[00:07] Kyo
    Fine.
[00:08] Kazuya
    Huh?
[00:10] Kyo
    I said fine.
[00:13] Kyo
    Pick the date and time you want to go.
[00:26] Jun
    Oh, the monorail left.
[00:28] Michitaka
    You just realized?
[00:28] Kazuya
    Seriously?!
[00:28] Jun
    Say something, Michitaka.
[00:30] Michitaka
    Oh, uh, sorry... Me?
[00:32] Jun
    Yeah, you.
SIGN    The Emperor Loves That Color #20AEE5
[00:42] Kazuya
    You think this shirt is okay?
[00:44] Jun
    This isn't a date, you know.
[00:47] Jun
    More importantly, do you have tissues?
[00:49] Jun
    Your handkerchief?
[00:50] Kazuya
    You sound like your mom.
[00:53] Jun
    Also, Michitaka has a message for you.
[00:55] Michitaka
    "Beware the hannya's jealousy."
[00:57] Kazuya
    The hannya?
[00:58] Jun
    Oh!
[01:00] Jun
    It's already 11:27!
[01:01] Kazuya
    Crap! I'm gonna be late!
[01:22] Kazuya
    H-He's really something, huh?
[01:24] Kazuya
    He was already working as a pro
    Artist before starting high school.
[01:29] Kazuya
    Which is pretty special considering
    the issue of a license, huh?
[01:33] Kyo
    The first piece is apparently
    one he did with Yura.
[01:37] Kazuya
    Yura? Yura-senpai?
[01:39] Kyo
    Yura Takumi.
[01:41] Kyo
    He was Haijima's partner
    during the Staircaser Contest.
[01:44] Kazuya
    Oh.
[01:46] Kazuya
    Oh yeah, Yura-senpai did say
    he had a little brother.
[01:50] Kyo
    You've spoken with him?
[01:52] Kazuya
    Yeah. The Scribb—
[01:55] Kazuya
    At the Staircaser Contest,
    he praised our Perception Art.
[02:02] Kyo
    Oh?
[02:05] Kazuya
    But why Yura?
[02:07] Kazuya
    I heard that a pro Grader
    worked on all the pieces here.
[02:24] Kazuya
    This is...
[02:34] [SONG] Lyrics
    Everything, everywhere, overflowing
[02:40] [SONG] Lyrics
    Anima interwoven with inspiration
[02:46] [SONG] Lyrics
    Wait with bated breath
[02:47] [SONG] Lyrics
    Instinct, I get to know
[02:49] [SONG] Lyrics
    So, an aching style
[02:51] [SONG] Lyrics
    We are moving forward
[02:54] [SONG] Lyrics
    So make something from nothing
[02:58] [SONG] Lyrics
    (Fight to feel it)
[03:00] [SONG] Lyrics
    Act on
[03:01] [SONG] Lyrics
    The shine flying around the depths of emotion
[03:07] [SONG] Lyrics
    Pierced my heart
[03:11] [SONG] Lyrics
    EVOCATIVE
[03:13] [SONG] Lyrics
    Continually enticing the refrain of joy
[03:19] [SONG] Lyrics
    The world is in my hands, release, inspire
[03:36] Kyo
    Are you all right?
[03:39] Kazuya
    Y-Yeah.
[03:42] Kazuya
    Wow...
[04:47] Kazuya
    Wow...
[04:48] Kyo
    The power of Perception Art
    to affect people's senses...
[04:53] Kyo
    Haijima Iori is an Artist
    who can demonstrate that to the fullest.
[05:03] Boy B
    It feels like it's gotten colder!
[05:04] Kyo
    The glare and the cold...
[05:05] Boy C
    Yeah, it's cold!
[05:07] Kyo
    He created all of this.
[05:12] Kyo
    For better or worse,
[05:14] Kyo
    Haijima can control what people
    feel for a brief moment.
[05:19] Kyo
    He's a rare Perception Artist.
[05:53] Crowd
    Wow, is that magic?
[05:55] Crowd
    I feel dizzy.
