Setsuna Ep. 25: Solving the Mystery!

Setsuna joins you in trying to get Kasumi to reveal what the cuteness factor is, but the effort ends in failure when Kasumi runs away. She tries to apologize to Kasumi afterward, but she's been keeping her distance ever since.

Player

S-Setsuna… What are you doing squatting over here?

Setsuna

Kasumi hates me. She's been avoiding me after what I said.

Setsuna

I mean, I get it. It doesn't matter how cute I think Kasumi is if she considers herself a failure…

Setsuna

How could I… How could I have said that to her with a smile on my face!

Player

About that…

Player

I don't think that Kasumi is mad at you.

Setsuna

Huh?

Player

Well, Kasumi said that she's been researching all kinds of cute things to help out the Magical Girl Studies Club.

Player

And she also said that she realized what you mentioned the other day was just another part of her own cuteness.

Player

So she's currently using that as reference to train for her magical girl spell-casting. That's probably why you haven't seen her lately.

Setsuna

I-I see! That's… That's great to hear!

Player

Hey, Setsuna.

Setsuna

Hm? What is it?

Player

I think I figured it out… The cuteness factor…

Setsuna

Huh?

Player

Well, when you were feeling down earlier, you didn't look like your usual self… You looked so fragile. It made me want to give you a big hug.

Setsuna

Whaaat?! M-Me?

Player

Is that how you felt about Kasumi?

Setsuna

Y-Yes! That's the feeling! And it's not that I wanted to see her like that more, it's more like…

Player

You felt like you might go crazy if you kept seeing her like that, right?

Setsuna

That's it! That's exactly it!

Option 1: “I understand now, thanks to you.”

Player

I understand now, thanks to you.

Setsuna

I wish you didn't have to see me like that, but I guess it turned out all right in the end!

Option 2: “I'm sorry, I know that you were feeling down.”

Player

I also thought that you looked cute when you were feeling blue… I'm sorry.

Setsuna

It's fine. I guess it's a different kind of cuteness… I don't mind, so don't you worry about it.

Player

It's just like you said, Setsuna. It's really hard to explain the cuteness factor using words alone. It's more like a feeling.

Player

If you had to put it into words, it's kind of a disconnect. The thrill of that moment when you see something authentic that you don't normally see.

Setsuna

Authentic, huh? You might be onto something. The younger sister in the movie also causes all kinds of trouble and annoys her big sister, but…

Setsuna

…even though she tries to hide it, her feelings of love for her sister start to show through.

Player

Yeah, I think I've got a grasp of those feelings now. I've got an idea for a melody!
