Magilumiere Magical Girls Inc. (2024) s01e04 Episode Script
Whipped Up a Good One!
1
Magical Girls.
Strong, cool, and agile
Everyone wants to be one.
They're well-paid and popular.
It's a respectable line of work.
Their main duties involve
a particular natural phenomenon.
They exterminate creatures called "Kaii."
An increase in Kaii over the years
sparked a Magical Girl industry boom.
Ranging in size from large to small,
over 500 Magical Girl companies now exist.
We're a start-up.
If we don't have the magic
we'll make it.
Make it? But how?
I'd say it'll take around 20 minutes.
Even less if we use the library.
Give me 15 minutes to make and send it.
Perfect.
Hold on!
It's that easy to whip up new magic?
Only the big companies
do in-house development
We can whip up whatever we want.
Just watch. It's gonna be awesome.
EPISODE 4 : WHIPPED UP A GOOD ONE!
Go, Boss! Go, Boss!
Who's the boss?
You're the boss!
Go, Nikoyama! Go, Nikoyama!
I assembled the Magic Pattern.
I'll link it with attack range!
I designed a Magic Circle
prioritizing transmissibility
and uploaded transparent data.
Alright.
What do you mean,
"idealistic, inefficient moron"?
Well
they're rare, but some Magic Engineers
disregard the norms.
They make on-the-spot decisions
and work for nonmonetary purposes.
Like one of my colleagues, for example.
He was exceptional, and could've been
one of our founding members.
Where is he now?
Ah
He's alive, but scrambling to
survive in this industry.
If you don't mind, may I ask
What?
When AST was founded,
why didn't you bring him on?
Because he's an idealist.
AST, thank you for coming.
I apologize for the sudden request.
Let's skip the formalities.
Is this where the Kaii outbreak is?
Yes, but there's
expensive tableware here too,
so the owner wants
damage kept to a minimum
Containing the Kaii is my top priority.
Damage that occurs during extermination
will be covered by Kaii insurance.
Contact your provider for details.
Yes, I'm aware of that.
But there are many rare,
foreign glasses stored here.
We were hoping you could
try to accommodate that.
I understand.
I'll try to be gentle,
but I can't promise anything.
Please consider using insurance.
Activate Cage Magic.
Assign to Code 25, Range C-10.
AMAMUGI SHOPPING DISTRIC
Barrier Magic, Template 2!
-Kana.
-Y Yes?
We can't let 'em escape the shopping area.
Be on the lookout for speedsters.
Be on the lookout?
Yeah, I'll survey that side.
You, over there.
Me, by myself? I wonder if I'm capable
Come on, you've worked here a month now.
Be confident.
If anything happens, I got you.
Okay.
That's what I like to hear.
Break!
Hey, Kana! Let's finish up quick
and get some ramen.
Okay!
Let's do it!
Speedy ones
Speedy ones
Speedy
It's okay. Calm down.
Mid-Range Magic Template 2 Deploy!
Output : 20.
Execute!
I'll do what I can,
one thing at a time, with confidence!
AMAMUGI COMMUNITY CENTER
TEMPORARY EVACUATION SHELTER
Not a good day for us
What'll happen to our shopping district?
Hopefully nothing too bad
We've been open since
my grandfather's generation!
They'd better not crush my store!
Don't take that anger out on me.
Shouting at each other won't help.
But still!
Will our home be okay?
Don't worry.
Magical Girls will take care of
those pesky Kaii.
Really?
Really.
Final check before transmission!
I'll run the simulation now!
The Amamugi shopping district
sewer follows this route.
We'll place a Magic Circle underground
in the middle of the area.
-But
-What?
The activation point should be a manhole,
but it's hard to judge
the optimal location from here.
Optimal location?
Yes, I want the origin to be
a manhole with a large opening
to maximize the magic's effects.
Basically, like using a wide faucet
instead of a narrow one
to release water in large volumes.
Right.
But we need to start looking
for where that might be.
Eat this!
That's good for now. Next
Yo, Kana!
Ms. Koshigaya!
Are you hanging in there?
I'm managing
Awesome! Ready to get this started?
Get started?
Sakuragi.
Y Yes?
I've got a question for you.
Have you seen any manholes with
slightly wider openings than the others?
Somewhere in the area you just surveyed.
To work as the Magic Circle's
activation point.
Can you search that memory of yours?
A slightly wider opening?
Could you wait a moment, please?
Of course, I'll wait.
I saw one, 50 meters from
the shopping street entrance,
in front of Pub Fumi!
Fantastic.
I'll enter the location data.
Over there, huh?
Right under our noses.
There are more of them than before!
We're charging through here to fire magic?
You did good, Kana.
Leave the rest to me.
Koshigaya, fire the spell, please.
Roger that!
Tell me what to do.
First, move to the activation point.
There, point your broom
at the center of the manhole.
Blast away any lingering Kaii.
Piece of cake.
Kana, cover me!
Roger!
I'll deal with you guys later!
Outta my way!

