IKEBUKURO STATION

00:16.537 --> 00:17.955
<i>There's someone I want to see.</i>

00:25.880 --> 00:29.425
<i>I'm Taiki Inomata, a first-year student
at Eimei Private High School.</i>

00:31.427 --> 00:34.805
<i>I fell in love with Chinatsu Senpai,
who's in the grade above me.</i>

00:36.348 --> 00:39.143
She'll be living with us
starting this spring.

00:39.727 --> 00:41.020
Thanks for having me.

00:42.104 --> 00:45.149
I told Taiki that I like him.

00:45.858 --> 00:49.028
I can't be with you.

00:49.612 --> 00:52.156
A tracksuit!
I wanted to go buy a tracksuit!

00:52.239 --> 00:53.783
<i>It's a date!</i>

00:54.366 --> 00:57.995
<i>It's also my chance
to tell her how I feel.</i>

00:58.078 --> 01:01.373
<i>In front of the flower bed.</i>

01:24.480 --> 01:28.651
BLUE BOX SEASON 2

SHINJUKU STATION

02:52.568 --> 02:55.571
EPISODE 26
DÉJÀ VU

03:11.879 --> 03:16.508
Would it be in the badminton section
or the apparel section?

03:20.220 --> 03:22.264
Come on, Taiki.
Let's go to the second floor.

03:22.348 --> 03:23.515
Okay.

03:28.604 --> 03:33.317
<i>This is the first time
that I was the one who invited her out.</i>

03:33.400 --> 03:36.779
<i>That makes this our first real date.</i>

03:37.404 --> 03:39.865
Do you want to go somewhere together
on our next day off?

03:39.949 --> 03:43.786
There's this café I'd like to check out.
Can we go there too?

03:43.869 --> 03:45.788
<i>A café!</i>

03:47.373 --> 03:49.291
<i>There are so many different sports.</i>

03:50.876 --> 03:54.046
<i>So many different kinds of sportswear!</i>

04:04.348 --> 04:07.393
<i>Crap, I'm getting carried away.</i>

04:07.476 --> 04:08.560
Taiki.

04:09.061 --> 04:11.313
SQUID

04:11.397 --> 04:12.982
What about this one?

04:15.442 --> 04:16.986
Are you being serious?

04:17.069 --> 04:18.320
Totally serious.

04:18.404 --> 04:21.115
- Would you wear it?
- Nope.

04:21.198 --> 04:23.367
Then why would you think <i>I</i> would?!

04:24.702 --> 04:25.953
It was worth a shot.

04:27.329 --> 04:29.373
BIG CATCH

04:31.333 --> 04:33.627
<i>I love how comfortable this feels!</i>

04:34.545 --> 04:35.379
Ta-da!

04:35.462 --> 04:36.422
CERTAIN VICTORY

04:37.715 --> 04:38.590
Ta-da!

04:38.674 --> 04:39.508
NICE TO MEOW YA!

04:41.719 --> 04:44.638
STRETCH

04:44.722 --> 04:46.974
Then what about this?

04:49.018 --> 04:50.394
Wait, I think I like this one.

04:52.229 --> 04:53.856
It looks cool.

04:56.066 --> 04:59.403
It comes in a bigger size
if you want to be safe.

05:03.073 --> 05:04.575
I'll take this one.

05:04.658 --> 05:07.328
Tracksuits are cool, aren't they?

05:08.245 --> 05:10.581
I think I might buy a T-shirt too.

05:11.123 --> 05:12.791
I'm gonna go try it on.

05:12.875 --> 05:13.709
Okay.

05:18.797 --> 05:22.718
<i>Is it okay for me to wait
right outside the fitting room?</i>

05:22.801 --> 05:26.305
<i>But she might come out to show me
once she puts it on.</i>

05:26.847 --> 05:29.350
<i>So I should stay close just in case.</i>

05:35.230 --> 05:37.024
<i>The size is perfect.</i>

05:38.233 --> 05:39.860
<i>I'll ask Taiki what he thinks.</i>

05:40.861 --> 05:41.862
Oh?

05:41.945 --> 05:44.114
Yo, Inomata!

05:44.698 --> 05:45.991
Yokomura...

05:46.075 --> 05:47.409
Funny running into you here.

