[00:10] ---
There, it's dealt with.
[00:16] ---
I don't know what it is you hear,
[00:20] ---
but I don't believe a word an Another says.
[00:27] ---
Or anything you say.
[00:30] ---
But still, I...
[00:33] ---
You want to solve problems
with the Anothers by talking?
[00:39] ---
Very well.
[00:41] ---
You can deal with a case I'm working on.
[00:46] ---
Let's have you solve
it with those Ears of yours.
[00:51] ---
It involves something at the Olympic Stadium.
SIGN #10 "White Cocoons and Blue Flames"
[02:37] ---
Miyako-san?
[02:39] ---
Aida-san?
[02:41] ---
Thank you...
[02:44] ---
Ryo woke up, thanks to you.
[02:48] ---
Thank you so much.
[02:50] ---
N-No, actually...
[02:52] ---
You kept your promise, didn't you?
[02:55] ---
Ryo, you thank him, too.
[03:02] ---
Thank you!
[03:15] ---
I heard you solved Aida-san's problem.
[03:19] ---
Senda-san...
[03:21] ---
That's great.
[03:23] ---
Yeah, I guess...
[03:28] ---
If you want to talk, we can.
[03:32] ---
I see.
[03:33] ---
The elites at City Hall can be pretty brutal.
[03:37] ---
I can't say for sure that
Kanoichi-san is wrong, but...
[03:42] ---
I can't accept it.
[03:44] ---
Yeah, just stomping on him was brutal.
[03:48] ---
Same with viewing Anothers as just
things to be killed or spared.
[03:54] ---
What do you think, Sakaki-kun?
[03:57] ---
Kanoichi Satoru's way of handling it aside,
[03:59] ---
it was the best option in terms of making
sure there were no more casualties.
[04:05] ---
Don't get the wrong idea.
[04:06] ---
I'm not saying the way you do things is wrong.
[04:09] ---
I was worried when I saw you were
sympathetic to Azazel, though.
[04:16] ---
Your Ears seem to make you
way too sympathetic to Anothers.
[04:21] ---
When that works out, great.
[04:24] ---
But some day, it might not.
[04:29] ---
I want you to realize that the Ears of Sand
aren't some kind of all-powerful skill.
[04:35] ---
They have their downside.
[04:38] ---
If you keep that in mind when you use them,
[04:41] ---
we'll be there to be back you up.
[04:44] ---
So don't worry.
[04:46] ---
Theo-san.
[04:49] ---
You're such a great team.
[04:52] ---
You're very cute—
[04:54] ---
I mean, very talented... workers.
[04:57] ---
As your boss, I'm very proud.
[05:02] ---
The elites at City Hall, huh?
[05:05] ---
From what Miyako-kun said,
something seems dangerous about that guy.
[05:12] ---
Why?
[05:13] ---
Whenever someone gets
arrogant, they always fail.
[05:25] ---
The details are as I wrote in my email.
[05:29] ---
Any questions?
[05:32] ---
Basically, there's an Another
in the Stadium, right?
[05:37] ---
The construction work
is falling behind, you said.
[05:40] ---
Is that because of the Another?
[05:43] ---
No, it's better to say it might fall behind.
[05:48] ---
What do you mean?
[05:50] ---
You'll know when we get there.
[05:54] ---
You're aware of why City Hall
is getting involved, right?
[06:00] ---
It's the main event area for the Olympics.
[06:19] ---
Is this all... Anothers?
[06:22] ---
What is this?
[06:24] ---
It's like the end of the world.
[06:27] ---
There've been other small
problems involving Anothers,
[06:32] ---
but never of this scale.
[06:35] ---
Normal people can't see this, right?
[06:39] ---
Of course not.
[06:40] ---
So they can come and
go easily, and keep this up.
[06:45] ---
It's causing lots of accidents,
though. Obviously.
[06:49] ---
We rushed here immediately.
[06:51] ---
But it was too late.
[06:55] ---
We realized the mistake we'd made...
[06:57] ---
There aren't many Anothers
in this area to serve as predators.
[07:00] ---
So it was the perfect place to lay eggs.
[07:04] ---
We tried removing them little by little.
[07:07] ---
But the next day we came back
and there were more.
[07:13] ---
We got nowhere.
[07:15] ---
But if you can use your Ears
of Sand to talk to the Another,
[07:21] ---
it would help us a lot.
[07:24] ---
We'd save money on our budget, after all.
[07:29] ---
What Anothers are these?
[07:32] ---
Actually, is there anything even inside these?
[07:35] ---
We cracked one open to check.
[07:38] ---
It appeared to be some kind of insect Another.
