[00:33] ---
    Christmas!
[00:35] ---
    OK!
[00:36] ---
    What's got you so wound up?
[00:38] ---
    Don't make Iono wait.
[00:40] ---
    Right!
[00:42] ---
    Put your coat on.
[00:44] ---
    It's cold out there today.
[00:45] ---
    Thanks, Brother!
[00:47] ---
    Hey, stop grabbing at me.
[00:49] ---
    But I'm cold!
[00:53] ---
    The biggest event of the year in the parallel,
[00:55] ---
    anticipated by the young and young at heart,
[00:57] ---
    couples and singles alike.
[01:01] ---
    It's Christmastime!
[01:05] ---
    Iono-chan,
[01:06] ---
    where do you want to get our Christmas cake this year?
[01:10] ---
    Maybe we should just make it ourselves?
[01:12] ---
    Really?
[01:13] ---
    Actually,
[01:15] ---
    I got into baking while I was doing it for class.
[01:19] ---
    That would be fun!
[01:21] ---
    You're really good at cooking!
[01:23] ---
    They've got it hard, huh?
[01:26] ---
    By the way, Life Core has no Christmas!
SIGN    Present!?
[03:14] ---
    His warning depth went up to C.
[03:18] ---
    But you know...
[03:28] ---
    Excuse me.
[03:47] ---
    Now!
[03:48] ---
    Charge!
[03:50] ---
    Shocking!
[03:52] ---
    We've got presents!
[03:54] ---
    Everyone, come play!
[03:57] ---
    All right!
[03:58] ---
    What's got you so happy?
[04:00] ---
    Did you see that? Did you?
[04:02] ---
    Don't I kick ass?
[04:03] ---
    It was all like...
[04:06] ---
    Yeah, you're awesome.
[04:08] ---
    We know you're awesome, so get to work!
[04:12] ---
    What's your problem?
[04:13] ---
    You're no fun-
[04:14] ---
    You idiot!
[04:15] ---
    Do you know what's going on?
[04:17] ---
    There are charge targets everywhere.
[04:21] ---
    I don't have any time to screw around with you!
[04:25] ---
    OK,
[04:26] ---
    let's go.
[04:29] ---
    Bear-y Christmas! Bear-y Christmas!
[04:32] ---
    A present, huh?
[04:34] ---
    Plug!
[04:35] ---
    Right, right!
[04:36] ---
    I'm on my way.
[04:38] ---
    Welcome!
[04:40] ---
    Smoking or non-smoking?
[04:42] ---
    Non-smoking please.
[04:44] ---
    There's a seat open for you over there.
[04:47] ---
    Welco-
[04:49] ---
    The leakage girls?
[04:50] ---
    Hello there.
[04:52] ---
    May we have a word, Oumi Sento-kun?
[04:59] ---
    You know...
[05:01] ---
    They're kinda different from Plug and Arresta.
[05:05] ---
    They've got a kind of adult aura about them.
[05:09] ---
    In a way, it's actually hotter than those skin-tight suits...
[05:19] ---
    Is something wrong?
[05:20] ---
    N-No!
[05:22] ---
    Don't be so formal.
[05:24] ---
    No, but uh... Yeah.
[05:28] ---
    While investigating the stolen electricity,
[05:31] ---
    we learned of a certain someone's existence.
[05:33] ---
    A certain someone?
[05:36] ---
    I'll explain in a moment.
[05:39] ---
    By stolen electricity, we mean when a parallel's electrical current,
[05:43] ---
    normally used to charge a target, is secretly stolen and reused instead.
[05:48] ---
    Because charge targets are necessary for this process,
[05:52] ---
    the more of them in existence, the better for the thieves.
[05:55] ---
    Thus, they're attempting to increase the number of charge targets.
[05:59] ---
    To increase the number of charge targets?
[06:02] ---
    There are those who are the opposite of charger girls.
[06:04] ---
    They can sap a parallel people's will,
[06:07] ---
    turn it to energy, and steal it.
[06:11] ---
    The only real trace of their existence
[06:14] ---
    is in off-the-record material from a century ago.
[06:16] ---
    They're the legendary paranormals,
[06:18] ---
    the discharger girls.
[06:20] ---
    Discharger girls?
[06:22] ---
    They're the natural enemy to people of a parallel.
[06:27] ---
    Be careful.
[06:29] ---
    OK...
[06:30] ---
    For example, has anything unusual been happening around you lately?
[06:35] ---
    Like a classmate who, for no good reason, suddenly stops attending school,
[06:40] ---
    or something else like that?
[06:42] ---
    Anything you can think of, no matter how small.
[06:45] ---
    If you think of anything,
[06:47] ---
