Kyoko:
Oh, then that was a joke?
Godai:
???
Kyoko:
You said you loved me as a joke?
[???????"SLAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"]
Godai:
Th...Then it wasn't a nude dance...
Godai:
(n) Since that day, Kyoko-san hasn't talked to me, at all.
Ichinose:
I heard you two are fighting.
Kyoko:
With who?
Ichinose:
You and...
Godai:
See you later...
Ichinose:
Yeah, see you.
1st Women:
Hey... listen to what my husband did.
2nd Women:
What? What?
Godai:
Sigh.... (n) Though the sky is sunny like this, my heart is cloudy..

Maison Ikkoku Episode 09 The Mysterious Tennis Coach Is the Rival of Love!
[Can't go over the fence + Mitaka!!(See That!!), Godai!!]
Ichinose:
Oh, poor kid... Why don't you make up with him?
Kyoko:
What are you talking about?
Ichinose:
Oh, come on, in a normal case, if he passed by, you'd go
"Oh, Godai-san, are you going somewhere? Part-time? See you later!"
but now you don't even turn around.
Kyoko:
I..I'm not really...
Ichinose:
It's about that mess, right?
2nd Women:
About him shouting out drunk, "Kyoko-san! I LOVE YOU!" right?
Kyoko:
.......... Well, about that night. I'm sorry..
1st Women:
It's OK, it's OK.
2nd Women:
Hey, why don't you go out with him? If somebody told me that, I'd go for it!
1st Women:
Oh my ma'am.
2nd Women:
Why...? Ma'am...?
1st Women:
Well you... you...
Kyoko:
Uh... I...
1st Women:
You what?
Kyoko:
Uh... Because...
Ichinose:
Impossible. You want to be virtuous to your dead husband.....
2nd Women:
Now that's unhealthy.
1st Women:
I really wouldn't think that's good for you.
Ichinose:
You're still young, aren't you?
Kyoko:
Err... everybody...
1st Women:
Right! Why don't you start learning tennis?
Kyoko:
???
2nd Women:
This isn't a good way to say it,
but if you keep staying inside this kind of an apartment everyday...
1st Women:
Why don't you play every once in a while?
2nd Women:
You too.
Ichinose:
Oh yeah?
1st Women:
And you know, the coach is just so great...
Ichinose:
Oh...?
2nd Women:
Yeah, it's on next Sunday.
Both Woman:
See you then.
Kyoko:
Tennis, huh?
1st Women:
Who is that?
2nd Women:
Oh, that's the the "Love You!" widow.
All Women:
Oh yeah?
1st Women:
She looks so good in that tennis wear...
2nd Women:
Man she's so cute...
1st Women:
Come on she's young, she can look good in anything.
Ichinose:
We are here!
Kozue:
OK, then deliver it will ya?
Godai:
Sure.
Kyoko:
I wonder if I can do good...
1st Women:
It's Ok. The coach will teach you.
Ichinose:
You look pretty clumsy. Well, two of a kind, let's do it slowly, eh?
Mitaka:
Are you the new members? (teeth sparkle!...)
Kyoko:
Yes....
Mitaka:
I'm the coach, Mitaka. (teeth sparkle!...)
Kyoko:
Uh...err... pleased to meet you.
Mitaka:
Yes.
2nd Women:
His teeth shine, you know...
1st Women:
Even though they're not false teeth, right?
Mitaka:
OK, then first, we'll have to test you.
1st Women:
Why test?
Mitaka:
Well, we divide the class into A, B, and C courses, depending on the member's skill.
First, ma'am over there.
Ichinose:
He called me ma'am, I'm so embarrased!
Mitaka:
It's just a simple receive test.
Ichinose:
Alright, whenever you're ready!
Mitaka:
Th... then, here I go.
Dude:
Oh, it's Godai-kun, isn't it?
1st Merchant:
Part time work?
Godai:
Yes, thanks.
2nd Merchant:
Hey, it's Kyoko-san's turn.
Godai:
Kyoko-san!!
Mitaka:
Then, here I go!
Kyoko:
Yes!
1st Merchant:
Oh? She's pretty good.
Ichinose:
Looks like it...
Mitaka:
Alright, one more time.
2nd Merchant:
S..See that? They're lace...
1st Merchant:
I saw, I saw, I saw... so great.
Godai:
K.....Kyoko-San!!!
Mitaka:
OK, that's enough. You're in "A" class.
Kyoko:
Yes... Thank you.
Godai:
Who's that guy?
Ichinose:
You're pretty sneaky, aren't you?
Kyoko:
???
Ichinose:
With a troubled face, I wonder if I can do good...
Kyoko:
At any rate, would you please stop imitating me?!
Ichinose:
Hell of a difference from me in C course.
