[English]

Yesterday, today, and tomorrow are all full of anxiety!

Seimei Fire!

Yeah!

(Yah!!)

One, two—ugh!

Dara tat-tatta, ta-ra-ta-ra!!

High Five—toward the clapping hands!

It's a retake test—stop at this finger!

Starting with question 1, I don't get it.

Just run away and win by forfeit!!

Run Away Run Away Run Away!

(High touch!)

Run Away Run Away!!

Dara tat-tatta, ta-ra-ta-ra!!

Come on! Sleep through the fifth period—MAX!

We Are

Time Reaper!

Nice, nice—the humans are great.

There's no way you'd think that.

You can't fall in love at a glance, not even after a thousand years.

Turns out, a little over 110 years is the limit.

Coy and girly—morning neighbor!?

Bare legs look so slender; nothing pops into my mind at a glance!!

Just talk already—don’t tell me to shut up about you.

(Everything, all of it.)

Failures galore—Big Don't Mind!! It’s a tie.

(A tie?)

Self-study time! Yay yay yay!!

(Yay!)

Pop quiz! Say Say Say!!

(Boo!!)

Emergency! Challenge! The Amida lottery!

How do you pronounce this?

Orange!!!!

Yesterday, today, and tomorrow are full of anxiety too

(Sounds scary.)

More Happy Happy Happy

Then how about this? It’ll give you courage, right?

A comedic homeroom teacher

Transform! Fire!

Ebi Bari Say!! Ebizori Turn!!

Our Season

Ebi Bari Say!! Ebizori Turn!!

Total fail

It's okay to get hurt

Let's make a big comeback

Surely, in a flash, at last—the real thing

Your meaning

Ebi Bari Say!! Ebizori Turn!!

(Watch our ebi-zori—Da-Dan-Dan!!)

Ebi Bari Say!! Ebizori Turn!!

(See? See? See? See? See!!)

Are yesterday, today, and tomorrow also full of anxiety?

Another day today.
