Hello?
Oh, Onii-chan?
It's me.
Ikusu, cut it out already.
Oh? How did you know it was me?
Caller ID.
Whoops, I screwed up.
Besides, your voice is different.
It's not what you'd get from a voice changer.
How should I put it?
It sounds modified but natural at the same time.
In that case, she's probably using something pretty sophisticated.
Also, it's water-resistant.
Probably something small.
She called me from the bath one time.
I see.
So it's water-resistant and small enough to carry around.
All right, I got it.
I'll look into it.
Look forward to the results.
No, you don't need to-

Episode 04
The Sister's Hero is Her Brother!
Miyabi.
Good morning, Shougo-san.
Konoe.
What's wrong?
Oh, nothing really.
Let's get going.
By the way, this is called "attacking by cars."
Oh, and speaking of cars,
I bought a brand new car the other day.
It's a cute one too.
Sensei!
What is it, Tanaka?
I'd rather piggyback you than have you drive a car!
Together~
You fool!
I knew I wouldn't be able to sweet-talk you, Sensei.
You were trying to sweet-talk me?!
I can feel the love, Sensei!
Kotori Attack!
I can feel it!
What happened between you and Kannagi-san?
What? Nothing really.
Please don't lie to me!
Kannagi-san was acting strange today.
It's like she reverted to how she used to be.
During her first year, Kannagi-san couldn't make friends.
She was always alone.
Now she calls me a closet perv and says I have a big butt,
but still, I like the current Kannagi-san better.
So... So I...
Konoe.
I'm telling you this because I trust you.
Huh?
So promise me that you'll keep it a secret.
O-Okay.
Miyabi is actually...
"She jested, and they seemed like amiable siblings."
Now, "amiable siblings" is used here to mean, "this brother and sister are very friendly with each other."
Where did Konoe go?
All done.
Konoe said she'd help me out when it was my turn to clean up.
Where the heck is she?

Unknown Caller
Yo, Shougo-kun.
I tried withholding the caller ID this time.
Call Incoming
Unknown Caller
Don't confuse me like that!
I think I've figured out what voice changer she's using.
Huh?
The IMT-270.
It's a cellphone with a new feature that the Kyoasu Company was planning to launch.
And that new feature is...
Yep. It's a sophisticated voice changer.
They apparently bought the technology from some start-up company.
It's a feature that allows you to make calls in the voice of a celebrity or anime character with unprecedented ease.
However, they received criticism right after the announcement.
It was pointed out there was a risk of such voice-changing being used for pranks or serious crimes.
So that means...
They canceled the launch and recalled the samples they had distributed.
By the way, what I just sent you is a picture of that recalled sample.
If there's someone around you who uses that phone...
No way!
...she's probably the sister you're looking for.
So... So...
Hello?
Is something wrong, Shougo-kun?
Shougo-kun?
I see.
I see now.
But... But I...
Don't run in the hallways!
Please follow the school rules.
You see?
You already stand out enough as you are,
so you need to set an example for the other students.
Kunitachi-san.
President Tendou.
Wh-What is it?
Please help me find Konoe.
Find Tsuruma-senpai?
Why?
I'll explain later, but please help me find her.
But...
Okay!
Wait, President!
Okay, I'll look over there.
Wait! President!
I just said not to run in the hallways!
I-I'm sorry.
Mikadono.
Why are you in such a rush?
Could it be you now feel like visiting Lyrical Sisters?
Sorry, Senpai.
Hey! Mikadono!
Miyabi!
Wait!
Miyabi, I need your help.
My help?
Help me find Konoe.
Why should I?
Please.
Konoe, where on Earth are you?
Goodbye, Onii-sama.
Unknown Caller
She's not here.
Where are you, Konoe?
Where are you...
Unknown Caller
I got it!
Konoe!
Shougo-san.
So that's where you are.
What do you mean?
How did you know I was here?
Because of that.
When you called me earlier,
I heard the cuckoo clock go off in the background.
So I figured you'd be here.
Then you already...
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
I...
I am your sister.
Do you remember the photo I sent with the cake on your birthday?
Yeah.
I don't really remember much from back then due to my injury, though.
Your dad, Kumagorou-san, took the picture.
My dad and Kumagorou-san were old friends.
When we were little, they often took us there to play.
That day was no exception.
I'd have so much fun whenever we played together.
Maybe it was because that was the day he took the photo of me kissing your cheek.
I was much happier than usual.
But on the way home...
Hurry up already!
Hey, wait up!
You shouldn't run like that.
Hurry up!
Watch out!
Shougo!
Do you remember what you said after pushing me out of the way?
You looked at me and asked, "did I protect you like Grand Bellion?"
Grand Bellion?
So I was trying to be a hero, huh?
You weren't just trying!
You are my hero, without a doubt.
That fact will never change.
No one else will ever take your place as my hero.
Konoe...
Maybe it was due to that incident,
but my dad and Kumagorou-san started to drift apart.
I wasn't able to see you anymore.
That's why I really was surprised when I heard you were transferring in.
And on your birthday too...
So those presents were...
Yes.
I knew it was wrong to look,
but I saw your transfer-in papers on Kotori-sensei's desk.
Transfer-in Application
I took down your address and your phone number.
Transfer-in Application
I sent you the cake, the picture of us, and the Grand Bellion action figure.
I thought if you saw them, you might remember all those times we had together.
I can understand all that, but why did you make those calls?
You went as far as changing your voice...
My dad developed this phone.
So is your dad Kyoasu's...?
