0:00

So, where are the other students? I'm the only one here.

0:07

Excuse me? Man, this is turning into a total disaster.

0:14

I'm Leo Kimura, a high school sophomore. It was pretty much time for us to hand in those forms about our future career plans, but...

0:25

There's no way I can decide my whole life at 16! Making high schoolers pick their future already is insane, right?

0:35

It's definitely something to stress over. You already know what you want to do, though, Otakura.

0:42

You're going to become the CEO of a talent agency, right? Yep.

0:47

I want to help raise and support my favorite idols.

0:51

I'm planning to go to a university that specializes in entertainment management first.

0:57

Man, that's awesome. I wish I had a dream like that. Ow!

1:05

Sorry, are you okay? Watch where you're going.

1:11

Sorry about that. Crap, I really screwed up. That's Marie Mori.

1:20

She was the only daughter of the powerful Mori group. Known for their hospitals and pharmaceutical businesses.

1:28

And she was pretty much the queen of the hill at our private school, Kwe Wahai.

1:34

Top grades, top athlete, gorgeous face, perfect at everything.

1:39

But there was this one rumor everyone knew at our school. She's completely ice cold toward guys.

1:47

She's as intimidating as ever. We're actually in the same group for the school trip, but she barely talks to me.

1:56

I heard she's not comfortable around men in general. So I doubt she's specifically avoiding you, Leo.

2:04

I hope so. Come on, the school trip's almost here. Let's just enjoy it.

2:11

Cruising around tropical islands on a boat sounds so exciting. Yeah, you're right.

2:17

I'll worry about my future after the trip. At the time, that's honestly what I thought.

2:24

But just a few days later, I got dragged into something completely insane.

2:31

Where the heck am I? Wait, don't tell me we're stranded.

2:35

It happened during the school trip while we were touring islands by boat.

2:41

Out of nowhere, a massive storm hit. The ship tilted violently, and both me and one other person got swallowed by the waves.

2:51

And that other person was... Ma-Marie, wake up!

2:58

I think we just washed up on some island or something. This situation is a total disaster.

3:08

Wait, no way. She's not breathing. Crap, what do I do? Oh, right.

3:16

I need to do mouth-to-mouth on her right now. What do you think you're doing? Ow!

3:25

Putting your face that close to a girl who's asleep is just gross! I was trying to save you!

3:32

More importantly, we're in huge trouble! I think we got stranded and I have no clue where we are!

3:40

If nobody rescues us, we're screwed! Just calm down! Being stranded isn't a big deal!

3:48

Not that big a deal! I always carry a high-performance GPS with me!

3:55

My servant, Charo Yabasugi, will definitely find us. Don't underestimate the Mori family.

4:02

Dang, that's pretty impressive. So, where are the other students?

4:10

Uh, it's just me here. Excuse me?

4:15

You're telling me I'm stuck alone with you? And if you try getting close to me again, I won't forgive you.

4:23

I told you I won't! I don't really trust you.

4:29

Can we at least focus on waiting for rescue first?

4:35

Yeah, she totally hates me. This is gonna be rough.

4:40

Even though Marie clearly wasn't happy about the situation, we still had to work together if we wanted to survive.

4:48

So we started comparing what supplies we had. A knife, flashlight, they're pretty useful stuff, right?

4:56

And then there's your stuff. Seriously, what is this? Why are you carrying around a signed book?

5:03

It's rare, okay? I was gonna show it to my friends. Unbelievable!

5:13

Anyway, first we need to secure drinking water. We'll filter seawater and drink that.

5:19

We can carry water using this tote bag and... Wait, it's leaking? Ugh, seriously?

5:26

Here, you can use this if you want. A plastic bag? Yeah, if you do this...

5:34

It turns into a makeshift water container. Plastic bags are actually super useful for survival stuff.

5:43

Huh, I see. Not a bad idea. Oh, but seawater isn't safe to drink.

5:51

If we want fresh water, let's check over there. Huh?

5:56

Wait, there's water in a place like this? I don't even see a river nearby. Found some.

6:03

Rainwater should be drinkable. That water is filthy. We're gonna get sick.

6:10

It's fine. I'll filter it properly. Are you serious? A few minutes later.

6:18

The water's actually clear now. Looks like it worked somehow.

6:23

You built that filtration system way too fast. Who even are you?

6:29

Honestly, I just saw it in survival videos online.

6:33

Apparently, you can't safely filter seawater that way, so... Wait. Survival videos?

