[00:10] (Flashback) Dad
Sorry, Shiori.
[00:13] (Flashback) Dad
Make sure you choose the right
parents in your next life.
[00:19] (Flashback) Mom
Honey!
[00:20] (Flashback) Mom
What are you doing?!
[00:23] (Flashback) Mom
L-Let go of her! I'll stab you if you don't!
[00:26] (Flashback) Dad
Do it if you even have the guts!
[00:29] (Flashback) Dad
What's the matter? Stab me!
[00:31] (Flashback) Mom
Stop!
[00:38] (Flashback) Dad
You're always like that, aren't you?!
[00:41] (Flashback) Dad
You nag but don't do anythin'
when it matters most!
[00:47] (Flashback) Dad
You always say how you're doin' your best,
[00:54] (Flashback) Dad
but you actually never
do anything, do ya?!
[00:57] (Flashback) Mom
Stop...
[01:01] (Flashback) Dad
Are you in pain?
[01:03] (Flashback) Dad
Well, it's nothin' compared
to what I'm feelin'!

[01:35] Ichiru
Now, it's been five months since
you came to this academy.
[01:39] Ichiru
As per our conversation upon hiring you,
[01:41] Ichiru
you are allowed to resign from
the position if you wish.
[01:43] Ichiru
You may continue teaching,
or leave the academy.
[01:47] Ichiru
Have you made your decision?
[01:49] Shiori
Do you mind if I ask you something?
[01:52] Ichiru
Go ahead.
[01:53] Shiori
Does this academy actually need my service?
[01:56] Ichiru
That is why we hired you.
SIGN Human Resources
Shiori Arisaka
[01:59] Ichiru
Not to mention that we took you in knowing
the reason for your application.
[02:04] Shiori
How much do you know?
[02:07] Ichiru
Everything.
[02:08] Shiori
I... see.
[02:12] Shiori
If you still need me while knowing
everything about me,
[02:17] Shiori
then I'll choose to stay here.
[02:20] Ichiru
Are you sure?
[02:22] Shiori
Yes.
[02:23] Ichiru
You cannot quit once you're officially hired.
[02:28] Ichiru
And worst-case scenario, you'll be silenced.
[02:30] Shiori
Does that mean I'm going to be killed?!
[02:33] Ichiru
It's only a possibility. No staff
members have actually been killed.
[02:38] Nogami
There was a suicide, however.
[02:39] Ichiru
Oh yeah, huh.
[02:41] Nogami
Also, a fatal accident.
[02:42] Ichiru
Two... no, three if I remember correctly.
[02:45] Shiori
That's a lot!
[02:47] Ichiru
It is, isn't it?
[02:48] Shiori
Why are you smiling?!
[02:50] Ichiru
And you're okay with that, correct?
[02:51] Announce
Next stop is Mihama Academy. Mihama Academy.
[02:56] Shiori
That's my stop, I'm getting off!
[03:01] Haruto
I see. So you've officially
become faculty?
[03:05] Shiori
Yes. I hope we can keep up this
good relationship between us.
[03:09] Chris
Haruto-san, I can help you
organize the documents,
[03:12] Chris
but you must sign them yourself.
[03:14] Haruto
I know.
[03:16] Shiori
You look busy.
[03:18] Haruto
There is a major mission abroad coming
up, so we're preparing for it.
[03:23] Shiori
Oh, the principal ordered me to do
personal interviews with the students,
[03:28] Shiori
but is that also part of it?
[03:30] Haruto
It's part of the process where
we do a psychiatric evaluation
[03:33] Haruto
under the name "personal interview."
[03:35] Shiori
Huh?
[03:36] Haruto
It's necessary when we must
go on a tough mission.
[03:39] Shiori
Am I qualified to do it, though?
[03:42] Haruto
Don't think too hard about it.
[03:45] Haruto
You just have to rat them out when
you think: "Wow, they're crazy."
[03:49] Shiori
What'll happen to the students, then?
[03:51] Haruto
They will be unqualified for the mission.
[03:54] Shiori
That is a lot of responsibility!
[03:56] Haruto
That's what it means to
officially become one of us.
