[00:03] Nakashizu
    Yamanashi Kazuya, was it?
[00:05] Kazuya
    Hello.
[00:06] Daiki
    He said himself that he wants to do this,
[00:09] Daiki
    so it's perfect!
[00:10] Nakashizu
    You mean to say...
[00:12] Nakashizu
    You'll be taking full responsibility,
    right, Daiki?
[00:15] Daiki
    Huh?!
[00:16] Daiki
    Yeah, I guess so...
[00:20] Yanagi
    There's a time limit on finding the culprit,
[00:23] Yanagi
    so we'd appreciate the help.
[00:25] Kazuya
    A limit? The space update?
[00:28] Yanagi
    Yeah. The unsaved data in
    the supported space we're using now
[00:33] Yanagi
    will all be deleted at
    the end of this semester.
[00:37] Nakashizu
    So, will you do it?
[00:40] Kazuya
    Yes, sir!
SIGN    Gray Thunder #6E60A8
[02:21] Michitaka
    This is amazing.
[02:22] Jun
    Yeah.
[02:24] Jun
    You said you saw that wolf in this Scribble?
[02:27] Kazuya
    Yeah.
[02:28] Kazuya
    It was the same image I felt
    in the work my parents left behind.
[02:32] Kazuya
    Why in the world...?
[02:37] Jun
    So that's why you said you'd
    find whoever drew this.
[02:41] Michitaka
    Did you have them check the history?
[02:42] Kazuya
    Yeah.
[02:43] Kazuya
    The oldest part was drawn two years ago.
[02:47] Michitaka
    Which means the culprit is a third-year, huh?
[02:49] Jun
    Oh, really?
[02:50] Kazuya
    It's highly likely.
[02:52] Jun
    Still, a third-year Artist?
[02:55] Jun
    Do you know how many suspects that makes?
[02:59] Kazuya
    That's why I'm asking for your help!
[03:04] Jun
    Hmm...
[03:05] Jun
    I could go for that chocolate-covered
    popcorn from PonPon Shoppe.
[03:09] Jun
    It'd be great to have some every day.
[03:12] Kazuya
    You're such a glutton! Fine, I'll do it!
[03:15] Michitaka
    You were going to help anyway, weren't you?
[03:23] Kazuya
    The negative emotions I feel
     from this Scribble...
[03:26] Kazuya
    The negative image...
[03:32] Kazuya
    It looks like whoever drew this was angry.
[03:35] Kazuya
    Like he couldn't get over something
    and he was trying to attack it.
[03:38] Jun
    They were angry, huh?
[03:40] Jun
    You can tell, right, Kazuya?
[03:42] Jun
    More than what we can see
    using Frames and Goggles.
[03:46] Jun
    You can tell what the person who drew
    this was feeling and what they're like.
[03:50] Michitaka
    Just how clearly can you feel it?
[03:53] Kazuya
    It's not clear at all.
[03:54] Kazuya
    It's pretty abstract.
[03:56] Kazuya
    But...
[03:58] Kazuya
    I want to know...
[03:59] Kazuya
    Why is that wolf inside this Scribble?
[04:05] Jun
    All right! Where do we start?
[04:07] Michitaka
    What about Takise-senpai?
[04:09] Kazuya/Jun
    Huh?!
[04:09] Jun
    Are you saying Kyo's the culprit?
[04:11] Michitaka
    No. He knows a lot about the work
    of Kazuya's parents, right?
[04:15] Kazuya
    Oh... Hmm...
[04:21] Kazuya
    Let's not.
[04:22] Kazuya
    If it has something to do with my parents,
[04:25] Kazuya
    all the more reason not to get Kyo involved.
[04:27] Michitaka
    I see.
[04:28] Jun
    Then is our only option to go through
    the third-year Artists one by one after all?
[04:36] Michitaka
    It's a really impressive piece.
[04:38] Michitaka
    Maybe the one who drew it
    was a Staircaser candidate...
[04:42] Kazuya/Jun
    What?!
[04:53] Kazuya
    Ikaruga-senpai, was it?
[04:56] Michitaka
    Yeah. He seems like
    the easiest one to approach.
[04:58] Jun
    He does.
[05:00] Kazuya
    But would he graffiti like that?
[05:03] Michitaka
    People do say you have to watch out
    for the quiet ones when they lose it.
[05:10] Kazuya
    Man, really?
[05:11] Michitaka
    That's not very nice.
[05:15] Kazuya
    Oh, I remember that!
[05:17] Kazuya
    When I was a kid, I spilled juice on that
    book and my mom got really mad at me!
[05:22] Michitaka
    You'd have to pay a premium to get it now.
