Original Drama ~Haruka & Rin~
Track 3 of TV Anime FREE! Character Song Duet Single Vol.4

RIN: Hey, Haru. Thanks for lending me the bath first.
HARU: Sure.
RIN: Huh? …Did Makoto go home already?
HARU: He said he had to put Ren and Ran to sleep. The extra T-shirts are in there. Pick whichever you want.
RIN: Oh, thanks. [opens the drawer, pulls up a shirt] Yeaaaaah, what the hell is this?
HARU: It’s the Northern Stoplit Loosy-kun T-shirt. Wearing that to sleep will help you to sleep deeply, as if you were at the bottom of the ocean.
RIN: As usual, you make no sense. [pauses] By the way… that thing you had in the bath…
HARU: The loofah?
RIN: No.
HARU: [thinks] The Essential shampoo?
RIN: No! That ornament… you know, the dolphin one.
HARU: Oh, that.
RIN: It’s the one you got from Iwatobi SC, right? I can’t believe you still have that.
HARU: You got one, too.
RIN: Y–Yeah… It disappeared somewhere.
HARU: I see.
RIN: Well, I can’t bring useless stuff like that to Samezuka’s dorms, anyway.
HARU: … [doesn’t comment] Is it okay that you don’t go back to your dorm tonight?
RIN: Yeah, I got permission to spend the night off-campus.
HARU: I wasn’t expecting you to be sleeping over.
RIN: It’s been a long time since I was last in your house. But… [looks around] Not only is that dolphin ornament there, your room is still the same as I remember! [laughs] You really haven’t changed.
HARU: The futon’s over there. Lay it out yourself.
RIN: …Are you even listening to me?
HARU: Or do you want to sleep together in the bed again like old times?
RIN: LISTEN TO ME! [sighs] Being your double act has made me hungry. This is your fault.
HARU: Don’t blame me. Let’s eat something then. Just so you know, there’s no meat here.
RIN: What do you have then?
HARU: Ma–
RIN: Besides mackerel.
HARU: …Nothing.
RIN: What kind of a house is this? I don’t care, just make something. Makoto mentioned that you’re good at cooking.
HARU: I’m only as good as the average person. All right then, let’s go downstairs.

x x x

RIN: Hey, mackerel miso! Looks good. Time to eat– [bites] IT’S SALTY! What the heck is this? Did you mix up the sugar with salt?
HARU: This is one of the dishes that Makoto failed at making the other day.
RIN: Then don’t feed it to me!
HARU: It’s perfect when you eat it with ten bowls of rice.
RIN: That’s not good! Feed me something normal!

x x x

RIN: [puts down chopsticks and sighs] That was great! Thanks for the food. Japanese food is nice once in awhile. The next time I come here, I’ll cook you something.
HARU: You can cook?
RIN: Yeah, when I was abroad I had to cook for myself. So, I can manage the basics… Hey, you have cookbooks. And… [dryly] They’re all about mackerel. Man, you’ve got a really biased repertoire… Hmm? This is…
HARU: Our elementary school’s graduation album.
RIN: Oh, this brings me back… Hey, we wrote essays that were published in here, didn’t we? [flips through the pages] Ah. [snickers] “Water is alive.”
HARU: !
RIN: “Once you dive in, it will immediately bare its fangs and attack.” [laughs]
HARU: …
RIN: [laughing] What are you trying to sound all contemplative for?
HARU: Hey, don’t read other people’s essays! [grabs the book, turns the page]
RIN: Ah! …Hey, Haru!
HARU: “My Shining.”
RIN: Eh?
HARU: “Iwatobi Elementary School is irreplaceable to me.”
RIN: Gahh!
HARU: “The sparkling windows, the fluttering butterflies weaving their way through the school garden.”
RIN: [tries to grab the book] You asshole–
HARU: “All of it dazzles and makes me shining!”
RIN: Don’t read it out loud!
HARU: “That is where I also found my other Shining.”
RIN: HARU! [still grabbing for the book] HARU!
HARU: “If we are able to fly together, than a sea of light that spreads out endlessly–”
RIN: STOP IT, DAMN IT!

