[00:08] Kyo     The kind of soon-to-be-middle-aged bachelor [00:10] Kyo     that you can find just about anywhere. [00:14] Kyo     As you might expect, I've got     no girlfriend, and no money. [00:18] Kyo     And now I don't even have a job... [00:21] Kyo     Which means I can't pay rent anymore, [00:25] Kyo     forcing me to pay for an express bus ticket     with the last of my cash. [00:28] Kyo     And here I find myself,     back at my parents' house. [00:32] Kyo     I tried my hand at everything I could,     and none of it amounted to anything. SIGN    September 2016 SIGN    We wish you luck in your future endeavors. [01:03] Kyouya     Don't do it! [01:14] Kyoya     I can't believe I landed     a gig at SucceedSoft.

[01:39] Eiko     I have something I need to tell you all. [01:43] Eiko     The Platinum project... [01:48] Eiko     has been frozen, as decided     by a meeting of the board of directors. [01:53] Kyoya     Why?! What happened? [01:56] Eiko     I wish I could have done more. [02:01] Eiko     I'm sorry. [02:02] Kyoya     Again... [02:05] Kyoya     It happened again. SIGN    Notice of Acceptance SIGN    Number SIGN    Hashiba Kyoya-sama SIGN    We are contacting you to let you know you passed      the entrance exam to Oonaka University of the Arts      Visual Arts program that you took in 2004.

[02:37] Kyoya     It's too late. [02:41] Miyo     Onii-chan! [02:43] Miyo     Onii-chan. [02:48] Miyo     Finally. Were you so excited     you passed out, or something? [02:51] Kyoya     Come on... are you being sarcastic or— [02:55] Kyoya     Uh... since when are you into cosplay? [02:58] Miyo     What're you talking about? [03:01] Miyo     Anyway, Dad wanted to know what     you wanted for your celebratory dinner. [03:06] Kyoya     Celebrating? [03:08] Miyo     You were freaking out     about getting in before. [03:11] Miyo     "I got into Oonaka Arts!" [03:13] Kyoya     That was a decade ago. [03:17] Miyo     Onii-chan, what are you talking about? [03:19] Kyoya     What do you mean? I could ask you... [03:26] Kyoya     Uh, did you borrow some of my books? [03:30] Miyo     Sure didn't. [03:31] Miyo     You always get mad when I do. [03:33] Kyoya     Huh? [03:34] Kyoya     Didn't we get rid of this CRT? [03:37] Kyoya     Maybe I should use my smartphone to— [03:40] Kyoya     A flip phone?! [03:49] Kyoya     2006?!

[04:07] Kyoya     But right now, what I am experiencing SIGN    Oonaka University of Art, Visual Arts Department [04:11] Kyoya     is the world from ten years ago that     I've been dying to go back to. SIGN    Oonaka University of Art [05:53] Kyoya     I have no idea how it happened,     but I've reverted ten years into the past. [06:03] Kyoya     Here we go. [06:04] Kyoya     Share House Kitayama. [06:06] Nana     Okay, I'll go first, then. [06:08] Nana     I'm Kogure Nanako! [06:10] Nana     I'm originally from Shiga Prefecture! [06:12] Nana     You can call me Nanako! [06:14] Kyoya     Nice to meet you. [06:15] Kyo     Let me guess: it was art school     or a life of crime— [06:20] Nana     You've got a talent     for being a pain in the ass [06:22] Nana     when I've only known you     for, like, 30 seconds. [06:25] Roku     Let's not make fun of her, then. [06:29] Roku     I'm Rokuonji Tsurayuki... [06:32] Roku     I guess I'll keep it casual, too. [06:34] Kyoya     I'll go next! [06:37] Kyoya     I'm Hashiba Kyoya. [06:39] Kyoya     Nice to meet you. [06:40] Kyoya     You can just call me Kyoya too— [06:41] Nana     In that case, Kyoya,     I need to clarify something... [06:45] Kyoya     Wh-What's that? [06:46] Nana     Could you explain the sequence of events     between yesterday and today in detail? [06:50] Kyoya     I already did, though! [06:53] ---     It was a coincidence! And, well... [06:55] Roku     So you coincidentally spent the night     with a girl you just met... [06:59] Roku     Before giving her a little bit     of the milky splash? [07:03] Kyoya     Seriously, it was just a— [07:05] Nana     Unbelievable! [07:08] Roku     This should be interesting, I think. [07:11] Shino     That just leaves me! [07:12] Shino     I'm Shino Aki. [07:14] Shino     I'm from Fukuoka, in Kyushu...     