**[01:34] Shizuka**
Come to think of it... You actually listen
to rock music, even though you're rich.
**[01:40] Shizuka**
I never got to listen to it.
**[01:44] Teratsuki**
I see. So you're the sheltered type.
**[01:48] Shizuka**
Yeah. Honestly, I hate it.
**[01:52] Shizuka**
My dad's not even that rich.
**[01:53] Shizuka**
He just owns a small business, but he
still treats me like a rich daughter.
**[01:59] Shizuka**
Actually, I'm more like some fancy
French doll than a daughter.
**[02:02] Shizuka**
As for my mother...
**[02:05] Shizuka**
This feels weird, King of Distortion.
**[02:09] Shizuka**
That's your name, right?
**[02:13] Teratsuki**
You can call me whatever you'd like.
**[02:15] Shizuka**
Right.
**[02:17] Shizuka**
Well, my mother—along with
my father, and myself, too—
**[02:24] Shizuka**
We all hated it when I became a mother.
**[02:27] Shizuka**
When I got pregnant with
Makoto, I was only twenty.
**[02:31] Shizuka**
I didn't know whose kid he was,
but out of all the relationships I'd had,
**[02:37] Shizuka**
you're the only one
I wanted to be his father.
**[02:43] Teratsuki**
I see. So, how much do you want?
**[02:47] Shizuka**
Th-That's not why I brought this up!
**[02:48] Teratsuki**
I'll give you as much as you'd like,
**[02:50] Teratsuki**
but I refuse to acknowledge
the child as my own or marry you.
**[02:55] Teratsuki**
I don't have citizenship, so city hall
wouldn't accept it, anyway.
**[03:01] Teratsuki**
I don't know whose kid it is,
but it also doesn't really matter.
**[03:06] Shizuka**
What's that supposed to mean?
**[03:08] Teratsuki**
I can't have children.
**[03:12] Shizuka**
I'll tell the media about this!
Your reputation will be ruined!
**[03:17] Teratsuki**
Let me just warn you...
I really wouldn't do that.
**[03:21] Teratsuki**
That would put your life in danger.
**[03:23] Shizuka**
As if I'd fall for a bluff like that.
**[03:25] Teratsuki**
If only I were bluffing...
**[03:28] Teratsuki**
So, going back to the subject of money...
**[03:31] Teratsuki**
This is your chance. I really encourage
you to take as much as you can from me.
**[03:35] Teratsuki**
You can never have enough money
when it comes to raising a child.
**[03:41] Teratsuki**
You're not going to say you
don't need any money, are you?
**[03:45] Shizuka**
You're not going to tell me not to have it?
**[03:48] Teratsuki**
Is that what you want to hear?
**[03:51] Teratsuki**
If you don't want to
have it, I won't stop you,
**[03:54] Teratsuki**
but I personally think that'd be a waste.
**[03:58] Shizuka**
Even though I don't even
know who the father is?
**[04:00] Teratsuki**
Then just marry anyone you want.
**[04:04] Teratsuki**
That won't change my mind
about giving you money.
**[04:07] Teratsuki**
I'd act now if I were you, though.
**[04:09] Teratsuki**
In a few years... maybe six?
I'll probably be disposed of.
**[04:15] Shizuka**
Huh?
**[04:16] Teratsuki**
Then I won't be able to pay you.
**[04:18] Teratsuki**
Of course, I don't intend
to go without a fight.
**[04:23] Teratsuki**
I plan to leave one last parting gift.
**[04:29] Shizuka**
* He had such a serious expression*
* that I couldn't say anything.*
**[04:35] Shizuka**
* After that, I took Teratsuki's*
* money and gave birth to Makoto.*
**[04:42] Shizuka**
* I thought the best way to get him back*
* was to raise Makoto to be a great person.*
**[04:49] Shizuka**
*But then Teratsuki died.*
**[04:53] Shizuka**
*Not in the six years that he predicted,*
**[04:56] Shizuka**
*but in eight.*
**[04:59] Shizuka**
* And now, Teratsuki is sitting*
* next to me, just like before.*
**[05:06] Teratsuki**
You don't like your mother?
**[05:07] Shizuka**
That's not it. She doesn't like *me*.
