Y..You all...
Tired...
What's happened to you?!
They're tired from battling it out with the Orpheus Order.
They didn't even have time to breathe.
I, Ana, think I'm dog tired.
I tell ya...
I don't even wanna see a puzzle for a while.
Me too.
I, Ana, too.
Uh, I'm not that-
Right?!
I know! That is a proper high-school student's...
Nay, a proper human's state of being!
It's not too late!
For love!
For conversation, for sweets!
For study and sports!
Let's revel in the spring of our youths!
No more puzzles!
No No Way
Now, finally, you can all be normal people!
Honestly, you're making yourself look pitiful.
To think, these are the Phi-Brain children...
Erena, what are you doing here?
Wait, that uniform...
I...
have transferred to this school.
Lost
Tesaguri de sagashiteta I've searched, groping
Tozasareta mirai no kotae nante doko nimo nai The answer to a future that's been closed off
Tozasareta mirai no kotae nante doko nimo nai Is nowhere to be found
Hashiru shoudou, ima kaidoku funou The impulse to run, it's impossible to decipher now
Found
Kudaketa hazu no unmei o A fate that was supposedly smashed
Mijuku na yume no naka de kikoeta kitanda I've come to hear it within that half-formed dream:
Saigo made I'll be there for you Until the end, I'll be there for you
Tachidomaranai, kono hari dake wa It won't stop, not this needle
Boku no asu o kizamu oto o tsukisasu It will pierce the sound that engraves my tomorrow
Shinjitsu kara nigetara ima If I run from the truth, then now...
Genjitsu ni mo maketara ima If I lose to reality, then now...
Nani ga nokoru no? What will remain?
(Nokoru no?) (Will remain?)
Kazoekirenai kono kizu dake ga These countless wounds of mine
Boku no kinou o zanzou to shite kataru They tell of my yesterday as an afterimage
Unmei ga hodoketemo ima Even if fate were unraveled, now...
Sonzai o kowashitemo ima Even if my existence were smashed, now...
Boku no michi o yuku yo I will travel my path
It's now or never
That is what they say
Live your life today, yeah, yeah
There will always be, there will always be a way
That is what they say
Live your life today, yeah, yeah
There will always be, there will always be a way
That is what they say
Live your life today, yeah, yeah
Puzzle Time Won't Begin!
Erena! Erena! Erena!
Everyone, students of Root Gakuen, Erena! Erena! Erena!
nice to meet you-poo!
Nice to meet you-poo!
Aizawa-poo! Erena! Erena! Erena!
Takeda-poo! Erena! Erena! Erena!
Thank goodness I was born! Erena! Erena! Erena!
POO! Erena! Erena!
My CD's on sale, so why not buy it, poo?
We'll buy it, poo!
Pi-po-dee-poo!
Po-po-dee-poo!
How come your ass transferred here?
That's hardly important, is it?
More to the point,
you've had it rough, hadn't you?
Your fight with the Orpheus Order or whatever.
Yeah, I guess.
But thanks to that, everyone has started
to walk the path of normal people.
We've started thinking we'd like to take a week or so
to forget puzzles and take things easy.
I like I said, I'm not that-
Well, what do you say to a southern island?
Shall I take you? To a southern island?
For the reals?!
If it's to commemorate my transferring, I don't mind taking you.
Yes! That's awesome!
Incredible!
It's so big!
Miss Mizutani, Miss Sakanoue,
please don't go off on your own.
Okay!
The island's nice, isn't it?
Yes!
But was it really all right to have brought us too?
I'm not even at the same school.
What are you saying?
You've both suffered because of the Orpheus Rings, right?
Huh?
Uh, no, never mind, don't worry about it.
Also, the more friends, the more fun it is!
Hey, let go of me!
You're blushing!
Still, Nonoha couldn't make it, huh?
Approx. 12 Hours Earlier Japan Time: Around 3:00 PM
I never thought there would be a conflict with her club tournaments.
Shoot!
Attack!
Three of them, no less.
Well, knowing her, she'll probably swim her way here.
That southern island...
I will...
go there!
Just you wait!
Everyone, welcome to the POG's super-exclusive resort!
Heh, this is pretty awesome.
It's wonderful!
Yes! It's wonderful!
Yes! All right, I get first dibs!
Ah! Wait up, bastard! All right, I get first dibs!
Move!
I ain't lettin' you be the first one in!
It won't open!
What?
Oh, it's a puzzle.
