00:05I'm a 52-year-old bureaucrat,
00:09Konzaburo Tondabayashi.
00:11Except, one day, I was turned into Grace,
00:14the big baddie of an Otome video game!
00:17A shocking transformation!
00:23Roughly a month has passed since then,
00:26as Ana and I have continued our studies here
00:28at Royal Magic Academy.
00:30Now we are about to reach a new stage
00:32of mastery over magic.
00:35And reveal thy true form!
00:46Huh?
01:08Has he had become a new stage?
01:11Yeah.
01:12Yes.
01:17Let's go!
01:18Yeah.
01:19Did you do that?
01:22But the moon has an advantage,
01:24Yeah.
01:26Did you look forward to it?
01:39Oh
01:58Ah, kimi no koe ga kito boku no nichi shirubha
02:29Miss Anna doll's magical beast is of the pegasus species and has the wind attribute
02:36It shall be your partner from now on. Be sure to take good care of it
02:41Great, I will, I promise
02:44A pegasus, huh? That's a perfect fit for Anna
02:49All right, Hinako, all right
02:51So I understand what the love in the title Magical Academy Love and Beast is all about
02:56But what the heck is a beast?
02:58It's a magical familiar. They're little creatures that act as servants
03:04In the game the protagonist is granted an egg right after she enrolls in the school
03:09An egg?
03:10That's right a beast egg
03:12After spending a month studying the egg finally hatches
03:17Bringing forth her very own familiar
03:20It then greatly expands the variety of spells she can use
03:24In other words the real magic lessons don't begin until after she obtains her own creature
03:30And naturally the story and the way various love roots unfold can change drastically depending on what type of beast
03:37is born
03:38That's what makes this game so much fun!
03:41Congratulations on summoning your beast
03:43Such an accomplishment
03:45Wow, thank you Lady Grace
03:48This is a pegasus with the wind attribute, isn't that right?
03:52So then, I imagine your future magic studies will mainly be focused on creating wind spells
03:57That's right, I'm so happy I love wind magic
04:03If I remember correctly, doesn't wind magic share an affinity with the earth attribute?
04:08I think it's actually water that's the most compatible with the wind attribute
04:12Wait, what?
04:13I thought it was the fire attribute
04:17The ritual is still taking place, keep quiet
04:20They make a good point
04:22Elemental attributes can be very complicated depending on the game
04:26Hmm, here's an idea
04:30Pardon Madame Crona
04:32Before we continue with the beast summoning ritual
04:34Would you mind giving the class a refresher on elemental attributes?
04:39That looks to be necessary
04:41Very well then
04:43Everyone, please pay close attention
04:46Yes, ma'am
04:47Lady Grace never disappoints
04:55Our world's magic comprises of
04:58Fire, water, the wind, and earth
05:02Everything is split between these four elements
05:05Furthermore, each element has its own strengths and weaknesses against the others
05:10So it's important to know all possible elemental affinities
05:13Regardless of whether you're positioned in a combat role or a support role
05:17For example, when fighting a water attribute beast, fire spells are particularly effective
05:24However, trying to take advantage of elemental weaknesses alone
05:28Is not enough to deal with more powerful beasts
05:31In those situations, using a wind spell in coordination with a fire one
05:37Will boost the fire spell's power and assist in defeating your opponent
05:41Did you understand all of that?
05:46Basically, the attribute of your beast determines the path you have to take moving forward
05:51If this were a game, this is the point where you would keep reloading until you got the beast you
05:56wanted the most
06:00Hey, Ana
06:02Consider this a moment
06:03If there was a spell that allowed you to repeat the summoning ritual over and over again
06:08Would you keep doing it until you got a rare beast for familiar?
06:13What? Repeat the ritual?
06:15Why would I do that?
06:17I love this little guy and feel lucky to have him
06:22Shhh
06:26No way!
06:28Huh?
06:28Huh?
06:30It's the Crown Prince Vergil!
06:32And the Guardian Lord of Gooths!
06:34Why would they come to our class?
06:36Yes
06:38Sorry, pay us no mind, Madame Grenin
06:41Please continue with the summoning ritual
06:44We're just here to get a front row seat
06:47We gotta see what sort of magical beast our two little newbies on the student council end up with
06:53Since ours are curious to find out soon
06:56Aaaaaah!
06:59Crown Prince Vergil's beast is a griffon
07:02It has the wind attribute
07:04And Lord Auguste's beast is a garuda
07:07It has the fire attribute
07:10Those are both rare species
07:12And they have way more moda than normal
07:14The members of the student council really are on another level
07:18Hm?
07:19Hm
07:21Funny running into you two here
07:24I take it that Pegasus is Ana's new partner?
07:27Yes, your highness.
07:29That makes sense.
07:31The Pegasus is a more docile beast.
