- Ayame Part 1
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Hazuki: .........
- Konoha: .....
- Hazuki: ...Nn~...y'know
- Konoha: What's wrong?
- Hazuki: This means...it's started, hasn't it?
- Konoha: ...True. It has begun.
- Hazuki: ...Then~...what're we going to do? Ayame...hasn't showed up yet...?
- Konoha: True... ....Nn....Looks like she's here.
- Ayame: Thanks for waiting~! Where, where~?
- Hazuki: Oh, you're right. She is here.
- Ayame: Aah! There, there!! O-kay, let's go~!
- Hazuki: Ah~, hey wait! Ayame!
- Konoha: ...Seriously...
- Ayame: Choaaa!
- Witch: ....!
- Hazuki: ...Not only did she show up late, but for her to just go into it head-on, geez...
- Konoha: Well, it's okay, don't you think...? After all, this witch hunt... has already started a long time ago...!
- Ayame: Hehe! Then it's decided~!
- Hazuki: Ayame~ Wha~t in the world were you doing?
- Ayame: When I chased after a familiar, I got separated from you guys! Sorry, sorry!
- Hazuki: From a long time ago, you get lost right away...
- Konoha: Furthermore, you always come back to us at some point.
- Ayame: Right! So, that thing Konoha was talking about...u-hhh...
- Konoha: Homing instinct
- Ayame: That! Hmhm~m! Aren't I amazing?
- Hazuki: Don't be so proud of the fact that you get lost a lot. God...
- Konoha: ...You two. We should stop talking soon.
- Hazuki: Oops, crap, crap...we've been ignoring it.
- Witch: ....!!!!
- Ayame: Just leave it! To me!
- Konoha: No. Let's go at it like we usually do, with the three of us.
- Ayame: ....Oka~y.
- Konoha: ...Ayame can go first again, okay?
- Ayame: Seriously!? Yaaaahoooooo~!
- Hazuki: A~gain...Konoha, you spoil Ayame too much..
- Konoha: It's fi-ne...Can the two of you handle this?
- Ayame: Of course!
- Hazuki: Whenever you're ready.
- Konoha: Then, once again, we're going to start. ....Ahh, that's right, we still haven't introduced ourselves. Hello, Witch-san. ...And...farewell...!
- The source of disasters in this world... "Witches"
- The place where a large number of these witches are said to nest is in this city..."Kamihama City"
- The "magical girls" who shoulder the duty of hunting these witches spend each and every day fighting, getting hurt, and extinguish their lives here.
- ...These three magical girls, whose hearts are connected by a strong bond that goes far deeper than blood...
- Mikuri Ayame
- Yusa Hazuki
- And, Shizumi Konoha
- These girls will also be led to their fate, guided by their karma.
- Overcoming their past...
- Walking in the direction of the present...
- In order to survive in the future...
- Ayame: Wow~! There's a lot of room, a lot of room!
- Hazuki: What do you think? It's a pretty good house, isn't it?
- Konoha: You're usually good at looking for things, but I'm impressed that you were able to find this place.
- Hazuki: Well, doing stuff like that is my job~
- Ayame: Hey-- Hazuki! Where should I put this?
- Hazuki: Hm? ...Ohh~, your treasure box? In that case... there's a storage space over there so you can put it in there.
- Ayame: Aye-ye!
- Konoha: ...Did you pick up something new again?
- Ayame: Ah, yeah, I did.
- Konoha: What...?
- Ayame: Um...see! This!
- Hazuki: ...Eh!? ...Isn't this...
- Konoha: ...Yes... ...It's a...bicycle...bell...isn't it?...
- Ayame: That's right, that's right! This was the only thing that was on the ground!
- Konoha: Where did you...?
- Ayame: On the riverbed. I picked it up when I was looking for the witch. It still rings, see? Ringring~!
- Hazuki: You don't need to ring it! ...Geez~
- Ayame: But isn't it amazing? It's just the bell! Just the bell! Wonder where it came floating down the river from~
- Or did it just fall off on its own?
- Konoha: ...Fufu. You look like you're having fun, Ayame.
- Hazuki: But you know, don't you think that Ayame's habit of picking things up has escalated compared to before?
- Konoha: I think it's an improvement that she's stopped picking up things like bug carcasses, don't you think?
- Hazuki: Well~ yeah, but...
- Konoha: See, if she picks up things like bicycle bells...how do I say this...Yeah. It's a modern artistic...act...kinda?
- Hazuki: ...See? You spoil her by using optimistic thinking like that again~....
- Konoha: ...Oh!
- Hazuki: W, What, what? What's wrong?
- Konoha: Her instincts are pretty sharp, right?
- Hazuki: Hm... well, I guess you're right. We've been saved by that so many times...
- Konoha: It's possible that things like that...are connected to her artistic sense somehow...?
- Hazuki: ...... ...Ayame~ Try to cut back on how much you pick up, okay~
- Konoha: Wait, Hazuki, where are you going? There's a connection, isn't there? What do you think?
- Hazuki: I'm gonna go buy a bunch of stuff~
- Konoha: Then, go buy some art supplies and...Ayame, do you want to draw something?
- Ayame: Art? Me?
