[00:00] Reigen
    We're almost at Mt. Mud Boat.
[00:03] Reigen
    By the way, why are we here again?
[00:06] Mob
    Um...
[00:07] Inukawa
    This place always has a
    lot of UFO sightings,
[00:11] Inukawa
    and most of them seem to happen
    around the same time on New Year's Eve.
[00:15] Kijibayashi
    And this phenomenon apparently
    occurs every seven years.
[00:20] Kijibayashi
    The last time there was a
    sighting was seven years ago.
[00:23] Inukawa
    At least, that's what this article said.
[00:26] Reigen
    Well, all this information
    is rather convenient.
[00:32] Reigen
    You've got this, Mob. We're almost there,
    so don't go puking on me.
[00:37] Saruta
    This road sure is something.
[00:39] Reigen
    There's supposed to be a
    hiking trail somewhere.
[00:42] Kijibayashi
    Huh?
[00:43] Tome
    What's wrong?
[00:44] Kijibayashi
    I think we passed the sign for
    the hiking trail a ways back...
[00:48] Tome
    Uh, why didn't you mention that earlier?
[00:51] Kijibayashi
    I just thought he was trying to take us
    as far as he could with the car.
SIGN    Licensed driver with little experience: 10 years
[00:56] Tome
    Ugh!
[00:57] Takeuchi
    We're gonna have to go in reverse until
    we find enough space to make a U-turn.
[01:02] Takeuchi
    It's only 1:30 PM, so there's
    probably no reason to hurry.
[01:06] Tome
    Yeah, says the guy who was an hour late.
[01:11] Inukawa
    Hey, let's calm down.
[01:13] Inukawa
    The UFO's not gonna come if we're too angry.
[01:15] Tome
    Huh?
[01:16] Tome
    Are you mocking me?
[01:18] Tome
    And after I canceled my plans for
    New Year's Eve to be here.
[01:21] Inukawa
    The hell'd you just say?
SIGN    The hell'd you just say?
[01:22] Inukawa
    You were being all pouty,
SIGN    You were being all pouty,
SIGN    so we were trying to be nice
[01:25] Inukawa
    so we were trying to be nice!
[01:26] Green
    The hell's with that attitude?
[01:27] Inukawa
    The hell's with that attitude?
[01:28] Inukawa
    N-Now, now...
[01:35] Reigen
    Okay, time to put this baby in reverse.
[01:39] Reigen
    M-Mob!
SIGN    Mob Psycho
SIGN    Transmission 2
     Encountering the Unknown
[03:23] Saruta
    Are you okay?
[03:25] Inuta
    Thank goodness. There's reception.
[03:27] Kijibayashi
    Oh, you're right.
[03:28] Reigen
    All right. Let's walk back
    towards the hiking trail.
[03:32] Reigen
    I'll come back to get the car later.
[03:36] Takenaka
    If we're going to walk, why don't we keep
    going forward rather than go back?
[03:39] Reigen
    Yeah, not happening.
[03:41] Reigen
    Amateurs shouldn't walk the game trails
    of mountains they're not familiar with.
[03:44] Reigen
    I won't be able to take any responsibility
    if something happens to you kids.
[03:48] Saruta
    Um... Sorry, I'm gonna go take a piss.
[03:53] Reigen
    Mob, you should go, too.
[03:57] Inukawa
    They don't seem to be coming back.
[04:00] Tome
    They aren't going number two, are they?
[04:03] Kijibayashi
    Did they get lost? I'll go take a look.
[04:05] Reigen
    Hold it. It's dangerous to go alone.
    We'll all go together.
[04:09] Inukawa
    That way?
[04:10] Tome
    No, it's that way.
[04:22] Mob
    Which way did we come from again?
[04:24] Saruta
    We've definitely lost the path.
[04:28] Tome
    And now there's no reception.
[04:31] Inukawa
    Uh, we're probably gonna be
    in trouble if it gets dark.
[04:34] Inukawa
    Sh-Should we head back down?
[04:36] Reigen
    Whenever you get lost in the mountains...
[04:38] Reigen
    I've heard that it's probably safer to
    head up the mountain than try to go back down.
[04:45] Reigen
    If we can get to a better vantage point,
[04:47] Reigen
    we should be able to find a route.
[04:49] Inukawa
    Oh, I see.
[04:50] Reigen
    I should've placed more obvious
    markers along the way...
