Now then!
This time of year has come again.
Next Sunday will be our sports day!
Yeah!
It's finally here! Hell yeah!
You really love sports day, huh, Tatsuko-chan?
Yeah! This year I'm gonna get my new event included.
I'm fired up!
New event? What are you talking about?
Good ears, Nanaki!
Its name is...
Eel scooping.
I don't know what that is, but I do know it sure as hell isn't getting included.
What the heck Suzuka, don't crap on my idea.
This is the most exciting, slippery, arousing event-
Yes, yes, quiet down.
Scoop your eels at home.
That being said,
don't forget that the class period schedule will be different starting next week.
Miyu, it's sports day! Are you excited?
Sports... day?
I know what that is.
It's a school event where various competitions and athletic games are enjoyed.
I've never actually done one, though.
Oh, r-really?
Well, I guess that might be possible if you transferred around a lot.
Anyway, it's fun!
There's all kinds of events, and everyone brings lunch from home.
And at the end we all dance toge-
Oww!
I told you to be quiet.
Turn yourself around.
S-Sorry...
What was I talking about? Right, Illya just mentioned it, but about the dance:
It's the main event, with a huge reward,
and most of your practice time will be for dancing,
so be ready!
Okay!
Dancing...
But seriously, I think we've got it in the bag this year!
First off, we've got the Red Goat, yours truly.
Why red? Why a goat?
And on top of Illya, we have Miyukichi now.
The class victory is ours!
Illya and Miyu are both really athletic.
We'll be counting on you guys.
Is the class victory that important?
It's not like it's anything special,
but you always want to win if you can, right?
Just one of those things. Hey, Tatsu...
Huh?
What's up?
Shh.
I think they're arguing.
You understand, don't you, Fujimura-sensei?
Yes, but...
No buts!
It's not polite to eavesdrop!
Shut up, we can't hear.
Uh...
Fujimura-sensei, your...
...will belong to me. If you don't want that,
then you're just going to have to win the class championship at the sports day.
Ahh, I'm looking forward to having your meat all to myself, whenever I want...
It looks so delicious.
Oh my God!
Yeah, this is bad.
That was just, you know...
They meant it like that, didn't they?
I don't really understand, but it didn't seem like a very good conversation.
So, basically, unless we win at sports day...
Then Taiga will...
B-Become a meat slave!
"Meat slave"?
What? Is that not what they call it?
Then, let me put it this way:
Taiga will...
become a sex sla-
What sort of future did I hope for?
Even I didn't know I was wishing for it
If I run for it, afraid of my true self
I will lose my way in that endless dream
Wishing for things beyond your power is unnecessary
I want the courage to gently take someone's hand
The stars light the dark night of this changing world
And I fly into the sky under their guidance
I wished for a different life, and the constellations shifted
They are much like the promise we made that day
I believe
Days 'til
sports day
PE today is dance practice!!
Meet on the ground~
We now have a reason we have to win this.
Yes, indeed.
But I didn't expect this.
Nor did I.
I can't believe Miyu...
...is this awful at dancing!
Something is off.
I think I have the moves right.
Yeah, I'm impressed that you managed to learn the choreography so fast...
Okay, you're next, Illya! Show her how it's done!
What? I don't even know all the steps yet...
Well, I guess I can give it a shot.
That was amazing, Illya.
Not at all; I don't even know all the steps so I just kind of made it up...
I could tell the second half was mostly ad-lib, but besides that, it was somehow so different from mine.
Really?
Anyway, you just need to dance like Illya! Piece of cake!
Of course, you can feel free to mimic the dancing of I, Blue Jackson, as well!
It changed again. And now it's blue.
Damn you, you have nothing but completely useless skills!
We still have plenty of time, so don't worry about it, Miyu-chan.
Let's do it one more time. Are you good, Miyu?
Yes. I'll get it down perfectly this time.
I'm increasing my accuracy. From centimeter-scale to millimeter-scale!
This isn't going to work.
Hey, Miyu, maybe it's my imagination, but...
Yes, this is my first time dancing as well.
I memorized the steps perfectly, and am moving my body according to them...
Why doesn't it come out the same as everyone else's?
I really wonder.
Ah! Ruby, you were there?
Of course! I want screen time too. Let me talk.
Anyway, it's weird that you'd be so athletic and yet so bad at dancing.
Miyu, do you like dancing?
I don't know.
You're ambivalent. That might be why.
What do you mean?
