Mischievous Kiss: Love in Tokyo (2013–2015): Season 1, Episode 11 - Koibito wa santa kurôsu - full transcript
Are you alright, Yuki-kun?
It's better for him to get a surgery as soon as possible.
Your brother fainted.
Aren't you being too selfish?
The thoughts you have.
It's important to say those to people around you.
Thank you, Kotoko.
Graduating from college and continuing dad's business...
Then it's like I'm living as my parents told me to.
Nao . . .
Of course it's something happened without me knowing.
I still think
Naoki and I have nothing in progress.
And the time passes...
When Yuki successfully had his surgery and
is discharged from the hospital, it was already the end of the year.
For those people who have lovers,
the best Christmas season that they had longed for, arrived.
However, for those people who don't have anyone...
You're welcome.
Hey, hey, guy over there!
Please, refill my glass of water.
How many hours are you going to stay only for coffee and water?
Hey, hey, hey...
What are you going to do for Christmas Eve day?
Perhaps coming back to home...?
Work.
What?
Hey.
He's working at a cafe, there's no way he cantake a break on Christmas Eve.
By any chance,
are you working with him?
Right.
I'll work hard with Irie-kun.
Christmas Eve,, the reservations are full.
Then I'll make a reservation, too.
Would you?
At our cafe on Christmas eve, you can only have a set coursed dinner.
What?
On top of which, it's dinner for two.
Dinner for two?!
It costs $200!
It's off my limit.
I'm fine.
Even if I can't spent time with Irie-kun,
I have friends.
Kotoko!
-Kotoko!-Jinko, Satomi!
Hey, about this year's Christmas...
Hey, I have someone to introduce to you.
Someone you want to introduce?
Hah! He came, came!
What's up? What?
Come this way.
Hey, come!
I'll introduce him.
My boyfriend, Narasaki-kun. He's in a band.
I'm Narasaki. Nice to meet you.
Here's my boyfriend, Takamiya Ryo-kun.
He's a law student.
It's the first time to meet you, I'm Nakamiya Ryo.
Nice to meet you.
Boyfriend...?
Both of you, when...?
I really wanted to introduce him to you before Christmas.
Is that so? That's how it is.
Congratulations to both of you.
-Thank you.-You're welcome.
For that reason,
I'm the only one who doesn't have a boyfriend
before the first Christmas at college.
This situation.
I feel like it's going to be the worst Christmas ever.
♫ Hey, have you noticed? I'm updating ♫
♫ Someday it'll get to you ♫
♫ Where are the real feelings at? ♫
♫ I'm not avoiding or liking it ♫
♫ It's just worthless ♫
♫ I'm repeating the same thought ♫
♫ again and again like this, It's okay even it's the half of you ♫

Mischievous Kiss: Love in TOKYO
#11Santa Claus is a Lover
Ko~toko-chan.
Kin-chan.
What about work? Can you hang out?
My shift is about to end.
More than that, did you hear?Jinko and Satomi have boyfriends!
Then it means that both of them will have the
HOT Christmas Eve.
Because it's the first Christmas Eve with a lover.
That's how it's supposed to be.
That means...
most importantly!
Kotoko is
left alone.
Don't say that.
You must be lonely.
You must be sad.
That's why I prepared this special plan for Kotoko...
You're here!
Jinko?
Listen to me, Kotoko.
You can't spend the Christmas Eve with Narasaki-kun?
But it's first Christmas Eve for you and him.
Right? But Narasaki-kun said
he had to attend the Christmas Concert.
Because Christmas is a day for love,
he said he had to spread love to the world.
What a musician.
Can't you spend time with him after the concert?
The concert is not held in Tokyo.
It's in Sendai.
It ends at really late night.
I won't be able to come back home that night.
But he's try to be a professional musician, right?Then there's nothing to stop him...
I know all that.
But I want him to spread the love to me,
not only to the world.
Do you understand?
I'll eat up.
You guys are here.
Listen to me. Ryo is... Ryo is...
Ryo told me he can't spend Christmas with me.
You, too?
You're lying...
Ryo said
he can't bail out from work.
He's said that he's working to give me a present.
But it's not about the materials!
It's about the feelings, that's what we want, right?
Men really don't know what women want.
Why can't they understand our girl minds that
we really want to spend time together on that specific day?
You're so right.
Fine!
Let's leave the men who don't get the female minds behind.
For this year's Christmas,
let's have a fun party just for the three of us!
Good!
But are you okay with that, Kotoko?
Right, Irie will come back home for Christmas.
About that,
Irie-kun's going to work at the cafe
with Matsumoto Yuko.
That's the worst.
I won't lose to you both that
he's no better in understanding the female mind.
