**[00:04] Mio**
I had never even dreamed
of the sight I saw that day.
**[00:10] Mio**
Even now, after so, so long,
**[00:14] Mio**
my memory of it hasn't faded in the slightest.
**[00:18] Mio**
But how I've longed to see him,
**[00:21] Mio**
even if it were only in a dream...
**[00:27] Mio**
I miss him.
**[00:29] Mio**
I want to see him one more time...
**[00:44] CloneA**
Am I...
**[00:45] CloneB**
All right?
**[00:47] Kurumi**
Yes.
**[00:48] Kurumi**
More importantly, is Ms. Murasame...
**[00:51] Kurumi**
No, is Phantom nearby?
**[00:54] CloneC**
She's nowhere in the vicinity.
**[00:56] CloneA**
It would seem she's disappeared.
**[00:59] Kurumi**
That was too easy.
**[01:02] Kurumi**
Though a Spirit that's divided its power
too greatly wouldn't amount to much more.
**[01:07] Kurumi**
However, defeating Phantom doesn't
mean I've achieved my goal.
**[01:14] CloneB**
Yes, yes. Of course not.
**[01:18] CloneC**
Our goal isn't the present fragmented fool.
**[01:22] CloneC**
It's the monster of the past
at its full power.
**[01:26] CloneA**
Still, why would Phantom divide
her power to create more Spirits?
**[01:34] CloneA**
She must have known that would
inevitably spell her own decline.
**[01:39] Kotori**
So you're saying Kurumi
has saved you over 204 times?
**[01:44] Shido**
Yeah.
**[01:45] Shido**
Every time I got killed,
**[01:47] Shido**
she rewound time and stopped DEM's attack.
**[01:51] Shido**
Kurumi's goal is to go back in time
and defeat the Spirit of Origin
**[01:55] Shido**
in order to save her best friend.
**[01:58] Shido**
She also means to prevent all tragedy
caused by Spirits before it ever happens.
**[02:04] Shido**
And she needs my Spirit power to do that.
**[02:09] Tohka**
I can't believe that's what was
going on with Kurumi...
**[02:13] Yoshino**
I'm surprised.
**[02:16] Miku**
So even the Sephirah within each of us
**[02:19] Miku**
were refined at the cost of
countless human lives...
**[02:24] Miku**
I have mixed feelings about that.
**[02:28] Kotori**
Whatever Kurumi's reasons may be,
**[02:31] Kotori**
we can't afford to hand over
Shido's Spirit power.
**[02:34] Kotori**
That comes above all else.
**[02:35] Kotori**
For one thing,
**[02:37] Kotori**
we don't have any guarantee that Kurumi
can even defeat this Spirit of Origin.
**[02:41] Mana**
Her story's also hard for me to believe.
**[02:45] Shido**
That's right. You've fought Kurumi
plenty of times already.
**[02:49] Shido**
But—
**[02:50] Mana**
Even so!
**[02:51] Mana**
If you ask me if it's *more* likely
that you're lying to me, big brother,
**[02:56] Mana**
then I'm forced to believe you two
by a narrow margin.
**[02:59] Natsumi**
This is getting complicated.
**[03:01] Natsumi**
Though I understand what you're getting at.
**[03:05] Mana**
More importantly, big brother,
**[03:07] Mana**
there's one other thing
I'm very concerned about.
**[03:10] Shido**
Hmm?
**[03:11] Mana**
This Mio Takamiya woman
that came up in your story.
**[03:15] Mana**
I find it hard to believe
she's unrelated to you and me.
**[03:19] Mana**
If her last name really is Takamiya,
**[03:21] Mana**
then there's a chance she's family.
A blood relative.
**[03:26] Shido**
I was curious about that too.
**[03:28] Shido**
Who is this Mio Takamiya?
**[03:31] Shido**
And what is she creating Spirits for?
**[03:34] Kotori**
She gave Kurumi her Sephirah
and made her a Spirit.
**[03:38] Kotori**
Sounds like the Phantom
that appeared before us.
**[03:42] Kaguya**
Mio Takamiya...
**[03:43] Kaguya**
Phantom...
**[03:45] Kaguya**
And the Spirit of Origin
that Kurumi mentioned...
