tell Nee-san that I’ll be right there. Okay. Senpai, what about your dinner? I just ate a lot, so I’m fine for today. I see. I’ll go eat my dinner, so please wait here for a while. Ah! Kazuma-kun! What’s wrong? You shouted so loudly. Ah, it’s nothing! It’s just... a wasp flew into my room! Wasps are diurnal. That’s not important now! Kazuma-kun, are you okay? Ah, I-I’m fine! It already flew out. W-What in the world were you doing? I was sweaty, so I wanted to clean up my body. If so, you should have just told me! I would have brought you a towel. I’m dressed, so you can turn around. Don’t scare me like that. I forgot to put that on. Paradise, paradise! A bath after work sure is the best! So, Senpai, please sleep here tonight. What about you, Hoshino? I’ll sleep on the floor. I can’t allow that. I’m the one who’s imposing. Therefore, I should be the one to sleep on the floor. Even if you say so... I can’t let a girl sleep on the floor while I sleep in the futon. Then let’s do this. If we do this, we can both sleep in the futon. Uh, that’s a little... Don’t worry, I sleep very peacefully. Well, it’s not that... I definitely won’t kick you. Right... Senpai, what’s the reason for your argument with your father? Ah, if you don’t want to say it, I won’t force you to. I’m thinking of going to Tokyo University. Eh? My father is against that. He thinks if I go to the city, I’ll never come back. I get dizzy if I just get a whiff of alcohol, so making sake is impossible for me. But I could help out with the marketing. So I want to go to university and study business management and product development. Then I want to let more people know about our sake, in as many ways as possible. Senpai, have you told your father about this? I’ve told him many times. The first time I told him I wanted to go to Tokyo University, he got very angry. The second time, both of my parents suddenly became very irritated. And the one after that, my father got angry again. The next time, a huge argument took place. And the time after that, a customer came in just as I was about to talk about it. Ah, it’s fine, I understand. In the end, you didn’t get to say it. I get the feeling that I will never be able to say it. That can’t be true. If a chance comes, you should take it. That’s right. Hoshino. What is it? I’m sorry. It’s fine! No. It’s not that. When we first met, you said my strap was cute. But I misunderstood and got angry. Ah... Don’t make fun of me. I’d been planning to apologise to you for that for a long time. I was worried, since I couldn’t get to say it. Senpai. Although you didn’t get to say it then, you just did, didn’t you? So, Senpai, you will definitely be able to tell your father what you’ve been unable to say. Hoshino. What is it? Thank you. Kazuma-kun! It’s time for you to wake up! Just because it’s summer vacation doesn’t mean you sleep in! Kazuma-kun, are you awake? I’m going to open the door! W-Wait a sec! I understand the circumstances. I’m not thrilled that you didn’t come to talk to me about this from the start, but if a cornered bird flies to the hunter for shelter, the hunter will... ...the hunter will... ...be surprised? Even the hunter will refrain from killing the bird that has flown to him for shelter. Yeah, that’s it! Anyway, with that in mind, as the landlady of Yorozuyo Inn, I can’t ignore someone in need. However, those that don’t work don’t get to eat. While you’re staying here, I’ll have you work as a waitress. Is that fine? It looks great on you. Er, why me too? Since Tsumugi and her family went for short holiday, I’m in need of another person right now. So, I’ll leave things to the two of you. Father. Hina. Seems like you really are working here as a waitress. Next up is cleaning up the entranceway. Nee-san is good when it comes to making people work. I don’t want to! I’m telling you to come back with me! Hey! Stop that! Who are you? I should be asking you that. Huh?! Father, stop it. "Father", that means... Oh, you were that dude from the city... I see. You were influencing Hina. That’s not true. Hoshino has nothing to do with this. Shut up! You have no say in this! She has no say? It’s because you always tell her that, that she can’t get across what she wants to say. Isn’t that true? Huh? You got something to say to me? Senpai’s planning to help your family business. That’s why she’s going to university. What? She wants more people to know about your hand-made sake. To make that happen, she said she wants to study! Is that true, Hina? If that was so, why didn’t you say anything? You didn’t give her a chance to say anything! Shut up! Back off! You back off! This kid...! Just because you came from the city doesn’t mean you can treat your elders that way! Stop right there! Sakai-san, could you curb your violent ways here in Yorozuyo Inn? This kid was being a prick, so... But I’m bringing my daughter back! Kazuma-kun is a valuable customer under our care. And so long as he continues to be viewed as such, your daughter is also a customer of ours. As for me, even if the heavens try to stop me, I will not tolerate any actions that