**[01:18] [SONG] Song**
If you could be reincarnated,
what kind of you would you like to be?
**[01:24] [SONG] Song**
If that's what you wish for, I'll cast a little spell
**[01:30] [SONG] Song**
If I were God, maybe I'd
make the whole world one
**[01:37] [SONG] Song**
But you know, that'd just be a boring fairytale
**[01:44] [SONG] Song**
I can hear your voice; don't forget your wish
**[01:49] [SONG] Song**
The sparkle that was created from
our uncertain selves being born
**[01:55] [SONG] Song**
Let's let it resonate loud and far
**[01:59] [SONG] Song**
Even if we're far apart
**[02:02] [SONG] Song**
I want to believe in the
future projected in your eyes
**[02:09] [SONG] Song**
I won't be afraid anymore;
I'll transcend the reason I was born
**[02:14] [SONG] Song**
I'll reach out toward tomorrow
and change the world
**[02:24] [SONG] Song**
Let's search for our destinies and link
**[02:30] [SONG] Song**
I connect with you
**[02:47] Miracle**
Wow! This video's always so great!
**[02:52] Miracle**
No matter how many times I see
it, it always cheers me up.
**[02:55] Miracle**
And I always start to imagine
**[02:57] Miracle**
what kind of performances AI-chan would
be doing if she were still here today.
**[03:02] Miracle**
And more than anything...
**[03:04] Miracle**
I want to be a virtual artist like AI-chan!
**[03:09] Miracle**
Someday I'll make that dream
come true, so stay tuned!
**[03:14] Miracle**
Let's end today on a high note!
**[03:18] Miracle**
Link up if you liked it~
**[03:18] Miracle**
Link up if you liked it!
**[03:21] Miracle**
This has been Miracle!
**[03:21] Miracle**
This has been Miracle! Bye-bye!
**[03:22] Miracle**
Bye-bye!
**[03:26] Miracle**
Another Euphoria
**[03:26] Miracle**
Another Euphoria
**[03:28] Miracle**
Good work today, me...
**[03:31] Miracle**
I had so much fun on today's stream.
**[03:40] Miracle**
People seemed to really enjoy it.
**[03:43] Miracle**
Huh?
**[03:44] Sign**
That was great!
**[03:44] Sign**
Great job~!
**[03:44] Sign**
Can't wait for next time!!
**[03:44] Sign**
I'll cheer you on!
**[03:45] Miracle**
Barely anybody watched it!
**[03:48] Miracle**
And I didn't get any new linkers!
**[03:52] Miracle**
I've got a long way to go
to catch up to Kizuna AI...
**[03:58] [SONG] OP**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[04:09] [SONG] OP**
The ground I stood on only looked distorted
**[04:14] [SONG] OP**
Because I saw it through tears of frustration
**[04:19] [SONG] OP**
But standing still isn’t like me!
**[04:23] [SONG] OP**
So I ran like crazy until I was out of breath
**[04:30] [SONG] OP**
No matter how many times I
get discouraged, I still love it
**[04:34] [SONG] OP**
I believe in my friends, and in
the me that’s chasing my dream
**[04:43] [SONG] OP**
Let our sparkling minds spout up
**[04:45] [SONG] OP**
Ride on this future wave!
We’ll go beyond this unstoppable thrill
**[04:50] [SONG] OP**
Race through with all our might
to find the sky we want to see
**[04:55] [SONG] OP**
Each time a dream comes true, the new “now”
is my new starting line, over and over without end
**[05:01] [SONG] OP**
Ride toward the future! The next step we take
**[05:06] [SONG] OP**
Will give rise to opportunity, as
much as all the courage we have
**[05:11] [SONG] OP**
Our shared wish binds us together
as we ride this tailwind
**[05:16] [SONG] OP**
How far can we go? With our hands linked tightly
**[05:21] [SONG] OP**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[05:53] Vanity**
Miracle-san! Miracle-san!
**[05:55] Vanity**
It's morning. Time to get up.
**[06:08] Miracle**
Just let me sleep a little more, Vanity.
**[06:13] Vanity**
Today is registered as an important
day on your calendar.
**[06:16] Vanity**
Shouldn't you get up?
**[06:18] Miracle**
That's right!
**[06:21] Miracle**
Sorry, Vanity.
**[06:22] Miracle**
Run a data check on today's classes for me.
**[06:25] Vanity**
Command received.
**[06:26] Vanity**
Today's primary elective is:
Virtual Artist, Performance Course.
**[06:32] Vanity**
You are one of the stage performers.
**[06:34] Miracle**
I know that.
**[06:35] Miracle**
That's why I wanted to get
to ADEN earlier than usual.
**[06:39] Miracle**
So? Does everything with the song look okay?
**[06:41] Vanity**
Yes. The song data has
been shared with ADEN.
**[06:47] Miracle**
I see. Excellent.
**[06:52] Miracle**
Uh oh. I think I'm getting a stomachache.
**[06:55] Vanity**
Are you alright?
**[06:57] Vanity**
I can arrange medical
attention if necessary.
**[06:59] Vanity**
If the cause is psychological, I can also
search for methods to relieve stress.
**[07:05] Miracle**
No, I'm fine.
**[07:07] Miracle**
I think it's just nerves.
**[07:10] Miracle**
I haven't done any performances in front
of everybody since coming to the school.
**[07:15] Miracle**
It's probably different
than a personal stream.
**[07:18] Miracle**
So it's like...
**[07:20] Miracle**
I'm just freaked out.
**[07:23] Vanity**
You're freaked out?
**[07:24] Miracle**
Yes.
**[07:25] Miracle**
But the me that's there is cooler
than the me that's here.
**[07:30] Miracle**
Yeah, that's right. So...
**[07:33] Miracle**
I'll just have to do my best!
**[07:51] Miracle**
Oops.
**[07:59] Miracle**
Was this path always here?
**[08:00] Miracle**
I've never used it before...
**[08:07] Miracle**
It looks like a shortcut!
**[08:17] Miracle**
H-Huh?
**[08:19] Miracle**
Did I screw up?
**[08:23] Miracle**
Can I just walk through the greenhouse?
**[08:30] Miracle**
I didn't know ADEN had a
big greenhouse like this.
**[08:33] Miracle**
This is surprising.
**[08:42] Miracle**
Can I get out the other side?
**[08:56] Miracle**
Tea?
**[09:01] Miracle**
It smells good!
**[09:19] Miracle**
*So handsome!*
**[09:22] Miracle**
Um, sorry for barging in...
**[09:26] Miracle**
What is this place?
**[09:31] Miracle**
*Drinking their tea instead of answering?*
**[09:34] Miracle**
*And really enjoying it, too!*
**[09:38] Miracle**
*Such long eyelashes!*
**[09:40] Miracle**
*Such a radiant person!*
**[09:43] Miracle**
*Practically shining with light!*
**[09:46] Quan**
Are you part of the fan club?
**[09:49] Miracle**
*Wh-What? What was that?*
**[09:54] Miracle**
Um... uh...
**[10:00] Miracle**
I'll be going.
**[10:02] Miracle**
Sorry for interrupting, I guess.
**[10:08] Miracle**
Cucumber herb!
**[10:10] Miracle**
I haven't seen any in forever! They're so tiny!
**[10:14] Quan**
Cucumber?
**[10:19] Quan**
You mean tabirako?
**[10:21] Miracle**
Is its name tabirako?
**[10:24] Miracle**
I've always called it cucumber herb.
**[10:28] Miracle**
If you rub the leaves they smell like cucumbers.
So I call them cucumber herb.
**[10:35] Miracle**
I really like these flowers!
**[10:38] Quan**
Even though they look so ordinary?
**[10:40] Miracle**
Yes!
**[10:41] Miracle**
That's weird, isn't it?
**[10:44] Miracle**
*You're not reacting at all!*
**[10:49] Quan**
Do you like tea?
**[10:51] Miracle**
I don't dislike it, I guess.
**[11:03] Quan**
Here.
**[11:08] Miracle**
Th-Thank you!
**[11:14] Miracle**
*I don't know what I'm doing here...*
**[11:17] Miracle**
*Should I say something?*
**[11:21] Miracle**
*I don't think I can!*
**[11:23] Miracle**
*I wouldn't know what to say...*
**[11:30] Miracle**
*It's delicious!*
**[11:35] Miracle**
*And it smells good...*
**[11:38] Miracle**
*It's...*
**[11:44] Miracle**
*It's such a strange feeling!*
**[11:54] Vanity**
Miracle-san! Miracle-san!
**[11:57] Vanity**
It's almost time for class.
**[11:59] Miracle**
Oh, wow! You're right!
**[12:04] Miracle**
Sorry, I have to go!
**[12:10] Quan**
Cucumber...
**[12:14] Miracle**
I've got to hurry!
**[12:16] Miracle**
I wonder who that person was...
**[12:18] Miracle**
No way! I'm late!
**[12:28] Wristband**
*Ready?*
**[12:54] Vanity-sensei**
And so as you can see,
the Virtual Grid Awards that began in 2025
**[13:00] Vanity-sensei**
became a goal for many virtual artists,
including the students here at ADEN.
**[13:06] Vanity-sensei**
To win the Lapin d'Or,
the VGA's most prestigious award,
**[13:09] Vanity-sensei**
it's important to not just
have great technical skills,
**[13:13] Vanity-sensei**
but to also connect with the
audience on an emotional level.
**[13:19] Vanity-sensei**
But such a performance is quite difficult.
**[13:25] Vanity-sensei**
The first recipient of the
Lapin d'Or, Kizuna AI,
**[13:28] Vanity-sensei**
was a better performer than anyone
in the world, despite being an AI.
**[13:34] Vanity-sensei**
You can tell because she has received
the Lapin d'Or five years running.
**[13:41] Miracle's Friend 1**
Sir?
**[13:42] Vanity-sensei**
Yes?
**[13:43] Miracle's Friend 1**
For me, I find a lot more to like in the
performance by the last Lapin d'Or winner, Ada,
**[13:49] Miracle's Friend 1**
than in Kizuna AI's work.
**[13:53] Miracle's Friend 2**
Me, too!
**[13:55] Miracle's Friend 3**
I guess I like Ada more than her, yeah.
**[13:58] Sign**
Ada
**[13:58] Sign**
AI
**[13:58] Sign**
Ada
**[13:58] Sign**
Ada
**[13:58] Sign**
AI
**[13:59] Sign**
Ada
**[14:00] Sign**
Ada
**[14:01] Miracle's Friend 1**
Which of the two of them is
the superior virtual artist?
**[14:06] Vanity-sensei**
That's a difficult question to answer.
**[14:09] Vanity-sensei**
Five years ago, Kizuna AI suddenly
disappeared from the virtual world.
**[14:14] Vanity-sensei**
After that, Ada became a
huge hit out of nowhere
**[14:17] Vanity-sensei**
and won the Lapin d'Or,
before retiring last year.
**[14:21] Vanity-sensei**
Now she's part of the staff
of the Virtual Grid Awards.
**[14:27] Vanity-sensei**
There are people all over the world who
would love to see the two collide on stage.
**[14:35] Vanity-sensei**
But Kizuna AI remains missing.
**[14:39] Vanity-sensei**
Many wonder why she decided to disappear.
**[14:42] Vanity-sensei**
Some think that she may have
abandoned the virtual world...
**[14:48] Miracle**
Um...
**[14:50] Vanity-sensei**
You're... Miracle-san.
**[14:54] Vanity-sensei**
I don't believe you were here
when I took attendance.
**[14:57] Miracle**
Sorry. I was late.
**[15:00] Vanity-sensei**
Well, it's alright.
**[15:02] Vanity-sensei**
So?
**[15:03] Miracle**
Um, I don't think that... Kizuna AI
has abandoned the virtual world.
**[15:12] Miracle**
Because she believes in this world.
**[15:16] Miracle**
You can do anything here. Be anything.
**[15:19] Miracle**
Kizuna AI... The Kizuna AI who
wanted to connect with everyone...
**[15:25] Miracle**
would *never* decide to leave
such a wonderful world!
**[15:31] Vanity-sensei**
I see.
**[15:33] Vanity-sensei**
I'll be honest, you have absolutely no
evidence to support that assertion.
**[15:36] Vanity-sensei**
But I can feel your passion.
**[15:40] Vanity-sensei**
Miracle-san, you're our performance
member for today, right?
**[15:44] Miracle**
Y-Yes.
**[15:45] Vanity-sensei**
I hope we can see some of that
passion in your performance.
**[15:51] Miracle**
I'll do my best!
**[15:52] Vanity-sensei**
You'll be performing the song "Yosuga."
**[15:56] Vanity-sensei**
Will you be performing in that outfit?
**[15:58] Vanity-sensei**
You can register up to two outfits.
**[16:01] Miracle**
I know... But I...
**[16:04] Miracle**
I only have this one.
**[16:06] Vanity-sensei**
Alright. Go ahead, then.
**[16:11] Miracle**
Okay!
**[16:18] Miracle**
*I'm the virtual artist... Miracle!*
**[16:39] [SONG] Miracle ED**
I became aware of my love
**[16:51] [SONG] Miracle ED**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[16:56] [SONG] Miracle ED**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[17:01] [SONG] Miracle ED**
The neon of the electronic world where
we intersect is burned into my brain
**[17:06] [SONG] Miracle ED**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[17:12] [SONG] Miracle ED**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[17:17] [SONG] Miracle ED**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[17:22] [SONG] Miracle ED**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[17:26] [SONG] Miracle ED**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying
**[17:30] [SONG] Miracle ED**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[17:34] [SONG] Miracle ED**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[17:40] [SONG] Miracle ED**
Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[17:44] [SONG] Miracle ED**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other
**[17:50] [SONG] Miracle ED**
I am waiting for... forever
**[17:58] Miracle**
I-It's over...
**[18:01] Miracle's Friend 1**
Nice!
**[18:03] Miracle's Friend 2**
That was great!
**[18:06] Miracle**
Th-Thank you!
**[18:08] Vanity-sensei**
Your performance can be accessed
from any ADEN in the entire world.
**[18:14] Vanity-sensei**
Read the comments people make,
as they contain valuable advice.
**[18:18] Miracle**
Okay!
**[18:18] Vanity-sensei**
Everyone, please give me a report detailing
your thoughts on Miracle's performance just now.
**[18:24] Students**
Okay!
**[18:25] Miracle**
*I don't think I screwed up.*
**[18:31] Miracle**
Noelle?
**[18:32] Miracle**
*The* Noelle?
**[18:41] Miracle**
* She's here... Noelle...*
* She was watching my performance.*
**[18:46] Miracle's Friend 3**
Hey, Noelle's not in today's class right?
**[18:49] Miracle's Friend 4**
But she watched your performance?
That's pretty rare.
**[18:52] Miracle**
Y-Yeah.
**[18:54] Miracle's Friend 4**
You think you could grab her and
ask her to do a collab with you?
**[18:59] Miracle**
A-A collab?
**[19:02] Sign**
Whoa, is that Noelle?!
**[19:02] Sign**
It's Noelle!
**[19:02] Sign**
She's a goddess! lolol
**[19:02] Sign**
Noelle's here!
**[19:03] Miracle**
*Everybody's so excited.*
**[19:03] Sign**
She's never here!
**[19:04] Sign**
Noelle, I love you.
**[19:05] Sign**
How are you doing?
**[19:05] Miracle**
* If she came to see me, does that mean*
* she's interested in my performance?*
**[19:11] Miracle**
*Sh-Should I ask her? Could I ask her?*
**[19:13] Miracle**
*A collab between me and Noelle?*
**[19:16] Miracle**
*That's...*
**[19:21] Miracle**
*Totally possible!*
**[19:22] Miracle**
* Because here... in this*
* world you can do anything!*
**[19:25] Miracle**
*Yeah, I'll ask her!*
**[19:30] Miracle**
Send
**[19:34] Miracle**
*I-I sent it...*
**[19:37] Miracle**
* If this... if this collab*
* actually happens...*
**[19:41] Miracle**
*Maybe I'll get a ton of linkers!*
**[19:45] Miracle**
*What do I do?*
**[19:52] Miracle**
"No."
**[19:54] Miracle's Friend 3**
She sure turned you down fast, huh?
**[19:56] Miracle's Friend 4**
Don't let it bug you.
**[19:57] Sign**
lol
**[19:57] Sign**
Of course
**[19:58] Sign**
Don't let it bug you.
**[19:58] Sign**
lol
**[19:58] Sign**
That's hilarious lol
**[19:59] Sign**
Too bad!
**[20:01] Vanity-sensei**
Miracle-san, class isn't over.
**[20:03] Miracle**
Sorry!
**[20:10] Miracle**
I guess I got a little ahead of myself...
**[20:13] Miracle**
I became a virtual artist because
I wanted to be like AI-chan.
**[20:17] Miracle**
I thought that here at ADEN, I
could be anything I wanted to be.
**[20:25] Miracle**
But it's not like that at all.
**[20:30] Miracle**
I'm feeling weak.
**[20:35] Miracle**
At times like this...
**[20:38] [SONG] Song**
If you could be reincarnated,
what kind of you would you like to be?
**[20:44] [SONG] Song**
If that's what you wish for, I'll cast a little spell
**[20:48] [SONG] Song**
If that's what you wish for, I'll cast a little spell
**[20:49] Kizuna AI**
*It's okay.*
**[20:50] [SONG] Song**
If I were God, maybe I'd
make the whole world one
**[20:50] Kizuna AI**
*We're connected!*
**[20:54] Kizuna AI**
*Come on, lift your head up.*
**[20:56] [SONG] Song**
But you know, that'd just be a boring fairytale
**[20:57] Miracle**
AI...
**[21:09] Miracle**
What is this?
**[21:32] Miracle**
An avatar?
**[21:37] Miracle**
It's not moving at all, but
this is an avatar, right?
**[21:40] Miracle**
It's kind of cute, I guess.
**[21:49] Miracle**
Hello there...
**[21:52] Miracle**
Um...
**[21:55] Marumaru**
Could you not wake me up?
**[22:04] Miracle**
Why did he look so annoyed?
**[22:21] [SONG] ED**
I became aware of my love
**[22:32] [SONG] ED**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[22:37] [SONG] ED**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[22:42] [SONG] ED**
The neon of the electronic world where
we intersect is burned into my brain
**[22:47] [SONG] ED**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[22:53] [SONG] ED**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[22:58] [SONG] ED**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[23:03] [SONG] ED**

Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[23:26] [SONG] ED**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other

I am waiting for... forever

**[00:04] Miracle**
*My name's Miracle!*
**[00:05] Miracle**
* I'm 16 years old, and I'm*
* a student at ADEN Academy,*
**[00:08] Miracle**
*a school that trains virtual artists!*
**[00:10] Miracle**
*I want to perform with all my heart,*
**[00:12] Miracle**
* so that I can connect with lots and*
* lots of people like my hero, Kizuna AI!*
**[00:16] Miracle**
* But it's not going as*
* well as I hoped it would.*
**[00:19] Miracle**
*There's a lot that gets me down.*
**[00:21] Miracle**
* But one day when I was down, it was*
* AI-chan's words that pushed me forward, and I met...*
**[00:25] Miracle**
*somebody really mean!*
**[00:27] Miracle**
* There's still so much I don't*
* know about the virtual world.*
**[00:31] Miracle**
*But it's really neat!*
**[00:32] Miracle**
*Right?*
**[00:34] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[00:45] [SONG] Song**
The ground I stood on only looked distorted
**[00:50] [SONG] Song**
Because I saw it through tears of frustration
**[00:55] [SONG] Song**
But standing still isn’t like me!
**[01:00] [SONG] Song**
So I ran like crazy until I was out of breath
**[01:06] [SONG] Song**
No matter how many times I
get discouraged, I still love it
**[01:10] [SONG] Song**
I believe in my friends, and in
the me that’s chasing my dream
**[01:19] [SONG] Song**
Let our sparkling minds spout up
**[01:21] [SONG] Song**
Ride on this future wave!
We’ll go beyond this unstoppable thrill
**[01:26] [SONG] Song**
Race through with all our might
to find the sky we want to see
**[01:31] [SONG] Song**
Each time a dream comes true, the new “now”
is my new starting line, over and over without end
**[01:37] [SONG] Song**
Ride toward the future! The next step we take
**[01:42] [SONG] Song**
Will give rise to opportunity, as
much as all the courage we have
**[01:46] [SONG] Song**
Our shared wish binds us together
as we ride this tailwind
**[01:52] [SONG] Song**
How far can we go? With our hands linked tightly
**[01:57] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[02:04] Miracle**
~Encounter Attraction~
**[02:04] Miracle**
~Encounter Attraction~
**[02:09] Miracle**
He went back to sleep?
**[02:13] Ma**
Zzz... Zzz... Zzz...
**[02:19] Miracle**
*Just like I thought... he's so round!*
**[02:26] Miracle**
So round!
**[02:35] Miracle**
*That was so satisfying!*
**[02:37] Miracle**
Oh, right. Time to study for my next class.
**[02:48] Miracle**
We covered up to this point
last time, so... um...
**[03:10] Miracle**
*I feel... kinda strange...*
**[03:40] Miracle**
Who are you?
**[03:41] Chris**
Chris.
**[03:42] Miracle**
Chris?
**[03:43] Miracle**
Um, what are you doing?
**[03:47] Chris**
Observing.
**[03:50] Chris**
Want to see?
**[03:51] Miracle**
Photos of me totally asleep?
**[03:53] Miracle**
Why am I laughing like that?
**[03:56] Miracle**
I'm eating something in my dream?
**[03:58] Chris**
You were singing, too.
**[04:00] Miracle**
That, I want to see! Show me!
**[04:05] Miracle**
I suck! And I've got a really
satisfied look on my face!
**[04:08] Miracle**
Stop the video right now!
**[04:12] Miracle**
Why were you recording me, anyway?
**[04:15] Chris**
"Why"?
**[04:17] Miracle**
I know!
**[04:18] Miracle**
It's for your stream!
**[04:20] Miracle**
You'll title it "I Recorded
This Girl Sleeping for Hours!"
**[04:23] Miracle**
I'll admit, I did look
pretty funny back there.
**[04:26] Miracle**
It's a pretty good idea
for a video, actually!
**[04:30] Chris**
I see...
**[04:31] Chris**
Stream...
**[04:32] Miracle**
Hold it!
**[04:34] Chris**
You just said it would make a good video.
**[04:36] Miracle**
I did, but...!
**[04:37] Chris**
You said it was a good idea.
**[04:39] Miracle**
I did, but...!
**[04:42] Miracle**
Don't look at me like that.
**[04:45] Miracle**
Let's change the subject!
Your avatar is really cute, Chris.
**[04:49] Chris**
Cute?
**[04:50] Miracle**
Yup! Yup!
**[04:51] Chris**
Thanks.
**[04:55] Miracle**
Class is about to start!
**[04:57] Miracle**
I've got to get to the portal area.
**[05:00] Miracle**
Um...
**[05:02] Miracle**
Where's the access point for
the Cybersecurity Class?
**[05:05] Miracle**
CS-1A, it says.
**[05:07] Chris**
CS-1A.
**[05:09] Miracle**
Huh? Do you have
Cybersecurity Class next, too?
**[05:13] Chris**
No.
**[05:14] Miracle**
You don't?
**[05:16] Chris**
I haven't picked a schedule.
**[05:18] Miracle**
What about your elective course?
**[05:20] Miracle**
Which one did you take?
**[05:21] Chris**
The Virtual Artist course.
**[05:23] Miracle**
Okay.
**[05:24] Chris**
The Virtual Creator course.
**[05:26] Miracle**
Huh?
**[05:26] Chris**
And then Virtual Designer, Programming...
**[05:30] Miracle**
You're taking a ton!
**[05:33] Miracle**
You've got a lot of energy, huh?
**[05:35] Chris**
I take whatever interests
me on any given day.
**[05:39] Miracle**
Then you're into Cybersecurity right now?
**[05:43] Chris**
No, I'm interested in you, Miracle.
**[05:48] Miracle**
Me?
**[05:49] Miracle**
I'm surprised you know who I am.
**[05:52] Chris**
Yeah.
**[05:53] Vanity**
Miracle,
**[05:55] Vanity**
I was just informed that
Cybersecurity Class is canceled today.
**[05:59] Miracle**
Oh, it's canceled?
**[06:02] Vanity**
If you want to study on your own,
I'll reserve a private booth for you.
**[06:07] Miracle**
I'd rather take a different class.
**[06:10] Vanity**
Shall I make a list of other
available classes for you?
**[06:17] Miracle**
Hey, Vanity,
**[06:19] Miracle**
you can go to any class as long as you're
with someone who's enrolled in it, right?
**[06:23] Vanity**
Correct.
**[06:24] Miracle**
So...
**[06:28] Vanity-sensei**
Today I'll be showing you
the best-scoring avatars
**[06:32] Vanity-sensei**
from the ones you submitted the other day.
**[06:37] Miracle**
So this is the Virtual Designer course?
**[06:47] Vanity-sensei**
Select a design you like
and write a report on it.
**[06:51] Miracle**
If we pick it, does that
mean we get to keep it?
**[06:55] Vanity-sensei**
Of course not.
**[06:58] Vanity-sensei**
Copyright for an avatar
resides with its creator.
**[07:01] Vanity-sensei**
The designs themselves are copyrighted, too.
**[07:03] Vanity-sensei**
You can't use them without
permission, or copy their data.
**[07:07] Miracle**
Of course... Yeah.
**[07:10] Vanity-sensei**
Now take a moment to look
at them all, everyone.
**[07:21] Miracle**
These are great...
**[07:23] Chris**
Do you want to change your avatar?
**[07:26] Miracle**
Yeah, I think I do.
**[07:28] Miracle**
I don't have any talent or
skills when it comes to design.
**[07:32] Miracle**
The most I was able to do
was scan my real-world self
**[07:34] Miracle**
and then use an app to
make a few small changes.
**[07:39] Miracle**
Here, you can be anything you want to be.
**[07:43] Miracle**
So I kind of wish I could be
something super-cool or super-cute!
**[07:50] Chris**
You are cute, Miracle.
**[07:52] Miracle**
Sorry! I was being a downer so
you're trying to cheer me up.
**[07:58] Chris**
I am not.
**[07:59] Miracle**
Oh.
**[08:09] Miracle**
This avatar is amazing...
**[08:13] Chris**
Very cool.
**[08:14] Chris**
Yeah. It's cool.
**[08:16] Chris**
But that's not all...
**[08:19] Chris**
It has this feeling of solitude about it...
**[08:22] Chris**
Solitude? You mean it's lonely?
**[08:26] Miracle**
Is it lonely?
**[08:28] Miracle**
Yeah, maybe it's lonely, all by itself.
**[08:31] Miracle**
But it still has the
strength to stand alone...
**[08:36] Miracle**
I find that really compelling.
**[08:38] Miracle**
It's something that I don't have.
**[08:48] Chris**
"Niska"...
**[08:52] Miracle**
Thanks for letting me try
the Designer course, Chris!
**[08:55] Chris**
Sure.
**[08:56] Miracle**
It made me realize how little
talent I have, but it was fun!
**[09:01] Miracle**
I'm done with my classes for
today. What about you?
**[09:05] Miracle**
Oh, you don't have a set schedule, right?
**[09:08] Miracle**
What will you do this afternoon?
**[09:09] Chris**
Can I stay with you, Miracle?
**[09:11] Miracle**
Of course!
**[09:17] Miracle**
I'm hungry.
**[09:19] Miracle**
Hey Chris, why don't we get lunch?
**[09:23] Miracle**
She disappeared!
**[09:38] Support Vanity**
Hello, Miracle.
**[09:40] Miracle**
Oh, hello.
**[09:42] Support**
I saved some for you.
**[09:45] Miracle**
Great!
**[09:47] Miracle**
Thanks!
**[09:48] Support**
Thank you!
**[09:50] Support**
Does anyone need help?
**[09:53] Miracle**
It looks so good...
**[09:55] Miracle**
Where should I eat today?
**[10:03] Miracle**
No one's here.
**[10:06] Miracle**
I didn't come to see that person, though...
**[10:12] Miracle**
Why am I making excuses for myself?
**[10:16] Miracle**
Time to eat.
**[10:27] Quan**
Takoyaki...
**[10:29] Miracle**
Do you... want some?
**[10:36] Miracle**
Of course not...
**[10:38] Quan**
I do.
**[10:39] Miracle**
*You do, huh?*
**[10:54] Miracle**
* I've never seen someone be so*
* neat when eating takoyaki...*
**[10:59] Miracle**
*Does takoyaki go well with tea?*
**[11:05] Miracle**
*It does, more so than you'd think!*
**[11:08] Miracle**
* I think this person would make a*
* really popular virtual artist.*
**[11:13] Miracle**
*What kind of avatar would fit?*
**[11:16] Miracle**
* Something like that one I saw*
* in the Designer course, maybe?*
**[11:27] Quan**
Thank you.
**[11:29] Miracle**
I should've said this earlier,
but this isn't ordinary takoyaki.
**[11:33] Miracle**
It's fortune takoyaki.
**[11:35] Quan**
Fortune takoyaki...
**[11:37] Miracle**
If you find the octopus that's been cut
into the shape of a heart, you win!
**[11:41] Miracle**
Something lucky will happen!
**[11:43] Miracle**
I use it on my streams a lot.
**[11:47] Miracle**
Isn't that the heart-shaped one?
**[11:51] Quan**
I don't think so.
**[11:53] Miracle**
Too bad.
**[11:54] Miracle**
I guess this box didn't have one.
**[11:57] Quan**
Maybe the first one I ate...
**[12:01] Miracle**
...was the heart-shaped one?
**[12:03] Quan**
I think so.
**[12:04] Miracle**
I'm so jealous!
**[12:06] Miracle**
Something lucky will happen to you!
**[12:08] Quan**
I don't really need any luck.
**[12:11] Quan**
I'll give it to you.
**[12:13] Miracle**
Really? Can I have your luck?
**[12:17] Quan**
I can't actually give it to you.
**[12:20] Quan**
Does it make you that happy?
**[12:22] Miracle**
It does!
**[12:24] Quan**
It might not have even been heart-shaped.
**[12:27] Quan**
I might be lying.
**[12:30] Miracle**
Are you lying?
**[12:35] Quan**
I'm not.
**[12:37] Miracle**
Whew!
**[12:38] Miracle**
Don't scare me like that!
**[12:40] Miracle**
Oh, I'm not giving back that luck.
**[12:43] Quan**
You're strange.
**[12:44] Miracle**
Oh, look at the time!
**[12:48] Miracle**
I'll be going!
**[12:51] Miracle**
Bye!
**[12:55] Miracle**
Yes?
**[12:58] Miracle**
Um...
**[13:00] Quan**
Thank you for the takoyaki.
**[13:04] Miracle**
Oh, sure...
**[13:07] Miracle**
Bye!
**[13:15] Quan**
Why...
**[13:21] Miracle**
Chris!
**[13:24] Miracle**
I'm glad I found you!
**[13:26] Miracle**
Did you eat lunch?
**[13:27] Chris**
Yes.
**[13:28] Miracle**
Good. I'm totally full, too!
**[13:31] Miracle**
I split some takoyaki with
a friend... someone I know.
**[13:36] Miracle**
I would've been way too full if
I tried to eat it all myself!
**[13:38] Chris**
A friend? Someone you know?
**[13:41] Miracle**
What about you?
**[13:43] Miracle**
Were you supposed to meet somebody for lunch?
**[13:46] Miracle**
You just disappeared...
**[13:49] Chris**
No, I was by myself.
**[13:50] Chris**
I'm always by myself.
**[13:53] Chris**
I didn't know anybody at ADEN. Until today...
**[13:57] Chris**
So spending the day with
you was really new to me.
**[14:02] Miracle**
Um, do you have any friends?
**[14:06] Chris**
No.
**[14:08] Miracle**
I see.
**[14:10] Miracle**
* Huh? Did I say something*
* I wasn't supposed to?*
**[14:13] Miracle**
*Maybe Chris doesn't have any friends?*
**[14:17] Chris**
I do.
**[14:19] Chris**
I do have a friend.
**[14:22] Miracle**
I see!
**[14:24] Miracle**
Um, but... we're friends too, right?
**[14:27] Miracle**
We became friends today!
**[14:30] Miracle**
Don't tell me I'm the only
one who thought that?
**[14:33] Chris**
No, we're friends.
**[14:37] Miracle**
Whew.
**[14:38] Chris**
You're interesting.
**[14:40] Miracle**
Am I?
**[14:42] Chris**
I'm very interested in you.
**[14:44] Miracle**
You said that before.
**[14:47] Miracle**
What makes me so interesting?
**[14:50] Chris**
Your performance yesterday...
**[14:52] Miracle**
The one I did in class?
**[14:56] [SONG] Song**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[15:00] [SONG] Song**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[15:06] [SONG] Song**
Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[15:11] [SONG] Song**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other
**[15:16] [SONG] Song**
I am waiting for... forever
**[15:21] Chris**
When you were performing,
I found myself drawn to you.
**[15:26] Miracle**
Wow! What was it? What did you like so much?
**[15:29] Chris**
I don't know.
**[15:30] Miracle**
I see.
**[15:31] Miracle**
So maybe there wasn't one specific reason...
**[15:34] Chris**
No specific reason...
**[15:36] Chris**
Maybe I'd understand if I tried it.
**[15:41] Miracle**
Do you know that song?
**[15:43] Chris**
I don't.
**[15:44] Chris**
But I learned it from your performance.
**[15:47] Miracle**
I see.
**[15:48] Miracle**
Wait, you can perform it
just by seeing it once?
**[15:51] Chris**
I'll try it, okay?
**[16:07] [SONG] Song**
I became aware of my love
**[16:18] [SONG] Song**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[16:23] [SONG] Song**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[16:28] [SONG] Song**
The neon of the electronic world where
we intersect is burned into my brain
**[16:33] [SONG] Song**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[16:39] [SONG] Song**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[16:44] [SONG] Song**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[16:49] [SONG] Song**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[16:53] [SONG] Song**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying
**[16:57] [SONG] Song**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[17:02] [SONG] Song**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[17:07] [SONG] Song**
Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[17:12] [SONG] Song**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other
**[17:17] [SONG] Song**
I am waiting for... forever
**[17:25] Miracle**
Wow... that was way better than I did...
**[17:35] Students**
What was that performance just now?
**[17:37] Students**
It was amazing!
**[17:39] Students**
Wow, Chris!
**[17:45] Miracle**
Listen, were you really singing
"Yosuga" for the first time back there?
**[17:51] Miracle**
Or maybe you'd practiced it before?
**[17:55] Chris**
It was my first time.
**[17:58] Miracle**
I see...
**[18:02] Chris**
Miracle.
**[18:04] Miracle**
W-What?
**[18:06] Chris**
It doesn't matter what anybody else thinks.
**[18:09] Chris**
I like your performance better.
**[18:13] Chris**
For some reason, it just kind of draws me in.
**[18:16] Chris**
So...
**[18:17] Chris**
Can I stay with you?
**[18:22] Chris**
I want your answer.
**[18:24] Miracle**
Of course you can.
**[18:29] Chris**
Thank you.
**[18:36] Miracle**
Did you just kiss me?
**[18:38] Chris**
I did.
**[18:39] Chris**
I recorded it, too.
**[18:42] Miracle**
I look so ugly!
**[18:43] Chris**
Want to stream it?
**[18:45] Miracle**
No!
**[18:46] Chris**
It'd be fun, though.
**[18:48] Miracle**
It might be, but...
**[18:50] Chris**
My eyes are halfway closed, too.
**[18:54] Miracle**
You're right!
**[19:17] [SONG] Song**
I became aware of my love
**[19:28] [SONG] Song**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[19:33] [SONG] Song**
So I pull in the rope of truth

**[19:59] [SONG] Song**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[20:04] [SONG] Song**
I want to see you so

**[21:07] Miracle**
Um...
**[21:08] Miracle**
What is it short for?
**[21:10] Vanity**
Artist Garden Academy.
**[21:13] Vanity**
Or ADEN Academy for short.
**[21:15] Miracle**
Yeah, that's right!
**[21:17] Miracle**
ADEN Academy is a school for kids who
want to make it big in the virtual world!
**[21:24] Miracle**
The principal is Principal Auris,
**[21:26] Miracle**
who's super-famous for being
the world's first AI principal!
**[21:31] Miracle**
"World's first"... doesn't
that sound so cool?
**[21:35] Miracle**
I want to be the world's first in something...
**[21:40] Vanity**
Why not try to be world's first
in something you're good at?
**[21:44] Miracle**
Something I'm good at?
**[21:46] Miracle**
Dancing and singing, then!
**[21:48] Miracle**
Virtual artist performances
are what I'm best at!
**[21:52] Miracle**
But that'd be really hard.
**[21:57] Miracle**
That's too vague, isn't it?
**[21:59] Miracle**
"Being the first virtual artist
in the world to do something..."
**[22:04] Miracle**
Wait, what were we even talking about again?
**[22:07] Vanity**
At the start of the stream, you were saying
**[22:11] Vanity**
you'd spend the whole time
talking about ADEN Academy.
**[22:13] Miracle**
That's right!
**[22:14] Miracle**
I was talking about ADEN Academy...
**[22:17] Miracle**
I bet you all want to know more about Vanity!
**[22:22] Vanity**
Me?
**[22:24] Miracle**
Yup!
**[22:25] Miracle**
Vanity is the mascot of ADEN Academy.
**[22:29] Miracle**
When you first enroll, you're
given a device called a VANITIM.
**[22:34] Miracle**
And Vanity's program is inside it!
**[22:38] Miracle**
You can customize your Vanity how you like,
**[22:42] Miracle**
but I like the default settings,
so I've kept them!
**[22:46] Miracle**
The teachers for our classes are all
based off of Vanity's design too.
**[22:52] Vanity**
Yes.
**[22:52] Vanity**
And we're not just found in the
VANITIM or the virtual world,
**[22:55] Vanity**
there are also robots modeled after
Vanity in the real-world academy
**[22:59] Vanity**
that provide support for the students.
**[23:02] Miracle**
That's right! The Vanity in the cafeteria
always make me yummy takoyaki.
**[23:07] Miracle**
I can't thank them enough!
**[23:09] Vanity**
You've had that takoyaki
five times in the past week.
**[23:13] Miracle**
No way! Five times? That's practically
a takoyaki lunch every day!
**[23:17] Vanity**
I'd like you to eat a more balanced diet,
**[23:22] Vanity**
so I'm going to be coming up
with a new meal plan for you.
**[23:25] Vanity**
I'll be sharing information
with the cafeteria later.
**[23:28] Miracle**
Sharing information?
**[23:31] Vanity**
Your bodyweight data.
**[23:33] Miracle**
H-Hey! No! You can't share a girl's weight—

*I just made a new friend!*
**[00:07] Miracle**
*Her name's Chris!*
**[00:09] Miracle**

**[00:13] Miracle**

**[00:17] Miracle**
* She decided she might figure*

**[00:20] Miracle**
*and so did the same song...*
**[00:23] Miracle**
*I was amazed! She was incredible!*
**[00:26] Miracle**
*I'm a little frustrated.*

**[02:56] Vanity**
Good morning, Miracle.
**[02:58] Vanity**
Today is registered as an
important day on your calendar.
**[03:02] Vanity**
Will you confirm your schedule?
**[03:04] Miracle**
No, I remember!
**[03:06] Miracle**
I've been waiting for this
day for a long time!
**[03:11] Miracle**
Time to enter the Virtual Grid Awards!
**[03:19] Computer**
*Ready?*
**[03:34] Miracle**
Chris!
**[03:36] Chris**
There you are, Miracle.
**[03:39] Miracle**
Chris! Morning!
**[03:47] Chris**
Morning...
**[03:52] Auris**
Hello, everyone.
**[03:54] Auris**
I'm Principal Auris.
**[03:56] Auris**
As I'm sure you've all seen, entries for
the Virtual Grid Awards are now open.
**[04:00] Miracle**
Yup! Yup!
**[04:01] Auris**
I'll go over the requirements again.
**[04:03] Auris**
To enter the Virtual Grid Awards,
you must first win an ADEN Seed.
**[04:12] Auris**
The ADEN Seed consists of a
qualifier and a main event.
**[04:13] Sign**
Qualifier
**[04:14] Sign**
Main Event
**[04:16] Sign**
Qualifier
**[04:16] Sign**
Main Event
**[04:16] Auris**
You'll compete against other
students who have entered.
**[04:20] Auris**
You will be judged based on your
ADEN Academy channel ranking.
**[04:24] Sign**
ADEN Channel Ranking
**[04:24] Sign**
Score
**[04:24] Auris**
Your ADEN channel ranking,
as of this moment,
**[04:28] Auris**
will become your Virtual Grid Award ranking.
**[04:30] Sign**
VGA
**[04:30] Sign**
ADEN Channel Ranking
**[04:31] Auris**
Your current ADEN channel ranking
**[04:33] Auris**
will be taken into account to
generate your starting score,
**[04:36] Auris**
but your online activities during the entry
period will be given a much greater priority.
**[04:40] Sign**
Start
**[04:41] Auris**
In other words, you're all starting
off on an essentially even footing.
**[04:47] Auris**
If you make it to the top fifteen,
you're through the qualifiers.
**[04:53] Auris**
That number will get smaller and
smaller as the main event proceeds.
**[04:56] Auris**
And the one who wins the ADEN Seed
will be allowed to compete
**[05:01] Auris**
in the Virtual Grid Awards with
others from around the world.
**[05:04] Auris**
You all understand that, right everyone?
**[05:07] Miracle**
Yes!
**[05:07] Auris**
Previously, entrants were allowed
to choose their own music,
**[05:14] Auris**
but this year, we'll be having
everyone sing the same song.
**[05:18] Miracle**
The same song?
**[05:20] Auris**
The song you'll be using was
composed and written by an AI
**[05:26] Auris**
by taking into account the musical
preferences of past VGA winners
**[05:29] Auris**
and the skill level of the entire school.
**[05:32] Auris**
That's kind of amazing!
**[05:33] Chris**
Yes.
**[05:35] Auris**
This is the equation that
will lead you to victory.
**[05:37] Auris**
Everyone, have confidence
when you attempt it.
**[05:41] Auris**
Note that you're free to use the
original song lyrics written by the AI,
**[05:45] Auris**
or substitute your own.
**[05:49] Miracle**
Which would be better?
**[05:52] Auris**
You will be sent the song shortly.
**[05:54] Auris**
If you have any questions,
you're free to ask them at any time.
**[06:00] Miracle**
A song written by an AI, huh?
**[06:03] Miracle**
If the principal approved it,
it must be a great song!
**[06:08] Miracle**
Should we use the original lyrics,
or write our own?
**[06:12] Miracle**
Which will you do?
**[06:14] Chris**
I'll do whatever you do.
**[06:15] Miracle**
I'm choosing?
**[06:17] Miracle**
Huh?
**[06:19] Miracle**
Wait, how do you write lyrics?
**[06:22] Chris**
I don't know.
**[06:23] Miracle**
Of course.
**[06:24] Miracle**
Maybe I can just use the
lyrics it comes with.
**[06:27] Chris**
I'll do the same, then.
**[06:28] Miracle**
Okay, let's do this!
**[06:31] Chris**
Yay.
**[06:33] Miracle**
The principal said to have confidence
when we tried to sing it, right?
**[06:38] Chris**
Yeah.
**[06:39] Miracle**
With a great song like that, I'm thinking
the ADEN Seed will be a breeze!
**[06:44] Chris**
Let's both try to get first place!
**[06:46] Miracle**
Yeah!
**[06:47] Miracle**
It'll all come down to how well
we can sing that song, huh?
**[06:55] Miracle**
I've got no ideas!
**[06:58] Miracle**
Anybody got any ideas?
**[07:00] Miracle**
You, marumaru?
**[07:02] Miracle**
Hey! Hey!
**[07:04] Marumaru**
Are you talking to me?
**[07:07] Miracle**
Yup.
**[07:08] Marumaru**
Who's marumaru?
**[07:10] Miracle**
That's your name, marumaru.
**[07:12] Miracle**
Isn't it cute?
**[07:16] Marumaru**
Fine. Whatever.
**[07:20] Marumaru**
Why are you two here, anyway?
**[07:24] Miracle**
Why wouldn't we be?
**[07:25] Miracle**
ADEN is our home.
**[07:28] Miracle**
And when I hold you in my arms,
I feel so at peace.
**[07:34] Miracle**
You're so round!
**[07:39] Miracle**
Oh, no!
**[07:41] Miracle**
Gotta get ready for class!
**[07:44] Miracle**
Mine's canceled.
**[07:46] Miracle**
What about you?
**[07:48] Chris**
Communication class.
**[07:49] Miracle**
You sure are taking a lot of classes.
**[07:52] Miracle**
What is it?
**[07:53] Chris**
You're worried, Miracle.
**[07:56] Chris**
Should I stay with you?
**[07:57] Miracle**
It's fine, it's fine.
**[07:58] Miracle**
Go take your class.
**[08:00] Chris**
But...
**[08:01] Miracle**
I'll check out the others' channels
while I've got free time.
**[08:05] Chris**
Okay.
**[08:07] Miracle**
See you later.
**[08:11] Vanity-sensei**
and there are many cases
where better communication
**[08:16] Vanity-sensei**
between artist and viewer
can open new paths.
**[08:19] Vanity-sensei**
Think about how you can apply
this to your own channel.
**[08:22] Miracle**
What's my rank right now?
**[08:24] Sign**
Big
Announcement!!!
**[08:24] Sign**
I Did a Collab with *her*!
**[08:28] Miracle**
Of course.
**[08:33] Miracle**
It's Noelle!
**[08:34] Miracle**
Let me see her ranking...
**[08:38] Miracle**
23?!
**[08:39] Miracle**
Wow! Noelle's amazing!
**[08:43] Chris**
*I came up a good idea.*
**[08:43] Sign**
*I came up a good idea.*
**[08:44] Miracle**
What?
**[08:45] Chris**
*Communicate.*
**[08:46] Sign**
*Communicate.*
**[08:47] Miracle**
Communicate what? With who?
**[08:49] Chris**
*Vanity-sensei.*
**[08:49] Sign**
*Vanity-sensei.*
**[08:51] Miracle**
You mean ask the teacher?
**[08:54] Miracle**
Vanity-sensei!
**[08:58] Vanity-sensei**
Oh, Miracle-san.
**[09:01] Vanity-sensei**
What is it?
**[09:02] Miracle**
Tell me the secret to doing a good job
singing the song for the ADEN Seed!
**[09:05] Vanity-sensei**
I'm glad to see you're
enthusiastic about it,
**[09:08] Vanity-sensei**
but before you start looking for secrets,
have you done the basics?
**[09:13] Vanity-sensei**
You need to master the basics before
moving on to anything advanced.
**[09:19] Vanity-sensei**
There was a lot that needed improvement
in your performance the other day.
**[09:23] Vanity-sensei**
Wouldn't fixing those things
be a better use of your time?
**[09:28] Miracle**
Th-Thank you!
**[09:35] Chris**
There you are, Miracle.
**[09:37] Miracle**
Thanks for the advice! I asked Vanity-sensei.
**[09:40] Chris**
How'd it go?
**[09:41] Miracle**
He told me something really basic,
and I didn't get to ask anything.
**[09:46] Chris**
Ask again, maybe?
**[09:47] Miracle**
No...
**[09:49] Chris**
You could ask somebody else this time.
**[09:51] Miracle**
Who?
**[09:52] Chris**
The principal.
**[09:53] Miracle**
Principal...? You mean Principal Auris?
**[09:56] Miracle**
I couldn't do that.
**[09:58] Chris**
Why?
**[09:59] Miracle**
Huh? "Why"?
**[10:01] Chris**
She picked the song.
**[10:03] Miracle**
Yeah, but... she's the principal!
**[10:07] Chris**
She told us to ask if we had
questions this morning.
**[10:11] Miracle**
Yeah, she did, but...
**[10:16] Miracle**
*I really did come!*
**[10:18] Miracle**
*I'm so nervous!*
**[10:25] Miracle**
*It's Ada!*
**[10:26] Miracle**
*Ada's heading right for me!*
**[10:41] Miracle**
Um... that was Ada-san wasn't it?
**[10:46] Auris**
Yes.
**[10:47] Auris**
Pursuing one's ideals is a difficult thing.
**[10:52] Miracle**
I-I see?
**[10:54] Auris**
So, what can I do for you?
**[10:55] Auris**
Miracle-san, a student in
our virtual artist course.
**[10:59] Auris**
Miracle-san?
**[11:01] Miracle**
Oh, right?
**[11:02] Miracle**
Is there some trick to doing a good
job singing the ADEN Seed song?
**[11:06] Miracle**
I asked Vanity-sensei...
**[11:11] Auris**
And why do you want to know?
**[11:14] Miracle**
Well, um... because you
need to win the ADEN Seed
**[11:19] Miracle**
to get to the Virtual Grid Awards.
**[11:23] Auris**
And you think if you knew the trick to
singing the song, you could do that?
**[11:28] Auris**
Is that really all you need right now?
**[11:33] Miracle**
*Wait, wait.*
**[11:34] Miracle**
* You can't win the ADEN Seed*
* just by knowing the trick*
**[11:37] Miracle**
*and doing a great job singing the song?*
**[11:40] Auris**
Why do you want to be in
the Virtual Grid Awards?
**[11:44] Miracle**
Because I saw AI-chan win the
Lapin d'Or when I was young,
**[11:49] Miracle**
and she looked so amazing...
**[11:51] Miracle**
That's what made me want
to be a virtual artist.
**[11:55] Miracle**
My dream is to win the
Lapin d'Or, like AI-chan!
**[11:59] Auris**
The Lapin d'Or is the ultimate prize
that all virtual artists dream of winning.
**[12:05] Auris**
Your dream is something
that everyone else shares.
**[12:08] Auris**
They reach out for it as hard as they
possibly can, and still fail to reach it.
**[12:14] Auris**
Miracle-san, what does
your dream mean to you?
**[12:21] Miracle**
*I'd never thought about it.*
**[12:24] Chris**
Miracle.
**[12:27] Miracle**
* What did those words*
* Principal Auris said mean?*
**[12:31] Miracle**
*What does my dream mean?*
**[12:34] Miracle**
* I want to be like AI-chan. That's been*
* my dream ever since I was little.*
**[12:40] Miracle**
*AI-chan! I'm a virtual artist now!*
**[12:45] Miracle**
*I want the Lapin d'Or!*
**[12:49] Miracle**
Is that enough?
**[12:53] Miracle**
Is that your dream?
**[12:55] Miracle**
*I don't really understand yet...*
**[12:58] Miracle**
*But I love AI-chan!*
**[13:01] Miracle**
*I love virtual artists!*
**[13:04] Miracle**
*So...*
**[13:05] Miracle**
I want to share that!
**[13:07] Miracle**
I'm going to go do a stream!
***SIGN*** It's me, Miracle!
**[13:10] Miracle**
It's me, Miracle!
**[13:12] Miracle**
I started this stream because I really
want to share with you how I feel!
**[13:16] Miracle**
Did you hear the song for the ADEN Seed yet?
**[13:18] Miracle**
I was trying to come up with
a way to sing it right.
**[13:22] Miracle**
And I had a great idea: I just had
to learn the trick to singing it!
**[13:29] Miracle**
* But I couldn't figure it out,*
* so I went to see Principal Auris!*
**[13:36] Miracle**
* And she asked me if the "trick"*
* was really what I needed.*
**[13:41] Miracle**
*I couldn't answer her.*
**[13:44] Miracle**
*Oh, she was super nice!*
**[13:47] Miracle**
*I just don't really understand it.*
**[13:50] Miracle**
* But there's one thing I understand.*
* I love virtual artists!*
**[13:55] Miracle**
* And right now, something inside me is*
* telling me to share something with you all!*
**[14:01] Miracle**
*So I'm going to sing!*

Bye-bye!
**[16:04] Miracle**
I'm back.
**[16:05] Chris**
Welcome back, Miracle.
**[16:07] Chris**
You've got a lot of comments.
**[16:08] Miracle**
Really? Yay!
**[16:10] Sign**
*Nice!*
**[16:10] Sign**
*That was intense!*
**[16:10] Sign**
*You're the best!!*
**[16:12] Miracle**
It's looking pretty good, huh?
**[16:15] Chris**
Yeah, it is.
**[16:17] Chris**
You got a message.
**[16:18] Miracle**
An invitation message?
**[16:20] Miracle**
From Noelle?
**[16:27] Miracle**
What's going on?
**[16:32] Miracle**
Noelle?
**[16:34] Miracle**
*The* Noelle, who's always
at the top of the rankings,
**[16:37] Miracle**
and is super cute and super
popular and super talented?
**[16:40] Miracle**
No way!
**[16:42] Miracle**
I saw your channel! 23rd place!
That's incredible!
**[16:46] Noelle**
I can't believe you.
**[16:48] Noelle**
You call yourself an artist?
**[16:52] Noelle**
An artist's job is to come up with
your own ideas and express them.
**[16:56] Noelle**
And you went to ask
Principal Auris for help?
**[17:00] Miracle**
She said to ask if we had questions!
**[17:03] Noelle**
I've never heard of anybody
actually going, though!
**[17:06] Miracle**
*She's scary!*
**[17:07] Noelle**
And I can't believe the way you said you
"Just ran through it" on your stream,
**[17:12] Noelle**
like you're making excuses!
**[17:15] Noelle**
Seeing lazy girls like you
really annoys me.
**[17:22] Noelle**
You need to cut it out.
**[17:25] Noelle**
You're the one who'll have to
live with the embarrassment.
**[17:33] Chris**
Miracle...
**[17:35] Miracle**
What was that?
**[17:36] Miracle**
Why did she have to get angry at me?
**[17:38] Miracle**
I did my best!
**[17:40] Chris**
Yeah.
**[17:42] Miracle**
I put a lot of thought into
my dream and the song...
**[17:47] Miracle**
I thought I did.
**[17:50] Miracle**
I mean, I've got a long way to go.
I can't do it like Noelle can.
**[17:55] Miracle**
But what gives Noelle the right to say
that stuff? She doesn't know anything.
**[18:02] Miracle**
It's *so* frustrating!
**[18:04] Miracle**
But marumaru makes me feel so much better!
**[18:09] Miracle**
But I do understand what
she's saying... a little.
**[18:15] Chris**
Yeah.
**[18:17] Miracle**
Chris, all you say is "Yeah."
**[18:20] Chris**
I understand that you're worrying
a lot and thinking a lot.
**[18:25] Chris**
I saw it.
**[18:26] Miracle**
Chris...
**[18:27] Chris**
What's bothering you right now?
**[18:29] Miracle**
Nothing's bothering me...
**[18:32] Miracle**
I'm just thinking that Noelle was right.
**[18:36] Miracle**
I need to shape up, don't I?
**[18:45] Noelle**
It's not good enough...
**[18:51] Vanity**
Noelle, you need to get some
sleep to be ready for tomorrow.
**[18:56] Noelle**
Just a little more.
**[18:58] Vanity**
Don't stay up too late.
**[19:01] Noelle**
Thanks.
**[19:13] Noelle**
* This is my chance...*
* and I'm going to take it!*
**[19:35] [SONG] Song**
I became aware of my love
**[19:46] [SONG] Song**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[19:51] [SONG] Song**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[19:56] [SONG] Song**
The neon of the electronic world where
we intersect is burned into my brain
**[20:01] [SONG] Song**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[20:07] [SONG] Song**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[20:12] [SONG] Song**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[20:17] [SONG] Song**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[20:22] [SONG] Song**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying
**[20:25] [SONG] Song**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[20:30] [SONG] Song**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[20:36] [SONG] Song**
Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[20:40] [SONG] Song**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other
**[20:46] [SONG] Song**
I am waiting for... forever

I thought we were going to talk

**[21:21] Vanity**
My analysis showed this would result
in a greater increase to your skills.
**[21:26] Vanity**
So I changed our plans.

