Send Your Cute Hina on a Journey/Transcript

Hina Logi: From Luck & Logic Episode 1: Send Your Cute Hina on a Journey
[''The Bandai Visual and 2017 Funimation logo appear. The scene opens to a garden field. The card reads "Septpia" and fades away. As the Japanese credits appear, the radio is turned on and music is playing, and a girl is riding a truck in the back, there is a blonde girl lying down in the stack of hay with a blue chihuahua pet and a large sized backpack.'']

Chloe: Good morning, everyone! Chloe Maxwell here. (SUB: Morning, everyone! Chloe here.)

Yukari: Thanks for tuning in. I'm Yukari Nanahoshi. And we here at the PR department of ALCA are bringing you the latest Foreigner news. (SUB: Good morning. This is Yukari Nanahoshi. We here at the PR department of ALCA will bring you the newest Foreigner news.)

Chloe: Hey, Yukari, the weather is so great this morning. Doesn't it make you wanna get out there and run? (SUB: Hey, Yukarin, the weather is so great this morning. Doesn't it wanna make you want to run?)

Yukari: [laughs] I know what you mean. I'm wanna to do laundry just so I can dry my clothes outside. So if you have anything that needs cleaning, please bring it by my room. (SUB: I know what you mean. I'm filled with a desire to do laundry myself! Chloe-senpai, if you've got anything that needs cleaning, put it out for me, okay?)

Chloe: Awesome! Now it's time to get down to business. Let's kick this program off all the recent Foreigner news. You've got that covered, don't ya? (SUB: Thank you! Then how about we get started? Well, first off, let's hear some Foreigner news. I'll leave it to you!)

Yukari: Right. Today, there have been zero Logicalist events reported. Furthermore, there's been no news regarding Foreigner appearances anywhere in Septpia. (SUB: Right. Today there were zero Logicalist stories. Furthermore, there's been no news on recent appearances of any Foreigners we need to look out for.

Chloe: Nothing interesting, huh?

Yukari: I'd say this peace and quiet's been a great thing! (SUB: But it's so peaceful. I'd say that's a good thing!)

Chloe: Oh, you're right. I've been having fun in my spare time. And besides, there's all kinds of jobs you can do with Logicalist powers that don't involve fighting Foreigners. And, since there haven't been any emergency missions to deal with, we've all had lots of time to go out and play with our friends! (SUB: You're right. It's been fun in its own way. And lately, there's all kinds of jobs you can do with Logicalist powers. What's more, since there haven't been any emergency missions, we've got lots of time to play with our friends!)

Yukari: Now that's what I call good news! (SUB: Nothing but good news!)

Chloe: Yeah, but still, I feel like I'm...(SUB: But still, I feel like I'm losing my edge if I can't go out and fight with all my strength.)

Country Girl: Huh? Okay, young lady! You better wake up, 'cause we're almost at your stop! (SUB: Miss! Miss! We're almost there!)

[''The blonde girl awakens and rushes to see her stop. The scene then shows a big mountain-like hill. The blonde girl gasps and shouts cheerfully. The title reads "Hina Logi: From Luck & Logic". The scene then shows a large, expanded, middle school-like academy. And people are seen chatting. The next scene shows them walking in an open gate. It pans at the gazebo. They gray-haired girl, Nina Alexandrovna, is seen reading a book. It cuts to the mountain-like hill the blonde girl saw. Cut back to Nina reading her book. The sun shines brightly on her page. Nina gasps soflty and looks at the sun. Cuts to the sun, almost covered by the trees, and to Nina's face.'']

Female Students: [offscreen] Good morning, Yayoi! (SUB: Good morning.)

[The orange-haired one, Yayoi Tachibana, is seen walking by, along with twins with dark teal hair, Karin and Karen Kiritani.]

Yayoi: It is a good morning, isn't it? (SUB: A very good morning to you.)

Karin: Mistress, I have news for you. (SUB: Mistress, I have a report for you.)

Yayoi: So, what's going on, Karin? (SUB: What's the matter, Karin?)

Karin: Are you aware that there's a new student transferring into our class this week? (SUB: Are you unaware of the new student transferring late into our class?)

Yayoi: Yes. I've also heard that she's a princess from a certain country. I'm really looking forward meeting her. (SUB: I am. I've also heard she's a princess from a certain country. I'm looking forward to meeting her.)

[Cut to Karin's eye.]

Karin: My sources say that she'll be arriving shortly. (SUB: She should be here shortly.)

Yayoi: Oh. It's nice to see you're so well-informed. (SUB: I see that you're well informed.)

Karin: I consider it my duty to research things you may be interested in, Mistress. (SUB: Because I research anything you might be interested in, Mistress!)

Karen: My sister makes me so proud! (SUB: That's my sister for you!)

Yayoi: A real princess. I'm sure she's the perfect example of someone filled with grace and dignity. As a member of the respected Tachibana household, and our class representative, I'd better do my best to greet her properly. (SUB: A princess. I'm sure she's someone filled with grace and dignity. As a member of the Tachibana household, and class representative, I had better do my best to greet her properly.)

[A red-haired girl, Mahiro Kyobashi, runs by with a tracker.]

