    4-15-2095
[00:17] ---
    940 milliseconds!
[00:19] ---
    You've cleared it, Tatsuya!
[00:21] ---
    Finally... Took me until
    my third try to clear it, huh?
[00:25] ---
    B-But that was so unexpected.
[00:27] ---
    So you really do struggle
    with practical skills...
[00:31] ---
    Unexpected? Haven't I already made
    my incompetence clear numerous times?
[00:35] ---
    Well, yes, I did hear you say that...
    But I thought you were just being modest...
[00:39] ---
    Not sure if I should be saying this myself,
[00:42] ---
    but if I were even average in practical
    skills, I probably wouldn't be in this class.
[00:46] ---
    Yes, you're right. If you were good
    at practical skills, too, though...
[00:50] ---
    You'd be way too perfect,
[00:52] ---
    and not very approachable, I think.
[00:56] ---
    Tatsuya?
[00:58] ---
    Don't you feel bitter?
[01:01] ---
    About what?
[01:02] ---
    The fact that even though
    you really do have talent...
[01:04] ---
    you've been evaluated
    as if you have none at all...
[01:07] ---
    Normally, I think that would
    make anyone bitter.
[01:09] ---
    But since it doesn't seem to be
    bothering you that much...
[01:13] ---
    Processing speed is also a crucial factor.
[01:16] ---
    They're not far off the mark,
    labeling me as unskilled.
[01:19] ---
    But if you were to
    actually implement it,
[01:22] ---
    the truth is that you could activate it
    much faster, couldn't you?
[01:27] ---
    What makes you think that?
[01:28] ---
    During your first try...
[01:30] ---
    Tatsuya, at one point you canceled your magic
    sequence and rebuilt it from scratch, didn't you?
[01:34] ---
    Timing-wise, you read the activation sequence
    and built your first magic sequence simultaneously.
[01:41] ---
    Seeing that got me thinking.
[01:42] ---
    That for a spell of this level,
[01:45] ---
    you could probably build a magic sequence
    directly, without using an activation sequence.
[01:51] ---
    I never thought that
    you'd seen that much.
[01:54] ---
    You really do have good eyes.
[01:57] ---
    Sure, for basic single-system spells, I could invoke
    faster by building my magic sequence directly.
[02:04] ---
    But that method is only viable for
    spells that don't involve many processes.
[02:08] ---
    For example, when you transform phenomena
    by moving an egg from the kitchen to a table...
[02:13] ---
    ...it calls for a four-process spell.
[02:16] ---
    Remove Movement and
    Suspension from that spell,
[02:19] ---
    and yes, activation is speeded up,
    but the egg will break...
[02:25] ---
    But to knock back your opponent in battle,
    there's no need to absorb the impact,
[02:30] ---
    so it can be completed
    with a single process.
[02:33] ---
    Since I max out at five processes,
    that's the best I can do.
[02:37] ---
    Well, I think five processes would be
    more than enough for combat use...
[02:41] ---
    I'm not studying magic for combat use.
[02:45] ---
    My goal is to use magic to develop energy.
[02:48] ---
    To do that, I need multiple-process
    spells invoked by activation sequences.
[02:53] ---
    That's why I can live with being evaluated
    fairly for my inferior processing skills.
[02:58] ---
    There's just no way around it.
[03:02] ---
    That's amazing, Tatsuya!
    I really respect you!
[03:06] ---
    You can use magic,
    so you become a magician...
[03:09] ---
    That's the normal way.
[03:10] ---
    But you have your own goals, and
    that's what you're studying magic for!
[03:15] ---
    No... Well, actually,
    that's true, but...
[03:18] ---
    I'm going to start fresh myself!
[03:21] ---
    Initially, I was only studying magic
[03:23] ---
    so that I could learn
    to control these eyes...
[03:26] ---
    For me, it was never really about wanting to
    do something by using magic someday...
[03:33] ---
    I'm going to give it
    some serious thought!
[03:35] ---
    Hey, hey... Mizuki...
[03:36] ---
    Yes, indeed! As long as
    you have a goal in mind,
[03:40] ---
    a little slander can't
    break our backs, can it?
[03:43] ---
    As long as we can
    achieve our cherished goals!
[03:45] ---
    Our grades at this school are
    only of secondary importance!
[03:48] ---
    That's what we live for, isn't it?
[03:50] ---
    People should seek what
    they alone want to live for, and...
[03:53] ---
    Jeez, Mizuki. What are you
    getting all excited for?