**[03:48] Yuzuru**
Question.
**[03:49] Yuzuru**
What is the relationship between all three?
**[03:55] Nia**
If only we could use my Raziel...
**[03:58] Nia**
Then we'd have our answer in an instant.
**[04:01] Mukuro**
Indeed, it's a peculiar story, but...
**[04:04] Mukuro**
If you're so curious,
**[04:07] Mukuro**
all you have to do is
remember your past, right?
**[04:11] Shido**
If only I could.
**[04:14] Shido**
But both Mana and I have lost
our memories.
**[04:18] Shido**
We don't even know a single
thing about why we lost them.
**[04:23] Mukuro**
You told me that before.
**[04:26] Mukuro**
That's why I'm saying
you should try remembering.
**[04:30] Shido**
You think I can?
**[04:32] Mukuro**
My Michael is an absolute key.
**[04:35] Mukuro**
There's nothing it can't open.
**[04:37] Mukuro**
Not even the door to your sealed memories.
**[04:44] Natsumi**
Hold on!
**[04:45] Natsumi**
Is it safe to do something like that?
**[04:47] Miku**
I don't know what happened in the past,
**[04:51] Miku**
but it won't harm Darling
**[04:52] Miku**
the moment he remembers, will it?
**[04:56] Mana**
Big brother...
**[04:57] Shido**
I'll be all right.
**[04:58] Shido**
Don't worry.
**[05:00] Shido**
This isn't just about
our connection to Mio Takamiya.
**[05:03] Shido**
I want to know what happened in our past
**[05:06] Shido**
more than anyone else.
**[05:11] Kotori**
Shido...
**[05:13] Shido**
Michael!
**[05:19] Shido**
Okay, here I go.
**[05:21] Tohka**
Yeah!
**[05:22] Mukuro**
Don't worry.
**[05:24] Mukuro**
Believe in Michael.
**[05:27] Miku**
Such a long, hard object is going into Darling!
**[05:30] Kotori**
Miku, be quiet for a bit.
**[05:30] Miku**
No! You can't! Don't!
**[06:03] Reine**
Oh, you've awakened, Shin.
**[06:06] Shido**
Wha?!
**[06:07] Reine**
Hmm? Is something wrong?
**[06:11] Shido**
Oh, no, it's nothing.
**[06:14] Tohka**
Shido!
**[06:16] Tohka**
Are you okay?
**[06:17] Kotori**
Shido!
**[06:18] Yoshino**
Please take it easy.
**[06:21] Shido**
What's this now?
**[06:23] Shido**
What's going on?
**[06:24] Kaguya**
What do you mean, "What's going on"?!
**[06:26] Kaguya**
You suddenly collapsed and gave us a fright!
**[06:29] Yuzuru**
Agreed.
**[06:30] Yuzuru**
After inserting Michael into your head,
**[06:32] Yuzuru**
you passed out.
**[06:34] Shido**
Huh?
**[06:37] Shido**
I see. Sorry.
**[06:39] Shido**
Guess I worried you all.
**[06:41] Kotori**
No, what matters is you woke up.
**[06:43] Origami**
I knew my kiss would work.
**[06:45] Origami**
It woke Sleeping Beauty.
**[06:47] Shido**
Huh?
**[06:48] Kotori**
What nonsense are you spouting now?
**[06:50] Kotori**
Don't listen to her, Shido.
**[06:52] Origami**
Wait a minute now.
**[06:54] Origami**
There are numerous particles
floating in this space,
**[06:58] Origami**
so you can't say for certain that ones
from my breath didn't reach Shido's.
**[07:03] Origami**
So I see no problem with regarding
this as an indirect kiss.
**[07:07] Miku**
Hold it right there, Professor!
**[07:09] Miku**
That would mean that me and everyone
in this same room have been...
**[07:15] Origami**
Deeply entwined in a deep kiss.
**[07:18] Miku**
I can't believe such genius lies here!
**[07:20] Miku**
What has the scientific world
been doing this whole time?!
**[07:23] Tohka**
Hold on. I'm not following now.
**[07:27] Tohka**
Just how are we all entwined?
**[07:29] Miku**
I'll explain it in practice later!
