"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.

"#15 Promise"

"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."
