“By the way, didn’t Minoha come for some reason?”
Kentarou desperately tries to switch the topic.
Minoha thinks to herself that she’ll properly investigate the identity of the woman later.
“Actually, I wanted to borrow a DVD.”
“Sure! What title?”
Kentarou hopes Minoha will leave soon, before the woman starts talking about unnecessary things.
“Uh, I forgot the title… what was it again?”
“What? Give me a hint.”
“It’s a French movie. I want to use it for my French report.”
“Uh-huh…”
“Amélie.”
“Oh! I love that one! But that’s not it.”
“May’s Mill.”
“I like that one too. But still not it.”
“The Big Blue?”
“Wrong. Oh, but it might have a similar title… uh, Blue…
Remember, you said you got the complete version the other day…”
“Right, Betty Blue!”
Kentarou’s face turns red.
“Th-That one is a no-go.”
“Why not? Come on, lend it to me.
Kentarou, you used to say it was a must-see!”
“That version is different from the theatrical release.
It’s better if you skip it.”
“You should really skip it,” the woman interjects, and for some reason, her face is also turning red.
“Have you seen it too?”
“It’s in my data.”
“What’s that supposed to mean? Well, whatever, just lend it to me, Kentarou.
If you’re worried about lending it, let’s watch it together here.”
“No way, no way, no way, absolutely not!”
“Why not? You need to give me a proper reason!” Minoha insists with a motherly tone.
The woman speaks seriously, blushing.
“Kentarou-sama, what do you plan to do with that kind of perspective?
Ah, by ‘perspective,’ I mean it in a modern context, not the original meaning. It means to view with suspicion.”
Forgetting Minoha’s presence, Kentarou responds, “Thank you for the explanation, Miss.
I see you have a lot of knowledge.”
“What does that even mean? Do you understand why the woman can’t lend it?”
“That movie is a masterpiece that depicts a deep, profound love between a man and a woman.
However, it does contain scenes that might be mistaken for AV due to its expressive nature.
There are intense acts typical of French cinema.
It was cut for its theatrical release.”
The woman’s blushing doesn’t fade.
“Oh, I see.”
Minoha feels a bit embarrassed but says, “In that case, I definitely want to see it!”
“Is it okay if there’s a naked guy swinging around?!”
The woman cheerfully exclaims.
“Don’t say it like that! It’s a great movie!” Kentarou shouts.