[05:25] Jun
    Twenty thousand yen?!
[05:26] Kazuya
    Seriously?! We've got a copy at home.
[05:27] Jun
    Don't you go selling it!
[05:40] Jun
    Hey, wait!
[05:53] Kazuya
    Ikaruga-senpai!
[05:54] Jun
    Carry him, Michitaka!
[05:56] Michitaka
    Right!
[06:06] Jun
    Hey, he's awake.
[06:07] Jun
    Kazuya!
[06:10] Anjyu
    I'm...
[06:13] Anjyu
    You guys brought me here?
[06:15] Kazuya
    You suddenly fell over.
    Really gave us a scare.
[06:20] Kazuya
    It was on the classroom floor.
[06:26] Anjyu
    Thank goodness...
    This book's important to me.
[06:31] Anjyu
    Thank you for your help.
    If you'll excuse me...
[06:36] Kazuya
    Senpai!
[06:37] Michitaka
    Please hang in there!
[06:39] Jun
    Wh-What should we do?!
[06:43] Kazuya
    Are you all right?
[06:45] Anjyu
    It's a stress ulcer...
[06:47] Kazuya/Jun/Michitaka
    Stress?
[06:48] Anjyu
    I was stressed about the piece
    I entered in the Staircaser Contest.
[06:53] Kazuya
    The Staircaser Contest?
[06:55] Kazuya
    Your partner was...
[06:57] Kazuya
    Oh.
[06:58] Jun
    Your favorite person!
[07:00] Michitaka
    Sakaki-senpai.
[07:01] Kazuya
    Stop that.
[07:05] Kazuya
    Was he the cause of your stress?
[07:09] Jun
    Your piece was...
[07:17] Anjyu
    I don't understand.
[07:19] Anjyu
    Why did he put it in that Frame?
[07:21] Jun
    What?! He did it without asking?!
[07:24] Anjyu
    Yes.
[07:26] Kazuya
    That's overstepping his authority!
[07:29] Anjyu
    No, it's fine...
[07:31] Kazuya
    It's not fine!
[07:33] Kazuya
    Let's go tell him off!
[07:44] Chiharu
    What is it, Bell Pepper-kun?
[07:45] Kazuya
    What'd you call me?
[07:47] Chiharu
    Are you all here on business?
[07:49] Kazuya
    We came to talk to you about something!
[07:51] Kazuya
    Now, give it to him!
[07:53] Anjyu
    Uh... um... well...
[07:56] Chiharu
    You're the one who wanted to talk, Ikaruga?
[07:59] Kazuya
    Senpai, you added stuff to
    Ikaruga-senpai's Perception Art
[08:03] Kazuya
    for the contest without
     permission, didn't you?
[08:05] Chiharu
    I guess it depends on how
    you define "adding stuff."
[08:09] Kazuya
    To use such a distinctive Frame
    without consulting the Artist
[08:12] Kazuya
    is infringing on the Artist's work!
[08:14] Chiharu
    When you put it that way,
    it hurts my feelings.
[08:17] Kazuya
    Ikaruga-senpai's the one who's hurt!
[08:21] Chiharu
    You're saying Ikaruga
    has a problem with my work?
[08:26] Anjyu
    Not a problem, per se...
[08:28] Chiharu
    Ikaruga, do you consider that piece a failure?
[08:33] Anjyu
    Huh?
[08:34] Chiharu
    You don't, do you?
[08:35] Chiharu
    It was a success, wasn't it?
[08:37] Chiharu
    In truth, a lot of people
    stopped in front of it, didn't they?
[08:41] Chiharu
    I did my job as a Grader,
    and the result was that piece.
[08:45] Chiharu
    We were praised for it.
[08:49] Chiharu
    I don't understand what
    you're unhappy about, Ikaruga.
[08:51] Kazuya
    Wha—
[08:54] Michitaka
    Hold it!
[08:59] Anjyu
    I don't care.
[09:02] Anjyu
    Even without that distinctive Frame
    to attract people,
[09:06] Anjyu
    I wouldn't care.
[09:08] Anjyu
    I... didn't create that piece
    for it to be judged.
[09:14] Anjyu
    I just... wanted to be able to draw.
[09:17] Chiharu
    Huh? What the hell?
[09:19] Chiharu
    By not wanting it to be judged,
[09:21] Chiharu
    you mean you don't want criticism?
[09:23] Chiharu
    Are there really people like that?
[09:29] Chiharu
    I think there's been a misunderstanding.
[09:32] Chiharu
    I'm satisfied with my own work.
[09:35] Chiharu
    If you say that you're not, then...
[09:47] Chiharu
    Doesn't that mean you
    weren't passionate enough?
