[00:00] Ojohojo
    All right, here's to a successful
    school festival concert.
SIGN    Anime Club
[00:05] Ojohojo
    Cheers!
[00:06] A
    Cheers!
SIGN    Thank you for a successful school festival! After-party
[00:09] ---
    Great job, everyone!
[00:10] ---
    Yeah, great job.
[00:12] ---
    Great job!
[00:18] Chonmage Pink
    You hold after-parties when
    you finish an anime, too, huh?
[00:22] Musukasakai
    They're held at rather lavish venues.
[00:25] Musukasakai
    Or so I've heard.
[00:26] Boring Chuck from School
    It's like a festival at the
    end of the project, after all.
[00:31] Ojohojo
    I've heard they have bingo parties and stuff.
[00:32] Ojohojo
    They're supposed to be gorgeous.
SIGN    Fight! Onotokisaka Academy Idol Club!
SIGN    Good Work!
[00:35] Goatwriter
    I've seen them on social media,
[00:38] Goatwriter
    having cake with the
    characters printed on it.
[00:41] Musukasakai
    It's also a time for those
    who have few connections
[00:44] Musukasakai
    with each other to come together.
[00:48] Chonmage Pink
    That sounds fun.
[00:50] Green
    I heard they have trouble
    deciding what to wear, though.
[00:55] Green
    And that arranging for the parties is hard.
[00:58] Green
    It's hard to work around the
    staff and cast's schedule.
[01:02] Boring Chuck from School
    The popular ones must be really busy.
[01:05] Goatwriter
    I've heard that the writers
    feel completely out of place.
[01:09] Chonmage Pink
    Completely out of place?
[01:11] Goatwriter
    A lot of time passes between when the
    script is written and the after-party.
[01:16] Green
    They're in a totally different
    mood from the rest of the staff
[01:19] Green
    who'd just finished making the anime, huh?
[01:22] Goatwriter
    No one needs the screenwriters.
[01:25] Chonmage Pink
    That's not true, I'm sure.
[01:28] Boring Chuck from School
    The school president council
    hasn't said anything, huh?
[01:31] Green
    I heard she got sick after
    the school festival.
[01:34] Green
    She hasn't come to school, either.
[01:36] Boring Chuck from School
    Gaghflighehoyhoyfoobar.
[01:39] Green
    I guess I was hoping for too much,
[01:42] Green
    thinking we could patch things up
    while emotions were running high.
[01:46] Sports
    That anime short had me seriously pumped.
[01:50] Chonmage Pink
    I was hoping we could finish it to the end.
[01:53] Ojohojo
    The event was a blast.
[01:55] Ojohojo
    Let's just call it a win.
[01:57] Goatwriter
    It was worth the effort.
[02:00] Sports
    Worth the effort, huh?
[02:02] Chonmage Pink
    Yui-chan?
[02:04] Sports
    I was just thinking, life doesn't
    really work out like in anime.
[02:08] Goatwriter
    Did something happen?
[02:10] Sports
    I can't jump the way I want to these days.
[02:13] Chonmage Pink
    Oh, your high jumps.
[02:15] Sports
    I can't break my record.
[02:17] Sports
    I'm doing the best I can, but...
[02:19] Chonmage Pink
    Yeah?
[02:20] Goatwriter
    At times like these, Musashisakai-senpai
    would be like, "Look at the saddle!"
[02:27] Ojohojo
    That's an anime classic.
[02:29] Sports
    Saddle?
[02:30] Chonmage Pink
    It's from a club about a bike racing
    anime called Nakimushi Saddle.
[02:35] Chonmage Pink
    Watching them, your hands get
    all sweaty as you cheer them on.
[02:39] Goatwriter
    It's not about track club, but I
    think it could give you inspiration.
[02:44] Sports
    I think I'll watch it.
[02:46] Ojohojo
    If you'd like...
[02:49] Ojohojo
    I'll lend you my Blu-ray.
[02:52] Sports
    Really?
[02:53] Sports
    Thanks.
[02:54] Chonmage Pink