6:42

Yeah, I watch them as a hobby. I'm just copying what I saw, but I'm glad it worked. Huh.

6:50

Guess you got lucky. Well, at least now we can drink water. Not yet.

6:57

We still need to boil it first. So next up is starting a fire.

7:04

Leave that to me. If we shave down some of this wood, it should catch fire pretty easily, right?

7:12

I'll use my self-defense knife for this. You carry a self-defense knife?

7:18

When you're the only daughter of the Morty family, you never know what could happen.

7:24

I usually carry pepper spray too. Wow, sounds like you're well prepared.

7:31

You have to protect yourself. Okay, so if I do this... Huh?

7:38

Why isn't this working? This feels totally different from using a kitchen knife.

7:45

Mind if I try for a second? Ooh, it's just like the videos. Wow.

7:53

I really like those scenes where they carve wood with knives. So I've rewatched them a ton.

8:00

I'm basically just imitating what I saw, though. You learned all that just from watching videos? Not bad.

8:11

Oh, wait! That wasn't what you think! Hmm? My stomach wasn't growling, it was a...

8:17

you know! Well, it's been forever since breakfast.

8:23

I don't have much, but you can have some if you want. I'm fine. I can handle being hungry.

8:31

Besides, rescue should be here soon. Wait, what? What happened?

8:40

The GPS isn't working. It must have broken during the storm. Now we have no idea when rescue's coming.

8:47

Yeah, I didn't think it would be this easy. In that case... Here you go.

8:53

All the more reason for you to eat something. Sweet stuff helps you calm down, too.

9:00

But that's yours. Come on, don't worry about it.

9:05

Why are you being so nice to me? If it's just because I'm part of the Morty family, you don't have to force yourself.

9:13

I've got two older sisters, and they always drill into me. Be nice to girls.

9:18

So this just feels normal to me. Plus, if I don't, they'll totally chew me out later.

9:25

Is that so? Then let's split it in half. I'll go look for more food while I'm getting the fire going.

9:34

You go ahead and eat first. Thanks. After that, I started a fire and searched for food.

9:42

There were edible wild plants all over the forest. And plenty of fish in the shallow water.

9:49

Some of the stuff that washed ashore looked useful too. Yeah, I think we can actually survive out here.

9:57

Thank you, those random survival videos. Huh. He's actually kinda sweet.

10:05

That night. It's getting cold. Are you okay? Hang on a sec.

10:11

I think it'll warm up soon. Are you sure about this? That's important to you, right?

10:20

I feel bad for the author and the book. But we can't afford to get sick while stranded out here.

10:25

And you looked freezing, Marige. What's with you acting all cool all of a sudden?

10:34

I'm not trying to look cool or anything. But the book alone won't be enough fuel, so I'm gonna grab some branches.

10:41

I'm coming too. I really think you should stay here. The forest's dangerous at night.

10:49

You don't need to worry about me. I've practiced karate since I was little. I'm a black belt.

10:56

Honestly, I might be the most dangerous thing on this island. Shh! Don't move! Snake!

11:06

It's a pit viper. It's venomous. Venomous!

11:11

We'll be okay as long as we don't freak out and provoke it. Don't move until it leaves. Okay!

11:20

A few minutes later. Looks like it's gone. That was terrifying!

11:27

Marie, you got scratched! Let me see! It's just a scrape from a branch.

11:34

I can handle something this minor myself. You had a handkerchief, right? Let me borrow it. Fine!

11:43

Even small cuts can get seriously infected. You can't take this stuff lightly. Sorry.

11:51

I totally misunderstood you and treated you harshly. Even though you've been helping me this whole time.

11:59

Nah, it's because I acted weird at the beginning, remember? And people say you're not good with guys, right?

12:06

So, I get it. That's just a rumor. I just keep creepy guys away on purpose.

12:14

Oh, so that's what it was. Well, I'd be happy if you relied on me more from now on.

12:21

Though I'm basically just a newbie who watches videos online. We should probably head back to camp.

12:29

You're probably exhausted, too. I can't believe there's actually a guy who cares this much about me. Hmm?

12:37

Did you say something? It's nothing.

12:41

I'd lost track of how many days we'd been stranded on the island.

12:45

But ever since the snake incident, Marie had been acting a little strange. Hmm?

12:54

What? I was just checking if the food was done cooking. Uh, okay.

13:01

I swear I felt someone staring at me. Maybe it's just my imagination.

13:08

Oh, sorry. What's wrong? Nothing at all!

