Kisaragi Koi’s Speech – “Kakeru-san When We First Met”

 

“Hyakunen Aoharu. Kisaragi Koi’s Speech: Kakeru-san When We First Met.

 

SCHOOL REVOLUTION! Tsukino Academy Tale! Hyakunen! Aoharu!

Are you enjoying it~!?

Wearing a uniform, which I last wore ages ago, I’m in the middle of having my fill of a satisfying school life!

The last time I wore a blazer was in high school!

With Kakeru beside me, also wearing his blazer, I can’t help but remember my high school days.

So with that being said, my short story will be about Kakeru-san, from the time we first met.

 

When it comes to Kakeru and me, we’ve gone way beyond the concept of best friends at this point. We consider each other our truest of partners.

We’re both pretty chatty and lively, so we can get conversations flowing every single day. Sometimes~ we have a few arguments~.

We do dumb stuff together, do serious stuff together, and he’s become the person whose face I see the most out of the whole year.

He’s basically the air to me, in a good way!

He’s with me as if it’s a given, and I wouldn’t be the same without him. I think we’d be able to understand each other even without having to speak!

The day we learn how to use telepathy with one another isn’t far away! Mmhmm.

 

Because of that, I’m also reminiscing in a way that makes us seem as if we’ve been with each other for the longest time now. But actually, Kakeru and my relationship is the shortest in Gravi. We only got to know each other when we enrolled in high school.

We happened to get along at the entrance ceremony, and since we were in the same class, ended up hanging out together. Then we were scouted.

The speed of our encounter-to-dorm life... actually, more like partner life, was as fast as lightning!

Kakeru was also wearing a blazer back then. He said that he’d purposely chosen a high school with no one he knew.

 

On the day of the entrance ceremony, I incidentally met eyes with Shiwasu Kakeru-kun.

His blazer was brand-new and loose-fitting, and he was standing there, giving off some total “new student” vibes~

His sparkling gold hair was smooth and silky, and his eyes were huge!

I think it might’ve been because he didn’t know anyone in the school, but in the little interval before we headed into the entrance ceremony’s venue, he was spacing out, staring off into the distance all alone.

When he kept quiet looking like that, I thought he was a rich kid from some well-off family! In reality, though, he actually is a high-class boy from some SUUUUuuUUUuuPER rich family.

Anyway, putting that aside for now.

 

At the time, I didn’t expect him to be someone filled with such vitality and unyielding “never give up!” spirit.

If anything, I thought that he looked physically weak, or that he seemed fragile. My first impression of him was a complete 180 from who he truly was.

I inadvertently called out to him. Like, “Hey there! What junior high did you come from~?”

I supposed maybe he'd be concerned that he couldn’t join someone else’s circle, or that I could introduce him to some of my other friends after we’d become better friends.

And. That... Was the most off-base first impression I could’ve had.

Kakeru’s way more powerful than his appearance made me think, and I immediately learned that he’s extremely tough.

 

As if that small body of his is like a spring, he moves energetically, works energetically, talks energetically, and laughs energetically. That’s who Kakeru is.

He was not fragile! At all!

He eats loads, and he’s super unlucky!

He’s so gallant that he’ll show you that he can handle all sorts of things, like, “Bring it on~!”, but in the midst of it all... For some reason, a washbasin comes flying down from the sky to land a clean hit on him.

*chuckles* That’s the kind of person he is. I have no clue what that means, but it’s the truth.

Even still, he’ll laugh it off like nothing happened.

It makes me go, “Kakerun, you’re so strong!”

 

And the way his brain works is really fast, too. At any rate, all sorts of things are rotating in his head, revolving at high speed in his head.

When he makes his comebacks, the IQ for his snappy remarks could rival even Einstein’s!

You wouldn’t be able to understand with just test points in school.

I’m sure Kakeru is someone who embodies the concept of “witty, aware, high-comprehension.”

So, anyway!

 

Kakeru-san when we first met was a total illusion!

The real-life Kakeru-san in front of my eyes continues to be powerful, with his strong unluckiness!

But what remains unchanged from when we first met... His silky-smooth golden hair is just as brilliant, his huge eyes are just as sparkly!

His smile is just as incredible again today!

When he calls out to me, saying, “Koi, let’s go!” I rush out, going, “Of course!”

 

As always, Shiwasu Kakeru-kun is my most treasured, prided partner!
