俺はこの顔が嫌いだ
I hate this face of mine.

中学校に入学と同時に
When I first entered middle school

この顔を隠すために伊達メガネを買った
I had to start wearing fake eyeglasses to help hide my face.

は――――
SFX: Sigh

前髪を下ろした
I grew out my bangs, too.

見られたの同じ学校の子じゃないよね
Sana: The girls who saw my face don’t go to this school,

アレは
Sana(side comment): I think…

ふう。
SFX: Whew.

転校したばっかで自信ないや…
Sana: But I’m not really sure since I just transferred here…

ねえねえ聞いた！？
Student1: Hey, did you hear?!

うちの学コ芸能人が通ってんだって！！
Student1: Some celebrity’s going to school here!!

え―――！？
Students: EEEH?!

マジ――！？そっくりさんなだけじゃねえの？
Student2: Seriously?! Are you sure they don’t just look like him?

あ…
SFX: Geh…

でもさーなんか聞いた話だと
Student1: According to the rumors,

バレないようにメガネかけてるらしいよ
Student1: he’s wearing glasses so no one can recognize him.

Boy: Is he really in our class?

何言ってんのこないだ転校してきたえっと…藤崎くん？だっけ？じゃん
Student1: What are you talking about? He just transferred here. His name’s…Fujisaki-kun, I think.

そのくらい覚えとけって
Student1: You should try to remember at least that much about him.

ちゅうかさだってあいつ存在感無さすぎじゃねぇ？
Boy: But come on, think he could try any harder to not stand out?

暗えんだよ
Boy(side comment): He’s so gloomy.

そりゃなんかいっつも下ばっか向いてるけどさー
Student1: That’s because he’s always looking down.

あ
Student2: Oh yeah,

それよりさっきのその芸能人ってだれだれ？

Student2: going back to that entertainer, who is it?

Page 5

そうそうそれがね
Student1: Oh, right!

私聞いたトキマジ気ィ失いかけたんだけどさ―――
Student1: I thought I was gonna die when I heard who it is.

マジすごいよ！！
Student1: It’s too cool!!

アイドルの麻生水城だって！！
Student1: It’s the super star, Asou Mizuki!!

ああ！？
Naoki: Sound good?!

Naoki(side comment): Geez,

Naoki: you think you’re in any position to complain, ya damn punk? You should be grateful!

誰のおかげでんな可愛いカオ持って生まれてこれたと思ってやがる
Naoki: Who do you think gave you such a cute face to begin with?

何度も言わせんじゃねぇ
Naoki(handwritten): Quit making me repeat myself all the time.

う～～
Sana: Ugh…

あたた
Sana: Owowow.

そ…そっちこそ何度も同じ事言わせないでよ
Sana: Then…you should quit making me repeat myself, too!

実の息子にケリ入れた上チョーハクまでしといて感謝も何もないだろ！？
Sana: There’s no way in hell I’d be grateful to you after you kicked and punched your own son!

父さん！！
Sana: Dad!!

He’s lying by 13 years.

そういや砂名
Naoki: Sana, come to think of it…


お前さっきこの顔のせいでどーのとか言ってたよな
Naoki: Just now you were saying something happened to you because of your face, right?

話あんだろ？はっきり言えよ
Naoki: So what happened? Spill it.

パパがちゃーんと聞いてやっからさ（訳：言えるもんなら言ってみろよ）
Naoki: Daddy will listen to the whole story. (Translation: Tell me if you dare!)

う…
Sana(handwritten): Uh…

こんな天上天下唯我独尊な父親に何を言ってもムダだという事を彼は14年の生活の中ですでに学んでいた
He’s learned through his 14 years of life that there’s no point in arguing with his father, who only respects himself.

な…なんでもないよッ
Sana: It…It’s nothing!

あっそ
Naoki: Alrighty, then.

ありがとさなちゃん
Sugino: Thanks, Sana-chan.

Sugino: Your timing was impeccable, Mizuki.

マネージャー
Sign: Manager

お前今日から禁煙な
Sugino: You’re off the cigarettes starting today.

はぁ！？
Naoki: The hell?!

だいたい１６のアイドルのフリしてるお前がタバコのにおいさせてるわけにゃいかねぇだろが
Sugino: I can’t let a supposedly 16-year old idol go around smelling like cigarette smoke, now can I?

それにお前の健康の為でもあるんだぞ
Sugino: Besides, it’s more healthy for you this way.
これ以上心配かけんな
Sugino: Quit making me worry about you all the time.

…杉…
Naoki: Sugi…

って
Naoki(Handwritten): Jerk!

