**[00:33] ---**
Geez...
**[00:35] ---**
They sure are late, huh?
**[00:38] ---**
What could they be up to?
**[00:44] ---**
All right...
**[00:48] ---**
I told you, some weirdos
are trying to start some trouble!
**[00:52] ---**
Huh? Hey,
I *was* just walking normally!
**[00:55] ---**
Hey!
**[00:56] ---**
Stop running away like that.
**[00:58] ---**
Yikes!
**[00:59] ---**
Oh? Wait up!
**[01:02] ---**
You're not getting away from us!
**[01:02] ---**
Look, just hurry!
**[01:05] ---**
Right, right. Just a little longer...
**[01:09] ---**
I've pinpointed Miss Saten's
cell phone's location!
**[01:12] ---**
Nicely done, Uiharu. Now...
**[01:14] ---**
J-Just a moment please!
I'll get my armband...
**[01:19] ---**
Huh?
**[01:19] ---**
Oh?
**[01:20] ---**
Hey, hold up!
**[01:22] ---**
Why don't you just give up, already?
**[01:24] ---**
Yeah, yeah!
**[01:31] ---**
There, you see? You get all
hasty, and you take a tumble.
**[01:36] ---**
U-Uh...
**[01:40] ---**
Yow!
**[01:42] ---**
Judgment!
**[01:43] ---**
Uiharu? Shirai!
**[01:45] ---**
You're under arrest for attempted assault!
**[01:45] ---**
Judgment?
**[01:47] ---**
Hey, she's got an ability.
**[01:48] ---**
Yes, that!
**[01:48] ---**
I've never seen anyone teleport before.
**[01:50] ---**
Heh, even with her ability,
once all of us surround her...
**[01:54] ---**
For crying out loud, learn your place--
**[01:57] ---**
Ah, here you are!
**[01:59] ---**
Geez, you guys were so late.
**[02:01] ---**
What are you all doing here?
**[02:03] ---**
Who are you?
**[02:04] ---**
Uh, wait--
**[02:06] ---**
Are you friends with these others?
**[02:08] ---**
If you're interfering with us,
then why don't we start with you, huh?
**[02:13] ---**
So then, she says...
**[02:17] ---**
W-What was that just now?
**[02:19] ---**
Lightning?
**[02:21] ---**
Come on, let's get going.
**[02:23] ---**
Otherwise, the stores
are going to close.
**[02:26] ---**
Uh...
**[02:26] ---**
Um...
**[02:27] ---**
By the way,
**[02:28] ---**
who are these guys, anyway?
**[02:32] ---**
Zap first and ask
questions later, huh?
**[02:36] ---**
Sissy...
**[02:39] ---**
Eh?
**[02:48] ---**
With a population of 2.3 million,
**[02:51] ---**
eighty percent of which is
taken up by students,
**[02:53] ---**
focused daily on nurturing
and improving their abilities,
**[02:57] ---**
this is Academy City.
**[03:00] ---**
Of the only seven Level 5
people that dominate here,
**[03:03] ---**
you are the third-ranked
"Railgun," Misaka Mikoto.
**[03:10] ---**
Sissy, are you even aware of who you are?
**[03:13] ---**
Huh? What do you mean?
**[03:16] ---**
Don't you "What do you mean?" me!
**[03:18] ---**
Sissy, your ability is simultaneously
**[03:21] ---**
an aspiration and an object of jealousy.
**[03:23] ---**
Like yesterday, when your
rash actions drew attention to you,
**[03:27] ---**
there are those even now who
would exploit you, or use foul play to--
**[03:32] ---**
Hey! Why are you
answering that text message?!
**[03:35] ---**
It's from Miss Uiharu.
She just left the dorm.
**[03:38] ---**
Come on, you should hurry up
and finish your work, too.
**[03:42] ---**
Ah...
**[03:43] ---**
Man...
**[03:45] ---**
Gee whiz, Sissy.
**[03:49] ---**
Man!
**[03:50] ---**
That was so cool-looking!
**[03:53] ---**
What do you call it?
An instant takedown?
**[03:55] ---**
With just one shot,
she blasted all those punks!
**[03:58] ---**
Impressive.
**[04:00] ---**
The same old Miss Saten
as always, I see.
**[04:02] ---**
It's because you wander those
back alleyways that this happens.
**[04:05] ---**
Yeah... Ah!
Haru'ue, we're almost there!
**[04:10] ---**
Let's see, the invitation, the invitation...
**[04:11] ---**
There you go again, changing the subject.
**[04:13] ---**
Come to think of it,
**[04:15] ---**
why are we meeting up at
Miss Misaka and Shirai's school today?
**[04:33] ---**
Ah, Miss Misaka...
**[04:36] ---**
Oh, Miss Kongo.
And Miss Wannai and Miss Awatsuki, as well.
**[04:40] ---**
Hello, Miss Misaka.
**[04:42] ---**
How are you?
**[04:43] ---**
Are those...?
**[04:44] ---**
Ah, these?
**[04:46] ---**
Materials for our assignments.
**[04:49] ---**
When it comes to this school,
**[04:50] ---**
the summer vacation
assignments are voluminous!
**[04:53] ---**
Seriously, it is a real pain.
**[04:55] ---**
Yeah, yeah. Just choosing the
material is a chore by itself, huh?
**[05:00] ---**
Then, Miss Misaka,
is that why you're here today?
**[05:02] ---**
Oh, I'm just killing some
time until I have to meet someone.
**[05:06] ---**
I've already finished my assignments.
**[05:08] ---**
Yes, we're sure you did.
**[05:10] ---**
I-If I really wanted to, I could
have done these in half a day.
**[05:18] ---**
Uh-oh...
**[05:19] ---**
Hey, are you okay, Miss Kongo?
**[05:21] ---**
Oh, dear. How could I let this happen?
**[05:24] ---**
Look, there's one over here, too...
**[05:26] ---**
Here, Miss Kongo.
**[05:27] ---**
Ugh!
**[05:28] ---**
These, too.
**[05:28] ---**
Th-Thank you.
**[05:30] ---**
Well...
**[05:31] ---**
That's Miss Shokuho.
And she's surrounded by her little clique.
**[05:35] ---**
That's the fifth-ranked Level 5 for you.
**[05:38] ---**
It's no wonder they call
her the queen of this school, is it?
**[05:42] ---**
I don't know.
**[05:44] ---**
There isn't a single thing
about her that I find likeable.
**[05:48] ---**
H-How could I let myself say that?
**[05:50] ---**
B-By no means did I mean
that to sound like backbiting!
**[05:53] ---**
I don't know what to say!
It just slipped out!
**[05:54] ---**
We get it!
**[05:55] ---**
W-Well then, we should be on our way.
**[05:58] ---**
Yes, we should.
**[05:59] ---**
See you around, Miss Misaka.
**[06:01] ---**
Ah, mm-hmm.
**[06:05] ---**
Miss Misaka!
**[06:08] ---**
Miss Misaka!
**[06:12] ---**
There's no talking allowed in the library.
**[06:14] ---**
Oh, come on!
**[06:16] ---**
You were chatting up
a storm just a moment ago.
**[06:20] ---**
Unless, maybe,
you just don't want to talk to *me*?
**[06:25] ---**
Oh? What have we here?
**[06:27] ---**
Hey! Could you not touch my
things without asking?!
**[06:32] ---**
Whoa, how scary!
**[06:34] ---**
By any chance, is it a present
for your boyfriend, or anything?
**[06:38] ---**
Are you trying to pick a fight with me?
**[06:42] ---**
Of course not.
Going one-on-one is so difficult.
**[06:47] ---**
After all...
**[06:50] ---**
Ow...!
**[06:52] ---**
Miss Misaka, my tampering
powers don't work on you.
**[06:57] ---**
That EM barrier of yours is a real bother.
**[07:01] ---**
Listen, you!
**[07:02] ---**
Qu-Queen?
**[07:04] ---**
Is that Miss Misaka and Miss Shokuho?
**[07:07] ---**
Why are those two together?
**[07:10] ---**
Yes, indeed. But...
**[07:12] ---**
...while going one-on-one is too difficult...
**[07:21] ---**
...going up against this
many Tokiwadai students...
**[07:26] ---**
...would be intense,
even for you, wouldn't it?
**[07:33] ---**
I'm just kidding.
**[07:37] ---**
Huh? What was I just...?
**[07:40] ---**
Why am I out of my chair?
**[07:43] ---**
Oh, have a look over there!
**[07:45] ---**
S-So then, Queen, that was you?
**[07:45] ---**
It's Miss Misaka and Shokuho!
**[07:47] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[07:49] ---**
I see your ability is
as utterly depraved as ever,
**[07:53] ---**
Academy City's greatest mental ability user,
**[07:57] ---**
"Mental Out," Shokuho Misaki!
**[08:01] ---**
Don't make such an angry face.
**[08:03] ---**
Just as a warning, you seem
to be making friends in vain lately.
**[08:09] ---**
If you make any moves into my territory,
**[08:12] ---**
it is going to cost you.
**[08:15] ---**
Okay?
**[08:18] ---**
Would you mind...
**[08:20] ---**
...if I asked you a question?
**[08:22] ---**
If you're just asking, feel free.
**[08:25] ---**
Are you sure you're a middle-schooler?
**[08:32] ---**
That's a good question!
**[08:34] ---**
That's what I've ended up as,
for the time being,
**[08:37] ---**
but with my tampering abilities,
anything could happen, you know?
**[08:45] ---**
Sissy!
**[08:47] ---**
Uiharu and the others have arrived!
Come, come! Let's go! Let's go!
**[08:51] ---**
Stop teleporting in out of the blue!
**[08:59] ---**
Miss Misaka!
**[09:00] ---**
Thanks for waiting!
**[09:03] ---**
Huh? Shirai, what happened to you?
**[09:06] ---**
The same touchy-feeliness as always.
**[09:08] ---**
Sorry, Miss Haru'ue, for having
to drag you all the way out here.
**[09:12] ---**
Mm-mm, I'm having a terribly good time.
**[09:15] ---**
I bought a lot of
tasty-looking goodies, too.
**[09:17] ---**
There are a lot of
especially famous shops,
**[09:20] ---**
even for Academy City,
gathered around here, after all.
**[09:23] ---**
Uiharu, you sure did enjoy
being able to show them to Haru'ue.
**[09:28] ---**
Well, it's such a fantastic part of town.
**[09:30] ---**
Besides, no matter how you look
at it there's a fancy atmosphere here!
**[09:34] ---**
I feel like *Le Mademoiselle*!
Even the air smells like roses!
**[09:38] ---**
Oh, is that why?
**[09:41] ---**
You know, I wondered why you
went with something in that vein today.
**[09:45] ---**
In that vein? What do you mean by--
**[09:49] ---**
H-H-How do you know about that?!
**[09:51] ---**
Oh, it was earlier.
**[09:53] ---**
While you were picking
out your cake, I had a peek.
**[09:56] ---**
They were pretty, and so full of roses.
**[09:59] ---**
Not you, too, Miss Haru'ue!
**[10:01] ---**
You are so terrible!
**[10:03] ---**
Sorry, sorry. But it's just not
as satisfying without that reaction.
**[10:07] ---**
That's not what I mean--
**[10:08] ---**
Now, now!
**[10:10] ---**
Let's not stick around here squabbling,
**[10:13] ---**
come on!
**[10:14] ---**
#1 "Railgun"
**[10:14] ---**
Let's hurry and get going!
**[10:20] ---**
Are you visiting someone?
**[10:21] ---**
Yes.
**[10:22] ---**
Well then, please fill in
the required items on here.
**[10:26] ---**
All right.
**[10:27] ---**
Wow, you sure have gotten this down, huh?
**[10:30] ---**
Yo, guys!
**[10:32] ---**
Ah! Miss Yomikawa and Miss Tesso!
**[10:35] ---**
What's up with you today?
Ah, you're visiting someone?
**[10:39] ---**
Yes.
**[10:40] ---**
How about you, ma'am?
**[10:42] ---**
Has there been an incident,
or something?
**[10:43] ---**
Oh, no.
**[10:44] ---**
One of the pseudo-radicals we
went up against is being treated here.
**[10:50] ---**
He's finally recovered,
**[10:51] ---**
so we're relocating him to
an Antiskill-affiliated hospital,
**[10:55] ---**
where we'll put the
squeeze on him good and hard.
**[10:57] ---**
Now, take it easy.
**[10:59] ---**
Pseudo-radical?
**[11:03] ---**
Yeah. Well,
**[11:05] ---**
you know, there are always
all sorts of problems in this town.
**[11:16] ---**
Yes?
**[11:17] ---**
Hello, Banri!
**[11:20] ---**
Ah, Erii! Hmm?
**[11:23] ---**
Is something wrong--
**[11:24] ---**
Hello!
**[11:26] ---**
Hi, everyone!
**[11:26] ---**
"Edasaki Banri"
**[11:32] ---**
Delicious!
**[11:33] ---**
This is really delicious, Erii!
**[11:36] ---**
Isn't it? Earlier, Miss Uiharu and
I had all we could eat at this shop.
**[11:40] ---**
The two of you must have
eaten about twenty of them, huh?
**[11:43] ---**
Amazing!
**[11:45] ---**
You're looking so much better, huh?
**[11:47] ---**
Mm-hmm. Well, the
rehab is a little bit hard,
**[11:52] ---**
but having all of you come see
me like this makes me work harder!
**[11:56] ---**
Yes! Hurry up and finish your rehabilitation,
**[11:59] ---**
and starting from second term,
we'll go to school together!
**[12:01] ---**
Mm-hmm!
**[12:04] ---**
S-Say, i-is anyone thirsty?
**[12:07] ---**
Eh?
**[12:08] ---**
Huh?
**[12:09] ---**
Yes, I am. Why don't
we go buy some sodas?
**[12:13] ---**
Great idea! Well, Miss Haru'ue,
**[12:15] ---**
we're all going to step out for a moment.
**[12:18] ---**
We're...
**[12:19] ---**
...*all*...?
**[12:20] ---**
Come along, let's go.
**[12:22] ---**
Wait, Miss Shirai...
**[12:24] ---**
M-Misaka?
**[12:25] ---**
Come on, come on, hurry! Okay,
**[12:28] ---**
we'll be right back!
Make yourselves comfortable!
**[12:31] ---**
Come along, Sissy.
**[12:33] ---**
All right, let's go!
**[12:37] ---**
What was that about?
**[12:37] ---**
What was that about?
**[12:48] ---**
So, what's going on, really?
**[12:51] ---**
Now, now, sodas come first.
**[12:59] ---**
That's... their rehabilitation, right?
**[13:02] ---**
Miss Edasaki really
is working hard, huh?
**[13:08] ---**
Sissy...
**[13:10] ---**
Sissy?
**[13:13] ---**
Is something the matter?
**[13:14] ---**
Oh, mm-mm. Nothing at all.
**[13:20] ---**
A surprise, you say?
**[13:23] ---**
Yeah!
**[13:24] ---**
I think that just handing over our present
**[13:27] ---**
will be lacking in impact somehow.
**[13:29] ---**
The important thing when it
comes to these things is the mood.
**[13:34] ---**
Actually, having it come out of a cake,
**[13:37] ---**
or sitting at the bottom of champagne,
is what I'd like to do,
**[13:41] ---**
but something like
that is out of the question.
**[13:42] ---**
Just how serious is she?
**[13:44] ---**
However, there are those!
**[13:47] ---**
Those...?
**[13:48] ---**
The flowers?
**[13:49] ---**
Yes!
**[13:51] ---**
I call it, "Operation: Oh, a Bouquet of
Flowers, But What's This Inside?"
**[13:56] ---**
Well?
**[13:58] ---**
H-Huh?
**[14:01] ---**
Th-That sounds nice, doesn't it?
**[14:02] ---**
Doesn't it?! Okay, I'll go buy them!
**[14:06] ---**
Miss Shirai!
**[14:06] ---**
Shirai!
**[14:08] ---**
Well, you know Sissy.
**[14:11] ---**
O-Oh, no...
**[14:13] ---**
Huh? What's that?
**[14:15] ---**
Oh, that's Miss Misaka's.
**[14:18] ---**
Aww, how could I have done that?!
**[14:22] ---**
Now, now...
**[14:23] ---**
I guess there is nothing we can do.
**[14:24] ---**
That's right. But as long as
we can get our feelings across...
**[14:27] ---**
No, we can still pull this off!
**[14:29] ---**
Kuroko, I need your power!
**[14:31] ---**
First, while you're holding me,
**[14:31] ---**
S-Sissy, just take it easy...
**[14:34] ---**
we'll teleport our way in, and...
**[14:35] ---**
Geez, we even called ahead.
**[14:37] ---**
How much time does it take
to process a simple relocation?
**[14:41] ---**
Now, now...
**[14:46] ---**
Miss Yomikawa...?
**[14:48] ---**
Huh? The guard is gone--
**[14:52] ---**
Hey! You, there! Hold up!
**[14:58] ---**
What was...?
**[15:00] ---**
What's that?
**[15:01] ---**
A fire?
**[15:04] ---**
Come on, hurry!
**[15:05] ---**
Tesso!
**[15:06] ---**
R-Right!
**[15:07] ---**
Call below and have
them scramble! Hurry!
**[15:10] ---**
R-Right!
**[15:12] ---**
Damn.
**[15:16] ---**
Ah, it's stopped.
**[15:18] ---**
The emergency bell has just rung,
**[15:21] ---**
but we can't confirm any
fires in the building.
**[15:21] ---**
Uiharu!
**[15:22] ---**
Right!
**[15:23] ---**
Huh?
**[15:24] ---**
Kuroko?
**[15:25] ---**
We're going to go check
on the situation, just in case.
**[15:28] ---**
Sissy, you and Miss Saten
head back to Miss Edasaki without us.
**[15:32] ---**
Oh, and one other thing...
**[15:34] ---**
No matter what happens,
**[15:35] ---**
please refrain from any
activities similar to yesterday's.
**[15:38] ---**
Y-Yeah, I know.
**[15:40] ---**
What could it be?
**[15:42] ---**
I wonder if something has happened.
**[15:44] ---**
I'll go have a look.
**[15:46] ---**
Be careful, okay?
**[15:47] ---**
Mm-hmm, I know.
**[15:57] ---**
All right!
**[15:58] ---**
Hey, hurry up and open it!
**[15:59] ---**
Freeze!
**[16:01] ---**
It's no use! You can't get away!
**[16:03] ---**
There's an all-points bulletin
for you throughout Academy City!
**[16:06] ---**
There's nowhere you can--
**[16:06] ---**
Shut up!
**[16:07] ---**
You keep your mouth shut!
**[16:11] ---**
That girl!
**[16:13] ---**
Don't try anything funny.
**[16:15] ---**
I'll blow this girl's head off.
**[16:18] ---**
The criminal scheduled
for transfer has escaped?
**[16:19] ---**
Excuse me, please keep walking.
**[16:21] ---**
Captain Yomikawa is in pursuit.
**[16:23] ---**
Remain calm.
**[16:23] ---**
Reinforcements are on their way.
**[16:25] ---**
We could use your help to
make sure a panic doesn't spread...
**[16:29] ---**
Geez...
**[16:30] ---**
Who does Kuroko think I am, anyway?
**[16:33] ---**
She's just concerned about you.
**[16:35] ---**
Misaka, you're always so
reckless, after all.
**[16:39] ---**
But then, Misaka, that's what...
**[16:42] ---**
That's right. Maintain your positions.
**[16:45] ---**
No, don't provoke them
for no reason. They have a--
**[16:48] ---**
Miss Yomikawa...?
**[16:50] ---**
What are you doing here?
**[16:51] ---**
Has something happened...?
**[16:57] ---**
The pseudo-radicals
**[16:58] ---**
have blocked off the roof,
and are holed up there.
**[17:01] ---**
You should hurry
and find someplace safe.
**[17:04] ---**
Miss Edasaki!
**[17:05] ---**
Hey, what's the matter?
**[17:06] ---**
Erii... Erii didn't come back...
**[17:11] ---**
Huh?
**[17:12] ---**
You mean...?
**[17:14] ---**
Your friend has been taken hostage.
**[17:17] ---**
No way!
**[17:18] ---**
Miss Saten!
**[17:26] ---**
Thank you. But, um, what about Erii?!
**[17:30] ---**
It's all right.
**[17:34] ---**
Um...
**[17:35] ---**
Misaka...?
**[17:37] ---**
Whoa!
**[17:38] ---**
What are you...?!
**[17:42] ---**
Hey, Misaka!
**[17:48] ---**
No! Let me go!
**[17:50] ---**
Be quiet, and stop squirming around!
**[17:52] ---**
All right, we're good! Take off!
**[17:57] ---**
What?!
**[18:06] ---**
Miss Misaka!
**[18:07] ---**
What do you think you're doing...
**[18:10] ---**
...to one of my friends?!
**[18:12] ---**
Sh-She has an ability, huh?
Hey, give it more power!
**[18:16] ---**
I am! But my controls are...
**[18:18] ---**
Damn, she's one of her
friends? In that case...!
**[18:23] ---**
Here you go!
**[18:26] ---**
Miss Haru'ue!
**[18:33] ---**
Saten!
**[18:34] ---**
C'mon...
**[18:35] ---**
Too... hard...
**[18:38] ---**
Yow-w-w-w-w!
**[18:40] ---**
M-Miss Saten...
**[18:43] ---**
...h-hang in there...
**[18:46] ---**
For Pete's sake.
**[18:48] ---**
Huh?
**[18:49] ---**
Eh?
**[18:50] ---**
I'm...
**[18:52] ---**
Kuroko!
**[18:53] ---**
After I...
**[18:55] ---**
...emphatically told you not to...
**[18:57] ---**
Yeah, well, you see, I couldn't help
it, could I? For one thing...
**[19:00] ---**
Sissy!
**[19:01] ---**
Miss Haru'ue! Are you all right?
You didn't get hurt, did you?
**[19:05] ---**
Mm-mm, I'm all right.
**[19:07] ---**
Thank goodness!
**[19:08] ---**
I'm sorry if I worried you. Ahh--!
**[19:12] ---**
The bag!
**[19:13] ---**
Eh?
**[19:14] ---**
Miss Misaka's bag is...
**[19:16] ---**
Huh?
**[19:22] ---**
Kuroko...
**[19:26] ---**
I guess there is little choice, is there?
**[19:29] ---**
Huh? Hold on! Misaka!
**[19:29] ---**
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, Sissy!
**[19:33] ---**
Looks like it went well enough.
**[19:36] ---**
Yeah, you saved my skin. Huh?
**[19:39] ---**
What's that?
**[19:40] ---**
Oh, it's that kid's, right?
**[19:43] ---**
Speaking of kids, that girl
with the ability was incredible, huh?
**[19:46] ---**
Was that what's called an "electromaster"?
**[19:48] ---**
Yeah. And I'm pretty sure
that uniform was from Tokiwadai.
**[19:53] ---**
Huh? You mean, that prestigious school?
**[19:55] ---**
Just a second!
The electromaster from Tokiwadai is...
**[19:58] ---**
Hey, Kuroko...
**[20:00] ---**
Hmm?
**[20:01] ---**
Um...
**[20:05] ---**
Thanks!
**[20:07] ---**
Sissy--
**[20:10] ---**
I will see you later,
**[20:12] ---**
Sissy.
**[20:14] ---**
I remember now!
**[20:16] ---**
The electromaster from
Tokiwadai happens to be...
**[20:19] ---**
...the greatest electric shock
user in the whole town!
**[20:24] ---**
The Level 5...
**[20:28] ---**
"Railgun"...!
**[20:47] ---**
Welcome back, pseudo-radicals.
**[20:55] ---**
It ended up being the
same old Miss Misaka, huh?
**[20:59] ---**
Yeah, but then...
**[21:01] ---**
...that's what's so great about Misaka, huh?
**[21:11] ---**
That felt good!
**[21:14] ---**
Here, Miss Edasaki!
**[21:16] ---**
Huh? Isn't this...
**[21:18] ---**
Miss Misaka's...
**[21:20] ---**
Never mind, just open it!
**[21:22] ---**
M-Mm-hmm...
**[21:25] ---**
A uniform? For Banri?
**[21:28] ---**
Please keep up the hard work,
**[21:30] ---**
so you can wear that soon.
**[21:32] ---**
We all went out
together yesterday to buy it.
**[21:34] ---**
Surprised?
**[21:35] ---**
Mm-hmm!
**[21:36] ---**
Thank you, every--
**[21:40] ---**
Miss Misaka?
**[21:42] ---**
I'm sorry, Miss Edasaki!
**[21:43] ---**
I was actually thinking
of an even better surprise,
**[21:46] ---**
but with all of the commotion earlier,
the stores closed, and...
**[21:49] ---**
Miss Misaka!
**[21:53] ---**
I was awfully surprised,
and I am awfully happy.
**[21:57] ---**
Thank you!
**[22:03] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[22:10] ---**
Good grief.
**[22:13] ---**
There is never a dull moment, huh?
**[22:15] ---**
Not in this town.

**[23:48] ---**
Miss Misaka looked as cool as always, huh?
**[23:48] ---**
"#2 Critical"
**[23:50] ---**
Miss Haru'ue is safe, too.
**[23:52] ---**
I'd call it a rosy, promising start!
**[23:53] ---**
I wonder what color it will be next week.
**[23:55] ---**
Hey, please don't lift my skirt up!

**[00:27] ---**
What is that boy doing?
**[00:29] ---**
He has a disease
called muscular dystrophy.
**[00:33] ---**
Muscular dys...?
**[00:41] ---**
It's a disease that makes his
muscles grow gradually weaker.
**[00:45] ---**
He was born with this unfair disease.
**[00:50] ---**
As you can see, he is fighting
to overcome the disease.
**[01:08] ---**
However, no matter how hard he tries,
**[01:10] ---**
he cannot recover from his disease.
**[01:13] ---**
With our current medical science,
there isn't any basic treatment.
**[01:17] ---**
His muscles will continue to weaken,
**[01:20] ---**
and in time, he won't
even be able to stand up.
**[01:23] ---**
Then, finally, his breathing
and heart activity will also stop.
**[01:30] ---**
However, that is, as I say, only currently.
**[01:35] ---**
By using your ability, he,
**[01:38] ---**
and other sick people like him,
may be helped by you.
**[01:43] ---**
Would you like to offer your DNA map to us?
**[02:06] ---**
Mm-hmm!
**[02:08] ---**
Thank you.
**[02:21] ---**
A dream...? Why was I dreaming
about something so long ago?
**[02:25] ---**
Oh, right--I went to see
Miss Edasaki yesterday, and...
**[02:54] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[02:58] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[03:01] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings

**[03:11] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*

**[04:13] ---**
Ah! Sissy, please wait for me!
**[04:18] ---**
Shut up, you perv!
**[04:20] ---**
I-I just wanted to feel
the warmth of someone else.
**[04:24] ---**
Even so, you can't come
crawling into my bed. Hmph!
**[04:30] ---**
B-Be that as it may, Sissy,
where are you off to today?
**[04:34] ---**
There's a regional field trip
**[04:36] ---**
at the beginning
of September, isn't there?
**[04:38] ---**
Ah, yes.
**[04:40] ---**
I was thinking of getting ready for it
**[04:41] ---**
by getting together the little
sundries I'll need to travel with.
**[04:46] ---**
You are going to go
shopping for more of your
**[04:48] ---**
somewhat childish goods, are you not?
**[04:51] ---**
Even though our tiny
room is already overflowing
**[04:52] ---**
with Made-In-Nowhere fancy
knockoffs of famous characters?
**[04:57] ---**
Did you say something?
**[04:59] ---**
No, nothing.
**[05:00] ---**
So, today, we are having
a shopping date, then?
**[05:03] ---**
Ugh...
**[05:04] ---**
You don't really have to tag along.
**[05:06] ---**
Not at all! Let's see... Is there
anything else that you might need?
**[05:13] ---**
Maybe something to intercept
**[05:16] ---**
intruding gropers sneaking into my bed?
**[05:19] ---**
You are still angry about that, are you?
**[05:21] ---**
Not at all.
**[05:24] ---**
I-I can be of all sorts of help to you.
**[05:28] ---**
Like, say, look!
**[05:30] ---**
If you are on your
way to the shopping mall,
**[05:33] ---**
this way will be much shorter.
**[05:37] ---**
After you, Sissy.
**[05:39] ---**
All right, but if you get me
somewhere out of public view
**[05:41] ---**
and then start clinging on me or anything,
I won't be responsible.
**[05:44] ---**
W-Why, I would not do something like *that*...
**[05:50] ---**
It's so narrow.
**[05:51] ---**
And how do you know
about this back alley, anyway?
**[05:54] ---**
It comes with the job.
**[05:56] ---**
I have maps of the city memorized,
down to the nooks and crannies.
**[06:06] ---**
Excuse me.
**[06:07] ---**
No, go right ahead.
**[06:09] ---**
When the way is this narrow,
this can be a hassle, huh?
**[06:13] ---**
Well, this does not happen very often, so...
**[06:21] ---**
Sorry.
**[06:21] ---**
No, go right ahead.
**[06:23] ---**
Say, is this a major back alley,
or something?
**[06:26] ---**
No, nothing like that.
**[06:29] ---**
This sure is strange, huh?
**[06:40] ---**
Why today, of all days...
**[06:42] ---**
...does this...
**[06:45] ---**
Hey, are you all right?
**[06:51] ---**
Huh? What is it?
**[06:53] ---**
Nothing, something just fell under here...
**[06:57] ---**
An envelope?
**[06:58] ---**
There is no address
or name written on it.
**[07:04] ---**
What's that?
**[07:08] ---**
A Money Card.
**[07:11] ---**
Huh? Miss Shirai, you found one, too?
**[07:14] ---**
Too?
**[07:16] ---**
Over the past few days,
we've been receiving reports
**[07:19] ---**
about found Money Cards
all across School District 7.
**[07:22] ---**
There are now forty-eight incidents...
**[07:24] ---**
Oh, it just went up to fifty-six incidents!
**[07:27] ---**
That many?
**[07:28] ---**
Since there are others,
**[07:29] ---**
which haven't been reported,
it's actually more.
**[07:32] ---**
Could it be some kind of
organized card counterfeiting?
**[07:35] ---**
The thing of it is,
**[07:36] ---**
all of the cards that were
turned into us were genuine.
**[07:40] ---**
Is that right, Miss Konori?
**[07:42] ---**
Yes.
**[07:43] ---**
But why? I have not heard
a single thing about this case.
**[07:49] ---**
While intentionally destroying
or abandoning money is prohibited,
**[07:53] ---**
Money Cards are exempt,
**[07:55] ---**
so there haven't been
any particular notices about it.
**[07:58] ---**
So that is why.
**[08:02] ---**
The amounts on the cards have varied,
**[08:04] ---**
from as little as 1000
yen to well over 50,000 yen.
**[08:09] ---**
Each of them was left in
a place with little human traffic,
**[08:13] ---**
and each one was
inserted into an envelope.
**[08:15] ---**
In other words, someone is
spreading these around on purpose.
**[08:24] ---**
It's awfully involved
for this to just be a prank.
**[08:27] ---**
There were no fingerprints
left on the cards or the envelopes.
**[08:30] ---**
Rumors have just been spreading around,
**[08:34] ---**
and there are more
people prowling the alleyways,
**[08:36] ---**
looking for treasure.
**[08:38] ---**
I see. That's why
there was so much traffic.
**[08:41] ---**
It's not just that.
Some students are stealing cards,
**[08:44] ---**
and others are getting into fights
**[08:46] ---**
for stumbling into Skill Out territory.
**[08:48] ---**
We cannot let this stand, can we?
**[08:51] ---**
Sissy, unfortunately, our date
will have to wait for another time.
**[08:56] ---**
Mm-mm, I can always go by
myself, so don't worry about it.
**[09:01] ---**
Bye!
**[09:04] ---**
That just means that I will be lonely.
**[09:06] ---**
Well, Miss Shirai, please start
looking around this area, okay?
**[09:13] ---**
Now I can take my
time and enjoy a little shopping!
**[09:19] ---**
E-Excuse me!
**[09:21] ---**
Mm-mm, it's okay.
**[09:22] ---**
Aww, it doesn't look
like there are any here.
**[09:26] ---**
Okay.
**[09:27] ---**
Do you think that story
was just a rumor after all?
**[09:30] ---**
But I heard that Rit-*chan
*in Class B found one.
**[09:33] ---**
Huh? Really?
**[09:34] ---**
Rumors, huh? Kuroko
and I aren't very up on those.
**[09:43] ---**
(sniff, sniff) (sniff, sniff)
**[09:46] ---**
(sniff, sniff)
**[09:49] ---**
(sniff, sniff) (sniff, sniff)
**[09:51] ---**
Hmm, maybe there
aren't any more around here.
**[09:55] ---**
Uh, Miss Saten...?
**[09:58] ---**
Ah, Misaka!
**[10:00] ---**
Geez, what was up earlier,
walking off without saying anything?
**[10:04] ---**
Huh? Earlier?
**[10:05] ---**
Oh, don't play dumb.
**[10:07] ---**
Misaka, you were walking in
front of Seventh Mist, weren't you?
**[10:11] ---**
I called out to you,
but you ignored me like crazy.
**[10:14] ---**
I don't think that was me.
**[10:17] ---**
Eh? But I was certain you
were wearing a Tokiwadai uniform.
**[10:22] ---**
I've been with Kuroko and the others.
**[10:25] ---**
Well, maybe it *wasn't* you.
**[10:27] ---**
By the way, Miss Saten,
what were you doing?
**[10:29] ---**
By any chance, were you searching
for those rumored Money Cards?
**[10:33] ---**
You know about that?
**[10:36] ---**
Ta-da!
**[10:37] ---**
A-Amazing.
**[10:39] ---**
I just seem to have a keen
nose for these kinds of rumors, huh?
**[10:44] ---**
(sniff, sniff)
**[10:46] ---**
(sniff, sniff, sniff)
**[10:47] ---**
Y-You don't say.
**[10:49] ---**
(sniff, sniff)
**[10:51] ---**
All right!
**[10:52] ---**
Let's go check over there, next!
**[10:54] ---**
Eh? I-I don't really...
**[10:56] ---**
Just come on, come on!
**[10:58] ---**
Full school curfew is
approaching. All students,
**[11:02] ---**
please return home at once.
Full school curfew is approaching.
**[11:06] ---**
Aww, now it's gone and
become evening time, huh?
**[11:11] ---**
Here. This is your share, Misaka.
**[11:14] ---**
Thanks. No, wait, I can't!
**[11:17] ---**
Those have to be turned over!
**[11:20] ---**
Yeah, I'm sure you're right.
I'll contact Uiharu later on.
**[11:25] ---**
Never mind that, Miss Saten...
**[11:27] ---**
Have you heard any rumors
about who was distributing those cards?
**[11:31] ---**
Huh... I haven't heard
very much about that, have I?
**[11:37] ---**
Okay, Misaka! Let's bring
Uiharu along next time, too!
**[11:41] ---**
Yeah, sure.
**[11:42] ---**
Well, see you!
**[11:43] ---**
See you later!
**[11:46] ---**
Ugh, I ended up wasting
the whole day. What am I doing?
**[11:54] ---**
It's true, I tell you!
**[11:57] ---**
I was going into an
alley in Block E to take a leak,
**[12:00] ---**
and I saw a girl placing
this envelope. So I followed her.
**[12:04] ---**
And?
**[12:05] ---**
So she went into a
multi-tenant building in Block C.
**[12:09] ---**
That must be her base!
**[12:10] ---**
Just the one girl?
**[12:12] ---**
She's got others with her, doesn't she?
**[12:13] ---**
I checked it out!
It really is just the one girl!
**[12:17] ---**
Hmph, let's go have a look.
**[12:19] ---**
How did you check it out?
**[12:21] ---**
I staked her out.
**[12:23] ---**
You're so devoted, huh?
**[12:24] ---**
It's been a long time since
I've heard anything this good.
**[12:29] ---**
Yeah, Kuroko? Mm-hmm, listen...
**[12:31] ---**
"#2 Critical"
**[12:32] ---**
I need a little favor.
**[12:38] ---**
Ah, welcome back.
**[12:40] ---**
Did you finish the tabulation?
**[12:42] ---**
Yes.
**[12:43] ---**
Today's total is... seventy-three incidents.
**[12:47] ---**
It's growing more
and more each day, isn't it?
**[12:49] ---**
So, where is Miss Shirai?
**[12:51] ---**
She said something important
came up, and that she had to leave.
**[12:54] ---**
She did?
**[12:56] ---**
Well, I'll be having dinner.
Dinner... Dinner...
**[13:00] ---**
Hello?
**[13:02] ---**
Ah, Miss Saten. Huh?
**[13:05] ---**
Oh, you found a Money Card, too?
**[13:09] ---**
Yes, all right.
Okay, tomorrow, or whenever.
**[13:12] ---**
Oh, but never mind that...
**[13:14] ---**
Mm-hmm... Mm-hmm... All right.
**[13:18] ---**
I just need to stay with
Miss Haru'ue until you get back, then?
**[13:21] ---**
If it's not too much trouble.
**[13:23] ---**
Oh, hold on, Uiharu!
**[13:25] ---**
There's something I wanted to ask you.
**[13:27] ---**
Eh? Miss Misaka?
**[13:30] ---**
Yes, she came here
this afternoon with Miss Shirai,
**[13:33] ---**
to drop off one of the Money Cards.
**[13:35] ---**
She did, huh? Then I guess
I just mistook someone else for her.
**[13:41] ---**
Mm-mm, it's nothing. See you!
**[13:49] ---**
Was I really mistaken about her?
**[13:52] ---**
Huh? A look-alike of Miss Misaka?
**[13:55] ---**
Yes. Miss Saten said she saw one.
**[13:59] ---**
Come to think of it,
there were stories long ago
**[14:02] ---**
about there being Level 5 clones.
**[14:04] ---**
Clones?
**[14:05] ---**
Some research facility
somewhere used cloning technology
**[14:09] ---**
to try mass-producing Level 5's...
**[14:11] ---**
...or so the story goes.
**[14:15] ---**
That does sort of sound like Academy City...
**[14:18] ---**
...and like something Miss Saten
would sink her teeth into, huh?
**[14:21] ---**
That's the truth!
**[14:27] ---**
Yes?
**[14:29] ---**
Good evening, Head Resident.
**[14:31] ---**
Allow me to commend
you on your diligent patrol.
**[14:33] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[14:35] ---**
Hmm?
**[14:36] ---**
Hey, where is Misaka?
**[14:38] ---**
Hey, Kuroko, we're out of shampoo!
**[14:42] ---**
Right! Oh, my poor Sissy.
**[14:45] ---**
I am terribly sorry, Head Resident.
**[14:47] ---**
Just a moment, please!
**[14:51] ---**
Hurry it up, Kuroko!
**[14:53] ---**
Okay, okay.
**[14:58] ---**
Kuroko, my towel is...
**[15:00] ---**
Hey! Why are you coming in--
**[15:03] ---**
Oh, Sissy,
**[15:05] ---**
to think that I would
have to fool the head resident
**[15:07] ---**
because you did not
make it back before curfew...
**[15:09] ---**
Whatever would have
happened if I had not had my little
**[15:13] ---**
"Secret Sissy Voice Collection" here?
**[15:16] ---**
It has been a long
time since this has happened.
**[15:19] ---**
It used to happen quite often.
**[15:24] ---**
Sissy...
**[15:34] ---**
Hi! Forgive the intrusion.
**[15:38] ---**
Just take it nice and easy,
and things won't get violent.
**[15:42] ---**
Do you need something?
**[15:44] ---**
Well, you see,
**[15:45] ---**
you know those cards that
you've been spreading around?
**[15:47] ---**
We were thinking of
getting all of them from you.
**[15:54] ---**
Whoa, there!
**[15:56] ---**
Setting off a security buzzer
would cause us too much trouble,
**[15:59] ---**
so I think we'll have a
look inside there ourselves. Hey!
**[16:02] ---**
You betcha.
**[16:06] ---**
What's this? There're only two of them.
**[16:09] ---**
Huh?
**[16:10] ---**
None over here, either.
**[16:12] ---**
Coming all the way here
for just this is a complete joke.
**[16:15] ---**
Hey...
**[16:16] ---**
...raising my hands
against women is not my style.
**[16:19] ---**
Tell us right now where--
**[16:21] ---**
There aren't any here.
**[16:23] ---**
Equals...
**[16:24] ---**
This is my whole stock.
**[16:26] ---**
There's no way that's true!
**[16:28] ---**
And also, aren't you fairly relaxed,
given your situation? Huh?
**[16:33] ---**
You don't suppose she has an ability!
**[16:42] ---**
Whatever the case, not too many of them
**[16:44] ---**
can do anything against this many of us.
**[16:47] ---**
Right now, let's make a thorough search.
**[16:50] ---**
Hey, you keep your eyes on her.
**[16:52] ---**
Y-Yeah...
**[16:53] ---**
What are you so spooked about?
**[16:55] ---**
I-I'm not spooked!
**[16:58] ---**
Hey, just get to it, already.
**[17:03] ---**
Anything over there?
**[17:04] ---**
Nothing. Damn it, where are they?
**[17:07] ---**
Shut up and keep looking.
**[17:07] ---**
Damn, I don't know what,
**[17:10] ---**
but something about her is creepy.
**[17:14] ---**
That school badge--I've seen it somewhere...
**[17:18] ---**
Nagatenjoki Academy?!
**[17:20] ---**
That's the greatest,
most elite school in all of Academy City!
**[17:25] ---**
Which means that, sure enough,
she's a high-level ability user!
**[17:28] ---**
No, hold on, just calm down...
Unlike Tokiwadai,
**[17:32] ---**
they take those who excel
in other fields besides abilities.
**[17:36] ---**
So she may not necessarily
have any abilities...
**[17:41] ---**
W-What?!
**[17:43] ---**
You look a little pale.
Are you sure you're okay?
**[17:48] ---**
L-Leave me alone!
**[17:50] ---**
You're breathing hard, too.
**[17:52] ---**
And that's a nasty cold sweat.
**[17:55] ---**
You seem to be shaking something awful.
**[17:57] ---**
Why, you...!
**[17:58] ---**
It's almost as though...
**[18:01] ---**
H-How did you know that?
**[18:05] ---**
Because...
**[18:08] ---**
Hey, what's wrong?!
**[18:14] ---**
W-What the hell did you do to him?!
**[18:16] ---**
Sh-She's got some ability,
all right, doesn't she?!
**[18:20] ---**
If she did, she'd have attacked
us earlier, and been done with it!
**[18:23] ---**
B-But she isn't packing
something, or anything!
**[18:26] ---**
There's a condition to activate it.
**[18:29] ---**
My ability is called "Critical."
**[18:32] ---**
It only activates against
those I've come into contact with.
**[18:36] ---**
However...
**[18:38] ---**
...once I touch you,
no matter where you run,
**[18:41] ---**
I am able to end your life.
**[18:43] ---**
Hmph, what are you talking about?
**[18:45] ---**
I've never heard of
an ability as weird as that.
**[18:51] ---**
Whether you believe me or not is up to you.
**[18:54] ---**
But the ability to acquire and
tamper with others
**[18:58] ---**
whose AIM diffusion fields
have been traced has many variations.
**[19:03] ---**
Although, to Level 0's such as yourselves,
**[19:05] ---**
it may be a sensation
that doesn't mean much to you.
**[19:08] ---**
This is a load of worthless hot air.
**[19:12] ---**
Huh? What's with you?!
**[19:13] ---**
I-I happened to touch her earlier!
**[19:17] ---**
If what she says is true, then I...
**[19:20] ---**
Don't freak out. I'm telling you,
that's a bunch of hot air.
**[19:24] ---**
Y-Yeah, but...
**[19:25] ---**
Hey, knock off the division
in the ranks, here!
**[19:28] ---**
Yes.
**[19:32] ---**
Fighting among friends is a bad thing.
**[19:37] ---**
Why, you!
**[19:39] ---**
Hey, what am I supposed to do now?!
**[19:41] ---**
Take it easy!
**[19:43] ---**
Shut up. I'll do this.
**[19:49] ---**
Hmm? Huh?
**[19:53] ---**
W-What was that?! Hey, you guys...
**[20:02] ---**
Damn, what the hell is going on?
**[20:16] ---**
You're kidding, right?
**[20:19] ---**
You're the only one left, right?
**[20:24] ---**
What, again?!
**[20:28] ---**
I'll get her!
**[20:31] ---**
I'll get her!
**[20:33] ---**
There you are!
**[20:40] ---**
M-My pipe...
**[20:43] ---**
Where's my iron pipe?!
**[20:48] ---**
Damn!
**[20:50] ---**
What is this?! What is it?!
**[20:54] ---**
What's going on?!
**[21:00] ---**
Now, you are the
subject of my ability, as well.
**[21:04] ---**
It's all right.
**[21:06] ---**
Just like it was with
your friends, it will all be over,
**[21:10] ---**
before you can feel any pain.
**[21:11] ---**
W-Wait a minute! I'm sorry!
I'll get out of here, right now!
**[21:15] ---**
So please...!
**[21:19] ---**
And now...
**[21:20] ---**
...I just have to lower my hand.
**[21:25] ---**
Three...
**[21:27] ---**
two...
**[21:27] ---**
N-No...
**[21:29] ---**
one...
**[21:29] ---**
Don't!!
**[21:36] ---**
Well,
**[21:37] ---**
it was just a paper popper.
**[21:43] ---**
Wow, that was a
pretty good show you put on.
**[21:47] ---**
I was going to step in if it got ugly,
**[21:50] ---**
but imagine, you neutralizing
this many Skill Outs so easily...
**[21:54] ---**
And with just narrative,
showmanship, and...
**[21:57] ---**
...what is that,
anesthesia, or something?
**[22:04] ---**
What?
**[22:09] ---**
You...
**[22:15] ---**
...are the Original, huh?
**[22:29] ---**
*While looking up
into an unfamiliar sky,*
**[22:35] ---**
*always, always walking with you*
**[22:41] ---**
*I was searching for
the future I thought I saw,*
**[22:47] ---**
*so unlike the one up until a day ago*
**[22:53] ---**
*When you touched my heart,
convinced by my blurred vision,*
**[23:02] ---**
*that I was wandering*
**[23:05] ---**
*everything started changing*
**[23:09] ---**
*After counting clouds until I grew
bored of it, they drifted far away again*
**[23:16] ---**
*I went after them, and found
my dreams for tomorrow*
**[23:21] ---**
*Assured that it's now or never,
your feelings get through to me*
**[23:28] ---**
*and someday, I'm sure,
I'll offer mine, too*
**[23:34] ---**
*Like the clouds, gently, gently,*
**[23:40] ---**
*moving forever, forever forward*
**[23:47] ---**

**[23:49] ---**
You are the Original, huh?
**[23:51] ---**
Yes! In this episode,
**[23:52] ---**
my original "Secret Sissy Voice Collection"
**[23:54] ---**
played a major part!
**[23:56] ---**
Oh, no it didn't!

**[00:23] ---**
So then, anyway...
**[00:24] ---**
Good morning!
**[00:25] ---**
Eh?
**[00:26] ---**
Huh?
**[00:27] ---**
Miss Misaka? Um...
that was awfully timely, huh?
**[00:31] ---**
Huh?
**[00:32] ---**
Timely? But I always
get here around this time.
**[00:35] ---**
No, I mean, after seeing
you in town earlier.
**[00:37] ---**
We saw you walking in the
opposite direction from the school.
**[00:42] ---**
Oh, there's no way you could
have seen that, is there?
**[00:45] ---**
I'm sure you must have just seen
someone you thought was me.
**[00:50] ---**
Clones?
**[00:51] ---**
What do you mean?
**[00:53] ---**
There's some kind
of story about a project
**[00:56] ---**
where they're trying
to make clones of Level 5s.
**[00:59] ---**
You haven't heard of it?
**[01:00] ---**
Nope, it's news to me.
**[01:01] ---**
But it sounds amazing, huh?
**[01:02] ---**
Geez, of all the stories...
**[01:03] ---**
Yeah, it does. You know what else I heard?
**[01:07] ---**
You know what?
**[01:08] ---**
I hear they're mass-producing
them as military weapons.
**[01:10] ---**
Yeah, and that they'll
soon be in common use.
**[01:13] ---**
Seriously?!
**[01:13] ---**
Seriously, seriously!
**[01:14] ---**
Nonsense.
**[01:18] ---**
Yeah, but there are only seven
Level 5s in Academy City, right?
**[01:22] ---**
I wonder whose clones they are.
**[01:25] ---**
Yeah.
**[01:25] ---**
This is nonsense.
**[01:26] ---**
Ah, you know what?
I heard who it was.
**[01:29] ---**
The Level 5 is
supposedly that "Railgun" girl.
**[01:49] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[01:53] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[01:56] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings
we've built up together*
**[02:06] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*
**[02:13] ---**
*while I am unable to sense your pain*
**[02:19] ---**
*If the dreams you
committed to me that day*
**[02:23] ---**
*end up tearing me apart,*
**[02:26] ---**
*don't ever let go of that hope*
**[02:29] ---**
*more precious than anything else*
**[02:34] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[02:38] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[02:41] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[02:45] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[02:48] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[02:51] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[02:54] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[03:00] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[03:08] ---**
You...
**[03:11] ---**
...are the Original, huh?
**[03:14] ---**
Origi... nal...?
**[03:17] ---**
You must have at least
heard the rumors, right?
**[03:20] ---**
The rumors?
**[03:29] ---**
Hmph, of all things,
**[03:32] ---**
there are curiosity-seekers at
Nagatenjoki Academy, too, huh?
**[03:37] ---**
So, what? Do you know
anything about these rumors--
**[03:45] ---**
You are a middle-schooler.
**[03:47] ---**
I'm a high-schooler.
You will observe my seniority.
**[03:51] ---**
In brief,
**[03:52] ---**
mind your tone with me.
**[03:54] ---**
D-Do you have any
information about these rumors?
**[03:59] ---**
More than you do.
Their substance and objectives
**[04:03] ---**
seem to have changed
considerably since I was there.
**[04:09] ---**
Knowing would
just be painful for you.
**[04:12] ---**
There's nothing you can
do about it yourself, after all.
**[04:16] ---**
I asked you what you knew
about this! And I can't do anything?
**[04:21] ---**
Then does that mean
there's anything *you* can--
**[04:26] ---**
What is it that
you might be able to do?
**[04:29] ---**
I'm just a humble individual, myself.
**[04:31] ---**
Distributing those
Money Cards is part of the plan.
**[04:35] ---**
To eliminate
Academy City's blind spots.
**[04:38] ---**
By placing the Money Cards all over,
**[04:41] ---**
it directs people's attention
to the alleys and back streets
**[04:44] ---**
that the surveillance
cameras don't reach.
**[04:46] ---**
By doing so,
**[04:48] ---**
perhaps I can put a
stop to the "experiments"
**[04:51] ---**
that have to be
taking place there.
**[04:54] ---**
But... I was careless enough
to let myself be spotted
**[04:57] ---**
and then followed back here.
**[05:00] ---**
"Esper Mass-Production Project"
**[05:03] ---**
If they had seen this, it could
have created even more problems.
**[05:08] ---**
Sure enough, leaving anything
physical behind is bad.
**[05:13] ---**
I just took up office here
without asking anyone, either.
**[05:15] ---**
We should get out of here
before these men wake up.
**[05:20] ---**
J-Just a minute!
**[05:24] ---**
...Please.
**[05:26] ---**
What have you been
talking about all this time?
**[05:29] ---**
Just who exactly are you...?
**[05:35] ---**
Indeed... As long as
I'm destroying the evidence,
**[05:38] ---**
you think I should eliminate
the location and witnesses.
**[05:41] ---**
Whoa, I do not!
**[05:43] ---**
L-Let's just get these guys...
**[05:46] ---**
Not my concern.
**[05:47] ---**
Eh?!
**[05:52] ---**
What is it, what is it? Is it a fire?
**[05:55] ---**
Yeah, a small one. Doesn't look
like anyone was hurt, though.
**[06:02] ---**
Shoot! Why that violent girl...!
**[06:06] ---**
She popped me two good ones,
and said nothing I understood...
**[06:14] ---**
Why am I taking anything
she said seriously?
**[06:18] ---**
Aw, what a waste of time.
**[06:20] ---**
I think I'll head home,
take a shower, and get to bed.
**[06:27] ---**
It's nonsense.
**[06:30] ---**
That's what I thought,
every time I heard the rumor.
**[06:33] ---**
There's no way
there could be clones of me.
**[06:38] ---**
But...
**[06:40] ---**
And as such,
the model DNA information
**[06:43] ---**
is indispensable
to cloning technology...
**[06:48] ---**
It's true, I did
once offer my DNA map.
**[06:52] ---**
But that was a long time ago,
and it was for a different purpose.
**[06:56] ---**
I'm sure it was put to good use.
**[06:58] ---**
Besides, soon afterward,
that hospital closed down, and now...
**[07:11] ---**
If she's a Nagatenjoki student,
**[07:14] ---**
once I hack into
the student records...
**[07:19] ---**
Academy City's public telephone
net terminal security is Rank D.
**[07:24] ---**
The data terminals used by the
school faculty are Rank B.
**[07:28] ---**
But by using my ability...
**[07:35] ---**
There she is!
**[07:36] ---**
"Nunotaba Shinobu, high school
3rd-Year, age 17...
**[07:41] ---**
Has distinguished herself in
the field of biological psychiatry
**[07:44] ---**
from the time she was a little girl.
**[07:46] ---**
Spent time with Yamashita
University Hospital Network,
**[07:48] ---**
and Higuchi Pharmaceuticals..."
**[07:51] ---**
Yamashita University?!
That was the one...!
**[07:55] ---**
She was there?
You don't mean, she really was...
**[08:01] ---**
"...and Higuchi Pharmaceuticals,
in a term of research
**[08:05] ---**
at the 7th Research Center,
then re-enrolled in school."
**[08:09] ---**
This is where my DNA map is?
**[08:12] ---**
Knowing would
just be painful for you.
**[08:14] ---**
There's nothing you can
do about it yourself, after all.
**[08:19] ---**
If I ask that scorny-eyed
girl for answers again,
**[08:21] ---**
she may just keep
evading the question, but still...
**[08:25] ---**
All right! I'll go sneak
into the place right now!
**[08:28] ---**
Then again, going in this
uniform would be a bad idea.
**[08:35] ---**
This one, too, please.
**[08:38] ---**
All right. Let's see, that will
be ¥37,000. How are you paying?
**[08:43] ---**
Oh... cash, please.
**[08:47] ---**
Now then, I just need
to find a suitable place to...
**[08:55] ---**
Unfortunately,
all of our single rooms are taken.
**[08:58] ---**
Doubles, however...
**[08:59] ---**
All right, I'll take that, please.
**[09:05] ---**
I'm just going to use it as a
changing room, though. Oh, well.
**[09:13] ---**
Money Cards?
**[09:15] ---**
Yes, Money Cards!
**[09:17] ---**
Misaka helped me find them.
**[09:20] ---**
Now, they say Academy City
is a big place,
**[09:22] ---**
but I'll bet getting this many
in one day has to be a new record.
**[09:26] ---**
When you put them all together,
it adds up to a tidy sum.
**[09:29] ---**
Then, I wonder if I'm rich, too.
**[09:34] ---**
M-Miss Haru'ue, are those...?
**[09:37] ---**
I thought I would learn the
streets before the new term starts,
**[09:40] ---**
and collected these
while I was testing myself.
**[09:44] ---**
I'm home! I know it's late.
**[09:47] ---**
Sorry to ask you to do me this
favor out of the blue, Miss Saten.
**[09:51] ---**
Er, Miss Saten...?
**[09:55] ---**
I lost.
**[09:57] ---**
Um... I-I bought all sorts
of things, so let's have supper!
**[10:02] ---**
Supper!
**[10:03] ---**
"Strawberry Oden"
**[10:04] ---**
Mmm, that smells good.
**[10:06] ---**
Yeah.
**[10:10] ---**
Listen, Uiharu...
**[10:12] ---**
strawberry oden is fine and all,
**[10:14] ---**
but if you'd at least
gotten something cold...
**[10:18] ---**
Cold oden is no oden at all.
**[10:21] ---**
The hot summer is the
best time to have hot meals.
**[10:25] ---**
It's delicious!
**[10:27] ---**
You've broken her spirit.
**[10:34] ---**
These *onigiri* are really good!
**[10:36] ---**
Really?
**[10:36] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[10:37] ---**
Miss Haru'ue, you've been
learning how to cook lately, huh?
**[10:41] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[10:43] ---**
I-I still have much to learn.
**[10:45] ---**
Still, the fish powder and stuff
in this *onigiri* are really tasty!
**[10:50] ---**
You know what? My secret is to
add ginger and oyster sauce.
**[10:54] ---**
It's very delicious.
**[10:57] ---**
Mm-hmm, it goes extremely
well with strawberry oden.
**[11:00] ---**
It complements the strawberries'
sweetness, doesn't it?
**[11:02] ---**
It sure does!
**[11:05] ---**
Now that I think about it,
I used up all the breakfast rice, too.
**[11:09] ---**
That's okay.
We'll just have bread tomorrow.
**[11:13] ---**
But still, it would be nice if
we had a little larger rice cooker.
**[11:17] ---**
You two *do* eat a lot of it, huh?
**[11:20] ---**
Y-You think so?
**[11:22] ---**
Oh, come to think of it, Miss Saten...
**[11:25] ---**
What did you mean by what
you said on the phone earlier?
**[11:29] ---**
Huh? About what?
**[11:31] ---**
About Miss Misaka. Something about
a mistaken identity, or something?
**[11:35] ---**
Oh, that.
**[11:36] ---**
It was nothing, it was nothing.
**[11:38] ---**
I just happened to see
someone who looked like her.
**[11:42] ---**
But then...
**[11:46] ---**
Oh, never mind.
**[11:48] ---**
They say there are three
look-alikes for everyone in the world.
**[11:52] ---**
Maybe I was so convinced
that it was Misaka
**[11:54] ---**
because she was
wearing a Tokiwadai uniform.
**[11:57] ---**
Now that you mention it,
**[11:59] ---**
Miss Misaka and Miss Shirai
are always wearing their uniforms.
**[12:02] ---**
Tokiwadai Middle School
prohibits anything but uniforms,
**[12:05] ---**
even outside of school.
**[12:07] ---**
Isn't that strict?
**[12:09] ---**
You might say so, but to
put it the other way around,
**[12:11] ---**
those uniforms attest
that they are young ladies.
**[12:14] ---**
I can't imagine Miss Misaka
in anything besides her uniform.
**[12:18] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[12:19] ---**
Yeah, but still,
**[12:21] ---**
I'd like to see them in street
clothes once in a while, you know?
**[12:26] ---**
"Higuchi Pharmaceuticals"
"7th Research Center"
**[12:30] ---**
Now then...
**[12:32] ---**
Okay, here I go!
**[12:33] ---**
"#3 Project Radio Noise"
**[12:41] ---**
I must say, the head resident
sure was determined tonight.
**[12:50] ---**
Sissy...
**[12:52] ---**
You certainly are
late tonight, aren't you?
**[12:59] ---**
Sissy!!
**[13:08] ---**
Why, how improper of
me to do something like this.
**[13:13] ---**
But then... it really
has been a long time.
**[13:21] ---**
Sissy!!
**[13:25] ---**
W-What was that? I just
had an awful chill down my back...
**[13:31] ---**
O-Oh, well...
**[13:33] ---**
Transform!
**[13:35] ---**
Magical Powered Kanami--
**[13:37] ---**
H-Huh?
**[13:40] ---**
What's going on here?
**[13:42] ---**
That's strange.
I just barely bought this.
**[13:46] ---**
Tonight, I'm gonna inject a whole bunch of power!
**[13:46] ---**
Oh, that fixed it.
**[14:03] ---**
Gah! I lost again!
**[14:05] ---**
Okay, you get to make rounds.
**[14:08] ---**
Ugh, me again?
**[14:10] ---**
In a facility that has
such airtight security,
**[14:12] ---**
there's no need to
do rounds, is there?
**[14:14] ---**
Go on, stop your
griping and get to it.
**[14:17] ---**
Yeah, yeah.
**[14:21] ---**
Security cameras,
infrared sensors,
**[14:24] ---**
and electronic locks, huh?
**[14:26] ---**
Since all of their security
is electronic, I'll be fine.
**[14:30] ---**
Now, as long as I watch
out for the staff and guards...
**[14:34] ---**
Hmm? That's strange. There are
no departments like I'm looking for?
**[14:39] ---**
No, there is a section that has power,
**[14:41] ---**
but is disconnected from the network.
**[14:45] ---**
I was curious about there only
being cameras in the hallways,
**[14:49] ---**
but I guess they don't
want other departments
**[14:51] ---**
knowing about what
they're researching, huh?
**[14:54] ---**
All right, I think I'll
start by checking in there.
**[14:57] ---**
Who's there?!
**[15:00] ---**
I-I heard some kind of sound...
**[15:03] ---**
Is there somebody over there?!
**[15:05] ---**
Yikes!
**[15:07] ---**
What do I do?
**[15:09] ---**
Worst case, if I shock
him and knock him out,
**[15:11] ---**
I can get myself out of this,
**[15:13] ---**
but if possible, I don't want
to leave any trace that I was here.
**[15:17] ---**
Is there anything...
**[15:22] ---**
Oh...
**[15:24] ---**
A security robot, huh?
**[15:26] ---**
Yeah, sure. There's no way
anyone could be in here.
**[15:29] ---**
Anything out of the ordinary?
**[15:31] ---**
No abnormalities detected.
**[15:32] ---**
All right, all right, keep it up.
**[15:33] ---**
No, huh?
**[15:35] ---**
In that case, I think
I'll skip the rest of the patrol.
**[15:40] ---**
What?!
**[15:41] ---**
Th-The alarm?! What the hell?!
**[15:43] ---**
How come?!
**[15:44] ---**
The sensors shouldn't be picking
me up! Did I miss something?
**[15:48] ---**
For now, at least...
**[15:53] ---**
Whoa! W-What's the matter?!
**[15:55] ---**
H-Hey!
**[16:02] ---**
What do I do?
**[16:04] ---**
Give up on tonight
and get out of here? No...
**[16:07] ---**
It doesn't appear to
be me that they found,
**[16:10] ---**
and in all this confusion,
it could instead be my big chance.
**[16:13] ---**
All right... proceed!
**[16:17] ---**
Hey! What the hell is going on?!
**[16:20] ---**
Sorry, sorry!
**[16:21] ---**
I forgot we had visitors today.
**[16:22] ---**
What? It's too loud to hear!
**[16:24] ---**
Hurry up and turn it off!
**[16:29] ---**
At last, it stopped.
**[16:32] ---**
Who's there?!
**[16:40] ---**
Let's see... over here.
**[16:50] ---**
What are those?
**[16:54] ---**
Incubators? Big enough
for people to fit inside.
**[17:04] ---**
What do you want?
**[17:06] ---**
You aren't... lost, are you?
**[17:09] ---**
How exactly did you get in here?
**[17:12] ---**
Oh, never mind about her.
**[17:14] ---**
I got word that she was coming.
**[17:17] ---**
She's here to clear her
data for that frozen project.
**[17:21] ---**
The idiot watchman
forgot to give her a staff card.
**[17:24] ---**
While you're at it, escort
her to the secret base for me.
**[17:28] ---**
Oh, is *that* what all this was about?
**[17:32] ---**
Here, put this on.
**[17:36] ---**
There are traces of
a number of erased files...
**[17:39] ---**
...but I can restore those.
**[17:46] ---**
It can't be...
**[17:51] ---**
"The goal of this
project will be to resolve
**[17:54] ---**
the genetic sequence pattern
that gives rise to a Level 5,
**[17:57] ---**
allowing a Level 5
that is born by chance
**[17:59] ---**
to then be produced with
100-percent certainty. Further...
**[18:05] ---**
...for this project, it is decided
that... Railgun--Misaka Mikoto,
**[18:11] ---**
will be the model...
**[18:14] ---**
There's some kind
of story about a project
**[18:16] ---**
where they're trying to
make clones of Level 5s.
**[18:18] ---**
Oh, don't play dumb.
**[18:20] ---**
Misaka, you were walking in
front of Seventh Mist, weren't you?
**[18:25] ---**
Then there really is...
**[18:27] ---**
...a project...
**[18:29] ---**
...to clone me...
**[18:32] ---**
To create a Railgun,
we employ a fertilized egg,
**[18:36] ---**
using a cell extracted
from Railgun's hair follicle.
**[18:41] ---**
Prior to this,
**[18:43] ---**
we obtained the necessary
genetic sequence pattern sample,
**[18:47] ---**
successfully registering her DNA
map in Academy City's databank.
**[18:53] ---**
In order to shorten the
time required to secure a test
**[18:57] ---**
subject, it is necessary to curtail
the developmental process
**[19:01] ---**
of both the body
and the persona.
**[19:03] ---**
As for the former,
ZID-02, RIZ-13,
**[19:08] ---**
and HEL-03 is administered,
and in roughly fourteen days,
**[19:13] ---**
we successfully formed a subject
physically identical to Railgun.
**[19:17] ---**
As for the latter, this was dealt with
**[19:20] ---**
under the direction of external
staff member Nunotaba Shinobu,
**[19:24] ---**
using Testament to install
basic information within the brain.
**[19:28] ---**
With everything in readiness,
**[19:30] ---**
once the results
had been confirmed,
**[19:32] ---**
the project was set to
move on to the next phase,
**[19:35] ---**
that of the mass-production of Sisters...
**[19:38] ---**
This is what they were after from the start?!
**[19:42] ---**
Would you like to
offer your DNA map to us?
**[19:47] ---**
If only that...
**[19:49] ---**
If only that had
never happened... but...
**[19:55] ---**
However...
**[19:56] ---**
...at the final stage of the project,
**[19:58] ---**
as a result of the projections
calculated by Tree Diagram,
**[20:02] ---**
an unforeseen circumstance
became evident.
**[20:04] ---**
Tree Diagram?
**[20:06] ---**
You mean, Academy City's
greatest supercomputer,
**[20:09] ---**
hovering up there in orbit?
**[20:12] ---**
The Sisters' specs
**[20:14] ---**
were less than one percent
of the model Railgun's.
**[20:18] ---**
Their ratings fell at
average around Level 2,
**[20:22] ---**
and even the most powerful
individuals did not exceed Level 3.
**[20:26] ---**
They could only produce
deteriorated versions of me?
**[20:30] ---**
Even if they'd mass-produced
a lot of Level 2s...
**[20:33] ---**
Regardless of genetic manipulation
or acquired development,
**[20:36] ---**
it was impossible to produce
a Level 5 from the clones.
**[20:41] ---**
Thus, having received
Tree Diagram's computed results,
**[20:45] ---**
and to minimize the
losses incurred on this project,
**[20:49] ---**
the committee ordered
all of the research in progress
**[20:52] ---**
to be terminated at once.
**[20:55] ---**
The Railgun mass-production
project "Sisters" was halted,
**[20:58] ---**
"frozen in perpetuity."
**[20:58] ---**
and is frozen in perpetuity.
**[21:12] ---**
Oh...
**[21:14] ---**
Sure enough, there aren't
any clones of me, are there?
**[21:18] ---**
I'm sure word of this
cockamamie project leaked out,
**[21:23] ---**
and the rumor mill
took care of the rest.
**[21:26] ---**
Whew...
But still, it's a bit chilling.
**[21:29] ---**
Imagine, using my
DNA map from back then...
**[21:38] ---**
Well, I guess what's past is past.
**[21:44] ---**
Now, I think I'll head home.
**[21:47] ---**
I wonder if Kuroko managed
to trick the head resident for me.
**[22:03] ---**
Hey, how much longer is
this procedure going to take?
**[22:07] ---**
"Total deletion will require
another 42.28 seconds,"
**[22:11] ---**
reports Misaka, with the precise time.
**[22:29] ---**
*While looking up
into an unfamiliar sky,*
**[22:35] ---**
*always, always walking with you*
**[22:41] ---**
*I was searching for
the future I thought I saw,*
**[22:47] ---**
*so unlike the one up until a day ago*
**[22:53] ---**
*When you touched my heart,
convinced by my blurred vision,*
**[23:02] ---**
*that I was wandering*
**[23:05] ---**
*everything started changing*
**[23:09] ---**
*After counting clouds until I grew
bored of it, they drifted far away again*
**[23:16] ---**
*I went after them, and found
my dreams for tomorrow*
**[23:21] ---**
*Assured that it's now or never,
your feelings get through to me*
**[23:28] ---**
*and someday, I'm sure,
I'll offer mine, too*
**[23:34] ---**
*Like the clouds, gently, gently,*
**[23:39] ---**
*moving forever, forever forward*
**[23:47] ---**
"Next episode preview"
**[23:48] ---**
Sure, there aren't any clones of me, are there?
**[23:48] ---**
"#4 Sisters"
**[23:51] ---**
Ah, that's a weight off my chest!
**[23:52] ---**
Sissy, as if your bust wasn't petite enough,
**[23:54] ---**
if you take away more away--
**[23:56] ---**
I don't mean *that* kind of weight!

