**[00:33] ---**
Level Six?
**[00:36] ---**
Yes. Level Six.
**[00:39] ---**
You are going to be the
dream of Academy City.
**[00:44] ---**
Grandfather! I'm going
to be the dream of this city...
**[00:48] ---**
Yes.
**[00:49] ---**
You will lay the groundwork.
**[01:03] ---**
Yellow Marble to Marble
Leader. We have arrived.
**[01:07] ---**
Now commencing installation.
**[01:10] ---**
Brown Marble,
**[01:11] ---**
how are you coming along?
Is there a blue car following you?
**[01:15] ---**
Right on schedule.
**[01:16] ---**
Time to put an end to this farce.
**[01:24] ---**
Why don't we move right to the finale?
**[01:30] ---**
Just you wait.
**[01:32] ---**
I swear I will...
**[01:41] ---**
Wha--?!
**[01:48] ---**
What was that?
**[01:50] ---**
Geez, I don't know what your idea of fun is.
**[01:54] ---**
Just a fancy little trick.
**[01:56] ---**
What do you think you're doing?!
**[01:58] ---**
What are you two doing here?
**[02:01] ---**
What the hell are you...
**[02:06] ---**
Dr. Kiyama! Those trucks are decoys!
**[02:09] ---**
The children aren't in them.
**[02:11] ---**
They're not? Huh?
**[02:13] ---**
--Miss Saten, quickly!
**[02:14] ---**
--W-Whoa, wait up!
--H-Hey, what are you...?
**[02:16] ---**
There's no room! And you're heavy, Uiharu!
**[02:18] ---**
Please, get in!
**[02:19] ---**
I'll be your navigator!
**[02:21] ---**
Hurry! You want to save the children, right?!
**[02:38] ---**
Sissy!
**[02:41] ---**
Well now, you'll have to face me...
**[02:47] ---**
Um...
**[02:50] ---**
This will be far enough.
**[02:58] ---**
Th-That objectionable ability belongs to...
**[03:01] ---**
Let's just say that... the cavalry is here.
**[03:06] ---**
It looks like it's time for my ability,
**[03:09] ---**
"Aero Hand," to take the spotlight!
**[03:12] ---**
Miss Kongo!
**[03:15] ---**
We will be taking it from here.
**[03:18] ---**
Sissy, you go help Kiyama Harumi!
**[03:22] ---**
Kuroko...
**[03:25] ---**
All right.
**[03:26] ---**
But if you can't catch up,
you'll have to answer to me!
**[03:31] ---**
Would you say that to me,
**[03:33] ---**
knowing that I am
Shirai Kuroko, Sissy's partner?!
**[03:36] ---**
Hey! Please don't go
stealing my signature phrase!
**[03:39] ---**
--Miss Konori!
--Okay!
**[03:44] ---**
All right, let's go!
**[04:00] ---**
*Hibikiau negai ga ima mezamete'ku*
**[04:04] ---**
*yuzurenai mirai no tame ni*
**[04:07] ---**
*Meguriau unmei wo koeta sono saki ni*
**[04:11] ---**
*kono omoi kagayaku kara*
**[04:17] ---**
*Koko ja nai mirai ni omoi takushite mite wa*
**[04:24] ---**
*tsuyosa no hontou no imi

**[04:30] ---**

**[04:37] ---**

**[04:47] ---**
*taguriyoseta sekai no saki*
**[04:50] ---**
*furisosogu shigunaru wo karada de kanjite*
**[04:54] ---**
*tokihanatsu ima subete wo*
**[04:57] ---**
*Just truth in my heart*
**[04:58] ---**
*Itsu datte mayowanai yo*
**[05:01] ---**
*kesenai omoi ga aru kara*
**[05:04] ---**
*Tokiakasu shinjitsu kara me wo sorasazu ni*
**[05:08] ---**
*I'll reach the next stage to realize all*
**[05:12] ---**
*Tashika na kizuna shinjite*
**[05:37] ---**
I never imagined that
I would team up with you someday.