**[07:31] Miku**
While Natsumi joins us for a three-way!
**[07:34] Natsumi**
Could you not rope me into this too?
**[07:35] Mukuro**
I'm sorry, Master.
**[07:37] Mukuro**
This was all because
I suggested using Michael.
**[07:40] Shido**
Oh, no. Nothing's actually wrong.
**[07:44] Shido**
See? I'm just fine!
**[07:47] Mukuro**
Master...
**[07:48] Mana**
So, big brother,
**[07:50] Mana**
what happened?
**[07:52] Mana**
Did you remember anything?
**[07:54] Shido**
Well, I...
**[07:57] Shido**
Huh? That's odd.
**[07:59] Shido**
I'm certain I saw something.
**[08:03] Shido**
Yet I can't remember anything.
**[08:08] Reine**
There's no need to hurry, Shin.
**[08:12] Reine**
You can just think of another way.
**[08:15] Shido**
Reine...
**[08:16] Mana**
Then could you try it on me too, big brother?
**[08:20] Shido**
Huh?
**[08:21] Mana**
It might not have worked for you,
but I might be able to remember something.
**[08:26] Mana**
Whether it's about Mio Takamiya
**[08:29] Mana**
or whatever happened to us in the past.
**[08:32] Kotori**
Yeah, yeah.
**[08:32] Kotori**
We'll try that later, okay?
**[08:34] Kotori**
Right now, let's wait
for Shido to recover first.
**[08:37] Mana**
Huh?
**[08:38] Mana**
What's the big idea?
**[08:42] Shido**
She's right.
**[08:44] Shido**
I'm sorry, Mana.
**[08:45] Shido**
Can we try it another time?
**[08:47] Mana**
Hmm?
**[08:51] Ellen**
Ike, you said you found something?
**[08:54] Westcott**
How has Nightmare, Kurumi Tokisaki,
**[08:57] Westcott**
been able to interfere
with every one of our attacks?
**[09:02] Westcott**
She's been aware of our plans in advance.
**[09:07] Westcott**
To be precise,
she's actually experienced them,
**[09:10] Westcott**
then altered things each time
**[09:13] Westcott**
to avoid Shido Itsuka's death.
**[09:17] Ellen**
What?
**[09:18] Artemisia**
That would spell trouble.
**[09:21] Artemisia**
It means we'll always be a step behind.
**[09:24] Westcott**
Indeed.
**[09:26] Westcott**
Though we're not necessarily
at a disadvantage.
**[09:29] Westcott**
Any strategy we conduct several times,
**[09:32] Westcott**
Nightmare will have to face
several hundred times.
**[09:35] Westcott**
Repeating the same thing
over and over will exhaust her mind.
**[09:39] Westcott**
Even Nightmare can't have
endless stamina and willpower.
**[09:46] Ellen**
Are you suggesting we wait
until Nightmare gives up?
**[09:51] Westcott**
That's our most certain option.
**[09:53] Westcott**
However, there's still a chance
**[09:56] Westcott**
Nightmare could come up with
some solution we won't be able to think of.
**[10:01] Westcott**
So we should also do everything in our power
**[10:04] Westcott**
to ensure she gives up as soon as possible.
**[10:10] NibeelcoleA**
Father, Father!
**[10:12] NibeelcoleA**
Look, look!
**[10:13] NibeelcoleB**
We caught this.
**[10:15] Both**
Nightmare!
**[10:16] Westcott**
Eavesdropping, huh?
**[10:18] Westcott**
Well done, Nibeelcole.
**[10:21] NibeelcoleA**
But several people she was with got away.
**[10:24] NibeelcoleB**
They might have overheard your conversation.
**[10:28] Westcott**
What's wrong with that?
**[10:30] Westcott**
Let's have an all-out war with full knowledge
of each other's capabilities.
**[10:35] Westcott**
There's still at least one of you left, right?
**[10:38] Westcott**
Tell your master for me...
**[10:41] Westcott**
I *will* kill Itsuka Shido.
**[10:46] Westcott**
No matter how many times you go back in time.
**[10:49] Westcott**
No matter how often you redo this world
**[10:52] Westcott**
or how often you rewrite history.
