Who are you?
My name is Madoka Orimura.
I'll take your life!
I wonder how long this will last.
Laura!
You've got some nerve, messing with my bride!
Silent Zephyrus!
What a pain.
Did she get away?
Are you okay, Laura?
That's what I should be asking you.
It was you she was after. Do you know why?
No, I don't know.
What's the matter?
You've got beautiful eyes.
What?
They look like gemstones.
What are you talking about? You just got attacked for God's sake!
I don't usually get to see them, so...
Beautiful... Ichika said that I look beautiful...
At any rate, you showed up at the perfect time.
Well, that's because I was looking for a chance to be alone with you.
I can't believe you just made me say that!
What was that for?
The Secret Base
Escort the IS equipment?
Yeah. Supposedly some countries have asked us
to test their prototype equipment.
But...
Sorry, but I have to help my family.
There's this meeting that I must attend.
Actually I'm assigned to a different duty.
Clarissa, about the stuff we talked about...
Everyone seems busy. Well, I guess I'll do it alone.
You didn't have to come, Ichika. You got ambushed just the other day.
But that doesn't mean I should let you take on everything by yourself.
I'll be fine.
Oh boy...
What was that?
I'll go check it out, too!
Wait, Ichika!
Who are they?
No nationality or ID code!
Let's go, Charl!
Okay, Ichika!
They're so fast.
Just let us catch you, so you won't get hurt.
IS pilots?
That doesn't matter. Get rid of them!
Damn!
You're pretty good.
I won't let you get away!
You're making my Revive cry with your poor handling!
Shut up!
Ichika!
Give up already. You have no chance against us.
Charl!
Are you okay, Ichika?
I'm okay.
Could you be any slower?
You should never let your guard down, Ichika.
I'm sorry to make you guys worry.
What do we do with you?
Yeah, no kidding.
I'm sorry.
I don't see any problem with Orimura's body,
but I detected some abnormalities in Byakushiki's quantum shift.
Orimura?
Yes.
Draw sword: Yukihira!
He's unable to deploy the equipment.
What's the cause?
I can't say without further tests.
Orimura, hand over your Byakushiki.
But we don't know when Phantom Task might show up.
That's exactly why I want you to hand it over.
What would you do if you get to where you're unable to deploy Byakushiki itself?
But...
You're better off not relying on an incomplete power.
Or do you feel scared without Byakushiki?
I'm not scared, Big Sister Chifuyu.
That's good to know.
Now the problem is... "what if the girls find out about it"?
I know they're going to panic,
but from a security perspective it is essential
to inform the candidates at least.
This is giving me a headache...
Please don't let them know. I'll protect Ichika!
I must protect Ichika...
Ichika, which one do you like?
Striped is Best!
What is this?
Hey, Laura!
What are you doing, showing that all of a sudden?!
Close your eyes, Ichika.
I'm just trying to find out my bride's tastes.
"Your bride's tastes"?
Yeah, Clarissa told me...
When a girl is in love,
this thing called "the panty flash event" arises occasionally.
It's when a boy accidentally catches a glimpse of her panties.
Therefore you must always wear panties that
you wouldn't mind showing to Ichika Orimura!
And these striped panties are supposedly the absolute best
when it comes to boosting your likability!
The absolute best...
The design isn't bad.
Right. I have the same kind myself.
Chelsea, I want to order new underwear.
I want the design to have horizontal stripes...
No, no, no, it's not like that at all.
Is he flustered because it was the truth? My bride is so modest.
That's not it!
What kind of underwear do you like, Charlotte?
Laura, you're not supposed to talk about stuff like that in front of a boy.
I'm sorry, but I have to go.
No way...
What just happened to my underwear all of a sudden?
...detected some abnormalities in Byakushiki's quantum shift...
...therefore he's unable to deploy the equipment.
Don't tell me the same thing is happening with my underwear, too?!
This time for sure...
Not again. What should I do?
Charl, are you in there?
I-Ichika?! What's the matter?
Class has started already.
What? Oh, sorry.
I'm sorry, Ichika.
Is something wrong?
Well, sort of...
But it's okay now.
Okay, then let's go!
Wait, Ichika!
Give me a second. Can you slow down?
What are you talking about? You know it's my sister's class.
Yeah... I know, but...
Come on, dash! Dash!
Whoa, don't pull me like that!
S-sorry...
I'm okay!
No!
How long is this going to last?
Hey, Houki.
Can I sit here?
Sure, go ahead.
What's the matter?
N-nothing.
The chair feels cold.
Here, Ling!
Okay, Charlotte!
Leave it up to me.
Attack!
What?
I missed the timing.
Why do I have to do this on a day like this?
Hey, Charl. I'll help you.
Charl, there must be something wrong with you today.
I'm sorry, Ichika...
The issues with Byakushiki must have gotten you worried.
I'm sorry.
It's not like that at all.
Actually I'm glad to be of help to you, Ichika.
It's good to hear that, but I don't want you to push yourself too hard.
Okay.
You're so sweet, Ichika.
Did you say something?
No, nothing!
Hey!
C-Clarissa, it's me! There's an emergency!
Charlotte Dunois has no underwear on?!
I may have opened Pandora's box...
Do you remember the "panty flash event" we talked about?
Of course I do.
There are some cases where you can't see
the panties that are supposed to be there.
What did you say?
It's a special case, the so-called "she-has-nothing-on" moment,
which occurs due to the angle,
the amount of light and other various conditions.
"She-has-nothing-on" moment?! That means Charlotte was actually...
Most likely, you just couldn't see it.