**[05:43] ---**
Shall we take this opportunity
to settle whose ability is greater?
**[05:54] ---**
Shortly after that other squad moved out,
**[05:57] ---**
two transport vehicles
posing as civilian trucks
**[05:59] ---**
--were picked up leaving MAR headquarters
--Huh? This recording...
**[06:02] ---**
by Antiskill satellite surveillance.
Those are probably...
**[06:05] ---**
The real transports.
**[06:07] ---**
You mean I fell hook, line,
and sinker for a decoy?
**[06:12] ---**
Let's hurry!
**[06:13] ---**
It looks like they have
already reached their destination!
**[06:16] ---**
Where is it?
**[06:17] ---**
An unused propulsion system laboratory
in School District 23!
**[06:21] ---**
Take this next turnoff to the left!
**[06:25] ---**
Ho... Nice.
**[06:28] ---**
But then, anything less...
**[06:36] ---**
Hold on!
**[06:39] ---**
...and it wouldn't be worth killing you!
**[06:46] ---**
Miss Konori!
**[06:51] ---**
W-What was that just now?
**[06:52] ---**
Come on, come on!
Flee like your life depends on it...
**[06:58] ---**
...or you're gonna get flattened!
**[07:02] ---**
That voice...
**[07:03] ---**
It's that woman.
**[07:07] ---**
Huh? Misaka?
**[07:09] ---**
W-What on earth are you doing?!
**[07:12] ---**
Go even faster!
**[07:14] ---**
You don't have to tell me!
**[07:21] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[07:23] ---**
I...
**[07:25] ---**
was wrong.
**[07:29] ---**
If I had been in your position,
**[07:31] ---**
I would have done the same thing.
**[07:37] ---**
I'll make up for my failure...
**[07:41] ---**
...right here and now!
**[07:47] ---**
My shocks were deflected?!
**[07:51] ---**
Did you think that would work against me?!
**[07:55] ---**
In that case...
**[07:59] ---**
Take this!
**[08:03] ---**
I know about that!
**[08:06] ---**
It can't be!
**[08:07] ---**
I've been apprised of everything
in the data bank about your ability,
**[08:13] ---**
including the fact that your
railgun's range is only fifty meters!
**[08:23] ---**
What a jerk!
**[08:25] ---**
Take the next turnoff left, too!
**[08:28] ---**
Incoming signal?
**[08:31] ---**
Tch, I missed? Oh well.
**[08:35] ---**
Green Marble, they're
headed your way. Crush them!
**[08:39] ---**
This is Green Marble.
We're currently engaging Antiskill--
**[08:43] ---**
You're not going to step
one foot past this point!
**[08:47] ---**
That's right. We've managed
to contain all ramps forward from here.
**[08:51] ---**
Sorry, but we're being pressured from above.
**[08:53] ---**
This is the most that we can do for you.
**[08:56] ---**
Why is Antiskill...
**[08:57] ---**
Never mind why!
**[08:58] ---**
Just hurry up and get to those children!
**[09:03] ---**
Tch, worthless pieces of trash!
**[09:06] ---**
In that case, I'll deal with it myself!
**[09:12] ---**
Huh? Not again!
**[09:13] ---**
Hold on tight!
**[09:29] ---**
Scamper around, will you?
**[09:31] ---**
Give up, already!
**[09:34] ---**
I don't care how hard you struggle,
**[09:37] ---**
you're never gonna be
able to save those brats!
**[09:43] ---**
Even so...
**[09:45] ---**
I swore that I would keep on trying!
**[09:47] ---**
I...
**[09:52] ---**
A teacher cannot give up on her students!
**[09:58] ---**
Of course they don't.
**[10:00] ---**
No matter what happens,
I'll make sure you get there.
**[10:03] ---**
That is the whole reason
why I'm here, after all!
**[10:08] ---**
What can you do at this point?
**[10:11] ---**
Just die, already!
**[10:17] ---**
--Misaka!
