**[00:14] Toi**

**[00:28] (Flashback) Kazuki**
Why are you throwing it away?
**[00:33] (Flashback) Kazuki**
Do you hate it now?
**[00:34] (Flashback) Toi**
No.
**[00:35] (Flashback) Toi**
But to survive, I have to throw it away.
**[00:39] (Flashback) Kazuki**
Was that the same for me, too?
**[00:42] (Flashback) Kazuki**
I'm not connected to anyone.
**[00:45] (Flashback) Toi**
People realize they were connected
when they no longer are.
**[00:50] (Flashback) Toi**
I have to protect the connections I have.
**[00:54] (Flashback) Toi**
So I'm giving up soccer.
**[01:04] (Flashback) Toi**
Take it.
**[01:07] (Flashback) Toi**
Some dreams come true because
you're disconnected.
**[01:13] Toi**
*Of course he wouldn't remember.*
**[01:17] Chikai**
I guess this is the last
time I see this place.
**[01:20] Toi**
Nii-san.
**[01:21] Toi**
Is everything okay?
**[01:22] Toi**
What's going on?
**[01:23] Chikai**
Who knows?
**[01:25] Chikai**
But there's a good chance they've sniffed
out what happened four years ago.
**[01:31] Chikai**
You'd better not still be
thinking that it's your fault.
**[01:35] Toi**
Not really.
**[01:37] Chikai**
Don't forget, though.
**[01:39] Chikai**
Just as you need me, I need you.
**[01:43] Chikai**
Come with me, Toi.
**[01:46] Toi**
Nii-san...
**[01:50] Chikai**
What's wrong?
**[01:52] Toi**
Give me just a little time.
**[01:55] Toi**
No, I'm going with you.
**[01:57] Toi**
I've made up my mind about that.
**[02:00] Toi**
But there are a couple of people
I want to make sure are okay.
**[02:05] Chikai**
I haven't seen you make that face in a while.
**[02:09] Chikai**
Fine, fine.
**[02:10] Chikai**
I'll be waiting.
**[02:12] Chikai**
But only for one day.
**[02:16] Toi**
Yeah.
**[02:29] [SONG] ---**
Once the background blends together,
there's an invisible street corner
**[02:33] [SONG] ---**
There we are, crying out with fading voices
**[02:38] [SONG] ---**
Go forth with the tearing pain
**[02:42] [SONG] ---**
As though you'd just crawled
away from the worst night ever
**[02:47] [SONG] ---**
You're always alone
**[02:51] [SONG] ---**
Your heart is shouting a sound of desire
**[02:56] [SONG] ---**
If we can ever talk again,
if we can ever connect
**[03:01] [SONG] ---**
I'd be overwhelmed
**[03:06] [SONG] ---**
You grow more and more distant
**[03:08] [SONG] ---**
I chase after you
**[03:15] [SONG] ---**
To tell you my brand new feelings for you
**[03:19] [SONG] ---**
I run like mad
**[03:24] [SONG] ---**
Present, past and future
**[03:27] [SONG] ---**
I want to be connected with you
**[03:29] [SONG] ---**
By our feelings, by the depths of our souls
**[03:48] Enta**
Damn it, Kazuki! That bastard!
**[03:52] Enta**
Why do I have to take all the flack?
**[03:55] Enta**
Who's more important, me or him?
**[04:01] Enta**
Huh?
**[04:01] Enta**
Out of balls already?
**[04:03] Enta**
Damn it, everything sucks.
**[04:06] Chikai**
When everything sucks,
just throw it all away.
**[04:09] Chikai**
You only live once.
**[04:12] Chikai**
You don't get extra lives.
**[04:22] Enta**
Holy...
**[04:24] Chikai**
See?
**[04:28] Chikai**
Is there something on my face?
**[04:30] Enta**
No, nothing.
**[04:31] Enta**
Oh, here. Thanks.
**[04:35] Chikai**
Helping people sure does pay off.
**[04:40] Chikai**
Tch.
**[04:41] Reo**
The leader of a fraud ring that
was working out of the Tama region...
**[04:45] Reo**
Why do we have to deal with it?
**[04:46] Mabu**
The suspect lives in this town.
**[04:50] Reo**
So?
***SIGN*** Shikotama Fraud Incident in Tama, Tokyo April to June, 2019
**[04:51] Mabu**
Apparently, he's wanted in connection
to a fatal shooting four years ago.
