**[00:09] PROFESSOR A**
Test results, magic Circles,
and family histories.
**[00:15] PROFESSOR A**
We've assigned classes thusly
based on these elements.
**[00:20] PROFESSOR B**
As expected, there's not a single
commoner assigned to the alpha class.
**[00:25] FERGMAN**
Of course not.
**[00:27] FERGMAN**
The alpha class exists to
nurture the chosen mages.
**[00:32] FERGMAN**
We can't afford to accept
uneducated commoners there.
**[00:37] PROFESSOR C**
Exactly.
**[00:39] PROFESSOR C**
Commoners should be happy that they
get to enroll in Hebrion Academy at all.
**[00:50] HEADMASTER**
Silence.
**[00:56] HEADMASTER**
The placement is completed,
but there has been a recommendation
**[00:59] HEADMASTER**
that a certain student
be placed in the alpha class.
**[01:02] HEADMASTER**
Isn't that right, Professor Brigitte?
**[01:09] BRIGITTE**
That's correct.
**[01:14] BRIGITTE**
Desir Herrman.
**[01:17] BRIGITTE**
I believe he should be
placed in the alpha class.
**[01:35] NEW STUDENT A**
Yes! I'm in alpha!
**[01:36] NEW STUDENT B**
Obviously.
**[01:37] NEW STUDENT B**
We're born for that.
**[01:47] DESIR/I**
*Beta, huh?*
**[01:50] DESIR/I**
*But I'm more concerned about...*
**[01:57] ROMANTICA**
No way...
**[02:14] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
Fate is always more heroic than any story
**[02:24] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
The one and only despair flaunts
a completely different sky
**[02:31] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
A stolen smile
**[02:33] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
Put a period on the nights
of lament and depression
**[02:43] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
When the season comes around
for the second time, gear yourself up
**[02:47] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
For the final challenge
**[02:52] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
Why don't we struggle, cry, and bloom away?
**[02:55] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
I have a future, a future I want to
go back to no matter what it takes
**[03:01] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
Here we go and embrace
the next life, nice to meet you
**[03:05] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
There's a world, a world
I want to repaint with you
**[03:12] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
Let's go see the end together
**[03:14] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
The ending credits signal the beginning
**[03:17] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
A special story drawn by light and shadow
**[03:22] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
Ge ge ge ge ge get back
**[03:24] [SONG] OP LYRICS**
To my own story

***SIGN*** Episode 3
**[03:46] ROMANTICA/I**
*Run-down classrooms.*
**[03:51] ROMANTICA/I**
*Musty interiors.*
**[03:55] ROMANTICA/I**
*When, exactly, was this place built?*
**[03:58] ROMANTICA/I**
*Jeez...*
**[04:00] BETA CLASS TEACHER**
Uh, the skills of mages
are ranked in Circles.
**[04:06] BETA CLASS TEACHER**
The lowest Circle is one,
the highest Circle is seven.
**[04:11] BETA CLASS TEACHER**
In the entrance exam,
they place weight on your Circle.
**[04:15] BETA CLASS TEACHER**
To be in the alpha class,
you need to be at least Circle 2.
**[04:21] BETA CLASS TEACHER**
All of you here are...
**[04:24] BETA CLASS TEACHER**
Circle 1.
**[04:26] ROMANTICA/I**
*I'm Circle 2!*
**[04:28] BETA CLASS TEACHER**
Your skills probably won't be good
enough for real Shadow Worlds,
**[04:33] BETA CLASS TEACHER**
but best of luck to you.
