kirakirakira kagayaki o minogasanaide
Don't miss the brightly shining light
anata no soba ni itsumo iru yo
that's always there beside you.

Then I'm sure the rest just depends on your perception.

You don't have to search for it, just notice that it's there!

There's a tenderness that lies hidden behind the most common things:

A light that showers our days in color!

(Tiny Life) This world is constructed...
(Tiny Days) sekai wa dekiteru
(Tiny Days) ...by fragments of miracles!

Things that seemed meaningless at one point

were actually protecting us, loving us... without us even knowing.
(Tiny Heart) afuredasu omoi
(Tiny Heart) A feeling flows forth...
(Tiny House) subete ni arigatou
(Tiny House) ...giving thanks for everything we've been given.

We'll never, ever forget...

cherishing this feeling forevermore!
AO and TC Subs presents:
Timing: Wilczur Script: Tohno OP: Haruto QC: bumbaloee & Popo_
Let's Go to School
I'll be back!
I'm gonna be late!
She could've just set her charge timer.
Is she an idiot?
I'm not quite sure, but I don't think humans possess that function.
Well, whatever. It's all such a pain.
Hey, Base! You keep recharging like that and you might end up becoming human.
Base?
Base, what's wrong?!
Base! Answer me!
What should we do Gourai? Base isn't moving!
Stylet, isn't it possible that...
This isn't Base?
Whaaat?!
I didn't notice!
There's something written on it.
I'm going to school with Ao. Please don't look for us.
"I'm going to school with Ao.
Please don't look for us."
This is...
THAT IDIOT!
Good morning!
Wakaba Municipal Girls' School
Oh, really?
So, like, I went to Meguro!
Base! What are you doing here?!
Where are Gourai and Sty-ko?
It's just me.
Ao? What's going on?
Ah, Bukiko! Good morning.
No, nothing's wrong!
For reals?
Hey, Bukiko, you do your homework?
Of course!
Can you let us see?
You guys, I swear!
Score!
Well, there's not much I can do now that you're here...
But you have to behave. No acting up, okay?
Base, is always well-behaved!
F. A. Girl!
Heavy...
Even without your equipment, you're way too heavy!
I'm sorry.
Unlike you who's designed for aerial combat, my model is-
Fine, whatever.
But this is really gonna drain my battery!
What are we doing today?
I heard it's basketball.
Adventure time!
Squad Member Baselard takes her first step into unfamiliar territory...
Hup, hup, hup, hup, hup!
Ah! I found something shiny!
Squad Member Baselard wastes no time in finding treasure!
Baselard!
We found you, Base!
Now let's go back home!
No way!
Turnsies!
Laters!
Hey, stop right there!
We should stop that water.
It'd be bad if we get wet so be careful.
You can do it!
Here!
I'll get it.
Thanks!
Help us!
You both came too?!
My tummy hurts. I'm going to head to the nurse's office.
That girl, I swear... What is she thinking?
We can't expose ourselves like that!
Indeed.
Still, it's boring just staying indoors all the time, right?
Indeed.
Just whose side are you on?!
I knew it! Frame Arms Girls!
Bukiko?!
Wait, hold up! I've never seen these models!
I can't take it! This construction is awesome!
They're like 2D pictures that have been perfectly rendered!
Their joints move so beautifully....
At 3mm, they're perfectly interchangeable!
Factory Advance has the greatest techniques in the world, huh?!
And what's with the way they talk?
Tell me, what kind of program are they installed with?!
Seriously, I was sure you had some F.A.Girls on you earlier.
Y-you're pretty observant...
I, Bukiko Kotobuki, can ID the scent of model kits even if under water or caged in by fire!
And believe me, when they release a limited-edition kit, I'm the first in line!
Is that so?
Still, to think you got some test models...
Great job, your majesty!
I, Bukiko, am super impressed!
What's more, the programming on these is awesome.
The hawk knows when to hide its talons, huh?
I wanna see the source code.
It's okay, this won't hurt...
That might be Base.
Let's go!
What happened?
I went to sit down when all of a sudden, my chair just...
The lead's gone from my pencil!
Huh? My hair clip is gone.
Did I lose my pin badge somewhere?
The handle came off my bag.
They say all the cafeteria spoons and forks went missing!
Where did the mirror go?
So, tracking down these incidents brings us here.
I wonder if Baselard's behind this.
But why would she...
Intriguing...
Anyway, let's go take a look!
Huh? She's not here.
