    The following program is intended
    for Mature Audiences only.
[00:00] Misurin
    Mr. Poliman told me if
    anyone with Wings shows up,
[00:04] Misurin
    I have to stay with them,
     so I don't have a choice.
[00:09] Mukaido
    This isn't good.
[00:16] Mirai
    Mr. Mukaido!
[00:23] Man 1
    Is this for real?
[00:24] Man 2
    A terrorist attack?
[00:27] Mirai
    What... just happened?
[00:30] Mirai
    I thought Metropoliman
    was supposed to show up.
[00:33] Mirai
    Huh?
[00:35] Mirai
    Mr. Mukaido!
[00:44] Mirai
    Mr. Mukaido...
[00:45] Mirai
    Mr. Mukaido!
[00:49] Mirai
    No... Don't die...
[00:52] Mirai
    Please don't die!
[00:54] Mirai
    I don't want anyone else to die!
[01:04] Mirai
    He's alive...
[01:07] Nasse
    Mr. Mukaido survived.
[01:08] Nasse
    Isn't that great, Baret?
[01:10] Baret
    Yes, it is. Though we knew that right away.
[01:14] Mukaido
    K-Kakehashi, is that you?
[01:17] Mirai
    Yes.
[01:18] Mukaido
    I'm glad I wore this blast suit, just in case.
[01:22] Mukaido
    I knew there was a remote possibility he'd
    do that, but I never imagined he'd go this far.
[01:26] Mukaido
    He's willing to use more than just
     his White Arrows to kill people.
[01:32] Mukaido
    You must be happy.
[01:34] Mukaido
    Didn't you say you didn't
    want to see anyone else die?
[01:40] Mirai
    Yes.
[01:44] Mukaido
    Girl A must've died in the blast.
[01:47] Mukaido
    I agree with you. I don't want
    to see anyone die, either.
[01:53] Mukaido
    But we can't afford to be so sentimental.
[01:57] Mukaido
    The real fight begins now.
[01:59] Mirai
    Huh?
[02:00] Mukaido
    He's here.
[02:01] Metropoliman
    What's with the costume?
[02:03] Metropoliman
    It's actually pretty cool.
[02:06] Metropoliman
    I'll be taking that.
[03:40] Mirai
    How...
[03:42] Mirai
    How can you kill people so easily?
[03:45] Metropoliman
    It's probably because of these
    Wings and Arrows I was given.
[03:49] Mirai
    That's not what I'm asking.
[03:53] Mirai
    I'm asking you if you think
    it's okay to kill people.
[03:57] Mukaido
    Kakehashi...
[03:58] Metropoliman
    What are you, a child?
[04:05] Metropoliman
    It's wrong to kill people.
[04:08] Metropoliman
    There's nothing more precious than life.
     Is that what you want to hear?
[04:12] Mirai
    You know it's wrong to kill
    people, so why do you do it?
[04:16] Metropoliman
    So I can become God, I guess?
[04:18] Metropoliman
    Sacrifices must be made, though
     I'm trying to keep it to a minimum.
[04:24] Mukaido
    To a minimum, huh?
[04:27] Mirai
    Nobody ever said that the last
     God candidate left standing
[04:30] Mirai
    once we're done killing each other
    would automatically become God.
[04:34] Metropoliman
    You're right. This is just the
    decision-making process I chose.
[04:38] Mirai
    You killed Girl A.
[04:40] Mirai
    You used her to kill middle school girls
     who had nothing to do with this.
[04:44] Mirai
    Do you even understand what it
    feels like to lose a family member?!
[04:48] Mirai
    Do you know how it feels to lose
     someone important to you?!
[04:54] Metropoliman
    I do.
[04:57] Metropoliman
    I lost the family member I loved the most.
[05:02] Metropoliman
    So I understand what it
    feels like. Painfully so.
[05:06] Metropoliman
    I know exactly how it feels. But so what?
[05:11] Kanade
    So...
[05:14] Mukaido
    We're not going to be able to persuade him.
[05:16] Mirai
    I know, but I can't accept this.
[05:19] Metropoliman
    Then, I'll make today the last day
    anyone dies unnecessarily because of me.
[05:23] Metropoliman
    I won't kill anyone other
    than God candidates.
[05:28] Metropoliman
    Isn't that what you want?
[05:30] Woman Reporter
    We're here in front of the Grand Tower.
