Chapter 466
(Now we can be sure that this boy is indeed my cousin who has lost his memory, right?)
(This was already clearly stated in the opening sequence!)
(Hurry! Little Red, hurry! Don't let him get away!!)
(Little Red has won a great victory! Xiao Chun is going to cry her eyes out.)
(Murong ·Poor· Xiao Chun)
Xiao Chun: "..."
As Aurora on the Sky Screen was about to reunite with Fang Ming, Xiao Chun's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
She glanced at the red-haired girl beside her with an unfriendly expression, and her expression turned even uglier when she saw the girl's smug look.
Damn it!!
What are you doing in the Sky Screen?! How did this little dwarf get there first?!
Hurry up and get moving!! Come to Dongdu!! Don't let this shorty and the old man be together!!!
Xiao Chun was screaming wildly inside, but remained outwardly calm.
She looked at Fang Ming again, trying to hug the real Fang Ming in her arms for comfort.
To Xiao Chun's surprise, Fang Ming had already prepared and ran to the other side, where he watched the Sky Screen peacefully while being fed by Xiao Qiu.
Xiao Chun: "..."
Well... how should I put it...
It seems that ever since he subjected someone to the "Sister Punishment" half a year ago, this young boy Ming has become increasingly adept at using his boyish identity to seek advantages.
Although it's a bit shameless...
But Fang Ming calmly accepted being fed, was also so cute!
Got it. I'll prepare Fang Ming's favorite food after this episode ends! Although she's behind the little dwarf in the Sky Screen, in reality... Murong Xiaochun will never lose!
A fierce fighting spirit ignited in Xiao Chun's eyes.
Aurora was running, and she swore she had never run so fast in her life.
Even so, Aurora felt she was running far too slowly, and time seemed to be flowing by far too slowly.
Hurry! Hurry up! Otherwise, the old man will disappear again!
With those thoughts in mind, Aurora arrived at the takoyaki stall in an instant, like a gust of wind.
The silver-haired boy had just received the takoyaki from the stall owner when he felt a gust of wind beside him and turned to look at the red-haired girl in surprise.
The two locked eyes.
The boy saw excitement, joy, and sorrow in the girl's eyes.
The girl also saw the confusion, bewilderment, and doubt in the boy's eyes.
The two stared at each other for a while, and just as the girl was about to speak, the boy's words extinguished her Passion as if doused with cold water.
"Um... this lady from another district? If you want some... you can have some... although this is the last one..."
Seeing the red-haired girl running so fast, the boy assumed she was after the last serving of takoyaki.
He hesitated slightly as he handed the takoyaki to the girl, looking as if he had made a very important decision.
The boy's attitude stunned the girl.
Aurora stared intently at the boy before her, and asked in a daze:
"You... you don't remember me?"
"?"
The boy tilted his head again, his big eyes filled with confusion.
"Snow!" Just as the boy and girl were exchanging glances, a woman's voice called out from afar.
A gray-haired woman wearing a brown coat and a white wool sweater walked towards the two of them.
She walked over and asked the boy, "Didn't you say you were going to buy food for Ayaka? And who is this...?"
"The lady I don't recognize seems to be here to buy takoyaki as well."
The boy turned to the woman and said.
The phrase "unfamiliar sister" made Aurora feel breathless. She stared at the other woman's face, which was extremely similar to Fang Ming's when he was young, and it took a lot of effort to look away.
"I'm... I'm sorry, I mistook you for someone else...!"
As she spoke, she turned and ran away, looking quite disheveled.
The gray-haired woman and the silver-haired boy stared at her retreating figure strangely, but neither of them chased after her.
Aurora didn't know how long she ran, until she reached a deserted alley where she finally stopped, panting heavily.
"Did I... mistake someone for someone else...?"
Aurora murmured to herself.
If the silver-haired boy from earlier really was Fang Ming, then there's no reason for him not to acknowledge Aurora.
Moreover, the bewilderment and confusion in the other person's eyes didn't seem fake.
So... did Aurora really mistake someone for someone else?
Amidst Aurora's bewildered exclamation, the prelude to the music began.
The ending theme of the first episode of the second season of the spin-off is playing now!

Thanks to 'Qian×Zhe' for the spicy strip reward, and thanks to 'Houyou Jichang' for the salted fish spike reward~
Also, I almost forgot about the recommended songs in the side story.
