Story
Ayame 1
Konoha Shizumi and Hazuki Yusa are waiting for their partner Ayame Mikuri in order to fight a witch together. Suddenly Ayame rushes in and attacks the witch. Ayamae says she was separated from the others when she was chasing a familiar. Hazuki and Konoha says she keeps getting lost and coming back all the time. The narration explains these girls are connected by a bond deeper than blood. Afterward, the trio appear to be moving into a new house that Hazuki found. Ayame brings in her treasure box, where she stores random things she finds on the ground. Her most recent addition is a bicycle bell she found after beating the witch. Hazuki and Konoha say that at least she's not picking up insect carcasses anymore. Ayame narrates that she's been with Konoha and Hazuki ever since they were little, when they met at "Tsuzuji's House" (Azalea's House)
Hazuki 1
Hazuki narrates that when she was little her family went to a hot spring resort. As they were coming home a car ran them over, killing her parents. Hazuki only survived because her parents protected her. Hazuki was bounced around between relatives until she came to Tsuzuji's House, an orphanage. Ever since her parents died, Hazuki hid her true feelings with a smile. Hazuki then met the Director of Tsuzuji, an aging woman. The Director quickly saw through Hazuki's mask and told her she didn't have to make a smile like that, which made Hazuki cry. Tsuzuji would become Hazuki's favorite place, where Hazuki and her friends all understood each other. She narrates that Konoha was like their big sister.
Konoha 1
Konoha's father was a successful businessman. After Konoha was born, his fortunes turned and he died from an anxiety-induced illness. Konoha's mother died as well, and she was brought to Tsuzuji's House. With the help of the Director, Konoha was able to recover from her parents' deaths. Hazuki would arrive later, also saved by the director. Konoha and Hazuki would become friends. Sometime later the Director introduced the girls to Ayame, who was found abandoned in a back alley. Ayame says all she can remember of her parents was a big hand pulling her own. Konoha and Hazuki were placed in charge of looking after Ayame. For awhile, Konoha's world was Tsuzuji's House and what was essentially her surrogate family, until one day...
Hazuki 2
Konoha overhears the Director arguing with the Tsuzuji's Vice-Director. They are arguing about the demolishing of Tsuzuji's House. Konoha tells Hazuki, who is horrified. Konoha explains the Director was against it and it was the first time she ever heard the Director raise her voice like that. However, the Vice-Director was the one who brought up the demolishing in the first place. Hazuki says the Vice-Director was there even before Konoha came, and wonders why the Vice-Director would want to demolish the place. Konoha thinks that someone is always trying to ruin their lives, pointing out that everyone who comes to Tsuzuji have had their lives gone wrong like this. The girls decide not to tell Ayame and to speak to the Director about this.
Konoha 2
The girls talk to the Director who explains that a brand new orphanage program has been instituted by the government. Orphans from across the country would be sent to newly built institutions with a new educational curriculum. Tsuzuji was chosen to be the first institution to be integrated into this program - which means the orphanage would be demolished and the children separated. The girls ask what they can do, and the Director says they can listen to her complaints when she's tired. She promises to do something about it, and tells the girls to do what they always do. Afterward Konoha and Hazuki look on the internet and find the new program is surrounded by rumors of political and corporate interference. They later learn the Vice-Director colluded with the government and was behind the demolition in the first place. They learned this after the Director collapsed.
Ayame 2
Though the Director said it was just fatigue, she dies shortly afterward. Ayame said it was so fast she didn't know what was happening. The girls mourn the Director's death, and Hazuki and Konoha tell Ayame about Tsuzuji being demolished. None of the girls know what will happen. Although they try to protect Tsuzuji, in the end it was decided the demolition would go through. But then it didn't...
Hazuki 3
The night before they were supposed to leave Tsuzuji, Hajime and Ayame walk around the building. Ayame apologizes for waking Hazuki up. Hazuki says she couldn't sleep eithier, but wonders why Ayame came to her and not Konoha. Ayame says she couldn't find her. She then spots Konoha talking to a strange white creature. When they get close, Kyubey introduces himself.
Konoha 3
Konoha wasn't able to sleep, so she walked around Tsuzuji until she met Kyubey. When Kyubey makes his offer to the trio, Ayame jumps at the chance to save Tsuzuji's House. The other two are more skeptical. Konoha says she alone will contract to save Tsuzuji's House, pointing out that only one of them needs to bear the risk. Hazuki says she can't let her do it alone. Hazuki asks Kyubey if there's a catch. He doesn't gave a straight answer, which is enough for Hazuki to say she can't just let Konoha contract alone. Ayame agrees with Hazuki's position. Realizing that they'll contract anyway, Konoha agrees to become magical girls together.