What'd you say?
Look, there are plus signs on the doors.
Plus is the opposite of minus.
The opposite of "pull."
Meaning, you have to push!
Won't open, will it?
Why would this be a puzzle?
I'll say this up front:
Puzzles are forbidden while we're on the island.
Sorry, I think I might have misheard you.
What did you say?
I said, puzzles are forbidden.
Huh?!
Hey, that's goin' a little far.
Nonoha asked me:
To make sure you all don't do any puzzles.
What'd you say? Nonoha?!
This is a vacation.
Forget about puzzles.
It's so pretty!
There's ocean everywhere you turn!
This is a solitary island in a faraway sea.
There's ocean 360 degrees, on all sides.
Just relax and enjoy yourself.
Thank you, Miss Erena!
Just call me "Erena."
We're the same age, right?
Okay, Erena!
Whoa, this room is awesome!
What's that?
The whole room is nothing but puzzles!
And they're all pretty good ones!
This is a POG resort, all right.
It's like being inside a toy chest.
I'm gonna solve 'em all!
No, I'm gonna solve way more than you!
Puzzles are forbidden! Got it?
Yes...
Okay, okay, let's go to the beach.
Well? This is a celeb getting serious!
Yes, it feels great.
Ana, you're so pretty!
I..It's a bit frustrating though.
Now hurry up!
Get in the ocean!
Dammit!
What're you doin'?!
I'm bored.
Let us do some puzzles!
Yeah, open up that puzzle room!
Fine, then grovel on all fours and beg.
Then I'll think about-
Please, Mistress Erena!
Do you all have no pride?
Forget it, puzzles are forbidden.
Pizzlu reem, woll upin.
Huh? What?
His words have become a puzzle!
Oh, he's switching out the vowels!
Pizzlu reem...
woll upin!
Kaito's desires have crossed the threshold!
Tuka tho kiy!
Tuka tho kiy Take the key
I told you, puzzles are forbidden, didn't I?!
Pizzlu reem woll upin!
Feels like youth, huh? Pizzlu reem woll upin!
Um, I'm not sure.
Pizzlu, pizzlu, pizzlu!
Enough of this!
As if I'd ever give it to you!
Wench! What about the key?!
Like I care!
Wh..What's that?
What?
"Puzzle"?
What is that stone?
A monument or something?
Well, this is a POG island.
Could it be a Puzzle of Fools?
Impossible...
You know this?
But why is it here?
What they call the most horrible thing the POG ever produced...
It's...
No more puzzles!
Give me tropical paradise!
H..Hey, you all!
So, it's a crazy dangerous puzzle, right?
Then, we've gotta solve it!
"Puzzle time, let's begin," huh?
Hey, that's-
I, Ana, will work to solve it too!
At least listen...
till I'm done talking.
I swear!
It's in there.
Ready to go?!
Wait!
I thought this might happen, so...
There could be some strange bugs here.
Hey, we're goin'!
Don't fall behind!
This is...
The path branches off.
So, this is the first puzzle.
Right or left?
One out of two, huh?
It's simple, but the level of difficulty is high!
But there are no hints or anything.
Can we really solve this?
Don't worry, Cubik.
If it's a puzzle, there's sure to be a hint.
Somewhere, that is.
If it's a puzzle.
Dammit, where's the hint?!
I'm telling you, what's here isn't a puzzle; it's-
I knew it!
Looking through this crack here...
The answer is "Right"!
RIGHT
That's my Kaito, all right!
I'll get the next one.
Not a damn chance!
Having a Japanese character here is just strange!
Jeez!
Look carefully!
There are no more places to look.
Don't give up, it's gotta be here!
Stick with it, stick with it!
What this time?
A..A skull!
So, that's where it was.
Okay, now it's finished!
That puzzle was a lotta work.
Let's go to the next one.
Yeah!
Stop!
I've been telling you to listen to me, haven't I?
Okay, what's in here isn't a puzzle.
What's hidden in here is-
Antoinette...
You can't fool us like that anymore.
I don't know what Nonoha told you,
but we will solve this puzzle.
Releasing dangerous puzzles is our mission.
No matter how many people try to stop us.
All right, on to the next puzzle!
Yeah!
Okay!
Poifect! Okay!
Complete!
It's a magic square, huh?
No mistake about it.
This cell is 11.
The cells not filled in by dirt or sand
make a 6 x 6 magic square.
I get it.
Well, let's hurry and get started.