**[04:37] ROMANTICA/I**
*What are you laughing about?!*
**[04:42] ROMANTICA/I**
* Did I not get chosen for the*
* alpha class... because of that?*
**[04:50] ROMANTICA/I**
*Being in beta is bad enough...*
**[04:54] ROMANTICA/I**
* But why do I have to be*
* in the same class as him?*
**[04:58] ROMANTICA/I**
*Not to mention sitting next to him?!*
**[05:00] ROMANTICA/I**
*He beat the magic knight, didn't he?*
**[05:03] ROMANTICA/I**
*So why is he here?*
**[05:06] ROMANTICA/I**
*Jeez, I don't get it!*
**[05:11] ROMANTICA/I**
*What are you smiling about?!*
**[05:15] BETA CLASS TEACHER**
Wh-Wh-Wh-What's the matter?!
**[05:17] BETA CLASS TEACHER**
Is something wrong?!
**[05:19] ROMANTICA**
It's nothing!
**[05:27] DESIR/I**
*Beta class, huh?*
**[05:34] BRIGITTE**
It's been a while, Desir Herrman.
**[05:38] DESIR**
Thank you for all you did at the
orphanage, Professor Brigitte.
**[05:42] BRIGITTE**
I'm happy you remember me,
**[05:45] BRIGITTE**
and that you grew up to be an excellent mage.
**[05:52] BRIGITTE**
No one even imagined
you could beat Azest.
**[05:58] BRIGITTE**
I wish I could have placed
you in the alpha class...
**[06:02] BRIGITTE**
but the professors, as nobles,
strongly opposed the idea.
**[06:06] BRIGITTE**
I'm sorry.
**[06:09] DESIR/I**
* They set up a wall between*
* nobility and commoners.*
**[06:12] DESIR/I**
*But... their obsession with status means...*
**[06:16] DESIR/I**
*It's not just me.*
**[06:18] DESIR/I**
*There are many diamonds in the rough here.*
**[06:25] DESIR/I**
*I must awaken as many talents as possible.*
**[06:29] DESIR/I**
*No matter what it takes.*
**[06:47] ROMANTICA**
I can't believe I'm in beta.
**[06:51] DONETA**
Excuse me.
**[06:52] DONETA**
Are you the daughter of Baron Eru,
Ms. Romantica Eru?
**[06:57] ROMANTICA**
I am.
**[06:59] ROMANTICA**
Who are you?
**[07:00] DONETA**
I'm Doneta Hadoon.
**[07:03] DONETA**
I'm a new student like yourself,
though I'm in the alpha class.
**[07:07] ROMANTICA**
Oh.
**[07:09] DONETA**
I'm actually looking for party members.
**[07:13] ROMANTICA**
I hope you find good ones.
**[07:16] DONETA**
That's why I came here.
**[07:18] DONETA**
I'm going to be joining Blue Moon.
**[07:23] ROMANTICA**
Blue Moon? You mean...
**[07:25] DONETA**
The best party in this academy, made up
of the top students of the alpha class.
**[07:30] DONETA**
I came to invite you, since you have
excellent skills and a perfect lineage,
**[07:35] DONETA**
Romantica.
**[07:39] ROMANTICA/I**
* If I join, I might be promoted*
* to the alpha class.*
**[07:42] ROMANTICA/I**
*Then my answer is clear.*
**[07:46] ROMANTICA/I**
*But...*
**[07:52] DONETA**
However...
**[07:54] DONETA**
in exchange for recommending
you for the party...
**[07:58] DONETA**
I want you to go out with me.
**[08:00] ROMANTICA**
Huh?
**[08:04] ROMANTICA**
What?! Wait...
**[08:06] ROMANTICA**
Wh-What are you talking—
**[08:09] DONETA**
I'm serious.
**[08:10] ROMANTICA**
But, but, but, but... we've only met today!
**[08:13] DONETA**
I saw you at the entrance ceremony.
**[08:15] DONETA**
It's love at first sight.
**[08:18] DONETA**
It's unthinkable that
a brilliant noble like you
**[08:20] DONETA**
should be lumped into the beta class
with filthy commoners.
**[08:26] DONETA**
I want you to come with me.
**[08:30] ROMANTICA**
C-Can you give me some time to think?
**[08:37] DONETA**
Of course.
