No... The thrusters won't work...

Everyone's gone...

I'm scared...!

I'm scared...

Being all alone is terrifying...!

"Aries' Apartment Day before leaving for camp"

Aries!

Are you ready for tomorrow?

Yep! Everything is perfectly packed!

Hmm?

What's this?

Whoa! My passport! I forgot to pack it!

I'll ask just one more time...

Aries, are you sure you're ready for tomorrow?

Uh, of course!

How about you, Mom? Will you be okay alone?

I'm going to be gone for five whole days...

Don't worry, just enjoy yourself.

Remind me, where is the camp site?

It's Planet McPa!

"Mousanish Spaceport Day of departure"

Flight 77 departing from Mousanish will be leaving at 1430 hours...

So excited...

So excited...!

Planet...

...Camp!

Oh?

Whoa!

I'm so sorry!

You're quite excited, aren't you, young lady?

Oh, thank you!

Planet Camp, did you say? Are you from Caird High?

Hmm?

I went, too. A long time ago.

Really? Was it Planet McPa?

Yes.

Five days, students only.

It was my very first space trip, so it was scary at first.

But once I got to know the rest of my team,

it was more fun than I could have imagined.

Go enjoy yourself. But do be careful-- you seem a bit clumsy.

Ha, ha... I'm not clumsy, sir.

I'm a woman!

--Huh? --Huh?

A thief, as if on cue!

What?!

Uh, umm...

-Stop! Beef!

--You mean "thief"! --Stop! Beef!

Huh? What an idiot.

He can't catch up on foot...

Oh, wow, he's fast!

Oh, anti-gravity shoes!

Take this!

Un... Timut... Daibamomo!

Say what?!

Argh!

"Untimut Daibamomo!!"

Oh, no, wait!

I was trying to say, "Ultimate Dive Bomb."

Dang, why did I have to come up with such a mouthful of a move name...

Are you okay?

Here, your bag.

Thank you very much. You got it back for me.

Mr. Untimut Daibamomo!

That's not my name!

Can that possibly be a person's name?!

Also, who launches an attack while screaming his own name?

Thank you so very much!

Seriously...

Huh?

Oh, patrol bots...

Spaceport security sure is quick.

This guy is a purse-snatcher.

I knocked him out by accident.

Huh?

You are under arrest for assault.

Huh?

Wha...?

Catch, and...!

No!

Go!

One, two! One, two!

Hey! Not me!

Wait, please!

Passengers boarding AQF flight 318 to Ikemir...

...your flight will begin boarding at noon...

Hey, are you going on the camp too?

I'm sorry.

What?! Sorry for what?!

Hey there. Are you lost?

No, I'm not lost.

Oh. That's good. This area is...

What are you doing?

Calculating the trajectory from here to Planet McPa.

Quitterie...

But why, though?

Just for fun.

Hmm? Oh, it's you.

Stop fidgeting around. What do you want?

It's... nothing.

Can we go already?

Just wait a bit longer. I'll explain when everyone's here.

You know we're past schedule, right?

Fashionably late from the very beginning? Quite a bold statement.

Ugh.

How rude, right?

I'm sorry.

Seriously, why?!

I'm sorry!

I'm late!

Finally here, huh?

Quiet. You are?

Um, a beef got me, and he saved me,

but he got one-two'ed, and...

It really was a Ferris wheel!

Catch a breath and make some sense, please?!

Name and class?

Yes!

Aries Spring, Class 2-B!

I love poetry, and my special skill is that I never forget people I meet.

My personality is, uh... People say I can't read the room.

I really don't understand.

I said name and class, not life story! That's basic room reading!

What's her deal?

She's quite unique.

Takes one to know one.

Ahem. So, back on track.

This is the day you've been waiting for, Caird High, team B-5, Space Camp.

We teachers will deliver you to Planet McPa, then leave immediately after.

The goal of the Planet Camp is to spend five days on site, eight students only.

The team was assembled randomly.

Most of you must have met for the first time.

Deepen your bond, feel the vastness of space,

and have a great experience.

Also...

She is Funicia Rafaeli, Quitterie's sister.

She will be joining you on this camp.

Each team is assigned a special task.

In your case, bringing along a ten-year-old is the task.

So we asked Quitterie to bring her sister.

Come on, say hi.

I'm Funicia, I'm ten years old. I'm sorry to cause you trouble.

Are you sure it's safe to take this kid along?

I'm really uncomfortable around kids.

I, I...

You wanna piece of me, you little brat?!

What?!

Funicia!

That was Beego.

Impressive.

It's a puppet that automatically conveys thoughts into a cartoon character's voice.

Ahem! Anyway, so this team will have one additional member.

Hey, Mom!

I'm your teacher!

Teacher, we already have exactly eight people.

Yes, we're missing one more.

We may have to leave him behind.

Too close, too close.

Getting left behind for being late? Not cool at all.

"Tadah!" --One, two! One, two!

"Tadah!" --You really are uncool! --One, two! One, two!

Are you a participant?

Finally, the misunderstanding is over!

Kanata Hoshijima. I'm your captain!

Follow me, everyone!

Let's go, to Planet McPa!

Hmm? I thought we vote to choose a captain.

Yeah, so I thought I might declare my candidacy early...

What's wrong with this guy?! He should be sorry, not bossy!

Terrible first impressions. You're not getting our votes.

What? For real?

Retreat, retreat...

Someone needs to check his ego.

But I guess that's the beauty of youth.

Why does this puppet sound so elderly?

"Caird High Space Ship Ready for departure"

That pink and black suit, it's from SMB, right?

Same as Funi!

Yep!

I don't have siblings, so I'm jealous of sisters who are close.

It's not like that.

Funi, I love your little skirt!

Yunhua, your suit is by Hyperion!

Same as mine!

Yes.

Whoa... Awesome!

He is interesting.

His declaration to run. Is it that desirable, to become captain?

--It is a big responsibility. --Out of my way.

--He'd have to round everyone up. --Sorry.

What are you talking about?

Who should be captain.

Yes! Me! I've volunteered!

Calm down. That's why you didn't get chosen.

Past tense?! How?!
