Nagi-kun, I'm going home to pick up my stuff.
I'll get some shopping done, too.

Jeez, that spooked me.
I can't believe she said that.
Your fate might change if I tell you.
Who is the person Amano-san is trying
to reach through social media?
Do I ask or not?
What should I do?
Here I am.
Is Erika-chan in?

I got the wrong building!
Aw, Erika-chan's still not home?
Probably not.
"Probably" not?
I guess I'll borrow your clothes, then.
Huh? Why?
I came here in the clothes Erika-chan got me,
but what's the point if she's not even here?
Just go home, then.
You got in a fight with
Erika-chan, didn't you?
No, I didn't.
Liar. That's why you're being weird.
Weird how?
What does it even have to do with you?
Plenty!
She's my precious big sister.
You messed things up, didn't you?
Just shut up and go home already.
Hurry up and spill it!
Ow, ow!
Fine! Fine! I'll tell you!
And?
I'm sorry, Sachi-sama!
Say it like you mean it!
So you don't know if you
should ask her or not, huh?
I wouldn't know.
Why were you so interested, then?
How could I have known that I wouldn't know?
I was an idiot for telling Sachi.
Many in the Shibuya area
have raised similar concerns.
Holy crap, the TV's huge.
We were able to talk to a few of them
You can see her pores.
How's the house, anyway?
Apparently, it's getting old or something.
Construction's going to take a while longer.
Our rental right now is really small.
Mom's as rowdy as ever,
and Dad snores so loud.
Yeah?
And what about you?
Huh?
Your studying, I mean.
You'd better not be slacking
just because I'm not there.
I-I'm studying.
You have entry exams next year.
Never mind me, Onii.
It sounds like you've got it rough.
I heard Erika-chan's
attending your school, too.
I guess.
You could say the personal
relationships are kinda complicated.
I bet it's something stupid again.
You really suck at keeping friends, Onii.
I wonder how we're so different,
even though we're siblings.
Actually, we aren't even siblings.
Though, you know, talking to you
reminds me of the vibe at home.
Okay, I've decided.
I'm going to ask her.
No point in sitting here moping!
Yeah.
Umino Family Wisdom:
buck up and face people head-on.
Umino Family wisdom:

Now that that's settled,
I think I'll make some tonkatsu!
Erika-chan said she can't
keep eating fried food.
Tonkatsu is battle food, isn't it?
It's a battle?
Flour
Sachi, wanna stay for dinner?
Huh?
I'm home.
Welcome home.
Did you see Erika-chan?
She wasn't home.
Yeah?
You can't keep imposing, though.
Those two need this time
to get to know each other.
New Math
I know that.
Do you really?
Huh?
What are you doing?
Leaving home.
Sachi! What?!
Leaving home why?
Where are you going?
Where do you think?
To Onii's and Erika-chan's place, obviously.
I'm home.
Sheesh, I bought way too much.
Hey, Sachi-chan, you're here.
Hey.
Sachi left home?!
That's right.
She started packing as soon as she got home.
Sachi!
Was it me?!
Was it my loud snoring?!
I don't get it.
Why, exactly?
I have no idea.
Or is it
because I spend so long on the john?!
Just convince her to come home by tomorrow.
All right.

