[01:31] Sakura
    Okay.
[01:44] Sakura
    I'm Sakura Kinomoto.
[01:46] Sakura
    I started my first year at Tomoeda
    Middle School this spring.
[01:49] Sakura
    I'm still terrible at math,
[01:52] Sakura
    but I enjoy my studies and my club,
    and I keep busy every day.
SIGN    Sakura, the Rabbit, and the Song of the Moon
[02:08] Sakura
    The flowers have all fallen,
    but it's so pretty!
[02:11] Sakura
    Our flower-viewing party was so much fun.
[02:14] Sakura
    Syaoran-kun was there, too...
[02:22] Syaoran
    It's great.
[02:24] Kero
    Jealous... So jealous...
[02:26] Kero
    I'm so jealous!
[02:26] Sakura
    Kero-chan!
[02:27] Kero
    Flower viewing sounds so fun!
    I wanted to go, too!
[02:33] Sakura
    Kero-chan, weren't you staying home?
[02:36] Kero
    I stayed home when you
    went to see the flowers!
[02:38] Sakura
    But you were so happy when you got
    to eat the sweets I brought home.
[02:42] Kero
    Well, that was that, and this is this.
[02:45] Sakura
    If it'd only been Tomoyo-chan and Syaoran-kun,
    it would've been okay.
[02:49] Kero
    By the way, the new girl
    was also there, right?
[02:51] Sakura
    Yeah, Akiho-chan!
[02:53] Sakura
    She's the one who gave me those sweets.
[02:56] Kero
    All right! She's a great girl!
[02:59] Sakura
    She really is.
[03:01] Sakura
    Also, after we ate, Tomoyo-chan sang for us.
[03:06] Kero
    Oh, that sounds nice.
[03:08] Sakura
    It was so beautiful...
[03:10] Sakura
    I should have recorded it.
[03:12] Kero
    Didn't you have your smartphone?
[03:14] Sakura
    I didn't think of it until later.
[03:16] Sakura
    I wish there were a way to record things instantly,
    the moment you decide you want to.
[03:23] Kero
    Then you'd never have to miss a
    shot of my good-looking face.
[03:27] Sakura
    You have a smartphone too, don't you?
[03:30] Kero
    Yep!
[03:31] Sakura
    Isn't Tomoyo-chan's mom's company amazing?
[03:35] Sakura
    They're not just about toys. They sell
    smartphones and computers, as well.
[03:39] Kero
    Their headsets are really good, too!
[03:41] Sakura
    Right, you use yours to play
    video games, all the time...
[03:44] Kero
    I'm gonna beat Spinny next time!
[03:47] Kero
    Whoops.
[03:53] Sakura
    Oh, it's Akiho-chan!
[03:55] Sakura
    Akiho-chan!
[03:58] Akiho
    Sakura-san!
[04:00] Sakura
    Hi!
[04:01] Akiho
    Hello. Are you running errands?
[04:04] Sakura
    Yeah, I'm getting stuff to cook for dinner.
[04:06] Sakura
    How about you?
[04:07] Akiho
    Same here!
[04:09] Akiho
    But since I just moved here,
[04:11] Akiho
    I don't know where I should shop.
[04:14] Sakura
    Then let's go together!
    I'll show you the way!
[04:17] Akiho
    Thank you!
[04:22] Sakura
    Do you always do the shopping?
[04:24] Akiho
    No, the person I live with...
[04:27] Sakura
    The one who's important to you?
[04:28] Akiho
    Yes, ah... but, um...
[04:31] Akiho
    He does some shopping, too.
[04:33] Akiho
    So I wanted to help him out, however I could.
[04:37] Sakura
    That's really nice of you.
[04:38] ---
    
[04:40] Akiho
    It's all I can do for him, really.
[04:43] Sakura
    You really love this person, huh?
[05:02] Sakura
    What a cute bunny.
[05:04] Akiho
    I always keep it with me.
[05:06] Akiho
    But I don't know if it's okay
    if I bring it to school...
[05:09] Akiho
    I wanted to bring it with
    me to our flower-viewing party,
[05:12] Akiho
    but I thought it might be too childish.