05:47.493 --> 05:49.119
Are you here to buy volleyball gear?

05:51.455 --> 05:53.373
Women's shoes?

05:54.792 --> 05:56.418
Say no more.

05:56.502 --> 05:59.213
I never would've thought. Props, man.

05:59.296 --> 06:00.214
Good luck, fam.

06:00.297 --> 06:01.131
No, it's not...

06:01.799 --> 06:04.176
I'm gonna get out of your hair,
and I won't tell anyone.

06:04.259 --> 06:05.177
Thanks.

06:05.260 --> 06:08.138
I just want to confirm one thing.

06:08.764 --> 06:09.890
Is it Chono?

06:11.850 --> 06:12.893
What?

06:13.477 --> 06:15.646
Sorry, never mind. It's not cool to pry.

06:15.729 --> 06:16.605
Later, man.

06:17.981 --> 06:20.400
<i>So that's what people think?</i>

06:21.568 --> 06:23.153
<i>I mean, we were close.</i>

06:38.252 --> 06:39.336
<i>She's not wearing it.</i>

06:40.087 --> 06:41.130
How was it?

06:41.213 --> 06:43.966
It was a little too big.

06:44.466 --> 06:46.051
I see.

06:46.135 --> 06:48.804
I think I'll come back some other time.

06:48.887 --> 06:51.140
Okay. I'll go pay for this, then.

06:51.974 --> 06:53.892
I'm dying to go to that café.

06:54.810 --> 06:55.644
Yeah.

07:18.584 --> 07:19.960
It's close to here, right?

07:20.043 --> 07:23.797
Yeah. I went with Nagisa before.

07:23.881 --> 07:25.799
<i>So it's somewhere she's been before.</i>

07:26.467 --> 07:30.554
They had the best apple pie I've ever had.

07:31.305 --> 07:33.307
I want you to try it.

07:35.392 --> 07:38.353
In that case,
there's some food I'd like you to try too.

07:38.437 --> 07:39.813
We can do that next time.

07:41.315 --> 07:42.316
I'd like that.

07:50.866 --> 07:52.326
Welcome.

07:53.827 --> 07:54.703
Table for two--

07:57.039 --> 07:58.081
You're here by yourself?

07:58.165 --> 08:00.292
You could actually join us if you'd like.

08:00.375 --> 08:01.919
Matsuoka?

08:04.046 --> 08:05.589
Natsu!

08:08.884 --> 08:11.428
Meeting in a place like this,
it must be fate.

08:11.512 --> 08:12.721
This is stupid.

08:12.804 --> 08:16.725
Sit here, Natsu.
I mean, every other seat is taken, anyway.

08:17.309 --> 08:18.310
<i>What?</i>

08:20.479 --> 08:21.313
Aren't you that fan?

08:21.396 --> 08:24.983
It's Inomata.
I've been here the whole time!

08:26.360 --> 08:29.613
Wait, why are the two of you together?

08:33.742 --> 08:35.244
Not cool, Natsu.

08:35.327 --> 08:39.331
You shouldn't drag your fan here
just because you can't go to a café alone.

08:39.414 --> 08:41.375
I can go to cafes by myself just fine.

08:41.458 --> 08:43.418
Anyway, take a seat.

08:48.298 --> 08:49.883
<i>You know, at first,</i>

08:50.926 --> 08:53.470
<i>I thought this guy
was just a terrible person.</i>

08:53.554 --> 08:54.888
I need to use the restroom.

08:54.972 --> 08:58.392
<i>But maybe he's just a ditz
who can't read the room.</i>

09:04.815 --> 09:07.693
Hey, fanboy, now's your chance.

09:08.193 --> 09:09.027
What?

09:15.742 --> 09:17.661
<i>Nope.</i>

09:17.744 --> 09:22.165
<i>He really is the worst!</i>

09:25.085 --> 09:27.170
Sorry, do you not understand English?

09:27.754 --> 09:30.924
I was asking you nicely to leave.

09:31.008 --> 09:33.093
<i>Nicely? Pretty sure
that was the imperative form!</i>

09:34.636 --> 09:36.847
That's what I should be saying to you.

09:36.930 --> 09:41.101
I made plans to spend the day alone
with Chinatsu Senpai.