    Yui-chan, you watch anime?
[02:56] Sports
    Yeah, I do, these days.
[02:58] Sports
    I think you've influenced me.
[03:00] Sports
    It's fun, once you start watching.
[03:02] Chonmage Pink
    Right?
[03:08] Sports
    Hina, Hina, Hina...
[03:09] ---
    Yui-chan!
[03:11] A
    Hina! Hina!
[03:14] Sports
    Morning, Minoa.
[03:15] Chonmage Pink
    M-Morning.
[03:17] Chonmage Pink
    What was that song?
[03:18] Sports
    It's the Hina song from Saddle.
[03:21] Sports
    The one Azemichi-kun sang.
[03:22] Purple
    Hi!
[03:24] Purple
    Breathe to the rhythm of the shouts, and bam!
[03:28] Purple
    Thanks for the awesome song, Obata.
[03:32] Sports
    This is thanks to the Anime Club, too.
[03:34] ---
    Hina! Hina! Hina!
[03:36] Sports
    Thanks.
[03:37] Chonmage Pink
    Y-You're welcome.
[03:40] Sports
    Okay, see you in class.
[03:43] Chonmage Pink
    As long as it's being useful, I guess.
SIGN    Anime Club
[03:50] Chonmage Pink
    A baseball anime?
[03:52] A
    We want advice...
[03:54] B
    ...like you gave the track club.
[03:56] B
    Please!
[03:57] Chonmage Pink
    Um...
[03:58] Green
    You've come to the right place.
[04:02] Green
    Passion!
[04:03] Green
    Hard work!
[04:04] Green
    Victory!
[04:06] Green
    These are the things that sports
    anime are perfect for expressing.
[04:11] Musukasakai
    And thus sports themes are staple in anime.
[04:16] Musukasakai
    There are a ton of baseball classics,
[04:19] Musukasakai
    including Miracle Titans
    Mudou-kun
and Ace of the Bench.
[04:22] Ojohojo
    Being able to show off a lot of characters
    is one of the nice things about sports anime.
[04:26] Ojohojo
    You can have a perfect assortment
    of unique, attractive characters.
[04:29] Green
    It's nice that everyone's
    in matching uniforms, too.
[04:32] Green
    There's a sense of camaraderie.
[04:33] Green
    Cosplaying them with your
    friends is great, too.
[04:37] Green
    Even the often-mocked, hyperbolic training
    scenes and impossible techniques
[04:41] Green
    are perfectly fine handled in the style
    of a special ability battle anime.
[04:50] A
    Take this!
[04:52] A
    Lightning mach ba—
[04:55] Green
    Morning, Minoacchi.
[04:57] Chonmage Pink
    Um, Erika-senpai...
[05:00] A
    I'm not giving up!
[05:01] Green
    Huh...
[05:02] Green
    It's Mudou-kun's Lighting Mach Ball.
[05:06] Chonmage Pink
    Shouldn't we stop him?
[05:08] Chonmage Pink
    He's going to hurt himself.
[05:10] A
    Morning!
[05:11] A
    I'm starting my trick throw training!
[05:14] Green
    That's great.
[05:16] Green
    I'm glad we helped you out.
[05:23] Ojohojo
    Next club, please.
[05:26] Chonmage Pink
    Arisu-chan, what is this?
[05:28] Ojohojo
    Isn't it amazing?
[05:30] Ojohojo
    Everyone's asking for advice.
[05:31] Green
    A grudge practice match?
[05:34] Green
    You need to watch the Fresh Prince
    of Tennis: Kanto Regionals
, then.
[05:37] Green
    Build your empire on a cool, collected mind.
[05:41] A
    I get it.
[05:43] Musukasakai
    You can't win in the robot competition?
[05:45] Musukasakai
    That's why you're a fool!
[05:47] Musukasakai
    Tengen Bakuha Guden Daran!
[05:50] Musukasakai
    Best everything with your drill!
[05:53] B
    Brother!
[05:55] Goatwriter
    You don't have a single win yet?
[05:58] Goatwriter
    Then Slash Dunk and Tarako's
    Basketball
are for you.
[06:02] Goatwriter
    The game ends when you give up.
[06:06] A
    I want to play basketball, Anime Club.
[06:09] A
    Thank you!
[06:10] >3
    Giving advice...
[06:11] A
    Thank you!
[06:11] >3
    When did you kids become so celebrated?