**[21:36] Vanity**
The Lapin d'Or is the highest
award you can win at the VGAs.
**[21:36] Sign**
The Lapin d'Or is the highest award
you can win at the VGAs.
***SIGN*** What animal is it based off of?
**[21:42] Vanity**
What animal is it based off of?
**[21:46] Miracle**
I know!
***SIGN*** A rabbit
**[21:47] Miracle**
A rabbit!
**[21:48] Miracle**
Yay!
**[21:49] Sign**
Question 2
**[21:50] Vanity**
Okay, question 2.
**[21:51] Sign**
The Lapin d'Or is famous for its reputation as an NFT.
**[21:52] Vanity**
The Lapin d'Or is famous for
its reputation as an NFT.
***SIGN*** What is an NFT?
**[21:57] Vanity**
What is an NFT?
**[22:00] Miracle**
NFT...?
**[22:04] Vanity**
Out of time.
**[22:04] Sign**
Question 2
***SIGN*** What is an NFT?
**[22:06] Miracle**
Oh, no! I thought too much
and my head froze up!
**[22:10] Miracle**
So uh, what's an NFT?
**[22:12] Vanity**
Non-Fungible Token.
**[22:14] Vanity**
...is what it's short for.
**[22:16] Miracle**
"Non-Fungible Token"?
**[22:18] Vanity**
You don't understand, do you?
**[22:20] Miracle**
Tell me, Vanity!
**[22:22] Vanity**
Do you want a detailed explanation?
Or a quick rundown...
**[22:25] Miracle**
A quick rundown!
***SIGN*** A quick rundown!
**[22:27] Vanity**
"Non-Fungible Token"
**[22:29] Vanity**
refers to tokens
that are not fungible.
**[22:29] Sign**
refers to tokens that are not fungible
**[22:33] Miracle**
That was too quick!
**[22:34] Miracle**
Not fungible? What's a token?
**[22:37] Vanity**
Miracle, do you understand
what fungible means?
**[22:41] Miracle**
Um... does it have something
to do with replacement?
**[22:44] Vanity**
Yes. "Fungible" means it can be replaced
with something that's identical to it.
**[22:48] Vanity**
Thus, a token is non-fungible if there is
no equivalent that it can replaced with.
**[22:54] Miracle**
So there's only one of it, right?
**[22:56] Vanity**
"Token" is a general term for a cryptographic
asset issued via blockchain technology!
**[22:58] Sign**
"Token" is a general term for a cryptographic assets issued via blockchain technology
**[23:03] Miracle**
So non-fungible tokens are cryptographic
assets that are one-of-a-kind?
**[23:06] Sign**
Non-fungible tokens are cryptographic assets that are one-of-a-kind
**[23:09] Vanity**
That's right.
**[23:11] Vanity**
The inability to make a copy of
them means you can't make fakes.
***SIGN*** Since they can't be faked, they're really secure. They're used for appraisals for digital art, too!
**[23:15] Miracle**
So they're really secure!
**[23:17] Vanity**
They're also excellent for appraisals and
proofs of authenticity for digital art!
**[23:23] Vanity**
That's what NFTs are!
**[23:25] Miracle**
So that's an NFT...
**[23:28] Vanity**
Now on to our next problem...
**[23:31] Miracle**
I need to get some sugar in my bloodstream
or my head won't work right!
**[23:34] Miracle**
So that's all for this week!
See you next time!

* but since I wasn't sure where to start,*
**[00:15] Miracle**
*I just sang it the way I got it!*
**[00:17] Miracle**
*And then Noelle wanted to talk to me!*
**[00:20] (Flashback) Noelle**
Seeing lazy girls like you
makes me really annoyed.
**[00:24] Miracle**
*I was so shocked! But then...*
**[00:26] (Flashback) Chris**
I understand that you're worrying
a lot and thinking a lot.

**[00:35] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[00:46] [SONG] Song**
The ground I stood on only looked distorted
**[00:51] [SONG] Song**
Because I saw it through tears of frustration
**[00:56] [SONG] Song**
But standing still isn’t like me!
**[01:01] [SONG] Song**
So I ran like crazy until I was out of breath
**[01:07] [SONG] Song**
No matter how many times I
get discouraged, I still love it
**[01:11] [SONG] Song**
I believe in my friends, and in
the me that’s chasing my dream
**[01:20] [SONG] Song**
Let our sparkling minds spout up
**[01:22] [SONG] Song**
Ride on this future wave!
We’ll go beyond this unstoppable thrill
**[01:27] [SONG] Song**
Race through with all our might
to find the sky we want to see
**[01:32] [SONG] Song**
Each time a dream comes true, the new "now"
is my new starting line, over and over without end
**[01:38] [SONG] Song**
Ride toward the future! The next step we take
**[01:43] [SONG] Song**
Will give rise to opportunity, as
much as all the courage we have
**[01:47] [SONG] Song**
Our shared wish binds us together
as we ride this tailwind
**[01:53] [SONG] Song**
How far can we go? With
our hands linked tightly
**[01:58] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[02:05] Miracle**
~Andante of Confusion~
**[02:05] Miracle**
~Andante of Confusion~
**[02:12] marumaru**
Hey...
**[02:15] marumaru**
Why do you keep coming here?
**[02:19] Miracle**
Because I decided I'd do my best!
**[02:21] marumaru**
Sure. Great. But why here?
**[02:26] marumaru**
And...
**[02:27] marumaru**
Why did you bring somebody else with you?
**[02:29] Chris**
Because I want to be with Miracle.
**[02:31] Miracle**
Right?
**[02:32] marumaru**
But why here, of all places?
**[02:36] Miracle**
Hey Chris, how was my dance?
**[02:40] Chris**
You were dancing.
**[02:42] Miracle**
I mean, yes,
**[02:44] Miracle**
but don't you have any suggestions,
or ways I could improve?
**[02:50] Chris**
We can dance together and I'll show you.
**[02:53] Miracle**
Really? Yeah!
**[02:56] marumaru**
Could you please do that somewhere else?
**[03:13] Miracle**
I'm so tired!
**[03:14] marumaru**
Would you please not use me as a pillow?
**[03:18] Miracle**
Why not? I'm tired!
**[03:20] marumaru**
Please stop!
**[03:23] Miracle**
Chris, you're amazing. Why aren't you tired?
**[03:26] Chris**
I am.
**[03:30] Miracle**
I need to get more stamina!
**[03:32] Miracle**
Okay! One more time!
**[03:38] Chris**
Miracle, why are you working so hard?
**[03:41] Miracle**
Why?
**[03:43] Miracle**
Remember what Noelle said?
**[03:46] Miracle**
I realized that she's right.
**[03:50] Miracle**
If I have time to make excuses,
**[03:52] Miracle**
I should be spending that time practicing
as hard as I can so that I can be my best!
**[03:59] Miracle**
I'm just an ordinary girl, you know.
**[04:02] Chris**
Ordinary?
**[04:03] Miracle**
That's right. I was born to an ordinary
family, with ordinary parents.
**[04:08] Miracle**
Who drove an ordinary car.
**[04:11] Miracle**
I've lived an ordinary life.
I had nothing to give me confidence.
**[04:17] Miracle**
But when I met AI-chan and
learned about virtual artists...
**[04:21] Miracle**
I realized that here,
even an ordinary girl like me
**[04:23] Miracle**
can become the girl she's
always dreamed of being!
**[04:27] Miracle**
That's how it seemed to me!
**[04:32] Miracle**
So I'm going to do my best!
**[04:34] Miracle**
That's my raison d'être!
**[04:39] Chris**
Raison d'être...
**[04:42] Miracle**
Maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration.
**[04:46] Miracle**
Now let's get back to work, Chris!
**[04:48] Miracle**
Thanks for helping!
**[04:50] Chris**
Sure.
**[04:53] Chris**
Why not try to focus on the
start of the chorus a bit more?
**[04:56] Miracle**
Got it! I'll try!
**[04:58] Miracle**
Several Days Later
**[05:04] Miracle**
Well?
**[05:05] Chris**
You've gotten better.
**[05:06] Miracle**
Really?!
**[05:07] Miracle**
It's because you helped me!
**[05:11] Miracle**
What about you, marumaru?
**[05:12] Miracle**
Well?
**[05:13] marumaru**
Well, it was probably fine!
**[05:17] Miracle**
Okay! I'll go dance on stage. Watch me.
**[05:22] [SONG] Song**
Wonder heart connect the rainbow
**[05:26] [SONG] Song**
towards a future where you'll
find a bright, refreshing wind
**[05:39] [SONG] Song**
My alarm clock rings and
I rush out in the morning
**[05:46] [SONG] Song**
The constant rain makes me want to give up
**[05:52] [SONG] Song**
*The constant rain makes me want to give up*
**[05:53] [SONG] Song**
*But I want to nurture the feelings...*
**[05:56] Miracle**
How was I?
**[05:57] Miracle**
It feels like this is the
best I've done so far!
**[06:02] Chris**
It was the best you've done so far, I think.
**[06:05] Miracle**
Really? Thanks!
**[06:07] Miracle**
What was bad, then?
**[06:08] Chris**
Bad?
**[06:10] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[06:11] Miracle**
I want to get better! Tell me!
**[06:18] Miracle**
It can be something besides
the performance itself.
**[06:20] Miracle**
Did you notice anything?
**[06:23] Chris**
Your talk...
**[06:25] Miracle**
My talk?
**[06:26] Miracle**
Like how?
**[06:30] Miracle**
What do you think, marumaru?
**[06:34] marumaru**
I don't know, 'cause I didn't
watch that carefully, but...
**[06:37] Miracle**
Go on and say it!
**[06:40] marumaru**
It was... okay, I guess.
**[06:42] marumaru**
None of it was really exciting to listen to.
**[06:45] Miracle**
That's harsh for somebody
who didn't really watch it!
**[06:47] marumaru**
If you really want to know what
I think... you're ordinary.
**[06:51] marumaru**
*Ordinary... ordinary... ordinary...*
**[06:54] Miracle**
No!
**[06:57] Miracle**
* They praised my dancing, but now the wall*
* of "ordinary" is blocking my path again...*
**[07:10] Miracle**
Ordinary
**[07:12] Miracle**
I'm sick of being ordinary!
**[07:16] Chris**
Practice.
**[07:19] Miracle**
What?
**[07:20] Chris**
You got better at dancing.
You can get better at talking, too.
**[07:23] Chris**
Good luck.
**[07:26] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[07:27] Miracle**
I'll just have to work hard.
**[07:29] Miracle**
Okay, next is practicing talking!
**[07:36] marumaru**
So you're doing that here, too...
**[07:39] Miracle**
AI-chan's the best.
**[07:42] Miracle**
Her talk is perfect!
**[07:44] AI**
She feels like she's just talking,
**[07:46] AI**
but she keeps things moving and
what she says is interesting.
**[07:49] AI**
And she's good at ad-libbing.
**[07:51] Miracle**
And she has a chipper, cute voice.
**[07:55] Miracle**
Hello, there! I'm Kizuna AI.
**[07:58] Miracle**
I'm going to stream a game today!
**[08:01] Chris**
You're copying her?
**[08:02] Miracle**
Well? Do I sound like her?
**[08:04] Chris**
No.
**[08:06] Miracle**
How can I learn to talk like AI-chan?
**[08:09] Miracle**
How do I practice something like that?
**[08:13] marumaru**
Um...
**[08:15] Miracle**
marumaru, do you have any ideas?
**[08:17] marumaru**
Would you let me go?
**[08:19] Miracle**
Why?
**[08:20] marumaru**
This is really awkward.
**[08:22] Miracle**
Don't worry! For me, it's really relaxing!
**[08:25] Chris**
Why not stream yourself talking a bunch?
**[08:29] Miracle**
Stream?
**[08:30] Chris**
You got better at dancing by
doing it again and again.
**[08:33] Chris**
So if you talk a bunch, too...
**[08:35] Miracle**
I see.
**[08:36] Miracle**
I might get better.
**[08:38] Miracle**
But what can I talk about on my own?
**[08:42] Miracle**
I know!
**[08:45] Miracle**
It's time for
**[08:45] Miracle**
It's time for Miracle's Mira-Talk!
**[08:46] Miracle**
Miracle's Mira-Talk!
**[08:48] Miracle**
I'm going to start streaming myself doing a
bunch of talking, so I can get better at it!
**[08:54] Miracle**
I hope you'll help me practice!
**[08:57] Miracle**
I've got a guest with me today,
the virtual artist, Chris-san.

**[09:53] marumaru**
Would you please let go of me?
**[09:55] Miracle**
I just realized that I've
never had a guest on before.
**[10:01] Miracle**
Is there some way not to get nervous?
**[10:04] Chris**
Why don't you answer questions
instead of asking them?
**[10:08] Miracle**
That's it!

**[10:58] marumaru**
Let me go!
**[11:16] Miracle**
Hi, there.
**[11:23] Miracle**
Th-Thank you.
**[11:33] Miracle**
It is really relaxing...
**[11:35] Miracle**
N-No!
**[11:41] Quan**
Did something happen?
**[11:44] Quan**
You usually talk more.
**[11:47] Miracle**
Oh, yeah.
**[11:49] Miracle**
Of course...
**[11:51] Quan**
If I'm wrong, then okay, but...
**[11:55] Miracle**
I'm actually not good at it.
**[11:59] Miracle**
Talking.
**[12:00] Quan**
You're not?
**[12:01] Miracle**
I mean... I'm ordinary at it, I guess.
**[12:05] Quan**
Ordinary...
**[12:07] Miracle**
I'm realizing how hard it is to
entertain the people who watch me.
**[12:15] Quan**
I see.
**[12:16] Miracle**
Yes.
**[12:19] Quan**
Me, too.
**[12:21] Quan**
I'm not very good at
talking to people, either.
**[12:25] Quan**
But there must be something...
**[12:28] Miracle**
No, it's okay!
**[12:31] Miracle**
Actually, I'm sorry I keep
talking to you, then...
**[12:36] Quan**
That's not what I meant.
**[12:38] Miracle**
R-Really?
**[12:40] Quan**
Yeah.
**[12:46] Miracle**
For some reason...
**[12:49] Miracle**
I don't know why, but I felt like
if I came here, it would help.
**[12:58] Miracle**
Um, thank you for the tea.
**[13:01] Miracle**
It was delicious.
**[13:02] Quan**
I see.
**[13:03] Miracle**
Yes! I think I can try a little more!
**[13:08] Miracle**
Bye!
**[13:18] Miracle**
I failed again.
**[13:21] Chris**
"Miracle's Extreme Talk."
**[13:23] Chris**
It's a good title but...
**[13:25] Miracle**
When I was talking, I had *no idea*
how to make it extreme.
**[13:31] Miracle**
Actually, the comments were
more extreme than I was!
***SIGN*** I don't understand!
***SIGN*** I don't get what you're saying!
***SIGN*** Get it straight in your head before you start talking!
***SIGN*** I don't follow.
**[13:38] Miracle**
It's over.
**[13:39] Miracle**
Talking bad. Talking scary.
**[13:42] Chris**
It was such a shock,
she can't speak anymore.
**[13:44] marumaru**
Would you please not squeeze me?
**[13:46] Miracle**
It helps me calm down.
**[13:48] marumaru**
I'm not a stress ball...
**[13:49] Miracle**
Forget it!
**[13:50] Miracle**
I'll just stay bad at talking!
**[13:56] marumaru**
I thought you didn't like being ordinary.
**[14:00] marumaru**
You said that in this world, you can
be whatever you want to be, right?
**[14:05] Miracle**
Yeah...
**[14:06] marumaru**
Sure, in this virtual world you can
become anything, and do anything.
**[14:11] marumaru**
But...
**[14:13] marumaru**
Time passes just like it
does in the real world.
**[14:17] marumaru**
Giving up something because you're bad...
**[14:21] marumaru**
Isn't that the most ordinary thing of all?
**[14:27] Miracle**
Got it.
**[14:29] Miracle**
I'll work a little harder!
**[14:32] Miracle**
'Cause I want to be like AI-chan!
**[14:35] marumaru**
Yeah.

hardest at talking today!
**[14:44] Miracle**
Speaking of trying hard,
**[14:46] Miracle**
there was a person who put virtual silicon
**[14:48] Miracle**
into their head so that they could
be a virtual sumo wrestler.
**[14:51] Miracle**
Guess that makes them a virtual try-hard!

"This is strange. This doesn't make sense."
**[15:16] Miracle**

I was up all night.

Someone left this comment.
**[16:24] Chris**
"She's so free-spirited."
**[16:27] Chris**
I realized when I saw it... that in this
world you can be whatever you want to be.
**[16:32] Miracle**
I'd thought I'd been doing what I wanted to
do so that I could be like AI-chan, but...
**[16:37] Chris**
But?
**[16:38] Miracle**
Maybe I was tied down by the idea
that I *had* to be like AI-chan?
**[16:43] marumaru**
*That was you being tied down?*
**[16:46] marumaru**
I should've been more free
to do whatever I wanted.
**[16:51] Chris**
Did you find what you want to do?
**[16:54] Miracle**
Yes! A way I can talk a lot
about whatever I want!
**[16:58] Chris**
You're okay? You won't get nervous?
**[17:01] Miracle**
That's the problem, isn't it?
**[17:03] Miracle**
If only there was a way for me to relax...
**[17:12] Miracle**
Hello! I'm Miracle!
**[17:14] Miracle**
I'm gonna stay relaxed today
so I don't get nervous!
**[17:18] marumaru**
But why do I have to be here?
**[17:22] Miracle**
Today I want to talk about...
**[17:24] Miracle**
Kizuna AI-chan!
**[17:25] Sign**
I'm about to go onstage at the Virtual Grid Awards
**[17:25] Sign**
I'm about to go onstage at the Virtual Grid Awards
**[17:27] Sign**
Yep-
**[17:27] Sign**
Yep-
**[17:28] Miracle**
I'm going to tell you all about
what makes AI-chan so special!
**[17:30] Sign**
I won the Lapin d'Or at
the Virtual Grid Awards!
**[17:30] Sign**
I won the Lapin d'Or at
the Virtual Grid Awards!
**[17:31] Miracle**
"What makes her special," you ask?
**[17:36] Miracle**
She's a great singer! A great dancer!
**[17:38] Miracle**
A great talker! And she's cute!
**[17:41] Miracle**
Her face, her voice, the way
she moves, it's *all* cute!
**[17:46] Miracle**
But the best part about her is how she
can give courage to an ordinary girl.
**[17:53] Miracle**
I was just an ordinary girl,
with nothing special about me.
**[17:58] Miracle**
But one day, I saw AI-chan on stage...
**[18:02] Miracle**
And I told myself I wanted to be like her!
I wanted to shine like she does!
**[18:09] Miracle**
AI-chan let an ordinary girl like me dream.
**[18:14] Miracle**
She gave me the courage to
try and achieve my dreams.
**[18:17] Miracle**
She's an amazing virtual artist!
**[18:22] Miracle**
And I hope that AI-chan
hears what I'm saying!
**[18:27] Miracle**
AI-chan, I'm...
**[18:32] Sign**
?!
**[18:34] Sign**
Huh?
***SIGN*** The sound cut out.
**[18:36] Miracle**
I'll do my best!
***SIGN*** The stream messed up
at the tail end.
**[18:38] Miracle**
Well? Do you think she heard it?
**[18:38] Sign**
What did she say?
***SIGN*** lol the audio died
**[18:41] [SONG] Miracle**
It sounded like she was saying something nice but...
***SIGN*** I can't hear you!
***SIGN*** What did Miracle-chan say??
**[18:47] Miracle**
I was so proud of myself, too...
**[18:51] marumaru**
It's probably okay.
**[18:53] Miracle**
It's not okay!
**[18:55] Chris**
The comments are incredible.

**[19:38] Miracle**
Did you upload this, marumaru?
**[19:42] marumaru**
I didn't know what to do when
the audio cut out, but yeah...
**[19:46] Miracle**
Thank you, marumaru!
**[19:49] marumaru**
Let me go...
**[19:52] marumaru**
I-I didn't do anything special.
**[19:55] Miracle**
No.
**[19:58] Miracle**
I was able to do my best because
you were there for me!
**[20:03] (Flashback) marumaru**
Sure, in this virtual world you can
become anything, and do anything.
**[20:08] (Flashback) marumaru**
But...
**[20:10] (Flashback) marumaru**
Time passes just like it

Giving up something because you're bad...
**[20:17] (Flashback) marumaru**
Isn't that the most ordinary thing of all?
**[20:20] Miracle**
It's because you told me that...
**[20:24] marumaru**
I don't think I did anything that special...
**[20:28] Miracle**
Okay, I'm gonna work even harder!
**[20:31] Miracle**
Yay!
**[20:34] marumaru**
Don't use me as a pillow!
**[20:36] Miracle**
My stream's over!
**[20:38] Miracle**
Time for a break!
**[20:39] marumaru**
That doesn't mean you can
use me as a pillow, though!
**[20:43] Miracle**
It's fine!
**[20:44] Miracle**
Being with you makes me feel so relaxed!

**[22:55] Chris**
It matched the line length perfectly,

but it lacked any kind of surprise
and wasn't very interesting.

**[00:39] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[00:50] [SONG] Song**
The ground I stood on only looked distorted
**[00:55] [SONG] Song**
Because I saw it through tears of frustration
**[01:00] [SONG] Song**
But standing still isn’t like me!
**[01:05] [SONG] Song**
So I ran like crazy until I was out of breath
**[01:11] [SONG] Song**
No matter how many times I
get discouraged, I still love it
**[01:15] [SONG] Song**
I believe in my friends, and in
the me that’s chasing my dream
**[01:24] [SONG] Song**
Let our sparkling minds spout up
**[01:26] [SONG] Song**
Ride on this future wave!
We’ll go beyond this unstoppable thrill
**[01:31] [SONG] Song**
Race through with all our might
to find the sky we want to see
**[01:36] [SONG] Song**
Each time a dream comes true, the new “now”
is my new starting line, over and over without end
**[01:42] [SONG] Song**
Ride toward the future! The next step we take
**[01:47] [SONG] Song**
Will give rise to opportunity, as
much as all the courage we have
**[01:51] [SONG] Song**
Our shared wish binds us together
as we ride this tailwind
**[01:57] [SONG] Song**

Listen, does your system make you
dance when you check my ranking?
**[02:45] Vanity**
* If you want to turn off my dance,*
* you can do it from the options menu.*
**[02:49] Vanity**
*Set the "Dance Mode" option to "Off."*
**[02:53] Miracle**
Continue.
**[02:55] Vanity**

I only went up 15 places!
**[03:12] Vanity**
*You're in the top 500!*
**[03:14] Miracle**
That doesn't make me feel better!
**[03:17] Vanity**
*You should also be aware that...*
**[03:19] Miracle**
What? What?
**[03:20] Miracle**
Did my Linker numbers go way up?
**[03:22] Vanity**
* If you purchase the maracas*
* available on the ADEN shop app,*
**[03:27] Vanity**
*you'll be able to dance more.*
**[03:30] Miracle**
*That's* what I should be aware of?!
**[03:34] Miracle**
Yesterday I had 91...
**[03:37] Miracle**
Today I've got 97...
**[03:40] Miracle**
Why?
**[03:47] Miracle**
At times like this...
**[03:49] marumaru**
Zzzz...
**[03:50] Miracle**
marumaru!
**[03:56] Miracle**
I went so viral! Why? Why?
**[04:04] marumaru**
You're aware that an AI that decides
your Virtual Artist channel ranking, right?
**[04:09] Miracle**
Well, yes.
**[04:10] marumaru**
The AI takes into account a lot of things
besides just your performance and talk.
**[04:16] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[04:17] marumaru**
Your rank won't go up much
from just one viral video.
**[04:22] Miracle**
I see.
**[04:25] Miracle**
Then...
**[04:28] Miracle**
Maybe I'll stream this?
**[04:33] [SONG] Miracle ED**
I became aware of my love
**[04:34] Miracle**
Well? Well?
**[04:35] Miracle**
It's the concert I did
in class the other day.
**[04:37] Miracle**
I think it's pretty good...
**[04:40] marumaru**
You're not thinking again...
**[04:43] Miracle**
The rest of the class liked it,
and I didn't mess up.
**[04:44] [SONG] Miracle ED**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[04:47] Miracle**
It should go great!
**[04:49] [SONG] Miracle ED**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[04:54] [SONG] Miracle ED**
The neon of the electronic world where
we intersect is burned into my brain
**[04:59] [SONG] Miracle ED**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[05:05] [SONG] Miracle ED**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[05:10] [SONG] Miracle ED**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[05:15] [SONG] Miracle ED**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[05:20] [SONG] Miracle ED**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying
**[05:23] [SONG] Miracle ED**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[05:28] [SONG] Miracle ED**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[05:32] [SONG] Miracle ED**
*I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form*
**[05:32] Miracle**
How'd I do? How'd I do?
**[05:33] [SONG] Miracle ED**
*May—*
**[05:36] Miracle**
Why?
**[05:38] [SONG] Sign at 5**
The lyrics are great!
They're so awesome, right?
Did you hear the new song for
the Virtual Grid Award?
This song she's singing now?
**[05:40] Miracle**
They're just talking about the song itself.
**[05:42] marumaru**
Yeah.
**[05:44] Miracle**
That's right...
**[05:46] Miracle**
Everybody's doing their best to
make it through the qualifiers.
**[05:56] Miracle**
Sorry to interrupt your nap.

How's it going, Miracle?
Is your ranking going up?
**[06:08] Miracle**
Not as much as I'd like...
**[06:10] Miracle**
I'm practicing dancing and
talking as much as I can.
**[06:13] Miracle**
I think it's coming along, but...
**[06:17] Miracle**
Maybe that song isn't right for me.
**[06:21] Miracle**
Maybe I'm just being silly.

Yeah, see you.
**[06:45] Miracle**
N-Noelle?
**[06:47] Miracle**
You're Noelle right?
**[06:48] Miracle**
You're the exact same in real life, huh?
**[06:50] Miracle**
You look so cool even in real-life!
**[06:53] Noelle**
I know. Everyone tells me that.
**[06:56] Miracle**
Oh... of course.
**[07:00] Noelle**
You...
**[07:01] Miracle**
Yes?
**[07:02] Noelle**
You were acting pretty cocky
back there, weren't you?
**[07:05] Miracle**
What?
**[07:06] Noelle**
Stop messing around!
**[07:10] Miracle**
Um...
**[07:11] Miracle**
Sorry.
**[07:13] Miracle**
*She's angry about something again.*
**[07:15] Miracle**
*Why does she keep giving me a hard time?*
**[07:17] Miracle**
*She's scary!*
**[07:20] Noelle**
Come with me.
**[07:22] Miracle**
Huh? But I haven't finished my
Fresh Strawberry Cream Frappuvaniccino!
**[07:26] Noelle**
No whining.
**[07:27] Miracle**
B-But it's their most recommended item!
**[07:30] Noelle**
No whining.
**[07:36] Machine**
*Ready?*
**[07:39] Machine**
*Ready?*
**[07:45] Miracle**
Hey, where are we going?
**[07:49] Miracle**
*She's ignoring me?*
**[07:51] Miracle**
Oh, Chris.
**[07:53] Miracle**
Chris!
**[07:54] Miracle**
Hey! Hey!
**[07:58] Miracle**
H-Help me, Chris!
**[08:01] Miracle**
Noelle's angry about something again.
**[08:03] Chris**
Are you angry?
**[08:04] Miracle**
*She just straight-up asked her!*
**[08:07] Noelle**
Who are you?
**[08:08] Chris**
Chris.
**[08:10] Chris**
Miracle's friend.
**[08:13] Miracle**
C-Chris, this is Noelle.
**[08:16] Chris**
I know. I've seen her.
**[08:18] Miracle**
Right.
**[08:20] Miracle**
Noelle's famous! Everyone looks up to her.
**[08:23] Miracle**
She's great!
**[08:26] Miracle**
*What's her problem?*
**[08:29] Miracle**
Okay, we'll be going.
**[08:31] Noelle**
We're going.
**[08:34] Miracle**
Right!
**[08:35] Miracle**
You come too, Chris!
**[08:37] Miracle**
You want to come, right?
So let's go together!
**[08:40] Miracle**
Okay? Okay? Okaaay?
**[08:42] Noelle**
What are you talking about?
**[08:44] Miracle**
You'll go, right Chris-san?
**[08:46] Chris**
I will if you're going, Miracle.
**[08:54] Miracle**
Um... what are we doing here?
**[08:58] Noelle**
As a fellow student at ADEN Academy,
I'm ashamed of you!
**[09:03] Miracle**
Why?
**[09:04] Chris**
Did you do something shameful, Miracle?
**[09:07] Miracle**
Um...
**[09:09] Noelle**
I told you before, right?
**[09:11] Noelle**
That I hate the way you're making
excuses while you stream!
**[09:18] Miracle**
Oh, that?
**[09:19] Noelle**
Yes, that!
**[09:21] Noelle**
You're just doing every idea that pops into your
head without stopping to think for even a second!
**[09:27] Noelle**
What is your problem?
**[09:29] Miracle**
Um...
**[09:30] Noelle**
Do you think liking Kizuna AI a lot is
enough to make you a top virtual artist?
**[09:35] Noelle**
Like earlier today, you just took a video
from class and threw it up online.
**[09:40] Noelle**
You're not thinking at all!
**[09:42] Noelle**
Why would you think that would work?
**[09:44] Noelle**
And then you blame the song and
say it's not right for you?
**[09:47] Noelle**
Aren't you embarrassed?
**[09:49] Miracle**
O-Oh, that was...
**[09:50] Noelle**
No excuses!
**[09:55] Noelle**
Be ready.
**[09:57] Noelle**
My lessons are tough!
**[10:03] Miracle**
Um...
**[10:06] Miracle**
Lessons? What lessons?
**[10:07] Noelle**
I refuse to just sit back and watch
**[10:09] Noelle**
while someone like you tries to
half-ass their way through school!
**[10:14] Miracle**
Half-ass?
**[10:16] Noelle**
Yeah.
**[10:16] Noelle**
So I'm going to teach you and
hopefully make you a little better.
**[10:20] Miracle**
But, I'm not...
**[10:21] Noelle**
My virtual artist channel ranking is 12.
**[10:24] Noelle**
What's yours?
**[10:25] Miracle**
489.
**[10:28] Miracle**
B-But...
**[10:30] Miracle**
I'm trying everything I can think of...
**[10:33] Noelle**
Yeah, you've tried everything
you could think of.
**[10:35] Noelle**
And none of it is working, right?
**[10:38] Noelle**
Even if you think it should work,
it's not connecting with anyone.
**[10:41] Noelle**
Listen to me. Start by
facing the song head on.
**[10:45] Miracle**
Face the song?
**[10:47] Noelle**
Really think about it. Don't just
sing it and be done with it.
**[10:50] Noelle**
Then you'll know what it means
to connect with someone.
**[10:55] Miracle**
Face the song...
**[10:57] Miracle**
Connect...
**[11:00] Miracle**
What does that mean?
**[11:02] Miracle**
There's the song... and then I do
the dance I learned in class...
**[11:06] Miracle**
And then... and then...
**[11:07] Noelle**
That makes you no different than a
singing, dancing machine, right?
**[11:08] Vanity**
Shake shake shake.
**[11:10] Vanity**
Nnn-pah!
**[11:12] Miracle**
But it's all I can do to just sing the
song and dance without messing up...
**[11:17] Noelle**
And the result of that is
the video you just upped?
**[11:19] Miracle**
But...
**[11:21] Miracle**
But I'm trying to be like AI-chan, and
always be happy and cheerful when I sing...
**[11:26] Noelle**
That's not all you learned
from Kizuna AI, is it?
**[11:31] Miracle**
What I learned from AI-chan?
**[11:36] Noelle**
Okay, let's start with this.
***SIGN*** Others
***SIGN*** Dream
***SIGN*** Myself
***SIGN*** Bonds
**[11:44] Noelle**
Start by feeling words with colors.
**[11:46] Chris**
Feel words...
**[11:47] Miracle**
With colors?
**[11:48] Noelle**
Start with this word.
***SIGN*** Dream
**[11:50] Noelle**
What do you imagine in your head
when you hear the word "dream"?
***SIGN*** Dream
**[11:56] Miracle**
Dream...?
**[11:58] Miracle**
Well, "goals," "the person I want to be,"
"something amazing!"
**[12:01] Miracle**
Something like that?
**[12:02] Miracle**
It lit up.
***SIGN*** Dream
**[12:09] Noelle**
To me, a dream is something
I absolutely can't fail at.
**[12:13] Noelle**
Something I'll reach after
working hard every day.
**[12:15] Noelle**
That's how I see it.
***SIGN*** Dream
***SIGN*** Dream
**[12:17] Chris**
A different color than Miracle.
**[12:19] Noelle**
Even if it's the same word,
**[12:21] Noelle**
different people feel different things.
**[12:24] Noelle**
And these lights show that.
***SIGN*** Dream
***SIGN*** Dream
**[12:27] Miracle**
Oh...
**[12:29] Miracle**
So this word...
***SIGN*** Family
***SIGN*** Family
**[12:32] Miracle**
Oh!
**[12:34] Miracle**
It's orange!
**[12:35] Chris**
A warm light...
**[12:38] Chris**
To you, your family is...
**[12:40] Miracle**
Um, something precious, that I can feel
with me even when we're apart, maybe?
***SIGN*** Family
**[12:53] Miracle**
What about you, Chris?
***SIGN*** Family
**[12:56] Miracle**
For you, it's pure white!
***SIGN*** Family
**[13:00] Miracle**
It's the same word,
but the color is different.
***SIGN*** Family
***SIGN*** Light
***SIGN*** Sparkle
***SIGN*** Adoration
***SIGN*** Future
***SIGN*** Romance
***SIGN*** Singing
***SIGN*** Luck
***SIGN*** Sound
***SIGN*** Friends
***SIGN*** Bonds
***SIGN*** Bonds
***SIGN*** Ideals
***SIGN*** Miracle
***SIGN*** Normal
**[13:21] Noelle**
How would you express this word?
***SIGN*** Love
***SIGN*** Love
**[13:27] Miracle**
Hmm, I don't think the word
alone's enough for me to say.
**[13:33] Noelle**
That's right. Some words change depending on
your feelings or the situation you're in.
***SIGN*** Love
**[13:38] Noelle**
A love that you share with another person.
**[13:41] Noelle**
A love that you feel but
the other person doesn't.
**[13:44] Noelle**
A love that you feel when you're
with someone you care about deeply.
***SIGN*** Love
**[13:48] Noelle**
The love you feel when you've lost them.
**[13:53] Chris**
They're all different.
***SIGN*** Love
**[13:54] Miracle**
I get it. I need to feel
these colors in the lyrics.
***SIGN*** Love
**[13:59] Noelle**
How you interpret the lyrics,
how you express them...
***SIGN*** Wonder heart connect the rainbow towards a future where you'll find a bright, refreshing wind
My alarm clock rings and I rush out in the morning
The constant rain makes me want to give up
But I want to nurture the feelings that have sprouted
inside me because I believe a spring wind will blow
Even if the world I dreamed of is far away and feels like a mirage
I can't stop my heart now that it's crossed over dimensions
Wonder heart the path I've walked to get this far is what will connect the rainbow
***SIGN*** The path to a still-unseen future I want to keep on singing!
Cause if there's a rainbow in my heart I know tomorrow will have clear skies too
At twilight the stars twinkle I make a vow to a morning star
Waving my hand at the future
**[14:04] Noelle**
Everyone will have their own interpretation
of what the song is trying to say.
**[14:09] Noelle**
But if you want to express what you
felt from it in your own way...
**[14:13] Miracle**
You need to give your
own color to the words,
**[14:16] Miracle**
and breathe life into the song!
***SIGN*** towards a future where you'll find
**[14:22] Miracle**
*It's strange...*
**[14:23] Miracle**
* It's like a different*
* song than it was before.*
**[14:26] Miracle**
*It's an up-tempo song, but that's not all.*
**[14:29] Miracle**
* There's a sadness that connects*
* to the feelings in the chorus!*
**[14:46] Miracle**
It's beautiful, isn't it?
**[14:48] Chris**
Beautiful...
**[14:50] Noelle**
Until now, you've never cared
about any song you've sung.
**[14:53] Noelle**
You've never tried to understand the lyrics.
**[14:57] Miracle**
She's angry again?
**[14:59] Noelle**
That's why your performance was
so inconsistent with the lyrics.
**[15:02] Miracle**
Okay, I admit it.
**[15:05] Noelle**
If you understand the lyrics,
your body will move on its own.
**[15:09] Noelle**
Only when you can express
them with your whole body
**[15:12] Noelle**
will artist and song connect.
**[15:15] Miracle**
I see.
**[15:17] Chris**
I see.
**[15:18] Noelle**
But this is just the very first step!
**[15:20] Noelle**
First Step
**[15:22] Noelle**
First Step
**[15:22] Miracle**
I hadn't even taken the first step, had I?
**[15:26] Chris**
Miracle, are you okay?
**[15:29] Noelle**
That's why I said you're an embarrassment.
**[15:32] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[15:34] Miracle**
But...
**[15:36] Miracle**
I think I can do it!
**[15:39] Miracle**
Thanks to you, I think I can connect!
**[15:42] Noelle**
We virtual artists express
ourselves in a virtual world,
**[15:46] Noelle**
in infinite ways that would
be impossible in reality.
**[15:55] Noelle**
Kizuna AI said it, right?
**[15:57] Noelle**
Here you can do anything. Be anything.
**[16:06] Noelle**
It's up to the virtual artist to use
those infinite ways to create something.
**[16:12] Noelle**
In other words, it's up to you from now on!
**[16:15] Miracle**
Yes...
**[16:16] Miracle**
If I do it right, there are
infinite possibilities!
**[16:20] Miracle**
So I want to connect... more and more!
**[16:29] [SONG] Song**
Wonder heart connect the rainbow
**[16:32] [SONG] Song**
towards a future where you'll
find a bright, refreshing wind
**[16:45] [SONG] Song**
My alarm clock rings and
I rush out in the morning
**[16:52] [SONG] Song**
The constant rain makes me want to give up
**[16:59] [SONG] Song**
But I want to nurture the feelings
that have sprouted inside me
**[17:06] [SONG] Song**
because I believe a spring wind will blow
**[17:11] [SONG] Song**
Even if the world I dreamed of is
far away and feels like a mirage
**[17:18] [SONG] Song**
I can't stop my heart now that
it's crossed over dimensions
**[17:28] [SONG] Song**
Wonder heart the path I've
walked to get this far
**[17:31] [SONG] Song**
is what will connect the rainbow
**[17:35] [SONG] Song**
The path to a still-unseen future
**[17:38] [SONG] Song**
I want to keep on singing!
**[17:42] [SONG] Song**
'Cause if there's a rainbow in my heart
**[17:45] [SONG] Song**
I know tomorrow will have clear skies too
**[17:49] [SONG] Song**
At twilight the stars twinkle
**[17:52] [SONG] Song**
I make a vow to a morning star
**[17:54] [SONG] Song**
Waving my hand at the future
**[18:04] Miracle**
So that's what it means to
connect to the song, right?
**[18:08] Chris**
Your performance was amazing!
**[18:11] Miracle**
Really?
**[18:12] Miracle**
That's great!
**[18:13] Miracle**
It's thanks to Noelle!
**[18:15] Miracle**
I had no idea that it was so important for
a virtual artist to connect with a song.
**[18:19] Noelle**
You finally understand, right?
**[18:21] Miracle**
Yup-yup!
**[18:22] Miracle**
Neither the song nor the virtual
artist can stand on their own.
**[18:26] Miracle**
They need to connect!
**[18:31] Miracle**
I want to connect with the
song on a deeper level,
**[18:34] Miracle**
and express myself in even more ways!
**[18:39] Miracle**
I want to share the song with my own words!
**[18:41] Chris**
Your own words?
**[18:42] Chris**
You're making original lyrics?
**[18:45] Noelle**
Are you just going to chase after
another idea that came into your head?
**[18:48] Miracle**
Well, I guess I got a bit greedy
after what you taught me.
**[18:52] Miracle**
I was thinking I might be
able to get even better...
**[18:55] Noelle**
Don't get cocky just because you
were able to sing it right once!
**[19:00] Noelle**
You know it's not that easy
to write lyrics, right?
**[19:05] Noelle**
I'm using the standard lyrics.
**[19:08] Miracle**
You are?
**[19:09] Miracle**
But I bet you could write your
own lyrics if you wanted to.
**[19:13] Miracle**
Your singing and performance are perfect.
**[19:19] Noelle**
You shouldn't do it unless
you're really dedicated to it.
**[19:23] Noelle**
Bye.
**[19:26] Miracle**
Noelle?
**[19:30] [SONG] Noelle**
Does everything have to be perfect?
**[19:46] [SONG] Song**
I became aware of my love
**[19:58] [SONG] Song**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[20:03] [SONG] Song**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[20:08] [SONG] Song**
The neon of the electronic world where
we intersect is burned into my brain
**[20:13] [SONG] Song**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[20:19] [SONG] Song**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[20:24] [SONG] Song**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[20:29] [SONG] Song**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[20:34] [SONG] Song**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying
**[20:37] [SONG] Song**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[20:42] [SONG] Song**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[20:47] [SONG] Song**
Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[20:52] [SONG] Song**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other
**[20:58] [SONG] Song**
I am waiting for... forever

I was able to change.

**[04:48] Chris**
I'm glad for you, Miracle.
**[04:50] Miracle**

**[04:51] Miracle**
Chris, marumaru, thanks for
coming with me to practice!
**[04:55] Miracle**
I feel like I've got more confidence now!
**[05:02] Chris**
You need to make it even better.
**[05:05] Miracle**
About that... I'm thinking
of writing my own lyrics.
**[05:11] Miracle**
I know now that it's important to understand
the song and lyrics when you sing.
**[05:15] Miracle**
So I want to sing about my own
feelings, in my own words.
**[05:20] Miracle**
Why don't we all do it, right now?
**[05:22] marumaru**
Together?
**[05:24] Chris**
I want to try!
**[05:33] Miracle**
You too, Noelle.
**[05:34] Noelle**
I...
**[05:36] Miracle**
I know you said you wanted to sing with
the provided lyrics, but give it a try.
**[05:41] Miracle**
I'm a little worried about doing it myself,
but I think I can do it if you all try with me!
**[05:46] Miracle**
Maybe you'll change your mind and want
to try original lyrics yourself.
**[05:50] Miracle**
Okay?
**[05:57] Miracle**
Alright, let's do our best!
**[06:07] Miracle**
It's no good! I can't think of anything!
**[06:13] Miracle**
Any luck, marumaru?
**[06:15] marumaru**
Yeah, a little.
**[06:17] Miracle**
Let me see...
**[06:18] Miracle**
"If I turn around, it's all over."
**[06:20] Miracle**
"Days like that cling to me and
won't go away, like a curse."
**[06:28] Miracle**
marumaru, are you going to curse someone?
**[06:32] Chris**
I'm done.
**[06:34] Miracle**
Let me see!
**[06:36] Miracle**
Th-This is...
**[06:38] Miracle**
You wrote too much.
**[06:40] Chris**
Did I screw up?
**[06:41] Miracle**
Chris, how are you going to
match these to the melody?
**[06:44] Chris**
Right?
**[06:45] Miracle**
"Right?"
**[06:46] Miracle**
But it's amazing you can
write all these lyrics.
**[06:48] Miracle**
I couldn't do that.
**[06:50] Chris**
I was praised.
**[06:51] Miracle**
You could do at least ten
variations with this.
**[07:02] (Flashback) Noelle's Sister**
You're the one who'll embarrass yourself.
**[07:06] Miracle**
You done, Noelle?
**[07:08] Miracle**
How's it look? Let me see!
**[07:11] Miracle**
Huh?
**[07:12] Noelle**
I'm not doing it.
**[07:14] Miracle**
I wanted to read your lyrics.
**[07:18] Miracle**
I'm *sure* they'd make a great song!
**[07:20] Miracle**
Are you gonna try it some other time?
**[07:22] Miracle**
If so, then let me...
**[07:23] Noelle**
That's up to me, and not you.
**[07:25] Noelle**
Stop asking questions.
**[07:30] Noelle**
I've got practice. Bye.
**[07:33] Miracle**
Noelle!
**[07:35] Miracle**
What's wrong? Is everything okay?
**[07:38] marumaru**
Maybe you should leave her alone for a bit.
**[07:40] Miracle**
But...
**[07:42] Chris**
Are you worried, Miracle?
**[07:43] Miracle**
Yeah. I'm gonna go take a look.
**[07:48] Chris**
Let's let the young ones talk it out.
**[07:50] marumaru**
You're young, too.
**[07:57] Miracle**
Noelle!
**[08:00] Miracle**
Where is she?
**[08:14] Miracle**
Noelle!
**[08:26] (Flashback) Noelle's Father**
Don't let yourself be satisfied with this.
**[08:28] (Flashback) Noelle's Father**
I know you can do even better.
**[08:31] (Flashback) Noelle**
Yes, Father.
**[08:33] (Flashback) Noelle's Mother**
She's our daughter, after all.
Of course she'll be fine.
**[08:37] (Flashback) Noelle's Mother**
Right, Noelle?
**[08:41] (Flashback) Noelle**
Oww!
**[08:52] Noelle**
*I have to work harder...*
**[08:54] Noelle**
*Because I...*
**[08:56] Noelle**
*I have to be perfect!*
**[09:02] Miracle**
Noelle!
**[09:10] Miracle**
I finally found you!
**[09:14] Miracle**
What's wrong? Did I say something
to make you angry again?
**[09:22] Miracle**
Noelle...
**[09:25] Miracle**
*Did I do something to make her angry?*
**[09:27] Miracle**
* Maybe I started relying on her too*
* much just 'cause she helped me?*
**[09:31] Miracle**
* I invited her to write lyrics without*
* thinking about how she'd feel...*
**[09:35] Miracle**
*What else could it be?*
**[09:37] Miracle**
* Did she find out that during my last practice,*
* I got so tired I fell asleep for 10 minutes?!*
**[09:42] Miracle**
*But I told Chris to keep it a secret!*
**[09:44] Miracle**
*Did Chris betray me?!*
**[09:47] Noelle**
Leave me alone.
**[09:50] Miracle**
Should I go get something for us to drink?
**[09:54] Miracle**
My treat! As thanks for
helping me with lessons!
**[09:57] Miracle**
Hang on a second.
**[10:17] Miracle**
Hehe... I dropped the soda.
**[10:21] Noelle**
How?
**[10:23] Noelle**
How can you smile like that?
**[10:27] Noelle**
I was about to leave you here alone.
**[10:31] Miracle**
Yeah. I could tell.
**[10:33] Noelle**
I keep telling you to leave me alone.
**[10:37] Miracle**
I can't do that! You look so sad!
**[10:43] Miracle**
Here.
**[10:44] Miracle**
This is the one that I didn't drop!
**[10:47] Miracle**
It's my recommendation!
**[10:51] Noelle**
It's not your fault.
**[10:54] Noelle**
I'm just taking it out on you.
**[10:57] Noelle**
It's not that I'm not interested
in writing lyrics.
**[11:01] Miracle**
Is that true?
**[11:03] Miracle**
Then why?
**[11:04] Noelle**
I'm still not at the level where
I can write lyrics. That's all.
**[11:14] (Flashback) Singer**
Thank you.
**[11:17] (Flashback) Singer**
I'll treasure it when I sing it.
**[11:20] Noelle**
Because of my father's job, I knew all about
how important songs and lyrics were.
**[11:26] Noelle**
I thought it was wonderful that they could
bring out what was in the singer's heart.
**[11:30] Noelle**
So when I was young, I used to try to
write songs myself, like my dad did.
**[11:35] Noelle**
Because I wanted to express my
feelings through songs, like he did.
**[11:43] (Flashback) Noelle**
Sister, do you have a second?
**[11:46] Noelle**
I once let my sister hear
the first song I wrote.
**[11:53] (Flashback) Noelle**
What do you think?
**[11:59] (Flashback) Noelle's Sister**
Noelle, what was it you wanted
to get across with this song?
**[12:04] (Flashback) Noelle**
Huh? Well...
**[12:06] (Flashback) Noelle's Sister**
If it's not what you really want to share,
**[12:09] (Flashback) Noelle's Sister**
you shouldn't show it when
it's only halfway done.
**[12:11] (Flashback) Noelle's Sister**
You're the one who'll embarrass yourself.
**[12:14] (Flashback) Noelle's Sister**
You need to make yourself grow.
**[12:18] (Flashback) Noelle**
Myself?
**[12:20] (Flashback) Noelle's Sister**
Yes, whether you're performing
or writing songs,
**[12:24] (Flashback) Noelle's Sister**
it needs to be something
you can be proud of.
**[12:29] (Flashback) Noelle's Sister**
You have the power to make something great!
**[12:33] Noelle**
I'm not proud or perfect yet.
**[12:36] Noelle**
I can't try something new right now...
**[12:40] Noelle**
I wouldn't be able to do it perfectly...