**[05:11] Teratsuki**
That's not very nice.
**[05:15] Shizuka**
After I started raising my
son, I started to realize
**[05:17] Shizuka**
that there were things my
mother never did for me.
**[05:23] Teratsuki**
But you're giving your child the proper
love and care that he deserves.
**[05:29] Teratsuki**
That's great.
**[05:33] Shizuka**
Hey, what's your deal?
What are you trying to do?
**[05:38] Shizuka**
I mean... This is all your doing, right?
**[05:42] Shizuka**
You planned all of this,
didn't you, Kyouichirou-san?
**[05:45] Teratsuki**
I'm not so sure about that.
**[05:47] Shizuka**
Well, who else is there?
**[05:49] Teratsuki**
Besides, when did I ever say that
I was actually Teratsuki Kyouichirou?
**[05:54] Shizuka**
Huh?
**[05:55] Teratsuki**
You only came to this world
because you wanted to.
**[05:59] Teratsuki**
Who I am has nothing to do with you.
**[06:04] Shizuka**
Then you really don't
care what happens to me?
**[06:09] Shizuka**
Just like my mother...
**[06:13] Shizuka**
I was in love with you.
**[06:16] Shizuka**
It's true. I really, really loved you.
**[06:20] Shizuka**
I couldn't say it back then, but...
**[06:23] Teratsuki**
Is it just that you couldn't say it?
**[06:25] Teratsuki**
Maybe that's what you thought you felt
now that you're looking back on it.
**[06:29] Shizuka**
Why does that matter?
**[06:31] Shizuka**
I just want to throw everything out.
**[06:36] Shizuka**
I was such a fool, all this time...
**[06:42] Shizuka**
Wait a second! Is this really in the past?
**[06:46] Shizuka**
Where's Makoto? What happened to him?
**[06:49] Shizuka**
Does this mean he's not going to be born?
**[06:52] Teratsuki**
Who knows? I'm not sure.
**[06:55] Teratsuki**
You might actually get your wish.
**[07:00] Shizuka**
What do you mean by that?
**[07:03] Shizuka**
You can't mean...
**[07:05] Shizuka**
that I could possibly make
Makoto your real son?
**[07:10] Teratsuki**
Who knows? I'm not sure.
**[07:18] Sakiko**
* I feel like it's been a while since*
* I started looking for Boogiepop.*
**[07:28] Hinako**
Sakiko! I see that you give up
as easily as ever. Here.
**[07:34] Sakiko**
Well, what am I supposed to do?
**[07:37] Sakiko**
I'm not as smart as you, Hina-chan.
**[07:48] Sakiko**
Huh?
**[07:49] Hinako**
What is it?
**[07:50] Sakiko**
It's just... Is this where we were?
**[07:54] Hinako**
What's that supposed to mean?
**[07:56] Sakiko**
Well, I mean...
**[07:58] Hinako**
What are you talking about?
**[08:00] Sakiko**
Never mind, it's nothing.
**[08:03] Sakiko**
I'm just tired and a little out of it.
**[08:05] Hinako**
You never change, Sakiko.
**[08:08] Sakiko**
Neither do you, Hina-chan.
But you're so pretty now.
**[08:13] Hinako**
Really? Well, thank you.
**[08:17] Sakiko**
* The Hina-chan I knew was a*
* really lively eleven-year-old girl.*
**[08:21] Sakiko**
*She was popular and always cheerful.*
**[08:25] Hinako**
But you're really pretty now, too, Sakiko.
**[08:28] Hinako**
I bet you're really popular.
**[08:30] Sakiko**
I'm not.
**[08:32] Sakiko**
All the guys interested in me are losers.
**[08:35] Sakiko**
Even the guy I was with today
couldn't figure anything out.
**[08:40] Hinako**
I think he just wanted to have fun with you.
**[08:44] Sakiko**
He just doesn't know when to stop, though.
**[08:46] Hinako**
Oh, come on. You feel something for him, right?
**[08:50] Sakiko**
No way!
**[08:52] Sakiko**
I'm sure you'll understand once
you start dating, Hina-cha—
**[08:57] Hinako**
Well, I've never been on a date, so...
**[09:01] Sakiko**
Hey, Hina-chan... When did that happen?
