[00:05] ---
    A dream?
[00:07] ---
    I'm not sure if I quite follow, Rika.
[00:12] ---
    I've been thinking about this
    for a long, long time.
[00:15] ---
    One day, when I'm finally able
    to leave the village on my own...
[00:19] ---
    I want to experience a new way of life--
    one I've never known before.
[00:26] ---
    I want to wake up in the morning
    and turn the page of the calendar,
[00:29] ---
    wondering just how the day will unfold.
[00:32] ---
    And when it does, my new reality
    will be as I never could have imagined:
[00:38] ---
    filled with wonder, splendor, and new surprises.
[00:42] ---
    I want to go to a school
    where I can live that life.
[00:46] ---
    Of course, I want to go there
    together with you, Satoko.
[00:49] ---
    I want to experience high society
    at a fancy school with you!
[00:55] ---
    I certainly understand why you dream
    of a fresh, new experience.
[01:01] ---
    Our games in club have been
    quite boring as of late.
[01:05] ---
    Even so...
[01:07] ---
    We have quite a while before we need
    to think about high school entrance exams!
[01:12] ---
    We've only just started middle school!
[01:14] ---
    It's far too early to begin
    worrying about those, don't you think?
[01:19] ---
    You just don't want to study
    for entrance exams, Satoko.
[01:23] ---
    Just thinking about studying
    gives you a big, big headache.
[01:26] ---
    "Study Guides"
    Just thinking about studying
    gives you a big, big headache.
[01:29] ---
    That is absolutely not the case!
[01:32] ---
    Studying is a breeze for me when I put in
    the smallest smidgeon of effort!
[01:38] ---
    And I know for a fact that you hate
    studying more than anyone!
[01:41] ---
    You're right. I really hate studying.
[01:47] ---
    But I was never allowed to leave Hinamizawa,
[01:51] ---
    or say I wanted to leave.
[01:55] ---
    Rika...
[01:56] ---
    So though I hate studying,
    I'm gonna work hard to make my dream come true.
[02:01] ---
    And if it's possible,
    I'd like you to share that dream with me.
[02:10] ---
    Aren't you as stubborn as ever, Rika?
[02:17] ---
    Very well! I suppose I'll join you.
[02:21] ---
    Really?!
[02:23] ---
    Indeed! I don't know if I'll be able
    to keep up with you for long,
[02:26] ---
    but I expect you'll throw in the towel
    not long after you start, yes?
[02:29] ---
    No way! I'm going to work hard
    and pass that exam!
[02:34] ---
    Let's crush it!
[02:41] ---
    Face forward! Bow!
[02:43] ---
    Goodbye, Sensei!
[02:48] ---
    Rika, we may have club today, but would...
[02:50] ---
    Chie.
[02:53] ---
    What is it, Furude-san?
[02:56] ---
    I need your help with something!
[03:00] ---
    Now, this problem looks hard at first glance,
[03:05] ---
    but if you use this formula...
[03:07] ---
    --See? It's simple!
    --Studying this hard after school is over
    cannot be good for her health.
[03:13] ---
    What's up with Rika-chan?
[03:15] ---
    She's studying for entrance exams.
[03:17] ---
    Huh? But those are a few years off, aren't they?
[03:21] ---
    I told her just as much.
[03:23] ---
    What school's she aiming for?
    The same one Mion's going to in Okinomiya?
[03:32] ---
    "St. Lucia Academy"
    St. Lucia Academy?
[03:36] ---
    "St. Lucia Academy"
    Where have I heard that before?
[03:39] ---
    I know! That's the one Shion went to!
[03:42] ---
    That's right. It's a boarding school
    for well-to-do young ladies.
[03:47] ---
    Young ladies, you say!
    Bet you'd fit right in there, Rika-chan.
[03:52] ---
    I love the architecture! It's sooo kyute!
[03:54] ---
    I fell in love with it
    the second I saw the pictures.
[03:58] ---
    But isn't this school for super rich families,
    like the Sonozakis?
[04:03] ---
    Irie says he'll pay for both
    Satoko and I to attend.
[04:10] ---
    Will the Coach's bank account
    be okay? I hope so...
[04:12] ---
    Wait, you're going too, Satoko?!
[04:14] ---
    My! While I'm unsure the academy
    will be a fit for a fine lady like myself,
[04:19] ---
    I simply could not turn down
    Rika's earnest request!
[04:23] ---
    We can argue about whether or not
    you're a "fine lady" later.
[04:26] ---
    You have to score really high
    on their test to get in.
[04:30] ---
    I could get a perfect score
    on that test in my sleep!
[04:36] ---
    I want to make this dream of mine
    come true, no matter what.
[04:40] ---
    So I'm hoping it's okay to ask
    the two of you to help me study.
[04:46] ---
    We'd be glad to help!
[04:48] ---
    Yeah! You can ask us
    any questions you might run into!
[04:52] ---
    You guys already do so much for me.
    I feel bad asking for more help.
[04:57] ---
    C'mon, don't sweat it.
[04:59] ---
    My old school was pretty rigorous.
    Now I can finally put that experience to work!
[05:04] ---
    Thank you!
[05:06] ---
    We're gonna train your brain, too, Satoko!
[05:09] ---
    N-Now, take it easy on me, if you please!
[05:12] ---
    Okay! Then for today's game,
    let's play endless English word chain!
[05:17] ---
    Yeah!
[05:18] ---
    Let's do it!
[05:20] ---
    Okay, let's get started!
[05:23] ---
    I'm sure her sudden passion
    for studying will not last long.
[05:42] ---
    Rika?
[05:53] ---
    Are you in the restroom?
[06:15] ---
    Rika?
[06:17] ---
    Satoko?
[06:19] ---
    So this is why you haven't been sleeping well.
[06:25] ---
    Whyever would you hide this from me?
[06:28] ---
    We're hoping to attend
    the same school, are we not?
[06:33] ---
    You're a formidable rival when
    you start to get serious, Satoko!
[06:39] ---
    You know I'll do anything
    to win any game or challenge!
[06:43] ---
    Same here!
[06:58] ---
    In the midst of the changing seasons
[07:04] ---
    Another star streaks across the sky
[07:09] ---
    An old song catches my ear
[07:14] ---
    melting into the evening breeze
[07:20] ---
    I remember the day when
    we discussed the futures we dreamed of

