Nagatsuki Yoru & Satsuki Aoi - Gardenia Flower
01 - ドラマ「cute＆cool」
00:00:18Aoi: Me? And Yoru? As image models for a fashion brand?Kurotsuki-san: Yeah, it had to be the two of you said the other party, as they made offer rather enthusiastically.Kurotsuki-san: Hahaha, what are those worried faces for? I have some documents for you to look over. So could you please take a look at them first?Then you can decide, about whether you’ll accept the offer.Aoi: Wahh! No, um thank you!It is a great offer, and Kurotsuki-san and Tsukishiro-san already confirmed it.So I intend to stay positive and do my best!But, you know, if I’m approached for a job in fashion.. and me and Yoru who aren’t even a duo… It’s a bit surprising.Yoru: So Aoi thinks so too?If You was asked I would’ve understood.Aoi: For Gravi.. it would be Koi, right?Even so, I wonder… Why did it have to be us..?Yoru: I couldn’t help but wonder about that too, right?Aoi: Right..?Yoru: Ah! But of course I want to do my best too. So please show me the materials as well.Kurotsuki-san: I understand, to fulfil your request, here is the information! What do you think? I’m sure you’ll understand why its you guys.Aoi: Thank you very much…Yoru: Thank you!Aoi: That’s a very thick file…Yoru: That file has been making its presence known for a while now! All of those files were documents. Amazing..Kurotsuki-san: Hahaha! The other party really wanted to ask you two to do it. They were very passionate about it!00:02:02Kurotsuki-san: Do the two of you know this brand?Aoi: Yes. It’s a brand that’s become very well-know recently. Magazines, etc. I often see advertisements for them around town.Yoru: I remember seeing a big sign by the TsukiPro shop the other day!Kurotsuki: Yeah, they’re becoming popular now.A duo of designers who originally worked in completely different fields started making clothes as a hobby, and they went viral on social media (SNS).It’s a brand with a story like that. They only have one physical store, and their main focus is online sales. They’re good at advertising and it might be that two people will be on that billboard Yoru saw.Yoru: That’s… Ah, just thinking about it makes me a little nervous.Kurotsuki: Ha haha! I get it, I get it! I don’t want to put any pressure on anyone.The concept for the new series that will be developed next season is on the second page of the document.Aoi and Yoru flip the pagesAoi: “Our goal is to create something cute & cool that can be worn by anyone, regardless of gender or age” (Aoi is reading the information on the page)Yoru: It’s not too strange, and it’s something that blends into your everyday life.Aoi: There’s lots of designs..Yoru: So there are..Heh..I see… hmmm…Aoi: Ah! Look! This parker is oversized and the silhouette has been adjusted so that it can be worn by both men and women.Yoru: Yes! I like that one too!Ah, and the colours on this jacket series are nice too! The muted colours make it easier for older people to wear.Aoi: Ah, you’re right. Eeh Whoa this wrap skirt is designed with men in mind too. You can wear it with pants or just wrap it around your neck. It looks fun!Yoru: I thought so too! I feel like it’s really difficult to get the balance right with these things. It’s really good!Aoi: Hmm.. this is just my amateur opinion, but I think it’s very well balanced. The silhouette is a little unusual, but it’s not eccentric and has a refined finish.Yoru: So it will blend into everyday life clothing? That’s amazing right?Wah! Kurotsuki-san! I’m sorry!Aoi: Ah. I couldn’t help but stare at the documents.Kurotsuki-san: Don’t worry, watching you two have fun makes me feel reassured.Well, the points that the two of you just made was exactly what the other party’s representative spoke about so passionately.I was just about to explain the job to you, but this saves me the trouble.Aoi: It’s so easy to understand,.Yoru: I can see why they’re so good at advertising.Yoru: It seems like this brand has a clear idea of what they want to communicate, and what they need to communicate.Kurotsuki-san: Yes, yes… I’d like to emulate that. Because this is no time to be impressed, I’ll continue explaining!Yoru & Aoi: Yes!Kurotsuki: As you can see, this line-up is deliberately non-targeted. No, to be more precise, it is non-targeted and all-targeted.