**[00:45] ---**
--Bye-bye!
--Take care!
**[00:48] ---**
I'm sorry, Erii.
**[00:52] ---**
It's all right. I'm sure
we'll see each other again.
**[01:00] ---**
Bye-bye!
**[01:04] ---**
Banri...
**[01:06] ---**
...take care of yourself.

**[02:39] ---**
Banri and I were in
the same Child Error facility.
**[02:45] ---**
I'm shy around others,
and don't make friends easily.
**[02:50] ---**
However, I did become
friends with Banri, at least.
**[02:54] ---**
She always spoke
to me via telepathy. But,
**[02:59] ---**
she was moved to another facility,
and ever since then...
**[03:04] ---**
And yet, lately, I have
been hearing Banri's voice...
**[03:10] ---**
...saying "Help," and "I'm in a lot of pain."
**[03:14] ---**
But I don't know where she is,
or why she is suffering so much.
**[03:22] ---**
I want to help her,
but... there's nothing I can do.
**[03:30] ---**
It's all right. I'm sure
you will find your friend.
**[03:34] ---**
No, I will find her. You'll see.
**[03:36] ---**
After all, I'm a member of Judgment!
**[03:40] ---**
Miss Uiharu...
**[03:42] ---**
That's right. Despite her appearance,
Uiharu is an excellent Judgment officer.
**[03:47] ---**
That "despite her appearance"
was uncalled-for.
**[03:49] ---**
Oh, sorry, it just slipped out.
**[03:52] ---**
So please, rest assured.
**[03:55] ---**
Thank you.
**[03:58] ---**
Aren't you tired after your exam?
You should get some rest.
**[04:02] ---**
Mm-mm, I'm fine.
**[04:06] ---**
The Level Upper incident? You mean...
**[04:08] ---**
Yes. I had the opportunity
to see into the past
**[04:11] ---**
of the culprit, Kiyama Harumi,
**[04:13] ---**
and that girl she mentioned,
Edasaki, was in it.
**[04:16] ---**
An induced burst experiment,
to analyze the law of runaway abilities.
**[04:21] ---**
Imagine, such an
experiment being conducted...
**[04:24] ---**
As I remember, this old man,
named Kihara, was the one who oversaw it.
**[04:29] ---**
Kihara? You mean Kihara Gensei...?
**[04:32] ---**
Who is that?
**[04:34] ---**
A scientist. A famous one, in some regards.
**[04:37] ---**
He's what you might call a "mad scientist."
**[04:39] ---**
Knowing him, he wouldn't
be above human experimentation.
**[04:43] ---**
Word is that his whereabouts
are currently unknown, though.
**[04:47] ---**
If that experiment actually took place,
**[04:49] ---**
then the child subjects might
be the source of the poltergeisting.
**[04:54] ---**
What do you mean?
**[04:56] ---**
That those children
have become runaway espers.
**[05:00] ---**
But I'm sure she said that those
children are still asleep, even now.
**[05:04] ---**
What if their abilities were
out of control, even unconscious?
**[05:08] ---**
Oh, no...
**[05:09] ---**
You are saying that it
is not intentional tampering,
**[05:11] ---**
but that they are unconsciously
causing the poltergeisting?
**[05:14] ---**
It is a possibility.
Where are the children now?
**[05:18] ---**
Following the incident, Antiskill
has been searching for them,
**[05:21] ---**
but they have not
yet discovered them.
**[05:23] ---**
I see. Well, finding them
has to come first, right?
**[05:28] ---**
Today's lucky color is pink.
**[05:33] ---**
That's a good sign, huh?
**[05:38] ---**
H-Hold on a second.
**[05:40] ---**
So, you're saying that Edasaki
was once one of Kiyama's students,
**[05:43] ---**
and Edasaki and company are
the ones causing the poltergeisting?
**[05:47] ---**
Yes, though it is only a hypothesis.
**[05:50] ---**
Until we find those children,
we won't know anything.
**[05:53] ---**
But how are we supposed to find them?
**[05:56] ---**
Well...
**[06:00] ---**
That's it. All we have to do
is pluck it out of the computer.
**[06:03] ---**
You're on, Uiharu!
**[06:07] ---**
Right, Uiharu?
**[06:09] ---**
Of course I will look for
them. I'll look, but...
