Chapter 21: He's Back!

P2

Minori: That's too bad... // Taiga and Kawashima-san aren't getting along? // They're so hopeless...

--

Minori: But I'm starting to think... / That Kawashima-san is a little different from how I imagined her to be at first. // I want her to get along with Taiga, but.. Friendships between girls can be complicated.

--

Ryuji: But... / Because you're with her... // I'm not too worried about / Taiga...

Taiga: RYUJI!!!

P3

Taiga: Oh no... / What do I do!?

--

Taiga: Ki... / Kitamura-kun has been with that class president this whoooooole time! // This whole time! / He's staying with her this entire time! What do you think about this, Ryuji!?

--

Ryuji: I wish... // You hadn't come along because Kushieda and I were in a good place just now...

Minori: Oh Taiga! What's wrong?

--

Taiga: Minorin!! // I don't want to be here anymore! / I want to go far away!

Minori: You want to elope!? That's fine!!!

--

Ryuji: Sheesh...

--

Ami: Poor you. / You're all alone now, Takasu-kun...

P4

Ami: Shall we team up now since we're the odd people out?

Ryuji: Huh... // I guess we can...

Ami: Great!

--

Girls: Ami-chan!

Ami: Hehe!

--

Ryuji: Don't you have to go hang out with them?

Ami: It's fine!!

--

Ami: I want to talk to you today!

P5

Ami: Phewwww.

--

Ami: It's finally half-full. // Picking up garbage is a lot of work!

--

Ami: Hehe.
Words in her background: [Aren't I cute and a good girl?]

Ryuji: Crap! / Watch out behind you!!

--

Ami: Huh?

P6

Ami: No... / way...

--

Ryuiji: Ka... // Kawashima?

Ryuji: Don't / move!! // Calm down, Kawashima!!

P8

Ami: Noo! / Get them // OFF!!

Ryuji: Okay! / I got it! / Stop kicking! // The tadpoles will be squashed!

--

Ryuji: Here. // I'll leave your shoes here. // They're still wet, but all the tadpoles are gone.

P9

Ami: A... // Ami / chan...

Ryuji: Huh?

--

Ami: I don't... // want to wear this shit // anymore!!

P10

Ami: I can't take this anymore!! // I can't keep this shit up! // Ami-chan is leaving! / Leaving for sure! // AIGHT!?

P11

Ami: Uh... // Just kidding! Hehe!

P12

Ami: Ohhhh stop making such a scary face!

--

Ami: Hehe. // I was so scared I threw my shoes!

--

Ami: Here they are! // I'm glad I found them!

--

Ami: Hey, Takasu-kun. // Do you want to race? // The loser has to give up all the garbage they picked up to the winner! // Then a quota will be done for the winner! // Ready? / Set! GO!!

P13

Ryuji: Kawashima!!

--

Ryuji: Haven't you had enough of that?

P14

Ryuji: What's the point of it all? // What meaning is there / to work so hard to get me to like you?

--

Ami: I don't know? // I don't know what you mean.

--

Ryuji: If you don't get it, that's fine too... / But I'm the one that doesn't get it at all. // Why are you making yourself do all this stupid stuff? // It's pointless.

I didn't intend on confronting her.

P15

Ami: Pointless...? // You don't get it... / Really?

It's just that it seemed like she was doing so much for no reason.

--

Ami: You're not as easy as I thought... // It doesn't work on you... Takasu-kun...

Even if she doesn't do all this, people only think positive things about Kawashima. / She's already popular enough.

P16

Ami: What a horrible day...

--

Am: Achoo!

Ryuji: Are you cold? / You can use this unused garbage bag.

--

Ami: What are you saying?

Ryuji: Cut a hole and wear it?

Ami: NO WAY! / There's no way / I...

--

P17

Ryuji: Uh... // Ka... // Kawashima...?

Ami: Hold on just a bit...!! // Let me stay like this for a bit...! // At least until it goes away!!

Ryuji: It?

P18

Ryuji: That guy!!

--

Ryuji: What's he going here!? / I thought you said it was just a coincidence he was there yesterday...

Ami: He's a stalker.

--

Ami: To... / tell you the truth / he's been stalking me for a while. // I thought I would be free of him if I moved, but...

--

Ami: I even took a break from modeling... / So I thought I was safe...

Ryuji: Kawashima...

--

Minori and Taiga: Ryuji!

Ryuji: Hm?

Minori and Taiga: Kawashima-san! / Ryuji!

P19

Minori: Kawashima-san!

Taiga: Ryuji!

Ryuji: What are they wearing!? // A takoyaki container!?

--

Minori: Maybe / they already left? // I'll check over there.

Taiga: I'll check over here.

--

Ryuji: Hm?? // Uh no...

P20

Stalker: You're cute. // You're small and are dressed strangely; you look like a little demon. // Can I take a picture?
