Kokoro Botan 20 Summary

It finally the start of the school festival! Nina and her friends decided to pay Koga a visit at his class' cafe when they stumble upon a crowd of girls. It was revealed that most of the girls were there to see Barista Koga. Not only that, the waiting time was around 90mins which was unbelievably to Nina. In the end Nina wasn't able to get in due to the crowd and with the feelings of disappointment, she couldn't help but feel like Koga seems so unreachable. Just so happens, Nina spots a competition for the best couple photo, earlier at the cafe, one of the girls told Nina that no one would've believe if she said she was dating. Therefore, in hopes of getting recognize as Koga's official girlfriend through the competition, Nina attempts to enter the competition but without Koga, her other option was to submit a couple photo they might have have taken before.

"Pho.. photo… ?"

"OMG!! WE'VE NEVER TAKEN A PHOTO TOGETHER BEFORE!!"

Just in the nick of time, Koga and Nina's little sister have arrived to meet up with Nina thereby finding out about the couple competition. However the photographer made a very embarrassing mistake whereby he thought Koga the Nina's little sis were a couple.

"In what way do we look like a couple? Don't kid me… IN THE FIRST PLACE I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT'S SO JOYOUS ABOUT PUBLICIZING YOUR COUPLE PHOTOS! THATS SO SHAMELESS! Ahhh~ what a mood spoiler. Thats it, I don't need the both of you to bring me around and I'm gonna walk on my own!"

With that, Nina's sister left furiously leaving Nina in a state of embarrassment and Koga finding the entire situation amusing.

Koga asks Nina if she still wants to take part but Nina decided not too any more after that incident. Knowing that Nina really wants to take part, Koga tempted her by telling her that the winners would get a pair of tickets to Rabbit park whereby they could go for a date. However, with the limited amount of time they have left, if they don't take part now they won't be able to anymore. Unable to win against her internal struggle, Nina confess that the purpose to take part was so that she could get a couple selca (self camera) with Koga and gain public's recognition.

"So it like what Aoi (Nina's sis) said… its embarrassing… "

Before Koga could reply, they were approached by two classmate who are searching of the missing Tani kun. Agreeing to help, Koga and Nina bumped into Aoi again saying that she last saw him heading towards one of the stairs.

They eventually found Tani at the school's roof.

"I'm not going up…. because Aoi chan will be in the audience right? During the last double date with Yuri, when we tried to trick Nina… "

And after Aoi knew what happened, she gave Tani a slap in his face thus from then on, she wouldn't accept his apologies and even remain nonchalantly when they meet on the streets. Hence, it came to Tani's conclusion that if Aoi sees him cross dressing and doing gags, all the more she wouldn't forgive him. Despite sympathizing Tani's situation, but without him, the show can't go on thus a heartless Koga called the rest of their classmates to pull Tani back to class. But as Tani was struggling not to go up, Aoi makes an appearance and reprimands Tani.

"Aren't you the lead? If you don't want to ruin everyone's effort get to the stage now! And I'll forgive you if you do a good job."

In a second Tani got back to his spirited self hence Class 5 were able carry with the performance.

Just before the performance, Koga told Nina its ok to boast that they are dating thats because when they're dating won't you feel proud? And if you do won't it make the opposite party happy? Thats why.

"I'M PROUD!" exclaims Nina.

"Haha. What was that? But… I would like to feel proud too?" whispers Koga.

Since Nina was holding onto a 'Biscuit' prop, it was just big enough to cover their faces for… a kiss on the forehead (haha what were you expecting? a kiss on the lips? I was though =x).

"Good luck."

The play progressed smoothly with everyone giving their best and bringing laughter to the audiences. After the curtain closes, the director was the most grateful for everyone that endured his harsh training. While congratulating one another, Koga quickly pulled Nina away, only to bring her back to the photographer to take their couple photo. Surprised, Koga explained that even though they had already pass the timing but through persuasion, the photographer let them took part in the couple competition.

"?! But… me in this mousy costume… ?"

"Why not? Its a great memory."

In the end Nina's and Koga's couple photo won the 'Best mouse award' . But as long as Koga was happy, Nina was okay with it. Also, what happened wasn't only interesting but also a great memory.

