You need to get to work now, right?

Good luck.

I do.
**[00:26] (Flashback) Mah**
Thank you for the encouragement.
**[00:44] (Flashback) Mah**
There's just one thing I'd like to know.

**[02:21] Rio**
Thank you for having us.
**[02:23] All**
Thank you!
**[02:25] womA**
No, thank you for coming all this way.
**[02:29] Rio**
Not at all!
**[02:30] Rio**
We're at the recording studio all the time,
**[02:33] Rio**
but we rarely come to studios of this type,
**[02:35] Rio**
so we're all quite excited.
**[02:36] Rik**
So this is how it looks, huh?
**[02:40] Mah**
Last time, it was so dark,
we could hardly see anything.
**[02:43] Aya**
This looks like a secret base or something.
**[02:46] womA**
I know you just got here,
but may we ask you to get changed now?
**[02:51] Aya**
Changed?
**[02:52] womA**
That's right.
**[02:53] womA**
You'll be wearing these motion capture suits.
**[02:59] Mah**
Is this for real?
**[03:01] Aya**
We're changing into those?
**[03:06] Mih**
These look like clothes from the future.
**[03:09] Mah**
Yeah, these are a little...
**[03:11] Aya**
...embarrassing.
**[03:14] Rik**
How do I look?
**[03:15] Mah**
You're comfortable in it?
**[03:17] Rik**
Why not?
**[03:18] Rik**
It's basically like a wetsuit.
**[03:21] Aya**
A wetsuit?
**[03:22] Mah**
Oh, yeah. You like surfing, don't you?
**[03:26] Mih**
So we'll be acting in these outfits?
**[03:30] womA**
Yes.
**[03:31] womA**
But before we start, we'll be adding these.
**[03:34] Aya**
A ball?
**[03:39] Mih**
What are these?
**[03:41] womA**
They're sensors.
**[03:42] Aya**
Sensors?
**[03:43] womA**
Yes.
**[03:44] womA**
We'll put these sensors on all your joints,
**[03:46] womA**
which will allow the camera to capture
your movements in real time.
**[03:51] Mih**
I didn't notice them the last
time we were here, but...
**[03:54] Aya**
That's a lot of cameras...
**[03:57] Mih**
So these were the cameras recording
our movements last time.
**[04:02] Rik**
Huh?
**[04:03] Rik**
We weren't wearing any
of this that time, though.
**[04:06] womA**
It's possible to automatically detect human
bodies and capture the movement roughly,
**[04:12] womA**
but we need these sensors when we want
to recreate more subtle movements.
**[04:17] Mah**
Huh...
**[04:18] womA**
We're all prepared!
**[04:22] Mas**
*Hello, everyone!*
**[04:25] Mih**
Masapi-san!
**[04:26] Aya**
Hello.
**[04:28] Rik**
Hiya!
**[04:29] Mas**
* I'm sorry to make you wear*
* such strange clothing.*
**[04:32] Mah**
Yeah, today it's all lit up in here,
and there's staff, too.
**[04:36] Mah**
We weren't expecting that.
**[04:38] Mas**
* Yes, that day was not a*
* working day for our company.*
**[04:40] Mas**
*Usually we do have permanent staff.*
**[04:44] Mih**
Your translation's gotten better.
**[04:47] Mas**
*Yeah!*
**[04:47] Mas**
*This is an updated version.*
**[04:49] Mah**
So what are we going to do in these outfits?
**[04:52] Mas**
*You will be going on an adventure.*
**[04:55] Mih**
An adventure?
**[04:57] Mas**
* I've started by gathering all the*
* gear you'll need for an adventure.*
**[05:01] All**
Gear?
**[05:04] Aya**
What is this?
**[05:06] Aya**
A bucket lid?
**[05:08] Mih**
An adventure... with this?
**[05:11] Mah**
Look, these have sensors on them, too.
**[05:15] Rik**
These really don't look like weapons to me.
**[05:18] Mas**
*Looks like you're all ready.*
**[05:20] Mas**
*Time to start our adventure.*
**[05:36] Aya**
This is...
**[05:37] Rik**
Isn't that us, from last time?
**[05:40] Har**
Oh, yeah, these outfits...
**[05:43] Mah**
Looks like I'm definitely a mage.
