This place is Hatsunejima.

The island’s precise location is unknown…

The island’s population: unknown.

A mysterious island with no detailed information available.

Some say the island is Atlantis, which had sunk deep into the ocean.

Some say it’s like the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, floating in the sky…

An island that spawns no shortage of stories in the imagination.

While its actual properties are unknown, let’s just say it’s a strange island.

This story is the crystallization

of the blood and sweat of the girls living on Hatsunejima.

Welcome!

This secret garden is the residence of

the electronic fallen angels at the cutting edge of technology,

ruled by the demon known as science.

Miharu, who are you talking to?

Oh, no one. I was just setting the mood.

Still, your house sure is strange.

Don’t you agree, Arisu?

It’s something of a… lovely room.

It’s more of a laboratory than a room.

My room’s okay,

but it’s not all that interesting. So I thought this place might be better.

Do you like it?

The jury’s still out. There are so many pretty switches and lights.

It’s incredible.

This switch is truly beautiful…

A… ri… su…

But the switch was so pretty… I’m sorry.

It’s okay. I did the same thing when I got here.

With so many switches around, you just can’t not press one.

Yes, there certainly are a lot of switches.

I used to have a habit of pressing switches,

but I ran into trouble with the self-destruct switch.

Eh, there’s something like that?

Wait, what kind of laboratory would have that kind of switch?!

This switch… is pretty.

The light of the explosion is also pretty.

Wow, you’re so calm about this, Arisu.

It’s amazing, Aishia. Have you two chosen a place to take cover?

I’m not sure whether to feel surprised or scared that you feel that way.

By the way, what kind of research goes on here, Miharu?

I’m not really sure of the details, myself.

But there sure are a lot of meters and switches set up.

There’s so many. How do you know which is which?

For starters, that switch controls the self-destruct device!

Pretty switch…

So that explosion before was really caused by a self-destruct switch?

I’ve triggered it by mistake before.

By mistake?! What kind of lab needs a self-destruct device, anyway?

There’s all kinds of things that need to be kept secret.

Arisu, you can NOT press that switch.

Moving on, this is the “errant bombing” switch!

Pretty switch…

E-Errant bombing? Can a switch do that?

And why would you have something like that here?

All for the sake of research!

Then again, maybe not.

Aishia, umm…

No! You mustn’t press that!

O-Okay.

Now now, she didn’t have any ill intentions.

I’d take ill intentions over random impulses any day.

Arisu! Didn’t I tell you not to press that?!

I wasn’t trying to press it.

Don’t you have anything safer around here?

Ah, yes I do! Like this.

It seems like a plain, ordinary meter, but…

It’s actually very unusual.

The right one’s a speedometer, and the left one’s an altimeter.

That’s unusual indeed. I’ll take a picture to show to Junichi.

It’s truly pretty…

It’s been awhile since I’ve seen an altimeter.

In fact, I’m not even sure how long it’s been.

If I press this, something might happen.

…maybe that one was colored…

Wait, somebody stop me!

You want us to stop you?

There’s no way I’ve ever seen an altimeter!

At least not before today. But why have one in a research lab?

Does this place fly? Or does it launch rockets?

What kind of research do they DO here?!?

Well, I don’t really know the details…

For all I know, this lab might really be able to fly.

No, there’s no way it would. Isn’t there anything good in here?

It might fly.

Nothing will happen if you press a meter.

Not if I don’t try it. Besides, I’ve finally come to a friend’s room,

so I want a memory of it.

That’s right. Since you’re here, let’s have fun!

I’m on board with that idea,

but how did a little trip to Miharu’s house wind up like this?

My house is a normal house with nothing strange about it.

I suppose I do have an exact-proportioned 1:1 Nemu-senpai doll,

a piece of that fallen meteorite, some bio-experiment test tubes…

Yeah, it’s normal.

More like abnormal!

It sounds plenty unusual and strange to me!

Does it? I feel a little more self-confident now.

As a token of my thanks, do you want to eat this new experimental banana?

That could be interesting.

I’m very interested. Let’s eat it.

Ta-dah! This is it!

It just looks like a normal banana on the outside.

Smells fine.

It’s an experimental banana that will fill you up with just a little bite.

That sounds like normal research.

Is it safe to eat?

It’s perfectly safe. Watch me!

What did I tell you? I’m just fine!

No, you’re nowhere near “fine”!

It seems edible.

Did you not see Miharu suddenly getting fat just now?!

Check me out! My stomach’s full to the brim!

No, Miharu, don’t move around so much!

I’m sorry…

Can’t we get you back to your normal weight, Miharu?

Good question. If I don’t slim back down, what’ll become of me?

You’ll become something, at least…

Miharu wants her old petite figure back!!

Miharu, calm down! That’s the first step!

Okay. I’m sorry ~de gowasu.

~de gowasu: A variant of “to be.” Associated with the speech of sumo wrestlers.

Did she just say… “gowasu”?

Don’t tell me Miharu’s going to take up wrestling or something?

No~ I don’t want that ~de gowasu.

No ~de gowasu…

We have to help Miharu, fast!

Exercise might solve the problem.

We don’t have time for that!

Maybe there’s a clue somewhere in this lab!

Huh? Why won’t this door open?

Aishia, what about this?

Isn’t that the altimeter?

What? Altitude, 100 meters?

This room is flying!

Was it because Arisu pressed the meter before?

Why would pressing a meter make us fly?

We have to do something soon, or else!

…~de gowasu.

Let’s start by getting back to solid ground.

These things are precision instruments, so if I do this…

No, we have to hurry!

Arisu, help me!

Arisu! Anything but the self-destruct switch!

Sorry.