**[04:56] Mabu**
If we capture him, we can easily
make him a kappa zombie.
**[05:00] Reo**
Look at this half-baked doll,
so eager to please those people.
**[05:08] Mabu**
Do you honestly think this'll change my mind?
**[05:18] Mabu**
This is only half-baked.
**[05:26] Enta**
A-All clear.
***SIGN*** Pedestrians have the right of way
***SIGN*** Karaokeya
**[05:32] Chikai**
Man, I owe you.
**[05:35] Chikai**
Do you know this place well?
***SIGN*** Umeya
**[05:37] Enta**
I used to hang out here with Kazu—
my friend—ever since I was little.
**[05:42] Chikai**
Everything changes before you know it.
**[05:44] Chikai**
The town, the people...
***SIGN*** Enjoy the day with song and dance
**[05:46] Enta**
Did you do something bad?
**[05:52] Chikai**
Hey, Specs, how old are you?
**[05:55] Enta**
Huh?
**[05:56] Enta**
I'm fourteen. Why?
**[05:57] Chikai**
You're pretty small for fourteen.

**[05:59] Enta**
That's none of your business!
**[06:01] Chikai**
My bad.
**[06:03] Chikai**
I happen to have a brother
that's about your age.
**[06:07] Enta**
I know.
**[06:08] Chikai**
I don't know if it's because I haven't
kept up with him for a while,
**[06:10] Chikai**
but he's gotten so grown-up.
He's not cute anymore.
**[06:13] Chikai**
I'm leaving town with him.
**[06:17] Chikai**
I can't let myself get caught right now.
**[06:22] Enta**
Hey...
**[06:25] Enta**
If it's all right with you, I'd like to help.
**[06:26] Chikai**
Huh?
***SIGN*** Union
**[06:28] Toi**
Grow up already.
**[06:32] Kazuki**
But aren't you pissed off, too?
**[06:34] Kazuki**
We could have granted your wish by now.
**[06:39] Kazuki**
I'm disappointed in Enta.
**[06:42] Kazuki**
He lied to us and betrayed us.
**[06:44] Toi**
I'm sure he has his reasons.
**[06:47] Kazuki**
What reasons?
**[06:49] Toi**
Well...
**[06:50] Toi**
That's not for me to say.
**[06:53] Kazuki**
What the hell?
**[06:54] Kazuki**
So you two are keeping a secret?
**[06:56] Kazuki**
Why are you siding with Enta?
**[06:58] Toi**
No, that's not what I'm doing.
**[07:00] Kazuki**
Forget it.
**[07:01] Kazuki**
I'm going to find the dishes.
**[07:04] Toi**
Hey!
***SIGN*** Kappa Plaza
**[07:06] Toi**
Shit. I'm not good at handling
these situations...
***SIGN*** Sicko Top Man of Shikotama in Hiding?
***SIGN*** Asakusa
***SIGN*** I have something important to tell the prince today, dish. I never would have thought *they* were behind it, dish... But to me, those two don't seem like bad people.
**[07:12] Sara**
*Now for the next story, dish.*
**[07:13] Sara**
* The police force has made*
* an emergency deployment*
**[07:16] Sara**
* in response to the possibility*
* that Kuji Chikai, 25,*
**[07:20] Sara**
* wanted leader of nefarious fraud*
* ring Shikotama, is hiding out in Asakusa.*
**[07:23] ---**
Sicko Top Man of Shikotama in Hiding?
***SIGN*** Asakusa
**[07:27] ---**
Sicko Top Man of Shikotama in Hiding?
***SIGN*** I have something important to tell the prince today, dish. I never would have thought *they* were behind it, dish... But to me, those two don't seem like bad people.
**[07:27] Sara**
*Freeze! Freeze!*
**[07:30] Toi**
I'm out of time.
***SIGN*** Hanayashiki
**[07:37] Chikai**
I haven't been to Hanayashiki in ages.
**[07:42] Chikai**
He used to follow me around,
all like, "Nii-chan, Nii-chan..."
**[07:49] Chikai**
Before I knew it, he's a different person.
**[07:52] Chikai**
He's trying to choose between me
and his buddies right now.
**[07:58] Enta**
Buddies?
**[07:59] Chikai**
I mean, I can't blame him.
**[08:02] Chikai**
I made him give up something
precious to him, after all.
