This is Apricot.
I acquired the target comet!
Rico, this isn't no ordinary comet, right?
Hot spring! It's a hot spring nano da!
That's right!
This entire comet is a hot spring!
Makes your skin shiny and beautiful!
Tequila-san, this will help refresh your dry skin, won't it?
If you say any more than that, I'm going to punish you, Sakuraba!
What? You're going to hit and slap me?
Our mission is to investigate that comet.
Hot spring! Hot spring!
Be quiet, Second Lieutenant Pudding!
Sorry nano da.
Come on! Don't get so mad.
It's the first time we've gone to a hot spring, let alone seen one.
So it makes sense to be excited about it!
That's right nano da! That's Boss nano da!
That goes against the way of the sword! We must complete our mission first!
Geez! If you keep getting mad, you'll get creases around your eyes.
You should always smile.
It's none of your business!
Welcome... Welcome...!
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
Boiling! Hot Spring Commercial-Rune
From the data collected thus far...
that comet is orbiting at a pace of several million years.
This must be the legendary Hot Spring Comet, then!
Legendary...
Hot Spring Comet?!
It's tonight's dinner!
Shubi-bin! Shubi-bin! Subi-biiin!
Second Lieutenant Sakuraba!
You weren't listening to anything during the meeting, were you?!
I'm sorry!
I was trying to decide...
if I should buy bunny pajamas or cow pajamas at the time.
Cow?!
I prefer bunny...
Mayor?
Let me explain the Hot Spring Comet.
It's a legendary comet from the stellar system, Messier.
It orbits every several million years...
offering hot spring services to the planets it passes by...
and it provides the people with relaxation, harmony and rejuvenation.
Oh, this is great.
This is heaven.
It has even brought peace to planetary wars too.
If we collect data from the Hot Spring Comet and discover the mystery of it...
we might be able to gain the benefits of the hot springs for eternity.
Peace to planetary wars?
Wow, the Hot Spring Comet is amazing!
We're going to investigate it thoroughly!
Huh?
What is it?
A simultaneous broadcast on all channels ni!
Geez, you're so pushy!
Idiot! Cut the communication line!
Everyone, don't make a move! If you do, it could be dangerous!
Okay.
Jet Engine Open 100%.
Oh, I pushed the wrong button!
Ouch!
What are you doing, Second Lieutenant Sakuraba?!
Hello? Hello?
Huh?
O... Ouch.
Where are we?
D... Did we survive?
It smells nano da.
Sorry.
I think my welcome message may have caused your ships to crash.
No, it's not your fault.
It's all Rico's fault.
Is that true, Rico?
It smells nano da.
I'm so sorry.
No, I was excited about having guests after such a long time.
It smells nano da.
Here you go.
Oh... Thank you.
No!
When Rico is touched by a man...
She becomes super strong!
You're going to die nano da.
What?!
N... Nothing happened?!
Even though she was touched by a boy?
Huh? Oh, I wonder why I'm okay.
He smells different from other kids nano da.
He smells nano da?
It's time for you.
Mimolette!
Why me ni?
I got it ni.
This boy materialized because of an electromagnetic wave...
but he is not a real human ni.
I see.
Hot, hot, hot!
That's why Rico was okay when he touched her.
What the hell are you?!
Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot to explain earlier.
I'm a conscious entity that welcomes guests when they arrive on this comet.
Conscious entity?!
I was made millions of years ago...
to help everyone in space have fun at the hot spring.
It's an artificial comet, then.
Yes.
So new guests! Please take a look!
That is the coveted hot spring of this star!
So that's the hot spring we've heard about!
Um... Uh... Huh?
What should we call you?
Huh? I don't have a name...
Um, then how about Hot Spring Boy!
Hot Spring Boy?
Yes! Hot Spring Boy!
Hot Spring Boy...
I've never been named before.
Thank you!
This is the dream comet that can end all wars...
But it seems a bit lonely.
Um, you don't have any friends here, Hot Spring Boy?
Friends?
No, I'm the only one here.
What? Aren't you lonely?
Hot Spring Comet Private Parking Lot Coming up Next
Lonely?