x x x

RIN: Oh. Thanks for pulling out the futon.
HARU: You didn’t bring your pillow?
RIN: As if I would.
HARU: Will you be able to get to sleep?
RIN: Don’t make fun of me.
HARU: Are you leaving early tomorrow morning?
RIN: I’ll be waking up at 6 to go for a jog before I go. If I miss even a day’s training, it affects my performance.
HARU: Then I’ll run with you.
RIN: [laughs] Okay. Good night then.
HARU: I’m turning off the light.
RIN: Mmhm.
[HARU turns off the light and walks to his bed]
RIN: Hmm?
HARU: What?
RIN: …I see a book under your bed.
HARU: That’s…!
RIN: [grinning, reaches towards the book] Haru! Even you read stuff like this, huh?
HARU: [blocks him] STOP, THAT’S…!
RIN: What, are you embarrassed?
HARU: I’m not embarrassed…
RIN: Then what’s the problem?
HARU: …
RIN: …All right, I won’t look at it. Relax. [flops back onto the futon]
HARU: … [slowly lies back down in bed]
RIN: By the way… you haven’t taken a bath yet, have you… Go take one.
HARU: No. I’ll do it in the morning.
[pause]
RIN: Have you gone to the bathroom?
HARU: I don’t want to.
[pause]
RIN: [giggles] What, are you that worried about leaving me alone here? Don’t worry, I absolutely will not look at that book right there underneath your bed.
HARU: …
RIN: C’mon, don’t be so embarrassed. All guys have books like that under their beds.
HARU: Really?
RIN: Yeah.
HARU: I see… Then, Rin, does that include you?
RIN: No comment on that.
HARU: …You dodged the question.
RIN: [yawns] I’m gonna sleep now.
HARU: Okay… Good night.
[RIN turns over and eventually makes light snoring noises]
HARU: …Rin? Are you asleep?
[silence]
HARU: I’ll go take a bath.
[HARU quietly walks out of the room]
RIN: [quietly giggles] You fell for it, Haru. Now, while I still can–
HARU: HEY.
RIN: Wah?! I thought you were taking a bath!
HARU: I forgot my underwear.
RIN: Don’t forget your underwear!
HARU: Why have you got your hand shoved underneath my bed?
RIN: I’m helping you look for your underwear.
HARU: You’re not fooling anyone. Don’t touch that book.
RIN: [pulls out the book] Yeah, right.
HARU: Give that back!
RIN: Nope!
HARU: Give that back!
RIN: Haru, what are you getting all upset for? That only makes me want to see it more! I’m definitely gonna have a look!
HARU: Rin! Cut it out!
RIN: [walking across the room] It’s so dark here, I can’t see anything! Gotta turn on the light!
HARU: S–Stop!
[RIN turns on the light]
HARU: !!!
RIN: …Haru… you…
HARU: …
RIN: “Monthly Issue of Japan’s Famous Mineral Springs and Me”…
HARU: …
RIN: And it comes with a free DVD enclosed…
HARU: I’m not lending it to you.
RIN: I don’t want it. [laughs, then sighs] This just got really stupid all of a sudden. I’m going to bed.
HARU: Then… I’ll go take a bath. Just to be clear, that book is really rare. You can’t find it anywhere anymore. If you insist that much on looking at it though, I can be convinced to–
RIN: JUST GO ALREADY.

x x x

[HARU quietly enters his bedroom. RIN is sleeping]
HARU: [smiles] Good night, Rin.

x x x

HARU: Want to run along the coast?
RIN: Sure.
[pause]
RIN: Hey, Haru.
HARU: Hm?
RIN: Well… Thing is, I remembered. [awkwardly] Gou put it up for display in our front hall. The dolphin ornament.
HARU: !
RIN: I’m going ahead! [runs off]
HARU: …Haha.

FOOTNOTE
“Ookuchin-hosoe-son” (オオクチンホソエソン, translated here “Northern Stoplit Loosy”) is a parody of the name of the real “Ookuchi-hoshie-so” (オオクチホシエソ, Northern Stoplight Loosejaw), altered to make it sound more cutesy. It’s referring to a character in the game that Haruka mentions in the first FrFr!

桜の下しゃがんで　並べた言葉達が
まだ少し冷たい風の中で
春を待たず旅立つ　その背中押すように
柔らかな日射しに溶けた

思い出はいつもどこか　照れくさいキョリで
俺たちの帰りを待っている

忘れてしまうには　大き過ぎたんだ
あれがあるかないかで　この景色が決まる
あの時過ごした　短い冬に探してた
夏への入り口

多分あのままだって　それなりの毎日を
俺らしく泳いでいられたけど
夢に手を伸ばすように　泳ぎたいと思った
おまえと最高のリレー

水を掻き　切り拓いて　進むその先で
俺たちは　いつでも自由なんだ

変わったつもりで　何も変わらない
ムキになるのもミョウに　張り合いがあったり
あの時出会って　俺たちだからできたこと
きっと忘れない

TRANSLATION
Squatting beneath the cherry blossoms next to the words lined up
Within a breeze that still had just a tinge of cold
You took off without waiting for spring to come, and as if it were pushing you from behind
The cold melted into a gentle warm sunlight

The memories always kept back somewhere at an awkward distance
Waiting for our return

It was too great to be forgotten
This sight will decide whether it is there or not
In that brief winter that we’d spent together, when we had searched for
The entrance to summer

I probably could have gone on swimming every day in my own way
Ever since that day, if nothing had changed, but
Like reaching out a hand towards a dream, I yearned to swim with you
In the best relay ever

Towards wherever we go as we paddle through the water and cut a path ahead
We are always free

I thought that things were different now, but nothing had changed at all
Even getting worked up over something strangely has a sense of worth to it
By meeting each other back then, it’s something that could have only been done because it’s us
I will not forget it

It was too great to be forgotten
This sight will decide whether it is there or not
In that brief winter that we’d spent together, when we had searched for
The entrance to summer

I thought that things were different now, but nothing had changed at all
Even getting worked up over something strangely has a sense of worth to it
By meeting each other back then, it’s something that could have only been done because it’s us
I will not forget it

TRANSLATION
The pull of tomorrow

I thought that I’d let go of it, but it had always lurked smoldering in my heart
It was when we fought that I realized for the first time what I really felt
For me to remain honest to my feelings
I understand now that I should have risen above it

The water, as if without question,　Ah,
Always reflects back the truth
It’s my wave

Because it’s this place, because it’s you, these feelings are sincere
In the future, we will show that with our smiles　I feel so
In the same water that we swim through now, something strong like absolute conviction
Conveys, more than dreams ever will, the pull of hope

We’re both the best rivals for each other
And I have no intention of losing, not even from here on
The answer that I’d come upon gave me, more than I had ever speculated,
So many things, both now and in the past

I can chase after it while facing straight forward,　Ah,
Let’s jump in the water and feel it for ourselves
It’s my wave

Every time we panicked, every time we resisted, the water always grabbed a tight hold of us as if in refusal
And taught our aimless hearts　I will go
Telling me that the direction of this stream that continues onward endlessly
Will surely lead me to the future I am aiming for, with the power to believe

【Haruka】 Take your mark…
【Rin】 Ready…
【Both】 GO!

