[00:20] ---
    My name is Ruiko, okay?
[00:23] ---
    What's yours?
    Can you tell me your name?
[00:31] ---
    Febrie.
[00:33] ---
    Febrie, is it? Okay, Febrie,
[00:37] ---
    anything goes, so tell us
    whatever you know, okay?
[00:44] ---
    Misaka Mikoto.
[00:45] ---
    Huh?
[00:47] ---
    Me?
[00:48] ---
    Um... is she actually
    someone you know, Misaka?
[00:52] ---
    Nobody I can remember.
[00:54] ---
    Perhaps a relative or
    a cousin or something?
[00:56] ---
    Do you happen to
    have any half-sisters?
[00:58] ---
    Now, look...
[01:00] ---
    I've got plenty of them, already.
[01:02] ---
    Ah! D-D-Do not tell me that
    she is your own daughter, Sissy!
[01:06] ---
    How could you possibly have done that?!
[01:08] ---
    Especially when you have me--
[01:10] ---
    Ee-yow...
[01:13] ---
    I'm Misaka Mikoto.
    How is it that you know my name?
[01:27] ---
    Sure enough,
    children can tell, can't they?
[01:30] ---
    Who is safe,
    and who is dangerous?
[01:32] ---
    Wha--?!
[01:36] ---
    I still have this!
[01:38] ---
    A finger puppet?
[01:39] ---
    It was the prize that
    came with a soft drink.
[01:41] ---
    I do not know how many cans
    she had to drink before she got it.
[01:45] ---
    I see you still like those things.
[01:59] ---
    Yo, I'm Gekota!
[02:03] ---
    Say, Febrie, there's something
    I want you to tell me.
[02:13] ---
    Ah! My pink Gekota!
[02:15] ---
    There's only a 1-in-24 chance
    of getting one per can!
[02:18] ---
    Geez, do not shriek so disgracefully
    over a lousy finger puppet.
[02:26] ---
    Come on, now, Febrie. You can't
    just carry it off without asking.
[02:32] ---
    My goodness.
[02:33] ---
    She sure is treating
    you like a safety zone.
[02:35] ---
    You know, that Gekota puppet
    belongs to Big Sister Mikoto.
[02:40] ---
    Let's give it back, okay?
[02:42] ---
    No! It's mine!
[02:47] ---
    Misaka?
[02:52] ---
    Hmm...
[02:54] ---
    Well, there isn't any
    relevant information on her
[02:56] ---
    under lost children or missing persons.
[02:59] ---
    There isn't, huh?
[03:00] ---
    At this hour, I can't reach
    the person in charge at Antiskill.
[03:05] ---
    This is a predicament, huh?
[03:07] ---
    Well then, I can take
    her in for tonight.
[03:11] ---
    I mean, look.
[03:14] ---
    I have a little brother, so I'm
    used to caring for small children.
[03:20] ---
    Well, I hate to impose, but would
    you mind for just one night?
[03:24] ---
    Just leave her to me!
[03:27] ---
    Then again, my place is a tight fit,
[03:30] ---
    and it might be tricky
    handling her on my own.
[03:34] ---
    What do you say, Uiharu?
    Wanna give me a hand?
[03:38] ---
    Yes!
[03:42] ---
    A shining hope runs its way
    through the city, letting friends

[03:49] ---
    who always believe in each other
    join hands and follow their hearts

[03:56] ---
    in an ongoing search for
    a future they have faith in

[04:04] ---
    Standing still amid
    the hustle and bustle,

[04:07] ---
    I watched as you faded into the distance
[04:10] ---
    Because I now realize
[04:13] ---
    the importance of sharing
[04:17] ---
    Both the day and all of
    us are wreathed in smiles

[04:23] ---
    and I want to preserve
    how normal that feels for us

[04:32] ---
    When the sky resounds
    with dreams kicking off

[04:39] ---
    unshakable power starts seizing on reality
[04:45] ---
    It's because you had the
    strength to reveal your weakness

[04:52] ---
    that I never forget, every single day,
    to cherish the bonds between us

