[00:00] Tanizaki
    You... You...
[00:00] Atsushi
    N-Naomi-san, Tanizaki-san
    can't really take jokes!
[00:00] Tanizaki
    Hear me out, Kyouka-chan!
[00:00] Tanizaki
    Atsushi-kun!
[00:00] Tanizaki
    I thought you weren't like that!
[00:00] Kyouka
    What's the matter?
[00:00] Rampo
    I know.
[00:00] Yosano
    Drink, Kunikida!
[00:00] Kunikida
    Here I go.
[00:00] Yosano
    Good job!
[00:00] Yosano
    You're quite a cheap drunk, aren't you?
[00:00] Atsushi
    Naomi-san!
[00:00] Naomi
    You better take responsibility.
[00:00] Atsushi
    Kyouka-chan!
[00:00] Kyouka
    Despicable!
[00:00] Atsushi
    What?
[00:00] Kunikida
    I am.
[00:00] Kunikida
    I-I have a lot of work tomorrow.
[00:00] Yosano
    Drink!
[00:00] Kunikida
    Wait, I --
[00:00] Kunikida
    I can't chug like that.
[00:09] Francis
    Come!
[00:10] Atsushi
    Beast Beneath the Moonlight!
[00:14] Akutagawa
    Rashoumon Demonic Armor!
[00:38] Francis
    Come on, now.
[00:39] Francis
    I don't want to have spent
    all that money on nothing.
[00:45] Atsushi
    Three minutes left.
[00:49] Dazai
    Kyouka-chan, if you'd prefer, I can
    set you up with a life of killing.
[00:59] Dazai
    But your anguish isn't yours alone.
[01:03] Dazai
    What should one do, when what they
    want to be isn't what they're best at?
[01:09] Dazai
    Everyone fights, searching for the
    correct way to live their lives.
[01:14] Dazai
    What do they seek by fighting?
[01:19] Dazai
    How ought they live?
[01:22] Dazai
    No one can say.
[01:26] Dazai
    All we have is the right to waver.
[01:32] Dazai
    Like stray dogs that have hit rock bottom.
[01:43] Akutagawa
    No!
[02:00] Akutagawa
    Weretiger!
[02:27] Akutagawa
    If he's right...
[02:31] Akutagawa
    It is worthless.
[02:34] Akutagawa
    The words of your past are fundamentally
    unrelated to who you are now.
[02:41] Atsushi
    If I may shed away my burden now, I will...
[02:50] Akutagawa
    Die, weretiger!
[04:02] Atsushi
    I'm spent.
[04:05] Atsushi
    If he stands back up...
[04:15] Francis
    I won, Zelda.
[04:21] Francis
    Wait for me.
[04:23] Francis
    I'll bring you happiness once more.
[04:42] Atsushi
    Right, the control terminal.
[04:47] Akutagawa
    You fool.
[04:49] Akutagawa
    I took it from him during the last attack.
[04:53] Atsushi
    Dammit!
[04:54] Atsushi
    We need to stop it!
[05:04] Akutagawa
    I'd love to rip you to shreds right now but,
    unfortunately, I've used up all my strength.
[05:10] Akutagawa
    You'll have to make do with this.
[05:12] Atsushi
    You're going to pay for
    this when we next meet.
[05:29] Atsushi
    Descending?
[05:31] Atsushi
    It can't be.
[05:32] Atsushi
    I haven't done anything.
[05:33] Akutagawa
    Hand it over.
[05:38] Akutagawa
    It isn't responding.
[05:41] Akutagawa
    Something's going on.
[05:47] Atsushi
    No good.
[05:48] Atsushi
    It isn't responding here, either.
[05:50] Atsushi
    It's going to fall!
[05:52] Kyouka
    That voice...
[05:54] Atsushi
    We're out of time.
[05:55] Atsushi
    We need to do something, or everyone's dead.
[05:58] Herman
    It's no use.
[06:00] Herman
    Someone has infiltrated from the outside.
[06:03] Herman
    They've taken control.
[06:06] Atsushi
    No.
[06:08] Kyouka
    There's still a way.