Hazuki 4
Ayame is about to wish, but Konoha says that since they have three wishes they should plan it out. Konoha suggests they first wish for "Tsuzuji's House to indefinitely continue to exist". She thinks their next wish should be "erase the main cause that tried to demolish Tsuzuji's House", which will prevent other orphanages from suffering the same fate. Konoha says this is her judgement against those who tried to destroy her world. Ayame suggests using their third wish to revive the Director, but Konoha isn't sure that's right. Hazuki thinks even if the Director comes back she might not be the same person they knew. She also thinks it fails to take the Director's feelings into account. Konoha says that wish is too selfish. To the surprise of Ayame and Hazuki, she says their third wish should be "to erase us from the memories of the people involved with Tsuzuji's House", saying that they're going to have to leave.
Konoha 4
Konoha explains that as magical girls they will have to live entirely new lives. She asks Kyubey if this is the case, who gives an unhelpful answer as expected. Konoha explains they don't know what will happen and that by erasing the memories of everyone at Tsuzuji they won't cause trouble for them. Ayame doesn't want to leave, and Konoha says these are simply her thoughts. Hazuki says she thinks Konoha's last wish is the right thing to do, as it will also protect Tsuzuji's. Hazuki says she'll be fine with that wish and tells Ayame to make whatever wish she wants. Ayame decides to accept Konoha's plan. Afterward, Ayame wished for Tsuzuji's House to continue existing, while Konoha wished to erase the main cause of Tsuzuji's demolishing. (This leaves Hazuki with the third wish of erasing everyone's memories of them). Konoha says that as a result of her wish, all the rumors on the internet of the new orphanage program were publicly confirmed. The politicians and other parties involved were all punished, the Vice-Director left Tsuzuji's House, and the three magical girls leave themselves.
Ayame 3
Ayame narrates that after becoming magical girls they went to different places. Konoha explains that as magical girls they have to keep fighting witches forever to replenish their magic. Hazuki and Konoha are aware that it's probably a bad idea to run out, though they don't know why. For some time, they lived in a city outside of Kamihama City, looking for witches. One day, they returned to Kamihama when they learned there were more witches there. After moving into their new place, Hazuki thinks it doesn't feel like it's been that long. Konoha says they picked a school that would help them avoid meeting the children from Tsuzuji's House. Ayame narrates that Konoha has money saved up, and made more by investing in stocks. Hazuki does cooking and cleaning, causing Ayame to wonder if they're basically her parents. Ayame (poorly) draws a picture of the trio. She thinks they'll always be together, and the Director won't have to worry.
End No1 (Konoha 5)
Konoha sees a pair of strange visions. She first sees Nanaka Tokiwa saying they could have worked together, while Hazuki says she'll think of something. In her next vision she sees Yachiyo Nanami telling Rena Minami to stop. Rena insists it's not her fault. Hazuki says it's too late, and Ayame's going to die. Hazuki then falls unconscious. Ayame says she doesn't want to be alone. Konoha screams.
Konoha 6
Konoha suddenly returns to reality. Hazuki said she was spacing out. Konoha tells Ayame she bought her some ice cream. When Ayame leaves, she tells Hazuki about her vision, claiming Ayame was suffering. Konoha asks Hazuki what she was doing. Hazuki said she was staring off into space. Konoha says this is the first time this has happened to her. She wonders if the vision somehow came from another magical girl. Konoha asks Hazuki to keep this a secret from Ayame.
Konoha 7
Sometime later, the trio meet Nanaka, Akira Shinobu, Kako Natsume and Meiyui Chun, all in magical girl form. Nanaka thinks she recognizes them from school. Hazuki asks if they're friends. Kako says they are, thought Meiyui says they have only joined forces. Nanaka says they are in an alliance to fight witches. Nanaka says she observed the trio fight a familiar, and that they fought extremely well. Meiyui says they were the first ones to find the familar, but the trio beat it when they lost sight of it. Konoha asks if they're suggesting her group stole it. Kako disagrees, while Ayamae insists she found it first. When Kako expresses confusion over Ayame's speech patterns, Ayame blurts she's thirteen - which is Kako's own age.
Nanaka says that it doesn't matter who found the familiar. She asks the trio to join forces with her group. Meiyui telepathically asks her group if it's alright to ask people she just met to join. Akira says it's not much different than their first meeting, though Meiyui said that took more time. She thinks Nanaka is asking the trio on a whim. Akira guesses Nanaka is acting on her instincts, but they're Nanaka's instincts. Kako says she doesn't think they're bad, guided by her instinctual powers.
Meanwhile the trio telepathically talk to each other. Konoha says they can't trust anyone other than themselves, which is how it was and always will be. Hazuki thinks they should gather more information. Ayame is suspicious of Nanaka and Meiyui, thinks Akira is strange for using male speech patterns, and can't think of anything about Kako. Konoha says they can't trust any of them. At this point, the player is given three options.
Route Split
Let Hazuki handle this: Go to Hazuki 5.
