**[00:02] ---**
Satoru Fujinuma,
**[00:03] ---**
you're under arrest for murder
and attemped murder resulting from arson.
**[00:23] ---**
*Him!*
**[00:28] ---**
*It can't end here.*
**[00:36] ---**
*There's something...*
**[00:40] ---**
*I still have to do.*
**[00:48] ---**
Hey.
**[00:50] ---**
*Go back...*
**[00:52] ---**
*Go back!*
**[00:55] ---**
*Just once more!*
**[00:57] ---**
*Please!*
**[01:00] ---**
*Please!*
**[01:02] ---**
Go back!
**[01:31] ---**
I'm glad I mustered
the courage and came here.
**[01:37] ---**
I'm really...
**[01:39] ---**
glad.
**[01:41] ---**
Are you stupid?
**[01:43] ---**
Yeah.
**[01:44] ---**
Satoru!
**[01:45] ---**
Hinazuki!
**[01:46] ---**
Hey there!
**[01:47] ---**
I finished what I had to do early.
**[01:50] ---**
Sorry we're late.
**[01:53] ---**
Are we in the way?
**[01:54] ---**
Of course not!
**[01:55] ---**
- Right, Hinazuki?
- Right.
**[01:57] ---**
*I have to pull it off.*
**[01:58] ---**
Satoru is a gentleman!
**[02:00] ---**
*This time for sure.*
**[02:02] ---**
*Definitely this time.*
**[02:04] ---**
*Doesn't have to be graceful,*
**[02:06] ---**
*but I can't have any regrets.*
**[02:08] ---**
*Because if I fail,
I'm not getting another chance.*
**[02:12] ---**
*This is my final Revival.*

**[03:46] ---**
I'm starving.
**[03:48] ---**
Wanna get a bite?
**[03:49] ---**
I don't have any money.
**[03:51] ---**
I just got my allowance.
**[03:54] ---**
Why don't we have
okonomiyaki on me?
**[03:56] ---**
- Yeah!
- Nice one, Satoru!
**[03:57] ---**
All right!
**[03:59] ---**
By the way, Satoru...
**[04:01] ---**
Did you read that book I lent you
the week before last?
**[04:04] ---**
Poe's "The Switched Man."
**[04:06] ---**
Sorry. I haven't read it yet.
**[04:09] ---**
*I don't remember that.*
**[04:11] ---**
*A book he lent me 18 years ago...*
**[04:14] ---**
The story's really interesting.
**[04:16] ---**
Read it when you get home.
**[04:20] ---**
I'm back!
**[04:22] ---**
Welcome home, Satoru.
**[04:24] ---**
Hold on, dinner will be ready in a minute.
**[04:31] ---**
What's wrong, Satoru?
Don't just stand there...
**[04:37] ---**
Did you have a fight with Kayo?
**[04:40] ---**
No. I'm fine.
**[04:43] ---**
I see.
**[04:44] ---**
Okay, let's eat.
**[04:51] ---**
Sorry, Mom. Remember this.
**[04:55] ---**
The fact is, you can go to Ueno
without changing trains.
**[05:00] ---**
What's that supposed to mean?
***SIGN*** February 29th, 1988

*February 29th, 1988.*
**[05:09] ---**
*The day before Kayo Hinazuki becomes
the first victim of a kidnapping serial killer.*
**[05:14] ---**
*It's the third time I've met this day.*
**[05:17] ---**
Satoru's got guts!
**[05:19] ---**
*That's what he said last time,
albeit a day early now.*

