I've always had an image in my head.
It was a landscape you would see anywhere.
The scenery I've seen countless times in my dream.
But I have never been there.
They tell me it's because I took Inglobe's Antifeminas.
But I didn't really care.
I just wanted to look for something.
So I went on a journey.
Huh? An emergency?
I ran into a debris field?
How?
They're doing a cleanup in this area?
Please, Rinon!
Take control of the ship!
Warp as soon as the ship stabilizes!
Please! Take me to that place!
Just a little more...
Life signal at the predicted landing site?!
I must have...
been seeking that place.
I'll Be Waiting That Summer
hoho wo sugiru shiokaze
The sea breeze blows past my cheeks
kimi wa damatteru dake
You still remain silent
hontou wa sono yokogao furete mitai no ni
To be honest, I want to feel that pretty face in my hand
kuchizuketa ki ga shiteta
It feels like we've kissed
are wa sou yume no naka
But it was in my dream
genjitsu no kyoukai wo kaze ga sarau
The wind blows away the boundary of reality
nanigenai kotoba de kagayakidashita nichijou
Your casual words lit up my ordinary life
itsuka mita eiga mitai dane
It's like that movie we watched
kisetsu ga meguri meguttemo
Even if the seasons came and went
bokura wo zutto matteru
I can smell the scent of summer that
kogeta film no you na natsu no kaori
smells like burning film waiting for us
tsuite kienai yokan
The permanently recorded feeling
nozoita lens tobikoete
will pass through the viewfinder and lens
sono te wo tsukamu kara
to clasp your hand
Nanami! Nanami!
Kanna?
Oh, I just had this weird dream.
I saw an illusion of Kai being embraced by a girl surrounded by light...
Yeah, she was really cute...
Actually, she was a really beautiful girl.
Yes, just like that girl sitting...
Over there...
Nanami!
Can you explain what's going on?
Before I start, please don't misunderstand.
Misunderstand what?
Like what's in your mind right now.
Anyway, she's-
Takatsuki Ichika.
She transferred as a senior to our school.
Correct.
Takatsuki Ichika, huh?
Nice to meet you.
I'm Kai's sister, Nanami.
I'm sorry for my intrusion.
You should definitely be!
Why is she at your place? You two just met today.
W-Well...
A-Actually...
There's been a malfunction in the Quan Linkage,
then the alternator took damage, and I didn't know what to do.
In addition there was irreparable damage to the Inglobe, and...
I don't get what you're saying... It sounds difficult.
Simply put, there was a mistake and she doesn't have anywhere to stay.
And she doesn't have any money.
I ran into her on my way back,
then she told me about her situation.
So I thought I'd let her stay for a night.
I mean, we can't just leave her out there.
Like, she might actually camp out there by herself.
Oh, that's what happened.
Question!
Why were you embracing him by the door?
We weren't!
Th-That was...
You were?!
Kaito's Alta Rate was...
No, he didn't seem well, so I was taking care of him.
Oh, right.
I suddenly felt sick, and lost consciousness...
Are you sick?
I don't know, but I'm fine now.
Taking care?
You were taking care of him?
By pressing your chest against him?
That's an interesting way of taking care of somebody.
An embrace is going to cure his illness?
That's how we do it on our planet!
Your planet?
My hometown!
Where are you from?
Pleia-
I mean...
Up north.
Like Hokkaido?
No, even farther...
So you're from another country?
Something like that.
Ooh! You came by yourself to study abroad from so far away?
You're so amazing!
Your Japanese is really good, too!
Thanks.
I see. I kind of get it now.
That's good.
But you should've contacted your parents in your hometown if something came up.
Well, I...
Ichika?
Um, is something wrong?
I understand how you feel...
You're an esper?!
Takatsuki.
No, my dear Ichika.
I'm sorry for making you remember something so sad.
Kai and I lost our parents, so I know how you feel...
I can painfully feel your sorrow!
Hey, Nanami?
W-Well, that's how it is.
Can we let her stay for a night?
Just a night?
She can stay however long she wants.
What?!
Nanami?
Well, I'll be gone for a long business trip anyway.
I was just thinking I need someone to take care of Kai.
There's nothing to worry if it's a senior from the same school,
and she's a girl, so she can cook and do the laundry!
I-I'll do my best!
I'm counting on you!
You're too soft on them!
How can boys and girls of their age live under the same roof?!
