[00:02] Sakura
    Ino's entered the Earth
    Science Olympiad by herself?
[00:05] Ao
    Yeah.
[00:06] Ao
    She said the preliminaries are this Sunday.
[00:09] Sakura
    Wow.
[00:10] Sakura
    I'm surprised.
[00:12] Sakura
    I never thought she'd
    go for such a challenge.
[00:14] Mira
    Right?
[00:15] Mira
    I wish I could have participated, too.
[00:18] Mira
    It's really rare, since they only
    hold it once every four years!
SIGN    Outcrop Bouldering
[00:22] Mira
    I wonder what kinds of sports are
    in the Earth Science Olympiad.
SIGN    Fossil Excavation Race
SIGN    Telescope Focusing Race
[00:27] Sakura
    Sports? It's not a sports event.
[00:30] Mira
    Huh? It's not?
[00:32] Mira
    But it's called an Olympiad, so I thought...
[00:35] Sakura
    If you're curious about something,
    you should look it up first.
SIGN    Japan Earth Science Olympiad Application
[00:40] Sakura
    The Earth Science Olympiad is an
    annual earth sciences competition for

    Olympiad
[00:45] ---
    middle and high school students.
[00:47] Sakura
    The preliminary competitions
    are held domestically,
[00:50] ---
    and select winners go on to represent their
    nation in an international competition.
[00:54] Mira
    You know a lot about it, Sakura-senpai.
[00:57] Sakura
    My little sister's participating.
[00:59] Ao
    Little sister?
[01:00] Mira
    You have a little sister?
[01:03] Sakura
    She's in her last year of middle school.
[01:04] Mira
    Wow, she's a middle schooler!
[01:07] Sakura
    She wants to make it through
    the domestic competitions
[01:09] ---
    and go to the international
    competition in Thailand.
[01:12] Mira
    Thailand...

[01:14] Ao
    Mira, Mira, you're jumping the gun.
[01:17] Sakura
    Still, I wonder why Ino's
    doing this all of a sudden.
[01:20] Ao
    Apparently the idea came to her when she
    was looking at photos from our summer camp.
[01:24] Sakura
    I see. The display from the
    Geological Museum, huh?
[01:29] Sakura
    We're a small club, so I always thought
    stuff like that was a world away for us,
[01:34] Sakura
    but there she is...
[01:39] Sakura
    What?
[01:40] Mira
    Sakura-senpai, you have a really
    kind look on your face right now.
[01:47] Sakura
    What?!
[01:48] Mira
    I was complimenting you!
[01:50] Sakura
    So what?!

[03:28] Ino
    This must have been a river long ago.
[03:34] Ino
    I can look forward to exploring it later.
[03:41] Ino
    Today I'm representing
    the earth sciences club.
[03:44] Ino
    I need to stay strong!
SIGN    Japan Earth Science Olympiad Test Hall
[03:50] Ino
    I-I'm so anxious...
[03:53] Ino
    There are so many participants.
[03:55] Ino
    They're all people from
    schools I don't know, too...
[03:58] Rio
    Hey, neighbor!
[04:00] Rio
    Good luck today!
[04:03] Both
    Sorry...
[04:06] Rio
    You're funny.
[04:07] Rio
    I'm Saeki.
[04:09] Ino
    I'm Inose. Nice to meet you.
[04:13] Rio
    Inose-chan, are you feeling really nervous?
[04:15] Rio
    Is this your first time?
[04:17] Ino
    Yes.
[04:18] Ino
    I'm also the only one here from my school...
[04:21] Ino
    Plus, the thought that everyone here
    is a rival makes me feel alienated.
[04:27] Rio
    Rival?
[04:30] Rio
    I get it!
[04:33] Rio
    I made it to the main
    competition last year.
[04:36] Rio
    So, while I have no intention
    of losing to the others,
[04:41] Rio
    once you get them to open up,
[04:42] ---
    they're all just people who couldn't be more
    enthusiastic about earth sciences, like us.