Let's see
Toothbrush, toiletries
Pillow, pajamas, and supplies for studying.
I didn't want my uniform to get
wrinkled, so I wore it here.
Also, my cosmetics and my Sobassyi plush.
Wow. You brought a lot.
Yeah. I want to live here.
Really? That's great!
You can't do that.
You can stay the night because it's late,
but you're going home tomorrow.
No.
Why?
Why do you get to decide, anyway?
It's not your business.
Yes, it is.
This place was prepared for me and Amano-san.
It's not for you!
Then you don't get to decide, either, do you?
Hey, just get lost already! Go home!
Don't "hey" me!
Come on, you two.
I'll ask Dad for you.
So y'know
Amano-san
What?
I get to decide, too, don't I?
Y-Yeah, but
I love you, Erika-chan.
I love you, too.
There, there.
So why did you leave home, anyway?
I know. You're in your rebellious phase, right?
I'm not.
She's been in her rebellious
phase since third grade.
I wanted help with schoolwork.
You know how my place is a mess right now?
We're poor enough as it is,
and now we don't have any income.
I want to go to a good school.
Y-You're such a good girl, Sachi-chan.
A-Am I?
What's gotten into you?
You never talked like this before.
I'm just saying what you always say.
Well, yeah, but
Okay, fine.
Go sleep in my room, then, brat.
I don't want to sleep in your room!
Right?
You want to be in my room, right?
No, no way.
You talk in your sleep too much.
I can't let you cause trouble for Amano-san.
No way, no way, no way!
You grind your teeth so loud,
it's like a bomb going off.
It doesn't sound like a bomb!
What's your problem all of a sudden?
We were sleeping in the same room with
only a curtain between us this whole time!
That's the problem to begin with, obviously!
What does a runaway child
know about what's "obvious"?
Just sleep in my room tonight.
Otherwise you can take the sofa!
Murgh
Now, now
Anyway, Sachi-chan, have you had dinner yet?
Huh? Not yet.
I haven't, either.
Nagi-kun, what's for dinner tonight?
Tonkatsu.
Again?
I can't keep having fried food.
I mean, I guess
I don't want anything you made.
Why not?!
I've been eating your cooking forever.
I might as well have something fancy
if I'm at a rich person's house, right?
Do you really think you can get
away with being so selfish?
Right, Amano-san?
I kinda get it.
Amano-san?!
Sachi-chan, wanna come study in my room?
Okay.
Just so you know, I'm the only
person here who can help you study.
I don't care. I'm having Erika-chan help me.
Seriously
I'll take care of this.
Miss Erika will get you up to speed.
You're so cute!
And you changed so fast.
Don't just stand there.
Lunch duty will make us
some fancy night snacks.
Who are you implying is on lunch duty?!
Meanwhile, we begin studying!
Yes, ma'am.
Damn it, Sachi
What's gotten into her?
I mean, she's my actual sister.
Hang on, is Sachi
trying to make up for the fifteen
years she never got to spend with her?
So
Why did you come here, Sachi-chan?
Oh, I'm not questioning you or
hoping you'll leave or anything.
But it seems like you have a good reason.
I won't lie. I ran away from home once, too.
Really? Why?
Family's complicated, you know?
Especially with my dad
being as pushy as he is.
I see.
That day
That day, when you first came over
I was at the back of the restaurant.
I thought it was all over.
Was he going to marry you?
Would he never come back home?
I wanted
I wanted a little more time with Onii-chan.
I'm sorry.
I think I'll go home.
Nah.
You're welcome to stay.
Jeez
So that's what this was all about?
Wait for me!
Onii-chan!
Wait for me!
Why do you keep going so far ahead?
Don't leave me!
Come on.
I'm so full.
Oh, can I have that?
Sure.
About Sachi
I'll help her study.
So she can stay here for a while.
What?! Are you crazy?
Dad's crying!
Sachi! Why?!
Well, tell him it's time to stop
clinging to his daughter so much.
Sachi! Sachi!
My hand slipped!
How much? How much is this plate worth?
Is this really going to work out?
Sachi's Room
No Oniis allowed!
My neck
Morning.
Something smells nice.
Morning, you two.
You're up early on a weekend, Sachi-chan.
Yeah.
It's a habit.
I made breakfast, by the way.
You eat this much in the morning?!
We do in the Umino household.
Seriously?
It's the least I could do,
since I'm staying here.
Yay!
I was thinking I should bring my
helper in, so this is perfect.
I thought you were going to be independent.
Oh, man, I'm so excited for
my sister's home cooking.
I need to watch my weight,
though, or this'll kill me.
I totally lost my chance to ask about
the school trip conversation, though.
Amano-san's being her usual self,
like nothing ever happened.
I know.
Let's all go shopping together.
Now that Sachi-chan's going to live with us,
we're going to need more daily necessities.
Rice bowls and chopsticks and all that.
It feels wrong to make her use guest stuff.
Really?
No way.
It's our day off. Why wouldn't
we use the time to study?
I'll start studying tomorrow.
You two go, then.
I want to study to place first
again on the next exam.
Okay.
You can keep sleeping on the sofa, then.
That's true. There aren't enough blankets.
Well
Here we go.
Okay.
Nice!
Let's take one together.
Did you see them?
I bet they're celebrities.
They were both super cute.
I know!
Hey, Sachi-chan, how many times
have you been hit on so far?
Um
Since I got into middle school? Uh
I've lost count.
What?!
Oh, you.
It sucks having to turn them down, right?
I feel you.
Come to think of it, in middle school
Your sister's pretty cute, huh, Umino-kun?
You don't look alike, either.
Can I come over sometime?
Why?
Introduce me to your mom.
Why?
So that's why the jocks
were always talking to me.
Wait They weren't the only ones, though.
So the old guys who come
to the shop all the time
You should marry my son.
Whatever.
You guys are too drunk.
S-Seriously? Damn it, Sachi
When Onii-chan's making that face,
it's because he's fantasizing.
So that's what that face is.
So creepy.
I think that should do it.
W-We're actually buying this?
Okay, Nagi-kun, could you pay for that?
Huh?! What about the bowls and blankets?!
They didn't have bowls here,
so I bought one online.
And Sachi-chan can sleep next to me. Right?
P-Please and thank you.
This is all kinds of confusing.
That'll be 3,578 yen.
Three—
I'm wasting my precious weekend
and money on this junk!
Thank you very much.
And why is it so huge?
And they're gone!
Hey, this looks bad.
Poor things
I heard it's two girls.
Maybe we should call the cops.
No
Sorry, please
Let me through!
It's because I wasn't keeping an eye on them.
Let me through!
They're my fiancée and sister!
Nagi-kun?
Onii?
Huh?!
Why are you two having a chill café break?!
I thought you got caught in an incident!
I guess you could call it an incident.
A crowd just formed.
Look! That's definitely Amano Erika!
Is it okay to take a picture?
How cute!
Her friend's cute, too.
What's his problem?
What a loser.
I'm glad you're here, though.
Let's go home, Nagi-kun.
Come on, Onii. Hurry up.
Huh?! He's with them?!
Did he just say "fiancée"?
Seriously?
Hang on a second
Let's go.
Come on, Onii.
Am I actually living with two sisters
who are kind of a big deal?!
Done!
Huh
All that stuff was for
a hand-made photo board?
Yeah.
Now that Sachi-chan's here, we have to
be positive about us living together.
A little to the right, Sachi-chan.
Here?
Perfect.
Here we go.
Come on, Nagi-kun, hurry up.
Huh?
It's taking the picture.
Sachi-chan
joined us!
You're so blurry, Nagi-kun.
Onii's always had lousy timing.
He always has his eyes closed
when we take family photos.
That sounds like him!
Sachi and Amano-san have
been joined at the hip all day.
I never got a chance to talk.
Is Amano-san going to pretend
all that never happened?
I
Erika's and Sachi's Room
No, Erika-chan
Sobassyi isn't edible, even if you're rich.
The bath's all yours, Nagi-kun.
What?
Um, about the field trip
Yeah?
Ever since I met you and Segawa-san,
and especially since Sachi moved in
I realized
Everyone's got their problems,
even if they don't tell people.
I don't want to pry just
to satisfy my curiosity,
and carry on without even
being prepared to accept it.
But I don't think it's right to
pretend we forgot about it all, either.
So I want you to wait until I'm prepared.
In other words
I'm not ready yet.
H-How could you laugh?!
I mean, you say that now?
The timing's a bit weird, don't you think?
Well, with Sachi leaving home
and us going shopping and stuff,
I didn't have a chance to bring it up.
Is it that funny to you?!
Sorry.
That's so like you, though.
Sachi-chan
joined us!
Let me know when you're ready.
Nagi-kun, I'm going home to pick up my stuff.
I'll get some shopping done, too.
Nagi-kun,

