[FEMALE STUDENT 2A]
Oh, my gosh.
There's one boy here
that I'm totally into!
Same here!
Do you mean the blonde guy?
Yeah, yeah!
He's too beautiful to be real!
Ah? That guy?
[both laughs]
[FEMALE STUDENT 2B]
For real? Where?
What a cutie!
[UKA]
Takamine. Seto. Endou.
And Miura.
They're all together.
It's so crazy.
Did all that stuff
really happen to me yesterday?

[metal creaking]
I'm still doubting myself.
I need to stop!

[gasps]
Hmm.
[gasps]
Morning.
So nice to see you again.

[UKA]
I don't know.
Maybe it really didn't happen.

Speak up.
[gasps]
C'mon, try again.
[gasps]
-Morning!
-[all gasping]
Yeah.
Maybe scale it back?
Morning, Ishimori!
[gasps]
[UKA] Before, I started
my days with a prayer
to keep my heart
out of harm's way.
"Please let me
get through the day
as still as a stone."
But starting today,
I won't ask for that.
[Uka whimpering]
Whoa, you good?
She's kinda funny, huh?
[sighs]
[breathing heavily]

SPARKLE 2 TURNING
INTO A TREASURE
[MARIN] Keep going!
Quick, take the shot!
[SATORU]
Uh-oh.
There's that stone face
we've heard about.
Yeah, she's completely
frozen up.
[UKA] I can't move around
too much during gym class.
You are always
getting in the way!
Stay back and don't move!
[UKA] Gotta make sure
I'm not in the way.
But still,
that does look like fun.
Uh!
Now, she's pretending to play.
Does she seem okay to you?
What do you think?
-Uh?
-Huh?
-[KAI] Ayumi.
-Hm?
[AYUMI]
'Sup?
[whispering]
Hm?
Uh, are you sure?
[KAI]
Just do it.
[thumping]
What was that?
[sighs]
[ASUMI]
Over here!
-[MIKARIN] Pass the ball!
-[groaning]
[YUKINO]
Do something already!
Hmm.
[AYUMI]
Ishimori!
[gasps]
-But why her?
-Since when can she catch?
[UKA] Endou actually
passed the ball to me.
-[Uka sighs]
-You got this! Go for it!
[UKA]
Yeah, I have to try!
-[gasps]
-Wait, what?
[UKA] I didn't realize
she could play basketball!

[panting]
How's that?

[gasps]
UhI'm sorry.
[all cheering]
[indistinct chatter]
[ASUMI] You've got some
real moves, Ishimori!
[YURU]
Yeah, nice shot!
[MARIN]
That was nothing but net!
I've imagined
doing that a lot before.
♪
-How'd you know?
-Luck.
[SATORU]
No kidding?
Hey, where are you going?
Kai told me to pass to you,
but I wasn't expecting that!
-Me too.
-I was nervous.
Really didn't wanna
put you on the spot.
[AYUMI]
But, hey, I figured
Kai wouldn't say that
just to be mean.
[UKA]
Yeah.
I don't think he would, either.
[clattering]
[UKA'S DAD]
I'm impressed.
It seems like your students
are actually taking
their studies seriously.
I leave my daughter
in your capable hands.
[ABE] Very good.
There's nothing to worry about.
Thank you, Mister Ishimori.
Good day, then.
♪
[SATORU]
Yo, Ishimori.
Sowhy'd you
pick this school?
-Huh?
-[AYUMI] I wanna know, too!
Hmm.
Because it spoke to me.
There are things here
I've only ever dreamed of.
[AYUMI]
Like what?
The students here
are having fun.
There's a sense of freedom,
like, in a good way.
Can't argue there.
Hachimitsu's the perfect fit
if you wanna slack off a bit.
We barely ever have
to study for tests,
and our school events go
way harder than they need to!
Plus, the rules are lax.
So, how would you
wanna spend your time?
♪
I'd like to hang out
with friends after school.
Maybe try staying out
past curfew for once.
[AYUMI] We could sneak
into the school after dark!
Yeah!
[UKA]
I want to try it all!
Anything I wouldn't do before!
-[KAI] Not happening.
-[gasps]
[TOGETHER]
Huh?
Quit faking.
Do you think you're like that?
Cut the crap.
[Uka gasps]
Hey, c'mon, man.
Where's the attitude
coming from?
Lookie here!
Kai, wanna hang out?
I think I'll pass.
[FEMALE STUDENT 2B]
Such a meanie!
Come chat with us, please!
[FEMALE STUDENT 2A]
Your friends can come with,