**[09:04] Hinako**
What?
**[09:06] Sakiko**
You know... That thing...
**[09:08] Sakiko**
Right before summer break started...
**[09:11] Sakiko**
I said something awful to you, and...
**(Flashback) [09:14] Sakiko**
Guys will never like a stupid
beanpole like you!
**(Flashback) [09:18] Sakiko**
You're just gonna die like that!
**[09:26] Sakiko**
After that... I wanted to
apologize to you so badly, but...
**[09:33] Sakiko**
Once summer vacation was over...
Once I saw you at school...
**[09:37] Sakiko**
I was going to apologize...
**[09:39] Sakiko**
But you...
**[09:42] Hinako**
I died along with my
family in a car accident.
**[09:46] Hinako**
It was a tragic accident.
**[09:49] Sakiko**
I was jealous of you, Hina-chan.
**[09:53] Sakiko**
There were rumors saying that the boy
**[09:55] Sakiko**
I happened to like back
then had feelings for you.
**[09:58] Sakiko**
So I...
**[09:59] Hinako**
Maybe she didn't care so much.
**[10:02] Sakiko**
But I've wanted to apologize this whole time!
**[10:06] Sakiko**
I'm so sorry! I'm sure you'll be
beautiful when you grow up, Hina-chan!
**[10:12] Sakiko**
I really think that!
**[10:14] Sakiko**
So I...
**[10:16] Sakiko**
I wanted to say I'm sorry...
**[10:22] Hinako**
That's what's been bothering you?
**[10:25] Sakiko**
Yeah...
**[10:27] Sakiko**
*That's not Hinako-chan...*
**[10:30] Sakiko**
I know there's no point
in me telling you this...
**[10:35] Sakiko**
But I'm an awful person
who has no right to live,
**[10:39] Sakiko**
so... so I...
**[10:43] Sakiko**
I wanted Boogiepop to kill me!
**[10:48] Hinako**
Boogiepop...
**[10:49] Sakiko**
They were right here! I saw them!
**[10:52] Hinako**
Yes, I know.
**[10:55] Sakiko**
You do?
**[10:56] Hinako**
But I wonder if Boogiepop
will actually kill you.
**[11:01] Hinako**
Do you think they'll save
you from your suffering?
**[11:06] Sakiko**
Well... Will you kill me, then, Hina-chan?
**[11:12] Sakiko**
Hey, who are you?
**[11:16] Hinako**
You were suffering.
**[11:18] Hinako**
This whole time, you've been suffering
so much that you couldn't even realize it.
**[11:24] Hinako**
It's impossible to get rid of that pain now,
**[11:27] Hinako**
because it consumes your whole heart.
**[11:32] Hinako**
That's why you must take
**[11:34] Hinako**
the pain you want to erase from your heart,
**[11:39] Hinako**
and turn it into gold instead.
**[11:43] Sakiko**
Gold?
**[11:44] Hinako**
Yes.
**[11:46] Hinako**
All that glitters.
**[11:53] Ken**
*Back then,*
**[11:54] Ken**
* I was using a hacking tool I happened upon*
* to look into investment companies,*
**[12:00] Ken**
* to steal their client data and*
* sell it onto the black market.*
**[12:07] Ken**
Come on... Come on!
**[12:10] Ken**
Yes!
**[12:13] Ken**
Don't blame me. Blame the person who
made this incredibly convenient tool.
**[12:21] Ken**
* I always chose companies*
* that operated in a gray area,*
**[12:25] Ken**
*so it'd be hard to track me down...*
**[12:28] Ken**
*Or so I thought.*
**[12:30] Ken**
Wh-What the hell is this?!
**[12:32] Ken**
Shit!
***SIGN*** Device Not Ejected Properly Eject this device before disconnecting or turning it off.
**[12:40] Ken**
*I had a bad feeling about this.*
**[12:44] Ken**
*And sadly, I was right.*
**[12:53] Ken**
*Was that a trap?*
**[12:55] Cop**
Are you a high school student?
**[12:58] Ken**
Yes, I am.
**[13:00] Cop**
Do you have your student ID card?
**[13:02] Ken**
Uh, sure, I do... Is something wrong?
