**[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**
These are the connections I wanted to see...
**[02:22] Sign**

**[02:22] Sign**
~We, the Unknown~
**[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?*

The crane repays a debt
**[21:22] Miracle**
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!