"Three months earlier"
**[00:23] ---**
Wow!
**[00:25] ---**
After just two weeks,
she's already gotten so big!
**[00:29] ---**
Well, that's the ZID-02 and
so forth, to stimulate her growth.
**[00:35] ---**
But you've been through training, right?
**[00:37] ---**
Then you should already
be cognizant of this much.
**[00:40] ---**
S-Sorry. Yes, I did know about it.
**[00:44] ---**
But after seeing the real deal,
I just got excited.
**[00:48] ---**
Let's get started.
**[00:49] ---**
R-Right!
**[00:51] ---**
I'll go get ready right now.
**[01:14] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[01:18] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[01:21] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings
we've built up together*
**[01:31] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*
**[01:38] ---**
*while I am unable to sense your pain*
**[01:44] ---**
*If the dreams you
committed to me that day*
**[01:48] ---**
*end up tearing me apart,*
**[01:51] ---**
*don't ever let go of that hope*
**[01:54] ---**
*more precious than anything else*
**[01:59] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[02:03] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[02:06] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[02:10] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[02:13] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[02:16] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[02:19] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[02:25] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[02:34] ---**
The sun streaming through
those leaves is so bright!
**[02:37] ---**
I know I should
be worried about sunburn,
**[02:39] ---**
but it just doesn't feel like
summer otherwise, you know?
**[02:44] ---**
Ah, a cicada shell.
**[02:46] ---**
I have never seen
Sissy acting so gross.
**[02:49] ---**
There's still some time
before we're supposed to meet up.
**[02:56] ---**
Kuroko!
**[02:57] ---**
Oh, yes?
**[02:59] ---**
What would you like?
**[03:00] ---**
It's my treat!
**[03:02] ---**
Wha--?
**[03:03] ---**
The busted-down vending machine
that she always spin-kicks?
**[03:07] ---**
And what's more,
she's paying for mine, too?
**[03:09] ---**
Hmm?
**[03:10] ---**
A-All right, an iced coffee, please.
**[03:16] ---**
I-I am so sorry!
**[03:19] ---**
By no means did I mean to
dive headlong into your breasts,
**[03:21] ---**
or do anything with
an unclean conscience!
**[03:25] ---**
Yeah, I know.
**[03:27] ---**
You should be more careful.
**[03:30] ---**
Now then, what should I get?
**[03:33] ---**
S-Something is wrong!
**[03:36] ---**
What has come over my fair Sissy?
C-Could she be an impostor?
**[03:42] ---**
All right, I'll get the coconut cider.
**[03:47] ---**
Sissy, you are wearing orange
polka-dotted underwear today
**[03:50] ---**
with a winking Gekota-aaah!
**[03:54] ---**
Where did *that* come from,
out of nowhere?
**[03:56] ---**
N-No, i-it is really you...
**[03:59] ---**
Ah, there they are!
**[04:01] ---**
Sorry to keep you waiting.
**[04:03] ---**
What are you doing?
**[04:05] ---**
She's golden brown...
**[04:08] ---**
So, where should we start today?
**[04:11] ---**
I've got a few things to
buy for my regional field trip.
**[04:17] ---**
Ah, come to mention it,
it's not far off, huh?
**[04:20] ---**
Miss Misaka, where are you all going?
**[04:23] ---**
I think it was called "Liberal Arts City"--
**[04:24] ---**
You mean, the artificial
island in California?
**[04:28] ---**
Uh, mm-hmm.
**[04:29] ---**
That's the same as us!
**[04:31] ---**
It is?
**[04:32] ---**
Is that right?
We're in the same group!
**[04:35] ---**
Well, that means the five of us
can have fun together there, too!
**[04:37] ---**
We'll eat our meals together,
and go shopping...
**[04:40] ---**
Oh yeah, and there's the beach, too, huh?
**[04:42] ---**
Wow, I'm starting to get excited about this!
**[04:45] ---**
Maybe I'll get a new swimsuit!
**[04:48] ---**
Then again, there are a lot
of other things I need to buy first.
**[04:53] ---**
If only I had those
money cards at a time like this...
**[04:57] ---**
Oh, come on, Miss Saten!
**[04:58] ---**
I know! I was just kidding.
Come to mention it,
**[05:02] ---**
what's happened
with the case since before?
**[05:04] ---**
It has been so soon,
of course nothing new has developed.
**[05:08] ---**
Oh...
**[05:09] ---**
You're a bit obsessed with it, huh?
**[05:11] ---**
Hmm... I *am* kind of hooked on it.
**[05:14] ---**
It's like there's a larger case
hiding behind it, or something.
**[05:17] ---**
Are you basing that on anything?
**[05:20] ---**
Just my instincts as
an urban legend hunter!
**[05:22] ---**
You are starting
with that again, are you?
**[05:24] ---**
Again? What do you mean, again?!
**[05:26] ---**
Such as what, for example?
**[05:27] ---**
Is there really another case?
**[05:29] ---**
No there isn't, Miss Haru'ue.
**[05:31] ---**
This is another one of
Miss Saten's typical jokes.
**[05:32] ---**
Whoa--Uiharu?!
**[05:34] ---**
Let's drop the subject,
why don't we?
**[05:38] ---**
Come on, let's go, everyone!
Time's a-wasting!
**[05:41] ---**
Huh? Sissy!
**[05:47] ---**
Ah, all done!
**[05:49] ---**
Is that all you're getting?
**[05:50] ---**
Mm-hmm. I just wanted to buy
more of something I was short on.
**[05:53] ---**
What about the rest of you?
**[05:55] ---**
Oh, well...
**[05:57] ---**
A rice cooker?
**[05:58] ---**
Yes. Ever since Miss Haru'ue
became my roommate,
**[06:01] ---**
we've started cooking for ourselves.
**[06:03] ---**
Huh? But you have one, right?
**[06:05] ---**
Of course we have one, but...
**[06:07] ---**
Oh, now that you mention it,
you said it was too small yesterday.
**[06:11] ---**
Yes.
**[06:12] ---**
I'm so sorry.
**[06:14] ---**
Oh, I'm not blaming you,
Miss Haru'ue! I eat a lot, too!
**[06:18] ---**
Yeah, yeah! Uiharu
can be quite the glutton!
**[06:21] ---**
Miss Saten!
**[06:22] ---**
Hey!
**[06:24] ---**
How about this one?
**[06:27] ---**
It looks pretty amazing.
**[06:29] ---**
It sure does. Then again,
**[06:32] ---**
it's not really in our budget.
**[06:32] ---**
Yes, can't you come down a bit?
**[06:34] ---**
You know, I'm just saying...
**[06:36] ---**
How could I say no?
**[06:37] ---**
Sissy...?
**[06:43] ---**
Huh?
**[06:45] ---**
Wow... We bought a really nice one!
**[06:49] ---**
Who would have guessed that
Miss Misaka had such bargaining power?
**[06:53] ---**
We can start our dream life of
cooking at home, Miss Haru'ue!
**[06:57] ---**
We'll have yummy food!
**[06:57] ---**
Wow...
**[06:58] ---**
There sure are a lot of them, huh?
**[07:00] ---**
Aren't there? This place
has a huge assortment of things!
**[07:05] ---**
W-What is this?
**[07:08] ---**
But these would be just
too cute! I couldn't eat them!
**[07:14] ---**
J-Just kidding! Of course,
that wouldn't be true!
**[07:24] ---**
Well? Miss Haru'ue,
do you see a swimsuit you like?
**[07:29] ---**
Well, there are so
many of them, I can't choose.
**[07:32] ---**
I've never picked out a
swimsuit for myself before.
**[07:36] ---**
Well, I'll give you a hand!
**[07:39] ---**
I'm opening up!
**[07:41] ---**
Well?
**[07:43] ---**
I think it might be a little too childish.
**[07:46] ---**
You think so?
**[07:47] ---**
Well...?
**[07:49] ---**
This one is still a little childish.
**[07:51] ---**
Huh? Really?
**[07:53] ---**
Then try this one, next!
**[07:54] ---**
Miss Misaka is a bit hyper today, huh?
**[07:56] ---**
That one, too.
**[07:57] ---**
Oh. Well, how about *this* one?
**[07:58] ---**
You think so, too, Uiharu?
**[08:00] ---**
Did she have something good
happen to her, or anything?
**[08:02] ---**
And this one?
**[08:06] ---**
Isn't it nice that we got
such a good one, Miss Haru'ue?
**[08:09] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[08:10] ---**
Ah, come to think of it,
this is where I saw "you," Misaka.
**[08:15] ---**
Oh, you mean the look-alike?
Are you still going on about that?
**[08:20] ---**
I'm telling you, it really
did look like you. She might be...
**[08:24] ---**
There's a possibility that
she's your doppelganger, Misaka!
**[08:31] ---**
Oh, yeah!
**[08:33] ---**
Speaking of look-alikes,
I heard a rumor from Miss Konori.
**[08:36] ---**
Something to do with using
cloning technology to make Level 5s...
**[08:42] ---**
I mean... um...
**[08:46] ---**
Clones, huh?
**[08:48] ---**
As far as Academy City
rumors go, that one is right up there.
**[08:52] ---**
If I had my own clone...
**[08:56] ---**
Miss Saten, what would you do?
**[08:58] ---**
If it were me... Let's see...
**[09:02] ---**
I think I'd split my summer
vacation homework with her.
**[09:05] ---**
If I left mine in our room,
I could fool the head resident.
**[09:09] ---**
I could eat enough for two people.
**[09:12] ---**
That's a great idea! If you
ever can't choose from a menu,
**[09:15] ---**
you could get two things!
**[09:17] ---**
No, no, both of you
could only eat half a serving.
**[09:21] ---**
She's right.
**[09:22] ---**
Oh, yeah...
**[09:24] ---**
What would you do, Sissy...
**[09:27] ---**
...if a clone of yourself were to show up?
**[09:37] ---**
Good question...
**[09:46] ---**
She looks like a real person.
**[09:49] ---**
Well, sure she does.
**[09:51] ---**
She's a clone,
who was made to look that way.
**[10:05] ---**
As you can see, in her condition,
her mental age is that of a newborn.
**[10:09] ---**
She can't understand language,
nor can she even walk by herself.
**[10:16] ---**
What are you doing?
**[10:17] ---**
Huh? Oh, I was thinking,
she might catch a cold like this.
**[10:22] ---**
You won't have time to worry
about that for much longer.
**[10:25] ---**
Word is we're creating
the rest of them in one batch.
**[10:31] ---**
Language, motor skills,
and ethical data
**[10:35] ---**
are input like this using
Testament, whereby the data
**[10:38] ---**
is transmitted electrically
via all five senses,
**[10:40] ---**
forcibly writing itself into her brain.
**[10:43] ---**
Are you keeping up so far?
**[10:46] ---**
Um, about what you said earlier...
**[10:48] ---**
What?
**[10:49] ---**
Isn't this inefficient?
Without repeated conditioning,
**[10:53] ---**
it's not going to take that well, is it?
**[10:55] ---**
Shouldn't they make them
in series, according to usage?
**[10:58] ---**
The higher-ups have
their own way of thinking.
**[11:01] ---**
All we can do is proceed
according to their orders.
**[11:09] ---**
Aw, is the day over already?
**[11:12] ---**
At this rate, summer vacation
will be over all too soon.
**[11:15] ---**
Out in the world,
it's Obon festival time, huh?
**[11:18] ---**
Oh, yeah. It's that time of year, is it?
**[11:21] ---**
Here in Academy City,
it doesn't really feel like it, huh?
**[11:24] ---**
Barely anyone goes back home for it.
**[11:27] ---**
It's nice, though, isn't it?
As a result, we can all be together.
**[11:30] ---**
Yes, you're right.
**[11:31] ---**
Let's enjoy ourselves. There is still...
**[11:36] ---**
"#4 Sisters"
**[11:36] ---**
...plenty of summer ahead of us.
**[11:41] ---**
Breakfast, at this hour?
**[11:43] ---**
Well aren't you
living the good life, Misaka.
**[11:46] ---**
Why not? I don't have
anything to do today, after all.
**[11:49] ---**
What are Shirai and the others up to?
**[11:52] ---**
Kuroko and Miss Uiharu
**[11:53] ---**
have been roped into a
Judgment summer recruiting function.
**[11:57] ---**
Miss Saten and the
others said they had plans.
**[11:59] ---**
If you've got this much
free time on your hands,
**[12:02] ---**
you've got quite the
lonesome adolescence, huh?
**[12:04] ---**
Who asked you?
**[12:06] ---**
It doesn't matter to me,
just hurry up and eat.
**[12:09] ---**
Otherwise, I'll never be able
to get everything straightened up.
**[12:12] ---**
Huh? At least let me eat at my leisure.
**[12:15] ---**
Do you really not have anything to do?
**[12:20] ---**
Anything to do, huh?
**[12:25] ---**
H-How come...?
**[12:31] ---**
Ugh... Nothing's worse
than the letdown you get
**[12:34] ---**
when you're poised
to browse your magazine,
**[12:36] ---**
but it's the same double issue
from the week before.
**[12:39] ---**
Aw, I've got nothing to do.
**[12:41] ---**
Really?
**[12:46] ---**
W-What?
**[12:48] ---**
Y-You're that girl who was
looking for your bag that one time.
**[12:54] ---**
If you've got time,
come and play with us!
**[12:58] ---**
N-No, I'm kind of busy...
**[13:01] ---**
You fibber! You just said
you had nothing to do!
**[13:03] ---**
Yep!
**[13:10] ---**
What choice do I have, huh?
Okay, Big Sister will hang out with you.
**[13:14] ---**
Hooray!
**[13:15] ---**
Ha! "Big Sister," she says!
**[13:17] ---**
You said it.
**[13:18] ---**
What should we play?
**[13:18] ---**
She's at the age where she
thinks she's a grown-up.
**[13:19] ---**
Yeah, what should we do?
**[13:21] ---**
Good question...
**[13:24] ---**
Wait up!
**[13:25] ---**
Give your elders their due!
**[13:29] ---**
Rats! She got us again!
**[13:32] ---**
Go on, hurry and get away!
**[13:33] ---**
You can't go kicking it that far!
**[13:35] ---**
Do you *always* go all-out
against grade-schoolers?!
**[13:38] ---**
Oh? But I'm a child,
just like you guys, right?
**[13:42] ---**
You goony devil! You subhuman!
**[13:45] ---**
Sticks and stones--
**[13:46] ---**
Shorts-wearing tramp!
**[13:49] ---**
What did you call me, you little brat?!
**[13:54] ---**
Is this the mouth that
that smart-talk came out of?
**[13:57] ---**
Cut it out, tramp!
**[14:01] ---**
Someday, I'll become a Level 5,
and then I'll get back at you!
**[14:05] ---**
I'll take you on whenever you like.
**[14:07] ---**
Hey...
**[14:09] ---**
Big Sister, you're a
bigshot electrical user, right?
**[14:13] ---**
I guess.
**[14:14] ---**
Then you're the same as Nao, huh?
**[14:17] ---**
Is that right?
**[14:18] ---**
Mm-hmm. But...
**[14:25] ---**
Try as I might,
that's about all I can do.
**[14:28] ---**
That's true of
everyone at the beginning.
**[14:30] ---**
After you practice,
you'll be able to do all sorts of things.
**[14:33] ---**
Then will Nao be able to
cellphone with you, Big Sister?
**[14:37] ---**
"Cellphone"?
**[14:38] ---**
Use electricity to talk to each other.
**[14:40] ---**
Oh, no, no.
**[14:42] ---**
Far from talking to them, I can't
even tell where the person *is*.
**[14:46] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[14:51] ---**
If there's no interference,
**[14:53] ---**
like if we were at sea,
it might be possible...
**[14:58] ---**
...but here in the city, where EM
waves are flying around all over,
**[15:01] ---**
there's just too much noise.
**[15:04] ---**
Hmm? Oh...
**[15:07] ---**
Then again, there are
the cases of the Level Uppers,
**[15:10] ---**
and as long as the brainwaves'
waveforms are close,
**[15:13] ---**
they might be able to
construct a network... but then...
**[15:17] ---**
...like that will ever happen.
**[15:23] ---**
Hello.
**[15:24] ---**
Do you understand what that means?
**[15:26] ---**
"The instigation of daily conversation,
**[15:29] ---**
otherwise called
a greeting," affirms Misaka.
**[15:33] ---**
What is your specimen number?
**[15:35] ---**
Number 9982.
**[15:38] ---**
You are plugged right
into the Misaka Net, all right.
**[15:41] ---**
Let's start by putting this on.
**[15:48] ---**
U-Um...
**[15:50] ---**
Parading around so openly like this
**[15:52] ---**
is starting to
make me uncomfortable.
**[15:55] ---**
Oh?
**[15:56] ---**
Couldn't we maybe add a
little bit of a sense of shame?
**[16:00] ---**
If we add any unnecessary emotions,
**[16:02] ---**
and they start rebelling,
that becomes a problem.
**[16:05] ---**
The "safety devices"
aren't exactly perfect, after all.
**[16:08] ---**
Is... that right...?
**[16:10] ---**
Yeah. And we don't have the skills
it takes to add emotions anyhow.
**[16:15] ---**
Take this machine--
**[16:17] ---**
It was overseen by
Nuno-something-or-other, the girl genius,
**[16:20] ---**
and she just barely
managed to get it functioning.
**[16:23] ---**
Oh...
**[16:32] ---**
Children sure have energy.
**[16:34] ---**
I'm starting to get sweaty.
**[16:40] ---**
Young lady!
**[16:41] ---**
From whom did you get that badge?!
**[16:44] ---**
Huh? From the vending
machines in the shopping district.
**[16:54] ---**
It's the turn the knob to
drop the capsule type, huh?
**[16:58] ---**
It's far too analog for
my abilities to come into play.
**[17:02] ---**
But even so...!
**[17:16] ---**
Look at that.
**[17:17] ---**
A girl from Tokiwadai is playing
those vending machines.
**[17:19] ---**
You're right. I'm sure she must
be buying them for those children.
**[17:22] ---**
I haven't gotten a single one...
**[17:25] ---**
Sorry, but can you get me some change?
**[17:27] ---**
Huh? Why *me*...!?
**[17:30] ---**
Don't defy her.
She has a scary look in her eye.
**[17:33] ---**
Y-Yeah...
**[17:39] ---**
There wasn't a single one, huh?
**[17:42] ---**
Um... If you want to, I'll trade--
**[17:45] ---**
Oh, yeah! There are
more in front of the train station!
**[18:00] ---**
Good for you!
**[18:01] ---**
Thank you!
**[18:03] ---**
Thank goodness.
Really, thank goodness.
**[18:06] ---**
I'll go get some bags or something.
**[18:08] ---**
Oh, me too!
**[18:09] ---**
Well, now that I've finally gotten it...
**[18:13] ---**
What am I going to use this for?
**[18:16] ---**
Have you ever gotten
that collector's fever,
**[18:18] ---**
where you want to obtain
every tie-in product there is
**[18:21] ---**
for some product you like,
and go out of control,
**[18:23] ---**
not considering the consequences?
**[18:26] ---**
Even I know that attaching
it to my clothing, like this girl,
**[18:29] ---**
is out of the question.
For that matter,
**[18:32] ---**
I can just imagine the pitiful
look that Kuroko will give me
**[18:35] ---**
when she sees this.
**[18:37] ---**
Again?
**[18:38] ---**
Yeah, but on a bag,
it's just barely... cool? Cool, right?
**[18:42] ---**
Ah! Look at the time!
**[18:44] ---**
We have to go home now.
**[18:49] ---**
My whole day...
**[18:55] ---**
Hey, if you go under the water,
**[18:57] ---**
how long can you hold your breath?
**[18:58] ---**
We played all day today!
**[18:59] ---**
I can go for one minute!
**[19:00] ---**
Just because it's summer vacation,
**[19:00] ---**
Huh? Really?! A whole minute?!
**[19:02] ---**
you can't just play around
**[19:04] ---**
You have to do your homework, too--
**[19:12] ---**
What's the matter, Big Sister?
**[19:17] ---**
Oh, mm-mm, nothing at all.
**[19:20] ---**
Come on, let's go.
**[19:22] ---**
"Boarding"
**[19:26] ---**
Well, goodbye, Big Sister.
**[19:27] ---**
Thanks for playing today.
**[19:29] ---**
Sure, sure.
**[19:30] ---**
Be careful going home, now.
**[19:32] ---**
Right!
**[19:42] ---**
What was that sensation earlier?
**[19:46] ---**
A power very similar to mine... no,
**[19:49] ---**
it was like my
very own power was emitted,
**[19:51] ---**
and washed over me from the outside in...
**[19:56] ---**
It's not possible!
**[19:59] ---**
It's not possible... but...
**[20:02] ---**
...but...!
**[20:07] ---**
Let's see...
**[20:14] ---**
Hmm... that looks about right.
**[20:19] ---**
And now...
**[20:27] ---**
Muscle strength, stamina, and
cardiovascular capacity check out.
**[20:33] ---**
Now, if you pass your
interpersonal response test,
**[20:36] ---**
you can move on to your external training.
**[20:39] ---**
Misaka already mastered how
to order a hamburger
**[20:42] ---**
through how to turn down a con man.
**[20:45] ---**
She is confident that she
can blend in with outside people,
**[20:49] ---**
so she has some concern
about the necessity of such a test.
**[20:52] ---**
There are times on the outside
**[20:54] ---**
when what you learned
using Testament will not work.
**[20:58] ---**
Besides, the chances of
you running into the Original
**[21:01] ---**
are greater than zero.
**[21:03] ---**
Well, even so, it should
not interfere with the experiment.
**[21:08] ---**
What is the Original?
**[21:11] ---**
Good question.
**[21:12] ---**
She's the model for the Sisters.
If I had to say,
**[21:16] ---**
she's kind of like your "older sister."
**[21:20] ---**
Older sister...
**[21:28] ---**
I know it came from around here...
**[21:54] ---**
Y-You're...
**[22:09] ---**
*While looking up
into an unfamiliar sky,*
**[22:15] ---**
*always, always walking with you*
**[22:20] ---**
*I was searching for
the future I thought I saw,*
**[22:27] ---**
*so unlike the one up until a day ago*
**[22:33] ---**
*When you touched my heart,
convinced by my blurred vision,*
**[22:41] ---**
*that I was wandering*
**[22:45] ---**
*everything started changing*
**[22:49] ---**
*After counting clouds until I grew
bored of it, they drifted far away again*
**[22:55] ---**
*I went after them, and found
my dreams for tomorrow*
**[23:01] ---**
*Assured that it's now or never,
your feelings get through to me*
**[23:07] ---**
*and someday, I'm sure,
I'll offer mine, too*
**[23:13] ---**
*Like the clouds, gently, gently,*
**[23:19] ---**
*moving forever, forever forward*
**[23:26] ---**
Hmm... Now for your clothing.
**[23:30] ---**
You've been provided
with a set, so put them on.
**[23:33] ---**
Oh, uh, before you do,
**[23:36] ---**
would you mind cleaning those up,
**[23:40] ---**
before the next experiment starts?
**[23:45] ---**
Acknowledged.
**[23:47] ---**

**[23:48] ---**
What is this? The same face? The same hair?
**[23:48] ---**
"#5 Project Level 6 Shift"
**[23:51] ---**
She looks the same as me from A to Z!
**[23:53] ---**
Just who are you?!
**[23:54] ---**
Sissy? What are you doing in
front of that full-length mirror?

**[00:22] ---**
I know it came from around here...
**[00:46] ---**
Y-You're...
**[00:50] ---**
Who are you...?
**[00:53] ---**
*Meow*.
**[00:58] ---**
Huh?
**[01:12] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[01:16] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[01:19] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings
we've built up together*
**[01:29] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*
**[01:36] ---**
*while I am unable to sense your pain*
**[01:42] ---**
*If the dreams you
committed to me that day*
**[01:46] ---**
*end up tearing me apart,*
**[01:49] ---**
*don't ever let go of that hope*
**[01:52] ---**
*more precious than anything else*
**[01:57] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[02:01] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[02:04] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[02:08] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[02:11] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[02:14] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[02:17] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[02:23] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[02:32] ---**
"Mya"?
**[02:33] ---**
W-What does that mean?
Is her name Mya?
**[02:37] ---**
Is she with an organization called Mya?
Or did I just mishear her?
**[02:40] ---**
Is it possible she wasn't
speaking Japanese?
**[02:42] ---**
...says the four-legged
creature who is in trouble.
**[02:47] ---**
(meow)
**[02:49] ---**
A cat?
**[02:50] ---**
"Earlier, while passing by this way,
I discovered a baby
**[02:54] ---**
that was left inside a car
that was parked on the street.
**[02:59] ---**
Since there was
the danger of heat stroke,
**[03:02] ---**
Misaka used her electrical power
**[03:03] ---**
to unlock the door and
open the window, but then...
**[03:08] ---**
The startled creature
climbed up the tree,
**[03:12] ---**
and became unable to
come back down,"
**[03:15] ---**
says Misaka,
kindly explaining the situation.
**[03:19] ---**
Ah... Wait, none of that really matters!
**[03:23] ---**
I asked you who you were, didn't I?!
**[03:26] ---**
"Apparently, it has gotten into
an even more precarious situation.
**[03:30] ---**
Are you certain
we should not help," asks--
**[03:33] ---**
He may be small, but he's a cat,
so he'll be fine at that height!
**[03:37] ---**
Never mind him--
**[03:37] ---**
Is that so?
**[03:39] ---**
Big Sister, you are
saying that you do not care
**[03:41] ---**
if that creature is slammed
against the ground, then?
**[03:46] ---**
And if as a result, it is badly hurt,
becomes functionally impaired,
**[03:50] ---**
such that its vital
activities are suspended,
**[03:53] ---**
it is not your concern?
**[03:57] ---**
Ugh, all right!
What do you want me to do?
**[04:01] ---**
"If you get on all
fours and I climb up,
**[04:04] ---**
I believe I will
just barely reach,"
**[04:06] ---**
proposes Misaka.
**[04:08] ---**
Well, it's true, there's nothing
else around to use as a base.
**[04:17] ---**
Huh? What am
I doing on the bottom?
**[04:19] ---**
Big Sister, a little farther left.
**[04:22] ---**
Don't be crazy!
**[04:29] ---**
L-Look, you...!
**[04:31] ---**
I managed to safely secure it, says--
**[04:35] ---**
H-Hey, come on! What are
you holding your skirt up for?!
**[04:39] ---**
You're a nice young lady!
You're a nice young lady!
**[04:41] ---**
If you're going to share
my face, you've got to...
**[04:51] ---**
O-On closer look, he's a
very cute kiddy-kitty, isn't he?
**[04:55] ---**
Kiddy-kitty?
**[04:56] ---**
He's a cat's little kid,
so he's a kiddy-kitty.
**[04:58] ---**
It's too bad he's
spooked by me, though.
**[05:01] ---**
They react to the
slight electrical field
**[05:03] ---**
that is produced by my body.
**[05:10] ---**
It looks like Misaka does, as well.
**[05:16] ---**
No, this isn't what I meant!
**[05:19] ---**
You keep saying "Big Sister"
and "Misaka"! Are you... my...
**[05:24] ---**
...c-clone, then?
**[05:27] ---**
Yes.
**[05:29] ---**
Just like that...
**[05:33] ---**
I thought that project was
supposed to have been frozen.
**[05:37] ---**
Why... does someone
like you even exist?
**[05:42] ---**
"ZXC741...
**[05:44] ---**
ASD852... QWE963-Dash,"
**[05:48] ---**
replies Misaka,
seeking password confirmation.
**[05:52] ---**
Huh?
**[05:53] ---**
Sure enough, Big Sister,
you are not involved in the experiment.
**[05:58] ---**
I cannot answer the question you asked.
**[06:03] ---**
Who is in charge of this project?
**[06:05] ---**
That is a confidential matter.
**[06:08] ---**
For what reason were you created?
**[06:10] ---**
That is classified.
**[06:16] ---**
Do you want to get hurt?
If I have to force it out of you...
**[06:29] ---**
Fine. Get going.
**[06:32] ---**
I'll just follow after you on my own.
**[06:34] ---**
I'm sure you'll head back to some
facility or laboratory sometime.
**[06:39] ---**
Once there, I'll snatch up
your manufacturer,
**[06:41] ---**
and get my answers straight from them.
**[07:02] ---**
Sisters...
**[07:05] ---**
If she wasn't right
here in front of my face,
**[07:07] ---**
I'd find it pretty hard to believe.
**[07:10] ---**
No...
**[07:11] ---**
Actually, for a long time now,
in the back of my mind,
**[07:15] ---**
I've been scared that someday,
**[07:18] ---**
a clone who looked
just like me would show up.
**[07:22] ---**
However...
**[07:25] ---**
That it should be... *this*...
**[07:29] ---**
It's not exactly what I imagined.
**[07:34] ---**
I pictured it as more of a black op,
**[07:36] ---**
where there's a plot
to put the subject to death,
**[07:38] ---**
and then replace
them with the other one.
**[07:41] ---**
Man, this is completely throwing me off.
**[07:48] ---**
"Sister-S"!
**[07:50] ---**
J-Just a minute!
**[07:53] ---**
Hey, just a minute, I said!
**[07:55] ---**
I know it sounds crazy,
**[07:57] ---**
but there aren't another five
or ten others like you, are there?
**[08:03] ---**
"Kiddy-kitty."
**[08:05] ---**
Whether you say it forwards
or backwards, it's "kiddy-kitty."
**[08:09] ---**
Hey, don't give me
any nonsense; answer me!
**[08:12] ---**
"Kiddy-kitty."
**[08:13] ---**
No, I just told you...!
**[08:17] ---**
Aw, for Pete's sake...!
**[08:18] ---**
Hey, you two twins!
**[08:22] ---**
It's not good for sisters to fight.
**[08:24] ---**
She's not my sister!
**[08:25] ---**
Hey, now, you shouldn't
ever say that, even in jest.
**[08:29] ---**
Hold on a second.
**[08:35] ---**
Here you are!
**[08:36] ---**
Huh?
**[08:37] ---**
These are my blue-ribbon flavors!
**[08:39] ---**
I'm letting you have them,
so make up with each other.
**[08:41] ---**
Uh, I hate to say this, but this
is no time to be eating ice cream.
**[08:49] ---**
A rich and refreshing sweetness
without a greasy aftertaste.
**[08:52] ---**
It is obvious that the milk is good,
**[08:55] ---**
but unless you use well-ground sugar,
you do not get this texture.
**[08:58] ---**
The cone yields a crust
of crushed cookies, right?
**[09:02] ---**
"Good job!"
**[09:03] ---**
...says Misaka, offering her
generous praise.
**[09:07] ---**
Thank you.
**[09:09] ---**
Well, when a couple breaks up,
they're perfect strangers again,
**[09:13] ---**
but sisters share their blood for life.
**[09:17] ---**
My old lady might turn perfect stranger
on me if I don't make some money.
**[09:21] ---**
Look, we're not interested.
**[09:24] ---**
Anyhow, be nice sisters to each other!
**[09:26] ---**
I told you, it's not like that!
**[09:29] ---**
But, based on outward appearances,
what are you supposed to think?
**[09:32] ---**
You wouldn't know that we share
not just blood, but even our genes.
**[09:39] ---**
Huh?
**[09:44] ---**
Hey!
**[09:44] ---**
"Why, what is the matter?"
**[09:46] ---**
...asks Misaka, enjoying the
refreshing aftertaste
**[09:48] ---**
of choco-mint,
while playing innocent.
**[09:51] ---**
Even supposing that you are
my clone, you can't be such a pig--
**[09:54] ---**
"Now that I am chilled,
I would like to have some hot tea,"
**[09:58] ---**
coaxes Misaka, as though
nothing had happened.
**[10:01] ---**
Huh?
**[10:02] ---**
"I may not look it,
but I am pretty fussy about my tea,"
**[10:05] ---**
says Misaka, raising a hurdle in advance.
**[10:09] ---**
"Incidentally, my order will be milk tea,"
**[10:12] ---**
says Misaka, already settling on her order--
**[10:14] ---**
Stop screwing with me!
**[10:19] ---**
"That milk tea was quite good.
The strawberry shortcake was, too,"
**[10:24] ---**
says Misaka, offering her candid opinion.
**[10:27] ---**
So, when are you going to head back?
**[10:31] ---**
I forgot to mention this,
**[10:33] ---**
but Misaka is now
headed for her experiment,
**[10:35] ---**
so she is not
returning to the facility.
**[10:37] ---**
Huh?!
**[10:38] ---**
Big Sister,
you are free to follow me,
**[10:41] ---**
but you will not see
Misaka's manufacturer.
**[10:43] ---**
W-Why did you wait until now to...
**[10:46] ---**
Because you did not ask.
**[10:50] ---**
What do I do?
**[10:51] ---**
Would it be quicker trying to
decode her password,
**[10:53] ---**
and search for
more information that way?
**[10:55] ---**
I do have my PDA with me.
**[10:57] ---**
Whoops...
**[10:59] ---**
What is that?
**[11:00] ---**
Oh, just a prize I got
from a vending machine.
**[11:07] ---**
What is this?
**[11:08] ---**
Just hold still, will you?
**[11:10] ---**
Mm-hmm, this is a lot more
straightforward and objective
**[11:15] ---**
than looking in a mirror.
Looking at it this way, it's quite passable.
**[11:17] ---**
"No, no, it ain't," says Misaka,
shocked by Misaka's model's
**[11:21] ---**
childish sense of fashion.
**[11:23] ---**
W-What did you say?!
**[11:25] ---**
O-Obviously, I was just joking.
**[11:28] ---**
You know it's bad when your own clone...
**[11:30] ---**
Geez, I just put it on
you to see how it looked.
**[11:30] ---**
...shoots you down.
**[11:44] ---**
Hey, what's the big idea?!
**[11:46] ---**
"The moment you put it on Misaka,
**[11:48] ---**
the ownership of this badge
transferred to her," she asserts.
**[11:52] ---**
"Big Sister's actions constitute
robbery," charges Misaka.
**[11:55] ---**
What kind of sophistry is that?!
**[11:57] ---**
It is not sophistry. Besides, this...
**[12:00] ---**
...is the first present
ever received from Big Sister.
**[12:07] ---**
"Wasn't there anything
better she could have given,"
**[12:11] ---**
grumbles Misaka to herself with a sigh.
**[12:16] ---**
That's it! Give it back!
**[12:18] ---**
Whoa, don't let her trip you up again.
**[12:22] ---**
I won't get anywhere at this rate.
I'll check the net, instead.
**[12:28] ---**
Okay, fine. I'm going
to call it quits for today.
**[12:34] ---**
Hmm? Was there something else?
**[12:37] ---**
No.
**[12:39] ---**
Farewell, Big Sister.
**[12:42] ---**
Yeah, mm-hmm. See you.
**[12:51] ---**
Sheesh, what was her deal?
**[12:54] ---**
Everything she did had
me thrown off of my game.
**[12:57] ---**
Getting frisky together with that cat...
**[13:00] ---**
...eating ice cream together...
**[13:02] ---**
...scrambling for that metal badge...
**[13:04] ---**
It's almost like she was...
**[13:09] ---**
Whatever, first thing I'm going
to do is let her manufacturer have it!
**[13:29] ---**
"#5 Project Level 6 Shift"
**[13:33] ---**
Thank you very much, Miss Haru'ue!
**[13:36] ---**
Mm-mm, you're always
helping me out, after all.
**[13:39] ---**
I'm very happy to help you with
your summer vacation homework.
**[13:43] ---**
The Judgment recruiting drive
took so much time, I was in a real fix.
**[13:48] ---**
This really saves my neck!
**[13:51] ---**
All done. Is this all of it?
**[13:57] ---**
Yes, hello?
**[13:58] ---**
Miss Uiharu? Sorry for calling so late.
**[14:01] ---**
Forgive me for
coming right to the point,
**[14:03] ---**
but do you know what
ZXC741-ASD852-QWE963-Dash means?
**[14:12] ---**
Hmm, I've seen this
pattern before somewhere...
**[14:17] ---**
This code looks like a
password attached to information
**[14:21] ---**
of security Rank A or above.
**[14:23] ---**
I've tried to crack this before, myself.
**[14:26] ---**
Thanks! You're a big help!
**[14:28] ---**
Huh? Um, Miss Misaka...?
**[14:30] ---**
Is something the matter with Miss Misaka?
**[14:32] ---**
Huh... I'm not sure.
**[14:45] ---**
The current time is 20:58.
**[14:49] ---**
Two minutes remain
until Experiment number 9982.
**[14:56] ---**
What...
**[14:57] ---**
"How to shift an absolute esper
to Level 6 through the use of Sisters."
**[15:00] ---**
...is this?
**[15:17] ---**
It is now 21:00 hours.
**[15:20] ---**
We will now commence
Experiment number 9982.
**[15:28] ---**
"How to shift the
absolute esper to Level 6
**[15:30] ---**
through the use of Sisters.
**[15:33] ---**
In Academy City, there are
seven people who are Level 5s,
**[15:37] ---**
but as a result of the projections
calculated by Tree Diagram,
**[15:41] ---**
it is ascertained that there
is only one person able to reach
**[15:44] ---**
the as-yet unseen Level 6."
**[15:58] ---**
"If this subject were to
undergo a normal curriculum...
**[16:07] ---**
...it would require 250 years
for him to reach Level 6.
**[16:13] ---**
We are suspending this plan,
and have considered fostering
**[16:18] ---**
esper ability development via combat.
**[16:20] ---**
We will prepare a number
of specific battlefields,
**[16:22] ---**
and by proceeding through
combat according to these scenarios,
**[16:26] ---**
we will manipulate the
direction of his development.
**[16:29] ---**
As a result of the calculations,
**[16:31] ---**
128 different types of
battlefields will be prepared,
**[16:34] ---**
and by killing Railgun 128 times,
**[16:38] ---**
it is ascertained that
he will shift to Level 6.
**[16:42] ---**
However, since it is impossible
to secure multiple Railguns...
**[17:05] ---**
...the Sisters from the
frozen 'Project Radio Noise'
**[17:08] ---**
will be repurposed,
and serve as substitutes here."
**[17:13] ---**
What's the matter?
**[17:15] ---**
Through already?
**[17:19] ---**
"By pumping out mass
numbers of armed Sisters,
**[17:23] ---**
the specs will be bridged..."
**[17:27] ---**
"By means of combat
scenarios with 20,000 'Sisters'"
**[17:30] ---**
"the shift to 'Level 6' will be achieved."
**[17:35] ---**
What is this?
Horsing around only goes so far.
**[17:40] ---**
This stuff in here about killing me,
and using clones as proxies...
**[17:45] ---**
"Experiment 9982" "Begins 8/15 21:00"
**[17:45] ---**
There's no way a project like
this could be carried out...
**[17:57] ---**
Farewell, Big Sister.
**[18:01] ---**
Man...!
**[18:10] ---**
Run away, run away!
**[18:13] ---**
The longer you do,
the longer you get to live.
**[18:17] ---**
After all, this is a
life-or-death game of tag.
**[18:28] ---**
Once I catch up to you,
**[18:29] ---**
it's game over.
**[18:33] ---**
Too slow!
**[18:41] ---**
Now, now, you don't
got any time for falling down.
**[18:50] ---**
Hey, you, are you all
broken already? That's no fun.
**[18:56] ---**
I'm not sure if I can
really make Level 6 like this.
**[19:04] ---**
Ho...? Very nice.
**[19:08] ---**
You're a tough one, aren't you?
**[19:10] ---**
That's more like it!
**[19:21] ---**
Yeah, right. There's no
way such a ridiculous project is--
**[19:38] ---**
What's wrong, what's wrong?
Finally running out of steam?
**[19:44] ---**
Or have you just given up already?
**[19:49] ---**
Misa... ka...
**[19:53] ---**
...does not have an accurate grasp
of the target's ability... however...
**[19:57] ---**
...going by the experimental
results up to now...
**[20:02] ---**
...assuming the target projects
some kind of barrier around him...
**[20:09] ---**
...seeing as how he steps on
the ground to walk...
**[20:15] ---**
...it is believed that his ability
does not extend downward...
**[20:18] ---**
...or at least to the soles
of his feet, and as such...
**[20:22] ---**
...it is concluded that a surprise
attack from such a direction...
**[20:27] ---**
...would be the most effective...
**[20:29] ---**
What are you mumbling about?
**[20:31] ---**
If you won't run away,
I'll finish you off.
**[20:35] ---**
"I am not running away.
**[20:38] ---**
As per my plan...
**[20:41] ---**
I have succeeded in leading
you to the target location..."
**[20:46] ---**
...says Misaka,
seeking for correction...
**[21:01] ---**
Target... completely neutrali--
**[21:09] ---**
Aw, too bad.
**[21:15] ---**
Your idea...
**[21:18] ---**
...was *so* off the mark!
**[21:34] ---**
Now we can't play tag anymore, huh?
**[21:37] ---**
If I just leave you there,
you'll probably croak on your own,
**[21:41] ---**
but I hate to just stand around waiting.
**[21:50] ---**
Huh? Hey, are you still running away?
**[21:54] ---**
But then, that way's a dead end.
**[21:57] ---**
Or do you have something
else up your sleeve?
**[22:10] ---**
I've had enough of you.
**[22:15] ---**
I'm gonna finish this.
**[22:22] ---**
No way!
**[22:24] ---**
No way... It can't be...!
**[22:40] ---**
Stop!
**[22:46] ---**
Today's experiment is all done!
**[22:51] ---**
I made quite a mess
of things this time, though.
**[22:54] ---**
I wonder if they'll
be able to clean this up.
**[22:58] ---**
Well, I guess it doesn't matter.
**[23:00] ---**
I think I'll stop at the convenience
store on the way home--
**[23:04] ---**
Huh?
**[23:47] ---**
"Next episode preview"

Hey, now, what's going on here?!

There's only supposed to
be one experiment tonight!

**[00:17] ---**
What would you do, Sissy...
**[00:20] ---**
if a clone of yourself
were to show up?
**[00:29] ---**
Good question...
**[00:32] ---**
I'd probably think
it was a little creepy,
**[00:34] ---**
and wish they would
get away from me.
**[00:43] ---**
Today's experiment is all done!
**[00:48] ---**

*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[01:25] ---**

*more precious than anything else*
**[02:06] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[02:10] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[02:13] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[02:17] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[02:20] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[02:23] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[02:26] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[02:33] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[02:50] ---**
Oh?
**[02:55] ---**
Awesome, awesome!
What is this, a new technique?
**[03:15] ---**
Controlling the ironsand
with magnetism, huh?
**[03:18] ---**
That's an interesting way to use it.
**[03:25] ---**
It can't be...
**[03:28] ---**
But then, once you know
how it's done, it's no big deal.
**[03:34] ---**
He took that,
**[03:36] ---**
and there's not a scratch
on him? What the...?
**[04:03] ---**
Huh? Such power...
**[04:06] ---**
Are you...?
**[04:24] ---**
W-What the...?
**[04:27] ---**
There's an esper that's
capable of shrugging off my attacks?
**[04:33] ---**
Ah, so that's it.
**[04:35] ---**
I was wondering what this was,
since it wasn't scheduled.
**[04:38] ---**
You're... the Original, huh?
**[04:46] ---**
The clones are supposed
to take the Original's place,
**[04:49] ---**
but if I go against you, that means,
**[04:52] ---**
I can condense these
lame chores considerably, right?
**[04:57] ---**
I'm starting to get awfully tired
of doing those. Would you mind,
**[05:02] ---**
Original?
**[05:11] ---**
Why...
**[05:13] ---**
Why are you
complicit in this project?
**[05:16] ---**
What? This is so sudden--
**[05:18] ---**
Answer me!
**[05:19] ---**
With the kind of power you've got,
**[05:22] ---**
it's not like they're
forcing you to do it, right?
**[05:24] ---**
What is your reason for
working with this crazy project?!
**[05:28] ---**
Did you have something
against her, or something?!
**[05:31] ---**
Reason? Reason, huh? Well...
**[05:38] ---**
...it's to acquire absolute power.
**[05:43] ---**
I don't mean being Level 5,
or Academy City's top dog,
**[05:48] ---**
or anything else
as piddling as that.
**[05:51] ---**
The kind of absolute power that
will not condone people
**[05:54] ---**
even thinking of challenging me.
**[05:57] ---**
I want "invincibility."
**[05:59] ---**
Being a Level 5,
you can understand that.
**[06:05] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[06:08] ---**
Absolute power? Invincibility?
**[06:12] ---**
That... That's why you're...
**[06:23] ---**
That's the reason why...
**[06:25] ---**
...you killed her?!
**[06:41] ---**
You make it sound so dirty.
**[06:43] ---**
Don't talk like it's murder.
The things I'm taking on
**[06:47] ---**
are manufactured
with the push of a button.
**[06:53] ---**
What are you so uptight about?
**[06:56] ---**
A-Ah, I get it. Sorry, sorry.
**[07:00] ---**
That was your ace-in-the-hole
move, wasn't it?
**[07:05] ---**
Man, even granted that
you're a Level 5, like me,
**[07:08] ---**
I'd never expected it to
be anything so miserable.
**[07:16] ---**
All right...
**[07:18] ---**
...now it's my turn.
**[07:20] ---**
The way you're looking,
though, I'm not expecting a whole lot,
**[07:25] ---**
but do try to at least
keep me amused, third-string.
**[07:30] ---**
"Just a moment, please.
**[07:34] ---**
It is feared that any
combat outside of the project
**[07:36] ---**
will introduce errors into
the computational predictions,"
**[07:39] ---**
reports Misaka.
**[07:48] ---**
"Especially since Big Sister is Level 5."
**[07:51] ---**
"The skew caused by such
combat would be extremely large."
**[07:54] ---**
"It is feared that far
from a shortening of time,"
**[07:56] ---**
"the very project itself..."
**[07:57] ---**
"...would be at risk of being ruined."
**[07:59] ---**
"Further, Misaka has..."
**[08:00] ---**
"in anticipation of the experiments
scheduled to take place later,"
**[08:03] ---**
"undergone various tuning,"
**[08:05] ---**
"and any alterations to the project
would be extraordinarily difficult,"
**[08:08] ---**
explains Misaka.
**[08:10] ---**
Tch, all right, I get it.
I was just teasing, that's all.
**[08:16] ---**
And stop talking round
robin-style. It's creepy.
**[08:19] ---**
Come to think of it,
I haven't introduced myself, huh?
**[08:23] ---**
Not satisfied with
just being the strongest...
**[08:25] ---**
I'm the one looking after your clones.
**[08:29] ---**
They're helping me
to achieve my "invincibility."
**[08:31] ---**
...a Level 5 who aims
for something even greater.
**[08:35] ---**
No doubt about it, this boy is...
**[08:37] ---**
I should be grateful to you.
**[08:41] ---**
Academy City's first-ranked
at controlling all vectors...
**[08:45] ---**
I'm Accelerator.
**[08:48] ---**
It's a pleasure.
**[08:59] ---**
Numbers 9995 through 10007, clear the rails.
**[09:04] ---**
Numbers 10008 onward--
**[09:05] ---**
What is wrong with you?
**[09:09] ---**
This is messed up.
Why are you going along with this project?
**[09:14] ---**
You're going to get killed.
**[09:16] ---**
I don't understand
how this can happen!
**[09:20] ---**
Why?!
**[09:22] ---**
You're alive, aren't you?!
You have life, don't you?!
**[09:24] ---**
Even such as you are?!
**[09:29] ---**
What is this?
**[09:32] ---**
What exactly is this...?
**[09:36] ---**
Misaka is a product
created for this project.
**[09:41] ---**
Artificial bodies with artificial minds.
**[09:44] ---**
She is a laboratory animal,
at a unit price of ¥180,000 each.
**[09:52] ---**
Goodbye then, Big Sister.
**[09:58] ---**
Y-Yes, that is right.
**[10:01] ---**
She has not come back here yet,
**[10:04] ---**
so I thought, maybe she
is at Miss Saten's place...
**[10:08] ---**
She hasn't come over here.
Have you tried over at Uiharu's?
**[10:12] ---**
I did hear from Uiharu--
**[10:15] ---**
Er, I mean... Yes, indeed.
**[10:17] ---**
If she is not at your place,
Miss Saten, then...
**[10:20] ---**
Shirai, I'm just guessing here,
**[10:24] ---**
but is it possible
that Misaka has a boyfr--
**[10:26] ---**
No, there is no way
something like that could happen!
**[10:28] ---**
M-My Sissy would never do
anything so improper!
**[10:30] ---**
Miss Saten,
I am disappointed in you!
**[10:32] ---**
Sissy belongs to me!
She belongs to me, alone!
**[10:34] ---**
I'm kidding!
I'm kidding! Uh, Shirai?
**[10:39] ---**
Hello?
**[10:43] ---**
What was that about?
**[10:46] ---**
Would you like to
offer your DNA map to us?
**[10:52] ---**
No!
**[10:53] ---**
They're not going to use our
DNA map to treat muscular dystrophy!
**[10:57] ---**
They're going to use it
as the basis to make clones!
**[11:00] ---**
They're going to start
their ridiculous experiment!
**[11:03] ---**
Which is why...
**[11:04] ---**
Mm-hmm!
**[11:07] ---**
Wait!
**[11:08] ---**
Listen to me! Please, listen--
**[11:12] ---**
I see. So you were
the cause of this, Big Sister.
**[11:17] ---**
The reason Misaka was made...
**[11:19] ---**
The reason Misaka is killed...
**[11:21] ---**
All of it...
**[11:22] ---**
Everything.
**[11:30] ---**
Oh...
**[11:32] ---**
I've been here all night.
**[11:46] ---**
"#6 I... Can See All Of You"
**[11:47] ---**
Long time no see.
**[11:51] ---**
I thought I saw a delinquent girl
staying up all night on the bench.
**[11:55] ---**
Regrettably, it looks like you
found out about the project, huh?
**[12:00] ---**
There is no way for
you to put a stop to it,
**[12:02] ---**
which is why I told
you not to get involved.
**[12:05] ---**
No, you didn't.
**[12:07] ---**
Oh, dear. Is that right?
**[12:09] ---**
Why?
**[12:12] ---**
Why are they able
to do something like that?
**[12:14] ---**
I don't know anything
about Level 6, or whatever,
**[12:17] ---**
but is it something they
want so badly, they'll kill so many?
**[12:22] ---**
Everyone involved
in that experiment is crazy.
**[12:28] ---**
It's not quite like that.
**[12:31] ---**
I won't deny that there is
something crazy about them,
**[12:34] ---**
but if we're talking about right
and wrong, that's another matter.
**[12:38] ---**
For example, suppose there
were a way to develop a miracle drug,
**[12:40] ---**
which could cure cancer,
**[12:42] ---**
but it required experimental
data from 20,000 guinea pigs.
**[12:49] ---**
You just thought to yourself
that there'd be no choice, didn't you?
**[12:54] ---**
That's a different argument.
**[12:55] ---**
Even though both are alive?
**[13:00] ---**
They are the same thing
to researchers, at least.
**[13:04] ---**
They are artificially produced
guinea pigs, made for the sake
**[13:08] ---**
of reaching Level 6. Of course,
**[13:11] ---**
there are those who are in
it for their personal interests,
**[13:13] ---**
and there are a few of them
who really do have a screw loose.
**[13:17] ---**
But they do not recognize
this as being murder.
**[13:24] ---**
And neither did I.
**[13:28] ---**
The reason you were spreading
those Money Cards around
**[13:32] ---**
was to interfere with
the experiments, right?
**[13:35] ---**
Yeah.
**[13:37] ---**
Why?
**[13:39] ---**
Why would you protect those creations,
who aren't even human?
**[13:46] ---**
When Project Radio Noise,
which would mass produce Level 5s,
**[13:51] ---**
was frozen, I left the
team temporarily. But...
**[13:55] ---**
...when the Sisters were
taken over by Project Level 6 Shift,
**[13:59] ---**
I was called in once again.
**[14:04] ---**
Following the start
of in-house experiments,
**[14:06] ---**
there are no particular problems
with their individual minds.
**[14:10] ---**
The Misaka Net also
appears to be problem-free.
**[14:21] ---**
Care for some? It beats being
looked at that way from over there.
**[14:25] ---**
What's this?
**[14:27] ---**
Tea.
**[14:28] ---**
It should be in with
the data input by Testament.
**[14:32] ---**
This is tea...
**[14:42] ---**
"It is somewhat different from
the Testament data," reports Misaka.
**[14:47] ---**
In addition to the tea leaves' flavor,
**[14:49] ---**
there is a subtle
sweetness and fullness to--
**[14:51] ---**
Oh, well, that's
because it's milk tea.
**[14:54] ---**
It's tea with milk
added to it. It's my favorite.
**[14:59] ---**
Milk tea...
**[15:04] ---**
I know it's been a long
time since we've met like this,
**[15:06] ---**
but you haven't changed
at all since the first "you," huh?
**[15:13] ---**
8911 units have been consumed
so far in in-house experiments.
**[15:18] ---**
In that time, your emotional
aspects haven't developed at all,
**[15:22] ---**
but rather, your memories
and experiences,
**[15:25] ---**
in pure data form, are all that
have been shared and gathered,
**[15:29] ---**
via the Misaka Network.
**[15:32] ---**
Which means that the next unit
will know the flavor of milk tea.
**[15:35] ---**
It's an absolutely fantastic
system, the Misaka Network.
**[15:40] ---**
"It is also thanks to
Testament," Misaka adds.
**[15:45] ---**
"It is through it that
the Misakas are programmed
**[15:49] ---**
to conceptualize feelings
and remember them as data.
**[15:52] ---**
As a result, the Misakas are
able to readily face the experiments,"
**[15:57] ---**
says Misaka, expressing gratitude.
**[16:04] ---**
It's time.
**[16:10] ---**
Do you have anything to ask
**[16:12] ---**
before heading
out for external training?
**[16:15] ---**
"Is the air outside sweet?
Is it spicy?
**[16:21] ---**
I was told that the
air outside is delicious.
**[16:24] ---**
Misaka prefers things
sweet, you see," says Misaka,
**[16:28] ---**
revealing her tastes.
**[16:31] ---**
Well, you'll find out
yourself once you head out.
**[16:45] ---**
The glare from the
sun is pretty strong today.
**[16:50] ---**
So, are you disappointed?
**[16:52] ---**
No, not at all.
**[16:59] ---**
A number of aromas are
stimulating my nasal cavities,
**[17:03] ---**
and filling my breast.
**[17:05] ---**
An irregular breeze blows through
my hair, sweeping past my body.
**[17:10] ---**
Light rays from the
sun beam down on my skin,
**[17:14] ---**
and I can feel my
cheeks taking in their heat.
**[17:21] ---**
The world... is such
a dazzling place, isn't it?
**[17:28] ---**
I hate to come across as so simple,
**[17:32] ---**
but from that moment, I could
no longer think of them as creations.
**[17:37] ---**
All because she seemed
so much more human than me,
**[17:42] ---**
who could only see the
world as this warped, ugly thing.
**[17:48] ---**
How do you see them?
**[17:53] ---**
I...
**[17:55] ---**
...don't want to consider
clones to be human.
**[17:58] ---**
Why help them, if they accept
that they're going to be killed?
**[18:06] ---**
However,
**[18:07] ---**
as for the folks who used my
DNA map in their two-bit experiment...
**[18:14] ---**
I don't intend to overlook them.
**[18:21] ---**
That's right. She called
here out of the blue,
**[18:24] ---**
asked me about some
kind of code, and... Wait,
**[18:28] ---**
Miss Shirai, you don't
know about this, either?
**[18:32] ---**
Sissy...
**[18:35] ---**
Sissy! What were you
thinking by not even calling...
**[18:39] ---**
Your clothes...
What happened to you?
**[18:42] ---**
Oh, well, you know...
**[18:46] ---**
Same thing as always.
I'm going to grab a shower, okay?
**[18:49] ---**
Um...
**[18:50] ---**
Sissy!
**[18:53] ---**
Yes?
**[18:55] ---**
Uiharu? Y-Yes,
just n-- I mean, late last night.
**[19:00] ---**
Yes, so there is
nothing to worry about.
**[19:03] ---**
Please relay the same to
Miss Haru'ue for me, okay? Bye.
**[19:07] ---**
Hello? Ah, Miss Saten...
Yes, late last night.
**[19:12] ---**
No, I told you,
you have it wrong, did I not?!
**[19:15] ---**
Yes, so really, there
is no need to worry. Yes...
**[19:25] ---**
Listen, Kuroko,
**[19:27] ---**
do you have a minute?
**[19:30] ---**
Sorry to worry you, everyone!
**[19:32] ---**
By way of apology, this
is my treat! Go on, dig right in!
**[19:37] ---**
This is amazing.
**[19:38] ---**
So tell us, Misaka,
**[19:39] ---**
where were you,
and what were you up to?
**[19:44] ---**
I wanted to see the stars.
**[19:47] ---**
The stars?
**[19:48] ---**
Yep, the stars.
**[19:50] ---**
Now and then, you get into kind
of a schmaltzy mood, you know?
**[19:54] ---**
Wanting to sit on the swing
at the park, swaying by yourself,
**[19:57] ---**
humming the Gondola Song to yourself,
**[19:59] ---**
and just stare up endlessly
into the starry sky, don't you?
**[20:02] ---**
No, I don't. I don't
even know what that means.
**[20:07] ---**
N-No, huh? Well, it doesn't
matter. It's just my mood!
**[20:10] ---**
Come to think of it,
**[20:12] ---**
did you figure out what
the code yesterday was for?
**[20:15] ---**
What code?
**[20:16] ---**
Oh, uh...
**[20:17] ---**
A-Ah, that!
**[20:20] ---**
That was... you see...
**[20:27] ---**
Sissy...?
**[20:30] ---**
Um...
**[20:31] ---**
Misaka,
**[20:32] ---**
are you all right?
**[20:37] ---**
I see you all...
**[20:40] ---**
I... can see all of you...
really... so...
**[20:47] ---**
Sissy?
**[20:48] ---**
The arcade!
**[20:50] ---**
Let's go to the arcade, Misaka!
**[20:53] ---**
It's been so long, and I want
to take on the punching machine!
**[20:57] ---**
Great idea! The arcade!
**[20:59] ---**
Ah... Then I want to do *this* again!
**[21:03] ---**
Oh, isn't that...
**[21:04] ---**
Great idea!
**[21:06] ---**
Let's go, let's go!
**[21:08] ---**
Let's go clear our heads.
**[21:12] ---**
Guys...
**[21:13] ---**
However, please
do not forget one thing--
**[21:17] ---**
Misaka, we're all here for you.
**[21:20] ---**
If you ever have
too much on your plate,
**[21:22] ---**
just say the word, any time, okay?
**[21:29] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[21:31] ---**
It really has been a long time, huh?
**[21:33] ---**
How long has it been?
**[21:35] ---**
I wonder if the moles are still there.
**[21:37] ---**
I will show you my technique.
**[21:39] ---**
Fine, but you're not going to beat me!
**[21:39] ---**
Yes... I can see now...
**[21:42] ---**
Oh, yes I can!
**[21:44] ---**
Which is all the more reason...
**[21:48] ---**
However, as for
the folks who used
**[21:51] ---**
my DNA map in
their two-bit experiment...
**[21:54] ---**
I don't intend to overlook them.
**[21:56] ---**
You're kind of defiant, huh?
**[22:00] ---**
There are over twenty
facilities involved in this project.
**[22:10] ---**
Are you planning to do this alone?
**[22:14] ---**
Who do you take me for?
**[22:19] ---**
I am the one who sowed this seed.
**[22:23] ---**
I will be the one...
**[22:26] ---**
...to clean it up.
**[22:29] ---**
*While looking up
into an unfamiliar sky,*
**[22:35] ---**
*always, always walking with you*
**[22:41] ---**
*I was searching for
the future I thought I saw,*
**[22:47] ---**
*so unlike the one up until a day ago*
**[22:53] ---**
*When you touched my heart,
convinced by my blurred vision,*
**[23:01] ---**
*that I was wandering*
**[23:05] ---**
*everything started changing*
**[23:09] ---**
*After counting clouds until I grew
bored of it, they drifted far away again*
**[23:16] ---**
*I went after them, and found
my dreams for tomorrow*
**[23:21] ---**
*Assured that it's now or never,
your feelings get through to me*
**[23:28] ---**
*and someday, I'm sure,
I'll offer mine, too*
**[23:33] ---**
*Like the clouds, gently, gently,*
**[23:39] ---**
*moving forever, forever forward*
**[23:47] ---**

