Itazura Na Kiss Vol.1, P.53-98
P.53
Kotoko: I'm eating breakfast with Irie-kun.
Kotoko: How strange. 
P.54
Kotoko: I'm eating nattou and drinking miso soup at the same table as the 
Irie-kun I liked.
Mrs. Irie: [Naoki, don't read a newspaper at the table]
Kotoko: It's rather amazing.
Mr. Irie: Well, Kotoko-chan.
Mr. Irie: Did you sleep well last night?
Kotoko: Ah, y-yes.
Mr. Irie: Ai-chan is still asleep, isn't he?
Kotoko: Y-yeah, sorry.
Mr. Irie: Not at all. I know Ai-chan is up late often due to his work as a cook.
Naoki: I'm finished.
(he gets up)
Mrs. Irie: My, look at the time.
Kotoko: Ah!
Mrs. Irie: Kotoko-chan, why don't you go to school with Naoki. You're going to 
the same place after all.
Kotoko: O-ok. 
P.55
(Yuuki tries to rush away from the table)
Yuuki: I'm finished too.
Mrs. Irie: There's still time before you have to go, Yuuki. Finish your 
breakfast.
Mrs. Irie: He always wants to do everything with his older brother.
(she grabs Yuuki)
Mrs. Irie: Naoki, be sure to teach Kotoko the route to school.
Mrs. Irie: (to Yuuki) [don't get in the way]
Yuuki: [I wanna go!]
Mrs. Irie: Have a nice day!
Kotoko: S-see you all later!
(Naoki is already out the door)
(Kotoko stares at his back as they walk silently down the street)
Kotoko: This is seriously uncomfortable.
Kotoko: If I'd known this was going to happen I never would've given him that 
letter...
Naoki: Hey. 
P.56
Kotoko: Y-yes?
Naoki: Make sure you learn the route this time. I don't want you following me 
around any more than necessary.
Naoki: Naturally I expect you to not tell anyone that we're living together.
Naoki: I don't want any weird rumors spreading around about me on your account.
Kotoko: N-no problem!
Naoki: Don't talk to me at school either.
Kotoko: .........!
Kotoko: That jerk!
(at the train station)
announcer: Attention platform 5, the doors of the train heading for ____ are now 
closing. 
P.57
announcer: We're very sorry about the crowding today, ladies and gentlemen--
(the train passengers are packed like sardines and can barely move)
Kotoko: G-geez, I've never been in a rush like this before.
Kotoko: [owow]
Kotoko: I'm just barely hanging on to my school bag.
Kotoko: D-dammit, Irie-kun has such a cool expression on his face.
Kotoko: It must be nice to be so damn regal! [he... he's even reading a book!]
Kotoko: He could at least look at little phased by all this...
Kotoko: Eh?
Kotoko: A p...pervert!!
Kotoko: S...someone's hand is on my butt...!
Kotoko: Wh-what do I do?
Kotoko: I can't get away from the hand...! 
P.58
Kotoko: H...help me, Irie-kun.
Kotoko: Look this way.
Kotoko: Irie-kun.
(he looks over at her)
Kotoko: Te...telepathy. [it must be because of his 200 IQ]
Kotoko: Irie-kun!
Kotoko: Help me!
(Naoki sees Kotoko wiggling around in the crowd)
Kotoko: {struggle}
Kotoko: It... it's a pervert! 
P.59
Kotoko: Help me...!
(he goes back to reading his book)
Kotoko: Huh??
Kotoko: He... he ignored me...?
Kotoko: But this is an emergency situation.
Kotoko: No matter how he feels about me, he should understand. [his IQ is 200 
and all]
Kotoko: A... a young girl shouldn't be left in this kind of predicament. 
P.60
Kotoko: I... I can't believe him!
(at the next station)
Kotoko: W...wait a second!
Naoki: Didn't I tell you not to talk to me?
Kotoko: I can't stay silent!
Kotoko: Y-you knew about the awful situation I was in, didn't you??
Kotoko: Y...you knew that I was being harrassed by a pervert!
Naoki: Oh, I see. 
P.61
Kotoko: Wh-why didn't you help me...??
Naoki: It's not as if I could move in a crowd like that.
Naoki: And it's not even that big of a deal anyway.
Kotoko: What?!
Naoki: Plus I was in the middle of something
Naoki: Don't get the wrong idea.
