Narration: To all of you who've been enjoying "The Extra Kobayashi-kun",
Narration: It's sudden, but in the 16th episode of the series,

Student: --Hey!  Did you see this!?

Sign: Miss&Mister Himawari [Translator's note: Himawari = sunflower]
	Contest!!
	Select representatives from each class and choose by popular vote!!
	The chosen miss and mister will be used as models for next year's new student pamphlet.

Students: .........Our school sure is peaceful isn't it--
	It's true.  It's true.

Narration: I dub
Narration: this place Himawari High School.  (laugh)

Morio: Sorry.
	I'd forgotten

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki: You gym shorts thief!!
	What's with that.
Fubuki: Today being today, I'm not letting you get away!!
	Mocking us 'cause you think it's a poppin' comedy.

Thief: <scream>
	I'm sorry.

Girls: <excited scream>
	Fubuki-chan, you're cool--

Thief: Hiii--

Fubuki thinks: ...Don't [just] watch, lend a hand.

Narration: [Even] if she's cut her hair or changed her image,

~~~~
Narration: Fubuki Kobayashi's in good health today as well.

<school chimes>

Classmate: Chairman!
Classmates: You've received recognition from the principle!?
	Congratulations.

Fubuki: <walk, walk, walk>
	Right.
Fubuki thinks: Um.  I'll take care of this matter first and...

Classmate: The teacher was calling!

Fubuki: I know!
Fubuki thinks: Before that, the proposal to stop using girls' gym shorts...

Classmate: Chairman!  Tell us what you think will be on the next test--

Fubuki: Shut up.
Fubuki thinks: ...huh?  This "Miss Himawari Contest"...?

Yamato: <excited scream>
	Fubuki-chan, did you really catch the thief!?

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki: Kobayashi-kun.
	<blush>

Yamato: Impressive--

Fubuki: Not...
	not at all, you Kobayashi-kun--
	My goodness!

Narration: ...of course her liking for little boys is also in full health.

Chihiro: Hey!  Gym shorts killer!

Narration: (laugh)

Chihiro: <cackle>

Fubuki: <glare>!

Yamato: Oh.

Chihiro: But-- Fubuki-chan, aren't you the one who's suggesting to the school that they stop using girls' gym shorts?

Narration: <-She hit him.

Chihiro: Schools using girls' gym shorts are abandoning them one after another.  It's such a stingy world--
	Whoops.  I'm not a big fan of girls' gym shorts so don't worry.
Chihiro: It's quite sad.  What do you think?  Kengo-kun.

Kengo: ............
	You're weird.

Fubuki: Hey.
	Over there!  Stop with the private conversation!!

~~~~
Fubuki: Now,
	I think all of you already know, but for some reason it looks like the whole school is going to have a "Miss&Mister Himawari Contest"!

Classmates: I've been waiting--
	Yea.
	<whistle>
	Alright!

Fubuki: Ok.  Be quiet!
Fubuki: Therefore first, everyone needs to cast one vote for the class representative.  The boys will choose the "Miss" and the girls will choose the "Mister" so
	Everyone please cooperate!  That's all!

Classmates: Ok.
Classmates: So who should we use--
	<talking>
	It's gotten interesting.

Fubuki: .................. Why are they getting that excited?
Fubuki: Then, you take care of the boys Vice Chairman.

Hikage: Ok, it'll be fun.

Fubuki thinks: Hmm...?  So everyone likes this sort of thing.
	I don't really understand it.

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki thinks: Whatever.  It obviously has nothing to do with me--...
Fubuki: Everyone decide arbitrarily.  I'm not interested.

Girls: Huh--!?
	Is that ok!?  Chairman.

Fubuki: A "Miss Contest" is like a Cam Girl(*), right.
(*: Campaign Girl.)
Fubuki: It's the same as "The Himawari Girl" or "The Himawari Boy"!

Narration: (laugh)

Fubuki: Hmph!
	What nonsense!

