"Everyone, Kaleido Star is about to start." "When you watch Kaleido Star, please keep your room brightly lit, and sit as far from the TV as you can, okay?" "Well, everyone, it's May." "I was so depressed because I failed last time, and I was moping about it all by myself." "But I realized something after Meryl talked to me." "I've just been looking for excuses, blaming things on somebody else." "My name is May Wong, an athlete who never gives up." "I will not let anybody get in my way." "Sora, you're not the only one trying to get to the place where Miss Layla is!" "Tattoo Kiss, the beginning is red and black passions" "Sometimes, we rely on our contrary hearts" "Tattoo Kiss, the last resort is a mission which changes the future" "New Wings Tattoo Kiss, the last resort is a mission which changes the future" "There is no place for ambiguous answers in love" "Even while pretending not to see the impossible reality, we bet" "Hard to obtain truth." "Can you feel me now?" "Say what to myself who gets excited easily?" "I'm confused, what to say" "Dreamin' the never-waking dream, the falling fate" "Don't stop lovin' can't stop lovin' you Ya ya ya" "I believe in you even if I lose everything for it" "Still lovin' can't stop loving' you No no no" "Tattoo Kiss" "Congratulations!" "Thank you..." "But I wonder if this is okay?" "I think it's okay." "Really?" "Leon said you passed, after all." "It means he's acknowledged you." "I wonder..." "He did, he did." "Congratulations for being able to participate in the festival." "Sora, good luck." "Thanks." "I'll do my best." "Are you concerned about May?" "Because I'm useless..." "I understand how you feel, but just think about the festival for right now." "He's right, Sora." "Your goal is..." "Okay, say it with me, everybody:" "Victory!" "Yeah, that's right." "Only one of us is able to participate in the festival." "So, in order for me to participate in the festival, I have to beat May." "Yes, yes, yes." "Hello." "Oh, Kalos." "What?" "Sora's here, but..." "What?" "!" "The final test?" "What?" "!" "The final test?" ""The Two Amazing Demons"" ""The Two Amazing Demons"" "I'll have them prepare for the final test right away." "Certainly, if she is going to participate in the festival, she can't sidestep this test." "But if she missteps once, her career on the stage may end." "Sora can pull through this." "I believe that." "The final test..." "If I can pass this, that Phoenix Ticket will be mine." "I mustn't think about May." "It makes me nervous." "I wonder what kind of test it is?" "No matter what kind of test it is, she'll be okey-dokey." "Everyone is cheering you." "Thank you." "I will do my best." "Miss Layla..." "Sora, I will ask you one more time." "Do you seriously want to participate in the Circus Festival no matter what happens?" "Yes!" "I see." "That's fine, then." "Please do your best." "Yes, I will." "I have to pass this test." "No matter how difficult the maneuver is, I have to." "I have no other alternative." "I'm ready." "Climb up." "What do you want me to do?" "Let's see." "I want you to do a layout somersault." "What?" "What did he say?" "What is this about?" "What did he say?" "What is this about?" "What's a layout somersault?" "Among the trapeze maneuvers, that's the most basic among of all the basics." "The performer spins once, and grabs the catcher's hands." "That's it?" "That's right." "All right." "Wait." "Remove the safety net." "WHAT?" "!" "No way!" "You can't!" "When you perform in the festival, you have neither a safety net nor a lifeline." "That's true, but..." "A maneuver as basic as this should not require a net." "I will create a chance for you to show off." "That's what he said to May." "I will create a chance for you to show off." "I will create a perfect chance for you to show off in today's show." "Will you fail the final test before you take it?" "Please remove the net." "Hurry." "Yes." "A good attitude, Sora." "Show me how ready you are to be a real star." "Let's begin." "I'll jump next time." "Sora..." "Jump like you mean it." "Hesitating can be dangerous, Sora." "It's perfect timing." "I can do this!" "I can't jump." "Sora!" "I can't believe this." "When I thought of what I'd do if he doesn't catch me..." "I couldn't jump." "Please let me try one more time." "When you do it for real in the festival, are you going to ask me to do it one more time too?" "But..." "Please let me try one more..." "Sora!" "It's unseemly." "Sorry." "The way it is now, we'll have no partcipants in this year's festival." "I know." "I thought Leon Oswald must have wanted to participate in the festival in order to wipe out his shame from three years ago." "But, it seems I was wrong." "What is his purpose in staying here?" "I heard the rumor that he was looking for a partner who can match his level." "But all the partners he had in the past left the stage." "Because he treats them all like he did May Wong." "But, if they can leave the stage over something like that," "I think they'd be better off if they quit and found another career." "Knowing that, and he still invited Sora." "It means Leon must have thought that Sora could be his partner." "And