We have to help each other out when needed.
And Kai's a nice guy, so even if a pretty girl is living with him...
he won't do anything strange, or strange, or strange, right?
Right?
O-Of course not.
What?!
He just paused! He was thinking about it!
I wasn't!
That's the look of a liar!
What kind of look is that?
Look into a mirror!
We've settled.
I really appreciate you letting me stay.
Sister.
Call me Sis!
Okay, Miss Sis!
This is like a bride's greeting.
I'll go send her home.
Are you mad about something?
No.
Listen, Tanigawa.
She is...
You're just being nice, right?
You just helped her out when she was in need, right?
Y-Yeah, that's right.
That's all there is to it.
Okay, I believe you.
I'm fine by myself.
See you tomorrow!
See you tomorrow, huh?
What? That pretty girl is staying in Kirishima's home?
What's going on, Kanna?
I don't know, but it somehow turned out that way.
But Kirishima's family is with him, so...
His sister is going on a business trip tomorrow.
Whoa, are you serious?
That's a huge plot twist!
What should I do, Tetsurou?
Now it's decided.
What is?
The meeting place for tomorrow.
I'm home.
Welcome back.
Dinner's ready.
Is something wrong?
N-No. Nothing.
Uh... where is my sister?
She said she's going to pack.
She already went back to her room after dinner.
Oh, I see.
Pasta and miso soup?
A staple combination, right?
Scratch the combination part.
Did I do something wrong?
No! It's fine.
Thanks for cooking.
How is it?
A-Are you okay?
Does it taste bad?
That's not it, but...
There's a hint of sourness...
Is this chilled noodle?
Yes. It's such a hot day, so I thought something chilled would be nice.
Uh, it was just the unexpected flavor that caught me off guard.
This chilled pasta is pretty good.
May I ask you a question?
What is it?
Why did you come here to study?
There was a place I wanted to go.
Where is it?
Somewhere around here?
I can show you the way, if you'd like.
Well, I don't know where.
What do you mean?
There are trees and a lake...
There's nothing special about it, but...
Then it's impossible to find.
You're right.
But I want to see it.
What a crazy day.
And I have to see everyone tomorrow for the meeting.
How do I explain it to everyone?
That reminds me, what's this?
Another spot?
Right, just a bit earlier...
An embrace is going to cure his illness?
Embrace?
Oh, no! I have to get right to treatment!
Pain, pain, go away!
No way!
Like that'll happen.
It's no use.
It doesn't look like it can be repaired.
Rinon, how's the Quan Linkage?
It's completely bugged.
I won't regret it.
I got to this planet, after all.
Maybe the fatigue was all built up.
I passed out immediately after I went to bed.
I didn't even dream.
Episode Two
Together With Senpai...
Kaito... Kaito.
Wake up, Kaito.
Miss Sis is going to leave soon.
It's already this late?
Wh-What?
That nightgown...
Oh, I borrowed it from Miss Sis.
But this land's pajamas are kind of revealing...
Y-Y-Yeah...
Kai, I'm heading out!
I'm gonna cry if you don't see me out!
I'm coming!
Kaito, watch your health.
Be careful with your spending, too.
Study well, get along with your friends, and don't stay up too late.
I'll miss you. Take care!
Ichika.
Take care of Kai.
Come on, it's time to leave.
She's finally gone.
Kaito.
Do you miss her already?
Yeah... A little.
Oh, right.
There's somewhere I want to stop by.
Somewhere to stop by?
My sister asked me to.
Miss Sis did?
We need to get you some clothes.
She's kind of weird at times...
But...
She's cute.
This should be enough.
Thank you.
It was so much fun!
Shopping really is a girl's best pleasure!
I have to thank Miss Sis, too!
We can wait until she calls.
Right. Let's do that.
Huh? It's open.
Why...
Oh, you took your time.
I was getting tired of waiting.
Yo!
Welcome home.
W-Why are you...?
Didn't we say we're having a meeting for the movie yesterday?
Sorry, but I decided to meet up here without asking.
That's not what I meant!
Oh? Shopping like a couple already?
No!
Wait, how did you guys get in?
You should use a better lock.
Don't pick my lock.
That's definitely a crime!
Oh, but I have to do proper research.
About where my best friend is staying.
H-How did you know...
Tanigawa!
Now that everyone is here,
we will begin the first meeting to decide the plot for Director Kirishima's film.