09:41.184 --> 09:43.312
- You're the one intruding--
- I'm back.

09:45.314 --> 09:47.024
Welcome back, Natsu.

09:47.107 --> 09:51.612
<i>Chinatsu Senpai, you have to see
through this guy's fake smile!</i>

09:51.695 --> 09:54.031
You've got that shady look
on your face again.

09:54.114 --> 09:55.365
That's so mean.

09:55.449 --> 09:57.367
<i>She already knows?!</i>

09:57.451 --> 09:58.785
What do you want to order, Natsu?

09:58.869 --> 10:00.162
Apple pie and tea.

10:00.245 --> 10:02.664
Right, you're a tea person.

10:02.748 --> 10:04.666
You're always drinking tea in class.

10:04.750 --> 10:06.918
Even I knew that!

10:07.002 --> 10:08.211
Excuse me!

10:08.295 --> 10:09.546
What are you ordering?

10:09.630 --> 10:10.672
I'll have...

10:11.340 --> 10:12.591
Protein?

10:12.674 --> 10:14.176
<i>The guy's making digs at me!</i>

10:15.260 --> 10:18.305
I'll also get the apple pie and tea
Chinatsu Senpai recommende--

10:18.388 --> 10:22.517
This reminds me
of that time in middle school.

10:22.601 --> 10:23.977
<i>Let me talk!</i>

10:24.061 --> 10:27.230
The whole basketball team
went to a café after practice.

10:27.314 --> 10:28.857
Are you ready to order?

10:28.940 --> 10:32.361
Could we get two of each of these, please?

10:32.444 --> 10:34.029
Of course.

10:34.112 --> 10:35.822
That brings back memories!

10:35.906 --> 10:38.200
We wanted to go somewhere fancy.

10:38.283 --> 10:39.368
We did, didn't we?

10:40.160 --> 10:43.372
Taiki, you know that cafe in Nichome?

10:43.955 --> 10:44.790
Oh, that one--

10:44.873 --> 10:48.126
It was pretty pricey
for a middle schooler's budget.

10:48.710 --> 10:51.755
Nagisa ordered an espresso
to try to look cool.

10:52.798 --> 10:54.508
No, that was Yumeka.

10:58.720 --> 10:59.721
<i>What was that?</i>

10:59.805 --> 11:03.767
Was it? Oh, but then there was
that whole thing on our way home...

11:03.850 --> 11:05.268
<i>Who's Yumeka?</i>

11:08.355 --> 11:09.981
Here is your order.

11:25.122 --> 11:28.291
<i>The harmony between the crispy crust
and the sweet apples!</i>

11:32.879 --> 11:34.214
Anyway...

11:36.716 --> 11:38.427
It's so good.

11:56.736 --> 11:58.071
Now, then...

11:59.489 --> 12:00.574
Where shall we go next?

12:02.284 --> 12:06.788
- Hey!
- Now that we've eaten, what about bowling?

12:08.915 --> 12:11.793
Sorry, I forgot something in the café.
I'll be right back.

12:15.297 --> 12:17.799
<i>We finally got some time alone together...</i>

12:30.228 --> 12:31.062
Sorry.

12:31.146 --> 12:33.106
<i>He's definitely doing that on purpose.</i>

12:33.190 --> 12:34.566
Listen.

12:35.817 --> 12:38.320
Do you really have time for romance?

12:45.035 --> 12:49.414
Didn't you
just lose to Haryu the other day?

12:49.498 --> 12:50.832
And it wasn't just to him.

12:51.416 --> 12:53.084
Plus, it doesn't look to me

12:53.168 --> 12:56.838
like you're much better
than your other teammates.

12:57.422 --> 13:00.509
Me, though, I'm super good at basketball,

13:00.592 --> 13:03.053
and it's easy for me
to balance sports and romance.

13:05.388 --> 13:06.806
I can manage both.

13:09.809 --> 13:11.061
Really?

13:16.441 --> 13:17.817
Sorry to keep you waiting!

13:18.318 --> 13:19.569
Not at all.