Think about it some more: Konoha silently thinks for so long that Ayame speaks out. Go to Ayame 4
Konoha will negotiate: Go to Konoha 8.
Konoha 8
Konoha says she'll talk to Nanaka, despite Hazuki's protests. Konoha doesn't intend to join forces and simply wants to get information on a potential enemy. However, Nanaka doesn't give her anything to work with. All Konoha can figure out is that Nanaka is suspicious. At this point, if the player has completed certain conditions, they are given two options. Otherwise they are forced to pick the first option.
Route Split
Distance ourselves from Nanaka: Konoha decides it's better to stay away from Nanaka and asks her to leave them alone. Hazuki asks if this is alright, but Konoha says it's the safest path and they can find information elsewhere. Nanaka understands and says she can't force them to join. Konoha announces neither group will interfere with each other from now on. Nanaka says it's disappointing and that they could have worked together. Konoha recognizes those words from her vision. Nanaka's group departs, followed by the trio. Go to End No2.
Keep searching: While thinking of what to do, Konoha silently stares at Nanaka. Hazuki says they're having a stare down. Ayame wonders if she should make them laugh, but Hazuki isn't sure that's a good idea. Despite being told to calm down, Ayame speaks out. Go to Ayame 4.
End No2 (Konoha 10)
Konoha narrates she thought she didn't need connections with other magical girls. Hazuki tells Konoha she thinks the trio should join other magical girls. She says that Kamihama is getting magical girls from other cities, and worries that the group might clash with someone. Konoha says they only need to defeat witches first, but Hazuki says even that could offend someone. She also thinks Nanaka's group won't look the other way next time. Konoha says they don't need any unnecessary relationships and tells Hazuki to drop the discussion.
Unfortunately, Hazuki's fears became true. The trio get into conflicts with other magical girls over Grief Seeds. One day, Ayame suddenly collapses in front of Konoha and Hazuki, her Soul Gem crumbling apart. Konoha realizes this was the work of a magical girl. Ayame calls the names of her friends before she dies. Hazuki says it's too late as Konoha screams.
Hazuki 5
Konoha allows Hazuki to make negotiations. Both groups introduce themselves. Hazuki says to call it a day, claiming that it's hard to give an answer on the spot when the trio have been working together for a long time. Nanaka agrees and says they can talk later over tea. Akira notes that while both girls are smiling, their eyes are not. Kako then blurts out she's also thirteen, and says she's happy to find another magical girl the same age as her. Boht groups depart. Kako thinks Ayame reminds her of Felicia Mitsuki.
Ayame 5
The next day Ayame thinks about Kako. She thinks she's suspicious, but can't get over how Kako said she was the same age. Suddenly she hears a noise. It came from Kako, who says she was startled by Ayame saying "Ahh---geez" to herself. Kako explains she passed by Ayame earlier and wanted to say hi. She asks if anything is wrong, but Ayame insists she was doing vocal exercises. Kako invites Ayame to talk some more, and maybe become friends. She invites Ayame over to a park, and wants her to meet another magical girl she knows: (Felicia). Ayame thinks about how Konoha told her not to trust anyone. When Ayame goes silent, Kako apologizes and prepares to leave. However, Ayame says it's alright to talk.
Hazuki 7
Hazuki thinks that Nanaka might be hard to deal with and could easily use them. However, she thinks it's possible for her group to use Nanaka instead. However, she knows Konoha won't give up her position. Still Hazuki wonders if the trio can keep living without connections to others. Hazuki then decides what to do about Nanaka. The player is given two choices.
Route Split
Think about it some more: Hazuki decides to wait and buy stuff for dinner. Go to Hazuki 9.
Firmly join forces with her: Hazuki thinks Nanaka would have her carried off and looks like she's trying to dig for information. Feeling that their isolation would hurt them in a crisis, she decides to act fast and secretly contact Nanaka. Go to End No3.
End No3 (Hazuki 8)
Hazuki narrates she made a terrible mistake. She teams up with Nanaka and asks her to keep it a secret from Konoha. Hazuki claims she was left with enough freedom to act on her own discretion. Later, she makes connections with other magical girls. Hazuki narrates that she thought she could handle it, but she was arrogant. One day, Konoha sees her talk to a magical girl. Hazuki says this was the first time they met, but Konoha realizes she's lying. Hazuki narrates that Konoha got angry and they stopped talking to each other. This got them into trouble when they fought a witch. Because they couldn't coordinate, Ayame was attacked and had her Soul Gem shattered. Konoha screams. Hazuki says it's too late.