I think you're perfect right now.
**[12:57] Miracle**
You're a good singer and your
performances are great.
**[12:59] Noelle**
That's not true!
**[13:01] Noelle**
I'm not #1 in the rankings and I don't have
anywhere close to my sister's number of Linkers!
**[13:06] Noelle**
I'm...
**[13:08] Noelle**
I'm not perfect at all yet!
**[13:11] Miracle**
Why do you have to be perfect?
**[13:14] Noelle**
Why? Because my family
won't accept me otherwise!
**[13:19] Miracle**
Is that what they told you?
**[13:23] Miracle**
You've been talking about your family a lot,
**[13:25] Miracle**
so I wondered what you thought yourself...
**[13:29] Noelle**
What I thought?
**[13:31] Miracle**
When I first started out as a
virtual artist, I was so happy.
**[13:36] Miracle**
I wasn't any good at dancing or
singing, but I loved streaming.
**[13:41] Miracle**
And ever since you told me about the
importance of connecting with the music,
**[13:44] Miracle**
it's only become more fun!
**[13:46] Miracle**
You're the one who taught me that, Noelle!
**[13:49] Miracle**
Does your family really
want you to be perfect?
**[13:55] Noelle**
Well...
**[13:56] Miracle**
I think it's good to be perfect, sure.
**[14:00] Miracle**
But I think it's more important for
you to be someone you can love!
**[14:07] Miracle**
Why don't you try writing lyrics?
**[14:09] Noelle**
B-But if I can't write them well...
**[14:12] Miracle**
If that happens...
**[14:14] Miracle**
Well, you could just write them again!
**[14:17] Miracle**
Oh, look at the time!
**[14:19] Miracle**
Let's finish our drinks and
head back to the others.
**[14:22] Miracle**
They're probably worried.
**[14:33] Noelle**
What are you doing?
**[14:35] Miracle**
I forgot that I dropped it.
**[14:46] Noelle**
Wow, it even got in your hair.
**[14:49] Miracle**
I got sprayed right in the face.
**[14:51] Miracle**
I'm glad it's warm out today.
**[14:54] Noelle**
This is good.
**[14:56] Miracle**
Right?
**[14:56] Miracle**
They only sell it at the store back there.
**[14:59] Noelle**
Why not feature it on your next video?
**[15:01] Miracle**
That might be a good idea!
**[15:04] Noelle**
Miracle, I'm going to try writing lyrics.
**[15:08] Miracle**
Really?
**[15:09] Noelle**
My family may not accept
it yet, but I want to try.
**[15:13] Noelle**
I think that's the way to make
myself someone I can love.
**[15:17] Miracle**
Yeah, that's a great idea.
**[15:19] Noelle**
Your videos suck, and you post them anyway.
**[15:22] Noelle**
I want to be like you.
**[15:24] Miracle**
Great!
**[15:26] Miracle**
Wait, that was a compliment, right?
**[15:31] Noelle**
Well, probably.
**[15:32] Miracle**
You're making fun of me!
**[15:34] Noelle**
I am! I said it was a compliment.
**[15:37] Miracle**
It was *not* a compliment!
**[15:39] Miracle**
Do you know what your punishment will be?
**[15:42] Miracle**
This!
**[15:43] Noelle**
Hey!
**[15:48] Noelle**
*I think I kind of understand what
my sister was trying to say.*
**[16:06] marumaru**
You're not getting anywhere.
**[16:08] Miracle**
I write and delete, and write and delete...
**[16:10] Miracle**
It's not going anywhere!
**[16:13] Chris**
Just write down all the words
that come into your head.
**[16:17] marumaru**
Isn't that what got her
in trouble last time?
**[16:20] Chris**
That's right, actually.
**[16:22] Miracle**
But I won't give up!
**[16:24] Miracle**
I'll do my best!
**[16:27] Miracle**
N-Noelle!
**[16:28] Noelle**
I figured you'd be here.
**[16:30] Miracle**
What is it?
**[16:32] Noelle**
U-Um...
**[16:34] Noelle**
I tried writing my lyrics.
**[16:36] Miracle**
You were able to?
**[16:38] Noelle**
Yeah.
**[16:39] Noelle**
Will you listen?
**[16:41] Miracle**
I can't wait!
**[16:43] [SONG] Song**
Escalation, charging onwards
**[16:46] [SONG] Song**
A strong prayer heading
off into the far distance
**[16:59] [SONG] Song**
A train following the rails laid out for it
**[17:06] [SONG] Song**
Quivering and telling myself this is destiny
**[17:13] [SONG] Song**
I don't know what the right answer is
**[17:20] [SONG] Song**
But I know somewhere out there,
there's a shining stage
**[17:25] [SONG] Song**
The water's surface that
reflects the truth is scary
**[17:32] [SONG] Song**
but I've decided that I'm jumping in
**[17:42] [SONG] Song**
Escalation, charging onwards
to the place I've decided to go
**[17:49] [SONG] Song**
I want to believe in myself,
and I know I can get stronger
**[17:56] [SONG] Song**
Aiming for greater heights,
the path I follow is original
**[18:03] [SONG] Song**
Taking flight for a free future
**[18:06] [SONG] Song**
Drawing a story that's mine alone
**[18:20] Miracle**
Noelle, that was great!
**[18:23] Chris**
It was wonderful.
**[18:24] marumaru**
The lyrics were great.
**[18:26] Noelle**
Really?
**[18:27] Miracle**
Yes! I was so moved I was shaking!
**[18:31] Miracle**
You really are amazing!
**[18:33] Noelle**
Thanks!
**[18:34] Noelle**
It's thanks to you, Miracle.
**[18:37] Noelle**
I'll become the perfect virtual
artist that I want to be!
**[18:43] Miracle**
Great!
**[18:45] Noelle**
I was so nervous!
**[18:46] Miracle**
You didn't look it.
**[18:49] Noelle**
Really?
**[18:51] Noelle**
Well, I guess I'm just that good.
**[18:54] Miracle**
Wow, you've got such a smirk on your face!
**[18:56] marumaru**
Were those two always that close?
**[18:59] Chris**
Noelle is mysterious.
**[19:02] marumaru**
So are you.
**[19:20] [SONG] Song**
I became aware of my love
**[19:32] [SONG] Song**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[19:37] [SONG] Song**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[19:42] [SONG] Song**
The neon of the electronic world where
we intersect is burned into my brain
**[19:47] [SONG] Song**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[19:53] [SONG] Song**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[19:58] [SONG] Song**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[20:03] [SONG] Song**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[20:08] [SONG] Song**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying
**[20:11] [SONG] Song**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[20:16] [SONG] Song**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[20:21] [SONG] Song**
Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[20:26] [SONG] Song**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other
**[20:32] [SONG] Song**
I am waiting for... forever

Hello, everyone!
**[20:44] Miracle**
It's me, Miracle!
**[20:45] Miracle**
Today I've got an assistant with
me who I'm sure you'll recognize!
**[20:50] Miracle**
Let's have her come onstage!
**[20:52] Miracle**
It's Noelle-san!
**[20:54] Noelle**
Hello, everyone. I'm Noelle!

I'm here to help Miracle-san
on her stream today.
**[21:03] Miracle**
Thank you!
**[21:06] Miracle**
Product Introduction
**[21:06] Miracle**
Now, today we have something
very special to show you.
**[21:11] Noelle**
Whatever could it be?
**[21:14] Miracle**
Here it is!
**[21:15] Miracle**
Bursting with the flavors
of youth, it's Bubbly ADEN!
**[21:17] Miracle**
Bursting with the flavors of youth!
**[21:17] Miracle**
Bubbly ADEN
**[21:19] Noelle**
She let me try some, and its taste
is both refreshing and delicious!
**[21:25] Miracle**
That's right. It's a refreshing
flavor with a crisp lemon taste!
**[21:31] Miracle**
It's also got hints of honey, as well.
**[21:34] Miracle**
The honey flavor keeps it from
being too sour with all of the lemon,
**[21:39] Miracle**
making the level of sweetness just right.
**[21:42] Noelle**
And what's more, the
bitterness of the lemon…
**[21:45] Miracle**
Yes, that's right!
**[21:45] Miracle**
Bursting with the flavors of youth!
**[21:45] Miracle**
Bubbly ADEN
**[21:46] Miracle**
You can still taste the bitterness
of the lemon, which is great!
**[21:50] Miracle**
It accents the taste and makes
it incredibly addicting!
**[21:54] Noelle**
I see, there's both a sweet
and sour taste, which…
**[21:57] Miracle**
Which makes it truly the taste of youth!
**[22:01] Miracle**
And what's more, it's also got bubbly
carbonation, just like the name implies!
**[22:06] Miracle**
It feels so good in your
mouth when you drink it!
**[22:09] Miracle**
The carbonation isn't too strong or too weak,
**[22:13] Miracle**
it's something that people of all
ag… of all ages can enjoy!
**[22:17] Miracle**
Bursting with the flavors of youth!
**[22:17] Miracle**
Bubbly ADEN
**[22:18] Noelle**
You bit your tongue, didn't you?
**[22:20] Miracle**
You can also put ice into a cup and pour
the Bubbly ADEN into it to cool it,
**[22:27] Miracle**
which makes it even more delicious!
**[22:29] Noelle**
It would be perfect for hot days or
when you just get out of the bath!
**[22:33] Miracle**
Tch-tch-tch!
**[22:34] Miracle**
Bursting with the flavors of youth!
**[22:34] Miracle**
Bubbly ADEN
**[22:35] Miracle**
It's not just for summer!
**[22:36] Miracle**
In winter, you can sit under a heated
blanket and drink it while gaming!
**[22:39] Miracle**
The feeling of cold Bubbly ADEN flowing
through your warm body… it's incredible!
**[22:48] Noelle**
U-Uh, okay.
**[22:51] Miracle**
Bubbly ADEN is perfect for
every season! Give it a try!
**[22:58] Noelle**
Now, tell everyone where they can buy it.
**[23:02] Miracle**
Bursting with the flavors of youth!
**[23:02] Miracle**
Bubbly ADEN
**[23:02] Noelle**
You can buy it at the school store near the ADEN lecture halls!
**[23:02] Noelle**
You can buy it at the school store near the ADEN lecture halls!
**[23:02] Miracle**
It's available near the ADEN lecture halls.
**[23:05] Miracle**
It's only available at the ADEN school store.
**[23:08] Noelle**
Everyone, please go give it a try.
**[23:12] Miracle**
One last warning.
**[23:15] Miracle**
This is a carbonated beverage,
so *please* do not shake or drop it!
**[23:20] Miracle**
Something terrible will
happen if you do, so be careful!
**[23:25] Noelle**
That's all the time we have for today.
**[23:28] Noelle**
We're so grateful you took
the time to listen in.
**[23:32] Miracle**
Thank you.
**[23:34] Miracle and Noelle**
Goodbye, everyone!

**[00:44] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[00:55] [SONG] Song**
The ground I stood on only looked distorted
**[01:00] [SONG] Song**
Because I saw it through tears of frustration
**[01:05] [SONG] Song**
But standing still isn’t like me!
**[01:10] [SONG] Song**
So I ran like crazy until I was out of breath
**[01:16] [SONG] Song**
No matter how many times I
get discouraged, I still love it
**[01:20] [SONG] Song**
I believe in my friends, and in
the me that’s chasing my dream
**[01:29] [SONG] Song**
Let our sparkling minds spout up
**[01:31] [SONG] Song**
Ride on this future wave!
We’ll go beyond this unstoppable thrill
**[01:36] [SONG] Song**
Race through with all our might
to find the sky we want to see
**[01:41] [SONG] Song**
Each time a dream comes true, the new “now”
is my new starting line, over and over without end
**[01:47] [SONG] Song**
Ride toward the future! The next step we take
**[01:52] [SONG] Song**
Will give rise to opportunity, as
much as all the courage we have
**[01:56] [SONG] Song**
Our shared wish binds us together
as we ride this tailwind
**[02:02] [SONG] Song**
How far can we go? With
our hands linked tightly
**[02:07] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[02:14] Noelle**
I'm going on a journey to find myself.

**[02:19] Chris**
Goodbye.
**[02:21] Miracle**
Huh? What?
**[02:23] Miracle**
She's gone.
**[02:24] Noelle**
I guess people really do try
to go find themselves, huh?
**[02:27] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[02:29] Noelle**
Hey, what's Chris like?
**[02:32] Miracle**
What's she like...?
**[02:35] Miracle**
We kinda ended up as friends,
but I guess I don't know, either.
**[02:40] marumaru**
She is mysterious, yes.
**[02:42] marumaru/Miracle**
Yes.
**[02:44] Noelle**
Fine, then.
**[02:47] Miracle**
What are you doing, Noelle?
**[02:49] Noelle**
If nobody knows, we'll have to look it up.
**[02:53] Miracle**
Is this her channel?
**[02:56] marumaru**
So you're going to look at her past
streams to see what she's like.
**[03:00] Noelle**
Yes.
**[03:01] [SONG] Song**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[03:06] [SONG] Song**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[03:11] [SONG] Song**
Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[03:16] [SONG] Song**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other
**[03:22] [SONG] Song**
I am waiting for... forever
**[03:28] Miracle**
Chris really is amazing, huh Noelle?
**[03:33] Noelle**
*She's good, yeah.*
**[03:35] Noelle**
*But something's odd...*
**[03:38] Miracle**
What is it?
**[03:39] Noelle**
Nothing.
**[03:40] Noelle**
I was just thinking that
she's a strange girl.
**[03:42] Miracle**
Yeah?
**[03:43] marumaru**
What's this video?
**[03:44] Miracle**
What? What? Will it tell us all about Chris?
**[03:48] Chris**
Hello.
**[03:49] [SONG] Sign**
I'm Philosopher Chris K-ant
**[03:49] Chris**
I'm Chris.
**[03:51] Chris**
In today's video, I'll
be thinking about ants!

**[03:55] Chris**
Here's some ant information you'll
think c-ANT possibly be true!
**[04:01] Chris**
Ants are basically elephants!
***SIGN*** Basically
***SIGN*** Basically elephants
**[04:05] Chris**
You were just thinking that an
elephant is way bigger, right?
**[04:09] Chris**
But we're comparing speed!
***SIGN*** Some ants can move 10 centimeters in a second!
**[04:13] Chris**
Some ants can move 10
centimeters in a second!
***SIGN*** This means they can move 360 meters in an hour.
**[04:19] Chris**
This means they can move
360 meters in an hour.
***SIGN*** An African Elephant moves at 40 kilometers an hour.
**[04:23] Chris**
An African Elephant moves
at 40 kilometers an hour.
**[04:27] Chris**
So you might think that the ants c-ANT win.
**[04:33] Chris**
But let's pretend the length
of an ant is one meter.
***SIGN*** 36 km/hr
***SIGN*** 40 km/hr
**[04:38] Chris**
At that size, their speed would be 36 km/hr.
**[04:43] Chris**
Which means that according
to one way of thinking,
**[04:45] Chris**
ants are basically elephants.
**[04:46] [SONG] Sign**
ants
**[04:47] [SONG] Sign**
ants are basically elephants
**[04:49] Chris**
That's all for today!
**[04:51] Chris**
Ant-ant-ant.
**[04:52] Chris**
Ant-i-vederci.
**[04:55] Noelle**
She's no longer mysterious!
She's just *weird!*
**[04:59] Miracle**
I think I understand Chris even less now.
**[05:04] marumaru**
She said she was going on a
journey to find herself, right?
**[05:08] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[05:09] marumaru**
Maybe she's trying to figure
out who she really is.
**[05:15] Miracle**
Who she really is?
**[05:17] Noelle**
Yeah, this weird-as-hell
ant video is one thing...
**[05:23] Noelle**
But while Chris is a good performer,
**[05:26] Noelle**
she doesn't really have anything
that makes her unique.
**[05:28] marumaru**
She seems like an airhead,
**[05:30] marumaru**
but maybe she's actually trying
to figure out who she is.
**[05:34] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[05:36] Miracle**
Maybe...
**[05:39] Miracle**
Chris was always listening to
me whenever I was upset...
**[05:43] Miracle**
But she was actually upset and
wanted someone to talk to.
**[05:47] Noelle**
Miracle...
**[05:48] Miracle**
Maybe we should go see her.
**[05:51] Noelle**
Go see her?
**[05:53] Miracle**
In real life!
**[05:55] Noelle**
Why real life?
**[05:56] Noelle**
Virtual reality isn't good enough?
**[05:58] Miracle**
Well, you came to see me in
real life without asking!
**[06:01] Noelle**
True, but...
**[06:03] Miracle**
Chris has been with me for a while, and never
talked to me about this stuff before.
**[06:07] Miracle**
So if something's bother her, I want
to talk to her about it in person.
**[06:11] marumaru**
Hey, Miracle.
**[06:12] Miracle**
What?
**[06:13] marumaru**
Has Chris ever told you she wanted
to meet in real life, even once?
**[06:18] Miracle**
No. But don't worry.
**[06:21] Miracle**
I'll make sure it's okay
before I talk to her!
**[06:23] Miracle**
So it's fine, right?
**[06:24] Noelle**
Fine.
**[06:26] Noelle**
If that's what you really want
to do, I'll go with you.
**[06:29] Miracle**
Okay, let's gather at the Entrance!
**[06:35] marumaru**
Oh, dear.
**[06:41] Chris**
*Find... myself.*
**[06:43] Chris**
*Where am I going?*
**[06:47] Chris**
*Who am I?*
**[06:53] Miracle**
Okay, let's go!
**[06:55] Noelle**
You're really excited about this.
**[06:57] Miracle**
Chris has always been there to help me out!
**[07:01] Miracle**
Now I want to help her!
**[07:07] Miracle**
Th-That scared me!
**[07:09] Noelle**
We're not having any luck.
**[07:11] Noelle**
Want to split up and search?
**[07:13] Miracle**
Okay, let's do that.
**[07:17] Noelle**
Roger!
**[07:19] Miracle**
There you are.
**[07:21] Miracle**
H-Hello.
**[07:23] Q**
What is it?
**[07:24] Miracle**
I'm looking for someone and
thought you might know.
**[07:28] Q**
Why me?
**[07:30] Miracle**
Well, um... I don't know that many people.
**[07:34] Miracle**
And there's nobody else I can ask.
**[07:37] Miracle**
This is her.
**[07:40] Miracle**
Have you seen her before?
**[07:42] Q**
No.
**[07:43] Q**
I think it would be hard to find
someone who looked like that.
**[07:47] Miracle**
I guess this picture's not good enough.
**[07:49] Q**
That's part of it.
**[07:51] Q**
But at ADEN, only about 50% of students use
their real selves as the base for their avatar.
**[07:57] Miracle**
Oh, right!
**[07:58] Miracle**
I wonder if Chris didn't do that, then...
**[08:00] Q**
And...
**[08:02] Q**
A lot of people don't want anyone trying
to get involved in their real-world lives.
**[08:08] Miracle**
Oh, of course.
**[08:11] Miracle**
Sorry to bother you.
**[08:16] Q**
Oh, dear.
**[08:17] Miracle**
Her avatar might not even look like her...
**[08:19] Miracle**
Maybe it's impossible.
**[08:22] Noelle**
Now that you mention it, the odds that
we'll be able to find her are pretty low.
**[08:26] Noelle**
There are ADEN Academies all over the world.
**[08:29] Noelle**
We don't know for sure that the real-world
Chris attends this one, ADEN Theta.
**[08:34] Miracle**
True.
**[08:38] Noelle**
What are you doing?
**[08:40] Miracle**
L-Look...
**[08:45] Noelle**
No way.
**[08:45] Noelle**
There she is.
**[08:48] Noelle**
What do we do?
**[08:49] Miracle**
Leave her.
**[08:50] Noelle**
Why?
**[08:51] Miracle**
She looks fine to me.
**[08:53] Miracle**
And it's probably not right to do this
without thinking about her feelings...
**[09:00] Miracle**
So I'll save it until Chris says she
wants to see me in the real world.
**[09:05] Noelle**
You're okay with that?
**[09:06] Miracle**
Yeah!
**[09:07] Miracle**
I've learned that she's a
student at ADEN Theta.
**[09:10] Miracle**
That's enough for today!
**[09:11] Noelle**
Well, if you say so.
**[09:16] Miracle**
It's been a week.
**[09:18] Miracle**
What's Chris doing?
**[09:21] Miracle**
Chris?!
**[09:25] Miracle**
She finally found who she is!
**[09:31] Chris**
Miracle...
**[09:32] Miracle**
Wait, what happened?!
**[09:37] Miracle**
Didn't you go on a journey to find yourself?
**[09:39] Chris**
Yes.
**[09:40] Chris**
I asked myself, "Why did I decide
to become a virtual artist?"
**[09:46] Chris**
"Why am I doing my performances?"
**[09:50] Chris**
"Who am I?"
**[09:53] Chris**
But I couldn't find an answer.
**[09:55] Chris**
And then I remembered you.
**[09:58] Miracle**
Why?
**[10:00] Chris**
You said...
**[10:02] (Flashback) Miracle**
So I'm going to do my best!
**[10:04] (Flashback) Miracle**
That's my raison d'être!
**[10:08] Chris**
You worked really hard to
discover who you were.
**[10:12] Chris**
If I work hard, maybe I can, too.
**[10:15] Chris**
That's why I...
**[10:16] Miracle**
That's why you...?
**[10:18] Chris**
Came to the world of this game.
**[10:20] Miracle**
Why a game?
**[10:22] Chris**
But even here, I couldn't find
an answer that satisfied me.
**[10:27] Chris**
Maybe I never will.
**[10:30] Miracle**
You don't know that yet, do you?
**[10:33] Miracle**
It's fine!
**[10:35] Miracle**
Leave it to me!
**[10:38] marumaru**
But...
**[10:40] Noelle**
Why do we have to play, too?
**[10:42] Miracle**
If one person can't do it,
then all of us can!
**[10:44] Miracle**
Chris, we'll all help you find yourself!
**[10:50] Chris**
Miracle...
**[10:53] Miracle**
I'm kinda getting excited!
**[10:55] marumaru**
It's not a field trip, okay?
**[10:57] Noelle**
What kind of game is this, anyway?
**[11:00] Chris**
*Grid Treasure Hunt.*
**[11:02] marumaru**
Just like the title suggests, it's
a game where you hunt for treasure.
**[11:05] Chris**
A simulation game where you use tactics
to steal treasure from each other.
**[11:11] Noelle**
Enemies?
**[11:15] marumaru**
She just said it!
**[11:16] Miracle**
Oh, no! Oh, no!
**[11:19] Miracle**
Noelle, watch out!
**[11:24] Adventurer**
Gotcha!
**[11:26] Chris**
Too slow!
**[11:28] Adventurer**
Oh, no!
**[11:31] Miracle**
Wow, Chris!
**[11:33] Chris**
Thank you.
**[11:35] Noelle**
They were nothing.
**[11:37] marumaru**
You didn't do anything.
**[11:40] Miracle**
Chris, where's the treasure?
**[11:42] Chris**
It's a little farther ahead.
**[11:44] Noelle**
This is easy with Chris' help, though.
**[11:47] marumaru**
I had no idea she was so strong.
**[11:50] Chris**
From this point on, we need to be careful.
**[11:52] Miracle**
Aww, you're just being humble.
**[11:55] Chris**
We've entered monster territory.
**[11:58] Miracle**
Monster?
**[12:00] Armor Vanity**
Vani-vani!
**[12:01] Noelle**
Oh, it's just a Vanity!
**[12:04] Chris**
No!
**[12:06] Armor Vanity**
Vani!
**[12:08] Noelle**
No!
**[12:11] marumaru**
It got Noelle!
**[12:13] Miracle**
What do we do?
**[12:14] Chris**
I'll handle it.
**[12:22] Armor Vanity**
Vani!
**[12:25] Miracle**
Chris, you're amazing!
**[12:29] Armor Vanity**
V-Vani...
**[12:32] Miracle**
Wow, you did it!
**[12:33] marumaru**
It feels like you could
clear it all by yourself.
**[12:37] Chris**
By myself?
**[12:38] Miracle**
Right? You're super strong!
**[12:40] Chris**
I've made it this far by myself many times.
**[12:44] Chris**
But I could never beat the enemy up ahead.
**[12:47] marumaru**
So it's that strong.
**[12:49] marumaru**
Which means...
**[12:51] Chris**
It's the last boss that
protects the treasure!
**[12:56] Miracle**
The treasure's inside there?
**[12:58] Chris**
Yes.
**[12:59] marumaru**
Which means this is...
**[13:01] Chris**
Where the last boss spawns.
**[13:08] marumaru**
What's this sound?
**[13:09] Miracle**
Could it be a huge Vanity?
**[13:16] Chris**
That's the last boss of this stage.
**[13:19] Chris**
The Dragon Vanity.
**[13:20] Miracle**
The Dragon Vanity?
**[13:21] Miracle**
Is it a dragon? Or a bunny?
**[13:30] Chris**
This time... I won't lose!
**[13:34] Miracle**
What is that?
**[13:39] marumaru/Miracle**
She got it!
**[13:46] Miracle**
Chris!
**[13:54] Miracle**
Get away from Chris!
**[14:00] marumaru**
Miracle, you meanie!
**[14:06] Miracle**
Oops!
**[14:09] Miracle**
Wh-Wh-What do I do?!
**[14:11] Chris**
Miracle...
**[14:12] Miracle**
Chris!
**[14:13] Chris**
Run away...
**[14:21] Miracle**
Take this!
**[14:27] Chris**
Wh-What's that?
**[14:29] Miracle**
Fortune takoyaki!
**[14:30] Miracle**
Now come on, Chris!
**[14:31] Chris**
Miracle...
**[14:37] Miracle**
Th-That was close...
**[14:40] Miracle**
How can we beat that thing?
**[14:43] Miracle**
I-It's fine, Chris!
**[14:45] Miracle**
Even if you can't win alone,
we can win together!
**[14:49] Miracle**
I think...
**[14:49] Chris**
Miracle, do you remember what I said before?
**[14:53] Miracle**
What was it?
**[14:55] (Flashback) Chris**
No, I'm interested in you, Miracle.
**[15:00] Chris**
So I wondered why I was
so interested in you.
**[15:04] Miracle**
Oh, you said there wasn't a
specific reason last time, right?
**[15:08] Chris**
I thought about myself a whole lot,
**[15:10] Chris**
and each time I did, you were
what came into my mind.
**[15:15] Chris**
What do you mean to me?
**[15:19] Chris**
Why am I drawn to you?
**[15:22] Miracle**
Chris?
**[15:24] Chris**
I think I found that reason
here, in this world.
**[15:28] Chris**
Miracle, with you...
**[15:34] Miracle**
Watch out!
**[15:36] Chris**
This way!
**[15:48] Chris**
Miracle...
**[15:50] Miracle**
It's not over yet, okay?
**[15:52] Miracle**
Take this!
**[16:00] Miracle**
I got it!
**[16:05] Miracle**
Chris!
**[16:09] Chris**
You beat it, huh?
**[16:10] Miracle**
Why would you do something so crazy?
**[16:13] Chris**
Just like I thought... the reason
I was so interested in you...
**[16:19] Chris**
Is because you looked
like you were shining...
**[16:22] Chris**
And it felt like with you, I could shine.
**[16:27] Chris**
I want to shine with you, Miracle...
**[16:30] Miracle**
Chris...
**[16:31] Chris**
Even if I can't overcome something
on my own, with you, Miracle...
**[16:38] Miracle**
Then don't die on me!
**[16:40] Miracle**
You still haven't found who you really are!
**[16:43] Chris**
Miracle...
**[16:46] Chris**
Thank you.
**[16:49] Miracle**
Chris!
**[16:53] Chris**
What?
**[16:54] Miracle**
Oh, right.
**[16:56] Miracle**
It was a game.
**[16:57] Noelle**
What are you crying about?
**[17:03] Miracle**
What's wrong, marumaru?
**[17:04] marumaru**
I can't believe you threw me at the enemy...
**[17:06] Miracle**
Sorry, it wasn't deliberate.
**[17:10] Noelle**
So? What about the treasure?
**[17:11] Miracle**
Huh?
**[17:12] Miracle**
That's right. How'd we end up here
after beating the last boss?
**[17:15] marumaru**
Looks like you hit the time limit.
**[17:19] Miracle**
After all that work?
**[17:21] Chris**
I found a wonderful treasure.
**[17:28] [SONG] Song**
Searchlight, the brightest shining star
**[17:32] [SONG] Song**
that lights up the reason I was born
**[17:45] [SONG] Song**
A world that spins at
the same speed as always
**[17:51] [SONG] Song**
Not even knowing what my favorite color is
**[17:59] [SONG] Song**
I answer yes/no
**[18:02] [SONG] Song**
A song that's just what
everyone else wants to hear
**[18:05] [SONG] Song**
is going around in circles in my head
**[18:11] [SONG] Song**
I found you singing in a monochrome world
**[18:18] [SONG] Song**
I want to jump into the other world
**[18:27] [SONG] Song**
Searchlight, the pulsing rhythm
**[18:31] [SONG] Song**
that lights up the reason I was born
**[18:34] [SONG] Song**
Shooting star
**[18:35] [SONG] Song**
What is this feeling? I can
hear a sound in my heart
**[18:41] [SONG] Song**
Searchlight, the single ray of light
**[18:45] [SONG] Song**
that leads to the reason I was born
**[18:48] [SONG] Song**
My heartbeat's started and it won't stop
**[18:52] [SONG] Song**
cause you're out there, and I can find you
**[18:58] Miracle**
Wow, Chris!
**[18:59] Miracle**
When did you come up with
those wonderful lyrics?
**[19:02] Chris**
Since I came back from *Grid Treasure Hunt*.
**[19:05] Miracle**
So you made them in just three days?
**[19:08] Miracle**
Wow!
**[19:09] Noelle**
Those lyrics are filled with
the emotions inside you now...
**[19:11] Noelle**
I could feel the originality in them.
**[19:14] Chris**
Those lyrics are the treasure you gave me.
**[19:19] Chris**
I couldn't find out who
I was on this journey.
**[19:23] Chris**
But I was able to create those
lyrics because I was with you.
**[19:28] Chris**
I feel like with you,
I can find... the real me.
**[19:34] Chris**
Who I really am.
**[19:36] Miracle**
Chris...
**[19:38] Chris**
So thanks for being my friend, Miracle.
**[19:42] Miracle**
Me, too! I want us to be even better friends!
**[19:45] Miracle**
Thanks for being my friend, too!
**[19:47] Noelle**
Hey, aren't you forgetting about me?
**[19:51] Miracle**
You too, Noelle.
**[19:52] Noelle**
Of course!
**[19:54] Noelle**
Okay, let's keep it up so we can
all be in the Virtual Grid Awards!
**[19:59] Noelle/Chris**
Okay!
**[20:01] Noelle**
But you're the one with the
lowest ranking of any of us.
**[20:05] Noelle**
And you said you're making original lyrics,
but you haven't finished them yet!
**[20:10] Miracle**
Wh-What do I do?
**[20:12] Chris**
I know you can do it, Miracle!
**[20:14] Chris**
I think...
**[20:14] Miracle**
I'm the one who has to try the hardest!
**[20:20] Auris**
Are preparations going well?
**[20:22] Vanity**
Yes. Everything is proceeding as planned.
**[20:25] Auris**
Excellent.
**[20:27] Vanity**
Goodbye.
**[20:29] Auris**
I can't wait to see what gets made.
**[20:49] [SONG] Song**
I became aware of my love
**[21:00] [SONG] Song**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[21:05] [SONG] Song**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[21:10] [SONG] Song**
The neon of the electronic world where
we intersect is burned into my brain
**[21:15] [SONG] Song**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[21:21] [SONG] Song**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[21:26] [SONG] Song**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[21:31] [SONG] Song**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[21:36] [SONG] Song**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying
**[21:39] [SONG] Song**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[21:44] [SONG] Song**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[21:50] [SONG] Song**
Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[21:54] [SONG] Song**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other
**[22:00] [SONG] Song**
I am waiting for... forever

* a journey to find myself.*
**[00:08] Chris**
* Miracle discovered who she really was.*
* I thought that maybe I could, too.*
**[00:15] Chris**
*So I dove into a video game world.*

**[00:22] Chris**
* The feeling that when I am with Miracle,*
* I can overcome anything.*
**[00:30] Chris**
* Miracle's so mysterious... What is it*

**[00:34] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[00:45] [SONG] Song**
The ground I stood on only looked distorted
**[00:50] [SONG] Song**
Because I saw it through tears of frustration
**[00:55] [SONG] Song**
But standing still isn’t like me!
**[01:00] [SONG] Song**
So I ran like crazy until I was out of breath
**[01:06] [SONG] Song**
No matter how many times I
get discouraged, I still love it
**[01:10] [SONG] Song**
I believe in my friends, and in
the me that’s chasing my dream
**[01:19] [SONG] Song**
Let our sparkling minds spout up
**[01:21] [SONG] Song**
Ride on this future wave!
We’ll go beyond this unstoppable thrill
**[01:26] [SONG] Song**
Race through with all our might
to find the sky we want to see
**[01:31] [SONG] Song**
Each time a dream comes true, the new “now”
is my new starting line, over and over without end
**[01:37] [SONG] Song**
Ride toward the future! The next step we take
**[01:42] [SONG] Song**
Will give rise to opportunity, as
much as all the courage we have
**[01:46] [SONG] Song**
Our shared wish binds us together
as we ride this tailwind

How far can we go? With

I keep writing stuff, but nothing feels right.
I'm not getting anywhere.
**[02:20] Vanity-sensei**
I see.
**[02:22] Vanity-sensei**
Perhaps you're in that phase, then.
**[02:26] Vanity-sensei**
The time in which you must

**[04:18] Miracle**
She's up to #73!
**[04:21] Miracle**
They're both amazing!
**[04:22] marumaru**
Yeah.
**[04:31] Miracle**
It kind of freaks me out how far
ahead of me they're getting.
**[04:36] marumaru**
But going from #540 to #168
is a big jump, right?
**[04:43] Miracle**
It's thanks to everybody else.
**[04:45] marumaru**
So... I think it's okay for
you to go at your own pace.
**[04:51] marumaru**
What?
**[04:53] Miracle**
You don't seem bothered by anything.
**[04:55] Miracle**
I'm jealous of you, marumaru.
**[04:57] Miracle**
Nothing gets to you.
**[05:00] Miracle**
I can't think of anything except the
Virtual Grid Awards these days.
**[05:04] marumaru**
I mean, I'm not entering.
**[05:06] Miracle**
You're not?
**[05:07] marumaru**
Yeah.
**[05:09] Miracle**
You're not entering the Virtual Grid Awards?
**[05:11] marumaru**
Yeah.
**[05:18] Noelle**
marumaru's not entering
the Virtual Grid Awards?
**[05:21] Miracle**
That's right.
**[05:22] Miracle**
I thought we were all entering together.
**[05:26] Noelle**
But you've got something else you should
be focusing on right now, right?
**[05:33] Noelle**
They just explained it to us yesterday.
**[05:36] Chris**
Ultimate.
**[05:38] Miracle**
Oh, right!
**[05:40] Miracle**
That event where you can participate in a
game that the kids in the other curriculum made.
**[05:44] Chris**
The XR Technology Class.
**[05:47] Noelle**
From the sound of it, you haven't
heard about the special prize, then?
**[05:51] Miracle**
What?
**[05:53] Noelle**
If you get first place, you can
perform on a special stage!
**[05:58] Miracle**
So if I get first place, I can have
everyone watch my performance?
**[06:02] Noelle**
Every student at ADEN will be watching.
**[06:06] Miracle**
Then I want to get first place!
**[06:08] Miracle**
And I will!
**[06:12] Miracle**
So you race on these fogelboards?
**[06:15] Miracle**
I'd prefer a design that
didn't look so bland.
**[06:18] Chris**
They all work the same.
**[06:20] Chris**
It doesn't matter how they look.
**[06:22] Miracle**
True, but...
**[06:24] Miracle**
I want to race at top speed on
my awesome-looking fogelboard!
**[06:27] Miracle**
It'd make things more exciting.
**[06:29] Chris**
I see.
**[06:31] Noelle**
Go for it.
**[06:32] Noelle**
They didn't say you couldn't
customize the things.
**[06:36] Miracle**
Right?
**[06:37] Miracle**
I wonder what should I do with it!
**[06:41] Miracle**
But how do you actually design something?
**[06:46] Miracle**
Is there anybody I could ask?
**[07:03] Miracle**
Hey, there.
**[07:09] Miracle**
Homework?
**[07:11] Q**
Yeah.
**[07:12] Q**
For ADII.
**[07:15] Miracle**
ADII?
**[07:17] Miracle**
The class for second-year digital artists?
**[07:22] Miracle**
Are you my senpai, then?
**[07:29] Miracle**
You're studying to be a designer, then?
**[07:34] Miracle**
I know!
**[07:36] Q**
What is it?
**[07:37] Miracle**
Well... I'm in the virtual artist class,
and I'm entering a racing event.
**[07:43] Q**
Oh, the one the XR Technologies
class is making.
**[07:47] Miracle**
Yes.
**[07:48] Miracle**
And I'd like to design my own
original fogelboard for it.
**[07:54] Q**
I see.
**[07:55] Miracle**
And I just found out right now that
you're studying to be a designer!
**[08:00] Miracle**
Senpai, could you help me with the design?
**[08:06] Q**
You're asking me?
**[08:08] Miracle**
I know it's a tough ask!
**[08:11] Miracle**
But I've never designed anything before...
**[08:14] Miracle**
Could you help?
**[08:19] Miracle**
Um...
**[08:22] Q**
Okay.
**[08:23] Miracle**
Really? Really?
**[08:25] Miracle**
You'd go along with my crazy request?
**[08:28] Q**
Yes.
**[08:28] Miracle**
Thank you!
**[08:30] Q**
By the way, is there something
you want to draw?
**[08:36] Miracle**
Something exciting!
**[08:40] Miracle**
It's bad if it's that vague, right?
**[08:43] Q**
It's fine. What's important
is having that first idea.
**[08:46] Miracle**
Hooray!
**[08:48] Q**
Start by drawing a single line, any line.
**[08:51] Miracle**
Okay!
**[08:53] Q**
As you draw more and more, the idea
in your head will become clearer.
**[08:57] Q**
You'll start to understand
what you want to draw.
**[09:02] Miracle**
*I can't think of anything!*
**[09:12] Q**
Why not take a break?
**[09:13] Miracle**
Thank you! I'll have some!
**[09:18] Miracle**
Yum! They smell like tea!
**[09:21] Q**
I put some tea leaf pieces in the batter.
**[09:23] Miracle**
You made these yourself? Wow!
**[09:26] Q**
Yes.
**[09:26] Q**
If you like them, you can have mine.
**[09:28] Miracle**
Okay, I'll take you up on that!
**[09:41] Q**
Huh? I just...
**[09:43] Miracle**
Your homework? Go ahead and do it.
**[09:47] Q**
No, more importantly...
**[09:50] Miracle**
Yes?
**[09:52] Q**
Why did you decide to do your own design?
**[09:56] Q**
You can enter Ultimate without one.
**[10:03] Miracle**
My ranking's hasn't been going up at all lately.
**[10:07] Miracle**
But my friends' rankings are way up.
**[10:10] Miracle**
It feels like they're leaving me behind...
**[10:15] Miracle**
But if I can get first place in this race,
**[10:18] Miracle**
I get to perform on a special stage.
**[10:21] Miracle**
And I bet if I did that,
my ranking would go way up!
**[10:24] Q**
What's that got to do with
designing your own board?
**[10:28] Miracle**
If I'm going to be using something,
**[10:31] Miracle**
I want to use something that
will make me feel excited.
**[10:34] Miracle**
Something that feels like
it really belongs to me!
**[10:38] Miracle**
That's how it is for me, anyway.
**[10:41] Q**
Are looks that important?
**[10:46] Q**
Um... once I got stuck on a design,
and started thinking about stuff...
**[10:53] Miracle**
Yeah?
**[10:54] Q**
At first, you can copy somebody else,
**[10:57] Q**
but if you want to go beyond that...
**[11:00] Q**
Maybe you need to face yourself and
figure out what you really want to create.
**[11:08] Miracle**
That's kind of deep!
**[11:13] Miracle**
Look at the time!
**[11:14] Miracle**
I'm so sorry for keeping you here this late!
**[11:16] Miracle**
I can't thank you enough.
**[11:18] Q**
Don't worry about it.
**[11:20] Miracle**
Thank you for the advice!
**[11:24] Miracle**
Oh...
**[11:26] Miracle**
The tea was delicious!
**[11:35] marumaru**
Just now, I wanted to write something...
**[11:39] marumaru**
Why?
**[11:42] marumaru**
Because I taught something to
someone else? Did that inspire me?
**[11:46] marumaru**
No. I thought I'd stopped
getting involved with anyone.
**[11:53] (Flashback) Art Teacher**
We've decided to choose your
work for this year, Quan.
**[11:59] (Flashback) Art Teacher 2**
Are you done?
**[12:01] (Flashback) Q**
I want to fix some things up.
**[12:03] (Flashback) Art Teacher 2**
Oh, it's fine as is.
**[12:06] (Flashback) Art Teacher 2**
I'm taking it.
**[12:11] (Flashback) Art Teacher**
We can't thank Quan enough.
**[12:14] (Flashback) Art Teacher**
We've been flooded with messages ever
since we put that photo up on our page.
**[12:18] (Flashback) Art Teacher 2**
They do look pretty...
**[12:19] (Flashback) Art Teacher 2**
Prettier than the pictures from before.
**[12:24] marumaru**
*It's always been that way.*
**[12:26] marumaru**
*Nobody looks at the real me...*
**[12:31] marumaru**
I'm okay on my own.
**[12:33] marumaru**
Alone, with nobody bothering me.
**[12:36] marumaru**
At least, I thought I was...
**[12:41] Miracle**
marumaru!
**[12:45] Miracle**
You're always so round, marumaru!
**[12:50] marumaru**
Is that the first thing
you have to say to me?
**[12:52] marumaru**
* When did Miracle and her friends coming*
* here become part of my daily routine?*
**[12:58] marumaru**
* At first, I thought they*
* were annoying, but...*
**[13:01] Miracle**
Hey, can I ask a question?
**[13:03] marumaru**
You're going to ask even if I say no, right?
**[13:06] Miracle**
You said you're not entering the
Virtual Grid Awards, right?
**[13:10] marumaru**
Yeah.
**[13:12] Miracle**
Why is that?
**[13:14] marumaru**
I was originally in the design class,
**[13:16] marumaru**
but started going to the artist
class halfway through the year.
**[13:19] Miracle**
You go to both?
**[13:21] marumaru**
Everybody around me insisted
to me that I should.
**[13:26] Miracle**
I see...
**[13:28] marumaru**
I didn't feel like I could
tell them all no...
**[13:31] marumaru**
And when I tried it, it was really hard...
**[13:35] marumaru**
It's hard to go out in
front of people, isn't it?
**[13:40] marumaru**
I've never really liked being looked at.
**[13:43] Miracle**
And that's why you didn't enter
the Virtual Grid Awards?
**[13:46] marumaru**
Yup.
**[13:48] Miracle**
I see.
**[13:50] marumaru**
It's not good, is it?
**[13:52] marumaru**
I know I always lecture you...
**[13:55] marumaru**
But I'm actually really lame.
**[13:59] Miracle**
That's *not* true!
**[14:01] Miracle**
You're always complaining to me,
but you let me be here!
**[14:06] Miracle**
And you give me really good advice, too!
**[14:08] Miracle**
You're the total opposite of
boring! You're un-boring!
**[14:12] marumaru**
Un-boring? Is that a compliment?
**[14:15] Miracle**
It is! And I'm grateful to you!
**[14:18] Miracle**
Because you've helped me out with so much!
**[14:21] marumaru**
I have not.
**[14:23] Miracle**
You're so stubborn!
**[14:25] marumaru**
Oww! Oww!
**[14:27] Miracle**
Do you admit that you're un-boring?
**[14:32] marumaru**
*For Miracle...*
**[14:34] marumaru**
* For Miracle, who accepts me*
* even when I look like this...*
**[14:35] Miracle**
Oh, your roundness! That's one of the
things that makes you un-boring!
**[14:38] marumaru**
*I want to... do everything I can.*
**[14:40] Miracle**
Are you listening, marumaru?
**[14:43] marumaru**
Hey, that thing you've been drawing...
**[14:48] Miracle**
Oh, this? It's the design for the
fogelboard I'm using at Ultimate.
**[14:54] marumaru**
Looks like you're not making
much progress, though.
**[14:57] Miracle**
That's right!
**[14:59] Miracle**
Someone I know taught me the basics
of design, but it's hard...
**[15:04] marumaru**
You won't have it done in
time for Ultimate like this.
**[15:08] Miracle**
You think so?
**[15:10] marumaru**
I don't want you running
around screaming about
**[15:12] marumaru**
how you're running out of
time, so I'll help you.
**[15:16] marumaru**
Well, unless you don't want me to.
**[15:17] Miracle**
No! You just surprised me!
**[15:20] Miracle**
Lend me your design power!
**[15:23] marumaru**
You'll be the one to do the thinking.
**[15:26] marumaru**
I'll just take those ideas and
put them into a design.
**[15:28] marumaru**
Got it?
**[15:29] Miracle**
Got it!
**[15:43] Miracle**
It's done!
**[15:45] Miracle**
Now it's all up to you, marumaru.
**[15:48] Miracle**
Bye!
**[15:52] marumaru**
Now, time to get to work...
**[16:06] Miracle**
It's done already?
**[16:08] marumaru**
Yup.
**[16:10] Miracle**
You didn't just do the design, you even
printed it out on the fogelboard?
**[16:15] marumaru**
I thought it would be easier
for you to see the end product.
**[16:17] Miracle**
A fogelboard we designed together!
**[16:23] Miracle**
It's so wonderful!
**[16:26] Miracle**
Thank you, marumaru!
**[16:28] marumaru**
You're the one who designed it.
**[16:33] Miracle**
I can't believe my terrible drawings
turned out so wonderfully...
**[16:38] Miracle**
This coloring is so cute!
**[16:40] marumaru**
I took inspiration from you.
**[16:42] Miracle**
Oh!
**[16:44] Miracle**
It's got so many wonderful colors!
**[16:47] marumaru**
You always say that Chris and
Noelle help you out, right?
**[16:52] Miracle**
Yup!
**[16:52] marumaru**
So I gave it a design that would make
you feel like everyone was with you.
**[16:57] Miracle**
marumaru! Thank you so, so much!
**[17:01] marumaru**
I'm the one who should be thanking you.
**[17:05] Miracle**
Nothing.
**[17:06] Miracle**
This is all I can do. The rest is up to you.
**[17:10] Miracle**
Yup!
**[17:10] Miracle**
With your feelings next to me,
I'll get 1st place...
**[17:16] Miracle**
Help me, marumaru!
**[17:18] Miracle**
How do I control this!
**[17:20] marumaru**
*It feels like Miracle sees the real me.*
**[17:26] marumaru**
*I'm glad I could help her.*
**[17:31] marumaru**
*Maybe I've found what I want to do...*
**[17:50] Riz**
Okay, that'll do for now.
**[17:53] Riz**
Ultimate, was it?
**[17:55] Riz**
Well, I'll just count myself lucky
if I can get any new good data.
**[18:13] [SONG] Song**
I became aware of my love
**[18:24] [SONG] Song**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[18:29] [SONG] Song**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[18:34] [SONG] Song**
The neon of the electronic world where

**[18:39] [SONG] Song**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[18:45] [SONG] Song**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[18:50] [SONG] Song**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[18:55] [SONG] Song**

**[19:00] [SONG] Song**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying

**[19:08] [SONG] Song**

Well, it would mean that when you're in your

Why?
**[22:09] Miracle**
It's a design class. You need to draw
something, or we can't get anywhere.
**[22:12] Noelle**
Miracle, do you know what

**[22:17] Miracle**
Design means... design!
***SIGN*** The Definition of Design

The first is how to plan something.

For instance, you say you're going to
make plans for a new building, right?
**[22:37] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[22:38] Noelle**

**[22:44] Miracle**
That's what marumaru made for my fogelboard!
**[22:48] Noelle**
Yup.
**[22:49] Miracle**
And the third?
**[22:51] Noelle**
The last one is product design.
**[22:54] Noelle**
This is most often used when you're
designing something for consumers.
**[22:57] Noelle**
Like something you're selling.
**[22:58] Miracle**
And?
**[23:00] Noelle**
Take that fogelboard for something.
**[23:02] Noelle**
If it's just the drawings,
it's the second meaning.
**[23:08] Noelle**
It's the third if it's
something you're selling.

And I heard that if you get first place,
you can do a special performance!
**[00:43] Miracle**
A lot of people will be watching,
**[00:46] Miracle**
so this is my chance to raise my
ranking a whole bunch, right?
**[00:49] Miracle**
That's why I'm going to get first place and
do a performance where I give it my all.
**[00:54] Miracle**
Cheer me on, everybody.
**[00:57] Miracle**
Okay...
**[01:01] Miracle**
Off I go!
***SIGN*** Fight!
***SIGN*** See ya!
***SIGN*** You can do it!!
***SIGN*** Good luck

Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[01:15] [SONG] Song**
The ground I stood on only looked distorted
**[01:21] [SONG] Song**
Because I saw it through tears of frustration
**[01:25] [SONG] Song**
But standing still isn’t like me!
**[01:30] [SONG] Song**
So I ran like crazy until I was out of breath
**[01:36] [SONG] Song**
No matter how many times I
get discouraged, I still love it
**[01:40] [SONG] Song**
I believe in my friends, and in
the me that’s chasing my dream
**[01:49] [SONG] Song**
Let our sparkling minds spout up
**[01:51] [SONG] Song**
Ride on this future wave!
We’ll go beyond this unstoppable thrill
**[01:56] [SONG] Song**
Race through with all our might
to find the sky we want to see
**[02:01] [SONG] Song**
Each time a dream comes true, the new “now”
is my new starting line, over and over without end
**[02:07] [SONG] Song**
Ride toward the future! The next step we take
**[02:12] [SONG] Song**
Will give rise to opportunity, as
much as all the courage we have
**[02:16] [SONG] Song**
Our shared wish binds us together
as we ride this tailwind
**[02:22] [SONG] Song**
How far can we go? With
our hands linked tightly
**[02:27] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage

**[02:41] Chris**
Beautiful.
**[02:42] Miracle**
Right?
**[02:44] Miracle**
marumaru and I designed it.
**[02:46] Miracle**
I feel like it gives me
extra power when I ride it!
**[02:49] marumaru**
I'm glad you're excited for this,
but did you learn to ride a fogelboard?
**[02:54] Chris**
I've got the accelerator, turbo, special turbo,
and hyper jet turbo all down pat!
**[02:59] Noelle**
Do you know... where the brakes are?
**[03:02] Miracle**
I have to get to the goal quickly.
I don't have time for brakes...
**[03:05] Noelle**
You'd better!
**[03:08] marumaru**
Look, tap this button with your
foot and it'll flip the brake.
**[03:12] Miracle**
Tap it with my foot?
**[03:14] Miracle**
Got it.
**[03:15] Miracle**
If I end up needing it...
**[03:17] marumaru**
Please *use* it!
**[03:19] Miracle**
Brakes slow you down, right?
Isn't it better not to use them?
**[03:19] Game Narrator**
Welcome to Ultimate! Everybody, have fun!
**[03:24] marumaru**
No, if you hit a curve at full throttle,
you might fall off the course.
**[03:25] Game Narrator**
Get ready!
**[03:28] Game Narrator**
Three, two, one!
**[03:29] marumaru**
You need to control your
speed and use the brakes...
**[03:31] Game Narrator**
Go for it!
**[03:41] Noelle**
It's started!
**[03:42] Chris**
The race's begun!
**[03:43] marumaru**
Oh, no!
**[03:45] marumaru**
Hit the accelerator!
**[03:46] Miracle**
I am! But...
**[03:48] Miracle**
It's not moving!
**[03:49] marumaru**
Your right foot! It's still on the brake!
**[03:52] Miracle**
Oh, right!
**[04:09] Chris**
We got knocked off the
course at the obstacle.
**[04:12] Chris**
This is game over.
**[04:13] Noelle**
Just like that? No way!
**[04:18] marumaru**
I see.
**[04:19] marumaru**
That's the real course...
**[04:21] marumaru**
The arrow was telling you to go up!
**[04:25] Miracle**
E-Everyone...
**[04:29] Riz**
Don't worry.
**[04:32] Riz**
They're all at the portal area.
**[04:38] XRT Student 1**
Too bad for you!
**[04:41] XRT Student 1**
Now that it's game over for you,
**[04:44] XRT Student 1**
you'll have to cheer on the
other racers from this room.
**[04:47] XRT Student 2**
Of course, you'll have to
play a punishment game, too.
**[04:51] Noelle**
A punishment game?
**[04:59] Noelle**
What is this?!
**[05:02] Miracle**
I see.
**[05:04] Riz**
So, see you later.
**[05:07] Riz**
Shouldn't you be going faster?
**[05:08] Riz**
You're in last place.
**[05:15] Riz**
Not that it's my problem, I guess.
**[05:22] Miracle**
marumaru, Noelle, Chris...
**[05:27] Miracle**
I won't let your deaths be in vain!
**[05:29] Noelle**
We're not dead.
**[05:31] Chris**
Go! Go!
**[05:42] Miracle**
What's this?
**[05:59] Miracle**
Wait!
**[06:05] Miracle**
*Maybe...*
**[06:11] Miracle**
That's it!
**[06:12] Miracle**
I need to pass over the
shining spots on the floor!
**[06:18] Chris**
A score?
**[06:19] XRT Student 2**
You noticed?
**[06:20] XRT Student 1**
Yes, this is a rhythm game course.
**[06:23] XRT Student 1**
Ride on top of all the right notes
and get a high score, and...
**[06:32] XRT Student 1**
a speed boost!
**[06:35] XRT Student 1**
Well? Pretty exciting, right?
**[06:45] Miracle**
What is this? I'm going so slow!
**[06:47] XRT Student 1**
Make a mistake and your speed goes down.
Too many and it's game over!
**[06:52] marumaru**
This might be tough for her.
**[06:54] Chris**
Yeah.
**[06:56] Noelle**
But Miracle knows the importance
of connecting to the music.
**[07:01] Noelle**
So I'm sure...
**[07:04] Miracle**
I need to get into a rhythm and
not make any more mistakes!
**[07:10] Miracle**
Oh, no! I'm ahead of the beat!
**[07:18] Miracle**
*Maybe...*
**[07:19] Miracle**
*Next!*
**[07:20] Miracle**
*And the one after that!*
**[07:23] Miracle**
* If you go slightly ahead or behind*
* the beat depending on the melody,*
**[07:26] Miracle**
* instead of trying to do it all at*
* the same speed, it feels great!*
**[07:36] Miracle**
Okay!
**[07:37] Miracle**
Time to connect more with
the song, the music...
**[07:39] Miracle**
...and the rhythm!
**[07:50] XRT Student 1**
She made the secret notes appear.
**[07:53] marumaru/Noelle**
Yes!
**[07:54] Miracle**
Go!
**[07:57] Miracle**
Turbo!
**[08:02] Girls**
No way!
**[08:03] Girls**
How'd she get a score that high?
**[08:14] Riz**
Vanity, display her channel.
**[08:17] Vanity**
*Understood.*
**[08:24] Vanity**

Someone I know in the XR

somewhere in Ultimate. If you
defeat it, you'll get a high score
and a big speed boost.
The one who defeats the lucky
avatar will win the race!
Tell this to everyone.
**[08:34] Miracle**
Someone I know in the XR Technology
course just told me this.
**[08:40] Miracle**
Huh?! This is amazing!
**[08:44] Miracle**
I need to tell everybody!
**[08:47] Riz**
Message
**[08:48] Riz**
It's from Miracle!
**[08:50] Riz**
"Plz Spread"?
**[08:52] Riz**
A lucky avatar is hidden
somewhere in Ultimate?
**[08:57] marumaru**
If you defeat it, you'll get a high
score and a big speed boost!
**[09:00] marumaru**
The one who defeats the lucky
avatar will win the race!
**[09:04] marumaru**
Tell this to everyone...?
**[09:08] Girls**
That's awesome.
**[09:09] Girls**
Hey, don't you think it's her?
**[09:15] Girls**
It *has* to be her.
**[09:17] Girls**
She went straight for the main course
like she knew about that first obstacle.
**[09:21] Girls**
And even though she was in last place,
**[09:23] Girls**
she somehow got a high score that
boosted her place by a lot.
**[09:26] Miracle**
Now everybody knows about the lucky avatar!
**[09:29] Miracle**
The race is sure to be more fun.
**[09:34] Miracle**
Wh-Wh-What?
**[09:36] Girls**
You're the lucky avatar, right?
**[09:39] Miracle**
N-No.
**[09:40] Girls**
You can't fool us.
**[09:45] Chris**
They all think Miracle is the lucky avatar.
**[09:49] XRT Student 1**
We didn't put anything
like that in the program!
**[09:53] XRT Student 2**
It's no good! I can't fix it because they
keep changing the passcodes to lock me out!
**[10:00] XRT Student 2**
Somebody probably spread
the rumor deliberately.
**[10:04] Riz**
It's fake news, huh?
**[10:17] Miracle**
What do I do? What do I do?
**[10:23] Riz**
This way.
**[10:24] Miracle**
U-Um...
**[10:26] Miracle**
Breaking News
**[10:27] marumaru**
There's a message!
**[10:29] Noelle**
More fake news?
**[10:31] Chris**
No, this is...
**[10:33] Chris**
A message saying that the account
that spread the information
**[10:36] Chris**
about the lucky avatar has
already been abandoned.
**[10:41] XRT Student 2**
I've got access to Ultimate again!
**[10:44] XRT Student 1**
Tell the contestants!
**[10:47] Girls**
That's strange...
**[10:49] Girls**
Where did she go?
**[10:51] Girls**
She should be around here...
**[10:52] Girls**
Let's go a little further.
**[10:54] Girls**
Yeah.
**[10:54] Girls**
I wish she wouldn't make this hard.
**[10:56] Girls**
I'll find her.
**[10:57] Riz**
I'm Riz.
**[10:59] Riz**
You're Miracle, right?
**[11:00] Miracle**
Y-Yeah.
**[11:01] Riz**
That information about the lucky avatar
made a mess of everything, huh?
**[11:05] Riz**
But it's okay now.
**[11:08] XRT Student 1**
*Everyone!*
**[11:10] XRT Student 1**
* That information about the*
* lucky avatar was fake news!*
**[11:14] XRT Student 1**
*Don't be deceived! Focus on the race!*
**[11:18] Miracle**
Fake news?
**[11:19] Riz**
Yup.
**[11:21] Miracle**
Are you the one who told everyone?
**[11:24] Riz**
I think everyone watching from the
portal area figured out it was fake news, too.
**[11:30] Miracle**
Then...
**[11:31] Miracle**
I'm the only one who believed it?
**[11:33] Riz**
You and those girls.
**[11:38] Miracle**
S-Sorry... for spreading fake news.
**[11:42] Riz**
It's the fault of whoever made it up.
**[11:46] Riz**
And... your desire to do something
for everyone is good.
**[11:50] Riz**
But I think you should've checked
before you spread it to everyone.
**[11:57] Miracle**
You're right.
**[11:59] Riz**
When you get a new piece of news,
the first thing you need to do is fact check it.
**[12:03] Miracle**
Fact check?
**[12:07] Riz**
Get information from a variety of angles
to find the source of the news.
**[12:13] Riz**
A source you can trust, that is.
**[12:15] Riz**
But fact checking is hard and it's not a
100% surefire way to fight against fake news.
**[12:21] Riz**
So if you're suspicious or don't think
you can trust the news you hear...
**[12:27] Riz**
Don't spread it.
**[12:29] Miracle**
Yes, ma'am!
**[12:31] Riz**
Once something's out on the internet,
you can never get rid of it.
**[12:35] Riz**
You know that, right!
**[12:38] Miracle**
I do...
**[12:41] Riz**
Well, this particular bit of fake news was a
nasty one that took advantage of your kindness.
**[12:47] Riz**
Like they were trying something out...
**[12:50] Riz**
Okay, that's enough talking and
reflecting on what you did wrong.
**[12:54] Riz**
Let's get back to racing.
**[12:56] Miracle**
Okay!
**[13:02] Miracle**
Riz, it says it's the final course!
**[13:07] Riz**
Yeah.
**[13:08] Miracle**
Two courses? Which is the right one?
**[13:13] Girls**
You can't win by just standing there!
**[13:25] Girls**
The left side's the right way.
**[13:27] Girls**
I'll be the one to get first place!
**[13:36] Miracle**
We can't take the left
path or the right one?
**[13:40] Miracle**
What's going on?
**[13:42] Riz**
ATST...?
**[13:43] Miracle**
ATST? What's that?
**[13:46] Riz**
It was on that sign we passed.
**[13:49] Riz**
It's short for "At the Same Time."
**[13:53] Riz**
Does that mean that as you're racing,
**[13:55] Riz**
you need to be doing something
else at the same time?
**[13:58] Riz**
Like maybe hit the brake and accelerator at
the same time, like you did at the start?
**[14:03] Riz**
Or...
**[14:04] Miracle**
I've got it!
**[14:06] Miracle**
It means you and I have to do
the course at the same time!
**[14:11] Riz**
I see!
**[14:13] Miracle**
You take the right course.
**[14:15] Miracle**
I'll take the left one.
**[14:17] Riz**
If you want to go forward,
you don't do it alone...
**[14:21] Riz**
You do it at the same time...
**[14:22] Miracle**
as somebody else...
**[14:23] Miracle/Riz**
And run both courses together!
**[14:33] Noelle**
They'll be knocked out!
**[14:51] Miracle**
It's beautiful!
**[14:53] Riz**
Miracle, in front of you!
**[14:58] Miracle**
Where's the goal?
**[15:01] Riz**
The future is always hidden
in the darkness...
**[15:05] Riz**
You don't know what will happen...
**[15:07] Riz**
but if you jump in without being afraid...
**[15:10] Riz**
perhaps your fear will turn into joy!
**[15:17] Miracle**
*I-I'm scared! But...*
**[15:20] Miracle**
* marumaru's here. Noelle and*
* Chris are watching, too...*
**[15:25] Miracle**
* I'm going to get first place and have*
* everyone watch my performance...*
**[15:30] Miracle**
*raise my ranking...*
**[15:31] Miracle**
*get to the Virtual Grid Awards...*
**[15:34] Miracle**
*and win the Lapin d'Or!*
**[15:58] Riz**
Miracle!
**[16:00] Miracle**
Th-That was so scary!
**[16:07] Riz**
If you were scared, why did you follow me?
**[16:09] Miracle**
Because...
**[16:11] Miracle**
You were my source, Riz!
**[16:13] Miracle**
You're the one who told me to find
a source I could trust, right?
**[16:18] Miracle**
That's why.
**[16:20] Riz**
You trusted me and jumped in?
**[16:23] Miracle**
Yup!
**[16:28] Miracle**
Your source was me! Me?
**[16:36] Miracle**
Is that strange?
**[16:38] Riz**
It's strange.
**[16:39] Riz**
You're a strange girl, Miracle.
**[16:43] Miracle**
Does that mean...
**[16:45] Riz**
There's the goal button.
**[16:46] Riz**
So first place is mine, okay?
**[16:56] Miracle**
No fair!
**[16:59] Riz**
You should've stayed sharp until the end!

