1. "...yeah, that was."
2. "Was that a little too much?"
3. "Satsuki-san..."
4. However, I realised; if I say that to satsuki,
5. I should be able to defeat her easily.
6. I feel that if satsuki-san knew her opponent was holding back,
7. She'd be furious.
8. "That..."
9. I used everything in my power to grasp victory.
10. If I had gone easy on her, would she really have been happy with that?
Laster…Laster…
1. "...but being strict is what makes satsuki-san herself, though."
2. "Un-doubtedly."
3. "Especially if that person is mai."
4. "Oh, thank you."
5. "I wish she was more care-free with how she lives her life."
6. "I am none other than oozuka mai, the one who will be your life partner."
7. "Well, natura-lly."
8. "......"
9. "Yum..."
10. "That's not happe-ning!"
11. "You're amazing, you know?"
12. "Hey, mai."
13. "You look at things differently compared to others."
14. "Yeah?"
Laster…Laster…
1. "It's ironic, really."
2. "Since it was her who taught me the meaning of freedom."
3. "Yeah."
4. "Honestly... How did she become so fixated on me..."
5. "In elementary school?"
6. "What do you mean...?"
7. "It was a long time ago."
8. "Back when we had only just met."
9. "I don't know,"
10. "But I could ask you the same question."
11. Of course she's being flirty while we're on break...
12. "Hmph..."
13. "Absolutely, and I will continue to, even if a century were to pass."
14. "There you go again..."
15. "That's because you and I were destined to be."
1. "Huh?"
2. "Perhaps we should give her some space for now."
3. "What do you mean "Give her space"?"
4. "Yeah, she is."
5. "Isn't satsuki-san taking an awfully long time?"
6. "............"
7. "No way."
8. "I believe it's better to let her be-"
9. "I'll go check on her."
1. "That's true But..."
2. "But you also fell off because of me."
3. "When I ran off to the rooftop."
4. "How you came for me"
5. "Just... Just like"
6. "It still made me happy."
7. "I see."
8. "I will respect your decision, then."
9. It's not like my words
10. Will reach her anyway.
1. "Um... Satsuki-san?"
2. "Satsuki-san."
3. "It's not going too well."
4. "Mai really is something."
5. "I was just thinking about what to do for the next round."
6. "I'll be right back."
7. "Amaori."
8. "I can tell that you gave it your all"
9. "...yeah."
10. "From how much you've improved."
11. "If only I had a little more time..."
12. "But I really did try my best."
13. "I'm sorry."
14. "I didn't mean to worry you."
1. "That's..."
2. "...but I still can't defeat mai."
3. "I worked, studied, and on top of that, practiced for the match."
4. "Is that so..."
5. "...eh?"
6. "Even during exams, I worked part-time."
7. "Yeah, I see..."
8. "So those eye bags..."
9. "But I'd promised to help my mom out with the money when I started high school."
10. "The manager said it was fine for me to take time off."
11. "You know, satsuki-san."
12. "You're truly amazing."
13. "Let alone working, I could barely study for the exams."
14. "Compared to someone like me, satsuki-san is on a completely different level."
15. "And I didn't want to go back on my word."
1. "That's not true..."
2. "But I'm sure that everything I did"
3. "Was just an excuse to avoid facing reality."
4. "Don't say it like that."
5. "Then I will have nothing left."
6. "Only to lose in utter defeat,"
7. "If I put everything on the line and face off against mai,"
8. "No, satsuki-san."
9. "Satsuki-san..."
1. "I'm having fun."
2. I was a fool.
3. I thought that as long as I won, they would make up and be friends again.
4. But that's not how it works.
1. Even if we continued the match and I were to win,
2. Satsuki-san will never see herself as mai's equal again.
3. "Satsuki-san..."
4. And they can no longer be friends.
1. "You can't give up just yet, satsuki-san."
2. The match has already begun and here I am at the door.
3. Everything is always "Too late".
4. "...why not?"
5. "You might catch up to her."
6. "One more match might make a difference,"
7. The only thing we can change is what happens next.
8. I can't change my past as a middle school recluse
9. "Even if you don't win today, there's always tomorrow."
