### Counterpart

Namaiki Honey -another story-

**"Namaiki Honey"** is the 35th PV in the *Confession Executive Committee* song series. Returning focus to Ken Shibasaki and Arisa Takamizawa after their respective character songs, this song acts as their sequel.
The full song was originally released at Comic Market 94 on the single *Namaiki Honey/Renai Joujyuu* as the A track.

The song was later properly covered by Ken's second seiyuu, Takuya Eguchi, for the third compilation album *Suki Sugite Yabai. ~Kokuhaku Jikkou Iinkai Character Song Collection~*.

## Synopsis

While Arisa previously was hurt by what she perceived as Ken deceiving her in the previous song, she has finally worked up the nerve to begin a proper relationship with him. However, she insists that she wants to take it slow and start off as friends. Ken, happy that she wants to bond with him at all, agrees. For the rest of the song, Ken pines over her, admitting he loves her prickly and hard-to-get sides and treasuring every moment they have together. He still keeps in contact with her through LINE, and his giddiness over talking to her every night ends up freaking his younger brother out. Ken and Arisa have a small get-together one day in the park, which evolves into a date.
In the PV, the scene where Arisa stands on the steps to her shrine overlooking Ken deliberately mirrors the end of "Ijiwaru na Deai", but with the situations reversed. In "Ijiwaru", Ken is on the stairs looking down at Arisa and gives his confession; she says nothing and walks right past him, implicitly rejecting his advances. In this song, Arisa is the one giving the confession this time around and Ken is the one who doesn't respond, but when Ken goes up to meet her he embraces her and accepts her feelings.

真面目な恋の物語

本気のゲームじゃない好き

イジワルな出会いは二人の心を揺らした

ツンとして釣られないトゲトゲなお嬢さん

不器用な性格 たまらなく守りたい

「好きか嫌いかって聞かれたら、多分好き・・・」

君の精一杯の声

脈ありで舞い上がる

「でも友達からね初めてだから・・・」

同じなんだ実は

この<気持ちは初めて

今日からの恋は特別

本気のゲームじゃない好き

焦らずにいきましょう

ゆっくり時間をかけて

Ah 君がいたから 変われたんだよ

イェイ!

「もし自信持ってたら告白は私から」

君らしさが可愛い

"待ってるよいつまでも"

「目移りするくせに」

空見上げ目をそらす

生意気なその口に愛してるといわせてやる

眠る前のLINE日になる

アルバムは増えてく

宝物になってく

毎日君に恋してる

本気の諦めない好き

僕だけが知ってる

可愛いもの好きなこと

Ah 君がいるから笑えるんだよ

人目が気になるからって待ち合わせになる

僕は君を自慢したいんだよ

イジワルな言葉か僕の心揺らす

階段の上から一言「好きすぎてやばい」

二人ほら特別

本気のゲームじゃない好き

焦らずにいきましょう

ゆっくり時間をかけて

Ah 君は自慢の生意気ハニー

イェイ!

This is the story of an earnest love-

Real love, not a game

The ill-tempered meeting shook the couple's hearts

A cold, hard-to-get, prickly girl

I can't help but want to protect that awkward personality

"If I had to say whether I liked or hated you,

I'd probably say I liked you."

Your voice, working its hardest,

makes my heart soar.

"But as friends, okay?! It's my first time and all..."

But the truth is, I'm the same.

I've never felt like this before

From not on, our love is special

A real love- not a game

We're in no rush, let's take our time

Ah, because you were there with me

I was able to change

"When I have more confidence, the confession will come from me!"

The way you are is so cute, I'll wait forever

"Even though you're a distraction..."

you say, but you're looking away and up at the sky

with that brazen mouth of yours

I'm going to make you say "I love you"

I'm on LINE every day now

Just before I fall asleep, my album fills up

It's become a treasure

I fall in love with you every day

A real love I won't give up on

Only I know how cute you are, the things I love about you

Ah, because you're here,

I can smile

Interested in people noticing

A rendezvous was arranged

I want to show you off

Your ill-tempered words shook my heart

Coming from the top of the stairs, I heard

"I like you so much, it's scary!"

Us two are special

It's real love, not a game

We're in no rush

Let's take our time

Ah, you are my prideful, brazen honey