[05:57] Crowd
    Are you okay?
[06:09] Boy A
    Look at that bird!
[06:11] Boy A
    Wait, wait!
[06:22] Boy's Mom
    Are you all right?
[06:23] Boy B
    Oh, it's Mr. Magician!
[06:26] Boy C
    You're right!
[06:27] Boy B
    Hey, I wanna do Perception Art too!
[06:30] Iori
    You should try it someday.
[06:35] Iori
    Hey.
[06:38] Kyo
    You still like to put on a show, huh?
[06:41] Iori
    You don't get it, do you?
[06:44] Iori
    I like me.
[06:46] Kyo
    I know.
[06:54] Iori
    I heard from Mikuriya and Kirinoe
[06:56] Iori
    that you're here to see me?
[06:58] Kazuya
    I'm Yamanashi Kazuya!
[07:00] Iori
    Yamanashi?
[07:06] Iori
    Oh?
[07:09] Iori
    So it was you...
[07:11] Iori
    back then.
[07:15] Kazuya
    Huh?
[07:28] Iori
    Oh, don't worry about that.
[07:30] Iori
    He's just a stalker.
[07:31] Kazuya
    A stalker?!
[07:33] Iori
    He's been my fan since I debuted.
[07:35] Iori
    Then, before I realized it, he'd bought
    a sponsorship for my exhibition
[07:39] Iori
    and even managed to become my partner.
[07:43] Takumi
    I can use my pocket money however I want.
[07:46] Kazuya
    You're a sponsor?
[07:48] Kazuya
    What's going on?
[07:49] Kyo
    The Yura family is preeminent
    in the art world.
[07:53] Kyo
    They're well off, with influence in lots
    of fields, not just Perception Art.
[07:59] Kyo
    The younger son is set
    to take over the family business.
[08:02] Kazuya
    You're saying he's super rich.
[08:05] Iori
    That has nothing to do with me, though.
[08:08] Iori
    I mean, I'll gratefully use what I can.
[08:12] Takumi
    It's fine if you just want my money.
[08:16] Takumi
    I will definitely become your
    exclusive Grader someday and—
[08:20] Iori
    That might be too ambitious for a rookie,
[08:24] Iori
    young master.
[08:27] Takumi
    Sorry.
[08:29] Kazuya
    He apologized?
[08:31] Iori
    You should get a Grader you can use, too.
[08:35] Iori
    Not like the hardheaded Takise.
[08:38] Kazuya
    Someone I can use?
[08:41] Kazuya
    Um, this might be weird for me to say,
[08:44] Kazuya
    but maybe you could treat Graders—
[08:46] Takumi
    Shut up, homewrecker.
[08:48] Kazuya
    Huh?
[08:49] Takumi
    I've seen so many people try
    to suck up to Iori-san like that.
[08:55] Takumi
    I've exterminated every single one of them.
[08:58] Kazuya
    "Exterminated"?!
[08:59] Kazuya
    Anyway, I'm not sucking up to him!
[09:02] Kazuya
    Hey, don't ignore me! Or glare at me!
[09:02] Kyo
    You make a good team.
[09:04] Kyo
    You should get him to
    be your exclusive Grader.
[09:06] Iori
    You know, don't you?
[09:07] Iori
    That I enjoy free love.
[09:11] Kyo
    I...
[09:13] Kyo
    hate Artists like you the most.
[09:34] Kazuya
    Should I not have asked you to come?
[09:37] Kyo
    It's fine. It's not so
    awkward after all this time.
[09:42] Kyo
    Haijima is talented.
[09:44] Kyo
    But he's arrogant.
[09:48] Kyo
    Teams where Artists hold the power will fail.
[09:52] Kyo
    He's probably satisfied
    just doing what he wants,
[09:55] Kyo
    but he doesn't know how dangerous that is.
[09:58] Kazuya
    Dangerous...? What do you mean?
[10:11] Kazuya
    Does it have something to do with
    why you wanted to become a Grader?