Well, then again, I'm not exactly his girlfriend...
That doesn't matter.
Anyway we can't trust guys at all!
You're right. What we can believe is
girl friends only!
The three of us,
bring your hands.
Let's make a pact.
We'll have a fun Christmas Eve just for the three of us!
-Agreed!-Agreed!
Betrayal is
zero tolerance!
-Yes!-Yes!
Wait, wait, wait!
I'm here, too.
That's scary, really scary!
Hey, girls.
Those guys and I are a lot different.
If you guys are going to have a party, count me on, too!
I'll use all my skills to make you the Christmas food.
I won't betray you all.
Let's make the night
fun for us all! Let's . . . let's . . . let's . . .
What?
What? Why?
Hey, Kin. You're still an intern, you work at the restaurant.
She's right. What about Aihara?
They're right. Do you think there's a restaurant where's
on break for Christmas Eve in this world?
What?
I should get off early at Christmas Eve.
[Aihara]Yes, we'll wait for you. Thank you.
Bye.
Christmas with Kotoko~ Christmas with Kotoko~
Things are going really well.
That's right, Aniki!
9, 10...
You're kidding! All the tables...
Even the counter seats!
They're perfectly full with reservations!
Of course it's Christmas Eve!
The first period from 6pm and the second period from 8pm.
Dang, there will also be customers without reservations.
It's going to be a big deal.
But Isn't Christmas an event of the Christians?
Why would they eat Japanese food on that day?
It's thankful thing for the restaurant.
Most especially, Master will take off around 9 o'clock.
After that, the two of us have to make it through.
What are you talking about?
He has something important to do.
Probably a party.
Par-ty?
It's Christmas party!
Christmas part-ty?
Oh my god!
That's right.
Because of his hard work, his company meets its 20th year of anniversary.
Right?
So we're going to have a celebrating party
at the Prince Hotel.
Is that so? Congratulation to you!
You're welcome, welcome.
I've made this far
because of every one's support.
It's a simple way to express our gratitude.
So
Kotoko's father will come
after work.
My father?
Yeah, many of the party invitees
are regulars of Aihara.
And I have many guests I want to introduce this time.
So I was hoping
you would come if you can?
That's awesome!
Christmas at the Hotel Prince.
Right?
Yes.
Let's make a pact.
We'll have a fun Christmas just for the three of us!
Agreed!
You can't betray!
YES!
I'm sorry, I already have a plan for the day.
A plan?
Wi... With a guy?
Kotoko-chan!
Do you have someone else than Naoki?
No way.
It's different. I promised with Jinko and Satomi.
Since you invited me, I really want to go but...
Well... Can't do something about the plan?
This time guys are not allowed
because of many reasons.
Well then...
I'm sorry but there's nothing we can do.
Mom, how about Naoki?
Naoki's coming to the party, right?
He can't come, either.
What? Is that right?
He said he had to work at the cafe for Christmas Eve.
It's no fun then.
Right?
Even though it's Dad's company party...
It's unusual, isn't it,
for you to call me to a place like this.
Ginger ale.
Yes, sir.
What is it that you want to say?
Okay.
You heard about our company's celebrating foundation party from Mom, right?
Yes.
I want you to come.
I'm asking.
I know your scheme.
You want to introduce me to
the people at the party as a successor.
But I haven't decided whether I'm going to continue your company.
I know that.
But can't you come for this time?
Leave that matter aside,
It's enough for me if you show your face.
I'm asking. Please come.
[Diagnosis, Rescue: The latest medical magazine]
I feel like Irie-kun will make it somehow.
Like you'll create many new medicines or
become a doctor and cure a disease.
-Dad's home early.-Yes, he's early.
Why are you here, Irie-kun?
What?
Is it bad to come to my own house?
No, it's just has been so long.
But what changed your mind?
I came to get my suit.
A suit?
I can't wear jeans to a party.
Naoki, are you going to attend the Christmas Eve party?
I asked to give me a break during work.
So I'll be late.
I'll show my face for just a moment.
Awesome, Naoki's coming!
Thank you, Dad will be so happy.
Right... Irie-kun's going to the party.
Then if I go to that party,
I'll be able to spend Christmas Eve with Irie-kun.
I'm confused, but isn't this situation forgivable even if I leave the friendship behind?
I was also thinking of going to the...
I heard you can't make it.
What?
You're spending Christmas with your girlfriends.
About that... Um...
It's a shame.
It would be so much fun if you were there.
Irie-kun, um, I - - -
He's right.
Naoki, please persuade Kotoko-chan to come.
No, it can't be helped.
She made a decision.
But...
I think the girl friends will betray easily.