[04:01] ---
    S-Sorry to cause such a commotion!
[04:03] ---
    What I live for?
[04:03] ---
    Oh, come on!
    Get a hold of yourself, Mizuki!
[04:04] ---
    It's nothing as grand as that...
[04:06] ---
    I was forced to become a magician
    even though I can't use magic.

[04:14] ---
    It's like a curse...
[05:50] ---
    You asked me a question
    the other day...
[05:52] ---
    At first... I thought that letting the school
    know that we weren't all about magic...
[05:57] ---
    I thought that would be enough.
[05:59] ---
    But now I know that
    it's not nearly enough.
[06:04] ---
    What we want...
[06:06] ---
    ...is to demand that the school
    improve our conditions!
[06:11] ---
    Specifically, what is it that
    you want them to improve?
[06:15] ---
    Well... all aspects of
    the way we're treated!
[06:18] ---
    The way we're treated?
    Like with our classes?
[06:21] ---
    The main difference between Course 1 and 2 students is
    the availability or lack thereof of instructors...
[06:26] ---
    Do I take it to mean...
[06:27] ---
    ...that you want the school
    to add more faculty?
[06:32] ---
    I don't intend to go that far, but...
[06:34] ---
    Then are you talking about club activities?
[06:37] ---
    It's my understanding that the kendo team is allotted
    the same amount of space as the kenjutsu team...
[06:44] ---
    Well... that may be true, but...
[06:47] ---
    Wait, are you saying that
    you're not disgruntled, Shiba?
[06:49] ---
    Of course I'm disgruntled.
[06:52] ---
    Then...
[06:53] ---
    However...
[06:55] ---
    There's nothing in particular that
    I want the school to change.
[07:00] ---
    My expectations of this school as
    an educational facility only go so far.
[07:05] ---
    So long as I can get clearance
    to read unpublished documents
[07:08] ---
    only made available at magic
    university-affiliated schools,
[07:10] ---
    and get my diploma from a magic high school,
    there's nothing more that I need.
[07:17] ---
    Not to mention, I'm not about to blame the school
    for the puerility of some of our classmates,
[07:22] ---
    who toss slurs at us expressly
    forbidden by the school itself.
[07:27] ---
    Unfortunately, it would appear that
    I don't share your principles, Ms. Mibu.
[07:53] ---
    Attention, all students!
[07:55] ---
    We are a volunteer coalition seeking to
    abolish discrimination within the school!

[07:59] ---
    Volunteer? Right...
[08:01] ---
    We demand an opportunity to negotiate
    on equal terms with the student council

[08:05] ---
    and the Extracurricular
    Activities Federation!

[08:13] ---
    You're late.
[08:14] ---
    Sorry.
[08:15] ---
    What's the situation?
[08:17] ---
    They've cut off the power, so they won't
    be doing any more broadcasting.
[08:21] ---
    However, they've locked the door
    and barricaded themselves inside.
SIGN    Broadcasting Room
[08:25] ---
    Can't we open it from outside?
[08:27] ---
    Well, the thing is, they stole
    the master key, so...
[08:32] ---
    But that's clearly a crime...
[08:34] ---
    That's correct.
[08:36] ---
    And for that reason, we should
    handle this with discretion,
[08:39] ---
    to prevent them from
    blowing up any further.
[08:42] ---
    Although I wouldn't count on them suddenly
    becoming more docile just because we were discreet.
[08:49] ---
    Even if it means being somewhat forceful,
    we should try to resolve this quickly.
[08:54] ---
    Chairman Jyumonji...
[08:55] ---
    What are your thoughts on this?
[08:58] ---
    I... I don't see any problem
    with negotiating with them.
[09:02] ---
    From the outset,
    this was just a pretext.
[09:05] ---
    If we refute that strongly enough,
    it should assuage their anxieties.
[09:09] ---
    So you're saying that
    we should just stand by?
[09:14] ---
    As far as that goes, I can't
    come to a decision just yet.
[09:17] ---
    Their unlawful behavior
    can't go unpunished,
[09:20] ---
    but I don't find it criminal enough to warrant destroying
    school facilities for the sake of a speedy resolution.
[09:32] ---
    Is that you, Ms. Mibu?
    This is Shiba.
[09:35] ---
    So... where are you now?
[09:38] ---
    Oh, so you're inside
    the broadcasting room?
[09:41] ---
    How unfortunate.
[09:44] ---
    No, I wasn't mocking you
    when I said that.