[05:31] Woman Rerpoter
    We've been told that Girl A was up
    there when the explosion occurred.
[05:34] Woman Reporter
    Investigators say it's possible this was
    a suicide bombing carried out by Girl A.
[05:35] Revel
    It'll be fine.
[05:36] Saki
    But they went to the tower...

[05:41] Male Announcer
    The explosion that

[05:41] Saki
    Nasse?
[05:42] Male Announcer
    Oh! It's Metropoliman!
[05:44] Male Announcer
    Look at that! It's Metropoliman,
    who was last seen at Jinbo Stadium...
[05:48] Mirai
    Can you fly?
[05:49] Mukaido
    Yeah. Thanks to that, my mind is clear.
[05:52] Mirai
    Good.
[05:53] Mukaido
    But I have no intention of
    ending this by just flying away.
[05:57] Mirai
    I know.
[05:59] Mukaido
    I'd like to avoid letting him escape.
[06:01] Mukaido
    But even more importantly,
[06:03] Mukaido
    I'd like to avoid getting killed and having
     him take our Wings and Arrows from us.
[06:08] Mukaido
    If he did that, he really would
    brute force his way to becoming God.
[06:12] Mukaido
    We have to do whatever it takes
    to shoot him with a Red Arrow.
[06:15] Mirai
    Right.
[06:17] Mukaido
    But...
[06:19] Mukaido
    Why isn't he leaving?
[06:22] Mukaido
    I'm sure he'd love nothing more than to kill
    more God candidates, but it's two on one.
[06:27] Mukaido
    He's not the type to pick fights
     where he's at a disadvantage.
[06:30] Mukaido
    Does he have a plan?
    Is he hatching one right now?
[06:34] Metropoliman
    I don't know what you two
    are whispering about,
[06:37] Metropoliman
    but you're both going to die here.
[06:40] Metropoliman
    Meyza!
[06:43] Metropoliman
    Watch my back.
[06:46] Meyza
    Understood.
[06:48] Mukaido
    If he fires his White Arrow,
    we'll just fly away.
[06:51] Mukaido
    I'll see if I can trick him.
[06:53] Mukaido
    Nasse!
[06:54] Nasse
    Yes?
[06:55] Mukaido
    You're sure that angel is Meyza,
    a special-rank angel like you?
[06:59] Nasse
    Yup, that's right.
[07:01] Mukaido
    Nasse. Baret. You two watch our backs.
[07:04] Baret
    Understood.
[07:05] Mukaido
    Hurry up and fire your Red Arrow.
[07:07] Mirai
    Got it.
[07:10] Mukaido
    Now he'll assume I'm the
     one with the White Arrow.
[07:14] Mirai
    What?
[07:15] Mukaido
    Nasse, a special-rank angel,
    is floating behind me,
[07:18] Mukaido
    and I instructed you to
    ready your Red Arrow.
[07:21] Mukaido
    It's now clear who he needs to be wary of.
[07:24] Mukaido
    You'll take advantage of that and
     hit him with your Red Arrow.
[07:27] Mirai
    Got it.
[07:28] Metropoliman
    You two sure are whispering a lot.
[07:32] Metropoliman
    So first, I'm going to kill...
[07:39] Metropoliman
    You.
[07:41] Mukaido
    Told you.
[07:43] Mukaido
    Kill me? How exactly?
[07:46] Mukaido
    Shall we fight one on one?
[07:47] Metropoliman
    What? I'd never do anything so risky.
[07:50] Metropoliman
    This is all I need.
[07:52] Metropoliman
    Priming code: ENJER.
[07:58] Metropoliman
    I planted a bomb in another location.
[08:02] Metropoliman
    Even if I left Girl A on top of the tower,
[08:04] Metropoliman
    there would've been no point if no
     God candidates flew over to her.
[08:08] Metropoliman
    I planted the bomb so Girl A could threaten
     to blow up a building if no one showed.
[08:14] Metropoliman
    Pretty effective against softies who feel
    the need to save strangers, don't you think?
[08:19] Metropoliman
    It's one of the buildings
    you can see from here.
[08:23] Metropoliman
    And if it explodes... Well, at the very least,
[08:26] Metropoliman
    the "precious" lives of the people
    inside that building will be lost.
[08:30] Metropoliman
    Either you'll die, or countless people who
    have nothing to do with our conflict will.
