    "A Certain Scientific Railgun T"
[01:49] ---
    While you're still alive,
[01:50] ---
    I'll be taking the data on
    that virus you injected the girl with.
[01:57] ---
    Right... That girl...
[02:06] ---
    I do not have nearly enough
    strength left to teleport her away right now.
[02:10] ---
    I see no choice but to contact Uiharu
    and request someone to pick her up.
[02:17] ---
    I wonder how Miss Misaka is doing.
[02:27] ---
    Don't do it.
[02:29] ---
    Sogiita? You can still move?
[02:32] ---
    No problem. If I put my guts into it,
    I can stop my bleeding
[02:36] ---
    and get my bones to stick together.
    But never mind me,
[02:39] ---
    you were about to charge in there, weren't you?
[02:42] ---
    There's something different about her now.
[02:46] ---
    Maybe whatever the girl who put
    this data inside my head was planning
[02:49] ---
    worked out all right.
[02:51] ---
    Are you sure? I can't tell either way.
[02:55] ---
    Even so, it doesn't look like
    she can control all that power.
[03:00] ---
    Which is why...
[03:00] ---
    I don't know what your right hand is made of,
[03:04] ---
    but that all over there is a whole lot
    more trouble than it was a moment ago.
[03:07] ---
    It felt more like it was a
    mass of compressed energy earlier,
[03:12] ---
    but that looks like something
    from another world now,
[03:15] ---
    something literally beyond our understanding.
[03:19] ---
    Let me deal with this.
    I may be able to risk my neck
[03:22] ---
    to do a self-destruct move that will smother it.
[03:24] ---
    No.
[03:26] ---
    Like I said earlier, I know her.
    I want to be the one who does this for her.
[03:32] ---
    Yeah, but...
[03:33] ---
    I may not be strong enough, like you say,
[03:37] ---
    and I don't really have
    a handle on this situation,
[03:39] ---
    so I can't say for sure that this is
    the best move. But ultimately, I mean...
[03:45] ---
    I'll just have to make up
    for whatever I'm lacking with guts.
[03:48] ---
    Am I right?
[03:52] ---
    You really are a fascinating one, huh?
[03:55] ---
    That's that, then.
[04:03] ---
    Go lay some smack down!
[04:10] ---
    A path...!
[04:11] ---
    Go!
[04:21] ---
    Behave...
[04:24] ---
    ...your damn self!
[04:36] ---
    What is this? This isn't my ability!
[04:40] ---
    This must be...
[04:42] ---
    Oh, no. If this gets unleashed, it will do
    a lot more than blow Academy City away!
[04:49] ---
    There's no way I can let that happen!
[04:53] ---
    If I can compress it down to a size
    I can cover up with my body,
[04:56] ---
    then blow it up while
    I'm holding it, then maybe...
[05:02] ---
    Him? Don't tell me
    he's thinking of stopping this!
[05:06] ---
    Wait! This isn't my ability!
[05:09] ---
    This is something my mind
    conjured up that wants to smash up...
[05:12] ---
    ...and wipe away everything
    bad about Academy City!
[05:17] ---
    So let me--
[05:20] ---
    No!
[06:47] ---
    I know that there are some really
    lousy facets to Academy City, too.
[06:52] ---
    I also know that there are elites
    controlling things behind the scenes
[06:55] ---
    who you and I can't touch.
[06:58] ---
    But to try to purge those things by force...?
[07:04] ---
    Even supposing you succeed,
[07:06] ---
    I don't think the world
    will end up the way you want it.
[07:10] ---
    You can probably think of others besides me
    who are trying to help you, right?
[07:16] ---
    You just have to change things
    a little at a time with them.
[07:20] ---
    And I'll help you, too, of course.
[07:30] ---
    But your arm! You need a hospital!
[07:35] ---
    Huh?
[07:36] ---
    Huh?!
[07:38] ---
    It works like normal.
[07:40] ---
    What is the deal with your body?
[07:43] ---
    Beats me.
[07:46] ---
    Wow, that was quite a show.
    I never expected dragons to appear.
[07:52] ---
    Awesome guts!
[07:54] ---
    I'd like to take you on sometime.
[07:58] ---
    On the other hand...
[08:00] ---
    What's up with that metal?
[08:03] ---
    Was that there before?
[08:05] ---
    "#14 Dragon Strike
    (Jaw of the Dragon King)"
[08:12] ---
    So, she's all right, then?
[08:15] ---
    Yeah, more or less.