**[23:48] ---**
Ah, I'm still worried about Misaka.
**[23:51] ---**
Yes, indeed.
**[23:52] ---**
Summertime *manju* buns!
**[23:52] ---**
Miss Shirai?
**[23:54] ---**

**[00:28] ---**
What's going on,
at this hour of the night?
**[00:31] ---**
I'm sorry, but there has
been a fire at the first wing
**[00:33] ---**
of the DNA map analysis lab
attached to Shiname University.
**[00:36] ---**
Cause and level of damage?
**[00:38] ---**
Currently under investigation.
**[00:41] ---**
B-Bad news!
There's a fire at the lab!
**[00:44] ---**
If you mean the fire
at the DNA map lab, I heard.
**[00:47] ---**
No, another one!
**[00:48] ---**
Huh?
**[00:51] ---**
The research data at Rangaku
Medical Labs has been lost?
**[00:55] ---**
Bio-labs' system is down!
**[00:57] ---**
Hello? Hello?
**[01:00] ---**
I can't get through to
School District 12's Thought Labs.
**[01:03] ---**
There are fires in Shiname's
2nd, 3rd, and 5th wings, too!
**[01:07] ---**
What is this?
**[01:09] ---**
A coordinated terrorist attack.
**[01:12] ---**
What is the terrorists'
method of attack?
**[01:14] ---**
There are no traces of
any attacks from the outside,
**[01:16] ---**
and no eyewitness
reports of any intruders.
**[01:19] ---**
It appears that the equipment
just suddenly exploded.
**[01:24] ---**
All right.
**[01:25] ---**
The culprits are delivering
attacks via communications lines!
**[01:28] ---**
Please block all external
communications at once.
**[01:32] ---**
Y-Yes, sir!
**[01:37] ---**
They're onto me, huh?
**[01:40] ---**
Miss Uiharu probably could have done
**[01:41] ---**
a better job of hacking in
this situation, but...
**[01:48] ---**
Even so, that should more
or less take out seventy percent of it.
**[01:53] ---**
Now I just have to go around
and take the rest down directly.
**[02:23] ---**
Sissy...
**[02:38] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[02:42] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[02:45] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings
we've built up together*
**[02:55] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*
**[03:02] ---**
*while I am unable to sense your pain*
**[03:08] ---**
*If the dreams you
committed to me that day*
**[03:12] ---**
*end up tearing me apart,*
**[03:15] ---**
*don't ever let go of that hope*
**[03:18] ---**
*more precious than anything else*
**[03:23] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[03:27] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[03:30] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[03:34] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[03:37] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[03:40] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[03:43] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[03:49] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[04:09] ---**
I have to keep it up.
**[04:12] ---**
Even at this very moment,
the experiment could be going on.
**[04:18] ---**
I can't afford to collapse
before the project does.
**[04:22] ---**
Wah! M-Miss Head Resident!
**[04:24] ---**
Hmm? What is it, Shirai?
You are acting downright suspicious.
**[04:28] ---**
Huh? I am not
particularly doing anything...
**[04:32] ---**
You're acting even more suspicious!
**[04:36] ---**
Excuse me!
**[04:43] ---**
Sissy!
**[04:44] ---**
You are back home again, are you?
**[04:46] ---**
What?
**[04:47] ---**
Is there something wrong
with me being in my own room?
**[04:50] ---**
No, I would not say that,
necessarily.
**[04:53] ---**
Sissy, you just were not
home all day yesterday, so...
**[04:57] ---**
Just some business
I had to take care of.
**[04:59] ---**
I see. Well, you are just in time.
**[05:03] ---**
Huh?
**[05:04] ---**
Ta-da! I got some of Anshindo's
limited-time-only summer *manju* buns!
**[05:09] ---**
Sissy, you said before that you
wanted to have some, right? So...
**[05:12] ---**
I'm okay. Not very hungry right now.
**[05:16] ---**
Sissy?
**[05:19] ---**
Sorry, but I'm heading
out again for a bit.
**[05:21] ---**
Huh? But if the head resident
does another surprise check tonight...
**[05:27] ---**
If she does, just trick
her again for me, okay?
**[05:30] ---**
Sissy!
**[05:39] ---**
It is as plain as day that you
are wrapped up in something serious.
**[05:46] ---**
Something you cannot turn to me for.
**[05:59] ---**
Ah, those are Anshindo
summer *manju* buns, aren't they?
**[06:03] ---**
These are ultra-rare,
limited-time-only products, right?
**[06:06] ---**
Probably...
**[06:07] ---**
How nice, how nice!
I'd sure like one, too!
**[06:10] ---**
Um, well, you see...
**[06:13] ---**
Hmm?
**[06:14] ---**
If you both want one,
help yourselves.
**[06:16] ---**
Eh? Are you sure? Wait, huh...?
**[06:20] ---**
Come to think of it,
are these summer *manju* buns
**[06:22] ---**
the ones you were bringing
home for Misaka yesterday, Shirai?
**[06:26] ---**
Apparently, Sissy was not in the
mood for Japanese sweets yesterday.
**[06:31] ---**
But she seemed to be
doing just fine, so do not worry.
**[06:38] ---**
Wow! Those are Anshindo
summer *manju* buns, right?
**[06:41] ---**
The rare, limited-time-only ones!
**[06:43] ---**
Did someone hear me
saying that I wanted to have some?
**[06:45] ---**
That's so considerate!
**[06:49] ---**
Miss Shirai, come and have some with us!
**[06:51] ---**
No, I am fine.
**[06:58] ---**
Oh come on, why don't you?
**[06:59] ---**
I'll go make some of
the tea I've been saving.
**[07:04] ---**
Mm, these are good!
**[07:07] ---**
That's the flavor from a
long-established shop for you.
**[07:09] ---**
Arson, you say?
**[07:10] ---**
Yes. Lately, there have
been some unexplained fires
**[07:13] ---**
that have broken out
in research facilities all over.
**[07:16] ---**
We haven't received any
requests for assistance from them,
**[07:19] ---**
and it doesn't appear to be too serious.
**[07:22] ---**
Is that right?
**[07:24] ---**
A bunch of false alarms,
for crying out loud.
**[07:27] ---**
Ah!
**[07:28] ---**
My *manju* bun! Miss Saten,
you ate it, didn't you?!
**[07:32] ---**
Heh, when you set me up like that,
I thought, "how could I not"?
**[07:34] ---**
What do you think you're doing?!
**[07:38] ---**
I am going to go out on patrol for a bit.
**[07:41] ---**
Just because we have
not been requested to assist,
**[07:43] ---**
it does not change the
fact that arson is involved.
**[07:46] ---**
It's true, once something *does
*happen, we'd be too late.
**[07:49] ---**
In any case, we should
increase our patrols from now on.
**[08:02] ---**
Nothing particularly out
of the ordinary in this district.
**[08:06] ---**
Huh, you really mean it?
**[08:08] ---**
I really, really mean it!
**[08:11] ---**
Oh, yeah? That can't be right.
**[08:13] ---**
Yes, it *is* right!
**[08:20] ---**
I am not being wary enough.
**[08:22] ---**
At this rate,
I will not be much help to Sissy.
**[08:26] ---**
Ah, this is one, isn't it?
**[08:28] ---**
Wow, Minori, that is amazing!
**[08:31] ---**
So, what's the number?
**[08:33] ---**
Let's see...
**[08:34] ---**
You there...
**[08:36] ---**
What are you doing back here?
**[08:39] ---**
What are we doing?
**[08:41] ---**
A lucky card?
**[08:43] ---**
You mean, that money card?
**[08:45] ---**
Mm-hmm, but this one is a miss.
**[08:48] ---**
A miss?
**[08:49] ---**
See? If you get a
card whose serial number
**[08:52] ---**
has the same number in a row,
it means you're lucky.
**[08:56] ---**
One with three sevens in a row is
the best! It grants any wish you want!
**[09:02] ---**
They say one person who found
one even became a billionaire!
**[09:04] ---**
So that is it.
**[09:05] ---**
I wonder who that might have been.
**[09:06] ---**
An urban legend which grew
out of the Money Card hullabaloo
**[09:09] ---**
from the other day.
**[09:12] ---**
Huh? How come?
**[09:14] ---**
We aren't hurting anything, are we?
**[09:16] ---**
Oh, no you don't.
This area can be dangerous.
**[09:20] ---**
All of you, hurry on
back to your dormitories.
**[09:22] ---**
Aw, man...
**[09:23] ---**
Also, as a member of Judgment,
I shall take custody
**[09:27] ---**
of this dropped Money Card.
**[09:31] ---**
Aw, geez, what is this?
**[09:34] ---**
Ah, I'm worn out.
**[09:37] ---**
Hey, Minori!
**[09:43] ---**
Sorry to keep you waiting.
**[09:45] ---**
What were you doing?
**[09:46] ---**
Oh, nothing really.
**[09:51] ---**
Oh, yeah? That really happened?
**[09:54] ---**
Yes.
**[09:55] ---**
But lucky cards are such an
adorable urban legend.
**[09:59] ---**
You might even call it childish.
**[10:01] ---**
"Childish"?
**[10:03] ---**
That's rich, coming from you,
Uiharu, wearing those underpants.
**[10:09] ---**
Even if it is just a cute urban legend,
**[10:12] ---**
once people get caught up in it,
there is a possibility
**[10:14] ---**
that they will become involved
in unexpected accidents or incidents.
**[10:18] ---**
There is the matter
of the suspicious fires, too.
**[10:20] ---**
We should all be more watchful.
**[10:25] ---**
Yeah, but lucky cards...
**[10:27] ---**
If I were to get my hands
on such a card, I'd...
**[10:32] ---**
There are so many things I'd
wish for, I can't make up my mind!
**[10:35] ---**
There you go again, Miss Saten.
**[10:37] ---**
Miss Shirai, what would you do?
**[10:40] ---**
Huh? About what?
**[10:42] ---**
If you had a card that would
grant you a wish, what would it be?
**[10:48] ---**
I would...
**[10:53] ---**
Such an unscientific idea is ridiculous.
**[10:56] ---**
This is the world-famous
Academy City, you know!
**[11:02] ---**
Regarding the other facility
that was attacked last night,
**[11:05] ---**
according to our investigation,
**[11:06] ---**
it appears that
someone broke in directly,
**[11:08] ---**
and engaged in acts of destruction.
**[11:10] ---**
There were no casualties among the staff.
**[11:12] ---**
However, most of the
equipment and data was destroyed.
**[11:17] ---**
At each facility,
**[11:19] ---**
there are signs that the locks
were deactivated from the outside;
**[11:21] ---**
none of the infrared
sensors were triggered,
**[11:25] ---**
and none of the surveillance
cameras picked up the attackers.
**[11:29] ---**
Also, there are reports that
while the incidents were occurring,
**[11:33] ---**
the nearby wind turbines were
rotating in the opposite direction.
**[11:37] ---**
I see.
**[11:40] ---**
There are cases where such phenomena
**[11:42] ---**
are caused by excessive
electromagnetic interference, right?
**[11:45] ---**
Sir?
**[11:47] ---**
If *she* is the culprit, then indeed,
our security is of no use.
**[11:52] ---**
Moreover, we do not have
the force it would take to stop her.
**[11:56] ---**
But if this keeps up,
the experiment will be...
**[12:02] ---**
Perhaps as far as *we* go...
**[12:04] ---**
Right?
**[12:15] ---**
My goodness gracious, Sissy,
**[12:18] ---**
you look so
vulnerable like that!
**[12:20] ---**
Almost as though you were
asking me to sleep next to you!
**[12:26] ---**
Then again,
how many days has it been...
**[12:29] ---**
...since I've been able to feel
Sissy as close as this?
**[12:44] ---**
If...
**[12:46] ---**
If you had a card that would grant
you a wish, what would it be?
**[12:56] ---**
That is perfectly obvious. I...
**[13:01] ---**
**[13:01] ---**
"#7 I... I Want To Be Of Help To You, Sissy"
**[13:02] ---**
...want to be of help to you, Sissy.
**[13:12] ---**
Good morning, Sissy.
**[13:24] ---**
I am going to give it my best, too!
**[13:32] ---**
Nothing here...
**[13:36] ---**
Aw, nothing here, either.
**[13:47] ---**
H-Huh?
**[13:48] ---**
I'm sure I saw... Oh, well.
**[13:52] ---**
For Pete's sake,
where were your eyes...?
**[13:56] ---**
I talked to you yesterday.
**[13:59] ---**
Have you not learned?
Are you still looking for cards?
**[14:02] ---**
N-No, it's not like that!
I mean, it *is*, but it isn't...
**[14:07] ---**
Um, I mean... you see...
**[14:13] ---**
I get it now.
**[14:15] ---**
You want to give your friend
a lucky card as a present.
**[14:18] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[14:20] ---**
Even so, I am not
very impressed by you
**[14:23] ---**
doing something
so dangerous to get one.
**[14:26] ---**
But we're going to be split up soon.
**[14:30] ---**
Huh?
**[14:31] ---**
She said she's moving.
**[14:33] ---**
It's already been decided,
so there's nothing she can do.
**[14:36] ---**
So before she leaves, I want to
give her a present, no matter what.
**[14:42] ---**
We've been friends
for a long time.
**[14:43] ---**
She's nice,
and always hangs out with me.
**[14:47] ---**
So... So I...
**[14:57] ---**
Here, use this.
**[15:01] ---**
Thank you.
**[15:02] ---**
She must be a dear friend, huh?
**[15:06] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[15:09] ---**
Hey, how far are
you going to take us?
**[15:11] ---**
Have some faith in my instincts!
**[15:14] ---**
It's close...
The lucky card is close!
**[15:18] ---**
(sniff, sniff) (sniff, sniff)
**[15:18] ---**
Come on, let's stop, already!
**[15:21] ---**
Right there! Wait, huh?
**[15:24] ---**
Well, if it isn't Shirai.
**[15:26] ---**
What are you doing?
**[15:32] ---**
(sniff, sniff)
**[15:34] ---**
(sniff, sniff)
**[15:35] ---**
(sniff, sniff) (sniff, sniff)
**[15:37] ---**
Do you really find them like that?
**[15:40] ---**
Those who believe shall
be saved. To see is to believe!
**[15:44] ---**
Now, come and join me!
**[15:46] ---**
O-Okay...
**[15:48] ---**
(sniff, sniff) (sniff, sniff)
**[15:51] ---**
For crying out loud,
what are they doing?
**[15:53] ---**
I-I was patrolling,
like I was supposed to be!
**[15:57] ---**
Even though
I looked the way I did...
**[16:01] ---**
Still, this is surprising, isn't it?
**[16:03] ---**
Huh?
**[16:04] ---**
That you would help
hunt for cards, Miss Shirai.
**[16:07] ---**
I was not exactly *helping*.
If she got into an accident
**[16:10] ---**
while looking around by herself,
it would have been big trouble.
**[16:13] ---**
In effect, it was all part of
my Judgment duties.
**[16:16] ---**
Mm-hmm...
**[16:18] ---**
Oh, Miss Shirai,
you don't give up easy.
**[16:21] ---**
The fact that you're
really doing it for her
**[16:23] ---**
is written all over your face--
**[16:26] ---**
What was that?
**[16:28] ---**
Oh, nothing.
But really, what should we do?
**[16:32] ---**
About what?
**[16:33] ---**
If we really do find a
lucky card, it's still a lost item,
**[16:37] ---**
so giving it away
as a present would be...
**[16:42] ---**
It's just not going to work, is it?
**[16:46] ---**
Oh, it's you two...
**[16:49] ---**
What are you doing down there?
**[16:52] ---**
(sniff, sniff) (sniff, sniff)
**[16:54] ---**
Hmm, so that's it.
**[16:56] ---**
Certainly, as Judgment,
I don't think we can turn a blind eye...
**[17:01] ---**
But...
**[17:03] ---**
A lost item is a lost item,
after all. This could be difficult.
**[17:07] ---**
Yes, it could.
**[17:09] ---**
Ah, in which case...
**[17:12] ---**
I just had a great idea.
**[17:14] ---**
Hey there, you two!
**[17:17] ---**
Um, what is this good idea?
**[17:20] ---**
Just leave everything to me!
**[17:26] ---**
When it comes to this,
**[17:28] ---**
I've always preferred the
more low-tech route, you know?
**[17:31] ---**
Though, it is a bit cliché.
**[17:33] ---**
Cliché is fantastic!
**[17:35] ---**
That's Miss Konori for you!
**[17:37] ---**
Hey, what's about to happen?
**[17:39] ---**
What, you ask?
We're all going to help look!
**[17:41] ---**
Huh?
**[17:42] ---**
For the classic lucky item!
**[17:45] ---**
The four-leaf clover!
**[17:48] ---**
Here goes!
**[17:50] ---**
Wow! Wait up!
**[17:51] ---**
Huh? Uh, j-just
a moment, please!
**[17:56] ---**
When you say "look,"
you mean, this whole place?
**[17:58] ---**
That is right.
**[18:00] ---**
As in all things,
you will never know until you try.
**[18:03] ---**
You can start by doing everything
that you can by yourself.
**[18:18] ---**
Not here... Not here...
Not here, either...
**[18:24] ---**
Sure enough, happiness
isn't something you come by easily.
**[18:27] ---**
Oh, Miss Saten...
**[18:30] ---**
That's not true, is it, Miss Shirai?
**[18:32] ---**
Oh, I am not so sure.
**[18:34] ---**
Huh?
**[18:38] ---**
Look at what I found!
**[18:40] ---**
Did you find a four-leaf clover?
**[18:43] ---**
No, not that.
**[18:46] ---**
A butterfly!
**[18:55] ---**
Oh, and there's another one!
**[18:57] ---**
They must be friends!
**[19:00] ---**
It must be nice, huh?
**[19:03] ---**
Being able to connect with
each other without saying anything,
**[19:06] ---**
like those butterflies do.
**[19:10] ---**
Miss Shirai, your all-out efforts...
**[19:13] ---**
Eh?
**[19:14] ---**
I think they definitely
get through to Miss Misaka.
**[19:19] ---**
What are you talking about?
I am not especially...
**[19:22] ---**
And it's not just Miss Misaka, either.
**[19:24] ---**
That goes for us, too.
**[19:26] ---**
Yep.
**[19:29] ---**
So please don't try
to do everything by yourself.
**[19:32] ---**
We're here for you, too, after all.
**[19:39] ---**
Eh?
**[19:40] ---**
Uh,
**[19:41] ---**
A-Are you all right,
Miss Shirai?
**[19:43] ---**
We're just saying, uh, you know...
**[19:46] ---**
Ah...
**[19:49] ---**
I found one!
**[19:50] ---**
Ah! A four-leaf clover!
**[19:50] ---**
Ah! A four-leaf clover!
**[19:53] ---**
Amazing! You really did find one!
**[19:55] ---**
Although,
it is a bit on the small side.
**[19:58] ---**
Yeah, but even so,
it still is amazing!
**[20:00] ---**
Hey, Minori!
**[20:02] ---**
Over here--
**[20:03] ---**
Found one!
**[20:05] ---**
Look! Look! There are
a lot of them growing here!
**[20:08] ---**
Oh! Well, good for you!
**[20:11] ---**
And one over here, too!
**[20:12] ---**
That's quite a haul, huh?
**[20:28] ---**
Are you heading out again, Sissy?
**[20:31] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[20:32] ---**
I have some business
to take care of.
**[20:38] ---**
Sissy!
**[20:42] ---**
Um... that is...
**[20:49] ---**
Come back safely!
**[20:59] ---**
I'm off.
**[21:05] ---**
Kuroko...
**[21:08] ---**
Thank you.
**[21:14] ---**
Sure.
**[21:24] ---**
I will be waiting for your return...
**[21:30] ---**
...Sissy.
**[21:45] ---**
*While looking up
into an unfamiliar sky,*
**[21:51] ---**
*always, always walking with you*
**[21:56] ---**
*I was searching for
the future I thought I saw,*
**[22:03] ---**
*so unlike the one up until a day ago*
**[22:09] ---**
*When you touched my heart,
convinced by my blurred vision,*
**[22:17] ---**
*that I was wandering*
**[22:21] ---**
*everything started changing*
**[22:25] ---**
*After counting clouds until I grew
bored of it, they drifted far away again*
**[22:32] ---**
*I went after them, and found
my dreams for tomorrow*
**[22:37] ---**
*Assured that it's now or never,
your feelings get through to me*
**[22:43] ---**
*and someday, I'm sure,
I'll offer mine, too*
**[22:49] ---**
*Like the clouds, gently, gently,*
**[22:55] ---**
*moving forever, forever forward*
**[23:26] ---**
They got us again!
**[23:28] ---**
That's the third
facility tonight, alone!
**[23:39] ---**
And now...
**[23:40] ---**
That leaves...
**[23:42] ---**
...there's only...
**[23:45] ---**
...two more to go!
**[23:47] ---**
"Next episode preview"
**[23:48] ---**
A clover that makes wishes come true...
**[23:48] ---**
**[23:50] ---**
I only have one wish.
If that comes true,
**[23:54] ---**
then I will sit still and wait here,
believing in you, Sister.

**[00:24] ---**
Confirm. It's already three
minutes past the designated time.
**[00:28] ---**
This is Point A.
**[00:30] ---**
There isn't anyone in sight.
**[00:32] ---**
What is this? They ran out on us?
**[00:35] ---**
I guess they decided they were
messing with the wrong people.
**[00:37] ---**
I wouldn't say that.
**[00:40] ---**
Hey, whose voice
was that just now?!
**[00:42] ---**
I'm here, all right.
Right next to you.
**[00:52] ---**
Hey! Do you read me?!
**[00:53] ---**
The deal is off! It's off!
**[00:56] ---**
Get out of there immedi--
**[01:02] ---**
W-Who are you...?
**[01:18] ---**
W-Why, you...!
**[01:31] ---**
Eh? Again? Well, all right...
**[01:35] ---**
So, who is it?
**[01:38] ---**
A pharmaceutical company?
**[01:39] ---**
Isn't that a little outside our purview?
**[01:40] ---**
Yeah, well, that may be true and all, but...
**[01:43] ---**
all told, the whole purpose of
the swimsuits is to show off to others,
**[01:48] ---**
so if we go to a private pool
with no one around, there's no point.
**[01:52] ---**
Yeah, but,
**[01:53] ---**
public pools and beaches
are ultra-crowded,
**[01:57] ---**
and there's ultra-next-to-no-room to swim.
**[02:00] ---**
Well, all told,
you are right about that.
**[02:04] ---**
What do you think, Takitsubo?
**[02:06] ---**
Hmm...
**[02:09] ---**
As long as there's space to
just float along, it doesn't matter.
**[02:13] ---**
O-Oh...
**[02:17] ---**
Okay, no chit-chatting
while we're at work.
**[02:20] ---**
Kinuhata, that's enough.
**[02:22] ---**
We got a new request,
so we're heading back.
**[02:24] ---**
When?
**[02:25] ---**
Good question.
It's a hazy request.
**[02:29] ---**
But our job sounds like a simple one.
**[02:32] ---**
Huh? What is this?
I don't know what you mean.
**[02:36] ---**
But, if you say so,
Mugino, then all right.
**[02:39] ---**
What is the job?
**[02:41] ---**
Facility protection detail
against a mysterious invader.
**[02:44] ---**
The pay isn't too bad, either.
It's perfect, isn't it?
**[02:48] ---**
Just the job for us members of ITEM.
**[03:05] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[03:09] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[03:12] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings
we've built up together*
**[03:22] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*
**[03:29] ---**
*while I am unable to sense your pain*
**[03:35] ---**
*If the dreams you
committed to me that day*
**[03:39] ---**
*end up tearing me apart,*
**[03:42] ---**
*don't ever let go of that hope*
**[03:45] ---**
*more precious than anything else*
**[03:50] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[03:54] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[03:57] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[04:01] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[04:04] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[04:07] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[04:10] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[04:16] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[04:24] ---**
An esper that controls electricity, huh?
**[04:27] ---**
Due to terrorist activities
using communications lines,
**[04:29] ---**
as well as not being
caught by electronic security,
**[04:32] ---**
that's what they are assuming.
**[04:34] ---**
In fact, the client seems to
have this rather narrowly profiled.
**[04:39] ---**
If they have a suspect already,
why not ultra-attack themselves?
**[04:44] ---**
I think taking them by
surprise would be an ultra-cinch.
**[04:47] ---**
You are only to act once
the target is within the facility.
**[04:51] ---**
You are not to pry into their particulars,
**[04:53] ---**
as per the client's orders.
**[04:55] ---**
Huh? What is this?
All told, I don't get this at all.
**[04:59] ---**
What do you want? It's not like
I accepted because I wanted to.
**[05:03] ---**
Besides, they have their reasons
for wanting you on a job like this.
**[05:07] ---**
Now stop your griping and get to work!
**[05:09] ---**
Okay.
**[05:11] ---**
The job is to just lie in wait,
and then take out our opponent?
**[05:15] ---**
Perhaps so,
**[05:16] ---**
but the problem is
that there are two locations
**[05:19] ---**
that could be potentially targeted.
**[05:21] ---**
Ooh! I'll go cover
one of them by myself!
**[05:25] ---**
Huh?
**[05:26] ---**
How come? You seemed
ultra-unhappy about this.
**[05:29] ---**
Oh, that's a separate
matter from this.
**[05:31] ---**
All told, if I defeat them myself,
I'll earn a killshot bonus, right?
**[05:36] ---**
All right. Just make
sure to stay in contact.
**[05:41] ---**
Don't get in over your head.
**[05:50] ---**
There are only two
places left, including this one.
**[05:55] ---**
I'm not at all interested in finding out
**[05:59] ---**
at what pace the
experiment is proceeding...
**[06:07] ---**
...but before the night is over...
**[06:08] ---**
I'm bringing an end to all of it!
**[06:18] ---**
I gave in, because the pay was so enticing,
**[06:22] ---**
but all told, waiting for someone
who may not ever come
**[06:26] ---**
sure is boring, huh?
**[06:29] ---**
What's worse, if they go the
other way, then there's a chance...
**[06:33] ---**
that all told, all this boredom
will have been for nothing.
**[06:38] ---**
No way!
**[06:39] ---**
They're here, they're here, they're here!
**[06:41] ---**
All told, they're just
following normal behavior!
**[06:52] ---**
All right,
**[06:54] ---**
the target research
facility is on the top floor.
**[07:00] ---**
I hope things go off without any hitches.
**[07:16] ---**
Sure enough,
it's not going to be that easy.
**[07:21] ---**
Not even one of them hit her?
**[07:23] ---**
Did she use magnetism to
divert the path of the falling objects?
**[07:26] ---**
It looks like the intel about her
being an electrical esper was right.
**[07:31] ---**
There... Ordinarily,
**[07:34] ---**
this is a tool to burn
through doors and walls, but...
**[07:45] ---**
A bomb?!
**[07:48] ---**
Why would folks like this...
**[07:51] ---**
...be putting bombs
inside stuffed animals?!
**[08:02] ---**
They're using fuses they
set up in the room ahead of time
**[08:04] ---**
to ignite them? But then,
**[08:07] ---**
what are they thinking,
making such a big production?
**[08:10] ---**
Wha-- A bomb in the rubble?!
**[08:15] ---**
Ow!
**[08:16] ---**
They've predicted my moves!
**[08:18] ---**
Does that mean the word is out
about me being an Electromaster?
**[08:29] ---**
Yow...!
**[08:32] ---**
An emergency retreat
using my maximum magnetism...
**[08:35] ---**
It does a lot of damage,
so I didn't want to use it.
**[08:38] ---**
But never mind that, where are they?
**[08:42] ---**
They're even in here?
**[08:45] ---**
If I follow where these lead...
**[09:05] ---**
Her, huh?
**[09:08] ---**
You mean it?
**[09:10] ---**
Yes. Word is that they showed up
at the pathological analysis lab.
**[09:15] ---**
They did, huh?
**[09:16] ---**
They went over there, did they?
**[09:19] ---**
Hurry and get our
move here taken care of, too.
**[09:21] ---**
Excuse me...
**[09:23] ---**
What is it?
**[09:24] ---**
Um, we have a visitor.
**[09:30] ---**
Oh... Sorry to keep you
waiting. It's nice to meet you.
**[09:35] ---**
And, uh, you are...?
**[09:39] ---**
I'm the one who was in charge of
your company's Testament oversight,
**[09:42] ---**
Nunotaba.
**[09:47] ---**
Whoa!
**[09:49] ---**
The girder is in the way, huh?
**[09:52] ---**
I don't need any
more interference later on,
**[09:54] ---**
so I'll take care of this first!
**[09:56] ---**
She's really put on quite a
spectacle so far, huh?
**[09:59] ---**
My hunch is that if I'd used
my usual remote-control bombs,
**[10:03] ---**
she'd be long dead by now,
but with an Electromaster of her level,
**[10:05] ---**
she might have taken
control of them, instead.
**[10:07] ---**
All told, it was the right choice.
**[10:11] ---**
How... ever...
**[10:18] ---**
No way!
**[10:20] ---**
She also deflects ceramic bombs?!
She's on a different level
**[10:24] ---**
than any other
esper I've gone up against.
**[10:30] ---**
You won't get away! I don't
know if you're directly involved,
**[10:33] ---**
or if you're a hired goon...
**[10:36] ---**
...but anyone supporting
this experiment must pay!
**[10:42] ---**
Wow, what a terrifying look!
This is bad!
**[10:45] ---**
If she catches me,
she might tear me apart!
**[10:50] ---**
Yeah, as if!
**[11:06] ---**
I lured you up as close as I could,
so you were pretty high up!
**[11:10] ---**
It doesn't matter how high-level
an esper you are after... that?
**[11:18] ---**
I-It can't be...
**[11:22] ---**
If you wanted to send me falling,
**[11:24] ---**
you'll have to rebuild
the entire facility,
**[11:26] ---**
and this time, leave out the steel!
**[11:29] ---**
What is this?! No fair!
**[11:32] ---**
Yikes!
**[11:52] ---**
Looks like a dead end, huh?
**[11:54] ---**
I never expected to be
backed this far into the corner.
**[11:59] ---**
It's a pretty simple mistake to make.
**[12:03] ---**
Perhaps you panicked,
and made an error in judgment.
**[12:06] ---**
Or maybe...
**[12:10] ---**
What do you think?
**[12:15] ---**
Oh, I beg your pardon.
**[12:16] ---**
It's not as though there's
anything specific we need from you.
**[12:19] ---**
Not to mention, we've never
done as large-scale a move as this one.
**[12:23] ---**
Anyhow, I figure,
in case anything happens,
**[12:25] ---**
if we could have the pleasure
of your company, Miss Nunotaba,
**[12:28] ---**
since you've been involved
since Project Radio Noise...
**[12:31] ---**
I understand.
**[12:33] ---**
Thank you very much.
Well then, please wait here for a moment.
**[12:45] ---**
There's something I want to
ask you now, while I can.
**[12:48] ---**
Who is it that hired you?
**[12:50] ---**
Huh?
**[12:52] ---**
Now is not the time to think about loyalties.
**[12:55] ---**
This facility is part
of that insane experiment--
**[12:57] ---**
Ah, never mind about that.
**[13:02] ---**
What my employer's objectives are,
**[13:04] ---**
whether the opponent
I'm eliminating is good or evil,
**[13:07] ---**
or what kind of life they've led...
**[13:11] ---**
All told, those sorts of things...
**[13:18] ---**
...don't really matter to me.
**[13:21] ---**
Do you still not understand your situation?
**[13:23] ---**
All told, you often hear stories
**[13:26] ---**
about the hunter becoming the hunted.
**[13:30] ---**
Take a close look
at where you're standing.
**[13:40] ---**
Your retreat is cut off, and there
is nothing to shield yourself with!
**[13:44] ---**
Go ahead and get out of
this predicament, if you can!
**[13:50] ---**
Ugh, that was dumb.
You give thought to talking it out,
**[13:54] ---**
and this is what happens.
**[13:58] ---**
I really need to save as
much of my strength as I can.
**[14:02] ---**
She lifted up the floor with magnetism?!
**[14:04] ---**
Uh-oh! Could she
actually be a Level 5 esper?!
**[14:09] ---**
Have you made your peace?!
**[14:12] ---**
Then again, having too much
power can lead to carelessness.
**[14:18] ---**
Whoops...!
**[14:21] ---**
That's what you get
for coming at me so candidly!
**[14:25] ---**
A stun grenade? I got sloppy!
My eyes and ears...!
**[14:31] ---**
It's the moment when the
self-assured esper becomes trapped
**[14:36] ---**
that makes me feel
like I'm on top of the world!
**[14:48] ---**
All told, when you mess with me,
this is what happens to you!
**[14:52] ---**
All right! That's half the paycheck!
**[14:56] ---**
What shall I buy?
**[14:57] ---**
Half the paycheck! Half the paycheck!
Really, what shall I buy?
**[15:07] ---**
She's gone? That wasn't enough firepower
**[15:09] ---**
to blow her up without a trace.
**[15:11] ---**
Well, that means, all told...
**[15:15] ---**
It looks like you've done
your homework on Electromasters,
**[15:20] ---**
but when you get to my level,
**[15:22] ---**
EM waves provide me with
a picture of the space around me.
**[15:25] ---**
Whoa, there!
Best not to make any false moves.
**[15:29] ---**
The sight is coming back to my eyes now,
**[15:32] ---**
and at this range,
nothing is faster than my electric shocks.
**[15:36] ---**
Miji...
**[15:37] ---**
Huh?
**[15:38] ---**
Miji cavi capri citeva...
**[15:42] ---**
Huh? What is she saying?
**[15:42] ---**
sgichovire sgicacci slano...
**[15:43] ---**
That's not English or French. Huh?
**[15:46] ---**
happa fumifumi!
**[15:46] ---**
But that there sounded like Japanese...
**[15:48] ---**
No, there *is* no such language!
**[15:55] ---**
Explosive? She doesn't know when to quit.
**[16:00] ---**
What's that?
**[16:01] ---**
Academy City's specially-made
gaseous explosive,
**[16:05] ---**
"Ignis."
**[16:06] ---**
It won't do any harm to breathe it,
**[16:08] ---**
but with the force on
that canister earlier...
**[16:11] ---**
this room has now
become one gigantic bomb.
**[16:16] ---**
Do you know what would
happen if you used electricity now?
**[16:22] ---**
I think I'll kill you, nice and slow!
**[16:28] ---**
This isn't good.
Electricity is out of the question,
**[16:30] ---**
and manipulating objects with
magnetism runs the risk of friction.
**[16:45] ---**
What is with her?
**[16:47] ---**
It's not impossible that
she could kick up a spark
**[16:49] ---**
from the shock of her stamping around!
**[16:52] ---**
You look like you're watching
someone with a death wish.
**[16:54] ---**
The work I do is for the underworld.
**[16:57] ---**
You think I can do that
and still be afraid of dying?!
**[17:04] ---**
Yeah, right! As if that were true!
**[17:08] ---**
I'll die together with
you over my dead body!
**[17:11] ---**
What I tossed at you
first was the real thing, all right,
**[17:14] ---**
but what I dispersed afterward
is just ordinary nitrogen gas.
**[17:17] ---**
I didn't think you'd fall for it so badly!
**[17:22] ---**
What's the deal
with the underworld cleaner
**[17:24] ---**
they've got standing by?
**[17:26] ---**
Oh, nothing much.
She's just a little girl, not even that old.
**[17:30] ---**
Never mind her, I wonder
what's happening over there.
**[17:33] ---**
Who knows? Any means of external
identification have been cut off.
**[17:38] ---**
I just want to hurry and
get this move taken care of.
**[17:42] ---**
But if something happens...
**[17:44] ---**
That's why we called in a patsy,
**[17:46] ---**
who we can pin the
responsibility on, just in case, right?
**[17:49] ---**
There is that.
**[17:51] ---**
Sorry to keep you waiting,
Miss Nunotaba--
**[17:55] ---**
Huh?
**[17:56] ---**
Is she in the restroom?
**[18:05] ---**
Moving the Sisters that are
being adjusted would come last.
**[18:12] ---**
With the abrupt transfer of control
**[18:13] ---**
and a watch out for attackers,
they've ignored internal security.
**[18:19] ---**
If I'm going to put this
into action, it's now or never.
**[18:38] ---**
You're hanging in
there pretty well, aren't you?
**[18:40] ---**
But even so, if I don't end this soon,
**[18:43] ---**
Mugino and the others will show up.
**[18:47] ---**
I said before that I didn't
care about my target's life,
**[18:51] ---**
but this time, there is something
deeply moving about you.
**[18:55] ---**
That very moment when I take a life,
**[18:59] ---**
I am in control of someone else's destiny.
**[19:03] ---**
All told, it's as though this
person was born,
**[19:07] ---**
just so they could be killed by me.
**[19:11] ---**
Okay, then,
**[19:12] ---**
let me hear one good,
final scream out of you!
**[19:19] ---**
Wha--?
**[19:22] ---**
To be born, just to be killed, you say?
**[19:26] ---**
To just accept it, to take it for granted,
**[19:29] ---**
and not try to escape, or struggle
against it, or even seek any help
**[19:33] ---**
from such a godforsaken destiny as that...?
**[19:37] ---**
To hell with that!
**[19:46] ---**
A choke hold?
**[19:47] ---**
So that's it. She can get her
opponent without using shocks...
**[19:52] ---**
This is bad!
**[20:00] ---**
Not a bad idea, but still not--
**[20:10] ---**
Oof... That was a close call!
**[20:13] ---**
I came this close to blowing
my bottom half off in my own trap!
**[20:18] ---**
Good grief, my shapely legs would have--
**[20:20] ---**
Ah... I get it, I get it. So that's how it is.
**[20:24] ---**
All told, I went and fell for quite
the rudimentary bluff, huh?
**[20:30] ---**
Er, well, that is...
**[20:32] ---**
"All told," I said. It
must be rubbing off on me.
**[20:42] ---**
Tee-hee!
**[20:49] ---**
If I'm holding back
while shocking someone,
**[20:52] ---**
I'll sleep just fine if they
end up dying, so you know.
**[20:56] ---**
Tell me every last detail
you know about the project.
**[21:01] ---**
Who's the one in charge?
Who is it that hired you?
**[21:05] ---**
Yeah, see, it went through an intermediary.
**[21:09] ---**
Come to think of it,
you said someone was coming, huh?
**[21:13] ---**
Who?
**[21:14] ---**
There's no way I'm telling you that!
**[21:21] ---**
Unless you want to be burned to a cinder,
**[21:23] ---**
you've got three seconds to answer me.
**[21:27] ---**
Three...
**[21:27] ---**
No! I'll talk, I'll talk, I'll talk! I...
**[21:30] ---**
Two...
**[21:30] ---**
M-My tongue!
That last shock made me...
**[21:33] ---**
Just a minute! My tongue is
too numb to move! I can't talk, so...
**[21:37] ---**
One...
**[21:43] ---**
Zero.
**[21:47] ---**
I see. So you're not going
to sell out your friends, huh?
**[21:51] ---**
No, my tongue is just too numb.
**[21:53] ---**
Well, I can't say
I hold that against you--
**[22:04] ---**
It got so quiet in here...
**[22:08] ---**
I was sure that you'd been finished off.
**[22:12] ---**
Looks like I got here
in the nick of time, huh,
**[22:15] ---**
Frenda?
**[22:29] ---**
*While looking up
into an unfamiliar sky,*
**[22:35] ---**
*always, always walking with you*
**[22:41] ---**
*I was searching for
the future I thought I saw,*
**[22:47] ---**
*so unlike the one up until a day ago*
**[22:53] ---**
*When you touched my heart,
convinced by my blurred vision,*
**[23:02] ---**
*that I was wandering*
**[23:05] ---**
*everything started changing*
**[23:09] ---**
*After counting clouds until I grew
bored of it, they drifted far away again*
**[23:16] ---**
*I went after them, and found
my dreams for tomorrow*
**[23:21] ---**
*Assured that it's now or never,
your feelings get through to me*
**[23:28] ---**
*and someday, I'm sure,
I'll offer mine, too*
**[23:34] ---**
*Like the clouds, gently, gently,*
**[23:39] ---**
*moving forever, forever forward*
**[23:47] ---**

Misaka Mikoto...

"#9 AIM Stalker"
**[23:49] ---**
I'm bringing down the project!
**[23:50] ---**
I can't allow her to fight them by herself.
**[23:53] ---**
I'm going to save the rest of them!
**[23:54] ---**
Yes, I will do what I can.

**[00:26] ---**
So you're not going to
sell out your friends, huh?
**[00:28] ---**
No, my tongue is just too numb.
**[00:30] ---**
Well, I can't say
I hold that against you--
**[00:38] ---**
Moving the Sisters that are
being adjusted would come last.
**[00:45] ---**
With the abrupt transfer of control
**[00:46] ---**
and a watch put out for attackers,
they've ignored internal security.
**[00:51] ---**
If I'm going to put this
into action, it's now or never.
**[01:06] ---**
S Processor--the institute for
practical neuroscience analysis?
**[01:10] ---**
Yes. I apologize for the sudden notice,
**[01:13] ---**
but I was wondering if you
could come over here at once.
**[01:16] ---**
I can fill you in later, once you arrive.
**[01:45] ---**
There are over twenty facilities
involved in this project.
**[01:51] ---**
Are you planning to do this alone?
**[01:55] ---**
Who do you take me for?
**[02:00] ---**
I am the one who sowed this seed.
**[02:04] ---**
I will be the one...
**[02:06] ---**
...to clean it up.
**[02:11] ---**
"I will be the one," is right.
**[03:08] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[03:11] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[03:14] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings
we've built up together*
**[03:24] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*
**[03:31] ---**
*while I am unable to sense your pain*
**[03:37] ---**
*If the dreams you
committed to me that day*
**[03:41] ---**
*end up tearing me apart,*
**[03:44] ---**
*don't ever let go of that hope*
**[03:47] ---**
*more precious than anything else*
**[03:53] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[03:56] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[03:59] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[04:03] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[04:06] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[04:09] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[04:12] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[04:19] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[04:29] ---**
It got so quiet in here,
**[04:31] ---**
I was sure that
you'd been finished off.
**[04:38] ---**
Looks like I got here in
the nick of time, huh, Frenda?
**[04:42] ---**
Mugino! Thank goodness!
**[04:46] ---**
For Pete's sake, I told you
to stick to keeping her confined
**[04:50] ---**
until the rest of us could join you.
**[04:55] ---**
You drove her this far,
**[04:56] ---**
had her turn the tables on you,
and got caught, of all things.
**[04:59] ---**
What were you thinking? You were
blinded by the quick-kill bonus.
**[05:06] ---**
It's all right, Frenda. I support
you when you get like that.
**[05:11] ---**
What do you mean, when I get like that?
**[05:26] ---**
So, you must be the
invader we've heard about.
**[05:30] ---**
She guarded against it...
No, she blew it away!
**[05:58] ---**
That's a pretty nimble trick, huh--
**[06:01] ---**
darting about,
and sticking to the wall like that?
**[06:03] ---**
Almost like a spider.
**[06:07] ---**
Why, that...
**[06:09] ---**
Takitsubo...
**[06:16] ---**
Use them.
**[06:19] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[06:26] ---**
Did you see her?
**[06:28] ---**
No, she wasn't this way.
**[06:30] ---**
Where on earth did she disappear to?
**[06:33] ---**
For crying out loud, *now*,
when we're so busy...
**[06:36] ---**
I guess we should contact
those cleaner people, just in case.
**[06:39] ---**
I hope this doesn't
turn into a whole affair.
**[06:42] ---**
Yeah, right.
**[06:59] ---**
Well... let's get started.
**[07:14] ---**
She evaded it? No, she's
forcibly turning away my shocks!
**[07:24] ---**
Whoo, what a spectacle!
**[07:51] ---**
Yikes!
**[07:53] ---**
I don't know why, but I'm
getting a whiff of danger from her.
**[08:10] ---**
Trying to blind us, are you?
This won't even buy you time to...
**[08:16] ---**
Tch... she got away.
**[08:20] ---**
Takitsubo?
**[08:21] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[08:22] ---**
It's all right. I've memorized
the target's AIM diffusion field.
**[08:32] ---**
The odds are against even me,
**[08:33] ---**
going up against three of them like that.
**[08:35] ---**
Destroying the facility comes first.
**[08:40] ---**
Oh, no!
**[08:41] ---**
I've overused my ability! My power...!
**[08:49] ---**
How? I've been moving in a random,
roundabout way, so how did she...?
**[08:54] ---**
A lucky guess?
**[08:58] ---**
No, not this.
**[09:02] ---**
She's dodging us.
**[09:04] ---**
Scanned target remains.
**[09:06] ---**
Tch, did she leap up to the ceiling?
**[09:09] ---**
Her moving around in
three dimensions is a real pain.
**[09:12] ---**
Takitsubo...
**[09:14] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[09:15] ---**
Whoo...
**[09:17] ---**
As amazing as ever.
**[09:20] ---**
That's what you get from
Academy City's 4th-ranked Level 5,
**[09:25] ---**
"Meltdowner,"
**[09:27] ---**
as well as,
**[09:29] ---**
the ability to scan someone's location data,
**[09:31] ---**
even if they flee to the other
side of the world--Takitsubo's...
**[09:34] ---**
"AIM Stalker."
**[09:36] ---**
ITEM boasts this powerful
Level 5 and Level 4 combo.
**[09:40] ---**
Is there anyone who
can escape from this duo?
**[09:44] ---**
Aww towd, not vewy wikewy!
**[09:46] ---**
Ow, I can tawk!
**[09:55] ---**
I don't know who that was,
**[09:58] ---**
but her capture is only a matter of time.
**[10:02] ---**
All that's left is to box
her in so she can't escape.
**[10:17] ---**
Misaka Mikoto is raiding that facility...
**[10:20] ---**
Even if she is successful,
it probably won't stall the project.
**[10:26] ---**
The murkiness that
is Level 6 is ever so dark...
**[10:30] ---**
...and deep...
**[10:38] ---**
This is all the emotional data the
research has gathered up to now.
**[10:43] ---**
I'm going to install
this into their brains.
**[10:47] ---**
I doubt that they will
sprout any genuine feelings
**[10:49] ---**
from a program as minor as this one,
**[10:51] ---**
but it should at least
provide a simulated response.
**[10:54] ---**
"Preparing installation..."
**[10:56] ---**
I don't know whether
this will drive them
**[10:58] ---**
to suspend the project or not.
**[11:00] ---**
However, it should at
least show the girls another path,
**[11:04] ---**
besides the hopeless
railway of death they are on.
**[11:10] ---**
Perhaps from among all the Sisters,
**[11:12] ---**
who are resigned to
dying as a matter of course,
**[11:15] ---**
some will emerge
who lament their fate.
**[11:19] ---**
Perhaps some researchers will
emerge who have gained a sense
**[11:23] ---**
that they are more than just
guinea pigs when they see them.
**[11:26] ---**
And then, as unlikely
as it might be...
**[11:31] ---**
...the cries of the girls who
do not want to fight anymore...
**[11:37] ---**
...might just touch someone's heart.
**[11:43] ---**
It probably is ridiculous,
**[11:46] ---**
and it is probably
pointless to be doing this,
**[11:51] ---**
but...
**[11:53] ---**
...what I felt at that moment...
**[12:02] ---**
I considered that you might
be an authorized staff member,
**[12:04] ---**
so I checked with the people upstairs,
**[12:07] ---**
but they said that until the
data relocation had been completed,
**[12:10] ---**
this place was ultra-off-limits.
**[12:16] ---**
They suspect that the attacks
are the work of one person,
**[12:19] ---**
but it's best not dismiss
the possibility that one attack
**[12:22] ---**
could be just an ultra-diversion.
**[12:24] ---**
As such, while the defense
team has been alerted
**[12:26] ---**
to the attack on the *other* facility,
**[12:28] ---**
the commando unit
should deal with that,
**[12:30] ---**
while ultra-tightening
their own defenses.
**[12:36] ---**
Apparently, Mugino's insight
was ultra-on-the-money, huh?
**[12:45] ---**
"#9 AIM Stalker"
**[12:52] ---**
Incoming!
**[12:57] ---**
Tch! Frenda!
**[12:59] ---**
Okay!
**[13:00] ---**
All told, setting up over the
whole facility was the right move!
**[13:17] ---**
Sure enough, they're aware
of every move I'm making.
**[13:22] ---**
There's no question, they've got
a psychometrist or a clairvoyant.
**[13:27] ---**
In any case, there's an esper
there who can pinpoint my location.
**[13:33] ---**
All right!
**[13:35] ---**
Good grief! I am definitely at
a disadvantage here. However...
**[13:47] ---**
Please stop your pointless struggling.
**[13:50] ---**
I'm turning you over to my
client now. Resistance is ultra-futile.
**[14:00] ---**
Resistance is futile...
**[14:04] ---**
Maybe... You might be right...
**[14:08] ---**
This project isn't
the only thing at issue...
**[14:15] ---**
Even supposing I am
able to derail this project...
**[14:19] ---**
...can the clones live out normal lives?
**[14:23] ---**
Their soulless, human eyes...
their shortened lifespans...
**[14:28] ---**
An even crueler fate
awaits them, does it not?
**[14:34] ---**
If so, better to stay this course.
**[14:38] ---**
And yet...
**[14:45] ---**
She has had to bear
the weight of all of this alone.
**[14:50] ---**
Truly... a foolish girl.
**[14:55] ---**
Yes, this is a sin that we
should have been the ones to bear.
**[14:59] ---**
This is a chance for them
to carve out their own destinies.
**[15:06] ---**
What?!
**[15:07] ---**
Why, you...!
**[15:08] ---**
It's no use.
**[15:10] ---**
The installation is complete.
**[15:12] ---**
"Installation complete."
"Connecting to Misaka Network."
**[15:13] ---**
They are all connected
via a brainwave link,
**[15:16] ---**
called the "Misaka Network."
**[15:20] ---**
The emotion program that I installed
**[15:23] ---**
is shared by all of the Sisters.
**[15:27] ---**
Nobody can stop it now.
**[15:33] ---**
"Connection has been
terminated by the network."
**[15:36] ---**
What's going on here?
**[15:38] ---**
I'm not entirely sure,
**[15:41] ---**
but it looks like your plan ultra-failed.
**[15:44] ---**
I-It can't be...
**[15:45] ---**
When did they put this security in?
**[16:01] ---**
What should we do with her?
**[16:04] ---**
We'll ultra-haul her upstairs.
**[16:06] ---**
Roger.
**[16:06] ---**
Come on, get up!
**[16:09] ---**
Now, start walking!
**[16:23] ---**
W-Why, you--
**[16:24] ---**
Don't move!
**[16:27] ---**
I'd like to not have
to use this, if possible.
**[16:30] ---**
For now, just back off.
**[16:34] ---**
I ultra-can't do that.
**[16:56] ---**
At this stage of the game,
**[16:57] ---**
your consideration in
not shooting anything vital
**[17:00] ---**
is ultra-commendable.
**[17:02] ---**
But my "Offense Armor" cannot
be penetrated by a mere pistol.
**[17:15] ---**
Please carry her
upstairs, ultra-post-haste.
**[17:17] ---**
R-Right.
**[17:19] ---**
Ugh... Damn...
**[17:22] ---**
Huh? That capsule in there--
it looks like someone's inside it.
**[17:26] ---**
If you keep ultra-staring
at stuff unrelated to the job,
**[17:29] ---**
then you could be ultra-eliminated,
to keep your mouth shut.
**[17:33] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[17:34] ---**
Come on, now, please make it snappy.
**[17:38] ---**
What do you think will happen to her?
**[17:40] ---**
Who cares?
**[17:41] ---**
We're just ultra-doing our jobs.
**[17:44] ---**
If she's of any use,
**[17:45] ---**
she'll probably have
her life spared, at least.
**[17:48] ---**
But then,
**[17:50] ---**
an ultra-piece-of-crap existence,
**[17:53] ---**
where she's lost everything
but her life, is what awaits her.
**[18:10] ---**
Target has moved
twenty meters northwest.
**[18:15] ---**
I just can't seem to hit her, huh?
**[18:17] ---**
It's not just that she's
moving in three dimensions.
**[18:20] ---**
She may be able to detect my attacks.
**[18:23] ---**
The only espers who could do that...
**[18:26] ---**
Are you okay?
**[18:28] ---**
Mm-hmm, I'm fine.
**[18:33] ---**
Takitsubo's "AIM Stalker" comes in handy,
**[18:37] ---**
but it's a power difficult to invoke,
**[18:39] ---**
which must be intentionally overdriven,
**[18:42] ---**
and has a limit to its usage.
**[18:44] ---**
The distance the intruder has
been moving is starting to shrink.
**[18:48] ---**
There's no doubt that
she's near her breaking point.
**[18:51] ---**
It's not worth it to
use Takitsubo any longer.
**[18:55] ---**
If we've pushed her this far,
and she still hasn't run away,
**[18:58] ---**
it means that there's some factor
**[18:59] ---**
that is compelling
her to destroy this place.
**[19:03] ---**
Which means that if we
wait for her at her destination,
**[19:07] ---**
she is certain to show up.
**[19:10] ---**
She's a wounded beast,
not only completely worn out,
**[19:12] ---**
but also lacking her composure.
**[19:14] ---**
It's risky, but if I keep
my cool dealing with her,
**[19:17] ---**
I don't have to worry
about being left in her dust.
**[19:20] ---**
Still...
**[19:23] ---**
It's so unlike me to
set up an ambush, huh?
**[19:27] ---**
Frenda!
**[19:28] ---**
Eh?
**[19:37] ---**
Come on, move, Misaka Mikoto!
You don't have time... to take it easy!
**[19:48] ---**
Geez, don't they give up?!
**[19:52] ---**
Go on, go on, go on!
**[20:08] ---**
Bye-bye, spider-girl.
**[20:11] ---**
Incoming! I can't avoid it!
**[20:23] ---**
I knew it. I surmised as much
from the moment she curved my shock.
**[20:28] ---**
Her ability, at its root,
is the same variety as my own...
**[20:34] ---**
My Meltdowner...
**[20:40] ---**
Is something the matter, Mugino?
**[20:48] ---**
I get it. So that's it.
**[20:51] ---**
W-Whoa, Takitsubo!
**[20:55] ---**
A-Are... you... all... right...
Taki... tsubo...?
**[21:01] ---**
Frenda, take Takitsubo
and meet up with Kinuhata.
**[21:05] ---**
Huh?
**[21:06] ---**
I can still help.
**[21:08] ---**
This isn't just for your sake, Takitsubo.
**[21:10] ---**
Frenda, the damage you took
from that spider-girl is serious, huh?
**[21:14] ---**
You're playing through the pain,
but you're still lumbering around.
**[21:18] ---**
When Takitsubo reaches her limit,
she can't detect enemy attacks.
**[21:23] ---**
It's too hard even for me
to protect both of you alone.
**[21:29] ---**
I'm sorry we're holding you back.
**[21:36] ---**
It's not like I'm blaming you for it.
**[21:39] ---**
In fact, you did quite well.
**[21:42] ---**
Thanks to you two,
our opponent is on the ropes.
**[21:45] ---**
Let Kinuhata bring up
the rear, and get some rest.
**[21:52] ---**
Mugino...
**[21:53] ---**
She was kind of... nice to us.
**[22:00] ---**
Sure, I'd hate for anyone
to say that I managed to win
**[22:03] ---**
because I overpowered her with numbers.
**[22:05] ---**

I'll offer mine, too*

Railgun of Tokiwadai,
**[23:48] ---**
"#10 Meltdowner"
**[23:50] ---**
why don't you come and face me head-on?!
**[23:52] ---**
I've come this far,
**[23:53] ---**
and while I'm here doing
this, those girls are...
**[23:55] ---**
Stay out of my way!