No matter what it's Christmas Eve.
No, no... Their friendship is something special.
Right, Kotoko?
That's... Well...
Is that so?
Naoki.
Naoki, that suit. The one you wore at the high school graduation ceremony.
Irie-kun's mean.
Well then. I can't do anything about it.
I made a pact to not betray...
Christmas.
Oh, my!
So we're picking the cake from this limited area in Sibuya?
I'll put in an advanced order.
It looks so delicious, so excited!
A party with Irie...
Kotoko?
Kotoko, can you hear me?
What?
Wow, that looks so delicious!
Then I'll prepare chicken.
And game.
And since it's Christmas, we should prepare presents!
Right.
These two are expecting so much for the day.
It's fine this way.
White Christmas~ Yay!
Yes, perfect!
Great.
Hey, is everyone ready?
Yes!
Huh? Where's Naoki?
He will be going after he is done with work.
Okay.
Aihara-san will be late,
since he is going after work, too.
Okay. So we are all ready.
Let's go out!-Yeah!
Kotoko-chan,
will you really be okay?
Naoki finally decided to go.
Yes, it's too bad, but I promised my friends first.
Moreover,
thank you very much for letting us use the house.
Jinko and Satomi, are really happy!
Feel free to use it.
Yes!
We're going to be late tonight.
If you guys are using here for a party, I'd rather thank you.
Lately,
Because probably it's the end of the year,
the thieves show up around
this area, too.
So if you guys are making loud noises,
it's rather safe that way.
Yes, thank you very much.
No worries.
Well, it's too bad we couldn't go all together, but
Kotoko-chan
you have fun too!
I will!
Let's hurry and go.
-Okay.Let's go, let's go.
-We're leaving!-Bye!
Irie-kun in a suit...
he will look so cool.
Par-ty, right?
May I have this dance?
Certainly.
No, no! It's a girls' night.
It's girls' night!
Girls' night with Jinko and Satomi!
Ah, there it is. Pin!
So cute!
Christmas is so nice!
Huh? It's long.
Why can't I untie this? I didn't know it's going to be like this.
No, no.
This year...
What kind of presents will there be, I wonder?
Alright!
I thought this Christmas Eve would be spent working with Naoki. Why is it turning out this way?
Merry Christmas!
It's a coincidence.
I had no idea Matsumoto would
work at this place on Christmas.
Ah, we-we..well...
How... How about going for a dinner after work?
Aren't you eating dinner now?
And even for two people portion.
Excuse me, waitress, water please.
Waitress, Waitress Matsumoto, water please.
Right now, I wish I was
waiting for Irie-kun.
They'll be here soon.
Hello? Jinko. What is it?
I'm sorry, Kotoko!
Narasaki's concert in Sendai
is cancelled due to heavy snow.
Since it happened, he came to Tokyo
to see me by hitchhiking.
The train is not moving but he came by hitchhiking!
I can't go to a party and leave Narasaki like this.
Please, only for this time
let me be with him.
Oh, okay, I got it.
I'll tell Satomi, too.
It's okay, it's okay.
I know it can't be helped.
Say hi to Narasaki-kun for me.
Well... Satomi and I, just the two of us will have a good time.
Hello. What's up, Satomi?
Sorry, Kotoko!
Ryoutaro actually lied about working today.
He's at my house right now, with this beautiful bouquet of flowers...
It looks like I can't make it.
Actually he tried to surprise me,
he even made a reservation at a restaurant a long time ago.
He said he wanted it to be a surprise!
So I'm really sorry...
Okay.
I'll just have fun with Jinko.
I'm really sorry. Next time I'll treat the both of you.
Don't worry. Well, have fun.-Yeah.
Thanks.
I ended up being abandoned anyway...
I should've just gone to the party...
That's right, I can go to the party now!
Jinko and Satomi are with their boyfriends, so...
I came here.
Well, I did say...
you can't trust girlfriends.
You're even betrayed by your friends, stupid Kotoko.
When you're like that, you'll be hated by Naoki.
It's too uncool.
Thank you.
Thank you, please come again.
Well, then. I'm off.
-Goodbye.-Bye.
Only one reservation group left. We'll make it through.
Yes.
It's the first time I've seen the restaurant this busy.
Christmas is not something to ignore.
That's right.
Welcome!
Welcome.
Thank you.
This restaurant has quite a good review by critics.
They continue the traditions and highly evaluated at NEO JAPANET for their unique Japanese food.
Really, is that so?
Ryo, you picked Japanese restaurant. You're so deep and cool.
You're welcome.
Satomi, why are you here?
Kin-chan why are you here?
Oh, wait... Is this possibly the restaurant that Kotoko's dad runs?
