[002-1] Kyoko: --I always thought
that the reason
my heart beat so furiously on Valentine’s Day
was from giving chocolates.

Sho: Right?
Girls: . . .It looks expensive. . .
The
decorations look more expensive than the flowers. . .
[009-5] Sho: It’s because it’s a
bunch of the kind of stuff you like.
[010-1] Sho: Of course you’re going
to like it.
Kyoko: !?

Sho: We’ve been together a
long time.
[011-3] Sho: I’m the only one who
knows that you’ve never dated.
I’m the only one who
could congratulate you.
I’m congratulating
you as a lifelong friend.
[012-1] Sho: On your
becoming the Vie Ghoul vocalist’s girlfriend.
[012-3] Ogata: EHHHHH!?
[012-4] Kyoko: Wh-
[012-5] Kyoko: What the hell!?
Omose: Kyoko-chan. . .!
[013-1] Omose: You’re going out with VG’s vocalist!?
[No
way!! That’s amazing!!]
Ohara: [You
really do have a connection to Fuwa-kun!!]
Omose: [How did you meet him!?]
Caption: [He’s
bewitching, and beautiful, he might not be human!]
Caption: [A
chorus of townspeople (all women)]
Kyoko: We’re
not dating!!
Caption: [Omose-san
and Ohara-san don’t know about the stalking
incident.]
[013-2] Kyoko: Hey,
you!!
SOUND RUSTLE
Kyoko: Why
am I going out with the Beagle!?
[013-3] Kyoko: [What
kind of sick joke is this!?]
What’s been going on
with you since yesterday!? You’re treating me like a
stupid woman who thinks of nothing but love affairs!!
[How annoying!!]
Yashiro: .
. .Hm?
[013-4] Yashiro: So Kyoko-chan saw Fuwa yesterday. . .
Ren: . . .
Yashiro: [Huh?]
Then
she must have given him the chocolates then. . .
Sho: [. . .Well. . .]
That can’t be helped,
can it?
[Treating you like a
stupid lovesick woman.]
[013-5] Sho: He’s given you the
run-around,
and
yet you still give him chocolate that says “Heart to Beagle.”
Chocolates: [Heart
to Beagle]
Caption: [You
must really like Visual Kei.]
Kyoko: I’m
telling you!!
[Are
you still talking about that!?]
[014-1] Kyoko: It
didn’t say “Heart to Beagle”!!
[014-2] Kyoko: This
is what it really said!!
SOUND CLICK
Chocolates: (Picture
of Beagles) e ro*
*TL Note: These are hiragana that were part of the original message, which
you’ll see soon.
[014-3] Kyoko: Read
it!!
SOUND SMACK
Sho: ?
Beagle he-ro?*
[What the hell is
that?]
*TL Note: The hiragana for “he” is read as “e” only when used as a particle meaning “to/towards,” which is why
he pronounces the “h” now.
Kyoko: And!
[014-4] Kyoko: If
you replace all the missing pieces. . .
SOUND SNAP
CLICK SNAP CLICK SNAP
Kyoko: What
it really said
was
this!!
[014-5] SOUND BAM!!
Chocolates: Go to Hell, Beagle (Hatred)
(Jigoku e ochiro)
[014-6] Both: !!!
[015-1] Chocolate: Hatred
[016-1] Kyoko: [Got
it!?]
I had to make these
chocolates for the Beagle because he held my sorrow and
weakness!!
[Combined with a lot of hatred!]
They’re chocolates that will condemn him to hell when
he eats them!!
[016-2] Kyoko: Remember
this till the day you die!! Stupid Sho!!
[If you treat me like
an idiot again, I’ll curse you into the next century!!]
[016-3] SOUND POINT
[017-1] Kyoko: . . .Gasp. . .!
[017-3] Kyoko: Tsuruga-san!!
[Shit!! God dammit, me!!]
Tsuruga-san is here, too!!
[Aaaagh. . .!!]
[He’s looking at me
with no expression!!]
I was so pissed off that I revealed I made chocolates for the Beagle!!
[018-1] Kyoko: Even if he held my weakness,
and even if they were cursed chocolates,
I
still gave in to my enemy!!
Wh. . .what should I do.
. .!?
[018-2] Kyoko: He’ll definitely be fed up with me!!
Yashiro: . . .
. . .Those chocolates. . .
[018-3] Yashiro: .
. .Were for VG’s vocalist. .
.
VG’s vocalist. . .I mean, sure, I wonder how
things got to that point, but. . .