At the end of the day, a friend of Koga's was suppose to come but it seemed like he didn't make it in the end. Since he couldn't make it, Koga planned of showing 'him' their first couple photo which caused Nina to fluster.

Chinese Scans [HERE]

It's autumn! And the school is getting ready for their culture festival. This year, Nina's class is doing a stage play. Nina was instructed to find their main actress when Nina caught the actress and her boyfriend kissing along the corridors. Not embarrassed by their actions, she asked if it was the same for Nina, leaving Nina speechless. Nina couldn't believe kissing was something couple often did. After all, they had not shared a lip kiss since the previous one. Shocked, Nina's friends begin to suspect if they were really dating, thus coming to a conclusion that Koga might be shy in order to resolve the awkwardness.

"Ah! If thats the problem, with the right atmosphere it should be fine…"

After school, Koga found a fully make up Nina awfully quiet and not herself (the work of Nina's friends), adding to her awkward gestures, Koga asked if she wanted to kiss. Being so embarrassed by Koga's remarks, Nina ran home crying, at the same time envious of her friend's relationship.

The next day in school, when Nina was asked about the progress of 'yesterday', however, Koga could not have picked a better timing to appear. Still embarrassed from 'yesterday', her friends quickly picked up the atmosphere and brought her away. In class, Nina couldn't stop complaining how she could not face Koga anymore. She even sent a note to Koga to go back alone after school while keeping her self busy with the preparations for the festival. This was when Nina's friend reminded her that its the last day for her to see Koga. Because after that, there will be never ending rehearsals therefore making it hard for them to meeting. Envious of her friend's boyfriend coming over, Nina regrets running away from Koga just as he comes to look for her. Surprised at her get up, Nina explains that she is playing the role of a mouse in Cinderella (the skit they are acting). Looking forward to their skit, Nina is touched although she is still very embarrassed from the kissing incident.

"Nina… Can we go back together today?"

"!!!"

"So I'll wait for you at the school gate?"

"Ok! But it may take a little while before I'm done."

"It's ok. I'll wait for you at the library."

However, it was still too early for Nina to rejoice. Due the the director's strictness, there was countless retakes and it was getting late. Unable to contact Koga, Koga ended up coming to look for Nina. After Koga saw the current situation of the class, Nina gestured him to head back first and waved goodbye. After practice, Koga surprised Nina by waiting for her. When asked if he interpreted her gestures wrongly, Koga teased Nina by think she meant to wait downstairs.

"I waited for you because… I was thinking of kissing you."

This shocked Nina (big time), backing away from Koga asking him to forget about that incident. When asked why, Nina ignored and Koga cleared that he didn't find Nina weird but cute since he wasn't used to a make up Nina. Thus, with the right atmosphere, they shared their 3rd heartwarming kiss.

"Wow your friend really like to kiss huh"

"Yeah. Its countless"

"You wanna count?"

"Huh?"

"I think you won't be able to count them"

"NOOO! NOT NOW!"

The end

Chinese Scans [HERE]

Chapter 18 starts off with Yuri heading home from school when Koga said he heard from Nina that Yuri had quit her part time job but apparently Yuri said that she had no intentions in continuing the job. Now Koga wants to clear up everything with Yuri other than Nina, there were still many ways to get to Koga but because Yuri wanted to know how Koga's new girlfriend looked, she went to apply for the cafe job since they were hiring. But to Yuri's disappointment, not only was Nina an average looking girl, she also couldn't do her job properly. She didn't know Koga's taste was so weird. Expecting Koga to be angry, Koga nonchalantly said he was leaving if that was all Yuri had to comment.

After school Nina isn't able to head home with Koga due to work when she happens to see a group of girls with Yuri heading into a secluded place … [well I think they were arguing/talking about some couple issue here because the raw for this part was gone ;_; ] so continuing on, the conversation began to become more aggressive when a peeking Nina dropped a can and exposed herself. Upon seeing Nina, the girls left saying that they won't forgive Yuri if the same situation happens again. Asking why Nina is peeking, Nina stated that she was on her way to work when she happened to saw the situation. When Nina asked why Yuri had quit, Yuri said that she didn't want to see Nina because she is a flirter but Nina could tell she was being misunderstood. Embarrassed, Yuri shrugs its off with Nina being too busybody and leaves.