“We want people of all ages and genders to be able to wear our clothes. So we’re planning to release a very exciting line-up” (Kurotsuki is reading the papers)So it’s not just about product development. The fact that you were approached was also part of that.Could you please take a look at the next page?They flip to the next page00:05:48Aoi: Whoa, what an impressive line-up. Not just models, but comedians, announcers, soccer players and cooking experts!Yoru: There’s also novelist Minamiya-sensei! Their new work was so interesting!So…?Kurotsuki-san: The same outfits would be worn by people of all ages and in all different industries and photographed. Seems like fun doesn’t it?Yoru: So, does that mean all of these people are the image models for this campaign!?Kurotsuki-san: That’s correct!Aoi: Uwaa… This is a spectacular line-up in another sense. Which shows how much effort has gone into creating this standard!Yoru: Yes, I feel the same.Yoru: Among this impressive group.. we will be included?That’s a big responsibility…Aoi: No doubt about it…Yoru: I wonder why we were chosen for the idol category?Kurotsuki-san: Hey, hey! You guys are all top idols, aren’t you? Even without your impressive idol skills, I think you have the skill and experience to rival any other model.Well, there’s an even better reason than that! If you go to the next page.They go to the next page00:07:10-Aoi: This is… a picture of a gardenia flower (Kuchinashi no Hana)?Kurotsuki-san: Yes, it’s the flower from the stage you appeared on last year; Kuchinash no Hana. Set in the Waseda-Keio Japanese dance school. Aoi was playing the role of de grandson of the master, and Yoru was playing the role of Dashi.Aoi: Yes. I had a lot of training in traditional Japanese dance. It was tough, but I learned a lot from the performance!-Yoru: We’ve been doing dance, but Japanese dance has completely different movements and etiquette than traditional dancing. Those were the days when I struggled with muscle pain. How nostalgic!Aoi: I remember that at the end of the first week of practice, my knees were hurting.Yoru: That’s right! Because of the role, I had to give off the impression that I was more used to dancing than Aoi. That was it, I worked really hard!Aoi: Ahaha… I had a hard time too. Not only in dance, but in the play too. In everyday scenes I played an ordinary man. But when I dance, there are a lot of feminine moves, so it was more gentle.Yoru: (Has a realisation moment) You don’t mean...?Kurotsuki-san: Yes! That play was streamed online at the end of last year. That caught the other party’s eye. They said that the two actors acting was a perfect fit for this concept!Aoi & Yoru: Whoa!Kurotsuki-san: Iyaaa... it’s amazing isn’t it? Sometimes that a play can lead to a new job that may seem completely different at first glance.Even so... I still think back to it sometimes, when you guys appeared in Yumemigusa when you still had little acting experience.At that time you weren’t only desperately trying to act, but also to thrive on the stage itself. The more you performed, the stronger you got. Now you’re even taking on new challenges on stage. And that challenge leads to the next challenge.Hm Hm! Things are going very well! I’m very excited.Aoi & Yoru: Kurotsuki-san…. (touched)Kurotsuki-san: Anyway! That’s why Tsukishiro and I would really like to take up this offer! What do you think?Aoi: Yoru…?Yoru: Aoi.(They decided with those two sentences)Aoi & Yoru: Very well, thank you!The intention behind this ‘yorishiku onegaishimasu’ was to confirm the offer in this case.
Nagatsuki Yoru & Satsuki Aoi - Gardenia Flower
02 -ドラマ「梔子の花」
Aoi is dancing to this music, the soft footsteps are him moving alongMinato-san: Alright! Let’s run that down from the top again!Aoi: Eh? Again…?Minato-san: ‘Eh’ is not the right answer, ‘yes’ is!Right now I’m not your grandma, I’m your teacher!Aoi: Yes… But I think I can finish it with one more try!I have a seminar drinking party after this..Minato-san: Yes! Get ready!Aoi: Eh? Yes!---Aoi: Ah… It’s finally over..Yoru: Ehe, you were pretty pressured huh?Aoi: Minato-san… She’s usually a kind grandma, but when it comes to dancing, she’s very strict.00:01:18
Yoru: Hehe~ Your master wants you to follow in her footsteps properly~ ? I think that her being strict is her expecting a lot from you. Give it your all~I also love se-no dance. It flows naturally like a flower.Yoru: Uhm.. I mean it as a compliment, what kind of face are you making?Aoi: Hmmm.. Even though they say I have talent for Japanese dance.. it’s because of my face..00:01:43*
Aoi: Compared to traditional Japanese dance..Yoru: Hm.Aoi: The music is different, and Kabuki conveys a strong feeling of femininity when performing it.Yoru: Are you not happy about having this talent?Aoi: Ah.. Sorry.. I know I shouldn’t say that to you. I think Minato-san’s dancing is beautiful and cool. But… but.. I’m kind of embarrassed..Yoru: Heh.. I see..00:02:18
Yoru: There you go..Aoi: That is!Yoru: It looks familiar right?00:02:29
That’s the same sense* your master used.. I can still see her dancing… It was the best..Aoi: ….Grandma...grandma..I…I..!---Aoi is humming their song Gardenia Flower while pouring teaYoru: Sorry to keep you waiting, I’m back!Aoi: Welcome back, I’ve just finished putting on the tea.Aoi is walking over to Yoru with their tea cupsAoi: Hm? What’s that?Yoru: I made some cookies to take to work yesterday, but I got too excited and made too many!