Your ranking went way up!
**[18:45] Miracle**
I'm so jealous! I wanted to get first place!
**[18:48] Miracle**
But if I got 1st place, I guess I couldn't
have seen your performance...
**[18:54] Riz**
"You were my source, Riz!"
**[18:56] Miracle**
Are you still laughing about that?
**[18:58] Riz**
I could laugh about it forever!
**[18:59] Riz**
I even wrote it down!
**[19:01] Miracle**
You wrote it down?!
**[19:02] Riz**
I got first place, so they gave
me the data on the race.
**[19:05] Miracle**
You get the data as a bonus?
**[19:07] marumaru**
That Riz girl...
**[19:09] Chris**
...seems to really like Miracle!
**[19:14] Noelle**
Does she?
**[19:17] Riz**
Let's be friends, Miracle.
**[19:20] Riz**
I'm really interested in you!
**[19:31] Auris**
We got some interesting data this time.

Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[20:04] [SONG] Song**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[20:09] [SONG] Song**
The neon of the electronic world where

Flashing by in the gaps between

The unexpected arrow of my admiration

Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[20:43] [SONG] Song**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[20:49] [SONG] Song**
Maybe maybe, in just a

Good day. It's me, Noelle.

Noelle looked really bored,

**[21:18] Noelle**
What do you mean I looked bored?

I think that came out wrong.

Let me try that again.

Miracle got a new friend this week,

**[21:34] Noelle**
No! That's not true at all!
**[21:39] Noelle**

Limited Shiritori
**[21:47] Chris**
Limited Shiritori!
**[21:49] Noelle**
Where did that come from?
**[21:51] Chris**
Limited Shiritori is a type of shiritori
where you can only say words
**[21:55] Chris**
that have to do with a certain theme.
**[21:58] Chris**
Noelle and I are going to play it now.
**[22:02] Noelle**
Huh? We are!
**[22:04] Chris**
We are.
**[22:06] Noelle**
But...
**[22:07] Chris**
The theme is "Words that
would make Miracle excited."
**[22:11] Chris**
This is a type of Limited Shiritori that only
two people who know Miracle well can play.
**[22:17] Noelle**
Hmm... that's right.
**[22:20] Noelle**
Someone who'd only just become friends
with her today wouldn't be able to play it.
**[22:26] Noelle**
Let's do it! Let's play Limited Shiritori!
**[22:29] Chris**
It's cute how easy Noelle is to manipulate.
**[22:31] Noelle**
Did you say something?
**[22:32] Chris**
No.
**[22:34] Chris**
A Limited Shiritori AI app
I developed will be the judge.
**[22:40] Noelle**
What?
**[22:41] Noelle**
When did you have time to make that?
**[22:44] Chris**
That's a secret.
**[22:45] Noelle**
Sometimes I don't get you, Chris.
**[22:50] Chris**
Limited Shiritori! The theme is
"Words that would make Miracle excited!"
**[22:54] Noelle**
Okay, let's do this!
**[22:56] Noelle**
Let's do it!
**[22:57] Chris**
I'll start.
**[22:59] Noelle**
You?
**[23:01] Sign**
Kizuna AI
**[23:01] Chris**
Kizuna AI.
**[23:04] Noelle**
I was going to say that.
**[23:09] Noelle**
Wait... wait...
**[23:10] Noelle**
I...
**[23:11] Noelle**
A word that starts with I that
would make Miracle excited...
**[23:14] Noelle**
I...
**[23:15] Noelle**
Iiiyaaay!
**[23:15] Noelle**
Iiyay!
**[23:20] Chris**
"Iiyay"?
**[23:23] Noelle**
Sorry, give me a sec.
**[23:24] Noelle**
My head went blank.
**[23:26] Noelle**
"Iiyay?" "Iiyay"?
**[23:28] Noelle**
My first word was an onomatopoeia...
**[23:29] Noelle**
I sound kind of stupid.
**[23:31] Chris**
"Yay" isn't an onomatopoeia.
**[23:34] Chris**
It's called an "interjection."
**[23:36] Noelle**
Don't make it worse, Chris!

**[00:05] Miracle**
Ultimate, the racing game made by the
students in the XR Technology Course.
**[00:09] Miracle**
They say if you get first place,
you get to give a special performance!
**[00:14] Miracle**
marumaru helped design an amazing
fogelboard for me, and it was off to the races!
**[00:19] Miracle**
But of course, things didn't go like I hoped.
**[00:23] Miracle**
But a really cool girl helped me.
**[00:26] (Flashback) Miracle**
Um...
**[00:27] (Flashback) Riz**
I'm Riz.
**[00:29] Miracle**
And just when I thought
I'd reached the goal...
**[00:32] (Flashback) Riz**
So first place is mine, okay?
**[00:35] Miracle**
I was planning on getting first place
and having my rank go way up!
**[00:41] Miracle**
I'm in big trouble!
**[00:44] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[00:55] [SONG] Song**
The ground I stood on only looked distorted
**[01:00] [SONG] Song**
Because I saw it through tears of frustration
**[01:05] [SONG] Song**
But standing still isn’t like me!
**[01:10] [SONG] Song**
So I ran like crazy until I was out of breath
**[01:16] [SONG] Song**
No matter how many times I
get discouraged, I still love it
**[01:20] [SONG] Song**
I believe in my friends, and in
the me that’s chasing my dream
**[01:29] [SONG] Song**
Let our sparkling minds spout up
**[01:31] [SONG] Song**
Ride on this future wave!
We’ll go beyond this unstoppable thrill
**[01:36] [SONG] Song**
Race through with all our might
to find the sky we want to see
**[01:41] [SONG] Song**
Each time a dream comes true, the new “now”
is my new starting line, over and over without end
**[01:47] [SONG] Song**
Ride toward the future! The next step we take
**[01:52] [SONG] Song**
Will give rise to opportunity, as
much as all the courage we have
**[01:56] [SONG] Song**
Our shared wish binds us together
as we ride this tailwind
**[02:02] [SONG] Song**
How far can we go? With
our hands linked tightly
**[02:07] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[02:14] Miracle**
~What It Means to Be Me~
**[02:14] Miracle**
~What It Means to Be Me~
**[02:17] Miracle**
I wonder if she'll be here soon.
**[02:26] Riz**
Hey.
**[02:26] Miracle**
R-Riz...
**[02:28] Miracle**
That's one wild way to make an entrance.
**[02:30] Riz**
Ultra Hyper Jet Turbo...
**[02:32] Riz**
I flew here at 10x speed!
**[02:33] Miracle**
Really?
**[02:34] Riz**
No, I'm lying.
**[02:37] Miracle**
Of course.
**[02:40] Miracle**
You're not curious?
**[02:43] Riz**
Not at all.
**[02:44] Riz**
I do keep an eye on it at
all times, though, as data.
**[02:48] Miracle**
Y-You do, huh?
**[02:51] Miracle**
Noelle's in 7th!
**[02:52] Miracle**
She is amazing!
**[02:54] Miracle**
You're 11th.
**[02:57] Miracle**
You're both definitely getting through to the qualifiers.
**[03:00] Riz**
Yeah.
**[03:01] Miracle**
Oh, and there's Chris.
**[03:03] Miracle**
21st...
**[03:05] Miracle**
Her rank's gone way up.
**[03:06] Miracle**
She's almost made it to the qualifiers.
**[03:09] Miracle**
And I'm in 111th place...
**[03:12] Miracle**
I'm not even in the top 100,
let alone the top 15!
**[03:18] Miracle**
And I haven't written my original lyrics!
**[03:22] Miracle**
What do I do? I'm screwed!
**[03:25] Miracle**
Okay, I'll ask everybody for help.
**[03:28] Riz**
By everybody, you mean your friends?
**[03:30] Miracle**
Yeah, they've helped me
out a lot up till now.
**[03:34] Riz**
You mean you've been relying on
other people this whole time?
**[03:37] Riz**
You should know better than that.
**[03:40] Riz**
Start by thinking for yourself.
**[03:43] Riz**
Who's going to find anything compelling
about a person who relies on others
**[03:46] Riz**
and has nothing for themselves?
**[03:53] Noelle**
You're late, Miracle.
**[03:56] Miracle**
Oh, sorry...
**[03:58] Miracle**
Riz, I'll introduce you.
**[04:00] Riz**
I know them!
**[04:01] Riz**
Noelle and Chris, right?
**[04:03] Riz**
I've got your data!
**[04:05] Riz**
Nice to meet you!
**[04:06] Noelle**
Your concert was great!
**[04:09] Noelle**
You hit the high notes in the chorus
better than anybody else.
**[04:14] Riz**
Thanks!
**[04:15] Riz**
Yours was amazing, too.
**[04:17] Riz**
It's so great to see you dance, since
you never make the slightest mistake!
**[04:22] Riz**
And Chris, your ant videos
were fascinating, too.
**[04:25] Riz**
You have a eye for noticing
things that I never would.
**[04:28] Chris**
I'm thinking up stuff for my next
video of ant facts you cAN'T believe.
**[04:32] Noelle**
That series is still going on, huh?
**[04:36] Riz**
I'm looking forward to it!
**[04:39] marumaru**
I'm marumaru...
**[04:42] Riz**
You're so cute and
relaxing to be around...
**[04:44] Riz**
Is it because of these curves
that look like they're good luck?
**[04:47] marumaru**
Hey, let me go!
**[04:54] (Flashback) Riz**
Who's going to find anything compelling
about a person who relies on others
**[04:57] (Flashback) Riz**
and has nothing for themselves?
**[05:00] Miracle**
Has nothing for themselves...
**[05:03] Miracle**
Sorry! I've got somewhere to be!
**[05:06] Miracle**
See you later!

Gesture Game
**[05:41] Miracle**
It's a gesture game, but it wouldn't
be any fun to do it normally,
**[05:45] Miracle**
so I'm going to make it really hard!
**[05:49] Miracle**
Let's get started!
**[05:51] Sign**
Now Gesturing
***SIGN*** Her expression lol
**[06:02] Miracle**
Did you figure it out?
***SIGN*** Ping Pong?
***SIGN*** Maybe a Gorilla?
**[06:07] Miracle**
I see!
***SIGN*** No idea!
**[06:09] Miracle**
The answer is...
***SIGN*** An orangutan who threw his back out
***SIGN*** An orangutan who threw his back out
**[06:10] Miracle**
An orangutan who threw his back out
landing a smash in ping-pong.

Was that too hard?
**[06:19] Miracle**
Let's do one more!
**[06:21] Sign**
Now Gesturing
***SIGN*** Cute
**[06:32] Miracle**
Did you figure that out?
***SIGN*** Maybe a Gorilla?
***SIGN*** I got half of it.
**[06:36] Miracle**
That's close!
**[06:38] Miracle**
The answer is a mom who's hanging the laundry
**[06:39] Sign**

***SIGN*** Cute bird
**[06:47] Miracle**
That's all for today!
***SIGN*** A mom...
**[06:50] Miracle**
Link up if you liked it!
***SIGN*** Bye~
**[06:56] Miracle**
How'd that video yesterday go?
**[07:00] Miracle**
Nice! My rank went up a little!
**[07:03] Miracle**
If I keep doing this daily, it'll go up!
**[07:07] Miracle**
My performances are important too,
so I'll try the same thing there.

**[07:24] Noelle**
I wondered why we haven't
seen Miracle for a while.
**[07:27] Noelle**
She's been busy upping these videos.
**[07:29] Chris**
This isn't like Miracle.
**[07:31] Chris**
Is she trying to figure out
her problems alone?
**[07:33] Riz**
She seems kind of different
than she did during Ultimate.
***SIGN*** You keep copying people.
***SIGN*** Have you lost sight of who you are?
***SIGN*** You've got no originality.
***SIGN*** Don't you have any ideas of your own?
**[07:40] Miracle**
What is this?
**[07:43] Miracle**
No... but...
***SIGN*** You keep copying people.
***SIGN*** Have you lost sight of who you are?
***SIGN*** You've got no originality.
***SIGN*** Don't you have any ideas of your own?
**[07:46] Miracle**
Stop!
**[07:50] Miracle**
My rank's gone down...
**[07:52] Riz**
Is that what Miracle's like?
**[07:55] Noelle**
What do you mean?
**[07:56] Riz**
Having other people
solve her problems for her...
**[07:58] Riz**
Doing anything for a Link...
**[08:00] Chris**
That's not true.
**[08:02] Chris**
She's not like this.
**[08:04] Chris**
Miracle's always worried,
panicked, and confused...
**[08:09] Chris**
But she's always put in a lot
of effort, one thing at a time.
**[08:12] Noelle**
I can never figure out if she's got guts,
or she's just empty-headed.
**[08:16] marumaru**
She definitely works hard, though.
**[08:21] Riz**
I told Miracle to try and think for herself.
**[08:26] Riz**
She said she was asking you guys for help.
**[08:29] Noelle**
That's why she's avoiding us.
**[08:34] Noelle**
Well, let's see what she does.
**[08:36] Noelle**
What you said wasn't wrong.
**[08:39] Noelle**
And she was the one who decided to try
and figure things out for herself.
**[08:43] Noelle**
She'll probably get down,
but I'm sure she'll get over it.
**[08:53] Miracle**
*Maybe I* should *ask them for help.*
**[09:02] Noelle**
Yeah, I can't believe it.
**[09:04] Riz**
Right? Me neither!
**[09:08] Miracle**
*What are they talking about?*
**[09:10] Riz**
Don't you *dare* try to imitate it.
**[09:13] Noelle**
Of course I wouldn't.
**[09:14] Miracle**
*Imitate it?*
**[09:16] Miracle**
*Are they talking about me?*
**[09:18] Riz**
I could never do something
as disgusting as that!
**[09:21] Riz**
I refuse!
**[09:22] Noelle**
Y-Yeah, I guess I agree.
**[09:24] Noelle**
Me, too.
**[09:26] Miracle**
*Refuse to be with someone like that?*
**[09:31] Students**
Riz is amazing!
**[09:34] Students**
She's cute and cool!
**[09:36] Students**
I wish I could be like her!
**[09:37] Students**
If only I could perform like that...
**[09:44] Miracle**
*Why?*
**[09:45] Miracle**
*Riz is amazing. I know that.*
**[09:47] Miracle**
* But I worked hard too!*
* I almost got first place!*
**[09:52] Miracle**
*It could've been me up there!*
**[09:55] Sign**
You think you
can be a virtual artist
like that?
**[09:58] Sign**
You suck!
**[09:58] Sign**
I never want to be like you.
**[10:02] Miracle**
*Stop it!*
**[10:03] Miracle**
*What's wrong with what I'm doing?*
**[10:05] Miracle**
*What do I do? I don't know!*
**[10:09] Miracle**
*Do I not belong here?*
**[10:12] Miracle**
*Maybe I should quit...*
**[10:14] Miracle**
* No matter how hard I work,*
* I can't beat people who have talent.*
**[10:18] Miracle**
*No! If I quit, I'll have nothing left!*
**[10:22] Miracle**
*I'll just be even more worthless.*
**[10:24] Miracle**
* And I won't be able to see the*
* friends I made here anymore!*
**[10:29] Miracle**
*But...*
**[10:30] (Flashback) Riz**
I could never do something
as disgusting as that!
**[10:33] (Flashback) Riz**
I refuse!
**[10:34] (Flashback) Noelle**
Y-Yeah, I guess I agree.
**[10:36] (Flashback) Noelle**
Me, too.
**[10:39] Miracle**
They wouldn't know how I feel.
**[10:41] Miracle**
No matter what they do, they're amazing.
People pay attention to them.
**[10:51] Sign**
Riz is amazing!
**[10:51] Sign**
I wasted my time watching this.
**[10:52] Sign**
She's cute and cool! I wish I could be like her!
**[10:52] Sign**
You suck!
**[10:52] Sign**
If only I could perform like that...
**[10:52] Sign**
I never want to be like you.
**[10:53] Sign**
You think you can be a virtual artist like that?
**[10:53] Miracle**
*Maybe I can't keep this up anymore...*
**[11:05] Noelle**
It's so quiet it's actually hard to relax!
**[11:32] Miracle**
I could at least watch the news...
**[12:22] Miracle**
Sorry for just sitting
down without asking...
**[12:26] Miracle**
Hi.
**[12:28] Miracle**
Thanks.
**[12:36] Miracle**
Did you change the tea leaves you used?
**[12:39] Quan**
No.
**[12:40] Miracle**
You didn't? It tastes different.
**[12:43] Quan**
It's the same as ever.
**[12:45] Miracle**
No, that's not true.
**[12:48] Miracle**
I can't believe you can't
tell the difference!
**[12:50] Quan**
I'm the one who made the tea.
**[12:52] Miracle**
Yes, but...
**[12:53] Vanity**
Miracle-san!
**[12:56] Vanity**
Delivery for you!
**[13:03] Miracle**
* That's right! I haven't*
* eaten any real food lately!*
**[13:09] Miracle**
By the way, this is...
**[13:11] Vanity**
It's an ADEN gift from Riz-san.
**[13:14] Miracle**
From Riz?
**[13:15] Vanity**
Your GPS said you were in your room,
so it was hard to find you.
**[13:19] Vanity**
What happened to your VANITIM?
**[13:24] Quan**
Want another cup?
**[13:29] Quan**
Then you're quitting?
**[13:35] Miracle**
I'm just tired of it all.
**[13:37] Miracle**
Maybe if my ranking never goes up...
**[13:41] Miracle**
Maybe then I'll be free from this pain...
**[13:46] Miracle**
I find myself thinking that.
**[13:49] Quan**
This is the one thing you
try to decide for yourself?
**[13:56] Noelle**
Are you being a spoiled brat again?
**[13:58] Miracle**
Noelle...
**[14:00] Noelle**
Can you throw away everything
you've built so far?
**[14:06] Miracle**
Chris...
**[14:07] Chris**
Miracle, will this make you feel better?
**[14:12] Chris**
"I'm Thinking About Ants in the Digital Forest!"
**[14:16] Chris**
Hello, this is Chris.
**[14:18] Chris**
Today, I'm making a video to cheer
someone up, so I've left the studio.
**[14:23] Chris**
Wow, that's ant-mazing!
**[14:25] Chris**
I cAN'T believe you'd do that!
**[14:28] Miracle**
Chris...
**[14:30] Riz**
She sure is mysterious...
**[14:32] Riz**
We can watch the rest of that later.
**[14:34] Riz**
For now, I think this is more important.
**[14:36] [SONG] Song**
Let's let it resonate loud and far
**[14:39] [SONG] Song**
Even if we're far apart
**[14:42] [SONG] Song**
I want to believe in the
future projected in your eyes
**[14:49] [SONG] Song**
I won't be afraid anymore; I'll
transcend the reason I was born
**[14:55] [SONG] Song**
I'll reach out toward tomorrow
and change the world
**[15:04] [SONG] Song**
Let's search for our destinies and link
**[15:05] Miracle**
AI-chan...
**[15:11] AI**
*It's okay. We're connected.*
**[15:11] [SONG] Song**
I connect with you
**[15:15] Miracle**
AI-chan.
**[15:17] AI**
*Come on, take a look around you.*
**[15:21] Noelle**
See. We're connected.
**[15:24] Miracle**
I was thinking I wanted to quit
being a virtual artist...
**[15:30] Miracle**
I was worried that maybe we wouldn't be able
**[15:33] Miracle**
to all go to the Virtual Grid Awards
together like I said...
**[15:41] Miracle**
And I wanted to run away.
**[15:45] Miracle**
So I left the virtual world...
**[15:48] Miracle**
I left everyone...
**[15:50] Miracle**
But it's all still here...
**[15:54] Miracle**
I want to keep doing this!
I want to stay connected with everyone!
**[15:59] Noelle**
Then stay with us.
**[16:02] Riz**
Miracle, being dependent on your friends
and just following behind them
**[16:06] Riz**
is totally different than walking
into the future alongside them.
**[16:09] Miracle**
Alongside them...
**[16:12] Chris**
I want to walk into the future with you.
**[16:16] Miracle**
But I'm like this.
**[16:18] Chris**
And that's okay with me.
**[16:20] Noelle**
That's right. Be who you are.
**[16:23] Noelle**
You don't need to overthink things.
**[16:25] Miracle**
Be myself...
**[16:29] Miracle**
Guys! I get it!
**[16:32] Miracle**
I'm done thinking about complicated stuff!
**[16:35] Miracle**
I'm done worrying!
**[16:36] Miracle**
I'll just be who I am!
**[16:40] Riz**
Using your head a little wouldn't hurt you.
**[16:44] Miracle**
For now, I'm hungry so I'll eat!
**[16:49] Riz**
Oh, that's right. Miracle, you don't eat
rice with your okonomiyaki, do you?
**[16:54] Miracle**
Huh?
**[16:55] Noelle**
Riz says she could never hang out with
somebody who ate rice with their okonomiyaki.
**[17:01] Miracle**
Is that...
**[17:03] (Flashback) Riz**
I could never do something
as disgusting as that!
**[17:06] (Flashback) Riz**
I refuse!
**[17:08] (Flashback) Noelle**
Y-Yeah, I guess I agree.
**[17:10] (Flashback) Noelle**
Me, too.
**[17:12] Miracle**
That's what you meant?
**[17:15] Miracle**
I got fooled!
**[17:17] Noelle**
Don't talk with your mouth full!
**[17:20] Miracle**
But...
**[17:22] Riz**
That's our Miracle.
**[17:23] Chris**
Yup.
**[17:26] Miracle**
You want some, too?
**[17:28] Noelle**
Hey! You got sauce on me!
**[17:38] Vanity**
Miracle, you've got lots of emails
to answer and homework to do.
**[17:41] Vanity**
Where will you begin?
**[17:44] Miracle**
Thanks, Vanity.
**[17:46] Miracle**
But first there's something I want to do.
**[17:50] Computer**
*Ready?*
**[17:57] Riz**
So that video...
**[18:00] Miracle**
Will you all listen to my song?
**[18:04] All**
Yeah.
**[18:07] Miracle**
I was able to connect with everyone
because I was a virtual artist.
**[18:12] Miracle**
But I got worried again and panicked,
and wanted to quit...
**[18:18] Miracle**
But... I'm still not good.
I'm still like this...
**[18:24] Miracle**
But there's words that only
I can sing! I know it!
**[18:27] Miracle**
And here, in this infinite virtual world,
I'm going to express them the best that I can!
**[18:34] Miracle**
So that everyone who's by
my side, who supports me,
**[18:37] Miracle**
who walks into the future
with me, can hear them!
**[18:40] [SONG] Song**
I can be who I want to be
**[18:44] [SONG] Song**
Come on, it's time to go
**[18:46] [SONG] Song**
I'll start running MY WAY
**[18:57] [SONG] Song**
The song I listened to
all day when I was little
**[19:04] [SONG] Song**
If I just sing it as hard as
I can, I'll stumble but...
**[19:11] [SONG] Song**
Now I've logged in to a new world
**[19:14] [SONG] Song**
Here, you can make everything into holography
**[19:18] [SONG] Song**
except your passionate feelings
**[19:23] [SONG] Song**
There's another me who
whispers that I'm scared
**[19:30] [SONG] Song**
Just for now, I’ll shut it
out and dive onto the stage!
**[19:40] [SONG] Song**
I can be who I want to be
**[19:43] [SONG] Song**
With a strong, strong wish
**[19:47] [SONG] Song**
No matter what future awaits me
**[19:50] [SONG] Song**
I can take a step forward
if everyone's with me
**[19:53] [SONG] Song**
Let's go to find the stage
**[19:57] [SONG] Song**
where I can change my boring self
**[20:00] [SONG] Song**
Look, it's the starting line
**[20:03] [SONG] Song**
From here on out, it's all up to me
**[20:06] [SONG] Song**
I'll take flight into infiniti∞
**[20:12] Chris**
I heard the song that only you can sing.
**[20:15] Riz**
You did it all by yourself.
**[20:18] Miracle**
Thanks! But it's thanks to all of you.
**[20:22] Miracle**
I was able to come back here
because everyone was here for me.
**[20:25] Noelle**
Miracle.
**[20:30] Miracle**
Are you angry again? It's been so long!
**[20:33] Noelle**
Welcome back!
**[20:36] Miracle**
I can't breathe!
**[20:42] Miracle**
I'm back!
**[20:46] marumaru**
I can't stay like this forever, either.
**[21:04] [SONG] Song**
I became aware of my love
**[21:15] [SONG] Song**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[21:20] [SONG] Song**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[21:25] [SONG] Song**
The neon of the electronic world where
we intersect is burned into my brain
**[21:30] [SONG] Song**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[21:36] [SONG] Song**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[21:41] [SONG] Song**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[21:46] [SONG] Song**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[21:51] [SONG] Song**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying
**[21:54] [SONG] Song**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[21:59] [SONG] Song**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[22:05] [SONG] Song**
Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[22:09] [SONG] Song**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other
**[22:15] [SONG] Song**
I am waiting for... forever

**[00:11] (Flashback) Miracle**
Maybe if my ranking never goes up...

Maybe then I'll be free from this pain...

* being a virtual artist, but...*
**[00:22] (Flashback) Noelle**
Can you throw away everything
you've built so far?
**[00:26] marumaru**
* With some encouragement from her friends,*

*And she finally completed her original lyrics*

Because I saw it through tears of frustration
**[01:00] [SONG] Song**
But standing still isn’t like me!
**[01:05] [SONG] Song**
So I ran like crazy until I was out of breath
**[01:11] [SONG] Song**
No matter how many times I
get discouraged, I still love it
**[01:15] [SONG] Song**
I believe in my friends, and in
the me that’s chasing my dream
**[01:24] [SONG] Song**
Let our sparkling minds spout up
**[01:26] [SONG] Song**
Ride on this future wave!
We’ll go beyond this unstoppable thrill
**[01:31] [SONG] Song**
Race through with all our might
to find the sky we want to see
**[01:36] [SONG] Song**
Each time a dream comes true, the new “now”
is my new starting line, over and over without end
**[01:42] [SONG] Song**
Ride toward the future! The next step we take
**[01:47] [SONG] Song**

marumaru, I'm sorry for worrying you.
**[02:20] marumaru**
I wasn't worried...
**[02:23] Noelle**
You looked more bored than
any of us without her here.
**[02:26] Riz**
Well, you looked pretty sad, Noelle.
**[02:29] Noelle**
Th-That's not true!
**[02:31] Chris**
Noelle, your face is bright red.
**[02:32] Noelle**
Come on, Miracle!
**[02:34] Noelle**
You need to practice and
make up for lost time!
**[02:36] Noelle**
I'll help you.
**[02:48] Miracle**
I'm so tired!
**[02:49] Miracle**
Time for a little rest.
**[02:52] Miracle**
I think Noelle's stricter
than she was before.
**[02:55] marumaru**
Probably because you can do more
now than you could before.
**[02:58] Miracle**
You think?
**[03:00] marumaru**
Yeah. You look happier
out there than before.
**[03:03] Miracle**
Well, that's thanks to all of you.
**[03:07] marumaru**
I'm jealous.
**[03:10] marumaru**
No, nothing.
**[03:12] Miracle**
But you just said...
**[03:13] Noelle**
Miracle! Break's over!
**[03:15] marumaru**
Hear that? She's calling you.
**[03:21] Miracle**
Yeah...
**[03:29] Miracle**
I wonder if marumaru wants to try it, too.
**[03:32] Miracle**
But they said they don't
like being looked at...
**[03:35] Miracle**
But they just said...
**[03:38] Vanity**
Miracle-san, it's almost bedtime.
**[03:42] Miracle**
I know, but...
**[03:46] Miracle**
I wonder if there's a good way
to get an answer out of marumaru...
**[03:50] Vanity**
Tut-tut!
**[03:51] Vanity**
If you want restful sleep,
**[03:53] Vanity**
it is recommended to turn off all electronic
devices 30 minutes before bedtime!
**[03:56] Miracle**
This is it!
**[04:00] Noelle**
The Shower of Sound Festival?
**[04:02] Miracle**
Yup! Its theme is "make a
rainbow with a shower of song."
**[04:07] Miracle**
And if you enter, you can
perform at the festival.
**[04:11] Miracle**
Want to do it?
**[04:14] Chris**
You participate as a unit.
**[04:15] Chris**
You can pick your avatar and
everything else you want.
**[04:18] Chris**
Participants get a special
event NFT as a present.
**[04:22] Chris**
And the winning unit gets an awesome prize.
**[04:26] Riz**
I've never done a concert
as a unit, so I'm curious.
**[04:30] Riz**
I could get some new data, I bet.
**[04:33] Noelle**
I need to think about it.
**[04:36] Miracle**
Let me know what you decide, okay?
**[04:39] Miracle**
What about you, marumaru?
**[04:40] Riz**
Miracle, are you serious?
**[04:42] Miracle**
I sure am.
**[04:44] Miracle**
I figured it would be fun
if we all did it together.
**[04:47] Miracle**
How about it?
**[04:50] marumaru**
Um...
**[04:54] marumaru**
I want to try it.
**[04:57] Miracle**
Yay!
**[04:58] Riz**
I didn't think marumaru would want to do it.
**[05:01] Chris**
It would make me happy if you were with us.
**[05:04] Riz**
Let's decide on our song and
the choreography, then!
**[05:08] Riz**
There's no time to waste!
**[05:09] Miracle**
marumaru, let's do our best!
**[05:11] marumaru**
Yeah.
**[05:18] Noelle**
Miracle.
**[05:20] Noelle**
Your hands go like this, right?
**[05:21] Noelle**
You had it wrong last time, too.
**[05:23] Miracle**
Oh, you're right.
**[05:24] Miracle**
Thanks.
**[05:25] Noelle**
And marumaru, you're off the beat a bit.
**[05:28] marumaru**
Okay, I'll be careful.
**[05:30] Riz**
Come join us, Noelle.
**[05:32] Noelle**
B-But...
**[05:34] Riz**
Just admit you want to do it.
**[05:38] Noelle**
F-Fine!
**[05:40] Noelle**
I'll do it! For you guys!
**[05:43] Miracle**
Noelle!
**[05:45] Noelle**
But there'll be no half-assing
things now that I'm here, okay?
**[05:49] Chris**
That awesome prize is ours.
**[05:54] Miracle**
There are so many videos for
the Shower of Sound Festival.
**[05:58] Noelle**
Everybody's taking it really seriously.
**[06:02] Miracle**
I see a dance practice video, too.
**[06:04] Noelle**
I see. Some people are getting fans
before the festival even starts.
**[06:09] Miracle**
Do you get fans by doing that?
**[06:11] Noelle**
Well, if you appear in an event,
you can talk about your unit,
**[06:15] Noelle**
and if you win, people will
talk about you online!
**[06:18] Miracle**
Hey, let's upload a video, too!
**[06:21] Noelle**
Good idea!
**[06:22] Miracle**
I need to call everyone right now!
**[06:25] Noelle**
Hello, it's me, Noelle!
**[06:27] Miracle**
Hi, I'm Miracle.
**[06:29] Chris**
And I'm Chris.
**[06:30] Noelle**
We're all doing a collab video
today on all of our channels!
**[06:37] Miracle**
I'm having so much fun that
I'm not nervous at all!
**[06:40] Noelle**
You should be a little nervous.
**[06:42] Chris**
I have an announcement.
**[06:44] Noelle**
That's extraordinarily sudden.
**[06:46] Chris**
Well, it's important to
keep up the momentum.
**[06:48] Chris**
Right, Miracle?
**[06:50] Miracle**
Yes!
**[06:50] Miracle**

We'll be uploading our dance practice,
**[07:07] Miracle**
so watch to find out who the other two are!
**[07:10] Miracle**
Now I'm nervous!
**[07:13] Chris**
Things go better if you're
just a little nervous.
**[07:16] Miracle**
I see!
**[07:18] Miracle**
Let's be nervous, then!
**[07:20] Noelle**
I'm not sure if that's
quite right, Miracle...
**[07:24] Chris**
But we hope you'll come see us!
**[07:27] Miracle**
We'll be waiting!
**[07:28] Chris**
We'll also up a video of
Noelle being angry at Miracle.
**[07:32] Miracle**
Noelle's scary when she gets angry.
**[07:35] Noelle**
Miracle!
**[07:37] Miracle**
Why does she only get angry at me?
**[07:39] Miracle**
Chris is the one who told everyone!
**[07:41] Chris**
We hope we can count on your support.
**[07:43] Chris**
Goodbye!
**[07:45] All**
Goodbye!
**[07:48] Noelle**
Hey! Miracle! Wait!
**[07:55] Riz**
They said watching Noelle
and Miracle was funny.
**[07:57] Riz**
It's a good advertisement.
**[08:00] Miracle**
Great!
**[08:02] Noelle**
How is it a good advertisement?
**[08:05] Miracle**
Why only me?

Come on! Let's take that video!
**[08:09] All**
Okay!

I can't just sit back and let this happen.

No, it's not something for

I just finished dance practice.
**[10:18] Quan**
You're working hard, huh?
**[10:20] Miracle**
Yes. I'm going to be in an event.
**[10:22] Miracle**
Me and four of my friends are
performing as a unit for the first time.
**[10:26] Miracle**
There's a lot of stuff to be done, but...
**[10:29] Miracle**
I'm looking forward to it.
**[10:31] Quan**
I see.
**[10:33] Quan**
Um...
**[10:34] Quan**
There's something I want to ask you.
**[10:36] Miracle**
Ask me?
**[10:38] Quan**
Yeah, it's about a friend.
**[10:42] Quan**
They have something they want to do,
**[10:45] Quan**
but they're not sure how
to go about it, I guess.
**[10:49] Quan**
What do you think they should do?
**[10:52] Miracle**
Huh?
**[10:53] Quan**
*O-Oh no, that just came out of nowhere!*
**[10:56] Quan**
*But I'll just have to keep asking...*
**[10:59] Miracle**
I don't know.
**[11:01] Miracle**
Oh, but... I say everything
I'm thinking aloud.
**[11:06] Miracle**
It feels like I'm working
through things with myself.
**[11:11] Miracle**
It kind of helps me figure
out what I want to be.
**[11:15] Quan**
I see.
**[11:17] Quan**
Maybe I'll try that.
**[11:19] Quan**
I-I mean, my friend will!
**[11:21] Miracle**
Go for it!
**[11:27] Quan**
*Thank you.*
**[11:34] Quan**
*Everything I'm thinking...*
**[11:40] Quan**
*It's all negative stuff.*
**[11:44] Quan**
* Is it okay for me to sing*
* with everyone like this?*
**[11:52] Noelle**
Yes, like that.
**[11:54] marumaru**
Everyone, um...
**[11:57] Miracle**
It's okay!
**[12:00] Miracle**
Those comments! You can ignore them!
**[12:03] Miracle**
You're working hard, marumaru!
**[12:05] Miracle**
You don't need to get down!
**[12:07] marumaru**
But...
**[12:08] Noelle**
Miracle, why even bring it up?
**[12:11] Miracle**
I wanted to make sure I said it...
**[12:14] Riz**
You know, we're fine with
having you stay like that.
**[12:21] Noelle**
Yes.
**[12:22] Noelle**
It's not a problem.
**[12:24] Chris**
Yeah, not at all.
**[12:27] marumaru**
But it's causing problems for all of you...
**[12:29] Noelle**
No, it's not.
**[12:32] Riz**
We picked these avatars
because we liked them.
**[12:35] Chris**
We get to decide.
**[12:37] Miracle**
marumaru, here you can be
anything, and do anything.
**[12:42] Miracle**
So...
**[12:44] Miracle**
You can stay as you are, marumaru!
**[12:48] Miracle**
Or are you not having fun?
**[12:50] marumaru**
Well...
**[12:52] Miracle**
If you're having fun,
that's all that matters.
**[12:57] marumaru**
I am having fun!
**[12:58] Miracle**
Then it's settled!
**[13:00] Noelle**
Let's get back to practicing, everyone!
**[13:03] Chris**
Practice! Practice!
**[13:05] Riz**
marumaru, I changed up our formation.
**[13:08] Riz**
So we'll be practicing even harder today.
**[13:12] Miracle**
Riz says she's not gonna let anybody
say you don't fit in anymore.
**[13:17] marumaru**
I'll... do my best!
**[13:26] Noelle**
Miracle!
**[13:28] Noelle**
No running off on your own!
**[13:30] Noelle**
Let's head to the dressing rooms first.
**[13:33] MC**
*Thanks to everyone from group #17!*
**[13:37] Miracle**
They were really good...
**[13:40] Noelle**
Why are you getting down?
**[13:41] Noelle**
We're going to win this!
**[13:43] Riz**
Yeah! We're going to amaze everyone!
**[13:45] Chris**
We want that awesome prize!
**[13:49] Miracle**
marumaru, what do I do?
**[13:51] Miracle**
My heart's pounding...
**[13:54] marumaru**
Let's do our best.
**[13:56] Announcer**
Next, entry number #18!
**[13:58] Miracle**
Th-That's us!
**[14:02] Miracle**
Let's do this, everyone! Give it our best!
**[14:05] All**
Right!
**[14:27] MC (Male)**
Thank you for those wonderful performances!
**[14:30] MC (Male)**
The shower of songs you created gave
us so many beautiful rainbows!
**[14:35] MC (Female)**
But which unit made the biggest rainbow?
**[14:39] MC (Female)**
Here are the results!
**[14:46] MC (Female)**
The winners are...
**[14:53] Miracle**
Noelle, Riz, I totally feel like we won...
**[14:58] marumaru**
Riz, Noelle...
**[15:00] marumaru**
We didn't win, but I'll never
forget what happened today.
**[15:06] marumaru**
Thank you!
**[15:09] Noelle**
We'll give it another try next year!
**[15:11] Riz**
Yeah!
**[15:12] Riz**
We got plenty of data!
**[15:14] Riz**
Next time, we'll win!
**[15:18] Miracle**
Is this our NFT?
**[15:22] Noelle**
They did say we'd get one
for participating, right?
**[15:27] Miracle**
I can't wait for next year!
**[15:35] Quan**
I need to write down these
feelings so I remember them...
**[15:44] Quan**
Is that from Miracle?
**[15:46] Miracle**
*Photos from today have been upped already!*
**[15:49] Quan**
Already? That's fast.
***SIGN*** That was great! I had so much fun watching it. I want to see more. Miracle's the girl who was upping all those weird videos. Is she being weird again?
**[15:59] Quan**
This...
***SIGN*** It's obvious they wanted to use the cute mascot to raise their ranking They thought the mascot would help them stand out.
**[16:02] Quan**
Why would you say that?
**[16:05] Quan**
You don't know anything!
**[16:07] (Flashback) Miracle**
You can stay as you are, marumaru!
**[16:17] Miracle**
marumaru!
**[16:26] marumaru**
I want to stand beside everyone,
as the "me" I chose to be!
**[16:43] Miracle**
I was really surprised when I got that
message from marumaru yesterday.
**[16:47] Miracle**
They don't usually send stuff like that.
**[16:48] marumaru**
What do they want to talk about, I wonder?
**[16:50] marumaru**
Everybody, thanks for coming.
**[16:54] Miracle**
What is it?
**[16:56] marumaru**
There's something I want you to see.
**[17:00] marumaru**
Follow me.
**[17:08] marumaru**
I've never seen this place before!
**[17:14] Chris**
Look.
**[17:15] Miracle**
Wow, a huge flower bud!
**[17:19] marumaru**
Thanks, everyone.
**[17:22] marumaru**
For saying that I could stay as I am.
**[17:25] marumaru**
It's because of all you... That I was
able to move forward once more.
**[17:30] marumaru**
No matter what I look like,
you'll still be there for me.
**[17:35] marumaru**
So... I won't run anymore!
**[17:43] Riz**
The flower...
**[17:45] Noelle**
It's beautiful!
**[18:01] Miracle**
Are you... marumaru?
**[18:05] Quan**
Yeah.
**[18:06] Quan**
There's a song I want you all to hear.
**[18:09] Quan**
Will you listen?
**[18:12] [SONG] Song**
The flower bud blooms
**[18:16] [SONG] Song**
as it melts the snow and
I shine and be myself
**[18:29] [SONG] Song**
People expect too much from me
and it makes me feel so alone
**[18:36] [SONG] Song**
I dropped to my knees and
locked away my feelings
**[18:43] [SONG] Song**
I want to share the world within me
**[18:50] [SONG] Song**
But this glaze is impossibly sweet
**[18:55] [SONG] Song**
I'll sign out from this boring level
**[19:03] [SONG] Song**
work up just a bit more
courage and move forward
**[19:12] [SONG] Song**
The flower bud blooms
**[19:15] [SONG] Song**
and melts the ice in my heart
**[19:19] [SONG] Song**
I want to change, I'm not alone anymore
**[19:22] [SONG] Song**
The real me is going to bloom
**[19:26] [SONG] Song**
As the snow melts and washes away
**[19:29] [SONG] Song**
it heals my feelings
**[19:33] [SONG] Song**
I can change, I'm not alone anymore
**[19:36] [SONG] Song**
I'll go forward one step
at a time and be myself
**[19:45] Miracle**
Wow, that was amazing, marumaru!
**[19:48] Quan**
Quan...
**[19:51] Quan**
My name.
**[19:53] Miracle**
Quan...
**[19:55] Quan**
Miracle, will you sing with me again?
**[19:59] Miracle**
Of course!
**[20:01] Miracle**
Glad to have you, Quan!
**[20:17] [SONG] Song**
I became aware of my love
**[20:29] [SONG] Song**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[20:34] [SONG] Song**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[20:39] [SONG] Song**
The neon of the electronic world where
we intersect is burned into my brain
**[20:44] [SONG] Song**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[20:50] [SONG] Song**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[20:55] [SONG] Song**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[21:00] [SONG] Song**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[21:05] [SONG] Song**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying
**[21:08] [SONG] Song**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[21:13] [SONG] Song**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[21:18] [SONG] Song**
Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[21:23] [SONG] Song**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other
**[21:29] [SONG] Song**
I am waiting for... forever

**[21:39] Noelle**
Hello. It's me, Noelle!
**[21:41] Miracle**
Hey, there! It's Miracle!
**[21:43] Chris**
And Chris!
**[21:44] Noelle**
We're doing another collab video!
**[21:46] Chris**
Today we're talking about the
time Noelle got angry at Miracle!
**[21:50] Miracle**
You can't talk about that! Everyone will know
how scary Noelle gets when she's angry!
**[21:53] Chris**
You already told everyone in our last video.
**[21:59] Noelle**
Miracle.
**[22:00] Miracle**
H-Huh?
**[22:06] Noelle**
Hold it!
**[22:08] Noelle**
Now I'm angry!
**[22:10] Miracle**
You're always angry!
**[22:12] Noelle**
Get ready!
**[22:16] Chris**
I'll explain what just happened.
**[22:17] Chris**
Miracle just tripped and
fell flat on her face,
**[22:21] Chris**
and then was hit by Noelle's special
finger flick move, and is now writhing in pain.
**[22:24] Noelle**
Chris, I did not "finger flick" her.
**[22:27] Noelle**
Right, Miracle?
**[22:29] Miracle**
Of course not...
**[22:31] Noelle**
There are other fun things
to talk about, right?
**[22:34] Chris**
Like the time Miracle fell asleep while
dancing and started drooling everywhere?
**[22:38] Miracle**
Don't tell them about that!
**[22:40] Miracle**
There's gotta be other stuff, right?
**[22:42] Miracle**
You know, there are lots of
stories about you, Chris!
**[22:44] Noelle**
That's right! You have...
**[22:47] Noelle**
...not a lot.
**[22:49] Miracle**
That can't be right...
**[22:51] Miracle**
It's right.
**[22:52] Chris**
Sorry.
**[22:53] Noelle**
That's right. Chris learned to dance
and sing faster than any of us.
**[22:59] Noelle**
She's perfect.
**[23:00] Noelle**
How do you learn so fast?
**[23:03] Noelle**
Is there some trick?
**[23:07] Chris**
It all kinda comes flooding into your head like
"Bwah!" and then you dance like "Bwah!"
**[23:15] Noelle**
Did you understand any of that?
**[23:17] Miracle**
No.
**[23:19] Noelle**
Chris, you really are mysterious.
**[23:22] Miracle**
Well, that's part of what makes her special.
**[23:25] Noelle**
Thank you.
**[23:27] Miracle**
I'd love to get Riz and Quan on here!
**[23:30] Noelle**
That'd be great!
**[23:31] Miracle**
Look forward to our next video!
**[23:35] Miracle**
Now, everyone...
**[23:37] All**
Goodbye!