--Miss Misaka!
**[10:36] ---**
Ha! Big deal! I know
all of your attacks, you know!
**[10:42] ---**
In that case, let me show you *this*!
**[10:46] ---**
Kuroko!!
**[10:48] ---**
Sissy!
**[10:50] ---**
I'm able to fire more...
**[10:53] ---**
...than just coins! This is my full power!
**[11:00] ---**
What?!
**[11:09] ---**
Geez, just teleport away
without warning, why don't you?
**[11:23] ---**
Miss Misaka! Miss Shirai!
**[11:25] ---**
Are you all right? Are you hurt?
**[11:28] ---**
I'm fine, I'm fine.
**[11:29] ---**
You saved us.
**[11:32] ---**
--I want to th--
--Wait.
**[11:35] ---**
You can tell me after
we've saved the children.
**[11:42] ---**
Yeah.
**[11:44] ---**
"Academy City, School District 23"
**[11:51] ---**
Well?
**[11:52] ---**
Can you figure it out?
**[11:54] ---**
Almost there.
**[11:55] ---**
This protection is pretty tight.
**[11:57] ---**
Good grief,
**[11:58] ---**
This is because you took out
every last one of those guys, Sissy.
**[12:02] ---**
H-How was I supposed to know?
**[12:04] ---**
I had no idea that
there was no one inside before.
**[12:09] ---**
Got it!
**[12:10] ---**
In this facility,
**[12:12] ---**
there's only one area where
power consumption is especially high--
**[12:16] ---**
the lowermost block.
**[12:25] ---**
I found you.
**[12:27] ---**
Miss Haru'ue! Miss Haru'ue!
**[12:30] ---**
Miss Haru'ue!
**[12:34] ---**
Miss Haru'ue...! Uh, where
is the system panel for this thing?
**[12:38] ---**
Just a minute. I'll go look over there.
**[12:41] ---**
Please do!
**[12:47] ---**
Just sit tight.
**[12:49] ---**
We'll help you out now--
**[12:54] ---**
H-Hey, are you all right?
**[12:57] ---**
That sound...
**[12:59] ---**
It can't be...
**[13:00] ---**
Why, you...
**[13:02] ---**
...filthy little brats!
**[13:04] ---**
No way... It's you...!
**[13:06] ---**
This is for earlier!
**[13:09] ---**
Miss Shirai! Miss Misaka!
**[13:10] ---**
Why, you...!
**[13:15] ---**
What was that?
**[13:24] ---**
Ah, that felt good!
**[13:27] ---**
--Make me look like a chump, will you?
**[13:27] ---**
--It's her...!
**[13:30] ---**
This is Capacity Down, right?!
**[13:33] ---**
The sound that only afflicts espers,
like Miss Misaka mentioned!
**[13:38] ---**
This sound...?
**[13:39] ---**
What's your problem?
**[13:41] ---**
Even if you know what it is,
what can you do about it?
**[13:43] ---**
I remember her saying
the upgraded version was big,
**[13:46] ---**
and the fixed speakers could not be moved...!
**[13:50] ---**
Yeah, but they've been
placed throughout the facility.
**[13:54] ---**
Would you like to go around
and destroy them, one by one?
**[13:57] ---**
For a system to be as big as this,
**[14:00] ---**
it would limit where
its control center could be...!
**[14:02] ---**
From what I've seen
of the inside of this facility...
**[14:05] ---**
...the only place that could be...
is where we just were...
**[14:10] ---**
the central control room...!
**[14:11] ---**
Uiharu...
**[14:14] ---**
In that case,
**[14:16] ---**
do your worst. That is, if you can!
**[14:22] ---**
Sheesh, what a gabby little brat you are.
**[14:26] ---**
And here, I'm about to
show you something fantastic--
**[14:30] ---**
the completion of the ability crystal.
**[14:34] ---**
Why?
**[14:37] ---**
You're a victim of this, too, aren't you?
**[14:40] ---**
Your grandfather used you as a lab animal,
**[14:43] ---**
and had your ability run out of control...