harass our customers! Darling, I got a call from the landlady at Yorozuyo Inn. "Your daughter will be under our care, so please do not worry," she said. Are you listening? You should stop pretending to sleep. Ouch! What are you doing? See? I knew you were awake. You idiot! Even if I was sleeping, I would wake up ’coz of that! I heard from the landlady why Hina wants to go to the city. "She wants to help her father’s business", apparently. Seems like I gave birth to a good girl. It’s not just you that gave birth to that kid. So, what are you going to do? What do you mean, what am I gonna do? She’s our cute daughter, and it’s not like I don’t know why you want to keep her by your side. But you’ve got to keep her feelings in mind. I know that perfectly well. I know that... Eh? Senpai’s father wants to have a battle with me? Well, even though he says "battle", it’s just a tug-of-war contest. Huh? Tug-of-war? It’s an old custom. When two villages are in dispute, they send out their strongest representatives, and in front of Kotama Shrine, they decide who wins by the tug-of-war contest. During my grandmother’s time, there were even things like two men who were both chasing the same girl, and they decided who would get her through the tug-of-war contest. To think that there are still people who want to settle disputes through such a method... But why does he want to challenge me? It seems that he thinks Kazuma-kun is the disgusting insect sticking to his dear daughter. Disgusting insect... So, what are you going to do? Are you going to accept this challenge? Hoshino, it’s fine if you don’t accept it. I don’t want to cause you any more trouble. No, I will accept this. I will make your stubborn father silently accept his defeat. If Kazuma-kun is the winner, she gets to make her own choice. If Sakai-san is the winner, she has to go home quietly. All right? Yes. Seems like you’re ready. Nee-san, do I really have to wear this? Of course. Since this is a customary shrine activity, you’ve got to wear the traditional outfit. Ayumu, why are you wearing that? Well, Nee-san said I had to wear this if I really wanted to cheer for Onii-chan. Do you understand? This is a fight for victory before the gods! Make sure you fight and leave no regrets. The younger kid has the nicer butt, doesn’t he? It’s so smooth. I’m jealous! I wonder if my kid could marry him? Right? Dear mothers! It’s a battle before the gods, so please cease your harassment! So, competitors, please pick up the rope. Start! Onii-chan, you can do it! Hoshino... Come on, put your all into it, Sakai-do! Don’t lose to that kid! It’s gonna be hard to predict the outcome! Father... Senpai... Please fulfil your dream! The outcome is decided! The contest is over! Onii-chan! Senpai? Ah, this was just... Senpai? Darling, are you okay? Well then... Shall we start eating? Father isn’t here yet. Leave him alone. Father has been in a bad mood ever since the contest. He’s holed up in his room and doesn’t want to come out. Maybe he still hasn’t forgiven me. That isn’t the reason. He didn’t want to compete seriously with that Hoshino kid, and was planning to lose to him. Eh? To act as a father silently supporting his daughter, he wanted to throw the match, but before he could do that, he went all out and ran out of stamina. As I thought, in the end, it didn’t go well. He’s sulking because of the bad result. Hmm. Maybe it’s because of age. In the old days he was fast, and he could have handled it easily. Hold on, where are you going? Father. Are you sulking? Father, you’re cute. The times when you’re shy... ...are cute too. Father. Thank you. Ayumu-kun! It’s time for the preview! Ah, he’s asleep. Well, it’s fine. I shall be the replacement. Next time, on Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, episode 10: The Ring, Flowing Down the Stream... Dragonfly... There’s a dragonfly! He said there’s a dragonfly! I wonder what dream he’s having. Now there’s a Japanese Rat Snake! Eh?! A Japanese Rat Snake? Ah! The cobra... Onii-chan’s King Cobra is...! Ayumu-kun! Run! ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 10 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [1F62A93A] Ah, Madoka-chan. Good afternoon. Is everyone here to pray? Madoka-chan, didn’t you hear? There was a tug-of-war contest at the altar. I’ve been reading books to the children at the library all morning, so... Oh, but I think my grandfather mentioned something along those lines yesterday. By the way, who was having the tug-of-war contest? Sakai-san from the Sakai family, and you know, the one from the big city... Is it Kazuma-san? Yeah, that’s right. The kid that comes by my store once in a while. But, why on Earth did Kazuma-san have a... ...tug-of-war contest with the father of the Sakai family? Ah, well... I only came because I heard of the event from the master... I only came because I heard of it from Yorozuya Inn’s Nakai-san, but I didn’t hear any specifics... You people came here all fired up without knowing anything? For ages, tug-of-war contests have always been about trying to win the hand of someone’s