Himeno: Shut up!  Look at you, 

pg 4 
Himeno: For a BOY, you throw around pheremones too indiscriminately! 
(Chodo Doo--n) 
[school uniform pants] 

Mikoto: But it's so much fun, teasing these guys 
Himeno: And could you do something about the difference between your face and your mouth?! 
[Death by Explosion] 

Mikoto: I can't help it, I'm a guy 
Mikoto: (Anyways, it's their fault for mistaking me while I'm wearing pants) 

Himeno: Living in this world for 17 years 

Himeno: The princess-like Himeno 
Himeno: Declared by all the miraculously beautiful girl 
[Author's note: going overboard] 

Himeno: I, who has always been majestic, 

Himeno: For the first time, I met my match in beauty, who was.... 

pg 5 
Himeno: Of all people....a BOY 
Himeno: How can I stand this humiliation!! 
(Baki) 

Himeno: Fu...however........ 

Himeno: Sorry, but I don't have time to be getting angry over every little incident like this 
Himeno: Later, Mikoto 

Himeno: Fu, that's right, I'm over being satisfied with small fry 
Mikoto: ? 
Himeno: Because....because... 

Himeno: I have found the prince who is actually suitable for me ---!!!! 
Takayanagi: Welcome, Himeno-chan 

pg 6 
Himeno: The movie you recommended I rent last time was really good 
Takayanagi: Oh?  I'm glad 

Himeno: His name is Takayanagi-san 
Himeno: He works part-time at the video store and is a third-year at Genji High School 
Himeno: And the very lucky boy who will shortly have the privilege of being my boyfriend
[This girl...] 
 

Himeno: He's totally beautiful 
Himeno: Very well-proportioned, 
Himeno: A miracle dynamite hot guy 

Himeno: This high-grade guy is the appropriate type for myself 
Takayanagi: This is also really popular with girls, a love story 
Takayanagi: I hope your friends will like it 

Himeno: HA?  Friends? 
Mikoto: Waaa, Mikoto loves romance movies 

Takayanagi: Naturally, girls like these movies 
Mikoto: Do you have any other movies to recommend? 

pg 7 
Takayanagi: Hm, just wait a sec, I'll get the list of older films 
Mikoto: Thank you---! 

Himeno: ....................One second..... 
Himeno: I have to talk to you about something, come with me will you? 
Mikoto: I hope it will be settled with just talking? 

Takayanagi: Huh? Where did they go?  Mikoto-chan and friend 

[Yamada Park] 
Himeno: WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? 

pg 8 
Himeno: How far will you go to trample on my path to a happy youth! 
Mikoto: Oh, Himeno-chan, you make me sound so bad 
Himeno: Stop talking like a girl 

Himeno: But you're so fun to tease and your face starts popping with blood vessels 

Himeno: This....this guy...*%! 

Himeno: That's it!  If I tell Takayanagi you're really a guy, that'll be the end of it 
Mikoto: Go ahead 

Mikoto: But that will be like admitting that except for being a girl, your charm loses to mine 
(pikiiin) 

Himeno: ................. 
Himeno: Okay...... 

pg 9 
Himeno: (Guoooo)This time 
Himeno: This time we'll settle things for good! 
Himeno: A competition where I'll bet my pride as a woman! 

Himeno: The battle goes on until Valentine's Day!  The one who fells Takayanagi wins! 
Himeno: If you lose, you'll swear never to get in my way again! 
Mikoto: No way....what would I get out of fighting for a guy... 
Himeno: If I lose I'll do anything you want! 
Mikoto: (Anything...) 

[Total confidence] 
Mikoto: OK!  This sounds interesting 
Mikoto: It's a promise then, Himeno-chan 

Himeno: (Nuuuu) 

pg 10 
Himeno: Just watch
Himeno: Takayanagi-san is tougher than he looks, he hasn't bowed at all to my will yet 
Himeno and Mikoto : HELLO!! 
Himeno: My self-respect won't let me lose this
Takayanagi: We...Welcome you guys are good friends, aren't you? 

Himeno: Um, this is in thanks for all your help, please have it with everyone from the store 

Takayanagi: Oh, thanks a lot, Himeno-chan 
Mikoto: ....... 
Himeno: Fu-the ultimate weapon, a woman's thoughtful attentions, attack! 

