Smile!
It's okay if you just fake it. Smile.
Fake it?
Yeah, just fake it so you can figure out what it's like.
How's this, Master?
All wrong!
What are you doing?
I was teaching Icarus how to smile.
How to smile?
She keeps saying she wants to be more human.
So, I was trying to get her at least to smile.
You don't really have to mean the smile, but at least you should try mimicking it.
See? Smile. This is a smile.
Grin.
You can't just say it!
You didn't manage the slightest thing!
Smile.
You're just saying the word! You're not even smiling!
Smirk.
I came here to take Alpha back, but...
I can hear my heart bell

What do you expect me to do?

But then, again...
kimi wa nannimo shiranai keredo
君は何にも知らないけれど
you know nothing of it.
In the Age of Exploration the Europeans discovered the New World,
embarked upon colonialism and expanded globally.
Not even Japan was spared.
It's said that, in those days, a significant number of Japanese citizens...
...were treated like slaves and carted off to Europe.
Hideyoshi Toyotomi, the ruler of the time, realized this and exiled the Jesuits from the country.
This is generally considered the starting point for Japan's isolationism.
The slave trade existed underneath the flashy facade Western diplomats had painted.
Their desires could only be satisfied by treating people like animals or cattle.
It's very likely that even in the New World hovering in the skies...
...there exists a new type of slavery used to satisfy the desires of its inhabitants.
The Chain Which Doesn't Grant Escape
Hm, you want to know how to smile?
That's what I said. She just can't smile.
Is there a good way to teach her?
Smiling is something that happens naturally.
Oh I know, Icarus-san. Try raising your hands above your head.
Above my head...
Gotcha!
Tickles, doesn't it?
This should make even you smile-
What? What's going on?
Looks like it tickled.
That's the wrong reaction.
No! Absolutely wrong! That's not how you tickle someone!
I'll show you!
This tickles.
T-Tomo-chan...
S-Stop it...
Th-This is bad.
What the hell are you doing?!
I don't know what I can do to make myself smile.
I know.
What? You want to know how to smile.
Give her some advice.
Takehara was acting pretty weird.
Totally.
There's no point in asking someone who doesn't smile himself.
Let's go, Alpha.
What do I have to do to smile?
Beats me.
Oh, if it isn't Icarus-chan and Nymph-chan!
You want to know how to smile, huh?
Yeah, it's difficult.
Student Council Room
Hey, when do you smile?
Let's see...
When I hit... someone or something with a flyswatter as hard as I can.
Sto-
Stop!
Tomoki?
Funny as hell...
Dammit, guys...
I'm sorry.
Well, who cares?
It's not like you were going to die.
I care! Don't put her up to weird stuff like that!
So, were you able to smile at all, Alpha?
No, not yet...
Oh yeah, it's almost Christmas.
Yeah! Why don't we have a Christmas party at Tomoki's place this Sunday?
I'm sure if we all have fun, smiling will come to Icarus-san.
I see.
Sounds fun.
Come on, Tomo-chan. Let's do it.
I'll get my mom to bake us a cake.
We'll put up decorations and swap presents.
Ah, I don't mind.
Okay, Sunday then. It's a date.
Why can't I smile?
Your emotional protections should have been lifted a while ago.
You were created for combat, so maybe you simply can't.
I was created for combat...
Well, smiling's pretty simple. You shouldn't worry about it so much.
It's not simple.
I mean, I... haven't seen you smile before either.
What? What are you saying?
I haven't seen you smile.
I haven't seen you smile in a long time...
You're right.
We Angeloids may not be able to smile from the bottom of our heart.
I also have a feeling that something is bothering you.
I'm not really sure what it is though.
Okay, then let's think about what we can do to smile as Angeloids!
Okay.
Man, I'm hungry.
Hey, Icarus.
Yes, Master?
Good morning, Master.
Calm down! Tomoki, calm down!
She has wings, you know! Wings!
Is something the matter?
N-No...
She has really big boobs! I mean...
No. Wait a second. Wait.
Wait!
You're all red, Master.
Huh? You're... what are you doing?
Your face is stuck!
So, it didn't work after all? We went through all the trouble of sticking our faces in this expression with glue...
Are you guys idiots?
Hurry up and go wash your faces!
Weren't you feeling just a bit happy just now, Tomoki?
Shut up!
You no longer smile when you're with me, do you?
Th-That's right...
I have an idea. Why don't we go on a date?
If we drive down that tree-lined road again, perhaps you will smile once more.
What's a date?
Tomoki,
I had a great idea.
Let's go on a date. All three of us.
What?!
You guys... do you even know what a date is?
Dates are things couples go on - a boy and a girl.