Miyu-san still doesn't understand the fundamental meaning of dance. I think that's the reason.
You think so?
Dancing isn't necessary for life,
not like running fast or jumping high, so it's low priority for me.
So you don't understand why people dance in the first place?
I guess.
What do you think, Illya?
I don't know... I guess I just think dancing is fun.
Fun?
Don't think about it so hard.
You just started. I'm sure you'll be able to dance in no time!
See you tomorrow, Miyu.
See you tomorrow...
Days 'til
sports day
Days 'til

Days 'til
sports day
That's it for our last practice! You're all dismissed!
Yes ma'am!
We got this!
Miyukichi, you don't look so excited.
I'm still not very good...
It's true that you're still a little awkward, but I think you've gotten a lot better.
Yeah, Miyu, compared to a week ago, you're great.
R-Really?
All that's left is to try your best tomorrow.
Today we should all relax and get rested up.
It won't help if you're too tired to move tomorrow.
Let's call it a day, then?
It's finally tomorrow. I can't wait.
Don't forget about Taiga. We have to win.
Yeah, we have to give it our all in all the events, not just the dance.
That's right.
What's wrong, Miyu?
I just remembered I have to turn in a worksheet.
Go on without me.
Oh, okay.
See you tomorrow.
See you, Illya.
Y-Yeah... Bye-bye.
Miyu-sama, don't you think you're pushing yourself too hard?
Of course not.
It looks to me like you're exhausted.
Don't you think you should rest up for tomorrow?
I can't. I'm going to drag everyone down. Just a little more...
Miyu-sama, I have a suggestion...
Ah, I knew it! You're practicing by yourself! Come on, Miyu.
Illya? How?
I just knew. We're friends, after all.
Um... Are you mad?
I'm not mad. I just figured something like this was just like you. That's why I came back.
Oh, but you better give it a rest now!
Or then I'll get mad! I'll get as mad as Sella gets mad!
I wouldn't know, but that sounds scary.
Illya is right. You musn't push yourself any further.
We have no choice.
I will dance in your place.
If you watch that, you'll recover your MP in no time!
I have no idea what you're talking about, Nee-san.
But I'm still going to be dragging everyone else down.
I don't think that's true.
That's right! Let's do image training!
Image training?
Onii-chan told me that serious image training can give real results.
I'm gonna put on the song.
Are you still thinking about the meaning of dancing?
Yeah. Maybe I can't dance well because I still can't figure it out...
I don't think you need to think about it that hard, though.
Was dancing and practicing with everyone not fun?
No, that was fun! Honest.
Then I think all you need to do is express that.
Use that feeling to move your body.
If everyone can feel the fun you're having inside, then everyone watching will have fun, too.
I think that's the meaning of dance.
My feelings... inside?
Imagine it, Miyu. When we dance, you won't be alone.
We'll all be dancing together. Everyone will be with you.
Tatsuko, Mimi, Nanaki and Suzuka.
And I'll be there too.
Imagine it.
Imagine me next to you.
The two of us together.
It's going to be so much... fun...
So don't... worry...
Illya?
Oh, she fell asleep?
I guess Illya-san was tired from practice, too.
So Miyu-sama, do you feel like the image training helped?
Express the feelings inside of me with my body.
It's only a mental concept, but I think it'll help.
I think I understand a little now.
The question is whether or not I can really get my body to show those feelings.
If only there were a trick...
By the way, Miyu-sama, I've been meaning to say this.
What?
If the fatigue and aches are getting to be too much for you, you can use me.
Right... We can do that.
Excuse me...
Miyu-sama?
Sports day
is today!!
At any rate, make sure you don't hurt yourselves!
Additionally...
This is a personal request, but I'd like for you to win no matter what!
I wish I could talk about the circumstances!
Say no more, Taiga! You can leave it to us!
Right, everyone?!
Yeah!
What is this intensity?
I guess I don't have to worry, then!
Miyu, how are you feeling?
Thanks to you, I think the dance will be fine.
I feel like I didn't do very much, but,
if you feel that way, I'm glad.
Let's do our best!
Yeah.
We have to try hard in all the other events, too. For Taiga's sake.
Precisely! Let's do this, men!
Search and destroy! One shot, one kill! We'll be together in death!
No one is going to die!
You did it, Miyu!
Hell yeah, those are my students!
"Idiot"
Where am I supposed to get one of these?
Just run, Tatsuko!
Just run yourself across the finish line!
You can do it, Mimi!
Mimi, stop being sexy!!