I would like Aoi to help me finish them.Aoi: I would be happy to help you, thank you for the foodA handmade gift? That’s very diligent of you.00:04:10*
Yoru: As the chairman of the Setsubun support committee, that is!Aoi: Not that kind of bean!Yoru: Haha!Even though Aoi says that, you also bring in homemade food from time to time.Aoi: Yeah.. as I was saying it I realised ‘Oh, me too’.Whether it’s baking or cooking, I feel like I can lose myself in the process of using my hands.Yoru: It’s a way to escape reality, right?Aoi: I tend to make them as a way to relieve stress. If I can’t eat them all, it would be a waste, so I end up giving them away.Yoru: I completely understand!Aoi: Thanks to this, I give off the impression that I love cooking.Yoru: But you love it, don’t you?Aoi: I guess so~Ah! I think it’s about time.Aoi is filling their cups with the tea he preparedAoi: Here.Yoru: Thank you~Aoi: Now… to tomorrow’s shoot...uh... Cheers?Yoru: Hehe.. Cheers!Aoi: Then, I’ll also have a cookie. Thank you for the food~Yoru: Ah, the smell is so good! This is really good tea!Aoi: I know right? Shu-san recommended it to me.Yoru: It’s surprisingly delicious!Aoi: Hehe, Yoru’s cookies are delicious too!Yoru: Thank you! Then..Aoi: So.. me and Yoru are the image models..Yoru: You were surprised right?Aoi: Hey, what did You think?Yoru: He said “Why wasn’t it me!?”Aoi: That sounds about right..Yoru: Jokes aside.. he was very supportive. He cheered me on and told me to do my best.What about Arata?Aoi: “I have to get a commemorative picture of you in front of the signboard” he said.Yoru: That’s nice~Aoi: “Why not just do it with the real me?” I asked. “The key-point that it’s a cool-looking Aoi-kun” he said. It wasn’t decided that we would become a signboard.Yoru: Like that huh, hahahaSatisfied sighAoi: If it were the me from back then, I would have tried to act cool. If I had been told that I would become such a big star with all these pretty clothes, I would be more than nervous, I would be terrified.Yoru: Eh?Aoi: So… Even if I’m called the prince, fashion is another matter.I’ve never really considered myself fashionable, so when I get an offer like this, it feels a bit presumptuous.Wouldn’t it be ridiculous to someone who is really fashionable? I was overthinking all sorts of unnecessary things..Anyway, I think I was just going around in circles.Yoru: Ah… well, I feel the same way.To me, fashion is something only flashy groups like You or Arata can do. I thought it was something that had no connection to someone as plain as me.Yeah, I used to think that way. It was embarrassing. Even if I was interested, I couldn’t speak up.00:07:55*
Aoi: It’s the same as the main character of Kuchinashi no Hana (TL:Gardenia Flower)There’s no rule that traditional Japanese dance can only be done by women. I have my own idea and view, but I do care a lot about what others think.Yoru: I actually love dancing, but I can’t admit it and I don’t want to admit it.Aoi: Mh. While I was unmoving like that, I ended up sending off someone important to me, and I couldn’t show them my best dance.00:08:31
Performing, traditional dance… and talent..Yoru: That’s both of us isn’t it?Aoi: Maybe so… While you’re worrying and thinking about things, time and the environment already changed.I doesn’t wait for you, so you have to get moving along.Yoru: The way others see you can sometimes be influenced by your own prejudice.Aoi: That’s right. People might pick it up for a while, but soon it will become normal and people will forget about it. There’s no point in worrying too much.The things you want to do and the things you love should be the most important to you.Yoru: Yeah! I want to tell my younger self to not worry so much. That it’s okay to be interested in fashion without much knowledge. There’s nothing to be ashamed of, just give it a try!I hope I can express those feelings in tomorrow’s shoot!Aoi: Mh! Let’s do our best.---At the shoot locationStaff: Satsuki-san, Nagatsuki-san, you can join us!Aoi: From Tsukino Entertainment Production, I’m Six Gravity’s Satsuki Aoi!Nice to meet you!Yoru: And from Procellarum, I’m Nagatsuki Yoru!

