[00:02] Thorn
    Now, show them the way.
[00:05] Thorn
    With your song.
[00:07] μ
    Yeah, I will.
[00:11] μ
    Oh, but Thorn, promise me one thing.
[00:15] μ
    Promise that you won't do anything mean.
[00:19] Thorn
    Yes, of course.
[00:37] μ
    My heartbeat resonates through the sky,
[00:42] μ
    through endless, repeating days,
[00:48] μ
    as I carry my hidden wounds.
[00:59] μ
    The only freedom I'm allowed
[01:05] Izuru
    It's no good here anymore. Let's go.
[01:08] Izuru
    What are you doing?!
[01:10] Song
    is wandering.
[01:11] Izuru
    Let's go!
[01:13] Suzuna
    Y-Yes!
[01:14] IkeP
    Destiny!
[01:15] Song
    So since you're here,
[01:15] IkeP
    Meeting you here truly is
    a cruel stroke of destiny!
[01:19] Song
    I want you to play your harmony for me.
[01:20] IkeP
    Right, Minezawa?
[01:23] Izuru
    Who are you?
[01:26] Song
    It's like a brilliant ocean,
[01:28] Suzuna
    What's this?
[01:30] Naruko
    What is this?!
[01:30] Song
    the spilling colors melting away.
[01:35] Mifue
    Mother...
[01:36] Mother
    I'm glad to see you today, Mifu.
[01:38] Song
    Close your eyes, close your eyes.
[01:41] Song
    It's all right now.
[01:41] Mother
    I'm glad to see you today, Mifu.
[01:45] Naruko
    This seems kind of bad! Let's go!
[01:45] Mother
    I'm glad to see you today, Mifu.
[01:53] Mifue
    Later, Mom.
[01:56] Mother
    Good... bye.
[01:56] Song
    Everyone shines
[01:58] Mother
    Good... bye...
[02:01] Song
    in this sinful, eternal other world.
[02:03] Naruko
    Let's go!
[02:06] Mifue
    Mom! I'm sorry!
[02:07] Song
    It has its own gentle past,
[02:18] Song
    and wanton, distorted equality is absent.
[02:34] Song
    I'll fulfill you,
[02:38] Song
    with a powerful gesh,
[02:41] KagiP
    Good afternoon, Sempai.
[02:43] Song
    So let's go to your brainwashing.
[02:45] Song
    Even if you sometimes come to notice,
[02:46] Mirei
    Prepare yourself, little girl!
[02:49] Song
    I'll blur—
[04:24] Aria
    Kotono!
[04:28] Merei
    You're full of yourself!
[04:51] Toshizo
    Young Lady, you'll tarnish the family name
[04:54] ---
    if you behave so improperly.
[04:56] Mirei
    Toshizo, be quiet.
[04:58] Toshizo
    Understood.
[05:01] Mirei
    You wouldn't have anything to fear if
    you just kept swimming in your aquarium.
[05:06] Kotono
    Can being trapped in this small
    world really be called happiness?
[05:13] Kotono
    Those fish, that coral. They're all fake.
[05:17] Kotono
    Real fish want to swim in the real ocean.
[05:22] Mirei
    Can you still say that when the ocean
    is filthy and filled with sludge?
[05:27] Mirei
    What's wrong with living
    in this beautiful world
[05:30] ---
    created by μ to be free of pain and suffering?
[05:34] Mirei
    Why can't you understand that?
[05:37] Mirei
    You're an idiot, aren't you?
[05:43] Mifue
    Hey, what do we do?
[05:46] Naruko
    He's not picking up
[05:48] Naruko
    Shogo-sempai's the only one
[05:49] ---
    who can fight the Musicians,
    and he's not here!
[05:52] SweetP
    My, my, how terrible.
[05:56] SweetP
    It's been a while.
[05:59] Naruko
    You've shown yourself again, Nijouin!