Mahiro: It's here! It's here! It's here! Check out this high paradox level! With readings like this, a Foreigner's gotta be close by! (SUB: It's here! It's here! It's here! It's here! What a high paradox level! A Foreigner's gotta be close by!)

[Mahiro continues looking around, and Yayoi and Karin's faces unamused, except for Karen, who has a nervous smile.]

Mahiro: It's over this way! (SUB: Over there!)

[Mahiro runs to the garden.]

Yayoi: Huh? Get back here right now or you're gonna be late for class! After her, Karin, Karen! (SUB: Huh? Stop right there! What about school?! After her, Karin, Karen!)

Karin: But, Mistress, you don't have time to chase her! (SUB: Mistress, just leave her be.)

Yayoi: I just can't stand by and let a classmate be tardy! (SUB: I just can't let someone be late!)

Karen: I'm right behind you! (SUB: I'm coming, too!)

Karin: My goodness, you're just to soft hearted. Wait up! (SUB: Goodness, you're just so soft-hearted!)

[''Cut back to Nina at the gazebo. She puts her book inside her purse and approaches to the backpack. The blue chihuahua squeezes out of the backpack and squeaks. Pan to Nina's face.'']

Nina: Fluffy... (SUB: Fluffy?)

[The blue chihuahua squeaks to tell Nina something.]

Nina: Is something under there? (SUB: Is something there?)

[''The blue chihuahua nods. Nina picks up the backpack, only to see the blonde girl has collapsed. Nina gets shocked and moves away quickly, dropping the backpack.'']

Nina: It's...a girl? (SUB: That was a person, wasn't it?)

[''The blonde girl weakly gets up and sees Nina. She gasps softly.'']

Blonde Girl: Wow! It's Nina! (SUB: It's Nina-chan!)

[Nina gasps.}

Blonde Girl: It's so nice to meet you! (SUB: I'm...)

[''The blonde girl's stomach growls loudly, causing her to collapse in hunger, and the backpack slips on her head. The blue chihuahua approaches to her.'']

Nina: Who are you?

[At the school, the blonde girl is eating a hot dog and the blue chihuahua is drinking milk.]

Nina: Was that enough food? (SUB: Is that enough food?)

Blonde Girl: Yup! Thank you! It was super delicious! (SUB: Oh, yup! It was super delicious!)

Nina: Can you tell me your name now? (SUB: What's your name?)

Blonde Girl: Lion! [The blue chihuahua jumps at her] And this is Belle. [Belle squeaks.] (SUB: Lion! And she's Belle.)

Nina: You must be Liones Yelistratova. (SUB: So, you're Liones Yelistratova, I take it.)

Lion: Whoa, amazing! How did you know? (SUB: Amazing! How did you know?)

Nina: Because my teacher told me you were coming. She wanted me to escort you to the Staff Room as soon as you got to school, but you...(SUB: Because me teacher told me so. She asked me to take you to the staff room. But...)

[''Scene pans up to Lion and Belle, who don't understand what Nina means. Nina groans shortly. Lion and Belle try to know about her and the question marks appear on their headd. At the bathroom, Lion is in the shower and washing her hair. She giggles. Belle is washing herself as well. Lion scrubs Belle's head as she giggles. Nina turns on the shower sprinkler on Lion's hair. Lion plays in the water by her feet, and Nina dries Lion's hair. Belle's tail starts to get all puffy and looks at Nina. Nina sees Belle as her eyes gave stars on it.'']

Nina: So fluffy...

[''Belle is in a pink bubble and questions about Nina's fluffy interest as a question mark is on her head. The next scene shows Lion putting her school uniform on.'']

Lion: There we go. [giggles] Thank you so much. (SUB: There we go... Thanks.)

Nina: I'm only doing this because my teacher told me to. (SUB: I only did it because my teacher told me to.)

[''The next scene shows the school. It pans down at Nina walking while Lion and Belle follow her. Next, it shows Nina walking on the bridge as Lion and Belle continue to follow her.'']

Nina: We need to hurry. (SUB: Let's go.)

Lion: Please, wait for me! [panting] (SUB: Wait!)

[''The scene pans to Nina walking in Pirari Academy. Lion gasps as she sees it. She and Belle see the blue-haired girl who is Principal in the canoe playing the harp. Cut back in the Academy.'']

Rino: Welcome to Pirari Academy. This unique school provides training for Logicalists and is managed by the Special Police Bureau ALCA. (SUB: Welcome to Pirari Academy. This academy is a training school for Logicalists, managed by the Special Police Bureau ALCA.)

Lion: Okay, got it! (SUB: G-got it!)

Rino: My name is Rino Fujisaki. I'm the assistant homeroom teacher for your class. How are you? (SUB: My name's Rino Fujisaki. I'm the assistant homeroom teacher for your class. Happy to meet you.)

Lion: I'm super excited to finally be here, it's a dream come true! (SUB: I'm Lion! Please to meet you.)

Rino: you get a gold star for such an energetic answer. [Hands out a card.] Enthusiasm is a great trait for a Logicalist. I hope you focus it towards using your power properly. (SUB: What an energetic answer. You get a gold star. As someone who has the makings of a Logicalist, I hope you'll show the same enthusiasm towards using your power properly.)