We will begin for the sake of beginning.
Whoo! Director!
Why are you calling me that?
Why is she in charge?
What's the problem? She's older than us anyway.
And what kind of movie are we making?
Sign: Mechanical...
My script will become a movie.
By the way, it took me 20 years to develop and 5 years to write.
Whoa!
What kind of story is it?
It's a story set in the 23rd Century where mechanical armored crafts decide the fate of the world.
An epic entertainment film that will blow Hollywood away.
That's impossible.
Don't worry, everything will be done in CG.
Maybe we won't even need a camera.
Shouldn't we do something simpler?
How about a school drama?
I'm sure our school will allow us to film there.
That sure is simple.
What about the story?
How about this?
Zombies suddenly swarm the school.
The protagonists who survive...
That's impossible.
Ichika, do you have any requests?
Kirishima, you've got guts.
Me?
You're the starring actress, so tell me what you want.
Help!
I don't really have a story, but I want beautiful scenery.
I just got here, so I want to go to all the different places and see different things.
There was a place I wanted to go.
Uh, I'm sorry.
That's selfish...
I think it's a good idea.
Let's film in different places.
It's almost summer break, anyway.
I like that.
We'll get to play while filming.
We'll kill two birds with one stone.
I think we'll just end up playing the whole time.
What's wrong with that?
It's not like we have to make a movie.
Let's go to a lot of places.
We might find the place you wanted to go.
Thank you, Kaito!
Let's think about the story later.
And let's toast in hope of a successful filming for the movie.
O-Okay...
Well then, cheers.
Cheers!
What's this drink?
It tastes strange.
But there's a certain sweetness that makes it yummy!
May I have seconds?
Yes.
I brought lots, so drink all you want.
Quads, and I'm done!
What?!
Grin.
Hey, Remon!
What's this drink called?
Dynamite Drink.
I see! Sounds explosive!
Dynamite, huh?
Are you okay?
I'm kind of buzzed.
Buzzed?
Yes. My body feels so hot.
Hot?
Yes.
O-Oh, I see.
Th-That's not good!
Hey! What are you two doing?!
C'mere!
What is it, Tanigawa?
I bet you just got annoyed because I cockblocked you!
Didn't you?
Nope!
What about you?
I didn't.
You're staying here, right?
Y-Yes...
You're living together?!
I guess so.
It's almost summer break.
Just two of you, all day.
Just two?!
Well
Ichika!
Y-Yes?
Let me be blunt.
How do you feel about Kaito?
W-Well...
Kaito helped me out when I was in need...
That's not what I meant!
I'm asking you about how you feel about him!
Well.
Well...
W-Why?
What is that?
It's a life form...
I mean...
It's my pet!
Its name is Rinon!
I've never seen such an animal!
Amazing!
But it's kind of cute!
Yeah, it's dancing!
Now that we're in a good mood,
let's play my special King's Game.
What's King's Game?
You'll see.
Who's the king?
It's me.
Something easy first. #3, flip #1's forehead.
As hard as you can.
#4, slap #1.
Idiot, Kaito!
Why always me?
#5, kiss #4.
This is rigged!
#3, take off your pants.
Okay!
Hey, why are you actually doing it?
Perv!
#4, cougar pose.
And #2...
Me?
Have...
sex with #1.
No way!
Wonderful, everyone.
This is going to be a great movie.
Kaito, are you okay?
Yeah, I guess.
What about you?
I'm fine now.
I see.
But I wonder what that drink was.
My head's...
Kaito?!
Sorry, Ichika.
Close your eyes for a bit.
Rinon!
How is it?
Huh? The pain's...
I'm glad.
Idiot.
Kai, you idiot.
I'm the idiot.
Ichika.
Ichika, I...
I...
No.
Don't say it.
Please.
Don't say it.
kumo no katachi tsukinukeru
My feelings are burning into film
omoi no shoudou egaku
like it's piercing through clouds
tadayou manatsu no kaori ni nando mo omoidashiteru
The lingering summer scent still reminds me of you
dareka kureta kiseki dake
Only the miracle given to me by someone
yuudachi no you ni potsuri to
is starting to saturate in your color
iro ga shimidashite ita
like being soaked by a sudden shower
Episode Three
Senpai Will Say It...
Kanna, Kirishima is taking a day off.
Oh, no! I have to visit him!
This is top priority!
That's a forbidden line.
