[00:01] μ
    Now reach your hand out and take hold,
[00:05] μ
    of the one and only me.
[00:08] μ
    Sing my praises out loud,
[00:11] Ritsu
    Hey, what on earth are those things?!
[00:12] μ
    about how special I am.
[00:14] Ritsu
    What are you?
[00:15] μ
    Don't be afraid, come close.
[00:16] Ritsu
    What's going on here?!
[00:17] Shogo
    This way!
[00:19] μ
    Love me, though I'm no one.
[00:31] μ
    I don't want to accept that
    I'm the same as others.
[00:34] Shogo
    Get down!
[00:38] μ
    If I pretend not to see, and
    conveniently close my eyes,
[00:42] Ritsu
    What are you doing?
[00:47] Shogo
    What has to be done.
[02:24] Ritsu
    Hey, what are those?!
[02:26] Shogo
    I'll explain later!
[02:27] Shogo
    For now, just run!
[02:37] Marie
    I don't think we should get involved.
[02:40] Marie
    I heard from my friends.
[02:43] Marie
    They call that man the fighter.
[02:45] Ritsu
    The fighter?
[02:53] Ritsu
    That's clearly more than just a normal fight.
[02:56] Shogo
    It's useless!
[02:56] Shogo
    She can't see them.
[02:59] Ritsu
    She can't...
[03:00] Ritsu
    Huh, what do you?
[03:03] Shogo
    There's no end to them.
[03:06] Ritsu
    Hey?!
[03:06] Marie
    Shikishima-kun?!
[03:14] Ritsu
    Mizuguchi-san!
[03:15] Shogo
    That woman's fine!
[03:16] Shogo
    Right now, worry about yourself!
[03:21] Shogo
    Hurry up. If they catch you, it's over.
[03:31] Naruko
    The fighter, Satake Shogo!
[03:33] Naruko
    I see he's out there getting
    into trouble as usual.
[03:37] Naruko
    Thanks for the great pieces again today!

    That guy with him was...
[03:45] Naruko
    That same guy who caused a fuss at
    the entrance ceremony, right?
[03:48] Naruko
    What on earth are those two up to?
[03:51] Naruko
    I want to know!
[03:59] Kensuke
    You should just accept it and enjoy it more.
[04:21] Shogo
    I'm sure you're feeling guilty about
    abandoning your classmate to get here,
[04:26] Shogo
    but as I said,
[04:27] Shogo
    she'll be fine.
[04:28] Ritsu
    Do you have proof of that?
    Why I should believe you?!
[04:41] Shogo
    You're a stubborn one.
[04:43] Shogo
    She hasn't noticed.
[04:45] Shogo
    So those things won't attack her.
[04:47] Ritsu
    Hasn't noticed... what?
[04:51] Shogo
    What? Something you and
    I have already realized.
[04:56] Shogo
    You know what I mean, right?
[05:04] Shogo
    You really don't?
[05:07] Shogo
    But in that case, why did that
    musician only half awaken you?
[05:13] Ritsu
    What are you saying you've noticed?
[05:16] Shogo
    Well...
[05:19] Shogo
    You know...
[05:21] Ritsu
    You won't talk about
    yourself either, will you?
[05:24] Ritsu
    I can't trust you.
[05:28] Shogo
    You're...
[05:30] Shogo
    You're the first one like me I've found.
[05:34] Ritsu
    Like you?
[05:37] Aria
    Ah, jeez!
[05:41] Aria
    Shogo, you suck at explaining!
[05:44] Shogo
    I was just about to tell him
    about it from the beginning.
[05:47] Aria
    You can't do it, so I'll explain for you.
[05:51] Aria
    Hello! I'm Aria!
[05:53] Aria
    Ritsu, please! Save μ!
[05:56] Ritsu
    What's this pipsqueak?
[06:00] Aria
    That tickles! That tickles!
    And who's a pipsqueak here?!
[06:05] Aria
    This isn't time for that, you know!
[06:08] Aria
    You were able to hear my voice, right?
[06:11] Ritsu
    Your voice?
[06:14] (Flashback) Aria
    Stop μ! Save μ!
[06:17] Ritsu
    That was you?!
[06:19] Aria
    Yes.
[06:21] Aria
    Something awful has happened to μ.
[06:25] Aria
    So, please! Save μ!
[06:28] Aria
    Please, please, I really need your help.
[06:33] Aria
    Or in this case, help μ?
