Flame of life burn away
Here I come!
Their eyes speak of their desires

Too good for them!
So I reach out to the future
We've basically won alread—
It may be a thorny road, but I have nothing to fear
Because you're there with me
Sis,
we should help out—
Nope.
The point
is for them to deal with
this
themselves.
Where do you think you're touching?!
Everyone wanders forever
Eww, majorly gross!
In search of an answer
Hey, stay out of there

Flame of life burn away
This tickles!

Commie Hear ye, all Gamindustri residents far and wide. We take one giant leap toward a new era today. It brings me great pleasure to be together with you all as we welcome this joyous day. As you all know, this world has been torn by strife over the past few years. Lastation, governed by its CPU, the goddess Black Heart. Lowee, governed by its CPU, the goddess White Heart. Leanbox, governed by its CPU, the goddess Green Heart. And Planeptune, governed by myself, the goddess Purple Heart. Share Energy forms the basis of national power in this world. The four nations competed over it, and sometimes we goddesses ourselves came to blows. But now that will become a thing of the past. The treaty of friendship that shall be signed today will prohibit taking Share Energy by force. From this point onward, the only way to acquire it will be by making one's country a better place, which will lead to worldwide development and progress. We hereby swear to overcome the past and create a world filled with hope. Yahoo! Done and dusted! The difference between your two forms never fails to amaze me, Neptune. That aside, what'd you think of my speech, Noire? Well, it wasn't bad... Though I'm pretty sure Histoire wrote it for you. It sure pisses me off that you got to hog the spotlight. C'mon, Blanc. Don't say that! I regret using rock-paper-scissors to decide the speaker. Why don't you just let it go? Saying that now just makes you sound immature. She's right! After all, we're no longer enemies! We're best buds now, right? A month has already passed since that amazing ceremony. You aren't fulfilling any of your responsibilities as CPU, Neptune! Sonic jump! Fiddlesticks! Are you listening to me? Well, I guess these peaceful days just turned my brain to mush! Neptune, CPUs have all kinds of work— Sis! Tea's ready! Thanks, Nepgear! Wanna go head-to-head? Sure! Not you too, Nepgear! Knock it off! Zoinks! Hey, the manual said not to do that! Don't try this at home, kids! Iffy! Compa! Done with work? Yes. I'm on my way to Nep-Nep's place. Oh, then I'll go with you. Under the right rules and regulations— Take a look at this! At the Share Crystal, not me! What about it? The amount of Share Energy gathered in our country's Share Crystal is currently showing a downward trend. There's still a whole bunch. No need to worry, right? Of course there is! You know where we get Shares from, don't you? Oh... The feelings of trust that the citizens place in the CPU who rules them, right? Indeed. This downward trend shows that our citizens are slowly falling out of love with Neptune! Say what? I don't remember doing anything that'd make them hate me. I don't think you've done anything recently that'd make them love you, either. W-Well... Nepgear's right. We're sorry, Lady Histoire. We just happened to overhear the conversation. I don't mind if it's you two. Not you too, Iffy! Are you gonna take Histy's side as well? But you're different, right, Compa? Look at this, Nep-Nep. Huh? "We don't need goddesses." Ack! In order to make these people understand you, you need to work much harder at your job. She hit my weak point for massive damage! I'm in big trouble! It's this nation that's in big trouble! For one thing, CPUs are supposed to devote all their blood, sweat, and tears to their citizens! That is why you possess the great powers that you do. Man, lectures are the worst. With great power comes great responsibility! How can I get away from here? Oh, right! I'll go learn what it means to be a CPU! Huh? Learn? From whom? Uh... Noire! What?! Lastation's Noire! I don't really get what's happening here, you see. Mind explaining to me why a neighboring country's CPU is sleeping at our Basilicom?! Oh, just pretend I'm not here and carry on with your job. I don't mind. Well,I do! We're so sorry, Noire. Sis! What's the big deal? Aren't you here to learn what it means to be a CPU? Sorry, but I'll have to refuse. I don't intend to extend an olive branch to my enemies. Hey, I'm not your enemy! We signed a treaty of friendship! We're budd— Doesn't change the fact that we're still competing over Share Energy. You're still my enemy. See, you keep saying all these totally uncute things! That's why people say you have no friends! I-Ido have a friend! Really? Who? Where are they from? What do they do? Huh? Uh... Well... I'm done with those documents, Sis. Hey there, Uni. Just put them over there. U-Um... I was quite fast this time, wasn't I? I gave it my all— Guess so. You've reached normal levels now, I suppose. Hey! Is Uni that so-called friend of yours? I don't think you can call your sister a friend. You've got the wrong idea. I have other— Really? That's what you say, but aren't you just a loner? No way! Nepgear... Sorry my sister had to butt in. Nah, it's fine. That's how Sis always is with me. Looks like she won't ever praise me unless I do a better job than she would. We all know that's just not gonna happen, though. Uni... I can't even transform yet. That goes for me, Rom, and Ram too. I-I guess... I'm sure I'll be the first out of the four of us to get the ability to transform. That's the spirit! I'm not gonna lose to you! A text from Rom... Why does she know I'm here in Lastation? I told her. She got really jealous. Nepgear and Uni must be having such a nice time hanging out together. Why can't I go visit another country?! Don't be so selfish. I wanna go hang out with Nepgear and Uni too! I'm trying to work. Why?! Why?! Why?! Why?! Why?! Why?! Why?! Why?! Why?! Hey! Shut yer mouth! I said I was working! You friggin' deaf?! You're such a meanie. Let's go, Rom. Wait, Ram! Sorry about that. Don't worry about it. We'd been fighting each other for a long time. But unlike us, your sisters are so innocent. I wonder if we can be friendlier to each other too. Just because we stopped using force doesn't mean we can become the best of friends overnight. More importantly... Yes, please allow me to continue with my proposal. Whoa! Stop! Get your hands off those documents! What? But being a CPU starts with sorting out documents— Do that at yourown workplace! Tch. You're such a wet blanket. Where do you get off being so condescending?! Um... You've got monster hunting requests from your citizens, right? How about teaching Neptune what it means to be a CPU while we're at it? Oh, she wouldn't need to lay a finger on any of the documents that way. I suppose you're right. This looks good. It's nice and close to the border, too. Does that mean you're telling us to go back to Planeptune after we're done? Well duh. I can't work with you around. All right, everyone! Time to go monster hunting! Yeah! Wait, why are you acting like the leader?! We need to go monster hunting in two places. The Nursune Plains and the Trune Caves nearby. Both of them should be pretty easy to hand— Sis. What? Nobody's listening. Gosh, I'm pooped! You okay, Compa? Is this the famous "you can't read what it says from the back" sign?! Sis... That's how most signs work. Hey! We're behind schedule. You take this way too seriously, Noire! Problem? Don't you ever get tired of it? It's no big deal. I want to create a much,much better nation. Well, so do I, but I'd much rather have fun doing it. You have too much fun doing this! She came! Ah, my goddess! It's Black Heart! Oh no! Access! What?! You're gonna transformnow?! Rule number two of being a CPU: let your people bear full witness to your majesty. Could you all give me some information about the monsters, please? You just transformed in front of them. What's so majestic about that? So this is the Nursune Plains, huh? Yes. A mass outbreak of Dogoos here is causing a lot of problems. Understood. It seems Neptune and Nepgear, our neighbors from Planeptune, will eliminate them for us. Zoinks! That came out of nowhere! We're supposed to do this? Rule number 3: show off at every opportunity. I'll take some pictures so you can use them as PR. This is such a pain. Though, well, these Dogoos are easy as pie to deal with. Let's do this! Nepgear! Okay, Sis! I was not born To be a puppet on a string I embrace these irreplaceable feelings and keep them safe Way to go, Nepgear! In these radiant lands heading toward an age of reform That's my sis! Thanks! I picture the world of my dreams And let it ride the first rays of sunshine Chest! I'm gonna give it all I've got! I hear from far away A faint voice that calls my name And burns itself into my memories There are way too many of them. Everyone wanders forever We should help, Iffy! In search of an answer Right. Letting their faint yet violent Iffy! Compa! Flame of life burn away Here I come! Their eyes speak of their desires And shine a ray of light in the darkness Too good for them! So I reach out to the future We've basically won alread— It may be a thorny road, but I have nothing to fear Because you're there with me Sis, we should help out— Nope. The point is for them to deal with this themselves. Where do you think you're touching?! Everyone wanders forever Eww, majorly gross! In search of an answer Hey, stay out of there! Letting their faint yet violent Flame of life burn away This tickles! I'm gonna die! Their eyes speak of their desires And shine a ray of light in the darkness I...can't... So I reach out to the future It may be a thorny road but I have nothing to fear Because you're there with me I'm gonna send your souls all the way back to Hell! Spectral Edge! Neptune... Quit slacking. I don't even wanna look at jelly or meat buns for a while. Why didn't you activate your HDD form? Those Dogoos would have been easy pickings if you'd transformed! Well, all's well that ends well, right? You just had other people do your job for you! That's why your Share— Fine, be as lazy as you want. I'll handle the rest myself. Show me the way to the Trune Caves. Y-Yes, ma'am. I'll go with you. No, that won't be necessary. Stay here and help these guys recover. 'Kay. This way. Thanks. Noire's so short-tempered. Oh, Uni! Did you take any cool pics? Wow! Super cute! They're going straight to my email address! Begone! A dead end, huh? Guess I'm done here. An Ancient Dragon?! Quite the strong one, aren't we? Take this! Hey there! You... Why'd you go back to normal? I'm not sure. It happened really suddenly— Neptune! Noire. You're supposed to transform at times like these. Pay close attention! Behold the power of a goddess! Stop trying to act cool! Thanks. Leave this one to me. Cross Combo! I-I didn't need your help! I would've been fine by myself. I'm sure. But helping each other is what friends do. It's not like I consider you a friend— Why'd you choose this area? Because I wanted you to leave— Because you figured rumors would spread across the border and Planeptune would hear about my valiant efforts? That way, I could replenish some of my Share Energy. Thank you, Noire. But we also gotta let everyone know about the goddess who almost got her butt kicked! What?! Keep that a secret! Listen to this, guys! Hey! Noire lost! Neptune! We're friends, right?! Hey! Black Heart and Purple Heart killed the monsters with a hyper magic combo! Hooray! Hooray! That story gets crazier every time... Why did my transformation revert? Oh, so they purged all the monsters in the caves for us? Now we can look for you-know-what without having eyes on the back of our heads. Amazing! I'd expect nothing less from Noire. Zoinks! You mean "Neptune," right? I'm still not convinced you're behind all this. That's harsh, Histy! What's wrong, Nepgear? Someone put up some really weird pictures of me online. Huh? Those are all the pictures I sent to my email address! You're so cute, Nepgear! This is so embarrassing! Are you sure you sent it to the right address? Of course I did— Oops. I sent it to the address of a public mailing list... I knew it. But the response seems pretty positive! "Visual shock"? "It hit just the right spot"! "Planeptune's still got a lot left in the tank." Wow, people love it! Huh? Don't tell me the reason our Share Energy went up so suddenly... ...was because of these pictures?! You're amazing, Nepgear! R-Really? Then if we spread these things around even more... Huh? Do it for our Shares, Nepgear. For the Shares! Hey, hold on, Sis! I'm worried about where this country is headed in more ways than one. I'll post it all over the place! Stop! Under the right rules and regulations— Wh-What is this? It's an explosion of art! Ga-thunk! I'll be saving little girls all over the world again today! Wow, what a picturesque town! I've always wanted to visit Lowee. I had an inkling you felt that way. Rom and Ram told me to come visit. Apparently Blanc doesn't let them leave the country. Yeah, Blanc can be a real party pooper sometimes. Someone should tell her she'll end up as a loner like Noire if she keeps that up. Hello? Did you forget I was right here? Wait! Who are you calling a loner?! My bad! But hey, someone laying it on you straight like that might give you the little push you need to change yourself! Big words coming from Goddess Lazybones herself! Maybe it was a mistake to come here after all. She fell for it! It worked... Rom, Ram! What do you think you're doing? Run for it! Wait! Are you certain about this? Putting this plan into action will bring revolution to this world. Hold it right there! I'm aware. Help! We definitely need to keep this under wraps until we begin. Rom! Ram! Run for it! You lot... How many times do I gotta tell ya to keep it down when I'm tryin' to work?! I-I'm so sorry! Sis... Lookie look! Huh? What the...?! It's you! Ram and I drew it! My precious book... You two are dead! Look, the drawing came to life! Hold it right there! Run for it! Nepgear! Uni! You came! Yup! We came to play! Heyo, Blanc! I came for you! Teehee. So, like... yeah! We heard Lowee had this brand spanking new amusement park, so we all decided to come and take a look-see! Histoire contacted me and said she wanted me to teach you what it meant to be a CPU, though. Aw, don't bother your pretty head with that! It was all in one ear and out the other last time, y'know? Well, excuse me. I've heard about the amusement park too. Wouldn't it be fun if we all went there together? Super Nitten Land?! I wanna go! Take us there! I can't wait! Could you take my sisters along? What about you? Sis... Aren't you coming? I... can't. What? More work? Why don't you just quit already? The wise men of the past once said, "Only fools and horses work." I don't think those men were all that wise. Either way, I can't go. Wait for me, Ram! Put on your coats, you two! You're forgetting the tickets, Nepgear! Nepgear! Uni! Where'd you go? Here! Right here! A Dogoo coin! This one's got a Kupocat! Ah, it's just a Tertis block. And this one's a Tesrit. Lame! I'll take some! Other nations' CPUs have come all the way, you know. Blanc should've come along. I seriously don't understand what goes through her head. Indeed. What she needs is a little maturity. Like me. Oh yeah, why are you here— Zoinks! This turtle's after my peaches! Nooo! Someone help! Zoinks! Look, Rom! It's a Guardragon coin! A rare item! That one too. Oh, and that one too! They're all Guardragons! But, uh, I think I've had enough. Let's take some back for Sis. Why bother? Not like she bothered coming. Yeah, but... Fine. Let's take a whole lot back for Sis. Okay! Yay! Lick! Huh? What's up, Nepgear? Where did Rom and Ram run off to? I saw them go that way earlier. Rom? Ram? Ah-kekekekeke! Rom! Ram! What's the meaning of this?! Post-pubescent hags need not apply! Looks like it went off without a hitch, Trick. Our delicious banquet of fun has only just begun! Rom... Ram! I'm extremely sorry. Blanc gave me specific orders not to allow anyone through. What's the big deal? We're all buddy-buddy CPUs, right? I can't. I'm sorry. At least let us apologize! It's our fault Rom and Ram got kidnapped! We've already mobilized the guard and sent them out to look for them. We know that! Leave. You guys are always causing trouble. Rom... Ram... It's all my fault. I'm your sister... If only I'd been more responsible... I've gotta do something. Anything. Oh, yeah. That— Ga-thunk! Found you! Who're you? I'm Abnes! Ally of little girls everywhere! I'm the anchor of Abnes Channel, a super-hit web show. Don't you recognize me? Come now, let's get this broadcast started! Broadcast? Hello to all our viewers across the world! This is Abnes, idol to little girls everywhere! Today, we're here to visit Blanc, Lowee's little girl CPU! Hey, knock it the hell off before I— By the way, is it true that Rom and Ram, your little sisters, got kidnapped? How'd you know? It is true! I'm so worried! So, Blanc, how does it feel to have your precious little sisters snatched away from you? Good heavens, that Blanc. This is an emergency! Why does she have to keep up that stubborn facade? Yeah, that's supposed to be your shtick, Noire. Excuse me?! Um, ladies... In truth— Sis, what's going on up there? Well then, Blanc, are you saying it's all your fault your sisters got kidnapped? Well... Get a load of this! The little girl CPU can't say anything at all in her own defense! Little girls just aren't cut out to rule a nation, after all. They should be living carefree lives full of fun and games! Abnes Channel stands wholly opposed to little girls playing CPU! Hey! What's going on here?! Who are you? I'm Neptune! Planeptune's CPU! You're a CPU too? I guess you technically look old enough to be a teenager, but your body's too underdeveloped! You're a little girl! Certified! Wha? Did I really just get certified as a little girl by an even littler girl? Huh? In what way am I a little girl? It takes one to know one, you know! So that means you are a little girl! You're the one who's calling people little girls left and right! Did you just call me a little girl again?! Hold it right there! I'll let you off the hook for today, little girl CPU! Say what, pintsize?! Yeah, get outta here, little girl! Your face makes me wanna hurl! What in Gamindustri was that? I wonder how they got in. Blanc! Pull yourself together! I-I'll go get help! What's wrong? What if lots of Lowee's residents saw that broadcast just now? Maybe it caused her Shares to crash or something. Oh, yeah. CPUs can't use much energy when their Share reserves are low. I don't think this has anything to do with Shares. Public opinion can't be swayed that quickly. Then... Ladies. There's still something we can do. I know how we can find Rom and Ram. Blanc and I were trying to put a certain plan into action. You're aware Lowee used to offer a satellite imagery service, yes? If I remember correctly, it was called Terra View, wasn't it? The one that was closed down around a decade ago, right? Yes. That satellite's still functioning, actually. It can still take and send pictures of the surface. They're pretty low-resolution, though. Leanbox's research institute developed software that could analyze the data and produce images of a much higher resolution. Wow. Your country's crazy advanced! And so I made Blanc an offer. I said we'd let her have this software if she provided us with photographic data of Lowee. What? That means that you two would have data on the whole world to yourselves! Huh? Having you peeking at us all day would be no fun at all! No, we were thinking of sharing this information with everyone. It was Blanc's idea. "We signed a treaty of friendship, so all four nations should have equal access." Really? So we were looking for a good opportunity to announce it. A bit like a surprise present. Pretty nice, eh? Analysis complete. Time to find out where the kidnapper's hiding. Oh my. Is this... Lickety lickety lick... No! Rom? The little girls awaken! It's happening! Can I lick you two all over? What do you think you're doing to Rom?! Stop it! N-No! Stop! Trick! I called them and delivered our ransom demands. Wait, what are you doing?! Healing them, of course! My saliva is a miraculous panacea that cures any ill! Th-That so? I'll have you two feeling better lickety-split! Who would've thought they'd be hiding within a ride that was under construction? All right, time to crash this party! Hold on. What's up? In situations like these, you need to make sure the hostages are safe first. No! Stop! Let us go! That's quite enough! Sis? Who's that? Another delicious young morsel? Vert! Let those girls go. I'll take their place! Huh? I'm a gentleman, you know. I only like little girls. I've no interest in those cancerous growths on your chest. Wh-What's wrong with being well-endowed? All I can see is how much they'll sag one day. Looks like you've managed to anger me. Y-You're a CPU?! Green Heart, transformation complete. Oh, shit! Screw the ransom, our lives are in danger here! Kekekeke! Did you seriously think you had me licked? We'll see about that. Have a taste of this Drill Lance! Rainy Ratnapura! Nooo! That was easy. Oh? Where are Rom and Ram? Crud, CPUs! Sis! She was in on it too! Got it. How dare you think you can make a fool out of us? Oh, that was just Trick. Also, we only carried out this whole kidnapping deal because some weird woman put us up to it. Hm? Sounds like just the kind of thing an underling would say. Y-Yeah! I'm just a plain ol' underling. So, I'll be taking my leave now. Did you think it'd be that easy?! Lace Ribbon Dance! Not happening, huh? I'll keep these little girls safe, even if it should cost me my life! That is my duty as a gentleman! Where are you, my delicate flower buds? What spirit! Little girls really are the best! Lickety lickety lick! Get your filthy tongue off my precious little sisters. You'll pay for this, ya frickin' pedo. Pedo? My, you flatter me! Oh, really? Then let me flatten you as well. I hope you're ready, ya stinkin' pedo! You damn deviant! Sleazebag! Tanzerin Trombe! Little girls forever! You picked a fight with a goddess. Don't come crying to me later. Rom. Ram. Sorry for putting you through this. I'm a failure as a sister. Sis! We brought you these. Guardragon coins! Get out here, kidnapper! I'll smash you all the way to Planeptune! Sis... Emergency Exit Maybe it's all over already. Whaat?! Lack of sleep? Yeah. That's why I lost consciousness, and why I didn't go out with you. What the heck? I've been pulling all-nighters for a while now, so I was in no state to face you guys. And yet you saved Rom and Ram. Thank you so much. Vert. Noire. You too, Neptune. Thanks for sticking up for me during that broadcast. Oh, it was no big deal! I just did what anyone would do— chased that annoying brat away! Look, Sis. That's nice. Ram! Stop doodling on those things! You've got so many copies of the same book. Doesn't matter if we draw on a few, right? It does matter! How? W-Well... That's the story I spent night after night working on! So... They're fanzines, basically? What? What's it's about, Uni? Apparently, there's a girl who fell from the sky and a boy born with a special power, and they save the world together. Oh, so you're supposed to read this as "destiny"? Don't read it at all! Amazing! The protagonist awakened to a new power! That's so cool! Stop reading it! I've gotta do something. Anything. Oh, yeah. That— Ga-thunk! Found you! Oops. Wrong room. Hey! Help us! Shine! I dream of stars (Let's find them) I'm over the limit I know I'll keep surpassing myself I won't lose to anyone Purple is the land and blue the sky Wow! You wouldn't expect anything less from 5pb, Leanbox's diva, would you? (Green leaves are in the air) Indeed! I want to gaze at it with you once more (Forevermore) Your tenderness, your warmth (I want to feel it) You might be far away now, but we will meet again Shine! I dream of stars (Let's find them) I'm over the limit My love will not waver (Gracie☆Star) Comets circle the world (They are bifrost) I know I can cross the barrier they are I won't lose to anyone I don't care if it's a concert or whatever, but you're being way too noisy! Put yourself in the shoes of those who have to work in this racket. First things first, I'd like to know why a mouse has to go underwater. "Sea mouse" means something else entirely! It refers to a worm! Found it! Thank you all! Next up: Dimension tripper!!!! It's all well and good that she invited us to the concert, but what's with Vert not showing up herself? I'm sure she has her reasons. Well? Which one is Vert's room? Hey, it's unlocked! What... ...happened here? It almost looks like this room was broken into. I think it's more likely that it just hasn't been cleaned up. Oh, this is a game that can only be bought by those over eighteen years of age! Hey, stop that! We've got little girls here! What are the rear guard doing?! I'll back them up. You all carry on without me. Jeez! Oh, here she is! That was quick! You could've said something! What are you doing, Vert? Hey! Not there! She's clearly playing an online game. Four Goddesses Online? Hey! Sorry to see you couldn't make it! Oh my. Welcome, ladies. Sorry, I'm a little tied up right now. Hold it! Why'd you ditch us to play games?! I thought I'd just play for an hour before leaving, but my faction ended up laying siege to the enemy. I couldn't just up and leave like that. I thought you were going to throw a party for us here after the concert. We're right about to topple their castle, so if you could wait just a little bit longer... I never knew she was like this. Well, hobbies vary from person to person. Wow, what a goddess-for-nothing! She might be even worse than me! Not a chance. Zoinks! They're in perfect sync! What now? Looks like we'll be waiting a bit longer. Let's see... All right! Let's get everything ready! What? Why do we have to? Quit whining. We've come all the way to Leanbox, so let's make it a party worth the trip. First off: Nepgear, IF, and Compa, go shopping for ingredients! O-Okay! Everyone else can help clean up the room. Begin at once! There she goes again. She just turns into a total bossypants sometimes. It's like some weird switch in her brain. Quiet! Get to work! Looks like Ge-Ge and Iffy aren't here yet. I'd better hurry, or the old hag will yell at me 'til the mice come home. That hurt! Wh-What? Is it that amusing to see a mouse trip and fall? I'm so glad you're okay! You look a little bruised, though. I'll put this on for you, 'kay? I'll put this on for you, 'kay? I'll put this on for you, 'kay? There! All better! Be careful, okay, Mister Mouse? O-Okay. I'll take my leave, then. W-Wait! What is it? What is it? What is it? Um... Could I have your name, please? It's Compa! It's Compa! It's Compa! It's Compa! It's Compa! It's Compa! It's Compa! It's Compa! C-Compa... Such a sweet name. Ge-Ge? Get your hands off that thing! What's wrong, Ge-Ge? I don't know. It's like all my strength just left me. Could it be anemia? But I've never heard of a goddess suffering from anemia. That was close. Never thought I'd run into one of the CPU Candidates. That aside, Compa's an angel. A total angel! Hnng! Ladies, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Welcome to my party! Actually, Vert, you didn't do shit. Let's not do this. You're wasting your breath. I heard you had a dizzy spell earlier. Yes, but I'm all right now. Come now, ladies. Let us eat, drink, and make merry! I've prepared an extraordinary game for us today! What is it? Tell me! I'm sure showing it to you would be quicker than explaining. Neptune and Noire, could you step back for a bit, please? Roger! Huh? What's going on? Give us a splendid fight, you two. Wow! Oh no! Nep-Nep! Zoinks! I've turned into a Dogoo! I-Is this supposed to be me? This special camera captures your movements and projects them out in 3D. Pretty amazing technology, don't you think? So, you want me to fight Noire like this? Hey, you stinking Noigoo! I'll send you flying all the way to Planeptune! Wh-What the heck's a Noigoo? Yay! I scored some points! Now I'm mad! You'd better prepare yourself, Nepgoone! Look at you, you sucky Noigoo! By the way, there's also a more realistic combat simulation mode which you can use for combat training. Amazing! That sounds fun. I wanna play too! Of course! Please, enjoy yourselves! You're late! Do you mean to ruin our entire plan?! I rushed here as fast as I could, you know. It's your fault for making such a tight schedule, hag! How many times must I tell you to cease addressing me, your superior, in such a way? W-Well, whatever. I can't allow mere mice to perturb me. Hand you-know-what over already! Gotcha. Now we have four. Tonight, the rules of this game they call their world will be turned upside down. Over my dead body! What is it? We're in the middle of a party here. Vert, actually... Yikes. We're done already? What's wrong, Vert? Well, there's a waste disposal plant in the Zune district. I hear a large amount of monsters showed up there. The Zune district... It's a small island, isn't it? They say it adjoins land during ebb tide, and only then. Why are monsters such a big deal? They show up all over, right? It's an area under this nation's rule, so this shouldn't be happening. But it would appear that it is. I'll be going there now. Let me tag along! This is a problem for my own country to deal with. C'mon, fate must have brought us here today! Let us help. Doing the whole "we're all friends because we signed a treaty" thing again, are we? You got that right! I'll help too. I owe you one after you helped us during the kidnapping incident, after all. Okay, then! The three of us— I-I'm coming too! Who knows how long you three would keep us waiting otherwise. Ladies... Very well. Let the four of us go— Um! I'll come too! M-Me too! Me three! Me four! You girls should stay back. This isn't a game. What? You need to stay here and keep watch, Uni. You can't even transform yet, after all. Nepgear! Leave this to your trusty ol' sis. I gotta show off once in a while! Okay. So, on that note, it's morphin' time! Let's be on our way, ladies. I'm amazed you were able to scrape so much trash together. I had to. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to lure all the CPUs here at once. Get over here already. Are you okay, Nepgear? Y-Yeah... I'm fine, but I'm kinda worried about Sis. Is your sister not that strong? Nah, it's not like that. She's really strong when she gets serious. I'm so weak, but she always keeps me safe. But... I don't know why, but I have a bad feeling about tonight. A bad feeling? Okay, I got it. Thanks, Otome. Seems like I was right all along. Did you figure something out? The mouse at the shopping mall looked familiar, so I asked a friend in the intelligence bureau to look into it for me. And unsurprisingly, he was on every country's blacklist. He's on the list of most wanted people— Or should I say, most wanted mice. Huh? Mister Mouse is a bad guy? That makes me sad. That's not all. I also found out that he was spotted boarding a boat for the Zune district a few hours ago. Doesn't that mean... It's just guesswork at this point, but somebody probably arranged for those monsters to appear at the waste processing plant. If I leave now, I can still make it by ebb tide. I'm gonna go check things out. Me too. Take me with you! No way. I can't put you in danger too. But I'm really worried! Please, IF! Land ahoy. Ugh, look at 'em swarming over it like flies. There's lots of them, but they look easy enough to handle. But it'd spell big trouble if they somehow managed to make it to the city. We should hurry up and— These fatasses are the big hitters, eh? Can't complain about our enemies here, can we? Let's take down one each! Race you for it! I ain't gonna let you one-up me! Wait, you three! Basic battle theory says we should team up and take down one at a time! More like basic cowards' theory. Good heavens. They always get so headstrong when they've activated HDD. Well, I'm no exception! Listen up, Nepgear. Whatever happens, don't try the impossible. We'll retreat the moment we sense any danger. Okay. Thank you, IF. Lace Ribbon Dance! I win. Tanzerin Trombe! Damn, I'm second? Looks like those two aren't done yet. Rainy Ratnapura! Cross Combo! I suppose those two are tied? That also means they both finished dead last. I was just a little bit faster. If you say so. I was last— Noire! Blanc! Wh-What is this?! Don't fuck with me! Makes my skin crawl! I should just... I guess it's about time. Is that the one behind this? Goddesses, fall into my sanctuary! Th-This light... I'm losing strength. How? It's that rock. We just need to destroy it! Anything that depends on Share Energy as the source of its power cannot come into contact with that rock. Be it a weapon, or even a goddess. What is that supposed to mean? That rock is called an Anti-Crystal. It's a stone that severs the link between you and your Share Crystals, robbing you of your powers and abilities. Anti-Crystal? Oh, these are some real Kodak moments. These pictures are gonna cause quite the commotion around the world. Goddammit! You're not gonna get away with this! I'll beat you black and blue! I do wonder how you'll manage that. Goddesses inside an Anti-Crystal field will continue to lose their strength and energy. Just hang around and watch your chances of victory go down the drain! Sure is quiet here. Maybe they're done exterminating the monsters already? Nope, they're still around. Where are Neptune and the rest? IF! Look at that! Sis... Nep Station! Today, we're comin' at you straight from the studio! Here's today's special guest! I'm 5pb. Please buy a copy of my new single, Dimension tripper!!!! This isn't stealth marketing! Just blatant old-fashioned marketing! I'm losing strength. Goddesses inside an Anti-Crystal field will continue to lose their strength and energy. Who are you? My name is Arfoire. I'll be the one to bring joyous tidings of chaos to this world ruled by you four young ladies. And I'm Pirachu. The third-most popular mascot in mouse society. Mouse... Don't steal my spotlight! Listen to yourself. I was the one who dug up the Anti-Crystals from the Lastation caves and the Leanbox seafloor. And it was my discovery of the first crystal in a Planeptune forest that set everything in motion. Not to mention, did I not carry out the unenviable task of stealing one from Lowee's Basilicom? Lowee's Basilicom? Blanc, did you know about that rock... Yeah, I did. I had it under tighter security than Fort Knox, but after the kidnapping incident, it was nowhere to be found. If you'd just told us about it... How was I meant to know there were so many of 'em? The caves? Don't tell me... What's wrong, Noire?! Zoinks! My transformation... I believe I told you that as long as you stayed in that field, you'd continue to lose your strength and energy. How could this be? Sis... Sis! Nepgear? Get back on, Nepgear. But Sis... Nepgear! Right now, we have to get out of here! That one's getting away. It matters not. She's a mere CPU Candidate who can't even transform yet. What's this all about, IF? I'm not exactly sure, but they mentioned an "anti-crystal" or something. That's probably what's sealing the goddesses' powers. "Anti-Crystal"? Could you look into it for us, Histoire? Certainly, but it'll take me three days. As soon as possible, please. I'll see what I can do. Anyway, Nepgear and the gang should return to Planeptune. I believe it'd be better for Uni and the others to go back home too. Good bye. Well, you heard her— Hang on! Do you seriously expect us to just go home because she says so? Give us a proper explanation! Usually, Sis would knock baddies out in one blow! Is Sis gonna die? I-I'm sure she'll be fine. Goddesses don't go down that easily— But... I heard something about "sealing their powers" earlier. I'm sorry. It's not your fault, Ge-Ge. No. That rock I picked up back when we went shopping... Surely that had to be an Anti-Crystal. Let's not do this. Hindsight is 20/20. Why? If only I'd thought more carefully about why I felt dizzy back then... If only I'd told Sis and the others about it... You idiot! My sister is really, really strong, but because of you, she's... You should've taken her place instead! Aww, jeez. I'm bored outta my skull! I wanna play some games! What is wrong with you? We're captives, you know. But I wish I could at least use Four Goddesses Online's chat system. I'm supposed to be meeting my fellow guild members. Not you too. Well, it's good to see you're still the same as ever. Okay! Let's go out on a limb and make some demands! Hey! I know you're there! Bar Whore! Who're you calling a bar whore?! Uh... CFW Magic? That's someone else entirely! Okay then, Arfaemon! Gimme something to kill some time with. I'm gonna die of boredom otherwise! Either way, your lives are headed toward their end. Huh? She didn't object to that one. Can I just call her Arfaemon from now on? I don't care! Hey, you listenin' to me?! Someone's sentencing you to death here, you know. What? Come again? Take a look beneath you. Zoinks! What the hell is this? It's creepy. Is this another effect of the Anti-Crystals? Soon, you will begin to suffer, and eventually, you will die. Enjoy what little time you have left. Nepgear. Come on! I know. Uni. Let's make up. I went too far. I'm sorry. Don't be. I know. I know! It's not your fault, I know! Yeah. And I know how you feel. I thought there couldn't be anyone stronger than my sister. That everything would be fine as long as she was around. I'm the same. I can't do anything without my sister either. Even now, I have no idea what to do— It's simple! We just need to rescue them! I want to save them too. But we can't transform... Then we just need to change that! Let's learn how to do it. Can we? Sis said something about how I can't transform because I'm subconsciously limiting myself. Limiting myself... Like, the things we're scared about are holding us back. I'm scared of monsters. Yup, me too. Then let's train until we're not scared of them anymore! Sounds good! Yeah. Uni? Rom! Ram! Your ride's here— Owwie. This hurts quite a lot! You okay, Compa? I'm perfectly fine! This is training! Huh? This is Vert's game, isn't it? We figured we'd get some combat training done. Remember how she said there was a combat simulation mode? I took on the role of the enemy. If this can help Ge-Ge and the gang transform, I'll be super glad! Transform? We all decided to go save our sisters! That's why we want to get stronger. Hold on, Nepgear. We're up against someone who already captured the goddesses! Even so, I believe we have to do this. We've inherited the goddesses' power, too. I had a feeling this would happen. But you're not a good foil, Compa. I'll do it. Iffy. Relax. It's fine. Let's do this. Ga-thunk! Ga-thunk! Found you! Huh? Hey! Aren't you done uploading the pictures yet? Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine I'd have to use an analog connection. Not to mention, the modem we found in the trash was a 56k one. I'm about to cry here. You were fully aware there was no cellphone reception in this area! Mistakes made in the field are an employer's responsibility. Anyway, get on with it. Tell the modem to get on with it. Oh? I see it's just the Candidates here. None of the CPUs are around, huh? I knew it! Something went down, didn't it? Uh... If I'm not mistaken, you're Abnes, right? Hey, we're busy! Do not disturb! Who's she? The little girl lover who they say got Neppy mad back at Lowee. Abnes... We don't really have time right now— Shaddup! Ex-little girls who've grown all half-assed are trash! Now that the goddesses aren't around, this is my chance to let Rom and Ram go back to being normal little girls. Nice idea, even if I do say so myself. Or should I say, "a flash of inspiration"? Come now, little girls. Let us hold hands and play! Um, we don't wanna hold hands. We wanna play that instead. That? Please! Well, if you insist. S-Say, little girl. Are you really okay with this? Why don't we play something a little more girly? Charge, girls! Take that! Hold on a second! Iffy, apparently you can fight AI characters too. Wait! All right, let's do this! I knew it. I'm sorry! Nearly every game has that mode. Wanna tell them about it? I'm sorry! Why don't we... save it for later? They look like they're having fun. Never give up... on little girls! This is the end! Wow! They gave that Ancient Dragon a good beating! Ow! That hurts, you quack nurse! I'm sorry. We killed quite a lot of monsters, but it's not helping us transform. Yep. But if we kill a lot more... Looks like we don't have time for that anymore. News of the four goddesses' capture will soon spread like wildfire. The goddesses got captured?! That leaves the little girls wide open— You need some rest! If the public saw these pictures, it might lead to a Share crash. And if that happens... ...we'll receive less power from the Share Crystals. That means we need to save our sisters before this gets in the way! Yep. It's accumulated quite a lot. What'll happen to us when we get swallowed by that? I should've looked into some counter-measures. But I only thought about keeping it as far from me as possible. Chin up, gals! We're fine right now, and there's still hope for us! I don't usually mind your optimism, but it gets really annoying at times like these. You're trying to escape from reality. I'm just saying, it's better than thinking we're doomed. False hope never did anyone any good. I don't think it's false hope at all. You what? Huh? Have you forgotten about your sisters? Uni? She's never even fought without me by her side. Rom and Ram are still at an age where I have to keep them safe, too. Nepgear seems level-headed, but she's quite spoiled. I think it'd be too much for her. Isn't that just your ego at play? Sure, they're extremely lovely girls. I'd love for them to forever stay the way they are too. But those thoughts might be what's letting them stay as "precious little sisters who can't transform". Do you not feel that way? They're here. As expected, the CPU Candidate came back with friends. Hmph. What can they do? They probably can't even reach this place. Don't you agree? They still can't transform, yet... It doesn't matter if the goddesses fail. People will come to terms with it if their sisters give it their all. That'll reduce the damage done to the Shares. You're right, but... Also, I want to believe in them too. I want to believe they can do it. Iffy... Ready, girls? You'd best prepare yourselves! I'll keep you safe, Ram! Okay! And I'll take care of the rest! Hit! Pain, pain, fly away! Outta my way! Nepgear! Ram! Rom! Rom! Ram! Regroup! Uni... Behind you! I refuse to lose! Get away! Stay away from me! What have I done? I was mistaken. It was too early for us to go into battle! Iffy, they're all gonna be killed! Everyone will die because of me! I know! I can't do a thing! Help me, Sis! I'm relying on Sis again. But I... really do need Sis by my side! Sis said something about how I can't transform because I'm subconsciously limiting myself. Limiting... Like, the things we're scared about are holding us back. What I'm scared about is... losing Sis. No longer being Sis's kid sister. No, that's not it. I'm scared of becoming stronger than her! Iffy! Look at Ge-Ge! I wanted to keep looking up to her forever, but if this is what it takes to bring her back... I'll become stronger than anyone else in the world! Nepgear! Nepgear. Amazing! I cannot retreat here. So... I gotta do this! Looks like we don't have time for that anymore. Huh? No, wait, this doesn't count! Let's have a do-over! It's just, Compa sort of happened to say I could stay over, and I wouldn't have taken this except I woke up at midnight and— Mirage Dance! Gotta hang in there! All those trash monsters got cleaned up, you say? These girls are surprisingly good. Well, good timing. I was just starting to feel a little bored. I realized that I wanted to be protected by Sis forever. So I was fine being weak. That's what I was thinking. But when I wished to change— when I wished to become stronger... You managed to transform? That doesn't help me at all. I've never once thought that I was fine being weak. I-I suppose... Okay. We're nearly there. Sis! Nepgear! Sis! Sis! Rom... Ram... Uni... I see you managed to transform, Nepgear. Yup! I'll save you right away. I wouldn't be so sure. Good job making it this far, Candidates. My name is Arfoire. I'll be the one to bring joyous tidings of chaos to this world ruled by those four young ladies— Compa! How I've missed you! Huh? Oh, hi. Hey! Don't interrupt me! Why would you do this? What are you after? Allow me to educate you. What I seek is a new system that doesn't need CPUs— a world where anyone can become a ruler. You just want to rule the world yourself! If someone stronger than me shows up, they're free to knock me off my throne. That's how a world of equality works. Am I wrong? Stop trying to pretty up your own ambitions! You're just envious of the goddesses' powers! There may have been a time when I felt that way, but not any longer. Because... I myself possess the power of a goddess! She transformed? But she's not a CPU! Cross Combo! No way! That's my ultimate skill! How can you use that move? I have the ability to copy others. And now I've even made the goddesses' techniques my own! No way! That's impossible! I made it possible! Tanzerin Trombe! Stop it! Don't be mean to Nepgear! Go suck on a pacifier or something, pipsqueak. I... hate her. Yeah, me too. You and I... Let's beat her up! Rom... Ram... You won't get away with this! Better prepare yourself! Huh? Well, what can two transforming toddlers do? Ice Coffin! Yay! Lace Ribbon Dance! Rom! Ram! Now it's my turn. I'm the only one who can't transform. And Sis is watching all this, too. Why do I keep worrying about her? Right now, I need to... Hit. Hit! Hit, dammit! Uni... All right! That's it, Uni. Focus on your target. I see it! EX Multi Blaster! No doubt. Only resolve! Uni! That's so cool! H-Huh? I transformed. You did it, Uni! Way to go! B-But of course! A hero always arrives fashionably late! Yup. You're right! Uni. Bravo, ladies. What's happening? Wh-What's going on? Right on time, I guess? Do me a favor, Compa. Talk to that mouse. What should I say? Let's see... Something like, uh... Time for me to leave. U-Um... Mister Mouse. Uh, wanna have a nice, long chat? Over there? Huh? Boing?! A nice, boing chat, you say? Yes! C-C-Compa! I'm freezing. I've already stopped feeling anything. What?! Yeah, I'm starting to feel numb. We need to do something before our bodies go into arrest! Neppy! Iffy! I've got a message from Histoire. O-Okay. I have bad news, girls. Anti-Crystals sever the link between you and your Share Crystals, but that's not all. It also has the ability to convert Share Energy into something called Anti-Energy. And it is said that concentrated Anti-Energy can take goddesses' lives. So what can we do?! As of now, we don't know how to counter it. If I had three days— Vert! N-Neptune... No! Noire! Huh? Sis? Let me help too! Compa... Sadly, you're wasting your energy. What the heck is that? I-I don't know! That's how Anti-Energy kills goddesses. Rainy Ratnapura! No... Nep... tune... No— S-Sis? Nooooo! Where... am I? Am I... dead? Nah, I'm not. But... why? Share Energy shouldn't be able to reach me in here. So warm. I see. So that's how it is. We are... Your precious sisters are no more! Everything you did came too late. But don't let it get you down. You'll be joining them soon enough! In the dark abyss of despair, that is! Sis... They're all... Sis... What? They're all still fighting. And we... ...refuse... ...to lose! We're gonna take you down, putting everything we have on the line, body and soul! What is this? The Share Energy's resonating? Look at how... ...it's sparkling! My Anti-Energy... My miracle is being negated! You're not getting away! Begone! Sis? Where are you? Hey... Sis! Right here, Nepgear. Sis! I missed you so much! Thank goodness! Stop wailing like babies. Sorry I made you worry. Sorry I took so long, Sis. What're you apologizing for? Look at how you've grown. Thanks. Sis. Sis! You see... I... I... You did well, Nepgear. From now on, I'll always be with you. Sis! Vert. That must've been hard. Thank you. Good heavens. You're only getting her for today, okay, Vert? Good thing I prepared for this and made myself a loophole. You should thank your lucky stars I'm such a capable mouse. Why would you save me? You were under no obligation to. Villains have their own brand of friendship, you know. I have to say, though. You're like a sack of potatoes, you old hag! You could stand to cut down on those curves, you know. Hmph. I'll have you know my naked body's something else. Too much information! The Share Crystal's shining like blazes! Sure is! Looks like it hasn't changed much from before. I was worried too, but our Shares didn't go down all that much. For real?! Must be 'cause I'm such a wonderful person! Actually, I think it's more that people had low expectations of you to begin with. Either way, all's well that ends well! However, we're still facing a gradual downward trend. Let's forget about that for now. Not happening! I'll have you work your stripy socks off, starting today. What?! I'd rather get tangled up in slippery-slimy tentacles! So... What about the other nations' shares? Oh, they did go down a bit, as expected. But Vert launched that VR interface for the general public. I hear she got a lot of support that way. And over at Lowee, their Blanc Steamed Buns are selling like hotcakes. Finally, Noire and Uni went monster hunting all over the place and recovered more Shares than they'd lost. So yeah, it's almost like we're back to square one. Delish! And Neppy doesn't change at all, does she? Hm? Here I was, thinking you'd get a bit more serious after what you went through, and you just take us on some random picnic? You've got it the wrong way around! It's precisely because I went through that that I need to live every day like it's everyday! I have no idea what you just said. Heeeeeey! Heeeeeey! Wh-Who in Gamindustri is that?! N-No clue... Compa! IF! Huh? Who are you? No doubt. Only resolve! Uni! Your boobs! Now they're as small as ours, Uni! We're flat buddies! I'm not too happy about being in that category. Finally, I can begin! Whoa! Close shave. Barely made it! I'm bored! Play with me, Neptuna! How many times do I gotta tell you, P-ko? My name's not "Neptuna." It's Neptune! Neptuna! Neptuna! Hey! Don't just yank the plug out like that! Huh? Play with me, Neptuna! Zoinks! Those two get along like a house on fire. She's just running rings around poor Neppy. Histoire, have you still not found her guardians? No. She's been here for three weeks now. Don't we have any leads at all? No idea. Why did she recognize the two of us? Maybe we should count ourselves lucky that we even found out what her name was. Yes. It's a good thing her underwear had the name "Peashy" on it. Gotcha! P-Punch! How's this, Nepgear? Nice and soft, right? Yes, Vert. You can call me Sis if you like, you know. But my Sis is— Oh, forget it. I think I could get used to you being my Sis! Of course. And, uh... I see things have gotten crazy out here too. The Lily Rank's gone through the roof! Hey, Vert! Whaddaya think yer doin' to my kid sister?! Sis! What's the problem with getting a little closer to each other every now and then? "Every now and then"? More like every day! Nepgear's my kid sister, you hear me? You sound like a meddling sister-in-law. Let's keep strengthening our bond, okay, Nepgear? I actually came here to offer you an invitation. What? You wanna capture me too? Are you going for the sisters route? Zoinks! Not quite. Blanc contacted you, didn't she? She did? What do you think? This is Clatter, a long-eared bandicoot. He's a recent addition to the family. So cute. Lemme hold him! Well? What do you wanna talk about? Simply put, we need to talk about network security. Oh, so you want to base yours off Lastation's unbreakable digital defenses? Uh... But of course! I did spare no expense in hiring the best staff possible to create an impregnable firewall! Does it also protect the satellite system you put into operation recently? Indeed. I could let you copy it, but let me be honest. It'll cost you. There are traces of the satellite being hacked into from a server in Lastation. Excuse me?! Like I said, there are traces— Impossible! A security breach is about as likely as being randomly hit by someone falling from the sky. Move! Move! Move! Outta the waaay! Phew, that was lucky. Goodness gracious. How could you be careless enough to plummet from the sky and hit someone? Sorry, my bad. P-ko started making a fuss while I was flying over here, and I ended up reverting by mistake. Show some self-control! Sorry. Oh, yeah. Introduce yourself, P-ko. It's me, P! I never knew you had a child this old, Neptune. Yeah. She's the first one I gave birth to, so she's extra-specially-precious to me! Wait a sec! She's a lost child who we're taking care of at our Basilicom! I figured as much. Holy drumsticks! Blanc actually played the fool! Rom, Ram. Be friends with her. 'Kay! Let's go play. Okay! I'll play! Freeze! Anyway, about what we were discussing earlier... Let's go someplace else. Uni. Hold the fort for a bit, okay? O-Okay. Um, Nepgear... I could use your advice on something. Noire's been acting weird? She's been locking herself in her office every night, doing something. Are you sure she's not just working? She wouldn't lock the door if she was. Sometimes I even hear this weird laughter from inside. I'm kinda worried. So basically, you want to know what Noire's doing in there on her own? That's what it boils down to, I guess. I've got just the thing for you, then. I just happened to bring this with me. What is it? It's an inconspicuous gadget that wirelessly transmits images! A hidden camera, you mean. This tiny little thing can compress and transmit HD video in real time! Isn't it awesome? I've been wanting to set it up some time and see how it works! U-Uh... I can do it here, right? Bwahahaha! What's so funny? It's just, you were bragging about it every chance you got! You were like, "Lastation's security is the best in the world!" And now you've got a security breach? My sides! There's no use crying over spilled milk. What's important is to make sure it doesn't happen again. That, and... Catching the the person responsible, right? Whoa, Noire's in serious mode! I figured something like this might happen, so I brought in a specialist to help us out. Come in. A super-duper programmer who's the pride and joy of Leanbox: Ms. Setag. Ms. Setag? Who was that, again? An original character! It's happening! Greetings. I'm the one billed as Setag. Billeased to make your acquaintance. B-Bill? A character that makes such terrible puns in this day and age?! This one's gonna flop worse than Windows Me! No need to worry. After this scene is over, I bill never show up again. Would you be able to identify the culprit? Billeave it to me. This looks like a good spot. Or maybe putting it here would give us a better angle. Well, she looks like she's enjoying herself. Nah, it's gotta be here! It's coming this way! Watch out! You'll get tagged! Freeze! All done! Hey, it works! That sure is a clear image. Doesn't it look good? It uses NPEG-4, a cutting-edge codec, to transmit HD images in perfect detail! H-Huh? What's wrong? I'm starting to feel like we're doing something really bad. Maybe we should take it down. Yeah, you're right. Don't go that way! Sis will get mad! What's going on? It's a cross-connection. Wait... That means there are other hidden cameras in that room! What? Whaaat?! I think we're close. I'm so mad! How dare they spy on Sis? I'm gonna beat them black and blue! It almost sounds like you're talking to me. Well? Tell us which building we're looking for, Nepgear! Y-Yes, ma'am! Unfortunately, this reverse tracing device only shows the approximate location. That so? Time to kick down every door in sight, then. Still, I'm surprised you had that thing on you. Did you just happen to bring that too? Actually, I never leave home without it. Portable chargers and tracing equipment are must-haves for any girl. In what universe? Nepgear! I'm hungry! Is that so? What now? I'm hungry! Hungry! Hungwy! You're such a baby, Peashy. I'm a big girl now. I can put up with being hungry for a while. Me too. I'm a big girl. I'm a big girl too! Can you put up with it, then? I will. Pat, pat. You two are so cool. So they suddenly act all grown-up when there's a younger kid around. Huh? Look, it's our sisters. What's going on? Say, Noire. We didn't have to take action ourselves. We could've had security take care of it. That'd just be boring. If whoever did this thought they could make a fool out of me, they'll think twice when I pound their stupid face in! Noire's so aggressive today. I like it. That's the place, ain't it? That's the hideout that Ms. Setag identified. All right! Let's go find the culprit. Keep it down, dammit! They'll run away if they find out we're here! Is this where the "look who's talking" goes today? They went in here, didn't they? Y-Yeah. Maybe they're going after the voyeur too? Clatter! He ran away! Peashy! Freeze! Put your hands up and turn around slowly. You're the hacker, I take it? Answer me. Now! Oh, don't be such a stranger, sweetie. Call me Anonydeath! Zoinks! A d-drag queen? With that appearance? Goodness, how rude. My heart is more ladylike than any other! Yep, drag queen. Way too obvious. And I'd imagine he has a bit of a foul mouth, too. Bingo. Looks like I was wrong to assume you were some tits-for-brains bimbo. Who gives a damn about your gender? Are you gonna own up to your crimes or not? What? You're so cute in person. So much cuter than I imagined. You can't distract me by saying things like that! Oh, please. I'm serious, sweetie. Serious. Serious. Serious. I'm so sorry I took all these pictures! Noire here! Noire there! Noire here, there and everywhere! Where are you, Peashy? Clatter! Where could they have gone? Peashy! I'm a huge fan of yours, Noire. I wanted to learn more about you so badly that I just couldn't help myself. I don't care about these pictures. What I do care about is the hacking! You don't care, you say? So you don't care about these either? Noire's sewing! I never knew you were that kinda person. I am! Surprise! I'm rather family-oriented, you see. These clothes look familiar. It's just your imagination! I'm absolutely, positively sure it's just your imagination! Hey! I told you these weren't the problem here! Oh? Is this what you meant, then? Whoa! What're these? Pictures of her cosplaying, clearly. Oh, so that outfit was from Four Goddesses Online. Don't look! The way you panic is cute too! An exclusive! D-Damn you. Have it your way! I'm gonna throw you in the slammer for peeping! Oh my. If I should ever leave this place, all these pictures will be automatically sent around the world. Are you okay with that? Huh? I originally wanted to keep them all for myself, but covering the world in Noire sounds delightful in its own way. This is a tough decision to make. If these pictures were leaked... ...I'd be too embarrassed to show my face in public. What's the big deal? Noire looks super cute in these. You don't sound like you mean it. Fine! Go ahead! But you'll pay for it with your life! This is how it's got to be. Dammit. The monitors are coming our way! This was fun, Noire. Oh, and I was lying about leaking the pictures, so don't you worry. Hold it right there! I was able to meet Noire in person. One little hideout's a small price to pay for that. Dreams come true! Huh? What? Nooo! Get away from me! Heeey! Clatter! Look, it's Peashy and Clatter! What's wrong with you, Peashy? Sorry about this. Sorry. Geez. What are you teaching this kid? Peashy? Is your name Peashy? Yup. It's me, P! Sis? So you're the peeping tom?! Whoops! Getting those prints made of my favorites came back to bite me! You'll pay for this! You're not getting away, you damn tranny! Huh? Uni? Sis? Oh, all right. I give up. He never owned up to the hacking. Well, he got caught, so all's well that ends well. Looks like Noire's got bigger fish to fry now, anyway. You saw them? Did you see these pictures? Er, w-we didn't— Yup! We saw all of them! What's "cosplay"? Wait, why are you guys even here in the first place?! I'm done with this! Listen up. You are all to forget everything you saw here. Got it? And you, Uni! You should know better than to come to a place like this! P-ko! Ta-dah! Wanna eat? I smuggled it in with me. Yeah! I'll eat it! Oh, but we're going halfsies, okay? Okay! Halfsies with Neptuna! Hello. It's me. I found you-know-who. I'd gone through the trouble of hacking into a satellite, but then I found her easily through other means. What? Yeah... Say, Uni... You don't like me cosplaying, right? I don't mind quitting if you want me to. Nah. Don't quit. You can only do that because you're not too tied down with work, right? I guess. I've had some more free time lately. That made me feel like I'd become a little bit more useful. I wonder about that. "A little bit"? Please. You've been a great help! Sis! Move! Move! Move! Egad! What was that noise? Zoinkers! Ouch! Wh-Who're you? Huh? Oh, me? I'm Plutia. Planeptune's CPU. Whaaaaat?! Impossible! A security breach is about as likely as being randomly hit by someone falling from the sky. Move! What?! I was standing in the right place, okay?! I'm Plutia. Nice to meet you. A toast to Plutia, Planeptune's new CPU! Hold it right there! Compa, that makes it sound like she took my place as CPU! Huh? But she's Planeptune's CPU too. Yeah, she said Planeptune, but her Planeptune is a different Planeptune to our Planeptune. Got all that? Er... Basically, it seems Plutia came from another dimension. Though I guess you don't know how to react to being told there's another dimension out there. Can you transform too? I can. But people tell me not to do it too often. How come? Hmm... I wonder why... Hey, P-ko! Gonna eat meat! You can have this, Neptuna! Get it away from me! I hate eggplants! Why don't you give it a try, Neppy? They came out quite well today, if I do say so myself. Don't wanna! The stench alone makes me lose all strength! But they're so delicious. You're missing out on about 33% of what