Let's go home, Nagi-kun.
Come on, Onii. Hurry up.
Huh?! He's with them?!
Did he just say "fiancée"?
Seriously?
Hang on a second
Let's go.
Come on, Onii.
Am I actually living with two sisters
who are kind of a big deal?!
Done!
Huh
All that stuff was for
a hand-made photo board?
Yeah.
Now that Sachi-chan's here, we have to
be positive about us living together.
A little to the right, Sachi-chan.
Here?
Perfect.
Here we go.
Come on, Nagi-kun, hurry up.
Huh?
It's taking the picture.
Sachi-chan
joined us!
You're so blurry, Nagi-kun.
Onii's always had lousy timing.
He always has his eyes closed
when we take family photos.
That sounds like him!
Sachi and Amano-san have
been joined at the hip all day.
I never got a chance to talk.
Is Amano-san going to pretend
all that never happened?
I
Erika's and Sachi's Room
No, Erika-chan
Sobassyi isn't edible, even if you're rich.
The bath's all yours, Nagi-kun.
What?
Um, about the field trip
Yeah?
Ever since I met you and Segawa-san,
and especially since Sachi moved in
I realized
Everyone's got their problems,
even if they don't tell people.
I don't want to pry just
to satisfy my curiosity,
and carry on without even
being prepared to accept it.
But I don't think it's right to
pretend we forgot about it all, either.
So I want you to wait until I'm prepared.
In other words
I'm not ready yet.
H-How could you laugh?!
I mean, you say that now?
The timing's a bit weird, don't you think?
Well, with Sachi leaving home
and us going shopping and stuff,
I didn't have a chance to bring it up.
Is it that funny to you?!
Sorry.
That's so like you, though.
Sachi-chan
joined us!
Let me know when you're ready.