[09:59] Kyo
    What are you doing?
[10:01] Kazuya
    Kyo!
[10:02] Kyo
    You again?
[10:05] Kyo
    Ikaruga, you don't look too good.
[10:07] Kyo
    Are you all right?
[10:08] Anjyu
    Yes...
[10:14] Kyo
    Don't play with him too much.
[10:16] Kyo
    He's straightforward, so if you try
    to take him head-on, he'll just tire you out.
[10:20] Chiharu
    Oh? You sound pretty different
    from when you were with Iori.
[10:23] Chiharu
    I didn't realize you were the type
     to take care of his toys.
[10:28] Kyo
    I've got nothing to do with him anymore.
[10:31] Chiharu
    Oh?
[10:42] Kazuya
    Senpai, sorry for doing something so selfish!
[10:45] Anjyu
    I'm also sorry that this happened
    because you were worried about me.
[10:49] Michitaka
    Jun, why are you downcast, too?
[10:51] Jun
    I feel like I've been affected
    too for some reason.
[10:54] Jun
    I'm pretty chatty,
[10:56] Jun
    but I wouldn't want to talk
    with Sakaki-senpai.
[10:58] Jun
    He's too scary.
[10:59] Michitaka
    An Artist's opinion, huh?
[11:01] Kazuya
    Michitaka?
[11:03] Michitaka
    I was just wondering why Sakaki-senpai
    teamed up with Ikaruga-senpai.
[11:08] Jun
    Because it was decided at the partner
    reselection meeting, right?
[11:10] Michitaka
    Well, yeah, but...
[11:14] (Flashback) Student
    M-Morning, Sakaki!
[11:18] (Flashback) Student
    Um, we're doing a group exhibition soon.
[11:21] (Flashback) Student B
    If you're okay with it, we'd like you to—
[11:24] (Flashback) Chiharu
    Can't. Sorry!
[11:28] Michitaka
    Sakaki-senpai is famous
    for considering talent
[11:31] Michitaka
    and not teaming up with
    anyone he's not interested in.
[11:36] Kazuya
    That's obnoxious.
[11:38] Kazuya
    Anyway, is there anyone weird enough
    to want to be his partner?
[11:42] Michitaka
    Sakaki-senpai can make his own Frames.
[11:45] Michitaka
    He's known for being
    able to give a piece new charm.
[11:48] Kazuya
    Even so, that Frame is
    invading the Artist's work!
[11:52] Jun
    Yeah!
[11:53] Michitaka
    I can't deny that, but...
[11:55] Kazuya
    But?
[11:57] Michitaka
    I'd be scared to add something like that.
[12:00] Michitaka
    How a Grader presents the work
[12:02] Michitaka
    can make it a masterpiece
    or a piece of trash.
[12:05] Michitaka
    You couldn't add a frame
    like that without thinking,
[12:08] Michitaka
    "Sink or swim, we're in this together."
[12:10] Kazuya
    So you think it's fine because
    he was trying to play up the piece?
[12:15] Michitaka
    I'm not saying it's fine...
[12:17] Anjyu
    Either way, it means that
    he didn't understand
[12:21] Anjyu
    the feelings I put into my work...
[12:25] Anjyu
    I like it when I get a wonderful idea
    and start drawing aimlessly.
[12:32] Anjyu
    In a picture, I can say decisively
    that I like what I like.
[12:35] Anjyu
    No one can criticize me.
[12:39] Anjyu
    What he said earlier... was right on the nose.
[12:43] Anjyu
    I don't want to be criticized.
    I'm scared of it.
[12:47] Anjyu
    I'm a terrible Artist.
[12:49] Kazuya
    Senpai...
[12:53] Kazuya
    Will you show us your Perception Art again?
[13:09] Jun
    Kazuya.
[13:10] Kazuya
    Yeah.

[14:24] Kazuya
    It really is amazing to create
    a piece with someone else.
[14:30] Kazuya
    With my partner,
    before we were even a team...
[14:33] Kazuya
    and afterward, for that matter,
    a lot happened between us.
[14:37] Kazuya
    Working together was hard
[14:39] Kazuya
    since he's strict and we butt heads.
[14:42] Kazuya
    But he was the one who thought
    about my Perception Art the most.
[14:48] Kazuya
    His feelings were in the piece,
[14:52] Kazuya
    and they reached me, too.
[14:54] Kazuya
    Artist and Grader relationships
    are complicated,
[14:57] Kazuya
    but I'm sure they all share the desire
[14:58] Kazuya
    for their piece to be as good as it can be!
[15:02] Kazuya
    You said that you didn't care
    if he understood,
[15:05] Kazuya
    but maybe it was different
    for Sakaki-senpai!