Base! What are you doing?
Howdy, Ao!
Gourai and Stylet came too huh?
School is really fun!
I might start coming here every day.
Stop talking nonsense!
You're not getting rid of me!
Playing catch is fun!
Stop right there!
That's enough!
What should we do? Stylet can't handle her all alone, right?
Still, it's not like we can fly...
I, Bukiko, have a cunning plan!
I swear!
Base, you need to cut this out!
SPLOOOSH, homina homina.
Which of these nippers did you lose, the gold ones or these silver ones?
Hmm... Which was it again?
Or was it these?
Hailing from Hokuriku, an area renowned for blade manufacturing.
Single-edged Design
Rugged Spring
Ultra-hard, Lightweight Body
these particular nippers are famous the world over,
having been made in conjunction with a legendary maker of countless industrial tools,
Straight edge
Handle stop
Soft Grip
and having unparalleled durability and cutting potential...
Easy-grip Design
Precise adjustment
Maximum open stop
Was it these sparkling Kotobuki nippers you lost?
Wow, you're right! They really do sparkle!
I know, right?
These Kotobuki Nippers are a must-have for all modelers!
Your average human or F.A. Girl just doesn't get how awesome they are!
They are the chosen tools, I say!
Um, I'd like to take a look at those...
Wow, this F.A. Girl does get the difference!
The main thing about these Kotobuki Nippers is their unique, slightly curved blades.
Ooh! I see.
Now, Gourai!
Understood, Ao!
Got you!
That wasn't easy, huh?
Yeah, got that right.
I feel like not a single good thing has happened today...
That sure was fun!
It wasn't fun for me at all!
Really? What about you, Gourai?
You had fun, right?
"Fun"?
Yeah! All of us playing chase and hide-and-seek together!
Fun... I see.
This is "fun"!
Yes! It was very fun!
It was a bit troublesome though.
Still, that was great how you knew Base likes sparkly things.
There is no mystery that Bukiko, the famous detective, cannot solve!
Especially when paired with Stylet-chan's resolve, Ao's acting, and Gourai-chan's hunting skills!
That's a stretch...
W-Well, it was a team victory.
Something impossible on our own becomes possible when we work together!
Here comes the Materia Sisters
I'm home...
Welcome back, Ao. Huh?
Wait, what happened to you?!
Yeesh. You're filthy, Ao!
I was playing with some goats on the way back, and one thing led to another...
That must have been some intense playing.
Why are you all wet?
Don't ask that!
One thing led to another, all right?! Anyway, I'm taking a shower!
Oh, we got another package in the mail.
You can go ahead and open it.
Do you think it's a new F.A. Girl?
Probably.
Let's hurry up and open it!
This is...
Did we arrive?
Oh, my! You're-
Gourai-chan, aren't you?
Smooch.
And one for you, Stylet-chan.
Smooch.
And you, Baselard-chan.
Smooch.
Pleased to meet you.
Oh! some new faces!
You guys look alike. Are you sisters?
What are your names?
We're Materia. Call us "Materia".
So, you're Materia?
and you're Materia?
You're both named "Materia"?
That's right.
Our body frame was the model for all of us.
We two were designed together and made together.
So we also share the same name.
That's going to make things confusing.
It's just weird!
Oh, dear. It hasn't been a problem up 'till now.
We don't mind if you call us both "Materia".
Yes, but still...
White!
Black!
Otherwise, it'd be a pain, so those are your names. Okay?
Ah! I'm "White"!
And I'm "Black."
It's a little embarrassing, isn't it?
Still, it's not all that bad.
They seem like nice girls, huh?
Is that so? I can't really tell.
Yeah, it's hard to...
Wait, that's not the point! We need to battle them!
That's why you're here right?
Oh, dear. It totally slipped our minds.
How careless of us.
Oh! So you're gonna battle, huh?
Yes, of course.
Girls like you, so new...
...and shiny...
...and cute.
It really...
...Truly...
...will be a pleasure to crush you!
You will be destroyed oh-so-expertly.
I'm sure it will feel wonderful.
Pain is the ultimate pleasure, yes?
Be sure your screams are appropriate.
Why did it have to be me?
Base-chan had the same "scent" about her as us.
If we're going to destroy someone, a girl as strong yet fragile as you would be more fun.
Fine, whatever!
Very well. Please attach your armor.
No, we're fine like this.
After all, you won't hit us.
Our weapons will be...
...more than enough.
Stylet, are you familiar with those weapons?
