Seioh's Formation!
1st Social Gathering of Inter-School Student Councils Officers
Aikoh High School Campus Guide
Another ensemble of mediocre programs, I see.
Program proposals which do not adhere with Aikoh's rules and conventions...
...are all rejected when they reach the School Fair Committee Chair's hands.
I understand, but...
...this is so boring...
What's this?
It seems it got mixed into these documents.
That seems to be the papers the Seioh Student Council officer delivered yesterday.
I'm sorry; it must've got mixed up when I was organizing the documents.
A dodgeball tournament?
I understand their aims, but...
...what shall we do about it?
Notify them of our absence?
No, let's attend.
This seems interesting.
...and that's our piece.
I'm so moved!
Amazing!
Then, can we leave these here?
Okay! Okay! Of course, you can.
All right!
It was nice to be able to produce the CD,
but we didn't know how to get others to listen to it.
At this point, how about you make a jacket for it as well?
Would you like us to put it on the Seioh website?
Good idea, good idea!
Load it up, load 'em all up!
Excuse me...
We're from the sweets society club...
We wanted to ask a favor.
May we come in?
Yes, please.
Two weeks have passed ever since the renewal of the Student Council Office.
Listen carefully because I'm only going over it once!
You should catch the ball by putting your hands out and making your body round!
Aye!
When dodging, you should run in the direction of the opponent's dominant hand.
Aye!
Make them have to throw to the other side of their dominant hand.
That way, their reaction is slower,
and the throwing power will decrease, as well.
That's all!
Mei-chan, you're so knowledgeable.
B-Before you ask others,
you should try to do your own research on the net.
You guys are lucky that I just happened to, coincidentally, randomly walk past this room-
'sup...
I just happened to walk by here!
That's all there is to it!
Yo!
Good job today.
Helping out the softball team?
Yeah...
You don't seem too cheerful.
What happened?
Umm... well...
Ehh?!
Telling us now doesn't even give us enough time to find a replacement!
We'll default our match at this rate.
There's nothing we can do about it.
Kanzaki-chan from the softball club has work that she can't miss tomorrow.
In any case, we need to find another helper by today or else...
Let me make this clear:
I'm not the type of nice person that just likes to go around and help others-
What are you doing?
Make your body round when you're catching the ball!
When dodging, you should run in the direction of the opponent's dominant hand.
You don't have enough determination!
Before the ball hits you, you should-
And thus began our inter-school dodgeball tournament.
We at Seioh planned the event...
...and invited neighboring schools to participate...
...in this inter-school dodgeball tournament.
Fortunately, five high schools gave us the nod,
and all gathered together at this place today.
Umm, umm...
To the opponent's dominant hand's side-
What are you doing?
When dodging, you should run in the direction of the opponent's dominant hand.
Make your body round when you're catching the ball!
You don't have enough courage!
Before the ball hits you, you should-
Ah...
Here you go.
Allow me to introduce myself.
I am Aikoh High School's Student Council President,
Kakuzawa Takako.
Sorry about last time.
Last time?
You came all the way to our school, but...
Ah.
You created a very cute Student Council office.
Thank you very much!
I think the flyer for today was nice, too.
All teams involve student council participation...
...by requiring two members of the student council to be on the team.
After the end of the tournament,
we have planned for a social gathering.
No one has come up with an idea like this before.
By having all schools hold some connection with each other,
we might be able to find solutions...
...for the individual issues we have at our own schools.
The purpose of this tournament was to create such an opportunity for us, right?
I just thought that it'd be nice if we were all close to each other, I guess?
Manabi!
We ran out of ingredients for making yakisoba.
Note: Yakisoba is Japanese-style fried noodles.
I'll be right over!
Talk to you later then.
Good luck, Amamiya-san.
Just call me Manabi!
Manabi-san.
Later then, Taka-chan!
Taka-chan?
Is it really okay if I send you mail?
Sure!
Ah, tell me your address, too.
Cheers!
Ahem!
Thank you all for making time in your busy days and gathering here!
This is our memorable 1st social gathering of inter-school Student Councils officers.
Anyway, let us forget about all the difficult issues we have!
I think that if we don't get close first,
we won't really have good ideas to give each other.
So for today, let's just all eat delicious food and enjoy the day.
What do you say?!
H-Huh?
Umm...
Wasn't dodgeball enough for that?
We all gathered here, so it's better if we talked about something meaningful.
Yeah, we didn't come here just to have fun.
Oops.
...was what I wanted to do.
How maladroit of her.
We need to make this about something more meaningful.
Right, right.
Wh-What should we do?
We didn't even prepare to talk about anything meaningful.