Naoki: You're too hung up on your own importance.
Naoki: Seeya. We're almost at school.
Naoki: I'm going on ahead.
Kotoko: I...ice.
Kotoko: He's got ice running through his veins! 
P.62
Kotoko: Th...that jerk.
Satomi: Ahhh, Kotoko!
Satomi: You have to come to school by train now?
Kotoko: That jerk.
(in the F-gumi classroom)
teacher: As you probably guessed, the midterm covers all the material up to 
P.56.
students: [huhhh?]
teacher: Everyone that we've done in class will be on it. If you listen 
carefully it shouldn't be to hard.
students: [no wayyy]
(the school bell rings)
{kiin koon}
(Kotoko and her friends stare at the test schedule posted on the wall. Eight 
tests in three days, ouch.)
Jinko: Ahh, this midterm is going to suck.
Satomi: I'm just gonna give up this time too.
Kin: If I fail again I'm gonna be screwed. 
P.63
(Kotoko is scribbling the test schedule into her notebook vigorously)
Kin: You're really serious about this, Kotoko-chan. [wow, look at her go]
Jinko: You'll be happier if you just give in to failure.
Kotoko: I'm going to do it this time.
Kin: Heh?
Kotoko: I'm going to put that Irie Naoki in his place!
(everyone in hearing distance starts laughing)
Kin: [haaaa] That was a good one! [my stomach is in knots!]
Jinko: Watch out, Kotoko-chan. Even if it's a joke, god will get angry at you if 
you say something like that! 
P.64
Kotoko: I'm serious.
(Satomi feels Kotoko's forehead)
Satomi: Are you alright??
Satomi: [maybe she's lost it]
Kin: You do know who you're going up against, right? That guy is the top genius 
student in Tokyo! [maybe in the country!]
Kotoko: W...well... I'm not saying that I'm going to beat his score or anything.
Kotoko: [some support I'm getting here]
Kotoko: I'm just going to try to get on the bulletin board.
Jinko: Kotoko! The bulletin only shows the top 100 scores in the entire 
highschool! [you know that right?]
Kin: An F-gumi student has never gotten onto the board in the history of this 
school!
Kotoko: Well, I'll just have to change history then.
Kin: [you've lost it, Kotoko!]
Kotoko: I-I'm going to do it! 
P.65
Kotoko: I-I know that I can never exactly defeat him.
(Kotoko pictures Naoki saying "one should know their own position")
Kotoko: B-but I at least want to have my name printed on the same piece of 
paper.
(at night, Kotoko is bent over a book in her new room) 
P.66
(Kotoko stares at the book in frustration)
Kotoko: H...how the hell am I supposed to do this stuff??
Kotoko: I... I don't get it at all!
Kotoko: I... I don't even know where to begin.
Kotoko: Sigh, I really am a moron.
Kotoko: I bet he's over there right now doing this stuff effortlessly.
{knock knock}
Kotoko: Y...yes?
Kotoko: {b-bump}
(Mrs. Irie appears with a tray of food)
Mrs. Irie: You're still up, Kotoko-chan? Studying must be tough. I brought you 
some snacks.
Kotoko: Wow, thank you.
Mrs. Irie: Ah, this is nice. It makes me feel very motherly.
Kotoko: Eh? 
P.67
Mrs. Irie: Naoki never studies, so I've never had the opportunity to make snacks 
for him like this.
Mrs. Irie: This new atmosphere is so nice.
Kotoko: [huh...?]
Mrs. Irie: This is what I've been longing for.
Kotoko: D-did you just say... that Naoki-kun never studies...?? [e...even though 
he's number one...]
Mrs. Irie: That's right. I guess he's pretty amazing. [but it doesn't make him 
very cute]
Kotoko: Th-then, right now...
Mrs. Irie: He went to bed a long time ago.
Kotoko: He... really is
Kotoko: a genius. 
P.68
Kotoko: I-I've lost a bit of my steam.
Mrs. Irie: Why don't you ask Naoki to help you with the parts you don't 
understand?
Kotoko: If only I could...
Mrs. Irie: Say Kotoko-chan, would you like to take a short break?
Kotoko: Uh, sure.
Mrs. Irie: I'll show you something interesting.
Mrs. Irie: I'll be right back.
(Mrs. Irie holds up a photo album)
Mrs. Irie: Tadaa.
