    Nii-chan, if you're interested
    in that one, you can play it.
[00:36] Raido
    What? Are you sure?
     You're not going to?
[00:39] Sister
    Yeah. I have to study for exams anyway,
    so I won't get to it anytime soon.

[02:57] Raido
    The important thing with games like this
    is to totally immerse yourself in the world...
[03:03] Raido
    Good! Full dive complete.
[03:06] Raido
    Now, into the woods!
[03:10] Raido
    So this is Grainy Crossing...
[03:13] Raido
    Is this where I sleep?
[03:17] Raido
    That's one heck of a house.
[03:19] Raido
    I hope I get to live
    somewhere like that one day.
[03:22] Tom
    That's my house!
[03:24] Tom
    Nice to meet you. I live in this here forest.
[03:28] Tom
    You can call me Tom Grainook.
[03:30] Raido
    I'm Raido. It's a pleasure.
[03:33] Tom Grainook
    You're gonna need 30 million pells
     to build a house.
[03:36] Raido
    Is that so?
[03:38] Raido
    Well, how do I go about earning money?
[03:41] Tom
    I can show you how to do just that!
[03:44] Tom
    First, I need you to gather
    some branches for me.
[03:49] Tom
    Next, fruit.
[03:56] Tom
    I'll also need some veggies.
[04:00] Tom
    Wow, that's a ton! You did a great job!
[04:04] Raido
    Thanks.
[04:05] Tom
    I really appreciate it!
    This is just what I needed!
[04:09] Tom
    These cabbages look so good.
    Just check out that sheen!
[04:13] Tom
    I'll buy them off you for 100 pells apiece.
[04:15] Sign
    Pells
[04:16] Raido
    That's what their worth, huh?
[04:17] Tom
    I'd love to pay you more,
    but in this economy...
[04:23] Raido
    There's a whole economy?
[04:29] Tom
    Look at this haul you brought me!
[04:31] Tom
    Including the table,
    5,000 pells ought to cover it!
[04:31] Sign

[05:21] Raido
    Weren't you just selling them
    for 2,000 apiece?
[05:28] Tom
    Listen, just because we're so close,
[05:32] Tom
    I'll throw in a little extra just for you!
[05:34] Sign
    Pells
[05:36] Raido
    Hey, I've got 30 million pells.
[05:40] Raido
    Finally, the cozy home of my dreams!
[05:43] Raido
    This feeling of accomplishment...
    is just the best, isn't it?
[05:54] Raido
    And that's how it went.
[05:55] Aharen
    Grainy Crossing really is fun.
[05:58] Raido
    You've played it before, Aharen-san?
[06:00] Aharen
    Yeah. You should come to my town next time.
[06:03] Raido
    Sure. Once I've got my
    own town how I like it.
[06:08] Raido
    To get the most out of living in town...
[06:13] Sign
    Buy turnips now!
[06:14] Raido

    Man, I appreciate you throwing
    this fancy birthday party
[06:29] Tom
    all for little old me!
[06:30] Raido
    You've done so much for me.
[06:34] Raido
    I wanted to pay you back somehow.
[06:36] Tom
    Raido-aniki...
[06:38] Suit
    Raido-san.
[06:41] Suit
    The girls are here.
[06:42] Raido
    Right.
[06:43] Hippomi
    I'm Hippomi.
[06:45] Nooko
    I'm Nooko!
[06:46] Girls
    Thanks for having us!
[06:52] Nooko
    Excuse me...
[06:54] Hippomi
    Pardon me.
[06:55] Nooko
    What's your name?
[06:57] Tom
    I-It's Tom Grainook!
[07:00] Tom
    Y-You can just call me Tom-tan, though!
[07:02] Nooko
    It's your birthday today, right, Tom-tan-san?
[07:05] Nooko
    How old are you turning?
[07:07] Tom
    F-Fort—
[07:09] Tom
    I'm 25!
[07:10] Nooko
    Oh, wow, so am I! What a coincidence!
[07:15] Tom
    Th-That's right! Total coincidence, right?!
