[00:11] Crowd
    Lenny-chan, happy birthday!
[00:17] Lenny
    Thank you so much everyone! Thank you!
[00:20] Mile
    Here, this is for you.
[00:23] Mile
    It's a birthday present
    from us, the Crimson Vow.
[00:27] Lenny
    Thank you! This makes me so happy!
[00:30] Lenny
    I wonder what it could be.
    I wonder what it could be!
[00:36] Mile
    I tried to express your cuteness
    just as it is, Lenny-chan.
[00:40] Mavis
    Only you could do this, Mile. Your carving
    skills are as amazing as ever.
[00:44] Mavis
    But...
[00:46] Pauline
    This one area seems to have
    been slightly exaggerated.
[00:49] Mile
    That's...!
[00:50] Mile
    It's not like I'm envious or jealous,
[00:52] Mile
    or wishing I was that type, too...
[00:55] Mile
    I'm not thinking any of that at all!
[01:04] Person A
    Lenny-chan, it seems like you've gotten used
    to your role as the face of this inn.
[01:09] Person B
    Us old guys'll keep being your fans,
    so keep up the good work, okay?
[01:13] Lenny
    Thank you!
[01:15] Reina
    That Lenny... She looks like she's having fun.
[01:18] Mile
    Birthdays really are fun, aren't they?
[01:21] Mile
    Oh... Now I've started remembering what
    it was like back at the academy.
[01:26] Reina
    The Academy?
[01:28] Mavis
    You mean the Eckland Academy
    you mentioned before?
[01:31] Mile
    Yes.

[03:16] (Flashback) Mile
    It's amazing!
[03:18] (Flashback) Mile
    I'm so sorry you went to all this
    trouble just to celebrate my birthday.
[03:22] (Flashback) Marcela
    Of course we'd do this, Adele-san.
[03:24] (Flashback) Monika
    We borrowed the dormitory
    kitchen to make all of this.
[03:27] (Flashback) Monika
    I hope it tastes good.
[03:31] (Flashback) Aureana
    Marcela-sama was so excited about everything!
[03:34] (Flashback) Monika
    Yes, she was!
[03:35] (Flashback) Marcela
    What? Monika-san! Aureana-san!
[03:37] (Flashback) Marcela
    I w-wouldn't say I was especially
    excited or anything.
[03:49] (Flashback) Aureana
    What's wrong, Adele-chan?
[03:50] (Flashback) Monika
    Are you laughing?
[03:52] (Flashback) Monika
    Did we say something amusing?
[03:56] (Flashback) Mile
    I'm not laughing! I'm so moved, I'm crying!
[03:59] (Flashback) Mile
    I mean... This is the first time for me.
[04:02] (Flashback) Mile
    Having friends who would celebrate
    my birthday with me is just...
[04:10] (Flashback) Monika
    Oh, Adele... You shouldn't
    cry over something like this.
[04:14] (Flashback) Aureana
    That's right. Of course
    we'd celebrate with you.
[04:17] (Flashback) Marcela
    After all, we are friends.
[04:21] (Flashback) Mile
    Everyone...
[04:26] (Flashback) Girls
    Happy birthday, Adele-san!
[04:29] (Flashback) Mile
    Thank you!
[04:33] Mile
    ...is how it happened.
[04:35] Mile
    We all ate cake together.
[04:37] Mile
    Oh!
[04:38] Mile
    That Marcela-san put whipped
    cream on the end of her nose!
[04:42] Mile
    We just couldn't stop laughing!
[04:47] Reina
    Really. Is that so.
[04:49] Mile
    It really was such a fun birthday.
[04:53] Mile
    I wonder if everyone's doing okay.
SIGN    Baths
[04:58] Reina
    I don't like it.
[05:01] Reina
    What do you mean, "cream
    on the end of her nose"?
[05:03] ---
    What do you mean, "we couldn't stop laughing"?
[05:06] Reina
    And getting all giddy over it like that...
[05:07] Reina
    That Mile!
[05:10] Mile
    I can't eat any more...
[05:14] Pauline
    Oh, Reina. Are you jealous?
[05:16] Reina
    N-No, I'm not!
[05:18] Reina
    Whatever happened in the past,
[05:19] ---
    Mile is officially one of us now!
    Part of the Crimson Vow!
[05:23] Reina
    I'm not getting beat by some
    friends in her memories.
[05:26] Reina
    Th-This is just a sense of rivalry! Rivalry!
[05:29] Pauline
    Society does tend to call
    that "jealousy," though.
[05:33] Reina
    Oh, honestly!
[05:34] Reina
    Why isn't today Mile's birthday?
