[00:03] Reimi
    Good morning, Aoi-san.
[00:06] Aoi
    Good morning, my lady.
[00:11] Aoi
    You have a chat session scheduled with your
    parents tonight at nine o'clock.
[00:16] Reimi
    Right.
[00:17] Aoi
    I packed your gym clothes in here.
[00:20] Reimi
    I'm off!
[00:21] Aoi
    Have a fine day.
[00:47] OP
    A gentle breeze carries your feelings to me
[00:58] OP
    so I feel like you're touching me
[01:05] OP
    I feel you, so I heal you
[01:11] OP
    I guess everyone must be connected
[01:17] OP
    That's why it feels like the sky
    deep in our hearts is blue and clear
[01:26] OP
    I sing because when the
    melody carrying my wishes
[01:33] OP
    and the words carrying my feelings reach you
[01:39] OP
    I want them to resonate in our joined hearts
[01:46] OP
    I'm sending healing harmony to you
[01:49] OP
    The music draws close to you
[02:04] OP
    Just like when I sing together
    with you... I feel you
SIGN    "Daphne and Apollo, a Miracle Encounter"
     Making Their Overseas Tour a Success
[02:17] Kana
    Look at this!
[02:18] Kana
    It's Reimi-chan's parents!
SIGN    Opera World
[02:21] Hibiki
    "Daphne and Apollo, a Miracle Encounter,
     Overseas Tour a Success."
[02:25] Hibiki
    "Fantastic reviews from critics!"
[02:27] Kana
    That's awesome!
[02:28] Hibiki
    Congratulations!
[02:29] Reimi
    It's not that big a deal.
[02:31] Kana
    Your parents are just so awesome, though!
[02:34] Reimi
    You haven't even met them.
[02:35] Shoko
    Have they been on their
    overseas tour for a long time?
[02:37] Reimi
    They primarily live overseas.
[02:39] Kana
    Living it up!
[02:40] Reimi
    Working.
[02:42] Hibiki
    If they'd decided to go into
    vocal medicine instead,
[02:44] Hibiki
    they could have become incredible healers!
[02:49] Reimi
    I wonder.
[02:55] Aoi
    I have awaited your return.
[02:57] Kana
    It's Aoi-san, the maid!
[02:59] Aoi
    We did meet briefly at the
    track meet, didn't we?
[03:02] Hibiki
    Allow me to introduce myself.
    I'm Hibiki Morishima.
[03:05] Kana
    I'm Kana Fujii, and I love maids!
[03:07] Aoi
    I'm afraid it's just a side job.
[03:08] Kana
    I love them even more with cat ears!
[03:10] Aoi
    If you like, I could—
[03:11] Reimi
    You don't have to do anything she says.
[03:13] Hibiki
    Kana-chan really does love maids!
[03:16] Kana
    I just think their uniforms are so cute!
[03:18] Kana
    And Aoi-san, you look perfect in yours!
[03:20] Aoi
    Thank you.
[03:22] Aoi
    Please, right this way.
[03:23] Aoi
    Everything is ready for you.
[03:26] Aoi
    A full course meal of Italian-style seafood.
[03:31] Kana
    It's delicious!
[03:32] Hibiki
    It's so good...
[03:34] Hibiki
    On par with the five-star restaurant
    that Ria-san took me to once!
[03:38] Hibiki
    Maybe it's actually from them?
[03:40] Kana
    Your cooking is amazing, Aoi-san!
[03:42] Aoi
    Oh, I fear it's not mine.
[03:45] Reimi
    She plays the piano. She has
    to take care of her fingers.
[03:49] Aoi
    I ordered it from a restaurant
    frequented by the Itsushiro family.
[03:52] Hibiki
    Bingo!
[03:53] Aoi
    Dinner is usually far more simple,
[03:55] Aoi
    but I decided to make the arrangements.
[03:57] Reimi
    And it's very delicious.
[03:59] Aoi
    Thank you very much.