Ayame 4
Konoha decides to leave the talks to Ayame's decisiveness, claiming it saved them in the past. Ayame tells Nanaka's group they've been a trio since she was one year old. When she says she met them thirteen years ago, Akira points out her math is wrong. Nanaka asks if they've been magical girls for a long time. Ayame says they aren't, but Hazuki stops her from saying anything else. Kako suddenly says she's 13 years old too, and introduces herself. Ayame then introduces herself, at which point Hazuki takes over as she claims things have gone in a strange direction. Hazuki says to call it a day for now, and says to contact her if they have questions. The groups depart. Kako says goodbye, and thinks about how Ayame is the same age as her and Felicia.
Hazuki 6
Hazuki thinks Konoha won't let the group join other magical girls, and thinks she should try to get information out of Nanaka. However, she realizes she doesn't have a good way to do so. The rest of the story is the same as Hazuki 9.
Hazuki 9
On her way to buy dinner, Hazuki runs into Ayame. Ayame says she was just going home, but Hazuki points out she's going in the opposite direction. Hazuki wants to know where Ayame was really going to go. Ayame reveals she was going to meet Kako, claiming she's gathering information. Hazuki says it's alright. She thinks that Ayame was the youngest girl in Tsuzuji's House, and so didn't have any friends her own age. Hazuki thinks that Ayame wants to be friends with Kako for that reason. Ayame asks if it's alright to tell Konoha, but Hazuki says to wait until they can surprise her. She thinks Konoha would be against it, but Ayame is connecting to others by herself. Hazuki thinks that Ayame is really happy to make friends, and it could be beneficial to the group as a whole. She thinks she'll soon tell Konoha about her thoughts.
Ayame 6
Ayame brings Hazuki to Kako. Kako introduces them to Felicia. Kako says Felicia is really strong. Ayame insists she's strong too. When Hazuki claims to be Ayame's guardian, Felicia says Ayame can't be strong if she has a guardian attached to her. Hazuki then backtracks and asks to be thought of as Ayame's friend. She insists Ayame's strong, and stops them from fighting. Kako pulls out snacks. Later, Ayame thinks she'll fight Felicia next time, but wonders if it's alright to not tell Konoha. When she asks Hazuki about it, she says it should be saved for a surprise. Hazuki says both Konoha and herself believe in Ayame's instincts, and she tells Ayame to go with what she thinks and feels. At home, Ayame thinks Kako and Felicia are fun to be around, and tries to balance those feelings with what Konoha said. She is broken out of her reverie by Konoha, who says Hazuki has been calling her to set the table. Ayame narrates that she wonders if wanting to play with Kako and Felicia is a bad thing.
Konoha 9
Konoha notes that neither her group nor Nanaka's have made a move, and she is fine with leaving things like this. She notes Hazuki wants to use them as an information source, but Konoha thinks it's unnecessary and they can't trust anyone else as much as each other. Konoha thinks their world is fine with just the three of them. When Hazuki calls Ayame to set the tableware, Konoha sees Ayame hanging upside-down over the sofa spacing out. She tells Ayame to go to Hazuki. When Ayame leaves, she thinks about how she wishes these days could continue forever. As she reminisces on the past, Konoha sees visions of Ayame and Hazuki. Konoha narrates that she further strengthened her resolve to protect the trio's world. However, a few days later, something tested that resolve. It turns out that something caused Kamihama's magical girls to begin fainting, and suspicion fell on the trio...
Intermission
In this section of the story, magical girls speak to an unseen individual.
First, Kanoko Yayoi says she met the trio when they defeated a familiar. She said she was surprised to meet the unseen person afterward. She talks about a rumor where magical girls get dizzy and collapse from an illness. Kanoko says she thinks it's just anemia. Kanoko then says she always looked through magazines and never would have thought the unknown person was a magical girl. Kanoko asks her to look at her latest design, which is a mushroom.
Next, Natsuki Utsuho tells the unseen magical girl that she heard a magical girl is using her powers to cause the collapses. She says she can't believe it, because she believes magical girls are supposed to be like teammates. The unseen girl seems to agree. Natsuki wishes for the safety all magical girls and cheers for them. She then apologizes for being too loud.
Finally Mitama Yakumo tells the unseen girl she has a stern look on her face. Mitama says she doesn't know any girls that could be responsible for the collapses. She's asked if she met any magical girls recently, as the ones who recently showed up in Kamihama are the most suspicious ones. Mitama says she doesn't know, but is told something which causes her to realize the unseen girl had to investigate. She reveals a magical girl named Hazuki Yusa came to check things out. Mitama says she's revealing this because she knew the unseen girl for a long time. Mitama says Hazuki was gentle-mannered, and doubts she could have caused the collapses. Mitama thinks Hazuki would be worth "fiddling" with. The unseen girl leaves and when Mitama says goodbye, it's revealed this girl is Yachiyo.
Ayame 7
Kako Natsume asks Ayame Mikuri and Hazuki Yusa to meet her at the park with Felicia Mitsuki. Felicia and Kako say there's a rumor where magical girls have been collapsing after fighting a witch or a familiar. The suspects are believed to be magical girls using their powers to make others faint. According to Kako, the magical girls attacked are still sleeping, though she can't verify if it's true. Kako says it's keeping magical girls from hunting witches - which may be the intent of the culprit.
