[00:17] ---
    Morning.
[00:19] ---
    Good morning.
[00:21] ---
    You couldn't sleep?
[00:23] ---
    Not a single wink.
[00:25] ---
    Are you saying it's my fault?
[00:27] ---
    Mai-san is too audacious.
    How can you sleep so soundly?
[00:31] ---
    I've been to many places for filming
    since I was little.
[00:35] ---
    Besides, Sakuta sleeping next to me
    is like nothing.
[00:38] ---
    That's good to hear.
[00:40] ---
    I'll have to pull all sorts of pranks on you
    the next opportunity I get.
[00:43] ---
    Like you'd have the guts to do that.
[00:47] ---
    We're heading back to Fujisawa,
    then to school in the afternoon, right?
[00:50] ---
    I'll get ready, so step outside for a bit.
[00:57] ---
    It's the next morning,
[00:58] ---
    but like before, Mai-san can't be seen
    by anyone other than me.

[02:39] ---
    #3 - The World Without You
[02:42] ---
    What's he up to?
[02:44] ---
    When I asked him yesterday,
    he said he's totally fine.
[02:47] ---
    It's just like normal.
[02:50] ---
    So are they the ones who can't see you,
    or are you actually invisible?
[02:54] ---
    I'll check my classroom.
[02:58] ---
    Azusagawa.
[03:00] ---
    I have bad news.
[03:02] ---
    It looks like everyone other than us
    have forgotten about Sakurajima-senpai.
[03:06] ---
    At the least, Kunimi didn't remember.
[03:09] ---
    Really?
[03:10] ---
    Oh, is that so?
[03:12] ---
    Yesterday's—
[03:13] ---
    Hey, you know who
    Sakurajima-senpai is, right?
[03:16] ---
    Huh? Sakura?
[03:18] ---
    A third year, Mai Sakurajima-senpai.
[03:20] ---
    Hold on, Tomoe.
[03:22] ---
    Why is the Hospitalization Senpai...
[03:24] ---
    Huh? I don't get it.
[03:26] ---
    Sakura-what-senpai?
[03:27] ---
    Let's go.
[03:28] ---
    Why have you forgotten?
[03:30] ---
    I'm talking about the celebrity,
    Sakurajima-senpai!
[03:33] ---
    Hey... Hey!
[03:36] ---
    There's one possible reason...
[03:39] ---
    Did you sleep last night?
[03:41] ---
    Not a wink.
[03:43] ---
    I didn't get one, either.
[03:46] ---
    It may only be a result,
    but there may be a reason in that.
[03:50] ---
    By "that" do you mean how we didn't sleep?
[03:53] ---
    Do you recall our previous chat
    about measurement theory?
[03:57] ---
    Schrödinger's Cat...
[03:58] ---
    To be honest, I thought it was ridiculous.
[04:01] ---
    But when it's presented before my eyes like this,
    I get a chill up my spine.
[04:04] ---
    What does? Adolescence Syndrome?
[04:06] ---
    No...
[04:08] ---
    The fact that she was treated
    like the atmosphere
[04:10] ---
    before something like
    Adolescence Syndrome kicked in.
[04:15] ---
    I, myself, took hints,
[04:17] ---
    and accepted the condition that everyone
    was unconsciously ignoring Sakurajima-senpai.
[04:24] ---
    On the other hand, you could do that
    because you didn't have any doubts.
[04:27] ---
    But that's exactly why I think our clue
    is this atmosphere we have at our school.
[04:32] ---
    Sakurajima isn't being observed by anyone
    at school, so her existence hasn't been confirmed.
[04:39] ---
    For her, this school is the same as that box,
    with her as the cat inside.
[04:45] ---
    If recognition and observation are the keys,
[04:48] ---
    then sleep, where consciousness is inoperative,
    acts as the catalyst for memory loss.
[04:53] ---
    I'm content with that train of thought.
[04:56] ---
    In other words, that means...
[05:00] ---
    If I had fallen asleep last night,
    by now I'd also be...
[05:08] ---
    Is something wrong?
[05:09] ---
    No...
[05:10] ---
    You have work today, right?
[05:12] ---
    But...
[05:13] ---
    You need to take care of things like that.
[05:16] ---
    I'll be fine.
[05:17] ---
    Well then, see you tomorrow.
[05:22] ---
    Nobody is looking at Mai-san...
[05:25] ---
    Mai-san isn't being observed by anyone,
    so her existence hasn't been confirmed.

