**[00:02] Shy**
Around the middle of the 21st century,
**[00:04] Shy**
war had disappeared from the
small circle floating in the darkness.
**[00:15] Shy**
People with superhuman strength
suddenly appeared all around the world,
**[00:20] Shy**
wished for peace, and worked really hard!
**[00:29] Shy**
Just where did they come from, and how?
**[00:33] Shy**
We can talk about that later.
**[00:37] Shy**
But they all dressed in a rather
unique and embarrassing manner,
**[00:42] Shy**
so people just referred to them
in the good-old-fashioned way...
**[00:49] Shy**
"Heroes."
**[01:01] Teru**

The world was in an age where
people longed for true peace,
**[01:31] Teru**
where everyone wished for
peace and good fortune.
**[01:35] ABO**
To the right. The right.
**[01:36] Shy**
To make this wish come true,
heroes appeared in many countries.
**[01:37] Rider A**
Stardust is so awesome.

Er... I wouldn't say a shut-in...
**[08:42] Spirit**
No, but I get it! I really do!
**[08:45] Spirit**
We all experience it when we're young!
**[08:47] Spirit**
I used to think about flying around the world
like Century to make everyone total drunkards!
**[08:57] Spirit**
Then wars, crimes, and discrimination
would all seem stupid,

I can't remember!

Oh, but don't you worry!

**[09:55] Teru**
Are you teasing me?!

N-No! What I'm trying to say is...

There's no hero who can
save every single person.
**[10:05] Teru**
Huh?
**[10:06] Spirit**
But still, you can't stop.
**[10:10] Spirit**
Hold tight to all the brilliance
you were able to save.
**[10:13] Spirit**
Carry with you all the brilliance you
weren't able to save, and move forward.
**[10:17] Spirit**
That's what a hero does, right?
**[10:21] Teru**
Pepesha-san... But I...
**[10:27] Spirit**
Oh?
**[10:29] Spirit**
What? An emergency? It's real dangerous?

But I wanna be with Teru-chan a little longer...

Okay, fine! I'm on my way!

**[19:44] Unilord**
Shy.
**[19:47] Unilord**
It has been three months
since you became a hero.
**[19:50] Unilord**
I would have loved to meet you sooner.
**[19:58] Unilord**
Um...
**[20:00] Unilord**
Shy? Can you hear me?
**[20:06] Unilord**
Eh? What is the matter?
**[20:09] Spirit**
Well, she's shy.
**[20:12] Shy**
*I was captivated...*
**[20:14] Shy**
And... who might you be, ma'am?
**[20:18] Unilord**
I am the one charged with
supervising the heroes of Earth...
**[20:22] Unilord**
the Heavenly Empress Unilord.
***SIGN*** Unilord

**[20:24] Shy**

**[20:26] Unilord**
There's no need to be so formal.
**[20:29] Unilord**
Please, feel free to call me...
**[20:35] Unilord**
"Yunicchi."
**[20:43] Unilord**
I'm kidding.
**[20:44] Shy**
*She tells jokes?!*
**[20:46] Spirit**
Okay, Yunicchi. Let's get down to business!
**[20:49] Shy**
*She really called her that?!*
**[20:51] Unilord**
In that case, let me get straight to the point.
**[20:55] Unilord**
In the future,
**[20:57] Unilord**
we will be faced with a grave danger bigger
than anything we've ever faced before.
**[21:03] Shy**
Huh?
**[21:06] Unilord**
And that is the exact reason why
the heroes of Earth have come to be.
**[21:12] Unilord**
Though the world is free of war,
**[21:14] Unilord**
there is a dark place existing in everyone's
hearts that they do not want seen.
**[21:21] Unilord**
Everyone everywhere.
**[21:25] Unilord**
Those who do not seek the light
want to take advantage of this.
**[21:30] Unilord**
Shy...
**[21:32] Unilord**
You must understand this.
**[21:34] Unilord**
The duty of a hero is to become
a beacon of hope for the people,
**[21:40] Unilord**
and to protect the soul of this world.
**[21:45] Shy**
Protect the soul of the world?
**[21:48] Spirit**
That's our real job as heroes.
**[21:54] Shy**
An age where everyone wished
for peace and good fortune...
**[21:59] Shy**
An age where everyone
longed for true peace...
**[22:03] Shy**
This was the age in human history when
the soul was the most meaningful.
**[22:17] Teru**
*A threat to the world...*
**[22:19] Teru**
*The duty of the heroes...*
**[22:21] Teru**
* This whole thing's so huge*
* that it doesn't feel real.*
**[22:26] Teru**
*What exactly is this threat?*
**[22:29] Teacher**
All right, quiet down!
**[22:30] Teacher**
As I mentioned last week, we've got a
new classmate joining our class today.
**[22:35] Teacher**
Come on in, Koishikawa-san.

Okay.

Koishikawa-san, what's Karen Middle like?
**[00:08] Iko**
I'm not sure how to answer that.
**[00:10] Iko**
It's not much different from here.
**[00:12] Nekogawa**
Do you have a boyfriend?
**[00:14] Iko**
A b-boyfriend? No way!
**[00:17] Nekogawa**
What? There's no way you're not
popular! Look how pretty you are.
**[00:21] Iko**
No way. I'm unrefined and not cute at all.
**[00:24] Nekogawa**
Why did you transfer in at
this time of year, anyway?
**[00:29] Iko**
Oh... Because I injured my leg.
**[00:33] Iko**
Commuting all the way to the
next town over got too difficult,
**[00:36] Iko**
so I came here since it's closer to home.
**[00:38] Nekogawa**
O-O-Oh, I see!
**[00:40] Inuyama**
S-S-Sorry, Koishikawa-san!
She's tactless sometimes.
**[00:45] Iko**
Oh! No, it's fine!
**[00:47] Iko**
Don't even worry about it.
**[00:48] Teacher**
Koishikawa-san. Sorry, but could
you come to the faculty office?
**[00:52] Teacher**
We need to go over some paperwork.
**[00:53] Iko**
Oh, sure!
**[00:55] Iko**
Sorry, I gotta go.
**[00:57] Inuyama**
Sure. See you later.

Perhaps she's not even
thinking about you.
**[02:58] Teru**

she'd end up your classmate.

It's nothing. Don't worry, I'm fine.

How can you say you're fine?!
**[03:45] Teru**
I-I'll take you to the nurse's office!
**[03:48] Iko**
O-Okay... Thank you.
**[03:52] Teru**
C-Can you stand?
**[03:54] Iko**
I'm okay.
**[03:57] Iko**
Hey, you're the girl who

I-I'm Teru Momijiyama.
**[04:03] Iko**

**[04:06] Teru**

I'm glad my first friend here

**[04:11] Iko**
You know?
***SIGN*** Nurse's Office
**[04:19] Iko**
Thank you very much.
I'm feeling much better now.
**[04:22] Nurse**
You should rest for a bit longer, though.
**[04:25] Nurse**
I'll be in the faculty room.
**[04:27] Teru**
O-Okay.
**[04:31] Iko**
Sorry to put you through all that trouble.
**[04:34] Teru**
Oh, it's fine!
**[04:35] Iko**
My leg hurts every now and
then, so I take painkillers.
**[04:39] Iko**
But I was so nervous about my first day
at school this morning that I forgot.
**[04:44] Teru**
* If only I'd properly saved her*
* from that accident...*
**[04:48] Teru**
*She wouldn't have to go through this.*
**[04:52] Iko**
Say, Momijiyama-san.
**[04:54] Iko**
You know, you sorta look like Shy, the hero.
**[05:00] Teru**
*Did she figure me out?!*
**[05:01] Iko**
When you called out to me on
the stairs, it reminded me of her.
**[05:06] Iko**
I just keep getting saved left and right.
**[05:11] Iko**
I actually got this injury when Shy saved me.
**[05:16] Iko**
The sight of a hero when you're
in a life-or-death situation...
**[05:21] Iko**
I'm sure it's super common,
**[05:24] Iko**
but when you're the one seeing
it, it's really hard to forget.
**[05:29] Iko**
That's what crossed my mind,
so you ended up looking like a hero.
**[05:36] Iko**
Sorry for being so awkward.
**[05:41] Teru**
Um...
**[05:43] Teru**
Koishikawa-san, do you resent Shy?
**[05:49] Iko**
Why would you ask that?
**[05:52] Teru**
I just thought that if Shy
had saved you properly,
**[05:55] Teru**
you might not have gotten hurt.
**[05:58] Teru**
That's what everyone sa—
**[06:00] Iko**
Nope!
**[06:02] Iko**
No one could resent someone
who works so hard for others.
**[06:08] Iko**
She definitely saved me.
**[06:11] Iko**
Just like you did earlier.
**[06:14] Iko**
You know?
**[06:20] Iko**
What?! Why are you crying?!
**[06:23] Teru**
I'm so sorry... I just
suddenly felt really relieved.
**[06:28] Iko**
You okay?
**[06:29] Teru**
I'm sorry! I'll go wash my face!
**[06:34] Iko**
She's a bit strange...
**[06:38] Iko**
I wonder if she felt sorry for me.
**[06:41] Iko**
Now I feel bad.

Ow...

* I think I understand that*
* a little better now.*
**[08:11] Teru**

**[08:13] Teru**
I didn't mean to just start crying.
**[08:17] Teru**

It's her heart.

A-Are you the one who did
something to Koishikawa-san?

Yup.

Her heart seemed like it

My parents died...

because they saved me.
**[12:42] Iko**
The house we lived in caught fire.
**[12:45] Iko**
My parents... got my little brother and
me to safety first and stayed behind.
**[12:52] Iko**
Yeah, that's right...
**[12:55] Iko**
If they hadn't saved me, my father
and mother wouldn't have died.
**[12:59] Iko**
And then... no one would've said
bad things about Shy, either.

Heroes aren't fair...

**[17:49] Iko**
I can't protect those important to me!
***SIGN*** "Nothing good ever comes of it."
**[17:53] Iko**
I... don't need anyone to save me!
**[17:54] Shrimpy**
*Teru!*
**[18:00] (Flashback) Young Teru**
Hey, Grandpa.
**[18:03] (Flashback) Young Teru**
Why does everyone try to help others?
**[18:10] (Flashback) Young Teru**
Even if you help others,
nothing good ever comes of it.
**[18:16] (Flashback) Grandpa**
Teru, you see... people can't live alone.
**[18:21] (Flashback) Grandpa**
Not even a single day.
No matter who they are.
**[18:25] (Flashback) Grandpa**
When people live for others,
**[18:27] (Flashback) Grandpa**
that's when they feel the happiest.
**[18:30] (Flashback) Grandpa**
Because that's how God made us.
**[18:33] (Flashback) Young Teru**
Even if they die?
**[18:37] (Flashback) Young Teru**
Even if they died for someone
else, are they happy?
**[18:42] (Flashback) Grandpa**
When someone dies, Teru,
**[18:44] (Flashback) Grandpa**
do you think there's no more
happiness or anything else?
**[18:48] (Flashback) Young Teru**
I mean...
**[18:51] (Flashback) Young Teru**
There's nothing.
**[18:57] (Flashback) Young Teru**
They're nowhere...
**[19:02] (Flashback) Grandpa**
You're wrong about that.
**[19:07] (Flashback) Grandpa**
When someone lives for someone else's sake,
**[19:09] (Flashback) Grandpa**
they continue to live on
in that person's heart.
**[19:12] (Flashback) Grandpa**
And then that person continues living for
another, forging a connection of kindness.
**[19:18] (Flashback) Grandpa**
They risk their lives for that connection.
**[19:22] (Flashback) Grandpa**
At least, that's what your grandpa thinks.
**[19:25] (Flashback) Grandpa**
Teru, kindness is connected to you, too.
**[19:30] (Flashback) Grandpa**
Once you realize that,
**[19:33] (Flashback) Grandpa**
and when you connect with someone...
**[19:35] (Flashback) Grandpa**
I'm sure you'll understand what I mean.
**[19:45] Iko**
Help... me...
**[19:47] Iko**
Help me... someone...
**[19:50] Iko**
Help me...
**[19:52] (Flashback) Iko's father**
Iko...
**[19:53] (Flashback) Iko's father**
Iko! Look! Help is here!
**[19:58] (Flashback) Young Iko**
Dad! Mom!
**[20:01] (Flashback) Iko's Mom**
Your father and I will be all right.
**[20:04] (Flashback) Iko's mom**
We'll see you soon.
**[20:06] (Flashback) Iko's Mom**
Until then, stay by your brother's side.
**[20:09] (Flashback) Young Iko**
No, wait... No... Wait!
**[20:12] (Flashback) Iko's Mom**
He'll be fine with his
big sister by his side!
**[20:14] (Flashback) Young Iko**
No! Don't stay there!
**[20:17] (Flashback) Young Iko**
Don't leave me behind!
**[20:19] (Flashback) Young Iko**
I want to stay with you!
**[20:27] Iko**
What should I have done?
**[20:29] Iko**
Should I have never been born?
**[20:33] Iko**
If only I hadn't wished for
someone to save me...
**[20:38] Iko's mom**
Iko.
**[20:44] Iko's mom**
You can't let yourself be
tied down here anymore.
**[20:49] Iko's mom**
Stop blaming yourself by thinking
someone saving you is a sin you committed.
**[20:54] Iko's mom**
Show someone your kindness.
**[21:00] Iko's mom**
It's okay.
**[21:03] Shy**
It's okay.
**[21:12] Shy**
I've come to help you.
**[21:14] Iko**
Momijiyama-san...
**[21:19] Shy**
It's okay now.
**[21:22] Shy**
You're all right now.
**[21:26] Shy**
So stop hurting yourself so much.
**[21:30] Iko**
M-Momijiyama-san!
**[21:33] Iko**
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry! It's all my fault...
**[21:37] Shy**
I-It's okay. I'm fine.
**[21:44] Shrimpy**
* Teru, did you know that*
* the crystal would shatter?*
**[21:48] Shy**
I didn't... at all.
**[21:52] Shy**
I just had a feeling that if
I put it close to my heart...
**[21:56] Shy**
Though it was just a hunch...
**[22:02] Stigma**
Huh...
**[22:05] Stigma**
Shy, eh?
**[22:17] Iko**
Um... I did something really awful to you.
**[22:22] Iko**
All this trouble because of me...
**[22:24] Iko**
I'm so sorry.
**[22:29] Shy**
My grandpa once told me,
**[22:32] Shy**
"When people live for others,
that's when they feel the happiest."
**[22:37] Iko**
But...
**[22:38] Iko**
And when you connect through kindness,
it'll pass on to someone else.
**[22:43] Iko**
And that's worth risking your life for.
**[22:47] Iko**
If you feel guilty, Koishikawa-san,
**[22:50] Iko**
then please pass on some
kindness to someone else.
**[22:55] Iko**
If everyone is able to smile because of
that, nothing could make me happier.
**[23:03] Iko**
Yeah...
**[23:05] Iko**
Okay.
**[23:08] Shrimpy**
*Reporting.*
**[23:09] Shrimpy**

