[00:08] ---
    Everything begins as a point.
[00:12] ---
    These points are born everywhere,
    and seek connection.
[00:17] ---
    They twist and connect,
    break, and change form.
[00:23] ---
    That is what makes the world what it is.
[00:27] ---
    The history of man. The billowing
    and rolling waves of man...
[00:34] ---
    And one night, another point that will create
    a great swell of waves was born.
[00:42] (Flashback) ---
    I've been waiting for this day,
    when the concept was broken.
[00:47] (Flashback) ---
    Don't take Masayuki!
[00:49] (Flashback) ---
    He didn't kill anyone...
[00:52] (Flashback) ---
    There must be some mistake!
[00:54] (Flashback) ---
    It's them.
[00:55] (Flashback) ---
    No, it's him.
[01:00] (Flashback) ---
    Stop!
[01:02] (Flashback) ---
    You're the ones from yesterday!
[01:03] (Flashback) ---
    Leave us alone. We don't
    have anything to do with this!
[01:13] (Flashback) ---
    Takuya, Yuya! I've got some soda for you.
[01:24] ---
    Naoya...
[01:26] ---
    Brother!
[01:32] ---
    Nao...
[01:36] ---
    How's your wound?
[01:37] ---
    It's fine.
[01:39] ---
    But more importantly...
[01:42] ---
    They brought us to the factory
    and patched you up.
[01:47] ---
    They don't seem weird.
[01:49] ---
    "Weird," huh?
[01:52] ---
    Yeah. Just as weird as them.

[01:57] ---
    Your brother wouldn't answer
    any questions until you woke up.
[02:01] ---
    So we couldn't learn anything.
[02:04] ---
    He might look like a wimp,
    but he's impressively stubborn.
[02:08] ---
    Why's the SWE after you?
    Are you thought criminals?
[02:13] ---
    And who are you?
[02:16] ---
    He answered with a question.
[02:18] ---
    How rude.
[02:20] ---
    Emily found you. Mike followed you.
[02:25] ---
    We saved you from the SWE
     and even patched you up.
[02:29] ---
    Show some gratitude, would ya?
[02:33] ---
    I'm sorry. Thank you.
[02:37] ---
    If you're wanted by the SWE,
    you're not our enemies, at least.
[02:41] ---
    Why are we here?
SIGN    Kirihara Factory
[02:43] ---
    This is our father's factory.
[02:45] ---
    Right now, it's one of our bases.
[02:48] ---
    Bases?
[02:49] ---
    We're the Free Speech Alliance.
[02:52] ---
    We fight the government lunatics.
[02:56] ---
    Fight the government? Like a resistance?
[03:00] ---
    That's right.
[03:01] ---
    The world's gone mad.
[03:04] ---
    Religion, art, entertainment...
[03:06] ---
    Anything—regardless of what it is—is taboo
     if it's a product of unscientific fiction.
SIGN    The World Is Physical
[03:11] ---
    Get involved with any of it,
    and you're a criminal.
[03:14] ---
    You can't even talk about it.
[03:19] ---
    And why is that?
[03:21] ---
    The government is forcing us to be under
    their control, stealing our freedom.
SIGN    The Psychology
    of the Transference
[03:28] ---
    So you believe in spiritual energy, right?
[03:34] ---
    Of course not. That stuff's bullshit.
[03:38] ---
    It doesn't matter if it's real or not.
[03:40] ---
    The government denies
    the existence of spiritual energy
[03:42] ---
    as a means to control the people.
[03:44] ---
    That's how they built
    this totalitarian society.
[03:48] ---
    You can tell, right?
[03:49] ---
    As things stand, it won't be long
    before we have no freedom left.
[03:54] ---
    Naoto Kirihara.
[03:56] ---
    Won't you join us?
[04:00] ---
    I believe we share a common enemy.