**[13:07] Cop**
Well, that's a great school.
***SIGN*** Identification Card
This card proves that this individual is a student at this school.

**[13:11] Cop**
Do you come around here often?
This isn't a route to this school.
**[13:15] Ken**
Well, I guess I come this way sometimes.
**[13:18] Ken**
Is there a problem?
**[13:20] Cop**
Could I take a look in your bag?
**[13:22] Ken**
Um... There's nothing
really important in there.
**[13:26] Cop**
I'd still prefer to make sure.
**[13:29] Ken**
I-I see...
**[13:31] Nagi**
Kentarou.
**[13:35] Nagi**
Did something happen?
**[13:38] Nagi**
I'm gonna go on ahead.
**[13:41] Cop**
Is that your girlfriend?
**[13:43] Ken**
Uh, yes... We were just meeting up.
**[13:46] Cop**
Well, there are some unsavory characters
around here, so don't wander around too much.
***SIGN*** Café Tristan
**[13:54] Ken**
Who the hell are you?
**[13:56] Nagi**
What's *my* deal? You're the
problem here, Habara Kentarou.
**[14:00] Ken**
How do you know about me?
**[14:02] Nagi**
You should give up on that business of yours.
**[14:05] Nagi**
You haven't run into too
many problems so far,
**[14:08] Nagi**
but things are about to change.
**[14:11] Nagi**
This world isn't as kind as you think.
**[14:16] Ken**
Don't tell me that warning was...
**[14:18] Nagi**
Well, thanks to you, I was able to crush
one investment scam group's network.
**[14:25] Ken**
Hey, what the hell do you mean by that?
**[14:28] Nagi**
Nothing, really.
**[14:29] Ken**
Are you the one who made that hacking tool?
**[14:33] Nagi**
Of course I'm not. I'm sure
someone like the NSA made it.
**[14:38] Ken**
Which means someone altered
it and spread it onto a site.
**[14:42] Nagi**
I never thought I'd meet anyone
who could actually use it, though.
**[14:48] Ken**
I see. So I've been dancing in the
palm of your hand this whole time.
**[14:53] Nagi**
I don't feel bad about it.
You did a half-assed job, anyway.
**[14:57] Ken**
No, that's not what I meant.
**[15:00] Ken**
Why didn't you just tell
me in the first place?
**[15:03] Ken**
If you'd just explained
everything to begin with,
**[15:06] Ken**
I would've been happy to help you out.
**[15:08] Ken**
Why didn't you just ask me?
**[15:11] Ken**
Well? Kirima Nagi-san from Shinyou Academy.
**[15:18] Nagi**
How do you know my name?
**[15:20] Ken**
Guess you're not too careful yourself.
**[15:22] Ken**
There's nothing weird about some
guys trying to find out more about
**[15:26] Ken**
someone as hot as you.
**[15:29] Ken**
* This was my memorable*
* first meeting with Nagi.*
**[15:35] Ken**
* And apparently, what's going on*
* right now is its continuation.*
**[15:40] Nagi**
So what you're saying is that
this is love at first sight?
**[15:45] Ken**
Pretty much... Though I never
would've been able to say that.
**[15:51] Nagi**
Why not?
**[15:53] Ken**
Huh? How the hell am I supposed to tell her?
**[15:55] Ken**
She's a superhero.
**[15:58] Ken**
She's got no time for someone like me.
**[16:00] Nagi**
Well, aren't you admirable.
**[16:03] Ken**
No matter how you look at
this, this is an illusion.
**[16:06] Ken**
I'm still inside the Moon Temple.
**[16:09] Nagi**
Oh? Is that what you think?
**[16:11] Ken**
I don't know how this trick works, but don't
think you can trap me in here forever.
**[16:17] Ken**
I'm gonna get the hell outta here for sure.
**[16:19] Nagi**
That's rather noble of you, Kentarou.
**[16:22] Ken**
Only because you're looking
at me with that face.
**[16:25] Ken**
Listen up, King of Distortion.
**[16:26] Ken**
Everything here is something
I've seen before.
**[16:30] Ken**
Which means this is my memory,
**[16:34] Ken**
and this is just going on in my head.
**[16:36] Ken**
It's basically a dream.