**[00:34] ---**
The attacks have stopped?
**[00:37] ---**
I don't think that
means they're letting me go.
**[00:39] ---**
Are they waiting to see my next move?
**[00:49] ---**
If they have an esper who
can pinpoint someone's location,
**[00:53] ---**
then trying to hide
would completely backfire.
**[00:57] ---**
However...
**[00:58] ---**
if I do run into them,
**[01:01] ---**
I don't have very
much power left to fight them.
**[01:09] ---**
Is this tape from that blond girl...?
**[01:13] ---**
She has this stuff laid
out all over the facility?
**[01:17] ---**
That's trouble.
**[01:20] ---**
But that means...
**[01:46] ---**
Can I use these?
**[02:02] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[02:06] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[02:09] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings
we've built up together*
**[02:19] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*
**[02:26] ---**
*while I am unable to sense your pain*
**[02:32] ---**
*If the dreams you
committed to me that day*
**[02:36] ---**
*end up tearing me apart,*
**[02:39] ---**
*don't ever let go of that hope*
**[02:42] ---**
*more precious than anything else*
**[02:47] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[02:51] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[02:54] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[02:58] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[03:00] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[03:04] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[03:07] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[03:14] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[03:21] ---**
Good work in there.
**[03:22] ---**
We're meeting up with Kinuhata.
Take us to S Processor.
**[03:26] ---**
You two wait here
until Mugino comes out.
**[03:29] ---**
As you wish.
**[03:35] ---**
Phew, I'm exhausted.
**[03:38] ---**
Frenda...
**[03:41] ---**
Frenda, if it was just you,
you wouldn't have to withdraw.
**[03:44] ---**
Not to worry, not to worry.
We can let Mugino handle it from here.
**[03:50] ---**
All told, she was being
driven pretty lopsidedly,
**[03:52] ---**
thanks to you, Takitsubo.
**[03:54] ---**
But never mind that,
**[03:55] ---**
are you sure you should be
using your power so recklessly?
**[03:58] ---**
I was starting to get
alarmed, watching you.
**[04:01] ---**
Mm-hmm, I'm fine.
**[04:04] ---**
This is the only place...
I belong, after all.
**[04:09] ---**
Okay.
**[04:11] ---**
I hope someday, you have somewhere
else to belong, too, Takitsubo.
**[04:24] ---**
What?
**[04:26] ---**
My bombs...
**[04:27] ---**
I forgot to retrieve them...!
**[04:38] ---**
You're finally here, huh?
**[04:40] ---**
You must be running on
boardroom standard time, huh?
**[04:46] ---**
Wha--?
**[04:47] ---**
Frenda...! You just bolted
without cleaning up after yourself?
**[04:55] ---**
Where are your other pals?
**[04:57] ---**
I sent them away.
**[04:59] ---**
I wanted to take
you on one-on-one,
**[05:01] ---**
Railgun.
**[05:03] ---**
The cat's out of the bag, huh?
Well, that's okay.
**[05:06] ---**
Her wanting this
to be person-to-person...
**[05:08] ---**
...happens to work out...
better for me!
**[05:12] ---**
Ah, so that's it.
**[05:22] ---**
So you're using Frenda's bombs
to make up for your diminished power?
**[05:26] ---**
But by doing so,
**[05:28] ---**
you're as much as admitting
that you can't defeat me on your own!
**[05:32] ---**
Her ability can even
deflect blast waves? In that case...!
**[05:37] ---**
The same thing will happen every time.
**[05:39] ---**
No--she's planning to
use the blast to hide herself,
**[05:42] ---**
and swing around behind?
Or maybe she's blowing me off,
**[05:45] ---**
and charging her way
to the database inside?
**[05:47] ---**
Then again, if I shoot it down first...
**[05:52] ---**
What?! Did you rig the dolls somehow?!
**[05:55] ---**
Yeah, I put metal in them,
so I could control them magnetically!
**[05:57] ---**
Tch, you're a real pain in the neck!
**[06:02] ---**
Hmph!
**[06:03] ---**
I'm sure you can shoot it down,
when there's just one of them...
**[06:06] ---**
Huh?
**[06:09] ---**
But what about when there's
*this* many of them?!
**[06:26] ---**
From what I can see,
**[06:27] ---**
she can't lay down a curtain of
fire with her type of ability.
**[06:30] ---**
Which means...
**[06:31] ---**
What, if you overwhelm me with numbers,
you can incapacitate me?
**[06:48] ---**
"Silicon Burn."
**[06:50] ---**
Of *course* I'm going to take
steps to shore up my weaknesses.
**[06:54] ---**
Give ITEM its due, you dirty brat!
**[06:58] ---**
Thanks to that imbecile Frenda,
I have to go to a bit of trouble...
**[07:05] ---**
...but I guess that's the best
your middle-school brain can do.
**[07:08] ---**
Sheesh,
**[07:10] ---**
Third-ranked my ass!
**[07:12] ---**
Measured by the profits generated
**[07:13] ---**
by the research applications of your ability,
**[07:15] ---**
*You* get ranked third,
**[07:17] ---**
while *I* get ranked fourth?!
**[07:21] ---**
If I slaughter you right now,
**[07:24] ---**
I bet I can prove that's got
nothing to do with it!
**[07:31] ---**
The fourth-ranked Level 5?
Which means,
**[07:34] ---**
that's "Meltdowner"? Her?
**[07:38] ---**
There are only three left, are there?
**[07:45] ---**
Huh?
**[07:46] ---**
What's the matter?
**[07:48] ---**
Don't tell me you've run out of
moves, now, have you?
**[07:57] ---**
You little brat.
**[07:58] ---**
An all-or-nothing suicide
attack, is it?
**[08:05] ---**
Geez, not only are you a hack,
you already blew your wad?
**[08:09] ---**
What?! Another one?!
**[08:11] ---**
You had one down her back?!
**[08:15] ---**
A shield!
**[08:16] ---**
No, at this range, there's not
enough time! Damn it!
**[08:21] ---**
Yeah, right!
**[08:26] ---**
Have you forgotten? I can also
interfere with your shocks.
**[08:32] ---**
You didn't really think "I won!"
just now, did you?
**[08:37] ---**
This fight was over as soon as it started,
**[08:40] ---**
Railgu--
**[08:46] ---**
Have *you* forgotten?
**[08:48] ---**
I told you, I rigged these
things with metal.
**[08:51] ---**
They're lethal enough,
even without exploding.
**[09:08] ---**
Is this the place?
**[09:33] ---**
I guess that should
just about do it for now.
**[09:37] ---**
I'd have liked to have
made sure everything burned,
**[09:41] ---**
but in the shape I'm in,
I'd end up being caught up in it myself.
**[09:45] ---**
The problem is that other facility.
**[09:48] ---**
If there are espers there of the
same level as there were here,
**[09:51] ---**
I'm not very...
**[09:54] ---**
Why...?
**[09:56] ---**
That woman is gone!
**[09:58] ---**
There's no way she should have
been able to move so soon!
**[10:09] ---**
Hey, now, don't go lounging around on me.
**[10:12] ---**
I'm going to pay you
back a trillion times over
**[10:15] ---**
for what you did to me, starting right now!
**[10:16] ---**
"#10 Meltdowner"
**[10:23] ---**
Oh, come on, what's the matter?
Get up, already,
**[10:28] ---**
or I'll turn you to charcoal
where you lie!
**[10:32] ---**
Spry little girl, huh?
**[10:36] ---**
Lucky for me, I haven't had
anything to eat these last few days.
**[10:41] ---**
Stop running away, you hussy!
**[10:44] ---**
Get up on your high horse as soon
as you're out of bombs, will you?
**[10:47] ---**
You're a disgrace
to your third-place rank!
**[10:49] ---**
I'm sure it will manage to
get over it, somehow!
**[10:52] ---**
I've accomplished my goal.
All I have to do now is get out.
**[10:55] ---**
Now that the electrical
systems are shot,
**[10:57] ---**
I've got three escape routes.
**[10:59] ---**
If I go down the emergency stairs--
**[11:01] ---**
no, given her ability, she can
punch through the whole staircase.
**[11:05] ---**
There's also very little
space in which to dodge her.
**[11:08] ---**
Maybe I could take the mazelike
route to the freight entrance.
**[11:11] ---**
But then, there's only one way through.
**[11:14] ---**
If it's blocked in even one place,
I'll be trapped like a rat.
**[11:17] ---**
Which leaves...
**[11:23] ---**
Oh-h, you really want this to be a draw?
**[11:26] ---**
Scampering away from me like that,
**[11:29] ---**
I guess you're not a spider,
but a cockroach, aren't you?!
**[11:33] ---**
In that case, I'll squash you accordingly!
**[11:40] ---**
Yes?
**[11:41] ---**
It's Kinuhata.
**[11:43] ---**
What? I'm at the ultra-best part
right now, so keep it short.
**[11:47] ---**
They've ultra-finished their
preparations to relocate.
**[11:50] ---**
Takitsubo and Frenda
have just arrived, too.
**[11:54] ---**
Huh?
**[11:55] ---**
Unless something comes up,
**[11:55] ---**
So not even collapsing her
footing works, does it?
**[11:56] ---**
I can ultra-escort them, and...
**[11:58] ---**
In that case, I'll get her directly...
**[12:00] ---**
Mugino?
**[12:01] ---**
Yes... Yes...
Ultra-acknowledged.
**[12:06] ---**
Huh? You want me to tell her
ultra-word-for-word?
**[12:10] ---**
All right. Bye, then.
**[12:13] ---**
She says we can ultra-proceed.
**[12:16] ---**
U-Uh, listen...
**[12:18] ---**
Yes?
**[12:18] ---**
Did Mugino, you know, sound like
she was mad, or anything?
**[12:22] ---**
You know, about the bombs?
**[12:25] ---**
No. She did sound
ultra-keyed-up, though.
**[12:28] ---**
Thank goodness!
**[12:30] ---**
However, she did have an
ultra-message for you Frenda.
**[12:32] ---**
Huh? What, what?
**[12:34] ---**
"Your punishment is guaranteed,"
she said.
**[12:46] ---**
Can I make it all
the way out this way?
**[13:14] ---**
Parry, parry, parry! Is that it?!
**[13:17] ---**
Don't make me laugh, you little brat!
**[13:20] ---**
Do you think you can do anything
about the "darkness" of this town
**[13:23] ---**
by fighting like you're on
the playground?!
**[13:27] ---**
Come on, make this
more entertaining for me!
**[13:30] ---**
Unless you want to become a
quaint *objet d'art* with a modernist flair!
**[13:48] ---**
I know you're desperate,
but you sure picked a place to flee to
**[13:51] ---**
that all but says "Please, kill me."
**[13:54] ---**
Third-ranked, in a pig's eye!
**[13:56] ---**
You're just a wet-behind-the-ears
little girl, aren't you?!
**[13:58] ---**
As long as you're here,
why don't you show some gumption,
**[14:01] ---**
and shoot off that Railgun that
you're so good at, one last time?
**[14:11] ---**
Hey, it's no fun if you go
crazy before I can torture you.
**[14:17] ---**
Yeah...
**[14:18] ---**
Right now, I don't have enough power left
**[14:21] ---**
to avoid one of your blasts,
much less use my Railgun.
**[14:25] ---**
That's why I gambled on taking this route.
**[14:28] ---**
Huh?
**[14:29] ---**
That blond pal of yours
really gave me a hard time of it.
**[14:34] ---**
Blowing me away with her bombs,
tricking me, and kicking me. Also,
**[14:39] ---**
she nearly made me fall,
along with the floor beneath me.
**[14:42] ---**
You know?
**[14:44] ---**
That's why I wagered
**[14:46] ---**
that if she set up traps all
over the place,
**[14:49] ---**
there was sure to be something set up,
even in a place like this.
**[14:55] ---**
Even in my present state,
**[14:57] ---**
I can still take the
place of that tool she used.
**[15:01] ---**
You shouldn't scoff at playground
fighting, should you, Auntie?
**[15:07] ---**
Frenda!!
**[15:19] ---**
Grab hold!
**[15:26] ---**
No way... She didn't just...
**[15:34] ---**
Hey, get down here!
**[15:36] ---**
This isn't over yet!
**[15:36] ---**
She's not dead?! She's tough!
**[15:42] ---**
She ran away, did she? Ow!
**[15:46] ---**
My Meltdowner rays
may have slowed me down,
**[15:49] ---**
but they did not make
for a very smart landing.
**[15:52] ---**
Guess I'll have to adjust that.
**[15:55] ---**
I'll call Takitsubo back right away,
and this time, for sure...
**[16:00] ---**
No... That girl is a student at
Tokiwadai isn't she?
**[16:04] ---**
What was she after here in the first place?
**[16:11] ---**
I accomplished my objective here.
But that final location...
**[16:18] ---**
My power is all gone.
**[16:21] ---**
Shoot...
**[16:24] ---**
Hey, hurry! Most of upstairs
is engulfed in flames!
**[16:27] ---**
Huh? But they're still here!
**[16:29] ---**
Just leave that junk there!
**[16:33] ---**
Damn! They hired someone
from the underworld...
**[16:35] ---**
Weren't we supposed to be safe?
**[16:38] ---**
For crying out loud, they're useless--
**[16:43] ---**
W-What...?
**[16:45] ---**
I've become interested in the project
**[16:47] ---**
that Railgun came here to destroy.
**[16:50] ---**
Show me.
**[16:51] ---**
Th-There's no way I can do that!
**[16:53] ---**
If I leaked anything outside the
company, *I'd* be eliminated--
**[16:57] ---**
Between becoming a greasy lump
of flesh, right here and now,
**[17:02] ---**
and taking the very slim chance
of living life on the run,
**[17:06] ---**
which would you like?
**[17:12] ---**
What is this?!
**[17:14] ---**
*This* is what they're putting the
great first-ranked up to?!
**[17:17] ---**
Leveling up by pummeling
20,000 pieces of slime?!
**[17:22] ---**
What is the governing board of
Academy City thinking...?
**[17:28] ---**
Ah, so *that's* it.
And then, those of us in ITEM...
**[17:34] ---**
That should be interesting, shouldn't it?
**[17:37] ---**
They can just go down, writhing in pain.
**[17:40] ---**
Down to the bottom of
Academy City's darkness, huh?
**[18:01] ---**
It's morning already?
**[18:14] ---**
Aww, I look like a mess.
**[18:24] ---**
S Processor, the institute for
practical neuroscience analysis...
**[18:28] ---**
The last location,
which I failed to bring down yesterday.
**[18:31] ---**
Or at least it should be.
**[18:38] ---**
This is weird. It's not just
the lack of traffic in and out.
**[18:42] ---**
Never mind security, there isn't
a single electrical device at work.
**[18:46] ---**
Is it a trap?
**[19:03] ---**
There's no one here, all right.
**[19:05] ---**
And not only that,
all of the data has been erased.
**[19:15] ---**
After yesterday's battle,
did they give up on carrying it out?
**[19:20] ---**
"S Processor Goes Bankrupt
/ School District 7"
**[19:20] ---**
I don't know if they can't sustain
the project with just one location.
**[19:27] ---**
I drove them...
until they backed down.
**[19:34] ---**
Does that mean...
**[19:36] ---**
...it's over?
**[19:39] ---**
Really? Somehow,
that seems unrealistic.
**[19:43] ---**
Maybe because of the string
of surreal events I've been through.
**[19:59] ---**
Farewell, Big Sister.
**[20:12] ---**
Ah, so that's it.
**[20:13] ---**
I was wondering what this was,
since it wasn't scheduled.
**[20:17] ---**
You're... the Original, huh?
**[20:23] ---**
I'm Accelerator.
**[20:26] ---**
It's a pleasure.
**[20:28] ---**
Why?!
**[20:30] ---**
You're alive, aren't you?!
You have life, don't you?!
**[20:33] ---**
Even such as you are?!
**[20:36] ---**
Misaka is a product
created for this project.
**[20:41] ---**
Artificial bodies with artificial minds.
**[20:45] ---**
She is a laboratory animal,
at a unit price of ¥180,000 each.
**[20:59] ---**
It's not like everything that
happened is just going to vanish.
**[21:04] ---**
There are still many things that
I am going to have to do.
**[21:09] ---**
But still...
**[21:11] ---**
...the experiments are over.
**[21:15] ---**
Those girls...
**[21:32] ---**
Those girls...
don't have to die anymore...
**[21:37] ---**
Misaka, we're all here for you.
**[21:40] ---**
If you ever have too much on your plate,
**[21:42] ---**
just say the word, any time, okay?
**[21:49] ---**
Guys, I'm coming home now.
**[21:59] ---**
Huh?!
**[22:04] ---**
What is it with this thing?
**[22:06] ---**
That's strange...
**[22:09] ---**
I don't suppose there's any
chance it's out of order.
**[22:15] ---**
Seriously?
**[22:29] ---**
*While looking up
into an unfamiliar sky,*
**[22:35] ---**
*always, always walking with you*
**[22:41] ---**
*I was searching for
the future I thought I saw,*
**[22:47] ---**
*so unlike the one up until a day ago*
**[22:53] ---**
*When you touched my heart,
convinced by my blurred vision,*
**[23:01] ---**
*that I was wandering*
**[23:05] ---**
*everything started changing*

*After counting clouds until I grew
bored of it, they drifted far away again*
**[23:16] ---**
*I went after them, and found
my dreams for tomorrow*
**[23:21] ---**
*Assured that it's now or never,
your feelings get through to me*
**[23:27] ---**
*and someday, I'm sure,
I'll offer mine, too*

*Like the clouds, gently, gently,*

*moving forever, forever forward*

**[00:23] ---**
Huh?!
**[00:26] ---**
What is it with this thing?
**[00:28] ---**
Is that...
**[00:30] ---**
You're a cutie. Whoo!
And from Tokiwadai, at that.
**[00:35] ---**
Wanna come with
us and have a little fun?
**[00:37] ---**
We'll take you home.
No telling when that will be, though.
**[00:45] ---**
These guys are idiots
for talking to me. And sure,
**[00:51] ---**
it's not like those guys
are without pity. I can tell that.
**[00:55] ---**
And really, it's not like they could
cut in here and do something.
**[00:59] ---**
They'd just get hurt.
**[01:00] ---**
What are you looking at?
**[01:01] ---**
Everyone has to look out
for themselves. That's normal.
**[01:04] ---**
And supposing there is someone
who would do so for a stranger,
**[01:08] ---**
then that person is just a fool.
**[01:10] ---**
Oh, there you are!
**[01:11] ---**
Hey, thanks for keeping her company.
**[01:14] ---**
You know you shouldn't wander off like that.
**[01:20] ---**
That's strange...
**[01:23] ---**
I don't suppose there's
any chance it's out of order.
**[01:26] ---**
Seriously?
**[03:00] ---**
Hey, come on, give me a break.
Give me back my money!
**[03:04] ---**
Hey, there!
**[03:07] ---**
Don't just stand there like an idiot.
**[03:09] ---**
If you're not buying anything,
then stand aside!
**[03:11] ---**
Eh? Huh? I am...
**[03:12] ---**
I have to rehydrate as soon as possible,
**[03:16] ---**
or I'm going to just fall apart.
**[03:25] ---**
So, what's with you, pal?
**[03:28] ---**
I do have...
**[03:33] ---**
...a name--Misaka Mikoto!
**[03:35] ---**
Remember it already, you idiot!
**[03:42] ---**
I see things are as messed up as ever.
**[03:45] ---**
How is it that my shocks don't work on you?
**[03:48] ---**
I don't know! And *you* shouldn't
go using your ability without warning!
**[03:52] ---**
Well, anyhow, if you're not going
to buy anything, I'll go ahead.
**[03:56] ---**
I've got some serious business
with this vending machine.
**[03:59] ---**
Uh, about this vending machine...
**[04:02] ---**
It tends to eat your money.
I, Kamijo Toma,
**[04:05] ---**
had what little
money that was on me--
**[04:06] ---**
Did you get yoinked?
**[04:08] ---**
Eh? Did you really get yoinked?
How much did you get taken for?
**[04:15] ---**
Â¥2000.
**[04:16] ---**
Â¥2000?! You mean
you used a ¥2000 bill?!
**[04:21] ---**
Well of *course* a vending
machine will munch that!
**[04:29] ---**
I got a really good laugh out of that,
**[04:31] ---**
so I'll get it back for you.
**[04:34] ---**
Eh?
**[04:34] ---**
I mean, this thing
once took ¥10,000 of mine...
**[04:39] ---**
Hmm?
**[04:40] ---**
Nothing. I'm just saying,
I'm going to get your money's worth
**[04:44] ---**
for everything this
thing took from you.
**[04:46] ---**
Um, the only feeling I'm
getting about this is a bad one...
**[04:55] ---**
Thank you for waiting.
**[04:57] ---**
Thanks.
**[04:59] ---**
Is that right?
**[05:01] ---**
Same old Miss Misaka as ever, huh?
**[05:03] ---**
Yes.
**[05:04] ---**
I had made up my mind to
believe in Sissy, and wait for her, too.
**[05:09] ---**
If Sissy were to
see me looking like this,
**[05:11] ---**
I would instead be
the one worrying her.
**[05:18] ---**
I am just hopeless, am I not?
**[05:22] ---**
She went out every night
without eating anything,
**[05:26] ---**
not to mention being unable
to provide any details
**[05:28] ---**
to Shirai or either of us.
**[05:30] ---**
I refrained from coming out and
saying anything, but sure enough,
**[05:36] ---**
a boy... is the only explanation.
**[05:38] ---**
A b--b--b--
**[05:41] ---**
I tell you, that is not it--
**[05:42] ---**
Then, the reason Miss Misaka
has been acting strangely is...
**[05:45] ---**
Exactly. She's lovestruck.
**[05:48] ---**
Th-That's it! Indeed, she could not
turn to any of us for advice,
**[05:53] ---**
and there is plenty of
reason to keep it a secret!
**[05:56] ---**
I know, right?
**[05:57] ---**
But since we're talking
about Miss Misaka here,
**[06:01] ---**
I'm sure he must be a gentleman
as handsome as a prince.
**[06:05] ---**
Oh, no, I think Misaka is the
type that is attracted to someone
**[06:08] ---**
who sees her as the only girl for him.
**[06:12] ---**
Ah!
**[06:13] ---**
Then again, since she doesn't come
home every night until morning...
**[06:16] ---**
You don't think Miss Misaka is...!
**[06:22] ---**
What's the matter, Uiharu?
**[06:23] ---**
Th-There is no way...
Not Sissy, of all people...
**[06:28] ---**
An alarm?
**[06:30] ---**
Whoa, you're quick to react.
**[06:31] ---**
That...
**[06:33] ---**
...is a vending machine alarm, isn't it?
**[06:36] ---**
Miss Shirai?
**[06:37] ---**
The vending machine
in that area? Could it be?
**[06:41] ---**
Um, Miss Shirai?
**[06:43] ---**
I will go check it out.
**[06:45] ---**
Huh? Okay, I'll come, too.
**[06:46] ---**
No, if anything happens, I will contact you.
**[06:47] ---**
Huh? Wait...
**[06:52] ---**
Hey, wait up!
**[06:59] ---**
It's... hopeless...
**[07:02] ---**
Geez...
**[07:03] ---**
Why are you running away?
**[07:05] ---**
I got out everything that
machine owed you, you know.
**[07:09] ---**
Well, I didn't really...
**[07:13] ---**
These belong to you
in the first place, right?
**[07:15] ---**
If I accept this,
I become an accomplice, don't I?
**[07:18] ---**
Here.
**[07:18] ---**
There's more where that came from.
**[07:20] ---**
Whoa! Hold on! Hold on! Ow!
Hey, there are hot ones mixed in!
**[07:26] ---**
I couldn't help it, you know.
**[07:28] ---**
I can't choose the kind of
drink that comes out, after all.
**[07:32] ---**
And as for you,
**[07:34] ---**
as strong as you are,
you run away too much.
**[07:36] ---**
And since I lost to you,
where does that leave me?
**[07:40] ---**
Eh? What did you just say?
**[07:43] ---**
Both in town and
out on the riverbed,
**[07:45] ---**
you've toyed around with
me time and again, haven't you?!
**[07:48] ---**
I-I've been getting into
fights with a middle-school girl?
**[07:51] ---**
Sheesh, as intense as it got,
**[07:54] ---**
I'm not going to let you get
away with saying you've forgotten!
**[07:56] ---**
What have I been doing?
**[07:59] ---**
Whatever, just drink something.
**[08:01] ---**
If my underclassman got a present
from me, she'd swoon and faint.
**[08:05] ---**
What does that mean?
**[08:07] ---**
This isn't some girl's manga,
**[08:09] ---**
and things like that
don't happen in girls' schools.
**[08:11] ---**
Hmph, wishful thinking.
**[08:13] ---**
You're only able to say that
**[08:14] ---**
because you don't know
what they call me at Tokiwadai.
**[08:17] ---**
Sissy!
**[08:19] ---**
I heard a vending machine alarm
and came running, and here you are!
**[08:22] ---**
Ugh, speak of the devil...
**[08:28] ---**
What?
**[08:31] ---**
What's the matter, Kuro--
**[08:33] ---**
Hey, what's wrong with you?!
**[08:35] ---**
It cannot be... No way... It is true...!
**[08:38] ---**
A rendezvous with a gentleman caller!
**[08:40] ---**
Now just a minute!
**[08:44] ---**
Pleased to meet you, gentleman caller.
**[08:46] ---**
Eh? What?!
**[08:48] ---**
I ride shotgun for Sissy,
and am her one-and-only partner,
**[08:51] ---**
Shirai Kuroko.
**[08:54] ---**
Since you appear to be
an acquaintance of Sissy's,
**[08:56] ---**
I will pay my respects,
out of social etiquette.
**[09:00] ---**
S-Sure.
**[09:01] ---**
I do have to say,
**[09:04] ---**
he is an undistinguished
gentleman caller, huh?
**[09:07] ---**
Is someone like him really with Sissy?
**[09:11] ---**
Oh, dear, if this is all it takes
for him to fall into a flutter,
**[09:15] ---**
there is a risk of him
having flirtatious tendencies.
**[09:19] ---**
Now, look, you...
**[09:22] ---**
Does this geekwad look
like my boyfriend?!
**[09:28] ---**
W-What?!
**[09:30] ---**
No, of course not.
I thought it sounded strange.
**[09:34] ---**
Come on! Get back down here!
**[09:37] ---**
Then again,
**[09:39] ---**
as much as I would like you to
wash your hands of this troglodyte
**[09:42] ---**
and allow me to escort you, Sissy,
**[09:46] ---**
as long as you have absolutely
no immunity to your gentleman caller,
**[09:49] ---**
I fear that later on, you may
be drawn to rather unsavory men.
**[09:52] ---**
On that point, I doubt I have anything to fear
**[09:55] ---**
from this completely harmless monkey.
**[09:57] ---**
On top of which, if you become
disillusioned with men in general,
**[10:01] ---**
seeing as how geeky he is,
I will be there to console you, Sissy...
**[10:07] ---**
Besides...
**[10:07] ---**
Hey, are you listening to me, Kuroko?!
**[10:11] ---**
You do seem to be happy again.
**[10:14] ---**
Hey, are you listening?!
**[10:16] ---**
There is nothing more I can do,
so I will take my leave,
**[10:20] ---**
but please take care not to
make any missteps, okay, Sissy?
**[10:23] ---**
Hey, what are you talking about?!
**[10:24] ---**
And, with that...
**[10:26] ---**
She disappeared!
**[10:28] ---**
Make an outburst like that
and then run away on me, will she?
**[10:32] ---**
So there really are people
who use the term "Sissy" in real life.
**[10:36] ---**
Leave it to Tokiwadai Middle School.
**[10:38] ---**
Her case is kind of a special one.
**[10:41] ---**
Oh, it is?
**[10:47] ---**
Oh, man! Seriously,
what did I even come here for?
**[10:50] ---**
Sissy?
**[10:52] ---**
Eh? She's back--huh?!
There's another Zapper?!
**[10:58] ---**
"If our appearances look the same,
**[11:01] ---**
it is only natural, since we
are identical on a genetic level,"
**[11:04] ---**
says Misaka in reply.
**[11:07] ---**
Huh? Genetic?
A-Ah, you're twins, huh?
**[11:13] ---**
Moments ago, I identified
a power identical to Misaka's,
**[11:16] ---**
so I came by to see,
**[11:18] ---**
but here at the site,
there was a broken vending machine,
**[11:21] ---**
and seeing you here with
that large number of drinks...
**[11:24] ---**
Sissy, don't tell me that you
were an accomplice in stealing from it.
**[11:27] ---**
Hey, your sister is the main culprit!
I'm an innocent bystander!
**[11:31] ---**
As a result of Misaka gauging
the vending machine with her ability,
**[11:35] ---**
the most recent fingerprints did belong to you.
**[11:39] ---**
You're kidding!
You can even tell that much?!
**[11:41] ---**
I'm kidding.
**[11:41] ---**
You're kidding?!
**[11:43] ---**
Just what are they
teaching this sister of yours?!
**[11:50] ---**
Why...?
**[11:53] ---**
Why are you...?!
**[11:59] ---**
Why are you wandering around here?
**[12:04] ---**
I am training.
**[12:07] ---**
Train--
**[12:11] ---**
Training? Did you join Judgment,
or something?
**[12:15] ---**
Judgment?
**[12:17] ---**
Oh, yeah, that's what this is.
**[12:19] ---**
Come here for a second.
**[12:20] ---**
But Misaka has a schedule to...
**[12:23] ---**
It's okay!
**[12:25] ---**
Come with me.
**[12:30] ---**
Maybe they're just...
a complex family.
**[12:35] ---**
Sissy, how far are we going to go?
**[12:39] ---**
Misaka's schedule is already
off by thirty-eight seconds...
**[12:46] ---**
The experiment...
**[12:48] ---**
The project was shut down,
wasn't it? So why...?
**[12:52] ---**
"By 'project,'
**[12:54] ---**
if you are referring
to Project Level 6 Shift,
**[12:57] ---**
then it is proceeding on schedule,"
**[12:59] ---**
replies Misaka.
**[13:01] ---**
No way! Even... now?
**[13:05] ---**
Yes. Experiment 10020 was just held.
**[13:12] ---**
Ten... thousand...?
**[13:15] ---**
What is she saying?
No... How...?
**[13:20] ---**
I thought they pulled everything out...
**[13:24] ---**
How are they...?
**[13:25] ---**
What is happening?
I don't understand.
**[13:29] ---**
I don't understand,
but they're being killed again.
**[13:34] ---**
No, that's not true!
**[13:37] ---**
I'm the one... who killed them.
**[13:41] ---**
She...
**[13:43] ---**
...will soon also...
**[13:47] ---**
Sissy?
**[13:54] ---**
Are you all--
**[14:00] ---**
Wow! How cute!
**[14:02] ---**
"Misaka found her," says Misaka,
trumpeting her achievement.
**[14:07] ---**
What do I do? What more...
**[14:11] ---**
...can I do?
**[14:13] ---**
Sissy...
**[14:15] ---**
Sissy, there's a kiddy-kitty.
**[14:16] ---**
Sissy...
**[14:22] ---**
Stop it!
**[14:27] ---**
Stop it...
**[14:29] ---**
Stop appearing before me...
sounding like that...
**[14:33] ---**
...and looking like that!
**[14:40] ---**
Okay.
**[14:41] ---**
Please excuse me.
**[15:05] ---**
This is the pits.
**[15:08] ---**
Th--
**[15:09] ---**
These are heavy. Still and all,
**[15:12] ---**
what was that with them back there?
**[15:17] ---**
Yowch...!
**[15:20] ---**
Man, just my luck.
**[15:22] ---**
"I can lend you a hand, if you need it,"
**[15:24] ---**
is what Misaka suggests with a sigh.
**[15:28] ---**
You...
**[15:29] ---**
Oh, you're her younger sister.
**[15:33] ---**
Huh? But didn't your sister
take you away somewhere earlier?
**[15:37] ---**
"Misaka just came from there,"
she says, pointing.
**[15:42] ---**
"Where should we
carry these drinks to,"
**[15:45] ---**
asks Misaka.
**[15:48] ---**
Oh, uh, that's okay.
I can carry them by myself.
**[15:55] ---**
#11 "Where should we carry these drinks to,"
**[15:56] ---**
Misaka prods.
**[16:06] ---**
Hello.
**[16:07] ---**
What's wrong? You look
awfully flushed, Doctor Amai.
**[16:15] ---**
Don't "Hello" me!
**[16:16] ---**
What is the meaning of
handing off to this many facilities?!
**[16:18] ---**
*We're* taking the lead on Level 6 Shift!
**[16:22] ---**
If you scatter it around like this,
the patent will never be...
**[16:25] ---**
Now, now, take it easy.
**[16:26] ---**
There will still be plenty of profit,
**[16:28] ---**
even after dividing it up this much.
**[16:30] ---**
How can you know that?!
**[16:33] ---**
Oh, I know.
**[16:34] ---**
Right now, what's most important
is completing the experiments.
**[16:41] ---**
There are 183 transferee
facilities in total.
**[16:45] ---**
If that breaks our mysterious
attacker's spirit, then good.
**[16:50] ---**
And even if the attacks keep going,
**[16:52] ---**
the more these facilities are destroyed,
**[16:55] ---**
the greater our share of
the profit becomes, doesn't it?
**[17:00] ---**
183...
**[17:05] ---**
How did it get to be so
many in this short a time?
**[17:10] ---**
This is a level far greater
than any single firm could manage.
**[17:16] ---**
I'm... an idiot.
**[17:19] ---**
I wonder why I didn't realize it.
**[17:22] ---**
Academy City is constantly
under satellite and camera surveillance.
**[17:27] ---**
There is no way that Academy City's
senior management is unaware
**[17:32] ---**
that these inhuman experiments
are repeatedly being done out of doors.
**[17:37] ---**
In other words,
**[17:38] ---**
Academy City as a whole...
**[17:41] ---**
...is my foe?
**[17:59] ---**
Ugh, that's nasty, all right.
**[18:06] ---**
Do you have a moment?
**[18:09] ---**
Huh?
**[18:12] ---**
Which laboratory's errand boy are you?
**[18:14] ---**
What makes you think that?
**[18:16] ---**
Anyone who comes
near me is always some guy,
**[18:18] ---**
trying to milk me
for some kind of analysis,
**[18:21] ---**
or some idiot, out to claim the
throne of Academy City's top dog.
**[18:27] ---**
Mm-hmm, I see.
**[18:30] ---**
And, in the sense that
both of them are full of crap,
**[18:33] ---**
there's not all that much difference.
**[18:36] ---**
Level 6 Shift?
**[18:39] ---**
Yeah. An experiment with
Tree Diagram's endorsement.
**[18:42] ---**
Ha! Not interested.
**[18:44] ---**
I'm the first-ranked in Academy City,
**[18:47] ---**
meaning that I'm already
at the top of the world.
**[18:50] ---**
Come who may, and do
what they will, nobody can beat me.
**[18:55] ---**
Even if I do become stronger
than I am now, what's that to me?
**[18:59] ---**
Yeah, you're right.
You are indeed the mightiest esper.
**[19:04] ---**
However, if you top out at "mightiest,"
**[19:06] ---**
then the circumstances that surround you
**[19:08] ---**
will always remain the same.
**[19:13] ---**
But then,
**[19:15] ---**
if you had an absolute power,
past that of "mightiest,"
**[19:19] ---**
it just might bring about
some changes in your life.
**[19:31] ---**
Past "mightiest," he says?
**[19:41] ---**
Thank you for coming.
**[19:55] ---**
Mass-production of clones,
in violation of international law, eh?
**[19:58] ---**
You guys have got screws loose
in your heads in just the right way.
**[20:02] ---**
Originally,
**[20:04] ---**
they were planned for use in another project,
**[20:07] ---**
but things happen, and they
ended up being diverted to us.
**[20:12] ---**
Looking at this,
**[20:14] ---**
would you still like to achieve Level 6?
**[20:22] ---**
Another 9970 to go, huh?
**[20:27] ---**
What a drag.
**[20:30] ---**
Sissy!
**[20:31] ---**
The bathroom is available.
**[20:34] ---**
Mm-hmm, thanks.
**[20:37] ---**
Sissy was in such
good spirits this afternoon...
**[20:43] ---**
D-D-Do not tell me something
happened with that troglodyte!
**[20:47] ---**
He shall pay for this!
**[20:53] ---**
What do I do?
**[20:55] ---**
Do I have any other moves left?
**[20:58] ---**
Find the mastermind and
put the screws to him? No,
**[21:02] ---**
if Academy City is directing
these experiments, that won't work.
**[21:06] ---**
The ones who imposed this
crazy project in the first place...
**[21:12] ---**
It's hopeless.
**[21:14] ---**
The reason they're keeping my
attacks under wraps is because
**[21:17] ---**
they want to avoid their
cloning experiments going public.
**[21:22] ---**
But *that*... If I were to destroy *that*...
**[21:27] ---**
Academy City would
have nowhere left to retreat.
**[21:31] ---**
If that happens, I can
never go back to my previous life.
**[21:43] ---**
They've already killed 10,000 of me,
**[21:47] ---**
and I'm still talking about
something so self-serving?
**[21:50] ---**
Say, Kuroko...
**[21:52] ---**
Y-Yes? What is it, Sissy?
**[21:55] ---**
Supposing--just supposing, now--
**[21:58] ---**
I did something that brought
calamity upon Academy City,
**[22:02] ---**
what would you do?
**[22:06] ---**
If you mean making off with drinks
from a busted vending machine,
**[22:10] ---**
I suggest not doing it again.
**[22:12] ---**
That thing took my ¥10,000 bill
when I was a freshman,
**[22:15] ---**
so it's fair game!
**[22:17] ---**
Something...
**[22:20] ---**
Something involving the foundation
that Academy City is built on.
**[22:26] ---**
I cannot say that I know why you
would ask a question such as that,
**[22:31] ---**
but if it is something that would
disrupt the safety of this city,
**[22:34] ---**
then it would not alter what
I would do, even against you, Sissy.
**[22:42] ---**
Hmm, then no matter
how much you call me "Sissy,"
**[22:46] ---**
that's the extent of our relationship, huh?
**[22:48] ---**
N-No, it is not!
**[22:50] ---**
Because I know that there
is not even a remote chance
**[22:52] ---**
that you would do any such thing, Sissy!
**[22:55] ---**
Gotcha!
**[22:57] ---**
I'm joking.
**[22:59] ---**
Sissy...!
**[23:03] ---**
Thank goodness.
**[23:11] ---**
Heh... Oh, Sissy...
**[23:19] ---**
If I get caught by Kuroko in
exchange for stopping the project,
**[23:24] ---**
that wouldn't be so bad.

**[00:24] ---**
I'm home. Oh?
**[00:27] ---**
Mikoto, what are you crying about?
**[00:34] ---**
Oh, my.
**[00:37] ---**
Mm-hmm, it's going to be all right.
**[00:39] ---**
Really?
**[00:40] ---**
If you're a good girl,
Mikoto, it's sure to be fixed.
**[00:43] ---**
For real? By any chance,
**[00:46] ---**
is Santa going to come make it better?
**[00:49] ---**
Santa? But it's the spring.
**[00:53] ---**
Mm-hmm, sure. The old fellow
is one of my friends, so I'll ask him.
**[00:58] ---**
He's your friend?!
**[01:00] ---**
You betcha.
**[01:02] ---**
So you just go off to sleep, now, okay?
**[01:05] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[01:28] ---**
There, finished.
**[01:30] ---**
Mama! Mama!
**[01:33] ---**
Mama!
**[01:34] ---**
Look! Look! See?
**[01:34] ---**
Whoa!
**[01:36] ---**
It's all better!
**[01:37] ---**
Mm-hmm, good for you, huh?
**[01:38] ---**
Whenever I would cry as a child,
**[01:40] ---**
Mama would take care
of everything while I slept.
**[01:46] ---**
If only the experiment,
and the events of that day,
**[01:49] ---**
could all just be a bad dream,
**[01:52] ---**
that would be gone...
once I opened my eyes...
**[02:01] ---**
Good morning to you, Sissy!
**[02:03] ---**
Now to enjoy this blissful feeling,
until I get slugged!
**[02:09] ---**
Mm-hmm, morning.
**[02:17] ---**
It's a nice day today, huh?
**[02:20] ---**
But reality isn't so forgiving.
**[02:22] ---**
Mama isn't here to
solve every little problem.
**[02:26] ---**
And it's not like praying
to God will work any miracles.
**[02:32] ---**
Nor are there any heroes that
will come dashing in.
**[02:37] ---**
Are you going out again today?
**[02:41] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[02:42] ---**
But my business
will be over after today.
**[02:45] ---**
Eh?
**[02:50] ---**
Today...
**[03:01] ---**
I have to put an end to things myself.
**[03:18] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[03:22] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[03:25] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings
we've built up together*
**[03:35] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*
**[03:42] ---**
*while I am unable to sense your pain*
**[03:48] ---**
*If the dreams you
committed to me that day*
**[03:52] ---**
*end up tearing me apart,*
**[03:55] ---**
*don't ever let go of that hope*
**[03:58] ---**
*more precious than anything else*
**[04:03] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[04:07] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[04:10] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[04:14] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[04:17] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[04:20] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[04:23] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[04:30] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[04:39] ---**
It's just about time.
**[04:45] ---**
Guys,
**[04:47] ---**
I hope you don't
give me any weird looks,
**[04:50] ---**
just because you were my friends.
**[04:57] ---**
"Tree Diagram's Final Word"
**[05:00] ---**
Tree Diagram...
**[05:02] ---**
The world's greatest supercomputer,
**[05:05] ---**
loaded aboard the satellite Orihime I
**[05:07] ---**
and launched by Academy City
under the pretense
**[05:10] ---**
that it would be analyzing climate data.
**[05:13] ---**
Once a month,
**[05:14] ---**
it projects the movement of all
the particles in earth's atmosphere,
**[05:18] ---**
calculates the weather
for the whole month at once,
**[05:21] ---**
and on all other days,
it is used for calculations
**[05:24] ---**
on all sorts of other
Academy City research.
**[05:26] ---**
"How to shift an absolute esper"
**[05:26] ---**
"to Level 6 through the use of Sisters."
Also...
**[05:29] ---**
...it is the absolute simulator
that directed the creation
**[05:33] ---**
and slaughter of 20,000 clones.
**[05:38] ---**
Hey, there!
**[05:40] ---**
Are you on your way
home from remedial lessons, too,
**[05:42] ---**
middle-school Zapper?
**[05:43] ---**
Oh, it's you. It's not "Zapper,"
it's Misaka Mikoto.
**[05:48] ---**
I'm tired today,
and I'd like to save my strength,
**[05:52] ---**
so I'll skip the part where I zap you.
**[05:54] ---**
Now *you're* the one
saying "zap," aren't you?
**[05:56] ---**
Never mind that,
is your sister not with you today?
**[06:00] ---**
Huh?
**[06:01] ---**
Since she helped carry
my drinks home yesterday,
**[06:03] ---**
I wanted to thank her, or whatever.
**[06:04] ---**
You mean, you saw her again?!
**[06:07] ---**
Huh? Well, yeah.
**[06:10] ---**
Why?
**[06:11] ---**
Why, you ask? It just happened,
it just happened. Oh!
**[06:15] ---**
It's going to be sunny again tomorrow!
**[06:20] ---**
I sure do hate those airships, you know?
**[06:23] ---**
Huh?
**[06:24] ---**
Why's that?
**[06:28] ---**
Because the machine sets the policy,
**[06:31] ---**
and the humans follow it.
**[06:34] ---**
Which is why...
**[06:36] ---**
...to make sure it doesn't
give any more crazy directives...
**[06:39] ---**
in addition to tampering
with the project...
**[06:41] ---**
Huh? Hey...
**[06:42] ---**
I'll destroy it!
**[06:49] ---**
What is the deal with her,
for crying out loud?
**[06:53] ---**
What's she so wound up about?
**[06:59] ---**
Eh?
**[07:00] ---**
Zapper?
**[07:02] ---**
Weren't you just over...
**[07:06] ---**
"Since there are no grounds for
you to call me 'Zapper,'
**[07:09] ---**
this cat must be designated 'Zapper,'"
presumes Misaka.
**[07:14] ---**
You're her sister, huh?
Without the goggles,
**[07:17] ---**
there really is no way to tell you apart.
**[07:21] ---**
By the way,
thanks for those drinks yesterday.
**[07:24] ---**
"Your words of gratitude were
not my objective,"
**[07:26] ---**
replies Misaka.
**[07:29] ---**
"The reason I took the goggles off
**[07:31] ---**
is that I was only following
previous encounters,
**[07:33] ---**
since cats characteristically
dislike bright things like lenses,"
**[07:37] ---**
explains Misaka.
**[07:40] ---**
Cats are like that, huh? So then,
why did you put them back on?
**[07:44] ---**
"Because it was no longer necessary
to have them off," explains Misaka.
**[07:49] ---**
Oh, then you already fed him.
**[07:53] ---**
No, I have not.
**[07:54] ---**
Huh? Then why did you put them back on?
**[08:01] ---**
Well?
**[08:03] ---**
"It is not really anything to speak of,"
**[08:06] ---**
says Misaka, refusing explanation.
**[08:09] ---**
Huh? Ah, what is it? By any chance,
**[08:13] ---**
did you not want to be seen like this?
**[08:16] ---**
It is not that, exactly.
**[08:19] ---**
Then, what is it?
**[08:23] ---**
Hey...
**[08:25] ---**
"I refuse to explain,"
declares Misaka once again.
**[08:31] ---**
Okay, fine. See you later.
**[08:34] ---**
"Just a moment," says Misaka,
prompting you to remain still.
**[08:38] ---**
Then tell me, what's going on?
**[08:40] ---**
"Listen to me. There is a cat here.
**[08:44] ---**
What do you think you are doing,
walking away thoughtlessly
**[08:47] ---**
from this hungry black cat," asks Misaka.
**[08:51] ---**
I'm telling you,
**[08:53] ---**
go ahead and give him
some of your snack cakes.
**[08:56] ---**
"It is impossible for Misaka
to give food to this cat,"
**[09:00] ---**
reasons Misaka.
**[09:02] ---**
"That's because Misaka has
one critical defect,"
**[09:05] ---**
she additionally explains.
**[09:07] ---**
Defect? Hey, don't put it like that.
**[09:10] ---**
"No, 'defect' is appropriate.
**[09:12] ---**
Misaka's body constantly emits
a weak magnetic field around it,"
**[09:16] ---**
explains Misaka.
**[09:18] ---**
It is not strong enough
for people to detect,
**[09:20] ---**
but it's another matter
for other animals.
**[09:24] ---**
In other words, Misaka's sister,
because of your magnetic field,
**[09:27] ---**
animals tend not to like you, is that it?
**[09:29] ---**
"It is not that they do not like me.
**[09:32] ---**
They find it hard to deal with me,"
Misaka says by way of correction.
**[09:37] ---**
Then, let me have them.
It's okay if I feed him--
**[09:41] ---**
"It is not that. Why do
you not think of taking him in,"
**[09:45] ---**
she inquires once again.
**[09:46] ---**
"Do you know how animals taken
in by the Health Department
**[09:50] ---**
are treated," asks Misaka,
readying an illustrative tale.
**[09:54] ---**
First, the animals are placed
inside a polycarbonate case.
**[09:59] ---**
Then, 20 ml of ASD-10 are--
**[10:01] ---**
Stop!
**[10:02] ---**
Stop rattling off such
disturbing talk like that!
**[10:05] ---**
If that's how you feel,
then *you* take him in.
**[10:08] ---**
"It is not possible for
Misaka to raise this cat,"
**[10:12] ---**
she answers honestly.
**[10:14] ---**
"In addition to the critical
defect mentioned earlier,
**[10:16] ---**
Misaka's living space is
somewhat different
**[10:19] ---**
from your living arrangements,"
says Misaka, stating her reason.
**[10:24] ---**
Yeah, but...
**[10:31] ---**
Okay, okay.
**[10:36] ---**
All right.
**[10:44] ---**
"Tree Diagram's Latest Word"
**[10:48] ---**
You've got pain running through
your chest, huh?
**[10:51] ---**
There's nothing especially
out of the ordinary here.
**[10:54] ---**
10031's turn is coming up tomorrow.
**[10:57] ---**
We can't have anything
impeding the experiment, can we?
**[11:00] ---**
You're right.
Shall we keep looking harder?
**[11:03] ---**
"No,
**[11:04] ---**
it is not something that
will affect the experiment,"
**[11:07] ---**
says Misaka,
offering her self-analysis.
**[11:10] ---**
Well, since I don't
actually see anything amiss,
**[11:12] ---**
if you say so, that's good enough.
**[11:17] ---**
Um...
**[11:19] ---**
"Supposing your own clone were
to appear before your eyes,
**[11:22] ---**
what kinds of feelings would
you experience," inquires Misaka.
**[11:27] ---**
A clone of myself?!
I'm afraid I wouldn't want that.
**[11:30] ---**
Oh, no? It would
be handy, wouldn't it?
**[11:32] ---**
Huh?! Please, just imagine
a living copy of yourself,
**[11:35] ---**
standing in front of you!
**[11:37] ---**
It would talk to you in your own voice!
**[11:40] ---**
Just thinking about
it gives me goose bumps!
**[11:43] ---**
Well, when you put it like that,
it would be creepy, huh?
**[11:49] ---**
Stop appearing before me...
**[11:51] ---**
sounding like that,
and looking like that!
**[11:56] ---**
To Sissy,
**[11:57] ---**
Misaka is someone
she wants nothing to do with.
**[12:03] ---**
We offer you our sincerest
thanks for choosing to ride
**[12:07] ---**
the Academy City Tour Bus today.
**[12:09] ---**
The bus has just
entered School District 23,
**[12:12] ---**
which is the space
exploration area of the city.
**[12:15] ---**
Within the space exploration area,
as the name suggests,
**[12:18] ---**
are gathered many facilities
specializing in the space industry,
**[12:21] ---**
including the Academy City
Space Exploration Center,
**[12:24] ---**
which has its own rocket launch site.
**[12:26] ---**
The building you see on your left side
**[12:28] ---**
is the data center for the
world's greatest supercomputer,
**[12:30] ---**
Tree Diagram, where data
exchange is carried out,
**[12:34] ---**
and every day, using that data,
weather forecasts and...
**[12:41] ---**
"No Admittance"
**[12:45] ---**
It's unusual,
getting a student at this hour.
**[12:49] ---**
Yes... There's something
I need to check out
**[12:52] ---**
for a summer vacation report I'm doing.
**[12:54] ---**
Aren't you the studious one?
**[12:56] ---**
Or so I'd like to say, but at this point,
**[12:58] ---**
aren't you rushing
this at the last minute?
**[13:02] ---**
The sun is already
getting close to setting,
**[13:04] ---**
so under no circumstances
should you go near the fence.
**[13:07] ---**
You'll be surrounded by security robots.
**[13:10] ---**
Right...
**[13:11] ---**
I'll be careful.
**[13:20] ---**
The data center--
**[13:21] ---**
the only contact point that carries out
**[13:24] ---**
communications with Tree Diagram.
**[13:26] ---**
From there, I'll hack in,
and make it give a false prediction.
**[13:30] ---**
Yeah, like...
**[13:32] ---**
"Have observed a critical
error in Project Level 6 Shift,
**[13:35] ---**
which is currently in progress.
**[13:37] ---**
The error arose as a result of
Accelerator and Railgun
**[13:41] ---**
engaging in battle,
and is irreparable. Hence,
**[13:45] ---**
Accelerator's transition to
level 6 is impossible."
**[13:49] ---**
The researchers, who have put all
their eggs in Tree Diagram's basket,
**[13:53] ---**
will be thrown into a panic.
**[13:57] ---**
Of course, if they seek a recalculation,
**[14:00] ---**
they will realize that it was a mistake.
**[14:04] ---**
Ultimately, they'll catch
on to the trick sooner or later.
**[14:07] ---**
However,
**[14:08] ---**
before they do,
**[14:10] ---**
I'll drive the project
itself into bankruptcy!
**[14:10] ---**
"#12 Tree Diagram"
**[14:20] ---**
Geez, all you had to do
was give it up in the first place.
**[14:23] ---**
Th-That's...
**[14:24] ---**
Shut your mouth!
**[14:27] ---**
Tch, that's all you've got?
**[14:35] ---**
Good grief, you sure are unlucky, too, huh?
**[14:40] ---**
"Why is he still meowing," inquires Misaka.
**[14:44] ---**
He's angry because he's still hungry.
**[14:46] ---**
Angry?
**[14:48] ---**
I told you to try to feed him, too.
**[14:50] ---**
As I said, it is not
possible for me to feed him--
**[14:53] ---**
Here, just do it.
**[15:06] ---**
You see? He's eating, all right.
**[15:13] ---**
Is he upset?
**[15:15] ---**
No, he seems delighted, doesn't he?
**[15:18] ---**
Delighted?
**[15:25] ---**
Oh yeah, you have to name him.
**[15:28] ---**
Name? Is it not Zapper?
**[15:31] ---**
No, it's not. He's your cat, right?
**[15:34] ---**
You have to give him
whatever name you like.
**[15:37] ---**
Misaka's...
**[15:41] ---**
"Dog."
**[15:41] ---**
Huh?
**[15:42] ---**
The black cat is "Dog,"
as named by Misaka.
**[15:46] ---**
He is a cat, and yet, "Dog."
**[15:49] ---**
Now, listen, can't you make it
something more serious?
**[15:53] ---**
Something a little more dignified?
**[15:55] ---**
"Okay, 'Tokugawa Ieyasu,'"
reconsiders Misaka.
**[15:59] ---**
That's *too* dignified.
**[16:00] ---**
Then, "Schrödinger."
**[16:02] ---**
Quit messing around.
**[16:03] ---**
I know it's just an analogy,
but any professor
**[16:06] ---**
that would gleefully talk
about sticking a cat inside a box
**[16:08] ---**
that shoots out poison gas
is not one who likes cats, right?
**[16:13] ---**
Then, I shall put it on hold for now.
**[16:16] ---**
On hold.
**[16:19] ---**
You know, if this pattern holds,
**[16:21] ---**
"On Hold" is going to
end up being his name.
**[16:26] ---**
"By the way,
**[16:27] ---**
where are you going?
This route is different
**[16:30] ---**
from the one I took yesterday
carrying your drinks,"
**[16:33] ---**
Misaka points out.
**[16:35] ---**
A little detour.
There's a book that I want to get.
**[16:38] ---**
"Is it the shopping
district you're going to,"
**[16:41] ---**
asks Misaka. Geographically speaking,
**[16:45] ---**
turning right at the last
intersection is a shorter route.
**[16:48] ---**
Nope, not there;
a used book store past there.
**[16:52] ---**
There aren't any newer or
older ways to raise a cat, right?
**[16:56] ---**
"Do you want a book
on how to take care of cats,"
**[16:59] ---**
Misaka asks, seeking confirmation.
**[17:02] ---**
I'd say more knowledge than a book.
**[17:04] ---**
If it were just me, I'd be fine,
**[17:05] ---**
but you were at my place, right?
**[17:07] ---**
You saw the nun's habit and the
priestess's robes, right? It's *them*.
**[17:11] ---**
"In other words, you mean you're
going to foist caring for the cat
**[17:14] ---**
onto someone else," inquires Misaka.
**[17:18] ---**
No, that's not what I'm saying.
**[17:22] ---**
Huh? Are you angry?
**[17:24] ---**
"No, I am not angry.
**[17:25] ---**
I will just have you charged
with destruction of property
**[17:29] ---**
if you treat the cat's
life with a lack of care,"
**[17:31] ---**
says Misaka as a warning.
**[17:33] ---**
I knew it, you *are* angry.
**[17:35] ---**
I am not angry.
**[17:41] ---**
Well, I'm going on in. Wait here for me.
**[17:44] ---**
"Understood," acknowledges Misaka.
**[17:47] ---**
I know there's a hidden meaning there.
**[17:50] ---**
Oh, come to think of it,
**[17:51] ---**
is it okay for me to be going
into the store carrying a cat?
**[17:55] ---**
I do not mean to sound
like I'm endlessly lecturing,
**[17:58] ---**
but please refrain from giving him to me--
**[18:00] ---**
Take this! Kitty Bomb!
**[18:05] ---**
You say he doesn't like
you because of your body?
**[18:07] ---**
Then getting over that very barrier
**[18:09] ---**
is what will bring
about true friendship, right?
**[18:14] ---**
"My goodness, what nerve he has,
**[18:17] ---**
thinking it is okay to just toss a kitten,"
**[18:20] ---**
Misaka whispers to herself.
**[18:25] ---**
Are you angry?
**[18:29] ---**
Or are you... delighted?
**[18:41] ---**
We were out of line...
**[18:42] ---**
So please, no more--
**[18:46] ---**
Hey, now, you were the ones who started it,
**[18:49] ---**
so do you think just
apologizing will get you off?
**[18:53] ---**
It hurts! It hurts! It hurts!
**[18:56] ---**
Why don't you take--
**[19:02] ---**
Geez, and there are wind-up dolls
that will bear their responsibilities
**[19:06] ---**
without a single whimper, too.
**[19:09] ---**
S-Stay back!
**[19:11] ---**
At least try to help me work up
my appetite for supper, will you?
**[19:19] ---**
Aww, come to think of it,
it's just about time for that, huh?
**[19:25] ---**
I guess you get to live.
**[19:35] ---**
"Thank you for waiting.
**[19:38] ---**
Your next partner for the
experiment is me, Misaka 10031,"
**[19:43] ---**
reports Misaka.
**[19:44] ---**
Huh? Tch, oh.
**[19:46] ---**
See, this is why you
guys are so confusing.
**[19:51] ---**
Should I apologize for
your having been confused?
**[19:55] ---**
I don't need to be apologized
to from someone who's about to die.
**[20:02] ---**
Confirmed.
**[20:04] ---**
10031 and 10032
are about to embark upon
**[20:08] ---**
the predetermined action.
**[20:24] ---**
This is strange.
There isn't a hint of anyone here.
**[20:27] ---**
If the sensors weren't working,
**[20:30] ---**
then the cameras probably aren't, either.
**[20:37] ---**
This is the all-important facility,
**[20:39] ---**
which can communicate
with Academy City's brain.
**[20:46] ---**
And yet,
**[20:47] ---**
they only put up a
thin facade of security,
**[20:49] ---**
while I'm moving through
inside unimpeded, aren't I?
**[20:52] ---**
Have they fled? Or is this a trap?
**[20:55] ---**
Whatever the case,
there should be more to it than this.
**[20:59] ---**
There's no benefit for them
to let me set foot in here, too.
**[21:09] ---**
Are they blowing me off,
saying that hacking them is impossible?
**[21:16] ---**
Even the control room is empty?
**[21:20] ---**
The facility's functions are operating.
**[21:23] ---**
But...
**[21:26] ---**
This didn't just happen.
There's no question that this facility
**[21:30] ---**
has been abandoned for some time.
**[21:33] ---**
But why?
**[21:35] ---**
I can't help but wonder,
now that I'm here.
**[21:38] ---**
In any case, I'll do what
I came here for, and... Is this it?
**[21:42] ---**
"Number of transmissions: 0"
**[21:44] ---**
What does that mean?
**[21:46] ---**
Number of transmissions today: 0?
**[21:48] ---**
But there should
be several hundred requests
**[21:50] ---**
to Tree Diagram each day.
**[21:54] ---**
No, the requests are here.
**[21:56] ---**
They haven't been processed at all.
**[21:58] ---**
Nor were yesterday's,
or those before that, all the way back.
**[22:06] ---**
"Report to the Board of Governors"
**[22:08] ---**
Reports?
**[22:10] ---**
23rd Report... 24th Report...
**[22:14] ---**
"Final Report to the Board of Governors"
**[22:16] ---**
What is this?
**[22:18] ---**
"Final report regarding the
disappearance of Tree Diagram."
**[22:23] ---**
"On June 28th, at 00:20,
**[22:26] ---**
Tree Diagram disappeared
from its satellite track.
**[22:30] ---**
That same day, at 01:15,
Search Party 1 was dispatched.
**[22:34] ---**
That same day, at 03:40, one section
of its remnants recovered.
**[22:40] ---**
Analysis results indicate
that Tree Diagram was..."
**[22:46] ---**
Tree Diagram...
**[22:49] ---**
...does not exist...?
**[22:52] ---**
Then...
**[22:53] ---**
Let's see...
**[22:55] ---**
...cats... cats... cats...
**[23:09] ---**
*After counting clouds until I grew
bored of it, they drifted far away again*
**[23:16] ---**
*I went after them, and found
my dreams for tomorrow*
**[23:21] ---**
*Assured that it's now or never,
your feelings get through to me*
**[23:28] ---**
*and someday, I'm sure,
I'll offer mine, too*
**[23:34] ---**
*Like the clouds, gently, gently,*
**[23:39] ---**
*moving forever, forever forward*
**[23:47] ---**
"Next episode preview"
**[23:48] ---**
Tree Diagram doesn't exist.
**[23:48] ---**
"#13 Accelerator"
**[23:50] ---**
The experiments continue.
**[23:51] ---**
Isn't there any way left to save them?
**[23:53] ---**
"Misaka is going to the
next experiment," says Misaka--
**[23:56] ---**
Stop! Please!

Your next partner for the
experiment is me, Misaka 10031,"
**[00:29] ---**
reports Misaka.
**[00:30] ---**
Huh? Tch, oh. See, this is
why you guys are so confusing.
**[00:38] ---**
Confirmed. 10031 and 10032
are about to embark upon
**[00:41] ---**
the predetermined action.
**[00:54] ---**
It is time.
**[00:56] ---**
We will now commence
trial number 10031.
**[01:16] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[01:19] ---**

**[01:23] ---**

**[02:21] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared

**[02:27] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[02:44] ---**
Tree Diagram has been destroyed?
**[02:47] ---**
How? Was it shot down by a
hostile force?
**[02:51] ---**
Or maybe it was an accident with
some space debris. Wait...
**[02:56] ---**
But that's not the issue, is it?
**[02:59] ---**
The issue is that the last means I had
**[03:02] ---**
of turning the project on
its ear has been lost. And also,
**[03:07] ---**
the fact that the experiments are
proceeding according to plan,
**[03:11] ---**
even without Tree Diagram.
**[03:15] ---**
Oh, right...
**[03:18] ---**
One of the facilities
on this block was among
**[03:21] ---**
the project's transferee offices
that I checked out yesterday.
**[03:34] ---**
Thanks for waiting.
**[03:38] ---**
Huh?
**[03:41] ---**
Oh, On Hold...
**[03:44] ---**
Where did she go?
**[03:58] ---**
Entry code not recognized.
Entry to outsiders is not permitted.
**[04:03] ---**
Please exit the premises at once--
**[04:14] ---**
Hey! Misaka's sister?
**[04:20] ---**
Well, sure, there's no reason
why she'd be back here.
**[04:24] ---**
W-What is this?
**[04:40] ---**
What was that? An explosion?
**[04:42] ---**
No, it wasn't!
**[04:43] ---**
O-Over there!
**[04:46] ---**
It's her!
**[04:52] ---**
H-Hey, wait up!
**[05:08] ---**
Yo, are you done yet?
Can I kill you now?
**[05:20] ---**
You're getting pretty crazy,
here in the middle of the city.
**[05:25] ---**
Aren't you?
**[05:38] ---**
What are you running
away like that for?
**[05:41] ---**
Beguilingly shaking
your ass like that.
**[05:44] ---**
By any chance,
is that an invitation?
**[05:55] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:58] ---**
It's not as though this is over yet.
**[06:03] ---**
I can't give up.
**[06:09] ---**
I can just bring
everything down.
**[06:15] ---**
All there is now...
**[06:18] ---**
All that will take it over later...
**[06:23] ---**
All of it!
**[06:27] ---**
Something sure sounded awful,
**[06:30] ---**
but what happened here?
**[06:35] ---**
She's not here, huh?
**[06:39] ---**
There, there, let's head back--
**[06:43] ---**
Is that... hers?
**[07:09] ---**
Want me to ask you a riddle,
to alleviate the boredom?
**[07:14] ---**
Question: What is it that I,
Accelerator, am doing here?
**[07:31] ---**
Reflec... tion...?
**[07:34] ---**
Oh, too bad!
**[07:36] ---**
Well, normally, I do have it
set to reflect, though.
**[07:41] ---**
But that's not the principle I use.
**[07:48] ---**
The correct answer
is vector transformation.
**[07:58] ---**
Kinetic energy...
**[08:01] ---**
...the amount of heat...
**[08:03] ---**
...as well as...
**[08:08] ---**
...electrical charge...
**[08:10] ---**
All anything that has direction
has to do is touch my skin,
**[08:13] ---**
and I can transform it.
**[08:19] ---**
Now then...
**[08:29] ---**
I can bring it down.
**[08:32] ---**
All of it. The equipment,
the funding,
**[08:36] ---**
the greed,
**[08:37] ---**
the ambition--
**[08:39] ---**
until I reach the bottom,
and there's no trace of it left.
**[08:49] ---**
And by doing so, someday...
**[08:52] ---**
Someday?
**[08:55] ---**
Is such an opportune day
really going to come along?
**[08:58] ---**
And before it does, how
many more Sisters have to die?
**[09:06] ---**
Shut up!
**[09:07] ---**
What else do you want me to do?!
**[09:09] ---**
Driving... the project...
to a halt... right this minute...?
**[09:13] ---**
Tell me, how am I supposed to do that?!
**[09:42] ---**
Now then,
**[09:43] ---**
on to the matter of
the consolation match...
**[09:54] ---**
If I were to reverse
the flow of their blood,
**[09:57] ---**
what do you suppose
would happen to a person's body?
**[10:05] ---**
N-No...
**[10:07] ---**
No... No!
**[10:09] ---**
S-Stop--
**[10:32] ---**
"#13 Accelerator"
**[11:04] ---**
Yo!
**[11:06] ---**
You would be my counterpart
for the experiment, right?
**[11:12] ---**
"Yes.
**[11:13] ---**
It is a pleasure to meet you,"
replies Misaka.
**[11:18] ---**
This is my first time
going up against a Level 5, too.
**[11:23] ---**
I'm looking forward to-- Huh?
**[11:26] ---**
A gun?
**[11:28] ---**
"All checks complete,"
**[11:29] ---**
Misaka says, showing off
her enthusiasm for her first trial.
**[11:35] ---**
By the way, you have been
given permission to use a firearm.
**[11:40] ---**
Are you sure you won't use one?
**[11:45] ---**
All right, please
commence the first trial.
**[11:48] ---**
"All right, then,
victory favors the swift,"
**[11:52] ---**
says Misaka, commencing her attack.
**[11:59] ---**
"The bullets are being deflected?"
**[12:01] ---**
says Misaka, stepping back and analyzing--
**[12:05] ---**
Are you screwing with me?
**[12:14] ---**
Hey...
**[12:15] ---**
What's going on here?
**[12:18] ---**
Is that really a Level 5 clone?
**[12:23] ---**
Please disregard the specification
differences from the Original.
**[12:27] ---**
However, the clones share a
common memory over their network.
**[12:31] ---**
Over the course of 20,000 battles,
they will learn and develop.
**[12:36] ---**
At the end, even you
may face an uphill battle.
**[12:40] ---**
In other words,
**[12:42] ---**
I've got to go against
these guppies the whole time?
**[12:46] ---**
Tch, that's a buzzkill.
That's all for this time, right?
**[12:52] ---**
Yeah. However,
**[12:54] ---**
the first trial is not over yet.
**[12:58] ---**
Not until you dispatch
the test subject behind you.
**[13:04] ---**
It is by dispatching
20,000 armed clones
**[13:07] ---**
that this experiment will be fulfilled.
**[13:09] ---**
The target's actions
have not yet been terminated.
**[13:13] ---**
Please continue the combat.
**[13:17] ---**
"Ack... knowledged...
**[13:20] ---**
Continuing the experiment..."
**[13:22] ---**
says Misaka, following orders.
**[13:28] ---**
Dispatch? Terminate actions?
**[13:32] ---**
You mean...
**[13:56] ---**
"So dark...
**[13:59] ---**
So deep...
**[14:02] ---**
Like sinking to the bottom
of a body of water...
**[14:07] ---**
Is this what 'death' is..."
**[14:13] ---**
asks Misaka...
**[14:24] ---**
That's what you're talking about?
**[14:26] ---**
Mm-hmm, good work.
This concludes the first trial.
**[14:32] ---**
It may be dull at the start,
but they'll get better before long,
**[14:34] ---**
so please keep hammering away at them.
**[14:37] ---**
There's no need to hold back.
**[14:38] ---**
Your opponents are
nothing but wind-up dolls,
**[14:42] ---**
synthesized from chemicals and protein.
**[14:55] ---**
Well, then...
**[14:57] ---**
...guess I'll go buy some supper.
**[15:12] ---**
M-Misaka...?
**[15:30] ---**
What's this?
**[15:31] ---**
Something about an incident.
**[15:33] ---**
Somebody died, or something.
**[15:35] ---**
What? A murder?
**[15:38] ---**
Hey, is it still farther in?
**[15:41] ---**
It's just up here!
**[15:52] ---**
What's wrong?
**[15:53] ---**
Oh, er, the, uh...
**[15:56] ---**
...b-body is supposed to be right here.
**[15:59] ---**
Huh?
**[16:04] ---**
Hey, are you sure you saw it?
**[16:07] ---**
How the...?
**[16:08] ---**
You're kidding, right?
Am I dreaming?
**[16:12] ---**
No, I couldn't be.
**[16:13] ---**
Yes, sir. Is that right? Copy that.
**[16:17] ---**
Hey!
**[16:19] ---**
They checked all of the
security cameras in the area,
**[16:22] ---**
but they say there isn't a hint
of any suspicious activity.
**[16:25] ---**
That can't be! I mean, I was just...
**[16:28] ---**
We're going to write this up
as eyewitness error this time,
**[16:32] ---**
but next time, we're going
to have to contact your school.
**[16:36] ---**
Man, talk about your outrageous pranks...
**[16:40] ---**
What's... going on?
**[16:46] ---**
What's going on here, damn it?!
**[16:57] ---**
M-Misaka?
**[17:00] ---**
"I'm awfully sorry.
**[17:02] ---**
After I finished the op, I was
planning to come back to you,"
**[17:05] ---**
apologizes Misaka upfront.
**[17:09] ---**
Hold on a second!
**[17:11] ---**
You're Misaka's
younger sister, aren't you?
**[17:18] ---**
Damn, man, what was all that?
**[17:21] ---**
Sorry. Up until right now,
I thought that you might be dead.
**[17:27] ---**
Thank goodness.
**[17:28] ---**
"Misaka definitely did die,"
reports Misaka.
**[17:35] ---**
Huh?
**[17:37] ---**
What is that...
**[17:40] ---**
...you're holding?
**[17:42] ---**
"I must verify your
password, just to be sure,"
**[17:45] ---**
says Misaka, carrying out her word.
**[17:48] ---**
"ZXC741ASD852QWE963,"
**[17:56] ---**
says Misaka, testing you.
**[17:59] ---**
Uh, what?
**[18:01] ---**
"Since you are unable to
decode this password at this time,
**[18:04] ---**
you do not appear to
be part of the experiment,"
**[18:07] ---**
confirms Misaka.
**[18:09] ---**
Look, you!
**[18:10] ---**
What have you
been going on about?!
**[18:12] ---**
What do you have
in that sleeping bag?!
**[18:14] ---**
"Sisters,"
**[18:16] ---**
answers Misaka.
**[18:21] ---**
"I apologize for leaving..."
**[18:24] ---**
"...the black cat behind,"
**[18:26] ---**
expresses Misaka. "But..."
**[18:28] ---**
"I felt uncomfortable involving
an animal in a pointless battle,"
**[18:32] ---**
justifies Misaka.
**[18:35] ---**
"Apparently, I caused you some
undue concern over this experiment,"
**[18:39] ---**
apologizes Misaka.
**[18:42] ---**
But you needn't have worried.
**[18:44] ---**
All of the Misakas here are Misaka.
**[18:47] ---**
What is this?
**[18:50] ---**
"The Misaka that you
have had contact with up to now
**[18:53] ---**
is serial number 10032,
**[18:56] ---**
which is to say, this Misaka.
**[19:00] ---**
And the one who died
today is serial number 10031,
**[19:05] ---**
the one that you and Sissy
happened to run into yesterday,"
**[19:09] ---**
explains Misaka.
**[19:12] ---**
"The Misakas all utilize
the ability to control electricity..."
**[19:15] ---**
"...and our brainwaves
are all linked to each other,"
**[19:17] ---**
"...so we share a common memory,"
**[19:20] ---**
Misaka further adds.
**[19:23] ---**
Who are you?!
**[19:26] ---**
"Cellular clones created as
mass-produced military models
**[19:30] ---**
of Sissy Misaka Mikoto, one of
only seven Level 5s in Academy City,
**[19:38] ---**
the Sisters," answers Misaka.
**[19:42] ---**
Misaka's... clones?
So, what are you doing, then?
**[19:49] ---**
"Just an experiment," answers Misaka.
**[19:53] ---**
"The details are classified top-secret..."
**[19:56] ---**
"...so I cannot explain further..."
**[19:58] ---**
"...but this is not a serious incident,"
explains Misaka.
**[20:02] ---**
"I would like to apologize again..."
**[20:05] ---**
"...for involving
you in this experiment,"
**[20:07] ---**
says Misaka, with bowed head.
**[20:14] ---**
Now then, if you
would look after the cat...
**[20:34] ---**
It is just an experiment.
**[20:36] ---**
Cellular clones created as
mass-produced military models
**[20:40] ---**
of Sissy Misaka Mikoto.
**[20:44] ---**
Experiment? Military?
**[20:48] ---**
Does she...
**[20:50] ---**
Does Misaka... know about this?
**[21:01] ---**
Project Level 6 Shift...
By killing Railgun 128 times...
**[21:09] ---**
...progress to Level 6...
**[21:16] ---**
That's it.
**[21:21] ---**
I can do *that*.
**[21:38] ---**
Next stop is School District 7,
Tokiwadai Middle School Dorms.
**[21:42] ---**
Next stop is School District 7, Tokiwadai...
**[22:00] ---**
Room 208.
**[22:05] ---**
What are you going
to do once you see her?
**[22:08] ---**
Are you going to ask her about this
**[22:10] ---**
ghoulish experiment,
that thinks nothing of killing someone?
**[22:29] ---**
*While looking up
into an unfamiliar sky,*
**[22:35] ---**
*always, always walking with you*
**[22:41] ---**
*I was searching for
the future I thought I saw,*
**[22:47] ---**
*so unlike the one up until a day ago*
**[22:53] ---**
*When you touched my heart,
convinced by my blurred vision,*
**[23:01] ---**
*that I was wandering*
**[23:05] ---**
*everything started changing*
**[23:09] ---**
*After counting clouds until I grew
bored of it, they drifted far away again*
**[23:15] ---**
*I went after them, and found
my dreams for tomorrow*
**[23:21] ---**
*Assured that it's now or never,
your feelings get through to me*
**[23:27] ---**
*and someday, I'm sure,
I'll offer mine, too*
**[23:33] ---**
*Like the clouds, gently, gently,*
**[23:39] ---**
*moving forever, forever forward*
**[23:47] ---**

It was no use. Any of it.
This is all my fault.

