[00:07] ---
    These men with guns suddenly rushed in...
[00:10] ---
    I thought I was going to die!
[00:13] ---
    They were screaming about
    showing me psychic powers!
[00:16] ---
    They're insane!
[00:18] ---
    If it weren't for the SWE, who knows
    what would've happened to me!
[00:22] ---
    Japan is a wonderful country!
[00:24] ---
    And the Special Weapons Enforcement's
    power is incredible!
[00:27] ---
    Haitani's so excited.
[00:29] ---
    The SWE's amazing! They're so cool!
[00:32] ---
    But I like watching Ms. Sasaki's program,
    and they didn't show it because of this!
[00:36] ---
    I'd even set it to record.
[00:38] ---
    Oh, the one where Haitani shows up
     all the psychics. I like it, too.
[00:41] ---
    I should record it, too!
[00:43] ---
    Ms. Sasaki's so cute!
[00:44] ---
    It really pisses me off.
[00:46] ---
    Those guys should get a job
     instead of pulling this crap.
[00:48] ---
    I bet they're just a bunch of losers
[00:50] ---
    avoiding responsibility
    for their failures.
[00:52] ---
    Idiots.
[00:54] ---
    And now they're all dead.
[00:55] ---
    That bastard... Where did he go?
[01:00] ---
    Naoto disappeared too, huh?
[01:03] ---
    Yuya contacted us.
[01:06] ---
    His brother Naoya disappeared, too.
[01:08] ---
    Disappeared? Who are those two?
[01:11] ---
    I don't know.
[01:14] ---
    They've got something to do
    with our parents.
[01:16] ---
    What?
[01:17] ---
    They're hiding something.
[01:20] ---
    We'll find them, no matter what.
[01:23] ---
    They're dangerous.
[01:25] ---
    Next time, kill them if you need to.
[01:27] ---
    Got that, Takuya?
[01:30] ---
    Yes.
[03:11] ---
    Naoya!
[03:14] ---
    Brother...
[03:16] ---
    Good... You're safe.
[03:19] ---
    Yeah. You, too.
[03:21] ---
    Where are we?
[03:31] ---
    Mikuriya, I'm sure.
[03:33] ---
    Let's go see him.
[03:39] ---
    What's she doing here?
[03:44] ---
    Emily-san!
[03:50] ---
    She disappeared?
[03:52] ---
    Let's go.
[04:07] ---
    Naoto. Naoya.
[04:10] ---
    I'm happy to see you again.
[04:12] ---
    What were you thinking?
    Why did you lie to us?!
[04:16] ---
    Lie to you?
[04:18] ---
    You said the world would wake up
    to the existence of spiritual energy.
[04:21] ---
    That telepathy, future sight, and
    telekinesis would all be accepted
[04:24] ---
    as things humans have
    always been capable of!
[04:27] ---
    That's what you said!
[04:28] ---
    Was that all a lie?
[04:30] ---
    It wasn't a lie—
[04:31] ---
    The hell it wasn't! They tried to kill us!
[04:35] ---
    And they were fellow psychics!
[04:37] ---
    That's the opposite
    of the world you described.
[04:39] ---
    Is this the world you
    spoke of, Mikuriya-san?
[04:43] ---
    Naoto, Naoya, we all have a role to play.
[04:50] ---
    A role?
[04:52] ---
    What that role is...
[04:55] ---
    only becomes clear when the time is right.
[04:58] ---
    Give it a rest!
[04:59] ---
    That's got nothing to do with us.
[05:02] ---
    Answer me, Mikuriya!
[05:08] ---
    In the year 2023, something
    big happened on Earth.
[05:14] ---
    Dimensional Travel.
[05:16] ---
    Dimensional Travel?
[05:23] ---
    One day, two-thirds of mankind
    suddenly disappeared.
[05:28] ---
    They moved to a dimension not our own.
[05:31] ---
    What?
[05:31] ---
    What do you mean?
[05:34] ---
    One-third were left behind, in this world.
[05:38] ---
    A major change took place on Earth.
[05:41] ---
    Do you expect us to believe that?