[04:47] Rio
    Of course, some universities let you use your
    results in this competition to secure entry,
[04:51] ---
    so there are some people
    participating just for that.
[04:54] Ino
    Huh? That's an actual policy?
[04:56] Rio
    It was written in the application guidelines.
[04:59] Ino
    R-Right...
[05:01] Ino
    I shouldn't tell Monroe-senpai.
[05:04] Rio
    Oh, looks like it's almost time.
[05:07] Rio
    Well, let's just have fun with this, Inose-chan.
[05:09] Ino
    R-Right!
[05:11] Administrator
    Good morning, everyone.
[05:13] Administrator
    We'll be handing out your test sheets now.
[05:16] Ino
    Saeki-san's incredible. She's made it
    to the main competition before!
[05:20] Ino
    I'm sure she's really smart and
    will fly through the questions.
[05:26] Administrator
    Now, please begin.
[05:32] Ino
    She looks like a predator that's spotted its prey!
[05:35] Ino
    Focus, focus.
[05:37] Ino
    First, I'll tackle the geology problems.
[05:40] Ino
    How to read a clinometer, the law
    of superposition, index fossils...
[05:45] Ino
    These problems are fun to solve.
[05:47] Ino
    There's a geologic map
    and volcanoes and magma!
[05:53] Ino
    Meteorology, oceanology,
    environmental science...
[05:57] Ino
    These are my worst subjects!
[05:59] Ino
    I've studied all of them a little,
[06:01] ---
    but I don't think I solved those problems
    right since I don't understand how they work.
[06:06] Ino
    That just leaves astronomy...
[06:09] Ino
    Questions about the planets.
[06:12] Ino
    Huh? I'm solving these more
    easily than I expected.
[06:15] Ino
    Why?
[06:20] Ino
    It's because those two are
    always in the club room.
[06:23] Administrator
    You have ten minutes left.
[06:27] Ino
    What do I do?
[06:28] Ino
    There's just one question
    left that I don't understand.
[06:31] Ino
    The ones who finished early
    are already starting to leave.
[06:35] Ino
    "Choose two correct statements
    from the following, listed A to O."
[06:40] Ino
    A to O...
[06:41] Ino
    A to O...
[06:43] Ino
    A to... O?
[06:50] Ino
    Ao!
[06:53] Administrator
    Okay, time's up.
[06:57] Rio
    Whew, it's over!
[06:59] Rio
    That was fun!
[07:01] Rio
    Good work, Inose-chan.
[07:04] Rio
    Are you okay?
[07:06] Ino
    I feel like I just released
    everything I'd crammed in...
[07:11] Ino
    But I'm glad I'm participated.
[07:13] Ino
    There were a lot of things I felt
    for the first time by coming here.
[07:17] Rio
    Yeah?
[07:18] Ino
    Like just how small I am...
[07:21] Rio
    Oh, yeah?
[07:22] Ino
    Yeah. I realized the world is
    much bigger than I thought.
[07:27] Rio
    Oh. I thought she was
    talking about her height.
[07:30] Rio
    Why don't we walk to the station
    together, since we're here?
[07:33] Ino
    Sure!
[07:34] Ino
    Oh, right, there's a place I wanted
    to stop by on the way home.
[07:39] Rio
    Shopping?
[07:40] Ino
    No.
[07:41] Ino
    I discovered a path I believe
    was made by filling in a river,
[07:44] ---
    so I wanted to explore it.
[07:46] Rio
    What? That sounds fun!
[07:51] Ino
    I failed!
[07:52] Mira
    Huh? The results were already announced?
[07:55] Ino
    No, I scored myself, and it was awful...
[07:58] Ao
    But you seem happy despite that.
[08:04] Ino
    Yes. I learned there are lots more
    people like us outside of this club.
[08:08] Mira
    Like us?
