[00:10] (Flashback) Shamil
    Look.
[00:11] (Flashback) Shamil
    Outside the window.
[00:14] (Flashback) Shamil
    At Earth.
[00:40] Student A
    It's so dark.
[00:41] Student B
    I'm scared.
[00:41] Student C
    I can't move.
[00:42] Student D
    I don't feel anything.
[00:43] Senku
    If I'm aware of that, my head must be
    ten billion percent fully functional.
[00:51] Senku
    Not bad.
[00:53] Senku
    Now, think.
[00:55] Senku
    For example...
[00:56] (Flashback) Senku
    There should be a delay between
    average times of the last posts by area
[01:00] (Flashback) Byakuya
    on sites like Twitter and Instagram.
[01:03] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Find those and calculate backwards,
[01:05] (Flashback) Byakuya
    and we can learn where the
    mysterious light originated.
[01:09] (Flashback) Byakuya
    It definitely started in South America.
[01:11] (Flashback) Byakuya
    The petrification beam
    spread radially from there.
[01:15] (Flashback) Lillian
    I would never have thought
    to figure it out that way.
[01:18] (Flashback) Byakuya
    I'd love to brag, but I can't take the credit.
[01:21] (Flashback) Byakuya
    My son, Senku, uses that sort of method a lot.
[01:25] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Now that we know that,
    it's time to head out.
[01:28] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Hang in there, Senku.
[01:30] (Flashback) Byakuya
    I'm going to save you along with
    all seven billion humans.
SIGN    A Hundred Nights and
    a Thousand Skies
[03:12] (Flashback) Connie
    Are you really going back to the surface?
[03:15] (Flashback) Connie
    You might be petrified
    the moment you land.
[03:17] (Flashback) Yakov
    If you're going, then at least go
    somewhere opposite the source.
[03:20] (Flashback) Yakov
    Like Japan, on the opposite side
    of the globe from South America.
[03:22] (Flashback) Yakov
    If the petrification beam
    is like a radiation beam,
[03:25] (Flashback) Yakov
    you need to stay as far away as you can.
[03:26] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Well, someone's gotta
    be a human test subject.
[03:30] (Flashback) Byakuya
    This was my idea, so I should
    really go by myself, but...
[03:34] (Flashback) Shamil
    Then we won't have enough fuel
    for the return trip in the Soyuz.
[03:37] (Flashback) Shamil
    They seat three each, and we only have two.
[03:39] (Flashback) Shamil
    We need three of us to take the plunge.
[03:42] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Sorry, but I guess I'll need
    two more to come with me.
[03:45] (Flashback) Shamil
    Therefore...
[03:50] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Shamil! You...
[03:53] (Flashback) Shamil
    There won't be a ground crew to help you.
[03:55] (Flashback) Shamil
    It'll be an unprecedented landing.
[03:57] (Flashback) Shamil
    You could even be petrified
    while you're maneuvering.
[04:00] (Flashback) Shamil
    You have a son, don't you, old man?
[04:03] (Flashback) Shamil
    If someone's going, it ought to
    be someone without a family.
[04:06] (Flashback) Shamil
    Like me.
[04:16] Senku
    Eight... nine...
[04:19] Senku
    216,000 seconds.
[04:21] Senku
    Roughly sixty hours since
    I became immobilized.
[04:37] Shamil
    I have great news and terrible news.
[04:41] (Flashback) Shamil
    The great news is that we've
    landed, and we aren't petrified.
[04:46] (Flashback) Shamil
    The terrible news is that we missed
    the target by a great distance
[04:49] (Flashback) Shamil
    and landed in the water upside-down.
[04:52] (Flashback) Shamil
    If we open the hatch,
    we'll take in water and sink.
[04:55] (Flashback) Dalia
    Don't worry.
[04:57] (Flashback) Dalia
    They lasted for nine hours when
    they crash-landed on water before.
[05:01] Shamil
    Yeah.
