*Paranormal Phenomenon Research Club This is the PPRC*, where I, Itou Miyabi belong.
We have a microwave so food can be warmed up as much as we like!
The club members are Urara from year 1, and vice-student union president, Miyamura.
Also, the school folly - Yamada.
Ah, you stupid!
Stop it! It'll get messy.
And this is the note on the Witches' Legend.
According to this note, there are seven witches in Suzaku High.
All off them have their own power, but the only ones we know of right now are these two,
..."the power of swapping" and "the power of captivation".
The one possessing the power of swapping is Urara.
So she is a witch.
Then let's showcase the power at once.
Kiss Miyamura!
Shiraishi,
I love you~
Forget it.
- Ah, come on! - Ouch!
If you don't, I cannot take it!
- That's right. - Then kiss Yamada!
Huh? I'm eating now.
Go on!
There's seaweed on your face.
And then, their bodies mysteriously swap.
This is the power of swapping.
And with an another kiss after~
Come on!
Do it!
Seaweed again.
...the power is then cancelled.
The power of captivation is possessed by Odagiri Nene, another vice-SU president.
If you kiss her, you will become her brainwashed captive following her around just like the children did with "Pied Piper of Hamelin".
But this is not all of the surprises yet.
This idiot Yamada is able to copy the witches' powers.
Which means that having kissed Urara earlier,
..Yamada now also has the power of swapping.
- Right? - You're getting on my nerves!
Ouch, don't be a pain Yamada!
Anyhow,
...using Yamada as a witch detector by copying powers,
... we at the PPRC,
...are on the move to find the remaining 5 witches!
How do we witch-hunt then?
What a pain~
That's it.
For a week I will have supplementary lessons and exams.
- Supplementary ? - Yeah.
If I skip it I repeat the year.
What if Urara swapped with you?
He has to do it.
Knew it.
Well then, " xh + 1/2 h² " should be obvious by now.
So, Ootsuka please continue~
Um, I don't know.
What? Alright, sit down.
Yamada then?
Huh?
Ekkuson!
That's right, it's X.
Huh?
We haven't applied a formula yet but you know already!
As expected from you after scoring all 99 on your supplementary exams, you are sharp!
Ah, well~
Let me see it.
Huh? Huh?! Please don't look!
Ooh~
Eeh~
Hey, this is impressive.
Huh?
Show me your future ones too.
Um~
Out of gratitude...thank you.
Huuh?!
Yamada and the seven witches - 3 Special thanks for "kxyz" for timing the sub to this version!!
You didn't swap?
No.
Just like with Odagiri.
That must mean that Ootsuka Meiko is a witch.
But no change in me!
If she is a witch what power does she have?
Let's see with a kiss!
After what happened with Odagiri~
Let's not do it whilst the power is unknown.
- Seaweed on your face! - Huh?
Nothing changed.
So is Ootsuka Meiko not a witch then?
Well why did Ootsuka kiss me then?
Perhaps she likes me?
Am I on a popularity spree?
Popularity?
Aah,
...forget Yamada, I want to kiss Shiraishi~
And after swapping, wear some thongs and likes~
What did you say?
Were you not talking?
I didn't either.
What the heck?
Hallucination?
Huh?
Ah, Isn't this...
Huh?
...telepathy?!
What's with you two?
Ootsuka Meiko's power is telepathy!
We've been hearing each other's thought, right?
Sounds cool, kiss me too!
More importantly,
- ...you are such a bastard! - Why?
Wanting to swap with Shiraishi to wear thongs~
Wait, stop there! Stop!
What about your popularity then?
Stop it! Hey, what now?
Well at least we know now.
Ootsuka Meiko is a witch with the power of telepathy.
Um, Yamada?
What now? Shut up Itou!
I didn't say anything.
If she is aware of her own powers then why did she kiss me?
Um, um...
What now?
Huh? What?
Yamada?
Did you call my name?
Huh?
It's me, Ootsuka.
Huh?
Can you hear me?
Ootsuka is that you? I can hear you!
I'm glad.