daughter. Eh? Then... My guess is that Kazuma-kun tried to ask for her hand in marriage, and Sakai’s father doesn’t want to let her go. I see, so they had this tug-of-war to decide who gets the only daughter. This is so nostalgic. When I tried to ask for my wife’s hand in marriage, her father was really against it, and it came down to using the tug-of-war contest to decide the result. Back then, tug-of-war was called the "Boring Pull", and... Yes, hello? Bro, it’s me. Oh, it’s just Daigo. Please, save me! Huh? Oba-san, good afternoon! My, if it isn’t Koyori-chan. You’ve come back from your vacation. Was Hawaii fun? Yep! I brought some souvenirs. Where’s Madoka? She’s here, but she’s not feeling too well. Ah... Is she sick? It’s not that bad. It’s probably just the summer heat. But... Yes. Ever since we had that tug-of-war contest on our grounds, she started feeling strange. Tug-of-war? Isn’t that what they used to do instead of a battle? But why? Hmm... I’m not sure, myself. But, I think if she sees your face, she’ll feel better, so please go inside and see her. Ah, I see. She hasn’t been feeling well ever since the tug-of-war contest. Yeah... Well, that must be it. Kazuma-kun would be the reason. What?! You’re saying Kazuma did something to Madoka? Eh? Ah, that’s not it. Listen up, Koyori-chan. The tug-of-war before the altar has been called the "Boring Pull". It’s a pun on "rope" and "boring"... Ahem. Thank you, everyone, for taking part in this "Last Minute Summer Homework Rush" emergency meeting! In order to enjoy the remainder of our summer holiday properly, we should collect our homework and brainstor Kazuma! Are you here?! I’m here. What’s wrong? Kazuma! You... Are you really getting married to Hina?! Huh? Married? Now I get it. Kazuma and Hina aren’t getting married. Of course not! How could you even think of something like that in the first place... But, I didn’t know that you were in a tug-of-war contest. If you had told me about it, I would have cheered for you. Ah, well... Showing your half-naked body and fighting for your senpai, you have a surprisingly good side to you. It can’t be helped that I was in Hawaii and couldn’t be there... As Fast-Ears Toudou Kasane, I regret it a lot... Onii-chan used all of his strength, and he was very cool. Ah, hey. Don’t say anything unnecessary. Okay, I’ll go tell Madoka what really happened. Huh? Why to Madoka-chan? Yep! Ever since the tug-of-war, Madoka hasn’t been feeling well, and Gen-jii told me it was because she thought that Kazuma and Hina were getting married. If she knows that’s not the case, she’ll definitely Hold on a second! So basically... that means... ...Madoka-chan likes Kazuma?! Eh?! Is that so?! If you were to ask me, it’d make me feel weird... Actually, you came here without knowing that? Koyo-nee tends to not think things through. A-Anyway, I’m going to tell Madoka! Hey, Koyori! And there they go. Hmm. Thing are getting pretty interesting. I think so, too. So, what is it? Calling us out here in this heat. If it’s anything stupid, you’re in for it. That’s right! If it’s anything stupid, it’s cold and sweet and it’s delicious! Ui, decide whether you want to complain or talk about your parfait. Daigo-senpai, more importantly... Ah, that’s right. Actually, for this discussion, I’m thinking about bringing Madoka-chan and my bro together. And, I want everyone to help out. We all know that Madoka-chan is a well developed girl, and even though my bro is from the city, he’s a surprisingly innocent boy. So, as his friends, let’s be the Love Cupids Hmph. Nonsense. Hinata, you’re against this? It doesn’t matter if I’m for or against it. Why do I have to do it in the first place? What do you mean, "why"? Isn’t it because we’re their friends? Doing things like this is normal. Anyway, I’m not going to help you guys. Ah, Ibuki-chan! Wait! Wait up, Ibuki-chan! What’s wrong, Ibuki-chan? This really isn’t like you. Ui... Ui, you’re fine with that? Bringing that guy together with Madoka-chan. That’s... Well... To me, Kazu-kun is like a brother... So, well... Okay. If you’re fine with that, then it’s all right. Ibuki-chan? You want me to date Kazuma-san?! Yes! We discussed this with Daigo-senpai, and decided to support Koumoto-senpai’s love! L-Love?! We’ve thought of a good plan, so don’t worry and just go straight for it! We’re going to arrange for everyone to go to the amusement park, so we’ll be calling Ayumu’s brother. Then, we’ll suddenly tell him that we have last minute plans, and won’t be able to come. Senpai, please go on a date with him. D-Date... The details are all written in here, so please read it before you go out. Now, how did this happen? Daigo, Koyori and Kasane-chan all had last minute things come up, and couldn’t come. That’s true... I wonder what happened... Ui and Ibuki already said they had plans of their own, and Ayumu has a drawing session with his art club. That means it’s just the two of us, Madoka-chan. Since we’re all on our own, let’s have as much fun as we can for the people who couldn’t come. Okay! Such a great atmosphere, right? Hey. I’m fine with it, but did