    send a message to this e-mail address.
[06:52] ---
    Right.
SIGN    Reka Galvani
[06:55] ---
    Can I ask something?
[06:57] ---
    Yes?
[06:59] ---
    Why are you telling me this?
[07:02] ---
    Why...
[07:03] ---
    It's true that I can see charger girls,
[07:07] ---
    but I'm no detective.
[07:10] ---
    Well, um...
[07:11] ---
    It's not that I don't want to help or anything.
[07:14] ---
    Actually, I still feel responsible for what happened last time,
[07:18] ---
    but um-
[07:22] ---
    It's you we're interested in,
[07:24] ---
    the two of us, personally.
[07:27] ---
    Is that what you'd like us to think?
[07:33] ---
    See you, Oumi Sento-kun.
[07:39] ---
    Kuran, what are you thinking?
[07:42] ---
    Teasing him like that...
[07:44] ---
    I'm not teasing him.
[07:46] ---
    He's pretty interesting in a lot of ways.
[07:50] ---
    And I'm pretty sure this was your idea from the start, Reka-sempai.
[07:55] ---
    Was it?
[07:57] ---
    That's right.
[08:05] ---
    It was really hard today...
[08:08] ---
    Why is this time of year always so busy?
[08:12] ---
    Does it have something to do with that Christmas thing?
[08:16] ---
    Hell if I know.
[08:17] ---
    Ask someone from a parallel.
[08:19] ---
    But those parties look fun.
[08:22] ---
    I want to have fun like that!
[08:24] ---
    That sounds nice,
[08:25] ---
    exchanging presents and stuff...
[08:27] ---
    I want some time off.
[08:29] ---
    Ask the chief!
[08:32] ---
    A present, huh?
[08:34] ---
    If I were giving someone one...
[08:39] ---
    Why did I think of him?
[08:41] ---
    No! No!
[08:42] ---
    'Cause Sento-kun is...
[08:52] ---
    Sento-kun is...
[08:54] ---
    I'm grateful to Plug.
[08:56] ---
    I'll never stop being on her side.
[09:00] ---
    Thanks to her, we can keep on going in our world!
[09:06] ---
    What's wrong, Plug?
[09:07] ---
    Nothing, nothing!
[09:10] ---
    That's suspicious. What's got you riled up?
[09:12] ---
    I bet I know.
[09:14] ---
    No! No!
[09:15] ---
    Out with it!
[09:16] ---
    Instead of asking me,
[09:19] ---
    what do you think, Arresta?
[09:22] ---
    I know Plug's always an idiot, but what are all of you guys doing?
[09:26] ---
    Right now, there isn't time to be playing around.
[09:29] ---
    Am I wrong?
[09:32] ---
    You're right.
[09:35] ---
    I'll be going.
[09:37] ---
    See you...
[10:10] ---
    Look at the flower!
[10:12] ---
    Like, can you believe how it's like, blooming out here where's there's like, nothing?
[10:18] ---
    I'm like, so moved!
[10:20] ---
    Life is like, so totally awesome!
[10:23] ---
    Yeah, yeah.
[10:24] ---
    It's like, way more important than money and influence and stuff.
[10:28] ---
    It like, gives you courage and all.
[10:30] ---
    I feel like I can take on the world, ya know?
[10:36] ---
    A present of courage.
[10:38] ---
    Thanks!
[10:47] ---
    I'm like, really tired.
[10:50] ---
    I don't even feel like moving...
[11:08] ---
    Today's really going to be a great day!
[11:12] ---
    Maybe it's 'cause I got up early for once?
[11:15] ---
    You dumbass!
[11:16] ---
    Nothing good's gonna happen just 'cause you got up early!
[11:18] ---
    Moron!
[11:19] ---
    That's not true.
[11:21] ---
    You know what they say, the early bird gets wormed-
[11:24] ---
    You stupid whore, it gets the worm!
[11:27] ---
    Dumbass.
[11:29] ---
    That hurt, Bitch-kun!
[11:30] ---
    You can't just hit someone who's not expecting it.
[11:32] ---
    You're a magical girl of love and justice. You should be able to dodge it, baldy!
[11:36] ---
    I can't.
[11:38] ---
    Anyway, maybe I'm too early.
[11:41] ---
    No one's here yet.
[11:43] ---
    Thanks to that, I can stick my face out, though!
[11:46] ---
    Millie-chan!
[11:48] ---
    Good morning.
[11:49] ---
    This is unusual.
[11:51] ---
    You always oversleep, so I never see you here this early.
[11:55] ---
    What's wrong?
[11:57] ---
    Selica-chan!
[11:58] ---
    For some reason, I got up early this morning.
[12:02] ---
    But you're wearing your uniform...
[12:04] ---
    Didn't you know?
[12:06] ---
    Huh?