勝手に決めんな！！お前は俺の保護者か！！
Naoki: That’s not your choice to make! Who are you, my guardian?!

げし。
SFX: Kick!

おま…
Sugino: You jerk!

あんだけいつもいつもメンドーみさせときながら
Sugino: I’m always stuck taking care of you and this is the thanks-

痛！！
Sugino: -that hurt!

あーあ　そうだよ麻生水城のマネージャー兼お前の保護者だよ俺は
Sugino: That’s right! Being your guardian goes along with being Asou Mizuki’s manager.

健康面にも気ィ配ってやってんのがわかんねぇのか！！
Sugino: Why don’t you understand that I’m worried about your health?!

ああそりゃありがたいな
Naoki: I guess I’m supposed to be grateful.

じゃあお前も禁煙しろ
Naoki: Then you have to quit smoking too.

ななんで俺まで
Sugino: Wh-Why do I have to?

保護者なんだろ！！
Naoki: Because you’re my guardian!

カ…カンケーあるのか！？
Sugino: Th-That’s different!

Sugino: Oh yeah,

SFX: Click

そういえばさなちゃん
Sugino: Sana-chan, I was just wondering…

新しい学校にはもう慣れた？
Sugino: …have you adjusted to your new school yet?

あ　はい
Sana: Oh, sure have.

まだ少しとまどう所とかありますけど
Sana: But I still have some quirks I’m working out.

はは
Sugino(side): Haha

もう少ししたら慣れるよ
Sugino: You’ll get used to everything soon enough.

そろそろ文化祭とかの時期だよね
Sugino: Isn’t it about time for the school festival?

友だちもいっぱいできたんじゃない？
Sugino: I bet you’ve made a bunch of friends, huh?

え
Sana: Huh?

…は…
Sana: Uh…

はい…
Sana: Right…

Page 13

――――なぁ
Sugino: Hey….

俺　まずいこと
Sugino: I wonder if

聞いちゃったかな
Sugino: I said something I shouldn’t have.

…たよなぁ　前の学校んトキもさなちゃんが友だちといる所なんてほとんど見なかったからなぁ
Sugino: I probably did. I almost never saw Sana-chan together with any friends back when he was attending that other school.

もしかして学校でひとりとか―――まさかとは思うけどイジメとかにあってたりしたら―――
Sugino: Maybe he’s all alone at school. I doubt it’d happen, but what if he’s being bullied or something?

あああ俺ってやつは俺ってやつはひどい大人だよなッ
Sugino(Handwritten): Man, I’m a jerk. I’m a horrible excuse of an adult.

っせえな
Naoki(side comment): Shut up.

ほっときゃいいじゃん
Naoki: Just leave him be.

人の事よりも自分の頭の方を心配しろよ
Naoki: You should worry about that head of yours before you start worrying about others.

激しく後退しちゃってますよアナタ。
Naoki(handwritten): You’re getting way too morbid.

ガーン
SFX: Too shocking!

って
Sugino(side comment): Hey!

だーかーら!!
Sugino: I told you:

吸うなっつってんだろーが！！
Sugino: No smoking allowed!!

ナチュラルすぎるぞお前
Sugino(handwritten): You do that too naturally.

ジッポも没収！！よこせコラ
Sugino(handwritten): I’m confiscating the zippo lighter, too. Hand it over.

ち
Naoki: Tsch!

バレたか
Naoki(handwritten): Busted.

つーかさ
Sugino: Besides,

何でお前さなちゃん　転校させたんだよ
Sugino: why’d you even have Sana-chan transfer in the first place?

Page 14

そりゃ　お前んちの事に口はさむつもりもないけど
Sugino: It’s not my place to tell you how to run your own home,

ぎゅ。
SFX: Squeeze.

引っ越したわけでもねぇのにわざわざ遠い学校通うなんてさなちゃん　かわいそうだろが
Sugino: but it’s not like you moved or anything. I feel bad for Sana-chan, making him go to some far-off school.

前の学コだと毎日「寄り道」するからな
Naoki: He’d “go goof off” everyday when he was attending that other school.

びっくりした
He really surprised me.

「友だちいっぱいできたんじゃない？」
Sugino: “I bet you’ve made a bunch of friends, huh?”

今まで友だちなんていなかったから
Sana: I’ve never had any friends,

あんまり真剣に考えた事なんてなかったけど
Sana: so I never really gave it much thought.

Page 15

―――でも
But---

「あいつ存在感無さすぎじゃねぇ？」
Boy: “Think he could try any harder to not stand out?”

この顔が目立たないように
I did it so no one would notice my face.