10. "That's what I've thought this entire time"
11. But I still made my high school debut and got to meet satsuki-san.
12. "But my oppo- nent..."
1. "I don't want you to give up, satsuki-san!"
2. "It's mai, I know!"
3. "But still, you can't give up!"
4. "And prove that you're better than her?"
5. "Don't you want to beat mai"
6. This is beyond my own self-interest,
7. It's just a simple wish.
8. "No, it isn't! Also you're the one who got me involved in the first place!"
9. "I'm telling you it's too late..."
10. "So don't give up!"
11. "I want to see you beat mai with my own eyes, satsuki-san!"
12. "There's nothing I wanna see more than the sour look on her face when you win!"
13. This whole time, I've felt so... So aw-ful!
14. "I even be-trayed my friends just to help you!"
15. "I followed everything you said!"
1. We've always been accomplices- no, friends.
2. That's right,
3. The two of us were never strangers.
4. "So don't just quit all on your own!"
5. "Don't let that selfish bastard with nothing but good looks break your spirit!"
6. "Just like the arrogant satsuki-san I know!"
7. "You lose today, so what? Tell her "I'll win next time" and laugh it off!"
8. "Hey, satsuki-san-"
9. I don't have any words of sympathy or comfort to give,
10. I just love the satsuki-san who's always moving forward.
11. "You..."
1. "Huh!?"
2. "W-woah!"
3. Thank goodness Satsuki-san had them on...
4. "I got a little carried away..."
5. "I-I'm so sorry..."
6. "What on earth are you doing...?"
7. "Hearing all your yelling reminded me of something."
8. "W-why aren't you letting me go...?"
9. "You're not even gonna answer me!?"
10. "Eh?"
11. "You're absolutely right!"
12. "Wait, is this really the time to scold me!?"
13. "You shouldn't pound things like that."
1. "Satsuki-san..."
2. "That oozuka mai isn't as big as she makes herself out to be."
3. "A-and that is...?"
4. "That aside, you really shot your mouth off this time, didn't you, amaori?"
5. "Uh!?"
6. "I-I'm sorry!"
7. "I don't hate this side of you after all."
8. "It's fine, really."
1. "I thought it would reinvigorate me."
2. "No particular reason."
3. "Why!?"
4. "My lips have no such rejuvenative properties, madam!"
1. "Go!"
2. "Aaahhh!"
3. "Let"
4. "Me"
5. "You need to let me go first!"
6. "You're unreasonable!"
7. "How much longer are you gonna cling onto me? It's time to let go now."
8. "I don't really follow, but you're welcome..."
9. "Thank you, amaori."
10. "What is your problem..."
11. The next phase of our war.
12. "I've decided."
13. After all, it makes no sense that only I had my spirits crushed.
14. I have to shatter mai's into dust as well.
15. "What are you scheming now!?"
1. "Well,"
2. "You sure took your time."
3. "Of course, no thanks to you."
4. "How was it?"
5. "Did you manage to come up with a winning strategy?"
6. "Oh, now that's exciting."
7. "No no no no no no no no no!"
8. "Naturally, I was getting physical."
9. "It looks like renako worked up a sweat."
10. "What exactly were you two up to in the bathroom?"
11. "Oh?"
12. There's no way she'll fall for something so obvious.
13. What? Is this some plan to fluster mai?
14. "With amaori."
1. "Although, I am quite jealous..."
2. "It was probably nothing more than a quick hug, am I right?"
3. "Your wording sure is strange, Satsuki."
4. "oho-hoho?"
5. "oh."
6. "We kissed on the lips too."
7. "It's working!?"
8. Scary! So that's what the kiss was for!
9. "You're not wrong, but...!"
10. "Right, amaori?"
11. "Game start!"
12. "I have a feeling we should stop this here!"
13. "G-"
14. "Renako...?"
1. "Let me GOOO"
2. Huh...?
3. I just heard something...
8. "Do you need more translation checkers and typesetters!? (Yes please we are dying)"
9. "5 sleep-deprived college students and 2 underpaid office workers."
10. "Because this scanlation team is pretty much made of"
11. "Why'd it take 2 months for a new release!?"