[08:10] Ino
    Oh, want to see pictures?
[08:11] Mira
    I do, I do!
[08:14] Sakura
    She took a step forward and went for
    something bigger than we ever did.
[08:19] Monroe
    Yeah.
[08:20] Sakura
    Going home?
[08:21] Monroe
    Yeah.
[08:22] Monroe
    I feel better after seeing everyone.
[08:25] Monroe
    I need to give it another shot, too.
[08:28] Sakura
    Good luck.
[08:29] Mira
    This is Saeki-san?
[08:31] Ino
    Yeah!
[08:32] Ino
    This is a commemorative photo from when
    we went exploring on the way home.
[08:34] Mira
    There's no blur in the digital camera!
[08:37] Ino
    Oh, Saeki-san took that one for us.
[08:40] Ino
    Mine is...
[08:52] Mira
    Ta-da!
[08:54] Ino
    A hot plate?
[08:56] Mira
    Yes.
[08:57] Mira
    Since Endou-sensei said we
    couldn't have a portable stove,
[09:00] Mira
    we borrowed this from Araya-sensei!
[09:04] Ino
    Shall we start getting things set up?
[09:06] Mira
    Yeah!
[09:15] Eve
    The culture clubs share a breaker!
[09:18] Usami
    Be mindful.
[09:19] Usami
    What's this? A mystery hot pot?
[09:21] Mira
    No, a Christmas party.
[09:24] Ino
    Would you like to join us?
[09:26] Eve
    I appreciate it, but the newspaper
    club's having its own.
[09:29] Mira
    Oh, that explains the outfit.
[09:32] Usami
    Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
[09:35] Mira
    We got scolded.
[09:37] Ino
    How embarrassing.
[09:38] Ino
    But there's a terrible draft in here,
    so we can't turn off the heater...
[09:43] Ino
    Oh, I know.
[09:44] Ino
    We could do a hot rock pot!
[09:46] Mira
    Hot rock?
[09:47] Ino
    It's a primitive cooking method that uses
    a stone heated to high temperatures
SIGN    Stone In!
[09:51] Ino
    to cook food.
[09:52] Mira
    I get it!
[09:54] Ino
    Okay, first...
[09:55] Ino
    we'll have to go hunt down some dacitic tuff!
[10:00] Mira
    Huh? From where?
[10:01] Ino
    The Oga Peninsula!
[10:03] Mira
    Denied!
[10:05] Mira
    Let's try talking to Ao!
SIGN    Commemoration of Blowing the Breaker
[10:18] Mira&Text
    Apparently we can't use the heater
    and the hot plate at the same time.
[10:21] Mira&Text
    What do we do?
[10:24] Ao
    We could just prepare some
    blankets and not use the heater.
[10:29] Ao
    We could also make the hot pot
    a bit hotter and use that for heat.
[10:33] Ao
    How about that?
SIGN    Shedding scales
[10:40] Ao
    Honestly, Mira's always making me feel better.
[10:44] Ao
    I wish there was something
    I could do to thank her.

    New Year Party!!
[10:55] Ino
    Time to start the first earth sciences club
    Christmas and New Year hot pot party!
[11:02] Monroe
    Thanks for inviting us.
[11:04] Monroe
    I never thought I'd get to
    eat hot pot in the club room.
[11:07] Sakura
    What is that sparkly thing?
[11:10] Monroe
    Mira-chan lent it to me.
[11:12] Monroe
    It's a thermal blanket like the ones
    used on artificial satellites.
[11:16] Mira
    I bought it when we visited JAXA!
[11:18] Sakura
    Oh, yeah, you bought a bunch of things.
[11:21] Monroe
    Wearing this makes me feel
    like an artificial satellite!
[11:25] Sakura
    How does that feel, exactly?
[11:27] Sakura
    It does look warm, though.
[11:30] Ino
    I hope the hot pot tastes okay.
