The hell?
Shut up.
Just five more minutes...
Shit, they're getting ready for the fair!
I gotta move!
Oww!
With a rock-solid will, a stone can roll anywhere
Its future is crumbling about like sand, and you can't read a word
You'll never see it if you keep rolling ahead
Give me what can't be described in words
A piece of cold stone
could still hide heat within
The future is unclear,
but you still want to win
You can go on with nothing in your heart
But try to find the dream that's locked away
We join hands in the heat
of the moment and it changes you
You leap up to see me,
but fall short
You reach for the sky
once more and
launch all your feelings
And we cry together until you smile
Stone Cold
FIRST Aiba Academy Cultural Fair Your Will Can Rock The World!
School Fair of Hell
The school fair.
I've been looking forward to my first one since becoming chairman.
It's in just one more day. I must have patience.
My heart's pounding... I feel weird inside.
Aw hell, do we have to have the talk?
Stop that, Hellbrick. She's just excited.
But I feel like I'm being inspired by a great commander.
Just seeing my lady so excited...
So excited...
This could be my chance!
My lady...
That's way too close, Kagami!
He's getting so carried away, he's actually trying to hold her hand.
What are you doing here? How dare you!
Barging in and taking photos—
Kagami, I asked them to do it.
I wanted to have a keepsake of the school fair.
Right?
Just a little more to the left...
Perfect!
Now, Miss Ruri, as the new chairman of the school board,
give us your thoughts on the upcoming school fair!
Go!
I'm Ruri Aiba, chairman of the school board.
This is my first fair since coming to the school.
I wish for tomorrow to be a great time for everyone,
and that we all have a safe and successful event.
Danger! Danger, Hell Robinson! Danger!
How many times have I told you not to talk when people are around?
We've got a hell of a problem.
There's a Darkstone hella close.
To the school?
Hell yeah.
Damn it, this sucks.
I wanna go home.
Dude, there's a grade riding on this.
Maybe for you.
What, and you're special?
Shut up, you moron.
Look, ain't that Tandoji?
Hey, it is!
Whatever, guys.
Even that guy's got the school spirit to help with the fair.
Makes me wanna quit school.
I'm with you there!
This is Kagami.
What is your status?
I apologize for earlier.
Hellbrick drove the Darkstone away. It won't be coming back.
Please rest at ease, my lady.
Understood.
Now, tell me about the target.
He's a hella tiny little punk. I could beat him the hell up.
Hmm. You go... right here.
Spotlight's on you guys tomorrow! Break a leg!
Sorry.
No problem! I'll just fix them later.
Being a big guy sure is handy!
It's not all that great, being tall.
I hit my head on the door frame this morning.
Really?
I guess that's true.
Man, I bet that stings.
Does it still hurt?
No.
You're all better?
Your preparations are proceeding smoothly?
Ruri! Thanks so much for the projector!
My presentation on gems is going to be perfect!
Documentary,
24 Hours of Rocks
Experience the majesty of rocks
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
We're going to have a great fair tomorrow!
Of course!
I'm going out.
Have fun!
Dude, are you okay?
It hurts!
What's wrong?
I was kicking this ball, and it turned into a rock!
A rock?
This doesn't make sense.
This is definitely the Darkstone.
Hella called it.
That's what I thought.
Tandoji!
Come with me.
Okay.
If the Darkstone is threatening the fair,
I'm sure my lady will cancel it.
On the other hand, if Hellbrick is right,
I can handle the Darkstone on my own.
It may be weak as hell, but it's still a Darkstone.
I have an idea.
The hell?
Don't you dare tell my lady about the Darkstone.
You goin' the hell back to your club?
I'm thinking.
The hell?
The pulse I felt was pretty weak, but can't the Darkstone power itself up?
Hell yeah.
If I use my Seven powers, we can be sure it'll die.
Hell, you're gonna ask Ruri?
Go and be like "power me the hell up!"
And suddenly, the big fair doesn't stand a chance in hell!
You're right.
We're going to have a great fair tomorrow!
Hell, you could try some acting.
You mean lie to her.
Hell naw, it's just acting.
Look her straight in the eyes and give her a hella badass line!
"The burning flame eternally dancing in your eyes has lit a hellfire in my heart!"
I'm really sorry, Ruri!
Making the chairman help out with something like this!
Please don't worry. I'm having a lot of fun.
It's from the chairman's room.
Hello, Kagami?
Is the setup done yet?
No, um, I mean, this is Arma.
Ah... Arma?
Sorry, but...
What was that?
That was just some balloons popping.
Again?
What do you mean?
Um, no, I have something to ask you.
Could you meet me on the roof?
What's wrong?
My heart's really pounding...
Your heart? Are you feeling okay?
I'm just fine! I'll be there!
Okay...
There's a Darkstone on school grounds.
Go to red alert.
Roger!
Activate the motion and heat sensors.
Roger.
