announcement: The first round of the Bell One Grand Prix is about to begin. Will the student council president and his partner please come to the auditorium...
Yuki: Finally...
(auditorium)
Yuki: Everyone's here.
(Yuki: They're supporting us...!)
Yuki: Ugh. I'm so nervous.
Arata: Come on, Ace-kun. Breathe through your nose, breathe through your nose.
Yuki: Right!
Yuki: *inhale*... *exhale*...
Arata: There. Relax.
Yuki: Now my shoulders... oh...
Arata: How is this? A massage.
Yuki: Oh... I guess it feels kind of good.
Arata: Then, try circling your arms slowly.
Yuki: Okay...
Yuki: My body is kind of relaxing... And my breathing has gotten easier?
Arata: See?
(Yuki: It feels good... My body feels lighter...)
(Yuki: The places where Arata-san touched me are slightly warm.)
Arata: There! Finished! Do your best in the Bell One!!
Yuki: Yes! Thank you!
Arata: No. It's no problem.
Arata: Now is the time for you to show your luck, Ace-kun. I'm looking forward to it.
Yuki: Luck, huh. Will that really help with a quiz?
Arata: It will, it will. It will help lots.
Arata: May no questions we're bad at come up, and may there be lots of questions we know the answer to.
Arata: We've done as much as we can, the rest is up to luck.
Yuki: ...That's right.
Yuki: Yeah! I feel like it will work out somehow!
Yuki: Alright! Let's win the first round!!
Sakaki: Then I'll begin the first round of the Bell One Grand Prix.
Yuki: Right.
Sakaki: To begin with, the first round is a contest to measure your intelligence.
Yuki: What kind of thing will we be doing?
Sakaki: It will be a quiz to measure your memory and abstract reasoning.
Sakaki: As for the detailed rules, since they've been entered into that panda you prepared, I'll have it explain.
Panda-san: Alrighty, Ah'll explain the rules of this game.
Panda-san: Whether this school closes or not, rests on both y'all's shoulders.
Panda-san: Do yer best!!
Panda-san: As Sakaki-han said, the first round will be a quiz to measure y'all's intelligence.
Panda-san: Ah've even given it a name! "Brain Scramblin' Brains Quiz!"
Panda-san: How about it? Just hearin' the names makes yer head hurt, doesn't it.
Panda-san: Put yer brains into full gear and do yer best.
Panda-san: There are two types of questions. The "memory quiz" and "abstract reasonin' quiz."
Panda-san: Which are ya good at, student council president?
Panda-san: Well, wantin' to choose the one yer good at is human psychology.
Panda-san: But, guess what? Panda-san isn't that nice.
Panda-san: It's a brutal system where ya won't know which kind of questions there'll be until it starts.
Panda-san: Well, the point is, it will depend on y'all's luck.
Panda-san: However, Panda-san hates sneaky people who save and load over and over before the quiz.
Panda-san: If ya do that, Panda-san will hit ya. Hit ya over and over.
Panda-san: No, instead Panda-san might cry.
Panda-san: We don't want that. Then face the fate ya've been given!
Panda-san: There will be ten questions in all.
Panda-san: Ya win if ya get six questions right.
Panda-san: Do ya want to hear the detailed explanation of the rules?
(decision)
Hear it.
Don't hear it.
(decision: Hear it.)
Panda-san: Alrighty, kind Panda-han will give ya a thorough explanation, so listen carefully.
Panda-san: First, when the question is displayed, ya decide who will answer it.
Panda-san: Ah don't mind if the student council president-han thinks about it himself, or relies on his partner.
(PC only) Panda-san: Choose who will do it with the mouse.
(PC only) Panda-san: When ya've decided who will answer, click on them.
(Vita only) Panda-san: Choose who will do it by moving left or right with the directional key and decide with the O button, or choose directly with a tap.
Panda-san: If yer partner was chosen, even if ya try to answer, they will answer by themselves.
Panda-san: Ya can leave them all to yer partner, but if yer confident in the answer, answerin' yerself is an option.
Panda-san: No matter how smart yer partner is, they're only human. They may make mistakes.
Panda-san: That's where yer partnership is important.
Panda-san: So, back to the quiz.
Panda-san: First, Ah'll explain the "memory quiz."
Panda-san: Well, to put it simply, it's a quiz where you memorize the numbers on playin' cards and answer.
Panda-san: There are two types, number matchin' and number sequencin'.
Panda-san: For the number matchin', the cards are displayed at the beginnin', then ya beat them into yer head so ya don't forget the numbers.
