Left Bubbles 彼氏のこと 聞かれて焦った You said they asked you about your boyfriend って言ってた でしょ? and you didn't know how to respond, right? [I'm going back and looking at how Chads translated this part, and there's a problem. They changed the part where Kaori says she was flustered when they asked her about this. I don't think their TL of that line was wrong, they just reworded it a bit and the 焦った got dropped. Don't really know how to fix that, so I guess we just press on regardless.] Bottom Right Panel Bubbles うん Yeah, 言ったかも I guess I said that. Bottom Left Panel Right Bubble それからずっと …不安っていうか Since then I've been really... anxious. Left Bubble …考えてた Or just, I've been いろいろ thinking about it lot. Page 126 Top Right Panel Right Bubbles えっ!?

You're already 30 years old, haven't you met anyone good yet? Page 128 Top Right Panel Bubbles …香里ちゃんも これから ... I think about how you might そういうことを 経験するかも しれないって experience that a lot going forward. Top Left Panel Bubbles そのときに もし And when you do, 私と付き合ってる ことで… the fact that you're dating me... SFX ぎゅ "squeeze" Middle Panel Bubbles 香里ちゃんが 悩んだり means you'll have to worry 辛い思いを したらって and have experience that pain... Bottom Right Panel SFX んー "hmmm" Bottom Left Panel Bubbles …あたしがね あの日 ...

Page 138 Top Right Panel Bubbles そう思ったら すごく When I think about that, 傷つくのが 怖くなって it makes me so afraid of being hurt. Top Center Panel Bubble 佳代子さん… Kayoko-san... Top Left Panel Bubble …ごめんね ... I'm sorry. Bottom Panel Right Bubble 自分のことしか 考えてなくて I was only thinking about myself. Left Bubble ずるいよね… It's unfair to you... SFX ポロ "tear up" Page 139 Top Left Panel SFX ついっ "brush" Upper Bubble …正直ね ... To tell you the truth, Lower Bubble 先のことは あたしもよく わかんない I really don't know what the future will bring.

I feel like it should sound a little more poetic in English, but I haven't been able to come up with anything better yet.] Bottom Panel Text きっと I'm sure 全部の不安が なくなることは ないけど not all of my worries will disappear. Page 141 Top Right Panel Text でも 香里ちゃんの 側にいたい But I still want to be by her side. …その 気持ちだけは 揺るがないなら ... And as long as that feeling doesn't waver, Top Left Panel Text 目の前にいる 香里ちゃんの ことを I'll make sure to treasure 大切にしよう the her while we're together Middle Panel Text 私と一緒の 未来を so that she'll continue to choose 選び続けて もらえるように a future together with me. Bottom Panel Right Box まだ 小さくて 弱いけど Like a flickering star 確かに 芽生えた 決意は in the yet dark night sky, Page 142 Right Boxes まだ暗い 夜空に still small, ちかちか またたく 星みたいに wavering and dim Left Boxes 私の心の中で かすかに a new determination でも 確かに 光っていた has bloomed in my heart.
