Toe shoes, a white tutu...

I'm going to try being the dream of girls: A prima donna in ballet!

Yeah, yeah... Idiots who dance, and idiots who watch.

If they're both idiots, you just gotta dance or you're missing out!

...that's what it is...

Sheesh, you're so rude!

Even if I don't have the skills, using my youth and beauty...

The prima donna...

...will be mine!

I'm sorry that I'm not honest. Gomen ne sunao ja nakute

I can say that in my dreams. Yume no naka nara ieru

My thoughts are about to short-circuit. Shikou kairo wa SHORT sunzen

I want to see you right now. Ima sugu aitai yo

It makes me want to cry, this moonlight. Nakitaku naru you na MOONLIGHT

And I can't make a call at midnight. Denwa mo dekinai MIDNIGHT

Because I'm naive, what should I do? Datte junjou doushiyou

My heart is a kaleidoscope. HEART wa mangekyou

Guided by the light of the moon... Tsuki no hikari ni michibikare

...we meet each other again and again. Nando mo meguri au

By counting the constellations' blinking... Seiza no matataki kazoe

...we forecast the outcome of this love. Uranau koi no yukue

We were born in the same country. Onaji kuni ni umaretano

MIRACLE ROMANCE

I believe in it. Shinjite iruno

MIRACLE ROMANCE

So wonderful...!

The latest trend... after all, that's ballet!

Let's see...

"We are holding free lessons for beginners."

"We are also looking for new members for the upcoming performance of Gizelle."

I see... that means...

Yeah!

Even we have...

...a chance at appearing...

I'm the star! ...onstage!

All right!

Let's do it!

You joined the ballet troupe?

YOU, Usagi!?

I'll be dancing in Gizelle.

Gizelle... that's the story where Gizelle dies from being betrayed...

...by her loved one, and after she turns into a spirit...

...she helps her lover that is being cursed to death...

...by other spirits, right?

And so you're dancing the role of Gizelle?

No way!

But, it's a wonderful part under the spotlight. They said it was perfect for me!

And you, too, Chibiusa?

No, they said it was impossible for kids.

That's great, Usagi...

But... it's a little strange.

To think that Usagi would be a part of such a romantic story...

Talent. It's talent.

When people who can see take a look, they know...

When people who can see take a look...

...at Usagi...?

YAMAGISHI BALLET TROUPE

Usagi, hurry!

I need to quickly put on my ballet shoes...

l-lmpossible...

It can't be...

How horrible!

Just because I got my big break...

To think someone would be jealous and do something like this...

No, I won't lose!

I will overcome this challenge, and become...

...the best prima donna in Japan... No, in the world!

Usagi...

You're mimicking last night's episode of "Star of Ballet"...

...and put the tacks in the shoes yourself, didn't you?

Was it... like this?

Or like this?

And then it goes like this...

Usagi, you've gotten a lot fatter...

You're kidding!

No good! What are you doing!?

I'm sorry!

That's not it, Kiriko.

How many times do I have to tell you? Gizelle is a spirit!

As long as you can't act the part without adding humanity to it...

...this performance is a failure.

That last part one more time!

Yes.

I see...

- She's that good, and yet... - Un, deux, trois...

- The way of performance is tough, they say. - Lighter!!

I always wanted to wear a leotard once.

And now, the prima is mine!

Now, we'll begin our beginner's class.

Kiriko, we'll go over that last part again later, so stay around.

Yes.

The two of you over there, step forward.

Okay!

I'll introduce the people who have recently joined us.

Now, go join them.

Sure!

Guys...!?

Why!?

It's not fair that only you would aim to be the prima, Usagi!

We'll join up with you.

Moderate exercise is good for the body, too.

Let's do our best!

This looks like it will be fun!

The prima will be mine!

Oh yeah, there's one other person.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you!

Nice to meet you...

These are rather rowdy-looking girls... They tire me out...

Well, let's begin.

Grab the bar.

Position one, pli�.

Stretch, and return.

Now, pli�.

Keep your back straight...

Sorry.

Put your leg up on the bar, and slide it down.

Arasgon.

- Don't bend your knees! - Okay!

I-I'm sorry...

No, I'm all right...

Amazing!

Beautiful!

She's good...

Amazing...

But it seems... rather cold...

As if she werert a creature of this world...

Gizelle...

You...

Yes?

Can you stay after the lesson for a bit?

You mean me?

Yeah.

When I look at you...

...it feels like I can get more and more images for Gizelle.

If I can be of any help, I would be glad to.

I appreciate your help.

Wait, what does that mean!?

You're going to make her dance the part of Gizelle, aren't you!?