[07:18] Nooko
    Well, let's have some cake to celebrate.
[07:21] Nooko
    Say, "Ah"!
[07:25] Tom
    Ah...
[07:28] Tom
    So good!
[07:30] Tom
    I don't know if I've ever had a cake
    that tasted as good!
[07:35] Nooko
    You've got some whipped cream on your face...
[07:38] Nooko
    Ah!
[07:40] Tom
    Squee!
[07:42] Tom
    Wait for me, Nooko!
[08:01] Tom
    I-I promise I'll make you happy!
[08:07] Raido
    Look how far we've come.
[08:10] Tom
    I'm so glad I decided
    to follow you, Raido-aniki.
[08:13] Raido
    I appreciate everything, Tom Grainook.
[08:15] Tom
    Right back at you!
[08:17] Tom
    This might be the happiest I've ever been!
[08:22] Raido
    You're overreacting.
[08:25] Tom
    Aniki!
[08:28] Fox
    Damn it!
[08:29] Raido
    Grainook!
[08:31] Raido
    Say something!
[08:33] Tom
    A-Aniki...
[08:36] Tom
    I wish... Nooko and I could've...
[08:43] Raido
    Tom Grainook!
[08:53] Raido
    I can't help but wonder...
[08:56] Raido
    What was it all for?
[09:05] Raido
    I'll be joining you someday.
    This is only a temporary parting.
[09:11] Raido
    Until then, Tom Grainook.
[09:21] Raido
    Oh, I should visit Aharen-san's town next.
[09:31] Raido
    What in the world...?
[09:34] Raido
    It's hard to believe this is the same game.
[09:37] Raido
    My own selfish pursuits just can't
    compare to this level of prosperity.
[09:44] Raido
    Isn't this too cool?
[09:46] Raido
    It's such an accurate recreation of reality...
[09:49] Raido
    No! It's even more sophisticated!
[09:54] Sign
    Safety First
[09:54] Raido
    This level of detail,
    the overwhelming load of information...
[10:00] Raido
    Could her ultimate goal be...
[10:04] Raido
    a full recreation of Earth?!
[10:07] Raido
    Maybe Aharen-san's grown tired of reality
    and decided to move into a virtual world.
[10:15] Raido
    I know what I said about immersion, but...
[10:18] Raido
    This level of complexity,
    and in so much detail...
[10:22] Raido
    It could break the world. No.
[10:25] Raido
    It could break the universe itself!
[10:29] Blue sign/Red sign
    Reality
[10:29] Blue sign/Red sign
    Virtual Reality
[10:29] Raido
    We're at risk...
[10:32] Red sign/Blue sign
    Reality
[10:32] Red sign/Blue sign
    Virtual Reality
[10:33] Raido
    of the real and the virtual swapping places!
[10:35] Raido
    There's a theory that if a virtual space
[10:37] Raido
    contains more info than the real world,
[10:39] Raido
    then, at that point, it takes precedence 
    and becomes reality!
[10:44] Raido
    Supposedly the likelihood of that
    is pretty low with modern technology.
[10:48] Raido
    But there's one possibility
    that could make it happen...
[10:52] Raido
    A quantum computer.
[10:54] Raido
    With a quantum computer's specs,
[10:57] Raido
    someone could create a virtual world
    that's more real than reality.
[11:02] Raido
    And to create a space like this
    with a level of detail so close to reality...
[11:06] Raido
    The risk of the real and the
    virtual inverting is serious!
[11:10] Raido
    Aharen-san, you can't take this any further!
[11:13] Raido
    If your virtual world outpaces reality,
    there's no coming back!
[11:26] Raido
    Aharen-san... I knew it!
[11:29] Raido
    She's uploaded her entire
    being to the other side
[11:32] Raido
    and become a inorganic lifeform.
[11:35] Raido
    There's no sense in getting sad.
[11:38] Raido
    She chose this. I need to accept it.
[11:42] Raido
    Just wait for me.
    I'll be joining you soon!
