**[01:32] Aya**
Hey.
**[01:33] Aya**
Why are you so concerned about me, Masaki?
**[01:36] Masaki**
I'm just trying to get closer to you.
**[01:42] Aya**
Do you want to do it?
**[01:43] Masaki**
I'm sorry, what?
**[01:44] Aya**
Do you want to do me?
**[01:47] Aya**
Like, have sex.
**[01:48] Masaki**
Wh-What the heck, Orihata?!
**[01:51] Aya**
It's fine. If you want to, just say so.
**[01:56] Masaki**
*Her name is Orihata Aya.*
**[01:59] Masaki**
*She's fifteen, just like me.*
**[02:01] Masaki**
*Apparently, we're boyfriend and girlfriend.*
**[02:06] Masaki**
* I say "apparently" because the way*
* we met is pretty complicated,*
**[02:11] Masaki**
* and there are a lot of*
* mysterious things about her.*
**(Flashback) [02:15] Aya**
That's a rather dumb thing to do.
**[02:20] Masaki**
* In the winter of my third year of middle school,*
* I returned to Japan from Phnom Penh,*
**[02:24] Masaki**
* where I was living with my parents,*
* in order to attend a Japanese high school.*
**(Flashback) [02:28] Teacher**
This is Taniguchi Masaki-kun.
**[02:31] Masaki**
* I just went to this middle school so*
* that I could officially graduate...*
**[02:36] Masaki**
*But likely because of that attitude,*
**[02:38] Masaki**
* I had a hard time fitting*
* in with everyone in class.*
***SIGN*** Exercises
**[02:43] Masaki**
*According to my big sister, Nagi...*
**(Flashback) [02:45] Nagi**
Sadly, that's how it is.
**(Flashback) [02:47] Nagi**
They're just a bunch of losers who are
afraid of people who do things differently.
**[02:52] Masaki**
* That's why I tried to play the good guy and*
* tried to avoid bringing attention to myself.*
**(Flashback) [02:58] Girl A**
Wow, it's so easy to understand now!
**(Flashback) [03:00] Girl B**
You're so smart! Guess I should
expect that from Mr. Study Abroad.
**[03:03] Masaki**
* But apparently, that didn't*
* sit well with some people.*
**(Flashback) [03:09] Boy A**
Hey, Mr. Study Abroad.
**(Flashback) [03:12] Boy B**
Don't you think you stand out too much?
**(Flashback) [03:14] Masaki**
You think so? I'll be more careful, then.
**(Flashback) [03:16] Boy C**
Be more careful?
**(Flashback) [03:18] Masaki**
Yeah. I'll try not to stand out as much.
**(Flashback) [03:21] Boy A**
Who the hell do you think you are?
Come with us for a sec.
**[03:28] Masaki**
* I'd been learning karate for self-defense,*
* so I knew how to fight,*
**[03:33] Masaki**
* but getting into trouble could affect*
* my odds of getting into high school.*
**[03:38] Masaki**
* Guess I'll let 'em hit me four or*
* five more times and it'll be over.*
**[03:41] Masaki**
*And then, right when I thought that...*
**(Flashback) [03:44] Aya**
That's a rather dumb thing to do.
**(Flashback) [03:47] Aya**
What's the point of this?
**(Flashback) [03:50] Aya**
What sort of failures does he display
that you'd do that to him?
**(Flashback) [03:56] Boy A**
Huh? Who the hell are you, a friend of his?
**(Flashback) [03:59] Aya**
I'm asking you why.
**(Flashback) [04:02] Boy A**
Because he's a womanizer.
**(Flashback) [04:07] Aya**
I see.
**(Flashback) [04:12] Aya**
So in other words,
