My-Otome (舞-乙HiME)

The rebels! They've broken in!

Over there! They're entering from this side!

They've reached the king's room! Somebody! Anybody!

God of ancient light, knowledge,

and wisdom. Grant me your loyal servant.

The princess isn't here!

Find her! Find her!

You must live.

Is this already the limit of your strength

without the power of the Otome and the Blue Sky Sapphire?

Yet another failed lead.

Still. I always knew that finding her

wouldn't be an easy task.

Over there! Kurochs!

Kurochs?!

Kurochs?

Hey mister, there's something over there!

Don't worry, son. It's just a bit of trash.

It is not! It's a big piece of trash!

PASSENGER A] So these are Kurochs!

PASSENGER B] They're the real thing!

They say that seeing a Kuroch is a sign of good luck.

What kind of good luck?

Such as meeting a beautiful stranger.

What are you saying, Handsome.

Huh?

Aw. I thought they'd stop and rescue me.

Hey, wait for me! Come back here and save me!

Pardon me, miss.

You are the number one ranked Coral student, Nina Wong, right?

Excuse me, I didn't order this.

It was sent by the customer over there.

Huh?

To the future Otome.

To the beautiful Otome.

To the Otome!

Uh...

Water...

Huh?

Thank you very much for the drink. I am honored.

No!

Ah!

Nina! What happened?

F-Father?!

Nina- chan ... your legs.

Uh...

I've had a bad feeling lately.

You have a very good reason to.

After all, next week is Princess Mashiro's coronation.

There may well already be a few unwanted guests in Wind City.

You mean the Schwarz?

They know full well that our pact with Wind Castle

prevents us from taking any action.

That means they're bound to try something.

After all, it's been 14 years since that incident.

And after all this time, we still haven't found "her".

That is why I have requested your return, Shizuru.

It's all part of the job for the Fire Pillars.

We're expected to help out the school.

And Garderobe Academy is still in an a very awkward position.

Well, in any case, we have no choice but to see

what happens and react accordingly.

I'll be counting on your help.

You forget that it's my job to help you with all your problems,

Headmistress Natsuki.

Hm?

Hm...

Please forgive me, father,

for embarrassing myself in front of so many people.

Don't worry about it.

It was just an accident.

An unlucky accident, Nina.

You're right, Father! Unlucky.

Um...

Well... I, uh...

Oh right! Here you go!

And thank you so, so much for the juice earlier, Nina- chan !

Nina.

Huh?

It's Nina.

The only person who can call me "Nina- chan " is my father.

Uh, your father? Hm...

Why is that?

Dunno.

Major!

Huh?

Ha! I hope your trip to the home country went well, sir!

Hm.

Thank you for coming to pick me up, Nina- chan.

Yes.

And as for you...

I've been trying to think what you remind me of,

and I finally remembered.

You are Antsy!

I'm Antsy?

Mm-mm! Don't call me Antsy!

My name is Arika! Arika Yumemiya!

Well, pardon me.

I'm an officer at the Embassy of the Artai Principality.

the name's Sergey Wong.

I hate the name Antsy,

And I hate people who call me Antsy!

I think it suits you. Antsy Arika.

Wait! I owe you for the juice!

Don't bother.

Hey!

I can't just leave it like this!

Grandma always told me to pay my favors back!

You can do that by going away.

You're annoying, you're an eyesore,

and you're bothering me!

Huh?

Hey! Hey, Nina!

God, you're noisy. Stop screaming my name so--

So awesome!

Hey, what is this thing?

Wow! A real train ticket!

I'd better keep it safe.

Uh... I brought along some water.

Want some? Here!

Stop it. You're embarrassing me.

Aw. Nina, are you angry about something?

Would you please, please stop talking?

Huh?

It's a castle!

That's where the princess lives, isn't it?

What's she like?

I don't know.

The coronation doesn't happen until next week.

Huh...

Princess!

Princess!

Your Highness! Your Highness!

Princess! Your Highness!

The princess has gone missing again.

I've already sent several search teams to look in the city.

Thank you for helping, again.

Well, that's it. I have to go now.

Hey! Hey, wait up! Wait for me, Nina!

Hey!

I'm very sorry, but from now on, you are on your own.

As you can see, I'm very busy.

Um, I'm looking for the way to Garderobe Academy.

Do you know it?

What do you need at the Academy?

Well, I'm looking for my mother.

But the only thing I know about her is that she was an Otome.

So I thought, Garderobe is a school for Otomes, right?

So, then, if I become an Otome too...

Impossible.

Why's that?

You really don't know anything, do you?

Where do you come from?

Galelia.

Huh. I don't know what kind of backwoods place that is,

but you don't understand anything about being an Otome.

Hm?

Hey, hey, hey! What is that?

Television!

Television?

Windbloom is a place where the old technology of Earth

is still preserved and used.

Oh my gosh, is that the princess?

No. "That" is an Otome.

She is Meister Shizuru.

Wow, she's so pretty!

Mei... Meister?

Huh? Nina!

Hey, what's this thing?

A hologram.

Huh...

Wow, that too?

Yes.

This is awesome! It's like magic!