Momijiyama-san, I haven't said this to you yet...
**[23:22] Shy**
Huh? S-Said what?
**[23:26] Iko**
Thank you so much...
**[23:30] Iko**
for saving me!
**[23:33] Shrimpy**
*No injuries or deaths.*

**[00:01] Teru**
* It's been a few days since*
* the incident at school.*
**[00:04] Teru**
*Today is a day off.*
**[00:08] Teru**
Sh-Shrimpy-san...
**[00:10] Teru**
Are you sure I don't look weird in this outfit?
**[00:14] Shrimpy**
I think you look perfectly fine.
**[00:15] Teru**
P-Please don't poke your head out so much!
**[00:18] Teru**
People will realize that I'm Shy!
**[00:21] Shrimpy**
Unbelievable. I only came along because
you were nervous and asked me to.
**[00:25] Teru**
Well... i-i-it's been so long
since I went out with a friend.
**[00:32] Iko**
Hey!
**[00:33] Iko**
Momijiyama-san!
**[00:35] Iko**
Sorry! Have you been waiting long?
**[00:38] Teru**
No! I just got here.
**[00:40] Iko**
Really? That's good.
**[00:43] Iko**
And you must be the Shrimpy-san that
I keep hearing about. Nice to meet you.
**[00:46] Shrimpy**
Pleasure.
**[00:50] Teru**
K-Koishikawa-san, are you
sure your leg is okay?
**[00:55] Iko**
Yeah! Check it out!
It doesn't hurt at all anymore!
**[01:00] Iko**
I had it checked, and the doctor said
it's fine. Nothing's wrong with it.
**[01:03] Iko**
Though they did say it's
unusual that it's fine now.
**[01:08] Teru**
* According to Shrimpy-san,*
* Koishikawa-san's leg*
**[01:11] Teru**
* might've gotten better due to*
* a side effect from the ring.*
**[01:16] Teru**
*We're currently awaiting more details.*
**[01:19] Iko**
Momijiyama-san!
***SIGN*** Additional shows added!!
**[01:22] Iko**
Come on, let's go! I want
to thank you properly today.
**[01:26] Iko**
By the way, that outfit's really cute on you!
**[01:30] Teru**
Huh?!
**[01:33] Teru**
Fank you very mush!
***SIGN*** Episode 3
Conversation at

**[03:16] Iko**
Man, this is fun!
**[03:19] Iko**
It's been so long since I've been able to walk
around freely like this. It's super fun!
**[03:26] Iko**
Are you having fun?
**[03:29] Teru**
Y-Yup... Having lots of fun...
**[03:32] Iko**
Momijiyama-san?!
**[03:33] Iko**
Wh-What's wrong?
**[03:35] Teru**
Nothing. It's just...
**[03:37] Shrimpy**
Teru ends up feeling unwell when
she does lively activities like this.
**[03:42] Iko**
Really?!
***SIGN*** Shock
**[03:43] Teru**
I'm an indoor person.
In other words, I'm a shut-in...
**[03:48] Iko**
A shut-in?!
***SIGN*** Indoor person
(Shut-in)
**[03:50] Iko**
S-Sorry. Why don't we rest a bit?
**[03:52] Teru**
Sorry about this...
**[03:56] Iko**
I really had no idea that
you were the indoor type.
**[04:02] Teru**
I'm sorry. All this because I'm
an indoor person... a shut-in.
**[04:07] Iko**
I'm really sorry. I wanted to
thank you for everything today...
**[04:12] Teru**
* O-Oh, no. I'm letting Koishikawa-san*
* down because of my creepy condition.*
**[04:19] Teru**
* I need to bring up something*
* to make her laugh.*
**[04:23] Teru**
B-By the way, when I went back to the
nurse's office, it was totally d-demolished...
**[04:28] Teru**
R-Remember when I said, "A bear
came in!" and they believed me?
***SIGN*** Uh...
***SIGN*** It went raaawr
***SIGN*** Bear
**[04:31] Teru**
W-W-W-W-W-Wasn't that hilarious?
**[04:34] Iko**
The nurse's office... That's
right... I destroyed it...
**[04:40] Iko**
There was an alert for an imaginary bear
all throughout town because of me...
**[04:44] Teru**
No! That's not it! Um...
**[04:46] Teru**
* Don't try to get laughs when*
* you suck at talking, you dummy!*
**[04:49] Teru**
*I always do this!*
**[04:52] Teru**
*I just want to disappear.*
**[04:53] Teru**
*I want to vanish and become the wind...*
**[04:57] Iko**
You're amazing, Momijiyama-san.
**[05:01] Iko**
You're the same age as me,
**[05:03] Iko**
but you've been through things like what
happened the other day so many times.
**[05:06] Iko**
You've saved so many people
and faced danger head-on.
**[05:10] Iko**
I admire you so much.
**[05:11] Teru**
H-Huh?!
**[05:13] Teru**
Wait, you don't need to admire me...
**[05:17] Iko**
By the way, does anyone
else know that you're Shy?
**[05:22] Teru**
No, I haven't told anyone.
**[05:25] Teru**
Basically just you and the other heroes.
**[05:28] Iko**
Huh?! Wh-What about your parents?
**[05:30] Teru**
I mean... it's really embarrassing
flying around in that outfit.
***SIGN*** That outfit
***SIGN*** That outfit
**[05:34] Teru**
I don't want them to find out.
**[05:36] Iko**
R-Really? I think it's cool.
***SIGN*** That outfit
**[05:40] Iko**
But I see... So that makes me...
**[05:43] Iko**
your only friend who knows
Shy's true identity!
**[05:46] Iko**
That is what that means, right?!
**[05:50] Iko**
You know... that's really awesome!
**[05:53] Teru**
U-Um... Koishikawa-san?
**[05:56] Iko**
Oh, uh, never mind...
**[06:06] Teru**
A little boy?
**[06:07] Iko**
Oh, dear. What's the matter, kiddo?
**[06:10] Lost boy**
I can't find my mom and dad.
**[06:14] Iko**
Ah...
**[06:15] Iko**
That happens all the time.
**[06:17] Lost boy**
It does?
**[06:19] Iko**
You bet. This is pattern 27.
**[06:23] Iko**
The key to solving this problem
lies within your Zweihänder!
**[06:26] Teru**
His Z-Zweihänder?!
**[06:28] Lost boy**
My Zweihänder?!
**[06:30] Teru**
What's a Zweihänder?
**[06:32] Shrimpy**
This is a Zweihänder!
**[06:34] Teru**
Shrimpy-san?!
**[06:36] Iko**
All right, kiddo. Let's go on an
adventure to find your parents!
**[06:40] Lost Boy**
Okay!
**[06:41] Teru**
Zwei...
**[06:42] Iko**
Sorry, Momijiyama-san.
Let's take a little detour.
**[06:46] Teru**
Oh, sure.
**[06:48] Iko**
Let me know as soon as you see them.
**[06:50] Lost boy**
Okay, I will.
**[06:52] Teru**
You're really good with
kids, Koishikawa-san.
**[06:57] Iko**
You think so? I wonder if it's because I've
been taking care of my little brother.
**[07:01] Iko**
Oh, yeah! My little brother said
you saved him at the T-1 Hotel.
**[07:06] Iko**
Thanks, Momijiyama-san!
**[07:09] Iko**
Heroes really are amazing.
**[07:12] Teru**
Er, it's really not a big deal...
**[07:16] Iko**
But I wonder where this kiddo's parents—
**[07:19] Lost Boy**
Over there!
**[07:22] Lost Boy**
Hey!
**[07:26] Lost Boy's father**
Where were you? We were so worried.
**[07:26] Lost Boy's mother**
Honestly...
**[07:28] Iko**
That got resolved faster
than I thought it would.
**[07:30] Iko**
Okay, Momijiyama-san!
Let's go to our next spot!
**[07:32] Teru**
Oh, sure.
**[07:34] Lost Boy**
Oh, hey!
**[07:37] Lost Boy**
Thanks for being so nice to me!
**[07:39] Iko**
Whoa. You've got a good head on your
shoulders to say thank you properly.
**[07:44] Iko**
Now, since I know I can rely on you,
I've got a very important mission for you.
**[07:48] Iko**
Whether it be your mom
or dad or anyone else...
**[07:52] Iko**
Make sure you're nice to them, too.
**[07:55] Iko**
Think you can do it, kiddo?
**[07:58] Lost Boy**
Yeah!
**[08:05] Teru**
Koishikawa-san, I've been thinking
about this for a while, but...
**[08:09] Iko**
Man, Momijiyama-san...
**[08:10] Teru**
Huh?
**[08:11] Iko**
I did it! I totally said something
Shy's said in front of Shy!
**[08:17] Iko**
Oh, man! I'm so embarrassed right now!
**[08:19] Iko**
But I really thought I should
tell him that, so I, uh...
**[08:24] Teru**
It's the same.
**[08:25] Iko**
Huh?
**[08:26] Teru**
Earlier, you said that you admired me...
**[08:31] Teru**
But I admire you, too, since you didn't
even hesitate to help that little boy.
**[08:37] Teru**
Heroes and normal people are the same.
**[08:40] Teru**
When you're connecting through kindness,
it doesn't matter who you are.
**[08:44] Teru**
You made me realize that, Koishikawa-san.
**[08:48] Teru**
Oh, I-I'm sorry! I said something weird again!
**[08:52] Teru**
Wow... I've been talking a lot today.
**[08:56] Iko**
Okay, let's get going! We definitely
haven't had enough fun yet.
**[08:59] Teru**
Oh, sure. Let's go.
**[09:07] Iko**
Look, Momijiyama-san.
**[09:10] Iko**
It's a poster of Stardust.
**[09:14] Iko**
Have you ever met him?
**[09:16] Teru**
No, I haven't.
**[09:18] Iko**
A rock star and a hero.
**[09:21] Iko**
I guess he's the only hero who's publicly
revealed his name and true identity.
**[09:26] Iko**
He's donated over five billion dollars
to charitable organizations.
**[09:29] Iko**
He's established international relief groups,
and his songs comfort so many people.
**[09:34] Iko**
The number of people he's indirectly
saved is more than any other hero by far.
**[09:40] Teru**
Y-You seem to know a lot about him.
**[09:42] Iko**
Oh, I just happened to
read all this in a book.
**[09:46] Iko**
I figure he's also someone who's
caring and overflowing with kindness.
**[09:51] Teru**
Probably.
**[09:53] Shrimpy**
Teru, you've got a call from Spirit.
**[09:56] Teru**
Huh?
**[09:59] Pepesha**
*Hello, Teru-chan! It's me, Spirit.*
**[10:03] Pepesha**
*From Russia with love!*
**[10:05] Iko**
Phone call?
**[10:06] Teru**
Oh, um... Another hero is calling me.
**[10:10] Pepesha**
* Unilord is summoning you.*
* Bring your friend, too.*
**[10:14] Teru**
Huh?
**[10:15] Pepesha**
* You'll be heading to the*
* spaceship we went to before.*
**[10:17] Pepesha**
*I'll be going, too.*
**[10:18] Iko**
Is it important?
**[10:21] Teru**
You and I have been invited to outer space.
**[10:24] Iko**
Say what?!
**[10:26] Pepesha**
* Oh, and I guess Stardust*
* will be there this time, too.*
**[10:30] Teru**
S-Stardust, too? Um...
**[10:34] Teru**
U-Um... What's he like? I, uh...
**[10:38] Pepesha**
* Ah, you're living up to your name,*
* I see. You'll be fine, jeez!*
**[10:45] Pepesha**
Well... He's very good with words, decisive,
super confident, and charismatic.
**[10:53] Pepesha**
He's charming, a great singer,
and very good with his words...
**[10:57] Teru**
*Um... Are you drunk?*
**[11:00] Pepesha**
You know, if I had to
compare him to something...
**[11:06] Pepesha**
I'd say he's a psychopath.
**[11:11] Director**
And cut!
**[11:16] Director**
Wow...
**[11:17] Director**
Your newest album is the best.
**[11:20] Director**
That's making this music
video shoot incredibly fun.
**[11:23] Davie**
You think so?
**[11:25] Davie**
I wonder if we got the right flow.
**[11:27] Director**
Want to go out tonight?
**[11:28] Davie**
Well, I'd love to...
**[11:32] Davie**
But sorry.
***SIGN*** Stardust

Heya! Nice to meet you.
**[11:51] Iko**
It's Spirit!
**[11:52] Shy**
H-Hello.
**[11:54] Iko**
We sure have been seeing each
other a lot lately, Teru-chan.
**[11:57] Shy**
This is Iko Koishikawa-san.
**[11:59] Iko**
I-I'm Koishikawa. It's nice to meet you.
**[12:02] Spirit**
Goodness, aren't you a cutie? Pleasure.
**[12:05] Shy**
Um... So why am I being summoned?
**[12:08] Spirit**
Teru-chan, you retrieved
that black ring, right?
**[12:13] Spirit**
That was actually the first time anyone
retrieved it in its complete form.
**[12:19] Spirit**
You did something pretty amazing, Teru-chan.
**[12:22] Shy**
The ring...
**[12:24] Shy**
About that ring... There was this boy and...
**[12:28] Shy**
There's so much I don't understand.
**[12:32] Spirit**
I bet.
**[12:34] Spirit**
Well, anyway...
**[12:36] Spirit**
Let's get going to our home base.
**[12:39] Spirit**
We'll need you to stay back
in Japan, Shrimpy-san.
**[12:42] Shrimpy**
Roger. I'll contact you if anything happens.
**[12:45] Shy**
U-Um, could I get an answer?
**[12:56] Iko**
It...
**[12:57] Iko**
It's the Earth!
**[13:00] Iko**
M-M-M-Momijiyama-san!
We can see the Earth from here!
***SIGN*** Earth!

