[00:09] A
    Lisa...
[02:00] Popo Magnet
    What do you think?
SIGN    It's such a gentle melody.
SIGN    It just melts into my body.
SIGN    I really like it.
[02:10] Purple
    It's a little different from
    usual, but I like this, too.
SIGN    Yeah.
[02:16] Beige
    I approve.
[02:18] Popo Magnet
    I've been meaning to
    share this idea with you.
[02:22] Popo Magnet
    Why don't you three try
    writing the lyrics this time?
SIGN    Us?
[02:30] Purple
    We've never written lyrics before, though.
[02:35] Beige
    It sounds fun, but I don't
    know if we can do a good job.
[02:40] Popo Magnet
    You don't have to overthink it.
[02:42] Popo Magnet
    Just write honestly about what you feel.
[02:46] Popo Magnet
    Of course, if you get
    stuck, I can help you out.
[02:50] Popo Magnet
    Well?
[02:52] Popo Magnet
    Want to give it a try?
[02:53] Purple
    F-Fine.
[02:55] Purple
    Why don't we show you what we can do, then?
[03:19] Purple
    I can't!
[03:21] Purple
    I don't know what to write.
[03:25] Purple
    Jun, how're you doing?
[03:28] Purple
    Hey, you've got tons.
SIGN    Don't look!
[03:31] Purple
    Why not?
[03:33] Purple
    We're going to come up with lyrics together.
[03:35] Purple
    Show me what you've got.
SIGN    I know, but...
SIGN    I can't!
[03:45] Beige
    I'm done.
[03:47] Beige
    Roll, roll, roll...
[03:50] Beige
    Here.
SIGN    I love croquettes
    I want croquettes
    Hot and fluffy croquettes
    I want to nom nom
[03:54] Purple
    "I love croquettes.
[03:57] Purple
    I want croquettes
[03:59] Purple
    Hot and fluffy croquettes
[04:00] Purple
    I want to nom nom."
[04:02] Purple
    What the heck is this?
[04:04] Beige
    I honestly wrote about what I feel.
[04:08] Purple
    Well, yeah, you were
    saying that today, but...
[04:13] Purple
    Isn't there anything else?
[04:15] Beige
    Croquettes are my life.
[04:18] Purple
    Come on...
SIGN    Write honestly about what I feel...
[04:23] Curles
    Huh...
[04:25] Curles
    The promotional video worked that well, huh?
[04:27] Popo Magnet
    Yeah.
[04:28] Popo Magnet
    I got quite a few inquiries from
    the link I put in the video.
[04:32] Popo Magnet
    They said they'd come to see any concerts.
[04:35] Curles
    That's amazing.
[04:37] Popo Magnet
    I don't know how many
    people will actually come,
[04:41] Popo Magnet
    but I feel like we've taken a step forward.
[04:43] Popo Magnet
    The rehearsals for the new
    song are coming along, too.
[04:46] Popo Magnet
    Their chemistry is becoming even better, too.
[04:50] Popo Magnet
    I think it might be safe to pick
    a date for the next concert now.
[04:53] Popo Magnet
    Oh, but first, we need
    lyrics for the new song.
[04:56] Curles
    Oh, yeah, the girls are
    having a hard time with that.
[05:01] Popo Magnet
    They don't need to overthink it.
[05:03] Popo Magnet
    I just need them to put into
    words what they're thinking.
[05:07] Curles
    That's pretty hard, though.
[05:11] Curles
    Especially for us.
[05:18] (Flashback) Popo Magnet
    "Just keep setting foot
    again until you can't.
[05:22] (Flashback) Popo Magnet
    Even though I fear loss whenever
    every time I meet someone,
[05:25] (Flashback) Popo Magnet
    I want to live the best I can,
    color life with emotion,
[05:29] (Flashback) Popo Magnet
    and howl at the beauty of the world."
[05:34] (Flashback) Instructomatic
    That's well-written.
[05:36] (Flashback) Instructomatic
    Nukui, you might have talent.
[05:43] Curles
    I kind of admire people who can do that.
[06:00] Mustard
    Yes?
[06:01] Popo Magnet
    It's me, Kyo.
[06:03] Mustard
    Oh, come in.
[06:04] Mustard
    Can you come to the house?
[06:08] Popo Magnet
    Thanks for having me.
