Modern, hot-blooded magical girl-Magical Diva.
I'll attack you with all I've got!

Hey, are you all right?
What's going on?

LOVE X HEAVEN I guess in the end this plan of mine won't work out at all!
Lady X Magical
U-Um, Estoh-san, what's the matter?
If you don't mind, could you tell us what's wrong?
I dropped my magic wand there...
Huh?
It's nothing. You guys wouldn't understand, anyway.
I remember dropping it somewhere around here...
Attention to the following student:
Pina Suforumukuran Estoh-san, please report to the principal's office immediately.
Me?
I repeat, Pina Suforumukuran Estoh-san, please report...
Yo, magical girl!
You are-
I don't know who dropped this,
so I approached Mikan-sensei for help.
I assumed that it'd belong to you.
Seems as though I assumed correct.
But you were really into it last night.
What was that?
Well, never mind. Forget it.
But I think it's really dangerous to be playing on a tree.
Here, don't lose it again.
I-I don't know what you're talking about...
Huh? Isn't this your precious magic wand?
What's it called again? "Magical lady something cheetah..."?
It's "Magical Girl Diva"!
I'm not a lady and I don't run fast!
I thought you didn't know?
Speaking of which, is it an anime?
That "Magical Girl Diva", or whatever...?
Yeah, it's a fabulous anime that's produced in Japan. You didn't know?
I don't watch that sort of...
The principal seems to really like it, but I...
Hmph, all of the humans in this academy are naive.
What's in your minds are the names of artists and the titles of theatrical plays.
Yet you don't know about produced anime in your own country.
What's up with that?
Seems like Japanese ladies feel they only need to know the formalities.
No, that is not the intention of our education.
Then why aren't there any students who want to talk to me about Diva?
I really hope I'll be able to popularise Diva and share it with others.
I'm proud of being an otaku, but...
Even if I cosplay here, no one will pay attention.
Nobody will respond when I talk about otaku stuff.
I feel so lonely!
So lonely, so lonely, so lonely!
Just how much do you like anime?
This time around it's Estoh-san?
Seriously, you really like to cause problems.
It's not that I like causing problems,
but, you know, the magical girl came falling from the sky.
Furthermore, she was even wearing a crown.
I thought I was dreaming.
That's the real thing.
Huh? What?
The crown, don't you know?
She's Pina Suforumukuran Estoh-san, the first Princess of the Northern European Kingdom of Suforu.
She especially loves Japanese anime and uses that as a reason to study here.
An ultra-VIP, real princess.
A-Are you serious...?
I used my usual abnormal tone with her!
Oh, you idiot! She's the princess of a kingdom.
What would you do if this incident elevated to an international crisis?
The diplomats will be sent home, and both countries will stop trading.
The friendship agreement will also revert to a blank sheet.
Even worse, Hakureiryou, which caused the problem, may have to be demolished due to international pressure.
If it really leads to that, you'll have to commit seppuku to pay for your sins.
I'm going to apologise.
T-These are...
The original manuscripts of Magical Diva!
Kaede, how did you get your hands on these rare items?
Because I'm the sponsor of the Magical Diva anime.
What?!
That's incredible!
I'm so jealous, Kaede!
What's this?
This is a promotional flyer for the sales of the Magical Diva doujinshi.
What?!
There's actually such an awesome convention?
There is. I've attended it.
It's so crowded that it's frightening!
I bought all of the doujinshi from the entire convention.
I see... that's it!
W-What's wrong, Pina-chan?
I... I want to make a book and participate in the convention, too.
That's great! I'll help you out, let's do it together.
You're really my only Diva comrade. I'm counting on you, Kaede.
No problem.
Let's make an extremely steamy one, the type of doujinshi that little kids definitely can't buy...
What's wrong, Kaede?
I'm sorry, I don't think I can help you out.
Why?
Besides you, who else would want to make one with me...?
I've got it!
That's why, Akiharu, you have to participate.
Why?!
I don't know anything about Magical Diva and doujinshi is-
You managed to listen to everything I said about Magical Diva until the end.
That's the reason why I want you to join.
Seriously, you're one stubborn princess.
I got it, I’ll join. But please forget about the incident where I used inappropriate language.
No problem.
Or rather, from now on we are doujin partners, so speak like you usually would.
Operations advisor?
Yeah, I don't want to create a loss, even though it's only a doujinshi.
I heard you were good at these sort of backstage operations.
May I ask where you heard that from?
Akiharu.
I understand. I'll try my best to help you within my ability.
Thank you very much, Tomomi.
You're welcome.
I'll do my best not to let down Akiharu-kun, who recommended me.
Huh?
Speaking of that, the first order of business is to find a beauty?
That's the first priority.
A beauty you say...?
What are the three of you talking about?
What, it's Drill?
Drill? You're a monkey that always fails to get it!
Because of that, you always get into trouble.
Oh, right! What do you say we ask Flameheart-san for help?
From their perspective
What's the matter?
It won't work!
Why do you say that?
There's no other candidate more suitable than her.
That's right, Akiharu. I agree with Tomomi's suggestion.
She is indeed very suitable, but she definitely won't agree to it.
Ah, that's true...
Even though she's very qualified, what a pity.
H-Hey! What exactly are you guys talking about?
It can't be helped, since it's Drill.
Well then, let's search for someone else.
Stop right there!
I didn't even reply, yet you guys mumble things, like, "unwilling", and "what a waste".
I'll do it! Even though I don't know what it is.
I, Selnia Iori Flameheart, will hold true to my word!
Kaede!
Diva!
Next time on Magical Diva: Episode 08, Deep Crisis!
Love, courage and violence.
I'll attack you with all I've got tomorrow, too!
Well then, I believe everyone here already understands the charm of Magical Diva.
I didn't think we were going to watch an anime...
I'm so tired.
It's so touching!
That's right. There's a reason why I asked all of you here to watch this anime.
I want everyone to make a Magical Diva book with me.
The doujinshi which encompasses the spirit of this wonderful piece of art.
In order to make it, hand over your heart and soul to me.
That's right, for me and my kingdom!
I thought she was going to say something elaborate...
But everyone is really pumped up, you know.
Here, look.
Pina's kingdom won't have to be destroyed as long as we give our best, right?!
Yeah, that's not exactly what it is, but the idea is there.
She even considered the country's benefits, I'm convinced.
I'd be most happy to help out.
You only have to strip naked? I got it.
TL note: Fou mentioned "Hitouhaga" which means very willing to help out, but Saori misunderstood it as stripping naked.
Onee-chan!
Yes, do it right away.
Pina! I brought over the things you told me to-
That's almost enough people, right?
Pina-san?
Not yet.
It's not enough. We're still one short.
The most important position is still vacant.
Who's this last person?
She's...
Hey!
What? What are you doing?!
It's this girl! She's our trump card.
Wait!
No!
Didn't I tell you to wait?
Why are you running? I want you to help out with the doujinshi-
I told you I can't do it.
I already said no before.
I have to draw properly for my next art exhibition.
I know, but no matter what, I still want you-
I'm really sorry.
So she escaped again today?
The deadline is approaching.
I think it's best we proceed with the plan without Osawa-san-
No, I won't give up.
I really hope that Minima will become a member.
Besides, if she joins, the standard of the book will also greatly increase.
I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation.
Drill, what's up?
What's with the content of this book?
I wasn't informed that it would feature such lustful things!
Calm down, Selnia.
This is only for trying to take into account what Diva fans like most.
What I'm saying is that showing women in such compromising positions in the book is a problem!
If someone spread the word that I was involved in the production of this kind of book,
the reputation of the Flameheart family would be in tatters!
Hey, you're crossing the line.
This book is produced through the combined effort of everyone.
Regardless, if you don't change the contents, I'll withdraw myself.
Hey, drill!
Pina?
Why?
How can such a small girl like you be this powerful?
It's because, I have the most important thing: the hearts of my friends who believe in me.
Our Kingdom of Suforu is a typical country with snow.
That's why indoor entertainment, such as anime and games, is much more popular compared to outdoor activities.
Amongst which Japanese anime is especially popular.
So the entertainment industry is state-owned.
Then, you're studying here also...
Yeah, it's part of the national policy.
Of course, it's also my dream.
Eh... That's really something.
Anime has taught me many things.
Friendship, hard work, victory...
Oh, right! I also learnt something from yesterday's broadcast of Diva.
The faith of the heart is important.
I'm really fortunate now.
I'm able to work with my friends whom I believe in.
I've never had such an experience until now!
I'm begging you!
Pina put everything into making that book.
So please, help us produce it like before.
You may be begging me, but the problem is still there.
I know, but I'm still begging you.
If you say it like that.
I'm counting on you!
I'll do anything for you!
I understand. So let's return and help Pina-san.
Really?
Yeah.
I did it!
Mimina, it's me.
It's Pina.
Are you home?
Hey, Mimina!
I see. Since you're not in, I have no choice.
I'm leaving this letter. Hopefully you can take a look.
Then, see you tomorrow.
Mimina,
I left the first
five pages of the script.
I'll be waiting.
Pina
What's this?!
T-This is...
How daring.
Aki! Why did you hide this from me all along?
Awesome, totally awesome!
Even this big pervert agrees, which means it's qualified to be sold.
It's more than qualified.
The Shikikagami sisters' page! Fou's page!
There's even Selnia's page! Incredible !
It's so lustful! Too lustful!
I'm going to the toilet.
You bastard, stay here quietly!
E-Excuse me...
U-Um, why is Pina-chan insisting that it has to be me?
Even if I agreed to help publish the book, I wouldn't be as big of a help as Pina-chan thinks.
I'm happy that she invited me.
Actually, I really like Magical Diva, too.
But...
If you like it, just do it.
Do it if you like it. Isn't that really great?
You don't need other reasons.
U-Um, Pina-chan!
Mimina!
A-Am I too late? I want to publish that doujinshi with you.
Of course not!
That's great.
"I always believed..."
"I always believed that you'd definitely join our team."
Magical Diva said that before.
Trust is an important feeling, isn't it?
Yeah!
Um, here.
What's this?
The manuscript that I'm in charge of, is it only five pages long?
Manuscript? What are you talking about?
Huh?
Heh?
Auditorium
W-What's this?!
I thought it was going to be an ordinary doujinshi.
I drew five pages of manga!
Look, look, look...
Didn't you inform her that it's a cosplay photo gallery?
I thought I told her about it.
No, you didn't!
Something like cosplay is so embarrassing.
What are you talking about?
It's not every day you see someone who's so compatible with Magical Kaede's costume.
The first time I saw you, I decided that you must be on my team to cosplay Magical Diva and Kaede.
Cosplay page. Beauties galore.
Plus the bonus page is Osawa Mimina's manga.
This will definitely be sold out.
Even in my dreams I didn't think it would be cosplay.
It really suits you.
Is that so?
Yeah. It's not every day you see someone with curves like that for cosplay.
What did you say?!
Saikyo-san! Stop right there!
I've decided! Next time I'll use the members here for a live-action shoot.
Oh dear, Flameheart-san, look at your tummy.

Does everyone remember there was...
It really bothers me, Flameheart-san's elated expression.
...a very important line in this episode?
Did something happen between her and Akiharu?
Hint: The scene where Hino Akiharu bowed down and begged me.
It's almost summer vacation. Could it be some sort of conspiracy?
Well, it's 100,000 years too early for her to surpass me.
Those who got it, stay tuned to the next episode.