Girls: ....
	.......Stop with "The Himawari Boy" Chairman.
Girls: Then, then, who do you think would be good for the "Mister"!?
	<excited screams>
	Hmm.  1-A's most popular boy would be...
	Yeah--

Fubuki: <interest>

Girls: That'd be...
	Yamato/Chihiro/Kengo Kobayashi-kun.
	Right.
	<excited screams>

~~~~
Girls: Huh--!?
	What's with that.
Girls: What're you saying.  If you choose by looks there's no one but Chihiro-kun.
	Right.  Right.
	So his personality isn't touched by the standards for judgment!?
	That's true, but the most popular amongst the girls right now is...

Sign: Fubuki's hand.

Fubuki: Wait.  Wait!!
Fubuki: What's with all of you!  If you're talking about "The Himawari Boy" it has to be Yamato-kun, right!?
	<point>

Label: The Himawari Boy.

Narration: (laugh)

Girls: Certainly......
	Hmph.
	If it's "The Himawari Boy"...
Girl: It has nothing to do with the rest of the boys so a good...

Narration: <-Cruel.

Girls: You can lump the whole group together.
	...then it's gotta be one of the "Kobayashi"-
	It would be, right...?

~~~~~~~~
Girls: The popular one would be Yamato-kun.
	Without argument, the handsome one is Chihiro-kun.
	The one most liked by girls is Kengo-kun.......
Girls: .............................................................
Girls: What do we do.
	I can't decide.

Fubuki: --well, do your best.
	Yeah, I'll leave it to them.

Girls: <sigh> The boys have it easy.

Fubuki: ?  They do?

Girls: Yeah.  Speaking of the most popular among the boys, 8-9 out of 10...

~~~~
Girls: would pick Yuri-chan as "Miss Himawari"--
Girls: See.  See.  How surprising.

Yamato: Huh?  Really?
	Then, what about Fubuki-chan?
Yamato: ?

Boys: <laugh>
	You Kobayashi-kun.

Yamato: <blush>
	Uh!!  What!?
	Why!?

Boys: Well, the chairman's certainly pretty.
	<snicker>
	She's been good since she cut her hair.
	<giggle, giggle, giggle>
	And she's smart... well, too good or too accomplished or... but--...
Boys: She's scary!!
	 Definitely.

Yamato: <trip>

~~~~~~~~
Yamato: Wai-
	That's cruel you guys.

Boys: <laugh>

Hikage: Come on you two.  Don't look like that--
	Ok!?
	Just put in a vote for one you think is cute.

Yamato: That's right, right!?  That's right, right!?
	They're strange.

Hikage: Kobayashi-kun?

Yamato: Chihiro-kun and Kengo-kun understand, right!?  Fubuki-chan's cute, right!
	Right!?

Kengo and Chihiro: ............

Yamato: What should I do.
	Yeah.  Yeah.
	Then again they're all cute, but-
	Umm.

~~~~
Students: Hooray!

Fubuki thinks: The whole school's on the edge of their seats............ it seems.
Fubuki thinks: Who cares about the Miss Contest.
	Hmph.

Pencil: <click, click>

Fubuki thinks: This sort of thing's......

Paper: Kobayashi

Fubuki: .....
Fubuki thinks: ...Darn.  It's because they were all saying strange things.
	I can't continue.

Chihiro: Did you put me in?  Fubuki-chan.

Fubuki: <shudder>

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki: <grr>
	You scum!!

Chihiro: Whoopsie.  I'm not voting for a violent girl.
	Ow.  Ow.  Ow.  Ow.

Fubuki: Who wants it!!  That sort of thing.
Fubuki thinks: Good Grief.  If it comes to this guy......

Kengo: <sigh>
Kengo: <scratch, scratch>

Fubuki thinks: Oh, Kengo-kun's also troubled.  He's also troubled.
Fubuki: <giggle>
Fubuki thinks: He looks like it's a bother...

Kengo: ?

Fubuki thinks: <blush>
	......er, uh.
Fubuki thinks: That's right.  The boys are choosing "THE HIMAWARI GIRL".

~~~~
Fubuki thinks: I wonder who he(Kengo)'s going to enter...?

Yamato: Fubuki-chan.

Fubuki: Oh.
	Kobayashi-kun.
Fubuki: Hm?  Haven't the boys decided yet either?  On "Miss Himawari".
	I'd heard they'd decide quickly.

