    Pitter, patter, the rain starts to drop.
[00:15] ---
    While the water may fill up
    the holes on the road,
[00:18] ---
    "Caution: Tram in Motion"
    it will never fill up the hole of one's heart.
[00:22] ---
    it will never fill up the hole of one's heart.
[00:25] ---
    The droplet trickling down his cheek
    flows into the boy's heart,
[00:31] ---
    and while that may create a ripple,
[00:34] ---
    it will never become his tears.
[00:52] ---
    "Caution: Tram in Motion"
[00:58] ---
    The girl runs,
[01:00] ---
    faster than anyone;
    to race through the present,
[01:04] ---
    to search for the past left behind,
[01:06] ---
    towards the holy gate, the Divine Gate...
[01:13] ---
    The boy who lights flames.
[01:16] ---
    The red blazing flame.
[01:17] ---
    It is the warmth he has always felt
    close by since he was little.
[01:23] ---
    Believing it was handed down
    to him by his late father...

[01:38] ---
    OMG, did you see that show yesterday?
[01:39] ---
    --Yeah, I did!
    --It was super funny!
[01:41] ---
    I know!
[01:46] ---
    What's with him?
[01:54] ---
    I can see... I can see it!
[01:57] ---
    I'll rebuild this shitty world right now!
[02:07] ---
    Huh?
[02:08] ---
    What is it?
[02:15] ---
    Do you believe in the Divine Gate?
[02:23] ---
    Once upon a time, the three worlds merged,
    gifting us with six abilities.
[02:32] ---
    Since then, the true ability users
[02:35] ---
    are called by the Divine Gate,
    where all wishes come true.
[02:42] ---
    Every mother tells this tale to her children.
[02:46] ---
    At one point, you probably thought
    that you may hold such a power yourself!
[02:51] ---
    And yet, you forgot all about it.
[02:54] ---
    You won't pay respect
    to the chosen ones like us!
[02:58] ---
    Don't move!
[03:02] ---
    The Divine Gate is real.
[03:04] ---
    And I will change the world!
[03:08] ---
    No! Help me! Help--
[03:12] ---
    --Hm? Who the hell are you?
    --Help me.
[03:18] ---
    Are you an Adapter?!
[03:21] ---
    Get lost!
[03:24] ---
    You little brat! Move!
[03:40] ---
    Freeze! We're the World Council!
[03:46] ---
    You!
[03:47] ---
    Nontron in position. Generating zone.
[03:50] ---
    Wait, right now?
[03:51] ---
    Ready to move on.
[04:07] ---
    Ah!
[04:09] ---
    Hey, you! What happened?!
[04:13] ---
    Hold on! That's a violation
    of the Driver possession law!
[04:18] ---
    I don't have a Driver.
[04:21] ---
    What? But--
[04:22] ---
    Akane! We need to prioritize
    saving this person!
[04:27] ---
    Quest clear. We have one person
    in custody: critical condition.
[04:32] ---
    Please send medical aid immediately.
[04:34] ---
    Roger that. Zone will be maintained
    until the rescue-tron arrives.
[04:40] ---
    Oh, hey!
[04:49] ---
    This is why I don't like
    to get soaked in rain.
[04:57] ---
    Just as rain will not fall forever,
    time does not flow slowly either.
[05:11] ---
    You again? Who are you?
[05:16] ---
    The Divine Gate is almost within your reach,
    but you won't reach out.
[05:23] ---
    It's because you think it's intangible,
    just like emotion is.
[05:31] ---
    So weird.
[05:40] ---
    Around 8am today,
    an incident using a Driver occurred
[05:45] ---
    inside the inbound central line tramcar,
    where several were injured.
[05:51] ---
    The attacker was captured
    thanks to the World Council's
[05:55] ---
    academy students that
    happened to be at the scene.
[06:02] ---
    Thank you, thank you.
[06:11] ---
    That guy with the blue eyes
    this morning-- I wonder who he was?
[06:14] ---
    I think they're looking into it.
    He's an Adapter, so we should know soon.
[06:24] ---
    Let's race!
[06:25] ---
    What? Again?!
[06:28] ---
    Hey, you think that water-user
    really didn't have a Driver and--
[06:33] ---
    His eyes looked like he was crying.
[06:37] ---
    Huh? Did they?
[06:41] ---
    Anyway, how can you be running all the time?
