Aharen-san wa Hakarenai (阿波連さんははかれない)

Than you for your hard work, Mr. Surveyor.

Good afternoon, ma'am.

I'm not a surveyor, though.

I'm a property inspector.

Th-That's... a boundary marker!

Hey, surveyor!

Greed

Property Trouble Event!

Who said you could drive this crap into my property?!

That's Tanaka-san from next door!

I thought the property you inherited was split into thirds, among your siblings.

Hold it.

Shove a stake in it, surveyor! This land's all mine!

I'm not a surveyor.

I'm a property inspector.

Quit your yappin'!

Land

That was an after-image.

You... just who are you?!

Like I said... just your average property inspector!

From above?!

Total station online! Commence inspection!

I see where your property line is now!

Permanent marker, set!

Boundary confirmed!

Bordered!

Registry... complete.

Mr. Surveyor!

Who in the world are you?

I'm just the kind of property inspector you'd find anywhere.

Grandma!

Grandma!

Hey, Grandma!

What is it, Madoka?

Look at this thing I found!

It was in storage! What is it?!

That...

Really takes me back. I didn't realize I still had it.

This is an exchange diary. When we were in high school,

your Grandpa Raido and I would exchange it.

Over a million copies in circulation he blockbuster hit now in theaters!

What's Grandpa Raido like?

Well, your grandpa...

Hakukaren Private High School

Faculty Office

Well, come on in.

Right.

Hello everyone.

My name is Raido, and I'm going to be a student teacher here.

Thanks for having me.

The ultimate esteem master, Raido-kun, has returned to the school...

It's nice to see you all again.

I-It's been a while.

Raido-kun, it's good to see you again.

You'll be observing a first-year class to start.

Make sure to pay close attention.

Right.

Shirorin!

Is everyone ready?

Then let's begin class.

I forgot my notebook...

You forget your stuff or something, Futaba?

Here. Let's look at mine, together.

Th-Thanks, Akkun...

Here comes a new esteem challenger!

Sensei?!

Are you all right?

I'm fine...

But that's so much blood.

It's not blood... it's just... esteem juice.

I see.

But...

Well, let the other teachers know. This will be a study hall period.

Sensei,

would you allow me teach the lesson for you?

Are you sure?

Yes. I made sure to prepare.

Give it a try, then.

Right!

My name is Raido, and I'm here as a student teacher.

I'll be teaching this lesson in Tobaru-sensei's place.

It's a pleasure.

You were a huge help.

No, I appreciate the opportunity.

You did a good job, too.

Thank you.

But only because I had your support.

You're quite welcome.

Tobaru-sensei!

You okay? I heard you collapsed from esteem!

You need to get clear! There's no telling when you'll hit her with more esteem!

It wasn't him, Henzan-sensei.

Senpai?

The esteem came from my students today.

Raido-san helped me.

He did?

Well, I did what I could.

Raido-kun... you've stopped blasting your esteem at random, haven't you?

You've really grown up!

I'm so proud!

There, there.

This is so strange. It's been five years...

But I feel like I'm back in high school.

I feel like Aharen-san could be right next to me.

And it feels that way more strongly than ever, today.

Like I could turn around and she'd be right there...

Good afternoon, Raido-kun.

This is...

I'm going to be teaching art at this school starting this year.

My name is Aharen Reina.

Raido-kun, you mentioned becoming a student teacher at our old school...

I thought I'd surprise you.

So, I didn't say anything. Sorry.

I wanted to hug you just like that, but since I'm working, I held myself back.

Gosh...

I took a year off before getting a job,

but I'm so happy to see you here.

Thank you for the surprise. It's really gonna help me stay motivated.

Since I can't do it now, after school, I'll make sure to hug you a lot.

C-Come on, Raido-kun! You can't say that kind of thing at school!

Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad!

Sorry. It just slipped out.

Bad, bad, bad!

And you hadn't seen him until then?!

Yeah.

Weren't you lonely, Grandma?

I guess I was lonely... but we made a promise.

What promise?

Hey, Raido-kun.

Aharen-san.

Can we take your picture?

Sure, that's fine.

Yes! Let's do it.

Me next!

But, I... am not worthy yet.

Could you wait for a bit?

Yeah, sure.

Aharen-san, I still have a lot to learn...

I need to improve as a person.

Aharen-san.

I wrote this letter. Would you please read it?

I tried to put my gratitude and the things I like about you into words.

O-Okay... thanks.

What do you think?

I'm really glad.

Good. Now, to keep at it.

I wonder what got into him...

Shirorin!

Tamanaha-san.

Mr. Boyfriend?

This is for you.

What is it?

Scary... is it an invoice for all the trouble I've caused?!

Thank you for always hanging out with Aharen-san.

I wanted to let you know I'm grateful, so I wrote that letter.

He doesn't actually hate me!

You... you okay?

Shirorin!

A straight shot...

of super esteem!

Shirorin!

Okay. Now I'm ready.

Raido-kun, what spurred you to suddenly write all those letters?

In terms of improving oneself, I think the inside matters as much as the exterior.

So I thought I should let people know I appreciate them,

and share my honest feelings.

That's what you meant about improving yourself...

You ready now?

Yeah. Let those shutters fly!

Nice pose!

This is great! Look this way!

I feel like I've grown a lot thanks to those letters!

Okay, so next, take some of us!

Oh. They weren't specifically after my pics.

Yeah, okay.

Let's take some of our own.

You wanted some pics too, huh, Aharen-san?

Okay.

Why is everyone wanting to take pictures all of a sudden, though...?

Oh, right.

Tomorrow's our graduation.