[07:30] ---
    I remember the warmth
    I felt when you were by my side

[07:36] ---
    I'll go with you,
    no matter where your path leads

[07:42] ---
    With the wind and our words at our backs,
    I'll sing along with you

[07:47] ---
    No matter how hard it gets,
    we can laugh about it together

[07:53] ---
    When tearful seasons come,
    we'll overcome it all

[07:58] ---
    The light leading us
    to tomorrow will paint the sky

[08:04] ---
    As the days, months,
    and years flow on and on

[08:10] ---
    I'll look up at the shooting stars
    and walk on by your side

[08:24] ---
    Satoko! Are you ready? It's time to head out!
[08:28] ---
    "Sunday, March 1st, 1987"
    Wait just a moment!
    There's no need for us to rush.
[08:34] ---
    I can't wait to find out!
[08:36] ---
    Hey! Rika!
[09:02] ---
    We're finally here.
[09:04] ---
    Did you bring your shrine charm with you?
[09:07] ---
    The results have already been posted.
    The charm would be of no use.
[09:13] ---
    I know, but still...
[09:17] ---
    We've given it our all for two and a half years.
[09:20] ---
    I'm sure everything is all right!
[09:24] ---
    Right, brace yourself, Rika!
[09:28] ---
    "Admitted Applicants"
[09:35] ---
    I got in!
[09:40] ---
    "St. Lucia Academy
    Applicant Number: 2421
    Name: Rika Furude"
[09:48] ---
    "Applicant Number: 3670"
[09:54] ---
    Did you get in?!
[09:58] ---
    Well done, Rika!
[10:01] ---
    I always knew you would get in, of course.
[10:04] ---
    I know.
[10:06] ---
    It's your turn now, Satoko.
[10:11] ---
    What if... and this is only hypothetical!
[10:16] ---
    What if I'm the only one who didn't get in?
[10:20] ---
    If I didn't, then we'll have
    to go our separate ways.
[10:24] ---
    That's never going to happen!
[10:27] ---
    Y-You're right! Besides, I would never
    let you show me up like this.
[10:32] ---
    That's the spirit!
[10:36] ---
    I'll jog over and take a look!
[10:40] ---
    "Admitted Applicants"
[10:44] ---
    There's no way I didn't get in!
[10:46] ---
    I worked myself to death for this moment!
[10:49] ---
    I hate studying,
    but I still gave it everything I had!
[11:01] ---
    All because I couldn't bear the thought
    of being away from Rika...
[11:07] ---
    No...
[11:09] ---
    Satoko?
[11:20] ---
    I got in!
[11:34] ---
    St. Lucia Academy places
    great importance upon not only academics,
[11:39] ---
    but etiquette, eloquence,
    and a dignified manner of being.

