The Exclamation of Our Meeting [01]

Cuthfleda: A human? What kind of creature is a human?

Griselda Reginhard: I've only ever heard of them in fairy tales, but I hear they have really long necks.

Cuthfleda: Really?

Griselda Reginhard: They have fur all over their bodies, walk on four legs, and have really beady eyes.

Cuthfleda: Sounds terrifying!

The First Semicolon [02]

Naoya Tohara: The milk tea I had back at the estate was really warm, and I felt like it was warming my heart. I think the princess needs something like that. I still can't find the milk for it, though.

Ampersand of the Party [04]

Elíka Drakul Draupnils: I don't believe it!

Astarotte Ygvar: It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. I've graduated from milk. You wouldn't even recognize me!

Quotation of Crossing [05]

Naoya Tohara: Hey! Don't teach her something like that!

Naoya Tohara: Is this the riddle?

[He ponders the "feeling of freedom"]

Asuha Tohara: I got it! It's panties!

Naoya Tohara: That's great, Asuha! Asuha? W-wait, Asuha!

Asuha Tohara: [puts them into the mail slot] There we go!

Naoya Tohara: That can't be it …

Rabbit Door Hanger: This is … underwear?

Asuha Tohara: Yeah, when you take off your panties, your heart's released, and you feel free!

Rabbit Door Hanger: I see … very well.

[The door opens]

Judit Snorrevík: Huh?

Astarotte Ygvar: Start preparing right away.

An Asterisk Beyond the Sky [12]

Ingrid Sorveig Sorgríms: I have learned a great deal from someone who came from another realm. I have learned that the world is not something that only exists within our minds, but rather the ground that lies under our feet. Even if the way we look or the language we use is different, all the worlds are connected, and we can understand each other. What we can gain by connecting the worlds through these gates is more irreplaceable than anything, more wonderful than anything.