It’s my wave

Because it’s this place, because it’s you, these feelings are sincere
In the future, we will show that with our smiles　I feel so
In the same water that we swim through now, something strong like absolute conviction
Conveys, more than dreams ever will, the pull of hope

Original Drama ~Rin & Rei~
Track 3 of TV Anime FREE! Character Song Duet Single Vol.3

RIN: Hey, Rei.
REI: What is it, Rin-san?
RIN: I’ve been wondering for some time now… Why are you only able to swim butterfly?
REI: [stabbed through the heart]
RIN: How come it hasn’t even occurred to anyone here that they teach you? If you’re given a proper swimming lesson, you ought to be able to swim like all normal folk.
REI: [stab stab]
RIN: Even kindergartners these days can do the crawl, at least.
REI: [stab stab stab]
RIN: I mean, heh, only being able to swim butterfly doesn’t even make sense logically.
REI: [screams] What is your problem?! You just keep up the criticism, don’t you! Without even knowing how I feel! I endeavored with my utmost efforts! Haruka-senpai and the others taught me in great detail! But still, I couldn’t swim! That’s right, I can only swim butterfly, so what?! Humans are originally creatures that evolved out of the water so that they can live on land anyway! You don’t understand what it’s like not being able to swim! You don’t understand what it feels like, sinking like a rock in water every time!!
RIN: Okay, okay, I’m sorry! In that case, I’ll teach you.
REI: ?!
RIN: What’s the matter? Don’t you want to be able to swim?
REI: …I–I… do…
RIN: Then follow me.
REI: …! Okay!

x x x

RIN: I guess we’ll start by teaching you freestyle– the crawl, first.
REI: Haruka-senpai taught me the crawl before, but I couldn’t do it…
RIN: Heh. My teaching style isn’t mild like Haru’s. I won’t show mercy. You better be ready.
REI: Okay!
RIN: Listen up, Rei. The crawl is the foundation of all swimming styles. Master it and you’ll be able to swim the other strokes.
REI: I’ll be able to swim backstroke and breast stroke…!
RIN: This goes for all of the strokes, but what’s most important is how you move your hips. Your hips are your core consideration for how you kick, stroke, breathe, and all that. Here’s how it’ll look illustrated. [drawing] See how easy it is when I draw lines here from your hip in connection to the movement of your hands and kick? This part of the straight stroke is the part that enters into the water. In the theoretical sense, it has the least resistance and thus–
REI: This is all so easy to understand! It’s very different from the way Haruka-senpai taught me.
RIN: What did Haru tell you?
REI: “Fly with my heart.”
RIN: I see the guy’s still using abstract descriptions. Heh. I’m different from the likes of Haru. I’ll be sure to teach you in a way that fits your style. I’ll show you the difference between him and me.
REI: O–Okay!
RIN: All right then, let’s go!
[RIN and REI jump into the water]
RIN: Ready…
REI: [breathes in]
RIN: Go!
REI: [goes underwater]
RIN: …
REI: …
RIN: Why is he sinking?
REI: [surfaces] …Why?
RIN: That’s what I want to know!! Don’t tell me you only call yourself a logical thinker when you really aren’t and just make excuses later to justify yourself?!
REI: N–Not at all! I am, without any doubt, all about logic!
RIN: Then try it again. Your hands go like this! Your legs go like this! Your hips go like this!
REI: Okay!
RIN: Ready…
REI: [breathes in]
RIN: Go!
REI: [goes underwater]
RIN: …
REI: …
RIN: [groans]
REI: [surfaces and sighs calmly] It appears that I was born to be a butterfly swimmer. This is a sign from god that I improve solely on my butterfly stroke and that I must not be distracted by learning other strokes.
RIN: Don’t talk about god if you call yourself a logical thinker.
REI: [ignoring RIN] There’s no other choice, I will have to spare learning freestyle for today. From here on, I will improve my butterfly! And then, with butterfly, I will take over the world! HAHAHAHAHA!
RIN: …Sure, if that’s what you want.
REI: But there is one thing I lack before I can do so. Rin-san, I want you to teach it to me.
RIN: What is it? The technique for butterfly?
REI: No! I want you to tell me an example of a good sea creature that I can go by!
RIN: Huh?
REI: You know! Like how Haruka-senpai is a dolphin, you’re a shark, Nagisa-kun is a penguin, and Makoto-senpai is the king of the sea, the orca! Even though he swims backstroke, he’s an orca! Backstroke has absolutely no relation to how the orca swims! If you were to give an example of backstroke swimming, wouldn’t you use the otter?! But instead, he’s an orca!!! And, for some reason, I alone am a butterfly. A normal insect named exactly after the name of the stroke! There’s nothing witty about that at all!!!
RIN: Tch, you’re complaining about this now? What a pain in the ass.
REI: So, please tell me an example of a sea creature that befits me!
RIN: Then… how about the flying fish? When it spreads its fins and flies over the water surface, it brings to mind the butterfly stroke. Its speed mid-air also ranges from 50 to 70 km/hr. It’s pretty fast.
REI: No! The flying fish only goes its fastest above water when it’s escaping from predators! Running away quickly from danger isn’t beautiful at all!
RIN: Then how about the tuna? It’s big, it’s fast. It eats flying fish.
REI: Tuna… Let’s try that out for a bit. I will swim butterfly while I leave you to come up with the description. Here I go.
[REI begins to swim butterfly]
RIN: That swimming… That speed that keeps everyone else at bay! He rides on Japan’s current while migrating wildly through the Pacific Ocean, like the stroke of the tuna!
REI: [surfaces]
RIN: How was that?
REI: It sounds cool, but doesn’t make sense at all when you really think about it! Besides, when people think of tuna, the first image that comes to mind is a fish that’s slow to respond and lazes around. It’s not beautiful! Isn’t there a better example I can use?
RIN: How about the yellowtail then?
REI: Yellowtail?
RIN: Yeah. It’s a fish that represents different stages of growth. It’ll be the image of your future, as someone who grows by starting off as dead weight but moving on to swimming in the prefecturals, then in the nationals, and then on to the world. Coolest example ever, don’t you think?
REI: [laughs, most pleased] Very well! It’s perfect for me! Okay then… here I go!
[REI begins to swim butterfly]
RIN: That swimming… It’s like the stroke of one who is wildly maturing from a clueless small fish into a young yellowtail, then into an adolescent yellowtail… then into a fully grown yellowtail that’s the fattest it can be!
REI: [surfaces] You’re talking like you’re looking at the lineup of sushi dishes in a conveyor belt restaurant!!!
RIN: Oh my god, you’re such a pain!
REI: Besides, the pronunciation for adult yellowtail sounds like “BURITT!” like some globby thing is sticking out, and that isn’t beautiful at all!!
RIN: Oh, for chrissakes! Fine, I got it. As long as it sounds cool, that’s what you want, right? Then Geppetto. How about that?
REI: Geppetto? What’s that?
RIN: It’s the name of an awesome guy who got swallowed by a whale and survived inside its stomach.
REI: That’s the name of the grandpa who made the puppet with the nose that grows longer whenever it lies! It has nothing to do with swimming!! Just forget it! [sighs] Instead, there’s one last thing I want you to tell me.
RIN: Hm? What, all you’ve been doing is complain at me! I’m fresh out of ideas, okay?
REI: You and me. What is our relationship?
RIN: H–Huh?
REI: Rin-san. Even though you’re on a different team, you share a deep bond of friendship with Haruka-senpai and the others. Among this group, I hold the position that you once had, and like you, I swim butterfly.
RIN: …
REI: Are you and I rivals? Or are we friends?
RIN: …Heh. Rivals? Friends? That isn’t for me to tell you. The one who decides that, Rei… is you.

