[00:00] ---
    I noticed the phenomenon
    from the moment I started Darwin's Game.

[00:09] ---
    What's wrong, Rein?
[00:11] ---
    Nothing, I just got a notification from Mio.
[00:14] ---
    Let's see, "Darwin's Game."
[00:22] ---
    Pierre-Simon Laplace, the 18th-century
    mathematician, spoke about it in an essay.
[00:30] ---
    Rein?
[00:34] ---
    If there were an intellect that knew the location
    and momentum of all matter at any time...

[00:41] ---
    and possessed the ability
    to analyze all of that information...

[01:00] ---
    To that intellect...
[01:04] ---
    W-Wait!
[01:05] ---
    What?
[01:08] ---
    Nothing would be uncertain.
[01:12] ---
    And the future, just like the past,
[01:15] ---
    would be present before its eyes.
SIGN    EPISODE 04 FIREWORKS
[03:00] ---
    Two are coming.
    Contact as soon as 30 seconds.
[03:04] ---
    Got it.
[03:10] ---
    They slipped away again?
[03:12] ---
    Strange...
[03:13] ---
    With the rings, they can find my soldiers' locations,
    but they're still evading them so easily.
[03:20] ---
    Now they're on the 29th floor?
[03:23] ---
    Are they predicting my instructions?
[03:29] ---
    If possible, I'd like to have
    the soldiers ditch their rings,
[03:33] ---
    but an order that contradicts their desires
    could break my hold over them.
[03:39] ---
    Only one thing to do.
    Scattering my troops is risky, but...
[03:44] ---
    I'll station a soldier in two stairwells,
[03:48] ---
    and have the other two close in
    from the east and west.
[03:51] ---
    That'll let me clear each floor.
[03:54] ---
    It doesn't matter if any of my soldiers get picked off,
    since they're all replaceable.
[04:01] ---
    If one of them does get killed,
    I'll know where my prey are!
[04:07] ---
    Move out! Door-to-door operation!
[04:25] ---
    It's okay. They're gone.
[04:29] ---
    Looks like he hasn't figured out that we could be
    in one of the auto-locked guest rooms.
[04:34] ---
    We made it over the first hurdle.
[04:37] ---
    Still, using a pillow to block the door frame
    of the room you first teleported to...
[04:42] ---
    Your quick thinking saved us, Rein.
[04:44] ---
    If your specialty is evasion, prudence is a must.
[04:48] ---
    Locked rooms can come in handy.
[04:51] ---
    But our opponent will probably catch on
    to the trick any minute now.
[04:56] ---
    It may be annoying asking again,
    but are we really doing this?
[04:59] ---
    At an estimated 40% chance of success,
    it's a dangerous gamble.
[05:03] ---
    And even if we succeed,
    the odds of our survival are less than 50%.
[05:08] ---
    In other words,
    there's an 80% chance we'll die.
[05:11] ---
    That's right...
[05:14] ---
    As long as we're prepared.
[05:18] ---
    Where did they disappear to?
[05:20] ---
    There's nowhere to hide in the hallways.
[05:23] ---
    And there's no sign of
    any rooms being broken into.
[05:26] ---
    All of the room keys are on the first floor.
[05:29] ---
    They were on the upper floors,
    so there's no way they could've gotten a key.
[05:33] ---
    None of the doors show signs of damage,
    they can't be hiding in a room.
[05:37] ---
    No, wait.
[05:39] ---
    Is that a dangerous hunch?
[05:41] ---
    It's possible they got a key from somewhere
    or used some kind of Sigil.
[05:47] ---
    Let's suppose for a moment
    those two are hiding in one of the rooms.
[05:51] ---
    In that scenario, one reason they were
    meticulous about destroying the cameras...
[05:56] ---
    ...is they didn't want me to see
    which room they were hiding in.
[06:00] ---
    But going by which cameras were destroyed,
    and the place they disappeared...
[06:07] ---
    The 29th floor.
[06:09] ---
    It's highly likely they're hiding out in room 2907!
[06:13] ---
    This is checkmate, boy!
[06:22] ---
    No, there are signs that they were in the room.
[06:25] ---
    They must be hiding somewhere in there...
