**[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] ---**
