           Ai:   She came out of the television!!
        Rolex:   Your friend has now been born.
           Ai:   Th-then. I came out of the television, like her. So,
                 that's a Video Girl.!

 <6>
          Mai:   I'm Mai Kamio. Nice to meet you.

 <8>
          Mai:   I'll do anything for you. What do you want to do?
       Matsui:   Un-unbelievable, it's like a dream.
                 Your hand.
                 I've never heard of a story where a girl comes out
                 of the television.
                 Give it to me.
          Mai:   Okay.
        Sound:   Su.

 <10>
           Ai:   Haa. Haa. Haa.
                 I'm not a normal human being. Oh my god. It's such a
                 shock to me. Shit.
        Rolex:   Fu.
                 I'm going to be entertained from now on. There are
                 no cases of Video Girls meeting each other before.
                 It's very interesting.. But, I can see the result,
                 the imperfect thing can't win over the perfect
                 thing. And also interesting, the result of an non
                 useful person who's not worthy of using Gokuraku has
                 possession of a Video Girl.

 <11>
        Youta:   A kiss. Are you talking seriously?
        Moemi:   Yes.
        Youta:   Serious?.
        Moemi:   It's not the type of thing to be talking about in
                 the middle of the road. Let's go somewhere where
                 people won't watch.
        Youta:   Why do you want to kiss? Does she want to kiss ME?
                 No. It's not like that.
                 Is it okay if anyone kisses her?. You're not that
                 kind of girl, right, Moemi-chan.

 <12>
        Moemi:   It's kinda exciting, isn't it?
        Youta:   Hey, Moemi-chan.
                 Is it because of me that you want to do it?
        Moemi:   I won't answer the kind of person who asks that kind
                 of question.

 <13>
        Youta:   Sees. Really. I can kiss her. But. She's like a doll
                 without a heart.
                 I've experienced this feeling before.
                 That's right. It's Ai-chan. She's similar to Ai-chan
                 when she first got out from her tape.
                 She did many things for me the best she could as a
                 Video Girl, but just ignored my feelings. Like that
                 feeling. I began to like Ai-chan because she was so
                 imperfect. If she were a perfect Video Girl, then.
                 Moemi-chan being like this. I. don't like.
                 .I can't. Sorry.

 <14>
        Moemi:   Yes! I knew you would say it.
                 Nobuko-chan must think, "He kissed me, but he went
                 to another girl," so I'll explain to her that
                 Moteuchi-kun isn't like that.
                 What just happened is evidence.
        Youta:   Oh, I was tricked. Moemi-chan. But. I feel
                 comfortable now.

 <15>
        Moemi:   The result of your kindness hurt both Ai-chan and
                 Nobuko-chan, but.
                 Your kindness is important, I think. So, please
                 don't lose it.
                 I'll do something for you, so don't be depressed.
                 Starting tomorrow, we'll have finals, so if you
                 think about something, you'll flunk.
        Youta:   Well. If I kissed you unexpectedly, what were you
                 going to do?
        Moemi:   I won't answer the kind of person who asks that kind
                 of question.

 <16>
        Youta:   Anyway, Moemi-chan became so giddy. Maybe she's
                 supposed to be like that.
                 She's more lively than what happened with Takashi.
                 To love isn't always a success.
                 If love becomes sad, people feel so much pain that
                 is impossible to explain, but again, people have to
                 love someone. Stupid humans.
       Matsui:   Are you sure?
          Mai:   Yes. If you can cheer up.

 <17>
        Sound:   Goku. Do do do do do do do.

 <18>
        Sound:   Doki doki doki doki doki.
                 Ba.
                 Dokun dokun dokun dokun dokun dokun.
       Matsui:   Even though she looks calm. Her face is embarrassed,
                 too. It seems like she knows the way to entertain
                 men.
                 Are you embarrassed?
        Sound:   Dokun dokun dokun dokun dokun.
          Mai:   Yeah. A little bit. But, I'm fine.

 <19>
       Matsui:   She really seems to listen to me._Then it's not
                 worth it to restrain my desires.
                 I'll touch you.
        Sound:   Do do do do do.
          Mai:   Yes.
        Sound:   Gu.
          Mai:   Ha.
        Sound:   Dokun dokun dokun.
       Matsui:   S-soft. And warm.

 <20>
          Mai:   Ha ha.
       Matsui:   How soft and warm a girl's body is.
          Mai:   Ha ha.
       Matsui:   Ha ha ha.
        Sound:   Do do do do do do do do.
                 Dokun dokun dokun dokun dokun.
       Matsui:   Mai-chan.
        Sound:   Do. Gaku.
       Matsui:   I beginning to think of Mai as my old-time
                 girlfriend. I don't care who she is anymore. Anyway,
                 I just want to be with her forever.

 <21>
       Matsui:   This room has air conditioning, but these clothes
                 look so hot on her.
                 I'll make you comfortable.
        Sound:   Su.
       Matsui:   Um? Where. Where and how can I take this skirt off.
        Sound:   Su.
                 Gi--.

 <22>
        Sound:   Fusa.
       Matsui:   Let me do it.
        Sound:   Ba.
                 Gaga.
       Matsui:   Lie face down on this.

 <23>
        Sound:   Goku.
       Matsui:   Don't move.
                 Okay.
                 This girl listens to anything I say. This is exactly
                 heaven!!
        Sound:   Dokun dokun dokun dokun dokun dokun.
       Matsui:   I feel like if I move my eyes off Mai-chan, she
                 would disappear, so I didn't go home, and I thought
                 that my parents would worry, but I didn't go to call
                 them either. I don't care about finals starting
                 tomorrow. And, I don't care about anything anymore,
                 if she's with me.

 <24>
           Ai:   Hey. Would you give me an honest answer to my
                 question?
     Gokuraku:   Yeah, what is it.
           Ai:   I was born from a television, right. I'm a Video
                 Girl, right.
     Gokuraku:   Nu.