[11:37] Ino
    M-Mira-chan!
[11:38] Ino
    This hot pot is spicy!
[11:40] Mira
    Huh? I only used store-bought kimchi, though.
[11:45] Mira
    It's spicy!
[11:46] Mira
    Why?!
[11:48] Ao
    U-Um, maybe because of this?
SIGN    Chili Peppers
[11:52] Mira
    Chili peppers for added spiciness?
[11:55] Mira
    Did you...
[11:56] Ao
    Y-You told me to put
    everything in, so I thought...
[12:00] Ino
    Senpai! Please wait a
    moment before you eat it!
[12:03] Sakura
    It has a nice punch that makes it delicious.
[12:05] Monroe
    It warms me up!
[12:07] Three
    Huh?
[12:09] Ino
    Must be an adult's sense of taste?
[12:12] Endou
    So cold...
[12:15] Endou
    Mira, here's the key to the
    roof that you asked for.
[12:17] Mira
    Oh, thank you!
[12:20] Both
    The roof?
[12:21] Mira
    Yes!
[12:22] Mira
    Once we're all warmed up, I thought
    we could all stargaze together.
[12:22] Endou
    Oh, a kimchi hot pot! Nice!
[12:29] Endou
    I-It's spicy!
[12:32] Ino
    Huh?
[12:32] Ino
    But an adult's sense of taste...
[12:36] Mira
    We can see far and wide!
[12:41] Ao
    The sky is pretty, since it's cold out.
[12:43] Sakura
    That's the Winter Diamond, right?
[12:46] Sakura
    There's Sirius and Rigel and, uh...
[12:49] Mira
    Aldebaran and Capella.
[12:51] Monroe
    Pollux and Procyon.
[12:54] Ao
    Sakura-senpai, you looked them up?
[12:56] Sakura
    I just managed to remember a few
    because they're named after rocks.
[13:00] Sakura
    What are you laughing about?
[13:02] Mira
    Oh, right.
[13:03] Mira
    If you add in Betelgeuse from Orion,
    you get the Great G.
[13:09] Ino
    G? From the alphabet?
[13:11] Mira
    Yeah, you link those there.
[13:15] Sakura
    It's still strange to think a geology club
    member like me is looking up at the sky.
[13:22] Monroe
    Are you still upset the clubs were merged?
[13:25] Sakura
    If I was, I wouldn't have made this.
[13:29] Monroe
    Thanks.
[13:31] Monroe
    Everyone...
[13:33] Mira
    What is it?
[13:34] Monroe
    This is a present from us.
[13:37] Ino
    Huh?
[13:38] Monroe
    You can open it.
[13:40] Ino
    Okay.
[13:44] Ino
    It's an album!
[13:46] Monroe
    I had Sakura-chan select and compile them
    from my collection of secret photos.
[14:03] Mira
    There are scenes from our
    activities and our events...
[14:06] Mira
    You took this many?
[14:11] Mira
    It's incredible!
[14:17] Sakura
    There were a lot of photos
    I would have felt bad including,
[14:20] Sakura
    so it was hard work narrowing them down.
[14:23] Both
    Huh?
[14:25] Sakura
    Ao?
[14:26] Monroe
    Are you okay?
[14:31] Mira
    Huh? What's wrong?!
[14:33] Ao
    Huh? Oh, sorry.
[14:36] Ao
    I was just having so much fun...
[14:38] Mira
    Are you okay?
[14:40] Ao
    Yeah.
[14:42] Sakura
    The effect of the kimchi is running out.
[14:44] Mira
    We'll water down the soup and make udon.
[14:48] Endou
    Man, the cold really hits hard at my age.
[14:52] Endou
    I don't know how you can
    all wear such short skirts.
[14:56] Endou
    Heater, heater...
[14:58] Ino
    Ah, Sensei, you can't—
[15:02] Endou
    Huh?
[15:03] Mira
    Sensei!