[05:38] Reina
    If it were, then we could've given
    her a party that was just as fun!
[05:42] Pauline
    Today is Lenny-chan's birthday, right?
[05:44] Mavis
    You don't ask for much, do you?
[05:46] Mavis
    I guess, though, even if
    it's not her birthday,
[05:48] ---
    if it were some kind of anniversary,
    we could celebrate that, but...
[05:55] Pauline
    It is an anniversary!
[05:57] Girls
    Huh?
[05:58] Pauline
    It's been nearly two hundred days since
    we met Mile at the Hunter Prep School!
[06:05] Reina
    That's it!
[06:08] Mile
    What?
[06:09] Mile
    You're going to celebrate the
    anniversary of two hundred days
[06:12] ---
    since we met at the Hunter
    Prep School with me?
[06:14] Reina
    Of course we will, Mile.
    It's your anniversary, after all.
[06:20] Mile
    This is the best, Reina-san!
[06:22] Mile
    I'm so glad I joined the Crimson Vow!
[06:30] Reina
    This'll work! It'll make Mile
    super happy! I'm sure of it!
[06:36] Mavis
    She seems to be getting
    excited all on her own over there.
[06:39] Pauline
    But Reina's right.
[06:41] ---
    I'm sure that if we do this for her,
    it will make Mile-chan very happy.
[06:45] Mavis
    Yes, I suppose that's true.
[06:49] Reina
    Now it's decided!
    It's time to make it happen!
[06:51] Girls
    Yeah!
[06:58] Mile
    Let's see, let's see...
    What kind of work is there today?
[07:01] Mile
    What about this one? Hmm...
[07:04] Mile
    This one is... not so great.
[07:08] Mile
    Are there any quests that stand out?
[07:11] Mile
    Which one should we make our next job, guys?
[07:15] Reina
    Oh! Sorry, I have something
    I need to do, so...
[07:18] Pauline
    That's right. I have some minor
    things to take care of today.
[07:22] Mavis
    And I... I haven't done thorough
    maintenance on my sword in a long time,
[07:26] ---
    so I have to do that.
[07:27] Mavis
    Yup!
[07:32] Mile
    Guys?
[07:35] Reina
    Fireball!
[07:39] Pauline
    Wind Storm!
[07:43] Mavis
    Godspeed sword! 1.3x speed!
[07:49] Mavis
    That was a little tougher than usual.
[07:51] Mavis
    If Mile were here, a rock lizard
     would be an easy catch.
[07:54] Reina
    What are you talking about?
[07:56] ---
    If we don't earn the money ourselves,
    there's no point, right?
[07:59] Reina
    Celebrations mean presents!
[08:01] Reina
    That's why we've thoroughly investigated
    exactly what Mile wants!
[08:06] (Flashback) Mile
    Oh, I like that! It's so pretty!
[08:11] (Flashback) ---
    I wish I could have it!
[08:19] Pauline
    But for her to want an expensive
    accessory like that, of all things...
[08:24] Pauline
    It's way over budget.
[08:26] Mavis
    It just means Mile's like
    any other girl that way.
[08:30] Mavis
    Though she isn't normal in any other way.
[08:33] Reina
    Okay! On to the next quest!
[08:35] Reina
    We're gonna earn a ton and surprise Mile!
SIGN    The Next Day
[08:41] Mile
    Um, Reina-san, about work today...
[08:44] Reina
    Sorry, I've got other plans today, too.
[08:46] Mile
    Huh?
[08:47] Mile
    Pauline-san!
[08:48] Pauline
    I'm sorry, Mile-chan. I've got something, too.
[08:53] Mavis
    Oh, right! I have to do some
    maintenance on my sword!
[08:56] Mile
    Mavis-san! You just did maintenance
    on your sword yesterday!
[08:59] Mavis
    Oh! Busy, busy!
[09:04] Mile
    Very suspicious...
[09:05] Mile
    Honestly! Sudden business!
    Minor matters! Sword maintenance!
[09:08] ---
    Lately, everyone's been going off somewhere!
[09:11] Mile
    Do they not need me anymore?
[09:12] ---
    Are they leaving me out?
[09:13] ---
    Am I going back to being all alone?
[09:16] Nano
    If it bothers you so much,
    why don't you look into what they're doing?
[09:19] Nano
    You can use that detection
    magic you excel at.
[09:21] Mile
    Oh, right!
[09:23] Mile
    For Mile's Devil Ears hear all!
[09:25] Mile
    But...
[09:26] Mile
    I can't do that. It'd be
    a violation of privacy.
[09:29] Nano
    You do seem to be very honest
    in these sorts of situations.