Kyoko:
I played a little in the tennis club in high school... I haven't felt so good for a while.
Mitaka:
Yeah, you really do have a talent.
But it's better if you correct your form a bit more...
Like this... See, the important part is in the hip.
Kyoko:
Yes!
Godai:
What's that guy doing!
2nd Merchant:
So that's the woman killer coach?
1st Merchant:
My wife just talks about him and that's it... She's over 50, you know?
Godai:
Woman killer? Leave! Kyoko-san! Run! Run!
Mitaka:
See?
Kyoko:
Yes, I see.....
Godai:
Why do you have to smile at that kind of guy, Kyoko-san!
2nd Merchant:
Godai-kun!
Godai:
Stop it! You pervert!
2nd Merchant:
Godai, wait.
Godai:
Wh...what is it?! Be quiet!
1st Merchant:
The ice had melted.
Godai:
AAAAARRRGGHHH!!!!
1st Merchant:
Well, there are lots of experiences to learn while you're still young.
Godai:
Damn... better find another part-time job...!
Ichinose:
AAAHHH! I'm so tired.
Kyoko:
But it's so good to sweat like that. It's like all the stress in your body goes out.
Ichinose:
And there's a good looking man.
[Back to Ikkoku-Kan]
Godai:
Hello...
Kyoko:
Oh, part-time?
Godai:
Yes.
Ichinose:
Must've been pretty busy, eh?
Godai:
Yes, I didn't even have time to take a break.
Ichinose:
I'm impressed. While we were playing tennis, you were working hard.
Godai:
Oh, tennis? I didn't know...
But a hard working student like me has no business with such things.
I'm tired for today..... I made it!
Souichiro:
"Baw?!"
Ichinose:
Don't be scared. If he had that much impression of the fence,
he must've been stuck there for a quite a long time, that idiot.
Kyoko:
Must have...
Kyoko:
Godai-san! A parcel for you.
Godai:
Ok.
Kyoko:
It's a parcel from home. I'll put it here, ok?
Godai:
........ !!!
Kyoko:
???
Akemi:
Wow, kanrinin-san. What a clothes!
Kyoko:
Oh, you think so? It's pretty hot, so...
Akemi:
It's harmful for the youth's eyes.
(Hell, it's better than Akemi's usual clothing! DS)
Kyoko:
Is..is that so?
Yotsuya:
Oh, is that a parcel from home? I envy students.
Akemi:
Hey, don't you think kanrinin-san changed?
Yotsuya:
Godai-kun, can I have these cans? Oh salmon and crab... gorgeous.
Akemi:
Didn't she used to be more elegant?
Yotsuya:
Yeah, but it may not necessarily be just because of the summer heat.
Akemi:
Could it be that she found a good man?
Godai:
Ah! Ah! Ah! M...M...M...M...M...MY CANNED FOOD!
(Too late, they're gone..... DS)
Yotsuya:
Hmm so that's him, kanrinin-san's man.
Godai:
You don't really know if he is or not, do you?
Yotsuya:
Don't you think they look well matched?
Godai:
I don't particularly trust a guy with shiny teeth.
Yotsuya:
He looks good, though.
Godai:
Tennis doesn't sound like a manly job.
Yotsuya:
I don't think so. He's earning bread with it... Better than a kid to some extent.
Godai:
And you're scavenging that kid's parcel.
Yotsuya:
Did you say something? Have I said anything offensive?
Ichinose:
You guys sure got time to waste.
Yotsuya:
We came to see kanrinin-san's man.
Ichinose:
Oh, the coach?
Godai:
Don't put it that way!
Ichinose:
Good man isn't he?
Yotsuya:
Yeah.
Mitaka:
You're such a lively lady.
Kyoko:
Oh, this is the first time anybody has said that to me.
Mitaka:
Oh?
2nd Women:
You're really starting to look happier than before.
Ist Women:
Oh yeah?
2nd Women:
You used look really absent minded.
1st Women:
As though you were inside some sort of shell.
Mitaka:
Oh? Then ma'am, over there.
2nd Women:
OK! Oki-san, hang in there. Way to go!
Kyoko:
Right... Maybe I can go back before meeting Souichiro-san, once more.
[In the bathroom]
Kyoko:
.........
Ichinose:
There you are... listen...
Kyoko:
OH! What do you want... all of a sudden?!
Ichinose:
Yeah. You've got a pretty good body, don't you?
Kyoko:
How should you know!
Ichinose:
Anyway, can you change quickly and invite the coach?
Kyoko:
Invite him to what?
Ichinose:
I want him to go drink tea with everybody.
Mitaka:
Tea? Happily. I'm honored that you invited me.
Kyoko:
No... actually... Others are coming along, too.
Yotsuya:
He held her hand so naturally.
Ichinose:
He must be used to doing it.