If that's so,
**[23:55] ---**
there's one last thing I can do to save them.

**[00:20] ---**
Sissy...
**[00:21] ---**
You are not coming
back again tonight, are you?
**[00:25] ---**
And you said your business
would be finished today, too.
**[00:34] ---**
There really was something
behind the look on her face...
**[00:38] ---**
I cannot just let this go.
If there is anything that I can do,
**[00:43] ---**
then regardless of
what Sissy might say...
**[00:47] ---**
No--I made up my mind, did I not?
That I would wait for her?
**[00:59] ---**
Sissy...
**[01:02] ---**
What is the matter with you?
**[01:08] ---**
N-No, I cannot! If I wrap
myself up in Sissy's scent,
**[01:11] ---**
I will pass out before I know it!
**[01:14] ---**
This is not right! I need to
know right now what I should do!
**[01:24] ---**
Y-Yes?!
**[01:26] ---**
A visitor to the dorms?
That is unusual.
**[01:30] ---**
Yes?
**[01:31] ---**
Uh, um...
**[01:33] ---**
It's Kamijo. Is that you, Misaka?
**[01:49] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[01:52] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[01:56] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings
we've built up together*
**[02:06] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*
**[02:12] ---**
*while I am unable to sense your pain*
**[02:19] ---**
*If the dreams you
committed to me that day*
**[02:22] ---**
*end up tearing me apart,*
**[02:26] ---**
*don't ever let go of that hope*
**[02:29] ---**
*more precious than anything else*
**[02:34] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[02:37] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[02:41] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[02:45] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[02:47] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[02:51] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[02:54] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[03:00] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[03:08] ---**
Um, hello?
**[03:10] ---**
Is this thing getting through?
**[03:12] ---**
That face...
**[03:14] ---**
Is he the troglodyte that was
putting the moves on Sissy earlier?
**[03:18] ---**
Are you telling me that he has
been taken in by Sissy's beauty
**[03:20] ---**
and has followed her back here?
**[03:22] ---**
What a come-as-you-please
hominid he must be,
**[03:25] ---**
when Sissy is probably
in such a terrible situation!
**[03:28] ---**
I only let him slide by before
**[03:31] ---**
so that Sissy could develop
an immunity on her own,
**[03:33] ---**
but ordinarily, I would get
rid of him in the blink of an eye.
**[03:37] ---**
Just a moment!
**[03:39] ---**
There is the possibility that he
might know something about Sissy!
**[03:43] ---**
208... right?
**[03:46] ---**
Yow! Cut that out!
**[03:48] ---**
But even if I learn something,
as long as I have resolved to wait...
**[03:51] ---**
Stop acting up! Take it easy!
**[03:52] ---**
Still...
**[03:53] ---**
For Pete's sake...
**[03:53] ---**
K-Kamijo, is it?
**[03:56] ---**
Oh, whoops, I must have
the wrong room number, all right.
**[03:59] ---**
No, no, it is all right.
You needed to see Sissy, right?
**[04:03] ---**
I share the room with Sissy.
**[04:07] ---**
I take it then that Misaka
has not come home yet?
**[04:09] ---**
Correct. However,
I am expecting her at any time.
**[04:13] ---**
If you need to see her,
**[04:15] ---**
I recommend that you
come in and wait for her.
**[04:17] ---**
Oh, are you sure?
**[04:19] ---**
I would not suggest missing her. Besides,
**[04:22] ---**
when curfew hits,
security will also be activated,
**[04:25] ---**
so you will not be
able to wait out there.
**[04:29] ---**
Come in.
**[04:30] ---**
It is not locked,
so please, open it yourself.
**[04:36] ---**
Um, er...
**[04:39] ---**
Hurry up and come in,
then close the door, please.
**[04:42] ---**
R-Right.
**[04:44] ---**
I apologize. This room
is primarily for sleeping in,
**[04:48] ---**
so it does not offer much in
the way of entertaining guests.
**[04:52] ---**
If you are going to wait for Sissy,
**[04:54] ---**
please sit on the adjoining bed.
**[04:56] ---**
Er, no, I couldn't do that.
Not without the person's permission.
**[05:00] ---**
You need not worry.
**[05:02] ---**
That is my bed.
**[05:04] ---**
Huh? What are you doing,
sprawling out on someone else's bed?
**[05:09] ---**
What are you, a deviant?
**[05:10] ---**
I won't have you calling me a deviant.
**[05:13] ---**
People have things that
they won't tell anyone else,
**[05:15] ---**
but in their minds,
they find to be perfectly okay.
**[05:20] ---**
Like how you will put your
mouth on the girl you like's flute,
**[05:23] ---**
or steal her bicycle seat.
**[05:25] ---**
No I don't!
**[05:26] ---**
Shh!
**[05:27] ---**
Best that you not
raise your voice too loudly.
**[05:30] ---**
It will spell big trouble if
anyone outside hears you.
**[05:33] ---**
Okay, okay.
**[05:37] ---**
Come to think of it,
**[05:38] ---**
since you always call her "Sissy,"
**[05:39] ---**
I figured she was
your upperclassman,
**[05:42] ---**
but if you're sharing a room,
you must be classmates.
**[05:44] ---**
No, I really am
Sissy's underclassman.
**[05:48] ---**
I just sort of had the
previous roommate leave.
**[05:52] ---**
And it was absolutely lawful.
**[05:55] ---**
Yikes.
**[05:55] ---**
So then? What business
with Sissy has brought you here?
**[06:03] ---**
Just a moment!
**[06:05] ---**
On second thought, you need not tell me.
**[06:08] ---**
Even after you tell me, I have
already resolved not to pursue it.
**[06:12] ---**
Uh-huh...
**[06:17] ---**
Th-This is bad! It sounds like a patrol!
**[06:21] ---**
If the head resident
finds out you are here,
**[06:23] ---**
things will take an ugly turn!
**[06:25] ---**
Head resident?
**[06:26] ---**
A dangerous, intrusive person that
checks our rooms unannounced!
**[06:30] ---**
Forgive me, but I will
have to force you to leave.
**[06:35] ---**
Huh? Why does my power not work on you?
**[06:39] ---**
Well, you see...
**[06:41] ---**
Oh, what a bother!
Please hide under the bed here!
**[06:44] ---**
I can't! There's not enough room!
**[06:46] ---**
Then do it anyway!
**[06:52] ---**
I thought I heard some sounds.
**[06:54] ---**
I know. I heard them, too.
Could it be next door?
**[06:58] ---**
Is Misaka asleep?
**[06:59] ---**
Yes, she is. She said she has
not been sleeping overnight recently,
**[07:03] ---**
and has gone to sleep already,
**[07:05] ---**
so I would certainly like
for things to be quiet, as well.
**[07:09] ---**
I shall come and offer my
complaint, as well.
**[07:19] ---**
The pathological analysis lab...
**[07:21] ---**
The 7th Pharmaceutical Research Center...
**[07:24] ---**
"Radio Noise"...
"How to Shift Accelerator to Level 6"...
**[07:30] ---**
Level 6? What's that?
**[07:34] ---**
Not in there, either.
**[07:36] ---**
That is odd, huh?
Perhaps the next floor up?
**[07:41] ---**
I do not have time for this.
**[07:44] ---**
Out of Academy City's seven Level 5s,
**[07:48] ---**
only Accelerator is
capable of reaching Level 6.
**[07:52] ---**
As a result of using
Tree Diagram calculations,
**[07:55] ---**
128 different types of
battlefields will be prepared,
**[07:58] ---**
and by killing Railgun 128 times,
**[08:01] ---**
Level 6 can be attained...
**[08:04] ---**
Railgun? That's Zapper, right?
**[08:07] ---**
Naturally, 128 Railguns
cannot be prepared.
**[08:12] ---**
As such, mass production
Sisters were developed.
**[08:15] ---**
Accelerator, upon killing
20,000 Sisters, will thereby achieve...
**[08:21] ---**
Level 6...?
**[08:23] ---**
"...the Sisters," answers Misaka.
**[08:27] ---**
10030, August 20th, 02:23;
**[08:32] ---**
10031, August 21st...
**[08:37] ---**
And the one who died today is
serial number 10031...
**[08:43] ---**
10032, August 21st, 20:30...
**[08:50] ---**
Good grief...
**[08:55] ---**
That big monkey!
**[08:57] ---**
This is not a jungle!
**[09:02] ---**
And it turns out, I did not
get to ask him anything.
**[09:10] ---**
She... knew about this project...
**[09:13] ---**
Why are you...!?
**[09:16] ---**
She knows about the
existence of her own clones...
**[09:18] ---**
I sure do hate those airships, you know?
**[09:21] ---**
Huh? Why's that?
**[09:23] ---**
Because the machine sets the policy,
**[09:26] ---**
and the humans follow it.
**[09:28] ---**
The experiments...
**[09:30] ---**
This whole project...!
**[09:40] ---**
There isn't any wind, and yet...
**[09:43] ---**
Electromagnetic waves!
**[09:51] ---**
Why...?
**[09:57] ---**
Why did it turn out like this?
**[10:00] ---**
There's only one way left to keep
there from being any more victims.
**[10:06] ---**
But if even that doesn't stop it...
**[10:12] ---**
...then...
**[10:20] ---**
Help...
**[10:23] ---**
Help me...
**[10:34] ---**
A cat?
**[10:43] ---**
What are you doing?
**[10:53] ---**
What's this, out of the blue?
**[10:55] ---**
It's up to me what I do
and where I do it, right?
**[10:57] ---**
You don't have any business asking me,
**[10:59] ---**
when you're out for some night life.
**[11:01] ---**
Cut it out.
**[11:03] ---**
Cut what out? I'm way past--
**[11:05] ---**
"Shifting 'Accelerator' to the Absolute Ability
by Using Mass-produced Esper 'Sisters'"
**[11:06] ---**
I read about your sister, the other
Sisters, and the experiments.
**[11:12] ---**
Let's both cut right to the chase.
**[11:15] ---**
That's...
**[11:16] ---**
You...
**[11:18] ---**
I've been found out? By him?
**[11:24] ---**
Aww, just who are you, anyway?
You just met my clone yesterday,
**[11:30] ---**
and already,
you've arrived where you are.
**[11:32] ---**
You could be a detective.
**[11:34] ---**
A busybody like you isn't
going to approve of this plan, huh?
**[11:38] ---**
But if you're holding that,
**[11:40] ---**
it means that you went into
my room without my say-so, right?
**[11:43] ---**
The way you see it,
I'm a participant in the experiment,
**[11:47] ---**
who volunteered her DNA.
**[11:49] ---**
So you're here to condemn me, is that it?
**[11:52] ---**
On top of that,
you went through my stuffed bear.
**[11:56] ---**
You're going to die for that.
**[11:57] ---**
Oh, well.
**[11:58] ---**
The facts might be off, but if you
look at the outcome, it's the same.
**[12:03] ---**
In which case, it's that much
easier to be blamed by someone.
**[12:08] ---**
So, in the end, you think
what I've done is inexcusable, huh?
**[12:18] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[12:21] ---**
I was concerned, of course.
**[12:30] ---**
I'd rather there was someone
who says so, even if it's not true.
**[12:38] ---**
I'm telling the truth.
**[12:43] ---**
I said I'm telling the truth!
**[12:59] ---**
"#14 The Promise"
**[13:06] ---**
As for the others,
**[13:08] ---**
they call themselves
laboratory animals,
**[13:10] ---**
while keeping a straight face.
**[13:14] ---**
Like rats or guinea pigs--
**[13:16] ---**
they have their bodies messed
around with for research's sake,
**[13:19] ---**
and when they're done with them,
into the incinerator they go.
**[13:23] ---**
Those girls, you know,
**[13:24] ---**
they understand precisely what
it means for them to be lab animals.
**[13:28] ---**
And while they know,
**[13:30] ---**
they still refer to themselves as such.
**[13:33] ---**
This is a situation
that I brought about myself.
**[13:35] ---**
So I have to be the
one to help them out of this.
**[13:43] ---**
Where do you think you're going?
**[13:45] ---**
There's another
experiment being held tonight.
**[13:48] ---**
Before that happens, I'm going
to go have it out with Accelerator,
**[13:51] ---**
using whatever means I can.
**[13:57] ---**
Can you beat him?
**[14:00] ---**
It says here that Tree Diagram's
calculations predict
**[14:04] ---**
that you will be dead in
185 moves. Are you really...
**[14:08] ---**
...going there with
the intention of winning?
**[14:11] ---**
You're right. Unfortunately,
no matter what I do,
**[14:15] ---**
I'm no match for him.
**[14:17] ---**
But what if I wasn't
even worth that much?
**[14:22] ---**
Like, say,
**[14:24] ---**
if I were to lose after the first move,
**[14:26] ---**
then the prediction
that I'd lose in 185 moves
**[14:28] ---**
would end up being overturned.
**[14:31] ---**
What if the researchers who
see that start to doubt the project?
**[14:35] ---**
What if they reconsider the simulations?
**[14:38] ---**
Then even I would still be
useful for something, wouldn't I?
**[14:42] ---**
You... mean to die, do you?
**[14:48] ---**
And just because you're dead,
you think that will stop the project?
**[14:52] ---**
Yeah.
**[14:53] ---**
To the researchers, Tree Diagram's
projections are absolute.
**[14:57] ---**
But if, after one move,
I'm crawling on the ground,
**[15:01] ---**
unable to do anything
but turn tail and run away,
**[15:04] ---**
I'm sure the researchers will think,
**[15:06] ---**
there's some mistake in
what Tree Diagram has predicted.
**[15:11] ---**
But once they redo their calculations,
**[15:13] ---**
your death will have been for nothing!
**[15:14] ---**
Not so. Tree Diagram was shot
down three weeks ago by somebody.
**[15:21] ---**
That's why they can't recompute it.
**[15:24] ---**
You even know that?
**[15:26] ---**
Okay, now you understand, right? Let me by.
**[15:29] ---**
No way.
**[15:30] ---**
You heading off to try to wipe
the floor with Accelerator aside,
**[15:34] ---**
there's no way I can let someone
who's trying to kill herself go.
**[15:39] ---**
So then, what?
**[15:41] ---**
Are you telling me
there's some other way?
**[15:44] ---**
You can't even do anything,
**[15:46] ---**
so drop the high-sounding
talk and idealism.
**[15:48] ---**
It disgusts me.
**[15:51] ---**
Even so, I won't have it.
**[15:55] ---**
This isn't getting us anywhere, huh?
**[15:58] ---**
Don't tell me you think
that just because they're clones,
**[16:01] ---**
it's okay for them to die, do you?!
**[16:04] ---**
If you're going to stand in my way,
**[16:05] ---**
I'll shoot right through you.
If you don't want that, step aside!
**[16:12] ---**
I see, so you want to
settle this by force, do you?
**[16:16] ---**
Sure, I've never been able
to beat you before,
**[16:19] ---**
and I'm still not even sure
what kind of power you've got,
**[16:23] ---**
but I can't afford to
be beaten by you this time!
**[16:26] ---**
So you'd better fight
like you mean it! Otherwise,
**[16:29] ---**
you *will* die!
**[16:37] ---**
What do you think you're doing?
**[16:38] ---**
I... won't fight you.
**[16:41] ---**
Huh?
**[16:42] ---**
I won't fight you.
**[16:44] ---**
Huh? Are you really that dense?
**[16:48] ---**
Do you think that by doing that,
I'm not going to do anything?
**[16:51] ---**
I don't have any other route
besides this one!
**[16:53] ---**
Passive or not, if you get in my way,
I'll shoot through you!
**[16:57] ---**
Even so,
**[16:59] ---**
I won't fight you.
**[17:01] ---**
D-Don't screw with me!
**[17:03] ---**
If you mean to fight me,
then clench your fists!
**[17:06] ---**
If you don't mean to fight me,
then stop standing in my way!
**[17:08] ---**
But don't you trample on my
wishes so half-heartedly!
**[17:16] ---**
I'm telling you...
**[17:19] ---**
...to fight!
**[17:25] ---**
No way.
**[17:27] ---**
There's no way my attacks should
be able to land on him.
**[17:31] ---**
It didn't feel like it was
negated, like it usually is.
**[17:33] ---**
It felt like it went through his body...
**[17:45] ---**
Do you get it now?
**[17:47] ---**
I really will hurt you.
**[17:56] ---**
Why...?
**[17:57] ---**
I already told you.
**[18:00] ---**
I'm not going to fight you.
**[18:03] ---**
But why?!
**[18:04] ---**
You know how wrong these crazy
experiments are, right?
**[18:07] ---**
I'm trying to put a stop to
them, you know!
**[18:09] ---**
Why are you stopping me?!
**[18:11] ---**
Yeah, they're wrong.
**[18:13] ---**
For anyone to have to be hurt
for something like this...
**[18:17] ---**
Well then--
**[18:17] ---**
But,
**[18:18] ---**
the way you're going about it,
**[18:20] ---**
there's no saving you.
**[18:24] ---**
Which is why...
**[18:26] ---**
...I'm not moving.
**[18:35] ---**
What are you saying?
**[18:37] ---**
I don't have any right to
have anyone tell me that. Not now.
**[18:42] ---**
Supposing there is some happy world,
**[18:45] ---**
that everyone wants,
and where everyone is smiling,
**[18:47] ---**
I wouldn't have any place in it!
**[18:50] ---**
Do you think that your remaining sisters
**[18:54] ---**
would be grateful to you if you do this?
**[18:57] ---**
You must have realized it, right?
**[18:59] ---**
That nobody can be saved
by doing things this way.
**[19:07] ---**
You shut up.
**[19:09] ---**
If I die,
**[19:11] ---**
then they will feel a little relieved.
**[19:15] ---**
There's no other way
now except for me to die.
**[19:21] ---**
If my one life can spare 10,000,
that's a wonderful thing, right?
**[19:26] ---**
That's good enough, isn't it?
**[19:30] ---**
So... move...
**[19:34] ---**
I'm not moving.
**[20:26] ---**
You really *are* dense.
**[20:30] ---**
You've got nothing to do with this, do you?
**[20:33] ---**
If you'd just closed your eyes,
and pretended not to know anything,
**[20:37] ---**
you could go back to the same
life you've been living up to now.
**[20:41] ---**
Why would you run yourself so ragged?
**[20:44] ---**
Your heart may have even stopped,
if only for a short time.
**[20:53] ---**
How can you smile like that?
**[20:58] ---**
Because I thought,
"I'm glad I'm on her side."
**[21:03] ---**
So...
**[21:06] ---**
...don't cry.
**[21:17] ---**
I've got the way that
we can stop the experiment.
**[21:22] ---**
The experiment is being
simulated based on the presupposition
**[21:25] ---**
that Accelerator
is the strongest man.
**[21:28] ---**
So, what if he's actually incredibly weak?
**[21:33] ---**
For instance, if he were to lose to a Level 0,
**[21:36] ---**
the weakest in Academy City,
**[21:38] ---**
that assumption would be
turned upside-down, wouldn't it?
**[21:42] ---**
Hold on...
**[21:43] ---**
You're not saying...
**[21:45] ---**
I...
**[21:46] ---**
...will fight him.
**[21:48] ---**
That's impossible! He's on
a whole different level than I am!
**[21:52] ---**
He's the kind of monster
who would think nothing of it
**[21:54] ---**
if the world's armies
were to be turned on him.
**[21:56] ---**
This time, you really will be...
**[21:57] ---**
Mama isn't here to
solve every little problem.
**[22:01] ---**
Please!
**[22:02] ---**
I can't drag anyone else into my own sin
**[22:04] ---**
of allowing 10,000 people to die!
**[22:06] ---**
And it's not like praying
to God will work any miracles.
**[22:10] ---**
I have to bring an end
to this all by myself! So please--
**[22:14] ---**
Okay then, work with me.
**[22:17] ---**
Having everyone come back smiling,
**[22:20] ---**
without having lost anything,
is *my* dream.
**[22:23] ---**
So work with me,
so that it can come true.
**[22:28] ---**
And if I cry,
**[22:30] ---**
it's not like there are any
heroes that will come dashing--
**[22:32] ---**
Just sit tight.
**[22:33] ---**
I'll make sure to bring
your sister back with me.
**[22:40] ---**
That's a promise.
**[22:55] ---**
The experiment starts...
**[22:57] ---**
...at 8:30!
**[23:02] ---**
Here, kitty.
**[23:06] ---**
Here, kitty.
**[23:47] ---**
"Next episode preview"
**[23:48] ---**
I don't think there's any chance of beating him.
**[23:48] ---**
"#15 Kamijo Toma"
**[23:50] ---**
If they--If she has to die
**[23:52] ---**
for the sake of their insane project,
**[23:54] ---**
then first, I'll put that
ridiculous fantasy to death!

**[00:29] ---**
Ow! Damn it, I don't have
time for this. What am I doing?
**[00:36] ---**
Is that jolt earlier
affecting my legs?
**[00:39] ---**
Or is it...
**[00:42] ---**
...that on the inside,
I'm really spooked?
**[00:45] ---**
Tch, I talk a good game,
but I'm pathetic!
**[00:49] ---**
The experiment starts at 8:30.
I have to hurry.
**[00:58] ---**
You're kidding, right?
**[00:59] ---**
It freezes up, at a time like this?
**[01:02] ---**
It must have happened then.
**[01:18] ---**
Hey, now, you guys are
all linked together, right?
**[01:22] ---**
During the last experiment,
I gave out a big spoiler,
**[01:25] ---**
so why don't you learn from that?
**[01:35] ---**
Hey...
**[01:37] ---**
What happens to the experiment
in a situation like this?
**[01:45] ---**
Why...
**[01:48] ---**
...are you here...?
**[01:56] ---**
Don't go bringing the irrelevant,
general public in with you.
**[02:01] ---**
Do we have to do the bit
where I silence the outsider
**[02:04] ---**
who finds out about our secret?
**[02:06] ---**
Get away from her.
**[02:10] ---**
Did you say something?
**[02:15] ---**
Get away...
**[02:20] ---**
Get away from the Misaka Sister,
**[02:23] ---**
right now! Can't you
hear me, third-string?!
**[02:40] ---**
*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[02:43] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[02:47] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings
we've built up together*
**[02:57] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*
**[03:03] ---**
*while I am unable to sense your pain*
**[03:10] ---**
*If the dreams you
committed to me that day*
**[03:14] ---**
*end up tearing me apart,*
**[03:17] ---**
*don't ever let go of that hope*
**[03:20] ---**
*more precious than anything else*
**[03:25] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[03:29] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[03:32] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[03:36] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[03:38] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[03:42] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[03:45] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[03:52] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[04:02] ---**
Wh--
**[04:04] ---**
Why...?
**[04:06] ---**
What did you just say?
"Get away from her?"
**[04:10] ---**
Who do you think you are?
**[04:15] ---**
You come to the guy who is far
and away the top Level 5 around,
**[04:20] ---**
and come off like
you're God, or something?
**[04:23] ---**
Don't just stand there nattering,
I told you to get away from her!
**[04:28] ---**
Heh, you're intriguing.
**[04:32] ---**
"Get away from her," huh?
**[04:35] ---**
In that case...
**[04:36] ---**
...make sure you catch her.
**[04:50] ---**
That was close...
**[04:54] ---**
"What... are...
**[04:56] ---**
...you doing?" asks Misaka.
**[05:02] ---**
I cannot understand your actions.
**[05:05] ---**
As long as the necessary equipment
and chemicals are available,
**[05:09] ---**
Misaka can be automatically
manufactured at the touch of a button.
**[05:12] ---**
Fabricated bodies,
stocked with borrowed minds,
**[05:16] ---**
at a unit price of ¥180,000.
**[05:18] ---**
There are still 9,968
unused units in stock.
**[05:24] ---**
For the sake of someone like that, you--
**[05:26] ---**
It doesn't matter.
**[05:29] ---**
Fabricated bodies,
or borrowed minds--
**[05:33] ---**
Little things like that
don't make any difference.
**[05:36] ---**
I'm standing here to rescue you,
since there's only one of *you*
**[05:40] ---**
in the whole world.
**[05:44] ---**
You've still got a mountain
of accounts left to settle. So...
**[05:49] ---**
...don't go dying however you please.
**[05:52] ---**
"You mustn't..."
**[05:56] ---**
says... Misa... ka...
**[05:59] ---**
What's the matter?
**[06:01] ---**
All finished with your
cheap melodrama?
**[06:04] ---**
Have you been doing this over and over?
**[06:07] ---**
Huh?
**[06:08] ---**
Last night, another one of
the Sisters in that back alley...
**[06:11] ---**
Oh, you saw that, did you?
**[06:14] ---**
Blood flow manipulation.
First time I tried it, too.
**[06:17] ---**
Hell of a performance, wasn't it?
**[06:21] ---**
I tell ya, who knew there was
that much blood stuck in a person?
**[06:26] ---**
Ah, but then,
that was a wind-up doll, huh?
**[06:29] ---**
Enough.
**[06:31] ---**
I thought maybe you were stuck
in this project against your will,
**[06:35] ---**
but it looks like I was wrong.
**[06:38] ---**
I'm going to make sure
you never do any of this again...
**[06:41] ---**
...by kicking your ass.
**[06:53] ---**
You're so slow!
**[07:01] ---**
You're completely deficient.
**[07:09] ---**
If that's your speed,
**[07:11] ---**
you couldn't beat
me in a hundred years!
**[07:16] ---**
Damn...
**[07:38] ---**
I couldn't stop him.
**[07:41] ---**
Even though I *had* to stop him.
**[07:45] ---**
Knowing him, he might be able
to accomplish it like it was nothing,
**[07:48] ---**
even though
I couldn't do it myself.
**[07:52] ---**
But then... I don't have
any basis for that feeling.
**[08:01] ---**
Are you, by any chance,
**[08:04] ---**
the same cat from the other day?
**[08:08] ---**
Sorry.
**[08:10] ---**
I can't tell you apart.
**[08:13] ---**
Like the others.
They're the same on the outside,
**[08:17] ---**
but each one of them has a life...
**[08:20] ---**
...as well as...
**[08:25] ---**
There's a reason why
I can't leave this up to anyone else.
**[08:29] ---**
First, I have to work
through my own feelings.
**[08:35] ---**
Let's go.
**[08:46] ---**
What have we here?
**[08:52] ---**
You're not a non-esper, are you?
**[08:55] ---**
The way you were talking, I thought,
**[08:57] ---**
"How much of a bigshot esper is this guy?"
**[09:00] ---**
But it looks like you
just charged in foolishly.
**[09:03] ---**
You're a small fry
among small fry, aren't you?
**[09:06] ---**
I don't like this.
**[09:08] ---**
Up until now, there have been
any number of misguided fools,
**[09:11] ---**
each of them nipping
away after my top-dog seat.
**[09:16] ---**
After losing an arm or a leg,
all of them, without exception,
**[09:20] ---**
realized what a fool they had been,
**[09:23] ---**
and displayed an
expression of regret and terror.
**[09:29] ---**
And yet, this guy...
**[09:33] ---**
Don't you understand yet
that you're as weak as they come?
**[09:39] ---**
If you want to die that badly,
I'll do as you wish,
**[09:41] ---**
and turn you into
an amusing work of art.
**[09:44] ---**
It looks like that shipping
container was loaded with flour.
**[09:49] ---**
And it's nice and
calm tonight, with no wind.
**[09:52] ---**
That just might make
this dangerous, huh?
**[10:01] ---**
Yo, third-string,
**[10:03] ---**
ever heard of a dust explosion?
**[10:24] ---**
Ah, I thought I was gonna die, there.
**[10:27] ---**
When you take all the oxygen away,
it's hard on yourself, too.
**[10:31] ---**
I guess the tag line
"He can even take a nuke" is out, huh?
**[10:37] ---**
So? What are you
squaring off against me for?
**[10:49] ---**
An explosion?
**[10:51] ---**
Don't tell me... he's...
**[10:56] ---**
Sorry.
**[10:58] ---**
I can't drag *you* into this, too.
**[11:04] ---**
You're actually lucky to
have such a low potential.
**[11:08] ---**
As weak as you are, my "Reflection"
doesn't work as well.
**[11:12] ---**
And, I think you've done
pretty well, in your own way.
**[11:17] ---**
Here you are, standing
before the great Accelerator,
**[11:19] ---**
still drawing breath.
**[11:21] ---**
So rest in peace, already!
**[11:25] ---**
Go ahead and touch
whichever hand you like.
**[11:27] ---**
Doing that alone will
reverse the flow of your blood,
**[11:30] ---**
and your bioelectric currents,
allowing you to die.
**[11:34] ---**
Which will it be?
**[11:36] ---**
Right? Or left?
**[11:40] ---**
Or both?!
**[11:55] ---**
The moon? What am
I looking at the moon for?
**[12:00] ---**
Is it because I'm flat on my back?
**[12:03] ---**
Well, how come I'm
lying on the ground here?
**[12:06] ---**
Huh? Him? He was just
in front of me. How did he...?
**[12:11] ---**
Wait, how is he still standing
there in one piece to begin with?
**[12:16] ---**
What is this? I'm hurt?
Is this... pain?
**[12:23] ---**
What the hell is this?!
**[12:25] ---**
Did he knock me flat? *Me*?!
That's impossible!
**[12:30] ---**
If that were true,
it's his arm that would be broken.
**[12:32] ---**
He shouldn't even
be able to *touch* me!
**[12:37] ---**
Did I focus everything into my hands,
**[12:39] ---**
unconsciously shutting down the
"Reflection" around the rest of me?
**[12:43] ---**
Damn it, what an idiotic move!
**[12:46] ---**
Interesting.
**[12:48] ---**
Damn it. Good! The best!
**[12:53] ---**
You pleasantly, fantastically
nailed me there! And now, you...!
**[13:11] ---**
**[13:11] ---**
"#15 Kamijo Toma"
**[13:24] ---**
No way.
**[13:26] ---**
He's fighting Accelerator...
**[13:29] ---**
...and he's on the offensive?
That's the strongest guy in Academy City.
**[13:33] ---**
He's a perfect stranger,
who has nothing to do with me,
**[13:37] ---**
and no one would
blame him if he ran away.
**[13:43] ---**
He really is...
**[13:46] ---**
...keeping his promise.
**[13:49] ---**
Damn you! Stop zig-zagging--
**[13:54] ---**
What is the deal with your right hand?!
**[14:01] ---**
Don't get too carried
away with yourself, third-string!
**[14:19] ---**
You got involved in all this bullcrap.
**[14:21] ---**
The Sisters are
living as best as they can!
**[14:26] ---**
They each give every ounce
of strength, desperately trying...
**[14:31] ---**
Why should they have to end
up as fodder for someone like you?!
**[14:38] ---**
They're... living...?
**[14:42] ---**
What's he talking about?
**[14:45] ---**
They're wind-up dolls, right?
**[14:49] ---**
That's what they told me, isn't it?
**[14:54] ---**
I need power.
**[14:57] ---**
The power to shut him up.
**[15:00] ---**
No, the dominion over
reason and rules that comes...
**[15:05] ---**
...from absolute power!
**[15:30] ---**
What is this, all of a sudden?!
**[15:49] ---**
Huh...? W-Why...?
**[15:52] ---**
No...
**[15:53] ---**
No!!
**[15:56] ---**
The air... the wind...
the atmosphere...
**[16:01] ---**
I've got the means
to kill that piece of crap
**[16:03] ---**
right here in front of me, don't I?
**[16:06] ---**
If I can get a handle on the direction
**[16:08] ---**
of the winds that
flow through the atmosphere--
**[16:11] ---**
if I can control the movement
of the world's wind currents,
**[16:17] ---**
it would even be possible
for me to destroy the world.
**[16:20] ---**
Academy City's strongest? Level 6?
**[16:23] ---**
I don't need them anymore!
**[16:25] ---**
There is nothing anywhere in
the world that can stop me now!
**[16:31] ---**
The whole world is in my hand.
**[16:35] ---**
Compress... Compress that air!
**[16:39] ---**
Terrific! I just had a delightful idea!
**[16:43] ---**
Hey, how come you're such a mess?
**[16:45] ---**
Get up, weakest guy!
**[16:48] ---**
You've got to stick
with me a bit longer, here,
**[16:51] ---**
or this won't be worth the effort!
**[16:55] ---**
Accelerator!
**[16:59] ---**
Don't move.
**[17:04] ---**
D--
**[17:06] ---**
Don't do it...
**[17:08] ---**
Misaka...
**[17:11] ---**
He's still alive.
**[17:13] ---**
I'm sorry. Your dream
may not come true,
**[17:17] ---**
but once I die, the experiments
will come to an end.
**[17:21] ---**
It may be selfish of me,
but even so, I want you to live.
**[17:29] ---**
Soon...
**[17:39] ---**
What is that?
**[17:42] ---**
He's compressing the wind
into one point to create... plasma!
**[17:46] ---**
Is he thinking of blowing
this whole area away?!
**[17:50] ---**
Those eyes--he didn't even
pay me the notice he would a worm.
**[17:55] ---**
Right now, I'm sure the
only thing he's interested in
**[17:58] ---**
is testing his new power.
**[18:01] ---**
What do I do? What do I--
**[18:05] ---**
He's compressing Academy City's
wind into one point?
**[18:08] ---**
Then if I use all
those things around town...
**[18:12] ---**
But how?
**[18:15] ---**
I can't do it by myself.
**[18:22] ---**
Please! Wake up!
**[18:25] ---**
She's cold.
**[18:28] ---**
What am I asking
of her, in her condition?
**[18:37] ---**
I know I'm asking a lot of you.
**[18:40] ---**
I know how awful
what I'm asking is, as well.
**[18:44] ---**
But there's something
I need you to do!
**[18:48] ---**
Uh-uh, there's something
that only you can do!
**[18:51] ---**
Why? Why am I so weak?
**[18:56] ---**
I can't protect everyone myself.
**[19:00] ---**
The Ace of Tokiwadai?
**[19:02] ---**
One of only seven Level 5s?
I can't do anything, can I?
**[19:07] ---**
I can't heal her injuries,
**[19:09] ---**
or do anything to stop Accelerator,
**[19:11] ---**
or make his dream come true!
**[19:17] ---**
So, I'm begging you...
preserve his dream!
**[19:23] ---**
I don't...
**[19:25] ---**
...understand...
**[19:28] ---**
I'm not sure I understand
what you're saying,
**[19:32] ---**
but for some reason,
**[19:36] ---**
your words have resounded with me.
**[19:42] ---**
Awesome! It's like a part of my body--
**[19:45] ---**
like moving my own arms or legs--
**[19:48] ---**
this sensation of bringing
all of the air under my control!
**[19:52] ---**
It looks like fighting
a strong opponent
**[19:54] ---**
really *was* a shortcut
to leveling up, huh?!
**[19:57] ---**
Right, third-string?!
**[20:00] ---**
With all my gratitude,
I'll leave no trace of you--
**[20:04] ---**
Huh?
**[20:08] ---**
What's happening?
**[20:10] ---**
The plasma is diffusing.
**[20:12] ---**
There aren't any
glitches in my calculations.
**[20:14] ---**
This isn't any
natural wind, by any stretch.
**[20:21] ---**
Thank you.
**[20:22] ---**
Let me take it from here.
**[20:25] ---**
I should be able to create a big
enough opening for them to escape.
**[20:29] ---**
If Misaka...
**[20:32] ---**
...interferes with the target,
**[20:34] ---**
the focus of the target
will be directed at Misaka.
**[20:38] ---**
Use that chance to take
the boy and leave this place.
**[20:42] ---**
Good grief. That's a
job for B-- --ster, you know.
**[20:51] ---**
Just what is going on with this wind?
**[20:54] ---**
Wind power manipulation? No...
**[20:58] ---**
The windmills are
turning the wrong way?
**[21:00] ---**
Hold on. I've heard about this.
**[21:03] ---**
It had something to do with
dynamo motors turning on their own
**[21:05] ---**
when hit with particular
electromagnetic waves.
**[21:08] ---**
It's them?!
**[21:10] ---**
Damn it. But what's going on, here?
**[21:12] ---**
Those windmills aren't
just spinning blindly.
**[21:16] ---**
They're being directed,
to disrupt my formulas!
**[21:24] ---**
The images she's seeing
are going across the network?
**[21:38] ---**
I'll crush you!
**[21:41] ---**
I won't let you!
**[21:47] ---**
That... voice...
**[21:50] ---**
You've toyed around with
me time and again, haven't you?!
**[21:53] ---**
Because the machine sets the policy,
and the humans follow it.
**[21:58] ---**
There's no other way
now except for me to die.
**[22:04] ---**
That's good enough, isn't it?
**[22:07] ---**
Help...
**[22:09] ---**
Help me...
**[22:12] ---**
Help.
**[22:29] ---**
*While looking up
into an unfamiliar sky,*
**[22:35] ---**
*always, always walking with you*
**[22:40] ---**
*I was searching for
the future I thought I saw,*
**[22:47] ---**
*so unlike the one up until a day ago*
**[22:53] ---**
*When you touched my heart,
convinced by my blurred vision,*
**[23:01] ---**
*that I was wandering*
**[23:05] ---**
*everything started changing*
**[23:09] ---**
*After counting clouds until I grew
bored of it, they drifted far away again*
**[23:15] ---**
*I went after them, and found
my dreams for tomorrow*
**[23:21] ---**
*Assured that it's now or never,
your feelings get through to me*
**[23:27] ---**
*and someday, I'm sure,
I'll offer mine, too*
**[23:33] ---**
*Like the clouds, gently, gently,*
**[23:39] ---**
*moving forever, forever forward*

**[00:24] ---**
Awesome! It's like a part of my body--
**[00:27] ---**
like moving my own arms or legs--
**[00:30] ---**
this sensation of bringing
all of the air under my control!
**[00:34] ---**
It looks like fighting a strong opponent
**[00:36] ---**
really *was* a shortcut
to leveling up, huh?!
**[00:39] ---**
Right, third-string?!
**[00:42] ---**
With all my gratitude,
I'll leave no trace of you--
**[00:46] ---**
Huh?
**[00:49] ---**
What's happening?
**[00:52] ---**
The plasma is diffusing.
**[00:54] ---**

*sister's noise, I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[02:04] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[02:08] ---**
*Nobody can ruin the feelings
we've built up together*
**[02:18] ---**
*The oft-repeated truth is still distant*
**[02:24] ---**
*while I am unable to sense your pain*
**[02:31] ---**
*If the dreams you
committed to me that day*
**[02:34] ---**
*end up tearing me apart,*
**[02:38] ---**
*don't ever let go of that hope*
**[02:41] ---**
*more precious than anything else*
**[02:46] ---**
*Though once closer to you than anyone else
(sister's noise...)*
**[02:49] ---**
*I cannot hear your voice
(I find it out...)*
**[02:53] ---**
*While the hands of time kept ticking away*
**[02:57] ---**
*I was finally able to find you*
**[02:59] ---**
*sister's noise, so I keep on looking
(sorrow of your heart...)*
**[03:03] ---**
*for where your lost heart is
(I shoot it down...)*
**[03:06] ---**
*I promise to preserve the shared
smiles we both felt*
**[03:12] ---**
*Nobody can ruin them now*
**[03:50] ---**
I can't understand it.
**[03:52] ---**
Why is the third-string
lying over there,
**[03:55] ---**
as well as yourself,
defending the wind-up doll?
**[03:59] ---**
That's an overproduced,
factory reject of yourself.
**[04:02] ---**
Out of everyone in the whole world,
**[04:04] ---**
you should be the
one most disgusted by it.
**[04:08] ---**
You don't think it's fun to have something
**[04:10] ---**
that has the same
face as you get wrecked?
**[04:12] ---**
But then, that's no reason for
you to put your life on the line, huh?
**[04:19] ---**
Can't stand to have someone
else become a Level 6 before you?
**[04:24] ---**
Or maybe,
**[04:25] ---**
it's some kind of atonement
**[04:27] ---**
for being the one who
kicked off these experiments?
**[04:34] ---**
I don't have any interest
toward that "Mind of God" business,
**[04:37] ---**
nor do I think I'm atoning for
any sin by doing this.
**[04:43] ---**
She's my sister.
**[04:47] ---**
These girls...
**[04:49] ---**
...are my sisters.
**[04:52] ---**
That's the only reason.
**[04:56] ---**
Sorry. I know how unfit
I am now, after all this time, but...
**[05:04] ---**
...just this one time, would you
let me stand here in that capacity?
**[05:11] ---**
Yes.
**[05:17] ---**
I'm not letting a single
one of them die anymore!
**[05:21] ---**
Huh?
**[05:26] ---**
Man...
**[05:28] ---**
Of all the things you
might have said just now...
**[05:31] ---**
Playing at being sisters?
What nonsense!
**[05:34] ---**
You're not going
to let me kill any of them?
**[05:36] ---**
Don't push your luck, downgrade!
**[05:39] ---**
You guys can't even slow me down!
**[05:42] ---**
It's like how visual acuity
can only be measured to 20/10.
**[05:47] ---**
Level 5 is the highest
rating there is in Academy City,
**[05:51] ---**
so I have no choice but to be
content with that level, that's all.
**[05:56] ---**
I'm sick of you, so I'm
gonna kill the whole lot of--
**[06:27] ---**
Impossible.
**[06:29] ---**
Doesn't he know how
many I've killed up to now?
**[06:35] ---**
I know so much about what it takes
to destroy a person, I'm sick of it.
**[06:40] ---**
There's no way he should
be getting up after that.
**[06:51] ---**
What am I doing?!
**[07:00] ---**
He just doesn't know
when he's had it, does he?
**[07:03] ---**
Even with the wind taken from me,
**[07:05] ---**
I can still finish him off
with one touch of my finger.
**[07:10] ---**
Well, this is intriguing.
**[07:13] ---**
As intriguing... as all get-out!
**[07:39] ---**
Clench your teeth, strongest guy...
**[07:44] ---**
The weakest guy is about to ring out...
**[07:49] ---**
Why...?
**[07:51] ---**
Why can't I break this guy?
**[07:55] ---**
Protecting... the wind-up dolls?
**[07:58] ---**
I was one step away from
absolute power!
**[08:02] ---**
Why... am I...
**[08:18] ---**
This power may just turn
the world itself against me,
**[08:24] ---**
and actually bring
destruction upon everything.
**[08:30] ---**
But then...
**[08:33] ---**
...if you had an absolute power,
past that of "mightiest,"
**[08:36] ---**
it just might bring about some changes.
**[08:38] ---**
To that end, go along with the project,
**[08:41] ---**
and carry out the experiments.
**[08:45] ---**
Guinea pig... wind-up doll... clone...
**[08:51] ---**
If power gives rise to conflict,
I could just become an absolute being,
**[08:57] ---**
enough so that nobody
will even want to fight me.
**[09:00] ---**
Once that happens,
**[09:03] ---**
then someday, once again...
**[09:07] ---**
Once that happens, then no longer...
**[09:19] ---**
...no longer... will anyone...
**[09:27] ---**
The Sisters are living as
best as they can!
**[09:30] ---**
These girls are my...
**[09:37] ---**
Really...
**[09:45] ---**
...what am I doing?
**[10:10] ---**
"#16 Sisterhood"
**[10:31] ---**
Huh?
**[10:33] ---**
A-Are you...?
**[10:42] ---**
"Kamijo Toma"
**[10:54] ---**
Excuse me for coming in... oh,
**[10:57] ---**
he's asleep?
**[11:05] ---**
To think that he really did defeat
the first-ranked of Academy City.
**[11:12] ---**
Just how crazy was that of you?
**[11:22] ---**
Sorry, did I wake you? Oh,
**[11:26] ---**
I brought you some get-well cookies.
**[11:28] ---**
I picked out something expensive
from the department store basement.
**[11:31] ---**
so they ought to
be passably good, I'll bet.
**[11:34] ---**
Also, I thought I should probably
say something... you know...
**[11:40] ---**
...to thank...
**[11:40] ---**
When it comes to cookies...
**[11:43] ---**
...aren't homemade the best?
**[11:45] ---**
Huh?
**[11:48] ---**
Just what kind of personality
do you expect from me?
**[11:52] ---**
Oh, it's not like that.
**[11:53] ---**
I'd venture that someone
as ham-handed as you
**[11:54] ---**
would fumble to make crummy,
misshapen cookies.
**[11:57] ---**
Mmm, you see what I mean?
**[12:02] ---**
Like I said, what do
you expect from me?!
**[12:05] ---**
J-Just a minute!
This is a hospital! I'm injured, here!
**[12:08] ---**
You idiot! It's full of
sensitive equipment in here!
**[12:15] ---**
Good grief...
**[12:20] ---**
Last night,
**[12:22] ---**
little sister Misaka came by here.
**[12:25] ---**
She said the experiments
had been suspended.
**[12:29] ---**
Mm-hmm...
**[12:31] ---**
But still... because of me...
**[12:35] ---**
...so many...
**[12:42] ---**
If you hadn't offered your DNA map,
**[12:45] ---**
none of the Sisters
would ever have been born.
**[12:49] ---**
That experiment
was wrong in a lot of ways,
**[12:52] ---**
but I sure do think that
you can at least take pride
**[12:55] ---**
in the fact that
the Sisters were born.
**[13:01] ---**
If they hadn't been born,
**[13:03] ---**
they could never have
been happy or sad, after all.
**[13:10] ---**
Besides, they all...
**[13:13] ---**
...wouldn't want to see you
moping around all by yourself.
**[13:25] ---**
How are your injuries doing?
**[13:28] ---**
Compared to that boy,
this is nothing serious.
**[13:32] ---**
That's good.
**[13:33] ---**
I'm pushing now! Here!
**[13:36] ---**
Yay!
**[13:39] ---**
Lives created by a machine...
**[13:45] ---**
Right after they are born,
they are a blank slate.
**[13:49] ---**
As such, if it is imprinted
onto them that they are lab animals,
**[13:53] ---**
they come to accept that
that's all that they are worth.
**[13:59] ---**
However, if they look
at the world around them,
**[14:02] ---**
like she did, as a single person,
then those girls are sure to...
**[14:10] ---**
So, listen...
**[14:13] ---**
...you probably don't want to see my face,
and can't forgive what I did,
**[14:18] ---**
but I think that there are a
lot of obstacles ahead of you
**[14:21] ---**
in trying to gain an
understanding of the world.
**[14:23] ---**
So... um...
**[14:27] ---**
If there's anything I can do... to...
**[14:31] ---**
...help?
**[14:33] ---**
"This is called 'stand-n-swing',"
**[14:35] ---**
says Misaka, putting
into practice the knowledge
**[14:38] ---**
she gained from Testament,
and becoming one with the wind.
**[14:40] ---**
Wow!
**[14:41] ---**
Amazing!
**[14:47] ---**
"Whoo, any more than that
**[14:49] ---**
and I'm afraid it might aggravate
my injuries, so that's all for me,"
**[14:52] ---**
says Misaka, wiping away her sweat.
**[14:55] ---**
Oh? Is something the matter?
**[14:57] ---**
Mm-mm... Sorry, just leave
me alone a moment.
**[15:00] ---**
Sissy, do it again!
**[15:02] ---**
Huh? No, that's enough.
**[15:05] ---**
"That's not right.
**[15:07] ---**
Being an older sister
means you have an obligation
**[15:10] ---**
to indulge your younger sister."
**[15:11] ---**
Huh?
**[15:12] ---**
...says Misaka, pushing the
brainwashing so it starts young.
**[15:16] ---**
Hey!
**[15:24] ---**
This is what is called a kitten.
**[15:26] ---**
I know!
**[15:28] ---**
Say, are you two ladies sisters?
You look the same!
**[15:33] ---**
You're twins, right?
**[15:35] ---**
Which is the older one,
and which is the younger one?
**[15:37] ---**
Huh?
**[15:38] ---**
The thing is...
**[15:40] ---**
Ah! Wait, I want to guess!
**[15:42] ---**
Let's see... um...
**[15:49] ---**
*You're* the one who said you wanted to!
**[15:52] ---**
You!
**[15:53] ---**
You're the younger sister, right?
You've got a Gekota, after all!
**[15:58] ---**
I've got a stuffed animal, too!
**[16:00] ---**
Huh?!
**[16:00] ---**
"Mmph!"
**[16:02] ---**
...says Misaka, trying to
imitate breaking into laughter.
**[16:06] ---**
It is true that she has juvenile
tastes inappropriate to her age...
**[16:10] ---**
...is unmannerly...
hot-tempered... and belligerent...
**[16:15] ---**
...and for all that, she is a contrarian,
**[16:17] ---**
who won't admit it
when she likes something...
**[16:21] ---**
...but my problem-child older
sister did risk her life for Misaka.
**[16:41] ---**
It is strange.
**[16:42] ---**
Misaka was supposed to be
dead after last night's experiment.
**[16:47] ---**
It was supposed to be a matter of course,
**[16:49] ---**
played out over and over,
more than 10,000 times before.
**[16:53] ---**
And yet, right now, at this moment,
**[16:56] ---**
she continues to be active.
**[17:00] ---**
The Misakas were
created in order to be killed.
**[17:05] ---**
That alone was our *raison d'être*,
the reason why we were born.
**[17:11] ---**
However, Sissy, thanks to you
and that boy, that has been lost.
**[17:18] ---**
We have been downsized.
**[17:19] ---**
Huh?
**[17:19] ---**
We are unemployed.
Turned adrift into the world.
**[17:26] ---**
So...
**[17:28] ---**
"Please remain together with
Misaka from now on in her search,
**[17:32] ---**
as she tries to discover
the meaning of living,"
**[17:37] ---**
says Misaka,
asking a world of indulgence.
**[17:43] ---**
Mm-hmm, if you'll have me.
**[17:54] ---**
Sissy, do it again!
**[17:56] ---**
Okay, okay.
**[18:03] ---**
So that's it.
**[18:05] ---**
That's the reason for all of it?
**[18:07] ---**
Yeah, it is.
**[18:08] ---**
Miss Misaka, huh? Yeah...
**[18:11] ---**
She said there are a lot
of prying eyes in the dorm kitchen,
**[18:15] ---**
and could she come borrow my oven.
It was a full-blown big deal.
**[18:19] ---**
So that's why she went to all of this?
**[18:22] ---**
It's a little bit surprising, huh?
**[18:23] ---**
I know, right?
**[18:24] ---**
But then, I'm glad Misaka
seems to have cheered up.
**[18:28] ---**
Yes, indeed. But who exactly
could she be making this present for?
**[18:33] ---**
She never did say, no matter
how many times I asked her.
**[18:36] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[18:38] ---**
Yeah.
**[18:40] ---**
For crying out loud...
**[18:42] ---**
Miss Saten sure was enjoying herself.
**[18:45] ---**
It's not as though I made
these because I wanted to, after all.
**[18:48] ---**
It's just a thank-you. A thank-you!
**[18:51] ---**
But then, this *is
*him we're talking about.
**[18:55] ---**
"I was fighting for my own sake.
**[18:57] ---**
I've done nothing that deserves any thanks."
**[19:00] ---**
I'll bet that's what he says.
**[19:03] ---**
Am I just being corny?
**[19:07] ---**
No, no, no! But then,
if that's his reasoning,
**[19:09] ---**
it's still my prerogative
to follow through.
**[19:15] ---**
But wait! If he asks me to
make something homemade,
**[19:17] ---**
then doesn't accept it,
he's gonna pay--
**[19:19] ---**
What's he gonna pay for?
**[19:24] ---**
What are you doing out here?!
**[19:26] ---**
Huh?
**[19:27] ---**
You're still supposed
to be in the hospital, right?
**[19:30] ---**
Oh... hospital costs
are no small potatoes,
**[19:33] ---**
and I've got a hungry roommate
**[19:35] ---**
that gets more violent with
each passing day.
**[19:38] ---**
For that matter,
**[19:39] ---**
what are *you* doing way out here?
**[19:43] ---**
W-Well, I...
**[19:46] ---**
By any chance, were you coming
to visit me again? Heh, yeah, right.
**[19:50] ---**
I-I-I was not!
**[19:53] ---**
You know, you don't
have to deny it that hard.
**[19:56] ---**
You idiot!
**[19:58] ---**
Uh, no, I wasn't coming
to check on you, or anything...
**[20:02] ---**
...that is... lately...
**[20:05] ---**
...you've helped me out an awful lot, so...
**[20:08] ---**
...so... I... offer my...
**[20:15] ---**
...my gra-- grat-- at-- at--
**[20:20] ---**
Ant?
**[20:23] ---**
Oh, you're in the middle of
some independent research?
**[20:26] ---**
It *is* the end of summer
vacation, I guess.
**[20:28] ---**
No! And what am I, a grade-schooler?
**[20:31] ---**
Sorry to interrupt you.
See you around, Zapper.
**[20:44] ---**
Misaka Mikoto!
**[20:46] ---**
Huh?
**[20:47] ---**
My name!
**[20:49] ---**
It's not "Zapper," it's "Misaka Mikoto."
You always call me that.
**[20:53] ---**
Would you just learn it, already?
**[20:56] ---**
Then again, maybe that's
too much to ask of you.
**[21:02] ---**
See you later, Misaka.
**[21:17] ---**
Bad news! Siss--
**[21:20] ---**
What is the matter with you, Sissy?!
**[21:22] ---**
Wah!
**[21:22] ---**
Are you not feeling quite well?!
Are you hurt somewhere?!
**[21:25] ---**
Or perhaps you ate something
that did not agree with you?!
**[21:28] ---**
W-What are you talking about?
A-And what's the bad news?
**[21:33] ---**
Oh, that. The head resident
seems to have learned
**[21:36] ---**
about your streak of staying
out nights without permission.
**[21:39] ---**
She says you better have a
satisfactory explanation.
**[21:43] ---**
That's bad, huh?
I need some excuse... wait....
**[21:46] ---**
Ah, you came all the way out
here just to tell me that? Thanks.
**[21:51] ---**
But how did you know I was here?
**[21:53] ---**
Huh? A-As they say, "like knows like."
**[21:55] ---**
Wherever Sissy is,
there will be Kuroko, as well.
**[21:58] ---**
But more importantly,
are you sure nothing is amiss?
**[22:01] ---**
If anything were
to happen to you, Sissy,
**[22:03] ---**
then I will not sit still--
**[22:05] ---**
For Pete's sake.
**[22:07] ---**
If you keep talking funny,
I'll leave you here.
**[22:11] ---**
Well, Sissy, you were...
**[22:13] ---**
...making a face that
I have never seen before...
**[22:29] ---**
*While looking up
into an unfamiliar sky,*
**[22:35] ---**
*always, always walking with you*
**[22:41] ---**
*I was searching for
the future I thought I saw,*
**[22:47] ---**
*so unlike the one up until a day ago*
**[22:53] ---**
*When you touched my heart,
convinced by my blurred vision,*
**[23:01] ---**
*that I was wandering*
**[23:05] ---**
*everything started changing*
**[23:09] ---**
*After counting clouds until I grew
bored of it, they drifted far away again*
**[23:16] ---**
*I went after them, and found
my dreams for tomorrow*
**[23:21] ---**
*Assured that it's now or never,
your feelings get through to me*
**[23:27] ---**
*and someday, I'm sure,
I'll offer mine, too*
**[23:33] ---**
*Like the clouds, gently, gently,*
**[23:39] ---**
*moving forever, forever forward*
**[23:47] ---**
"Next episode preview"
**[23:48] ---**
I'm so glad Miss Misaka is feeling better.
**[23:48] ---**
"#17 Study Group"
**[23:50] ---**
Still, I wonder who those cookies were for.
**[23:52] ---**
*EXPOSED*!
**[23:53] ---**
Miss Shirai?
**[23:54] ---**
At the study group, we'll come
out of our shells, *BODY AND SOUL*!

