Original subtitles

I woke up to the jingle-jingle of my alarm clock Jiri-jiri to narihibiku mezamashi de okosareta

The dazzling sun is in perfect form again today Gira-gira to taiyou ga kyou mo mata zekkouchou

I followed your back, rubbing my sleepy eyes Nemutai me kosutte wa kimi no senaka oikakete

I ran, stumbled and fell, and then got depressed Kakeashi de tsumazuite koronde wa ochikonda

During class, I look up to the sky Jugyouchuu sora wo mite

With my mouth open wide, and suddenly Bokari kuchi wo akeru atama ni

A paper plane hits me in the head, with a message: Meichuushita kamihikouki no MESSEJI

"Please, keep on smiling forever" "itsumo itsumo warattete"

Now, I'm by your side every day Ima kimi no sugusoba de wakachiaeru mainichi

I feel like I can overcome any hardship Donna konnan datte tobikoerareru

Together, we'll keep heading toward tomorrow Ashita wo futari de mukaerareru you ni ne

Even when it's cloudy, we'll smile in happy colors, Kumorizora no hi datte shiawase iro de warau kara

Just like the sparkling sun Pika-pika no taiyou no you ni

Oh, you're...

...the polka-dotted panties girl.

You're that perverted groper boy!

Mikan, you idiot.

Of all people, you're picking a fight with the worst possible guy.

Who do you think you are, acting so high and mighty?

Huh? Huh? Wha?

Hey, transfer student!

Just what do you think you're doing, mouthing off like that to Natsume?

M... My body...

...is being lifted up into the air?!

No Alice is Going to Defeat Me *

No Alice is Going to Defeat Me * No Alice is going to defeat me!

No Alice is Going to Defeat Me *

S... Stop it, everyone!

How could you do such a thing to someone who can't defend herself?!

Make him stop, Natsume! Alices shouldn't be used for something like this!

Oh, there's no need to stop.

Shouda!

I kept quiet and watched because I thought she was an Alice, but what's with this girl?

She even called Natsume and Ruka idiots.

They're being too nice to her, if you ask me.

That's the President of our fan club for you!

She's right!

Even if everyone else forgives her, as members of the Natsume and Ruka Fan Club, we won't !

Let her down.

Yes, Natsume.

That kindness Natsume just showed is also part of his charm!

I couldn't agree more with what our Club Presidentjust said!

Mikan! Are you all right?

Hey, Polka-dots.

What's your Alice?

Wh...

What the...?

What's with these kids?

And him...?

Bleh! I'm not telling you anything!

Why you...!

Geez! Let me down!

I said let me down!

Stop! You shouldn't use your Alice like this! I said let me down!

Stop! You shouldn't use your Alice like this!

You could even get expelled! Geez! Get me down! Let me go!

Expelled? Fine by me! Geez! Get me down! Let me go!

I'd be happy to leave this damn school! Geez! Get me down! Let me go!

I'd be happy to leave this damn school!

But we were all gathered at this school to contribute to society and give people happiness!

You sure are gullible, aren't you?

All the adults want to do is use our powers for themselves!

You know it's the truth.

But I won't ever use my Alice to bully people!

Stupid goody-two-shoes. Get lost!

If you don't like what you're seeing, then use your Alice to save her!

Or can't you use it without the teachers' permission?

Hey, you! Use your Alice and save yourself!

"Come to think of it, I wonder what kind of Alice I have?"

"Mr. Narumi said I'm an Alice, but..."

"...I don't feel like I have any special powers."

"Am I really an Alice?"

...is what she's thinking.

This boy... ...is what she's thinking.

This boy...

"This boy..."

He's reading my mind!

"He's reading my mind." He's reading my mind!

"He's reading my mind."

Stop it!

O-Oww...

Unbelievable! She doesn't even know what her own Alice is?

What's a girl like her doing at this academy, anyway?

It doesn't make any sense.

I've never heard of such a thing!

Maybe this girl faked being an Alice, and weaseled her way into the school?

I bet she used some kind of magic trick or something.

Wha-?! That's not true!

Mr. Narumi told me I'm an Alice!

Oh? Then, where's the proof?

Proof?

Come on. Hurry up!

First of all, what's with all of you, going on and on about Alices?!

Are Alices that...

Yes, we are that great!

We Alices are the elite, who have been recognized by the government and are under its protection!

You don't seem to know anything, so I'll explain it to you.