[07:42] ---
Insect?
[07:43] ---
So these are cocoons?
[07:46] ---
Now, Miyako-san, use your Ears of Sand.
[07:51] ---
W-Wait, Miyako-san!
It's dangerous to go alone!
[07:57] ---
Wh-What cocoons are these?
[07:59] ---
I don't know.
[08:02] ---
You don't hear any voices?
[08:04] ---
No, not yet.
[08:07] ---
Wait a second.
[08:12] ---
I hear something.
[08:29] ---
Th-That's...
[08:32] ---
It's spitting something out.
[08:34] ---
It's spinning a thread...
[08:43] ---
There're bigger problems here
than not being able to talk to it!
[08:47] ---
Well, Miyako-san?
[08:50] ---
Did you hear something?
Did they say something?
[08:55] ---
The voice... of a baby.
[08:59] ---
I see.
[09:00] ---
They're just what they looked like, huh?
[09:05] ---
What about the parent Another?
[09:08] ---
We thought of that,
but we have yet to see it.
[09:13] ---
So why don't you ask them?
[09:18] ---
I'd appreciate it, personally.
[09:20] ---
If we know the cause, we can
remove it at the source.
[09:24] ---
And then this will never happen again.
[09:29] ---
Miyako-san?
[09:39] ---
You knew, didn't you?
[09:41] ---
You knew from the start, and yet...
[09:43] ---
You made me do this!
[09:46] ---
Well, then, we have to eliminate them.
[09:48] ---
If you can't do it, we'll have to burn them.
[09:55] ---
That's...
[09:55] ---
Any other ideas, then?
[09:58] ---
You're not going to tell me we should
just leave them here, are you?
[10:04] ---
But after seeing them
and hearing their voices...
[10:06] ---
Your ears seem to make you
way too sympathetic to Anothers.
[10:14] ---
What is there to think about?
[10:17] ---
The answer is simple.
[10:19] ---
They're in humanity's territory.
Some people have even gotten hurt.
[10:24] ---
If we want to get rid of them,
we need to do it now.
[10:28] ---
If you know that and your
Ears of Sand still can't help you...
[10:33] ---
You're just in the way.
[10:37] ---
Tomorrow, we'll all begin to
handle this with members of City Hall
[10:41] ---
and the ward offices as planned.
[10:43] ---
But you're not required to attend.
[10:47] ---
Shimizu-san, I'd like to explain what we're
doing tomorrow. Please remain here.
[10:52] ---
Miyako-san, tomorrow, please return
to your regular office to work.
[10:56] ---
Thank you for coming today.
[11:51] ---
Feeling down, Arata?
[11:54] ---
Kohaku...
[11:56] ---
I was watching the whole time.
[11:58] ---
What a sight it was!
[12:00] ---
That's not something you see every day.
[12:03] ---
It's something unique to Japan.
[12:05] ---
Do you know what those cocoons are?
[12:07] ---
They're just what they look like.
[12:10] ---
I've seen humans doing
similar things, a long time ago.
[12:15] ---
Anyway, the festival is about to begin.
[12:18] ---
What festival?
[12:20] ---
I'm jealous, though.
[12:22] ---
I could make myself the perfect
thing with that stuff.
[12:26] ---
Maybe I'll ask for some.
[12:29] ---
Don't you think so, Arata?
[12:31] ---
I can understand your words, but still
have no idea what you're saying.
[12:35] ---
Okay, bye!
[12:36] ---
I'll show you when it's done!
[12:39] ---
Look forward to it! Promise me you will!
[12:45] ---
As always, I have no idea what that was about.
[12:53] ---
I'm back, Yuki.
[12:56] ---
Yuki?
[13:03] ---
Where'd he run off to?
SIGN City Hall
[13:32] ---
Akane-san?
SIGN Imperial Gardens
SIGN Shinjuku Imperial Gardens
[13:37] ---
Was I just being naïve?
[13:41] ---
I guess this time it was a really bad matchup.
[13:44] ---
A humanoid bug-type that looks like a baby.
[13:48] ---
That's rough.
[13:50] ---
What would you do, Kyoichi?
[13:52] ---
If it were me, the first thing
I'd do is try to move the cocoons.
[14:00] ---
What Kanoichi Satoru said
would be my last option.
[14:05] ---
I should've snuck in and gotten a sample!
[14:08] ---
Didn't you get one?
[14:10] ---
Sorry, I didn't think of it!
[14:13] ---
That idiot Kanoichi...
[14:15] ---
If he chose to get rid of them, then
he'd better have taken a sample.
[14:19] ---
Theo...