[09:47] ---
    Ms. Mibu, I wish you'd be more
    calm about this situation... Yes.
[09:51] ---
    Forgive me. If you don't mind,
    I'd like to cut to the chase now...
[09:55] ---
    Chairman Jyumonji has agreed
    to negotiate with you.
[09:59] ---
    I have yet to confirm
    the student council's position...
[10:03] ---
    No, wait, the student
    council will also negotiate.
[10:06] ---
    I'd like to discuss the time and
    date of these negotiations with you...
[10:11] ---
    No, your freedom is guaranteed.
[10:15] ---
    Yes...
[10:16] ---
    All right, then...
[10:18] ---
    She says they'll be
    coming out right away.
[10:19] ---
    Was that... Sayaka Mibu just now?
[10:22] ---
    Yes.
[10:23] ---
    She'd given me her private cell phone
    number so that we could meet up.
[10:27] ---
    Who knew that it would
    come in handy like this?
[10:29] ---
    You sure don't waste time, do you?
[10:31] ---
    You've got the wrong idea.
[10:32] ---
    Anyway, I think we should
    get ourselves into position.
[10:35] ---
    Position?
[10:37] ---
    Into position to take custody
    of those people inside.
[10:40] ---
    You know, it seems to me that you just
    told them that you'd guarantee their freedom...
[10:44] ---
    The only person whose freedom
    I guaranteed was that of Ms. Mibu's.
[10:48] ---
    And besides, I never said a word about the fact that
    I was negotiating on behalf of the Disciplinary Committee.
[10:54] ---
    Brother, you certainly are evil.
[10:56] ---
    Now you realize that, Miyuki?
[10:59] ---
    True.
[11:00] ---
    But, Brother...
[11:02] ---
    About the fact that you went to the trouble of
    saving Ms. Mibu's private number...
[11:08] ---
    I'll want to hear
    all about that later, all right?
[11:13] ---
    What's the meaning of this?
[11:15] ---
    You double-crossed us, didn't you?
[11:17] ---
    Shiba didn't double-cross you.
[11:21] ---
    Chairman Jyumonji...
[11:23] ---
    We'll listen to your demands.
[11:25] ---
    But complying with your requests...
[11:28] ---
    ...and approving of the measures
    you took are two different things.
[11:32] ---
    You're absolutely
    right about that, but...
[11:35] ---
    Saegusa?
[11:36] ---
    Would you mind releasing them?
[11:40] ---
    But...
[11:41] ---
    I know what you're going to say, Mari.
[11:43] ---
    But...
[11:43] ---
    We can't set up negotiations
    with Ms. Mibu alone, can we?
[11:47] ---
    As long as they're
    students at this school...
[11:49] ---
    ...there's no reason
    to view them as flight risks.
[11:51] ---
    We would never run away!
[11:54] ---
    The school has decided to leave this matter
    in the hands of the student council.
[11:58] ---
    What?
[12:00] ---
    Ms. Mibu, I'd like to discuss our
    pending negotiations with your coalition...
[12:05] ---
    Would you mind coming with me?
[12:06] ---
    Yes, that's fine with me.
SIGN    Enrollment Part V
[12:26] ---
    Chairwoman?
[12:28] ---
    Good morning.
[12:29] ---
    Tatsuya?
[12:30] ---
    You, too, Miyuki?
    What's the matter?
[12:32] ---
    We were wondering about
    yesterday's incident.
[12:38] ---
    They're demanding equal treatment
    between Course 1 and 2 students.
[12:43] ---
    But they don't seem to have figured out
    how they want to change things.
[12:48] ---
    If anything, I got the sense that they wanted
    the student council to come up with concrete plans.
[12:52] ---
    Well, then it turned into
    a heated back-and-forth.
[12:55] ---
    In the end, we agreed to hold
    an open forum tomorrow after school.
[13:00] ---
    That happened pretty fast.
[13:03] ---
    While I do understand the strategic merits of
    not giving your opponent ample time to prepare...
[13:08] ---
    By the same token, we'll have
    just as little time to strategize as well.
[13:12] ---
    Which members of the student council will be
    participating in this open forum?
[13:19] ---
    Don't tell me you're
    going to be the only one?
[13:23] ---
    Since we're out of time.
[13:25] ---
    If it's just me, they won't rip me
    to shreds over minor differences of opinion.
[13:30] ---
    And I'm more afraid of impression manipulation
    turning this into an emotional debate.
[13:34] ---
    Meaning that you'd never
    lose a logical argument?
