[Insert text: Face to face...!!]
Tsubaki: !!

2
Tsubaki: Wh... What?!!
Bossun: I guess... / ...you do look kind of like me.
Tsubaki: Not so close!! // And I do not look like you!!
Bossun: Hmph.
Tsubaki: To think... / ...that you would turn out to be my brother......

3
Bossun: ............... // Did he tell you? // Which one of us is the elder.
Tsubaki: ............... // You, apparently. // Wh... What?!
Bossun: Ohhh~~~~? You're my little brother, huh~~~~~? // Go buy me some coffee.
[TN: ...Says the guy who acts as errand boy for his little sister...]
Tsubaki: I will not!!

4
Tsubaki: I refuse! / Why should I...?!!
Bossun: You're my little brother, right? / Do as your big brother says.
Tsubaki: Never!!
Bossun: Oh, and make it low-suger.
Tsubaki: I'm not going!! // Enough joking about! // Do you honestly believe I can just accept you as an older brother that easily?!
Bossun: Yeah, I guess you're right. I'm seriously totally absolutely not feeling it at all either. // I'm just... not feeling it. // Was it a big shock for you? // I mean... you didn't even know that you weren't blood-related to your family until now, right?

5
Tsubaki: I had... // ...already realised that I did not share a blood relation with my parents.
Bossun: Huh?! Seriously?!
Tsubaki: Seriously. // My... / Well, I don't know about yours, but my blood type is AB. // And as for my parents, my father's is A and my mother's is B. // ...Or at least that's what they told me. // Since we live at a hospital, naturally we have files on my parents themselves. Two years ago, out of random curiosity, I happened to take a look at them; my parents' blood types were both O. // Two parents of blood-type O cannot produce a child of type AB. / In other words, my father and mother were not my parents. // If I ever went through a period of shock, it was back then.
Bossun: But... your old man said...!
Tsubaki: My parents were not aware that I had realised the truth. / They know nothing of this. // I saw no reason to tell them. // After all...

6
Tsubaki: I am still the son of my father and mother, regardless of blood.
Bossun: Huh. Quite the grown-up, aren't you. // Me, I ran away from home. / Now I just feel stupid.
Tsubaki: Two years ago... I realised the truth... / ...and decided to become stronger. // Well... / There were certain other factors... // But at any rate, / I made the decision to become stronger.

7
Saori: We will now begin the post-festival folk dance! // Everyone in the grounds, gather around the bonfire and link hands!
Bossun: ...You angry?
Tsubaki: ............... // I would be lying if I said I felt no anger. // ......But... // Strangely enough, I do not actually... feel all that much of it.
Bossun: (Exactly the same...)
Tsubaki: In fact... / To be honest...

8
Tsubaki: ...Hmph. // Perhaps I would be happier about all this if my long-lost brother were someone else.
Bossun: Huh? // Oh, don't you go getting me started! / Why do I have to have you as a brother, of all people?!
Tsubaki: You took the words right out of my mouth!!
Bossun/Tsubaki: ...............
Bossun: By the way... / ...why exactly is it that we're always at each other's throats, again...?
Tsubaki: Doubtless because you insist on provoking conflict at every opportunity.
Bossun: You mean you do!
Tsubaki: No, I mean you!
Bossun: No, you!
Tsubaki/Bossun: Hmph.
Flashback!Agata: "Though it isn't really much of a reason..." // "He just strikes me as something of a rival." // "...I just can't stand him."

9
Flashback!Agata: Though in some ways the two of you appear diametrically opposed... you're really quite similar.
Bossun: (Though there's no real reason... / ...we just bother one another. // And that's because we're so similar...... huh. // To be honest... / ...deep down... // ...I may have known that already.) // Well, / don't worry yourself. // It's not like anything's going to change between us because of this. // We're not exactly going to suddenly start being buddy-buddy brothers or anything, right? // And our lives will be just like they were. // Separate classes, separate clubs. // Just a couple of students... // ...who don't really get along.

10
Bossun: Nothing's going to change.
Tsubaki: .........Yes. // I agree.
Bossun: Well, then. / I guess that's that settled. // I'm heading home. // ............... // Oh, ah... // Well... / Look...

11
Bossun: You should come and have dinner at my place sometime. // I'll introduce you to my mum and my sister.
Tsubaki: Sure.
Bossun: See ya, then. / I'm totally worn out after all this. // Man... / Honestly, what a day.

12
Tsubaki: Happy birthday.
Bossun: Happy birthday.
Saori: That brings our post-festival activities to an end! // I hope you all enjoyed yourselves!
Bossun: Hm?

13
Bossun: Huh? // Ehhh?!! / What's all this...?! // What's wrong with me all of a sudden?!! // Huh?
Flashback!Doctor: You are a twin. // You are not alone. // You are not alone.
Bossun: ...Hahah...

14
Himeko: But, man... I just dunno, ya know...? // I guess these things... they really happen, huh...? // I mean... what's up with that...? // This really is some crazy shit...

15
Himeko: Ahhh...... I just can't believe it, ya know...?
Bossun: That's enough already!!
Switch: You're like the protagonist of a manga or something.
Bossun: How long do you guys plan on sitting there acting all shocked?!!
Himeko: So, hey - have you talked with Tsubaki at all since then?
Bossun: Can't say I have really, no.
Himeko: But why?! You guys are brothers, aren't you?! // All right, that's it! We're gonna go to the Student Council an' see him right now! / An' you two can talk!
Bossun: The heck is that?!!
Switch: Just a minute. I want to capture this on film.
Bossun: I'm not going!! // Stop screwing around! I'm going home!
Himeko: Hey - wait a minute~!
Tsubaki: Ah...
Bossun: !
Himeko: Ah - / Tsubaki!

16
Himeko: Why're you gettin' all embarrassed?!! // You an' all?!! // Ho~ld it, hold it! What's with that reaction?! / What are you, a guy an' girl the day after a confession?! // Act more like brothers, would ya?!
Bossun: Hey... shaddup!!
Switch: Come now - shake hands.
Bossun: Seriously, stop it, would you, guys?!!
Tsubaki: Why do we have to shake hands?!!
Himeko: C'mon, gimme your hand...
Bossun: Give it a rest... come on... hey...!
Tsubaki/Bossun: STOP THAT!!!

17
Video!Akane: Come on... what's all this about a surprise?! Just tell me...!
Video!Haru: Hehehe... it's a secret. But don't worry, I know you'll like it!
Video!Ryousuke: You'll just have to wait~! // Take a look at Haru's tummy! It's getting re~ally big now, huh?!
Video!Haru: ...Who are you even talking to, anyway? Hahaha...
Video!Ryousuke: To our new family, of course! // Heheh... Let's all watch this video together every year on our kids' birthday! // Hey there~! You growing up happy and healthy~?
Video!Haru: Happy birthday!
