[00:06] Tohka
    What's happening to me?
[00:10] Tohka
    Where am I?
[00:13] Tohka
    Where's Shido?
[00:15] Tohka
    Where's Mio Takamiya?
[00:17] Tohka
    Ahh, I'm sleepy...
[00:21] Tohka
    No, I can't...
[00:23] Tohka
    I have to...
[00:25] Tohka
    I have to hurry back to Shido...
[00:31] InverseTohka
    Will you sink?
[00:33] InverseTohka
    Well, that works too.
[00:36] Tohka
    Who's there?!
[00:38] Tohka
    Who are you?!
[00:40] Inverse
    My name?
[00:41] Inverse
    I have none.
[00:44] Inverse
    If I had to say, then I am you.
[00:49] Tohka
    Me?
[00:51] Tohka
    What on earth is going on here?
[00:54] Tohka
    Is this a dream?
[00:56] Inverse
    That's not correct,
    but it's not far off either.
[01:00] Inverse
    The only difference is we're inside
    that woman, not your head.
[01:05] Tohka
    That woman?
[01:07] Tohka
    You mean Mio Takamiya?
[01:10] Tohka
    Where's everyone else?!
[01:12] Tohka
    If I'm here, then shouldn't
    everyone else be here, too?
[01:16] Inverse
    You're the only one alive in here.
[01:19] Inverse
    All the others died as humans
    when that woman stole their Sephirah.
[01:32] Tohka
    Wait.
[01:33] Tohka
    Died as humans?
[01:34] Tohka
    What do you mean?
[01:36] Tohka
    I know Origami and Kotori used to be human,
[01:39] Tohka
    but Yoshino, Kaguya, Yuzuru,
    and Natsumi are pure spirits like me, right?
[01:44] Inverse
    No.
[01:46] Inverse
    Aside from that woman,
    all those known as Spirits
[01:49] Inverse
    are just humans
    who that woman granted Sephirah.
[01:54] Inverse
    All of those you named just now
[01:56] Inverse
    simply lost their memories
    of when they were human.
[02:00] Tohka
    Wha?!
[02:00] Tohka
    All the Spirits used to be human?
[02:05] Tohka
    No, I remember Nia
    saying something like that, too...
[02:09] Tohka
    But if that is true,
[02:12] Tohka
    then why am I alive?
[02:14] Tohka
    If I was a human too,
[02:16] Tohka
    then I should've died as a human when my
    Sephirah was stolen, just like the others!
[02:23] Inverse
    I'll tell you.
[02:25] Inverse
    That's because...
[04:03] Inverse
    What I've just told you
    is everything I understand.
[04:10] Inverse
    Hmm?
[04:12] Inverse
    I thought you would be confused,
[04:14] Inverse
    but you've absorbed that surprisingly fast.
[04:17] Tohka
    Yes.
[04:18] Tohka
    No, I am confused.
[04:21] Tohka
    But if what you say is true,
[04:23] Tohka
    then right now I'm grateful for that.
[04:26] Inverse
    Oh?
[04:28] Tohka
    I'm still here and alive.
[04:30] Tohka
    And if I'm alive,
[04:33] Tohka
    then I can still fight back.
[04:34] Inverse
    Your enemy is our mother.
[04:36] Inverse
    Even if you are able to fight,
    you're no match for her.
[04:40] Inverse
    The most you can do is buy
    a few minutes of time at best.
[04:43] Inverse
    Then she'll eliminate you without
    leaving a trace of consciousness.
[04:48] Tohka
    I don't care.
[04:49] Tohka
    If I buy a few minutes,
    then Shido might be able to escape.
[04:53] Tohka
    He might be able to think of some way
    to break free of this situation.
[04:57] Tohka
    That's enough hope to risk my life for.
[05:02] Inverse
    Oh?
[05:04] Inverse
    Though if you die,
[05:07] Inverse
    then that means I will perish as well.
[05:11] Inverse
    Since I am you.
[05:13] Tohka
    I-Is that true?
[05:15] Tohka
    Well, hmm...
[05:18] Tohka
    Sorry.
[05:20] Tohka
    But you want me to fight too, don't you?
[05:25] Inverse
    Oh?