There are some people joining after this, so I’d say we are about halfway done.Aoi: This is half of it? Once again, the scale is so big..Kurotsuki-san: Recently, I’ve been doing a lot of shoots with small groups of people, so it feels like it’s been a while since I’ve been on set. This mixed feeling, I like this cool feeling!Yoru: Kurotsuki-san, you also like location shoots, don’t you?Staff 2: Hahaha, it’s a little messy but the flow is there. So don’t worry.

I will take a break!Yoru: Ah, Aoi~ well done so far~Aoi: Ahaha Yoru, well done~This hectic schedule, it feels like we’ve been here for a while.Yoru: Right?It’s a densely packed schedule. Time goes by so quickly, but it also feels like its passing slowly. It’s a strange feeling.Aoi: I understand, it must mean that you’re concentrating hard.Kurotsuki-san: Aiyo~ Good job, both of you. Thank you for your hard work.Aoi: Kurotsuki-san! Thank you for your hard work.Yoru: Thank you for your hard work.Kurotsuki-san: There’s only a bit left until we are completely finished.

There are still many areas where I need to work hard.I will proudly show you only what I can convey!Translator Notes00:01:43
The words Aoi uses is ‘nichibu’ (alternatively nihon-buyo) which is traditional, or japanese classic dance, which originated during the Edo Period and later became the basis for Kabuki Theater. Kabuki on the other hand is another form of traditional japanese dance that has many feminine undertones.Kabuki dance:Kabuki dance is a stylized, dance-heavy classical Japanese theatre art form that combines drama, music, and spectacular costumes and makeup to tell stories and express emotions. At its core, kabuki relies on rhythmic, dance-like movements to define characters and advance the plot. Key features include dramatic "mie" poses, elaborate onnagata (male actors playing female roles), and specialized music like nagauta and joruri.00:02:23
In Japanese traditional dance, a sense (furi) is a key element that uses symbolic movements and gestures to express emotions, tell a story, or depict scenery, transforming the dancer into a part of nature or an embodiment of a social condition.This expressive "sense" can include the dynamic use of a dancer's kimono sleeve to show love or the graceful manipulation of a fan to represent wind or waves00:04:10
Firstly, Aoi says that Yoru is very diligent for bringing his handmade cookies: ‘Mame’ but mame is also the same word in sound for bean. Hence why Yoru jokingly continues;Secondly, Yoru is in charge of Setsubun every year, where he takes the lead in bean throwing, this event we know as Soy-ya in the fandom!Setsubun (節分, lit. "seasonal division") is a festival held on February 2, 3 or 4, one day before the start of spring according to the Japanese lunar calendar. It is not a national holiday. For many centuries, people have been performing rituals with the purpose of chasing away evil spirits at the start of spring.In modern days, the most commonly performed setsubun ritual is the throwing of roasted beans around one's house and at temples and shrines across the country. When throwing the beans, you are supposed to shout "Oni wa soto! Fuku wa uchi!" ("Devils out, happiness in"). Afterwards you should pick up and eat the number of beans, which corresponds to your age.00:07:55
From the stage they performed called ‘Kushinachi no Hana’ referenced in the first drama track.00:08:31
The three words Aoi uses are ‘koukai’ , ‘setsubon’ , ‘saiki’ . There’s many different meanings to these words but in the context they’re talking about I think the 3 I picked fit the best. For koukai, it would mean to show a public display or to present so I changed it to performing.Performing, traditional dance… and talent..
