Original subtitles

My heart swings like a pendulum...

It flutters to the right and feels sadness to the left

It's very enchanting, but sad at the moment.

Let's keep staring at each other!

Girlhood, times of innocence, and adolescence...

Those words are commonly used.

Somebody, understand my frustrations!

Maze, you can be in a mature relationship with childlike feelings.

Yes, this passion is somewhat familiar.

I have dreams that go beyond my admiration.

That's why I call out for love, even though I'm just a young girl.

I know... I know I'm not the only one.

Everyone is feeling shy and it's unstoppable...

What makes me want to see you?

When I first met her...

...I thought she was a cute girl.

I thought she was just one of many cute girls in school.

That's what I believed for a long time...

Private Lesson

Listen!

We're going to play at the beach! And then...

Explore places in the night or do some cooking.

Yeah!

I really want to go soon! Strawberry Hall's summer school!

Nagisa-chan, you've been saying that ever since we got here.

We only have ten days till the final exams.

You heard about the schedule today, right?

Thanks a lot, you two...

I'm talking about summer school in order to get my mind off...

...of the exams.

I'm not good at French, and it's on my very first day.

Depressing...

I envy you, Tamao-chan.

Yeah.

She always gets the highest score, even if she doesn't study.

Hey, Tamao-chan. Can you teach me French?

Of course.

I'm glad.

You're at a disadvantage, so...

You're right.

Everyone else has been taking French since the first year...

...but I just started taking it, right after I transferred.

Plus if your grade is below the passing mark...

...then you'll have to take a summer course during your vacation.

What? Summer course?

Then we won't be able to go to summer school together.

That's not fair.

Let's do a good job.

What about Chiyo-chan's studies?

Chiyo-chan's?

It's one of an upperclassman's duties to help the first-year...

...roomkeeper with her studies before the exam.

There's no need to worry.

I'll look after both their studies.

Let's see...

"La" is for feminine nouns...

This "le" is for masculine nouns, right?

But that's plural, so...

What? They change if it's plural?

Umm, both the masculine and feminine change to "les" if it's plural.

No! I can't believe I'm worse than the first-year Chiyo-chan.

Makes me want to cry!

I'm sorry...

I want to die.

Ah, I know.

Why don't you take a break by going for a walk?

You've been studying for two hours without a break.

I guess I will.

It's going to be very difficult for her to pass an exam in ten days.

This can't be...

I wonder if there's a good plan.

I see. Both Spica and Le Rim have final exams as well.

They're all busy studying...

I don't like this! Why do they need to have a French language?

I hate you, French language!

Ètoile-sama!

I'm sorry.

I'm really bad with French...

I just started taking it three months ago...

...so I can't keep up with the class.

So I just...

I don't think I can pass my exam if I keep going like this...

It's that bad?

I'm trying to concentrate my studies on French...

...but I can't seem to memorize things...

Oh, I'm sorry for inconveniencing you like this.

Excuse me.

Wait...

What?

I'll teach you French.

But it's right before the exam...

One of Ètoile's jobs is to help those that are in need.

What?

Ètoile-sama?

She said she is going to help you every day until the exam date?

Yeah.

But you're supposed to help me study, Tamao-chan.

You declined her offer?

Yeah.

But Ètoile-sama is the best at French in Miator, right?

Yes, that's right.

Hey, Nagisa-chan.

Since she's willing to help you...

...why don't you let Ètoile-sama help you this time?

What?

Don't worry about me.

But...

I'll go with you and ask Ètoile-sama!

Okay?

If you don't get a passing grade, you can't go to summer school!

If you can't go to summer school, then I won't go either!

Tamao-chan...

I'm sorry...

You don't understand it at all?

No...

Not even one?

No...

I guess a second-year student's French is hard as well...

Ètoile-sama is going to do something about it, right?

Y-yes.

I'm really looking forward to going to summer school with everyone.

It's the first time going to the beach with everyone.

That's why I have to get a passing grade, no matter what...

Don't worry.

What?

Let's do a good job without being hasty.

You're not going to sleep yet?

Yeah, I'm going to study some more.

Then I'll join you too.

I'll pour some tea!

I fell asleep all too soon...

Sorry. Did I wake you?

No.

Nagisa-chan, did you study all night?

Yeah.

I mean, you and Ètoile-sama are both helping me out a great deal.

I have to do my best.

I have to do my best. Nagisa-chan.

That girl...

You're teaching French to Nagisa Aoi every night?

Yes. What about it?

I'm happy to hear this as the student council president.

She just started learning French, right?

I was beginning to worry.

There hasn't been a time when a Miator student from Strawberry Hall...

...couldn't get a passing grade.

This has nothing to do with Strawberry Hall or Miator.

I'm trying to help her since she's having some trouble.

Are you sure that's the only reason?

What else is there?

Huh?

Ètoile-sama?

Looks like you're pretty tired.

No, I'm not tired at all.

I hope you're right.

Every day until morning?

Yes. Plus...

To and from school...

Even during breaks and lunchtime...

Even when she's in the bath...

I see. That much...

I worry about that girl...

If she doesn't pass the exam, Shizuma-sama will be embarrassed...

But it looks like Shizuma-sama is having fun...

Is this correct?

That's right. You did well.

You've gotten so much better in just a week.

Really?

Three days left. Let's keep it up.

I haven't seen Shizuma-sama like that in a while.

Okay, we're done with our studies.