Yamato: Um--  I'm still [debating] as well.  What should I do.
	<excited scream>

Fubuki: Whatever you choose it'll be Yuri-chan, right.  It'll be fine if you arbitrarily pick someone.
	You're rather serious.

Yamato: Why?
	It might be you Fubuki-chan.

Fubuki: <cough, cough, cough, cough>

Yamato: Fubuki-chan are you ok!?

Fubuki: <chuckle>

Yamato: Huh.

Fubuki: Th-that worry is nonexistant.  Goodness.  Don't make me laugh Kobayashi-kun.
	<laugh>

~~~~~~~~
Yamato: ...Fubuki-chan, you don't know that you are cute!

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

Yamato: ...Oh!

Fubuki thinks: What?

Yamato: Oh, I see.  That's why.
	<laugh>
Yamato: <smile>
	Oh, I've decided.
Yamato: I'll enter you Fubuki-chan.

Fubuki: Wai...
Fubuki thinks: ? ?

Yamato: Yea.

~~~~
Fubuki: --???
	<heart beats>
Fubuki thinks: Kobayashi-kun's...
Fubuki thinks: What is he saying!?
	What kind of spell was cast on me just now!?
	"I'm cute--..." .........Huh!?
Fubuki thinks: After I talk to Kobayashi-kun, my heart always lightens and feels better.
	--What is this?  The strange heart-pounding Kobayashi-kun power.

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki thinks: ......as expected, he's the only one who should be "The Himawari Boy".

Narration: (laugh)

Paper: Yamato Kobayashi

Pen: <writing>

Fubuki thinks: ...I'm sorry I was confused for even a moment.

Narration: Apologies.

Hikage: The boys total?  It's finally finished.  Haven't the girls [finished] yet?

Fubuki: Not at all.  No!
Fubuki: Those girls are seriously debating.

Hikage: <laugh> I can guess the members.

Fubuki: By the way, you're not on the list.

Hikage: ...I know.

Fubuki: So who's 1-A's "Miss"?  Yuri-chan, right?

Hikage: Yep, she's best.
	Since she's popular--  She's always smiling, isn't two-faced and doesn't backbite.  She's nice to everyone.

~~~~
Fubuki: .........hm--......

Hikage: ......Oh!  Speaking of which, you were in there too Chairman.

Fubuki: Yeah, I know.  One vote from "The Himawari Boy".
	<embarrassed giggle>

Hikage: ? No.
Hikage: I'm sure there were two votes.

Fubuki: Uh.

Hikage: Oh-- and also one blank vote.
	After I'd pleaded with them all--

Fubuki thinks: What!?
Fubuki: You're kidding!?  Who!!
	<grab>

Hikage: Uh...... I don't know of course.
	It wasn't me.

Fubuki thinks: Who'd...
	<heart beat>

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki thinks: Stu... stupid!  It's not him(Kengo)...
Fubuki thinks: He's gotta be the one with the blank sheet.
Fubuki thinks: <heart beats>
	Probably.

Narration: (laugh)

Fubuki thinks: ......there's also strange guys.
	I'm not proud of it, but since kindergarten
	I've not been told I'm cute or anything.

Chihiro: Da dee da.
Chihiro: See.

Yamato: <scream>

Fubuki thinks: It wouldn't be this guy, right?
Fubuki thinks: 2 votes for me.
	Kobayashi-kun and...
Fubuki thinks: The other was who?

Girl: Well,

~~~~
Girl: What do we do!

Narration: They're still debating.  (laugh)

Girl: For a "Mister Himawari" for us in 1-A!
Girl: Anyone's fine at this point.
	I'm tired.
	We can't have that.
	<grr>
	We took a vote and there's obviously 3 times the number [of ballots]?
	<sigh>
	Whoever's decided, it'll be a "Kobayashi".
Girl: Well, wait!  Then how would we define the ideal "Mister"?
Girls: ...right.  Decisive and carries through!
	<excited screams>
	And has good grades.
	Of course is great at sports.
	And he's gotta be tolerant, someone to rely on when you need.
Girls: --And also good looking!
	Does that kind of guy exist.

