[00:06] DAIKI
    It's been forever since we hung out
    at our parents' house, Takumi!
[00:10] DAIKI
    You never come unless
    there's a gathering like this.
[00:13] TAKUMI
    You're getting too excited.
[00:16] TAKUMI
    You're rather dressed up.
[00:18] DAIKI
    Huh? Oh, you mean this?
[00:20] DAIKI
    I'm going out later.
[00:23] TAKUMI
    Oh? Where are you going?
[00:24] DAIKI
    Anyway, you don't have to force yourself
    to attend a family dinner party.
[00:30] DAIKI
    Don't you have plans with your friends?
[00:33] TAKUMI
    I'm not forcing myself.
[00:35] TAKUMI
    You wanted to talk, right?
[00:37] TAKUMI
    We're the only ones in the family
    who know much about Perception Art.
[00:41] DAIKI
    Oh, uh...
[00:43] DAIKI
    Th-That's a pain, isn't it?
[00:46] DAIKI
    I'll explain it to everyone,
    so don't you worry about a thing.
[00:50] DAIKI
    You're welcome to bail, okay?
[00:53] TAKUMI
    You're acting like this again?
[00:55] DAIKI
    Takumi?
[00:58] TAKUMI
    Thanks for the food.

[03:00] KAZUYA
    Huh?
[03:03] KAZUYA
    Oh...
[03:12] KAZUYA
    Kyo.
[03:12] KYO
    Kazuya.
[03:19] KAZUYA
    What is it?
[03:20] KYO
    What were you going to say?
[03:21] KAZUYA
    Um, it's been a while.
[03:24] KYO
    It hasn't been that long
    since we last saw each other.
[03:26] KAZUYA
    It's already July.
    It's been a pretty long while.
[03:30] KAZUYA
    I'm glad you seem to be doing well.
[03:32] KYO
    You're making a big deal out of nothing.
[03:34] KAZUYA
    I'm surprised, though.
    I didn't think you'd be here.
[03:38] KYO
    We always celebrated your mom's
    birthday with a party, didn't we?
[03:43] KAZUYA
    You remember!
[03:44] KYO
    I do.
[03:52] KAZUYA
    What are you doing over summer break?
[03:54] KYO
    I don't know. I haven't decided.
[03:56] KAZUYA
    I'm going to hang out with Jun and Michitaka.
[04:00] KYO
    You haven't changed since we were kids.
[04:04] KAZUYA
    That park...
[04:06] KAZUYA
    No, never mind. It's all in the past.
[04:11] KYO
    That day...
[04:18] KYO
    It started snowing that day...
[04:21] KYO
    But I never felt cold when I was
    with you guys and your parents.
[04:33] KAZUYA
    Let's go to that park over the break!
[04:36] KAZUYA
    You, me, Jun, and Michitaka.
[04:45] JUN
    They really are hopeless.
    It's obvious they care about each other.
[04:50] JUN
    When we were kids, we spent
    all our time together.
[04:52] JUN
    Just being with each other was fun for us.
[04:55] JUN
    Man, why can't they just get along?
[05:20] JUN
    This is absolutely not the time for that!
[05:23] JUN
    It's July, so we've got less than a month
[05:25] JUN
    until the supported space is updated!
[05:27] KAZUYA
    I know.
[05:29] JUN
    Who drew that Scribble?
[05:30] KAZUYA
    I know, but I'm out of leads.
[05:34] KAZUYA
    We already talked to all
    the older Staircaser candidates.
[05:38] MICHITAKA
    We'll have to start looking
    into other upperclassmen, too.
[05:42] JUN
    There's way too many of them!
[05:49] KAZUYA
    H-Hello.
[05:58] JUN
    Kazuya, did you do something to him?
[06:00] KAZUYA
    No! All we did was have
    a perfectly normal conversation
[06:03] KAZUYA
    during the incident with
    Haijima-senpai's exhibit.