[04:54] Saruta
    He sure seems knowledgeable,
    even if he's an amateur.
[04:58] Inukawa
    Oh, crap! I left the book back in the car.
[05:01] Kijibayashi
    What? You're kidding.
[05:02] Saruta
    The one that has the spell for
    the UFO summoning ritual?!
[05:08] Tome
    It's no big deal.
[05:17] Reigen
    Look, it's the mountain trail.
[05:19] Inukawa
    I think we might just make
    it if we keep going!
[05:22] Tome
    Huh? Weren't we heading back?
[05:26] Saruta
    We've come this far,
    so let's actually summon a UFO!
[05:30] Tome
    Yeah, that's not happening. We've been
    messing up left and right all day.
[05:35] Kijibayashi
    Seriously, Kurata...
[05:37] Kijibayashi
    Who do you think Inukawa and Saruta
    painstakingly planned this all out for?
[05:41] Tome
    What? Really?
[05:44] Tome
    Are you seriously trying to
    blame this on me right now?
[05:48] Tome
    I disbanded the Telepathy Club because
    all of you never tried to do anything!
[05:53] Tome
    Today's no different.
[05:55] Tome
    I kept wondering if I should come or not!
[05:58] Tome
    Because I didn't want this
    very thing to happen.
[06:01] Tome
    I only came because I believed you
    when you said you found a telepathist.
[06:06] Tome
    And yet you had the nerve to lie to me...
[06:09] Tome
    None of you have any idea how I feel
    getting my earnest hopes trampled on.
[06:18] Tome
    How could you?!
[06:19] Tome
    How could you?!
[06:23] Reigen
    Anyway, there's really no point
    in arguing right now,
[06:26] Reigen
    so why don't we keep on walking?
[06:28] Tome
    No, I'm going home! I'm leaving!
[06:31] Tome
    I'm tired! I'm not climbing any farther!
[06:35] Tome
    I'll go back alone, so all
    of you can keep on going.
[06:40] Mob
    Tome-san.
[06:41] Mob
    Let's walk together.
[06:49] Tome
    Okay, fine. I just need
    to keep walking, right?
[06:54] Reigen
    All right, let's go.
[07:12] Reigen
    Man, we're high up.
[07:14] Inukawa
    We did it.
[07:15] Reigen
    4:19 PM...
[07:18] Reigen
    We don't have much time before
    the sun's gonna set.
[07:21] Inukawa
    Well... According to the documents,
    the UFO usually appears around 5 PM,
[07:27] Inukawa
    so let's get ready to summon it.
[07:31] Tome
    Are we really doing this?
    Didn't you forget the book in the car?
[07:35] Saruta
    Prez, you were always reading that book.
[07:39] Saruta
    You don't have the spell to
    summon aliens memorized?
[07:44] Tome
    Of course I don't.
[07:47] Tome
    Isn't it enough that we all climbed
    to the top of the mountain together?
[07:51] Tome
    We've already made plenty
    of memories today.
[07:54] Tome
    This is a great view.
[07:58] Tome
    What are you doing, Takenaka?
[08:04] Takenaka
    Ahem...
[08:07] Takenaka
    Doofa stootoo ayaabagayari...
[08:11] Takenaka
    Prooha komo hipakaeeh...
[08:16] Takenaka
    After creating an 8 with the rocks and
    setting a foot in either circle,
[08:21] Takenaka
    close your eyes and chant while facing
    in the southwest direction...
[08:24] Takenaka
    Hands should look like this.
[08:26] Takenaka
    I know you remember this, Prez.
[08:30] Takenaka
    I got pretty serious researching all of this
    and before I knew it, it was morning.
[08:36] Inukawa
    So... you weren't late because you
    overslept from being too nervous?
[08:41] Takenaka
    This is way too embarrassing to even say.
[08:44] Takenaka
    The last thing I wanted to do was mess it
    up, so I figured I'd do whatever I could.
[08:48] Tome
    You were that serious about this?
[08:51] Takenaka
    Yeah, I am.
[08:53] Takenaka
    I decided I'd help out because these
    three were so serious about all this.
[08:57] Takenaka
    So could you believe us already?
[09:01] Tome
    But...
[09:02] Takenaka
    "Even then, I'm scared of this going wrong.
[09:06] Takenaka
    It's probably better to limit this
    to chasing a fantasy.
