[00:02] Hajime
This th-thing here...
[00:04] Hajime
...is one of Nagamitsu's legendary swords.
[00:06] Hajime
I've e-even acquired a Masamune sword.
[00:07] Detective
Wh-Why?
[00:09] Detective
What do you want?
[00:10] Hajime
A-Anyway, I can't h-hide how surprised I am.
[00:16] Hajime
I was going to shoot you with a Red Arrow
and get you to do something for me...
[00:20] Hajime
But it looks like somebody beat me to it.
[00:24] Detective
An Arrow?
[00:26] Hajime
It's funny, isn't it?
[00:34] Hajime
So y-yeah, anyway, I'd like
you to t-tell me who shot you.
[00:39] Detective
I-I don't know what you're talking about!
[00:43] Detective
And besides, I'm bound
by client confidentiality!
[00:52] Detective
O-Okay. I'll tell you
anything you want to know.
[02:34] Mukaido
This place is huge.
[02:36] Mukaido
It's great.
[02:37] Saki
It apparently became quite popular as the
"Chapel Among the Gods" several years back.
[02:42] Saki
The owner sold it due to
personal circumstances.
[02:44] Nasse
I can fly wherever I want!
[02:46] Mukaido
Oh, right. Hanakago, try this on.
[02:51] Saki
You finished it! Thank you.
[03:00] Nasse
What are you spacing out for?
[03:02] Mirai
Oh, it just looks kind of similar to the
park I used to go to with my family.
[03:07] Nasse
Huh.
[03:13] Saki
What are these?
[03:15] Revel
Ah, Saki.
[03:16] Revel
These are the Celestial Tomes.
[03:19] Revel
They're the memories of every God and angel
from Heaven's inception to the present day.
[03:24] Revel
One single drop contains more information
than you'd find in a thousand of your books.
[03:29] Saki
You're going to read all these?
[03:31] Saki
Don't push yourself too hard.
[03:33] Revel
I kind of have to, so you can get
your own Wings as soon as possible.
[03:41] Saki
Thank you.
[03:42] Revel
You can thank me once you have your Wings.
[03:46] Saki
Sorry for bothering you.
[03:48] Saki
Mr. Mukaido finished up my suit,
so I was looking for a room to change in.
[03:52] Revel
Your suit?
[03:55] Mukaido
We'll be able to start
using this place right away.
[03:57] Saki
Um, what do you think?
[04:01] Mukaido
Yup, perfect.
[04:03] Nasse
It's so cute!
[04:04] Baret
Indeed.
[04:05] Nasse
Those things look like ears.
[04:07] Baret
You have a tail, too.
[04:08] Revel
Is this what you're into?!
[04:09] Mukaido
No!
[04:11] Mukaido
This is a stealth shield-style
piece of headgear.
[04:15] Mukaido
When the "ears" fold down, they become
a goggle-shaped wearable device,
[04:19] Mukaido
which you can control just
through eye movements.
[04:21] Mukaido
I've woven fiber actuators into the suit,
[04:25] Mukaido
and electric oscillation makes
the suit expand and contract
[04:28] Mukaido
to compensate for
Hanakago's physical weakness.
[04:31] Mukaido
In order to dissipate as much of the
heat generated by the suit as possible,
[04:35] Mukaido
the tail keeps the battery away from
the body and functions as a cooling unit.
[04:39] Mukaido
This is how it ended up looking
when I prioritized efficiency.
[04:42] Mukaido
Everything about it has a logic to it.
There's no problem here.
[04:47] Saki
Thank you, Mr. Mukaido.
[04:50] Revel
You're okay with it, Saki?
[04:51] Saki
Yeah, it's good.
[04:53] Nasse
Hey, what's that?
[04:56] Baret
It's a Red Arrow.
[04:58] Mirai
Saki!
[05:01] Mukaido
It's okay. It's my Arrow.
[05:05] Mukaido
I can feel it.
[05:09] Mukaido
If it's returning to me, that means...
[05:11] Baret
One of the 14 people you
shot with Arrows has died.
[05:15] Revel
Which means Mukaido can now use that Arrow.
[05:21] Mukaido
No...
[05:22] Mukaido
Kakehashi, come with me.
[05:24] Mirai
Gotcha.
[05:25] Mukaido
Hanakago, you stay here.
[05:34] Revel
Saki...
[05:39] Mukaido
Damn it. My wife's not answering her phone.
[05:42] Mukaido
If one of the detectives I shot with
an Arrow has been killed, then...
[05:46] Mirai
Metropoliman.
[05:47] Mukaido
Yeah. It's possible he's
discovered my identity.
[05:53] Mukaido
There it is.
[05:56] Mukaido
Who's that? Kakehashi, take care of him!
[05:58] Mirai
Right.
[06:01] Mukaido
Aya! Nanaka!
[06:10] Mukaido
Nanaka!
[06:11] Mukaido
Damn it.
[06:13] Mukaido
Where are you, Aya?
[06:35] Mirai
Who are you? What are you doing here?
[06:38] Hajime
Hilarious. It w-worked.
[06:41] Hajime
So tell me, are you also...
[06:45] Hajime
...a God candidate?
[06:53] Mirai

[06:55] Nasse
He did it!
[06:56] Nasse
He fired off a Red Arrow without hesitating.