(she and Kotoko sit down on a couch together)
Kotoko: That album looks pretty old... Oh, c-could it be pictures of 
Naoki-kun...?
Mrs. Irie: [heheh] Why don't you take a look and see. 
P.69
Kotoko: Waa, I really wanna see this.
Kotoko: {excitement}
Mrs. Irie: I've really wanted to show this to you.
Kotoko: I wonder what Irie-kun looked like as a little kid?
Kotoko: Huh......?
(the pictures are all of a little girl at various ages)
Kotoko: Er... Th-this girl is... [who?]
Kotoko: I didn't think that Naoki-kun had an older sister. They sure do like 
alike though.
Mrs. Irie: That's Naoki. 
P.70
Kotoko: Wha-WHAH?? B-but, how on earth?
Mrs. Irie: I know, he looked so cute.
Mrs. Irie: I really, really wanted a girl.
Mrs. Irie: When I was pregnant I convinced myself that I would give birth to 
one.
Mrs. Irie: Because of that I only bought girls clothes in preparation,
Mrs. Irie: and then it was a big shock when the baby turned out to be a boy.
Mrs. Irie: By the time it came to buy new clothes, I had already grown so fond 
of dressing Naoki as a girl that I just kept on doing it.
Mrs. Irie: It wasn't until he finally refused flat-out that he got to dress like 
a boy.
(Kotoko tries to suppress her laughter)
Kotoko: [mmph]
Mrs. Irie: Naoki has always held a grudge over this.
Mrs. Irie: I wonder if that's why he's become such a cold person. 
P.71
Mrs. Irie: I've never told this to anyone besides you, Kotoko-chan. Even Yuuki 
doesn't know.
Mrs. Irie: Naoki would be very upset to have this get around, so let's just keep 
it a secret between us. [heehee]
Kotoko: Of-of course.
(Kotoko claps her hands together and smiles evily)
(next morning, at breakfast)
(Yuuki runs down the stairs)
Yuuki: Good morning, brother!
Naoki: Uhuh.
(Kotoko is very smiley-smiley)
Kotoko: Good morning! 
P.72
Naoki: ...? Morning.
(Kotoko holds her hands over her mouth)
Kotoko: Ahhhhh, it's so hard... to keep from laughing.
Naoki: ...
(at school)
Kin: Hey, Kotoko, do you wanna hang out after school?
Kotoko: Ah, I can't. I have to study.
Kin: Seriously?
Kin: By the way, where are you living these days? [I don't even know where to 
call you]
Kotoko: Ah, um, at a friend of my dad's.
Kin: Where is the house?
Kotoko: Eh, ah... um, w-well. 
P.73
Kotoko: It's in the S-Setagaya area.
Satomi: No way! How fancy! Where in Setagaya??
Kotoko: I-I'm not really sure.
Kin: That's no help. [how're we supposed to come visit?]
Kotoko: S-sorry, eheheh.
Kotoko: It's probably best to keep it a secret.
voice: Aihara-san.
(everyone is stunned to see Irie Naoki) 
P.74
student: [it's Irie-kun!]
student: [no way! kyaa!]
student: [uwaa]
student: [he's asking for Kotoko!]
student: [it's Irie-kun from A-gumi!]
Jinko: Ko-Kotoko! Wh-what is this??
Jinko: D-don't tell me he changed his mind and decided he wants to date you!
Satomi: [ehh?? w-wow!]
Kin: (to Naoki) Hey you! Even if you're in love with Kotoko now, it's too late!
Naoki: Don't be stupid. Aihara-san, come with me for a moment, and bring your 
school bag.
Kin: ["don't be stupid"?]
Jinko: [then what could it be?]
(outside)
Kotoko: Wh-what is it? [why did you want me to bring my bag?] 
P.75
(Naoki holds up a frilly bento with a teddy-bear pattern on it. "Bento" = lunch 
box.)
Naoki: My mother mixed up our lunches this morning.
Kotoko: B-bento?
(she pulls out a very plain-looking one with Naoki written across it)
Kotoko: Ah, you're right.
(Kotoko's friends are watching from behind a corner)
Jinko: It-it looks like they're exchanging something.
Kin: [n-no way]
Satomi: Ahh, I can't hear what they're saying.
Naoki: There have been so many inconveniences lately. Why do we have to be going 
to the same school??
