[00:04] Kensuke
    Even so, that's surprising.
[00:07] Kensuke
    We Musicians often come here ourselves,
[00:10] Kensuke
    but I never would've thought this is a key
    location for returning to the real world.
[00:15] Aria
    Yeah.
[00:16] Aria
    Some of my power's returned
    since μ fell asleep
[00:20] ---
    and her influence over Mobius waned.
[00:23] Kensuke
    So then, at one point you also
    possessed the same power as μ?
[00:28] Aria
    Well yeah, though I'm still
    not back in perfect condition.
[00:32] Aria
    I'm finally able to sense
    that location, though.
[00:36] Kensuke
    The door at the top of this tower, you mean?
[00:40] Aria
    Yes. The Door of Judgment.
[00:43] Kensuke
    Isn't that just a simple entrance
    to the room the Musicians are using
[00:46] ---
    as their headquarters?
[00:48] Aria
    No. Your base is outside this Miyabi City.
[00:52] Kensuke
    Outside Miyabi City?
[00:54] Aria
    The Door of Judgment is the sole portal
[00:57] ---
    capable of passage between Mobius and
    the space outside. In other words...
[01:01] Kensuke
    That door also connects to the real world?!
[01:04] Aria
    Yes!
[01:05] Kotaro
    Then that means we can return to
    the real world through that door!
[01:09] Aria
    Well, that's not actually true.
[01:12] Aria
    The only ones capable of linking
    the Door of Judgment to reality
[01:16] ---
    are the scant few able to access the
    deeply stored data that composes Mobius.
[01:21] Kensuke
    Meaning μ?
[01:23] Aria
    If μ cooperates with us,
[01:26] ---
    then we can use that door to
    return you all to the real world!
[01:29] Kensuke
    That doesn't sound like something
    we can really count on.
[01:32] Aria
    That's not true!
[01:34] Aria
    Earlier, μ was just confused
    about all that's happened!
[01:38] Aria
    Once she gets good rest,
    recovers, and hears us out,
[01:41] ---
    then I'm sure she'll go back to
    the kind μ she's always been.
[01:46] Kensuke
    Though the Musicians are
    gathering here tonight as well.
[01:49] Kensuke
    Before we can talk to μ...
[01:51] Kotono
    We're not going to be able
    to avoid fighting them.
[01:54] Kotaro
    All right!
[01:55] Kotaro
    Let's settle this! Today!
[03:31] Kotaro
    We're finally going to
    return to reality, huh?
[03:34] Suzuna
    Kotaro-sempai, have you already decided
    what you're going to do when you get back?
[03:39] Kotaro
    Well...
[03:40] Naruko
    Rescue Man, right?
[03:42] Kotaro
    No! Not that!
[03:46] Kotaro
    What about you, anyway?
[03:47] Naruko
    Me?
[03:49] Naruko
    Probably be a novelist.
[03:51] Kotaro
    Huh? Can you write novels?
[03:54] Naruko
    I don't know.
[03:56] Naruko
    But I want to try.
[03:59] Mifue
    I want to read them.
[04:01] Naruko
    Thanks.
[04:02] Kensuke
    And you, Izuru-sempai?
[04:04] Izuru
    Live on my own.
[04:05] Kotaro
    That's kind of boring.
[04:08] Suzuna
    Shogo-sempai, are you all right?
[04:11] Shogo
    It's nothing.
[04:15] Aria
    What?!
[04:16] Kotono
    What's wrong?
[04:17] Kotono
    I can hear the cries of their hearts!
[04:26] Kotaro
    It's that cry from before!
[04:27] Kotaro
    Aria! Where's it coming from?!
[04:29] Aria
    Uh... the 18th floor, east side.
[04:33] Naruko
    Hey! Hold on!
[04:35] Kotono
    Kotaro-kun?!
[04:47] Student
    Stop it!
[04:48] Kotaro
    Here?!
[04:48] Student
    Just make it stop already!
[04:49] Kotaro
    What are you guys doing?!
[05:06] Kotaro
    These spiky bastards...