Mikoto: Wow, a new Sci-fi movie poster!  Neat... 
Takayanagi: This?  If you'd like, I'll give it to you once its time is over 

Mikoto: I'm so happy, thank you! 
Takayanagi: Heh, Mikoto-chan, you like Sci-fi 
Takayanagi: (Then how about this one?} 
Mikoto: (Ah, that one is interesting too) 
Takayanagi: (It's by the same director, and it's pretty exciting) 
Himeno: D...Drat!  I've come here pursuing Takayanagi, and don't know anything about movies! 
[Left behind] 

pg 11 
Mikoto: Would you like to go see it after you've finished work today? 
Himeno: WHAT--!? 
Himeno: He beat me to it 

Takayanagi: Today? 
Takayanagi: Hmmm...I'm almost done at this job, but I have another part-time job this evening, sorry 
Himeno: Eh? 

Himeno: Takayanagi-san, you have other jobs? 
Takayanagi: Yes...I keep that one a secret from school, though 
Himeno: So it must be a ??? job?  I wouldn't have thought it 
Himeno: That's bad 
Himeno: Soo, Takayanagi-san seems like a straight-edge but he's really very casual 
Himeno: In that case 

Himeno: Hey, Takayanagi-san, I'd like to go see your other job too 

Himeno: How's that?  My Super Sexy Attack should-- 
Takayanagi: Nooo way!! 

pg 12 
Takayanagi: Grow up a little more before you come, ok? 

Himeno: Haaaa, to resist my temptation...you can tell Takayanagi-san is really mature-- 
Mikoto: How disgraceful--- 

Himeno: Wha-what was that!? 
Mikoto: You're so obvious with your bringing presents and trying to be sexy 
Mikoto: It's embarrassing to watch 

Himeno: WHA... 

pg 13 
Himeno: Are you looking for a fight!? 
Mikoto: Don't ask me, I'm going home 

Himeno: What's up with him?
Himeno: Why's he so grouchy all of a sudden?  He makes no sense 

Himeno: Forget him, that girl-boy 
(pui)

Mikoto: ......... 

pg 14 
Himeno: OK, that's perfect 
Himeno: Now I'll just head over to Takayanagi-san's work 
(ban)
Mikoto-kuuun, let us take some pictures 
(bata bata) 
(Kyaa)(Where did he go?) 

Himeno: You... 
Himeno: (Coming straight into the girls' bathroom...) 
Mikoto: Ah-Himeno 

Himeno: ....you-What are you wearing!? 
Mikoto: The girls in the drama club were having fun and made me wear it 
Mikoto: (And then it's 'Let us take pictures! Let us take pictures!' They're so noisy) 

pg 15 
Mikoto: (Oh no, if I don't go back to get my clothes I can't go home) 
Himeno: It...it suits you TOO well 
Himeno: And you're a boy, why do you have that sex appeal? 

Himeno: I don't care about all that, but how are you going to make this up to me?  I had just gotten it styled nicely 

(shu) 

Himeno: ...You seem strangely used to this, how suspicious 
Mikoto: That's right 

Himeno: (su) Ah...  (doki) 

Himeno: So, his hands, at least, are manly 
Himeno: Oh yeah...this is the first time I've ever let a boy touch my hair... 
Mikoto: Ok, it's done 
Himeno: Thanks 
[suddenly, nerves] 

Himeno, your hair is so nice and soft, 
Mikoto: Maybe I'll grow mine too 
Himeno: N-No, you can't!  Why would you want to become even more feminine? 

pg 16 
Mikoto: Because, even like this, probably no one sees me as a guy, there's nothing I can do to change that 
Mikoto: I didn't choose to be born with a girly face and a slim build 

Himeno: Oh?  Is it possible...you've been bothered by that...or something? 
Mikoto: (pui)  Not really 

Himeno: Strange...but when you think about it, it's only natural...after all, he is a boy
Himeno: A-la-la 

Himeno: ....You know, being masculine or feminine, it's not decided just by appearance, 
Himeno: There's nothing wrong with how you are now 

Mikoto: (hyoko)  Do you really think that? 

pg 17 
Himeno: Wagh! 
Himeno: Do...Don't cling to me like that!! 

Himeno: Remember!?  Whether you're a girl or a boy, right now we're rivals! 
Himeno: Don't forget it, ok!? 
Himeno: Aa, what is this guy? 
Mikoto: Ye---s 

Himeno: Really, is he a boy or a girl? 
Himeno: And he's suddenly cheerful again... 
Himeno: I can't figure out how to deal with him 

[Changed] 
Mikoto: (Let's go together, Himeno-chan) 
Himeno: (Don't cling to me!) 

Mikoto: Eeeh??  Takayanagi-san, you really don't have a girlfriend? 

pg 18 
Mikoto: (But I'm sure you're popular)(Maybe I'll nominate myself) 

Himeno: (I thought you didn't like being treated like a girl?) 
Himeno: Are you a boy or not? 

