**[00:00] ---**
you won't be able to save
the two in the basement!
**[00:08] ---**
Hey, Yu, Ayumi. It's been a while.
**[00:16] ---**
Hello.
**[00:19] ---**
Um... who are you?
**[00:22] ---**
He's our big brother.
**[00:25] ---**
There was a reason behind it,
**[00:27] ---**
but I had someone delete
your memories pertaining to me
**[00:29] ---**
Really? Why is that?
**[00:32] ---**
Yeah.. There was a lot going on.
**[00:35] ---**
Seems like it, Big Brother.
**[00:40] ---**
Yu, you finally were fully aware of using
an ability you took via your "plunder".
**[00:46] ---**
That's why I had you come
here with Ayumi.
**[00:49] ---**
In either case, I would have ended
up here... that's convenient.
**[00:53] ---**
What do you mean by that?
**[00:55] ---**
Big Brother, actually...
**[00:58] ---**
So you used my time-leap...
**[01:01] ---**
...that was a job well done.
**[01:03] ---**
So, what's going to happen now?
Can I go back together with you, Big Brother?
**[01:07] ---**
More like the reverse. You can
plunder any ability you want.
**[01:11] ---**
You are the strongest
of all ability wielders.
**[01:13] ---**
And, you even have the
power of time-leap now...
**[01:16] ---**
that is too much of a menace
**[01:18] ---**
What are you trying to say?
**[01:20] ---**
There are syndicates abound
that would try to use your powers.
**[01:24] ---**
I can't let you live life as
you have been until now.
**[01:26] ---**
You have to spend your days here
until those abilities dissipate.
**[01:29] ---**
Here?
**[01:30] ---**
Yeah. You may already know,
**[01:33] ---**
but this is a research facility
for the special abilities we created.
**[01:37] ---**
In other words,
this is the safest place in Japan.
**[01:43] ---**
Come with me.
**[01:50] ---**
Episode 11: Charlotte
**[01:59] ---**
My, my, nice of you to come by.
**[02:03] ---**
That old man is the leader of the
research team, Dr. Tsutsumiuchi.
**[02:07] ---**
*I know...*
**[02:09] ---**
*...he's the one that saved me back then...*
**[02:12] ---**
And this is..?
**[02:13] ---**
This is a research facility that
is creating a vaccine to prevent
**[02:16] ---**
future outbreaks of special abilities.
**[02:18] ---**
Vaccine? Are we all ill?
**[02:21] ---**
Exactly.
**[02:22] ---**
The special abilities are truly a disease.
**[02:25] ---**
So, before particles are spread
all over Earth again,
**[02:28] ---**
we need to vaccinate
every person in the world.
**[02:32] ---**
Particles?
**[02:33] ---**
Have you ever heard of a
long-orbit comet named Charlotte?
**[02:37] ---**
A-Ayu knows about it!
**[02:39] ---**
Oh, you must really like the stars a lot.
**[02:43] ---**
Yes. Star-gazing is my hobby!
**[02:46] ---**
I see.
**[02:47] ---**
The comet Charlotte approaches
Earth in 75-year cycles.
**[02:52] ---**
And when it does, an unknown
particle is showered onto Earth.
**[02:57] ---**
Those who inhale the particles
**[02:59] ---**
generate special powers
**[03:01] ---**
when they are most sensitive.
**[03:03] ---**
The particles that snuck all the
way into the cerebral nerves
**[03:06] ---**
dig up and awaken a sector that
is supposed to stay dormant.
**[03:10] ---**
And that is the reason behind these powers...
**[03:13] ---**
For instance,
**[03:14] ---**
roughly 400 years ago we had an
extremely close encounter,
**[03:17] ---**
and many particles showered down.
**[03:19] ---**
In Europe, some of those that inhaled the
particles became witches with special powers.
**[03:25] ---**
And, the people who feared the
abilities conducted a witch hunt,
**[03:29] ---**
and tens of thousands of ability
wielders were slaughtered.
**[03:33] ---**
That comet grazed the atmosphere
again roughly 12 years ago,
**[03:37] ---**
and young folk started to wield
special powers one after another.
**[03:42] ---**
Yu, he's talking about us.
**[03:45] ---**
So that doesn't happen
again in the future,
**[03:48] ---**
we are making a vaccine.
**[03:50] ---**
Production has already begun in Japan.
**[03:53] ---**
Then, we can rest assured now.
**[03:55] ---**
No, only Japan that I
control is under protection.
**[04:00] ---**
Witch hunts are still happening
all over the world.
**[04:04] ---**
But, that has nothing to do with us...