[08:35] Metropoliman
    It's one or the other.
[08:38] Mukaido
    You're lying.
[08:39] Mukaido
    That has to be a bluff you just came up with!
[08:42] Nasse
    Yeah, he's lying.
[08:43] Mirai
    If Nasse says it's a lie,
    does that mean it is?
[08:46] Meyza
    That angel is skilled
    at seeing through lies,
[08:50] Meyza
    but the technique requires
    looking at a person's face.
[08:54] Meyza
    It is that angel who is bluffing.
[08:58] Metropoliman
    Oh, yeah?
[08:59] Metropoliman
    I guess that means you don't care who dies.
[09:02] Metropoliman
    You know something?
[09:04] Metropoliman
    I wouldn't have had to press this activation
     key if you'd died in the explosion.
[09:07] Metropoliman
    Either way, people will die because of you.
[09:10] Metropoliman
    Remember that.
[09:12] Metropoliman
    All right, I'm pressing it.
[09:16] Mukaido
    Wait!
[09:18] Mukaido
    Fine. Don't do it.
[09:21] Mirai
    Mr. Mukaido.
[09:22] Mukaido
    But only one of us will die.
[09:27] Mukaido
    You intended to kill one God
    candidate in that explosion earlier.
[09:32] Mukaido
    So, having one less God candidate around
     should be good enough for you, shouldn't it?
[09:37] Metropoliman
    Huh.
[09:39] Metropoliman
    Okay.
[09:41] Metropoliman
    But I get to choose who dies.
[09:45] Metropoliman
    And I'm taking the Wings and
     Arrows they leave behind.
[09:49] Metropoliman
    Those are my conditions.
[09:54] Demakawa
    Demakawa here.
[09:56] Demakawa
    This is Metropoliman's first appearance
    since the Jinbo Stadium incident. Is he
[09:59] Demakawa
    connected to the
    Grand Tower explosion?
[10:01] Mirai
    Kakehashi... Mr. Mukaido...
[10:09] Metropoliman
    Awesome. A public
    execution suits me just fine.
[10:13] Metropoliman
    I think I'll kill you after all.
[10:17] Mukaido
    Figures. Of course you'd
     kill the special-rank first.
[10:21] Metropoliman
    No, that's irrelevant. It's because you'd be
     the more difficult survivor to deal with.
[10:26] Mukaido
    There you go again. You know
    you want another White Arrow.
[10:30] Mukaido
    Either way, I appreciate you
    overestimating my abilities.
[10:33] Mirai
    No!
[10:34] Mirai
    You can't die!
[10:36] Mukaido
    I know.
[10:37] Mirai
    Nasse might be right. Maybe he is lying.
[10:40] Mukaido
    And what if he isn't?
[10:42] Mukaido
    I'm not just going to let him kill me.
[10:44] Mukaido
    When he fires his White Arrow,
[10:47] Mukaido
    you'll shoot your Red Arrow.
[10:50] Mirai
    But...
[10:52] Mukaido
    My life is...
[11:05] Mirai
    At this rate, Mr. Mukaido will die.
[11:08] Mirai
    Someone's going to die.
[11:16] Metropoliman
    The second you fly away, I'm pressing the key.
[11:20] Mukaido
    So if there's no explosion,
    it'll mean you were bluffing.
[11:24] Metropoliman
    You're right!

[11:50] Mukaido
    Kakehashi!
[11:51] Baret
    Interesting.
[11:53] Baret
    Wings and Arrows are not affected
    by objects from the human world,
[11:56] Baret
    but a tool from another angel...
[11:59] Baret
    Even I did not know they
    could be used in this way.
[12:02] Nasse
    What? Not even you?
[12:04] Metropoliman
    Why are you interfering?
[12:08] Metropoliman
    Don't you care if people die?
[12:12] Mirai
    I...
[12:13] Mirai
    I'm going to...
[12:16] Mirai
    shoot you with a Red Arrow!
[12:34] Metropoliman
    You're charging at me instead
    of firing it? Are you dense?
[12:40] Metropoliman
    You're annoying me. I'll kill you first!
[12:44] Mukaido
    Run!
[12:59] Metropoliman
    That was impressive.
[13:04] Metropoliman
    Why don't you fly away?
[13:09] Metropoliman
    Godly moves for someone
    who will never be God.