Alices have made great contributions to politics, the arts, academics,

and various other fields throughout history.

It's no exaggeration to say that the specialists in this country are almost all Alices.

The government keeps the existence of Alices a top secret, even to this day.

That's why the students here are only allowed to have limited contact with the outside world.

Why do you think that is?

If people find out that geniuses, prodigies, and all those at the top of their fields are Alices,

Genius Prodigy If people find out that geniuses, prodigies, and all those at the top of their fields are Alices,

Ordinary Person ordinary people like you will become discouraged from trying to achieve anything.

Ordinary Person

That's why, in normal schools,

they can say, " you can do it!" or " if you work hard, the results will follow!" It's all lies.

But that's how they raise you to become a competent cog, for our benefit.

No way...

People without Alices are either parasites who swarm around Alices so they can benefit from us,

or worker ants, who act as the Alice's arms and legs.

One, two. One, two. One, two. or worker ants, who act as the Alice's arms and legs.

One, two. One, two. One, two. Either way, they're just there to prove how superior Alices are.

One, two. One, two. One, two. We're the chosen ones.

One, two. One, two. One, two.

One, two. One, two. One, two. Unlike normal people, who are expendable and can be easily replaced, we're in a league of our own.

Just because you're an Alice doesn't mean you're better! That's nonsense!

You're the one who's talking nonsense!

I'm sure it must have been tough for lmai.

Having to mingle with average people like you at her last school.

What?

Hotaru...

You're not...

You're not like them, right?

You don't think about the people in our village and me like that...

...right?

Hey, Hotaru...!

If you can't show us proof, you're practically admitting you're not an Alice.

Hurry up and leave our school already. How shameless!

lmai has been recognized as an Alice, and is finally able to associate with people on her level.

You're nothing but a bother to her, and everyone else here.

Hotaru...

Say something...

Am I really a bother to you?

Hotaru...

Why aren't you saying anything?

Hey, are you listening?!

No.

Eh?

I'm not leaving.

I'm an Alice.

I may not have supernatural powers, but I'm an Alice, too!

That's what Mr. Narumi told me.

Huh?

I trust his judgment.

I'm certain that I'm an Alice.

Stop claiming you are when you can't even prove it!

But unlike you, I don't consider Alices to be above those who aren't .

The only impressive thing you have compared to non-Alices...

...is that rotten character of yours, you morons!

So, you can use your Alice!

But you don't know how to live a fulfilling life because you don't know how to work for it!

Go get those moronic brains replaced somewhere!

Bimbo! Bimbo! Bimbo!

You're nothing without your Alice! You're just shallow people, desperately clinging to your Alice!

Why you...!

You don't know when to shut up, do you?

Mikan!

Horse!

lmai?!

Keep your hands off her.

The only one allowed to make this dummy cry is me.

Why you...!

Deer!

There goes my honor student award, thanks to you.

And there goes all the effort I made to hold myself back all those times, too.

Hotaru!

Before he starts making a scene, I'm going to the faculty office and turning myself in.

That'll be one rabbit each.

One rabbit?

Ah, Mikan.

You can't use regular money here.

This coin is one rabbit.

It's worth about a hundred yen.

I don't have any of those, though.

Of course you don't , you're a new student.

This'll be my treat.

Thank you. Come again.

Thanks!

So how do you get those coins?

You don't have to worry about that. The school gives them to you.

But the amount differs depending on your grades.

I've never heard of a school giving kids money!

Alice Academy really is amazing, isn't it?

Oh, that's right!

I think lmai might have gone to her research lab.

Research lab?

I wonder if Hotaru got in a lot of trouble?

She saved you from getting bullied, so I doubt they'll be angry with her.

So Hotaru really does care about me, after all...!

Mikan...

This is it.

Here?

Hello. Who are you?

Me?

I'm Hotaru's best friend, Mikan.

Searching Researcher lmai's friends list.

Friends list search complete.

Entry " Mikan" not found.

What? That can't be!

Visitors who are not on the list should leave immediately.

If you do not, the security department will be notified.

Hold on. What about Yuu Tobita?

Searching Researcher lmai's friends list.

Friend list search complete.

Entry " Yuu Tobita" found.

Friend rank: A.

Researcher lmai is not here, but please make yourself at home until she returns.

How am I not on her list?!

I'm sure she wasn't expecting you to transfer here, so she probably hasn't registered you yet!

She's an elementary school student with her own research lab...

