What does Rumi say/sing at the end of the OP for Tonari no Seki-Kun?


At the end of the Opening for _Tonari no Seki-Kun_ , Seki holds up a
microphone to Rumi, at which point she says to the rhythm of the music
something like "Yama tay!". No translation is presented. What did she say?

It is a cute OP. During it, Seki is developing an animation that includes both
Rumi and himself. (IMO this is essentially a very funny yet fitting meta
commentary on the series.) You see him with what is probably a character
summary of Rumi, and soon after he hands her a notebook. It has a title in
Japanese, but, again, it is not translated. [![Rumi receiving

As she puts down the notebook, you see Seki-kun holding the microphone.

Yama Tay!




This is more meta than anything.

What Seki-kun is doing is providing Rumi a script for the _Tonari no Seki-kun_
anime, handing her a mic, and expecting her to read a line. This is further
evidenced by the fact that he has what looks like key animations on his laptop
**of Rumi** , specifically where she's meant to say something.

What she says is やめて (yamete), which is Japanese for "stop it", or "knock it
off". This is _also_ a line in the song itself, and is coincidentally sung
when Seki is looking for her line.

(As an exercise to the astute watcher, keep a close eye on this reaction after
this line is said/sung. You won't be disappointed.)