I really have to dress up like this? Of course! Since Daigo-senpai and I are already disguised, you have to do the same, Koyo-nee. Okay! Madoka-chan, where do you want to go first? Let’s see... Er... If I remember correctly, the date guidebook had the jet coaster as the first ride. Let’s take the jet coaster first That’s surprising. I didn’t think you’d be too keen on a ride like this. I’m definitely not afraid of these things... That’s right, Koumoto-senpai! First off, take the jet coaster, raise the tension with her loud screaming, and improve their relationship with this event! Let me down! I’ll fall! Mum! Are you okay? Madoka-chan, are you really fine with this? O-Of course! Even though I’m shaking, I am a shrine maiden! Ghosts are my strong suit. And, next up is the couple’s entrance into the haunted house! When they go in and become scared beyond their worst nightmares, they are sure to cling together, and there will definitely be an increase in affection! Madoka-chan, it’s already over. S-Sorry! Kazuma-san, Kazuma-san! It’s eating, it’s eating! Up next is the petting zoo! Feeding the cute rabbits will result in an awkward moment where their hands make contact, and thus create a strong bond of love! I’ll feed the rabbit, too. This rabbit loves to eat! It’s just like Ui. Whoa! They do say "The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach." Using a large amount of food, she’s bound to capture the heart of the hungry man! Did you make all this, Madoka-chan? Yes! I woke up early, and tried my best. I hope you like it. If Ui saw this, she’d be so happy and salivating over this! I’m digging in! Hey, this is delicious! Wow! It sure is high up here in the Ferris wheel! Madoka-chan, we had fun today. Yes, we did. We should all come here next time. I think so, too. Let’s come here with everyone next time. Oh, they’re here! Madoka doesn’t seem too happy. Tch, tch, tch! That’s why being young is such a hassle. What did you say? What do you mean, Daigoro? According to my observations, that is the "shy and wants to keep her distance" symptom after a kiss. M-Madoka kissed Kazuma?! Most likely. Then... are they going to get married?! Eh? No, you’re thinking too far ahead. But... they kissed! Aren’t they going to have a kid?! They definitely have to get married! W-What’s so funny?! I wasn’t joking! Kazuma-san! Madoka-chan, what’s with those clothes... I wanted to change my image, so I borrowed these from Koyori-chan. Are they... weird? Ah, that’s not it. I was shocked, though. It was very different. Why did you suddenly ask me out for a hike? On top of that, just the two of us... That’s because... Well... The bus is here! How lucky that we caught it on time. We would’ve had to wait a while if we missed this one. Ah, yeah... So, this is the path that Ayumu was talking about. It’s more of a hiking course than a path. Since children can easily climb up the mountain using this course, I often used to come and play here. I see. This place... Kazuma-san! Hurry! Eh? Ah. I’ll lay out the sheet now. Was that girl... back then... you, Madoka-chan? I was pretty awkward around boys, and I didn’t play much at the shrine. So, I came here often to play by myself. One day, a boy I didn’t know came here to play, too. That boy was different from the children at the shrine. He was kind, and was a very nice person. To me, he felt just like my knight in shining armour. Although we only played once, I couldn’t forget that boy. I kept remembering that time when we had so much fun together. And slowly, I started feeling like we had been playing every day. Thinking back, it might have been love at first sight... If that was the case, you should have just said something when we first met. That’s true. You’re right, but when we met at the shrine for the first time, it was very sudden. I had no idea what to do. I see. So many things happened after that, and you never had a good chance to tell me about this. I was hoping that Kazuma-san might remember me without me saying anything. I had always been thinking about Kazuma-san. No, a one-in-a-thousand chance, I had hoped that Kazuma-san would remember me. I wanted a place in Kazuma-san’s heart, no matter how small. I wore these clothes today because I thought Kazuma-san... ...would remember me if I tried to dress like when we first met. Sorry. I didn’t realise you had thought of that. Although it happened when I was little, I shouldn’t have forgotten your name. Back then, your hair was short and you had a totally different personality. It’s fine. I’m happy that you remembered me this way. Madoka-chan, I I understand. Kazuma-san’s feelings. Kazuma-san, do you remember? What you said that day when we were saying farewell... Madoka-chan... Could you tell me those words again? It’s strange. Even though we’re not saying farewell, I still feel like crying. That’s right, Madoka-chan. From now on, we’ll be friends forever. Okay! Next time on Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, episode 11: When the Rain Falls. ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 11 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [28E74143] What a waste, though... To think that you actually rejected Madoka-chan! It doesn’t matter whether I accepted or rejected her. I’ve already told you, time and time again, there’s nothing between us! You’ve been bugging me non-stop about this ever since school started, too. That’s because it’s Madoka-chan! That... That... ...poyoyon, poyoyon, purururunru Good morning... Good morning, Madoka-chan. So they chose Tsumugi-san to play the role of Megami for this years festival. Yup! Hina-senpai and I are going to play the role of the Arks. Ah, the ones holding the scrolls for the Megami, right? But, wouldn’t it be better to choose the Megami with a vote? Eh? The Ogami’s role is played by Hoshino this year, right? Wouldn’t it be a good chance to confess bravely to him during the ceremony? Eh?! What are you talking about, Ibuki-chan?! Sure, I’ve heard stories about people confessing during the ceremony, but they all happened long ago, and the one who confessed was the Ogami These days, men and women are equal. It’d be fine, even if the Megami confessed, wouldn’t it? Ah, I see. That’s not the point! Kazu-kun is more of a... How should I put it...? Like an older brother... Confessing would be a little... If you keep telling yourself that, someone else might steal him. What do you mean by "another girl"...? For example, Hina-senpai, or maybe Koyori-chan... That’s impossible! ...or maybe... ...me. Eh? I was just joking! Oh, it was just a joke. Gosh, don’t scare me like that! "Just a joke", huh? A confession? It’s just so sudden. I don’t know what to do. What if I really did confess to him and he said "Okay"? And, then... And, then... maybe...! Ah, yes. Have to pick it up. Hello? Ah, Ayumu-kun? Eh?! You want me... to be your model?! You sure slept in, didn’t you? Ah, good morning. It’s already afternoon, you know. Even if it’s Sunday, aren’t you taking it a bit too easy? Sorry about that. I stayed up late yesterday Huh? What’s wrong? Ah, nothing. It feels like déjà vu... I feel like this has happened before. Does the déjà vu matter? It’s been like this every Sunday since you got here. Now, please eat your food and go out for a walk or something. I’m going to clean your room, and it’ll be a pain if you’re around. Y-Yes, ma’am. Well then, I’ll be off. Have a good time. Take your time on your stroll, okay? Ayumu-kun! She says stroll, but... I have no choice but to go back to the shrine again. No, maybe I should pay a visit to the shopping district. Oh, Ibuki? Ah! H-Hoshino... What are you doing here? I’m not doing anything. It’s just... I had some time off. So, the same as me, then. You want some? I don’t. I don’t want an indirect kiss with you. Don’t you usually go out with Ui when you’re free? I do. All the time. But she said she had plans today. I see. And, she’s alone with him right now, and she might say something weird. I know! Hey, let’s go to Honchou and play! Wait, just the two of us? When I couldn’t go because I had club activities, you guys went to Honchou and had fun, right? Ah, yeah... This is the time to compensate! Hmm... Okay! Let’s go and take revenge for you, then! Yup! Excuse me... I’m sorry to have you come on a Sunday. It’s fine! I didn’t have anything planned, anyway. I’ll be taking out my equipment now. Then, I’ll... W-Why are you taking off your clothes? Eh?! Ah, I’m sorry! When I heard that I was going to be a model for your picture, I assumed it was going to be a nude one... That’s not what I wanted! All that singing made me thirsty. Yes? Sorry to disturb you. Wow! This is their famous Honey Toast! Huh? Did we ask for this? Today is Couple’s Day, so we’re doing a special service. Couple?! To preserve this memory, we will take a photo of you drinking this together. Will that be all right? Ui-san, let’s take a break. Yup! Oyake really are the best in autumn! You must be tired from sitting still the whole time. I’m sorry. I’m not tired, but my shoulders are a bit stiff. I should have told you earlier, but when I’m done with this picture, I want to give it to Onii-chan as a present! Eh?! To Kazu-kun? You don’t want me to? Ah, I’m fine with it, but why? During summer vacation, when we went to the beach, Tsumugi-san told me this: That’s wrong, Ayumu-kun. Kazuma-san has been working so hard for you in order to let you smile. However, if you make such a sad face because of that, Kazuma-san would definitely be disheartened. If you’re grateful to Kazuma-san, instead of thinking about how you’ve been causing him trouble, try smiling for his efforts in order to make him smile. Wouldn’t that be good? That’s why I was thinking about what I could do to make Onii-chan smile. Then, I remembered that when I was small, I gave Onii-chan a picture and he was really happy with it. So... "Thinking about what I could do to make Onii-chan smile"... But, why did you choose me to be your model? Well, isn’t Ui-san dating Onii-chan? Eh?! That’s why I thought that Onii-chan would be happiest with a picture of the girl he likes. Was I wrong? Kasane-chan said that the reason why Onii-chan didn’t want to date Madoka-san... ...was because he was already dating you. So, I assumed... That’s not true! I’m not dating Kazu-kun yet Actually, Kazu-kun is like a brother to me... That’s not right. Tsumugi-san! Kazuma-san is Ayumu-kun’s brother. Not Ui-chan’s. Oh, this is very well-drawn! When it’s done, Kazuma-san will definitely be very happy. Good luck with the rest! Thank you very much for today. And, please keep this a secret from Onii-chan. Yup, I will... Well, it’s just if... If I really dated Kazu-kun, would you be fine with it? Well, if I dated Kazu-kun, I would be taking your brother away from you. Even so... Even so, Ayumu-kun, are you fine with that? That’s true... If that happened, I might become lonely. But, if that makes Onii-chan smile, I’ll be happy, too! Ah, that was fun! Looks like we managed to get your revenge, huh? Yup! Ah, just when I was wondering what you were drinking... Did you really want to drink that cream soda with me back then? Idiot! That’s not true! Do you think we really looked like a couple? So... Do you want to keep going, and date me for real? Eh? What are you talking about? Keep the jokes to a limit. That’s true! Sorry for saying something weird. Just kidding! Just kidding... Do you think we really looked like a couple? Do you want to keep going, and date me for real? That’s true! Sorry for saying something weird. Ibuki! Sorry! Well... It’s... I think I misunderstood you. It’s really embarrassing! When you asked if we should date... If... If you were being serious, I’m really sorry! It was really sudden, so I didn’t know what to say, and it turned out like that... You’re an idiot. That was... That was obviously a joke. Yet you still came running back like that. That’s so stupid. That was... That couldn’t have been true. I’m back. Welcome home! My, you’re soaking wet. Yeah. I got rejected. "Thinking about what I could do to make Onii-chan smile", huh? Even though I like my brother, I never tried to make him happy. On top of that, I gave him and his wife Kuriko-san a sad face. Why didn’t I say "Congratulations" on that day...? If I had congratulated them properly, Onii-chan would definitely have been happy. That’s it! Even though it’s very late, and it might not make him happy, I’ll call Onii-chan! And I’ll give him the "Congratulations!" I couldn’t say that day! Ah, Onii-chan, it’s me! Oh, what a coincidence. I was just about to give you a call Listen, Onii-chan! Well, I... I have something to tell you, Onii-chan. It might seem a bit sudden, but... I just have to tell you. So, well... well... Anyway, congratulations! What a shock. How did you know? Kuriko had a baby. I found out when I went to the hospital, and when I was just about to call you, you called me. Hey, Ui. Will you repeat what you just said to Kuriko, too? Ah... Yup! My, you’re up early. Do you have morning practice at the Archery Club? That’s not it. I have something to take care of. I see. Have you eaten your breakfast? Then, I’ll be off! Hoshino Kazuma, you idiot! You’re the worst person around here! Okay! Ibuki-chan! Ibuki-chan! Ui, what’s wr Listen! Listen, listen! There’s a baby on the way! Eh?! And now I’m an aunt! Hold on, calm down a bit! I’m telling you, Onii-chan had a baby! Oh, the one that gave birth isn’t Onii-chan, but his wife. I know that. Wait, so you’re an aunt...! Yup! Next time, on Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi, the final episode: The Starry Bridge that Leads to the Night Sky. So, we’ve finally reached the end. Thinking back, a lot of things have happened. Things like "It tasted like cheese", "If you insert an acorn it hurts". Also "Pink Nyanbobo", "Onii-chan’s King Cobra is chasing after me", "Since this isn’t panties but a Fundoshi, I’m not embarrassed". I had doubts about impure love, but in the end, it has to end like this! Loving your little brother is just! No matter what you write it with, it’s just! ▶ [Doki-Chihiro] Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi - 12 (1920x1080 h264 BD FLAC) [7E62CBBE] Eh?! I’m playing the role of the Ogami in the festival? How did that happen? You didn’t know? The winner of the Hikonan Race is assigned the role of the Ogami for that year. Didn’t I tell you? I never heard anything like that. Anyway, didn’t Koyori win the race? No matter how much of a tomboy Koyori-chan is, she’s still a girl. She obviously isn’t suitable for the role of the Ogami, right? Well, I suppose so. You’re the runner-up, Kazuma-kun, so you’re going to do it. Fate has chosen you as our participant, so please do your best. Okay... But is it really okay? A person like me, from the big city, playing such an important role? What are you talking about? We’re more than happy to have you for this, actually! Although this festival is for celebrating the legend of the Twin Mountains, to be the helper of the gods, or basically, taking in other people from other towns, is considered a divine blessing. That’s why we’re hoping people like you, Kazuma-kun, will come to our town to play the Ogami role and create a fresh new batch of descendants. What are you talking about so early in the morning?! Onii-chan, what