SIGN    Boogiepop and Others
SIGN    Dengeki Bunko
[01:39] Kei
    Wh-What is this?
[01:42] Kei
    What's going on?
[01:43] Boogiepop
    I do not know.
[01:45] Kei
    But you reappeared because you sensed
    another threat to this world, right?
[01:49] Boogiepop
    Yes, that is correct, but I don't
    know exactly what this threat is.
[01:56] Boogiepop
    I appear automatically, after all.
[01:59] Kei
    Even in this situation?
[02:02] Kei
    Just find this King of Distortion
    and take him out already!
[02:06] Boogiepop
    If it were actually that simple,
    I wouldn't need to appear.
[02:11] Boogiepop
    Besides, I'm not entirely
    sure if he's my enemy yet.
[02:16] Kei
    What's that mean?
[02:17] Boogiepop
    It seems the being that calls
    itself the King of Distortion
[02:21] Boogiepop
    is trying to draw some kind
    of reaction out of people.
[02:26] Boogiepop
    What I mean is, that
    alone isn't destructive.
[02:31] Boogiepop
    It's not like last time.
[02:33] Kei
    Last time? You mean with Manticore?
[02:37] Boogiepop
    It appears the real threat
    hasn't appeared yet this time.
[02:51] Boogiepop
    Hunger affects your nerves.
[02:54] Boogiepop
    You should eat something.
[02:56] Kei
    Could this be...
[03:01] Boogiepop
    Yes, I believe Miyashita Touka made it
    to eat it together with Takeda Keiji.
[03:08] Kei
    I-I don't want this!
[03:11] Boogiepop
    It's still food, regardless.
[03:13] Kei
    I feel bad for Miyashita-san, though.
[03:16] Boogiepop
    It's fine. I'm sure she'll deal with it.
[03:20] Kei
    Really?
(Flashback) [03:23] Suema
    Split personalities?
(Flashback) [03:25] Kei
    Yeah... Like someone's
    personality suddenly changing.
(Flashback) [03:30] Suema
    Niitoki-san, first off, most cases of
    dissociative identity disorder are fake.
(Flashback) [03:38] Kei
    Huh?
(Flashback) [03:38] Suema
    They're just acting. At least,
    I think most of them are, anyway.
(Flashback) [03:43] Kei
    But... Th-There are all kinds of cases...
(Flashback) [03:48] Suema
    Yes, there are, but there's no way to
    prove that they're completely true.
(Flashback) [03:53] Suema
    Dissociative identity disorder
    is nothing more than a theory.
(Flashback) [03:59] Suema
    Niitoki-san, even you have some
    kind of secret, don't you?
(Flashback) [04:03] Suema
    And when you're trying to hide it,
    aren't you just acting?
(Flashback) [04:06] Suema
    You probably seem rather different
    from yourself at times, too.
(Flashback) [04:11] Suema
    But if someone said that was
    actually another identity,
(Flashback) [04:14] Suema
    isn't that a bit too much?
(Flashback) [04:16] Kei
    W-Well, yeah...
(Flashback) [04:19] Suema
    The human heart has many more sides
    than people are willing to admit.
(Flashback) [04:25] Kei
    B-But isn't it possible that someone
    might not even realize
(Flashback) [04:28] Kei
    that they have another identity?
(Flashback) [04:31] Suema
    True, but...
(Flashback) [04:33] Suema
    How are you supposed to prove that?
(Flashback) [04:37] Kei
    Huh? Um...
(Flashback) [04:39] Suema
    There's a part of dissociative identity
    disorder that's probatio diabolica.
(Flashback) [04:44] Suema
    They might be lying, but to prove that...
(Flashback) [04:49] Kei
    It might be difficult?
(Flashback) [04:51] Suema
    I believe that multiple personalities
    come from someone's desires.
(Flashback) [04:56] Suema
    At times, it's a way for someone
    to deny that they've done something
(Flashback) [05:00] Suema
    and blame someone else who's
    supposedly inside of them.