[04:00] Haruto
It'll help us if you can watch the
students even more from now on.
[04:06] Shiori
Sure...
[04:08] Tohka
And what's gone over you?
[04:12] Gumi
Do you mean, "What's come over you"?
[04:15] Tohka
I know that.
[04:16] Tohka
My question is: Why are you
here at our field training?
[04:20] Shiori
Because I was told to keep
an eye on my students.
[04:24] Tohka
You'd better not blame us for anything
that happens to you, then.
[04:30] Tohka
Distance: 180 meters. Wind velocity
three meters, right crosswind.
[04:38] Tohka
Hit.
[04:39] Tohka
Next. Distance: 320 meters, five meters right.
[04:44] Shiori
Uh, where is it?
[04:47] Gumi
Ten meters left from the previous target.
Look up and you'll see.
[04:53] Gumi
However, that is...
[04:57] Shiori
Oh...
[04:59] Gumi
Am I allowed to shoot at it?
[05:01] Tohka
That's my order, so you
just have to follow it.
[05:04] Gumi
But that's...
[05:06] Tohka
Even if it's a child,
if they have a weapon on them
[05:09] Tohka
and are acting hostile to us,
they are our enemy.
[05:12] Tohka
So shoot at it.
[05:15] Tohka
You must always obey orders.
[05:17] Tohka
If you disobey me, it means you could've
refused to shoot anyone you've ever shot.
[05:24] Tohka
You won't be able to make the excuse that you
killed them because you were ordered to.
[05:28] Tohka
Can you bear the responsibility for all the
lives that you took away so far?!
[05:33] Gumi
I'm going to shoot.
[05:40] Haruto
It's always hard the first time.
[05:43] Haruto
But the reality is, even if
the enemy is a child soldier,
[05:47] Haruto
your life is at stake because of them.
[05:49] Shiori
I understand, but...
[05:52] Haruto
I must say that I'm impressed.
[05:55] Haruto
Because you stayed with them until the end,
[05:58] Haruto
and you're still watching them
do their target practice.
[06:02] Shiori
That's because...
[06:04] Shiori
They're the ones suffering the
most from pulling the trigger.
[06:10] Shiori
Not me.
[06:13] Haruto
You're right.
SIGN Potato
[06:15] Izumi
What do you think? It's lighter
than it looks, isn't it?
[06:18] Rena
It's nice that it's light,
but it feels off-balance.
[06:23] Izumi
Wanna change it to a micro dot, then?
[06:26] Rena
Single lens, huh?
[06:29] Maki
That one is too big for you to handle.
[06:32] Maki
Wanna try mine?
[06:34] Izumi
That's not a good idea.
[06:36] Izumi
Your gun is adjusted to your
personal habits.
[06:40] Maki
Huh, is that how it works?
[06:43] Taiga
I see.
[06:45] Maki
What?
[06:46] Taiga
What is that?
[06:48] Maki
You've never had this before?
It's chocolate covered peanuts.
[06:51] Taiga
Are they sweet?
[06:52] Maki
Wanna try some?
[06:55] Maki
Here.
[06:58] Taiga
This is great! It's raising
my morale right now!
[07:02] Maki
Is it? Have some more.
[07:07] Shiori
It looks like you're great friends
with Taiga-san, Inohara-san.
[07:11] Maki
I-It's not like that!
[07:14] Maki
She just started following
me around, that's all.
[07:18] Taiga
Yes, that's right.
[07:20] Taiga
Inohara is tall and strong.
[07:22] Taiga
Above all, I love her big breasts!
[07:25] Maki
Is that supposed to be a compliment?
[07:27] Taiga
Of course.
[07:29] Taiga
Busty women have big hearts.
[07:33] Taiga
You can be a little crude,
barbaric, and pugnacious.
[07:36] Taiga
But you won't do anything illogical!
[07:39] Taiga
I want to become a woman like you, Inohara!
[07:42] Maki
S-S-Stop! Don't look at me like that!
[07:47] Izumi
There she goes.
[07:49] Shiori
An innocent child's eyes
can be a weapon at times.
[07:54] Haruto
Our break is about to end anyway.