[06:45] ---
    Don't you get tired of it?
[06:46] ---
    No, I don't.
[06:48] ---
    "Attendance Management System: Verifying Admittance"
    I want to run straight forever if I can.
[06:51] ---
    I want to run straight forever if I can.
[06:53] ---
    I'm afraid I'll get lost
[06:55] ---
    "Admittance Granted"
    if I take a turn or make a detour.
[06:58] ---
    Whoa.
[07:00] ---
    First place!
[07:09] ---
    I wish the Divine Gate just appeared right here.
[07:13] ---
    I was able to see it once.
[07:14] ---
    You know, if you keep talking
    about the Gate, you'll lose friends.
[07:18] ---
    I don't care. I have a best friend
    that understands it.
[07:24] ---
    And where is that best friend now, bon?
[07:27] ---
    W-Well...
[07:30] ---
    Where the hell were you?!
    Act like a pet would, pet!
[07:34] ---
    If you're gonna be like that,
    I won't share intel, bon.
[07:37] ---
    Now, now. No fighting.
[07:40] ---
    So, what'd you find out, Metabon?
[07:42] ---
    According to the security camera,
    this morning's incident
[07:45] ---
    was caused by the fire-user.
    He attacked the passengers, bon.
[07:49] ---
    The water-user just stopped him, bon.
[07:52] ---
    I see.
[07:54] ---
    Oh, wow!
[07:56] ---
    Jeez, who is he? His eyes look
    like he's about to kill somebody.
[08:01] ---
    Really? I still think it looks
    like he's crying.
[08:09] ---
    Maybe he can see the Divine Gate.
[08:13] ---
    Do you really believe in that fairytale?
[08:16] ---
    That your wish will come true
    when you get to the Gate?
[08:20] ---
    Akane, you secretly believe in it, too.
[08:24] ---
    No, I don't! I'm not a child.
[08:27] ---
    Then why do you attend here?
[08:30] ---
    To become a hero using the Driver's power?
    For power? For money?
[08:37] ---
    No, but...
[08:38] ---
    See, just as I suspected!
[08:40] ---
    Whatever.
[08:45] ---
    Next, regarding the tram-jacking
    incident this morning.
[08:47] ---
    The attacker was a demon that came to
    Terrastia for a contract job two years ago.
[08:52] ---
    He was an Adapter.
[08:55] ---
    How is he?
[08:56] ---
    Not life-threatening, but severely injured.
[09:00] ---
    Maybe he couldn't get used to
    this world's environment?
[09:03] ---
    He was suspected of having some
    form of psychotic disorders.
[09:08] ---
    Jeez, this is why I don't like
    people from Hellistia.
[09:12] ---
    That's just your stereotype.
[09:16] ---
    Humans like us in Terrastia,
    fairies in Celestia, and
[09:21] ---
    demons in Hellistia;
    There is no psychological difference.
[09:24] ---
    Says the psycho. Not really convincing.
[09:29] ---
    What did you say?!
[09:32] ---
    Base his punishment on past cases.
    Tris, I'll leave that up to you.
[09:37] ---
    Okay, boss.
[09:38] ---
    And the boy?
[09:41] ---
    He quickly left the scene.
[09:44] ---
    I see. I'd like to have a talk with him.
[09:49] ---
    Understood.
[09:51] ---
    Seems you're giving this kid
    special treatment, doesn't it?
[09:57] ---
    Yes, but I believe I've been doing that
    with everybody here as well.
[10:03] ---
    Yeah, but he's not--
[10:04] ---
    I will have him attend our academy,
    so it won't be a problem.
[10:11] ---
    I don't like him at all.
[10:13] ---
    Yes, I understand how you feel.
    But for now--
[10:19] ---
    I know. You don't want me
    to meddle with him.
[10:23] ---
    Good boy.
[10:34] ---
    "Premium Choice - Mackerel Ramen"
    "150% more volume; Tasty!"
[10:35] ---
    Gross!
[10:36] ---
    Would mackerel ramen taste good?
[10:39] ---
    Why is he putting in ice?
[10:41] ---
    He's always eating it like that.
[10:43] ---
    It'll get watered-down.
[10:46] ---
    What a weirdo, that parent-killer.
[10:50] ---
    So, is that a true story?
[10:54] ---
    My parents said it was.