(Flashback) [05:04] Kei
    I see...
(Flashback) [05:06] Suema
    Those feelings, which everyone
    has, are what affirm
(Flashback) [05:11] Suema
    the existence of dissociative
    identity disorder.
(Flashback) [05:13] Suema
    That's what I believe.
[05:17] Kei
    Feelings that everyone has, huh?
[05:24] Kei
    This is good.
[05:32] Kei
    You're good at that.
[05:35] Boogiepop
    You're the second person to tell me that.
[05:38] Kei
    Who was the first?
[05:40] Boogiepop
    Takeda-kun.
[05:42] Kei
    Senpai knows about you, too?
[05:45] Boogiepop
    Yes.
[05:46] Kei
    I wonder what he thinks about all this...
[05:48] Kei
    Your existence is quite a burden, you know?
[05:51] Boogiepop
    Well, he's a good person.
[05:55] Kei
    Why does Miyashita-san like Senpai?
[05:59] Boogiepop
    Who knows? I'm not certain myself, but
    I'd suspect it's for the same reason you do.
[06:07] Boogiepop
    Why did you end up liking Takeda-kun?
[06:14] Kei
    Probably because he's nice.
[06:17] Kei
    I wonder if it's the same for Miyashita-san.
[06:20] Boogiepop
    Again, I'm not sure.
[06:23] Kei
    What about you, then? What do
    you think about Takeda-senpai?
[06:28] Boogiepop
    I don't have my own sense of self.
    What I'm thinking matters to no one.
[06:37] Kei
    That's not fair.
[06:40] Boogiepop
    I'm grateful for Takeda-kun.
[06:43] Boogiepop
    He's the only one who ever
    called me their friend.
[06:48] Boogiepop
    Yes...
[06:50] Boogiepop
    In that sense, you could even
    say that I'm a bit jealous.
[06:56] Kei
    Jealous?
[06:58] Boogiepop
    Jealous of Miyashita Touka, just like you.
[07:04] Kei
    Wh-What? What's going on?
[07:08] Kei
    Hey, wait!
[07:29] Kei
    Wh—
[07:30] Kei
    Why are you here again?
[07:32] Saotome
    Looks like they're gone.
[07:35] Saotome
    Now, let's continue our conversation.
[07:42] Guy
    What do you mean, there's no
    blueprint data remaining?
[07:45] Guy B
    What can we do? The president deleted them.
[07:49] Keiji
    Is Miyashita in there?
[07:52] Guy
    Could this be a time-delayed device?
[07:55] Guy B
    A time-delayed device?
    What are you talking about?
[07:58] Guy
    Like, maybe the president planned
    for this to happen before he died.
[08:02] Keiji
    If she is in there, could
    it actually be Boogiepop?
[08:12] Sakiko
    Say, Hinako...
[08:15] Sakiko
    Will you forgive me?
[08:17] Hinako
    I'm not the one who decides that.
[08:20] Sakiko
    Yeah... This is an illusion, after all.
[08:23] Sakiko
    The truth is that you're already dead,
    and you probably hate me, but...
[08:28] King
    But what?
[08:30] Sakiko
    You're the guy from earlier...
[08:33] King
    I appeared this way because
    he was in your memories.
[08:36] King
    That's probably what he'd say, anyway.
[08:39] Sakiko
    Then are you the King of Distortion?
[08:41] King
    Who knows? That doesn't really matter.
[08:44] King
    What matters is, even if you ask
    Hinako-kun for forgiveness,
[08:48] King
    you'll never get an answer.
[08:52] Hinako
    Hey, did you ever think about me
     from time to time before this?
[08:58] Sakiko
    Huh?
[08:59] Hinako
    You probably completely
    forgot about me until today.
[09:03] Sakiko
    I'm sorry.