Kako reveals that there's another rumor which states Hazuki and Ayame's team are responsible. However, both Kako and Felicia don't believe it. Hazuki thinks that a rumor like that has to come from somewhere, and the only magical girls her team knows are Nanaka Tokiwa's team. Kako says Nanaka thinks Ayame's team is innocent. In fact, Nanaka believes they're being set up. Hazuki thinks that if the rumor spreads they'll become targets, even though they aren't responsible. Hazuki and Ayame thank Kako and Felicia and depart.
Hazuki 10
Hazuki explains what happened to Konoha Shizumi, though she claims Nanaka told her. Konoha thinks that bad things happen to them no matter where they go, and suggests keeping an eye on the situation. She wonders if this is connected to her visions. Konoha doesn't have a hunch, but she feels a chill down her spine. Sometime later, the trio meets Yachiyo Nanami. Hazuki and Konoha recognize her as the oldest magical girl in Kamihama City - and Konoha thinks Yachiyo is older than herself. Yachiyo explains she wants to talk to the trio about the fainting rumors.
Yachiyo explains many strange things happen in Kamihama. For example, there was the "Dueling Girl", a magical girl named Tsuruno Yui who issued challenges to everyone. Yachiyo also tells them about familiars disguising themselves as magical girls to get them to fight each other. Yachiyo says this is a personal matter because one of her friends, Momoko Togame, has been attacked. Ever since she was hit by a familiar's surprise attack, Momoko has always been on guard, which makes this especially shocking. Yachiyo says that Momoko is awake and only lost conciousness for a few minutes. However, one of Momoko's friends is blaming the trio for it.
Konoha says they aren't responsible, and Yachiyo agrees. Yachiyo reveals that she was present when Momoko was attacked, and the trio's magical signatures aren't the same as the ones she felt. Having confirmed this, she apologizes for the trouble and leaves. Ayame is happy that they've been proved innocent, However, Konoha has darker thoughts.
Konoha 11
The next day, Konoha suggests leaving Kamihama City. Even though Yachiyo said they were innocent, Konoha can't really believe it's true. She also thinks things will get worse if they stay. In order to avoid further interference, Konoha thinks the best thing to do is to leave and start again elsewhere. The player is given two choices.
Route Split
Look toward Ayame: Konoha asks Ayame what she thinks. Go to Ayame 8.
Look toward Hazuki: Konoha asks Hazuki what she thinks. Go to Hazuki 11.
Ayame 8
Ayama thinks back to a time when she hung out with Kako and Felicia. Kako shows Ayame a pop-up picture book. Ayame is amazed, but Felicia says she prefers fight manga. However, she still reads the book with the others, prompting Ayame to say Felicia was only pretending to be uninterested. In the present, Konoha asks Ayame if she agrees with her thoughts. The player is given two choices.
Route Split
Convince Konoha: Ayame says it's better to stay in Kamihama. When Konoha asks why, she initially can't respond. Hazuki then claims Ayame is frustrated, as leaving would make it look like they were the ones responsible. Ayame hurriedly agrees and says it's not right for them to leave if they did nothing wrong. Konoha asks Hazuki if that's what she thinks as well. Go to Hazuki 11.
Obey Konoha: Go to End No4.
End No4 (Ayame 9)
Ayame reluctantly says she'll do what Konoha says. Hazuki asks if this is alright, but Ayame says that they've come this far as a trio, and it's better to start over in another city. Konoha asks Hazuki what she thinks. Hazuki answers that if the other two have decided she'll go with it. Ayame narrates they left Kamihama a few days later, and she never got the chance to say goodbye to Kako and Felicia.
Hazuki 11
For the sake of Ayame, Hazuki tells Konoha they shouldn't leave. She points out that the rumors might still follow them to another city, and they could get trapped in a cycle of leaving whenever a new rumor is spread. Hazuki says they should properly clear up all suspicions, or at the very least, stay a bit longer and keep an eye on things. Konoha says she's not satisfied and doesn't want thing to get worse. Hazuki says if it does, they'll leave Kamihama. She asks if Ayame is alright with this, and she answers yes. Konoha then wonders what they should do, and Hazuki says she can talk to people. Konoha tells her to avoid getting too deeply involved. Hazuki thinks that she got Konoha to stop thinking of leaving, and mentally apologizes for what she will do next.
Hazuki 12
Hazuki's next step is to contact the girl who was attacked, Momoko. When they meet, Momoko notes that Hazuki contacted her by leaving a letter in Momoko's shoebox. When Momoko asks how Hazuki knew what school she goes to, Hazuki says she has reliable information channels. In fact, she learned the information from Kako, who claimed Momoko was a friend of a friend. Momoko says Yachiyo told her about the trio, and is willing to hear Hazuki out. However, she doesn't think they're completely innocent, as she doesn't trust anything unless she sees it herself with her own eyes.
