School Festival of Hell
The school festival...
It's snuck up on me since I became the school's chairman.
Tomorrow, I must make sure everything runs smoothly.
My heart is pounding; I feel so excited!
TL note: "moe moe" is onomatopoeia for excited.
Ah, moe indeed.
That's not the feeling she was implying, Onigawara.
More of a "burning excitement" feeling.
But that moe feeling she gives off...
It fuels my admiration for her...
Seeing Ojou-sama so motivated is amazing.
Motivated?
This could be my chance...
Ojou-sama.
Too close! Too close, Kagami-kun!
He's not just too close; he's trying to hold her hand.
What are you guys doing?
Begone!
I can't believe you people burst in and started snapping photos!
I asked them to do that.
I want an album to remember the festival.
Right?
Just a little more to the left.
That's it.
Okay! Now, Ruri-chan, please give us your thoughts on tomorrow's school festival.
Start!
This is your school chairman, Aiba Ruri.
This shall be my first school festival.
No matter what, I hope we can put on a safe and successful event.
That's right! No matter what...
No matter what!
How many times have I told you not to speak in public?
It was an emergency.
I can sense a Darkstone nearby.
In school?
Yes~
This sucks.
I want to go, already...
Why are they making the students with low grades do this?
Speak for yourself.
Aren't yours just as bad?
Not mine!
Idiot.
Hey, isn't that Tandoji?
It sure is.
And the tension falls.
Even he has to help out with the school festival, huh?
It just makes me want to quit school.
I know, right?
Hello, this is Kagami.
How are things your side?
I'm sorry about the incident earlier.
I'm putting Onigawara away, so he won't be bothering you again.
We have enough help here, so you don't need to worry.
I understand.
Now, then, what kind of target is it?
He's quite an ordinary one. I bet he's really weak.
You belong...
...here!
Tomorrow's presentation depends on you guys.
So work hard!
Sorry.
It's fine. I'll fix it later.
Being tall must be useful.
It's not all it's cracked up to be.
I hit my head on the door frame this morning.
Really?
I guess things like that must happen.
It must be hard for you.
Does it still hurt?
No.
Are you okay?
Your preparations seem to be getting along well.
Ruri-chan! Thanks for getting me the projector.
Now my presentation on gems is going to be perfect.

I'm going out for a bit.
Okay.
Hey, are you okay?
What happened?
What's wrong?
When I hit the ball, it turned into stone.
Stone?
I have no idea.
This is unmistakeably the work of a Darkstone.
I told you so.
Just as I suspected.
Hey, Tandoji.
Come with me for a bit.
I get it.
If the Darkstone were to threaten the school,
Ojou-sama would surely cancel the festival.
If what Onigawara says is true,
then I can probably take care of the Darkstone, myself.
No matter how weak it is, a Darkstone is a Darkstone.
I've been thinking.
Listen.
Make sure Ojou-sama doesn't find out about the Darkstone.
So, are you going to return to your club activities?
I'm just thinking.
The power of the Darkstone I sensed was weak, but can't it evolve into something stronger?
Yes~
In that case, if I use my Sacred Seven powers, I'm sure I'll be able to destroy it.
Won't Ruri see that?
If you go to destroy the Darkstone and shout "Transform!",
all hell will break lose at the school festival.
You're right.
Tomorrow's school festival will definitely be a success.
Why don't you pretend you're acting?
You mean I should lie to her?
Make it seem like you're a demon.
All right?
Look her straight in the eyes and give her a good play!
The eternal flame in your eyes has lit the spirit in my heart.
I'm sorry, Ruri-chan.
Having to ask the chairman to help me out with these things...
Don't worry about it.
I think I enjoy doing small things like this.
The Chairman's office?
Hello, Kagami?
Is setup all finished?
No, um, this is Alma.
Um, Alma-san?
Alma-san?
I'm sorry.
What was that?
It was just the sounds of balloons popping.
Not again.
Um, what is it?
I have something to tell you.
Could we meet on the roof?
W-What?
My chest is just really excited...
Chest?
Are they okay?
Yes, I'm fine.
I'll be right there.
Okay, then.
A Darkstone has been detected on school grounds.
Go to red alert.
Understood.
Activate the motion and heat sensors.
Understood.
Hidden sensors activated and transmitting data.
Synchronise the motion data with the thermal readings.
Understood.
Ah, I see now.
The Darkstone doesn't give off any heat.
Also, deploy the Engagement Suit to the school grounds immediately.
But we can't launch weapons with students nearby!
That's not a problem.
I have a plan for situations like these: Operation Mirror Force.
Operation Mirror Force?
Remember, Ojou-sama cannot know of this mission.
You'd like to talk to me?
Huh? Yeah...
Alma-san!
Hey!
Yes?
About my...
Sacred Seven powers...
I want to get better at using them.