<Door opens>

Fubuki: --er, sorry to interrupt!  Have you seen Hikage!?

~~~~~~~~
Girls: <stare>
	!
	N-nuh-uh......

Fubuki: --ok, Thanks!
	Oh, also, take it easy!  The "Mister's" not that important.
Fubuki: <runs off>...

Girls: <stunned>
	...um, somehow...
	......yeah.
Girl: THAT'S just like the chairman.
	Why is she a girl?

Kengo: .........

Fubuki: <run, run, run>...

~~~~
Fubuki: --Ack!
	<bump>

Kengo: !

Fubuki: Sor...

Kengo: .........

Fubuki thinks: Kengo Kobayashi!
	<heart beat>
Fubuki: Uh... Oh!  Hey!
	Have you seen Hikage!?

Kengo: I saw him at the old building...

Fubuki: Ok!  Thank you.

Kengo: Oh.
Kengo: <grab>

Fubuki: Ow!?
Fubuki: .........

Kengo: ......oh.
	......sorry.

~~~~~~~~
Kengo: It would be good for you not to face that way.
	I'm not saying anything bad.

Fubuki: ...why?
	The new building's that way.

Kengo: Because.

Fubuki: ......!
	<grab>
Fubuki: Is it
Fubuki: THAT?
	Hiii--

Kengo thinks: She's got good instincts.

Fubuki: Fr-from your looks, it's big!?

Kengo: ...no, not really.

Fubuki: Liar!  About 12 centimeters!?  Colored black and yellow!?

Kengo thinks: How does she know that much?
Kengo: At-at any rate, this way...

Fubuki: My-
	my feet won't move.

Kengo: ..........you're kidding?  Take your hands off...

Fubuki: Hiiiiii

Kengo: ...........................

~~~~
Fubuki: Talk about something fun.
	<sweat dripping>

Kengo: .................................................?

Narration: <-That's very difficult.  (laugh)

Fubuki: Sa-
	say, you put in a blank vote for the Miss Contest didn't you.
Fubuki: Hikage was grumbling--
	Saying he'd begged-

Kengo: --no?
	I put in [a vote].  That wasn't me.

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki remembers: "There were 2 votes entered."
Fubuki thinks: One vote was "The Himawari Boy".  The other vote--...

Kengo: ...?  You have a fever......?

Fubuki: !!
	<shove>

Kengo: --ow!
Kengo: What's with you.

Fubuki: Shut up.  Don't look.
Fubuki remembers: "Fubuki-chan,"
	"you don't know you are cute."

~~~~
Classmates: Ack-- Today we're weeding!?
	I'd heard it was the pool!
	It's a scam.
Classmates: <sigh>  The pool is calling me...
	I want to swim--
	You'd catch cold.

Fubuki: Hey.  Get busy!
Fubuki: Chihiro Kobayashi!  Stop sluffing.

Chihiro: See.  See.  You've started wanting to swim.

Yamato: My feet won't reach.

Narration: <-Can't swim.

Fubuki: Someone, over there...

Yuri: Here.  This right?
	Ok.

Fubuki thinks: <heart beat>
	Oh.  Yuri-chan.
Fubuki thinks: ...... For some reason I don't want to stand next to her.
Fubuki: Let's go.

~~~~~~~~
Classmates: Yuri-chan, water's not coming out.

Yuri: Oh!  I understand.  Wait a sec--
Yuri: Here.
Yuri: <slip>
Yuri: <splash>

Classmate: Chairman!  Yuri-chan's......!

~~~~
Fubuki: Drat.

Classmate: She can't swim.  Somebody....

Fubuki: Hiii--
	<cough, cough>

Kengo: Don't get carried away.  Idiot.

Yamato: --Yuri-chan!  Is Yuri-chan ok!?

Kengo: --hey!
	<tap>!
	Hey!
	<tap>!

Classmates: <mutter>

Yamato: Is she ok!?  Kengo-kun.

Kengo: She's drunk a lot of water. --call an ambulance!

Classmates: Uh, right!!
	Hurry.

~~~~~~~~
Fubuki thinks: --um......
	<heart beats>

Classmates: Yuri-chan.  Yuri-chan!
	What do we do.  <Where's> the teacher.

Fubuki thinks: Wait.  Certainly, before-

Yuri: <cough>