**[04:06] ---**
This story can't possibly be that easy.
**[04:10] ---**
The ability-wielders overseas have banded up.
**[04:12] ---**
We're in a situation where we don't know
when they will cause terror in the world.
**[04:17] ---**
What about the vaccine?
**[04:18] ---**
We can curb the number of infected that way,
**[04:20] ---**
but it doesn't do anything for the
people who already developed their abilities.
**[04:23] ---**
Then, all you have to do is
make a wonder drug to counter it!
**[04:26] ---**
Otosaka... you are indeed a sharp one,
but I guess your little brother isn't so much.
**[04:33] ---**
It takes a very long time
to create a new drug.
**[04:37] ---**
We don't know what's going to happen next,
but I will make sure to protect you both.
**[04:45] ---**
All right... but at least I'd like Ayumi to
regain her memories about you, Big Brother.
**[04:51] ---**
It's impossible.
**[04:52] ---**
Why? I was able to regain my memories!
**[04:55] ---**
We don't know why you were
the only one that regained memories...
**[04:58] ---**
Was there a large factor somewhere that
caused it, or was it just coincidence?
**[05:02] ---**
In either case, as we stand now,
that's an impossibility.
**[05:05] ---**
That can't be...
That's too sad for Ayumi....
**[05:10] ---**
From today, we can make new
memories as siblings again.
**[05:14] ---**
Ayumi.
**[05:16] ---**
I'm your oldest brother, Shunsuke.
I'm blind, but it's nice to meet you.
**[05:22] ---**
Then, can I call you Big Brother Shun?
**[05:25] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:26] ---**
*She accepted that real quick!*
**[05:30] ---**
You won't be able to see your
school friends for a while,
**[05:33] ---**
but these guys are your friends...
**[05:35] ---**
as well as ability wielders.
**[05:37] ---**
I'm Ayumi Otosaka! Nice to meet you!
**[05:40] ---**
Nice to meet you, too.
**[05:42] ---**
Nice to meet you. Shichino,
why don't you walk through a wall for starters?
**[05:46] ---**
Sure thing... don't petrify yourself
from fear by seeing this!
**[05:51] ---**
Wow, that's amazing!
**[05:54] ---**
The recreation room here is pretty substantial.
There's lots of fun things here.
**[05:59] ---**
What about music? Can I listen to Haro-haro?
**[06:02] ---**
Of course.
**[06:03] ---**
All right!
**[06:05] ---**
I'll be teaching you academics.
**[06:07] ---**
Okay!
**[06:10] ---**
Thank you very much!
**[06:13] ---**
I feel like everyone is keeping
their distance from just ne...
**[06:19] ---**
Wait? Is everyone gone already?
**[06:22] ---**
They call the first one the Bunei Invasion,
and the second one the Koan Invasion.
**[06:26] ---**
I see...
**[06:29] ---**
Do you have a sister complex?
**[06:33] ---**
Well, not... really...
**[06:35] ---**
You're fretting.
**[06:36] ---**
Your big brother took Ayu away from you.
**[06:39] ---**
That's not true...
**[06:42] ---**
Then, can you come
hang out with me a bit?
**[06:45] ---**
I want you to play for me.
**[06:47] ---**
Play?
**[06:58] ---**
*All right... got a good hand.*
**[07:00] ---**
Reach!
**[07:01] ---**
Ron.
**[07:03] ---**
Double value tiles, little three dragons,
half-flush, all triplets, three dora tiles.
**[07:06] ---**
Sanbaiman as dealer, so 36000 points.
**[07:09] ---**
Amazing. This is the first time I've seen
someone lose all points in the first hand.
**[07:12] ---**
You really suck at this.
Are you really Shunsuke's little brother?
**[07:16] ---**
Dammit... let me play one more time!
**[07:18] ---**
No!
**[07:20] ---**
Found one, so I'm leaving the table...
**[07:22] ---**
As always, it's rather sudden.
**[07:24] ---**
Well, since I can't choose to go
look for them it's all too random...
**[07:29] ---**
It would be so much easier if I could
know who wields an ability when...
**[07:35] ---**
What did you just find?
**[07:37] ---**
I'm talking about an ability
wielder, of course.
**[07:40] ---**
*So he didn't have to be
drenched in water for that!*
**[07:44] ---**
Which means, you're headed
to the student council?
**[07:46] ---**
Yeah.
**[07:46] ---**
Can I come along with you?
**[07:48] ---**
Idiot, of course not.
**[07:49] ---**
You're the ability wielder that is the least
able to step outside.