**(Flashback) [04:13] Aya**
the reason behind your rage is your
own pent-up sexual frustrations.
**(Flashback) [04:18] Masaki**
Huh?!
**(Flashback) [04:20] Boy A**
What? What did you just say?
**(Flashback) [04:22] Aya**
In that case, take your
frustrations out on me.
**(Flashback) [04:28] Boy A**
Bring it on! I definitely won't say no to that.
**(Flashback) [04:33] Masaki**
H-Hey, wait!
**(Flashback) [04:35] Masaki**
Stop! She's got nothing to do with this!
**(Flashback) [04:37] Boy B**
Who the hell do you think you are?
**(Flashback) [04:40] Boy C**
Get the hell outta here!
**(Flashback) [04:42] Boy A**
We're here to have some fun with her.
**(Flashback) [04:44] Masaki**
S-Stop!
**(Flashback) [04:47] Jin**
Hey, you there.
**(Flashback) [04:50] Jin**
Just to make sure I have the right idea...
**(Flashback) [04:53] Boy A**
Wh-Who the hell are you?
**(Flashback) [04:56] Jin**
Do you want to save that girl?
**(Flashback) [04:59] Masaki**
Y-Yes.
**(Flashback) [05:00] Jin**
I see. In that case, leave
this to me, and run.
**(Flashback) [05:05] Masaki**
Yes, sir. Thank you very much!
**(Flashback) [05:08] Boy A**
H-Hey, wait!
**(Flashback) [05:10] Jin**
You're the ones who're going to wait.
**(Flashback) [05:16] Masaki**
Sit here and wait for a bit. Okay?
**(Flashback) [05:19] Aya**
Okay.
**(Flashback) [05:20] Masaki**
I promise I'll be right back!
**(Flashback) [05:29] Jin**
Ah, it's you.
**(Flashback) [05:30] Masaki**
D-Did everything go okay?
**(Flashback) [05:33] Jin**
Yeah. More importantly, how's the girl?
**(Flashback) [05:35] Masaki**
Oh, I had her wait by the station...
**(Flashback) [05:37] Jin**
You should hurry back to her.
**(Flashback) [05:39] Masaki**
R-Right...
**(Flashback) [05:42] Jin**
Contrary to her demeanor, I'm pretty
sure she's not as calm as she seems.
**(Flashback) [05:46] Masaki**
Huh?
**(Flashback) [05:48] Masaki**
Um... Thank you again!
**(Flashback) [05:53] Masaki**
You really surprised me earlier.
I need to thank you, though.
**(Flashback) [05:58] Aya**
Why?
**(Flashback) [05:59] Masaki**
Well, you saved me, didn't you?
**(Flashback) [06:03] Aya**
I thought you hated me, so...
**(Flashback) [06:06] Masaki**
Huh? Why would I hate you?
**(Flashback) [06:10] Aya**
I can't let other people hate me...
**(Flashback) [06:15] Masaki**
I don't hate you, though.
**(Flashback) [06:19] Aya**
But... you glared at me.
**(Flashback) [06:21] Masaki**
Huh?
**(Flashback) [06:22] Aya**
I thought you might be mad.
**(Flashback) [06:24] Masaki**
Er... No, that was just...
**(Flashback) [06:28] Masaki**
A-Anyway, I'll pay for your clothes.
**(Flashback) [06:31] Aya**
It's fine.
**(Flashback) [06:33] Masaki**
But...
**(Flashback) [06:34] Aya**
Really, it's okay. Thanks.
**(Flashback) [06:38] Aya**
I'm Orihata Aya.
**(Flashback) [06:40] Masaki**
Huh?
**(Flashback) [06:41] Aya**
What's your name?
**(Flashback) [06:43] Masaki**
I'm Taniguchi Masaki.
**(Flashback) [06:46] Aya**
Masaki...
**(Flashback) [06:48] Aya**
What a lovely name.
**[06:53] Masaki**
* Looking back on that now,*
* it might've been love at first sight.*