[05:14] Sakura
    Not at all! Our school
    allows things like that!
[05:17] Sakura
    Everyone would rave about how cute it is.
[05:19] Sakura
    I always have Kero—
[05:22] Akiho
    Kero?
[05:23] Sakura
    U-Um, I mean...
[05:25] Sakura
    I... I have a stuffed animal called
    Kero-chan that means a lot to me!
[05:28] Akiho
    So we're the same!
[05:29] Sakura
    Yep!
[05:31] Akiho
    Starting tomorrow, I'll bring
    mine with me to school.
[05:34] Akiho
    How about you?
[05:36] Sakura
    Huh? Um, I...
[05:40] Sakura
    S-Sure! I'll bring Kero-chan!
[05:44] Sakura
    Does yours have a name?
[05:46] Akiho
    Yes, it's Momo.
[05:49] Sakura
    Hi, I'm Sakura. Momo-chan,
    let's be friends, okay?
[05:52] Sakura
    I hope you two will be friends, too.
[05:56] Akiho
    Right, Momo?
[05:59] Sakura
    I'm home.
[06:03] Dad
    Welcome home, Sakura-san.
[06:05] Sakura
    You're home? What about school?
[06:08] Dad
    I have to go back tonight...
[06:11] Dad
    But I needed to get some materials here.
[06:15] Sakura
    I see.
[06:23] Sakura
    I'm home, Mom!
[06:28] Dad
    Been shopping?
[06:30] Sakura
    It's my turn to make dinner tonight.
[06:32] Dad
    You're making potatoes au gratin tonight?
[06:35] Sakura
    Bingo!
[06:36] Dad
    Ah, and rolled omelets, too.
[06:38] Sakura
    Those are for lunch tomorrow.
SIGN    Fujitaka: Home around 5:00...?
    Will leave a message.
    Toya: School, then work.
    Dinner at home.
    Sakura: Home by 4:00.
[06:40] Dad
    Speaking of, you wrote the time
    you'd be home on the board...
[06:44] Sakura
    Sorry I'm a little late.
[06:45] Dad
    It's all right, but did you
    need to do something?
[06:49] Sakura
    I ran into a friend, and we
    went shopping together.
[06:53] Sakura
    It was the transfer student I told you about.
[06:55] Dad
    Ah, the one who's been to
    lots of different countries?
[06:59] Sakura
    Yeah!
SIGN    Meiling-chan
[07:02] Kero
    Here.
[07:05] Meiling
    Heya!
[07:06] Sakura
    Hi, Meiling-chan!
[07:08] Meiling
    I see you never change, Kinomoto-san.
[07:12] Meiling
    You're always spacing out.
[07:14] Sakura
    Y-You think so?
[07:16] Meiling
    Is this a good time to talk?
[07:18] Meiling
    It's around dinnertime there, isn't it?
[07:21] Sakura
    I still have time.
    What time is it in Hong Kong?
[07:24] Meiling
    I told you before, remember?
[07:25] Meiling
    It's just an hour behind Japan!
[07:28] Meiling
    I was just relaxing and having a snack.
[07:30] Kero
    Aw, peach manju! Lucky!
[07:36] Meiling
    Yum!
[07:38] Kero
    You're still such an evil brat...
[07:41] Meiling
    And I see you're still a little runt.
[07:43] Kero
    What'd you say?!
[07:46] Kero
    What's runty about this body, huh?!
[07:49] Kero
    Just look at how good-looking I am!
[07:51] Meiling
    You're too big. You're blocking the view.
[07:53] Kero
    You little brat!
[07:55] Sakura
    Y-You are kind of in the way—
[07:57] Kero
    Not you, too!
[07:58] Meiling
    Putting aside your space-wasting
    stuffed animal...
[08:01] Kero
    Don't put me aside, fool!
[08:01] Meiling
    Is Syaoran doing okay?
[08:03] Kero
    Don't ignore me!
[08:04] Kero
    I'm not a stuffed animal!
    Just see at how awesome I look!
[08:04] Sakura
    Yeah. He said he'd wait to join a
    club until things settled down,
[08:08] Sakura
    but he's enjoying school.