I felt bad the launch got canceled after they went as far as making the prototype, so I used it secretly.
Um, Shougo-san.
You still haven't noticed?
That voice came from a character in Grand Bellion.
Oh, I see!
That was the voice of Perin-chan, the cyborg!
But Perin-chan was his maid, not his sister.
Huh? But she always referred to Grand Bellion as "Onii-sama."
Yeah, but that was just her admiring him as a brother.
They're not actual siblings.
Looks like I had it wrong.
It was a long time ago, so my memory's a bit fuzzy.
Does that mean...
Yes. It was just meant to be a little prank.
I thought I'd surprise you by giving you a Grand Bellion action figure, then calling you using Perin-chan's voice.
I see now.
But I got too caught up in the thought that I had a sister...
I'm sorry.
I didn't think it'd end up like this.
I was only planning on doing it once,
but when I talked with you like that with my identity hidden, I started to feel like I actually was your sister.
It was really fun.
What do you mean?
When we were kids, I wanted to be your sister.
I figured we could be together forever that way.
I-I see.
But it seems like I ended up causing Kannagi-san problems.
No, that was just my misunderstanding all of it.
But I'm the one who caused it!
Kannagi-san and I promised that we'd play fair when it came to you,
but in the end, it's like I snuck behind her back and tricked her.
You two made a promise like that?
And then, you told me all about the situation on the rooftop
and said it was because you trusted me.
But here I was, lying to you.
It really hurt, and I didn't know what to do.
Was that why you weren't in the classroom?
I couldn't bear to look at your and Kannagi-san's faces.
It made me want to go off somewhere.
Dummy.
You could've just told me about it.
But...
Konoe, you thought of me as a hero, didn't you?
So if you're feeling down or in a bind, let me come save you.
Shougo-san...
Wh-Wh-What are you two doing?!
You ask me to help you find Tsuruma-san and got me to run everywhere looking...
How do you explain this?!
N-No... this is...
You too, Tsuruma-san!
You promised to play fair!
Why?!
N-No, you're wrong.
There's an explanation for all this...
Oh?
Then please, go ahead and explain everything.
I see.
So that's why Shougo thought I was his sister.
Sorry. It's my fault.
No, it's my fault for jumping to conclusions.
Well, now that the misunderstanding is cleared,
Shougo can marry me with no worries.
Marry?!
Wh-Wh-What is she talking about?!
I have no idea either.
Oh, so you forgot about that too.
Shougo, we had a make-believe wedding when we were younger, didn't we?
When we were younger?
That's right.
We're childhood friends.
Childhood...
...friends?
What?!
Still, that was surprising.
So I knew both Konoe and Miyabi back then.
When I explained the situation to everyone who helped me find Konoe, they were all surprised too.
I'm the one who's the most surprised, though.
When I was hospitalized for my head injury,
Miyabi's dad was also being treated for an injury there...
I was always really close to my father, so we went to the hospital together.
That's when I met you for the first time.
Until my dad's appointments were over, the two of us would play in the courtyard.
I did think you were kind of weird at first.
You'd suddenly forget promises you had just made,
and you'd suddenly remember things I figured you had forgotten.
I guess those were the injury's aftereffects.
We became friends, and after a while, I realized something.
I was in love with you.
You were my first love.
But then my dad stopped going to the hospital,
and I couldn't see you anymore.
I cried every day.
I kept praying for the day I would get to see you again.
That's why I was really happy when I heard you were transferring in!
It was like God had finally listened to my prayers from when I was a kid.
But it was weird to actually meet you again.
I didn't know how to approach you.
You didn't seem to remember me at all.
I was hoping you'd eventually remember me.
Sorry, I...
Like, seriously!
When you asked me who I'd marry out of the blue,
I totally thought you remembered about that make-believe wedding we had.
Oh, so that's why you gave me that answer.
Who do you want to marry?
Isn't it obvious?
It's you.
It's always been you.
I'm serious about wanting to marry you.
Th-Then...
I'll marry Shougo-san too!
Huh?
Hey, don't get in the way.
N-No, you go away!
What? You wanna fight?
Absolutely!
W-Wait, you two...
Fine. I'll take you on.
But Tsuruma-san, you seriously have to play fair this time.
Okay.
It's not okay!
Okay, we'll start the battle tomorrow morning.
Is that okay?
Of course!
I won't lose!
Listen to me!
Turns out she got the Crabzeus shampoo at the hospital store and had been holding on to the bottle ever since.
And...
I'm your younger sister.
Huh? On the day of Kumagorou-san's funeral?
I wasn't able to go.
I had to take the entrance exam for Miryuuin Academy.
I didn't even know the day of the funeral.
My dad sort of got to know Kumagorou-san from going to the hospital,
but they were never really friends.
It's still possible that I have a sister,
but she's not Konoe or Miyabi.
That means if I did have a sister,
she'd be living a completely separate life from me somewhere.
Lyrical Sisters
Mikadono Shougo's sister, huh?
Shougo-san, please wake up.
Quick, or you'll be late.
Wh-Why?!
A-And what's with that outfit?
Shougo-san, you had a make-believe wedding with Kannagi-san back when you were a kid, right?
So, can we please play newlyweds?
It's only fair.
Only fair?
Oh, you're finally up, Shougo.
Wha... Wh-Wh-Wha-?!
Guys just love girls who are naked under a button-up shirt, right?
No, it's got to be girls naked under an apron when it comes to newlyweds.
It's a dream.
A really bad dream.
It's not a dream, Shougo-san.
That's right, Shougo.
You have to face reality...
Okay?
Ow!