FOOTNOTE
In case it isn’t clear, the Japanese yellowtail is called by different names as it grows larger. The “inada” is yellowtail that is 40cm long (translated here as “very young yellowtail”), the “hamachi” is yellowtail that is 60cm long (translated here as “adolescent yellowtail”), and the “buri” is fully fledged yellowtail that is over 80cm long (translated here as “fully grown”).

TRANSLATION
C’mon, show me all you’ve got　Very well, I will not lose
I’ll show you the best there is　Challenge accepted

I’m already well-prepared, so let’s get started
I am evolving through the stages rapidly, with this butterfly (Hmph, how beautiful)

Now you’ve said it　Naturally　I’ll see for myself
Just how well you strut your stuff
Here I go　Sure, bring it on!

GO ALL OUT!! Get fired up to the max, and burn yourself out this summer
In that way, aah
Against the blazing sun, we won’t lose or be inferior to its heat. With intensity, our bodies burn to a crisp
Our, aah
Serious match, is a youth without any hard feelings at its height

You already know how amazing I am. You’ve got some nerve
Only recently you didn’t even know how to swim? The day you beat me will be a cold day in hell (Hah! It’s impossible!)

No　What is?　It wasn’t like that at all
I was simply lacking the theories back then
Excuses, excuses!　It’s perfect now!

Oh, PERFECT!!　Within the water where sparks scatter, this summer is at its peak
I can feel it, aah
Within the scorching red heat, we battle each other, glare at each other, and want to compete with all of our strength
Between us, aah
Is a head-to-head fight, a youth where neither of us back down. Just the way I like it.

Whether or not you actually are worth considering
Here I go　Sure, bring it on!

GO ALL OUT!! Get fired up to the max, and burn yourself out this summer
In that way, aah
Against the blazing sun, we won’t lose or be inferior to its heat. With intensity, our bodies burn to a crisp
Our, aah
Serious match, is a youth without any hard feelings at its height

【Rin】 Rei! You’re not bad!
【Rei】 Rin-san, I will show you an even more beautiful me next time!