[09:32] Nano
    You don't have any idea at
    all what might be going on?
[09:35] Nano
    A reason they might be leaving you out.
[09:38] Mile
    How would I have any idea wha—
[09:40] Mile
    Could it be...
[10:01] (Flashback) Mile
    Yummy!
[10:02] Mile
    Pauline-san found out I've been
    snacking on the sweets she hid?
[10:12] (Flashback) Mile
    Okay!
[10:14] (Flashback) Mile
    Whoops! Little too soon
    to wake up there, baby.
[10:18] (Flashback) Mile
    No one's won this contest yet!
[10:20] Mile
    Or maybe Reina-san's realized I've
    been measuring her chest
[10:22] ---
    while she's sleeping, then feeling relieved?
[10:35] (Flashback) Mile
    Her art is the best!
[10:37] Mile
    It couldn't be that Mavis-san knows I've
    been secretly reading her picture diary?
[10:41] Nano
    You're guilty of quite a bit,
     aren't you, Mile-sama?
[10:44] Mile
    What do I do? At this rate, I'll...
[10:50] Reina
    Don't hit the face.
[10:51] Reina
    Go for the body.
[10:53] Pauline
    Gotcha, boss.
[10:55] Pauline
    Hey! Whaddaya think you're lookin' at?
     You think you're better than us?
[10:58] Mile
    Wh-What have I done?
[11:01] Mile
    I haven't done anything to make you angry...
[11:04] Mile
    Oh! I just need to jump, right? I'll jump.
[11:10] Mile
    You see? I don't have any money.
[11:14] Mavis
    We've never liked you.
[11:16] Mavis
    Going around, acting like an honors student...
    Who d'you think you are?
[11:19] Reina
    Don't go getting cocky just 'cuz you're
    the only one who's got a previous life!
[11:23] Girls
    Don't get cocky!
[11:24] Reina
    Let's go.
[11:29] Mile
    Why is this happening to me?
[11:32] Mile
    O God! I can't see your face for the tears!
[11:38] Nano
    What a handful.
[11:40] Nano
    Then why don't you just
    go and ask them directly?
[11:49] Mile
    How am I supposed to ask them anything?
[11:51] Mile
    I can't just say, "Hey guys!
    Why are you leaving me out?"
[11:56] Reina
    What is this strange sense of tension?
[11:59] Mavis
    This is why I'm no good with secrets.
[12:02] Pauline
    We just need to hang in there until next week.
[12:04] Pauline
    We have to stay strong until we
    have enough money for her present!
[12:09] Mile
    U-Um!
[12:14] Mile
    Uh... The weather was nice today, wasn't it?
[12:18] Reina
    Y-Yes, it was. Very nice weather.
[12:27] Lenny
    Thank you for your patronage!
[12:29] Lenny
    Hope you come to see us again soon!
[12:33] Mile
    Hey! Hey, Lenny-chan!
[12:34] Mile
    Have Reina-san or the others
    said anything about me?
[12:38] Lenny
    Reina-san or the others? About you, Mile-san?
[12:42] Mile
    Yes!
[12:43] Mile
    If you tell me, I promise
    I won't say anything, Lenny-chan.
[12:46] Mile
    Complaints, insults,
    or anything else! Just tell me!
[12:50] Mile
    Please?
[12:50] Lenny
    Complaints?
[12:52] Lenny
    I haven't heard anything...
[12:55] Lenny
    What should I do?
[12:57] Lenny
    They made me swear not to say anything,
    no matter what Mile-san asked.
[13:02] Mile
    Oh! Do you not want to say
    because you feel bad for me?
[13:05] Mile
    Don't worry! I'm fine!
[13:07] Mile
    Despite how I look,
    I'm pretty strong emotionally.
[13:09] Lenny
    That's a lie. She doesn't
    seem like that type at all!
[13:14] Mile
    Bring it on!
[13:16] Lenny
    What are you saying?
[13:17] Lenny
    I wouldn't hide things from you, would I?
[13:23] Lenny
    Well... I'll just be going now.
[13:26] Mile
    Lenny-chan, we've been friends since before
    I went to the Hunter School, right?
[13:30] Mile
    And I was the one who said we should
    make this our base after graduation.
[13:34] Mile
    I was the one who taught everyone how
    to behave while working in a maid café.
[13:37] Mile
    And the baths!
[13:38] Mile
    We could have just moved to a different inn,
[13:40] Mile
    but I convinced everyone
    that we should build baths
[13:43] ---
    at this inn with our earnings
    from working as the Crimson Vow!
[13:46] Mile
    Pauline-san is so opinionated about money.
