**[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...