13:23.156 --> 13:25.867
<i>He hit me where it hurts.</i>

13:25.951 --> 13:27.702
<i>I can feel myself sweating.</i>

13:28.286 --> 13:31.831
<i>I've already decided
I wouldn't let unfounded fears</i>

13:32.457 --> 13:34.167
<i>hold me back anymore.</i>

13:34.668 --> 13:36.586
Anyway, Matsuoka...

13:36.670 --> 13:38.088
Hold on, I just got a text.

13:39.881 --> 13:41.633
This is perfect!

13:41.716 --> 13:46.221
Some people I know from Yusei University
are playing basketball right now.

13:46.304 --> 13:47.597
Let's go join them, Natsu!

13:48.181 --> 13:49.182
What?

13:52.310 --> 13:55.063
Yusei University
has a strong basketball team,

13:55.146 --> 13:56.856
so you could learn a lot.

13:57.482 --> 13:58.858
But...

14:00.652 --> 14:03.530
They told me to bring anyone.

14:04.948 --> 14:06.491
You should go!

14:09.327 --> 14:12.664
You'll learn a lot
practicing with college students!

14:13.999 --> 14:16.001
Don't worry about me!

14:16.585 --> 14:19.754
Besides, I'm gonna go home
and get some practice in too!

14:23.341 --> 14:24.718
You heard the guy.

14:24.801 --> 14:26.261
Come on, let's go!

14:27.554 --> 14:29.973
- Let's go.
- But...

14:30.056 --> 14:31.683
This way.

14:33.184 --> 14:34.477
Later!

14:35.604 --> 14:37.480
I didn't do it for you!

14:57.375 --> 15:00.211
<i>I wanted to keep hanging out with her,</i>

15:03.798 --> 15:06.635
<i>but I want to support her
in basketball too.</i>

15:09.137 --> 15:11.514
<i>And me butting heads with that Matsu guy...</i>

15:16.603 --> 15:18.980
<i>won't do her any good.</i>

15:45.882 --> 15:48.093
I thought you got on that train.

15:48.593 --> 15:50.095
I went to the bathroom.

15:51.972 --> 15:54.599
What about that basketball practice?

15:57.811 --> 16:01.356
After thinking it over, I realized
I didn't have a change of clothes.

16:08.571 --> 16:10.407
Then let's go home together!

16:14.494 --> 16:15.745
<i>I'm so happy.</i>

16:16.413 --> 16:18.248
<i>Happy that she came back.</i>

16:18.748 --> 16:20.583
<i>Happy we get to go home together.</i>

16:21.835 --> 16:25.922
<i>But as happy as I am,
there's a lot that I have to do.</i>

16:26.840 --> 16:28.633
Nagisa Senpai.

16:29.426 --> 16:31.803
I found this picture while cleaning.

16:31.886 --> 16:33.888
Who's the person wearing number four?

16:33.972 --> 16:35.557
Oh, her?

16:36.474 --> 16:37.892
Yumeka Kido.

16:41.771 --> 16:44.607
The apple pie was good, wasn't it?

16:44.691 --> 16:46.317
Best I've ever had!

16:47.444 --> 16:48.778
I'm glad to hear that.

16:48.862 --> 16:50.822
The day went by so fast.

16:51.573 --> 16:53.408
It did, didn't it?

16:53.908 --> 16:56.327
NEXT STOP - OMOTESANDO

16:57.954 --> 16:59.330
Chinatsu Senpai.

16:59.414 --> 17:02.584
What do you think
about staying out a little longer?

17:09.674 --> 17:13.720
<i>I know a perfect spot
for this time of day.</i>

17:27.442 --> 17:28.943
It's beautiful.

17:29.652 --> 17:31.613
We came at a good time.

17:32.864 --> 17:36.117
Yeah, it's like time is in slow motion.

17:38.119 --> 17:39.871
<i>I wish time would stop!</i>

17:42.707 --> 17:44.542
It really is beautiful.

17:44.626 --> 17:45.919
It sure is.

17:52.675 --> 17:54.135
But I'm a little surprised.

17:54.219 --> 17:55.136
What?

17:55.220 --> 17:58.515
I didn't think
you would know about spots like this.

17:59.724 --> 18:00.975
I mean...

18:01.059 --> 18:03.061
HIGH SCHOOLER - DATE - NIGHT VIEW

18:03.144 --> 18:03.978
OUTING

18:04.062 --> 18:06.064
<i>I did tons of research
after we made plans!</i>

18:06.147 --> 18:08.274
- Don't tell me...
- Yes?