[05:33] Kotaro
    Hey, you okay?
[05:35] Student
    Yeah, you saved me.
[05:38] Student
    Where am I?
[05:39] Kotaro
    Landmark Tower.
[05:41] Student
    Huh? But Landmark Tower's...
[05:48] Kotaro
    Hey, what's wrong?
[05:49] Kotaro
    Get a grip!
[05:51] Student
    It's him! It's him!
[05:55] Kotaro
    Hey!
[05:58] Shadow Knife
    Are you getting in my way?
[06:00] Shadow Knife
    Then I'll need to eliminate you as well.
[06:03] Kotaro
    You're a Musician?!
[06:05] Shadow Knife
    I am the guardian of hell,
    commander of darkness.
[06:20] Wicked
    Argh, jeez!
[06:22] Wicked
    This is irritating!
[06:24] Wicked
    It's taking too long, you know!
[06:27] Thorn
    Be quiet, Wicked.
[06:30] Wicked
    We should just finish them off at once.
[06:32] Wicked
    I'll wreck them for you.
[06:36] Thorn
    That lack of patience is a problem.
[06:40] Thorn
    It will be time to use your power soon.
[06:43] Thorn
    Until then, bear with it.
[06:45] Wicked
    I finally get to play!
[06:48] Thorn
    However, that one man you
    are not to lay hands on.
[06:50] Wicked
    Huh?
[06:52] Thorn
    Satake Shogo, he's my prey.
[06:57] Mifue
    Hey.
[06:58] Mifue
    Hey, Shogo-sempai, are you listening?
[07:01] Shogo
    Yeah.
[07:02] Suzuna
    We need to go after Kotaro-sempai.
[07:05] Naruko
    Ahh, jeez, why does he go running off
    on his own even at times like this?!
[07:10] Kotono
    Hey, what are we going to do, President?
[07:17] Ritsu
    Let's hurry.
[07:19] Mifue
    Huh?!
[07:19] Mifue
    What are you saying?
[07:21] Ritsu
    Kotaro should understand.
[07:24] Ritsu
    Our top priority is returning to reality.
[07:27] Kotono
    I know it is, but...
[07:29] Naruko
    Aren't you being a little cold?
[07:38] Aria
    Ah, again!
[07:42] Student
    Please let me go! Please!
[07:42] Aria
    These are all voices of
    people crying out for help!
[07:44] Student
    Someone! Anyone!
[07:48] Kensuke
    Do we go help them?
[07:50] Kensuke
    Or do we abandon them and go on ahead?
[07:53] Kensuke
    Well, well, that's a
    difficult choice to make.
[08:00] Suzuna
    I can't.
[08:06] Aria
    Suzuna!
[08:06] Kotono
    Hey, Suzuna-chan!
[08:10] Kensuke
    Oh well.
[08:14] Izuru
    I just hope this isn't
    a trap set by the Musicians.
[08:16] Mifue
    Huh?
[08:17] Mifue
    That couldn't possibly be true, right?
[08:24] Kotaro
    Where the hell did he go?
[08:28] Shadow Knife
    I am the one who lurks in shadows.
[08:30] Shadow Knife
    Imperceivable by normal men.
[08:45] Shadow Knife
    I believe I told you it's futile.
[08:48] Shadow Knife
    Give up. Someone like you...
[08:52] Kotaro
    I'm not giving up!
[08:58] Kotaro
    No matter what happens!
[09:00] Kotaro
    If someone's in trouble, I'll save them!
[09:02] Kotaro
    I'll never give up on them!
[09:06] Shadow Knife
    And you claim that is your justice?
[09:08] Kotaro
    Of course it is!
[09:13] Aria
    Over there!
[09:21] Kotono
    This is...
[09:22] Suzuna
    They forced her to eat rotten food.
[09:25] Suzuna
    I'm going to untie you now, so
    please hold on a little longer.
[09:25] Kensuke
    This is his doing, without a doubt.
[09:42] Shadow Knife
    You'll be rust on my blade.
[09:45] Kotaro
    Shadow Knife, right?