[05:03] (Flashback) Shamil
    But that's the end of our lives.
[05:07] Senku
    Five, six, seven...
[05:11] Senku
    Count the insane numbers
    to keep track of the date.
[05:14] Senku
    I have to know the seasons in the
    outside world for when I can revive.
[05:19] Senku
    That's all I can do right now.
[05:22] Senku & Byakuya
    It may be a worst-case scenario,
    but I have to do what I can.
[05:27] (Flashback) Dalia
    We have to go down there and
    find a boat to help them.
[05:31] (Flashback) Yakov
    And where's the key to start the boat?
[05:33] (Flashback) Yakov
    How many thousands of statues do we
    need to pickpocket before we find it?
[05:36] (Flashback) Yakov
    Even the closest continent—
[05:37] (Flashback) Byakuya
    We'll go help them from the nearest island.
[05:40] (Flashback) Byakuya
    I don't care if it's uninhabited.
[05:42] (Flashback) Byakuya
    If we can't find a boat, we'll make a raft.
[05:44] (Flashback) Yakov
    Do you really think we can
    land perfectly on an island?!
[05:47] (Flashback) Yakov
    We could be off by as
    much as ten kilometers!
[05:49] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Ten kilometers is nothing.
[05:51] (Flashback) Byakuya
    I'll swim the whole way,
[05:53] (Flashback) Byakuya
    fully clothed, if I have to.
[06:03] (Flashback) Shamil
    Let's calm our breathing.
[06:06] (Flashback) Shamil
    We have to conserve oxygen.
[06:09] (Flashback) Shamil
    Limit conversation, too.
[06:16] ---
    N-Na na na na na na na na
[06:20] ---
    You can feel the music in the air
[06:23] (Flashback) Shamil
    Why are you singing?!
[06:23] ---
    N-Na na na na na na na na
[06:24] (Flashback) Shamil
    I just said to calm your breathing!
[06:29] (Flashback) Lillian
    Sorry. But I don't think we'll
    need our onboard oxygen anymore.
[06:50] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Sorry it took me over ten hours.
[06:56] (Flashback) Shamil
    You're not young anymore, old man.
[07:01] (Flashback) Shamil
    Don't push it.
[07:03] (Flashback) Shamil
    You're way too much of a risk-taker.
[07:14] (Flashback) Dalia
    They're back!
[07:16] (Flashback) Yakov
    Everyone's safe!
[07:20] (Flashback) Byakuya
    That boat was abandoned on
    this island furthest away
[07:24] (Flashback) Byakuya
    from the petrification beam.
[07:27] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Which means there might be
    survivors on this island.
[07:45] (Flashback) Lillian
    No...
[07:56] (Flashback) Yakov
    Oh, shoot.
[07:58] (Flashback) Dalia
    Why don't we start gathering firewood?
[08:01] (Flashback) Shamil
    Yeah.
[08:17] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Bingo!
[08:19] (Flashback) Byakuya
    The Soyuz survival kit!
[08:22] (Flashback) Dalia
    Here we go, the ultimate toolkit.
[08:25] (Flashback) Lillian
    It looks awesome.
[08:26] (Flashback) Yakov
    We've been trained really well for shipwrecks.
[08:30] (Flashback) Byakuya
    All right, let's start with dinner.
[08:33] (Flashback) Connie
    Oh, I'll go find food, then.
[08:37] (Flashback) Connie
    There were farms and such
    by that man we saw earlier.
[08:39] (Flashback) Byakuya
    That sounds good.
[08:41] (Flashback) Byakuya
    You got this, Connie-chan.
[08:43] (Flashback) Connie
    Okay.
[08:47] (Flashback) Shamil
    I'll go, too, then.
SIGN    — 3 Years Later —
[09:15] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Congratulations, Connie-chan, Shamil!
    You're married now!
[09:19] (Flashback) Lillian
    Congratulations!
[09:22] (Flashback) Byakuya
    You look good together!