[06:10] Atsushi
    That voice...
[06:12] Atsushi
    Kyouka-chan?!
[06:13] Kyouka
    I heard about the situation.
[06:15] Kyouka
    Even if the Moby Dick can't
    be stopped from falling,
[06:17] Kyouka
    with enough force from above, it can be
    destroyed before it reaches the city.
[06:23] Kyouka
    I'll use this drone.
[06:25] Atsushi
    I see.
[06:26] Atsushi
    That's amazing, Kyouka-chan.
[06:28] Atsushi
    We can save everyone.
[06:30] Atsushi
    Prepare the parachutes, please.
[06:34] Atsushi
    You need to escape now, too.
[06:36] Kyouka
    I can't.
[06:39] Kyouka
    I'm captive here.
[06:41] Kyouka
    My ankles are chained down.
[06:44] Kyouka
    I can't make it to the evacuation system.
[06:48] Atsushi
    No...
[06:50] Atsushi
    Then...
[06:52] Kyouka
    Forget about me.
[06:54] Atsushi
    No!
[06:55] Atsushi
    I won't allow it!
[06:56] Atsushi
    Change course!
[06:58] Kyouka
    I didn't have a single
    ray of light until now.
[07:04] Kyouka
    But today, I understood. I have choices.
[07:10] Kyouka
    If I sacrifice myself to save everyone
    else, I'll pass the entrance exam.
[07:17] Kyouka
    I can really become a
    member of the Agency.
[07:20] Kyouka
    I would regret nothing.
[07:22] Atsushi
    Stop it!
[07:26] Atsushi
    Let go!
[07:27] Atsushi
    Akutagawa!
[07:28] Atsushi
    Kyouka-chan, listen to me!
[07:34] Kyouka
    Thank you.
[07:36] Kyouka
    I'm sorry.
[08:02] Atsushi
    Kyouka-chan!
[08:18] Atsushi
    Why?
[08:20] Atsushi
    Why her?
[08:25] Akutagawa
    Kyouka...
[08:27] Akutagawa
    What a fool.
[08:29] Akutagawa
    If she hadn't embraced the hope of living in
    light, she wouldn't have had to die in vain.
[08:38] Dazai
    This is how it ought to
    have been, Atsushi-kun.
[08:43] Atsushi
    Dazai-san.
[08:44] Atsushi
    Boss?
[08:47] Dazai
    Kyouka-chan overcame herself
    and saved the city.
[08:51] Dazai
    With the high-mindedness
    expected of the Agency.
[08:55] Atsushi
    But there was no reason she had to die.
[08:59] Dazai
    True, this is a merciless conclusion.
[09:02] Dazai
    But there was a reason that
    it had to be this way.
[09:07] Fukuzawa
    My ability, All Men Are Created Equal,
[09:12] Fukuzawa
    has an effect only on my subordinates...
    That is, on members of the Agency.
[09:17] Dazai
    The ability allows for control over the
    output of the abilities of another.
[09:23] Dazai
    The reason you're able to control your tiger
    abilities now is because you joined the Agency.
[09:30] Dazai
    And Kyouka-chan passed the entrance exam.
[09:34] Dazai
    Right in the instant before the impact.
[09:36] Dazai
    Do you understand what that means?
[09:45] Kyouka
    I used Demon Snow's katana to
    cut the chain and escape.
[09:51] Kyouka
    I'm back.
[09:58] Atsushi
    Welcome back.
[10:01] Kyouka
    You're hurting me.
[10:03] Atsushi
    Sorry.
[10:04] Dazai
    Sorry I kept it from you both.
[10:09] Dazai
    If I hadn't, it wouldn't have
    made for a proper entrance exam.
[10:15] (Flashback) Dazai
    Do we end in the mountains?
[10:16] (Flashback) Rampo
    At sea.
[10:18] (Flashback) Dazai
    Roger.
[10:21] Atsushi
    Was this all planned from the beginning?
[10:24] Dazai
    The enemy's been defeated,
    and Kyouka-chan passed.
[10:28] Dazai
    I'm glad it all worked out.