Himeno: Valentine's Day is coming up tomorrow! 
[No Holds-Barred Valentine's Tactics] 
Himeno: I have to win Takayanagi-san for my own self-respect... 
Mikoto: Hey, Himeno 

[Styling her hair again(seems he enjoyed it before)] 
Himeno: What? 
Mikoto: Isn't Takayanagi kind of suspicious? 
Himeno: What is? 

Mikoto: He doesn't seem like a bad guy but it seems like he's hiding something... 
Himeno: That's not true! 

Himeno: Takayanagi-san is the ideal man that I finally found!  There's no way he could have hidden aspects! 
Mikoto: Hooo--- 

pg 19 
Mikoto: Fufun, as if your judgement of guys would be right 
Mikoto: You haven't had a boyfriend for 17 years 
Himeno: Uh... 

Himeno: Be quiet, it's just that until now, a suitable guy hasn't appeared 
Mikoto: Oho? 

Himeno: There's only one man with the right to claim me! 

Himeno: That's why, waiting for that one person to appear, 
Himeno: I spared no effort to improve myself 
[Hard work unseen] 
Himeno: For that one person, I will become an especially good woman 
(ha) 

Himeno: O-oh no...is he going to make fun of me? 
Himeno: Probably...usually, if someone puts on airs and spouts all this romantic stuff-

Mikoto: Hmmm... 
Mikoto: You- 

Mikoto: You're really like a madonna, huh? 

pg 20 
Himeno: ...what?  Until now I thought he was teasing me 
Himeno: He look like a madonna himself with that gentle smile 
Himeno: What an unpredictable guy 

Mikoto: (Himeno-chan, you're so cute!) 
Himeno: (Cut it out) 

Himeno: But 
Himeno: Maybe he's an okay guy after all 
Himeno: (hmph) 

Himeno: And... 
Himeno: Finally the deciding Valentine's Day!! 

Mikoto: Then, Takayanagi-san, I'll take this, ok? 
(creak) 
Takayanagi: Sure, be careful... 

Mikoto: Uwa!~(gatan) 
Takayanagi: Watch ou- 

pg 21 
Himeno: I wonder if Mikoto is here already... 
Himeno: Hello... 

Mikoto: A- 
[Clerk][Customer] 

Himeno: ...................................(pishi) 
Mikoto: (pishi) Ah...no...Himeno......calm down 
(fura...) 
Takayanagi: ? 
Takayanagi: (What are these roses doing here?) 

(ban) 
Mikoto: Himeno! 
Takayanagi: (Ummm...) 

Mikoto: Wait a sec!  Don't make any wrong conclusions, just now it was-- 
Himeno: .......I wonder.... 

pg 22 
Himeno: I can't trust you, you incomprehensible boy-girl! 
Himeno: Aah, now 
Himeno: Anyways, when you accepted my challenge, maybe you were trying to get Takayanagi-san!? 
Mikoto: Wha... 
Himeno: I'm angry! 

Mikoto: ...................Ugly 
Himeno: Wha...What did you saaaay!! 

Mikoto: Aaah, such a dumb, violent girl with a horrible personality 
Mikoto: Has no reason to be loved by anybody 
Mikoto: Even without doing the challenge, Takayanagi-san would pick me 
Himeno: Y....You... 

Himeno: Whether that's true or not, let's see right now as promised!  We'll get Takayangi-san to finish things once and for all!! 
Himeno: This guy! 
Mikoto: Whenever you want 

Himeno: I was stupid to think he might be a nice guy even once---!! 
Takayanagi: Eh? 

pg 23 
Himeno: WELL?  Takayanagi-san!! 
Mikoto: Himeno! 
Himeno: Or Mikoto! 
Mikoto: Decide now which one you choose! 

Takayanagi: Wh...which one...I can't... 
Mikoto: Don't be deceived by appearances, even though Himeno looks like this, she's really a violent girl! 
Mikoto: (She's always teasing me) 
Himeno: You're the one who's deceiving in your appearance!! 

Mikoto: At least I'm more womanly than you Hmph (gyaa) 
Himeno: I told you to stop speaking like that! (gyaa) 
Mikoto: Fuuun-da!  Bad personality!  Violent idiot! 
Takayanagi: (Um, you two, calm down) 
Himeno: Y...you...you....... 