[06:32] ---
    What?!
[06:34] ---
    An explosion? From where?
[06:37] ---
    They mean to use explosives
    to break through the barricade on the 25th floor?
[06:41] ---
    But now I know where you are!
[06:44] ---
    As expected, one explosion wasn't enough?
[06:47] ---
    But we don't have time to try another one.
[06:52] ---
    The enemy is on the 26th floor!
    The eastern barricade!
[07:09] ---
    This stungun is actually pretty useful!
[07:11] ---
    Well, the explosive failed,
    but everything is within expected parameters!
[07:15] ---
    It's the next part that's do or die!
[07:18] ---
    I hope it'll work...
[07:20] ---
    You're the one who suggested it.
[07:22] ---
    I'd say there's a good shot.
[07:25] ---
    It's just that no one else has thought to try it.
[07:25] ---
    PURCHASE
[07:30] ---
    And here we go.
[07:32] ---
    It never crossed my mind that we could
    use the Gacha shop in the middle of D-Game.
[07:37] ---
    There's never time to try it
    during one-on-one battles.
[07:40] ---
    Now we're ready.
    We just have to divvy up the duties.
[07:44] ---
    I have Laplace,
    so I'm best suited to use the explosives.
[07:48] ---
    Laplace?
[07:49] ---
    Yes. It's the Sigil I got from D-Game.
[07:53] ---
    Universal Function. It looks like this.
[07:56] ---
    Nothing like that showed up on my screen.
[08:00] ---
    Did you come up with that name yourself?
[08:02] ---
    That's the part that bothers you?
[08:05] ---
    The D-Game system decided on my game name.
[08:08] ---
    Or at least, the D-Game creator did.
[08:12] ---
    Have you heard the of "Laplace's demon"?
[08:16] ---
    No...
[08:17] ---
    In the 18th century, before the field
    of quantum mechanics was established,
[08:21] ---
    a scientist named Laplace came up with
    a demon, or rather a concept.
[08:26] ---
    Think of a demon that knows the mass
    and momentum of every atom in the world
[08:31] ---
    and possesses an infinite calculating ability.
[08:33] ---
    What, like a supercomputer demon?
[08:38] ---
    Exactly.
[08:39] ---
    I'm sure D-Game's creator thought of my Sigil
    as being similar to that demon's power.
[08:52] ---
    All four of them are following me as planned,
    but now it's a test of stamina!
[09:13] ---
    I should have done...
[09:15] ---
    more training runs...
    to prepare for a situation like this!
[09:20] ---
    They've caught up!
    Ten seconds earlier than I anticipated!
[09:26] ---
    They've failed to hit her again?
[09:28] ---
    Are these soldiers less proficient than I thought?
[09:34] ---
    No, that's not it.
[09:36] ---
    Don't tell me...
[09:39] ---
    ...she's dodging the bullets?!
[09:42] ---
    Laplace!
[09:47] ---
    Due to poor formation,
    they've got dead space to their right.
[09:50] ---
    Two seconds before their next volley,
    one second before that...
[09:52] ---
    I fire into their blind spot!
[09:56] ---
    I didn't realize the girl was this tough!
[09:58] ---
    And there's something else that bothers me.
[10:01] ---
    Where's that boy?
[10:03] ---
    Did he send the girl off to fight alone
    while he cowers elsewhere?
[10:08] ---
    If so, then I've misjudged him...
[10:11] ---
    But those eyes...
    Are they the eyes of a coward?
[10:17] ---
    No sign of him near the barricades or elevators.
    Where the hell is he?!
[10:21] ---
    What?!
[10:27] ---
    He already made it to the first floor?
[10:30] ---
    How did he get down here?
[10:34] ---
    Did he climb down the outer wall
    to bypass the barricade on the 25th floor?
[10:38] ---
    I didn't mean to underestimate him,
    but he was one step ahead of me!
[10:42] ---
    I failed to anticipate his goal.
[10:45] ---
    No, that's not it.
[10:47] ---
    I was always that boy's target.
    What I failed to realize...
[10:53] ---
    ...was his determination!
[10:58] ---
    The Florist was watching us
    with surveillance cameras.