[04:00] Reimi
    I can't imagine life without you, Aoi-san!
[04:04] Aoi
    Surely you exaggerate...
[04:05] Hibiki
    You're such good friends!
[04:07] Hibiki
    It must be nice to have a big sister!
[04:08] Aoi
    I was led to believe that you have a
    rather large family, Morishima-sama.
[04:12] Hibiki
    I'm the oldest, so I'd love
    a big sister of my own!
[04:15] Aoi
    I see.
[04:16] Kana
    And I'd love a maid of my own!
[04:19] Aoi
    I'm happy to be of service.
[04:22] Both
    Reimi-chan! Can you lend us Aoi-san?!
[04:24] Reimi
    What in the world?
[04:26] Aoi
    You're exactly how she described you.
[04:29] Both
    Describe us?
[04:30] Aoi
    She speaks of you quite often.
[04:33] Aoi
    Regarding Hibiki-sama, she says that
    you hold your high notes well,
[04:36] Aoi
    and that she greatly respects you.
[04:38] Hibiki
    Wait, hang on a minute!
[04:39] Aoi
    About Kana-sama, she says
[04:41] Aoi
    that you have the energy of a small child.
[04:43] Kana
    Hold on a minute!
[04:44] Kana
    I'm desperate for praise!
[04:47] Kana
    Try to think of something!
[04:49] Reimi
    What's the big deal?
[04:50] Reimi
    It's nothing I would ever say to your face.
[04:53] Aoi
    She certainly does praise you.
[04:55] Kana
    Oh?!
[04:56] Kana
    What does she say? What does she say?
[04:57] Aoi
    Last night she said—
[05:00] Kana
    C'mon, tell me!
[05:02] Reimi
    Aoi-san, you know what not to do!
[05:03] Kana
    That's power harassment!
[05:05] Reimi
    She receives a sizable salary, you know.
[05:07] Reimi
    And besides, Aoi-san and I are family.
[05:10] Reimi
    She's always on my side!
[05:14] Kana
    Hibiki-chan! Say something!
[05:16] Hibiki
    Like what?
[05:21] Kana
    If she's really family,
[05:22] Kana
    why do you make Aoi-san do
    the housework all by herself?
[05:26] Kana
    I didn't say it. Hibiki-chan did!
[05:29] Hibiki
    Kana-chan, you're acting like a little boy.
[05:32] Kana
    Not even a girl?!
[05:34] Kana
    But you might be right!
[05:36] Reimi
    You don't understand anything.
    But I certainly can do that.
[05:39] Reimi
    Aoi-san, I'll handle the cleanup today.
[05:42] Aoi
    Very well.
[05:44] Reimi
    I'll show you how easily I can
    handle housework when I try!
[05:49] Shoko
    She couldn't handle it.
[05:50] Hibiki
    Indeed.
[05:51] Reimi
    I wasn't expecting that much lather!
[05:54] Kana
    It's all right.
[05:55] Kana
    Everyone has things they aren't good at!
[05:59] Nakama
    Just like me! Just like me!
SIGN    Just like me
SIGN    Just like me
[06:03] kana
    You're so cute when you're depressed.
[06:07] Ria
    Sounds like we're having fun in here.
[06:08] Kana
    Mistress!
[06:10] Hibiki
    Ria-san, is there anything you
    aren't particularly good at?
[06:15] Ria
    I can't think of anything.
[06:16] Kana
    That's our mistress!
[06:18] Shoko
    Your cooking kind of stinks.
[06:20] Ria
    Well...
[06:24] Shoko
    One of the reasons she took
    you in, Hibiki, was your cooking.
[06:27] Hibiki
    Is that true?
[06:29] Ria
    There was more to it than that, of course.
[06:31] Shoko
    She didn't deny it!
[06:33] Kana
    Reimi-chan, it isn't just us!
[06:35] Kana
    Mistress is the same way too!
[06:36] Reimi
    I don't mind being associated with Mistress.