I see...
So Charlotte was actually wearing her panties.
Good. That's really good.
I expect nothing less from the Black Bunny Squad XO!
She doesn't love Japanese anime and manga for nothing!
That's why I admire her and want to be like her!
Looks like I didn't have to lose my war buddy.
War buddy...?
I'm a little jealous that she makes you say that.
Did you say something?
No, nothing.
Leader, we, the Black Bunny Squad, are always with you.
Please don't ever forget that.
I appreciate that, Clarissa.
Thank you for helping me.
I'll go tell the teacher, so you can go ahead and go back to the classroom.
Okay. Don't push yourself too hard.
Thank God that he didn't find out.
What happened to Byakushiki has happened to my underwear...
I need to do something about this as soon as possible.
But that means I'll have to have Revive inspected, too...
If that happens I won't be able to protect Ichika.
That aside, if Ichika finds out that I don't have any underwear on...
I had no idea you were into things like that.
I was more surprised than the time I found out that you were actually a girl.
This is not what you think!
To tell you the truth I'm disappointed... I can't believe you're not wearing anything.
Listen, Ichika! I can explain!
I'm disappointed in you, Charl. Bye...
Wait, Ichika!
That could happen... I don't want that!
Anyway I need to keep it secret until Ichika's Byakushiki goes back to normal.
What a coincidence that I run into you guys at a place like this.
I was moving some stuff to the reference room for a teacher.
I-I'll see you later.
Hey, Charlotte.
About what you just said...
We need to know more about it in detail.
Why didn't you tell us that sooner?!
You shouldn't have hesitated!
Do you realize that you're being targeted?
Did you guys figure out about Byakushiki?
Then I have no choice but to protect you.
No, it's time for me and my Blue Tears to step in.
You're a long-distance sniper type. There's no way you can be his bodyguard.
Just leave it up to me and my Shenlong.
What did you say?
You've got a problem?
Hey, calm down!
Well... Hey, calm down!
Ichika, this way!
I'm sorry, Ichika.
You couldn't help what happened.
I'm really sorry.
Get down!
That's dangerous!
The output is reduced so don't worry.
Now you shall be taken under my wing.
Don't shoot lasers at the person you're supposed to protect!
Duck!
It's Ling this time?
Don't worry. I just tapped it.
You totally stabbed it!
Allow me to protect you!
I'll do it!
I'm the one who will protect Ichika!
This is the last duty you'd take away from me!
I'll make it clear to see who his true childhood friend is!
Umm, guys?
Okay, that's enough!
That's enough IS usage for private purposes inside the school!
You stay out of this!
This is our issue!
The outsider needs to step back!
I get it, I get it. Maybe I should join you guys, too.
I'll get Ichika if I defeat all of you, right?
THE ACADEMY'S STRONGEST
I like how obedient you are.
I want the three of you to rake the sand on the grounds.
What?
What kind of example would I be setting
if I didn't penalize you at all after raising such a commotion?
Okay, thanks!
I feel guilty.
Yeah...
Well, I guess I'll go, too.
What? To where?
To go get yelled by my sister Chifuyu.
This wouldn't have happened if it weren't for Byakushiki to begin with.
Wait, then I should go...
But you worked hard, Charl.
Let me take the spotlight for a change.
But...
Thank you for everything today. You made me happy.
Ichika is leaving because of me...
Ichika didn't do anything wrong...
Does this mean I should've told him the truth much earlier?
That's impossible!
I won't be able to protect Ichika if I tell him that,
and he's going to hate me!
But
what should I do?
Why didn't you tell me about it?
Because I thought you would get mad at me.
Are you hurt?
Aren't you mad at me?
Why would I be?
Because I broke your favorite mirror.
There's nothing more important than you, Charlotte.
Mom...
I'm sorry!
I'm proud of you because you said you were sorry.
Can you promise me that you're going to be honest from now on?
Yes, I won't tell a lie again, Mom!
That's right... He's not going to hate me over this.
If I'll be honest with him... As long as I'm honest with him!
Wait!
There's something that I need to tell you.
What is it all of a sudden?
Well, I...
H-hey, what do you think you're doing?
Please!
Charl?
Look... This is my...
...secret!
Charlotte.
What... What was I doing just now?
Hey, Laura, what's up?
Hmm...
Oh!
So you do wear underwear.
Of course I do!
Underwear?!
I do! Look, Ichika! Look!
You lech, Ichika.
Why?!
Have you figured out the cause of it?
I found out that one of the prototypes
we had been planning to import
had an option to quantum shift more effectively.
It must be the one that was destroyed during the attack.
It went out of control then
and that had some kind of impact on Byakushiki.
Luckily, the impact was only temporary and it's back to normal already.
What a troublemaker we've got on our hands.
I'm glad Orimura is okay.
But his carelessness was the cause of this to begin with.
He got what he deserved.
What?
Nothing.
By the way, have you found out who's behind the attack?
There's no connection with Phantom Task.
They were just spies sent by the corporation.
Only your underwear was forced into quantum shift, huh?
What a day this has been.
Then you should've put on something that
couldn't be recognized as underwear.
Look.
Bloomers...
Why didn't I think of that?
Long ago, a princess in France said:
"If they don't have panties, let them wear bloomers!"
No, she didn't!
It is a time of civil war.
We're in the great civil war over Ichika.
We, the Black Bunny Squad, may only have a small territory,
but our spirits are higher than Mt. Fuji!
Now it's time for us to move out!
Instructor Orimura?!
"Sisters"
Next time on Infinite Stratos 2, "Sisters"