The next day at school, Koga wants Nina to leave Yuri but Koga knew from the look on Nina's face, she couldn't do it. On her way to work, Nina passes by the place where she met Yuri and goes in to take a look.

[Nina's thoughts]

I'm not actually worried about Yuri, its just that once i think of her, I've got this bad feelings. Maybe I shouldn't see her again. But, I keep having this guilty feeling.

Just then there was a crash, Nina rushes to the scene. Yuri was on the floor with another girl in a heated conversation and when the girl was about to hit Yuri with her bag, Nina stops her. When question how is Nina related to Yuri, Nina says that they aren't friends despite working together before. But she believe that Yuri and her are able to become friends. Speechless by Nina's answer, Nina continues on that the girl shouldn't be focusing on blaming Nina now but rather patching up with her boyfriend. Although irritated, the girl left. When Nina tried to help Yuri up, Yuri slaps Nina's hand ask why did a person like her help her. Shock yet displease with Yuri's attitude, Nina said she also didn't want to help or see Yuri in spite.

"If thats the case don't bother about me and go back being a good girl! Do you really want to attract Koga so much?!"

"This has nothing to do with Koga!"

"Why does it have to be Nina!! Why can he have a smooth relationship with Nina and not me… ?"

Thus a cat fight started between Nina and Yuri. They were later found by a relieve Koga who came looking for Nina but upon seeing them in a friendly fight, he takes a leave when Nina tries to call him back. Seeing a desperate side of Nina, Yuri bursts into laughter since they weren't much different.

Before heading off, Koga calls the school to inform them that he would be late due to some business in school and later runs with Nina to bring her to work although she is late for work too.

End of chapter 18.

On the next day, the four were grant with a nice weather but in order to get some time alone with Koga, Yuri and asked Kuni to stall Nina's time. Unable to do it, Kuni panics when Aoi comes out to check who rung the bell. Kuni explains that he is here to pick Nina up but unfortunately Nina had already left. Upon Aoi's suspicions, Kuni flees the scene with a slap mark on his face.

Koga then find Kuni at REP and is amused by the slap mark. Embarrassed, Kuni warns Koga about that. Shock  to find Nina at REP, Yuri calms herself and tells Nina that she seems excited but she is not looking forward to the outing at all. Speechless, Koga runs up to them and shields Nina. But Nina is all confused about the sudden happenings thus Koga had to apologize and reveal Yuri's identity of being his ex.

Since Kuni had explained everything to Koga, Koga wants to know what Yuri wants from them and Yuri explained that all she had done was so that she was able to meet Koga again but Koga refuse to believe. This irritated Yuri and she collects her cool and changes the topic. Koga then leaves with Nina leaving Kuni and Yuri behind. Covering up with laughter, Kuni ask Yuri if she likes it when someone she likes treats her coldly, thus leaving her alone.  

In a park, Koga hands Nina a drink. Nina recollects the happening from before. She still couldn't believe Yuri was Koga's ex despite knowing Koga was certain to have someone before thereby concluding that Yuri still likes Koga. However all these time, Koga had been holding onto Nina's hand and she had only came to realize that recently.

Koga then bring Nina to the place he used to go such as the road he used walk to school, a book shop he used to visit, his friend's place and lastly reaching his middle school whereby showing Nina where his and Kuni's class were.

"Would you hear me out?"

"…."

Koga starts explaining that Yuri and he date for only 10days in 2nd year and she was the one who confessed. While they dated, Koga couldn't achieve Yuri's ideals and she was also very unhappy when they dated therefore Koga told her that she was a bother because no matter what he did she was always crying thats why Koga decided not to have a 'relationship' anymore. Koga felt that maybe he should have told Nina earlier but when Kuni ask him about meeting Yuri again, he thought a rejection would have resolve the matter.

"After being with Nina, I've finally realized that sometimes its not possible to resolve matters alone."

Touched, Nina and Koga were about to get into a lovey dovey atmosphere when they were disrupted but the young onlookers from the school. On their way back, Nina was still embarrassed when Koga revealed that he used to be in the baseball club until 2nd year when he started going for extra classes.

[Nina thoughts]

Today, so many stuffs about Koga were revealed. Although they weren't all happy but as long as we're together we can face them together. I believe so.