[Lion takes the card and looks at it.]

Lion: What's this?

Rino: It's called a Foreigner Card. ALCA implemented this new training system last year. After Tritomy gave us this technology. (SUB: It's called a Foreigner Card. Last year, ALCA adopted this new system after Tritomy gave us the technology.)

[''A sweat drop appears on Nina and Lion's heads. Their faces become annoyed and unamused.'']

Lion: Oh, I get it now. (SUB: I understand.)

Nina: [thinking] I'm positive she doesn't get it. (SUB: I'm certain she doesn't at all.)

Rino: Don't worry, I'll explain everything about it in class later. Just take good care of it until then. (SUB: I'm going to explain it in class later, so just take special care of it until then.)

Lion: Will do! (SUB: Got it!)

Rino: Great. Then we should head out. You're in the same class as Nina here. The 1-S class. (SUB: Then shall we go? You're in the same class as Nina, S class.)

Lion: Yay! [giggles]

[''In class, Lion is standing in front of the class, along with Rino and Ms. Kagura. Lion begins to shake due to being nervous about introducing herself. She whimpers softly. Pan to the class. Yayoi sternly stares at Lion, Mahiro is busy with her tracker, and everyone continues to stare at Lion. Lion struggles to speak and starts shaking again.'']

Lion: I-I-I-I-I-I I go by Lion, [Her face turns red and her eyes swirl] but you can call me Liones Yelistratova is you'd like. (SUB: I-I-I-I-I'm Lion! Please call me Liones Yelistratova.)

Mahiro: Okay, too hard. (SUB: Way too hard.)

Ms. Kagura: I'm Ms. Kagura, and I'm your homeroom teacher. If you have any questions, please ask Ms. Fujisaki. (SUB: I'm your homeroom teacher, Kagura. If you have any questions, ask Miss Fujisaki.)

Lion: [nervously] Oh, I will, Ma'am. Thank you. (SUB: Got it!)

[''Lion and Rino giggle. Belle pops out of Lion'a shoulder.'']

Student #1: Cutie! (SUB: That's so cute!)

Student #2: I don't have pests registered to the cards yet. (SUB: I wonder if she's registered on the cards.)

[Mahiro's tracker beeps and the light flashes green.]

Mahiro: That can't seriously be...[An upside down pyramid appears] Whoa! It's the exact same reaction I picked up outside this morning! (SUB: Don't tell me, she's... Woah! It's the same reaction that I got this morning!)

Ms. Kagura: Yayoi.

Yayoi: Do you need something, Ms. Kagura? (SUB: Yes, Ms. Kagura.)

Ms. Kagura: Can you show her around school after class? (SUB: Can you introduce her to the school afterwards?)

Yayoi: Yes, it would be my pleasure. Please allow me to introduce myself as the class representative. Yayoi Tachibana, and on behalf of Class 1-S, I'm happy to offer you a warm welcome, Lion. (SUB: But if course. I am the class representative, Yayoi Tachibana. On behalf of Class 1-S, I'm happy to offer you a warm welcome, Lion-san.)

Lion: Hi, it's very nice to meet you! (SUB: P-P-Pleased to meet-)

[''Lion slams her head on the desk and Yayoi sweats. The students start laughing.'']

Karin: It seems like she's quite smear-headed, doesn't she? Or maybe a princess for the masses? (SUB: She seems like quite the airhead. Or maybe a princess for the masses?)

Yayoi: You mustn't say such rude things about royalty. Though, I have to admit, she doesn't quite match the image of the dignified princess that I'd imagined. (SUB: You mustn't say such rude things. Well, it is true that she doesn't quite match the image of a princess I had in mind.)

Karen: What? But she's such a little cutie pie! (SUB: What? But she's so cute.)

Karin: The two of you may have a lot in common. (SUB: So she's on the same wavelength as Karen-chan...)

Karen: Do you really think I'm all cute? Sweet! (SUB: You think I'm cute? Gosh!)

Yayoi: I'm pretty sure that's not what she was implying with that comment. (SUB: I don't believe that's what she was implying.)

[''Nina groans and Lion laughs nervously. Scene transitions to Lion sitting next to Nina. Lion sighs.'']

Ms. Kagura: Looks like we have a little bit of time before lunch. And since we have a new student today, how about we all do a quick simple review? Yayoi, tell us what a Logicalist is. (SUB: Looks like we have some time before lunch break. We've also got a new student. How about we do a simple review? Yayoi, can you tell us what a Logicalist is?)

Yayoi: Yes. That's an easy one. Logicalists are people who make a covenant with Foreigners from other worlds. And entering a trance with one of those Foreigners, they gain a number of different powers. (SUB: Yes. Logicalists are those who make a contract with Foreigners from other worlds. By entering a trance with the Foreigner they contracted with, they gain a number of different powers.)

Ms. Kagura: Right. What's that purpose? (SUB: And what's their purpose?)

Nina: To protect Septpia from any evil Foreigners that come here wishing to do harm to his world. (SUB: To protect Septpia, that is, this world from evil Foreigners.)