[05:30] ---
    So she's disappearing.
[05:33] ---
    Because if nobody recognizes you,
    it's the same as not existing in this world.

[05:39] ---
    But, if you're saying that
    the school is where it started,
[05:42] ---
    why are people not connected to the school
    also unable to see Mai-san?
[05:46] ---
    Perhaps she took the atmosphere of school
    to the outside, as well.
[05:52] ---
    Even if that wasn't the case,
    atmospheres can easily spread.
[05:56] ---
    Everyone inadvertently
    takes hints nowadays.
[06:00] ---
    An atmosphere is invisible.
[06:02] ---
    But that atmosphere does indeed exist.
[06:05] ---
    Atmosphere is a ridiculous thing
    to fight against.

[06:12] ---
    You can't be conscious of other people
    while you're sleeping, after all.
[06:16] ---
    At the time you lose consciousness,
[06:18] ---
    you become engulfed
    by the atmospherization phenomenon.
[06:22] ---
    I'll forget if I sleep.
[06:27] ---
    Big Brother, what are you drinking?
[06:30] ---
    I have midterms for the next three days.
[06:34] ---
    Kaede, you should sleep now.
[06:37] ---
    I have to do this while I'm clear-headed.
[06:51] ---
    What is written hereafter is
    truly something unbelievable, but...

[06:57] ---
    Everything is the truth,
    so make sure to read until the very end.

[07:02] ---
    You have to!
[07:03] ---
    "May 6th. I met a wild bunny girl."
[07:12] ---
    Your face is a mess.
[07:15] ---
    Mai-san, you're beautiful as always today.
[07:19] ---
    Your tie is crooked.
[07:21] ---
    Didn't think I'd be able to play newlyweds
    with you this early, Mai-san.
[07:25] ---
    Make your face the only stupid thing here.
[07:28] ---
    You're taking the exams as well?
    You can cheat as much as you want.
[07:33] ---
    I don't have to do that to do well academically.
[07:37] ---
    But it's useless, since they won't pass
    an exam sheet to me.
[07:41] ---
    Yet still you go to school.
    You're so serious.
[07:45] ---
    I wouldn't have anything to do
    if I stayed home.
[07:48] ---
    Besides, maybe someone other than you
    will be able to see me today.
[07:57] ---
    MAY 27th - FIRST DAY OF EXAMS
[08:04] ---
    I can't. Don't sleep.
    If you sleep, you'll forget.