You know this place?
Satomi, you're really something.
You're a step ahead.
Satomi, aren't you supposed to have a party with Kotoko?
What about Kotoko?
I'm sorry, Kin-chan.
My boyfriend suddenly came to pick me up...
I'm Takamiya Ryo...
Is Kotoko alone now?
No, she is with Jinko.
I guess those two would have a lot fun now.
Okay, then.
Wow, it looks so delicious.
It's tempura wrapped with vegetable.
Please enjoy.
Eating Japanese food for Christmas is not bad.
Right?
It's good.
Oh, Jin...
What was that before?
I'm helping Narasaki's performance now.
What?
Aren't you partying with Kotoko now?
That's... Narasaki suddenly went back from Sendai.
Kotoko's partying with Satomi.
Is that so?
Then it's fine. Have fun.
Merry Christmas.
Love, love, love.
Love, love, love (In Japanese).
This is love, love, love.
Love, love, love.
But I think
girl friends would easily betray you.
No matter what it's Christmas Eve.
Christmas with Irie-kun . . .
Hungry...
Jinko and Satomi were supposed to bring chicken and cake.
Only dried snacks are available.
Salt ramen it is...
It's Christmas Eve,
How are you guys doing?
When it's Christmas Eve,
Delicious.
we're supposed to have a fun dinner as a couple.
There's no way
a person can be alone in the room...
Well, those kinds of people must exist, huh?
If that's the case, you can just say, "So what?," but...
Christmas is fun!
Can you look at here?
Say Christmas, Christmas. It's so loud, I can see it all.
I feel emptiness.
What is it?
A thief has been breaking into houses around here.
No way...
No, it's possible because Irie family is rich.
What should I do?
Right!
A thief! Get out! Get out!
Get out!
What are you doing?
Irie-kun!!
I'm sorry, are you alright?
He's so good-looking.
What is it?
No.
You look like this but I hit your head...
And it's your own house...
You did all that!
I'm sorry.
Seriously.
I'm sorry, Irie.
Because I heard the clinking sound outside
I though it's a thief.
I got confused and tried to open it with a key for my apartment.
Seriously, hit me with your stupidly strong power...
My bad.
But anyway, why aren't you at your father's party?
You didn't go?
I went.
I ran away in the middle of the party.
I was bored to be introduced to the higher power clients.
Dad must be really mad by now.
What about you?
Your friends' little... 'party.' Didn't work out?
That's... Jinko and Satomi
suddenly got things to do with their boyfriends.
Wow. That's a close friendship if I've ever seen one.
Please don't put it that way...
What's that smell?
What, this?
Chicken! Did you, by any chance, get it for me?
As if.
I'm hungry.
I didn't end up eating anything at the party.
Well, you see, I didn't have anything except some instant ramen, soooo...
It was hard.
I'm really bushed.
-Should we get off now?-Yes.
Right.
Excuse me, Bro.
What?
I want to do something.
Can I stay here?
That's fine.
Thank you.
I'm eating dinner with Irie-kun alone
on Christmas Eve.
Right!
I prepared it for Jinko and Satomi.
Somehow, this really does feel like Christmas...
Is that so?
It's probably my first time doing this after having grown up.
You know, my mom passed away early.
Dad has to work at the restaurant.
He was always busy at Christmas until the night.
I had a party with friends, but
I've never had the real Christmas-like Christmas with family.
I actually never had that.
Even it was a coincidence,
I could have my first real Christmas-like Christmas
for just Irie-kun and I alone.
I feel like I'm dreaming.
Maybe it's the most pleasing present
I've ever gotten for Christmas.
Love, love.
Love, love, love.
Satomi.
Merry Christmas.
- No way!- Yes way!
Welcome, what can I do for you to day?
Welcome.
Santa! Santa?
Oh, Just this way.
Okay, it's...
right here
You've got it!
It's the last one too. That's so lucky!
YES!
That's it. I'm going to buy a cake.
'Cause, Despite this 'Christmasy' feeling in the air...
It's just too much of a waste when there's no cake.
There's probably one at a corner store right now, so I've got to...
There's one.
What?
Cake.
Merry Christmas!
What? Oh my god! Why? Why? Why?
It's a present from Santa Claus.
Yeah right.
Then... is it from you...?
Who else would bring it?
Did you possibly think of me
and bring this cake back for me?
You have a really over-inflated ego.
The cake seller cried and clung onto me.
The seller's shift won't end until the last one is sold.
Wait for me, Kotoko! You'll be stuffing your face with delicious food!
Merry Christmas!
Make a wish!
That's for birthdays.
Huh?
For birthdays?
Let's surprise her.
Naoki, thank you.
