"Everyone, Kaleido Star is about to start." "When you watch Kaleido Star, I want you to keep your room brightly lit, and sit as far from the TV as you can." "Well, well, well." "Hello everyone, I'm Yuri Killian." "Today is the day the Circus Festival will take place." "Three years ago, on this day, I was here with Layla." "And our glory also started from here." "This time, my partner is Sora." "There's no way to erase the mistakes I made in the past, but this time I intend to do everything in my power for Sora, Layla, and Kaleido Stage." "But, I wonder if Sora really can tolerate this cruel stage." "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" "Too slow." "It's too early this time!" ""Cruel Amazing Festival"" ""Cruel Amazing Festival"" "The school Yuri's attending should be around here, but..." "I found him." "Why don't we stop here today?" "Not yet." "Okay, then, one more hour." "Then let's end today's training." "Resting is another part of practice, after all." "Yes." "So this is the practice room for the school Yuri is attending." "What kind of maneuver are they working on?" "Anyway, I'm glad to know Sora is safe." "Mr. Mute and Miss Alice, thank you for helping us today." "You're welcome." "By the way, can we come tomorrow too?" "Oh..." "You don't have to." "We learned a lot." "So, please?" "Say it's all right." "Is it okay with you?" "Since they're nice enough to offer their help, it's impolite to say no." "Don't you think so?" "Yes..." "That's true." "Then please come and help us." "Great!" "See you tomorrow, then." "Yes." "Good night." "Good night." "Sora, I'll walk you to your hotel." "Well, but I didn't book a hotel." "What?" "!" "Then, why don't you stay at my place?" "WHAT?" "!" "Well... but... it's like I'm asking you too much." "Hi, Sora!" "Oh Ken?" "!" "Hi, Sora!" "What a coincidence!" "What are you doing?" "Well..." "I was... taking a walk." "Taking a walk?" "But you're breathing hard." "Are you okay?" "Yeah..." "Anyway, if you need a place to stay, I'll find a place for you." "Well, but..." "It doesn't bother me even one bit if you stay at my place." "No, Sora is a part of the Kaleido Stage cast." "Kaleido Stage will look after her." "Thank you for everything!" "Get a good night's sleep." "Okay!" "Yes, there is." "Oh, good." "Sora, you've got a room." "Really?" "Thank you, Ken." "So shall we charge the room to Kaleido Stage?" "No." "Please charge it to me, Ken Robbins." "And please keep this secret from her." "Yes, sir." "Angel's maneuver." "I'll make sure to perfect that maneuver." "And I'm going to win." "So I guess the ones I need to watch out for are Mr.  Mrs. Patrova and the street performer pair, Mute and Alice." "Well, I did refine my Demon Spiral even further, after all." "We'll be the victors, no mistake." "What is this?" "I'm going to compete against the maneuvers of the world's top stars, and yet I'm not quite fired up." "Something is missing." "I wonder why." "Don't try to force a jump." "Okay!" "Feel out the moment when your body gains the most power, then jump!" "And maintain a beautiful pose as you go up." "Sora..." "Are you aware of your weak point?" "Yes." "Ken told me before." "Since I've only been doing big maneuvers, my body's unbalanced." "Yes." "But even with only the basics they teach at circus school, you shouldn't lose this much balance." "In Japan, there are hardly any circus schools, so I haven't gone." "Really?" "To think she was able to perform the legendary great maneuver without..." "I'll work hard." "I'll endure it no matter how tough it is." "This maneuver is called the "Angel's Maneuver"" "because it gives the impression of weightless, just like the feathers of an angel's wings." "Just like a ballerina, in order to make your body seem light as a feather and maintain a beautiful pose, you need strong grounding in the basics." "I even endured Mr. Leon's special training and passed!" "Just like I did then, no matter how tough it gets," "I'll cover for my lack of basics through force of will!" "So, please, Yuri!" "Sora, when it's you saying it, I start to feel like you really can." "All right." "Then, let's continue practice." "Yes!" "I have to master my timing." "And I have to pose beautifully." "What?" "!" "What does this