SIGN Hajime Sokotani.
SIGN Poor and ugly since the day he was born.
SIGN And as he grew, he got poorer and uglier.
[07:38] Man
What's wrong with that kid's face?
It's hideous! He's painful to look at!
[07:42] Mom
I should never have given birth to you!
[07:43] Voice A
I heard he hasn't paid for his lunches.
[07:45] Voice B
He can't even afford notebooks. How pitiful.
[07:47] Voice C
Apparently, his mom's a sex worker
even though she's ugly as hell.
SIGN His poverty and ugliness peaked in his teenage years.
[07:57] Girl A
Good morning.
[07:58] Girl B
Morning.
[07:59] Girl B
It's been raining a lot lately, huh?
[08:01] Girl A
Yeah.
[08:02] Girl B
My mom told me to take
a change of socks with me.
[08:12] Hajime
Huh?
SIGN I am Balta, a first-rank angel.
SIGN Appearance and wealth have a huge impact on a person's life.
SIGN Don't you want to change this world?
SIGN If you become God—or rather, a God candidate, interesting things will happen.
SIGN That's what my intuition is telling me.
[09:11] Hajime
I... I've always wanted to...
t-talk to a... a girl...
SIGN Okay. With this, you can.

U-Um, I... I want to... k-kiss... to kiss you.
[09:57] Girl A
Sure, okay.

[10:27] Hajime
I s-saw us kissing in the c-classroom
mirror and it creeped me out.
[10:36] Hajime
Th-There's no way the real
me could attract anyone...
SIGN It feels futile, doesn't it?
[10:41] Hajime
You've g-got good instincts.
SIGN Nothing to do with instincts. I can tell just by looking at you.

[11:10] Metropoliman
It goes without saying that I am
here to preserve peace on Earth.
[11:13] ---
H-He's so confident, unlike me!
SIGN I knew you'd be interesting. He's inspiring, isn't he?
SIGN You and he are different types of people.
SIGN The man inside that suit is probably blessed with money and friends.
SIGN A popular and handsome man who's had people fawning over him since the day he was born.
[11:35] Hajime
Handsome... p-popular...
SIGN Well, it's just a hunch, but my hunches are often correct.
[11:43] Metropoliman
I have already defeated one.
[11:45] Hajime
I'll become h-handsome, too!
[11:48] Hajime
I'll shoot a skilled plastic
surgeon with an Arrow.
[11:51] Hajime
I-I'll steal money, too.
I'll be handsome and rich.

[13:24] Girl B

[13:39] Hajime
Even though I'm handsome now,
I still can't talk to girls.
[13:45] Hajime
Are m-my lips still an odd shape?

