Come on in to this special pre-summer vacation event!
Happy Summer Girls-only Love-Love fortune consultation room
This is Yurie-sama's Happy Summer Girls-only Love-Love fortune consultation!
Line up, line up!
This was a great idea!
So then he asked me if I wanted to go on a trip with him this summer...
What do you think I should do?
When I was in his room, I saw all these perverted books hidden under his bed...
Do all guys like those kind of books?
I wonder...
For now, please hang this on your wall.
Men are wolves, take care
I don't want such lousy handwriting on my wall!
Matsuri!
Time for a break.
Well, her handwriting is kinda lousy...
We're finally doing good business... It'd be a shame if we lost all our hard work now.
Let's start the summer with special calligraphy training!
Huh? Special training?
Want me to ask Ken-chan to be your personal tutor?
She'll probably get so nervous her writing will end up even worse.
Then let's call it quits?
Yurie-sama's Happy Summer Love-Love fortune consultation room Open for business again!
There is someone I like.
But it's the first time I've fallen in love with someone...
I don't know what to do!
Falling in love with someone...
...isn't about it being the first or second time.
What's important are your feelings.
Talk about lacking experience...
Mitsue-chan!
So... what kind of person is he?
He's an upper classman from 2nd year.
From class 2.
Ninomiya Kenji from the calligraphy club.
What do you want?! If you don't let me through I'll be late!
Even if it's your turf, cut me some slack!
Please move aside, I'm in a hurry.
Oh well.
Here you go.
Tomorrow I'll bring you some bread.
How wonderful!
That's about what happened.
Was that story just now the reason she fell in love with him?
How nice...
So I came all this way but... he seems to have left to someplace else.
Ninomiya-kun's kinda restless.
It's called active!
Please tell me, Miss Goddess!
What should I do now?
How can I hook up with him?
There's really no need to ask Yurie, of all people, for advice on this...
Mitsue-chan!
Anyway, why not start by trying to figure out if what you're feeling is really love?
Do I need to be harrassed by a dog again?
Not like that, I mean...
You should think about what to do to increase your chances of meeting him.
That's it!
But... I'm just a young and plain first year student...
I'm in a different grade and class from him.
Then how about joining the calligraphy club he's in?
Yurie!
Great idea, Miss Goddess!
Of course, in a club it won't matter if I'm from a different year.
If I get into a club together with him, all kind of things could happen...
I want to do all kinds of fun things!
I'll join the club with you.
I'll join the club as well!
Wouldn't it be awkward if it were just the two of you?
If we go together, I'll be able to give you running advice...
Goddesses are...
Y-Yes?
...such wonderful people!
It's a Goddess' duty to aid those in need!
Yes, yes that's right.
Goddesses are great!
Go for it.
I'll do my best...
Sorry to make you come along.
It's no problem. I'm here for you.
But why the roof?
It'll be a problem if she enters a club all of a sudden. Our relationship consultation project did so well...
This is a great opportunity for her, and she'll get to work on her handwriting, so it'll be fine.
Calligraphy Club
This is the calligraphy club!?
Isn't the clubroom inside the building?
Umm...
Actually, he's up there because there is no clubroom...
That's how it is.
So wild...
Ken-chan!
He's not there?
But he left the classroom before us...
Ninomiya-kun!
Yurie!
What're you guys doing?
Sorry about that, it's hot and there's no air-conditioning here...
So you two are the two new members?
Yes!
Yes.
I'm so glad!
I've been alone all this time.
Umm...
It's Kiyomi! First year student Noto Kiyomi! You helped me this morning...
Sorry. I don't remember at all.
Besides calligraphy, I'm not very attentive and I have a bad memory.
Anyway, let's try to get along well!
Yes!
Okay!
Er...
Wait, er...
Hitotsubashi!
Yuri-
-san, isn't it?
It's "Yurie."
Ah, sorry. I really thought I had it this time.
It's okay. It was only slightly off.
Noto-san and Hitotsubashi-san, huh?
I'm Ninomiya Kenji, second year student!
We know!
Even though it's almost summer vacation, let's do our best!
Yes!
Our motto is, "The way of calligraphy it the way of the spirit"!
- Isn't it rather sweltering, in many ways?
I want some refreshment...
Clear your mind of mundane thoughts,
(They are shouting random Japanese proverbs)
and even the fire cools off!
There are insects that eat knotweed,
there's no accounting for tastes!
If the surroundings change,
How embarrassing...
the objects change!
But it's kinda...
Wait!
Even experts...