a town called Itoshima. [07:17] Roku     Shinoaki's kind of a     masculine name, isn't it? [07:21] Kyo     Yeah, you're right. [07:23] Shino     Aw, that ain't it, though. [07:25] Shino     Shino's my family name, and Aki's my name. SIGN    S     H     I SIGN    N     O SIGN    A SIGN    K     I [07:28] Shino     So I'm Shino Aki! [07:32] Shino     Y'all can call me Aki, too. [07:35] Nana     What about Shinoaki, though? [07:37] Roku     I really like the sound of Shinoaki. [07:38] Kyoya     Shinoaki it is. [07:40] Shino     Are y'all not gonna listen to me?! [07:44] Nana     Shinoaki! [07:46] News     I wonder if she's asleep already. [07:50] News     Shinoaki? Are you awake? [08:09] News     Akishima Shino... is Shinoaki. [08:13] (Flashback) Shinoaki     Folks who can't do anything     are all trying to find what we can do. [08:19] Ryo     I see. That's what she wants to do, then. [08:24] Kyo     I'm thinking of having the short     take place at a train station. [08:26] Nanako     Why a train station? [08:28] Kyo     Since it's the type of place     everyone is familiar with, [08:30] Kyo     there's a lot of obvious shorthand     that'll help people understand the setting. [08:33] Kyo     And I think it'd be well-suited to a story     that wraps up in three minutes. [08:38] Kyo     What do you think? [08:39] Nanako     Sounds interesting! I think it'll work. [08:41] Shinoaki     I like it, too. [08:43] Shinoaki     I can't wait to see it screened! [08:46] Kyo     What do you think, Tsurayuki? [08:48] Roku     Can I get a half-hour? [08:52] Kyo     What's this? [08:53] Roku     I wrote up a plot for the     setup you described. [08:56] Roku     I figured it was what you were after. [08:58] Kyo     Wow! This is exactly what I meant! [09:01] Kyo     I'm looking forward to the script— [09:02] Roku     Kyoya... [09:04] Roku     You got a second? [09:07] Kyo     What's this? [09:08] Roku     Something from my idea notebook. [09:12] Kyo     Isn't this— [09:14] Roku     It's the exact same thing. [09:15] Roku     Your idea, and what I had     written down in my notes. [09:20] Roku     I swear, I didn't see— [09:21] Roku     Yeah, I know. [09:23] Roku     I actually had it locked up. [09:26] Roku     You couldn't possibly have seen it. [09:27] Roku     But you still managed to come up     with the same idea, [09:32] Roku     like you read my mind. [09:35] Roku     It honestly felt like you took     something right out of my head. [09:38] Kyo     I didn't mean to. [09:40] Roku     It was scary, man, if I'm being honest. [09:44] Kyo     Does that mean I essentially stole the idea     from Tsurayuki's future self? [09:49] Roku     Kyoya, is it just a coincidence? [09:52] Roku     Or is there something else going on here? [09:58] Kano     Production's always got something     to worry about, huh? [10:01] Kano     I heard your group's got     some creative differences. [10:04] Kyo     Well, uh... Yes. [10:09] Kano     A script isn't a finished product. [10:11] Kano     If the point was to just have     people read something, and that's all, [10:13] Kano     it'd be better done as prose. [10:15] Kano     At the script stage,     it can still go either way. [10:19] Kano     What you're doing isn't just     a matter of subtraction. [10:24] Kano     If the production side stops trying,     then that means the whole project is doomed. [10:28] Kano     That's how important it is. [10:30] Kano     I've got one piece of advice for you. [10:33] Kano     Everyone involved in the     filmmaking process is a creator. [10:37] Kano     And no one outranks anyone else. [10:41] Shinoaki     The camera that Tsurayuki-kun     borrowed isn't a video camera. [10:45] Roku     No, that can't be... SIGN    O Digital Single Lens Reflex Camera      Digital Video Camera [10:50] Sign     I marked the wrong one. [10:52] Roku     I'm sorry... I can't believe     it turned out like this... [10:54] Nanako     Hey, everyone makes mistakes.     Not much we can do. [10:57] Shinoaki     Yeah. There's nothing we can do. [11:02] Kyo     Is there... nothing? SIGN    If there's no camera, then we can't film.     If there's no actors, we can't record a performance.     If there's no key art, we don't need to draw anything.     If the writer is missing, we shouldn't bother writing anything.     If there's not enough budget, we'll throw something together.     It is what it is. Nothing we can do about it.     