Lion: Yep, yep! (SUB: Yup!)

Ms. Kagura: If I'd asked that a year ago, yes. But now that we've cleaned up the Archdemon invasion, everything has become much more peaceful. For the time being our world faces no threats that compel us to fight anymore. So, in that sense, you trainees, are nothing but a bother to us. (SUB: One year ago, you'd be correct. But now that we've cleaned up the Archdemon invasion, everything's become much more peaceful. At the very least, for time being, there's nothing compelling us to fight anymore. In that sense, you're all a bother to us now.)

Nina: How are we a bother? (SUB: How so?)

Ms. Kagura: Well, you've all got 6 years until graduation. Use that time to think about it. (SUB: Well, you've got six years until graduation. Take that time to think about it.)

Lion: 'K! I'll start right now! (SUB: All right! I'll do my best!)

[''The students laugh. Meanwhile, Mahiro is still working on her tracker. The tracker starts to electrocute and explodes.'']

Mahiro: Crap! [whimpers]

[Rino and Ms. Kagura gasp, and Nina gets under her desk.]

Yayoi: Come on, Mahiro! (SUB: Mahiro-san! Not again!)

[''Karin and Karen hide under the desks. Mahiro's eyes turn rectangular.'']

Karen: This again?!

Mahiro: Whoops.

[''The tracker electrocutes and explodes again, the students scream, and the smoke covers the screen and fades to black. The eyecatch scene shows Mahiro, Yayoi, Lion, and Rino's hairs all poofy while Belle spins around. The next scene shows the academy, and the garden center. At lunch the students are seen chattering. It cuts to the bridge and shows Nina eating her lunch while reading her book. Yayoi, Karin, and Karen break the 4th wall.'']

Karin: Huh? This is your first time going to school? (SUB: So, this is your first time going to school?)

Lion: Yeah, it is. My country is really small and I was the only child at the castle, so there wasn't a school for me to go to. That's why I was so nervous talking in front of the entire class. (SUB: It is! My country is really small, and I was the only child at the castle. So that's why I was so nervous back there.)

[''Half of her face turns blue and covers her mouth. Mahiro's eyes have turned into dots, Karin and Karen's eyes are closed, and Yayoi sweats. Thr four students moan at Lion. Yayoi takes a napkin and wipes her mouth.'']

Yayoi: Well, then, how'd you study? (SUB: So, how did you study?)

Lion: My mom took it upon herself to teach me lots of stuff. But, I don't think studying is really my thing. (SUB: My mom did teach me some things, but... I don't think studying is my thing.)

[Mahiro gasps softly and Belle goes right to Lion's shoulder.]

Lion: Is something the matter, Belle? (SUB: Belle, what's the matter?)

Mahiro: So you call this thing "Belle"? Do you know what world she came from? Perhaps it was Monolium? Or maybe Tetra-Heaven? No, I think her fur looks to different to be from there. (SUB: Her name's Belle? What world did she came from? Monolium? Tetra-Heaven? No, her fur's kinda too different for that.)

[Belle hides beneath Lion's neck.]

Yayoi: Mahiro, please leave her alone! That poor thing clearly doesn't like it! (SUB: Stop that at once, Mahiro-san! She doesn't seem to like it!)

Mahiro: Hmm, even though Belle isn't able to speak our language it seems as though she can't understand what we're saying. (SUB: Hmm, she can't speak our language, but she does seem to understand what we're saying.)

Lion: [Rubs Belle's chin] To be honest, I don't know very much about her, either. But, she's been a member of our family ever since I was a little baby. (SUB: I don't really understand much about Belle, either. But she's been with me ever since I was a baby.)

Mahiro: Wait. So, you haven't made a covenant with her? (SUB: Huh? You haven't made a contract with her?)

Yayoi: There's no way Lion should be in Class S if she hasn't done that yet! (SUB: How could that be? Lion-san is in class S!)

Lion: What are you talking about? (SUB: C-Contract?)

Yayoi: The only students allowed to enter our class are the ones who have already made a covenant with a Foreigner. (SUB: The only students that can enter class S are those who have already made a covenant with Foreigners.)

Lion: But what happens if I don't have one? (SUB: So having no contract is a bad thing?)

Mahiro: More than likely, the teachers will send you to another class. (SUB: If you haven't, you'll have to go to another class.)

Lion: Oh, no. But, I was so happy they put me in the same class as Nina. (SUB: No! I was so happy to be in the same class as Nina-chan!)

Mahiro: It's all good, I'm sure everything will work out just fine. (SUB: It's all good! It'll work out somehow.)

Lion: You really think so? (SUB: Really?)

Yayoi: It's irresponsible to get her hopes up like that. We need to talk to our teachers about this first. (SUB: You mustn't say something so irresponsible! We have to check our teachers first.)

Lion: Oh. (SUB: Oh...)

Mahiro: Uh, well, do you at least have a Foreigner Card? (SUB: Hmm. Well, do you have a Foreigner Card?)

Lion: I do have one! [Holds up card] This thing, right? (SUB: Oh, I do! This, right?)