[13:39] ---
    And besides...
[13:44] ---
    If those kids have reasons strong
    enough to defeat me in a debate...
[13:53] ---
    Then all we have to do is make that an integral
    part of running this school from now on.
[14:01] ---
    Course 2 students!
[14:02] ---
    We are members of a coalition that seeks
    to eradicate decimation within this school!
[14:07] ---
    As the student council president
    announced this morning,
[14:10] ---
    tomorrow we will be holding an open forum
    regarding the treatment of Course 1 and 2 students.
[14:14] ---
    This will be our golden opportunity to improve
    conditions for ourselves, the Course 2 students!
[14:19] ---
    Please join in the open forum!
[14:21] ---
    Uh... um...
[14:23] ---
    Well... I... Um...
[14:26] ---
    Um... that's not what I...
[14:28] ---
    Mizuki?
[14:30] ---
    Tatsuya!
[14:34] ---
    This guy...
[14:39] ---
    I'm Shiba of
    the Disciplinary Committee.
[14:41] ---
    In some cases, holding someone against
    their will for an inordinate amount of time
[14:45] ---
    is considered a nuisance,
    so please restrain yourself.
[14:48] ---
    Ms. Shibata...
[14:49] ---
    Any time is fine with me, so if you change
    your mind, will you let me know?
[14:53] ---
    Goodbye...
[14:57] ---
    Who was that?
[14:59] ---
    The captain of the kendo team.
[15:01] ---
    His name is Kinoe Tsukasa...
[15:03] ---
    He also has Hyper-sensitivity to
    Spirit Particle Emissions, like me...
[15:07] ---
    Yeah, he didn't seem to be
    wearing those glasses for style.

[15:09] ---
    He asked me if I wanted to join a club of other
    students afflicted with this same hyper-sensitivity...
[15:15] ---
    I see...
[15:17] ---
    I kept turning him down, telling him
    that I had my hands full with my classes.
[15:21] ---
    Captain of the kendo team...
[15:23] ---
    Kinoe Tsukasa, huh?
[15:27] ---
    Kinoe Tsukasa...
[15:29] ---
    Formerly known as Kinoe Kamono...
[15:31] ---
    None of his parents and grandparents
    seemed to have any propensity for magic.
[15:36] ---
    So he came from
    a so-called ordinary family...
[15:38] ---
    But it's actually a branch of
    a prominent family of onmyoji...
[15:40] ---
    The Kamo clan.
[15:43] ---
    Those eyes of Kinoe's must be
    a kind of throwback to his ancestors...
[15:47] ---
    Did you know that I wanted you
    to look into Kinoe Tsukasa?
[15:52] ---
    No, it had nothing to do with your
    request... I already knew about him.
[15:56] ---
    I may be a priest,
[15:58] ---
    but at the same time...
    no, more than that... I'm a shinobi.
[16:02] ---
    Anyone who has a past that might
    turn out to be problematic...
[16:06] ---
    I make a point of
    looking into them all.
[16:10] ---
    Have you looked into us, too?
[16:13] ---
    Not that I didn't try to...
[16:15] ---
    But at the time, I had no idea.
[16:18] ---
    The information manipulation
    concerning you two is ironclad.
[16:21] ---
    I really have to
    give you props for that...
[16:25] ---
    So, Master, what do you know about
    Mr. Tsukasa's connection to Blanche?
[16:33] ---
    Kinoe's mother's second
    husband's child...
[16:36] ---
    In other words, Kinoe's older step-brother is
    the leader of Blanche's Japan Branch.
[16:42] ---
    And this fellow named Hajime
    Tsukasa isn't just a figurehead...
[16:45] ---
    He's a genuine leader who also
    runs their secret operations,
[16:50] ---
    not the least of which is
    illegal activities.
[16:54] ---
    Kinoe enrolling at First High School
[16:57] ---
    must have been
    Hajime Tsukasa's doing.
[17:00] ---
    That forum tomorrow...
[17:10] ---
    He might be plotting something...
[17:16] ---
    4-23-2095
SIGN    OPEN FORUM REGARDING THE ELIMINATION OF DISCRIMINATION IN THE SCHOOL THE STUDENT COUNCIL
[17:28] ---
    Compared to the Course 1 students,
    the treatment received by Course 2 students
[17:31] ---
    is both inferior and
    discriminatory in all ways!
[17:33] ---
    Aren't you trying to cover up
    that fact, Chairwoman?
