The Times I Spent with You
[door opens]
You're late, you know.
Dinner's ready and waiting.
[MIZUHO] [sighs]
Thank goodness!
I'm starving!
[SHUGO] You should
always rush straight home
whenever I'm here.
[door closes]
Whoa, you saw Shin?
He could have joined the party
if he'd let us know.
It was spur of the moment.
He seemed really busy
but I think he's fine.
[SHUGO] Jeezthat guy
has the absolute worst timing.
He's missing out
on Chef Shugo's
homecooked masterpiece!
[cutlery clanking]
[MIZUHO]
Hmm, it's so good!
The beef melts in your mouth!
Are you surprised?
No wonder you own
a successful restaurant.
Though, I'm still shocked
you dropped out of college
and became a professional chef
out of nowhere.
Same here, but you never know
what life has in store for you.
Almost forgot, check it out.
Airu sent me a birthday text
from all the way in London
not too long ago.
[AIRU]
Congratulations, Mizuho!
Happy Birthday!
[SHUGO]
That's Airu.
Ever the jet-setter.
[MIZUHO]
It's nice.
Seeing everyone doing so well.
I miss us all being together.
It's been way too long.

Yeah, it really has.

It's really such a shame,

because of that foul virus.
On the bright side
everyone seems to have
calmed down about it.

Yeah.

-Quick Q!
You want this brought
to the Manga Research Club?
That's right!
I so appreciate you guys
helping me out with this stuff.
Hey four-eyes
and-fancy-earring boy,
these too.
Oh, goodness,

to seeing your kimono cosplay.

Hey, what's that for?
Um?
[MIZUHO]
Hey.
I made these cards

Ah?
I can save one
from the garbage can.
Whoa, wait,
you can't be serious,
not when just last year
you totally made fun of me
and insisted that no one
would ever buy these
"nerdy cards" of mine!
What's this a fairy cat?
[MIZUHO]
It's clearly a sorcerer.
She's a highschooler
who was reincarnated
to another world.
While summoning,
she uses her Cat Thunder,
so she causes loads of damage
and if she evolves
to the Grand Class,
she can fully restore her MP.
She's a popular sorcerer
who's mastered summoning magic!
Reincarnation
and summoning magic?
[MIZUHO] I know
it may be a little too much
for you to handle.
I can handle this much.
I think it's kind of cute.

Why do you ask?
Wellno reason.

That said,
we're only in high school
for so long

Hey, Shin.

as a childhood friend
but like, as a woman.

Hey, Kashiwagi.
I was hoping I could get
your answer to my question.

Right.

Sorry
I can't go out with you,
Akiyama.

There's a girl

I had no idea you could even
make a face like that.
It's all right.
Guess, I'll have to let you go.