[09:05] Hinako
    No... The fact that you had forgotten
    shows how great your guilt was.
[09:10] Hinako
    It was what was tying you down.
[09:13] Hinako
    But at this rate, Hinako's existence
    will only continue to harm you.
[09:19] Hinako
    Even though it should be fun,
    just like we're having now.
[09:27] Sakiko
    Is that what you mean by gold?
[09:29] Hinako
    No... It's everything that you think glitters.
[09:37] Sakiko
    What's that noise?
[09:38] Hinako
    You don't need to worry about Zooragi.
[09:42] Sakiko
    Zooragi?
[09:43] Hinako
    Yes.
[09:45] Sakiko
    You don't need to worry about it.
[09:48] Shirou
    An illusion?
[09:50] Habara
    Yeah. They probably filled
     the place with psychotropic gas.
[09:57] Habara
    I mean, the guy made a completely
    closed-off building.
[10:01] Habara
    There's a good chance that Teratsuki
     Kyouichirou is behind all of this.
[10:05] Shirou
    But even if that's true,
    what was he trying to do?
[10:09] Habara
    Right. Also, why did he make this
    place like one giant staircase?
[10:13] Habara
    There are tons of questions.
[10:17] Habara
    I can't get through...
[10:19] Shirou
    This does seem like some demon
    lord's tower from a video game.
[10:23] Habara
    That's not even funny...
[10:25] Shirou
    Oh, Habara-san! There's a hatch over here.
[10:32] Habara
    Looks like someone went through before us.
[10:35] Habara
    It might lead to the control room.
[10:37] Habara
    Let's go.
[10:41] Shirou
    What is this? Talk about horrible taste...
[10:48] Habara
    There's nothing here. Looks like
    it's just some storage space.
[10:51] Habara
    I guess that means the control
    room might be on the top floor.
[10:54] Habara
    This fells more and more
    like a game, huh, Shirou?
[10:58] Habara
    What are you looking for?
    Think we can get outside?
[11:01] Shirou
    No...
[11:02] Shirou
    I just thought there might be
    signs that they might be here.
[11:06] Habara
    They?
[11:08] Shirou
    It's nothing.
[11:11] Shirou
    I guess we're out of options. We'll just
    have to go back the way we came
[11:14] Shirou
    and try to find another exit.
[11:24] Shirou
    Huh?
[11:25] Habara
    Hey, what's wrong?
[11:28] Shirou
    There's no one... here.
[11:36] Habara
    What the hell's going on?
[11:42] Habara
    That roar... I'm pretty sure
    I've heard it somewhere before...
[11:44] Guy
    H-Help me...
[11:50] Habara
    Wh-What the hell is all this?!
[11:53] Habara
    What are these things?
[11:55] Habara
    Hey, Shirou!
SIGN    Kirima Nagi
[12:03] Habara
    Is that you, Nagi?
[12:05] Masaki
    As I figured, you tried
    asking my sister for help.
[12:10] Habara
    Masaki?
[12:12] Habara
    Where's Nagi? Is Nagi there?
[12:16] Masaki
    You're acting pretty lame, Kentarou-san.
[12:20] Habara
    Who the hell are you?
[12:22] Masaki
    I'm sure you already know the answer.
[12:25] Masaki
    I can't have you asking for help right now.
[12:30] Masaki
    My experiment isn't over yet.
[12:37] Mob
    There's an earthquake happening
    just around the Moon Temple!
[12:38] Mob
    Hello? Hello?!
[12:40] Mob
    I can't get a signal!
[12:40] Keiji
    An earthquake? But that means it's really...
[12:42] Mob
    Maybe there's some interference...
[12:52] Mob
    We're sinking!
[12:53] Mob
    The ground below us is caving in!
[12:56] Mob
    Over here, too!
[12:59] Keiji
    Is this the trap that Teratsuki
    Kyouichirou left behind?
[13:04] Keiji
    Or... could it be...