Back home, Nina suddenly receive a call asking her to go back for work the next day because Yuri had suddenly quit.

Chapter 16 starts off with Nina dreaming of an amusement park date with Koga and feeling depressed that their next date will be the next year's firework event; then Nina's friend points out of the windows asking if that is Koga and Kuni, surprise at the fact that they are together.

At the back of the school, Koga is still puzzled as to why Kuni called him to such a secluded place.

"I guess you won't want Nina to be hearing this… about your previous girlfriend."

Kuni starts off with saying that he has recently met his previous girlfriend and she says she wants to see Koga again then asking him what he wants to do about it. On the other hand, Koga replies that he didn't know he had a girlfriend, shocking Kuni. Then Koga suddenly remembers a a girl he once dated for 1 to 2 weeks during the 2nd year of middle school who later scolded him to be horrible. But, Koga doesn't remembers the girl's name at all.

"Because I'm horrible, I don't plan on seeing her at all. Please tell her that."

Leaving a speechless Kuni.

The next scene starts with Nina reading a dating location book while waiting for Koga. Appearing behind Nina and surprising her by asking her what book she was reading. On their way home, Nina tries to bring in an aquarium topic to get a date from Koga. Realizing what she was up too, Koga teases her by saying that couple often break up after going to that particular aquarium. Nina starts to panic, amusing Koga. Finally, Koga gives her a final tease by asking if she was to let him do that, as usual, Nina took it the wrong way when it just meant on going on a date. An angry Nina was about to enter her house when Koga tapped on her shoulder and gave her a surprise cheek kiss. After waving goodbye, Nina falls to her knees at the her house, freaking Aoi with her cloud nine actions again.

Next scene starts at Nina's work place. Tomo nii tells Nina about a newcomer at who will be replacing him their workplace and asked her to take care of her. With his acceptance for a job, he is unable to continue being Nina's tutor too. Although Nina is a little upset with his leaving, Tomo nii reassured her that he will regularly takes his dinner and congratulating her about her relationship with Koga cheer's Nina up. Then interrupted by Tomo nii's ex girlfriend, the new comer is introduced with Nina awed at her cuteness.

When Tomo nii and his ex were alone, knowing Tomo nii like Nina, his ex asked if its ok if Nina is taken but Tomo nii feints ignorance, pissing his ex off. Calling him a loll con (Lolita complex), she left the scene.

Back at the cafe, Nina is left in charge of guiding the new girl. Nervously guiding the newcomer, the girl introduces herself, Shin Yuri(真 由梨), who is of the same age as Nina.

The next day in school, Nina tells her friend all about Yuri until she is interrupted by her friend asking her how come she is still working when it was only for the summer holidays. Nina said it was to save up for the next date but later realized that they had not set a specific day yet. Panicking, Nina quickly asks how to get Koga thinking about the next date only to be teased by asking her to be more sexy. Later realizing the missing Kuni kun who usually runs up to them who was depressingly squatting at one conner.

One night after work, Nina and Yuri head home together  as they chat about Koga just as Yuri asked about their usual dating spots, they happen to meet Kuni at a magazine stand. Both of them called out to Kuni but Yuri was even more surprised as it was made known that Yuri and Kuni classmates in the 2nd year of middle school. Upon knowing they were from the same school, Nina asked if Yuri knew about Koga, without question, of cos she knew Koga but knowing how to explain (I think she was Koga's ex), Kuni quickie changed the conversation into a date. Not taking Kuni seriously, Nina was about to pass it off as a joke when Yuri asked if its going to be a double date. Saying that it wasn't a bad idea and it could be fun, Yuri suggested that the 4 of them (Nina, Yuri, Kuni, Koga) go for it. This meant that it was an opportunity for Nina to go on a date with Koga again. She thanked Kuni and runs off to inform Koga immediately. Before she left, Yuri asked if she could keep their meeting a secret as she wants to give him a surprise. Of course a naive Nina agreed and the next scene starts with Nina informing Koga about the double date.

But Koga bursted her bubble of excitement saying that he is totally uninterested in going and he couldn't comprehend why Nina would want he to go on a date so much. Disappointed, Nina said that she also couldn't comprehend why Koga wouldn't just go on a date with her (even though its a double date).