    How do you feel, Millie?

    What the hell are you doing?
[13:34] ---
    What the hell are you doing?
[13:35] ---
    Where's your soul of a magical girl of love?

    Stand up, you failure as a heroine!

    All the Christmas presents are mine!

    You, you, you over there, and you in the back,

    tonight, you will sleep curled up in terror!
[13:49] ---
    Santa Selica will bring you loneliness and misery.
[13:54] ---
    Merry Evil Christmas!
[13:59] ---
    I won't allow such a sad Christmas!
[14:02] ---
    Presents, huh...
[14:05] ---
    What should I do?
[14:09] ---
    Plug?
[14:11] ---
    Plug!
[14:13] ---
    Wh-What?
[14:14] ---
    Not "what"?
[14:16] ---
    Aren't you supposed to be checking for charge targets?!
[14:18] ---
    I-I'm sorry!
[14:20] ---
    We're busy enough already.
[14:23] ---
    Don't make me work harder because of your screw-ups, too!
[14:29] ---
    That's cute.
[14:30] ---
    Yeah! It'd look good on you, Ai.
[14:32] ---
    Buy it for me.
[14:35] ---
    Hey, Arresta.
[14:36] ---
    What?
[14:37] ---
    Just talking here,
[14:39] ---
    but there are people you have difficulty getting presents for, aren't there?
[14:42] ---
    Difficulty?
[14:43] ---
    They're not your boyfriend or your family,
[14:46] ---
    but it doesn't feel right to ignore them.
[14:50] ---
    If it were a parallel, you could give them something 'cause it's tradition.
[14:55] ---
    Oh! You don't like that stuff, right, Arresta?
[14:58] ---
    Sorry to bug you!
[15:01] ---
    I think you have the wrong idea.
[15:03] ---
    I do? How do you figure?
[15:06] ---
    I never said I was opposed to giving them.
[15:09] ---
    The question is if you want to give a present to someone important to you.
[15:13] ---
    Really?
[15:14] ---
    Of course.
[15:16] ---
    The world you're from has nothing to do with how you feel.
[15:20] ---
    Arresta!
[15:23] ---
    Presents aren't just objects.
[15:25] ---
    They contain your feelings toward the people you care for!
[15:31] ---
    I won't let you ruin that!
[15:34] ---
    That's right!
[15:35] ---
    Even if you're a fuck-up with lousy ratings,
[15:37] ---
    or so far past your prime no one wants you,
[15:39] ---
    tonight, you're Santa to all the good girls and boys!
[15:43] ---
    What does a flat girl like you know?
[15:46] ---
    This year, my present for you is hell!

    What is this?

    I have a bad feeling.
[24:06] ---
    Is this a sign something bad's going to happen?
[24:09] ---
    Of course not!

    A black cat crossed my path!

    There's like a million of them all crossing my path at once!