***SIGN*** "Kaisou"
**[08:06] (Flashback) Text**
O Flashback
***SIGN*** X Seaweed
**[08:10] (Flashback) Chikai**
That's the end of it.
**[08:12] (Flashback) Chikai**
Forget about the gun.
**[08:15] (Flashback) Chikai**
Got it?
**[08:16] (Flashback) Toi**
Yeah.
**[08:17] (Flashback) Toi**
I'll catch up with you later.
**[08:19] (Flashback) ---**
Sure.
**[08:30] (Flashback) Toi**
You gave up everything for me.
**[08:34] (Flashback) Toi**
So I'm going to give up what's
most precious to me, too.
**[08:39] Chikai**
He gave up soccer.
**[08:45] Chikai**
He used to say he wanted to become
a soccer player when he grew up.
**[08:52] Enta**
No...
**[08:53] Enta**
...way...
**[08:56] Enta**
This miçanga...
**[09:00] Chikai**
He said he gave the miçanga away, too.
**[09:03] Enta**
To who?!
**[09:04] Enta**
Who did he give it to?!
**[09:05] Chikai**
I wouldn't know.
**[09:07] Chikai**
I'm sure he wanted someone to remember
how much soccer meant to him.
**[09:14] Chikai**
He's too earnest, really.
**[09:17] Chikai**
He'd put himself in danger or
get his hands dirty for my sake.
**[09:23] Chikai**
Even though it's not like I asked him to.
**[09:27] Enta**
Me, too.
**[09:29] Enta**
I would have done anything for Kazuki.
**[09:33] Enta**
No matter how much you do for someone,
if it bears no fruit, it's not worth anything.
**[09:38] Chikai**
That depends on how you look at it yourself.
**[09:41] Chikai**
Just do whatever will make
things easiest for you, then.
**[09:46] Enta**
That's...
***SIGN*** Roller Coaster
***SIGN*** Taito Ward Bulletin Board
**[09:58] Chikai**
I guess I'm out of time.
**[10:00] Enta**
You are.
**[10:02] Enta**
Hurry up, take your brother, and leave.
**[10:07] Yasu**
Chikai...
**[10:09] ---**
Who the heck is that?
**[10:10] Chikai**
Oh, shit.
**[10:11] Yasu**
I'm going to avenge my bro!
**[10:27] Enta**
No, I, uh...
**[10:31] Enta**
H-Hey!
**[10:32] Chikai**
Yo, kid.
**[10:33] Chikai**
Are you with Chikai?
**[10:35] Enta**
N-No, I'm not.
**[10:36] Chikai**
Don't play dumb with me!
**[10:38] Reo**
Over here, policeman!
**[10:41] Mabu**
*We're* the police.
**[10:43] ---**
This happens all the time.
**[10:45] Reo**
What are you doing to that child?
**[10:47] Mabu**
You're violating the Firearms
and Swords Control Act, you know.
**[10:50] Yasu**
I've lived my life until now to kill Chikai.
**[10:51] Yasu**
Shit, shit, shit!
**[10:54] Mabu**
Chikai...
**[10:56] Mabu**
Are you talking about the
wanted fugitive, Kuji Chikai?
**[10:59] Yasu**
I'm not letting you popos have him!
**[11:01] Yasu**
Let him take responsibility
for taking out my bro!
**[11:05] Mabu**
This guy's so stuffy.
**[11:06] Reo**
Kuji's gotten away already.
**[11:08] Yasu**
Quit babbling!
**[11:17] Yasu**
Damn it...
**[11:18] Reo**
Stay out of our way.
**[11:20] Mabu**
We're in the middle of
the street, but oh well.
**[11:23] Yasu**
Do you think you can threaten me with that?
**[11:27] Reo**
We'll open this door for you.
**[11:30] Reo**
Desire or love?
***SIGN*** Fire
**[11:56] Reo**
What do we do with this?
**[11:57] Mabu**
He's valuable kappa zombie material.
**[12:00] Cop A**
What was that gunshot?
**[12:01] Cop B**
There's a man down.
**[12:03] Reo**
Oh dear, we got caught.
**[12:06] Cop A**
He's dead.
**[12:07] Cop A**
Did you two shoot him?
**[12:09] Cop B**
This isn't going to pass as self-defense.
**[12:12] Cop A**
Hey, why don't you two say something?
**[12:15] Cop B**
It was Kuji the fugitive who shot him.
**[12:18] Cop A**
What are you talking about?