夢はきっと叶うさ　Uh, yeah

不器用に繋がりあって　理解不能に歯痒くて

意地になる自分止められずに

踏み込んだのは仲間だからで
あの日確かに、あれが答えだった

What we desired was clear vision
And passion that can’t be exchanged for anything else
This current time that we’ve willingly chosen
We’ll move forward with, using all of our might　Oh, yeah

Because it’s an important place to me, I can’t allow myself to be inadequate
As I feel the fire rise within me
Until I can’t maintain control of my emotions any longer

I won’t say “it’s too late” anymore
It’s never too late to start today

By admitting it, we realize our true feelings
Being jealous of others won’t change that
By wearing our hearts on our sleeves
Our dreams will surely come true　Uh, yeah

Our clumsy interactions make me feel vexed from their incomprehensibility
Even when I vehemently deny, it’s a useless struggle
And I’m unable to stop my stubborn self

I had to step in because of friends
On that day, that was truly the answer

What we desired was clear vision
And passion that can’t be exchanged for anything else
This current time that we’ve willingly chosen
We’ll move forward with, using all of our might　Oh, yeah

There’s no such thing as “it’s too late”
Today’s start will be the next answer

By admitting it, we realize our true feelings
Being jealous of others won’t change that
By wearing our hearts on our sleeves
Our dreams will surely come true　Uh, yeah

Original Drama ~Nagisa & Rei~
Track 3 of TV Anime FREE! Character Song Duet Single Vol.2

NAGISA: Ah! Rei-chan, over here!
REI: [runs up] Sorry to keep you waiting, Nagisa-kun! I’m so ashamed to be 3 minutes late for our meeting time.
NAGISA: Hehe, it’s okay. I just got here myself.
REI: Where are Haruka-senpai and the others?
NAGISA: Surprisingly not here yet…
REI: That’s odd. We’re supposed to meet in front of the station plaza at 11, aren’t we?
NAGISA: Right. [takes out cellphone] We’re supposed to meet here at 11 so we can all go to the sports shop and buy swimsui– AHHHHHHH!
REI: W–What’s wrong?
NAGISA: I’m sorry, Rei-chan! I made a mistake! We’re supposed to be meeting at 1!
REI: Wha–!?
NAGISA: But I guess it’s better than being late.
REI: You have a point but… What do we do for the next two hours?
NAGISA: Let’s just pick a place and idle away there.
REI: Time isn’t meant to be idled. That’s why we have the saying “time is money”!
NAGISA: You sound like Ama-chan-sensei.
[REI laughs]
NAGISA: Then where can we spend 2 hours of our time in a worthwhile way? Hmmm… I know! Let’s go there!
REI: There?

x x x

[NAGISA and REI walk inside their destination]
REI: A–A karaoke place?
NAGISA: Yep! It’s 150 yen per hour for one person and you can sing as much as you want! The drinks are charged separately though.
REI: [awed] This is a karaoke bar…
NAGISA: Eh? Rei-chan, have you never been to karaoke before?
REI: I–Is that so wrong? I just happen to not have been given the opportunity…
NAGISA: Hmm, you’re a rare specimen among modern high schoolers.
REI: Is that so?
NAGISA: But I’m glad. This means I get to be witness to your first time at karaoke. I’ll teach you all sorts of stuff. This is the remote control, and this is the mic.
REI: I can tell that much on my own. And I never said that I was going to sing.
NAGISA: Ehh, don’t say that! I really like your voice, Rei-chan!
REI: ………I–I think it’s a normal voice………
NAGISA: That’s not true! I really want to hear you sing!
REI: But…
NAGISA: I want to hear you siiiiiing! [NAGISA nudges his head into REI’s side]
REI: ………Stop that………
NAGISA: I’m sure that you have a beautiful singing voice…
REI: Beautiful… you say? [smiles] Well, while it is my first time at karaoke, I have knowledge more or less on the study of vocal music. Very well. As my first time at karaoke, I will grace your ears with my captivating voice!
NAGISA: Wow! I can’t wait! [claps]
REI: Let me choose a song first…
NAGISA: Before you do that, let’s choose drinks. Rei-chan, which do you want? [NAGISA flips through the electronic menu]
REI: T–This whole list is the drink selection?!
NAGISA: Yep. Let me see, I think I’ll have this “Youthful Bewitching Strawberry Cream Soda.” What about you, Rei-chan?
REI: U–Um, well…
NAGISA: Hurry up or we won’t have as much time left to sing!
REI: Just give me a second! (This seasonal limited edition “100% Hand-Squeezed Watermelon Juice” seems interesting… but maybe that’s too adventurous. Should I choose this Nakagawa family’s Specialty 60% Apple Pear Juice instead? But why is it only 60%? What happened to the other 40%?)
NAGISA: Rei-chan, you’re too slow! I’m going to order first! [NAGISA presses the remote control] Done!
REI: You can also use that remote control to order drinks?!
NAGISA: That’s right. I bet you want this “Good Ol’Fashioned Barley Tea” so I’ll order that for you and DONE!
REI: Wait, Nagisa-kun! Don’t choose for me! And of all the drinks, you chose normal barley tea!
NAGISA: But you looked like you were going to take your time. Never mind that, what do you want to sing? What kind of songs do you like, Rei-chan?
REI: I pretty much listen to any kind of music. I’m able to get by singing something that I’ve heard once before. Let’s see now… [REI looks through the electronic list] Uh, they’re all songs I’ve never heard of. “I Scream Most for Your Love?”
NAGISA: What is that, an old song?
REI: Come to think of it, I think my dad once listened to a song with this title on the radio… Maybe I’ll be able to sing it.
NAGISA: Sing it, sing it! I want to hear Rei-chan’s love song!
REI: Very well! Listen in ecstasy to my voice! [REI clicks and waits] …Huh? It’s not starting.
NAGISA: I wonder what’s wrong. Maybe the lines are jammed from too much traffic.
REI: Then I’ll put in the next song while we wait. Um… [REI looks through the list] Ah, I know this one! “Catch-You With Love and Courage”! It’s a classic! The one that goes “In the end, love and courage will bring victory!” [REI enters the song] …Hmm?
NAGISA: It’s still not starting…
REI: Then what about this one? “Very Very Happy Berry.” It sounds like a recent song. [click] “UnmiSTEAKen Unrequited Love.” [click] “Kiss Me Curray-zee.” [click] “You’re SO BAd So Spicy.”
NAGISA: …Eh? Soba’s so spicy? …Ah! Let me have a look at the remote control screen, Rei-chan!
REI: Maybe it’s broken? None of the songs are starting at all.
NAGISA: That’s not it, Rei-chan! You were choosing from the food menu!
REI: Eh?!
NAGISA: Ice cream with all the toppings, katsudon cooked with egg in soup stock, parfait with three different kinds of berries, steak, curry, and soba noodles!
REI: Why did they give their food such misleading names?! This means I ordered all of that food?!