Don't worry, Mikan-chan!
Manabi-chan!
Today's topic is...
"What should we do to make campus life exciting and wonderful?"
Exciting?
Wonderful?
What's that supposed to mean?
How maladroit of her.
Ehh...?
Manabi-chan...
I have no clue what she's saying.
The School Fair.
How about we talk about that?
Timing-wise, every school should be in the preparation phase for this,
so I believe it is a worthy topic for all of us to discuss, no?
If Aikoh's president says so.
Seioh's president is the one making the decision.
Right?
Let's go with that, then.
In the end...
In the end, Manabi-chan wasn't able to offer any suggestions.
Despite that, with Kakuzawa Takako-san leading the discussion,
the gathering ended up somewhat like a meaningful talk,
but the student council officers social gathering ended like this...
in a somewhat hard to digest fashion.
Don't worry about it!
It's just the way it ended up.
Yep, yep.
Dodgeball spiced things up quite well,
so just be satisfied with the turnout for now.
Ojisan, kaedama!
Note: Kaedama is what one says when one wants another pack of noodles added.
Me, too!
You got it.
Hey, you guys!
A soy-sauce ramen please!
Sure thing.
Hot!
So much for me worrying about you...
Well then.
See you then.
Good night.
Good night!
The School Fair, huh?
All right.
Forward...
You all seem sleepy!
You were the one that got us up!
Next station is Aikoh High School station,
Aikoh High School station.
Ooooo...
If you read over those papers,
you would probably have a good idea of what Aikoh's School Fair looks like.
Just ask me if there's something you want clarified.
I think I'd be able to answer most of your questions.
Wow...
Sorry for coming without any prior notice.
No, I need to apologize for yesterday.
You have your way of doing things,
so I was worried if I was disliked for my actions...
Of course not!
We were able to get through it thanks to you, Taka-chan.
You were our savior.
Right, Mikan-chan?
R-Right, right!
Hello?
She's in love, eh?
She's in love.
Hello?!
So, what do you think?
Did it provide you with any hints for your School Fair?
I might've lost my confidence now.
Your School Fair is so excellent.
Yeah.
It feels like we have a very high goal to achieve.
We might not be able to do something like this no matter how hard we try.
Hmph.
The difference between the level of the schools and the numbers of students is too wide.
Well then, we have our data now.
So, let's leave.
Right.
It's bad if we intrude for too long.
Thanks, Kakuzawa-san.
U-Umm!
I-I think you're a terrific Student Council President, Kakuzawa-san.
W-We'll do our best not to lose to you-
Ah, there's no way we'd win, but...
We'll work hard...
...and make it like Aikoh's...
...and we'll organize a wonderful School Fair.
Please come visit us then.
Bye then, Taka-chan.
Hey, wait.
It's nothing...
Good bye.
Thank you, guys, for coming today.
I might've felt a bit uneasy coming alone.
Hey, don't worry; it was fun.
It isn't something worth thanking for.
Hey, what was Kakuzawa-san trying to say at the end?
What, Mikan?
You were wondering about something like that?
Maybe she wanted us to pay for the coffee.
I don't think so.
What do you think, Manabi-chan?
It's nothing...
Good bye.
I'm home.
Welcome home.
Tonight's supper is pork kimchi and green bean-
I'll pass.
Is she in a rebellious stage?
For... ward...
GO!
That's right!
M-Manabi!
If there's something you want to tell me-
Later, later!
Eh, right now?!
It can't be tomorrow?
You can't say it over the phone?
I'm sleepy...
Tomorrow's too late!
I want to say it right now!
I can't express it over the phone!
I beg you, guys!
Get together...
...at school!
And?
What are you going to do?
Calling us out so late.
I understand now.
I understand what Taka-chan was trying to say.
What she was trying to say?
I think Taka-chan wanted to say this...
That we can do whatever kind of School Fair we want.
We can do an excellent School Fair like Taka-chan's school,
or we can do something that isn't like that, too!
And a School Fair that isn't like that is...
I don't know yet.
Let's all think about this together.
Instead of just copying Aikoh's School Fair...
...or striving to organize a school fair like Aikoh's...
...let's make a school fair that we thought of!
That only we can do!
The one and only in the whole world!
We can do this!
There's nothing set yet!
Everything's blank right now!
Completely blank!
That means we can do anything!
We are the ones that will draw it out...
...on this blank notebook...
...the one and only in the world...
...our own School Fair!
Not by any one person,
but by everyone!
We can definitely do this!
Our very own... eh?
Weren't you just told to take this more seriously?
But listening to her now makes us feel like we can accomplish this.
