The magical girls have grown popular around Landsol. But in places where that light did not reach, darkness was growing.
???
... So, they've done it.
???
It seems like things never turn out the way I expect...
???
But I'm not giving up. Before anything else, I need to eliminate these interlopers.
???
... These magical girls.
Anti-beast
Roaaaar!
Scene: A town square in Landsol.
Man
Look! It's the magical girls! Hey, there are monsters this way!
Woman
Magical Detective Misty Kasumi! Magical Huntress Purely Shiori! We're cheering for you!
Purely Shiori
Yes! Everyone, thank you for your support...!
Misty Kasumi
T-Thank you...
Purely Shiori
Hey, Kasumi, do you see all the townspeople waving at us?
Misty Kasumi
I, I'm mostly used to going around like this now, but...
Yuuki
1. "The two of you have gotten really famous."
Morra
They certainly have, Sir Knight! At this rate, they'll be full-blown magical girls in no time!
Purely Shiori
In no time? Meaning, we're still not there yet?
Misty Kasumi
I figured it'd be too good to be true if we already were. ... Actually, I've been thinking this for a while. Morra, you haven't exactly been straightforward with us, have you?
Morra
What do you mean!?
Misty Kasumi
Then, let's hear it. The way in which we're still lacking.
Morra
Well, um, you know. It's, like, the "heartfulness" of a magical girl...
Morra
Umm... Ah! I sense an anti-beast!
Morra runs off.
Misty Kasumi
He ran away.
Purely Shiori
He did. ... Ah, I see the anti-beast.
Misty Kasumi
Right. Let's take care of it quickly.
Anti-beast
Roaaaar!
Purely Shiori
Here I go! ... Eek!?
The anti-beast hits Shiori.
Misty Kasumi
Shiori!? This anti-beast is so much faster than the others...!? Misty Bullet!
Anti-beast
Roaaaar!
Misty Kasumi
What, it avoided it!? Ahh!?
The anti-beast hits Kasumi.
Morra
You two! This anti-beast is different from those you've faced up until now!
Purely Shiori
It certainly seems that way...!
Misty Kasumi
Its speed is totally different. Why is it like this...!?
Anti-beast
Roaaaar!
Purely Shiori
Kyaa!?
Misty Kasumi
Wahh!?
Yuuki
1. Stand in front of them.
Morra
Sir Knight! Fighting an anti-beast without the powers of a magical girl, what bravery...!
Misty Kasumi
But my assistant will be in danger this way...! I have to do something...!
Purely Shiori
If we could just concentrate our firepower on it... But its movements are too fast...!
Anti-beast
Roaaaar!
Misty Kasumi
Assistant!
Purely Shiori
No...!
???
-- Nanaka Infinite Blast!
Morra
Wh-what!?
Purely Shiori
Magic!? Somehow, it's managed to stun the anti-beast!
Misty Kasumi
This is our opening! Shiori, focus your power on it!
Purely Shiori
Yes! Purely Arrow!
Misty Kasumi
Take this! Misty Bullet!
Anti-beast
Roaaaar!
The anti-beast is defeated.
Morra
... Somehow, we defeated it. But who cast that magic just now?
???
Victoryyyyyy!
Misty Kasumi
Eh!?
Purely Shiori
Eep!?
Morra
W-Who's there!?
??? (Nanaka)
I'll not reveal my name to the likes of you!
Yuuki
1. "Thanks for your help, Nanaka."
Nanaka
Ah, you're welcome. Wait, no! Yuukiii, why'd you spoil it!?
Nanaka
But if you must know, I am a magical girl just passing by. The greatest, strongest magical girl of your dreams, Nanaka!
Misty Kasumi
Judging by her flashy getup and her strange demeanor, she might be one of those "collectors" I've heard about. ... Though she professes to be a magical girl.
Misty Kasumi
(To think that she'd throw around such powerful explosive magic left and right... How terrifying... I'd really rather not get involved with her...)
Nanaka
You young ladies must be the rumored magical girls I've been hearing about lately, yes?
Purely Shiori
Umm... Yes.
Nanaka
I'd been overhearing more and more chatter about magical girls. I thought, maybe Nanaka's star as a magical girl has finally been rising! I got so excited that I started thinking about organizing an autograph session.
Nanaka
To think that it was not me, but another group calling themselves magical girls who had burst onto the scene...
Misty Kasumi
We're sorry to have caused you trouble. And thank you for your help. Now, we're in a bit of a hurry, so...
Nanaka
Hey, I won't let you escape that easily! This is a matter between magical girls!
Morra
She's kind of a strange girl... Is there anything you need from us?
Nanaka
I saw your fight earlier. And you are fatally lacking in one respect as magical girls!
Others
What!?
Nanaka
I would've preferred a surprised reaction like... "What is the meaning of thiiiiis!?" But regardless, allow me to instruct you!
Nanaka
What you are lacking! Is! An ULTIMATE ABILITY!
Scene: A house in Landsol.
Nanaka
All right, it's time for Nanaka's Special Training to begin! From now on... I shall be your coach!
Misty Kasumi
... How did we get dragged into this...
Purely Shiori
... Her energy is a bit much for me to keep up with...
Morra
But I think that what she is saying is correct! The anti-beasts are growing stronger, and continuing to use the same spells will eventually not be enough.
Misty Kasumi
You have a point... I guess? But why did you bring us into your house?