x x x

NAGISA: It was a bit too much to eat, but they were all surprisingly delicious!
REI: My stomach is in pain… But more importantly, will we be able to afford all this?
NAGISA: Since we were going to buy swimsuits, I brought big bills with me, so we’re okay. Let’s pull ourselves back together and sing!
REI: You’re right. Okay… this time, I won’t make the same mistake again… [clicks] Hm? This is…
NAGISA: What’s the matter?
REI: Could this option here that says “Scoring” be…?
NAGISA: Yeah, that’s the option you can turn on to score how well you sang.
REI: This… This is the karaoke scoring program that I’ve heard so much about?! [clicks] Hey, it has a history of the group who used this room before us. They got pretty high points!
NAGISA: Wow, you’re right! 92 points… Mikoshiba Seijuurou…
REI: Eh? Mikoshiba… The one from Samezuka…?
NAGISA: It’s the captain!
REI: He used his real, full name in a place like this… Well, it’s definitely something he would do…
NAGISA: Then could this “Nitorin” underneath his name be Ai-chan?!
REI: 89 points! It looks like he sang a pop song from a Showa era idol group!
NAGISA: …Ooh! Then is this “RIN-RIN” underneath his name Rin-chan?!
REI: 75 points… He may be amazing at swimming, but he lost to his junior at singing…
NAGISA: Poor Rin-chan… I know, Rei-chan! Sing an awesome song and beat the captain and Ai-chan with a snap to win the top score!
REI: Very well! I will vindicate Rin-san’s honor and grab the title of number one for him! If I think about this logically, the best way to achieve a high score would be to choose a song that has the least singing range. Which means… let me see… [clicks] Not this song. Not this one either. Not this one… [REI keeps clicking]

x x x

[REI is still clicking through songs]
NAGISA: [sighs] Rei-chan, have you decided yet?
REI: Wait for a bit! I’m almost ready!
NAGISA: You look like you’re going to take some time with this, so can I sing first?
REI: Now wait a minute! I’m choosing my commemorative first song for my first time at karaoke, and you want to disregard that to sing yourself?! [still clicking] Ah! I know this song! The range is perfect for me, too! This is the one!
NAGISA: Then punch it in, quickly!
REI: Okay! Let me see now…… !!!
NAGISA: Hm? What’s wrong?
REI: What… is this option over here?
NAGISA: Oh, that’s a service that allows you to record the songs you sing onto a CD that you can take home.
REI: What?! I can put my song onto a CD?! So it’s like how we record our swimming practices onto video, we can use this CD to check our singing voices, right?! That’s magnificent! I definitely want to try that! [clicks] Hm? What is this option?
NAGISA: Oh, that’s the One-Man Harmony option.
REI: What?! You can even harmonize the entire song all on your own?! I must try that as well! [clicks] Huh? Wait… the One-Man Harmony option isn’t available for the song that I chose… That means I’ll have to choose another song… Um… [clicking] Hm? I–I found another new option! Voice Effect!
NAGISA: Rei-chan, are you done yet?
REI: Just a second! Um… Oh, but, Voice Effect does sound nice, but is it a good idea to process what is originally my beautiful, natural singing voice through machinery? Wouldn’t someone with a truly beautiful singing voice compete by using only his natural voice? Hm? This chorus option here just might help to excite the mood so that I can sing with my natural voice as if I were a real pro without having to resort to Voice Effect…!
[NAGISA yawns and falls over]
REI: Hey, Nagisa-kun! Don’t fall asleep on my lap! Nagisa-kun!!
[NAGISA snores]
REI: Oh, honestly, are you a child? [sighs and laughs] Well, we did practice until late yesterday and then had to wake up early this morning. [REI pats Nagisa’s forehead] But…
NAGISA: [mumbles] Rei-chan…
REI: [giggles] I’m not able to sing now with you this way, you know…

泳ぎ疲れて　揺られる電車の中
いろんな会話　つつみ込む夕間暮れ

いつの間にか　こんな日々が何気なくて
心地良くて
忘れてしまうけど　僕らはまだまだ

出会ってから季節はほんの　ひとつ変わっただけ
なのになんで、なのに妙に、安心したり
ここだなあってわかるから　集まれたんだ
同じ夏を選べたこと　奇跡みたいな午後に