does "descendants" mean? Well, that’s... Nee-san! Must be nice, playing the role of the Ogami. You really think so? Hey, the Megami is played by Tsumugi-san, you know. That poyoyon poyoyon tapun tapun...! That’s all you think about, huh? Hey Bro, how about you take this chance and confess your love? Why do I have to do that?! Didn’t you know? In the past, the Ogami was allowed to confess to the Megami during the calling-out ceremony. Eh? I see. Tsumugi-san is great, but normally the one chosen for the role of Megami is the most beautiful girl in town. Of course, there are guys who would want to make their move on her, and in fact, the Hikonan Race was originally founded as a way to fight for the right to confess. Really? A few generations ago, there were quite a few cases where the Megami and the Ogami ended up together because of this. There’s even a rumour that those who have confessed their love... ...and become a couple because of the race will bring about a good harvest year. But why do I have to confess to Tsumugi-san? Good morning! What are you two discussing so early in the morning? What’s up with Tsumugi-san? Ah, it’s nothing... Good morning! Ah... good morning. Geez, my mum talks so much. She never stops! Bro, you have anything planned today? Shall we all go to Backpipe? I’ll pass. I’ve got club activities. Me too. I have to attend a meeting at the shrine. So that means Ui, too? Y-Yup, that’s right. Tch. Can’t be helped. I’ll just go grab a bite and head home then. If you’re feeling lonely, I’ll accompany you. Since the festival is coming up, you must be in a festive mood. I’ll quench that thirst for fun you’ve got! We shall have a face-to-face talk with each other! Well, it sure was a surprise to hear that I was going to play the Ogami. I guess so. I would’ve been surprised, too. Um... What is it? Well, you see... You first. It’s nothing. There’s no conversation. When did you show up? At least tell us you’re there! What’s wrong? If we don’t hurry, we’ll be late. Wow! Amazing! It suits you, Onii-san! You look really handsome. Thank you... Then, I’ll be taking a shot! Eh? Kasane-chan, I don’t mind the photos, but why are you here? I’m collecting data! As the "Fast Eared Girl" of Yamabiko Town, I can’t just pass up such juicy information! Ah, for your information, I’m not taking Mugi-nee’s photo to sell to the Koutobu brothers. I’m totally not doing that. Sorry to have kept you waiting! Wow! Mugi-nee, you’re beautiful! Thank you, Kasane-chan. Hina-senpai and Nakatsugawa-senpai both look like shrine maidens. They’re great, too! Sorry to have kept you waiting. The tea is here. Sorry to have you help us, when you’re a guest. It’s nothing. You weren’t used to that outfit, so you must be tired. Ah, not really. Where’s Nakatsugawa-senpai? She’s in the washroom. She said that since she had to stay in full dress, she was holding it all this time. My, she should have just said so. Excuse me, I need to go to the washroom, too. That reminds me, Koumoto-senpai is playing the role of the Angel this year, right? Yes. That’s why I’ve been busy practising every day. Won’t you model your outfit for us? I could, but it doesn’t have to be now... I want to see Senpai wearing that outfit! I know! Since we’re at it, do you mind striking a pose and letting me take a photo of you? Isn’t that good? You’ll have to show yourself in that outfit anyway. Then it’s decided! After we finish eating our bean jelly, let’s go and get you changed! Eh?! Ui-chan. Tsumugi-san.. Could I talk to you for a bit? Ui-chan, did you have a fight with Kazuma-san? Then, why? I noticed that something is different between you and Kazuma-san. That’s... I’m sorry. I realised. Eh? I’ve been thinking about Kazu-kun being like a brother to me, and because of that, when I’m with him, I always have fun, and I get soft, warm feelings of happiness. But... But, my brother is my brother, and I realised that Kazu-kun isn’t him. And then, I couldn’t find a way to speak normally to Kazu-kun. When our eyes make contact, my chest tightens suddenly, and when I’m alone at home, all I think about is Kazu-kun and my cheeks get all hot... Ui-chan, that’s love. No! That’s not true! That’s not true... It’s just that my heart races when I think about Kazu-kun. It’s not l-love or anything! It’s... It’s totally different. I mean... Ui and Tsumugi-san are really taking a while. I wonder what happened. Hoshino. Why didn’t you tell Ui that she was cute? Where did that question come from?! Hoshino, you thought Ui was cute when you looked at her, but you didn’t say it. Why? "Why?" you ask... That time when I left my house and my dad came to bring me back, Hoshino, you helped me say what I wanted to say. Back then, I was really happy. But after that, I realised that I had to say what I wanted to say on my own. I had always wanted to apologise for misunderstanding and getting angry at you. That’s why I was really happy when I finally managed to apologise to you properly. Hoshino, if you have something you want to say, you should speak up about it. Senpai. Ui-chan, that’s love. Love, huh? That’s... I