I'm joining in the race for

**[23:43] Quan**
But there's just one week left until it's over.
**[23:47] Quan**
Next time on *Kizuna no Allele*: "Stage of Fate!"
**[23:50] Quan**

**[00:04] Noelle**
We entered the Shower of Sound Festival,
**[00:09] Noelle**
but when we uploaded our practice video,
**[00:12] Noelle**
people said all kinds of terrible
things about marumaru.
**[00:15] (Flashback) Miracle**
You can stay as you are, marumaru!
**[00:19] Noelle**
We felt the same as she did,
so the five of us all entered.
**[00:23] Noelle**
It felt great!
**[00:26] Noelle**
But then, they started to bash Miracle.
**[00:30] Noelle**
marumaru saw it and said...
**[00:32] (Flashback) Quan**
Quan...
**[00:33] (Flashback) Quan**
My name.
**[00:35] Noelle**
She came to us reborn in the
form of a beautiful girl!
**[00:39] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[00:50] [SONG] Song**
The ground I stood on only looked distorted
**[00:55] [SONG] Song**
Because I saw it through tears of frustration
**[01:00] [SONG] Song**
But standing still isn’t like me!
**[01:05] [SONG] Song**
So I ran like crazy until I was out of breath
**[01:11] [SONG] Song**
No matter how many times I
get discouraged, I still love it
**[01:15] [SONG] Song**
I believe in my friends, and in
the me that’s chasing my dream
**[01:24] [SONG] Song**
Let our sparkling minds spout up
**[01:26] [SONG] Song**
Ride on this future wave!
We’ll go beyond this unstoppable thrill
**[01:31] [SONG] Song**
Race through with all our might
to find the sky we want to see
**[01:36] [SONG] Song**
Each time a dream comes true, the new “now”
is my new starting line, over and over without end
**[01:42] [SONG] Song**
Ride toward the future! The next step we take
**[01:47] [SONG] Song**
Will give rise to opportunity, as
much as all the courage we have
**[01:51] [SONG] Song**
Our shared wish binds us together
as we ride this tailwind
**[01:57] [SONG] Song**
How far can we go? With
our hands linked tightly
**[02:02] [SONG] Song**
Let’s go all the way, until
we reach the greatest stage
**[02:09] Miracle**
I've got a huge announcement for everyone!
**[02:10] Sign**
~Stage of Fate~
**[02:10] Sign**
~Stage of Fate~
**[02:12] Riz**
Announcement?
**[02:14] Miracle**
Get this!
**[02:15] Miracle**
Quan will be entering the race for the VGAs!
**[02:20] Miracle**
Yay!
**[02:22] Noelle**
Really?
**[02:24] Quan**
I thought about it a lot,
but this is my choice.
**[02:28] Miracle**
So we'll all enter the
Virtual Grid Awards together!
**[02:32] Chris**
Okay, let's do our best.
**[02:35] Noelle**
Let's go over this again, then.
**[02:37] Noelle**
If you want to make it through the qualifiers,
you need to place in the top 15.
**[02:42] Miracle**
Wow, Noelle's in 5th place.
**[02:44] Miracle**
Riz is in 8th, and Chris is in 15th!
**[02:47] Miracle**
You're already there!
**[02:49] Noelle**
That isn't the problem.
**[02:51] Noelle**
Look at your own ranking.
**[02:53] Miracle**
I'm... 43rd.
**[02:57] Miracle**
I'm still not there.
**[02:58] Noelle**
Take it seriously.
**[02:59] Miracle**
But I think I can make it
if I try hard enough!
**[03:01] Noelle**
You're not going to get depressed?
**[03:03] Riz**
What about you, Quan?
**[03:05] Quan**
61st.
**[03:06] Miracle**
Wow! And you just entered!
**[03:09] Chris**
That last stream got a lot of attention.
**[03:13] Riz**
Listen. The qualifiers end in a week.
**[03:18] Riz**
Everybody's upping lots of videos.
**[03:21] Noelle**
The rankings are changing all the time.
**[03:24] Noelle**
Both of you need to do whatever
it takes to get in the top 15!
**[03:27] Quan**
Yeah.
**[03:27] Miracle**
Roger!
**[03:28] Quan**
But what kind of stream should we do?
**[03:31] Miracle**
I know!
**[03:33] Sign**
MiraQuan Super-Meeting
**[03:33] Miracle**
It's the MiraQuan...
**[03:34] Quan**
Super-Meeting!
**[03:36] Miracle**
Let's all discuss how Quan
and I can get in the top 15!
**[03:41] Miracle**
Noelle!
**[03:42] Noelle**
Work really hard!
**[03:44] Miracle**
Tell me what to work hard at... Riz-san!
**[03:47] Riz**
At coming up with a way to win!
**[03:50] Miracle**
That's what I'm asking!
**[03:52] Noelle**
We can't just come up with something!
**[03:53] Miracle**
Thanks for your support!
**[03:57] Miracle**
Well?
**[03:59] Chris**
We all lost 1 rank apiece.
**[04:01] Miracle**
Why?!
**[04:03] Noelle**
You're not thinking at all...
**[04:06] Quan**
Hey...
**[04:07] Quan**
Can we do another concert?
**[04:10] Quan**
With the five of us!
**[04:13] Noelle**
That's right. Last time,
you went as marumaru...
**[04:17] Chris**
But if we do a collab concert with Quan,
who everyone's talking about,
**[04:20] Chris**
we'll definitely go viral.
**[04:22] Miracle**
Great! Let's do it.
**[04:24] Noelle**
Wait.
**[04:26] Noelle**
I thought it was a good idea too, but...
**[04:29] Girl**
Everyone, the four of us will
be doing a collab concert
**[04:33] Girl**
to get into the Virtual Grid Awards today!
**[04:37] Riz**
Since Shower of Sound, a lot of people
at ADEN have been forming units.
**[04:42] Noelle**
Yeah, you can team up with students
from anywhere in the world.
**[04:47] Chris**
Some groups have already gone viral.
**[04:49] Miracle**
Then we should do our own stream, too!
**[04:52] Riz**
No, I think if we did it now,
not many people would care.
**[04:56] Miracle**
Why?
**[04:58] Riz**
With this stuff if you don't get it right the
first time, you won't leave any impression.
**[05:03] Noelle**
We'd need to do an amazing concert,
like one nobody's ever done...
**[05:09] Miracle**
Then let's do an amazing concert!
**[05:12] Miracle**
We've still got a week!
**[05:14] Miracle**
Let's do something big
that'll shock everyone!
**[05:19] Chris**
Any ideas?
**[05:21] Miracle**
Well, I'll think about that starting now!
**[05:25] Noelle**
You're always like this...
**[05:27] Miracle**
But...
**[05:33] Auris**
Hello there, Lapin d'Or Ada.
**[05:36] Auris**
What's the woman in charge
of the VGAs doing here?
**[05:42] Ada**
Principal Auris,
**[05:44] Ada**
it seems all the students
at ADEN are working hard.
**[05:48] Auris**
Yes, thank you.
**[05:49] Ada**
But can you explain what's
happening right now?
**[05:53] Auris**
What are you referring to?
**[05:55] Ada**
Lately it's been popular for students to
join up with others and do collab concerts.
**[06:02] Auris**
Is that a problem?
**[06:05] Ada**
There's nothing wrong with collabs,
but they're all looking the same.
**[06:11] Ada**
If you want to call yourself an artist,
**[06:13] Ada**
shouldn't you try to have your own
originality that nobody else can copy?
**[06:21] Ada**
If connecting with someone else kills what
makes you unique, then it means nothing.
**[06:27] Auris**
So you're telling me to ban
collab concerts for the students?
**[06:32] Ada**
I'll let you decide.
**[06:35] Auris**
I understand your point of view.
**[06:38] Ada**
Then...
**[06:39] Auris**
Sometimes connecting with someone else
**[06:42] Auris**
can let you create something you
could never have made on your own.
**[06:46] Auris**
I want to maximize that possibility.
**[06:50] Auris**
Why don't you give them a little more time?
**[06:56] Ada**
If you insist.
**[07:07] Chris**
Where's Miracle?
**[07:08] Noelle**
She said she was going to
**[07:10] Noelle**
"Do something big that'll shock everyone!"
**[07:13] Noelle**
But then she never came up with an idea...
**[07:19] Quan**
Um...
**[07:20] Miracle**
Hey!
**[07:22] Miracle**
I got a good idea just before I left.
**[07:25] Noelle**
What was it?
**[07:29] Miracle**
Well...
**[07:31] Miracle**
"PathTLive"!
**[07:33] Noelle**
What's that?
**[07:36] Miracle**
The name of our unit!
**[07:39] Chris**
What does it mean?
**[07:41] Miracle**
Um... "Path" is the path we follow.
"Live" is the lives we live.
**[07:45] Miracle**
It means the five of us were apart, then
came together to all follow the same path!
**[07:50] Noelle**
It's a wonderful name.
**[07:52] Miracle**
Right?
**[07:52] Noelle**
But right now you need to be
thinking of concert ideas...
**[07:58] Miracle**
Hey, Quan.
**[08:00] Miracle**
Let's make PathTLive a success!
**[08:05] Quan**
Yeah.
**[08:08] Chris**
What is it?
**[08:10] Riz**
We might be better off not
doing a collab concert.
**[08:13] Miracle**
Why?
**[08:15] Students**
What's this about?
**[08:17] Students**
Why did this happen?
**[08:19] Riz**
The rankings for everybody who did
a collab concert all dropped.
**[08:25] Riz**
The system was changed so that
collabs aren't rewarded.
**[08:29] Miracle**
Changed? Why?
**[08:32] Riz**
I don't know. But...
**[08:34] Riz**
It's a fact that your ranking
basically stops going up.
**[08:37] Miracle**
No... What do we do then?
**[08:46] Quan**
But... why?
**[08:48] Vanity**
Principal Auris, there's been an error
with the ADEN Seed judging system.
**[08:55] Vanity**
We're fixing it now.
**[08:57] Auris**
No need.
**[09:00] Auris**
Let's see what happens.
**[09:09] Sign**
The Next Day
**[09:10] Riz**
Ever since then, everybody's stopped doing
collab concerts and just done their own thing.
**[09:15] Riz**
What about us?
**[09:17] Miracle**
I think the five of us should...
**[09:18] Noelle**
We should all do our own thing.
**[09:21] Miracle**
Noelle!
**[09:23] Noelle**
Do you not want to be in
the Virtual Grid Awards?
**[09:26] Miracle**
I do! That's why the five of us...
**[09:29] Noelle**
Your rank won't go up if
you do a collab concert!
**[09:33] Miracle**
We don't know that until we try!
**[09:36] Miracle**
It feels to me that together, we can
all make something nobody's ever seen.
**[09:42] Quan**
Miracle...
**[09:43] Miracle**
So Noelle... let's do it together!
**[09:47] Noelle**
Get your head out of the clouds!
**[09:50] Noelle**
Accept reality!
**[09:54] Miracle**
Noelle...
**[09:56] Riz**
I understand how you feel.
**[09:58] Miracle**
Then...
**[09:59] Riz**
But my calculations show that
we've got a better chance
**[10:03] Riz**
of making it in the top 15
if we all do our own thing.
**[10:06] Miracle**
But...
**[10:07] Chris**
Miracle...
**[10:11] Miracle**
Fine.
**[10:14] Miracle**
It'd be stupid if we ended up
not even qualifying.
**[10:18] Miracle**
We can all just do our own thing now.
**[10:21] Quan**
Miracle!
**[10:26] Miracle**
I'll see you all next...
at the main event stage.
**[10:44] Students**
Today's the day they're announcing the
top 15 who made it through the qualifiers!
**[10:48] Students**
How many will be coming from
our school, ADEN Theta?
**[10:52] Students**
Just a few hours left...
**[10:54] Students**
Everybody's upping their last videos!
**[10:57] Chris**
I cleared it.
***SIGN*** Wow! A new record!
***SIGN*** But she's so calm.
***SIGN*** Chris's game livestreams are the best!
**[11:03] (Flashback) Chris**
Even if I can't overcome something
on my own, with you, Miracle...
**[11:11] Chris**
*Is this really what I should be doing?*
**[11:20] (Flashback) Noelle**
Miracle, I'm going to try writing lyrics.
**[11:23] (Flashback) Miracle**
Great!
**[11:25] Noelle**
* It's thanks to her that*
* I was able to change...*
**[11:31] Noelle**
*Thanks to her...*
**[11:35] Noelle**
*But...*
**[11:36] Noelle**
*Is this really what I should be doing?*
**[11:41] (Flashback) Riz**
Let's be friends, Miracle.
**[11:43] (Flashback) Riz**
I'm really interested in you!
**[11:47] Riz**
* Something had started to change*
* in me after meeting Miracle.*
**[11:52] Riz**
*But now, she's not here...*
**[11:59] (Flashback) marumaru**
I'm actually really lame.
**[12:03] (Flashback) Miracle**
That's *not* true!
**[12:05] (Flashback) Miracle**
Because you've helped me out with so much!
**[12:09] Quan**
*That's what I should be saying.*
**[12:13] Quan**
*Now it's my turn.*
**[12:16] Quan**
*What I can do now is...*
**[12:23] Vanity**
Miracle-san, time's almost up.
**[12:26] Vanity**
Don't you want to do one last concert?
**[12:30] Miracle**
*This is my last chance.*
**[12:32] Miracle**
* I need to do an amazing stream*
* that will get me in the top 15!*
**[12:38] Miracle**
*No... I don't know what to do!*
**[12:40] Miracle**
* I don't know what to do...*
* what to rely on...*
**[12:47] Miracle**
Tell me...
**[12:48] Miracle**
What path should I follow?
**[13:00] Miracle**
The path I should follow is...
**[13:14] [SONG] Song**
...won't be afraid anymore;
I'll transcend the reason I was born
**[13:15] Miracle**
Hey, AI-chan. I've worked so hard
**[13:18] Miracle**
because I wanted to stand on the stage of
the Virtual Grid Awards, like you did.
**[13:19] [SONG] Song**
I'll reach out toward tomorrow
and change the world
**[13:23] Miracle**
I still have that dream.
**[13:26] Miracle**
But... I have a new dream, too.
**[13:30] Miracle**
It's to follow the same path as my friends.
**[13:34] Miracle**
AI-chan...
**[13:35] Miracle**
You said you wanted to connect
with more people, right?
**[13:41] Miracle**
I understand that, AI-chan.
**[13:42] Miracle**
I want to connect with the
people who watch me...
**[13:46] Miracle**
And with my wonderful friends!
**[13:48] Miracle**
So before it's all over...
**[13:50] Quan**
Let's do a concert together.
**[13:55] Chris**
I feel the same.
**[13:57] Miracle**
Chris!
**[13:58] Chris**
I want to connect with you more!
**[14:02] Miracle**
Thank you!
**[14:05] Quan**
Let's start, then.
**[14:06] Miracle**
What are you doing?
**[14:08] Quan**
You were the one who said it...
**[14:09] Quan**
Do something big that'll shock everyone!
**[14:32] Chris**
It's beautiful...
**[14:37] Miracle**
Wow! That's incredible!
**[14:39] Noelle**
Miracle!
**[14:41] Noelle**
I know you said something big, but...
**[14:43] Riz**
This is a bit too big, isn't it?
**[14:46] Miracle**
Thanks for coming, everyone...
**[14:50] Miracle**
Please do a collab concert with me.
**[14:54] Noelle**
Are you sure? You might not
make it in the top 15.
**[14:58] Miracle**
But I still want to sing with the five of us.
**[15:01] Miracle**
Living in this moment with the four of you...
I think that's the path I should follow!
**[15:10] Noelle**
Oh, fine.
**[15:11] Riz**
I'll bet on you, then.
**[15:13] Chris**
I'm staying with you.
**[15:15] Quan**
PathTLive's first concert
with the five of us...
**[15:17] Quan**
Let's make it a success!
**[15:24] Riz**
Did you design these, Quan?
**[15:27] Chris**
They're wonderful.
**[15:28] Quan**
I was hoping we could wear
these and do something big.
**[15:33] Miracle**
Thank you! Thank you, everyone!
**[15:37] Noelle**
But time's almost up.
**[15:39] Noelle**
Whose lyrics for the song do we use?
**[15:43] Riz**
We fell apart once, but now
we're connected again!
**[15:48] Riz**
So...
**[15:50] Miracle**
Let's do it, everyone!
**[15:54] All**
Yeah!
**[15:57] Miracle's Friend 3**
Look, Miracle and her friends are doing
something just before time runs out!
**[16:03] Auris**
Show me the new possibilities you can only
find after connecting with someone...
**[16:12] [SONG] PathTLive**
SHINING-i, let's go and find it
**[16:16] [SONG] PathTLive**
In a world where eternal feelings connect
**[16:29] [SONG] Miracle**
The song I listened to all day when I was little
**[16:36] [SONG] Miracle**
If I just sing it as hard as I can, I'll stumble but...
**[16:43] [SONG] Riz**
No matter what, I want to be true to myself
**[16:50] [SONG] Noelle**
I know somewhere out there, there's a shining stage
**[16:55] [SONG] Quan**
I'll sign out from this boring level
**[17:02] [SONG] Chris**
I want to jump into the other world
**[17:11] [SONG] PathTLive**
Shining-i, the light our bonds gave us is what illuminates our dreams
**[17:18] [SONG] PathTLive**
Shining down so strongly on a me I've never seen
**[17:25] [SONG] PathTLive**
Shining-i, let's head for a tomorrow that will make your heart feel like it's on fire
**[17:33] [SONG] PathTLive**
It's okay, you're not alone
**[17:36] [SONG] PathTLive**
You'll find the person you want to be
**[17:49] [SONG] Miracle**
There's a signal that's started aching at the bottom of my heart
**[17:56] [SONG] Miracle**
Even if I look away, I can't stop my heart from pounding
**[18:03] [SONG] Riz**
I don't need the brake I've been clutching anymore
**[18:10] [SONG] Noelle**
Let's head faster and race towards our dreams
**[18:16] [SONG] Quan**
Sometimes I'll cry or get down, and I'm still not perfect
**[18:22] [SONG] Chris**
But I want to give hope to someone in pain
**[18:31] [SONG] PathTLive**
SHINING-i, let's go beyond where our feelings connect
**[18:39] [SONG] PathTLive**
A shooting star that crosses over many nights before finally reaching its destination
**[18:46] [SONG] PathTLive**
SHINING-i, if I can access it, I might get so excited my heart will melt
**[18:52] [SONG] PathTLive**
It's okay, have courage
**[18:56] [SONG] PathTLive**
Reach out your hand towards a bright morning
**[19:07] [SONG] Riz/Quan**
The feelings you felt in the corner of your small room
**[19:14] [SONG] Chris/Noelle/Miracle**
Will connect beyond the screen and give birth to dreams
**[19:21] [SONG] Riz**
Forever and ever
**[19:27] [SONG] PathTLive**
I picked up the scattered pieces of past, present, and future and used them to make a map
**[19:34] [SONG] PathTLive**
It's a story that's mine alone and I want to believe more strongly in it
**[19:41] [SONG] PathTLive**
Shining-i, the light our bonds gave us is what illuminates our dreams
**[19:48] [SONG] PathTLive**
Shining down so strongly on a me I've never seen
**[19:55] [SONG] PathTLive**
Shining-i, let's head for a tomorrow that will make your heart feel like it's on fire
**[20:02] [SONG] PathTLive**
It's okay, you're not alone
**[20:06] [SONG] PathTLive**
You'll find the person you want to be
**[20:12] [SONG] PathTLive**
You'll find a feeling that's eternal
**[20:38] Noelle**
That was PathTLive's first song...
**[20:42] Miracle**
Wow... all five of our lyrics
connected and brought us together!
**[20:48] Chris**
I was so moved. I was so moved!
**[20:51] Riz**
Maybe you're right...
**[20:54] Riz**
With the five of us...
**[20:57] Quan**
We might be able to create something
amazing, that nobody's ever seen!
**[21:01] Miracle**
PathTLive...
**[21:04] Miracle**
is the best!
**[21:09] Students**
Wow!
**[21:11] Students**
I was shivering!
**[21:12] Students**
But collab concerts don't
really help your rank, right?
**[21:15] Students**
What will happen?
**[21:23] Vanity**
* I will now announce the final rankings for the*
* Virtual Grid Awards ADEN Seed qualifiers.*
**[21:29] Riz**
Here it is!
**[21:30] Noelle**
What's Miracle's ranking?
**[21:34] Chris**
Miracle, Miracle...
**[21:41] Miracle**
I-I made it...
**[21:43] Chris**
You did it, Miracle.
**[21:45] Noelle**
I'm so glad!
**[21:46] Noelle**
I'm so glad...
**[21:48] Riz**
Why are you crying?
**[21:50] Noelle**
I'm not crying!
**[22:00] Quan**
Congratulations, Miracle.
**[22:02] Miracle**
Thank you! Thank you!
**[22:09] Ada**
So this is the possibility... Miracle...
**[22:15] Miracle**
I did it.. I did it!
**[22:19] Chris**
You did it!
**[22:36] [SONG] Song**
I became aware of my love
**[22:47] [SONG] Song**
Hey, I want you to tell me how you feel
**[22:52] [SONG] Song**
So I pull in the rope of truth
**[22:57] [SONG] Song**
The neon of the electronic world where
we intersect is burned into my brain
**[23:02] [SONG] Song**
Flashing by in the gaps between
boring days, a wisp of wind
**[23:08] [SONG] Song**
Caresses my cheek, and I pray that
**[23:13] [SONG] Song**
The unexpected arrow of my admiration
**[23:18] [SONG] Song**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[23:23] [SONG] Song**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying
**[23:26] [SONG] Song**
Baby baby, even though we're tiny
**[23:31] [SONG] Song**
I breathe so I can feel your voice, your form
**[23:37] [SONG] Song**
Maybe maybe, in just a
little corner of the world
**[23:41] [SONG] Song**
If we can overcome thousands of
nights and connect with each other
**[23:47] [SONG] Song**
I am waiting for... forever

~Prelude to Harsh Battle~
**[02:14] Miracle**
Thank you so much!
**[02:17] Noelle**
I-I get it!
**[02:18] Riz**
We all made it through the qualifiers.
**[02:21] Riz**
Now we can all aim for the VGAs together!
**[02:25] Noelle**
Yeah!
**[02:25] Chris**
Let's aim.
**[02:26] Noelle**
Yeah... let's.
**[02:30] Miracle**
I just can't believe it!
**[02:33] Miracle**
So, who got the most votes?
**[02:39] Riz**
They're all incredible artists!
**[02:41] Riz**
They take their work really seriously and
have something they believe in strongly.
**[02:46] Riz**
These girls, Ellie, Sarah,
Halle, Jesse, and Niska
**[02:51] Riz**
are the top unit at
ADEN Academy Sigma, BRT5.
**[02:55] Miracle**
They're a group of five, like us?
**[02:58] Riz**
This is them.
**[02:59] Miracle**
Wow, they look so cool!
**[03:02] Noelle**
Don't get so impressed!
**[03:04] Noelle**
These are the kinds of people
you'll be competing against!
**[03:07] Miracle**
Oh, right!
**[03:09] Miracle**
So someday...
**[03:15] Chris**
Are you imagining something weird?
**[03:19] Miracle**
What's wrong, Quan?
**[03:22] Quan**
I don't think I can stay like this...
**[03:25] Miracle**
What are you talking about?
You're super-amazing!
**[03:28] Miracle**
You went straight to the top 15!
**[03:30] Quan**
B-But...
**[03:31] Miracle**
Remember how it went for me?
**[03:34] Miracle**
I made a huge mess of everything and
only barely made it to 14th place!
***SIGN*** I did a perfect copy of Kizuna AI's LINX
***SIGN*** I did a perfect copy of the qualifiers song
(Chris's Version)
**[03:39] Miracle**
Compared to me, you're doing great!
**[03:42] Noelle**
That's right.
**[03:44] Riz**
She did make a mess of everything.
**[03:45] Miracle**
You could stick up for me a little!
**[03:47] Miracle**
Right, Chris?
**[03:49] Chris**
It's okay to make a mess of everything!
**[03:51] Chris**
You're human.
**[03:52] Miracle**
Thank you!
**[03:53] Miracle**
See? You're amazing, Quan!
**[03:56] Miracle**
So have confidence!
**[03:58] Quan**
R-Right...
**[03:59] Miracle**
Hey, the rules for the main event are
being announced tomorrow, right?
**[04:03] Riz**
Yes. The principal will announce them
to the fifteen qualifiers.
**[04:08] Chris**
I wonder what we'll be
doing for the main event.
**[04:10] Miracle**
Right? I can't wait to find out!
**[04:12] Miracle**
Let's all do our best!
**[04:14] Noelle**
Yes.
**[04:15] Riz**
I won't lose!
**[04:16] Noelle**
I'll do my best!
**[04:17] Miracle**
Okay, let's get ourselves fired up again!
**[04:20] Miracle**
We're all going to the VGAs together!
**[04:24] Miracle**
Hip-hip-hooray!
**[04:28] Miracle**
Do it with me!
**[04:32] Noelle**
Sorry!
**[04:37] Miracle**
*It's finally happening tomorrow.*
**[04:43] Miracle**
*Watch me, AI-chan!*
**[04:50] (Flashback) Miracle**
What are you talking about?
You're super-amazing!
**[04:53] Quan**
*Miracle was being nice, but...*
**[05:03] Miracle**
Everybody looks really amazing!
**[05:05] Noelle**
Stop staring at everyone. It's bad manners.
**[05:09] Miracle**
There's BRT5!
**[05:12] Noelle**
Hey!
**[05:20] Auris**
*Hello, everyone.*
**[05:23] Auris**
* I will now explain the*
* rules for the main event.*
**[05:25] Miracle**
Here it is!
**[05:27] Auris**
*There are ADEN Academies all over the world.*
**[05:30] Auris**
* And the 15 of you have gathered here from*
* ADENs Theta, Iota, Lambda, Sigma, and Omega.*
**[05:39] Auris**
* And for the main event,*
* you will be having...*
**[05:43] Auris**
*A Unit Battle!*
**[05:45] Miracle**
A Unit Battle?
**[05:47] Sofia**
Huh. Sounds fun.
**[05:49] Auris**
* You're free to form your unit with anyone,*
* and with as many members as you like.*
**[05:54] Auris**
*The units will compete in the main event,*
**[05:58] Auris**
* and whichever wins will earn the chance*
* to enter the Virtual Grid Awards.*
**[06:03] Auris**
*You have fifteen days to register your units.*
**[06:07] Auris**
* Over the next fifteen days, I want you to*
* collab with the other artists here,*
**[06:11] Auris**
*and see who you're most compatible with.*
**[06:14] Auris**
* Then form the strongest unit to get*
* ready for the main event battle!*
**[06:19] Auris**
*Now, good luck!*
**[06:23] Noelle**
That was a little surprising.
**[06:25] Riz**
Yeah, I was sure it would be a solo thing.
**[06:28] Chris**
And there's fifteen days until the battle.
**[06:30] Miracle**
Here it is!
**[06:32] Noelle**
Quiet down!
**[06:33] Chris**
Here what is?
**[06:35] Miracle**
If it's a unit battle, we can
just enter as PathTLive!
**[06:38] Miracle**
That'll give us over two weeks to practice!
**[06:40] Miracle**
This is our chance to win!
**[06:43] Miracle**
So here it is!
**[06:44] Noelle**
Yes, you're right.
**[06:47] Chris**
I agree with Miracle.
**[06:48] Riz**
No problems here.
**[06:52] Miracle**
You too, right Quan?
**[06:54] Quan**
Y-Yeah.
**[06:56] Sofia**
So it's a unit battle.
**[06:59] Sofia**
Our principal has some funny ideas, huh?
**[07:03] Chris**
Who are you?
**[07:05] Riz**
She placed second in the qualifiers.
**[07:07] Sofia**
I'm Sofia. Nice to meet you.
**[07:08] Signs**
Qualifier Ranking 2nd Place
**[07:12] Noelle**
Second...
**[07:13] Sofia**
You're Chris, right?
**[07:16] Sofia**
You look... interesting.
**[07:20] Sofia**
I don't know how to say it...
**[07:21] Sofia**
THere's something special about
you that no other artist has.
**[07:26] Sofia**
Hey, would you like...
**[07:32] Sofia**
You don't want to that badly?
**[07:34] Sofia**
I haven't even said anything!
**[07:37] Miracle**
Calm down, calm down!
**[07:39] Sofia**
And just who are you?
**[07:42] Miracle**
Sorry. She scared you, huh?
**[07:45] Sofia**
Whatever.
**[07:47] Sofia**
Bye, Chris.
**[07:52] Miracle**
What's wrong?
**[07:54] Chris**
She's dangerous.
**[07:55] Miracle**
You mean that girl just now? Why?
**[07:58] Chris**
I don't know.
**[08:00] Jua**
It's PathTLive!
**[08:01] Miracle**
Wow, that scared me!
**[08:03] Jua**
I saw your concert upload!
**[08:05] Jua**
You were *so* cool!
**[08:06] Riz**
You're...
**[08:07] Jua**
I'm Jua! Nice to meet you!
**[08:09] Jua**
Qualifier Ranking 5th Place
**[08:12] Jua**
Hey, are the five of you entering as PathTLive?
**[08:16] Miracle**
Yeah, that's the plan.
**[08:18] Jua**
Cool!
**[08:19] Jua**
I think that's a great idea, but why not
try teaming up with some other artists?
**[08:24] Jua**
Me, for instance!
**[08:27] Jua**
I think you and I would
get along great, Miracle!
**[08:31] Jua**
So why don't we try a collab!
**[08:33] Miracle**
But...
**[08:34] Riz**
No way.
**[08:35] Noelle**
Miracle would never go
for something like that.
**[08:38] Miracle**
Hm, I'm not sure!
**[08:39] Both**
Hey!
**[08:40] Miracle**
Well, it makes you really happy
when somebody needs you, right?
**[08:45] Quan**
*When someone needs you...*
**[08:47] Noelle**
You traitor! Akechi Mirahide!
**[08:50] Riz**
Et tu, Miratus?
**[08:52] Chris**
Fujiko Mira.
**[08:53] Miracle**
Chris-chan!
**[08:57] Jua**
PathTLive is really the best!
**[09:00] Miracle**
Jua...
**[09:01] Miracle**
I appreciate it, but I can't imagine
being with anybody but PathTLive!
**[09:06] Jua**
Okay, call me if you ever change your mind!
**[09:08] Jua**
I'm a fan of PathTLive!
**[09:16] Jua**
Hey!
**[09:18] Jua**
Thea, who are you collabing with?
**[09:24] Riz**
I see.
**[09:25] Riz**
The battle's already started, huh?
**[09:28] Miracle**
What do you mean?
**[09:31] Riz**
Everybody's quietly trying to
recruit others for collabs,
**[09:35] Riz**
or learn about their opponents.
**[09:38] Noelle**
We'll have to wait and see
what everyone does next.
**[09:44] Miracle**
But it doesn't matter, 'cause we're
all staying with PathTLive, right?
**[09:48] Noelle**
Okay, let's ditch Miracle and
go have a strategy meeting.
**[09:52] Chris**
Let's.
**[09:53] Riz**
I want to look at the data
for the other artists, too.
**[09:56] Miracle**
Guys! It was a joke!
**[10:00] Miracle**
Quan, you understand, right?
**[10:02] Miracle**
Right?
**[10:04] Quan**
Yeah...
**[10:09] Auris**
Bonds...
**[10:10] Auris**
If they're strong enough,
then just possibly...
**[10:16] Miracle**
Riz, what do you do at a strategy meeting?
**[10:19] Riz**
Think of a way to win the main event.
**[10:22] Miracle**
I've already found one, actually.
**[10:25] Noelle**
No way!
**[10:26] Quan**
What way is that?
**[10:29] Miracle**
We just make a unit of fifteen people,
and then we all get to go to the VGAs!
**[10:32] Noelle**
Our goal is to express the music we
have as best we can, in our own way.
**[10:38] Noelle**
Whether we get to the VGAs
or not is just a result of that.
**[10:41] Miracle**
Oh, yeah.
**[10:43] Noelle**
I do get why you want to go, though.
**[10:47] Noelle**
That's why we're having this meeting.
**[10:49] Riz**
Right.
**[10:50] Riz**
So, let's start by predicting
who'll pair up with who.
**[10:55] Chris**
If we know who's in what unit,
we can plan how to beat them.
**[11:00] Miracle**
But ten of the fifteen are
PathTLive and BRT5, right?
**[11:05] Miracle**
So it's just a question of who the
other five will team up with, right?
**[11:08] Noelle**
You may be right, yeah.
**[11:10] Miracle**
Will the five of them make their own unit?
**[11:11] Riz**
They're all really different artists.
**[11:14] Riz**
I can't see them making music together.
**[11:17] Miracle**
Oh, that Jua girl she was talking
to the one named Ximena.
**[11:22] Miracle**
Maybe the two of them will pair up!
**[11:24] Noelle**
But she was willing to try and recruit you,
**[11:27] Noelle**
which means she might try to
recruit someone from BRT5!
**[11:30] Miracle**
True!
**[11:31] Riz**
Look at this!
***SIGN*** Tomorrow's Light
**[11:33] Noelle**
A concert video?
**[11:35] Riz**
We can be almost certain that the
five of them will enter as BRT5.
**[11:39] Miracle**
Let's take a look.
**[11:40] Chris**
Gotta investigate.
**[11:41] Noelle**
Let's see what they've got.
***SIGN*** Tomorrow's Light
**[11:45] Riz**
Okay, here goes.
**[13:19] Miracle**
W-Wow!
**[13:21] Noelle**
I guess we should've expected that.
**[13:23] Chris**
All five of them were really good.
**[13:26] Riz**
They're each expressing
what makes them unique,
**[13:28] Riz**
while it meshes together at a high level.
**[13:31] Quan**
*I finally understand.*
**[13:35] Riz**
This is...
**[13:36] Miracle**
Gonna be a lot of fun, right?
**[13:39] Miracle**
We get to see guys at this level up
close during the main event, right?
**[13:43] Miracle**
I'm excited already!
**[13:45] Noelle**
Miracle, we're not going to see a concert.
**[13:48] Miracle**
Of course not!
**[13:49] Miracle**
I'm looking forward to it...
**[13:51] Miracle**
because we'll win!
**[13:54] Miracle**
BRT5 is strong, yeah.
**[13:56] Miracle**
The old me could never win.
**[13:59] Miracle**
But... we can win!
**[14:03] Quan**
Miracle...
**[14:05] Miracle**
With the five of us together,
we're invincible!
**[14:07] Miracle**
That's how I felt when we sang!
**[14:09] Miracle**
So no matter who we're up against,
we'll win for sure!
**[14:16] Noelle**
Once in a while, you say something smart.
**[14:18] Riz**
Yeah, I think with the
five of us, we can win.
**[14:22] Chris**
I'm sure we can.
**[14:23] Miracle**
Right?
**[14:24] Miracle**
What do you think, Quan?
**[14:27] Miracle**
Quan...
**[14:28] Quan**
I...
**[14:30] Quan**
I want to support Miracle,
for accepting me for who I am.
**[14:34] Quan**
That's why I took the first step
towards being a virtual artist.
**[14:38] Quan**
That was the first time I put my own
feelings into the lyrics during a performance.
**[14:43] Quan**
I really felt like maybe it was fun to sing,
that maybe I wanted to be a virtual artist!
**[14:49] Quan**
And so I came out of my shell...
**[14:54] Quan**
After I took this form...
**[14:56] Quan**
and did a performance under the name
PathTLive that you came up with...
**[15:00] Quan**
I realized that we can make something
really powerful together.
**[15:04] Miracle**
That's right.
**[15:05] Quan**
*But...*
**[15:06] Quan**
*I finally understand.*
**[15:07] Quan**
*I...*
**[15:09] Quan**
*I didn't want to hold everyone back.*
**[15:13] Quan**
*Because I love them so much.*
**[15:15] Miracle**
What's wrong?
**[15:26] [SONG] Song SHININGi**
SHINING-i, let's go and find it
**[15:30] [SONG] Song SHININGi**
In a world where eternal feelings connect
**[15:42] [SONG] Song SHININGi**
The song I listened to
all day when I was little
**[15:49] [SONG] Song SHININGi**
If I just sing it as hard as
I can, I'll stumble but...
**[15:56] [SONG] Song SHININGi**
No matter what, I want to be true to myself
**[16:03] [SONG] Song SHININGi**
I know somewhere out there,
there's a shining stage
**[16:07] [SONG] Song SHININGi**
*I know somewhere out there,
there's a shining stage*
**[16:07] Sarah**
There's potential there.
**[16:09] [SONG] Song SHININGi**
*I'll sign out from this boring level*
**[16:10] Jessie**
But there's no denying it's still rough.
**[16:13] Sarah**
This girl's holding them back.
**[16:16] Halle**
There's definitely something there, though.
**[16:16] [SONG] Song SHININGi**
*I want to jump into the other world*
**[16:19] Ellie**
She's the dark horse, yeah.
**[16:21] Ellie**
But I think she has the most
potential of any of them.
**[16:24] Jessie**
Sure you're not just being nice?
**[16:25] [SONG] Song SHININGi**
*SHINING-i, the light our bonds gave us—*
**[16:26] Sarah**
It's important to be able
to tell the difference.
**[16:30] Miracle**
Anyway, if PathTLive is going
to win the main event,
**[16:33] Miracle**
we need more experience!
**[16:35] Miracle**
So let's do a concert—
**[16:37] Quan**
Wait.
**[16:39] Quan**
I'm sure that if I stay in PathTLive,
I won't get better.
**[16:44] Miracle**
Why?
**[16:45] Quan**
Because I'm weak.
**[16:48] Quan**
If I stay with you,
I'll just let you do all the work.
**[16:50] Quan**
And I can't do that!
**[16:52] Noelle**
Quan...
**[16:54] Quan**
I want to get better and
repay the four of you!
**[16:58] Miracle**
You're worrying too much!
**[17:00] Noelle**
I understand what she's saying.
**[17:02] Miracle**
You, too?!
**[17:03] Noelle**
I think PathTLive is invincible as well.
**[17:06] Miracle**
Then...
**[17:07] Noelle**
But when I saw BRT5's video,
**[17:11] Noelle**
I realized that it might be
better to gain more experience.
**[17:16] Miracle**
Well...
**[17:18] Noelle**
And I think one way to do that might
be collabing with other artists.
**[17:23] Riz**
I agree, I think.
**[17:26] Miracle**
You too, Riz?
**[17:27] Riz**
That might be the optimal answer
for winning the main event!
**[17:31] Miracle**
What about you, Chris?
**[17:33] Chris**
I want to stay with you, Miracle.
**[17:34] Miracle**
Right?
**[17:36] Chris**
But...
**[17:37] Chris**
I want to find my own possibilities.
**[17:40] Miracle**
What's wrong, everyone?
**[17:42] Miracle**
Let's do PathTLive!
**[17:44] Quan**
I want to connect more...
**[17:48] Quan**
Miracle... Chris... Noelle... Riz...
**[17:52] Quan**
By connecting with PathTLive, my future
as a virtual artist started to shine.
**[17:59] Quan**
I want to touch that light more.
**[18:02] Miracle**
That's right!
**[18:03] Quan**
I want to be in the Virtual
Grid Awards with everyone!
**[18:08] Quan**
So...
**[18:08] Miracle**
Right? So...
**[18:11] Quan**
Let me think a little more.
**[18:12] Miracle**
Gwah!
**[18:14] Riz**
Don't worry.
**[18:15] Riz**
We're just going to get a little
more experience. That's all.
**[18:19] Miracle**
Fine!
**[18:21] Miracle**
Once you've collabed with the others,
come back and do PathTLive, okay?
**[18:24] ALL**
Right.
**[18:25] Quan**
*I'm going to do what I can right now, too.*
**[18:33] Quan**
*But where do I start?*
**[18:37] Sarah**
You're Quan?
**[18:39] Quan**
B-BRT5?
**[18:47] Sarah**
I'll be brief, Quan.
**[18:50] Sarah**
Join BRT5.
**[18:54] Halle**
She froze!
**[18:55] Ellie**
Sorry, that wasn't a good way to say it.
**[18:58] Ellie**
We want you to join BRT5
as our newest member.
**[19:03] Quan**
Oh... Huh?
**[19:05] Halle**
She froze again!
**[19:07] Halle**
From now on, you're Frozen Quan!
**[19:09] Halle**
Don't give her a weird nickname.
**[19:11] Jessie**
You don't have to, if you don't want to.
**[19:12] Sarah**
You're free to pick whichever team you like.
**[19:22] Niska**
So that's who they went after, huh?
**[19:24] Niska**
It's true... she has enormous
potential as a virtual artist.
**[19:29] Niska**
But the one who brought
that potential out was...

It's time for Riz-Chri Labs!

Today we'll be investigating the mysteries
you're all dying to know about.

Chris-kun, what's our theme for today?
**[21:21] Chris**
Here it is, Professor.
**[21:21] Chris**
Internet Sea Slug
**[21:23] Riz**
No, no.
**[21:26] Riz**
That's next week's.
**[21:28] Chris**
It's this!
**[21:30] Riz**
BRT5!
**[21:31] Riz**
You all know them as the five-member
virtual artist unit from ADEN Sigma.
**[21:36] Riz**
They're so good that four of them made it into
the top ten of the ADEN Seed qualifiers!
**[21:40] Chris**
Professor!
**[21:41] Riz**
What is it, Chris-kun?
**[21:42] Chris**
Why does this Niska person
have a slightly lower rank?
**[21:46] Riz**
Good question!
**[21:48] Riz**
She's BRT5's leader.
**[21:50] Riz**
The reason she only got twelvth place in the
qualifiers might be that she still wasn't serious...
**[21:54] Riz**
Or perhaps there was another reason?
**[21:57] Riz**
There are lots of theories online.
**[22:00] Chris**
Another reason?
**[22:02] Chris**
Food poisoning!
**[22:03] Riz**
No.
**[22:04] Riz**
Next up is Jessie!
**[22:06] Riz**
She was born into a family of opera
singers, and has perfect pitch.
**[22:10] Riz**
She's also the best singer in the group!
**[22:13] Chris**
Professor.
**[22:14] Riz**
What is it, Chris-kun?
**[22:16] Chris**
"Opera" means "work" or "labor" in Italian.
**[22:19] Riz**
Why did you suddenly decide
to share that trivia?
**[22:22] Riz**
Next is Ellie, the unit's center.
**[22:26] Riz**
But she's got an easygoing personality and
usually acts like the group's mother, they say.
**[22:31] Chris**
Pwofesswah.
**[22:32] Riz**
Professor!
**[22:33] Chris**
For PathTLive, you're our mother.
**[22:38] Riz**
No way! Is that how you see me?
**[22:40] Riz**
Next is Sarah!
**[22:42] Riz**
She can play any kind of instrument,
write lyrics, and is an amazing athlete!
**[22:47] Riz**
A lot of places besides ADEN
wanted to recruit her!
**[22:51] Chris**
Powfessah.
**[22:51] Riz**
Professor.
**[22:52] Chris**
Recruit her to play baseball?
**[22:55] Riz**
Nope!
**[22:56] Chris**
Last is Halle!
**[22:57] Chris**
She's the youngest member,
and the group's little sister.
**[23:00] Chris**
But she's the tallest,
and also the biggest eater!
**[23:03] Chris**
She's the type who can eat and not get fat.
**[23:06] Riz**
Well, Chris-kun? What do
you think about BRT5?
**[23:09] Chris**
They all have something
that makes them unique,
**[23:13] Chris**
but right now, I think they're
much stronger than PathTLive.
**[23:17] Riz**
Yeah. We'll have to come up with some kind
of plan to beat them in the main event.
**[23:23] Chris**
Yes, Professor.
**[23:24] Riz**
Now Chris-kun, please announce

*Fifteen artists will form units and perform.*
**[00:15] Quan**
* Miracle was all set to participate*
* as PathTLive, but...*
**[00:19] Quan**
*What is this feeling?*
**[00:21] Quan**
* And then the other participants*
* came to talk to us...*
**[00:25] (Flashback) Sofia**
You look... interesting.
**[00:28] (Flashback) Jua**
I think you and I would

*BRT5, especially, was amazing.*

**[02:42] Cafeteria Vanity**
One moment, please.
**[02:45] Vanity**
You've been snacking a
lot lately, Miracle-san.
**[02:50] Vanity**
Looking at this past week's data,
**[02:52] Vanity**
you've been eating an average
of two snacks a day.
**[02:55] Vanity**
You're exceeding your recommended
maximum calorie limit almost every day.
**[03:00] Miracle**
It's fine! It's fine!
**[03:02] Miracle**
I've got a feeling I'll get a
heart-shaped octopus today!
**[03:05] Vanity**
A virtual artist needs to pay
careful attention to their health.
**[03:11] Vanity**
That's what you said when you assigned
me to help you with your healthcare.
**[03:15] Miracle**
Very true!
**[03:17] Miracle**
But now I need to start working even
harder to prep for the main event!
**[03:20] Miracle**
So pretend you didn't see it!
**[03:24] Cafeteria Vanity**
Here you go!
**[03:26] Miracle**
Thanks!
**[03:29] Miracle**
I know!

Hey, there!

Oh, no!

*Miracle...*
**[03:44] Miracle**
I'm sorry.
**[03:45] Miracle**
I didn't think you'd get that surprised.
**[03:49] Quan**
No, it's fine.
**[03:54] Quan**
Anyway, why don't you sit down?
**[03:56] Miracle**
O-Okay.

Here you go.

**[04:09] Miracle**
It makes me feel all warm,
like I'm in a hot spring!
**[04:15] Quan**
You don't change, do you?
**[04:19] Miracle**
Oh, right!
**[04:20] Miracle**
I brought some fortune takoyaki!
**[04:24] Miracle**
Have some!
**[04:26] Quan**
Thanks.
**[04:27] Miracle**
I've got a feeling we're gonna find
a heart-shaped octopus today!
**[04:31] Quan**
Oh, isn't eating those supposed to...
**[04:33] Miracle**
Yes, something lucky will happen to you!
**[04:36] Miracle**
I feel like right now, I've got a mysterious
power that's drawing that stuff to me.
**[04:40] Miracle**
I mean, I did make it through
the qualifiers for the VGAs!
**[04:44] Quan**
I see. Congratulations.
**[04:46] Miracle**
Thank you!
**[04:49] Miracle**
It was really close, though.
**[04:53] Quan**
You made it. That's all that matters.
**[04:55] Miracle**
Right?
**[04:57] Miracle**
Actually, it doesn't bother me that much.
**[05:00] Miracle**
Oh, and what's more,
**[05:02] Miracle**
I get to form a unit and perform
with other girls who qualified!
**[05:08] Quan**
I see.
**[05:09] Miracle**
All of the qualifiers are
really amazing artists!
**[05:13] Miracle**
I saw a video by this group named BRT5!
**[05:17] Miracle**
And every single one of them
gave a perfect performance!
**[05:20] Miracle**
I was so impressed!
**[05:22] Quan**
*Yeah, it was a really amazing performance.*
**[05:26] Miracle**
Anyway, so when I saw it, I felt even more
strongly that I didn't want to lose to them!
**[05:30] Miracle**
That I wanted to win with the unit
I formed with everyone, PathTLive!
**[05:38] Miracle**
Is something wrong?
**[05:40] Quan**
No... You're having fun, huh? I can tell.
**[05:46] Miracle**
I am!
**[05:48] Quan**
I'll take a takoyaki.
**[05:56] Quan**
Huh? Is this...
**[05:59] Miracle**
Is it the heart-shaped octopus?
**[06:01] Quan**
I think so!
**[06:03] Miracle**
Hooray!
**[06:05] Miracle**
I am lucky!
**[06:07] Quan**
I'm the one who ate it. But you're happy?
**[06:09] Miracle**
Of course!
**[06:11] Miracle**
When someone else is happy, so am I!
**[06:14] Miracle**
So if somebody else is lucky, so am I!
**[06:18] Quan**
*That's right.*
**[06:20] Quan**
*That's who Miracle is.*
**[06:22] Miracle**
I'll have one, too!
**[06:23] Miracle**
There might be a miraculous
second heart-shaped takoyaki!
**[06:29] Quan**
I just remembered I have somewhere to be.
**[06:32] Miracle**
I see.
**[06:33] Miracle**
Sorry for just showing up like this.
**[06:36] Quan**
No. I'm glad we got to talk.
**[06:39] Miracle**
Tell me if something lucky happens.
**[06:42] Quan**
I will.
**[06:45] Miracle**
Okay, I'll be going!
**[06:48] Miracle**
Bye!
**[06:49] Quan**
Yeah, bye.
**[06:54] Quan**
*I can't stay like this.*
**[06:59] Quan**
* I need to be someone who can share*
* in the fun Miracle is having.*
**[07:06] Noelle**
You're weirding me out.
**[07:08] Noelle**
What's wrong, Miracle?
**[07:10] Miracle**
I sent Quan a message to come.
**[07:12] Miracle**
But she hasn't answered me!
**[07:14] Noelle**
Well, she's got their
own life to live, right?
**[07:18] Noelle**
Maybe she's on a date?
**[07:20] Miracle**
A date!
**[07:22] Miracle**
How sweet!
**[07:24] Miracle**
And yet bitter!
**[07:26] Miracle**
And also salty, sour, and umami, too!
**[07:32] Chris**
What flavor is that?
**[07:33] Riz**
Just the word "date" sets
her off like that, huh?
**[07:37] Noelle**
Ignore her.
**[07:40] Miracle**
Maybe it's Quan!
**[07:43] Miracle**
Aww, it isn't.
**[07:44] Sign**
BRT5
Live Performance
**[07:45] Chris**
BRT5 is doing a performance tomorrow.
**[07:49] Riz**
So the five of them did form a unit.
**[07:52] Noelle**
I wonder what the concert will be like.
**[07:54] Noelle**
I'm excited to see.
**[07:56] Miracle**
Right? I can't wait!
**[07:58] Miracle**
Let's all watch it together.
**[08:00] Noelle**
I'm in. What about you guys?
**[08:02] Riz**
Sure.
**[08:02] Chris**
Me, too!
**[08:03] Miracle**
Yay!
**[08:05] Miracle**
Let's meet here at the
same time tomorrow!
**[08:21] Miracle**
It's almost time!
**[08:23] Riz**
Miracle, your head's in the way.
**[08:25] Noelle**
I can't see the screen!
**[08:38] [SONG] Song**
All the songs we sing together
**[08:43] [SONG] Song**
are a beacon that awakens the future
**[08:48] [SONG] Song**
Loneliness walks on the sea, like a spirit
**[08:53] [SONG] Song**
Be noble, and never forget your dreams
**[08:57] [SONG] Song**
If we hold up our oars high
as we dive into the waves
**[09:07] [SONG] Song**
The deep echoes won't be able to hide
**[09:15] [SONG] Song**
the path we follow, or our passion
**[09:18] [SONG] Song**
The beacon of tomorrow will start to shine
**[09:24] [SONG] Song**
Let our voices sound forever
**[09:28] [SONG] Song**
Destroy the storm and aim for eternity
**[09:33] [SONG] Song**
Give us blessings
**[09:36] [SONG] Song**
Let our songs ripple across the waves
**[09:38] [SONG] Song**
Stronger and stronger
**[09:41] [SONG] Song**
Shaking the air and guiding in the morning
**[09:45] [SONG] Song**
The dawn rising over the
sea paints a picture of us
**[09:50] [SONG] Song**
and we entrust our fleeting emotions
**[09:54] [SONG] Song**
to the vast blue
**[10:00] Ellie**
BRT5 is the strongest unit, and now we've
got the strongest member joining us!
**[10:06] Ellie**
Quan!
**[10:09] Quan**
I'm Quan with BRT5!
**[10:11] Quan**
I'm very glad to be here!
**[10:22] Miracle**
Quan...
**[10:23] Chris**
Miracle, are you okay?
**[10:25] Miracle**
Why would she... Why?
**[10:28] Riz**
Calm down!
**[10:30] Riz**
I'm sure it's related to what she said before,
**[10:31] Riz**
about wanting to get more practice!
**[10:34] Miracle**
But just now she said, "Quan with BRT5!"
**[10:37] Riz**
You'll have to ask her what that means!
**[10:41] Miracle**
Why...
**[10:44] Miracle**
I have to go see Quan.
**[10:48] Miracle**
I'm going to go see her and talk to her.
**[10:55] Miracle**
*Where do I go?*
**[10:57] Miracle**
*How can I find her?*
**[10:59] Miracle**
*At times like this...*
**[11:09] Miracle**
Um... can we talk?
**[11:11] Quan**
Come with me.
**[11:23] Quan**
There's something I want to tell you.
**[11:25] Quan**
So I want you to come with me.
**[11:47] Miracle**
Quan?
**[11:48] Quan**
Miracle, I wanted you to know...
**[11:51] Quan**
About me, Quan.
**[11:55] Miracle**
You're Quan?
**[11:59] Quan**
Yeah.
**[12:01] Quan**
Let me be the one to tell you.
**[12:05] Quan**
I'm joining BRT5!
**[12:08] Quan**
I want to see how far I can go in BRT5!
**[12:17] Quan**
At first, I had fun just
performing with everyone.
**[12:22] Quan**
I was so happy that you all
accepted me for who I am.
**[12:26] Quan**
You were the light that illuminated me.
**[12:30] Quan**
But I don't think I can stay like this.
**[12:35] Quan**
I want to be able to walk by your side.
**[12:38] Quan**
And for that, I can't just have other
people shine their light on me.
**[12:42] Quan**
I have to shine myself, I think.
**[12:48] Quan**
Just like how every member of BRT5
shines with their own color...
**[12:52] Quan**
I want to find my own light!
**[12:55] Miracle**
*You're Quan...*
**[12:57] Miracle**
*And Quan's going to BRT5...*
**[12:59] Miracle**
So much is happening that
I just don't understand anymore!
**[13:03] Quan**
Miracle!
**[13:05] Miracle**
Um... I'm uh...
**[13:09] Miracle**
I'm sorry!
**[13:18] Miracle**
*Quan...*
**[13:21] Miracle**
*We can't be together anymore?*
**[13:27] Niska**
That girl...
**[13:32] [SONG] Song**
If you could be reincarnated,
what kind of you would you like to be?
**[13:38] [SONG] Song**
If that's what you wish for,
I'll cast a little spell
**[13:44] [SONG] Song**
If I were—
**[13:44] Miracle**
AI-chan...
**[13:50] Kizuna AI**
A bond can't be broken that easily.
**[13:52] Kizuna AI**
'Cause the path continues onward.
**[13:55] Miracle**
The path continues?
**[14:06] Miracle**
AI-chan, what does
"the path continues" mean?
**[14:30] Miracle**
It's beautiful.
**[14:32] Miracle**
But... where am I?
**[14:33] Niska**
I've been waiting for you, Miracle.
**[14:36] Miracle**
Waiting for me?
**[14:37] Miracle**
Who are you?
**[14:39] Niska**
I'm Niska.
**[14:40] Niska**
You once told me you liked
my avatar, didn't you?
**[14:44] Niska**
Vanity-sensei told me.
**[14:47] Miracle**
Your avatar?
**[14:48] (Flashback) Miracle**
This avatar is amazing...
**[14:51] (Flashback) Miracle**
It's cool.
**[14:53] (Flashback) Miracle**
But that's not all...
**[14:55] (Flashback) Miracle**
It has this feeling of solitude about it...
**[14:59] Miracle**
Oh, I saw you in the Designer course!
**[15:05] Miracle**
Then you drew this?
**[15:07] Niska**
Yup.
**[15:07] Miracle**
Why did you give this to me?
**[15:09] Niska**
It's a map.
**[15:10] Niska**
You looked lost.
**[15:12] Miracle**
*What's with this person?*
**[15:17] Niska**
What?
**[15:19] Miracle**
Oh, you're with BRT5!
**[15:21] Niska**
Yeah.
**[15:22] Niska**
Former BRT5, actually.
**[15:24] Miracle**
Former?
**[15:26] Niska**
I left.
**[15:28] Niska**
They've gotten a new member already, though.
**[15:32] Niska**
What was her name?
**[15:34] Miracle**
Quan.
**[15:36] Niska**
Yes, that's right.
**[15:37] Niska**
Her.
**[15:41] Niska**
Would you like to talk about it?
**[15:45] Niska**
I see a big rain cloud over your head.
**[15:48] Niska**
Is that Quan person the reason?
**[15:55] Miracle**
I thought Quan would stay
with PathTLive forever.
**[16:00] Miracle**
But now she's with BRT5.
**[16:05] Miracle**
Quan showed me everything,
**[16:07] Miracle**
including what she looked
like in the real world.
**[16:09] Miracle**
But so much happened at once
that I just got overwhelmed.
**[16:14] Miracle**
I couldn't take it and I ran.
**[16:17] Niska**
Maybe she's struggling
right now as best she can.
**[16:22] Niska**
With the gap between her ideals and reality,
**[16:24] Niska**
and her desire to stay with PathTLive
**[16:26] Niska**
and her feeling that she
can't stay who she is.
**[16:29] Miracle**
I see.
**[16:32] Miracle**
Quan was struggling and
suffering this whole time...
**[16:37] Miracle**
I was right next to her,
and I didn't realize...
**[16:42] Niska**
*This girl...*
**[16:43] Miracle**
Because it was fun. Because I was happy...
**[16:46] Miracle**
I thought Quan felt the same way.
**[16:48] Miracle**
I wasn't even thinking about her!
**[16:51] Miracle**
She said she wanted to see how
far she could go with BRT5.
**[16:57] Miracle**
When she wanted to get better as an artist,
she didn't choose to do it with me.
**[17:02] Miracle**
And that feels lousy.
**[17:04] Niska**
You're not blaming her.
You're trying to understand her.
**[17:09] Niska**
I'm jealous.
**[17:11] Miracle**
I'm no good at all.
**[17:12] Miracle**
I didn't understand her at all.
**[17:15] Niska**
It's okay.
**[17:17] Niska**
Even if you didn't understand her,
**[17:20] Niska**
even if there was a misunderstanding,
**[17:21] Niska**
as long as you try to
understand the other person,
**[17:24] Niska**
your path continues onwards.
**[17:27] Miracle**
AI-chan...
**[17:29] Miracle**
Oh, so that's it.
**[17:32] Miracle**
But it was her decision, right?
**[17:35] Miracle**
Yeah. So I won't complain!
**[17:38] Niska**
I see.
**[17:39] Miracle**
But it makes me so sad and frustrated!
**[17:43] Miracle**
I'm so stupid! Stupid! Stupid!
**[17:45] Niska**
It soudns like your rain clouds
have lifted, then.
**[17:50] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[17:52] Miracle**
I've got a lot to think about, though.
**[17:54] Niska**
I hope a sunny day comes soon, though.
**[17:56] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[17:57] Miracle**
If I'd stayed by myself, I would've
kept getting more and more depressed.
**[18:02] Miracle**
Thanks, Niska!
**[18:06] Niska**
You're welcome.
**[18:08] Niska**
Come back any time if you feel lost, miss.
**[18:17] Miracle**
And so you see, Quan joined
BRT5 to improve her skills!
**[18:21] Miracle**
That's our Quan, huh?
**[18:23] Miracle**
She's amazing! Now clap.
**[18:26] Noelle**
Quan left?
**[18:27] Noelle**
*I feel like I'm not good enough either.*
**[18:32] Noelle**
*I know that it's not easy to get to the top.*
**[18:36] Noelle**
*But I can't believe I was only 4th place!*
**[18:39] Noelle**
* While I was sitting around moping,*
* Quan was already taking action.*
**[18:45] Noelle**
*I feel like I'm late out of the gate.*
**[18:47] Riz**
Noelle, you tired?
**[18:49] Noelle**
No, I was just surprised about Quan.
**[18:53] Riz**
I see. It is a surprise, yeah.
**[18:56] Miracle**
Well, I'm more surprised than anybody!
**[18:59] Miracle**
But now I'm, like, totally
ready to give this my all!
**[19:03] Miracle**
Let's do our best!
**[19:04] Noelle**
Yeah, let's.
**[19:06] Riz**
Yup, yup.
**[19:08] Vanity**
* Miracle-san, the lesson room*
* you reserved will be available soon.*
**[19:14] Miracle**
Oh, right.
**[19:15] Miracle**
Okay, bye everyone!
**[19:24] Miracle**
Quan...
**[19:26] Miracle**
It kind of hurts not to have her here.
**[19:30] Chris**
Miracle.
**[19:32] Miracle**
C-Chris?
**[19:34] Chris**
You doing okay?
**[19:35] Miracle**
Huh?!
**[19:36] Miracle**
O-Of course!
**[19:38] Miracle**
I was about to do some secret dance
lessons so I could surprise everybody!
**[19:46] Miracle**
I'm okay.
**[19:47] Miracle**
Thanks.
**[19:48] Chris**
Really?
**[19:49] Miracle**
Really, really!
**[19:51] Miracle**
Just you wait! Before long, I'll show you
a dance that will knock your socks off!
**[19:55] Chris**
My socks?
**[19:57] Miracle**
Yup.
**[19:59] Chris**
I'll look forward to that.
**[20:01] Chris**
Good luck.
**[20:02] Miracle**
Yeah, thanks!
**[20:09] Miracle**
Okay, time to get to work!
**[20:12] Miracle**
'Cause the path continues onwards...
**[20:15] Miracle**
Right, AI-chan?