I didn't do this for you.
But this cake is for two.
What a coincidence.
Hey, I'll give you this Santa.
Whatever.
What, it's dark.
Just make a wish anyway.
C'mon.
You make the wish.
Really?
Subtitles brought to you by Mischievous Kisser Team @Viki.
It's better for him to get a surgery as soon as possible.
Your brother fainted.
Aren't you being too selfish?
The thoughts you have.
It's important to say those to people around you.
Thank you, Kotoko.
Graduating from college and continuing dad's business...
Then it's like I'm living as my parents told me to.
Nao . . .
Of course it's something happened without me knowing.
I still think
Naoki and I have nothing in progress.
And the time passes...
When Yuki successfully had his surgery and
is discharged from the hospital, it was already the end of the year.
For those people who have lovers,
the best Christmas season that they had longed for, arrived.
However, for those people who don't have anyone...
You're welcome.
Hey, hey, guy over there!
Please, refill my glass of water.
How many hours are you going to stay only for coffee and water?
Hey, hey, hey...
What are you going to do for Christmas Eve day?
Perhaps coming back to home...?
Work.
What?
Hey.
He's working at a cafe, there's no way he cantake a break on Christmas Eve.
By any chance,
are you working with him?
Right.
I'll work hard with Irie-kun.
Christmas Eve,, the reservations are full.
Then I'll make a reservation, too.
Would you?
At our cafe on Christmas eve, you can only have a set coursed dinner.
What?
On top of which, it's dinner for two.
Dinner for two?!
It costs $200!
It's off my limit.
I'm fine.
Even if I can't spent time with Irie-kun,
I have friends.
Kotoko!
-Kotoko!-Jinko, Satomi!
Hey, about this year's Christmas...
Hey, I have someone to introduce to you.
Someone you want to introduce?
Hah! He came, came!
What's up? What?
Come this way.
Hey, come!
I'll introduce him.
My boyfriend, Narasaki-kun. He's in a band.
I'm Narasaki. Nice to meet you.
Here's my boyfriend, Takamiya Ryo-kun.
He's a law student.
It's the first time to meet you, I'm Nakamiya Ryo.
Nice to meet you.
Boyfriend...?
Both of you, when...?
I really wanted to introduce him to you before Christmas.
Is that so? That's how it is.
Congratulations to both of you.
-Thank you.-You're welcome.
For that reason,
I'm the only one who doesn't have a boyfriend
before the first Christmas at college.
This situation.
I feel like it's going to be the worst Christmas ever.

Mischievous Kiss: Love in TOKYO
#11Santa Claus is a Lover
Ko~toko-chan.
Kin-chan.
What about work? Can you hang out?
My shift is about to end.
More than that, did you hear?Jinko and Satomi have boyfriends!
Then it means that both of them will have the
HOT Christmas Eve.
Because it's the first Christmas Eve with a lover.
That's how it's supposed to be.
That means...
most importantly!
Kotoko is
left alone.
Don't say that.
You must be lonely.
You must be sad.
That's why I prepared this special plan for Kotoko...
You're here!
Jinko?
Listen to me, Kotoko.
You can't spend the Christmas Eve with Narasaki-kun?
But it's first Christmas Eve for you and him.
Right? But Narasaki-kun said
he had to attend the Christmas Concert.
Because Christmas is a day for love,
he said he had to spread love to the world.
What a musician.
Can't you spend time with him after the concert?
The concert is not held in Tokyo.
It's in Sendai.
It ends at really late night.
I won't be able to come back home that night.
But he's try to be a professional musician, right?Then there's nothing to stop him...
I know all that.
But I want him to spread the love to me,
not only to the world.
Do you understand?
I'll eat up.
You guys are here.
Listen to me. Ryo is... Ryo is...
Ryo told me he can't spend Christmas with me.
You, too?
You're lying...
Ryo said
he can't bail out from work.
He's said that he's working to give me a present.
But it's not about the materials!
It's about the feelings, that's what we want, right?
Men really don't know what women want.
Why can't they understand our girl minds that
we really want to spend time together on that specific day?
You're so right.
Fine!
Let's leave the men who don't get the female minds behind.
For this year's Christmas,
let's have a fun party just for the three of us!
Good!
But are you okay with that, Kotoko?
Right, Irie will come back home for Christmas.
About that,
Irie-kun's going to work at the cafe
with Matsumoto Yuko.
That's the worst.
I won't lose to you both that
he's no better in understanding the female mind.
Well, then again, I'm not exactly his girlfriend...
That doesn't matter.
Anyway we can't trust guys at all!
You're right. What we can believe is
girl friends only!
The three of us,
bring your hands.