07:34It's easy for them to reflect the talents of their masters.
07:37So it may be the perfect fit for a hard worker such as yourself, Ana.
07:41It's the efforts of the master that can ultimately make or break any sort of beast.
07:45Right, I'll do my very best.
07:48Well, well.
07:49Those two seem to be responding to this quite positively.
07:52Of course, that's good to know.
07:54All right, let's continue.
07:57Grace Overn, you're next.
08:00Pardon, I must go take my turn.
08:02Of course.
08:03Good luck.
08:04Lady Grace, I wish you the very best of luck.
08:08Great. I appreciate it.
08:14Now, place your egg here.
08:17Yes, ma'am.
08:18Hard to believe it's already been a month since then.
08:21I will now hand out the most important item, so everyone please pay very close attention.
08:28After I call your name, please come up to the front one at a time.
08:34The moment has come for you to form a personal contract with a beast.
08:40Once it is complete, your egg will be stored in a subspace for the duration of a month.
08:45And during that time, you will support its growth by supplying it with mana.
08:51Right.
08:57Let's begin.
08:59Let's begin.
08:59Please state your name.
09:03I am Grace Overn.
09:16Then a summoning ritual is held.
09:19And the beast reveals itself to its master for the first time.
09:25I order thee as master of the contract.
09:28Listen and heed my call, and reveal thy true form.
09:33Well, seeing as how the main character that's on everyone's mind has already summoned her beast,
09:38nobody should care much about what kind I end up with.
09:42I'm the villainous, after all.
09:43This should be a breeze.
09:46It's gotta be a fire attribute.
09:48And, like, not just because that's what I have.
09:50Grace will clearly summon a wind attribute beast.
09:53The fact that we are engaged to be married is proof enough of that.
09:56I'd be over the moon if she got the same wind attribute as me.
09:59But at the very least, I hope she can fire because...
10:00I mean, she has the right attribute and intelligence for it.
10:03Come on, fire people.
10:05One can only hold.
10:12Restart until I get a good beast?
10:16No.
10:17That leans somewhat into scum-saving territory.
10:20I don't consider myself to be a hardcore strategist like that.
10:24And, like, even though it's just a video game...
10:28I hate the idea of deleting a beast that was born just for me.
10:31I'd feel sorry for it.
10:34You're completely right, Hinako.
10:38Especially considering this is a tangible world that can't even be reset.
10:42Nothing will surprise your old man.
10:45I promise to cherish whatever beast I get.
10:54Huh?
11:02What is that?
11:04Huh?
11:05Come on, the monophore?
11:07How can I...
11:09Direct culture?
11:11Whose voice is that?
11:15I don't know.
11:16I don't know.
11:54That's a dragon, from the looks of it, right?
11:56It appears so. However, what in the world just happened?
12:01Well, that was a rather odd sight. But let's move right along.
12:06Miss O'Burn's magical beast is...
12:11It's a species of dragon! An ancient dragon!
12:15Whoa, no freaking way! That's a beast so rare, it's legendary!
12:19And as for its attribute...
12:22There are two! Her beast contains both fire and water!
12:29But that's impossible! Every beast should be limited to one elemental attribute!
12:34How can there be two? Not to mention, those are opposing elements!
12:38It's unthinkable for both to coexist inside a single beast!
12:43So this basically means...
12:46Lady Grace is a genius! In every sense!
12:51Look, you can't just slap her with the genius label and call it final.
12:54To be continued after the break.
13:02I am Pinago Okotabayashi!
13:05Born 20 years ago, between an otaku mother and an otaku father!
13:12I am 100% pure and neat!
13:15It all started yesterday.
13:17I was enjoying my latest challenge run in Magical Academy, Love and Peace, when...
13:29Hello! Go for Hinako!
13:32That's right. I'm home at the moment.
13:35Huh?
13:36Dad had an accident?
13:40He seems to have taken a hard hit to the head.
13:43Thankfully, results from our tests have revealed there was no damage to his brain,
13:47and he doesn't seem to have any other significant injuries.
13:50The problem is that he won't wake up for some reason.
13:55His brainwaves indicate that he's in a state close to dreaming.
13:59That's all we know for the moment.
14:02We'll keep him here for now, until we can perform more thorough tests tomorrow.
14:06Now, if you'll please excuse me.
14:28Well, it's great that he didn't get seriously hurt.
14:32I know he'll wake up when we least expect it and go...
14:36Jotaro, you big ol' fool!
14:38All thanks to your meddling, I leave again!
14:42Good grief. Guess you're the real thing.
14:47But in seriousness, Dad is gonna be okay.
14:50I mean, he saved a kid by jumping in front of a truck!
14:54It's just like one of those tokuhiro stories Dad loves!
14:58So there's no way this ends with him in a coma forever!
15:02Yes, of course.