You two, this way.
**[13:09] Spirit**
Unilord will give you all the details,
but that boy you encountered, Teru-chan...
**[13:14] Spirit**
We call him "Stigma." He's actually
been spotted all around the world.
**[13:20] Shy**
Around the world? But what's he after?
**[13:24] Spirit**
Hm... Apparently he keeps saying that
he wants to free people's hearts...
**[13:29] Spirit**
But there's really no way
for us to know for sure.
**[13:32] Shy**
People's hearts...
**[13:34] Spirit**
But for us heroes, he's our biggest problem.
**[13:37] Spirit**
He's our top priority.
**[13:41] Spirit**
Okay, we're here.
**[13:43] Spirit**
Knock, knock! Pardon us!
**[13:46] Spirit**
Hm, I wonder where Yunicchi is.
**[13:48] Unilord**
Oh?
**[13:49] Unilord**
So you're already here.

Here. Let's go.
**[13:52] Spirit**
Oh, my.
**[13:53] Iko**
So many Shrimpys.
**[13:55] Shy**
It's...
**[13:56] Shy**
It's so homey!
**[13:57] Unilord**
There we go.
**[13:59] Spirit**
Are you making borscht?
**[14:00] Unilord**
I've been obsessed with soups lately.
**[14:03] Iko**
M-Momijiyama-san, who's that?
**[14:06] Shy**
Oh, that's...
**[14:08] Unilord**
Please forgive my late introduction.
**[14:10] Unilord**
My name is Unilord.
**[14:14] Unilord**
I'm in charge of supervising heroes.
**[14:17] Iko**
Supervising heroes?
**[14:19] Unilord**
What you went through must
have been very scary.
**[14:23] Unilord**
We heroes feel quite responsible.
**[14:26] Unilord**
Right now, since you are Shy's
friend, we would like to tell you
**[14:30] Unilord**
what we must do for our own sakes and
against the danger facing the world, as well.
**[14:36] Unilord**
But first, let's have a chat over
my soup. I'm very proud of it.
**[14:40] Shrimpys**
Yes.
**[14:41] Spirit**
Whoo! Let's eat!
**[14:47] Spirit**
Wow, it's actually really good.
**[14:50] Spirit**
Is the secret ingredient soy sauce?
**[14:52] Unilord**
Oh, did you notice?
It makes the soup much richer.
**[14:56] Shy**
It does.
**[14:57] Iko**
Um!
**[14:58] Iko**
Can...
**[15:00] Iko**
Can I take a picture?!
**[15:02] Shy**
Huh?!
**[15:04] Unilord**
Iko-san...
**[15:05] Unilord**
This is a top-secret location, so I cannot
allow unauthorized photography.
**[15:10] Iko**
Aw...
**[15:11] Unilord**
So as for photos...
**[15:13] Unilord**
Please take them in the photo booth.
**[15:15] Iko**
Hurray!
**[15:16] Shy**
*That's a thing?!*
**[15:18] Unilord**
Say cheese.
**[15:19] Spirit**
Yay.
**[15:22] Iko**
Wow.
**[15:23] Iko**
My brother's going to be
so jealous when I show him.
**[15:26] Shy**
Do you like heroes, Koishikawa-san?
**[15:30] Iko**
D-Do you think that's weird?
**[15:32] Iko**
Especially since I'm in middle school...
**[15:34] Shy**
Oh, no! Also, I mean, so am I.
**[15:38] Shy**
And I'm the one who's dressed weird.
**[15:40] Iko**
No, no! Th-That's not what I meant!
**[15:46] Stardust**
Be careful.
**[15:48] Shy**
Huh?
**[15:49] Iko**
Stardust!
**[15:51] Iko**
I-It's really him...
**[15:54] Unilord**
Well, I see we're all here now.
**[16:00] Stardust**
Well? What did you want to talk about?
**[16:03] Unilord**
Stigma appeared in Japan.
**[16:06] Unilord**
Thankfully, Shy was able
to retrieve the ring.
**[16:09] Stardust**
Huh... A complete one.
**[16:13] Stardust**
How'd you pull that off?
**[16:14] Shy**
Huh? Um...
**[16:16] Shy**
I heard that ring shows a person's heart...
**[16:19] Shy**
So I tried to understand
Koishikawa-san's heart and...
**[16:22] Shy**
I worked really hard, and suddenly...
**[16:25] Stardust**
Ah, that must be her.
**[16:26] Stardust**
I was wondering why there
was a civilian here.
**[16:29] Iko**
Um... So what exactly is that ring?
**[16:33] Iko**
And what happened to me?
**[16:37] Unilord**
This uses a person's heart as
an energy source to crystallize,
**[16:42] Unilord**
and turns into a device that
processes that into immense power.
**[16:46] Shy**
It uses a person's heart as an energy source?
**[16:49] Shy**
Is that even possible?
**[16:51] Unilord**
A person's heart is filled with an
unimaginable amount of power.
**[16:57] Unilord**
Our own rings, the Heart-shift bracelets,
**[17:00] Unilord**
also use people's hearts
as their energy source.
**[17:05] Unilord**
But this ring forces its way deep
into the heart of the wearer
**[17:10] Unilord**
and tries to draw out the darkness
within. It's made from malice.
**[17:15] Stardust**
The first time it was seen
was in my country a year ago.
**[17:21] Stardust**
I saw it with my own eyes.
**[17:26] Stardust**
That day, he used my friend
to cause a huge tragedy.
**[17:37] Shy**
Y-You mean your friend had the ring on?
**[17:42] Stardust**
Correct. Just like what happened to you, Shy.
**[17:45] Iko**
Um... How did you deal with that?
**[17:48] Stardust**
Hm?
**[17:50] Stardust**
I cut it off.
**[17:51] Shy**
Cut it off? You mean the ring?
**[17:54] Stardust**
No.
**[17:58] Stardust**
The whole finger.
**[18:00] Stardust**
You seem to still have your fingers,
**[18:03] Stardust**
so you're quite lucky, Koishikawa-san.
**[18:07] Spirit**
Hey, stop that! You're clearly scaring them.
**[18:13] Stardust**
I can understand the civilian being
scared, but that little hero there, too?
**[18:17] Stardust**
No wonder I was summoned.
**[18:20] Spirit**
What are you talking about?
**[18:22] Stardust**
Unilord, let's get down to business.
**[18:26] Stardust**
What do you want from me?
**[18:30] Unilord**
You are one of the few humans who can act
**[18:33] Unilord**
without mercy for your own sake,
as well as the world's.
**[18:37] Unilord**
That's why I want to ask you this.
**[18:40] Unilord**
I'd like you to fight Shy.
**[18:43] Spirit**
Wha—
**[18:44] Spirit**
Unilord! What are you talking about?!
**[18:47] Unilord**
Currently, if Stigma were to
appear in front of her again,
**[18:51] Unilord**
she would be unlikely to survive.
**[18:53] Spirit**
I-In that case, Teru-chan and I will—
**[18:55] Stardust**
There's no point.
**[18:57] Stardust**
You wouldn't be able to fight her seriously.
**[19:00] Stardust**
You've grown too attached.
**[19:03] Stardust**
I don't know if she reminds you of someone
else, but you won't be strong enough.
**[19:10] Spirit**
Stardust, you—
**[19:11] Shy**
Pepesha-san!
**[19:13] Shy**
I-I'll give it a try.
**[19:15] Spirit**
Teru-chan...
**[19:17] Shy**
I've been thinking about this for a while.
**[19:19] Shy**
The way I am now, am I really a hero?
**[19:23] Shy**
I always knew I lacked strength.
**[19:26] Shy**
So... I want to become stronger!
**[19:29] Shy**
So that I'll be able to save everyone!
**[19:34] Iko**
Momijiyama-san...
**[19:35] Stardust**
Well, that was certainly cool.
**[19:38] Stardust**
You almost sound like a hero. In that case...
**[19:41] Stardust**
Are you ready to quit
being a hero if you lose?
**[19:47] Spirit**
Wha—
**[19:48] Spirit**
Don't be ridiculous! That's just—
**[19:50] Shy**
All right.
**[19:52] Shy**
I-I'll try to win! I'll do my best!
**[19:59] Iko**
It's...
***SIGN*** Multipurpose Room
Section 3 in Space HQ
**[20:01] Iko and Shy**
It's so big!
**[20:03] Spirit**
Teru-chan, are you sure you'll be okay?
**[20:06] Shy**
I-I'll be fine.
**[20:07] Shy**
I'm a hero, too.
**[20:09] Spirit**
Teru-chan...
**[20:10] Stardust**
Shy! Come over here.
**[20:17] Shy**
*I know what I said, but... I'm scared!*
**[20:22] Stardust**
Let's go over the rules.
**[20:25] Stardust**
These rings we use... They're
connected directly to our hearts.
**[20:30] Stardust**
If you keep your heart strong, they'll
give you the strength you ask for...
**[20:34] Stardust**
But if you feel like you can't fight anymore,
your transformation will instantly be undone.
**[20:38] Stardust**
Meaning, the one whose transformation
becomes undone loses.
**[20:42] Stardust**
But that puts you at a great disadvantage.
**[20:45] Stardust**
So...
**[20:46] Stardust**
If you're able to hit me in the face even
once, we'll count it as your victory.
**[20:52] Shy**
And you're sure about this?
**[20:55] Iko**
Wh-Why are heroes going to fight
like this? What's the point?
**[21:01] Unilord**
Shy has little to no battle experience.
**[21:05] Unilord**
Stardust, on the other hand, is extremely
experienced with using his heart.
**[21:09] Unilord**
If she is unable to to fight against enemies
far more powerful than her here,
**[21:14] Unilord**
she will be faced with more hardships ahead.
**[21:22] Shy**
*I'm shaking so bad.*
**[21:24] Shy**
*This is my first time fighting a hero, too.*
**[21:27] Spirit**
Unilord.
**[21:28] Spirit**
If I think things are getting too dangerous, I—
**[21:30] Stardust**
No!
**[21:32] Stardust**
No matter what happens, do not
interfere until this fight is over.
**[21:37] Stardust**
If you take even one step this way, she loses.
**[21:40] Stardust**
She'll have to quit being a hero.
**[21:43] Stardust**
Shy, once this coin hits
the floor, the fight begins.
**[21:48] Stardust**
Got it?
**[21:49] Shy**
Yes.
**[21:54] Iko**
Momijiyama-san!
Don't push yourself too hard!
**[22:03] Shy**
Here I go!

Yes.