**[07:52] ---**
Do you lack self-awareness?
**[07:54] ---**
I see... that's how it was...
**[07:57] ---**
Tomori... I wonder how she's doing...
**[08:00] ---**
Wait, why am I thinking about her?
**[08:11] ---**
Please head over to Hoshinoumi Academy.
**[08:14] ---**
Furuki, is something the matter?
**[08:16] ---**
No... it's fine.
**[08:28] ---**
Why didn't you turn the corner?
**[08:31] ---**
Furuki?
**[08:32] ---**
I'm sorry, Kumagami!
**[08:34] ---**
I have to take you to a different location!
**[08:38] ---**
My family...
**[08:40] ---**
They're threatening my family...
**[08:43] ---**
So you had family?
**[08:45] ---**
If they found out I had one,
I have to quit the syndicate!
**[08:48] ---**
That is the rule, yes...
**[08:50] ---**
I prided myself in being able to help you
guys as an alum... forgive me.
**[08:59] ---**
Sheesh... looks like this is going
to be a bit troublesome....
**[09:07] ---**
Ishihara Mountain Industry
**[09:08] ---**
Over here. Follow me.
**[09:11] ---**
Sure..
**[09:15] ---**
Hey! I brought him here!
**[09:18] ---**
*Now...*
**[09:27] ---**
Welcome, mighty one.
**[09:28] ---**
"Welcome, mighty one."
**[09:30] ---**
A foreigner? Oh, brother.
**[09:33] ---**
This is enough, right?
Give me back my family!
**[09:35] ---**
Not yet. There is one more
thing we need you to do.
**[09:38] ---**
We'll contact you later. Now leave.
**[09:40] ---**
That's not what you said before!
**[09:42] ---**
You do want to meet your family, right?
**[09:46] ---**
"You do want to meet your family, right?"
**[09:48] ---**
That can't be!
**[09:50] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[09:52] ---**
It's fine. Furuki, you can
just think about your family...
**[09:56] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[09:58] ---**
Make sure he does not die.
**[10:23] ---**
*Where... is this...?*
**[10:26] ---**
*My head feels woozy...*
**[10:30] ---**
*Looks like they injected
a truth serum or something...*
**[10:34] ---**
What are you trying to make me tell you?
**[10:36] ---**
Information about every psychic you are
aware of that you are hiding from us.
**[10:41] ---**
Like I'd tell you...
**[10:51] ---**
My teeth are gonna be all gone...
I'm gonna have dentures at this age?
**[11:14] ---**
I told them anything and
everything, didn't I...
**[11:24] ---**
I'm sorry, Shunsuke...
**[11:40] ---**
Dammit!
**[12:02] ---**
Hello?
**[12:03] ---**
*You are the one who gathered all
the psychics in this country, yes?*
**[12:07] ---**
*This guy isn't Japanese..?*
**[12:09] ---**
If so, what?
**[12:10] ---**
*I had Kumagami tell me who the
strongest psychic in this country was.*
**[12:15] ---**
*Kumagami did? That means he's
the victim of an overseas terrorist...*
**[12:19] ---**
What about Kumagami?
**[12:20] ---**
*His life is not in danger. However,
he has no nails nor teeth now.*
**[12:25] ---**
*What the hell...*
**[12:27] ---**
What do you want?
**[12:29] ---**
*We would like to have Yu Otosaka.*
**[12:31] ---**
That'll never happen!
**[12:32] ---**
*We have kidnapped a psychic
by the name of Nao Tomori.*
**[12:35] ---**
*We would like him in return
for both Tomori and Kumagami.*
**[12:39] ---**
Where at?
**[12:40] ---**
*Furuki will take you there.*
**[12:42] ---**
Furuki will?
**[12:43] ---**
*I would like Yu Otosaka to come by himself.*
**[12:46] ---**
*I have heard about you all
from Furuki and Kumagami.*
**[12:49] ---**
*This operation has been planned
from quite a while back.*
**[12:53] ---**
*If the plans diverge,*
**[12:55] ---**
*we will assume you traveled
to the past to change destinies,*
**[12:58] ---**
*and kill off Furuki's family. See you.*
**[13:04] ---**
*That far...*
**[13:08] ---**
Phone call, Furuki.
**[13:12] ---**
*It's you, Otosaka...*
**[13:14] ---**
Furuki... are you all right?
**[13:17] ---**
*They threatened me... I'm sorry.*
**[13:20] ---**
Just as I thought.
**[13:22] ---**
*How long have they been threatening you?*
**[13:24] ---**
Back around when we were
getting ready to build the academy...
