[00:16] ---
    Sarah, is everything ready?
[00:19] ---
    Just as you asked, miss.
[00:21] ---
    Thank you. Time to go meet my kindred.
[00:26] ---
    The same as you, miss?
[00:30] ---
    The same, yet different...
[00:33] ---
    ...as an Exception, that is.
[00:50] ---
    We lived in a closed-up past
[00:55] ---
    With an ever-distant future and time unmoving
[01:00] ---
    Finding in our battle now
    what we were searching for
[01:05] ---
    The power to believe in each other,
    beyond even destiny
[01:10] ---
    We'll get stronger,
    you and me: a pair to the end
[01:15] ---
    This light reflects a bond
    even deeper than our wounds
[01:21] ---
    I want to protect you...
    and so my soul runs out to you now
[01:30] ---
    Just hand it over to me
    (all of it)--even your pain
[01:35] ---
    We're together (together) that's why
    (that's why) we can make it our strength
[01:40] ---
    I'll be your shield, and yours alone
[01:46] ---
    My back to yours,
    I believe in miracles (in meetings)
[01:50] ---
    No one can intrude on that (can't stop it)
[01:56] ---
    Looking down on our limits
    from far above: Absolute Soul
[02:08] ---
    I'm just like you: an Avenger.
[02:15] ---
    A dream? No--that was real.
[02:15] ---
    "#4 Exception"
[02:20] ---
    Julie and me, we're both...
[02:22] ---
    Aven--
[02:26] ---
    What's this?
[02:33] ---
    Wh-Why is Julie...
[02:41] ---
    S-So soft... No! Wait!
[02:44] ---
    Tor?
[02:45] ---
    J-Julie?! I, er...
[02:47] ---
    You...
[02:51] ---
    Wait! C-C-Calm down and hear me o--
[02:58] ---
    I'm so sorry.
[03:01] ---
    I didn't expect you to be sleeping next to me,
[03:04] ---
    and when I happened to move my hand...
[03:06] ---
    Sorry.
[03:07] ---
    So if you hadn't done that,
    you wouldn't even know they were there?
[03:11] ---
    Th-That's not it! It's my overwhelming
    lack of experience with women!
[03:16] ---
    It's my first time touching a
    girl's chest, and it was just so soft...
[03:20] ---
    What am I saying?!
[03:22] ---
    Nej. It was my fault.
[03:25] ---
    Remembering the past
    yesterday made me so lonely.
[03:30] ---
    I'm sorry.
[03:31] ---
    Julie... No, I'm still
    the one in the wrong here.
[03:35] ---
    I'm so sorry!
[03:42] ---
    That's right--I forgot to tell you something.
[03:45] ---
    Good morning, Tor.
[03:49] ---
    Yeah--good morning, Julie.
[03:51] ---
    "Koryo Academy"
[03:57] ---
    Morning!
[03:58] ---
    G-Good morning, Kokonoe, Julie.
[04:05] ---
    Huh?
[04:08] ---
    What are you two doing here?
[04:11] ---
    Oh, it's you.
[04:13] ---
    Don't be letting such light
    injuries keep you in bed forever.
[04:17] ---
    But she did hurt you two pretty badly.
[04:21] ---
    Lukifers increase your body's curative power,
[04:24] ---
    but it's still best not to overdo things.
[04:26] ---
    "She"? So Tachibana knows about it, too?
[04:31] ---
    Yeah. When we didn't come back,
[04:34] ---
    she and Hotaka got
    worried and came to check on us.
[04:38] ---
    They handled first aid, too.
[04:41] ---
    Oh, yeah? Tachibana, Hotaka... thanks.
[04:48] ---
    What is it, Tor?
[04:50] ---
    Tora actually bowed to someone!
[04:53] ---
    What do you take me for, anyway?!
[04:57] ---
    S-Sorry about that!