Let's make a pact.
We'll have a fun Christmas Eve just for the three of us!
-Agreed!-Agreed!
Betrayal is
zero tolerance!
-Yes!-Yes!
Wait, wait, wait!
I'm here, too.
That's scary, really scary!
Hey, girls.
Those guys and I are a lot different.
If you guys are going to have a party, count me on, too!
I'll use all my skills to make you the Christmas food.
I won't betray you all.
Let's make the night
fun for us all! Let's . . . let's . . . let's . . .
What?
What? Why?
Hey, Kin. You're still an intern, you work at the restaurant.
She's right. What about Aihara?
They're right. Do you think there's a restaurant where's
on break for Christmas Eve in this world?
What?
I should get off early at Christmas Eve.
[Aihara]Yes, we'll wait for you. Thank you.
Bye.
Christmas with Kotoko~ Christmas with Kotoko~
Things are going really well.
That's right, Aniki!
9, 10...
You're kidding! All the tables...
Even the counter seats!
They're perfectly full with reservations!
Of course it's Christmas Eve!
The first period from 6pm and the second period from 8pm.
Dang, there will also be customers without reservations.
It's going to be a big deal.
But Isn't Christmas an event of the Christians?
Why would they eat Japanese food on that day?
It's thankful thing for the restaurant.
Most especially, Master will take off around 9 o'clock.
After that, the two of us have to make it through.
What are you talking about?
He has something important to do.
Probably a party.
Par-ty?
It's Christmas party!
Christmas part-ty?
Oh my god!
That's right.
Because of his hard work, his company meets its 20th year of anniversary.
Right?
So we're going to have a celebrating party
at the Prince Hotel.
Is that so? Congratulation to you!
You're welcome, welcome.
I've made this far
because of every one's support.
It's a simple way to express our gratitude.
So
Kotoko's father will come
after work.
My father?
Yeah, many of the party invitees
are regulars of Aihara.
And I have many guests I want to introduce this time.
So I was hoping
you would come if you can?
That's awesome!
Christmas at the Hotel Prince.
Right?
Yes.
Let's make a pact.
We'll have a fun Christmas just for the three of us!
Agreed!
You can't betray!
YES!
I'm sorry, I already have a plan for the day.
A plan?
Wi... With a guy?
Kotoko-chan!
Do you have someone else than Naoki?
No way.
It's different. I promised with Jinko and Satomi.
Since you invited me, I really want to go but...
Well... Can't do something about the plan?
This time guys are not allowed
because of many reasons.
Well then...
I'm sorry but there's nothing we can do.
Mom, how about Naoki?
Naoki's coming to the party, right?
He can't come, either.
What? Is that right?
He said he had to work at the cafe for Christmas Eve.
It's no fun then.
Right?
Even though it's Dad's company party...
It's unusual, isn't it,
for you to call me to a place like this.
Ginger ale.
Yes, sir.
What is it that you want to say?
Okay.
You heard about our company's celebrating foundation party from Mom, right?
Yes.
I want you to come.
I'm asking.
I know your scheme.
You want to introduce me to
the people at the party as a successor.
But I haven't decided whether I'm going to continue your company.
I know that.
But can't you come for this time?
Leave that matter aside,
It's enough for me if you show your face.
I'm asking. Please come.
[Diagnosis, Rescue: The latest medical magazine]
I feel like Irie-kun will make it somehow.
Like you'll create many new medicines or
become a doctor and cure a disease.
-Dad's home early.-Yes, he's early.
Why are you here, Irie-kun?
What?
Is it bad to come to my own house?
No, it's just has been so long.
But what changed your mind?
I came to get my suit.
A suit?
I can't wear jeans to a party.
Naoki, are you going to attend the Christmas Eve party?
I asked to give me a break during work.
So I'll be late.
I'll show my face for just a moment.
Awesome, Naoki's coming!
Thank you, Dad will be so happy.
Right... Irie-kun's going to the party.
Then if I go to that party,
I'll be able to spend Christmas Eve with Irie-kun.
I'm confused, but isn't this situation forgivable even if I leave the friendship behind?
I was also thinking of going to the...
I heard you can't make it.
What?
You're spending Christmas with your girlfriends.
About that... Um...
It's a shame.
It would be so much fun if you were there.
Irie-kun, um, I - - -
He's right.
Naoki, please persuade Kotoko-chan to come.
No, it can't be helped.
She made a decision.
But...
I think the girl friends will betray easily.
No matter what it's Christmas Eve.
No, no... Their friendship is something special.
Right, Kotoko?
That's... Well...
Is that so?
Naoki.
Naoki, that suit. The one you wore at the high school graduation ceremony.