So, you can't go with three people?
That's not really the problem...
Then, who cares?
Sohara said that if we do something fun, Alpha might be able to smile, right?
Besides...
I'm sure we'll have a great time.
A date with Master...
What is this? Am I excited?
Well, whatever.
Let's get this date started.
What do you do on a date?
Well, on a date...
What will we do indeed...
Sakurai Tomoki, you've never been popular in your entire life.
There's no way you'd have gone on a date before.
How to Date
Hey, let me borrow that.
Go shopping on a date.
If you get her something she wants, then her stock in you will go up.
Got it!
Okay. All of you, go buy anything you want!
Oh yeah, it's almost Christmas.
I have to think of a present myself.
Master, I've bought something.
Are you stocking up a grocery store?!
Nymph, isn't there anything you want to buy?
I thought about it, but I'm good.
Even if you buy something for me, it'd be meaningless by now.
I see.
There's many more places we can go on a date.
How about a sappy romance movie?
Are there any movies you want to see?
How about this one?
Not a chance!
Why not?
Master, what about this one?
Scarecrow Rangers: Watermelon Men
Let's skip the movies.
Scarecrow Rangers: Watermelon Men
Next is...
How about we go and meet some of the friendly mascots at the theme park?
Stop that!
Well, now that we're here we might as well go on a ride.
Master is happy.
The world is spinning around me!
I feel awful.
Are you okay?
My date with Master is fun, but...
There's something missing.
You're pathetic. Come on. Let's get going.
Stand up, Tomoki.
Starting system scan.
All systems: No damage.
No faults reported in organic structure.
Reactor: No anomalies.
All green.
What was that just now?
It was as though I felt pain in my reactor for a split-second.
Wow.
Man, so she's finally calmed down.
I'm going to get some tea or something.
Take your time, both of you.
I wish Tomoki was my master. But he's... not.
Hey, Alpha.
Why are these animals locked up in a cage?
I don't know.
Maybe this cage is like our chokers.
If that was the case, you'd want to run away.
Isn't that right, Alpha?
If these animals were able to leave their cages and walk around freely, I'm sure they'd be happy.
What?
I wonder if Tomoki would be happy if they could run away.
Master...
Master... would be happy.
Hey, Alpha.
Wait, Alpha!
Master would be...
Master would be... happy!
Peace and quiet really is the best.
No!
It's them! This is their doing!
Hey, wait!
Master would be happy.
Master would...
...be happy.
All of you calm down!
Please go back to your cages!
What?! There's a naked man running around the park destroying all the cages?!
All cars, proceed to the scene immediately!
I repeat: proceed to the scene immediately!
Is this some new kind of terrorism?!
Code Red!
He's messing with us!
Damn it!
We're going to take back the peace!
Earlier this afternoon, a naked man wreaked havoc on a local theme park.
I thought he might do something like this at some point.
He was a nice guy.
Death penalty!
I demand the death penalty!
But I'm innocent!
I'm sorry, Master.
I've had enough! Let's go home!
You've done lots of date-y stuff now, right?
I think there's still more for us to do.
L-Like what?
Are you dumb?!
It says here you're meant to kiss at the end of a date.
K-Kiss? You're supposed to only kiss the person who's in your heart.
I see...
So, you can only kiss one person...
Hey, Alpha?
I want to try it.
That's okay, isn't it, Alpha?
Hey!
Listen to me!
Tomoki.
Hey, where are you going?!
Don't leave me here!
Wh-What should I do?
Wait! Stop!
I'm sorry.
I was just kidding.
What is this feeling?
Am I thinking of Tomoki?
Hey, are you okay?
It's nothing! My reactor's just acting a little weird!
Don't hit me!
I did something bad to Alpha.
Huh?
Hey, wait!
I'm sorry, Alpha.
I just wanted to have some memories left for myself.
But I have enough now.
Reactor working at 100%.
The time I spent with the two of you...
It was short, but it was fun.
It's all right, Alpha.
Even if you can't smile, as long as Tomoki is your master, he'll care about you forever.
My reactor...
It hurts.
You just ran off and now you've come back all dirty.
I'm sorry, Master.
Nymph went home too.
What's going on? Man.
We went on a date and I wasn't able to smile at all.
Come on, we're going home.
Dates continue until the couple goes home.
Okay.
So, you're free now.
I'm glad.
Goodbye, Alpha.
Goodbye, Tomoki.

Well then, where should I go?
The sea? Or maybe to a deserted place in the mountains?
I'm sure if I just go somewhere and disappear quietly, no one will notice.
Or maybe it'd be funny to head back to the Synapse with this bomb.
I wonder what my master would say to that.
Gamma!
