Azalea House....
A place that showed me real love.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302830.png
Ayame Mikuri
When I knew nothin' about family, that place
taught me warmth.

Ayame Mikuri
So I wasn't...
I just wasn't gonna turn my back on it!

Episode 1

These are the recollections of a wish...
...made by a Magical Girl named
Ayame Mikuri.
♪ Musical track: Remain
—Ayame Mikuri—
Dear Director,
I'm a Magical Girl now.
—Ayame Mikuri—
Me, Konoha, and Hazuki stick
together through thick 'n' thin.
—Ayame Mikuri—
We get into some scrapes now
and then, but as long as we're
together, it works out somehow.

Hazuki Yusa
That Witch was tougher than it looked.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302630.png
Konoha Shizumi
No two ways around it though—we were played.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302630.png
Konoha Shizumi
She totally suckered us into this...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302630.png
Konoha Shizumi
...Nanaka Tokiwa.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302630.png
Konoha Shizumi
We need to be more careful about dealing with
her and her team.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302730.png
Hazuki Yusa
You've got a point. It feels like she shoved
a chore on us that they couldn't be bothered
with.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302630.png
Konoha Shizumi
Are you listening, Ayame? Watch out for them.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302830.png
Ayame Mikuri
Yup! Got it, got it!
File:Exedra Story Icon 302830.png
Ayame Mikuri
(Better not mention my plans to hang out with
Kako then...)
File:Exedra Story Icon 302830.png
Ayame Mikuri
(She's a good person, even if Konoha doesn't
like her team so much.)
—Ayame Mikuri—
See, Kako's a Magical Girl I met after
movin' to Sankyo Ward. And we're both 13
years old, so we hit it off quick, y'know?
—Ayame Mikuri—
But lately it feels like there's some kinda
turf war goin' on between our teams...
—Ayame Mikuri—
...so we keep buttin' heads with them.
—Ayame Mikuri—
It's like, me and Kako can't even hang
out without feelin' guilty or something...
—Ayame Mikuri—
I know it's not a huge deal,
but what would you do, Director?

Kako Natsume
Uh, Ayame...? Are you all right?
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Today it finally happened. Konoha basically
said...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
...to keep away from your team.
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
She said that...?
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Yeah, so I had to sneak out to see ya today.
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
It must be because of all that's happened
between us, you think?
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Beats me. But that's the only explanation,
right?
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
Sh-should we be doing this, then?
You meeting up with me and stuff...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
It's fine, it's fine! Konoha's shoppin'
somewhere far off today.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
I was mopin' earlier since it's gonna be a
pain to sneak around!
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
Oh...
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
Well, Nanaka hasn't told us we can't talk to
your team or anything.
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
But she did say to remember that we can't
always know people's motives...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame & Kako
......
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Enough, enough! I don't wanna talk about dumb
stuff like this anymore!
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
So let's have some fun now, Kako!
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
...Okay!
—Ayame Mikuri—
Me and Kako are good friends, but
we can't hang out 'cause our teams
don't get along or whatever...
—Ayame Mikuri—
Don't you think that's kinda weird?

Ohhh... That's the book you liked so much,
huh?
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
Yes. It's about an adventure on the high
seas.
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
It's an easy read too, so I thought you might
want to check it out...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
But the book's as thick as a brick!
Just thinkin' about it puts me to sleep.
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
It's only because there are lots of pictures
too. I think you'll get through it just fine.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
It's got pictures?! Why didn't ya say so
first? Let's see them!

This illustration is pretty, right? I like it
too.

You can see all the main characters watching
the sun sink below the ocean horizon...

Say, Kako...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
When the sun sinks into the ocean...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
...do you think the water starts to bubble?
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
Huh? Bubble like...when you're boiling
something in a pot?
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Yeah, yeah! Exactly!
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Like when a pot of water gets all hot and
starts to bubble up!
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
You know what I'm sayin'? So when a red-hot
sun sinks into the sea...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
...won't the water start boilin' up from the
heat?!
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
Uh... To be honest, I don't think that sounds
right.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Why not?!
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
Well, it's not like the sun is really sinking
into the water, right?
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
It's not? Then where's it disappearin' to?
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
Hm... How do I explain this...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
You ever seen it for yourself?! As proof it
doesn't sink into the water!
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
No, I can't say that I have...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Uh huh! So let's go to the beach right now!
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
What?! Right now?!
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
I won't believe it 'less I see it with my own
eyes!