[06:05] MICHITAKA
    Come to think of it, isn't Yura's
    family prominent in the art world?
[06:09] MICHITAKA
    He might have some intel pointing
     to whoever drew that Scribble
[06:15] MICHITAKA
    that we could never get.
[06:20] KAZUYA
    Yura!
[06:22] KAZUYA
    Do you have a minute?
[06:23] TAKUMI
    No.
[06:24] KAZUYA
    Wait, wait!
[06:25] TAKUMI
    What do you want?
[06:27] KAZUYA
    Does your family have any
    rare material on Perception Art?
[06:32] KAZUYA
    If you do, could I take a look at it?
[06:35] TAKUMI
    Why?
[06:36] KAZUYA
    Um...
[06:38] TAKUMI
    You're looking for that Scribbler?
[06:40] KAZUYA
    Actually, yeah.
[06:41] KAZUYA
    Wait, how do you know about that?!
[06:45] TAKUMI
    So you don't think Iori-san did it.
[06:48] KAZUYA
    You know about that, too?
[06:50] KAZUYA
    Yeah, we don't think it's him anymore.
[06:53] KAZUYA
    I actually think the culprit might
    have been influenced by my parents' work.
[06:59] KAZUYA
    That's our only clue right now,
[07:02] KAZUYA
    so I want to look into my parents'
    acquaintances that I didn't know.

[07:30] TAKUMI
    Why do you want to find the person

[07:34] KAZUYA
    Skipping the specifics, I just
    really want to know the truth.
[07:40] TAKUMI
    The truth, huh?
[07:42] TAKUMI
    Digging that up may lead to misery.
[07:47] JUN
    I'm so tired! I'm going to fall asleep!
[07:50] MICHITAKA
    You were already asleep.
[07:52] KAZUYA
    That's enough for today.
[07:54] JUN
    I'm sleepy and hungry at the same time!
[07:56] JUN
    Wanna stop by somewhere?
[07:58] KAZUYA
    Want to come with, Yura?
[08:00] KAZUYA
    You know, you and Yura-senpai are
    both Yuras... It's confusing!
[08:05] TAKUMI
    I'm not coming.
[08:06] KAZUYA
    Yeah, I figured.
[08:08] TAKUMI
    Also...
[08:10] TAKUMI
    You can call me Takumi.
[08:13] KAZUYA
    Sure!
[08:19] DAIKI
    Oh?
[08:20] DAIKI
    Takumi!
[08:23] TAKUMI
    Oh, it's just you.
[08:25] DAIKI
    You don't have to be so cold.
[08:27] TAKUMI
    Just so you know...
[08:30] TAKUMI
    I've decided to help Yamanashi and his
    friends find the mysterious Scribbler.
[08:35] DAIKI
    What?
[08:36] DAIKI
    Y-You have?
[08:38] DAIKI
    Okay, great. Sounds like you're
    making the most of your teenage years!
[08:42] DAIKI
    I'm glad to hear it!
[08:45] DAIKI
    So, how's it going?
[08:47] TAKUMI
    Right now, they're looking
    into Yamanashi's parents.
[08:50] DAIKI
    His parents?
[08:52] TAKUMI
    What?
[08:53] DAIKI
    Nothing. Have they made any progress?
[08:56] TAKUMI
    Not really. They're just getting started.
[08:59] DAIKI
    I see. W-Well, they're not likely
    to find anything right away.
[09:03] DAIKI
    Anyway, be careful on your way home.
[09:06] TAKUMI
    Don't treat me like a child.
[09:09] DAIKI
    Bye-bye.
[09:14] TAKUMI
    Right now, they're looking
    into Yamanashi's parents.
[09:19] DAIKI
    Crap.
[09:29] KAZUYA
    You want us to stop looking for the culprit?
[09:31] DAIKI
    I'm really sorry!
[09:34] DAIKI
    Apparently the supported space
    is being updated ahead of schedule.