**[14:46] ---**
And yet...
**[14:47] ---**
I am not a victim.
**[14:50] ---**
I've obtained the right.
I'm going to allow this seed
**[14:54] ---**
which was born inside of me, to bloom.
**[14:57] ---**
Don't tell me that's the First Sample!
**[15:01] ---**
The right to produce a Level Six!
**[15:05] ---**
Level... Six...?
**[15:08] ---**
That's right!
**[15:10] ---**
She is about to become
Academy City's first Level Six.
**[15:14] ---**
Using the power of these other kids!
**[15:18] ---**
Huh?
**[15:20] ---**
You don't mean... Miss Haru'ue!
**[15:29] ---**
A reception ability above
her level under specific wavelengths.
**[15:34] ---**
It truly comes in handy for me that her
ability can resonate with the ability crystal.
**[15:40] ---**
High-level Telepaths are so rare, after all.
**[15:43] ---**
Why?
**[15:44] ---**
Why these children again?
**[15:47] ---**
Why are these children
always made to suffer?!
**[15:50] ---**
Hey, I'm just going to borrow
**[15:53] ---**
the reality inside these kids' heads
for a quick moment.
**[15:58] ---**
Personal Reality...?
**[16:00] ---**
Hmph, it doesn't matter
what you call it.
**[16:03] ---**
In short, I'm extracting
**[16:05] ---**
the neurotransmitters
that control activity within the brain,
**[16:08] ---**
particularly those which
make them sleeping runaway espers,
**[16:11] ---**
and fusing them with the First Sample.
**[16:14] ---**
By doing so, the ability crystal
will acquire an inhibitor,
**[16:18] ---**
and it will be perfected.
**[16:21] ---**
The old geezer never seemed
to catch on to that,
**[16:23] ---**
and was utterly absorbed
in applying minor changes to it.
**[16:28] ---**
Now, all that's left is for me to...
**[16:30] ---**
Don't do it!
**[16:34] ---**
If you do this, and these children
awaken in their runaway state...
**[16:39] ---**
Academy City will be struck
by unprecedented poltergeisting,
**[16:42] ---**
and be destroyed.
**[16:46] ---**
That's fine with me.
**[16:50] ---**
"One who arrives at the celestial will,
without being divine."
**[16:57] ---**
That's the whole reason for Academy City!
**[17:00] ---**
Once a Level Six has been created,
this city has served its purpose!
**[17:10] ---**
Do not...
**[17:11] ---**
...give me a hard time.
**[17:14] ---**
Dr. Kiya--
**[17:15] ---**
You just lie there and be quiet.
**[17:18] ---**
Miss Saten...
**[17:19] ---**
Miss Saten...!
**[17:23] ---**
Where is it?
**[17:24] ---**
Where is that whatchamacallit-down thing?
**[17:29] ---**
You said something interesting, huh?
**[17:32] ---**
That voice...
**[17:33] ---**
Skill Out were not my guinea pigs?
**[17:36] ---**
You're partly right, Skill Out
were not my *only* guinea pigs!
**[17:40] ---**
You are *all* my guinea pigs!
**[17:43] ---**
Academy City is my breeding farm,
**[17:47] ---**
and every last one of you
kids are my livestock!
**[17:51] ---**
M-Miss Misaka!
**[17:53] ---**
I think it's time I finished you off--
**[17:57] ---**
What's that?
**[17:59] ---**
Guinea pig or not,
**[18:01] ---**
I don't really give a damn!
**[18:04] ---**
Is that...?
**[18:05] ---**
Miss Saten!
**[18:06] ---**
There's another one of you kids?
How can she move?
**[18:09] ---**
You keep your hands...
**[18:11] ---**
...off of my friends!
**[18:16] ---**
The sound...!
**[18:17] ---**
No--!
**[18:32] ---**
Fine, then. All right.
**[18:35] ---**
I'm going to blow you all away,
along with this whole facility!
