Meme...
Meme, wake up.
We're supposed to plant Halloween pumpkins together today, remember?
Imagine, pumpkins growing from sprouts like this.
I've never heard of such a thing.
Look, Miss Anya is raring to go.
Tsugumi, more, please.
Huh?
Whoa! Hold on!
Meme!
Oh, how soft...
we wanna be there even if we had to twist the world all around to get there
without you, i guess i couldn't even find the future here today
i was always trying to take nothing for granted
for the day i might lose them
but you just came in to my black and white monochrome destiny
and colored it all over
we won't be satisfied with the routine future
we were born to make a new history come true
there's absolutely no absolute thing in this world
this road goes on forever
as long as we won't give up
Pumpkin Growing!
They say that plants grow better when you sing to them.
Oh, is that right?
Yes. Probably.
More commoners' wisdom, huh?
Sweltering Nights!
Ugh, it's so hot...
Whoa! Meme is walking around in her sleep again.
Too hot...
Why are you stripping down?!
You can't do that, even if it is hot.
If you sleep with your tummy exposed, you'll catch a cold.
Too hot...
Tsugumi, you've got something tasty hidden away here, huh?
What are you talking about, Meme?
No hoarding it all to yourself. Give me some, too.
W-Whoa, Meme! What are you doing?! Stop!
As hot as it is now, you two are clinging to each other again?!
So this is Miss Meme's fabled drunken boxing, is it?
I know you're grouchy about it being too hot to sleep, but calm down!
She may look ridiculously slatternly,
but her guard is perfect.
I've always wanted to try my hand against Miss Meme's drunken boxing.
Miss Anya, it's not right to do this to Meme when she's half-asleep!
Miss Tsugumi, this is a good chance for you to determine
which one of us is more fit to be your partner, right?
Aw, geez...
Tsugumi... my good buddy...
Here goes!
She threw me as though she were tossing in her sleep.
So these are the moves of a sleeping person?
This is... drunken boxing!
I'll stop you!
Cramp!
A leg cramp?!
Ah... That hurt...
Her moves are too tricky; there's no way to predict them.
Stop! Stop! Stop!
I know it's too hot to sleep,
but this thrashing about is keeping us even more awake.
We've got an early start tomorrow, so let's hurry and get to sleep!
If we end things like this, I'll have an even worse night of sleep.
If you keep making this racket,
there's no telling what Miss Kim next door will say to us.
Just close your eyes, and you'll fall asleep.
I'll be collecting a nuisance fee for sure!
So hot...!
So hot, so hot...!
Hey!
So hot!
H-H-Hey!
Y-You're wide open!
You're wide open!
You can't avoid my attack with your shorts down around your knees!
It's over!
Ah... that's cool...
Feels good...
How can you dare to behave like that?!
Miss Anya, why don't you come sleep like this, too.
She says it's cooler, and feels good.
Come on.
The warmth from you two is so... hot.

Oblivious!
How did I get like this?
This is the girls' dorm kitchen, right?
Money? And so much of it!
What do I do?! I don't remember a thing!
Are you okay?!
Is something the matter?!
What kind of getup is that?
It's nothing at all.
Oh! Meme, your eyebrows...
- Huh? - Huh?
You're missing one of them.
Meme!
Huh? Eternal Feather, ma'am...
Here!
Huh?
Eh?! What is this?
That's what I was going to ask.
Sloth.
What did I do yesterday that made me wind up like this?
I had Tsugumi draw on a new eyebrow...
Yo!
Ah, Kim, ma'am...
That's an odd hat.
Miss Kim!
Was I doing anything unusual yesterday?
Unusual? I did see you running down Grissom Street.
Grissom Street?
You were wearing a jersey and everything. Weren't you jogging?
What, you don't remember, even though you were doing it?
Oh, come to think of it,
there may have been a boy saying something like "Wait up!"
Thank you very much.
Oh, one more thing!
Your eyebrows were cuter the other way.
Why would I have been running along here?
Not to mention a boy, and all this money.
Ah! Maybe I was running to deliver the ransom for a kidnapped boy!
Oh, the young lady from yesterday!
Such a pretty face to be doing something so crazy.
Who knew you would actually do it!
Do it? What are you talking about?
You don't mean, yesterday...?
I see you, young lady!
How dare you take my precious... Give it back to me!
Here.
No, not that! It may be small, but it's my reason for living!
Um, I don't remember anything.
You don't remember?! Don't give me that!
I'm sorry!
Ah! Hold on, there!
Watch out!
A casino?
Why do you look like you're in need?
This is Vegas.
Give us a break today.
M-My head...
Marianne?
Thank goodness! I was so worried, Marianne!
That's right! I remember!
Yesterday, I was jogging along Grissom Street...
Why don't you pull a street stall while you run?
It will make for better training.
Believing him, I pulled the souvenir dealer's cart,
and sprinted all-out!
but I was going too fast, and crashed at the turn!
I was at a loss as to what to do, when...
Why do you look like you're in need?
This is Vegas.
After I hit the jackpot, won enough money for the repairs,
and made the proprietor cry,
I forgot what it was that I was doing.
As for why I was out jogging to begin with, the reason was...
I ran into this young boy, who was walking his sloth in the park.
It was then that he said to me...
Let me go!
You fat lady!
Not again!
I'm fat?!
Just you wait, young man!
Ah! Marianne!
After returning to the dorm from the casino,
and leaving the sloth with Miss Eternal Feather, who I passed by,
I went to the bathroom and got on the scale, when...
Fat
I've gained weight!
Shocked by how heavy I was,
and determined to set the dial back even a tick,
I shaved off my eyebrow.
I'd forgotten to take off all the souvenirs.
I was able to pay for the damages to the stall, though.
I wonder if there are other times
when I've forgotten things like this.
Both troubled times and happy times.
I don't want to forget my memories with you.
I wonder if I will.
Do you think Meme is all right? She's been acting a little strange.