[05:48] ---
    The ones who underwent
    the Dimensional Travel
[05:50] ---
    were those who could
    accept spiritual energy.
[05:53] ---
    Dimensional Travel... where did they go?
[05:56] ---
    Earth.
[05:58] ---
    You're telling me they went
    to the past or the future?
[06:00] ---
    No. Another Earth.
[06:03] ---
    Another Earth?
[06:05] ---
    The outside world you saw
    is a world left behind.
[06:09] ---
    It, too, is Earth.
[06:11] ---
    What are you talking about?
[06:12] ---
    We... and the rest of mankind...
    are on the Earth that was left behind?
[06:20] ---
    Yes.
[06:21] ---
    But you're different.
    You accepted the change.
[06:26] ---
    Your powers are proof.
[06:30] ---
    Misaki-san once told me that
     this huge change was coming.
[06:37] ---
    It was with his guidance that I was able to
    create this lab and bring you here.
[06:43] ---
    How could you be so selfish?!
[06:45] ---
    That wasn't what we wanted!
[06:47] (Flashback) ---
    Naoto! Naoya!
[06:49] (Flashback) ---
    Mom! Dad!
[06:53] ---
    I'm sorry.
[06:55] ---
    But it was something this world needed.
[06:59] ---
    "Needed" how?
[07:01] ---
    The world "needed" us separated
    from our parents and brought here?
[07:06] ---
    Countless people disappeared,
[07:07] ---
    and a world that denied the existence
    of spiritual energy was left behind.
[07:11] ---
    You were tricked, too!
[07:12] ---
    That stuff about "roles" is a fantasy!
[07:14] ---
    Naoto, it's true.
[07:17] ---
    On that day, in that moment, in 2014...
[07:20] ---
    You underwent Dimensional Travel.
[07:24] ---
    Sooner than anyone...
[07:26] ---
    You left in front of my very eyes.
[07:38] ---
    You vanished from this Earth once
[07:41] ---
    in a precursor to Dimensional Travel.
[07:45] ---
    You're lying. I don't remember any of that.
[07:49] ---
    You accepted the existence
    of spiritual energy.
[07:52] ---
    Why can't you believe it?
[07:57] ---
    I don't understand, either...
[07:59] ---
    But Mikuriya-san doesn't
    seem to be lying to us.
[08:07] ---
    The time had come for the old Earth
    to go to another dimension.
[08:12] ---
    To become an Earth where
    the spiritual world was accepted.
[08:14] ---
    Where the spiritual world was accepted?
[08:17] ---
    Yes.
[08:18] ---
    On the other Earth, spiritual energy
    is a part of normal life.
[08:22] ---
    Society is based around
    a deep understanding of it.
[08:27] ---
    It's a wonderful world,
    with no war and no borders.
[08:31] ---
    It's the world I spoke of to you,
[08:34] ---
    and the world where you should be,
    alongside your parents.
[08:39] ---
    But it's also true that there are
    those not worthy of that world.
[08:45] ---
    Thus, the planet's will left them in
     their old dimension before it left.
[08:53] ---
    There are two Earths? Two worlds?
[08:56] ---
    We're on a world that's obsessed
    with the physical world
[09:00] ---
    and isolated from the world of the spirit.
[09:03] ---
    A world left behind.
[09:07] ---
    This world is just as you've seen it.
[09:11] ---
    A small number of people
    who worship the physical world
[09:15] ---
    maintain control of society through
    the denial of the spiritual one.
[09:21] ---
    Materialism. Money. Power.
    They obsess over these things.
[09:25] ---
    Combat. Competition. Poverty and riches.
    All these things only grow more intense.
SIGN    The World is Physical
[09:31] ---
    Mikuriya, you said we left.
[09:35] ---
    If that's true, what are we doing here?
[09:39] ---
    It was his last words.
[09:41] ---
    Misaki-san left me a request,
    to bring you back here once more.
[09:48] ---
    Bring us back here?
[09:50] ---
    Was this Misaki-san a psychic?
[09:53] ---
    The fact that I'm talking to you right now
[09:56] ---
    is because I acted in accordance with
     his last words—no, his prophecy.