mean?" "Why's Sora's name registered?" "Her partner is Yuri." "I see... there was that method." "So she still hasn't given up on victory." "Interesting." "I know now... what was missing in this festival." "Sora... it was you!" "Fool, try to knock me down by crashing into me!" "OKAY!" "Please crash into my back." "What?" "And I was this close too..." "Yes!" "Too fast!" "Too slow!" "Pay more attention!" "Yes!" "Demon Spiral!" "Her move has changed." "What's this feeling?" "I can hardly wait for the festival." "I want to compete with Sora in the festival, soon!" "I want to compete with Sora." "Don't forget to pose!" "Yes!" "In only a few days, she managed to reach this point..." "Impressive as ever." "Now, if she can just maintain that beautiful pose..." "Amazing..." "I've never seen that maneuver." "It really looks like an angel's wings." "I can do this!" "The day has finally come." "Everything will be determined today." "Sora!" "Hi, Sora!" "Mia, Miss Sarah, you came?" "Where is Anna?" "Un, deux, trois, un, deux, trois... un chien!" "Mr. Charlie." "He's the real thing!" "It seems she was able to meet the clown she admired, Mr. Charlie." "Anna looks happy." "Yuri, it's been a long time, hasn't it?" "Yeah." "Thank you for coming." "I know traveling expenses are not cheap." "If you're concerned about travel expenses, Miss Sarah negotiated that with the Boss for us." "So all expenses are paid by Kaleido Stage." "What?" "Really?" "So I'm the only one paying everything out of my own pocket." "Well, I guess, there's nothing I can do now." "Sora, make sure you win!" "So we can participate in the festival together three years from now." "Yes!" "Oh!" "I forgot to bring my good luck pendant!" "Oh..." "I might be done for." "Ouch!" "What are you doing?" "!" "Oh, excuse me." "Hey, that's Yuri Killian." "It sure is..." "He should stay in retirement." "The partner he's with..." "Isn't she the girl who paired with Layla Hamilton in that legendary great maneuver?" "Yep, that's right." "So they're a pair of big shots." "That stinks." "Sora..." "May..." "Sora, I see you don't know when to give up either." "We're going to win!" "We will not lose to the two of you!" "I can't wait to see the result." "Leon..." "Yuri Killian..." "Hi." "Long time, no see." "What?" "Did you meet each other when you participated in the festival three years ago?" "Leon?" "Whoever thought that we'd see each other at this place again?" "Perhaps a match with you is my unavoidable destiny." "Then, do you want to pair with me?" "With me as I am now, the one they call the God of Death?" "You have changed." "I learned from you." "You taught me what I need to do to climb to the top in this world." "You should place more value in your current partner." "What's going on?" "Did something happen between Leon and Mr. Yuri three years ago?" "I... don't know." "I don't." "I don't." "By the way, maybe, you don't know that Miss Layla is here." "Really?" "Yes." "To present the trophy to the winners." "I wonder which one of us is going to receive the trophy from Miss Layla." "And now, for the opening of this International Circus Festival, we'd like the previous winner, Miss Layla Hamilton, to say a few words!" "Layla!" "This is a very cruel place." "But there's also a step forward that we can't take unless we overcome this place." "Compete with each other, train each other, improve each other, and in order to take the first step toward your dream, give this everything you have." "Sorry, sorry." "My hand slipped." "But I see they don't call you the God of Death for nothing." "Even if you destroy your partner, you're certainly not destroyed." "Entry No.5, Mr.  Mrs. Patrova." "Mr.  