don’t even know, myself. Love... I don’t even know what it is. That’s the third time you’ve yawned this morning. What happened? I was up late last night. Are you all right? Don’t you have to practise for the festival after school? Yup. I’ll sleep during lunch break. I’ll be fine. Well then, I’ll make a brief run-through of the festival procedure. I’ll be more detailed about the difficult parts during the practice sessions, so please try to get a general idea of the procedures. First, Madoka will be playing the Angel and will arrive in the human realm. After that, the Ogami, waiting at the bottom of the steps, will receive the scroll from the Angel. Next, the Ogami will descend the flight of stone steps, and ride the carriage waiting at the bottom. The Megami will change into the ceremonial clothes and stand by with the two Arks. Tsumugi-chan has experience with the Ark role, so this part should be fine for you, right? Yes. After the Ogami’s carriage has started moving, we will contact you, and at the arranged time, the Megami and the Arks will set off. When you reach the bridge, they will start playing the taiko, which signals the start of the calling-out ceremony. The Ogami will read the scroll he received from the Angel, while the Megami will read the scroll she received from the Arks. Every year, the scrolls are written by the Angel, aren’t they? Yes. Using dew collected on the morning of the festival, I make ink and write the scrolls. So, Koumoto-senpai can write those squiggly words! Erm, one question... What is it, Kazuma-kun? "Those squiggly words" refers to the words on the scrolls, right? I can’t read any of those words at all. It’ll be fine. For both scrolls, the furigana for the words will be written on the remaining space in the scrolls. Oh, I see... Are you relieved? Yes. If all I have to do is read what’s written. That’s why you have to keep your cool. Even though you’re just reading from the scroll, if you bring out your feelings while saying those words, it will become a statement of truth to the Megami. If you bring out your feelings while saying those words, it will become a statement of truth. Ah! Hmm? Hello? Tsumugi-senpai? Eh? You want to pretend that you’re sick? It’s about time. They said that you should go and change. Ah, okay! Then... Mugi-nee, what’s wrong? My stomach... My stomach suddenly... Eh?! Ah, we need a doctor... No, call an ambulance! I’m fine, Ui-chan. If I rest, it should go away. But... More importantly, the Megami role... It’s impossible, Mugi-nee. It would be better to ask for a replacement. Ui-chan, could you do it for me? Eh?! I can’t do it! Asking me to be the Megami out of the blue... Ui-chan, since you’ve been practising with me for so long, you should know the procedure, right? Just do it as you’re supposed to. That’s why, please... But, if I do that, then we’ll be one Ark short... That’s fine. There’s a replacement Ark here. Eh?! Me?! Impossible, impossible, impossible! Kasane has been taking photos of us practising for quite a while. You should be familiar with the procedure, too. I guess so. It’s an emergency! "Do it", or "Please do it": Take your pick! Please let me do it! Onii-chan, concentrate! Even though you’re just reading from the scroll, if you bring out your feelings while saying those words, it will become a statement of truth to the Megami. Hoshino, if you have something you want to say, you should speak up about it. I love you, Ui Although it might not have been from the moment we met, when I realised it, when I was with you, well... Anyway, I love you Ui! What’s your reply? I.. I... I can’t hear you! Say it louder! I... Kazu-kun... too... Louder, Ui! I love Kazu-kun, too! I love you. I love you. I really love you! Don’t be shy, we’ve got lots of sake and food, so please speak up if you want more! Sorry to bother you. A bunch of guys who can drink to their heart’s content here. What are you saying? Letting me serve you sake to fill you up on the day of the festival is my pleasure. But! I won’t forgive you if you drink too much and ruin the place. But, to think we would see another confession during the calling-out ceremony... It reminds me of what you did back then. Sadly, you were rejected, right? Gen-san, that’s a personal matter. Another glass! Erm, dear Mother, it seems like you’ve had quite a bit to drink. Any more would be... Huh?! You got something to say to your mother?! I only drink so much in the first place because you cause me so much trouble! Do you get it? Understood! Well then, fill ’er up! Yes! Eh? Ayumu, you’re an artist! Could I have you draw one of me next time? Even though I look like this, when I’m nude, I’m actually pretty great. Eh? What’s up with that thing, Koyo-nee? It’s nice, isn’t it? I got it while playing ring toss at the festival! Ah! Don’t touch that part! This is very delicious! Mugi-nee, didn’t you have a stomach ache? My, did I? We were rejected. That’s right. I wasn’t really rejected or anything. Hmm? Well, whatever. Wow! We saw it, huh? The bridge that leads to the starry sky. It’s beautiful. That’s right. You are very beautiful.