SIGN    The Year 2022
[10:08] (Flashback) ---
    It's finally time.
[10:12] (Flashback) ---
    Are you alright?
[10:15] (Flashback) ---
    Mikuriya, Misaki-san's last words.
    Do you still believe them?
[10:20] (Flashback) ---
    Of course.
[10:22] (Flashback) ---
    Others have made
    similar prophecies, right?
[10:26] (Flashback) ---
    Yes. But it's hard for the
    people to believe in them.
[10:30] (Flashback) ---
    Some psychics cling to
     the material world, too.
[10:34] (Flashback) ---
    Wealth, power, pleasure...
[10:38] (Flashback) ---
    Once a human tastes these things,
    they become an obsession.
[10:43] (Flashback) ---
    In the story of Noah's Ark,
    those left behind all die.
[10:48] (Flashback) ---
    Still, you're going to
    save those left behind?
[10:53] (Flashback) ---
    That's the role that
    Misaki-san showed us we had.
[11:00] (Flashback) ---
    Losyukov, everyone in this
    world has a role to play.
[11:06] (Flashback) ---
    Continue in your efforts.
[11:07] (Flashback) ---
    Of course.
[11:14] ---
    On that day in 2023, July 25th,
SIGN    July 25th, 2023
[11:19] ---
    I was with Losyukov in Russia.
[11:24] ---
    Just as Misaki-san's prophecy told us to,
[11:25] ---
    I spent the night in the lab,
    and then went outside.
[11:30] ---
    I checked the date,
    and three months had passed.
[11:36] ---
    Those left behind had no memories
    of the last three months.
[11:41] ---
    Two-thirds of mankind suddenly vanished.
[11:45] ---
    And the world was plunged into chaos.
[11:50] ---
    Brother...
[11:51] ---
    Yeah. Tachibana-san said the same thing.
[11:56] ---
    They all had their own role to play
    when they appeared before you.
[12:04] ---
    And now that they've played their role,
[12:08] ---
    they've gone where they belong.
[12:11] ---
    Shoko Futami was the same.
[12:15] ---
    Bringing you back to the world
    you've left behind...
[12:21] ---
    That was my role,
[12:24] ---
    and as Misaki-san's
    prophecy said, I met her.
[12:29] ---
    I needed her to bring you back.
[12:33] ---
    Shoko's mind had, unfortunately,
    connected to higher dimensions,
[12:37] ---
    and was wandering
    the distortions of space-time.
[12:41] ---
    Sometimes her messages were also intended
[12:44] ---
    for the people left behind in this world.
[12:52] (Flashback) ---
    I'm done setting up Shoko and the kids.
[12:55] (Flashback) ---
    Connect them immediately!
[12:56] (Flashback) ---
    Hurry! Mikuriya is leaving us!
[12:58] (Flashback) ---
    Roger that.
[13:01] ---
    As Misaki-san's prophecy said,
[13:05] ---
    I used the power of Shoko and eight
    other children to bring you back,
[13:12] ---
    creating an intermediary world
    between the two Earths.
[13:31] (Flashback) ---
    Did it work?
[13:56] (Flashback) ---
    Let us go home...
[13:57] (Flashback) ---
    We're going home!
[14:00] (Flashback) ---
    We're going home!
[14:07] (Flashback) ---
    Naoto... Naoya...
[14:18] ---
    You came back.
[14:20] ---
    Time began to flow again from that moment!
[14:23] ---
    And you expect us to believe that?
[14:27] ---
    I was given time to raise you!
[14:31] ---
    In this lab in the intermediary world...
[14:34] ---
    Intermediary world...
[14:37] ---
    Naoto, Naoya. You weren't left behind.
[14:41] ---
    You came back to play your role.
[14:43] ---
    Selfish drivel! You're the one who brought us—
[14:45] ---
    What is our role?
[14:48] ---
    To rescue those in this world
    who are left behind,
[14:51] ---
    but who are worthy of the other world.
[14:55] ---
    Rescue?
[14:56] ---
    Rescue the people of this world,
    who hate and mock us?
[15:00] ---
    That's right.
[15:00] ---
    The people who disappeared,
    and our parents, are in the other world.