[10:30] Akutagawa
    Dazai-san!
[10:31] Akutagawa
    There's no one left to get in my way.
[10:33] Akutagawa
    Please see my strength now.
[10:36] Dazai
    I don't know.
[10:38] Dazai
    You're at your limit now, aren't you?
[10:40] Dazai
    You just defeated the
    Guild's leader, after all.
[10:42] Akutagawa
    That's irrelevant.
[10:44] Akutagawa
    I am—
[10:47] Dazai
    You've become strong.
[10:57] Dazai
    Oh, whoops.
[11:02] Dazai
    Nice view, isn't it?
[11:09] Dazai
    You protected it.
[11:14] Dazai
    It's your city.
SIGN    Episode 24: If I May Shed Away My Burden Now
[11:22] Atsushi
    My city, huh?
[11:30] Ango
    The massive gifted war caused so
    much collateral damage in Yokohama.
[11:33] Ango
    And it's finally over.
[11:35] Ango
    But the government's work
    is just getting started.
[11:39] Ango
    Cleaning up after this huge mess...
[11:42] Ango
    I won't be sleeping at home for days.
[11:45] Ango
    Given that, we would very much appreciate
    having your help, Mr. Herman.
[11:54] Herman
    I just want to watch the sea for now.
[11:58] Ango
    With your information, we won't have to
    arrest Guild members who weren't part of this.
[12:05] Herman
    Do you think that a mere grunt like
    myself would have such information?
[12:11] Ango
    Yes.
[12:12] Ango
    You were the leader of the Guild
    two generations ago, after all.
[12:18] Herman
    It pains me that you young'uns always
    insist on bringing up the past.
[12:23] Ango
    Please help us overcome
    our sleep deprivation.
[12:27] Ango
    I don't need to use this, do I?
[12:49] Mark
    I never imagined the Moby
    Dick being underwater.
[12:53] Mark
    It was such a nice place.
[12:55] John
    The Moby Dick?
[12:57] Mark
    The Guild.
[12:59] Mark
    The boss is missing in action.
[13:01] Mark
    I hear there are even insurgencies within
    the Guild, now that we don't have a leader.
[13:05] Mark
    Looks like it's time to lower
    the curtain on our adventures here.
[13:10] John
    Yeah.
[13:12] John
    But life isn't over.
[13:14] Mark
    That's true.
[13:16] Mark
    I'm going to go back home and
    finish working on my biography.
[13:20] Mark
    What about you guys?
[13:22] Louisa
    I'm going to look for Lord Francis.
[13:26] Louisa
    I'm sure he's alive.
[13:29] Mark
    You're going back to your
    family, right, John?
[13:32] John
    I'm not.
[13:35] John
    I have to stop the insurgency in the Guild.
[13:37] Mark
    You?
[13:39] Mark
    That's a surprise.
[13:41] Mark
    I thought you hated the boss.
[13:44] Mark
    I do.
[13:45] Mark
    I hate anyone who controls
    people with money.
[13:49] Mark
    But he depended on his wealth to save
    his family, and this was the result.
[13:55] Mark
    I can't bring myself to just leave.
[13:58] Lovecraft
    The contract...
[14:02] Lovecraft
    is finally fulfilled.
[14:04] Mark
    You made it, huh, Lovecraft?
[14:07] Mark
    What's going to become of you now?
[14:13] Lovecraft
    I sleep.
[14:20] Mark
    Who is that guy?
[14:22] John
    What does it matter?
[14:25] John
    He's one of my few friends.
[14:34] Atsushi
    Kyouka-chan.
[14:37] Atsushi
    Go ahead.
[14:56] A
    Ready, and...
[14:57] A
    Congratulations on joining
    the Agency, Kyouka-chan!
[15:05] A
    Cheers!
[15:28] Kunikida
    Atsushi.
[15:30] Kunikida
    How are your injuries?
[15:32] Atsushi
    I'm all better now.
[15:34] Kunikida
    Your actions have saved the
    city from destruction.
[15:38] Kunikida
    I thought I should say something,
    as your senior here at the Agency.
