    I'm scared.
[00:13] ---
    I'm scared to get
    to the heart of my own mind.

[00:26] ---
    I think you're doing good work here.
[00:30] ---
    But how can I say this...
SIGN    BOYS' FLIGHT
[00:33] ---
    If you don't dig deeper,
[00:35] ---
    the readers won't be
    able to see you in the work.
[00:39] ---
    You're 29, right?
[00:42] ---
    That's kind of a tough fit
    for our magazine.
[00:45] ---
    26 more days until the 2006 World Cup
    begins in Germany...

[00:50] ---
    Every day, the words cross my mind.
    "If I had done this back then..."

[00:55] ---
    But they don't take
    the sincere form of regret.

[00:59] ---
    The words are just an excuse
    that come to mind, then disappear.

[01:04] ---
    I'm scared to get
    to the heart of my own mind.

    I'm going out on a delivery.
[01:19] ---
    Okay. Be careful.
[01:21] ---
    I'm going out on a delivery, too.
[01:24] ---
    Okay, be careful!
[01:27] ---
    Fujinuma, don't eat any pizza on the way.
[01:31] ---
    I don't get it.
[01:32] ---
    What is that, a Gen Y joke?
[01:34] ---
    Wasn't planning to.
[01:39] ---
    That girl says the same thing
    to me every time I see her.

[01:43] ---
    In fact, it's the only thing she's said to me.
[01:46] ---
    It doesn't seem like
    she has any special feelings for me.

[01:50] ---
    Weird girl...
[01:52] ---
    Well, not like I'm interested
    in high school girls...

[02:05] ---
    I'm positive.
[02:06] ---
    It happened again.
[02:08] ---
    Where is it?
[02:10] ---
    What seems out of place?
[02:22] ---
    Hey, trucker! Stop!
[02:25] ---
    Hey! Driver!
[02:35] ---
    F-Fujinuma?
[02:37] ---
    What are you...
[02:42] ---
    Dammit!
[02:44] ---
    I shouldn't have gotten involved!
[02:49] ---
    But...
[02:55] ---
    But...
[03:02] ---
    - Are you okay?!
    - That was close!
[03:16] ---
    What the hell is this?
[03:20] ---
    That thing where my life
    flashes before my eyes...

[03:23] ---
    There, see?
[03:25] ---
    Nothing good comes of getting
    involved with strangers.

[03:29] ---
    Oh well...
[03:31] ---
    My dying doesn't make any difference.
[03:36] ---
    Huh?
[03:42] ---
    His eyes opened.
[03:45] ---
    Good morning, Fujinuma!
[03:47] ---
    You were out for two days!
[03:53] ---
    Katagiri?
[03:55] ---
    Do you know who you are
    and why you're here?
[04:00] ---
    Satoru Fujinuma, 29 years old.
[04:03] ---
    I was chasing a truck
    and got into an accident.
[04:06] ---
    Good! The doctor said
    you hardly suffered any injuries.
[04:09] ---
    It's a miracle!
[04:11] ---
    Do you want me to call someone?
[04:13] ---
    A friend or girlfriend?
[04:17] ---
    Nah. There's nobody
    I want to bother telling.
[04:22] ---
    Snip-snip.
[04:24] ---
    What's that?
[04:25] ---
    A Gen Y joke?
[04:27] ---
    It's like you're covered
    with a thin membrane.
[04:30] ---
    You don't seem like the type
    who opens up to people.
[04:34] ---
    You never laugh either.
[04:35] ---
    But I do kind of see you in a new light.
[04:38] ---
    How's that?
[04:39] ---
    You saved a kid's life, right?
[04:41] ---
    I was there.
[04:43] ---
    They say the truck driver died
    of a heart attack while driving.
[04:48] ---
    I'm surprised you noticed it.
[04:50] ---
    I just got lucky.
[04:51] ---
    After that, the truck
    crashed into a warehouse,
[04:54] ---
    so you and the driver
    were the only casualties.
[04:57] ---
    Casualties...
[04:58] ---
    After I explained everything
    to the manager,
[05:00] ---
    he said, "Tell him not to worry about the bike
    or the car he hit, just come back to work."
[05:06] ---
    Thanks.
[05:08] ---
    You smiled for a second there!
[05:12] ---
    Katagiri, why do you work there?
[05:16] ---
    I'm surprised you got
    right to the heart of it.
[05:19] ---
    Did I?
[05:20] ---
    Yeah. No one's ever
    asked me that before.
[05:23] ---
    I have a dream.
[05:26] ---
    I see.
[05:27] ---
    That's all you're gonna ask me?!
[05:30] ---
    Hey...
[05:31] ---
    When you tell other people
    about your dream...
[05:34] ---
    don't you think, like,
    "But what if it doesn't happen for me?"
[05:37] ---
    I'm not especially
    embarrassed to talk about it.
[05:40] ---
    I feel like if you say
    the words over and over,
[05:44] ---
    it'll actually happen
    somewhere along the line.
[05:46] ---
    Those words...
[05:47] ---
    For some reason, they resonate with me.
[05:51] ---
    But I'm not going to tell you
    what it is, Fujinuma.
[05:54] ---
    It's not like we're close or anything.
[05:58] ---
    Well, I'll tell the nurse you're awake,
    then I'm going home.
[06:01] ---
    Bye-bye.
[06:05] ---
    Weird girl...
[06:09] ---
    I call the phenomenon "Revival."
[06:14] ---
    Even though I know it's not beneficial
    for me, I always get involved.