魅せられたのは　必然だったように
みんなでいると　不思議なパワーうまれる

この輪の中　いる自分は前よりも
一日ごと
素直な感情で　あたらしい表情（かお）だね

風はもう次の色　運びはじめる
それがなんで、それが妙に、あたたかいから
いてくれてありがとうって　気づいてるんだ
お互いどこか、お互いさまに　元気づけられて

あこがれも　親しみも　全部あるよね
みんなとだからこそ　意味がある
見てみたい　次の景色

出会ってから季節はほんの　ひとつ変わっただけ
なのになんで、なのに妙に、安心したり
ここだなあってわかるから　集まれたんだ
同じ夏を選べたこと　奇跡みたいな午後に

【渚】僕の前では無理しなくていいよ！

TRANSLATION
Tired from swimming and leaning back inside the swaying train
We talk of many things as the evening twilight spreads around us

At some point, without celebration, days like these
Have become such pleasant routine
And it’s easy to forget but　for us still

Only a season has passed by since we first met
Yet somehow, yet strangely, I feel at ease
We gathered here because we knew that this is where we belong
This miraculous afternoon that is made possible from having chosen the same summer

As if it were inevitable that I would be enchanted upon first sight
Being with everyone brings me mysterious power

By being within this circle, I am more than before
For the entire day
Honest with my feelings, bringing new expression to my face

The wind is already beginning to bring in the next color
But somehow, but strangely, it fills me with warmth
I realize that I am grateful that you were there
Each of us needed each other for our reassurance

Admiration　and affection　were all there
Because we were with everyone　it had meaning
I want to try seeing　the next sight

Only a season has passed by since we first met
Yet somehow, yet strangely, I feel at ease
We gathered here because we knew that this is where we belong
This miraculous afternoon that is made possible from having chosen the same summer

【Nagisa】 Rei-chan, today sure was fun!
【Rei】 Yes… it was fun…
【Nagisa】 Rei-chan, did you fall asleep?
【Rei】 I wasn’t sleeping.
【Nagisa】 You don’t have to put up a face around me!
【Rei】 I said, I wasn’t sleeping!
【Nagisa】Let’s do our best in practice tomorrow too, okay?
【Rei】 Okay!

【Nagisa】 Rei-chan! Over here, over here!

【Nagisa】 Rei-chan, you’re soaked!
【Rei】 I won’t lose!
【Nagisa】 Hey, hey! Let’s swim over there next!
【Rei】 Very well!

The voltage of midsummer is at its greatest　in recorded history, a whole new record
It’s burning up at unbelievable degrees, both the sun　and us
As we fool around with all our might　as we pursue each other
This is great　Yes, it’s great　Now more　freely

To the entrance of this off-focus midsummer　we welcome you, climb on aboard
I’m growing excited by unbelievable degrees　So am I!
Because we face each other with our best efforts　because we can’t help enjoying ourselves
This is great　Yeah, it’s great!
Now, Fly High!!　Let’s be the first ones in

I get the sense that an extraordinary season is in store for us (yeah!!)
So let’s charge ourselves up, right here
The direction of the spraying waves reflected in our sparkling eyes (yeah!!)
Grabs our attention　With our most beloved friends　We’re here now on this special day

Given an unexpected invitation　Discovered and put into practice
Please be sure to take responsibility of me　“You just leave yourself to me!”
Driving it all into my head from A to Z　And swimming for real day in and out
Theories!　We learn aren’t everything　And we advance　forward

Surprising things still ought to keep happening to us　As a rule of thumb
Because reality is more amazing than any book!　“…I know what you mean.”
I approve of decisive first meetings　I have no objections
Everyone　of course　because they are here　are their natural selves

From now on, our feelings every day will always reach up to the blue sky (yeah!!)
Let’s go about our lives at high tension
If we jump in with the intent to pull everything forward with us (yeah!!)
We’ll drag them in with us　Our precious friends　and the best scene we’ve seen so far

I get the sense that an extraordinary season is in store for us (yeah!!)
So let’s charge ourselves up, right here
The direction of the spraying waves reflected in our sparkling eyes (yeah!!)
Grabs our attention　With our most beloved friends　We’re here now on this special day
Right here and now is the best scene