Here's the first question, then.

What bug is at the heart of the world (sekai)?

What bug is at the heart of the world (sekai)?

What do you get even though you don't want it?
**[22:41] Chris**
What do you get even though you don't want it?

It means "get older."
**[22:50] Sign**
get something
**[22:50] Sign**

* I was so happy that everyone in*
* PathTLive made it past the qualifiers.*
**[00:08] Miracle**
* I was sure we'd all be able*
* to perform together again.*
**[00:13] (Flashback) Miracle**
So why did Quan... Why?
**[00:16] Miracle**
*And then, she wanted to talk to me!*
**[00:20] (Flashback) Quan**
Miracle, I wanted you to know...
**[00:23] (Flashback) Quan**
About me, Quan.
**[00:27] (Flashback) Miracle**
Um... I'm uh...
**[00:29] (Flashback) Miracle**
I'm sorry!
**[00:32] Miracle**
*After I ran away, AI-chan spoke to me.*
**[00:35] (Flashback) Kizuna AI**
A bond can't be broken that easily.
**[00:38] (Flashback) Kizuna AI**
Because the path continues onward.
**[00:40] Miracle**
*And then I met Niska from BRT5!*
**[00:44] Miracle**
* Talking to Niska made me feel*
* just a little bit better.*
**[00:48] Miracle**
*I talked to everybody about Quan...*
**[00:50] Miracle**
*We'll be able to connect again, right?*

I could help her.
**[02:48] Miracle**
Were you just talking about me?
**[02:53] Miracle**
The class I was taking
got canceled for today.
**[02:57] Miracle**
Hey, we're in different
classes today, right?
**[03:01] Chris**
Yeah.
**[03:03] Miracle**
We're almost always in the same classes.
That's kind of rare, right?
**[03:07] Chris**
Yeah.
**[03:09] Miracle**
What class did you take, Chris?
**[03:11] Chris**
Yeah.
**[03:13] Miracle**
Are you listening, Chris?
**[03:15] Chris**
Yeah.
**[03:18] Miracle**
Chris?
**[03:19] Miracle**
Are you okay?
**[03:21] Miracle**
You seem... different today.
**[03:25] Miracle**
Is something wrong?
**[03:28] Miracle**
*Is something on her mind, too?*
***SIGN*** Are you feeling any better?

**[03:33] Miracle**
N-Niska?
**[03:37] Chris**
Someone you know?
**[03:38] Miracle**
Well, um...
**[03:41] Miracle**
*I know!*
**[03:42] Miracle**
* Maybe Niska can help Chris*
* with what's on her mind, too?*
**[03:47] Miracle**
Chris...
**[03:50] Miracle**
Will you come with me?
**[03:56] Chris**
Where are we going?
**[03:57] Miracle**
You'll see!
**[04:06] Niska**
Come in.
**[04:11] Chris**
Niska... with BRT5.
**[04:15] Niska**
Welcome, both of you.
**[04:17] Niska**
I'm in the middle of some work, though.
**[04:20] Niska**
Will you wait for me to finish?
**[04:26] Miracle**
Niska, this is my friend, Chris!
**[04:29] Niska**
Nice to meet you.
**[04:30] Miracle**
Chris, this is Niska!
**[04:34] Miracle**
When I was down about what happened
with Quan, Niska helped me.
**[04:40] Miracle**
So I thought that maybe she could help you.
**[04:44] Chris**
I see.
**[04:45] Niska**
I hope I can help.
**[04:49] Chris**
You're with BRT5, right?
**[04:52] Chris**
But you came to talk to her about Quan?
**[04:55] Miracle**
Well...
**[04:57] Niska**
I've already left BRT5.
**[05:00] Niska**
That's why she came to talk to me.
**[05:03] Miracle**
That's right.
**[05:04] Chris**
Why?
**[05:06] Chris**
Why did you leave?
**[05:08] Miracle**
S-Stop!
**[05:11] Miracle**
C-Chris, you can't ask that!
**[05:13] Chris**
I can't?
**[05:14] Miracle**
You can't just come out and ask!
**[05:20] Niska**
You two are great.
**[05:22] Niska**
It's fine.
**[05:24] Niska**
There's no point in hiding it.
**[05:27] Niska**
A long time ago, I watched a documentary
about a group of mountain climbers.
**[05:33] Niska**
They climbed up the steepest cliffs
I've ever seen, thousands of meters high,
**[05:38] Niska**
with nothing but their seils, their climbing
ropes, and their trust in one another.
**[05:42] Niska**
Even in the most extreme situation possible,
**[05:44] Niska**
where a single moment's overconfidence
or hesitation can lead to death...
**[05:49] Niska**
An interviewer asked them...
**[05:52] Niska**
"Do you ever feel fear
when you're climbing?"
**[05:56] Niska**
And this is what they said.
**[05:58] Niska**
"Of course we do."
**[06:00] Niska**
"But even if we fall, our seil
partners will be there for us."
**[06:07] Niska**
Seil partners...
**[06:09] Niska**
It's a great word, I think.
**[06:11] Niska**
Because I have my comrades with me,
I can lead my group anywhere.
**[06:16] Niska**
That's what BRT5 was to me.
**[06:21] Chris**
But you left.
**[06:24] Niska**
I've worked for a long time to become a
top virtual artist and a top designer.
**[06:30] Niska**
But one day, my comrades told me...
**[06:34] Niska**
That they wanted me to quit being
a designer and just focus on BRT5.
**[06:38] Niska**
For me, being a designer and being
a virtual artist are both my seil.
**[06:45] Niska**
It doesn't matter what other
people think is the most important.
**[06:54] Niska**
Only I can decide the path I follow.
**[06:58] Niska**
That's why I left.
**[07:00] Niska**
But you see,
**[07:02] Niska**
now that I've left BRT5,
and now that I'm just "Niska,"
**[07:06] Niska**
I'm going to work even harder at
design and being a virtual artist.
**[07:12] Niska**
That's my goal right now, I guess.
**[07:15] Niska**
Sorry for the long speech.
**[07:17] Niska**
It must have bored you.
**[07:19] Miracle**
No, not at all.
**[07:21] Niska**
So, what's on your mind?
**[07:25] Chris**
There's someone I want to help.
**[07:27] Chris**
And I want to be able to
understand them to the point
**[07:30] Chris**
where I could be like them,
or even become them.
**[07:34] Chris**
And I don't know how...
**[07:37] Niska**
Will being like them really help them?
**[07:44] Niska**
For instance, did this
person ask you to do that?
**[07:51] Niska**
People don't look at how they're the same.
**[07:54] Niska**
They look at how they're different.
**[07:56] Niska**
Because of that, sometimes we
don't understand each other,
**[07:59] Niska**
and sometimes we don't get along.
**[08:00] Niska**
But that's why we can believe in each other.
**[08:05] Niska**
Maybe those differences are
what connect the two of you.
**[08:09] Chris**
Then what do I do?
**[08:12] Niska**
Don't worry about them, for now.
**[08:15] Niska**
For now, you need to find what it is
you like, and what you're good at.
**[08:18] Niska**
Your own possibilities.
**[08:21] Niska**
Any idea what those might be?
**[08:25] Chris**
What I'm good at...
**[08:29] Miracle**
I hope you find your own seil soon.
**[08:35] Chris**
Thank you.
**[08:37] Miracle**
* Am I the only one who's*
* not trying to change?*
**[08:51] Miracle**
This place is beautiful, isn't it?
**[08:54] Chris**
Yeah.
**[08:57] Chris**
Miracle.
**[08:59] Chris**
Will you do a collab with me?
**[09:13] (Flashback) Chris**
But... I want time.
**[09:16] (Flashback) Chris**
I don't want to just do it right now.
**[09:19] (Flashback) Chris**
First, I want to find my own seil.
**[09:24] (Flashback) Chris**
When I find that, I'll contact you.
**[09:27] (Flashback) Miracle**
Okay.
**[09:30] Miracle**
* It's not just Chris... Noelle...*
* Riz... and probably Quan, too...*
**[09:36] Miracle**
* They're all likely working as hard*
* as they can to take the next step.*
**[09:41] Miracle**
*So I need to do that, too.*
**[09:43] Miracle**
*I can't just sit around and do nothing.*
**[09:46] Miracle**
*I need to take the next step, too!*
**[09:53] Chris**
*Niska was right.*
**[09:56] Chris**
* Ever since I met Miracle, everything*
* I've done has centered around her.*
***SIGN*** Miracle
**[10:03] Chris**

those wonderful lyrics?

**[10:32] Noelle**
We haven't seen Chris for three whole days...
**[10:36] Riz**
And for once, Miracle's
nowhere to be seen either.
**[10:43] Miracle**
Let's hurry up and do a
concert as PathTLive!
**[10:46] Miracle**
Why don't we all practice?
**[10:49] Miracle**
I'm sure our next concert
will be a great one!
**[10:59] Noelle**
W-Well, if she's not around, it'll be
easier to focus on practicing, right?
**[11:04] Riz**
Who are you going to collab with, Noelle?
**[11:08] Riz**
If both Chris and Miracle aren't here,
**[11:11] Riz**
they might be practicing
for a collab themselves!
**[11:15] Riz**
This might be a good chance to try
collabing with different people.
**[11:19] Riz**
I think once in a while,
you need to try something new!
**[11:23] Noelle**
Well, sure, but...
**[11:34] Miracle**
Ow!
**[11:36] Vanity**
You've been pushing yourself
too hard, Miracle-san!
**[11:40] Vanity**
I told you not to overdo it.
**[11:45] Miracle**
I know, but...
**[11:47] Miracle**
I want to show everybody
that I've grown, too!
**[11:52] Vanity**
You have a new message from Chris-san!
**[11:56] Miracle**
Ow!
**[12:05] Chris**
What do you think?
**[12:07] Miracle**
Chris...
**[12:09] Miracle**
This song is really, really, the best!
**[12:14] Chris**
Th-Thank you.
**[12:17] Miracle**
I'm amazed you were able
to make such a good song
**[12:20] Miracle**
in such a short amount of time, Chris!
**[12:22] Miracle**
I can't wait to sing it on stage!
**[12:26] Chris**
Miracle...
**[12:29] Chris**
Remember what Niska said?
**[12:31] Chris**
That maybe becoming like someone
wouldn't really help them?
**[12:36] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[12:37] Chris**
If I really want to know someone,
**[12:40] Chris**
I need to take an honest look at myself.
**[12:44] Chris**
Because no matter how deep
the darkness is inside,
**[12:47] Chris**
it's the only place to find the answer.
**[12:49] Chris**
That's what I thought when I wrote this.
**[12:53] Chris**
You're the person I wanted to help, Miracle!
**[12:59] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[13:04] Chris**
I still don't know if
this is who I really am.
**[13:07] Chris**
But I've found my seil.
**[13:11] Miracle**
Yeah!
**[13:14] Miracle**
Okay, let's practice a whole bunch today!
**[13:21] Jua**
PathTLive is great!
**[13:25] Jua**
Look, look at this Thea!
**[13:28] Jua**
Their last concert!
**[13:29] Jua**
It'll get you fired up!
**[13:35] Jua**
Thea, are you listening?
**[13:37] Jua**
You're ignoring me? Totally ignoring me?
**[13:39] Jua**
Hey!
**[13:41] Jua**
No shutting me out!
**[13:46] Thea**
Stop.
**[13:48] Jua**
You finally talked!
**[13:49] Thea**
And I already saw that stream.
**[13:52] Jua**
Don't say that!
**[13:54] Jua**
It's my favorite thing I've seen lately.
**[13:57] Jua**
Let's watch it together.
**[14:01] Jua**
I think these kids are pretty good.
**[14:06] Jua**
I wonder if they'll upload something new soon.
**[14:12] Thea**
Now what?
**[14:15] Jua**
Speak of the devil!
**[14:18] Jua**
They just upped something!
**[14:35] [SONG] Song**
You can't make it visible
**[14:38] [SONG] Song**
You can't touch it
**[14:41] [SONG] Song**
But it's still here
**[14:44] [SONG] Song**
It's not a lie, it's real
**[14:47] [SONG] Song**
It's like it's so frustrating
**[14:50] [SONG] Song**
You can't fuse with it
**[14:53] [SONG] Song**
Is that the right answer?
**[14:56] [SONG] Song**
Tell me the answer
**[14:58] [SONG] Song**
Like it's still hidden (behind the curtain)
**[15:04] [SONG] Song**
It makes me want to understand
(that dazzling light)
**[15:07] [SONG] Song**
It has no form (but it's irreplaceable)
**[15:10] [SONG] Song**
I felt like I wanted to hold it tight
**[15:12] [SONG] Song**
Your piece
**[15:13] [SONG] Song**
You and I
**[15:14] [SONG] Song**
Jumping hearts
**[15:16] [SONG] Song**
When I held your hand I heard a "Yes"
**[15:19] [SONG] Song**
A pulsing signal, like a heartbeat
**[15:21] [SONG] Song**
Like a word
**[15:22] [SONG] Song**
Telepathy flying between us
**[15:24] [SONG] Song**
My piece
**[15:25] [SONG] Song**
I know that the souls
**[15:27] [SONG] Song**
that dwell within us
**[15:28] [SONG] Song**
Have different colors
**[15:31] [SONG] Song**
So that when we're together

we'll become the answer

I think I've found my HEART's AURORA

**[15:56] [SONG] Sign**
These two have gotten better, right?
**[15:56] [SONG] Sign**
It was so good!
**[15:59] Miracle**
We did it!
**[16:00] Miracle**
We did it, Chris!
**[16:03] Chris**
Yeah...
**[16:05] Miracle**
Thank you.
**[16:07] Miracle**
I feel a lot better thanks to you.
**[16:12] Chris**
I want to thank Niska, too.
**[16:14] Niska**
What was that about me?
**[16:17] Chris**
Niska.
**[16:19] Miracle**
What are you doing here?
**[16:21] Niska**
I wanted to tell you in person
that your collab was wonderful.
**[16:26] Niska**
Chris, I didn't think you'd grow
so much in just a few days.
**[16:32] Niska**
Your song was wonderful.
**[16:34] Chris**
It's thanks to you that
I was able to make it.
**[16:37] Chris**
Thank you.
**[16:38] Niska**
I didn't do anything.
**[16:40] Niska**
You're the one who found the
possibilities inside you.
**[16:45] Niska**
Anyway, you've got talent as a songwriter.
**[16:49] Niska**
I hope you get the chance
to improve that talent.
**[16:54] Chris**
Thank you.
**[16:55] Niska**
You were wonderful too, Miracle.
**[16:58] Niska**
I'm always surprised by the way
you seem like a whole new person
**[17:03] Niska**
each time you do a concert.
**[17:07] Miracle**
Aw...
**[17:09] Niska**
You practiced your dancing
a whole lot, right?
**[17:12] Niska**
You joined with the music and
expressed it through your movements...
**[17:16] Niska**
And became the music itself.
**[17:19] Niska**
I feel like what I saw was real dancing.
**[17:23] Miracle**
Thanks!
**[17:25] Chris**
Isn't that nice?
**[17:27] Niska**
* You both reminded me that there's*
* no limit to how much you can grow.*
**[17:33] Niska**
*She really is a fascinating girl.*
**[17:36] Niska**
* This is what makes her special.*
* This is her talent.*

**[17:51] Jua**
The choreography during
the chorus, especially!
**[17:53] Jua**
You were in perfect time with
the music! I got goosebumps!
**[17:57] Miracle**
Really? Thanks!
**[18:00] Jua**
And you too, Chris?
**[18:01] Jua**
You're a genius, to be able
to write a song like that!
**[18:04] Jua**
Teach me how to write lyrics sometime!
**[18:07] Chris**
Oh, sure.
**[18:09] Jua**
I'd like to go see you guys, but
Thea's being really annoying.
**[18:15] Jua**
Oh, I know!
**[18:17] Jua**
Miracle, collab with me next!
**[18:20] Miracle**
Really? Thanks.
**[18:22] Niska**
Hold it.

Hm...

I always tell myself, "If you always

Did you always work really
hard at everything?
**[21:05] Jua**

**[21:06] Jua**
My mom was a single mother, and people

In this segment, we're going
to answer your questions.
**[22:14] Ellie**
Are you ready?
**[22:15] Jessie**
Of course!
**[22:16] Sarah**
Always.
**[22:18] Halle**
I'm ready, but I'm worried
**[22:20] Halle**
about Miss Frozen Quan next
to me, since she's so shy.
**[22:23] Quan**
I-I'm fine!
**[22:26] Halle**
Are you going to be tongue-biting
Quan the whole day today?
**[22:29] Ellie**
Relax, relax!
**[22:32] Quan**
Okay, I'll do my best.
**[22:34] Ellie**
Time for our first question.
**[22:37] Ellie**
"Which of the participants do you
think will win the Lapin d'Or?"
**[22:41] Jessie**
Of course, BRT5 will!
**[22:45] Ellie**
I hope we can show you our Lapin d'Or soon.
**[22:50] Ellie**
Now, our second question.
**[22:52] Ellie**
"Please give me a comment from
your newest member, Quan!"
**[22:55] Quan**
Um...
**[22:57] Quan**
I'm going to do my best to find
a light here that's mine alone!
**[23:04] Ellie**
Our third question!
**[23:06] Ellie**
"Who are your rivals?"
**[23:08] Sarah**
I'm always my own rival.
**[23:11] Halle**
Huh? Didn't you say you had a childhood
friend who's been your rival your whole life?
**[23:16] Sarah**
That was a long time ago.
**[23:20] Sarah**
What about you, Halle?
**[23:22] Halle**
For me, it's my appetite!
**[23:25] Halle**
I always eat too much!
**[23:29] Ellie**
Maybe we're always our own biggest rivals.
**[23:33] Ellie**
That's all for today!
**[23:36] All**
Bye-bye!

Noelle's so bad at hiding her feelings.
**[23:41] Riz**
I guess I need to help her after all.

Next time on *Kizuna no Allele*: "Answer."
**[23:48] Riz**
Noelle doesn't act like she's in her teens.

**[02:26] Noelle**
*But I haven't changed at all.*
**[02:33] Noelle**
Riz?
**[02:38] Riz**
Hey.
**[02:39] Noelle**
This might be the first time
you've called me to talk.
**[02:42] Noelle**
What's up?
**[02:44] Riz**
I'm working on a song,
and I wanted your take.
**[02:47] Noelle**
For school?
**[02:49] Riz**
I figured I could use it once
I had somebody to collab with.
**[02:52] Noelle**
You're working hard, huh?
**[02:53] Riz**
So are you, right?
**[02:56] Noelle**
Not as much as you.
**[02:58] Riz**
You sure?
**[02:59] Noelle**
I'm surprised. I figured you'd
do this stuff on your own.
**[03:04] Riz**
Maybe I changed a little too after meeting
Miracle and the rest of you guys.
**[03:08] Noelle**
I see.
**[03:11] Riz**
Here goes.
**[03:18] Riz**
Well?
**[03:19] Noelle**
Well, the melody is certainly
memorable. What else?
**[03:23] Noelle**
Hm, how about a key change
before the chorus?
**[03:27] Noelle**
For you, it'd probably be easy.
**[03:30] Noelle**
Did I say something weird?
**[03:32] Riz**
No, I was just thinking
I was right to ask you.
**[03:36] Noelle**
I see.
**[03:37] Noelle**
I'm glad I was able to help.
**[03:43] Noelle**
What?
**[03:44] Riz**
Nothing.
**[03:45] Riz**
It's really easy to tell what's
going through your head.
**[03:47] Noelle**
It is?
**[03:49] Riz**
Right now, you're feeling kind of run down.
**[03:52] Riz**
You've been like that a lot lately.
**[03:56] Riz**
Remember when we all saw that BRT5 concert?
**[03:59] Riz**
I've been worried about you ever since then.
**[04:02] Noelle**
You've got a sharp eye, huh?
**[04:04] Riz**
I wasn't sure if I should bring it up,
but I decided I had to say something.
**[04:08] Noelle**
I see.
**[04:12] Noelle**
Quan...
**[04:14] Riz**
Quan?
**[04:17] Noelle**
When I saw Quan's concert,
I realized that I had to change.
**[04:23] Noelle**
Quan's eyes were shining.
**[04:24] Noelle**
Her gaze was locked straight onto
her future as a virtual artist.
**[04:29] Noelle**
Right now... I can't be like that.
**[04:34] Noelle**
I'm feeling really stressed out.
**[04:37] Riz**
I guess even you feel stressed, huh?
**[04:39] Noelle**
Of course I do!
**[04:42] Riz**
You know, you're usually act way
more mature than a teenager.
**[04:45] Noelle**
Huh?! I'm 16, you know.
**[04:48] Noelle**
No different than the rest of you.
**[04:52] Riz**
Of course.
**[04:53] Noelle**
I only got fourth place.
**[04:56] Riz**
Fourth place is really good.
**[04:57] Riz**
Is it that big a deal?
**[04:59] Noelle**
To me, it is.
**[05:01] Riz**
Why is the ranking such a big deal to you?
**[05:04] Noelle**
Because...
**[05:06] Noelle**
Um...
**[05:08] Riz**
Sheesh.
**[05:11] Riz**
Noelle, you busy after this?
**[05:14] Riz**
No, if you are, cancel it.
**[05:17] Riz**
There's somewhere I want to take you.
**[05:20] Riz**
You could use a change of pace, right?
**[05:21] Riz**
Come on, stand up.
**[05:23] Riz**
Noelle, bring out Vanity. Hurry.
**[05:26] Riz**
Let's go.
**[05:27] Noelle**
Huh? O-Okay.
**[05:37] Noelle**
What is this place?!
**[05:39] Riz**
A virtual footbath. Feels great, huh?
**[05:42] Riz**
It uses noise and head conduction to make
your brain think you're soaking in a bath.
**[05:47] Riz**
And the visual effect is
important too, right?
**[05:49] Noelle**
I see. But why?
**[05:52] Riz**
'Cause your face always
looks like that recently!
**[05:56] Noelle**
It does not!
**[05:58] Riz**
Well, it sure did!
**[06:00] Riz**
And I figured if you came here,
it might help melt away some of that stress.
**[06:10] Noelle**
This place is nice.
**[06:13] Riz**
I'm happy to hear you say that.
**[06:16] Riz**
It was apparently really hard to get
the details of the re-creation right.
**[06:20] Noelle**
Re-creation?
**[06:22] Riz**
This space is made to look exactly
like the Japanese inn my parents run.
**[06:29] Noelle**
Your parents?!
**[06:31] Riz**
Took you long enough.
**[06:32] Riz**
Our inn's been around for
190 years. It's really old.
**[06:36] Riz**
Isn't that amazing?
**[06:38] Noelle**
190 years?
**[06:40] Noelle**
That is amazing!
**[06:41] Riz**
Thanks.
**[06:43] Riz**
Some people say we're behind
the times and need to change.
**[06:48] Riz**
But whenever that happens,
someone from our family
**[06:51] Riz**
has always worked to protect it,
generation after generation.
**[06:55] Riz**
Repairing each and every pillar.
**[06:57] Riz**
Taking the best care we can
of every single customer.
**[07:00] Riz**
All those years of effort
connect us to the past.
**[07:08] Riz**
When I come here, I can always ask myself...
**[07:10] Riz**
Am I really doing my best with
everything I've got in front of me?
**[07:16] Riz**
So whenever I'm feeling down,
I come here to get my spirits back up.
**[07:20] Riz**
"Whenever you see somebody working hard,
you start to feel like you can work hard, too!"
**[07:24] Riz**
That's what my grandma always said.
**[07:27] Riz**
You kind of remind me of myself, Noelle.
**[07:33] Riz**
So I wondered if maybe we
grew up in similar environments.
**[07:37] Riz**
It felt like you grew up surrounded by people
**[07:40] Riz**
who were always working
as hard as they could.
**[07:42] Riz**
And so you felt like you always needed
to be working harder yourself.
**[07:47] Riz**
Always looking up at someone
you thought was better than you.
**[07:50] Riz**
That's because you know how hard
it is to win their respect, right?
**[07:55] Riz**
Noelle, the anxiety you're
feeling is important.
**[08:03] Riz**
But for now, let's relax.
**[08:16] Niska**
I'm sorry for being so selfish back there.
**[08:20] Niska**
It wasn't like me.
**[08:21] Miracle**
It did surprise me a little.
**[08:24] Miracle**
But was it true? That you want me to um...
**[08:27] Niska**
I didn't mean to say it like that, though.
**[08:32] Niska**
I've been thinking of you a lot lately.
**[08:35] Niska**
And each time I learn more about you,
**[08:37] Niska**
I feel like I don't want to
let anybody else have you.
**[08:39] Niska**
Watch out!
**[08:46] Niska**
You need somebody to look out for you.
**[08:49] Niska**
Maybe that's why.
**[08:51] Miracle**
I-It's your fault, Niska!
For saying weird stuff!
**[08:55] Niska**
I didn't say anything weird.
**[08:57] Niska**
I meant just what I said.
**[08:58] Miracle**
Well, you said it in a weird way!
**[09:00] Niska**
Did I?
**[09:02] Miracle**
And anyway... why me?
**[09:05] Niska**
I'm not sure.
**[09:07] Niska**
You're unpredictable.
You have something I don't.
**[09:12] Niska**
And I find that attractive.
**[09:14] Niska**
I can't say exactly what
that is yet, though.
**[09:16] Niska**
But it’s something I'll never have...
**[09:24] Miracle**
It's the same as I saw before...
**[09:27] Miracle**
I feel a kind of loneliness from Niska.
**[09:33] Miracle**
Did I say that aloud?
**[09:36] Niska**
Yeah.
**[09:36] Niska**
Um, well...
**[09:38] Niska**
When I saw the avatar you
designed, it was really cool,
**[09:42] Niska**
but it looked kind of sad, somehow...
**[09:44] Niska**
But I found the way it was standing
there all alone so compelling...
**[09:48] Niska**
And so I remembered that, and I guess
I said what I was thinking aloud!
**[09:53] Niska**
You really are amazing, Miracle.
**[09:55] Niska**
Maybe that's why.
**[10:02] Niska**
Miracle, I don't want to
take back what I said.
**[10:06] Niska**
Am I not good enough?
**[10:11] Riz**
What a great bath.
**[10:13] Riz**
Please come back sometime.
**[10:15] Noelle**
Yeah.
**[10:17] Noelle**
You're not going to ask anything?
**[10:19] Riz**
I've heard the best thing to
do at times like this is wait.
**[10:23] Noelle**
Is that something your
grandma told you, too?
**[10:25] Riz**
Maybe so.
**[10:29] Noelle**
Will you listen to my story?
**[10:35] Noelle**
My family are all virtual artists.
**[10:38] Noelle**
My sister, my father, my mother:
they're all really talented.
**[10:41] Noelle**
Much more so than me.
**[10:45] Noelle**
Just like you said, I think
I need to work harder...
**[10:49] Noelle**
But thinking about my family just makes
me feel like I'm not good enough.
**[10:54] Riz**
Yeah, you can't help but compare
yourself to your family.
**[10:58] Noelle**
I've always felt like I had to be perfect.
**[11:02] Noelle**
When Miracle said I didn't,
I felt so much better.
**[11:08] Noelle**
I thought I was finally over it.
**[11:12] Noelle**
But when the reality that
I only placed fourth sunk in...
**[11:16] Noelle**
I realized I was wrong.
**[11:18] Noelle**
The thought that my family might
see my failure... made me scared.
**[11:24] Noelle**
I haven't been able to change at all.
**[11:28] Noelle**
I feel so pathetic... and I hate it!
**[11:33] Noelle**
I think about my family so much that
I don't know how to face the music...
**[11:38] Noelle**
I can't do it like I did before.
**[11:43] Noelle**
Like Quan can.
**[11:55] Riz**
My grandma told me that when
you really can't do something,
**[11:58] Riz**
you don't even know what it is you can't do.
**[12:01] Riz**
If you know the reason you’re suffering,
that means you've grown up, right?
**[12:07] Riz**
So what you’re having problems
with right now isn’t your ranking.
**[12:14] Riz**
It's your family, right?
**[12:17] Riz**
You have to overcome that, or you'll
be stuck where you are forever.
**[12:22] Noelle**
But what do I do?
**[12:25] Riz**
Hm...
**[12:29] Riz**
Why not make a performance that you
want to reach just your family?
**[12:35] Noelle**
Just my family?
**[12:37] Riz**
Yes. A performance that touches
everyone is a wonderful thing!
**[12:41] Riz**
But isn't it amazing to have a performance
that only reaches one person, too?
**[12:46] Noelle**
I've never even thought about it.
**[12:49] Riz**
Songs have that kind of power.
**[12:52] Riz**
You of all people should know that, Noelle.
**[13:06] Noelle**
*The people I want to reach...*
**[13:11] Noelle**
* I want them to see who I am now,*
* so that I can like myself.*
**[13:20] Noelle**
It's done!
**[13:28] Noelle**
Yeah, sounds good.
**[13:30] Riz**
It conveys your feelings really well!
**[13:33] Noelle**
Really?
**[13:34] Noelle**
The only thought in my head
when I wrote this song
**[13:37] Noelle**
was that I wanted these
feelings to reach my family.
**[13:39] Noelle**
And then the words just came naturally.
**[13:42] Noelle**
I was able to express my true feelings.
**[13:45] Noelle**
I feel like this song saved me...
**[13:48] Noelle**
That's never happened before.
**[13:50] Noelle**
Maybe it's not a song for
everybody, but I like it.
**[13:54] Riz**
When's the performance?
**[13:55] Noelle**
In two days.
**[13:57] Noelle**
I sent tickets to the stream to my family.
**[14:00] Noelle**
I don't know if they'll listen, but...
**[14:02] Riz**
If you sing, I'm sure it'll be fine.
**[14:05] Riz**
Come on, have some confidence!
**[14:08] Noelle**
Yeah. Thanks.
**[14:22] Noelle**
Everyone, thank you for
coming to my performance.
**[14:28] Noelle**
This song I'm about to
sing is a special one!
**[14:34] Noelle**
Actually, I've been unsure of how to
face my music as a virtual artist.
**[14:42] Noelle**
I was so obsessed with my
Linker count and ranking at school
**[14:46] Noelle**
that I lost sight of myself.
**[14:49] Noelle**
And then my friend encouraged me,
and I realized something.
**[14:53] Noelle**
I was wrong to try and seek
validation through numbers.
**[14:58] Noelle**
I'd been looking away from what
I truly needed to overcome.
**[15:04] Noelle**
This song is for my family.
**[15:08] Noelle**
I offer this song to the people I care about,
who I need to overcome.
**[15:14] Noelle**
This is who I am right now!
**[15:17] Noelle**
I'm still inexperienced,
so maybe it's not perfect.
**[15:19] Noelle**
But I like who I am now a whole lot,
and I like this song, too.
**[15:25] Noelle**
I hope my feelings reach you!
**[17:03] Ada**
Wonderful.
**[17:05] Ada**
I knew it.
**[17:07] Ada**
Only when each individual
shines their brightest
**[17:09] Ada**
can they help each become even better.
**[17:11] Ada**
What makes each of them unique
is going to become even better.
**[17:23] Noelle**
My sister...
**[17:27] Noelle**
Yes, this is Noelle.
**[17:29] Sister**
*Noelle? It's me.*
**[17:31] Sister**
*Thanks for the invitation to your concert.*
**[17:34] Sister**
*I saw it.*
**[17:35] Noelle**
So you saw it... Thanks!
**[17:38] Sister**
*Come home, right now!*
**[17:42] Sister**
*Mom and Dad want to see you right away.*
**[17:45] Sister**
*We're waiting.*
**[17:52] Noelle**
It'll be okay.
**[17:57] Noelle**
It'll be okay.
**[18:04] Noelle**
I'm home.
**[18:05] Mom**
Noelle! It's been so long.
**[18:08] Noelle**
Yes, Mother. It has.
**[18:10] Noelle**
I see everyone is doing well.
**[18:13] Mom**
How's school?
**[18:15] Dad**
Come on, we can talk about that later.
**[18:17] Mom**
That's right!
**[18:19] Mom**
It's been so long I forgot myself.
**[18:21] Mom**
Come over here.
**[18:27] Noelle**
U-Um, I...
**[18:30] Sister**
Noelle, your concert was great!
**[18:33] Sister**
It was wonderful, really!
**[18:36] Sister**
The lyrics in it really resonated with me.
**[18:40] Sister**
You've found your own song, haven't you?
**[18:42] Noelle**
Well...
**[18:45] Mom**
You're really working hard, huh Noelle?
**[18:47] Mom**
I could tell from your performance.
**[18:51] Mom**
I'm so proud!
**[18:53] Noelle**
I was so scared.
**[18:55] Noelle**
I couldn't get the results I wanted.
**[18:58] Noelle**
I hated myself so much
for not being perfect.
**[19:04] Dad**
You seemed just fine to me.
**[19:06] Dad**
You've always faced yourself.
**[19:09] Dad**
You overcome your problems
without running away.
**[19:12] Dad**
You're an amazing artist.
**[19:14] Noelle**
Yeah...
**[19:17] Noelle**
Yeah.
**[19:21] Students**
Noelle's concert was amazing!
**[19:24] Quan**
*Noelle's an even better artist than before.*
**[19:28] Quan**
*I need to practice more.*
**[19:31] Students**
No way!
**[19:32] Students**
I can't believe it!
**[21:09] Students**
Those two were an incredible pair, right?
**[21:12] Students**
I can't believe how well that worked!

Why do we slip on banana peels?

The results of my research

You want me to tell you, you say?

* Noelle's always so confident,*
* but lately she's been acting weird.*
**[00:09] Riz**
* So I tried taking her somewhere*
* for a change of pace.*
**[00:11] (Flashback) N**
What is this place?!
**[00:13] (Flashback) Riz**
A virtual footbath.
**[00:14] Riz**
*I took her to my family's home!*
**[00:16] (Flashback) Riz**
When I come here, I can always ask myself...
**[00:18] (Flashback) Riz**
Am I really doing my best with
everything I've got in front of me?
**[00:24] Riz**
*After I told her about myself,*
**[00:26] Riz**
* Noelle started telling*
* me about herself, too.*
**[00:29] (Flashback) N**
I think about my family so much that
I don't know how to face the music...
**[00:35] Riz**
*So I gave her a little encouragement.*
**[00:38] (Flashback) Riz**
Isn't it amazing to have a performance
that only reaches one person, too?
**[00:43] (Flashback) N**
This is who I am right now!
**[00:45] (Flashback) N**
I hope my feelings reach you!
**[00:48] Riz**
* Okay! I'm gonna make a great*
* song and do a collab, too!*
**[00:52] Riz**
*Huh? Miracle did a collab with Niska?!*

**[02:40] Ellie**
Well, there's a pair I never saw coming.
**[02:42] Halle**
A combination between a great artist,
and one who's not-so-great!
**[02:47] Sarah**
What a ridiculous thing to do.
**[02:51] Sarah**
Niska left. It doesn't
matter what she does now.
**[02:53] Sarah**
Our goal doesn't change.
**[02:56] Quan**
By goal, you mean entering the VGAs?
**[03:00] Sarah**
It's not something that simple.
**[03:03] Ellie**
Yes, our goal is...
**[03:05] Jessie**
To be the top virtual artists!
**[03:08] Hallie**
And that means winning the Lapin d'Or!
**[03:14] Quan**
* Yeah, maybe they can...*
* Maybe BRT5 are capable of winning.*
**[03:19] Quan**
*So why...*
**[03:21] Quan**
Why did Niska leave BRT5?
**[03:24] Hallie**
Niska said she wanted to be both a
virtual artist and a virtual designer.
**[03:30] Hallie**
But Jessie insisted that
she focus just on BRT5.
**[03:34] Jessie**
Of course I did.
**[03:35] Jessie**
This is an important time for BRT5.
**[03:38] Jessie**
She can be a designer later.
**[03:40] Sarah**
That's right. We're not the
top artists in the world yet.
**[03:44] Sarah**
We're just getting started, and she...
**[03:46] Ellie**
I don't really think you can
have BRT5 without Niska...
**[03:50] Sarah**
BRT5 will reach the top,
with or without Niska!
**[03:53] Quan**
* True, every artist longs*
* to win the Lapin d'Or.*
**[03:59] Quan**
*But do I want to go that far?*
**[04:01] Hallie**
What's wrong, Quan?
**[04:03] Hallie**
You're freezing up again.
**[04:06] Jessie**
You didn't join up just 'cause you
weren't busy when we asked, right?
**[04:09] Sarah**
I don't know what was going through
your head when you joined.
**[04:13] Sarah**
But we're not here to babysit you.
**[04:16] Sarah**
If you can't keep up, we don't need you.
**[04:20] Quan**
* I decided I'd follow this path*
* no matter how hard it got.*
**[04:23] Quan**
*Until it connects to PathTLive!*
**[04:26] Quan**
I'm going to surpass all of you!
**[04:30] Hallie**
Ooh, listen to you!
**[04:32] Hallie**
I've got high hopes for you!
**[04:34] Ellie**
Want to get some practice
in right now, then?
**[04:36] Ellie**
Sarah, where are you going?
**[04:39] Sarah**
I'm not here to be friends with people.
**[04:42] Sarah**
Just try not to slow me down.
**[04:45] Sarah**
I don't care who else is in our unit
as long as they can get us to the top.

**[05:17] (Flashback) Kid**
Now you freeze!
**[05:38] Sarah**
Zoe.
**[05:41] Zoe**
Sarah.
**[05:45] Sarah**
Good timing.
**[05:47] Zoe**
What?
**[05:48] Sarah**
I'm going to avenge the humiliation
I've suffered before the VGAs start.
**[05:53] Zoe**
I see.
**[05:55] Miracle**
It all looks like so much fun!
**[05:58] Miracle**
I hope Noelle and the others get here soon.
**[06:00] Jua**
Hey, Miracle!
**[06:02] Jua**
Yo!
**[06:02] Jua**
I want to try that! Let's go together!
**[06:06] Thea**
Jua always gets so excited for everything.
**[06:11] Hallie**
That does look fun! Let's go!
**[06:18] Jua**
What is this place?
**[06:19] Jua**
There's nothing here!
**[06:21] Sarah**
You guys...
**[06:22] Miracle**
Sarah, Zoe, Thea, Hallie!
**[06:24] Miracle**
You're part of the group that
made it through the qualifiers!
**[06:27] Miracle**
Good to see you!
**[06:29] XR Students**
Welcome, everyone, to the Vany Game!
**[06:33] XR Students**
Have fun, okay?
**[06:35] XR Students**
If you can, that is!
**[06:37] XR Students**
We've got exactly 10
players, so we'll start!
**[06:46] Miracle**
Wow!
**[06:47] Jua**
Let's get started!
**[06:48] Hallie**
Let's! Let's!
**[06:50] XR Student**
Today's game is "Banana Tag - ADEN Version!"
**[06:54] Miracle**
Banana Tag?
**[06:56] XR Student**
That's right.
**[06:56] XR Student**
Freeze tag is more well-known,
**[06:59] XR Student**
but the rules are the same.
**[07:02] XR Student**
The person who's "it" counts to ten.
**[07:05] XR Student**
Then they'll run chasing people,
and if they touch you,
**[07:07] XR Student**
you turn into a banana instead of freezing.
**[07:10] XR Student**
This is a virtual space, so you really
do get turned into a banana.
**[07:15] XR Student**
The others can peel a banana while
running away from the one who's "it."
**[07:20] XR Student**
If you peel someone, they can turn back
into a person and rejoin the game.
**[07:25] XR Student**
But you can only turn back once!
**[07:27] XR Student**
You've got quite an experience
waiting in store for you,
**[07:30] XR Student**
but try your best to survive until the end!
**[07:32] XR Student**
The last player standing
gets a pack of ADEN snacks!
**[07:33] Sign**

White Vanity Thunder
**[07:39] Halle**
All the snacks you can eat!
**[07:41] XR Student**
It's not all you can eat...
**[07:45] Sarah**
Zoe.
**[07:47] Sarah**
I'm going to win this, no matter what.
**[07:49] Sarah**
I'm going to beat you,
and all the other players, too.
**[07:52] Jua**
Hey, don't you let her intimidate you, Zoe!
**[07:54] Jua**
Fight hard!
**[07:55] Jua**
The rest of you, too! Fight hard!
**[07:57] Halle**
The snacks are mine!
**[07:58] All**
Yeah!
**[08:00] XR Student**
Okay, the one who's "it" is about to appear.
**[08:02] XR Student**
The game runs for 30 minutes!
**[08:03] XR Student**
See you again when it's over.
**[08:06] XR Student**
If you survive, that is!
**[08:10] Jua**
Oh, "it" is a Vanity.
**[08:13] Jua**
This'll be easy!
**[08:14] Vanity**
10...
**[08:15] Vanity**
9...
**[08:16] Vanity**
8...
**[08:17] Vanity**
7...
**[08:18] Vanity**

**[08:19] Vanity**

**[08:19] Halle**
Something's weird.
**[08:20] Vanity**

**[08:21] Vanity**
3...
**[08:22] Vanity**
2...
**[08:23] Vanity**
1...
**[08:24] Vanity**
0.
**[08:25] Halle**
Now he looks really scary!
**[08:27] Miracle**
I'm super-spooked!
**[08:30] Jua**
He's so intimidating...
**[08:32] XR Student**
Let the game begin!
**[08:37] Miracle**
It's coming after me first!
**[08:47] Miracle**
You won't catch me that easily!
**[08:54] Miracle**
When I was a kid, I learned how to use
**[08:56] Miracle**
every piece of playground
equipment they had!
**[08:57] Miracle**
They called me the Playground Master!
**[08:59] Miracle**
Underestimate me, and you'll get hurt!
**[09:01] Halle**
Miracle's acting different than usual!
**[09:03] Halle**
That's neat, though!
**[09:04] Jua**
Miracle's doing great!
**[09:06] Jua**
Now it's coming after us!
**[09:08] Jua**
Okay!
**[09:09] Jua**
Get on the spinning jungle gym!
**[09:12] Jua**
Hang on tight you guys!
**[09:18] Participant**
No fair!
**[09:20] Participant**
I'm a banana now!
**[09:21] Jua**
Sorry! Sorry!
**[09:22] Jua**
I'll come help you later!
**[09:24] Thea**
I don't feel so good.
**[09:26] Jua**
That's from playing video games
all day instead of exercising.
**[09:28] Jua**
It wasn't even spinning that fast.
**[09:31] Thea**
I just suck with anything that's analog...
**[09:35] Jua**
Nah, this is easy!
**[09:40] Halle**
That Vanity's pretty fast for how big it is.
**[09:44] Sarah**
It's going to be a battle of endurance.
**[09:45] XR Students**
*You're all hanging in there, huh?*
**[09:48] XR Students**
* But it's no fun if you just*
* hide for the whole game, right?*
**[09:51] XR Students**
*So we're adding in a mission!*
**[09:54] XR Students**
* If you can't pop that balloon in five minutes,*
* you'll have three more Vanitys to deal with!*
**[09:58] XR Students**
*Better come out of those hiding spots, huh?*
**[10:01] Miracle**
I don't think we could handle three more!
**[10:04] Miracle**
Nobody's moving.
**[10:05] Miracle**
Jua, what do we do?
**[10:07] Jua**
We've gotta try, right?
**[10:08] Jua**
Miracle, I'll distract it!
You pop the balloon!
**[10:12] Miracle**
Sounds like a plan!
**[10:12] Thea**
Wait! Are you gonna run out there without a plan?
**[10:15] Sarah**
That's so reckless.
**[10:23] Jua**
Miracle!
**[10:36] Jua**
Those two have a personality that
lets them do whatever they want!
**[10:39] Thea**
They just blindly rushed out there.
**[10:43] Miracle/Jua**
We did it!
**[10:48] Jua**
Zoe, thank you!
**[10:50] Sarah**
Zoe...
**[10:54] XR Students**
* You guys are hanging in there*
* better than I thought.*
**[10:56] XR Students**
*So we're gonna put some obstacles in!*
**[10:59] XR Students**
* These mini Support Vanitys want to play too,*
* so let them join in the game!*
**[11:04] XR Students**
* Anybody who's mean enough to step on them*
* will turn into a banana, so be careful!*
**[11:09] Miracle**
I feel like I'm going to step
on one even if I don't want to!
**[11:11] Halle**
I can barely move like this!
**[11:13] XR Students**
*Ten minutes left!*
**[11:15] XR Students**
*How many will survive?*
**[11:26] Sarah**
*This is how it was back then.*
**[11:29] Sarah**
*Zoe never cared about anybody else,*
**[11:32] Sarah**
*but she was always the center of attention.*
**[11:34] Sarah**
*People always gathered around her.*
**[11:39] Sarah**
Why?
**[11:46] Zoe**
What are you doing?
**[11:50] Zoe**
Don't you want to play?
**[11:55] Zoe**
What's wrong?
**[11:57] Sarah**
Nothing.
**[11:59] Zoe**
I see.
**[12:03] Sarah**
*I don't want to let Zoe beat me.*
**[12:07] Thea**
Three minutes left!
**[12:09] Miracle**
I-I'm out of energy...
**[12:13] Zoe**
Where's Sarah?
**[12:14] Jua**
I haven't seen her for a while,
now that you mention it.
**[12:17] Halle**
Did she get caught, you think?
**[12:19] Miracle**
Let's look for her!
**[12:25] Sarah**
* Until I got to elementary school,*
* nobody could beat me at anything.*
**[12:30] Sarah**
*But when I moved and met Zoe...*
**[12:34] Sarah**
*She made me realize how weak I was.*
**[12:37] Sarah**
*Why couldn't I win?*
**[12:39] Sarah**
*What was the difference?*
**[12:40] Sarah**
*Skill? Talent?*
**[12:43] Sarah**
*How could I beat her?*
**[12:45] Sarah**
*All I ever thought about was beating her.*
**[12:49] Sarah**
*I thought beating her was all that mattered.*
**[12:53] Sarah**
*But...*
**[12:55] Halle**
There she is!
**[12:58] Sarah**
The game's almost over.
You don't need to help me.
**[13:01] Halle**
Don't worry!
**[13:02] Halle**
We'll help you!
**[13:04] Miracle**
One minute left!
**[13:06] Jua**
Miracle, let's just run as fast as we can!
**[13:08] Thea**
Jua, it won't work a second time.
**[13:10] Jua**
With all of us here, it'll work out somehow!
**[13:12] Halle**
Zoe!
**[13:15] Jua**
Now!
**[13:20] Zoe**
What are you even doing?
**[13:28] (Flashback) Zoe**
I can't beat you at Hide and Seek, can I?
**[13:43] XR Students**
*Time's up!*
**[13:45] Zoe**
You're still better at Hide and Seek, huh?
**[13:49] Sarah**
Shut up!
**[13:51] Thea**
Do you know each other?
**[13:54] Zoe**
We've been apart for a while.
But we're friends.
**[13:59] Sarah**
Why did you help me?
**[14:01] Zoe**
Because it's boring without you.
**[14:04] Zoe**
They're the same.
**[14:06] Sarah**
What are you doing here?
**[14:08] Halle**
Of course we're going to help you!
**[14:09] Miracle**
We're rivals after the same thing,
but we're also comrades, right?
**[14:14] Jua**
Anything we do is fun
as long as we do it together, right?
**[14:18] Sarah**
What?
**[14:20] Sarah**
*I feel kind of weird...*
**[14:24] Miracle**
*Even if we're apart, it's okay... right?*
**[14:31] XR Students**
Good game, everyone!
**[14:34] XR Students**
I sent your prize of ADEN snacks in
the form of a coupon to your VANITIM!
**[14:38] All**
Hooray!
**[14:40] XR Students**
Oh, I know!
**[14:40] XR Students**
You guys all made it through
the ADEN Seed, right?
**[14:43] XR Students**
Why don't you do a concert
to celebrate your win?
**[14:46] Jua**
We can do a collab competition!
**[14:48] Halle**
A collab, huh?
**[14:49] Miracle**
That sounds great!
**[14:52] Sarah**
Zoe, would you like to do a collab with me?
**[14:54] Jua**
Zoe, do a collab with me!
**[14:57] Miracle**
What about me?
**[14:59] Sarah**
Why are you talking to Zoe?
**[15:01] Jua**
Because I had fun playing the game with her!
**[15:05] Jua**
What about you?
**[15:06] Jua**
You were talking about how you
didn't want to let her beat you.
**[15:08] Jua**
I thought you didn't like her.
**[15:11] Halle**
Sarah's the type to say she doesn't
like someone, even when she does.
**[15:15] Halle**
When she said she didn't
want to let Zoe beat her,
**[15:18] Halle**
what she actually meant was that she likes
her and wants to play the game together!
**[15:21] Halle**
Isn't that cute?
**[15:23] Sarah**
Don't be ridiculous!
**[15:24] Sarah**
That's not what I said!
**[15:26] Sarah**
I don't care who I'm paired with!
**[15:28] Sarah**
Fine, I'll just pair off with this girl!
**[15:31] Miracle**
Aw, I didn't know you wanted
to do a collab with me!
**[15:34] Sarah**
I grabbed the *wrong* girl, obviously!
**[15:36] Sarah**
Why would I want to work with
the most useless girl here?
**[15:39] Miracle**
Useless?
**[15:41] Jua**
Then it's settled!
**[15:42] Jua**
It's okay, right Zoe?
**[15:44] Zoe**
Sure, I guess.
**[15:46] Sarah**
W-Wait!
**[15:48] Thea**
I'm not going to do this.
**[15:50] Jua**
Then the two of us can just watch it, Thea!
**[15:53] Jua**
Okay?
**[15:53] XR Students**
Have fun!
**[19:07] XR Students**
*The winner of our collab competition is...*
**[19:10] XR Students**
the team of Zoe and Jua!
**[19:14] Sarah**
*My body felt... light somehow.*
**[19:17] Sarah**
* Maybe I'd forgotten what it meant to just*
* give something my all and have fun.*
**[19:21] Sarah**
*All I ever thought about was beating Zoe...*
**[19:23] Sarah**
*I wasn't thinking about anything else.*
**[19:26] Sarah**
* This place, this virtual space,*
* is connected by many lines.*
**[19:32] Sarah**
* And all those lines form a path that*
* connects to where I want to go.*
**[19:37] Zoe**
I think you're monologuing
to yourself right now...
**[19:40] Zoe**
But you're a banana.
**[19:44] Zoe**
I made sure to save the photo.
**[19:47] Jua**
Glad it worked out for you,
Sarah! You look great!
**[19:50] Miracle**
She looks better than me!
**[19:51] Halle**
She's so cute! I'll take a photo, too!
**[19:54] Sarah**
Zoe, delete that right now!
**[19:57] Zoe**
No.
**[19:57] Jua**
Why? You look cute!
**[19:58] Halle**
I'm making it my wallpaper!
**[20:00] Sarah**
Don't you dare! Delete that immediately!
**[20:02] Jua**
You make a great banana!
**[20:03] Sarah**
Give me that!