to the wind this time.*
**[05:29] ---**
Kenya...
**[05:30] ---**
Um, sorry.
**[05:32] ---**
I guess I lost the book you lent me.
**[05:35] ---**
Satoru, can I talk to you out in the hall?
**[05:39] ---**
Don't worry about the book.
**[05:42] ---**
It never existed.
**[05:46] ---**
Satoru, let me say this first.
**[05:48] ---**
Recently... How can I put it?
**[05:50] ---**
I've seen you being serious...
**[05:52] ---**
and it makes me happy.
**[05:56] ---**
Before, you used to pretend,
**[05:57] ---**
even though you didn't care
at all about other people.
**[06:01] ---**
You did the best you could then,
in your own right...
**[06:04] ---**
but I like you better now.
**[06:08] ---**
Except I want an answer
to this nagging suspicion I have.
**[06:15] ---**
Satoru...
**[06:17] ---**
who are you?
**[06:20] ---**
It's like you've become another person.
**[06:23] ---**
Or more like, another
personality has been added.
**[06:30] ---**
I realized you'd changed the day
I saw you looking at Hinazuki.
**[06:35] ---**
I'd noticed Hinazuki's cuts
and bruises a long time ago.
**[06:40] ---**
But I couldn't do anything.
**[06:43] ---**
I always just...
**[06:45] ---**
looked on from a distance.
**[06:48] ---**
And yet you addressed the issue
right in front of my eyes.
**[06:55] ---**
It was like a will that said,
**[06:56] ---**
"This is what you're gonna do"
had possessed your body
**[06:59] ---**
and put me to shame too.
**[07:03] ---**
Satoru, who the hell are you?
**[07:07] ---**
*I...*
**[07:09] ---**
*I...*
**[07:12] ---**
*I'm...*
**[07:15] ---**
...a superhero.
**[07:19] ---**
Or, I want to be.
**[07:29] ---**
You're Satoru after all.
**[07:32] ---**
Kenya...
**[07:34] ---**
Hinazuki is going to be murdered.
**[07:36] ---**
I saw where she's physically abused.
**[07:38] ---**
I swear I'll stop it next time.
**[07:43] ---**
Satoru, you don't become a superhero
after achieving results.
**[07:49] ---**
You already are one.
**[07:51] ---**
Let me help you.
**[07:52] ---**
I want to become one, too.
**[07:54] ---**
A superhero.
**[08:02] ---**
I thought you hated Hinazuki.
**[08:05] ---**
Like how people have an aversion
to others similar to themselves.
**[08:07] ---**
Yeah. I did hate her.
**[08:10] ---**
But I was also attracted
to something about her.
**[08:14] ---**
I kind of get it.
**[08:19] ---**
Satoru, Kenya...
**[08:21] ---**
Stand in the hallway with those buckets.
**[08:25] ---**
Superheroes often get
the short end of the stick.
**[08:29] ---**
*Tell me about it.*
**[08:31] ---**
I need to make a stop.
**[08:33] ---**
Hiromi, Kenya and Hinazuki, will you
wait for me at the children's center?
**[08:37] ---**
- Sure.
- Okay.
**[08:41] ---**
MARCH
**[08:42] ---**
*Tomorrow, March 1st,*
**[08:44] ---**
*Hinazuki will be safe as long as
she isn't left alone at the park.*
**[08:48] ---**
*The problem is March 2nd,
the day of the birthday party.*
**[08:54] ---**
*I want Yuuki to have an alibi.*
**[08:57] ---**
Yuuki, is your dad's bedroom
on the first floor?
**[09:01] ---**
Y-Yeah.
**[09:03] ---**
Facing the main street.
**[09:05] ---**
Why?
**[09:06] ---**
Oh, I was just thinking
it was probably noisy at night.
**[09:10] ---**
N-Not really...
**[09:12] ---**
*All right. One more thing...*
**[09:15] ---**
Yuuki...
**[09:17] ---**
Do you sometimes see Kayo Hinazuki?
**[09:20] ---**
W-Why?
**[09:23] ---**
Recently, she's become
a part of our group.
**[09:26] ---**
R-Really?
**[09:29] ---**
No wonder I haven't seen her
around for several days.
**[09:41] ---**
Yes! Kayo!
**[09:43] ---**
That's the best damn possible result!
**[09:45] ---**
*That was the first time I'd heard Yuuki
uttering something close to a curse word.*
**[09:52] ---**
S-See you, Satoru!
**[09:54] ---**
See you!
**[09:58] ---**
*I'm sure the real killer
happened to see him with Hinazuki*
**[10:01] ---**
*and decided then to use him as a patsy.*
**[10:04] ---**
*Yuuki, wait for me.*
**[10:06] ---**
*I'm gonna prevent the murder
from ever happening.*

Over here!
**[10:22] ---**
Sorry, Satoru!
**[10:24] ---**
We all came over here.
**[10:25] ---**
Yeah! Get in on this, Satoru!
**[10:32] ---**
*I guess three people can't play Othello.*
**[10:35] ---**
*I have to be careful.*
**[10:37] ---**
*If I don't avoid drastic changes like this,*
**[10:39] ---**
*I won't be able to make predictions
through March 2nd.*

I'm back!