What? But it's still early, and tomorrow is the exam, so...

You haven't been sleeping much these days.

You should get some rest tonight.

But we don't have much time till the exam.

I have to study until the last minute.

It's not worth it if you collapse before your exam.

I wouldn't worry about that. I have lots of energy.

I see...

Anyway, I have to do whatever I can till the last minute.

I'm finally done with my French! I'm going to get some sleep!

You sound like you finished taking all your exams.

What?

Final exams just started today.

Final exams just started today. You're right.

My mind was only on the French exam so...

I have to do my best by cramming.

What?

I haven't studied for the other subjects, but...

...if I do an all-nighter, I'm sure I'll pass.

Thanks, Tamao-chan.

Anyway, I have to do my best...

If I can get through these final exams, I can go to the happy summer school.

I'm finally done with all my exams!

You did really well, Nagisa-chan.

You only slept two hours the last two nights.

It's all because you stuck by me late, every night.

Well, that's about the only thing I can do for you, Nagisa-chan.

Thanks for everything. Ah, you have a club meeting, right?

I'll just head on back now.

Okay. Get home safe.

I'll take a shortcut...

Wow...

Ètoile-sama?

Ètoile-sama...

She looks cute when she's asleep...

Maybe that was a dream...

Muroto-san...

Suzunomori-san...

Aoi-san.

Yes!

Nagisa-chan?

Tamao-chan! I did it! I passed!

Congratulations, Nagisa-chan!

You really did a fine job.

Now we can go to summer school together.

I forgot about that!

Yay! I did it, Tamao-chan!

We can go with everyone!

We can go with everyone! You two! Be quiet!

Sorry...

I have a club meeting starting now.

You can go home first, Nagisa-chan.

Okay!

I have to report this to Ètoile-sama!

I should get her something! What should I get her...

Got it!

I'll ask Chihaya-chan to see if I can bake cookies at the cooking club!

Kitchen

Kitchen Nagisa-chan?

What's going on?

Well, I have to ask you a favor.

Oh my! Nagisa-chan?

What?

Chikaru-san!

Kizuna-chan and Remon-chan too?

Hello!

What are you people doing here?

We just created a new cookie lovers' association.

That's why we came to Miator's cooking club to learn how to make them.

We're making some cookies right now. Do you want to join us?

What? Really?

Wow!

You look very happy, Nagisa-chan.

You think so?

Did something happen?

What?

Could it be...

They are for that special someone, right?

What?

What? You have a special someone?

I knew it!

Who could it be?

Who is it?

Is it someone we know?

I don't have a special someone...

I'm just kidding. Okay, Nagisa-chan?

What? That's no fun.

I thought it was serious.

Ètoile-sama...

Ètoile-sama...

I wonder where Ètoile-sama is...

Umm...

Have you seen Ètoile-sama?

No. Did Shizuma do something?

No, it's nothing.

Sorry to bother you.

Ètoile-sama...

Ouch...

What am I doing...

There's no need to find her in a hurry.

I just want to thank her...

You look very happy, Nagisa-chan.

They are for that special someone, right?

It's not like that, but...

Ètoile-sama...

Ètoile-sama!

You were waiting.

Umm... I was looking all over for you, Ètoile-sama.

I wanted to thank you, but I fell on my way here and...

What is it?

I did my best to bake them for you, but...

Thank you.

What?

I'm very happy.

Ètoile-sama...

Thank you...

Ètoile-sama!

And you passed your exams?

Yes, I did! Somehow I passed!

Is that right? I'm happy for you.

It's all because of you, Ètoile-sama! Thank you very much!

Now you can go to summer school.

Yes! I can go with my head up high!

I really like the beach!

I'll swim with everyone, do campfires and fireworks!

I can't wait!

Nagisa.

How unfortunate.

But it tastes good.

But it tastes good. Really?

Doesn't it taste good?

Yes. I think it got better after getting smashed to pieces.

You made these cookies by yourself?

My friends taught me how to make it.

They're really good.

I'm glad you liked them.

I want to drink some delicious black tea.

Shizuma...

You once helped me out, remember?

This is a small token of my appreciation. Feel free to put it in your room.

Nagisa-chan!

Nagisa-oneesama!

Tamao-oneesama told me everything.

Congratulations on passing your exams!

Thanks!

We'll celebrate tonight with a tea party!

Yes!

I see. I'm glad she passed all her exams.

As a result, I don't have to send any Miator students...

...from Strawberry Hall to take a summer course.

Thank you, Shizuma.

It wasn't because of me...

It wasn't because of me... What?

It was because of her great effort.

She really did a great job...

I feel sad. I feel sad.

That's what my heart was feeling.

This isn't good. I'm dreaming about...

...this deep guilt that is taken away from me.

Please give me eternity.

I bite my finger and wait for seduction.

My glass doll.

I want to break apart inside your arms.

You are my destiny.

Touching you gently is not enough.

I want to cry and want you to cry as well.

Kiss my tears.

Door opens quietly, and that is our secret.

Nagisa-chan, did you pack everything you need for summer school?

Let's see... bathing suit, a float, a net...

A net?

I need a harpoon to catch some fish.

I need a harpoon to catch some fish. Harpoon?

And a smoke cylinder in case of emergency...

Nagisa-chan, where do you think we're going?

Summer school, of course.

On the next episode of Strawberry Panic, "Meteor Shower."

You don't need those things in summer school.

But in my previous school...

What kind of school did you go to?