**[13:28] ---**
*This makes it pretty tough...*
**[13:30] ---**
*If I talked, they said
they would kill my family.*
**[13:33] ---**
I thought about suicide... but I couldn't
leave my family behind... so...
**[13:39] ---**
That's why all of this happened!
**[13:41] ---**
It's an error in my judgment.
**[13:43] ---**
There is no need for
you to torment yourself, Furuki.
**[13:46] ---**
I will make sure to rescue your family.
**[13:48] ---**
*I'm really sorry...*
**[13:52] ---**
So they've made it out to Japan as well?
**[13:54] ---**
However, how did they get Kumagami?
**[13:56] ---**
They are threatening Furuki.
**[13:59] ---**
It was my mistake. He had a family,
but I gave tacit consent...
**[14:05] ---**
To think the enemy would
come in from that angle...
**[14:07] ---**
Then, what if you had your little
brother time-leap to before
**[14:09] ---**
Furuki started getting threatened?
**[14:12] ---**
If he was threatened from before
the academy was built...
**[14:15] ---**
I'm not sure if we can follow
the same path or not.
**[14:18] ---**
Which means, there is a possibility that
this entire syndicate may not even exist.
**[14:22] ---**
The risk is just too big.
**[14:24] ---**
Then, how about we have your
little brother rescue Kumagami first?
**[14:27] ---**
If we do that, Furuki's family will be sacrificed...
they can notice such anomalies.
**[14:34] ---**
Then, how about using an ability
wielder other than your little brother—
**[14:37] ---**
They told me Yu needs to go alone.
**[14:39] ---**
If we screw up, everyone caught by them
will fall victim to their hands.
**[14:43] ---**
There's nothing we can do, then...
**[14:45] ---**
Sounds more like we have a better shot
if we let the little brother go in by himself.
**[14:49] ---**
What?
**[14:50] ---**
We're probably against ability wielders,
so he can plunder their abilities.
**[14:53] ---**
Even if he screws up, he can use time-leap
to redo everything from this point in time.
**[14:58] ---**
That way, there won't be any irregularities,
so they won't notice that he time-leaped!
**[15:05] ---**
We have to bet on Yu now, don't we...
**[15:13] ---**
So unbecoming... what a sight...
**[15:22] ---**
Tomori is held hostage?
**[15:24] ---**
Many security guards at
the dorm were put down.
**[15:27] ---**
There is no doubt these are
pros that came from overseas....
**[15:30] ---**
And I'm sure they're armed as well.
**[15:31] ---**
You want me to go to a place
like that... by myself?
**[15:34] ---**
You can do it. It's fine!
**[15:36] ---**
First off, plunder all the abilities
of everyone in the area,
**[15:39] ---**
and make them drop their weapons.
You can do that, right?
**[15:42] ---**
If it's not a hidden enemy...
**[15:44] ---**
The enemy wants you. They
won't do anything that would kill you.
**[15:48] ---**
However, if you get caught, or they put
Nao or Kumagami in harm's way,
**[15:53] ---**
use your time-leap ability to
come back to this point in time!
**[15:57] ---**
We can build a new tactic at that point.
**[15:59] ---**
One more thing, make sure
to never get too excited!
**[16:01] ---**
Your collapse power will trigger,
and your own life will be in danger.
**[16:06] ---**
Got that, Yu?
**[16:09] ---**
What's with this...
**[16:11] ---**
Yu?
**[16:12] ---**
What's with all this! There's
no way I can do something like that!
**[16:17] ---**
This isn't a problem that one
individual can handle on his own!
**[16:20] ---**
I was just someone that got
good grades by unfair means,
**[16:22] ---**
nothing more than a fiend of cheating!
**[16:23] ---**
I'm a despicable guy that
has only thought about himself!
**[16:27] ---**
I am just a greedy human that wanted
everyone to see me in a good light!
**[16:31] ---**
That's all I am... what can I--
**[16:37] ---**
Calm down!
**[16:39] ---**
Listen to my heartbeat.
Concentrate on only that!
**[16:48] ---**
Are you calm now?
**[16:51] ---**
I'm sorry... I was rushing things too much.
**[16:54] ---**
If you feel you're in trouble, time-leap
back to this point in time.
**[16:57] ---**
That's all you need to remember.
**[16:59] ---**
We still have a bit of time left.
Calmly think it over.
**[17:07] ---**
*However... you seem like you'd be
popular from just your looks.*
**[17:10] ---**
**Was there also a need to play the role of
a genius by cheating as much as possible?**
**[17:13] ---**
*That's the real question.**
**[17:15] ---**
It really was a horrible start for us...