[07:56] Shiori
I'll clean up after us.
[07:59] Taiga
Haruto, do you have a moment?
[08:01] Haruto
Yes?
[08:05] Haruto
It's a government-issued one
I used a while back.
[08:08] Haruto
Will this do?
[08:11] Taiga
Yes, this is nice!
[08:13] Taiga
Readability is pivotal
out in the battlefield.
[08:16] Haruto
It's yours, then. Please make use of it.
[08:20] Taiga
Thanks. I won't need this one anymore.
[08:24] Shiori
Huh?
[08:25] Shiori
What? You shouldn't throw
things away like that!
[08:28] Taiga
Why not? Oh, was it not
burnable trash?
[08:32] Shiori
That is not the issue here!
[08:34] Taiga
You are welcome to have it
if you like it so much.
[08:38] Taiga
Oh, it's already the time for housekeeping.
[08:41] Taiga
See you.
[08:41] Shiori
O-Oh, um!
[08:43] Haruto
Off she goes.
[08:45] Shiori
Her watch...
[08:46] Haruto
Why don't you have it?
[08:48] Shiori
But I bet it's an expensive watch.
[08:50] Haruto
About 20 million, perhaps.
[08:55] Izumi
Here, I finished it up for you.
[08:57] Shiori
This is...
[08:59] Shiori
a shotgun?
[09:01] Izumi
Oh, I see that you can distinguish
different types of firearms now, Sensei.
[09:06] Rena
I felt bad about being the
only one with new guns,
[09:10] Rena
so I asked Master to make you one.
[09:12] Maki
You didn't have to do that.
[09:14] Izumi
So you say, but I see your
lips making a smile.
[09:17] Rena
Okay, then! Shall we begin
our training for the day?
[09:23] Murasaki
Push down like this.
[09:26] Rena
I see. If a gun is too big for your hand,
[09:28] Rena
you use your middle
finger to pull the trigger.
[09:31] Rena
As expected from a ninja.
[09:33] Murasaki
No, being a ninja doesn't matter.
[09:35] Taiga
Fukami, will this allow me to
be a quick shooter like you?
[09:39] Rena
Huh? Hmm, not at the moment.
[09:44] Rena
But if your height gets over
170 centimeters and you develop big boobs,
[09:48] Rena
then I'll be no match for you in the future.
[09:51] Taiga
Really?
[09:52] Rena
It doesn't matter whether you're
a fast shooter or not, though.
[09:57] Rena
What's more important is to know the
right reasons and timing for shooting.
[10:03] Rena
It's a psychological thing,
but I value those things over speed.
[10:08] Taiga
When and for what...
[10:11] Murasaki
Family, a lover, friends,
and for the country.
[10:15] Murasaki
There are tons of reasons why
you must pull the trigger.
[10:18] Murasaki
But it makes it more meaningful if
you pull it for the sake of others.
[10:21] Taiga
What am I supposed to do?
[10:24] Rena
Just do your best at what you
can like you always have.
[10:28] Taiga
But that's not enough!
[10:31] Taiga
Even if you or others may
acknowledge what I do...
[10:34] Taiga
Instructor Arisaka!
[10:35] Shiori
Y-Yes?!
[10:37] Taiga
I will never be able to go out into the
field if you don't think I'm ready for it.
[10:41] Taiga
So be honest. How do you assess me?
[10:52] Shiori
I'm against the idea of making children fight
on battlefields with firearms.
[10:57] Taiga
Is that because I'm young?
[10:59] Shiori
Huh?
[11:00] Taiga
Or is it because I'm a woman?
[11:03] Taiga
Are you going to take away my free choice
of employment for such a trivial reason?
[11:07] Shiori
I don't know how to respond
when you put it like that.
[11:11] Shiori
How do you decide on the deployment
of each mission, Aoi-kun?
[11:15] Haruto
First and foremost,
if they can kill a person.
[11:19] Haruto
Not for themselves, but for others.
[11:23] Haruto
On that part, I recognize Taiga-sama for
protecting Chris while putting herself at risk.
[11:30] Taiga
Haruto actually allowed me
to join the next mission.
