Dear Onee-chan...
Rune Angel Members Dorm - Villa Angel
It's already been several months...
since I joined the Rune Angel Troupe.
What lovely weather! The laundry is drying lickety split!
Mew...
Huh?!
Nano da...
Hey, can you help me, Nano-chan?
Nice days are supposed to be spent sunbathing or napping outside.
That's what Boss said nano da.
Gee, Anise-san is always teaching you weird things!
I've gotten used to living with everyone in the dorms.
Hmmm...
Ungh... Take that, Mint! I'm done with my loan payments!
By the way, where is Kahlua-san?
She said she's doing an experiment nano da.
Mi... Mi... Miss Kahlua?!
Is this magic experiment really safe ni?
Oh my, Mimolette, you're such a worrywart.
Mimolette, this will make you very special!
I don't know what you mean ni!
Add a pinch of coarse salt to finish.
Salt! Why are you salting me?
Oh? Ohhh?
Oh?
S... Something is flashing ni!
Oh my, what should we do?
Wh... What do you mean ni?! Where are you going ni?! Miss Kahlua!
We have a lot of problems.
Oh no! My favorite underwear! Hm?
And we get weird visitors sometimes.
"Hey you! I need some help!" Says the Baron.
We have a visitor nano da.
But I, Rico, am doing my best!
Do you love me? Do you not?
(ONE TWO KISS, ONE TWO PUNCH)
If I punch into the future
(I see inside a girl's mind)
Ah, it's clear! Even if the door of the sky opens
TA-DA! You can't see through!
Aren't you coming? You are, right?
(CHERRY PIE, CHERRY ICE)
A sugary sweet friendship
(It's a taste of adulthood)
Oh no, kerplunk! Every day moves so fast
I want more! Rune-ru-rune!
I want to embrace it more
In the distance
There awaits the Rune Angel's destiny (Dance! ANGEL DANCE)
Never ending vast space
Sorry to cause so much trouble! (RUUUUNE!)
But I want to know
My heart is filled with passion (The stars are ANGEL LIGHT)
I can't stop! (Rai-rarai)
HIGH TENSION (WE ARE RIGHT Rune-ru-rune RUUUUNE!)
Let's go! WE LOVE YOU
Launch! Angels Scramble-Rune
Please have some tea.
"It smells wonderful," says the Baron.
Villa Angel 3rd Floor Common Area
Thank you very much.
So, what can we do for you?
"My name is Baron Garret!"
Baron Garret ni?
"In fact, I am a space criminal," says the Baron.
A space criminal?!
Sea of space is my sea.
You don't look like a space criminal.
"That doesn't matter!"
So, what does a space criminal need from us ni?
"I have decided to turn myself in!" Says the Baron.
What?! Turn yourself in?!
"Please cuff me!" says the Baron.
By the way, why are you standing out of frame, Mr. Butler?
My face is not to be broadcast.
Well, I guess that's okay.
So, what kind of crimes did you commit ni?
"I, Baron Garret, had planned to take over the galaxy!"
"I rallied 10,000 genocidal space ships!" Says the Baron strongly.
10,000 ships!
That's amazing!
"I'm pleased that you are impressed..."
"but I'd like to be humbled more," says the Baron.
Really?
Why are you turning yourself in nano da?
Oh... oh yeah! Why are you turning yourself in?
"Thank you for asking."
"I have suddenly become very sad."
Sad?
"Even though I rallied 10,000 genocidal ships..."
"no one would pick on... I mean pay attention to me."
"So that's why I decided to turn myself in," says the Baron prettily.
You want to be picked on?
He's a masochist nano da!
"Th... Th... That's not it," says the Baron.
Whatever! We can't arrest you without any evidence ni.
"You want evidence?!"
"Then have I got the handkerchief-shaped memory medium for you!"
As Seen on TV
The Handkerchief-Shaped Memory Medium!
What was that ni?
It looked like the beginning of an infomercial.
"I used to host one."
That's just a normal handkerchief nano da.
"No, it's a handkerchief-shaped memory medium!"
"It's filled with embarrassing photos of me... No!"
"I have detailed records of how I assembled 10,000 genocidal ships!" says the Baron.
That's not good enough ni!
We cannot accept evidence from an unreliable source ni.
Ni!
"H... H... H... Humiliate me further!"
"Oh, pussy cat! Rub, rub, rub, rub, rub-a-dub..."
Umm, I understand!
"Are you going to humble me or not?" Asks the Baron.
Regardless, we'll take the handkerchief, investigate it, and will get back to you!
Oh no! Wh... What happened to the dorm?!
Villa Angel Manager Kuchen Baum
It totally blew up!