[09:24] (Flashback) Shamil
    I appreciate the gesture,
    but we don't need a fun ritual.
[09:29] (Flashback) Shamil
    With the world in the state it's in,
    I'm grateful just to be alive.
[09:33] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Oh, come on.
[09:34] (Flashback) Byakuya
    We have to have fun, especially
    because of the situation we're in.
[09:38] (Flashback) Byakuya
    There's hardly even any entertainment.
[09:39] (Flashback) Lillian
    Sure there is.
[09:41] (Flashback) Lillian
    Music!
[09:43] (Flashback) Lillian
    I'll sing for the occasion.
[09:46] (Flashback) Yakov
    What an opportunity!
[09:48] (Flashback) Yakov
    Diva Lillian!
[09:51] ---
    How far we've come
[09:54] ---
    How much we've changed
[09:56] ---
    A thousand nights and a million tears
[10:01] ---
    Now I can say that I've conquered my fear
[10:09] ---
    If I could go back, what would I tell you
[10:15] ---
    Wish you'd listen to the truth
[10:18] ---
    Till then I'll be patiently waiting right here
[10:43] (Flashback) Lillian
    Sorry.
[10:45] (Flashback) Lillian
    I just feel so defeated.
[10:49] (Flashback) Lillian
    All the music that so many geniuses
    spent thousands of years creating...
[10:53] (Flashback) Lillian
    Mozart, the Beatles...
[10:55] (Flashback) Lillian
    When I think that it's all going to go away...
[10:58] (Flashback) Byakuya
    It's not going away.
[11:01] (Flashback) Byakuya
    We'll undo the petrification someday.
[11:03] ---
    Promises are kept deep in the heart
[11:04] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Humanity isn't over.
[11:06] (Flashback) Byakuya
    At the very least, I'm certain
    that Senku is still alive.
[11:06] ---
    Bells are ringing so loud
[11:12] ---
    Our spirits will never die
[11:12] (Flashback) Lillian
    Yeah... I'm sure he is.
[11:15] ---
    As long as there is something
    worth fighting for
[11:16] (Flashback) Lillian
    He's your son, after all.
[11:17] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Well, we aren't blood relatives,
    but he's my son.
[11:21] (Flashback) Byakuya
    He's ten billion times more
    of a hotshot than I am.
[11:24] ---
    We won't give up
[11:25] (Flashback) Byakuya
    He'd be like, "Giving up is the
    least logical course of action."
[11:26] ---
    Even if the sky is falling down
[11:29] (Flashback) Byakuya
    So he wouldn't die, even if he was petrified.
[11:30] ---
    Even if the stars crash
    and burn the ground
[11:33] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Even if our generation doesn't
    make it, he'll succeed.
[11:35] ---
    We'll believe our voice
    will reach the universe
[11:39] (Flashback) Byakuya
    He'll save all seven billion people.
[11:42] ---
    We won't give up till the end
[11:46] ---
    We won't give up till we smile again
[11:47] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Someday,
[11:50] (Flashback) Byakuya
    when Senku is revived,
    he's going to need friends.
[11:50] ---
    Cuz we're alive
[11:53] ---
    Cuz we made a promise to the world
[11:55] (Flashback) Byakuya
    We're going to pass along the baton.
[11:59] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Thousands of years into the future.
[12:00] ---
    to the world
[12:20] Suika
    It's such a weird story that
    I have no idea what it means.
[12:25] Chrome
    Yeah. All of humanity turned to
    stone thousands of years ago.
[12:31] Chrome
    You know those stone statues
    we see all over the place?
[12:34] Chrome
    Those are all humans.
[12:36] Chrome
    Six people, including Senku's dad,
    survived because they were above the sky.
[12:42] Chrome
    Everyone in Ishigami Village
    is a descendant of theirs,
[12:44] Chrome
    thousands of years later.
[12:47] Kohaku
    Does that mean we're
    all related to Senku?