life has to offer. Whatever! I still hate those stupid things! Eggplants are really good for you, you know. You're taking the eggplants' side too, Histy?! Neptune! What kind of an example does a CPU who's picky about food set for her people? Lady Histoire! Are you okay? I... don't... know.... A curse?! It's the curse of the eggplants! It is not! Yeah, those things just aren't edible! Sorry about that. That was the first time I'd ever received communications from another dimension, so it took me a while to read the manual and respond accordingly. I'm sorry about calling you out of the blue, too. Thank you for taking care of Plutia. You're kinda tiny. Don't look down on me just because I'm small! I was the one who sent Plutia to your dimension, you know. I see. That was quite the shock, though. I had no idea other dimensions existed, let alone that they were so easy to travel between. It's not easy! I'll have you know it's actually quite difficult to do. Oh, I'm sorry. Though, well, the manual does contain a how-to guide. Took me three days to read it all. That so? I'll have a look through mine. Dessert time! Yay! Hey, P-ko! I want this one! That's mine. Can't you see it says "Nep's" on the label? Peashy, the others are the same as that one. No! I wanna eat Nep's pudding! Why? It says it's mine, so it's mine. Go away. Say what? You wanna go? You're being immature, Neptune. Don't fight, Neppy. Anyway, why did you send Plutia here? To tell you the truth, we detected a large flow of energy from our dimension to yours. I think something— or someone—moved there. Oh... Whatever it is, it holds so much energy that if we let it go, our world might run out of energy to sustain itself. Right... That's why we need Plutia to look for whatever went missing and bring it back. I see. So, how would one go about searching for this thing? P-Punch! I spent three days investigating that, and I still couldn't figure it out. Huh? Then... All we can do is try to stay on top of any changes that happen in your world. If some kind of major upheaval takes place, you should be able to find what we seek nearby. I understand. I'll let the others know. And that's the story. I'd like you all to inform me immediately if you notice anything peculiar. So you've come, huh? I'll send you flying clear outta Planeptune! I'm gonna play with this! Give that back! Please! Um, are you listening to me? Oh, sorry, Histoire. I'm listening. W-Wait! That's if anything peculiar happens, right? I haven't seen anything yet. But you haven't moved an inch. I'll go on patrol, Histoire. Thanks as always. I'm counting on you. Sure. See you later. Compa, you've got work now, right? Want a ride on my motorbike? Yes, thank you! All done! Huh? Plutia, is that me? It's Neptuna! That's right. It's so cute. Totally. It's got everything that makes me cute! I like making dolls of my friends. Me too! Make me too! I'll do yours next, then. And Gear after that. Yippee! We did it! Let me begin right away. Maybe, just maybe, we'll get to see a real artist at work? Yeah, maybe she'll make it without any pattern paper. H-Huh? She's asleep? Well, we got to see a piece of work, I guess. There's a lot of construction work going on today. Sorry we're running late. It's okay. I'm with you, so I'm having fun. R-Really? What the? Hold your breath, Compa! You certainly fell for that one easily. Wait, you can't be... Sis! Wake up, Sis! I can't eat any more... Quit having such clichéd dreams! Geez, Sis. What do you want, Nepgear? What the heck are those? Oh, no. They were sent to me from an unknown address. There was a map attached too. We need to go save her! Yeah, but who would do a thing like this? The time for revenge has come. You won't achieve anything by doing this, Arfoire. Neppy and Nepgear will just defeat you again. This time will be different. I've got an ace up my sleeve. That is to say... all these eggplants! I've already figured out that eggplants are a goddess's Achilles heel! I'll put them through hell right here in this eggplant farm. You don't stand a chance no matter what tricks you pull, you old hag. Shut up, pipsqueak. Choke it all down. Don't leave a single molecule behind. Wouldn't want you to miss out on 33% of what life has to offer. What do you think you're doing, you wrinkly witch?! Silence! Eggplant skin is loaded with polyphenols, you know? Stop it! There you are, CPU. Today's the day I send you six feet under. If it's a fight you want, you've got it. So unhand Iffy at once— Are you okay, Sis? I'm sorry. The stench of those eggplants— Took you long enough to notice. I bought up all this farmland so I could use your Achilles heel against you. This eggplant field will be your grave! Don't be stupid. Sure, I may hate eggplants, but they're not going to kill me. We'll see about that. Come forth, my purple servants! What are those? Huh? Where am I? A place just for the two of us. Mister Mouse? I crawled my way up from the depths of Hell just so I could see you again. Huh? From the what of Hell? Today's the day I give you every last inch of my heart. Eggplants scary! Eggplants stop! Eww. Yikes. Sis! Plutia! Outta my way! Pull yourself together, Neppy! They're just monsters that this old hag put together with her magic. Kick their asses! Haven't had enough yet, eh? While I'm here, I might as well keep feeding you eggplants! IF! Nepgear! I'm gonna hurl! Well? Eggplants taste good raw too, don't they? How about another? Eat it. Eat some more. Zoinks... This kinda... pisses me off. Why... would you... Zoinks! torment... Iffy like that? S-She's my hostage! I can do whatever I want to her! So that's how it's going to be, is it? In that case... Maybe I should do whatever I want, too. Huh? Plutia? That's an even more drastic transformation than my sister's. Who the hell are you?! Me? I'm Iris Heart. Don't worry about memorizing it. I'll carve it into your body for you! Don't tell me you're all flash and no substance, now. Show me a side of yours that's a little less withered up, would you?! She seems to be enjoying herself. A-Anyway, we should let Plutia handle things over there. Why don't you try opposing me for a change? While they're at it, let's finish these guys off nice and quick. Nepgear, go and free Iffy. I'll chop up these eggplants. Okay. I've seen the light. Nothing seems worth it if you don't have your loved one by your side. So... Co... Co... Compa! Co... Co... Compa! Co... Co... Compa! M-Mister Mouse?! Take that! I thought I'd be able to have a bit more fun, but I guess a loser's a loser. I just let my guard down! That's all! If I'd known about you beforehand... Man, losers are always so full of excuses. Blah, blah, blah, blah... It hurts to listen to. I'm so not gonna reach the climax like this. Guess I should just finish you off. Wait, Plutia. That's enough— Did you think I had nothing else up my sleeve? I'll teach you even more about the true terror of purple. Behold my newfound powers! I have become a transcendent being that melds goddess with eggplant, exceeding the power of both! My name is Eggfoire! Hm? You don't seem very impressed. When you get that huge, you don't look much like an eggplant to me anymore. You're just a great big lump of purple. S-Say what?! Right now, my anger's winning out. I can't forgive what you did to Iffy or what you did by bringing eggplants, of all things, into battle. I'll make you rue the day you crossed me. Ready, Nepgear, Plutia? Yeah, Sis! I'm always ready. Wha— This sure is eggplant on my face! If you were going to bring veggies into it, you should've used a more balanced selection. Compa. Let's share the kiss of destiny. Mister Mouse. Are you no longer a bad guy? I don't like bad guys. If I wasn't a bad guy... Who're you?! Things were just getting juicy over here! Don't interrupt! You're just a mouse. The only thing you're fit to do is scurry through filthy sewer pipes. I can't believe you'd even think of defiling cute li'l Compa. Don't tell me. Are you a new CPU? "CPU"? You filthy, vulgar vermin. That's... "goddess" to you! Wow. Mister Mouse has such a limber body. It's stretching like rubber! Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on! What was that? I can't understand you! Come on! Come on! Are you okay now, IF? Yes. I'm not hurt or anything. That Arfoire sure was a terrifying opponent, wasn't she? Yeah. Though there was someone even more terrifying out there. Huh? What do you mean, Neppy? Nothing. Gotta try and keep her transformations to a minimum from now on. Dinner's ready! Dinner! Dinner! Dinner! Dinner! Dinner! Dinner! Dinner! Dinner! Dinner! Zoinks! Mauve eggplants?! Yes. Wh-Why are we having eggplants again after what just happened? Peashy requested them. Looks like she took a liking to them after eating them yesterday. Eggplants! I heard you'd overcome your hate for eggplants too, Nep-Nep. Nah, I wouldn't exactly call that "overcoming" it. I was just going with the flow of battle! No! Not eggplants! I hate eggplants. Eggplants scary! Don't wanna eat eggplants anymore! Get a hold of yourself, IF! Iffy started hating eggplants too? Well, I can understand how she feels. Iffy! My bosom buddy! Eggplants yummy! Are you seriously going to become an eggplant farmer? Given up on your quest for world dominaton? Yeah, I've grown a little tired of it all. I used up all my money on that operation, so I don't even have anywhere else to go. You'll help me? I don't have anything better to do. This is so strange. For the first time ever, I feel alive. I'm not doing it for free, you know. On a faraway island lies a giant, mysterious machine. Huge, skin-colored, and sometimes pink. Is it a trap? Or perhaps... Next week, on Hyperdimension Neptunia: the prelude to a nightmare. Tune in or kiss your save data goodbye. Chow time! No fair, Neptuna! That's mine! That's my pudding of yours! Have you lost your marbles? It says "Nep's," so it's mine. Not yours. Mine! Pu— Hey, P-ko! Now you're just being naughty! You're the one who's naughty! M-Me?! You always go too far, P-ko. Hmph. I hate you when you're like that! Neptuna, you stupidhead! Stupidhead! It takes one to know one! Why are you squabbling with a child? Huh? When'd you get here? Around the time you dropped your pudding. You bullied Peashy! The poor thing. You could stand to act a bit more mature. What? I'm the bad guy here? Absolutely. Totally. Definitely. Yeah, yeah. Well, okay, I might've gone a little too far... That aside, what brings you all here? Changing the topic, are we? I spy Peashy! Plutia... I looked all over the place for you. Here you go. I promised to make this, remember? It's a plushie of you. Yay! I love you, Plutia! Thanks. R-18 Island? Judging by its name, could it be... Indeed. A forbidden island only adults may set foot upon. Things like this and that happen around the clock, or so I hear. And we're going to that alluring amusement park right now! Could this week be... a fanservice episode?! Huh? So we're not going there to have fun? No. Unfortunately not. Yesterday, our satellite detected a massive artillery battery set up on R-18 Island. So we decided to go check it out. And Histoire did tell us to keep an eye out as well. Is someone trying to start a war? Hey, Neppy. I wanna fly by myself. Huh? Y-You can't! Please, just stay the way you are. Why? If she can transform, why not let her do it? If you'd seen the things I've seen, you'd know why! Huh? No means no! Neppy, you spoilsport! Stay still! Goodness me, what in the world are you doing? Why can't I go to R-18 Island? I refuse to accept this! We refuse! We refuse... What's wrong, Peashy? If you're looking for something, we'll help you out. Peashy! So here's where you were. Let's go inside and play some games. Are you looking for something? I'm not! She's clearly looking for Neppy. She probably wants to apologize. Oh... Never knew she had such a cute side to her. Neppy should've made up with her before leaving. The two of them are basically family now. These things happen between family members. Let's get R-18 Island's immigration check over and done with. I-Is this okay? It feels kinda weird wearing a swimsuit in my HDD form. I don't think it makes much of a difference, though. This island has a strict dress code. Either you put on a swimsuit, or you go in all-nude. That's how it is. A rather extreme dress code, I see. Looks like Blanc and Plutia are done changing too. Yoohoo! Am I cute? Deary me. Am I? Dear me... Hey! You were looking at my breasts just then, weren't you?! Huh? Th-That's not true. It's just... I couldn't help but wonder if they'll even recognize you two as adults. D'you have to say it straight to our faces?! You'll be fine. Age doesn't apply to us goddesses. Well, guess we can take a crack at it. Begin the check, please. Welcome to R-18 Island. A question. Are you an adult? Of course. Approved. Enjoy your stay at R-18 Island. I'm here on business, though. Come on, ladies. Get to it. Okay. Approved. I am an adult. Are you really over eighteen years of age? Yeah. Yes! Really? Wha—? Yeah, really! She doesn't believe me! You're actually a little girl, aren't you? I am not! With that breast size? Let's go. Yay! Well, you certainly cracked it. It's all well and good that we got into the island, but where are we supposed to go now? Yeah. Maybe we should ask around. Right away, ladies! Welcome! Lean on me if you've got any problems. I'm Linda, an authorized guide! I'll give you a good deal. Aren't you... Hey, it's the kidnapper! Ack! It's the CPUs from back then! So you're the one who put my sisters in the soup, huh?! H-Hold on a second, please! I've turned over a new leaf. I'm making an honest living! You'd better be telling the truth. You lie, you die. I'm not lying! I'm a perfectly upstanding citizen now! I see. You're looking for the artillery battery set up on this island? Would you happen to know anything? Of course! You can count on me. Oh, but I'd also like to check out all the fun places on this island. Come on. This isn't a game. But... Gotcha! I've got just the spot for ya. The most picturesque place across all of R-18 Island. Wairisqué Beach! Whoa! Whoaaaaa! Wow! How daring! Wh-Wh-Wha—? Why is everyone n-n-nu— Everyone's in the nude. My, how open. Forget this place! Let's hurry up and find the artillery! Hey, what're all those shiny things? Oh, they're just Mysterious Light Beams. They love lewd body parts. Why don't those people just wear swimsuits?! L-Lewd body parts... That means... I can get away with doing this! You're so daring, Sis. You try it too, Nepgear! It's fun. Huh? Count me in. Me too. Huh? What?! This feels great. Nepgear! If everyone else is doing it, I will too! Huh? Take this! No! Now you've done it! Take that! It's true. Birthday suits feel amazing. What the hell are you all doing? Come on, let's go! No point pretending to be innocent! If you make good use of the Mysterious Light Beams... What? Oh my, how strange. You look like you're naked even when clothed! What? What do you think you're doing, you pervert?! It's the mind's job to be perverted! Hurry up and strip! Guess I don't have a choice. Wait. Zoinks! Aww, they found out. And here I thought it was the perfect plan. I figured it'd be something like this. But, Neptune, I saw you throw off your swimsuit! That was just a mirage. No way! Oh no! How could you deceive me like that? You're awful! Sorry about that, Nepgear. I never thought you'd actually strip naked. Let me get your swimsuit for you. All done. What do you think, Blanc? Put the wax on, and spread it out. Up! That's enough, Vert. Down. Oh? There are still a few places I haven't covered. See? I'll handle the rest myself! Ladies! How would you like some ice tea? Well, aren't you considerate? Thankies! I'm lovin' it! Everyone, help yourselves. Sis?! What's wrong? It's happening! Neptune? Are you okay? Sis? No! I'm so embarrassed! What? Yes! This is so... so shameful! I beg of you, don't look at me! Don't look! Cripes! When did she get so disgusting?! This isn't the Sis I know and love! Don't look! I've heard of this before. Shyness is the biggest taboo on this island, but I've heard there's a drug that maximizes it. Y-You've got it all wrong! I don't know of any such drug. You bitch! How dare you— I don't really get it, but you said you'd become an upstanding citizen, right? No, Plutia! Don't do it! I'm a natural-born villain! I can't just change at the drop of a hat! That so? So you can't change that easily, huh? Don't look! Then... Uh oh. She transformed. Let's take this nice and slow. I'll see if I can whip you into shape. T-Try it if you can... My. She ran away! Once I make it into the jungle, they won't be able to catch me— Boing. I don't need to hold back on a bad, hopelessly stupid girl like yourself, do I? Do I? Okay, then. Get ready. It's punishment time! It's punishment time! It's punishment time! It's punishment time! It's punishment time! No! Scream some more! Wow, she's giving her the works... That certainly is R-18. Now they're not looking at me, but that feels kinda bad too! S-Sorry, Sis! I'm here looking at you, okay? We're all set, girls! Yay! It's a pool! No, Peashy. Don't jump in— Peashy! Oh, come on. It's nice and cool. Oh, please. This is just a kiddy pool. I don't really— Wide open! Now you've done it! This feels great. What is it, Peashy? You're so squishy, Compa. I'm gonna be squishy too! Yeah. I'm sure you'll get all squishy when you grow up. Squishy! Coming. Sorry to keep you waiting. Who might you be? U-Um... Ladies. We are almost there. The artillery is right this way. We will be there in a moment. Wow, she sure has changed. I think anyone would after what she went through. The perpetrator seems unconcerned, though. Are you okay? Yeah, but I don't remember what I was doing. You're better off not knowing. What? Really? Oh, but you were really super cute back there. Huh? Why did that send shivers down my spine? We're here, ladies. Zoinks. Wh-What is this? They're enjoying themselves! Uh... A disco, perhaps? Look at that! Is that the artillery battery you were talking about? It's just a bubble machine! Oh, it stopped. Something's about to happen. What are they planning on doing? So pretty. Screw that! We came all the way here just for this— What was that? Just my imagination? It's gotta be. He's in prison right now. Thanks for waiting. I brought the girl you asked about, but Peashy here says she doesn't remember anything about her mother. I-I'm sure she'll remember right away! What do you think, Peashy? I don't know her. Th-That can't be! S-Sorry! I'm so sorry! Don't be. Let me get a cloth to wipe it up. Huh? I'll clean it up right away. Wait just a moment, please. Um... Yes? Ma... ma... Huh? It looks like she remembers me now. Ma... ma... Then you really are her mother? Mama... Mama. That was a total wild goose chase, wasn't it? Yeah. What's wrong, Noire? You've been acting weird for a while. Huh? N-Nah, it's nothing. Are you regretting not taking your clothes off when you had the chance? Does that mean Noire is a cosplay-loving nudist? You're the nudist, Nepgear. Hey, guys. You saw me transform, right? Then let me transform and— Hell no! You're all spoilsports! We're back! Welcome home... Look at all these souvenirs! I wrote my name on all of 'em, so all this pudding belongs to me! We don't have to fight anymore, P-ko. Huh? Where's P-ko? Neptune, actually... P-ko went home? Yes. Her mother came to pick her up. No way! That happened way too fast! Peashy said she wanted to go home with her mother right away. We didn't hear about it until after she left either. This is so sad. B-But we can go see her again, right? Well... They left before we could get their address. No way... Stupidhead... P-ko, you stupidhead! It takes one... to know one. I brought her. Good job. W-Will we be okay? Why did I have to do that? To start with, what was the black substance in that bottle? If I recall correctly, your name was Rei Ryghts, right? R-Right. Then you'd do well to remember this, Rei. You know what they say about questions? You're only supposed to ask them when there's a point to hearing the answers. Hello. I'm Plutia. I'll be hosting Nepstation today! Our guest this time is Ms. Setag— How long are you gonna sleep for? Get up already! I'm still sleepy, Neppy. No can do! We need to go on patrol again today. Hey! No going back to sleep! Anyway, just get up now. Morning, Nepgear. We leave in half an hour, okay? O-Okay. Got it, Sis. Ow. Neppy's super tiring to be around these days. Yes, you're right. What? So neither Nepgear nor Neptune are around? No. They've been going out on all-day patrols recently. Patrol? Neptune?! My thoughts exactly. By the way, why are you in Lowee? I came here to help Rom and Ram out. As it turns out... We found it using satellite imagery! We found where Peashy is. What? Nothing out of the ordinary so far. Yeah, Sis. Neppy, we only just came here three days ago. That's enough time for things to change. It's a pack of wolves! They weren't here the last time. Let's get rid of them. Huh? But there's pretty much no danger of them making it all the way to town. Monsters are monsters. Kill first, think later! Wait, Sis! Here they come. Here we are! Sorry for making you do this. Don't be. We want to see Peashy too. Where's Peashy's place? Well, going by the satellite image you sent us, probably that one. Hey there! Looks like this one's empty too. That means... She's gotta be on the top floor! Was this really the right thing to do? We came here by ourselves. Nepgear and Neptune have been wanting to see Peashy too, haven't they? Yeah, of course. We just need to take Peashy with us to the Basilicom. Once they get back home, they'll get a big surprise! Yeah, a surprise! That's right. So, is this Peashy's home? Hello! Peashy! What's with this place? Where's Peashy? "Say no to CPUs"? How rude! This looks familiar. Didn't we get one back then in town? We should live our lives not under the CPUs, but under the right rules and regulations. So the person who was handing out the flyers back then is Peashy's mother? I wonder about that. Either way, it doesn't look like anyone's home. Peashy... I hate CPUs. CPUs should all just disappear! So why do I have to take part in this? Not very good at giving up now, are we, Rei? You forced me into this! I'm just a social activist! Why did you pick me? I didn't have a choice. My client for this job ordered me to drag you into it. Who is this client? No idea. I've only ever spoken to them over the phone. But they pay well, and that's what matters. I'm leaving. That won't do, my dear. You're an accomplice now. You were the one who kidnapped her, weren't you? Get it? Time you stopped rotting away over there and did your job. She'll be ready soon as well. Give us a hand, Plutia. Don't wanna. I feel sorry for them. What are you talking about? We're doing this for you too, you know. You need to detect any major upheavals as soon as possible, right? This was barely a change at all. Besides... Plutia transformed! People who say they're doing something for others when they're actually doing it for themselves... seriously piss me off. Are you talking about me? I don't believe there was anyone else here acting like a total pain in the ass. I-I just wanted to patrol and look for upheavals— Don't get the wrong idea. I love you, Neppy. But when I see people lying to themselves, it makes me want to bully them to hell! Stop it, Plutia. I don't want to fight you! Well, isn't that something? I feel the same. Let me have my way with you. Then there'll be no need for us to fight! Oh no... What am I to do? What's wrong, Neppy? Come at me! Is this all you've got? Stop it, Plutia! Stop. Please, just stop! I'm telling you to stop! Way to go. I expected no less from you. Stay my friend, Plutia. I'd do anything for you. I can't believe you're still lying to yourself. Don't you have someone else you'd do anything for? P-ko... I should've spent more time with her! I should've let her have more of my pudding. If only I'd told her I wanted her to stay longer... That's more like it. If you can't do anything about your feelings, just spit them out. That's the Neppy we know and love. Hello? Hey, Plutia. What, Neppy? This felt better when you were in your HDD form. Is that so? Guess I'll transform just for you. Just kidding! This isn't half-bad either! It's like scrubbing my heart on a washboard! Really? Yay! Sis! Plutia! Huh? You wanna be scrubbed too, Nepgear? Oh, come on. I just got word from Histoire. She said a new nation's been formed! Say what?! A new nation? What do you mean, Lady Histoire? I'm not completely certain yet. I just suddenly received word that a new nation has been formed on R-18 Island. Anyway, it seems Neptune and Nepgear will go check it out along with the other CPUs. What's going on? Like I said, they're going to— Why is Nepgear the only one who always gets to go to R-18 Island?! No fair! We're goddesses too, you know. Take us along! Why are you yelling at me about this? This sucks! We wanna go! We wanna go! We wanna go! R-18 Island. I knew that place was fishy. Guess there was a point to that artillery after all. We completely missed the signs. Plutia. Is that great power you're looking for also over there? Dunno, but it might be. Watch out! Hi, my lovely goddesses! Don't tell me... My humble greetings. Welcome to the brand-new state, Eden! Why, hello there, Noire. How are you here?! I confirmed that you were in prison just three days ago! I know. You came to visit me while I was serving my time, did you not? Or to be more precise, you visited my body double. You think you can mock me? I'll get you now! Oh, but you can't. This is an independent nation. I'm afraid that not even you have the jurisdiction to do that, Noire. Dummy. Who in their right mind would recognize a nation founded by a criminal? You don't even have a CPU! Give it up! Noire! Ouchies. Flying is hard! Are you... ...a CPU? Yep, yep! And my name is, um... Oh, that's right! I'm Yellow Heart! Nice to meetcha. How ridiculously massive! There goes your unique identity, Vert. What are you saying?! Size doesn't matter! Shape does! That's the same thing I've been hearing from the losers all along! Can't sympathize with you there, I'm afraid. Hey, you! Ohmigosh! A person came out of my bum-bum! I didn't come out of anything! Just get off of me already! I'm gonna catch that guy! Huh? Catch? Over my dead body! A-Amazing strength! That's a good girl, Yellow Heart. These terrifying ladies are trying to catch me! Not if I can help it! If it's a fight you want, you'd best be prepared! Time for you to go out of production! Not such a big deal, eh? She's just a rookie. This is fun! Let's play more! She's not hurt at all. This is just part of the process. The real objective is— Hey! Wh-What? Do you know anything about that huge cannon? N-Not a thing! Anything's okay, no matter how small, so please tell me. I have nothing to do with it. But I saw you taking a walk near the cannon. I was just passing by! You simply reek of lies. What fun! Bring it on! Hey! What's with her? L-Listen to me, please. I was just tricked into helping out with this, you see. I'm a victim. Oh? I hate people who play the victim. Eek! Please don't hurt me! No bullying! I also hate people who interrupt me when the going gets good! Plutia! Plutia! Are you okay? Yeah, she only grazed me. Neppy, you can't. I didn't want to pick a fight with the CPU of a new nation. But you were the aggressor here. We're not gonna go easy on you anymore. Huh? You don't wanna play anymore? Don't think you can just get away with anything by making them bounce! Calm down, Vert. About time for the climax, I suppose? This is me going all-out. Tricolor Order! Ein Schlag! Darjeeling Rotation! Dual Edge! Did we get her? That's a "we didn't get her" flag if I've ever seen one. My bad. That hurt! My transformation reverted. P-ko? Papa! Mama! Where are you? Right here. You did well, Peashy. Go on. You praise her too. Atta girl. Thanks. Hold me! Sure thing. How cute. P-ko! Why are you here? Don't tell me you're... No way, huh? Go away. I hate people who hurt my papa and mama. I hate you! P-ko? What have you done to that girl?! Me? Do something? I wouldn't dream of it. I am but a consul. I serve this lady here. It's a little late for this, but let me introduce you. This is our goddess! Eden's CPU! Yellow Heart, also known as Lady Peashy! Neppy. Oh, also, Rei will be making an important announcement now. Read it out, Rei. Huh? O-Okay. The CPU Yellow Heart-governed— I can't hear you! Eden hereby demands permission to export the adult goods manufactured in this country to all other nations in unlimited quantities! Failure to comply will be considered a declaration of war! You wanna go? You just formed this nation. Your Share reserves are paltry! Do you really think you can beat us? You can say that again. It certainly is reckless. But isn't this just the most exciting thing? Does this mean... we'll have to go to war with Peashy? Rei will be making an important announcement now. Read it out, Rei. O-Okay. Th-The passion... I can't hear you! The passion running through this body cannot be contained! Who the hell asked you to read erotica out loud?! Excursions are so much fun! Onward ho! Halt, citizens of Eden. If you advance any further, we'll open fire! Hey! It's the bad goddess! Peashy... I hate bad goddesses, but Papa said I could play with them. So, let's play! Sis! Is it true that Eden attacked Planeptune? Yes. It seems Nepgear's fighting by herself right now. I'll go help! Take a look at this, Uni. Lift the restrictions! Lift the restrictions! I want to see more extreme content! Lift the restrictions on adult content! We don't need no age limits! Lift the restrictions! Lift the restrictions! Lift the restrictions on adult content! Riots involving radical factions that endorse Eden's beliefs have simultaneously broken out at Lastation, Leanbox, and Lowee. So this is no time to be worrying about Planeptune, I take it? This is clearly a diversionary tactic used by Eden, but we have no choice but to address the problem in front of us. No way! What about Planeptune? What about Nepgear? Our foremost duty is to protect our own citizens. We're CPUs, after all. Lift the restrictions! Lift the restrictions! Perfect! We're on the right track. Take that, and that, and that! The entire world fell into chaos in an instant. Please, don't talk like this has nothing to do with you. You're the commander-in-chief of our army, you know. "Our army"? The people only wage war and riot because you're controlling their minds! What the hell is that black substance? Like I said, I don't know either. These items were all provided by our client, and we're forbidden to pry any further. I'm scared. I feel like we're going to turn the world upside down. I wonder about that. None shall pass! Not even you, Peashy! 