It can't be helped. [11:04] Kyo     Didn't I spend my life ten years in the future [11:08] Kyo     repeating that excuse,     and regretting it every time? [11:11] Kyo     Make excuses... and kick it all down the road,     without actually achieving anything? [11:15] Kyo     Put a hold on everything for ten years,     and see how that turns out? [11:21] Kyo     No! [11:23] Kyo     We are not out of options! [11:26] Kyo     We're going to figure something out, damn it! [11:29] Kyoya     Kawasegawa's team came in first place... [11:32] Kyoya     Which was kind of expected. [11:34] Kyoya     But we came in third... [11:37] Kyoya     That's some fairly high praise. [11:40] Kyoya     But if we had been able to film things     the way we originally intended... [11:44] Kyoya     I bet we would've been better received. [11:46] Roku     This is so damn frustrating! [11:49] Roku     What the hell, man?! [11:51] Roku     I had no idea what you were doing     when we were shooting, [11:54] Roku     but it turned into a proper story,     with a proper ending and everything! [11:57] Roku     You're really something, man! You did great! [12:00] Roku     But... if my script... [12:03] Roku     Not the first one, but the one     I redid with your input... [12:08] Roku     If we had been able to use it properly,     it would've turned out great! [12:12] Roku     Maybe even better than what we turned in... [12:16] Kyoya     Y-Yeah. [12:17] Nanako     I'm bitter, too! [12:19] Nanako     Kyoya, that was seriously amazing! [12:21] Nanako     I was just doing what I was told, [12:24] Nanako     so I'm kinda... No, I'm seriously impressed! [12:29] Nanako     But... I can act well     in a normal film too, so... [12:33] Nanako     So I'm sure that'd... y'know... [12:38] Nanako     Whatever! I'm just gonna say it! [12:40] Nanako     I know I can put on a really     good performance! [12:42] Nanako     So I want to get to act the normal way! [12:46] Shino     Kyoya-kun... [12:47] Shino     You play kinda dirty, huh? [12:50] Shino     And then you get all fired up,     with your eyes flashing. [12:55] Shino     During the shoot...     And during the screening... [12:58] Shino     I was full of butterflies the whole time! [13:01] Kano     Hey, I'm locking up. If you want to     review things, do it somewhere else. [13:06] Kano     Or... [13:08] Kano     Are you discussing your next goal? [13:10] Roommates     Yes! [13:11] Roku     This guy is not... [13:12] Roku     Kyoya isn't... [13:13] Roku     Kyoya-kun ain't... [13:15] Roku     ...gonna show me up! [13:18] Shino     I was hoping one day my eyes     would light up like yours do. [13:25] Shino     But it just don't seem to wanna happen. [13:29] Kyoya     No, that's not what I— [13:30] Shino     So I was thinking... [13:33] Shino     Maybe I should give up on art.     Maybe that'd be easier. [13:38] Kyoya     You can't! [13:40] Kyoya     You can't do that!     You can't stop being an artist! [13:44] Shino     Kyoya-kun? [13:46] Shino     I... I... [13:51] Shino     Your art was always there for me. [13:54] Shino     I... [13:57] Shino     I love your art, Shinoaki. [14:03] Shino     From all the way in the future...     I've loved it. [14:08] Eiko     You weren't serious     about being an actor, then. [14:11] Eiko     You want this, don't you? To be a singer. [14:16] Eiko     Because I thought it was strange. [14:18] Eiko     It's true that you could perform in bits, [14:21] Eiko     but there was no feeling     of intentionality behind it. [14:24] Eiko     It always felt superficial. [14:27] Nanako     It's not like that! [14:28] Eiko     It actually is. [14:30] Eiko     Because you weren't serious about acting. [14:34] Eiko     You can claim otherwise,     but the proof is in the performance. [14:39] Eiko     If you can project your voice so well, [14:41] Eiko     it must mean you've been practicing in one     way or another since you were little, right? [14:44] Eiko     So why would you try to act,     instead of following your passion? [14:49] Nanako     Shut up. [14:51] Eiko     It's because you're scared     of taking it seriously, right? [14:53] Eiko     Because if you start taking something you've     always cared about seriously, and fail? [14:56] Eiko     It would refute everything you stand for. [14:59] Eiko     You were afraid of committing. [15:01] Eiko     So instead, because you got     compliments before, you turned to acting, [15:03] Eiko     and lied about wanting to be an actress. [15:05] Nanako     Shut up! Just stop talking! [15:08] Nanako     What do you know?! [15:09] Nanako     I've loved singing, grown up around music, [15:13] Nanako     