Truth is I have a favour to ask.
Huh?
What's this favour?
I need your strength.
Huh?
If I don't score above 80 on all upcoming supplementary exams, I won't be able to sit the med school exams.
Are you applying to med school?
My dad is a private GP. He wants me to take over the business.
Didn't see that. You want to be a doctor?
Ah, well~
I don't.
What, so you don't want to become one!
Being a doctor is a splendid occupation.
Saving people's lives would only be burdensome for me.
What you say and think are completely different, no?
Doesn't matter how I feel~
...just please help me!
How could I?
You scored 99 on all subjects in your supplementary exams, right?
So for the upcoming one you could tell me the answers via telepathy.
But that~
Please swap with me and take the supplementary exams for me! Please!
Alright.
Oops, did you get that too?
What is swapping with Shiraishi about?
Am I one of the witches?
Ah, we in the PPRC are looking for the remaining witches,
...as we want to know what happens when all witches are gathered.
Am I a witch?
Probably, since you pulled me into it.
Can't be helped. Yamada copies the witches' powers after all.
We can't find the other witches without you.
It's hot, I feel heavy.
Woof!
What?
Huh? What's up?
Did you not hear a dog's cry?
Huh? A dog?
Having to wear ridiculous clothes in this heatwave is a total turnoff.
Woof!
Did you not hear? The Dandy Voice?
It's Malon.
Huh?
My family's Pomeranian*. a breed of Spitz dog
Ooh, how cute!
A Shiba Inu* cut, right? Another breed of Spitz dog
Malon made me realise about this power.
When I took him for a walk like usual,
Hmm, aren't you cute!
Meiko,
..it's me, Malon.
Huuh?!
Since then, I can pour my heart out to Malon like I can't with others.
Malon, I cannot become a doctor.
I cannot be my brother's replacement.
I know.
I really do know how you feel.
Huh?
Since I was born 10 years ago, your mother has been forcing this Shiba Inu cut on me.
But it's cute.
But I'm not a Shiba Inu. I'm a Pomeranian.
Why not keep a Shiba Inu then?
My identity as a Pomeranian is~
As a dog, I have lived these past 10 years a fabricated life.
But you shouldn't become like me.
Malon~
Whether it's Melon or Colon I don't care,
It's Malon.
...I never kissed your dog.
Looks like communication is possible through me.
Isn't that an awesome power?!
Shall we try?
Mhm!
Rite!
Woof!
Lots of boobies~
So? Did that go through?
Oh, yeah.
Enough of your childish sexual harassment!
Why don't you have more decent things in mind.
What did he think of?
Ah~ Lots of boob~
Wait wait, shut your mouth!
I wonder if that went through to Malon?
Woof, it did!
I ignored it.
Whoa!
I got Malon's telepathy!
So childish, that it makes myself want to apologise.
I apologise.
Ah, I know!
What happens if Urara kisses Meiko?
Both are witches~
Which power will take effect?
If they swapped and Urara took the supplementary test that would settle one matter, no?
Indeed it would.
But also, Shiraishi can end up with the telepathy power.
Let's try!
Yeah!
I'm sorry, but that's~
Huh?
I only wanna kiss Yamada!
My lips belong to Yamada only!
That's what she says.
How about asking Odagiri for a favour?
Huh?
Why do I have to kiss her?
Don't say that!
I just helped you out not long ago.
Now we need your help.
OK, Odagiri?
This will make us even then.
Odagiri, don't get involved with this~
Shut up. I don't like owing people.
Much obliged.
Whoa~
Girls kissing is cool!
Odagiri, you fool! Foool!
Show us your knickers!
Cut your mens down to 1!!
So? Satisfied?
What? Looks like she didn't get it.
New discovery!
Even if two witches kiss, their powers aren't reflected.
Are we done then?
Yeah.
I don't want to be with common people,
....so I'm leaving.
Odagiri is the second,
...that I couldn't connect to my telepathy.
What? Who else?
We'll help you get a high score, so tell us.
How do you do that?
There's one way.