[10:56] ---
    That he was a neglected child and
    went through something pretty awful.
[11:00] ---
    Seriously?
[11:02] ---
    But then, how's he attending school
    after killing his parents?
[11:15] ---
    I wish the rain would fall even harder.
[11:19] ---
    Swallowing everything, like a muddy stream.
[11:23] ---
    But even then, rain cannot put out a fire.
[11:30] ---
    Yeah, he's like that.
[11:32] ---
    Let's go.
[11:33] ---
    Hold on.
[11:35] ---
    Did you call for us, Special Adviser, ma'am?
[11:38] ---
    Whoa!
[11:40] ---
    I told you not to call me ma'am.
[11:42] ---
    Jeez, watch it!
[11:45] ---
    There's no reason you couldn't dodge that.
[11:47] ---
    Why do you think we came here
    from the Heaven World?
[11:52] ---
    All for the greatness to strengthen
    our ability as Adapters!
[11:58] ---
    I don't like your tone!
[12:01] ---
    So, Master. What did you want to talk about?
[12:03] ---
    About this morning's incident that
    you two were involved in, of course.
[12:08] ---
    We've already heard about it.
[12:12] ---
    Then this should be quick.
[12:15] ---
    This water-user will join your team.
[12:19] ---
    Oh, will he be attending the academy?
[12:23] ---
    Seriously?
[12:24] ---
    We're in the midst of recruiting, to be accurate.
[12:28] ---
    Arthur has been asking for a while,
    but he would always decline.
[12:34] ---
    Hmm, I wonder why?
[12:37] ---
    I don't know that,
[12:39] ---
    but for a human with this much power,
    people other than Arthur
[12:42] ---
    wouldn't leave him alone either.
[12:45] ---
    Nom nom.
[12:46] ---
    So we would like for you two to persuade
    this boy to join the academy.
[12:53] ---
    What?
[12:54] ---
    Mind you, this is your mission.
    The water fairy is already on it as well.
[13:00] ---
    Really?
[13:01] ---
    No problem for me.
    That boy's got me curious anyway.
[13:06] ---
    Thanks. This boys' name is...
[13:11] ---
    Aoto?
[13:13] ---
    I've heard of that name before.
[13:15] ---
    I'm sure. He was all over the media
    four years ago as the parent-killer, Aoto.
[13:34] ---
    You again?
[13:36] ---
    Well, Arthur told me to come get you.
[13:40] ---
    But to tell you the truth,
    I'm here because I want to be.
[13:44] ---
    Well I'm not thankful for it.
[13:48] ---
    Do you really belong in your current school?
[13:53] ---
    If you come to the academy,
    there will be other Adapters like you.
[13:57] ---
    You'd feel more comfortable.
[14:00] ---
    I've turned it down numerous times already.
[14:05] ---
    Arthur said we need your power
    to maintain peace in this world, but...
[14:12] ---
    I have this feeling that
    I could be of your help.
[14:26] ---
    Long time no see, Aoto.
    Thanks for coming.
[14:30] ---
    Anyone would, if they were told you wanted
    to talk about this morning's incident.
[14:36] ---
    That's true.
[14:37] ---
    Will you arrest me?
[14:39] ---
    Of course not. I wouldn't have cared
    if you killed that criminal.
[14:44] ---
    I don't have the power to do that.
[14:48] ---
    You're a terrible liar, Aoto. But anyway,
[14:53] ---
    I wanted to give you this.
[14:59] ---
    It's a Driver created just for you.
[15:03] ---
    Despite your belief, your power
    attracts other large powers.
[15:09] ---
    Without Drivers, humans aren't a match
    for the other world's large powers.
[15:18] ---
    Power can't change anything.
[15:21] ---
    Excuse me.
[15:24] ---
    I promise you, I'll only tell you the truth.
[15:31] ---
    Let me know when you want to know the truth.
[15:35] ---
    I'll always be waiting for you.
[15:43] ---
    Akane.
[15:44] ---
    Yeah.
[15:47] ---
    Hey! Sorry about this morning.
[15:51] ---
    We apologize for the misunderstanding.
[15:54] ---
    Sure.
[15:57] ---
    Anyway, would you like a tour of the academy?
[16:00] ---
    People here are all Adapters like us.
[16:06] ---
    Why me?
[16:08] ---
    Oh, well--
[16:09] ---
    We were told to recruit you to the academy!
