Aaah! This feels great!
It's been a while since we all flew together, hasn't it?
All right!
Everyone's improved, haven't they!
Oh, yes...
Takeo, open wide!
Save it for later.
The Sakura tree,
I hope it'll bloom next year too.
That's...
Sae!
What are you doing? You're in such a daze.
Oh, it's nothing!
Here.
Thanks.
Aren't you glad you came to Sunday practice?
I guess so. At first I thought, not on a Sunday...
Aikawa! If you fly too low, people will see you!
Say aahhh.
I told you, save it for later!
Everyone's together!
Mikki,
How are you?
How's tennis practice going?
Everyone in the Magic Club is working hard.
Everyone feels the same,
It'll be great to be able to use wonderful magic.
That's how I feel!
Sae, the Tomato, and the Dance of the Paintbrush.
I don't get it...
Why did the girls change, while the guys stayed like this?
Because just us are going to do it... ??
Don't whisper in my ear like that!
Oh, Nanaka, about the next club meeting...
Oh! I can't make the next meeting, I'm going to be filming.
Filming?
It's for a film the Film Club is going to be showing at the Cultural Festival.
That's great!
Oh, the Cultural Festival...
Excuse me, President Takakura.
Yes?
What is it?
The Magic Club is going to participate in the Cultural Festival this year, right?
Well, yeah...
What? Forget it already!
Don't you remember what we did last year?
This is the Magic Club!
We're going to save the world!
It's a wonderful club!
It sounds like fun!
You were busy and never showed up. ??
Oh, really?
I'm never going to do anything embarrassing like that again!
Well, we didn't have a choice!
The Manga Club took away our club room.
But not this year!
We'll have to negotiate with Mizuha Miyama.
Of course!
We must take the early initiative!
We'll let her know where we stand first!
But she'll come here before we get a chance...
So to prevent that, we'll have to deal with those unreasonable people...
But if we do that, she'll bring up the past again...
She'll bring up those childhood memories,
those embarrassing memories I don't want to remember!
No wait! That isn't me!
Well yes it was me, but it's different...
Why does it have to be like this!
I'm home!
Welcome home!
Oh, wash your hands first!
Yes, ma'am.
Sis...
What is it?
The other day...
It's nothing, never mind...
Do you want to hear about my tumultuous love?
No, it's okay.
If everyone in the Magic Club combined their strength...
Something everyone could enjoy...
Oh! Fortune telling sounds neat!
But not just regular fortune telling, Magic Card fortune telling.
If Akane dressed like this, it might be cute.
Something like this for Nanaka.
And make over the room too.
Not too weird though,
Would it be better to make it cute?
I should ask what everyone thinks...
Vice-president Aburatsubo's going to be pretty busy.
I'll set up a time table.
One person per hour,
Two people for the morning...
Geeze, Nanaka!
I'm almost done.
Sheeze, how can you be such a nut about this even in class?
Well...
I don't think we should leave it all to President Takakura.
It really feels like it's before the Cultural Festival, doesn't it?
Do you remember the haunted house in Intermediate school?
It was a lot of work, but it was fun.
Your ghost Sae, wasn't scary at all!
But an Elementary school kid cried.
Is making a kid cry anything to boast about?
We're very sorry, excuse us!
Nanaka, you think of something too, okay?
The Cultural Festival? I'll leave it to you.
I have to go to the Film Club now.
That's great Nanaka! You're the heroine!
Well, just call me an actress.
After Aikawa's mom, it'll be me!
See ya!
Now then!
Magic Club New members recruitment inside
Hello!
The President isn't here yet?
Huh? What's this?
This Side is Unmistakably The Manga Research Club
The Manga Club is usually more...
What are you doing?!
This cut's no good!
Don't open the door without warning!
I'm sorry!
But what are you doing with the room so dark?
It's anime! We're shooting an anime!
Anime? Like they have on television?
Oh! I liked that show, Magical Girl...
This is totally different than that!
This is featuring Ms. Mizuha Miyama's original character design and production,
it's an artistic masterpiece!
Really?
Hurry and close that, will you!
Oh, okay!
I wonder where President Takakura is?
Just what does the Magic Trick Club think they can do for the Cultural Festival?
Why don't you entertain the young children?
Don't talk like that to me! We are a legitimate school club! We have the right to use a clubroom!
I couldn't hear you very well.
Would you please come closer?
Alright then!
And so that's why...
I guess Akane's not coming today either.
Act more natural, this way...
Okay!
It's cold!
I'm freezing!
Don't be so glum!
Hey you!
All right! That's more like it!
That's it! It's a complete shutout!
Aya!
The only one who can call him Aya is myself, Aburatsubo's fan club president, Michiko Mikote!
How many times do I have to tell you!
I'm sorry, President.
Okay, Aburatsubo!
You haven't come to practice but you haven't lost any technique.
No, I don't have any topspin.
I've become a bit rusty.
That's not true at all!
I'll approve your entry into the Cultural Festival invitational tournament.
The Cultural Festival...