[06:16] Mustard
    This is who I was talking
    about earlier, Nukui Kyo-kun.
[06:20] Mustard
    Have a seat.
[06:22] Mustard
    We have some complicated business.
[06:31] Alice
    My name is Alice Stevenson.
[06:33] Alice
    This is my cousin, Ryan Brunell.
[06:37] Alice
    Ryan doesn't speak Japanese,
    so he employed an interpreter.
[06:44] Alice
    You look like you want to say,
[06:46] Alice
    "You're more like a
    marchioness than an Alice."
[06:48] Popo Magnet
    No, not at all.
[06:50] Mustard
    Could you please explain
    the situation to Kyo?
[06:56] Alice
    I'll get straight to business,
    since I'll be repeating myself.
[07:01] Alice
    Ryan has a daughter.
[07:04] Alice
    Her name is Lisa.
[07:06] Alice
    One day, she eloped with a Japanese man.
[07:12] Alice
    The only contact we get from her is the
    photos she takes with her young daughter
[07:18] Alice
    once a year, at Christmas.
[07:21] Alice
    Ryan was opposed to their marriage
    at first, but he's cooled down now.
[07:27] Alice
    He may not meet them anymore,
[07:29] Alice
    but he's content knowing that
    she's out there living happily.
[07:32] Alice
    Or so he thought.
[07:34] Alice
    But a few years ago, the yearly
    photos stopped coming in.
[07:40] Alice
    He thought something might
    have happened to her,
[07:43] Alice
    so he did everything he
    could to try to find out.
[07:46] Alice
    But we still don't know where she is.
[07:48] Alice
    He was about to give up, when...
[07:51] Popo Magnet
    Let me guess, the promotional
    video I uploaded?
[07:54] Alice
    Right.
[07:55] Alice
    That was a useful lead.
[07:57] Alice
    And we finally found Lisa's orphaned child.
[08:02] Mustard
    Nozomi's father passed away
    soon after she was born.
[08:07] Mustard
    Her mother had been
    raising her all by herself,
[08:11] Mustard
    until she was taken by an illness.
[08:13] Mustard
    And so here she is now.
[08:15] Popo Magnet
    I think I understand the situation.
[08:19] Alice
    Let's get to the main
    order of business, then.
[08:23] Alice
    Ryan would like to adopt Nozomi-san.
[08:27] Alice
    Of course, Nozomi-san,
    that's only if you desire it.
[08:33] Alice
    Ryan regrets deeply that he never approved
    your mother and father marrying.
[08:41] Alice
    So much so that he even feels frustrated
    by his inability to express that himself,
[08:45] Alice
    due to the language barrier.
[08:48] Alice
    We would like you to come
    live with us in the UK,
[08:52] Alice
    where we can provide for all your needs.
[08:57] Alice
    It's the least we can do.
[09:12] Purple
    Master!
[09:13] Purple
    Sakura!
[09:14] Purple
    Jun! Sora!
[09:15] Purple
    Why aren't you saying anything?
[09:17] Purple
    Tell me what you guys think.
[09:20] Purple
    Tell these people!
[09:22] Mustard
    Nozomi, sorry,
[09:24] Mustard
    but you're going to have to think about
    this carefully and decide for yourself.
[09:30] Mustard
    Your future hinges on this. This is important.
[09:43] Purple
    You all suck!
SIGN    Zomi!
[09:48] Beige
    Zomi-tan!
[09:49] Alice
    Well, what about you?
[09:51] Popo Magnet
    Right.
[09:53] ---
    Oh, you sit down.
SIGN    Zomi!
[09:57] Beige
    Zomi-tan!
[10:15] Popo Magnet
    There you are.
[10:26] Purple
    Hey, Kyo, I wonder if anyone
    will think anything if I'm gone.
[10:32] Popo Magnet
    Of course they would.
[10:33] Purple
    Then why...
[10:35] Popo Magnet
    That's because we want you to be happy.
[10:39] Purple
    I'm happy!
[10:41] Purple
    I'm already happy!
[10:43] Popo Magnet
    Yeah.
[10:44] Popo Magnet
    But no one wants to hide that there
    are different ways to find happiness.
[10:49] Popo Magnet
    I think we all want you to compare
    the two and decide for yourself.
[10:54] Purple
    What?
[10:55] Purple
    Who's side are you on, Kyo?
[11:00] Popo Magnet
    On everyone's.