[09:11] Takenaka
    Maybe all that matters in this
    is whether we had fun.
[09:15] Takenaka
    Because my other memories with
    everyone may all end up a joke, too.
[09:21] Takenaka
    We almost got lost in the mountains because
    I'm forcing my delusions on them.
[09:26] Takenaka
    I don't want to face reality
    any more than this..." Apparently.
[09:30] Saruta
    No way! We don't think you're
    forcing your delusions on us.
[09:34] Inukawa
    This is something we wanted to do!
[09:37] Kijibayashi
    Before the Telepathy Club disbands.
[09:41] Tome
    Boys...
[09:43] Tome
    Then...
[09:44] Tome
    Then you should've just said so earlier!
[09:47] Saruta; Inukawa; Kijibayashi
    Would it kill her to be honest?
[09:49] Tome
    If that's the case, we're all doing this.
[09:51] Tome
    Come on, start lining up those rocks.
[09:54] All
    Doofa stootoo ayaabagayari...
[09:57] All
    Prooha komo hipakaeeh...
[09:59] All
    Doofa stootoo ayaabagayari...
[10:02] All
    Prooha komo hipakaeeh...
[10:02] Mob
    Master?
[10:04] Reigen
    You said you researched this
    all last night, right?
[10:05] All
    Doofa stootoo ayaabagayari...
[10:07] Reigen
    Are you sure you didn't
    find out anything else?
[10:08] All
    Prooha komo hipakaeeh...
[10:10] All
    Doofa stootoo ayaabagayari...
[10:10] Inukawa
    Huh? Is your master a telepathist, too?
[10:13] Reigen
    No, I am not a telepathist...
[10:16] Reigen
    but I can read minds by observing
    the subtle changes in your aura.
[10:21] Takenaka
    Apparently, he's the kind
    of guy that's a total liar
[10:23] Takenaka
    but is good at reading people through
    their actions and mannerisms.
[10:26] Tome
    Well, Takenaka?
    Are you hiding anything else?
[10:31] Takenaka
    Well, the author of that occult book
    was arrested two years ago for fraud.
[10:37] Takenaka
    The research in that book has no basis.
[10:41] Takenaka
    Even this ritual is completely fake.
[10:43] Inukawa
    Seriously?
[10:45] Saruta
    So you're saying this is pointless?
[10:47] Kijibayashi
    What the hell?
[10:49] Takenaka
    I-I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner.
[10:52] Takenaka
    I figured there was purpose in the
    Telepathy Club working together, though.
[10:56] Reigen
    And you're exactly right.
[10:58] Reigen
    It's always worth it to do your best.
[11:01] Reigen
    All of you ended up gathering
    information and took action.
[11:04] Reigen
    That's pretty impressive.
[11:06] Reigen
    I'm sure this whole thing will always
    be a precious memory of your youth.
[11:11] Reigen
    It will always remain an important
    experience in your hearts.
[11:16] Reigen
    And you should be proud of that.
[11:19] Tome
    Y-You're right. We all did our best.
[11:22] Inukawa
    Y-Yeah.
[11:24] Kijibayashi
    There's no denying that we
    actually did work hard.
[11:26] Saruta
    I guess...
[11:27] Reigen
    All right. It's getting pretty
    dark, so let's head back.
[11:31] Mob
    What about the UFO sightings?
    Were those also fake?
[11:35] Takenaka
    No, apparently those really happened.
[11:38] Mob
    I see.
[11:46] Mob
    Then, let's do it.
[11:47] Mob
    We haven't tried everything yet.
[11:51] Mob
    Let's send out a telepathic message.
[11:53] Mob
    I'll give it my all, too,
    so let's all try again.
[11:57] Tome
    Mob-kun...
[11:59] Takenaka
    Prez, do you want to try it?
[12:01] Kijibayashi
    Let's do it.
[12:02] Saruta
    Yeah.
[12:03] Inukawa
    Come on, President Kurata.
[12:04] Tome
    Boys... Thank you.
[12:35] Reigen
    Don't try moving too much.
[12:38] Tome
    Did you try too hard?
[12:40] Mob
    I-I'll be okay. But...
[12:44] Mob
    Dang it... I guess it didn't work.
[12:53] Tome
    Why all the long faces?
[12:56] Inukawa
    I-I mean...
[12:58] Tome
    Psychics and telepathists actually exist.