Irie-kun's mean.
Well then. I can't do anything about it.
I made a pact to not betray...
Christmas.
Oh, my!
So we're picking the cake from this limited area in Sibuya?
I'll put in an advanced order.
It looks so delicious, so excited!
A party with Irie...
Kotoko?
Kotoko, can you hear me?
What?
Wow, that looks so delicious!
Then I'll prepare chicken.
And game.
And since it's Christmas, we should prepare presents!
Right.
These two are expecting so much for the day.
It's fine this way.
White Christmas~ Yay!
Yes, perfect!
Great.
Hey, is everyone ready?
Yes!
Huh? Where's Naoki?
He will be going after he is done with work.
Okay.
Aihara-san will be late,
since he is going after work, too.
Okay. So we are all ready.
Let's go out!-Yeah!
Kotoko-chan,
will you really be okay?
Naoki finally decided to go.
Yes, it's too bad, but I promised my friends first.
Moreover,
thank you very much for letting us use the house.
Jinko and Satomi, are really happy!
Feel free to use it.
Yes!
We're going to be late tonight.
If you guys are using here for a party, I'd rather thank you.
Lately,
Because probably it's the end of the year,
the thieves show up around
this area, too.
So if you guys are making loud noises,
it's rather safe that way.
Yes, thank you very much.
No worries.
Well, it's too bad we couldn't go all together, but
Kotoko-chan
you have fun too!
I will!
Let's hurry and go.
-Okay.Let's go, let's go.
-We're leaving!-Bye!
Irie-kun in a suit...
he will look so cool.
Par-ty, right?
May I have this dance?
Certainly.
No, no! It's a girls' night.
It's girls' night!
Girls' night with Jinko and Satomi!
Ah, there it is. Pin!
So cute!
Christmas is so nice!
Huh? It's long.
Why can't I untie this? I didn't know it's going to be like this.
No, no.
This year...
What kind of presents will there be, I wonder?
Alright!
I thought this Christmas Eve would be spent working with Naoki. Why is it turning out this way?
Merry Christmas!
It's a coincidence.
I had no idea Matsumoto would
work at this place on Christmas.
Ah, we-we..well...
How... How about going for a dinner after work?
Aren't you eating dinner now?
And even for two people portion.
Excuse me, waitress, water please.
Waitress, Waitress Matsumoto, water please.
Right now, I wish I was
waiting for Irie-kun.
They'll be here soon.
Hello? Jinko. What is it?
I'm sorry, Kotoko!
Narasaki's concert in Sendai
is cancelled due to heavy snow.
Since it happened, he came to Tokyo
to see me by hitchhiking.
The train is not moving but he came by hitchhiking!
I can't go to a party and leave Narasaki like this.
Please, only for this time
let me be with him.
Oh, okay, I got it.
I'll tell Satomi, too.
It's okay, it's okay.
I know it can't be helped.
Say hi to Narasaki-kun for me.
Well... Satomi and I, just the two of us will have a good time.
Hello. What's up, Satomi?
Sorry, Kotoko!
Ryoutaro actually lied about working today.
He's at my house right now, with this beautiful bouquet of flowers...
It looks like I can't make it.
Actually he tried to surprise me,
he even made a reservation at a restaurant a long time ago.
He said he wanted it to be a surprise!
So I'm really sorry...
Okay.
I'll just have fun with Jinko.
I'm really sorry. Next time I'll treat the both of you.
Don't worry. Well, have fun.-Yeah.
Thanks.
I ended up being abandoned anyway...
I should've just gone to the party...
That's right, I can go to the party now!
Jinko and Satomi are with their boyfriends, so...
I came here.
Well, I did say...
you can't trust girlfriends.
You're even betrayed by your friends, stupid Kotoko.
When you're like that, you'll be hated by Naoki.
It's too uncool.
Thank you.
Thank you, please come again.
Well, then. I'm off.
-Goodbye.-Bye.
Only one reservation group left. We'll make it through.
Yes.
It's the first time I've seen the restaurant this busy.
Christmas is not something to ignore.
That's right.
Welcome!
Welcome.
Thank you.
This restaurant has quite a good review by critics.
They continue the traditions and highly evaluated at NEO JAPANET for their unique Japanese food.
Really, is that so?
Ryo, you picked Japanese restaurant. You're so deep and cool.
You're welcome.
Satomi, why are you here?
Kin-chan why are you here?
Oh, wait... Is this possibly the restaurant that Kotoko's dad runs?
You know this place?
Satomi, you're really something.
You're a step ahead.
Satomi, aren't you supposed to have a party with Kotoko?
What about Kotoko?
I'm sorry, Kin-chan.
My boyfriend suddenly came to pick me up...