[06:01] SweetP
    Stop it! Stop calling me by that name!
[06:05] SweetP
    No, no, no! Don't call me that!
[06:07] Naruko
    You can act like a cute girl,
     but you're really Nijouin!
[06:10] SweetP
    I told you not to call me by that name!
[06:12] Naruko
    Crap, he's pissed!
[06:14] Mifue
    Huh?!
[06:15] SweetP
    I'll shut that irritating mouth of yours!
[06:21] Mifue
    Hey, hold on!
[06:23] Naruko
    I'd love to wait, but I can't!
[06:27] SweetP
    Shall I upload this disgraceful
    display to the gossiper?
[06:31] SweetP
    You want to increase your hits, right?
[06:35] Mifue
    What's wrong?!
[06:36] SweetP
    So, were you able to apologize?
[06:41] SweetP
    To your first mother in this world?
[06:45] SweetP
    Did you explain it to her?
[06:47] SweetP
    Did you tell her why you hate fat people?
[06:50] Mifue
    My mother and I...
[06:52] SweetP
    You apologized, right?
[06:54] SweetP
    What an idiot!
[06:56] Kotono
    Be quiet!
[06:58] Mirei
    This world is wonderful.
[07:00] Mirei
    You can have anything here.
[07:02] Mirei
    So just relax and let
    yourself be brainwashed.
[07:05] Kotono
    No matter how many times you brainwash me,
     I'll still realize the truth!
[07:08] Kotono
    I guarantee it!
[07:13] Mirei
    Those who can't listen will become fish food.
[07:17] Toshizo
    Young lady, that's going too far.
[07:20] Mirei
    Silence!
[07:21] Toshizo
    Understood.
[07:22] Kotono
    I won't let someone like you interfere!
[07:32] Kotaro
    Aria, we have to do something!
[07:34] Kotaro
    Give me a weapon, too!
[07:36] Aria
    Hmm, it's not that simple, though.
[07:39] Aria
    It's still impossible for you, Kotaro.
[07:41] Kotaro
    Damn it! You mean I can't do anything?!
[07:50] Ritsu
    Kotaro, let's run.
[07:51] Kotaro
    Huh? But I...
[07:54] Ritsu
    We have to run for now!
[07:56] KagiP
    I won't let you escape!
[08:06] KagiP
    Are you all right, Sempai?
[08:09] KagiP
    You're not together with all
    your little friends today.
[08:14] Shogo
    "Friends," huh? What a cheap word.
[08:19] Shogo
    You all enjoy playing house
    in this walled garden?
[08:23] Shogo
    Play it your whole life! By yourselves!
[08:26] KagiP
    So mean.
[08:28] KagiP
    I think I might be a little ticked off.
[08:36] μ
    H-Hey, Thorn, they all seem to be in pain.
[08:40] ---
    Are you sure they're all right?
[08:42] Thorn
    This is for their own good.
[08:44] Thorn
    If we don't show them the correct path,
[08:47] ---
    then much, much worse things will happen.
[08:51] μ
    You're right.
[08:53] μ
    Yeah.
[09:04] Izuru
    Are you okay?
[09:05] Suzuna
    Huh?
[09:06] Suzuna
    Y-Yes.
[09:09] IkeP
    Too bad!
[09:12] Song
    My heartbeat resonates through the sky,
[09:14] IkeP
    I have question for you.
[09:16] IkeP
    Which of the following ticks me off the most?
[09:17] Song
    where bonds are forbidden,
[09:21] IkeP
    One: those truly with it.
[09:21] Song
    and endless grief flutters.
[09:25] IkeP
    Two: those who aren't,
    but try hard to get with it.
[09:30] IkeP
    Three: those who don't understand
    the value of getting with it.
[09:31] Song
    Ahh, my sweet world is
[09:34] IkeP
    Okay, now answer.
[09:37] Izuru
    It doesn't matter.