**[07:00] Aya**
*Are you sure you want to go with me?*
**(Flashback) [07:01] Masaki**
Well, I want to thank you for the other day.
**(Flashback) [07:04] Masaki**
I mean, if you're busy, it's fine...
**[07:09] Aya**
*Thank you. I'll go.*
**(Flashback) [07:15] Masaki**
What should we do? Do you
want to try another day?
**(Flashback) [07:18] Aya**
Why?
**(Flashback) [07:19] Masaki**
Because it looks like
we'll be waiting a while.
**(Flashback) [07:22] Aya**
You don't want to wait?
**(Flashback) [07:24] Masaki**
Well, won't we get tired?
**(Flashback) [07:26] Aya**
Then I'll wait here.
You can go rest somewhere.
**(Flashback) [07:31] Masaki**
No, no. I'll line up for you, then.
**(Flashback) [07:34] Aya**
It's fine. I'm used to doing nothing.
**(Flashback) [07:37] Masaki**
But, I mean... I wanted to
do this to thank you...
**(Flashback) [07:41] Masaki**
I know! Wait here for a sec.
**(Flashback) [07:45] Lady**
Here's your cheeseburger and
hot dog. Thank you very much.
**(Flashback) [07:49] Masaki**
Thanks!
**(Flashback) [07:50] Anou**
Well, if it isn't the transfer student.
**(Flashback) [07:52] Anou**
What are you doing here?
**(Flashback) [07:54] Masaki**
Uh... You know.
**(Flashback) [07:57] Anou**
Probably making some girl
wait for you, huh?
**(Flashback) [08:00] Masaki**
Sorry, I'm in a hurry. Bye.
**(Flashback) [08:06] Masaki**
Are you sure this is okay?
**(Flashback) [08:08] Aya**
Yeah. I don't dislike any food.
**(Flashback) [08:10] Aya**
Because I don't have the
right to hate anything.
**(Flashback) [08:13] Masaki**
Huh?
**(Flashback) [08:14] Aya**
More importantly, I thought
you weren't going to come back.
**(Flashback) [08:17] Masaki**
Of course I was going to come back!
**(Flashback) [08:19] Masaki**
At this point, I'm in for the long haul!
**(Flashback) [08:27] Aya**
There, all clean.
**(Flashback) [08:33] Aya**
Are you having fun?
**(Flashback) [08:34] Masaki**
Huh?
**(Flashback) [08:36] Aya**
Are you sure you're not bored...
being with someone like me?
**(Flashback) [08:42] Masaki**
Of course not!
**(Flashback) [08:44] Aya**
Thank goodness. I was worried about that.
**(Flashback) [08:48] Masaki**
I could ask you the same thing.
Are you sure you're not—
**(Flashback) [08:53] Aya**
You feel so warm, Masaki.
**[08:57] Masaki**
*And so, I started going out with Orihata.*
**[09:03] Masaki**
*But are we actually going out?*
***SIGN*** You okay?
***SIGN*** Yes.
***SIGN*** What are you up to?
**[09:07] Masaki**
* She was shrouded in so much*
* mystery, it made me wonder.*
***SIGN*** What are you up to?
***SIGN*** Nothing. Did you need something?
**[09:10] Masaki**
*I was always the one to contact her.*
***SIGN*** Nothing. Did you need something?
***SIGN*** Just wondering if you were free this Saturday.
**[09:13] Masaki**
*It was always like this.*
***SIGN*** Just wondering if you were free this Saturday.
***SIGN*** I am. Where should we meet?
**[09:16] Masaki**
*I'd be restless, and she'd be perfectly calm.*
**[09:20] Masaki**
*That's why I'd invite her out even more.*
**(Flashback) [09:27] Aya**
Actually, I'm not sure.
**(Flashback) [09:30] Masaki**
You're not sure? You haven't decided
where you're going to school?
**(Flashback) [09:33] Aya**
I think I'm going to at least
take entrance exams,
**(Flashback) [09:35] Aya**
but I'm still not sure where to.
**(Flashback) [09:38] Masaki**
Are your parents strict, or what?
**(Flashback) [09:40] Aya**
I don't have any.
**(Flashback) [09:42] Masaki**
Huh? What do you mean?
**(Flashback) [09:44] Aya**
I don't have anything like that.
**(Flashback) [09:47] Masaki**
Then what about relatives?
**(Flashback) [09:50] Masaki**
Should I not have asked that?
**(Flashback) [09:53] Aya**
I'm sorry, Masaki.
**(Flashback) [09:56] Masaki**
Huh? For what?
**(Flashback) [09:57] Aya**
I'm sorry.
**(Flashback) [10:00] Aya**
I can't tell you.
**(Flashback) [10:02] Masaki**
Nah... It's fine.
**[10:05] Masaki**
* Even so, she would always*
* ask me in the end...*
**(Flashback) [10:10] Aya**
Can we see each other again?
**(Flashback) [10:11] Masaki**
Of course!