[04:58] ---
    and head held high,
    blaze a future to be proud of

[05:20] ---
    Hey, Uiharu, ready yet?
[05:23] ---
    Yes!
[05:29] ---
    My lolly...
[05:30] ---
    Lolly?
[05:34] ---
    Yes, it's right here.
[05:39] ---
    Do you suppose
    she might be hungry?
[05:42] ---
    Hey, want to have some supper?
[05:50] ---
    Boing, boing, boing!
[05:56] ---
    Well, shall we get started, Mother?
[05:59] ---
    Yes!
[06:04] ---
    Thank you for this food!
[06:09] ---
    What's the matter?
    It's hamburger.
[06:24] ---
    Is that good?
[06:25] ---
    Mm-hmm.
[06:40] ---
    Okay, all right then,
    close your eyes nice and tight.
[06:45] ---
    Here goes!
[06:49] ---
    Okay, Febrie, now it's your turn.
    Will you spray some water on me?
[06:53] ---
    Mm-hmm!
[06:54] ---
    Whoa! Easy, now,
    or you'll fall! Be careful--gah!
[06:58] ---
    Ruiko, are you okay?
[07:00] ---
    Oh, you little tomboy, you!
    I'm gonna getcha!
[07:08] ---
    Hey, hurry on in here!
[07:11] ---
    Uiharu!
[07:12] ---
    Whee-hah!
[07:13] ---
    Okay!
[07:26] ---
    "You got to know
    when to fold 'em," Sissy.
[07:29] ---
    I-I'm fine, really. It was a free prize,
[07:32] ---
    and it's just one lousy
    finger puppet... just one...
[07:37] ---
    You do not sound at all fine.
[07:41] ---
    I just have some things on my mind.
[07:43] ---
    Like, how did she know my name?
[07:48] ---
    And why was she so afraid of me?
[07:50] ---
    My! Sissy, do not tell me you
    were trying to gain that girl's favor?!
[07:55] ---
    Is that what you are telling me, Sissy?!
[07:59] ---
    I understand!
    Having reached this juncture,
[08:02] ---
    I, Shirai Kuroko,
    will act on your behalf!
[08:09] ---
    Goo-goo...
[08:14] ---
    Hey, Shirai!
    What's all that commotion?!
[08:20] ---
    No, but really...
[08:22] ---
    ...why did that girl know my name?
[08:36] ---
    She is a bit of an unusual girl, huh?
[08:40] ---
    She's still cute, though.
[08:41] ---
    Yes.
[09:01] ---
    You're right, that is pretty intense.
[09:04] ---
    See? It's remarkable, right?
[09:08] ---
    I'm surprised she sucks
    on those like it was nothing.
[09:11] ---
    You're terrible, Miss Saten.
[09:14] ---
    Last night, you made me taste one,
    telling me it was "so delicious!"
[09:18] ---
    I said I was sorry!
[09:22] ---
    Is that good?
[09:24] ---
    Mm-hmm!
[09:25] ---
    Oh, my.
[09:26] ---
    Good for you, Febrie!
[09:38] ---
    Sure enough, there is
    no data on her anywhere.
[09:42] ---
    I put her information into the
    database that takes queries
[09:45] ---
    from missing persons
    and lost child cases, myself,
[09:48] ---
    but as of right now,
    there has been no response.
[09:51] ---
    Which would mean that
    this girl might be a Child Error.
[09:56] ---
    Oh, yeah.
[09:58] ---
    Hello!
[10:01] ---
    Miss Haru'ue!
[10:03] ---
    Everything is settled in
    from the move and whatnot,
[10:06] ---
    so I came to say hi.
[10:08] ---
    Well, well, so this is where she is.
[10:18] ---
    My goodness, what a handful she is.
[10:21] ---
    That girl is a Child Error?
[10:24] ---
    That's right.
    I've tried everything I could,
[10:28] ---
    but I can't determine who she is.
[10:30] ---
    It seems like all we can do now
[10:32] ---
    is wait for someone from
    an institution to come for her.
[10:35] ---
    I hope she gets to go to a good one.
[10:38] ---
    There are good ones and bad ones?
[10:40] ---
    I've heard that bad things can happen,
    depending on the facility.
