SIGN    Episode 15: What Makes a Hero
[01:37] Fake Kouki
    Why does a guy like Hajime Nagumo,
    who gives up on people so easily,
[01:40] Fake Kouki
    get so much affection?
[01:43] Fake Kouki
    It's almost like he's a hero or something.
[01:47] Fake Kouki
    I'm supposed to be the real hero.
[01:51] Kouki
    I... I don't think that!
    Stop putting words in my mouth!
[01:56] Fake Kouki
    There's no need to pretend. I'm you.
[02:00] Fake Kouki
    I know this better than anyone else.
[02:03] Kouki
    Shut up!
[02:06] Fake Kouki
    You're so seriously disturbed.
[02:09] Fake Kouki
    You're wasting your holy sword,
    recently touched up by Nagumo.
[02:16] Fake Kouki
    Or could it be that
    you don't want to use it
[02:20] Fake Kouki
    because you hate and envy Nagumo so much?
[02:23] Kouki
    That's not related at all!
    I don't hate Nagumo.
[02:30] Fake Kouki
    There you go again,
    facing away from reality.
[02:34] Fake Kouki
    And because of that,
    I've powered up... Again!
[02:43] Fake Kouki
    I hate how strong Nagumo is.
[02:46] Fake Kouki
    That strength should belong to me, right?
[02:53] Fake Kouki
    In fact, I hate everything about Nagumo!
[02:57] Kouki
    No.
[02:58] Kouki
    It's true that Nagumo
    can be selfish at times,
[03:01] Kouki
    but he did save me many times.
[03:04] Kouki
    Why would I hate someone like that?!
[03:07] Fake Kouki
    What?
[03:09] Fake Kouki
    Come on, even when he saved you,
    you felt more jealousy than gratitude.
[03:14] Fake Kouki
    You were jealous, thinking it should
    be you who swoops in to save the day.
[03:20] Kouki
    That's impossible! That's not right!
[03:23] Fake Kouki
    Not right?
[03:27] Fake Kouki
    Well, then why am I getting stronger?
[03:41] Kouki
    R-Run wild, Celestial Flash!
[03:44] Fake Kouki
    Gather, Heavensturm!
[03:50] Kouki
    Block it, Divine Armor!
[04:00] Fake Kouki
    You want to overwhelm him,
    don't you? Nagumo, I mean.
[04:03] Fake Kouki
    You want to make him kneel
    and admit that you're better than him!
[04:08] Fake Kouki
    Then you'll save the world,
    take everyone home, and get endless praise.
[04:12] Kouki
    Shut up!
[04:16] Fake Kouki
    No, I won't.
[04:22] Fake Kouki
    Straight for the throat, huh?
[04:24] Fake Kouki
    I thought killing people was an evil deed.
[04:27] Kouki
    You're not a person!
[04:34] Fake Kouki
    What's this? You're so
    full of murderous intent.
[04:40] Fake Kouki
    You know what, hero?
[04:43] Fake Kouki
    At this rate, you might lose another one.
[04:46] Kouki
    W-What?
[04:48] Fake Kouki
    Don't pretend you don't notice.
[04:51] Fake Kouki
    If I've noticed it, then
    that means you've noticed it as well.
[04:56] Kouki
    That's enough. Shut up!
[04:58] Fake Kouki
    Who is Shizuku looking at?
[05:03] Fake Kouki
    Don't even want to think about it, huh?
[05:05] Fake Kouki
    Not just Kaori, but Shizuku as well.
[05:10] Kouki
    Die!
[05:14] Fake Kouki
    Whoa, that wasn't very heroic of you.
[05:19] Fake Kouki
    Besides, no matter how much you scream,
[05:21] Fake Kouki
    that doesn't change the fact
    that Shizuku's heart is drawn to Nagumo.
[05:36] Fake Kouki
    Refusing to listen, huh?
[05:39] Fake Kouki
    You're going to deny Shizuku's
    feelings too, I guess.
[05:43] Kouki
    That's impossible.
[05:47] Kouki
    That can't ever be possible.
[05:52] Fake Kouki
    It's really that painful
    for you to admit, huh?
[05:55] Fake Kouki
    The timing couldn't be better.
[05:57] Kouki
    Are you gloating now?!
[05:59] Fake Kouki
    Look, here comes reality.
[06:02] Kouki
    What are you even talking about?!
[06:11] Hajime
    Still taking your test, huh?
[06:19] Kouki
    Nagumo... You...
[06:33] Hajime
    So, what's this about, Amanogawa?
[06:39] Kouki
    Why... What...
[06:42] Hajime
    Huh? I can't hear you.