[06:38] Reimi
    But an association with
    Kana is a problem for me.
[06:41] Kana
    What's that supposed to mean?
[06:42] Reimi
    I've made up my mind.
[06:43] Reimi
    I will prove that there is nothing
    Reimi Itsushiro can't do!
[06:47] Hibiki
    I'll help!
[06:48] Reimi
    I'm counting on you, Hibiki!
[06:50] Kana
    And I'll cheer you on!
[06:51] Trio
    Yeah!
[06:53] Ria
    Itsushiro-san is going to cook?
[06:56] Shoko
    She wants to get good at housework, she said.
[06:58] Reimi
    And so, you don't have to do any
    of the cleaning this weekend.
[07:02] Reimi
    Don't interfere, Aoi-san!
[07:07] Instructor
    Aoi-san.
[07:08] Instructor
    Listen. Let's begin.
[07:10] Aoi
    Yes, let's.
[07:13] Reimi
    Laundry, handled!
[07:15] Reimi
    Cleaning, handled!
[07:16] Reimi
    Drying—
[07:24] Reimi
    Whoops!
[07:28] Reimi
    Actually getting it done
    properly really is trying.
[07:32] Reimi
    Aoi-san's fingers are so important
    to her, yet she does all this?
[07:38] Reimi
    Any mail today?
[07:40] Reimi
    From overseas?
[07:41] Reimi
    For Aoi-san?
[07:43] Reimi
    J-Jonathan Kurtz?! No way!
[07:45] Reimi
    Aoi-san! You just got an
    airmail from Jonathan Kurtz!
[07:49] Reimi
    No, maybe I'll surprise
    her when she gets home!
[07:53] Reimi
    I wonder how she'll react!
[07:55] Reimi
    She'll be so happy to get a letter
    from a pianist she admires so much!
[08:01] Reimi
    It would be fun to hand it to her,
[08:02] Reimi
    but it might also be fun to see how she
    reacts if she just stumbles onto it!
[08:20] Reimi
    What is all this?
[08:23] Instructor
    That's all for today.
[08:25] Aoi
    Thank you for everything.
[08:37] Aoi
    My lady?
[08:38] Aoi
    Oh, there you are.
[08:41] Aoi
    What's the matter? Why are
    you sitting in the dark?
[08:44] Reimi
    I'm sorry. I found them in your room.
[08:49] Reimi
    You got one today.
[08:52] Reimi
    A letter from Jonathan Kurtz...
    the pianist you always said you loved.
[08:58] Reimi
    He gave you a referral to study at Gabriel
    School of Music in the USA, right?
[09:04] Reimi
    But you turned him down.
[09:06] Aoi
    Yes.
[09:10] Reimi
    But look at how he's falling
    over himself for you!
[09:14] Reimi
    "Miss Aoi. You are magnificent!
[09:17] Reimi
    I'm desperate to teach you!"
[09:19] Reimi
    He's sent so many enthusiastic invitations!
[09:23] Reimi
    And you're still turning him down?
[09:25] Aoi
    Yes.
[09:26] Reimi
    Why?
[09:29] Reimi
    You might never get a chance like this again.
[09:33] Reimi
    You have to take him up on it!
[09:38] Reimi
    Why?
[09:48] Reimi
    In the letters, he said, "I understand it
    can be hard to leave your family behind."
[09:55] Reimi
    Am I the reason?
[09:57] Aoi
    No!
[09:58] Reimi
    Am I tying you down?
[10:02] Reimi
    Studying abroad was your dream!
[10:09] Reimi
    You're fired.
[10:15] Reimi
    If family is the reason
[10:19] Reimi
    you'd pass up on a chance
[10:23] Reimi
    to make your dream come true
[10:25] Reimi
    then you need to leave
[10:31] Reimi
    We're not family anymore.
[10:36] Reimi
    Go on.
[10:58] Kana
    You threw Aoi-san out?