[09:40] IkeP
    That's not an answer at all.
[09:41] Song
    melting away!
[09:42] IkeP
    The correct answer is number three: you.
[09:45] Song
    So since you're here,
[09:46] IkeP
    You've been an eyesore for a while.
[09:49] Song
    I want you to play your harmony for me.
[09:56] Song
    It's like a brilliant ocean,
[09:57] Mirei
    If I stay here, I can live an
    elegant life the way I used to!
[09:59] Song
    taking our broken hearts
[10:01] Mirei
    Don't interfere with that, you damn bitch!
[10:03] Kotono
    You keep lying to yourself,
    running and refusing to face it!
[10:03] Song
    and wrapping them tight.
[10:06] Song
    It's all right. It's all right,
[10:07] Kotono
    I regret that now!
[10:08] Song
    There's nothing to be afraid of.
[10:11] Aria
    Kotono...
[10:12] Naruko
    Stop it already! Stop it!
[10:16] SweetP
    You want to be recognized, right?
[10:18] SweetP
    You want people to fawn over you, right?
[10:20] Naruko
    What would you know?!
[10:21] Song
    Everyone's been disgusted
[10:22] Naruko
    I...
[10:24] Izuru
    I doubt you'll ever be able to understand.
[10:26] Song
    by imperfect love,
[10:27] Izuru
    What it feels like to want
    to regain your true self.
[10:30] IkeP
    My true self? After obtaining
    such a hot face from μ?
[10:31] Song
    and is now trapped in suffering.
[10:36] IkeP
    That's like a hell of darkness.
[10:38] IkeP
    You want to go back to that reality?
[10:41] Song
    Hey, where are you going?
[10:42] Suzuna
    Is that really...
[10:44] Suzuna
    Is that really true?
[10:47] Suzuna
    Ever since I've come to Mobius,
[10:51] ---
    I've started to realize that
    I should face reality more.
[10:51] Song
    Back to your world?
[10:57] Izuru
    That's right. I can't...
[10:58] Song
    If you're going to fall
[11:01] Izuru
    I can't live here.
[11:01] Song
    while still unfulfilled,
[11:04] Aria
    I can feel everyone's emotions.
[11:06] Song
    then you'll regret it.
[11:07] Mirei
    That's stupid!
[11:10] Kotaro
    Aria!
[11:13] μ
    Aria?
[11:16] Kotaro
    H-Hey!
[11:18] ---
    Hey, Aria!
[11:22] Mirei
    Hmph, look at you! You're shaking!
[11:24] Mirei
    You're scared, you weakling.
[11:27] Kotaro
    I'm not a weakling! I'm...
[11:31] Kotaro
    I'm...
[11:33] Kotaro
    Damn it...
[11:35] Kotaro
    How can I be so powerless?
[11:38] Kotaro
    I...
[11:39] Kotaro
    I... really...
[11:48] Ritsu
    Kotaro?
[11:53] Aria
    That's it.
[11:55] Aria
    That's it, cowardly pipsqueak!
[11:59] Kotaro
    Aria...
[12:02] Kotaro
    Give me power!
[12:04] Aria
    All right!
[12:08] Aria
    Hey, you all can hear me, right?!
[12:11] Aria
    Everyone, follow my lead!
[12:14] Aria
    Okay?!
[12:21] Aria
    You truly regret it, right?
[12:24] Aria
    Not facing the things you should have...
[12:27] Aria
    Not telling anyone else the truth...
[12:31] Aria
    You've all lived suppressing those
    feelings inside yourselves, right?
[12:36] Aria
    It's been hard, and it's been painful.
[12:41] Aria
    Now, expose those feelings
    deep within your hearts!
[13:00] Aria
    They're spilling out.
[13:02] Aria
    They're spilling out now.
[13:03] Aria
    All the darkness in your hearts!
[13:08] Aria
    You can all feel it, too, right?!