[15:46] Kunikida
    First of all, solo operations are an
    exception at group organizations such as ours.
SIGN    Blah, blah, blah...
[15:50] Kunikida
    I won't tell you not to apply the experience
    you gained from this in the future,
[15:52] Kunikida
    but don't dare neglect the
    Agency's prime activities.
[15:53] Kunikida
    Likewise for Kyouka.
[15:54] Kunikida
    Be mindful of the fact that you are
    a member of the Detective Agency,
[15:57] Kunikida
    and act in a way that none
    would be ashamed of.
[15:58] Yosano
    No kidding, Kunikida.
[16:01] Yosano
    You're all such buzzkills.
[16:04] Yosano
    Drink with me.
[16:06] Kunikida
    No, I'd rather not drink much.
[16:09] Yosano
    Isn't there something you wanted to say?
[16:13] Kunikida
    You did well, the both of you.
[16:16] Yosano
    All right, let's drink all night!
[16:19] Kunikida
    Please, no.
[16:20] Yosano
    Are you telling me you can't drink with me?
[16:23] Atsushi
    Act in a way that none
    would be ashamed of, huh?
[16:28] Atsushi
    Haruno-san, Naomi-san.
[16:32] Atsushi
    I'm sorry.
[16:35] Atsushi
    I did some awful things to
    you thanks to Q's abilities.
[16:40] Atsushi
    It would never have happened if
    I'd known how unstable I was.
[16:47] A
    Oh, that?
[16:50] Atsushi
    I'm really sorry.
[16:55] Haruno
    Atsushi-kun, that wasn't that bad.
[16:58] Naomi
    We can't keep holding
    on to stuff like that here.
[17:01] Atsushi
    Really?
[17:02] Haruno
    Yes.
[17:04] Atsushi
    Thank goodness.
[17:06] Atsushi
    There was something seriously wrong with
    me, to have done what I did to you.
[17:13] Tanizaki
    Atsushi-kun.
[17:15] Tanizaki
    I've never heard about this until now.
[17:18] Tanizaki
    Atsushi-kun, what is this about?
[17:21] Atsushi
    Please, stay calm.
[17:22] Poe
    Rampo-kun, I brought the new piece that
    you inquired about over the phone.
[17:23] Kunikida
    I can't.
[17:25] Naomi
    I'm damaged goods!
[17:27] Yosano
    Kunikida!
[17:28] Atsushi
    N-Naomi-san?!
[17:29] Kunikida
    Yosano-sensei, I think you've
    had too much to drink.
[17:30] Rampo
    Oh, hey.
[17:31] Rampo
    Thanks for coming.
[17:33] Tanizaki
    A-Atsushi-kun!
[17:33] Poe
    Do I really belong here?
[17:35] Kenji
    Rampo-san, the boss wants you.
[17:37] Poe
    I'm from an enemy organization.
[17:39] Rampo
    I'll be right back.
[17:40] Atsushi
    K-Kyouka-chan?!
[17:40] Rampo
    Stay right there.
[17:42] Poe
    Rampo-kun.
[17:43] Kyouka
    What?!
[17:44] Yosano
    Kunikida!
[17:45] Fukuzawa
    That was an impressive operation.
[17:46] Kyouka
    W-Wait, Kyouka-chan...
[17:47] Kyouka
    Don't make excuses, it's unmanly!
[17:48] Fukuzawa
    The Agency would be nothing without you.
[17:50] Atsushi
    What did you tell her, Tanizaki-san?
[17:52] Tanizaki
    All the naughty things you did.
[17:54] Poe
    They seem to be having fun, huh, Karl?
SIGN    He likes being left out?
[18:07] Chuya
    It's a '64 Romane.
[18:10] Kouyou
    May I really?
[18:12] Kouyou
    Isn't it your treasure?
[18:14] Chuya
    Is there a better day than today to open it?
[18:21] Ougai
    To victory.
[18:27] Ougai
    This is delicious.
[18:30] Chuya
    Boss, how shall we punish Akutagawa?
[18:33] Ougai
    Punish?