...can make mistakes!
...like that! Oh my, what am I thinking!
There is no cure...
...for stupidity!
What's up with that yell?
It's apparently to distinguish themselves from the sports club members.
Why are they jogging, anyway?
Who knows? Ken-chan has his own way of doing things.
Um... why did we just run like that?
You didn't like it?
That's not what I mean, I'm wondering about the reason...
Because, writing characters the normal way gets boring.
So I thought if I started writing right after running for awhile, I might be able to write different characters than usual.
You have to motivate yourself for your club activities sometimes.
But for us, today is the first time doing club activities.
Ah, that's right!
Sorry!
Well, you two are more exhausted than I thought you'd be, so let's call it a day.
It's your first day after all... you shouldn't push yourself.
See you tomorrow at the clubroom!
How does one write the many characters of calligraphy~
He's so wonderful!
Isn't he?
Why?!
Does this have anything to do with calligraphy?
There are a lot of old writings in this house.
In exchange for getting to see them, I'm helping around the house.
Granny is living alone, after all.
I truly appreciate your help.
She's not alone, though.
Peace
That's a nice character, isn't it?
It is.
Apparently, the old lady's husband drew it during the war.
He passed away, but I really would've liked to talk to him...
Miss Goddess?
What is it?
Er...
It's that dog!
What should we do? I've already eaten all of my lunch!
Me too.
Miss Goddess?
It's okay!
What's up?
He said you can pass.
But he always gets startled, so he'd like you to pass through more quietly from now.
Goddesses are really amazing, aren't they?
That's not true!
If you confront them in earnest, you can understand what's on their mind.
First Love
It's a lot easier to write with a roof above our head.
But, is it really okay? The ballet club might get upset...
They're out jogging right now, so it's fine. Now, let's write!
Okay!
Sempai, what should I write today?
Write whatever you like.
Is "friendship" okay?
If you want to write that, sure.
Writing words you feel like writing feels good, and the result will end up looking great.
This is no good.
Why did you do that? It was really well done!
But I didn't feel very excited about it.
I want to try to write some special characters.
Something that goes straight from the heart onto the paper. That's what I want to write.
Peace
I think I understand a little.
What kind of characters did you two want to write when you entered the club?
I wanted to write characters just like you do.
I wanted to improve my handwriting...
I see. If it's about the art of writing, I can teach you.
Traffic Safety
Sit up a little more straight, it'll give you more balance.
Careful, if you write too small it'll get stuffy.
Sea
100 Yen
Tama
Try writing something.
B-But... If I'm being stared at like that...
Nevermind me, imagine I'm not here.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
Why are you apologizing? They're great characters.
Dating
Sure, they aren't drawn very well, but I like characters like this.
Thank you!
Ninomiya-sempai!
Could you look at mine as well?
If you want to write characters just like me, you don't really need any advice.
We're about out of paper, I'm going to fetch some more.
Dating
Miss Goddess?
Y-Yes?
You're in love with him, aren't you?
Y-You're wrong! I'm just here to help you out!
Really? Goddesses really shouldn't lie!
I-It's not like that...
Ninomiya-sempai is quite a strange person, isn't he?
But he's honest.
That's why he can write those characters.
Such wonderful characters.
Sempai
I truly want to write characters like that as well.
Sunrise Ferry Purveyor to The Goddess
Mitsue-chan?
I lied.
Even though I'm a goddess.
What should I do...
I... don't think you can do anything about it.
I don't think that's something anybody can do anything about.
You should probably just do what you honestly want to do.
Thanks.
Calligraphy Club
Notice of Resignation
I like you Sempai
Those are nice characters...
But, I'm sorry.
Please accept them!
You have a responsibility to accept them!
It's only been a very, very short time, but thank you for taking care of me!
Ah... Er... Umm...
Miss Goddess?
It's your turn now!
I can't...
I'm still a goddess... and a middle-schooler...
I like you Sempai
I see. So you're quitting as well...
I'm sorry...
It's okay. It's merely back to how it used to be now.
I'm content with being on my own.
If you ever feel up to it again, give me a holler.
Okay.
As I was saying, despite it being summer vacation, it doesn't mean you can merrily play around.
Because it is a long vacation, it is a great opportunity to learn many things.
It is to further climb the stairs of adulthood, step by step.
Please-
What are we going to do over summer vacation?
Let's see... Special training, business, there're a lot of things to do.
But let's start off by playing around!
It's summer after all.
In favor.
Thanks, Mitsue-chan, Matsuri-chan.