[10:44] ---
    Is it possible to choose
    where she goes?
[10:48] ---
    Hey, Uiharu, is there anywhere
    that has rating and ranking data
[10:52] ---
    on these institutions?
[10:53] ---
    No, they don't really do that.
[10:56] ---
    Oh, then...
[10:58] ---
    I've got confirmation
    from the other end.
[11:01] ---
    It sounds like
    they're willing to accept her.
[11:03] ---
    Asunaro Park said okay!
[11:08] ---
    It's a facility in School District 13.
[11:10] ---
    We've dropped by there before,
[11:12] ---
    and it's a place with
    a very warm atmosphere.
[11:16] ---
    However, there is one issue.
[11:19] ---
    It will take at least five days
    before they're ready to accept her.
[11:22] ---
    That won't be any problem.
[11:25] ---
    I will make sure to
    look after her until then!
[11:27] ---
    And I will back her up!
[11:29] ---
    So will I, of course.
[11:31] ---
    In that case, I shall assist, as well.
[11:34] ---
    All right. I'll relay that to them.
[11:42] ---
    Say, Febrie, would you mind
    staying with us for a little while?
[11:47] ---
    With you, Ruiko?
[11:49] ---
    Yep! And everyone else, too.
[11:52] ---
    With Whee-hah, too?
[11:53] ---
    Yes.
[11:54] ---
    And Kuroko, too?
[11:56] ---
    Yeah.
[11:59] ---
    And Mii, too?
[12:01] ---
    Well of course, Febrie.
[12:06] ---
    Five days, huh?
[12:08] ---
    That means we can stay together
    until the day of the Reach Assembly.
[12:12] ---
    Oh, now that you mention it,
[12:14] ---
    it is almost time for our on-site
    security meeting, is it not?
[12:18] ---
    Be sure to come and visit again, okay?
[12:20] ---
    Sure. Next time, I'll bring Banri, too.
[12:24] ---
    Goodbye now, Febrie.
[12:27] ---
    Goodbye, Erii!
[12:29] ---
    Huh?! Even Miss Haru'ue?!
[12:39] ---
    I swear, I will get that
    girl to call me by name!
[12:41] ---
    "#19 Academic Reach Assembly"
[12:47] ---
    Is this really where they're
    holding the Reach Assembly?
[12:51] ---
    Well, it is one of the sites, to be sure.
[12:54] ---
    I have to say, it's--
    how can I put it? Kind of dreary.
[12:58] ---
    The Reach Assembly
    is unrelated to abilities,
[13:01] ---
    and is a place for presenting the
    results of pure academic research,
[13:05] ---
    so there is necessarily a lack of glitz.
[13:08] ---
    It gets a little nerdy.
[13:09] ---
    Oh, right.
[13:12] ---
    You seem unusually disappointed.
    What is it you were imagining?
[13:17] ---
    Oh, you know. Something
    with street stalls and lots of events,
[13:21] ---
    and everyone pulling an all-nighter
    getting ready, or something.
[13:25] ---
    Ah, so that's why you came along.
[13:28] ---
    If that were the case, I figured,
    she wouldn't be bored by it.
[13:32] ---
    Right?
[13:33] ---
    Right?
[13:34] ---
    Right.
[13:34] ---
    H-How cute!
[13:37] ---
    My, that wouldn't happen
    to be Miss Misaka, would it?
[13:41] ---
    Oh, you're right!
[13:43] ---
    What a coincidence.
[13:44] ---
    Huh? Why are you...?
[13:46] ---
    Kongo Mitsuko...
    What are you doing here?
[13:49] ---
    Hello there. Nice to meet you.
[13:52] ---
    My name is Awatsuki Ma'aya.
[13:52] ---
    Oh, so Miss Wannai,
[13:55] ---
    your senior is presenting
    at the Reach Assembly.
[13:57] ---
    Yes, and we are
    here to help get her set up.
[14:01] ---
    Miss Awatsuki and
    I know her personally,
[14:05] ---
    and Miss Kongo freely
    volunteered to help as well.
[14:09] ---
    There is no reason to pay any mind.