[11:01] Reimi
    As I found it quite easy
    to do the housework myself,
[11:03] Reimi
    I decided I didn't need her anymore.
[11:05] Kana
    You found it... easy?
[11:07] Reimi
    What's the problem? I'm going to get better!
[11:10] Reimi
    And I'm converting her room into storage,
[11:13] Reimi
    so there's no place for her there anymore.
[11:15] Kana
    No matter what Reimi-chan claims,
[11:17] Kana
    it's weird to just kick
    someone out like that.
[11:19] Kana
    Something must be behind it!
[11:20] Hibiki
    Yeah...
[11:21] Aoi
    Excuse me.
[11:23] Kana
    Aoi-san?
[11:26] Aoi
    I'm sorry to bother you.
    Could I have a moment of your time?
[11:31] Hibiki
    Is that what happened?
[11:32] Kana
    Because you turned down the referral?
[11:35] Aoi
    It's just a little fight.
[11:37] Hibiki
    It didn't look like "just a fight" to me...
[11:39] Kana
    Something's off.
[11:43] Aoi
    Is my lady eating properly?
[11:45] Hibiki
    Well...
[11:47] Kana
    She's trying her best.
[11:48] Aoi
    I see.
[11:53] Kana
    Do you mind if I ask why you
    turned down the referral?
[11:58] Hibiki
    We really would like
    to know, if you don't mind.
[12:02] Aoi
    It was about three years ago,
[12:05] Aoi
    shortly after I came to work
    for the Itsushiro family.
[12:09] Reimi's father
    Sorry to miss another year.
[12:10] Reimi's father
    I know your birthday's coming up...
[12:12] (Flashback) Reimi
    It's all right. You have work.
[12:14] Reimi's mother
    We'll send you lots of
    presents to make up for it!
[12:17] Reimi's mother
    Keep an eye out, won't you?
[12:18] (Flashback) Reimi
    Yay! I can't wait!
[12:20] Reimi's father
    It's getting pretty late over here.
[12:22] Reimi's father
    We'll have to hang up now.
[12:33] Aoi
    Then, on the day of her birthday,
[12:35] Aoi
    she was surrounded by presents...
[12:39] Aoi
    But my lady didn't smile even once.
[12:44] Kana
    Because her parents are overseas...
[12:46] Hibiki
    You turned down the referral so
    that you could stay with her?
[12:50] Aoi
    My lady is still a minor.
[12:53] Aoi
    It would be improper to leave her on her own.
[12:54] Hibiki
    But Reimi-chan is mad at you, isn't she?
[12:57] Hibiki
    I think she wanted you to take the referral!
[13:00] Aoi
    I have a responsibility.
[13:03] Hibiki
    Aoi-san!
[13:07] Reimi
    She gave me so many things.
[13:10] Reimi
    On that day, too...
[13:13] Reimi
    Cake.
[13:14] Reimi
    Candles.
[13:15] Reimi
    Joy.
[13:17] Reimi
    Family who could spend time with me.
[13:20] Reimi
    And most of all...
[13:23] (Flashback) Aoi
    I'm going to support your singing.
[13:27] (Flashback) Aoi
    No matter what happens, don't give up.
SIGN    I will always support you, my lady!
     Rah! Rah!
[13:33] Reimi
    She always watched over me.
[13:38] Reimi
    But...
[13:42] Aoi
    But I still have a responsibility.
[13:44] (Flashback) Reimi's father
    You want to see the world
    with us, don't you, Reimi?
[13:47] (Flashback) Reimi's father
    As a singer.
[13:49] (Flashback) Reimi's father
    Would you like to start in spring?
[13:52] (Flashback) Reimi's mother
    Why don't we wait until she
    graduates elementary school?
[13:55] (Flashback) Reimi's father
    Sooner is better, isn't it?
[13:57] (Flashback) Reimi
    I...
[14:00] (Flashback) Reimi's father
    Are you still on that thing
    about become a healer?
[14:03] (Flashback) Reimi
    But...