This may be a problem
Nah, this is easy-peasy.
Be right back.
Aerial Shot Magic Circle : Short-Range 3!

Alighting and attacking simultaneously?
She's superhuman!
All righty! Coast is clear!
Niko!
Perfect landing spot!
Now, keep the broom still!
Transmitting Magic Circle!
Get 'er done!
A manhole becoming a Magic Circle?!
Finish it, Koshigaya!
This one's made-to-order.
Eat it, and like it!
Execute function!
That magical light
Look out there!
It's coming from our store!
What is it?
That's obvious it's them!
Magical Girls!
Pretty
Magic's escaping the manholes.
It's disinfecting things from the inside!
All according to your plan, Sakuragi.
I just made it up on the spot.
Magic that never existed before,
deployed before my very eyes
Yep, nailed it!
I'd call that a mission complete!
See, Kana?
They whipped up a good one!
Yeah!
What was that?
That magic just now
I haven't seen it in the catalogs,
or at any other companies.
That execution was
too perfect to be in-house
Now's not the time.
I must get back to work.
I'll finish at once
and move on to the next job.
In addition to your payment,
take these small gifts!
Thanks, girls!
Ms. Koshigaya, it's too much to
Thank you, and thank you, too!
You may accept their kind gifts.
That's not what I meant.
I'm so glad we chose your company.
This place has aged quite a lot,
but it's full of our memories.
And to think
The town survived like this
with almost no damage!
When I heard of the Kaii outbreak,
I was prepared for the worst.
I thought we'd never see
our little shopping street again.
We'll buff out these scratches,
no problem.
You defeated the Kaii, right?
Young lady with the ponytail
Thank you.
I cast the spell, but our little newbie
was the brains of the operation.
So small, yet so bright!
Take this too, as a souvenir.
Don't forget to take this!
-Th Thank you
-Excuse me!
Thank you, Ms. Magical Girl.
You know
There's a lot to be said for having
a job like this.
You good, Kana? Stay balanced.
R Right!
It's heavy
Ms. Koshigaya!
I'll keep giving it my all!
Good!
Oh, welcome ba
We're back!
-Souvenirs.
-That's a lot of gifts.
This is only a third of it!
Lemme tell ya
Welcome back.
Welcome back.
Boss!
Maps of the shopping district,
and magic blueprints?
They worked so hard
Thank you very much!
That magic not only
exterminated the Kaii
It also protected the shopping street.
I still have a lot of studying to do
about what's important
and also about what needs to be done.
I'm glad you told me to survey the site.
All we did was manifest your idea.
Details of the Kaii outbreak.
The unique stress of facing
an unforeseeable future.
And the historical value
of that shopping street.
These can only be assessed in person.
This world has mountains of data,
but there's just one on-site solution.
Deciding on solutions after
assessing the site is how we grow.
Increasing opportunities like this
That's what our aesthetic
is all about, Sakuragi.
Right!
Speaking of aesthetics, Boss!
You ended up ordering short ribbons!
Long ones are better!
Short ones match my elegance.
-I'm not saying they don't!
-My long hair makes up for it!
I told you,
ribbon length determines the appeal
Here we go again.
Their weird spats start outta nowhere.
Our company really is strange.
Yep.
That's what I love about it.
I can see that

"The President's Night Routine"?
Yes, we received good reviews
after that morning routine special.
It's a sequel to that.
Oh, that's what you two
were discussing yesterday?
But then
My night routine? It's nothing special.
is what he said.
Ah, no worries there.
I got permission to install cameras
in his room for tonight only.
-What?!
-We need to watch him like a hawk.
Midorikawa speaking.
Watch like a hawk? That's um
Is that a customer calling, or what?
You could say that.
Anyway, could you both do me a favor?
Yes! The usual spot, please.
What does this favor entail?
Spying on the boss.
Yes, thank you for calling!
Cozy place ya got here, Kana.
He's back!
That guy's always late.
He went into another room.
To change?
-Oh, he dresses normally at home.
-Hm?
What's with the ribbon?
Uh
He's ironing the ribbon.
You gotta be kidding
He does this daily?
What's that beep?
His bath finished heating up.
He's holding an extensive collection
of beauty products.
That's crazy.
Normal people just grab a towel and go.
Huh?!
Oh! He's finally done.
What's that?
It looks like lemon water.
To replenish vitamins
and hydrate after his bath?
The guy's obsessed.
Something's about to happen.
Stretching.
He's stretching.
He proceeded to massage his face
and refill the humidifier with water.
He went to bed at 12:30 a.m.
The moral here
People who claim to do nothing
actually do a lot.
