What exactly happened yesterday?
Was that really me?
Maybe a dream—
It wasn't a dream!
That was a great transformation!
Flying all over, it was great!
Right, Amu?
But because of you, yesterday...
I like you, my prince!
I'm sorry.
I was rejected by the prince in front of everyone!
What should I do?
Don't mind that! If you fall down once, get—
Be quiet!
Anyway, confessing in front of a crowd doesn't fit my character.
How'd it go?
I don't want to go to class.
Looks like everyone's been talking.
"She's definitely not what we thought."
"Who knew she was so uncool?"
Hinamori.
You were great yesterday!
Being able to confess just like that was amazing!
Knowing that you like the prince makes me feel close to you.
I knew you had a cool character, but you have those feelings too, right?
What's this?
What's this?!
Excuse me.
The guardians' queen's chair, Fujisaki Nadeshiko!
Wonderful! The royal cape looks perfect on her!
But why is she here?
You're Hinamori Amu, right?
Yeah.
After school today, we'll be waiting in the royal garden.
Royal garden?
In addition, I have a message from Hotori.
"I'll tell you about the eggs," he said.
We'll see you after school.
Unbelievable, Hinamori!
You've been invited for tea at the royal garden!
Tea?
Yeah, that's an invitation.
Great!
I don't want to have tea at the royal garden.
But...
I guess I have to return that.
It can't be helped.
Well, I'll get to see the prince again.
Hey, hey, what's this about tea?
D–Dummy, you can't come out!
Don't worry!
One, two, three, four.
Two, two, three, four.
See? It's fine.
Normal people can't see Guardian Charas!
Is that so?
The third-graders are doing the horizontal bar.
I'm bad at that, too.
You all right, Suzuki?
Y–Yeah.
Could someone show Suzuki how it's done?
Hey, fifth-graders, can someone help out?
Hey, how about you, Hinamori?
Eh?
Yeah, yeah! Hinamori should be good at anything!
You're mistaken; I'm horrible at the bar!
Do it, Amu!
Okay! I'm going!
Upperclassman Hinamori?
My body, by itself...
Do it! Do it, Amu! Go, go, Amu! That way, that way, Amu!
W–Well, the dismount was a bit much.
Ran!
If you keep doing as you please, I'll flush you down the toilet!
Everyone was happy, so it's fine!
It's not fine! Changing a person's character at any given moment is annoying!
Amu...
Anyway,
if you understand, get inside.
We've got a problem, Amu!
The blue egg is missing!
No way.
Maybe you dropped it somewhere. We have to look for it!
But my next class is about to start.
Well, let's look for it after school.
After school?
After school today, we'll be waiting in the royal garden.
I have to go to the tea party.
Amu?
Forget it.
Not a single good thing has come from the Guardian Charas.
Actually, there's been nothing but awful feelings.
Amu, that's because—
Anyway,
after we find the blue egg, it's goodbye.
Once you've all been gathered, it'll be time to leave.
In a single word, it would be "carnival"!
Such is true art.
Hinamori, capture the true beauty of me, Yamabuki Saaya, or I won't forgive you.
S–Sure.
I can't show this to her.
Is something the matter?
No!
My drawing skills are too pathetic.
Then just change!
From someone who's unable to draw to someone who can draw anything: character change!
T–This is me ?!
Ran, you did it again!
N–No! I'm only good at sports!
Then who did?
Right there!
I–I have to use the restroom!
Amu, that girl...
Got it. She's the second Guardian Chara, right?
Hold it!
Wait up!
Why are you running?
You're one of Amu's Guardian Charas, too!
I'm Miki, Amu's would-be self,
but she is still confused and unclear.
If Amu doesn't believe in me soon, I'll disappear.
Disappear?
No way.
It's the truth.
If you don't believe in us, we will disappear.
That was your real talent put to use on the horizontal bar,
the strength of your would-be self.
So, please,
believe in us.
I don't really understand Guardian Charas, and they're annoying.
But...
Maybe I can believe in you, just a little.
Amu!
Hey, just a little!
You hurry up, too!
I've been "in the restroom" a long time!
I don't want people to start getting ideas!
Okay!
Seiyo Academy... Looks like a fun place.
The Humpty Lock reacted to that girl.
Ikuto, what's up with that Amu girl?
This is the first I've heard of someone having three Guardian Charas.
Do you really think she might have the embryo?
Maybe so.
It's finally time for the tea party, Amu!
Yeah.
But I'm nervous!
Excuse me.
Wonderful...
Hey, Hinamori!
Welcome to our royal garden.
Why do all the guardians have a Guardian Chara?
Today's tea is a black tea.
The scones are freshly baked.
All right! I love Nadeshiko's scones the most!
Well then, shall we start with the introductions?
Guardians' king's chair, Hotori Tadase. I'm in the fifth grade like you.
And he's my Guardian Chara, Kiseki.
Queen's chair, Fujisaki Nadeshiko. I'm also in the fifth grade.
This girl is Temari.
Ace chair's Yuiki Yaya! I'm in fourth grade, and I love cute things!
And this is Pepe. Pleased to meet you.
Jack's chair, Souma Kukai. Sixth grade.
I'm captain of the soccer club. And this dude is Daichi.
Um, I am—
We know all about you, Hinamori Amu.
You're real bashful. That's cute!
And you're afraid of scary stories, they say.