**[08:39] DONETA**
Oh, right.
**[08:41] DONETA**
This is for you.
**[08:44] DONETA**
It's a kemuvin.
**[08:46] DONETA**
In my hometown, it's customary to gift
this to someone you're in love with.
**[08:57] DONETA**
Open it.
**[09:02] ROMANTICA**
What?
**[09:04] ROMANTICA**
I-I couldn't take this...
**[09:08] DONETA**
It's proof of my sincerity.
**[09:10] DONETA**
Please take it.
**[09:15] DONETA**
I hope to hear a favorable answer.
**[09:26] DESIR**
Not too shabby.
**[09:35] DESIR**
Nice reaction.
**[09:37] ROMANTICA**
Don't ambush me like that!
**[09:39] DESIR**
Can you stand?
**[09:40] ROMANTICA**
Of course I can!
**[09:45] ROMANTICA**
So, what do you want?
**[09:47] DESIR**
I have the same proposal for you that he did.
**[09:50] ROMANTICA**
Bleh!
**[09:51] ROMANTICA**
Who would go out with *you*?!
**[09:53] ROMANTICA**
There's no way.
**[09:54] DESIR**
Not that proposal.
**[09:56] DESIR**
Would you like to join my party?
**[09:58] ROMANTICA**
That's even worse!
**[10:00] ROMANTICA**
The best party in the academy,
where success is guaranteed,
**[10:04] ROMANTICA**
against a party created by
a new student in the beta class?
**[10:07] ROMANTICA**
Which do you think I'd choose?
**[10:10] DESIR/I**
*That was the biggest mistake you made.*
**[10:14] ROMANTICA**
If I've made myself clear, then get lost!
**[10:17] ROMANTICA**
I don't have any business with you!
**[10:19] DESIR**
I guess I have no choice.
**[10:21] DESIR**
Here you go.
**[10:25] ROMANTICA**
What's that?
**[10:26] DESIR**
Read it when no one's around.
**[10:34] ROMANTICA**
What, it's for me?
**[10:36] ROMANTICA**
What kind of embarrassing
things did you write?
**[10:39] ROMANTICA**
My goodness...
**[10:40] DESIR**
I recommend you get rid
of it after you read it.
**[10:44] DESIR**
It's for your sake.
**[10:46] ROMANTICA**
Huh?
**[10:49] DESIR**
You can give me your answer later.
**[10:55] ROMANTICA**
What the...?
**[11:09] ROMANTICA**
How did he...?
**[11:15] DESIR**
Will she get mad, or will she cry?
**[11:19] DESIR**
Well, I bet she'll get mad.
**[11:37] DESIR**
I found you.
**[11:58] DESIR/I**
*Pram Schnaizer.*
**[12:00] DESIR/I**
* Among the warriors who participated in*
* that battle before my return here,*
**[12:04] DESIR/I**
*he was one of the fastest swordsmen.*
**[12:07] DESIR/I**
* He was that strong in a timeline*
* where he barely had any training.*
**[12:12] DESIR/I**
*This time, he can be much stronger.*
**[12:15] ROMANTICA**
Found you!
**[12:24] ROMANTICA**
Where the hell did you learn about—
**[12:25] DESIR**
Hush. The practice is starting.
**[12:27] ROMANTICA**
The practice?
**[12:37] ROMANTICA**
Wh-Wh-Wh-What is that life form?!
**[12:40] ROMANTICA**
Too adorable!
**[12:42] DESIR**
I guess Pram is kind of cute.
**[12:44] ROMANTICA**
Kind of?!
**[12:46] ROMANTICA**
That's pure cuteness!
**[12:48] ROMANTICA**
A cutie like that exists here?
**[12:49] ROMANTICA**
Is this paradise? Was it paradise all along?
**[12:55] PRAM**
Achoo!
**[12:57] ROMANTICA**
I can't! I wanna keep him!
**[12:58] ROMANTICA**
What do I do?!
