*Fubuki is staring in surprise.

Narration: According to her, all high school boys are *disqualified*.
	Large bodies, low voices, incompetent, dirty, stinking of sweat ... 
	Would you really say all that, Fubuki Kobayashi?

*The principle is sitting there smiling.

Yamato: Ah.

Principal: That's your class chairman.  Kobayashi-san, I'll leave things to you.

Yamato: ...Kobayashi!?

Yamato: How nice.  I'm also Kobayashi.  Pleased to meet you.

Narration: --However, a miracle occurred.
~~~~~~~~

<school chimes>
Yamato: I'm Yamato Kobayashi.  I'm pleased to meet all of you.

Classmates: Wha what the?
	Did he mistake this for the elementary school next door?
	How old is that kid?
	He transferred here... so he's probably in the first year of high school.
	Are you serious!?
	He's cute.

Fubuki thinks: Exactly so.  Everyone be surprised!
	I was really surprised.

Narration: With Kobayashi-kun's appearance, the girl's heart was in a state of 
	paradise.

~~~~

Narration: As to why...  -play back-

Yamato: Kobayashi-san?

Fubuki: ... It's nothing ...
Fubuki thinks: This is bad.
	What's with him?
	He's cute.
	He's too cute!!
	This is trouble, at this rate I'm going to be a bad girl.

Yamato: Are you ok?  Don't you feel well?
Yamato: Don't worry, hang on to me!!

Fubuki thinks:  Even though he says that - how unreliable.
<poke,  totter totter, stifled scream>
Fubuki thinks:  He's built like an unbalanced little kid.
	In addition, what a loveable reaction!!
	As an extra he's a fool.

Yamato: Eh heh heh.  She hit my forehead.  It kind of hurts.

Narration:  Exactly.  She has an iron-clad secret liking for little boys.

Fubuki:  Aah, compared with those incompetent guys, he's like an angel.
Fubuki thinks: Here I've been thinking being the class chairman is just a pain. 
	It's got this nice perk attached...

Yamato: Ah.
~~~~~~~~

Yamato:  Fubuki-chan.
	Yoo hoo.

Fubuki: Ack.

Yamato:  Thanks for all the help earlier.  I hope I can continue to rely on you.

Fubuki: This... this is bad...

Classmates:  Fu... Fubuki-chan...?
	Does he mean the chairman?
	<laugh>......!!

Fubuki glares.

Classmates: Sorry, I didn't hear anything
	Oh no.
	Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
	I didn't laugh either.

Fubuki looks away.

Yamato: Huh?  I wonder if I upset her?

Narration: She hides her liking {to the bitter end/like the devil} <-[translator's 
	comment: it's a pun]

Teacher:  Uh, w well try to get along.  In addition....
~~~~

Teacher: I'll tell you now so there won't be any confusion.  There're 3 "Kobayashi" 
	in this class.
	You know... Fubuki Kobayashi, right?
	Kengo Kobayashi
	and Chihiro Kobayashi.

Chihiro: Yeah.

Yamato: Wow.  4 of us...

Teacher: It's a pain, but, everyone, try not to get confused.

Yamato:  Incredible!
	It's like we're siblings.
~~~~~~~~

Kengo:  ...... he said ......

*Silence

Fubuki: ......?.....

Chihiro: Hmm.

*Laughter

Classmates:  That's funny.
	How cute.
	He said siblings!?

Yamato: They laughed.
	Did I say something funny?

Narration: Thus Yamato
	managed to win the position of popular class mascot.
~~~~

Classmate: Don't get me wrong Kobayashi-kun, you should stay away from those 3 
	"Kobayashi" ok?
*Everyone agrees.

Yamato: Why?

Classmate: It's that... they're all really ... strange people on the fringe.

Yamato: I'll go get them.

Classmate: Hey hey hey hey, aren't you listening to us?

*They grab him.

Yamato: You're being cruel to say things like that.  If I don't try spending time 
	with them I won't know, right!?
	I hate leaving people out.