***SIGN*** Episode 4
A Heartless Person
**[02:18] Iko**
Huh? Wh-What just happened?
**[02:22] Stardust**
What's the matter? No need to hold back.
**[02:30] Stardust**
You clearly don't know how to punch someone.
**[02:33] Shy**
*H-He's evading my attacks...*
**[02:36] Shy**
*Or rather...*
**[02:38] Shy**
Why, you—
**[02:38] Shy**
*I can't reach him!*
**[02:43] Stardust**
You see, this...
**[02:47] Stardust**
is how you punch someone.
**[02:54] Stardust**
People often say I'm a heartless person.
**[02:59] Stardust**
In other words, I lack empathy.
**[03:02] Stardust**
I have absolutely no problem trampling
on someone else's feelings.
**[03:06] Stardust**
Because I can't empathize with other people's
pain, I have no reservations doing so.
**[03:12] Stardust**
I get it. You have a lot of empathy.
**[03:16] Stardust**
You care about others, pity them,
and do things for their sake.
**[03:21] Stardust**
That's a wonderful thing.
**[03:24] Stardust**
But that's why you're weak,
and why you can't defeat anyone.
**[03:28] Stardust**
Because your heart is rejecting
it—rejecting victory.
**[03:37] Iko**
Wh-Why aren't her attacks hitting
him? Stardust isn't even moving.
**[03:42] Unilord**
The Heart-shift bracelets...
**[03:44] Unilord**
don't just possess the power to Heart-shift,
but will answer the wearer's heart
**[03:48] Unilord**
and grant them special powers.
**[03:52] Unilord**
Stardust's heart cannot be swayed by anyone.
**[03:56] Unilord**
And his unwavering heart
controls the flow around him.
**[04:00] Unilord**
The air, power, and heat around him...
**[04:04] Unilord**
They are all under his control.
**[04:08] Stardust**
Yes. That's...
**[04:10] Stardust**
my power.
**[04:15] Stardust**
You'd better bust your ass to
find your power, or else...
**[04:19] Stardust**
you won't survive.
**[04:24] Stardust**
Get angry. Loathe me.
Think about wanting to kill me.
**[04:30] Stardust**
Wish for me to die.
**[04:34] Stardust**
Or else...
**[04:37] Stardust**
I will kill you.
**[04:41] Spirit**
Teru-chan!
**[04:42] Stardust**
Stay back!
**[04:44] Stardust**
If you enter, she loses.
**[04:47] Spirit**
You're going way too far with this!
**[04:50] Stardust**
Too far? How so?
**[04:53] Spirit**
You're such a...
**[04:56] Stardust**
I'm used to being glared at.
**[04:59] Stardust**
It does nothing to me.
**[05:04] Stardust**
Well? Are you done now?
**[05:07] Stardust**
You're weak, and you've
got Spirit all worked up.
**[05:11] Shy**
No... I'm not...
**[05:15] Stardust**
That so?
**[05:23] Spirit**
Unilord! Please stop him! This is pointless!
**[05:27] Unilord**
I cannot.
**[05:29] Spirit**
Why?!
**[05:31] Unilord**
Her...
**[05:33] Unilord**
Shy's Heart-shift has not come undone.
**[05:37] Unilord**
Which means...
**[05:39] Unilord**
she hasn't given up yet.
**[05:42] Iko**
Momijiyama-san!
That's enough! Let's go home!
**[05:46] Iko**
You don't have to go through
all this just to be a hero!
**[05:49] Iko**
I know just how hard you worked!
**[05:54] Shy**
K-Koishikawa-san...
**[06:01] Stardust**
What do you think you're doing?
**[06:04] Shy**
I-I didn't understand at first...
**[06:11] (Flashback) Shy**
I-I'll try to win! I'll do my best!
**[06:14] Shy**
I-I'm so weak, a scaredy-cat,
a crybaby, a complete failure...
**[06:21] Shy**
So I have no idea why I said I'd win...
**[06:25] Stardust**
Why does something feel off?
**[06:28] Shy**
I just remembered...
Whenever I started whining...
**[06:35] Shy**
I'd hear a voice.
**[06:38] Shy**
A voice that calls my name...
**[06:39] Iko**
Momijiyama-san!
**[06:41] Shy**
That's what lit the flames
of courage within me.
**[06:42] Iko**
Momijiyama-san!
**[06:49] Iko**
Flames...
**[06:52] Shy**
Thank goodness.
**[06:54] Shy**
If I can still stand, I can still do this.
**[06:58] Unilord**
It's gradually awakening...
**[07:03] Unilord**
The power of Shy's Heart-shift bracelets.
**[07:07] Stardust**
Flames, eh?
**[07:09] Stardust**
I guess I just got a glimpse of your powers.
**[07:13] Stardust**
But on its own, that means nothing.
**[07:17] Shy**
Right.
**[07:18] Shy**
* He's right... I need to*
* be able to use my powers.*
**[07:25] Spirit**
She's fast!
**[07:26] Stardust**
* How hot the flames are*
* reflects her life force itself.*
**[07:30] Stardust**
*It's quite simple, but...*
**[07:34] Stardust**
* She's able to draw out her strength*
* in a straightforward way.*
**[07:40] Stardust**
So that's your power?
**[07:42] Stardust**
It doesn't suit you.
**[07:45] Stardust**
You're too weak for it.
**[07:47] Shy**
I-I mean, yes, I seem weak, but...
**[07:50] Shy**
I-I definitely just saw it!
**[07:53] Shy**
You dodged my flames just now.
**[07:57] Shy**
Which means...
**[07:59] Shy**
My flames can hit you!
**[08:04] Shy**
Huh?
**[08:06] Stardust**
Are you stupid?
**[08:08] Stardust**
It's that naïveté that will ensure you lose.
**[08:11] Stardust**
The naïveté of not being
able to kill your opponent.
**[08:19] Stardust**
And sooner or later,
**[08:20] Stardust**
you will be killed by someone
who's heartless, like me.
**[08:28] Stardust**
I guess we're done.
**[08:30] Stardust**
You're probably lucky that you
get to quit being a hero here.
**[08:37] Shy**
You're a liar...
**[08:40] Shy**
Truly.
**[08:43] Iko**
Momijiyama-san...
**[08:44] Shy**
Saying you don't have a heart...
**[08:48] Shy**
You knew how weak my
heart was from the start.
**[08:54] Shy**
That's why you didn't hold back.
**[08:57] Shy**
So that I could attack you
with everything I had.
**[09:01] Shy**
So that I could hate you.
**[09:05] Shy**
If that kindness isn't an indication
of your heart... then what is?
**[09:13] Stardust**
* I see... I get it now.*
* Why something felt off...*
**[09:18] Shy**
And that's why I need to respond...
**[09:22] Shy**
to your kindness.
**[09:24] Stardust**
*This girl's eyes...*
**[09:27] Stardust**
* don't have the slightest*
* gleam of hatred in them.*
**[09:31] Stardust**
* Normally, when something*
* precious to you is hurt,*
**[09:36] Stardust**
* you can at least see a glimmer*
* of hatred in someone's eyes.*
**[09:40] Stardust**
*Not that that's ever bugged me.*
**[09:44] Stardust**
*And yet, this girl...*
**[09:47] Shy**
Here I come!
**[09:48] Stardust**
* She said that I'm kind?*
* What kind of rubbish—*
**[09:53] Stardust**
*Am I actually mad about this?*
**[09:59] (Flashback) Voice**
You're heartless.
**[09:59] (Flashback) Voice**
How cruel.
**[10:01] (Flashback) Voice**
You devil spawn.
**[10:02] (Flashback) Voice**
Hypocrite.
**[10:03] (Flashback) Voice**
You piece of shit!
**[10:06] Unilord**
He's wavering.
**[10:08] Unilord**
Stardust's heart, which has never
been moved by anyone, is wavering.
**[10:11] Stardust**
* So what if I am?!*
* Call me whatever you want!*
**[10:17] (Flashback) Friend**
Davie.
**[10:19] (Flashback) Friend**
What happened to your face, Davie?
**[10:24] (Flashback) Young Davie**
I got jumped by a bunch
of jerks again, that's all.
**[10:27] (Flashback) Young Davie**
They wouldn't shut up about me
not having a heart or whatever.
**[10:30] (Flashback) Friend**
Again?
**[10:32] (Flashback) Young Davie**
I didn't really feel anything when I hit
them, so I guess they were right.
**[10:39] (Flashback) Friend**
So you actually hit back?
**[10:41] (Flashback) Young Davie**
Yeah, and that's when they got me.
**[10:44] (Flashback) Friend**
Why'd you hit them back?
**[10:47] (Flashback) Young Davie**
Why? I mean...
**[10:49] (Flashback) Friend**
It irritated you, didn't it?
Getting told you don't have a heart.
**[10:53] (Flashback) Friend**
If you felt irritated, that just
means you *do* have a heart!
**[10:57] (Flashback) Young Davie**
That seems like a far-fetched argument.
**[11:00] (Flashback) Friend**
If you got annoyed by them
saying you don't have a heart,
**[11:02] (Flashback) Friend**
that just means you want to
become a person with a heart.
**[11:10] (Flashback) Young Davie**
I don't even understand
what it means to have a heart.
**[11:14] (Flashback) Friend**
Well, I'm pretty sure no one
else in the world does, either.
**[11:22] (Flashback) Friend**
I know, Davie. You should strive to
be the nicest person in the world!
**[11:28] (Flashback) Friend**
That'll throw those bozos and
the rest of the world for a loop!
**[11:31] (Flashback) Friend**
You'd prove how worthless all the
labels people throw around are.
**[11:34] (Flashback) Friend**
Then everyone would get it!
That sounds great.
**[11:41] (Flashback) Young Davie**
You're a bit messed up in the head, too.
**[11:43] (Flashback) Friend**
I am not! I just like entertaining things.
**[11:53] Stardust**
* Why did I recall something*
* from so long ago right now?*
**[12:00] Shy**
* My body feels heavy...*
* I'm losing consciousness.*
**[12:03] Shy**
*But so what?!*
**[12:05] Shy**
* I have to make sure my*
* heart gets through to him!*
**[12:09] Shy**
*Because...*
**[12:11] Friend**
*The nicest person in the world!*
**[12:14] Shy**
*Even I'm...*
**[12:16] Shy**
*a hero!*
**[12:25] Spirit**
Teru-chan!
**[12:26] Iko**
Momijiyama-san!
**[12:30] Spirit**
You let this happen to yourself just to...
**[12:34] Stardust**
Spirit.
**[12:36] Stardust**
She isn't cut out to be a hero after all.
**[12:39] Stardust**
She's too pure and naïve.
**[12:41] Stardust**
She can't fight at her fullest even when
she's faced with a loathsome enemy.
**[12:45] Stardust**
She's always controlled by her emotions.
**[12:48] Stardust**
That's why her power is so unstable.
**[12:50] Stardust**
In the end, she overused a power she's
not accustomed to and burned out.
**[12:57] Stardust**
She's clearly too reckless.
**[13:00] Stardust**
But maybe...
**[13:03] Stardust**
the ones who'll change this world
in the future will be fools like her.
**[13:09] Spirit**
Stardust?
**[13:11] Stardust**
I lost.
**[13:13] Stardust**
That last blow managed to hit my cheek
before her Heart-shift came undone.
**[13:20] Stardust**
Tell her congratulations.
**[13:23] Stardust**
I've already contacted a doctor.
**[13:25] Stardust**
Have them check her as soon as possible.
**[13:36] Stardust**
A kind person, huh?
**[13:42] Stardust**
Shy.

**[13:56] Spirit**
Well, thanks, Stardust.
**[14:00] Stardust**
Your expression doesn't match your words.
**[14:03] Spirit**
Oh, shut up. Don't make me knock you out.
**[14:06] Stardust**
Are you sure you should be here?
**[14:09] Spirit**
Iko-chan's here. I'd just get in their way.
**[14:13] Spirit**
Regardless of how it was done,
Teru-chan is now prepared to fight.
**[14:18] Spirit**
And that's thanks to you.
**[14:21] Spirit**
So... thanks.
**[14:24] Stardust**
You're welcome, I guess.
**[14:25] Spirit**
But!
**[14:26] Spirit**
I still hate your damn guts!
**[14:30] Spirit**
Ugh, you're so unbelievable!
Who goes that far against a girl?!
**[14:36] Stardust**
Honestly, I'm quite fond of the way
you wear your heart on your sleeve.
**[14:41] Spirit**
What?! That's it! I'm kicking your ass!
**[14:45] Stardust**
Well, I'm heading home.
**[14:47] Spirit**
You're running away! Hold it right there!
**[14:57] Teru**
Huh? Where am I?
**[15:00] Lady**
You're in the infirmary on the spacecraft.
**[15:03] Lady**
So you're finally awake now?
**[15:06] Lady**
You slept for two hours
after you were treated.
**[15:09] Lady**
How dumb. You know, your friend
wore herself out crying and fell asleep.
**[15:15] Teru**
Wh-Who are you?
**[15:19] Lady**
What?! You're a newbie and you don't
know who I am?! Are you stupid?!
**[15:24] Teru**
Stupid?!
**[15:25] Teru**
Wait, um... I need my glasses...
**[15:28] Lady**
Wait! I know! I just need
to do the thing, right?!
**[15:33] Lady**
Even in the deepest darkness where the light
doesn't reach, Black will be by your side.
**[15:38] Lady**
The light that shines upon the hearts of this
world is a black star that shines on this Earth.
**[15:43] Lady**
I'm the Black Cross Nurse: Lady Black!

Wow...
**[15:57] Lady**
Don't "Wow..." me! Are you stupid?!
Do you not know who I am?!
**[16:01] Schwartz**
Now, now. Be quiet in the
patient's room. Get along, now.
**[16:06] Lady**
Don't be stupid, Doctor! I can't
get along with this stupid girl!
**[16:09] Teru**
*She just keeps calling me stupid...*
**[16:12] Schwartz**
Sorry about that. Lady has quite the bark,
but she's actually a very good girl deep down.
***SIGN*** Doctor Schwartz

**[16:17] Lady**
I do not bark!
**[16:19] Schwartz**
Don't mind her.
**[16:21] Teru**
Oh... Thank you.
**[16:23] Teru**
U-Um, I beg your pardon, but...
who are you two?
**[16:27] Schwartz**
We're Black Cross heroes.
**[16:30] Teru**
Black Cross?
**[16:32] Schwartz**
It's an international rescue
organization created by Stardust.
**[16:36] Schwartz**
I'm their representative and
chief medical officer, Doctor Schwartz.
**[16:41] Lady**
And I came here as one of the nurses.
**[16:44] Lady**
By the way, I'm also
the one who treated you.
**[16:48] Lady**
You haven't realized that you don't have
a single scratch on your body, have you?
**[16:52] Teru**
Huh? Wait! You're right!
**[16:55] Lady**
My power is "Healing." Basically, I have
the heart that can heal the masses.
**[17:00] Teru**
Healing...
**[17:02] Lady**
I guess Stardust acknowledged
you because of your flames,
**[17:05] Lady**
but when you're doing your job as a hero,
your power should come naturally to you.
**[17:10] Lady**
Frankly speaking, you lack talent.
**[17:16] Lady**
Did you hear me?
**[17:18] Lady**
I said he acknowledged you!
**[17:22] Teru**
Huh? Acknowledged?
**[17:24] Lady**
Stardust left a message for you.
**[17:26] Lady**
He said, "Congratulations."
**[17:28] Teru**
That means... I can stay a hero.
**[17:34] Teru**
But... I wasn't able to do anything.
**[17:38] Teru**
Is this... really okay?
**[17:42] Lady**
Just so you know, I don't acknowledge
you as Japan's hero at all!
**[17:48] Lady**
You turned into a shut-in over an accident.

reassure people just by being there!
**[18:00] Lady**
So what did you do?
**[18:03] Lady**
You made a civilian feel nervous and cry.
**[18:05] Lady**
Then you get knocked out and
take her down with you?!
**[18:08] Lady**
Can you really call yourself a hero?
**[18:10] Lady**
Way to go.
**[18:12] Lady**
I don't know if you're Shy or whatever, but
I'm going to give you a piece of my mind.
**[18:17] Lady**
If you're ashamed of yourself,
quit being a hero right this instant!
**[18:24] Lady**
Enough of this, Doctor.
**[18:25] Lady**
We've done our work. Let's go home.
**[18:27] Schwartz**
Yes, you're right. Let's go.
**[18:31] Schwartz**
Lady can be a bit harsh, but
that's how she expresses herself.
**[18:36] Schwartz**
She's basically saying to become
someone you can be proud of.
**[18:40] Schwartz**
See you again, young lady.
Give our regards to your friend.
**[18:48] Teru**
A hero...
**[18:54] Iko**
Momijiyama-san...
**[18:56] Teru**
You're awake.
**[18:58] Teru**
I'm sorry for dragging you
into this, Koishikawa-san.
**[19:04] Iko**
You worked so hard, Momijiyama-san!
**[19:07] Teru**
U-Um...
**[19:22] Iko**
Well, I have to go this way.
I'll see you later, Momijiyama-san.
**[19:29] Teru**
Wait, Koishikawa-san!
**[19:32] Teru**
Um, I...
**[19:34] Teru**
I'm sorry. I made you worry a lot.
**[19:38] Teru**
When I thought about how my
weakness made everyone anxious,
**[19:43] Teru**
I just felt so pathetic.
**[19:45] Teru**
I'm still not really heroic at all...
**[19:49] Teru**
But...
**[19:51] Teru**
I'm going to become
strong, no matter what!
**[19:54] Teru**
So that you'll never have to cry again!
**[19:57] Teru**
So... huh?
**[19:59] Teru**
Sorry... Why am I...
**[20:02] Teru**
I just said I was gonna be stronger... so why...
**[20:05] Iko**
Are you okay? Here, use this.
**[20:09] Teru**
I'm so sorry... I'm so sorry.
**[20:13] Iko**
You know, Momijiyama-san,
you can be pretty passionate.
**[20:18] Iko**
Maybe that's why your heart's
power is hot flames.
**[20:23] Teru**
But... I'm just...
**[20:25] Iko**
Oh, I just thought of something.
**[20:29] Iko**
You know, because you're so shy...
**[20:32] Iko**
Your face is so red, it might
just burst into flames.
**[20:36] Teru**
Huh?
**[20:41] Iko**
Wouldn't that be funny?
**[20:42] Teru**
Is that where this is going?

