Love Strikes! (2011) s01e07 Episode Script

For the first time in my life I got a girlfriend.
I'm back.
Welcome, Fuji-Kun.
Curry?
The dish you love, Chicken Curry.
My life changed drastically.
Everyday we'd go to each other's places
and stay the night
and we're planning to move together soon.
Of course we're having wild sex
Everyday I'm exploring her body
We just did it yesterday.
Like Curry, it tastes better on the second day.
That lifestyle isn't here yet.
One month has passed since that incident.
We keep exchanging messages but because she's
busy with her job we haven't met once after.
But
I can see an effect.
(Screen: "I'm thinking about you, too")
There's an effect.
(Screen: "I want to meet you soon")
I feel like the next time we meet, definitely
something's gonna happen.
I want to do it. I want to do it, Itsuka.
Not just sleep here, at least hug me like this
Hello.
Fuji? Sorry I'm calling while you're masturbating but
Sumi-San.
Tomorrow you're free anyways, aren't you.
A manga writer is djing tomorrow in Shimokitazawa.
You like manga, don't you?
Come.
I dunno why but since then Sumi-San started
calling me frequently.
He's a freelance editor.
There's someone I want to introduce you too.
Yes.
-See ya.
Right?
Pain in the ass.
I got it, I'll be there.
Hello, Fuji-Kun.
Itsuka-Chan?
"Swimming"
What's up?
Aren't you busy at the job?
Well I am but, there's something
I wanted to give you.
What is it?
Pears. My parents sent them to me.
So many.
I received so many so I thought
you'd like some too?
Thanks.
You called me just for that?
What shall we do? You wanna come
over to my place right quick?
Hey Nagashima!
You need something from the convenience store?
No I'm good thanks.
Sorry.
We're going to a shooting in Izu and
it'll be done in one day but as we're already
there we decided to go camping one night.
Oh, is that so?
But I haven't forgotten our promise.
Your boyfriend, eh?
He's not!
He's not my boyfriend.
"Not my boyfriend"
It's not like we're together but
it just dawned on me that
compared to other guys there's
few things I have to offer.
Even though I'm trying much harder than
normal guys there's still nothing
For 30 years not once
somebody fell for me.
"I'm done with it want to die
Still texting all the time with Ituska
but we never meet then today
she finally called me and told me she'd
go with the guys from work"
Fujimoto, take a shit and go to sleep you scum.
Hayashidaaaaa
Really a borderline guy like me is not
supposed to wish for a girlfriend I think.
I'm inferior to other guys but not making any
effort. I feel like an ant longing to be loved.
The worst scum, trash, lower than a cockroach.
Shut the fuck up!
Then hurry up and die!
Should I kill you over the phone?
Wasn't there some shit boring flick like that?
Don't talk bad about Ike the director.
The bad one's Akimoto Yasuishi.
Listen man
stop whining and just go on to the next.
If you're so mad about Itsuka hanging
out with other guys
why don't you just hang out with
another girl yourself?
What?
You're not in contact with Aki?
Fujimoto, if you want that trauma to go away,
the only one who can do so is yourself.
If you don't, nothing's ever gonna change.
Bye.
Aki, here.
We haven't spoken in so long but
you remembered me!
Wait is that really you?
Sorry, sorry.
Sorry for calling you so suddenly.
Thanks for coming.
And you're different today.
Been a while.
I haven't been going out so much recently..
Wow, I don't remember Aki being this pretty.
And so hot!
Nice vibe.
Wait, Miki Nakatani is being played.
Is that it?
Wait, what's this song?
It's "the front circus", Kyoji produced 10 years ago.
That's it! Haven't heard this in so long.
What's this, Fuji?
You brought your girlfriend?
No no, this is Sumi-San.
I'm the president of the "Yukio's graduation
from Virginity"-Club, Sumida. Nice to meet you.
That's uncool man.
Oh please, let me join your club, too.
She's riding with it.
She seems way more useful to lose your
virginity than Itsuka-Chan.
No no, wrong.
There was someone you wanted to introduce us to?
Well..
He's somewhere around here.
I'll go look for him.
Who's that?
Well a friend so to speak.
Who's that DJ again?
That's Hisashi Eguchi, the maker of "Stop! Hibari-Kun"
Hibari-Kun?
Let's go to the front!
He's real!
So cute.
Why is she so kind to me?
Thinking back, it was her mail that started
this Moteki.
That time we went to a club.
If at that time i hadn't tripped
we might be a couple right now?
What's she feeling for me?