[06:44] Hajime
    Anyway, you shouldn't be
    fighting us. Your enemy is...
[06:48] Kouki
    "Us"?
[06:50] Kouki
    Who gave you the right
    to separate me from the rest of you?
[06:54] Kouki
    Shizuku doesn't belong to you.
    Are you trying to mess with me?
[06:57] Hajime
    Stop spouting nonsense
    and finish this test already.
[07:00] Hajime
    Your enemy is over there.
[07:02] Kouki
    Yeah, I'll finish it.
[07:04] Kouki
    You don't get to order me around like that.
[07:07] Kouki
    I'll end it all right here!
[07:10] Hajime
    Yikes, I guess you gave in. You idiot.
[07:14] Kouki
    Shut up!
[07:15] Kouki
    Everything goes back
    to normal once you're gone.
[07:18] Kouki
    Get out of my sight already!
[07:22] Hajime
    Whoopsy.
[07:24] Hajime
    Calm down, Amanogawa.
    Do you want Yaegashi to die?
[07:28] Kouki
    You coward! Release Shizuku!
[07:32] Shizuku
    Hmm? What is it?
[07:35] Hajime
    How are you able to stay
    asleep in this situation?
[07:38] Hajime
    Wake up now, or I'll use you
    as a human cannonball.
[07:45] Kouki
    Celestial Flash!
[07:49] Hajime
    You're seriously asleep? How audacious.
[07:53] Shizuku
    I'm not audacious. It's just
    that your back is so nice to—
[07:58] Hajime
    Well, I don't care how you feel.
[08:02] Hajime
    Please do something about that guy.
[08:07] Shizuku
    Wait, what's going on? Why is... What?
[08:15] Hajime
    I think he gave in.
[08:17] Hajime
    Seems like he sees me
    as the root of all evil.
[08:21] Shizuku
    No...
[08:25] Shizuku
    Kouki, no!
[08:26] Shizuku
    Don't give in to your other self!
[08:29] Shizuku
    Snap out of it and overcome yourself!
[08:32] Kouki
    Don't worry. I'll save you, Shizuku.
[08:36] Shizuku
    Kouki, what are you talking about?
[08:39] Kouki
    Nagumo brainwashed you, right?
[08:42] Kouki
    Don't worry, it should go
    away once I defeat Nagumo.
[08:48] Kouki
    Nagumo...
[08:49] Kouki
    Even as a former classmate,
[08:51] Kouki
    I can't let you go unpunished
    for hurting my childhood friend.
[08:57] Kouki
    I'll take you down and release Kaori and
    all the other girls from your brainwashing!
[09:03] Kouki
    Then, they will accompany me
    as I save the world!
[09:07] Shizuku
    Snap out of it, Kouki!
    Don't let it trick you!
[09:11] Kouki
    Shizuku...
[09:13] Shizuku
    Listen, Kouki...
[09:15] Shizuku
    Facing your dark side is really painful.
[09:20] Shizuku
    But you have to accept it
    and overcome it to truly move forward.
[09:25] Shizuku
    If you want to save lots of people,
    you can't cling to convenient stories.
[09:31] Shizuku
    You are your own enemy right now.
[09:34] Shizuku
    That smirking guy over there... Wake up!
[09:40] Kouki
    Thank you, Shizuku.
[09:42] Kouki
    You're always thinking
    about what's best for me.
[09:47] Shizuku
    Kouki...
[09:49] Kouki
    I really appreciate it.
[09:51] Kouki
    Even while brainwashed,
    you're concerned for me.
[09:56] Shizuku
    Kouki?
[09:58] Kouki
    Don't worry.
[10:00] Kouki
    I'll take down that monster
    with my face on it,
[10:03] Kouki
    and I'll save you from Nagumo.
[10:05] Kouki
    You no longer have to accompany
    a guy you don't even like!
[10:10] Shizuku
    Kouki...
[10:23] Shizuku
    Kouki, stop!
[10:29] Shizuku
    Wait, I'll stop him.
[10:31] Hajime
    Yaegashi, to your right.
[10:37] Fake Kouki
    I'll handle Shizuku for you.
[10:40] Fake Kouki
    You can concentrate on your hated enemy.
[10:46] Shizuku
    Y-You! Get away from me!
[10:49] Fake Kouki
    He can only see Hajime Nagumo right now.
[10:52] Fake Kouki
    The test is in Hajime Nagumo's
    hands now. Please stay out of it.
[10:57] Shizuku
    Why should I listen to you?!
[11:00] Hajime
    Are you just going to let your precious
    childhood friend get assaulted like that?