[11:01] ---
    If this place has a security office,
    it's probably down that hall.

[11:05] ---
    Blocked by another plant barricade...
[11:08] ---
    Guess I'll have to blow this one up, too...
[11:10] ---
    But I'm totally exhausted.
[11:14] ---
    Is it from the repeated use of my Sigil?
[11:18] ---
    But I didn't have time to
    use the shop again in the danger zone.

[11:21] ---
    There's no need to use that, boy.
[11:32] ---
    You're the Florist?
[11:33] ---
    I've never introduced myself as such.
[11:37] ---
    Why don't we talk a bit before we begin, boy?
[11:40] ---
    Talk?
[11:42] ---
    One of us is going to die here.
    Or perhaps both of us.
[11:47] ---
    Which makes this our last chance
    to exchange words.
[11:51] ---
    Tell me, why are you playing D-Game?
[11:55] ---
    Why? I don't have a reason!
    I just got dragged into it!
[12:00] ---
    I need money.
[12:03] ---
    100 or 200 million is equivalent to a person's life.
[12:08] ---
    That's why you kill?!
[12:09] ---
    When someone dies, it helps someone else.
[12:13] ---
    Like right now.
[12:15] ---
    So, which of us is going to die?
[12:19] ---
    Shut up, dumbass!
    You don't get to decide what happens!
[12:26] ---
    It's not I who decided!
[12:28] ---
    It's the law of the jungle!
[12:33] ---
    How the hell is he so powerful?
[12:35] ---
    I figured a "plant master"
    would be a weakling!

[12:37] ---
    Have you heard of the ancient lotus seeds
    that were found in ruins and then bloomed?
[12:44] ---
    Or haven't you ever seen weeds
    breaking through concrete so they can grow?
[12:48] ---
    Plants are much tougher than animals!
[12:52] ---
    And I've been given their power!
[12:57] ---
    Then I don't have to hold back, right?
[13:05] ---
    No way!
    The bullets are bouncing off!

[13:10] ---
    You messed up, boy!
[13:12] ---
    He can do that?
[13:14] ---
    This is checkmate!
[13:18] ---
    Don't count your chickens!
[13:21] ---
    I see. Your Sigil is indeed a thorn in my side.
[13:25] ---
    It seems you have the power
    to reproduce any weapon you've seen before?
[13:30] ---
    However...
[13:32] ---
    ...it looks like the power isn't limitless!
[13:35] ---
    Dammit! He saw right through me?
[13:39] ---
    I'm dead on my feet with a killer headache.
[13:42] ---
    I can use the Sigil once more, twice at most...
[13:47] ---
    But I didn't expect the Florist
    to be this powerful!

[13:52] ---
    I'd better go back to square one!
[13:58] ---
    I figured you would do that!
[14:03] ---
    Flashbang!
[14:11] ---
    You're a formidable opponent after all.
    But there's no escape from my garden!
[14:42] ---
    You have true fighting spirit.
    That's admirable.
[14:46] ---
    You were a worthy opponent, boy.
[14:48] ---
    But it ends here!
[14:54] ---
    No good. I can barely stand...
[14:58] ---
    Is this really the end of the line?
[15:01] ---
    Well, I probably lost the moment
    my trump card bullets bounced off his armor.

[15:06] ---
    I've got nothing else.
[15:10] ---
    ARE YOU SURE?
[15:13] ---
    You again?
[15:15] ---
    ARE YOU SURE?
[15:18] ---
    The poor loser within...
[15:21] ---
    It seems you have the power
    to reproduce any weapon you've seen before?

[15:24] ---
    Even if you're not told what it is,
    you should be able to use your Sigil naturally.

[15:29] ---
    The D-Game system decided on my game name.
[15:32] ---
    Or at least the D-Game creator...
[15:36] ---
    Power...
[15:38] ---
    My power...
[15:40] ---
    The power to reproduce weapons that I know?
[15:44] ---
    Are you sure?
[15:48] ---
    What's that sound?
[15:51] ---
    I don't know what it is,
    but it's soothing, somehow.

[15:56] ---
    The sound of a hammer.
[15:58] ---
    A hammer?
[16:01] ---
    A blacksmith's hammer as it forges steel.
[16:13] ---
    Why have you come here?
[16:19] ---
    There's still something
    you have to do, isn't there?
[16:22] ---
    Something I have to do?
[16:24] ---
    What are you doing?
[16:28] ---
    For all this time, I've been forging swords.
[16:33] ---
    All this time?
[16:34] ---
    It's been a long time.
[16:37] ---
    This artillery you made, it's not bad work.
[16:42] ---
    It should hold up in battle.
[16:45] ---
    Get outta here.
[16:47] ---
    One second on the battlefield
    is equal to a brick of gold.
[16:51] ---
    But this won't do it.
[16:53] ---
    I can't penetrate his armor with this.
[16:56] ---
    On top of that, he can make a shield.
[17:00] ---
    Shield and armor that surpass firepower like this?
[17:03] ---
    They must be well made.
[17:05] ---
    Don't laugh! I'm desperate here!
[17:09] ---
    It seems our history of spears and shields
    will never end.
[17:14] ---
    Your opponent saw that armor wasn't enough,
    so he prepared a shield, right?
[17:19] ---
    So one more push.
[17:21] ---
    You should already know all this.
[17:24] ---
    The structure of this gun,
    how it was made, and how to use it.
[17:30] ---
    That's right. I do know.
[17:33] ---
    I can produce it and use it.
[17:36] ---
    Like I could from the moment I was born...
[17:42] ---
    He went to the trouble of using a shield.
[17:45] ---
    That proves he sensed a threat from my shooting.
[17:49] ---
    A little more...
    If I could increase its power a little more...