[08:09] ---
    Don't sleep!
[08:14] ---
    Azusagawa, are those dark circles
    under your eyes from cramming all night?
[08:19] ---
    Futaba...
[08:22] ---
    Do you remember?
[08:23] ---
    Huh? What do you mean?
[08:26] ---
    No, It's fine.
[08:29] ---
    See ya.
[08:32] ---
    So your hypothesis turned out to be right.
[08:37] ---
    This turn of events really gets me going.
[08:43] ---
    Isn't there a way?
[08:45] ---
    Quantum Physics for Dummies
[08:45] ---
    Something... anything!
[08:50] ---
    You look like a zombie or something.
[08:53] ---
    MAY 28th - SECOND DAY OF EXAMS
[09:11] ---
    What did you buy?
[09:12] ---
    Uh...
[09:15] ---
    I knew it, you're not sleeping.
[09:19] ---
    Now, sit down.
    Tomorrow's the last day of exams, right?
[09:23] ---
    I'll look over your studies.
[09:25] ---
    I'll do my best
    if you teach me as a bunny girl.
[09:28] ---
    If I did that, your brain would be filled
    with lewd thoughts and you wouldn't study, right?
[09:32] ---
    You wouldn't be able to study like that.
[09:34] ---
    I didn't think about that.
[09:37] ---
    I'll give a reward if you get
    a perfect score on your test.
[09:40] ---
    Is that one of those
    "I'll do anything for you" things?
[09:43] ---
    Even if I say "anything,"
    I couldn't really do anything for you, could I?
[09:46] ---
    Then I'll settle for "taking a bath together."
[09:49] ---
    That's a no-go.
[09:51] ---
    Then how about we go on that date to Kamakura
    that we couldn't do the other day?
[09:55] ---
    That's fine, but are you really okay with that?
[09:58] ---
    Mai-san would like something
    a bit more extreme, I see...
[10:01] ---
    I didn't say such a thing.
[10:03] ---
    Oh, this wakes me up!
[10:05] ---
    Seriously, you're so cheeky
    for being younger than me...
[10:09] ---
    Let's start with modern Japanese,
    doing kanji problems.
[10:13] ---
    Write the kanji for "hoshou" in the sentences,
    "Nobody is here to guarantee a future for Sakuta,"
[10:17] ---
    and "There is no security
    for Sakuta in his final years."
[10:22] ---
    Teacher, I sense animosity
    in the example phrases.
[10:25] ---
    Don't care, write them down.
[10:28] ---
    hoshou (security) / hoshou (guarantee)
[10:29] ---
    Now, which "hoshou" is the one for
    "Nobody is here to guarantee a future for Sakuta"?
[10:33] ---
    Let's see...
[10:35] ---
    Sorry, can I get a hint?
[10:38] ---
    This one means "take on responsibility,"
    and this one is something like "protect."
[10:42] ---
    Which means,
    "I guarantee Mai-san's happy future" is this one,
[10:47] ---
    and "There is substantial security
    in the couple's future" is this one?
[10:51] ---
    Don't go changing the sentences
    on your own.
[10:56] ---
    How's your little sister?
[10:57] ---
    Looks like she's already asleep.
[11:00] ---
    Mai-san, are you an only child?
[11:01] ---
    I have a sister.
[11:03] ---
    A girl born from my father's remarriage
    after parting ways with that mother of mine.
[11:08] ---
    Is she cute?
[11:09] ---
    Not as much as me.
[11:11] ---
    Wow, you're so childish.
[11:13] ---
    Do you like girls who say someone else is "so cute"
    even when she's fully aware that she is cuter?
[11:21] ---
    That's the type I don't like.
[11:23] ---
    Right?
[11:25] ---
    That doesn't mean you should say that
    about your sister...
[11:36] ---
    Oh, good.
[11:37] ---
    Looks like it's taking effect.
[11:39] ---
    I can't... sleep just yet...
[11:43] ---
    You really put in a great effort...
[11:45] ---
    You put in so much effort just for my sake.
[11:48] ---
    No... Not yet... This can't be how...
[11:54] ---
    You've done enough. It's okay now.
[11:58] ---
    Not okay...
[12:00] ---
    I was alone in the beginning,
    so I'll be all right.
[12:04] ---
    Sakuta forgetting about me isn't much.
[12:08] ---
    But still, thanks for everything.
[12:11] ---
    And, I'm sorry.
[12:16] ---
    Good night, Sakuta.
[12:18] ---
    Goodbye.
[12:29] ---
    —ther. Big Brother. It's morning.
[12:37] ---
    It's the last day of your exams, right?
    Won't you be late?
[12:43] ---
    Oh, you're a lifesaver, Kaede.
[12:46] ---
    Thanks for waking me up.
[12:50] ---
    Wh-What is this?
[12:52] ---
    Maybe I thought about having you wear it?
[12:54] ---
    N-Not wearing this!
[12:56] ---
    It's too soon for Kaede
    to be wearing sexy clothing like that!
[13:10] ---
    MAY 29th
[13:13] ---
    "What is written hereafter is
    truly something unbelievable, but...
[13:19] ---
    Everything is the truth,
    so make sure to read until the very end.
[13:23] ---
    You have to!"
[13:25] ---
    What is this?
[13:27] ---
    "May 6th. I met a wild bunny girl.
[13:31] ---
    It was my senpai,
    a third-year at Minegahara High School."
[13:35] ---
    It was that celebrity..."
[13:39] ---
    I guess this is what I'd call my dark past.
[13:42] ---
    I do remember going to Ogaki,
    but I think I was traveling alone...

[13:50] ---
    Am I supposed to fill in the name
    of my girlfriend when I find one?
[13:59] ---
    You look much better today.
[14:02] ---
    Up until yesterday, you looked like a zombie.
[14:05] ---
    Are you the type that crams
    the night before exams?
[14:09] ---
    Nope, I'm the type
    that gives up and hurries to bed.
[14:11] ---
    Thought so.
[14:14] ---
    What's wrong?
[14:15] ---
    No, I just had a feeling
    someone was looking at me...
[14:22] ---
    Yo.
[14:23] ---
    Here.
[14:24] ---
    - A love letter?
    - It's not.
[14:29] ---
    "Suppose that all matter is confirmed to take shape
    as matter in this world once someone observes it."
[14:38] ---
    What is this?
[14:39] ---
    I don't know, either.
[14:41] ---
    I saw it in my textbook this morning...
[14:44] ---
    ...along with this.
[14:44] ---
    Don't think about it.
    Just hand the letter over to Azusagawa.
[14:46] ---
    See ya. I definitely handed it to you.
[14:53] ---
    "...if her disappearance is based on
    the unconscious ignorance of the students,
[14:59] ---
    all you need to do is create a reason
    for existence that overrides it.
[15:03] ---
    In other words, your love needs to override
    the ignorance of every student put together."
[15:11] ---
    Love, huh?
[15:29] ---
    Problem #2 - Read the following excerpt,
    and answer the questions that follow.
[15:34] ---
    Become the hoshou (guarantee) person for him
    Hoshou (secure) the safety of the country
    Sazukeru (entrust) technology to your juniors
[15:34] ---
    Write down the kanji for
    the underlined words in katakana:
[15:39] ---
    hoshou (guarantee)
[15:42] ---
    hoshou (security)
[15:53] ---
    This one means "take on responsibility,"
    and this one is something like "protect."