[13:11] Aria
    Let all those feelings out!
[13:14] Aria
    I'll turn all that suffering and
    hardship into power for you!
[13:38] IkeP
    What is this?
[13:40] SweetP
    What's going on?!
[13:45] Kotaro
    Is this really...
[13:49] Aria
    Yes! It's the shape of your own heart!
[13:52] Aria
    That power belongs to you alone!
[13:55] Naruko
    My own power...
[13:59] Ritsu
    Everyone...
[14:06] μ
    Aria, too?
[14:07] μ
    And the others?
[14:09] μ
    Why?
[14:10] μ
    Why?
[14:12] μ
    Why?
[14:13] μ
    Why won't they understand?!
SIGN    Looking forward doesn't equal progress on its own. Understanding one's situation is also an important step.
[14:17] Kotaro
    This is my Catharsis Effect.
[14:21] Kotaro
    Now I can fight, too!
[14:28] SweetP
    Jeez, this is a pain!
[14:31] Mirei
    Honestly, they should
    listen and do as we say.
[14:35] KagiP
    But things are getting interesting now.
[14:39] IkeP
    Three minutes!
[14:41] IkeP
    No, in one minute, you'll all go to heaven!
[14:45] Shogo
    Let's go!
[14:51] Kotaro
    I'll make pancakes outta all of you!
[14:53] Mirei
    What impertinent children!
[14:56] Kotaro
    That's nothing!
[15:04] IkeP
    Tsk!
[15:12] SweetP
    What are you trying to
    do in such a crooked stance?
[15:16] Naruko
    You're full of openings yourself, aren't you?
[15:26] Mirei
    Idiots are a handful when
    they get a hold of power!
[15:36] Suzuna
    I can fight, too!
[15:40] Mirei
    A little girl after this brat?
     Cut it out already!
[15:46] Mirei
    You're persistent.
[15:48] Kotono
    That goes for both of us.
[15:55] KagiP
    Tell me, please.
[15:57] KagiP
    Why do you want to return
    to reality so badly?
[16:00] Shogo
    Because...
[16:02] Shogo
    I'm a murderer!
[16:09] IkeP
    Drop dead, you Rogues!
[16:18] Aria
    Everyone!
[16:29] Ritsu
    Why...
[16:33] Ritsu
    Why are they so desperate?
[16:38] Ritsu
    What drives them to such lengths?
[16:41] Ritsu
    I can't understand it.
[16:43] Ritsu
    Is it because I'm lacking
    the memories of reality
[16:47] ---
    that everyone else has regained?
[16:50] Ritsu
    Or is it something else?
[16:53] Aria
    Ritsu...
[16:54] Ritsu
    There has to be something for me, too.
[16:58] Ritsu
    It has to be something very painful.
[17:01] Ritsu
    Something so harsh I don't want to face it.
[17:04] Ritsu
    But I know for certain that I...
[17:06] Ritsu
    That Shikishima Ritsu exists in that world.
[17:12] Ritsu
    What am I?
[17:19] Song
    Oh, wandering heart,
[17:24] Song
    forget about everything,
[17:29] Song
    view only your ideals in this
    world guided by this song.
[17:32] Aria
    μ!
[17:40] μ
    Why?!
[17:41] μ
    Why are you doing this?!
[17:43] μ
    What's wrong with this world?!
[17:46] μ
    Besides, I asked all you Musicians
    not to do anything mean!
[17:51] μ
    No one...
[17:52] μ
    No one will listen to me at all!
[17:55] Aria
    Hey, μ!
[17:57] Aria
    I want to talk to you!
[17:59] Aria
    Please listen to me!
[18:00] μ
    Shut up!
[18:02] μ
    Shut up! Shut up!
[18:03] μ
    Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!

    All your feelings, all your happiness...
[18:10] μ
    I can save it all!
[18:13] Aria
    Hey, μ!