- Konoha: That's right. How about it? Just give it a little try.
- Ayame: ...Yeah! Fine by me--!
- Konoha and, Hazuki and, me...
- We've been together ever since we were little!
- The fun times and the happy times...
- and the hard times, and the sad times...
- We've al--ways, always shared them together.
- And!
- There's a place where we met...
- The name of it...
- It's called, "Tsuzuji's House"...!
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Hazuki Part 1
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Hazuki: My father and my mother died when I was little.
- It happened while we were on vacation.... we went to a nearby hot spring, you see...
- It was so much fun...
- The hot spring was nice, but we did things like go bowling and, oh! We did stuff like go up a mountain in a cable car!
- ...But, on the way home
- we got in an accident
- Just as we were getting really close to our house
- a car driven by a person who wasn't paying attention ran us over...
- The only one who survived was me
- ...Seems like my parents protected me...
- Hazuki: After that, I was passed around from relative to relative...in other words, I was "sent around".
- This and that happened, and the place I arrived at was...
- ...Tsuzuji's House.
- Tszuji's House was what you'd call an orphanage where
- a lot of kids like me were gathered together
- At first, deep down, I was scared...
- But on the outside, I kept up a smile
- That kind of stuff was what I got used to doing
- while I was being passed around...
- Even if they did or said things I didn't like to me, I kept smiling
- to make it through somehow...
- Well, it was a bad habit of mine or something...
- But, with what happened with my parents, with the relatives
- A lot of different things were pushing down on me
- and it felt like my heart was going to be crushed...
- Hazuki: That's why, in order to keep myself from breaking, I think I might've been forcing myself to smile
- But, it seems like the Director saw that smile and understood with just one look...
- Director: Hazuki-san...it's okay. You don't need to make a smile like that here. It's okay to smile from the bottom of your heart more.
- Hazuki: When I heard those words, the tears came overflowing out at once...
- I fell in love with the Director in one go!
- And Tsuzuji's House became my favorite place.
- My friends all had their own circumstances...
- That's exactly why it became a place where we all understood each other...!
- That person was always in the hearts of those friends...
- Shizumi Konoha...
- The one who looked after us in the way an older sister would...
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Konoha Part 1
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Konoha: My father was a businessman. The businesses he made deals with grew smoothly, and everything and anything went well.
- "Until you were born"
- I've heard those words from my father many times, over and over again.
- The moment I was born, it seems the gears in his mind went crazy.
- In a blink of an eye, his business performance hit a slump and my father shouldered a debt with large amounts of money...
- And, around the time I realized what was happening, my father died of an illness he got due to all the anxiety.
- Shortly after, my mother too...
- Since I didn't even have any reliable relatives, the orphanage took me in
- That was... "Tsuzuji's House"...
- Director: So you're Shizumi Konoha-san! Welcome, to Tsuzuji's House!
- When I arrived at Tsuzuji's House
- My heart was completely frozen over...
- All that I could see around me was an ashen color...
- But, although it was gradual,
- color began to return to my world.
- Director: Come on, Konoha-san! Look at this! It looks like this azalea is about to bloom, doesn't it?
- Konoha-san, I wonder what book you're reading today?
- Konoha-san, now, come over here!
- Konoha-san!
- Konoha: Konoha-san... Konoha-san... The Director would always kindly, warmly call out to me...
- Before I knew it, once I opened my heart up to Sensei[1]
- I could even open up to my friends as well.
- If the Director wasn't there
- Around now, I think I still would be in an ashen world.
- My beloved...beloved Director
- ...And that's how I was able to enter Tsuzuji's House in the true sense of the word.
- Some time later, the one who came next was...Yusa Hozuki.
- Hazuki was also saved by the Director, and her wounded heart was eventually healed.
- And, since our ages were close,
- we started to spend more time together.
- ...Though if you ask Hazuki...
- Hazuki: Nnn~...
- Well, how should I say this...she's the best Onee-chan out of all of us but...it just didn't feel like she'd leave me alone, you know~
- Konoha: ...That's what she says anyway.
- But...!
- Actually, I do give in when I should give in...
- ...But, it is true that they saved me,
- and even now that's the case but...
- ....
- Anyway, ever since then, Hazuki and I have been together forever
- And then, after Hazuki came,
- the one we met after some more time passed was...
- Mikuri Ayame.
- Director: Come now, Konoha-san, Hazuki-san. This girl is Mikuri Ayame-san!
- ...She's still this small and yet...makes you wonder...why...
- ...Excuse me.
- I'm so sorry, how could I...
- Now, Ayame-san. Introduce yourself to your onee-sans, okay?
- Konoha: It seems Ayame was found abandoned in a back alley downtown when they took her in.
- In other words, Ayame was a child who was abandoned by her parents.
- Hazuki and I both remember the faces of our parents
- But, Ayame can't remember at all.
- A big hand that was pulling my own
- ...Ayame said those was her final memories she had with those vague parents.
- ...Since Hazuki and I were in charge of looking after Ayame
- We started to spend more a lot of time together.
- Director was there...
- Hazuki was there...
- Ayame was there...
- Everyone was there...
- And, Tsuzuji's House was there...
- That was, my entire world.
- ........
- ...Until that day...