[14:05] (Flashback) Aoi
    I think Reimi-chan would be
    the world's greatest healer!
[14:10] (Flashback) Aoi's mother
    Aoi-san, you can't go filling her head...
[14:13] (Flashback) Aoi
    Right?
[14:16] (Flashback) Reimi
    Yeah!
[14:21] Aoi
    I can't leave her all alone now.
[14:25] Reimi
    Kana. Hibiki.
[14:28] Reimi
    I have a favor to ask you.
SIGN    I need to talk to you.
SIGN    Come eat dinner with me.
[14:34] Aoi
    Dinner?
[14:37] Reimi
    Welcome to the Itsushiro
    family dinner party!
[14:41] Reimi
    You are our dearly welcome guest!
[14:45] Aoi
    Isn't the whole house wonderfully clean?
[14:46] Aoi
    Dinner party?
[14:49] Aoi
    Yes, it looks very clean.
[14:50] Aoi
    Now, come on in!
[14:53] Aoi
    When I buckle down on cleaning,
[14:57] Aoi
    I can do it flawlessly!
[14:59] Aoi
    Look over here now!
[15:00] Aoi
    Right...
[15:01] Aoi
    A homemade dinner! I pulled
    out all the stops to make it!
[15:07] Aoi
    Help yourself!
[15:07] Aoi
    Thank you.
[15:09] Aoi
    Delicious, isn't it? It was easily done!
[15:12] Aoi
    Yes, it's quite incredible.
[15:13] Aoi
    I can handle absolutely
    everything on my own!
[15:17] Aoi
    We all knew I wouldn't be a child forever!
[15:22] Aoi
    That's clear now, right?
[15:22] Aoi
    The ingredients are all cut differently...
[15:25] Aoi
    You're the guest of honor today, Aoi-san.
[15:25] Aoi
    Does that mean...
[15:29] Aoi
    So, please, eat all you like!
[15:30] Aoi
    Yes, I'm happy to.
[15:32] Aoi
    I prepared all of your favorites
[15:33] Kana
    You think she knows we helped her?
[15:35] Hibiki
    I'm not sure.
[15:36] Hibiki
    to show the gratitude I feel for you!
[15:38] Aoi
    The food was quite delicious.
[15:41] Aoi
    Because the reason I could
    follow my dream to be a healer
[15:45] Aoi
    was because of the one
    person who took my side...
[15:48] Aoi
    the person who encouraged me...
[15:54] Aoi
    That person was you!
[15:57] Aoi
    And now it's my turn to do the same...
[16:03] Aoi
    I was doing what was expected, as your elder.
[16:06] Aoi
    I cannot leave you all on your own.
[16:09] Aoi
    I will continue to be in your service.
[16:15] Reimi
    Listen to me! I'm angry with you!
[16:18] Reimi
    You gave me a path to my dreams.
[16:21] Reimi
    I'm really grateful to you!
[16:23] Reimi
    But does that mean the door to
    your own dreams has to close?
[16:27] Reimi
    Because of me?!
[16:29] Reimi
    You're giving up on your
    dream because of me?!
[16:33] Reimi
    Don't you dare! You have to be kidding me!
[16:37] Reimi
    You expect me to willingly
    embrace such ingratitude?
[16:45] Reimi
    How long has it been since we met?
[16:48] Aoi
    Six years.
[16:50] Reimi
    Within the first six years
    of life, a child learns to sing.
[16:54] Reimi
    I'm not the same person I was back then.
[16:57] Reimi
    I've begun training with Mistress.
[17:00] Reimi
    I became an assistant at a Phoniatric clinic.
[17:03] Reimi
    I have companions in my pursuit of my dream.
[17:07] Reimi
    So I'm no longer lonely.
[17:13] Reimi
    Now it's your turn.
[17:16] Reimi
    I will support your dream.
[17:20] Reimi
    So please, don't give up on it.
[17:33] Aoi
    Very well.
[17:36] Aoi
    I'll study abroad.