[13:48] ---
    Do you have any idea how hard that was?
[13:50] Lenny
    No!
[13:51] Lenny
    I'm sorry! I'm busy with work!
[13:55] Mile
    Even Lenny-chan is...
[13:56] Nano
    Mile-sama, what on earth are you doing?
[14:00] Mile
    Oh! Could it be...

[14:13] Pauline
    There you have it. Thank you for
    your service thus far, Mile-chan.
[14:16] Mile
    What?
[14:17] Mavis
    Congratulations.
[14:18] ---
    Starting today, you're an average girl,
     just like you always wanted.
[14:22] Mile
    W-Wait! Why am I suddenly
    graduating from the group?
[14:26] Mile
    Even adding Lenny-chan, couldn't we
     just work as a group of five?

    Isn't it obvious?

[14:50] Mile
    Burned through with nothing left...
    but white ash.
[14:54] Mile
    Old man... Hey, old man...
[14:56] Nano
    Who are you calling "old man"?
[14:58] Mile
    Help me get my gloves off...
[15:00] Nano
    You're not wearing any.
[15:02] Mile
    Is Youko here?
[15:03] Mile
    I want you to take these guys...
    I want you to have them.
[15:08] Nano
    Who are you talking to?
[15:16] Mavis
    Once we obtain this cockatrice,
    our mission will finally be complete.
[15:21] Pauline
    We managed to make it in time for today.
[15:24] Pauline
    And as for the accessory we were eyeing...
[15:25] ---
    After we clear this quest,
    we should be able to buy it.
[15:29] Reina
    I wonder what Mile's face will look
    like when we throw her a celebration.
[15:33] Reina
    You think she'll be so moved she starts crying?
[15:41] Mile
    Hmph...
[15:42] Mile
    Fine, then.
[15:43] Mile
    If they're going to ignore me,
    then I'll do things on my own, too.
[15:46] Mile
    I'll do this!
[15:51] Mile
    How d'you like that? I've made
    your Nendonaroids super ugly.
[15:55] Mile
    You get it now? You! You! You!
[16:00] Mile
    What am I doing?
[16:03] Nano
    Exactly what I was wondering.
[16:05] Nano
    Instead of pointlessly fleeing from reality,
[16:07] Nano
    if it bothers you, shouldn't you
     go talk with them?
[16:10] Mile
    I told you! I can't ask them that!
[16:13] Nano
    Mile-sama...
[16:15] Mile
    I'm scared. What if Reina-san and the
    others really say they don't need me?
[16:22] Mile
    What if they're out there right now,
    having fun, just the three of them...
[16:26] Mile
    What do I do?
[16:37] Nano
    What are you talking about?
[16:39] Nano
    That will never happen.
[16:41] Mile
    Y-You think so?
[16:43] Nano
    Yes!
[16:44] Nano
    There's no way Reina-dono and the
    others could possibly abandon
[16:48] ---
    such an unpredictable and comedic character.
[16:49] Mile
    I don't think that's a compliment.
[16:59] Mavis
    We're not getting beaten now,
    not after we've come so far!
[17:01] Pauline
    Of course not!
[17:02] Pauline
    We need to complete this
    quest for the gift budget!
[17:06] Reina
    Wait for us, Mile!
[17:12] Mile
    Guys?
[17:22] Reina
    We did it!
[17:23] Mavis
    Yeah!
[17:25] Girls
    Mission complete!
[17:27] Mile
    Guys!
[17:31] Reina
    Mile!
[17:32] Mile
    Th...
[17:33] Mile
    That's so mean!
[17:35] Mile
    How could you go take jobs
    as Hunters without me?
[17:37] Mile
    You're leaving me behind! Just the three
    of you, laughing and giggling...
[17:42] Pauline
    Laughing and giggling?
[17:44] Reina
    I-It's not like that, Mile.
[17:46] Reina
    We have reasons for...
[17:48] Mile
    You really don't need me?
[17:51] Mile
    Is this the problem of the rotten mikan?
[17:53] Mile
    Are you firing me and calling it "graduation"?
[17:55] Reina
    I have no idea what you're talking about!
[17:58] Pauline
    It's okay, just calm down.
[17:59] Mavis
    Mile, behind you! Behind you!
[18:01] Mile
    Is having bigger boobs really so much better?
[18:03] ---
    Is being flat so wrong?
[18:09] Mile
    Pipe down!
[18:15] Mile
    I trusted you!
[18:18] Mile
    I'm part of the Crimson Vow, too, aren't I?
[18:23] Pauline
    Oh dear... She's crying.