18:09.567 --> 18:10.860
You came here with another girl?

18:10.944 --> 18:13.238
Of course not!

18:13.321 --> 18:15.824
I mean, this is my first time here,

18:15.907 --> 18:18.743
and I was worried
we'd get lost on the way here.

18:26.167 --> 18:28.503
This is my first time here too.

18:29.921 --> 18:34.592
Until today, I thought
that hanging out was like slacking off.

18:36.928 --> 18:38.263
<i>Who is Yumeka?</i>

18:38.346 --> 18:41.766
I guess you wouldn't know
if you joined Eimei in high school.

18:43.601 --> 18:47.272
What? You can't even do that?

18:47.355 --> 18:49.774
You wouldn't know
about Yumeka's Spartan training

18:49.858 --> 18:51.025
and her sarcastic attitude!

18:52.610 --> 18:54.529
But she was a genius.

18:55.446 --> 18:57.240
<i>She and Chinatsu had great chemistry</i>

18:57.323 --> 18:59.659
<i>since they'd been playing together
from a young age.</i>

18:59.742 --> 19:00.743
AWARD

19:01.369 --> 19:02.620
I see.

19:02.704 --> 19:03.538
But...

19:03.621 --> 19:06.166
Yeah, she quit in middle school.

19:07.250 --> 19:08.918
<i>Without saying a word.</i>

19:09.961 --> 19:12.422
She quit our school and basketball too.

19:23.183 --> 19:24.726
Are you cold?

19:24.809 --> 19:26.436
No, I'm fine.

19:28.897 --> 19:30.356
Here, put this on.

19:30.940 --> 19:34.068
The tracksuit I just bought
should help block the wind.

19:34.777 --> 19:37.238
I should also have
some hand warmers somewhere.

19:37.322 --> 19:39.073
Mom made me bring them.

19:39.157 --> 19:42.660
They should be in this pocket...

19:47.290 --> 19:48.708
What is it?

19:51.920 --> 19:54.088
It just felt like déjà vu.

19:57.467 --> 20:00.762
Hey! Use this if you like!

20:00.845 --> 20:02.347
It's just been washed!

20:03.973 --> 20:06.684
And... here's some hot tea.

20:06.768 --> 20:09.312
This thermos is great
at keeping things warm.

20:09.395 --> 20:11.898
Here are some gloves, and a pocket heater!

20:12.482 --> 20:14.150
It gets warm if you shake...

20:17.487 --> 20:19.822
Looking back, it must've been creepy.

20:19.906 --> 20:23.952
Suddenly having this underclassman
you don't know pushing his scarf on you.

20:24.035 --> 20:25.495
Honestly, I was startled.

20:25.578 --> 20:26.412
What?

20:29.916 --> 20:32.168
But I didn't find it creepy.

20:33.211 --> 20:37.215
Because even if I had never talked
to you before, I saw you every morning.

20:42.470 --> 20:44.931
I already knew you must be

20:45.014 --> 20:49.143
a really honest and hardworking person
with integrity.

20:58.486 --> 21:00.989
What will you bring me next?

21:10.373 --> 21:11.499
Just kidding.

21:17.880 --> 21:19.716
I don't have anything to give you,

21:19.799 --> 21:21.092
but...

21:22.927 --> 21:25.221
there's something I want to tell you.

21:27.932 --> 21:29.309
Natsu?

21:38.067 --> 21:39.485
Yumeka.

21:40.570 --> 21:42.363
<i>Wait, that name came up before.</i>

21:43.489 --> 21:44.991
What?

21:45.074 --> 21:47.994
Is this for real?

21:48.661 --> 21:50.997
You got a boyfriend too?

21:51.080 --> 21:53.750
No, I'm not her boyfriend.

21:55.168 --> 21:56.252
I see.

21:57.837 --> 22:00.757
The only thing you ever cared about
was basketball.

22:00.840 --> 22:03.593
To think that Natsu is dating.

22:08.556 --> 22:09.974
So I guess...

22:12.143 --> 22:14.979
you must have
given up on basketball, then.

23:48.948 --> 23:53.953