-Hey, are you okay?
Yeah, I'm all right.
[UKA]
Even if it's true,
I didn't expect
to hear it from him.
Let's go.
♪
[whimpering]
[AYUMI]
Hold up, Kai!
Don't you think you were
kinda hard on her back there?
Last I checked, you were
trying to help her, right?
She's a pain.
[AYUMI]
Is that all you have to say?
[footfall]
[machine whirring]
♪
[UKA] I can't deny
any of that, though.
It's not like my dreams
will really come true.
Even if things were
going well for a while.
I've had a lot of dreams.
I wonder
is everyone like this?
[glass shattering]
[MIZOGUCHI]
What are you doing?

[MASASHI]
Shut your trap!

-Hm.

Ah? For my sake?
Yeah, that's sweet and all.
Oh, right, and that
blonde jerk's name is Miura.
No, I don't know
where he's at
Ah?

[REMI] [whimpering]
He's here!
And I think he heard
everything I said!
What are we supposed to do now?
See what I mean by a pain?

Miura's coming here

when I look at Miura,
it's love.

But I can't deny it.
There's someone I like, now.

This'll be on the test,
so commit it to memory.
If you can't do that,
at least write it down.

Wake up!

More like "comatose."

be your age again.
You don't know
how good you have it.
Living without a care
in your heart,
or a thought in your head.
[UKA]
No, you're wrong.
Miura's the most thoughtful guy
I've ever met.
He pays attention
to the people around him,
and he knows what they'll do.
Plus, he's always super honest
about what he thinks.
Actually, if I'm being honest,
I don't even know him
well enough
to talk about him like that.
[indistinct chatter]
Wow, nice earrings!
[chuckles]
Thanks, they're new!
[UKA]
Oh, those are cute.
They look great.
Seriously!

Hold on, she's blushing.

even I can tell
they have good chemistry.
Wow.
♪
I wonder how he really sees me.
♪
From that look?
A pain in the neck.

Yo, Kai.

Anyway
I need to focus on making sure
I don't screw
things up for him.

Oh, yeah!
Woof, that uniform
does not look good.

Who's the nerdy chick?
-New friend of yours?

Just some girl that went
to junior high with us.
Oh?
Well, see ya later.

[UKA] Miura said that stuff
back then for my protection.
But stilleven

Sorry about that.
It seems we got here

Now you go home earlier?
C'mon!

Remember what I said.
About your dreams?

You meant it?
I thought you were joking!
Like I'd joke about that!

[TOMOYA]
Sorry.
Right now,
it's just kinda hard to tell
if you two get along at all.
You really shouldn't be
worried about it, Ishimori.
He's the one who's being
awkward at the moment.
He usually
doesn't talk to girls.
[UKA]
Huh?
Yeah, and now you see why.
[sighs]
[UKA] You know, he said
something yesterday.
He mentioned
following through with me.
If I get all weird
and stony again,
I'd be getting
in his way even more.
Gotta pull myself together.

Shall we walk you home?
No, I'll be all right.
Really!
Ah, I mean,
aren't you on your
way somewhere?
We're both off to karaoke.
Got a few folks waiting on us.

Karaoke?
Listen, would it be okay
if I walked with you,
just to the entrance?
[KAI] Dunno.
Where's your place?
That way.
Just past
the pedestrian bridge.
Ah?
Well, I can walk you that far.

No one else even noticed
she existed.
Hm?
So, it was easy
to rock her world.
All it took was you
talking to her a bit.

There are worse things.
And honestly?
I think she's pretty cute.