H–How do you know all that?!
Being aware of all students' personal information is part of a guardian's duties.
More like an invasion of privacy!
And these are your Guardian Charas,
Ran and Miki.
Just what are Guardian Charas, exactly?
Here you go.
A book?
The Heart's Egg?
"There is an egg in the heart of each child."
"It is the heart's egg, unseen by the eye."
"As one grows up, it fades away."
Huh?
A page has been torn out.
That picture book was created by the founding king of the guardians.
The heart's egg...
Doesn't it seem like something familiar?
Yep, everyone holds their own heart's egg.
But, sometimes, the egg wiggles up,
and your other self is able to pop out.
That's basically what a Guardian Chara is.
My other self...
We guardians all have Guardian Charas, our other selves, and recruit new members each generation.
That's why, Hinamori Amu,
we would like you to join the guardians.
Join the guardians? To be with the prince?
The heart's egg...
It usually sleeps peacefully inside each child.
But every so often, the egg reacts.
Burdened by worries, inside you, it darkens.
When that happens, the heart's egg changes into an X Egg.
An X Egg?
When that happens,
your character transformation will come in handy!
None of our members can character transform.
Yaya wants to see the character transformation!
Character transforming? That was an accident!
I have no idea how to do it on my own!
Can we count on you becoming a guardian?
N...
N?
No!
Why not?!
If you're a guardian, you can do all kinds of things!
B–Because
I wouldn't like wearing that royal cape.
"Cape"?
That's all?
It's an important matter!
It goes completely against my fashion rules!
This girl, she's amusing!
You pass!
I said I'm not joining!
No matter what?
I'm sorry!
Amu!
She's great!
Is it really okay to refuse them?
It's fine.
I finally got the class to treat me as an equal.
If I join the guardians, it will cause more misunderstandings.
I want to be normal. Normal.
Your stubborn side is showing.
It was your chance to get close to the prince, though.
But they misunderstood.
There's no way I could have special abilities.
What's wrong?
Darn it, I forgot to give this back.
What to do?
Okay.
That boy?
He's doing his best.
Upperclassman Hinamori!
I'm sorry to be such an embarrassment.
I'm sorry, upperclassman Hinamori.
No need to apologize.
I have no right to be a fan of the "cool and spicy" Hinamori Amu.
What are you talking about?
I mean, I have zero athletic ability.
The other kids tell me I should accept being a wimp.
I don't think I'll ever be able to reach my dreams.
Dreams?
Like what?
I want to be at the top of the school's academics.
Someday, by becoming a charismatic programmer, I would like to be the boss of my own company.
But...
But?
I decided I'd rather not try for that.
What?
That's...
Can it be?
An X Egg?
N–No way!
I'm completely worthless.
Even upperclassman Hinamori thinks I'm pathetic.
I don't think that!
Yes, you do!
Dreams are
useless.
Useless.
Why are they useless?
If you don't even believe in yourself,
your dreams will disappear!
Giving up without even trying...
That's too rash!
What's going on over there?
That light!
Could it be?
Hey, Tadase!
My own heart—
Unlock!
Character transformation— Amulet Heart!
N–No way.
I changed again!
Amazing.
Amazing character transformation!
Useless!
Useless. Useless!
Amu, are you okay? You can do it!
I'm doing it, but...
Do you feel it?
There's a powerful feeling building up!
It really is.
The power is...
Negative Heart,
lock on!
Open Heart!
Useless!
The X Egg was
returned to normal.
That's great, Amu!
What was that?
Something came out!
I don't believe it!
But you were cool.
Um, what was I...
Upperclassman Hinamori.
I'll say it only once: I don't think that way.
You're definitely a small fry, but I never thought you were pathetic!
Upperclassman Hinamori?
I'm touched! I feel it! Your spicy power certainly reached out to me!
My heart is burning. I feel like I can do anything!
I'll show you! I'll be at the top of the school and become a charismatic programmer with my own company!
Even more than that...
Upperclassman Hinamori is the person I want to get!
Goodbye! Have a nice day! My name is...
Oh, no! That was too much.
Hey, Hinamori!
Guardians!
Don't tell me... You were watching?
Right on!
That's nice, character transforming!
Hinamori, you're definitely...
You've got it wrong! It was just an accident, a complete mistake!
That wasn't me!
Embarrassed, I think.
Embarrassed, indeed.
E–E–Excuse me!
She's gone, she's gone!
See you again!
She'll definitely be the new girl.
What should we do, Fujisaki?
Of course, we won't let her get away from the guardians.
Today was really fun!
Performing a character transformation with Amu is the best feeling, right?
N–Not really...
So un-cute.
Same to you!
Stubborn!
Bellybutton lint!
Hey!
Hold it. Wait!
This way, this way!
Miki!
Amu, this way!
Now you, too?!
She's a stubborn, disobedient, small fry Chara, but...
Maybe that type isn't too bad, after all.
I'll only say this once:
that was definitely not me!
That strange light coming out couldn't have happened!
Jeez, Open Heart is Amu's ability!
Stop talking nonsense!
It seems like a lot of fun!
I want to hurry and be friends!
Who was that?
Maybe...
The third Guardian Chara?!
Next time on Shugo Chara:
Flaky and Fluffy, Leave it to Su!
Once again...
A lot of excitement!
Give me a break!