[09:47] Kotaro
    I knew it.
[09:49] Kotaro
    That outfit, that manner of speaking...
[09:51] Kotaro
    It's Shadow Knife, the anime hero, right?
[09:56] Kotaro
    You admired heroes and
    wanted to become one,
[09:59] Kotaro
    so you came to Mobius, didn't you?
[10:02] Kotaro
    In that case, why are you
    doing things like this?
[10:06] Kotaro
    You're supposed to be a hero!
[10:08] Kotaro
    So why are you tormenting the weak?!
[10:11] Shadow Knife
    You don't understand anything.
[10:15] Kotaro
    You're the only thing I don't understand.
[10:17] Kotaro
    You managed to become a hero, right?
[10:20] Kotaro
    So why are you using your power for this?
[10:22] Kotaro
    You're the one I'll never forgive!
[10:30] Kensuke
    Shadow Knife...
[10:32] Kensuke
    Here in Mobius, he obtained the same
    powers as the anime character
[10:36] ---
    and took to torturing those he doesn't like.
[10:38] Kensuke
    But I'm shocked that he
    was this cruel about it.
[10:44] Kotono
    Hey, get a grip!
[10:48] Kotaro
    Grit your teeth!
[10:50] Kotaro
    I'm going to beat that rotten
    personality of yours back into shape!
[10:55] Kotaro
    Listen, I do understand
[10:58] Kotaro
    what it feels like to be the victim.
[11:01] Kotaro
    No matter how much you beg for help...
[11:03] Kotaro
    No matter how loud you scream...
[11:05] Kotaro
    It never reaches anyone!
[11:08] Kotaro
    I bet you don't understand that.
[11:10] Kotaro
    What it feels like to be bullied!
[11:22] Kotaro
    Where did he go?!
[11:24] Student
    H-Hey, is someone there?!
[11:27] Student
    O-Over here! Hurry!
[11:29] Student
    Help me, hurry!
[11:32] Kotaro
    I'm coming!
[11:40] Kotaro
    Hey, are you all right?
[11:42] Student
    Yeah, I know!
[11:44] Student
    I know!
[11:45] Student
    It was my fault, all of it!
[11:47] Kotaro
    Get a grip!
[11:48] Kotaro
    You're fine now!
[11:50] Student
    I remembered it all.
[11:52] Student
    So, please forgive me!
[11:54] Kotaro
    Do you mean...
[11:56] Kotaro
    Did you regain your memories
    of the real world?!
[12:01] Student
    It was him!
[12:02] Student
    He did this!
[12:10] Kotaro
    Shadow Knife...
[12:12] Student
    You...
[12:13] Student
    You're Yamada!
[12:14] Student
    I know it!
[12:15] Student
    You're holding a damn grudge
    over what happened in the past!
[12:18] Kotaro
    What do you mean?
[12:19] Student
    That guy...
[12:21] Student
    In short, he was the one who got bullied.
[12:23] Kotaro
    Huh?
[12:24] Student
    There's always at least one person
    like that in every class, right?
[12:28] Student
    But he's held onto those
    old encounters forever.
[12:31] Student
    How can he be Shadow Knife?!
[12:33] Student
    Pretending he's a damn hero!
[12:34] Kotaro
    H-Hey...
[12:36] Kotaro
    Did you bully him back in the real world?
[12:39] Song
    Born into an imperfect life,
[12:40] Student
    I wouldn't say bullied.
[12:42] Student
    I just teased him on occasion!
[12:44] Kotaro
    In other words,
[12:44] Song
    where divine punishment awaits,
[12:45] Kotaro
    you've been forcing those who
    bullied you in the real world
[12:48] Song
    I've cast aside my pathetic self.
[12:49] ---
    to regain their memories and experience
    the same torment they put you through?
[12:52] Shadow Knife
    The weak can be saved only by punishing evil.
[12:52] Song
    Now pay the price for staining me red.
[12:56] Shadow Knife
    That's the truth I've learned first hand.
[12:59] Student
    Shut up, Yamada!