Mahiro: [offscreen] Yeah, but, I've never seen a completely blank one. (SUB: Oh, it's blank.)

Lion: So, everybody else's card looks different from mine? (SUB: Is this also different from everybody else's?)

Yayoi: Yes, but it's only your first day and it just shows that you haven't formed a covenant with a Foreigner yet. There's no need to worry about it. Everything will work itself out. Maybe. (SUB: Well, it's still the first day. It means you haven't formed a contract yet. You needn't worry. It'll be alright. Probably...)

[Lion moans as her eyes turn into black straight lines.]

Mahiro: I know how to speed this process up! We need to analyze Belle! (SUB: Guess you'll just have to take the option of the last resort! How about we analyze Belle?!)

[''Belle bolts in Karen's scarf and runs inside her clothes. Karen starts sobbing.'']

Karen: Please! [continues sobbing]

Yayoi: Mahiro, stop this nonsense immediately! You know you're not supposed to figure out yourself this all by yourself! (SUB: Now, Mahiro-san! Stop that this instant! It's not something we can simply look into ourselves!)

Mahiro: Oh, come on, now. If only we can dig this a little further! (SUB: No, no. We might jusy be able to figure something out!)

[''Mahiro grabs Karen's breasts, causing Belle to jump out of Karen. Mahiro and Karen fall off. Belle jumps on Lion.'']

Lion: Oh, Belle! (SUB: Belle!)

Mahiro: Just let me look at the tip of the tail first, all right?! (SUB: Just let me look at the tip of its tail for a bit!)

Yayoi: [jumps on Mahiro] No way, Mahiro! (SUB: Mahiro-san! I said cut that out!)

Karin: [holds a dizzy-eyed Karen] It's okay. You're gonna be fine. (SUB: Karen-chan!)

Mahiro: (SUB: J-Just a little bit!)

Lion: Gosh, WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?! (SUB: Gosh! WHAT SHOULD I DO?!)

[''The Foreigner Card begins to glow and surrounds sparkles on Lion. The ground forms into a star and it surrounds yellow magic streams on Lion and Belle.'']

Yayoi: What's happening to her? (SUB: What's happening?)

Mahiro: Her gate's opening! (SUB: Her gate opened!)

[A beam of green and teal lights appear and prickly vines appear as well.]

Voice: Tell me why you're crying, Lion. I'd never thought we'd see each other again. My heart is filled with joy! (SUB: Why are you crying, Lion? To think that we should meet again. I am overjoyed!)

[Lion is surrounded by the vines and is now in her Tranceunion form.]

Yayoi: [offscreen] Whoa, she did it! Look, Lion can trance after all! (SUB: She did it! Look, Lion can trance!)

Lion: [chuckles] It's hard to describe how happy this makes me feel. Amazing! Don't you think so? Now, I get to be in the same class as Nina and the rest of you! (SUB: I am overjoyed. Wow! Look, look! Now I can be with Nina-chan and everyone else!)

[Lion fires a beam with her wand to make the roses bloom.]

Yayoi: Hold on. This isn't good! (SUB: But... Isn't she...)

[Vines start to grow all over the place and the citizens scream.]

Yayoi: Lion's going berserk right now! (SUB: ...going berserk right now?)

Lion: [giggling]

Mahiro: It's probably a Monolium Foreigner which she has the power to manipulate vegetation which means she'll be a short-range to mid-range type in battle! (SUB: It's probably a Monolium Foreigner. She has the power to manipulate vegetation. So she'll be short-range to mid-range type in battle!)

[''The scene zooms back up to the bridge. It shows Nina seeing the vines that Lion created through the plaza.'']

Nina: This is out of hand. (SUB: What are you doing?)

[''In the transformation scene, Foreigner Cards surround Nina while the Foreigner Card glows in the middle. She grabs it and the magic bubble explodes.'']

Nina: Gate Access. Tetra-Heaven!

[''A star forms a Tetra-Heaven neutron symbol and it fades to a blonde haired girl, who is Amora, holding hands with Nina and put their heads together. Then, it shows the opposite of the skies.'']

Nina: Let's go, Amora. (SUB: Let's go, Amor.)

Amora: I'm ready, Nina! (SUB: Right, Nina-chan!)

[''Nina grabs Amora's hand and a glowing circle appears and explodes. Nina opens her eyes and her clothes disappear. She and Amora hug and her hair scrunchies and teal halo heart appear. She continues hugging and her angel dress appears as she soars through the sky. She forms her boots, gloves, a choker, and the back of her dress. Feather transitions twice to Nina as she does a pose. After the transformation is finished, Lion continues to make the vines grow even stronger. She giggles.'']

Lion: Look at them fly! Don't you girls wanna come over and play with me? (SUB: Come, everyone! Play with me!)

[Belle pats her in the cheek.]

Mahiro: Hey, Lion! Do you have any super moves you can show me? (SUB: Lion! Do you have any super moves?)

Lion: Super moves, huh? (SUB: Super moves? Let's see...)

Yayoi: Don't listen to her! This isn't the time for a place to try all your powers! (SUB: You mustn't, Lion-san! This isn't the place to be using your power!)

