[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?!

[03:59] 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?

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...

[07:35] 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!

[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?