[15:05] ---
    If you're there, there's
    no need for conflict.
[15:08] ---
    We have peaceful lives to live there.
[15:11] ---
    That's right.
[15:12] ---
    Bullshit!
[15:13] ---
    We don't want this role!
[15:16] ---
    We just...
[15:17] ---
    Brother...
[15:18] ---
    We just wanted a normal life!
[15:23] ---
    That's... That's all!
[15:28] ---
    So you're telling us to sacrifice ourselves,
[15:30] ---
    to stay in this world and play out our role?
[15:34] ---
    You made this place just to bring us back?
[15:38] ---
    Send us back to our world!
[15:41] ---
    Sacrifice... yes.
[15:44] ---
    Sometimes a role requires pain.
[15:47] ---
    Pain?
[15:48] ---
    Yes.
[15:49] ---
    For the sake of those left behind...
    share in their pain and suffering.
[16:04] ---
    Shit!
[16:05] ---
    Hey, don't get so angry.
[16:07] ---
    I'm not angry!
[16:13] ---
    It's really bugging him, huh?
[16:17] ---
    We let 'em get away again, huh?
[16:20] ---
    Michio and I didn't last an instant.
[16:22] ---
    We need some more training, I guess.
[16:25] ---
    Reika, who do you think they are?
[16:30] ---
    Psychics.
[16:32] ---
    That, I know.
[16:33] ---
    Criminals. A threat to society.
[16:35] ---
    That's what our bosses say, at least.
[16:37] ---
    Right?
[16:46] ---
    Shield!
[16:54] ---
    You've gotten better at controlling it.
[16:57] ---
    Control the information that comes
    in from the outside, like that.
[17:01] ---
    Right.
[17:02] ---
    Control the flood of information coming in.
    Just take what you need.
[17:07] ---
    I can't go see it myself?
[17:09] ---
    I think it's possible.
    But don't dive too deep.
[17:14] ---
    A desire to know will make
    your power stronger.
[17:17] ---
    But it also puts more stress on your brain.
[17:20] ---
    It's dangerous to go too deep.
[17:21] ---
    Understood. But I want to try it.
[17:26] ---
    You're greedy, huh?
[17:28] ---
    Very well. Focus your sights
    on what you what to know.
[17:34] ---
    And concentrate over a wide area.
[17:44] (Flashback) ---
    Takuya, Yuya!
[17:46] (Flashback) ---
    I've brought you some soda.
[17:49] ---
    The information I want...
[17:52] ---
    Yes. What you want to know.
[18:11] (Flashback) ---
    We don't have a choice.
[18:27] (Flashback) ---
    Please. Rethink this!
[18:31] ---
    Yuya, stop it!
[18:33] ---
    No deeper!
[18:50] (Flashback) ---
    Yuko! Yuko!
[18:55] ---
    Yuya!
[18:56] ---
    Yuya! Wake up!
[19:00] ---
    You okay?
[19:01] ---
    Yes.
[19:03] ---
    I'll send medics right away.
[19:04] ---
    Do it.
[19:08] ---
    Incredible power...
[19:10] ---
    He can replay the memories
    in his subconscious so clearly...
[19:15] ---
    No ordinary psychic can do that.
[19:19] ---
    But... why are the Kirihara Brothers
    inside Yuya's memories?
[19:27] ---
    There's something I want to show you.
[19:31] ---
    What is it?
[19:36] ---
    What is that?
[19:38] ---
    A notebook of Shoko's.
[19:41] ---
    It should help you.
[19:44] ---
    Shoko-san's notebook?
[20:04] ---
    Naoto, Naoya...
[20:07] ---
    The years I spent with you are my treasure.
[20:13] ---
    I thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
[20:18] ---
    Mikuriya-san...
[20:33] ---
    Naoto. Naoya. I'm counting on you.
[20:37] ---
    Please... this Earth... this world...
[20:42] ---
    Use your power to...
[20:45] ---
    What are you even saying we can do?!
[20:50] ---
    Mikuriya?
[21:03] ---
    Brother...
[21:04] ---
    I don't know what our role is.
[21:07] ---
    But if there's something we can do...