Three-man Baseball!
What could these be?
A bat, a ball, and a glove?
And a catcher's mitt, at that!
A glove? For holding stove pots?
For the national pastime, baseball!
"Baseball"?
This is a great chance! Would you like to try playing some baseball?
Miss Tsugumi sure seems worked up over this, huh?
Long ago, I used to play baseball with my brother and my dog, Pochi,
out at the vacant lot.
Is this "baseball" a commoners' sport?
It's a sport popular among commoners.
That leaves me little choice. All right, I'll accompany you.
Hooray!
All right, Miss Anya, would you like to be our first batter?
I'll start out as the pitcher!
Okay, and I'll take flies!
Oh, there she goes.
A fly is a ball hit high in the air by a batter, not a position.
As far as the positions you cover, they're "right" or "center."
Never mind that, let's hurry and play!
Oh, how gallant of you.
The bat and the glove are mutually exclusive, Lady Anya.
You'll never hold both at the same time.
If those two ever got mixed together,
baseball would fall apart!
Aren't you getting a little crazy over baseball?
You're acting a little creepy, Miss Tsugumi.
Ahem...
Okay, I'll explain baseball in simple terms.
I'll pitch the ball, and Miss Anya, you'll hit it with the bat.
Simple?
Eh? That's all baseball is? That's no fun.
Wait, how can you say that?!
Real baseball is played nine against nine,
and the games are played in huge stadiums!
Something as dull as this? You don't need 18 people to do this.
You've got it wrong!
Okay, fine! If that's how you want it, face one pitch from me!
Allow me to show you just how intense baseball is!
In that case, please give me the bat.
Oh, right.
Oh, no! I was so caught up in my challenge to show her baseball,
but we're talking about Miss Anya, here.
I never thought of myself as being unathletic before coming to DWMA,
but there's no way I can beat a meister.
Then again, however athletically gifted Miss Anya may be,
she's never played baseball. It's too soon to give up yet.
Miss Tsugumi, what are you waiting for? Hurry and throw the ball.
Her batting form is a disaster, after all.
And this ball...
A light rubber ball like this will be easy to spice up
with some air resistance. Miss Anya doesn't know baseball.
She's never seen a fastball, let alone a breaking ball.
This could work!
All right, here goes!
Bring it on!
I don't care, give me anything!
Just break!
It broke inside and hopped! That makes it fairly hard to hit...
Royal spear technique!
A thrust?!
What the...?!
Nice batting!
I knew it.
Sure, Meme ended up knocking it down with a super fine play,
but I've been soundly defeated. I'm sorry, Brother.
I wasn't able to demonstrate the intensity of baseball to her.
Nice catch.
It was an amazing hit.
Miss Tsugumi,
I've never seen a ball move like that. It was very exciting.
Baseball sure is fun.
Really?
Hey, girls!
That glove, bat and ball are mine!
Huh?

From Death City with Love...
Are you writing a letter?
Yes. I'm sending it to my family back in Japan.
Don't you two ever write?
I plan to send them some items of interest,
and have them learn more about their uniqueness.
Oh, yeah? What about you, Meme?
I'm having a little trouble remembering.
Is she evading the question?
Hmm? It's the middle of the night...
Are those cousins to the messenger pigeons, messenger bats?!
No developments in the witch Shaula investigation, then?
She's been keeping herself scarce since the Eternal Feather incident.
If she's a control-type witch, I doubt she can be too far away,
but we still don't have any leads as to where she is.
This may have nothing to do with witches, but...
Lately, there has been a rash of robberies within DWMA.
This is a list of the stolen items.
The restricted browsing collections and past investigation records.
They're after information of a fairly high secret level.
A list of meisters and weapons?
We haven't been able to make any links to Shaula yet.
If we're lucky, this could be the breakthrough in our investigation.
Keep running down this thread.
Right.
That's all for today. Thanks for staying so late.
Not at all. It's our duty.
You won't be able to enter this year's Battle Festival, either.
The Battle Festival is a tournament for the EAT class.
And since we're now in the NOT class...
Maybe we can dress up, and get some candy, instead.
Huh?
The Battle Festival is held on Halloween, after all.
We could dress up as witches to hunt for witches.
Are you serious?
It's your job to be skeptical, but you sure do buy things easily, Clay.

Trick or Treat.
With a big wave and a "See you,"
let's meet in the new day
Our shadows stretch along the pavement
coming together, then apart, then together
What do I say when the road home ends?
You are not alone. Nope, right nearby,
there are eyes looking back at you
And just like a miracle,
they can turn even failures into laughter
Thank you for a fun day
Let's do it again tomorrow
We'll open a brand-new door
chasing after dreams and love
and those nameless feelings, too
I'm sorry I hurt you, Tsugumi.
Meme? Meme, where are you going?!
I can't believe we're parting like this.
Miss Anya? What's going on? You, too, Miss Anya?
This isn't a dream, is it?
Next time; The Beginning of the Nightmare!
