“But... If you're the kind of person who can devote herself like that to someone, then I'll bet you anything there's someone out there who'll fall in love with you.”

Raku Ichijou, a first-year student at Bonyari High School, is the sole heir to an intimidating yakuza family. Ten years ago, Raku made a promise to his childhood friend. Now, all he has to go on is a pendant with a lock, which can only be unlocked with the key which the girl took with her when they parted. Now, years later, Raku has grown into a typical teenager, and all he wants is to remain as...
“But... If you're the kind of person who can devote herself like that to someone, then I'll bet you anything there's someone out there who'll fall in love with you.”
“Making sure I have no regrets... that would just be self-serving, nothing more. It's all right. I mean, this is a great memory in itself, right?”
“You're right. Whether I ever see that girl again or not, that doesn't change the fact that this promise is important to me. I'm gonna go on treasuring it.”
“Love does not hurt when you're loving the right person.”
“Oh? What are you surprised about!? Do you think that I'm someone who would give up after being rejected just once!? Hospitalized or not, I shall continue to polish myself and become even moooore of a spectacular lady, and return to you!!”
“I confessed you know!? Many, many times! Even though I knew the answer from my mouth... with my voice! I confessed you know!? Have you ever looked at Raku straight in the eyes!? Is that all you've got for Raku!? At least for the last time, you need to be a little more truthful to yourself!! If you really liked him, then you can't just pretend like nothing ever happened!!”
“The length of time you've been in love isn't the only thing that matters, right?”
“Traditions that don't benefit people today are worthless.”
“So you feel like you're being dishonest or something? That's not true. It's a great thing to come to like someone. If you ask me... The important thing here is, that you have to make a clear choice between the two of them.”
“I won't come to hate you! Never! Regardless of what happens in the future!”
“Holding in your own feelings like that... ye think tha' no one's gonna get hurt since ye're not lettin' it show to anyone? Tha's just the same as goin' 'round hurting everyone anyway!! What ye're doin' isn't ye keepin' everyone dear to ye!! Ye're just protectin' yerself!!! Ye're just 'fraid of gettin' hurt! Losin' yer nerve! Ye're just scared!!”
“Once you find out whom you made the promise to, will you really be able to fall in love with her?”
“It's just... a love that's continued for many years without straying is something that, to anyone who sees it, is beautiful and impossible to fault. But... Though it may be short, and it may be something that's become crooked and bent partway through, if they're serious about the way they feel... then I don't think that's something that isn't beautiful.”
“You have no intention of reciprocating my daughter's feelings, do you? So what gives you the right to speak in that way? Perhaps you wish to appease your guilty conscience. Would you not call that "hypocrisy"?”
“I'm used to gettting clobbered by her and all. But damn. A slap on the face hurts so much more.”
“I've decided to take this unrequited love, and quietly put it away in a corner of my heart as a bittersweet page of my youth.”
“It can't be helped, if there's nothing you can do, then there's nothing else you can do.”
“To us, you are more valuable than any jewel. Would you be at ease if you left your most treasured valuable outside the bounds of your own home? A treasure is something you keep with you at all times. It is common sense.”
“My, my! Do I really need to spell it out for you? There is nothing that you can acquire without making a move on your own. It's the same with romance - your only hope is to be more aggressive.”
“There are two kinds of people in this world. Those who eat the things they hate first, and those who eat them last.”