    but etiquette, eloquence,
    and a dignified manner of being.
[11:43] ---
    "51st Annual Entrance Ceremony"
    All of these qualities
    will make you fine young women.
[11:45] ---
    All of these qualities
    will make you fine young women.
[11:50] ---
    As students at St. Lucia Academy,
    you must strive to uphold these values
[11:57] ---
    to avoid sullying the good name
    of our institution.
[12:03] ---
    --Indeed, our current students and
    your seniors maintain these traditions...
[12:04] ---
    --How much longer will this dreadfully
    boring speech continue on for?
    --Indeed, our current students and
    your seniors maintain these traditions...
[12:09] ---
    Don't get distracted!
[12:12] ---
    Thank goodness that's over!
[12:15] ---
    Had that dragged on longer, I would have
    sprung a few traps to liven things up!
[12:22] ---
    Poor, poor Satoko.
[12:24] ---
    If only Keiichi-san were our principal.
    His speech would have been captivating!
[12:30] ---
    Keiichi is a master wordsmith.
    He's on a completely different level.
[12:36] ---
    Good tidings to you.
[12:37] ---
    Good tidings to you.
[12:42] ---
    What a strange way to say "hello."
[12:48] ---
    I should get back to my dorm room.
[12:51] ---
    As should I.
[12:53] ---
    Whyever did they put us in different dorms?
[12:57] ---
    We get to be in the same class, at least.
[12:59] ---
    True. I mustn't be selfish.
[13:02] ---
    I'll see you tomorrow, then!
[13:05] ---
    See you tomorrow!
[13:11] ---
    Good tidings to you.
[13:12] ---
    Good tidings to you.
[13:15] ---
    Rika's quite the capable actress, as always.
[13:44] ---
    Good morning, Ri--
[13:45] ---
    Take your seats.
[13:47] ---
    No personal conversation after the bell.
[14:24] ---
    Rika Furude-san,
    please lead us in ending the class.
[14:40] ---
    Please stand.
[14:42] ---
    Bow.
[14:44] ---
    Thank you very much, ma'am.
[14:50] ---
    Who knew class could be this exhausting?
[14:59] ---
    Rika-san, correct? You're so beautiful!
[15:03] ---
    If it's not any trouble, would you mind
    joining us in the parlor for tea?
[15:07] ---
    The parlor?
[15:08] ---
    I'm sure the older students would
    welcome you with open arms, Rika-san!
[15:12] ---
    Think of it as practice for when
    you enter high society. Will you join us?
[15:20] ---
    Go right ahead. I'm sure it will
    make for a great experience.
[15:26] ---
    You're s--
[15:28] ---
    Are you quite sure?
[15:30] ---
    Extremely sure! Come, let's be off!
[15:36] ---
    You should come, too, Satoko.
[15:38] ---
    Thank you for the invite, but I have
    no interest in such stuffy, formal affairs.
[15:44] ---
    Satoko...
[15:45] ---
    If you're interested, I'd love for you
    to join us in a rousing debate!
[15:54] ---
    She's living her dream.
[15:57] ---
    I should let her do as she pleases.
[15:59] ---
    That, and I'm sure she'll soon tire
    of this fanciful, overblown world.
[16:15] ---
    We're led to believe that no matter
    how fiercely we struggle and resist,
[16:22] ---
    we cannot change the result
    on the die that are cast.
[16:26] ---
    That is my definition of "fate."
[16:32] ---
    I'm always moved when I listen to
    your outlook on the world at large!