[15:58] ---
    Write the kanji for "hoshou" in the sentences,
    "Nobody is here to guarantee a future for Sakuta,"

[16:02] ---
    and "There is no security
    for Sakuta in his final years."

[16:05] ---
    hoshou (security)
[16:09] ---
    What?
[16:23] ---
    What's wrong, Azusagawa?
[16:25] ---
    Gotta take a dump!
[16:30] ---
    Something important came back to mind...
[16:33] ---
    The memories of someone I cherished
    have returned.

[16:35] ---
    From here on,
    I must face the atmosphere.

[16:38] ---
    The atmosphere that won't move,
    even if I push, pull or slap it around.

[16:42] ---
    The atmosphere surrounding the school.
[16:44] ---
    It's easy to "follow the leader"
    as a lifestyle.

[16:47] ---
    Deciding if everything is good or bad
    on your own uses a ton of calories,

[16:50] ---
    and to have a will of your own,
    it can hurt to be denied.

[16:54] ---
    To that point, you stay safe and sound
    being the same as everyone else.

[16:59] ---
    You don't have to see
    what you don't want to.

[17:01] ---
    You don't have to think about
    what you don't want to.

[17:04] ---
    You can leave everything to someone else.
[17:07] ---
    But...
[17:08] ---
    There's no reason to torment someone
    just because everyone else is doing it.

[17:13] ---
    Because everyone is doing it,
    because everyone says so...

[17:16] ---
    That doesn't make it true!
[17:18] ---
    Who's this "everyone" anyway?
[17:21] ---
    She always treated me
    as the younger one and teased me.

[17:25] ---
    She blew up whenever she tried sexy talk,
    and her face would get completely red.

[17:29] ---
    She was so obstinate and put up a front,
    trying to hide those mistakes.

[17:33] ---
    Selfish, a queen, whimsical,
    and yet surprisingly naïve.

[17:38] ---
    A senpai one year older than me...
[17:41] ---
    I won't let people ignore her anymore.
[17:43] ---
    I won't let people look and pretend not to.
[17:45] ---
    I'll engrave her into everyone's memory
    so much they won't be able to!