**[17:17] ---**
*To do some investigation, of course.*
**[17:19] ---**
*But my dream is to film a ZHIEND music video.*
**[17:22] ---**
*That is why I decided that I'll stick it out with you,
until you have risen back up to normal.*
**[17:28] ---**
It was the same thing with Ayumi...
it's too late to realize something after losing it...
**[17:35] ---**
I will make sure to rescue Tomori.
**[17:38] ---**
I've made up my mind.
**[17:39] ---**
You've accepted your fate?
**[17:41] ---**
Yeah.
**[17:42] ---**
We'll follow you in a bit. You are not alone.
**[17:46] ---**
If something happens, we'll
rescue you right away.
**[17:48] ---**
Yeah...
**[17:52] ---**
So are you Furuki?
**[17:54] ---**
Yeah.
**[17:56] ---**
Get in.
**[17:57] ---**
Ishihara Mountain Industry
**[18:05] ---**
I brought him here!
**[18:07] ---**
*People in the field of vision...*
**[18:09] ---**
*Just these two.*
**[18:11] ---**
*But they're adults... and
not ability wielders.*
**[18:14] ---**
Then, as promised, I will
release your family to you.
**[18:18] ---**
Hey, take this.
**[18:22] ---**
That's the key to the condo.
The location is written on the tag.
**[18:29] ---**
I'm sorry... this was the
only thing I could do...
**[18:36] ---**
*Let's do this...*
**[18:51] ---**
They're not armed..?
**[18:52] ---**
Are you satisfied now?
**[18:55] ---**
Where's Tomori?
**[18:56] ---**
Right below us... both of
them are in the basement.
**[18:59] ---**
Release both of them right away!
**[19:17] ---**
Not good... I must time-leap...
**[19:23] ---**
It's pointless!
**[19:25] ---**
We made you unable to use
psychic powers to travel to the past.
**[19:28] ---**
So it is indeed impossible with one eye.
**[19:33] ---**
If you use your psychic powers of collapse,
you won't be able to save the two in the basement!
**[19:38] ---**
Dammit!
**[19:55] ---**
- Hurry, hurry, hurry!
**[19:55] ---**
- Shit! That wasn't necessary!
**[20:07] ---**
This isn't good! There is a
collapse happening right now!
**[20:10] ---**
He's not using his time-leap?
**[20:12] ---**
Looks it... what should we do?
**[20:22] ---**
Impossible...
**[20:24] ---**
Is this time to be just standing around?
**[20:25] ---**
We have to go save them!
**[20:26] ---**
Y-Yeah...
**[20:30] ---**
How does it look?
**[20:32] ---**
It looks hopeless...
**[20:34] ---**
But we still have to search for them!
**[20:38] ---**
Nao!
**[20:40] ---**
Kumagami! Yu!
**[20:42] ---**
Shunsuke!
**[20:44] ---**
Are those the main culprits?
**[20:46] ---**
Medoki, please.
**[20:48] ---**
Sure.
**[20:51] ---**
Found the little brother!
**[20:54] ---**
He blocked it in the nick
of time with telekinesis...
**[20:57] ---**
It's all right. He's still alive. However...
**[21:00] ---**
They ruined one eye.
**[21:02] ---**
So that's why he couldn't leap...
**[21:05] ---**
Please take him to somewhere safe!
**[21:07] ---**
Sure.
**[21:09] ---**
Don't tell me that you alone were all right
**[21:11] ---**
because of your ability, but the
other two are already dead...
**[21:15] ---**
Where are you... Kumagami... Nao...
**[21:18] ---**
Found them! Both of them are here!
**[21:25] ---**
Over here!
**[21:28] ---**
Kumagami!
**[21:30] ---**
Kumagami, where are you?
Answer me, Kumagami!
**[21:33] ---**
Kuma—
**[21:42] ---**
Kumagami?
**[21:44] ---**
Is that you... Shunsuke?
**[21:49] ---**
This is enough... right?
**[21:51] ---**
Kumagami! You can't!
**[21:54] ---**
I won't allow it! You have to
continue to be at my side!
**[21:58] ---**
That is asking for the impossible...
**[22:02] ---**
You can't! I won't allow it!
**[22:04] ---**
Kumagami, don't go off on
your own! Don't go away!
**[22:09] ---**
Shunsuke...
**[22:11] ---**
So, the nickname "Pooh"...
was a lie after all...?
**[22:19] ---**
Kumagami?
**[22:21] ---**
Kumagami...
**[22:24] ---**
KUMAGAMI!