[''The vine tangles around Yayoi, Mahiro, Karin, and Karen. They exclaim. The vine brings them upwards.'']

Lion: [giggles]

[''Suddenly, a flash of light appears on the sky and Nina's arrow lands and cuts the vine in half, setting the other four girls free. Nina lands and approaches to Lion.'']

Lion: Amazing! (SUB: How lovely!)

[The vines are about to attack Nina.]

Nina: Don't tell me...the trance-jack. No, I don't think that could happen. (SUB: Don't tell me... a trance-jack? No. That's not how it looks.)

Lion: Oh, a game!

Nina: But...

[Lion jumps in front of Nina.]

Nina: What are you doing? (SUB: Liones-san.)

Lion: How fun! I'm so glad you came to play with me! (SUB: Come play with me!)

Nina: Thank you, then. (SUB: What?)

Lion: I'm such a fan! (SUB: Nina-chan!)

[Nina karate chops Lion in the head.]

Nina: Calm down right now! (SUB: Calm down!)

[''Lion collapses as the beam of light flashes on the screen. The screen then shows Lion, now collapsed to the ground, opening her eyes.'']

Lion; Wait, where am I? It looks like the castle, but it's not. (SUB: Where am I? It's a bit different from the castle.)

[''Lion gets up, only to see that she is in a garden-like island. An Auburn haired girl, who is Rosa, appears.'']

Rosa: Hello. It's been 10 years. (SUB: It's been ten years, hasn't it?)

Lion: What? 10 years? Sorry, do I know you? (SUB: Who might you be?)

[The scene fades to Lion, who is back in her school uniform, and wakes up only to see that Nina is holding her.]

Nina: What happened to you? (SUB: What's happened to you?)

Lion: I think I just tranced the very first time! Yipee! Now, we get to be in the same class together! [giggling] (SUB: I tranced just now, didn't I?! Yay! Now we can be in the same class!)

Nina: Well, the good news is it looks like you've gone back to normal...or not. (SUB: For now, it looks as though you've gone back to normal.)

[''Rino and Ms. Kagura rush to see what Lion had done. The scene pans up to the sky where Nina is still holding Lion and Lion is still giggling. Rino makes an angry expression while she growls. The scene cuts to the eyecatch.'']

Rino: YOU GUYS!!!

[''The scene transitions to the office. Principal is playing the harp and the Vice Principal, Kozue Amahara, appears.'']

Kozue: I'd never thought she'd be capable of trancing with a blank Foreigner Card. She was behaving quite dangerously as well. I need to file a complaint with the head office. (SUB: I never thought she'd be capable of trancing with a blank card... She was behaving quite dangerously, too. I shall put in objection at the ALCA head office at once.)

Principal: [sighs]

Kozue: I know this system has only been an effect for a short time, but as long as we're using it, I'll do my best to see it doesn't happen again. (SUB: I realize that this new system has only been in effect for half a year, but as long as the students are using it, I will do my utmost to ensure this sort of problem does not come up again.)

Principal: Kozue, you're so devoted.

Kozue: It's my responsibility as an educator to prevent accidents. (SUB: Preventing accidents before they happen is responsibility of any educator.)

Principal: I believe the commotion was limited, correct? (SUB: The commotion was limited.)

Kozue: Those children are bound by a deep bond that a few can understand. There's no need for greater action. (SUB: Those children are bound by a very deep bond. That's all there is to it.)

[The scene pans down to Nina and Lion walking home from school.]

Lion: I'm so happy! I get to sleep in the same dorm as you! [giggles] (SUB: I'm so happy! I'm in the same dorm as Nina-chan!)

[Nina sighs and stops walking for a moment.]

Lion: Huh? Is everything okay, Nina? (SUB: What's the matter, Nina-chan?)

Nina: It's pretty obvious you already knew who I was before you arrived at school. (SUB: You knew my name from the very beginning, didn't you?)

Lion: Mm! Yeah, I saw you on TV. But, I'd never thought I'd actually get to meet you in real life! It's like a dream come true! (SUB: Yup! I saw you on TV! But I never thought I'd get to meet you here.)

Nina: Is that so? (SUB: That's...)

Lion: The truth is, I've always kind of looked up to you as a role model! (SUB: I've always admired you.)

[''Flashback shows a young Lion who is in her room watching TV. She gasps softly and jumps into action and does fighting moves.'']

Lion: And then I want most in this world to be just like you and have the strength to fight off evil while protecting people! I also thought, if I ever got the chance to be friends with someone, it'd be someone like you. I really always felt that way, Nina. (SUB: I want to be just like you. I want to be able to do my best for others. And I also thought... If I could one day make friends with someone, I hoped it would be someone like you, Nina-chan. I've always felt that way.)

Nina: I'm sorry.

Lion: Huh?

Nina: Here's the thing, I seriously don't plan on staying at this school for very much longer. (SUB: The truth is, I don't plan to stay in this school for long.)

Lion: Why not?

Nina: My superiors ordered me to come here. But, I don't want to return to ALCA as soon as possible. As you know, I'm already a Logicalist. (SUB: I only come here on orders from my superiors. If I had my way, I'd return to ALCA as soon as possible. I'm already a Logicalist.)