[11:03] Popo Magnet
    Including yours.
[11:04] Popo Magnet
    I'm on everyone's side.
[11:16] Curles
    Nozomi remembers her mom, unlike me.
[11:25] Beige
    I wonder if Zomi-tan is going to the UK.
SIGN    Zomi cried every day when she first came here.
SIGN    She said she misses her mom in heaven.
SIGN    So if she can live with her family...
[12:01] Purple
    All right.
[12:05] Purple
    I'm...
[12:08] Purple
    going to go to the UK.
SIGN    Invitation
    Dear Nukui Kyo-sama,
    I'm really glad I got to meet you.
    Thank you for putting up with our demands.
[12:20] Popo Magnet
    Tomorrow, huh?
[12:26] (Flashback) Purple
    Ryan-san was so happy when
    I said I'd go to the UK.
[12:31] (Flashback) Purple
    So next Sunday,
[12:33] (Flashback) Purple
    he's rounding up all his work acquaintances
    in Japan to hold a party to introduce me.
[12:39] (Flashback) Purple
    This is your invitation to that.
[12:46] Bath Trap
    Onii-chan, are you here?
[12:51] Bath Trap
    I heard at school today that
    Nozomi's going to the UK.
[12:57] Popo Magnet
    Apparently she is.
[12:58] Bath Trap
    Are you okay with that?
[13:01] Popo Magnet
    It doesn't matter.
[13:03] Popo Magnet
    It's what Nozomi decided.
[13:05] Bath Trap
    But what about Jun and Sora?
[13:08] Popo Magnet
    That's for Jun and Sora to decide.
[13:11] Popo Magnet
    It's not for me to decide.
[13:16] Popo Magnet
    Kurumi,
[13:18] Popo Magnet
    want to go the amusement park tomorrow?
[13:28] Bath Trap
    Onii-chan!
[13:30] Bath Trap
    Hurry up!
[14:04] Popo Magnet
    What should we ride next?
[14:08] Bath Trap
    That.
[14:14] Bath Trap
    You look stupid.
[14:16] Bath Trap
    You're hiding your feelings.
[14:19] Bath Trap
    You're even using me to pretend you aren't.
[14:22] Bath Trap
    You don't want her to go
    to the UK either, do you?
[14:27] Popo Magnet
    Well, yeah.
[14:29] Bath Trap
    Then why don't you tell her?
[14:32] Bath Trap
    That she can keep living with her friends.
[14:34] Bath Trap
    Wouldn't you be happier that way?
[14:37] Popo Magnet
    It's not how I feel that's important, though.
[14:42] Popo Magnet
    I don't want Nozomi to be
    confused about her own answer.
[14:47] Bath Trap
    You say that, but you're just afraid.
[14:50] Bath Trap
    You're just chickening out
    because you don't want to be
[14:54] Bath Trap
    the one to ruin the mood and hurt her.
[14:56] Bath Trap
    I'm telling you, you look stupid!
[15:13] Bath Trap
    What if Nozomi's the same way?
[15:15] Bath Trap
    What if Jun and Sora are too caught up
    worrying about how everyone else is feeling,
[15:21] Bath Trap
    and they can't say what they're
    thinking, when somewhere deep inside,
[15:25] Bath Trap
    they don't give a damn about the mood
    or about what anyone else is thinking?
[15:31] Popo Magnet
    You might be right.
[15:33] Popo Magnet
    But that would be selfish.
[15:37] Bath Trap
    Who cares if it's selfish?
[15:39] Bath Trap
    I'm sure being selfish can
    bring people happiness.
[15:46] Popo Magnet
    I don't know if I can make that happen.
[15:50] Bath Trap
    I don't know.
[15:51] Bath Trap
    But no matter what the outcome is,
    you'll look cool doing it, Onii-chan.
[16:12] Popo Magnet
    Sorry I'm late.
[16:22] Purple
    It's okay.
[16:23] Purple
    Thanks for everything, Kyo.
[16:27] Purple
    I'm really grateful for your—
[16:28] Popo Magnet
    Let's not.
[16:31] Popo Magnet
    Let's not have you go to the UK.
[16:34] Popo Magnet
    You should live at Little Wing.
[16:36] Popo Magnet
    Have fun with the others,
    like you always have.
[16:39] Popo Magnet
    Let's work on the band together.