    Not long after she was brought in here,
[08:20] ---
    the data on the virus she
    was injected with was sent here.
[08:24] ---
    I was able to synthesize a vaccine.
[08:28] ---
    It will be a few days
    before she completely recovers,
[08:31] ---
    but she should be as good as new.
[08:33] ---
    Thank goodness.
[08:43] ---
    Um,
[08:45] ---
    I believe one of my friends from Tokiwadai
[08:47] ---
    was brought to this hospital earlier today.
[08:56] ---
    Yes?
[08:59] ---
    Miss Misaka!
[09:04] ---
    Wow, so your sister is in good health?
[09:08] ---
    I am most pleased to hear that.
[09:13] ---
    Is something the matter?
[09:15] ---
    --I'm sorry!
    --Huh?
[09:17] ---
    For dragging you into all this,
    and even getting you hurt...
[09:21] ---
    Simply saying I'm sorry isn't enough...
[09:24] ---
    N-No, I should be the one apologizing
[09:27] ---
    for boasting that I would bring
    your sister back, and ending up like this.
[09:31] ---
    I am pretty pathetic.
[09:33] ---
    Still...
[09:35] ---
    ...it could have been so much worse...
[09:39] ---
    Yes, that is true.
[09:42] ---
    However,
[09:42] ---
    even if that had happened, I can assure you
[09:46] ---
    that I would not have
    regretted any of my own actions.
[09:51] ---
    Miss Kongo...
[09:54] ---
    I am still not a very seasoned person,
[09:58] ---
    so I cannot afford to lay down
    my life for just anyone.
[10:02] ---
    It was because it was my desire
    to relieve you of your anguish
[10:06] ---
    that I can consider it as such.
[10:15] ---
    Do you know the expression
    "Peaches and plums their own paths create"?
[10:18] ---
    Huh?
[10:19] ---
    Though peach and plum blossoms say nothing,
[10:21] ---
    trails spontaneously form beneath them.
[10:24] ---
    Likewise, men of virtue may not say much,
[10:27] ---
    but people naturally beat a path to them.
[10:31] ---
    That's what the expression means.
[10:34] ---
    I cannot say yet that I fully
    appreciate its true meaning,
[10:39] ---
    but by looking up to your character,
[10:42] ---
    I do think that I have become someone
    more compassionate towards others.
[10:49] ---
    I'm not all that great a person.
[10:52] ---
    That is something
    for those around you to decide.
[10:55] ---
    If, on the other hand, you tried
    to play yourself off as someone great,
[10:58] ---
    it would be meaningless
    if those around you did not agree.
[11:02] ---
    I have been all alone, going nowhere,
    trying to do just that, so...
[11:06] ---
    No, that's not true!
[11:09] ---
    Miss Kongo, to me, and to Miss Wannai
    and Miss Awatsuki, you've been, um...
[11:15] ---
    Miss Wannai and Miss Awatsuki?
    Why are you bringing those two up right now?
[11:21] ---
    As it happens, the ones who saved you were...
[11:28] ---
    Oh, I see.
[11:30] ---
    Those two did that for me?
[11:33] ---
    Wh-What do I do, Miss Misaka?
[11:36] ---
    I should feel inconsolable for
    getting those two mixed up in fisticuffs,
[11:43] ---
    and yet, I...
[11:45] ---
    ...cannot help but feel happy about it...
[11:50] ---
    Excuse me...
[11:53] ---
    Visiting hours are now over, so...
[11:56] ---
    Oh, okay.
[11:58] ---
    I'll be back again tomorrow, Miss Kongo.
[12:00] ---
    Right.
[12:02] ---
    Miss Misaka?
[12:05] ---
    I...
[12:07] ---
    ...am truly glad to be a student at Tokiwadai.
[12:12] ---
    Mm-hmm.
[12:22] ---
    "Misaka, would you like to watch
    the fireworks at that spot again tonight?
[12:26] ---
    Uiharu and Shirai and I will
    be coming too. Let's go together!"
[12:43] ---
    The Judgment girl isn't here...
[12:47] ---
    Handcuffs? These are
    meaningless with my ability...
[12:54] ---
    Why bother?
[12:58] ---
    If I'm still alive, it means that
    the project must have failed.
[13:03] ---
    I could just stay here and be rat food...
[13:16] ---
    Shokuho Misaki...?
[13:27] ---
    Misaka!
[13:29] ---
    Over here! Over here!
[13:31] ---
    Sissy!
[13:32] ---
    You've had a long day!