[09:37] KAZUYA
    What? Then we have to find
    the culprit before then.
[09:40] DAIKI
    Actually, there's really no time for that!
[09:43] DAIKI
    So this'll be the end of the investigation!
[09:46] KAZUYA
    But I—
[09:48] DAIKI
    Sorry for taking up your time.
[09:49] DAIKI
    I really appreciate your help. Thanks!
[09:52] DAIKI
    See you later!
[09:57] JUN
    Seriously?
[09:58] JUN
    He called it off after you agreed to help,
     and we're just getting somewhere?
[10:01] JUN
    Are you listening, Michitaka?
[10:03] MICHITAKA
    That may have been bad for him.
[10:04] BOTH
    What?

[10:07] MICHITAKA
    Yura-senpai is the culprit.
[10:10] MICHITAKA
    That's one possibility.
[10:12] KAZUYA
    B-But Yura-san was first one
    to start looking for the culprit.
[10:17] MICHITAKA
    Unlike before, he might now be trying
    to put a hasty end to the investigation
[10:21] MICHITAKA
    because us interacting
    with Takumi is bad news.
[10:26] KAZUYA
    So Yura-senpai might be the culprit...
[10:29] JUN
    What should we do?
    Stop investigating or keep going?
[10:32] KAZUYA
    I'm not stopping.
[10:34] KAZUYA
    I want to know why I saw my parents' wolf,
    which only I know about, in that Scribble.
[10:42] MICHITAKA
    What'll we do about Takumi?
[10:43] KAZUYA
    We can't hide it from him.
[10:46] MICHITAKA
    Agreed.
[10:46] JUN
    Agreed.
[10:51] TAKUMI
    Did you draw that Scribble?
[10:54] ALL
    That's awfully direct!
[10:55] TAKUMI
    Well?
[10:57] DAIKI
    Wait, what? What is this?
[10:58] KAZUYA
    Hold on, Takumi.
[11:00] KAZUYA
    To tell you the truth,
[11:01] KAZUYA
    since you called off
    the investigation so suddenly,
[11:05] KAZUYA
    we thought you might be the culprit.
[11:09] DAIKI
    What?!
[11:10] MICHITAKA
    You're not?
[11:11] JUN
    Go on! Express your remorse
    and confess to the crime!
[11:14] DAIKI
    You've got it all wrong!
[11:16] DAIKI
    I even told you why! The update's
    happening ahead of schedule!
[11:20] DAIKI
    So that's enough of this, okay? Please.
[11:23] DAIKI
    Later! Bye-bye!
[11:27] KAZUYA
    Figures.
[11:29] JUN
    It was a pretty interesting
    theory, but too bad.
[11:33] TAKUMI
    I don't know about that.
[11:34] ALL
    Huh?
[11:35] TAKUMI
    He's always hiding something
    when he acts so dismissive.
[11:42] KAZUYA
    Takumi?
[11:43] TAKUMI
    Do you really want to dig up the truth?
[11:49] KAZUYA
    We came because we were invited, but...
[11:52] JUN
    I'm pretty well-off, but even
     I'm intimidated by this gate.
[11:55] MICHITAKA
    The intercom is normal.
[11:57] JUN
    Then you push the button!
[11:59] KYO
    What are you guys doing?
[12:02] KAZUYA
    Kyo! What are you doing here?
[12:05] KYO
    I was at a nearby bookstore—
[12:08] TAKUMI
    Hey, get in here before
    my brother comes home.
[12:11] TAKUMI
    You're here too, Takise-senpai?
[12:14] KYO
    Are you up to something again?
[12:16] KAZUYA
    It's not like that! I just—
[12:19] KYO
    You just what?
[12:23] DAIKI
    Whoa!
[12:23] KAZUYA
    Huh?
[12:34] DAIKI
    This way, Kyo-kun!
[12:35] KYO
    Er, okay.
[12:46] TAKUMI
    It'll be a hassle if my brother catches on.