Lion: Oh, I guess that makes sense. (SUB: I see.)

Nina: You see, even if we're to become... (SUB: So, even if we become friends-)

Lion: Everything will work out. That's right. You'll go back! I believe in you, Nina! I have to admit, though, that the thought of us parting ways so soon makes me really sad and depressed. But, hey! It won't be too long before I'm a real Logicalist just like you! (SUB: I'm sure you'll get to go back! Yup! You'll go back! It'll be fine! I'm cheering for you! I am sad that we might have to part ways so soon... But... I'll be right on your tail!)

[Nina notices her thoughts about what Lion said and walks away.]

Lion: Huh? What's wrong? (SUB: What?)

Nina: It's nothing. Come on, Liones. Let's go home. (SUB: Nothing. Let's go home, Liones-san.)

Lion: Okay. (SUB: Sure.)

[Belle squeaks as a sigh.]

Lion: Nina, one more thing. Mmm... (SUB: Hey, Nina-chan.)

Nina: What is it? (SUB: What?)

Lion: [chuckles] It's silly. If you don't mind, could you call me Lion? Would that be okay? [giggles] Ah... (SUB: Um... I'd rather... ...you can call me Lion.)

[''Nina turns away from Lion. She notices how happy Lion is that she could call her "Lion" for short. She sighs.'']

Nina: Okay. Easy enough. (SUB: Lion-san.)

Lion: Ah!

Nina: Lion it is. (SUB: That's good enough, right?)

Lion: [shouts cheerfully and hugs Nina] I love you so much, Nina! (SUB: Nina-chan, I love you!)

[''The scene shows that Lion is hugging Nina in the air. The two and Belle fall into the water and the screen fades to black. At the school, Lion, Nina, and Belle are now soaked. A teal-haired girl, Yuko Morigaya, appears on screen.'']

Yuko: Goodness gracious, look at you two. You're soaking wet. (SUB: Goodness gracious, you're both completely soaked. What happened?)

[The fish on Lion's hands starts flopping around as Lion begins to panic.]

Nina: Yes, an unforeseen accident occurred. (SUB: An unforeseen accusation occurred.)

[Lion starts panicking again as the fish flops around.]

Yuko: Well, that's a shame. Are you the new student I've been hearing about? (SUB: Goodness gracious, so you're our new student.)

Lion: Yep, I'm Lion. This is Belle. [Belle squeaks.] (SUB: I'm Lion! And she's Belle!)

Yuko: It's nice to meet you. Welcome home, Lion and Belle. (SUB: Welcome home, Lion-chan, Belle-chan.)

Lion: This is my new home. Thanks, uh... (SUB: I'm home! Um...)

Nina: Her name's Yuko. She's in Grade 6 and she happens to be our resident advisor here at Shirakaba Dormitory. (SUB: She's in grade 6, and her name is Yuko-senpai. She's the dorm manager here at Shirakaba Dormitory.)

Yuko: Feel free to come get me if you need anything, okay? (SUB: If anything happens, feel free to come to me.)

Lion: I'll make sure to be just like that, thanks! (SUB: Okay, Yuko-senpai!)

Yuko: Now, first things first. Let's get you over to the bath, ASAP. (SUB: All right, then to begin with... Let's go straight to the baths.)

[''The scene shows an eyecatch of Belle on the fish. The next scene shows Belle, Nina, and Lion in the bathroom scrubbing themselves. Nina and Lion are naked. Belle is covered in bubbles, and Nina has her hair down.'']

Lion: It's kinda weird, but, Yuko reminds my of my Mom. (SUB: Yuko-senpai kind of reminds me of my mommy.)

Nina: Well, she likes things to be clean and tidy, so you'd better always keep yourself and your room nice and neat. (SUB: She likes things clean and tidy, so you'd better be careful.)

Lion: Oh! I'll do my best! (SUB: I'll do my best!)

Mahiro: [offscreen] Are you two already in the bath? (SUB: Are you guys already in the bath?)

[Yayoi, Mahiro, Karin, and Karen arrive in the bathroom as well while they're covering themselves up with towels.]

Yayoi: Since it's a special occasion, we should all bathe outside. (SUB: It's a special occasion, so why not come outside?)

Lion: Outside?

[''Japanese music starts playing. As the Japanese credits appear, the students are at the pool.'']

Lion: I can't believe you have a bath outside! (SUB: There's a bath outside!)

Mahiro: Is that a rare thing? (SUB: Is it rare?)

Lion: This is my first time. [sighs] Feels like heaven! (SUB: This is my first time! It's like heaven.)

Yayoi: I take it. You like it then? (SUB: Do you like it?)

Lion: Oh, yeah! I couldn't take a bath at all when I was stowed away on that ship. It was miserable. (SUB: Lots! While I stowed away on that ship, I couldn't take a bath at all.)

[Belle nods.]

Yayoi: You stowed away?! (SUB: Stowed away?!)

Lion: Yeah. My dad was just so against me leaving.

[A thought bubble shows Lion in a barrel while Belle is at the top.]

