[00:03] ---
    Ryota Mitarai!
[00:06] ---
    Hey, what talent do you have?
[00:11] ---
    I'm the Super High School-Level Animator...
[00:15] ---
    Huh? That's odd.
[00:18] ---
    But I'm not into any stupid anime...
[00:23] ---
    "Stupid anime"...
[00:25] ---
    What?
[00:26] ---
    Anime is an important part of our culture!
[00:29] ---
    Th-There it is!
[00:31] ---
    This otaku's red-faced because
    I insulted his anime!
[00:34] ---
    Once you see mine, you won't
    talk like that anymore!
[00:38] ---
    Okay, then...
[00:41] ---
    Show it to me.
[00:47] ---
    "The Old Man's House: Lapeta"
[00:57] ---
    Um...
[00:59] ---
    What do you think?
[01:01] ---
    It's still incomplete, and
    more than half is line art.
[01:07] ---
    Th-This thing is going to dominate!
[01:10] ---
    Now that I've seen this,
[01:12] ---
    I won't ever be satisfied by other stuff!
[01:15] ---
    What was the point of all
    that anime I watched?
[01:19] ---
    We don't need other anime anymore.
[01:21] ---
    Gotta smash these discs!
[01:22] ---
    "*This is her personal opinion."
[01:25] ---
    My collection...
[01:31] ---
    What? What? What?
[01:33] ---
    This flat-chested deviant was
    moved by your anime, too!
[01:39] ---
    Hey, how can it move people like that?
[01:43] ---
    This isn't just any ordinary anime, right?
[01:47] ---
    Right.
[01:48] ---
    My anime influences the viewer's brain.
[01:51] ---
    It can move viewers directly.
[01:53] ---
    It influences the brain?
[01:56] ---
    What techniques does it use?
[01:57] ---
    Oh! Maybe subliminal messaging?
[02:00] ---
    Everything.
[02:01] ---
    Everything?
[02:02] ---
    Subtle changes in coloration
    stimulate the visual cortex.
[02:05] ---
    Induction of eye movement manipulates
    memory of the experience.
[02:10] ---
    Sound controls focus.
[02:13] ---
    I've used every technique I can.
[02:16] ---
    Some are known as "brainwashing techniques."
[02:19] ---
    But they're like gunpowder.
[02:21] ---
    The ones using them determine
    if they're fireworks or bombs.
[02:25] ---
    I want to use my anime to better the world!
[02:31] ---
    "House of the Old: Lapeta"
[02:32] ---
    Shut up!
[02:36] ---
    What a coincidence.
[02:38] ---
    I was thinking I want to make
    the world a better place, too!
[04:35] ---
    What is that?
[04:37] ---
    That's a bear, right?
[04:38] ---
    Isn't it adorable?
[04:40] ---
    Getting close is dangerous!
[04:42] ---
    Fear not.
[04:44] ---
    Grizner will only bare his fangs
[04:46] ---
    against a demon many ranks higher.
[04:48] ---
    Am I a low-ranked demon?
[04:51] ---
    Sonia, you're... Sonia Angel Nevermind!
[04:55] ---
    Again, why is there a bear in the classroom?
[04:59] ---
    This goes here!
[05:01] ---
    Huh? What are you doing?
[05:02] ---
    What do you mean by "what"? It's the
    first anniversary of Komaeda's death.
[05:06] ---
    H-He isn't dead.
[05:07] ---
    He was just suspended, okay?!
[05:09] ---
    I heard they can't get in touch with him.
[05:12] ---
    Man, what is that guy doing?
[05:21] ---
    ♪ In order to meet you. ♪
[05:27] ---
    ♪ That is what I was born for. ♪
[05:34] ---
    Finding this place, right
    after the crash stranded me...
[05:38] ---
    I really am lucky...
[05:43] ---
    Huh? Come to think of it, where's Tsumiki?
[05:47] ---
    If you're looking for Mikan,
    she went somewhere with Ryota.
[05:50] ---
    Those two are pretty close lately, huh?
[05:53] ---
    Right now, maybe they're...
[05:56] ---
    ...doing some "extracurricular
    studies" together...
[05:58] ---
    Here!
[05:59] ---
    Bear?
[06:00] ---
    Somewhere, in the school building,
[06:03] ---
    Tsumiki's doughnut and Mitarai's banana...
[06:11] ---
    ...are about to mee--
[06:14] ---
    Karmic retribution.
[06:16] ---
    Be slain by darkness!