[11:49] Aharen
    Good morning.
[11:51] Raido
    Oh, good morning.
[11:52] Aharen
    I overslept a bit.
[11:54] Raido
    I see.
[11:56] Raido
    Your town in the game was pretty amazing.
[12:00] Aharen
    Ren is really into it.
[12:04] Aharen
    And since we all share the same file...
[12:06] Raido
    Oh, Ren-kun built it up like that?
[12:10] Raido
    Does he... still exist in reality?
[12:15] Raido
    Actually, never mind.
[12:23] Raido
    Good morning, Mom.
[12:24] Raido Mom
    Oh, good morning.
[12:26] Raido
    I'm thirsty...
[12:29] Raido
    Some milk?
[12:34] Raido
    That's...
[12:38] Raido
    ...not milk!
[12:39] Raido Mom
    Oh? Did you drink some of
    the amazake I poured myself?

[12:44] Raido
    I-It was sake?!
[12:46] Raido
    The Japanese Liquor Tax Act​ states
[12:49] Raido
    that anything containing more than 1%
    alcohol is classified as liquor.
[12:54] Raido
    And alcohol is metabolized in
    the stomach and small intestine
[12:58] Raido
    before entering the bloodstream.
[13:00] Raido
    I... am drunk!
[13:03] Raido
    When blood alcohol content
    exceeds 50 milligrams per deciliter,
[13:08] Raido
    it can result in an inflated ego
    and overfriendliness,
[13:11] Raido
    among other assorted behavioral changes
    rooted in a state of inebriation!
[13:15] Raido
    Now that I think about it, maybe 
    my ego is feeling a little inflated...
[13:20] Raido
    I-I'm heading to school...
[13:22] Raido Mom
    Okay. Be safe out there.
[13:32] Aharen
    Good morning, Raido—
[13:33] Raido
    Sup, Reina?
[13:35] Raido
    You're running early.
[13:36] Raido
    Come on, let's get a move on.
[13:39] Raido
    Or else I'll leave you behind.
[13:43] Aharen
    R-Raido-kun?
[13:45] Raido
    Huh? What're you on about?
[13:47] Raido
    Take a good look. Who else would I be?
[13:51] Raido
    See? It's me, Raido.
[13:55] Raido
    Now let's get moving.
[13:59] Raido
    The hell, Reina?
[14:01] Raido
    You make that bag look so heavy.
[14:04] Raido
    Fine, all right already.
[14:06] Raido
    I'll carry you both.
[14:11] Raido
    Hey, knock it off with the squirming.
    You wanna fall?
[14:15] Shirorin
    Shirorin!
[14:16] Tobaru
    Let's begin class.
[14:18] Tobaru
    Please open to page 42 of your textbook.
[14:21] Raido
    What now, Reina?
    Forget your book or something?
[14:24] Raido
    Fine, all right already.
[14:27] Raido
    You can look at mine.
[14:31] Raido
    Come on. Get in closer.
[14:34] Raido
    You won't be able to read it from over there.
[14:37] Tobaru
    Raido-san normally lets
    Aharen-san take the lead...
[14:40] Tobaru
    But he's being so aggressive today!
    And she looks so fidgety!
[14:44] Tobaru
    A veritable esteemed wild boy!

    Yo, Reina.
    Let's walk to our next class together.
[15:02] Riku
    Talk about scary.
    No way am I speaking to him.
[15:04] Shirorin
    Shirorin!
[15:11] Oshiro
    Something about Raido-kun is more
    intense and scary than usual today.
[15:16] Oshiro
    I hope Reina-chan's okay!
[15:19] Raido
    Hey. Oshiro, you...
[15:23] Oshiro
    H-He found me!
[15:28] Raido
    You've got burdock root in your hair.
[15:33] Raido
    You're Reina's friend, aren't you?
    Get it together.
[15:37] Oshiro
    Th-Thank you...?
[15:40] Raido
    Here. You can borrow my notes.
[15:43] Raido
    Come on, open up.
[15:45] Raido
    You're cold, right? You can have mine.