[13:08] Mob
    Hey, don't tell me...
[13:09] Mob
    Is the building actually going to collapse?!
[13:12] Keiji
    Is this it?
[13:13] Keiji
    Is this the threat to the world, Boogiepop?
[13:17] Keiji
    Miyashita!
(Flashback) [13:25] Teacher
    What's that, Makoto-kun?
(Flashback) [13:28] Makoto
    My dad.
(Flashback) [13:29] Teacher
    Your dad? But that's...
(Flashback) [13:32] Makoto
    This is the dad that appears in my dreams.
(Flashback) [13:37] Teacher
    I-I see... Does he have a name?
(Flashback) [13:41] Makoto
    Zooragi.
(Flashback) [13:41] Teacher
    Zo...
(Flashback) [13:44] Teacher
    Wh-What an interesting name!
SIGN    Our Dads
SIGN    Hashizaka Makoto
[13:53] Makoto
    Hey, is this gonna
    take much longer, mister?!
[13:56] Makoto
    Where'd you go?!
[14:15] Makoto
    H-Help me... Someone help me!
[14:19] Boogiepop
    Hey, there. Is something the matter?
[14:23] Makoto
    Z-Zooragi is...
[14:25] Boogiepop
    Zooragi? What's that?
[14:28] Makoto
    It's a monster! It's right in front of us!
[14:32] Boogiepop
    I'm afraid I can't see it, sadly.
[14:35] Makoto
    Wh-What are you talking about?! It's gonna
     eat us if we don't get out of here!
[14:42] Boogiepop
    A monster, eh?
[14:44] Boogiepop
    So that must be your King of Distortion.
[14:47] Boogiepop
    And it's quite destructive at that.
[14:52] Boogiepop
    Looks like I'll have my hands full again.
[14:57] Makoto
    Huh?
[14:58] Boogiepop
    Can I ask you something?
[15:00] Boogiepop
    Could it be that this monster was
    the one who squished everyone here?
[15:07] Makoto
    Y-Yeah...
[15:10] Boogiepop
    I see. So that's why everyone
    just keeps asking for help.
[15:16] Boogiepop
    Good grief. This is going
    to be a huge ordeal.
[15:20] Boogiepop
    I can safely say that even I've never
    fought a monster before.
[15:27] Kei
    I'm finally starting to understand.
[15:29] Saotome
    Understand what, Niitoki-san?
[15:32] Kei
    Who you really are, King of Distortion.
[15:35] Saotome
    Oh? And what's that supposed to mean?
[15:38] Kei
    At first, I thought I was dragged
    into this illusion that you created.
[15:43] Kei
    But if that were the case, it'd be
    impossible for Boogiepop to come save me.
[15:49] Kei
    Which means this isn't some kind of
    illusion you created, but it's within me.
[15:54] Saotome
    Within you, eh?
[15:56] Kei
    To be more specific, you're
     my alternate personality.
[16:01] Saotome
    Oh?
[16:02] Kei
    Suema-san told me that humans have
    more sides to them than they know.
[16:09] Kei
    And that's what you are.
[16:11] Kei
    You're usually within me.
    Someone trapped within a box.
[16:16] Kei
    And you're an invader that's
    borrowed their form.
[16:19] Kei
    That's the true identity
    of the King of Distortion.
[16:23] Kei
    The continuous shaking
    that's been going on...
[16:26] Kei
    That's been going on since
    before I returned here.
[16:30] Kei
    Which means you're not creating it.
[16:33] Kei
    It's being created by someone
    else who's been possessed.
[16:36] Kei
    It's the result of their
    latent powers going berserk.
[16:43] Kei
    And now, that's also scaring you.
[16:47] Kei
    Am I wrong?
[16:50] Saotome
    Apparently, that thing's called Zooragi.
[16:53] Saotome
    It's gotten too big and is almost
    completely independent from its creator.
[16:58] Kei
    Zooragi...