[13:34] ---
    Look at this, Misaka!
[13:37] ---
    Uiharu is having another crazy concoction!
[13:39] ---
    S-Strawberry monja is not a crazy concoction!
[13:42] ---
    You could at least call it quirky!
[13:46] ---
    It is the same thing either way.
[13:48] ---
    Huh?
[13:49] ---
    Uiharu, you'll eat anything
    as long as it has strawberries.
[13:52] ---
    That's not true!
[13:55] ---
    Thanks, everyone.
[13:59] ---
    Did you say something?
[14:02] ---
    Mm-mm.
[14:04] ---
    Ah, would you like a bite?
[14:07] ---
    Mm-mm, no thanks.
[14:10] ---
    Kuroko and the others' memories of me
    that were erased had been put back.
[14:15] ---
    On top of which, the events that happened today
[14:18] ---
    had been altered to make it
    harder for contradictions to arise
[14:21] ---
    and were made out to be the capture of
    a terrorist threatening the festival.
[14:30] ---
    Apparently, my boycott of the
    competition had been rewritten, as well,
[14:35] ---
    but that was not done by Shokuho
    out of consideration for me,
[14:39] ---
    but probably because she herself didn't
    want word of Exterior to be made public.
[14:47] ---
    Nonetheless, it's an undeniable fact
    that her virus was eliminated
[14:50] ---
    as a result of Shokuho's help,
[14:53] ---
    and while I thought she was a despicable
    person--actually, I still think that--
[14:59] ---
    if she has her own brand
    of justice and convictions,
[15:03] ---
    then someday, we may be able
    to meet each other halfway.
[15:07] ---
    That's what I think.
[15:09] ---
    Oh, come to think of it, Misaka,
[15:11] ---
    is your stomach doing all right?
[15:13] ---
    Huh? What's that?
[15:15] ---
    You got sick from some of the
    street stall food and upset your stomach.
[15:18] ---
    You were stuck in the bathroom all day
    and couldn't come out, right?
[15:23] ---
    You intimidated the Shokuho clique
    when they came to get you,
[15:25] ---
    confining yourself to the restroom.
[15:27] ---
    Huh? The restroom?
[15:29] ---
    Unless you're prepared
    to kill me to stop me, then move.
[15:34] ---
    The whole school is abuzz with talk of
    just how urgent things were for you.
[15:41] ---
    Fine. I'll kill you, Shokuho Misaki.
[15:48] ---
    "Daihasei Festival: Day Three"
[15:57] ---
    I'm so dizzy, my ability won't work...
[16:00] ---
    Miss Saten, you're first!
[16:03] ---
    Heh-heh, bat-handling skills
    are right up my alley...
[16:10] ---
    "Daihasei Festival: Day Five"
[16:12] ---
    Huh? You're light...
[16:14] ---
    "Daihasei Festival: Day Seven"
[16:16] ---
    The Gods of Wind and Thunder combo...
[16:18] ---
    ...is back in action!
[16:32] ---
    The Daihasei Festival is just about over.
[16:36] ---
    It feels like it's been so long,
    and yet so short.
[16:39] ---
    I ended up not getting
    to compete in a single event.
[16:42] ---
    If I had not gotten hurt on the second day,
[16:44] ---
    I could have at least competed
    with Sissy on the last day.
[16:47] ---
    What choice was there?
    You sacrificed your body to stop a terrorist.
[16:52] ---
    You should consider them scars of honor.
[16:54] ---
    Well, I suppose that is true.
[16:57] ---
    When I think about the events of that day,
[16:59] ---
    it feels like there is something
    important that I am forgetting.
[17:04] ---
    You, too, Miss Shirai?
    As it happens, I feel the same.
[17:08] ---
    I-I'm going to go buy us some drinks.
    What would you all like?
[17:12] ---
    Huh?
[17:12] ---
    Are you sure?
[17:14] ---
    Mm-hmm, to celebrate
    a well-fought Daihasei Festival.
[17:17] ---
    Okay, I'll take a Coconut Cider.
[17:19] ---
    Habanero Pineapple for me.
[17:22] ---
    One Watermelon Tea, please.
[17:24] ---
    Okay, give me a minute!
[17:28] ---
    Look at that! They're holding a folk dance!
[17:31] ---
    That looks like fun.
[17:34] ---
    I'd like to bust out some dance moves, myself.
[17:37] ---
    Though I don't have anyone else to dance with.
[17:39] ---
    Same over here.