[16:12] ---
    Akane.
[16:13] ---
    There's no point in keeping it a secret.
[16:16] ---
    Um, if you come here, there are lots
    of benefits and you can hone your ability.
[16:22] ---
    What would you use that ability for?
[16:25] ---
    It's useless.
[16:28] ---
    Sorry.
[16:32] ---
    I'm going to reach the Divine Gate
    and have my wishes granted!
[16:37] ---
    I told you, knock it off.
[16:38] ---
    Don't you see it?
[16:41] ---
    You do, don't you?!
[16:46] ---
    Even if I did, I don't have any wishes.
[16:51] ---
    Well, we can't force you.
[16:55] ---
    But she's dead serious, and so am I. That's all.
[17:02] ---
    Oh, and I don't like secrets,
    so I'm gonna tell you in advance.
[17:06] ---
    Honestly, I've heard rumors
    about you being a parent-killer.
[17:10] ---
    But a rumor is just a rumor.
    What I think of you is important--
[17:14] ---
    Yeah, well, I did kill them.
[17:20] ---
    What?
[17:41] ---
    What do you want from me?
[17:43] ---
    You're a liar, but you aren't.
[17:47] ---
    You could've killed them, but you didn't.
[17:49] ---
    You seem cold, but you aren't.
[17:52] ---
    A rain will not fall forever,
[17:54] ---
    but after that day, the rain never
    stopped falling on your heart.
[18:00] ---
    You can't eat warm food,
    because they never gave it to you.
[18:05] ---
    "Premium Choice - Mackerel Ramen"
    "150% more volume; Tasty!"
[18:08] ---
    Just like your cold heart,
    you can only eat cold food.
[18:13] ---
    How...?
[18:14] ---
    I know, because I was watching.
[18:23] ---
    You make mommy so proud.
[18:25] ---
    That's right. Your ability is Daddy's pride.
[18:30] ---
    I'm sick of hearing that.
[18:31] ---
    Sorry, sorry.
[18:33] ---
    But it's the truth.
[18:35] ---
    I know. Let's go buy that thing you wanted
    next Sunday. Just the three of us.
[18:42] ---
    Good idea. Let's do that, huh?
[19:02] ---
    Oh, my.
[19:40] ---
    You were always a mystery to me, big brother.
[19:43] ---
    You want to hate them, but you won't.
[19:45] ---
    You want to kill them, but you won't.
[19:48] ---
    But I just saw the color of your heart, brother.
[19:53] ---
    It was cold, really cold,
    like an ice-cold blue.
[20:03] ---
    I can save you, but I won't.
[20:06] ---
    I'll do what I want.
[20:20] ---
    You're always crying inside.
[21:11] ---
    The holy gate has opened.
[21:15] ---
    Let us go to the other side.
[21:21] ---
    Hey, let me borrow that heart.
[21:23] ---
    I'm going to open the gate.
[21:26] ---
    Living up to the forgotten ideals,
[21:28] ---
    you put on a grin.
    That's what I want to see.
[21:41] ---
    Lately, my vision is pretty blurry,
    and I'm repeating my same old routine.
[21:46] ---
    I learned a line that's out of my character,
    but I can't say it out loud.
[21:51] ---
    Being asked "How are ya doing?"
    makes me feel weird.
[21:56] ---
    But I've been acting tough for a
    while, so I guess it's OK.
[22:01] ---
    The real me behind my masks
    says with a tearful face:
[22:06] ---
    "I want you to thrill
    my untainted self some more."
[22:12] ---
    Hey, let me borrow that heart.
[22:14] ---
    I'm going to open the gate.
[22:17] ---
    Basically, I am that forgotten ideal.
[22:22] ---
    Hey, move those eyes!
[22:24] ---
    If the gate is opened,
[22:27] ---
    someone will laugh at that
    which they've never seen before.
[22:32] ---
    Even the cliche dreams,
[22:34] ---
    and myself crying beyond them...
[22:37] ---
    I want to sing about them!
[22:51] ---
    When I was little, I was told about
    conscious and subconscious a lot.
[22:57] ---
    So, the beloved Santa Clause
    comes even when it's not winter.
[23:01] ---
    Does your heart ache that much?
[23:03] ---
    "Inextinguishable Flame"
    Does your heart ache that much?