**[10:56] Westcott**
I'll be so thorough that
there's no overturning it.
**[11:00] Westcott**
Now, struggle all you like,
**[11:04] Westcott**
vilest Spirit.
**[11:12] Shido**
I was relieved Mana
backed down for us yesterday.
**[11:16] Kotori**
She had her magic power
enhanced by DEM, after all.
**[11:20] Kotori**
If she'd recalled those memories too,
**[11:22] Kotori**
it would have been pretty damaging.
**[11:25] Kotori**
Even if we want intel on Mio Takamiya.
**[11:28] Shido**
Mio Takamiya, huh?
**[11:32] Shido**
*I wonder why...*
**[11:33] Shido**
* I feel sure I've known*
* that name for a long time now.*
**[11:42] Shido**
Kurumi!
**[11:43] PatchKurumi**
Good day, Shido, Kotori.
**[11:48] Kotori**
Good morning, Kurumi.
**[11:50] Kotori**
You're wearing an awfully
nice outfit today, aren't you?
**[11:53] Shido**
It's her clone.
**[11:55] Shido**
Thank you for last night.
**[11:56] PatchKurumi**
I should thank you.
**[11:58] PatchKurumi**
But it's still too early for you
to be thanking me.
**[12:02] Shido**
Huh?
**[12:03] PatchKurumi**
On February 20th, DEM Industries
will use their full forces
**[12:09] PatchKurumi**
to come kill you, Shido.
**[12:13] PatchKurumi**
I came here today to warn you of that.
**[12:19] Kotori**
So, what's your objective?
**[12:23] PatchKurumi**
To be honest,
**[12:24] PatchKurumi**
the main body of Kurumi Tokisaki doesn't
know that I, her clone, am here right now.
**[12:31] PatchKurumi**
The real me intends to handle
this matter all on our own.
**[12:37] PatchKurumi**
She plans to repeat time as often as it takes
**[12:40] PatchKurumi**
to seize a future in which Shido survives.
**[12:45] PatchKurumi**
However, our enemy is aware of her resolve.
**[12:49] PatchKurumi**
That's why they're using their full forces.
**[12:52] PatchKurumi**
DEM's operation
**[12:54] PatchKurumi**
is also an attempt to break my spirit
as I pass through time.
**[13:00] Kotori**
So the real reason you're here is
to encourage Shido to evacuate?
**[13:06] PatchKurumi**
That alone is not the entirety of the truth.
**[13:09] Shido**
Huh?
**[13:11] PatchKurumi**
It would be a waste for Shido
to remain in the dark
**[13:14] PatchKurumi**
when I'm working so hard
to protect him, wouldn't it?
**[13:22] Shido**
I get it.
**[13:26] PatchKurumi**
Now, if you'll excuse me.
**[13:28] PatchKurumi**
Please do survive this, Shido.
**[13:32] Shido**
Kurumi!
**[13:33] PatchKurumi**
Yes, what is it?
**[13:36] Shido**
If it's possible, tell Kurumi:
**[13:40] Shido**
"Thank you. I'm still alive because of you.
**[13:44] Shido**
But I won't be the one
in need of saving forever.
**[13:47] Shido**
Once we've taken care of DEM,
I'll come to seal your Spirit power—"
**[13:52] Shido**
No, that's not right.
**[13:55] Shido**
"This time, I'll be the one to steal a kiss.
**[13:59] Shido**
So prepare yourself, my honey."
**[14:09] PatchKurumi**
What a wonderful retort.
**[14:12] PatchKurumi**
I'm truly blessed.
**[14:30] Sign**
Wednesday, February 15th
**[14:30] Sign**
You have a new message.
**[14:32] Sign**
Kotori
**[14:32] Sign**
Today
**[14:32] Sign**
Reine, come to the meeting room
We have an emergency.
**[14:33] Reine**
You're coming, Wizard?
**[14:36] Kotori**
The situation is dire.
**[14:39] Kotori**
Judging from the state of things,
**[14:40] Kotori**
the information we received from
Kurumi's clone is worth believing.
**[14:44] Kotori**
Though we also can't afford
to run and hide forever.
**[14:48] Kaguya**
But there's no negotiating either.