**[00:18] ---**
An after-hours pass request?
**[00:22] ---**
"After-hours Pass Request"
**[00:22] ---**
Y-Yes!
**[00:24] ---**
After offering me such
an utterly flimsy excuse
**[00:26] ---**
for being out for all those
nights without permission,
**[00:28] ---**
you ask for this?
You've got your nerve, Misaka.
**[00:34] ---**
Indeed, all of the necessary
report paperwork seems to be here.
**[00:39] ---**
Incidentally,
**[00:40] ---**
I got a request with the exact
same content within it from Shirai.
**[00:44] ---**
It was dated tomorrow, and the
reason for absence was the same--
**[00:47] ---**
"A study group with some friends."
**[00:49] ---**
Oh, yes. I'm going with Kuroko--
**[00:51] ---**
What are you scheming?
**[00:52] ---**
N-Nothing! Just studying!
A study group!
**[00:57] ---**
If you were studying,
you could do it in the dorm.
**[00:59] ---**
There's no reason for
you to head outside, right?
**[01:01] ---**
It's for a change of pace, you might say.
**[01:04] ---**
Studying with friends from another school.
**[01:06] ---**
All of us seem to be jammed
with summer vacation homework. Um...
**[01:11] ---**
Very well, request granted.
**[01:12] ---**
Huh?
**[01:15] ---**
"Approved"
**[01:15] ---**
Be good to your friends.
However...
**[01:18] ---**
...if you're even one minute
over your return time,
**[01:22] ---**
you know what's going to happen...
**[01:25] ---**
...don't you?
**[01:26] ---**
Y-Yes!
**[01:29] ---**
*A shining hope runs its way
through the city, letting friends*
**[01:36] ---**
*who always believe in each other
join hands and follow their hearts*
**[01:43] ---**
*in an ongoing search for
a future they have faith in*
**[01:51] ---**
*Standing still amid
the hustle and bustle,*
**[01:54] ---**
*I watched as you faded into the distance*
**[01:57] ---**
*Because I now realize*
**[02:00] ---**
*the importance of sharing*
**[02:04] ---**
*Both the day and all of
us are wreathed in smiles*
**[02:10] ---**
*and I want to preserve
how normal that feels for us*
**[02:19] ---**
*When the sky resounds
with dreams kicking off*
**[02:26] ---**
*unshakable power starts seizing on reality*
**[02:32] ---**
*It's because you had the
strength to reveal your weakness*
**[02:39] ---**
*that I never forget, every single day,
to cherish the bonds between us*
**[02:45] ---**
*and head held high,
blaze a future to be proud of*
**[03:07] ---**
Hello-o! Uiharu? What's up?
**[03:10] ---**
It sounds like both Miss Misaka
and Miss Shirai got their passes.
**[03:14] ---**
Really? Terrific!
**[03:17] ---**
They said that getting their
paperwork together was a hassle,
**[03:20] ---**
but it turned out okay.
**[03:21] ---**
Which means that the study group
can go on today as scheduled,
**[03:25] ---**
and for the first time in too long,
we'll all be together, huh?
**[03:27] ---**
Mm-hmm. Heh heh,
when we see Misaka this time,
**[03:31] ---**
we'll have to find out for sure
who it is she gave the cookies to.
**[03:35] ---**
Now, Miss Saten,
**[03:37] ---**
we're not entirely sure that
it was a boy she gave them to.
**[03:39] ---**
There's no doubt about it!
**[03:41] ---**
I've never seen the maidenly
Misaka ever look like that before.
**[03:45] ---**
All right, all done.
**[03:47] ---**
Okay, put them in the oven.
**[03:51] ---**
We just have to
wait for them to bake now.
**[03:54] ---**
Sorry to put you out, Miss Saten,
asking to let me use your kitchen.
**[03:59] ---**
Oh, no, I don't mind at all,
**[04:02] ---**
but if you're baking cookies,
Misaka, I'm sure your dorm
**[04:05] ---**
is better equipped
than using my lame oven.
**[04:08] ---**
Oh, mm-mm...
**[04:09] ---**
No, at my dorm's kitchen, there are
too many peering eyes, so I can't.
**[04:15] ---**
Mainly Kuroko,
and Kuroko, and Kuroko...
**[04:17] ---**
Ho-ho...
**[04:19] ---**
So this is a present to someone
**[04:21] ---**
you don't want
people asking about, isn't it?
**[04:24] ---**
N-No! I'm just in their debt,
**[04:27] ---**
and I don't like to
remain in anyone's debt.
**[04:29] ---**
I think store-bought is good enough,
**[04:32] ---**
but the idiot said something about
how cookies should be homemade.
**[04:35] ---**
Oh, but I'm not doing
this because I was asked to!
**[04:39] ---**
Rather, it's more to shut up their
whining, since I've gone this far.
**[04:44] ---**
Still, good for you.
**[04:46] ---**
Huh?
**[04:46] ---**
Uiharu and I have been
concerned about you, Misaka,
**[04:50] ---**
to say nothing of Shirai.
**[04:54] ---**
I may not be someone
you can turn to for help,
**[04:56] ---**
but I would be delighted
if you need someone to talk to.
**[05:01] ---**
Sorry, it's just...
**[05:03] ---**
I'm the one who caused this problem,
**[05:06] ---**
so I couldn't bear to
drag anyone else into it.
**[05:09] ---**
Thinking about it now, I guess
I was pretty well at my wit's end.
**[05:13] ---**
From now on, I'll be
more careful. I apologize!
**[05:15] ---**
Okay.
**[05:16] ---**
So, is the reason
you're feeling better now
**[05:20] ---**
due to this boyfriend I hear about?
**[05:22] ---**
Boyf--?! N-No,
I'm telling you, that's not...!
**[05:27] ---**
The flour! Whoa, and the
eggs, too! Oh, what do we do?
**[05:29] ---**
How adorable.
She messed up the room, though.
**[05:34] ---**
It's poor form to try to
force it out of her, Miss Saten.
**[05:38] ---**
Yeah, yeah, I know.
**[05:41] ---**
Once Miss Shirai and
I finish our Judgment work,
**[05:44] ---**
we'll go shopping and
head over, and Miss Haru'ue...
**[05:48] ---**
says she has something to
take care of, and will be a little late.
**[05:51] ---**
All right.
**[05:52] ---**
I'll get things ready while I wait.
**[05:54] ---**
Okay then, see you later.
**[05:59] ---**
Miss Shirai, good morning!
**[06:02] ---**
Good morning to you.
**[06:04] ---**
Back to having lots
of free time, Misaka?
**[06:07] ---**
Now, listen! Would you mind
not sounding like I'm never busy?
**[06:11] ---**
I'm just taking it easy now
**[06:12] ---**
because I've got
nothing until this afternoon.
**[06:14] ---**
You've been skipping meals in
the dorm a lot lately, huh?
**[06:17] ---**
What have you been doing?
**[06:19] ---**
Hmm, I've been busy
with this and that.
**[06:24] ---**
Shirai often ate here all by herself.
**[06:28] ---**
Mm-hmm,
**[06:30] ---**
I know.
**[06:55] ---**
It sure is peaceful, huh?
**[06:58] ---**
That Money Card affair has died down,
**[07:02] ---**
and the back alleyways of Academy City
**[07:04] ---**
appear to be back to their usual calm again.
**[07:08] ---**
Say, where did you buy that?
**[07:10] ---**
Wanna go with me right now?
**[07:12] ---**
Really? I appreciate it.
**[07:13] ---**
Found one!
**[07:15] ---**
Huh? Again?
**[07:16] ---**
See? Isn't this place amazing?
**[07:18] ---**
Nice. All I've found are three-leafers.
**[07:22] ---**
Ah, Judgment lady!
**[07:25] ---**
Hello there.
**[07:26] ---**
Long time no see, huh?
**[07:28] ---**
Here, look!
**[07:29] ---**
When I told them what I found here,
**[07:31] ---**
everyone else said they wanted one,
too, so I brought them here.
**[07:34] ---**
Is that right? Still,
do not stay here too late, okay?
**[07:38] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[07:39] ---**
Found another one!
**[07:41] ---**
I found one, too!
And it has five leaves!
**[07:44] ---**
Let me see, let me see!
**[07:45] ---**
Look!
**[07:46] ---**
Oh, amazing! You're right!
**[07:46] ---**
Things really are peaceful, huh?
**[08:01] ---**
Homework?
**[08:02] ---**
Yes. I have to do a book report,
but I'm not sure what to write.
**[08:08] ---**
It is almost the end
of summer vacation, huh?
**[08:12] ---**
That's right. There's so
much of this and that left to do, too.
**[08:17] ---**
Ah, not again.
**[08:18] ---**
What?
**[08:19] ---**
Someone is trying to hack
into Sakugawa Middle School's
**[08:22] ---**
newspaper club's server,
which I was asked to supervise.
**[08:25] ---**
We have a cracker.
**[08:27] ---**
For crying out loud,
this has happened a lot lately.
**[08:30] ---**
Why would they go after a middle
school newspaper club's system?
**[08:33] ---**
Well, when you've
got an ironclad goalkeeper,
**[08:36] ---**
people are going to want
to take their best shot at them.
**[08:38] ---**
Huh? Did you say something?
**[08:41] ---**
Hmm?
**[08:44] ---**
Ah, they broke through
the firewall again. That's amazing.
**[08:48] ---**
You're almost in. Fight on!
**[08:50] ---**
Fight on? Are you sure
you should leave them alone?
**[08:52] ---**
It's okay. The server
itself is a trap, after all.
**[08:56] ---**
Reporting the IP address of
the one who hit me to Antiskill now...
**[09:02] ---**
Ugh... Maybe I should
read a different book.
**[09:07] ---**
But then, I don't know what to read.
**[09:10] ---**
Imagine, the legendary
goalkeeper's weakness is book reports...
**[09:15] ---**
Huh? Goalkeeper?
**[09:18] ---**
Mm-mm, nothing.
Can I do anything to help?
**[09:20] ---**
Thank you very much.
**[09:22] ---**
Oh, this isn't homework,
but Miss Konori,
**[09:26] ---**
do you know of a supermarket
near here with a good selection?
**[09:30] ---**
Supermarket? Why?
**[09:33] ---**
I'm going to a study group after this.
**[09:35] ---**
We're each buying something we like to eat
**[09:37] ---**
and getting together at Miss Saten's place.
**[09:40] ---**
There.
**[09:45] ---**
Oh, my, my...
**[09:49] ---**
Who have we here?
If it isn't Miss Shirai.
**[09:52] ---**
Kongo Mitsuko...
**[09:54] ---**
Are you here shopping?
**[09:56] ---**
Well, yes.
**[10:02] ---**
What are you here to buy?
**[10:04] ---**
A few items of food.
**[10:05] ---**
What a coincidence. So am I.
**[10:08] ---**
If you would like me to,
I would not mind accompanying you.
**[10:12] ---**
You do not have to look
down on me while saying so,
**[10:14] ---**
since we are both
here for the same thing,
**[10:16] ---**
we are just spontaneously
going into the same store.
**[10:18] ---**
I must say, though, you must be lonesome,
**[10:21] ---**
going out shopping without
a single one of your friends.
**[10:25] ---**
It appears to me that you, also,
are out shopping by yourself.
**[10:30] ---**
I-I am not doing so at all!
**[10:32] ---**
Miss Wannai and Miss Awatsuki
are waiting for me.
**[10:36] ---**
Not that we have
anything set up, however.
**[10:38] ---**
I am just passing the time
by doing some shopping
**[10:40] ---**
until the two of them
finish their swim club practice.
**[10:43] ---**
Something that is
popularly known as "being alone."
**[10:47] ---**
Come, this way!
This fantastic shop is a favorite of mine!
**[10:51] ---**
Huh? Hold on!
**[10:54] ---**
A pet shop?
**[10:55] ---**
My, the selection here
is as wonderful as ever!
**[11:00] ---**
Um, Kongo...
**[11:01] ---**
These have such nice,
plump volume!
**[11:05] ---**
Um...
**[11:06] ---**
Would you hold them a minute?
**[11:10] ---**
When you say food,
you meant for your pet, did you not?!
**[11:13] ---**
Ecaterina, like myself,
has very delicate tastes.
**[11:18] ---**
And Ecaterina is...
**[11:21] ---**
...that python?!
**[11:29] ---**
A turtle?
**[11:48] ---**
Ah...
**[11:50] ---**
Here about the girls?
**[11:54] ---**
**[11:54] ---**
"#17 Study Group"
**[11:55] ---**
Yes.
**[11:57] ---**
The girls are all doing well.
**[12:01] ---**
The one who was injured
is also making good progress...
**[12:06] ---**
...on the surface, anyhow.
**[12:07] ---**
On the surface?
**[12:09] ---**
Following my examination,
I have learned a few things.
**[12:13] ---**
They are clones, created from
the somatic cells of you, the Original,
**[12:18] ---**
but being administered various
drugs within the culture fluid,
**[12:23] ---**
the rapid growth of their
bodies has been promoted.
**[12:27] ---**
At a speed such that
growing from fertilized egg
**[12:29] ---**
to their current form
took a mere fourteen days.
**[12:33] ---**
As a result, these somatic cell clones,
**[12:36] ---**
whose lifespans are
already shorter anyway,
**[12:38] ---**
have had their lives
shortened even further.
**[12:40] ---**
By shortened, how long do you mean?
**[12:44] ---**
I can't make any sweeping statements,
**[12:47] ---**
but at most, I would
say another year or two.
**[12:51] ---**
Oh, no...
**[12:54] ---**
Which is why they need to be adjusted.
**[12:58] ---**
Adjusted?
**[12:59] ---**
By balancing the hormones
that promote rapid growth,
**[13:04] ---**
and regulating the rate
of division of the cell nuclei,
**[13:07] ---**
we should be able to recover
a certain degree of their lifespans.
**[13:12] ---**
There are so many of them, after all.
**[13:15] ---**
We are currently in
the process of dividing this up
**[13:17] ---**
among research organizations
outside of Academy City.
**[13:21] ---**
From here on,
as we exchange more data,
**[13:23] ---**
that is likely to continue
at each of these facilities.
**[13:27] ---**
Outside facilities? I see...
**[13:31] ---**
The fight for those girls
is still going to go on.
**[13:36] ---**
Though this time,
it won't be a fight to die,
**[13:39] ---**
but to live.
**[13:53] ---**
Hmm... I just don't know.
**[13:56] ---**
I wonder what everyone
else is going to buy.
**[14:02] ---**
I have found the ultimate ingredient!
**[14:08] ---**
All right.
**[14:09] ---**
Yikes, I'm running late.
**[14:13] ---**
I'm sure Kuroko is waiting.
**[14:16] ---**
Welcome!
**[14:17] ---**
Ah, I'm meeting someone here.
**[14:27] ---**
I'll bring you a menu
and some water right away.
**[14:30] ---**
Oh, no! I'm not with them.
**[14:32] ---**
Tch, this is why I dislike
family restaurants.
**[14:35] ---**
They've got spoiled young girls
with sheltered upbringings around.
**[14:40] ---**
You're not actually convinced
that you won back there, are you?
**[14:43] ---**
Huh?
**[14:44] ---**
All told, it is a question
of prior information.
**[14:48] ---**
If I had known that you were Railgun,
I would have taken more care
**[14:51] ---**
setting up my stuffed dolls...
**[14:52] ---**
Frenda...!
**[14:53] ---**
Huh?
**[14:53] ---**
You haven't forgotten that
it was because you neglected
**[14:56] ---**
to clear up your stuffed
dolls that she got away, have you?
**[15:00] ---**
Huh? Oh, uh, that's right, huh? Tee-hee!
**[15:06] ---**
Learn your lesson, you blockhead!
**[15:08] ---**
Ee-yow!
**[15:09] ---**
What is going on here?
**[15:11] ---**
Quarrels inside the restaurant
disturb the other customers.
**[15:15] ---**
As a member of Judgment,
I cannot overlook...
**[15:18] ---**
Wait, Sissy, it is you?
**[15:20] ---**
How can you be starting a
dispute in a public place like this?
**[15:24] ---**
I-I am not! I was just...
**[15:26] ---**
You have to be more
circumspect in your behavior!
**[15:29] ---**
You must not get into fights
with the weaker general population.
**[15:32] ---**
Who are you calling weak general
population, you grade-schooler?!
**[15:36] ---**
If you are referring to me,
then as you can see,
**[15:38] ---**
I am a full-fledged middle-schooler.
**[15:41] ---**
Besides, I was only speaking
out of concern for your welfare.
**[15:44] ---**
If you get Sissy seriously angry
at you, it could mean your lives.
**[15:48] ---**
Like I said,
**[15:50] ---**
you keep your nose out of
this, small-fry! If we got into it,
**[15:52] ---**
*she* would be the one
who gets shredded to bits!
**[15:55] ---**
I have to take issue with that.
**[15:57] ---**
Are you aware that Sissy
is the Railgun of Tokiwadai
**[16:00] ---**
when you say that baloney?
**[16:01] ---**
*She* has a much different combat
record from that little girl.
**[16:04] ---**
All told, Mugino is going to win!
**[16:06] ---**
No, Sissy will!
**[16:08] ---**
It will be Mugino!
**[16:09] ---**
Sissy!
**[16:11] ---**
Mugino!
**[16:12] ---**
Sissy!
**[16:13] ---**
Just being older does not mean anything!
**[16:13] ---**
Hold on, Kuroko...
**[16:14] ---**
You've got some nerve, little girl!
**[16:15] ---**
Hey, Frenda...
**[16:16] ---**
Sure, Sissy's underwear may
have cartoon characters on them,
**[16:19] ---**
and in addition, her childish tastes
**[16:20] ---**
lead all of her day-to-day
goods be fashion over function,
**[16:23] ---**
but as Tokiwadai's Ace,
she possesses very respectable power!
**[16:27] ---**
Same for Mugino! Maybe she
does have some sore spots,
**[16:29] ---**
like sporting underwear that
she feels free to show off to anyone,
**[16:32] ---**
but she is unmatched
when it comes to her abilities!
**[16:34] ---**
All told, with that flat chest,
she doesn't have any presence.
**[16:38] ---**
Ah, how vulgar, thinking that
size is all that matters!
**[16:41] ---**
When it comes to
future potential, it is all Sissy!
**[16:43] ---**
Hey, watch your hands!
**[16:43] ---**
Hey, watch your hands!
**[16:49] ---**
Man, I'll never be able to go back
to that restaurant again, you know!
**[16:52] ---**
Wait up, Mugino!
**[16:55] ---**
Hello!
**[16:56] ---**
Ah, come on in!
**[16:58] ---**
Huh? Shirai, you look a bit disheveled.
**[17:01] ---**
It is nothing at all.
**[17:03] ---**
Ta-da!
**[17:04] ---**
Oh, a stewpot!
**[17:06] ---**
I borrowed it from a friend of mine.
**[17:08] ---**
I have the stock all ready to go, too.
**[17:10] ---**
Wow, we must be about the only ones
**[17:12] ---**
to have a stew party in
the middle of summer, huh?
**[17:15] ---**
Sissy, it is not a stew party,
it is still a study group.
**[17:20] ---**
Oh, right, right.
**[17:22] ---**
Still, eating hot food when
it's hot out is good for the body.
**[17:27] ---**
What ingredients did all of you bring?
**[17:30] ---**
Well, I wasn't really sure what to get...
**[17:35] ---**
...but the man at the
meat counter suggested this,
**[17:37] ---**
so I went ahead and bought it.
**[17:39] ---**
Boxes?
**[17:45] ---**
Wow! There's beef inside these boxes!
**[17:47] ---**
The marbling is incredible!
**[17:50] ---**
Huh? Did I get something wrong?
**[17:52] ---**
No, I've never seen this before!
What about you, Uiharu?
**[17:55] ---**
Oh, I bought a whole lot of vegetables.
**[17:58] ---**
I focused it around summer veggies,
**[18:00] ---**
like okra, corn, *mulukhiyah*,
and also some tofu and mushrooms.
**[18:05] ---**
Packed with vitamins,
it sounds really healthy.
**[18:07] ---**
Oh, yeah!
**[18:09] ---**
Young ladies must seek
after beauty at mealtimes, as well!
**[18:12] ---**
As it stands, it looks like
the ingredient that I prepared
**[18:15] ---**
is going to take the limelight!
**[18:17] ---**
Miss Shirai, what did you buy?
**[18:20] ---**
I was unsure at first.
When I was in the pet shop,
**[18:22] ---**
with plump mice in hand,
I was not sure what I would do.
**[18:27] ---**
M-Mice?
**[18:28] ---**
Pet shop?
**[18:30] ---**
However!
**[18:31] ---**
Immediately afterward,
I had an epiphany!
**[18:33] ---**
I said, *this* is an ingredient
befitting Sissy!
**[18:36] ---**
What on earth did you buy?!
**[18:37] ---**
Miss Shirai, we're not
playing stew-in-the-dark!
**[18:40] ---**
And that ingredient is...!
**[18:43] ---**
"Soft-shell turtle"
**[18:44] ---**
Turtle?
**[18:46] ---**
The soft collagen is certain
**[18:47] ---**
to enhance Sissy's fresh,
youthful skin to be even more beautiful!
**[18:52] ---**
And this...!
**[18:53] ---**
W-What is it?
**[18:55] ---**
Fresh soft-shell turtle blood.
**[18:57] ---**
It is mixed with apple juice
to make it easier to drink.
**[18:59] ---**
Now, go ahead and gulp it right down.
**[19:01] ---**
After drinking this, you will be
bustling with vigor--no,
**[19:04] ---**
in fact, you will be
utterly filled with vitality!
**[19:07] ---**
You may get so fired up,
there is a possibility
**[19:10] ---**
that you will be unable to get to sleep,
**[19:12] ---**
but if that happens,
I will come lie beside you...
**[19:15] ---**
Now then, let's start putting it all in!
**[19:22] ---**
Mmm, delicious! This tastes great!
**[19:25] ---**
This is the first time I've
ever eaten turtle, but it is delicious.
**[19:29] ---**
The turtle is good,
but this meat is the greatest!
**[19:32] ---**
The veggies are pretty good, too.
**[19:34] ---**
Which means it all ended up tasting good.
**[19:37] ---**
Yes it did.
**[19:38] ---**
I hope Haru'ue gets here soon.
**[19:41] ---**
I think she should be
arriving any moment now.
**[19:44] ---**
Should we have eaten without her?
**[19:46] ---**
We still have plenty of
ingredients here.
**[19:49] ---**
Yeah, yeah, let's keep on eating!
**[19:54] ---**
You know, it's a real mystery, huh?
**[19:56] ---**
What is?
**[19:57] ---**
Why is it that food tastes better
when it is eaten as a group?
**[20:05] ---**
Mm-hmm, the fact that
we're making it here while we eat
**[20:07] ---**
is a big factor too, isn't it?
**[20:09] ---**
I guess when it comes
to main dishes and cookies,
**[20:11] ---**
nothing beats homemade,
does it, Misaka?
**[20:15] ---**
Sissy, what is the matter?!
**[20:17] ---**
Are you all right?
**[20:19] ---**
I-I'm fine.
**[20:21] ---**
But your face is all red,
and you are perspiring unusually.
**[20:24] ---**
Huh? I said I'm all right!
**[20:26] ---**
Ah, these mushrooms look
delicious! Ooh! Hot! Hot!
**[20:28] ---**
How adorable.
**[20:30] ---**
Oh, Miss Saten...
**[20:33] ---**
I'm sorry I'm so late.
**[20:36] ---**
Come in, come in!
We've been waiting for you!
**[20:38] ---**
Oh, it's Miss Haru'ue!
**[20:40] ---**
Wow, this looks delicious!
**[20:42] ---**
Did you get your errand
taken care of, then?
**[20:44] ---**
Mm-hmm. I needed
to speak to my teacher.
**[20:49] ---**
This stew is really good.
I'll get a bowl ready for you.
**[20:53] ---**
Haru'ue, did you
buy any ingredients for us?
**[20:56] ---**
I bought some *udon* noodles.
**[20:57] ---**
Oh, that will be
perfect to round things out.
**[21:00] ---**
Okay, let's eat, let's eat!
**[21:19] ---**
Yeah, sure, Sissy!
**[21:21] ---**
Oh, why not?
**[21:27] ---**
Ah, I'm full, I'm full.
**[21:29] ---**
We will have to
diet for a little while, huh?
**[21:32] ---**
Still, that sure was fun, wasn't it?
**[21:34] ---**
I want to have another study
group sometime.
**[21:36] ---**
Yes. Getting the paperwork
together for it is hard, though.
**[21:40] ---**
We're not out past
our return time, are we?!
**[21:42] ---**
We are still all right,
but I think we should hurry a little.
**[21:47] ---**
If we are even one minute over,
our punishment will be merciless.
**[21:51] ---**
Yikes. Let's hurry!
**[21:56] ---**
Kuroko? What's wrong?
**[21:59] ---**
Nothing.
**[22:06] ---**
Let's go home.
**[22:09] ---**
Right, Sissy!
**[22:23] ---**
*The world into which I'm
stepping is too big for me*
**[22:30] ---**
*Acting tough to camouflage my impatience
and anxiety, I overextended myself*
**[22:36] ---**
*My mind still up in the
air over answers I cannot find,*
**[22:43] ---**
*time rushes by with no time to even breathe*
**[22:50] ---**
*If we're stifled by the daily grind,*
**[22:56] ---**
*come on, let's take a deep breath,*
**[23:00] ---**
*and set out for the hilltop at
the end of the rainbow*
**[23:06] ---**
*We'll carve out another unforgettable day*
**[23:11] ---**
*For the fact that we met
(I thank you)*
**[23:16] ---**
*It surely is something precious*
**[23:19] ---**
*Let's face forward and start walking,
carrying forward to tomorrow*
**[23:25] ---**
*We've shared some smiles
(and I thank you)*
**[23:28] ---**
*Let's take our joys and sorrows*
**[23:32] ---**
*and share them together, over and over*
**[23:47] ---**
"Next episode preview"
**[23:48] ---**
That should do it.
**[23:48] ---**
"#18 Moving"
**[23:49] ---**
We cleaned up quicker than expected,
**[23:51] ---**
huh, Miss Haru'ue?
**[23:52] ---**
Mm-hmm. Miss Uiharu?
**[23:54] ---**
Yes?
**[23:55] ---**
I really am grateful.

**[00:24] ---**
All told, what was our
assignment this time, anyway?
**[00:28] ---**
Well, that is an ultra-good question.
**[00:31] ---**
We were told to come here
to put a stop to an arms deal,
**[00:35] ---**
but far from any deal,
there isn't even a lousy cat here.
**[00:38] ---**
Instead, one of these
toys starts attacking us.
**[00:44] ---**
What's the matter, Takitsubo?
**[00:47] ---**
I'm getting this weird feeling...
**[00:52] ---**
Mugino!
**[00:57] ---**
Thanks.
**[00:58] ---**
Ultra-no problem.
**[01:02] ---**
Geez, don't startle
me like that, will you?
**[01:06] ---**
Thank you, Mugi--
**[01:11] ---**
Adequate results for a field test.
**[01:14] ---**
We're steadily gathering data
for the real thing--
**[01:17] ---**
Aritomi...
**[01:27] ---**
Whoo, I've got a tummy ache.
**[01:30] ---**
That's the first
time I've ever eaten turtle.
**[01:33] ---**
Miss Misaka's beef was amazing, too.
**[01:36] ---**
And as a result, I've overeaten.
**[01:39] ---**
Maybe you should
take some medicine.
**[01:44] ---**
Come to think of it, how did
the talk with your teacher go?
**[01:49] ---**
Mmm, we found the perfect spot.
**[01:54] ---**
You did, did you?
**[01:56] ---**
Then it's almost time, huh?
**[01:58] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[02:02] ---**
*A shining hope runs its way
through the city, letting friends*
**[02:09] ---**
*who always believe in each other
join hands and follow their hearts*
**[02:16] ---**
*in an ongoing search for
a future they have faith in*
**[02:24] ---**
*Standing still amid
the hustle and bustle,*
**[02:27] ---**
*I watched as you faded into the distance*
**[02:30] ---**
*Because I now realize*
**[02:33] ---**
*the importance of sharing*
**[02:37] ---**
*Both the day and all of
us are wreathed in smiles*
**[02:43] ---**
*and I want to preserve
how normal that feels for us*
**[02:52] ---**
*When the sky resounds
with dreams kicking off*
**[02:59] ---**
*unshakable power starts seizing on reality*
**[03:05] ---**
*It's because you had the
strength to reveal your weakness*
**[03:12] ---**
*that I never forget, every single day,
to cherish the bonds between us*
**[03:18] ---**
*and head held high,
blaze a future to be proud of*
**[03:33] ---**
So?
**[03:34] ---**
Who was that?
**[03:36] ---**
That fine young man a minute ago.
**[03:38] ---**
Just someone I know.
**[03:39] ---**
There you go again. Ah!
**[03:41] ---**
By any chance, is it the cookie boy?
**[03:43] ---**
N-No, no!
**[03:45] ---**
I'm in over my head with how
much he's been haunting me lately!
**[03:47] ---**
So then, who *is* the guy you gave
those cookies to, anyway?
**[03:51] ---**
I'm telling you, we're not--
**[03:52] ---**
Sissy...
**[03:53] ---**
You're late.
What have you been doing?
**[03:55] ---**
Let me tell you!
**[03:57] ---**
Wah! Look, look, the elevator is here!
**[03:59] ---**
Come on, come on, let's go,
everyone! Quickly, quickly, now!
**[04:03] ---**
W-What's the matter, Miss Misaka?
**[04:03] ---**
It really is adorable.
**[04:07] ---**
"Edasaki Banri"
**[04:08] ---**
Congratulations, Miss Edasaki!
**[04:11] ---**
We hear you're being discharged
the day after tomorrow.
**[04:13] ---**
Ah, thank you.
**[04:15] ---**
The reason that I was able
**[04:17] ---**
to try as hard as
I did to be discharged
**[04:19] ---**
and make sure I wore that
by the end of summer vacation
**[04:22] ---**
is thanks to all of you.
**[04:27] ---**
So, has everything after
you get discharged been settled?
**[04:30] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[04:31] ---**
Miss Edasaki is going
to be living with Miss Haru'ue.
**[04:34] ---**
Eh?
**[04:35] ---**
Is that right?
**[04:36] ---**
Yes.
**[04:37] ---**
I have been institutionalized
for so long, so...
**[04:40] ---**
Suddenly living on her
own would be quite hard for her.
**[04:44] ---**
That's why I asked my teachers
to let Banri and me share a place.
**[04:50] ---**
Is that right?
**[04:52] ---**
Then you will be moving again, huh?
Do you want us to come help?
**[04:57] ---**
That's okay.
**[04:59] ---**
Miss Uiharu and I already took care of it.
**[05:01] ---**
You did?
**[05:02] ---**
Yes. The movers will
be coming for it tomorrow.
**[05:06] ---**
You don't say.
**[05:07] ---**
You might have asked us, huh?
**[05:11] ---**
Miss Haru'ue said she had
**[05:12] ---**
something else to talk
about with Miss Edasaki.
**[05:15] ---**
Oh, okay.
**[05:16] ---**
Geez, Uiharu, if you'd
have just said something,
**[05:18] ---**
we would have helped with the moving.
**[05:20] ---**
It wasn't as big a deal as you'd expect.
**[05:24] ---**
But as a result, the whole
place is full of cardboard boxes now.
**[05:28] ---**
Come to mention it,
**[05:29] ---**
it was pretty wild when
Miss Haru'ue moved in, too, huh?
**[05:32] ---**
There's even more now than there was then.
**[05:35] ---**
Which is strange,
since she wasn't there very long.
**[05:40] ---**
Oh, right!
**[05:43] ---**
Miss Shirai, it's almost time, isn't it?
**[05:45] ---**
Oh, yes, you are right.
**[05:48] ---**
What? Some more Judgment work?
**[05:50] ---**
Yes.
**[05:51] ---**
We have been called on to do security
**[05:53] ---**
for the upcoming
Academic Reach Assembly.
**[05:55] ---**
Today is our preliminary inspection.
**[05:57] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[05:58] ---**
Um...
**[05:59] ---**
Why does a classroom
assembly need security?
**[06:02] ---**
Huh?
**[06:04] ---**
Oh, it's not that, Miss Saten.
**[06:07] ---**
It's not a classroom assembly,
**[06:09] ---**
but the Academy City
Research Forum Assembly,
**[06:12] ---**
or "Academic Reach" for short.
**[06:14] ---**
Academy City's students
devote themselves to daily study.
**[06:18] ---**
Those with outstanding grades
are given a forum for their papers.
**[06:22] ---**
That is what the Academy
City Research Forum Assembly is.
**[06:26] ---**
Although in this case,
grades are not the quality of one's ability,
**[06:30] ---**
but of their academic work.
**[06:32] ---**
So in other words, it's like a
Daihasei Festival for smart people?
**[06:37] ---**
Well, it's not quite
as glamorous as that.
**[06:39] ---**
But there are some well-developed
presentations and lectures,
**[06:43] ---**
and all sorts of things.
**[06:44] ---**
Oh, yeah? I'm not sure I get it,
**[06:47] ---**
but they're starting some kind
of interesting event this year, huh?
**[06:51] ---**
Um, they hold it every year.
**[06:54] ---**
Really?
**[06:56] ---**
Do you really mean
you're going to help us?
**[06:59] ---**
It's a request from a
senior member of the club,
**[07:02] ---**
so Miss Kongo, you're not at all--
**[07:03] ---**
What are you talking about?
If she is a senior to you two,
**[07:07] ---**
then she is as good as
a senior to me, too. Besides,
**[07:10] ---**
I have not been in the area very long,
**[07:13] ---**
so I have never seen an
Academic Reach Assembly.
**[07:16] ---**
This would be a perfect opportunity to--
**[07:17] ---**
Miss Kongo! Are you all right?
**[07:20] ---**
R-Ruffian! Would you assail me,
knowing that I am Kongo Mitsuko...
**[07:23] ---**
S-Somebody!
**[07:25] ---**
That's my bag!
**[07:33] ---**
It is the height of misconduct
**[07:35] ---**
to work such evil in the
sunny auspices of broad daylight!
**[07:39] ---**
And while the sun may
allow you to get away with this,
**[07:44] ---**
I, Kongo Mitsuko, will not allow it!
**[07:48] ---**
That's Miss Kongo for you!
**[07:50] ---**
So brilliant!
**[07:52] ---**
Miss Wannai, Miss Awatsuki,
**[07:54] ---**
there is an Antiskill
station just over there;
**[07:57] ---**
would you please call them here for me?
**[07:58] ---**
Yes, right away.
**[08:01] ---**
Now then...
**[08:03] ---**
You there, do you have a moment?
**[08:06] ---**
I saw what you did earlier,
and you went a bit too far, didn't you?
**[08:10] ---**
Huh?
**[08:12] ---**
I don't care if this man is a criminal,
**[08:15] ---**
I take a dim view of your
using your ability so recklessly.
**[08:18] ---**
And who are you?
**[08:20] ---**
There were any number of
other ways to handle the situation.
**[08:25] ---**
Like you said, there is
an Antiskill booth up ahead,
**[08:30] ---**
and there are also
surveillance cameras in place.
**[08:32] ---**
Just what are you--
**[08:33] ---**
If I may continue,
**[08:35] ---**
you should recognize how much
danger you exposed everyone here to.
**[08:39] ---**
Huh?
**[08:40] ---**
Did you not notice?
**[08:44] ---**
Luckily, you incapacitated him
with one shot this time,
**[08:48] ---**
but what would have
happened if you failed to?
**[08:52] ---**
He would have been enraged,
**[08:54] ---**
and might have taken
a woman or child hostage.
**[08:56] ---**
He's right about that.
**[08:57] ---**
That's so scary.
**[08:57] ---**
Indeed.
**[08:58] ---**
Those abilities aren't foolproof.
**[09:00] ---**
You seem to be quite sure of your ability,
**[09:04] ---**
but an ability is not a cure-all.
**[09:06] ---**
W-Well...
**[09:08] ---**
Just a moment, please!
**[09:10] ---**
I do not know who you are...
**[09:12] ---**
...but you do not
have to be so hard on her.
**[09:15] ---**
The fact remains that
Miss Kongo did secure the criminal.
**[09:19] ---**
Ladies...
**[09:21] ---**
I'm terribly sorry we took so long.
**[09:23] ---**
The Antiskill officers are
on their way now.
**[09:26] ---**
Th-Thank you.
**[09:29] ---**
Huh?
**[09:30] ---**
Where could that
gentleman have gone?
**[09:35] ---**
I am home.
**[09:37] ---**
Ah, welcome home, Kuroko.
**[09:42] ---**
What are you so exhausted about?
**[09:44] ---**
The preliminary Reach inspection.
**[09:47] ---**
I was aware that it is being held
**[09:48] ---**
across several
different universities, but still...
**[09:51] ---**
...who knew I would have to walk so much?
**[09:54] ---**
And now, I've walked my feet off.
**[09:56] ---**
It's tough being in Judgment.
**[09:59] ---**
By the way, how is Miss Uiharu?
**[10:03] ---**
The same as she always is.
She carried out her duties admirably.
**[10:08] ---**
I see. Moving, huh?
There sure is a lot to it, you know?
**[10:13] ---**
When you first moved into this room,
that was quite a fuss, huh?
**[10:17] ---**
Are you bringing up that old thing again?
The statute has run out on...
**[10:25] ---**
Sissy...?
**[10:27] ---**
Anything can happen.
This is Academy City, after all.
**[10:32] ---**
Yeah.
**[10:34] ---**
I know! If you're tired, how would
you like me to give you a massage?
**[10:38] ---**
...give you a massage?
...give you a massage? ...give you a massage?
**[10:45] ---**
Kuroko?
**[10:47] ---**
Eh? What?!
**[10:51] ---**
I'm just going to take a shower first.
**[10:54] ---**
Hey...
**[11:02] ---**
U-i-ha-ru!
**[11:08] ---**
Geez, Miss Saten,
you always, *always* do that!
**[11:10] ---**
Sorry, sorry.
**[11:14] ---**
Were you waiting for me?
**[11:16] ---**
Hmm? Oh, uh,
I wouldn't say that, exactly.
**[11:21] ---**
I really am fine.
**[11:24] ---**
Miss Haru'ue and I have been
discussing this for a long while, now--
**[11:27] ---**
how when Miss Edasaki
got out of the hospital,
**[11:29] ---**
it would be best if
she lived with Miss Haru'ue.
**[11:33] ---**
Oh, you have?
**[11:35] ---**
Well, if I said that I didn't
miss her at all, it would be a lie.
**[11:40] ---**
But still, I was thinking,
**[11:42] ---**
"Clothing"
**[11:43] ---**
it really is best for the
two of them to be together.
**[11:47] ---**
Besides, it's not as though
she's moving far away.
**[11:52] ---**
Once the new term starts, we'll see
each other at school every day.
**[11:56] ---**
Yeah, that's true.
**[12:00] ---**
Good, good, that's a
load off your big sister's mind.
**[12:03] ---**
Oh, come on, Miss Saten!
**[12:06] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[12:08] ---**
You're all right, then?
**[12:12] ---**
"#18 Moving"
**[12:13] ---**
Yes.
**[12:15] ---**
Sorry to keep you waiting, everyone.
**[12:19] ---**
What... do you think?
**[12:21] ---**
Great! Absolutely great!
**[12:23] ---**
It looks very good on you!
**[12:25] ---**
Thank goodness!
**[12:27] ---**
Ah, earlier, when you stayed
behind at the hospital to talk,
**[12:30] ---**
this is what it was about?
**[12:32] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[12:33] ---**
I couldn't wait to have
everyone see me wearing it.
**[12:34] ---**
Go on, Sissy!
**[12:36] ---**
Oh, right.
**[12:38] ---**
Miss Edasaki, congratulations
on being discharged.
**[12:40] ---**
Congratulations!
**[12:42] ---**
Thank you!
**[12:43] ---**
Well, shall we be going, then?
**[12:45] ---**
Huh? Where to?
**[12:47] ---**
A little getting-out celebration!
**[12:49] ---**
We have reservations at a
restaurant with delicious cakes!
**[12:52] ---**
Huh? Cakes? Thank you!
**[12:54] ---**
Yes, Shirai.
**[12:57] ---**
Miss Konori?
**[12:59] ---**
Eh? Traffic signal trouble?
**[13:02] ---**
Huh? I haven't done a thing!
**[13:05] ---**
The signals in this area
are down across the board.
**[13:09] ---**
I'm sorry to ask, but could
you come right away?
**[13:11] ---**
Yes... Yes... As you wish.
**[13:15] ---**
Huh? Miss Uiharu, are you going, too?
**[13:17] ---**
Well, I...
**[13:18] ---**
Oh, you couldn't.
**[13:20] ---**
Miss Edasaki *is* just
getting out of the hospital.
**[13:23] ---**
I can cover this by myself--
**[13:24] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[13:26] ---**
I *am* a member of Judgment!
**[13:28] ---**
Please, start without us.
**[13:30] ---**
We'll be there as soon as this is finished.
**[13:32] ---**
We'll see you later.
**[13:35] ---**
Good luck with your work!
**[13:36] ---**
Right. Okay, Miss Shirai.
**[13:39] ---**
Huh? Oh, yes... Well then...
**[13:43] ---**
They disappeared!
**[13:45] ---**
Well, we should hurry along, as well.
**[13:49] ---**
It's not quite the way we
planned it, but once again--
**[13:50] ---**
"Congratulations on your discharge!"
**[13:53] ---**
Congratulations on your discharge!
**[13:55] ---**
Thank you!
**[14:00] ---**
Delicious!
**[14:02] ---**
Isn't it?
**[14:03] ---**
Uiharu said that if we were going
to celebrate, it had to be here,
**[14:06] ---**
and she handled everything
from the reservations to the cake.
**[14:09] ---**
Miss Uiharu really
is something else, huh?
**[14:13] ---**
Before I was discharged,
**[14:14] ---**
she came to help me get moved
and take care of my admission.
**[14:18] ---**
Right?
**[14:19] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[14:19] ---**
Oh, yeah? Is that right?
**[14:22] ---**
It's true, the people who
join Judgment are amazing.
**[14:26] ---**
Knowing that you're
as thrilled as you are,
**[14:27] ---**
I guess it was worth
it letting Uiharu choose, huh?
**[14:30] ---**
Yeah, really!
**[14:31] ---**
I mean, this really is delicious!
**[14:45] ---**
Is that the key to your new place?
**[14:47] ---**
Oh, mm-hmm.
**[14:49] ---**
Uiharu has been
pretty enthusiastic, huh?
**[14:53] ---**
She was when it was my turn, too.
**[14:55] ---**
You mean, when you
were moving in? Oh, right, right.
**[15:00] ---**
She was really eager then, too, huh?
**[15:03] ---**
I was anxious to be by myself...
**[15:05] ---**
...but Miss Uiharu was there for me.
**[15:09] ---**
So now, it's my turn to make an effort.
**[15:13] ---**
Just like Miss Uiharu
did what she could for me,
**[15:16] ---**
I'm going to do what I can for Banri.
**[15:19] ---**
Yeah.
**[15:23] ---**
I hope Uiharu gets here soon.
**[15:25] ---**
I'm sure she's giving
her all at work, even now.
**[15:29] ---**
Wearing an unflattering helmet,
**[15:31] ---**
and directing traffic or something, huh?
**[15:34] ---**
She could ease up
at a time like this, though.
**[15:37] ---**
Not being able to is
what makes her Miss Uiharu.
**[15:40] ---**
You're right.
**[15:42] ---**
Maybe I should join Judgment, too.
**[15:46] ---**
Huh? When did
you suddenly decide this?
**[15:48] ---**
Then, maybe I could be like Miss Uiharu.
**[15:56] ---**
I don't think Miss Uiharu has
been so nice to you
**[15:58] ---**
because she's a member
of Judgment, Miss Edasaki.
**[16:02] ---**
Then, why?
**[16:05] ---**
Because she's your friend, right?
**[16:10] ---**
Oh, yeah.
**[16:12] ---**
Ah, getting discharged, huh?
**[16:15] ---**
Oh, nothing. Someone
I know is also in the hospital.
**[16:19] ---**
I was just wondering,
when they get out,
**[16:21] ---**
could we eat something
together like this?
**[16:27] ---**
Oh, no! Don't worry about it!
It's not that big a deal! Really!
**[16:33] ---**
I hope they get discharged soon, too.
**[16:37] ---**
Mm-hmm, thanks.
**[16:40] ---**
That was good work.
**[16:42] ---**
Sorry to call you in
out of the blue like that.
**[16:45] ---**
I have to say, though,
signal trouble, of all things...
**[16:48] ---**
There was apparently some
irregularity in the electrical system.
**[16:50] ---**
That is unusual-- something
like that happening in this city.
**[16:55] ---**
Miss Shirai!
**[16:57] ---**
Oh, that is right.
**[16:59] ---**
Well, we will be--
**[17:01] ---**
Geez, what is it?!
**[17:03] ---**
There's someplace I need to go!
**[17:06] ---**
Yes, I know. So let us--
**[17:08] ---**
No, not that! There's someplace
I'd like you to take us first!
**[17:15] ---**
What should we do?
Should we call them?
**[17:18] ---**
Yeah, maybe.
**[17:22] ---**
Okay, yeah, let's try calling them.
**[17:25] ---**
Sorry to keep you wai--
**[17:26] ---**
waiting.
**[17:28] ---**
Yes.
**[17:29] ---**
Oh, you're finally here!
**[17:31] ---**
Geez, Uiharu, you're late!
**[17:33] ---**
Miss Edasaki said she
was stopping at the hospital,
**[17:35] ---**
and already left, you know!
**[17:37] ---**
Huh? She did?! I-I'm sorry!
**[17:41] ---**
That's all right.
**[17:42] ---**
Banri said that the cake was delicious.
**[17:48] ---**
Um, here.
**[17:49] ---**
Please eat these with Miss Edasaki.
**[17:56] ---**
*Taiyaki*?
**[17:58] ---**
Listen, Uiharu, we've been
eating cake while you were gone.
**[18:02] ---**
Th-That's true, I know, but...
**[18:04] ---**
Having *taiyaki* after eating
cake is a little...
**[18:06] ---**
No, you see, I...
**[18:07] ---**
There, I told you so.
**[18:09] ---**
Now, now, little courtesies
go a long way--
**[18:11] ---**
No, you see...
**[18:12] ---**
It's the same *taiyaki* as before.
**[18:15] ---**
This is the same *taiyaki
*that Miss Uiharu bought for me
**[18:19] ---**
that one time before when I was so anxious.
**[18:23] ---**
They taste so good...
**[18:25] ---**
Huh? H-Hold on, Miss Haru'ue!
**[18:28] ---**
I'm hopeless!
I wasn't going to cry today, either!
**[18:33] ---**
Um...
**[18:34] ---**
I'm...
**[18:35] ---**
...going to do my best.
Just like you did, Miss Uiharu,
**[18:40] ---**
I'm going to do my best for Banri.
**[18:43] ---**
It's all right.
Knowing you, Miss Haru'ue,
**[18:47] ---**
I'm sure it will be all right.
**[18:51] ---**
Miss Uiharu...
**[18:58] ---**
Miss Haru'ue... You know...
you're making too much of it...
**[19:07] ---**
My, my, such children.
**[19:10] ---**
What are you gonna do?
**[19:11] ---**
Where's the harm?
**[19:26] ---**
I...
**[19:28] ---**
...wonder if I was any help to Miss Haru'ue.
**[19:32] ---**
What are you saying?
**[19:34] ---**
Isn't it obvious that you were?
**[19:36] ---**
Ee-yow!
**[19:37] ---**
And not just Miss Haru'ue, either.
**[19:40] ---**
Miss Uiharu, I think
you helped Miss Edasaki, too.
**[19:45] ---**
Miss Misaka...
**[19:46] ---**
Yes, and Sissy...
**[19:49] ---**
...you're of help to me!
**[19:51] ---**
Well, let's head home now!
**[19:52] ---**
Oh, right, there's a shortcut up ahead.
**[19:57] ---**
Hey, are you sure
this is the right way?
**[20:00] ---**
It's okay. Once we cut through here,
**[20:02] ---**
we'll be on the main road in no time.
**[20:04] ---**
You know, I'm surprised you
know these things.
**[20:07] ---**
Sissy? Is something the matter?
**[20:11] ---**
Is that...
**[20:14] ---**
Is that... a girl?
**[20:17] ---**
Huh?
**[20:19] ---**
Wow, she's cute!
**[20:22] ---**
Wait, this is not the time for that!
**[20:24] ---**
Ah, hold up, Kuroko!
**[20:33] ---**
She is opening her eyes!
**[20:35] ---**
Good morning. Why were
you sleeping in a place like this?
**[20:41] ---**
What is your name?
**[20:46] ---**
Um... okay, how old are you?
**[20:50] ---**
Tell me, where do you live?
What's your school?
**[20:54] ---**
Do you know your
homeroom teacher's name?
**[20:58] ---**
This is not working, is it?
**[21:00] ---**
Maybe she doesn't speak Japanese.
**[21:02] ---**
Oh, no, you're wrong, you're wrong.
**[21:05] ---**
When you talk to a little girl,
**[21:07] ---**
you have to come down
to their eye level, like this. Oh,
**[21:10] ---**
that looks like some tasty candy.
**[21:13] ---**
My name is Ruiko, okay?
**[21:17] ---**
What's yours?
Can you tell me your name?
**[21:25] ---**
Febrie.
**[21:27] ---**
Febrie, is it? Okay, Febrie,
**[21:31] ---**
anything goes, so tell
us whatever you know, okay?
**[21:37] ---**
Misaka Mikoto.
**[21:43] ---**
Huh?
**[21:50] ---**
*The world into which I'm
stepping is too big for me*
**[21:57] ---**
*Acting tough to camouflage my impatience
and anxiety, I overextended myself*
**[22:03] ---**
*My mind still up in the
air over answers I cannot find,*
**[22:10] ---**
*time rushes by with no time to even breathe*
**[22:17] ---**
*If we're stifled by the daily grind,*
**[22:23] ---**
*come on, let's take a deep breath,*
**[22:27] ---**
*and set out for the hilltop at
the end of the rainbow*
**[22:33] ---**
*We'll carve out another unforgettable day*
**[22:38] ---**
*For the fact that we met
(I thank you)*
**[22:43] ---**
*It surely is something precious*
**[22:46] ---**
*Let's face forward and start walking,
carrying forward to tomorrow*
**[22:52] ---**
*We've shared some smiles
(and I thank you)*
**[22:55] ---**
*Let's take our joys and sorrows*
**[22:59] ---**
*and share them together, over and over*
**[23:16] ---**
In this experiment,
**[23:18] ---**
we were able to
obtain the data we predicted
**[23:21] ---**
for the fourth-ranked Level 5, as well.
**[23:24] ---**
We did also have some unanticipated
circumstances occur on site,
**[23:28] ---**
but those should also be solved shortly.
**[23:31] ---**
Everything is ready. Now is
the time for us to show our power
**[23:36] ---**
to this town of esper supremacists.
**[23:39] ---**
Those in favor of moving
the project to the next phase,
**[23:42] ---**
raise your hands.

What's the story with this Febrie girl?
**[23:48] ---**
"#19 Academic Reach Assembly"
**[23:50] ---**
Why does she know my name?
**[23:52] ---**
Could she be lost?
**[23:53] ---**
What do we do?
**[23:54] ---**
We will decide at the Reach Assembly.

**[00:20] ---**
My name is Ruiko, okay?
**[00:23] ---**
What's yours?
Can you tell me your name?
**[00:31] ---**
Febrie.
**[00:33] ---**
Febrie, is it? Okay, Febrie,
**[00:37] ---**
anything goes, so tell us
whatever you know, okay?
**[00:44] ---**
Misaka Mikoto.
**[00:45] ---**
Huh?
**[00:47] ---**
Me?
**[00:48] ---**
Um... is she actually
someone you know, Misaka?
**[00:52] ---**
Nobody I can remember.
**[00:54] ---**
Perhaps a relative or
a cousin or something?
**[00:56] ---**
Do you happen to
have any half-sisters?
**[00:58] ---**
Now, look...
**[01:00] ---**
I've got plenty of them, already.
**[01:02] ---**
Ah! D-D-Do not tell me that
she is your own daughter, Sissy!
**[01:06] ---**
How could you possibly have done that?!
**[01:08] ---**
Especially when you have me--
**[01:10] ---**
Ee-yow...
**[01:13] ---**
I'm Misaka Mikoto.
How is it that you know my name?
**[01:27] ---**
Sure enough,
children can tell, can't they?
**[01:30] ---**
Who is safe,
and who is dangerous?
**[01:32] ---**
Wha--?!
**[01:36] ---**
I still have *this*!
**[01:38] ---**
A finger puppet?
**[01:39] ---**
It was the prize that
came with a soft drink.
**[01:41] ---**
I do not know how many cans
she had to drink before she got it.
**[01:45] ---**
I see you still like those things.
**[01:59] ---**
Yo, I'm Gekota!
**[02:03] ---**
Say, Febrie, there's something
I want you to tell me.
**[02:13] ---**
Ah! My pink Gekota!
**[02:15] ---**
There's only a 1-in-24 chance
of getting one per can!
**[02:18] ---**
Geez, do not shriek so disgracefully
over a lousy finger puppet.
**[02:26] ---**
Come on, now, Febrie. You can't
just carry it off without asking.
**[02:32] ---**
My goodness.
**[02:33] ---**
She sure is treating
you like a safety zone.
**[02:35] ---**
You know, that Gekota puppet
belongs to Big Sister Mikoto.
**[02:40] ---**
Let's give it back, okay?
**[02:42] ---**
No! It's mine!
**[02:47] ---**
Misaka?
**[02:52] ---**
Hmm...
**[02:54] ---**
Well, there isn't any
relevant information on her
**[02:56] ---**
under lost children or missing persons.
**[02:59] ---**
There isn't, huh?
**[03:00] ---**
At this hour, I can't reach
the person in charge at Antiskill.
**[03:05] ---**
This is a predicament, huh?
**[03:07] ---**
Well then, I can take
her in for tonight.
**[03:11] ---**
I mean, look.
**[03:14] ---**
I have a little brother, so I'm
used to caring for small children.
**[03:20] ---**
Well, I hate to impose, but would
you mind for just one night?
**[03:24] ---**
Just leave her to me!
**[03:27] ---**
Then again, my place *is* a tight fit,
**[03:30] ---**
and it might be tricky
handling her on my own.
**[03:34] ---**
What do you say, Uiharu?
Wanna give me a hand?
**[03:38] ---**
Yes!
**[03:42] ---**
*A shining hope runs its way
through the city, letting friends*
**[03:49] ---**
*who always believe in each other
join hands and follow their hearts*
**[03:56] ---**
*in an ongoing search for
a future they have faith in*
**[04:04] ---**
*Standing still amid
the hustle and bustle,*
**[04:07] ---**
*I watched as you faded into the distance*
**[04:10] ---**
*Because I now realize*
**[04:13] ---**
*the importance of sharing*
**[04:17] ---**
*Both the day and all of
us are wreathed in smiles*
**[04:23] ---**
*and I want to preserve
how normal that feels for us*
**[04:32] ---**
*When the sky resounds
with dreams kicking off*
**[04:39] ---**
*unshakable power starts seizing on reality*
**[04:45] ---**
*It's because you had the
strength to reveal your weakness*
**[04:52] ---**
*that I never forget, every single day,
to cherish the bonds between us*
**[04:58] ---**
*and head held high,
blaze a future to be proud of*
**[05:20] ---**
Hey, Uiharu, ready yet?
**[05:23] ---**
Yes!
**[05:29] ---**
My lolly...
**[05:30] ---**
Lolly?
**[05:34] ---**
Yes, it's right here.
**[05:39] ---**
Do you suppose
she might be hungry?
**[05:42] ---**
Hey, want to have some supper?
**[05:50] ---**
Boing, boing, boing!
**[05:56] ---**
Well, shall we get started, Mother?
**[05:59] ---**
Yes!
**[06:04] ---**
Thank you for this food!
**[06:09] ---**
What's the matter?
It's hamburger.
**[06:24] ---**
Is that good?
**[06:25] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[06:40] ---**
Okay, all right then,
close your eyes nice and tight.
**[06:45] ---**
Here goes!
**[06:49] ---**
Okay, Febrie, now it's your turn.
Will you spray some water on me?
**[06:53] ---**
Mm-hmm!
**[06:54] ---**
Whoa! Easy, now,
or you'll fall! Be careful--gah!
**[06:58] ---**
Ruiko, are you okay?
**[07:00] ---**
Oh, you little tomboy, you!
I'm gonna getcha!
**[07:08] ---**
Hey, hurry on in here!
**[07:11] ---**
Uiharu!
**[07:12] ---**
Whee-hah!
**[07:13] ---**
Okay!
**[07:26] ---**
"You got to know
when to fold 'em," Sissy.
**[07:29] ---**
I-I'm fine, really. It was a free prize,
**[07:32] ---**
and it's just one lousy
finger puppet... just one...
**[07:37] ---**
You do not sound at all fine.
**[07:41] ---**
I just have some things on my mind.
**[07:43] ---**
Like, how did she know my name?
**[07:48] ---**
And why was she so afraid of me?
**[07:50] ---**
My! Sissy, do not tell me you
were trying to gain that girl's favor?!
**[07:55] ---**
Is that what you are telling me, Sissy?!
**[07:59] ---**
I understand!
Having reached this juncture,
**[08:02] ---**
I, Shirai Kuroko,
will act on your behalf!
**[08:09] ---**
Goo-goo...
**[08:14] ---**
Hey, Shirai!
What's all that commotion?!
**[08:20] ---**
No, but really...
**[08:22] ---**
...why did that girl know my name?
**[08:36] ---**
She is a bit of an unusual girl, huh?
**[08:40] ---**
She's still cute, though.
**[08:41] ---**
Yes.
**[09:01] ---**
You're right, that is pretty intense.
**[09:04] ---**
See? It's remarkable, right?
**[09:08] ---**
I'm surprised she sucks
on those like it was nothing.
**[09:11] ---**
You're terrible, Miss Saten.
**[09:14] ---**
Last night, you made me taste one,
telling me it was "so delicious!"
**[09:18] ---**
I said I was sorry!
**[09:22] ---**
Is that good?
**[09:24] ---**
Mm-hmm!
**[09:25] ---**
Oh, my.
**[09:26] ---**
Good for you, Febrie!
**[09:38] ---**
Sure enough, there is
no data on her anywhere.
**[09:42] ---**
I put her information into the
database that takes queries
**[09:45] ---**
from missing persons
and lost child cases, myself,
**[09:48] ---**
but as of right now,
there has been no response.
**[09:51] ---**
Which would mean that
this girl might be a Child Error.
**[09:56] ---**
Oh, yeah.
**[09:58] ---**
Hello!
**[10:01] ---**
Miss Haru'ue!
**[10:03] ---**
Everything is settled in
from the move and whatnot,
**[10:06] ---**
so I came to say hi.
**[10:08] ---**
Well, well, so this is where she is.
**[10:18] ---**
My goodness, what a handful she is.
**[10:21] ---**
That girl is a Child Error?
**[10:24] ---**
That's right.
I've tried everything I could,
**[10:28] ---**
but I can't determine who she is.
**[10:30] ---**
It seems like all we can do now
**[10:32] ---**
is wait for someone from
an institution to come for her.
**[10:35] ---**
I hope she gets to go to a good one.
**[10:38] ---**
There are good ones and bad ones?
**[10:40] ---**
I've heard that bad things can happen,
depending on the facility.
**[10:44] ---**
Is it possible to choose
where she goes?
**[10:48] ---**
Hey, Uiharu, is there anywhere
that has rating and ranking data
**[10:52] ---**
on these institutions?
**[10:53] ---**
No, they don't really do that.
**[10:56] ---**
Oh, then...
**[10:58] ---**
I've got confirmation
from the other end.
**[11:01] ---**
It sounds like
they're willing to accept her.
**[11:03] ---**
Asunaro Park said okay!
**[11:08] ---**
It's a facility in School District 13.
**[11:10] ---**
We've dropped by there before,
**[11:12] ---**
and it's a place with
a very warm atmosphere.
**[11:16] ---**
However, there is one issue.
**[11:19] ---**
It will take at least five days
before they're ready to accept her.
**[11:22] ---**
That won't be any problem.
**[11:25] ---**
I will make sure to
look after her until then!
**[11:27] ---**
And I will back her up!
**[11:29] ---**
So will I, of course.
**[11:31] ---**
In that case, I shall assist, as well.
**[11:34] ---**
All right. I'll relay that to them.
**[11:42] ---**
Say, Febrie, would you mind
staying with us for a little while?
**[11:47] ---**
With you, Ruiko?
**[11:49] ---**
Yep! And everyone else, too.
**[11:52] ---**
With Whee-hah, too?
**[11:53] ---**
Yes.
**[11:54] ---**
And Kuroko, too?
**[11:56] ---**
Yeah.
**[11:59] ---**
And Mii, too?
**[12:01] ---**
Well of course, Febrie.
**[12:06] ---**
Five days, huh?
**[12:08] ---**
That means we can stay together
until the day of the Reach Assembly.
**[12:12] ---**
Oh, now that you mention it,
**[12:14] ---**
it is almost time for our on-site
security meeting, is it not?
**[12:18] ---**
Be sure to come and visit again, okay?
**[12:20] ---**
Sure. Next time, I'll bring Banri, too.
**[12:24] ---**
Goodbye now, Febrie.
**[12:27] ---**
Goodbye, Erii!
**[12:29] ---**
Huh?! Even Miss Haru'ue?!
**[12:39] ---**
I swear, I will get that
girl to call me by name!
**[12:41] ---**
"#19 Academic Reach Assembly"
**[12:47] ---**
Is this really where they're
holding the Reach Assembly?
**[12:51] ---**
Well, it is one of the sites, to be sure.
**[12:54] ---**
I have to say, it's--
how can I put it? Kind of dreary.
**[12:58] ---**
The Reach Assembly
is unrelated to abilities,
**[13:01] ---**
and is a place for presenting the
results of pure academic research,
**[13:05] ---**
so there is necessarily a lack of glitz.
**[13:08] ---**
It gets a little nerdy.
**[13:09] ---**
Oh, right.
**[13:12] ---**
You seem unusually disappointed.
What is it you were imagining?
**[13:17] ---**
Oh, you know. Something
with street stalls and lots of events,
**[13:21] ---**
and everyone pulling an all-nighter
getting ready, or something.
**[13:25] ---**
Ah, so *that's* why you came along.
**[13:28] ---**
If that were the case, I figured,
she wouldn't be bored by it.
**[13:32] ---**
Right?
**[13:33] ---**
Right?
**[13:34] ---**
Right.
**[13:34] ---**
H-How cute!
**[13:37] ---**
My, that wouldn't happen
to be Miss Misaka, would it?
**[13:41] ---**
Oh, you're right!
**[13:43] ---**
What a coincidence.
**[13:44] ---**
Huh? Why are you...?
**[13:46] ---**
Kongo Mitsuko...
What are *you* doing here?
**[13:49] ---**
Hello there. Nice to meet you.
**[13:52] ---**
My name is Awatsuki Ma'aya.
**[13:52] ---**
Oh, so Miss Wannai,
**[13:55] ---**
your senior is presenting
at the Reach Assembly.
**[13:57] ---**
Yes, and we are
here to help get her set up.
**[14:01] ---**
Miss Awatsuki and
I know her personally,
**[14:05] ---**
and Miss Kongo freely
volunteered to help as well.
**[14:09] ---**
There is no reason to pay any mind.
**[14:12] ---**
With me along,
we will be set up in mere moments.
**[14:19] ---**
Incidentally, Miss Misaka...
**[14:21] ---**
...is that young lady someone's
younger sister, or something?
**[14:24] ---**
Oh, mm-mm. It's kind of a long story.
**[14:28] ---**
Miss Kongo, this adorable young lady
says her name is Miss Febrie.
**[14:33] ---**
I have just gotten done
making friends with her.
**[14:39] ---**
In that case, by all means,
please be friends with me, as well.
**[14:43] ---**
My name is Kongo Mitsuko.
It is a pleasure to meet you, Miss Febrie.
**[14:48] ---**
Mm-hmm, my pleasure, Mitsuko.
**[14:51] ---**
I now have yet another friend!
**[14:54] ---**
A-And now, Miss Kongo, too...
**[14:58] ---**
Well, everyone, have a pleasant day.
**[15:01] ---**
Bye-bye!
**[15:02] ---**
Okay, we'll be
off to our meeting now.
**[15:06] ---**
We'll just have a look around at things.
**[15:08] ---**
Where is the meet-up spot again?
**[15:08] ---**
And then this time, I, too...
**[15:10] ---**
Let's see... Just a minute.
**[15:13] ---**
I'm sure it was... This place
is unnecessarily spread out, huh?
**[15:18] ---**
Oh yeah, Uiharu,
where would the bathroom be?
**[15:20] ---**
Well, it's...
Why don't I show you the way?
**[15:23] ---**
Mm-hmm, if you don't mind.
**[15:29] ---**
Ruiko...?
**[15:31] ---**
It's all right. I'll be
right back, so until then...
**[15:37] ---**
...would you wait with
Big Sister Mikoto for me?
**[15:42] ---**
I'm going to give you
some room, so while I'm gone...
**[15:49] ---**
Okay, wait there!
**[15:52] ---**
Come back soon!
**[15:57] ---**
Of all the...
**[15:58] ---**
This campus is
unnecessarily spread out.
**[16:01] ---**
We're going to need a
few more security personnel...
**[16:03] ---**
No, I'm sure this is where
it's supposed to be delivered.
**[16:07] ---**
On paper, that may be true.
**[16:08] ---**
It's just that we don't
have any authority to receive it.
**[16:12] ---**
Some kind of problem?
**[16:14] ---**
Apparently, this delivery
is here for the Reach Assembly.
**[16:17] ---**
But the student who is
supposed to accept it isn't here yet.
**[16:21] ---**
This school is a regular
prizewinner at the Reach Assembly.
**[16:24] ---**
Yes, it is. Most of
the other regular schools
**[16:28] ---**
haven't shown up yet this year,
either here or at the other sites.
**[16:32] ---**
Hmm...
**[16:33] ---**
Huh?
**[16:36] ---**
What's the matter?
**[16:38] ---**
Oh, I thought I spotted someone
from one of those regular schools.
**[16:44] ---**
I have arrived at the site.
**[16:46] ---**
The package appears to
have been safely brought in as well.
**[16:49] ---**
Acknowledged.
**[16:51] ---**
All right, I'll contact you
again once I locate the target.
**[16:58] ---**
Febrie, are you hungry?
**[17:02] ---**
Well, you want something to drink?
**[17:05] ---**
Ah, look, Febrie!
Those flowers are awfully pretty!
**[17:10] ---**
What's keeping Ruiko?
**[17:12] ---**
She truly is a tough customer.
**[17:14] ---**
I thought I was the sort
that children took a liking to, too.
**[17:20] ---**
Mm-mm, I am *not* going
to let this discourage me.
**[17:23] ---**
At this point, I don't care
if it does get taken from me--
**[17:26] ---**
...the super-rare,
only-1-in-every-60-cans rainbow Gekota!
**[17:32] ---**
Look, Febrie!
**[17:38] ---**
Don't tell me...
**[17:40] ---**
Febrie!
**[17:57] ---**
Whoo! Man, having a job is a real drag.
**[18:05] ---**
Wow! What a cute little girl you are!
**[18:11] ---**
What happened?
**[18:14] ---**
Gekota...
**[18:26] ---**
I'm sorry! I just took my
eyes off of her for a second!
**[18:29] ---**
It's all right.
She couldn't have gotten too far.
**[18:33] ---**
I'll look for her, too.
**[18:34] ---**
Yes, please!
**[18:36] ---**
Febrie!
**[18:45] ---**
Miss Misaka?!
**[18:50] ---**
Ruiko... Whee-hah... Kuroko...
Mii... Where are you?
**[19:00] ---**
Target located.
**[19:05] ---**
There she is!
**[19:13] ---**
Erii... Mitsuko...
**[19:16] ---**
Febrie!
**[19:45] ---**
Is that...?
**[19:55] ---**
Thank goodness!
**[20:11] ---**
Huh?
**[20:13] ---**
Ruiko!
**[20:18] ---**
Even so, I'm glad she's safe.
**[20:23] ---**
No doubt about it. It's her.
**[20:28] ---**
So that is what happened.
**[20:30] ---**
It's a good thing
nothing bad happened, huh?
**[20:33] ---**
It was my fault for
taking my eyes off of her.
**[20:36] ---**
I really am sorry, Miss Saten.
**[20:38] ---**
I should apologize, as well.
**[20:41] ---**
I'm so sorry.
**[20:42] ---**
But...
**[20:44] ---**
Come on, Febrie, you too. You made
Big Sister Mikoto very worried,
**[20:48] ---**
so now you have to apologize.
**[20:53] ---**
Febrie...
**[21:03] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[21:10] ---**
Thank you, Mikoto!
**[21:16] ---**
Hey! Wait up, Febrie!
**[21:19] ---**
No!
**[21:20] ---**
Wait up, wait up!
**[21:22] ---**
It looks like at some point along
the line, they became good friends.
**[21:25] ---**
I am glad that they
are enjoying themselves.
**[21:28] ---**
Which means that
it was worth the trouble
**[21:30] ---**
that I, Kongo Mitsuko, went to.
**[21:32] ---**
Oh, dear, Miss Kongo,
**[21:34] ---**
it is so ungraceful of you to
take all the credit upon yourself.
**[21:38] ---**
I-I really was helpful this time around!
**[21:42] ---**
There you go again!
**[21:43] ---**
It is the absolute truth!
**[21:44] ---**
Yes, yes, I know it is!
**[21:45] ---**
I swear it is true!
**[21:49] ---**
There are only seven Level 5s
here in Academy City.
**[21:54] ---**
To think that in addition
to the fourth-ranked,
**[21:55] ---**
we would be able to experiment
on the third-ranked, as well...
**[21:58] ---**
There is nothing else
we can call this but good luck.
**[22:02] ---**
Well then, as always,
let's put it to a vote.
**[22:05] ---**
Those in favor of conducting
the experiment on Railgun,
**[22:08] ---**
raise your hand.
**[22:11] ---**
Of course,
**[22:12] ---**
I am in favor, as well.
**[22:23] ---**
*The world into which I'm
stepping is too big for me*
**[22:30] ---**
*Acting tough to camouflage my impatience
and anxiety, I overextended myself*
**[22:36] ---**
*My mind still up in the
air over answers I cannot find,*
**[22:43] ---**
*time rushes by with no time to even breathe*
**[22:50] ---**
*If we're stifled by the daily grind,*
**[22:56] ---**
*come on, let's take a deep breath,*
**[23:00] ---**
*and set out for the hilltop at
the end of the rainbow*
**[23:06] ---**
*We'll carve out another unforgettable day*
**[23:11] ---**
*For the fact that we met
(I thank you)*
**[23:16] ---**
*It surely is something precious*
**[23:19] ---**
*Let's face forward and start walking,
carrying forward to tomorrow*
**[23:25] ---**
*We've shared some smiles
(and I thank you)*
**[23:28] ---**
*Let's take our joys and sorrows*
**[23:32] ---**
*and share them together, over and over*

Whee-hah and Kuroko and..."