**[10:54] ---**
SATORU & HINAZUKI
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
**[10:54] ---**
Satoru! Hinazuki!
**[10:56] ---**
Happy birthday!
***SIGN*** March 2nd 1988
**[10:59] ---**
*March 1st was X-day
and it went just like last time.*
**[11:07] ---**
*Beginning with my actions today,
I'm going to change the future.*
**[11:11] ---**
I forgot something at school!
**[11:13] ---**
You're going now?
**[11:14] ---**
Is it something you need right away?
**[11:16] ---**
Bye!
**[11:17] ---**
*I know it looks weird,*
**[11:19] ---**
*but this isn't the time
to worry about that.*
***SIGN*** *I'll kill you*
**[11:34] ---**
*The coup de grace!*
**[11:36] ---**
W-What was that?!
**[11:38] ---**
Hey! Who did that?!
**[11:40] ---**
*This way the police will serve
as Yuuki's alibi for tonight.*
**[11:40] ---**
Is somebody out there?!
**[11:42] ---**
Hey! Come out!
**[11:55] ---**
*I'll get her out of the way.*
**[12:00] ---**
*If I keep her away from Hinazuki...*
**[12:08] ---**
*If I just take you out of the picture...*
**[12:16] ---**
Keep your cool, Satoru.
**[12:19] ---**
It'd be really bad if she died.
**[12:22] ---**
It'd be even worse if you were put away
for it, unable to help anyone.
**[12:29] ---**
Satoru...
**[12:31] ---**
I've been following you
for the past two days.
**[12:35] ---**
You've been desperate to save Hinazuki.
**[12:38] ---**
That's why I thought you'd be in danger.
**[12:42] ---**
Thanks, Kenya.
**[12:44] ---**
It's just that I thought this was the day
Hinazuki was most at risk.
**[12:50] ---**
Satoru, you did something disturbing
before coming here too.
**[12:54] ---**
What was that?
**[12:56] ---**
T-That was to get the police over
to that house for another reason.
**[13:08] ---**
I've decided. Kenya, I want your help.
**[13:12] ---**
Let's get the police to stop
that mother's abuse.
**[13:16] ---**
Satoru... It could cause quite a stir.
**[13:19] ---**
That's what I'm hoping for.
**[13:21] ---**
Have you thought
about how it'll all shake out?
**[13:23] ---**
Kenya, I just came up with something.
**[13:26] ---**
I'll think about that now.
**[13:29] ---**
But I don't care
if I have to commit a crime
**[13:30] ---**
or if I'm caught along the way.
**[13:32] ---**
*I don't even care if they lock me up.*
**[13:35] ---**
No matter how it ends,
**[13:37] ---**
anything is better than Hinazuki dying.
**[13:40] ---**
Don't do anything
that'll get you arrested, Satoru.
**[13:44] ---**
Your mom would be devastated.
**[13:47] ---**
Nah.
**[13:48] ---**
I think my mom would say "Well done."
**[13:51] ---**
Actually, I can picture that.
**[13:54] ---**
Okay. I'm in.
**[13:57] ---**
All right, I'm gonna drop Hinazuki off.
**[13:59] ---**
Go ahead!
**[14:00] ---**
We'll clean up here.
**[14:04] ---**
*This time I didn't forget to bring my jacket
and work gloves when I left the house.*
**[14:09] ---**
- Hinazuki...
- Fujinu...
**[14:11] ---**
Listen...
**[14:13] ---**
Can I abduct you right now?
**[14:21] ---**
Are you stupid?
**[14:23] ---**
Yeah.
**[14:24] ---**
That's why this is the only
thing I could think of.
**[14:31] ---**
Sure.
**[14:36] ---**
That's what I thought you'd say.