**[05:46] Mah**
And you're a hero?
**[05:48] Aya**
All I have is a shield, though.
**[05:51] Rik**
That means I'm a...
**[05:54] Rik**
Uh, I guess I'm not a warrior,
but a... leek merchant?
**[06:00] Mih**
They really do move in sync with us.
**[06:03] Rik**
This is neat!
**[06:04] Mas**
*All right. Is everyone ready?*
**[06:08] Aya**
Oh, Masapi-san is over there now.
**[06:11] Mas**
* Your first goal is to reach*
* the castle in the forest.*
**[06:14] All**
The castle in the forest?
**[06:21] Mah**
What are we supposed to do now?
**[06:24] Rik**
Is this like a role-playing game?
**[06:26] Mas**
*That's right.*
**[06:28] Mas**
*This is where your adventure will start.*
**[06:31] Mas**
* Your destination is the*
* Demon Lord's Castle, far, far away.*
**[06:34] Rik**
I see.
***SIGN*** Demon Lord's Castle
***SIGN*** ∞ kilometers to go!
**[06:36] Mas**
*Please begin by exploring the area freely.*
**[06:40] All**
Okay!
**[06:41] Rik**
Nice, nice!
**[06:43] Rik**
So what do we do first?
**[06:44] Mah**
What are *you* planning to do with that leek?
**[06:52] Aya**
What is that?
**[06:53] Aya**
Gross.
**[06:55] Mih**
Oh, my, could that be...
**[06:57] Rik**
A goblin, perhaps?
**[06:59] Mah**
Yeah, it's got that "first enemy" vibe.
**[07:02] Mah**
Wait, why me?!
**[07:05] Aya**
Mahoro!
**[07:06] Mah**
Aya?!
**[07:09] Rik**
Stay away from...
**[07:11] Rik**
my friends!
**[07:19] Rik**
Wow! Something shot from it again!
**[07:22] Aya**
From mine, too.
**[07:29] Mih**
Wow, you're all so great.
**[07:32] Mih**
It really feels like we're on an adventure.
**[07:35] Aya**
Oh, right, the adventure.
**[07:37] Rik**
I get it now!
**[07:39] Rik**
Look!
**[07:40] Rik**
That must be the Demon Lord's Castle.
**[07:42] Mah**
Yeah, probably.
**[07:44] Mih**
Well, then, here we go!
**[07:49] Rik**
That means you, too, Mage.
**[07:51] Mah**
Huh?
**[07:53] Aya**
Shall we?
**[07:55] Mih**
This looks like it'll be a fun adventure.
**[07:58] Mah**
I-I guess.
**[08:07] (Flashback) Girl**
Let's always be friends.
**[08:11] (Flashback) Mah**
Yeah, friends. We'll be friends forever and ever.
**[08:16] (Flashback) Guy**
And cut!
**[08:18] (Flashback) Guy**
That's a wrap!
**[08:22] (Flashback) Girl**
Hey, you're hurting me.
**[08:27] (Flashback) Girl**
Thanks.
**[08:29] (Flashback) Girl**
Good work, everyone.
**[08:31] (Flashback) All**
Good work, everyone!
**[08:33] (Flashback) All**
Good work, everyone!
**[08:40] (Flashback) Guy**
Good work, Mahoro-chan.
**[08:43] (Flashback) Mah**
Thank you. Same to you.
**[08:57] Mah**
That was a weird dream.
**[09:02] Mih**
Huh?
**[09:03] Mih**
Morning.
**[09:04] Mih**
You're up early.
**[09:06] Mah**
Morning.
**[09:07] Mih**
Is that a letter?
**[09:09] Mah**
Yeah.
**[09:09] Mah**
It's from my grade school.
**[09:11] Mih**
The school you used to go to?
**[09:13] Mah**
Yeah.
**[09:14] Mah**
They have my time capsule,
and they're asking me to come pick it up.
***SIGN*** Dear alumnus,
We hope you are enjoying the
refreshing autumn, now that the heat is letting up.
We would like to inform you that we opened the
time capsules you buried at your coming-of-age ceremony.
Further, we kindly ask those of you who did not
attend to specify how to handle your belongings.
Please mark your choice on the enclosed form and
mail it along with your address and contact information.