[04:58] ---
    It's fine. Just because his name means "tiger"
[05:00] ---
    doesn't mean he bites.
[05:01] ---
    What weird picture of me
    do you have in your head?!
[05:06] ---
    I wonder why Miss Tsukimi got so violent.
[05:10] ---
    She said it was "all in a day's work."
[05:13] ---
    I'd be lying if I said I wasn't curious.
[05:16] ---
    But we probably won't
    ever see her again, so--
[05:19] ---
    Good mor-ning!
[05:20] ---
    Is everyone well-rested after the Novgladius?
[05:23] ---
    Expect another no-holds-barred class today!
[05:32] ---
    Wait!
[05:34] ---
    Oh, dear! What seems to be
    the problem? Class is about to start!
[05:42] ---
    Don't look so fierce.
[05:44] ---
    It's only morning, and you're
    getting me all fired up!
[05:47] ---
    Why are you here?
[05:51] ---
    Now, now, Kokonoe! Be more
    polite when speaking to your teachers!
[05:57] ---
    That's a little much to ask
    from someone you tried to kill!
[06:00] ---
    True enough! But let's not do this now.
[06:04] ---
    Our education-mad headmaster is here.
[06:12] ---
    What's the meaning of this?!
[06:14] ---
    We have rehired Rito Tsukimi as an instructor.
[06:19] ---
    Hang on--she tried to kill us!
[06:23] ---
    But you are alive. Even after having
    taken on someone as strong as she.
[06:30] ---
    I have assessed her skill as an educator
[06:32] ---
    in bringing her students to
    that level in such a short time.
[06:36] ---
    Ooh, yes! Very "this is Sparta"!
[06:41] ---
    But aren't you just deciding that in hindsight?
[06:45] ---
    Only having seen the
    kind of outcome I'm looking for--
[06:49] ---
    no matter the process or
    the means it took to get there.
[06:56] ---
    All in the name of reaching
    Absolute Duo--that and that alone.
[07:03] ---
    And...
[07:05] ---
    ...in the next few days, we will
    hold a Level 2 Rite of Sublimation
[07:09] ---
    for you six.
[07:12] ---
    Trying to shut us up, eh?
[07:13] ---
    It's only what you're entitled to
    for having excelled in the Novgladius.
[07:23] ---
    Earlier I told you that Lukifers have levels.
[07:27] ---
    Now for some very important details;
[07:28] ---
    No matter the process or the means... hmm.
[07:30] ---
    get those pencils ready!
[07:33] ---
    Ready? Each level gained multiplies
    your powers by two or more.
[07:38] ---
    One level is one thing, but at
    two levels higher than your opponent,
[07:42] ---
    it's pretty hopeless!
[07:43] ---
    So be careful who you pick fights with, 'kay?
[08:01] ---
    You're the Irregular--Tor Kokonoe.
[08:07] ---
    Oh! Uh, yeah, I'm Tor Kokonoe...
[08:10] ---
    Okay. Then come with me.
[08:14] ---
    Hey, I'm in the middle of class here.
[08:17] ---
    Don't make me tell you again.
[08:18] ---
    I have special permission--right, Miss Tsukimi?
[08:23] ---
    Go ahead.
[08:25] ---
    Whatever you need Tor for,
    you can take care of it here.
[08:28] ---
    This has nothing to do with you.
[08:31] ---
    I'd like to speak somewhere with less... noise.
[08:39] ---
    Fine...
[08:40] ---
    Tor?
[08:41] ---
    I'll be right back.
[08:43] ---
    Lend me your notebook later, okay?
[08:47] ---
    I'd almost forgotten:
[08:51] ---
    I'm Lilith Bristol, transfer student
    from the England campus.
[08:56] ---
    I shall permit you all
    to call me by my first name.
[09:09] ---
    Uh, thanks.
[09:15] ---
    This is really good!
[09:16] ---
    Isn't it? Sarah's tea is outstanding.