**[18:41] ---**
I built this after analyzing your ability!
**[18:46] ---**
It's even more powerful than your railgun!
**[18:48] ---**
Geez, guinea pigs and livestock...
**[18:52] ---**
How much do you have to pity yourself
**[18:54] ---**
to redirect that much resentment onto others?
**[18:56] ---**
Electromaster, Level Five,
**[18:59] ---**
in this town, you are nothing more than data!
**[19:03] ---**
Yeah, you're just data, with a smart mouth!
**[19:05] ---**
Academy City is the best place
which will allow us to be who we are.
**[19:12] ---**
I can do things here
together with everyone else
**[19:15] ---**
that I could not do on my own.
**[19:18] ---**
And that...
**[19:19] ---**
You people are not human.
You're just samples!
**[19:23] ---**
That is what Academy City is!
**[19:24] ---**
...is mine, and mine alone!
**[20:11] ---**
Nice work.
**[20:14] ---**
You saved us.
**[20:29] ---**
Is that it?
**[20:31] ---**
Yeah. The program is complete.
**[20:35] ---**
And now...
**[20:43] ---**
It's all right.
**[20:48] ---**
Banri, you see,
**[20:50] ---**
says to say,
**[20:51] ---**
"I trust you, Teacher."
**[21:22] ---**
Teacher...?
**[21:25] ---**
Why do you have those dark
circles under your eyes?
**[21:32] ---**
I've...
**[21:34] ---**
been busy...
**[21:37] ---**
...with a lot of things.
**[21:41] ---**
It's true.
**[21:43] ---**
Your hair is longer, too.
**[21:46] ---**
Still, it's Teacher.
**[21:50] ---**
It's Miss Kiyama.
**[21:55] ---**
You guys...
**[21:58] ---**
Erii...
**[22:02] ---**
Thank you... for hearing... my voice.
**[22:10] ---**
Mm-hmm.
**[22:18] ---**
Let me say it for real this time.
**[22:22] ---**
Thank you.
**[22:38] ---**
I do not know what to call it.
**[22:40] ---**
Fighting a lone battle? Fighting like a lion?
**[22:43] ---**
After Miss Shirai lost
her nerve and ran away,
**[22:45] ---**
I faced the enemy before me all on my own,
**[22:47] ---**
tossing them about here,
throwing them about there...
**[22:51] ---**
Wow! Then, the one who put a stop
**[22:53] ---**
to the large-scale poltergeisting
we've been hearing about...
**[22:56] ---**
...was you, Miss Kongo, right?
**[22:58] ---**
We should have known!
**[23:01] ---**
When is it coming?
**[23:02] ---**
Any moment now.
**[23:04] ---**
I hope it comes soon.
**[23:06] ---**
Erii, where are Miss Uiharu and the others?
**[23:09] ---**
She said they would be right there,
and to go on ahead.
**[23:12] ---**
Though I have to admit, they are late.
**[23:14] ---**
It's a special commemoration day, too.
**[23:18] ---**
We have to hurry, or we're going to miss it!
**[23:20] ---**
It's unlike you
to be running late, Misaka and Shirai.
**[23:24] ---**
My word! Sissy, of all the days to sleep in!
**[23:29] ---**
Oh, hush! You were sound asleep
too, weren't you?!
**[23:32] ---**
Then again, I was surprised that Miss Misaka
**[23:35] ---**
would come up with an idea like this.
**[23:37] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[23:39] ---**
It's a truly romantic idea,
one you'd expect from Misaka, isn't it?
**[23:43] ---**
Ah...
**[23:44] ---**
I-I wouldn't say all *that*.
**[23:49] ---**
Ah, Miss Shirai?
**[23:50] ---**
Huh? You haven't arrived yet?
**[23:53] ---**
No, I don't need anything.
**[23:56] ---**
Just calling to say that
you-know-who has regained consciousness.
**[24:00] ---**
Her questioning has begun,
**[24:01] ---**
but I don't think she's
going to talk so easily.
**[24:04] ---**