[12:48] TAKUMI
    Let's be quick.
[12:51] KAZUYA
    Yura-senpai's secret is in here?
[12:53] TAKUMI
    Yeah.
[12:54] TAKUMI
    He's hiding something.
[12:59] TAKUMI
    It should be around here.
[13:15] DAIKI
    Sorry. I'm washing your shirt right now...
[13:19] KYO
    It's all right. I'm sorry, I think.
[13:23] KAZUYA
    It's missing?
[13:25] TAKUMI
    He must've hidden it because
    he knows we're looking for it.
[13:29] KAZUYA
    Come on. Would he really bother doing that?
[13:31] MICHITAKA
    What was here before?
[13:33] TAKUMI
    Old magazine issues and
    something like a scrapbook.
[13:38] JUN
    Aw, man.
[13:39] JUN
    I can't believe we made it this far
    just for a letdown like this.
[13:43] KAZUYA
    You're right. This is definitely a letdown.
[13:47] KAZUYA
    Wait, huh?
[13:49] MICHITAKA
    Jun?
[13:51] TAKUMI
    What is it?
[13:53] KAZUYA
    Jun disappeared.
[13:55] MICHITAKA
    Did he go to the bathroom?
[13:57] KAZUYA
    He was just saying what a letdown this was...
[14:00] TAKUMI
    Maybe he's on the other side of this wall.
[14:02] MICHITAKA
    What do you mean?
[14:03] KAZUYA
    Huh?
[14:04] TAKUMI
    This house was originally built
    by former nobles for their amusement.
[14:08] TAKUMI
    I've heard not even our family,
    the current owners, know all its tricks.
[14:12] MICHITAKA
    So there might be one in this room?
[14:14] JUN
    Kazuya! Michitaka!
[14:17] TAKUMI
    Sounds like there is.
[14:18] KAZUYA
    He's in there? Seriously?
[14:20] TAKUMI
    I doubt it's a complicated contraption.
[14:22] KAZUYA
    Jun, tell us how you got in there!
[14:25] MICHITAKA
    Move.
[14:28] MICHITAKA
    Sorry, Takumi. The Tsuzuki family
    will pay for the repairs.
[14:32] JUN
    It opened!
[14:34] KAZUYA
    Jun!
[14:35] JUN
    You scared me, Michitaka.
[14:37] JUN
    Your taekwondo is even more
    destructive than my karate!
[14:41] MICHITAKA
    Sorry.
[14:42] TAKUMI
    Look.
[14:50] DAIKI
    Uh... Maybe I'll go take some tea
     to the others, too.
[14:54] DAIKI
    Make yourself at home.
[14:57] KYO
    Sure...
[15:01] KAZUYA
    Wow, it's like a secret room.
[15:04] JUN
    It is a secret room.
[15:08] JUN
    The dust...
[15:09] MICHITAKA
    Are you okay?
[15:14] KAZUYA
    Takumi?
[15:28] JUN
    This is what Yura-senpai was hiding?
[15:31] MICHITAKA
    They seem to be old
    magazine article clippings.
[15:34] JUN
    Michitaka?

    You're going to keep running?

    Cut it out.

    It's irritating watching you try to brush
    everything off with superficial smiles.
[17:20] DAIKI
    N-Now, now, Takumi—
[17:24] TAKUMI
    You reacted strangely when I told you
     I was working with Yamanashi.
[17:28] TAKUMI
    Was there a reason?
[17:30] KAZUYA
    Takumi.
[17:31] TAKUMI
    You always do this!
[17:34] TAKUMI
    Ever since I started Perception Art,
[17:36] TAKUMI
    you're always brushing me off or butting
    in, keeping me away from Perception Art.
[17:43] TAKUMI
    You don't want me around him
    because he's the Yamanashis' kid, right?
[17:47] DAIKI
    No—
[17:49] TAKUMI
    No? Spit it out.