[12:59] Song
    I'll take those ugly, violent weekends
[13:00] Student
    You're too persistent,
    following us all the way here!
[13:03] Kotaro
    Even if you all thought
    you were just teasing him,
[13:05] Song
    and erase them from here completely.
[13:06] Kotaro
    it's hell for the one
    on the receiving end.
[13:09] Student
    Wh-What?
[13:11] Student
    Besides, that's way past
    the statute of limitations!
[13:14] Kotaro
    There is no statute of
    limitations on mental trauma!
[13:14] Song
    If everything I look up to in this world
[13:18] Song
    can be saved right now with God's power,
[13:19] Student
    Huh?!
[13:20] Student
    I don't get you at all!
[13:23] Shadow Knife
    Since you spoke of how it feels to be
    bullied, then you should understand.
[13:23] Song
    then let me fill that role myself.
[13:27] Song
    Now let's bring the hammer
    of justice down here.
[13:30] Shadow Knife
    The actions I take here
    are the path of justice.
[13:34] Kotaro
    Hold on.
[13:36] Kotaro
    That doesn't just mean you
    can torment them back.
[13:38] Shadow Knifes
    Crimes should be met with
    fitting punishments. Right?
[13:42] Song
    The sins in that place without a breeze...
[13:43] Shadow Knife
    Those who contributed to bullying...
[13:45] Shadow Knife
    Those who watched and pretended
    it wasn't happening...
[13:46] Song
    the sins of those jet black egotists...
[13:48] Shadow Knife
    They all...
[13:50] Shadow Knife
    If you help them, then they'll
    just do the same thing again!
[13:50] Song
    Know those sins cannot be forgiven.
[13:53] Kotaro
    No, I'm saving those in trouble.
[13:55] Song
    Now pay the price for staining me black.
[13:57] Shadow Knife
    Did you truly believe that
    what you were doing was just?
[14:01] Song
    Allow me to secretly show you,
[14:02] Shadow Knife
    You aided evil, which means...
[14:07] Shadow Knife
    You are evil as well.
[14:08] Song
    this blade that follows karma.
[14:09] Shadow Knife
    Your shallow justice is hypocrisy!
[14:13] Shadow Knife
    Self-deceit!
[14:21] Aria
    Kotaro!
[14:22] Mifue
    Kotaro-sempai!
[14:25] Shadow Knife
    Now, that's enough time
    spent playing friends.
[14:31] Shadow Knife
    Regret your decision when you're in hell.
[14:36] Wicked
    I-I can't hold back anymore!
[14:42] Shadow Knife
    Wicked?!
[14:44] Shadow Knife
    Why now?!
SIGN    Even if something has already happened, you can still choose what you do.
[14:59] Kotono
    Is everyone all right?
[15:02] Mifue
    Yes, somehow.
[15:04] Aria
    Kotaro!
[15:12] Kotaro
    Shadow Knife!
[15:15] Shadow Knife
    I... I am Shadow Knife, defender of justice.
[15:18] Shadow Knife
    I won't...
[15:20] Shadow Knife
    I won't...
[15:22] Kotaro
    Grab my hand! Hurry!
[15:25] Shadow Knife
    I punished evil.
[15:26] Shadow Knife
    I inflicted many times more
    suffering than I received.
[15:31] Kotaro
    Shadow Knife!
[15:32] Shadow Knife
    They, too...
[15:34] Shadow Knife
    had big bodies like you and
    acted all proud as they...
[15:38] Kotaro
    No! I...
[15:40] Shadow Knife
    No...
[15:42] Shadow Knife
    Why is this happening to me?
[15:44] Kotaro
    Yamada!
[15:46] Shadow Knife
    It's just the same in the end.
[15:49] Shadow Knife
    If those in the real world are shit,
    then so are the ones in here.
[15:55] Shadow Knife
    Help... me...
[16:20] Kotono
    Stop that already.
[16:27] Naruko
    He's not dead, right?
[16:29] Naruko
    You're not able to die here in Mobius, right?
[16:32] Aria
    I can't sense him anymore.
