You never change, do you?
Oh, if it isn't Darudayu!
After peace continues for hundreds of years,
someone will always appear who will destroy that peace.
That is how the world works.
In the past, when Midi City--no,
Sound Planet--faced an unprecedented crisis,
it was saved by...
...the legendary Melodisian Almaz, huh?
Aye. So you know of it, after all?
Yeah.
The sound energy hidden
in every substance and living thing in this world--
the Melodisian stone.
The phantom Melodisian Almaz is said to be its source.
Aye. A Melodisian stone of high purity that has never been violated.
My disciples and I are about to embark on a journey to find it.
I came today to inform you of our journey.
You mean, you want me to take care of Midi City while you're gone, right?
I expected no less of you, King. You're quick to understand.
But as you can see, I'm well into my retirement.
I don't know if I'll be much help.
A-All right, I get it.
Jeez, I can't refuse when you ask me.
Well then, I leave it to you.
Yeah. Take care.
Oh, one more thing.
You know of the girl?
Yeah. Cyan, right?
"Ba-dump!? It's a Floaty Water Sports Meet Full of Girls! Po-- (etc.)"
Oh, shoot! I'm gonna be late!
Who's there?
Peepers should all go to hell...
That uniform--is it from our high school?
But why does it feel so tense?
Everyone! This weekend, it's finally time for
Sparkling Midicians Long Beach Water Sports Meet Full of Girls! Tee-hee!
Ahem.
So, I wanted to discuss what kind of bathing suit to wear.
We want to choose bathing suits that fit everyone's personalities
while keeping Plasmagica's image consistent as a whole.
Like having the same design with different colors for everyone?
Or having the same color with different designs, pyuru?
But there are events with a lot of movement,
so maybe we should choose a design that won't move too much?
No, that's what we're aiming for!
What we're aiming for...?
Yup!
What're we gonna do if we don't show off
the fresh energy of middle school girls to the max?
We can't shy away!
It's not that I'm shying away...
Fresh energy...
It's true that freshly baked taiyaki are delicious.
But anyway, I'm lookin' forward to the water sports tournament!
It might be the one thing no one can be me at!
Jacklyn.
Wear this during the swimming race.
It's an exceptional swimsuit that keeps water resistance down to a minimum.
Huh?
Everyone, we're definitely not going to lose!
Yay!
To everyone in Midi City--
How are you?
Do you know what day it is?
That's right!
It's the day of the Sparkling Midicians
"Sparkling Midicians Long Beach Water Sports Meet Full of Girls - Tee-hee"
Long Beach Water Sports Meet Full of Girls! Tee-hee!
It's an exciting event where young, cute girls represent Midi City
competing in various games!
Everyone, cheer them on with everything you've got!
We're on the white team, huh?
Oh, Shizuku Secret Mind is, too!
Ugh. Cri-Cri is also on the white team...
Yeah, because we're from the same agency, pyuru.
Being on the same team as that middle schooler
kinda makes me less motivated.
You don't like Rosia, pyuru?
I mean, that brat's always cuddling up to Cyan.
Huh?
That girl probably likes Cyan, too, pyuru.
She has that in common with you, pyuru!
No, that's not what I'm talking about!
The events we'll be competing in
are the water relay, water rodeo, water sumo,
water ball toss, and finally the water chicken fight.
It's a pretty hard schedule.
I wonder if I'll last till the end...
That'll depend on your fighting spirit, pyuru.
Yeah...
Everyone, the chicken fight teams will be determined by drawing lots,
so please take one.
Okay!
"Team B: Rosia, Retoree, Holmy, Wendy"
I'm on the same team is Cyan, Tsukino, and Shabobon, huh?
--I'm on a different team, pyuru! --Retoree! I'm so happy we're on the same team!
The chicken fight is my place to shine!
You won't hold me back, will you?
Why did I have to be with this annoying little girl, of all people?
Water! Water!
It's the swimsuit--I mean, swim meet--we've all been waiting for!
You're getting too excited, President.
If I don't get excited now, then when should I be excited?!
I hope everyone comes out soon!
And now, we have a live broadcast from today's super guests
who will perform their new song for us!
It's Trichonika!
--Shuzo! --Kai! --Riku!
To those of you at the event, and those
watching the broadcast across Sound Galaxy--
--Funny, funny hallo! --Hallo!
--Hello! --Hello!
We are currently in the middle of our Rainbow Galaxy Tour!
Today, we'll deliver a precious and brilliant stage to your hearts from here!
Enjoy yourselves to the fullest today!
Shuzo!
Oh, I haven't seen Shuzo and the others in a while.
It looks like they're doing a galaxy live broadcast.
Wow, they're working hard, as usual.
Ever since we started our Dream Galaxy tour, we've visited a lot of planets, huh?
Yes!
Each planet had its own charm, and every day was an exciting new adventure!
Yes.
Even with the same song, depending on the planet,
it was received differently by all the Dream Galaxy audiences...
...and the concerts felt new every time!
That's right.
There were many, many wonderful discoveries!
That's why, I wonder--
When we go back to Sound Planet, how will that planet--how will Midi City receive us?
Trichronika, please stand by!
Now, shall we go, you two?
Yes, Shuzo!
Oh, long time no see!
Corriente! Wendy!
Oh, did you come back?
Yeah...
Cyan, you were really cool that time!
Yeah, you were like a hero!
Oh, sorry. You haven't met, have you?
Hi, I'm Shabobon from Shizuku Secret Mind.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, too! Look forward to working with you!
And I'm sure you already know about these,
but please have some water if you'd like!
Thank you, as always.
But we only get two bottles for free, right, pyuru?
Yup, that's how it is!