**[06:14] ---**
With Miss Haru'ue cleared,
are you going to suspect her friend, next?
**[06:22] ---**
Would you cut it out, already!
**[06:34] ---**
Those children are asking for help.
**[06:40] ---**
Sissy?
**[06:42] ---**
You certainly have been in there a while.
**[06:44] ---**
Mm-hmm. I've just been thinking.
**[06:47] ---**
Well then, all right.
**[06:49] ---**
What about you?
**[06:51] ---**
Aren't you going to make up with Uiharu?
**[06:55] ---**
I cannot blame Uiharu for being upset.
**[06:59] ---**
However,
**[07:00] ---**
as a Judgment officer,
I have done nothing wrong.
**[07:06] ---**
But Uiharu probably feels betrayed.
**[07:11] ---**
Even so, I believe that she is certain...
**[07:17] ---**
...to understand--
**[07:22] ---**
Don't try to smooth-talk
your way in here!
**[07:25] ---**
Huh? Was it not the
right time for me to come in?
**[07:27] ---**
Shut up!
**[07:31] ---**
Here.
**[07:31] ---**
Some get-well snacks.
**[07:34] ---**
They're from a time-honored
*taiyaki* shop in School District 8.
**[07:38] ---**
You went that far away for them?
**[07:39] ---**
You'll understand once you try one.
**[07:41] ---**
This *taiyaki* is the best in
all of Academy City.
**[07:44] ---**
Oh, and they're all red sweet-bean.
Any other way is just wrong.
**[07:47] ---**
Oh, they're still warm.
**[07:51] ---**
Actually...
**[07:53] ---**
That's my ability.
**[07:56] ---**
By doing this, I can maintain
the temperature of things that I touch.
**[08:00] ---**
But I can't hold anything that's too hot,
**[08:03] ---**
so moderately warm things
are the most I can handle.
**[08:07] ---**
I haven't even told Miss Misaka
and the others about this.
**[08:11] ---**
It's in return for you telling me
what your ability is, Miss Haru'ue.
**[08:20] ---**
S-So...
**[08:21] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[08:24] ---**
It's delicious.
**[08:29] ---**
They're delicious, all right.
**[08:33] ---**
According to Kiyama's deposition,
**[08:35] ---**
there were ten human
experimentation subjects.
**[08:38] ---**
All of them assumed a vegetative state,
**[08:40] ---**
and they were divided up and taken in
**[08:42] ---**
by treatment centers across Academy City.
**[08:43] ---**
But they're not there, right?
**[08:45] ---**
Right. They were repeatedly transferred,
**[08:48] ---**
and somewhere along the way,
the trail disappears.
**[08:50] ---**
Yeah...
**[08:52] ---**
How about a quick break?
**[08:56] ---**
No, thanks.
**[09:07] ---**
Huh? Where are you going?
**[09:09] ---**
Oh, no place special.
**[09:13] ---**
Hey, are you thirsty?
**[09:18] ---**
Oh, you know,
it's hard to be around them.
**[09:21] ---**
I know. We've kind of
become a train wreck, huh?
**[09:27] ---**
We have to find Miss Edasaki.
**[09:30] ---**
Both for Miss Haru'ue's sake,
and for Uiharu's.
**[09:34] ---**
Not to mention, for our sake.
**[09:38] ---**
You're right.
**[09:41] ---**
I wonder who that is.
**[09:42] ---**
Yes, Misaka.
**[09:45] ---**
Kiyama Harumi is out on bail?!
**[09:47] ---**
Yes.
**[09:48] ---**
I went to the detention center,
**[09:49] ---**
to speak with her about these
experiments. When I got there...
**[09:53] ---**
After everything she did,
they granted her bail?
**[09:57] ---**
I don't know the specifics,
but it looks that way.
**[10:02] ---**
That's nuts.
**[10:04] ---**
I guess the thread connecting
us to the children has been cut.
**[10:07] ---**
Huh? But the reason
why Kiyama did all those things
**[10:12] ---**
was to rescue the children, right?
**[10:14] ---**
Then for her to now
use those children like this is...
**[10:18] ---**
It's not too surprising.
**[10:20] ---**
The woman even used the students'
desire to increase their abilities.