**[16:39] Nagi**
I see. Well done.
**[16:43] Nagi**
But haven't you ever considered
**[16:47] Nagi**
that this world we live in is a nightmare?
**[16:53] Nagi**
What's the easiest way to escape a nightmare?
**[16:58] Ken**
What does that mean?
**[17:00] Nagi**
It's extremely simple.
**[17:03] Nagi**
A trifle, really.
**[17:07] Ken**
Wh-What was that?!
**[17:09] Saotome**
I just told you, didn't I?
**[17:12] Saotome**
It's extremely simple.
**[17:15] Ken**
Who the hell are you?!
**[17:16] Saotome**
You sure I'm not part of your memory?
**[17:19] Ken**
I asked you who you are!
**[17:22] Saotome**
Saotome Masami. Just like you, I had
unrequited feelings for Kirima Nagi.
**[17:29] Saotome**
Now... Will you be able to
make it out of this nightmare?
**[17:35] Ken**
Damn it!
**[17:45] Ken**
Don't tell me...
**[18:01] Ken**
No way! This has to be a dream!
**[18:27] Ken**
Hey! What the hell are you doing there, kid?
**[18:30] Ken**
Let's get out of here!
**[18:31] Mako**
Who are you, mister?
**[18:33] Ken**
Don't call me that! I'm still in high school!
**[18:36] Ken**
Shit! Here it comes.
**[18:42] Mako**
Hey... Are you able to see Zooragi?
**[18:46] Ken**
Zooragi? Are you talking about that monster?
**[18:50] Mako**
Yeah.
**[18:52] Ken**
Hey, aren't you...
**(Flashback) [18:57] Mako**
My balloon!
**(Flashback) [18:59] Shizu**
That's what you get for not
holding it properly. Jeez.
**(Flashback) [19:04] Mako**
Man...
**[19:07] Ken**
I see. So that's what's going on here.
**[19:12] Mako**
What are you doing? Weren't
we getting out of here?
**[19:15] Ken**
Yeah, you're right.
**[19:19] Ken**
* This pretty much solidifies the fact that*
* this is all taking place in my memories.*
**[19:25] Ken**
* Apparently that Saotome guy*
* showed up just like this kid,*
**[19:29] Ken**
*because I must've seen them somewhere.*
**[19:31] Ken**
*In that case, to get out of here...*
**[19:34] Ken**
*To wake up from this nightmare...*
**[19:44] Mako**
Are we gonna be okay going back in there?
**[19:49] Ken**
Yeah, don't worry.
**[19:51] Ken**
Leave this to me.
**[19:54] Ken**
Hey.
**[19:55] Mako**
I'm... exhausted.
**[19:59] Ken**
All right... Fine.
**[20:01] Ken**
You wait here.
**[20:03] Ken**
Got it?
**[20:15] Ken**
Just as I thought.
**[20:17] Ken**
You dumbass! Hurry and wake the hell up!
**[20:26] Ken**
Hey, Shirou! Wake up!
**[20:35] Shirou**
Habara-san... What was I...
**[20:38] Ken**
It's not just you. Everyone here's
in the same boat, including me.
**[20:42] Shirou**
Th-This is... What in the world is going on?
**[20:58] Ken**
I'm not really sure myself,
**[21:00] Ken**
but apparently everyone fell asleep
at some point, and they're dreaming.
**[21:04] Shirou**
Dreaming?
**[21:05] Ken**
You had one too, right?
**[21:09] Shirou**
Come to think of it...
**[21:12] Shirou**
I was meeting with her...
**[21:14] Ken**
Did this girl happen to call
herself the King of Distortion?
**[21:19] Shirou**
Yes, she did.
**[21:21] Ken**
I knew it.
**[21:23] Shirou**
You met them, too?
**[21:25] Ken**
Yup.
**[21:26] Ken**
That bastard... What's he trying to do?
**[21:31] Shirou**
Habara-san, do you have any idea
who the King of Distortion is?
**[21:36] Ken**
Who the hell else could it be?
**[21:39] Ken**
It's the one who built this
damn thing to begin with.
**[21:42] Shirou**
Teratsuki Kyouichirou?
**[21:44] Ken**
