You may now kiss.
Will...
Will this day...
come for real?
Wait!
Please don't take my brother from me!
Sachi.
Please don't take my brother from me!
Episode 9: The Real Enemy Is Sachi-chan!!
Sachi.
Sachi-chan.
Please give Onii back.
What's going on here?
Did Sachi-chan think Nagi-kun was actually getting married?
Sachi, come with me.
Myoujin Hall
I apologize for surprising you, but this is a fake wedding, okay?
It's a shoot for pamphlet photos.
I know.
Huh? Then why...
I don't know.
I just couldn't stand it.
That's no answer.
We all put in a lot of work for today.
And you came and made—
Why did you do a wedding if it was fake?
You weren't like this before, Onii.
You'd normally be like,
"A play wedding? What a waste of time. I'm busy studying."
You're the one who doesn't get what's going on.
Maybe so.
To be exact, I've just never had an opportunity to think about it.
Because I spent all my time studying.
What are you talking about?
I just came to realize at some point that I'm going to be an adult someday.
I spent all my time studying,
but I got engaged to Amano-san, with whom I was swapped at birth,
and I confessed to my rival, Segawa-san, and my first love, Ai-chan, came home.
And then, when we did the false wedding today,
I realized I'd be getting married someday.
I noticed myself thinking about that.
Or more like...
I wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't told me.
That's my sister.
You must have noticed by now.
That marrying your sister, Sachi-chan, could solve everything, too.
But I was swapped at birth, so we aren't related by blood.
That means there's a possibility I'll end up marrying you, huh?
Wha...
What are you talking about?! Gross!
Ow!
Happy now? I'm heading back.
Onii growing up?
Then how am I supposed to grow up?

Umino family Segawa family (False) Wedding Ceremony Meguro Myoujin
I'm sorry for causing a commotion earlier.
Sachi-chan, you're back!
Thank goodness.
I was worried about you.
I'm glad you're feeling better.
I mean, hey, she's probably stressed out because of exams.
It would have been a big deal if this was a real wedding, huh?
So anyway, I just came up with an idea for you.
How about we all hold a false wedding?
All of us?
How does that sound?
You wanted a wedding too, right, Sachi-chan?
You'll have more stock photos to work with if we have more subjects.
I see. That's a good idea.
Does that mean I'm doing a false wedding, too?
Yup, yup.
Isn't that putting a lot on me?!
Oh, come on, you look so happy.
I think I'm losing the lead role again.
All right, one at a time!
Jeez, Nagi-kun!
Hold me up properly!
What do you expect? You're so hea—
Happy wedding! Whoo!
Is this how it was supposed to be?
This is fine, too.
I prefer a Chinese wedding.
You exchange drinks, huh?
Are you supposed to wear your uniform in student weddings?
I kinda wanted to wear a dress.
This looks way more like a graduation ceremony.
Next up, let's try the kiss photo!
What?! K-Kiss?!
Just pretending, dummy.
You gotta have one for every wedding.
Umino-kun, are you shaking?
I know it's fake, but it's still making me nervous.
I kinda like this a lot.
What even is this situation?
Don't overdo it, Sachi.
I know.
Here we go.
Wait, Sachi-chan...
She actually just...
...kissed him.
Er, Sachi, was that...
You thought you were supposed to actually kiss?!
Myoujin Hall
You all told me we were taking pictures.
I thought everyone did.
Why would we do that?
And you're wiping too much.
I made it clear that we were just pretending!
What kind of siblings kiss, anyway?
I made a mistake! Get off my case!
Wait, Sachi!
What's wrong with her?
Was that really a mistake?
That's what she says, though.
We just have to believe her.
What's up with this vibe?
Thank you for participating today.
Please take some steamed buns home with you.
For real?!
Can I take your share home, too?
Are steamed buns that rare for you?
Hiro-san, may I have a moment of your time?
You want to negotiate a truce?
Yes.
I'm aware that you see me as an enemy.
I see you the same way.
You do?
I think I'm over that, though.
However...
As things stand, we're all background characters!
What do you mean by that?
I've always been wary of you.
And now it's become clear to me...
Sachi-chan is the real enemy!
Um...
Do you mean...
Sachi-chan is in love with Nagi-chan!
I've always sensed something off about their sibling relationship.
Nagi-chan, let's play.
Not today.
Why not, Sachi-chan?
They're siblings, yet they're nothing alike.
More than that...
They're like young lovers.
Why can't I play with Ai-chan?
No way.
You're playing with me today.
Thimp-thump...
For some reason, whenever I saw them, my heart would race.
Not that I was ever jealous of her being his sister, of course.
Have you never felt that something was odd?
I have.
You're so sure!
So many times.
I knew it.
And then there was what happened today!
We have to take action!
I guess I'm tired of being a background character, too.
Do you know what kind of romance is the biggest turn-on?
A romance with obstacles!
I see.
That makes sense.
I think I just got an idea for a song.
Wait, that's huge!
Let me be the first one to hear it!
I was worried it wasn't going to turn out well.
Damn it, Sachi... You had to do that in front of the others.
No!
I can't have my heart racing over my own sister!
Forbidden love!
Forbidden Love
No, no, no!
Sachi, you got the same problem wrong again.
But...
Sachi's my kid sister!
We've lived together under the same roof since she was born!
It's your fault. You suck at teaching.
Why, you little...
You really don't look like me.
You're the odd one out.
You were picked up from a river, weren't you?
Maybe my genes skipped a generation.