My lower back's killing me lately.
**[03:04] Teru**
A-Are you running this shop

**[03:08] Chihiro**
I sure am, ever since my husband passed.
**[03:13] Chihiro**
Oh, you hadn't heard?
**[03:15] Chihiro**
He passed from an illness
around three years ago.
**[03:17] Chihiro**
Ow...
**[03:19] Chihiro**
It sure is lonely running
this shop on my own.
**[03:23] Chihiro**
He started this shop as a hobby,
and now, it's all I've got left.
**[03:29] Chihiro**
But there ain't too may people nowadays

**[03:49] Teru**
Ah, no...
**[03:55] Teru**
For some reason...
**[03:58] Teru**
Mt. Tanpopo just looked so nice today.
**[04:03] Teru**
And then I remembered there was a
really nice painting of it in this shop.
**[04:08] Chihiro**
Ah, my husband painted that.
**[04:12] Chihiro**
He always did love mountains.
**[04:15] Chihiro**

Oh, s-sure!
**[05:56] Piltz**
Any pain?
**[05:57] Teru**
N-No, I'm fine.
**[05:59] Piltz**
Okay. Anything feel off?
**[06:01] Teru**
Not really.
**[06:04] Piltz**
Way to go, me. A perfect recovery.
**[06:07] Piltz**
The power of healing is so beautiful.
**[06:09] Teru**

**[06:12] Teru**
Piltz-san! I have a favor to ask!
**[06:14] Piltz**
Huh? What?!
**[06:15] Teru**
Well, you see...
**[06:17] Teru**
Well, maybe not a favor...
It's more like a request...
**[06:21] Piltz**
What?!
**[06:22] Piltz**
I'm going home now! Are you stupid?!
**[06:25] Piltz**
Why would I listen to your request?!
**[06:28] Piltz**
Just how stupid are you?!
**[06:31] Piltz**
Hello!
***SIGN*** Nagata Stationary
**[06:33] Piltz**
I'm an acquaintance of Teru-san, and I'm
a nursing student. My name is Piltz.
**[06:37] Chihiro**
My, my, my. What brings you here?
**[06:40] Piltz**
Teru-san told me all about you.
**[06:42] Piltz**
I was hoping I could help out in some way.
**[06:44] Chihiro**
Oh, is that so?
**[06:46] Chihiro**
Well, you're too kind. There ain't
much room, but come on in.
**[06:50] Piltz**
Thank you very much.
**[06:51] Teru**
Piltz-san, thank you so much!
**[06:54] Piltz**
I'm not doing this for you. Stop
thanking me over and over already.
**[06:58] Piltz**
It's not really good to use your
hero powers for personal matters,
**[07:03] Piltz**
but I'm not strong enough
to be able to ignore her.
**[07:14] Chihiro**
I feel a bit bad having a young'un
like you do this for me.
**[07:19] Piltz**
Oh, please, don't worry.
I love taking care of others.
**[07:23] Chihiro**
Say, Piltz-chan.
**[07:25] Piltz**
Yes?
**[07:26] Chihiro**
If the pain does go away, should
I still not climb the mountain?
**[07:31] Piltz**
Mountain?
**[07:33] Chihiro**
It's a memorable place for
my late husband and me.
**[07:36] Chihiro**
I was hoping I'd be able
to climb it again someday.
**[07:39] Chihiro**
Is that impossible?
**[07:41] Piltz**
Mountain climbing sounds great!
**[07:43] Piltz**
Lack of exercise is the
worst thing for your health.
**[07:46] Piltz**
But I'm sure you'd feel anxious going
by yourself, so we'll go with you.

Huh?

Truly.
**[08:01] Teru**
Uh...
**[08:04] Piltz**
Hey, what's with that stupid look on your face?
**[08:07] Teru**
Er, I'm not great at outdoorsy activities.
**[08:10] Teru**
I think it's pretty obvious, but I'm an
indoor person, or in other words, a shut-in.
**[08:14] Piltz**
Whatever. Anyway, let's get going.
**[08:18] Chihiro**
Teru-chan, no need to push yourself.
**[08:20] Teru**
Okay... I'll do my best.
**[08:34] Chihiro**
Truly, though, it's like magic.
**[08:37] Chihiro**
My back doesn't hurt at all anymore.
**[08:40] Piltz**
Don't get too overconfident now.
**[08:42] Teru**
P-Piltz-san...
**[08:48] Teru**
Do you go... hiking often?
**[08:52] Teru**
You seem used to this...
**[08:56] Piltz**
Well, I used to go hiking every day.
**[09:00] Teru**
W-Wow... Then I guess you
must love mountains...
**[09:04] Piltz**
I hate them.
**[09:06] Piltz**
I hate mountains and hiking.
**[09:09] Piltz**
There were some people who laughed
at me and said I couldn't do it,
**[09:12] Piltz**
so I just wanted to prove them wrong.
**[09:15] Teru**
Wh-Why would they laugh at you?
**[09:22] Piltz**
Are you bad at physical activity?
**[09:24] Teru**
Uh, yes. Of course.
**[09:27] Piltz**
Do you like hiking?
**[09:29] Teru**
No...
**[09:30] Piltz**
Do you think you can make it to the summit?
**[09:32] Teru**
No, um... I honestly don't.
**[09:35] Teru**
Huh?
**[09:38] Piltz**
Let's go, Nagata-san!
**[09:41] Piltz**
I'll tell you the answer if
I see you up on the summit!
**[09:48] Teru**
Huh?
**[09:57] Teru**
P-Piltz-san... I-I'm here...
**[10:00] Teru**
So... About what you said earlier...
**[10:03] Piltz**
Shh.
**[10:13] Piltz**
We'll continue this someplace
where we won't interrupt Nagata-san.
**[10:16] Teru**
O-Okay...
**[10:23] Piltz**
You took way too long.
**[10:25] Piltz**
What were you even doing?
**[10:27] Teru**
Th-Thank you...
**[10:33] Teru**
I-I thought I was going to die...
**[10:35] Piltz**
You're not going to die!
**[10:36] Piltz**
This mountain isn't even that big.
**[10:39] Teru**
S-So, um... The thing
you mentioned earlier...
**[10:46] Piltz**
You really want to know?
**[10:47] Piltz**
It's not exactly a fun story.
**[10:50] Teru**
But it's just so weird...
**[10:58] Teru**
Huh?
**[11:00] Piltz**
I lost both of my legs in
an accident a while ago.
**[11:03] Teru**
B-But you made it up here
without any issue...
**[11:06] Piltz**
That's right. I went hiking
every day so I could.
**[11:10] Piltz**
No matter the country or place,
**[11:12] Piltz**
there are always idiots who laugh at the
challenges of those who seem weaker than them.
**[11:19] Piltz**
The place where I grew up
was surrounded by mountains.
**[11:23] Piltz**
It felt as though the world
was trying to trap me inside.
**[11:28] Piltz**
It pissed me off because it felt
like my limits were decided for me.
**[11:33] Piltz**
That's why I jumped out with my own two legs.
**[11:37] Piltz**
There's no mountain that I can't conquer.
**[11:40] Piltz**
Even you were able to climb this mountain.
**[11:43] Piltz**
You can probably have a
little more confidence.
**[11:45] Piltz**
Honestly... I'm a little impressed.
**[11:48] Teru**
Piltz-san...
**[11:50] Piltz**
I said "a little"! You need to train more!
**[11:54] Piltz**
You dummy! You weakling!
**[11:57] Chihiro**
Hey, you two.
**[12:00] Chihiro**
Ready to start heading down?
**[12:02] Piltz**
Oh, sure!
**[12:09] Chihiro**
It truly is a lovely day.
**[12:11] Piltz**
It is!
**[12:13] Piltz**
Hey, what are you doing?
We're gonna leave you behind!
**[12:16] Teru**
Um... okay!
***SIGN*** Nagata Stationary
**[12:26] Chihiro**
Thank you so much for today.
**[12:29] Chihiro**
Come by the shop every once in a while.
**[12:31] Teru**
Yes, I'll come visit soon.
**[12:34] Chihiro**
Good, good. Well, see ya later.
**[12:38] Teru**
Um...
**[12:40] Teru**
Thank you very much.
**[12:42] Piltz**
I didn't do anything.
**[12:45] Teru**
No, really.
**[12:45] Teru**
It's very clear that you're able to help
and heal others even without your powers.
**[12:53] Piltz**
Why did you have to go and
state the obvious like that?
**[12:57] Piltz**
I-I mean...
**[12:59] Piltz**
I guess I wouldn't mind helping
you become a proper hero.
**[13:05] Teru**
Huh?
**[13:06] Piltz**
I'm worried about Nagata-san's progress, too,
**[13:08] Piltz**
so I might just be back after a while!
**[13:11] Piltz**
Well, bye!
**[13:15] Teru**
*I wonder if I'll...*
**[13:17] Teru**
*be able to conquer a mountain, too.*

You'll be late for school, Teru.

D-Don't watch my secret training!
**[13:55] Teru**
* Piltz-san was able to use her healing*

**[14:01] Teru**
* I wonder how I can use my*

**[14:05] Iko**
Morning, Momijiyama-san!
**[14:08] Iko**
Momijiyama-san?
**[14:10] Teru**
O-Oh, Koishikawa-san, good morning...
**[14:13] Teru**
O-Oh, and...
**[14:15] Teru**
Your uniform...
**[14:17] Iko**
Oh, this? They finally sent
me this school's uniform.
**[14:22] Teru**
It looks great on you! So cute!
**[14:26] Iko**
Anyway, is something wrong?
**[14:28] Iko**
Something on your mind?
**[14:29] Iko**
I'll help out any way I can.
**[14:31] Teru**
Er, no...
**[14:32] Teru**
*This is hard to bring up to Koishikawa-san*
**[14:35] Teru**
* after I embarrassingly said I'd*
* get stronger the other day...*
**[14:39] Inuyama**
Morning, Koishikawa-san.
**[14:40] Iko**
Morning!
**[14:42] Nekogawa**
Morning, Momijiyama-san.
**[14:43] Teru**
M-Morning...
**[14:45] Inukawa**
Koishikawa-san, you look great
in our school's uniform.
**[14:48] Nekogawa**
Is your leg okay now?
**[14:49] Iko**
Oh, yeah. It's okay right now.
**[14:54] Teru**
* Anyway, I need to hurry and*
* learn how to use my powers.*
**[15:00] Teru**
*Fire...*
***SIGN*** Science Room
***SIGN*** Beware

**[15:03] Teru**
*Fire...*
**[15:06] Teru**
*Fire!*
**[15:07] Teru**
*Fire...*
**[15:08] Teru**
*Fire...*
**[15:09] Teru**
*Fire?*
**[15:11] Teru**
*Fire...*
**[15:17] Teru**
* I couldn't concentrate on*
* my classes at all today.*
**[15:21] Iko**
You're not heading home, Momijiyama-san?
**[15:23] Teru**
Oh, uh...
**[15:25] Teru**
I-I thought I'd stay after school a bit.
**[15:27] Iko**
Oh, okay... Well, see you tomorrow, then.
**[15:34] Teru**
* I can't afford to make*
* Koishikawa-san worry right now.*
**[15:37] Teru**
*I need to get this down on my own.*
**[15:42] Teru**
*Fire... Flames...*
**[15:45] Teru**
*Burning...*
***SIGN*** Flame
**[15:55] Teru**
* This character that means*
* "flame" seems warm somehow...*
**[15:59] Teru**
*Wait, are flames hotter than fire?*
**[16:03] Teru**
* Um... What's the difference*
* between fire and flames, anyway?*
**[16:06] Teru**
* Are they just different in size? Actually,*
* maybe it doesn't even matter...*
**[16:10] Noppo**
You need something?
**[16:18] Teru**
Um, no, I... was just thinking this
"flame" was written very nicely!
**[16:25] Noppo**
This is one that I wrote.
**[16:28] Noppo**
Do you want to check out
the calligraphy club?
**[16:30] Teru**
Er, no, I...
**[16:32] Noppo**
Stare...
**[16:34] Teru**
Uh, okay...
***SIGN*** The type

