You get what you get, no complaints, okay?
A red-tipped one means you're it.
Yippee! It's not me!
Not me, either!
Nor me.
Not me.
Or me either.
What? But that means...
Yaaay!
No...
This can't be!
Hoshimori.
Donning their celestial suits with the power of the Holy Tree,
they stand as humanity's only hope against the mysterious Irous invaders.
And this, this is the story of both their battles and their comradery.

Episode 8 Hoshimori Downtime
On a lovely day like this, nothing beats the resort.
I'm late!
Oh right, we've got three days of vacation.
So you finally woke up, huh?
Just because we don't have class doesn't mean you should simply sleep all day.
We finally get vacation time but here we are on duty anyway.
Not much we can do is there?
Someone has to be around, just in case any Irous show up.
Yeah, I know.
We all pulled straws, so just put that pouty face away.
We're about to eat breakfast, so hurry off and wash up.
Yeah, yeah...
Wait, you made all this?
Oh, it's not much really.
I'm so sorry!
If you'd just woke me up I would have helped!
O-oh, no it's...
Oh, I know. I'll make lunch instead!
N-no it's fine! I'll be cooking straight through vacation.
What? I could never make you do that!
Something's not right...
Huh? What's up, Haruka?
Everyone should be gone as of last night, right?
Well, I went out to water Kurumi's plants for her...
but someone had already gone out and done so...
Huh? But we should be the only ones here over the next three days.
Exactly. But still...
You think this might be some ghostly trickery?
What?!
C'mon, don't you know?
It's one of the seven school legends...
The tale of the ghost who wanders our halls...
You know, I have heard of it before.
Shinjugamine Girls’ School
They say if you cross paths at night it'll steal you away...
Oh, you've gotta be kidding!
You think ghosts would come out with all these Irous around?
Yeah, you're right!
No way! No way!
GAH!
If we're on vacation why do we have to study like this?!
You failed our last test though, didn't you Miki?
Math A Name: Miki Hoshitsuki Make-up Test Required
If you don't pass your make-up test, you might get stuck in school during the Holy Tree Festival.
What?!
No way!
If you want to avoid that, you need to study up.
Math
She's right.
We're here with you, so let's hurry and get this over with!
I bet everyone else is out there having so much fun...
S-Sadone...
I'm right here with you, so you have nothing to fear.
R-right...
Th-this little ride here, it's nothing in the face of the great Sendoin family name...
You'll see...
Yahoo!
Kaede? Are you okay?
O-of course I am. I can handle this...
Kaede! Sadone!
Let's ride that next!
Ride what?
Kaede!
Kaede! Oh, Kaede!
W-well, not bad, I guess.
Of course not 'cause I picked everything out!
Me though, I think I'd go with this.
Right? Looks good, right?
It's not bad, but...
How about this?
Enough already!
Sorry!
You were just so cute...
Oh, that's good. That's good!
These will round out my collection nicely!
Yay! I got so many presents!
Hey, aren't you feeling hungry yet?
True. Let's go get lunch somewhere.
Huh?
Lunch!
Sorry for the wait! Lunch!
Sorry for the wait!
Here's my specialty jumbo fried rice!
And for you my super jumbo fried rice!
That quick touch flowed right into a spike.
Keep your eyes on them, this could help us in battle.
O-okay!
So, uhm, Asuha? Can I ask you something?
What is it?
What's a "quick touch"?
Oh, well, if this were kendo, then...
Wow, that was quite a game!
I only came because I was given tickets,
but that was quite the experience.
I know Subaru would have loved this, but...
Yeah.
Subtotal Tax
If Miki was here with us she'd be beyond herself I'm sure.
This is so good!
I wish I could have brought Subaru along.
Why?
She always dresses so boyish,
but I'm just sure these sort of outfits would look great on her!
Oh my... Oh, yes!
Excuse me, miss...?
Kaede Sendoin (2nd Year JH)
Sadone (1st Year JH)
It's kinda weird being at an empty school.
Indeed.
It's like we're the only ones left in the world.
Hrmphh...
Hey, so why did you want to come out here anyway?
Actually, there's something I've wanted to do for a while now!
I must say, that was most pleasant.
I wish we could have brought Haruka and the others along with us, too.
Miki and Subaru probably would have dozed off, though.
YOKONA-I X 3 types of live bacteria leave you feeling better fast!! For headaches, nausea, and diziness brought on by motion sickness
Wow we rode on so much stuff, and it was so much fun!
Yeah!
Yes, oh yes...
But...
It would have been more fun if everyone was with us.
Yes, you are undoubtedly right.
I wonder what everyone is up to right about now?
Having lots of fun and enjoying their vacations, I bet.
Without a doubt.
Yakitori
Oh, how I've lived for this very moment!
Don't I know it!