[17:37] ---
    You just pointed out
    that it was "in all ways."
[17:41] ---
    What are you referring to specifically?
[17:45] ---
    The magic-oriented clubs, with
    their high ratio of Course 1 students,
[17:48] ---
    clearly receive the lion's
    share of the budget
[17:52] ---
    compared to the non-magic-oriented
    clubs mainly populated by Course 2 students!
[17:55] ---
    Isn't that proof that preferential treatment
    for Course 1 students is overlooked
[17:59] ---
    even when it comes to
    extracurricular activities?
[18:06] ---
    Even non-magical clubs,
    such as the legball team,
[18:10] ---
    which has compiled an excellent
    record in national competition,
[18:15] ---
    This is no longer a forum...
[18:17] ---
    it's turning into Mayumi's
    personal bully pulpit.
[18:17] ---
    have been allotted sums that compare favorably
    to those given to the magic-oriented clubs.
[18:21] ---
    But still...
[18:22] ---
    I have no clue what they're up to...
[18:22] ---
    To say that the club budget allotments result from
    preferential treatment for the Course 1 students...
[18:25] ---
    But we can't make any
    advances ourselves...
[18:26] ---
    that's a misconception.
[18:27] ---
    Defense-only policy does
    have a nice ring to it, but...
[18:30] ---
    Chairwoman Watanabe, please don't make
    assumptions about resorting to violence...
[18:34] ---
    I know. You don't have to worry.
[18:37] ---
    I'm counting on you.
[18:37] ---
    I won't deny that there is a discrimination
    among the students that is being pointed out.
[18:44] ---
    Blooms and Weeds...
[18:46] ---
    These are terms that have been banned by the school,
    the student council, and the Disciplinary Committee,
[18:50] ---
    but unfortunately, I must admit
    that they are still in wide use.
[18:54] ---
    Hey... hey...
    Does that mean...
[18:54] ---
    It's not just Course 1 students.
[18:55] ---
    Is that cool?
[18:56] ---
    Among the Course 2 students,
[18:58] ---
    there are those who despise themselves as Weeds,
    and are resigned as well as accepting of it.
[19:01] ---
    Yes, such a lamentable
    culture does exist here.
[19:02] ---
    What's that?
[19:03] ---
    There's no such thing, dammit!
[19:05] ---
    The issue is this barrier to awareness!
[19:08] ---
    As this school's student
    council president,
[19:11] ---
    this barrier to awareness... is what
    I've wanted to somehow break down.
[19:17] ---
    But that's not something that should be resolved
    by creating new discriminatory practices.
[19:23] ---
    Every one of us, from Course 1 and
    Course 2, are students of this school...
[19:28] ---
    And the time we spend here
    as students of this school...
[19:30] ---
    for each of us, these three
    years are irreplaceable...
[19:45] ---
    I'd like to take this opportunity
    to tell you all what I hope for.
[19:51] ---
    In the student council, there is still a system
    that discriminates against Course 1 and 2 students.
[19:58] ---
    Under the current system, all officers
    except for the president must be
[20:01] ---
    nominated from among
    the Course 1 students.
[20:04] ---
    This regulation can only be overhauled
    during the general assembly
[20:08] ---
    convened during the reelection
    of the student council president.
[20:11] ---
    When I step down,
[20:13] ---
    my final task as student council president will be
    to do away with this regulation at the general assembly.
[20:19] ---
    People's hearts cannot
    be changed by force.
[20:22] ---
    And since that's not the way to go...
[20:24] ---
    I plan to make as many improvements
    as I can in all other areas.
[20:58] ---
    Chairwoman!
[20:59] ---
    Apprehend him!
[21:12] ---
    A gas bomb?
[21:13] ---
    Don't breathe in the smoke!
[21:18] ---
    All right...
[21:23] ---
    Convergence of the gas
    and a Movement Spell, huh?

[21:26] ---
    To isolate the gas bomb,
    smoke and all, in that instant...

[21:29] ---
    Very impressive!
[21:42] ---
    An MID Field!
[21:44] ---
    Did she just flood the closed space
    inside the gas masks with nitrogen?

[21:48] ---
    Intruders? Over there, too?
[22:01] ---
    Chairwoman!
[22:03] ---
    I'm going to go check out the Practical Skills
    Wing where the explosion happened!
[22:06] ---
    Shiba...
[22:07] ---
    Brother!
[22:08] ---
    I'm going with you!
[22:11] ---
    Watch your backs!
[22:14] ---
    Right!