[15:48] Raido
    Watch out!
[15:49] Raido
    I can't let you carry all this
    on your own, Sensei.
[15:53] Gang
    U-Um...
[15:53] Raido
    What do you guys want?
[15:56] Ishikawa
    Th-Thanks for earlier.
[15:58] Sato
    You were a real lifesaver.
[16:00] Raido
    No need to thank me.
[16:02] Riku
    I still think the boyfriend
    seems kinda wild today.
[16:06] Riku
    Scary! Better keep my distance...
[16:09] Ren
    The pudding they served
    at lunch today was really good!
[16:12] Eru
    I'm glad to hear it.
[16:14] Raido
    Ren. Eru.
[16:16] Raido
    Fancy running into you two.
[16:18] Ren
    Raido-niinii!
[16:21] Eru
    Something seems different
    about Raido-san today...
[16:24] Eru
    He's giving off a vibe that
    makes him hard to approach.
[16:27] Ren
    Let's play, Niinii!
[16:29] Eru
    Ren!
[16:32] Raido
    Sounds good. You got anything in mind?
[16:34] Ren
    I wanna play tag!
[16:36] Raido
    All right, then tag it is.
[16:39] Ren
    Yeah, let's do it!
[16:40] Raido
    Hey, Eru.
[16:41] Eru
    Y-Yes?!
[16:42] Raido
    Thanks for always looking out for Reina.
[16:47] Eru
    I-I don't see why you'd
     be thanking me for that!
[16:50] Eru
    Ren, we're going home!
[16:54] Raido
    Gotta ask, Reina...
[16:58] Raido
    You're looking kinda red today, ain'tcha?
[17:02] Raido
    You sure you don't have a fever?
[17:06] Raido
    Doesn't seem like it.
[17:11] Raido
    Damn, your nose is bleeding now.
[17:13] Shirorin
    Shirorin!
[17:14] Raido
    You gonna be all right?
[17:16] Raido
    Clean up with this.
[17:17] Raido
    A lot of the time, when your nose bleeds,
    it's because Kiesselbach's plexus,
[17:21] Raido
    where the biggest bunch
    of blood vessels are, is damaged.
[17:25] Raido
    The best thing to do is sit down, lean
    forward, and hold your nose until it stops.
[17:30] Aharen
    I-I'm fine...
[17:33] Aharen
    My house is right there, so I'm gonna go.
[17:36] Raido
    A-All right. Sure.
[17:42] Raido
    I'm back now.
[17:44] Sister
    Welcome home, Nii-ch—
[17:47] Sister
    You seem different from usual.
[17:50] Raido
    What?
[17:51] Sister
    O-Oh, it's nothing.
[17:56] Raido
    I'm kinda starvin' here.
[18:00] Sister
    Hey, that's mine!
[18:03] Raido
    What? Were you gonna eat it?
[18:06] Sister
    H-Hey, don't just—
[18:08] Raido
    Here.
[18:10] Sister
    Y'know what?! Never mind!
[18:12] Shirorin
    Shirorin!
[18:12] Sister
    I-I'm thirsty...
[18:15] Sister
    Huh? All we've got is amazake?
[18:18] Sister
    I guess it's fine.
[18:24] Raido
    Whoa, that's booze!
[18:25] Sister
    What? It's just amazake.
    There's no alcohol in it.
[18:31] Raido
    Oh, there isn't, is there?
[18:34] Sister
    Yeah, that's what I said.
[18:35] Raido
    I see.
[18:39] Classmate B
    Raido-chan, please!
    Could you cover my cleaning duties?
[18:43] Sister
    What, again?
[18:45] Classmate B
    I'll take you out for ice cream! My treat!
[18:47] Sister
    You'd better.
[18:48] Classmate B
    Thank you so much!
[18:53] Sister
    She'd better shell out for Häaken-Datz.
[18:59] Eru
    Let's do a good job cleaning up together.
[19:02] Sister
    Sure thing.
[19:04] Sister
    I don't know what it is...