Fuduki Kai & Shimotsuki Shun - Crazy Buddy
01ドラマ「Do you wanna hang out with me-」
Kai is clipping Shun’s nailsShun: Uwaa~ biiiiggg sighKai: Oi oi, that’s a big yawn huh, Shun?Shun: Ehehe~ I can’t do anything about it! It’s been a while since Kai and I got a day off together!00:00:41
The dazzling early summer light streaming in through the window~ and the tea Kai made for us on the table~ On my lap the princess who had just woken up from a nap and is in such a good mood!!In such a peaceful situation, it was hard not to feel sleepy~ Right~ ? (TL: He says the dayo~ to Shiroda)Kai: Right, right. But even besides that, our Demon Lord doesn’t want to work~ Shun-sama seems sleepy all year round, though~ Hehmore clippingKai: Up! Come give me your hand-Shun: Yeee ~ sKai: That’s a very nice answer! Hey, even if its just nail clippers, you’re still entrusting your body to a blade.. so can’t you be a bit more nervous~ ? (TL: what a way to say be wary of him in a teasing manner)clipping his nails throughout this segment00:01:16
Shun: That’s because it’s none other than Kai taking care of me~ So I have the utmost faith in you~
It was so comforting that I ended up feeling sleepy big yawnKai: Are you making fun of me?Shun: That’s because it’s so comforting~ Don’t you agree, princess?Shun: See~ the princess too.. I see I see! She agrees!Shun is petting and playing with Shiroda while Kai is clipping his nailsKai: Ahhh! Stop!! So cute…!Shun: Kai!! Aren’t you a deredere~Kai: Ah, I’ve been completely deredere for ten years now, isn’t that right~ ?Shun: The fact you say that with so much pride shows your growth.Kai: It’s not my growth, its my love...And we’re finished! clipping Shun’s nailsI’m going to file them down now.Shun: Yee~ sShun is picking up his tea cupShun: Mmh~ tastyKai is hummingShun: You’re having fun right, Kai~ ?Kai: Haa, right, the process is fun. Look! They’re shiny now~See~ Shun-kun is not just effortlessly beautiful! (TL: Implying it’s also due to Kai’s efforts)Shun: Mhm! That’s right!Kai: The fact he himself readily acknowledges it is a very Shun-sama quality!Shun: That’s because I don’t lie. I think the reason I’m beautiful is because that’s the way the world works. (TL: another way to phrase it would be; that’s just the truth of the world)Kai: When you say that’s the truth, that’s a bit heavy.. (TL: he means ridiculous)Shun: Please accept this serious truth with your whole body~Kai: Ah! I see then, I’ll hold it close and crush it.Shun: Why would you crush it… :cKai: Hahaha, but returning to our previous topic, your appearance is very beautiful. But you’re lazy and don’t take of yourself at all.Shun: I’m a very natural person~ , I love things the way they are!Kai: Right right, that’s why I feel a sense of accomplishment. Like I’m using the best freshly caught ingredients to create the best dish with my own hands.Shun: The fans get to enjoy Kai’s delicious me that he prepared, thank you chef~Kai: I’m honoured to be thanked by the ingredients!Kai: Alright, it’s time for the other hand.Shun: Yee~ sShun: Well, I don’t care what form it takes, I’m happy just to have Kai pay attention to me~So long as Kai is also enjoying it, then it’s fine!Kai: Oh~ ! So it’s a win-win situation. At first people thought Shun was forcing me to do this for him. When someone would walk in on us like this, they would say all sorts of things.. That doesn’t happen any more now.Shun: That’s true. The change in You’s reaction was really interesting to see!Kai: RightAt first he would always snap at me, saying things like; “Are you my mom!?” but then he started cooling down, instead of talking to me he would stare at me like he had something to say, but now he just ignores me.Shun: Hehe~ Humans are creatures of habit, so you could say that the past ten years have been a time when each of us have become a part of each other’s lives.Kai: A part of each other’s lives , huh~ ? That’s nice~Yosh~ I’ve finished.Shun: Thank you, Kai~Well then~00:05:16
Kai: Chi~ chi chi, we’re not done yet!Shun: Kai?Kai: I have a secret weapon today! Ta-da~ ! The other day, the make-up artist gave me some nail oil~An expensive item from a high-end overseas brand! Can I try this?Shun: Oh? Of course, I’ll be your guinea pig~Kai: Nice way to put it. Anyway, yay! Now, let’s begin the experiment!Shun: Yes~ sensei~Kai: Let’s see… don’t put too much on the base of your nails.. the oil gets on your hands. Then, massage it in from the base to the tips of your fingers.Shun: Mhh! This feels good.Kai: Really? That’s good! Now let’s move on to the other fingers.Kai is having a wonderful time putting oil on Shun’s nailbedsShun: You’re really enjoying this, aren’t you Kai~ ?Kai: Yes~ I’m having a great time~Well, the beauty industry is so complex and its so fun to hear about all the experiences.Shun: Normally, I would think the