[13:02] Tome
    I'm sure we'll be able to
    communicate with aliens someday!
[13:06] Tome
    Just look at how many stars are in the sky!
[13:11] Tome
    There's no reason to hurry.
[13:13] Tome
    I'm having plenty of fun being
    with all of you, so it's fine.
[13:20] Tome
    Huh?

     Actually Existed!
[13:35] Reigen
    Is this for real?
[13:36] Takenaka
    It actually came?
[13:38] Tome
    Wai—Wh-Wh-What do we do?!
    What am I supposed to do?!
[13:42] Inukawa
    Y-You're the one who wanted
    to meet the aliens, Prez!
[13:46] Tome
    Y-Y-Yeah, b-but...
[13:49] Inukawa; Saruta; Kijibayashi
    Prez! Behind you! Behind you!
[13:50] Inukawa; Saruta; Kijibayashi
    S-Something's coming!
[13:52] Tome
    That was quick!
[13:53] Tome
    Uh, I... D-D-Do we have anything?!
    Like a bug-catching net?
[13:57] Inukawa
    Why are you thinking about capturing them?!
[13:59] Inukawa
    Who knows what'll happen
    if we make them mad?!
[14:07] Reigen
    Th-This is what aliens look like?
[14:11] Tome
    Thin limbs...
[14:13] Tome
    Giant, developed heads...
    Super-smooth skin...
[14:17] Tome
    Humongous, sparkly eyes...
[14:20] Tome
    There's no doubt about it.
    They're the real deal!
[14:23] Reigen
    They really do seem otherworldly...
[14:27] Reigen
    I wonder if we can communicate with them.
[14:29] Mob
    They have really pretty eyes, though.
[14:32] Takenaka
    I don't sense any malice.
[14:34] Inukawa
    It seems like they want to shake hands...
[14:36] Tome
    Wait, with me?
[14:37] Tome
    I-I'd be honored!
[14:39] Tome
    I can't believe I get to greet them on
    behalf of Earth before anyone else!
[14:43] Reigen
    Hey, I really wouldn't!
[14:44] Reigen
    You never know what kind of
    germs they're carrying.
[14:47] Mob
    Master...
[14:57] Inukawa
    Good for you, President Kurata.
[15:07] Takenaka
    Apparently, they want to show us
    the inside of their spacecraft.
[15:09] Saruta
    Really?!
[15:10] Inukawa
    Sweet! That's awesome!
[15:12] Kijibayashi
    Let's go, everyone!
[15:16] Reigen
    A-Are you sure it's okay to get on?
[15:20] Mob
    I'll go, too.
[15:25] Reigen
    In for a penny, in for a pound, I guess...
[15:51] Tome
    This really reminds me of our club room.
[15:58] Inukawa
    They're, like, super friendly.
[16:02] Kijibayashi
    I sorta figured they'd be kinda scary.
[16:06] Inukawa
    Prez, it's always been your dream to
    interact with extraterrestrial lifeforms, right?
[16:11] Inukawa
    This is your chance to ask them all kinds of
    things with Takenaka as your interpreter!
[16:15] Takenaka
    Yeah, I think I can make it work.
[16:18] Tome
    R-Right... Um... Uh...
[16:31] Tome
    I can't think of anything.
[16:34] Inukawa
    Oh, I know.
    Why don't we play some games?
[16:37] Inukawa
    I always have this thing on me.
[16:42] Tome
    Nice! Let's show them how it works!
[17:22] Reigen
    It's a new year...
[17:25] Reigen
    All this is going on, yet all I can think
    about is the turn of the year
[17:29] Reigen
    and the late fees for the rental car...
[17:33] Reigen
    They're blinding...
[17:39] Kijibayashi
    Whoa, it's almost morning.
    We should head home soon.
[17:43] Inukawa
    You're right.
[17:44] Inukawa
    I, at least, told my parents I was spending
    the night at a friend's house, but...
[17:48] Inukawa
    I mean, I guess we're all
    friends now anyway.
[17:54] Takenaka
    All right, let's start wrapping things up.
[18:05] Inukawa
    I wonder if it's a gift.
[18:07] Tome
    It's so pretty.
[18:10] Takenaka
    It's a token of their friendship, apparently.
[18:17] Inukawa
    They just keep staring.
[18:18] Inukawa
    Maybe we should give them
    something in return?