[09:21] ---
    Thank you, miss.
[09:23] ---
    Wish Julie could try it.
[09:26] ---
    Now, then...
[09:28] ---
    Tor Kokonoe, starting today,
    you shall be my Duo.
[09:33] ---
    Huh? What was that?
[09:36] ---
    Don't make me tell you again.
[09:38] ---
    Tell me--hang on a second, Lilith.
    I already have a Duo.
[09:44] ---
    I know that. But it doesn't matter.
[09:47] ---
    I am special: an Exception.
[09:52] ---
    An Exception? What's that?
[09:56] ---
    Back in England, I heard rumors of the Irregular
[10:00] ---
    and specifically transferred
    here because of you.
[10:02] ---
    You should be grateful.
[10:04] ---
    Yes, well, I'm not so sure.
[10:07] ---
    Wait--you didn't come here
    just to be in a Duo with me, did you?!
[10:12] ---
    Precisely. Like me,
    you are unique, an Unrivaled.
[10:17] ---
    Therefore, you are well suited to be my Duo.
[10:22] ---
    Now hang on a minute.
[10:24] ---
    The school rules forbid breaking up a Duo.
[10:28] ---
    So what? Those rules don't apply to me.
[10:32] ---
    I'm allowed to do what I like.
    That's an Exception.
[10:39] ---
    So what do you say?
    Not that you need to think it over.
[10:45] ---
    You're right, I don't.
[10:47] ---
    Then it's settled.
[10:49] ---
    Yeah. I don't want to partner with you,
[10:52] ---
    and I don't want to break up my current Duo.
[10:56] ---
    Thanks for the tea--it was delicious.
[11:00] ---
    Wait, Tor Kokonoe!
    Do you realize what you're saying?!
[11:05] ---
    To borrow a phrase:
[11:07] ---
    Don't make me tell you again.
[11:10] ---
    The answer is no.
[11:19] ---
    Okay, last ten laps!
[11:22] ---
    Are you nuts?! Each lap is four kilometers!
[11:24] ---
    You expect me to run a
    full marathon? You're a monster!
[11:27] ---
    I'm no monster--I'm a bunny!
[11:30] ---
    Maybe I can't do anything about Miss Priss,
[11:32] ---
    but I can sure punish you for skipping class!
[11:37] ---
    This is so unfair!
[11:43] ---
    Dammit... that nasty vorpal bunny...
[11:47] ---
    Tor?
[11:48] ---
    J-Julie?
[11:49] ---
    You forgot your bath towel.
[11:52] ---
    Oh, did I? Thanks. Just leave it there.
[11:55] ---
    Ja.
[11:58] ---
    Um... I can't get out if you're standing there.
[12:02] ---
    Oh. Right.
[12:11] ---
    You're having some, aren't you?
[12:12] ---
    Ja, please.
[12:22] ---
    Delicious again today.
[12:23] ---
    Uh, yeah...
[12:25] ---
    By the way, Tor...
[12:27] ---
    Can we sleep together tonight?
[12:30] ---
    J-Julie! That was supposed
    to be a one-time thing...
[12:39] ---
    Uh-oh... this is not good!
[12:41] ---
    Tor?
[12:42] ---
    I-I-I know! Hey, Julie, want to
    go somewhere on our next break?
[12:47] ---
    I mean, we've never left the school grounds!
[12:50] ---
    We sure could use a change of pace!
    What do you say?
[12:54] ---
    Ja. I'd like that.
[12:56] ---
    Great! Where should we go? Any requests?
[13:00] ---
    To buy some new things to wear.
    I only brought winter clothes.
[13:06] ---
    Got it. Let's do that, then.
[13:12] ---
    Yesss! Distraction: success!
[13:14] ---
    Tor?
[13:16] ---
    Let's get some sleep.
[13:20] ---
    Ja...
[13:31] ---
    Look, Tor, a flock of seagulls.