*It made me really happy.*
**(Flashback) [10:25] Masaki**
What's up?
**(Flashback) [10:26] Masaki**
Huh? You got into Shinyou Academy?!
**[10:29] Aya**
*Yeah. You were worried about that, so...*
**(Flashback) [10:32] Masaki**
I see. Congratulations!
**[10:34] Aya**
*I'm glad you're happy, Masaki.*
**(Flashback) [10:37] Masaki**
Hey, let's celebrate. Can you meet
me at the usual park in a bit?
**[10:42] Aya**
*Yeah, sure.*
**(Flashback) [10:43] Masaki**
See you soon!
**[10:45] Masaki**
*As I thought, this was love at first sight!*
**[10:51] Anou**
*It was love at first sight.*
**(Flashback) [10:58] Girl A**
Hey, isn't he hot?
**(Flashback) [11:00] Boy D**
Man, he seems annoying.
**(Flashback) [11:02] Anou**
Huh? Yeah, he does.
**[11:06] Anou**
* It was the first time*
* I'd ever felt like that,*
**[11:09] Anou**
*so I wasn't really sure what I was feeling.*
**(Flashback) [11:12] Boy A**
Man, doesn't he just piss you off?
**(Flashback) [11:15] Anou**
Huh?
**(Flashback) [11:15] Boy A**
I totally get it. You're always
glaring at him hardcore.
**(Flashback) [11:19] Anou**
R-Right. Yeah...
**(Flashback) [11:22] Girl A**
Could you teach me English sometime?
**(Flashback) [11:24] Girl B**
Me, too!
**(Flashback) [11:25] Masaki**
Oh, sorry!
**(Flashback) [11:27] Girl A**
Was that on purpose?
**(Flashback) [11:29] Girl B**
Anou's attitude really sucks.
**(Flashback) [11:31] Girl A**
Yeah, he's just jealous.
**(Flashback) [11:36] Boy A**
Sounds good. Let's do this.
**(Flashback) [11:38] Boy B**
Yeah, I really hate that guy.
**[11:41] Anou**
*I just wanted to be his friend.*
**[11:44] Anou**
* I just wanted to lessen*
* the distance between us.*
**(Flashback) [11:46] Masaki**
Stop! She's got nothing to do with this!
**(Flashback) [11:49] Boy B**
Who the hell do you think you are?
**(Flashback) [11:52] Jin**
You know...
**(Flashback) [11:54] Jin**
I don't really like how
you're going about this.
***SIGN*** Cold
**[12:18] Anou**
*I don't care if people don't like my methods.*
**[12:21] Anou**
* I don't have time to be picky*
* about how I do this.*
**(Flashback) [12:25] Masaki**
I know! Wait here for a sec.
**(Flashback) [12:31] Anou**
Well, if it isn't the transfer student.
**(Flashback) [12:34] Masaki**
Sorry, I'm in a hurry. Bye.
***SIGN*** Oh, that's probably Orihata.
She goes to our school.
***SIGN*** Really?
***SIGN*** Really?
***SIGN*** Yeah, I mean, everyone knows about her.
***SIGN*** Really?
***SIGN*** Yeah, I mean, everyone knows about her.
***SIGN*** What do you mean by that?
***SIGN*** What do you mean by that?
***SIGN*** She seems like a good girl, but apparently, she'll let anyone do her if they ask.
**[13:05] Anou**
*Why...*
**[13:08] Anou**
*Why does he like a girl like her?*
**[13:27] Anou**
What? That girl...
**[13:30] Anou**
She's saying something...
**[13:34] Anou**
Is she talking to someone?
**[13:36] Spooky E**
So it's you?
**[13:42] Spooky E**
The one who's been stalking her.
**[13:46] Aya**
I have no right to fall in love.
I have no right to fall in love.
**[13:52] Aya**
I have... no right to fall in love with him.
**[13:58] Spooky E**
You're going to forget
all unnecessary things.
**[14:12] Spooky E**
Anou Shinjirou,
**[14:14] Spooky E**
from now on, you'll no longer care about
everything you were obsessing over.
**[14:19] Anou**
I will not care.
**[14:20] Spooky E**
You will also no longer
have personal desires.
**[14:25] Anou**
I will not have them.
**[14:26] Spooky E**
You are now a terminal.
**[14:29] Anou**
I am... a terminal.
**[14:33] Spooky E**
You will enter Shinyou Academy
and await instructions.
**[14:39] Anou**
I will await instructions.
**[14:41] Spooky E**
Good. You're now a servant
of the Towa Organization.
**[14:46] Mom**
You're changing cram schools?
**[14:48] Anou**
Yeah.
**[14:51] Anou**
My grades are falling...
**[14:54] Anou**
And I can't get into the school
I want with that cram school.
**[14:57] Mom**
The school you want to
get into? Where's that?
**[15:01] Anou**
Shinyou Academy.
**[15:04] Anou**
* I will enter Shinyou Academy*
* and await instructions.*
**[15:09] Girl B**
Anou-kun seems like a
completely different person.
**[15:11] Girl A**
I know, right? He might
not be so bad after all.
**[15:14] Anou**
* I will enter Shinyou Academy*
* and await instructions.*
**[15:18] Teacher**
Yeah, you should have no problems
getting in with these scores.
**[15:22] Teacher**
I guess even you can do it
when you really concentrate
**[15:24] Teacher**
and stop getting needlessly distracted.
**[15:26] Anou**
Yes, I believe so, as well.
**[15:28] Teacher**
H-Hey, what's wrong?
**[15:31] Anou**
Huh? What do you mean?
**[15:33] Teacher**
You're... crying.
**[15:35] Anou**
Huh?
**[15:37] Anou**
What? I wonder why.
***SIGN*** To Anou Shinjirou-kun,
Sorry to give you this letter out of the blue.
I know it's a very important time