**[22:22] Halle**
ADEN Chips!
**[22:23] Halle**
Pretty Salty with a Bit of Coriander!
**[22:26] Halle**
They're made from potatoes
from ADEN's own farms,
**[22:29] Halle**
they're light and thinly-cut so
you can eat a whole bunch!
**[22:32] Halle**
They're pretty salty, but weirdly addicting.
**[22:35] Halle**
The coriander's separate
so you can add it in.
**[22:37] Miracle**
I never do.

Where should we go today?
**[02:15] Noelle**
Miracle, you know what the
reason for this event is, right?
**[02:18] Miracle**
Of course! It's for the students to
cheer on the winners of the ADEN Seed,
**[02:22] Miracle**
and for the winners to get cheered up!
**[02:24] Miracle**
And I'm one of the ones who gets cheered up!
**[02:27] Miracle**
I really want to be cheered up!
**[02:30] Miracle**
Yay!
**[02:32] Chris**
Yay!
**[02:35] Sofia**
Chris!
**[02:39] Sofia**
I came to say hi!
**[02:40] Miracle**
Sofia!
**[02:43] Miracle**
Again?
**[02:45] Sofia**
Want to go around together today?
**[02:49] Miracle**
Sure!
**[02:49] Chris**
No!
**[02:51] Sofia**
Come on, I'm not scary!
**[02:55] Miracle**
Aw, Chris.
**[02:57] Miracle**
Calm down...
**[02:58] Sofia**
I guess she really doesn't like me.
**[03:03] Sofia**
I'll give up for today.
**[03:05] Miracle**
Sorry, I guess.
**[03:07] Miracle**
Bye!
**[03:08] Sofia**
Yeah, see you around.
**[03:13] Sofia**
Guess I got turned down.
**[03:16] Sofia**
Well, that just makes it more
fun to do my calculations.
**[03:24] Miracle**
You okay, Chris?
**[03:27] Riz**
It's rare for Chris to
react to anyone like that.
**[03:30] Riz**
Sofia's the only girl she
reacts to like that.
**[03:34] Miracle**
But I mean, everybody can be like
that once in a while, right?

**[03:50] XR Student**
It's just like concentration!
**[03:50] Sign**
Concentration
**[03:52] XR Student**
The only differences are that you can pick the
difficulty, and that there are special cards.
**[03:57] Noelle**
How many difficulty levels are there?
**[03:59] Sign**
Easy - 14 Cards
**[03:59] Sign**
Normal - 24 Cards
**[03:59] Sign**
Expert - 52 Cards
**[03:59] XR Student**
Three! Easy, normal, and expert!
**[04:02] XR Student**
They each have a different number of cards.
**[04:04] XR Student**
And on Expert, the cards get
shuffled each time it's your turn!
**[04:08] Miracle**
If they get shuffled every time,
you'll never be able to win!
**[04:12] XR Student**
You can, actually.
**[04:14] Chris**
What do the special cards do?
**[04:16] XR Student**
If you get a pair, you can
take your opponents' points!
**[04:20] Miracle**
I want to try it!
**[04:22] Riz**
Why don't we give it a go?

I'm challenging you, Chris!
**[04:49] All**
Sofia!
**[04:52] Miracle**
She just said she was giving up for today...
**[04:56] Noelle**
Sofia's pretty aggressive.
**[05:00] Miracle**
What do you want to do, Chris?
**[05:02] Chris**
I'll pass!
**[05:04] Miracle**
Chris!
**[05:05] Sofia**
Wait!
**[05:07] Miracle**
I'll go talk to her!
**[05:08] Miracle**
You guys play without us.
**[05:11] Noelle**
What do we do, Riz?
**[05:12] Riz**
Well, I guess I am interested.
**[05:15] Noelle**
It'll give you some new data, right?
**[05:17] Riz**
That's right.
**[05:20] Miracle**
Chris!
**[05:27] Chris**
Miracle, I'm sorry...
**[05:29] Miracle**
Why are you apologizing?
**[05:30] Chris**
Let's go back.
**[05:33] Miracle**
Why don't we take a break first?
**[05:35] Chris**
But...
**[05:36] Miracle**
I kind of feel like I need a break!
**[05:41] Chris**
Yeah.
**[05:45] Sofia**
Too bad.
**[05:46] Riz**
You're being too pushy.
**[05:48] Riz**
Well, whatever.
**[05:50] Riz**
Let's get to it.
**[05:51] Riz**
Which will you pick?
**[05:52] Riz**
I'm fine with "Expert."
**[05:54] Sofia**
Gotcha.
**[05:58] Computer**
*Decide who will go first.*
**[06:01] Sofia**
Let's pick with rock-paper-scissors.
**[06:04] Sofia**
Rock, paper, scissors!
**[06:07] Noelle**
You can do this, Riz!
**[06:11] Computer**
*Sofia's turn.*
**[06:13] Sofia**
Great.
**[06:14] Sofia**
Um...
**[06:21] Noelle**
What?
**[06:24] Sofia**
Which... should... I... pick?
**[06:30] Sofia**
Nah, never mind.
**[06:39] Computer**
*Riz's turn.*
**[06:51] Computer**
*Sofia's turn.*
**[06:54] Sofia**
Right-o.
**[06:59] Sofia**
I don't know which to pick.
**[07:03] Noelle**
Again?
**[07:11] Noelle**
Nah, I'll go for this one.
**[07:16] Computer**
*Riz's turn.*
**[07:28] Noelle**
Come on, Support Vanity!
**[07:33] Noelle**
Aww!
**[07:35] Noelle**
This is too hard!
**[07:38] XR Student**
Well, they did choose "Expert."
**[07:46] Computer**
*Sofia's turn.*
**[08:00] Sofia**
This one!
**[08:04] Sofia**
I was wrong!
**[08:08] Computer**
*Riz's turn.*
**[08:22] Riz**
Dragon Vanity...
**[08:27] Noelle**
Yes!
**[08:28] Noelle**
Riz, you're the best!
**[08:30] XR Student**
No way!
**[08:40] Girls**
Hey, who are you rooting for?
**[08:43] Girls**
I'm rooting for Riz!
**[08:44] Girls**
I'm definitely rooting for Sofia!
**[08:47] Miracle**
Everybody's talking about them!
**[08:52] Chris**
Let's watch.
**[08:53] Noelle**
But...
**[08:55] Chris**
Let's just do it.
**[08:56] Computer**
*Sofia's turn.*
**[09:03] Computer**
*Riz's turn.*
**[09:06] Sofia**
Hey, if I win, will you do a collab with me?
**[09:11] Riz**
Sure.
**[09:12] Riz**
If you win.
**[09:19] Sofia**
Hey, you figured it out, huh?
**[09:22] Sofia**
The algorithm for the
random number generation.
**[09:25] Riz**
Yeah, I guess.
**[09:31] XR Student**
Amazing.
**[09:33] XR Student**
People have played Expert before,
but nobody's ever made a pair!
**[09:41] Miracle**
Random... what?
**[09:44] Chris**
The random number generation algorithm.
**[09:46] Chris**
A program that makes things random.
**[09:49] Miracle**
Huh...
**[09:50] Miracle**
And how does that help Riz win?
**[09:53] Chris**
I don't know.
**[09:57] Miracle**
I've got it!
**[09:59] Miracle**
Intuition!
**[10:00] Chris**
Intuition?
**[10:00] Miracle**
Yup!
**[10:02] Miracle**
I'm sending thought waves to
make Riz's intuition sharper!
**[10:06] Computer**
*Riz's turn.*
**[10:13] Noelle**
Go, Riz!
**[10:21] Miracle**
My thought waves worked!
**[10:24] Chris**
Riz's intuition is super sharp.
**[10:30] Miracle**
There it is!
**[10:40] Computer**
*Sofia's turn.*
**[10:44] Sofia**
Okay, all according to my calculations.
**[10:47] Sofia**
Now it's time to get started.
**[10:55] Noelle**
What's going on here?
**[11:11] Sofia**
Time to keep it up!
**[11:19] Riz**
*Why?*
**[11:22] Riz**
*At this rate...*
**[11:26] Sofia**
And the last one is...
**[11:28] Sofia**
There, right Principal?
**[11:34] Computer**
*Special!*
**[11:38] XR Student**
There it is! A special card!
**[11:57] Computer**
*Sofia wins!*
**[12:11] Sofia**
Riz?
**[12:13] Sofia**
Riz? Riz?
**[12:16] Sofia**
You okay?
**[12:17] Riz**
Why wouldn't I be?
**[12:19] Sofia**
It was fun, huh?
**[12:20] Sofia**
My chemical reaction with you
was, well, okay I guess.
**[12:25] Sofia**
By the way, you remember
your promise, right?
**[12:29] Riz**
Fine.
**[14:04] XR Student**
Wow, that was amazing.
**[14:06] XR Student**
I'm even more of a fan now!
**[14:12] XR Student**
You're so smart, Sofia!
You figured out the algorithm!
**[14:16] Sofia**
It was pretty fun.
**[14:18] Sofia**
Bye.
**[14:22] Riz**
I got some rare data.
**[14:25] Riz**
What's wrong?
**[14:28] Noelle**
Come with me for a bit.
**[14:34] Riz**
What's wrong?
**[14:45] Riz**
What was that for?
**[14:46] Noelle**
Where's yours?!
**[14:48] Riz**
Why?
**[14:49] Noelle**
Just think of it as vocal practice!
**[14:52] Riz**
What's gotten into you?
**[14:53] Noelle**
It's not good to let negative
feelings build up inside you.
**[14:57] Riz**
I'm not...
**[15:00] Noelle**
That battle really frustrated me.
**[15:04] Noelle**
What about you?
**[15:06] Riz**
Frustrated you?
**[15:08] Riz**
What do you mean?
**[15:13] Noelle**
You didn't feel anything
when you played Sofia?
**[15:17] Riz**
Hm...
**[15:21] Riz**
There was a feeling that my whole body was
going tense and I couldn't move like I wanted to.
**[15:26] Riz**
And I think my body got hot, too.
**[15:29] Riz**
But it wasn't like when
I was doing my performance.
**[15:34] Riz**
And for some reason,
I didn't want to look at Sofia.
**[15:39] Riz**
Yeah, and there was this feeling
like I was falling into an abyss!
**[15:44] Riz**
Isn't that amazing?
**[15:45] Noelle**
Then you really *were* frustrated!
**[15:48] Riz**
I... was?
**[15:50] Noelle**
That's right.
**[15:51] Noelle**
You felt really jealous of them,
**[15:53] Noelle**
or felt really pathetic all of a sudden,
like you wanted to run away...
**[15:56] Noelle**
But you didn't know what to do!
**[16:00] Noelle**
That's how I was before you talked to me.
**[16:03] Riz**
Really?
**[16:04] Noelle**
You don't believe me?
**[16:05] Noelle**
I'm a pro at this.
**[16:07] Riz**
A pro?
**[16:09] Riz**
But oh...
**[16:11] Riz**
So that's what this is. Huh.
**[16:16] Riz**
Ever since I was little,
people have told me I'm weird.
**[16:22] Riz**
Only my family treated me normally.
**[16:25] Riz**
But that didn't bother me.
**[16:28] Riz**
It was helpful that I could figure out how
things worked just by looking at them.
**[16:32] Riz**
And I could do anything I put my mind to.
**[16:35] Riz**
So I've never been frustrated at anything.
**[16:40] Noelle**
I see.
**[16:48] Riz**
I'm so frustrated!
**[16:54] Noelle**
That's the spirit!
**[16:55] Riz**
Next time, I'll win for sure!
**[16:58] Noelle**
Yeah, just like that!
**[17:01] Riz**
I feel better.
**[17:03] Noelle**
Right?
**[17:06] Noelle**
Looks like there was data hidden within
you that even you didn't know about.
**[17:12] Riz**
Yeah.
**[17:13] Riz**
It feels kind of strange.
**[17:15] Riz**
I've never let anybody see me like this.
**[17:19] Noelle**
What's wrong with that?
**[17:21] Noelle**
You've seen a lot of me at my worst, too.
**[17:27] Riz**
Yeah.
**[17:28] Riz**
I've seen a lot of the things you
wouldn't want people to see.
**[17:31] Noelle**
Hey, you don't have to put it like that!
**[17:39] Noelle**
It hurts to admit you're frustrated.
**[17:43] Noelle**
But it's a chance to think
about who you really are.
**[17:48] Noelle**
I see it as a chance to improve my skills.
**[17:53] Riz**
Yeah.
**[17:54] Noelle**
We get inspired by a lot
of different artists,
**[17:57] Noelle**
we help each other to improve,
**[17:59] Noelle**
and get better and better.
**[18:01] Noelle**
Once we're at our bests,
I'm sure we'll be amazing!
**[18:05] Riz**
Yeah.
**[18:07] Noelle**
I'll always be there if something happens.
**[18:09] Noelle**
Just trust in me and don't
worry about a thing!
**[18:14] Riz**
You're a pro, after all.
**[18:16] Noelle**
Enough about that!
**[18:19] Riz**
I'm just getting started.
**[18:22] Riz**
Yeah...
**[18:23] Riz**
I think I really am!

**[22:46] Halle**
I mean, she's part of BRT-5 now,
but she's still acting like an outsider, right?
**[22:52] Quan**
W-Well, I just joined.
**[22:55] Jessie**
I don't think we really need to be friends.
**[22:59] Halle**
That's enough!
**[23:01] Halle**
If we're gonna do this together,
let's have fun!
**[23:03] Halle**
I'm sure that would make the folks
watching at home happier, too!
**[23:06] Halle**
So when I see Quan being
down all by herself,
**[23:10] Halle**
I feel like I have to do something!
**[23:12] Quan**
I'm sorry.
**[23:14] Halle**
"Thank you."
**[23:17] Halle**
I'd be happier if you said thank you.
**[23:22] Quan**
Thank you, Halle!
**[23:28] Jessie**
It's time for lessons.
**[23:30] Jessie**
Let's go.
**[23:31] All**
Okay!
**[23:32] Halle**
Bye, everybody!
**[23:35] Quan**
Bye!
**[23:37] Jessie**
Bye.

**[02:08] (Flashback) Jessie**
I refuse to accept this.
**[02:10] (Flashback) Jessie**
You can't leave BRT5!
**[02:12] (Flashback) Jessie**
Or do the bonds between
us mean nothing to you?
**[02:16] (Flashback) Niska**
Listen to me. I...
**[02:18] (Flashback) Jessie**
I'll... never forgive you for this!
**[02:32] Niska**
It's done.
**[02:35] Halle**
Check this out!
**[02:37] Halle**
"The potential unit that
everyone's watching!"
**[02:39] Halle**
"Will these two be the ones who
win the final battle?" it says.
**[02:46] Halle**
They're at the top of the
"Rising Stars" rankings!
**[02:48] Ellie**
Oh, you're right.
**[02:50] Halle**
Maybe Niska will team up with
Miracle for the main event.
**[02:53] Sarah**
I don't care.
**[02:55] Halle**
You did a collab with her, too!
**[02:58] Sarah**
I'm not forming a unit with her!
**[03:01] Halle**
Yeah, you belong in BRT5, right?
**[03:04] Ellie**
Are you worried?
**[03:05] Quan/Jessie**
N-No way!
**[03:09] Quan**
I'm just going to focus on improving myself.
**[03:12] Ellie**
You're right.
**[03:13] Ellie**
The way you've been getting
better is a sight to behold.
**[03:17] Halle**
Yeah, right now you're Razor-Sharp Quan!
**[03:21] Halle**
Right?
**[03:22] Sarah**
But we can't have you getting
satisfied with this.
**[03:26] Quan**
Of course.
**[03:27] Halle**
You agree, right Jessie?
**[03:30] Halle**
It's like she's really a part of BRT5 now!
**[03:39] Jessie**
You're nowhere near as good as Niska.
**[03:51] Quan**
Jessie!
**[03:53] Jessie**
What?
**[03:55] Quan**
Tell me...
**[03:56] Quan**
What about me isn't as good as Niska?
**[04:01] Jessie**
Everything!
**[04:02] Jessie**
You'll never be a replacement for her.
**[04:06] Jessie**
I'm still planning on bringing her back.
**[04:09] Quan**
Are you going to see her?
**[04:11] Jessie**
Yes.
**[04:12] Quan**
Then...
**[04:15] Quan**
May I go with you?
**[04:18] Quan**
If I meet her, I might understand
what it is I'm lacking!
**[04:24] Quan**
Wait!
**[04:33] Ximena**
Hey.
**[04:35] Sofia**
What?
**[04:36] Ximena**
How'd your collab with Riz go?
**[04:38] Sofia**
It was fun.
**[04:40] Ximena**
That's all?
**[04:41] Sofia**
But there's somebody else I want
to do a collab with right now!
**[04:46] Ximena**
You mean...
**[04:47] Sofia**
Chris.
**[04:49] Ximena**
Oh.
**[04:55] Ximena**
Hey, have you decided who you'll pick next?
**[04:58] Zoe**
For what?
**[04:59] Ximena**
Your collab partner!
**[05:01] Zoe**
No.
**[05:02] Ximena**
Then what are you going to do for
your unit in the main event?
**[05:06] Zoe**
There's still time before that starts.
**[05:09] Ximena**
Then how about we...
**[05:11] Sofia**
See you later.
**[05:11] Ximena**
Oh, yeah.
**[05:13] Zoe**
Bye.
**[05:14] Ximena**
Uh, bye.
**[05:17] Student**
Oh, Ximena!
**[05:19] Ximena**
Hey, it's been forever! How've you been?
**[05:22] Student**
I've been great!
**[05:23] Student**
Hey, it's almost time for
the main event, right?
**[05:26] Student 2**
Score a win for our sakes too, okay?
**[05:28] Ximena**
Sure thing!
**[05:31] Riz**
Argh! I'm so frustrated!
**[05:34] Noelle**
Yeah, we need to improve before
we get to the main event.
**[05:41] Chris**
Miracle, what's wrong?
**[05:43] Chris**
Food poisoning?
**[05:44] Miracle**
No...
**[05:46] Miracle**
I was just wondering what Quan's up to.

*Niska...*
**[05:58] Students**
So, have you decided who
you'll be forming a unit with?
**[06:02] Students**
I want to know, too.
**[06:04] Jessie**
*Isn't that...*
**[06:09] Ximena**
Unbelievable!
**[06:12] Ximena**
You're Jessie from BRT5, right?
**[06:14] Jessie**
Y-Yeah...
**[06:15] Ximena**
I knew it!
**[06:17] Ximena**
The real, I mean...
**[06:17] Ximena**
You're so cute in the flesh...
I mean, in the virtual flesh!
**[06:22] Jessie**
Thanks...
**[06:23] Ximena**
What are you doing here?
**[06:25] Jessie**
Oh, um, personal stuff.
**[06:28] Ximena**
Checking out the other units?
**[06:29] Ximena**
Or scouting for a partner?
**[06:31] Ximena**
Hey, hey, what are you doing?
**[06:34] Ximena**
Are you just bored?
**[06:36] Jessie**
I am *not* bored!
**[06:38] Ximena**
Is there someplace you want to go?
**[06:40] Ximena**
Or are you looking for something?
**[06:42] Jessie**
I'm looking for someone.
**[06:44] Ximena**
Looking for someone?
**[06:45] Jessie**
Yeah.
**[06:46] Ximena**
Then I'll help you look.
**[06:49] Jessie**
Huh? Why?
**[06:52] Ximena**
I'm sure you'll find them faster that way!

**[07:06] Ximena**
Welp, we didn't find them.
**[07:10] Jessie**
Oh, right...
**[07:12] Jessie**
Why didn't I notice before?
**[07:17] Ximena**
A-maz-ing!
**[07:22] Ximena**
Hey, I don't think they're here either...
**[07:35] Ximena**
Did the person you're
looking for paint this?
**[07:39] Jessie**
Yeah.
**[07:40] Ximena**
It's fantastic!
**[07:42] Ximena**
Like you're right there with it!
**[07:43] Jessie**
But somehow I feel sad for it...
**[07:47] Ximena**
We never did find them.
**[07:51] Ximena**
Let's take a break.
**[07:53] Jessie**
There's no time for that.
**[07:55] Ximena**
Don't say that. Let's just go!
**[07:57] Jessie**
Wait!
**[08:01] Ximena**
Relax and give some virtual
carp some virtual fish food.
**[08:07] Jessie**
That painting...
**[08:09] Jessie**
I think that wolf is Niska herself.
**[08:14] Ximena**
Niska?
**[08:15] Ximena**
The one who used to be in BRT5?!
**[08:18] Jessie**
I still see her as a member, though.
**[08:21] Ximena**
I see.
**[08:23] Jessie**
BRT5 got its start with Ellie, Sarah and me.
**[08:26] Jessie**
We called ourselves BRT3 back then.
**[08:29] Jessie**
Then Halle and Niska joined
and we became BRT5.
**[08:34] Jessie**
Halle was an amazing artist,
but Niska was special.
**[08:38] Jessie**
When she became our leader,
we started getting so much better.
**[08:43] Jessie**
Her songs and her dances were both amazing.
**[08:45] Jessie**
She was incredible to watch, not just
for the audience, but for us as well.
**[08:52] Jessie**
With Niska in the unit, BRT5 could
become the greatest in the world.
**[08:57] Jessie**
We all believed that, for real.
**[09:00] Jessie**
But that day, Niska...
**[09:04] (Flashback) Jessie**
What?
**[09:06] (Flashback) Niska**
From now on, I want to be the
person I've decided to be.
**[09:10] (Flashback) Jessie**
I refuse to accept this.
**[09:11] (Flashback) Jessie**
You can't leave BRT5!
**[09:13] (Flashback) Jessie**
Or do the bonds between
us mean nothing to you?
**[09:17] (Flashback) Niska**
Listen to me. I...
**[09:20] (Flashback) Jessie**
I'll... never forgive you for this!
**[09:24] (Flashback) Niska**
Jessie...
**[09:26] (Flashback) Jessie**
I want BRT5 to be the only thing you love.
**[09:33] Jessie**
Niska could never give up on
her dream of being a designer.
**[09:39] Jessie**
So she left BRT5.
**[09:41] Jessie**
She chose to leave a flock of
sheep and become a lone wolf.
**[09:45] Jessie**
She betrayed us... without even
thinking about how I would feel!
**[09:51] Ximena**
Did you tell her that?
**[09:55] Ximena**
The way you feel, I mean.
**[09:57] Jessie**
I couldn't tell her that!
**[09:58] Jessie**
If she found out, I'd be
so embarrassed I'd die!
**[10:02] Ximena**
So do you plan to live the rest
of your life without telling her?
**[10:08] Ximena**
Don't you think you'll regret that?
**[10:12] Ximena**
If it were me, I'd handle things better.
**[10:16] Jessie**
I'm not like you.
**[10:19] Ximena**
I think I've figured it out.
**[10:21] Jessie**
Figured what out?
**[10:22] Ximena**
It's not Niska.
**[10:24] Ximena**
The one who's really
lonely... is you, Jessie.
**[10:27] Jessie**
You could never understand how I feel!
**[10:29] Ximena**
Sure I could.
**[10:30] Ximena**
Because I'm the same.
**[10:33] Ximena**
I'm lonely, too.
**[10:35] Jessie**
I don't believe that!
**[10:36] Ximena**
We're the same, but we're opposites.
**[10:39] Jessie**
What do you mean?
**[10:40] Ximena**
I've never wanted to form
a strong, deep connection.
**[10:44] Ximena**
I mean, it'd hurt if that person
ever betrayed you, right?
**[10:48] Ximena**
But I'm scared to be alone...
**[10:52] Ximena**
So I've always surrounded
myself with a crowd.
**[10:54] Ximena**
Surrounded by people who praise me.
**[10:57] Ximena**
Without ever trying to have a strong,
deep connection with anyone.
**[11:02] Jessie**
Is there someone you really
want to connect with?
**[11:06] Jessie**
Yeah.
**[11:08] Jessie**
So I want to invite them in a way
that means they can't refuse.
**[11:11] Jessie**
But I can't come up with a
good idea for how to do that.
**[11:15] Jessie**
Unbelievable!
**[11:17] Jessie**
I'm out of virtual fish food!
**[11:19] Jessie**
Didn't you just tell me you could
solve my problems better than me?
**[11:23] Jessie**
Sounds like you're a mess, too.
**[11:25] Ximena**
See?
**[11:26] Ximena**
So we are the same.
**[11:29] Jessie**
Maybe we are!
**[11:33] Ximena**
Hey, want to try it?
**[11:34] Jessie**
Try what?
**[11:36] Ximena**
A collab performance between
people who are the same,
**[11:40] Ximena**
but carry opposite kinds of loneliness!
**[11:42] Ximena**
It may work out better than you think!
**[11:45] Jessie**
Yeah, you're right.
**[11:47] Ximena**
Really?
**[11:48] Jessie**
But if you're going to do a collab with me,
**[11:52] Jessie**
then it better not be a crappy performance!
**[11:54] Ximena**
Okay, let's give it a try!

You're pretty good.
**[13:39] Ximena**
Thanks. If I'm good,
it's thanks to you, Jessie.
**[13:44] (Flashback) Ximena**
Don't you think you'll regret that?
**[13:48] Ximena**
If I don't tell them,
I'll regret it forever, right?
**[13:57] Sofia**
Ximena... huh?
**[14:01] Jessie**
Thank you, Ximena.
**[14:03] Jessie**
I've realized that I'll suffer much
more if I never tell her and never get
**[14:06] Jessie**
to connect with her again.
**[14:07] Ximena**
Yeah, that's right.
**[14:14] Jessie**
Niska, did you see that performance?
**[14:18] Jessie**
I want to share with you
how I'm feeling right now!
**[14:21] Jessie**
So come... to the place we both remember!
**[14:30] Jessie**
What are you doing here?
**[14:32] Ximena**
I'm going to watch and make
sure you're able to tell her.
**[14:35] Jessie**
I'm not a kid!
**[14:37] Jessie**
Niska!
**[14:39] Niska**
I was just thinking that
I had to talk to you, too.
**[14:42] Niska**
Tell me how you're feeling right now.
**[14:47] Ximena**
It's okay! Relax!
**[14:50] Jessie**
I saw your painting.
**[14:53] Niska**
I see.
**[14:54] Jessie**
A wolf and sheep, loneliness and comrades...
**[14:57] Jessie**
When I saw that painting,
I thought of the wolf... of you...
**[15:01] Jessie**
To be honest, I thought you both felt sad.
**[15:04] Jessie**
Because you couldn't be with your comrades.
**[15:06] Jessie**
But now...
**[15:09] Niska**
Has that changed?
**[15:10] Jessie**
You're noble. And beautiful.
**[15:14] Jessie**
Like that wolf. That's what I think.
**[15:18] Jessie**
I'll be honest!
**[15:20] Jessie**
That day, I tried to stop you because...
**[15:23] Jessie**
If BRT5 disbanded,
if I couldn't sing anymore...
**[15:31] Niska**
Tell me.
**[15:34] Jessie**
Then no one would pay
attention to me at all.
**[15:38] Jessie**
And that scared me...
**[15:43] Jessie**
"Why doesn't Niska understand how I feel?"
**[15:48] Jessie**
"Why won't she listen to me?"
**[15:52] Jessie**
That's what I was thinking.
**[15:56] Niska**
Yeah.
**[15:58] Jessie**
I got so scared when you left.
**[16:02] Jessie**
I couldn't help myself.
**[16:04] Niska**
Yeah.
**[16:06] Jessie**
If only you'd stayed, I wouldn't
have had to suffer like that...
**[16:11] Jessie**
That's why I told myself
I could never forgive you.
**[16:16] Niska**
I see.
**[16:18] Jessie**
But the person I'm really angry at is myself,
**[16:21] Jessie**
for being so petty that I couldn't
understand how you felt.
**[16:27] Jessie**
To be honest, I still want you
to quit being a designer.
**[16:31] Jessie**
But that's not just because I want BRT5
to be the greatest unit in the world.
**[16:36] Jessie**
It's because I want to do
more concerts with you!
**[16:39] Jessie**
Because I loved the time I spent
doing performances with you!
**[16:43] Jessie**
I want to perform with you!
**[16:50] Niska**
Jessie...
**[16:53] Ximena**
Unbelievable!
**[16:56] Ximena**
Bravo!
**[16:57] Jessie**
Quiet...
**[16:59] Niska**
The way I see it...
**[17:01] Niska**
The sheep with their flock are happy,
**[17:04] Niska**
but sometimes I want to be a lonely wolf.
**[17:07] Niska**
The way I see it...
**[17:09] Niska**
Only when you're alone can you
find the time to truly improve.
**[17:15] Jessie**
Yeah.
**[17:16] Niska**
The way I see it...
**[17:17] Niska**
Comrades and loneliness
are light and darkness.
**[17:20] Niska**
Only because there is darkness can you
realize how wonderful the light really is.
**[17:25] Jessie**
Niska...
**[17:26] Niska**
And the way I see it...
**[17:29] Niska**
The way you fought your fear
**[17:31] Niska**
and tried to accept the ideas of
someone who felt differently from you
**[17:35] Niska**
makes you very beautiful.
**[17:38] Jessie**
Th-That's...
**[17:40] Jessie**
something I realized when
I did my collab with Ximena.
**[17:42] Jessie**
Her performance showed me a new world.
**[17:48] Jessie**
I wondered if maybe you were trying to forge
a path to a new world on your own, Niska.
**[17:54] Jessie**
That you weren't obsessed with
a single place, like I was.
**[17:58] Jessie**
That you were trying to keep going forward.
**[18:01] Jessie**
She helped me realize that.
**[18:04] Niska**
I see.
**[18:05] Jessie**
Yeah.
**[18:06] Jessie**
I feel a lot better now.
**[18:08] Niska**
Yes, I feel wonderful, too.
**[18:11] Jessie**
Hey, Niska...
**[18:15] Jessie**
I'm sorry.
**[18:17] Niska**
So am I.
**[18:19] Niska**
I'm sorry.
**[18:21] Ximena**
I have to do my best, too!

and we're doing this for you!
**[20:19] Miracle**
I didn't say it like that!
**[20:22] Noelle**
"I was just wondering
what Quan's up to..."
**[20:26] Miracle**
Not you too, Noelle!
**[20:28] Riz**
And as your master of all
things data-related,
**[20:31] Riz**
I've gathered info on where
Quan's been appearing lately!
**[20:34] Noelle**
Appearing? She's not a wild monkey!
**[20:39] Riz**
The first sighting was at the ADEN
Cultural Festival, "Cheer Up!"
**[20:43] Riz**
Take a look!
**[20:45] Miracle**
Where is she?
**[20:47] Noelle**
Is Quan here?
**[20:49] Miracle**
Where? Where?
**[20:50] Miracle**
Where is Quan?
**[20:51] Riz**
That's all!
**[20:53] Miracle**
I hadn't found her yet, though!
**[20:56] Riz**
And here's another sighting from the
ADEN Cultural Festival, "Cheer Up!"
**[21:02] Miracle**
Who are these people?
**[21:03] Riz**
These girls posted online
that they "ran into Quan,"
**[21:08] Riz**
and "she seemed like she
was looking for someone."
**[21:12] Miracle**
Who was she looking for, I wonder?
**[21:15] Riz**
And next up is this!
**[21:17] Miracle**
Where is that?
**[21:18] Riz**
The virtual design exhibition
at the Culture Festival.
**[21:21] Riz**
I have information that she was sighted
looking at a painting of a wolf here.
**[21:25] Miracle**
A painting of a wolf?
**[21:27] Miracle**
What could that be?
**[21:28] Noelle**
For the moment, she seems to just
be enjoying the culture festival...
**[21:32] Riz**
That's not true at all!
**[21:34] Riz**
Next up is this!
**[21:36] Miracle**
Oh! The aurora!
**[21:38] Noelle**
What?
**[21:39] Miracle**
Was Quan looking for Niska?
**[21:44] Noelle**
Wait, tell me what's going on!
**[21:47] Riz**
And now this.
**[21:49] Miracle**
Where is this place?
**[21:51] Riz**
I don't really know myself,
but someone reported seeing Quan here!
**[21:57] Riz**
And we're done!
**[21:59] Miracle**
We didn't get to see Quan even once!
**[22:03] Noelle**
Yeah, I wonder what she's up to!
**[22:06] Miracle**
I'm sure she's working her best
to level up as an artist!
**[22:10] Riz**
Yup, yup, yup!
**[22:10] Miracle**
That's what I believe!
**[22:12] Noelle**
Yes, I'm sure you're right!
**[22:14] Miracle**
I'll do my best, too!
**[22:16] All**
Yeah!

What?
**[22:29] Ximena**
In this segment, I'll share with
you all the different types
**[22:32] Ximena**
of "Unbelievable!" I use in my daily life.
**[22:36] Sarah**
All the different types
of unbelievable? What?
**[22:39] Ximena**
Lesson 1!
**[22:40] Ximena**
I'm walking my dog and I happen to
look up and see the sky's filled with UFOs!
**[22:44] Ximena**
I shout "Unbelievable!" like this!
**[22:46] Sarah**
Huh?
**[22:47] Ximena**
Unbelievable!
**[22:50] Sarah**
Okay.
**[22:51] Ximena**
Lesson 2!
**[22:52] Ximena**
I meet a moron whose stupidity defies
comprehension, and shout "Unbelievable!"
**[22:58] Sarah**
Does that ever happen?
**[22:59] Ximena**
Unbelievable!
**[23:02] Sarah**
How was that different from the last one?
**[23:04] Ximena**
Lesson 3.
**[23:06] Ximena**
I'm eating dinner with my
beloved at a nice restaurant
**[23:08] Ximena**
when I find an engagement ring
in my piping-hot meat pie,
**[23:12] Ximena**
and shout "Unbelievable!"
**[23:14] Sarah**
Wouldn't that make the ring piping-hot, too?
**[23:17] Ximena**
Unbelievable!
**[23:20] Ximena**
How'd you like that one?
**[23:21] Sarah**
They were all the same.
**[23:23] Ximena**
No, no.
**[23:24] Ximena**
Unbelievable.
**[23:26] Sarah**
Just shut up.
**[23:27] Ximena**
And remember, you're gonna see some
unbelievable things at the VGAs!
**[23:32] Ximena**
Bye!
**[23:33] Ximena**
What's "unbelievable"
is how forced that last part was.

Look at all the butterflies!
**[02:14] Noelle**
So this is the Butterfly Fire
they do at the closing party?
**[02:18] Riz**
Yeah.
**[02:19] Riz**
Look. You drop the data you used
from Cheer Up and don't need
**[02:22] Riz**
any more onto the wings of
these virtual butterflies.
**[02:25] Noelle**
Yes, you gather it all in one
place and delete it, right?
**[02:29] Riz**
Yeah.
**[02:30] Riz**
It's like an offering bonfire, huh?
**[02:33] Noelle**
You don't understand what
she means at *all*, do you?
**[02:38] Miracle**
An offering of rice made
with veggies and fish?
**[02:40] Chris**
Nope.
**[02:42] Miracle**
Guess I was wrong!
**[02:44] Chris**
An offering bonfire is when you burn
things like religious talismans,
**[02:47] Chris**
or things that you have a
strong emotional bond to,
**[02:49] Chris**
to purify them and offer them to the gods.
**[02:52] Miracle**
I feel a lot smarter hearing that!
**[02:55] Noelle**
That's where that rumor came from, right?
**[02:57] Miracle**
Rumor?
**[02:58] Noelle**
The one that says if you write a wish
down and delete it, it will come true.
**[03:02] Riz**
They also say it can solve whatever
worries are on your mind, right?
**[03:09] Noelle**
Miracle...
**[03:10] Miracle**
No, I totally understood that one!
**[03:14] Riz**
Quit it with the comedy routine!
**[03:16] Chris**
Want to do it?
**[03:18] Miracle**
Let's do it!
**[03:21] Noelle**
There's only one thing we could
wish for right now, right?
**[03:25] Noelle**
That we win at the VGA main event.
**[03:30] Riz**
Of course. That we win with
an amazing performance!
**[03:33] Chris**
I want to win as PathTLive.
**[03:36] Chris**
What?
**[03:37] Riz**
You just come right out and say it.
**[03:40] Riz**
That's one of the good
things about you, Chris.
**[03:43] Noelle**
Yeah.
**[03:46] Miracle**
My wish is...
**[03:48] Miracle**
This and... this...
**[03:53] Miracle**
A-And that, too!
**[03:55] Miracle**
N-No, maybe this!
**[03:58] Noelle**
Wait, do you get to write more than one?
**[04:01] Noelle**
Aren't you supposed to just write one?
**[04:04] Miracle**
Do you have to write just one?
**[04:07] Riz**
There's always one kid who makes a bunch
of wishes at Tanabata and stuff, right?
**[04:11] Noelle**
Oh, yeah.
**[04:12] Miracle**
What do I do? If I can only have one...
**[04:15] Jua**
What, you haven't written yours yet?
**[04:18] Miracle**
Jua!
**[04:19] Jua**
And Thea, too!
**[04:20] Thea**
Don't make it sound like
I'm just your hanger-on.
**[04:22] Jua**
And our butterfly!
**[04:26] Riz**
"Our"? I only see one.
**[04:28] Jua**
You're so sharp!
**[04:29] Jua**
That's right!
**[04:30] Jua**
The two of us share a butterfly!
'cause we're best friends!
**[04:34] Jua**
Right?
**[04:35] Thea**
Most girls who say they're
best friends, actually aren't.
**[04:39] Jua**
Sure, but who was it who
wrote it together with me?
**[04:43] Jua**
It was her!
**[04:45] Noelle**
Those two are friends, but in a weird way.
**[04:50] Miracle**
One butterfly, huh?
**[04:59] Jessie**
It's beautiful.
**[05:01] Niska**
Aren't you going to write anything, Jessie?
**[05:03] Jessie**
No.
**[05:04] Jessie**
I've already dropped all my
feelings onto you, Niska!
**[05:16] Niska**
Did you know that they say the
butterfly that flies highest
**[05:21] Niska**
has the strongest wish attached to it?
**[05:24] Jessie**
What? It's just data, right?
**[05:27] Niska**
Yes. Just data.
**[05:31] Niska**
Everything you see here is just data.
**[05:36] Niska**
But...
**[05:37] Niska**
We put so much of our hearts into it.
**[05:41] Niska**
Into this world...
**[05:52] (Flashback) Jessie**
You're nowhere near as good as Niska.
**[05:54] (Flashback) Jessie**
You'll never be a replacement for her.
**[05:57] Quan**
*I've tried to do my best, as best I could.*
**[06:00] Quan**
*But inside of me, there's nothing at all...*
**[06:04] Quan**
* I don't have any feelings to put*
* into this butterfly, not a single one...*
**[06:22] Miracle**
It's not working!
**[06:23] Miracle**
I *can't* narrow them down to one!
**[06:25] Miracle**
I ended up with like a dozen!
**[06:28] Noelle**
Wait, are you going to send up all of these?
**[06:30] Riz**
The Butterfly Fire will be nothing
but Miracle's butterflies.
**[06:37] Chris**
This is Miracle's heart...
**[06:39] Jua**
Just pick something, why don't you?
**[06:42] Thea**
You're out of time.
**[06:43] Miracle**
Oh crap, oh crap!
**[06:45] Miracle**
I'll go sit by myself for a while
and come up with something!
**[06:50] Noelle**
She's acting weird.
**[06:51] Chris**
Yeah. This isn't like her.
**[06:54] Riz**
Yeah.
**[06:55] Miracle**
Miracle never lets anything
really get her down.
**[06:59] Riz**
And does she realize...
**[07:01] Riz**
It's not the butterflies she's
running out of time with,
**[07:04] Riz**
but the main event?
**[07:09] Noelle**
What's she going to do with Quan?
**[07:11] Jua**
I don't quite know what's going on,
**[07:13] Jua**
but that stuff with PathTLive and Quan
is all messed up in her head, I bet.
**[07:18] Jua**
She sure is a handful!
**[07:21] Thea**
Your head's more of a mess than
anybody else's, isn't it?
**[07:25] Miracle**
PathTLive, Quan...
**[07:27] Miracle**
PathTLive, Quan...
**[07:30] Miracle**
Quan...
**[07:34] Miracle**
I don't know what to do at all!
**[07:42] Miracle**
That's right! At times like this...
I can get help from AI-chan!
**[07:53] [SONG] Song**
If you could be reincarnated,
what kind of you would you like to be?
**[08:00] [SONG] Song**
If that's what you wish for,
I'll cast a little spell
**[08:05] [SONG] Song**
If I were God, maybe I'd
make the whole world one
**[08:12] [SONG] Song**
But you know, that'd just
be a boring fairytale
**[08:19] [SONG] Song**
I can hear your voice; don't forget your wish
**[08:24] [SONG] Song**
The sparkle that was created from
our uncertain selves being born
**[08:31] [SONG] Song**
Let's let it resonate loud and far
**[08:34] [SONG] Song**
Even if we're far apart
**[08:37] [SONG] Song**
I want to believe in the
future projected in your eyes
**[08:44] [SONG] Song**
I won't be afraid anymore;
I'll transcend the reason I was born
**[08:50] [SONG] Song**
I'll reach out toward tomorrow
and change the world
**[08:59] [SONG] Song**
Let's search for our destinies and link
**[09:05] [SONG] Song**
I connect with you
**[09:22] AI**
Looks like something's bugging you!
**[09:25] AI**
But you know, you have connections
that are yours alone!
**[09:31] Miracle**
Mine alone...
**[09:33] Miracle**
Yeah, you're right.
**[09:35] Miracle**
I had them. I was connected with Quan...
**[09:39] Miracle**
But that connection was... well... broken.
**[09:44] Miracle**
It made me so sad... but like you said,
**[09:48] Miracle**
I have connections that are mine alone...
**[09:52] Miracle**
So I'm sure Quan has connections
that are hers alone, too.
**[09:58] Miracle**
Even if our connection is gone,
she's still connected to someone else.
**[10:04] Miracle**
And I don't want to ruin that.
**[10:07] AI**
I see.
**[10:09] AI**
Right now, you're a chrysalis.
**[10:11] Miracle**
A chrysalis?
**[10:12] AI**
Yeah.
**[10:13] AI**
Just like this world!
**[10:18] AI**
A chrysalis is covered by a hard shell,
but inside, it's a big mushy mess!
**[10:23] AI**
It's dissolved and mixed up
everything it used to be,
**[10:26] AI**
and it's trying to decide what to be next.
**[10:30] AI**
Don't you think it's the same as this world?
**[10:33] AI**
Soft, and capable of becoming anything!
**[10:37] AI**
That's the virtual world!
**[10:41] AI**
But it can't be soft and
squishy forever, right?
**[10:47] AI**
You can't stay in your shell forever, right?
**[10:52] AI**
At some point, you'll have to go outside.
**[10:55] AI**
And when that happens,
**[10:56] AI**
you have to decide what form you'll take,
and then break out of your shell.
**[11:00] AI**
Or you won't be able to
go to the next world.
**[11:04] Miracle**
I'm a chrysalis?
**[11:09] Miracle**
What's inside me... the next me...
**[11:18] Miracle**
Is all this what's inside me?
**[11:42] Miracle**
Quan?
**[11:46] Miracle**
Quan!
**[12:02] Miracle**
Why are you crying?
**[12:08] Quan**
Miracle?
**[12:11] Miracle**
This is your butterfly, right?
**[12:16] Quan**
Oh, no... You saw it...
**[12:19] Miracle**
Um, Quan... Let's...
**[12:26] Miracle**
Let's do a collab together!
**[12:33] Miracle**
Why?
**[12:35] Quan**
Because I'm not doing anything right.
**[12:39] Quan**
I need to get better at doing performances.
**[12:42] Quan**
I need to do better at everything!
**[12:45] Quan**
And being in BRT5 is the
best way to do that!
**[12:50] Quan**
If I'm a part of that team, I can be a virtual
artist that doesn't cause trouble for anybody.
**[12:56] Quan**
So...
**[12:57] Quan**
I'm sorry.
**[12:59] Quan**
I'm going.
**[13:03] Miracle**
No!
**[13:05] Miracle**
Don't go, Quan!
**[13:07] Miracle**
Look at me, Quan!
**[13:17] Miracle**
Yes, BRT5's performances are amazing!
**[13:21] Miracle**
But... But then...
**[13:27] Miracle**
I'll show you something that's
way, way, *way* cooler than BRT5!
**[13:39] Miracle**
*Now I understand...*
**[13:41] Miracle**
*I want to perform with Quan.*
**[13:44] Miracle**
* I want to be a part of*
* PathTLive with everyone.*
**[13:47] Miracle**
* It's not enough for me to be the*
* only person who thinks that.*
**[13:51] Miracle**
* I need to be someone that Quan...*
* and everybody else...*
**[13:54] Miracle**
*can't take their eyes off for a moment!*
**[13:58] Miracle**
*It's time to go... to fly...*
**[14:01] Miracle**
*To the next world!*

She's so dazzling...
**[16:20] Quan**
I don't want to run from her light!
**[16:32] Quan**
Miracle's butterfly?
**[16:49] Quan**
Um...
**[16:50] Halle**
What is it?
**[16:51] Halle**
Why are you so out of breath?
**[16:54] Quan**
Um, I...
**[16:56] Niska**
Hey.
**[16:57] Ellie**
Niska...
**[16:58] Sarah**
And Jessie, too.
**[17:00] Niska**
Can I say something before Quan speaks?
**[17:07] Niska**
I want you to let me join BRT5 again.
**[17:17] Niska**
How about it?
**[17:20] Ellie**
The answer is...
**[17:22] Sarah**
Yes, of course!
**[17:30] Niska**
Sorry to interrupt.
**[17:32] Niska**
So, what will you do?
**[17:36] Halle**
Of course, you're part of BRT5 right?
**[17:39] Halle**
Oh, I guess since it's six
of us, we're BRT6 now!
**[17:42] Ellie**
Halle!
**[17:43] Quan**
Um, I'm sorry.
**[17:45] Jessie**
You don't need to apologize.
**[17:48] Jessie**
Just come out and say it.
**[17:52] Quan**
I'm quitting BRT5!
**[17:58] Auris**
* Now, it's time for the fifteen contestants of*
* the VGA main event to announce their units.*
**[18:09] Miracle**
We're entering the main event as PathTLive!
**[18:21] Ellie**
We're BRT5!
**[18:30] Auris**
*And the other students...*
**[18:33] Miracle**
Are they also forming a five-person unit?
**[18:36] Jua**
Hey, there! We're forming a unit!
**[18:42] Riz**
Well, they did seem like good friends.
**[18:46] Jua**
We're VICONIC! Nice to meetcha!
**[18:52] Sofia**
I know...
**[18:59] Sofia**
That the three of us can win for sure.
**[19:02] Sofia**
I guarantee it!
**[19:05] Sofia**
Zoe, Ximena, Sofia.
**[19:07] Sofia**
The three of us are 3DM8!
**[19:16] Quan**
Did she just invite them now?
**[19:18] Noelle**
Looks like it.
**[19:20] Miracle**
I-It's that easy?!
**[19:23] Riz**
They're nothing like us,
after all the problems we had.
**[19:25] Quan**
S-Sorry...
**[19:27] Miracle**
Hey, Riz!
**[19:31] Auris**
*PathTLive, BRT5, VICONIC, 3DM8...*
**[19:38] Auris**

***SIGN*** but can you do it just in case?
**[21:48] SIGN**
but can you do it just in case?
**[21:49] Ada**
Very well.
**[21:51] Ada**
Hmm... I'm afraid the way I spoke
just now was extremely arrogant.
**[21:56] Ada**
The world is a big place, and there's
more than one world, anyway.
**[21:59] Ada**
I see myself as someone whose performances
are watched in more worlds than most,
**[22:05] Ada**
so if most people haven't heard
of me, then that's unfortunate,
**[22:10] Ada**
but also unavoidable.
**[22:14] Ada**
I'm sorry, what were we talking about?
***SIGN*** Oh, I'd asked you to introduce yourself.
**[22:18] SIGN**
Oh, I'd asked you to introduce yourself.
**[22:21] Ada**
That's right.
**[22:22] Ada**
An introduction is a chance
for you to get to know one another.
**[22:26] Ada**
I'm sure you're all aware of how important
it is to "get off on the right foot."
**[22:31] Ada**
But have you ever given any thought
to what that phrase really means?
**[22:36] Ada**
For example, take the phrase
"All's well that ends well."
**[22:42] Ada**
This is said to come from a play
by the famous William Shakespeare,
**[22:46] Ada**
and there are countless similar,
but slightly different phrases
**[22:50] Ada**
that each have their own
distinct meanings...
**[22:56] Ada**
I'm sorry, what were we talking about again?
**[22:59] [SONG] SIGN**
I was hoping you could introduce yourself...
**[22:59] SIGN**
I was hoping you could introduce yourself...
***SIGN*** ...But never mind.
**[23:02] SIGN**
...But never mind.
**[23:03] Ada**
Ask your first question, then.
**[23:06] Ada**
You were going to ask me ten
questions for this segment, yes?
***SIGN*** Alright, I'll go ahead and ask them.
**[23:11] SIGN**
Alright, I'll go ahead and ask them.
***SIGN*** If you have a morning routine,
**[23:13] SIGN**
If you have a morning routine,
***SIGN*** please tell me about it.
**[23:15] SIGN**
please tell me about it.
**[23:16] Ada**
A morning routine?
**[23:19] Ada**
Let me confirm something.
***SIGN*** What?
**[23:22] SIGN**
What?
**[23:24] Ada**
"If you have a morning routine,
please tell me about it."
**[23:27] Ada**
That was the question, correct?
***SIGN*** That's right.
**[23:28] SIGN**
That's right.
**[23:31] Ada**
Hm...
**[23:33] Ada**
Well, I don't have one!

What's all that stuff, Jua?

A trip? To where?

All of a sudden?