he thought he could win in the festival." "Even now, Sora is still trying to follow your footsteps." "In order for her to surpass Layla Hamilton, she has no other choice but to win in the festival." "I think that's the starting line." "So you haven't given up on your wish yet." "That's right, you're the one who was first attracted to Sora's potential and pressured her into appearing on stage." "I will do anything if I can make money." "Kalos, if you were capable of that," "Kaleido Stage would never wind up in a pinch." "That was meant as a compliment." "I wonder if Sora is all right." "It's impossible to do something like that." "Especially, after she saw what happened to May." "I think we should leave her alone right now." "Okay." "I even endured that special training." "I wasted everything." "I disappointed Miss Layla." "Sora, you're so stupid." "But I don't have the confidence to pair with Mr. Leon." "What should I do?" "You were able to perform even the legendary great maneuver with Layla." "To think that you can't even do a basic maneuver with Leon..." "I can't trust Leon." "A real star doesn't change her shine depending on who's there." "Are you saying that I can't be a real star?" "I don't know." "But I know for sure that being a real star is something very distant for you because of the way you're acting right now." "It's far..." "It's far, isn't it?" "It is endlessly far away." "Sora!" "Yes." "This is bad!" "It seems that May hasn't been in her room since before last night." "What?" "May?" "Sorry, sorry..." "Get the ball, Sis!" "Hurry, hurry!" "Pass, pass!" "Watch what you're doing." "Okay..." "She looks kinda depressed, huh?" "Yeah." "Meryl..." "As I thought, you're here." "I found her." "Sora..." "Why did you come here?" "Did you come here to laugh at me?" "No..." "May, I have something I want to talk to you about..." "Stop it!" "What could you have to say to me now?" "!" "Leon chose you." "You won." "Be more proud of your victory." "And laugh at me, the one who lost!" "May, I won't laugh at..." "That's the thing about you that makes me sick!" "As a newcomer, I picked a fight with you, the top star, and just when I was feeling like hot stuff, thinking I grabbed away the lead role away from you, in the end I wasn't seen as anything but a tool to train you..." "He injured my shoulder, and I ran away." "Isn't that funny?" "Laugh at me." "Laugh at me... at least." "No way do I want your sympathy!" "No, you're wrong, May." "I couldn't pass Leon's final test." "I'm afraid of Leon." "I was afraid of him, and I couldn't release my hands from the swing." "What?" "Then, the partner has not..." "No." "It hasn't been decided yet." "You didn't come back to the dormitory, so you didn't know what happened." "So, I thought I had to tell you this." "Even though you told me, what I can do?" "That is..." "I don't know." "But, I don't know what I should do either." "So, what I want to say is... well, I'm not sure..." "When did you get something like that?" "You guys are so hesitant!" "You're irritating me so much." "Sora!" "Yes." "Did you come all the way here to find May and tell her something like that?" "Well... kind of..." "May!" "What?" "When did you start giving up so easily?" "I'm..." "If you act like that, you should have listened to what I said, and kept skating!" "You can't do anything?" "You don't know what to do?" "To me, it looks like you just don't want to do it." "You say something like that, but I was abandoned by Leon!" "You're wrong." "You were injured because you didn't have the skills." "To think you can't handle a little ad lib like that." "If you want to blame something, blame your lack of skills." "Don't act like you're the victim." "The one who abandoned you is you, May!" "Yourself!" "The May I remember is:" "When someone told you "no," you used to work so hard so that the person would never be able to say "no" to you again." "You never said you couldn't do something, no matter what!" "Ow!" "Don't talk to my sis like that!" "Sis?" "Dammit!" "You dumb kids!" "Come and get us!" "Nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah!" "Yeah!" "Yeah!" "Oh, I know." "I may still have a chance too." "May..." "Thank you, Meryl." "I remembered how bad I am at giving up." "I'll challenge Leon one more time." "It sounds like you've gotten motivated." "Yes." "I also have to thank you too, Sora." "Thank you for taking the time and coming all the way down here to let me know that you were disqualified." "I'll be his REAL partner this time." "Aren't you afraid of him?" "As if!" "Once he sees my new maneuver," "I'm sure Leon will grab my hands this time." "And with that maneuver, I'm going to participate in the festival!" "I'll make the world acknowledge me like they did Miss Layla!" "A new maneuver..." "That's right." "And that name is:" "Demon Spiral!" "Demon Spiral..." "What kind of maneuver is that?" "Obviously I don't know yet." "As for the practice room, I'm going to use it." "Guys, I'm going back to the dormitory again." "So, can you tell that to Mom and Dad?" "Yes!" "She's gone back to the sis we know!" "Really, she's such trouble." "Well, Sora, what are you going to