[19:06] Sister
    But I feel like I've seen her before.
[19:12] Sister
    Wait, she looks just like that girl
    who was with my brother!
[19:15] Sister
    Could she be...
[19:16] Sister
    a doppelganger?!
[19:18] Sister
    Like, when you see yours, you die?
[19:20] Sister
    Nah. That's pretty unlikely. And stupid.
[19:26] Classmate A
    Hey, Raido-san! When you finish up
    over there, could you take care of this?
[19:29] Sister
    Okay!
[19:31] Eru
    You...
[19:32] Eru
    Your name is Raido?
[19:36] Sister
    Wh-What is this? Why'd she grab my arm?
[19:38] Sister
    Talk about aggressive! Don't tell me...
[19:40] Sister
    Is she trying to rope me
    into a pyramid scheme?!

    And by grabbing my arm,
    she's showing me I can't get away
[19:48] Sister
    because she's already got
    my personal information?!
[19:52] Sister
    I don't even have any money!
[19:55] Eru
    Do you have an older brother
    who's a second-year in high school?
[20:00] Sister
    Huh? Y-Yeah, I do.
[20:02] Eru
    I knew it.
[20:04] Eru
    Your brother is a huge help
     to my sister, Reina.
[20:08] Eru
    My name is Aharen Eru.
[20:10] Sister
    Oh, you must be her younger sister!
[20:13] Sister
    Of that cute girl I saw
     with my brother, I mean.
[20:15] Eru
    Cute?
[20:17] Eru
    Did you just say Reina was cute?
[20:21] Sister
    Er, I'm sorry!
[20:22] Eru
    Reina...
[20:24] Eru
    Reina really is cute!
    You totally get it, right?!
[20:28] Sister
    Well, I've never gotten
    a good look at her, but...
[20:30] Eru
    She really cares for her siblings, too!
[20:33] Eru
    She's so calm! And an amazing cook!
[20:36] Eru
    And she always tries her best!
[20:39] Eru
    I'm sorry. I got a bit worked up.
[20:42] Sister
    Nah, it's okay.
[20:44] Sister
    You must really love your sister, huh?
[20:46] Eru
    N-Not particularly...
[20:49] Eru
    But your brother seems pretty nice, too.
[20:53] Sister
    What? How?
[20:54] Eru
    Is... he not?
[20:56] Sister
    My big brother is...
[20:59] Sister
    utterly incomprehensible!
[21:00] Sister
    He's always buying weird stuff!
    And he eats my pudding!
[21:03] Sister
    Sometimes he does stuff that defies belief!
[21:06] Sister
    But...
[21:08] Sister
    Every now and then,
    he's pretty considerate, I guess...
[21:12] Sister
    Only occasionally, though!
[21:15] Eru
    I see.
[21:16] Sister
    How do you know him, anyway?
[21:19] Eru
    Well, Reina talks about him all the time.
[21:22] Eru
    I've spoken to him myself before as well.
[21:26] Eru
    I envy you for having
    such a kind older brother.
[21:29] Sister
    I dunno about that.
[21:31] Sister
    But I'm curious... How do you think
    they feel about each other?
[21:38] Eru
    Wouldn't it be better
     to ask your brother directly?
[21:42] Sister
    We don't really talk that much.
    Not that we don't get along or anything.
[21:47] Eru
    Then why not start now?
    You're siblings, after all.
[21:53] Sister
    I dunno...
[21:56] Sister
    But, hey, you're right.
    I'll try talking to him when I get home.
[22:03] Raido
    I'm home.
[22:05] Sister
    Welcome back.
[22:06] Sister
    Hey, Nii-chan...
[22:08] Sister
    What's Aharen-san like?
[22:11] Raido
    What's got you curious?
[22:13] Sister
    I was just wondering.
[22:15] Raido
    I see.
[22:16] Sister
    Wait, what?
[22:17] Raido
    I'm just happy that my sister
    was showing an interest in my life.
[22:21] Sister
    Ew!
[22:22] Sister
    Y'know what? Never mind.
