episode 7

(The episode opens with Akehiro walking past a bunch of people)

Akehiro (narrating): My name is Akehiro, I am a robot that can use magic, I was designed to be a male robot, but I always feel disappointed to be given that label

(Akehiro is shown eating screws that shaped like regular foods)

(Akehiro looks across the lunch table and sees Clay talking to a bunch of girls)

(Clay winks at Akehiro)

(Akehiro waves at Clay)

(Clay continues talking to his friends)

(The screen switches to Akehiro reading a book)

Akehiro (narrating): I have read about how I was feeling and it seems I am lost

(Akehiro is running through the grass and looks at the sky)

Akehiro (narrating) (looking at the sky): Why do I feel lost? It's because I feel distant from everybody

(Akehiro is standing by a locker and people are passing him and not paying any attention to him)

(Akehiro opens his locker)

(The locker shows pictures of dresses and magical girls)

A voice: So, you like girly stuff?

(Akehiro closes his locker and runs away)

(Akehiro is in a club room and breathing heavily)

Akehiro: I got to get rid of those pictures (reveals a small picture of a baseball high school girl)

A voice: Oh! Aozora Midori, nice

(Akehiro backs up and sees Clay wearing a red dress, black jacket, and boots)

A voice: Clay, I told you don't move.

Clay: Sorry

(Akehiro also notices a girl who has long brown hair, brown skin, wearing a teal shirt, brown skirt, white apron, and shoes named Toshimi)

Akehiro: Am I interrupting?

Toshimi: No, in fact, can you hold Clay's hand?

Akehiro: Okay

(Akehiro takes Clay's hand)

Toshimi: Takes his other hand as well, please

(Akehiro takes Clay's other hand)

Toshimi (looks at the canvas): Clay move your right and keep holding Akehiro's hands.

Clay (smiles): Okay (moves to his right)

Toshimi: Perfect, don't move.

(Toshimi starts painting Clay and Akehiro)

Akehiro: Isn't it weird?

Clay (looks confused): Weird?

Akehiro: Dressing like a girl

Clay: Oh no, I do this all the time

Toshimi (painting on the canvas): It's true, and also don't move too much

(The screen switches to Toshimi showing her painting of Clay and Akehiro dancing in a ballroom)

Akehiro: Wow, you are an amazing artist

Toshimi (blushes): Awww! Thank you,and thanks Clay

Clay: You know I will always be available to model for you

Toshimi: You are the best (kisses Clay on the cheek) (walks to the door) Don't be late for class (walks out of the door)

Clay: I won't, I probably (starts to take off his dress) should change out of this outfit, this is more runway than a go to class outfit.

(Akehiro closes the door)

(Clay hangs his dress)

(Akehiro blushes and covers his face)

Clay: Sorry, next time I should warn you.m

(Clay puts on white jacket with polar bears, peach shirt, white pants with polar bears, and shoes)

Clay: You can look now

(Akehiro moves his hand from his eyes and looks at Clay's outfit)

Clay: How do I look? I normally get advice from girls, but I'll make an exception for you

Akehiro: Your outfit is beautiful or is that rude to say?

Clay: No, it's fine, that's the kind of compliment I needed (walks out of the room) (reappears) I hope we meet again.

Akehiro: Me too

(Clay runs off)

Akehiro: Oh no, I'll be late for class too (runs out of the art room)

(The screen switches to Akehiro looking at dresses that are on display)

Akehiro: I have to stop doing this (was about to walk away)

(A flashback forms Akehiro and a hand is on his shoulder)

A voice: You must be the most perfect robot you can be, and means no errors, but you can still enjoy human things

Akehiro: Really!

A voice: Really

(Another flashback forms showing Akehiro with his hand hooked to the computer)

Akehiro (looking at the ceiling): Boys seem to have made many mistakes throughout history, yet so have women, but men seem to have made more.

Akehiro (narrating): That was the start of my road of collecting items that are normally used by women

(The screen shows lipstick, mascara, pictures of models, a dresser, a bed with a pink blanket, a poster of Barbie, and a closet)

Akehiro: Unfortunately, I still bought the girly stuff

(The flashback ends)

(The screen shows Akehiro watching Clay wearing a medieval dress with his friends and laughing)

Akehiro (thought): How can he dress like that and act normal?

A girl: He is so cool

A boy: I don't get it

Another girl: What's not to get? He doesn't care about other people's opinions and having fun.

Another boy: Hmmm

Akehiro: Maybe

(The screen switches to Akehiro taking Clay to an empty classroom)

Akehiro: What is your deal?

Clay (looking confused): Pardon?

Akehiro: Why do you act like this? Dress like that.

Clay: Oh, I'm gender fluid, I dress whether it look like normal boy clothes or girly clothes, I love wearing them all.

Akehiro: That is a thing.

Clay: You are a robot and you don't know that.

Akehiro: I wasn't programmed to be a super robot, just average.

Clay: Then, can you look up the LGBTQ+ community?

(Akehiro's pupils turn into squiggly lines and he is making a beeping sound)

Clay (looked concerned): Are you okay?

Akehiro (in a robotic voice): analyzing the LGBTQ+ community take time, and my system is functioning properly.

Clay: Oh! Which one are you on?

Akehiro: Transgender, a very interesting concept, you humans make new concepts way more crazy, then it actually is.

Clay: That is very true

(The screen switches to Akehiro wearing a black lolita, while looking at the mirror)

(Clay smiles at Aki)

Akiehiro I can't go out there like this.

Clay: If you don't face your fears, you'll be lying to yourself for the rest of your life and that's not healthy.

Akehiro: You are right, I have analyzed this situation a bunch of times and I know what will happen.

Clay: Then, you analyzed that I will stand by your side.

Akehiro: I did, indeed.

Clay (takes Akehiro's hand): Then, tell me who you are.

Akehiro: I am Aki, a female robot and I will not hide my true self.

Clay: That's more like this

(The episode ends with Clay and Aki walking together in the hallway)
