[00:09] Kazuki
    When I was five, Haruka was born.
[00:13] Kazuki
    I still remember the day Haruka came home.
[00:19] (Flashback) Dad
    You're a big brother, Kazuki.
[00:23] Kazuki
    That's right.
[00:24] Kazuki
    I'm a big brother.
[00:26] Kazuki
    No matter what, I'm going to protect Haruka.
[00:29] Kazuki
    But my happy little family abruptly ended.
[00:32] Kazuki
    During summer, when I was ten,
    my grandpa said on his death bed...
[00:36] (Flashback) Grandpa
    Your mother was a sloppy woman.
[00:42] Kazuki
    Why did my grandpa say that? I don't know.
[00:48] Kazuki
    There were just two things that were certain.
[00:51] Kazuki
    One was that I had a real mother.
[00:55] Kazuki
    The other is that I was taken
    away from that real mother.
[01:01] Kazuki
    My family wasn't my real family.
[01:05] Kazuki
    No, I was the only one who wasn't connected.
[01:06] (Flashback) Haruka
    Morning.
[01:08] (Flashback) Mom
    Morning, Haruka.
[01:09] (Flashback) Dad
    Morning.
[01:10] (Flashback) Haruka
    Kazu-chan...
[01:13] (Flashback) Haruka
    Morning.
[01:17] (Flashback) Kazuki
    Morning.
[01:19] Kazuki
    I didn't know what happiness
    smelled like anymore.

    Dude, are you serious about this?
[03:02] Kazuki
    Of course.
[03:03] Kazuki
    I'm going to complete this mission,
     no matter what.
[03:07] Toi
    Why do you look so normal?
[03:11] Kazuki
    Oh, I'm going to dress
    up in the washroom later.
[03:13] Toi
    I don't mean that!
[03:16] Toi
    Why don't you say anything,
    even though you know about me now?
[03:20] Kazuki
    I'm not sure.
[03:22] Kazuki
    I was scared at first, too.
[03:25] Kazuki
    But I envied you.
[03:28] Kazuki
    A lot.
[03:29] Toi
    Huh?
[03:30] Toi
    You make no sense.
[03:32] Kazuki
    You're right.
[03:32] Kazuki
    Sorry.

    About that secret phrase we were talking
    about yesterday... I came up with a good one.
[04:47] Kazuki
    What is it?
[04:50] Haruka
    I'll say, "From the beginning to the end."
[04:54] Haruka
    And you'll reply,
    "We're connected in a big circle."
[04:59] Kazuki
    That's a lovely secret phrase, dish.

    I stole Nyantaro.
[20:26] Kazuki
    I became Sara to connect with Haruka.
[20:29] Kazuki
    It wasn't for Haruka. That's a lie.
[20:32] Kazuki
    I, I...
[20:36] Kazuki
    I deceived Haruka to protect myself.
[20:39] Kazuki
    I...

[20:50] [SONG] ---
    I don't know if I can become stronger

    The rain washes away my tears
[21:02] [SONG] ---
    I want to be embraced by your warmth
[21:09] [SONG] ---
    The flickering lightbulb that's been neglected
[21:12] [SONG] ---
    One morning, it had quietly died
[21:15] [SONG] ---
    It's almost like you and me
[21:18] [SONG] ---
    Like the fleeting moment when
    we held our hands together
[21:21] [SONG] ---
    I sat with my arms around my knees
[21:26] [SONG] ---
    Thinking of the days long gone

    I'm glad the last zombie was so tough.
[22:25] Mabu
    We can finally leave our post.
[22:29] Reo

[22:31] Mabu
    It's my lifeline, after all.
[22:35] Reo
    I'm not so sure.
[22:37] Reo
    You really just have a habit
    of chasing pleasure, don't you?
SIGN    For a kappa, a shower...

[22:41] Mabu
    That's foolish.
[22:43] Mabu
    What's the point of prioritizing
    personal feelings?
[22:48] Reo
    You would...
[22:51] Reo
    never understand!