My Hotaru is really amazing, isn't she?

Technical type Alices are highly regarded, even by companies.

That's why they're given their own research labs.

What's Hotaru's Alice?

lmai's Alice is the Invention Alice.

Come to think of it, she always used to make weird things.

So it was because of her Alice!

lmai was really aiming for the honor student award, so I'm sure she's disappointed.

Right, right. What is that, by the way?

It's an award given to a student with good grades.

You get a one-month free meal ticket to Central Town and permission to go home.

Permission to go home?

I remember lmai saying that she wanted to go back to the countryside...

...to see her parents and best friend again.

The best friend she was talking about was you, wasn't it, Mikan?

Hotaru... So that's why...

I just assumed she'd forgotten about me...

Mikan...

Technical Type Private Research Lab for Student Use Hotaru Imai

This is lmai's research lab.

There she is!

Hotaru!

Eh? A robot?!

Welcome.

Girl who's not on my friends list, that'll be ten rabbits for the entrance fee.

It's charging me?

It's okay, Mikan. I'll spot you.

Come again!

Looks like her greedy personality hasn't changed.

And it looks like her thought process hasn't changed either.

Mikan!

What's wrong with that thing?!

It's a pelican robot that eats and recycles trash.

Do I look like trash to you?!

Her ideas might be unique, but these types of inventions are highly sought after by companies.

Oh, really? Something like this?

Foreign companies want them too, so as the National Alice Academy,

the government is doing their best to keep us a secret.

Is that why the Alice Academy students aren't allowed to have contact with the outside world?

Yeah, that's one of the reasons, but...

...the academy students are still growing, so not everyone can fully control their Alice yet.

That unstable phase is considered hazardous to people, Alices and non-Alices alike.

Yeah, but I could never handle not being able to see or call my family and friends.

It's amazing Hotaru can deal with it.

But there were some students who couldn't accept those strict school rules...

Apparently, it led to a big dispute between the school and the students a long time ago.

What about now?

On the surface everything is peaceful, but...

...I heard a rumor that those old students continue to take action, even though they've left the school.

I see.

Ah, it's me!

She even made a robot of me!

Hotaru sure has a cute side to her.

Hey, you. Stop touching things without permission. That is a stress relief robot.

So that's it! lmai mentioned that she made a robot to eliminate bullying.

Whatever you do to this robot, it will always keep on smiling.

Read the warning label carefully, and you are welcome to treat it however you like.

One session is ten rabbits.

She was making money off my robot?

It's a bit expensive, but...

I have just ripped you off for ten rabbits.

What?! Give us back our money!

If you want it back, you will have to take it back by force, you stupid, moronic pervert.

Who are you calling a pervert? You tick me off!

I didn't feel a thing. Better try harder than that.

What did you say?!

Then how about...

...this!

I've had so many robots tick me off today!

How do you like that?!

lmai! How did it go?

Session complete. One session is ten rabbits.

Hotaru! What's the deal with this robot?! Session complete. One session is ten rabbits.

An additional fee is required if you want to continue. The additional fee is...

Now that the real you is here, I'll scrap this robot.

You don't have to scrap it...

But you must have been lonely here, right?

I'm sorry you won't be able to visit home because of me.

I'd rather you apologize to my parents whom I won't be able to visit.

But, you coming to see me on your own was completely unexpected.

Since you spared me the trouble of visiting you, I'll let it slide just this once.

Hotaru!

Just so you know, you still owe me for that free meal ticket. Hotaru!

Just so you know, you still owe me for that free meal ticket.

Oh, never mind that!

Hotaru! I love, love, love you!

Stay away, snot girl. Hotaru! I love, love, love you!

Stay away, snot girl.

Huh? What about Mikan?

She doesn't even know what her Alice is.

What's more, she made fun of people who are Alices.

Oh?

Please tell us!

Is that transfer student really an Alice?

Yeah... probably.

"Probably?"

How could you let a girl like her enroll here based on " probably?!"

That's why her enrollment is temporary.

Her enrollment is temporary?

Then what's the deciding factor for her to be enrolled officially?

This academy has an unusual amount of events.

Well, you see... It's ... This academy has an unusual amount of events.

A cultural festival that lasts throughout the year is like a dream!

Hey, Polka-dots.

I heard that if you don't get along with this class within a week, you can't officially enroll here.

How does he know?!

Well, at the rate you're going, you definitely won't be able to enroll.