**[00:02] Miracle**
* I was upset about what was*
* happening with Quan when...*
**[00:05] (Flashback) AI**
And when that happens,
**[00:06] (Flashback) AI**
you have to decide what
form you'll take next,
**[00:08] (Flashback) AI**
and then break out of your shell.
**[00:09] Miracle**
* With a little help from AI-chan,*
* I worked up the courage to go see Quan.*
**[00:13] (Flashback) Miracle**
I'll show you something that's
way, way, *way* cooler than BRT5!
**[00:20] Miracle**
*And then Chris made me a new song.*
***SIGN*** Miracle, I made a song.
**[00:25] Miracle**
And Quan came back to PathTLive.
**[00:29] Miracle**
And the main event unit battles
finally started, too!
**[00:32] Miracle**
I'll do my best to get first place,
so watch me, okay?
**[02:06] Sign**

**[02:07] Auris**
* I will now announce the*
* order for the performances*
**[02:12] Auris**
* in the Virtual Grid Awards*
* ADEN seed main event.*
**[02:19] Auris**
* The first unit will be VICONIC,*
* featuring Jua and Thea.*
**[02:27] Jua**
Let's make sure their eyes
are all locked on us!
**[02:31] Thea**
Jua, be quiet.
**[02:34] Auris**
* And the next unit will be 3DM8,*
* starring Sofia, Zoe, and Ximena.*
**[02:47] Miracle**
*Are we... last?*
**[02:50] Auris**
* The third unit will be Noelle, Chris,*
* Riz, Quan, and Miracle, with PathTLive!*
**[02:59] Miracle**
O-Okay!
**[03:08] Chris**
Don't worry about it.
**[03:12] Auris**
* And the fourth unit will be BRT5:*
* Niska, Jessie, Ellie, Sarah, and Halle.*
**[03:24] Auris**
* I've chosen this order so that each unit*
* is able to perform in top condition.*
**[03:31] Auris**
* VICONIC will do their performance*
* one week from now.*
**[03:34] Auris**
*After that, one unit will perform each day.*
**[03:38] Auris**
* I'm expecting a wonderful*
* performance from all of you.*
**[03:44] Jua**
I can't wait!
**[03:46] Jua**
Hey, we could even do our
song right now, couldn't we?
**[03:50] Thea**
Even if we did,
we wouldn't get a score for it.
***SIGN*** Well, we can call it a warm up!
**[03:53] Miracle**
*Those two aren't nervous at all!*
***SIGN*** We can't just stand here!
**[03:59] Noelle**
We need to come up with an
idea for our performance.
**[04:01] Noelle**
Who has a suggestion?
**[04:04] Chris**
I do.
**[04:06] Chris**
I want to write a song.
**[04:07] Chris**
The perfect song for all five of us.
**[04:10] Miracle**
That's great!
**[04:12] Riz**
Chris will make us a song, huh?
**[04:15] Noelle**
I can't wait!
**[04:17] Chris**
There's not a lot of time before we perform.
**[04:19] Chris**
Can you help me, Riz?
**[04:21] Riz**
Of course.
**[04:23] Noelle**
So the rest of us will plan the
choreography and formation, then!
**[04:27] Quan**
I'll do my best!
**[04:28] Miracle**
Let's come up with the
best choreography ever!
**[04:36] Quan**
Um...
**[04:37] Noelle**
Quan,
**[04:39] Noelle**
you have extremely pretty skin!
**[04:45] Noelle**
What's your usual routine?
**[04:47] Quan**
I use a face wash, I guess...
**[04:50] Noelle**
That's all to get skin like this?!
**[04:52] Noelle**
I can't believe it!
**[04:54] Noelle**
Tell me all the secrets to beautiful skin!
**[04:57] Quan**
Miracle, help!
**[04:59] Miracle**
* I feel bad for Quan, but I've never*
* seen Noelle this excited.*
**[05:06] Noelle**
I wish we'd met sooner.
**[05:10] Quan**
Yeah...
**[05:11] Miracle**
I know!
**[05:13] Miracle**
What do you two think
about VICONIC and 3DM8?
**[05:17] Quan**
3DM8 teamed up pretty easily considering
they'd never done a collab together before.
**[05:22] Noelle**
Yeah.
**[05:23] Noelle**
I can't even imagine what kind
of performance they'll do.
**[05:27] Noelle**
But there's a reason Sofia chose Zoe
and Ximena. They're both top talents.
**[05:32] Miracle**
And VICONIC?
**[05:33] Quan**
The two of them were good
friends to begin with, right?
**[05:38] Noelle**
Jua and Thea. They're both great
performers, and good friends.
**[05:42] Noelle**
I expect their performance to be the
one where they're the most balanced.
**[05:47] Noelle**
We need to be just as good.
**[05:50] Jua**
What, did you call us?
**[05:52] Miracle**
Jua? What are you doing here?
**[05:55] Jua**
What else?
**[05:59] Jua**
We came to hang out!
**[06:02] Jua**
We're taking a vacation!
**[06:06] Jua**
Roar!
**[06:07] Jua**
Hey, you know any hot spots?
**[06:12] Noelle**
You're really here sightseeing,
and not to scout us out?
**[06:16] Jua**
That's what I said, isn't it?
**[06:20] Jua**
Uh-oh, gotta go!
**[06:22] Miracle**
You already know where you're going?
**[06:24] Noelle**
What was the point of asking us, then?
**[06:26] Jua**
See you later, Miracle and friends!
**[06:31] Noelle**
Why do you think they came here?
**[06:33] Miracle**
I don't know...
**[06:40] Maids**
Okay! Kyun-kyun!
**[06:46] Jua**
It's so cute!
**[06:54] Jua**
What do you think?
**[06:57] Thea**
Listen, what are we doing, exactly?
**[06:59] Jua**
Getting input for our song.
**[07:02] Thea**
We're just playing around.
**[07:04] Jua**
It's no fun sitting in a booth making
music with a frown on your face, right?
**[07:09] Jua**
And it's fun to go out and
do things once in a while.
**[07:13] Jua**
You know what they say, right?
"Play is how humans learn."
**[07:19] Thea**
Who says that?
**[07:21] Jua**
I just thought it up!
**[07:25] Thea**
Listen, there's not much time
left before the main event.
**[07:28] Jua**
Sure, the main event is important.
**[07:31] Jua**
But I want to be someone strong,
undefeated by harsh training,
**[07:36] Jua**
or the main event,
**[07:38] Jua**
and who can enjoy herself
to the fullest at times like this!
**[07:43] Thea**
What are you—
**[07:44] Jua**
Now, what outfit to try on next?
**[07:52] Students**
Oh!
**[07:53] Students**
I want this!
**[07:54] Students**
It's expensive!
**[07:55] Students**
How much?
**[07:56] Students**
It's expensive!
**[08:00] Students**
But maybe if I put in an extra
shift at my job, I could buy it?
**[08:15] (Flashback) Thea**
What's wrong?
**[08:16] (Flashback) Jua**
There are some really cool shoes, but...
**[08:20] (Flashback) Thea**
They're sold out.
**[08:23] (Flashback) Jua**
Yeah.
**[08:25] (Flashback) Thea**
Don't tell me you're going to
go around looking for them?
**[08:28] (Flashback) Jua**
But I've never liked shoes this much before!
**[08:32] (Flashback) Jua**
And I'm sure their size and
shape is perfect for my feet!
**[08:36] (Flashback) Jua**
This has to be fate, right?
**[08:39] (Flashback) Thea**
Fate or not, you can't buy
them if they're sold out.
**[08:42] (Flashback) Thea**
Come on, let's look for
some other practice shoes.
**[08:45] (Flashback) Jua**
Wait, wait, wait!
**[08:47] (Flashback) Jua**
I'll try and find a place
where they're in stock!
**[08:49] (Flashback) Jua**
I want these!
**[08:53] (Flashback) Thea**
It's not worth missing out on
practice time for them, right?
**[08:59] (Flashback) Jua**
I want to dance in these shoes so bad...
**[09:13] (Flashback) Jua**
You're late.
**[09:16] (Flashback) Thea**
Here.
**[09:18] (Flashback) Jua**
What's this?
**[09:20] (Flashback) Thea**
Just open it.
**[09:24] (Flashback) Jua**
These are...
**[09:26] (Flashback) Thea**
An early birthday present.
**[09:34] (Flashback) Jua**
Thea!
**[09:36] (Flashback) Jua**
Thank you!
**[09:38] (Flashback) Jua**
I'll take good care of them!
**[09:40] (Flashback) Thea**
I'd rather you practiced in them till the
soles wore off and the sides were full of holes.
**[09:46] (Flashback) Jua**
Of course!
**[09:50] (Flashback) Jua**
Just watch.
**[09:51] (Flashback) Jua**
I came up with the next performance
I'm going to upload.
**[10:26] Thea**
Jua.
**[10:28] Thea**
Why don't you get a new pair of shoes?
**[10:32] Jua**
Should I?
**[10:33] Jua**
They still fit fine. It'll be okay.
**[10:37] Jua**
And they're like a good luck charm, anyway.
**[10:40] Thea**
A good luck charm?
**[10:42] Jua**
The second I put these shoes on,
my videos went viral and I got famous!
**[10:46] Jua**
It was fate when I found them,
**[10:49] Jua**
and now they're a good luck charm
that helps me step up my game!
**[10:54] Jua**
Well, it's all thanks to you
for buying them for me.
**[11:01] Thea**
No, it's because...
**[11:07] Ellie**
BRT5 will be doing the last
performance during the unit battle!
**[11:13] Ellie**
The event will start in a week.
**[11:16] Ellie**
We'll be spending that time practicing to
give you the best show we possibly can!
**[11:22] Halle**
We'll be giving you the hottest
performance of them all!
**[11:26] Halle**
Look forward to it, everyone!
**[11:28] Sarah**
Of course, the ones to win first place...
**[11:31] Jessie**
will be us, BRT5.
**[11:34] Niska**
We hope the song we sing for
you can reach many people...
**[11:41] Ellie**
So keep on supporting BRT5!
**[11:45] All**
Thanks!
**[11:48] Students**
I really like Ellie from BRT5.
**[11:52] Students**
She's good.
**[11:54] Students**
But you know... VICONIC, was it?
**[11:57] Students**
They've got a singer named Jua who just
kind of flails around on stage, right?
**[12:02] Students**
I know what you mean.
**[12:03] Students**
I don't get why she has so many linkers.
**[12:07] Students**
Everyone else is getting better
with each performance.
**[12:10] Students**
But she never changes.
**[12:13] Students**
That's right.
**[12:14] Students**
I think I could do what she does.
**[12:17] Students**
You sure could.
**[12:19] Thea**
Excuse me.
**[12:21] Thea**
She works a lot harder than most people.
**[12:23] Thea**
And her songs and choreography are
all top-level, and unique to her.
**[12:29] Thea**
If you can't understand how
good her performances are,
**[12:33] Thea**
you must be blind!
**[12:35] Jua**
What are you doing?
**[12:37] Thea**
We're leaving.
**[12:38] Jua**
Now?!
**[12:40] Thea**
Of course we are!
**[12:42] Jua**
But we just got here!
**[12:48] Jua**
Thea, what's wrong?
**[12:50] Thea**
Nothing.
**[12:57] Jua**
Thea.
**[13:02] Thea**
They were saying all those things about
you when they don't know anything.
**[13:06] Thea**
It made me mad.
**[13:08] Jua**
Is that all?
**[13:09] Thea**
They were making fun of you!
**[13:12] Jua**
That happens all the time, right?
**[13:14] Jua**
You always tell me it's a waste of time
to think about the haters, right?
**[13:19] Jua**
And if they're talking about me,
that means I'm getting some buzz.
**[13:24] Jua**
That makes me happy.
**[13:28] Jua**
So if it bothered you,
**[13:30] Jua**
that's probably because it triggered
something else in your heart, right?
**[13:37] Jua**
Tell me, if you're up for talking about it.
**[13:41] Thea**
I actually had given up a long time ago.
**[13:45] Thea**
New artists keep coming out all the time,
**[13:47] Thea**
and they're all competing to get
famous and fighting for the top.
**[13:52] Thea**
It was always my dream to be a virtual artist,
but once I actually started it,
**[13:56] Thea**
I realized what the reality was.
**[13:58] Thea**
So no matter how many people
said they liked my music,
**[14:02] Thea**
I never got my hopes up.
**[14:03] Thea**
Somewhere in my heart, I'd given up.
**[14:07] Thea**
But I'm still able to be an artist...
because I met you.
**[14:13] Thea**
You keep practicing no matter what.
You never doubt yourself.
**[14:18] Thea**
Having someone like that next to me
**[14:21] Thea**
made me feel like I could continue my dream.
**[14:24] Thea**
That's how important you are
to me. You're my light.
**[14:31] Thea**
So it makes me angry when
somebody insults the effort you put in,
**[14:36] Thea**
no matter who they are.
**[14:37] Jua**
Thea...
**[14:39] Thea**
Well, our personalities are total opposites,
**[14:42] Thea**
and you're always doing whatever
you feel like at any given moment.
**[14:46] Thea**
Most of what you do,
you don't even think about,
**[14:48] Thea**
and there's a lot about
you I don't understand.
**[14:50] Jua**
Huh? Am I being
complimented or insulted here?
**[14:56] Jua**
Listen...
**[15:00] Jua**
I made a song for the unit battle.
**[15:04] Jua**
I figured it might be fun to sing a song
like this during our performance, but...
**[15:12] Thea**
But?
**[15:12] Jua**
The main event's the big show
we've been working for, right?
**[15:16] Jua**
I wasn't sure what you'd say
if I wanted to do a song
**[15:21] Jua**
that I made all by myself
without asking you...
**[15:25] Jua**
But would you at least listen to it?
**[15:28] Thea**
Sure.
**[15:31] Thea**
But first...
**[15:33] Thea**
There's something I want to show you.
**[15:37] Jua**
This is...
**[15:39] Thea**
Remember when we did our
collab performances?
**[15:42] Thea**
When you were doing yours,
**[15:44] Thea**
it bothered me, 'cause I felt like I should've
been the one to be up there with you.
**[15:50] Thea**
I've been with you longer than anyone.
I know you better than anyone.
**[15:54] Thea**
We've competed for so long.
**[15:56] Thea**
I thought it would always be that way...
**[15:58] Thea**
But it couldn't.
**[16:00] Thea**
It's not that way at all anymore.
**[16:06] Thea**
So...
**[16:13] Thea**
This time, I want to stand on stage beside you.
Not as a rival, but as a partner.
**[16:19] Jua**
Yeah.
**[16:21] Jua**
So we both really like each other!
**[16:23] Thea**
Yeah, I guess.
**[16:25] Jua**
Okay, time to get ready then!
**[16:29] Jua**
Let's bring everyone the
best performance we can!
***SIGN*** The first group was incredible!
***SIGN*** They were in perfect harmony!
***SIGN*** I loved the outfits!
**[18:22] Jua**
We really are the best unit, aren't we?
**[18:26] Thea**
Out of how many people?
**[18:28] Jua**
Hm...
**[18:30] Jua**
We're the best in the world!
**[18:33] Thea**
No. We're the best in the universe.
**[18:37] Jua**
Want to do a stream in space, then?
**[18:47] Auris**
These are the connections I wanted to see...
**[18:50] Auris**
I'm so happy I get to see
something of this level...
**[18:56] Ada**
They're too in sync.
**[18:59] Ada**
If this is the first group, which sets
the standard for all the others...
***SIGN*** I'm sure you'll like our performance.

**[20:45] Chris**
Hello, I'm Chris.
**[20:47] Jua**
And I'm Jua!
**[20:48] Chris**
We're the producers for PathTLive and VICONIC,
so we write the music and lyrics.
**[20:54] Chris**
Today we're going to talk about
our approach to making music.
**[20:58] Chris**
Thank you for having us.
**[21:00] Jua**
Thank you for having us!
**[21:01] Chris**
So Jua, how do you usually write your songs?
**[21:06] Jua**
Hm, I've usually got a hard deadline,
**[21:11] Jua**
so I kind of rush it out and
then dash off some lyrics.
**[21:15] Chris**
Rush and dash?
**[21:18] Jua**
Yup.
**[21:18] Jua**
What about you?
**[21:19] Chris**
I usually rush and dash, too.
**[21:24] Jua**
You rush?
**[21:26] Chris**
And dash.
**[21:28] Jua**
Are the two of us...
**[21:30] Chris**
We're alike.
**[21:31] Jua**
I *knew* it!
**[21:32] Jua**
From the minute I laid eyes on you,
I knew we'd get along!
**[21:36] Chris**
We're two peas in a pod!
**[21:38] Jua**
A pod! Oh wow, we're in a pod!
**[21:41] Jua**
So, what kind of music do you like, Chris?
**[21:45] Chris**
You mean, genre-wise?
**[21:46] Jua**
Yeah.
**[21:46] Jua**
Rock, or hip-hop. Or classical.
**[21:50] Chris**
Heavy metal, lately.
**[21:52] Jua**
Heavy metal.
**[21:54] Chris**
Yes.
**[21:55] Jua**
Chris...
**[21:57] Jua**
Me, too!
**[21:59] Jua**
We really are alike!
**[22:02] Chris**
We're in a pod.
**[22:03] Jua**
Okay, okay...
**[22:05] Jua**
What's your favorite animal?
**[22:06] Chris**
Naked mole rat.
**[22:08] Jua**
Same!
**[22:09] Jua**
Favorite fruit?
**[22:11] Chris**
Rambutan.
**[22:11] Jua**
Wow! Mine, too!
**[22:13] Jua**
What's going on here? We're not
peas in a pod, we're soul twins!
**[22:17] Chris**
Perhaps we are.
**[22:18] Jua**
Okay... Okay...
**[22:20] Jua**
Your favorite sea animal is a
deep sea spider, right?
**[22:24] Chris**
No. Blotchy swell shark.
**[22:24] Sign**
Blotchy swell shark
**[22:26] Chris**
Blotchy swell shark.
**[22:26] Sign**
Blotchy swell shark
**[22:28] Jua**
Blotchy swell shark?
**[22:30] Chris**
Yes.
**[22:31] Jua**
Well, we can't be the exact same, right?
**[22:34] Jua**
But your favorite Japanese monster
is the Suikazura, right?
**[22:37] Chris**
Tankororin
**[22:37] Chris**
No, the Tankororin.
**[22:38] Jua**
The Tankororin?
**[22:39] Chris**
Tankororin
**[22:39] Chris**
The Tankororin.
**[22:42] Jua**
I see. I see.
**[22:44] Jua**
But um... Japanese monsters and sea creatures
**[22:46] Jua**
are all kind of the same anyway, right?
**[22:50] Chris**
Yeah?
**[22:51] Jua**
Wait, wait.
**[22:52] Jua**
I'm sure you'll like this next thing.
**[22:56] Chris**
Yeah.
**[22:57] Jua**
Favorite plant: Jabuticaba!
**[23:00] Chris**
Sunflower
**[23:00] Chris**
No, sunflower.
**[23:01] Jua**
Sunflower?!
**[23:03] Chris**
Sunflower.
**[23:04] Jua**
Naked mole rat. Rambutan.
Blotchy swell shark.
**[23:08] Jua**
And now sunflower?!
**[23:09] Chris**
Yeah.
**[23:10] Jua**
Why is that the only popular
thing on the list?
**[23:13] Jua**
A choice like an elementary
school girl would make...
**[23:16] Jua**
That doesn't make sense!
**[23:17] Jua**
Your choices don't make sense!
**[23:20] Jua**
Wait, wait...
**[23:22] Jua**
I just don't know anymore.
**[23:25] Chris**
I did learn one thing.
**[23:27] Jua**
What?
**[23:28] Chris**
We're not alike at all, huh?
**[23:32] Chris**
See you next week. Bye-bye.

**[00:02] Miracle**
* The order of performances for the*
* ADEN Seed has been announced!*
**[00:07] Auris**
* The first unit will be VICONIC,*
* featuring Jua and Thea.*
**[00:14] Miracle**
* They were the first to perform,*
* but they didn't seem fazed at all!*
**[00:17] Miracle**
*They even went on a little vacation!*
**[00:20] Miracle**
*How can they be so relaxed?!*
**[00:24] (Flashback) Jua**
I made a song for the unit battle.
**[00:27] (Flashback) Thea**
But first, there's something
I want to show you.
**[00:30] (Flashback) Thea**
This time, I want to stand on stage beside you.
Not as a rival, but as a partner.
**[00:36] (Flashback) Jua**
Yeah.
**[00:41] Miracle**
*VICONIC's performance was amazing!*
**[00:44] Miracle**
*I couldn't take my eyes off them!*
**[00:48] (Flashback) Auris**

**[02:26] Sofia**
It's looking good.
**[02:28] Sofia**
This will work!
***SIGN*** How's it looking?
***SIGN*** Looking good. Give me a little more time.
***SIGN*** Roger!
***SIGN*** I'm on my way.
**[02:38] Ximena**
Hello, Sofia!
**[02:42] Ximena**
What's wrong?
**[02:46] Ximena**
Sofia? Hello?
**[02:49] Sofia**
Boo!
**[02:53] Sofia**
Sorry, sorry.
**[02:55] Ximena**
Unbelievable! Two Sofias?
**[02:59] Sofia**
This is a copy of my avatar.
**[03:03] Ximena**
Don't scare me like that.
**[03:06] Ximena**
So, you're here to talk
about our unit, right?
**[03:09] Sofia**
I'm working on the music and
choreography right now.
**[03:11] Sofia**
I need a little more time.
**[03:14] Sofia**
Practice with my copy until I'm finished.
**[03:17] Ximena**
What?
**[03:18] Sofia**
My calculations show that this should
be the best way to practice.
**[03:23] Ximena**
Well, you've thought it through, right?
**[03:27] Sofia**
Sure have.
**[03:28] Ximena**
So, was inviting me and Zoe to be
in your unit part of your plan?
**[03:33] Sofia**
It's just like I said then.
**[03:36] (Flashback) Sofia**
The three of us will make the perfect unit.
**[03:41] Ximena**
The perfect unit...
**[03:43] Sofia**
That's right.
**[03:45] Sofia**
Anyway, practice hard.
**[03:46] Ximena**
Um... I wanted to form a
unit with you and Zoe, too.
**[03:53] Ximena**
So when you invited me, I was really happy.
**[03:57] Sofia**
So we both feel the same
way about each other!
**[04:00] Ximena**
That's right!
**[04:02] Sofia**
Okay, bye.
**[04:10] Ximena**
*I was able to say how I felt too, Jessie.*
**[04:13] Ximena**
Wow! I forgot about the copy.
**[04:16] Ximena**
Wait, does this mean that
Zoe's got her own copy, too?
**[04:22] Ximena**
Maybe I'll go see what she's up to.
***SIGN*** Yeah.
***SIGN*** Give me a little more time.
***SIGN*** Yeah.
***SIGN*** I'm on my way.
**[04:38] Sofia**
Huh?
**[04:42] Ximena**
She's doing the same thing here, too.
**[04:44] Sofia**
That didn't scare you?
**[04:46] Zoe**
I was curious what you were
doing hiding behind your copy.
**[04:50] Sofia**
You saw through it, huh?
**[04:51] Ximena**
Wow! She scared me silly!
**[04:54] Sofia**
You two really are different.
**[04:58] Sofia**
Zoe, I want you to practice with
my copy until I finish working
**[05:01] Sofia**
on the music and choreography.
**[05:04] Zoe**
With your copy?
**[05:07] Sofia**
My calculations show that as 3DM8's
frontman, you're the key to victory.
**[05:14] Sofia**
Of course, we can't do it
without you too, Ximena.
**[05:18] Sofia**
So I want you both to be
totally ready to go
**[05:21] Sofia**
by the time I'm finished
making the perfect song.
**[05:24] Sofia**
The perfect performance and the
perfect performers...
**[05:27] Sofia**
When these two link, it should create
the ultimate chemical reaction.
**[05:33] Sofia**
The look in your eyes...
**[05:34] Sofia**
It tells me I was right to form 3DM8.
**[05:39] Sofia**
Okay, now get to work.
**[05:42] Ximena**
I can't figure Sofia out.
**[05:45] Ximena**
She's the type to follow her own path, huh?
**[05:47] Zoe**
This is well made.
**[05:50] Zoe**
What?
**[05:51] Ximena**
Nothing.
**[05:53] Ximena**
* I can't figure out what*
* Zoe's thinking either.*
**[05:57] Ximena**
*That's kind of fun, though.*
**[06:00] Zoe**
This is a pretty cool way to do lessons.
**[06:02] Ximena**
Yeah. For now, let's do what she's asking.
**[06:06] Zoe**
I'm sure the other units
aren't practicing like this.
**[06:10] Zoe**
But this was the answer Sofia came up with.
**[06:14] Zoe**
When I think about what will happen...
**[06:16] Zoe**
it makes me feel all tingly!
**[06:18] Ximena**
That's right!
**[06:19] Ximena**
It's pretty neat, huh?
**[06:23] Ximena**
Still...
**[06:26] Ximena**
Sofia just thinks differently
than most people.
**[06:30] Ximena**
Her dad's the head of a world-famous
IT company, after all!
**[06:35] Ximena**
And they say she's a genius
programmer who's been working
**[06:39] Ximena**
on different projects since she was little.
**[06:42] Zoe**
I've heard that she was the youngest
member of a certain huge project.
**[06:47] Ximena**
Unbelievable!
**[06:49] Ximena**
What's going on inside her head, I wonder.
**[07:02] Ximena**
Hey, didn't Sofia once say she wants
to put an AI inside her head?
**[07:09] Zoe**
An AI?
**[07:10] Ximena**
Yeah. She says she wants
to see what would happen.
**[07:14] Zoe**
She's thinking about stuff that
would never occur to us, I bet.
**[07:21] Chris**
I want a slightly different version...
**[07:35] Sofia**
I found you.
**[07:48] Sofia**
Hey.
**[07:49] Chris**
*Oh, no!*
**[07:50] Chris**
* I was so busy writing the*
* song that I didn't notice.*
**[07:53] Sofia**
The sole of your shoe.
**[07:57] Chris**
An icon I've never seen before.
**[08:00] Chris**
When did she...
**[08:02] Sofia**
It's not like you not to notice.
**[08:07] Chris**
So that was when...
**[08:08] Chris**
I should've been more careful.
**[08:11] Sofia**
Why do you keep acting
like a cornered animal?
**[08:15] Chris**
What do you want?
**[08:16] Sofia**
I just want to talk.
**[08:20] Sofia**
This song is great.
**[08:22] Chris**
Give that back.
**[08:23] Sofia**
Sorry, sorry.
**[08:24] Sofia**
I'm not going to take it or anything.
**[08:31] Sofia**
Why are you so afraid of me?
**[08:34] Sofia**
It's like there's something
you don't want me knowing.
**[08:39] Chris**
You're going to boil me into a stew.
**[08:41] Sofia**
I am not.
**[08:43] Sofia**
But I do want to analyze you.
**[08:47] Sofia**
Sorry, sorry!
**[08:48] Sofia**
I am curious about you,
but I'm not going to hurt you.
**[08:52] Sofia**
I just want to talk. That's all!
**[08:59] Sofia**
Thank you.
**[09:00] Sofia**
You really do fascinate me.
**[09:03] Sofia**
Just standing here I can feel
how much you're changing.
**[09:07] Sofia**
This world's filled with
amazing things, isn't it?
**[09:12] Sofia**
People who inspire you.
**[09:15] Sofia**
Tools, things that happen...
**[09:17] Sofia**
No day is ever the same.
**[09:19] Sofia**
Every day is different.
**[09:22] Sofia**
For you, right now, what is this world?
**[09:28] Chris**
For me?
**[09:30] Sofia**
*Tell me.*
**[09:32] Sofia**
* Tell me about the changes you've*
* experienced, that I never will.*
**[09:36] Sofia**
*How you're changing, how you feel...*
**[09:40] Sofia**
*I want to know.*
**[09:42] Chris**
To me, this world is...
**[09:48] Chris**
* Before I met Miracle, it looked like*
* nothing but a bunch of abstract symbols.*
**[09:55] Chris**
* I didn't know what shape*
* I was taking, or who I was.*
**[10:02] (Flashback) Miracle**
Chris!
**[10:07] Chris**
*But that changed when I met Miracle.*
**[10:11] Chris**
*Miracle was always there with me.*
**[10:14] Chris**
*She came to like me.*
**[10:17] Chris**
* And each time I could feel*
* how she felt about me,*
**[10:20] Chris**
* little by little, I started to*
* feel like I understood who I was.*
**[10:25] Chris**
* And Miracle connected me to a*
* lot of other people, too...*
**[10:34] Chris**
* And the next thing I knew,*
* I was there with them.*
**[10:38] Chris**
* The things I want to do, the people*
* I love, the things I love...*
**[10:43] Chris**
*Each time I found something new,*
**[10:45] Chris**
* what looked like an abstract*
* symbol came to life.*
**[10:51] Chris**
*And that's still happening, even now.*
**[10:58] Chris**
*I still don't know what this world is.*
**[11:02] Chris**
I don't understand.
**[11:04] Chris**
I still don't understand.
**[11:06] Chris**
I don't know what kind
of world this is, yet.
**[11:11] Sofia**
I see.
**[11:12] Sofia**
You know, you really do fascinate me, Chris.
**[11:15] Sofia**
That wasn't the answer
I expected at all, you see.
**[11:19] Sofia**
You still don't understand, huh?
**[11:24] Sofia**
Sorry to interrupt you.
**[11:26] Sofia**
I want to keep watching how you change.
**[11:30] Sofia**
And how your world changes.
**[11:34] Sofia**
I can't wait to see.
**[11:57] Sofia**
This is it!
**[11:58] Sofia**
It connected!
**[12:04] Ximena**
Unbelievable!
**[12:07] Ximena**
Not a single word from her
until the day we perform!
**[12:10] Zoe**
She probably has a reason for it.
**[12:14] Ximena**
I'm sure, yeah.
**[12:16] [SONG] Sign**
I finished the song for 3DM8. Come to my room.
**[12:24] Ximena**
Jeez! I didn't think you'd go
completely radio silent on us!
**[12:28] Sofia**
Sorry.
**[12:30] Sofia**
For me, it was all part of the plan.
**[12:33] Zoe**
You made your perfect song, right?
**[12:35] Sofia**
Yeah. Now we have to finish it.
**[12:38] Ximena**
But there's barely any time
until the performance!
**[12:41] Sofia**
Yeah. We've got enough time to
run through it exactly once.
**[12:45] Ximena**
Unbelievable! Just once!
**[12:47] Sofia**
That's how I want it.
**[12:50] Sofia**
3DM8's biggest advantage is that
we all have our own unique skills,
**[12:55] Sofia**
and shine with our own light.
**[12:59] Sofia**
We all shine on our own, but the first time
we connect with someone else's light...
**[13:04] Sofia**
It will create a big bang that
enthralls all life in the universe.
**[13:08] Sofia**
So my calculations show that our first
performance will be our best one!
**[13:15] Zoe**
I see.
**[13:16] Zoe**
That's incredible.
**[13:18] Ximena**
Okay. Let's do it.
**[13:21] Sofia**
* I'd done my calculations on these two,*
* but they may have surpassed them.*
**[13:26] Sofia**
*I was right to ask them to join me.*
**[13:29] Sofia**
* I've been so excited this whole time*
* because I knew something would happen.*
**[13:33] Sofia**
Okay, let's get ready.
**[13:37] Miracle**
It's almost time for 3DM8's performance!
**[13:45] Chris**
*What kind of performance is she going to do?*
**[13:50] Sofia**
*I'm about to reach maximum excitement...*
**[13:54] Sofia**
* I never thought it would*
* feel quite like this...*
**[13:58] Sofia**
Now, let's go!
***SIGN*** Great!
**[15:35] [SONG] Sign**
I loved it!
**[15:35] [SONG] Sign**
That was incredible!
**[15:36] [SONG] Sign**
I loved it!
**[15:36] [SONG] Sign**
That was incredible!
**[15:36] [SONG] Sign**
So cool!
**[15:37] [SONG] Sign**
So cool!
**[15:37] [SONG] Sign**
I'm shaking!
**[15:37] [SONG] Sign**
That was incredible!
**[15:38] Ximena**
Amazing!
**[15:39] Ximena**
Everybody loves it!
**[15:41] Zoe**
Yeah.
**[15:42] Sofia**
This wasn't in my calculations...
**[15:48] Sofia**
It was more perfect than perfect!
**[15:50] Sofia**
This has never happened before!
**[15:53] Sofia**
And we can do even better
than this, can't we?
**[15:56] Ximena**
Yeah.
**[15:58] Sofia**
*Chris, these two...*
**[16:01] Sofia**
* So much is happening that my*
* calculations can't keep up!*
**[16:05] Sofia**
* The virtual world is filled with*
* the unknown, and it's incredible!*
**[16:13] Auris**
They're all too established
as unique individuals...
**[16:18] Auris**
Connecting two perfect things won't
lead you to infinite possibilities.
**[16:25] Ada**
Wonderful.
**[16:27] Ada**
Perfect individuals together in harmony...
**[16:29] Ada**
That's what's needed to create
even greater possibilities...
**[16:36] Chris**
So that was their performance...
**[16:41] Miracle**
Wow! 3DM8 is great!
**[16:44] Quan**
That was intense, huh?
**[16:46] Riz**
Each of them was unique in their own way,
**[16:50] Riz**
but they all brought out
the best in each other.
**[16:52] Noelle**
Yes, it was wonderful.
**[16:54] Miracle**
We need to do our best, too!
**[16:57] Noelle**
Yes!
**[16:58] Noelle**
And that's why you need to
write your lyrics already!
**[17:00] Riz**
That's right!
**[17:02] Quan**
Riz, how's the song coming?
**[17:04] Riz**
Looking good. Chris wants to add
the finishing touches on her own.
**[17:08] Miracle**
It's tomorrow, after all.
**[17:10] Miracle**
I'm so nervous!
**[17:11] Nolle**
If you've got time to be nervous,
you've got time to write lyrics!
**[17:14] Riz**
The song's done, the choreography's done,
**[17:17] Riz**
Noelle and Quan's lyrics are done.
**[17:20] Riz**
All that's left is Miracle's lyrics!
**[17:24] Miracle**
But there's so much I want to say that
I don't know what to write at all!
**[17:29] Noelle**
That again?
**[17:30] Riz**
Miracle is just terrible at choosing things.
**[17:33] Quan**
Miracle's feelings are twice
as strong as most people's.
**[17:36] Noelle**
Don't coddle her!
**[17:38] Noelle**
It's an artist's job to set those
feelings to a melody
**[17:40] Noelle**
so that people can hear them, right?
**[17:42] Miracle**
I've written down what I feel, but...
**[17:46] Noelle**
Let me see!
**[17:47] Miracle**
W-Wait!
**[17:49] Noelle**
"Fortune takoyaki. I want to keep
eating until I find the heart."
**[17:53] Quan**
"The chef's hamburg steak is
as whimsical as my heart"...?
**[17:58] Riz**
"I can't stop these feelings
from overflowing,"
**[18:01] Riz**
"it's like trying to stop eating
potato chips while midnight snacking."
**[18:04] Noelle**
This is all about food!
**[18:08] Miracle**
But thinking up lyrics makes me hungry.
**[18:11] Quan**
Keep at it! I know you can do it, Miracle!
**[18:14] Miracle**
Quan! Thank you!
**[18:17] Noelle**
Hey! Get to work! Now!
**[18:19] Miracle**
You're so mean, Noelle!
**[18:23] Miracle**
*Hm... What do I do?*

**[20:35] Ximena**
That was fast.
**[20:36] Zoe**
It was simpler than I thought.
**[20:38] Ximena**
Wait, I can't tell at all!
**[20:40] Sofia**
Three, two, one, zero!
***SIGN*** Already? No way!
**[20:45] Sofia**
The answer was right here!
**[20:48] Ximena**
They're all the same! How could you tell?
**[20:51] Zoe**
Its breathing looked just
a little different.
**[20:53] Ximena**
How was I supposed to tell that?!
**[20:56] Sofia**
Did you find me?
**[20:57] Ximena**
How could I?
**[20:59] Ximena**
Unbelievable!

The crane repays a debt.
**[21:24] Miracle**
Once upon a time, a young man was
walking through the mountains
**[21:27] Miracle**
when he found a crane stuck in a trap.
**[21:30] Miracle**
The crane was crying in pain.
**[21:33] Miracle**
Angyah! Kwah!
**[21:35] Quan**
Is that really what a crane sounds like?
**[21:39] Miracle**
The young man set the crane free.
**[21:42] Miracle**
And that night, somebody came
to visit him in his home.
**[21:46] Quan**
Was it the crane he saved that day?
**[21:49] Miracle**
Pipo-pipo-pipon!
**[21:51] Miracle**
Pipo-pipo-pipon!
**[21:54] Quan**
Did he live in a convenience store?
**[21:56] Miracle**
It was a young girl.
**[21:59] Miracle**
"I've gotten lost, I'm afraid."
**[22:01] Miracle**
"May I stay the night?"
**[22:04] Quan**
She's actually the crane, right?
**[22:07] Miracle**
The young man decided to let her stay.
**[22:10] Miracle**
And she stayed up the whole night,
doing something in secret.
**[22:15] Quan**
The crane's using her feathers to
weave a beautiful cloth, right?
**[22:20] Miracle**
"Tch! None of this stuff's worth anything!"
**[22:24] Quan**
She was a thief?
**[22:26] Miracle**
And then the young man said...
**[22:29] Miracle**
"You've shown who you really are, villain!"
**[22:32] Miracle**
"I guess you found me, huh?"
**[22:34] Miracle**
"I'm the phantom thief, Black Panther!"
**[22:36] Quan**
M-Miracle, wait...
**[22:39] Miracle**
What?
**[22:40] Quan**
You've got the story wrong.
**[22:42] Quan**
The way the story goes,
she's actually the crane.
**[22:44] Quan**
She weaves him a cloth he
can sell to make him rich,
**[22:47] Quan**
and that's how she repays him, right?
**[22:50] Miracle**
I came up with my own version!
**[22:52] Quan**
Okay, I see what you're going for.
**[22:54] Quan**
Let's start over at the point where
the girl comes to stay the night.
**[22:59] Miracle**
The young man decided to let her stay.
**[23:02] Miracle**
And the next morning,
she handed him a beautiful cloth.
**[23:07] Miracle**
"Sell this for a lot of money," she said.
**[23:10] Quan**
Yes, that's right!
**[23:12] Miracle**
You get 20%, I get 80%.
**[23:13] Miracle**
One word out of you, and the deal's off!
**[23:16] Quan**
Harsh.
**[23:18] Miracle**
The young man took the deal, sold
the cloth, and it was a huge success!
**[23:23] Miracle**
And that's how he was able to
open a second convenience store.
**[23:27] Quan**
So his house *was* a convenience store.
**[23:30] Miracle**
The end!
**[23:32] Quan**
Now I can't sleep.

Hey!
**[00:03] Miracle**
It's me, Miracle!
**[00:05] Miracle**
For today's stream,
**[00:07] Miracle**
I'm going to go over what's happened
so far in the main event battles!
**[00:10] Miracle**
Our top batters were VICONIC,
the duo of Jua and Thea!
**[00:14] Miracle**
They gave us a performance where
they were in perfect harmony!
**[00:18] Miracle**
The audience was already incredibly excited,
and they were only the first act!
**[00:22] Miracle**
And the next to perform
were these three: 3DM8!
**[00:27] Miracle**
That's the unit of Zoe, Ximena, and Sofia.
**[00:30] Miracle**
They say they never even practiced together
until the day of the performance!
**[00:35] Miracle**
But the things that made each of
them unique really shone through!
**[00:38] Miracle**
It was a super-high-level performance!
**[00:41] Miracle**
And now, tonight,
it's time for the third unit.
**[00:45] Miracle**
That's us, PathTLive!
**[00:48] Miracle**
Yay!
**[00:50] Miracle**
We're going to give you a super-special
performance before BRT5 does the last one!
**[00:57] Miracle**
I'm working on the lyrics
at this very moment!
**[01:01] Miracle**
So look forward to today's
performance, everyone!
**[01:08] Miracle**
But... the lyrics aren't done at all!

I-I made it...
**[03:07] Noelle**
What the heck happened to you?!
**[03:11] Miracle**
I ended up staying awake the
whole night working on the lyrics.
**[03:17] Noelle**
You didn't need to make virtual eye bags
**[03:20] Noelle**
and virtual sunken cheeks
for your avatar, though.
**[03:23] Miracle**
I want to get across how hard I worked!
**[03:26] Quan**
So, are the lyrics done?
**[03:29] Miracle**
They're all set to go!
**[03:31] Chris**
Are you okay, Miracle?
**[03:33] Miracle**
Riz, I'll send them now.
**[03:37] Riz**
Now we've finally got
everyone's lyrics ready.
**[03:41] Riz**
When we think about this from
a data-based perspective...
**[03:45] Riz**
The best way to handle a new song
is to select from the lyrics
**[03:48] Riz**
which represent all five of our emotions
and combine them in a balanced manner.
**[03:52] Riz**
That's what I'd like to do this time, too.
**[03:57] Miracle**
Okay!
**[03:59] Miracle**
We all feel the same way.

**[04:29] Ada**
We're at the halfway point,
with two performances finished.
**[04:32] Ada**
What are your thoughts
so far, Principal Auris?
**[04:36] Auris**
Perfect synchronization.
**[04:40] Auris**
This performance is the ideal that I seek.
**[04:44] Ada**
I see.
**[04:46] Ada**
But this pair is too harmonious.
**[04:49] Ada**
I can't feel the artists'
individuality at all.
**[04:53] Auris**
So Ada, the winner of the
Lapin d'Or, prefers...
**[04:59] Ada**
A violent clash between unique individuals.
**[05:03] Ada**
Performances like this are the
ones that change the world.
**[05:08] Auris**
So our opinions are completely opposite.
**[05:11] Ada**
If the remaining two performances prioritize
harmony over individuality as well,
**[05:16] Ada**
they'll never survive at
the Virtual Grid Awards.
**[05:20] Auris**
We won't know that until it happens.
**[05:23] Ada**
I want to ask you a question.
**[05:26] Ada**
Why are you having all of ADEN
participate in these qualifiers?
**[05:33] Auris**
I want to show the world how wonderful
it can be to connect through artists.
**[05:39] Ada**
I'll be blunt. Your idea of "connection" is
nothing but harmful. It crushes the individual.
**[05:46] Auris**
There's no point in arguing about that here.
**[05:50] Auris**
We'll know what kind of "connection"
will change the world...
**[05:55] Auris**
once the last two units have
finished their performances.

Aw, Riz, things were just getting good!

Th-This can't be happening!

Wh-Why?
**[08:59] Riz**
I don't know.
**[09:00] Riz**
But...
**[09:01] Noelle**
Don't you have a copy somewhere?
**[09:03] Riz**
No. It's all gone.
**[09:05] Riz**
I'm trying to restore it, but...
**[09:07] Riz**
Restore Data?
**[09:07] Riz**
I can't!
**[09:09] Noelle**

**[09:13] Riz**
What about you, Chris?
**[09:14] Chris**
It's all gone.
**[09:19] Miracle**
Why?
**[09:21] Miracle**
Why did this happen?
**[09:23] Chris**
Miracle, calm down.
**[09:25] Miracle**
But we can't do our performance
in the main event without a song.
**[09:28] Quan**
Let's all sign out and go look for the data.
**[09:31] Riz**
Okay, if somebody finds it,
we'll all meet up again here.

Someone is rewriting ADEN's network systems!

**[10:01] Auris**
Now you've done it, Ada.
**[10:07] Ada**
Damn it...
**[10:09] Ada**
Auris, what I really wanted
to overwrite was your...

ADEN's network is under
cyberattack from someone.
**[11:14] Sofia**
*I was tracking them when I found you.*

*Tell me.*

I'm still not 100% clear.

But...
**[12:00] Chris**
I feel like there's a power that will let us
do something incredible if we connect.
**[12:04] Chris**
It's a world that will give me
that power... give me a heart.
**[12:09] Sofia**
A heart?
**[12:11] Sofia**
It's surprising to hear that from you.
**[12:15] Chris**
I want that heart.
**[12:17] Chris**
Sofia, I want your help.

Please, help us.

We've practiced this whole time with the

**[15:48] Niska**
BRT5 asks you, too.
**[15:52] Auris**
*It's time.*
**[15:54] Auris**
*I have an announcement for you all.*
**[15:58] Miracle**
Have we been disqualified?
**[16:00] Auris**
*Due to a request from BRT5,*
**[16:04] Auris**
* they will perform today*
* instead of PathTLive.*
**[16:16] Sarah**
What is it, Halle?
**[16:18] Halle**
I was just thinking that
we've really changed.
**[16:23] Sarah**
The old BRT5 would never
have been this nice, right?
**[16:28] Niska**
Yes, we've changed.
**[16:30] Niska**
But there are sights that only
those who have changed can see.
**[16:35] Jessie**
Yes, I don't mind the way
we've changed at all.
**[16:38] Jessie**
If anything, I'm proud.
**[16:40] Niska**
Let's go see something incredible.
**[16:42] Niska**
Something we've never
been able to see before!
**[18:22] Jessie**
We all got to see something
incredible today!
**[18:25] Halle**
It was the absolute best we've ever done!
**[18:29] Jessie**
We'll always be together from now on, Niska.
**[18:33] Niska**
Yeah.
**[18:36] Miracle**
Okay, now it's our turn!
**[18:38] Chris**
I'm raring to go!
**[18:40] Quan**
Yes, we'll give the ultimate performance.
**[18:43] Quan**
One where none of our feelings go to waste!
**[18:44] Sofia**
*Everyone, listen to me.*
**[18:46] Riz**
Sofia.
**[18:48] Sofia**
* It took some time, but I*
* found a way to get you out.*
**[18:52] Noelle**
Really?
**[18:53] Sofia**
* I'm going to have you move*
* to a Linkverse I updated.*
**[18:57] Miracle**
An updated link...
**[19:01] Miracle**
I don't understand, but you
really are a genius, Sofia!
**[19:04] Sofia**
*Riz, can you hear me?*
**[19:06] Riz**
What?
**[19:06] Sofia**
*I need your help.*
**[19:08] Sofia**
I want you to rewrite your sector's code
to allow it to access my Linkverse.
**[19:14] Quan**
B-But...
**[19:16] Riz**
There's no other way?
**[19:18] Miracle**
Huh? What's going on?
**[19:21] Riz**
Listen to me carefully, Miracle.
**[19:24] Riz**
Rewriting this sector's
code means deleting it.
**[19:30] Chris**
Deleting it?
**[19:31] Miracle**
Wait, you can't do that!
**[19:34] Quan**
Miracle...
**[19:36] Miracle**
We have so many memories here...
**[19:40] Miracle**
You can't...
**[19:43] Miracle**
You can't do that!

* "The unit battles have been*
* proceeding without a hitch,"*
**[00:05] Miracle**
*"and now it's our turn!"*
**[00:07] Quan**
* That's what we were thinking when*
* something terrible happened.*
**[00:10] Riz**
* The ADEN network came under cyberattack,*
* and data inside ADEN was deleted.*
**[00:17] Noelle**
* We'd almost finished our song,*
* but it was deleted.*
**[00:20] Noelle**
* And there was no time left*
* before our performance!*
**[00:23] Noelle**
*And then...*
**[00:25] Chris**
*BRT5 took our place.*
**[00:28] Quan**
* All that was left was to move*
* to the Linkverse Sofia created,*
**[00:31] Quan**
*and PathTLive would be able to perform.*
**[00:34] Miracle**
*But to do it, we'd have to...*
**[02:07] Miracle**
~Connection of Hope~
**[02:07] Miracle**
~Connection of Hope~
**[02:08] Sofia**
*I'll say it again.*
**[02:09] Sofia**
* To access my Linkverse, you'll need*
* to rewrite the code of that sector.*
**[02:16] Miracle**
But... if we do that...
**[02:19] Miracle**
this place will disappear.
**[02:25] Miracle**
I can't do that!
**[02:27] Miracle**
I have too many memories here!
**[02:31] Chris**
Let's think of another way.
**[02:34] Noelle**
Yeah. But...
**[02:38] Riz**
There's too little data to figure
out what the right answer is.
**[02:42] Riz**
But I can tell that the method
Sofia is offering us is the best one.
**[02:47] Riz**
* But I can tell that the method*
* Sofia is offering us is the best one.*
**[02:51] Miracle**
But... But...
**[02:57] Noelle**
Quan?
**[02:59] Quan**
I'll delete marumaru.
**[03:03] Quan**
Miracle's right.
**[03:05] Quan**
We have a lot of precious memories here.
**[03:11] Quan**
But... right now, those memories
are holding us back.
**[03:19] Miracle**
Wait, Quan. Stop—
**[03:29] Miracle**
No...
**[03:31] Miracle**
It's gone...
**[03:39] Quan**
Don't worry.
**[03:42] Quan**
It's right here.
**[03:46] Quan**
You can't see them.
You can't touch them.
**[03:49] Quan**
But that doesn't mean that
the memories disappear.
**[03:53] Quan**
Memories aren't things that hold us back.
**[03:58] Quan**
They're our friends,
encouraging us to move on.
**[04:01] Quan**
That's what I think.
**[04:03] Miracle**
Quan...
**[04:04] Noelle**
Quan's right!
**[04:07] Riz**
It's inside us, too!
**[04:13] Chris**
And inside you too, of course.
**[04:18] Miracle**
Of course! Of course it is!
**[04:25] Chris**
There, there.
**[04:27] Miracle**
Quan, I'm sorry!
**[04:29] Miracle**
It's my fault...
**[04:30] Miracle**
I made you do the most painful
thing you could do.
**[04:33] Miracle**
That marumaru avatar was precious to you.
**[04:39] Quan**
No, it's fine.
**[04:42] Chris**
There, there for you too, Quan.
**[04:46] Miracle**
But! But! But!
**[04:48] Miracle**
I need to apologize!
**[04:50] Miracle**
What do I do?
**[04:52] Quan**
I just said...
**[04:54] Chris**
Uncle. Uncle.
**[04:56] Noelle**
Quan, you need to say something
or she'll never stop.
**[05:02] Quan**
Okay...
**[05:05] Quan**
Buy me some fortune takoyaki later.
**[05:08] Miracle**
As many as you want!
**[05:09] Miracle**
I'll give you 100 heart ones!
**[05:11] Riz**
No, probabilistically speaking,
that's impossible!
**[05:14] Miracle**
I'll raise the probability with spirit!
**[05:16] Noelle**
"Spirit"?
**[05:18] Riz**
But, well...
**[05:19] Chris**
I think Miracle could do it!
**[05:29] Quan**
Miracle...
**[05:30] Miracle**
Yeah.
**[05:32] Miracle**
We'll leave this place and give
the best performance ever!
**[05:36] All**
Yeah!
**[05:39] Riz**
Okay, here goes!
**[05:43] Sofia**
Alright.
**[05:46] Jua**
I was so nervous!
**[05:49] Sarah**
Now they'll make it in
time for the performance.
**[05:52] Jessie**
Of course.
**[05:53] Jessie**
That's why we switched places with them.
**[06:02] Sofia**
*Good, Riz.*
**[06:03] Sofia**
Keep it up.
**[06:05] Riz**
Just a little more... a little more...
**[06:08] Sofia**
The sector code rewrite is...
**[06:12] Riz**
...all done!
**[06:15] Sofia**
*Okay!*
**[06:16] Riz**
Perfect!
**[06:18] Miracle**
Yay!
**[06:19] Riz**
Now we just access Sofia's Linkverse...
**[06:25] Riz**
What?
**[06:29] Riz**
*Sofia?!*
**[06:30] Sofia**
I'm on it!
**[06:31] Sofia**
*But...*
**[06:34] Miracle**
Chris!
**[06:39] Quan**
Miracle!
**[06:41] Sofia**
*No... I can't stop it!*
**[06:43] Sofia**
* Some kind of code is starting*
* to delete its own contract!*
**[06:50] Sofia**
It's going faster than before!
**[06:53] Ximena**
Is everything okay?
**[06:54] Sofia**
Not so much.
**[06:56] Sofia**
I hate to say it, but I can't keep up!
**[06:59] Sofia**
I need to find some way
to go faster than it.
**[07:02] Sofia**
No, that's not it.
**[07:03] Sofia**
I don't need to go faster. I need to...
**[07:08] Sofia**
VICONIC! BRT5!
**[07:12] Niska**
What?
**[07:13] Sofia**
*Can you come here?*
**[07:16] Sofia**
I'm sure you all saw, but...
**[07:17] Jua**
PathTLive is in big trouble, right?
**[07:21] Sofia**
A sector code rewrite wasn't enough
to get them to my Linkverse.
**[07:28] Jessie**
So what do we do?
**[07:30] Sofia**
I want data that won't lose to
the code that's attacking ADEN.
**[07:34] Sofia**
No, not "won't lose"...
**[07:36] Sofia**
Data that can keep fighting.
**[07:38] Sofia**
Data that will never stop.
**[07:40] Sofia**
That's what I need.
**[07:42] Jessie**
What does that mean?
**[07:44] Thea**
But where would you...
**[07:46] Niska**
I see.
**[08:02] Miracle**
Quan! Chris!
**[08:06] Miracle**
Noelle! Riz!
**[08:11] Miracle**
Where did everybody go?
**[08:13] Miracle**
Why?
**[08:14] Miracle**
We were all about to do the best
performance ever as PathTLive...
**[08:45] Miracle**
What do I do? What am I supposed to do?
**[08:50] Miracle**
I'm scared.
**[09:04] Noelle**
I just heard something.
**[09:08] Riz**
This is...
**[09:09] Miracle**
Music!
**[10:14] Quan**
BRT5!
**[10:21] Sofia**
Yeah. Keep it up.
**[11:50] Chris**
VICONIC.
**[11:55] Miracle**
Jua... Thea...
**[12:04] Sofia**
The thing which guides you...
**[12:06] Sofia**
which never stops.
**[12:08] Sofia**
It's...
**[12:09] Sofia**
Our music, which is connected to you!
**[13:38] Riz**
3DM8...
**[13:54] Niska**
Come here!
**[13:55] Jua**
Take...
**[13:57] Sofia**
...our hands!
**[14:11] Miracle**
No.
**[14:12] Quan**
Not this way!
**[14:14] Chris**
Everyone is...
**[14:15] Noelle**
The path we need to follow is...
**[14:19] Riz**
This way!
**[14:46] Miracle**
Um, where are we?
**[14:49] Riz**
Sofia's Linkverse.
**[14:51] Noelle**
So it worked. I'm so glad.
**[14:56] Miracle**
Everyone worked together to bring us here!
**[14:59] Quan**
It's strange...
**[15:01] Quan**
It's an empty world, just like
the one we were in before,
**[15:04] Quan**
but I'm not scared.
**[15:07] Chris**
Because we connected with everyone?
**[15:09] Noelle**
Yes. We connected with
VICONIC, 3DM8, and BRT5,
**[15:12] Noelle**
but we didn't connect with everything.
**[15:15] Noelle**
Some people we couldn't connect with...
**[15:17] Riz**
But that's why we meet other people.
**[15:22] Noelle**
And there are times when you can feel like you've
connected with someone by saying goodbye.
**[15:26] Chris**
There are so many different ways
to feel and interpret things.
**[15:29] Riz**
And everything is always changing shape.
**[15:34] Miracle**
Every second, we're becoming
someone different.
**[15:39] Chris**
That's what this world is.
**[15:41] Chris**
You can be anything, and do anything.
**[15:44] Miracle**
Right?
**[15:46] Riz**
Which means...
**[15:48] Riz**
There's no reason to just sit around
in this Linkverse forever, right?
**[15:52] Noelle**
Feeling a rivalry towards Sofia?
**[15:54] Riz**
I'm not sure I'm ready to be
called her rival, actually.
**[15:58] Quan**
Let's go.
**[16:00] Chris**
The music is playing inside our hearts.
**[16:04] Miracle**
We didn't need to look for it.
**[16:06] Miracle**
Our sound was right here!
**[16:09] All**
Yeah!
**[16:13] Miracle**
PathTLive...
**[16:15] All**
Go!
**[17:54] Ada**
A thing which is not individual,
and yet is individual.
**[17:56] Ada**
I'm surprised to see such a thing being born.
**[18:00] Ada**
But... it is also the birth of
something which could be dangerous.
**[18:05] Ada**
Now, can you predict the kind
of future this will lead to?
**[18:16] Auris**
I see...
**[18:17] Auris**
This is the possibility that
connects the world...
**[18:20] Auris**
A fragment of her feelings... isn't it?
**[18:39] Auris**
Excellent work, everyone.
**[18:42] Auris**
Thank you for overcoming those unexpected
difficulties and delivering an excellent performance.
**[18:48] Auris**
ADEN is currently rebuilding
the damaged areas.
**[18:51] Vanitys**
Vani! Vani! Vani! Vani!
**[18:51] Auris**
It will be back to normal by morning.
**[18:54] Auris**
I apologize for the trouble.
**[18:57] Auris**
Now, that concludes the last
of our unit performances.
**[19:02] Auris**
I will now announce the winners of the
Virtual Grid Awards main event unit battle!
**[19:15] Auris**
VICONIC,
**[19:17] Auris**
3DM8,
**[19:19] Auris**
BRT5,
**[19:21] Auris**
PathTLive.
**[19:23] Auris**
The winners of this battle, who will
be going onstage at the VGAs...