[16:38] ---
    Your skills at debate are
    absolutely unrivaled, Rika-san!
[16:41] ---
    I cannot believe we're the same age!
[16:52] ---
    Hojo-san.
[17:06] ---
    Whatever is the matter, Rika-san?
[17:09] ---
    Oh, nothing.
[17:17] ---
    Starting tomorrow, you must attend
    study hall after school.
[17:23] ---
    I need to study even harder?
[17:27] ---
    You already know why I'm telling you this, yes?
[17:30] ---
    Your grades have dropped dramatically
    since the first day of school.
[17:34] ---
    If they don't improve soon...
[17:37] ---
    I studied so hard to get here!
    I worked myself to death!
[17:41] ---
    Yet it still isn't enough?!
    I still need to work even harder?!
[17:45] ---
    You're missing my point.
    Nobody will force you to attend study hall.
[17:50] ---
    So I don't need to go after all, then?
[17:53] ---
    That's right.
[17:54] ---
    Then I simply won't! I hate study--
[17:59] ---
    You'll just need to come to the faculty office
[18:01] ---
    and submit your formal withdrawal
    from the Academy.
[18:04] ---
    What? Withdrawal?
[18:06] ---
    Yes, you can leave this institution.
    The choice is yours.
[18:31] ---
    Satoko?
[18:33] ---
    What is it?
[18:37] ---
    If you're having trouble with your studies,
    I'd be happy to help...
[18:50] ---
    My, don't belittle me so, Rika!
[18:53] ---
    You're not the only one
    who's become quite busy after school!
[18:57] ---
    Please, make no assumptions!
[19:01] ---
    What an unbecoming laugh.
[19:03] ---
    I can't believe a girl like that
    was considered fit to attend our Academy.
[19:08] ---
    Come, now, let us retire to the parlor!
[19:15] ---
    Yes, let's.
[19:17] ---
    "Study Hall"
[19:42] ---
    "St. Lucia Academy"
    "First Semester/Midterm
    Supplementary Practice Problems"
[20:08] ---
    Is this what it's going to be like
    every single day?
[20:11] ---
    You a first year?
[20:15] ---
    Yes, I am.
[20:16] ---
    Then there's still hope for you.
[20:19] ---
    Most of the girls here got
    pulled out of the Regular Class
[20:22] ---
    when they started their second year.
[20:25] ---
    Huh?
[20:26] ---
    Prestige matters more
    than anything to the Academy,
[20:30] ---
    so if you can't measure up, they won't
    allow you the honor of graduating.
[20:35] ---
    Plus, a lot of girls here are from
    well-to-do families, so they can't drop out.
[20:40] ---
    Not like we can either, with our parents
    paying this expensive tuition.
[20:47] ---
    Us struggling students have to spend
    all our time studying just to stay here.
[20:54] ---
    You'd better work hard.
[20:56] ---
    If you can get your grades up,
    then you'll be fine.
[20:59] ---
    If not, you'll get dropped down
    to the Special Class like the rest of us.
[21:04] ---
    The Special Class?
[21:06] ---
    If that happens,
[21:08] ---
    then kiss goodbye to the free time
    you have in the Regular Class.
[21:36] ---
    Tell me, Rika.
[21:39] ---
    Do you remember what you said to me?
[21:48] ---
    You said you wanted to experience
    this life together with me.
[21:52] ---
    That's what you said, yes?
[21:57] ---
    Tell me, Rika...
[22:00] ---
    What is...
[22:04] ---
    ...the meaning of this?