Well, I've been entered into the Drama Club performance.
Never mind about that!
In our school, only tennis can bring pride to your heart!
Well, I'll think about it.
Aburatsubo?
Please enter!
Please!
This... is the entrance arch, isn't it?
What? Yeah,
That's right.
When you come through this gate, it'll be exciting, won't it?
It gives you feeling that it's not same school.
Here, take this.
Oh, wait!
There's a blank poster here.
But, but I...
I have to finish that monster over there,
I've got a meeting too.
So, please.
But... this is so big.
I can't paint a picture by myself.
Now listen carefully.
I'm in charge of the executive committee of this years Cultural Festival.
If there's even the slightest misconduct,
it will be a blemish on my countenance.
You can understand why I want to be certain you understand this.
Do you understand?
On top of that,
I have to supervise production of the Manga Club's animation.
Bimbu, Kouji!
Status report, please.
Yes ma'am.
The originals are almost done.
We need Ms. Mizuha to check the work.
You see, I am very busy.
As committee chair that is all.
If you have any further inquiries, I cannot take them.
Well then, dismissed!
What's this!
What should I do?
I've still got this much to paint...
No, I have too! Everyone's going to be welcomed by this arch!
I have to paint an enjoyable picture.
Alright!
That magic Vice-president Aburatsubo used before...
Dance joyfully, okay?
Say, Aikawa,
Want to go to a club?
Okay!
What... are they making me do?
Done!
Wow! That's pretty good!
What? You think so?
You're second year, right?
You should join the Art Club.
What? The Art Club? Me?
I can't...
I love drawing, but...
But it's not good enough to show people.
I'll draw in my letters to Mikki, but...
Oh, but anyway,
I'm already in a club!
That's right!
There's something I have to go and do!
Excuse me!
That's too bad...
I'm sorry!
Nobody's coming today, after all...
Darn that Mizuha...
Sawanoguchi?
President Takakura!
Wh-what are you...
Oh, a nap.
I see, I see.
I...
was waiting...
What?
I was waiting for you, President Takakura.
What?!
I thought...
I thought we could walk home together.
Oh I see!
In other words, as my underclassman...
Not as an underclassman!
But that's right,
President Takakura, you would only think of me as a regular underclassman, wouldn't you?
No, that's not true, Sawanoguchi!
This time I'll come out and say it, you're not just a regular underclassman to me!
Your a special underclassman.
I will scale the underclassman- upperclassman wall!
I will let the man within me tell you!
Sawanoguchi!
Will you go-go-go-go...
President!
I was out of control, whew.
President!
The Magic Club, for the Cultural Fest...
It is time to leave, people preparing for the Cultural Festival will also need to leave.
What? Practice?
Because... today's Wednesday already...
Yes, that's true.
But I wasn't free today after school.
That's why we took the day off.
I...
didn't even listen to what you said, President...
There's no need to be so upset.
I...
was alone all this time in the club room.
I thought of all kinds of things.
I began to worry that no one would ever come to this club room.
And then I felt really sad.
Th-that...
The Cultural Festival was getting closer and closer, and still no one,
Even you, President Takakura!
I'm sorry...
I didn't mean it that way...
Oh, that's alright.
Sa-Sa-Sa-Sa-Sawanoguchi!
Sae!
Nanaka?
Nakatomi?
What's wrong?
What happened?
I'll tell you later.
Will you wait for me?
I'm going to change.
Sure.
Man, that freaked me out!
I'm no good when it comes to ghosts.
Oh, President Takakura,
about before, I really...
Oh, that's okay, really!
Take care then!
Okay! Thank you!
I was only thinking of the decline of the club.
I've tried hard this year to keep the Manga Club from taking back our club room.
There's been nothing to be proud about.
You should do something...
Excuse me...
Who are you?
You should do something more enjoyable.
Huh?
Who is this person?
Does he go to our school?
From the Manga Club?
Um...
This time it's a real one!
And then,
they made me hold a tomato and say things I couldn't understand.
Really?
So what kind of movie is this?
I dunno.
They said it was art, or something like that.
But a lead part is a lead part.
Then why don't you do it.
I've had it already!
You can't do that! You took the part already so you have to finish it.
Oh yeah!
I thought of something the Magic Club could do.
How about magic fortune telling?
Fortune telling?
Fortune telling, huh?
I might even want my own fortune told.
But you know, would we wear our uniforms again?
No, you see...
it'd be magicians of the world,
I thought everyone could wear different costumes.
Hmm, but you know,
For the Cultural Festival, I'm part of the announcement crew.
They've got a lot to do.
Oh, that's right...
But you could use Aikawa,
Oh, she might not be done at work.
Vice-president Aburatsubo then...
That's right, he's supposed to be in the Drama Club's play!
I can't miss that!
'K then, bye bye!
Bye bye...
Dear Mikki,
It's almost the Cultural Festival,
But it looks like everyone's going their own way.
It's kind of sad...
But I want to make the Cultural Festival fun,
So I'm going to do my best!