[18:14] μ
    I'll grant your wish,
[18:19] μ
    so tell me.
[18:25] μ
    Cry!
[18:33] Kotaro
    H-Hey! What's happening?!
[18:37] Mirei
    Hey, isn't this kind of bad?
[18:40] SweetP
    What's happening to μ?!
[18:42] Thorn
    All of you, get out of here!
[18:48] IkeP
    Hey!
[18:48] IkeP
    What are you gawking at, KagiP?!
[18:51] IkeP
    Hurry up!
[18:55] Ritsu
    Aria, what's happening to μ?
[18:58] Aria
    She can't control the power.
[19:01] Ritsu
    Control?
[19:03] Aria
    Up till now, she's been
    desperately holding back
[19:05] ---
    everyone's dark, muddy feelings within
    herself, and now they're spilling out.
[19:09] Aria
    Suffering, sadness, rage...
[19:11] Aria
    All those negative emotions
    are running amok!
[19:14] Aria
    μ, don't! Get a hold of yourself!
[19:17] Aria
    Don't lose sight of yourself!
[19:19] Aria
    At this rate, μ will cease to be μ!
[19:23] Song
    Those things that hurt you
[19:26] Song
    aren't needed here.
[19:29] Song
    Those things that hold you back
[19:32] Song
    aren't needed here.
[19:33] Aria
    μ!
[19:34] Song
    Grief isn't needed for happiness.
[19:40] Song
    Pain isn't needed for happiness.
[19:45] Song
    A cruel daily life
SIGN    is entirely, entirely unnecessary.
[19:52] Ritsu
    μ...
[19:53] Ritsu
    I've decided.
[19:56] Ritsu
    What I have to do!
[20:02] Aria
    Ritsu!
[20:03] Shogo
    He did it without Aria's help?!
[20:05] Shogo
    His own Catharsis Effect?!
[20:08] Ritsu
    μ! I don't know what's right, either!
[20:12] Ritsu
    But this world is definitely wrong!
[20:19] Ritsu
    So, μ...
[20:21] Ritsu
    I'll stand against Mobius!
[20:41] Ritsu
    μ...
[20:45] μ
    Jerk...
[20:47] μ
    Ritsu, you jerk...
[22:22] Shogo
    We're all comrades sharing the same goal,
[22:24] ---
    so we need to work together.
[22:27] Shogo
    With that in mind, how about we use club
    activities as a way to hide our actions?
[22:32] Izuru
    Club activities?
[22:33] Shogo
    Yeah, the club name will be...
[22:35] Naruko
    Hold on!
[22:36] Naruko
    Sempai, the way you name things...
[22:39] Naruko
    isn't all that great.
[22:41] Ritsu
    The Go-Home Club.
[22:43] Ritsu
    How about the Go-Home Club?
[22:46] Ritsu
    Everyone here wants to return
    home to reality, right?
[22:50] Kotaro
    Oh! I like that name!
[22:52] Kotaro
    Then I'll be the club president.
[22:54] Kotono
    No, that would be Shogo.
[22:56] Shogo
    No, I'm not the type.
[22:59] Shogo
    Ritsu, you do it.
[23:02] Ritsu
    Huh? H-Hold on!
[23:04] Ritsu
    There has to be someone better.
[23:11] Shogo
    There you have it.
[23:12] Shogo
    We're counting on you, President.
[23:16] Ritsu
    And thus, after realizing the
    lies behind this happy world,
[23:21] ---
    we all became this paradise's
    heretics, known as Rogues.
SIGN    Ow! My foot just cramped!
SIGN    When you're in a desperate situation, it's all the more important to keep smiling.
SIGN    The foot that never cramps, too!
SIGN    Tickle, tickle
SIGN    What are you doing, President?!
SIGN    When you're in a desperate situation, it's all the more important to keep smiling.
SIGN    Is that really the meaning of that aphorism?
SIGN    Bravo! Clap, clap!