[11:32] Shiori
What? You did?!
[11:35] Haruto
Is there a problem?
[11:37] Shiori
Of course there is!
[11:38] Chris
That's right!
[11:40] Chris
There are two problems with
Taiga-sama joining our missions.
[11:45] Chris
First: Should children commit murders?
[11:48] Chris
A question involving both ethics
and common sense.
[11:52] Chris
Regarding this issue, we have no
choice but to convince you
[11:56] Chris
that she will only be allowed to
fire her weapon in self-defense
[12:00] Chris
as she will be focused on treating the injured.
[12:03] Chris
Second: Risking Taiga-sama's safety and
the possibility of her losing her life.
[12:09] Chris
We'll deal with this by lending
her a special device.
[12:13] Chris
That is called the FAM.
[12:15] Shiori
FAM?
[12:16] Chris
She'll wear a new bulletproof
vest made of special fibers,
[12:20] Chris
along with a conventional core protector.
[12:22] Chris
We'll spread equipment
she'll need for first aid
[12:24] Chris
on her knapsack and pouches that
are attached all over her body.
[12:26] Chris
And once we attach a helmet and
eyewear to her, we get...
[12:29] Chris
a fully-armored maid, FAM for short!
[12:33] Shiori
A-A heavy-armored maid...
[12:35] Taiga
What do you say?
[12:36] Taiga
This will drastically lower the possibility
of me being injured or killed.
[12:39] Taiga
Will you still not allow me to go out
into the field, Instructor Arisaka?!
[12:44] Shiori
Um...
[12:47] Haruto
You still can't decide?
[12:49] Shiori
Why is everyone so eager to
take on dangerous tasks?
[12:54] Haruto
You're asking such a
fundamental question now?
[12:57] Shiori
I know that those girls don't
enjoy killing other people.
[13:04] Haruto
Arisaka-sensei, do you have something
[13:07] Haruto
that you want to protect, even if
that means killing another person?
[13:09] Shiori
Huh? Another person...
[13:16] Haruto
Hmm?
[13:18] Haruto
Arisaka-sensei?
[13:24] Haruto
Oh, Sensei! Arisaka-sensei! Are you okay?
[13:27] Haruto
Sensei! Sensei!
[13:36] Shiori
Oh!
[13:37] Haruto
You surprised me when you suddenly fainted.
[13:39] Shiori
I'm terribly sorry.
[13:41] Haruto
Oh, no. I asked you a tough
question too, didn't I?
[13:46] Shiori
Um, Aoi-kun... Do you know
why I came to this academy?
[13:52] Haruto
Yes, I've heard.
[14:01] Shiori
Aoi-kun, do you mind listening
to me talk to myself for a bit?
[14:06] Haruto
Sure.
[14:08] Shiori
My father was an ordinary salaryman.
[14:11] Shiori
That was, until the company
he worked for went bankrupt.
[14:14] Shiori
What happened afterwards is an old story.
[14:16] Shiori
After his downfall, he thought of
taking his family's lives with him.
[14:33] Shiori
My mother was the one who saved me.
[14:36] Shiori
She had to go to prison
for committing a murder.
[14:41] Shiori
I spent a year at an orphanage
and was adopted later on.
[14:48] Shiori
I kept my head down to avoid standing
out or causing any trouble.
[14:55] Shiori
Still, no matter how hard
I tried to keep my secret hidden,
SIGN Die
Murderer
Idiot
[14:59] Shiori
people always found a way to learn about it.
SIGN Daughter of a Murderer
[15:05] Shiori
Which made me change schools often.
[15:09] Shiori
After graduating junior high,
[15:11] Shiori
I attended night school while I worked
to earn money for my tuition.
[15:17] Shiori
But the same thing happened there, too.
[15:20] Shiori
So I constantly changed jobs and
moved from one place to another.
[15:23] Shiori
Even now, I hardly own anything,
so I can leave whenever I'm asked.
[15:30] Shiori
And this academy said that they needed
my help despite my background.
[15:34] Shiori
That is why I decided to stay here.
[15:37] Shiori
There's something here that even I...
No, there's something here that only I can do.