But you know...
No one would find out if we got married, since we don't look alike.
That's not the problem!
But now that we know we really aren't related,
if I become one of the Amanos, Sachi wouldn't be family anymore.
She'd just be a childhood friend.
Pure Love
Pure love!
Come on! Sachi is my sister!
Onii-chan...
Don't leave me.
I wanted a little more time with Onii-chan.
That means you can't get married, either!
Is this how Sachi felt the whole time she was around me?
Hey, Sachi-chan...
That thing today wasn't an accident, was it? You did it on purpose.
Yeah.
It was.
Just kidding.
Everyone was making such a huge fuss over Onii.
I just wanted everyone to stop.
But I guess you wouldn't kiss him, huh?
We're siblings. I'm so gross.
I don't know why I did that.
I don't get it, either.
Sachi-chan...
I don't think you're gross.
Why not?
Not telling.
I'm back!
It's already been two weeks since that news about me and Ai-chan, huh?
Today
Amano-san's Mom
It's been about two weeks. Why not go home?
May I?
Is it really okay for me to go back?
All right.
Time to study for school the day after tomorrow!
Welcome back, Nagi-kun.
Welcome back, Onii.
What's with that reaction?
Hold on, Nagi-kun. Did you think you'd be here alone?
Too bad.
Mom texted me and told me to go home.
Today
Amano-san's Mom
It's been about two weeks. Why not go home?
Uh-huh.
Anyway, Nagi-kun, let's celebrate.
The Ama-Umi house is back together!
I want your katsudon.
I dunno about that.
Why not?
Shut up! Don't talk to me!
What the hell am I doing?
I thought I could finally relax on my own.
I can't believe Sachi's back, too.
Wait, that's not the point.
So what if Sachi's home?
My beloved study materials!
It's been two long weeks!
So what?
That was a mistake!
An accident that happened because we're siblings!
Sachi's my sister, even if we aren't blood relatives.
My precious, only sister.
Okay.
I'm going shopping.
Does that mean you're making us katsudon?!
Yeah.
Yay! Party time!
Wait, Onii. I'm coming with you.
What? Why?
Wouldn't it be easier if I helped?
Just stay at home.
Again, what am I...
I just wanted to buy ice cream.
That's so weird.
Normally, he'd be all, "Why don't you help out for once?"
I guess he's mad at me.
Because of the stupid thing I did.
Nah, I mean, you know how he gets angry as soon as he's hungry?
That's you, Erika-onee.
It's been a while. Let's do this!
I'll help.
You don't have to.
Hey, Onii, I...
Just go away!
Okay.
I'm so pathetic.
This is the stuff!
I haven't had katsudon in forever! Nice!
Right, Sachi-chan? Nagi-kun?
I'm gonna go study.
You two can eat without me.
What's wrong with you?
Amano-san?
Enough already!
Nagi-kun.
Yes, ma'am!
Let me tell you something.
Sorry?
Sachi-chan's kiss was on purpose, you know.
Um... What do you mean, that was on purpose?
Erika-onee, what are you...
Okay, you two go ahead and discuss!
I guess we should eat.
Yeah.
It's juicier than usual.
Right?
I kinda splurged on the meat today.
I knew it.
You can't fool my palate.
Come to think of it, isn't Erika-onee hungry?
Looks like she made sure she got hers.
Oh, yeah. When did she do that?
Anyway, to the topic at hand...
When she said that was on purpose, did that mean you like me?
What was that for?
You're so creepy, Onii.
I don't know.
But I'm worried that at this rate, someone's going to take you.
I really don't want that to happen.
Yeah.
What about you?
What did you think when I kissed you?
Well...
I don't know.
What?
But I think it proves that you're my sister but you're not.
I've thought ever since we were little...
that you might not actually be my Onii.
You're nothing like me.
People used to point that out, remember?
I knew they were kidding, but...
But everything was different.
The way your hair was, the way your skin was,
the shape of your fingers and nails, the color of your eyes...
What's wrong, Sachi?
Are you lonely?
Mom and Dad are busy at work.
And your scent.
I was sure you weren't my brother.
I got so scared, I decided not to think about it anymore.
I'd forgotten about that until we found out that you were swapped at birth.
I was right. I felt vindicated.
Yeah? Same as me, then.
When I found out I wasn't part of this family, something finally clicked inside me.
I wasn't sad or shocked or anything.
I felt relieved.
I thought you were just dead inside.
Hey.
But you know how our parents are.
No wonder you're so much smarter than us!
I thought Nagi took after me!
Like hell he did!
Ow!
I guess that kept us from being negative about it.
Yeah.
I don't know where we go from here,
but at least we can be sure it isn't wrong for us to take that step.
Yeah.
Erika-onee's so insensitive, though.
Right?
I know she's your sister, but she said that right to your face.
Actually, Onii...
Good for you!
So you two made up!
We didn't so much make up as, well...
Thanks, Erika-onee.
We got to talk things out, and we worked through our issues.
Of course.
I thought you guys needed the opportunity.
Good, good.
So anyway, Erika-onee, let me tell you something.
Sure, sure. Speak, my sister.
That sounds familiar.
The two of us decided to get married.
What?!
What she said.
Um... huh?
We're about to kiss to make it official.
We want you to be a witness.
Wait, wait...
Hold it, hold it!
Stop it!
Jokes.
Just kidding.
You're both horrible!
You're so insensitive!
You mean you are?
That's what you get.
Wha?!