    I see a big city out that way, too.
[13:38] ---
    That's where we're headed today.
[13:40] ---
    Then I recommend the
    A La Mode shopping mall.
[13:44] ---
    Great--thanks. Hey, if you're free,
    want to come along?
[13:50] ---
    B-But I'm not emotionally
    ready to go on a date!
[13:54] ---
    We're buying clothes for Julie
    and could use another girl's opinion.
[13:58] ---
    Huh? For... Julie?
[14:03] ---
    Um, er, sorry! I've got
    plans with Tomoe that day.
[14:07] ---
    Okay. Next time, then.
[14:10] ---
    Oh... uh-huh.
[14:13] ---
    Hotaka told me all about the best spots in town.
[14:17] ---
    Ja. She's very kind.
[14:27] ---
    "Central Court" "Kids' Plaza"
[14:29] ---
    It's like a festival.
[14:31] ---
    Stay with me, now.
[14:34] ---
    Julie?
[14:34] ---
    T-Tor!
[14:38] ---
    Wait! Julie!
[14:46] ---
    Thank you very much.
[14:49] ---
    No--I should have known better.
[14:53] ---
    S-Sorry!
[14:56] ---
    Julie?
[14:58] ---
    So we don't get separated.
[15:01] ---
    Sure.
[15:12] ---
    Isn't she gorgeous?
[15:14] ---
    Just like a doll!
[15:16] ---
    They're looking at us.
[15:18] ---
    Tor, what about that store over there?
[15:22] ---
    Wow...
[15:24] ---
    Sure, want to?
[15:26] ---
    Ja.
[15:31] ---
    Let me just try this on.
[15:34] ---
    You have such a cute girlfriend!
[15:37] ---
    Uh... yeah...
[15:38] ---
    You're a lucky man! Are you two on a date?
[15:45] ---
    Oh, my!
[15:46] ---
    What do you think, Tor?
[15:50] ---
    I-It looks great on you.
[15:52] ---
    Thank you. I'll take it.
[15:56] ---
    That was fast! Don't you
    want to try on anything else?
[15:59] ---
    Good idea! We have
    lots of other charming pieces!
[16:03] ---
    Ja. All right.
[16:08] ---
    That's a good one. Really good.
[16:10] ---
    I'll take it.
[16:13] ---
    Mmm, cute!
[16:15] ---
    And this one, too.
[16:19] ---
    Looks, uh, nice and cool.
[16:21] ---
    Then I'll take it.
[16:23] ---
    And this one? What about this one?
    Just try it on--that's all I ask!
[16:26] ---
    You don't even have to buy it!
[16:28] ---
    Since when?!
[16:31] ---
    May I use this?
[16:33] ---
    Yes, we gladly accept
    Koryo Academy student cards.
[16:38] ---
    You kind of overdid it, eh?
[16:40] ---
    Nej. They're all lovely
    clothes that you said you liked.
[16:48] ---
    Your clothes'll be sent to the school,
[16:50] ---
    so since we're here, how about a little stroll?
[16:53] ---
    Ja. Let's do that.
[17:14] ---
    Here you go.
[17:16] ---
    Strawberry for you, right?
[17:19] ---
    Something wrong?
[17:20] ---
    It's nothing. Thank you.
[17:24] ---
    Oh, okay. Then let's eat.
[17:27] ---
    Hotaka recommended the gelato here.
[17:30] ---
    Then it's sure to be good.
[17:36] ---
    It's very tasty.
[17:39] ---
    Good!
[17:40] ---
    What did you get?
[17:42] ---
    Rum raisin. Want a bite?
[17:45] ---
    Ja, please.
[17:49] ---
    You're kidding.
[17:56] ---
    I can't--not in public!
[17:59] ---
    Papa and Mama always did this with me.
[18:11] ---
    Say "ahhh"...
[18:22] ---
    Delicious.
[18:24] ---
    Ah. Good.