    The trigger was the death of his pet dog.
[05:40] ---
    Powerful anger awakened his abilities.
[05:46] ---
    So we were controlled by some little kid?
[05:51] ---
    I couldn't fight it off at all.
[05:54] ---
    I'm sure I had at least
    a little consciousness, but...
[05:58] ---
    Yes. His power is terrifying.
[06:03] ---
    Yours is too, Takuya.
[06:07] ---
    Takuya.
[06:10] ---
    What?
[06:12] ---
    That picture. It's over there.
[06:17] ---
    Young Masayuki's mother
    insisted he be given this.
[06:23] ---
    We saw the girl in this photo,
[06:26] ---
    during the operation against Miracle Mick.
[06:30] ---
    Yes, you were acting strange then, but...
[06:36] ---
    You're sure it's her?
[06:38] ---
    Yes.
[06:39] ---
    That's strange.
[06:41] ---
    Supposedly it was taken
    when Masayuki's mother,
[06:44] ---
    Miki Tachibana, was in high school.
[06:47] ---
    High school?
[06:48] ---
    Yes. The girl you saw is Shoko Futami.
[06:53] ---
    She should be in her 40s now.
[06:56] ---
    Okay, Kakitani. Investigate this Shoko girl.
[07:01] ---
    I'll go talk to Miki Tachibana myself.
[07:08] ---
    The stalemate over nuclear
    proliferation began in 2016
[07:13] ---
     and was unexpectedly broken
     at the start of 2023.
[07:20] ---
    The flames of war spread across the planet,
    and World War III began.
[07:26] ---
    The resulting cataclysm
    altered the planet itself.
[07:31] ---
    A massive series of disasters
    across the Earth
[07:33] ---
    resulted in the deaths of
    two-thirds of the population.
[07:39] ---
    After overcoming this disaster,
    humanity began to rebuild.
[07:48] ---
    We were in isolation.
    We didn't even know it happened.
[07:53] ---
    Yeah.
[07:54] ---
    Isolation? Where were you?
[07:57] ---
    It's none of your business.
[08:02] ---
    You're not the only ones
    who don't remember the war.
[08:05] ---
    What does that mean?
[08:07] ---
    The others and I are the same.
[08:09] ---
    Nobody has clear memories
    of the war or the disasters.
[08:13] ---
    Your memories are vague?
[08:16] ---
    Yes. That's probably why
    everyone watches that movie.
[08:19] ---
    To bury the fear they feel
    over their missing memories.
[08:23] ---
    They're forced to see it.
[08:25] ---
    It's streamed, it's in the theaters...
    You see it everywhere.
[08:30] ---
    It's not some kind of mass hypnosis?
[08:32] ---
    What?
[08:33] ---
    The population's definitely
    one-third of what it was.
[08:37] ---
    The war and the disasters happened.
[08:41] ---
    It's unbelievable.
[08:44] ---
    Yeah.
[08:45] ---
    Who are you guys, anyway?
[08:48] ---
    I'm not answering that.
[08:51] ---
    Cut the crap and—
[08:51] ---
    Hey, Naoto-san, Naoya-san.
[08:54] ---
    I want you to see something.
[09:00] ---
    Shoko was a transfer student.
    We hit it off and became friends quickly.
[09:05] ---
    But we weren't together long.
[09:10] ---
    She disappeared suddenly, before graduation.
[09:13] ---
    And nobody knew where she went?
[09:15] ---
    Yes.
[09:16] ---
    Did you ever see her again?
[09:18] ---
    No.
[09:22] ---
    Masayuki found this photo somehow
    and took a liking to it for some reason.
[09:28] ---
    So I framed it for him.
[09:33] ---
    I don't know why, but it made me so happy...
[09:37] ---
    It's been long enough, right?
[09:38] ---
    Give Masayuki back to me, please!
[09:41] ---
    I can't do that.
[09:42] ---
    He's being interrogated for murder.
[09:46] ---
    No...
[09:48] ---
    I can't believe it...
    Masayuki would never kill anyone...
[09:58] ---
    Look at this.
[10:00] ---
    This is Takuya Kuroki.
[10:03] ---
    This is Yuya Kuroki.
[10:05] ---
    Good. So Yuya's showing
    signs of awakening, too.
[10:10] ---
    Yes. Just a little.
[10:12] ---
    What about Michio and Reika?
[10:14] ---
    Nothing yet.
[10:16] ---
    And there's this, too.
[10:20] ---
    Who is this?
[10:21] ---
    Masayuki Tachibana.
[10:23] ---
    He's on a whole other level.
[10:28] ---
    Get to work!