**[12:19] Cop B**
Kuji made enemies from the
incident four years ago.
**[12:23] Reo**
Exactly.
**[12:24] Reo**
It's Kuji's fault.
**[12:26] Cop A**
But there's no proof of that anywhere...
**[12:31] Mabu**
Who shot this man?
**[12:34] Cop A**
Kuji the fugitive.
**[12:36] Cop A**
Without a doubt.
***SIGN*** Kaminari Gorogoro Kaikan
**[12:45] Sara**
I've been watching them
for the past few days.
**[12:47] Sara**
I'm certain that these two people
have captured Dark Keppi-sama, dish.
***SIGN*** Yakisoba
***SIGN*** Fire
**[12:52] Keppi**
Reo and Mabu...
**[12:55] Keppi**
I never thought they'd still be alive, kero.
**[12:57] Sara**
And this is our secret anti-otter weapon, dish!
***SIGN*** Secret Anti-Otter Weapon
**[13:03] Keppi**
What's this?
**[13:04] Sara**
It freezes the target solid at the flick
of a switch, so we can catch them alive, dish.
**[13:10] Keppi**
I see.
**[13:11] Keppi**
Then let's first determine
their current location, kero.
***SIGN*** Kappa Ken

**[13:32] Sara**

**[13:40] Keppi**
Out cold...
**[13:41] Sara**
Oh no, dish!
**[13:43] Sara**
The live broadcast is coming up, dish.
**[13:45] Sara**
I can't be late!
**[13:48] Enta**
You're so horrible!
**[13:50] Enta**
I thought I was dead!
**[13:51] Chikai**
The bad ones are the ones
who survive in this world.
**[13:54] Chikai**
Softies like you should
be careful, Specs.
**[13:58] Enta**
You think *you* have the right to say that?
**[13:59] Chikai**
Well, now that you're still alive, you should
go make up with your buddies.
**[14:05] Enta**
No, I don't really...
**[14:09] Chikai**
I gotta go.
**[14:10] Chikai**
Share those with your buddies.
**[14:14] Chikai**
Hey, Masa.
**[14:16] Chikai**
I'm taking a boat there now.
**[14:18] Chikai**
Toi's coming, too, of course.
**[14:25] Toi**
*Jinnai?*
**[14:26] Toi**
*About Yasaka...*
**[14:27] Enta**
Why didn't you say anything?
**[14:29] Toi**
*Huh?*
**[14:30] Enta**
About the miçanga you gave Kazuki!
**[14:34] Toi**
*He remembered?*
**[14:36] Enta**
No, I don't think he realizes.
**[14:38] Toi**
I see.
**[14:40] Toi**
Of course.
**[14:42] Enta**
*Why didn't you tell Kazuki?*
**[14:44] Toi**
He doesn't remember anything.
**[14:46] Toi**
There's no reason to tell him now.
**[14:49] Toi**
*You two go on as the golden duo.*
**[14:53] Enta**
Are you happy with that?
**[14:56] Toi**
I'm going to live for my brother.
**[15:00] Toi**
Bye.
**[15:06] Enta**
You're such a bad liar.
**[15:13] Kazuki**
Not here, either.
**[15:18] Kazuki**
This was where I first met him, wasn't it?
***SIGN*** "Kaisou"
**[15:22] (Flashback) Text**
O Flashback
***SIGN*** X Seaweed
**[15:24] Kazuki**
I used to think Toi was scary and bad news.
**[15:47] Kazuki**
*Hello?*
**[15:50] Kazuki**
*Toi?*
**[15:51] Toi**
I don't need the dishes anymore.
**[15:53] Toi**
I'm leaving town.
**[15:56] Kazuki**
Wh-What are you talking about?
**[15:58] Kazuki**
*Are you angry about what happened?*
**[16:02] Kazuki**
*What's wrong?*
**[16:03] Kazuki**
*Say something!*
**[16:08] Kazuki**
Hang on.
**[16:09] Kazuki**
*I'll do something about it.*
**[16:10] Kazuki**
*Please don't leave, Toi!*
**[16:13] Toi**
People realize they were connected
when they no longer are.
**[16:16] Kazuki**
*What?*
**[16:17] Kazuki**
*What are you talking about?*
**[16:20] Toi**
I have to protect the
connections I have left.
**[16:25] Kazuki**
*Toi!*
**[16:26] Kazuki**
*Toi!*
**[16:28] Kazuki**
Toi!