Track 3 of TV Anime FREE! Character Song Duet Single Vol.1

HARUKA: Are you ready, Makoto?
MAKOTO: Yeah. I’m ready for anything, Haru.
HARUKA: Then… let’s begin.
MAKOTO: Ah, wait! I forgot to put on an apron! [scrambles] I’m really sorry about this, Haru. I’ve never even attempted to cook anything before now.
HARUKA: It’s fine. But why the sudden request to teach you how to cook? Are you making food for someone?
MAKOTO: Yeah.
HARUKA: …Who?
MAKOTO: [laughs] Ran and Ren. Tomorrow is my parents’ marriage anniversary, so they’re going to spend the day at the hot springs. I have to watch over Ran and Ren while they’re away, and I can’t feed them takeout pizza for both lunch and dinner.
HARUKA: Then mackerel cooked in miso would be perfect for you. It’s so easy that even a beginner can do it.
MAKOTO: I put myself under your tutelage, Haru.
HARUKA: Sure. Then let’s begin. Do it the way I tell you to. First, we have to prep the fish. Put the mackerel fillets on top of the bamboo drainer.
MAKOTO: Like this?
HARUKA: Then put a paper towel on top. We’re going to douse them in hot water. The hot water is in the kettle.
MAKOTO: [takes kettle and pours] Like this?
HARUKA: Yeah. By simmering them in hot water first, it removes their fishy smell and prevents them from breaking apart while they’re cooking.
MAKOTO: Wow… this is all so professional!
HARUKA: It’s normal to know this much.
MAKOTO: [laughs] This reminds me of what we all talked about that one time, about who we’d choose for a boyfriend. You’d make a good husband when you get married, Haru.
HARUKA: I’m not interested in getting married.
MAKOTO: Yeah, if you got married, you won’t be able to say “I only swim freestyle” anymore.
HARUKA: Leave me alone. Quit talking and keep moving with the preparations. Next is the ginger root. Cut it in thin slices.
MAKOTO: Uhm… ginger root, ginger root… Like this? [starts cutting] Wah!
HARUKA: No, be careful! When you’re using the cutting knife, you’re supposed to curl your fingers on your support hand, remember?
MAKOTO: …?
HARUKA: …We took home-ec classes in school together, don’t you remember learning that? You’re supposed to curl your finger like this…
MAKOTO: Oh! Right!
HARUKA: Makoto… Don’t tell me you’ve never touched a knife since then.
MAKOTO: Eh? Uhm… well… I guess…?
HARUKA: [sighs] Try cutting it the way I just showed you. Go as slow as you need to.
MAKOTO: Okay. [slicing]
HARUKA: Yeah, that’s it.
MAKOTO: …I did it!
HARUKA: Okay then. Next, put soy sauce, mirin, cooking sake, sugar, and water in the frying pan, and bring it to a boil.
MAKOTO: Wait, hang on! Let’s see now… soy sauce, mirin… sake… sugar… and… [turns on the stove] Ack! It’s hot!
HARUKA: No, dummy! You’re too close to the flames!
MAKOTO: Sorry!
HARUKA: You didn’t burn yourself, did you?
MAKOTO: Yeah, I’m okay. Thanks.
HARUKA: Then next, line up the mackerel fillets without overlapping them in the frying pan so they cook evenly.
MAKOTO: Like this?
HARUKA: Yeah. That’s the only thing you did well.
MAKOTO: Be quiet.
HARUKA: Put the ginger root you sliced earlier into the frying pan too, and cover the pan with the lid. We’ll let it simmer for 5-10 minutes on medium heat.
MAKOTO: If this were a cooking show, they’d bring out the completed dish they’d made beforehand at this point.
HARUKA: Why is it you know that, and yet you don’t know how to use a cutting knife?
MAKOTO: Oh, be quiet.
HARUKA: Let’s move on. Once it’s done simmering, ladle some of the broth with miso, then distribute that around the mackerel back into the frying pan. This is when I also add in this as my secret ingredient.
MAKOTO: Mayonnaise?!
HARUKA: Putting in a tiny amount of it helps to bring out the flavor. You can use cheese or yogurt too, but I always use this.
MAKOTO: Wow… that part about you is really amazing. I never would have thought up something like that.
HARUKA: …If you cooked, you would…

HARUKA: Okay, it’s all done.
MAKOTO: Smells great! I hope it turned out well.
HARUKA: Makoto, open your mouth.
MAKOTO: Eh?
[HARUKA feeds MAKOTO]
HARUKA: Is it good?
MAKOTO: …!!?
HARUKA: What’s wrong?
MAKOTO: Haru, it’s kind of salty!
HARUKA: Eh? Could it be…? Where did you get the sugar from?
MAKOTO: Eh, from this container with the blue lid.
HARUKA: That’s salt.
MAKOTO: Eh?!
HARUKA: [sighs]
MAKOTO: What now? We can’t eat this… I guess we’ll have to throw it out…
HARUKA: No. This mackerel isn’t dead yet.
MAKOTO: Eh? What are you going to do, Haru?
HARUKA: First, break up the mackerel fillet into small pieces. Then we’ll fry them with eggs in the frying pan. Makoto, take out the eggs.
MAKOTO: O–Okay!
[HARUKA whisks the eggs]
HARUKA: After that, we’ll add in a serving of cold cooked rice and stir-fry it altogether.
MAKOTO: Such skilled movements…
HARUKA: No need for any more seasonings. With this, you now have mackerel-miso fried rice.
MAKOTO: Wow! Can I have a bite?
HARUKA: Sure.
MAKOTO: …It’s so good! It’s really good, Haru!
HARUKA: That’s great.
MAKOTO: This is going to make them so happy!
HARUKA: Only if you manage to pull it off properly tomorrow.
MAKOTO: That’s true. Haru.
HARUKA: Hm?
MAKOTO: Thanks.
HARUKA: …Y–Yeah.
MAKOTO: Hey, the frying pan! The food’s burning!
HARUKA: The crispy parts of the rice still taste good.
MAKOTO: But it’s turning black! Ah! Now the fried rice is on fire!
HARUKA: Calm down. You can use mayonnaise to extinguish the flames.
MAKOTO: You can’t do that, Haru! Just use the lid! The lid! Put the lid on the frying pan– [MAKOTO’s cell phone goes off] Who’s calling me at a time like this?! Hello? Rei? What? Tomorrow’s training menu? Sorry, now’s not the time– No, I don’t mean that, the fried rice–