[10:30] ---
    Stop clinging to fantasies!
[10:33] ---
    This is what I wanted to show you.
[10:36] ---
    What is this?
[10:38] ---
    They're called the Re-Education Rooms.
[10:42] ---
    If the SWE catches you, you're put in a cell
[10:46] ---
    and showed off to the whole world
    until you change your mind.
[10:49] ---
    Those onlookers are just there for fun.
[10:52] ---
    They enjoy watching the prisoners.
[10:55] ---
    No...
[10:57] ---
    She drew a picture of a wizard, it says.
[11:00] ---
    A wizard? Her parents are just as guilty!
[11:03] ---
    There's no such thing as God,
    you crazy old liar!
[11:06] ---
    It's because of people like you
    that society never gets better!
[11:10] ---
    It's gotten even worse lately.
[11:12] ---
    Even children are put on display,
[11:14] ---
    for believing in faith
    or talking about fiction.
[11:17] ---
    It's not normal.
[11:19] ---
    We want to change this world.
SIGN    Violation of the Anti-Religious Beliefs Law
[11:22] ---
    What the hell is this?
[11:24] ---
    Spiritual energy isn't
    accepted in this world.
[11:27] ---
    It's the exact opposite!
[11:29] ---
    Brother...
[11:32] ---
    Are there psychics in there?
[11:37] ---
    I don't think so.
[11:38] ---
    Psychics?
[11:39] ---
    Hey, are you two crazy?
[11:43] ---
    Right, Emily?
[11:44] ---
    Yeah.
[11:46] ---
    This doesn't make sense...
[11:48] ---
    I know there are psychics in the SWE!
[11:51] ---
    Yeah.
[11:53] ---
    This can't be allowed to happen....
[11:58] DistortedVoice
    Yusa-sensei played with my
    feelings and threw me away.
[12:01] DistortedVoice
    I'll make him pay.
[12:02] DistortedVoice
    Animal blood.
[12:04] DistortedVoice
    Is that real?
[12:05] DistortedVoice

SIGN    We'll move on to phase two.
SIGN    Move on?
SIGN    You're pretty good, Kuroki brothers.
SIGN    I don't even know what I can do yet!
SIGN    Don't worry.
SIGN    Just kinda let loose, like I did!
SIGN    Right, Reika?
SIGN    Don't ask me!
SIGN    Don't get cocky, Takuya!
SIGN    Right now, I'm in the lead, Michio.
SIGN    I'll catch up and surpass you!

    You're still mad about that? I'm sorry!
SIGN    It's a good sign.

    I can't control my power yet.
SIGN    Hey.
SIGN    That kid!
SIGN    What?!
SIGN    Sir!
SIGN    This is bad...
SIGN    It's from the HQ building!
SIGN    Terrorism?
SIGN    What's wrong?
SIGN    That child...
SIGN    Child?
SIGN    He's in danger... We have to save him.
SIGN    Hey, hey, hey!
SIGN    What's going on?

[16:00] Text
    This power is incredible... I can't stop it.
[16:05] Text
    It's too strong!
SIGN    What the hell is this bullshit?
SIGN    What's wrong?
SIGN    That's their HQ, you idiot!
SIGN    It's locked tight. We can't get in.
SIGN    We'll get arrested, too.
SIGN    That's right, Naoya-san.
SIGN    Please, Brother!
SIGN    He's like us...
SIGN    If we don't do something, his fate is sealed...
SIGN    He just wants to be with his mom!
SIGN    Okay.
SIGN    I don't know if we can save them both, though.
SIGN    You're kidding me!
SIGN    If we sense danger, we run.
SIGN    Even if we save them, it ends there.
SIGN    We can't do anything else.
SIGN    Thank you, Brother.
SIGN    Oh, fine!
SIGN    Stay in the car. They know your faces.
SIGN    I'll get inside the building.
SIGN    If that's not enough, give up!
SIGN    I'm sorry.
SIGN    Thank you, Mike.
SIGN    Stop this at once!
SIGN    Shut up!
SIGN    Where's my mom?!
SIGN    Give her back!
SIGN    Don't hurt her!
SIGN    Nobody's hurt her! She's fine!
SIGN    You're lying!
SIGN    Masayuki!
SIGN    Let's stop this, Masayuki.
SIGN    Mom's fine, see?
SIGN    Mom!
SIGN    I... I was so scared...
SIGN    You weren't there... and they locked me up all by myself.
SIGN    I'm sorry... I won't leave you alone anymore.
SIGN    Really?
SIGN    Don't worry.
SIGN    We're not here to hurt you!
SIGN    You're lying!
SIGN    No!

SIGN    Are you okay?
SIGN    Masayuki...
SIGN    What's going on in there?

SIGN    Get a medic team here, too!

SIGN    You're the only one who hasn't done anything.