I'm still willing to give you a chance.

But only if you're a real Alice.

See the Northern Woods over there?

If you go into that forest and come back safely, I'll accept that you have an Alice.

The Northern Woods?

You're asking the impossible!

lmpossible?

That forest is really dangerous, so we're not allowed to enter-

No one's forcing you to go. That forest is really dangerous, so we're not allowed to enter-

No one's forcing you to go.

If you don't want to do it, just pack up and leave the academy.

But that's ...

Are you going to do it or not?

I'll do it!

I see, Mikan.

Well, I'm sure it's no big deal...

...probably.

Oh, here's a farewell gift.

Since you're new around here, I'll be generous and let you take a friend with you as a guide.

Good luck.

Ah, Hotaru!

Well, that's settled then.

"Grandpa, it's a test of courage."

"But I'm not afraid of ghosts, so please don't worry."

"Just like you told me, Grandpa, if I'm not afraid of them, they shouldn't appear."

Go to Heaven! Go to Heaven! Go to Heaven! Go to Heaven! Go to Heaven! Go to Heaven!

Mikan! Go to Heaven! Go to Heaven! Go to Heaven! Go to Heaven! Go to Heaven! Go to Heaven!

Mikan, are you all right?

Class Rep...

I can't let you go alone. I'll go with you!

Really?

I'm actually really afraid of ghosts!

Ghosts?

I've never heard of ghosts appearing in the Northern Woods.

Eh? This isn't a haunted path to test my courage?

No, but...

...supposedly a monster that's much scarier than a ghost lurks in the forest.

A monster?!

Yeah.

At any rate, we need to get back before it gets dark.

Let's hurry.

That's where the Northern Woods begin.

All right!

It's muddy and slippery, so watch your step.

Huh?!

Mikan!

We're sinking!

It's a bottomless swamp!

Someone save us!

What is... this?

Push!

Push! Rescue?

Push!

Push! It even has a button.

It even has a button.

What does it mean by " fifty rabbits?"

Let's just push it and see what happens.

Hotaru!

You came because you were worried about me, after all!

The rescue fee is fifty rabbits.

You don't have any money, so I'll have you pay me back through physical labor.

Whatever you want!

As long as you're with me, I'm not afraid of anything!

I never said I'm going with you.

I'm not letting you go!

Hands off, don't hug me, and stop getting dirt on me.

I wonder if it's started already? Her true entrance exam.

I thought her entrance exam was to fit in with the class?

That's what I told her, but her true assignment is based on...

...how she'll approach and handle that problem child, Natsume.

If Natsume gave her a task, that might as well be her entrance exam.

Natsume is a smart kid, so he probably senses something about her.

I had a hunch he'd do something like this to evaluate her.

And you wonder why your methods make Natsume hate you.

But Naru...

...don't you think this is a bit too dangerous?

Sending an Alice candidate into the Northern Woods, just to screen her...

If something were to happen...

It'll be fine.

We're ready to mobilize at a moment's notice if she lands in real danger.

Plus, this isn'tjust any " screening."

To this school... and especially to Natsume...

...she may become the key that governs the course of the future.

Naru, are you really...?

Well, who knows what will happen?

So, this is the Northern Woods?

Mikan, let's be careful in here, okay?

They say there are a lot of strange things in these woods.

A lot of strange things?

Umm, like...

For instance, there's a strange thing right over there.

A teddy bear?

You laughed out in a loud, loud voice Kimi ga ookkina ookkina koe de warattara

Then I copied you, and we laughed together Sugu ni manekko issho ni waratta ne

We walk along this road hand in hand Te wo tsunaide aruita michi

Let's run a race today, you and me Kyou wa futari de kakekkoshiyou

The world shines brightly when we're together Kimi to iru to donna sekai mo akaruku kagayaku yo

As I stand here close to you, Sonna kimi no tonari ni iru

I gather all the tiny moments of happiness Konna chiccha na shiawase wo

And as I embrace them, one by one... Hitotsu hitotsu dakishime nagara

...they turn into smiles Egao ni kaeru yo

Like the rainbow we passed while riding our bikes, Jitensha de kugurinuketa ano niji no you ni

Let's keep these happy colors forever HAPPII na iro de iyou itsumademo

I had no idea the Northern Woods would be such a frightening place!

This time, I might not make it out okay in the end...

But I must have an Alice like everyone else!

I must have one... right?

This is My Alice *
