Please!

Please!
Sign our petition-
Why you!
Huh? Me?
W-Wait a minute!!
Sign the petition if you want to live!
Heck, just do it!!!
Quit blabbering and do it!
Sign it... Sign it!
Bring Back the School Fair!
The Tyranny of External Funds
= Heated Opposition Movement
It's so cute!
I want the uniform to be changed now and not next April.
Seioh's going to be joining the big schools now?

Judgment Day for the School Fair Revival Petition
142 Hours to Go
There you are.
Shimojima-sensei.
Thirty years ago, even this place was very lively.
I can't picture that at all.
You probably can't.
But it was really lively.
When was it abandoned?
Right around the time I was a senior.
At that time, the number of students living in the dorm kept on decreasing.
In the end, the dorm was abandoned after our class graduated.
I learned many things...
...and had many of fun memories here.
And it was very vexing for me...
Banner Sign: Can't Allow Administration's Tyranny!!
Fighting Students!
Can't Allow Administrative Tyranny
Strike
All the dorm students stayed here for a week.
"We can't allow the Administration's tyranny!"
Stuff like that.
But, we couldn't stop their actions in the end.
A b s o l u t e
T e r r i t o r y
Unyielding Spirit
We're against the abolishment of the dorm!
F I G H T
TILL
THE
END
AGAINST
ABOLISHMENT
OF DORM
STOP THIS
AT ALL COST!
WE WILL NOT
YIELD TO THE
ADMINISTRATION
And once again, this time...
I'm a failure of a leader.
Was it really useless?
You wanted to change the school but couldn't.
Does that really mean everything you did was useless?
Student Council Office
I've got it!
Yes, Manabi-chan?
Dolphins!
Dol...phins?
Let's get dolphins for our School Fair!
All students!!
What do we
have to do to
get more people to sign our petition!?
Okay, it's the end, the end.
What do you guys think about this?
First, we start by getting at least two signatures.
Those people that signed our petition get two more of their own.
To be part of this system, they'll need to pay a fee.
Ah! But "parent" members can collect money from "child" members,
so the more members you get, the amount of money you can collect can reach infinity-
I-Isn't that illegal?
Tch.
Do you have any ideas, Uehara-san?
Let's see...
Not really.
Let's just call it a day.
Our petition campaign wasn't working out well.
We were ready and took this upon ourselves,
but it wasn't working out smoothly,
and we couldn't come up with a breakthrough idea.
"I'm sure we'll come up with a great idea tomorrow!"

And the next event in front of the station is...
Hey, apparently, we get to choose from several varieties of the new school uniform!
So, we get to choose what we like?
Isn't the Student Council the only one that thinks that way?
Hey, I've been thinking...
Isn't this impossible to begin with?
Mu-chi...
To be honest, everyone's already interested in the new school uniforms.
Maybe we should just forget about the School Fair, too-
No!
Let's get this straight.
Giving up on the School Fair is the same as abandoning our school!
We can't give up.
We must not.
Yeah.
Mu-chi!
We'll be going on ahead.
Okay.
Mu-chi, going to the Student Council today, too?
Come to our place sometime already!
Ah, sure.
Well, I can't skip out too often.
All right!
Our helper, Mu-chi's back!
Mu-chi's late today.
Yeah.
Mei-chan's not coming either since she has something to do.
Yeah.
Looks like things are back to the way they were.
Back?
Back when it was just me and you, Mikan-chan.
Yeah.
We'll be heading home now.
Ah, good job today.
Please excuse us.
Let's go, Mikan-chan.
Mikan-chan?
Sorry, I forgot something.
Wait for me at the front door.
See you tomorrow
Student Council Office
Is the School Fair done for?
Basically, just show the movie we prepared and that should be fine.
Yes, please.
By the way,
is your Student Council President doing well?
Yes, she's going on as she normally does.
She's working hard.
please sign the petition
Let's create Seioh's... our own School Fair!

To Buddies
From friends
Although it's lunch recess right now,
as a special event, we will now broadcast the new school anthem to be used starting next April.
This school anthem was produced by the world-famous musician Atsushi Mikasa-san.
The song brings out Seioh High School's new stature with its elegant melody.
Its theme is the future.
Now, please have a listen.
Seioh High School's new anthem - Fly to Future.
What just happened?
People in Japan, Konnichiwa.
Me not Japanese.
Yoroshiku oneGAIshimasu, yeah!
What's this?
This pirated clip is being broadcasted from the other side of the planet.
It's Momo-chan.
This is Momo-chan!

Do you have any idea what you're doing, Odori-kun?!
Open this place already!
My cover's blown already?!
I'm gonna be in trouble...
And so...
If there are no problems, I'd like to move on to the next item.
You there, if you're asleep, can you just get out?
I-I'm not asleep!
I just shut my eyes for a bit.
Amamiya-san and Inamori-san, stop passing letters under the table!
She found out?
Odori-san.
Hey, don't tape us without permission.
Don't come near me!
W-Wait!
I-I said don't come near me!
Wh-What is this?
I-I don't know!
Secret coupon-desu!
What it can be used for is a secret-desu!
Please work seriously.
We don't have time.
Okay...

We're sorry; we had some technical difficulties,
so we'll broadcast the new anthem once again.
kagayaku toki nakama to
輝くとき 仲間と
Hurry, hurry!
Please listen!
I don't...
tomo ni aru
ともにある
I don't want...
...want everyone to get separated and have things end like this!!!
Mikan-chan...
I like this song better.
Actually, our old song sounds pretty good now that I heard it again.
Is it okay for us to be here?
Is it really okay for us to be here now?
You're right.
God, what do you think you were dong?
Stop moving already-
What are they doing?
I don't know.
Mei.
MANABI------!!!
Hey, we-
Let's do this.
Mikan-chan?
Let's do the School Fair.
But...
I want to...
I want to do something special with all of you.
So, let's do the School Fair!
Right now, at this time...
Let's do something that only we can do!
Now that Mikan's said it,
we don't have any choice, eh?
Forward...

I don't think it was useless.
We wanted to change the school...
...but couldn't.
But it wasn't useless.
Sensei, I can recall all the names and faces of the buddies that fought with me inside the dorm.
Is that so?
Besides...
See?
We still can't get any signatures for our petition, eh?
Aww, losing spirit already?
Don't be down, don't be down.
I'm not!
Umm...
Can we... sign the petition?
Of course!