[18:35] Ougai
    He was instrumental in our success.
[18:38] Ougai
    Akutagawa-kun has always been this way.
[18:41] Ougai
    He runs off by himself, he causes
    destruction and, in the end, he contributes the most.
[18:46] Ougai
    He has a strong nose.
[18:49] Ougai
    So long as he continues to succeed,
    there will be no punishment.
[18:52] Ougai
    Say, Kouyou-kun, why did you not try to
    escape when you were captured by the Agency?
[18:59] Ougai
    It ought to have been easy for you.
[19:02] Kouyou
    I wonder why.
[19:06] Kouyou
    Perhaps because the tea was so delicious.
[19:09] (Flashback) Dazai
    Sister, let's make a deal, as two grown-ups.
[19:13] (Flashback) Dazai
    I have a plan for saving Kyouka-chan.
[19:15] (Flashback) Kouyou
    What?
[19:17] (Flashback) Dazai
    If we succeed, it'll be the only way to
    protect both her life and her dreams.
[19:25] Kouyou
    Dazai saw how it would all play out.
[19:30] Kouyou
    What a terrifying man.
[19:32] Chuya
    Pfft.
[19:33] Ougai
    Kouyou-kun, you are strong.
[19:37] Ougai
    Now that your beloved Kyouka-kun is gone, it
    would be difficult for me to chase you down,
[19:44] Ougai
    should you decide to leave
    the Port Mafia now.
[19:47] Kouyou
    Of course.
[19:49] Kouyou
    Sadly, I must help a clumsy leader
    with reestablishing the organization.
[19:56] Ougai
    I'm grateful, but I deal only
    with those under twelve.
[20:01] Kouyou
    Silence.
[20:03] Kouyou
    I'll sew your lips shut.
[20:04] Chuya
    Dazai!
[20:06] Chuya
    You're so dead!
[20:12] A
    It's so cute!
[20:20] Atsushi
    Hey, where's Dazai-san?
[20:32] Dazai
    What a weird painting.
[20:34] Dazai
    I bet even I could do it.
[20:40] Dazai
    Hirotsu-san, thanks for the help.
[20:44] Hirotsu
    Did I do enough?
[20:47] Hirotsu
    All I did was leak the Moby Dick
    infiltration route to Higuchi-kun.
[20:51] Dazai
    If she knows, she will tell Akutagawa-kun.
[20:55] Dazai
    If Akutagawa-kun knows, he
    will come in by himself.
[20:59] Dazai
    It was as I expected.
[21:01] Hirotsu
    Why did you go through all that trouble
[21:04] Hirotsu
    to bring Akutagawa-kun
    together with the tiger boy?
[21:07] Dazai
    I wanted to be sure.
[21:10] Dazai
    For the real disaster that's about to come.
[21:16] Dazai
    He's already on the move.
[21:21] Fyodor
    So the destruction of the
    Moby Dick was a failure.
[21:25] Fyodor
    Still, just about everything
    is according to plan.
[21:27] Fyodor
    We succeeded in creating strife within the
    Guild and recruiting talented gifteds.
[21:34] Nathaniel
    I'm only helping for the time being
    to fulfill my end of the deal
[21:38] Nathaniel
    and have Margaret brought
    back to consciousness.
[21:42] Fyodor
    That's fine by me, Pastor.
SIGN    Fyodor D.
SIGN    Ability: Crime and Punishment
[21:47] Nathaniel
    Let us paint the land with the
    blood of the guilty together.
[21:52] Nathaniel
    For a better world.
[21:57] Dazai
    We won't be able to avoid going to war
    with that demon I've fought in the past.
[22:04] Dazai
    Akutagawa-kun is formidable enough by himself,
[22:08] Dazai
    but his abilities are most
    valuable in a supporting role.
[22:12] Dazai
    In complementing a forward
    attacker such as Atsushi-kun,
[22:15] Dazai
    with his speed and toughness,
    he could be a powerful ally.
[22:20] Dazai
    We'll need to be more powerful than before
    in order to fight with that demon.
[22:26] Dazai
    Something more powerful than
