Delicious!
John, I'm off to see Mom.
Hello, is this Suzuki-san?
Yes, I'm Hara Seiichirou from the Hara Magic Office.
Yes.
Suzuki Sora-san has been accepted to train at our facility.
Oh, no, the Bureau of Magic will notify you.
Yes.
Same here, take care.
Later.
That kid from Hokkaido?
Yeah, we're taking her in.
Suzuki Sora...
I wonder what type of girl she is.

Hi everyone, nice to meet you!
My name is Suzuki Sora and I am 16 years old!
From Biei
Mother!
My bento!
Mother!
Oh, isn't that Sora-chan?
Look.
Hey, Seiko-san.
I think Sora-chan is here.
Huh?
Where?
Oh, it's Sora!
Yuusaka-chan, can you stop for a moment?
All right.
Sora!
Big news!
Sora!
Mother?
Sora!
Mother!
Sora, your training location...
Your training location has been decided!
Eh?
Just now, the Magic Office called!
It's decided?
I wanted to let you know as soon as possible, so I called your cell.
But you didn't pick up!
Mother!
Sora...
Mother!
Your clothes are going to get dirty.
It was surprising.
Crybaby Sora.
I'm not crying.
You're right.
I'll go and tell father now.
Okay, off you go.
Sora-chan is all grown up, huh?
Sora, do your best.
Father,
the location for my training has finally been decided.
I'll become a mage.
Father.
We made a promise after all.
Please wait for me.
Father...
Sorry for calling you back so late.
A lot has happened since this morning, so I only just read your e-mail.
I see.
So, what happened?
Um...
My training location has been decided.
The one for magic training?
Yeah.
That's great, Sora!
Congratulations!
Starting tomorrow, I'll be under a Tokyo sky.
What are you doing?!
Stop staring.
I see, it'll be lonely.
Let me use the phone!
Aunt Yoshiko has fresh morning milk waiting for you!
Shut up, Dad.
I'm discussing something important here.
Sora-chan!
What do you want to discuss?
Sora, where are you now?
In front of the station.
Then let's meet at the usual spot.
Got it.
Are you talking with Sora-chan?
Seriously, everyone's so annoying with their, "Sora-chan, Sora-chan."
Oh, it got cut.
Now...
When was the training location decided?
Earlier, when they called my mother's cellphone.
Sora, you're going to Tokyo by yourself?
Yep.
Michiru, do you want to come with me?
I'm not a mage.
Oh, right.
Michiru, what did you want to talk about?
I'm feeling heartbroken.
No way!
It's true.
Over who?
Tooyama-kun.
He said he's going to move during the summer.
But he just transferred here!
I heard it from him.
It can't be helped...
I never noticed you liked Tooyama-kun.
That's because the affection was one-sided.
I'm just going to forget it was ever there.
Michiru, are you fine with that?
But, Tooyama-kun did say he wanted to see a winter in Biei with me.
I was so happy.
Sorry...
Michiru!
Sora?
W-Wait!
It's no good if you don't tell him how you feel!
S-Sora...
It hurts...
Let's go!
Sora, wait!
Then we'll meet at Mr. Satake's place at eight.
Okay.
Hey, Sora.
What is it?
You were only just accepted. Is it okay for you to be doing this?
My father once said,
"When magic is needed, it should be used."
Sora...
Oh, Sora-chan, you came.
Sorry for intruding!
Eh? You're going already?
Dad!
Did you give the milk to Sora-chan?
Yes, Auntie gave me a full bucket of milk!
I see, I see.
Then, I'll see you later.
Goodbye, Uncle!
Bye bye, Sora-chan!
Sora!
Thanks!
Sora-chan is a really cute girl.
Look, I got something good for you!
Oh, come on now, you don't need to rush.
John, take care of Mother for me.
Make sure you wash your hands.
Yes.
Wow, it looks delicious!
It's all stuff I like to eat!
Because, starting tomorrow, you won't be able to eat what you like.
Thanks, Mother!
It's good!
Sora, I made plenty of food, so eat up!
Do your best with your training, Sora.
But, you don't have to push yourself too hard.
Be sure to listen to your teacher!
Also, and um...
Life is about trial and error.
Don't you ever give up.
Mother, miso soup is best when it's made of...
tofu and nameko mushrooms!
I'm going to see Michiru.
Have you prepared your things for tomorrow?
Not yet.
Don't stay out too late.
I know.
Bring some corn with you.
There's no need!
I'm going!
Is it Sora?
Sorry, did you wait for a long time?
Nope.
Sora, I'm a bit nervous.