「いっつも下ばっか向いて―――」
Girl: “He’s always looking down.”

やっぱりこの顔じゃ無理だよ
Sana: I can’t do it with a face like mine.

ふう。
SFX: Sigh…

Page 16

...さなちゃん…
Sugino: Sana-chan..

…学校行かなくていいの？
Sugino: Are you sure you don’t have to go to school…?

…イエ
Sana: No…

あの...実は今朝父さんが…
Sana: But…actually, this morning Dad said…

頭いてぇなー
Naoki(handwritten): I have a headache!

お前今日俺の代わりに仕事行ってこい

あ
Sugino: Oh.

そっか今日は…
Sugino: That’s right. Today, he’s…

なるほどね―――
Sugino: Now I get it.

ん
Sugino(side comment): Hmn.

じゃ行こっか
Sugino: Well, let’s get going.

しっかし相変わらず水城のワガママにも困ったもんだな
Sugino: But Mizuki’s finicky attitude sure is annoying.

さなちゃんもホント大変だね
Sugino: It must be tough on you.

す…すみませんほんとに
Sugino: I…I’m really sorry about this.

はは
Sana(side comment): Haha.
いいっていいって　慣れたもんだよ
Sana: It’s okay. I’m fine. I’m used to this.

Page 17

あの…
Sana: So then…

今日はどんな番組なんですか
Sana: What type of show am I going on today?

俺　父さんの代わりにテレビに出るの何度やっても慣れなくて…
Sana: No matter how many times I go on TV for Dad, I never can get used to it…

ブオ―――
SFX: Vooo

ああ大丈夫だよ　今日は軽いトークだけだし　ちゃんとフォローも入れるから
Sugino: Oh, you’ll be fine. You’re gonna go on a simple talk show. And I’ll be there to back you up.

悪いけどよろしく頼むね
Sugino: Sorry about all this, but I’m really counting on you.

ハ・ハイ
Sana: R-Right.

Sugino(handwritten): There!

ハイ。
Sugino(Side comment): Okay.

「麻生水城」のできあがり！！
Sugino: Now you’re “Asou Mizuki”!!

大丈夫　どっからどう見ても水城そのものだよ
Sugino: Don’t worry. You’re the spitting image of Mizuki.

自信持って！！
Sugino: Be more confident!!

がく―――

B-But I’m honestly really happy I get to see her again…really…

来て良かった
Sana: I’m glad I came.

じひん。
SFX: Jihin.

はは…
SFX: Haha…

相変わらず水城も素直じゃないよな―――
Sugino: As always, Mizuki’s not very honest to the boy.

ホント
Sugino(Side comment): Seriously.

...そういえば最初に父さんの代わりをさせられて
Sana: Come to think of it, the first time I met Izumi-san was on this program,

初めて泉さんに逢う事ができたのもこの番組だったんです
Sana: back when Dad had me fill in for him for the first time.

Page 19

父さんよっぽどこの番組が嫌いなんですね
Sana: Dad must really hate this show.

うーん。
SFX: Hmm…

...さなちゃん…
Sugino: Sana-chan…

にぶすぎる…　あいかわらず…
Sugino(side comment): As always…you’re too dense…

砂名さん！？
Izumi: Sana-san?!

砂名さんですよね
Izumi: Sana-san, that’s you, isn’t it?

い…
Sana: I-

泉さん
Sana: Izumi-san…

お久しぶりです
Sana: Long time no see.

すごくうれしいです
Sana: I’m really happy to see you again.
や
Sugino(Side comment): Ya!

泉ちゃん相変わらず水城とさなちゃんを見分ける事ができるんだね
Sugino: Izumi-chan, you’re always able to tell the difference between Mizuki and Sana-chan.

みんなにはナイショにね
Sugino(side comment): Don’t tell anyone, okay?

はいっ
Izumi: Yep!

SFX: Giggles

でも
Izumi: But…

ほんとうにおじさ...いえ麻生さんは優しい方なんですね
Izumi: Your old man-um, I mean, Asou-san sure is nice, don’t you think?

え...？
Sana: Huh…?

だってこんな事でもないと私　砂名さんと逢えませんから
Izumi: After all, I wouldn’t have been able to see you again if he hadn’t done this.

私いつも麻生さんにはご迷惑かけてるのにこんなに親切にして頂いて
Izumi: I’m always causing trouble for Asou-san, but he’s still so nice to me.

麻生さんにカンシャしなくちゃ
Izumi: I really should be grateful to him.

ズキン
SFX: Thump.

