[07:48] Mira     But... do they really have to compete? [07:52] Sara     Their reunion was so sudden     that it left Anna uncertain. [07:55] Sara     She's very stubborn, as you know.

[09:45] Emo     Why exactly is Akagi Anna mad at you? [09:48] Mel     Probably because Mel-Mel went away... SIGN    Three Years Ago [09:56] (Flashback) Mel     Today's PriChan was another huge success! [09:58] (Flashback) Sara     Yeah! It was a lot of fun too.

[10:39] (Flashback) Anna     If only I had a shooting star     of my own that would never fall... [10:43] (Flashback) Mel     A shooting star for An-An? [10:45] (Flashback) Anna     If we could get our own shining star,     Meltic StAr could shine ever brighter! [10:51] (Flashback) Anna     Don't you think so, Sara? [10:53] (Flashback) Sara     I certainly do, Anna. [10:54] (Flashback) Mel     Meltic StAr could shine ever brighter? [10:59] Mel     So Mel-Mel went looking for a     shooting star that would never fall, [11:03] Mel     and then I found this... [11:06] Mel     Mel-Mel did it for An-An...

[11:55] Rin     The White Team will be     performing their flag dance. [11:57] Mira     Let's go, everyone! [12:10] (Flashback) Mira     It seems like Anna-chan's upset that     Mel-chan left without saying anything. [12:14] (Flashback) Mira     She said she left to find her a star, but... [12:16] (Flashback) Emo     What is that even supposed to mean? [12:19] (Flashback) Emo     It makes no sense. [12:21] (Flashback) Mira     I wonder if we can help somehow. [12:23] (Flashback) Rin     Why don't we give them a chance      to talk it out during an event? [12:27] (Flashback) All     Yeah. [12:32] ---     Yay! [12:35] ---     Yay! [12:38] Sara     Anna...

[13:35] Mira     Anna-chan's the anchor for the Red Team, [13:37] Mira     just like we expected. [13:38] Rin     Sara-chan already agreed to our plan. [13:40] Emo     Then all that's left is... [13:42] ---     Yeah. [13:44] Emo     Mel! [13:45] Mel     What is it? [13:46] Emo     This is the final event. [13:48] Rin     Let's show Anna-chan how you really feel! [13:51] Mira     Yeah! Your heart will     reach her with a sparkle. [13:55] Mel     A sparkle? [14:00] Mel     A sparkle... [14:03] Girl     On your marks! [14:05] Girl     Get set! [14:08] Anna     Mel left without a single word to me. [14:11] Anna     Yet she expects me to simply     welcome her back? [14:14] Anna     My pride shan't allow it! [14:24] Anna     Oh, so you're their anchor? [14:26] Anna     But I'm afraid our second runner     took an insurmountable lead. [14:30] Anna     Not even Mel could catch up to Sara now— [14:32] ---     An-An! [14:34] Anna     Did she overtake Sara?! [14:39] Anna     Why is Mel on the Red Team? [14:40] Mira     Sara-chan and Mel-chan switched places. [14:43] Mira     Because Mel-chan has something for you. [14:46] Anna     Something for me? [14:47] Mel     An-An! [14:50] Anna     I refuse to take it. [14:51] Mel     But then you'll lose. [14:53] Mel     Then, here. [14:55] Mel     Remember this? [14:58] (Flashback) Anna     What's this? [14:59] (Flashback) Mel     An-An's star! [15:02] (Flashback) Mel     See, when a shooting star burns up... [15:06] (Flashback) Mel     sometimes bits of it fall to the ground! [15:08] (Flashback) Sara     She had them sent here from the North Pole. [15:11] (Flashback) Mel     Now it won't disappear! [15:13] (Flashback) Anna     What a truly ignorant gesture. [15:15] (Flashback) Anna     You can't wish on stars      that aren't in the sky. [15:18] (Flashback) Mel     In the sky? [15:20] (Flashback) Anna     If it's not in the sky,     it's not my shooting star. [15:23] (Flashback) Anna     Of course, I'll still take one. For your sake. [15:27] Mel     That's why... [15:28] ---     I went searching for a star for you     that wouldn't fall. [15:31] Mel     I searched and searched...      and I finally found it! [15:36] Anna     D-Don't tell me you went      to America for that... [15:40] Mel     Anna, run! [15:41] Sara     Mel left for you, and she's returned for you! [15:45] Sara     Now's the time for Meltic StAr to run! [15:49] Sara     Mirai-kun! [15:49] ---     Yeah! [15:57] Mira     Do you see now?
