Strawberry Panic episodes

Nagisa Aoi transfers to St. Miator Girl's Academy and gets acquainted with the school and fellow students.

Tamao writes a poem and recites it at the Literature Club. Nagisa inadvertently meets up with Shizuma multiple times and has some interesting encounters. Also, the Etoile ignores her school duties to do what she wants.

Nagisa is shown around the Strawberry Dorms by Tamao and two of their classmates. After accidentally interrupting a student council meeting, Chikaru Minamoto explained the three-school system and some internal politics. Shizuma continues to ignore her Etoile duties. When Nagisa hears that Shizuma is going to skip a ceremony for the first years she goes off to confront her.

In the past, Amane Ōtori comes back from a horseback-riding competition and is greeted by the students from Spica, the school she attends. Hikari and the other Saintly Chorus members perform for Amane. Hikari messes up and is very flustered. The next dawn she sings the song that she messed up at and Amane and Hikari devolop a relationship.

Select first years attending Miator become room-temps for older students. One such student, Chiyo, becomes the room-temp for Nagisa and Tamao.

Nagisa tries to find a club she would like to join, but she's not interested in any of them. Later, she discovers the Etoile's private greenhouse and helps with the flowers.

As Hikari and Amane's relationship progresses, Shion tries to convince Amane to run for the position of Etoile in the next election. However, unknown to Shion, Kaname and Momomi work out a different plan involving Hikari.

Nagisa offers her favorite umbrella to Kagome but does not give her name. Later, Kagome gets help from Chikaru and her friends and they start to investigate the mystery, trying to find out who gave Kagome the umbrella. Meanwhile, Tamao tries desperately to fulfill her fantasy of walking under an umbrella together with Nagisa.

The "Seven mysteries" of the Strawberry Dorms are mentioned. Nagisa and Tamao start to investigate the first mystery: "The Girl of the Hallway", despite Nagisa's terrible fear of the supernatural.

Nagisa starts to prepare for the mid-year exams by getting tutored by Shizuma in the French language. Nagisa also studies very much on her own with the French language and all other courses she is taking. In the end she passed.

Nagisa, accompanied by most of her friends, go on a short trip to the beach during "summer school". While there, everyone finds their own ways of having fun with each other and they even get to participate in a test of courage later on. Meanwhile, Nagisa is just starting to discover just how much she misses Shizuma.

The month-long summer holidays have started and most of the students residing in the Strawberry Dorms are going home. This leaves Nagisa, Shizuma and a couple of others left behind. Without the interference of other students, Shizuma makes her move on Nagisa.

Hikari finally gets a chance to be on a "date" with Amane. However, Kaname and Momomi again try to tear apart the new bond between them for Spica's sake at the Etoile position. In the midsts of all this, Yaya's feelings for Hikari grow even stronger and she eventually vents them by kissing and inappropriately fondling a shocked Hikari.

Yaya's incident with Hikari causes her to fear that she has lost Hikari forever. An effort by Nagisa and Tamao allows them a reconciliation and another chance at being best friends forever.

Everybody at the Strawberry Dorms is pitching in for the two plays in Astraea's Drama Festival. The main play, Carmen, is the focus of everyone's attention as everyone awaits the announcement of who is to be cast as the lead roles. The second play will be Romeo and Juliet, prompting a furious rock-paper-scissors and thumb war tournament between the second-years for the role of Romeo. Tamao is asked to write the script for the performance of Carmen.

While everyone is still preparing for the show, there seems to be some internal struggling concerning Kaname and Momomi with the others. Later, after suffering two show-stopping events, all the students involved with the play band together and put on a show the other students will never forget.

While all three schools eagerly await the election of a new Etoile couple, Nagisa learns the truth behind this tradition and receives an unexpected invitation from Shizuma in order to find out more information about Shizuma's late partner—the deceased Etoile.

During a rainy night in Shizuma's villa, Nagisa finally learns about Kaori Sakuragi, the Etoile that passed away. However, she also makes a painful discovery of exactly how close the two Etoile were, and how their shared past is far from being a mere memory. After telling her of this past, she breaks down in Nagisa's arms, crying Kaori's name over and over. Nagisa is hurt that Shizuma still cannot forget the past, despite their mutual affection.

Miyuki recounts for Nagisa the events of the past few years concerning Shizuma and the now-deceased Kaori. As she tells her story, she also touches on the effects Nagisa's coming and passing had on both Shizuma and herself.

In the aftermath of Shizuma avoiding everyone else, a cheerful Nagisa pushes on with her life, but then falls into a state of depression and ponders if coming to Miator was a good idea, which causes Tamao to recount just why Nagisa is so important to her. Meanwhile, Nagisa's first and second year friends, concerned with her mood, decide to band together to cheer her up again. Tamao admits her long-standing love for Nagisa to her while she is sleeping.