'Kay! Let's play right here, then! It seems that goddess is exactly who we've been looking for. I knew it. So the reason Peashy recognized me and Iffy right from the start... ...was probably because she knew the two of you in the other dimension. This is making my head spin! Right now, a part of my world is totally on the way to destruction! Are you saying Peashy was originally supposed to govern that place? I think so. So I need Plutia to bring her back immediately, even if she has to use force to do it. I don't want to force her. If we don't do anything, our nation will be in big trouble too! I know, but... Hello? Oh, yes. Hey, Neptune! Jeepers! N-Noire?! What are you still doing there? Why don't you go keep your citizens safe? But I... It's P-ko, you know? Oh, please. Aren't you a CPU? If you're gonna call yourself one, put your nation before your feelings! Are you telling me to get rid of P-ko? That's what I'd do. That's all I wanted to say. Later. Was I too harsh? No, I'm sure she'll bounce back. Maybe Noire could do it, but I sure can't. If you can't do it, then that's fine. Let's stay here, play some games and relax. This isn't the time for games, even for me... Why? If you're not gonna go, what difference does it make either way? No! Games are a means of entertainment, not an escape from reality. Escape from reality? I... This is fun! I knew it! I can't deal any damage after all! Here I come! Wh-Why? I'm no match for her! Sis... Sorry I'm late, Nepgear. Don't be. But, Sis... Come on, let's play some more! Nepgear, take care of the soldiers and monsters for me. Hey! Are you listening to me? They might break through the barricade. But... Go. Okay, got it. P-ko! I'll play with you now. I'll do things my way. Come at me, P-ko! Here comes a big one! Huh? Done already? It'll take more than that to bring ol' Neptuna down. You know that well, don't you, P-ko? "Neptuna"? I dunno! Nah, I'm sure you remember. I mean, I'm your Neptuna! I dunno! You do know! I dunno! You do know! I dunno. I don't need you! Weak! Boring! I won't play with you anymore. It takes one to know one! It takes one to know one! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! Eden has almost no believers yet, but I sensed massive amounts of Share Energy in Yellow Heart. Something's off here. Noire. Plutia! Why are you here? Because Neppy refused to play games with me. Excuse me? What about you? Should you be here? It's all right. I've got a sister I can rely on. If you want to keep rioting, you'd best be prepared! I see. CPUs! Shh! They heard us! I guess I've no choice but to take you head on! I thought everyone here had been turned into soldiers, but I see you managed to stick it out. S-Spare me! What should I do, I wonder? Lickity lick. That tickles! I knew you'd come! Accept my torrent of love, Noire! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! Got you now, P-ko. Lemme go! Lemme go! Lemme go! Lemme go! Lemme go! I'm never gonna let you go! Never again! I'd expect nothing less from you, Noire. But my love is unlimited! This is good. This is great! Rei, quit goofing off and go look for the other goddess. I'm right here. Oh dear. How? My friend just happened to know where the entrance was. By giving her information, I kept my chastity safe! You're not really my type, but you still need to be punished. Oh, do you think you could arrange for Noire to punish me instead? Oh? Speak of the goddess! There is nothing my sword can't cut! My! You're good. Then it's time I... took the extreme offensive! What the hell? A machine that provides Share Energy? How violent. You could've just asked to see it instead of breaking the wall down. Is this the secret behind Yellow Heart's strength? Ever heard of this thing called client confidentiality? So if someone happened to smash this thing to bits... What would happen to Peashy and the nation of Eden? Since you won't tell us, I guess we'll have to find out for ourselves. Fighting Viper! Lace Ribbon Dance! Nooo! Lemme go! Lemme go! I won't! I won't let go! No! Remember me! Please remember me, P-ko! Dunno, dunno, dunno! I don't know anything about you! Huh? What's wrong? What's going on? No! Lemme go! P-ko... P-ko! I hate you! But I like you. I love you, P-ko! I love you. I love you! I hate you... I hate you! It's okay. I don't mind if you hate me. So long as you're here. I hate you... And thus, the curtain fell on Eden's short-lived history. The riots in each nation died down without any major casualties. Everything went back to the way it was... or so it was supposed to. But Peashy's memories didn't return. Nep... tune? Take care, everyone. This is goodbye? Things will get lonely without you here. It feels like we've been friends forever. I won't forget any of you. Me neither. Oh, Gear. Here you go. Is this me? Thank you very much! Take good care of it, okay? Take care of yourself, Peashy. It doesn't matter if you don't remember us. We'll always be friends! 'Kay. I hope our counterparts in the other dimension make friends with Peashy as well.. I'm sure they'll do fine. It's you and me we're talking about. Okay then, everyone. It saddens me to no end that we have to part, but it's time. The portal can't stay open forever! Wait! Sis isn't here yet. It's time. Opening the portal! Hey! You're late, Neptune! Sorry! Thank you so much for coming here, Plutia. We'll definitely see each other again, right? Yup. Definitely. Take these with you, P-ko. Neptune, what's this? The most delicious thing in the whole wide world! U-Um... It's time to get into the portal. Okay. Bye bye, everyone. Let's go, Peashy. Neptuna? P-ko... I won't forget any of you. Me neither. Oh, Gear. Here you go. Huh? This isn't like the others— Take good care of it, okay? I will! Wow! I've never seen a Share Crystal this bright before! It's amazing! What does this mean, Neppy? As you can see, Planeptune is booming right now! Our Share value had been showing a gradual downward trend, but one day it suddenly skyrocketed, and now it's rapidly outstripping the values of the other three nations. How is this happening? Isn't it obvious? It's because Planeptune has what this era wants: 64-bit architecture! Stopping Eden's invasion was probably the single greatest contributor. Still, this feels like too drastic a change. Well, Nep-Nep did give it her all. Yeah, she did. Congrats, Sis. You know me! When I get serious, I can work miracles! That aside, here's today's real agenda! Pay close attention! I want to thank all of our citizens, so I'm thinking of opening up the Basilicom grounds and holding a huge celebration! I call it: the Dynamite Wonder Festival! Why? Why? Why did it end up like this? I'm just a social activist. So anyway, the festival starts tomorrow. You're all invited! Here! You called us here for this? I don't have time for this nonsense. I'm leaving. Hey, Blanc! Wait! Hey, wait! I know you didn't mean any harm, but don't you think you're being a bit insensitive, Neptune? Ever since that uprising, every nation except Planeptune has had to cope with plummeting Share values. Well, I know that. I'm sure it hit Blanc harder than the rest of us. We were overtaken in an instant by Planeptune, which had had the lowest Share value for years on end. And Lowee's an old and proud nation. Lastation's not even like that, but this is still so frustrating for me. Well, I'm sure we'll bounce back in no time. Hang on a sec. We signed a treaty of friendship, you know? It shouldn't matter who's got the most Sha— Well, it does. The treaty doesn't change the fact that we're still competing over Share Energy. Indeed. I'm sorry, but I'm not so selfless that I could bring myself to celebrate another nation's Share rise. Hey... What about 5pb? I'd asked her to perform at the opening ceremony. She's already scheduled to appear on my live stream that day, so that won't be happening. Vert... Aren't you coming either, Noire? Nope. I'm too busy. We still don't know anything about the Share-producing machine we found in Eden. And there's lots more I have to— Fine. But if you happen to have some free time, you're always welcome to come here. Okay? Neptune... See you later, Noire. Welcome home, Sis. Welcome home. It's good to be back. How did the investigation go? I believe we'll be able to report our findings tomorrow. Get a move on. Hey, let's play some games, Sis! The new version of Lowee Sports is out. So excited! Yeah, let's play. Ga-thunk! Ga-thunk! Ga-thunk! Ga-thunk! Hey there, viewers of Abnes Channel. Long time no see! I'm Abnes, ally of little girls everywhere! I've received word that tons of little girls are being gathered at Planeptune's Basilicom. Smells like a conspiracy to me! Time to swoop in and save those little girls! Ga-thunk! Your conspiracy ends here! D-Don't let their tricks fool you! This is a plot to deceive little girls! I'm sure this nation's little goddess is up to no good— Geez, be careful! It's you, the little goddess! At last, your time has come. I'll prove today, once and for all, that a little girl can't be a CPU! You'd best be prepared. Got that? Be a good girl and leave your CPU days behind! Er... Who were you again? She doesn't remember me... Sis, we need to deliver these right away! Yeah, I know. Hey, Nepgear. She can help you with the delivery. Oh, are you a volunteer? Could you take this to the Green Hill ride over there? I'm Abnes! Ally of little girls everywhere! We've met before! Huh? We have? They really don't remember me! Hello, Blanc? Can you make it after all? Huh? Geez, she's so pushy. I happen to be busy too, you know. Blanc! I'm here. Where are you? Blanc! Getter Ravine! What are you doing, Blanc?! Hand over the Shares, Neptune! What are you saying? The treaty of friendship prohibits taking Share Energy by force— But stealing it is okay? What is that supposed to mean? I don't get it. I looked up the Share movements of each nation. And surprise, surprise, Planeptune's Shares went up exactly as much as Lowee's went down. Lastation and Leanbox had their Shares stolen like that too. No wonder your Share value went through the roof, right, Neptune? Hold on. This is the first I've heard of this. I didn't even know you could do that— Sure you didn't. I'm telling the truth. Please believe me! Okay, let's say it wasn't you. Maybe Histoire did it. Histy? No way. Then maybe it was Nepgear! Sis! Don't fight! Please stop! You two, shut the hell up! This is an international dispute. No, we won't! There's no way Nepgear and the others would do something that bad! We're friends! Well, someone sure as hell did! Consider this a warning, then. But know this, Neptune. If you continue to feign ignorance, we'll declare war. What is going on? There. All better. Just be careful when you run. Wait, Purple Sister! This way! Wait! Behold ye, far and wide! The festival's a roaring success. Wonderfully done, Neptune. My, Noire. You came for me? You doing okay? E-mailing me from within maximum security? You've got some balls. Why, Noire, I just wanted to have a bit of girl talk with you. If you've got something to say, just spit it out. I'm busy. Blunt as always, I see. No wonder you don't have any friends. Out with it! Okay, okay. I've had a lot of time on my hands lately, you know? So I investigated my client. You know, the one from the Eden case. Just to be clear, I've done nothing to breach the terms of my contract. After all, it said nothing about what I could or couldn't do after its expiry. Who cares about that? Well? Did you figure anything out? Who's the mastermind? Well, you see... The time has come. Rei Ryghts? Isn't she just someone who got dragged into your mess? Yes, that's what I thought all along too. Are you saying she was a con artist? I would have seen through any mere scam. So, to have fooled even me, Rei must be... Must be what? Something much more sinister... I suppose? You want me to give the official address? Yes. Neppy ran off somewhere and hasn't come back. Very well. I wonder what happened to her. Lady Histoire! What's going on?! Finally... it has returned. My continent, my nation: Tari! What's that? Who is that? You there, the not-so-little goddess! Little girls are being held captive there! Stop goofing off and save them! O-Okay! Oh, you're here already, Planeptune's CPU? Wait, are you Rei Ryghts? Oh, I don't like that one bit. I mean, that's a pretty lame name for a goddess, wouldn't you say? Are you a new goddess too? Say what? Would you mind not insulting me? I've been a goddess for far longer than you have. I'm Tari's CPU. The CPU of the great nation that rules this land. Tari's CPU? What's with that continent? Who's Neppy talking to? I don't know. The only thing I do know is that that thing shines with the light of a Share Crystal. The one talking to Neptune is, without a doubt, a CPU. Tari? You mean the ancient superpower that was said to have been destroyed eons ago? Bzzt. That's where you're wrong! It wasn't destroyed at all. It's just been waiting all along for the perfect time to make a comeback. Okay, so assuming you are who you say... What are you after? This land, and all those who inhabit it. Let me have it all. Do that, and I might even spare your life. In fact, this all belonged to me in the first place. Shut your trap and give it back, bitch! That's how it is. Screw you. This is Planeptune— my nation. You think I'd just hand it over to you? Oh? Is that your final answer? You sure? Wanna think it over? There are no other options. In that case... Energy charge, okay! Threatening me won't get you anywhere. That so? Just a sec. How about this, then? Can you still say that now, O great CPU? Pong Laser Cannon... Fire! What are you doing?! We need those! Look out! Are you okay? I can't tell the world about this without a camera! Well? Singing a different tune now? Welcome to Vert's Room. Today's guest is 5pb, our diva. It seems she'll be playing one of the singles from her new album for the first time on today's show. Stay tuned until the end. Did Uni reply? Yeah! She says she wasn't allowed to go to Planeptune's festival either. Will we not get to hang out with Nepgear anymore? What are you talking about? There's no way that'd happen. But Sis was really mad. No good. I can't get through to the Internet or phone network. Looks like all of our communications systems have been destroyed! Which means... We can't look for outside help. Changed your mind, huh? You'd have to be a retard to stick to your guns after all that. You're right. I have another answer for you. I won't let you have your way any longer. This is my nation. These are my people. And I'll protect them all! No good. I can't get through to the Internet or phone network. Which means... Oh, come on! The pre-orders for the new console just opened, but I can't get through! Hey! Nuh-uh. That won't work at all. Don't worry. We'll find your mom for you. Compa! Ge-Ge! Nep-Nep's fighting. Yes. I'm gonna go help her— What are you saying? Helping little girls evacuate comes first! I agree, Nepgear. Histy! Iffy! I'm glad to see you're okay. Yeah, we're all right. We should lead the people away from the city. Got it. Everyone! Please hurry and evacuate in that direction. Sis... Please wait just a little bit longer. Blaze Break! Like I said, it doesn't matter how many times you attack me. It's useless. That lightning certainly is powerful, but I shouldn't be taking this much damage. Something's not right. Mom! That's good. Ge-Ge? What's wrong? It just feels like the Share Energy within me is disappearing. Negear, you should probably deactivate HDD. I don't know why, but our Share reserves are dropping rapidly. Now, then. Let's charge up the Pong Laser nice and good again! What should we target this time? There are a lot of people there, so it'll do. Stop it! Don't wanna. Lock on. No, Lady Neptune is... Lady Neptune! Oh no! We're done for! What should we do? I don't wanna die! We'll be fine, everyone. Calm down. I'm sure Sis will save us! But she's been defeated! It's all over for us! Nepgear! You mustn't! We still don't have enough Share Energy. What's with the gloomy look? Rainy Ratnapura! Is this your so-called event? A bit tacky, don't you think? Noire! Vert too! You came? I simply came here as 5pb's chauffeur. Hi! Sorry to keep you waiting, Nepgear. Uni! 5pb! Thank you, Uni. No problem. I'll go join Sis and the others, then. Okay! Please do my part as well. Is that 5pb? What's she doing here? Listen, everyone! There's nothing to worry about. Let's believe in our goddesses! My, she certainly did dredge up something rather absurd. Who exactly is she? She's apparently the CPU of Tari, the superpower of old. But I can't imagine how a nation that collapsed so long ago got its hands on so much Share Energy. Look there. Eden was using a similar device. It's a machine that creates Share Energy. In that case, we should start by destroying it, should we not? I'll take care of the woman. I have to say, four-on-one's a bit annoying. My powers are draining away... What's... going on? What did you do? I'm losing my Share Energy! Wait, is that thing... a device that steals Shares?! Exactly. Oh, the laser should be fully charged by now. Can I push the big red button, then? No, don't! I'm still gonna do it, though. Fire! Ice Sanctuary! What? Attack from under the laser, and she can't hit you with her lightning. Right? Blanc! Rom! Ram! We did it, Rom! We're the best! Yeah, Ram. The best! I can feel the Share Energy. Histy. Go ahead. Thanks, Blanc. I calmed down and thought about it. I realized that everything made sense if Eden's machine could steal Shares. Way to go, Blanc. But you went and kept the best part all to yourself. No fair. Sis! Let's begin. Now it's our turn. You're too late! I've already taken enough Share Energy to destroy the world. "Destroy"? Didn't you want this nation for yourself? Are you retarded? I couldn't care less about that! What I really want... is to lay waste to everything. Why? Aren't you a CPU too? Yeah, I am. Yet all they did was bitch and whine. They never obeyed me! "They"? Tari cracked down on citizens that showed any discontent toward their CPU. That made people lose faith in her, and the nation eventually lost its Shares and collapsed. The so-called "Great Tari Crash." Sounds like she reaped what she sowed. You're wrong! They stole my nation from me. This time, I'll be the one doing the stealing! Recharge! I feel so sorry for you. You never had any friends, did you? I'll offer you my sympathy, but you can never have our world! The world lies shattered into pieces But I don't need to pick up all the fragments I'm going with maximum output for the next one. There's only one that matters to me Your petty magic won't be able to stop this! My true love is all I need find Vert. Noire. Blanc. Within the moonlit darkness Uni. Rom. Ram. I stand alone, with my heart of stone Nepgear. Lend me your strength! Singing a song for the future I bet you're just gonna try and destroy the Pong Laser. My words don't take shape But music doesn't have any rights or wrongs Wonder if you can pull it off before it finishes charging. It simply forms an irreplaceable bond I'll get stronger just by staying here I'll send ya flying there at the speed of light! For this is where I met you Where are you even aiming? The moment my faint voice Reaches people's hearts Eat this! It will give them courage That doesn't even tickle! To overcome anything I play my heart out Take care of this, Sis! My hard beat cannot be stopped Not on my watch! May my song reach the ends of the earth It's all pointless! Go, Neptune! The moment my faint voice Reaches people's hearts It will give them courage To overcome anything That's charged enough! May my song echo across the world If you've got it out, I can cut it off! You piece of shit! Fire! Victory Slash! My continent... Give it up. What you desire will never come to pass. Time to throw in the towel. Did you think that sinking my continent was all you needed to do to win? If I unleashed the energy I have left, I could send half the world flying, you know? Indeed. The hatred is surprisingly strong in this one. However... In the end, hatred is all it is. It doesn't matter if we use up all our Share Energy. There's only one job we goddesses have. Right, Nepgear? Yeah, yeah, play hero all you want... in the afterlife! Girls... I'll go too. I can still do this! I can blow them up, at least! And then I'll crush the world to bits and piec— I'm afraid we have a problem. This world is gonna be mine someday. Say what? Who're you? All good, old hag. Off to the dark abyss of despair with you! N-No! My powers! We finally got an anti-crystal back, but should we really have used it for this, old hag? Let's say I decided it on a whim. The "whimsical" trait only works for characters under twenty. Wait! Did you just help us? Don't be stupid. I will always and forever be your enemy. Oh, okay. But just for today, let me express my gratitude. Thank you, Bar Whore! Who're you calling a bar whore?! Thanks to your efforts, we recovered our Shares and stand here today to celebrate the completion of the new Planeptower. Have your Shares remained stable since then? Of course. We merely had them stolen by Tari. We hadn't lost the trust of our people. No problems here, either. Good to hear. Let's begin the ceremony, then. Sis! You gotta say it. You gotta. Hey, Neptune. How should I put this? Uh... Back then... Are you talking about the time you attacked me? I'm sorry. I felt like you'd taken advantage of our treaty of friendship, and all I could see was red. Frankly speaking, it was kinda fun fighting you all-out for the first time in a while. So I came up with an idea. What idea? I'll tell you later. It's all thanks to your faith that we were able to complete the new Planeptower. The city of Planeptune is recovering by the day, too. As this nation's CPU, I'm grateful to you all. Thank you so very much. Oh, and one more thing. I'd like to take this opportunity to make an announcement. And that is... One moment, please. Yeah, I gotta do it in this form! Well... I, Neptune, Planeptune's CPU, on this day, declare the treaty of friendship null and void! What?! There's no need for that old thing anymore. We're true buddies now! Don't you agree, Noire, Vert, Blanc? I suppose. You want to compete fair and square from now on, I take it? I guess even you can be clever once in a while. Then how about we hold an exhibition match right now? Let's do this! My heart's all aflutter. Hey, wait for me! I'm the protagonist here! Uni! Rom! Ram! Count me in. We're gonna show them we're the best. Yeah, the best. Looks like things are going to get chaotic once again. Sis... I can't do this! Doesn't that sword power up by taking goddesses' lives? And you and I are the only goddesses left. One of us has to be sacrificed in order to take that thing down! Sis... Do it, Nepgear. Okay. Got it. Forgive me! Ouchies! Sis... Sis! What? It's useless! We're all still here! Useless, useless, useless! N-No! I'll bweak... Her fever's not going down at all. The poor thing. An illness where you keep having nightmares about bad ends, was it? Yes. It took me three days to finally remember that the CPU from three generations ago fell prey to it as well. Apparently it's called "Bad End Syndrome." Bad End Syndrome... How was that, Sis? My swordsmanship has improved quite a bit, wouldn't you say? Indeed. As a reward, I'll allow you to purchase this eggplant. Who the hell are you?! All they have in common is the pigtails... Looks like Uni's caught the same illness. Thanks for everything, Sis. We'll live happily ever after. Kekeke. Come, my little lovelies. Let us seal our vows with a little licking! Please, no licking... Gross... No... Same here. Don't you worry! Histoire remembered the remedy for it as well. Right? Yes. If you boil a Walkthrough Flower and ingest it, you'll be cured of this illness in no time. Really? Where can I find one? Their numbers have really dwindled lately. I hear they used to grow in some caves near the Lowee-Lastation border, but I'm not sure if that still holds. So long as we have the slightest chance... ...we'll go look for it! But this isn't enough. Don't you have any other information? There's one other place that's rumored to have it, but it's quite far away. I'll go as far as I have to! That's right. We have to do this for the girls! Is that so? Well, the place in question... Yahoo! Who would've thought this "faraway" place would lie in another dimension? I had no idea our Histoire had learned how to open dimensional portals! Look! That must be this dimension's Planeptune. We can see Plutia there... Yeah, and... P-ko too! Huh? Wait, what? Whaaat? Ow... And here I wanted to transform and make a graceful landing! Why?! Maybe we can't activate our HDD forms in this dimension. Blanc! And... Oh? M-Me? Zoinks! Noire too? Hey, what's the big idea? An indecipherable algorithm How could you just fall on me like that? And a long-awaited installation Don't you have an ounce of sense in your body? There's nothing wrong with kicking back and relaxing This is weird. Noire and Blanc should be over at the caves right now. So pick the easy mode Oh, I know! We don't notice the missing pixels This must be a fake Noire! Impostoire for short! Or what they signify That's not shorter at all. And before we know it, we're locked into nightmare mode And I'm not a fake. For that matter, who are you? Me? I'm... But you hold all the flags in your hand Neppy! A single button press can change everything Vert! So open up that hidden treasure chest Hey, Plutia! We meet again. And complete this quest I'm glad to see you made it. Rules, regulations, and the end of the world So you're the ones Plutia told us about... Are all story elements we don't need The goddesses of the other dimension, I take it? Let's aim for a new world We're the CPUs here. What? Twinkle, twinkle Gracie*Star But I did tell you. Build a bridge connecting the past That there was a Noire, Blanc, and Vert in this dimension too. To a brand new future Really? Did you really tell us that they were such spitting images? History keeps on repeating itself I did too. Deck it in the colors of a rainbow Do I look that similar to your Blanc? And grab hold Totally. You two look and talk the same! Of a hyperdimensional victory Looks like your personalities are the same, too. Twinkle, twinkle Fortune*Star That means the Noire you know must also be a top-tier CPU. And lead us to a brand new day Right. I guess Noire's a loner over here too. Let's aim for Say what? A hyperdimensional victory It really is the size that counts, isn't it? And grab hold Indeed. Size rules the world. Of an ultradimensional victory Double boing! She's twice as annoying today. Man, it just wouldn't feel right without this. Such a soothing sight. Welcome. Whoa! It's this dimension's Histoire! So tiny! So cute! R-Really? Hey, Plutia, lemme have your Histoire! No can do. Spoilsport. P-ko... Come here, P-ko! Nep... tun... Oh, it's fine. Both Neptune and Neptuna are fine by me. Call me whatever you want. You'll still be the same to me. Now, come on! Nep... Neptuna! P-ko! Neptuna! P-ko! So weak, Neptuna! I see you've made a full recovery, P-ko. That's where we'll find the Walkthrough Flowers? The Cursed Hell Devil Death Bloody Spectral Tower. Apparently they're at the top of the tower, on the 10,000th floor. The 10,000th floor? That's one crazy name. It must be filled with super-dangerous monsters, right? Indeed. I couldn't begin to tell you. If it weren't for this situation, we wouldn't want to go anywhere near it either. Wait, "we"? We're coming with you. You can't transform, right? P'll go too! Gotta keep Neptuna safe! Thanks, Plutia... All of you... Thank you too, P-ko. Um, please don't forget. The portal back to your dimension will open in three hours. Here. The next time we'll be able to open one will be three whole years from now! So be sure to make it back to the Basilicom in time! But, you know, isn't it impossible to go up and down 10,000 floors in three hours? It says here that there's a warp point near the top floor that'll let you get out in an instant. Three hours is enough time for a one-way trip. Still feels like cutting it close. Not like we have a choice, though. All right. Let's head to the Cursed Blah Blah Spectral Tower! Who'd've thought we'd find a newly-constructed elevator that takes you directly from the 4th floor to the 9,999th? But that two-and-a-half-hour elevator ride wore me out. By the way, it says we have to use a warp point to get to the top floor from here. It also says there are some formidable monsters on this floor. Yes. They're already here. These look tough. Makes me wanna go wild! I'll join you. We'll take care of these scrubs! Go on ahead, ladies. Thanks! We'll take you up on that offer! There are two warp points, Bert! You're right. Wait, "Bert"? Did you just call me Bert? Yup. Bert! What's up, Vert? She called me by a nickname for the first time. Are you crying? Now, of all times? Vert's been longing for someone to do that, huh? Here are some more. It's finally my turn! Me too! Now bring it on! I'll hold them while you reach the climax, girls. Glad to see you haven't changed. Thanks anyway! Whoa, that was close! This one leads upstairs. Made it to the top! There should be Walkthrough Flowers somewhere around here. P'll look for it! Yeah. Let's split up! Make like a kangaroo... and hop! This is it! I found some! Neptune?! This thing's way too huge! Run for it! Not this way too! We're done for! Neptuna! P-ko. Neptuna, Bert, run! Okay, thanks! Almost there. Stop that! Lemme go! Vert... I'll take these, Neptune, but you'd better make it back too. Got it! I'll be right there, P-ko! Hey! Let her go! Neptuna... P-ko! Hurry, Plutia. Oh, I should open the portal. Wait. Neptune's not here yet. Don't you have to get those flowers to Gear and gang? Stop bullying Neptuna! Let's go, P-ko! Okay, Neptuna! I'm opening the portal. Please take care of Neptune. I'm sure Neppy'll be just fine. Neptuna... Why didn't you go? You were in trouble. How could I possibly leave you behind? But... That's not all. I wanted to fight with you. This time as allies. Neptuna... Hey! What are you still doing here? Good work, ladies. Don't give us that. What will you do now? Don't sweat it. Things'll work out somehow. I'm the protagonist, after all. Right? Let's get back to the Basilicom for now. Huh? That's weird. Should I take it out and blow on it? Don't be so rough... That surprised me! What just happened? Neptune? Peashy, too. How? Noire, Blanc... Huh? Huuuh? What? No way. Me? I'm here too. What's going on? Are they your dimension's Noire and Blanc? Yeah. That means... Did I just cross dimensions due to a malfunctioning warp point? Go me! I'm not the protagonist for nothing! Brotagonist! You really do look just like me. That's a cute outfit. As is yours. I can't believe this. Hey, are you... Wh-What is it? Are you a loner? Say what?! Don't, Peashy! I only just upgraded to the new model! Gotta play with Nepgear! I will, I will! Please, just give that back! That's P-ko for you. So the portal that opened due to that malfunction is still open? Can we use it to go back and forth all we want now? Probably. It should be fine for a while. In that case, I'd like to meet Compa and my counterparts in the other dimension sometime. Yeah. I'd love to meet them too! I thought this might come up, so I brought a picture of them. No way. They're kids? Iffy looks so cute! N-No, Compa's cuter. Oh, it's done! What's going on? You'll find out soon enough. Here. For you. Wait, is this... Peashy made it. P's pudding! That's amazing, P-ko. There's enough for everyone. All right, girls. Let's make a toast with P-ko's pudding! To Planeptune, to the two dimensions, and to Gamindustri... Cheers!