[15:42] Shiori
That's how it made me feel.
[15:45] Haruto
Sensei.
[15:46] Shiori
Yes?
[15:47] Haruto
I wish you the best in tomorrow's
personal interview.
[15:51] Shiori
Thank you.
[15:54] Tohka
Huh?
[15:55] Shiori
So, I am asking you if you would like
to be deployed to battlefields.
[16:00] Tohka
Listen here. Who the heck
wants to go to battles?
[16:04] Tohka
None of us want to die or kill other people.
[16:07] Tohka
Do you get what I'm saying?
[16:09] Rena
Don't get me wrong,
going to battlefields is scary.
[16:12] Rena
You're probably beyond saving
if you don't feel any fear!
[16:16] Chris
But if there's a life that will
be saved by me being there,
[16:21] Chris
it would feel uncomfortable for
me to not go out there.
[16:24] Murasaki
I'm being useful at a job that only I
can do. That's how I convince myself.
[16:30] Gumi
I am honored that I can pull my trigger
[16:32] Gumi
for my fellow comrades,
the organization, and my country!
[16:37] Taiga
You'd better not misunderstand me.
[16:40] Taiga
I am not thirsty to go to a battlefield.
[16:43] Taiga
I want to become someone who is
necessary there, that's all.
[16:46] Shiori
I see. Okay...
[16:49] Maki
Hey, Taiga!
[16:50] Maki
I can look at your combat skills
now that the gym is free!
[16:53] Shiori
But you can't.
[16:55] Maki
Why not?
[16:56] Shiori
We haven't done your personal
interview yet, Inohara-san.
[16:59] Maki
I never agreed to gettin'
interviewed anyway.
[17:02] Shiori
You told me that you'd drop by if you could.
[17:04] Maki
Eighty percent of the time, that means I won't.
[17:07] Taiga
What are you afraid of? Even a
child like myself can answer these questions.
[17:12] Maki
I ain't scared of nothin'!
[17:14] Maki
Fine, just get it over with already.
[17:17] Shiori
Then just one question.
[17:19] Shiori
Inohara-san, why do you kill other people?
[17:24] Maki
I knew you'd ask those types of questions.
[17:26] Shiori
Were you avoiding the interview
because you knew I'd ask this?
[17:30] Maki
It's not like that.
[17:31] Maki
But I thought answering that question
would change me as a person.
[17:39] Taiga
Inohara!
[17:39] Maki
W-What?
[17:42] Taiga
You're an assassin, so don't be so pathetic.
[17:46] Taiga
Kill for me.
[17:48] Taiga
I'll take on that burden for you!
[17:51] Maki
Looks like I've lost my edge if I'm
makin' a kid like you look after me.
[17:56] Taiga
I-I'm just trying to help you, Inohara!
[18:01] Maki
I'll think about it.
[18:03] Maki
Sensei, can I go now?
[18:04] Shiori
Oh, sure! Go ahead.
[18:11] Shiori
It's no use.
[18:12] Shiori
I can't come up with an answer no
matter how much I think it through.
[18:20] Shiori
Huh?
[18:21] Shiori
Of course.
[18:25] Shiori
I can't leave such an important
decision to chance.
[18:30] Student A
Taiga!
[18:33] Student A
We made this for you.
[18:35] Taiga
"Medic Taiga Saves Everyone"?
[18:38] Student A
It means a caring tiger
takes care of their ambush.
[18:41] Student B
Those wearing this badge will save lives
bravely and courageously just like a tiger,
[18:49] Student B
no matter how difficult the situation is.
[18:51] Student B
Even if that means saving an enemy's life.
[18:54] Taiga
"Saves Everyone," huh...
[18:57] Taiga
I see. It's a phrase that resonates with me.
[18:59] Student A
Promise us that you'll come home safe.
[19:02] Taiga
I'm not sure if I'll be deployed yet.
[19:04] Taiga
But I'll engrave this phrase
in my heart as my resolution.
[19:10] Shiori
A resolution...
[19:12] Shiori
That's right. My students all
have strong resolve.
[19:18] Shiori
But what about me?
