Background[]

This series is the sequel to The Fantastic Garden.

The story occurs in a strange city known as Stella that grants the wishes of the girls who live there, erasing their sorrowful memories and reality. Though they get what they want, the question is if it will really make them happy, and how long will they try to run away from the truth. While this occurs, a mysterious and obscure character tries to make them all realize the harsh truth, generally with dreadful results, as the inhabitants usually can't cope with it...

In this song, Lost Girl is upset because the boy she was in love with "ran away," so she searches all over an unfamiliar town to look for him. Once she reaches the railroad crossing, however, she remembers the truth: the boy died. She then stands on the train tracks and commits suicide, not wanting to live without him.

This song is about a girl who enters the religious life as a nun. She listens to the confessions of the citizens, but really doesn't understand how she got her job, nor does she take it seriously. She is bored with her life and wants to make it exciting, so by the advice of her computer guide, she becomes an internet idol. When her fans begin to turn against her, she threatens to do something about it with a knife - only she begins to remember that she was an internet idol once before, and had been cutting her wrists in response to fan negativity. She returns to the church and is about to cut her wrists, but is stopped by a young priest and accidentally stabs him. Unable to do anything, she vows to return to her life as a nun and continue apologizing to God for her crimes.

"You all have no interest in 'reality', do you?"
.

We are introduced to Dr. Realist, Rho, and Lambda, the two from ANTI THE∞HOLiC. Dr. Realist is a strange gentleman who hates the people within the city for not facing reality and escaping into the city's illusions. He attempts by any means necessary to make the citizens realize the truth. However, the results generally don't end well as the different candidates can't stand the reality. (Note: this song takes place after Childish Girl, but was posted before its official release)

Formerly called "Lost Girl and the Meteor Gentleman," this track is more of a brief dialogue than a song. At the end of Runaway Boy and The Lost Girl, Lost Girl meets Dr. Realist who asks her what's the matter. She replies that she's looking for her boyfriend, but he explains that who she's looking for isn't there and will lead her to what she had lost, before arriving at the railway.

A childish girl who is sick of growing up wishes to forget the adult world and become a carefree child again. The city grants her wish, and after gaining access to the core of the city, she returns to being a child. After a "shooting star" grants her and her friends' wish to have something to play, they begin to use the junk received to build a paradise for the kids. They do this without realizing that they were repeating the system and world of the adults. In the end, while trying to return to her childish world, she ends up jumping into a sewer that was under construction. While in parallel, Rho and Lambda contemplate how the events unfold while commenting about them.

A girl wakes up in a strange Miniature Garden with a pair of floating dice. She proceeds to play the game with these dice as her guide. However she finds herself struggling to walk, as she hasn't used her legs in a long time. Despite this, she continues on. There's so much to explore and discover, but the dice urge her on to the goal, only to discover at the very end that it is her own bed. Realizing it was just a game, and that she needs to go to sleep, she reluctantly bids the Miniature Garden good night, saying she'll come back tomorrow to play some more.

It is commonly interpreted that the girl had some kind of disease, that in the end killed her.

Watching Lost Girl and her boyfriend from afar is one of Lost Girl's closest friends. She's is highly jealous of her friend's boyfriend, and longs to be Lost Girl's lover. Silently hanging on to her affections for years, she is invited into a fantasy world by Stella, where she becomes a boy, in place of Lost Girl's boyfriend. At the end of the day, this is not reality, and the happiness slowly turns into a sense of discomfort and unease. While on a date, on their way to a photo-booth to take a picture together, the topic of railroad crossings dividing the world comes up for a brief moment. Looking at the photo together, she has been replaced with a girl in the same school uniform, leaving the two confused. At last the girl is hit with the memories of their former life, with one question remaining. Whether they should stay in this world, or return to reality, worrying both for their own happiness, and the happiness of this world’s girl. After much conflict, she concludes that as this world is a fantasy, it will vanish with her departmental, and with that takes off towards the railroads.

Despite their remaining love of both the illusion and their friend, they cross over, missing their lovers final words as their worlds divide. Reawakening to find themselves back in class. Deciding that it’s best to wish for the couple's happiness. The Stella System encounters an error. The many daisies in the PV are referencing the tradition of picking flower petals off of a flower and with each one saying "He/She loves me" or "He/She loves me not." Whichever petal is the last one, and whatever saying you are on, it is decided whether the person loves you back or not.
