Let's see some school spirit!
- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!
One, two!
You have a visitor. You have a visitor.
Oh, so he's here.
Hey, there. Welcome.
Oh! It's been a long time, Principal!
Thank you for coming. Please, come this way.
I'm glad to see you're in good health.
I see you're a true resident in the human world now.
Thank you. In the seventeen years since my graduation from this school...
I finally got my business running smoothly.
Yes, yes. I occasionally go there myself.
What? You, Principal? And you dance?
Yes, of course. Above all, it makes a man feel young again.
Doesn't it though?
I like it there. You truly have a great place.
Th- Thanks. The truth is...
Are you having difficulty with something?
Actually, the distortion in time and space is becoming a regular occurrence again.
Oh, yes. That area always was an "amazing point" since the old days.
Yes. However, there's more. You see...
It's like there's some sort of different power there.
Oh?
You've changed.
Huh?
You never really read magic books much until now.
When my computer broke down before...
I found it sort of interesting to read Papa's magic books.
So, find any interesting spells?
Yeah. I found a real dandy.
Huh? What kind?
Well, it's a transformation spell, and...
Transformation?
Ayu-chan?
I'll pretend I didn't hear that.
It's nothing like that.
Listen, you can transform to how you'll look six years from now.
Six years from now?
Wow! Twenty years old? That's an adult!
See? Isn't it kind of cool? Want to try it out?
Uh, but...
It's okay, it's okay! You know my magic got better recently.
Y -Yeah.
Then come over to my house today!
Huh? A nightclub?
Yes. I received an invitation for a grand reopening.
Wow, Mama. You go dancing at clubs?
Oh, we're talking a long time ago. It's the club where I met Papa.
That's wonderful!
But why are they giving me an invitation now?
When is it for?
Let's see. Oh, it's today.
Let's go, Mama!
You can't, Nina. In the human world...
middle school students aren't allowed in clubs.
So we'll use this to sneak in.
Do you mean by transforming into ourselves six years from now?
Yeah! It's perfect for the job.
And besides, I finally got it memorized. I want to use it!
Yeah, but a club, of all things?
Mama will be with us, and she'll act as chaperone, so it'll be fine.
Right, Mama? You're going, right?
Well, it has been a long time, so maybe I will go.
That settles it! You come, too, Ayu-chan. Come on!
Let's see now...
Make sure we can change back again, like an undo magic spell.
It's okay! I set it so we change back in three hours.
Three hours.
Until 8 o'clock, huh?
Okay. That might be perfect.
I wanna go, too! Hey, make it so I can come along!
No way. You have to stay home this time.
What?
Let's see... How about this?
Good question. It's very advanced, but let's give it a try.
Yeah, please do!
Practice!
They're done!
Here, Ayu-chan. You take one, too.
It's safe, right?
Yeah! Now let's eat them!
Nina-chan? Do you think this dress looks okay on me?
Oh?
- What's wrong? - Amazing!
Wow! So, this...
This is you and me when we're twenty!
That's wonderful!
Oh! Mama...
You both look incredibly cute!
You look great, too!
What? Really? You think? Oh, that's right. Rio-chan?
I made you a snack for while you're housesitting, so come here!
But, really, you look cool, Ayu-chan!
You look real groovy yourself, Nina!
What do you think? My magic isn't bad, huh?
Yeah!
"You are cordially invited to spend one night in a world of the future.
"If you honor us with your presence, a wonderful discovery may be in store.
Club MK."
I don't get it. A wonderful discovery?
How deplorable.
Look at all the people frittering their lives away.
Class, the test ends in five minutes.
Oops! Uh, this one's that, and...
It's been ages! It sure has changed a lot.
It's like a city for grownups here.
Oh! There it is.
Wow. Here?
Whoa.
Incredible!
I was in this seat when I first spoke to Papa.
It was my first time in a club, and I was so surprised...
when he suddenly asked me if I'd like to dance.
Could you dance, Mama?
No, not at all!
It was my first time, but for some reason, I danced quite well.
Almost like magic.
Now that I think about it, I bet he really did cast a spell on me.
Really?
Way to go, Papa!
I was in love with him from that day forward.
I wonder if he cast a spell on my heart as well?
- That's a wonderful story. - Yeah.
You two go ahead and dance, since we're here and all.
Aren't you going to dance, Mama?
Oh, please! I gave up dancing a long time ago.
Yeah!
Mama's a pretty active person, huh?
Y -You think?
What is it?
Uh, nothing.
I feel like I've seen her before somewhere.
This is bad! This is really bad!
Girl, you're so totally pretty, you're freaking me out!
Wanna dance with me? Wanna try? I sure know I'd like to dance with you.
- Back off. - Hmm? What'd you say?
Something went inside my ear!
Something tickled me!
She reminds me of Orihara-san, but it couldn't be her, right?
Nina, what have you been up to?
I don't know what it is myself... but I'm sure I'm just imagining it.
Hey, let's dance, Ayu-chan!
Can you dance, Nina?
Not a step! But it'll be fine!
All you got to do is sway in time to the music.
I'm jealous of her optimistic mentality.
This is so romantic!
Isn't this fun, Ayu-chan?
Yeah...
What's wrong, Ayu-chan?
I think my dancing is a little weird.