[05:26] Inverse
    Why do you think that?
[05:27] Tohka
    Because you called out to me, didn't you?
[05:36] Inverse
    True!
[05:37] Inverse
    Yes, that's true.
[05:44] Inverse
    Then you should go, me.
[05:47] Inverse
    Go fight to your heart's content.
[05:49] Tohka
    Yes. Thank you, me.
[06:05] Shido
    Everyone's dead?
[06:08] Shido
    No way...
[06:19] Mio
    Shin...
[06:20] Mio
    I'm sorry.
[06:22] Mio
    I never wanted to make you sad,
[06:27] Mio
    but it'll be all right.
[06:30] Mio
    Those memories will be gone soon enough.
[06:33] Mio
    This sin is mine to bear alone.
[06:35] Mio
    So there's no need to blame yourself, Shin.
[06:40] Shido
    I...
[06:42] Mio
    We'll redo everything, starting from
    that day you were shot in front of me.
[06:49] Shido
    Redo everything?
[06:52] Shido
    Forgetting everything?
[06:54] Mio
    Yes.
[06:56] Mio
    As Shinji Takamiya.
[07:08] Tohka
    Shido!
[07:15] Tohka
    Shido!
[07:16] Tohka
    You're safe?!
[07:18] Shido
    Tohka?!
[07:21] Tohka
    Nothing is over yet!
[07:23] Tohka
    Now, stand up, Shido!
[07:27] Shido
    Tohka!
[07:29] Shido
    Tohka!
[07:31] Shido
    I'm sorry, Tohka...
[07:32] Shido
    I...
[07:34] Shido
    For a moment, I nearly gave up...
[07:35] Tohka
    What are you saying?!
[07:37] Tohka
    Shido, you're still alive right now
    because you didn't lose hope!
[07:41] Tohka
    Could there be any better result than that?!
[07:45] Shido
    Thank you, Tohka.
[07:47] Shido
    Honestly, you keep saving me, Tohka.
[07:51] Tohka
    I'm always relying on you too, Shido.
[07:54] Tohka
    Even now, I was able to return because of you.
[07:57] Tohka
    I'm able to stand before Mio because of you!
[08:01] Shido
    Tohka...
[08:04] Shido
    Yeah!
[08:05] Mio
    I see.
[08:06] Mio
    So it was you, Tohka.
[08:09] Mio
    Of course it is.
[08:11] Mio
    I was always sure that if
    any would stand against me,
[08:14] Mio
    then it would be you.
[08:19] Mio
    I divided my power into ten Sephirah
[08:22] Mio
    and granted them to humans to create Spirits.
[08:26] Mio
    Though for some reason,
[08:29] Mio
    one of those ten Sephirah
    sprouted its own consciousness.
[08:33] Mio
    Almost like the moment I was born, too.
[08:38] Mio
    Shin, you've realized it too, haven't you?
[08:42] Mio
    The difference between Tohka
    and the other Spirits.
[08:45] Mio
    The one thing the other Spirits had
    that Tohka didn't have.
[08:52] Shido
    A name.
[08:53] Mio
    Yes.
[08:55] Mio
    All the Spirits used to be human.
[08:59] Mio
    That's why they possessed
    a name from the start.
[09:02] Mio
    However, Tohka was different.
[09:05] Mio
    Only Tohka and I were.
[09:08] Tohka
    I had my share of confusion.
[09:09] Tohka
    I had agonized over my lack of a name, too.
[09:13] Tohka
    Though right now I'm grateful for that.
[09:17] Tohka
    I was able to have you grant me my name
    because I didn't have one of my own.
[09:23] Tohka
    And I'm able to stand in front of you now
    because I was never human!
[09:31] Mio
    This is throwing off my plans a bit,
    but well, that's fine.
[09:35] Mio
    The result will still be the same.
[10:05] Tohka
    I did it, Shido!
[10:07] Tohka
    My attack went through!
[10:08] Shido
    Yeah.
[10:10] Shido
    Wait, it doesn't look like
    it damaged her at all...
[10:13] Tohka
    What are you saying?!
[10:14] Tohka
    Until just now Halvanhelv didn't
    even leave a scratch on her!