15:03I feel the exact same way.
15:09Alrighty.
15:10I have to stay and fill out the hospital paperwork.
15:13You head back and take care of the house, okay?
15:15Okay! I'll whip us up some dinner, too.
15:18I can't do it.
15:20Okay.
15:27That's weird.
15:28I thought I turned the TV off before I left home.
15:33Uh-oh, that's not good.
15:35The controller's not working.
15:36Maybe the battery's dead?
15:39uh now the remote isn't working what's going on here
15:45hold on this is the scene where anna gets bullied by grace for the first time
15:50or is it the graphics look kind of different
15:58and yet you're here in spite of that how interesting it can only mean one thing
16:05you must have been lovingly raised by great parents who are undoubtedly proud of their
16:10so here's the thing i know that this is probably gonna sound totally bonkers to you
16:22and you're gonna want to lecture me about keeping fantasy separate from reality
16:26but i've analyzed the facts as objectively as possible and there's just one answer
16:30i've concluded that dad's mind is inside of this game
16:34all right i'm convinced that was easy you have no idea my generation read the never-ending
16:40bleep in middle school and we've been exposed to countless isekai stories ever since
16:44never underestimate the otaku power level of a mom talk about reliable
16:48i watched crest of the royal for bleep machine hero what a bleep and even ramoon and four
16:54bleep not to mention rayier bleep fushigi bleep and the 12 king bleep
16:58always trust the speed talk no taku
17:00how could i forget you can't mention isekai without aura battler done bleep it wowed everyone
17:05by being both a mecha and isekai with a story well ahead of its time
17:08we're talking 1983 girls speaking of the 80s there was an excellent ova by the name of lida
17:14the fantastic adventure of bleep have you seen it i highly recommend it
17:18we can use it later
17:19we can go on even further
17:25okay that's enough mom i get it
17:28all right fill me in on the details
17:31what exactly is the situation right now
17:34okay let me explain
17:36for starters my magical academy love and beast game is shown as on
17:40but it won't respond to any of the controls and we can't even turn off the tv it's just stuck
17:48i see that's definitely weird
17:50the good news is although the normal dialogue choices won't pop up
17:55we can still progress the story forward by hitting the a button
17:59oh plus the backlog works as well as the diary option that summarizes the story thus far
18:05do you want to take a look sounds like a good idea let's do it okay so we'll start from
18:12the first
18:12day of school
18:13would you pass on a message to the chef
18:17please tell them it was delicious yes
18:19what is the elegance cheat that does sound like something dad would totally say
18:24in times like this you should divide by nine check out those business skills
18:29definitely giving dad vibes
18:31hooligans best to show or we'll make a stab at giving them a proper education
18:41oh jeez i'm getting secondhand embarrassment from watching this
18:45well you better get used to seeing more of this dear
18:48i'm not sure i can do that
18:50the question is if dad's mind is actually stuck in this video game
18:55then how do we get him back
18:56well i think beating the game would obviously make the most logical sense
19:01of course we can't say for sure that would actually bring him back but
19:05at this point it's really the only option that's available
19:08good point since progressing the story forward is all we can do
19:12you should keep playing the game to see what happens here to go
19:15roger that mom i've got it covered
19:26morning already yeah good morning mom
19:30good morning don't tell me you kept going for the entire night
19:34i've pulled tons of all-nighters playing games i'm a pro
19:39thanks to doing that i've already gotten a whole month into the game's storyline
19:43which would mean that the flow of time between the game and our world is
19:47completely different from each other
19:48but hey now i've made it to the first major event of the game
19:52the beast summoning ritual
19:54how the story unfolds from this point forward changes depending on what beast is
20:00huh um what the heck grace will now summon a beast would you like to lend a hand
20:09holy crap it's giving us a choice up until now we've been totally stuck on a set route
20:14does this mean we can actually influence the story
20:17but what does it mean by asking me to lend a hand
20:20summoning a beast is based on pure luck we shouldn't be able to change anything about it
20:25hey nico i think it's basically asking us if we want to help out dad or not
20:30yeah i guess so
20:35then
20:37there's only one answer
20:58grace and kinsaburo's mana will now be used to create a beast
21:03please combine the two monoforms
21:06combine the monoforms how can i
21:09please use your hands to make direct contact
21:11direct contact
21:14but how do i use it like a touch panel
21:17this thing is just a plain old lcd television
21:48oh this is what i missed

23:35All this talk of monsters hatching from eggs reminds me of that old toy, the Wachimagachi.
23:40Now I simply must know, do beasts require feeding?
23:43They work like the eggs and only need our mana to sustain themselves.
23:46Wonderful, that means no messy cleanup later, right?
23:49I remember coming back after leaving mine alone for too long.
23:52The horror!
23:53Um, Lady Grace?