(Kotoko looks annoyed for a moment, but then an evil smile spreads across her 
face)
Kotoko: It's so true, Irie-kun. You might even find yourself wearing my uniform 
by mistake.
Naoki: Huh?
Naoki: Why would I wear your uniform? 
P.76
Kotoko: Well because, you were raised wearing a skirt when you were little.
(she holds up a girly, childhood photograph of him)
Kotoko: You were soo cute, Irie-kun!
Naoki: [UWAAAA] Wh-why do you have that?! 
P.77
Naoki: Wh-where did you get it from??
Kotoko: Your mother gave me this one to keep.
Kotoko: Although I did get to see a lot of other ones.
Naoki: Wh-what the hell is my mother thinking?!
Naoki: Anyway, hand it over!
Kotoko: No way.
Naoki: Wh...what did you say??
Kotoko: Well, you've been so mean to me all this time. [now it's my turn]
Kotoko: It's nice to see that even geniuses have weak-points. 
P.78
(Naoki makes a lunge for the picture)
Naoki: Give it to me!
(Kotoko jumps back and sticks her tongue out at him)
Naoki: Are-are you planning on blackmailing me or something?!
Kotoko: I don't mind giving it back,
Kotoko: but
Kotoko: in return you have to tutor me for the next week until midterms.
Naoki: ............ M-me?
Naoki: Tutor you?
Kotoko: That's right.
Kotoko: How about this? You get me in the top 100,
Kotoko: and I'll give the picture to you. 
P.79
Naoki: I... I refuse!
Naoki: What you're asking for is impossible!
Kotoko: If that's the case, then I'll just have to copy this photo and spread it 
around school...
Naoki: Waaa!
Naoki: ............ Fine.
Naoki: I'll tutor you at night for one week.
(Kotoko claps her hands together in delight)
Kotoko: [kyaaaa]
Naoki: But I make no guarantees. 
P.80
Naoki: The top 100 is almost always only students from the A-gumi and B-gumi 
sections.
Naoki: Occasionally a student from C or even D-gumi might appear on the list, 
but for an F-gumi student like yourself it would take a miracle.
Kotoko: ...... Yeah... I know. [but still]
Naoki: I'll see you this evening.
(Naoki walks away)
Kin: [uohh!] Kotoko, what were you doing with that teacher's pet??
Kotoko: Ah!
Satomi: What did you two talk about?
Kotoko: Hehe, nothing much.
Kotoko: Hooray, I'm going to study hard! 
P.81
(dinner, at the Irie home)
father: Wow, this food is so yummy, maam!
father: [and that's coming from an expert cook]
Mrs. Irie: Oh, I'm thrilled!
Mr. Irie: Hey Ai-chan, don't flatter her too much! [she'll become vain]
Mr. Irie: [wahaha]
Mrs. Irie: [really dear]
Mrs. Irie: [seconds anyone?]
Mr. Irie: [no thanks, honey]
Mrs. Irie: Kotoko-chan, I'll make study snacks for you again tonight. What would 
you like? [teehee]
Naoki: Actually mother,
Naoki: could you make enough for two tonight?
Naoki's family: [eh?]
Mrs. Irie: Eh......? Did you say for two?
Mrs. Irie: [don't tell me] You're planning... on studying... too?
Naoki: More or less. 
P.82
Mrs. Irie: [that's incredible!]
Mrs. Irie: [Kotoko-chan, I'm so impressed that you were able to make Naoki study 
for a test!]
Kotoko: [not at all]
Naoki: Hey! Don't compliment her over it!
Yuuki: Brother, I-I think I'll try studying too.
Naoki: Don't bother!
Naoki: (to Kotoko) We're starting now!
Kotoko: O-okay!
Yuuki: ......
Mrs. Irie: [do your best, Kotoko-chan!]
(in Kotoko's room)
Naoki: Well, where should we start today?
Naoki: What's your weakest subject?
Kotoko: M-math... I guess.
Kotoko: Uh oh. Now that I'm alone with him, I'm feeling a little... nervous.
Naoki: Then let's focus on that for now.
Kotoko: {b-bump b-bump]
Kotoko: The unrequited feeling is still there. 
P.83
Naoki: What area specifically do you have to know?
Kotoko: Huh? Isn't it the same as your class?
Naoki: I wouldn't know.
Kotoko: ... Page 40.
Naoki: Hmmm, Ok, this will be on the test, and this, and this...
