Original subtitles

I'm Kazuki Shikimori and I'm seventeen years old.

I attend Aoi Campus, a school that is full of nothing but first-class magicians,

but I'm a less than ordinary, worthless, failure of a man

that girls don't even look at.

All of the sudden,

three beautiful girls came calling on a guy like me.

But what their target was...

my genes!

Mr. Shikimori.

Yes?

You know what this means, right?

Yes! Of course!

What does it mean?

Kazuki, you've forgotten something as important as this?

There are only four days left until the Aoi Fest! Right?

The Aoi Fest? You were talking about the school festival?

Yes.

That's right.

I'm looking forward to enjoying the Aoi Fest together with you, Kazuki!

But there are only four days left,

and our class is the only one that hasn't even decided what to do yet.

Boo!

Good morning, Kazuki!

Yamase...

I think that it's unlikely, but you haven't used your magic since then, have you?

I have... four times.

You're down to half, then! What's going to become of you?

One of those times was my fault.

If you're going to blame someone, then blame me.

You're the same as always. You're so kind to girls.

Just so you know, I didn't ask him to use his magic,

he just did on his own.

I know.

You haven't changed, have you, Kazuki?

So who is this, Kazuki?

It couldn't be...

That's not it! You see...

Kazuki, who's this?

Nice to meet you. I'm Yuna, Kazuki's wife.

Wife?!

That's amazing! Kazuki, exactly when did you get married?

That's not it!

I'm his wife! Excuse me, but who are you?

I'm Chihaya Yamase, from Class 2-F.

And what kind of relationship do you have with Kazuki?

Even if you ask that...

Kazuki, what should I say?

We're childhood friends.

Childhood friends? Really?

Really! We're just plain old childhood friends.

Right, Yamase?

Right, right, it's just as Kazuki says.

I'm sorry, I didn't know that he had a childhood friend like you, Miss Yamase.

He hasn't introduced us to any of his friends at all, childhood or otherwise.

I'm someone he doesn't want to introduce, after all.

That's not true at all.

Really?

When you spotted me, you would always run and hide.

You hate your meddlesome friend, right?

Yamase...

is your aim this worthless man's genes too?

Genes?

Hey, Elizabeth, would you mind moving?

I can't do that! I have to work too.

Right! At least enough to cover her rent.

Please give me your genes, Kazuki!

Kuriko! Please get away from me!

You sure are popular, Kazuki.

That's not it, though...

If you want his genes too, you won't get them unless you hurry.

Umm...

I have something I want to discuss with Kazuki, that's all.

Discuss?

Yes!

What?!

So I guess it's no go...

Class F is full of exemplary kids with excellent grades.

They're a class that are called the pride of Aoi Campus,

and are nothing but little goody-two-shoes!

They're a bunch of suck ups and yes men that I just don't like.

You might say that they're our rivals! A thorn in our side!

They're sure to have some ulterior motive!

Who could hold a play with those kinds of guys?

Shikimori, since when have you been class F's agent?

Are you planning on working with class F to eliminate us from the Aoi Campus?

That's not it! I just...

What are you getting out of this, Shikimori?

If you're honest with us, we can still forgive you.

I'm telling you...

Why not? There's only four days left,

but our class is the only one that hasn't decided what we're going to put on.

Jeez, what an irresponsible homeroom teacher.

You'd forgotten about it too.

Sorry, sorry... I'm crazy about this new game.

This one's hard.

Because of that, I've stayed up late for several days.

For you to have forgotten about the Aoi Fest because of that.

What kind of homeroom teacher are you?

Shikimori, this is an unusually proactive stance for you to take, but...

We reject it!

But...

Put on a joint production with class B and class F?

The script is finished. I want you to ask everyone in class B.

But...

All you have to do is talk to them, so please try!

We want to do it together, no matter what. Please, Kazuki!

But I...

Kazuki...

I'm in favor of it.

Let's put on a play with class F!

Yuna...

Let's do our best, Kazuki!

Yuna?!

What do we do?

Even if you ask that...

I am completely against it!

Well, why not? You might make some money too.

Cash...

Well, that's true...

Class F will handle the preparation costs, and we'll supervise.

And class B can obtain the admission fees by organizing things.

Let's do it!

I'm all right with doing it, but the plot is weak.

A fantasy story, where a hero, who's lost his self-confidence,

obtains the help of a princess and defeats a monster...

These days, doing something like this won't appeal to anyone.

I think that it's a good story.

All right, it's decided!

We, the students of class B, will help class F with all of our might,

and make this wonderful play into a moving masterpiece!

Shikimori, tell class F. We willingly accept this proposal.

However, we will not perform. We'll work behind the scenes.

Those are our conditions.

And Shikimori, I'm appointing you to be our negotiator and liaison with class F.

Me?

You're the one who brought this up.

Take responsibility.

All right then, go and tell class F our conditions, quickly!

There are only four days left!

Gotcha.

Oh, Kazuki!

Please wait!

Listen up, everyone! I have a good idea...

What is it?

Okay, listen...

Got the item...

Thank you, Kazuki!

Well...

Ahem, Kazuki.

Let's put on a great show!

Yeah, let's.

I'll help too.

Thank you, Miss Miyama.

Tomorrow's the big day, isn't it?