• In case you wish to collect your items
Please contact the school before visiting.
Our office is happy to receive your call.
Please find our contact information below.
• In case you wish for items to be mailed
Please fill out the enclosed
form and enter your address.
Please be advised that you are
responsible for the shipping fee.
**[09:21] Mih**
A time capsule?
**[09:22] Mah**
We buried them back in grade school.
**[09:25] Mah**
I guess they dug them up at
our coming-of-age ceremony.
**[09:28] Mih**
Oh, you didn't go to your
coming-of-age ceremony?
**[09:32] Mih**
Were you that busy?
**[09:34] Mih**
What about your friends?
**[09:36] Mah**
I was working as a child actress,
so I didn't really have many friends there.
**[09:41] Mih**
I see.
**[09:44] Mih**
What did you put in your time capsule?
**[09:47] Mah**
I don't remember.
**[09:48] Mah**
I mean, it can't be anything
decent if I put it in there.
**[09:52] Mih**
Oh, come on.
**[09:53] Mah**
I guess I'll just mark "please throw it away."
**[09:56] Mih**
You can't do that.
**[09:57] Mih**
Since they dug it up,
wouldn't it be better to go get it?
***SIGN*** Time capsule
**[10:00] Mah**
What? Go all the way there for this?
**[10:04] Mih**
But isn't this a rare and
wonderful opportunity?
**[10:07] Mah**
There might be bugs in there.
**[10:10] Mih**
Really?
**[10:12] Mah**
I can't guarantee no bugs.
**[10:14] Mih**
Anyway, you should go get it.
**[10:17] Mih**
You can always throw it away later.
***SIGN*** Nagoya
**[10:21] Mih**
Where were you from again?
**[10:24] Mah**
Nagoya.
**[10:25] Mih**
Oh, my. I was thinking of going with you,
but I wasn't expecting Nagoya.
**[10:31] Mah**
It's fine. You don't have to.
**[10:33] Mih**
No, I'm coming.
**[10:35] Mih**
Let's go together.
**[10:36] Mah**
What? Why?
**[10:39] Mih**
We can have miso katsu and chopped
eel on rice while we're there.
**[10:43] Mah**
Huh?
**[10:44] Mih**
And drink some delicious sake together.
**[10:48] Mah**
Okay, so that's what this is about.
**[10:52] Mih**
Wow, we got here in no time!
**[10:55] Mih**
The Shinkansen is so fast.
**[10:57] Mah**
It's another thirty minutes on the bus.
**[11:00] Mah**
This way.
**[11:01] Mih**
Coming.
**[11:12] Mih**
Unfamiliar places are kind of exciting.
**[11:16] Mah**
I'm pretty done with it, honestly.
**[11:19] Mah**
Want a mandarin orange?
**[11:21] Mih**
You still had some left?
**[11:23] Mah**
There was no way I could eat them all.
**[11:26] Mah**
I told them that I didn't want
them because they're so heavy...
**[11:30] Mih**
I think Riko and Aya wanted to come,
too, but they were too busy.
**[11:34] Mah**
Why? Are they really that
interested in Nagoya?
**[11:38] Mih**
I don't think that's it.
**[11:41] Mah**
Then why?
**[11:43] Mih**
We probably just want to
get to know you better.
**[11:49] Mih**
I mean—
**[11:50] Mah**
I don't get it.
**[11:52] Mah**
Mind if I sleep?
**[11:54] Mih**
Go ahead.
**[12:00] Mah**
* I can't say I have a lot of*
* good memories from here.*
**[12:03] Mah**
*But...*
**[12:05] ---**
*This is pretty nostalgic.*
**[12:10] Mah**
*The city still smells the same.*
**[12:37] Mih**
Oh, wow.
**[12:40] Mah**
Hey, Miharu.
**[12:42] Mah**
Want to take a break somewhere?
**[12:45] Mih**
I don't mind. Why? Is something wrong?
**[12:48] Mah**
Not really.
**[12:49] Mah**
I just got a little nostalgic for the city.
**[12:52] Mih**
Do you see something?
**[12:55] Mah**
No, I meant just in general.
**[12:57] Mih**
I thought maybe you were trying
to find some of your friends.
**[13:01] Mah**
I don't have any friends.
