[The quote which appears on the cover of each Air visual novel release. The text was always presented in this fashion.]
The days which are wrapped in the scene of summer and to pass gently
An encounter with the girls repeated in the sunlight
Summer continues to where as well
She is waiting in the air
[A disembodied female voice speak while a view of the sky is shown.]
VVoice
My child, listen carefully. The story that I'm about to tell you is very important. It is a long, long story of a journey that will be passed down from parent to child endlessly, starting now.
[Yukito meets Misuzu for the first time.]
[In thought] Who is this person?
MMisuzu
Are you alone? [Yukito tries to ignore her, but Misuzu moves closer.] It's hot, isn't it?
[In thought] What is it? Why are you here? Is it money? If it is, then I have none.
MMisuzu
Are you thirsty? I'll buy a drink. [Misuzu runs off to buy a drink, and when she's coming back, she trips, hitting her face on the ground. She comes back and hands him the drink.] Here.
MMisuzu
G-Gao... [Yukito takes a drink of the peach juice, but hates the taste and starts coughing.]
[In thought, reading the juice label.] Gooey Concentrated Peach Flavored. [Yukito squeezes out the rest of the juice.]
MMisuzu
[Trying to stop him from wasting the juice.] Why did you do that?
You're teasing me, aren't you?
MMisuzu
That's not true. This drink is good. [Misuzu takes a drink of the juice, enjoying its taste.]
[Yukito meets Kano for the first time. Yukito has just dropped into a creak trying to catch his doll that a dog, named Potato, stole.]
KKano
What are you doing?
A mysterious extraterrestrial creature stole my doll and ran away.
PPotato
[Potato jumps up next to Kano on the bridges' edge.] Piko!
KKanon
You mean him? Potato isn't an extraterrestrial creature. He's a wild dog from my neighborhood.
That thing was actually a dog?
PPotato
Piko pikopiko. [Kano nods in agreement.] Pikopiko pikopikopiko pikori. [Kano continues to agree.]
KKano
Oh, I see. I'm sorry for the trouble we've caused you.
KKano
That's because Potato took your doll and ran all the way here. Apparently, he wanted to play with you.
You understand what he's saying?
KKano
Yeah, he's my friend. Right, Potato?
[Gets up and walks to dry land.] It seems there are worlds on this planet that I don't know. Sorry. [Noticing a bright yellow ribbon tied around Kano's right wrist.] Are you...hurt?
KKano
Oh, this? Um, well...No, I'm still keeping that a secret. I'm Kirishima Kano. You are?
KKano
Are you free by any chance?
KKano
All right! I'll name you Free Free Planeting Number Two!
KKano
Me. Potato is Number Three.
What does a Free Free Planeting do?
KKano
You're just free. That's the fate of a Free Free Planeting. Potato, we're free, right?
[They walk a little farther, and then Kano stops to inform Yukito she has to leave.]
KKano
I have to go to school now, so we must part here. [Kano runs off.]
[Calling after her.] Aren't you a Free Free Planeting?
KKano
[Stops and turns around.] You actually believed something like that? You're such a kid! See you! [Kano turns and starts to run off again.]
Are all the one's wearing that uniform weird or something? [Yukito starts to walk off, but is stopped when he hears Kano.]
KKano
Have you ever wondered what you could do if you could use magical powers?
KKano
[Small laugh.] You look surprised. See you! [Kano turns and runs off again.]