OP recommends <かたち> (Shape) Singer: Riko Yasumina
ED Recommendation: <Metamorphosis Rebirth> or <Metamorphosis Bowtie> Artist: MORE MORE JUMP!
One last thing.
It's Chinese New Year now, and I'll definitely be going back to my hometown for the holidays. I'll be busy with a lot of things, both before and after the holidays... so I probably won't have much time to write.
So, starting tomorrow, until I return around the sixth or seventh day of the Lunar New Year, there will only be two chapters updated each day, and sometimes it might even be just one chapter...
The normal update schedule should resume around the 24th or 25th.
Please bear with me~
Also, I wish everyone a Happy New Year in advance!

Volume 5 Side Story <Magic Mystery> Season 2: Chapter 501 Serial Broadcast and the Stalker Aurora
(Aurora! Be confident!! That's your cousin!!)
(No, normally speaking, no one would imagine that a dead person could come back to life as a child, right?)
(Reincarnation?)
(If it really is reincarnation, my cousin's reincarnation age should only be one and a half years old now.)
(It's just a kid www)
(Don't call it a child, it's practically a baby!)
(Aurora, don't go down the path of crime! www)
(No, you're focusing on the wrong thing. Can't you see Aurora is very sad right now!)
(Is it okay?)
(It's okay, now that we've met, we'll definitely be able to recognize each other in the future!)
(Are you really sure? I don't think so...)
(Alright, look at the ending theme! It's really good!)
The ending sequence's visuals, compared to the darker visuals of the main series, still retain a children's style.
Upbeat music, bright illustrations.
The illustration depicts Magical Girls running around in their own Magical Girls, and Sheep Baa-Baa acting as a mascot among them.
This created a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere for the ending theme.
Judging from the ending theme alone, one might think this is a lighthearted and Healing anime series that focuses on cuteness.
The visuals from the ending theme alone dispelled much of the sadness Aurora felt earlier because she hadn't recognized Fang Ming (presumably).
Of course, if the spin-off season two also involves sacrifices or something... then this ending theme can definitely be called an ending theme fraud.
There was even a bonus segment of over a minute after the ending credits.
The content of the Easter egg is quite different in style from the main film.
Inside the bright metal laboratory, a man in a white lab coat, with his back to the camera, sits on a chair in front of the lab bench, holding a freshly brewed hot coffee.
He held the coffee in both hands, leaned back comfortably in his chair, stared straight ahead, and murmured to himself:
"It seems the recent 'urban legends' are no longer putting any pressure on the Magical Girls of this city, so... let's speed things up a bit."
As he spoke, the camera panned upwards, revealing countless incubation tanks filled with all sorts of strange individuals.
And this person's appearance also appeared in the shot.
This is a blond, blue-eyed white man, dressed almost exactly like the villainous doctor in traditional movies.
And this person is also very familiar to the audience.
It's the disgusting Dr. Avery who appeared in the first season of the spin-off and played the final boss!
End of episode one!
(It really was him!! He's not dead!!)
(Tsk, good people don't live long, but evil people live for a thousand years.)
(I knew the enemy in the spin-off would be the Aurora Society, but bringing back the boss from the first part for a limited time seems a bit unoriginal, doesn't it?)
(Is it possible that Avery himself didn't die in the first movie?)
(Um... when I watched the first spin-off, I felt that Avery was weird, not like a normal person. But if he's a clone, then it makes sense.)
(I don't care about any of that, Little Red! Reiko! Ayaka!! You guys do your best!! Kill this disgusting doctor!! Don't let him come out and disgust people anymore!!)
(Disgusting PhD wwwww)
(It's really disgusting www)
The first episode of the second season of the spin-off ends here.
The appearance of 'Dr. Disgusting' Avery in the post-credits scene of the first episode did not surprise the Magical Girls.
Because everyone is well aware that the problem of the Aurora Society in the Sky Screen has not yet been completely solved.
Avery's true form has never appeared.
He has the potential to reappear, and is very likely to become the main antagonist in the spin-off.
This is something everyone had suspected beforehand.
So when Avery appeared, no one was too surprised.
But what surprised everyone even more was something else...
"The Sky Screen... hasn't darkened yet...!"
Yu Muqiu, who had been gazing at the sky, pointed to the curtain in the sky and said in surprise.
Fang Ming and the others were taken aback and looked up at the same time.
Just as Xiao Qiu predicted, the Sky Screen didn't darken; instead, it started playing the second episode again!
Fang Ming: "???"
What's going on!?