Who committed this atrocity?!
Oh, Manager. Why don't you settle down?
How can I settle down when you blew up a whole room, Kahlua?!
I even got thrown into the sky ni.
I was blown away, too.
Ka-boom nano da!
Yes, it was a very strong explosion. Tee hee.
What do you mean, "Tee hee?"
What am I to do?! Oh, I can't believe this!
Who's there?!
Ba... Baron Garret!!!
Who the hell are you?!
Kuchen-san, please calm down!
"This green onion is lovely," says the Baron.
To any bum who loiters around my dorm, I say...
Get lost!
Baron!
Wasn't he supposed to be our guest?
We are bad hosts, I fear nano da.
Who's queer? Anyway, Apricot!
Yes?
I got 25 complaints from neighbors...
who found underwear with your name after the explosion!
What?! I lost at least 30 pairs of underwear alone.
Oh my. I wonder if they were stolen.
What?! They were my favorite!
Well, a dog will be a dog.
Nano-Nano is a cat nano da.
Oh my, Nano-Nano.
Are you girls listening to me?!
Oh, I haven't seen Lily at all today.
Oh, Lily-san went...
to the mayor's office to see about a campaign against space criminals.
Transbaal City Hall
This month...
it is imperative that security be multiplied.
Transbaal Mayor Dorten Bein
You're robotic as usual, Mayor.
Irrelevant. Do you comprehend, Lily?
Yes, sir.
In addition...
the Seldor government has issued an arrest warrant.
The Rune Angel Troupe is required to keep an eye out for him.
He is rumored to be dangerous despite his appearance.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
We visited all the people that contacted us nano da.
I'm still missing some...
We're lucky we found like this many nano da.
I guess.
Oh?
"Hey! Can't you discount this cake a little more?"
"Oh! It's you!" says the Baron, in a friendly tone.
It's Baron Garret nano da.
What are you doing?
"Oh, I was just thinking about you," says the Baron handsomely.
About me?
Probably about, you know, the thing nano da!
What?!
"Y... You're looking at me with suspicion!"
"Oh! Please give me more scornful looks," says the Baron.
I... I'm going to arrest you!
"I tried to turn myself in!" Says the Baron.
Please stop squirming.
He's a masochist nano da!
"How rude! I'm a high-profile space criminal!"
"I gave you my handkerchief as proof!" Says the Baron.
We'll check it out and get back to you for sure.
"Oh! That handkerchief!"
"Give it back!"
Wh... What are you doing?!
Grabbing a girl's clothes like that!
He's a pervert nano da!
"Ooh! Please don't be cruel! Give it back!"
Eeeeeeeek!
He is squirming! The Baron is squirming! Please continue! Continue!
Baron!!!
Ooooh!
Oh no, I'm sorry! I did it again!
Um, are you okay?
Rico-tan becomes super-strong Rico-tan when a man touches her nano da.
"Wh... What a useless character profile. That's it."
"I'll take this and turn myself in to the space police."
"By the way, you were great," says the Baron.
Everyone! Rico brought us some cakes!
Oh, they look delicious!
Rico-tan bought them when we went to pick up her underwear nano da.
Oh, you shouldn't have.
Rico is so considerate.
It was your magic's fault to begin with, Miss Kahlua.
I'll get it right tomorrow.
You haven't cast any weird spells on the cakes, have you?
Oh my, I would never do that, Manager.
Should I believe you?
Let's eat now nano da!
Yawn...
Morning!
It's the Boss nano da!
Good morning, Anise-san!
How are you?
Were you still asleep?
The explosion didn't wake you up ni?
What explosion?
Boss is awesome!
Hey! What's this?!
Rico-tan bought us some cakes nano da.
Cakes, huh? She's awfully thoughtful first thing in the morning!
It's already lunchtime, honey.
Good afternoon, everyone.
I have returned.
Lily-san! Welcome back!
Welcome back!
Hmm. Something smells nice and sweet.
Apricot bought them for us.
Let's hurry up and eat!
Second Lieutenant Azeat.
Are you dressed like that because you have been sleeping until now?
What's it to ya?! I can do whatever I want on my day off.
I want this one! The crunchy chocolate one!
Wait!
Wh... What?
There is only one of each type of cake as far as I can tell.
Oh, you have good eyes.
If that's the case...
we need to let Second Lieutenant Sakuraba choose first, since she bought them.
That is the way of morality!
What?
That's just like you, Lily-san. That sounds like common sense.
Is that a compliment ni?
Why the hell does that mean you have to put a sword to my throat?
Shut up! At least, I will not allow someone...
who has been sleeping until noon to take the first pick.