Himeno: You GIRL-BOY!  If you want to cast eyes towards boys, go to a gay bar! 
Mikoto: Okay!  If I lose this contest I'll do just that 

Takayanagi: Eh... 
Takayanagi: Re...really? 
Himeno: (Ha!  Drat!) 

pg 24 
Takayanagi: If that's the case, there's nothing more to say 
Himeno: Eh 
(gui) 

Takayanagi: Sorry, Himeno-chan 

Takayanagi: I'm not really interested in girls 
Takayanagi: (sorry) 
Himeno: Wha 
Mikoto: You've finally gone as low as you can go, haven't you Azuki... 

Himeno: Wha... 

Himeno: WHAT WAS THAT!!!??? 
(Dodo--n) 

pg 25 
Mikoto: Himeno, hey!  Get a grip! 
[Death by explosion] 

Rough Guy #1: Oy, oy, two girls for one guy on Valentine's is pretty greedy, isn't it? 

Rough Guy #1: At least give us one... 
Rough Guy #1: Wow 

Rough Guy #1: What, look, what a great woman!  Hey, miss, why don't you drop these losers and come play with us  That woman looks unconscious anyways 
(pikiin) 

Himeno: Where are you looking?  I'm definitely a better woman, right?! 
(biku) 

Rough Guy #2: That's the way it is, so brother, don't bother us, ok? 
Takayanagi: Eh... 
(baki)(za za) 
Himeno: Kyaa, Takayanagi-san! 

pg 26 
Rough Guy #3: (You're coming with me) 
Rough Guy #2: What, this guy was beaten way too easily 
Himeno: Hey, don't touch me so freely! 

(Do-kkaa) 

Mikoto: Don't screw with us, jerks!  If you don't want to get your balls kicked in, get lost!! 

Rough Guy #1: What...what's with this one, huh?  It...it's not a girl? 
(Kicked in?) 
(Hmph) 
Rough Guy #2: How crude... 

Himeno: ....... 
'Girl' #1: Excuse us, what are you doing? 
'Girl' #2: Kyaa, Kaoru-chan, what happened? 

pg 27 
'Girl' #2: Kaoru-chan, are you okay?  Hold on!! 
Himeno: (Kaoru-chan...?) 
Mikoto: Ah...the people that were with Takayanagi before...?) 

Takayanagi: To...to hit my face... 

Takayanagi: You are so mean!  To a gay man, his face is his life! 
'Girl' #1: That's right!  You're not getting away with doing this to our bar's #1 attraction, Kaoru-chan! 
(pikiin...) 

Mikoto: For real...people are never how they appear 
Himeno: Be quiet! 

pg 28 
Mikoto: So that's what Takayanagi's night job was 
Mikoto: They gave me a business card, saying I was a future prospect 
Himeno: Oh--really--how nice for you 
Himeno: ......... 
(gui) 

Himeno: I'm sorry 

Himeno: I misunderstood a lot about Takayanagi-san and said some horrible things, the entire thing was my fault 

Himeno: I'll have to polish up and improve my judgement of guys, In order to become a truly good woman 

Himeno: And then... 

pg 29 
Himeno: Next time 
Himeno: I'll get a REAL super good guy!! 

Mikoto: Ne...next time...? 
Himeno: Yes, do you think I'd back down from just one or two failures!? 

Mikoto: Himeno... 
Himeno: Just you watch...I'll become an even better woman... 
(oooOOO) 
Himeno: And catch an ultra-beautiful, ultra well-proportioned, ultra sexy dynamite hot guy!!! 
[She hasn't learned anything]

Mikoto: ............ 
Himeno: (First diet and exercise, then) 

Himeno: (I have to buy diet tea and cleansing juice) 
***Translator's note: I'm not exactly sure how to translate these two items, but the first is something like 'tea to reduce fat'
and the second is 'cleansing/purifying juice/soup'*** 

(gui) 
Himeno: O- 

Himeno: ..uch--! What was that... 

pg 30 

The Kiss... 

Mikoto: You promised to do anything if you lost, right? 

pg 31 
Mikoto: First of all, the right to claim you is 
Mikoto: Mine for all time 

Himeno: Wwh... 

Himeno: Wh 

Himeno: Wh 

Himeno: WHAAT---!!? 
(Dogattaaan) 

pg 32 
Himeno: For me, who should have been the invincible madonna, 
Himeno: As I thought, this guy is my nemesis! 

Himeno: I hate to admit it... 
Himeno: But I'm not sure if I'll ever get the best of him... 

'Girl' #1: (Kaoru-chan, are you working hard?) 
Takayanagi: (Mikoto-kun hasn't come to play lately...)

THE END