[18:18] Reimi
    Because you were always there
[18:22] Reimi
    Close and warm by my side
[18:26] Reimi
    I could set my sights on
    the future of my dreams,
[18:30] Reimi
    spread my childish wings,
[18:35] Reimi
    and fly there...
[18:50] Reimi
    From your fingers springs a song of kindness
[18:54] Reimi
    I locked it away in a cage!
[18:59] Reimi
    I'm sorry, I thank you...
[19:01] Reimi
    Now it's time for you to
    spread your wings too!
[19:09] Reimi
    The time has come to leave the nest
[19:13] Reimi
    But the echo of our shared
    song will never fade!
[19:18] Reimi
    Let's fly, free and high, into our sky...
[19:24] Reimi
    Together!
[19:31] Aoi
    The food was delicious.
[19:33] Reimi
    Well, of course it was!
[19:35] Aoi
    I'll come back for my things soon.
[19:38] Reimi
    I'm sure you'll have lots
    of preparations to make.
[19:40] Aoi
    Indeed.
[19:43] Aoi
    Well, I should be on my way.
[19:46] Reimi
    Sure.
[19:57] Kana
    Reimi-chan...
[20:02] Reimi
    Thank you, both of you.
[20:04] Reimi
    I appreciate all your help!
[20:06] Reimi
    Having a personal maid could
    be rather suffocating at times.
[20:11] Reimi
    I feel like a weight has
    dropped from my shoulders.
[20:14] Reimi
    I'm glad it happened.
[20:16] Reimi
    This was for the best.
[20:19] Reimi
    Yes, for the best!
[20:50] ED
    I realize now that everyone's
    heart has something in common
[21:01] ED
    The truth is, I can even
    feel that pain of yours
[21:12] ED
    I know the warmth of your hand on mine
[21:23] ED
    So I try to find something even I can do
[21:31] ED
    (We believe it like singing)
[21:34] ED
    I embrace my one tiny chance
[21:39] ED
    And the kindness of your wish
    to one day be by my side forever
[21:44] ED
    I can hear a precious voice saying,
    “Don't forget” (please remember)
[21:50] ED
    I want you to wish for a miracle just once
[21:56] ED
    (So we always sing a song of wish
[22:02] ED
    Our hearts are gazing at each other)
[22:09] Shoko
    Aoi-san left, then?
[22:12] Hibiki
    Yes.
[22:13] Shoko
    That explains the behavior.
[22:17] Ria
    We should interact with her like
    nothing's different, right?
[22:20] Ria
    It might take time, but...
[22:23] Kana
    How's your new assistant?
[22:26] Reimi
    I only call her in once a week.
[22:27] Kana
    Does she dress like a maid?
[22:28] Reimi
    Of course not!
[22:30] Hibiki
    Hey, is that...
[22:35] Reimi
    Aoi-san? What are you doing here?
[22:38] Aoi
    Professor Kurtz has taken a teaching job at
    a music college in Tokyo starting next month.
[22:44] Aoi
    So I'm back.
[22:47] Aoi
    But I already spent all my
    money getting over there...
[22:52] Aoi
    Do you think I might work for you again?
[22:55] Kana
    Reimi-chan! Isn't that great?
[22:59] Hibiki
    Reimi-chan?
[23:05] Reimi
    Honestly!
[23:06] Reimi
    You can have the storage room!
[23:09] Reimi
    You'll have to help me get
    it back to normal, though.
[23:12] Kana
    She can't admit she's happy.
[23:13] Hibiki
    Seriously.
[23:17] Reimi
    Welcome home!
[23:20] Aoi
    Glad to be back!

[23:25] Ria
    Concurrent surgeries?
[23:27] Mizore
    It was the request of the patient.
[23:29] Kana
    That's a big responsibility, huh?
[23:31] Shoko
    No worries!
[23:33] Shoko
    Ria wants you to assist.
[23:35] Hibiki
    Do you think we'll ever be like Mistress?