**[10:29] ---**
No, thanks.
**[10:30] ---**
How about you stop playing the martyr?
**[10:33] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[10:37] ---**
Miss Uiharu, I'm surprised
that with all you're doing,
**[10:39] ---**
you haven't tracked them down.
**[10:41] ---**
I'm not done.
**[10:42] ---**
There is still some data I have yet to trace.
**[10:48] ---**
Say, what's this, here?
**[10:50] ---**
The possibility of mass
outbreaks of RSPK Syndrome
**[10:53] ---**
due to AIM diffusion field resonance?
**[10:58] ---**
Resonance?
**[10:59] ---**
Yes. The resonance
of the AIM diffusion fields
**[11:03] ---**
of similarly-typed espers with each other.
**[11:07] ---**
You start with one runaway
esper being tampered with, after which,
**[11:10] ---**
espers of the same type resonating
with them, in rapid succession.
**[11:15] ---**
Moreover, these similar
types can be quite dangerous...
**[11:18] ---**
Say, Sissy, in your case,
**[11:21] ---**
they would include the ability
to manipulate electrical fields,
**[11:23] ---**
and the ability to
manipulate magnetic fields.
**[11:27] ---**
So in short, they resonate
with multiple espers.
**[11:30] ---**
So then...
**[11:31] ---**
You could say the same
thing about the ten Child Errors
**[11:34] ---**
who have now gone missing.
**[11:36] ---**
If all of their runaway
abilities have been activated,
**[11:41] ---**
their sphere of influence among
all other students...
**[11:44] ---**
...would reach as high
as seventy-eight percent.
**[11:46] ---**
Seventy-eight percent?! That would mean...
**[11:49] ---**
Poltergeisting on a scale
that could conceivably tear apart
**[11:52] ---**
the whole city would occur.
**[11:54] ---**
But this thesis may not be correct.
**[11:57] ---**
Please take a close look at the author.
**[12:00] ---**
"Kihara Gensei"
**[12:00] ---**
Kihara Gensei?
**[12:01] ---**
I checked into this man, as well.
**[12:03] ---**
His whereabouts are unknown,
just as Miss Therestina said.
**[12:07] ---**
All of the associated research
facilities are shut down, as well.
**[12:11] ---**
And all of his data has been scattered.
**[12:11] ---**
"Advanced Education Bureau"
**[12:14] ---**
Is something the matter?
**[12:16] ---**
Huh? Uh-uh. Not really.
**[12:21] ---**
Ah! Sissy! That is too rough!
**[12:26] ---**
Much as I'd like to tear into
whatever it is she's dreaming...
**[12:35] ---**
Forgive me.
**[12:42] ---**
All right, my disguise is complete.
**[12:47] ---**
"Advanced Education Bureau"
"Entranceway"
**[12:57] ---**
If the power isn't even on,
I didn't need this, huh?
**[13:09] ---**
No doubt about it, this is it.
**[13:12] ---**
Sure enough, swing and a miss.
**[13:18] ---**
There is nothing left here.
**[13:20] ---**
Yes, I am pulling out.
**[13:23] ---**
#6 Level 6
**[13:24] ---**
It's her!
**[13:30] ---**
It's you.
**[13:31] ---**
I knew it. Kiyama Harumi.
**[13:34] ---**
Did you need something--
**[13:35] ---**
Are these latest events your doing, too?
**[13:40] ---**
What would you do if they are?
**[13:42] ---**
There's no way I can
let you get away with it!
**[13:49] ---**
Whoa, hang on, what is this?!
**[13:52] ---**
Well, that's that.
**[13:56] ---**
You really went and did it.
**[13:57] ---**
Imagine, sending an electric shock
through the dead security system...
**[14:01] ---**
That's not what I meant to do.
**[14:03] ---**
But never mind me,
what were you doing there?
**[14:06] ---**
How did you get out on bail?
What's your objective?
**[14:10] ---**
Every little lady who sits in my car
**[14:13] ---**
always asks me questions
with a stern look on her face.
**[14:16] ---**
Huh?
**[14:17] ---**
Sorry, but the questions
will have to come later.
**[14:28] ---**
"Staff Entrance"
"New Hospital Ward 3"
**[14:35] ---**
What is this place?
**[14:36] ---**
This way.
