## Plot

At Canterlot Castle, Pinkie Pie was healed by Potion Nova and the Mane Six, the Wild Siders and the Sailor Sisters are glad she was all okay. However, Ponyville was still flooded with water and chaos magic. Doris meets the princesses that the mixture of Wild Side magic, the cosmic wish energy and Wojira can cause total chaos, and the only way is to merge the Endless Sea. The Ninja, the Young Ninja, Benthomaar, Gleam, Nyanko, Maya, Hayal, Starlight Glimmer, Miyu, Delta, the nymphlings, Akita and Spike came and reveal to Doris about the precious magic item that she obtained. She asked her daughter to extract her dream pearl with a trident. Worried, Miyu uses her Shell Trident and extracts Doris' dream pearl, which is revealed to be the Crystal Dream Pearl. She explained to them that the Crystal Dream Pearl, along with the silver and the golden pearls, are the only kind of magic that merge with the Endless Sea. She also explained that Nya and Caralisa are also special dream pearl owners but their magic was unable to merge with the ocean completely. Ultra Sailor Sky pleads the team to clear up the water and chaos magic, while finding Jay and Nya.

Night falls and day slowly rises. Jay wheezes softly while Nya looks on. Having not slept, she glances at the others who have dozed off before making her move. She kisses Jay goodbye and leaves quietly. Outside, tears fall down her face as she looks back and mouths “I love you”. She dives underwater and performs spinjitzu. As she begins to merge with the sea, the water in Jay’s lungs regurgitates. The scene wakes up the ninja to which they soon realize what Nya is trying to do and they sans Jay rush out to stop her. They are too late though as Nya completes the transformation. She glances at her new self and swims over to Jay, who is watching her. They share a moment before she blasts off to face Wojira. The rest of the team race outside and despite Wu’s call, Nya swims away. Jay catches up to them and proclaims that he will help Nya defeat Wojira. The rest of the team then decides that they will come as well. Luckily for them, the use their new weapons and clear out chaos magic and all the water. Unwillingly, when more water came gushing out, Doris holds on by absorbing water into her hands, exploding into waves. Shocked by Miyu, Doris also completes the transformation as the Crystal Dream Pearl reacts with the ocean.

In the Commissioner’s office, Kalmaar and his guards corner the Commissioner and Jimmy. He demands for the ninja’s location but the Commissioner refuses to speak. Kalmaar is about to zap him when Wojira alerts him of something approaching. They go to check out what it is and Kalmaar realizes it is the girl. Nya rises out of the sea and tells him her name isn’t *girl*, but *Nya*. She brings out an unconscious Caralisa stated that she was the only one being the true ninja, along with herself, to show how wonderful the world it was. Doris forced Nya to get down, but she refuses, never letting Caralisa to go away into the heavens. As both tears reacted from array of flashbacks, the Golden Dream Pearl got spat out by Wojira and resurrects Caralisa. Their dream pearls react with all the three, which allow Caralisa to complete her transformation as well. Nya and Caralisa then guarantee him that he will wish that he had never met them in the first place before leaping into battle.

### Friendship 101

**Damien**: Hi. In case you have missed it, Caralisa regained consciousness and she and Nya are already in their merged state.

**Nya**: Sometimes, life can be overwhelmed when there are sudden distress in various factors. And when it comes to suicide, they thought they will end their lives instantly.

**Lloyd**: Mental health is very important for most of us. If you are depressed or feeling a sudden trauma, there is always help available.

**Jay**: Remember, everyone is here to help. All people can be at risk of suicide, especially those who are unable to cope due to sensitive reasons such as bullying, loss of the loved one or when you are having substance abuse without consent.

**Caralisa**: Warning signs of suicide can allow individuals to direct people who may be considering suicide to get help. If you about to endanger yourself that you want to die, you can get help immediately with a school counselor and your trusted adult.

**Nya**: That's why we want to stay with you. Encourage those who have suicide thoughts by thinking positively and use quotes such as "This too shall pass" or "I am ready." That way, you will feel positive without thinking about whether to die or not.

**Lloyd**: Otherwise, you can call suicide prevention hotlines to seek help, it is normal to express feelings when you realized that you cannot cope with something that was uncomfortable. You can play your part to prevent suicide problems in the future.

**Nya**: Remember, focus on the positive note, and do not let negativity take over. Hope to see you soon.

## Trivia

* **Narrator**: The Ninja
* This episode was first broadcast in the UK on May 18, 2021.
* A sneak peek of the episode featuring Nya yelling "I love you" is shown on Tiny Pop YouTube Channel on May 17, 2021.
* The episode title is a reference to both an episode and a song in *Love Live! Sunshine!!*, sung by Saint Aqours Snow.
* Nya's "I love you" was previously hinted by Tommy Andreasen and Bragi Schut: referring to a fan's observation that Nya had not yet told Jay she loves him, Andreasen asked Schut if he wanted to "fix this" as he was finishing the scripts, and Schut stated "I'm on it!".
	+ Andreasen also told a fan to "Keep watching" when asked about this subject.
* By becoming one with the sea, Nya fulfills what told herself in "Crusaders of the Lost Mark," "Become the water". A similar motto, "BE WATER", was used on her movie counterpart's poster.
* Caralisa is revealed to be Nya's student, long before her admission in "The Mask of Deception - Part I."
* Like how all the three amulets create total chaos, the three dream pearls combine together to complete their transformations of the three, known as the Light of Hope effect.

## Continuity

* This is the first episode since "The Fate of Lloyd" where Caralisa is voiced by Dewyn Dalton, albeit she was in a flashback.
* When Cole says that they might ask Vania for help, Zane answers that their communicators do not have that range. This implies that there are technological devices in Shintaro (aside from their wings), although they have not yet been seen.
* Doris is revealed to have her Crystal Dream Pearl, which is the strongest pearl of them all.
* Several flashbacks during Nya attempted to know who she was with Caralisa:
	+ Nya got her Silver Dream Pearl extracted in "Showtime Showdown".
	+ Nya, Caralisa, Rarity, Applejack, Megan and Molly are in Old Equestria in "The Great Cowgirl Hat Robbery".
	+ Nya and Caralisa fighting off Joyce in "Portal Combat".
	+ Nya and Caralisa rescued Gleam inside the whale in "Eat or Be Eaten".
	+ The Ninja and the Mane Six cleared out chaos magic in "Wild Heartbeats".
	+ Caralisa getting killed by Kalmaar in "Cosmic Catastrophe".
* This is the third episode where the Ninja narrated the episode title. The first is "Nice to Meet You, Kaya" and the second is "Wild Heartbeats".
	+ This episode and the former also show Wild Heartbeats song, albeit having different lyrics.