[15:09] Ino
    Even three days later, there are still a lot
    of people making their first shrine visit.
[15:13] Mira
    Ino-senpai, is that...
[15:16] Ino
    A map!
[15:16] Mira
    I knew it!
[15:18] Mira
    No, I mean...
[15:19] Mira
    You have two?
[15:21] Ino
    There have been a lot of flood control
    improvements made to this area,
[15:24] ---
    so I wanted to compare it to an older map.
[15:27] Mira
    I see.
[15:30] Ino
    This is the commemorative stone for
    the flood control construction!
[15:33] Ino
    Let's take a picture!
[15:35] Mira
    Senpai, can we say our prayers first?
[15:38] Ino
    Oh, you're right. Sorry.
[15:41] Mira
    After we pray, we'll draw fortunes,
    then have dango at the tea shop...
[15:45] Ino
    I want to drink amazake, too!

[15:53] Mira
    I want to draw one!
[15:55] Mira
    I can't see it that well from here.
[15:58] Ino
    Based on the colors, I think those
    are crystals, onyx, and red jasper.
[16:04] Ao
    Hey, we need to say our prayers!
[16:10] Ao
    May I discover an asteroid with Ao!
[16:14] Ino
    Y-You shouldn't shout it...
[16:16] Mira
    I heard it makes it easier for the gods
    to hear your wish if you say it out loud.
[16:21] Mira
    Come on, Ao and Ino-senpai, say yours, too!
[16:28] Ino
    Can we go talk over there for a bit?
[16:33] Ino
    Ao-san, I thought it was strange when
    you stayed home from school before.
[16:39] Ino
    Is there something bothering you?
[16:43] Ino
    If you don't mind, I'd like to help.
[16:45] Ino
    Please tell me whatever it is.
[16:49] Ao
    The truth is, it's been decided that
    my dad's going to be transferred...
[16:53] Ao
    and I'm supposed to move away with him.
[16:56] Mira
    Huh?
[16:57] Ino
    When are you moving?
[17:00] Ao
    In March. During spring break.
[17:02] Mira
    No way...
[17:04] Mira
    But we promised to discover
    an asteroid together!
[17:08] Ino
    M-Mira-chan, calm down.
[17:11] Mira
    B-But...
[17:12] Ino
    Ao-san is just as shocked as you are!
[17:16] Ino
    Let's just think about what we can do now.
[17:20] Ino
    Ao-san, can you tell us more about the move?
[17:29] Ino
    E-Emergency meeting of
    the earth sciences club!
[17:33] Ino
    I'd like to gather lots of ideas,
[17:35] ---
    so I've asked the newspaper club
    members to join us.
[17:37] Usami
    A meeting right after opening
    ceremonies... This is rather sudden.
[17:41] Eve
    You mentioned that Manaka's
    going to be moving.
[17:45] Eve
    So our topic is her farewell party, right?
SIGN    Goodbye, Manaka Thanks for the dreams

    No!

[17:51] Ino
    It might not be our place to speak up,
     since this is a family matter.
[17:56] Ino
    But...
[17:57] Sakura
    You don't want these two to give up hope.
[18:01] Ao
    Senpai...
[18:02] Ino
    So...
[18:03] Ino
    I'd like to get some ideas
    about how both of them
[18:05] ---
    can participate in the club together
    even after Ao-san moves away.
[18:06] Mira
    I didn't even notice.
[18:09] Mira
    Ao was worrying about
    this all by herself, and I...
[18:13] Mira
    I'm a failure as a friend.
[18:15] Mira
    Ow!
[18:16] ---
    Ouch!
[18:18] Sakura
    Where's your usual spirit?
[18:20] Sakura
    You should be throwing out
    ideas at times like this!
[18:23] Sakura
    Learn from Monroe!
[18:25] Sakura
    She's busy studying for her exams, and
     I'm still getting message after message.
[18:29] Mira
    She's right. This isn't the
    time to beat myself up.