Classmates: Please stop.
	......Ok, we'll tell you.
~~~~~~~~

Classmates: Fubuki Kobayashi, Kengo Kobayashi and Chihiro Kobayashi are otherwise 
	known as the "A-gumi(class) Bermuda Triangle".
	They aren't relatives.
	There's a lot of people who have wandered between those three and lost 
	themselves.
	Our homeroom teacher Aoki - he was 80 kilograms when school started.
	While he wandered between those three...
	In only a few months A-gumi is like something out of SciFi...
	If you get involved with them, they'll swallow you whole.
	They each like being by themselves, so just leave them alone.
*Everyone agrees.

Yamato: I wonder if that's so...
	There's no one who likes being alone.
~~~~

Yamato: Fubuki-chan was really nice, and she's the class chairman.  Certainly......

Fubuki: Attention!!
Fubuki: Just like the last time, your quiz from this morning has returned!
	Those whose score is less than 70 not only have to make corrections, but 
	will have to turn it back in after school.  Needless to say, no helping 
	each other!
	If I call your name, come get it right away.  Anyone who's late gets their 
	score read out loud.  Don't make me waste time twice.
	Nakagawa, 51.  Hirosaki, 64.

Classmates: It's too fast.
	How cruel.

Fubuki: Yoshida, 30.

Classmates: That's mine.
	Don't look.

Fubuki:  Enatsu, your handwriting's as messy as ever, 59.
	What a pain.
	What's with this score Kobayashi...
~~~~~~~~

*Yamato's trembling.

Fubuki: Ya... Yamato-kun... er, that is...
Fubuki thinks: I... forgot...
	.... 11 .... or so?

*Yamato's sniveling.

Classmates: It's nothing to worry about Kobayashi-kun.
	Since you just transferred in.
	I only got a 16.

Yamato: Ugh.

Classmates: It's ok, it's ok.  We all secretly pass the answers around later.
	Let's do it together, ok.

Yamato: .........No, I'm ok.
	It's my own fault, I'll do my best.

*Everyone claps.

Fubuki thinks: Sigh.
	I'm an idiot.
	I scared Kobayashi-kun.

Classmates:  That's great Kobayashi-kun.

Fubuki thinks:  But Kobayashi-kun is also cute when he's being virtuous...
	<sigh> If you asked me a little about the problems, I'd give you detailed 
	personal instruction.  I'd teach you *all sorts* of things.

Label: looks unreliable from the back
	round cheeks
	round back-of-the-head
	slender neck
	sloped shoulders

Yamato: <snivel>  I don't understand.

Narration: And he's stupid.
~~~~

Yamato: Huh?
	That's...
	Kobayashi-kun from my class.
	He's surrounded by all those friends

'Friends':  Come over here, would ya.
	You're impudent.

Narration: "Friends"

Yamato:  He's not alone at all.

Narration: Could be.

Yamato: Hurray, I'll go join in too.
	Kobayashi-kun.

Kengo:  I'm not hiding or running away.
~~~~~~~~

'Friend':  Get him guys...!!
<crashing noises, a scream>

Kengo:  What!?  You too.

Yamato: Heeeeeeeeeeee.  It's nothing.
Yamato cries and runs away.

Kengo:  Kobayashi......? ......?
~~~~

Yamato's crying.
Yamato thinks:  Tha... That was scary.
	Maybe I should stay away like everyone said...
	...No that's not right.  We're all "Kobayashi" so we can all get along.  
	Definitely.
*He's shaking his head.

Narration: Today's just a bad day. (laugh)

Chihiro: Kobayashi-kun.
	You're the transfer student Kobayashi-kun right?  Why are you over here?

Yamato: The other
	Kobayashi-kun.

Chihiro: Hey there.
	Have you looked around the school yet?  If you'd like, I can show you around.
~~~~~~~~

Yamato thinks: Wow...
Yamato: ...Ok.

Chihiro: Let's go.

Yamato: Kobayashi-kun, you're so kind.  Just like an older brother.

Chihiro: You mean like that [comment] this morning.
Chihiro: Ya ha ha ha ha ha
Chihiro: It's extremely careless of you to want to be my brother.

Yamato: H Huh?

Chihiro: You're really an interesting-funny guy aren't you.  ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Chihiro: By the way are you planning on joing a club?
Chihiro is walking fast dragging Yamato along behind him.

Yamato: Uh, er, no.

Chihiro:  Really.  That's convenient.

Yamato: You walk fast.
Yamato is starting to pant.

Chihiro:  I'm in an investigation club.
*Chihiro is ignoring Yamato's comment.
Chihiro: Would you like to help out?

Yamato: ?  Sure.

Chihiro:  How nice.
	Here we go.

Yamato: Right!
	What!?

*Chihiro spins him around.

Yamato:  Kobayashi-kun.
~~~~

Chihiro: This is an experiment to test an animal's homing instinct.  You've got 5 
	minutes till the next class.
	Good luck.