[12:54] Senku
    Byakuya and I aren't blood relatives.
[12:56] Senku
    So only legally.
[12:58] Senku
    Besides, we're hundreds of generations apart.
[13:01] Senku
    You can't call us relatives.
[13:03] Ganen
    Hey!
[13:05] Ganen
    What are you doing up there? This is your day!
[13:08] Unmo
    It's a celebration!
[13:10] Unmo
    We have a new village chief!
[13:12] Turquoise
    You two just want an excuse to drink.
[13:15] Ruri
    Shall we all go to the feast together?
[13:22] Genbu
    Drink up, sorcery user!
[13:25] Chrome
    I'm a science user—
[13:27] Chrome
    Dude!
[13:37] Jasper
    Please, Chief.
[13:38] Kokuyo
    I'm not the chief anymore.
[13:41] Jasper
    My apologies.
[13:42] Turquoise
    To think Ruri-sama is a divorcée, though...
[13:47] Kokuyo
    It hasn't been this lively in a while.
[13:50] Suika
    Everyone's smiling. This is fun.
[13:53] Ginro
    Yeah! I'm having fu—
[13:56] Kinro
    We have to guard the bridge.
[14:00] Ginro
    No fair!
[14:02] Gen
    No way, I'm an outsider.
[14:05] Unmo
    Who gives a damn?
[14:07] Unmo
    Come drink with us!
[14:11] Ganen
    Huh? Where's the chief?
[14:21] Ruri
    The story ends with a
    message from Byakuya-sama.
[14:26] Ruri
    I thought you should be
    the only one to hear it.
[14:31] Senku
    I figured it'd be something like that.
[14:49] (Flashback) Dalia
    If we go to the main islands,
    we can find antibiotics.
[14:52] (Flashback) Dalia
    It's our turn to take a risk.
[14:56] Dalia
    If we don't come home, take care of the kids.
[15:19] (Flashback) Lillian
    Let's go back home.
[15:40] (Flashback) Shamil
    It was only pneumonia.
[15:42] (Flashback) Shamil
    Damn it!
[15:45] (Flashback) Shamil
    It was only pneumonia!
[15:56] (Flashback) Shamil
    You look unusually glum, old man.
[16:02] (Flashback) Shamil
    You said it yourself.
[16:04] (Flashback) Shamil
    We have to have fun,
    especially in this situation.
[16:09] (Flashback) Byakuya
    You're right.
[16:16] (Flashback) Shamil
    Humans don't need to have fun to survive.
[16:20] (Flashback) Shamil
    I had fun.
[16:24] (Flashback) Shamil
    We managed to survive because humanity
    had already made it to space.
[16:31] (Flashback) Shamil
    I know this is only after the fact,
[16:33] (Flashback) Shamil
    but I never thought I'd have
    a wife and kids, either.
[16:38] (Flashback) Shamil
    I had so much fun since the
    day we went to space together.
[16:49] (Flashback) Shamil
    There's something I haven't
    had a chance to tell you.
[16:55] (Flashback) Shamil
    That day humanity was petrified...
[16:59] (Flashback) Shamil
    you forced me to have some ramen.
[17:03] (Flashback) Shamil
    That ramen I had in space...
[17:06] (Flashback) Shamil
    It was so good.
[17:10] (Flashback) Shamil
    It was almost hilarious.
[17:13] (Flashback) ---
    Yeah.
[17:15] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Humanity will make it back to the point
    where we'll be eating ramen in space.
[17:21] (Flashback) Byakuya
    I'm sure of it.
[17:54] (Flashback) Lillian
    What's that? A story?
[17:56] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Pearls of wisdom to help
    our descendants live on.
[17:59] (Flashback) Byakuya
    I thought I'd make them
    into stories so it'd be fun.
[18:01] (Flashback) Lillian
    That sure is something a former
    teacher would think of.