Who is it that let her handle the preview?

And what's worse, she's sucking her lollipop.

**[00:20] ---**
I've gotta say,
**[00:22] ---**
having security robots
malfunction like this
**[00:24] ---**
is a real black eye for Antiskill.
**[00:26] ---**
Still, luckily for everyone,
it didn't turn too serious.
**[00:29] ---**
Hmm, that's weird, all right.
**[00:33] ---**
What is the matter?
**[00:35] ---**
Oh, nothing.
**[00:36] ---**
These security robots
were just brought in,
**[00:38] ---**
and their main batteries
haven't been installed yet.
**[00:41] ---**
You say they don't have their batteries?
**[00:43] ---**
That's right.
Never mind malfunctioning,
**[00:46] ---**
they shouldn't be able
to run at all like this.
**[00:49] ---**
I wonder if there was some
residual in the auxiliary battery.
**[00:55] ---**
*A shining hope runs its way
through the city, letting friends*
**[01:01] ---**
*who always believe in each other
join hands and follow their hearts*
**[01:08] ---**
*in an ongoing search for
a future they have faith in*
**[01:16] ---**
*Standing still amid
the hustle and bustle,*
**[01:19] ---**
*I watched as you faded into the distance*
**[01:22] ---**
*Because I now realize*
**[01:26] ---**
*the importance of sharing*
**[01:29] ---**
*Both the day and all of
us are wreathed in smiles*
**[01:35] ---**
*and I want to preserve
how normal that feels for us*
**[01:44] ---**
*When the sky resounds
with dreams kicking off*
**[01:51] ---**
*unshakable power starts seizing on reality*
**[01:57] ---**
*It's because you had the
strength to reveal your weakness*
**[02:04] ---**
*that I never forget, every single day,
to cherish the bonds between us*
**[02:10] ---**
*and head held high,
blaze a future to be proud of*
**[02:24] ---**
Okay, I guess you can't do anything.
Mm-hmm, all right.
**[02:28] ---**
Okay then.
**[02:30] ---**
It sounds like Uiharu
and Shirai will be a while,
**[02:32] ---**
investigating the scene and so forth.
**[02:33] ---**
She said to please go on without them.
**[02:35] ---**
Listen, Febrie,
**[02:36] ---**
how about this one?
**[02:39] ---**
Want to trade that pink
Gekota for this red Gekota?
**[02:42] ---**
This one is cute, too, right? See? See?
**[02:45] ---**
No.
**[02:47] ---**
Well then, what about
together with this blue Gekota?
**[02:50] ---**
And hey, I'll even
throw in this yellow Gekota!
**[02:52] ---**
This is my Gekota!
**[02:57] ---**
The way she's chipping away at this,
it really could become hers.
**[03:01] ---**
Out of all of them,
**[03:02] ---**
she's got the precious pink Gekota,
which I only have one of!
**[03:07] ---**
If it has to come to this...
**[03:09] ---**
Oh, Misaka, are you still at that?
**[03:12] ---**
Oh, Miss Misaka...
**[03:14] ---**
Are you leaving?
**[03:16] ---**
Hello.
**[03:17] ---**
Miss Kongo!
**[03:19] ---**
Mitsuko!
**[03:21] ---**
Oh, my, you certainly
are in good spirits, huh?
**[03:24] ---**
You really came through earlier.
**[03:26] ---**
Miss Kongo,
if you hadn't spotted Febrie,
**[03:28] ---**
who knows what
would have happened?
**[03:30] ---**
Thank you so very much.
**[03:32] ---**
Go on, Febrie,
you should thank her, too.
**[03:37] ---**
Thank you, Mitsuko!
**[03:40] ---**
O-Oh my, a thank-you?
I only did what was right.
**[03:46] ---**
Oh, yeah, we're all
going out for some tea now.
**[03:49] ---**
Would you like to join us?
**[03:51] ---**
Wow, have some tea together?
**[03:53] ---**
Oh... Though I appreciate
your kind invitation,
**[03:56] ---**
I still have to help
out with things here.
**[03:59] ---**
Not at all. It's quite all right, Miss Kongo.
**[04:02] ---**
Yes, we can manage the rest on our own.
**[04:05] ---**
What are you talking about?
Casting aside helping out my friends
**[04:09] ---**
is not something that I,
Kongo Mitsuko, could do!
**[04:15] ---**
Mitsuko! Wanna! A-tsuki! Bye-bye!
**[04:19] ---**
Have a pleasant day!
**[04:20] ---**
Be careful!
**[04:21] ---**
Mm-hmm!
**[04:23] ---**
Well, we should be off, as well.
**[04:27] ---**
Huh?
**[04:33] ---**
Isn't that...?
**[04:36] ---**
It is so exciting to already
be able to test the data
**[04:38] ---**
that we acquired on
the 4th-ranked the other day.
**[04:41] ---**
I would have liked to
have more time to prepare,
**[04:45] ---**
but I guess we can't
ask for everything, huh?
**[04:46] ---**
Well now, I wonder what
kind of data we will get this time.
**[04:52] ---**
I do hope we will be
provided with some entertainment...
**[04:55] ---**
by Tokiwadai's Railgun.
**[05:02] ---**
The Reach Assembly's posters
are even put up in here, huh?
**[05:06] ---**
So, what did you think,
having actually seen the location?
**[05:10] ---**
I could ask myself, too.
I've never actually been to one before.
**[05:14] ---**
Hmm, it seems like it would be nice,
**[05:16] ---**
having a field of specialty
that you can throw yourself into.
**[05:19] ---**
Maybe I should
research something, too.
**[05:22] ---**
Like, say, urban legends!
**[05:24] ---**
I don't know about that.
**[05:25] ---**
Huh? No good?
**[05:27] ---**
Thanks for waiting.
**[05:29] ---**
Oh, here it comes, Febrie.
**[05:30] ---**
Here is your special ice cream.
**[05:40] ---**
Oh, you can't eat like that, can you?
**[05:43] ---**
I guess I have no choice but
to hold that Gekota for you. Here.
**[05:48] ---**
(Ah)
**[05:49] ---**
Oh, you spoiled little girl.
**[05:52] ---**
Here.
**[05:55] ---**
Yum!
**[05:56] ---**
(Ah)
**[05:57] ---**
Okay, okay.
**[06:01] ---**
Whoo, finished at last.
**[06:03] ---**
We never did find out the cause
behind the security robot incident.
**[06:07] ---**
Come to think of it,
**[06:08] ---**
the cause of yesterday's signal
trouble was also unknown, huh?
**[06:12] ---**
A rash of mysterious mechanical trouble?
**[06:15] ---**
I'll bet Miss Saten
would enjoy this tale, huh?
**[06:18] ---**
Yeah.
**[06:19] ---**
Say, do you two have some time?
**[06:21] ---**
Is that good?
**[06:22] ---**
Mm-hmm. I want more.
**[06:25] ---**
All right, all right.
**[06:26] ---**
Hello? Oh, Kuroko...
**[06:29] ---**
Huh? Miss Konori?
**[06:33] ---**
You really like this, huh?
**[06:35] ---**
Isn't it great? Nothing beats
this when you're tired.
**[06:39] ---**
Right, Febrie?
**[06:42] ---**
Febrie, this place, you see,
has a bathtub *this* big inside.
**[06:47] ---**
Let's all get in together, okay?
**[06:49] ---**
It's so much fun!
**[06:49] ---**
Yes...
**[06:50] ---**
I have always dreamed
about sharing a bath with Sissy.
**[06:54] ---**
Just leave it to me, Sissy!
I will see to it
**[06:58] ---**
that every last inch of your
body is washed clean for you.
**[07:01] ---**
Every last inch...
Yes, every nook and cranny!
**[07:04] ---**
Tee-hee
**[07:06] ---**
Okay, let's go, Febrie.
**[07:07] ---**
Yay!
**[07:08] ---**
♪ Bathtime! Bathtime! Bathtime! ♪
**[07:11] ---**
I-I cannot allow my moment of
bliss to flee over something like this!
**[07:15] ---**
Showtime!
**[07:17] ---**
Ah, Shirai...
**[07:19] ---**
You're here, too, huh?
**[07:20] ---**
Uh-oh...
**[07:25] ---**
That tickles.
**[07:27] ---**
Hey, Febrie, stop fidgeting.
**[07:31] ---**
Yes, that's my girl!
**[07:33] ---**
Those two are like
peas in a pod, aren't they?
**[07:35] ---**
Yes, they are.
**[07:37] ---**
Isn't this great, Misaka?
**[07:39] ---**
Huh?
**[07:40] ---**
You've got yourself
an adorable little sister.
**[07:42] ---**
Oh, what are you talking about?
**[07:47] ---**
Younger sister, huh?
**[07:49] ---**
There! All clean, all clean!
**[07:52] ---**
H-Hey! When did you...
**[07:54] ---**
Hey, Gekota, stop fidgeting.
**[07:57] ---**
Is she imitating Misaka, do you think?
**[07:59] ---**
She really does
make a cute little sister.
**[08:01] ---**
Yes, she does.
**[08:04] ---**
Gekota, that feels good, huh?
**[08:06] ---**
There, there, sit still, okay?
**[08:10] ---**
Good girl, good girl, good girl!
**[08:15] ---**
Oh, you're a good girl!
**[08:16] ---**
Say, Febrie, do you like Gekota?
**[08:19] ---**
Mm-hmm, I do!
**[08:21] ---**
Okay. In that case,
I'll give that one to you.
**[08:26] ---**
Take good care of it, okay?
**[08:28] ---**
Promise me?
**[08:29] ---**
Mm-hmm! Thank you, Mikoto!
**[08:32] ---**
But Gekota has
always been my Gekota.
**[08:36] ---**
All right, now it's
*my* turn to wash Misaka.
**[08:40] ---**
In that case,
let's all wash each other.
**[08:44] ---**
Isn't this nice?
**[08:45] ---**
Huh? Not you too, Miss Konori!
**[08:48] ---**
Sissy... Ah, Paradise
is just over there...!
**[08:52] ---**
A Paradise for me alone!
**[08:56] ---**
Your hands have stopped.
**[08:58] ---**
Can't you rub any harder, Shirai?
**[09:01] ---**
Yes...
**[09:04] ---**
Well, I'm headed this way, so...
**[09:07] ---**
Tomorrow, then.
**[09:08] ---**
Right. If you'll excuse us...
**[09:10] ---**
Good work today!
**[09:11] ---**
Come on, let's go, Kuroko.
**[09:13] ---**
My bath together...
My bath together with Sissy...
**[09:18] ---**
Why won't time turn back for me?
**[09:22] ---**
Kuroko, what are you doing?
**[09:27] ---**
Ruiko...
**[09:28] ---**
Okay, okay.
**[09:29] ---**
Getting you all warmed up
made you sleepy, huh?
**[09:40] ---**
Your back has become reserved seating,
**[09:43] ---**
huh, Miss Saten?
**[09:47] ---**
But that will be all
over in five more days.
**[09:50] ---**
And after we've
become such good friends, too.
**[09:53] ---**
Well, it's not like
we'll never see her again.
**[09:57] ---**
Do not become lonesome for her, Sissy.
**[10:00] ---**
I-I wasn't going to.
**[10:02] ---**
Gekota...
**[10:07] ---**
Well, maybe a little.
**[10:10] ---**
When Febrie goes to Asunaro Park,
let's all go visit her together.
**[10:14] ---**
Yeah, sure!
**[10:16] ---**
But this time, I'll be careful not
to let my Gekota puppets be taken.
**[10:20] ---**
Oh, come on, Misaka!
**[10:22] ---**
What is the big deal?
You have so many of them!
**[10:24] ---**
Hey, it's not that easy to get them!
**[10:25] ---**
"Sidewalk Closed"
**[10:27] ---**
Huh? We can't cross here?
**[10:30] ---**
Oh, well. We'll just
cross at the next one.
**[10:34] ---**
"Detour"
**[10:35] ---**
Huh?
**[10:36] ---**
Here, as well?
**[10:38] ---**
It's quite a long way around,
but since there's construction,
**[10:40] ---**
we don't have much choice.
**[10:42] ---**
What a bother.
**[10:48] ---**
Huh?
**[10:49] ---**
We cannot...
detour through here, can we?
**[10:52] ---**
We came exactly where the
detour said to, right?
**[10:55] ---**
I thought we did.
**[10:56] ---**
I'll check on my GPS.
**[10:59] ---**
Huh? I've got missed
calls from Miss Kongo.
**[11:02] ---**
From Kongo Mitsuko?
**[11:03] ---**
Oh, so do I.
**[11:05] ---**
Wow, this many?
**[11:07] ---**
This was right when we were in
the tub, so I guess we didn't notice.
**[11:10] ---**
I wonder if it was something urgent.
**[11:16] ---**
What was that?
**[11:25] ---**
Now, the experiment begins.
**[11:26] ---**
"#20 Febrie"
**[11:36] ---**
Wha--?
**[11:47] ---**
Get back!
**[11:51] ---**
Misaka!
**[11:52] ---**
I don't know...
**[11:55] ---**
...who you are...
**[11:57] ---**
...but did you think something
like this would work against me?!
**[12:08] ---**
Sissy!
**[12:09] ---**
Kuroko! Keep out of this!
**[12:11] ---**
Miss Misaka!
**[12:13] ---**
I'm unable to control it?
**[12:15] ---**
It's not using shields
or anything. For that matter,
**[12:17] ---**
it doesn't have
any electrical systems at all!
**[12:20] ---**
Just like the simulations.
Well then, next up...
**[12:23] ---**
How is it moving?
**[12:35] ---**
I'm not sure what's going on,
**[12:37] ---**
but from the looks of it, this is
the type that has someone inside.
**[12:42] ---**
Geez, what a pain in the neck!
**[12:51] ---**
Oh, no! Miss Saten!
**[12:55] ---**
Miss Saten!
**[12:57] ---**
Uiharu, contact Antiskill!
**[12:59] ---**
All right!
**[13:02] ---**
Huh? How come?!
**[13:04] ---**
What is the matter?
**[13:05] ---**
My cell isn't getting through!
**[13:07] ---**
Huh? What do you mean?
**[13:11] ---**
Febrie!
**[13:13] ---**
Hey, it's dangerous here, you know!
**[13:15] ---**
What are you doing? Come on, quickly!
**[13:28] ---**
What's the matter?!
**[13:32] ---**
It stopped...
**[13:34] ---**
Dossei!
**[13:46] ---**
That is about the size of it,
when confronted with me!
**[13:49] ---**
Miss Kongo!
**[13:51] ---**
What are *you* doing here?!
**[13:53] ---**
Wherever Kongo's friends are,
there shall she be!
**[13:56] ---**
But never mind that,
what is going on here?
**[13:58] ---**
Yeah.
**[13:59] ---**
Just who would
pull something like this?
**[14:04] ---**
What... is this?
**[14:07] ---**
It's empty?
**[14:09] ---**
What's going on?
**[14:10] ---**
Febrie!
**[14:12] ---**
What's the matter?! Wake up!
**[14:17] ---**
Febrie!
**[14:19] ---**
This was within our assumptions.
**[14:22] ---**
Sure enough,
our calculations were correct.
**[14:26] ---**
Febrie! Are you all right?! Febrie!
**[14:29] ---**
I-Is she hurt anywhere?
**[14:30] ---**
C-Call an ambulance!
**[14:32] ---**
But our cell phones are not--
**[14:35] ---**
The signal is getting through?
**[14:37] ---**
Then please hurry up
and call someone!
**[14:39] ---**
R-Right, I will.
**[14:44] ---**
It's you guys again?
**[14:47] ---**
I wish you could have seen it!
**[14:49] ---**
My heroic exploits!
When that robot was closing in,
**[14:52] ---**
I plucked it up and tossed it,
I plucked it up and tossed it!
**[14:55] ---**
So no pilot, and no battery.
We don't know what's going on,
**[14:59] ---**
same as the security robots this afternoon.
**[15:01] ---**
It's true! If you'll check the
surveillance cameras around here,
**[15:04] ---**
you can see that.
**[15:06] ---**
It's not as though I doubt you.
**[15:09] ---**
But none of the surveillance cameras
**[15:12] ---**
recorded anything out of the ordinary.
**[15:14] ---**
The surveillance cameras?
**[15:16] ---**
Come to think of it,
our cell phones weren't working
**[15:18] ---**
before we called the ambulance, either.
**[15:20] ---**
For the time being, leave this up to us.
**[15:22] ---**
But...
**[15:23] ---**
Your friend was taken to the hospital, right?
Hurry and go to her.
**[15:28] ---**
All right. Uiharu...
**[15:30] ---**
R-Right.
**[15:31] ---**
Okay then...
**[15:32] ---**
Yeah.
**[15:35] ---**
For Pete's sake,
what is going on here?
**[15:43] ---**
Here we go.
**[15:48] ---**
What is this?
**[15:49] ---**
"Mizuho Systems Hospital"
**[15:51] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[15:52] ---**
Mm-hmm, all right. Bye.
**[15:56] ---**
Kuroko says they'll be here shortly.
**[15:59] ---**
It didn't look like
she was injured or anything.
**[16:01] ---**
Febrie is gonna be fine, right?
**[16:11] ---**
For crying out loud,
worrying us all like this...
**[16:14] ---**
Once she wakes up,
I'll be, "What's the big idea?"
**[16:22] ---**
Febrie!
**[16:23] ---**
Doctor, um...
**[16:24] ---**
Her fever has not gone down,
**[16:26] ---**
and she has still not
regained consciousness.
**[16:29] ---**
I don't know why
her condition is worsening,
**[16:31] ---**
and to be honest, I'm stumped.
**[16:33] ---**
Anyhow, there's nothing
more we can do for her here.
**[16:36] ---**
We're going to move her
to a larger hospital at once.
**[16:39] ---**
Febrie...
**[16:43] ---**
This is yours, right?
Hold onto it tight.
**[16:56] ---**
We now know that our research
**[16:58] ---**
works more than well
enough against Railgun.
**[17:02] ---**
It's a shame the experiment
was brought to a halt that way, though.
**[17:06] ---**
That's what it is to bite
the hand that feeds one, huh?
**[17:09] ---**
But with today's data,
the program will be even more accurate.
**[17:13] ---**
Indeed, all thanks
to the great 3rd-ranked.
**[17:17] ---**
We have now demonstrated one more thing--
**[17:20] ---**
the incapability of those
who must rely on their abilities.
**[17:25] ---**
This indeed is the great
inconsistency of Academy City.
**[17:28] ---**
Now then, let us take a vote.
**[17:32] ---**
This is concerning Febrie's disposition...
**[17:40] ---**
This is taking a while, huh?
**[17:44] ---**
Then again, what was that thing?
**[17:47] ---**
If that thing hadn't shown up,
**[17:49] ---**
Febrie wouldn't be in this...
**[17:52] ---**
I don't know who these guys are,
**[17:55] ---**
but that thing came after *me*.
**[17:59] ---**
It's because of me...
**[18:01] ---**
...that once again, someone else
has been dragged into something.
**[18:07] ---**
Sissy?
**[18:11] ---**
Kuroko! Miss Uiharu!
**[18:13] ---**
How is Febrie doing?
**[18:15] ---**
Well, we don't know yet.
**[18:16] ---**
Is that right?
**[18:18] ---**
How about you?
**[18:19] ---**
Oh, Antiskill has ended up
taking over the investigation.
**[18:23] ---**
But right now, we don't have
anything approaching any leads.
**[18:26] ---**
By the way,
**[18:27] ---**
why did you follow us here?!
**[18:30] ---**
Why, you ask? Because I am
concerned about Febrie, of course!
**[18:35] ---**
Looks like you helped me out
again, huh? Thanks, Miss Kongo.
**[18:38] ---**
Oh, by the way,
you tried to call us earlier.
**[18:41] ---**
That's right!
**[18:42] ---**
There is something
I wanted to tell you all.
**[18:45] ---**
There is danger closing in on Febrie!
**[18:49] ---**
Earlier, I recognized a man
near the Reach Assembly location.
**[18:53] ---**
But then...
**[18:55] ---**
That's...
**[18:57] ---**
What do you plan to do?
**[18:59] ---**
I just want to have a
brief word with that gentleman.
**[19:02] ---**
He seems to have gotten the wrong
idea of who you are, Miss Kongo.
**[19:06] ---**
Yes, I'm sure if we speak to
him, he will understand.
**[19:09] ---**
Huh? But...
**[19:11] ---**
The target is on the move. Right.
**[19:14] ---**
We may have failed to retrieve Febrie,
**[19:16] ---**
but imagine,
getting such a byproduct.
**[19:20] ---**
Hmm? Yeah, send them my way, please.
**[19:24] ---**
We should be able to
obtain some interesting results.
**[19:26] ---**
Febrie was being targeted?
**[19:28] ---**
But we couldn't reach any of you.
**[19:32] ---**
We had no choice but
to split up and search for you,
**[19:34] ---**
when by chance...
**[19:36] ---**
Excuse me a moment, would you?
**[19:38] ---**
Hello? Oh, Miss Wannai
and Miss Awatsuki!
**[19:43] ---**
Oh, I'm so sorry.
I completely forgot to call you two.
**[19:48] ---**
Yes, I managed to find
Miss Misaka and the others.
**[19:50] ---**
Febrie, too. However...
Huh? Me? I am all right.
**[19:55] ---**
Those two must be worried
about you. We are fine here.
**[20:00] ---**
I won't hear of it!
**[20:02] ---**
Oh, I'm sorry.
I wasn't talking to you.
**[20:05] ---**
You must be exhausted
after searching for so long.
**[20:09] ---**
Oh, no! In that event,
I will come to you!
**[20:12] ---**
No, really, you need not worry.
**[20:18] ---**
Well then,
**[20:19] ---**
I really hate to leave,
but I must be going.
**[20:23] ---**
But if anything comes up,
please tell me, okay?
**[20:27] ---**
We are Febrie's friends,
too, after all.
**[20:30] ---**
Mm-hmm. Thanks.
**[20:34] ---**
What does what
she told us earlier mean?
**[20:37] ---**
Recovering Febrie? What on earth?
**[20:40] ---**
"Recovering," of all words.
Febrie is not a "thing."
**[21:01] ---**
Ladies...
**[21:09] ---**
Febrie!
**[21:12] ---**
Ah, Mikoto!
**[21:14] ---**
Are you okay, Febrie?
**[21:16] ---**
Hmm? Okay?
**[21:17] ---**
Febrie, you suddenly collapsed,
and we were all worried about you.
**[21:22] ---**
Gekota, are you okay?
**[21:25] ---**
Huh?
**[21:26] ---**
Apparently, you are doing just fine, huh?
**[21:29] ---**
Hmm?
**[21:32] ---**
May I have a moment?
**[21:35] ---**
Are you sure you
don't feel hurt anywhere?
**[21:38] ---**
I don't hurt!
**[21:39] ---**
Thank goodness!
**[21:39] ---**
Okay, okay.
**[21:40] ---**
Um, thank you very much.
**[21:43] ---**
Not at all. I didn't do anything.
**[21:46] ---**
Huh? But...
**[21:48] ---**
I am not able to fix her up, you see.
**[21:51] ---**
Fix her up? What do you mean?
**[21:54] ---**
You don't mean she has
a serious illness, do you?
**[21:56] ---**
No. If she had some
human illness, I could cure her.
**[22:04] ---**
But that girl is not human.
**[22:08] ---**
She is a
100-percent-scientifically-created...
**[22:12] ---**
...artificial construction.
**[22:16] ---**
Huh?
**[22:23] ---**
*The world into which I'm
stepping is too big for me*
**[22:30] ---**
*Acting tough to camouflage my impatience
and anxiety, I overextended myself*
**[22:36] ---**
*My mind still up in the
air over answers I cannot find,*

"#21 Darkness"
**[23:50] ---**
I only did what any friend would do!
**[23:52] ---**
I was concerned for Febrie!

Next time, Kongo acts to save the world!

Oh, you do not either!

**[00:19] ---**
An artificial construction? Febrie?
**[00:23] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[00:25] ---**
You mean, she's a
man-made, fabricated person?
**[00:30] ---**
That's right.
**[00:31] ---**
No way, she couldn't be.
**[00:33] ---**
That would be what you'd
usually think, I suppose.
**[00:37] ---**
Common sense will tell you
that such a thing is impossible.
**[00:40] ---**
However,
**[00:41] ---**
sometimes, man tries to overstep
the bounds of common sense.
**[00:45] ---**
You should be able to
understand that, shouldn't you?
**[00:52] ---**
When I analyzed the proteins
that her body is composed of,
**[00:57] ---**
I ascertained that they did
not exist in the natural world.
**[01:02] ---**
She does not seem to be aware
that she is not a normal person, though.
**[01:08] ---**
Of course, you can't
tell just by looking at her.
**[01:11] ---**
Her own body's functions
are comparable to yours or mine.
**[01:16] ---**
The only problem is...
**[01:19] ---**
...every time that she forms new cells,
**[01:23] ---**
she produces a certain
amount of toxin, as well.
**[01:28] ---**
Toxin?
**[01:29] ---**
Yes, and if left alone,
it will accumulate in her body,
**[01:32] ---**
causing her internal
organs to shut down,
**[01:36] ---**
resulting in death.
**[01:37] ---**
Who, her?!
But right now, she's fine--
**[01:40] ---**
That's because of her candy.
**[01:42] ---**
It includes a component
which neutralizes the toxin.
**[01:45] ---**
It would be fair to say that
they are what's keeping her alive.
**[01:50] ---**
She has to keep sucking that candy,
or she can't go on living?
**[01:54] ---**
If you ask me why this is
happening, I couldn't tell you.
**[01:59] ---**
It could be a technical problem,
or it could be deliberate.
**[02:03] ---**
Either way,
**[02:05] ---**
if anyone can keep her
body working in its normal state,
**[02:08] ---**
it would have to be
the people who created her.
**[02:13] ---**
But who? Who created Febrie?
**[02:17] ---**
And for what reason?!
Are the powers that be in this city
**[02:20] ---**
starting up some
ridiculous experiment again?!
**[02:25] ---**
I heard stories about
research being carried on
**[02:28] ---**
to scientifically create
a person a number of years ago.
**[02:33] ---**
But then all of a sudden,
I stopped hearing those rumors.
**[02:38] ---**
Then, Febrie was
made from that research?
**[02:41] ---**
At the time, the underworld was
involved in the research.
**[02:45] ---**
The underworld?
**[02:46] ---**
There are a number of dark
organizations within Academy City,
**[02:50] ---**
which not even Antiskill can touch,
**[02:52] ---**
and whose existence remains unknown.
**[02:55] ---**
The work I do is for the underworld.
**[02:57] ---**
Do you think you can do anything
about the "darkness" of this town
**[03:00] ---**
by fighting like you're
on the playground?!
**[03:03] ---**
If you want to save the girl,
**[03:06] ---**
it will be necessary for you to
be prepared to face the darkness.
**[03:12] ---**
Are you ready to do that?
**[03:17] ---**
*A shining hope runs its way
through the city, letting friends*
**[03:23] ---**
*who always believe in each other
join hands and follow their hearts*
**[03:30] ---**
*in an ongoing search for
a future they have faith in*
**[03:38] ---**
*Standing still amid
the hustle and bustle,*
**[03:41] ---**
*I watched as you faded into the distance*
**[03:44] ---**
*Because I now realize*
**[03:48] ---**
*the importance of sharing*
**[03:51] ---**
*Both the day and all of
us are wreathed in smiles*
**[03:57] ---**
*and I want to preserve
how normal that feels for us*
**[04:06] ---**
*When the sky resounds
with dreams kicking off*
**[04:13] ---**
*unshakable power starts seizing on reality*
**[04:19] ---**
*It's because you had the
strength to reveal your weakness*
**[04:26] ---**
*that I never forget, every single day,
to cherish the bonds between us*
**[04:32] ---**
*and head held high,
blaze a future to be proud of*
**[04:45] ---**
Ge-ge-geko!
**[04:48] ---**
I'm Gekota!
**[04:49] ---**
Geko-geko-geko!
**[04:51] ---**
Ah, Miss Misaka!
What did he talk to you about?
**[04:54] ---**
Oh...
**[04:56] ---**
Mm-mm, he said there
was nothing more to worry about,
**[04:59] ---**
so we could leave.
**[05:01] ---**
Is that right?
**[05:02] ---**
Thank goodness!
**[05:03] ---**
Febrie, want to go home?
**[05:05] ---**
With you?
**[05:06] ---**
Mm-hmm, and Uiharu, too.
**[05:08] ---**
Mm-hmm!
**[05:11] ---**
But then, if we go back to my dorm,
**[05:13] ---**
couldn't they come attacking again?
**[05:15] ---**
Yes, you're right.
I'll contact Antiskill,
**[05:18] ---**
and have them ramp up their patrols.
**[05:21] ---**
Mm-hmm, right.
**[05:25] ---**
It's all the way back
to morning again.
**[05:27] ---**
Febrie, are you hungry?
**[05:32] ---**
Hamburgers!
**[05:34] ---**
You really like them that much?
**[05:36] ---**
Isn't that nice?
**[05:37] ---**
Sissy, something is the matter, huh?
**[05:41] ---**
Ever since you came back
from talking to the doctor,
**[05:44] ---**
your face has looked a little pale.
**[05:47] ---**
Y-You think so?
**[05:51] ---**
A cat?
**[05:53] ---**
What is it doing here?
**[06:00] ---**
Huh?
**[06:02] ---**
Oh, uh, that is...
**[06:03] ---**
I forgot to ask the doctor something,
so I'm going to go ask.
**[06:07] ---**
So you all go on ahead.
**[06:10] ---**
Sissy...?
**[06:15] ---**
Long time no see-- but then again,
**[06:17] ---**
is it okay for you to be
out walking around on your own?
**[06:19] ---**
"I got permission from
the doctor, so no problem,"
**[06:23] ---**
says Misaka, explaining.
**[06:26] ---**
Oh, you did? All right, then.
**[06:29] ---**
I spoke to that girl last night.
**[06:32] ---**
Eh?
**[06:34] ---**
That girl--you mean Febrie?
**[06:36] ---**
Yes.
**[06:38] ---**
I saw you staying up all
night waiting for her to be treated.
**[06:42] ---**
"Even though you haven't visited
Misaka, your own sister, lately,
**[06:46] ---**
Whoa, hold on!
**[06:47] ---**
I thought that she must
be someone pretty important,"
**[06:50] ---**
says Misaka,
with a pouty look on her face,
**[06:53] ---**
and enveloped in
a gloomy atmosphere.
**[06:55] ---**
I-It's not as though either one
of you is more important!
**[06:59] ---**
Then, late into the night,
**[07:01] ---**
I had a look inside her room.
**[07:08] ---**
You have regained consciousness, I see.
**[07:11] ---**
Mikoto?
**[07:12] ---**
"No, I am her younger
sister. More precisely,
**[07:15] ---**
I am a clone, created
from Sissy's DNA map,"
**[07:19] ---**
says Misaka, introducing herself.
**[07:22] ---**
Younger sister...
Mikoto is your older sister?
**[07:26] ---**
Yes.
**[07:28] ---**
She's quite a problem sister, but still...
**[07:31] ---**
I have an older sister, too.
I'd like to see her.
**[07:36] ---**
Febrie has an older sister?
**[07:39] ---**
The artificially created Febrie?
What does that mean?
**[07:42] ---**
Could it be that she is like Febrie?
**[07:45] ---**
"There is one other thing
that stood out when talking to her,"
**[07:50] ---**
says Misaka, by way of addendum.
**[07:52] ---**
I sensed that there was a
fixed pattern to the inclinations
**[07:55] ---**
within the knowledge
that she possesses.
**[07:58] ---**
Huh? What does that mean?
**[08:01] ---**
"It is something that
Misaka also experienced.
**[08:04] ---**
It is similar to the initial state
of the Testament learning process,"
**[08:08] ---**
reports Misaka.
**[08:12] ---**
"It is not unlikely that
she received her knowledge
**[08:15] ---**
through the use of Testament.
**[08:17] ---**
Also, considering the similarity pattern,
**[08:21] ---**
the probability that her
Testament program was developed
**[08:24] ---**
by the same individual who
developed Misaka's is high,"
**[08:28] ---**
says Misaka,
expressing her conjecture.
**[08:31] ---**
That means...
**[08:33] ---**
Scorny-eyes?
**[08:35] ---**
I haven't seen her at all
since everything happened,
**[08:37] ---**
Could she have
something to do with Febrie?
**[08:40] ---**
Has she gotten involved
with another one of those projects?
**[08:44] ---**
Even so...
**[08:47] ---**
She is the one...
**[08:49] ---**
...who showed Misaka the
flavor of milk tea.
**[08:53] ---**
Huh?
**[08:54] ---**
"If possible, I would like to
see her again, and thank her,"
**[08:59] ---**
says Misaka, voicing a modest hope.
**[09:08] ---**
Setting aside for now whether
she's involved in Febrie's case,
**[09:13] ---**
going by what Miss Kongo said,
**[09:15] ---**
the folks that attacked me
spoke about "recovering" Febrie.
**[09:20] ---**
In other words, taking her back.
**[09:23] ---**
Does that mean that Febrie
ran away from these people?
**[09:27] ---**
Whatever the case, it seems
like the quickest way to find out
**[09:30] ---**
is to identify who these
people are, and ask them directly.
**[09:34] ---**
And if the underworld
really is involved with this...
**[09:38] ---**
...then I can't drag Kuroko,
or any of the others into this.
**[09:44] ---**
I have to do this alone.
**[09:48] ---**
"Kongo Mitsuko"
**[09:49] ---**
Yes? Oh...
**[09:52] ---**
What's up, Miss Kongo?
**[09:54] ---**
What's up, you ask? I have been
on pins and needles about Febrie
**[09:57] ---**
ever since I left you yesterday.
**[09:59] ---**
When I called the hospital,
they said she had been discharged.
**[10:02] ---**
Oh, sorry. Mm-hmm, she's fine now.
**[10:07] ---**
She had her appetite when
she left the hospital a little earlier,
**[10:10] ---**
so there doesn't seem
to be any cause for concern.
**[10:12] ---**
That's terrific!
**[10:14] ---**
I'll pass that long to Miss Wannai
and Miss Awatsuki, as well.
**[10:17] ---**
Mm-hmm, please do.
**[10:18] ---**
Oh...
**[10:19] ---**
Hmm?
**[10:20] ---**
Come to think of it, I've done
something intolerable to those two.
**[10:25] ---**
Huh?
**[10:26] ---**
When I told them about the
events of yesterday,
**[10:29] ---**
they blamed themselves
terribly for not being there.
**[10:33] ---**
"Sharing the fun times as
well as the frightful times together
**[10:36] ---**
is what a true friend does," they said.
**[10:42] ---**
It's true.
**[10:44] ---**
If I had been in their position,
**[10:47] ---**
I have no doubt that I would
blame myself for not being any help, too.
**[10:52] ---**
I cannot believe I put
those two through that.
**[10:56] ---**
Friendship is a profound thing, isn't it?
**[11:01] ---**
Mm-hmm. You're right.
**[11:05] ---**
Mm-hmm, well, tell Miss Wannai
and Miss Awatsuki I said hi.
**[11:12] ---**
Sissy...
**[11:16] ---**
Have you completed your errand?
**[11:18] ---**
Huh? Oh, mm-hmm.
**[11:21] ---**
Then, let us go home, together.
**[11:29] ---**
As long as I'm acting on my own,
**[11:31] ---**
I have to be efficient about it.
**[11:33] ---**
First, I'll search through a
number of databases,
**[11:35] ---**
looking for leads.
**[11:37] ---**
Sharing the fun times as
well as the frightful times together
**[11:41] ---**
is what a true friend does.
**[11:54] ---**
Sissy, are you going out?
**[11:56] ---**
Oh, mm-hmm. There's something
I have to take care of.
**[12:01] ---**
I see.
**[12:02] ---**
I should be back sometime this evening.
**[12:04] ---**
Well, come back safely.
**[12:10] ---**
If you happen to need
any assistance with your errand,
**[12:14] ---**
please feel free to
tell me at any time. I...
**[12:19] ---**
...am always here for you.
**[12:23] ---**
Huh? Sissy...?
**[12:28] ---**
I'm just not getting anywhere, am I?
**[12:32] ---**
Um, Sissy--
**[12:34] ---**
All right!
**[12:35] ---**
Listen, Kuroko,
**[12:37] ---**
I need to talk to you.
**[12:42] ---**
Okay!
**[12:44] ---**
Hey, your towel, your towel!
**[12:46] ---**
Huh?!
**[12:47] ---**
Easy, Miss Saten!
**[12:48] ---**
Oh, sorry, sorry. But Febrie is...
**[12:53] ---**
...artificially created?
**[12:56] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[12:57] ---**
Imagine, not being able
to live without that lollipop.
**[13:00] ---**
Did whoever it was that constructed
Febrie design her like that?
**[13:05] ---**
Probably.
**[13:07] ---**
And Antiskill can't
do anything about them?
**[13:09] ---**
Do organizations like that really exist?
**[13:13] ---**
I... think so.
**[13:15] ---**
Do you have anyone in mind?
**[13:18] ---**
Presumably,
**[13:21] ---**
one time before,
**[13:22] ---**
I faced down some people
from one of those organizations.
**[13:27] ---**
They were incredibly dangerous people.
**[13:29] ---**
If we're going to help Febrie,
**[13:31] ---**
it will mean setting
foot into some risky areas.
**[13:35] ---**
I want you to understand that.
**[13:38] ---**
I don't want to put
you all in danger's way,
**[13:41] ---**
and honestly, I don't know
how much I can protect you.
**[13:45] ---**
Even so, if you want to help out--
**[13:47] ---**
First thing we have to do is
find whoever it is that created Febrie.
**[13:51] ---**
We know that Kongo must
have seen this guy's face, right?
**[13:55] ---**
That's right. Let's fill her in,
and have her help us, too.
**[13:58] ---**
Also, let's check around the
area we were attacked last night
**[14:01] ---**
and see if we can find any leads.
**[14:02] ---**
There is a good chance
that the surveillance cameras
**[14:05] ---**
were not working
due to the construction.
**[14:07] ---**
I'll check to see if there are
any signs of a system break-in.
**[14:10] ---**
Also, it's because of those lollipops
**[14:12] ---**
that Febrie can stay healthy, right?
**[14:14] ---**
I wonder if we can
make them ourselves.
**[14:17] ---**
Oh, you're right. Can you handle
looking into that, Miss Saten?
**[14:21] ---**
There is also the question
of that powered suit.
**[14:24] ---**
I will check with Antiskill to see
if they have discovered anything.
**[14:28] ---**
Yes, of course.
**[14:29] ---**
That leaves...
**[14:30] ---**
Guys...
**[14:32] ---**
Miss Misaka, what's the matter?
**[14:34] ---**
Misaka, please,
would you get in on this, too?
**[14:36] ---**
The best plan
would be to hit them first,
**[14:37] ---**
before they can come attacking us.
**[14:44] ---**
"#21 Darkness"
**[14:44] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[14:51] ---**
Febrie, what are you drawing there?
**[14:53] ---**
Gekota!
**[14:54] ---**
Oh, yeah? That's very good!
**[14:58] ---**
I'll draw you next, Mii.
**[15:00] ---**
Really? Thank you!
**[15:03] ---**
Thank you, Miss Konori,
**[15:05] ---**
for letting us ask
you to play with Febrie.
**[15:07] ---**
Just leave her to me. And how
are you coming? Find any leads yet?
**[15:12] ---**
It doesn't look like there are any
signs of intrusion into the system.
**[15:16] ---**
I think I'll widen the search
parameters a little more.
**[15:19] ---**
Okay.
**[15:21] ---**
All done!
**[15:22] ---**
Let me see!
**[15:27] ---**
I'm back.
**[15:28] ---**
Ah, Miss Saten!
**[15:30] ---**
Welcome back. Find anything
out about the lollipops?
**[15:33] ---**
Well, the thing is...
**[15:35] ---**
"It will be difficult to analyze
all of the candy's components.
**[15:40] ---**
And even once it's done,
**[15:41] ---**
it will be even more difficult
to make such a candy," he says.
**[15:46] ---**
I see.
**[15:48] ---**
He did say he would be in touch
if he finds anything out, though.
**[15:52] ---**
I don't put too much faith in
that doctor, you know?
**[15:55] ---**
His face kind of looks like Gekota.
**[15:58] ---**
Ruiko, that's funny!
**[15:58] ---**
M-Miss Saten...
**[16:00] ---**
"Antiskill 7th School District Branch"
**[16:01] ---**
The powered suit?
**[16:03] ---**
Yes, there is something
we would like to check--
**[16:06] ---**
I'm sorry, but it is no longer here.
**[16:11] ---**
Headquarters has taken
up the investigation of that case,
**[16:14] ---**
and they left with all
the evidence this morning.
**[16:17] ---**
Together with those security robots, as well.
**[16:20] ---**
Security robots?
**[16:22] ---**
The ones that went out of control
at the Reach Assembly site?
**[16:24] ---**
Yeah. And while this isn't the
first time HQ has come barging in,
**[16:29] ---**
they were awfully
quick about handling this.
**[16:34] ---**
Anyhow, I did get a first look
at everything under investigation,
**[16:38] ---**
but I didn't get much in the way of results.
**[16:41] ---**
The whole thing was a
patchwork of unregistered parts.
**[16:44] ---**
There weren't any particular
leads from its footprints, either.
**[16:47] ---**
I see.
**[16:48] ---**
I guess there is nothing we can do.
**[16:50] ---**
Thank you very much.
**[16:52] ---**
See you.
**[16:53] ---**
Yeah.
**[17:01] ---**
Hey!
**[17:03] ---**
Take this with you.
**[17:05] ---**
What is it?
**[17:06] ---**
It was lying inside the powered suit.
It may be some kind of lead.
**[17:11] ---**
Are you sure about this?
**[17:13] ---**
If it's going to be
taken away by HQ anyway,
**[17:15] ---**
it makes no difference to
me if you guys hang onto it.
**[17:18] ---**
However...
**[17:22] ---**
...don't do anything crazy.
**[17:25] ---**
What could it be?
**[17:27] ---**
Maybe it's some kind of part from it?
**[17:30] ---**
Then when she said all of the
evidence had been taken away,
**[17:33] ---**
sure enough...
**[17:34] ---**
It is conceivable that someone
is applying pressure to Antiskill.
**[17:39] ---**
You mean the dark organization
that Misaka was talking about?
**[17:42] ---**
That could be
what it means, I suppose.
**[17:45] ---**
Listen, Febrie, anything might be useful,
**[17:48] ---**
so have you remembered anything since then?
**[17:52] ---**
Mm-mm.
**[17:54] ---**
Okay.
**[17:55] ---**
How did the surveillance cameras pan out?
**[17:57] ---**
Well...
**[17:59] ---**
...when it happened,
all of the cameras in that area
**[18:01] ---**
appeared to undergo
operational failure en masse.
**[18:04] ---**
Huh? The other cameras, too?
**[18:06] ---**
Yes. The only thing that explains it
**[18:09] ---**
is if the entire area experienced
some kind of interference.
**[18:12] ---**
Come to think of it, at the time,
**[18:13] ---**
our cell phones weren't
getting through, were they?
**[18:16] ---**
It is hard to call that a
coincidence, huh?
**[18:18] ---**
Oh!
**[18:19] ---**
What?
**[18:20] ---**
Oh, nothing, just that on
that day, a little ways away,
**[18:23] ---**
there was some
more traffic signal trouble.
**[18:26] ---**
Signal trouble like the
kind we had the other day?
**[18:29] ---**
Eh? Does that have something to do with this?
**[18:31] ---**
It doesn't necessarily, but...
**[18:33] ---**
It would be quite overblown,
if they were just out to get Febrie.
**[18:38] ---**
Could they have some
other objective in mind...?
**[18:41] ---**
"Kongo Mitsuko"
**[18:44] ---**
We attempted to trace the path
of the man from the other day,
**[18:47] ---**
but we have not
come up with any leads.
**[18:49] ---**
I see.
**[18:51] ---**
Mm-hmm. All right, thanks.
**[18:53] ---**
We will try looking over a
larger area, though.
**[18:56] ---**
Don't get in over your heads, okay?
**[18:58] ---**
Oh, have you found out
anything about that powered suit?
**[19:02] ---**
Antiskill checked it out,
but apparently, they found nothing.
**[19:06] ---**
I'll see if I can
find out anything from my end.
**[19:09] ---**
My father's company has
some joint research divisions
**[19:13] ---**
that deal in powered
suits within Academy City.
**[19:16] ---**
Mm-hmm, that will help.
Okay, talk to you later.
**[19:20] ---**
Was that Kongo?
**[19:22] ---**
Mm-hmm. It sounds like
they're still looking around.
**[19:24] ---**
Come to think of it,
**[19:26] ---**
why would that man be at
the Reach Assembly location?
**[19:29] ---**
Because he was after Febrie, wasn't he?
**[19:34] ---**
We cannot afford to be
outdone by Kongo Mitsuko!
**[19:37] ---**
We have no choice but to
once again thoroughly investigate
**[19:39] ---**
anything that comes to mind!
**[19:41] ---**
You're right!
**[19:42] ---**
I will investigate any blackouts
**[19:44] ---**
that happened in Academy City
over these last few days.
**[19:46] ---**
Well, I'll go back to
where we first met Febrie, and--
**[19:52] ---**
Misaka Mikoto.
**[19:54] ---**
Why did Febrie know my name?
Someone had to have told her.
**[19:59] ---**
Someone...
**[20:02] ---**
Her? But if that's the case,
**[20:06] ---**
why?
**[20:09] ---**
We have taken measures with Antiskill.
**[20:12] ---**
I doubt that they will
be able to uncover anything,
**[20:16] ---**
but just in case.
**[20:18] ---**
We can't have them sniffing around
**[20:20] ---**
right before the all-important
Reach Assembly.
**[20:23] ---**
Are you sure it's all
right to leave Febrie alone?
**[20:26] ---**
I thought we took a
vote on that matter yesterday.
**[20:29] ---**
Just confirming. We don't want
to have anything jinx our big moment.
**[20:34] ---**
Febrie will definitely die
before the Reach Assembly.
**[20:37] ---**
She is a backup, after all,
so there is no problem at all.
**[20:41] ---**
The Reach Assembly is close at hand.
**[20:43] ---**
We should prioritize the tune-up right now...
**[20:45] ---**
...of Janie.
**[20:47] ---**
We haven't overlooked
anything in our preparations, right?
**[20:50] ---**
Of course not.
Right, Miss Nunotaba?
**[20:54] ---**
My utmost.
**[20:58] ---**
I will do all that I can.
**[21:00] ---**
"Shinobu Nunotaba" "Expelled"
**[21:00] ---**
Scorny-eyes got herself expelled
**[21:03] ---**
from Nagatenjoki Academy.
**[21:06] ---**
I can't find any trail
on her since then.
**[21:09] ---**
Which means,
**[21:11] ---**
the only avenue I have left...
**[21:16] ---**
About the fiber that
was inside this capsule--
**[21:20] ---**
it appears to be made
of the same components
**[21:23] ---**
as those that comprise
that girl Febrie's body.
**[21:27] ---**
To put it more simply, this is a hair.
**[21:29] ---**
Hair? Then, it's Febrie's?
**[21:32] ---**
No, it isn't.
**[21:34] ---**
It belongs to a different individual.
**[21:37] ---**
A different one? Febrie's older sister?
**[21:41] ---**
There is something
I wanted to ask *you* about, too.
**[21:45] ---**
I had a close look at that candy of hers,
**[21:49] ---**
and considering the number
of lollipops she is carrying,
**[21:52] ---**
I realized that her situation
is more urgent than I thought.
**[21:56] ---**
Urgent?
**[21:58] ---**
Roughly seventy-two hours.
**[22:01] ---**
That is how much time the candy
she has now can sustain her life.
**[22:06] ---**
Oh, no... Isn't there
anything you can do?!
**[22:10] ---**
Like I told you before,
**[22:12] ---**
if there is anyone who
can fix up that girl's body,
**[22:15] ---**
it would have to be
the one who created it.
**[22:20] ---**
Where are you going?
**[22:22] ---**
Where? I'm going to go looking.
**[22:25] ---**
We're all going to go look for
the guys who made Febrie, right away.
**[22:28] ---**
Do you know where to look?
**[22:30] ---**
Even if we don't...
**[22:33] ---**
I'll ask you again.
**[22:35] ---**
Are you ready to face off against
the darkness within this city?
**[22:41] ---**
Even if it means
you yourself getting hurt?
**[22:46] ---**
If it will save Febrie...
**[22:51] ---**
The quickest way to
find out about the underworld
**[22:54] ---**
is to ask someone
who is well-informed about it.
**[22:57] ---**
If it's what you want,
I will arrange a meeting.
**[23:04] ---**
I'll explain the situation in advance.
**[23:15] ---**
This person is someone
that you know well.
**[23:24] ---**
Long time no see...
**[23:27] ---**
...my little guinea pig.
**[23:47] ---**
"Next episode preview"
**[23:48] ---**
Long time no see, guinea pig.
**[23:51] ---**
You're...
**[23:52] ---**
Yes.
**[23:52] ---**
...that lady from before...
**[23:53] ---**
Yes, I am.
**[23:55] ---**
Who are you again?
**[23:56] ---**
Therestina!