Who cares? Don't let it bother you.
The steps are so difficult.
Oh, no! Nina's way over there!
Excuse me...
Would you be so kind as to dance with me?
I -I can't! I can't dance!
It's okay. Don't worry about a thing.
Don't be so tense. Here, move in time with me.
I can dance... I can really dance!
What? Kaji-kun?
Isn't this kind of like what happened with Nina's homestay parents?
You're kidding...
I...
Well, that's typical.
What?
This is the second time. I guess I'm really not the one for you.
Second time?
Haven't you figured it out yet?
Hi, Ayu.
Huh? Yuta-kun?
B - But why? How? You look different!
This is me when I'm twenty.
Just like you and Nina.
Oh, but how did you know Nina and I would be here?
A look at Nina's grandpa's computer told me you'd be here.
Huh? Her grandpa's computer? What do you mean?
Nina's grandpa's computer is set up so he can observe her.
What?
And I occasionally access his feed from my computer...
although I haven't told him that.
You haven't been watching her in places you shouldn't, right?
What? Places I shouldn't?
Y -You know.
Oh! Don't worry! It's set up to maintain personal privacy.
I hope so.
So, you wanted to see Nina as a twenty-year-old...
so you went to the trouble to come transformed as well?
Well, yes. But this area is susceptible to spatial distortions...
so it's easy to get here from the Magic Kingdom.
It's convenient to come for a quick visit.
You don't have to make up such a convoluted excuse.
It's no excuse! See?
See the guy in blue? And the girl in yellow?
They're all here from the other world.
Wow. I guess you can pick out people from the other world from a crowd.
Do you think Nina can tell the difference, too?
Who knows? You'd have to ask her.
Nina's lost in space again.
Nina!
So, you're here, too, Yuta!
Hi, Nina.
What? You can tell it's him?
Yeah, sort of. Anyway, look!
There's this weird huge distortion in time and space.
What? You can see it, Nina?
It's only faint, but, yeah.
Are distortions in time and space normally visible?
Yeah. Even people from the human world can see them if they look really hard.
It's hopeless. I can't see a thing.
What's this?
Nina, you...
I've never seen one this big. And I feel incredible power from it.
Where?
It's close!
Nina, is it a holy stone?
Yeah. I think it's close by, although I still can't see it.
The distortion is moving.
What? Do distortions move?
It's more unusual for them to stay still.
The reading from the stone is moving along with it!
I thought so!
It's showtime!
Look at this crowd!
Hey, please let us through!
Maya-chan!
Nina!
I won't lose to you today!
It's over there!
- Ooh! - Amazing!
We finally got through.
Huh? You're back to normal.
I did it to fit in with you two.
Oh, time is already up.
- That way! - Right!
Damn you, Nina!
Nina, keep it together!
Boy, she's scary to watch.
Ah, today was a truly complete and fulfilling day!
What the... That's Sakura-san the witch!
I got you on film!
True, I've already made tons of prints of Sakura-san as a witch...
but her floating in the evening sky is also something to see.
It's magnifique!
No, no! This is no time to be fascinated by her!
This is all for the sake of notifying the world of the existence of witches!
And the initial discoverer is myself, Jun Kawanakajima! I am the man!
Huh? Hello? Is nobody interested?
Hey, excuse me there.
Look! There's a witch over there, flying in the sky!
It's probably a promo stunt for a movie or something. Don't waste my time.
What the...
Where is the stone?
The power is fading.
Huh? Will it disappear again?
It's close!
Really?
There it is!
You won't have it!
Wait!
They've both disappeared!
They entered the alternate dimension.
Where's the stone?
There it is!
I have my second stone!
Where did it go?
Maybe we can't just go around chasing after it.
Where is it? Where, where?
The blue holy stone.
It can only exist within the hands of a witch with a compassionate heart.
A compassionate heart?
The stone itself decided that Nina was more suitable than Maya to have it.
That makes sense.
Nina must really have grown a lot.
Damn you, Yuta!
You illegally accessed my computer, didn't you? I will not forgive you!
Now, now, Professor Saqurail.
Don't be so angry.
Principal!
Why did you send an invitation to Orphelia's daughter as well?
Aren't you supposed to be on Nina's side?
True, at your request...
I am the one who blocked Nina's access to her magic computer.
As you thought, she did grow.
Then why didn't you help again?
Maya-chan is also one of my precious students.
I cannot show favoritism to Nina-chan alone.
Yes, but...
I sent them both invitations. They faced the same conditions.
Only the one among them best suited would acquire the stone.
And that happened to be Nina-chan.
Well, that's true. So, Nina is best suited to be princess!
Yes, but we still don't know that for sure.
There are seven candidates for princess. Nina-chan may have two stones...
but if one of the others should acquire the last two...
More importantly, Professor. Would you like to go dancing sometime?
Be quiet!
Nina! Don't let your guard down!

He's here, he's here!
- Who's here? - Grandpa!
- By Grandpa, do you mean him? - Yes, him!
I wonder what he's doing here.
Bad things have been happening since morning! Could it be his doing?
Does he hate me or something?
I'm sorry! Actually, there's a profound reason for all this...
but I can't tell you what it is.
Episode 19 of Ultramaniac is "Stand By Me."
Please reach his heart!
Practice!