[16:59] Saotome
    It's not attacking anything
    really intentionally...
[17:03] Saotome
    But if it got serious, it could
    flatten this building in an instant.
[17:08] Kei
    Then hurry up and stop all of this!
[17:10] Kei
    If you stop, all of this will disappear!
[17:14] Saotome
    But will that make the Saotome Masami-kun
    that's in your heart disappear, President?
[17:21] Kei
    Th-That doesn't matter!
[17:23] Saotome
    It's true I'm within you.
[17:26] Saotome
    That's why I know everything you know.
[17:30] Saotome
    Didn't Suema Kazuko say this, as well?
[17:33] Saotome
    Split personalities are
    a product of one's desires.
[17:37] Saotome
    If I am truly a split personality, then
    you have to find what desire created me.
[17:44] Saotome
    No matter how bitter that may be,
[17:47] Saotome
    and how much you'd like to avoid it.
[17:50] Saotome
    Until that pain turns into your gold.
[18:05] Boogiepop
    I see. It looks like our wavelengths
     are finally matching.
[18:10] Boogiepop
    I'm almost able to see it now.
[18:13] Makoto
    What are you going to do?
[18:14] Boogiepop
    Well, it definitely looks like it wants to play,
[18:17] Boogiepop
    so I'm just going to have to accept.
[18:20] Makoto
    Y-You're going to fight that thing?!
[18:22] Boogiepop
    Well, there isn't any other way.
[18:31] Boogiepop
    Looks like I missed.
    It's much faster than I expected.
[18:35] Makoto
    What did you do?
[18:36] Boogiepop
    I messed up.
[18:47] Boogiepop
    Perhaps I shouldn't have wounded it.
[18:51] Boogiepop
    Then again, it's not like I can
    cut through its giant body.
[18:55] Makoto
    Where are we going, mister?
[18:57] Boogiepop
    The name's Boogiepop.
[18:59] Makoto
    Boogiepop?
[19:02] Boogiepop
    We're going up. There really
    isn't any other way we can go.
[19:06] Makoto
    Up?! But then—
[19:08] Boogiepop
    It might just corner us.
[19:32] Makoto
    Wh-What's that?!
[19:34] Boogiepop
    I think it's finished with
     being troublesome,
[19:36] Boogiepop
    and is now just trying to
    destroy the whole building.
[19:39] Boogiepop
    It's rather intelligent.
[19:41] Makoto
    R-Really?!
[19:57] Boogiepop
    Do you have any experience?
[19:59] Makoto
    Huh?
[20:00] Boogiepop
    Do you have any experience?
[20:02] Makoto
    I-In what?
[20:05] Boogiepop
    Bungee jumping!
[20:32] Makoto
    Y-You actually won...
[20:36] Boogiepop
    There's nothing you can't do in this world
[20:38] Boogiepop
    when you have a bit of
    intelligence and courage.
[20:48] Boogiepop
    You finally believed in me.
[20:50] Boogiepop
    For a moment, I didn't know what I'd do.
[20:54] Boogiepop
    There you have it, Zooragi-kun.
[20:57] Boogiepop
    Looks like your exit has
    been blocked this time.
[21:02] Boogiepop
    Even if you were to crush this thing,
    you wouldn't be able to leave.
[21:19] Boogiepop
    Someday, there'll be someone else
    to acknowledge your existence.
[21:25] Boogiepop
    Until then...
[21:34] Boogiepop
    Good grief.
[21:37] Makoto
    You're so awesome, Boogiepop...
[21:40] Boogiepop
    Why, thank you.
[21:46] Boogiepop
    Is this from when we jumped off?
[21:48] Boogiepop
    I wonder if Takeda-kun will be angry that
    I accidentally wounded this body.
[21:59] Boogiepop
    Apparently a small portion of Zooragi's
    power crossed the boundary.
[22:06] Boogiepop
    This building's not going
    to last much longer.