do?" "Will you just stand there and watch her?" "No, I don't want to." "But..." "Did you say you can't trust your partner?" "Yes." "You're the same as May." "You're blaming your lack of skill on your partner." "Before you say this and that about your partner, are you doing enough to earn your partner's trust?" "You can't be my partner the way you are now." "I'll reduce your part further tomorrow." "Instead of worrying about that, improve your skills so that you're good enough to satisfy me." "That is important, but I think the Kids' Stage is important too." "You talk pretty, but aren't you just running away?" "Didn't you face Layla Hamilton with all your might?" "Why don't you do the same for this guy?" "Because..." "If you stay like this, your path will stay blocked." "You're the only one who can cut your way through it." "Get it together!" "Yes." "Thank you very much." "It's true." "I was facing to Miss Layla like a daredevil." "But I don't have confidence to act the same to Mr. Leon." "How on Earth can I..." "First of all, I don't like his attitude!" "That's right!" "But, if you ask who else could play his role..." "There is nobody." "That's true." "If we want to have an eye on winning in the festival..." "Why can't Sora do it by herself?" "Yeah!" "Unfortunately, the rule is that she has to be in a pair." "Aw..." "That guy..." "Just watch, I'll do all of his maneuvers easily in three years." "Go, Rosetta!" "Excuse me, but I asked everybody to gather today because I wanted encourage Sora." "So, if you encourage someone, could you please encourage Sora?" "Oh..." "That's okay." "I'm more than thankful the way all of you care about me." "The rest of this is my own problem." "Really..." "Then, for Sora, I'll show you amazing martial arts which can't even be drawn by human hands!" "No, that's not necessary..." "Um..." "No, that's not necessary..." "Here I go!" "You're right!" "It's amazing!" "She's right." "This certainly couldn't be drawn by human hands." "Sora, was it helpful?" "Oh, well... kind of..." "Since nobody is in, the air is cool." "That's right, the cool space where I'm alone is where I belong." "After I joined Kaleido Stage I decided that." "In order for someone like me who just joined Kaleido Stage to bring down a top star like Sora even one minute or one second faster," "I could not afford to goof around with those others." "If they don't like me, they can just not like me." "If they hate me, they can just hate me." "I'm going to win by all means!" "The movement that time..." "Because he didn't have both hands on the bar, that's why he was able to do that kind of unexpected move." "If I can use that move and create a new maneuver..." "One more time..." "I will perfect this maneuver by all means." "I have no other path forward." "In order to surpass Miss Layla, and also in order to be a real Kaleido Star," "I want to participate in the Circus Festival no matter what." "I want to!" "I want to!" "But, I still don't know what I should do even though May already found something and started running toward it." "Taurus found its way out from the darkness." "However, Sagittarius is still engulfed in the darkness." "Sora, if you exert yourself haphazardly, you'll just spin in place." "Then tell me what I'm supposed to do." "Oh, here she is." "Sora!" "Oh, Rosetta, good morning." "This is no time to be exchanging laid-back small talk!" "May said she's going to challenge Leon again." "What?" "!" "She did?" "Who knew you'd be the one to ask me for another challenge." "So, this new maneuver is supposed to be able to satisfy me?" "Of course it will, Leon." "You're the only one who can catch my Demon Spiral." "If you screw up, I will fall." "If you're the God of Death, I'll be a devil!" "Demon Spiral is a challenge from a devil to the God of Death!" "I expect you to accept my challenge." "Here I go." "That's right." "This is my duel with fate!" "Demon Spiral!" "Amazing!" "All kinds of hard luck flocks your way as if it's spurring you on" "Swept away by it, time is over" "Just as it was predicted, take it easy" "I will get you out right away" "Hurry up (Here we go)" "Forcibly only (Drive with the fastest speed)" "The view I look down at every day is the best" "Sunset point (Favorite)" "Harbor light (Stormy night)" "Escape for the sake of tomorrow" "Even I don't have a vacation, I've got an oasis" "I'll turn off the cell phone and charge my love" "Because some pain, you can't soothe with just kindness" "We are alone." "We pass each other" "What's going on?" "At the far end of regret, I encounter my true heart" "Whether I'm crying or laughing, I will be with you" "Next Kaleido Star:" "New Wings" "When I was at Kaleido Stage," "I don't think I looked at the audience's faces much." "And so, the Demon Spiral was amazing." "But no, I can't back down like this." "Being bad at giving up is something I patented!" "If it's with him..." "All right!" "I will show them what I'm like when I'm serious too!" "I'll show them!" "I'll show them!" "Next time Kaleido Star, "Amazing Angelic Counterattack"" "Next time Kaleido Star, "Amazing Angelic Counterattack"" "My wings are my dream and on towards the sky..."