Mrs. Patrova always look like such a happily married couple." "Very soon, it will be May and Leon's turn." "Then after that, it will be Mute and Alice." "Then Sora's turn will be after that." "Oh..." "This is more nervewracking than when I'm in competition." "I know, I know." "Sora, you want some water?" "Oh, thank you." "What's wrong?" "Well..." "Since Mr. Mute and Alice aren't here yet, I wonder what happened." "Now that you mention it..." "Leave them alone." "Don't worry about other people." "But they helped me practice every day." "If something happened to them because of that..." "Oh..." "Did you exploit your rivals' goodwill?" "For you, that's not half bad." "You're wrong." "I didn't mean it like that." "What?" "Don't pretend to be little Miss Goody Two-Shoes." "In the end, it's the same as if you used them, isn't it?" "Lt'd be nice if they just don't show up." "Let's go." "Yes." "I never meant..." "I'll step out and check on them." "No." "Leave them alone." "Mr. Yuri..." "They'll be here." "What?" "Sorry for being late." "No. 8, Mute and Alice." "Be ready and stand by in the waiting room." "They made it." "Mr. Mute and Ms. Alice, I'm glad you made it." "Oh, nice... costumes." "Both of you look like... angels..." "That's right." "Excuse us, but we will do the Angel's Maneuver before you do." "Since you used us, don't you think it's only fair?" "Oh..." "I never meant..." "Did you think we'd just help you with good intentions?" "In order to make everyone's dream come true, we cannot lose." "We did nothing against the rules." "Sora, are you all right?" "Yes, I'm all right." "What's wrong with me?" "I felt a little sick." "Oh... but I think I'm..." "I'm fine now." "So..." "I told you, don't screw up the timing!" "I did it right!" "If we can't win this year, we don't have another chance." "I already know that." "Honestly." "I hate that Kaleido Stage." "Finally, after Layla Hamilton retired, they had to send two pairs this year." "Oh, you're here..." "Thanks to you, our dream broke into pieces." "Thanks a lot." "Are you satisfied?" "Nobody is wrong." "This is that kind of world." "You were prepared for this, weren't you?" "Yes." "Well, it's almost time to go." "Yes." "This is a very cruel place." "But there's also a step forward that we can't take unless we overcome this place." "And in order to take the first step towards my dream..." "Demon!" "Spiral!" "What kind of maneuver is this?" "!" "Can he grab her?" "It's impossible." "It's even more amazing than before." "The hall is dead silent." "Everyone's been enchanted by a demon." "By a demon..." "What is this?" "I feel out of place." "It should be the same applause as usual, but I'm afraid to win this applause." "During the practice, we almost managed perfection." "So, we're going to perfect this here." "We can do it!" "The Angel's Maneuver..." "No, this isn't even close to the Angel's Maneuver." "Alice!" "Alice!" "Mute, hold on!" "Ouch..." "I screwed up." "Mute..." "Mr. Mute..." "We never thought of imitating someone." "But, because you suddenly decided to participate..." "Stop, Alice." "Sorry, Sora." "We want to win in the festival and get the world's attention, and organize a performance team with these guys right here, and travel." "That is our dream." "Excuse us, but we will do the Angel's Maneuver before you do." "In the end, it's same as if you used them, isn't it?" "Thanks to you, our dream broke into pieces." "Thanks a lot." "No..." "No." "This isn't the place I was aiming for." "The stage I was aiming for is..." "The stage I saw with my mother and father was more fun, and..." "Sorry, Miss Layla..." "I should never have come here." "She's not coming down." "Why?" "The Angel's Maneuver..." "I think I heard about it before." "Angel's Maneuver?" "Sora!" "Give me your hands!" "Can you still continue?" "Sorry..." "I can't." "Sora..." "She's going to quit?" "Sora..." "Is she crying?" "Isn't it the Angel's Maneuver?" "I've never seen it before." "I didn't know Kaleido Stage had that kind of talent." "I wonder why she quit in the middle of it." "If she did it all the way through, she might have won." "What?" "Did she just give up?" "Mastering the Angel's Maneuver to that extent..." "Come in." "Well..." "Miss Layla, I'm sorry." "I can't believe you withdrew." "You're the worst." "You disgraced the festival." "You ran away from the stage where a serious match was." "I'm disappointed in you, Sora." "I'm sorry." "I thought walking Miss Layla's path could take me to my dream, but I don't know anymore." "What should I aim for?" "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" "Sora, do you really intend to just end things like this?" "And so, I ended up coming back to Japan." "My old friends..." "Welcome back, Sora." "A loving family..." "Welcome back, Sora." "This... this is fine."