[10:20] Kazuya
    Kyo...
[10:22] Kyo
    Sorry, I'm going on home.
[10:41] Jun
    So, what about the Scribble?
[10:44] Jun
    Did you ask Haijima-senpai?
[10:46] Kazuya
    I forgot...
[10:47] Jun
    How could you?!
[10:50] Iori
    Ah, there you are.
[10:54] Iori
    Come with me for a moment, Yamanashi Kazuya.
[10:57] Kazuya
    Huh? But what about class?
[11:01] Iori
    Skip it.
[11:04] Chiharu
    Oh?
[11:06] Chiharu
    His Imperial Majesty of the Artist
    track is with Bell Pepper-kun.
[11:36] Kazuya
    Is this a studio?
[11:38] Iori
    Working in a cramped room doesn't suit me.
[11:45] Kazuya
    I-If you drew in a supported space
    like this, it'd be a Scribble, right...?
[11:51] Iori
    What? I've applied for permission, of course.
[11:58] Kazuya
    Um, to tell you the truth,
    I wanted to talk to you.
[12:01] Iori
    Yeah, Mikuriya and Kirinoe
    said something about that.
[12:05] Iori
    But everyone who wants an interview with me
    pays good money for the privilege.
[12:09] Kazuya
    That's not...
[12:13] Iori
    Enough about me.
[12:15] Iori
    Tell me about you two.
[12:16] Kazuya
    "You two"?
[12:18] Iori
    You're childhood friends, right?
[12:20] Iori
    You and my former partner.
[12:23] Kazuya
    Y-Yeah...
[12:25] Iori
    It's a strange feeling.
[12:28] Iori
    I've never seen Takise use his "don't
    bother me" shield on anyone other than me.
[12:31] Sign
    Stab
[12:32] Kazuya
    "Don't bother me" shield?
[12:35] Iori
    Did teaming up with him go that badly?
[12:42] Kazuya
    I'm not really sure myself...
[12:46] Kazuya
    There were ups and downs.
[12:50] Kazuya
    I feel like I'm at his mercy.
[12:56] Iori
    That's because you're
    too obsessed with Takise.
[13:00] Iori
    It's the same as being head over heels.
[13:02] Iori
    When we get too obsessed, we lose.
[13:04] Kazuya
    You can say that because you're so popular.
[13:08] Kazuya
    And Yura's weak, anyway.
[13:10] Kazuya
    Even the visitors called you a magician.
[13:16] Iori
    I'm no magician.
[13:20] Iori
    Perception Art isn't something
    that only belongs to an elite few.
[13:24] Iori
    Anyone can make it if they want.
[13:27] Iori
    They are the potential
    that brings new color to the world.
[13:40] Iori
    If you're going to be dejected
    either way, do what you want.
[13:43] Iori
    You have talent.
[13:44] Kazuya
    Huh?
[13:46] Kazuya
    Huh?!
[13:47] Iori
    Be grateful.
[13:49] Iori
    There are only three other Perception
    Artists whose talent I recognize.
[13:54] Kazuya
    Three...
[13:56] Kazuya
    Isn't that kind of a lot?
[13:57] Iori
    Two were my teachers.
[14:00] Kazuya
    Who's the third?
[14:13] Takumi
    Iori-san!
[14:15] Takumi
    I called you, but...
[14:16] Iori
    What happened?
[14:18] Takumi
    There's a problem.
[14:23] Michitaka
    That performance art piece
    that you went to see, Kazuya?
[14:26] Sign
    Haijima Iori Exhibition
[14:27] Michitaka
    There was a complaint involving a child
    who almost got hurt while watching.
[14:31] Michitaka
    It looks like the organizers and Grader
[14:32] Michitaka
    are going to impose an age limit
    on visitors to the exhibition.
[14:39] Kazuya
    An age limit?!
[14:40] Jun
    Well, they can't just shut it down.
[14:44] Jun
    It's the showpiece of the exhibit.
[14:53] Takumi
    I'll go back first.
[14:54] Takumi
    There's something I need to do.