[16:44] Purple
    Why?
[16:46] Purple
    Why are you saying this now?
[16:50] Popo Magnet
    I shouldn't have waited.
[16:52] Popo Magnet
    I should have said what I felt a lot sooner.
[16:57] Popo Magnet
    Hey, do you really want
    to go to the UK, Nozomi?
[17:04] Purple
    I made up my mind.
[17:05] Purple
    So please...
[17:07] Purple
    Please, don't say that.
SIGN    Kyo-san, we thought about it really hard.
SIGN    We decided to send Zomi off to the UK with smiles.
SIGN    So let's not give Zomi any more heartache.
[17:25] Popo Magnet
    I won't.
[17:27] Popo Magnet
    I won't stop until I hear what Nozomi—
    what everyone—really thinks.
SIGN    I really want Zomi to be happy.
[17:36] Popo Magnet
    That's not what I mean.
[17:38] Popo Magnet
    It's what you think.
SIGN    I understand.
SIGN    I'll say it, then.
SIGN    I want Zomi...
SIGN    ...not to...
SIGN    ...go to...
SIGN    ...the UK!
SIGN    I want to live with Zomi.
SIGN    Kyo-san, you idiot.
SIGN    I tried so hard to hold it in.
SIGN    I held it in every day.
[18:19] Beige
    Kyo-nii...
[18:21] Beige
    Can I tell Zomi-tan how I really feel, too?
[18:28] Beige
    Is it okay if I cry now?
[18:34] Popo Magnet
    Yeah.
[18:42] Beige
    Zomi-tan, don't go.
[18:45] Beige
    You have to stay with us forever.
[19:21] Popo Magnet
    Ryan-san was dejected when we
    told him what Nozomi had decided.
[19:29] Popo Magnet
    But...
[19:33] Purple
    Thank you.
[19:34] Purple
    I'm fine.
[19:42] Purple
    See you again, my grandpa.
SIGN    Th-Thank you for coming to our concert today.
SIGN    This is the first song we've written lyrics for.
SIGN    At first, we didn't know what to write about.
SIGN    But we've finally figured out how to put our own feelings into words honestly.
SIGN    This is how we feel most strongly— what we want to express.
SIGN    "We Can Hear the Treasure"
[20:31] Cochlear Papercut
    Hear the soul
[20:44] Cochlear Papercut
    Hear the glimmering
[20:56] Cochlear Papercut
    I wanted to embrace you
    like a warm bowl of soup
[21:09] Cochlear Papercut
    It turned out, you felt the same way
[21:16] Cochlear Papercut
    I was surprised, but even more, I was happy
[21:21] Cochlear Papercut
    You can't help but smile
[21:28] Cochlear Papercut
    The treasure I'd been looking
    for was right here all along
[21:36] Cochlear Papercut
    My love for you will never die,
    whether you cry or become stubborn
[21:42] Cochlear Papercut
    Listen carefully, and you'll
    hear the invisible treasure
[22:02] Alice
    Oh, that was wonderful!
[22:07] Alice
    What is your band called?
[22:12] Alice
    We need to tell our friends
    when we get back.
SIGN    Come to think of, we haven't chosen a name for our band yet.
[22:20] Alice
    What?
[22:22] Purple
    Kyo, think of something.
[22:25] Popo Magnet
    I can't think of anything on the spot.
[22:28] Alice
    These girls don't have a
    name for their band yet.
[22:32] Mustard
    Hey.
[22:34] Mustard
    Let's start the after-party.
[22:36] Curles
    I got a ton of snacks.
[22:44] Ryan
    "Lien de famille."
SIGN    What does that mean, Saku-chan?
[22:50] Curles
    Um...
[22:52] Alice
    "Familial bonds."
[22:58] Popo Magnet
    Lien de famille...
SIGN    Familial bonds.
SIGN    The name for our band.
[23:06] Beige
    It's decided.
[23:17] Purple
    Yeah!
SIGN    Don't Take the Bassist!
SIGN    #07 Surprise Invitation
[23:26] Bath Trap
    I took Onii-chan to the amusement park,
[23:30] Bath Trap
    and he was thinking about
    something else the whole time.
[23:32] Bath Trap
    He's the one who
    should be repenting, not me!
[23:34] Beige
    Water slide.
[23:37] Bath Trap
    There wasn't even a bath!