It's all thanks to you, Kazuki. Thanks.

No it's not. It's because you worked so hard, Yamase.

Ahem. You're too close to each other.

You're so lucky, being childhood friends with him.

Really?

I'm jealous. You've always been with Kazuki, Miss Yamase.

There are a lot of things that I don't know about Kazuki that you do.

I wonder... I...

Let's hurry up and go home. Tomorrow's the big day, after all.

Bye!

Boo!

Hey, there are guests already lining up!

Do you think this is enough chairs?

Okay!

The set's incredible!

All right, just like that... okay, then.

Good work!

We're going to be letting the guests in soon!

Don't be...

Don't be...

Don't be so nervous!

I was going to say that!

Miss Miyama, please take care of the rest!

Okay!

Nakamaru, it's almost time...

Huh? Where did everyone...

Okay, then, let the guests in!

The show is about to start.

Do your best.

Let's do our best!

In the third act, Kimura, please take care of the adlib in front of the rocky area.

I wonder where Nakamaru and the others went.

Okay!

I'm going to go look for them.

I'm going to go look for them.

It's all right, Kazuki! We'll take care of things backstage, somehow!

That won't do. I'll be back!

It's time!

Kazuki...

Let's open the curtains.

Well, listen before you go, Shikimori.

This is also my duty as a member of the Biology Club.

Just for you, I will show it to you with special care...

Sorry, I'm kind of in a hurry right now!

Shikimori...

Oh... Dark Lord! Your power cannot continue for long!

When this child grows up, she will surely defeat you!

Dark Lord!

Kazuki!

It is the school festival, after all, so come and take a break with me!

And use your genes...

Please let go of me, Kuriko!

I'm sorry!

Lady Kuriko!

How about stopping by? I'll make it free, especially for you...

How about stopping by? I'll make it free, especially for you...

I'll stop by later!

I'll stop by later!

Morisaki, what are you doing?

"What are you doing?", what kind of greeting is that?

We, the students of class 2-B, are cooperating to participate in the Aoi Fest.

Can't you tell that by looking?

You guys... The play is going to start!

That's class F's business. It has nothing to do with us.

Nothing?

But you said you'd help, you said you'd do it together with them, didn't you?

Don't get us wrong.

You're the only one who said that. We were all participating on our own.

Class F is putting on the play by themselves. We had nothing to do with it from the beginning.

You can't...

It's not written anywhere on here that class B and class F are doing this together.

Even if the play fails, we're not to blame.

It's class F's fault.

And with this, the model students in class F are done for.

A failure at the Aoi Fest will echo loudly, even in their school records.

Yamase was working really hard!

What about it? They can take care of it, even without us.

Evil...

Now is your chance! Now, unsheathe your sword...

and cut the dark lord to pieces...

What an elaborate play.

Why is there a real summoned beast here?

Oh no!

Monster! Disappear!

The magic seems real too.

It doesn't seem real, it is real.

Yamase!

Sir Hero, you've arrived!

But you must not use your power.

Just watch, I will defeat this monster by myself.

What are you talking about, Yamase?

Kazuki, Miss Yamase is continuing the play.

Please help her!

That's impossible! There's no way I could do that!

I'll look at the script and say the lines, so please say them as I do.

I can't do it. It's impossible, I'm telling you...

It's all right, you can do it! After all, you're a hero!

It's just that you've forgotten that right now.

Yamase...

Things seem to be hopping over there.

Do you think it'll be okay?

Don't worry. It'll definitely be all right.

And what about that summoned beast?

It is a level nine summoned beast, after all...

All of the students of class F, with their excellent grades, will exterminate it for us.

I wanted to stay by your side until you awakened.

But... I...

Miss Yamase's lines aren't anywhere in here!

Run, Yamase! I'll take care of things here.

You mustn't use your magic!

I can handle a monster like this by myself!

A...

Amazing...

See? I won't let you use your magic.

Yamase...

Hero, please don't forget, your magic is special.

It can't be!

You mustn't use it!

Thank you, hero.

I said that you mustn't use your magic, didn't I?

Dummy...

Yamase...

Thank you, Mr. Greatest Magician in the World!

He ended up using it again, didn't he?

Yes...

Running an unauthorized business is strictly forbidden by the student council, and yet...

As punishment for running a cafe without permission,

all of you are ordered to do the clean up of the school festival!

I'm sorry about everyone in class B, Yamase.

It's all right. I was glad to be able to do it together with you.

Thank you, Kazuki.

I didn't do anything.

Umm, Chihaya?

Yes?

Your lines from before weren't written anywhere.

Oh, those were me adlibbing.

I said them off the top of my head.

Now then, I'm going home.

Oh, you're not going to dance at the folk dance?

No, because I'm going home by myself.

What? Why?

Because if I dance with you, I'll end up not wanting to let you go.

Yuna.

Yes?

Please take care of Kazuki.

Goodbye...

Mr. Greatest Magician in the World.

Three days later, I found out that Yamase had gone and transferred to another school.

We met, didn't we?

I never knew that Kazuki had a cute childhood friend like that.

No kidding.

I can't believe that she's going to be a one-shot character, either.

I feel a little uneasy, but I trust Kazuki!

The next episode of Maburaho is "Gone and Done It"

Yuna, you mustn't rush!