Rest assured Ootsuka and leave it to us.
I'm so grateful.
Share this between you.
What's this?
Watermelon cookies.
They turned out well the first time!
Ooh watermelon? How unusual, and I am starving as well~
Want some?
No, thanks.
Shiraishi, here.
I'm on a diet.
Ah, OK.
This moist texture is quite nice!
I'll try some too.
Don't look yet.
As agreed on, Yamada and Ootsuka will transfer the test questions to me and Itou,
...which then will be forwarded to Shiraishi, OK?
That's fine.
Begin!
Is everyone ready?
All good, hearing you well.
What's the question?
Question 1, um~
What the heck?
What's wrong?
Can't read this symbol!
What? Telepathy is pointless like that!
Calm down. What shape is it?
Um, it feels a bit like "swooosh"
Swoosh?
Ah is it square root?
No, not so pointy, more like a swoosh~
Enough of you. Ootsuka, do you know that symbol?
Um, a bit like Nessie's* neck. Loch Ness Monster
Nessie's neck?
Shouldn't we just skip to the next question first?
You're right.
Yamada, skip that and go to the next one!
Alright.
Question 2 - Differentiate "r" in the following function -
" V =4/3πr³ "
It's 4πr².
Fast!
The answer is "4πr²".
Next question. Function f(x) = * * - can't do the symbol keys here
What's up?
Ah, it hurts!
Sorry, my stomach is~
...4 - x...
It hurts!
Sorry Yamada, can't hear you.
Are you OK Yamada?
Hey!
All time big wave!!!
What did I eat this morning?
Sorry, this is the end!
Huh?!
Move!
Miyamura!
You too, Yamada?
- Yes! - Quick!
...x = x² + 2...
So painful!
Isn't this the cookies from yesterday?
It wasn't moist but raw!
That's the one! Oh man!
What? Was it the cookie's fault?
Shut up you two, I can't hear well.
Hey, put pause on telepathy!
My stomach is in a delicate state!
Woof!
Meiko, what have you been doing whilst I was asleep?
Be quiet Malon!
Are you not ashamed of yourselves?
Yamada and the others included!
Hey, Colon!
No, Melon!
I'm too busy to think of the exam now!
It's punishment! Straight from Heaven!
Shut up!
It's the half baked cookies' fault that your owner made!
I'm sorry~
Ah, look at the time what now?
Ah, Urara, why now~
It's faster when it's quiet.
That's the end.
Second load!
How did this happen?
Can't be helped.
It's like the period phenomenon!
Isn't it all your cookies fault?
No way~
What now?
I won't be able to apply, and become a doctor...
What will I say to mum...
But you don't want to become a doctor!
Well,
...I don't want to. I want to draw comics.
Comics?
What, so you really do want to be a comic artist!
No, you're wrong!
My pen name would be Saotome Yuria,
I'd debut as a teen,
No, I draw comics as a hobby~
I'd release a million seller,
...that is made into live-action, earn heaps of royalties,
...and live an elegant celeb life in a classy mansion.
Meiko, you are unexpectedly greedy.
So eager to rise the social ladder.
As always, what you say is the total opposite of what you think.
Aah~
What kind of comic are you drawing?
I want to see!
Nothing embarrassing. Show them!
Hey, stop it!
Ah, this~
Sorry, I kind of saw it.
But you are very good!
So cool!
Why are you so desperate about becoming a doctor?
I don't get it.
Huh?
Why don't you just tell your parents that you want to become a comic artist?
Isn't that what you prefer you silly?
As if I could tell them something like that!
Why couldn't you?
I have a brother five years older.
My brother was supposed to succeed my father.
But he left home 3 years ago.
Huh?
So I want to become his replacement and live up to mother's expectations.
I don't want her to be sad again.
In that case it is indeed hard to tell her about wanting to draw.
But isn't,
...the life your mother is thinking about actually your life perhaps?
Shiraishi,
Hm?
...whether your underwear is pink or white, Yamada ~
Hey, stop this!
The exams are finished, let's cut this telepathy off.