I don't know what that means.
Oh, but I'm pretty busy maintaining the facility and creating pamphlets.
Welcome to Hot Spring Comet
I see.
And today's guests are especially perky, so I'm really happy.
I'm happy when you all are happy.
Anyway, this place is humid, though.
Just bear with it.
There is hot water sprouting out from all over the place.
Welcome Rune Angel
Troupe Members
Oh, I'm sorry about that.
Then please imagine an outfit that would be cool.
What happens when I imagine it nano da?
This star will read your thoughts...
and materialize the outfits from your imagination.
Wow. Then let's try it!
It's true. This is awesome!
Then Nano-Nano will wear this nano da!
Oh! That's pretty cool!
Both of you are wearing silly outfits...
What'd you say? Then what would you wear?
We should go elegant and wear a yukata...
And that's a yukata?
Wow, that's great, Lily-san! It's very chic.
I'm sure she was thinking something dumb.
Boss, you're sharp nano da!
I'll cut you!
Kahlua, what were you imagining?
Th... This wasn't my thought, but must be her thought.
Her
It's just you left, sis.
Well... what should I wear?
I know! I think I'll try bunny pajamas, then!
Here I go!
Huh?
Those aren't pajamas at all!
Rico-tan, you're cute nano da.
Well, then, is everyone done changing?
You looked better in the last one, Lily.
Shut up.
Then before we head over to the hot spring...
What's this?!
Hot Spring Boy?
What are you doing?!
We were tricked limbo.
We can't move nano da.
What? This is a service.
Onee-chan!
Hot Spring Comet
Danger
Princess, we located the Hot Spring Comet.
Hot Spring Comet...
That is...
Hot Spring Comet
Danger
a demon comet!
Danger
Ouch limbo!
S... Stop that!
Stop it nano da.
Ouch! Ouch! Don't push there!
Yes, Anise-san isn't getting enough sleep.
Th... That's because... I've been playing online games lately.
Ouch! Th... That is... limbo!
Kahlua-san, you use your hips too much.
Th... That's because...
she dances the dark ballroom dance every night.
Her
I... I must endure this.
Lily-san's stomach isn't doing well.
I... I have lots of stress!
It's strong nano da.
Nano-Nano, your back isn't straight.
Nano-Nano likes to sleep curled up nano da.
It tickles! Please stop!
Um, sis, you don't have anything wrong with you.
I... I knew it.
She doesn't look like she has any stress... limbo!
It's cause she's not thinking anythi...!
Rico-tan looks like she's having fun nano da.
Please... stop!
Oh, that was fun.
How did you like the Hot Spring Comet's special foot massage?
But why did you do that?
When guests arrive on this Hot Spring Comet...
we give them a massage to get data on each person's health.
Did you like it?
Not at all!
Welcome to Hot Spring Comet
So why do we have to line up?
Start
It's because it makes you feel much better to take a bath...
after you're heated up with a battle than to have one immediately.
I see.
Don't just accept that.
Of course, we have a super special service...
for the first person who arrives at the hot spring.
Special service...
Yay! A special service!
Special service nano da!
That's good, Nano.
Okay, then! Get ready...
Geez, we're not going to do this...
See you later.
Oh, the first thing we see is the rest area of the hot spring!
Hot Spring Sweet Buns
Over here...
All-you-can-eat hot spring eggs and hot spring sweet buns!
It's a duel!
Who ever eats them all first, wins!
I won't lose!
Oh, my... they started it again.
They're such good friends.
What's that nano da?
Sauna Machine
This is a luxury sauna machine...
for those who feel like they haven't sweat enough!
Nano-Nano wants to go into boxes like that nano da!
It feels good nano da.
Wow, I'm jealous of Nano-chan.
Oh, my.
Oh?
Is this a hot spring too?
It says "Foot Bath."
I'll just go in.
What's with this bath?
Oh, this is an electrically charged hot spring.
There's a low volt electric charge running through it, and it's good for blood circulation.
Oh, I don't need my blood circulation...
to be better! The problem is...
changing back and forth...
it's hard to play two roles.
Wow! That's an amazing performance!