[14:12] ---
    With me along,
    we will be set up in mere moments.
[14:19] ---
    Incidentally, Miss Misaka...
[14:21] ---
    ...is that young lady someone's
    younger sister, or something?
[14:24] ---
    Oh, mm-mm. It's kind of a long story.
[14:28] ---
    Miss Kongo, this adorable young lady
    says her name is Miss Febrie.
[14:33] ---
    I have just gotten done
    making friends with her.
[14:39] ---
    In that case, by all means,
    please be friends with me, as well.
[14:43] ---
    My name is Kongo Mitsuko.
    It is a pleasure to meet you, Miss Febrie.
[14:48] ---
    Mm-hmm, my pleasure, Mitsuko.
[14:51] ---
    I now have yet another friend!
[14:54] ---
    A-And now, Miss Kongo, too...
[14:58] ---
    Well, everyone, have a pleasant day.
[15:01] ---
    Bye-bye!
[15:02] ---
    Okay, we'll be
    off to our meeting now.
[15:06] ---
    We'll just have a look around at things.
[15:08] ---
    Where is the meet-up spot again?
[15:08] ---
    And then this time, I, too...
[15:10] ---
    Let's see... Just a minute.
[15:13] ---
    I'm sure it was... This place
    is unnecessarily spread out, huh?
[15:18] ---
    Oh yeah, Uiharu,
    where would the bathroom be?
[15:20] ---
    Well, it's...
    Why don't I show you the way?
[15:23] ---
    Mm-hmm, if you don't mind.
[15:29] ---
    Ruiko...?
[15:31] ---
    It's all right. I'll be
    right back, so until then...
[15:37] ---
    ...would you wait with
    Big Sister Mikoto for me?
[15:42] ---
    I'm going to give you
    some room, so while I'm gone...
[15:49] ---
    Okay, wait there!
[15:52] ---
    Come back soon!
[15:57] ---
    Of all the...
[15:58] ---
    This campus is
    unnecessarily spread out.
[16:01] ---
    We're going to need a
    few more security personnel...
[16:03] ---
    No, I'm sure this is where
    it's supposed to be delivered.
[16:07] ---
    On paper, that may be true.
[16:08] ---
    It's just that we don't
    have any authority to receive it.
[16:12] ---
    Some kind of problem?
[16:14] ---
    Apparently, this delivery
    is here for the Reach Assembly.
[16:17] ---
    But the student who is
    supposed to accept it isn't here yet.
[16:21] ---
    This school is a regular
    prizewinner at the Reach Assembly.
[16:24] ---
    Yes, it is. Most of
    the other regular schools
[16:28] ---
    haven't shown up yet this year,
    either here or at the other sites.
[16:32] ---
    Hmm...
[16:33] ---
    Huh?
[16:36] ---
    What's the matter?
[16:38] ---
    Oh, I thought I spotted someone
    from one of those regular schools.
[16:44] ---
    I have arrived at the site.
[16:46] ---
    The package appears to
    have been safely brought in as well.
[16:49] ---
    Acknowledged.
[16:51] ---
    All right, I'll contact you
    again once I locate the target.
[16:58] ---
    Febrie, are you hungry?
[17:02] ---
    Well, you want something to drink?
[17:05] ---
    Ah, look, Febrie!
    Those flowers are awfully pretty!
[17:10] ---
    What's keeping Ruiko?
[17:12] ---
    She truly is a tough customer.
[17:14] ---
    I thought I was the sort
    that children took a liking to, too.
[17:20] ---
    Mm-mm, I am not going
    to let this discourage me.
[17:23] ---
    At this point, I don't care
    if it does get taken from me--
[17:26] ---
    ...the super-rare,
    only-1-in-every-60-cans rainbow Gekota!
[17:32] ---
    Look, Febrie!
[17:38] ---
    Don't tell me...
[17:40] ---
    Febrie!
[17:57] ---
    Whoo! Man, having a job is a real drag.
[18:05] ---
    Wow! What a cute little girl you are!
[18:11] ---
    What happened?
[18:14] ---