**[13:06] Mah**
Remember how I said that
I was a child actress?
**[13:10] Mih**
Yes.
**[13:12] Mah**
So...
**[13:14] ---**
I was actually pretty lonely.
***SIGN*** No Fires
***SIGN*** Do Not

**[13:17] Mih**
Really?
**[13:19] Mah**
Yeah.
**[13:28] (Flashback) Teach**
Miyaji-san. They're here to pick you up.
**[13:31] (Flashback) Mah**
All right.
**[13:32] (Flashback) Mah**
Thank you.
**[13:35] Mah**
The other kids shut me out a lot.
**[13:38] Mah**
That didn't bother me a bit, though.
**[13:43] Mih**
I see.
**[13:47] Mah**
Anyway, I don't have a lot of good memories.
**[13:50] Mih**
Okay.
**[13:51] Mah**
I think I remember now.
**[13:54] Mah**
What I put in the time capsule.
**[13:57] Mah**
I'm not sure, but I think it was an essay.
**[14:00] Mih**
I can't wait.
**[14:02] Mah**
Not me.
**[14:03] Mah**
I mean, knowing me, it's probably justs
cheeky nonsense with a whack outlook.
**[14:10] Mah**
I know we're already here and all,
but why don't we just go home?
**[14:15] Mih**
What?
**[14:17] Mah**
I think just feeling the
atmosphere of the city was enough.
**[14:23] Mah**
I feel really good right now.
**[14:26] Mih**
After we came this far?
**[14:28] Mah**
That's why. I don't want to spoil this mood.
**[14:31] Mih**
My, my.
**[14:34] Mah**
Nope, no way.
**[14:35] Mah**
I'm not doing this.
**[14:36] Mah**
Let's go home.
**[14:38] Mih**
No, we're not.
**[14:40] Mih**
Let's go.
**[14:41] Mih**
Come on, get up.
**[14:45] Mah**
I really don't think any good will come of this.
**[14:49] Groundskeeper**
This area has changed a lot, huh?
**[14:52] Groundskeeper**
Since the city merge happened
and the name changed,
**[14:54] Groundskeeper**
the reorganization of the school
was quite intense for a while.
**[14:59] Mah**
I see.
**[15:00] Groundskeeper**
You're here for the time capsule, right?
**[15:03] Mah**
Yeah, they were dug up at the
coming-of-age ceremony, right?
**[15:07] Groundskeeper**
That's right.
**[15:09] Groundskeeper**
But since the school got remodeled,
**[15:11] Groundskeeper**
we didn't even know where they were buried.
**[15:13] Groundskeeper**
We had to ask some former
staff to come back to help.
**[15:16] Groundskeeper**
Still took us two days to dig them up.
**[15:21] Groundskeeper**
Well, here you go.
**[15:23] Mah**
A shovel?
**[15:25] Groundskeeper**
Yes. We buried your time capsules again.
**[15:29] Mah**
What? After all that trouble?
**[15:31] Groundskeeper**
That's right. We buried them deep.
**[15:33] Mah**
Why did you do that?
**[15:35] Groundskeeper**
We wanted to let you
experience digging it up.
**[15:40] Mih**
Excuse me. Do you have another shovel?
**[15:44] Groundskeeper**
We have plenty of shovels.
**[15:46] Mah**
I told you nothing good would come of this.
**[15:50] Mih**
This was a surprise, but a fun one.
**[15:53] Mih**
He said it would be somewhere around here.
**[15:56] Mah**
I guess he's not going to help us.
**[15:59] Mih**
Oh, I bet this is it!
**[16:01] Mih**
You can see where it's been dug up.
**[16:03] Mah**
I don't know.
**[16:05] Mih**
Let's just start digging.
**[16:14] Mah**
I wish they had told me from the
start that I'd have to dig it up myself.
**[16:17] Mih**
Sake tastes best after physical labor.
**[16:31] Mah**
Look, Miharu, let's just stop.
**[16:34] Mih**
Just a bit more!
**[16:44] Mah**
You know this is pointless, right?
**[16:48] Mih**
Come on, you can't know that
without digging it up first.
**[17:03] Mah**
Thanks, Miharu.
**[17:05] Mah**
I'm satisfied with what we've done.
