It's the day of the big festival, and the narrator is psyched to be there. He tells the girl he met on the train that it's actually not a date, but a "festa peta" . The festival is a two-day affair, and he's going to have to "protect kurihara" , which is a Japanese term for "to protect one's honor." He's also psyched that he'll have to wait in the crowd for the rest of the day to be able to use the "rest room," which is basically a private area reserved for people who don't show up on the first day. The girl is psyched that she'll get to see the "main character" of the festival, but the narrator doesn't want her to get lost, so he tells her to "go with ro-mantic comedy pro-tag onists" and not to tell the girl how she's feeling today. He also tells her that he can't tell her how he feels today because he'd have to confess later.