**[00:20] ---**
Imagine, us meeting
again in this fashion.
**[00:24] ---**
You are *all* my guinea pigs!
**[00:27] ---**
Academy City is my breeding farm,
**[00:30] ---**
and every last one of
you kids are my livestock!
**[00:34] ---**
But right now, the one who
holds the key to saving Febrie is...
**[00:40] ---**
Long time no see...
**[00:43] ---**
...my little guinea pig.
**[00:46] ---**
Therestina Kihara Lifeline.
**[00:51] ---**
*A shining hope runs its way
through the city, letting friends*
**[00:58] ---**
*who always believe in each other
join hands and follow their hearts*
**[01:05] ---**
*in an ongoing search for
a future they have faith in*
**[01:13] ---**
*Standing still amid
the hustle and bustle,*
**[01:16] ---**
*I watched as you faded into the distance*
**[01:19] ---**
*Because I now realize*
**[01:22] ---**
*the importance of sharing*
**[01:26] ---**
*Both the day and all of
us are wreathed in smiles*
**[01:32] ---**
*and I want to preserve
how normal that feels for us*
**[01:41] ---**
*When the sky resounds
with dreams kicking off*
**[01:48] ---**
*unshakable power starts seizing on reality*
**[01:54] ---**
*It's because you had the
strength to reveal your weakness*
**[02:01] ---**
*that I never forget, every single day,
to cherish the bonds between us*
**[02:07] ---**
*and head held high,
blaze a future to be proud of*
**[02:24] ---**
Mugino, come swim!
**[02:26] ---**
Yeah, later.
**[02:29] ---**
Wah! Are you all right?
**[02:31] ---**
Hmm?
**[02:33] ---**
Ah, this feels great.
**[02:35] ---**
Huh? What are you talking about?
**[02:38] ---**
In short,
it's a question of face.
**[02:40] ---**
We can't sit back and do nothing
while being taken advantage of.
**[02:44] ---**
In this world, if you get
taken for granted, you're through.
**[02:47] ---**
Being manipulated by
disinformation is your mistake.
**[02:48] ---**
Aren't you going to swim?
**[02:50] ---**
This is fun.
**[02:50] ---**
Why should we have to clean up your mess?!
**[02:53] ---**
I can't believe you! I told
you you're going to be paid for it,
**[02:56] ---**
so stop your complaining!
**[02:57] ---**
You said yourself that you
were pissed at being tricked, right?
**[03:00] ---**
Tch...
**[03:02] ---**
We're free to get rowdy, right?
**[03:03] ---**
As much as you like.
**[03:06] ---**
What's going on, Mugino? Work?
**[03:08] ---**
Yeah. I'm not very
enthusiastic about it, though.
**[03:11] ---**
We're going to go
work up a little sweat.
**[03:18] ---**
What?
**[03:19] ---**
That look on your face
has gotten better, hasn't it?
**[03:22] ---**
You must have seen your
fill of the darkness in this town.
**[03:28] ---**
Did you lose hope?
**[03:29] ---**
Did you get spooked at
the depth of the darkness?
**[03:32] ---**
Then what did you do?
Curse Academy City here?
**[03:40] ---**
And then, finally, you realized
that what I said was correct?
**[03:45] ---**
Academy City is a test site.
All of its students are guinea pigs!
**[03:50] ---**
So?
**[03:51] ---**
What did you want to ask?
**[03:53] ---**
Or did you want me to
pat your head and comfort you?
**[04:00] ---**
I want to save my friend.
**[04:03] ---**
Huh?
**[04:04] ---**
Her name is Febrie.
She's an artificially-made little girl,
**[04:09] ---**
and if I don't do something,
she only has seventy-two hours to live.
**[04:13] ---**
That's why I want to help her.
**[04:15] ---**
I know that it was an underground
organization that made Febrie.
**[04:19] ---**
I thought that maybe you
might know something about it--
**[04:22] ---**
What are you, stupid?
**[04:25] ---**
Friend, huh? After you've had
a whole heap of your clones killed,
**[04:30] ---**
you can still go on
spouting that mushy stuff?
**[04:34] ---**
This kid, whatever her name is,
**[04:36] ---**
is just one more guinea pig produced
by the darkness of this town!
**[04:40] ---**
If you're going to live in this town,
**[04:41] ---**
you either get swallowed up by
the darkness and live as livestock,
**[04:44] ---**
or you blow it,
along with the darkness, away.
**[04:47] ---**
There are no other choices you can make.
**[04:50] ---**
That's not true.
**[04:51] ---**
Huh?
**[04:52] ---**
Sure, I've had a look at
the darkness you speak of.
**[04:57] ---**
I received my degree of shock from it,
and I even became desperate.
**[05:01] ---**
Even so,
**[05:03] ---**
it was the people I met in
this city that saved me from that.
**[05:08] ---**
I have many precious friends,
and if it weren't for this city,
**[05:15] ---**
I never would have met any of them.
**[05:18] ---**
Yeah, there are a lot of
things that disgust me, but I...
**[05:22] ---**
...still do not hate Academy City.
**[05:28] ---**
That's enough. Leave me.
**[05:31] ---**
I'm not leaving.
**[05:34] ---**
Not until you tell me.
**[05:38] ---**
Who was it that created Febrie?
**[05:40] ---**
Who knows?
**[05:41] ---**
What is their objective?
What is this?!
**[05:45] ---**
Tell me!
**[05:46] ---**
Please!
**[05:47] ---**
What if I lie?
**[05:50] ---**
Do I have any reason
to tell you the truth?
**[05:55] ---**
Can you believe anything I say?
**[05:59] ---**
Yes, I will believe it.
**[06:02] ---**
Why?
**[06:04] ---**
Because I made up
my mind to believe you.
**[06:10] ---**
Hold out your hand.
**[06:17] ---**
Now, eat it. It's just ordinary
chocolate, with nothing added.
**[06:23] ---**
What's the matter?
You believe me, right?
**[06:34] ---**
I said I would believe you, didn't I?
**[06:38] ---**
Go away.
**[06:39] ---**
No. Tell me about Febrie.
**[06:41] ---**
I don't have anything to tell you!
**[06:44] ---**
I'm not leaving until you tell me!
**[06:46] ---**
You're bugging me! Get lost!
**[06:48] ---**
Please, tell me about Febrie! Please!
**[06:52] ---**
Ah, you are such a pain.
**[06:59] ---**
Chemicaloid.
**[07:01] ---**
If I remember, that's what they called it.
**[07:04] ---**
They? A chemicaloid is what Febrie is?
**[07:08] ---**
At the time,
it was all just theoretical,
**[07:11] ---**
but those boys must have perfected it.
**[07:14] ---**
They're the guys that made Febrie, then?
What's their objective?
**[07:18] ---**
Beats me.
**[07:19] ---**
They probably want to draw
attention to their own existence.
**[07:23] ---**
Draw attention?
**[07:24] ---**
There's some kind of event
coming up soon, isn't there?
**[07:27] ---**
An event?
**[07:30] ---**
The Reach Assembly!
**[07:33] ---**
What do you mean,
draw attention to their existence?
**[07:36] ---**
How does something like
that tie in with Febrie?
**[07:37] ---**
Something like that?
**[07:39] ---**
Ha, such is the mindset
of a chosen Level 5, huh?
**[07:44] ---**
Huh?
**[07:45] ---**
Remember this, young lady--
**[07:48] ---**
Here in Academy City, just by
pinning a Level 5 nametag on you,
**[07:53] ---**
even a lab rat like you
**[07:55] ---**
will have lots of precious
friends flocking around you.
**[08:00] ---**
When you find out
how deep the darkness goes
**[08:03] ---**
with those folks who
can't even become lab rats,
**[08:06] ---**
don't be so spooked you wet yourself,
**[08:09] ---**
you filthy brat!
**[08:13] ---**
Huh? So you met
with Miss Therestina, then?
**[08:16] ---**
Mm-hmm, sorry.
It all happened so quickly,
**[08:19] ---**
I didn't have a
chance to tell you all.
**[08:21] ---**
So "chemicaloid" is the
official name for what Febrie is?
**[08:26] ---**
And these people are planning to
do something at the Reach Assembly?
**[08:30] ---**
She didn't come
out and say that, exactly.
**[08:33] ---**
The guy that Miss Kongo
and the others saw,
**[08:36] ---**
who was talking about Febrie,
was also at the Reach Assembly site.
**[08:41] ---**
When she says there's
an event being held soon,
**[08:43] ---**
I'm thinking that's it.
**[08:45] ---**
I have to ask, though,
it was that doctor at the hospital
**[08:48] ---**
who arranged for you
to see Miss Therestina, huh?
**[08:51] ---**
That doctor's face looks like
a plushie mascot. Just who is he?
**[08:56] ---**
The doctor did tell me one other thing.
**[08:59] ---**
What is that?
**[09:00] ---**
That given the amount of
lollipops Febrie had,
**[09:04] ---**
she only has about
seventy-two hours left to live.
**[09:07] ---**
Huh? You're kidding!
**[09:09] ---**
Oh, no...
**[09:12] ---**
Seventy-two hours...
**[09:16] ---**
Uiharu?
**[09:17] ---**
I'm going to try screening
everyone involved in the assembly.
**[09:19] ---**
The administrators and
participating students, as well.
**[09:22] ---**
Uiharu...
**[09:26] ---**
Febrie, are you waking up?
**[09:28] ---**
Mm-hmm...
**[09:30] ---**
How are you all, ladies?
**[09:33] ---**
We brought something
fabulous for you today.
**[09:35] ---**
By any chance,
did you find some leads?
**[09:38] ---**
Huh? Oh, no, not exactly.
**[09:41] ---**
I'm terribly sorry.
**[09:43] ---**
We searched everywhere
looking for that gentleman...
**[09:46] ---**
...but we haven't found
anything worth mentioning.
**[09:49] ---**
B-But in time,
we will find him for sure!
**[09:53] ---**
Anyhow, we are here
on other business today.
**[09:56] ---**
We came here to deliver
a present to Febrie.
**[09:59] ---**
A present?
**[10:01] ---**
As it happens,
we found a very cute outfit.
**[10:05] ---**
We thought, that is sure to
look adorable on Miss Febrie.
**[10:09] ---**
Oh, yeah? Isn't that nice?
A present for you, Febrie!
**[10:14] ---**
All right, let's open it and see, okay?
**[10:19] ---**
Wow!
**[10:20] ---**
My, how cute!
**[10:22] ---**
This is mine?
**[10:24] ---**
Yes.
**[10:26] ---**
Mitsuko, Wanna, A-tsuki, thank you!
**[10:31] ---**
N-No need to thank us!
It is just a token of friendship!
**[10:35] ---**
This is mine!
**[10:36] ---**
Mm-hmm, it looks good, it looks good!
**[10:39] ---**
Febrie!
**[10:40] ---**
Your face is red.
Do you happen to feel feverish?
**[10:45] ---**
I'm not sure. My head is foggy.
**[10:49] ---**
Oh, lick your lollipop! Okay?
**[10:51] ---**
Let's see...
**[10:51] ---**
We have to hurry.
**[10:53] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[10:57] ---**
Oh...?
**[10:58] ---**
Oh, my goodness gracious!
**[11:00] ---**
That is the man! The one we
saw at the Reach Assembly site!
**[11:05] ---**
Right, Miss Wannai,
Miss Awatsuki?
**[11:07] ---**
Yes, definitely.
**[11:09] ---**
That is him, no doubt about it.
**[11:11] ---**
What is that photo?
**[11:11] ---**
"Aritomi Haruki" "Academy City Research"
**[11:12] ---**
It's from the participants
list of last year's assembly.
**[11:15] ---**
Aritomi Haruki...
**[11:16] ---**
Oh, he won the Reach Assembly's
first prize two years ago.
**[11:21] ---**
In fact, he is a regular
who has won top prizes every year.
**[11:24] ---**
Wow! If he is a high-ranked
regular at the Reach Assembly...
**[11:28] ---**
...it means he's one of the most
brilliant people in Academy City.
**[11:32] ---**
This man?
**[11:34] ---**
I do not know anything about him.
**[11:36] ---**
Right. I mean, when compared
to a high-level esper,
**[11:40] ---**
an ordinary genius doesn't stand out.
**[11:43] ---**
When you find out
how deep the darkness goes
**[11:46] ---**
with those folks who
can't even become lab rats...
**[11:49] ---**
Huh? This man...
**[11:52] ---**
It doesn't look like
he's attending this year.
**[11:54] ---**
Now that you mention it,
Miss Yomikawa said something about that.
**[11:58] ---**
About how a lot of the regulars
weren't showing up this year.
**[12:02] ---**
Let's see...
**[12:04] ---**
Oh, you're right.
**[12:05] ---**
There are many people
who aren't participating this year.
**[12:09] ---**
There is a chance that some
of his associates are in there, too.
**[12:23] ---**
No relevant data.
**[12:25] ---**
That just leaves Lab One.
**[12:31] ---**
Hey, you!
**[12:33] ---**
I can't see!
**[12:34] ---**
Say, Febrie, do you feel feverish still?
Are you really all right?
**[12:39] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[12:39] ---**
She had a good appetite, too.
It looks like we can rest easy for now.
**[12:43] ---**
Uiharu, have you
been looking all this time?
**[12:45] ---**
Yes. I just couldn't sit still.
**[12:48] ---**
This Aritomi person appears to have
**[12:51] ---**
voluntarily dropped out
of school a short while ago.
**[12:53] ---**
Hmm... What a shame, huh?
**[12:57] ---**
Huh?
**[12:57] ---**
I mean, if he's so smart
and talented that he wins prizes,
**[13:02] ---**
he could use that for
something more respectable.
**[13:04] ---**
Trying to abduct Febrie,
and underworld organizations--
**[13:08] ---**
I just don't get it.
**[13:09] ---**
Hmm, you're sure right about that.
**[13:12] ---**
I just learned about the
Reach Assembly for the first time,
**[13:15] ---**
but knowing that there are
non-espers who are still working hard,
**[13:19] ---**
kind of made me happy.
**[13:21] ---**
Miss Saten...
**[13:24] ---**
Yes, if you would be so kind,
Miss Yomikawa.
**[13:27] ---**
Okay.
**[13:30] ---**
She says there is not
enough evidence at present
**[13:32] ---**
to take any action.
**[13:34] ---**
But that is just as we expected.
**[13:37] ---**
We knew that with the
pressure that Antiskill is under,
**[13:40] ---**
we cannot hope for much from them.
**[13:44] ---**
Sissy, is there something bothering you?
**[13:48] ---**
Mm-hmm. Something Therestina
said to me is, a little bit.
**[13:54] ---**
A lot of people have to know
about the "Railgun of Tokiwadai," right?
**[14:00] ---**
I've made the acquaintance of a
lot of people as a result of it.
**[14:04] ---**
If I hadn't been a Level 5,
I was thinking...
**[14:10] ---**
...would you and the others have become
**[14:13] ---**
the kind of friends we are now?
**[14:15] ---**
Oh, Sissy...
**[14:20] ---**
The reason I am so attached to you
**[14:23] ---**
is not because you are the
Level 5 Railgun of Tokiwadai,
**[14:26] ---**
but because you are the slightly
raffish and immature-leaning,
**[14:29] ---**
yet kind-to-her-juniors,
and thoughtful...
**[14:31] ---**
Big Sissy Misaka Mikoto.
**[14:34] ---**
Kuroko...
**[14:37] ---**
Thank you. However...
**[14:41] ---**
Don't take advantage of
the situation to cling to me!
**[14:44] ---**
And don't call
me immature-leaning!
**[14:45] ---**
S-Sissy...
**[14:48] ---**
I also love how you show no
mercy when doling out punishment.
**[14:56] ---**
STUDY Corporation?
**[14:58] ---**
Yes. Aritomi Haruki's name came
up as one of the company's directors.
**[15:03] ---**
What kind of a company is it?
**[15:03] ---**
Febrie, which hand has the Gekota?
**[15:05] ---**
They seem to do a lot of things,
**[15:07] ---**
centering around pharmaceutical
manufacturing and chemistry.
**[15:11] ---**
So, do they have any suspicious facilities?
**[15:13] ---**
STUDY Corporation does
own a factory in School District 17.
**[15:19] ---**
It's an old factory,
with nothing unusual about it,
**[15:21] ---**
but the fact that they paid a
tremendous price for it bothers me.
**[15:24] ---**
That smells fishy, all right.
**[15:27] ---**
If it's a factory, are you saying
that's where they made Febrie?
**[15:30] ---**
It is possible that it is
where her candy is from.
**[15:31] ---**
Which hand?
**[15:33] ---**
Or if we could at least figure
out the data for its components...
**[15:38] ---**
It looks like the quickest way to find out
**[15:40] ---**
is to pop inside there and look directly.
**[15:42] ---**
We also don't have any time.
**[15:52] ---**
Keeping Febrie's eventual
health improvement in mind,
**[15:56] ---**
the first thing to
do is get that candy,
**[15:58] ---**
or at the very least,
the method of making it.
**[16:03] ---**
I can't fail.
**[16:06] ---**
Febrie's life is hanging
in the balance.
**[16:11] ---**
That bridge...
**[16:14] ---**
Having everyone come back smiling,
**[16:17] ---**
without having lost anything, is *my* dream.
**[16:20] ---**
So work with me,
so that it can come true.
**[16:25] ---**
Thinking back on it now,
**[16:27] ---**
that's quite a pushy,
self-indulgent idea, huh?
**[16:30] ---**
Just because it's a dream,
**[16:32] ---**
doesn't he think about what will
happen if it doesn't come true?
**[16:39] ---**
I guess you just have to
believe it will come true, huh?
**[16:44] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[16:47] ---**
What is it?
**[16:48] ---**
There's an intruder in Lab One.
**[16:50] ---**
Intruder? Who is it?
**[16:52] ---**
I don't know. The guard
system just went to Shift A alert.
**[16:57] ---**
Lab One's data
security is set to be low.
**[17:01] ---**
After all, it is a decoy, so to speak.
**[17:03] ---**
It shouldn't be surprising that
someone would come sniffing around.
**[17:06] ---**
If they're just
now arriving at Lab One,
**[17:09] ---**
it will not interfere
with our plans, right?
**[17:11] ---**
There's nothing there that
will hurt us if it's seen, is there?
**[17:14] ---**
All of Janie's data
has been relocated.
**[17:17] ---**
About all that's left is
that neutralizing agent data.
**[17:21] ---**
To make sure...
I'm going to go have a look.
**[17:25] ---**
To Lab One?
**[17:27] ---**
You'll be exterminated,
along with the intruder.
**[17:29] ---**
I don't intend to go out on any limbs.
**[17:31] ---**
Now that our plan is near at hand,
**[17:34] ---**
I just want to make
sure everything is safe,
**[17:37] ---**
so there are no unforeseen situations.
**[17:40] ---**
All right.
**[17:58] ---**
Again, there's nobody here,
is there, damn it!
**[18:02] ---**
Just like the last time,
it looks like ultra-bad intel.
**[18:04] ---**
You're sure we're going
to get paid for this, right?
**[18:08] ---**
H-How come?
**[18:09] ---**
How come those guys are here?
**[18:12] ---**
Don't tell me they knew
I was coming, and are lying in wait.
**[18:15] ---**
No, it doesn't look that way.
**[18:17] ---**
Are they working against
the people who made Febrie?
**[18:20] ---**
Like a feud between
underground organizations?
**[18:22] ---**
Huh? What's the matter, Takitsubo?
**[18:25] ---**
Mugino!
**[18:30] ---**
Ha! It's no use, no use!
**[18:32] ---**
As long as Takitsubo has her AIM Stalker,
**[18:35] ---**
which allows her to track
any ability she remembers,
**[18:37] ---**
then all told,
any sneak attacks are impossible!
**[18:41] ---**
Ability?
**[18:42] ---**
Does that mean that someone is
moving those unmanned power suits
**[18:45] ---**
using psychokinesis?
**[18:47] ---**
But there's no sign of anyone around.
**[18:50] ---**
Remote handling?
But even if they were remotely located...
**[18:54] ---**
It was lying inside the powered suit.
**[18:56] ---**
It appears to be made
of the same components
**[19:00] ---**
as those that comprise
that girl Febrie's body.
**[19:03] ---**
Assuming that hair acted as
a sort of receiver for some ability...
**[19:08] ---**
And if it did,
**[19:10] ---**
assuming that one person's
ability could move that many of them,
**[19:13] ---**
that would take
some Level 5-grade power.
**[19:16] ---**
Which means,
that hair has to belong to--
**[19:19] ---**
Takitsubo!
**[19:20] ---**
Are you okay?
**[19:21] ---**
Mm-hmm. I guess
I swam too much in the pool.
**[19:24] ---**
You swam?
**[19:25] ---**
Agh, this is so aggravating!
We're leaving.
**[19:28] ---**
Ultra-roger that.
**[19:29] ---**
Let's go, Takitsubo.
**[19:31] ---**
Mm-hmm...
**[19:31] ---**
Yikes!
**[19:33] ---**
Takitsubo? Is someone still here?
**[19:36] ---**
Mm-mm, it's all right.
The work portion of the day is over.
**[19:41] ---**
Oh?
**[19:41] ---**
Ah, I'm all sweaty.
Let's hurry back to the pool!
**[19:45] ---**
Yeah.
**[19:46] ---**
Takitsubo, you'd best not go back in.
**[19:52] ---**
They sure did make a royal
mess of things, huh? The way it looks,
**[19:55] ---**
there may not be anything left here.
**[20:00] ---**
Inside there...
**[20:02] ---**
...there's an area that
has functioning electricity.
**[20:16] ---**
Don't move.
**[20:18] ---**
Try anything the least bit funny, and...
**[20:21] ---**
You!
**[20:22] ---**
Why are you here?
**[20:26] ---**
Sure enough, you're involved in all this.
**[20:29] ---**
What's going on?
Are you in league with those guys?
**[20:37] ---**
You're the one who told
Febrie my name, aren't you?!
**[20:42] ---**
Hey, would you say something--
**[20:46] ---**
Take that with you.
It has the neutralizing agent data on it.
**[20:50] ---**
Neutralizing agent?
**[20:51] ---**
The data on that candy.
**[20:54] ---**
If you act now,
there should still be enough time.
**[20:56] ---**
Why are you giving this to me?
**[21:00] ---**
Sorry. I feel I need to apologize to you.
**[21:04] ---**
Yes, I'm the one
who gave Febrie your name.
**[21:10] ---**
I couldn't think of anyone
that I could turn to besides you.
**[21:15] ---**
It looks like my
estimates fell short, huh?
**[21:18] ---**
But today, there was
a disturbance here in Lab One.
**[21:23] ---**
Fortunately,
I was able to meet you here.
**[21:26] ---**
Now you will be able to help Febrie.
**[21:30] ---**
After that, she can...
**[21:31] ---**
I'm afraid not.
**[21:33] ---**
That recipe data is a dummy.
As such, you cannot save Febrie.
**[21:39] ---**
I was right to have some insurance.
**[21:43] ---**
So you were the one
who let Febrie escape after all.
**[21:46] ---**
Not only did you prove to be the traitor,
**[21:48] ---**
but you met with a celebrity.
**[21:50] ---**
Just like you said,
this is a fortunate day.
**[21:54] ---**
This is the first time we're
meeting in person, huh, Railgun?
**[21:58] ---**
The data that I procured from
you has proven quite useful to me.
**[22:02] ---**
Then you must be Aritomi Haruki.
**[22:05] ---**
I have to say,
**[22:07] ---**
I'm surprised that the reason
for you coming all this way to visit
**[22:11] ---**
is to save the life of Febrie,
one of our products.
**[22:14] ---**
Product? Then you really
are the ones who made Febrie!
**[22:18] ---**
Whoa...
**[22:20] ---**
Better that you don't use electricity.
**[22:23] ---**
Do you want to destroy
the real recipe data, as well?
**[22:26] ---**
Nunotaba...
**[22:30] ---**
Inject that into Railgun.
**[22:32] ---**
It will only incapacitate her;
she will not die.
**[22:36] ---**
Besides, if you do as I tell you,
I'm willing to give this to you.
**[22:42] ---**
We have no use for it anymore, after all.
**[22:47] ---**
I couldn't...
**[22:49] ---**
Do it.
**[22:51] ---**
This is to help Febrie.
**[23:08] ---**
Ha! Even a Level 5 is
rendered powerless like this.
**[23:15] ---**
I did as you ordered.
**[23:18] ---**
Now hand that over.
**[23:19] ---**
Ah, you're right.
**[23:25] ---**
Wha--?
**[23:26] ---**
That's enough.
**[23:27] ---**
Febrie is nothing
more than a spare, after all.
**[23:31] ---**
Spare...?
**[23:33] ---**
Yes.
**[23:34] ---**
For our great invention--
**[23:37] ---**
Janie.
**[23:47] ---**
"Next episode preview"
**[23:48] ---**
I knew you were involved
in this! Why, exactly?!
**[23:51] ---**
To tell the truth, it is a
long story. Once upon a time--
**[23:55] ---**
No, really, that's too long!

**[00:19] ---**
The idealist will say,
**[00:21] ---**
"Academy City Research Assembly"
**[00:21] ---**
a man does not have any
inherent superiority--
**[00:24] ---**
that we are all beings
of equal worth.
**[00:28] ---**
The spiritualist will shout,
**[00:30] ---**
there is no effort that
goes unrewarded.
**[00:32] ---**
Hence we must endeavor; it is
the process itself that is important.
**[00:50] ---**
However, that is not true.
**[00:53] ---**
"Daihasei Festival"
**[00:53] ---**
Even children soon understand
**[00:55] ---**
one thing after living in this city--
**[00:57] ---**
that no matter how much
you apply yourself to your studies,
**[01:00] ---**
or how great a thesis you
may produce, in the end,
**[01:03] ---**
in this city, the espers are the
only ones who aren't neglected.
**[01:06] ---**
That a person's ability level
is their worth, their superiority,
**[01:10] ---**
and their one and only benchmark.
**[01:12] ---**
However, an ability
is in fact an uncertain thing.
**[01:16] ---**
They are greatly affected by
one's innate qualities,
**[01:18] ---**
and the bottom line is,
the creation of a high-level esper
**[01:21] ---**
is only brought about by
near-uncontrollable chance.
**[01:24] ---**
In which case, I thought to myself,
**[01:28] ---**
couldn't I create an esper
using a completely new approach,
**[01:32] ---**
totally different from existing methods?
**[01:36] ---**
Couldn't I create an esper
with greater stability and uniformity,
**[01:40] ---**
and which would not be too
valuable to use up, out of nothing?
**[01:45] ---**
So then I and other
like-minded individuals
**[01:48] ---**
came up with a certain project.
**[01:51] ---**
A project that created
with absolute certainty an esper,
**[01:53] ---**
without relying on
a fluke of Providence.
**[01:56] ---**
"Project Chemicaloid."
**[01:59] ---**
*A shining hope runs its way
through the city, letting friends*
**[02:06] ---**
*who always believe in each other
join hands and follow their hearts*
**[02:13] ---**
*in an ongoing search for
a future they have faith in*
**[02:21] ---**
*Standing still amid
the hustle and bustle,*
**[02:24] ---**
*I watched as you faded into the distance*
**[02:27] ---**
*Because I now realize*
**[02:30] ---**
*the importance of sharing*
**[02:34] ---**
*Both the day and all of
us are wreathed in smiles*
**[02:40] ---**
*and I want to preserve
how normal that feels for us*
**[02:49] ---**
*When the sky resounds
with dreams kicking off*
**[02:56] ---**
*unshakable power starts seizing on reality*
**[03:02] ---**
*It's because you had the
strength to reveal your weakness*
**[03:09] ---**
*that I never forget, every single day,
to cherish the bonds between us*
**[03:15] ---**
*and head held high,
blaze a future to be proud of*
**[03:29] ---**
And that is the reason
you made Febrie and her sister?
**[03:33] ---**
For something as petty as that?
**[03:36] ---**
Hmph, as it turns out,
**[03:39] ---**
you are one of those who
is entrenched in ability Levelism.
**[03:42] ---**
Just like those others.
**[03:44] ---**
Those others?
**[03:46] ---**
Previously,
**[03:47] ---**
I presented this project
to those who possessed skills
**[03:50] ---**
that would likely be
necessary for a chemicaloid.
**[03:55] ---**
For someone claiming to be
underground, they're not a big deal, huh?
**[03:58] ---**
Not if they can't see
the potential our proposal has.
**[04:02] ---**
I'm glad you made it here safely.
**[04:05] ---**
Now we can implement
Project Level 6 Shift
**[04:07] ---**
on the scale that we had planned for it.
**[04:11] ---**
Is that... Dr. Kihara Gensei?
**[04:14] ---**
When I heard there was some competition,
**[04:15] ---**
I broke out in a bit of a cold sweat.
**[04:18] ---**
Competition?
**[04:19] ---**
Ah, you mean with that
summer-vacation arts and crafts project?
**[04:27] ---**
But then, what I learned from that
**[04:30] ---**
was that even famous researchers
**[04:32] ---**
suffer from an outdated
obsession with esper Levelism.
**[04:36] ---**
Revolutionary ideas are
always regarded as heretical, after all.
**[04:41] ---**
To be recognized, we would have
to prove ourselves by our merits.
**[04:45] ---**
That is why we actually
did create them.
**[04:47] ---**
Chemicaloids. We would use
them to prove our superiority--
**[04:52] ---**
our correctness--to the world!
**[04:55] ---**
So, what did the basis of
your superiority end up being?
**[05:00] ---**
What is their ability?
**[05:02] ---**
Trying to draw some
information out of me, are you?
**[05:05] ---**
But then, I've already given
you a good number of clues.
**[05:08] ---**
Remote operation...
with those hairs acting as a medium...
**[05:12] ---**
Mm-mm, that will only
earn you about thirty points.
**[05:17] ---**
You flunk, Railgun.
**[05:19] ---**
The answer is... yes.
You will find that out tomorrow.
**[05:23] ---**
Tomorrow morning, at daybreak,
our large-scale chemicaloid
**[05:26] ---**
open experiment is scheduled to be held.
**[05:29] ---**
Experiment?
**[05:30] ---**
No, we can't call it an
experiment anymore, can we?
**[05:34] ---**
Allow me to revise that.
**[05:35] ---**
A revolution! We, the members
of STUDY, will be instigating
**[05:39] ---**
a revolution in Academy City!
**[05:41] ---**
The residents of this city--no,
**[05:43] ---**
of the whole world will learn their lesson.
**[05:45] ---**
It is not abilities that will
open the way for the new age,
**[05:49] ---**
but intelligence!
**[05:51] ---**
How...
**[05:58] ---**
15:40...
**[06:04] ---**
Trying to move won't do any good.
**[06:06] ---**
About all you can move right
now are your mouth and eyes.
**[06:10] ---**
Because... the drug
I injected you with earlier
**[06:13] ---**
blocks the transmission
of commands to your nerves.
**[06:17] ---**
You shouldn't be able to move
even a finger for two more hours.
**[06:21] ---**
Tell me, Miss Nunotaba,
why are you mixed up with these guys?
**[06:27] ---**
You spoke before, didn't you,
**[06:29] ---**
about my sisters? How you no
longer thought of them as things,
**[06:34] ---**
and were trying to
shut down the experiments.
**[06:37] ---**
Why would someone like you
be someplace like this once again?
**[06:41] ---**
I messed up with the Sisters case,
**[06:44] ---**
and was caught by
an underground organization.
**[06:46] ---**
And then, I was sold...
**[06:49] ---**
...to STUDY.
**[06:51] ---**
That's when I came across
the artificially created twins,
**[06:55] ---**
Janie and Febrie.
**[06:58] ---**
The involuntary neural activity
essential to keeping them alive,
**[07:02] ---**
what you might call
their base programming,
**[07:05] ---**
had been based on a thesis
that I had written long ago.
**[07:09] ---**
The sin that I once committed
**[07:11] ---**
will never, ever be forgiven;
it will always follow me.
**[07:16] ---**
However,
**[07:17] ---**
that is the very reason
why I must do this personally.
**[07:22] ---**
That is what I thought
when I looked at those girls.
**[07:27] ---**
Janie...
**[07:29] ---**
Febrie's sister only has enough
programming language installed
**[07:33] ---**
to allow her Diffusion Ghost
core to function.
**[07:37] ---**
Diffusion Ghost?
**[07:39] ---**
Janie's ability. I was planning to
give her consciousness as a person,
**[07:44] ---**
and then once I got
the neutralizing agent recipe,
**[07:47] ---**
run away together with her.
**[07:49] ---**
But now that things have gone
this far, that's quite impossible.
**[07:55] ---**
All I can do now is to get
the recipe out of Aritomi himself,
**[07:57] ---**
since he's the one who came up with it.
**[08:00] ---**
No matter what that might take.
**[08:02] ---**
Ah... right.
**[08:05] ---**
I don't care what happens to me.
**[08:07] ---**
I will save those two girls, at any cost.
**[08:10] ---**
I'm sure that right now, Miss Nunotaba is...
**[08:15] ---**
Say...
**[08:16] ---**
The way that I've wronged you is--
**[08:18] ---**
My sisters said that they
wanted to offer their thanks to you.
**[08:23] ---**
Before you go taking everything
on yourself, turn around,
**[08:26] ---**
open your eyes wide,
and take a good look.
**[08:29] ---**
There are people there
that want to help you, after all.
**[08:34] ---**
And you are one of them, aren't you?
**[08:37] ---**
What are you able to do now?
Your motor nerves have been shut down,
**[08:42] ---**
and the most you can do is move your mouth.
**[08:44] ---**
Who'd you say...
**[08:46] ---**
...can't move?
**[08:48] ---**
How...?
**[08:50] ---**
Don't tell me...
**[08:51] ---**
...she's using her ability
to directly control
**[08:54] ---**
the electrical signals
that run to her motor nerves!
**[08:59] ---**
This is the first time I've ever tried this,
**[09:01] ---**
but I might be able to
do quite a bit this way, huh?
**[09:04] ---**
But by doing that, she should have
intense pain throughout her body!
**[09:09] ---**
I've finally started
to understand recently.
**[09:12] ---**
You count on someone,
and someone counts on you.
**[09:16] ---**
And just like that,
**[09:18] ---**
people can generate more strength
than they can all by themselves.
**[09:22] ---**
You know, when I first
found out about my sisters,
**[09:27] ---**
I started running in circles, too.
**[09:29] ---**
Like, "It's all my fault," or
"I have to do something."
**[09:35] ---**
However,
**[09:36] ---**
right now, I'm thinking that
was a mistake. Which is why...
**[09:43] ---**
Here they come.
**[09:44] ---**
Huh?
**[09:46] ---**
Hey, what was that?
**[09:47] ---**
Intruders. The guard robots
have been destroyed!
**[09:51] ---**
Uiharu, the entrance is under my control.
**[09:54] ---**
You are sure there are no other civilians?
**[09:57] ---**
No doubt about it.
Please, go as crazy as you like.
**[10:00] ---**
Miss Saten, what is the status outside?
**[10:02] ---**
Fine. No suspicious activity as of yet.
**[10:06] ---**
How did they know about this place?
**[10:08] ---**
I borrowed one of
those tracking nanodevices
**[10:10] ---**
that they use when you
go outside of Academy City.
**[10:14] ---**
Then, I told my friends,
**[10:17] ---**
"If I'm not back in time, come get me."
**[10:20] ---**
You even dragged your friends into this--
**[10:22] ---**
No.
**[10:23] ---**
I explained everything
to them first, and asked them...
**[10:27] ---**
...to help me.
**[10:29] ---**
They all nodded
without hesitation, saying,
**[10:32] ---**
"If it's for Febrie, sure."
**[10:37] ---**
But it looks like it will take
more than just us to help Febrie.
**[10:43] ---**
So I'm asking you...
to come help us, too.
**[10:49] ---**
But there's nothing I can do--
**[10:51] ---**
You're wrong.
**[10:53] ---**
You're the only one who can.
**[10:57] ---**
Look--
**[10:57] ---**
Before I answer,
**[10:59] ---**
there is something that
I have to say to you, too.
**[11:05] ---**
Please... help...
**[11:08] ---**
...us.
**[11:15] ---**
Kuroko!
**[11:16] ---**
Sissy!
**[11:17] ---**
Ah! Wait, Kuroko--
**[11:20] ---**
Sissy! I came to help you,
and this is how you treat me?
**[11:24] ---**
Oh, sorry. Some things
happened, and for a little while,
**[11:27] ---**
I'm going to be a human stun gun.
**[11:30] ---**
In any case,
let's get out of here for now.
**[11:32] ---**
Sissy?
**[11:34] ---**
I'll explain everything afterward.
**[11:39] ---**
To be able to move after
being injected with that drug...
**[11:43] ---**
For crying out loud,
**[11:44] ---**
she is every bit the
beast that we'd heard about.
**[11:47] ---**
So, why are you still here?
Why didn't you run away?
**[11:51] ---**
Above all, if I, who had been sold
among the underworld, ran away,
**[11:57] ---**
I would turn all of the
underworld against me.
**[11:59] ---**
Here in this city,
that's as good as being dead.
**[12:02] ---**
You truly have had
it drilled into you, all right.
**[12:04] ---**
But that's okay.
If you had run away,
**[12:06] ---**
we would have had no choice
but to use the whip when using Janie.
**[12:12] ---**
The only place you have
anymore is in the darkness.
**[12:16] ---**
Please keep that in mind as you work.
**[12:20] ---**
Are you sure you want to stay?
**[12:23] ---**
Aritomi and the others pulled
up their stakes from here,
**[12:26] ---**
and relocated Janie someplace else.
**[12:29] ---**
If I leave here now, we won't
be able to find out where they went.
**[12:31] ---**
But...
**[12:32] ---**
Never mind.
**[12:34] ---**
I still have some value to them.
They won't dispose of me right away.
**[12:39] ---**
One way or another, I'll get a nibble,
find out where their base is,
**[12:43] ---**
and get the recipe
for the neutralizing agent.
**[12:45] ---**
All right.
**[12:46] ---**
Also, that Aritomi guy seemed
pretty confident about "tomorrow."
**[12:52] ---**
What's that about?
**[12:53] ---**
They haven't told
me the details, either.
**[12:56] ---**
But they plan to put
it into action... tomorrow.
**[13:00] ---**
A major terrorist attack
at the Reach Assembly sites?!
**[13:02] ---**
Yes. They said it
was going to be a revolution.
**[13:06] ---**
A revolution?
**[13:08] ---**
They mean business. Using the
STUDY Corporation as a cover,
**[13:12] ---**
they're going to use
Febrie's sister Janie's power...
**[13:15] ---**
Huh?!
**[13:16] ---**
You mean...!
**[13:17] ---**
That "Diffusion Ghost"
ability that she has?
**[13:21] ---**
"Diffusion Ghost"
uses her hair as a medium,
**[13:25] ---**
filling the space
in which it is enclosed
**[13:28] ---**
by converting the AIM
diffusion field into virtual matter,
**[13:31] ---**
controlling it.
**[13:33] ---**
In other words, what was
controlling that empty powered suit
**[13:37] ---**
and the inoperative
security robots was, in fact,
**[13:39] ---**
the ability of this girl Janie.
**[13:42] ---**
Materializing AIM diffusion fields...
**[13:45] ---**
You mean, like Dr. Kiyama
did that one time?
**[13:47] ---**
Uiharu, you know what she means?
**[13:49] ---**
I kind of know,
and I've kind of seen it.
**[13:51] ---**
But then,
**[13:52] ---**
it is said that with
operating system abilities,
**[13:55] ---**
there is a limit to how many
things can be controlled at once.
**[13:57] ---**
I do not think this is well-suited
for a large-scale terrorist attack.
**[14:00] ---**
Well, they did say that a number
of simple commands are placed
**[14:04] ---**
ahead of time into the fields
that Janie virtually materializes.
**[14:08] ---**
Like, say,
**[14:09] ---**
"Eliminate any opponent
that attacks you," or something.
**[14:12] ---**
So what you mean is, they can
use them like autonomous robots?
**[14:17] ---**
If that's true, then indeed,
**[14:19] ---**
a large-scale terrorist
attack would not be impossible.
**[14:23] ---**
Janie...
**[14:24] ---**
Do you know where Janie is?
**[14:26] ---**
If we stop her, they can't
launch a terrorist attack, right?
**[14:29] ---**
Yes, but this Nunotaba Shinobu
woman I mentioned before
**[14:33] ---**
was not told what location is
the base for the terrorist plot.
**[14:36] ---**
Oh, no...
**[14:38] ---**
Once Janie uses her ability,
she said we can take advantage of that
**[14:41] ---**
to have Febrie give us a rough idea,
**[14:44] ---**
or at least the direction where she is.
**[14:47] ---**
But for that to be possible,
the event has to have already happened,
**[14:51] ---**
is what that means, is it not?
**[14:53] ---**
If we're going to forestall this,
the surest thing to do
**[14:56] ---**
seems to be to pursue the
powered suit angle.
**[14:58] ---**
There must be quite
a few of them deployed
**[15:00] ---**
in the area around
the Reach Assembly site.
**[15:03] ---**
Miss Uiharu, can you look that up?
**[15:05] ---**
The number of narrow
parameters has increased.
**[15:08] ---**
I think I can do it!
**[15:11] ---**
Sissy, with this much
information collected,
**[15:13] ---**
might not Antiskill
be able to act now?
**[15:15] ---**
Yeah, right!
**[15:17] ---**
I'm sorry,
**[15:18] ---**
but Antiskill probably
can't go any further into this case.
**[15:22] ---**
That cannot be!
**[15:25] ---**
The STUDY Corporation, huh?
**[15:27] ---**
After hearing that name,
things are starting to make sense.
**[15:31] ---**
They're a company that has
suddenly risen to prominence,
**[15:34] ---**
forcing out the competition and becoming
the suppliers for our equipment.
**[15:38] ---**
But they have no visible
backbone, considering,
**[15:41] ---**
and that part did bother me.
**[15:43] ---**
Tch, to think I have to find out
**[15:45] ---**
why I was suddenly
put on suspension like *this*.
**[15:47] ---**
Suspension?!
**[15:48] ---**
Are you all right?
**[15:50] ---**
Yeah. I'm weathering things at
a friend's place right now.
**[15:53] ---**
You don't have to worry about me.
**[15:55] ---**
I'm more worried about you guys.
Don't do anything crazy, now.
**[16:00] ---**
The situation is more
dire than we thought, huh?
**[16:04] ---**
I've got it! The records of STUDY
Corporation's bulk containers
**[16:08] ---**
and the sites they were delivered to!
**[16:10] ---**
They're inside the sites?!
But that's--
**[16:12] ---**
It says that at each site,
there was a blackout during delivery,
**[16:15] ---**
and the records are less than sound.
**[16:18] ---**
Blackouts?!
**[16:19] ---**
So this is the reason for those!
**[16:21] ---**
So then, how many are there?
**[16:22] ---**
One moment, please.
I'm tallying them now--
**[16:24] ---**
Bad news!
**[16:25] ---**
I finally got a hold of
some information I looked up
**[16:28] ---**
through my father's channels!
**[16:30] ---**
When you add up all the parts
**[16:30] ---**
Approximating by container
capacity and contents...
**[16:32] ---**
that were placed by various companies,
**[16:33] ---**
you can build a tremendous
number of powered suits!
**[16:37] ---**
No way! That many?!
**[16:37] ---**
The number has to be at least--
**[16:39] ---**
Over 20,000 suits!
**[16:41] ---**
I beg your pardon?
**[16:42] ---**
That many?
**[16:46] ---**
Sure enough,
**[16:47] ---**
since they went
through formal procedures
**[16:49] ---**
and were delivered to the sites,
**[16:51] ---**
if we take any action
without Antiskill's cooperation,
**[16:54] ---**
there's a good chance
that we could be arrested.
**[16:57] ---**
Then there isn't much of
anything we can do
**[16:59] ---**
until they make their move, is there?!
**[17:01] ---**
Then we'll just have to
find this Janie girl and stop her!
**[17:04] ---**
But since we cannot find
out where she is
**[17:07] ---**
until she activates her ability...
**[17:09] ---**
We need to let the
terrorist attack begin.
**[17:12] ---**
That's nuts!
**[17:14] ---**
20,000 powered suits.
**[17:14] ---**
We're completely behind the curve.
**[17:16] ---**
That many of them is like a joke.
**[17:17] ---**
These guys are serious.
**[17:18] ---**
Not being able to prevent
it until it happens--
**[17:19] ---**
They've been preparing all
this time to mean business.
**[17:20] ---**
What is this?!
**[17:22] ---**
If they break loose into the city,
who knows the damage they'll do?
**[17:25] ---**
Sissy?
**[17:27] ---**
Miss Misaka?
**[17:33] ---**
I want to save Febrie.
Her sister, Janie, too.
**[17:37] ---**
I want to save Miss Nunotaba,
**[17:39] ---**
who is doing her best
among the enemy right now, too.
**[17:41] ---**
and of course,
I want to protect Academy City.
**[17:46] ---**
Even so,
**[17:47] ---**
I don't want to expose
the rest of you to any danger.
**[17:51] ---**
Is that just being too selfish of me?
**[17:56] ---**
If that is--
**[17:56] ---**
If that's what you say,
then call me selfish, too!
**[18:00] ---**
Mm-mm, perhaps even worse!
After all, there's all that, plus,
**[18:04] ---**
I don't want you
to make that face, either.
**[18:08] ---**
She is right!
**[18:09] ---**
No matter how
much everything goes right,
**[18:12] ---**
Sissy, you always pull that face,
and it keeps us from feeling happy.
**[18:19] ---**
That's true. Besides,
**[18:21] ---**
if we all work together,
can't we do this?
**[18:23] ---**
Yes! If all of us work together!
**[18:25] ---**
I-I believe so, as well.
**[18:29] ---**
That's right.
And when all of this is over...
**[18:33] ---**
...having everyone smiling together
**[18:35] ---**
is what it takes to
have a happy ending, after all!
**[18:48] ---**
Having everyone come back smiling,
**[18:50] ---**
without having
lost anything, is *my* dream.
**[18:54] ---**
Mm-hmm. This...
**[18:56] ---**
...is "my dream."
**[19:01] ---**
Huh? Everyone's here?
**[19:04] ---**
Say, Febrie,
**[19:07] ---**
we're about to go and help Janie.
**[19:11] ---**
Would you come with us?
**[19:14] ---**
Mm-hmm!
**[19:20] ---**
Oh, Aomi?
**[19:21] ---**
Sorry for calling you so late.
**[19:23] ---**
That's okay.
**[19:25] ---**
I know if you're calling, Mii,
**[19:26] ---**
that there's a reason
why it has to be right now.
**[19:29] ---**
Go ahead and tell me.
**[19:31] ---**
Listen, Aomi,
**[19:33] ---**
what do you think about this city?
**[19:35] ---**
Eh?
**[19:36] ---**
Thank you very much, Father!
**[19:38] ---**
Well then, if you'd be so kind!
**[19:43] ---**
You heard her.
**[19:45] ---**
Would you mind satisfying
Mitsuko's indulgence, Pops?
**[19:51] ---**
Hot! Hot!
**[19:53] ---**
I did it!
**[19:54] ---**
Oh! That's very good!
**[19:57] ---**
I'm going to let my sister eat it!
**[19:59] ---**
Isn't that nice?
**[20:01] ---**
Miss Saten, how is it coming?
**[20:03] ---**
I'm not too sure, but right now,
we have to do everything we can.
**[20:08] ---**
Hang in there!
**[20:09] ---**
Yep!
**[20:10] ---**
All right, let's work
hard and make these, too!
**[20:13] ---**
Whew, that's refreshing.
**[20:16] ---**
Everything is ready here, as well.
**[20:19] ---**
Now we can rest easy, no matter
when the head resident barges in.
**[20:23] ---**
Wait, this just looks like
one of us is sleeping, doesn't it?
**[20:27] ---**
And this side is too big...
**[20:29] ---**
They are sleeping so soundly together.
**[20:33] ---**
"Tee-hee"
**[20:35] ---**
I worked hard on that, too...
**[20:36] ---**
Good grief.
**[20:37] ---**
That's enough. If we're found out,
**[20:40] ---**
we'll both get chewed out together.
**[20:43] ---**
Let's see...
**[20:44] ---**
Sissy...
**[20:49] ---**
What's this?
**[20:50] ---**
A good-luck charm.
**[20:53] ---**
One that is eminently beneficial.
**[20:57] ---**
Thank you.
**[20:59] ---**
By the way, who
was that you called earlier?
**[21:02] ---**
Oh...
**[21:03] ---**
Just someone.
**[21:05] ---**
Ten more minutes to sunrise.
**[21:09] ---**
It has been a long night.
**[21:12] ---**
At last, this long night
really is about to be over.
**[21:16] ---**
All systems check out.
**[21:19] ---**
All that remains is to activate them.
**[21:21] ---**
Janie has reached critical phase, too.
**[21:24] ---**
It's almost like she
is aware of her own position.
**[21:28] ---**
Whether this works, or whether it doesn't,
**[21:32] ---**
it won't absolve my sin.
**[21:36] ---**
But, even so, right now,
I will do what I can!
**[21:42] ---**
Now then, the final confirmation.
**[21:45] ---**
Those in favor of executing the project?
**[21:50] ---**
Then let us begin our Silent Party.
**[21:56] ---**
You look nice in that outfit, don't you?
**[22:00] ---**
Is that what Miss Kongo bought for you?
**[22:02] ---**
Mm-hmm! This is pretty,
like that other one before!
**[22:05] ---**
The one before?
**[22:07] ---**
The one Shinobu picked out for me!
**[22:11] ---**
Oh, yeah?
**[22:13] ---**
Well...
**[22:16] ---**
It's time.
**[22:24] ---**
*What exactly is my own individuality?*
**[22:28] ---**
*Crying out on the arid wind,*
**[22:36] ---**
*I closed my eyes and asked*
**[22:40] ---**
*while searching for the dawn...*
**[22:43] ---**
All right!
**[22:45] ---**
You're not taking...
**[22:48] ---**
...one more step...
**[22:50] ---**
...beyond this point!
**[22:51] ---**
G-Go ahead and come at us...
**[22:54] ---**
...from wherever you like!
**[23:00] ---**
That way! My sister is--
**[23:03] ---**
Here, don't forget to lick this.
**[23:07] ---**
This is the last shot...
**[23:10] ---**
Up you go!
**[23:12] ---**
Just bear with
this for a minute, okay?
**[23:20] ---**
Okay, here we go!
**[23:47] ---**
"Next episode preview"
**[23:48] ---**
To protect Academy City!
**[23:49] ---**
To save Janie and Febrie...
**[23:51] ---**
...and Miss Nunotaba, too!
**[23:52] ---**
And for all of us to come back smiling!
**[23:54] ---**
That is my...
**[23:55] ---**
That is our dream!

**[00:24] ---**
Excellent.
**[00:26] ---**
Very cute.
**[00:30] ---**
Very soon, you will
go outside on your own.
**[00:34] ---**
Shinobu?
**[00:35] ---**
Remember, when you want to,
you should lick these.
**[00:40] ---**
Also, one other thing...
**[00:47] ---**
Misaka Mikoto.
**[00:50] ---**
Remember that name.
**[00:52] ---**
Misaka...?
**[00:54] ---**
It was that decision
that started everything.
**[00:58] ---**
Will I...
**[01:01] ---**
...arrive at the correct
answer this time?
**[01:07] ---**
Good grief, what a
problem sister she is.
**[01:22] ---**
Hmph, some uninvited
guests to the party?
**[01:26] ---**
But then, in the face
of 20,000 powered suits,
**[01:29] ---**
exactly what can you
do with your numbers?
**[01:32] ---**
Sorry to keep you waiting, Mii.
**[01:35] ---**
You're late...
**[01:37] ---**
...guys!
**[01:38] ---**
Wha--?
**[01:39] ---**
Who are these guys?!
**[01:40] ---**
"Big boobs"
**[01:42] ---**
All who disrupt the public
morals of Academy City...
**[01:44] ---**
And all who pick on Febrie...
**[01:47] ---**
...by the mark of this shield...
**[01:50] ---**
...you will surely
not be tolerated!
**[01:53] ---**
Don't go getting
too full of yourself,
**[01:56] ---**
because you've got Antiskill
wrapped around your finger!
**[01:58] ---**
Okay, today we'll do
this Shirai-style!
**[02:01] ---**
Huh?
**[02:04] ---**
Judgment!
**[02:06] ---**
Hey!
**[02:09] ---**
Mikoto?
**[02:11] ---**
Mm-mm, it's nothing.
**[02:14] ---**
I'll be counting on all of you.
**[02:29] ---**
Okay, come and get it!
I, Sissy's shotgun rider, Shirai Kuroko,
**[02:34] ---**
will not allow you
to take one step farther!
**[02:40] ---**
You're up!
**[02:42] ---**
Tank squads E and F
come around to the left flank!
**[02:45] ---**
Squads J through M,
switch off! Let's go!
**[02:49] ---**
Don't get in too deep!
**[02:50] ---**
Our objective is
to keep these things
**[02:52] ---**
from leaving
the premises, after all!
**[02:56] ---**
And then...!
**[02:58] ---**
Misaka will come up with something!
**[03:01] ---**
To that end,
we'll take advantage of the fact
**[03:03] ---**
that these things are running
with simple programming!
**[03:07] ---**
In other words,
once you have a target...
**[03:10] ---**
...it's a matter of
keeping tight hate control.
**[03:13] ---**
Whoa!
**[03:14] ---**
Awesome!
**[03:14] ---**
A combination water-current-control
and buoyancy-control move!
**[03:18] ---**
Miss Kongo!
**[03:20] ---**
You couldn't lay
a hand on my friends...
**[03:24] ---**
...in a hundred years!
**[03:28] ---**
There's no way you're getting by!
**[03:29] ---**
That's right!
**[03:30] ---**
This is to help Febrie!
It's also, after all, a favor...
**[03:35] ---**
...to Misaka!
**[03:42] ---**
I am kicking it up a notch today!
**[03:46] ---**
Shirai!
**[03:48] ---**
Because today,
**[03:50] ---**
I am together...
**[03:52] ---**
...with Sissy!
**[03:56] ---**
They're better than I expected.
**[03:58] ---**
Hey,
**[03:59] ---**
our attrition rate is less than 2%.
**[04:02] ---**
More importantly, where is Railgun?
**[04:05] ---**
Once you find her, turn Kosako
and Madarame loose on her.
**[04:08] ---**
Nunotaba! I'm increasing
Janie's operating ratio!
**[04:11] ---**
Keep everything regulated!
**[04:14] ---**
Why did I give Febrie her name then?
**[04:19] ---**
Is it because I believed in her?
**[04:23] ---**
No, that's not why.
**[04:26] ---**
I'm sure it... must have been...
**[04:29] ---**
What's that?!
**[04:30] ---**
Intruders?! Is that...
**[04:33] ---**
Railgun?!
**[04:37] ---**
H-How did she find this place?!
**[04:40] ---**
Why, that...!
**[04:43] ---**
Hey there, Railgun.
**[04:46] ---**
What can I say?
**[04:47] ---**
You've gone and negotiated
an invitation behind our backs.
**[04:56] ---**
Wha--?
**[04:57] ---**
Shinobu? Shinobu!
**[05:00] ---**
But now that you're here,
you leave us little choice.
**[05:03] ---**
Please accept our hospitality.
**[05:15] ---**
Just bear with this for a bit.
We'll be seeing her soon enough.
**[05:21] ---**
The espers' greatest weakness has to be
**[05:24] ---**
that they are humans who become fatigued.
**[05:27] ---**
And your case is no different.
**[05:30] ---**
I don't care if you are an esper,
**[05:32] ---**
when you're outnumbered by
this much mass, I will definitely win!
**[05:36] ---**
You're right...
**[05:37] ---**
If I was all on my own,
this could have been difficult.
**[05:42] ---**
However,
**[05:43] ---**
right now, things are different!
**[05:46] ---**
All of us...
**[05:49] ---**
...are fighting alongside each other!
**[06:19] ---**
Incredible...
**[06:21] ---**
We've planned for all of this!
Activate scenario B-7.
**[06:26] ---**
Send Kosako and Madarame, too!
**[06:30] ---**
Squads A and B,
hang in there just a bit longer.
**[06:32] ---**
Attacker espers,
go once again from the left flank--
**[06:37] ---**
Okay, next...
**[06:39] ---**
What do we do?
We can't get through to the others!
**[06:42] ---**
Signal interference?
**[06:44] ---**
I knew this would be coming.
**[06:45] ---**
W-What do we do? The commands
to my security robots aren't...
**[06:49] ---**
Really, what do we do?
**[06:52] ---**
You see? It's like we said.
**[06:54] ---**
No matter how
far we've developed,
**[06:57] ---**
this is what happens
when we become robots
**[06:59] ---**
who leave everything up to espers.
**[07:01] ---**
I really wish we could have
gone up against Railgun, but...
**[07:06] ---**
...what are you going to do?
**[07:39] ---**
You seem quite worn out, Railgun.
**[07:42] ---**
However, our hospitality is
just getting underway.
**[07:48] ---**
These are equipped with
weapons we made after analyzing
**[07:51] ---**
Academy City's fourth-ranked esper.
**[07:55] ---**
I guess you could call
it a pseudo-Meltdowner.
**[07:58] ---**
Have yourself a nice, thorough taste.
**[08:04] ---**
Uiharu?!
**[08:05] ---**
I'm all right. Miss Saten--
**[08:07] ---**
Behind you!
**[08:15] ---**
Sorry to keep you.
**[08:17] ---**
Your friend asked
me to bring this along.
**[08:19] ---**
What is it?
**[08:21] ---**
Let us handle contacting the other sites!
**[08:24] ---**
Miss Haru'ue!
**[08:25] ---**
Banri is helping out now, too.
**[08:27] ---**
We're making a network of telepaths.
**[08:31] ---**
I thought something like this might happen.
**[08:33] ---**
Sorry about this.
**[08:33] ---**
Everything they do follows the same pattern.
**[08:34] ---**
Not at all.
**[08:35] ---**
Being able to help out
Judgment is like a dream come true!
**[08:40] ---**
"Be ye prepared,
and have no regrets," indeed!
**[08:43] ---**
This is what that means!
**[08:45] ---**
Miss Saten, where's the manual?
**[08:47] ---**
For the moment, it's inside my head.
**[08:51] ---**
Mostly.
**[08:52] ---**
Okay then, here goes!
**[08:56] ---**
This is the variable-form
large-scale general-purpose
**[08:59] ---**
operating machine, built
with all the technology possessed
**[09:02] ---**
by Kongo Airlines' Academy
City Metalworks Plant No. 2--
**[09:06] ---**
W-What is that thing?!
**[09:08] ---**
It's name...
**[09:10] ---**
...is Ecaterina II! Upgrade!
**[09:14] ---**
That's what she calls it!
**[09:17] ---**
Whoa! Leave it to you, Uiharu!
**[09:19] ---**
You're sure fired up today.
**[09:22] ---**
All right! I'm getting fired up, too!
**[09:26] ---**
It's fast!
**[09:28] ---**
Game-winning punch!!
**[09:30] ---**
Whoa, Miss Saten!
**[09:33] ---**
Fire!
**[09:39] ---**
Wha--?
**[09:40] ---**
For Pete's sake,
the real thing is nothing like this!
**[09:45] ---**
Wha--?
**[09:48] ---**
Damn!
**[09:49] ---**
Lousy espers!
**[09:50] ---**
Ruining our sublime revolution!
**[09:51] ---**
Miss Saten, I'm taking over control!
**[09:53] ---**
Okay!
**[09:56] ---**
I'm a Level 0, you know!
**[10:04] ---**
Sheesh...
**[10:06] ---**
What was that
messed-up light just now?!
**[10:15] ---**
Damn it, what are
you moving on your own for,
**[10:18] ---**
Whoa! Just like our intel said!
**[10:19] ---**
you decrepit piece of junk?!
**[10:20] ---**
It really is copying Mugino.
That's just asking for it.
**[10:28] ---**
This is an ultra-complex situation.
What on earth is this?
**[10:32] ---**
Who knows?
**[10:34] ---**
So all of those fool's errands
we've been hired for lately
**[10:37] ---**
were to this end, were they?
**[10:38] ---**
Ah, damn it! They took advantage
of us and then collected data!
**[10:43] ---**
It's a disgrace!!
**[10:47] ---**
Whoo-hoo!
**[10:48] ---**
Ultra-pretty.
**[10:50] ---**
Say, Mugino, over there a moment ago...
**[10:52] ---**
Hmph!
**[10:53] ---**
We don't have time to waste on
a brat who won't learn her lesson!
**[11:01] ---**
Say, those people earlier...
**[11:03] ---**
Oh, those guys?
**[11:05] ---**
Don't make eye contact with them.
**[11:07] ---**
Let's hurry!
**[11:12] ---**
Madarame!
**[11:13] ---**
Kosako! Come in!
**[11:15] ---**
We're not reading
anything from above, either.
**[11:17] ---**
Not yet!
**[11:19] ---**
It's not as though
we've been beaten yet!
**[11:22] ---**
But you *have* been beaten.
**[11:23] ---**
You!
**[11:25] ---**
Hurry up and stop everything,
and let Janie go.
**[11:29] ---**
Shinobu!
**[11:31] ---**
Febrie...
**[11:32] ---**
I'm here, just like I promised.
**[11:36] ---**
Once again, the espers
exult in their victory.
**[11:40] ---**
Aritomi! Is that...?
**[11:42] ---**
Code input confirmed. Initiating final phase.
**[11:47] ---**
Janie?!
**[11:50] ---**
Eh?
**[11:52] ---**
Oh, my...
**[11:52] ---**
They stopped?
**[11:54] ---**
Sissy...
**[11:55] ---**
H-H-How could you do this?!
**[11:57] ---**
Don't tell me you're really going to do it!
**[12:00] ---**
You're setting the system to a runaway state?
**[12:02] ---**
If I force the connection
to break, she will die.
**[12:04] ---**
Wha--?
**[12:05] ---**
The final phase is
also known as the last resort.
**[12:10] ---**
I'm turning everything,
Academy City and all, to ashes!
**[12:14] ---**
Just what are you planning to do?!
**[12:19] ---**
Do you think I will tell you?
**[12:21] ---**
Huh?
**[12:22] ---**
Aritomi!
**[12:23] ---**
With the time you have left,
g-go ahead and tremble and die!
**[12:29] ---**
No!
**[12:30] ---**
It's still no use.
**[12:33] ---**
What I have to do is never...
**[12:47] ---**
Wha--?
**[12:53] ---**
Killing yourself to get out of this...
**[12:58] ---**
I'm not going to make it so easy.
**[13:01] ---**
There was once someone
who had plenty of power,
**[13:04] ---**
but reached out for even more.
**[13:08] ---**
Meanwhile, there was someone like you,
**[13:11] ---**
who was pessimistic
about her lack of ability,
**[13:13] ---**
and did inhuman
things in order to gain power.
**[13:18] ---**
There were also some girls who
thought of themselves as mere tools,
**[13:22] ---**
and quietly accepted their cruel fate.
**[13:27] ---**
Then there was a fool,
who was possessed of the ridiculous idea
**[13:32] ---**
that she could give her
life if it would protect those girls.
**[13:36] ---**
But stronger or weaker, higher or lower,
**[13:41] ---**
nothing like that mattered.
I made a promise to them--
**[13:46] ---**
that I would help Febrie,
and protect the city, no matter what!
**[13:50] ---**
And for me to do that,
**[13:52] ---**
I'll even save the likes of you!
**[13:57] ---**
So that's it.
**[13:58] ---**
Now, what do we have to do
**[14:00] ---**
to make the final phase
come to a stop? Answer me!
**[14:00] ---**
This is why...
**[14:03] ---**
I... believed in you...
**[14:07] ---**
W-Well...
**[14:10] ---**
You know that it's
too late to stop it now!
**[14:14] ---**
The final phase is to have 5,000 filaments
**[14:16] ---**
scattered in the skies over Academy City,
**[14:18] ---**
have the Diffusion Ghost
ability run out of control,
**[14:21] ---**
and trigger a decay chain
in the AIM diffusion fields
**[14:24] ---**
that fill Academy City!
**[14:27] ---**
The launch mechanism is inside
some construction equipment,
**[14:29] ---**
operating in stationary
orbit 35,000 kilometers up.
**[14:33] ---**
The missile has already been launched.
**[14:35] ---**
Every second, it travels seven
kilometers closer to Academy City.
**[14:40] ---**
There's absolutely nobody,
not even you, who can stop it now!
**[14:46] ---**
You're right. I probably can't stop it.
**[14:51] ---**
Not by myself.
**[14:54] ---**
A missile?!
**[14:55] ---**
Oh, no...
**[14:56] ---**
Please give me its specifications
and orbital elements!
**[14:57] ---**
It's Ruiko! Shinobu, this is
Ruiko, and this is Whee-ha.
**[14:59] ---**
I'll try to find a way!
**[15:00] ---**
Just a moment.
**[15:01] ---**
There are quite a few science
students inside Judgment.
**[15:04] ---**
I'll ask around.
**[15:05] ---**
Please do!
**[15:05] ---**
I-I'll see what I can do, too...
**[15:07] ---**
Huh? Does Febrie look flushed to anyone?
**[15:09] ---**
Huh? Febrie, where's your candy?
**[15:12] ---**
I finished it.
**[15:14] ---**
Sissy! Any left?
**[15:16] ---**
This was the last one!
**[15:17] ---**
Oh, no!
**[15:19] ---**
Let me handle that.
**[15:22] ---**
It's not about whether I can or
whether I can't right?
**[15:26] ---**
I'll give it a try--
**[15:29] ---**
the thing you told me that
nobody else could do.
**[15:36] ---**
Aw... man!
**[15:39] ---**
Miss Uiharu?
**[15:40] ---**
What's the matter?
**[15:41] ---**
Using Judgments' system,
not only is there no way to intercept it,
**[15:44] ---**
I can't even compute its orbit!
**[15:46] ---**
But with a machine having specs that high,
something so simple should be...
**[15:50] ---**
"I have heard what is happening.
It looks like it's finally my turn,"
**[15:54] ---**
says Misaka, appearing with superb timing.
**[15:59] ---**
When the missile's warhead
reaches an altitude of 30,000 meters,
**[16:03] ---**
it is designed to split
into 5,000 micro-warheads.
**[16:07] ---**
Once that happens, it is too late!
**[16:09] ---**
Which means that it must be
shot down before that can happen.
**[16:14] ---**
The only way that that is possible...
**[16:21] ---**
Sorry to keep you waiting, Febrie!
**[16:23] ---**
Ruiko?
**[16:26] ---**
Thank goodness.
**[16:27] ---**
This will buy us a little time.
**[16:29] ---**
It was right where that man
Aritomi said they were.
**[16:32] ---**
Also... in order to free Janie
from the runaway system,
**[16:37] ---**
we're going to need Febrie's help.
**[16:39] ---**
Right now, she's in a state
where she will accept no outside input,
**[16:43] ---**
but if we effect a strong
emotional bias from Febrie,
**[16:46] ---**
who is basically identical to her...
**[16:48] ---**
That makes sense. In other words,
"Love gets through," right?
**[16:52] ---**
Huh? Y-Yes, well...
**[16:56] ---**
I had Miss Kongo rig the airframe
so that all 8,092 jet points
**[17:00] ---**
will activate to a precision
of 1/1,000th of a second.
**[17:05] ---**
Theoretically, this should work.
**[17:07] ---**
But how did you get this complex
calculation done in so short a time?
**[17:12] ---**
Oh, well, you know...
**[17:16] ---**
Sorry, Kuroko.
**[17:18] ---**
I ended up having you
tag along with me this far.
**[17:22] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[17:24] ---**
Nothing could make me prouder
**[17:27] ---**
than having you count
on me here and now, Sissy.
**[17:37] ---**
Thanks.
**[17:54] ---**
They're in sync!
**[17:55] ---**
Febrie, please!
**[17:57] ---**
Febrie...
**[18:01] ---**
Big Sister, it's Febrie!
**[18:04] ---**
And this is Gekota. He's my
friend. You know what?
**[18:09] ---**
Please. I know that at this
point, it's too much to ask for.
**[18:14] ---**
But even so, please, let her
respond to her feelings!
**[18:26] ---**
And also, hamburger is so delicious!
**[18:27] ---**
This processing speed can't keep up.
**[18:30] ---**
Ah, and taking baths feels so good!
**[18:30] ---**
What's that? Access from outside?
**[18:33] ---**
"I will give you a hand," says Misaka,
**[18:36] ---**
seeking retroactive approval
while already lending a hand.
**[18:40] ---**
Why...?
**[18:42] ---**
As thanks for the fragments of
our mind we received from you.
**[18:46] ---**
Your... mind?
**[18:48] ---**
This Misaka's serial number is #19090.
**[18:54] ---**
You mean, what I did earlier reached you?
**[18:59] ---**
Yes. Moreover...
**[19:04] ---**
...those two's thought base
program is identical to the Misakas'.
**[19:08] ---**
Which means, those girls
are just like the Misaka sisters.
**[19:12] ---**
"Does an older sister need a
reason to help out a younger sister?"
**[19:16] ---**
asks Misaka, trying to
adopt the air of an older sister.
**[19:38] ---**
We want her to know, as well...
**[19:51] ---**
...how bright and beautiful...
**[19:55] ---**
...the world really is...
**[20:10] ---**
Good morning, Big Sister.
**[20:15] ---**
Shinobu!
**[20:16] ---**
Big Sister woke up!
**[20:18] ---**
Yes...
**[20:24] ---**
Good morning,
**[20:26] ---**
Janie.
**[20:29] ---**
Go on, Febrie. Don't you have
something to give her?
**[20:32] ---**
Huh? Oh!
**[20:34] ---**
Here!
**[20:36] ---**
This is something I'm giving to
Big Sister and you, Shinobu!
**[20:40] ---**
It's something that I made!
**[20:44] ---**
For me...
**[20:46] ---**
...too?
**[20:52] ---**
Shinobu?
**[20:54] ---**
There are a lot of things that
I want to have you see, too.
**[21:14] ---**
Thank you for waiting.
**[21:16] ---**
We would now like to open this year's
**[21:18] ---**
Academy City Research Assembly.
**[21:26] ---**
"Academy City School District 23"
"Kongo Airlines Test Site"
**[21:33] ---**
Febrie is doing so well!
**[21:36] ---**
Geez, Miss Saten, you promised
me you weren't going to cry!
**[21:40] ---**
Ruiko, Whee-ha, don't cry.
**[21:44] ---**
Here, Miss Janie.
**[21:46] ---**
It's a good luck charm.
One that is tremendously effective.
**[21:52] ---**
So then, overseas research
organizations will be examining
**[21:55] ---**
and reconditioning
the two of them, huh?
**[21:57] ---**
That's too bad, now that
everyone is such good friends.
**[22:01] ---**
It's an impossibly generous treatment.
**[22:03] ---**
It's almost like the record of the events
**[22:06] ---**
has been completely rewritten in our favor.
**[22:09] ---**
R-Really?
**[22:10] ---**
Electronic records are... well,
**[22:13] ---**
I think you get the idea.
**[22:15] ---**
It's just that I get the feeling
that part of the human memories
**[22:18] ---**
have been doctored, as well.
**[22:21] ---**
Oh, um...
**[22:23] ---**
Well, if you put aside
pride and other factors,
**[22:26] ---**
something like that might
not be impossible... maybe...
**[22:30] ---**
Probably...
**[22:35] ---**
Now it's my turn, huh?
**[22:37] ---**
It's all right. I'm sure I can do this.
**[22:41] ---**
I'm no longer alone, after all.
**[22:46] ---**
Right.
**[22:48] ---**
Yeah.
**[23:27] ---**
Well, shall we get going?
**[23:29] ---**
If we leave now, we'll be in
time for afternoon lectures.
**[23:32] ---**
Yes, we will.
**[23:33] ---**
I think I'll buy some lunch somewhere.
**[23:37] ---**
There really never
is a dull moment, huh?
**[23:40] ---**
Not when we're with you, Misaka!
**[23:40] ---**
Not when we are with you, Sissy!
**[23:43] ---**
Hey, what do you mean by that?
**[23:45] ---**
Ah, are you all ready for
the regional field trip?
**[23:48] ---**
Is that tomorrow, already?
**[23:50] ---**
Liberal Arts City, huh?
I can't wait!
**[23:53] ---**
Hey, come on!
What did you mean by that?!