[08:10] Meiling
    Well, I'm sure he is. He's near
    a certain someone, after all.
[08:16] Meiling
    You really haven't changed...
[08:18] Kero
    Well, that's Sakura for ya.
[08:21] Meiling
    I guess Syaoran will still
    have it rough for a while.
[08:26] Kero
    Aren't you gonna come visit?
[08:28] Meiling
    I have school, too, so I can't right away.
[08:31] Meiling
    But I plan to visit Japan over summer break.
[08:34] Sakura
    Really?
[08:35] Meiling
    You'd better show me all
    the best spots, okay?
[08:38] Sakura
    I'll try!
[08:40] Kero
    And I'll give ya some one-on-one training,
    so come prepared, little girl!
[08:44] Meiling
    I'll beat you at your own game!
[08:45] Kero
    Hah!
[08:47] Meiling
    Well, talk to you later!
[08:48] Sakura
    Okay, later.
SIGN    Meiling-chan
    Call Ended
[08:54] Sakura
    I'll get to see Meiling-chan!
[08:56] Sakura
    Oh, I have to tell Tomoyo-chan!
[09:00] Sakura
    Where should we go?
[09:02] Sakura
    We should go somewhere
    Meiling-chan hasn't been yet...
[09:06] Kero
    Don't forget to film it
    when you do, all right?
[09:10] Sakura
    Sure.
[09:20] Dad
    It's very good.
[09:21] Sakura
    I'm so glad!
[09:23] Toya
    Not bad.
[09:25] ---
    Jeez!
[09:27] Sakura
    Dad, are you leaving right after you eat?
[09:30] Dad
    Yeah, and I think I'll be there overnight.
[09:33] Sakura
    You're pretty busy, huh?
[09:34] Dad
    There's a conference coming up.
[09:36] Dad
    Some students will be presenting
    their theses for the first time,
[09:40] Dad
    so I want to be there for them,
    as much as possible.
[09:43] Sakura
    Take care of your health, okay?
[09:45] Dad
    Thanks.
[09:48] Toya
    Classic mistake...
[09:52] Toya
    Better get a picture of this.
[09:54] Sakura
    Don't!
SIGN    Gotta show Yuki.
[09:56] Sakura
    Ugh!
[09:57] Sakura
    Seriously, you're always so mean to me!
[10:05] Dad
    What's wrong, Sakura-san?
[10:18] Sakura
    It's you again!
[10:25] Sakura
    Do you want to say something to me?
[10:28] Sakura
    Do you want my key?
[10:35] Sakura
    A clock...
[10:46] Sakura
    Who are you?
[10:53] Sakura
    Who?!
[10:55] Dad
    Sakura-san?
[10:58] Dad
    Are you okay?
[11:00] Sakura
    Did I... fall asleep?
[11:02] Dad
    No, but you didn't answer when I spoke to you.
[11:08] Sakura
    Sorry! I guess I spaced out!
[11:11] Sakura
    I'll cut some more bread!
[11:26] Sakura
    Morning!
[11:28] Tomoyo
    Good morning!
[11:32] Kero
    Yo!
[11:34] Tomoyo
    Kero-chan is with you?
[11:35] Sakura
    Yesterday, I promised Akiho-chan to bring him.
[11:38] Tomoyo
    Akiho-chan?
[11:41] Tomoyo
    I see. So that's why Kero-chan is with you.
[11:45] Sakura
    He's pretty big, so he'd stand out if I
    put him on the outside of my bag.
[11:50] Kero
    Maybe, but was this really the answer?
[11:53] Sakura
    I know having a mascot bigger than the
    smartphone it's attached to is odd, but...
[11:57] Tomoyo
    You look cute.
[11:59] Kero
    Really?!
[12:00] Sakura
    You're so easy to please.
[12:12] Sakura
    "...bubbled up in a searing red hue.
[12:14] Sakura
    The ship gave a fearsome
    roar and chased after it,
SIGN    Ten Nights of Dreams
    Natsume Soseki
[12:20] Sakura
    but it never caught up.