[10:18] Mio
    I see.
[10:20] Mio
    This seems a little troublesome.
[10:23] Mio
    My apologies, Tohka.
[10:25] Mio
    I'll take you seriously now.
[10:27] Mio
    I'll use my full might to steal Shin from you.
[10:31] Tohka
    I won't let you!
[10:33] Tohka
    Shido is mine!
[10:35] Shido
    Huh?
[10:41] Mio
    I see, so this...
[10:49] Mio
    I guess you stole a portion of my power
    and the other Spirits' power
[10:53] Mio
    when you escaped from within me.
[10:56] Mio
    That's how you're able to use such power.
[11:04] Tohka
    What?!
[11:05] Mio
    You are the only Pure Spirit
    in existence aside from myself.
[11:10] Mio
    It means you're something like my counterpart.
[11:13] Mio
    So perhaps it's only natural that
    you can do the same things I can.
[11:18] Shido
    Tohka!
[11:19] Shido
    I'll lend you power!
[11:50] Mio
    Yes, despair really doesn't suit you.
[11:56] Shido
    Tohka!
[11:58] Tohka
    Sandalphon!
[12:01] Mio
    Halvanhelv, huh?
[12:03] Mio
    Ein Sof Ohr, Hennet.
[12:06] Tohka
    Leitribish!
[13:04] Mio
    Well done, Tohka.
[13:08] Mio
    I'll have to respond to your
    noble feelings and emotions.
[13:19] Mio
    Ein.
[13:35] Shido
    Tohka?
[13:38] Mio
    Tohka is no more.
[13:40] Shido
    Huh?
[13:42] Mio
    Ein, the Angel of nothingness,
[13:43] Mio
    ignores all logic and eliminates everything.
[13:49] Mio
    Tohka is no more.
[13:51] Mio
    She doesn't exist in this world.
[13:55] Mio
    I had no intention of using this Angel,
[13:59] Mio
    since it erases the Spirit Power that
    Tohka possessed along with her, but...
[14:03] Mio
    I had no choice if I wanted
    to be certain I put her down.
[14:08] Mio
    On the other hand, that also means
    Tohka was pressuring me that badly.
[14:14] Mio
    So please give Tohka your praise.
[14:16] Mio
    Her feelings toward you were enough
    for her to surpass her limits.
[14:22] Mio
    Now, Shin,
[14:24] Mio
    there truly are no others left to interfere.
[14:27] Mio
    The power I have now is plenty
    to give you a body that never dies.
[14:33] Mio
    All that's left is restoring to you
    to Shin completely.
[14:40] Shido
    Metatron!
[14:46] Shido
    Camael!
[14:49] Shido
    Zadkiel!
[14:56] Shido
    Gabriel!
[14:57] Shido
    Raphael!
[15:01] Shido
    Haniel!
[15:09] Shido
    Michael!
[15:14] Mio
    It's no use.
[15:19] Shido
    What's this?!
[15:20] Mio
    I'm sorry.
[15:22] Mio
    It's just difficult
    when you fly around so much.
[15:25] Mio
    Now, Shin.
[15:34] Mio
    What?
[15:40] Kurumi
    It would seem I've made it in time.
[15:43] Kurumi
    Shido, well done staying alive for me.
[15:47] Shido
    Kurumi?!
[15:48] Shido
    What's going on?
[15:50] Shido
    I thought you were killed by Mio.
[15:52] Kurumi
    My apologies, Shido.
[15:56] Kurumi
    Honestly, I wanted to come
    racing to your side sooner,
[16:00] Kurumi
    but it was quite the first for me,
[16:02] Kurumi
    so I couldn't get the feeling down right.
[16:06] Shido
    Huh?
[16:07] Shido
    What are you talking about?
[16:09] Mio
    Yod Aleph, huh?
[16:11] Kurumi
    You're correct.
[16:13] Kurumi
    It's my eleventh bullet, one that
    sends the target into the future.
[16:19] Kurumi
    I'm a clone of Kurumi Tokisaki
[16:21] Kurumi
    sent into the future from roughly
    an hour ago using Yod Aleph.
[16:29] Kurumi
    Zaphkiel!