Finally he called me but then this?
It's not just the two of us?
Being introduced to friends and stuff, starting
from that point again, what a pain
I was so happy when I received
his call after all this time.
But he hasn't changed at all.
Basically the passive type.
I do like his looks but
And how does he feel about me anyway?
Master
Where have you been?
Fuji.
Omu-Sensei
Of "Kyabachu"?
For real?!
Onosaka Omu-Sensei?
Awesome! I'm so happy!
Why are you here? Through XN?
So cool!
I've been reading since the first episode
This is the anime writer Onosaka Omu!
Omu.
He's the one who's drawing "Ike Kyabakura
Middle Schooler" for Shonen Magazine.
He's awesome!
The main character is, during the day,
a regular student at an all-girls middle school
At night, she's the most popular girl
at a cabaret club.
The mix of school and night world
makes a top notch story.
And now he's working from the same place.
Oh really? That's so awesome.
Really, that guy, he's really the best
That's great. You know, I'm really bad at
painting and drawing.
So I really respect anyone who lives
off of drawing manga.
You should see him drawing live once.
It's phenomenal.
See, just the raw sketches are already so beautiful.
I want to see that.
If that's so, why don't you come to
the office for fun once. Right, Omu?
I don't care.
For real? Can I come, too?
Tomorrow's sunday right?
Tomorrow's fine, eh? Let's meet then.
That's so cool.
Tomorrow what time will it be?
So this is what it's about.
No no Kyaba-Chu is really interesting, you know.
Read it thoroughly before meeting with Omu-Sensei.
Are you really reading it, now?
Not reading at all.
If you don't care, why did you come here at all?
You're lucky, right?
He's the guy whose work you've been
aspiring, right?
Try to become friends, there might be
something in it for you too!
What's up?
I see. Women want to get close to guys
that have money and talent, after all.
Whatever they may look like.
You're not even a fan for chrissakes.
Recently Omu-Kun's work hasn't been
going well, see.
Is that so? But Kyaba-Chu sales are still good, right?
Yeah but the numbers are dropping
and they're overall unstable.
That's why you should cheer him up a bit.
Yes.
Plus he seems to like you, Aki.
Really? You think I'm his type?
Yeah, most definitely.
You should even marry him.
He's a rich guy, you know?
Not spending his money at all.
He's a millionaire.
Millionaire? -Really?
Sweet!
A millionaire
Omu-Kun
Coming in
Hello!
Coming in
So messy
Where is he?
Omu-Kun?
What happened?
My great assistants
just told me
they all want to quit because
the job is too hard.
And I can't draw anymore.
And I'm late.
It's all my fault.
Everybody hates me.
Because I'm a failure as a person nobody
wants to buy my books anymore.
I don't deserve to live.
Hello.
It's fine, it's fine.
Well we better get
going?
Well if you don't mind I could
give you a hand.
Really?
Yes, I can cook dinner.
First eat to get your spirits back.
What would you like? There's almost
nothing I can't cook.
Curry.
Got it. You go ahead and concentrate
on your work, please.
Lucky, right, Omu?
Hospitalized?
Yeah, he had to be saved half a year ago.
See, he can't communicate with people like this.
I can't just stand and look.
That's why Omu needs someone to open up his heart.
Someone like Aki.
Through her presence he's soothed
and his drawings get even better.
So good.
Really delicious, Aki.
Good.
-Really? I'm glad.
Omu-Sensei, is it to your liking?
You know they say
Good at curry - good in bed.
In other words, your sex seems good.
Well, how would you know?
Sumi-San, if we don't talk in that direction
you're not satisfied, are you?
Alright, I go back to my place and work.
Now?
Omu, I call you tomorrow.
Good job.
Ok so shall I make coffee?
Black coffee is fine by you, Omu-Sensei?
Take your time.
What in the world this?
Nobody's thanking me for making this.
Of course my curry is delicious!
How long do you think I studied to
create this man-eater curry.
Thanks for the delicious meal! is what you could say.
Specially Omu-Sensei.
Can't even say "Good".
However rich and talented a guy, if he's
got no social skill, I just can't stand him.
To be honest, I don't like that manga, either.
Sorry, let me do the dishes.
No, don't worry about it.
It's fine, you've been working the hardest today.
Relax a bit.
But today I just wanted to be with Fujimoto-Kun
and that's what I came for so it's fine.
Listen make coffee
go talk to Omu-Sensei.
What?
It seems he took a liking in you.
And you want to make friends
with him too, don't you?