[06:17] ---
    Again, why is there a bear?
[06:23] ---
    M-Mitarai vanished?!
[06:27] ---
    Not so loud.
[06:31] ---
    I think it was about a week ago.
[06:33] ---
    I found a note in his room,
[06:36] ---
    saying he wanted to focus on work.
[06:39] ---
    I haven't heard from him since.
[06:41] ---
    I-I'll go and check his room, too.
[06:46] ---
    He might come back for some of his stuff.
[07:13] ---
    What is it? Did something happen?
[07:16] ---
    More than just "something".
[07:18] ---
    Over twenty staff members have disappeared.
[07:21] ---
    They all vanished, like
    they'd been spirited away.
[07:25] ---
    Th-They disappeared?
[07:26] ---
    And there's more...
[07:28] ---
    The trustees were panicked, wanting us to
    beef up security around you and the kids.
[07:34] ---
    Does it have something
    to do with that project?
[07:37] ---
    No clue.
[07:38] ---
    Thanks to their attempts to hide everything,
[07:41] ---
    I have no idea of the real situation.
[07:43] ---
    But underneath it all, something
    bad is undoubtedly going on.
[07:48] ---
    Stick your head in any further, and you...
[07:51] ---
    I'm prepared for that!
[07:53] ---
    Are you stupid? If anything were to happen...
[07:55] ---
    Didn't I tell you?
[07:58] ---
    "I could die for Munakata."
[08:04] ---
    Don't bring personal feelings into your work.
[08:07] ---
    Don't tell me you're jealous!
[08:11] ---
    Yeah, kinda.
[08:12] ---
    Huh?
[08:13] ---
    Oh, um, er...
[08:15] ---
    Why are you getting all serious? It's a joke.
[08:18] ---
    Huh?
[08:20] ---
    Don't startle me like that! Gosh!
[08:32] ---
    Well?
[08:35] ---
    Have you got wings?
[08:37] ---
    Yeah, no one ever comes around,
    and all the best equipment's here.
[08:41] ---
    Thanks to you, I'm nice and comfortable.
[08:43] ---
    I'll bet!
[08:44] ---
    I got this facility directly
    from one of the trustees.
[08:49] ---
    Of course you'd like it!
[08:52] ---
    Oh, more importantly...
[08:54] ---
    We got the rest of your stuff from
    your room, like you asked, but...
[08:59] ---
    Do you know this girl?
[09:02] ---
    Huh?!
[09:05] ---
    Tsumiki?
[09:06] ---
    Oh, what?
[09:08] ---
    You know her, after all?
[09:10] ---
    Mitarai?
[09:14] ---
    Y-You're all right!
[09:17] ---
    Y-Yeah.
[09:18] ---
    I was worried!
[09:20] ---
    What did they do to you?
[09:23] ---
    Uh, I've been making anime here.
[09:30] ---
    I'm not good with these situations.
[09:34] ---
    I'm glad you could see each other.
[09:36] ---
    Um, who are you?
[09:39] ---
    One of Mitarai's anime friends.
[09:42] ---
    Okay!
[09:43] ---
    To celebrate your touching reunion,
    let's all watch Mitarai's anime!
[09:48] ---
    We're going to reclaim our lost youths!
[09:58] ---
    So moving!
[10:10] ---
    This time, Junko's using her super analysis.
[10:14] ---
    She can analyze all this
    information in an instant.
[10:18] ---
    This is Junko's true talent!
[10:20] ---
    Sis, your breath smells.
[10:22] ---
    Huh?
[10:25] ---
    I get it...
[10:26] ---
    Hey, what time is it?
[10:28] ---
    Uh, 6:50...
[10:30] ---
    Whoops! It's so late already?
[10:33] ---
    Seriously, your breath stinks.
    Do you want to kill us?
[10:37] ---
    Okay, Mitarai,
[10:38] ---
    you can use this as a
    mouse pad or a hug pillow.
[10:42] ---
    Whatever you like!
[10:43] ---
    Later.
[10:43] ---
    Huh?
[10:58] ---
    Kamukura!
[11:01] ---
    Let's go on a date.
[11:21] ---
    What are you trying to say is here?
[11:24] ---
    Well, should I say it's
    my most precious thing?
[11:29] ---
    I'd really like you to see it, too...
[11:33] ---
    I've been so busy preparing it, I
    haven't been able to sleep much.
[11:38] ---
    Wait...
[11:39] ---
    What am I saying?
[11:40] ---
    It's like I'm trying to
    make you feel indebted.