[14:56] Iori
    Okay.
[15:03] Jun
    Scary.
[15:04] Iori
    Ambushing me like this...
[15:06] Iori
    Getting back at me for this afternoon?
[15:08] Kazuya
    I was worried about your exhibition.
[15:14] Kazuya/Jun
    You're removing it?!
[15:16] Jun
    You're going to stop doing
    the performance completely?
[15:18] Iori
    Yeah.
[15:20] Iori
    The performance itself
[15:22] Iori
    and the audience viewing
    it are part of the work.
[15:26] Iori
    The goal was for anyone with the desire
[15:30] Iori
    to experience seeing and
    drawing Perception Art.
[15:34] Iori
    If we impose a limit,
[15:36] Iori
    that's out the window.
[15:38] Iori
    It won't be my work anymore.
[15:43] Iori
    Perception Art colors the world.
[15:46] Iori
    Even if something gets colored over...
[15:49] Iori
    Even then, I wouldn't erase the new color
    that might be born from it.
[15:56] Kazuya
    The new color...?
[16:00] Jun
    Kazuya?
[16:01] Kazuya
    In that case, you shouldn't
    stop the performance.
[16:05] Iori
    What?
[16:06] Kazuya
    You'd ultimately be stealing the potential
[16:10] Kazuya
    of anyone who might be moved by it
    or have dreams for the future.
[16:28] Iori
    That's good.
[16:30] Iori
    Help me, Kazuya.
[16:42] Kyo
    You two sure are looking friendly.
[16:45] Chiharu
    Well, Nanba brought some
    interesting information.

    Perception Artist Haijima Iori opens his private studio free to the public!
[16:56] Sign
    Opening an outdoor gallery without notice?
[16:56] Sign
    Doesn't Haijima Iori have an exhibition out right now?
[16:57] Sign
    I went to it!
[16:58] Sign
    There was a long line
[17:04] Jun
    While wearing Goggles, make sure
    you stay with your moms and dads!
[17:08] Kazuya
    When you want to touch something,
    pay attention to your surroundings.
[17:11] Kazuya
    Make sure you don't fall!
[17:12] Kids
    Okay!
[17:15] Mom A
    This is great. My child wanted to see this.
[17:18] Mom B
    Mine too!
[17:21] Iori
    Perception Art isn't a fantasy. It's reality.
[17:24] Iori
    It was born from the world
    we stand in. It's real.
[17:28] Iori
    That's what's scary about it. But...
[17:32] Kid
    It's fun!
[17:34] Iori
    Right?
[17:42] Iori
    Who could it be?
[17:45] Yanagi
    It's Yanagi.
[17:46] Yanagi
    There's been a complaint
    from your exhibit organizers.
[17:49] Yanagi
    They're very upset you decided
    to open your studio for free
[17:52] Yanagi
    while the exhibition is ongoing.
[17:55] Iori
    They're so greedy.
[17:58] Yanagi
    You understand, don't you?
[18:01] Yanagi
    Until you graduate from Eisen,
[18:03] Yanagi
    it's like you're driving
    with a provisional license.
[18:06] Yanagi
    If you keep brute-forcing things now,
[18:09] Yanagi
    they might prevent you from getting
    a real license down the line.
[18:15] Iori
    My job is to draw things.
[18:17] Iori
    The rest is my Grader's job, isn't it?
[18:20] Kazuya
    You mean...
[18:24] Iori
    If he were just a stalker,
[18:27] Iori
    there's no way I'd keep him around, right?
[18:30] Organizer
    Hey!
[18:33] Iori
    He's...
[18:37] Iori
    a man worthy of my favor.
[18:44] Takumi
    This is a contract
    for the purchase of the exhibit.
[18:47] Organizer
    You're just a student with no official
    license. What are you saying—
[18:51] Takumi
    I'm not purchasing it as a Grader.
[18:53] Takumi
    This is a personal purchase
    by me, Yura Takumi.