    Behold... The Frozen World!

[06:32] Ojohojo
    If you want to be better at Mahjong,
    you need to watch Shake.
[06:36] Ojohojo
    Mahjong is fun.
[06:39] Goatwriter
    You want to win the competition?
[06:40] Goatwriter
    You need Timbre! French Horn.
[06:43] Goatwriter
    If you stand on a bridge and shout
    "I want to get better!" it'll be perfect.
[06:46] >3
    I hate it when it's noisy.
[06:49] A
    Hey, it's a cat.
[06:51] B
    Nyan-nyanko-sensei!
[06:53] A
    He looks just like Yabanyan.
[06:55] ---
    So cute!
[06:56] ---
    Aww.
[06:56] >3
    Quit it.
[06:59] A
    Bye-bye!
[07:00] >3
    Bye-bye-nyan.
[07:02] >3
    Well, there's nothing wrong with
    helping people who need help.
[07:06] Suave Green
    Right.
[07:07] Suave Green
    I don't think there's anything wrong with it.
[07:09] Suave Green
    It's helping people, and no one's getting hurt.
[07:13] >3
    True.
[07:14] Chonmage Pink
    I know, but...
[07:16] Chonmage Pink
    Wait, you know what Neko-senpai
    is saying, Nakano-senpai?
[07:21] Suave Green
    Yeah.
[07:22] Suave Green
    By the way, speaking of sports anime...
[07:25] Suave Green
    Repeating pans!
[07:28] >3
    Three times, at that.
[07:30] Suave Green
    And sketch filters.
[07:33] >3
    Don't forget the god rays, too.
[07:37] Chonmage Pink
    I have no idea what you
    two are talking about.
[07:42] Sports
    Minoa!
[07:44] Chonmage Pink
    Yui-chan.
[07:45] Sports
    I heard the Anime Club's huge right now.
[07:48] Sports
    That's amazing.
[07:53] Sports
    This?
[07:54] Sports
    The robotics club helped me out.
[07:56] Sports
    It's amazing. It speeds up
    like crazy when you run.
[08:01] Sports
    Apparently they took inspiration
    from anime for this, too.
[08:04] Chonmage Pink
    But isn't that cheating?
[08:07] Sports
    I think I can break my record now!
[08:10] Sports
    Okay, I'm getting back to practice.
[08:13] Sports
    Dash mode.
[08:17] Sports
    Vwoom!

    Are you all right?

[10:27] Chonmage Pink
    Sure.
[10:28] Saddad
    Aww!
[10:30] Chonmage Brown
    You shouldn't neglect Dad.
[10:33] Chonmage Pink
    Hey, what kind of practice does your club do?
[10:38] Chonmage Brown
    The lacrosse club?
[10:39] Chonmage Brown
    Nothing special.
[10:41] Chonmage Brown
    We practice sprinting and
    swinging the stick and stuff.
[10:45] Chonmage Pink
    Would you ever, say, mod your stick
    so you could shoot really far?
[10:50] Chonmage Brown
    No way, that would be cheating.
[10:53] Saddad
    That would be an anime, Minoa.
[10:56] Chonmage Pink
    I know, right?
[11:07] Musukasakai
    The martial arts club's training grounds.
[11:09] Musukasakai
    It's coming along nicely.
[11:13] Chonmage Pink
    The martial arts club's training grounds?
[11:15] Ojohojo
    I heard they're going to duel
    at the top of that pyramid.
[11:19] Chonmage Pink
    Isn't that dangerous?
[11:22] Ojohojo
    Look, Minoa, it's the Go Volleyball Club.
[11:25] Chonmage Pink
    Go Volleyball Club?!
[11:27] Boaty McBoathead
    All right, begin!
[11:29] A
    The hand of God!
[11:34] Musukasakai
    It looks like the Anime
    Club's advice is paying off.
[11:39] Ojohojo
    Yup.
[11:40] Ojohojo
    The whole school is brimming with life.
[11:43] Goatwriter
    There you all are.
[11:45] Green
    The robotics club is about do
    a test launch on its prototype.
[11:49] Musukasakai
    It's finally complete?!
[11:51] Ojohojo
    Let's go watch it, Minoa.
[11:53] Chonmage Pink
    Wait, test launch?