I don't like crowds, after all...
Retoree!
Here you go!
Th-Thanks.
Is something the matter?
No, it's nothing.
Actually, I'm a little... down...
I'm not good at swimming,
and I'm not good at sports in general...
So I'm worried that I'm going to cause trouble for everyone...
But they say there's feeling in participating, right?
You mean there's meaning in it, Cyan.
But I think I shouldn't run away from things I'm not good at.
It's okay if we mess up. We need to have fun with everything we've got, right?
Let's do our best!
Yeah.
You two are both really into it, pyuru.
Oh yeah, it'll be bad if you get a cramp, so make sure you warm up carefully!
Right!
I'm fine as long as I'm with everyone from Plasma.
That's enough for me...
Okay, everyone, are you all warmed up?
It's time to start the games you've all been waiting for!
"Munasawagi Just Paradise" "Trichronika"
I-I can do it!
Oh, Contestant Chuchu fell!
Yay!
Contestant Candy Lapin reaches the goal!
Now I've done it...
Here I go, pyuru!
One, two, pyu--
P-P-Pyuru!
I win!
Next is the water rodeo!
Whoever can stand the water coming from all directions the longest wins!
All right...
Ready...
Huh?
Meow?!
Contestant Cyan's fallen off!
It hasn't even started yet!
I can't get them in at all...
Oof!
There!
Yes!
You're amazing, Rosia!
This is just the beginning!
--Go! --Do your best! --Pyuru!
Ah, that was so close!
You can do it! Go!
A chicken fight with teammates that I don't really know...
With Rosia of all people...
I wish I could've been on the same team as Cyan and the others.
Please get out of the way!
Yes, excuse us!
--Excuse us! --Excuse us!
Jeez, it won't fit through the door!
It should just fit if we stand it up...
Maybe I'll just sit out...
All right!
Scoot, scoot, scoot!
Glance, glance!
Retoree? You surprised me!
What are you doing in a place like this?
N-Nothing. I'm leaving.
What did you come here for?
Um... I came to look for something I forgot...
Oh? I wonder where it could've gone...
I wonder where... Maybe here...?
Hmm...
Well, I'm going first.
Huh?
What's the matter?
The door won't open!
What?
No way. That shouldn't...
Why?!
Why won't it open?
Announcement, announcement!
Everyone in the chicken fight--please gather by the pool in 15 minutes.
We have to hurry!
Oh well.
If we're stuck like this, then I don't have to be in the chicken fight.
Now, here is the second heat of the freestyle race!
Keep your eyes on Contestants Corriente and Jacklyn,
who are both good at swimming!
We can expect an event record!
--I won't hold back. --On your mark...
--Me neither. --Get set...
All right!
I did it!
There it is! The fastest time in history!
How's that!
Retoree.
You don't like me getting close to Cyan, do you?
I don't care about that...
But don't worry.
I'm not interested in Cyan. I'm interested in her talent.
Her talent?
Because she's the first person I didn't want to lose to.
Up until now, I was able to get the results I wanted by working hard.
I had never lost to anyone before.
That's why it was my first time feeling like that.
That's why I'm interested in Cyan.
You might not think winning or losing matters,
but it's really important to me,
to help me make my own music the best it can be!
Jacklyn, you were amazing!
But it was really close,
so it was probably thanks to the swimsuit Rosia gave me.
Huh? Rosia's not here...
Retoree isn't, either, pyuru.
What?
I wonder where they went...
That's why I want to win, and why I'm interested in Cyan.
She's a little different from what I imagined.
Up until now, I really didn't like her, but--
It's okay if we mess up.
We need to have fun with everything we've got, right?
Let's do our best!
I think I might've had the wrong idea.
Huh?
About today's swim meet, for one thing. Because of all the crowds,
I decided from the start that I wouldn't like it.
Also...
We need to compete in the chicken fight, right?
Of course!
In order to do that, we need to get out of here, though.
Now, we're finally at the last event--the chicken fight!
The red team has an advantage,
but the team who wins the chicken fight gets...
...a rockin' 690,000 points!
Then what about all the points we got until now?
There was no point in competing, huh?
This always happens...
I-It's not open yet?
Just a little more...
The window's stuck!
I'm lighter than you, so please try a little harder!
She always says too much!
Retoree! Rosia, too?
Oh, good! You're both here!
We were looking for you, pyuru!
Sorry.
Rosia!
I was so worried...
What were you doing?
Wait, Rosia?
Sorry to worry you.
But we don't have time to stand around!
The white team, led by me, Rosia, will definitely not lose!
Right?
Gooo!
Hey!
Yes!
I'm gonna win!
It's not that easy!
That's not gonna work on me!
No way!
Now it's my turn!
Start the counterattack!
Okay.
You got me...
Yes!
That was a nice idea, Retoree!
Of course.
The last team remaining is Rosia, Retoree, Holmy, and Wendy!
Yay!
With this, the white team gets 690,000 points...
...winning in a huge upset!
Retoree!
Hmph.
Retoree!
We did it!
Retoree, you did a great job!
You and Rosia worked well together, pyuru!
It's thanks to Cyan.
Huh? Me?
Did I do something?
Ah, we're late! We're late!
We're gonna be late!
That old guy hates it when we're late, too!
We have to hurry!
I hope he's not there yet.
No way.
Right? That old guy doesn't have anything better to do.
Let's hurry!
That old guy's scary when he gets mad...
"Tsukisato Karaoke" "There's a drink bar!!" "If you don't come, we'll go under."
Those high schoolers are late...
Jeez, I'm just gonna sing!
We are not idols. We are artists!
Your golden melodious is always provoking my five senses, Titan!
--Sei...! --Who are you people?!