What's he saying?
Is he thinking I'm after Omu-Sensei?
Oh, she's cute!
Your girl?
That's not it.
She keeps sending these pictures.
What's with this behaviour?
No, could he?
While I was away did he start to get popular?
Well at least
it's nice how Omu-Sensei
cheered up little bit, right?
What's this?
Why is she so down?
It started after she saw that mail
in the kitchen.
Why?
Is it bugging her?
That would mean
Could she be
Could it be?
But it's not
Listen
concerning that mail from before
it's not like you think.
That wasn't my girlfriend.
What are you trying to say?
You think that mail is bugging me?
Idiotic.
If it's nothing like that, forget about it.
Yeah it's nothing like that.
What was I talking?
Don't jump to conclusions.
About what?
That girl who's not your girlfriend
who's that?
That girl from the pic that was sent to you.
That's a friend?
You love her.
What?
Though you're saying she's just a friend
you really want her to be your girlfriend, right?
Nothing like that. It's not like there was
anyone I
See, I don't deserve to even be in love.
I'm not rich and talented as guys like Omu.
Also that's why I never approached you
Man, I hate this. I hate this so much.
Why do I have to say these things.
To the station.
It's ok, isn't it?
What's this?
Why this sudden turn of events?
I don't get it at all.
I have to go back to work tomorrow again.
I don't feel like going.
But I have late shift tomorrow.
I'm jealous. I've got to leave my place at 7am.
That's hard.
What's with this artificial conversation?
So sorry.
It's ok.
Wait, what did you just say?
"So sorry" - what are you trying to say?
In other words, if you wouldn't have
to get up early tomorrow
or if tomorrow wasn't monday, you
wanted me to take you out somewhere?
Where, where, where do you want me to take you?
So that's my direction.
Ah yes.
When's gonna be the next time?
When we meet again?!
Alright then
Let's have some good food somewhere.
So you wanna come to my place then for dinner?
That sounds nice!
Alright, then let me make something.
I'll take your word for it.
-I'll do.
Next time it's just the two of us.
See you.
Bye bye.
I have no idea how it came
to be this way but
this is already
a fact.
Next time we meet, we'll definitely do it!
Aki-Chan.
You're crying so hard.
What happened to you?
You're crying.
Your lips
3 days later
Ok so it's decided. Saturday this weekend.
I'm not gonna make you drunk and have
my way with you or anything so, no worries.
This saturday we'll meet again.
We kept sending each other naughty messages.
(On Screen: My anus is still virginal so treat it gently)
You're so passive!
Wear your lucky underwear.
I think I'm gonna do the same.
That vamp! Has she taken special courses
in how to make a guy happy?
Ah, calm down.
On saturday I'll let you go wild as much as you want.
Hello, Fuji?
Have you seen it?
This week's Kyaba-Chu
No, I'm looking at it right now. What's this?
That new character, say what you want,
that's Aki, isn't it?
So Omu liked her after all.
Thanks Fuji.
No need to thank me.
Now I also wanted to ask you for a favor.
Could you ask Aki
if she could come again, just on weekends.
To prepare dinner, clean up and such.
Of course she gets paid.
Yeah I'll do it.
You alright with it?
Yeah, it's only weekends anyway, right?
Plus I wanted to save up some money myself.
In fact this comes at the right time.
I see.
Starting when? Next week?
He wants you to be there
already this weekend, it seems.
This weekend?
Fujimoto-Kun you're fine with that?
Yeah you know, we find another chance to
have dinner together.
For Omu-Sensei's sake
I, as a fan, I want him to
draw good stuff, too, see?
I see.
Got it.
Bye.
Good day.
For a good start
I shall do my best.
So I'll start doing the cleaning.
Go ahead and concentrate on your work.
Aki was on my mind but
there was nothing to do but sleep.
Hello?
Fuji-kun?
Itsuka-Chan?
Were you asleep? Sorry.
No, don't worry.
What's up?
Well err
I thought I'd bring you some
souvenirs from the trip.
You know I
I wanted to see you, you know?
I see.
To me Itsuka is still
Fuji, hello? You there?
Itsuka
What is it?
I
Excuse us but, could we help out, too?
I'm a big fan and reading from the start
may I ask for your autograph?
That's too fast.
You should do that later on.
Excuse me. My name is Nakashiba Itsuka
This is some presents from Izu.
Please take them.
Is this your wife? So pretty.
You really fit well together!
At least we're here.
But now what's the situation?
Somehow this apprehension isn't good.