[17:54] ---
    I'm not gonna take hints anymore.
    It's so stupid!
[18:02] ---
    All right, guys! Listen up!
[18:06] ---
    Class 2-1, attendance number 1,
    Sakuta Akutagawa!
[18:12] ---
    To Mai Sakurajima-senpai, in class 3-1...
[18:19] ---
    I'm in love with you, Sakurajima-senpai!
[18:35] ---
    Damn it, I knew it'd be like this.
[18:38] ---
    So much lost from humiliation
    with nothing to gain!
[18:41] ---
    This is exactly why I didn't want
    to go up against the atmosphere!
[18:44] ---
    Bastards!
[18:45] ---
    Mai-san, I love you!
[18:48] ---
    I love you, I love you, I love you,
    I love you, I love you!
[18:52] ---
    Mai-san, I love you!
[18:55] ---
    I want to hold hands
    along Shichirigahama Beach!
[18:57] ---
    I want to see you in
    that bunny girl outfit one more time!
[19:00] ---
    I want to hold you tight!
[19:03] ---
    And I want to kiss you!
[19:12] ---
    In other words, Mai-san...
[19:15] ---
    I love you very, very, very, very, very much!
[19:27] ---
    You don't have to say it
    in such a loud voice, I hear you.
[19:35] ---
    You're being a nuisance.
[19:40] ---
    I figured, since I had the chance,
    I wanted everyone in the world to know.
[19:45] ---
    You're such an idiot.
[19:46] ---
    Better than someone pretending
    to be smart, right?
[19:49] ---
    You really are an idiot.
[19:51] ---
    You'll get more weird rumors about you
    if you stand out doing something like this.
[19:55] ---
    If the rumors are about being with Mai-san,
    I welcome it.
[19:58] ---
    That's not what I mean...
[20:01] ---
    Idiot... Idiot Sakuta!
[20:08] ---
    Ow!
[20:09] ---
    Eh? Why?
[20:11] ---
    Liar! You said you wouldn't forget!
[20:13] ---
    That you'd absolutely never forget!
[20:17] ---
    Sorry...
[20:19] ---
    I won't forgive you.
[20:21] ---
    Sorry...
[20:22] ---
    No way I'll forgive you.
[20:24] ---
    Then I won't let go until you do.
[20:28] ---
    Then I'll never forgive you
    for my whole life.
[20:30] ---
    Eh?
[20:31] ---
    What, you don't want that?
    After making me say all of this...
[20:37] ---
    Um... Your foot...
[20:39] ---
    You're happy I'm stepping on you, right?
[20:41] ---
    Sorry, I'm so sorry.
    I'll reconsider my words, so please forgive me.
[20:45] ---
    Anything else to say?
[20:46] ---
    I'm happy to be stomped on by you.
[20:49] ---
    Those aren't the words I want to hear.
[20:54] ---
    I love you.
[20:56] ---
    Are you sure?
[20:58] ---
    I lied. I love you very much.
[21:03] ---
    Hey, Sakuta.
[21:04] ---
    What?
[21:06] ---
    Tell me that again in a month from now.
[21:08] ---
    Why?
[21:09] ---
    If I answer now, I'll feel like I was steamrolled
    into this from momentum and ambience.
[21:14] ---
    Personally, I'd like to kiss you
    right here on the spot.
[21:17] ---
    Maybe our hearts are racing
    due to the situation we're currently in.
[21:22] ---
    You're unexpectedly calm.
[21:24] ---
    Well, since I can't wait a month,
    can I tell you every day?
[21:28] ---
    That's fine, but you have to do so
    for a whole month.
[21:31] ---
    If you can't, then I'll take it
    that you changed your mind.
[21:40] ---
    Everyone really loves to take hints,
    don't they?
[21:46] ---
    That rumor about Sakuta
    hospitalizing some classmates...
[21:50] ---
    It's all silly nonsense!
[21:54] ---
    How does Sakurajima-senpai
    know about that?
[21:57] ---
    Wait, what kind of relationship do they have?
[22:00] ---
    You wanted to tell everyone, didn't you?
[22:02] ---
    Thanks to you, everyone
    is totally paying attention to me.
[22:05] ---
    Getting lectured in the faculty office
    will be such a drag.
[22:08] ---
    It's fine.
[22:11] ---
    I'll be scolded right there next to you.
[22:13] ---
    Well, in that case, it can't be that bad.
[22:16] ---
    You two over there!
[22:18] ---
    Get over here!
[22:22] ---
    And thus, the world regained Mai Sakurajima.
[22:29] ---
    JUNE 2nd
[22:31] ---
    As I thought,
    your heart is made of iron, Sakuta.
[22:35] ---
    If that was me, I'd die from embarrassment.
[22:38] ---
    Nothing less from you, Azusagawa.
    What a young rascal.
[22:41] ---
    What's that supposed to mean?
[22:44] ---
    When the rumors about hospitalization
    were going around the school,
[22:47] ---
    you said fighting the atmosphere was stupid.
    Did you forget about that?
[22:51] ---
    You did say that.
[22:52] ---
    You couldn't be serious
    for something about yourself,
[22:55] ---
    but you'll face any embarrassment
    for a beautiful senpai.
[22:59] ---
    What is this guy, if not a young rascal?
[23:05] ---
    Hey, in the end, can we say
    that your hypothesis was right?
[23:09] ---
    Who knows?
[23:10] ---
    Illusions shown by unstable psyches or strong
    preconception that come from adolescence...
[23:15] ---
    If that's what Adolescence Syndrome is,
    then scientific inspection won't be reliable.
[23:21] ---
    But it could be that our world is so simple
    that a confession of love can change it.
[23:29] ---
    Just like how you proved it.
[23:33] ---
    Maybe so...
[24:38] ---
    But this wasn't the final incident
    concerning Adolescence Syndrome.

[24:44] ---
    After Schrödinger's Cat, Laplace's Demon...
[24:48] ---
    No... Laplace's Petit-Devil appeared.
[24:55] ---
    Nothing less from you, Senpai.
    What a rascal.
[24:56] ---