[13:12] Metropoliman
    How long do you think...
[13:15] Metropoliman
    you can keep dodging like that?
[13:26] Mirai
    I...
[13:29] Mirai
    I will...
[13:32] Mirai
    shoot you...
[13:36] Mirai
    with a Red...
[13:41] Metropoliman
    Made you look!
[13:50] Mukaido
    Kakehashi!
[13:52] Mukaido
    What happened to him? It's hard to believe
    we'll make it out of here in one piece!
[13:58] Metropoliman
    How long do you intend to keep this up?
[14:01] Metropoliman
    It's so lame.
[14:05] Meyza
    You're right. It's unsightly.
[14:07] Nasse
    You're wrong.
[14:10] Nasse
    It's hella cool.
[14:14] Demakawa
    For some time now, we've watched
    Metropoliman float around in the sky
[14:15] Saki
    Why doesn't he dodge his attacks by flying
    away from them? Why won't he shoot him?
[14:17] Demakawa
    near two other... um, humans, I'm guessing,
    wearing some type of armor or power suits.
[14:19] Saki
    At this rate, Kakehashi
[14:22] Saki
    will be killed!
[14:41] Mukaido
    What should I do?
[14:44] Mukaido
    He can't turn his back on me,
[14:46] Mukaido
    but he also can't take
    his eyes off Kakehashi.
[14:50] Mukaido
    Kakehashi's desperation has presented
    us with a golden opportunity.
[14:55] Mukaido
    In that case...
[14:57] Mukaido
    I'll also have to...
[15:00] Mukaido
    do what I can!
[15:07] Meyza
    Behind you!
[15:13] Mukaido
    Your Arrow!
[15:37] Mukaido
    He... ran?
[15:42] Mukaido
    Should I have aimed for his heart?
[15:44] Mukaido
    No, his suit was bulletproof, so
     it would've made no difference.
[15:50] Mukaido
    Kakehashi!
[15:57] Mirai
    I saw him...
[16:00] Mirai
    I saw his face.
[16:12] Mukaido
    Let's go.

    Metropoliman has vanished
    up into the sky and—
[16:20] Demakawa
    The two other mysterious
    figures just vanished as well!
[16:24] Demakawa
    Just like at Jinbo Stadium,
    Metropoliman and the others
[16:26] Saki
    Mr. Mukaido! Kakehashi!
[16:27] Demakawa
    repeatedly appear
    and disappear in a flash.
[16:29] Demkawa
    Not only that, but the armored
    figure above Metropoliman
[16:31] Mukaido
    Are you all right?
[16:31] Demkawa
    fired several shots at him from
    something that looked like a gun.
[16:32] Mirai
    Y-Yeah...
[16:34] Saki
    Kakehashi... I'm so relieved.
[16:34] Demakawa
    His mask broke, but unfortunately,
    our cameras failed to capture his face.
[16:43] Mirai
    I couldn't shoot him.
[16:43] Demakawa
    It seems as though they'd
    engaged Metropoliman in combat.
[16:46] Mirai
    He flinched for a moment
    when you opened fire on him.
[16:52] Mirai
    But I couldn't... shoot him.
[17:00] Mukaido
    I can't praise you for the way
    you fought him, though.
[17:05] Mukaido
    It's a miracle you're even still alive.
[17:08] Mukaido
    Or were you intentionally being reckless
    so that I'd get an opportunity to shoot him?
[17:15] Mirai
    As if.
[17:17] Mirai
    I just didn't want to die. I wanted
    to shoot him with a Red Arrow.
[17:23] Mirai
    No, that's not right.
[17:26] Mirai
    I wasn't thinking anything.
[17:30] Mirai
    I couldn't think anymore.
[17:34] Mirai
    I'm not cut out for this.
[17:38] Mirai
    I'm not cut out for battle.
[17:42] Mukaido
    It's a bit late for that.
[17:44] Mirai
    I've never even been in a fistfight.
[17:47] Mirai
    Even when my relatives abused me after
    taking me in, I just took the beatings.
[17:54] Mirai
    No matter what people said to me at
    school or how much they mocked me,
[18:00] Mirai
    I pretended I couldn't hear,
    and I never spoke back to them.
[18:04] Mirai
    I never retaliated.
[18:05] Mukaido
    If you think that's strength, you're wrong.