[018-4] Yashiro: Whatever the case,
Just
finding out that they weren’t meant for Fuwa. . .
[020-3] Chocolates: Go
to Hell, Beagle! (Hatred)
[020-4] Ohara: Th. . .that was unexpected. . .
Omose: . . .Did
Kyoko-chan really make that kind of chocolate. . .?
[020-5] Omose: What in the world happened
between her and VG’s vocalist.
. .?
Ohara: I
don’t know. . .
But.
. .
[020-6] Ohara: It
seems like she was forced into it. . .
[021-2] Kyoko: Wh-
[021-3] Kyoko: What should I do!?
[021-4] Kyoko: I’m so scared I can’t even look at Tsuruga-san!!
I wonder what he must think.
That
I’m a coward!? A loser!? A chicken to end all chickens!?
Caption: [Kyoko-speak
for the most chickeny
chicken.]
Kyoko: [Ahh. . .]
I’m
not like that, Tsuruga-san!!
[021-5] Kyoko: Those were circumstances that defied common sense. . .!!
[Aaahhhh!]
But
there’s no way he’d believe me. . .!!
[But! But!]
[022-1] Kyoko: He was mad at me for being so easily
deceived about the Corn thing. . .!!
[022-2] Kyoko: If I try to tell him the truth, the same
thing will happen all over again!!
[If
I mess it up, he’ll think of me as some sort of religious freak!!]
No!!
[Why do I have to be scolded!? I’m the victim!!]
[022-4] Sho: . . .You
sure are pathetic. . .
[023-1] Kyoko: .
. .What did you say. . .?
[023-2] Sho: Well, you are you, after all. . .
[023-3] Sho: I thought you’d finally
caught yourself a man,
but
it was like this. . .
. . .You’ll. . .
[023-4] Sho: probably never get a man
for the rest of your life. . .
[How pitiable. . .]
SOUND HEARTFELT
Kyoko: [Shut
up!]
[Don’t say it all
heartfelt!]
I don’t need your
pity!!
[023-5] Kyoko: I’m
well aware of my difficulties in that area!!
[And whose fault is
it!?]
I’ll
live alone, strong, wisely, sturdily!!
[024-1] Sho: . . .
Kyoko: Having
your pity pisses me off even more!!
Could you just act
like a moron like usual!?
[024-2] Sho: . . .
. . .But it can’t be helped.
[I do pity you.]
[024-3] Sho: Even though it’s
Valentine’s Day,
all
you had was this creepy guy to give chocolates to.
Kyoko: How
rude!
I’ve never given
chocolates to as many people as I did this year!
There
were ten people just from Dark Moon alone!
[024-4] Sho: . . .People
from Dark Moon?
Kyoko: [Yeah!]
I gave those
actresses who were here before chocolates, too.
[And
the director!]
[024-5] Sho: . . .
[025-2] Kyoko: . . .?
Sho: . . .
[025-3] Yashiro: .
. .Wha. . .
What.
. .?
[025-4] Sho: . . .Did
you. . .
give
them to Tsuruga Ren, too?
Kyoko: Eh!?
[025-5] Kyoko: I.
. .
I didn’t give any to Tsuruga-san. . .
I mean. . .
[025-6] Kyoko: I
didn’t give him any chocolates. . .
[026-1] Sho: . . .HAH.
. .?
[026-2] Sho: . . .So
that means
[026-3] Sho: You gave him something
that wasn’t chocolates, right. . .?
Kyoko: Discovered!!!
Why is he making a joke of this!?
Moko-san just let it pass!!
[026-4] Sho: . . .
. . .What did you give him. . .?
[026-5] Kyoko: . . .Th. . .
That’s none of your
business!!
[I
don’t have to tell you!!]
[027-4] Yashiro: .
. .I wonder. . .
[027-5] Yashiro: .
. .What they’re talking about. . .
[This whole time. . .]
Ren: . . .I don’t know. .
.
Yashiro: They looked over here earlier,
so I think they might be talking about Ren,
but. . .
[028-1] Ren: . . .
Ogata: Um.
. .
[028-2] Ogata: Excuse
me, everyone.
We’re all ready to
roll, here.
Could you get on set?
Yashiro: !
Ren: . . .Oh.
. .
[028-3] Ren: Sure.
Omose-san,
Ohara-san!
Omose: Ah!
Okay,
coming!
[028-4] Ogata: Uh. . .m. . .
Kyoko-san. . .
Ren: Oh.
[028-5] Ren: I’ll get. . .