[19:21] Shiori
What should I aim for as their instructor?
[19:26] Shiori
I already know the answer to that.
There's nothing to worry about.
[19:32] Shiori
I allow the overseas dispatch of Class A.
[19:36] Shiori
Under one condition, however.
[19:37] Ichiru
What is it?
[19:39] Shiori
I am coming with them.
[19:42] Haruto
Are you serious, Sensei?
[19:44] Shiori
My resolution as their instructor is:
"Looking after them until the end."
[19:50] Shiori
Leaving everything in other people's
hands after giving permission
[19:53] Shiori
is not how I wish to do things.
[19:55] Ichiru
Very well. Suit yourself.
[19:57] Shiori
Thank you!
[20:02] Nogami
There's one thing that has been on my mind.
[20:05] Ichiru
What is it?
[20:06] Nogami
Is Arisaka-sensei really not aware that
she is the one who killed her own father?

[20:16] (Flashback) Dad
You nag but don't do anythin'
when it matters most!
[20:24] (Flashback) Dad
You always say how you're doin' your best...
[20:27] Ichiru
It must be a type of
depersonalization disorder.
[20:30] Ichiru
Either she couldn't recognize herself,
[20:33] Ichiru
or she experienced psychogenic amnesia.
[20:37] Ichiru
It's quite common when people are exposed
to the extreme stress of facing death.
[20:50] Ichiru
And you know, Min-chan.
[20:52] Ichiru
You assume that Arisaka-kun is the
reason for her father's death,
[20:56] Ichiru
but there's nothing that guarantees that.
[21:00] Ichiru
It is a fact that she was the one
who stabbed her father's back first.
[21:05] Ichiru
But the one who didn't stop the bleeding
[21:07] Ichiru
and stabbed her husband
multiple times was the mother.
[21:10] Nogami
I'm aware of that.
[21:12] Nogami
Isn't it dangerous, however, how she
perceives her own actions in third person?
[21:18] Ichiru
You worry too much, Min-chan.
[21:22] Nogami
She'll be exposed to an extremely
stressful environment from now on.
[21:27] Nogami
And when she suddenly accepts the fact
that she had a divergence in her life,
[21:30] Nogami
and recognizes what she
has done in her past...
[21:34] Ichiru
Nobody can stop that from happening.
[21:37] Ichiru
Not you, and not me.
[21:41] Nogami
Understood.
[21:55] Haruto
All personnel, anti-bomb defense!
[21:56] Shiori
A-Anti? Anti?!
[22:00] Maki
Taiga!
[22:01] Taiga
Mmhmm!
[23:40] Maki
I'm Maki Inohara!
[23:41] Murasaki
I'm Murasaki.
[23:42] Maki
I've realized...
[23:44] Murasaki
Realized what?
[23:44] Maki
That smartphones and human
bodies are the same!
[23:47] Murasaki
Huh?
[23:47] Maki
Cuz abs are like cracks, aren't they?
[23:50] Murasaki
Yeah.
[23:50] Maki
Smartphone screens crack too!
[23:53] Maki
So, they're the same as a human body!
[23:55] Murasaki
You're such a musclehead. But continue.
[23:58] Maki
Continue?
[23:59] Murasaki
Yeah, go on.
[24:01] Maki
What do you mean?
[24:02] Murasaki
What? You only declared
it based on one thing?
[24:06] Maki
Yeah!
[24:07] Murasaki
Wow. But there should at
least be one more similarity.
[24:12] Maki
Err... Oh! Human bodies and smartphones
both react when they're touched!
[24:17] Murasaki
But don't turtles also
react when they're touched?
[24:22] Maki
Which means that smartphones are turtles!
[24:27] Maki
Is this what you call "logical thinking"?!
[24:31] Murasaki
Sure. You're such a smart girl.
[24:35] Maki
Next week, TV animation Grisaia:
Phantom Trigger episode nine.

[24:41] Maki
By the way, want some
chocolate covered peanuts?
[24:43] Murasaki
No thanks. I don't think I should eat them.
[24:48] Maki
You want just some peanuts?
[24:49] Murasaki
That's probably worse, so I'm fine.