but have always been tone deaf. [15:15] Nanako     If I could do something about it,     I would have by now! [15:21] Eiko     But you haven't. [15:23] Eiko     What a waste of a gift. [15:27] Eiko     Stop running away, and get serious! [15:30] Eiko     If you have something you     can seriously chase after, [15:32] Eiko     why wouldn't you make it     your weapon of choice?! [15:35] Eiko     Instead you flit off to acting because     someone gave you some casual compliments! [15:38] Eiko     That won't ever move anyone! [15:41] Keiko     I figured it was time you paid me back. [15:43] Keiko     You wanna come work on our game? [15:45] Kyoya     I'm sorry! [15:47] Kyoya     I can't... not right now. [15:50] Keiko     Seems you've got a full plate, huh? [15:54] Kyoya     I'm sorry. [15:55] Keiko     Hey, the offer's still on the table, all right? [15:58] Keiko     Since I'm here, you can have these. SIGN    Chasing The Morning Sun [16:00] Keiko     They should give you an idea what we're doing. [16:03] Keiko     Catch ya next time. [16:05] Kyoya     I brushed against     the freckles that I hated so... [16:08] Kyoya     Life goes on and I heave     a little sigh for you. [16:11] Kyoya     It's heavy, the love     that I once shared with you... [16:13] Kyoya     But it dissolved like     it was just a sugar cube. [16:16] Kyoya     Now the little pain sitting in my heart... [16:19] Kyoya     Has shrunken a bit,     but it really does hurt me now. [16:20] Nanako     Is this... my voice? [16:24] Kyoya     That's right. It's what your singing     can ultimately sound like. [16:28] Kyoya     All I did was adjust it. [16:31] Kyoya     Your singing has incredible potential! [16:34] Kyoya     And I wanted you to know. [16:43] Nanako     I want to get better at singing. [16:45] Nanako     I'll study for real, practice for real, [16:48] Nanako     and let people hear what     I can do when I'm serious. [16:51] Nanako     Do you think I'll be able to do it?     Will I be able to go that far? [16:56] Kyoya     I'm sure you can. [16:59] Nanako     I'm going to trust you, Kyoya! [17:01] Nanako     So help me figure out singing! Please? [17:06] Kyoya     You're going to be doing all the work. [17:08] Kyoya     But I'll do whatever I can to help you. [17:12] Nanako     Yeah! I'm going to figure     something out, damn it! [17:17] Nanako     Let's make sure to enjoy the finale     of the school festival's concert! [17:36] Nanako     I rush past you with a heart that's run dry [17:42] Nanako     I'm sorry, but there's nothing else I can do [17:49] Nanako     Because even sharing your pain [17:55] Nanako     Is something you want to keep from me [18:02] Nanako     To not ruin what we had,     I couldn't look back [18:08] Nanako     As I turned away and took     my leave on the lonely rail [18:13] Nanako     Following you no matter how much it hurts [18:15] Nanako     This is it, right, Kyoya? [18:17] Nanako     There was no reason to be scared! [18:17] Nanako     Even in the darkest parts of the world [18:20] Nanako     Because I'm... [18:21] Nanako     Because I know you'll be there     shining through into the future! [18:22] (Flashback) Kyoya     Your new video broke ten thousand views! [18:26] (Flashback) Kyoya     I only uploaded it yesterday. [18:27] Nanako     And because I know my weakness, SIGN    Seeji     This made me feel better!! You're only to going to get better from here          Fujiwara     Too amazing... the way you seem to sing in a totally different way, depending on the song... Love it     I seriously love the way your huskiness comes out on the high pitched parts SIGN    Saito     I seriously love the way your huskiness comes out on the high pitched parts [18:29] (Flashback) Kyoya     You've already sung in front     of thousands of people... [18:30] Nanako     I'll fight to keep my soul for breaking; SIGN    Rua     Ahhhh! So good! I love it!          Omurice     Whoa, I never thought you would sing this song... (°°∀°°)     It was just too cool!      