You can't be born again, but you can change.
Simply put, I'm glad that manga as an expressive form is expanding.
To be left behind. . . or to leave behind. I wonder which hurts more.
Momiji Sohma: Are you sure? Shigure said it hurt really bad. Hatori Sohma: Yes, well, I did that on purpose. Shigure Sohma: Oh, Ha'ri, you're killing me! Why would you be so cruel? Hatori Sohma: It seemed to be the only way to shut you up at the time.
Tohru(thinking): There is an umeboshi-- on your back. Tohru (outloud): Maybe the reason people get jealous of eachother is because they can clearly see the umeboshi on other people's backs. I can see them too. I can see them perfectly. There is an amazing umeboshi on your back, Kyo-kun.
It's all very simple. But maybe because it's so simple, it's also hard.
I want to believe that I'm not wrong. I want to believe that life isn't full of darkness. Even if storms come to pass, the sun will shine again. No matter how painful and hard the rain may beat down on me.
Because even the smallest of words can be the ones to hurt you, or save you.
I love the stars. Because they can't say anything. I love the stars. Because they do not judge anyone.
OH KYO KUN! Isn't it said that eating pink noodles turns you into a horny pervert?!
Did you hear that! Yuki, the heartless Yuki! Heartless Yuki has begged me with tears to let him visit my shop!

You must always be yourself, and do things at your own pace. Someday, you'll catch up.
True kindness isn't something we're born with. It's something we have to work at. Not everyone has it. But I think everyone has the potential. Sometimes you just have to look really close before you can tell it's there. "-Kyoko
I'm sure that inside your heart. . . you're trying with all your might to find it on your own. . . the reason you were born. Because. . . because really. . . there might not be anyone who was born with a reason. I think that everyone. . . everyone might have to find one on their own. [in her head] A reason for being born. . . A reason that it's okay to be alive. . . A reason to exist. [aloud] I think everyone might have to find it themselves. . . and decide it for themselves. It could be your dreams. . . your job. . . or a person. . . The reason you're looking for. . . might be vague, unclear. . . and uncertain. [in her head] And you might lose it. [aloud] But as long as you're alive. . . you have to keep searching for that reason.
No. Never. I have to try my best or I'll become worse and worse. Even if I can't make up with them. Even if they all ignore me. I still have to try my best.
There's no such thing as a person who has to go away.