[18:27] ---
    Now you try mine.
[18:30] ---
    Tor, say "ahhh."
[18:33] ---
    N-No, I'm fine, thanks.
[18:45] ---
    Can we be done now?
[18:49] ---
    Nja.
[18:51] ---
    "Nja"?
[18:55] ---
    Wait--could it be... the rum raisin?
[18:59] ---
    Still, there's no denying...
[19:01] ---
    J-Julie? Are you feeling feverish?
[19:04] ---
    Njej. Not feberidge at ow.
[19:07] ---
    So you are drunk!
[19:09] ---
    Yam not drrrunk.
[19:11] ---
    How many fingers am I holding up?
[19:15] ---
    I shee free of you.
[19:17] ---
    That settles it! Stay with me, Julie!
[19:20] ---
    You okay? Should I get some water?
[19:23] ---
    Th-Their faces sure are close together!
[19:26] ---
    Calm down, Miyabi! Are you sure
    they're not actually dating?
[19:32] ---
    Uh-huh. They invited me along,
    so I'm pretty sure. Still...
[19:36] ---
    I-Is that so...
[19:38] ---
    But since there's still a
    suspicion of illicit sexual activity,
[19:41] ---
    let's monitor them a little longer.
[19:46] ---
    Hey, you two here by yourselves?
    Come hang out with us!
[19:52] ---
    No, thanks. Come on, Miyabi.
[19:56] ---
    C'mon, just for a little while!
    We won't do anything weird!
[20:00] ---
    You dog!
[20:00] ---
    Ow!
[20:02] ---
    Hey, what are you doin'?
    Now you have to come with us!
[20:06] ---
    He started it!
[20:09] ---
    Say what?! Watch your mouth, bitch!
[20:11] ---
    Stand back, Miyabi.
[20:13] ---
    Tomoe...
[20:17] ---
    Hey, knock it off!
[20:19] ---
    Huh? You little brat!
[20:21] ---
    K-Kokonoe...
[20:23] ---
    And you too, Julie?
[20:25] ---
    Nja.
[20:28] ---
    They're both with me, so if you've got
    something to say, say it to me.
[20:31] ---
    Showin' off in front of these girls, huh?
[20:50] ---
    Lilith?!
[20:52] ---
    And is that...
[21:01] ---
    Did you just hear something odd?
[21:04] ---
    Hey, those guys've collapsed!
[21:14] ---
    A... a rifle Blaze...
[21:18] ---
    So that's an Exception.
[21:35] ---
    Lightly
[21:36] ---
    Quickly
[21:37] ---
    Gently
[21:38] ---
    Softly
[21:39] ---
    Pale
[21:40] ---
    White
[21:40] ---
    Our future together
[21:42] ---
    Flicker
[21:43] ---
    Bounce
[21:44] ---
    Float
[21:45] ---
    Sink
[21:46] ---
    Leap
[21:47] ---
    Align
[21:48] ---
    The rhythm of our hearts
[21:50] ---
    It started with a little chat
[21:53] ---
    Our views surprisingly the same
[21:57] ---
    It started with a clash, I suppose
[22:00] ---
    Kind of a roundabout way
[22:04] ---
    I want us to be friends
    (When we fight, I understand)
[22:08] ---
    But
    (Things I didn't see at first)
[22:10] ---
    That's too easy
[22:12] ---
    The taste of apple tea
[22:18] ---
    Lonely?
[22:20] ---
    I never thought about it much
[22:25] ---
    But I've noticed
[22:28] ---
    I'm lonely without you
[22:31] ---
    Tomorrow we'll be happy, happy
[22:35] ---
    Tomorrow, too: happy, happy
[22:39] ---
    Someday we'll be happy happy
[22:42] ---
    Every day: happy happy
[22:55] ---
    How's that one, Julie?
[22:56] ---
    Talk about timing! We just happened
    to see you picking out underwear.