Yuki (Modified loligeddon) Hear me Gamindustri residents far and wide. This day represents the first step into a new era. It brings me great pleasure to be with everyone on this joyous day. As you all know, this world has been torn by strife over the past few years. Goddess Black Heart governs Lastation. Goddess White Heart governs Lowee. Goddess Green Heart governs Leanbox. And I, Purple Heart, govern Planeptune. Our nations have vied for Share Energy, the source of a nation's strength. Sometimes, we goddesses even battled for ownership. But now that will become a thing of the past. The treaty of friendship that shall be signed today will prohibit taking Share Energy by force. From now on, making one's country a better place will become the means to acquire Share Energy. Thus fostering worldwide development and progress. We hereby swear to overcome our past and create a world filled with hope. Yahoo! All done. All done. The difference between your two personalities is as drastic as ever Neptune. That aside, Noire, what did you think of my speech? Well it was not bad... Though I am pretty sure Histoire wrote it for you. I do not like that only you were in the limelight. Aw Blanc, let's not talk about that anymore. I regret using janken to decide the speaker. Why not just let it go? Complaining about it now seems childish. That is right. After all, we are no longer enemies! We are friends now, right? A month has already passed since that deeply moving ceremony. Neptune-san! You are not fulfilling any of your responsibilities as goddess. Sonic jump! Dang it. Are you listening to me? Well, it seems I am complacent, now that we have peace, you know? Neptune, goddesses have a lot of work– Onee-chan. The tea is ready. Nepgear thank you. Want to go head-to-head? Sure. Nepgear-san too... Enough is Enough! Nep? Hey, the manual said not to do that. Do not try this at home everyone. Ai-chan! Compa. Did you just get off work? Yes. I am on my way to Nep-Nep's place. Oh, then I will join you. We should live by regulations that– Please take a look at this. At the Share Crystal, not me! Is something wrong with the Share Crystal? The Share Crystal that collects our nation's Share Energy is currently showing a downward trend. We still have a lot left. So there nothing to worry about, right? Of course there is! You know where we get Shares from, right? Oh... From the faith in everyone's hearts towards their goddess, right? Indeed. This downward trend shows our citizens' hearts are slowly drifting away from Neptune. What? I do not remember doing anything to make them dislike me. But you have not done anything to make them like you recently. W-Well... Nepgear is right. Excuse us Histoire-sama. We happened to overhear. With IF-san and Compa-san I do not mind. Ai-chan, not you too! Are you going to take Histy's side as well? Compa, you are different right? Nep-Nep, look at this. Huh? "We do not need goddesses." Gah. To make these people understand you, Nep-Nep, you need to work harder. Now everybody is against me! I am in a major pinch! A pinch is what our nation is in! For one thing, goddesses are supposed to work constantly for the good of their citizens. That is why you possess the great powers you do. I hate getting lectured. A wise man once said, "With great power comes great responsibility." How can I escape this? Oh, I know! I will go learn what it means to be a goddess! Huh? Learn? From whom? Uh... Noire! What? Lastation's Noire. Hey, I do not understand what is happening... Why is a neighboring nation's goddess sleeping at our church? Oh, do not mind me, you can keep working. It will not bother me. It will bother me! I am sorry, Noire-san. Onee-chan. What is the problem? You are here to learn to be a good goddess, right? Sorry, but I will have to refuse. I do not intend to help out my enemies. Hey, we are not enemies, right? We signed a treaty of friendship. We are frien– The fact remains we vie for Shares. So we are enemies. Come on, these uncute things you say are why people say you have no friends. I-I do have a friend. Really? Who? Their name? Where are they from? Huh? Uh... Well... Onee-chan, I am done with the documents. Uni, thank you. Set them over there. U-Um... I finished quickly this time, right? I worked really hard– Yes, I suppose. You have reached average levels now, I suppose. Hey! Is the friend you were talking about Uni-chan? I'm not sure little sisters count as "friends." That is not it. I have other– Really? You are saying that but aren't you a loner? No, I am not! Nepgear... Sorry. My Onee-chan interrupted you. It's fine. Onee-chan is always like that with me. Onee-chan will not praise me unless I do a better job than her, it seems. Although, that is impossible for me. Uni-chan... I cannot even transform yet. Well, neither can I, and neither can Rom-chan or Ram-chan. I-I guess... I am sure out of the four of us, I will be the first able to transform. Of course! But I am not going to lose to you. A mail from Rom-chan... I am here in Lastation but how did she know? I told her. She became really jealous. So lucky. Nepgear-chan and Uni-chan are having such a nice time together. Why do we not get to visit another country? Do not be so selfish. I want to play with Nepgear too! You are interrupting my work. Why? Why? Why? Hey! Shut up! I said I was working! Onee-chan, you big meanie. We are going, Rom-chan. Wait, Ram-chan! Sorry about that. No, that is fine. Unlike us who have been fighting each other for a long time, your little sisters are so innocent. Perhaps we can be friendlier to each other too? Just because we stopped using force does not mean we can become best friends overnight. More importantly... Yes, please allow me to continue with my proposal. Whoops! Stop it! Do not touch any more documents! What? You said a goddess's first duty was to sort out paperwork– Do that at yourown workplace! Jeez, I am losing my motivation. Why are you being so condescending? Excuse me... You have monster hunting requests from your citizens, right? How about goddess lessons while out on a mission? Oh yes. Then she would not need to touch any documents. I suppose you are right. This looks good. It is close to the border too. Does that mean you are telling us to go back to Planeptune after we are done? Of course. You are interrupting my work. Okay everyone! Time to go monster hunting! Yes! Wait, why are you acting like the leader? We are clearing monsters from two places. The Nursune Plains and the nearby Torune Cave. Both of them should be pretty easy to hand– Onee-chan. What is it? No one is listening. I am so tired. Compa, are you okay? Is this the famous "you cannot read what it says from the back" sign? Onee-chan... That is how most signs work. Hey! You are slowing down. Jeez, Noire you are being too serious. Is that a problem? Do you not get tired of it? It does not bother me. I want to create a much, much better nation. Well so do I, but I would rather have fun doing it. You have too much fun doing things. She is here. Our goddess is here! It is Black Heart-sama! Oh dear! Access What? You are going to transform now? The second rule of being a goddess: let your people see your full majesty. Everyone, could you please tell me about the monsters? But how is it majestic to transform in front of them? So this is the Nursune Plains, huh? Yes. Slimes have overrun the area and we do not know what to do. Understood. It seems our neighbors Neptune-san and Nepgear-san, will deal with them for us. Nep? You are suddenly giving them to us? We are supposed to do it? The third rule: show off at every opportunity. I will take pictures to show the public okay? This is such a pain. Well, Slimes are very easy to defeat at least. Let's do this! Nepgear! Okay Onee-chan. Way to go Nepgear. That is my little sister. Thank you. Chesuto Giving it all I have! You! How do you like this? There are too many of them. We should help, Ai-chan. Of course. Ai-chan! Compa! Here I go. We are too strong for them. Now victory is guaran– Onee-chan, we should help out– We cannot. This is for them to deal with themselves. Okay. Hey, do not touch me there! This feels gross. Hey, stay out of there. This tickles! I am going to die! Someone help! I...no more... I will send your souls all the way back to Hell! Spectral Edge Neptune... Put more effort into this. I do not want to look at jelly or meat buns for a while. Why were you not in goddess form? If transformed, the Slimes would have been easy. Well, it turned out okay right? You just had other people do it for you! That is why your Share– Fine, get all the rest you want. I will do the rest myself. Show me the way to Torune Cave. O-Okay. I will go too. It will be okay. Uni, stay and look after Nepgear and the others. Okay. This way. Thank you. So short-tempered, that Noire. Oh Uni-chan! Did you take any good pictures? Wow. So cute! I am sending these to my address. Begone! A dead end? I must be done. An Ancient Dragon? Quite the strong one, aren't we? Take this! Hiya! Yahoo! Y-You... Why did you transform back? I am not sure. It happened suddenly– Neptune! Noire! You are supposed to transform at times like these! Watch this! Behold the power of a goddess. Do not try to show off! I owe you one. Leave this one to me. Cross Combination I-I did not need your help. I could have done that by myself. Of course. But helping each other is what friends do. It is not like I consider you a friend– Why did you choose this area? Because I wanted you to leave– Because rumors would spread across the border and Planeptune would hear about my efforts? That way, I could replenish my Share Energy. Thank you, Noire. But we also have to let everyone know about the goddess who was almost defeated. What? Keep that a secret! Hey everyone! Hey. Noire lost. Neptune! We are friends, right? Hey! Black Heart-sama and Purple Heart-sama did a hyper magic combo and defeated the monsters! Hooray! Hooray! That story gets more amazing every time... Hooray! Hooray! Why did my transformation revert? Hooray! So they defeated the monsters in the caves for us? Now we can look for you-know-what in peace. Amazing! As expected from Noire-san. Nep? You mean as expected of me, right? Neptune-san, I am still not convinced you are behind this. Histy, that is so mean. Nepgear, what is wrong? Onee-chan, someone put weird pictures of me on the net. Huh? Those are all pictures I sent to my email address. Nepgear, you are so cute Nepgear! This is so embarrassing. Nep-ko, did you send it to the wrong address? No way, of course not– Ah. I forwarded to a public mailing list... I knew it. But the comments are all pretty positive. "Visual shock"? "It hit just the right spot." "Planeptune still has a lot left." People really like it. Huh? Could the reason our Share Energy went up suddenly... ...be because of these pictures? You are amazing Nepgear! R-Really? Then if we show these to even more of the public... Huh? Nepgear, do it for our shares Nepgear! What, wait a moment. Onee-chan? I am worried about where this country is headed in more ways than one. I will post them all over. Stop it! We should live by regulations that– Wh-What is this? An explosion of art. Ga-thunk! I will be saving little girls all over the world again today. Lowee is a place I longed to visit. Nepgear, I had a feeling you felt that way. Rom-chan and Ram-chan told me to come play. Apparently Blanc-san does not let them leave the country. Yes, Blanc can be a real party pooper sometimes. Someone should tell her she will end up alone like Noire if she keeps that up. Did you forget? I am right here. Wait. Who are you calling a loner? Sorry. Sorry. But telling you about it clearly might push you to change yourself. I do not want to hear that from a slacker goddess! Maybe it was a mistake to come after all. She fell for it! It worked. Rom-sama! Ram-sama! What do you think you are doing? Run for it! Wait right there! Are you certain about this? Putting this plan into action will revolutionize this world. Hold it right there. I am aware. Scary! We definitely need to keep this secret until we begin. Rom-sama! Ram-sama! Run for it! You lot... How many times do I have to tell you to keep it down when I am trying to work? I-I am so sorry! Onee-chan... Look, look! Huh? This is...? Onee-chan, it is you. Ram-chan and I drew it. My precious book... You two! She has the same expression now! Hold it right there! Run for it! Nepgear! Uni-chan! You came? Yes. We came to play. Yahoo! Blanc. Guess who it is! Teehee. Anyway, we heard a new theme park opened up in Lowee, so everyone came to have fun. Histoire contacted me and said to teach you about being a goddess though. Oh that. You can forget about that. I did not learn much last time! Well excuse me. I heard about the theme park as well. Wouldn't it be fun if everyone went together? Super Nitten Land? I want to go! I want to go! Please take us! So excited! Could you take my little sisters along? What about you? Onee-chan... You are not coming? I... cannot. What? More work? Just skip it. A wise man of the past once said, "Only fools and horses work." That man was not wise. Either way, I cannot go. Wait for me Ram-chan! You two, put on your coats! Nepgear, you are forgetting the tickets! Nepgear! Uni-chan! Where did you go? Here! Right here! A Slime coin. This one has an Aeruu. Ah, it is a Tertis block. And this one is a Tesrit. No fun. I will take some. Other nations' goddesses have come all this way. Blanc should have come along. Honestly, I do not understand her at all. Well certainly, she needs to mature a little more. Like me. Come to think of it Vert, what brings you to Low– Nep! This turtle is after my peaches! No! Someone help! Nep! Rom-chan! It is a Dette'ryuu coin. A rare item! That one is Dette'ryuu too. And that one too. They are all Dette'ryuu. But, I think I have enough. Let's take some for Onee-chan. What? Onee-chan did not even come with us. Yes but... I understand. We can take a bunch back with some for Onee-chan too. Yeah! Yay! Lick. Huh? What is wrong, Nepgear? I wonder where Rom-chan and Ram-chan went... Earlier, I saw them go that way. Rom-chan? Ram-chan? Ah-kekekekeke. Rom-chan! Ram-chan! What are you doing to them? Lickie I am only interested in little girls. That went well, Trick-sama. The fun is just getting started. Rom-chan... Ram-chan... I am extremely sorry. Blanc-sama gave me specific orders not to allow anyone through. Aw, but we are goddesses too, so it is fine right? I am sorry. Goddesses or not... At least let us apologize please! It is our fault Rom and Ram were kidnapped. We have already mobilized the guards to search for them. We know that. Leave. You are always causing trouble. Rom... Ram... It is all my fault. If I were only... As your sister... more responsible... I have to do something. Anything. Oh, yes. That– Ga-thunk! Ga-thunk! Ga-thunk! I have found you! Who are you? I am Abnes. Ally of little girls everywhere. I am the star reporter for the hit net show "Abnes Channel." Do you not recognize me? Come now, let the live broadcast start! Live broadcast? Hey, stop it before I– Now, have your little sisters Rom-chan and Ram-chan been kidnapped as rumored? Blanc-chan? How did you know? So it is true. I am so worried. So, your cute little sisters have been kidnapped. How do you feel Blanc-chan? Honestly, that Blanc. An emergency like this is no time to be overly stubborn. Yes, Noire is supposed to be the one who always acts tough. Excuse me? Um everyone, the truth is– Onee-chan, what is going on over there? In other words, your little sisters' kidnapping is your fault, Blanc-chan? Well... Look at this! This little girl goddess does not have any excuse. Being a goddess is impossible for little girls after all. They should be playing games and living carefree lives instead. Abnes Channel stands firmly opposed to little girls playing goddess. Hey! What is going on here? Who are you? I am Neptune. Planeptune's goddess. You are a goddess? You technically look old enough to be a teenager, but your body is too underdeveloped. You are a little girl. A little girl I say! What? Did I get called a little girl by an even littler girl? What? In what way am I a little girl? It takes one to know one, you know! So that means you are a little girl since you called me one first. Did you just call me a little girl again? Hold it right there! I will let you off with a warning today, little girl goddess. What was that? I will take you on little girl! Poor widdle girlie. Honestly, what was that about? I wonder how they broke in. Blanc-san! Pull yourself together, Blanc-san. I-I will go get help! What is wrong? If many of Lowee's residents saw that broadcast, it might have caused her Shares to crash. Oh, yes. When Share reserves are low, goddesses cannot use their powers right? I do not think this has to do with Shares, since she would not feel the effects so quickly. Then... Everyone... There is still something we can do. I know how we can find Rom-chan and Ram-chan. The truth is, Blanc and I have been pursuing a certain plan. Lowee used to offer a satellite imagery service. Were you aware of this? If I remember correctly, it was called Terra View, right? That closed down around ten years ago. Yes, but actually that satellite is still functioning, and it can relay images of the surface. Although, they are very low-resolution. The data can be analyzed using software developed at Leanbox's research institute to produce high-res images. Wow! That is our Vert! Your country is so advanced. And so I made Blanc an offer. In exchange for Lowee's photographic data, our country would let her have the software. What? That means that you two would have data on the whole world to yourselves. Huh? It would be troublesome if people see too much of what we do. No, we were thinking of sharing this data with everyone. It was Blanc's suggestion. "We signed a treaty of friendship, so our four nations should use it equally." Really? So we were looking for the right timing to announce it. Like a surprise present. Pretty nice, right? The analysis is complete. Now we know where the kidnapper went to hide. Oh my. This is... Lickety lickety lick... No! Rom-chan? The little girls have finally awakened! Is it okay to lick you two all over? Lickety lickety lick Hey! What do you think you are doing to Rom-chan? Stop it! N-No! Stop! Trick-sama? I called them and delivered our ransom demands. Wait, what are you doing? As you can see, I am healing them. The saliva from my licks has healing effects. Is that so? So they were hiding in an attraction under construction in the end. All right, time to break in and kick butt! Wait a moment. Nep? In this situation, we need to make sure the hostages are safe first. No! Stop! Let us go! That is quite enough! Onee-chan? Another little girl? Vert Onee-chan! Release those girls. I will take their place! Huh? I am a gentleman and only like little girls. I do not care about big breasts or whatever. Wh-What is wrong with large breasts? They are just doomed to sag. Looks like you have made me angry! Y-You are a goddess? Green Heart, transformation complete. Oh no. The ransom is no longer my biggest problem. Kekekeke. Your wimpy attacks will not work on me! We will see about that. Taste my maelstrom lance! Rainy Ratnapura No! That was easy. Oh? Where did Rom-chan and Ram-chan go? Geh, a goddess... Onee-chan! She was in on it too! Okay. You are an idiot to think you could make a fool out of us. Oh, that was only Trick-sama so... Also, we only kidnapped them because some weird old hag put us up to it. Hm? That sounds like what an underling would say. Th-That's right! I am just an ordinary underling. So, I will just be going... Did you think it would be that easy! Lace Ribbon Dance I thought so! I will protect these little girls, even at the cost me my life. That is my gentleman's justice. Hmm? Where did the little girls go? How lively they are. Honestly, little girls really are the best. Lickety lickety lick What do you think you are doing with my precious little sisters? You will pay for that... You damn pervert. Pervert? That is a compliment to me! Is that so? In that case, I will compliment you to death! Prepare yourself! You damn pervert! You damn pervert! Super pervert! Tanzerin Trombe Hooray for little girls! You picked a fight with a goddess. You better not have any complaints. Rom. Ram. I am sorry. I let this happen to you. I am a failure as an older sister. Onee-chan. We brought you these. Dette'ryuu coins! Come on out, kidnappers! I will nep-nep you black and blue! Onee-chan... Emergency Exit Maybe the others already took care of them... What? Lack of sleep? Yes. That is why I lost consciousness, and why I did not go with you to the park. You are ridiculous, jeez. I have been doing all-nighters, and did not have the energy to deal with you. And yet you still saved Rom and Ram. Thank you so much, Vert, Noire. Neptune as well. Thank you for defending me during that broadcast. Aw, it was not a big deal. That bratty little girl deserved to get chased off. Look, Onee-chan! That is a nice drawing. Ram! Stop doodling on those. You have so many copies of the same book. It is fine right? You cannot. Why? W-Well... That is the story I spent all these nights writing! In other words, Blanc, does that mean you wrote a doujinshi? What? Uni, what is it about? A girl who falls from the sky and a boy born with a special powers save the world together. Oh, so you are supposed to read this as "destiny"? Do not read it! Amazing. The main character awakened to a new power. This is so cool! Stop reading it! I have to do something. Anything. Oh, yes. That– Ga-thunk. I found you! Oops. Wrong room. Help us! Wow. You would not expect any less of Leanbox's diva, 5pb-chan, would you? Yes! I do not care if this is a concert, they are being too noisy. Put yourself in the position of those working. And before that, I would like to know why a mouse has to go underwater. "Sea mouse" means something else. A worm. I found it! Everyone, thank you! Next up is Dimension tripper! It was nice of her to invite us to the concert, but why did Vert herself not show up? What is that about? I am sure she has her reasons. So? Which one is Vert's room? Oh, this one is unlocked. What... happened here? It looks like the room was broken into. It is more like it has not been cleaned. Oh, this game can only be purchased by those over eighteen. Hey, stop that. We have little kids here. What are the rear guard doing? I will back them up. Go ahead without me. Aw. Oh, here she is. That was fast. You could have said something. What are you doing, Vert? Wait, not there. She is clearly playing a net game. Four Goddesses Online? Hey! Sorry you could not make it! Oh my. Welcome everyone. Sorry, I am a bit tied up right now. Hey, why did you stand us up to play some game? I thought to play for just an hour before leaving, but then a castle siege started... I could not just leave like that. After the concert, I thought you were going to host a house party for us. It will not be long before we take the castle, so after that... I never knew she was like this. Well, hobbies vary from person to person. What a hopeless goddess. She might be worse than me. Not true. Not true. Nep? They are in perfect sync. What should we do? It looks like we will be waiting a bit longer. True... All right. Everyone help set up for the party! What? Aw, why do we have to? Stop complaining. We came all the way to Leanbox, and are not leaving without a proper party. First off: Nepgear, IF, and Compa, you three go buy food. O-Okay! Everyone else can clean this room. Alright, begin at once. Here we go again. She becomes so bossy sometimes. Like a weird switch flips in her brain. Be quiet! Get to work! Leanbox Live Gear-chan and Ai-chan are not here yet it seems. Ugh, if I do not hurry, the old hag will get upset at me. That hurt. Wh-What? Is it that amusing to see a mouse trip and fall? You seem all right, I am so glad. You have a little bruise though. Here. I will put this on for you okay? There, all better. Be careful okay, Mouse-san? I-I will. I will take my leave, then. W-Wait. What is it? Um... could I have your name, please? Compa. C-Compa-chan... Such a sweet name. Gear-chan? Do not touch that! Gear-chan, what is it? I do not know. My strength just left me all of a sudden. Anemia? But I have never heard of an anemic goddess before. That was close. I cannot believe I ran into a goddesses' little sister. That aside, Compa-chan is an angel. A complete angel. Everyone, I am sorry to have kept you waiting. Welcome to my house party. Actually Vert, you did almost nothing. Just let it go. You are wasting your breath. I heard you became dizzy earlier? Yes, but I am all right now. Come now, everyone. Let us eat, drink and have fun. I even prepared a great game for today! Oh. What is it? What is it? Showing it would be easier than explaining. Neptune and Noire, could you step back a bit, please? Okay! Huh? Why? Give us a splendid fight. Amazing. Oh no. Nep-Nep is... Nep? I have turned into a Slime. I-Is this supposed to be me? This special camera captures your movements and holoprojects them. Amazing technology, right? So, I just fight Norie in this form, right? Hey, you Noire-Slime. I will Nep-Nep you! Wh-What is a Noire-Slime? Yay! I scored points! Now I am mad! You better prepare yourself, Nep-Slime! Yay! Upside-down Noire-Slime! By the way, there is also a simulation mode for realistic combat, which you can use for combat training. Amazing. That sounds fun. I want to play too! Of course. Please enjoy yourselves. You are late! Do you intend to ruin our entire plan? I came here as fast as I could, you know. It is your fault for making such a tight schedule, old hag. How many times must I tell you to not call your master that? W-Well whatever. I do not have time to waste getting angry at some dumb rat. Hand over you-know-what already. Understood. Now we have four. Tonight, this world's game rules, will turn upside down. I will not let you! What is it? We are in the middle of a party. Vert-sama, actually... Nep? We are done already? What is wrong, Vert? Well, there is a waste disposal plant in the Zune district. A large amount of monsters have appeared there. The Zune district... It is a small island, right? Apparently it only connects to the mainland at low tide. Are those monsters a big deal? Monsters show up everyone. That area is under state supervision, so this should not be happening. But it seems to have really happened. I will be going there now. I will come too! But, this my country's problem so... Then fate must have brought us here today, you know? Let us help! Is this your "We are all friends because we signed a treaty" thing again? Pretty much! I will help too. This is a good chance to repay you for helping with the kidnapping case. Okay, then. The three of us– I-I am coming too! Who knows how long you three would keep us waiting otherwise. Everyone... Very well. We can go as a party of four. Um. I will come too. S-So will I. Me too. Me too. You cannot come with. This is not a game. What? Uni, you stay behind too of course. You cannot transform yet after all. Nepgear! Leave this to your Onee-chan. I have to show off sometimes right? Okay. And with that... Transform! All right everyone, here we go. I am impressed you were able to collect so many small-fry monsters. I had to. Otherwise, I would not have lured all of the goddesses. Hurry and get here. Nepgear-chan, are you okay? Huh? I am fine, but I am kind of worried about Onee-chan. Nepgear-chan, is your Onee-chan not that strong? No, it is not like that. She is really strong when she gets serious. I am so weak that she always protects me. So... I do not know why but I have a bad feeling about tonight. A bad feeling? I see. Understood. Thank you Otome-chan. Seems like I was right. Did you figure something out? At the shopping mall was a mouse I had seen somewhere before. I asked a friend at an intelligence bureau to look into it. Unsurprisingly, he is on every country's blacklist. He is considered a suspicious person– Or rather, a suspicious mouse. What? That Mouse-san is a bad guy? That makes me sad. That is not all. We discovered that he took a boat to the Zune District a few hours ago. Wait that means... I do not have proof but monsters appearing at the waste processing plant was not a coincidence. There is still time to make it by low tide. I am going to go check things out. Take me. Take me with you. What? Of course not. Nepgear, I cannot put you in danger. But I am really worried. Please IF-san! We can see it now. Ugh, look at them swarming it. There are a lot of them but they look easy enough to handle. But it would be big trouble if they managed to make it to the city. We should hurry and– So, these large characters are the main problem? They are worthy enemies at least. We can each take one down. Time to race! I am not letting you one-up me! You three, wait! Battle theory says to stay together and take them down one at a time. More like cowards' theory. Honestly, They always get so headstrong when they transform. Well, I am no exception. Listen, Nepgear. Whatever happens, do not take any risks. We will retreat the moment we sense any danger. Okay. Thank you, IF-san. Lace Ribbon Dance That makes me first. Tanzerin Trombe Damn, I am second? Looks like those two are not done yet. Rainy Ratnapura Cross Combination I suppose those two are tied? That also means they both finished last. I was a tiny bit faster. If you say so. Last place is fine– Noire! Blanc! Wh-What is this? Do