I don't remember raising you to be like that!
You're not helping...
Hang in there, Suzuka!
This is nothing compared to the East Hall in the Summer!
The East Hall...?
Whatever that means, do your best!
Y-You really can tell she's serious!
She's just devouring the competition!
With that, the morning events are over.
The afternoon events will begin at one o'clock.
Illya-san! Miyu-san! Over here!
Sella! Liz!
We've been watching you. Good work out there.
You're really trying.
Let's have lunch, then?
You too, Miyu-san.
Excuse my imposition.
It's fine. The more, the merrier, anyway.
Onii-chan couldn't make it anyway, so make yourself at home.
By the way, is Luvia-san going to come?
Well...
A bento, you say?
Leave it to me.
I'll have to get a chef to prepare the greatest possible Manchu Han Imperial Feast!
I thought that would happen,
so I told her I'd take care of lunch myself.
I can imagine that.
Is she not going to come watch, though?
It's now time for the final event: the class-versus-class dance contest!
It's time!
There's not much of a point difference between the classes. We tried hard, though.
In the end, it's really going to come down to the dance.
Huh? Where's Miyu?
Oh! Your hairstyle is different!
Miyukichi's in serious mode now!
I like it!
Don't touch me.
Tatsuko! I'm sure she means it's dangerous to touch her right now; you'll break her concentration!
That's just how fired up she is!
Oh, okay!
I guess she's just that serious!
Miyu, that hair looks familiar to me. Am I imagining things?
Um, well it's true that it might be dangerous to touch me.
Basically, what you're thinking is exactly right.
Will the next class please assemble?
Illya, I'll be fine. Don't worry about me.
Let's do our best, Tatsuko-chan.
Yeah!
I know what I have to do.
I'm doing this because I have to.
Inside, I really do feel like I'm having fun.
I want to put that on display.
So...
Let's dance, Illya.
Together.
Yeah!
Who knew this would happen?
We're all so startled and lost
Maybe destiny itself is laughing
Was it random chance? Was it fated?
Let's think about that later
The wind sings a different song now
Maybe it's because you looked up into the sky
There's something waiting for me to go find it
Win the class title! Yeah!
How great it'd be to feel this way before any adventure
In the prism I hope to find
I can see a new light
I want to enjoy my days with you
And go deeper into that radiance
Free and without a care in the world
Let's run into it
Yay!
I'm impressed, Miyu.
That was certainly a dance befitting an Edelfelt.
We're going back, servant.
Who the hell are you calling "servant"?!
Yay!
We did it! That was awesome!
Miyu-chan, you were amazing too! You really rise to the occasion!
Yeah, it was perfect! So perfect, I thought I saw sparkles coming off of you.
Yeah, Illya felt that way, too.
R-Really? I'm sure it was your imagination.
We just danced that well! Probably!
A-Anyway, I'm glad I didn't ruin it for everyone else.
Don't say that! We're friends, aren't we?
I... I have to go to the bathroom.
Oh, me too!
I think I have to go too! Let's go together!
What?! Why are you running?! Wait!
You ain't getting away!
They're not here. Ah, I know what it was.
The two of them were about to wet themselves!
That explains it.
Good work, Miyu-sama.
You too, Sapphire. I made you do something unusual. Thanks.
So how was it to dance with the two of us turning you two into angels?
It was like...
It felt so natural.
My body was moving in perfect sync with my emotions.
That's why you had this idea, right?
Thanks to you, I managed to make a mental picture of how to dance, but I couldn't express it with my body.
I needed a way to directly impose that picture on my body.
We basically used magic to smooth out the transfer.
Turning feelings into reality is a basic principle of magic. It's what we're always doing.
I guess so, huh?
It kind of feels like cheating, though.
No, we did it to save a teacher! It's fine.
Everyone, congratulations!
Thanks to you... Thanks to you...
I'm gonna get all that meat!
What?
So like, I collected all the proofs-of-purchase off of school equipment, yeah?
I collected all the stamps and sent them into a contest.
High-quality...
Somehow, I won all this high-quality meat!
Meat?
All the other teachers got mad though, yeah?
So we decided the teacher of the winning class at the sports day would get it!
Then that was...
The meat you won will belong to me!
More like this...
I can't wait to eat your meat whenever I like.
I bet it's delicious.
It was literally... Meat?!
Everyone, meat party at Taiga's house today!
We've earned that right!
Yeah!
W-What?
Why does it work out like that?!
My meat!!