[18:22] Tome
    Then, I'll give them my scarf.
[18:28] Kijibayashi
    Um... Then I'll give them this notebook.
[18:32] Takenaka
    Here's my watch... It's pretty cheap, but...
[18:35] Saruta
    You can have my gum.
[18:37] Inukawa
    Here's this gaming console from Earth.
[18:39] Mob
    Hm... I don't have anything.
[18:42] Mob
    Maybe I can show them some of my powers.
[18:47] Tome
    They seem pretty happy with that.
[18:49] Mob
    Oh, that's good.
[18:54] Tome
    Uh... Why are you stripping, Reigen-san?
[18:57] Reigen
    I was in a hurry this morning, so I'm
    still wearing my pajamas underneath.
[19:02] Reigen
    You can have this.
[19:04] Takenaka
    They're very happy.
[19:05] Tome
    I guess anything goes.
[19:14] Tome
    Thank you so much for coming to see us.
[19:21] Tome
    Well, we'll be on our way now.
    Let's meet again someday!
[19:40] Reigen
    Hey, the first sunrise of the year.
[19:44] Tome
    I'll never forget today.
[19:47] Tome
    I'm sure everyone else feels
    the same... I just know it.
[19:54] Tome
    Hey, wait.
[19:56] Tome
    Where's Inukawa?
[20:09] Inukawa
    New Year's Eve.
[20:11] Inukawa
    I was taken away by a UFO.
[20:18] Inukawa
    I'm going to try to convince them
    to take me back to Earth.
[20:25] Inukawa
    But I'm dealing with aliens.
[20:29] Inukawa
    I can't communicate with them.
[20:31] Inukawa
    This is probably going to be
    a long, drawn-out battle.
SIGN    New Year's Eve 201X
    I was taken away by a UFO. I can't communicate with them because they're aliens.
    They don't seem to have any ill will, though. THEY DON'T, RIGHT?!
    I'm sure this is all some sort of misunderstanding. THIS IS A MISUNDERSTANDING, RIGHT?
    Please let me go back to Earth. I'm going to try to convince them.
    But this is probably going to be a long, drawn-out battle.
    I think I'm going to keep writing down my progress in this notebook.
[20:35] Inukawa
    For now, I think I'm going to keep writing
    down my progress in this notebook.
[20:42] Inukawa
    The next day, they all threw me a
    welcome party...? Or something.
[20:48] Inukawa
    I had no idea what any of this stuff is,
    but in the end, I chose something and ate it.
[20:54] Inukawa
    After that, my memories are a little foggy,
[20:57] Inukawa
    but I think something insane happened.
[21:07] Inukawa
    When I came to, I was in another unfamiliar
    place, and my head was killing me.
[21:14] Inukawa
    That day, I realized just how much a
    little bit of gaming time would mean to me.
[21:21] Inukawa
    But, more importantly, I wanted to go home.
[21:27] Inukawa
    The inhabitants of this planet
    have a natural enemy.
[21:30] Inukawa
    It's a savage monster that
    tries to eat all of their crops.
[21:37] Inukawa
    Despite being such an advanced race,
[21:39] Inukawa
    they'd never thought of using weapons.
[21:49] Inukawa
    And so, I took care of that pest for them.
[21:53] Inukawa
    It ended up being about the size
    of the dog I have back home.
[22:07] Inukawa
    It might be because I slew their monster,
    but they treated me like a hero,
[22:11] Inukawa
    so life on this planet
    isn't so bad after all.
[22:21] Inukawa
    I have no idea how much
    time has passed now.
[22:31] Inukawa
    Everyone!
[22:33] Inukawa
    I have something I need to tell you!
[22:41] Narrator
    On the brink of loneliness, Inukawa was
    able to link his thoughts with the aliens
[22:48] Narrator
    and tell them that he wanted
    to go back home to Earth.
[23:01] Narrator
    If you have something you want to
    say, just look them in the eyes,
[23:06] Narrator
    and you'll be able to get through to them.
[23:09] Narrator
    Inukawa realized this, but by
    the time he got back to Earth,
[23:14] Narrator
    most of his memories had
    become fuzzy and vague.
[23:26] Mob
    What?
[23:27] Mob
    You're joking, right?
[23:28] Mob
    What?
[23:29] Mob
    Really?
[23:31] Mob
    Tsubomi-chan is... transferring?