[17:41] ---
    If only I were in tip-top shape,
    Sissy and I could be--
[17:44] ---
    Huh?
[17:46] ---
    Um... Miss Saten?
[17:49] ---
    Ah, Kamijo.
[17:51] ---
    Hey.
[17:53] ---
    Thank goodness.
[17:54] ---
    I never got to properly thank you
    for the scavenger hunt.
[17:57] ---
    Oh, is that right?
[18:00] ---
    Let me treat you to something,
    if you'd like. Nothing expensive, though.
[18:04] ---
    Oh, no, that's much too thoughtful of you.
[18:07] ---
    Thanks for waiting!
[18:09] ---
    H-Huh?!
[18:11] ---
    Wh-What are you doing here?!
    Wait, you know Miss Saten?!
[18:15] ---
    Yeah.
[18:16] ---
    She lent me her good-luck charm.
[18:17] ---
    G-Good-luck charm? What do you mean?
[18:21] ---
    Oh, I needed a good-luck charm for
    my scavenger hunt, and she lent me hers.
[18:27] ---
    Oh, the scavenger hunt... S-Sure, okay...
[18:32] ---
    Oh, yeah, she really saved my neck.
[18:35] ---
    Ah, Kamijo...
[18:38] ---
    This might sound funny,
    but in return for the good-luck charm...
[18:43] ---
    ...would you like to go to the folk dance?
[18:46] ---
    Huh?
[18:47] ---
    Huh?
[18:48] ---
    Huh?!
[18:49] ---
    Fine with me, but is that really all you want?
[18:53] ---
    Yes!
[18:54] ---
    Oh, but would you mind going on ahead?
    I'm going to wet my whistle first.
[19:00] ---
    O-Okay.
[19:06] ---
    Now...
[19:09] ---
    Oh no, the effects of the obstacle
    course just caught up to me!
[19:14] ---
    Whoa, are you all right?
[19:15] ---
    Oh, I think I might have twisted my ankle!
[19:19] ---
    Huh?!
[19:20] ---
    --It hurts!
    --No, Sissy, this is a trap--
[19:23] ---
    Ugh, it's going to be hard doing
    any strenuous activity like this.
[19:28] ---
    Oh, I know! Misaka, would you dance in my place?
[19:33] ---
    Huh?
[19:37] ---
    Wh-Why me? B-Besides,
    Miss Saten, you're the dancer here...
[19:41] ---
    It's all right. I didn't say
    anything about dancing "with me."
[19:45] ---
    B-B-But this is all so sudden...
    I'm not ready... Maybe next time...
[19:51] ---
    Oh, but you do wanna dance, don'tchu?
[19:55] ---
    Y-Yes, I do...
[20:04] ---
    Huh?
[20:05] ---
    Misaka?
[20:13] ---
    U-Um, what are we...?
[20:17] ---
    Wow, she's so stiff, huh?
[20:22] ---
    No interrupting them.
[20:30] ---
    Let's see, when the right hand
    goes up, what comes next?
[20:35] ---
    You went and saved me, again.
[20:37] ---
    Hmm?
[20:38] ---
    Yeah. I just helped a little bit
    there at the end, though.
[20:43] ---
    And there were others who were
    trying to help you too, remember?
[20:47] ---
    Mm-hmm.
[20:49] ---
    I've had a whole lot of my friends helping me.
[20:54] ---
    I...
[20:56] ---
    ...really can't stand
    the lousy way that Academy City
[21:01] ---
    sees espers as nothing but lab rats.
[21:03] ---
    But I did meet all of you after coming
    to this city, and those encounters
[21:09] ---
    are something that I treasure.
[21:12] ---
    So next time, I want to be
    the one protecting the others.
[21:16] ---
    I think that's really the least
    I can do to pay them back.
[21:21] ---
    Yeah.
[21:22] ---
    Th-That's all I wanted to say!
[21:26] ---
    Although, I never knew. To you,
[21:30] ---
    meeting me has been
    something you treasured, huh?
[21:34] ---
    Well, I mean, the way you said it,
    it includes me, too, right?
[21:38] ---
    You don't say, huh?
[21:40] ---
    Huh? Miss Misaka?
[21:43] ---
    That was your cue...
[21:45] ---
    Your time is up!!
[21:47] ---
    Oh, she jumped.
[21:49] ---
    She lasted a good while, there, too.

    "The best thing to do to
    make your way in Academy City
[23:28] ---
    is to suck up to the researchers here.
[23:31] ---
    However, I wasn't counting on having
    that girl forced on me as a result."