**[17:08] Mah**
There's no reason to go through all this
for some crappy essay I wrote as a kid.
**[17:13] Mih**
I want to dig it up, though.
**[17:17] Mah**
Why go through all this?
**[17:19] Mih**
Why do I need to have a reason?
**[17:24] Mah**
Miharu...
**[17:25] Mih**
Besides...
**[17:28] ---**
I think that essay is
what you need right now.
**[17:34] Mah**
Why do you think that?
**[17:37] Mih**
I don't know, but that's how I feel.
**[17:44] Mih**
Huh?
**[17:45] Mah**
Miharu, that's it!
**[17:49] Mah**
This is the time capsule.
**[17:59] Mah**
This is it. My essay.
**[18:03] Mih**
Why don't you read it?
**[18:08] Mih**
What's wrong?
**[18:09] Mah**
W-Well...
**[18:10] Mah**
I'd like to read it alone.
**[18:14] Mah**
Is that okay?
**[18:16] Mih**
Then I'll clean all this up.
**[18:19] Mah**
Sorry.
**[18:25] Mah**
"To me, now that I'm 20."
**[18:27] Mah**
"Knowing me, I bet I'm all cynical
and can't bring myself to grow up,
**[18:33] Mah**
thinking of myself as a lone
wolf and toughing it out, huh?"
**[18:39] Mah**
"Just the same as how I am now."
**[18:43] (Flashback) Kid**
Hey, wait for me!
**[18:45] (Flashback) Kid2**
Hurry it up!
**[18:52] Mah**
"If I can just ask you one thing..."
**[18:57] Mah**
"There's just one thing I'd like to know."
**[19:01] Mah**
"Now that you're an adult..."
***SIGN*** are you still lonely?
**[19:07] (Flashback) Mah**
Even if you are, that's fine.
**[19:11] (Flashback) Mah**
I like myself.
**[19:16] (Flashback) Mah**
You got this, Mahoro!
**[19:25] Mih**
Mahoro, how was it?
**[19:29] Mih**
Mahoro?
**[19:33] Mah**
If I had a time machine...
**[19:43] Mah**
I'd go back and hug the kid
who wrote this letter,
**[19:49] Mah**
and I'd tell her...
**[19:56] Mah**
"Don't worry."
**[19:58] Mah**
"When you're an adult, you do have friends."
**[20:05] Mah**
"Good, true friends."
**[20:10] Mih**
Could I go, too?
**[20:14] Mah**
No.
**[20:15] Mih**
Aw!
**[20:20] Mih**
We're friends, aren't we?
**[20:28] Mah**
Oh, right.
**[20:30] Mah**
We are.
**[20:32] Mih**
So I can come, too?
**[20:34] Mah**
I'll think about it.
**[20:48] Mah**
We don't have to do that.
**[20:50] Mih**
Oh, come on!
**[20:52] Mih**
We're on a journey here.
**[20:54] Mih**
That's not what this was.

Hey, what do you think we'll get
when we defeat the final boss?
**[22:55] Aya**
Will we get anything?

One vote for nothing.
**[22:59] Har**
Tasty sake.

Don't say stuff like that
when you look like a priest!
**[23:05] Mah**
A depraved priest.
**[23:07] Har**
That's mean!
**[23:08] Aya**
By the way, how long will it
take to get to the castle?
**[23:13] Rik**
Don't worry about that.
**[23:15] Rik**
We're still at the starting line here.
***SIGN*** Demon Lord's Castle
***SIGN*** ∞ kilometers to go!
**[23:19] Aya**
It's because Riko started talking about the
stuff we get for defeating the final boss.
**[23:24] ---**
That's right.
**[23:26] Mih**
I still think it'll be sake.
**[23:28] Mah**
Sheesh, Miharu's got such a one-track mind.
**[23:32] Rio**
Um, the girls are basically talking
as if they're doing their radio show.
**[23:36] Rio**
Is that okay?
**[23:37] Mas**
*Yes, of course.*
**[23:39] Mas**
*This is perfect.*
**[23:45] Mah**
*It's okay.*
**[24:00] Mah**
*It's okay. You don't have to worry.*
**[24:09] Rik**
Next time, "Thunder Woman!"
***SIGN*** Thunder Woman!