This is it.
**[14:46] ---**
A retired school bus.
**[14:49] ---**
I hear it was the clubhouse
for Izumi Elementary's ice hockey club.
**[14:54] ---**
Hi. So you two came.
**[14:56] ---**
Yeah. Are you sure this is okay?
**[14:58] ---**
Yep. They got a new bus last year,
so this is just used for storage.
**[15:05] ---**
Let's open the air vents
before lighting the stove.
**[15:11] ---**
It's rusted out.
**[15:17] ---**
Don't make it obvious
people are in here.
**[15:19] ---**
Okay.
**[15:24] ---**
- Awesome...
- Wow...
**[15:26] ---**
This is a great hideout.
**[15:29] ---**
I'd like to live here myself.
**[15:31] ---**
Although it doesn't have a bath...
**[15:33] ---**
Living in a big house
doesn't guarantee happiness.
**[15:39] ---**
Even so, I have to go home.
**[15:42] ---**
I'll see you, Hinazuki.
**[15:43] ---**
I'm going home now too,
but I'll be back in the middle of the night.
**[15:46] ---**
I'll knock three times.
**[15:51] ---**
Thank you, Satoru, Kenya.
**[15:54] ---**
No need to thank me.
We're friends, Kayo.
**[15:57] ---**
I promise we'll protect you, Kayo.
**[16:06] ---**
Ow!
**[16:06] ---**
"We'll protect you, Kayo." Geez.
**[16:08] ---**
I wanted to crawl in a hole
with your line, too.
**[16:11] ---**
"We're friends, Kayo."
**[16:13] ---**
Yeah. It is hard calling her that.
**[16:15] ---**
I think I'll go with "Hina" instead.
**[16:16] ---**
You call her Kayo, Satoru.
**[16:21] ---**
Thanks.
**[16:22] ---**
Like I said, there's no need for thanks.
**[16:24] ---**
Besides, we haven't gotten
to the hard part yet.
**[16:27] ---**
That's right.
**[16:29] ---**
Listen, if this goes public,
**[16:32] ---**
act like you don't know anything.
**[16:34] ---**
Right.
**[16:40] ---**
That certainly took a long time.
**[16:42] ---**
Sorry.
**[16:43] ---**
We stopped somewhere along the way
**[16:45] ---**
and talked about this and that.
**[16:49] ---**
Did you get a call from Hinazuki's mom?
**[16:52] ---**
Nope, no calls.
**[16:55] ---**
Oh, that's right.
**[16:56] ---**
I'm leaving early tomorrow,
so you can go to bed.
**[17:00] ---**
This'll do for dinner.
**[17:23] ---**
Come in.
**[17:27] ---**
Were you up?
**[17:29] ---**
I couldn't sleep.
**[17:30] ---**
I don't blame you.
**[17:32] ---**
Are you hungry?
**[17:41] ---**
This is good.
**[17:45] ---**
Cup noodles in the middle
of the night is good, isn't it?
**[17:48] ---**
It's the first time
I've had a night like this.
**[17:51] ---**
Oh. I see.
**[17:56] ---**
I'm planning a camping trip with Kenya
and the others for the summer.
**[18:00] ---**
Go with us, Kayo.
**[18:02] ---**
I don't know if I'll be able to.
**[18:04] ---**
Sure you will!
**[18:07] ---**
Then okay.
**[18:19] ---**
Wake up.
**[18:21] ---**
It's morning.
**[18:29] ---**
Good thing I stopped by.
**[18:31] ---**
We have to get out of here
before the Izumi Elementary kids come.

**[18:51] ---**
Nothing's happened yet.
**[18:54] ---**
What do you think?
**[18:55] ---**
Has Hinazuki's mother called the police?
**[18:58] ---**
My guess is she hasn't looked for her yet.
**[19:02] ---**
*The last time it was March 2nd,*
**[19:04] ---**
*Hinazuki got back home before 9:00 PM.*

*Her mother and her mother's
boyfriend physically abused her.*
**[19:09] ---**
*They shut her up in the shed,
but she disappeared before 11:00 PM.*
**[19:14] ---**
*At 12:30 AM on the 3rd,

**[19:18] ---**
*Just before dawn on the 3rd,

I'm sorry for getting you

**[19:51] ---**
No matter what form it takes,
I'm touched that you're counting on me.
**[19:55] ---**
And even if I went home, no one else
would be there until 8:00 PM.
**[19:59] ---**
Sorry to you too, Kayo.

Shutting you up in here...
**[20:02] ---**
It's okay. I've never had so much fun.
**[20:06] ---**
I'm glad I mustered
the courage to come here.
**[20:09] ---**
I'm gonna stop by your house
tomorrow morning, Kayo.
**[20:11] ---**
Her mother will have no choice
but to call the police.
**[20:14] ---**
Right.
**[20:15] ---**
Hey, I understand
what's going on more or less,
**[20:18] ---**
but what happens in the end?
**[20:20] ---**
Don't worry. I'll take full responsibility.
**[20:25] ---**
Are you stupid?
**[20:27] ---**
If I instigated it
and you guys then helped me...
**[20:35] ---**
...no one will be to blame, right? I win.
**[20:40] ---**
You're right.
**[20:42] ---**
*That had been my blind spot.*
**[20:44] ---**
*On the way home, Kenya said,*
**[20:45] ---**
*"I bet you hadn't thought of that, Satoru."*
**[20:49] ---**
*"You're right," I answered
and continued,*
**[20:52] ---**
"Someone like that is a hero to me."
**[21:10] ---**
*Is that Satoru?*