Hazuki admits Momoko has a point and says her group isn't responsible. Momoko admits she didn't expect her to say it straight out. Hazuki asks Momoko to help her look for the culprit. Momoko reiterates that she doesn't think they're innocent unless she sees it herself with her own eyes, and her eyes still think Hazuki's suspicious. Momoko then asks if Hazuki still wants to ask Momoko to help look for the culprit. The player is given two choices.
Route Split
Find someone else to team up with: Go to End No5
Convince Momoko: Hazuki insists her group is innocent, and asks Momoko to see it with her own eyes. Momoko says Hazuki's eyes are clear and is speaking from the heart. She immediately agrees to help. Hazuki claims she believes the real culprit is spreading rumors about the trio being responsible. She thinks if they can find the rumor's source they can find the culprit. When Momoko asks why Hazuki needs her help, Hazuki says that if the first victim finds the culprit with her, that would prove her team's innocence. Momoko asks if she's being used. Hazuki says if she's going to be that blunt, then yes. Momoko laughs and agrees to help. Hazuki thinks of Konoha and Ayame, and mentally tells them to wait for her.
End No5 (Hazuki 13)
Hazuki apologizes to Momoko and asks her to forget the conversation ever happened. Hazuki continues to investigate. One day she's contacted by Konoha, before she can respond Hazuki gets a funny feeling and is unable to respond. Hazuki narrates that she was attacked, and didn't know what happened next. "After all, I never opened my eyes ever again..."
Konoha 12
Konoha narrates that several days have passed since Hazuki said she would gather information. Hazuki has yet to bring results. Konoha says she doesn't regret the decision, but she's still anxious over how things aren't moving forward or backward. She wonders if those feelings dragged her into this situation. Ayame tells Konoha that Hazuki is late again and asks if it's that hard for her. Konoha says it is, but Hazuki is doing something the other two can't. Konoha asks Ayame what sort of bento she would like to eat. Ayame wonders how long they'll have to have bentos, and Konoha says it depends on Hazuki's results.
Konoha narrates that Hazuki is in charge of cooking. With her absence, she and Ayame buy dinner at place like the supermarket. The situation happens when they go there to buy bentos. Rena Minami and Kaede Akino are at the store, and see Konoha and Ayame shopping. Overhearing their names, Rena realizes they're the girls from the rumor. Rena decides to test them and calls them out. Rena says that her and Kaede are Momoko's teammates. Kaede points out that since Rena yelled an employee is looking at them. Rena asks Konoha and Ayame if she can borrow them.
Outside the store, Rena introduces her and Kaede and asks if they're the ones making magical girls faint. Ayame insists they aren't. Kaede tells Rena to hold on and brings up Yachiyo. Rena admits that she believes Yachiyo but she feels something isn't right. She says she wants to see the truth for herself by fighting them. Kaede says she's acting like Tsuruno Yui, and Rena says she couldn't think of anything else. Ayame tries to accept Rena's challenge, but Konoha tells Ayame to leave it to her. Konoha wonders if this is part of someone's scheme, and won't risk putting Ayame in harm's way. Konoha tells Rena she'll make her calm down.
Konoha 13
Konoha thinks Rena's logic was all over the place. She believes that she's unleashing her frustrations at being unable to find the culprit on herself and Ayame. However, Konoha doesn't plan on just offering her cheek. As the girls fight, Rena notices Konoha is strong. Suddenly Yachiyo arrives, having been called by Kaede. Yachiyo tells Rena to stop, but Konoha accidentally launches an attack. Rena appears to make an attack of her own as a bright light appears. Suddenly Kaede screams and says Ayame has suddenly collapsed.
Konoha rushes over to Ayame's side. Ayame is alright, saying something hit her head. She say that when she watched Konoha fight she suddenly got dizzy. Konoha notes that Ayame's Soul Gem is safe, but she can't forgive Rena for doing something like that. She calls out Rena for attacking Ayame, but she insists she didn't do that. Konoha turns on Kaede, who says she couldn't do something about that. She then turns on Yachiyo, who tells Konoha that this is the same as before. Konoha says this has nothing to do with this. She says someone here had to have attacked Ayame. Rena says there's no way. Konoha says that she and Hazuki would never attack Ayame and suddenly screams that everyone else is a suspect. Ayame says Konoha is acting scary.
Suddenly Konoha sees a series of visions: Ayame and Hazuki saying her name, Ayame saying she doesn't want to be alone, Hazuki saying it's too late, Konoha saying it's just the three of them, and the Director telling Konoha to look at the azalea about to bloom. Konoha says she must protect them and repeatedly says she's had enough. Back in reality, Yachiyo notices something about Konoha has changed. Konoha says she doesn't care about clearing their names anymore. She says they haven't done anything, but everything and everyone around them keep ruining their lives.