[18:57] Takumi
    If you're going to be involved in art,
[18:59] Takumi
    then not listening to those who are upset
    and taking the easy way out
[19:04] Takumi
    wrongs both sides.
[19:06] Takumi
    You can't just pretend
    something didn't happen.
[19:09] Takumi
    That's why, in order to safeguard
     what's important,
[19:14] Takumi
    do not deny an opportunity
    for dialogue and improvement.
[19:17] Organizer
    What are you saying is important?
[19:21] Takumi
    Haijima Iori.
[19:24] Takumi
    And the new possibilities created
    by the people who see his works.
[19:28] Takumi
    Haijima Iori is the future of Perception Art.
[19:31] Takumi
    In order to protect him,
    I will spare no expense.
[19:55] Takumi
    Did you need something?
[19:56] Kazuya
    He waited to thank you for
    what you did, didn't he?
[19:59] Kazuya
    I'm glad you got his approval.
[20:01] Takumi
    This doesn't concern you.
[20:04] Kazuya
    Hey, is that the only way
    you know how to talk?
[20:08] Kazuya
    I thought it was amazing,
    so you could at least hear me out.
[20:12] Takumi
    Stop saying "amazing" like it
    doesn't mean anything. Iori-san is—
[20:16] Kazuya
    It's not just him.
[20:22] Kazuya
    You're amazing, too.
[20:23] Takumi
    Huh?
[20:25] Kazuya
    What you did for Iori-senpai and that piece
[20:28] Kazuya
    wasn't magic or a miracle.
[20:31] Kazuya
    Because of Graders like you, we...
[20:37] Kazuya
    You know, you really are a partner
    Haijima-senpai can be proud of.
[20:45] Takumi
    That's not true.
[21:01] (Flashback) Iori (young)
    Wow!
[21:05] (Flashback) Iori (young)
    That's amazing!
[21:06] (Flashback) Iori (young)
    You're like magicians!
[21:10] (Flashback) Akari
    We're no magicians.
[21:12] (Flashback) Akari
    Perception Art doesn't just
    belong to an elite few.
[21:16] (Flashback) Akari
    Anyone can make it if they want.
[21:20] (Flashback) Naoki
    That's right.
[21:21] (Flashback) Naoki
    They are the potential
    that brings new color to the world.
[21:29] Iori
    Those eyes look the same...
[21:45] Kazuya
    Huh? Kyo?
[21:49] Kazuya
    What are you doing here—
[21:50] Kyo
    What about you? What were you doing?
[21:51] Kazuya
    Huh?
[21:53] Kyo
    What are you planning,
    sticking so close to Haijima?
[21:57] Kazuya
    Kyo?
[22:01] Kazuya
    Sorry. I know you two don't get along.
[22:06] Kazuya
    But he's not so bad.
[22:09] Kyo
    So does that mean you'd suck up to anyone?
[22:12] Kazuya
    What?!
[22:16] Kazuya
    Fine, I'll tell you what's going on.
[22:24] Kazuya
    Yura-senpai is looking for someone,
[22:27] Kazuya
    and I said I wanted to help.
[22:30] Kazuya
    I wanted to talk to Haijima-senpai
[22:32] Kazuya
    because I thought he might be
    who we're looking for.
[22:36] Kazuya
    But he isn't, after all.
[22:39] Kazuya
    Kyo, you don't happen to know, do you?
[22:41] Kazuya
    Who drew the Scribble
    at the observatory in the woods?
[22:50] Kyo
    Stop hanging around Haijima.
[22:52] Kazuya
    Huh?
[22:54] Kyo
    He's a bad influence on you.
[22:57] Kyo
    Don't talk to him anymore.
[22:58] Kazuya
    What the heck?
[23:00] Kazuya
    Haijima-senpai's an amazing guy.
[23:02] Kazuya
    As an Artist—
[23:03] Kyo
    I'm saying you shouldn't
    become an Artist like him!
[23:07] Kyo
    Having a name that sells isn't all good.
[23:10] Kyo
    You should understand now, right?
[23:12] Kyo
    If something happens,
