Here is Oshima Yuko’s ending confession video, with English subs, from the video game AKB 1/149 Renai Sousenkyo (Love Election).
The most interesting part of this dialogue is Yuko’s reference to Hikoboshi and Orihime, which are the names of two characters from the folktale that inspires Japan’s Tanabata Festival. The tale is centered around two lovers (Hikoboshi and Orihime) who are only allowed to meet once a year, on the 7th day of the 7th month of the lunar calendar (which is when the festival takes place). More details on the wikipedia page.
In the line in which she mentions Hikoboshi and Orihime, Yuko uses the grammatical construct 〜しかない, which I mentioned while covering Watanabe Miyuki’s confession. You can read more about it in that post
Full transcript is as follows:
