Iwaigawa Shopping District
First Street
Morimura Fruit and Vegetables
Her name was Asahina Mikuru.
One Head of Cabbage/Limited Offer/Half off!!
At first glance, a quite ordinary, industrious, and sweet girl...
...but in truth, she was a combat waitress from the future.
As for why she came from the future or why she's a waitress...
...those are just minor details.
They were created with the story...
...and are part of the strange setting that has been thrust upon us.
Sorry to bother you!
A large amount of fresh cabbage came in today!
Just for the next hour...
...each head of cabbage is half off!
Incidentally...
It's been established that she's a combat waitress...
...so why does she suddenly appear in a bunny girl costume?
That is because of her day job of attracting customers to this local shopping district.
Oh, my!
That's some cheap cabbage there!
W-We should buy some right away!
Mikuru-chan!
I see you're working hard today.
Y-Yes!
I'm trying hard!
Mikuru responded cheerfully in her costume that was trying too hard.
With her innocent charm, the cabbages sold out in an instant.
Morimura Kiyosumi-san (46)
Thanks for always helping out.
It's not much, but please accept it.
No! Please don't say that!
I should be the one apologizing.
This is all I am able to do...
Then, I have to go to the butcher's now.
Goodbye... oh!
Bye bye!
By now, she had become an irreplaceable mascot character for this shopping district...
...and was loved by the local residents.
Hang in there, Mikuru!
Bring the customers back from that large department store that opened last year.
The fate of this region's economy and mom and pop stores rest solely upon your shoulders.
However, this has nothing to do with our story.
Moving along to the actual story...
As you know, she is a combat waitress...
...and her mission is basically...
...to secretly protect a certain boy.
The boy's name was Koizumi Itsuki.
At first glance, a quite ordinary, carefree high school student...
...but in truth, he was an esper.
However, he had yet to realize that.
It appeared that something was needed...
...to trigger the awakening of the super incredible power within him.
It appears that she was unable to approach the older student she admired.
Although the two of them look the same age.
In any case...
...we'll say it was just a sigh of relief when she saw that Itsuki was safe.
Kumai's Butcher Shop
And afterwards...
...Mikuru, continuing to work in her licentious costume...
Suzuki Stationery
...eventually returned to the stationery store where she was currently residing.
Suzuki Yuusuke-san (65)
Welcome back.
How was work, Mikuru-chan?
Um... It was okay.
There were a lot of customers today...
It was good business!
That is good to hear.
Today's work was done.
Mikuru could finally remove that sleazy costume...
...and dress in a casual manner.
Just to make things clear...
...no further filming was done of the changing scene.
I have no words of comfort to offer your dejected spirits.
I'm not lying.
And without any buildup or fanfare, we now see Nagato Yuki.
Even if she were ordinary, she sure doesn't look like a normal person...
...and naturally, she was actually an evil magician.
And an alien on top of that.
But I'm wondering...
...this scene seems to be intended to show us Yuki has something planned for Itsuki...
But there is no point in her staying behind at school when Itsuki has already gone home...
...and a short while back one could tell it was near sunset...
...yet right now it appears to be noon.
Filming at whim is fine...
...but at least do some editing to prevent awkward cuts like these.
Zipping along, Mikuru and Yuki had their first confrontation.
As for all the happenings that led from their first meeting to their fated relationship...
...I'll have to allow the viewers to imagine each girl's circumstances.
For the following scene...
If production actually went according to plan...
...it will be a great blessing.
Koizumi-kun...!
Itsuki-kun will not fall into your hands!
I will protect him!
Allow me to explain.
This typical-looking stick...
...is a magic wand called "Starring Inferno."
I-In that case, I'll use my trump card!
Mi-Mi—
Mikuru Beam!
Allow me to explain.
The Mikuru Beam...
...is a very dangerous beam attack...
...that comes out of Asahina Mikuru's left eye.
Cut! Cut!
What unexpected turn of events will come next?
Hey, Yuki!
What are you doing?
- That wasn't in the script!
What will be the fate of Mikuru?
- Hey, Nagato!
Why did Itsuki suddenly show up?
Ohmori Electronics
Th-This store...!
Um...
...has a very friendly owner!
And he's a nice guy!
This store has been around since the current owner, Eijirou-san's grandfather!
Th-They carry everything from batteries to refrigerators!
U-Um...
Also...
A-Anyway, please visit Ohmori Electronics!
After being defeated by Yuki in their first encounter...
...Mikuru was troubled.
The Mikuru Beam doesn't work...
I have to do something!
It seems that Mikuru wasn't a transforming superhero...
She actually had to physically change.
And apparently, she has to go to work again today.
At that moment...
...Itsuki was walking down the street with the usual vacant look on his face.
Who are you?
I am a magic-wielding alien.
Really...
Really.
What do you want with me?
You possess a hidden power.
I am after that power.
If I say that it's too much trouble, what would you do?
I will use forceful measures to take you if I must.
What are these forceful measures you speak of?
Like this.
Look out!
Ow!
Owie...
I-I won't let you have your way!
I shall back off for now.
However, you won't be so lucky next time.
Use this opportunity to prepare your tombstone.
Next time, I shall not hesitate to destroy you.
Who are you?
I'm just a bunny girl who happened along!
That's all.
Goodbye now!
Who is she...?
With a forced look of wonder on his face, Itsuki watched Mikuru leave.
And what's with this pan up?
And once again, a number of scenes are omitted.
Various things happened afterwards...
...and they found themselves in battle again.
Maybe.
Th-That isn't enough to make me give up!
E-Evil alien, Yuki-san!
Quietly leave Earth at once!
You should be the one to vanish from this time.
He will fall into our hands.
He is valuable to us.
Thus, we will start by invading Earth.
I-I won't let you do that!
Even if it costs me my life!
Then we shall take your life.
Tsuruya-san!
Not you, too!
Come to your senses!
It's hard to take you seriously in that outfit...
Sorry, Mikuru.
I'm being mind-controlled, you see.
Really, I'm sorry.
That Starring Inferno wand sent out...
Now, Mikuru.
Prepare yourself.
...magic or electromagnetic waves or something...
...and turned Tsuruya-san and the other two into mind-controlled puppets.
Now Mikuru cannot fight back.
What will you do, Mikuru?
She couldn't do anything at all.
What is the matter?
Grab my hand.
Calm down.
By the way, where was Itsuki before he suddenly showed up?
I get the feeling he was accidentally on screen a while ago.
It was cold...
What were you doing in this place?
Um...
A bad person threw me into the lake, and...
(You're supposed to faint!)
Get a hold of yourself.
Normally, one would call an ambulance...
...or ask for help from one of the nearby residents...
...but this particular boy...
...decided to carry the unconscious, innocent girl...
...and where the hell are you taking her, bastard?
First of all, where did Yuki and those others disappear to without delivering the final blow?
Leaving various mysteries and inconsistencies completely unaddressed...
...this story has finally reached the midway point.
Wait.
It's only half over?
Mikuru
Asahina
The Adventures
of
This appears to be Itsuki's home.
What I really want to know is...
...why Mikuru is being carried...
...in that suggestive state of dress...
Perhaps, while she was unconscious...
...Itsuki gave Mikuru a bath!?
Yes! That has to be it!
If that's the case, every one of us...
...would feel our doubt transform into rage...
...and then into murderous intent...
...but for now, let us suppress those boiling feelings...
...and not think too much about the matter.
There is no way a person on screen...
...would act in such a realistic manner as we are imagining.
Wait.
What's this out of the blue?
If your face gets any closer...
...somebody who isn't supposed to be in this scene is going to walk over and kick your ass! Hey!
Halt.
Koizumi Itsuki.
You should not choose her.
Your power will be validated after becoming one with mine.
Whatever do you mean?
Shouldn't you first be surprised about Yuki showing up in the window?
All I can say now is that...
...you have two choices before you.
You can join me in advancing this universe towards its true form...
...or join with her and pluck out the possibilities of the future.
Itsuki was deeply troubled.
However, Nagato's...
I mean, Yuki's words were directed at Itsuki, right...
I see.
In any case, he...
No. In this scene, it would be me.
I am the key, correct?
And that key itself is unable to affect anything.
The key is merely a means to open the door.
When the door is opened, something will change.
Most likely, what will change is...
I understand, Yuki-san.
However, I currently do not have the right to decide.
I believe that it is too early to make a choice.
Can we put this matter on hold?
We still need time to think.
If you are willing to tell the whole truth, however...
...it's a different story.
The time for that will come in the near future.
However, it is certain that the time is not now.
We have a custom of considering a lack of information a critical flaw.
The potential stages will be unable to proceed in a clear fashion.
Foreshadowing tends to sound dramatic.
It was still an incomprehensible conversation...
...but Itsuki and Yuki seemed to reach some kind of mutual understanding for some reason.
Yamatsuchi Model Shop
Th-This model shop was apparently opened last year...
...after Yamatsuchi Keiji (28) escaped his life as a white-collar worker!
It coincided with his hobby, so he just went for it!
S-Sure enough, he hasn't experienced the sales growth he'd like...
Um...
They're aiming for 80% growth between this year's first term and last year's first term...
...so everyone be sure to stop by!
You want me to hold it?
Y-You mustn't fire this at people!
Settle for shooting empty cans and such!
You want me to shoot?
Well, the story's pretty much disappeared at this point...
...but here's some unexpected development!
Mikuru and Itsuki have begun living together.
A development into a newlyweds story that makes you wonder...
...what the SF battles before were about.
With arousing situations at every corner...
...perhaps this is a quick way out of the rut in the plot.
Whether or not that's the case, who is this?
Come on, Shami.
Say hi.
Is she supposed to be Itsuki's little sister?
Here!
And wasn't this cat on Yuki's shoulder just a moment ago?
I'm Shami!
Nice to meet you!
On the other hand, Yuki refuses to lose.
What's this? She's transferred into Itsuki's high school.
Using sex appeal as the new strategy...
...Yuki attempted to ensnare Itsuki.
However, is it just my imagination that it seems odd for her to use such a direct method?
Eventually, Mikuru transferred into the same high school.
We'll ignore the fact that if...
...her role was to watch over him, why didn't she sneak into the school in the first place?
Yuki and Mikuru's battle turned into that of an intense romantic comedy.
...this is just a love triangle now.
Or so you would think, but...
...it appears they had formed a truce while at school.
Or perhaps they both happened to remember their true duty.
They returned to their costume of combat waitress and alien magician...
...and continued their pedestrian battles.
Indeed, what will happen now!?
I'm the cameraman, and I haven't the slightest!
The suspense is killing me!
What a dramatic turn of events.
And so this incoherent story...
...takes an unnatural turn towards a conclusion.
Let's settle this.
The director of this film...
...probably thought that there should be an ending, regardless of what the ending was.
Though I get the feeling that it's a bit late...
At any rate...
...Yuki has challenged her to a final battle.
I see!
What did she just see?
What's up, Mikuru?
You look like you're being stalked by some old geezer.
Did Mizumushi just fire you or something?
The time has finally come!
I must go to the final battle!
That sounds amazing.
We're counting on you, Mikuru.
Earth is in your ha—
I'm finding that I have to clear things up quite often...
I'll do my best...
It's quite natural to think that Mikuru and Tsuruya-san met each other after Mikuru transferred...
...so having Tsuruya-san appear in that lake scene was obviously a production mistake...
Also, when unable to transition into the next scene...
...why not do a shot of the sky?
And so, this is finally the climax scene.
Why don't we settle this once and for all?
We do not have much time remaining.
We must end this before our lunch break is over.
I must concur on that point...
...but Itsuki-kun will definitely pick me!
I have faith in him!
Unfortunately, I have no intention of respecting his personal wishes.
I shall take his power.
In that case, why don't you go capture Itsuki right away, or am I the only one who can see that?
I won't let you!
That is why I have come from the future!
Hey, Mikuru-chan!
Fight back! Fight back!
Hey! What do you think you're—
Completely ignoring the lecturing of the teachers...
...who came running upon hearing fireworks and firecrackers...
...Mikuru was finally cornered.
It's really high...
All things must come to an end.
Accept your fate.
Yuki's finishing blow strikes Mikuru.
The effects apparently are not working, but...
...there aren't any scenes left to raise the tension...
...so please use your imagination to cover the rest!
She is in a desperate situation!
What will happen to Mikuru!?
Are you okay?
Yuki-san. Please stop this.
There is no need to consider his words.
Why don't you just take control of his mind?
(Hey, Shamisen! Stop talking!)
(Stop talking!)
From my observations...
...you possess the ability to do just that.
That was ventriloquism.
Take this, Koizumi Itsuki.
I shall take control of your will.
Very well!
No regrets.
It's over, Asahina-san.
Itsuki was awakened to his logic-defying power...
...and Yuki was sent flying into the depths of space.
Peace had returned to the world.
Thank you, Asahina Mikuru.
Thank you, Koizumi Itsuki.
All's well that ends well.
Wait, we're ending with a pan up, too?

Isn't that right, Kyon?
Are you planning on showing this to the public?
You'll all be getting a bonus once the festival prize is ours!
Maybe we should have charged viewers...
Perhaps I could go negotiate with the sponsors now.
We could recover all production costs...
Time to just forget about the festival and go to sleep somewhere.
...or even earn enough to cover the next movie!