[15:07] Kazuya
    Maybe he thought that he wanted
    more people to see your work...
[15:11] Kazuya
    since he was your partner!
[15:41] Anjyu
    Will you come with me again?
[15:51] Anjyu
    Um...
[15:53] Anjyu
    Could I have a moment of your time?
[15:56] Chiharu
    You're here again?
[15:57] Chiharu
    What? Not brave enough to confess
    your love without your friends?
[16:03] Anjyu
    I wanted to talk...
[16:05] Anjyu
    since you were my partner on that piece.
[16:17] Anjyu
    I was shocked.
[16:18] Anjyu
    I thought, "Why did he use
    this kind of Frame?"
[16:21] Anjyu
    I want to know your reasoning for it.
[16:25] Chiharu
    Why do I have to tell you?
[16:27] Chiharu
    Tools should just be used obediently.
[16:31] Anjyu
    Don't you think you're bad
    at using those tools?
[16:35] Chiharu
    Huh?
[16:42] Anjyu
    A-Artists aren't tools.
[17:21] Chiharu
    If that's what you want, I'll destroy it!
[17:49] Anjyu
    Please stop! Don't do this!
[17:51] Chiharu
    The contest is over.
[17:53] Chiharu
    I can do whatever I like
    with my own work, right?
[17:55] Anjyu
    It's our work.
[17:57] Anjyu
    Yours and mine.
[17:59] Anjyu
    So you can't just destroy it.
[18:05] Anjyu
    I realized when I faced it again properly
[18:08] Anjyu
    that this Frame might've made
    what I wanted to draw,
[18:11] Anjyu
    what was important, stand out more.
[18:15] Anjyu
    That's why so many people stopped
    in front of this Perception Art.
[18:21] Anjyu
    I couldn't have done that alone.
[18:25] Anjyu
    Which is frustrating, actually...
[18:28] Chiharu
    Don't you think you're too serious, Ikaruga?
[18:30] Anjyu
    Huh?
[18:31] Chiharu
    You should just forget the piece
    you made with someone you hate.
[18:36] Anjyu
    I don't want to forget it.
[18:39] Anjyu
    Someday, I want to be able
    to say proudly that I like this piece.
[18:44] Anjyu
    That's what I started to think, so...
[18:48] Chiharu
    Really? Then I'll also try to remember
[18:50] Chiharu
    that there are Artists like you around.
[18:58] Chiharu
    But to say that you didn't care
    whether people saw it...
[19:01] Chiharu
    That was hurtful, even to me.
[19:10] Chiharu
    Hurry up and come to like it.
[19:28] Anjyu
    Unfortunately, I'm not the one
    who made that Scribble.
[19:33] Kazuya
    I didn't think so...
[19:34] Anjyu
    But I do often use plants
    and animals for my motifs,
[19:38] Anjyu
    so I might be able to help.
[19:42] Anjyu
    Wolves...
[19:44] Anjyu
    In Europe, they're often
    used in contrast with sheep
[19:46] Anjyu
    to represent sin or divine punishment.
[19:50] Anjyu
    But they're also used as symbols of the
    bonds of friendship or familial love.
[19:56] Anjyu
    If I figure something out that
    could help you find the culprit,
[20:00] Anjyu
    I'll let you know.
[20:02] Kazuya
    Thank you very much!
[20:06] Kazuya
    He looked like he had
    a weight off his shoulders, huh?
[20:09] Jun
    Yeah, thanks to you, Kazuya!
[20:12] Kazuya
    All I did was read the feelings that were
    already in that piece of Perception Art.
[20:16] Kazuya
    Nothing special.
[20:18] Michitaka
    I think that's pretty amazing, actually.
[20:21] Jun
    Anyhoo and anyhow, good work!
[20:23] Kazuya
    Cheers!
[20:29] Chiharu
    That Bell Pepper-kun...
[20:33] Chiharu
    He's not as straightforward as you said.
[20:36] Chiharu
    Aren't you just making him out that way?
[20:39] Chiharu
    You're twisted like that sometimes, Takise.
[20:42] Kyo
    Shut up.
[20:45] Chiharu
    Ooh, scary.
[22:22] Kazuya
    Good morning, Ikaruga-senpai!
[22:24] Anjyu
    Hey, thanks for yesterday.
[22:27] Jun
    Does your stomach still hurt?
[22:29] Anjyu
    No. Thanks to you all,
    it's gotten much better.
[22:45] Kyo
    Morning.
[22:51] Kazuya
    Morning! Morning, Kyo!
[22:55] Chiharu
    How admirable.
[23:02] Chiharu
    You look as dull as usual,