not fuck with me! These make my skin crawl. I should just... Looks like it is about time. Is she the one behind this? Goddesses, fall into my sanctuary! Th-This light... I am losing strength. How? It is that stone. If we destroy it...! Anything that depends on Share Energy as a power source cannot get close to that stone. Be it a weapon or even a goddess. What is that supposed to mean? That stone is called an Anti-Crystal. Your links with Share Crystals can be severed with that stone thus, stripping your powers. Anti-Crystal? Oh, these are some great pictures. They will create commotion around the world. Jeez! You are not going to get away with this! I will knock you flat in no time! Do not be so sure. Goddesses inside an Anti-Crystal field will continue to lose their strength and energy. Which means your chances are dropping by the second. It is quiet here. Maybe they defeated the monsters already? They are still here! Where are Nep-ko and the rest? IF-san, look at that! Onee-chan... NepStation NepStation Nep Station! Today, we are coming to you straight from the studio. Here is today's special guest. I am 5pb. Please buy a copy of my new single, Dimension tripper! This is not stealth marketing but blatant old-fashioned marketing. My power... Goddesses inside an Anti-Crystal field will continue to lose their strength and energy. Who are you? My name is Magiquone. I will be the one to bring joyous tidings of chaos to this world ruled by you four. And I am Warechu. The number three mascot in mouse society. Mouse... Do not steal my big scene! Listen to yourself. The Lastation cave and Leanbox's seafloor had Anti-Crystal deposits, that I gathered. Hmph! My discovery that Planeptune's forest had the first crystal started everything. Lowee's church had one and the unpleasant task of stealing it was mine right? Lowee's church? Blanc, did you know about that stone... Yes I did. I kept it secure under tight surveillance, but after the kidnapping, it went missing. If you would just told us about it... It could not be helped. How could I have known there were so many of them? The caves? Do not tell me... Noire, what is it? Nep? My transformation... I believe I told you. As long as you stay in that field, you will continue to lose your strength and energy. How could this be? Onee-chan... Onee-chan! Nepgear? Nepgear, get in. But Onee-chan is... Nepgear! Right now we need to run! They will get away. It matters not. Who cares about a goddess' little sister who cannot transform? What is this all about, IF-san? I am not exactly sure, but they mentioned something about "Anti-Crystals." That is probably what is sealing Nep-ko and the others' powers. "Anti-Crystals"? Histoire-sama, could you research them for us? Certainly, but it will take me three days. It would help to know as soon as possible, please. I will see what I can do. Anyway, Nepgear-san should return to Planeptune. Uni-san and the others should go home as well. Goodbye. Well, you heard her– Wait! You know I cannot agree to go home just like that! Explanation this properly! Usually, Onee-chan takes the baddies down in one punch. Is Onee-chan going to die? I-I am sure she will be fine. Goddesses do not get defeated that easily– But! I heard something about sealing their powers earlier. Sorry. Gear-chan, it is not your fault. No. That stone I picked up back when we went shopping must have been an Anti-Crystal. Let's not do this. Doing a what-if will not help us. Why? Why back then... If only I had thought more about why I felt dizzy. I could have told Onee-chan and the others... Nepgear you idiot! Onee-chan is... My Onee-chan is really strong, but because of you, she is... Nepgear, you should have been captured instead. Aww, come on. I am so bored! I want to play some games! Neptune, what is wrong with you? We are captives you know. But... I wish I could use Four Goddesses Online's chat system, at least... All guild members were supposed to meet right now... Vert, you too... It is good to see net gamers are still the same as ever. Okay! I am going to try and make some demands. Hey, one moment! Come on, I know you are there! Mother Kong! Who are you calling "Mother Kong"? Uh... was it Magic the Hard? "Magi" was the only right part. Okay then, Magimon? Give us something to pass the time with. I am dying of boredom! Either way, your lives are headed toward their end. Huh? She did not object to that one. Can I just call her Magimon from now on? Do not ask me. Hey! Are you listening to me? Someone is sentencing you to death here, you know! Huh? What was that? Take a look beneath you. Nep? What is this? It is creepy. Is another Anti-Crystal effect? Soon, your torment will begin and eventually, you will die. Enjoy what little time you have left. Nepgear-chan. Come on. I know. Uni-chan? Let's all be friends again. I went too far. Sorry. It's fine. I know.... I know...that is not your fault. I know! It's okay, I know how you feel. Onee-chan was so strong that I thought no one was stronger. As long as my Onee-chan was around everything would be fine. I am the same. Without my Onee-chan, I cannot do anything either. Even now, I have no idea what to do– It is simple! We just need to rescue them! Me too. I want to save Onee-chan. But we cannot transform... Then we just need to learn that! We can learn how. Do you really think we can? Onee-chan said something about how... I cannot transform because I put a limiter on my heart. A limiter on your heart...? Something like our fears are holding us back. I am scared of monsters. Yes, me too. Then we can all train until we are not scared of monsters! That might be it. Yes. Uni-sama? Rom-sama? Ram-sama? Your ride is here– Owwie. This really hurts. Compa, are you okay? I am fine. This is training. Huh? This is Vert-sama's game, right? We figured we would do some combat training. Remember? She told us about the combat simulation mode, right? I told them I would play the enemy. If this can help Gear-chan and the rest transform, I will be happy too! Transform? We decided to go save everyone's Onee-chan together. That is why we want to get stronger. Wait a moment, Nepgear. They are someone who captured Nep-ko and the others. Even so, we still have to do this. We inherited the goddesses' power too. I had a feeling this would happen. But Compa, you cannot be the enemy. I will do it. Ai-chan. It is fine. Well then, we can start. Ga-thunk! Ga-thunk! Ga-thunk! I have found you! Huh? Hey! Have you finished uploading the pictures yet? Never did I imagine I would have to use an analog line. And the modem we found in the trash was a 56k one. I am about dying here. You knew full well there was no cellphone reception in this area. Mistakes made in the field are an employer's responsibility. Anyway, just hurry up. Tell that to the modem. Oh? Only the little sisters are home I see. So all four goddesses are not around? I knew something happened! Uh... If I am not mistaken, you are Abnes-san? Look, we are busy. Do not interrupt! Who is she? Remember back at Lowee, Nep-ko became furious at a little girl? Abnes-san... We do not have time right now– Shut up! A half-developed former little girl is a girl I do not care about. With the goddesses gone, this is my chance to turn Rom-chan and Ram-chan back into normal little girls. What a nice idea, if I say so myself! Or should I say, "a flash of inspiration?" Come now, my cute little girls. Let us hold hands and play. Um, instead of holding hands, we want to play that instead. That? Please. Well, okay. S-Say, little girls, are you sure this is what you want to play? How about we play something more girly? Everyone attack! Take that. Hold on a second. Ai-chan, there is a mode where computer characters can be fought. Wait. All right, let's do this! I knew it. I am sorry. That mode is usually around. Should we tell them about it? I am sorry. Well... maybe later? They look like they are having fun. No! Never give up! On little girls! This is the end! Amazing! Everyone defeated that Ancient Dragon together. Ow. That hurts, you crazy nurse. I am sorry. We defeated a lot of monsters, but we have not managed to transform. Yes. But if we defeat many more... Apparently, we do not have time for that. News of the four goddesses' capture will soon spread worldwide. The goddesses were captured? There is a chance for the little girls– Rest quietly please. If the public sees their goddesses like this, national Shares might start declining rapidly. And if that happens... ...the Share Crystals will provide us with less power. Then, before that happens, we need to save everyone's Onee-chan quickly. Most definitely. The natatorium has accumulated substantially. I wonder what will happen if swallowed by it? I should have researched counter-measures against the stone. But I only kept it away from me... Come on everyone, cheer up! We are still fine right now, and there is still hope left. I do not usually mind your optimism, but it is very annoying at times like these. You are in denial. But it is better than deciding there is no hope. False hope never did anyone any good either. I do not think it is false hope. Huh? Nep? Have you forgotten about your little sisters? Uni? She has never fought without me before. Rom and Ram are at an age where I have to protect them, too. Nepgear seems level-headed, but she is quite spoiled. I think it would be too much for her. Perhaps... that is just your egos speaking? Of course, they are extremely lovely girls. I would like for them to always stay this way too. But those thoughts might be preventing them from transforming and letting them stay as "precious little sisters." Do you not feel that way? They are here. As expected, the goddess' little sister came back with friends. Hmph. What can they do? They probably cannot even reach this place. Isn't that right? Gear-chan and the others still cannot transform yet... Even if the goddesses fail, if their little sisters fight, the people will understand. That way, the damage done to the Shares will be minimized. You are right, but... Also, I want to believe in them too. Nepgear and the others can do it. Ai-chan... Everyone ready? You better prepare yourselves! Ram-chan, I will protect you. Okay. And I will take care of the rest! Hit! This will hurt! You are in my way! Nepgear! Ram-chan! Rom-chan! Rom! Ram! Regroup! Uni-chan... Behind you! I will not lose! Stay away! Stay away from me! What have I done? I was wrong. We are not ready to fight yet. Ai-chan, at this rate everyone will– Because of me everyone is done for. I know. I cannot do anything. Help me, Onee-chan! I am relying on Onee-chan again. But I... without Onee-chan I just... Onee-chan said something about how I cannot transform because I put a limiter on my heart. Limiter... Something like our fears are holding us back. What am I afraid of? Is it losing Onee-chan? Or not being staying as Onee-chan's little sister? No, that is not it. I am scared of becoming stronger than Onee-chan! Ai-chan! Look at Gear-chan! I wanted to keep always looking up to Onee-chan, but if this is what it takes to bring Onee-chan back... I will become stronger than anyone else! Nepgear! Nepgear-chan! Amazing! I cannot back down here! So... I have to fight! Apparently, we do not have time for that. Huh? No! This is not it! No count! It does not count! It is just, Compa sort of happened to say I could stay over, and I would not have taken this except I woke up at midnight and– Mirage Dance Take that! The small-fry monsters were all defeated, is that right? They are surprisingly tough. Well no matter. I was just starting to feel bored. I realized something. I wanted Onee-chan to always protect me. That is why I was okay with being weak. That is what I was thinking. But when I wanted to change and become stronger– You managed to transform? That does not help me. I have never thought it was okay to be weak. Y-Yes, I suppose... Okay. We are nearly there. Onee-chan! Nepgear! Onee-chan! Onee-chan! Rom... Ram... Uni... Nepgear, you learned to transform. Yes. I will save you right away. I would not be so sure. Good job making it this far little sisters. My name is Magiquone. I will be the one to bring joyous tidings of chaos to this world ruled by four– Compa-chan! How I have missed you! Huh? Oh, hi. Hey! Do not interrupt me! Why would you do this? What are you after? I will tell you. What I seek is a new system that does not need goddesses, a world where anyone can become a ruler. That means, you just want to rule the world yourself! If someone stronger than me comes along, they will take over. That is how a "fair world" works. Am I wrong? Stop trying to sugar-coat up your own ambitions. You are just envious of the goddesses' powers right? There may have been a time when I was. But not any longer. Because... I have the power of a goddess myself now! She transformed? But she is not a goddess! Cross Combination No way! That is my ultimate skill. How can you use that move? I have the ability to copy others. And now I have even made the goddesses' techniques my own! No way! That is impossible! I made it possible! Tanzerin Trombe Stop it! Do not be mean to Nepgear! You brats should go suck on a pacifier or something. I... hate her. Yes, I hate her a lot! We will get her... The two of us together! Rom... Ram... I will never forgive you. Prepare yourself! Huh? Two brats transforming is hardly a threat. Ice Coffin We did it! Lace Ribbon Dance Rom-chan! Ram-chan! Now it is my turn. I am the only one who can not transform. And Onee-chan is watching me... Why do I keep worrying about Onee-chan? Right now I... Hit! Hit! Hit! Uni... All right! This is right, Uni. Think only about the target. I see it. EX Multi Blaster I have no hesitation. Only resolve! Uni-chan, you look so cool! H-Huh? I transformed... You did it, Uni-chan! Amazing! W-Well, of course I did. The main character always arrives last. Yes. You are right. Uni. Everyone is so wonderful. What is happening? Wh-What is this? Well, right according to plan, I guess? Compa, I have a favor to ask. Could you start talking to that mouse? What should I say? Let's see... Something like, uh... Okay then, it is time for me to leave. U-Um... Mouse-san. Excuse me, would you like to have a nice long chat with me? Over there? Huh? TL: oppa "breast" talk vs ippai "full" talk Breast? A breast talk, right? Yes. C-C-Compa-chan! I am freezing. I have already stopped feeling anything. What? Yes, I am starting to go numb. We need to do something, before they cover our entire bodies. Nep-ko! Ai-chan! Histoire-sama sent me with a message. O-Okay. Everyone, I have bad news. Anti-Crystals sever the link between you and your Share Crystals, but that is not all. It also has the ability to convert Share Energy into something called "Anti-Energy." Concentrated Anti-Energy, it is said, can take goddesses' lives. So what can we do? As of now, we do not know how to counter it. If I had three days– Vert! N-Neptune... No! Noire! Huh? Onee-chan? Let me help too! Compa-chan... I regret to inform you that will not work. What is that? I-I do not know. Anti-Energy kills goddesses like this! Rainy Ratnapura No... Nep... tune... Noire... O-Onee-chan? No! Where... am I? Am I... dead? No, I am not. But... why? Share Energy should not be able to reach me in here. So warm. I see. So that is how it is. We are... Your precious big sisters are no more! No matter what you do it is too late. But do not let it get you down. You will be joining them soon enough. In the dark abyss of despair, that is. Onee-chan is... Onee-chan and the others...! Onee-chan... What? Onee-chan is still fighting. And we... ...certainly will... ...never lose! We will defeat you, by putting our bodies, souls and everything on the line! What is this? The Share Energy is resonating? There is so much... and it is sparkling. My Anti-Energy... My miracle is being negated. You are not getting away! Begone! Onee-chan? Where are you? Hey... Onee-chan... Right here, Nepgear. Onee-chan! I missed you! Thank goodness! Stop crying like babies. Sorry, I made you worry. Sorry Onee-chan I took so long. What are you apologizing for? Look at how you have grown. Thank you. Onee-chan. Onee-chan! You see... I... I... You did well, Nepgear. From now on, I will always be with you. Onee-chan! Vert-san. Welcome back. Thank you. Honestly. You are only getting her for today, okay, Vert? Good thing I prepared for this and dug an escape tunnel. You should be grateful I am such a smart mouse! Why are you helping me? You have no obligation to. Even us villains feel friendship, you know. Although I have to say, old hag, you sure are heavy. You could trim those curves, you know. Hmph. My naked body is stunning, I'll have you know– That I did not need to know! The Share Crystal is shining like crazy! It really is. It looks like how it was before. I was worried too, but we did not lose many Shares after all. Really? It must be that I am a wonderful person. Actually, I think it is more that people had low expectations of you to begin with. Either way, we can be happy there was not a Share crash. However, we are still facing a gradual downward trend. Well, we can forget about that for now. That is not happening! You need to do some work, starting today. What? I would rather still be in a tentacle trap. So... What about the other nations' shares? Oh, they did go down a bit, after all. But Vert-sama launched that virtual reality interface for the general public. She regained a lot of popularity that way. And at Lowee, Blanc-sama's "Blanc Manju" is a extremely popular. Noire-sama and Uni-sama went monster hunting so much they recovered more Shares than they had lost. With that... things are more or less back to normal. Delicious! Nep-ko does not change at all, does she? Hm? I thought you would get a bit more serious after that experience, but suddenly we are picnicking? You have it backwards. Backwards! It is precisely because of what happened that we need to make each day into everyday! I do not understand you at all. Wh-Who is this girl? Wh-Who knows? Compa! IF! Huh? Who are you? I have no hesitation. Only resolve! Uni-chan! Your breasts. Now they are as small as ours, Uni-chan! We are flat friends! Being in that category does not make me happy. I can finally begin! Whoa. That was close. I barely made it. Pea is bored! Play with me! Neptuna! How many times do I have to tell you, Pea-ko? My name is not "Nep-tuna." It is Nep-tune. Neptuna! Neptuna! Hey. Do not just pull the plug like that. Huh? Neptuna, play with me! Nep-Nep gets along so well with her. More like she is completely at the kid's mercy. Histoire-sama, have you found her guardians yet? No, and she is been here for three weeks. Do we have any ideas at all? I do not know. Why did she recognize Compa and myself? Maybe we are lucky to have found out even her name. Yes. Her pantsu said "Peashy" on them so we know her name. I am thankful for that. I finally have you! Pea Punch How is it, Nepgear-chan? They are nice and soft, right? Yes, Vert-san. It would be all right to call me Onee-chan if you would like. But my Onee-chan is– Oh maybe it would be okay if Vert-san was my Onee-chan too. Of course. So... I see the situation has become difficult here too. The Lily rank has risen dramatically. Hey Vert! What are you doing to my little sister? Onee-chan! What is the harm in deepening our friendship every now and then? It more like every day! Nepgear is my little sister, you know? You sound like a sister-in-law already. Let's keep slowly nurturing our bonds. Okay Nepgear-chan? I actually came here to offer you an invitation. What? You want me too? Are you going for the sisters route? Nep! It is not that. Blanc already contacted you, correct? Has she? What do you think? This a long-eared bandicoot named Clutter. He is my new pet. So cute! Let me hug him! Well? What did you want to talk about? To put it simply, network security. Ah! You want to use my unbreakable security as a model for yours, right? Uh... Well, I do not blame you. I did spare no expense in hiring the best staff to create an uncrackable firewall. Does it also protect the satellite system you put into operation recently? Yes, of course. I could let you copy it, but it will cost you. Signs a Lastation server hacked that satellite have been found. What? Like I said, a Lastation– Impossible. A security breach is as likely as being hit by someone falling from the sky. Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Move! Phew, I am safe... Honestly. How could you be careless enough to fall from the sky and hit someone? Sorry. Sorry. Pea-ko started making a fuss as we were flying over here, and I let go of my transformation by mistake. Show some self-control. We are sorry. Oh, yes. Pea-ko, introduce yourself. I am P! Neptune, I never knew you had a child this old. Yes. She was the first one I birthed, and she is very special to me. That is not it! We are taking care of this lost child at our church. I figured as much. Whoa. Blanc actually set up a joke! Rom, Ram. Be friends with her. Okay! Want to play with us? Okay. Let's play! Anyway, about our discussion earlier... We can talk somewhere else. Uni. I am leaving you in charge here for a while. Okay. Um, Nepgear... I would like your advice on something. Noire-san has been acting strangely? Recently, she locks herself in her office every night doing something. Are you sure it is not just work? If it were, she would not lock the door. And sometimes I hear this weird laughter... I am worried. So essentially, you want to know what Noire-san is doing in there on her own? That is essentially it, yes. Then I have just the thing! I happened to bring this with me. What is it? A small and discreet wireless video transmitter. In other words, a hidden camera. This tiny little thing can compress and transmit HD video in real time! Isn't it great? I have wanted to set it up for quite some time! U-Uh... Can I? I can, right? What is so funny? It is just, Noire, you were always bragging about it. "Lastation's security is the best in the world." And now you have a security breach? How hilarious! There is no point complaining over the past. It is important to keep it from happen again. That, and... Catching the the one responsible, right? Whoa, Noire is in serious mode. Actually, I brought in a specialist to help us out. Come in please. Leanbox's pride, the ultra-genius programmer: Ziege-chan. Ziege-chan? Who was that? An original character! Hello. I am Ziege. Pleased to make your acquaintance, biru. B-Biru? Her character still makes terrible puns! This character will be unpopular! There is no need to worry. This is the only scene with my character. Would you be able to track down the criminal? Leave it to me. Maybe here? Or maybe over here would give us a better angle? Nepgear seems to be having fun. No, here is definitely best. She will tag me! She is it! She is it! Get back here! All done! Look, it is working! The picture is so clear... It looks nice right? It uses NPEG-4, a cutting-edge codec, to transmit images without losing that crisp HD feel. H-Huh? What is wrong? I am starting to feel like we are doing something really bad. Maybe we should take it down. Yes, you are right. Do not go that way! Onee-chan will get mad! What is going on? This is interference... Wait... Interference means there are other hidden cameras in that room. Wh-What? It should be around here somewhere... I am so mad! Any idiot spying on Onee-chan will get a beating from me! That felt somewhat directed at me... Well? Which building is it, Nepgear? O-Okay. Well, this reverse tracing device only shows the approximate location. Well then, I will go through them one by one. Still, I am surprised you had that thing with you. Was it coincidence? Actually, I always carry this. Mobile chargers and signal tracers are must-haves for any girl, right? Girls in what universe? Nepgear! I am hungry! Oh, you are? What should we do? I am hungry! Hungry! Hungry! Peashy is such a baby. I am a big girl now so I can handle being hungry. Me too. I am a big girl. I am big too. Then, can you be patient? I will. Pat, pat. Ram-chan and Rom-chan are amazing. When someone younger shows up, they suddenly act mature. Huh? Onee-chan is over there. Why? Say, Noire, is it necessary to do this ourselves? We could have left it to security right? That would be boring. Whoever tried to make a fool out of me, will regret it when I crush them. Today, Noire is quite vehement. I do not dislike that. That is the place, right? Ziege-chan found this hideout, right? All right! Time find the culprit! Be quiet! They will run if they see us! Should you really be the one to say that? They went in here, right? Y-Yes. Maybe Onee-chan is going after the voyeur too? Clutter! He ran away! Peashy-chan! Do not move! Put your hands in the air and turn around slowly. You did the hacking, correct? Answer me right now! Oh, do not talk like we are strangers. Call me Anonydeath-chan. Nep? A drag queen? Who looks like that? Well, how rude. My heart is more maidenly than any other. He really is a drag queen. And I imagine he has a bit of an acerbic wit, as well. I do. I thought you were all boobs and no brains but I see I was wrong. I do not care about your gender. Do you admit your crimes or do you not? What? As I thought, Noire-chan, you are really cuter in person. Significantly more. You cannot distract me by saying things like that! Oh, no. I am serious. Sorry for taking all of these pictures! Noire here! Noire there! They are all Noire! Peashy? Where are you? Clutter! Where could they have gone? Peashy-chan! Noire-chan, I am a huge fan of yours. Noire-chan, I wanted to learn everything –an impulsive crime! I do not care about these photos. I am talking about the hacking– Oh, you do not care? What about these? Noire is sewing. I never would have expected that. That is right! I am surprisingly the family type. I might have seen that outfit before... You are imagining it. I am 100% sure about it. Hey! I told you I am not here about that! Oh? If it is not about those, what about these? Whoa. What are these? These are clearly cosplay photos. So that was a Four Goddesses Online cosplay costume. Do not look! The way you panic is so cute! Exclusive! Why you... fine then. For now, I will throw you in a jail cell for the voyeur photos! Oh my. If I ever leave here, all these photos will be automatically published. Are you okay with that? Huh? At first, I wanted them all to myself, but covering the world with Noire-chan sounds quite fun as well, right? This is a tough decision to make. If these pictures were leaked... ...I would be too embarrassed to show my face in public. I think it would be okay. Noire looks super cute in these. You do not seem to mean that. Fine. Go ahead! But you will pay for it... with your life! This is how it has to be. Dammit! They are coming! This was fun, Noire-chan. Oh, I was lying about leaking the pictures, so do not worry. Hold it right there! I was able to meet Noire-chan in person for the mere loss of one hideout. Dreams come true! Huh? Wh-What? No, no, no! Go away! Hey! Clutter! Look, it is Peashy and Cluttter! D-Do not do that Peashy-chan! Sorry. Sorry. Honestly, what are you teaching this child? "Peashy"? Is your name Peashy? Yes! It am Pea! Onee-chan? So you are the voyeur! Oops! Printing out my favorites has become my downfall! I will make you pay! Drag queen, you are not getting away! What? Uni? Onee-chan? Okay, okay. I give up. He never did admit to the hacking. Well, we captured him, so it is all right. Noire seems to have larger concerns now. Did you see? Did you see these photos? U-Um, w-we– Yes! We saw all of them! What is "cosplay"? Wait, what are all of you even doing here? I cannot take this anymore! Listen. You are to forget everything you saw today. Understood? And Uni, you should know better than to come to a place like this. Pea-ko. Ta-dah! Would you like some? I sneaked it here in my pocket. Yes! I want some! Oh, but we each get half, okay? Okay. Neptuna will eat it too! Hello. It is me. I found you-know-who. After going through the trouble of hacking the satellite, I found her another way. What? Hmm, yes... Say, Uni... Being a cosplayer is not something you approve of, right? Uni, if you do not like it, I can quit. No, do not quit. You can do that only because you are not too busy with work, right? Yes. Lately, I have had more free time. I thought, just maybe, that is because I have become a little more useful. I wonder about that. More than a little, I depend on you a lot! Onee-chan. Move, move. Move! What was that noise? Nep-pupu! Ow, that hurt! Wh-Who are you? Huh? Oh, me? I am Pururut. Planeptune's goddess. What? Impossible! A security breach is as likely as being hit by someone falling from the sky. Move! What? I was not standing in the wrong place! I am Pururut. Nice to meet you. To Planeptune's new goddess, a toast to Pururut. Hold it right there! Compa, that makes it sound like Pururut took my place as goddess. Huh? But Puru-chan is Planeptune's goddess too. She did say Planeptune, but her Planeptune is a different one. please remember that. So... It seems Pururut-san came from another dimension. Well, it is difficult to know how to react to a declaration of another dimension. Can you transform too? I can. But everyone tells me to avoid transforming unless I really have to. Why is that? Hmm... I wonder why... Hey wait, Pea-ko! I want meat! Neptuna, you can have this! Get it away from me! I hate eggplants! Nep-ko, how about trying them occasionally? They came out quite well today. I do