13:16

Huh? The next morning... Whoa!

13:23

What are you doing? Just checking to make sure you are still alive.

13:29

I'm alive, okay? She's been acting really weird lately. Is she sick or something?

13:37

A few more days pass like that. School's probably starting career counseling around now.

13:45

Have you figured out your future plans yet? Not even close. What about you, Marie?

13:51

It's already been decided that someday I'll marry a man into the Marie family and settle down.

13:57

Honestly, I'm kinda jealous your future's already decided. I don't even know what I want to do.

14:04

Maybe living on this island forever won't be so bad. Just kidding.

14:11

Sorry, that was messed up to say, huh? I was joking.

14:17

Or mentally escaping reality, you know. I see.

14:21

If rescue never comes, we really can't leave this island.

14:27

They'll definitely come save us, so don't worry. There's no way you'd actually want to spend your life stranded out here with me, right?

14:36

Sorry for freaking you out No If it's with you With Leo I wouldn't mind

14:47

Let's just give up and live here together forever Wait, cut it out

14:53

As long as I have you I can survive Right? Let's stay here Together forever!

15:02

Calm down, Marie! I am perfectly calm.

15:07

After logically analyzing the situation, I believe this is the best option.

15:12

That is not logical at all! Can we focus on escaping this island first?

15:18

We can talk about all this after we survive, okay?

15:24

Hmm, I guess you have a point. I'll let you off the hook for today.

15:30

That was way too close But you better prepare yourself, Leo

15:37

For now, though, good night Good night Yeah, there's no way I'm getting any sleep tonight The next morning

15:48

Uh, it's kinda hard to walk like this What if another snake shows up?

15:55

It's dangerous Didn't you say you were a black belt and super tough?

16:01

I'm a black belt. But snakes are a different story. Seriously?

16:08

So get close to me, Leil. Okay, come on. Okay.

16:19

She totally steamrolled me. After that, Maria kept moving at her own pace non-stop.

16:28

Where are you going? I'm coming too, so don't leave me behind. I'm literally just going to the bathroom.

16:36

I'm cold. Let me hold your hand. Isn't it super hot right now?

16:43

I just want to feel your warmth there. What am I supposed to do with this?

16:48

A little while later. By the way, how'd you even get into survival videos in the first place?

16:57

I've always been losing to my two older sisters, so I kind of wanted to get stronger.

17:03

At first, I watched martial arts videos, but before I knew it, I got hooked on survival stuff instead. What?

17:12

So basically your sisters are the reason we survived out here. Yeah, I guess so.

17:21

Unlike me, my sisters always knew what they wanted to do with their lives.

17:25

I admire them, but at the same time, I can't help comparing myself to them.

17:31

I feel like I'm just empty, you know? That's not true at all. Huh?

17:38

You actually take knowledge and put it into action. Filtering water and starting a fire just from watching videos is seriously impressive.

17:47

And I was really happy when you treated my injury, too. I think you'd be good at a job where you help people, you know?

17:55

Being able to act for someone else's sake is a real strength. Thanks.

18:01

Maybe I actually do have some good qualities. That kind of makes me happy.

18:08

I need to do my best, too. After that, Mario became even more motivated than before.

18:15

You don't have to carry all that. I'll help too. I'm fine. I need to be useful too. But...

18:25

It's okay. Don't worry about it. A few minutes later. Okay.

18:31

Maybe I pushed myself a little too hard. That's exactly what I warned you about.

18:39

You should rest for today. Hey. Do you really think rescue is coming?

18:45

Yeah, I'm sure they will. You're right.

18:49

And even if nobody comes, I could just live here with you forever. Right, Lael?

18:56

Is she overworking herself to distract from being scared? I hope she's okay.

19:03

A few days later. Lael, remember when I told you I was supposed to marry into a family arrangement someday?

19:10

Yeah, I remember. It's true that having your future decided for you is easier.

19:18

But... But you know... Hmm?

19:23

Honestly, if I had to choose someone to marry into our family... I'd want it to be you, Leo.

19:32

Say what? Would you not like that?

19:37

It's not even about liking or not liking it. That's just...

19:45

Wait, are you wobbling a little, Marie? You've got a fever!

19:54

You need to rest right now! What are you doing?

20:00

I'm taking you to a way cooler spot! Don't! I'm heavy! Stop worrying about that!

20:07

I'm sorry I didn't notice sooner! I think this is the medicinal plant I saw in that video.

20:15

But will it actually work? If her fever doesn't go down, what's going to happen to Marie?