[06:35] Aria
    Help what?
[06:37] Shogo
    Don't ask me.
[06:39] Ritsu
    Um... I still don't follow
    what you're saying.
[06:44] Shogo
    Your explanation is too vague!
[06:47] Aria
    That's not my fault!
[06:49] Aria
    My power, body, memory and
    everything else have floated off.
[06:52] Aria
    It's still better than
    your rough explanation!
[06:56] Shogo
    What was that?!
[06:57] Aria
    What?!
[07:00] Shogo & Aria
    Come with me!
[07:04] Shogo & Aria
    He's gone.
[07:21] Marie
    Shikishima-kun?
[07:23] Ritsu
    Mizuguchi-san, how have, uh...
[07:27] Ritsu
    How did it go?
[07:28] Marie
    Huh? Nothing important's happened.
[07:31] Marie
    I just got back from the opening ceremonies.
[07:34] Ritsu
    I see.
[07:35] Marie
    Honestly, what's wrong with you?
[07:37] Marie
    You're acting rather weird
    today, Shikishima-kun.
[07:42] Ritsu
    Mizuguchi-san...
[07:44] Marie
    What is it?
[07:46] Marie
    Shikishima-kun?
[07:48] Ritsu
    No, it's nothing.
[07:50] Marie
    Maybe you're getting worn out from reading
    all those complicated books all the time?
[07:54] Ritsu
    You think so?
[07:56] Marie
    Oh, right. You were mentioned by the gossiper.
[08:00] Marie
    I'll send it to you.
[08:02] Marie
    Well, see you tomorrow at school!
[08:04] Ritsu
    Yeah, see you tomorrow.
SIGN    You all know about the school troublemaker, Satake Shogo? If you know anything, send it over!
[08:13] Ritsu
    This is from earlier?!
SIGN    Is he strong in a fight? He keeps beating people up and getting beat down.
SIGN    Is he strong in a fight?
    
    He keeps beating people
    up and getting beat down.
    
    He doesn't seem like a delinquent,
    though. He's always alone.
SIGN    Kishimai's mad dog appears lol
    Narukonne
SIGN    Shogo-chan's the one
    getting attacked lolololol
    
    Who's that with him? A new character?
[08:24] Ritsu
    So there is a discrepancy
    in everyone's cognition.
[08:27] Ritsu
    Mass hysteria?
[08:29] Ritsu
    That, or...
[08:31] Ritsu
    No, that wouldn't explain it.
[08:33] Ritsu
    The most likely answer is...
SIGN    Man, Shogo-chan'll attack anyone he sees wearing a Kishimai uniform, won't he? He's completely crazy.
[08:40] Ritsu
    that I'm the one who's mad.
[08:48] Aria
    I hope Ritsu's okay.
[08:51] Aria
    It would be nice if he stays safe.
[08:53] Shogo
    Yeah. We need to do something
    before those guys capture him.
[09:00] Aria
    Ah!
[09:01] Aria
    This is you and Ritsu!
[09:03] Aria
    You're being recorded in secret?!
[09:06] Aria
    What, what? Someone's obsessed with you?
[09:08] Aria
    Is it a stalker?
[09:10] Aria
    I know! I know!
[09:12] Aria
    Shogo, you've made enemies
     in a lot of places, huh?
SIGN    Does anyone know anything about the commotion at the entrance ceremony hall today? Intel please!! Narukonne
[09:19] Aria
    What's the matter?
[09:20] Shogo
    We might be able to use this.
[09:23] Aria
    What do you mean?
[09:24] Shogo
    When we were in the auditorium...
[09:26] Shogo
    There were others who reacted
    like Shikishima Ritsu.
[09:30] Shogo
    There should be those in that
    group who managed to run
[09:32] ---
    and escape from the Digiheads for now.
[09:36] Aria
    You're right!
[09:37] Aria
    Let's go gather up the others!
[09:40] Shogo
    The more heads we have, the better.
[09:49] Kotaro
    We're okay.
[09:50] Kotaro
    It looks like they all went somewhere else.
[09:54] Kotaro
    Cheer up!
[09:56] Kotaro
    Tomoe Kotaro-sama is on your side!
[09:59] Suzuna
    Why did everyone...
[10:01] Suzuna
    Is there something wrong with us now?
[10:03] Kotaro
    That's not it!
[10:06] Suzuna
    My mind has been feeling
    funny since that commotion.