[18:09] Mirai
    I know.
[18:12] Mirai
    It's not strength. It's weakness.
[18:17] Mirai
    I'm afraid to attack someone.
[18:20] Mirai
    I'm a coward.
[18:22] Mukaido
    Well, I wouldn't go that far.
[18:25] Nasse
    Yeah. It's just because you're kind.
[18:29] Mirai
    People compete with one another
    and work hard to reach their ideal.
[18:34] Mirai
    That leads to happiness. I know that.
[18:40] Mirai
    But what I'm doing now is different.
[18:46] Mirai
    I don't derive any joy from gaining
    something by hurting or killing people.
[18:51] Mirai
    I can't understand how you
    can be happy doing that!
[18:54] Mukaido
    It's Metropoliman who's killing people
    and trying to brute force this.
[18:59] Mukaido
    We're the ones trying to stop him.
[19:01] Mukaido
    And even if we end up killing him,
    he wouldn't exactly be a victim.
[19:05] Mirai
    Maybe you're right...
[19:08] Mirai
    But I don't know what I'm doing anymore...
[19:14] Mirai
    Why... are we doing this?
[19:18] Nasse
    To be happy.
[19:24] Nasse
    Right? It's so everyone can be happy.
[19:38] Mirai
    I received Wings and Arrows from Nasse,
[19:41] Mirai
    escaped from hell, and now, I'm with Saki.
[19:44] Mirai
    I felt like I'd ascended to heaven.
[19:47] Mirai
    I thought I might actually find happiness.
[19:50] Mirai
    But in reality...
[19:53] Mirai
    what we're doing now...
[19:56] Mirai
    is killing each other.
[19:59] Mirai
    Why won't they let me live a normal life?
[20:03] Mirai
    Seriously, I'm sick of all this.
[20:07] Mukaido
    I understand how you feel, but there's
     something we have to do right now.
[20:14] Mukaido
    Tell me what you saw.
    Tell me about Metropoliman.
[20:17] Saki
    Mr. Mukaido.
[20:20] Saki
    Kakehashi doesn't seem
    to have calmed down yet.
[20:23] Saki
    And I've had enough for one day, too.
[20:26] Revel
    You were really worried about Mirai, huh?
[20:29] Revel
    All the hearts in the world
    wouldn't have helped you survive
[20:32] Revel
    the heart attacks that life-and-death
     tussle nearly gave you.
[20:35] Mukaido
    I see. You're right.
[20:38] Mukaido
    We can pick this up again tomorrow.
[20:41] Mukaido
    Just getting to see his face this
    time was good enough for me.
[20:48] Saki
    Is Kakehashi really... happy being with me?
[20:54] Sign
    Sugisaka Surgery
[20:54] Sign
    Sugisaka Surgery
[20:55] Doctor
    Yes, that should do it.
[20:58] Doctor
    Anyway, you're the first patient I've had
     who's had his head grazed by a bullet.
[21:05] Kanade
    I was shot at close range.
[21:07] Kanade
    I even made it bulletproof.
[21:09] Doctor
    That must've been difficult.
[21:12] Kanade
    Thanks for seeing me outside
    your consultation hours, doctor.
[21:15] Doctor
    No problem at all.
[21:18] Kanade
    The threat of another bomb...
[21:21] Kanade
    My promise not to kill anyone
    other than God candidates...
[21:24] Kanade
    I lied about all of it.
[21:26] Kanade
    Damn it. Who are those guys?
[21:30] Student
    Hey, good morning.
[21:31] Maiko
    Did you see the Grand Tower
    explosion yesterday?
[21:34] Maiko
    Crazy, huh? So scary.
[21:40] Maiko
    Hey, he's back.
[21:44] Maiko
    You know, your stalker.
[21:50] Maiko
    I'm gonna go talk to him.
[21:52] Saki
    It's fine.
[21:53] Maiko
    Fine? Why?
[21:57] Maiko
    I seriously doubt you would,
    but are you dating Kakehashi?
[22:01] Saki
    What?
[22:02] Maiko
    There's a rumor going around.
    Someone said they saw you two together.
[22:08] Saki
    We're not dating.
[22:10] Maiko
    Well, of course not. Who'd date
     Mirai Kakehashi, of all people?
[22:17] Saki
    Besides, me... and Kakehashi...
[22:22] Saki
    I can't fall for him.
