Bungaku Shoujo Memoire
~ Rhapsody of the Love Maiden ~
I-I don't think I look weird.
It'll be fine.
What will Inoue think of me?
Hey, what did you write on the wooden plaque?
Come on, tell me.
"I hope to become lovers with senpai."
Who might this senpai be? Tell us!
It's your turn now, Nanase.
We've all told each other whom we like.
Don't tell me you like Akutagawa-kun?
No, you can't!
All is lost if you become my rival.
I'm... not interested in anybody.
But I have someone I hate.
Hmm?
Who?
Inoue Konoha.
Why's that?
Inoue-kun is kind and can handle things well.
He's not one to hate.
True, he's old-fashioned and inconspicuous.
But his upbeat attitude is quite nice.
That's exactly what I dislike about him.
He always shows that hypocritical smile.
I don't get what he's thinking at all.
It's disgusting.
I-Inoue-kun?
Hm?
Oh, so you guys haven't gone out yet?
Sorry, I must've disturbed you.
I think he overheard our conversation.
It's fine, isn't it?
'Cuz it's all true.
You're so harsh.
Kotobuki Nanase.
Isn't she great?
A beauty, and has good style.
Even that ice-cold personality pierces through my beating heart.
See ya! See you tomorrow.
See ya!
I can't take this anymore, Mori-chan.
Come on, why do you say things like that?
What should I do?
Inoue will hate me for sure.
Well, he won't have a good impression of you.
Since he's been described to such extent.
No way!
No, it's not like that, Inoue.
I know, your genuine smile is really sweet.
But why did you have to blurt out that you hate him?
Didn't your wish to be in the same class as Inoue-kun come true?
In any case, just smile.
Got that?
Well then, see you tomorrow.
Smile, huh?
I'll try harder tomorrow.
I'll get closer to Inoue.
460 Yen.
What?
Payment for the book you ruined.
You'll have to pay a fine if you lose a book or tear it.
That's the rule.
But, it was Touko-senpai who...
I can't just go to Amano-senpai and ask her to pay.
She's the library head.
She knows which book goes where better than the chief librarian.
You'll cover for her.
Um... Kotobuki-san.
Don't you think this is strange?
Not at all.
If you do tell Amano-senpai, I'll punch you.
Is something wrong, Nanase?
What's with that 500 Yen?
Idiot!
I'm such an idiot!
I'll punch myself!
Mori-chan?
Listen carefully!
What you did is clearly a crime.
You actually blackmailed someone for 500 Yen.
Please cut me some slack...
Since it's been done, why not attempt something bigger?
Something like, "stealing his heart."
You're still acting dumb 'til the very end.
It'd be best to arrest you!
I'm sorry, Mori-chan.
I get nervous whenever I make eye contact with Inoue.
I feel I have to say something, and then start panicking.
It's okay if you don't say anything.
Give him a smile whenever he sees you.
That already makes you cute.
All right!
Leave it to me.
Drama Club
Tactic no. 1: If you master acting, you'll master love.
Come, let us laugh from the bottom of our hearts.
You there!
Laugh more.
This won't do.
Tea Ceremony Club
Tactic no. 2: Love is the way of Zen.
Tea Ceremony Club
Zen is nothing; only concentrate on your consciousness.
Maintain this state of mind and empty your heart for 10 seconds.
Empty your heart?
Meaning, don't think about anything for 10 seconds.
After that, just smile.
In this way, you'll be able to give off a genuine smile.
I-I see, don't think about anything.
Don't think of anything, don't think of anything.
Hey-
Don't think of anything.

K-Kotobuki... fancies me?
In your dreams.
What's this?
No way!
Tactic no. 3: Love is to become Pavlov's dog.
Note: Pavlov's experiments in classical conditioning in dogs (1927).
Whenever you see him, give off a conditioned smile.
Here.
You're not making any sense...
Hey, did you hear?
Inoue-kun and Akutagawa-kun did it.
Did it?
They're gay for each other.
Konoha-senpai!
I heard it!
You and Akutagawa-senpai did it for the first time on your first date.
T-Takeda-san!
It's a misunderstanding!
Good to hear that the homo thing was just a misunderstanding.
Yeah.
What needs to be done has been done.
We even prayed to God.
What's left is your own effort.
Yeah.
Inoue?
I'm begging you!
Please protect Nanase from the guys' maniacal stares.
She's really bothered by it.
But, why me?
I thought she hates me...
So you'll just stand there and watch while your classmate is being violated?
No, I...
I know you won't leave it be!
Am I right?
You feel like protecting her, don't you?
R-Right...
That's the Inoue-kun I know.
Thanks for helping out.
I'm counting on you!
I created an opportunity for you to talk.
Go for it, Nanase!
Inoue, for my sake...
Inoue, this is...
Stop looking!
You pervert!
Inoue-kun was trying to protect you.
You know that, don't you?!
Nothing will change if you don't change yourself!
The Nanase now is not cute at all!
I'm such a failure.
Are you hungry?
Here.
What's your name?
Can I call you Konoha?
Um...
If you don't mind, take this.
Just attach this to the torn area.
He doesn't remember at all.
It's all right even if he doesn't.
I haven't had any progress since then.
The badge and the 500 Yen...
I can only be connected to Inoue via those.
No, those don't even count.
Nothing will change if you don't change yourself!
Good morning, Nanase!
This fabulous aura...
Mori-chan.
Today, I am totally different to how I was yesterday.
Huh?
And then, I think I'll be more different tomorrow.
I'll talk to him properly.
Wait for my good news.
R-Roger that.
I'm really sorry for what happened before.
Please try this...
Konoha-senpai!
I have something to discuss with you!
I'm really sorry for what happened before.
Please try this...
Konoha-kun!
It's regarding the future of the Literature Club.
Come with me for a bit.
What should I do?
I'm such a fool... an idiot.
Konoha, don't just "wan."
Call me "Nanase."
I finally found you, Wan Wan.
Wan Wan?
T-That's so cute.
Hey.
Gimme a break already...
Kotobuki-san?
No more, please...
How are you doing, Nanase?
Mori-chan!
Did you really ram yourself into a parked car?
I almost died laughing.
Please don't remind me...
I almost wanted to retort "You said to wait for good news, and this is what I get."
I'm not really getting confined.
It's more of a check-up.
My body is alive and kicking.
Speaking of which, how did it all happen?
Sorry, can't tell.
I'll probably tell you when the time is right...
I almost forgot the lecture notes...
Come in!
Sorry to bother.
I-Inoue?
I heard Kotobuki-san is being confined here.
My house is nearby, so I came here along the way.
I-I didn't think you'd come.
What a surprise.
Well, it's because it happened right before my very eyes.
Um, I'll get a change of water for these flowers.
W-Why did you suddenly visit me?
Well, that's...
...because...
Sorry, I should go home now.
I didn't say you could go home.
It's just that...
My pyjamas are all crumpled, I didn't comb my hair properly...
...and I smell of sweat.
I-I'm sorry.
What should I do?
I have to say something.
No, I can't think of anything to say.
I just hope you'll cheer up more.
Besides, he wants to see you too.
Hush, be quiet!
A-Ah-
I thought I heard a dog's bark.
It was me.
Wan wan!
In any case, please keep it down.
That's great.
You're laughing.
I-Idiot!
I happened to see you playing with this little fellow.
Kotobuki-san...
...you looked really happy.
A name like Wan Wan doesn't make any sense, ya know.
What did you call him, then?
I'm not telling.
I should also have matured a little.
