93-1 Grade School Student Diary

94-2 My coming of age photo [A ceremony when Japanese become adults at 20]

95-1 I wanted to wear kimono so bad

I cried in the bathroom

95-2 What

95-3 What

95-4 Is he a woman?

96-1 That would be so funny if he was!
Oh god, my side hurts!

People like you have no right to be laughing like that

96-3 Vmmmm

96-4 It's already this late

96-5 I hope they don't get made at us

Yeah

97-2 I'm sorry

97-3 If you're going to be late, it's ok if you at least let us know!

97-4 So why the lie?

97-5 Hurry up and eat your dinner

98-1 Don't tell such flimsy lies!

98-2 Oh god! Yo-chan has started lying to me!

98-3 You're blowing it out of proportion

98-4 You'll get more as she gets older!

No she won't!

98-5 She's not you!

Oh

98-6 Shuu's a boy, so that's less problem, but you are a girl, so...

99-1 You tell me where you went!

99-2 My stomach hurts...

99-3 My period... cramps...

99-4 You cheat!
Don't dare use that excuse with me!

Ow
Ow

100-1 Going to the movie... That was a lie, right?

100-2 Did you go to see your adult friends?

100-3 ...yeah

100-4 Oh man, the blood went to my head

Owwww

100-5 That's cool. Adult friends

Onee-chan

100-6 Do you have a notebook you're not using?

101-2 Morning

Morning

101-5 Ah, don't read it here!

102-2 This is...

102-3 Oh man...

Uh uh

102-4 I should write a response, right?
I'll do it!

Morning!

102-5 I've never done an exchange diary before. It looks fun

M-morning!

102-6 Morning

You gonna do an exchange diary?

Nope
Nope

103-1 I ended up saying "no"

103-2 But it'd be a shame not to

Ok, Takatsuki-san
problem #1

103-3 Ok!

103-4 Problem #2, Nitori-kun

103-5 Problem #3, Wada-san, ok?

Riiight

Oh man

104-2 Yuki-san was drinking

104-3 And that Shi-chan guy

104-4 Those two...

104-5 They're weird

104-6 But it was a lot of fun, huh?

105-1 I was really happy you wrote all of that

105-2 I love kids like you two!

105-3 And then she burst into song right after that!

Yeah

105-4 Yuki-san is nice

105-4 Yeah

105-5 Heey
Is the garbage ready to be taken out?

Yeah

106-1 Nitori-kun, you seem to be in better spirits

106-2 You were feeling down?

106-3 Bye bye

Bye bye

106-4 It's so cool you two are like that

106-5 I wish I had a friend like that back then

107-2 Wow

Wow
You wrote back

Hey, don't read it in front of me, ok?

108-1 Exchange diary?

Ah

Ummm

108-2 Uncool, huh...?

That's not true

108-3 So they're...

108-5 Nitori-kun and Takatsuki-san are...

108-6 Mmmmm

Well

I guess it's ok...

109-1 I didn't know...

Ah
I don't think they meant to do it

109-2 I think things just happened that way

109-3 If you want to join
I'm sure they'd let you

109-4 They don't have to bother

109-5 Sasa-chan!

Wha?

Sasa-chan [handwritten]

110-1 Let's exchange diaries ourselves!

Wha?

110-2 Let's do it!

Ah

Ok

110-4 Chiba-san, are you mad?

Mm-nn

110-5 I'm not mad
I have no right to be mad...

111-1 No right...
But I feel a little left out

Ah
Yeah...
Me too

111-2 But I never could keep it up

111-3 I always forget
Everyone gets mad and drops me

111-4 Just write when you remember

111-5 We've never played just the two of us, huh?

111-6 Yeah

112-1 Nitori

112-3 If we invite Sasa-chan, we can't just keep Chiba-san out,

Yeah

112-4 I guess it's ok since Chiba-san knows about us...

112-5 Sasa-chan's nice

Yeah

113-1 She's nice, but how are we going to break it to her?

...yeah

113-3 Just what are you doing?

113-4 They're stressing over who to do a exchange diary with

Oh my

113-5 Must be nice to be a grade school kid

And just how are junior high kids?

114-1 I've know Sasa-chan since pre-school

I guess to have her know everything is kind of self-indulgent

114-4 Self-indulgent...

115-1 I'm not very good with words

115-2 I get embarrassed

So that's why I write things in this notebook

115-3 Oh...
That's how it is

115-4 Hey, don't cry!

115-5 I'm not crying!

You look like you're gonna cry

Ha

116-1 I won't cry!

You'll become stupid if you cry

I won't!

116-2 knock knock

116-3 Ta-dah!

A big cake for Maho!

116-4 You forgot my birthday, you brat!

116-5 To Takatsuki-san:

I'll write

Yesterday's fun stuff down in here