Both of you, follow my instructions. Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!
Just do what you want. Hooray! Hooray!
Finished!
Yes!
Okay, on to the next one.
I'm definitely solving this one.
No way that will happen!
We should solve it together.
Everyone getting along is the best, huh?
Where did they go, my brother and the others?
Find them?
Uh, no.
I didn'tt see them either.
Do you think something happened to them?
If Himekawa's with them, I don't think we have to worry.
Everyone!
In looking for Kaito and the others, I found something most grave!
It looks like the next one's the last stage.
Wh..What's this?
For the reals?
Wow!
That's...
This is a puzzle?
It's Puzzla.
Puzzla?
Yes.
The heck is that?
I told you, didn't I?
The most horrible thing the POG ever produced.
Oh, so what was written on the sign at the entrance was...
Yes, "Puzzla."
This isn't some puzzle!
You get that now, right?
No.
This is a puzzle too.
Are you an idiot?
I can hear it...
The puzzle's voice.
"Solve me."
That's what it's saying!
Whether it's a puzzle or not, I'm gonna do it!
I'm the one who'll do it in the end!
Look, how could this be a puzzle!
Jeez!
It don't look like a puzzle at first glance, but that's a trap!
Great job, Kaito!
I've got it! That!
That shell's gotta be the puzzle, no doubt!
What?
True enough, those look like numbers.
All right, I'm doin' it!
Wait up! All right, I'm doin' it!
Scary...
I thought we were done for.
Puzzla's frame is old and will collapse easily, so be careful, 'kay?
You shoulda said that!
I tried to but you wouldn't listen!
U..U..Uncle!
What is this?
Beats me.
Be careful.
Yes, I know.
Hey, look.
Are those footprints?!
A bit bigger than your wife's, aren't they?
I'm not so sure.
Wait, come to think of it...
What is it?
I've heard of this.
It must be...
There's something there!
It's Puzzla!
This is called "Great Monster Puzzla."
It's a sci-fi film the POG made long ago.
They spent a ton of money on the budget, but it was a major flop.
I bet.
Its existence is now the darkest spot on the POG's history.
It is forbidden to even be spoken of.
It's that horrible.
I never dreamed it was filmed on this island.
Thus, Puzzla sunk into the darkest of dark depths.
However,
as long as foolish humans continue to long for puzzles,
a second or even third Puzzla...
could be born, yes?!
Still, solving a puzzle that doesn't even exist...
You guys really are genius-level puzzle fools.
Now you get it, right?
Trying to have us rest without puzzles
was doomed from the start.
Especially for this super fool of a puzzle fool.
What was that?!
Oops, I spoke the truth.
Honestly...
Fine, then starting now, I'll use puzzles to smack you guys around.
Puzzle drill camp will now begin!
I'll use the puzzles here to put
you through some special training.
How's that?
Suits me fine!
But first, what about the key to the puzzle room
that you threw away?
Well, it's gone, so that's that, huh?
Hey!
Just give up on...
Nonoha?!
No way!
Nonoha!
Hey...
Don't tell me...
Nonoha!
Nonoha...
There was no boat, so...
I swam here.
There's no "heh" about it.
That's some crazy determination.
It was tough.
That's...
The key to the puzzle room!
Sorry for the wait, everyone!
Come, let's revel in the spring of our youths!
Let's get our tropical time started!
Nonoha!
Great job!
What?
We found the key!
Let's get our special puzzle training started!
Nonoha, you hurry up and come too!
Huh?!
Thank you, Nonoha!
We did it!
Wait, dammit!
I leave this to you! Wait, dammit!
I leave this to you! What's the meaning of this?
What about beach volleyball?
Splitting watermelons?
Tropical fruit?
You're saying you don't want to see my sexy bikini?
Seems like fun, Erena.
Hey! Hey! What're you doing, Kaito?
Good thing you transferred, huh?
Look, don't try to hide in the water.
I don't especially...
Hey! What about my tropical time?!
Hey, I swam six hours to get here!
HEY!
Come on, just give it up, Nonoha.
Women should have good grace.
No way!

They've been driven off by the smell of our sweat.
Imbecile!
Work is suppoed to make you sweat!
Okay, let's haul this portable puzzle shrine to the temple.
That will increase our puzzle abilities threefold!
Even Nonoha Wants to Solve Them!
Next time, "Even Nonoha Wants to Solve Them!"
Go, go, Naoki, Naoki!