**[16:05] Spooky E**
All right, I'll take care of the rest.
**[16:08] Spooky E**
Delete any memories you
have concerning the letter.
**[16:12] Anou**
*Understood.*
**[16:14] Anou**
* I have deleted any memories*
* I had... concerning the letter.*
**[16:18] Spooky E**
All right. Now go back to normal mode.
**[16:27] Anou**
* I will enter Shinyou Academy*
* and await instructions.*

Huh?
**[16:56] Jin**
You were moved by that painting.
**[16:59] Jin**
But you haven't experienced anything

You're Anou Shinjirou-kun, right?

Yes, I am.

I'm Asukai Jin. I'm in charge

**[17:15] Jin**
I've had my eye on you, Anou-kun.
**[17:19] Anou**
Why?
**[17:21] Jin**
Because you can't be saved.
**[17:25] Anou**
What do you mean by that?
**[17:28] Jin**
The one who messed with your heart
is from the Towa Organization, right?
**[17:33] Spooky E**
* You're now a servant of*
* the Towa Organization.*

**[18:19] Anou**
What's this?
**[18:37] Anou**
Are you the one who gave me the letter?
**[18:40] Anou**
Um... I'm not sure what to say.
**[18:43] Anou**
Why give me something like that?
**[18:48] Anou**
I thought it might be some kind of prank.
**[18:51] Anou**
But seriously, how'd you
get it into my bag?
**[18:54] Girl**
What? What did you just say?
**[18:57] Anou**
Huh?
**[18:58] Girl**
You found the letter in your
bag and not your shoe locker?
**[19:02] Anou**
Wh-What are you talking about? What if I did?
**[19:05] Girl**
Look out!
**[19:08] Anou**
Wh-What the heck?!
**[19:11] Spooky E**
When did you escape my control?
**[19:14] Anou**
Huh?
**[19:14] Spooky E**
The only reason you should be here
is because I ordered you to be here.
**[19:19] Anou**
Wh-What?
**[19:21] Spooky E**
You should've deleted all the
memories regarding the letter.
**[19:24] Spooky E**
And yet you found the letter.
**[19:27] Spooky E**
Whatever.
**[19:29] Spooky E**
I guess we're just going
to have to do this again.
**[19:45] Boogiepop**

man-eater I faced the other day.
**[19:49] Spooky E**
You must be the thing that
was disguised as that girl.
**[19:52] Spooky E**
Who the hell are you?!
**[19:55] Boogiepop**
I'm pretty sure you already know who I am,
**[19:59] Boogiepop**
Mr. Synthetic Human from
the Towa Organization.
**[20:02] Spooky E**
Don't tell me you're...
**[20:05] Boogiepop**
I'm currently trying to find the
Imaginator that's reemerged,
**[20:09] Boogiepop**
so normally, I couldn't care less about you...
**[20:15] Boogiepop**
But since one of your victims
is right in front of me,
**[20:18] Boogiepop**
I can hardly ignore what's going on.
**[20:26] Boogiepop**
I apologize for not giving you top
priority, but I will have to destroy you.
**[20:30] Spooky E**
Damn it... Just go ahead and try it!
**[20:48] Boogiepop**
He got away, but you should be fine now.
**[20:53] Boogiepop**
Because if he ever tries to contact
you again, I'll show up, as well.
**[20:58] Boogiepop**
Also, I'm rather curious as
to how you escaped his control,
**[21:03] Boogiepop**
but I'm sure they didn't
leave any clues behind.
**[21:10] Boogiepop**
This is the real letter.
**[21:12] Anou**
The real one?
**[21:14] Boogiepop**
They're asking you out on a date.
**[21:17] Boogiepop**
The meeting place is here, but the
date is the day after tomorrow.
**[21:21] Boogiepop**
Make sure you don't get that wrong.
***SIGN*** To Anou Shinjirou-kun,
Sorry to give you this letter out of the blue.
I know it's a very important time
and you're probably too busy,
but I wanted to tell you this.
I think I'm in love with you. Is that weird?
I don't even know my own feelings...
I know I softened the sentiment with a silly
phrase like "I think," but that's how I feel.
**[21:27] Anou**
You're right... What's going on here?
**[21:33] Anou**
* In spring of that year,*
* I got into Shinyou Academy.*
**[21:40] Masaki**
* Hey, let's celebrate. Can you meet*
* me at the usual park in a bit?*
**[21:44] Aya**
Yeah, sure.
**[21:45] Masaki**
*See you soon!*
**[21:47] Aya**
Yeah. See you.
**[22:05] Spooky E**
What are you doing here, Camille?