(PC only) Panda-san: Once ya've memorized it, press the "I've memorized it!" button.
(Vita only) Panda-san: Once ya've memorized it, press the O button or tap "I've memorized it!"
Panda-san: There is a time limit to memorize it, so be careful.
Panda-san: Then, from among the face-down cards, like the game Concentration, choose two cards at a time with the same number.
Panda-san: If ya've properly memorized the cards, ya should be able to answer.
Panda-san: For the number sequencin', the cards are displayed at the beginnin', so memorize the numbers so ya don't forget.
Panda-san: Then, from among the face-down cards, choose the cards in numerical order startin' from the smallest.
Panda-san: Alright? In order from the smallest.
Panda-san: For the number matchin' and number sequencin', if ya make any mistake, that's considered a wrong answer.
Panda-san: Since we scrambled the numbers, it might be a teensy bit difficult.
Panda-san: Then, ya can consult yer own brain, or rely on yer partner.
Panda-san: There will be ten questions in all, five number matchin' and five number sequencin' questions.
Panda-san: That's the explanation of the "memory quiz."
Panda-san: Next Ah'll explain the "abstract reasonin' quiz."
Panda-san: On the screen, shapes will be displayed in lined-up slots.
Panda-san: Among them, there will be a box with "?", so think about what to put there that lines up with the shapes to the left and right.
Panda-san: To make a comprehensive judgement of all the factors like color and shape, ya need flexible abstract reasonin'.
(PC only) Panda-san: If ya discover the rule, click the up and down triangles to choose the proper shape for the "?" part.
(PC only) Panda-san: When ya've decided the shape, click the submit button.
(Vita only) Panda-san: If ya discover the rule, tap the up and down triangles, or move the directional key up and down to choose the proper shape for the "?" part.
(Vita only) Panda-san: When ya've decided the shape, press the O button or tap yer selection.
Panda-san: Ya have exactly thirty seconds to answer.
Panda-san: Don't be impatient, think it over slowly.
Panda-san: That's all the explanation of the rules.
Panda-san: How about it? It's complicated, so did ya forget?
Panda-san: Ya wanna hear the explanation again?
(decision)
Please!
That's enough.
Panda-san: So, are ya ready?
Yuki: Abstract reasoning, huh.... I wonder if it'll be okay.
Arata: It's cool, it's cool. Keep your mind and body mellow.
Yuki: Mellow...
Panda-san: Game start!
-- win Bell One, round one minigame --
Panda-san: Oh! You did it!!
Panda-san: It's y'all's victory in the first round of the Bell One Grand Prix!!
Yuki: Arata-san! We...
Arata: Cleared the first round, it looks like.
Panda-san: The second round is next week, the next match will be an evaluation of your strength.
Panda-san: Go all out and train.
Panda-san: Then, dismissed!
(backstage)
Yuki: Woohoo!!
Yuki: We did it! We did it! We did it! We really did it! Arata-san!
Arata: Yeah. Congratulations, Ace-kun.
Maro: Kuku! Kukukuuu!!
Yuki: Maro, so you're happy for us too.
Arata: Hyahahahahaha. This might be the first time I've seen Maro so excited.
Yuki: He's running in circles all around you, Arata-san.
Yuki: He's so fast!
Maro: Kuku!!
Arata: I'm getting dizzy, okay? Come here, Maro-Maro.
Yuki: Ahahaha. Even Maro is Maro-Maro.
Yuki: Come to think of it, Arata-san, why haven't you given me a nickname?
Arata: Huh?
Yuki: You've given everyone a nickname, haven't you?
Yuki: Kuya-san is O-Sagi-san and Takato-san is O-Taka-san.
Yuki: Chiba-san is Hayaya, Sonoda-san is Sono-Sono, and Yagami is Reo-Reo.
Yuki: But, I'm Ace-kun, right?
Arata: Ace is a nice nickname.
Yuki: Ace isn't a nickname, it's a job.
Yuki: Here, it means the same thing as student council president, doesn't it?
Arata: You want me to give you a nickname?
Yuki: Yes!
Arata: Mmm. I don't know about that.
Yuki: Hey, hey, you'll do it, won't you?
Arata: Mmm. It's hard to give a nickname to someone asking for one.
Arata: I feel kind of like you have really high expectations.
Yuki: Expectations... well, just a little. I'll stop, so please!
Arata: I want to show respect to the ones who name themselves.
Arata: Joker is Joker after all.
Yuki: Oh, that's right.
Arata: There's no nickname more perfect than Joker, and he himself said to call him that, didn't he?
Yuki: Right.