**[14:51] Yuzuru**
Certainly.
**[14:53] Yuzuru**
There's no room for discussion here.
**[14:55] Tohka**
Which means...
**[14:56] Kotori**
We only have one option left.
**[14:58] Kotori**
Defeating DEM.
**[15:01] Kotori**
Of course, that's easier said than done.
**[15:04] Kotori**
But we'll have to go on the offensive
**[15:07] Kotori**
in order to seize our own future.
**[15:10] Woodman**
*That's right, Commander Itsuka.*
**[15:13] Shido**
Mr. Woodman!
**[15:15] Shido**
Are you feeling better already?
**[15:18] Woodman**
*Yes, you don't need to worry about me.*
**[15:22] Woodman**
*I'm sorry I was out of contact for so long.*
**[15:26] Woodman**
*Our enemy is certainly great.*
**[15:29] Woodman**
*However, DEM is an organization helmed*
**[15:34] Woodman**
* by Isaac Westcott's charisma*
* and Ellen Mathers's competence.*
**[15:39] Woodman**
* That means it won't be much of a threat*
* once those two are taken out.*
**[15:46] Shido**
In other words, defeating Westcott
and Ellen is our key to victory.
**[15:51] MARIA**
*Understood.*
**[15:52] MARIA**
*Then perhaps it would be worth trying* that*.*
**[15:55] Shido**
Huh?
**[15:57] Kotori**
MARIA, what do you mean by "that"?
**[15:59] MARIA**
* I'm saying that it might be*
* possible to nullify Nibeelcole.*
**[16:04] Nia**
Huh?!
**[16:05] Origami**
Truthfully, I also have an idea
for how to handle Bandersnatch.
**[16:09] Nia**
H-Hold on!
**[16:10] Orgami**
The enemy's new Realizer models are—
**[16:12] Nia**
Stop, stop!
**[16:13] Nia**
Enough talking about it.
**[16:15] MARIA**
*What's the matter, Nia?*
**[16:17] MARIA**
*We're just getting to the main topic.*
**[16:19] Nia**
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
**[16:21] Nia**
You don't get it, Robo-girl.
**[16:23] MARIA**
* First, I demand an explanation*
* for that nickname.*
**[16:27] MARIA**
* Depending on your answer,*
* I may eject you from the ship.*
**[16:29] Nia**
Have you forgotten?
**[16:31] Nia**
Westcott can use Beelzebub,
the omniscient Demon King.
**[16:34] Kotori**
Ah!
**[16:35] Natsumi**
That's right.
**[16:36] Natsumi**
He can look up any event that happens
throughout the entire universe.
**[16:40] Natsumi**
Meaning...
**[16:41] Yoshino**
He might learn everything
that unfolds in this discussion.
**[16:46] Nia**
Exactly.
**[16:47] Nia**
However,
**[16:48] Nia**
it doesn't know how to read people's minds
**[16:51] Nia**
or what the future holds.
**[16:53] Nia**
So even if you come up with a strategy,
**[16:55] Nia**
you can't mention it out loud.
**[16:58] MARIA**
*I hate to admit it, but you are correct.*
**[17:01] MARIA**
*Thank you, Nia.*
**[17:05] Nia**
As long as you understand!
**[17:06] Nia**
Humility is a virtue,
**[17:09] Nia**
spriteless Robo-girl.
**[17:12] MARIA**
* By the way, Nia, could you*
* please touch my console?*
**[17:15] Nia**
Huh? Like this?
**[17:22] Nia**
Hey! What are you doing?! Come on!
**[17:24] MARIA**
*I'm grateful for the flaw you pointed out.*
**[17:27] MARIA**
* However, you needed to be punished*
* for that insulting nickname.*
**[17:33] Nia**
That's false logic!
**[17:35] Miku**
Still, it's rather absurd that we have to have
**[17:38] Miku**
our strategy meeting without being
able to voice any ideas or opinions.
**[17:42] Origami**
I think there are still things
we can each do on our own.
**[17:45] Origami**
There's something I'd like to take care of, too.
**[17:47] Woodman**
*Good point.*
**[17:48] Woodman**
*I'll do everything I can as well.*
**[17:56] Kurumi**
Do you have any excuse for yourself?