say no
**[16:37] Noppo**
President.
**[16:38] Teru**
*I don't have time for this...*
**[16:41] Noppo**
Wait one sec.
**[17:00] President**
There.
**[17:04] President**
Who's that?
**[17:06] Noppo**
She wanted to observe.
**[17:07] President**
Huh?! Observe?! But why our club?!
**[17:10] Noppo**
She said she liked my calligraphy.
**[17:13] Teru**
Y-Yes...
**[17:14] Noppo**
So she's not a bad person.
**[17:16] President**
Well, everyone's welcome
here, so enjoy yourself.
**[17:22] Teru**
Okay...
***SIGN*** The type
of girl
who
can't turn
back
***SIGN*** Natural
**[17:32] Teru**
* Her posture's so nice when*
* she's about to write.*
**[17:35] President**
So why did you like the "flame" calligraphy?
**[17:38] Teru**
U-Um...
**[17:40] President**
You don't seem like someone
well-versed in this.
**[17:43] Teru**
Er, I honestly have no idea why...
***SIGN*** Champion | Flame | Life
**[17:46] Teru**
but that character just caught
my eye when I was walking by.
**[17:50] Teru**
Somehow, it felt like it had
actual heat coming from it...
***SIGN*** Flame
***SIGN*** Suzuri
Murasaki
**[17:54] President**
Huh... That's an interesting
way of putting it.
**[17:57] Teru**
I-Is it weird?
**[18:00] President**
No, I think that's actually pretty common.
**[18:04] President**
She might not seem very motivated,
**[18:07] President**
but her calligraphy is
very delicate yet bold.
**[18:10] President**
It's very passionate.
**[18:11] President**
What you're feeling inside shows
in the characters you write.
**[18:16] Noppo**
You guys are too noisy.
**[18:17] President**
Uh... You're the one who invited her in.
**[18:20] Noppo**
You two keep yammering on about
stuff that doesn't matter.
***SIGN*** Passion
**[18:26] Noppo**
What do you think?
**[18:28] President**
It's good. Maybe concentrate
on balance more next time.
**[18:30] Noppo**
'Kay.
**[18:31] President**
What do you think?
**[18:33] Teru**
Huh?!
**[18:34] Teru**
I don't know all this stuff in detail,
but your writing seems warm,
**[18:40] Teru**
so I really like it a lot.
**[18:42] Noppo**
'Kay. Thanks.
**[18:45] President**
You're so happy.
**[18:47] Noppo**
Shut up.
**[18:51] President**
Wanna give it a try?
Since you're here and all.
**[18:54] Teru**
Huh? Uh, I...
**[18:57] Noppo**
You should try everything.
**[19:02] Teru**
*I'm so...*
***SIGN*** Natural
***SIGN*** Crimson
***SIGN*** Teru
**[19:14] Teru**
I-I think this turned out pretty well.
***SIGN*** The type of
girl that ends
up enjoying
anything in the end
**[19:19] President**
Yeah, there's passion in your calligraphy, too.
**[19:22] Noppo**
Yeah.
**[19:23] Teru**
Y-You think so?
**[19:25] President**
This is my pet theory,
**[19:26] President**
but I think calligraphy cherishes your
heart more than any other art form.
**[19:31] Teru**
Your... heart?
**[19:33] President**
Yeah.
**[19:36] President**
You only have one brush,
**[19:38] President**
and there are no redos in this world,
**[19:40] President**
so you focus all you have
into this one moment.
**[19:43] President**
The thing you want to express from
your heart passes through your arm,
**[19:47] President**
and then, through the brush,
**[19:49] President**
it becomes a character on the paper.
**[19:52] President**
The character born of these
momentary flicks of the wrist
**[19:56] President**
can be called the heart itself.
***SIGN*** Heart
**[20:03] Teru**
That's it!
**[20:06] Teru**
That's right. If I want
my heart to come out...
**[20:09] Teru**
If I go with this image,
I might just be able to...
**[20:11] Teru**
Um, I'm going home now!
**[20:13] President**
Huh?!
**[20:14] Teru**
Thank you for everything today, you two.
**[20:16] President**
Uh, sure.
**[20:20] President**
What got into her?
**[20:22] Noppo**
Oh.
**[20:23] President**
Huh? What?
***SIGN*** Teru
**[20:24] Noppo**
I forgot to ask her what her name was.
**[20:27] President**
Actually, we didn't introduce
ourselves, either...
**[20:39] Shirmpy**
Teru... What are you doing?
**[20:42] Teru**
I'm going to... write out my heart.
**[20:46] Teru**
*That's right... I can't be reckless.*
**[20:49] Teru**
* I need to concentrate on*
* writing this character.*
**[20:52] Teru**
* Like I'm creating an image*
* and writing my heart out.*
**[20:56] Teru**
*How do I feel right now?*
**[20:59] Teru**
*Am I panicked?*
**[21:01] Teru**
*Scared?*
**[21:07] Teru**
*I need to imagine it over and over...*
**[21:11] Teru**
*No matter how I'm feeling...*
**[21:16] Teru**
*I just need to write it out.*
***SIGN*** Fire

*I'm glad I gave it my all.*
**[21:35] Shrimpy**
Teru. Teru!
**[21:37] Shrimpy**
It's actually on fire!
**[21:39] Teru**
Huh?!

Oh, no! Shrimpy-san! Water! Water!

**[00:02] Teru**
* Every story's hero has*
* someone they have to fight.*
**[00:10] Teru**
*Even in this age where there is no more war...*
**[00:14] Teru**
*and in our reality.*
**[00:18] (Flashback) Unilord**
Though the world is free of war,
**[00:20] (Flashback) Unilord**
there is a dark place existing in everyone's
hearts that they do not want seen.
**[00:27] (Flashback) Unilord**
Everyone everywhere.
**[00:32] (Flashback) Unilord**
Those who do not seek the light
want to take advantage of this.
**[00:36] (Flashback) Unilord**
Shy...
**[00:38] (Flashback) Unilord**
You must understand this.
**[00:40] (Flashback) Unilord**
The duty of a hero is to become
a beacon of hope for the people,
**[00:46] (Flashback) Unilord**
and to protect the soul of this world.
**[00:52] Teru**
* Right now, the one striking*
* fear into our world*
**[00:55] Teru**
*has the power to sneak into people's hearts,*
**[00:57] Teru**
* uses a ring to make the darkness*
* of their emotions lose control,*
**[01:01] Teru**
*and turns them into monsters.*
**[01:05] Teru**
* Even at my school, Iko*
* Koishikawa-san was a target.*
**[01:09] (Flashback) Stigma**
This world is full of countless hearts,
**[01:13] (Flashback) Stigma**
but so many of them are
stuffed into tiny cages.
**[01:19] (Flashback) Stigma**
I'll destroy them all...
**[01:21] (Flashback) Stigma**
All of the cages that keep you hidden.
**[01:24] (Flashback) Stigma**
I mean, just look.
**[01:28] (Flashback) Stigma**
True hearts are just so...
**[01:32] (Flashback) Stigma**
beautiful just as they are.
**[01:36] Teru**
*Stigma...*
**[01:38] Teru**
*Just what could his motive be?*
**[01:42] Teru**
*And will I be able to fight him...*
**[01:46] Teru**
*as a hero who can save people?*
**[01:54] Stigma**
Heroes have killed many hearts.
**[01:58] Stigma**
They judge their qualities, lock them away...
**[02:06] Stigma**
The hearts that have nowhere to go anymore
**[02:09] Stigma**
are yearning for the end of this world.
**[02:13] Stigma**
Don't worry. We don't need
to actually end this world.
**[02:18] Stigma**
We just need to end the heroes.
**[02:33] Stigma**
Now...
**[02:35] Stigma**
Let's return the world to
how it once was, together.
***SIGN*** Episode 6
Ice White
**[04:17] Iko**
Wow, so now you're able to
use the power of your heart?
**[04:21] Teru**
Yes. Though not perfectly yet.
**[04:25] Teru**
Piltz-san also gave me some encouragement...
**[04:27] Teru**
And I can't keep worrying Pepesha-san.
**[04:31] Teru**
I need to work even harder
so I can use it properly.
**[04:36] Iko**
Piltz-san and Pepesha-san, huh?
**[04:41] Teru**
Koishikawa-san?
**[04:42] Iko**
Huh? Oh, er, it's nothing.
**[04:47] Shrimpy**
*Teru.*
**[04:48] Teru**
Shrimpy-san?
**[04:50] Shrimpy**
*We've been summoned by Unilord.*
**[04:53] Shrimpy**
* She wants us to come to*
* the spaceship immediately.*
**[04:55] Teru**
Understood.
**[04:57] Teru**
Koishikawa-san, I'm sorry.
**[04:59] Iko**
It's okay. You must have hero work.
**[05:01] Iko**
I'll be right here cheering
for you, Momijiyama-san.
**[05:13] Iko**
You've got this, Momijiyama-san.
**[05:21] Unilord**
We've received an emergency request to
mobilize from an international organization.
**[05:26] Unilord**
We do not have further details.
**[05:30] Unilord**
I need you two to immediately head to
the location and investigate the situation.
**[05:35] Spirit**
Oho...
**[05:36] Shy**
Just the two of us?
**[05:39] Unilord**
No. You will be meeting with another
hero who has already headed there.
**[05:44] Shy**
* There's another one?*
* I-I hope it's someone I know.*
**[05:49] Unilord**
The place you will be traveling
to is the North Pole.
**[05:52] Shy**
Huh?!
**[05:53] Shy**
The North Pole?! But why...
**[05:56] Unilord**
There are research groups from many
countries stationed at the North Pole.
**[06:01] Unilord**
We can speculate that an incident
happened involving them,
**[06:04] Unilord**
but there are no countries in the North Pole.
**[06:08] Spirit**
And that's why you need
help from us heroes.
**[06:11] Spirit**
Did I guess that right?
**[06:14] Unilord**
Spirit... and Shy.
**[06:17] Unilord**
Your mission is to resolve this
problem as quickly as possible.
**[06:22] Unilord**
If you cannot...
**[06:25] Unilord**
You get no snacks.
**[06:30] Unilord**
I'm joking. You may have your
snacks. Please laugh now...
**[06:46] Shy**
I-It's so cold... This is... the N-North Pole?
**[06:51] Spirit**
Let's get all the details from the base.
**[06:53] Spirit**
You're cold, Teru-chan? You okay?
***SIGN*** Arctic Base
**[06:56] Shy**
Wait, are you *not* cold?
**[07:01] Old member**
Hey, you there!
**[07:03] Old member**
If you sleep here, you're gonna die!
**[07:07] Old member**
Hey!
**[07:08] Mianlong**
It's cold... I'm tired...
**[07:11] Mianlong**
It's cold... I'm tired...
**[07:16] Spirit**
Oh, dear...
**[07:18] Spirit**
Fell asleep in a place like this?
**[07:21] Old member**
Ah, Spirit. Yes. Do something about this!
**[07:26] Mianlong**
Spirit?
**[07:29] Spirit**
Hello? Time to wake up.
**[07:38] Mianlong**
Good morning, you two.
**[07:40] Mianlong**
This is the first time
I'm meeting you, Shy-san.
**[07:42] Mianlong**
I'm China's hero, Mianlong.
***SIGN*** Mianlong
China's Hero
Real name: Mingming Li
**[07:48] Sign**
It's a pleasure to meet you.
**[07:50] Shy**
Yes, likewise.
**[07:52] Mianlong**
I'm sorry you had to witness
that embarrassing sight.
**[07:57] Spirit**
So I guess the hero that got
here earlier was you, Mianlong.
**[08:01] Spirit**
You know, I haven't had
any Shaoxing wine lately.
**[08:04] Spirit**
Maybe I'll stop by China on my way back.
**[08:09] Old Member**
Could I talk about the mission first?
**[08:11] Spirit**
Oh?
**[08:14] Old member**
The emergency signal came from
200 kilometers northeast of here.
**[08:19] Old member**
It appears as though the research
vessel *Dimitri* hit a large ice floe,
**[08:24] Old Member**
but we haven't been able
to contact them since.
**[08:27] Old member**
This may be a race against time.
**[08:29] Old Member**
Please accompany us on this rescue.
**[08:31] Spirit**
Roger!
**[08:33] Shy**
* Pepesha-san's usually drunk, but it seems*
* like she's on her game when it really matters.*
**[08:38] Shy**
*I need to work harder as a hero, too.*
**[08:43] Young member**
The rescue helicopter is ready to take off.
**[08:45] Shy; Mianlong; Spirit**
Ready!
**[08:59] Mianlong**
*Stare...*
**[09:03] Shy**
Um, uh...
**[09:06] Shy**
*I need to find something to talk about...*
**[09:07] Shy**
*Since we're at the North Pole...*
**[09:10] Mianlong**
Hey!
**[09:12] Mianlong**
I wanted to talk to you two today.
**[09:15] Shy**
Huh?
**[09:16] Mianlong**
You're both just so amazing...
**[09:18] Mianlong**
So I was hoping you'd listen to my concerns.
**[09:21] Mianlong**
That's also why I came on this mission...
**[09:25] Shy**

**[09:30] Spirit**
What are you being all serious for?
**[09:32] Spirit**
Did you not get enough sleep?
**[09:35] Mianlong**
I mean, I didn't, but...
**[09:38] Mianlong**
You see, the other day...
**[09:41] Mianlong**
Stigma appeared in my country, too.
**[09:44] Mianlong**
The situation was dealt with, but...

*That one news story...*
**[09:50] Mianlong**
Shy-san, I heard you were able
to get by without fighting Stigma.
**[09:57] Mianlong**
The truth is... I'm not good at fighting.
**[10:01] Mianlong**
I'm told all the time that
heroes need to fight,
**[10:05] Mianlong**
but I'd rather just save people
without fighting bad guys.
**[10:10] Mianlong**
Is it cowardly to think that way?
**[10:13] Mianlong**
Is that not manly?
**[10:16] Shy**
Um...
**[10:17] Shy**
I do think that at times, too.
**[10:20] Shy**
But it doesn't matter if that's manly or not.
**[10:24] Shy**
I mean...
**[10:25] Shy**
you're a girl, anyway!

Huh? What?!

Teru-chan.
**[10:34] Shy**
Pepesha-san! Huh?! Um...
**[10:37] Spirit**
It's very rude of you to
assume someone's gender.
**[10:42] Shy**
Assume?
**[10:45] Shy**
I-I'm so sorry! You just have
such a cute face that I...
**[10:49] Spirit**
Teru-chan, now you're just
rubbing salt in the wound.

Come in, *Dimitri*. Come in, *Dimitri*.
**[11:11] Pilot B**
We're not getting an answer.
**[11:12] Old member**
Is it because they can't answer or
they just didn't get the message?
**[11:16] Pilot A**
Wait... Something's wrong.
**[11:19] Pilot A**
The sea ice is in strange shapes...
**[11:22] Shy**
Wow! That's amazing!
**[11:24] Shy**
I never knew the North
Pole had ice like that!
**[11:27] Pilot A**
Er, no, we've never seen it like tha—

Teru-chan! Mianlong!