[17:55] TAKUMI
    When you act like this,
    I feel like I made a mistake.
[18:00] TAKUMI
    My dream... The path I've chosen...
[18:04] TAKUMI
    Does me making Perception Art
    really make you that uneasy?
[18:07] DAIKI
    That's not it! You're talented!
    This wasn't a mistake!
[18:12] DAIKI
    You're desperately trying
    to catch up to Iori-kun, right?
[18:14] DAIKI
    I wish you wouldn't deny that.
[18:16] DAIKI
    If that's what you want, I'd...
[18:18] TAKUMI
    It's not just Iori-san...
[18:23] TAKUMI
    that I'm looking at.
[18:29] TAKUMI
    You normally lost interest quickly,
[18:31] TAKUMI
    but you'd have so much fun that
    you wouldn't notice me talking to you.
[18:38] TAKUMI

[18:56] JUN
    You're saying your parents were involved
    in the accident that killed Kazuya's?
[19:05] DAIKI
    You knew about that?
[19:11] DAIKI
    Kazuya-kun...
[19:13] KAZUYA
    Why, Senpai...?
[19:17] DAIKI
    It was never officially reported,
    and important people worried about my parents
[19:22] DAIKI
    worked to put out the fires started
    by third-rate tabloids like this one.
[19:27] DAIKI
    But I couldn't forget.
[19:31] DAIKI
    It's ironic, isn't it?
[19:32] DAIKI
    Because of the accident, I started looking
    into your parents and Perception Art,
[19:38] DAIKI
    and I fell in love with it.
[19:40] DAIKI
    I wanted Takumi to keep loving it.
[19:44] DAIKI
    I didn't want him to go through
    the pain I felt.
[19:49] DAIKI
    You're right, Takumi. I've been lying
    and running away like a lame brother.
[19:55] DAIKI
    I'm sorry.
[19:57] TAKUMI
    Don't underestimate me.
[19:58] DAIKI
    What?
[19:59] TAKUMI
    I'm not a little kid anymore.
[20:01] TAKUMI
    I'm not the kid who used
    to just follow you around.
[20:04] TAKUMI
    Sorry, Yamanashi,
[20:06] TAKUMI
    but I'll keep loving Perception Art
    no matter what happened in the past,
[20:10] TAKUMI
    and I like the person I am now,
    who chose to become a Grader.
[20:13] TAKUMI
    We're the same.
[20:19] DAIKI
    We really are brothers, huh?
[20:23] TAKUMI
    Yamanashi.
[20:24] DAIKI
    Kazuya-kun, I'm sorry.
[20:27] KAZUYA
    Don't apologize.
[20:28] KAZUYA
    All this means is that
    an organization the Yuras
[20:31] KAZUYA
    sponsored turned out to be
    an extremist group, right?
[20:34] KAZUYA
    Besides, it was an accident.
[20:37] KAZUYA
    I'm not looking for a fight.
[20:39] KAZUYA
    My parents would be sad
    to see anyone lose
[20:43] KAZUYA
    or give up something
    because of Perception Art.
[20:47] KAZUYA
    After all, Perception Art is a seed
    they sowed with Kyo's parents.
[20:55] KAZUYA
    I know they wanted to see what
    colors would bloom from it.
[20:59] KAZUYA
    So we can't stop.
    We have to keep moving forward.
[21:05] KAZUYA
    I think that's how I can carry on
    the spirit of my parents.
[22:56] JUN
    Kyo!
[22:58] JUN
    How long are you going
    to keep wandering around?
[23:02] JUN
    Didn't you say Kazuya's like
    a younger brother to you?
[23:05] JUN
    Don't make him cry.
[23:08] JUN
    Don't hurt him anymore.
[23:12] JUN
    Don't you actually want to be with him, too?
[23:18] KYO
    I don't have the right.
[23:22] KYO
    Because the one who killed his parents...
[23:25] KYO
    is me.
[23:32] JUN
    What?