Yamato: ......

Students: And then...

Yamato: Waaaaaa  Kobayashi-kun where am I?

*Chihiro's giggling.
<school chimes>

Fubuki: You went with Chihiro!?
~~~~~~~~

Fubuki: If I'd thought about you not coming back...
	That guy is the most difficult to deal with in our class!  If he invites 
	you again, don't go along with him.
*Class has started.

Yamato: O... Ok.

Fubuki thinks:  Oh no!!  I'm going on like I usually do.
	Stupid.

Yamato:  ...Fubuki-chan, I'm sorry I've made you late for 5th period.
	uh  um

Fubuki:  That's not really...

Yamato:  But
	you were worried and went out of your way to look for me, right?  Heh heh  
	I'm glad.
	Thank you.
~~~~

Fubuki: Cu Cute.
	My sensibility is melting.
Fubuki: If... If you have any problems, you can come to me at any time, ok?
Fubuki's secret intentions: I'll do *anything* for you.

Yamato: Ok,
	Thanks.
Yamato: Hurray, Fubuki really is a nice person.
	I'm sure everyone is just misunderstanding her.
	The 2 Kobayashi-kun were a bit scary, but Fubuki-chan's ok.  I'm sure I 
	can get along with her.

Narration: Look out Kobayashi-kun!  Right now she's the most dangerous to you. (amusement)
~~~~~~~~

Yamato: And the other 2 Kobayashi-kun...  It's ok if I just get to know them 
	individually a little at a time.
	Right, slowly...

*Chemistry Room

Narration: "Beware of the 'Bermuda'"
	already...

Yamato: I'm scared.

Narration: 4 people assigned to clean-up duty by their names.

Chihiro: Hi, that was a terrible misfortune that befell you earlier.

Narration: You're a misfortune.

Yamato: Er.
Yamato: He's materialized!!

Chihiro: Look at this, isn't it a pretty color.
~~~~

Yamato: How pretty...

Chihiro:  Yeah, this one too.
	Neither of them are very important chemicals, but it's dangerous to mix them.

Fubuki: What's he doing?  That jerk.

Chihiro: ... They're so pretty.  It gives you a kind of strange feeling.

Yamato: ...yeah.

Chihiro: Would you lend me a hand?

Yamato: Like this?

Chihiro: No,
	put your knuckles up.  Right.  Like that.
Chihiro: It's a trap.

Narration: He can't move.

Chihiro: These days, falling for this kind of underhanded....

*Yamato is panicking.

Chihiro:  I'll tell you again.  It's dangerous to mix them.
~~~~~~~~

Yamato: Gah.  Take them off.  Take them off.

Fubuki: Chihiro Kobayashi, you jerk!!

Chihiro: wa ha ha ha ha ha

Kengo: Shut up.
Kengo: C cut it out!!
	He's obviously lying.

Yamato: Heeee...

Chihiro:  Oh yeah.  Furthermore, at the moment there are 3 more traps around you...

Fubuki:  Kobayashi.

Narration:  A trap around here.
	A trap?
	Might be a trap

Fubuki:  Hold it, Chihiro Koba...
	?

Yamato: Wah Fubuki-chan.
~~~~

Fubuki: wha wha wha wha......
	woo hoo
	oh no
Fubuki: It's alright, ok.

Narration:  Gender role reversal.

Yamato: No.

Fubuki: Ho hold it, hold it.
	He said 'no'.  That's so...
Fubuki: Oh no, All by itself my face is...
Fubuki: ...... er ......

Kengo: This girl.

