Kyousuke: I mean... To anyone. 4 [Komatsu puts a conspiratorial arm around Kyousuke's shoulder.] Komatsu: Got it? Now that you've come this far, you're an accomplice as well! Understand!! Hatta: Anyway, you went collecting stuff of your own free will. 5 [As Kyousuke walks away from the shed, Komatsu waves a panty overhead in fond farewell.] Komatsu: See you later! 6 Komatsu: But...