**[13:18] DESIR**
A great sword? Why...
**[13:21] ROMANTICA**
Can he really wield such a large weapon?
**[13:30] PRAM**
I'm Pram Schnaizer, from the beta class.
**[13:34] PERCIVAL**
I don't need to announce
my name for a mere beta.
**[13:38] PERCIVAL**
Get us started already.
**[13:39] REFEREE**
O-Oh, okay.
**[13:42] REFEREE**
Ready...
**[13:45] REFEREE**
begin!
**[13:56] PERCIVAL**
Damn!
**[14:00] PERCIVAL**
You bastard...!
**[14:07] ROMANTICA**
He's actually pretty strong!
**[14:09] DESIR**
No.
**[14:11] DESIR/I**
*He's just swinging it around blindly.*
**[14:14] DESIR/I**
*Why is he using a great sword?*
**[14:23] DESIR/I**
*The attacks are coming non-stop.*
**[14:25] DESIR/I**
*But, knowing Pram, he'll...*
**[14:31] DESIR**
Hold it!
**[14:52] PRAM**
I yield.
**[14:55] REFEREE**
Match over!
**[14:56] REFEREE**
Percival wins!
**[15:00] ROMANTICA**
He did his best, but he lost anyway.
**[15:03] ROMANTICA**
But why did he choose a great sword?
**[15:06] ROMANTICA**
It didn't work for him, right?
**[15:08] DESIR**
Right...
**[15:17] DESIR**
Don't!
**[15:35] DESIR**
The match is over!
**[15:38] PERCIVAL**
Shut up.
**[15:39] PERCIVAL**
Do you want to end up like him?
**[15:42] DESIR**
His blow landed that hard, did it?
**[15:45] DESIR**
Or are you jealous of someone
who's more talented than you?
**[15:51] PERCIVAL**
Shut up!
**[16:05] PERCIVAL**
You... blocked it?!
**[16:08] DESIR**
You won the match.
**[16:11] DESIR**
What more do you want?
**[16:19] PERCIVAL**
I'm going to remember your face!
**[16:35] PRAM**
A-Are you okay?
**[16:37] DESIR**
Yeah, I used magic to block it.
**[16:40] DESIR**
It didn't do much damage.
**[16:42] ROMANTICA**
Just like at the entrance exam,
you are really reckless!
**[16:47] PRAM**
I'm done!
**[16:54] PRAM**
I'm so sorry.
**[16:57] PRAM**
Your right arm... it'll inconvenience
you for a while, I'm sure.
**[17:00] DESIR**
I chose to get involved.
**[17:02] DESIR**
You don't need to blame yourself.
**[17:04] PRAM**
But because of me, you made an enemy
of someone from the alpha class...
**[17:10] ROMANTICA**
How are you so cute when you're crying?!
**[17:13] DESIR**
Romantica, restrain yourself.
**[17:16] DESIR**
I'm really all right.
**[17:20] PRAM**
Oh! I haven't introduced myself.
**[17:24] PRAM**
I'm Pram Schnaizer.
**[17:27] DESIR**
I'm D—
**[17:27] ROMANTICA**
I'm Romantica Eru!
**[17:30] PRAM**
Right...
**[17:32] DESIR**
I'm Desir Herrman.
**[17:34] DESIR**
Nice to meet you, Mr. Schnaizer.
**[17:38] PRAM**
If you don't mind, I'd love it
if you'd use my first name...
**[17:40] ROMANTICA**
Pram.
**[17:42] PRAM**
Right...
**[17:45] DESIR**
Okay, then... Mr. Pram.
**[17:48] PRAM**
Please don't be so formal!
**[17:50] DESIR**
O-Okay... Pram.
**[17:55] DESIR/I**
*Pram, Pram, Pram, Pram...*
**[18:02] DESIR/I**
*Why is he blushing?*
**[18:05] DESIR/I**
*But he looks happy, so whatever.*
**[18:10] PRAM**
I can't thank you enough, Desir!
