Itsuki and Mahiru performed their first Love Ritual. A "Star Child" that will be able to cleanse the Impurity was born, as they bonded through physical contact. Later, they were transferred to "Hoshigami Academy," where the "maidens of the 12 constellations," who will perform the Love Rituals with Itsuki, were gathered. Itsuki starts to bond with one of the maidens, Ruka, at the cherry blossom viewing welcome party.
There are 12 of them, 
just like the constellations,
،هنالك اثنتا عشرة منهنّ
،بنفس عدد الأبراج
Es gibt genau zwölf an der Zahl,
genau wie es Sternzeichen gibt.
Hay 12, igual que las constelaciones,
Hay 12, igual que las constelaciones,
Il y en a un par Prêtresse,
ils peuvent absorber les Impuretés.
Ne esistono 12, come le Costellazioni,
Existem 12, assim como as constelações,
Их двенадцать, как и созвездий,