That goes against the way of the sword.
That's stupid! What does this have to do with swords?
You cold-hearted woman!
What did you say?!
Are you belittling the way of the sword?! Damn you!
I challenge you to a duel, Anise Azeat!
I accept your challenge!
Oh my, what should we do?
Go for it, Boss!
Umm, please calm down, you two.
Let's just forget about them and eat our cake.
Bon appetit!
Now then, I'm sorry to bother you while you're eating...
but I would like you to take a look at this. Here.
What the hell? We're eating, so don't dump your stupid papers all over, man!
This is a warrant from the Seldor government.
What a pain.
Golly! You're so cheeky!
Absolutely ni! Since you're in the Rune Angel Troupe...
she's giving you a break on your loan ni!
Oh, benevolent Mint.
I'm lightly salted ni.
Don't mention Mint's name to me.
W... Well, it's our duty as Rune Angel Troupe...
to protect the peace of the galaxy.
We should help when we ca... Ack!
Oh! I'm so sorry Kahlua-san!
That's NG.
What startled you?
Because... Oh!
She's getting all shiny nano da.
Damn, it's her.
She turned into Tequila nano da!
Uh... umm, Kahlua-san. I mean, T... Tequila-san...
Sakuraba, honey.
Y... Yes ma'am.
You don't need to be scared.
Ummm...
How is it?
It's sweet, with a slight hint of rum...
That's right. That sweetness is...
the taste of a woman.
Oh! Onee-sama!
- Hey, Tequila. That's enough. - I'm mesmerized nano da.
There are some things they don't allow on television.
Tsk! Fine. I was so close.
Tequila-san!
Close to what?
Oh, darn it! I'm all sticky!
Sakuraba, get me something to wipe this off!
Oh, yes ma'am! One second!
I should have a handkerchief... Umm...
Space Police Station
"I brought the evidence!"
"C'mon, please embarrass... I mean, please arrest me!" says the Baron.
Oh yeah. That handkerchief that you brought.
We scanned it thoroughly, and the results indicate...
that it is just an ordinary handkerchief.
"That's impossible!"
Oh? This handkerchief...
Is this Mr. Garret's?
Oh no, does that mean that he took mine?
Who are you anyway?
Did you come here just to eat our tonkatsu rice? Huh?
"H... H... How dare you!"
"Threatening me with your secret weapon, tonkatsu rice?!"
"That's wonderful! I can't hold it anymore!" says the Baron.
You idiot! Go home already! We're busy! Get lost!
"Lovely! I can't hold it any longer!"
What's going on?!
"Ecstasy Explosion!"
So, Sakuraba, what startled you earlier?
Oh, I forgot! That's right! It's this!
This person! He was here this morning!
For real?
He was here nano da.
Oh, that's right! I tossed him out this morning.
He was here?
Why did he come to the dorm?
I don't know, but he was all squirmy.
He's a masochist.
A masochist nano da!
Where is he now?
I don't know. I've got his contact information just in case, though.
Seldor Space Observation Center
W... What the hell is that?
It appeared suddenly near Seldor.
Those ship silhouettes... and this enormous one is...
Space Station Rune Alpha
Rune Angel Troupe!
A large number of unregistered spaceships and a large unidentified...
massive object have appeared in the NEUE area.
Transbaal Garrison Force Commander Isabella Essence
The NEUE area and Seldor are being surrounded!
Second Hangar, all ships, prepare to launch.\
The ships and the object have issued no claim or battle action.
All ships, prepare to launch.
Rune Angel Troupe deploy in the Emblem Frames at once!
When you get there, hold for further orders.
Second Hangar, open the air lock.
Second Hangar, begin deployment.
Cross Caliber, Relic Raider, First Aider, Spell Caster, Eagle Gazer, ready to launch!
Rune Angel Troupe, blast off!
What's going on?
Today's supposed to be a holiday.
Will we get overtime pay for this?
No.
What?!
Boss, you're a cheapskate nano da.
Oh! Everyone, look!
Oh!
That's...
Oh gosh, it's sooo big!
It's as big as a planet.
There's no mistaking him. That's Mr. Garret!
Status report!
There are as many as 10,000 ships nano da!
He wasn't lying when he said he had 10,000 ships.
"How dare you bully me?! Please bully me more!"
Mr. Butler is
here somewhere.
Mr. Butler is
here somewhere.
"No, I won't forgive you," says the Baron violently!
Mr. Butler is
here somewhere.
Mr. Butler is
here somewhere.
Yikes!
Emblem Frames, move into battle formation!
Roger!