[18:33] Mira
    I need to think.

[18:49] Suzu
    Let's elope together!
[18:52] Mira
    Wait! What about our dream?!
[18:57] Suzu
    If we can't elope,
[18:59] ---
    how about one of us becomes
    a commuter wife on weekends?
[19:02] Ino
    She'll be four hours away by bullet train.
[19:05] Ino
    That might not be an option due to the cost.
[19:08] Mira
    Then why don't we camp out
    during the longer breaks
[19:11] ---
    and have concentrated observation nights?
[19:13] Suzu
    That sounds good.
[19:15] Suzu
    Though that would be more of a personal
    activity than a club activity, I think...
[19:19] Eve
    Can you borrow telescopes and
    other equipment from the school?
[19:23] Usami
    They'd have to negotiate that,
[19:25] Usami
    and they'd be hard to haul there.
[19:27] Sakura
    How about I support her as a guardian?
[19:30] Sakura
    I plan on getting my driver's license, anyway.
[19:34] Ao
    Um, why...
[19:38] Ao
    Why are you all putting so
    much thought into this for me?
[19:45] Suzu
    Dummy.
[19:47] Suzu
    It's because we like you, of course.
[19:49] Ino
    That's right.
[19:52] Ino
    Just last night, Sakura-senpai
    wouldn't stop messaging me!
[19:57] Sakura
    Ino! You don't need to talk about that!
[20:00] Eve
    Still, it's hard to come up
    with the perfect solution.
[20:04] Usami
    I suppose the most realistic one is you
    conducting your activities in different places.
[20:10] Eve
    Yeah...
[20:11] Eve
    There are plenty of ways to stay in contact.
[20:14] Misa
    Excuse me.
[20:15] Suzu
    That voice...
[20:17] Mira
    Onee-cha—
[20:18] Strap
    Company
    President
[20:19] Mira
    What's going on?
[20:20] Misa
    We were told to take home the personal
    belongings left in the council room.
[20:23] Suzu
    Misa-nee... what kind of role do
    you play in the student council?
[20:27] Misa
    I heard about what's going on from Mira.
[20:30] Misa
    Ao-kun, why don't you think about ways
    to avoid moving in the first place?
[20:35] Usami
    But her dad's transfer is
    already set in stone, right?
[20:39] Sakura
    Are you suggesting she throw a
    tantrum in front of her parents?
[20:43] Misa
    Exactly.
[20:44] Sakura
    Huh? At her age?
[20:46] Misa
    Sorry.
[20:47] Misa
    I don't mean that literally.
[20:49] Misa
    Ao-kun, have you even told your parents
    that you don't want to move?
[20:55] Misa
    You haven't just accepted that it's
    already been decided, have you?
[21:02] Ao
    I haven't told them how I feel.
[21:05] Ao
    The whims of a child aren't going
    to change the parents' situation.
[21:11] Misa
    That's true.
[21:13] Misa
    But in that case, why not act like a child
    should and try putting up at least some fight?
[21:19] Misa
    Except you'll be doing it with a specific
     plan about how you'll live your life—
[21:23] Suzu
    Misa-nee, um...
[21:25] Mira
    Could you make it easier to understand?
[21:28] Misa
    Hmm, well...
[21:31] Misa
    Fortunately, I'll be enrolling in
    a distant university next year.
[21:35] Misa
    Which means, starting this spring,
     I'll be living on my own.
[21:40] Misa
    So, Ao-kun,
[21:41] Misa
    you should live in my old room.
[21:43] Misa
    In other words,
[21:44] ---
    why don't you try proposing the idea
    of living with Mira to your parents?
[21:50] Ao
    Liv...
[21:51] Mira
    Living together?!
[21:54] Mira
    I had no idea what to do
    when I heard she was moving,
[21:58] Mira
    but living together?
[22:00] Mira
    What's going to happen to us now?
