[00:04] Miracle
    I just made a new friend!
[00:07] Miracle
    Her name's Chris!
[00:09] Miracle
    She told me she really liked the
    performance I did in class.
[00:13] Miracle
    But she said she didn't know
    what she liked about it.
[00:17] Miracle
    She decided she might figure
    it out if she danced to it,
[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.
[00:29] Miracle
    And then she kissed me?!
[00:32] Miracle
    Chris really is a mysterious girl!
[00:36] [SONG] Song
    Let’s go all the way, until
    we reach the greatest stage
[00:47] [SONG] Song
    The ground I stood on only looked distorted
[00:52] [SONG] Song
    Because I saw it through tears of frustration
[00:57] [SONG] Song
    But standing still isn’t like me!
[01:02] [SONG] Song
    So I ran like crazy until I was out of breath
[01:08] [SONG] Song
    No matter how many times I
    get discouraged, I still love it
[01:12] [SONG] Song
    I believe in my friends, and in
    the me that’s chasing my dream
[01:21] [SONG] Song
    Let our sparkling minds spout up
[01:23] [SONG] Song
    Ride on this future wave!
    We’ll go beyond this unstoppable thrill
[01:28] [SONG] Song
    Race through with all our might
    to find the sky we want to see
[01:33] [SONG] Song
    Each time a dream comes true, the new “now”
    is my new starting line, over and over without end
[01:39] [SONG] Song
    Ride toward the future! The next step we take
[01:44] [SONG] Song
    Will give rise to opportunity, as
    much as all the courage we have
[01:48] [SONG] Song
    Our shared wish binds us together
    as we ride this tailwind
[01:54] [SONG] Song
    How far can we go? With
    our hands linked tightly
[01:59] [SONG] Song

    AI-chan...
[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!
[14:05] [SONG] Song
    Wonder heart connect the rainbow
[14:09] [SONG] Song
    towards a future where you'll
    find a bright, refreshing wind
[14:22] [SONG] Song
    My alarm clock rings and
    I rush out in the morning
[14:29] [SONG] Song
    The constant rain makes me want to give up
[14:36] [SONG] Song
    But I want to nurture the feelings
    that have sprouted inside me
[14:43] [SONG] Song
    because I believe a spring wind will blow
[14:48] [SONG] Song
    Even if the world I dreamed of is
    far away and feels like a mirage
[14:55] [SONG] Song
    I can't stop my heart now that
    it's crossed over dimensions
[15:04] [SONG] Song
    Wonder heart the path I've
    walked to get this far
[15:08] [SONG] Song
    is what will connect the rainbow
[15:12] [SONG] Song
    The path to a still-unseen future
[15:15] [SONG] Song
    I want to keep on singing!
[15:18] [SONG] Song
    'Cause if there's a rainbow in my heart
[15:22] [SONG] Song
    I know tomorrow will have clear skies too
[15:25] [SONG] Song
    At twilight the stars twinkle
[15:29] [SONG] Song
    I make a vow to a morning star
[15:31] [SONG] Song
    Waving my hand at the future
[15:37] Miracle
    My heart's pounding so fast right now.
[15:40] Miracle

[15:44] Miracle
    I just ran through it the best that
    I could. What do you think?

    I'm capable of right now.
[15:52] Miracle
    I hope you enjoyed it!

    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

[16:12] Miracle

[16:15] Chris
    Yeah, it is.
[16:17] Chris
    You got a message.
[16:18] Miracle
    An invitation message?

[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!

    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!

    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

    I am waiting for... forever

    Question 1.
[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

    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