**[18:14] PRAM**
I will never forget your kindness.
**[18:18] PRAM**
If there's anything I can do,
please feel free to tell me!
**[18:22] DESIR**
Yes, I'll be sure to take you up on that.
**[18:25] PRAM**
Of course!
**[18:26] PRAM**
Goodbye!
**[18:33] ROMANTICA**
My gosh, that was so cute!
**[18:36] DESIR**
So, Romantica.
**[18:39] DESIR**
You wanted to talk to me?
**[18:45] DESIR**
Shall we go somewhere else?
**[18:53] ROMANTICA**
You didn't tell anyone about this, did you?!
**[18:56] DESIR**
Of course not.
**[18:58] DESIR**
But the professors here are aware of it.
**[19:01] DESIR**
That's why you were
dropped to the beta class,
**[19:04] DESIR**
even though you're a noble
with amazing magic skills.
**[19:08] DESIR**
In Prillecha Kingdom, which lies several
hundred kilometers away from here,
**[19:13] DESIR**
there lived a merchant who
made a fortune through trading.
**[19:17] DESIR**
The commoner merchant bought
a title from a poor noble
**[19:22] DESIR**
and obtained the surname of Eru.
**[19:24] DESIR**
This was when you were about four years old.
**[19:27] DESIR**
Romantica Eru.
**[19:30] DESIR**
"Even if you buy a noble title,
you can't change your commoner blood."
**[19:34] DESIR**
That's what the professors here think.
**[19:37] DESIR**
That's why you were placed in the beta class.
**[19:39] ROMANTICA**
I know that!
**[19:41] DESIR**
You should decline that offer.
**[19:44] DESIR**
The Blue Moon party is only open to nobles.
**[19:46] ROMANTICA**
I'm sure Doneta will protect me!
**[19:49] DESIR**
Remember what he said about commoners?
**[19:53] (Flashback) DONETA**
Filthy commoners...
**[19:56] DESIR**
I'm sure you can imagine what would
happen if Doneta found out about this.
**[20:02] DESIR**
Would you like to join my party?
**[20:04] DESIR**
If you don't...
**[20:06] ROMANTICA**
If I don't, you'll tell everyone
that I'm a commoner?
**[20:09] ROMANTICA**
Give me a break!
**[20:11] ROMANTICA**
You'll never succeed with a party
you blackmail people into joining!
**[20:14] DESIR**
No, I would never do that.
**[20:17] ROMANTICA**
Then what *will* you do?
**[20:19] DESIR**
If you turn me down, I guess
I'll have to start it with Pram alone.
**[20:25] ROMANTICA**
Alone with... Pram?!
**[20:29] PRAM**
Desir!
**[20:32] PRAM**
Desir...
**[20:35] PRAM**
Desir...
**[20:42] ROMANTICA**
That's not fair!
**[20:44] DESIR**
What's not fair?
**[20:46] ROMANTICA**
Honestly, I find you super sketchy!
**[20:52] ROMANTICA**
You keep smiling at me for no reason!
**[20:54] ROMANTICA**
You know so much about my family!
**[20:56] ROMANTICA**
You acted recklessly at the entrance exam!
**[20:58] ROMANTICA**
And you beat a magic knight!
**[21:00] ROMANTICA**
More importantly, what's up
with that inversing spell?!
**[21:03] ROMANTICA**
How can you do that when
you're at the lower Circle?!
**[21:07] DESIR**
So, what do you say?
**[21:17] ROMANTICA**
Fine! I'll join your party.
**[21:21] ROMANTICA**
And I'm gonna uncover your secret,
so just you wait.
**[21:27] DESIR**
Okay...
**[21:29] DESIR**
Nice to work with you, Romantica.
**[21:36] ROMANTICA**
That smile of yours really pisses me off.
**[21:39] DESIR**
I know.