[11:44] ---
    This is where I'll show
    you the wonder of despair!
[12:10] ---
    Hey, you guys!
[12:12] ---
    Were you threatening us by
    sending us those things?!
[12:15] ---
    W-Was that video real?
[12:18] ---
    I can't believe we're doing this so late.
[12:21] ---
    Wh-Why do we have to?
[12:22] ---
    Yeah.
[12:23] ---
    Student council members, we shall
    now have you kill one another.
[12:29] ---
    Huh?
[12:30] ---
    What are you saying? Are
    you off in the head?!
[12:34] ---
    Don't let her get to you.
[12:35] ---
    If we, the student council, panic here,
[12:37] ---
    we'll play into their--
[12:48] ---
    You may choose between two options.
[12:51] ---
    Kill each other, as I asked.
[12:54] ---
    Or be killed by me.
[12:57] ---
    Hi! I'm the lovely Junko Enoshima!
[13:01] ---
    I brought something nice
    for you indecisive people.
[13:06] ---
    Th-Those are...
[13:07] ---
    What you guys need most right now!
[13:11] ---
    And also...
[13:13] ---
    Money, family, secrets, grudges, and more.
[13:18] ---
    Super-heavy stuff, in more ways than one.
[13:21] ---
    A mass of motivation for that extra push.
[13:24] ---
    What should I do with these?
[13:38] ---
    Wh-What is this?
[13:42] ---
    Calm down!
[13:44] ---
    Killing each other would be absurd!
[13:46] ---
    We're the Hope's Peak High
    School Student Council!
[13:49] ---
    He's right...

[20:03] ---
    Huh?
[20:04] ---
    Make sure the students don't notice.
[20:07] ---
    We aren't through talking!
[20:10] ---
    Damn!
[20:12] ---
    So, they've done as we expected?
[20:14] ---
    The higher-ups plan to
    sweep this under the rug!
[20:19] ---
    But if you're thinking about the school,
[20:22] ---
    that's the best thing to do.
[20:24] ---
    Still...
[20:26] ---
    The Kamukura Project itself
    was already inhumane enough.
[20:31] ---
    If this incident were to become public,
[20:34] ---
    Hope's Peak High School would be finished.
[20:37] ---
    A cover-up is the only way
    for this school to continue.
[20:42] ---
    Even so, I...
[20:44] ---
    I have already retired.
[20:46] ---
    I will do everything I can.
[20:50] ---
    But I leave the rest for you,
    as principal, to decide.
[20:55] ---
    What is all this for?
[20:59] ---
    Try to calm down.
[21:03] ---
    Level-headedness has always
    been one of your strengths.
[21:14] ---
    Hey, if anything happens to me,
[21:17] ---
    look after my daughter.
[21:22] ---
    Oh, fine... I'll marry her for you.
[21:27] ---
    I'd never give her to you.
[21:42] ---
    I'll blow the whistle on the rotten
    state of Hope's Peak High School.
[21:47] ---
    To, who else? The victims themselves!
[21:55] ---
    "Mail Sent"
[21:56] ---
    "Mail Received" "Ring Ring"
[21:58] ---
    "Hope's Peak High School is secretly
    performing human experiments.
[22:03] ---
    They are funded by the tuition
    of the Reserve Course students.
[22:08] ---
    The Reserve Course was created
    to raise those funds.
[22:13] ---
    This alone would be unforgivable,
[22:16] ---
    but the school's rot does not stop there.
[22:20] ---
    Tonight, in the old school building,
    a mass murder took place.
[22:24] ---
    The victims, the student council's thirteen
    members, symbolized Hope's Peak High School.
[22:30] ---
    The culprit was the subject
    of the human experiments.
[22:34] ---
    The school has decided to cover this up.
[22:37] ---
    Purely out of self-preservation.
[22:40] ---
    And to hide the failure of their experiments.
[22:43] ---
    Your tuition was wasted on these
    inexplicable human experiments.
[22:47] ---
    And due to them, thirteen
    precious lives were lost.
[22:52] ---
    You have, with no reason to foresee
    it, been made accomplices to murder."
[22:59] ---
    Now, the parade begins.
[23:04] ---
    Some school of hope this is!
[23:06] ---
    Our money doesn't grow on trees!
[23:09] ---
    This is a scam!
[23:16] ---
    By the way, what's with all that?
[23:21] ---
    "I am helping Mitarai.
    Don't worry. --Tsumiki"
[23:21] ---
    Tsumiki, too.