Lion: [offscreen] So, I snuck onboard and hid in the luggage compartment. (SUB: So I slipped in with the luggage and I was a stowaway onboard.)

Karin: [offscreen] What did you do after you got off?

Lion: I hitchhiked the rest of the way here. (SUB: Hitch-hiked.)

Karen: Ooh, that sounds really fun! (SUB: Sounds fun!)

Lion: Yeah, it was super exciting! (SUB: Yeah! It was really fun!)

Karen: I bet so! (SUB: I thought so!)

Yayoi: It doesn't matter if you had fun! Your parents must be worried sick about you now. (SUB: Being fun or not isn't the issue here! Doesn't this mean you ran away from home?)

Lion: My mom knows about it. (SUB: Mommy knows about it.)

Yayoi: When I heard a princess was coming to school, I never imagined, she'd be so wild. (SUB: I never imagined we'd end up with such a wild princess on our hands.)

Lion: [laughs]

Yayoi: That wasn't a compliment. However, I'll say that I find it quite admirable you'd want to be a Logicalist so badly that you'd run away from home in order to achieve your goal. (SUB: That wasn't a compliment! But, I do think your desire to become a Logicalist, so much that you ran away from home, is very commendable.)

Lion: And now that I've finally made it here, nothing's gonna stop me from studying really, really hard and becoming an amazing Logicalist! (SUB: You know what? I'm gonna try really, really hard here! And I'm gonna be an amazing Logicalist!)

Yayoi: [gasps] Well, I don't plan on slacking off, either! I'm going to study so hard that I'll graduate at the top of my class to become a master Logicalist! I'll become the next chief of ALCA! (SUB: I'm not going to fall short myself! I'll graduate at the top of my class! And I'll be a top class Logicalist! I plan to be chief of ALCA.)

Karin: And I'll be right by her side! (SUB: And I shall accompany her!)

Karen: Me too! (SUB: Me, too.)

Karin: That's awesome! (SUB: I see.)

[Mahiro makes an angry expression at Belle.]

Lion: What about you, Mahiro? (SUB: Mahiro-chan, what about you?)

Mahiro: Whatever's fine. (SUB: Whatever's good.)

[Yayoi, Karin, and Karen sigh.]

Yayoi: She has the talent to be a great Logicalist, but, she seriously lacks the desire to do so. (SUB: She's got the talent to be a Logicalist, but she doesn't have the desire to do so at all!)

Mahiro: I'll be happy as long as they let me do research on Foreigners. (SUB: I'll be happy if I can just do research on Foreigners.)

Karin: All right, I think that's a fine dream for someone to have. (SUB: But I think that's a fine dream in itself.)

Lion: Let me know if you find anything out about my Belle, okay? (SUB: If you figure anything out about Belle, let me know!)

Mahiro: So, are you saying that I have free range to do whatever I want with her?! (SUB: In other words, I'm free to do whatever I want with her?)

[''Belle squeaks with fear. Lion giggles and sees Nina.

Lion: Hey, Nina!

[''Nina turns to her. Nina gives a silent "shhh" and Lion covers her mouth.'']

Lion: [muffled] I'm sorry! (SUB: Oh, umm...)

Yayoi: Nina actually has the real experience on the battlefield. That's one way she's different from all of us. But, I'm sure somebody already filled you in all that. (SUB: Nina-san has actual experience on the battlefield. She's different from us. I'm sure your learned that yourself after today.)

Lion: Yeah! Someone did! (SUB: Yeah, you're right.)

[Lion takes a leap out of the water.]

Lion: All right! Let's go out there and make our dreams come true! (SUB: All right! Let's all make our dreams come true!)

[''Half of Lion's face turns red and her mouth turns into a triangle. The image of Nina begins to blur out.''] Lion starts to feel dizzy and collapses into the water.'']

Lion: Wh-What's this? There are two Ninas, and now three. Wow. Why are there so many Ninas? (SUB: There's two Nina-chans... three... Wow, there's so many Nina-chans...)

Nina: She stayed in too long. (SUB: It looks like she stayed in too long.)

Mahiro: Yup, sure did. (SUB: Sure does.)

Yayoi: Get her out of the water! (SUB: Lion-san!)

Karin: Hey, are you okay, Lion? (SUB: Are you okay?)

Karen: She's a boiled octopus!

[''The scene fades to black. The Japanese title reads "Episode 1: Send your cute Hina on a journey!". The scene next shows in the Japanese restaurant.'']

Rino: Kagura, will you please listen to me?! [sobbing] I heard that once you're over 24, your skin just can't repel water anymore. I'm 24-- what should I do? Because I tested this theory out during my last bath, and my body sucked up all the water. My skin's starting to take a turn for the worse! Man, I'd give anything to be a teenager again with that beautiful, clear skin! But now look at me! (SUB: Senpai! Will you listen to me? I heard that once you're over 24, your skin can't repel water anymore. But aren't I still over 24? So, I thought it was impossible and tested out in the bath... And it sucked up all the water! My skin's already taken a turn for the worse!)

[Belle turns on the TV to show the preview of Episode 2..]

Kagura: Fujisaki. I'm already 25.

[End of episode.]