(Naoki circles several parts of the page)
Kotoko: Eh? [h-how do you know?]
Naoki: Because these are the main points.
Kotoko: H...how do you study... Irie-kun?
Naoki: I read or listen to something once and then it's memorized.
Kotoko: [hyee]
Naoki: I'll write a few sample questions for you.
Kotoko: He-he's behaving just like a teacher.
Kotoko: Maybe he's even smarter than they are...
Naoki: Now go ahead and give them a shot.
Naoki: If you can do these you should be able to get about 80%.
(Kotoko stares at the page in horror)
Kotoko: U-uhyaa. 
P.84
(the second hand of the clock makes a full rotation, while Naoki waits for 
Kotoko to finish the problem)
Naoki: Aren't you done yet?!
Naoki: (snatching the book away from her) Anyway, I'll take a look at what 
you've done so far!
(Naoki stares at the notebook in disbelief)
Naoki: ............
Kotoko: I-I guess it's... incorrect?
Naoki: How did you get this? Where's the formula...?
Kotoko: Formula? What's that?
Naoki: Just what do you spend your time doing during class??
Naoki: I'd like to take a look at the inside of your head! 
P.85
Naoki: This formula is very fundamental to doing these problems.
Naoki: Now listen to me carefully!
Kotoko: O-ok.
Naoki: You're not going to sleep until you understand this.
Kotoko: O-ok.
(he explains for what seems like hours)
Kotoko: Then... the answer is, x = 72?
Naoki: Yeah, that's correct. 
P.86
Kotoko: Kyaaa! I'm so happy! [so happy!] [I actually got it!]
Naoki: There's still 9 problems left.
Kotoko: Still, still--
{flash}
(Naoki's mother appears behind the two with a camera)
Mrs. Irie: Oh, don't mind me!
Mrs. Irie: I didn't mean to interrupt.
Naoki: Wha-what are you doing?!
Mrs. Irie: But, it was such a Kodak moment that I just had to preserve it 
forever.
Mrs. Irie: You two make such a nice couple.
Mrs. Irie: You should get married.
Naoki: D-don't be ridiculous!!
Mrs. Irie: Ok, ok. I'll bring you some snacks later anyway.
Naoki: Ok, l-let's continue.
Kotoko: Uh, yeah. 
P.87
(at school)
Kotoko: {yawwn...}
classmate: You seem really tired these days, Kotoko.
Kotoko: Uhuh, it's from studying.
Kin: This isn't good, Kotoko. You've been mega weird lately. It's because of 
that new house you're living in, right?
Kotoko: Huh?
Kin: I don't understand. Are they mistreating you there?
Kotoko: Heh?
Kin: You poor thing. I bet they've turned you into a slave and make you do all 
the housework.
Kin: But not wanting to worry us, you claim it's because you're studying.
Kin: I'm gonna go to that house and...
Kin: ... Huh? Ko-Kotoko?
(she's disappeared)
Jinko: She said she was going to go the library then go home.
Kin: [hmm, she's seriously being weird]
(night)
Naoki: ...... Now try translating this part.
Kotoko: Uh... um, I guess it's "that seems like that over there..."
Naoki: That's incorrect! 
P.88
Naoki: You got the meaning "it seems that" right though.
Naoki: Try it again.
Kotoko: O-ok.
(Kotoko works in her notebook)
Kotoko: I... I did it!
Kotoko: (turning to Naoki) I finished...!
(Naoki is deep in slumber with his head on the desk)
Naoki: {zzzzz}
Kotoko: He's asleep.
Kotoko: This week we've almost pulled all-nighters several times.
Kotoko: But I've been able to do a lot of things I didn't think I was capable 
of... 
P.89
(Kotoko puts her chin on her arms and stares at Naoki)
Kotoko: When I look at him like this,
Kotoko: he looks like just a normal goodlooking guy........
{knock knock}
Mrs. Irie: I've brought munchies... Ah...
Mrs. Irie: Oh-oh my!
Mrs. Irie: I have to get my camera!
(Kotoko and Naoki are both asleep with their heads on the table)
Kotoko: Even though he's the Irie-kun I admire.
(morning)
Mrs. Irie: The big day is finally here, Kotoko-chan. 
P.90
Mrs. Irie: I've put together a little good-luck charm for you
Kotoko: Wow.
Mrs. Irie: Don't open it up until after the test, ok?