[16:40] Kurumi
    Yes, yes, I've been entrusted with this future.
[16:48] Kurumi
    I have been sent here
    to kill you as your final assassin.
[16:55] Mio
    Are you being serious?
[16:58] Mio
    Do you think a mere clone can defeat me?
[17:01] Kurumi
    I can exist for as long as the Spirit Power
    imbued in Yod Aleph lasts.
[17:07] Kurumi
    That's plenty of time to kill you!
[17:18] Shido
    Kurumi! What are you?!
[17:20] Kurumi
    I just told you, did I not?
[17:23] Kurumi
    I came to defeat Mio.
[17:26] Kurumi
    Oh, and one other thing.
[17:29] Kurumi
    I don't think I was able to forget
    how your kiss felt, Shido.
[17:37] Shido
    Kurumi!
[17:55] Shido
    Kurumi!
[17:57] Kurumi
    What a shame.
[17:59] Kurumi
    I wasn't enough.
[18:17] Mio
    Now everything is taken care of.
[18:20] Mio
    I applaud all of your feelings.
[18:22] Mio
    However, all of your resistance was futile.
[18:26] Shido
    Futile?
[18:28] Shido
    It wasn't futile.
[18:30] Shido
    Thanks to everyone...
[18:33] Shido
    and thanks to Tohka fighting for me,
    Kurumi made it in time.
[18:36] Shido
    And Kurumi made me realize it.
[18:41] Shido
    Origami, Nia, Yoshino, Kotori, Mukuro,
[18:47] Shido
    Natsumi, Kaguya, Yuzuru, Miku, and Tohka...
[18:54] Shido
    None of their Angels
    were able to work against you.
[18:57] Shido
    But I still have the power of one Angel left.
[19:02] Shido
    The power of an Angel
    I've never once used before.
[19:06] Shido
    Kurumi sent her clone into the future
    to make me realize that!
[19:17] Shido
    Zaphkiel!
[19:20] Shido
    Vav!
[19:48] Shido
    But what do I do?
[19:50] Shido
    What can I do to stop Mio's actions?
[19:53] Shido
    At this point in time,
    Mio should already be inside of Kurumi.
[19:57] Shido
    If I'm not careful, she might
    realize I'm trying to do something.
[20:01] Tohka
    Shido?
[20:05] Tohka
    What are you doing out here?
[20:08] Shido
    Tohka...
[20:10] Tohka
    Wha?!
[20:10] Tohka
    S-Shido?!
[20:13] Shido
    Tohka! Tohka!
[20:17] Tohka
    Yes, it's me.
[20:20] Tohka
    What's gotten into you, Shido?
[20:23] Shido
    Tohka, I...!
[20:28] Shido
    I had a dream.
[20:31] Tohka
    A dream?
[20:32] Shido
    Yeah, a bad dream.
[20:34] Shido
    One where everyone was defeated
    in the battle against DEM.
[20:39] Shido
    I couldn't do anything.
[20:42] Shido
    Even though you tried so hard for me, Tohka...
[20:45] Tohka
    Shido...
[20:48] Tohka
    It's all right.
[20:50] Tohka
    I'm sure that won't happen.
[20:53] Shido
    Tohka...
[20:57] Tohka
    Shido, you saved me.
[21:00] Tohka
    I'm a Spirit,
[21:01] Tohka
    and instead of calling me your enemy,
    you reached out to me.
[21:05] Tohka
    So I promise you.
[21:06] Tohka
    No matter what happens,
    I'll protect you, Shido.
[21:10] Tohka
    Besides, you're the man who's
    confronted me and the other Spirits.
[21:15] Tohka
    Like we'd let DEM defeat us now.
[21:19] Shido
    I guess that's true.
[21:23] Tohka
    What's the matter, Shido?
[21:25] Shido
    Thank you, Tohka.
[21:26] Shido
    Thanks to you, I think I see what I need to do.
[21:31] Tohka
    I don't really understand,
[21:34] Tohka
    but that's good then!
[21:39] Shido
    Reine.
[21:41] Reine
    Hmm?
[21:45] Reine
    What is it, Shin?
[21:47] Shido
    Reine,
[21:49] Shido
    would you go on a date with me tomorrow?