Michiru, it's trial and error!
You can't lose faith now.
Um...
If you don't do anything...
You'll never know if your feelings were right...
How should I put it...
You're right. I have to tell Tooyama-kun my feelings.
Because if I don't, I might regret it.
Michiru...
It's about time. I'm going.
Michiru.
Do your best, Michiru.
Sato?
Are you Sato?
Tooyama-kun.
What did you call me here for?
When you speak, your accent still makes you sound like someone from Hokkaido.
Really?
I guess I need more practice.
No, it's good enough.
I see.
But, I still want to improve.
So this is what a plastic greenhouse is like.
I asked to meet with you so I could tell you my true feelings.
Okay!
For Michiru...
Do your best,
a world of white!
Hey Sato, what's this?
Amazing...
Is this...
...snow?
It's snow that Sora created for me.
Suzuki?
I see, this is magic.
But, why...
You once said you couldn't wait to see a winter in Biei.
I like it too.
The winter of Biei.
It's beautiful.
I love you.
The wheat seedlings that are planted here are called akiko.
Akiko?
Akiko seedlings are strong wheat plants that can survive underneath the snow.
They wait for the arrival of spring during the long winter.
I want to cherish these feelings that I've kept hidden like the akiko in the winter.
I'm happy I could see this snowfall with you.
Oh, you seem very cheerful.
Did something nice happen?
It's try and catch.
Oh, what did you catch?
Something very warm.
But, the one who caught it was Michiru.
Really, really?
Yup, yup.
Sora.
If you're not happy there, just come back.
Sora.
How about I jump in the bath with you?
Why?!
What's wrong?
I'm getting out!
That felt great.
E-mail, is it from Michiru?
From: Michiru
Subject: Beautiful Magic
Sora, thank you!
The snow was beautiful. I was really surprised!
Tooyama-kun was very touched.
I'm really glad I was able to talk to you about this.
That's great, Michiru.
We've decided to keep in touch with each other by e-mail.
Hahaha! I'm so in love!
I see...
You should find a boyfriend too! Love is happiness.
Well, good night. Thanks for today!
Love, Michiru.
I'm not suited for love.
Love...
Sora, Yuusaka-chan came to pick you up.
Hurry up!
Okay!
Father, I'm going.
Did you forget anything?
Trial and error, right?
Somehow that doesn't seem right.
Yuusaka-chan, I'm counting on you to take Sora to the Asahikawa airport.
Don't worry.
Sora, be careful.
Mother...
What is it?
If only I had a younger brother or a younger sister...
Silly!
Do your best, make new friends, and learn more about the outside world.
I'm going.
Sora.
Sora!
Tokyo, are you looking forward to it?
Yeah.
Oh, it's Michiru.
From: Michiru
Subject: Your Trip
It's a good thing the weather is nice for your trip to Tokyo!
Hurry on back when you're done with your training.
It's lonely without you.
Love, Michiru.
Excuse me, Miss, please don't use your cell phone inside the aircraft.
Oh, sorry!
I wonder what kind of place Tokyo is...
夜の後曲がりざわめく街
yoru no nochi magari zawa meku machi
After the night, in this noisy town,
君に借りたり歌を聞きながら歩く
kimi ni karitari uta wo kiki nagara aruku
you lend me a song to listen to, while I walk with you.
何度も電話して
nando demo denwa shite
No matter what, I will always call you.
声だけで元気になるんだ
koe dake de genki ni narun da
Just hearing your voice makes me happy.
星に一つだけ
hoshi ni hitotsu dake
There is but one star in the sky.
願いを込めて君に送るよ
negai wo komete kimi ni okuru yo
But I want to send you all of my wishes.
染と夏の臭い 明日に逃げって行く
someto natsu no nioi asuni nigette yuku
Smothered in the scent of spring, I'll escape into my tomorrow.
手を伸ばさが唯一でも君が言った
te wo nobasa ga yuitsu demo kimi ga itta
"You only have to reach out your hand once," is what you told me.
風が騒ぎ 僕が愛を口治作
kaze ga sawagi boku ga ai wo kuchi jisaku
The wind causes its disturbance, but I will find peace in my love.
夢を抱えこんだ
yume wo kakae konda
I will embrace my dream.
乾いの花は
kawai no hana wa
Just like this dry flower,
月の色
tsuki no iro
it's the colour of the moon.
A new city and meeting new people.
And also, something new begins.
Next episode: Tokyo.
Tokyo
Tokyo is so hot!
From the sky of Biei-
Next episode we'll be landing in Tokyo!