Naoki: Geez, these aren't college entrance exams.
Kotoko: Byeee!
(school)
Kotoko: I want to thank Irie-kun.
Kotoko: Just once.
Kotoko: But he'll get mad at me if I talk to him at school.
Kotoko: It's no surprise that he's ignoring me.
Kotoko: Ahhh, I have to go into my classroom soon.
Kotoko: H-here goes.
(she zips by Naoki)
Kotoko: Thank you.
Naoki: Good luck. 
P.91
(Kotoko stares over her shoulder in surprise)
(the midterms begin)
(Japanese)
Kotoko: Hey, I-I can do this problem.
Kotoko: This one too.
(English)
Kotoko: Only two left.
(Math)
Kotoko: This is just like on Irie-kun showed me.
writing between frames: The long week...
students: [is finally over!]
Kin: [time to plaay!]
Satomi: How did you do, Kotoko?
Kotoko: N-not too bad, I think. [phew]
Satomi: Watch what you say. [you might have to eat your words later] 
P.92
(Kin wraps his arm around Kotoko's neck)
Kin: We're hanging out today, Kotoko!
Kotoko: Eh? W-wait, Kin-chan!
Kin: No matter what you say, I'm not letting you go today!
(a male student walks by the F-gumi classroom)
student: Hey, that girl--
(it's glasses boy, walking next to Naoki)
glasses boy: It's that girl who confessed her love to you, isn't it?
glasses boy: Looks like she might be dating that Osaka type.
Naoki: I really couldn't care less.
(Kotoko storms through the hallway) 
P.93
(she runs over to the bulletin of the top test score)
Kotoko: 1st place is...
Kotoko: Irie-kun.
Kotoko: Thank goodness.
Kotoko: I was really worried that the lack of sleep might've affected him.
student: [wow, Irie-kun got a perfect score!]
Kotoko: Th-there's no way... I'm on there... is there.
(Naoki and glasses boy are also walking down the hallway to go see the bulletin)
glasses boy: (to Naoki) Hey... Why are you hurrying??
glasses boy: There's nothing for you to worry about. You're at the top every 
time.
(Naoki stares at the lower side of the score sheet)
glasses boy: Ah, h-hey, (pointing to the other side) #1 is over there.
glasses boy: That's the bottom.
(Naoki is stunned)
Naoki: ........
glasses boy: Irie... Huh? 
P.94
glasses boy: I-isn't that the name of--?
student: [uwaa, there's an F-gumi student up there]
student: [Aihara is #100]
glasses boy: No way, there's someone from F-gumi on the list!
(yep, Kotoko got 100th place! =>)
Naoki: Ket's go.
glasses boy: [ehhh?? don't you want to see your own...?]
glasses boy: [I didn't get to see my placing either]
(Naoki bumps into Kotoko)
Kotoko: Ah...
Kotoko: Con-congratulations on being 1st.
Kotoko: You got everything right. 
P.95
Naoki: Naturally. Tutoring you was the first time I had studied in my entire 
life.
Naoki: You did well yourself.
Kotoko: Eh?
Naoki: You didn't see?
Kotoko: Eh??
(she runs over to the lower side of the sheet, and sees her name in the 100th 
place)
Kotoko: I'm #100!!
Kotoko: [KYAAAA!!] 
P.96
(Kotoko jumps up into the air)
Kotoko: [Irie-kun!]
Kotoko: [I'm 100!]
Kotoko: [Irie-kun!]
Naoki: Th...that loudmouth.
(Kotoko grabs Naoki's arms)
Kotoko: Thank you!
Kotoko: I'm so happy!
(he holds his hand out)
Kotoko: Huh? [does he want to shake hands?]
Naoki: Give it to me.
Naoki: The thing you promised me. 
P.97
Kotoko: Oh, this?
(she holds up the photo, and he snatches it away indignantly)
Naoki: Never bring this up again.
Naoki: And I don't want to have to say this again either. Don't talk to me at 
school.
Kotoko: Uh... ok.
Kotoko: [but... oh well...]
Kotoko: [thank you!]
Kotoko: [thank you, Irie-kun!]
(he looks like he wants to kill her =>) 
P.98
Kotoko: [thank you!]
Kin: [Ko-Kotoko...]
(Kotoko goes back to stare at the posted scores)
Kotoko: It's still top and bottom,
Kotoko: but we're on the same piece of paper.