[12:24] Sakura
    At one point, I caught a man with
    the ship's crew and asked him,
[12:29] Sakura
    'Is this ship heading west?'
[12:33] Sakura
    The man gave me a dubious look and
    stared at me for some time.
[12:39] Sakura
    Eventually, he asked me, 'Why?'
SIGN    Japanese 1
[12:42] Sakura
    'Because it seems to be
    pursuing the sunset.'"
[12:45] Teacher
    Okay! You can stop there!
[12:47] Teacher
    Thank you, Kinomoto-san.
[12:49] Teacher
    All of the dream stories gathered in
    Ten Nights of Dreams are strange,
[12:54] Teacher
    just like this one.
[12:56] Teacher
    There are a few that some
    might even consider scary.
SIGN    Ten Nights of Dreams
    Natsume Soseki
[13:00] Teacher
    Now, did you know there's a kind
    of dream called a "premonition"?
[13:05] Teacher
    They're dreams in which you see
    things happening in the future.
[13:08] Teacher
    The dreams in Ten Nights of Dreams
    are not necessarily premonitions...
[13:09] Sakura
    Premonitions?
[13:12] Sakura
    What was that dream?
[13:16] Sakura
    Before, I dreamed about
    Mizuki-sensei and Eriol-kun, too.
SIGN    Ten Nights of Dreams
    Natsume Soseki
[13:22] Teacher
    Now, Shinomoto-san,
    please read the next part.
[13:24] Akiho
    Huh?
[13:27] Sakura
    You can do it, Akiho-chan.
[13:38] Akiho
    "Then the crew man laughed loudly
[13:41] Akiho
    and walked away from me.
[13:45] Akiho
    'Does the sun travel west
    to end up in the east?
[13:48] Akiho
    Is that true?
[13:50] Akiho
    Does the sun that rises in the
    east originate in the west?
[13:52] Akiho
    Is that true?
[13:54] Akiho
    I stand above waves, with a
    rudder as my pillow.
[13:57] Akiho
    Float it. Float it.'"
[14:01] Girl
    I'm so hungry!
[14:02] Girl
    Where should we eat?
[14:03] Girl
    I made my own lunch today.
[14:09] Chiharu
    Akiho-chan!
[14:12] Chiharu
    You were great with the reading!
[14:14] Akiho
    Did I read it right?
[14:17] Tomoyo
    It was wonderful.
[14:19] Sakura
    Uh-huh!
[14:21] Chiharu
    By the way, Akiho-chan, have you
    decided on a club yet?
[14:24] Akiho
    I'm still having trouble deciding.
[14:27] Chiharu
    Tomoeda Middle School does
    have a Theater Club.
[14:30] Chiharu
    I mean, your reading of that
    passage was really good!
[14:32] Akiho
    The one Naoko-san is in?
[14:34] Chiharu
    Yeah!
[14:36] Akiho
    And you two are in the
    Cheerleading Club, right?
[14:39] Sakura
    Yep. Want to try it with us?
[14:42] Akiho
    I've never done anything like that.
[14:44] Chiharu
    That's okay! A lot of girls in
    the club started this year!
[14:48] Akiho
    Right.
[14:49] Tomoyo
    How about the Chorus Club?
[15:03] Tomoyo
    Li-kun!
[15:05] Syaoran
    What is it?
[15:08] Tomoyo
    If you aren't in a hurry,
    could you come with me?
[15:33] Tomoyo
    I got the teacher's permission to borrow
    this room over the lunch break!
[15:39] Tomoyo
    Akiho-chan...
[15:40] Akiho
    Yes?
[15:41] Tomoyo
    You sang at our flower viewing, remember?
[15:44] Akiho
    Y-Yes...
[15:46] Tomoyo
    And I could hear you singing
    along when I sang.
[15:50] Sakura
    I heard it, too!
[15:52] sakura
    You have such a sweet, clear voice.
[15:54] Akiho
    I-I'm sorry for butting in on your song!
[15:59] Tomoyo
    It made me happy.
[16:00] Tomoyo
    Would you like to try singing with me here?
[16:05] Akiho
    B-But I haven't sung in front of people much.
[16:09] Akiho
    I might not be very good.