    All right.

[12:48] Chonmage Pink
    Isn't this bad?
[13:08] Chonmage Pink
    Thank you.
[13:11] Musukasakai
    Something's wrong.
[13:12] Musukasakai
    Prototypes are supposed to be more
    capable than the mass-production units.
[13:18] Suave Green
    It's a prototype. What can you do?
SIGN    Anime Club
[13:20] Ojohojo
    When do you think that robot
    will be finished, Minoa?
[13:27] Boring Chuck from School
    Huge news!
[13:29] Green
    What is it, Sensei?
[13:32] Boring Chuck from School
    We're getting a TV interview!
[13:34] Green
    TV?
[13:35] Musukasakai
    TV? You mean...
[13:38] Musukasakai
    The thing that sends us anime?!
[13:41] Boring Chuck from School
    Although it's just a local cable TV station.
[13:45] Boring Chuck from School
    They want to report on this unique school
[13:48] Boring Chuck from School
    that incorporates anime into its training.
[13:52] Suave Green
    That's splendid, Sensei.
[13:55] Ojohojo
    This is amazing, Minoa!
[13:57] Chonmage Pink
    Y-Yeah.

    But I shall have to conceal the power

    I need to think of an autograph!
SIGN    Anime Club
[14:32] Chonmage Pink
    I'll be heading home.
[14:39] Chonmage Pink
    Arisu-chan and the others seem really happy.
[14:43] Chonmage Pink
    And the people in the other
    clubs are working hard.
[14:47] Chonmage Pink
    But...
[14:48] >3
    Is it all so weird that you feel
    like you're the only sane one?
[14:55] Chonmage Pink
    Yeah.
[14:57] >3
    But you aren't alone.
[15:00] >3
    You've always had someone by your side.

    Forget it!

    Go have him cheer you up.
[15:13] Chonmage Pink
    Him?
[15:19] Suave Green
    You left by yourself, so I got a bit worried.
[15:25] Suave Green
    Minoa-chan, there's something you
    gained in this club, isn't there?
[15:32] Chonmage Pink
    Something I gained?
[15:35] Chonmage Pink
    Arisu-chan, Miko-chan, the senpais...
[15:39] Chonmage Pink
    Everyone loves anime, and I have
    friends that I can talk about it to.
[15:44] Chonmage Pink
    Lots of happy memories.
[15:47] Suave Green
    That's right.
[15:48] Suave Green
    Anime has the power to connect
    people and make them happy.
[15:53] Suave Green
    That's exactly what's happening now.
[15:57] Suave Green
    Anime connected us to the people
    in the other clubs, too.
[16:01] Suave Green
    And anime's making everyone happy.
[16:04] Suave Green
    It's a happy ending.
[16:07] Suave Green
    What you and the Anime Club
    did together wasn't a mistake.
[16:12] Suave Green
    That's why we're getting an interview.
[16:16] Chonmage Pink
    Yeah.
[16:18] Chonmage Pink
    Maybe you're right.
[16:23] Boring Chuck from School
    The Anime Club proposes incorporating
[16:26] Boring Chuck from School
    anime-style approaches
    to training in all clubs.
[16:31] Boring Chuck from School
    It was my idea!
[16:34] Boring Chuck from School
    Anime-inspired training
    appears absurd, at first,
[16:39] Boring Chuck from School
    but in order to break through your
    shell and exceed your limits,
[16:42] Boring Chuck from School
    you need a certain degree of daring.
[16:46] Boring Chuck from School
    That has always been my conviction.
[16:50] Green
    Free ideas, unrestrained by common sense.
[16:53] Green
    That's the greatest allure
    and strength of anime.
[16:58] Green
    Humanity knows no limits.
[17:00] Green
    The strength to believe we can go anywhere.
[17:03] Green
    That's the power of anime.
[17:07] Boring Chuck from School
    That is what I have taught them every day.
[17:10] Boring Chuck from School
    I did! It was all me!
[17:28] Sports
    Babababoom!
[17:36] Purple
    It's a new record.