[06:19] ---
    I usually go back
    between one and five minutes,

[06:23] ---
    where everything is the same as before.
[06:25] ---
    It's always right before
    something bad happens.

[06:29] ---
    I find myself searching for the thing
    that doesn't feel right,

[06:33] ---
    as if someone put me there
    with the order to "Prevent it!"

[06:36] ---
    As a result, I've kept trouble
    from happening again and again.

[06:40] ---
    In most cases, negative
    incidents just come out even.

[06:46] ---
    Once in a while, it turns negative for me.
[07:06] ---
    Welcome home, Satoru.
[07:08] ---
    Mom...
[07:10] ---
    I went to the hospital,
    but you were still sleeping,
[07:13] ---
    which was boring so I came here.
[07:16] ---
    Is your head all right?
[07:19] ---
    Fine.
[07:20] ---
    I was shocked.
[07:21] ---
    I mean, they said
    it was a head-on collision.
[07:26] ---
    I'm going to stay with you for a while.
[07:28] ---
    Why would you do that?
[07:31] ---
    My adorable son's head
    hit a moving vehicle.
[07:34] ---
    The least I can do is watch over him.
[07:35] ---
    I said I'm fine.
[07:38] ---
    And I only have one futon.
[07:40] ---
    There's a sleeping bag in the closet.
    That works for me.
[07:44] ---
    Go to a hotel.
[07:45] ---
    It's a waste of money.
[07:47] ---
    Oh, that's right! I'll reimburse you
    for the hospital charges!
[07:50] ---
    Keep it. We'll use it
    to pay for my room here.
[07:53] ---
    I'm her son,
[07:55] ---
    but even I can't believe she's 52 years old,
    because the woman never changes.

[07:59] ---
    Satoru, can you get to Ueno
    without changing trains?
[08:02] ---
    No. Figures. You're here
    for sightseeing, aren't you?
[08:05] ---
    I have come all the way from Hokkaido.
[08:08] ---
    Besides, I'd get bored having to
    look at your face every day.
[08:11] ---
    You haven't even seen me
    for a full day yet.

[08:14] ---
    Come on, let's eat.
[08:23] ---
    Sorry. I took your futon and TV.
[08:26] ---
    Yeah, don't worry about it.
[08:27] ---
    I'd rather have that
[08:29] ---
    than try to be quiet if I go to the bathroom
    in the middle of the night.
[08:32] ---
    Look, you don't have to tiptoe around me
    if you use the toilet in the middle of the night.
[08:36] ---
    I won't wake up.
[08:38] ---
    Yokai...
[08:39] ---
    On to our next story.
[08:41] ---
    The first-grade girl from Saitama
    who went missing yesterday evening

[08:47] ---
    was found safe and sound
    this morning on a road in Yokohama.

[08:52] ---
    Hey, Satoru...
[08:52] ---
    She was taken to the hospital
    but suffered no injuries.

[08:54] ---
    Do you remember?
[08:55] ---
    What?
[08:56] ---
    What happened in the neighborhood
    when you were in fifth grade.
[08:58] ---
    The Ina Police Station has reported
    that an unemployed man

[09:00] ---
    Your memories are probably hazy.
[09:02] ---
    from Nishi-ku, Yokohama
    was with the girl at the scene.

[09:05] ---
    We tried desperately then
[09:05] ---
    He has been arrested on suspicion
    of abducting a minor.

[09:07] ---
    to get you kids to forget
    even a little of what happened.
[09:12] ---
    Your life was in danger.
[09:21] ---
    When I was in fifth grade...
[09:24] ---
    An abduction...
[09:34] ---
    Two of my classmates went missing.
[09:42] ---
    Go! Go, go!
[09:53] ---
    When I was little, a local guy,
    Yuuki, often played with me.

[10:00] ---
    His name really wasn't Yuuki,
    but that's what I called him

[10:03] ---
    because he'd always say,
    "Yuuki, yuuki! Courage, courage..."

[10:07] ---
    W-Want me to guess about the most
    p-popular kid in your class?