Fubuki: Drat it.
	They know.  They know.  They know.
Fubuki: You......
~~~~~~~~

Fubuki: You don't need me to handle this kind of thing for you!!  Aren't you a boy!?

Yamato: ...... oh ...
	Yeah ... that's right.
	Sorry.
	heh heh
*Yamato is scratching his head.

Yamato:  I'm heading back.
	Sorry.

Fubuki: .......ah!
	Kobayashi-kun...

Kengo:  ... It's about time for...

Chihiro:  See ya.

Fubuki: ...... Hold it!
~~~~

Fubuki: ......... I'm not letting you go like that...!

Kengo: Figures.

Chihiro: Oh, my.
Chihiro: The always calm honor student, class chairman likes young boys. 
	<giggle>
	No wonder there aren't really any rumors floating around.

Fubuki: You should talk.
	Be quiet!!
~~~~~~~~

Fubuki:  At any rate, there will be no mention of this incident to anyone.
	You understand.  If this gets out, you're not getting off easy.
Fubuki:  That Kobayashi as well.

Kengo: ...... I don't really ......   I'm not interested in that sort of thing...

Chihiro: I'm fine with keeping silent.  Sounds interesting
	...  Anyway, you, don't forget.

Fubuki: Wha What!?

Chihiro:  You *owe* me one for this.
	ha ha ha

Fubuki: Ugh.

Narration: Fubuki is indebted to a jerk.
	minus 10 points
	damage 8
~~~~

Yamato: After you've argued with a friend, the way to reconciliation:
	Traditional consensus indicates the best start is humbly apologizing.
Yamato: Good morning Fubuki-chan.
	Sorry about yesterday.

Fubuki: ...uh, morning.

Yamato: It's ok, it's ok.  Don't worry, don't worry.
	eh heh heh
	We'll have made up by the time school's over.
	Ok, I'll try hard.

Fubuki: You can have this.
~~~~~~~~

Fubuki: It looked like you ate bread yesterday.  Anyway, since I was already 
	making some for my younger siblings...
	[Translator comment: bread meaning a pre-packaged roll]
Fubuki: ...... Kobayashi-kun...?

*Yamato starts crying.

Fubuki: Huh!?
	Why!!

Yamato: Fu...
*Yamato is crying.
~~~~

Yamato: ...eh heh heh
	eh heh heh heh heh  I'm glad.  Can I go ahead and eat?

Fubuki: Huh!  Now!?
Fubuki: But school hasn't even started yet.

Yamato: Hurray.
	Yeah, I'm happy.
Yamato: Wow, did you make all of this Fubuki-chan?

Fubuki: Huh?  yeah...
	Well...
Fubuki: Kobayashi-kun, the teacher's going to come!

Yamato: I'm fine, I'm fine.  I'm just having a little bit.
Yamato: eh heh heh heh  heh heh  This is good.
~~~~~~~~

Fubuki: ...... Really?

Yamato: Yeah.

Fubuki: Isn't that nice.

Yamato: Yeah.

Classmates:  The chairman was really cute this morning.
	She was blushing.
	My impression of her changed.
	Yeah, exactly, I was surprised.
	...hey, here's what I think...
	Oh you mean...
	Precisely!?
	"The chairman likes Kobayashi-kun!!"
	Definitely!!
	It's so obvious.
	Rather unexpected.
	Aren't things like that though.
	That type, you know...
~~~~

Yamato: Hey, question for you Fubuki-chan.

Fubuki: What is it Kobayashi-kun?
	Go ahead and ask.

Yamato: Do you like *Kobayashi-kun*?

Fubuki: Hmm?
	Wha what are you asking that for?

Yamato: Huh?

Fubuki: Uh, um, that's...
	Why, why?
	Not really, I...
	<Her speech degenerates> ga ga gi gi go ge ge

Yamato: ...Aha!
	I see.  So that's it.
~~~~~~~~

Yamato: Fubuki-chan!!
	You have my full support!!

Fubuki: uh

Yamato: Alright!!
	We'll do our best.

Fubuki: Wait!!
	Just which "Kobayashi" do you think it is Kobayashi-kun!?

*Yamato's running along.
Yamato: Huh?
	I wonder which Kobayashi-kun?
	Oh well,  we'll just try our best.

Narration: Go go Kobayashi-kun. 'te ke te ke' run until chapter 2!  
	Kobayashi-kun!! (laugh)
