The chapter started with Atsumu and Kuze looking for Azusa and Karino.
The graduation ceremony for the third year students is about to begin, but they cannot be found.
While Azusa was resting with eyes closed, a butterfly made a stop on his head.
Karino chased the butterfly away. Azusa was angry because Karino woke him up.
*********
The third year students started taking graduation photos.
Tatsumi's mother also came to watch him giving graduation speech as a representative of the graduates.
She was so moved by the fact that this excellent child who always did his best, but at the same time trying to keep a low profile.
(But Tatsumi said that he actually planned it)
During the photo shooting session, Tatsumi asked Amamiya to help him with the speech.
Amamiya asked why and Tatsumi said he was waiting for the devil to mess up his happiness.
Atsumu, who was still looking for Azusa and Karino heard their voices.
They were still fighting with each other.
Atsumu found out that it was them and said that “you two are really together.”
Kuze also said in a weird way that “you two are really close.”
They both denied that they are not together.
Karino also teased Kuze that “until when are you going to be Atsumu's henchman?”
(And Karino called him “Kuze-chan”. Hahahaha, the two are so funny)
Inukai is taking pictures for everyone with his camera.
As he wa shouting to everyone to look at the camera and smiled, Kuze turned his head and gave Karino a kiss!
(Karino made a disgusted face and Kuze laughed)
Kuze and Atsumu were posting for photo.
Azusa and Karino squeezed Kuze out together and finally became a three-person photo shoot.
Seeing everyone so happy, Taisho wanted to join in and wrapped around Azusa.
Karino saw Taisho and Azusa posting together, he turned around and left.
Azusa asked Karino why he left without telling and Azusa followed him.
The game in class 2-1 continued in shuffle mode because the king card wasn’t found.
Some people wanted the game to start officially, but it was rejected by the Game Committee with the decadent excuse that the king card had not yet been found.
Everyone lived in this status-less state.
Karino and Azusa ran into Kagura before the graduation ceremony started.
They asked him why he wasn't there for the ceremony and the time was almost up.
Kagura said he was a bit late because he tidied up Eno’s stuffs.
Eno's injury was treated as an accident.
Taisho wanted to apologize to Eno for hurting him.
Eno told him not to apologize because he had to apologize for something too.
At that moment, Akio and Nakatomi behind him were shouting at Kagura to hurry up.
Before Kagura left, he wished that Karino and Azusa treat each other nicely.
(Azusa denied that they have good relationship hahaha)
At the same time, Tatsumi was going to attend the graduaton.
As if he heard Azusa's voice, he searched around and regretted not being able to tease Azusa at last.
Suddenly, somebody dragged him away from behind and Tastumi disappeared.
On the other side, the paper bags and armbands of the game committee members were burning on the ground.
It turned out that the game committees were actually the third-year students Akio and Nakatomi and Kagura.
Inukai and Anji didn‘t want that those regretful bad things are passed on to the next generation.
They hope that this game could be a chance for reconciliation.
At the graduation ceremony, Atsumu, as a current student, gave a speech to his seniors.
Azusa and Karino escaped and started fighting with each other again.
Azusa told Karino not to follow him.
Karino said he didn’t, he just wanted to go this way.
Azusa teased him, "What a waste of such nice cherry blossom! Alright, it is also ok if you want to follow me…”
When Azusa turned around, Karino was gone.
Azusa started to get nervous and shouted for Karino: where are you, bastard?
He even called Karino's name – Kouhei!
Karino was hiding behind a tree and asked Azusa “what’s up”.
Azusa saw Karino and tears falling down.
Karino asked Azusa why he was crying.
Azusa said he didn't.
Karino wanted to look at his face. He blocked Azusa’s way and finally saw the tears.
Then Karino kissed Azusa.
They didn't know what they were going to do.
Karino suggested why not simply go for a random train journey without having a destination.
Kyoko saw them sneaking off again together.
“On this beautiful day when the sun is shining and the snow is melting, I would like to congratulate everyone on their graduation.
What is it like to be a student?
Was it happy or painful?
For me, there were many painful experiences.
However, I have don’t hate anyone, because we are simply creatures who are swayed by the circumstances given and the position we are in,
where anyone can be a victim or a perpetrator.
In the process of environmental changes and mutual contact between people with different positions, we understand ourselves, forgive others, and find irreplaceable people.
It is not the person who should change, but the environment.
We should work together towards the goal of creating an environment where everyone can respect each other.
The seniors are next to embark on a new journey.
The difficulties encountered may be even more irrational, insurmountable and unchangeable than they do now.
I hope you will remember what you learned at this school, the one that tore us apart and bridged us back together...”
10 years later.
Atsumu returned to his alma mater as a teacher.
The female students loved him and thought he was cute and liked to poke him in the face.
Atsumu felt that the students didn’t take him seriously.
His former teacher said that he was loved by everyone.
The teacher didn't expect Atsumu to come back to teach.
Atsumu said he wanted to contribute to the children of the future
Back at the home where Kuze and Atsumu live together.
It's been 5 years since the two lived together after graduating from college.
Kuze went from a big company to a venture capital firm.
Atsumu told him that the students at school are nice kids.
He also received hand-made snacks from students.
And Kuze is still the same possessive person.
He wants to have Atsumu's body and mind all to himself.
On the TV, it is announced that the member of parliament Karino (Kouhei’s father) is unable to participate in the election due to health reasons.
In a car, Tatsumi asked someone for help because this was the last task of Mr Karino as a politician.
That person asked what the payment would be.
Tatsumi said a number but didn't get a reply.
That person said it's not a matter of quantity.
That person asked Tatsumi if he had ever “played himself”, and hhe replied occasionally.
That person also said that if it's occasional, ‘the colour shouldn’t be that strong”, he warned Tatsumi not to lie.
Tatsumi asked if he hates bad kids.
The person answered him: No, I like him the most.
(So, you guys know who is that person.)
A bike darted past the car.
It's the reporter Azusa who just got a good story.
He came back to report to his boss and was supposed to start writing the story.
But he went out again and said he had another target.
In the middle of an interview.
The hostess introduced Karino (Kouhei), who is likely to run for office.
He is the son of a congressman, 27 years old, graduated from the University of K, a pure elite, and very popular with his good looks, and asked if he would run in this election.
Karino said that he would announce it on the official occasion, and hoped that the reporters would not ask questions here, which would cause trouble to others.
The female fans were all swooning and thought he was such a gentleman
An older man next to Azusa and Azusa expressed their displeasure together.
Hearing the sound, Karino and Azusa exchanged glances
The same old tit-for-tat.
Azusa was at the front door of a high-class apartment ( He only said "it's me".)
After going up to the door, Karino and Azusa started being intimate.
Karino fished out a hidden recorder from Azusa’s cloth.
Karino stripped Azusa naked and pushed him down.
Azusa teased him, "Can't you wait?”
Karino said he wouldn't let him wear any cloth here.
Azusa smiled and said: “I'll keep trying to catch your weakness.”
The game continues for both of them.
Both living in their own worlds, but always intertwined
In a classroom, Atsumu was teaching.
Two girls were whispering:
"Do you know a game that's popular among friends these days?"
"Eh, what's that?"
"Listen it's a game where you can make yourself someone else."
"Eh ~ it feels so interesting, what game is it?"
"I heard it's called caste game"