[11:05] Kouki
    That thing is me. It won't kill her.
[11:08] Hajime
    Didn't you just say it was a monster?
[11:11] Kouki
    It's a fake me that
    copied my emotions, right?
[11:15] Kouki
    Then even if it's a monster,
    it would never kill Shizuku.
[11:19] Hajime
    You're not making any sense.
[11:21] Kouki
    Ready yourself!
[11:22] Kouki
    I won't let you have your way anymore!
[11:25] Kouki
    You will release Shizuku,
    Kaori, Yue, and the others!
[11:32] Kouki
    What...
[11:34] Hajime
    There is no bigger waste of time
    than calling a true idiot an idiot, but...
[11:39] Hajime
    I have to say this.
[11:43] Hajime
    Who gave you the right to talk
    about my woman that way?
[12:06] Shizuku
    Nagumo-kun!
[12:09] Shizuku
    Please, don't! I'll convince Kouki!
[12:17] Fake Kouki
    Let's take Shizuku out of
    the picture for a moment.
[12:27] Fake Kouki
    Come on, me. It's time to be a hero.
[12:31] Fake Kouki
    Let's rescue those damsels
    in distress, shall we?
[12:36] Kouki
    I won't take orders from you!
    I'm only going to use you just this once!
[12:41] Kouki
    Don't forget that you're next
    after I take down Nagumo!
[12:58] Kouki
    It's no use.
[13:08] Hajime
    Did you fuse or something?
[13:10] Kouki
    I don't like it, but I'll use
    whatever I can to take you down.
[13:16] Kouki
    Of course, I will be killing it
    after I'm done with you.
[13:19] Hajime
    Idiot.
[13:20] Hajime
    You just succumbed to its seduction.
[13:23] Kouki
    Chirp away as you like.
[13:25] Kouki
    No matter what you say,
    you have no chance to beat me now.
[13:29] Kouki
    Not with all of this power
    swelling up inside me!
[13:32] Hajime
    Why is it so hard to realize that this is
    exactly how you got yourself into this mess?
[13:37] Kouki
    Enough talk!
[13:39] Kouki
    Ready yourself, Nagumo!
[13:41] Kouki
    Limit Break - Overload!
[13:54] Kouki
    Don't you—
[14:10] Kouki
    Are you going easy on me?
[14:13] Kouki
    Toying with me?!
[14:16] Hajime
    Killing you would make Yaegashi and Kaori
    and the others sad, wouldn't it?
[14:22] Hajime
    It's easier to keep you alive
    than to kill you and deal with them later.
[14:26] Kouki
    Enough!
[14:27] Kouki
    You won't stay so calm after this!
[14:33] Kouki
    You...
[14:34] Kouki
    I won't allow someone like you
    to smart mouth me like that!
[14:38] Kouki
    I'll save this world!
[14:40] Kouki
    I'm the hero, the most
    righteous person in this world!
[14:44] Kouki
    Not you!
[14:46] Kouki
    No way, there's no way it's you!
[14:49] Hajime
    You're like a kid throwing a tantrum.
[14:52] Kouki
    If only... If only you went away.
[15:06] Kouki
    You murderer!
[15:08] Kouki
    You abandon people so easily!
    You're the worst!
[15:13] Kouki
    Nobody needs you anymore!
[15:24] Hajime
    Yue, seems you guys are safe too.
[15:27] Yue
    Yep, all good.
[15:29] Yue
    Anyway, what's up with that idiot?
[15:32] Hajime
    In a nutshell, he lost to his fake
    and made up a total fantasy story.
[15:38] Hajime
    He's blaming everything on me now.
[15:41] Hajime
    Plus, he absorbed his fake
    to boost his power.
[15:46] Tio
    What a hopeless fool.
[15:48] Hajime
    If he can get a hold of himself,
    he'll probably pass the test, but...
[15:53] Hajime
    Doesn't seem possible.
[15:54] Hajime
    Not even Yaegashi could convince him,
    and ended up like that.
[15:58] Hajime
    Kaori, she should be fine,
    but could you take a look just in case?
[16:02] Kaori
    O-Of course! On it!
[16:12] Kouki
    Everyone, you're here. Just wait a moment.
[16:17] Kouki
    I'll take this guy out and release you all.
[16:22] Ryutarou
    What are you talking about, Kouki?!
    What's gotten into you?!
[16:25] Ryutarou
    Wake up already!
[16:26] Suzu
    Kouki-kun! Please snap out of it!
[16:28] Suzu
    It's not Nagumo-kun you
    have to defeat, it's yourself!
[16:34] Kouki
    Unbelievable.