I'm Takamiya Ryo...
Is Kotoko alone now?
No, she is with Jinko.
I guess those two would have a lot fun now.
Okay, then.
Wow, it looks so delicious.
It's tempura wrapped with vegetable.
Please enjoy.
Eating Japanese food for Christmas is not bad.
Right?
It's good.
Oh, Jin...
What was that before?
I'm helping Narasaki's performance now.
What?
Aren't you partying with Kotoko now?
That's... Narasaki suddenly went back from Sendai.
Kotoko's partying with Satomi.
Is that so?
Then it's fine. Have fun.
Merry Christmas.
Love, love, love.
Love, love, love (In Japanese).
This is love, love, love.
Love, love, love.
But I think
girl friends would easily betray you.
No matter what it's Christmas Eve.
Christmas with Irie-kun . . .
Hungry...
Jinko and Satomi were supposed to bring chicken and cake.
Only dried snacks are available.
Salt ramen it is...
It's Christmas Eve,
How are you guys doing?
When it's Christmas Eve,
Delicious.
we're supposed to have a fun dinner as a couple.
There's no way
a person can be alone in the room...
Well, those kinds of people must exist, huh?
If that's the case, you can just say, "So what?," but...
Christmas is fun!
Can you look at here?
Say Christmas, Christmas. It's so loud, I can see it all.
I feel emptiness.
What is it?
A thief has been breaking into houses around here.
No way...
No, it's possible because Irie family is rich.
What should I do?
Right!
A thief! Get out! Get out!
Get out!
What are you doing?
Irie-kun!!
I'm sorry, are you alright?
He's so good-looking.
What is it?
No.
You look like this but I hit your head...
And it's your own house...
You did all that!
I'm sorry.
Seriously.
I'm sorry, Irie.
Because I heard the clinking sound outside
I though it's a thief.
I got confused and tried to open it with a key for my apartment.
Seriously, hit me with your stupidly strong power...
My bad.
But anyway, why aren't you at your father's party?
You didn't go?
I went.
I ran away in the middle of the party.
I was bored to be introduced to the higher power clients.
Dad must be really mad by now.
What about you?
Your friends' little... 'party.' Didn't work out?
That's... Jinko and Satomi
suddenly got things to do with their boyfriends.
Wow. That's a close friendship if I've ever seen one.
Please don't put it that way...
What's that smell?
What, this?
Chicken! Did you, by any chance, get it for me?
As if.
I'm hungry.
I didn't end up eating anything at the party.
Well, you see, I didn't have anything except some instant ramen, soooo...
It was hard.
I'm really bushed.
-Should we get off now?-Yes.
Right.
Excuse me, Bro.
What?
I want to do something.
Can I stay here?
That's fine.
Thank you.
I'm eating dinner with Irie-kun alone
on Christmas Eve.
Right!
I prepared it for Jinko and Satomi.
Somehow, this really does feel like Christmas...
Is that so?
It's probably my first time doing this after having grown up.
You know, my mom passed away early.
Dad has to work at the restaurant.
He was always busy at Christmas until the night.
I had a party with friends, but
I've never had the real Christmas-like Christmas with family.
I actually never had that.
Even it was a coincidence,
I could have my first real Christmas-like Christmas
for just Irie-kun and I alone.
I feel like I'm dreaming.
Maybe it's the most pleasing present
I've ever gotten for Christmas.
Love, love.
Love, love, love.
Satomi.
Merry Christmas.
- No way!- Yes way!
Welcome, what can I do for you to day?
Welcome.
Santa! Santa?
Oh, Just this way.
Okay, it's...
right here
You've got it!
It's the last one too. That's so lucky!
YES!
That's it. I'm going to buy a cake.
'Cause, Despite this 'Christmasy' feeling in the air...
It's just too much of a waste when there's no cake.
There's probably one at a corner store right now, so I've got to...
There's one.
What?
Cake.
Merry Christmas!
What? Oh my god! Why? Why? Why?
It's a present from Santa Claus.
Yeah right.
Then... is it from you...?
Who else would bring it?
Did you possibly think of me
and bring this cake back for me?
You have a really over-inflated ego.
The cake seller cried and clung onto me.
The seller's shift won't end until the last one is sold.
Wait for me, Kotoko! You'll be stuffing your face with delicious food!
Merry Christmas!
Make a wish!
That's for birthdays.
Huh?
For birthdays?
Let's surprise her.
Naoki, thank you.
I didn't do this for you.
But this cake is for two.
What a coincidence.
Hey, I'll give you this Santa.
Whatever.
What, it's dark.
Just make a wish anyway.
C'mon.
You make the wish.
Really?