HEY!

Wait a minute. Listen to what I have to say...

I don't want to hear it!

That's enough! I'm the same as Gizelle!

I'm fated to die after being betrayed by the one I believe!

Kiriko!

Kiriko...

Too bad!

The prima is MINE!

And Mr. Yamagishi's heart, as well...

Let's continue...

Boy, I'm tired!

Usagi, if you don't hurry up, we'll leave you behind!

Why don't we head over to the Crown?

Oh, good idea! We'll go on ahead!

Wait a minute!

I'll wait for you, so hurry up!

I heard...

Then, that person is going to play Gizelle...?

But then, what about Kiriko?

Who knows?

Kiriko and Mr. Yamagishi are always in an argument...

Usagi, this way! This way!

Hurry up! Let's go!

She's...

...the woman from earlier, right?

Now that I think about it, maybe I was being a little foolish...

But, I think anyone would be angry if the lead role...

...was taken away by the whim of the instructor.

No, we're always in an argument...

...but Mr. Yamagishi isn't one to do such a thing just on a whim.

The reason why he pulled me down from the lead...

...was because I didn't have enough skill...

Yet, to be hysterical about it... That was the worst.

But...

...you're wonderful, Miss Kiriko.

I don't know much, but Miss Kiriko, when you dance, it's warm, and kind...

It makes me feel so happy.

I think that's an amazing thing.

Thank you...

Mr. Yamagishi can't see anything else when it comes to ballet.

His passion for ballet is truly amazing.

Miss Kiriko, you like Mr. Yamagishi... don't you?

Gizelle dies and becomes a spirit because of betrayal...

...by her lover, but she still tries to save that man...

...so she really loves that man.

I wanted to be just like Gizelle...

I wanted to be of help to him, even if he didn't answer my love.

But...

Then all you need to do is to keep doing your best.

You... think so?

Yeah! I think you'll get good results as long as you do your best!

When you tell me that, Chibiusa, I feel like I can do better...

That's right... if you keep doing your best without giving up...

Maybe even you'll get a perfect score on a test, Usagi!

Yup, yup...

And you always say something you don't need to!

You're right.

I'll give it my best one more time, without giving up!

I'm sure you'll be able to do it, Miss Kiriko!

Thank you...

Miss Kiriko is thinking so much about Mr. Yamagishi and about ballet...

...why doesn't he understand?

Even if she can't be understood right away...

...I'm sure the feeling will be understood someday.

You think so...?

Sometimes there are tough challenges for people who walk down the same path.

But, the reason why they truly understand each other...

...is because they know that they only have each other...

Adults are really complicated...

I'm sure that Mr. Yamagishi is thinking about Miss Kiriko as well.

Yeah. I hope Miss Kiriko ends up happy.

I guess we'll call it a day now.

Thank you for the hard work.

Yeah...

I'm getting a pretty good feeling out of this lately.

So, I would like to have a rehearsal onstage, though it's a little early for that.

Sure!

Well, thank you for your hard work.

Mr. Yamagishi, are you thinking about Miss Kiriko?

Well...

I'm sorry to have made you feel uncomfortable as well the other day.

Oh, you don't have to worry about me...

But I do feel sorry for Miss Kiriko.

Mr. Yamagishi, you really should think more about a girl's feelings.

Girls always want people to look at them, and just them.

You understand, right?

You...

So, look at just me. And show me...

...your dreams.

Come on, please...

Oh... hello.

Good evening. I forgot my ballet shoes... It wasrt that we were peeking in...

That's right, we were just looking from behind the corner.

Idiot!

It looks like we're not wanted here... I'm sorry.

Sheesh, what an interruption!!

You guys should go home as well. It's getting late.

Yes!

Excuse us!

Oh, Miss Tsukino...

Yes?

Can you come over to the theater tomorrow?

I would like to rehearse that role tomorrow!

Sure!

All right!!

The first step to being a prima!

I'm so looking forward to tomorrow!

I'm here after all...

...though I couldn't be Gizelle...

I want to be of some help, any help...

...for Mr. Yamagishi's Gizelle!

Thank you. I really appreciate your help.

Oh, no, I'm glad that I can be of help to you.

Thanks to you, I think Kiriko's Gizelle will almost be completed.

Kiriko's Gizelle?

Arert I Gizelle?

Oh, I'm sorry...

I was wrong for not properly explaining myself...

From the beginning, I've never thought of having anyone other than Kiriko play Gizelle.

You're kidding! You tricked me and used me!

I thought that all along I was Gizelle...!

- You're so cruel! - I'm sorry.

I have another important part ready for you...