**[17:58] PatchKurumi**
My, oh my.
**[18:00] Kurumi**
I already received word from another me.
**[18:03] Kurumi**
I heard you informed Shido
and Kotori about DEM's assault.
**[18:09] Kurumi**
I can't have you acting on your own
without orders from me.
**[18:14] Kurumi**
You'll need to pay for disturbing
the order with your life.
**[18:19] PatchKurumi**
Yes, yes. There's no getting past that.
**[18:24] PatchKurumi**
But one last thing.
**[18:27] PatchKurumi**
I have a message from Shido.
**[18:31] PatchKurumi**
"I love, love, super-love you!
Let's get married, my honey!"
**[18:35] Kurumi**
Only the "my honey" part of that was accurate!
**[18:39] PatchKurumi**
I know you already heard it
from another clone.
**[18:51] PatchKurumi**
My, oh my.
**[18:54] Kurumi**
I wouldn't be so foolish
**[18:55] Kurumi**
as to pare down my own forces
right before a major battle.
**[18:59] Kurumi**
If you are still a part of me,
**[19:02] Kurumi**
then at least be useful first
**[19:04] Kurumi**
and then die on the battlefield for me.
**[19:09] PatchKurumi**
Yes, yes. I understand.
**[19:15] Ryoko**
A secret organization protecting Spirits, huh?
**[19:19] Ryoko**
You show up out of nowhere,
**[19:21] Ryoko**
and you expect us to believe that nonsense?
**[19:23] Mikie**
B-But Captain,
**[19:25] Mikie**
they've both come here
knowing it meant great danger.
**[19:29] Milly**
I don't think we should be
so quick to assume they're lying.
**[19:32] Mana**
I know you must find it hard to believe.
**[19:35] Mana**
But it's all true.
**[19:38] Origami**
On February 20th,
**[19:40] Origami**
there will likely be a major
battle here in Tengu City.
**[19:43] Origami**
When it goes down,
**[19:44] Origami**
DEM will probably request
even the captains sortie.
**[19:49] Origami**
But I want you to ignore that request.
**[19:52] Milly**
Is that also information uncovered
by the secret organization Ratatoskr?
**[19:57] Mikie**
Still, even if what you say is true...
**[20:00] Ryoko**
That's right.
**[20:01] Ryoko**
Spurning DEM's request means
ignoring orders from above.
**[20:06] Ryoko**
So you're asking us to lose our jobs
and serve prison time on top of that?
**[20:11] Ryoko**
For one thing,
**[20:13] Ryoko**
why are you telling us
not to attack the Spirits?
**[20:16] Ryoko**
They're the enemy of mankind, aren't they?
**[20:18] Origami**
That's maliciously spun
information spread by DEM.
**[20:22] Mana**
The Spirits have no intention
of attacking mankind.
**[20:27] Mikie**
That's a lot to take in all at once.
**[20:32] Milly**
If what you just told us is true,
**[20:34] Milly**
then I would love to try fiddling with this
secret organization's new weapons!
**[20:39] Milly**
It's stirring my instincts as a mechanic!
**[20:41] Ryoko**
Sorry, but could you be quiet for a bit?
**[20:48] Ryoko**
You know we can't do what you're asking.
**[20:51] Mikie**
Captain...
**[20:52] Origami**
That's a shame.
**[20:53] Origami**
Though I don't fault you for your decision.
**[20:56] Origami**
Still, if you do deploy to the battlefield,
**[20:59] Origami**
at least stick to the rear.
**[21:00] Ryoko**
Huh?
**[21:02] Origami**
I don't want to kill you all.
**[21:05] Ryoko**
Sounds like you're really
underestimating us.
**[21:07] Ryoko**
I know you were a skilled fighter, but...
**[21:12] Origami**
Please.
**[21:29] Kurumi**
Zaphkiel, Het!
**[21:31] Kurumi**
Het!
**[21:32] Kurumi**
Het!
**[21:33] Kurumi**
Het!
**[21:34] Kurumi**
Het, Het, Het, Het, Het, Het,
**[21:40] Kurumi**
Het!
**[21:47] Kurumi**
Now, shall we begin our Date?