Yotsuya:
Yes, everybody is going together.
Godai:
No, I'm leaving!
Ichinose:
Everybody...not only ladies are going...?
Kyoko:
Not the ladies...
Yotsuya:
Is that so? Actually we are everybody.
Kyoko:
Err... These are the tenants of the apartment I live in...
Mitaka:
Oh....
Yotsuya:
Godai-kun, don't be intimidated.
Mitaka:
Nice to meet you, I'm Mitaka.
Yotsuya:
I'm Yotsuya.
Godai:
I'm Godai. (Both "sparkle"!)
Yotsuya:
Nice car... Used?
Mitaka:
Oh no, new.
Ichinose:
Must be expensive, eh?
Mitaka:
No. It's domestic, so it's about thirty-five to thiry-six mil.
Ichinose:
Why don't you buy bicycle or something?
(Come to think about it.. he actually went by without buying even a bicycle
through the entire series in both TV and manga version.. DS)
Akemi:
What's wrong?
Ichinose:
Good Evening.
Akemi:
Oh? What brings you here?
Yotsuya:
Let me introduce you to the woman killer we've been hearing about.
Mitaka:
Such a nasty way of putting it.
Akemi:
Wow... Kill me.
Mitaka:
Come on...
Akemi:
What do you want? Beer!
Yotsuya:
Ah, I'm driving, so I'll have lemonade.
Kyoko:
I'll have the same.
Godai:
Yeah, me too.
Ichinose:
Why? You don't even have a bicycle.
Godai:
....I don't feel like drinking.
Ichinose:
Come on, have a drink and do that again.
Akemi:
There.
Godai:
Do what?
Ichinose:
That one, that one.
Kyoko:
Ichinose-san!
Ichinose:
KYOKO-SAN! I LOVE YOU!
Godai:
.............
Mitaka:
(teeth sparkle!)
Kyoko:
Oh, come on, Ichinose-san, that was just a joke.
Ichinose:
Really?
Kyoko:
Right, Godai-san?
Godai:
No, it wasn't a joke.
Kyoko:
!!!
Godai:
I love you Kyoko-san. !!!!!!!!!
Yotsuya:
He said it.
Ichinose:
But looking at who?
Yotsuya:
Godai-kun, you did it!
Ichinose:
You can do it, if you want to, eh?
Akemi:
Kanrinin-san, aren't you happy?
Godai:
Don't laugh! I'm serious!
Kyoko:
Damn it! What's so funny about it! I'm leaving!
Ichinose:
Come on, it's hard. this is rather crowded seating.
Mitaka:
! Watch out! ".............................................."
Otonashi-san!
Yotsuya:
Shoot if she fell a bit further ahead..
Godai:
Kyoko-san!
Yotsuya:
Come on Godai-kun, sit, sit down.
Ichinose:
Come on, let's drink.
Godai:
Watch out! NO.....
Ichinose:
Come on, let's drink to celebrate your announcement in a sober state.
Godai:
Don't stop me!
Yotsuya:
You made your move, now it's the coach's turn to make a move.
Godai:
Whose side are you on?
Yotsuya:
We're on nobody's side.
Ichinose:
As long as it's fun!
Godai:
Now let go of me!!! I'm gonna get mad!!!
Akemi:
I'll leave the beer here, OK? But he sure is a good looking guy...
Mitaka:
Otonashi-san! I'm sorry I didn't mean it.
Kyoko:
Uh... I know it's my fault... It was an unfortunate accident.
Mitaka:
No, it was a fortunate accident to me.
Kyoko:
Uh!!!.......
Mitaka:
E..er.. No, those people, they're interesting, aren't they?
Kyoko:
They aren't totally bad,
but they have a bad habit of enjoying seeing people getting into trouble.
Mitaka:
What's the trouble?
Is it that troublesome that somebody tells you he loves you? Is it enough to...
Kyoko:
.... I'm a widow...
Mitaka:
Then you still can't forget about your husband...
Kyoko:
No, it's just that I don't want to. If I forget, Souichiro-san will really be dead.
MItaka:
......I guess it's going to take a real long time.
Kyoko:
Yeah.
Mitaka:
Well, I'm patient. I'll see you at the tennis court again. Bye!
Godai:
Let go of me!
Ichinose:
Don't run away!
Godai:
.... !! Kyoko-san..
Trailer:
Nobody was going to take Kentaro anywhere for his summer vacation.
So we decided to go to the beach.
Next episode on MAISON IKKOKU : "Beach Side Love Panic, the Rival Doesn't Like Dogs."
Mitaka-san, Souichiro likes you alot, he wants you to become part of the family.
When Godai tells Kyoko that he loves her, this isn't a deep love.
It's closer to the term like.
However, in subtitling the word 'love' gets the point across better.