"Koga… don't you even want to go on a date?"

"I do"

"You've just made me want to go on a date. How to say this… its because you're cute!"

"So when, where and who's going?"

Shocked by Koga's answer Nina can't help but say Koga is such a weird guy while Koga teases her back by asking if she wants to break up.

Back with Yuri and Kuni, Yuri said that she was scared they had almost exposed themselves. But Kuni couldn't get why Yuri would want to get involve with Nina when all she wanted was to see Koga again. But Yuri said she couldn't stand Koga seeing so happy yet in a way, her actions could help Kuni get Nina.

Ch 15 Chinese Scans [HERE]
.
Continuing from Chapter 14's confession, Nina knows that this isn't a dream. They sat by the river holding hands till Nina gets embarrassed as she still could not believe that she is really dating Koga. Nina then gets a text from her mother telling her to get back home soon since it was getting late. Although Nina wanted to stay for a while longer, she got up while Koga pulled her back asking if they could redo 'it'. Nina became embarrassed from thinking it was the kiss but Koga claimed the 'it' to be a date. This causes Nina to fluster and they planned their next date to be another firework viewing session. Koga then says he wants to head out during the day in their next date so that they could catch a movie. Nina agrees happily.

"Lets redo that too."

Surprising Nina as Koga suddenly pecks on her lips and later hugs her. A flustered Nina faints from excitement while Koga offers to bring her back.

Back home, Nina arrives just when dinner was ready. Worried, Aoi comes to check on Nina explaining that their mom was getting worried. Nina who is in cloud nine freaks Aoi out with her gestures.

"If this is a dream, I hope I won't wake up"

Next morning, Nina wake up in her bed thinking everything that happened was a dream till her mother came with a dress for her date with Koga.

"I'm not dreaming… !!"

Nina rush to the meeting point where Koga was waiting. As she approached Koga, Nina started tearing still asking Koga if it was a dream. Amused, Koga held her hands assuring her that it isn't thus starting the date. After having a fun day, it was time for dinner before the main event. As Koga looked for alternate ways to get to the fireworks, it caused Nina to fluster because Koga didn't want to let Nina be squeeze with the rest.

"It.. feels.. like I'm really his girlfriend. No, I'm his girlfriend! Yea!" Nina thought.

However, her train of thoughts was disrupted by a conversation behind her and the contents were about a situation that was exactly like Nina's and Koga's. Panic, Nina started to think if she should have left everything to Koga to plan instead of saying "anything" just when Koga has found another route; but the bad news was that it might rain thus the fireworks event may be cancelled therefore it might be better for them to head back early if not they could walk for a while more. But the panicking Nina insisted that they should go to places Koga wanted to go, later thinking if she should be the one bringing him around. Seeing the mentally stressed Nina, Koga suggested a place where they can be alone. With that, Koga pulled her away, coincidentally bumping into Kuni kun who sadly asked if they were on a date and where they were heading despite the sun setting; Koga teases him by not telling. 

On the train, Nina can't help by wondering where they are heading when it started to rain. After getting off, Koga said,

"Actually grocery store is fine. No matter where, as long as I can be with Nina, won't it be fun?"

Surprised, Nina tucked on Koga's sleeve when he suggested they should head back though it was amity they couldn't catch the fireworks again. Saying that they could still see the fireworks. And her plan was firework sticks. Despite the compromise, they still had fun and while Nina was happy remembering Koga's speech, Koga suggested they should watch the fireworks again next year. Thought it surprised Nina, but she was looking forward to it as well.

The next scene start with the new semester. Nina starts school with a confident look of being an 'official girlfriend'. Just so happens, Koga greets her causing her to fluster saying that she doesn't know how couple should behave in school. Amused, Koga just replied that its no different from before thus shocking Nina.

"Then the next… date…"

"Next? Ohh! You said its the fireworks event next year!"

"Ne.. Next year?!"

Leaving a devastated Nina for class, Koga waved goodbye. At that time, Nina's classmates started to congratulate her on dating Koga but shock from the previous conversation with Koga, Nina is no  where near happy.

On his way to class, Koga was stopped by Kuni kun saying that he wants to talk to Koga about his ex girlfriend…