[10:10] Suzuna
    Like I'm me, but not me.
[10:14] Kotaro
    I-I'm not feeling funny at all!
[10:17] Kotaro
    It's my duty to rescue those in trouble.
[10:20] Kotaro
    I don't have time to be acting funny.
[10:23] Kotaro
    You'll be fine, too!
    I'm sure everyone just got sick!
[10:26] Kotaro
    I saw on TV...
[10:28] Kotaro
    There's some kind of nasty virus in
    ants or spiders that explodes outward.
[10:36] Kotaro
    Sorry!
[10:37] Kotaro
    I wasn't trying to scare you or anything.
[10:47] Ritsu
    Answer, answer...
[10:53] Ritsu
    Dammit.
[10:54] Ritsu
    Nothing from Takatsu or Yumita...
[10:58] Ritsu
    Did they already...

[13:37] Takatsu
    Are you okay?
[13:39] Takatsu
    What have you been doing since you
    ran out of the entrance ceremonies?
[13:44] Ritsu
    Hey, can I ask you something?
[13:47] Takatsu
    Hm? What is it?
[13:49] Ritsu
    At the entrance ceremonies today...
[13:51] Ritsu
    Back then, did you see anything strange?
[13:54] Takatsu
    Huh? Is your head okay?
[13:57] Takatsu
    Where are you right now, Ritsu?
[13:59] Takatsu
    Let's meet up and talk.
[14:04] Takatsu
    Come on, man!
[14:06] Ritsu
    All right.
[14:08] Ritsu
    Then let's meet at the traffic circle in
    front of the station in one hour.
[14:13] Kotaro
    Suzuna, hurry!
[14:17] Suzuna
    What is that?
[14:20] Kotaro
    I don't know, but there's
    one thing I'm sure of!
[14:25] Kotaro
    The guys back at school
    aren't the only crazy ones.
[14:31] Driver
    Where to, ma'am?
[14:36] Mifue
    Tokyo.
[14:44] Toyama
    Man, Ritsu sure is late!
[14:48] Takatsu
    He's the one who said an "in an hour," too.
[14:51] Yumita
    Maybe he forgot since he's been
    spacing out a lot here lately.
[14:58] Takatsu
    Hello, you alive?
[15:02] Ritsu
    I've been thinking about a
    lot of things since then.
[15:05] ---
    Hm?
[15:06] Ritsu
    If there were a bacterial infection
    causing some kind of pandemic,
[15:10] Ritsu
    and if this city were the
    source of the outbreak,
[15:14] Ritsu
    then it should have spread
    further outside the city by now.
[15:17] Ritsu
    But from my investigation,
[15:19] Ritsu
    there hasn't been a single report of
    any such incidents on any news sites.
[15:23] Ritsu
    No images have been recorded
    on smartphone cameras, either.
[15:25] Ritsu
    There's a large discrepancy
    between what I saw
[15:29] ---
    and what other people have perceived.
[15:32] Takatsu
    Hey! None of this is very interesting.
[15:35] Takatsu
    Where are you?!
[15:37] Ritsu
    So I thought there was some kind of
[15:39] ---
    irregularity with my own
    vision and hearing,
[15:43] ---
    causing visual and auditory hallucinations.
[15:48] Ritsu
    At least until I noticed this...
[16:02] μ
    My heartbeat resonates through the sky,
[16:06] Ritsu
    I knew it.
[16:07] μ
    through endless, repeating days,
[16:07] Ritsu
    μ's song was always playing when
    people like you would attack me.
[16:13] μ
    Plus, this sight is unmistakably
    not an illusion.
[16:13] μ
    as I carry my hidden wounds.
[16:19] μ
    I'm not the one who has gone mad.
[16:23] Ritsu
    I'm not crazy!
[16:27] Thorn
    It would seem there's someone
    your feelings haven't reached.
[16:31] μ
    Why?
[16:33] μ
    What am I doing wrong?
[16:36] μ
    I just want to make
    everyone happy. That's all.
[16:41] Thorn
    We, the Ostinato Musicians,
    will show them the way, so don't worry.
[16:47] Thorn
    Now, please sing for them, μ.
[16:52] μ
    Hey, let's stare into each other's eyes
    and race through the night sky.
[16:58] μ
    Don't cry. I'll fly again in your eyes.
[17:06] Ritsu
    What's going on here?
[17:11] Ritsu
    Them, too?!