う...うん
San: Y-Yeah…

そうだね　父さんに感謝しなきゃ
Sana: You’re right. We should be grateful to him.

あれ...？
Huh…?

気のせいかな
Maybe I’m just imagining things,

なんか一瞬
but for a second there,

心臓がヘンだった気がする
I could have sworn my heart skilled a beat.

Page 21

あ...そうだ…父さん…
Oh, that’s right. Dad…

父さん　まさか学校行ってないよね
I hope Dad didn’t go to school.

おはよ―――
Girl1: Morning!

おっはよー
Girl2: Good morning!

ねぇねぇあのウワサ聞いた！？
Girl2: Hey, did you hear?!

聞いた聞いた　麻生水城でしょ！？

うちの学校に通ってんだってー
Girl1: They say he’s attending school here.

やっべー忘れてたよ　めんどくせぇなー
Student2: Shit! I totally forgot. Man, this is such a pain.

あ　んじゃ転校生に頼めばいいじゃん
Student: Oh, then why don’t you ask that transfer student to do it?

あいつおとなしいから何でもやってくれるってよ
Student: He’s really quiet, so I bet you could get him to do just about anything.

パシリくんにしちまえよ
Student(side comment): Use him as your gofer.

んーそだなー
Student2: Yeah, I guess.

頼んでみっか
Student2(handwritten): Might as well ask him.

パシリくん

Naoki: What was that?!

てめぇでやれよそんくらい
Naoki: Go do that yourself.

ま
Naoki(side comment): Heh.

イジメっつーよりパシリかよ
Naoki: So he’s being used as a gofer instead of getting bullied.

こりゃ
Naoki(side comment): So that’s it.

…つーか
Naoki: Actually…

よ…
Naoki(side comment): I…

よく考えてみりゃ俺んなくそマジメに授業なんざ受けた事なかったんじゃ…

藤崎…
Teacher1: Fujisaki…

何？名簿見てんの？
Teacher2: Why are you looking at the class register?

あ　うん私がカゼで休んでる間に転校生が入ったんだってね
Teacher1: Oh, well I heard that a new student transferred in while I was out sick with a cold.

ほら　一応私副担任だからさ
Teacher1: Ya know, I’m supposed to be their back-up homeroom teacher.

なーんだ私はてっきり噂の「麻生くん」でもチェックしてんのかと思った
Teacher2: That’s all? And here I thought you were checking out that rumor about “Asou-kun.”

ちょっとーあんなのガセに決まってんでしょ
Teacher1: Oh, come on! That’s just a story someone made up.

麻生水城は１６歳なんだってば　もう高校生じゃん
Teacher1: Asou Mizuki’s supposed to be 16. He’s already in high school.

そお？　芸能人の年齢詐称なんて珍しくも何ともないじゃん
Teacher2: Really? It’s not unusual for celebrities to hide their real age, you know.

それよりも麻生水城狂いのあんた噂聞いて大人しいってのがフシギ―――
Teacher2: I’m amazed how calm you are after hearing that rumor considering how big of a nut you are over Asou Mizuki.

何言ってんの
Teacher1: What are you talking about?

私はね　麻生水城が好きなんじゃなくて
Teacher1: I’ll have you know that I’m not in love with Asou Mizuki.

麻生水城が好きだった人に似てるからで…
Teacher1: It’s just Asou Mizuki looks a lot like a person I used to have a crush on.

えー
Teacher2: Eeeh?!

あんた好きな男いたの！？
Teacher2: You had a crush on a guy?!

フツーの男にはキョーミないのかと思ってた
Teacher2(handwritten): I thought you weren’t interested in normal men.

ちゅ…中学生の時の話だって
Teacher1: Th-This was when I was in middle school.

Page 25

その人滅多に学校には来なかったんだけど
Teacher1: He almost never came to school.

たまに現れると女子達がすごい騒いでね―――　もうすぐ分かんの
Teacher1: But the girls would always make such a fuss whenever he did come. You could always tell when he was there.

そういやいっつも屋上でひとり授業さぼってたなー
Teacher1: Come to think of it, he would always skip class and hang out on the roof by himself.

へー　彼女とかいなかったん？
Teacher2: Hm… Didn’t he have a girlfriend?

SFX: Hahahaha!

ま
Teacher2(side comment): Well,

でもさー　私らと同級ってことは今元気してたら29歳ってことだよね
Teacher2: you know, since he was in the same grade as us, that’d make him 29 if he’s well and kicking.

もうとっくに結婚してんじゃないの
Teacher2: I bet he got married a long time ago.

ぐさ。
SFX: Strikes home.

そりゃそうだ
Teacher1: I know that.