[10:13] ---
    He's cheerful and good at sports.
[10:16] ---
    He speaks his mind
    and sometimes screws around,

[10:19] ---
    but is serious
    when it comes to one thing.

[10:23] ---
    That's incredible.
[10:24] ---
    Popular people are usually that guy.
[10:27] ---
    W-What if you tried imitating him?
[10:30] ---
    In one or two areas.
[10:32] ---
    Just as much as you can, without being
    embarrassed, but with courage.

[10:39] ---
    Six months after the disappearances,
    Jun Shiratori was arrested

[10:44] ---
    as a serial kidnapper and murderer.
[10:46] ---
    It was Yuuki.

    Well, you can have curry for days.
[11:03] ---

    This is why I told you not to run.

    What's gonna happen?

    Mom... Would you look around?
[11:47] ---
    Don't you... have a weird feeling?
[11:51] ---
    What are you talking about?
[11:54] ---
    Come to think of it, you once told me
    the same thing a long time ago.
[11:59] ---
    Did I?
[12:00] ---
    It was about a small fire back then.
[12:07] ---
    Was he... looking at me?
[12:21] ---
    Nothing happened?

    I do from today.

    But are you fighting?
[12:42] ---
    No.

    Your name is Airi?
[12:46] ---
    I'm making curry for dinner.
    Would you like to eat over?
[12:49] ---
    I am Airi Katagiri!

    I'll help you make it, too!

    You drew manga?!
[13:06] ---
    You're surprised?
[13:07] ---
    No, not at all.
[13:08] ---
    It's true. You've got
    your own Wikitanika entry.
[13:10] ---
    Don't do a search on me.
[13:12] ---
    Why not? It's great!
[13:15] ---
    Well, let's eat.
[13:17] ---
    It's not great. That's why
    I don't want you to do it.

[13:19] ---
    Thank you for the meal!
[13:23] ---
    It's delicious!
[13:24] ---
    Thank you.
[13:26] ---
    At first I thought you were too young
    to be his girlfriend, but you're not his girlfriend.
[13:29] ---
    Too bad, you're a good cook.
[13:31] ---
    Sorry we're not dating.
[13:34] ---
    To me, Fujinuma is, how can I put it?
[13:37] ---
    A friend I can respect.
[13:40] ---
    What? Is it too spicy?
[13:42] ---
    No, it's good.
[13:46] ---
    Thank you again!
[13:50] ---
    Well, I'll give you a lift to the station.
[13:52] ---
    You're going home already?
[13:53] ---
    You should spend the night.
[13:55] ---
    Katagiri is a high school student.
[13:59] ---
    Thanks for having me over
    for dinner, Satoru.
[14:03] ---
    No problem.
[14:04] ---
    Just keep an eye out for cops.
[14:06] ---
    Sure.
[14:14] ---
    Welcome home.
[14:17] ---
    She's my co-worker.
[14:18] ---
    Don't look at her
    as potential wife material.
[14:22] ---
    You're dense.
[14:24] ---
    You have a chance with that girl.
[14:26] ---
    She said she respects you.
[14:27] ---
    I'm telling you, it's not like that!
[14:30] ---
    She was just being polite.
    Don't take it seriously!
[14:32] ---
    That Airi girl isn't the diplomatic type.
[14:37] ---
    Oh, by the way, the landlady
    came over for the rent.
[14:40] ---
    Is that right?
[14:42] ---
    Satoru... About this afternoon...
[14:46] ---
    In the supermarket parking lot...
[14:49] ---

[15:10] ---
    I remember.
[15:12] ---
    That girl was one of my classmates,
    one who was abducted 18 years ago.

[15:19] ---
    Kayo Hinazuki.
[15:21] ---
    She was always at the park alone.
[15:23] ---
    It's not like we were friends, but...
[15:31] ---
    That was the last time I saw Hinazuki.
[15:37] ---
    I could've saved her!
[15:40] ---
    If I'd said, "Let's walk home together,"
    Hinazuki would still be...

[15:45] ---
    That's the thought
    I wanted to forget the most.

[15:49] ---
    And Mom probably really did
    try to erase it from my memory.

    If you don't dig deeper,
[15:56] ---
    the readers won't be
    able to see you in the work.

[16:03] ---
    "Wa" on the plate means it's a rental.
[16:06] ---
    That was definitely
    an attempted abduction.

[16:09] ---
    Did he change his mind
    because he saw me?

[16:12] ---
    He hid his face when our eyes met.
[16:15] ---
    He knew me.
[16:18] ---
    And I know him from someplace.

    That case isn't closed yet.

    I'm sure it wasn't Yuuki!
[17:52] ---
    It wasn't Yuuki, Mom!
[17:55] ---
    I should have believed him then.
[17:59] ---
    Even if the police didn't...
[18:02] ---
    I should've believed him.

[18:27] ---
    Well, I'm off! See you tomorrow!

    Yes!