With this power I want to, for you-
I mean... for everyone's sake, I want to be able to protect people.
You're right!
That's an amazing idea.
Can I... transform, right now?
Now?
I mean, in order to practise...
...and so I can get better at helping people out...
Also...
The eternal flame in your eyes...
I knew this wouldn't be good.
Just forget that.
Please wait a moment!
A spare should be good enough for training.
That sounds good.
So how expensive are the spares, anyway?
If I recall... 140 million.
100 million?
Add another 40 million there.
I will consume your memories.
And this gem...
I will entrust it to you!
For now...
Excuse me!
Um...
Could you be...
...Tandoji-kun?
Um...
Could you be...
...Tandoji-kun?
No, this isn't what you... Um...
Nice cosplay, Tandoji-kun!
Huh?
I was wondering how I could advertise the club a little more...
But that get-up would do the trick!
Right, Ruri-chan?
Yes, I don't see why not.
Advertising, huh?
Here, take this.
Operation Mirror Force...
Commence!
Now, to do my best!
You look like you're doing well.
After seeing Alma-san so motivated, I want to help out!
There's no way that kid actually went all the way with my advice, did he?
Damn it!
Why are you so fast?
Tandoji?
He already transformed?
We heard that he asked Ojou-sama to transform him so that he could train.
That guy...
My cheeks hurt.
Hey, at least apologise!
Oh, I'm sorry about that.
Excuse me.
Wait!
Kagami-kun!
Huh?
Tandoji?
It disappeared?
I guess I'll go this way.
It seems there are two targets now.
The Darkstone has split in two.
How annoying.
Kagami-kun, what are you doing?
This is a nice piece of work.
I'm sorry, you two, but there's some big trouble I must attend to.
Please return to your normal club activities.
Excuse me.
If he says that, it only makes me want to follow even more.
I know, right?
We better hurry up if this is going to be finished.
Is that Tandoji?
He's in such an odd cosplay get-up.
Where is it?
Strike!
Me, too. Strike!
Now, then, I wonder if this is enough.
What's going on?
There seems to be trouble by the monument.
You have to get down somehow!
That's impossible!
Hurry up and save me!
Are you guys his friends?
Why did you get down without bothering to help him?
I have to do something, but I can't use my Sacred Seven powers with everyone watching.
Okay, that's one.
Where's the other?
What the heck is Tandoji doing?
Hang in there!
Rescuers should be arriving soon!
Try not to move! Just wait a little more!
I've already reached my limit! It's impossible!
Students!
Don't worry! There's nothing that a hero can't do!
Hey, are you okay?
Thank you, Tandoji.
Thank you so much.
Can you stand?
I can't believe that even with all we've done to him,
he's still a nice guy.
Sure is.
I agree.
That won't be enough to stop me.
That's...
...Tandoji!
Bring the Darkstone to me!
All right!
A bomb?
It's finally gone.
No matter what threatens our academy,
we heroes will come to save the day!
Cut!
Okay, that's enough!
Huh?
What's this, a movie shooting?
Thanks for your hard work.
I'll leave the rest to you.
I understand.
Operation Mirror Force: Mission complete.
Not telling me anything...
What in the world happened?
Explain yourself, Kagami.
I was thinking about how to destroy the Darkstone.
It's a good thing nothing terrible happened.
Didn't you think the safety of the students was threatened?
He did it for your sake!
Don't speak of that!
For my sake?
That's right.
I didn't want the school festival to be ruined for you.
Tandoji, were you thinking the same thing?
I understand.
I don't want you two to ever fight a Darkstone without telling me again.
Please.
I understand.
Sorry.
However, I have to thank you for saving the school festival.
I'm really thankful.
Um, if you'd like, here.
Go on!
After all of that, I could eat for days!
Is it okay if I eat all of them?
Please leave some for me.
The weather for the school festival was perfect,
Ａｃａｄｅｍｙ Ａｉｂａ
Ｆｅｓｔｉｖａｌ
and plenty of visitors came.
The Crystal Club's exhibit was a huge success.
And we came second place, after the Cultural Club!
However, my 24 hour documentary on rocks...
...was, surprisingly, not as warmly appreciated.
It's a shame; those rocks were so cute!
And after that was the end of the school festival!
Sign: Special Recognition for Outstanding Cosplay - Tandoji Alma-san and Makoto Kagami-san.
Oh, yeah.
The show that Tandoji-kun and Kagami-kun did was well received,
and then, we got asked to do a cosplay show!
It's over already? I don't want it to be.
That drink has been pretty popular lately.
How do you know?
Oh, my family owns a drug store.
Is this really that popular?
That drink is...
What's the matter, Ojou-sama?
It's nothing at all!
But your face...
...is all red.
Even Alma-san...
TL note: "moeru ore" (misspelt) here means "fire me up". Take a flying guess what the drink is.
It's too embarrassing!