Look, sis.
The goal is coming up.
Oh, I see.
Please enjoy yourself, Kahlua-san and Tequila-san!
Please wait, Sakuraba.
Does it look like we're having fun?
We're almost at the hot spring.
Yes, please enjoy yourself.
Okay!
Sakuraba! What are you doing here?
Natsume-san?
That star is a demon comet! You must escape now!
What? Why?
This Hot Spring Comet is lots of fun.
Plus it even resolved an interplanetary war long ago too!
The way it was solved was the problem!
Huh?
The reason why the interplanetary war ended...
wasn't because the people changed their minds.
They overheated from the hot water and all died out!
Poof...
No... No way.
We are going to destroy it with our fleet!
You should get out of there immediately!
Prepare the Planet Explosion Missile.
Prepare the Planet Explosion Missile!
Wh... What's going on?!
This is Suzuki!
Engine Room Suzuki
Hot spring sweet buns appeared in the engine room!
Weapons Armory Suzuki
This is Suzuki.
Hot spring eggs appeared in the weapons armory!
All Suzukis eating it can't eat enough of them!
Wh... What's going on?!
This is Suzuki! The radar room turned into a sauna room!
Someone is attacking with an item transport!
This is Suzuki! There is... Oooh! Electricity in the cafeteria!
Princess! We must retreat!
Wh... What's going on?!
Dammit, Hot Spring Comet...
It's always like this...
Huh?
They have fun at first...
but when they find out that I could be a menace, then they try to destroy me.
Hot Spring Boy...
I just...
I just wanted everyone to enjoy themselves...
Second Lieutenant Sakuraba!
Return to your Emblem Frame. We must launch immediately!
Huh?
But that's...
Rico! Hurry!
Y... Yes.
We received your transmission.
Destroy the Hot Spring Comet immediately!
Roger!
As you heard. All members, prepare to attack!
Alright!
Roger!
It's sad nano da.
I just wanted everyone to enjoy themselves...
We'll sync together.
Counting 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...
Thank you. It's the first time someone named me.
I can't!
We can't sacrifice someone for our own benefit!
We could never!
Target Locked
Oh!
Oh, no... I did it again...
Hey!
You don't care if your allies are sacrificed?!
My butt hurts nano da!
You better remember this!
I... I... I'm sorry!
Thank you, sis.
Hot Spring Boy?
It's the first time I met someone who said things like that to me.
I haven't done it before, but I'll do it.
Wh... What?
Change direction.
Then your planet will be safe.
You can do that?!
H... Hey, look!
The course of the Hot Spring Comet is...!
It's changing nano da.
But there's too much stress... It's falling apart!
Sis...
Good-bye...
Hot Spring Boy!!!
Oh?
It's a shooting star!
I hope I get more screen time.
I hope I get more screen time!
Oh! I got some lines!
Wha... What?!
Ah, this is heaven. This is a hot spring!
Oh, I feel rejuvenated!
Let's wash each other nano da!
Scrub, scrub to get smooth skin!
I didn't think that the hot spring part of the comet...
would fall on top of Villa Angel.
Now we can bathe in the hot spring any time.
Nano da!
Oh, I feel relaxed.
Scrub scrub scrub...
Hey, you!
Why are you in the hot spring with your clothes on?!
What?! You're supposed to go into a hot spring naked?!
Of course!
You should do some fan service!
That's NG!
Hot Spring Boy...
Sis... Sis...
Hot Spring Boy?! Is that you, Hot Spring Boy?!
Are you alright?!
Yeah.
I just became the core, so I'm just a voice...
I'm glad...
Next time I come back to this solar system will be in several million years.
I wonder if I'll see you again.
Yes!
I'll be several million and 14 years old.
I'll be waiting!
I'll have to live long then!
Isn't that going beyond human ability?!
My... she's pretty relaxed.
That's a good story nano da.
Maybe it's good to be like that sometimes.
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!
When I wished upon a shooting star, I was able to be in the next episode too!
Um, who are you?
Um... my name is...!
Next Episode:
Now Appearing! Evil-Rune Angel Troupe?!
Stay tuned!
See you next time!