not want them at all. Just the smell drains my strength. But they are delicious. You are missing out on one-third of life. Say what you will! I hate them! Eggplants are really healthy, you know. Histy, you are eating eggplants too? Neptune-san! What example does a goddess set for her citizens if she is picky about food? Histoire-sama! Are you all right? A curse? It is the curse of the eggplants! I... do not... know.... It is not! Eggplants are not food after all! Please excuse me. That was my first communication from another dimension, so locating the response directives in the manual exacted some time. Not at all. I too express my regrets for calling you so unexpectedly. Thank you for taking care of Pururut-san. Your stature is quite modest, I observe. Ah! Do not discount me for my bijou proportions. Pururut-san was dispatched to your dimension by me, I would have you know. I see. However, that was certainly surprising. I never dreamed other dimensions existed, or that they were easy to traverse between. It is not easy and quite difficult actually. Oh, my apologies. Well, the manual does cover it in small lettering. It is a three day read. Is that so? I will have a look through mine. Dessert time! Yay! Hey, Pea-ko! Pea-ko wants this one! That one is mine! It says "Nep's" on the label! Peashy-chan, the others are identical. No! I want Nep-Nep's pudding! Why? It says "Nep's" on it, so it is clearly mine. I said no! What was that? Want to go at it? Wait, you are being immature. You should not fight, Nep-chan. In that case, why did you send Pururut-san to this dimension? To tell the truth, we detected a large energy transfer from our dimension to yours. Perhaps something or someone traveled there. I see. Whatever it is holds so much energy that without it our world might not be able to maintain structural integrity. I see. That is why Pururut-san and I need to find that large something and bring it back here. I see. So, how would one search for this "large something"? Pea Punch I spent three days investigating and still could not find out. What? Then... All we can do is quickly respond to any changes that happen in your world. If a major upheaval transpires, we should notice it nearby. I understand. I will let everyone here know. So there you have it. If you notice anything peculiar, please inform me immediately. You have come? I will crush you! Pokey, pokey. Pea-ko will play with this! Give that back! Please! Excuse me, are you listening? Oh, sorry, Histy-san. I am listening– W-Wait! If anything peculiar happens, right? I have not noticed anything yet. You have not even gone outside to check. Histoire-sama, I will go on patrol. Thank you as always. I am counting on you. All right then, see you later. Compa, you have work now, right? Would you like a motorcycle ride? Yes, thank you. All done! What? Pururut, is that– It is Neptuna! That is right. How cute. It really is. This moe version has everything that makes me cute. I like making dolls of my friends. Me too! Make me too! Then, next is Peachy-chan's. And after that is Gear-chan. Yay! Isn't that nice? Then, let me begin. Maybe, we will get to see a real artist at work? Yes, maybe she will make it without a pattern outline. H-Huh? she is asleep? Well, we were able to see a piece of work, I guess. There is a lot of construction work today. Sorry we are running late. It is fine. Ai-chan, I am with you, so I am having fun. R-Really? What? Compa, hold your breath! Unyuu~ You fell right into my trap. Do not tell you are– Onee-chan! Onee-chan, wake up! I cannot eat more... Stop having clichéd dreams. Onee-chan, wake up. What is it, Nepgear? What is this? That is so mean. An unknown address sent it to me, and it had a map attached. We have to save her! Yes, but who would do this? My time for revenge has arrived. This will not do you any good, Magiquone! Nep-ko and Nepgear will just defeat you again! Things will be different this time! I have a secret plan! And it is... these eggplants! What? I discovered eggplants are a goddess's weakness. In this eggplant farm, I will show them hell! You will never win no matter what you try, wrinkly old hag! Shut up, little girl! Swallow it all down. Every last part of it. I would not want you to miss out on one-third of life. What are you doing, you wrinkly witch? Shut up! Eggplant skin has many polyphenols, did you know? Stop it! There you are, goddess. Today is the day I send you under! If you want a fight, we will give it to you. In any case, release Ai-chan– Onee-chan, are you okay? Sorry. I just smell eggplants– So you have finally noticed? I purchased this entire farm to take advantage of your weakness. This eggplant field will be your grave! Do not be ridiculous. While, I may hate eggplants, of course they will not kill me! We will see about that. Come forth, my purple servants! What are those? Huh? Where am I? A place we can be alone together. Mouse-san? Compa-chan, I wanted to see you so much, I crawled back from the depths of Hell. Huh? From where in Hell? This day is the day I will give you, Compa-chan, every inch of my heart. Eggplants scary! Eggplants stop! I do not like this. Onee-chan! Pururut-san! Out of my way! Nep-ko, get yourself together! The old hag created those monsters with magic. You can defeat them! You still have not learned I see. While I am here, I will keep on feeding you eggplants! IF-san! Nepgear! Ugh, A splash of eggplant stink... Well? Eggplants are not too bad raw, right? I think you can take more. Here, eat it and keep eating it! Nep? I am getting... slightly angry. Why... ...for IF-chan... Nep? ...would you do so much... ...to bully her like that? S-she is my hostage so I can do whatever I want! So things are like that... In that case... Maybe I should do whatever I want, too. Huh? Pururut? Even Onee-chan's personality change is not that drastic. You bastard. Who are you? Me? I am Iris Heart. But do not worry about remembering it. Because I will carve it directly onto your body! Do not tell me, you are the flash with no substance type. Do you have anything more to show for your years? If so, then show me! That looks fun. O-Okay... we can leave her to Pururut. Why not you try opposing me for a change? We need to work to. We can by finishing the rest quickly. Nepgear-gear, free Ai-chan please! I will handle these eggplants. Okay. I figured something out. Nothing seems worth it without loved ones by your side. So... Co... Co... Compa-chan! M-Mouse-san? Take that! I thought I could have some more fun with you, but a loser is just a loser. I let my guard down, is all! If I had known about you beforehand... Losers are always so full of excuses. Blah, blah, blah, blah... It hurts to listen to. I doubt I will climax, no matter how much I play with you. Maybe I will just finish you off. Pururut, wait. That is enough– Did you really think I would not have a trick up my sleeve? I have even more purple terror to teach you! Behold, my new powers! I have absorbed the eggplants into myself. Together, our combined power has increased! My name is Eggquone! Hm? You do not seem very impressed. That large, you no longer look like an eggplant to me anymore. You are just big purple lump. Wh-Wh-What? Right now, my anger is winning out. For what you did to Ai-chan and for bringing eggplants into battle, I will make you regret it. Nepgear, Pururut, ready? Yes, Onee-chan! I am always ready. Wha– This sure is eggplant on my face! You should have taken in a more balanced selection. Compa-chan. Let's have our kiss of destiny. Mouse-san. Have you stopped being a bad person? I do not like bad people. If I was not a bad person... Who are you? We were at the good part. Do not interrupt! You are just a mouse. The only thing you are good for is scurrying through dirty sewer pipes. To approach cute little Compa, you have some nerve. Do not tell me. Are you a new goddess? "Goddess"? You dirty, vulgar rodent. You need to call me... "Goddess-sama!" Wow. Mouse-san has such a soft body. It is stretching like rubber. Come on! Come on! What was that? "Chu" is incomprehensible! Come on! Come on! IF-san, are you okay now? Yes. I was not injured or anything. Still, Magiquone was a terrifying opponent, surely? Yes. Although there was someone even more terrifying out there. Oh? What do you mean, Nep-chan? Nothing! We should try to keep her transformations to a minimum. Dinner is ready! Dinner! Dinner! Dinner. Nepu! Mauve eggplants? Yes. Wh-Why are we having eggplants again after what just happened? Peashy-chan requested them. She really enjoyed them yesterday. Eggplants! Eggplants! Nep-Nep, I heard you overcame your disdain for eggplants. No, That was not "overcoming" it. I just went with the flow of battle. No. Not eggplants! I hate eggplants! Eggplants scary! I do not want to eat eggplants! IF-san, please calm down! Ai-chan has started disliking eggplants too? Well, I can understand how she feels. Ai-chan, my true friend. Eggplants are delicious. Are you really going to become an eggplant farmer? Have you given up on world dominaton? Yes, I have grown a little tired of it. I drained all my money on this operation. I have nowhere else to go. You are helping me? I have nothing better to do. This is so strange. For the first time ever, I feel alive. I am not doing this for free. On a faraway island lies a giant, mysterious machine. Huge, skin-colored, and sometimes pink. Is it a trap? Or perhaps... Next week on Choujigen Game Neptune: The Forbidden Paradise (Island) ...Where We Do and Have All Kinds of Things Done To Us and Maybe There'll Not Only Be Some Wardrobe Malfunctions But Also Some Kinda Licking Too Oh I, Neptune, Am Like, So Embarrassed! the prelude to a nightmare. Watch or I will delete your save data! Time to eat! Neptuna, no fair! That is mine! Give me Nep-Nep's pudding! Look, that makes no sense. If saying "Nep's" pudding then it is not Pea's, it is mine. Mine! Pu– Hey, Pea-ko! You should not cross that line! It is your fault! M-My fault? Pea-ko, you always go too far. Hmph! Pea-ko, I hate you. Neptuna you dummy! Dummy! It takes one to know one! Why are you fighting with such a small child? Huh? When did you get here? Around the time you dropped the pudding. You were mean to Peashy! Poor her. Act a little more mature. What? I am the bad guy here? Indeed. Yes, you are. Yes, yes. Well, okay. Maybe I went a little too far, but... That aside, what brings everyone here? Changing the topic, are we? Peashy-chan, there you are. Pururut... I looked everywhere for you. Here you go. I promised to make this, remember? It is a Peashy-doll. Yay! Pururut, I love you! Thank you. R-18 Island? Considering the name, could it be... Indeed. It is a forbidden island with only adults allowed in. Things like this and that happen around the clock, or so I hear. And we are going to that theme park right now. Could this week be... a fanservice episode? What? So we are not going there to have fun? No. Unfortunately not. We discovered R-18 Island had a massive artillery battery using our satellites yesterday. So we decided to investiage. Histoire also asked us to be on the lookout. Is someone trying to start a war? Hey, Nep-chan... I want to fly by myself. What? N-no! Please Pururut, just stay right there. Why? If she can transform, why not let her do it? Noire, if you had seen what I have, you would agree. Huh? No means no! Nep-chan is a meanie. Do not move! Honestly, what in the world are they doing? Why am I not allowed to go to R-18 Island? I refuse to accept this. We refuse. Refuse. What is wrong, Peashy-chan? If you are looking for something, I will help. Peashy. So here you are. Let's play video games. Are you looking for something? I am not! She is clearly looking for Nep-ko. She probably wants to apologize. Oh... She has a cute side after all. Nep-ko should have made up before leaving. Those two are like family now. These things happen in families. All right, now for R-18 Island's immigration check. I-Is this okay? Wearing a swimsuit while transformed feels slightly strange. It does not make a difference, however. This island has a strict dress code of swimsuits. Either that or all-nude. That is how it is. A radical dress code, I see. Blanc and Pururut are done changing too. Yahoo-hoi! Am I cute? Goodness me. Am I? Goodness me... Hey. Just then, you were looking at my chest! What? Th-That is not true. It is just... I might be wondering if they will recognize you two as adults. Do you have to say that to our faces! I'm sure it will be fine! Goddesses do not age normally after all. Well, we can take a crack at it. Begin the check, please. Welcome to R-18 Island. A question. Are you an adult? Of course. Cleared. Enjoy your stay at R-18 Island. Sadly, I am here on business. Come on, everyone. Right. Cleared. I am an adult. Are you really over eighteen years of age? Yes. Yes. Really? Wha–? Yes really! She does not believe me... You are actually a little girl, right? I am not! With that breast size? Let's go. Yay! Well, you certainly cracked it... Okay, but now that are on the island, where are we supposed to go? Good question. We should ask someone. Right away. Welcome! Call on me if you have any problems. I am Linda, an authorized guide. I give discounts. Are you– Hey, it is the kidnapper! Ack. The goddesses from then! So you are the one who snatched my sisters! W-Wait, please! I reformed, and now make an honest living. That better be true. If lying, you will pay. I am not lying! I am an upstanding citizen now. I see. So you are looking for an artillery battery set up here? Would you happen to know anything? Of course! Leave it to me. Oh. But, but... I would like to visit fun places too! Hold on. We are not here to play. But... Okay! I have just the place. This is R-18 Island's most beautiful spot... Wairisqué Beach! Whoa. Whoa! Wow... Dazzling! Wh...Wh...Wh... Why is everyone n-n-nu– Everyone is nude! My, how uninhibited! We do not need to be here! We are here to find the artill– Hey, what are all those shiny things? Oh, they are Mysterious Light Beams. They love lewd places! Why are those people not wearing swimsuits? L-Lewd places... That means... It is okay to do this! Onee-chan, you are so daring... Nepgear, try it! It is very fun! Huh? I will join you! Me too! Huh? What? This feels great! Nepgear! If everyone is doing it, so will I! Huh? Take this! No. Now you have done it. Take that. It is true! Birthday suits feel amazing. What is everyone doing? We need to get going. Acting innocent is of no avail! With expert use of Mysterious Light Beams... What? Oh my, how strange. Even wearing swimsuits, you look nude. What? What are you doing? Neptune you pervert! Being perverted is the heart's job! Now hurry and strip! It cannot be helped. Wait! Nep? Aww, they found out. I thought it was the perfect plan. I figured it was something like this. But, Neptune, I saw you throw off your swimsuit! That was just a mirage. No way! No! Tricking me is so mean! Sorry, Nepgear. I never thought you would actually strip... Let me retrieve your swimsuit. All done! Well? Blanc-chan? Wax on, spread the wax... Up. Down. Vert-san, that is enough. Oh? There are still a few places I have not covered. See? I will do the rest myself! Everyone! Would you like some ice tea? That is very thoughtful. Tea for me! This is the stuff! Everyone, help yourselves. Onee-chan? What is it? It is happening! Neptune? Are you okay? Onee-chan? Oh no! I am so embarrassed. What? Yes! Dressing this way... so shameful. Pease do not look at me. Do not look! Do not look! Why is Neptune acting so disgustingly? This is not my Onee-chan! Do not look! I have heard of this before. Shyness is the biggest taboo on this island, but I heard of a drug that maximizes it. Y-You have it all wrong! I do not know about drug– You bitch! How dare you– I do not really get it, but you said you were an upstanding citizen? Pururut-san! No! I am a natural-born villain. I cannot change that quickly. Is that so... If you cannot change that easily... Do not look. Then... Oh no. She transformed. Let's do this slowly... ...to see if I can whip you into shape. G-Go a-ahead and t-t-try it... My. She ran. In the jungle, she will never catch me– On a hopelessly stupid girl like yourself, I do not need to hold back, now do I? Okay then. Let the punishment time s-t-a-r-t! No! Scream more for me! Wow, that is extreme... That certainly is R-18. Now that they are not looking, I feel kind of lonely. S-Sorry Onee-chan. I will look at you, okay? Everyone, we are all ready! Yay! It is a pool! Oh, Peashy... Do not jump in– Peashy-chan! Oh, you know better! It is cool. Honestly, WIth a little pool like this, I do not really– Wide open! Now you have done it! This feels great. Peashy-chan, what is it? Compa, so squishy! I am going to be squishy too! Yes. When you grow up, Peashy-chan, I am sure you will get all squishy. Squishy! Squishy! Coming. I apologize for the wait. May I ask your name? U-Um... Everyone. The artillery is right this way. We are almost there. We will be there in a moment. She has certainly changed. I think anyone would after being a victim of that. The perpetrator seems unconcerned, however. Are you okay? Yes, but I do not remember what I was doing. Maybe you are better off that way. What? Really? Oh but back there Nep-chan... You were so cute. Huh? Why did a chill run down my spine? Everyone, we are here. Nep? Wh-What is this? They are enjoying themselves. Uh... A disco, perhaps? Look at that! Is that the artillery battery? It is just a bubble machine. Oh, it stopped. Something is about to happen. What are they planning on doing? How pretty! Wait not that! We came all the way here just for this– That was– Just my imagination? It has to be. He is in prison right now. Thank you for waiting. I brought her here, but Peashy-san says she does not remember anything about her mother. I-I am sure she will remember soon! Peashy-san, what do you think? That lady, I do not know her. B-But you must! S-Sorry. I am sorry. It is all right. I shall retrieve a cleaning cloth. Huh? I will clean it promptly. One moment please. Um... Yes? Ma... ma... Huh? It seems she now remembers me. Ma... ma... Then you really are... Mama... Mama. That was a complete waste of effort. Definitely. Yes. Noire, what is wrong? You are acting strangely. Huh? N-No, it is nothing. Could it be Noire, you regret not going nude after all? Does that mean Noire-san is a cosplay-loving nudist? You are the nudist, Nepgear. Everyone, you have seen me transform, right? Then let me transform and– Absolutely not! You are all meanies! We are home! Welcome home... Look! Look! I brought souvenirs. I wrote my name on all of them, so they are all Nep-Nep's pudding. We do not have to fight anymore, Pea-ko! Huh? Where is Pea-ko? Neptune-san, actually... Pea-ko went home? Yes. Her mother came for her. No way. But this is just too sudden! Peashy-san wanted to go home with her mother right away. She left without even telling us. So sad... B-But we can go visit her again, right? Well... They left before we could get their address. No way... Dummy... Pea-ko, you dummy! It takes one to... know one. I brought her. Good work. W-Was it okay to do this? Why did you send me? Actually, what was the black substance in the bottle? Your name was... Kiseijou Rei-chan, if I recall correctly? Y-Yes. Then do well to remember this, Rei-chan. Regarding questions, you should only ask them when there is a point to hearing the answers. NepStation NepStation Hello. This is Pururut. I will be hosting Nepstation today. Our guest this time is Ziege-chan– How long are you going to sleep for? Get up already! I am still sleepy, Nep-chan... No more sleeping. We are going on patrol again today. Hey! Do not go back to sleep! Anyway, just get up now. Good morning, Nepgear. We will leave in half an hour, okay? O-Okay. I understand, Onee-chan. Ow. Recently, Nep-chan has been exhausting... Yes, you are right. Yes. They have been going on all-day patrols every day lately. Patrol? With her Onee-san? My thoughts exactly. By the way, Uni-chan, why are you in Lowee? I came here to help Rom and Ram. As it turns out... We found it using satellite imagery! We found where Peashy-chan's is. What? Nothing out of the ordinary so far. Yes, it looks that way Onee-chan. Nep-chan, we came here just three days ago. That is enough time for things to change. It is a pack of wolves. They were not here last time. We will deal with them! Huh? But there is very little danger they will wander into town from here. Monsters are monsters. If you see one, then defeat it! Wait, Onee-chan! Oh, here they are! Sorry to keep you waiting. Sorry to ask for your assistance. Not at all! We want to see Peashy-chan as well. Where is Peashy-chan's place? Well, according to the satellite photo you sent us, probably that one. Hello there! Looks like this one is empty too. That means... She has to be on the top floor! But was it really okay... I mean to come here on our own? Nepgear and Neptune-san want to see Peashy too, right? Yes, of course. We can just take Peashy back to the church with us. When Nepgear-chan arrives home, it will be a big surprise. Yey, a surprise! That is right. So, is this Peashy's home? Hello! Peashy! Peashy! What is with this place? Where is Peashy-chan? "Say no to goddesses"? How rude. This looks familiar. The one from back then. We should live under the goddesses, but live by regulations that are ideal. So the person who was handing out flyers back then was Peashy-chan's mother? I wonder about that. Either way, it does not look like anyone is here. Peashy-chan... I hate goddesses. Goddesses should all just disappear. So why am I helping out in this? You should just resign yourself, okay? Rei-chan. You forced me into this.! I am just a social activist. Why did you pick me? I did not have a choice. My client for this job told me to bring you into this. Who is this client? No idea. We have only spoken over the phone. Well, the pay is not bad. I am going home. That will not do. You... are an accomplice now. You were the one who kidnapped her, right? Now that you understand, stop moping over there and get to work. This girl will be ready soon. Pururut, you help us too. I do not want to. I feel sorry for them. What are you talking about? Pururut, this is also for your sake. You need to respond quickly to major upheavals in the world, right? This does not count as a change at all. Besides... Pururut-san just– People who say they are helping others but are actually doing it for themselves... really infuriate me. Are you talking about me, Pururut? Do you see anyone else making themselves a nuisance here? I-I only want to patrol and look for upheavals– Do not get the wrong idea. Nep-chan, I love you. But when I see people lying to themselves about their feelings, I want to torment them! Stop it, Pururut. I do not want to fight you. Well, I feel the same way. If you let me have my way with you, we will not have to fight. What should I do? What should I do? What is wrong, Nep-chan? Really come at me. Is this all you have? Stop it, Pururut! Stop. Stop it. I told you to stop! Not bad. I expected no less, Nep-chan. Pururut, stay as my friend! For Pururut, I would do anything. You are still lying to yourself. You would also do anything... for someone else besides me, right? Pea-ko... Pea-ko, I should have spent more time with her. Nep's pudding, I should have shared more of it with her! If only I had told her I wanted her to stay longer... That is more like it. If you have feelings you cannot do anything about, then just let them out. This is the Nep-chan that everyone loves. Yes? Hello? Hey, Pururut. What is it Nep-chan? When you were were transformed, this felt better. Is that so? Then I will transform for you. I was lying! This is good too! Like a washboard giving my heart a good scrubbing. Really? Yay! Onee-chan! Pururut-san! Huh? Nepgear, would you like a scrubbing too? U-Um, you see... Just now, I received Histoire-san's call and... ...she said a new nation formed. What? A new nation? What do you mean, Histoire-sama? I am not fully certain yet. I just received a notification that a new nation suddenly formed on R-18 Island. At any rate, Neptune-san and Nepgear-san will meet with the other goddesses and investigate further. What is going on? As I said, they will inves– Why is it always Nepgear who gets to go to R-18 Island? No fair! We are goddesses too. They should take us along! However, I was not the one who– I object to this inimical state of affairs. We want to go! We want to go! We want to go! R-18 Island. I did find that place suspicious, but... That artillery must have had a point after all. We completely missed the warnings. Pururut, is the great power you are looking for also there? I do not know but perhaps... Everyone look out! Hi, my lovely goddesses! Do not tell me... My most humble greetings. This is the brand-new state, Eden. Welcome! Hello Noire-chan. How? I confirmed you were in prison three days ago. I know. You kindly visited me while I was serving my time, right? Well, my double, technically. How dare you mock me! I will capture you right now! Oh, but that will not do. This is an independent nation so... I am afraid, Noire-chan, you do not have the jurisdiction. You silly. As if I would recognize a nation founded by a criminal! You do not even have a goddess! Now, come quietly! Noire! Owie... Flying is hard. Are you... ...a goddess? Yes, that is the case. My name is... Um, um... Oh right. I am Yellow Heart. Nice to meet you. How ridiculously massive! Vert, you are about to lose your identity. What are you saying? The important thing is not size but shape– Oh no. That is what I heard all the losers so far say to me. I cannot sympathize there. Hey you! Whoa! A person came out of my butt! I did not! Just get off of me already! I am going to capture him! Huh? Capture? I will not let you! S-Such amazing strength! Good girl, Yellow Heart. These scary Onee-san are all trying to catch me. You cannot do that! If it is a fight you want, prepare yourself for one! I will wipe the floor with you! I hardly broke a sweat. She is just a rookie. This is fun! I want to play more! She has not taken any damage... This is just part of the process. The real objective is– Hey. Hey. Wh-What? Do you know anything about the large artillery? N-No, I do not! Even a small bit... please tell me. I have nothing to do with it. But you were walking near it, right? I-I was just passing by. You just reek of lies. How fun! More! More! Hey! Who is that girl? L-Listen to me, please. I was just tricked into helping out with this, you see. I am a victim. Oh? If someone plays the victim, I really hate them, you know? Eeek! Please, do not hurt me! Do not bullying her! When someone interrupts my fun, I hate them too! Pururut! Pururut-san! Are you okay? Yes, she only grazed me. Nep-chan, do not. I did not want to fight with the goddess of a new nation but... You are the one who started this! We will not go easy on you anymore! Huh? You will not play anymore? Making them bounce is not all there is to it! Calm down, Vert. It is about time for the climax, I suppose? This is my true power! Tricolor Order Ein Schlag Darjeeling Rotation Dual Edge Did we get her? That line sets a "we did not get her" flag. Sorry. That hurt. My transformation went back. Pea-ko? Papa! Mama! Where are you? We are right here! You did well, Peashy-chan. Go on, Mama, praise her too. Good girl. Thank you. Pick me up! Sure. Sure. How cute. Pea-ko! What are you doing here? Do not tell me you are... No, you could not be... Go away! If mean to Papa and Mama, I hate you! I really hate you! Pea-ko... Hey! What have you done to that girl? Me? Do something? I would never. I am a simple consul. My job is to serve her. It is a little late, but let me introduce you. You see before you Eden's goddess: Yellow Heart, also known as Peashy-sama! Nep-chan... Oh and also, Rei-chan has an important announcement to make. Go on, Rei-chan, read it. Huh? O-Okay. The goddess Yellow Heart governs– I cannot hear you! "Eden demands the ability to export its domestically produced adult-only content to all nations in unlimited quantities." "Failure to comply will be considered a declaration of war." Do you want to fight? Your new nation has paltry Shares. Do you really think you can beat us? Certainly, it is really quite reckless. But this sort of twist is more exciting right? Does this mean... Peashy-chan will go to war against us? Oh and also, Rei-chan has an important announcement to make. Now read it. O-Okay. Th-The passion... I cannot hear you! The passion running through their body could not be contained– Who asked you to read erotica? Going on trips is fun! March! March! Citizens of Eden, please stop! If you advance any more, I will shoot. Hey! It is the bad goddess! Peashy-chan... I hate bad goddesses, but Papa said I could play with them! So, play with me! Onee-chan! Yes. It seems Nepgear is fighting them herself. I will go too! Uni, take a look at this. Lift the restrictions! Lift the restrictions! I want to see more explicit content! Lift the restrictions on adult content. Down with age restrictions. Lift the restrictions! Lift the restrictions! Lift the restrictions on adult content. Pro-Eden extremists riots have broken out at Lastation, Leanbox, and Lowee simultaneously. So this is no time to be worrying about Planeptune, I take it? While clearly an Eden diversionary tactic, we must still take care of this first. But then... what about Planeptune and Nepgear? Our first duty is to protect our own citizens. We are goddesses, after all. Lift the restrictions! Lift the restrictions! Good, good. We are on the right track. Take that, and that, and that. The entire world fell into chaos in an instant. Please, do not talk like you had nothing to do with it. You are the commander-in-chief of our army, you know. "Our army"? They are doing this only because you are controlling their minds. What is that black substance? Like I said, I do not know either. Everything came from the client and we are forbidden to pry any further. I am scared. I feel like the world is turning upside down. Well, who knows? Not even you Peashy-chan, I will not let anyone go further! Okay! Then we can play here! That goddess is the "large something" we have been looking for it seems. I was afraid of that. Then Peashy-chan knew Ai-chan and myself from the start because... she knows the two of you from the other dimension, I assume. This is complicated. Right now, a portion of my world is quickly unraveling towards destruction. So Peashy-san was supposed to govern that place. Is that correct? I believe so. So I need Pururut-san to bring her back immediately, even if by force! I do not want to force her... If we do not act, our nation will be in big trouble too! I know but... Hello? Oh, yes! Hey there! Neptune! N-Noire? Why are you still there? How about you go protect your citizens! But I... It is Pea-ko, you know? Listen. You are goddess right? As a goddesses, put your nation before your own feelings! Pea-ko, you mean, take her down? That is what I would do. That is all I wanted to say. Bye. Was I too harsh? No, I know she will... Maybe Noire could do it, but... If you cannot do it, then that is fine. Let's stay here, play some games and relax. This is not the time for games, even for me... Why? If you are not going, then what is the difference? No. Games are for having fun, not for escaping reality. Escaping? I... So fun! I knew it. She is not taking any damage! Here I come! Wh-Why? At this rate, I will never... Onee-chan? Sorry I am late, Nepgear. Not at all. But, Onee-chan... Hey, play with me more! Nepgear, take care of the soldiers and monsters please. Hey! Are you listening to me? They might breach the barricade. But... Go! Okay, understood. Pea-ko! I will play with you now! I will do things my way. Bring it on, Pea-ko! Here comes a big one. Bam! Pow! Huh? Done already? It is not that easy to defeat Neptuna. You know that, right Pea-ko? Neptuna... I do not. No, I am sure you remember. Because, I am Pko's Neptuna! I do not! You do! I do not! You do! I do not. I do not! So weak! This is boring! I will not play with you anymore. It takes one to know one! It takes one to know one. I hate you. I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I really hate you! Eden has almost no believers, yet, I sensed Yellow Heart had massive amounts of Share Energy. Something is strange. Noire-chan. Pururut? Why? Nep-chan did not want to play games. What? Noire-chan, what about you? Should you be here? It is all right. I have a reliable little sister. If you still want to fight, then prepare yourself! I see. Goddesses! Shhh! They heard us! So I have no choice but to take you head on! I thought everyone here had been turned into soldiers, but I see you managed to make it. S-Spare me! What should I do? Lickity lick. That tickles! I knew you would come. Accept my torrent of love, Noire-chan! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I have you now, Pea-ko. Let me go! Let me go! Let me go! Let me go! Let me go! I wil never let you go! Ever again! I would expect no less, Noire-chan. But my love is unlimited! So good! So good! Rei-chan, quit playing around and find the other goddess. I am right here. Oh dear. How? My friend just happened to know. By giving her information, I kept my chastity safe. You are not really my type, but you still need to be punished. Oh, could you arrange for Noire-chan to punish me instead? Oh? Speak of the devil. There is nothing my sword cannot cut! Kyun! Not bad. Then, I will also... whip you hard! What is this? A machine that provides Share Energy? How violent. You could have just asked to see instead of breaking the wall. Is this the secret behind Yellow Heart's strength? I am afraid I signed a confidentiality agreement. If we broke this, what would happen to Peashy-chan and Eden, I wonder? Since you will not tell us, we will have to find out for ourselves. Fighting Viper Lace Ribbon Dance No! Let me go! Let me go! I will not! I will not let you go! No! Remember! Remember me, Pea-ko! I do not! I do not! I do not! I do not! I do not know you! Huh? What is wrong? What is going on? No! Let me go! Pea-ko... Pea-ko! I hate you! But I love you. Pea-ko, I love you. I love you. I love you. I hate you. I hate you. It is okay. I do not mind if you hate me. Pea-ko, so long as you are here. I hate you... And so, the nation of Eden's short-lived history came to an end. The riots in each nation subsided without major casualties. Everything went back to normal... or it should have. But Peashy-chan's memories... Nep... tune? Everyone, take care. So this is goodbye... I will miss you. Somehow, it feels like we have been friends forever. I will not forget you both. Me neither. Oh, Gear-chan! Here. Is this me? Thank you very much! Take good care of it. Take care of yourself, Peashy. Even if you do not remember us... We will always be friends! Okay. I hope our counterparts in her dimension will become friends with Peashy-chan again. I am sure it be fine. It is Compa and me we are talking about. All right, everyone. While it saddens me to say goodbye, it is time... We only have a limited time to open the gate. Oh wait! Onee-chan has not– It is time. Opening the gate! Hey! Neptune, you are late! Sorry! Pururut, thank you so much for coming. We will meet again, okay? Yes. Definitely. Pea-ko, take these with you. Neptune, what is this? The most delicious thing in the whole world. E-Excuse me! It is time to enter the gate! Okay! Everyone, see you later! Peashy-chan... Neptuna? Pea-ko... I will not forget you both. Me neither. Oh Gear-chan! Here. Huh? This is not like the others– Take good care of it okay? I will! I have never seen a Share Crystal this bright. It is amazing. Nep-ko, what does this mean? As you can see, Planeptune is booming right now! Our Shares showed a gradual downward trend, but one day they rose suddenly, and we are now far outpacing the other three nations. Why is this happening? That it obvious. Planeptune has what this era wants: 64-bit architecture. Probably, stopping Eden's invasion was the single greatest factor. Still, this feels like too drastic a change. But, Nep-Nep did give it her all! Yes, she did. Onee-chan, congratulations! Well, this is nothing for me when I get serious. That aside, here is today's real agenda. Behold! I want to thank all of our citizens, so I am opening the church grounds for a huge celebration. I call it the Dynamite Wonder Festival! Why? Why did things turn out like this? I am just a social activist. You are all invited! Here! You called us here for this? I do not have time for this nonsense. I am going home. Hey Blanc! Wait! Come on, wait! I know you did not mean any harm, but perhaps you are being a bit insensitive, Neptune? Since the riots, every nation except yours has had plummeting Share values. I know, but... It probably hit Blanc the hardest. Your nation had the fewest Shares for years, and yet, Planeptune overtook hers in an instant. Lowee is an old nation, so their pride is quite high. Mine is not like that, but this still frustrates me. Well, I am sure we will beat you again in no time. Wait just a moment. We signed a treaty of friendship, you know? The Share rankings are not import– They still matter. The treaty does not change the fact that we vie for Shares. Indeed. I am sorry, but I am not softhearted enough to celebrate another nation's increase in Shares. Hey... For the opening ceremony, I asked 5pb-chan to perform. She is already scheduled to appear on my net program that day, so... that will not happen. Vert... Noire, can you not come? Right. I am busy. Details on the Eden Share-producing machine are still very much unknown to us. And I have more to... I understand. But if have free time later, you are always welcome. Okay? Neptune... See you later, Noire. Onee-chan, welcome home! Welcome home! I am home. How did the investigation go? We will ready a findings report for tomorrow. Hurry. Hey, let's play some games, Onee-chan! Lowee Sports has a new version out. So exciting! All right. We can play. Ga-thunk! Ga-thunk! Ga-thunk! Abnes Channel viewers, hello again! It has been a while. The ally of little girls everywhere, I am Abnes. Planeptune's church is having a gathering with crowds of little girls attending, I have been told. This smells like a conspiracy! Okay, time to save those little girls! Ga-thunk! Your conspiracy ends here! D-Do not let their tricks fool you! I am sure this nation's little goddess is up to no good– Jeez, watch out! The little goddess! At last, your time has come! Today I will prove, once and for all, that little girls cannot be goddesses. Prepare yourself! Now give up quietly and just be a little girl! Um... Who are you again? She does not remember me... Onee-chan, we need to deliver these promptly! Yes, I know. Hey Nepgear... She can help you with the delivery. Oh, are you a volunteer? Could you take this to the Green Hill attraction– I am Abnes! Ally of little girls everywhere! We have met before! What? We have? They really do not remember me! Hello, Blanc? Are you coming after all? What? Honestly, she is so pushy. And I happen to be busy today. Blanc? I am here. Where are you? Blanc? Getter Ravine What are you doing, Blanc? Hand over the Shares, Neptune! What are you saying? The treaty of friendship prohibits taking Share Energy by force– But stealing it is okay? What does that mean? I do not understand. I investigated the national Share changes. And guess what I found? Lowee's Shares declined exactly as much as Planeptune's Shares rose. Lastation and Leanbox also had their Shares stolen like that. That explains your sudden Share increase, right Neptune! Wait! I knew nothing about this! I did not know you could even– Oh really? It's true! Believe me! If we say it was not you... Histoire might have done it. Histy-san? She would never! Then maybe it was Nepgear! Onee-chan! No fighting! Stop, please! You two, be quiet! This is an international dispute. No, we will not! Nepgear and the others would never do that! We are friends! Well, someone is doing it! Consider this a warning, then. But know this, Neptune... ...if you continue to feign ignorance... there will be war! What is... going on? All better! Just be careful when running. Wait, Purple Sister! This way! Wait! Now watch closely! What a crowd! Wonderfully done, Neptune-san. Oh my, Noire-chan. How nice of you to visit. How have you been? You are under maximum security and yet you e-mail me? You have some nerve. But Noire-chan, I just wanted a bit of girl talk with you. If you have something to say, just say it. I am busy. So cold as always, I see. No wonder you do not have any friends! Get on with it. Okay, okay. I have a lot of time lately, you know? So I investigated my client. The Eden case one. To be clear, I have not breached my contract. It said nothing about what I could or could not do after its expiry. I could not care less about that! Well? What did you figure out? Who is the mastermind? Well, you see... The time... has come. Kiseijou Rei? I thought you dragged her into it... Yes, that is what I always thought too. She is a con artist, in other words? If that were all, I would have seen through it. The fact she fooled even me means Rei-chan must be... Must be what? Something far more sinister... I suppose. Me, do the event introduction? Yes. Nep-ko ran off somewhere and has not returned. Very well. What could have happened to Neptune-san? Histoire-sama! What is this? Reborn at last! My continent, my nation, Tari! What is that? Who is that? You, the not-little goddess. Those little girls are trapped! Stop standing around and save them! O-Okay! Oh, you are here already, Planeptune's goddess? Are you... Kiseijou Rei? Oh, I do not like that name at all. I mean, that is a very boring name for a goddess, right? Are you a new goddess? Excuse me? Try not to insulting me, okay? I have been around far longer than you. I am Tari's goddess. The goddess of the great nation that rules this land. Tari's goddess? What is that continent? Who is Nep-ko talking to? I do not know. The only thing I do know is... that a Share Crystal's shining light is there. Neptune-san is talking to, without a doubt, a goddess. "Tari" was it? That was...the vast, ancient nation that perished long ago? Except that part was wrong. It was not destroyed. See, I have been waiting for the perfect timing to make a comeback. If you are the Tari's goddess... What exactly are you after? This land, and all those who inhabit it. Let me have it all. Do that, and I might spare your life. In fact, this all belonged to me in the first place, so shut up and give it back, bitch. That is how it is. Do not be ridiculous. This is Planeptune– my nation. Obviously, I cannot hand it over. Oh, so that is your answer? And you did not even give it a second thought! There is no other option. In that case... Energy charge, okay! Threatening me is useless. Oh, wait, wait! How about this, then? Can you still say that now, Oh great goddess? Pong Laser Cannon Fire! What are you doing? We need that tool! Look out! Are you okay? Without a camera, I cannot tell the world about that! Well? Is your answer still the same? Welcome to Vert's Room. Today, we have our very own diva, 5pb-chan, as our guest. She will play a single from her new album as a world premiere on today's show it seems. Everyone please stay tuned until the end. Did Uni-chan reply? Yes. Uni-chan says she was not allowed to attend Planeptune's festival either. Maybe we will not get to play with Nepgear-chan anymore? What are you saying, Rom-chan? There is no way that would happen. But Onee-chan was really mad. It is no good, the internet and phones are both down! Our communications systems have all been destroyed! Which means... We can not ask anyone for help. Your answer has changed, right? Only a moron would not change it now! That is right. It changed. I will not let you get away with this! This is my nation. These are my citizens. I will protect them! It is no good, the internet and phones are both down! Which means... Aw, Pre-orders for the new game console just opened, but I can not get through! Hey! That will not work at all! It will be okay. I will help find your mommy. Compa-san! Gear-chan! Nep-Nep is fighting! Yes. I am about to go help her– What are you saying? Evacuating the little girls takes priority obviously. Yes, please help them, Nepgear-san. Histy-san! Ai-chan! Are you all right? Do not worry, we are fine. We should lead everyone away from the city. Understood! Everyone! That way! Please hurry! Onee-chan... Wait just a little longer. Blaze Break Like I said, attack all you want, it will not do any good! Certainly, that lightning is powerful, but I should not be taking this much damage. Something is not right. Mommy! I am glad. Gear-chan? What is wrong? It is just... I feel like the Share Energy within me is disappearing. Negear-san, transforming back to normal should be best. I do not know why, but our Share Energy reserves are dropping rapidly. Now then... Filling Pong Laser with energy once again! The next target is... There are many people there... I will pick that spot! Stop it! I don't want to! Lock on. No, Neptune-sama is... Neptune-sama! Oh no! We are done for! What should we do? I do not want to die. Everyone, it will be all right. Please calm down! Onee-chan will– But Neptune-sama is losing! We are doomed! Nepgear! You must not, Nepgear-san. The Share Energy is still not– What is with that gloomy look? Rainy Ratnapura Is this your event? It is quite flashy. Noire? Vert too! You came? I only came to drop off 5pb-chan. Hi! Sorry for the wait, Nepgear! Uni-chan! And 5pb-san too! Uni-san, thank you. It was nothing. Now I will help Onee-chan. Okay! Also fight my part, please! Is that 5pb-chan? What is she doing here? Everyone! There is nothing to worry about! Let's believe in our goddesses! She brought something quite ostentatious with her, but... Who exactly is she? She calls herself... ancient Tari's goddess. I do not know how a long dead nation obtained so much Share Energy, however. Look there. Eden used a similar device. That machine creates Share Energy. In that case, we should start by destroying it, right? I will hit home! I have to say, four-on-one is a bit annoying. My powers... are draining... What is going on? What did you do? My Share Energy... I am losing it! Could that really... be stealing Shares instead? Exactly. Oh, it was about time the laser reached full energy. Then, can I shoot? No! Stop it! I am still going to do it, though. Fire! Ice Sanctuary What? Attack from under the laser, and she cannot hit with lightning. Right? Blanc! Rom-chan! Ram-chan! We did it Rom-chan! We are the best. Yes, Ram-chan. The best. I can feel the Share Energy. Histy-san! Go ahead! Thank you, Blanc! I calmed down and thought it over. I realized if Eden's machine could steal Shares, then everything would make sense. That is our Blanc. But you went and kept the best part all to yourself. No fair. Onee-chan! Let's begin. Now it is the goddesses' turn! You are too late! I already have enough Share Energy to destroy the world! "Destroy"? You just wanted this nation, right? Are you a moron? I could not care less about that! What I really want... is to lay waste to everything! Why? You are a goddess too, right? Yes, I am. Yet all they did was complain. They never obeyed me! "They"? Tari's goddess persecuted citizens that did not like her. People lost faith in their goddess. The nation lost its Shares and collapsed. Known as the "Great Tari Crash." Sounds like it was her fault. You are wrong! They stole my nation from me! Now I will be doing the stealing! Energy Replenish I feel sorry for you. You never had any friends, did you? You have my sympathy, but you can never have our world! The next one will be at maximum output! Your petty magic cannot stop this! Vert. Noire. Blanc. Uni-chan. Rom-chan. Ram-chan. Nepgear. Lend me your power! You are trying to destroy the Pong Laser, right? Can you really get there before it reaches full energy? I will send you flying there at the speed of light. Where are you even aiming? Eat this! Ha, I barely felt that! Onee-chan, please! Not letting you! It is pointless! Go, Neptune! It is charged enough! If you have it out, I can cut it! You bitch! Fire! Victory Slash My continent... Give it up. What you desire will never happen. I advise you surrender. Did you think that making my continent fall was all you needed to do to win? If I unleashed the energy I have left, I could destroy half the world, you know? Certainly. Your hatred is shockingly strong. However... It is still just hatred. It does not matter if we use up all our Share Energy. We, Goddesses, still have only one task. Right, Nepgear? Yes! Yes, just keep playing "hero of justice"... In the afterlife! Everyone... I will go too! I am not done yet. I can blow them up, at least. Then I will rip the world to shreds– Then we have a problem. This world will be mine one day, you know? Huh? Who are you? Okay, old hag! Sleep in the dark abyss of despair! No! No! My power! We finally recovered the anti-crystals, should we really have used them for this, old hag? I decided it on a whim. The "whimsical" affinity is for people under twenty only. Wait! Did you... save us? Do not be ridiculous. I will forever be your enemy. Okay! But just for today, let me express my gratitude. Thank you, Mother Kong! Who are you calling Mother Kong! Thanks to your efforts, we recovered our Shares and stand before the new Planeptower whose completion we celebrate today. Are everyone's Shares normal now? Of course. Tari was merely stealing them. It is not like we ever lost the hearts of our people. No problems here, either. I am so relieved. Then, let the ceremony begin. Onee-chan! You have to say it. You have to. Hey, Neptune. How should I put this? Uh... Back then... You attacking me, you mean? I am sorry. I felt like you had taken advantage of our treaty, and I could only see my anger. Fighting you all-out after so long... was honestly kind of fun. So I came up with an idea. What was it? I will tell you later. It is thanks to your faith that we were able to complete the new Planeptower. The city of Planeptune is recovering by the day, too. As this nation's goddess, I am grateful to all of you. Thank you so much. And one more thing. I would like this opportunity to make an announcement. And that is... One moment please. I have to be in this form after all. Well... I, Planeptune's goddess, Neptune, on this day, void the treaty of friendship! Huh? What? We have no need for that old thing anymore, right? We are true comrades now! Right, Noire, Vert, Blanc? I suppose so. From now on, you would like to compete fair and square, I take it? So you do say clever things once in a while. Then how about we hold an exhibition match right now? Let's do this! My chest sings with excitement. Hey, wait for me! I am the main character here! Uni-chan! Rom-chan! Ram-chan! Count me in. We will show them we are the best! Yes, the best. Looks like things will get chaotic once again. Onee-chan... I can't do it. That sword has the power to take a goddess's life, right? The only goddesses left are you, Nepgear, and me. In order to defeat it... A sacrifice needs to be made! Onee-chan... Nepgear, do it. Okay. I will do it. I'm sorry! Onee-chan... Onee-chan... Yes? You still have more to go! N-No! Stop... Her fever is not coming down. Poor thing. Bad end nightmares reoccur with this illness, right? Yes. After three days, I remembered a goddess three generations ago also caught it. And it is called "Bad End Syndrome"? Bad End Syndrome? How was that, Onee-chan? My fighting skills have improved, right? They certainly have! Therefore, I bestow the privilege of this eggplant on your face. Who are you? Twintail power is too strong... Uni also has the same illness. We are so grateful, Onee-chan! We can finally be happy! Now, girls, let us finish our vows with a lickity lick. Licking...stop...so gross... Same over here. They have had several nightmares today. I want them cured as soon as possible. It will be okay! Histy remembered how to cure it. Right? Yes. A plant called the Shimmering Flower instantly cures this type of illness once it is taken. Really? Where can we find it? There have not been many around here lately. The Lowee and Lastation border caves might have some, but I am not very sure. Even if only a slight chance... We will go search for them! But, it is uncertain you will find any. Do you have any more information? I have heard of one more place they are rumored to grow. But it is rather far. We will go as far as it takes! Yes! This is for Nepgear-chan and the others. Is that so? That place is... Yahoo! I did not expect the faraway place to be another dimension. This is quite a surprise. Oh, I am more surprised that Histy figured out how to create a gate to another dimension. Oh, look! Look! That must be the other dimension's Planeptune. Pururut-san should be there. Yes. And... Pea-ko too! Whoa! Wh-What? What? Ouch... Transforming before landing should have been easy! So why! Perhaps in this dimension we cannot transform. Blanc! And... M-Me? Nep? Noire too! Jeez. What are doing, falling on people all of a sudden? Do you have no common sense at all? That is so weird... Noire and Blanc should be in the caves. I know! This is a fake Noire! In other words, "Impost-Noire!" I am not this "Impost-Noire." I am not a fake either. Wait, who are you anyway? Me? I am- Nep-chan! Vert-san! Ah, Pururut! Great to see you again. I am glad you were not hurt coming here. Then you are who Pururut-san told us about, the another other dimension's goddesses. We are the goddesses here. What? I did tell you. This dimension also has Noire-chan, Blanc-chan and Vert-san. Really? You said that we had doppelgangers here? I did! There is someone like me in your dimension? Yes. She looks and speaks the same way. Even your personalities are the same. Then I must have an equivalent over there too, right? Ah. So this Noire is a loner as well. Excuse me? As I thought, being large is justice, right? Indeed. Size rules the world, right? Double Vert Boing She is twice as annoying today. This is the just the kind of feeling I expected! Welcome! Is this Histy? She is so small and so cute! A-Am I now? Hey, Pururut, let me have this Histy. Huh? No. Stingy! Huh? Pea-ko... Come here, Pea-ko! Neptune... That is fine. You can call me Neptune or Neptuna, either way. After all, Pea-ko is Pea-ko. So come to me! Nep... Neptuna! Pea-ko! Neptuna! Pea-ko! Neptuna, so weak! I know this feeling all too well, Pea-ko. So that is where the Shimmering Flowers are. The Cursed Hell Devil Death Bloody Spectral Tower. They are at the topmost floor. The 10,000th to be exact. 10,000 floors? That is an amazing name too. Are there super-strong monsters there? Yes, of course. If it were not for you, we would not even think of going there. We? We are going with you. Nep-chan, after all, you cannot transform, right? Pea will go too! To protect Neptuna! Thank you Pururut. And everyone... And Pea-ko too... Excuse me! Please do not forget, the dimensional gate to go back opens in three hours. Huh? Here. The next time that gate opens will be in three years. That means you must get back to the church by that time. But is it even possible to clear 10,000 floors in three hours? We can instantly transport back when near the final floor with the warp point nearby. So just one-way should be okay. Sounds tough... Well we have to try at least! All right! To the Cursed Spectral Tower we go! Yes! Well, who would have thought we could go from the 4th to the 9,999th floor directly with the newly built elevator, right? But still, a two hour elevator ride is tiring. To get to the top floor, we use the warp point here. It also says there are strong monsters on this floor. Yes. They have come to greet us. They certainly do look tough. I can not wait! Allow me to join you. We will handle them! Go on ahead! Thank you! We will do just that. Ah. Two of those warp thingies, Beru-Beru. Yes, that is right. Wait, Beru-Beru? Did you just call me Beru-Beru? Yes. Beru-Beru! Huh? What is it, Vert? This is the first time she has given me a nickname... Crying? Right now? Vert-san is so popular with kids. Here they come. It is finally my turn! Me too! Now, bring it on! Nep-chan, this will allow you to keep going. Pururut, you are the same as always. Anyway, thank you! Oops, that was close. This one goes up. The final floor, we made it! Where are the Shimmering Flowers? Pea will look! Alright, split up! Like a kangaroo, Boing! Here they are! Neptune! This guy is too big! Get out of here! Over here too! Here it comes! Neptuna! Pea-ko! Neptuna, Beru-Beru, run! Thank you! Just a little more! Stop! Let me go! Vert... I will take them, Neptune. However, you must make it back. Understood. Pea-ko! I am coming to save you! Hey you! Get away from Pea-ko! Neptuna... Pea-ko! Pururut-san! Hurry, hurry! Ah, I need to prepare the gate. Wait, Neptune is not here yet. You need to take those flowers to Gear-chan and the others, right? Leave Neptuna alone! Let's go, Pea-ko! Alright, Neptuna! Opening the gate! But what about Neptune? It is Nep-chan. She will be fine. Neptuna! Why did you stay? Pea-ko, you were in a pinch. Of course I could not leave you. But... And you know... Pea-ko, I fought alongside you. We were completely in-sync. Neptuna... Ah! She is still here! Oh, everyone good work! The time to be saying that. What will you do? Well, I will think of something. Something the main character would do, okay? In the mean time, we can go back to the church. Hm? That is weird. Maybe the connectors are bad. If you are that rough with it... Whoa, that was a shock. What was that all about? Neptune? And Peashy too... How? Noire... Blanc... What? What? No way. Is this me? I am here, too. What is going on? They are your dimension's Noire and Blanc, I believe... Yes. That means... Could it be? Did I just discover a warp point between dimensions? I am an amazing main character! Main character! We really are the same... Your clothes are very cute. So are yours. I cannot believe this. Hey, are you... Am I what? ...a loner? Excuse me? Peashy-chan, stop! That is a new one I just bought! Yay, playing with Nepgear! I will play with you! Please, give it back! That is our Pea-ko! She is like the number one cure. She must be happy. So, because of that malfunction, the dimensional gate will stay open now? Does that mean we travel back and forth all we want? Probably! But that is fine. Then, in that dimension, there must be another Compa and me, right? Yes. I want to meet them! I thought you would want to. So I brought a picture of you two. No way! We are kids? Oh, Ai-chan, you are so cute! C-Compa, you are the cute one. Oh! It is time! Huh? What is it? You will see. Here. For you. What? This is? Peashy-chan made it. It is Pea's pudding. Pea-ko, how amazing! There is enough for everyone. Alright! Let us all toast to Pea-ko's pudding! To Planeptune! To our dimensions! And finally... To Gamindustri! Cheers!