But do ya really think izza good idea leavin' 'em at school alone?
Don't sweat it.
They can handle themselves.
We teachers are people too.
We gotta rest when we can, yeah?
Oh, don't you know it!
Now then...
Let's drink the night away, then!
Oh yeah!
Miki, wake up.
Come on, wake up.
What is it?
Breakfast already?
No, but...
What's wrong?
I just went to go get some water and...
When I walked by Asuha's room...
HS 3rd Year Team
There was this weird rumbling sound coming from inside.
Huh? But we're the only ones here, right?
Yeah, that's why it seemed so odd.
Do you think it could be...
A burglar?!
Why won't you turn on the lights?
Because if we did they'd know we're coming!
Before they even realize what's going on I'm gonna pan 'em one with this sock...
H-here goes...
O-okay...
Wait!
Do you think it's really a burglar in there?
If not, then who is it?
Maybe it might be... a ghost?
Huh?
Like we talked about this morning!
The ghost from the seven school legends!
Wh-what are you trying to say?
Th-that's all nonsense!
Y-yeah! Ghosts don't exist...
Let's just leave it be!
We can't!
Why not?
I-if we don't at least check we're going to be sitting around all night worrying about ghosts.
True. We're better off finding out now than never knowing the truth.
It's a 50/50 chance we find either a burglar or a ghost, after all.
Okay then. Here goes.
W-wait!
Burglar! Prepare yourself!
Huh?
What? So you all thought I was some thief?
Well, we were also half convinced you were a ghost...
That's even worse...
I'm really sorry...
But Anko, you said you were going on a trip for vacation.
I did!
Using this!
Huh?
So you've been cooped up in here this whole time?
Yup! I was enjoying a nice virtual vacation.
Wow! We never even realized you were in here today!
You're really a next-level hermit...
Pretty much.
So, were you the one who watered the flowers this morning?
Huh? What are you talking about?
I didn't water any flowers.
Huh...?
Oh...
So it was you all along, Misaki.
You've been watering the flowers.
Y-yeah.
I promised Kurumi I would.
Who would have thought anyone but me would have hung around.
But we didn't even catch a glimpse of you the whole time.
Where were you?
I was training.
It was good practice for a sneaking mission.
How so?
She was snooping around.
Oh...
You mean, you were hiding and sneaking around the whole dorm?
You weren't spying on us, were you?
Huh?
Not just that, but maybe she was up to something naughty!
Something naughty?
Stop kidding yourselves!
I didn’t really...
Do anything...
Okay, cut!
What? They're calling off filming today?
The director said they don't like the shape of that mountain so they want to find another location...
I'm sorry for the trouble, but we'll contact your studio once we've got a schedule worked out again.
Well imagine that.
After we had them switch up their schedule so much already.
Looks like we have a day to ourselves, what should we do?
Now now, do you even have to ask?
Huh?
No! Wait!
No can do. Three strikes and you're out.
Gah! I can't take this!
If I study any more, numbers are just gonna start pouring out of my ears!
Let's stop here for today, then.
Must be nice to be a teacher.
Huh?
They just put all the studying on us. Must be a piece of cake for them.
That's not true.
While I was sneaking around I spotted our teacher a number of times.
He was working straight through the vacation.
He seemed especially focused on putting together a curriculum that could balance out with our training.
I guess he's thinking about us in ways we normally can't see, huh.
I'm sure he is.
I'm gonna thank him!
Huh?
I'll bake him a nice thank you cake!
WHAT?!
Oh, what a great idea!
Hey, wait...
In that case, let me help.
Hmm?
Misaki have you ever baked before?
Nope.
But I've heard that cooking is more about heart than skill.
So I think I could still pull something off.
Okay then. Me and Subaru will be your taste testers.
Nooooo!
Hmm. I guess that should do it.
Huh?
An emergency mail from Tsubuzaki?!
What is it? What's-
...wrong?
Why...?
How could this happen?
Sir...!
Huh?
Oh...
So you were baking a cake for me?
But it all went wrong...
What gives?
What's with the long faces?
Kanon! And Shiho too!
Our shoot got cancelled so we came by to see everyone.
And it looks like we timed it just right, huh?
Hmm?
But why? You shouldn't be back until tomorrow.
We were just a bit worried about you all.
It's more fun when we're all together anyway!
Sounds like we all felt the same way.
Welcome back everyone!
Well, I didn't get a cake, but...
Mimi! Where did you go?
C'mon you. Come and join us. Mimi! Where did you go?
C'mon you. Come and join us. I went out shopping with Nozomi and Urara!
Wha? No, I... I went out shopping with Nozomi and Urara!
Oh, come on. I went out shopping with Nozomi and Urara!
Aww, I'm so jealous!
But still...
Well, what did you get?
Well, I got this nice...