20:22

These herbs might not be enough. I'm going back into the forest one more time. I'll be back ASAP.

20:31

Wait! Don't go! Stay here with me! Mariette...

20:38

Will you listen to me? If we don't make it out of here, I don't want to leave things unsaid.

20:45

I honestly hated the idea of marrying someone chosen for me just for my family's sake.

20:51

And after I fell for you, I hated it even more. Am I being selfish?

20:56

Wanting to spend my whole life with you? That's not selfish at all.

21:02

Those are your real feelings, right? When we get off this island, let's tell your family everything.

21:09

I'm sure they'll understand. Leo?

21:15

We've gotta survive until rescue comes. I'm not giving up.

21:20

Then when we get home together, we'll tell my family? Yeah, I promise. Thank you.

21:28

If only I knew more. No, regretting it won't help anything now. I'm gonna save Mari-ing no matter what.

21:37

That night, I stayed up until morning taking care of her without sleep at all.

21:42

And then, the next afternoon... Leia?

21:53

You stayed with me the whole time? I'm really glad you were here. Crap, I fell asleep.

22:03

You're finally awake. Wait, what about your fever? How do you feel? Are you okay?

22:10

Looks like it finally went down thanks to you. I seriously can't thank you enough, Leo.

22:17

Thank goodness. I'm sorry I didn't notice sooner.

22:22

No, I'm the one who should apologize for making you worry.

22:27

I promise I won't do anything reckless and be a burden to you and cause you trouble again. You're not a burden at all.

22:34

I just don't know when rescue is coming, so don't push yourself. Lady Maria!

22:43

Wait, that voice! Fear not! Your loyal servant Chato has arrived!

22:51

The GPS signal was lost midway through, but I searched like a madman starting from the last known location!

23:01

That's Leo! Oh, thank goodness! Thank goodness you're safe! We're coming to get you guys now!

23:09

Hang in there! Thank God. Everyone else made it too.

23:16

We can finally go home. I'll have to reward Chato for finding us.

23:22

I'm happy we're going home, but honestly, I'm kind of sad too.

23:28

Once we leave this island, I probably won't have any reason to see you anymore. That's not true.

23:37

Huh? I think I finally figured out what kind of future I want.

23:42

There's still a lot I want to learn from you, Marie.

23:45

So, when we get back to school, can we keep talking?

23:50

About career stuff, studying, and all that. Of course we can!

23:57

I want to talk to you too! So then, what path do you want to take?

24:04

Well, you see... After that, we were rescued safely.

24:10

Our survival life on the deserted island became the hottest rumor in school almost overnight.

24:16

I heard you saved Maria. That's incredible. You're like some kind of action movie ranger now.

24:23

So cool. Thanks.

24:27

Hey, is it true you killed a king cobra and cooked a bear in a pot?

24:34

Okay, the rumors are getting way out of hand. On the day of career counseling. I see.

24:41

Looks like you finally found some direction too, Leo. Yeah.

24:47

There are a lot of careers where you can help people. Just think carefully about which one truly fits you.

24:55

So, yeah, I've kind of figured out my direction now, but do you think I can really do this?

25:02

You'll be fine. Just believe in yourself.

25:06

Besides, surviving on a deserted island is one heck of a resume booster, don't you think? True.

25:14

Then, yeah, this is definitely the path for me.

25:18

Marie smiled while looking at the career form I filled out.

25:23

Apparently, she also told her parents that she wanted to choose her own future for herself.

25:29

And surprisingly, they said they wanted to respect her decision. After school...

25:35

Thanks for helping me study. Well, you asked me to.

25:41

Back on the island, you said you wanted me to teach you all kinds of things once we got home.

25:47

Man, the deserted island thing was only a few days ago. But it already feels like forever ago.

25:55

Kinda nostalgic, honestly. Do you remember that night when I had the really high fever and was half conscious?

26:03

Wait, you remember that? I remember everything. Eek!

26:11

Leo, you said you wanted to spend your life with me, remember?

26:14

You said we had to survive and make it home together for that reason, too. Huh?

26:21

Wait, that's not exactly what I meant. Oh, right.

26:27

And you also promised we'd become a family once we got rescued. I... what?

26:34

You said we'd go home together and become a family. A promise is a promise, right?

26:41

Th-that is a very generous interpretation of what I said.

26:46

I already decided I'm never marrying anyone except you. We're gonna be together forever now, Leo. Wait, hold on a sec.