[18:26] Reina
    This isn't what I was hoping for.
[18:35] Mile
    Oh, is that what it was?
[18:38] Mile
    You were doing all that for me?
[18:40] Mile
    You should have just said
    so from the beginning.
[18:43] Reina
    If we did that, we wouldn't be
    able to surprise you, would we?
[18:47] Mavis
    But since Mile burned that
    cockatrice to a crisp,
[18:50] ---
    all our work so far went up in smoke.
[18:52] Pauline
    It's too bad.
[18:54] ---
    Just a little more, and we'd have
    been able to buy that accessory.
[18:57] Mile
    Accessory? What are you talking about?
[19:01] Girls
    Huh?
[19:02] Reina
    See? It's that, right?
    The thing you want, Mile.
[19:06] Mavis
    That's why we worked so hard to earn money.
[19:09] Mavis
    It's quite a costly item.
[19:11] Mile
    Y-You've got it all wrong!
[19:13] Mile
    That's not my taste at all!
[19:15] ---
    That shiny, ostentatious display of wealth...
[19:18] Pauline
    What? Really?
[19:19] Mile
    I think, probably, what I was looking at was...
[19:23] Mile
    Over here!
[19:25] Pauline
    What pretty pendants. And
    priced quite reasonably too.
[19:29] Mile
    Right?
[19:30] Mile
    I thought, if it were these, we might
    all be able to get matching ones.
[19:37] Reina
    Mile...
[19:39] Reina
    Honestly, you should have just
    said so from the beginning!
[19:42] Mile
    I'll do that next time.
[19:46] Nano
    These ladies sure like making
    things difficult, don't they?
[19:52] Reina
    Now...
[19:54] Reina
    In celebration of the 200th day
    since Mile met the three of us...
[19:59] Reina
    Cheers!
[20:00] Girls
    Cheers!
[20:06] Mavis
    Wow! This is pretty lavish.
[20:08] Pauline
    We worked hard and went all-out today.
[20:11] Lenny
    Don't hold back on the food!
    Eat as much as you want!
[20:14] Lenny
    Today's a special anniversary
    for all of you, after all!
[20:17] Mile
    Thank you, Lenny-chan!
[20:19] Mavis
    That's right.
[20:21] Mavis
    If it's the anniversary of
    Mile meeting us, then...
[20:24] Mavis
    It also means it's the anniversary
    of the four of us meeting, right?
[20:29] Pauline
    Why are you saying something
    so obvious now, of all times?
[20:31] Mavis
    Well, somehow, I didn't realize that.
[20:35] Mavis
    I got completely swept up in Reina's fervor
    about throwing a celebration for Mile.
[20:39] Pauline
    I got swept up in Reina's fervor, too.
[20:42] Reina
    What are you talking about?
    You guys were excited, too!
[20:46] Mile
    Reina-san!
[20:47] Mile
    This celebration is all
    thanks to you, isn't it?
[20:52] Mile
    I'm so moved!
[20:54] Reina
    Wha? Wait! Mile! Cut that out!
[20:55] Pauline
    I'm so happy for you, Reina.
[20:57] Mavis
    She's crying with joy, just as you'd hoped.
[21:00] Reina
    Okay! I get it already!
[21:02] Reina
    Honestly...
[21:05] Mile
    But, you know, I was really
    anxious there for a while.
[21:09] Mile
    I thought maybe Reina-san had realized
    I've been measuring her chest
[21:11] ---
    in the middle of the night.
[21:13] Reina
    What?
[21:14] Mile
    I was so worried that's
    why you all hated me now.
[21:19] Mile
    The way I steal the snacks
    Pauline-san's hidden away...
[21:23] Mile
    Or maybe Mavis-san had found out
    I read her picture diary...
[21:28] Mile
    But I'm so glad it was all
    just a misunderstanding.
[21:31] Mile
    This is what they mean when they
    say "adversity builds character."
[21:36] Mile
    To think that Pauline-san, who immediately
    notices when money goes missing,
[21:39] ---
    didn't notice cookies going missing.
[21:42] Mile
    It's a weakness I never expected!
[21:45] Lenny
    Dad! Mom! Hold the food!
[21:48] Nano
    This is certain to become the
    anniversary of a tragedy.
[21:52] Reina
    What do you mean by that?
[21:54] Pauline
    Perhaps you'd like to tell us in detail.
[21:57] Mavis
    Tonight looks to be a long night.
[22:00] Mile
    Huh?
[22:03] Girls
    Mile!
[22:05] Mile
    I'm so sorry!
SIGN    Didn't I Say to Make My Abilities
    Average in the Next Life?!