Konoha tells Ayame to call Hazuki. Ayame does so, and hopes Hazuki comes soon. She thinks she can't handle this by herself. Konoha says that before Hazuki arrives, they'll start with the people over here. Ayame asks what she means, Konoha shouts that they will crush and smash all the other magical girls. Yachiyo tells Konoha to calm down. Konoha says she is calm and that she found her answer. She says if they beat up all the other magical girls, it'll be like the culprit and suspicions never existed. Yachiyo says if she does something like that the suspicions will become real. Konoha says it's fine since it doesn't matter. She says they will defend themselves from those who threaten them, and what they will start doing will demonstrate their will to do so.
Konoha 14
Ayame transforms and steps in front of Konoha. Konoha tells her to move. Ayame says it isn't right to fight others like this. Konoha says Ayame's the one who leads charges, but Ayame says that fighting witches is completely different. Konoha blurs past Ayame to attack Rena, but is blocked by Yachiyo. Konoha is amazed, but says it's expected of the oldest. Yachiyo asks not to be called that. Konoha asks if Yachiyo will be the first to get in her way. Yachiyo guesses Konoha won't stop and prepares to fight.
Suddenly Hazuki and Momoko arrive. Momoko asks what happened. Konoha screams at Hazuki, asking her why she's with Momoko. Hazuki says she heard what happened and won't let Konoha do something reckless. Konoha demands Hazuki answer her question. Hazuki says Momoko is helping her find the culprit. Rena asks Momoko why she didn't say anything. Momoko says she wanted to wait for results. Yachiyo asks how the search turned out, but Konoha screams she doesn't care about that. Konoha says they can't trust anyone other than themselves, and she asks why Hazuki would do this without telling her.
Hazuki says it's time to tell Konoha what they think. Hazuki claims they should face the outside more. She agrees they were abused by circumstances, but recently she started wondering if they can trust others. Konoha says they've gotten this far only by trusting themselves. Hazuki brings up the Director and their friends at Tsuzuji's House. Konoha says they're different things. Hazuki says they're the same. She claims that they've forgotten, but there used to be people they could confide in. Hazuki says if they take a look around, there's people they can trust.
Konoha tells Hazuki to stop and asks why she's saying those things. Ayame sees Konoha is crying. Konoha says it's always been the three of them, and she was fine with that. However, when the Director passed away and they left Tsuzuji's House, Konoha only had Hazuki and Ayame. Hazuki says Konoha feels that strongly about them. Konoha says she doesn't want to connect with others because she's scared something important to her will be destroyed again. The player is given a final decision of three choices.
Route Split
Hazuki's decision: Go to End No6.
Ayame's decision: Go to Ayame 10.
Konoha's decision: Go to End No7.
End No6 (Hazuki 14)
Hazuki says they shouldn't make everyone else into enemies and says she only worked behind Konoha's back because she was thinking of them. Hazuki says this was their only realistic option and asks Konoha if she understands. Konoha does, but won't accept it. She thought their hearts were always together, triumphing over things like realistic calculations. Hazuki protests, but Konoha says she'll go with her decision. Konoha apologizes to everyone for losing control and takes back everything she said earlier.
Yachiyo asks Hazuki if that's okay, and Hazuki says she's sure they'll be fine. Hazuki narrates the situation was settled, but they never found the truth behind the fainting incident or Konoha's hallucinations. With Yachiyo's help, the girls were able to get by in Kamihama. However, ever since that day, Konoha has closed her heart off from Hazuki. Hazuki narrates it's causing Ayame, stuck in the middle, to suffer. "Once again, today, in this hollow room... our eyes that no longer met at all crossed..."
End No7 (Konoha 15)
Konoha says that the things precious to her were already destroyed. Hazuki says it isn't, and Ayame says they're right there. However, Konoha says it's already broken. Konoha narrates that she decided not to fight and the situation ended. Afterward, Hazuki and Ayame told Konoha they sympathized with her feelings and would cut off their ties with the outside. However, Konoha thinks that this wasn't how they truly felt. The trio held their awkward feelings and continued an awkward relationship. Konoha thinks that relationship will soon come to an end. "Just as I thought, the things that were important to me were already broken at some point..."
Ayame 10
Ayame says she has a secret of her own: She's made friends. Konoha says that Ayame is keeping secrets from her too. Hazuki apologizes and claims she was the one who suggested it to Ayame. Konoha asks why they would keep that a secret from her. Hazuki says it's because they thought that if Konoha knew she wouldn't forgive them. Konoha admits that's right. Hazuki says that for the first time, Ayame bonded with a kid she met of her own will when she spent all her life following the other two.