[16:35] Kouki
    You've already brainwashed
    Ryutarou and Suzu.
[16:38] Kouki
    How rotten are you?!
    You will pay for your sins!
[16:43] Hajime
    Your idiocy feels like a huge sin too.
[16:50] Hajime
    I'm not going to wait for you every time!
[16:53] Kouki
    Damn it, you cheater!
[16:59] Shizuku
    Wait, Nagumo-kun!
[17:01] Ryutarou
    Nagumo! Please stop!
[17:02] Suzu
    Nagumo-kun!
[17:24] Ryutarou
    What's going on?
[17:27] Kouki
    The power... It's gone.
[17:29] Kouki
    No... I haven't gotten anything back yet.
[17:48] Kouki
    Please, Nagumo... I was supposed to get it.
[17:53] Kouki
    I want it all back. Please die for me.
[18:00] Hajime
    Go and restart your life.
[18:04] Hajime
    Idiot.
[18:09] Yue
    Hajime!
[18:10] Hajime
    Yep, this is your Hajime-san.
[18:13] Hajime
    What's wrong, Yue? Was the test hard?
[18:16] Hajime
    Looks like everyone survived.
[18:20] Hajime
    Well, let's go.
[18:21] Kaori
    Wait! Wait! I have to heal Kouki-kun!
[18:30] Kaori
    You said he absorbed the fake, right?
[18:33] Kaori
    That's probably why his soul
    is seriously damaged too.
[18:40] Kaori
    I'll have to spend some time to heal him.
[18:43] Hajime
    Please don't heal him completely.
[18:46] Hajime
    It should be enough
    to just let him survive, right?
[18:48] Hajime
    At the very least, make sure
    he doesn't regain consciousness.
[18:51] Kaori
    Huh?
[18:52] Kaori
    Oh... Yeah, that might be better, I guess.
[18:57] Ryutarou
    Nagumo... I realize Kouki caused
    trouble, but... You know...
[19:04] Suzu
    Nagumo-kun...
[19:06] Hajime
    Come on.
[19:07] Hajime
    Think about how much of a hassle he'd be
    after you completely healed him.
[19:11] Suzu
    Hassle?
[19:12] Hajime
    Listen. Amanogawa couldn't pass the test.
[19:17] Hajime
    He turned away from himself,
    and decided to take it out on me.
[19:21] Hajime
    That won't change even after he wakes up.
[19:23] Ryutarou
    I guess we should be happy that he's alive.
[19:27] Shizuku
    Ryutarou, can you carry Kouki
    when I'm done healing him?
[19:31] Ryutarou
    Yeah.
[19:33] Ryutarou
    So, only Kouki failed.
[19:37] Ryutarou
    He's not going to like that.
[19:39] Suzu
    Probably... But it's all right!
[19:42] Suzu
    He can try again
    as long as he's alive, right?
[19:46] Ryutarou
    Yeah!
[20:00] Shizuku
    Thank you so much
    for everything, Nagumo-kun.
[20:04] Shizuku
    This is to show my thanks.
[20:05] Hajime
    Yaegashi?
[20:06] Shizuku
    A-Also, um... This is proof
    that what I said back there wasn't a joke.
[20:16] Shizuku
    Yue, Shea, Tio... Kaori.
[20:21] Shizuku
    I realized a lot of things during this test.
[20:25] Shizuku
    My own bad habits, and the feelings I have...
[20:28] Kaori
    Shizuku-chan.
[20:30] Shizuku
    He has Yue and the others,
    and more than anything,
[20:33] Shizuku
    it's so terrible because I know he's
    the one my best friend loves.
[20:38] Shizuku
    But...
[20:39] Kaori
    It's not terrible, don't worry.
[20:43] Kaori
    It's about your heart. You can't control it.
[20:48] Kaori
    Moreover, instead of prioritizing
    someone else like you always do,
[20:53] Kaori
    you're now trying to be selfish,
    and I'm so glad you're doing that.
[20:58] Shizuku
    Kaori...
[21:02] Tio
    Right.
[21:03] Shizuku
    I'm in love with Nagumo-kun.
[21:06] Shizuku
    Therefore, I'll do what's best for me.
[21:11] Hajime
    Let's go.
[21:39] Hajime
    Looks like we didn't
    get separated this time.
[21:43] Yue
    Yes. And that.
[21:45] Tio
    Hmm, seems like we're finally here.
[21:48] Shea
    It's pretty.
[21:51] Shea
    Is that a palace?
[21:54] Hajime
    There's no doubt.
[21:56] Hajime
    This is the end of the ice cave,
    the hideout of Vandre Schnee.