No, I've never seen them before.
Whoa! Those are the Grind Circle and the Beastmaster Sword!
I've heard they're hard to use. These Materia girls are awesome!
Huh, really?
There is no data on those weapons.
It would be risky to dive in unprepared.
With talk like that, we'd never collect any data at all!
Just cover me.
Gourai!
Stylet!
Materia!
Frame Arms Girl Session...
Here we come. I'll crush you.
Go! Just you watch!
I'm about to get serious!
Smooch.
Come peer into our secret garden.
I'll take White, so you take Black!
Stylet!
Welcome. We shall fawn on you.
I can't get a lock on her!
Gotcha!
Dummy! You need to stop Black for me!
But you're in the line of fire.
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
Stylet-chan, your back is wide open!
You have nice legs, Gourai-chan.
I just want to start at the ends and carve my way up.
Come on, let me hear some wonderful screams.
What's going on? I can't attack her at all!
Stylet! At this rate, individual attacks are no good!
We have to battle as a team too!
Just stay out of my way!
Oh, my. Are they having a falling out?
How sad.
Ah, I can't bear to watch this!
Isn't there anything they can do?
It's too bad they don't get along better.
There's no way they can suddenly force it!
Oh, wait!
Bukiko put together a prototype weapon! Um...
Instruction Manual
Let's see...
Hey there, Ao! Well, I finished it - a new weapon for the F.A. Girls!
I call it, "Prototype Heavy Weapon Unit 17 Revolving Buster Cannon"!
Seriously, using these super awesome parts makes even the runner inlet a work of art, right?
And I totally painted it up nice and perfect, am I right?
The black finish gives it a sense of weight.
And check out that Panzer grey coloring!
Ah, it really is an awesome color. I wanna marry it!
I wanna be Bukiko Panzer Grey-Kotobuki!
But it was the 5:1 mixture of rusty brown and streaking grime that yours truly insists on.
That gives it a realistic, oil-stained look that-
Anyway, this is it!
Wait, how do I give this to them?
Um, put it on Gourai's base and then swipe it on your phone.
Gourai, use this!
Understood!
This is...
The workmanship is incredible.
It's worlds apart from the crude weapons that Ao slaps together.
With this, I can win for sure!
How are we supposed to hit her if we can't even read her movements?
Well, I'll figure something out. Something!
Fine. I'll be the decoy.
No, you can't! One false move and-!
What's impossible on our own becomes possible when we work together, right?
Just make sure you hit her.
Okay!
Here we go!
Oh my, oh my.
Begin energy charge!
Anything yet?!
Just a little longer!
I'll only have one sure chance to defeat the Materia sisters.
I have to make sure it's charged 100%!
Going after a girl like Stylet-chan and making her grovel is the best!
Sure enough, the cutest face is one that's streaked with snot and tears.
Go on, cry.
Scream.
Break, and then break some more.
Give it a rest already, you perverts.
Charging complete!
Stylet, get out of the way!
Revolving Buster Cannon - Maximum output!
Fire!
Winners: Gourai and Stylet.
Thank you, Stylet.
We won thanks to you.
You took your time charging that thing, you idiot.
They're getting along?
There's always a silver lining, huh?
Huh? You're staying?!
Yes. We couldn't bear to leave as losers.
And we have to collect data of our own.
Staying would be most efficient, don't you think?
Also...
We've taken an interest in Stylet-chan.
We want to hear more - even more - of your screams.
Look, quit fooling around!
Ao, get these fools out of here!
Yeah, I don't think I can take in any more.
That's too bad.
Having us here would lead to more battles...
...which would mean more money for you.
I'm so happy to see our new family grow!
It's all right, Stylet-chan.
You'll get used to it soon. It only hurts at first.
That's right. Taste us once, and your body will forever crave us.
Stylet, you're such a cutie.
Come on, Gourai. Don't you have anything to add?
It's no use, Stylet. This is Ao's decision.
That's not fair!
I'm leaving!
I'm going back to Factory Advance!
Ah, I can already smell the money!
White here!
Black here.
Let's be utter sadists today as well.
Sadistic in the sense of, "hurry up and get on your knees."
"Jinrai Appears!"
"Redecorating is fun"
In the sense of, "that's hardly enough to start trembling."
Next time on Frame Arms Girl,
Let's have a session together, okay?
