See you tomorrow. 20:29.890 --> 20:30.930 What's wrong? 20:38.400 --> 20:39.570 Uh, well... 20:41.320 --> 20:43.530 I, uh... 20:43.700 --> 20:48.330 My last boyfriend, and the one before that, and my first boyfriend... They were all like that. 20:48.490 --> 20:51.000 They all dumped me because I was an otaku. 20:51.160 --> 20:55.460 It's always been like that for me, so this feels so easy for me now! 20:55.630 --> 20:57.960 I don't have to hide the fact that I'm an otaku. 20:58.500 --> 21:01.960 But neither of us is the other's ideal type. 21:02.130 --> 21:06.430 We're both otaku. I'm sure we're both making some compromises. 21:08.010 --> 21:10.430 Well, you're right. 21:12.560 --> 21:17.360 I'd be lying if I said I wasn't compromising on anything. 21:18.480 --> 21:21.030 -Hey, you. Just now... -I wasn't looking. 21:21.190 --> 21:22.610 Where were you looking? 21:22.780 --> 21:25.490 Nowhere. The fact that your boobs are small is unrelated. 21:25.660 --> 21:28.660 You bastard! 21:29.870 --> 21:32.500 In other words, what are you trying to say? 21:32.660 --> 21:34.040 I meant that... 21:34.210 --> 21:38.130 I just thought that maybe you'd rather be dating a normal girl. 21:38.290 --> 21:40.590 That's all. 21:40.750 --> 21:42.840 Okay. The end! Let's go home! 21:46.380 --> 21:49.350 I'm not with you just because you're an otaku 21:49.510 --> 21:52.600 or just because it's easy. 21:54.180 --> 21:59.150 I love seeing you do the things you like. 22:02.110 --> 22:04.820 Anyway, that's how I feel. 22:04.990 --> 22:07.160 So don't think too hard about it. 22:08.200 --> 22:10.370 Hirotaka... 22:11.080 --> 22:13.080 You do like me... 22:13.240 --> 22:17.370 Oh. I take it back. I wish you would think more before you talk. 22:17.540 --> 22:20.460 But you've never said that before. 22:20.630 --> 22:22.000 What if--? 22:22.170 --> 22:26.630 Were you hung up on the fact that I said "it was a little awkward"? 22:27.300 --> 22:30.600 Of course not, idiot. Idiot. 22:44.480 --> 22:49.320 -Hey. How about going to the arcade after this? -West entrance, okay?