    Gekota...
[18:26] ---
    I'm sorry! I just took my
    eyes off of her for a second!
[18:29] ---
    It's all right.
    She couldn't have gotten too far.
[18:33] ---
    I'll look for her, too.
[18:34] ---
    Yes, please!
[18:36] ---
    Febrie!
[18:45] ---
    Miss Misaka?!
[18:50] ---
    Ruiko... Whee-hah... Kuroko...
    Mii... Where are you?
[19:00] ---
    Target located.
[19:05] ---
    There she is!
[19:13] ---
    Erii... Mitsuko...
[19:16] ---
    Febrie!
[19:45] ---
    Is that...?
[19:55] ---
    Thank goodness!
[20:11] ---
    Huh?
[20:13] ---
    Ruiko!
[20:18] ---
    Even so, I'm glad she's safe.
[20:23] ---
    No doubt about it. It's her.
[20:28] ---
    So that is what happened.
[20:30] ---
    It's a good thing
    nothing bad happened, huh?
[20:33] ---
    It was my fault for
    taking my eyes off of her.
[20:36] ---
    I really am sorry, Miss Saten.
[20:38] ---
    I should apologize, as well.
[20:41] ---
    I'm so sorry.
[20:42] ---
    But...
[20:44] ---
    Come on, Febrie, you too. You made
    Big Sister Mikoto very worried,
[20:48] ---
    so now you have to apologize.
[20:53] ---
    Febrie...
[21:03] ---
    I'm sorry...
[21:10] ---
    Thank you, Mikoto!
[21:16] ---
    Hey! Wait up, Febrie!
[21:19] ---
    No!
[21:20] ---
    Wait up, wait up!
[21:22] ---
    It looks like at some point along
    the line, they became good friends.
[21:25] ---
    I am glad that they
    are enjoying themselves.
[21:28] ---
    Which means that
    it was worth the trouble
[21:30] ---
    that I, Kongo Mitsuko, went to.
[21:32] ---
    Oh, dear, Miss Kongo,
[21:34] ---
    it is so ungraceful of you to
    take all the credit upon yourself.
[21:38] ---
    I-I really was helpful this time around!
[21:42] ---
    There you go again!
[21:43] ---
    It is the absolute truth!
[21:44] ---
    Yes, yes, I know it is!
[21:45] ---
    I swear it is true!
[21:49] ---
    There are only seven Level 5s
    here in Academy City.
[21:54] ---
    To think that in addition
    to the fourth-ranked,
[21:55] ---
    we would be able to experiment
    on the third-ranked, as well...
[21:58] ---
    There is nothing else
    we can call this but good luck.
[22:02] ---
    Well then, as always,
    let's put it to a vote.
[22:05] ---
    Those in favor of conducting
    the experiment on Railgun,
[22:08] ---
    raise your hand.
[22:11] ---
    Of course,
[22:12] ---
    I am in favor, as well.
[22:23] ---
    The world into which I'm
    stepping is too big for me

[22:30] ---
    Acting tough to camouflage my impatience
    and anxiety, I overextended myself

[22:36] ---
    My mind still up in the
    air over answers I cannot find,

[22:43] ---
    time rushes by with no time to even breathe
[22:50] ---
    If we're stifled by the daily grind,
[22:56] ---
    come on, let's take a deep breath,
[23:00] ---
    and set out for the hilltop at
    the end of the rainbow

[23:06] ---
    We'll carve out another unforgettable day
[23:11] ---
    For the fact that we met
    (I thank you)

[23:16] ---
    It surely is something precious
[23:19] ---
    Let's face forward and start walking,
    carrying forward to tomorrow

[23:25] ---
    We've shared some smiles
    (and I thank you)

[23:28] ---
    Let's take our joys and sorrows
[23:32] ---
    and share them together, over and over
[23:47] ---
    "Next episode preview"
[23:48] ---
    "Next week, Ruiko and
    Whee-hah and Kuroko and..."
[23:49] ---
    "#20 Febrie"
[23:53] ---
    Who is it that let her handle the preview?
[23:55] ---
    And what's worse, she's sucking her lollipop.