knowledge and effort gained in this way would be directed towards oneself.Kai: Well, appearance is important for idols. I do direct it at myself to some extent, but Shun-kun is definitely in a class of his own, and he’s worth polishing.This is.. You know, car enthusiasts polish their cars every weekend even if they’re not dirty? I think it’s similar to that feeling.Shun: I see???Kai: Don’t act like you don’t understand.That’s how it is~ It was a bad idea to use cleaning as an example for Shun-kun who is lazy~ There’s a psychological tendency to want to frequently touch up your favourite things, or maintain them.Shun: Ah I understand!I think arranging the Hajime merchandise altar in a certain way better expresses how precious Hajime is. Hajime’s expressions have softened recently, which is lovely, but his innocent expression from the early days of his career, when he wasn’t yet used to relying on everyone and hadn’t quite developed his tsundere personality, is also really lovely..!! His appearance is solid, isn’t it? Today, by arranging them in chronological order, I’m reminded of Hajime’s growth and the trajectory of my own love. I spend every night tending to the altar, thinking about how I’d like to make it into a memorial space. It’s similar to that, right?Kai: Aaah! It’s so long, so long! So long!!Shun: Sorry.. My love spilled out of my mind..Kai: It’s not just spilling, it’s leaking out every day!Shun: Ahh~ Hajime~~ I love you.Kai: Too much! Too much! Too much!Let’s go with the usual Hajime-LOVE vibe. But yeah, I think that’s pretty much spot on.That’s why I feel like I want to take care of Shun-kun!Shun: I understand! Kai too, he loves me too!Kai: Ah..! Yeah, that’s right..! I love you...yeah..Shun: That’s so heartless…Kai: Hehe~ Even so, I like to take care of everyone to release my own stress. You see, my younger siblings at home are all grown up now, and the younger ones in the unit don’t need much attention any more.I’m happy and proud, but that also means I have a lot of free time.Shun: Hehe~ That’s right. Kai’s younger sister and brother, as well as my children, have grown so much.Kai: Hey, while we seniors are relaxing like this, the others are working hard in their respective fields.As for me I don’t mind being able to relax a little more! Work a little, leader~Shun: Yeeee~ sKai: Those guys have become really reliable. Looking back it almost seeming like a lie that I had trouble with my co-stars.Shun: It’s not a lie. We were who we were back then, and we faced each and every on of those troubles one by one, which makes us who we are today.Failure, success, challenges, setbacks…We can learn and grow from every experience. That is one of the virtues we humans possess.Kai: No doubt about that… But..Shun: Oh?Kai: I guess you’re just being a bit idle. Let me take care of you for a bit!Shun: Uwa, Kai is so troublesome!Kai: Shun-kun that’s mean!Shun: A daughter leaves her parents home to live on her own.. You sound like a father seeing his daughter off.Kai: Ah, I know what you mean! That’s it! That’s it!Once their children are grown up, they can’t help but start keeping dogs and cats. I’m sure this is how parents feel!So… I’m the one who diligently takes care of the Demon Lord, who has an ancestry and an abnormally well-groomed coat, although I don’t know if he’s from Kyoto or the Demon World.Shun: Hehe~ Feel free to polish it to your heart’s content.Kai: Heh heh! Thank you!So! And that concludes the nail oil experiment! What do you think?
Shun: Hmmm.. Mhm! The nail massage itself felt amazing and my nails are 200% shinier than before. Kai, what do you think?Kai: Wow~ So beautiful, so beautiful. Amazing, I think I did a good job!Shun: Hihi, thank you!Hmm..Kai: Hm? Shun?Shun: Hey Kai, as a thank you for making them so beautiful, could you let me polish your nails sometime?Kai: Yes???Shun: Do you wanna hang out with me?On our next off-day let’s go on a date!Kai: Excuse me!?Translator Notes:00:00:41 Shun is talking about his princess Shiroda (his pet rabbit)00:01:16 (Shun’s phrasing is very vague so I changed it up to make sense)00:01:47 Shun calls Kai a deredere: (デレデレ) is a Japanese term, often used in fandom, for a character who is overly affectionate, sweet, and openly love-struck towards their love interest, not hiding their romantic feelings and being completely devoted to them.He is basically calling Kai out for his character gap at fawning over Shiroda.00:02:01
Shun is telling Kai how he can proudly say he’s become complacent and loving shows his character growth but Kai replies with its not my character growth but my familial/romantic love (愛 Ai) that’s grown.00:05:16
He’s saying tut-tut-tut.00:10:53
The way Kai means this description is like describing Shun as a very expensive cat breed with a proper pedigree and his fur being well taken care of.