Konoha flashes back to Tsuzuji's Hose. She remembers the Director telling Konoha and Hazuki to look after Ayame for her. She also asks Ayame to listen and do as the others tell her, and to follow them so they won't get separated. The Director tells them to hold each other firmly by the hand, and continue to live supporting each other. Back in the present, Hazuki says that when she saw Ayame make a friend, she believed that people who can understand them are out there somewhere.
Yachiyo says that as time passes, they might see each other a bit more. She asks the other girls if they agree. Momoko and Kaede do, but Rena seems reluctant. Momoko tells her to speak honestly, and Rena says it's not like she doesn't think that way. Konoha asks Ayame what her friends are like. Hazuki says to wait a moment and says that on her way here she tried to contact Ayame's friends. She couldn't reach one of them, but the other should be arriving soon. Suddenly Kako comes running in. Kaede is surprised to see her, and Ayame is surprised Kaede knew Kako. Kako is surprised by this as well. Kaede introduces the others to Kako. Yachiyo says she's heard of her. Rena says nothing, causing Momoko to say Rena is just being jealous. Rena insists that wasn't it.
Kako asks if a witch appeared. Hazuki says a lot happened and brushes it off. Kako then apologizes to Konoha for keeping her friendship with Ayame a secret and says she should properly introduce herself. Konoha asks Kako what she thinks of Ayame. Kako says Ayame is a precious friend. Konoha is silent for a moment and then chuckles. She thanks Kako and asks her to look after Ayame from now on as well. Kako says she looks forward to doing so. Ayame tells Konoha and Kako to shake hands. They do so, and Hazuki notes how tightly their holding each other. Konoha says Hazuki's idea of having relations with the outside was right, but she can't accept it from the bottom of her heart. She claims she can't change that quickly, but seeing Ayame and Kako made her think she can believe it's possible.
Hazuki tells Konoha to take her time thinking about it. Konoha wonders if she has friends. Hazuki says she does - herself. She thinks of Konoha as her first friend, even since they met at Tsuzuji's. Konoha chuckles and says even she had friends right by her. Momoko says it's all settled now, but Yachiyo says there's one matter left. Konoha agrees and says they should discuss this. Yachiyo says they can do so after they adjourn here. Rena says that she feels things haven't gone well for her. Kaede says it turned out alright, and Rena feels like she's being consoled by Kaede. Hazuki thinks she's glad things turned out alright, but wonders what would have happened if Felicia showed up.
Felicia then wakes up, having fallen asleep in a park.
True End
Konoha narrates that after the incident, Hazuki and Momoko tried to find the origin of the fainting rumor. However, the trail soon went cold. Hazuki says that te real culprit started the rumor to fool them, and doubts a witch could do it. When Yachiyo talked with Konoha, Konoha apologizes for losing control, but Yachiyo tells her to forget about it. Yachiyo says that Rena, Kaede and herself did not move, nor was there a reaction caused by their magic. Konoha says the same was true for her. Yachiyo says this means the person who attacked Kaede wasn't present. Konoha and Yachiyo agree to expose the culprit's true identity. Konoha thinks she will make them pay for using her team.
Konoha narrates that the event is still covered in darkness. She also doesn't understand the illusions she saw. She believes that the illusions, which swayed her heart before she realized it, reached their peak when she decided to make everyone her enemy. Since then, she hasn't seen any illusions and is no closer to uncovering the mystery. However, Konoha claims they did learn one thing.
The story cuts to Kako, Nanaka, Akira Shinobu and Meiyui Chun about to enter a witch's barrier. Suddenly Ayame arrives and says they're going in first. Kako asks her to wait, but Ayame says that's how it's going to be now. Hazuki arrives with Konoha and says they're going to pass through here too. Konoha says there's no hard feelings as they enter. Nanaka says they're going in after them. Kako says it's not fair, and Ayame playfully chuckles. It appears the teams have formed a friendly rivalry. Konoha narrates that there are a lot of witches in the city, and there are magical girls who hunt them. She says that magical girls are shouldering the same fate, as humans who share the same circumstances. She tells the Director that they may have found their new "Tsuzuji's House".
Epilogue
Kyubey speaks to an unseen individual. He asks if things have gone as the individual planned. It's revealed this individual is the culprit of the fainting incidents, which never actually happened. In fact, the only people the culprit attacked were Momoko and Ayame. After she attacked Momoko the culprit spread the rumor of magical girls suddenly fainting. It's also revealed the culprit did not show Konoha visions. Rather, she hypnotized Konoha in order to make her go on a rampage. Kyubey asks the culprit if she were okay with the result. The culprit apparently replies she only did this on a whim. Kyubey notes this whim changed the fates of Kamihama's inhabitants, and claims that this was what the culprit was really after. Kyubey says that if witches are "disasters", then the culprit is, for now, "chaos".