Get everyone aboard to safety!
**[11:42] Shy**
Wh-What...
**[11:44] Shy**
What just happened?
**[11:49] Tzveta**
Ah, it's cold... It's so cold.
**[11:55] Tzveta**
Such a warm-looking heart...
**[11:58] Spirit**
Who are you?!
**[12:00] Tzveta**
I wonder... If I destroy it...
**[12:03] Tzveta**
Will I become warm, too?
**[12:08] Spirit**
Huh?
**[12:22] Tzveta**
Oh, dear.
**[12:27] Spirit**
Caught you!
**[12:29] Spirit**
Are you one of Stigma's victims?
**[12:31] Spirit**
Don't worry. I'll—huh?
**[12:37] Spirit**
Hey!
**[12:38] Tzveta**
Victim?
**[12:40] Tzveta**
You're not supposed to assume what's
in people's hearts and hold them down
**[12:44] Tzveta**
to the point you kill them completely.
**[12:46] Spirit**
What?
**[12:47] Tzveta**
Weren't you ever taught that as a child?
**[12:54] Shy**
P-Pepesha-san?!
**[12:57] Spirit**
Aw, she got my hat.
**[12:59] Shy**
Th-Thank goodness you're safe.
**[13:02] Spirit**
Teru-chan, she may be a wee
bit difficult to deal with.
**[13:05] Spirit**
She doesn't have a ring on.

Isn't this Stigma's doing?
**[13:31] Spirit**
That's what I thought, too...
**[13:33] Spirit**
But it looks like this will be much
more troublesome than we thought.
**[13:37] Spirit**
Mianlong, take care of

**[13:40] Mianlong**

**[13:42] Spirit**

**[14:13] Shy**
She fell into the ocean!
**[14:22] Tzveta**
It's so cold...
**[14:24] Tzveta**
I want to use you to warm up.
**[14:27] Tzveta**
Hey...
**[14:29] Tzveta**
That's okay, right?
**[14:35] Spirit**
Sorry, but you're going
to have to settle down.
**[14:39] Tzveta**
Now I'm dizzy.
**[14:41] Tzveta**
And that hurt.
**[14:43] Spirit**
So, who are you?
**[14:46] Spirit**
What are you doing here?
**[14:52] Tzveta**
I'm Tzveta.
**[14:54] Tzveta**
I was just told to stay here. That's all.
**[14:57] Tzveta**
I was told heroes would come here...
**[15:01] Tzveta**
And that if I destroyed the
heroes, I could warm up.
**[15:05] Spirit**
Huh... I see. So this was all a trap?
**[15:10] Spirit**
Teru-chan, contact Unilord immediately!
**[15:13] Shy**
R-Right!
**[15:14] Spirit**
Huh? Uh, hey, wait!
**[15:16] Shy**
U-Um, I beg your pardon,
but may I borrow your radio?
**[15:20] Old member**
Er, well, the helicopter blew up
along with everything in it.
**[15:22] Shy**
O-Oh, right!
**[15:24] Shy**
H-How do I get a hold of Unilord-san?
**[15:28] Mianlong**
You should be able to contact her with
your Heart-shift bracelets, right?
**[15:32] Mianlong**
Yup.
**[15:33] Shy**
O-Oh, that's right!
**[15:36] Tzveta**
That girl...
**[15:38] Tzveta**
She's been panicking this whole time.
**[15:41] Tzveta**
Her face is all red...
**[15:47] Tzveta**
She's just like you...
**[15:49] Tzveta**
Pesha.
**[15:50] Spirit**
Huh?
**[16:06] Shy**
Pepesha-san!
**[16:08] Tzveta**
Now, then...
**[16:17] Tzveta**
How warm...
**[16:19] Tzveta**
I like it.
**[16:22] Tzveta**
I really like you.
**[16:28] Tzveta**
Warm me up even more.
**[16:36] Mianlong**
Are you all right, Shy-san?!
**[16:38] Shy**
S-Sorry!
**[16:40] Tzveta**
You're in the way.
**[16:42] Shy**
Wh-Where's Pepesha-san?
**[16:44] Mianlong**
I'm not sure.
**[16:46] Mianlong**
But right now, we need to stop her!
**[16:54] Shy**
*That pattern on her cheek...*
**[16:56] Shy**
*That wasn't there earlier.*
**[16:58] Shy**
*Ever since that appeared on her cheek,*
**[17:01] Shy**
*she somehow feels even creepier...*
**[17:04] Tzveta**
I've decided. I'll kill you first.
**[17:14] Tzveta**
Oh, dear.
**[17:19] Tzveta**
I guess I shouldn't go near you.
**[17:24] Tzveta**
I'm tired now.
**[17:27] Tzveta**
Because of you.
**[17:38] Tzveta**
Now, all that's left is...
**[17:50] Shy**
Mianlong-san! Please go!

It's no use.

**[02:42] Shy**
Pepesha-san, are you okay?
**[02:44] Pepesha**
Teru-chan!
**[02:45] Pepesha**
I'm fine! This is nothing.
**[02:48] Pepesha**
I just had a little hole in my stomach.
**[02:52] Shy and Mian Long**
*"Little"?*
**[02:53] Lady Black**
A puncture wound, hypothermia,
and a decent amount of bleeding.
**[02:56] Lady Black**
You're not fine at all!
**[02:59] Lady Black**
The bigger problem is that
**[03:00] Lady Black**
their attacks can actually damage
us even in our Heart-shift forms.
**[03:04] Lady Black**
What the heck is their deal?
**[03:08] Pepesha**
That girl... She called me "Pesha."
**[03:14] Pepesha**
Only those who are
closest to me call me Pesha.
**[03:19] Mianlong**
Does that mean...
**[03:21] Shy**
You mean she knows you, Pepesha-san?
**[03:23] Pepesha**
It's likely.
**[03:25] Pepesha**
But... I don't know who she is.
**[03:30] Pepesha**
I wonder why...
**[03:34] Pepesha**
I have a really bad feeling about this.
**[03:37] Pepesha**
It's like an old wound
that started to hurt again...
**[03:40] Pepesha**
Some kind of loathing.
**[03:45] Shy**
P-Pepesha-san! You should rest!
**[03:48] Pepesha**
No, I'm fine.
**[03:50] Pepesha**
More importantly...
**[03:51] Pepesha**
They...
**[03:53] Pepesha**
Amarariruku...
**[03:54] Pepesha**
As far as I could tell,
they were all children.
**[03:58] Shy**
Now that you mention it...
**[03:59] Unilord**
Children...
**[04:01] Pepesha**
With names like Amarariruku and Weepy...
**[04:06] Pepesha**
They're all very childish names.
**[04:11] Pepesha**
I wonder if maybe Stigma is
just playing in this world...
**[04:15] Pepesha**
like a child.
**[04:23] Unilord**
It's far too early to determine that.
**[04:26] Unilord**
If we miscalculate their motives, it will
put us at an even bigger disadvantage.
**[04:31] Pepesha**
Yes... You're exactly right.
**[04:34] Pepesha**
But Stigma is elusive.
**[04:37] Pepesha**
What exactly can we do?
**[04:40] Unilord**
It seems that it's necessary for us to
learn more about just who Stigma is.
**[04:46] Unilord**
Bring her here.
**[04:47] Shy**
"Her"?
**[04:48] Mianlong**
Um... Is someone coming?
**[04:50] Unilord**
She is our new hope.
**[04:56] Shy**
Shrimpy-san?
**[04:58] Iko**
Is this it?
**[04:59] Shy**
Ko... Koishikawa-san!
**[05:01] Shy**
What are you doing here?
**[05:04] Iko**
Momijiyama-san! Thank goodness!
**[05:06] Iko**
I heard you had an awful time!
**[05:08] Iko**
Are you okay?
**[05:09] Shy**
I, um... yes.
**[05:12] Pepesha**
Unilord... By "hope," you don't mean...
**[05:15] Unilord**
I called her here myself.
**[05:17] Shy**
You did?
**[05:19] Unilord**
Yes.
**[05:20] Unilord**
With this super-cheap smartphone.
**[05:23] Unilord**
At this moment, she is the only
thing Stigma won't predict.
**[05:26] Unilord**
She is an unknown factor
to both ourselves and Stigma.
**[05:36] Unilord**
There is something that
I must report to all of you.
**[05:40] Unilord**
It's regarding the ring.
**[05:43] Shy**
The ring... The one that put
Koishikawa-san through hell?
**[05:47] Unilord**
Yes. Our analysis of that
ring has progressed,
**[05:51] Unilord**
and we've discovered a number of things.
**[05:54] Shrimpy**
The reason she was invited here
**[05:55] Shrimpy**
was because we had to explain
something regarding the ring.
**[05:59] Unilord**
This ring is a frightful thing that is
actually Stigma's heart materialized.
**[06:05] Shy**
His heart?
**[06:11] Unilord**
Within everyone's heart is
their own unique wavelength.
**[06:16] Unilord**
Their own way of being.
**[06:20] Unilord**
That ring takes the wearer's heart
and connects it to Stigma's heart.
**[06:26] Unilord**
It then changes that heart's way of
being. Truly, a terrifying thing.
**[06:32] Shy**
Then... The reason Koishikawa-san
turned into that thing...
**[06:36] Mianlong**
And the incident that
happened in my country...
**[06:38] Unilord**
Yes. So it can be said that he is spreading
parts of his heart all over the world.
**[06:46] Iko**
There's actually something
I remember after hearing this.
**[06:50] Iko**
That day, when Momijiyama-san saved me...
**[06:54] Iko**
My memories of fighting
her aren't very clear...
**[06:59] Iko**
But I have clear memories of something else.
**[07:06] Iko**
At the same time that my
own darkness came out,
**[07:09] Iko**
my consciousness sank deep into my heart.
**[07:15] Iko**
A huge chasm...
**[07:17] Iko**
No, I guess I should call it a wound.
**[07:20] Iko**
I think it was a wound within a heart.
**[07:24] Iko**
Thinking back on it now, I think what was
deep within that wound was Stigma's heart.
**[07:33] Pepesha**
Does that mean you personally
saw Stigma's heart, Iko-chan?
**[07:37] Lady Black**
I'm pretty sure every
other one of Stigma's victims
**[07:40] Lady Black**
didn't have any recollection
of what happened.
**[07:43] Unilord**
And that's why we were unable to notice
**[07:45] Unilord**
the possibility that the ring connected
the wearer's heart with Stigma's heart.
**[07:51] Lady Black**
Seriously, what is Stigma's deal?
**[07:54] Lady Black**
Is he trying to turn strangers into... himself?
**[07:56] Iko**
Back then...
**[07:58] Iko**
When I saw Stigma's heart...
**[08:00] Iko**
The way he saw the world
and what he desired...
**[08:04] Iko**
A part of that vision flowed into me.
**[08:09] Shy**
Huh?
**[08:09] Pepesha**
Tell us, Iko-chan.
**[08:11] Pepesha**
I want to know whatever I can about his goal.
**[08:15] Iko**
The heart I saw... was very abstract.
**[08:20] Iko**
I'm pretty sure that was Earth...
**[08:23] Iko**
People's shadows were hand in hand,
and they created a ring.
**[08:28] Iko**
I think that's Stigma's ideal.
**[08:30] Iko**
People hand in hand and
becoming one upon this planet.
**[08:34] Shy**
Becoming one?
**[08:37] Lady Black**
N-Now, hang on a sec!
That almost sounds like...
**[08:40] Iko**
Yes.
**[08:42] Iko**
I can't say I agree with this, but...
**[08:48] Iko**
World peace. I believe that's his goal.
**[08:53] Lady Black**
What?!
**[08:55] Lady Black**
He wants world peace after
causing that whole mess?!
**[08:57] Lady Black**
Bring that guy here this instant!
**[08:58] Shrimpy**
Now, now...