Stop it!

If it's not the prima... not the main character... There's no meaning for me!

And, I'm a much better dancer than that girl!!

I do think that technically, you are a better dancer than she is.

But, I want Kiriko to be a better ballerina in the overall view of things by playing this role.

I'm sure that Kiriko can do it!

That's right... more than a perfected spirit of Gizelle...

...an imperfect Gizelle that'll continue to grow has the power to enchant people's hearts.

It doesn't necessarily have to be a cold-hearted Gizelle!

What are you talking about!?

That's stupid. Isn't it all right if it looks pretty on the outside!?

That's not enough.

You have to be able to touch the hearts of the people who are watching...!

I want to leave something in people's hearts through ballet!

That is my dream!

Mr... Yamagishi...

Kiriko...

I'm sorry...

I didn't know your feelings at all...

I was wondering all this time...

...about how to draw out a ballet that was fit for you.

Now, I know what it is.

Sir!

What is this?!

They're completely ignoring me!

They piss me off!

How dare you make a fool of me!

I'm the one trained in fooling people!

There!

Kiriko!!

Annoying little pests, stay out of the way!

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

MOON CRISIS...

MAKE UP!

And now, a peek...

So Pegasus isn't in here.

I'm sorry, but I'll have you dead.

Hold it right there!

A villain dousing the heart passionate for art...

...and the roaring flame of passion!

For love and justice...

...pretty soldiers in sailor suits!

Sailor Moon!

Sailor Chibi Moon!

In the name of the moon...

...we'll punish you!

Sheesh! You're here again!?

I'm really in a bad mood today!!

Come here, my Remless...

The nutcracker doll, Kurumiwario!

Nutcracker doll, Kurumiwario!

It looks like we've got another strange one.

Yeah, I don't want to get too involved with them anymore...

HEY! Stop the chitchat!

Kurumiwario, I'm leaving you with the rest.

Yes!

I'll make sure to make them into wonderful primas!

I wonder if he's all right...

Well, I'm trusting you!

All right!

The conditions for a prodigal prima...

...is 90% sweat and 10% talent!

Got that!?

I'll show you an amazing trick right now!

The legs go like this.

What do you want to do...?

You want to just hurry up and do it?

Little girl! HEY! Pay attention and watch!

Yes!

Special attack - Grand fette! Un, tournan!

8, 9, 10, 11...

Amazing!

30, 31, 32!

Now, do you fear my powers?

Amazing!

You're very good!

Now, it's your turn.

Now, all of you together...

T-Together!?

Towards the Star of Ballet...

Star of Ballet!?

You will aim!!

What is this!?

Cute!

HEY! You big one over there!!

You're overweight!! The tutu is all stretched out!!

Shut up!

It really does look tight...

Leave me alone!

You fail as a prima if you can't maintain your figure!

I'll twirl you around twice as much as the others!

BEGIN!

Sailor Moon!

Turn, turn!!

Stop it!

This makes me dizzy and nauseous!

We're saved...

You don't have enough training if that much makes your head spin!

What training is this!?

Now that you've warmed up, I guess we can go on...

This is enough!

Idiots! Do you think you can be wonderful primas like that!?

Now, it's time for this!

Grand bateman!

B-Brain!?

No... Walnuts!!

Hey, don't go to sleep!

It's not that I'm sleeping!!

Lift your legs up higher!

BEGIN!

Keep your line of sight higher up!

See, you can do it when you try!

I don't have anything else to teach you!

All right!

Then, this is the end?

Go dance in hell!

Suspicious doll lost in the night's curtains, haunted by the midsummer night's dream.

I, Tuxedo Mask, cannot forgive you!

"A taxi with a vase?" (Takushi-ga kabin?)

I said, "Tuxedo Mask"! (Takishi-do kamen)

Please, Pegasus! Protect everyone's dreams!

TWINKLE YELL!

MOON GORGEOUS...

...MEDITATION!

STAGE OUT!

Kiriko! Are you all right!?

Mr. Yamagishi...

All right, me, too...

Tuxedo Mask!

Sailor Moon...

Yes?

Don't you think you need to go on a diet after all?

Although, that saved you...

If you were watching, you could have saved us sooner!

Always counting on others to help... Are you really a soldier of justice?

What was that?

In the first place, you eat too many sweet snacks!

- I don't want to hear it from you!! - Not again...

Those two really are such a fitting pair!

But, where is Usagi among all this?

Come to think, she's not up there... right?

I wonder what role she got...?

You know, she actually told me not to tell you guys, but...

So this was what he meant by the role most fit for me?

This is so horrible!!