**[16:41] Kazuki**
Toi...
**[16:52] Chikai**
Did I make you give up
something precious again?
**[16:56] Toi**
Not really.
**[16:58] Toi**
They aren't like that.
***SIGN*** Kappa Plaza

**[17:12] Enta**
There you are.
**[17:13] Enta**
Kazuki!
**[17:18] Enta**
We have to hurry. Toi's leaving.
**[17:20] Enta**
He's really...
***SIGN*** Hope
***SIGN*** Kappa Plaza
***SIGN*** Kappa Plaza
**[17:36] Kazuki**
It's your fault.
**[17:39] Kazuki**
It's your fault that Toi's leaving.
**[17:42] Kazuki**
Toi could have stayed with
us if we had the dishes.
**[17:45] Kazuki**
I feel bad for Toi.
**[17:48] Enta**
What the hell...
**[17:52] Enta**
You keep saying, "Toi, Toi," but you're the
worst for forgetting something so precious.
**[17:58] Enta**
You should have realized
what he was trying to do!
**[18:01] Kazuki**
Why would I listen to anything
you have to say?
**[18:04] Kazuki**
You betrayed us.
***SIGN*** Kappa Plaza
***SIGN*** Kappa Plaza
**[18:09] Kazuki**
I'm done...
**[18:12] Kazuki**
with you.
**[18:20] Enta**
Yeah, well, I...
***SIGN*** Kappa Plaza
***SIGN*** Kappa Plaza
**[18:24] Enta**
I...
**[18:29] Reo**
Found you.
**[18:33] Kazuki**
Cops?
***SIGN*** The Prince of the Kappa Kingdom
**[18:41] Reo**
There they are.
**[18:42] Reo**
The Dishes of Hope.
***SIGN*** Hope
**[18:45] Kazuki**
Why...
**[18:45] Reo**
Why do we know about the dishes, you ask?
**[18:50] Reo**
You don't need to know.
**[18:54] Reo**
Now, it's time to open the door.
**[18:58] Reo**
Desire or love?
***SIGN*** Fire
**[19:02] Enta**
Kazuki!
**[19:32] Kazuki**
Enta!
**[19:33] Reo**
Do you want to save your friend's life?
**[19:36] Reo**
Well, too bad!
***SIGN*** Hope
**[19:37] Reo**
The Dishes of Hope are going
to grant *our* wishes.
**[19:41] Mabu**
That's enough.
**[19:43] Mabu**
Let's go.
**[19:43] Reo**
Come on, it was just getting good.
**[19:46] Mabu**
Call for help.
**[19:47] Mabu**
He might still have time.
**[19:53] Enta**
Kazuki...
**[19:55] Kazuki**
Enta! Are you all right?
**[19:57] Kazuki**
Why would you do this?
**[20:06] Enta**
It's no use.
**[20:08] Enta**
I couldn't even say it as a joke...
**[20:11] Enta**
That I hate you.
**[20:18] Kazuki**
No...
**[20:20] Kazuki**
Enta...
**[20:22] Kazuki**

**[20:32] [SONG] ---**
Stand by me
**[20:34] [SONG] ---**
Please
**[20:37] [SONG] ---**
I don't know if I can become stronger
**[20:43] [SONG] ---**
The rain washes away my tears
**[20:48] [SONG] ---**
I want to be embraced by your warmth
**[20:55] [SONG] ---**
The flickering lightbulb that's been neglected
**[20:58] [SONG] ---**
One morning, it had quietly died
**[21:01] [SONG] ---**
It's almost like you and me
**[21:04] [SONG] ---**
Like the fleeting moment when
we held our hands together
**[21:07] [SONG] ---**
I sat with my arms around my knees
**[21:12] [SONG] ---**
Thinking of the days long gone
**[21:16] [SONG] ---**
Stand by me
**[21:19] [SONG] ---**
Please
**[21:22] [SONG] ---**
I don't know if I can become stronger
**[21:28] [SONG] ---**
Even if you aren't here now
**[21:33] [SONG] ---**
Please give me the courage to reach out
**[21:39] [SONG] ---**
Stand by you
**[21:41] [SONG] ---**
Please
**[21:44] [SONG] ---**
I want to get rid of everything
**[21:50] [SONG] ---**
The rain washes away my tears
**[21:56] [SONG] ---**
I just want to be embraced by your warmth