[16:35] Suzuna
    B-But he's okay in the real world, right?
[16:39] Suzuna
    His real body wouldn't die, right?
[16:42] Aria
    If you lose your life here in Mobius,
[16:45] Aria
    then the real version goes as well...
[16:49] Mifue
    No way...
[16:51] Suzuna
    You mean...
[16:53] Suzuna
    It's possible that we might have died, too?!
[16:56] Naruko
    Huh?! I never heard anything about this!
[16:59] Kotono
    Aria, did you know?
[17:01] Kotono
    That Mobius was such a dangerous place?
[17:06] Aria
    Well...
[17:15] Shogo
    Ichika...
[17:18] Thorn
    Why are you so afraid?
[17:21] Shogo
    You!
[17:23] Thorn
    You haven't changed, not since long ago.
[17:26] Thorn
    You were always, yes...
[17:28] Shogo
    Ichika, not again!
[17:32] Thorn
    What a pathetic man.
[17:52] Kotaro
    What is this?
[17:56] Kotaro
    There's no one here.
[18:04] Mifue
    I thought we were going
    to be able to return home.
[18:06] Aria
    You were, but...
[18:09] Kensuke
    Without μ, this door won't
    lead to the real world, right?
[18:14] Naruko
    Then, you think those guys knew
    we were coming today?
[18:18] Suzuna
    I get that feeling, too.
[18:21] Kotaro
    Which means there's someone
    who ratted us out to them.
[18:25] Kotaro
    Was it you, Kensuke?!
[18:27] Kensuke
    I saw that coming.
[18:28] Kotaro
    You're the only one possible!
[18:30] Kotono
    Stop that, Kotaro!
[18:32] Mifue
    But...
[18:33] Mifue
    It's true that someone among us had
    to share that information, right?
[18:40] Thorn
    Even after I told you not to.
[18:42] Thorn
    Wicked, you're a hopeless child.
[18:46] Thorn
    But now we can settle everything.
[18:52] Thorn
    They're unable to trust each other anymore.
[18:58] Mifue
    Well, I'm leaving.
[19:01] Naruko
    Me, too.
[19:02] Kotono
    Where did the president go?
[19:05] Kotaro
    I don't know.
[19:06] Kotaro
    Maybe he went home ahead of us.
SIGN    Messages
SIGN    You have a new message.
[20:13] Kotaro
    What the heck?
[20:16] Kotaro
    Naruko called us out,
    and she's still not here?
[20:18] Suzuna
    What do you think this is about?
[20:21] Kotono
    Regardless, it's awfully sudden.
[20:23] Kotono
    I can't believe μ would approach us.
[20:26] Kotono
    Shogo, what's going on here?
[20:29] Shogo
    Why are you asking me?
[20:31] Kotono
    You were the one who called us here, right?
[20:33] Kotono
    Saying you got a message from μ...
[20:35] Shogo
    Me? No, I heard from Kensuke.
[20:38] Kensuke
    Huh? Me?
[20:39] Kotaro
    Huh? I got a message that we
    were having another hot pot.
[20:43] Naruko
    Sorry!
[20:44] Naruko
    I'm late!
[20:47] Kotaro
    Hey, Naruko! Are you the one behind this?
[20:50] Naruko
    What?
[20:51] Kotaro
    Sending fake messages to everyone.
[20:53] Naruko
    What?!
[20:54] Izuru
    It's more like she also received
    a message from someone else.
[21:00] Mifue
    What's this?
[21:02] Mifue
    I never sent anything like this.
[21:03] Suzuna
    Me neither.
[21:05] Kotono
    So everyone's been summoned here
    by different fake messages?
[21:08] Izuru
    Who on earth would do this?
[21:13] Mifue
    I'm going home.
[21:19] Mifue
    Huh? What?
[21:21] Mifue
    It won't open.
[21:27] Kotaro
    Damn!
[21:28] Kotaro
    It won't budge!
[21:29] Kotono
    We've been locked in here?
[21:32] Kensuke
    We've fallen for their trap.
[21:34] Kotaro