[17:54] ---
    I've got it!
[17:55] ---
    For this situation, perhaps it would be
    worth sacrificing the life span of the gun.
[18:01] ---
    Who are you?
[18:03] ---
    How do you know so much about me?
[18:05] ---
    Me? I'm...
[18:13] ---
    I'll at least finish you off with one strike,
    so you won't suffer.
[18:18] ---
    Screw you...
[18:20] ---
    What was that?
[18:23] ---
    It would have been an easier death
    if you just stayed down.
[18:26] ---
    Screw you!
[18:27] ---
    I'm sick of your selfish logic!
    Shut up already!
[18:36] ---
    That's pointless!
    Yelling won't change the result!
[18:40] ---
    What?!
[18:42] ---
    Each bullet is...
[18:45] ---
    ...heavy!
[18:46] ---
    In exchange for shortening the gun's life span,
    I increased the internal pressure.

[18:50] ---
    And increased the amount
    of gunpowder by 10%!

[18:52] ---
    If those bullets go one millimeter deeper...
[18:57] ---
    My shield will fall apart at this rate!
[18:59] ---
    Should I retreat?
[19:01] ---
    No!
[19:02] ---
    This is the critical moment!
[19:07] ---
    I win, boy!
[19:15] ---
    Idiot.
[19:17] ---
    You call being knocked on your ass a win?
[19:23] ---
    Was I hallucinating?
[19:27] ---
    I thought I hit you.
[19:31] ---
    Well fought, boy.
[19:34] ---
    Finish me off with one shot, if you please.
[19:38] ---
    I'm sorry, Suzune.
[19:40] ---
    Daddy lost.
[19:44] ---
    You're a selfish old man to the end.
[19:46] ---
    Aren't you afraid to die?
[19:48] ---
    I've always had a bad heart.
[19:52] ---
    I don't have that long to live.
[19:54] ---
    I see.
[19:56] ---
    But you dying here doesn't do me any good.
[19:59] ---
    Put it off a while and die of a disease.
[20:02] ---
    What?
[20:03] ---
    I have a feeling
    this Treasure Hunt event is going to...
[20:08] ---
    Hey, boy!
[20:10] ---
    Please don't try anything funny.
[20:13] ---
    I've got a bead on your head.
[20:17] ---
    My Sigil's maxed out for a while.
[20:20] ---
    Just like this boy's.
[20:22] ---
    Ah, shit. I just blacked out for a second.
[20:26] ---
    You should get some rest, Kaname.
[20:28] ---
    By the way, you said your Sigil was maxed out,
    but rest would probably get it back to normal.
[20:35] ---
    Yes, if given the chance.
[20:37] ---
    Good to hear. Then I'll offer you a deal, Florist.
[20:41] ---
    Or rather, Ichiro Hiiragi.
[20:44] ---
    A deal?
[20:45] ---
    How much do you know about this event, Mr. Hiiragi?
[20:50] ---
    For example, how many rings are in this hotel?
[20:54] ---
    There should be 24, but what about it?
[20:57] ---
    Then did you know that Wang,
    the bloodthirsty Eighth Clan leader,
[21:01] ---
    is participating in this event?
[21:05] ---
    The leader of the Eighth Clan?
    That loose cannon?
[21:08] ---
    Are you sure about that?
[21:11] ---
    I'm the information broker they call the Analyst.
[21:14] ---
    Many players who provide me with information
    are participating in this event, too.
[21:20] ---
    I've accumulated information
    from them about the other players.
[21:25] ---
    The first stage of this event
    is about to draw to a close.
[21:28] ---
    Already, the stronger players
    have gathered the majority of rings,
[21:32] ---
    so it's become easy to tell
    where to go to get them.
[21:37] ---
    From here on, it'll be a free-for-all
    between the strongest players.
[21:42] ---
    Meanwhile, we exhausted ourselves here.
[21:45] ---
    When members of the Eighth Clan
    target the rings that are here,
[21:49] ---
    we won't have the energy to stand up to them.
[21:53] ---
    The only way to survive this...
[21:55] ---
    ...is by forming an improvised clan
    to resist the Eighth Clan.
[21:59] ---
    Do we die apart?
    Or survive by working together?