Cross Caliber, Relic Raider and Spell Caster, transform and get into formation!
Roger!
First Aider, fall back beyond the battlefield!
Be prepared to heal!
Roger nano da!
There are no life signs, except for the big thing and the mother ship.
All the rest must be unmanned!
Are they remote controlled from the mother ship?
Oh no!!!
That's a lot of missiles!
"Take that! Garret Stick!"
Whoa! Something's headed this way!
Oh, that's too big!
All ships retreat! Retreat!
Please forgive me!
"C'mon! Please! Please humiliate me!" Says the Baron.
Mr. Butler is
here somewhere.
There's no way we can avoid all of these!
Whoa! Shoot, I got hit!
No! Please forgive me!
No!!!
M... M... Miss Tequila!
What's wrong? Report status!
Cross Caliber, Relic Raider and Spell Caster are hit!
The enemy's firepower is too strong...
Darn it! We're in trouble!
Ugh... What should we do?
"More! More!" says the Baron!
Whoa! Shoot!
What can we do?
All ships retreat! Retreat!
I'm... I'm sorry, everyone! Onee-chan!
Rico-tan, you're outside the battle area nano da.
Huh?
Hey! Where the heck are you going?
But... But...
Besides, what do you mean you're sorry?
Um... Actually, Mr. Garret tried to turn himself in this morning...
but he smelled fishy, so I asked him to leave.
Geez.
Why didn't you arrest him?
It's easy to say so, but...
He might've liked it if you tied him up.
Ugh! We need to act fast to solve this!
Mr. Butler is
in this ship.
"It's too late! You dismissed a high-profile space criminal as a little creep..."
"Said I was just stealing tonkatsu rice, and called me a masochist! How dare you!"
"Please do it much more!"
He's definitely a masochist.
A masochist nano da.
What's tonkatsu rice?
That's not me.
Never mind! We must regroup at once!
Mr. Butler is
in this ship.
First, we need to silence their leader.
Then the function of the fleet will be weakened.
But how can we handle something so large?
He's a masochist!
Huh?
Therefore his power must get stronger each time we attack!
Then what should we do?
Ignore him!
I... Ignore him?
I forbid any attacks on him from now on!
Understand? Leave him alone!
I repeat! Ignore him!
Roger!
One Hour Later
"Why won't you pay attention to me?"
The Rune Angel Troupe is around here.
"Huh? Huh?" says the Baron.
Three Hours Later
"Hey, did I do something wrong?"
The Rune Angel Troupe is around here.
"Don't you want to bully... I mean, pay attention to me?" says the Baron.
Six Hours Later
"Aaaaagh! I can't take it anymore!"
The Rune Angel Troupe is around here.
"Please humiliate me!" Says the Baron!
Now!
Second Lieutenant Pudding!
Yes sir nano da!
Repair Wave Energy, full power nano da!
Go!
Start healing nano da!
Everyone! Let's wipe them out!
Roger!
Oh, please get a hold of yourself, Baron!
Mr. Butler
is here
somewhere.
Mr. Butler
is here
somewhere.
Mr. Butler
is here
somewhere.
We'll arrest you this time!
Here we go!
Ummm... Shoot nano da!
If we get in close, he's all ours!
Oh! Please stay away!
There's a life sign! It's the mother ship!
The antenna acquired! Cut it off!
Oh! The antenna!
Second Lieutenant Sakuraba! Aim for the engine!
I hope it hits!
Oh! The engine! The engine was...!
Oh! It's dark! It's so dark!
It stopped. Yay! We did it, everyone!
Hooray!
Well done, all of you.
Oh, we've been totally defeated, Baron.
We can finally be arrested.
Good job!
It was a tough one.
You gotta be more careful next time, Rico.
I'm sorry!
Now Mr. Garret is imprisoned as he wished ni.
Everything turned out perfect.
Hey!
Did anyone actually bring him in?
Aren't you the one who said you'd arrest him?
What? But...
Oh my, you're so careless.
Oh no! I'm so sorry!
"Being ignored isn't so bad," says the Baron.
When you tippy toe and peek into tomorrow
You can see the horizon Isn't it close?
My long-held aspiration now flaps in the sky
Open up your arms, look forward and hum!
For the angel's dreams, and the angel's wish
Giving us hope
For the angel's dreams, and the angel's wish
Get into the rhythm
Let's fly off!
The wings will be waiting flying through the spacious sky
You are not alone
With the invincible signal
The stardust from a shooting star
Right where it fell
The sparkling dreams are breathing
Happy flight!
It's almost time for the winter sale!
Yes!
I have a small request.
No problem! Please tell me. Fire away!
Ka-boom!