Yuki: Oh, but when you call Yagami by his nickname, he always gets angry. Is that okay?
Arata: But, he's always saying 'I hate my name!'
Yuki: Ah.
Arata: When he says he hates it, you feel sorry for his parents who gave him that name, don't you?
Arata: Right, Maro?
Maro: Kuuu.
Yuki: I see. His name, huh...
Yuki: Then, from now on, please call me Yuki!
Arata: Yuki?
Yuki: Yes! I really like it! My name.
Arata: Yuki, huh...
Arata: Okay. Got it.
Arata: Then from now on, I'll call you Yuki.
Yuki: Right!
Arata: Then I'll keep counting on you, Yuki.
Yuki: Oh...
Arata: Hm? What?
Yuki: No... When you call me by my first name, it feels kind of special.
Arata: Really?
Yuki: It makes me a little happy.
Arata: You're weird, something like this making you happy.
Kuya: Heeey!
Yuki: Oh, everyone!
Yuki: We won! We got through the first round!
Yagami: We know that, you idiot.
Tomo: We were watching in the audience.
Yagami: You jerks never came back, so we got tired of waiting.
Yagami: Hurry the hell up.
Yuki: Haha. Sorry.
Arata: Sorry to keep you waiting.
Kuya: Well done, you two! Now there are two rounds left!
Takato: Congratulations.
Yuki: Yes!
Yagami: Still...
Yuki: What is it, Yagami?
Yagami: No. It's not you, Asahina, it's Arata.
Arata: What is it?
Yagami: I never thought you would accept being his partner.
Yuki: Haha. He refused at first.
Yuki: But when I did my best and begged, he said okay.
Arata: Although I don't know if I'm any help.
Yagami: I see.
Yagami: Normally, aren't you the kind that turns down a request like that?
Yagami: And there's no guy who would count on you.
Arata: None.
Yuki: That's not true.
Yagami: Even with someone as nosy as Asahina, you would always give them the runaround.
Yagami: So, I guess it's unusual, or unbelievable, I mean.
Yuki: Now see here, Yagami.
Arata: Hyahahahaha. This time is special.
Yuki: Huh?
Arata: It's special.
Yuki: It's special...
Yagami: What are you grinning for? It's creepy.
Yuki: It's nothing.
(Yuki: But after all, the ring of 'special' makes me happy.)
Arata: In the end, it's because this time the fate of the school depends on it.
Arata: I'll do my best.
(Yuki: For the school, huh.)
Yuki: That's right...
(Yuki: Of course that's right. Yeah...)
(Yuki: Why am I a little disappointed?)
Kuya: You'll do your best, huh. We're absolutely counting on you.
Kuya: Alright! Let's start today's party!!
Yuki: Huh! A party!?
Kuya: That's right! To celebrate you getting through the first round of the Bell One!
Kuya: And to pray for victory in the next fight, we'll make it really exciting!!
Yuki: Woohoo! I approve!!
Yagami: Well, why not?
Tomo: I...
Yuki: Don't say you're not attending because it's annoying.
Tomo: Yeah, yeah. Alright.
Yuki: Tomo's joining too!!
Yuki: Where shall we have the party? At the cafeteria? Or the dorm cafeteria?
Arata: The dorm cafeteria would be nice.
Yuki: Then, let's ask Dora-chan to makes us food!
Yagami: Ugh. Curry again.
Arata: That would be okay too, but I've got just the thing.
Yuki: Just the thing? What is it?
Arata: The funazushi arrived from home just yesterday.
Yagami: Funazushi?
Yuki: It arrived!?
Takato: That really is good timing.
Kuya: Funazushi, you say? I've never eaten it so I definitely want to try it!!
Kuya: Kasahara-kun. Yagami-kun. By all means, let us try it!!
Yagami: Hell no!
Tomo: Funazushi, that's that stuff from the Ball Tournament, isn't it? Honestly, I'd rather pass too...
Arata: No, no. We're all celebrating with funazushi.
Yuki: Funazushi... If I remember correctly, there's rotten rice in the belly of the fish...
Takato: It's not spoiled, it's fermented by lactic acid.
Kuya: Come on, Yuki. You're the party's guest of honor.
Yuki: Oh, no... It's so sudden, I'm not mentally prepared for funazushi...
Kuya: Let's go! To the dorm cafeteria!! Dora-chan and the funazushi are waiting for us!!
Arata: Come on, let's go.
Yuki: Uwah! You don't both have to grasp my arms!!
Yuki: I mean, really, wait a minute...
Yuki: I hope there's other delicious food!!