**[14:46] ---**
What is this?
**[14:48] ---**
If you've peeked through my
memories, you should know.
**[14:52] ---**
These...
**[14:54] ---**
...are my students.
**[14:58] ---**
Then sure enough, you *are
*the one causing the poltergeisting!
**[15:04] ---**
Yes.
**[15:06] ---**
However,
**[15:08] ---**
there's kind of a long story behind it.
**[15:11] ---**
Also, pardon me for saying so,
but this is a hospital;
**[15:16] ---**
could you please refrain from
any electric shocks?
**[15:20] ---**
I remember you!
**[15:22] ---**
It's been a long time, huh?
**[15:25] ---**
W-What in the world is going on here?!
**[15:30] ---**
Kihara Gensei.
**[15:33] ---**
All of this started with him, right?
**[15:36] ---**
Allow me to venture to ask,
**[15:38] ---**
what is our ultimate purpose?
**[15:42] ---**
For what reason does Academy City exist?
**[15:46] ---**
Yes, it is for no other
reason than the creation
**[15:49] ---**
of a Level 6, a being beyond mankind.
**[15:53] ---**
Within the brains of runaway espers,
**[15:56] ---**
signal pathways form that
differ from a normal neural network,
**[16:00] ---**
and various neurotransmitters
and hormones are secreted abnormally.
**[16:06] ---**
By extracting those secretions,
condensing, and refining them,
**[16:10] ---**
an ability crystal like this one is produced.
**[16:13] ---**
By administering this
to a specially-selected esper,
**[16:17] ---**
we can produce a Level 6.
**[16:20] ---**
This ability crystal will
be the scientific torch
**[16:22] ---**
that lights the way for us to attain
**[16:25] ---**
"the one who arrives at the
celestial will, without being divine,"
**[16:29] ---**
or "SYSTEM," after all these
years of being bound in darkness.
**[16:41] ---**
Do you really think...
**[16:43] ---**
...you can produce a Level 6 with that?
**[16:47] ---**
Of course I do.
**[16:49] ---**
Really? Are you not needlessly
inviting impaired consciousness,
**[16:53] ---**
and inducing some serious side effects?
**[16:56] ---**
My experiments have
produced consistent results.
**[17:00] ---**
And how many have
fallen victim to you, to that end?
**[17:04] ---**
Victims? There are no victims in my research.
**[17:08] ---**
No way there could be.
**[17:12] ---**
I cannot say I know how *he
*regarded those people,
**[17:17] ---**
but there *were* victims.
**[17:20] ---**
I came to be aware of
the facts concerning the case,
**[17:25] ---**
and then, became convinced.
**[17:25] ---**
"Kiyama Harumi"
"Confession Statement 01"
**[17:28] ---**
The Child Errors that
Kiyama was trying to save
**[17:31] ---**
were used as the test
subjects for the "ability crystal."
**[17:36] ---**
Even the burst experiment,
**[17:38] ---**
to analyze the law of runaway abilities,
which I mentioned to you,
**[17:41] ---**
was for expediency's sake.
**[17:44] ---**
The experiment you saw
was a dosing of the ability crystals.
**[17:49] ---**
It couldn't be...
**[17:50] ---**
All this, over something like Level 6,
which you haven't got the first clue about?
**[17:55] ---**
And because of that screwed-up experiment,
**[17:57] ---**
these children have ended up like this?!
**[18:05] ---**
All I can do, as a doctor,
is to save these children.
**[18:10] ---**
Luckily, it did not take too
much time to get them all together.
**[18:15] ---**
My name carries a certain
amount of weight in this town, you see.
**[18:19] ---**
After that, I needed to speak to
a specialist about how to revive them.
**[18:23] ---**
And that's how you made bail.
**[18:25] ---**
I'm the one who asked for such a huge favor.
**[18:28] ---**
I'm grateful to the doctor.
**[18:30] ---**
Thanks to being allowed to use this facility,
**[18:32] ---**
I have a rough idea
of how to revive the children.
**[18:35] ---**
Then, you can save them?
**[18:36] ---**
Nope, another problem has arisen.
**[18:40] ---**
Problem?
**[18:41] ---**
As they get close to awakening,
**[18:43] ---**
their AIM diffusion field
readings have abnormal values.