Hidden sensors are active and transmitting.
Cross-reference the motion data with the thermal readings.
Roger.
Oh, of course. The Darkstone doesn't give off any heat.
Then deploy the Engagement Suit to the grounds as quickly as possible.
But we can't deploy weapons in front of students!
That's all right. We have a plan for just this contingency.
Operation Mirror Force.
Operation Mirror Force?!
And remember, this is a complete secret from the mistress!
Um...
You have something to ask me?
Wha? Uh...
Um...
Arma...
I...
Yes?
I want to get better at using my Seven powers.
I want to protect you—I mean, people—With my power.
Of course! That's wonderful!
So... can I transform right now?
Now?
I want to get some practice...
And I might be able to help some people out...
And... the burning flame in your eyes...
God dammit, this is stupid!
Forget it.
Wait!
A spare should be good enough for training.
Yeah, I guess...
By the way, how much are the spares?
This one was... 140 million.
A hundred million!
Hell, you missed forty million there, kiddo.
I will take your memories.
And give you this stone as my will.
Anyway...
Excuse me!
Uh...
Would you be...
Tandoji?
Um, would you be...
Tandoji?
Oh god, chief, this isn't what it—
I absolutely love your costume, Tandoji!
What?
And I was just wondering how to advertise the club!
But with a costume like that, we'll catch everybody!
Right, Ruri?
Yes, it just might work.
You want me to advertise?
Here you go!
Operation Mirror Force will now commence!
Let's get to work!
You're looking hella excited.
Of course I am! Seeing Arma makes me want to do something amazing!
Oh hell yes, that kid might have actually taken my advice.
Goddamn! It's way too fast!
Tandoji! When did he transform?
We have word that he asked Ruri to transform him for training purposes.
That imbecile!
God, my face hurts...
Hey, you could at least say sorry!
My apologies, miss.
Please excuse me.
Wait for us!
Kagami!
Huh?
Tandoji?
Is there another one now?
Never would have pegged him for this.
I'll take this way!
It looks like there are two targets now.
We believe the Darkstone split into two.
This is bad...
Kagami, whatcha doing?
Wow, this is a nice piece of work.
I'm deeply sorry, you two,
but I'm very busy with urgent Food Club business.
Please return to your normal club activities.
Excuse me.
Well, when you say it like that, it just makes me want to follow.
I know, right?
We gotta hurry if we want this done on time.
Look, it's Tandoji again.
He's wearing some stupid costume.
Where did it go?
Strike!
Hey, let me try.
Help!
I think this is right.
What's going on?
It looks like an accident at the monument.
You have to get down somehow!
I can't!
Help me!
Aren't you his friends?
Why didn't you help him when you got down?
I have to do something, but I can't use my Seven powers with people watching!
That's one down.
Where's the other?
What the hell's keeping Tandoji?
Just hold on! Help is on the way!
I can't hold on any longer!
Ladies and gentlemen of the school!
Fear not! There is nothing a true hero cannot accomplish!
Are you okay?
Thank you, Tandoji...
Thank you so much...
Can you stand?
Even with all we did to him... he's such a good guy.
Yeah...
I agree.
You think that'll stop me?
Oh, shit!
Tandoji! Bring the Darkstone to me!
Okay!
It's going to explode!
It's finally gone.
Whatever may threaten our fair academy,
we heroes will come to save the day!
And cut!
That's a wrap! Everybody out!
Oh, they're shooting a movie?
Good work.
You've got it from here.
Roger.
Operation Mirror Force: mission complete.
And without telling me a thing!
What is going on? Explain yourself, Kagami!
I was only considering how best to destroy the Darkstone.
We were only lucky nothing terrible happened.
Did you not consider that students may get hurt?
He did it for you.
Be silent!
For me?
Yeah, for you. He didn't want to ruin the school fair you've been looking forward to so much.
Tandoji, you were in this too.
I see.
I want you both to promise me never to fight a Darkstone without telling me again.
Yes, my lady.
Sorry.
But thank you for saving the fair.
I really appreciate it.
I made these for you two.
Please eat.
Oh man, I was just getting hungry!
Can I just eat all of them?
Why, you! Leave some for me!
The weather on the day of the fair was perfect,
Aiba Academy Cultural Fair
and we got a huge number of visitors.
The Geology Club's exhibit was a huge success,
and our points were second only to the Cultural Club's.
But my presentation on "24 Hours of Rocks" went even worse than expected.
What a shame. The rocks are all so cute!
Angry Rocks
Welcome to the Geology Club
Singing Rocks
Laughing Rocks
And that was the end of the school fair!

Aww, it's already over? I don't want it to end!
Hey, that drink's really popular.
How do you know?
My family owns a drugstore.
But I didn't think it was that tasty...
That drink is...
Is something the matter, my lady?
Absolutely nothing!
But your face...
It's bright red.
Not you too, Arma!
