[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