[18:05] (Flashback) Byakuya
    It's hard writing stories in English, though.
[18:08] (Flashback) Lillian
    You can write them in Japanese.
[18:10] (Flashback) Lillian
    I want to learn your mother tongue, too.
[18:15] Byakuya
    The Hundred Tales.
[18:17] Byakuya
    Most important is how to manage
    food and how to avoid dangers.
[18:21] Byakuya
    Large beasts and such.
[18:23] Byakuya
    We'll want a story about minerals.
[18:26] Byakuya
    Someone might come along who takes
    an interest in rocks and collects them.
[18:35] Byakuya
    The Hundred Tales, story number one...
[18:38] Byakuya
    I want them to head to Japan,
    where Senku waits.
[18:45] Ruri
    Just as Byakuya-sama had hoped,
[18:48] Ruri
    someone took an interest in
    rocks because of his stories.
[18:51] Senku
    And that's Chrome.
[18:53] Ruri
    Yes.
[18:56] Suika
    The old man wasn't totally useless after all.
[19:09] Ruri
    This is the village cemetery.
[19:12] Ruri
    It's said that these are the graves of
    Byakuya-sama and the other founders.
[19:19] Senku
    They bit the dust 3,700 years ago.
[19:22] Senku
    Even if the story was legit,
    you won't find a single bone.
[19:27] Ruri
    And the last of the Hundred Tales,
    the hundredth story...
[19:32] Byakuya
    ...is a message from me.
[19:35] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Hey, Senku.
[19:37] (Flashback) Byakuya
    If you're listening to this story,
[19:40] (Flashback) Byakuya
    it means you've broken
    through the petrification,
[19:42] (Flashback) Byakuya
    maybe thousands of years from now.
[19:44] (Flashback) Byakuya
    I'm doing great.
[19:46] (Flashback) Byakuya
    I mean, I'm already dead
    by now, but... you know.
[19:50] (Flashback) Byakuya
    I promised you a science gift,
    and that gift is the friends
[19:54] (Flashback) Byakuya
    that the Hundred Tales will connect you with.
[19:59] (Flashback) Byakuya
    The world was pretty fun,
    even after the collapse.
[20:08] (Flashback) Byakuya
    With your science and your friends' help,
[20:13] (Flashback) Byakuya
    I'm certain you can build a
    world that's even more fun.
[20:22] (Flashback) Byakuya
    You won't lose.
[20:24] (Flashback) Byakuya
    You'll rebuild civilization,
    from scratch if you have to,
[20:27] (Flashback) Byakuya
    and you'll save all of humanity.
[20:30] (Flashback) Byakuya
    Senku, I know you can do it.
[20:43] Senku
    I'm going to look around before I go back.
[20:48] Ruri
    Okay.
[20:49] Ruri
    I'll be back at the village.
[20:51] Senku
    Yeah.
[20:57] Senku
    I see.
[20:59] Senku
    That was thousands of years ago, huh?
[21:02] Senku
    That was when I was still
    alone in the darkness,
[21:05] Senku
    counting hundreds of millions of seconds.
[21:11] Senku
    That takes me back.
[21:14] ---
    Man...
[21:16] Senku
    That really takes me back.
[21:34] Senku
    I would have been screwed
    without your science gift.
[21:37] Senku
    I'm happy to receive it,
    thousands of years later.
[21:44] Gen
    No, I only drink cola.
[21:47] Genbu
    Cola?
[21:48] Gen
    I wouldn't be able to talk
    business if I got drunk.
[21:51] Gen
    Now that the whole village is in one
    place, I have a message to deliver.
[21:54] Senku
    Yeah, let's hear it, mentalist.
[21:59] Senku
    What happened in the Tsukasa Empire?
[22:04] Gen
    They're coming.
[22:06] Gen
    Tsukasa-chan and his army.
[22:11] Senku
    It's finally time to show them the
    power of the kingdom of science.
[22:17] Senku
    This is exhilarating.