Kako Natsume
Uh... I guess there are lots of things...
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
...you can't really understand until you see
it.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Right, right? Exactly!
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
And it might be nice to go and see the ocean
too...
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
After re-reading the book, I can't stop
thinking about visiting the sea.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Then it's decided! Let's me and you go to the
beach!
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
...Okay!
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
I'll pull up a map on my phone...
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
It's a little far... But look here.
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
There's even a good spot where you can see
the sunset!
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Yeah, yeah! Let's go straight there!
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Oh, but how do we get there?
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
...Looks like we have to take a train and a
bus.
File:Exedra Story Icon 301131.png
Kako Natsume
If we leave now though, we can make it in
time for the sunset.

Kako Natsume
Yes, I'll let my family know.

I'll let my team know too, since I wouldn't
want Nanaka to worry...

Kako Natsume
How about we grab a bite to eat before we
ride the bus?

Ayame Mikuri
The thought of buyin' food to eat and run
feels like breakin' the rules a little!

Kako Natsume
Yes, I don't really do that either, so it'd
be kind of a thrill!

I always wanted to eat cup noodles on the
curb outside a convenience store like people
do sometimes.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png

But I don't have much money, so we'd have to
share one.

File:Exedra Story Icon 302631.png
Konoha Shizumi
We need to figure this out on our own.
—Ayame Mikuri—
We tried really hard, y'know.
Tried the best we could to keep
from losing Azalea House. But
us kids didn't stand a chance.
—Ayame Mikuri—
And then, the day we were
gonna leave Azalea House...
—Ayame Mikuri—
...we met Kyubey.
—Ayame Mikuri—
Kyubey said you could have
any wish come true if you
became a Magical Girl.
—Ayame Mikuri—
So we talked about it—me, Konoha, and
Hazuki—and decided on a couple wishes.
—Ayame Mikuri—
Then we'd each make a wish
and become Magical Girls.
—Ayame Mikuri—
The first was that Azalea House
would stay open forever and ever.
—Ayame Mikuri—
That was the wish I made!
—Ayame Mikuri—
The second was to bring down
anything out to get Azalea House.
—Ayame Mikuri—
But since we had a one more to
decide, I came up with an idea...
—Ayame Mikuri—
...for our third wish!
File:Exedra Story Icon 302831.png
Ayame Mikuri
Oh, wait, I know! We can bring the
director back!

Konoha Shizumi
Would that really be the right thing to do?

And I wonder what she'd think of us if we
did...

I know wishes are selfish by nature, but
even so...

far.

I respect her too much to do that to her.
—Ayame Mikuri—
So, I'm sorry, Director.
—Ayame Mikuri—

but I could see where they were comin'
from...
—Ayame Mikuri—
Then, for our final wish...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302631.png
Konoha Shizumi
...We'll have everyone at the Azalea House
forget we were ever there.
—Ayame Mikuri—
Cause bein' Magical Girls meant
we'd be livin' a strange life, y'know?
A new and dangerous one...
File:Exedra Story Icon 302631.png
Konoha Shizumi
There's a chance that we might cause
problems for everyone else.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302631.png
Konoha Shizumi
So we need to erase all evidence that we
ever existed here.
File:Exedra Story Icon 302631.png
Konoha Shizumi
And never involve ourselves with Azalea House
again...
—Ayame Mikuri—
And that was it. We were officially magical.

Konoha Shizumi
The three of us are still going to be
together, even after we leave!
File:Exedra Story Icon 302631.png

No... We'll be even closer than ever!
We'll live together, hands held tight!
File:Exedra Story Icon 302631.png
Konoha Shizumi
No matter what, we'll have each other!
We'll keep going, just us three!
—Ayame Mikuri—
And the rest is history.
Azalea House was saved, the
bad guys were found, and the three
of us moved away to live together.
—Ayame Mikuri—
So I'm pretty good... Or just good...sort of.
—Ayame Mikuri—
See, Konoha doesn't try and get
along with other Magical Girls.
—Ayame Mikuri—
So it's makin' it awkward for
me and Kako to be friends.
—Ayame Mikuri—
But I know Konoha's not sayin' these
things to make me miserable.
—Ayame Mikuri—
She's only doin' it to protect the team.
Of course I get that, Director...
—Ayame Mikuri—
I get it, but I wish she would get this...
—Ayame Mikuri—
I care about all of them.
Konoha, Hazuki, AND Kako.
—Ayame Mikuri—
Maybe she'll never understand...
