Selector Infected WIXOSS (セレクター インフェクテッド ウィクロス)

I promise.

I will make your wish come true.

Even if it means hurting myself.

Even if it means hurting you.

Because deep down, I know our wishes are the same.

But you know that too, don't you?

So why are you crying?

My head is killing me...

Tea and pickled plums do wonders for hangovers, dear.

Trust me.

You're the best, Grandma...

Hope we're not being too loud for you!

Shut up...

Oh, Ru, look at the time.

You oughta get going now.

It's cool--I'm almost done.

What's up?

She's going out to meet with a friend.

Wugh--Sour!

There we go!

Have fun. And be safe!

'Kay!

Wait a minute, what's this about?

Nothing.

Your big brother's just here to see you off, that's all.

Ugh, weirdo! I'm outta here!

See you later, Ru!

Rejected.

What happens when the last space is filled?

It's all couples here.

Maybe we should meet up at a different spot next time.

What, are you kidding?

This is the perfect place for single girls.

Some hot guy might pick you up!

What?! No way!

Y-You don't mean that do you?!

You realize that's a good thing?

Wait, did someone ask you out here before?

Uh, y-yeah, maybe...

Really? Was he cute?

Did you go on a date? Was it weird?

Ugh. Changing the subject! Let's go over there!

Why didn't you tell me about this guy?! Was he nice?

It's really not worth talking about, trust me.

Aw... No fair.

I wanna know! Tell me!

Tell me!

Ooh!

Mm... Over there!

Ahh...

It's all so cute!

For this price, it's hard to say no!

Uh-huh! And they're totally our style!

I bet Grandma would like these! I'll get her one, too.

I'm glad. Ru's really having fun, huh?

Yeah...

I was thinking I'd buy you some scrunchies.

So you can match the rest of us.

Sounds great!

Ruko!

Come look! Like it?

Yeah! It's so cute!

Can we try it on?

It's nice and quiet over here.

Let me sit down for a sec.

Sure.

-- Say cheese! --

What's up?

Ha, I couldn't resist.

That, and my friends in Aomori asked for a picture.

A picture of me?

Uh-huh!

We've been texting back and forth and I told them

you were really cool, so they wanted to see

what you look like. Oh, and this them, by the way.

Ooh!

Hey! Show me, too!

I was wrong.

Ah?

I wasted so much time wishing I had friends.

I should've realized you guys were here all along.

Yeah.

Maybe I should finally get a cell phone, too.

Huh?

That came out of nowhere.

No, I've been thinking about it for a while.

What if, like, something happens and I need to call Grandma?

Or someone moves away and I want to keep in touch?

Could I look at yours?

Sure!

That settles it.

We'll go phone shopping next time!

Sounds good!

But I dunno, Ruko.

Are you sure you're gonna be able to figure it out?

Huh? Are they that complicated?

Yeah, super hard.

We'll have to give her special training!

No matter what happens...

...even if I go far away...

One more thing!

You can't get a cell phone unless you go to Akihabara!

Huh? But I've seen them for sale all over town!

Sure, you can buy them,

but if you don't activate them in Akihabara,

they'll never work!

What?! Seriously?

...I won't lose anyone, ever again!

Don't be such a bully.

Yuzuki's just messing with you.

You really had me going!

Shows what I know.

Maybe a little training wouldn't hurt.

I've made up my mind.

Anyway, I'm getting thirsty. Let's find something to drink.

'Kay!

Ice cream?

Thought she said she was thirsty.

This looks good, though.

No, it doesn't! Look around!

There's a reason nobody's buying this!

It's winter! It's cold!

-- --

One small caramel, please.

Ruko?

Hey!

What was that all about?

Hitoe. Can we go?

Wait, is this a--

WIXOSS...

Open!

Geez, they're holding tournaments

everywhere these days.

Are there Selectors... here?

No, but let's still go.

Wait. Stop!

What's wrong?

There's... one.

There's one what?

A Selector?

Yeah. She's close.

Dammit, it's too late!

Selectors! I see you!

It's battle time!

It's her!

So you were... following us?

Sorry. My pal could stand to work on her manners, huh?

I told you, Eldora! I just knew they'd be here!

The heavens have parted and Selectors have descended!

It's no mere coincidence.

This is destiny!

Seeing as they're holding a tournament,

it would be kinda weird if they didn't show up.

Alas, though I try to escape,

it seems that battles are drawn to me!

Yeah, you try real hard.

Like when you came here looking for someone to fight.

Poo! Can't you play along for once?

Sorry again, ladies!

I think she was dropped on her head as a child.

Anyway!

Can we battle pretty please?

Battle...

A back alley!

It's the perfect scene!

Out of curiosity,

you went to the big Iona fan event thing, right?

I mean, you must have.

Yeah, we wanted to go pretty bad,

but it just didn't work out.

Cryin' shame, don't ya know?

Ugh! That's enough!

Open!

Huh...?

-- Are you lost? --Wait.... What?

Umm...

Omigosh, she is so lousy with directions,

we spent half the day bursting into every other building

in town, running around and around.

Then--

No! Stop! Shush! Shush!

I surrender! Mercy! Mercy!

Please ignore her.

We've all faced tragedies in the past,

but our tears shall become starlight

and our wishes shooting stars in the field of battle!

Now open!

Wait. Um. Huh?

No battles. Sorry.

What?

It just is not worth the risk anymore.

Oh my.

But you're Selectors!
