Episode 6
Big sister, what time do you think you'll be back today?
Mom is on night shift, so I make dinner.
Ah It might be late at night.
I see, you have a match today.
Oh, sorry I can't go.
No, don't worry about it.
I'll definitely come to support you at the
national tournament, so do your best today!
I'll do my best.
I'm off.
Okay, take care!
Next person. Yes, please give me your entry sheet.
It's the Ultra High Power Dream!
Hey! Are you seriously going with that lame name?
Why not? It's cool!
No, it's impossible.
I'll think of a proper name instead, so wait.
Huh?
But I've already memorized the script.
Script?
It's the team representative speech introducing the rocket.
Changing the name of the rocket shouldn't affect it.
Excuse me, there's a line behind you
The main thing is the launch, so
the current name should be fine, right?
Come on, let's finish the registration quickly.
Yes, thank you!
There are quite a lot of participating schools.
By the way, why is the teacher here too?
Well, it's natural since I'm the advisor.
I didn't know you were the advisor.
This is my first time knowing that.
I cheer you on!
That's reassuring.
So, the team that flies the highest wins?
No.
In this competition, first you set the target altitude and flight time, then you aim for a launch that matches those perfectly.
In short, the error directly translates to the score.
Which means
The lower the score, the better.
I see.
However, today's wind direction is unstable.
So, don't put too much trust in the practice shot data.
Hey everyone, long time no see!
Kei-san.
Hey there!
How is it? How are you doing?
No problems at all.
We probably won't meet in the main tournament,
so let's get along well, senpai.
That's sad.
I hope you guys can make it through the preliminaries together.
By the way, you haven't forgotten what you owe me from that time, right?
Of course. I made sure to bring my wallet today.
That's the spirit.
By the way, is Raimon-san the leader of this team?
It's president umi!
Oh, Konohoshi-san.
Let's do our best in our speeches.
I'm looking forward to the introduction of Konohoshi-san's rocket.
Yes.
Well then, see you at the launch.
Alright, let's beat Kei and win the championship!
Yeah!
Eng Sub by Community Subs
Yeah!
Eng Sub by Community Subs
In our team,
we want to incorporate different ideas from last year,
so after designing with the shared 3D CAD of the department,
we used a 3D printer borrowed from
the architecture design department to create streamlined fins.
Ah that was from the teacher,
who told us to advertise the school, so we had no choice.
She is very good at capturing the audience attention.
Where?
Umika? Are you okay?
Huh?
Well then, we will now proceed with the first launch of Tatsuoka Science and Technology High School.
Alright okay.
Launch preparation complete.
No low-flying objects.
Countdown starts.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1!
Ignition!
Parachute deployed!
Payload recovery confirmed.
The egg appears to be intact.
The results are in!
Altitude reached: 243 meters.
Flight duration: 48.84 seconds.
Score: 32.36.
Currently in first place in the preliminaries!
It's almost exactly the target value, no way.
Sorry, I forgot to mention it in the speech earlier.
As a measure against today's wind direction
and atmospheric pressure,
we adjusted the weight and center of gravity.
Also, as part of the experiment, we installed
a small camera on the aircraft.
We will upload the footage from the sky
to the internet later
so please check it out if you like.
That's all, thank you.
Fujino Saki High School,
please prepare.
Yes.
Umika-chan.
Umika, are you ready?
I'm okay.
Alright, let's go!
It's okay, it's okay.
Now I understand clearly.
I can never become like Akizuki-san.
Switching.
It's okay, Umika-chan.
In times like this, take a deep breath.
Launch preparations complete!
No low-flying objects.
Countdown begins.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Launch!
Why?
Damn Is it a contact failure with the igniter?
No way.
It's okay, there's still a second chance.
That's right, if you can fly perfectly on
the second try, there won't be any problems!
It's still too early to give up.
Launch preparations complete!
5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Launch!
Oops, did Fujino Misaki High School's second launch
exceed the target altitude by far?
We've mostly finished cleaning up.
The teacher said he would carry the big luggage to the car.
It's all over now.
Matataki-chan.
Raimon-san.
Good job on the launch.
Um, this is, well.
Sorry, I think it's better to return what I borrowed today.
Matataki-chan, wait!
You're fine.
Huh?
It doesn't matter if you win or lose.
Whether it's this club or anywhere else,
it's all the same to you.
This was the only place for me.
Don't bother me anymore.
I'll take the small luggage back on the bus.
Akeuchi-san, go home in the teacher car.
Take it easy.
Let's make an even more amazing rocket next time.
Together, everyone.
I can't.
Huh?
I can't do it.
I can't speak well like Akizuki-san,
nor can I become a cool leader.
Even in making rockets,
I was just a useless burden until the end.
We can't even promote the club we all made
to an official school activity.
Everything, everything nothing
I can't even help Akeuchi-san.
I I
I can't even take Akeuchi-san
to space.
Umika!
How long are you going to sleep?
What?
Stop being a shut-in and go get some fresh air.
Please go shopping.
Konohoshi-san.
It's been a while since the tournament.
Your rocket launch was impressive, Konohoshi-san.
This isn't sarcasm or anything,
but when your rocket cut through the wind and flew straight,
it really made my heart soar.
Even though the weather wasn't the best that day,
the trajectory towards the sky was beautiful,
and it was powerful, making me excited to watch.
So, I wanted to make sure to convey this feeling properly.
It was everyone's effort.
Because it was a rocket that everyone built.
Yes. Including you, the leader.
No, that's not true.
I just said I wanted to make a rocket.
I didn't have any power.
I'm not a leader.
If you don't mind, can I ask you something?
What was the initial trigger that
made Konohoshi-san want to make a rocket?
To search for companions who could understand my words, into space.
Yes, that's an interesting idea.
I think it's romantic and wonderful.
Ah Akizuki-san, you are kind.
But in reality, I can't go anywhere.
I don't have a place anywhere.
But neither Takaragi-san, Raimon-san, nor Akeuchi-san
laughed at your dream. Right?
Your future dream is really cool.
Let's aim for space together.
It sounds fun to aim for space with everyone.
Communicating with aliens is a romantic idea for humanity.
Why not aim for space as you like?
If those words that came out of your mouth are truly your own.
The place you wanted to belong to might be on this planet too.
You wanted it, right? A place to belong.
It's good that you found one here too.
Because of me everything got ruined.
Then you should rebuild that place again.
Like a rocket kicking off the hard ground to launch into the sky,
We can't fly high with shaky footing either.
Solid ground will help you fly farther and higher.
Hey, can't you stand up anymore?
Are you going to give up everything like this?
I the fact that I don't have a place to belong,
I was always scared of that.
That I am here,
I had no confidence in that at all.
But if,
If there is a place for me here,
If I can stay here,
I want to stand up and make sure.
Even if it looks uncool,
I want to stand up properly,
So that someday I can fly from here.
Feel free to contact me anytime.
Yes, thank you very much.
Akizuki-san, good luck at the national tournament.
Yes, thank you. See you.
I'm looking forward to competing with you again next year.
I will talk about the future with everyone.
Okay.
Akeuchi-san?
No luggage either.
Could it be that she left.
Because I said such terrible things.
Did Akeuchi-san disappear.
Umika, thank you.
Let's go to space, definitely.
I finally realized.
The place that everyone gave me.
I decided to protect it properly.