**[18:46] ---**
Meaning...?
**[18:48] ---**
Their abilities are out of control.
**[18:50] ---**
They also triggered cases of
multiple simultaneous RSPK Syndrome.
**[18:54] ---**
Why?
**[18:56] ---**
His research had been ongoing.
**[18:59] ---**
Going by the ability crystal I knew of,
**[19:02] ---**
they shouldn't have caused any
poltergeisting. However,
**[19:07] ---**
with an upgraded ability crystal...
**[19:11] ---**
He has turned these
children into runaway espers,
**[19:14] ---**
even as they lie here asleep.
**[19:17] ---**
Then, if you were to try
to wake these children up...
**[19:20] ---**
Yeah,
**[19:21] ---**
it would cause poltergeisting.
**[19:25] ---**
Isn't there some other way?
**[19:28] ---**
I am developing some vaccine software
**[19:30] ---**
that will bring their runaway
abilities under control, but...
**[19:34] ---**
the building block of an ability crystal
**[19:37] ---**
is called the "First Sample,"
**[19:39] ---**
a refined component derived
**[19:41] ---**
from the very first human
experiment test subject.
**[19:44] ---**
For me to complete the vaccine software,
I must analyze that data.
**[19:49] ---**
So then, the reason you
were at that laboratory back there...
**[19:52] ---**
I was looking for that data.
**[19:55] ---**
There wasn't anything left there, though.
**[19:59] ---**
But I am not about to give up.
**[20:02] ---**
That data is indispensable
in ability crystal research.
**[20:07] ---**
There's no way something
that important would be discarded.
**[20:10] ---**
It must be out there, somewhere.
**[20:13] ---**
I will do whatever it takes to find it.
**[20:18] ---**
And if you are unable to find it?
**[20:23] ---**
Then I will awaken the children.
**[20:26] ---**
Even knowing that it will
cause poltergeisting?!
**[20:29] ---**
I cannot allow these
children to sleep any longer!
**[20:31] ---**
But even so...
**[20:34] ---**
you can't...
**[20:35] ---**
Yes.
**[20:36] ---**
I won't let you.
**[20:39] ---**
Miss Therestina?
**[20:41] ---**
Sorry.
**[20:42] ---**
I followed you here.
**[20:44] ---**
What the...?
**[20:46] ---**
Multi Active Rescue.
We're taking the children into custody.
**[20:50] ---**
Please do as we instruct.
**[20:53] ---**
Is that an order?
**[20:54] ---**
Yes. As a rescue unit,
**[20:56] ---**
we will emphatically prevent any situation
which will do harm to Academy City.
**[21:00] ---**
I have gotten a warrant, but personally,
**[21:03] ---**
I'm hoping you will turn
them over voluntarily.
**[21:07] ---**
This looks genuine.
**[21:09] ---**
Please, do not worry.
**[21:11] ---**
We are specialists when
it comes to lifesaving.
**[21:14] ---**
We have a facility all ready
to secure and treat the espers.
**[21:18] ---**
But...
**[21:19] ---**
We can also lawfully access
data that you are unable to access.
**[21:25] ---**
There is also a good possibility
**[21:27] ---**
that we can acquire data on the
"First Sample" that you mentioned.
**[21:40] ---**
Secure them.
**[21:45] ---**
Wait!
**[21:52] ---**
What do you think you're doing?
**[21:54] ---**
You're the one who said,
if I didn't like it, come and stop you.
**[21:58] ---**
Move! I am the only one
who can save those children!
**[22:01] ---**
You haven't saved them, have you?!
**[22:04] ---**
You've used the Level Upper,
and caused all that poltergeisting,
**[22:09] ---**
but you haven't saved a single one of them.
**[22:13] ---**
I'm so close...
I'm just one step away... so...
**[22:18] ---**
Miss Edasaki is right now asking for help.
**[22:23] ---**
Miss Haru'ue--my friend,
**[22:28] ---**
can hear her voice.
**[22:40] ---**
Carry them out.
**[22:45] ---**

#23 What Is It You See
In Your Eyes Right Now?
**[24:02] ---**
No choice but to strip down.
Now then, next time...
**[24:05] ---**
Would you pick up on the situation, already?
**[24:07] ---**
We're getting to the climax!