I've been shot with a Red Arrow by Hajime,
a God candidate who worships you.
[16:34] Noguchi
The other day, I took one of your hairs
so that he could examine your DNA.
[16:40] Noguchi
Hajime wants to be your servant.
[16:43] Noguchi
Please come to the dance
room alone after class.
[16:46] Noguchi
Excuse me.
[16:59] Kanade
So it's true. In that case...
[17:07] Student A
Noguchi, are you all right?
[17:08] Student B
Get her to the nurse's office!
[17:09] Student C
Huh?
[17:10] Student C
She's dead?
[17:11] All
What? This is seriously bad!
[17:14] All
Sir!
[17:19] Hajime
Mr. Kanade U-Uryu?
[17:22] Hajime
N-No, you're not him.
[17:24] Standin
Correct. I'd never just
carelessly walk in here.
[17:29] Standin
I've told this guy to repeat exactly
what I say to him through earphones.
[17:34] Standin
I'm using the cameras installed in
the dance room to observe all this.
[17:39] Standin
You already know what I look like?
[17:41] Hajime
N-No, I'd just heard that you
were a perfect, handsome boy.
[17:47] Kanade
Hey, you're not actually standing
behind this mirror, are you?
[17:52] Hajime
I-Impressive.
[17:54] Kanade
It's obvious if you think about it.
[17:56] Kanade
To shoot me with an Arrow,
[17:58] Kanade
all you'd need to do is install a one-way mirror
in front of the existing one and take aim.
[18:03] Kanade
Even someone with Wings can't fly
around forever in such a confined space.
[18:09] Kanade
He wouldn't want to risk being there, either.
[18:11] Standin
So you mentioned becoming my servant...
What did you mean by that?
[18:16] Hajime
E-Exactly what it sounds like.
I-I want you to make me your servant.
[18:20] Hajime
That... That's r-really all I want.
[18:24] Kanade
If you want to kill someone with
Wings, you should trap them.
[18:27] Kanade
The best way to do that is by
using a box with a one-way mirror.
[18:30] Kanade
Anyone could come up with that.
[18:32] Kanade
You're not selling yourself very well.
[18:35] Standin
But you were able to track me down,
so I acknowledge that you're not stupid.
[18:42] Hajime
No, I just got lucky.
[18:45] Hajime
Or maybe, my a-angel just has good intuition.
[18:49] Meyza
Intuition?
[18:50] Meyza
Balta, the Angel of Intuition.
[18:52] Meyza
It seems he has a first-rank angel.
[18:56] Standin
Hajime, you want to become my servant without so much as having met me, is that correct?
[19:02] Hajime
Yes.
[19:03] Standin
That's awfully convenient for me.
[19:06] Hajime
I-I-I-I'm telling you, I'm your servant.
[19:10] Kanade
I'll prepare the box.
[19:12] Kanade
The real question is how to
trap God candidates inside it.
[19:16] Kanade
If you can do that,
I'll make you my servant.
[19:19] Hajime
Y-Yes, sir. I'll d-do my best.
[19:23] Hajime
I w-want to become your servant.
[19:31] Hajime
M-Mr. Poliman, I've successfully
p-put the bait inside the box.
[19:39] Kanade
You work quick.
[19:41] Hajime
I-I even got Mukaido's cell phone number.
[19:45] Kanade
Really? Not bad.
[19:47] Hajime
M-May I ask you something?
[19:50] Hajime
I'm currently using 13 Red
Arrows, and I've got one left.
[19:55] Hajime
Sh-Should I shoot the mother I captured?
[19:59] Kanade
He's using 13? Is this guy stupid?
[20:01] Kanade
You should be shooting God candidates.
[20:03] Hajime
Y-Yes, sir. Of course, sir.
[20:07] Kanade
Can this guy actually be of any use to me?
[20:11] Kanade
How much can I trust him?
[20:14] Saki
Mr. Mukaido, please calm down.
[20:17] Mukaido
This is me trying to calm down.
[20:20] Baret
Why are you blaming yourself
and trying to hurt yourself?
[20:24] Baret
You should be directing your
blame and resentment at me.
[20:27] Baret
This never would've happened if
I hadn't made you a God candidate.
[20:32] Mukaido
I'm the one who took you up on your offer.
[20:35] Muakido
Not only that, I thought
I'd be helping my wife and child.
[20:38] Mukaido
And now this has happened...
[20:40] Mukaido
God candidate? What a joke.
[20:43] Mukaido
I... I...

[20:55] Mukaido
Where are they?!
[20:57] Kanade
Quit shouting, old man.
[21:00] Kanade
Minamino Theme Park. Go save them.
[21:03] Kanade
That is, if you can.
[21:09] Mirai
Mr. Mukaido!
[21:10] Mirai
I'm coming with you!
[21:11] Saki
Me, too!
[21:12] Mukaido
Don't follow me! You'll only get in my way!
[21:15] Saki
But...
[21:16] Mukaido
You can't fight without Wings!
[21:20] Revel
I can't focus any longer.
[21:23] Revel
All of this information...
There's just way too much to learn.
[21:29] Revel
They keep on falling
endlessly. This is Heaven?
[21:33] Mirai
Revel!
[21:34] Mirai
Look after Saki.
[21:40] Revel
Left behind again, huh?
[21:43] Saki
They might not come back.
[21:45] Revel
What?
[21:47] Saki
This isn't like the Tower.
[21:49] Saki
Mr. Mukaido's family has been taken hostage.
[21:56] Saki
Even when Kakehashi
was all alone, I couldn't...
[22:01] Saki
I'm never able to help anyone.
[22:04] Revel
I thought Saki had finally cheered up,
[22:08] Revel
but she looks the way she did as back then.
[22:11] Saki
If I had Wings, I could help you.
[22:14] Saki
I want us to work together to achieve
our goal and be happy together.
[22:23] Revel
No.
[22:25] Revel
I want to help Saki. I have to!
[22:28] Revel
You just wait, Saki.
[22:30] Mukaido
Aya!
[22:31] Mukaido
Nanaka!