No, not until Meiko tells us the name of the new witch.
Ah, no way.
Oh!
Hey, what's up?
She was called in for parent assisted consultation regarding university choices.
Did you tell her you wanted to draw comics?
What, you didn't?
Do tell her during consultation!
That you don't want to become a doctor.
That is...
Are they friends?
Yeah.
I see.
With Miss Ootsuka's current grades I think she will have to give up on science.
That'd be not ideal.
We are concerned she can't keep up with class with such grades.
We must consider the influence on other students too.
What did you say?
Are you saying my Meiko is holding others back?
Um, yes, I mean no that's not it, just~
I hate this.
It doesn't matter anymore just make this stop already.
No, no ,no!
It does matter!
Why not say something?
Her timidness wins over desperation.
Say it! Your life depends on it!
But I can't!
I might not even be able to make a debut.
I guess it's impossible for me to become a comic artist.
Your thinking is super negative!
So irritating!
Wouldn't it be better to go to self-improvement seminars instead of science exam preps?
So noisy!
You are only calm because you cannot hear her!
Her hesitation is so irritating!
I'm glad I can't hear her.
But I guess I do want to draw comics.
Why can't you say that out loud?
Say it to your mother!
Wasn't your comic great?!
Hey!
Ooh, no you can't!! Yamada~
He's the man!
Yamada!
What is it Yamada?
The headmaster's calling you.
Please excuse me for a moment.
What is it?
Just one look at you and I was smitten with your mature charm.
Huh?
Am I too young for you?
What are you doing?
Is that the refusal for my love?
What's with that boy?
Mum,
Hm?
It's me, Meiko.
What does this mean?
Surprised? This is telepathy.
Has she gone mad?
No, I haven't gone mad.
As I said, telepathy.
I can read your thoughts.
Look mum, I~
Yes?
Well, I'm sorry.
I don't want to become a doctor!
What are you saying?
I'm sorry mum!
You know you are succeeding your dad's business right?
Will you not listen to how I feel?
Then what do you want to do in the future?
I~
What?!
Um, it's ~
Ah!
You forgot this. It's precious isn't it?
This!
I want to draw comics!
"It's the first time a comic made me cry. Let me read the sequels - Urara "
Looks like our feelings have reached her.
Yamada, was it?
Yes.
Sorry for hitting you earlier.
I was in a shock.
I should have controlled my feelings.
Can I have a word?
Yes.
You're cute.
Married women are scary!
So Ootsuka Meiko has changed courses.
Yes, having pulled out from medicine she is now aiming for liberal arts.
She knows her own place.
With such grades she would have never passed the medical exams.
Even if she changed her first choice of school,
...as long as it raises the number of our students going to university,
..it's a fine outcome.
Yes?
Excuse me.
For Odagiri to have such an underling is rather enviable.
Thank you.
Hey, Igarashi!
Looks like you went to the same Junior High as Yamada.
So what?
Weren't you best pals in first year?
Why are you like cats and dogs now?
None of your business.
Was that assault case the reason?
What are you digging for?
For now I can carry on with the comic as long as I promise to go to university.
Ooh!
Mum praised my drawings.
In your case, the drawings say more than you do.
Yes.
Eeew!
Melon cookies! I made sure to bake them!
It's yummy!
Thanks!
By the way who was it that you couldn't pull into your power with a kiss?
Ah, that~
Hey, Takigawa!
Can I have a sec?
Is Takigawa Noa the one from year 1?
Yes, last month when I went to the canteen to buy bread it was very crowded,
...and whilst turning around our lips touched.
I see.
But I couldn't read her mind at all.
Indeed, she is highly likely to be a witch.
Isn't Takigawa Noa that famous former child actress?
That's right! Played Annie and did commercials!
I saw her in dramas too.
Ah, this is her!
Ooh, I know her!
I wonder what power does she have?
What's your business?
Ah, just~
Don't tell me you are one of my fans?
Huh? Ah, no~
What a pity!
And I was hoping for a normal relationship with a school senior~
Then kiss me.
But you are gross.
Huh?