[14:22] ---
From the perspective of a scientist,
[14:24] ---
getting rid of all the Anothers is a bad move.
[14:46] ---
I heard you got in a fight with Miyako-san.
[14:53] ---
Shimizu-kun told me.
[14:55] ---
It wasn't a fight...
[14:58] ---
Then why did you take him off today's job?
[15:02] ---
Because we don't need him.
[15:05] ---
But...
[15:06] ---
Akane-san, you like
to take his side, don't you?
[15:13] ---
Lately, I've started to understand
how Suzu-sama feels.
[15:19] ---
Suzu?
[15:20] ---
The house god?
[15:24] ---
Of course, I don't know what she's saying.
[15:27] ---
So I have to guess from
her facial expressions.
[15:29] ---
That's just your imagination.
[15:32] ---
Communication with
Anothers is impossible.
[15:34] ---
Since Miyako-san came, I feel like
I'm a little closer to Suzu-sama.
[15:39] ---
You can't trust him.
[15:41] ---
He's close to the Anothers.
[15:43] ---
He's like...
[15:44] ---
Uncle?
[15:59] ---
When I see how Miyako-san
treats the Anothers,
[16:02] ---
I remember my uncle... your father.
[16:08] ---
He was Suzu-sama's friend, too...
[16:16] ---
This scar.
[16:17] ---
Do you keep it as a sign of your
hatred toward the Kanoichi clan?
[16:29] ---
Anothers...
[16:34] ---
drive men mad.
[16:38] ---
So we should get rid of them
as soon as we can.
[16:44] ---
But surely you understand...
[16:48] ---
what those cocoons are.
[16:53] ---
There's no other way.
[17:01] ---
I'm curious about what Huehuecóyotl said.
[17:06] ---
He said there'd be a "festival" soon, right?
[17:09] ---
Right.
[17:10] ---
Which means... Izumo, probably.
[17:14] ---
Izumo?
[17:15] ---
You've heard of Kaminashizuki,
the godless month, right?
[17:17] ---
In Izumo, they call it Kamiarizuki,
the month of gods.
[17:19] ---
Um, in October of the old Japanese calendar,
[17:22] ---
all the gods of Japan gather
in Izumo and have a festival, right?
[17:26] ---
Yeah.
[17:27] ---
For that reason, in September
of the old calendar,
[17:30] ---
the Anothers start to vanish.
[17:35] ---
They're probably getting ready to head
to Izumo, or getting ready for the festival.
[17:40] ---
He said humans have been doing it, too.
[17:44] ---
Insects and cocoons...
[17:47] ---
Silkworms?
[17:49] ---
Yes.
[17:51] ---
They're probably harvesting silk.
[17:53] ---
Oh, this is...
[17:54] ---
Not good news.
[17:57] ---
If Huehuecóyotl was talking
about the Izumo festival...
[18:02] ---
Then the Anothers are using
cocoons to make silk.
[18:05] ---
Wait.
[18:07] ---
Kanoichi-san said he couldn't find
the mother of the cocoon babies.
[18:11] ---
But even Kanoichi Satoru's operating on
the assumption that she exists at all.
[18:17] ---
He opted for burning them
because of the location.
[18:21] ---
He's probably getting pressure
from above to solve this.
[18:26] ---
Even if the mother does show up,
he may assume he can deal with them.
[18:32] ---
Even if they do, he'll be able to—
[18:35] ---
No! If we're right, this is seriously bad news.
[18:39] ---
We can't burn them!
[18:40] ---
If they're for a festival of the gods,
[18:44] ---
they're not something humans should mess with!
[18:52] ---
We'll follow the plan we discussed yesterday.
[18:56] ---
Use the talismans I passed out to you...
[19:04] ---
As you can see, they generate purifying
flames that only work on Anothers.
[19:10] ---
They don't work in a wide area,
[19:12] ---
so you're unfortunately going
to have to put one on each cocoon.
[19:18] ---
Okay, let's get to work.
[19:35] ---
Hey, you can't do that!
[19:38] ---
I won't be able to make my clothes!
[19:42] ---
What an awful thing to do.
[19:50] ---
Shall I get rid of those humans for you?
[19:58] ---
Tch... I thought I could
get her to owe me one.
[20:06] ---
Okay, we'll be done by morning at this rate.
[20:13] ---
I'm glad we were able
to deal with this quickly.
[20:16] ---
It's fast when you've got a team this size.
[20:19] ---
Once this is done, can you help
with the stands, Yamaoka?
[20:24] ---
They seem to be running behind...
[20:31] ---
Yamaoka?
[20:45] ---
Shit! It showed up!
[20:47] ---
Where is it?
