**[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
**[19:38] [SONG] Song**

**[19:59] [SONG] Song**
Will reach you, hey, right now
**[20:04] [SONG] Song**
I want to see you so
much, I can't stop crying
**[20:07] [SONG] Song**

Hey, it's me, Miracle!
***SIGN*** It's me, Miracle!
**[20:44] Miracle**
How you all doing?
**[20:46] Miracle**
I'm going to spend the whole stream
talking about ADEN Academy today!
***SIGN*** I'm going to spend the whole stream
***SIGN*** talking about ADEN Academy today!
**[20:52] Miracle**
Hmm, where to start?
**[20:56] Vanity**
Why not tell them what ADEN is short for?
**[21:00] Miracle**
Great idea! Thanks, Vanity!
**[21:02] Miracle**
So, what is ADEN Academy short for?
**[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..."

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—