[17:16] μ
    There's a bunny playing amongst the comets,
[17:22] μ
    In this dazzlingly dark universe
[17:27] Takatsu
    Ritsu, you're late!
[17:28] μ
    It's mysterious, and mysterious
    that it's mysterious.
[17:30] Yumita
    You really kept us waiting!
[17:33] Toyama
    So, what did you want?
[17:33] μ
    I found your voice here again,
[17:39] μ
    and aging stars burst in supernovas,
[17:47] μ
    giving birth.
[17:49] Kotaro
    Damn, they're appearing again!
[17:50] μ
    In this nebulous sadness,
    no matter how scared you are,
[17:51] Kotaro
    Suzuna, hurry!
[17:56] μ
    I'll always hold you tight.
[18:01] Bus
    Now departing.
[18:02] μ
    When the gentle breeze blows
    throw the cracks of our cosmos,
[18:08] μ
    I'll accept all your desires,
[18:10] Kotaro
    I knew it, these ones with the staticky heads
[18:13] ---
    seem different from the pointy-headed
     ones that attacked us earlier.
[18:16] μ
    In the orbit of our souls.
[18:28] Toyama
    What are you so dissatisfied with?
[18:28] μ
    Don't turn around, your home
    is here, isn't it? Right?
[18:30] Yumita
    We've been having a fun
    time together, haven't we?
[18:32] Yumita
    Right, Ritsu?
[18:39] Shogo
    I finally found you.
[18:39] μ
    You don't have to strong. You can be pitiful.
[18:42] Toyama
    Rogue.
[18:43] Toyama
    Eliminate!
[18:45] Aria
    Shogo! Get them!
[18:45] μ
    Just keep believing, in my eyes.
[18:57] Kensuke
    So hot-blooded.
[19:06] Ritsu
    Takatsu, Yumita...
[19:09] Shogo
    You all right, Shikishima Ritsu?
[19:14] Aria
    Hey! You!
[19:15] Shogo
    I won't keep you here anymore.
[19:17] Aria
    Shogo?!
[19:18] Shogo
    But if you feel like talking...
[19:21] Shogo
    We'll be in the music prep room
    inside the old school building.
[19:26] Aria
    Was it okay to let him go like that?
[19:29] Shogo
    Who knows?
[19:32] Shogo
    But nothing others say
[19:35] ---
    can help anyone accept it.
[19:41] Shogo
    Until they confirm it with their own eyes,
[19:43] ---
    they have no way to understand
[19:46] Shogo
    the circumstances they've been thrown into.
[19:53] Bus
    Next Stop, Okitama. Okitama.
[19:57] Bus
    This is the final stop for this train.
[19:59] Bus
    Please be sure to take your belongings
    and be careful as you leave.
[20:03] Ritsu
    I thought the last stop was much farther out?
[20:08] Kotaro
    They're telling us to get
    off here? What's going on?
[20:12] Kotaro
    Right, Suzuna?
[20:13] Kotaro
    Hm?
[20:15] Mifue
    Hey!
[20:16] Mifue
    We haven't made it to Tokyo!
[20:32] Ritsu
    If this is a pandemic, I'm not
    the one suffering from it.
[20:37] Ritsu
    Then, what's...
[20:44] Kotaro
    What is this?!
[21:10] μ
    I'm sorry.
[21:11] μ
    I haven't created anything past this point yet.
[21:14] μ
    Right now, I can't create any
    farther regions for Mobius.
[21:19] Ritsu
    What do you mean? What are you saying?!
[21:21] μ
    I can create anything else you'd like, though.
[21:25] μ
    What would you like?
[21:26] μ
    A new family?
[21:28] μ
    Friends? Or...
[21:36] Mifue
    Oh, right...
[21:39] Mifue
    I need to search for my mother.
[21:45] Ritsu
    I finally understand.
[21:47] Ritsu
    Neither myself, Takatsu,
    nor the others were mad.
[21:52] Ritsu
    This world is mad!
[23:27] Voice
    Chirp, chirp.
SIGN    Episode 3 Why do we live? The further we pursue the meaning of life, the more confused we become.
[23:27] Shogo
    Oh, no! I've confused the president!
SIGN    Why do we live?
[23:32] ---
    The further we pursue the meaning of life,
     the more confused we become.
[23:37] Shogo
    Are you really confused?
[23:39] Ritsu
    I am.
[23:39] Voice
    Chirp, chip.