Purely Shiori
I'm wondering that as well. If we're practicing ultimate abilities, then it would surely be better to do it outside...
Nanaka
Heh heh. That's because the two of you will be... Browsing my painstakingly assembled collection!
Yuuki
1. "What is the meaning of thiiiiis!?"
Nanaka
Oooh, an excellent display of surprise!
Misty Kasumi
Assistant, you can keep up with her energy perfectly, huh... Meanwhile, I'm already feeling worn out. But... Browsing a "collector's" items might be interesting. I'm curious to see what she has.
Purely Shiori
Yes... There are so many books and other things that I've never seen before... But I also feel like I shouldn't touch any of them...
Nanaka
Oh my, are you young ladies connoisseurs? Alas, everything on that side is off-limits! The things you should be look at are... Over here!
Misty Kasumi
This is...!?
Purely Shiori
Magical girl... books, costumes, and merch...? Ah, this is the staff that Beruru used...
Nanaka
I also recommend my beloved "Magical Girl Serii"! Now, let us drill down into the world of magical girls! Oh, but don't actually drill into anything, okay?
Morra
Um, Nanaka? What does this have to do with ultimate abilities...?
Purely Shiori
It does seem to be rather irrelevant. ... But I just want a little peek...
Misty Kasumi
Ahh, is Shiori about to pass out...!?
Misty Kasumi
(There are tons of things I've never seen before... That doll looks super cute... I really want to try holding it...!)
Nanaka
It's nice, isn't it? You can try holding it if you'd like.
Misty Kasumi
T-Then, just for a moment...!
Morra
Ahh, even Kasumi! Sir Knight, what do we do...!
Yuuki
1. "This one looks interesting."
2. Stare at a figure.
Option 1.
Morra
You've already gotten settled in!? Ugh, what now...
Option 2.
Morra
What an serious expression...! He isn't saying anything at all...!
End of branches.
Later.
Purely Shiori
Coach, I can't find the next volume of this...
Nanaka
Oh, it probably got mixed up in that pile of books over there.
Later.
Misty Kasumi
Coach, was Magical Girl Serii's signature pose something like this?
Nanaka
No, no, you have to angle your neck farther down like this...
Later.
Everyone
......
Morra
Hey, hold it! Kasumi, Shiori, have you forgotten your mission!?
Purely Shiori
Wait a moment, I just got to a good part... Huh!?
Misty Kasumi
If I can get this pose just right... Wait!?
Morra
Have you two finally come back to reality?
Nanaka
Heh heh heh! The ability to captivate all people, old and young, men and women -- that is the power of magical girls!
Morra
If an anti-beast were to appear now, what would you...
Anti-beast
Roaaaar!
Nanaka
Speak of the devil, you know.
Morra
Look, look! We've been caught totally unprepared -- what now!?
Misty Kasumi
... Not at all.
Purely Shiori
... I believe that we'll be fine.
Morra
Huh...?
Anti-beast
Roaaaar!
Morra
This vigor... It's even more than the last one...!? Kasumi, Shiori, are you sure you'll be okay!?
Yuuki
1. "Let's believe in them."
Morra
Sir Knight...
Nanaka
Heh heh heh. Now, let us away, my disciples!
Misty Kasumi
Yes, Coach! If its movements are quick, the first thing to do is to stop them!
Misty Kasumi
I'll get to the bottom of this case in a single blow! With the power of love, I'll apprehend any villain! Misty Wrapping!
Kasumi's spell hits the anti-beast.
Morra
This is... A new spell!? That magical ribbon has bound the anti-beast in place!?
Misty Kasumi
Now, Shiori!
Purely Shiori
Yes, leave it to me!
Purely Shiori
Aim for the heart and concentrate! With the power of love, I'll never miss! Purely Aiming!
Morra
Shiori's power is gathering in that arrow...!? Where did this ability come from...!
Purely Shiori
I won't allow my mark to escape!
Shiori's arrow hits the anti-beast.
Anti-beast
Roaaaar!
Nanaka
Well done! A showing worthy of a magical girl!
Morra
I see... So a magical girl's spells are born of imagination. Through contact with Nanaka's collection, their conception of magical girls has expanded...!
Morra
It really was special training...!
Morra
Nanaka, you are truly incredible...!
Nanaka
Ahaha! I don't call myself a magical girl for nothing!
Nanaka
(Well, actually, I just wanted some magical girl friends to show my prized collection to, but all's well that ends well!)
Nanaka
Continue striving to improve, Magical Detective Misty Kasumi and Magical Huntress Purely Shiori!
Both
Yes, Coach!
???
......
Yuuki
1. "Is someone there...?"
Purely Shiori
Is something the matter?
Misty Kasumi
Huh? You feel someone watching? But there shouldn't be anyone around here.
Morra
Ah! I felt a strong presence, different from the anti-beast you just defeated... It seems to be gone now, but...
Purely Shiori
A strong presence... different from the anti-beast...?
Misty Kasumi
Hmm. They may well have been enemy spies.
Morra
(This presence... Is there a power different from the anti-beasts at play?)
Nanaka
It seems that the fated hour has arrived.
Nanaka
Our true fight begins now!
Others
... Sigh.
Narration (Nanaka)
Our heroes befriend a new magical girl, the amazing Nanaka! Wait, is my screen time already over!? That's totally not fair! Don't forget me, Magical Detective Misty Kasumi, and Magical Huntress Purely Shiori!