Thank you! [18:32] (Flashback) Kyoya     If you ask me, it doesn't make any     sense to be afraid of a few hundred. [18:34] Nanako     I'll do it my way,     and as our moments overlap... [18:39] Nanako     God bless the both of us [18:40] (Flashback) Kyoya     Come on. I'm sure they'll     all become fans of yours. [18:43] Nanako     You were there,     and I was there, and everyone else [18:48] (Flashback) Nanako     Yeah! [18:51] Nanako     Had seemed to disappear [18:51] Nanako     I know the world's not so simple that hard work     is enough to get you where you want to be... [18:56] Nanako     As I tried to create     the beauty of a fleeting dream [18:57] Nanako     But! [18:59] Nanako     I want my feelings to reach them! [19:02] Eiko     Not bad at all. [19:04] Kyoya     This is what Nanako can do     when she's serious. [19:04] Nanako     I ran a finger across my scars [19:06] Eiko     So? What kind of trick     did you use this time? [19:09] Nanako     And that is why I will be [19:11] Kyoya     I wouldn't call it a trick... [19:12] Nanako     Following you no matter how much it hurts [19:13] Kyoya     The videos we uploaded got     a bigger response than I anticipated. [19:15] Nanako     Even in the darkest parts of the world [19:17] Kyoya     Granted, there were negative comments, too. [19:18] Nanako     Because I know you'll be there,     shining through into the future! [19:20] Kyoya     But Nanako's voice drew in a lot     more people than it turned away. [19:25] Kyoya     Nanako didn't run away. [19:25] Nanako     And because I know my weakness, SIGN    ○ Poor enunciation on H-sounds          Abdominals          ○Dotted rhythm      Syncopation process          Wrong pitch?     Mind the distinctions in articulation! [19:27] Kyoya     She kept an open mind     about even the harshest criticisms... [19:28] Nanako     I'll fight to keep my soul for breaking [19:30] Kyoya     And incorporated the advice she got     into the next video she uploaded. [19:31] Nanako     I'll do it my way,     and as our moments overlap... [19:34] Kyoya     On the internet, artists and fans collaborate     to make music through feedback. [19:37] Nanako     God bless the both of us [19:39] Kyoya     And in ten years, when this they dub     this kind of thing "user generated content"... [19:44] Kyoya     Nanako will have gained wings of song. [19:48] Kyoya     The first time I heard this voice,     it captured my heart. [19:52] Kyoya     I wasn't sure why, but now I understand. [19:57] Kyoya     It's nice to meet you, N@NA. [20:01] Nanako     We're all... [20:02] Roku     ...going to make... [20:03] Shino     ...a game? [20:04] Roku     Like, the kind you play on a console? [20:08] Roku     What we're going to make is a doujin game,     and they're usually played on PCs. [20:12] Roku     And we're going to be making a novel game, [20:16] Roku     which uses text and images     for a sort of picture show. [20:20] Roku     That way, we won't need a lot     of technical expertise, plus... [20:24] Roku     I get you! [20:25] Roku     And I'm going to write the script? [20:28] Kyoya     Exactly! [20:29] Kyoya     Shinoaki can do the illustrations. [20:31] Kyoya     And Nanako will handle the background music. [20:33] Shino     Sure thing! Sounds like fun! [20:35] Nanako     But I've hardly composed anything before. [20:39] Kyoya     I'll teach you how, along with how     to use the equipment involved. [20:43] Kyoya     I'm going to be the director,     so I'll be there to back you all up. [20:46] Roku     I'm sorry to drag you all into my business! [20:49] Shino     You don't need to worry none. [20:52] Nanako     Man, I've never seen     Tsurayuki grateful before! [20:55] Roku     I'm deducting my gratitude toward you. [20:57] Nanako     Why?! You should give me extra, in fact! [21:01] Shino     Y'know, the other day,     I saw the strangest-looking folks. [21:01] ---      [21:04] Shino     It was over in the school parking lot. [21:06] Shino     This big old black car pulls up,     and out comes a big fella in a black suit, [21:12] Shino     and this cute gal in a fur coat! [21:18] Kyoya     H-Hey, Tsurayuki, what's gotten into... [21:20] Roku     Guys, sorry, but I need     to make myself scarce for today! [21:23] Kyoya     Wait, why?! [21:30] Sayuri     I knew this was the place! [21:31] Roku     Sayuri-nee... [21:32] Sayuri     Tsu-kun! It's been ages! [21:35] Sayuri     I missed you so much! [21:37] Sayuri     Shouldn't we smooch now,     to celebrate our reunion? [21:40] Sayuri     Come on, Tsu-kun! [21:44] Roku     Hang on a... [21:49] Sayuri     It's a pleasure to meet you all.     My name is Jisshoji Sayuri. [21:53] Sayuri     I am Rokuonji Tsurayuki-san's... [21:56] Sayuri     Fiancée! [21:58] Kyoya     F... F... F... [22:01] Everyone     Fiancée?!