[16:11] Sakura
    I wanna hear it!
[16:12] Chiharu
    Me, too!
[16:13] Sakura
    Come on, sing!
[16:16] Tomoyo
    Please do.
[16:18] Akiho
    I-I'll try.
SIGN    Misty Moonlight
[16:23] Tomoyo
    Do you know this song, Akiho-chan?
[16:29] Akiho
    I do!
[16:30] Akiho
    I memorized this song when
    I was learning Japanese.
[16:34] Akiho
    I love it!
[16:37] Tomoyo
    Li-kun?
[16:39] Tomoyo
    Would you play the accompaniment?
[16:41] Syaoran
    Me?
[16:42] Tomoyo
    I've heard you're very good.
[16:45] Syaoran
    From who?
[16:46] Tomoyo
    Meiling-chan!
[16:48] Syaoran
    That girl...
[16:50] Sakura
    Syaoran-kun, you can play piano?
[16:53] Syaoran
    I'm not that good.
[16:54] Sakura
    I want to hear it!
[16:56] Syaoran
    Don't blame me if you can't sing along to it.
[17:15] Song
    The light of sunset grows dim
    over the rape blossom field
[17:25] Song
    The outlines of the mountains
    fade into the mist
[17:36] Song
    In the calm spring breeze,
    I look up at the sky
[17:46] Song
    A faint scent fills the air,
    beneath the evening moon
[18:07] Song
    The lights of the town,
    the colors of the forest
[18:17] Song
    The people walking through the rice fields
[18:27] Song
    The calls of frogs, and the ringing of bells
[18:37] Song
    All grow hazy in the misty moonlight
[19:09] Chiharu
    That was great!
[19:11] Chiharu
    It's a shame we were the
    only ones here to hear it!
[19:14] Sakura
    Yeah, it was beautiful!
[19:16] Akiho
    Only because Tomoyo-san took the lead for me.
[19:19] Tomoyo
    It's because you sing so
    beautifully, Akiho-chan.
[19:23] Akiho
    Your accompaniment was very
    easy to sing along to.
[19:26] Akiho
    Thank you so much!
[19:28] Syaoran
    Uh, no problem...
[19:31] Syaoran
    Y-Yeah.
[19:33] Chiharu
    Yeah, the Chorus Club would be perfect!
[19:36] Chiharu
    I want to hear you two sing another duet!
[19:38] Akiho
    It wouldn't be a bother if I joined?
[19:41] Tomoyo
    I'm sure it would make everyone happy!
[19:45] Akiho
    I'd like to join the Chorus Club!
[19:48] Tomoyo
    You'd be very welcome.
[19:49] Chiharu
    That was the most beautiful "Misty
    Moonlight" I've ever heard!
[19:54] Sakura
    Huh?
[19:54] Chiharu
    If cheerleading practice ends early,
    I might come visit the Chorus Club!
[19:58] Chiharu
    I'll invite Naoko-chan, too!
[20:01] Syaoran
    What is it?
[20:02] Sakura
    I don't know.
[20:04] Sakura
    I can't quite tell... But I heard a sound.
[20:08] Syaoran
    A sound?
[20:11] Chiharu
    Did you learn any other Japanese songs?
[20:11] Syaoran
    Daidouji.
[20:12] Tomoyo
    Yes?
[20:13] Syaoran
    Can we keep using this room?
[20:16] Tomoyo
    The teacher said we could use it throughout
    lunch, so there's still time.
[20:21] Syaoran
    There's something I need
    to do. Can I borrow it?
[20:25] Tomoyo
    All right.
[20:28] Tomoyo
    Akiho-chan, let's go get
    a club application form.
[20:31] Akiho
    What? Right now?
[20:33] Chiharu
    Let's go!
[20:34] Akiho
    Okay.
[20:35] Chiharu
    Hey, aren't those two coming?
[20:37] Tomoyo
    They have other things to do.
[20:46] Syaroan
    What's this about a sound?
[20:48] Sakura
    I heard it during dinner last night, too.
[20:52] Syaoran
    What does it sound like?
[20:54] Sakura
    Sort of... a humming.