This wouldn't be so troublesome
if we could do that.
**[09:03] Iko**
A-And one other thing...
**[09:05] Iko**
The inside of Stigma's heart...
**[09:12] Iko**
seemed extremely childlike.
**[09:15] Iko**
Very young, almost like
he was refusing to grow up.
**[09:21] Pepesha**
A child...
**[09:22] Lady Black**
So basically,
**[09:24] Lady Black**
he's a little brat who thinks his
actions will lead to world peace.
**[09:29] Iko**
P-Pretty much.
**[09:31] Iko**
That's about all I got from Stigma's heart.
**[09:34] Iko**
Is that helpful at all?
**[09:36] Unilord**
Of course it is, Iko-san.
**[09:38] Unilord**
Being able to see even a fragment of
Stigma's vision will help us read his next move.
**[09:45] Iko**
Thank goodness.
**[09:46] Shy**
Um, thank you very much.
**[09:49] Shy**
That must have been so hard for you.
**[09:51] Iko**
No, it's fine.
**[09:53] Iko**
I'm the one who said I wanted
to tell all of you this, anyway.
**[09:58] Shy**
Huh?
**[10:00] Iko**
I've been thinking this whole time...
**[10:02] Iko**
How can I be of some help to you?
**[10:06] Iko**
But I'm just a regular person.
**[10:09] Iko**
Even if I wanted to fight with you,
I'd just be in the way.
**[10:15] Iko**
So was I at least a little useful?
**[10:17] Shy**
I mean... You don't have to ask that.
**[10:21] Pepesha**
Unilord, there's one other
thing that's come to my mind.
**[10:25] Pepesha**
The girl named Tzveta that we
ran into at the North Pole...
**[10:31] Pepesha**
I have a feeling she looks a lot
like I did when I was a child.
**[10:36] Unilord**
What do you mean?
**[10:38] Pepesha**
I'm not sure, but...
**[10:40] Pepesha**
The déjà vu and loathing I felt from her...
**[10:44] Pepesha**
It felt a lot like me.
**[10:48] Shy**
Pepesha-san?!
**[10:49] Mianlong**
Pepesha-san?!
**[10:52] Lady Black**
Are you okay?
**[10:53] Lady Black**
A wound that deep isn't going
to fully heal right away.
**[10:57] Lady Black**
You should go home for
today and get some rest.
**[10:59] Pepesha**
Yeah... I think I will.
**[11:04] Pepesha**
Once I recover, I'll do some
investigating back home...
**[11:07] Pepesha**
on myself.
**[11:08] Unilord**
All right. But for now, please
concentrate on your recovery.
**[11:13] Mianlong**
Will you be all right by yourself?
**[11:15] Pepesha**
I'm fine. Thanks.
**[11:28] Shy**
Pepesha-san!
**[11:30] Pepesha**
Teru-chan?
**[11:31] Pepesha**
What's the matter? Where's Iko-chan?
**[11:34] Shy**
Koishikawa-san went home already.
**[11:37] Shy**
But I wanted to talk to you, Pepesha-san.
**[11:40] Pepesha**
About what?
**[11:41] Shy**
Um...
**[11:44] Shy**
It just seemed like you were depressed.
**[11:49] Pepesha**
That's not true at all.
**[11:51] Pepesha**
See? Perfectly fine!
**[11:54] Pepesha**
No?
**[11:56] Pepesha**
Well... honestly, I don't really get it myself.
**[12:02] Pepesha**
Even if the girl we met at the
North Pole is someone I know,
**[12:07] Pepesha**
she's being used by someone else,
**[12:09] Pepesha**
and I wasn't able to do anything about it.
**[12:13] Pepesha**
I think... that was a bit shocking to me.
**[12:16] Shy**
But... that's not true.
**[12:19] Shy**
This isn't your fault!
**[12:24] Shy**
Huh?
**[12:26] Shy**
Huh?!
**[12:27] Shy**
Wh-Wh-What?!
**[12:31] Pepesha**
Why are you looking so glum, Teru-chan?
**[12:35] Pepesha**
Oh, I guess that's my fault. Sorry about that.
**[12:39] Pepesha**
Man, I could really use a drink right now.
**[12:42] Pepesha**
But I guess I'll have to hold
off for a while until I recover.
**[12:45] Shy**
P-Please don't tease me like that!
**[12:47] Shy**
I just want to help you out, Pepesha-san...
**[12:51] Shy**
I...
**[12:55] Pepesha**
Thank you for worrying about me.
**[12:57] Pepesha**
But Teru-chan, I'm gonna let you
in on something very important.
**[13:01] Pepesha**
When you want to cheer someone up,
**[13:03] Pepesha**
you need to smile to tell
them everything will be okay.
**[13:07] Pepesha**
Well, see you later!
**[13:11] Shy**
Pepesha-san!
**[13:14] Shy**
You said before...
**[13:17] Shy**
"Carry with you all the brilliance you
weren't able to save, and move forward."
**[13:23] Shy**
Right now, I have the courage to carry that.
**[13:27] Shy**
It'll be okay.
**[13:28] Shy**
If we carry this together,
we'll be able to save that girl!
**[13:33] Pepesha**
Teru-chan...
**[13:35] Pepesha**
There you go, using what you just
learned in real time. You're so cute.
**[13:40] Shy**
Y-Yes! That's right! I-I can do
things when they really matter!
**[13:47] Pepesha**
But yeah...
**[13:48] Pepesha**
I guess I need to be able to actually
do the things I told you to do.
**[13:53] Pepesha**
In that case...
**[13:55] Pepesha**
Will you carry this with me,
**[13:58] Pepesha**
Shy?
**[14:03] Shy**
Of course, Spirit!
**[14:09] Unilord**
Looks like they'll be okay.
**[14:11] Lady Black**
Well, she's not that weak.
**[14:15] Lady Black**
Neither of them are.

H-Hey there...
**[19:40] Boy**
Wh-What do you want?!
**[19:43] Shy**
I was just wondering what you meant back
there when you said I wasn't a hero...
**[19:48] Boy**
What did I mean? Isn't it obvious?!
**[19:52] Boy**
The only hero for me is the
one and only Revozeale!
**[19:57] Shy**
Hm?
**[19:58] Boy**
And because you're pretending to be Zeale,
**[20:01] Boy**
that means you're a fake hero!
**[20:03] Shy**
S-So you're...
**[20:06] Boy**
Wh-What? Are you also gonna tell me it's
weird that I like *Civirevo* because I'm a boy?

Besides, when it comes to
something you like or love,

it doesn't matter if you're a boy or girl.

"When it comes to something you like or love,
it doesn't matter if you're a boy or girl!"

Huh?

Y-You're real! You're the real Revozeale!
**[21:05] Shy**
Huh?

P-Pepesha-san, are you always drinking?
**[03:05] Pepesha**
Oh, come on, Teru-chan! You're making
it sound like I'm sick or something.
**[03:09] Pepesha**
I knew I was seeing you today,
so I made sure I was drunk!
**[03:13] Teru**
Because you were seeing me?
**[03:17] Pepesha**
Teru-chan, if you saw me sober,
**[03:21] Pepesha**
you probably wouldn't recognize me.
**[03:24] Teru**
Huh?!
**[03:28] Teru**
Um, where are we going?
**[03:31] Pepesha**
We're heading to the place where I grew up.
**[03:34] Pepesha**
They'll have old photo albums there,
and I thought that might be helpful for research.
**[03:41] Teru**
What were you like as a child, Pepesha-san?
**[03:45] Pepesha**
Well... I wasn't a very cheerful child.
**[03:50] Teru**
Huh... That's kind of surprising.
**[03:53] Pepesha**
Really? Actually, that's fair!

It's been ten years since Pesha left,
**[06:04] Isaak**
but she still seems pretty
concerned about us.
**[06:08] Isaak**
She always sends us money once a month.
**[06:12] Isaak**
Thanks to that, we're still
able to run our orphanage.
**[06:18] Isaak**
Though she's never told me
what kind of work she does...
**[06:22] Isaak**
She's a hero to all of the kids here.
**[06:29] Teru**
Right.
**[06:34] Isaak**
Here are the albums from
when you were still here.
**[06:36] Pepesha**
Thank you very much!
**[06:38] Isaak**
But what do you need them for?
**[06:42] Pepesha**
I'm investigating something
that happened back then.
**[06:45] Pepesha**
I was wondering what kind of child I was.
**[06:49] Isaak**
Well, make yourselves at home.
**[06:51] Isaak**
More importantly, Pesha...
**[06:54] Isaak**
It seems you like alcohol, too,
**[06:58] Isaak**
but don't overdo it.
**[07:02] Pepesha**
Yes, sir.
**[07:09] Pepesha**
Hmm... I wonder if we'll find anything.
**[07:14] Teru**
Um...
**[07:16] Teru**
I know it's late to say this, but...
**[07:18] Teru**
I had no idea you grew up in an orphanage.
**[07:22] Pepesha**
Yup. I was taken into this
orphanage when I was twelve,
**[07:28] Pepesha**
and I stayed here for five
years until I was seventeen.
**[07:33] Pepesha**
Nice place, right?
**[07:35] Pepesha**
Everyone here is so warm and kind.
**[07:38] Pepesha**
And because of that, I was
really lonely when I left.
**[07:43] Pepesha**
But, I mean, I come back every now and then,
**[07:46] Pepesha**
so I haven't completely left the nest.
**[07:49] Pepesha**
Oh, look, Teru-chan!
**[07:51] Pepesha**
It's me.
**[07:52] Teru**
Where?
**[07:54] Pepesha**
Right here.
**[07:57] Pepesha**
Oh, my gosh! I'm so grumpy!
My personality must've sucked!
**[08:03] Teru**
I-I'm sure that's not true.
**[08:05] Teru**
You look very cute.
**[08:08] Pepesha**
Do I?
**[08:09] Pepesha**
But look. I'm just so grumpy.
**[08:15] Teru**
Oh, you're smiling in this picture.
**[08:19] Pepesha**
What even is that face?
**[08:20] Pepesha**
Why couldn't I smile better?
**[08:23] Teru**
But... you do sort of look like
that Tzveta girl, if only vaguely.
**[08:29] Pepesha**
Do I? I guess this isn't enough to tell.
**[08:33] Pepesha**
Let's find more pictures.
**[08:35] Teru**
Oh, something just fell out.
**[08:38] Pepesha**
Huh, I wonder what it is.
**[08:43] Teru**
What's that?
**[08:45] Pepesha**
This is...
**[08:47] Pepesha**
a picture of my mama.
**[08:50] Teru**
A picture of your mother?
**[08:53] Pepesha**
Yes. I guess it was between the pages.
**[08:57] Pepesha**
This takes me back.
**[09:01] Pepesha**
That's right...
**[09:04] Pepesha**
I think, when I first got here...
**[09:07] Pepesha**
I carried this picture around
with me everywhere.
**[09:12] Pepesha**
I felt all alone.
**[09:16] Teru**
You must've really loved your mother.
**[09:20] Pepesha**
Yes, and I admired her, too.
**[09:24] Pepesha**
She raised me all by herself.
**[09:27] Pepesha**
Mama also was raised in this orphanage,
**[09:30] Pepesha**
and that's how I was able to get in.
**[09:34] Pepesha**
She never really said much.
**[09:36] Pepesha**
But there were occasionally nights
when she was really talkative.
**[09:42] Pepesha**
Do you know why?
**[09:43] Teru**
Why? I...
**[09:47] Pepesha**
Yup!
**[09:48] Pepesha**
Because she was wasted.
**[09:52] Pepesha**
My mama was always stoic and cool,
**[09:55] Pepesha**
but when she drank, she was like
a really talkative and cute friend.
**[10:01] Pepesha**
And that's why, back then, I thought...
**[10:05] Pepesha**
that alcohol was a magic medicine that
allowed adults to return to being children.
**[10:14] Pepesha**
And that's exactly why kids
aren't allowed to drink it!
**[10:16] Pepesha**
Because then you'd turn into a baby
and eventually just disappear!
**[10:21] Teru**
I see. In that case...
**[10:23] Teru**
I guess you must've taken after
your mother, Pepesha-san.
**[10:29] Pepesha**
Huh? Have I?
**[10:31] Teru**
I mean... judging from everything
you've told me so far...
**[10:34] Teru**
Y-You know... Like the fact
that you both like alcohol,
**[10:37] Teru**
how you're both cute when you're drunk...
**[10:41] Pepesha**
Oh, come on. Everyone
around here is like that.
**[10:45] Teru**
Um...
**[10:47] Pepesha**
Yes?
**[10:50] Isaak**
Did you find what you were looking for?
**[10:53] Pepesha**
Sir.
**[10:54] Isaak**
It's already past noon.
**[10:57] Isaak**
Why don't you have some lunch?
**[11:03] Pepesha**
Ah, that was so tasty.
**[11:05] Teru**
Thank you for the meal.
**[11:07] Pepesha**
Sir, do you happen to have any beer?
**[11:11] Isaak**
Pesha... You need to know when to stop.
**[11:14] Pepesha**
Aw...
**[11:16] Natalia**
Hey, you there. Is this
what you're looking for?
**[11:20] Pepesha**
Hm? This voice that makes
the earth tremble...
**[11:23] Pepesha**
Natalia-san!
**[11:26] Pepesha**
It's been so long!
**[11:27] Pepesha**
Wait, did you gain weight again?
**[11:29] Natalia**
Really? If you're gonna say stuff
like that, you don't get any.
**[11:32] Pepesha**
Oh, no! I'm kidding! You're the
most beautiful and the best!
**[11:36] Pepesha**
Oh, Teru-chan. This is Natalia-san.
**[11:40] Pepesha**
She's been staff here since I was here.
**[11:42] Natalia**
Are you the girlie who came from Japan?
**[11:45] Teru**
I-I'm Teru Momijiyama.
**[11:48] Natalia**
Well, there sure isn't a lot around
here, but make yourself at home.
**[11:51] Teru**
Th-Thank you...
**[11:55] Natalia**
Now then, Pesha...
**[11:57] Pepesha**
Right then, Natalia.
**[11:59] Natalia and Pepesha**
Yeah!
**[12:03] Teru**
W-Wow...
**[12:07] Natalia**
So, what? You two came to
take a trip down memory lane?
**[12:12] Pepesha**
Yes.
**[12:14] Pepesha**
When I was going through the albums,
I remembered a lot from my time here.
**[12:19] Pepesha**
It felt really nostalgic.
**[12:22] Natalia**
You were pretty awful
when you first came here.
**[12:25] Natalia**
You wouldn't say a damn word.
**[12:27] Pepesha**
Really?
**[12:30] Natalia**
But you're starting to look
more and more like Lenya.
**[12:34] Natalia**
She only smiled when she was drinking, though.
**[12:39] Teru**
Lenya?
**[12:41] Pepesha**
Letana Andreanova.
**[12:45] Pepesha**
That's my mama's name.
**[12:47] Natalia**
When I was living here as an orphan,
**[12:51] Natalia**
her mother, Lenya, was also here.
**[12:55] Teru**
You're also from here, Natalia-san?
**[12:58] Natalia**
I sure am.
**[12:59] Natalia**
Well, I guess in my case, I came right back.
**[13:05] Natalia**
People told me they couldn't trust someone
who had no parents to do any work.
**[13:12] Natalia**
On top of that, I didn't
have any schooling, either.
**[13:16] Natalia**
Which is why I came right back here.
**[13:20] Natalia**
People talk about how the wars are
over now, stuff about heroes...
**[13:24] Natalia**
Everyone talks about how the
world's supposedly changed...
**[13:27] Natalia**
But the little corners of the world haven't
changed. It's still a struggle to survive.
**[13:32] Natalia**
Oh, I'm sorry. That was probably pretty boring.
**[13:36] Teru**
Oh, no! Not at all.
**[13:38] Natalia**
Oh, right. You're looking for
old memories, aren't you?
**[13:42] Natalia**
Why don't you have a look at my albums, too?
**[13:45] Isaak**
Good point. I'm pretty sure
Lenya would be in those.
**[13:51] Pepesha**
I'd love to see when all of you were kids!
**[13:55] Pepesha**
Bring them out already!
**[13:57] Isaak**
Oh, all right, then.
**[14:01] Isaak**
Here you go.
**[14:03] Natalia**
Well, let's have a look...
**[14:06] Natalia**
Oh, look! I'm right here.
**[14:09] Natalia**
This takes me back!
**[14:10] Pepesha**
Which one are you, Natalia-san?
**[14:13] Natalia**
I'm right here.
**[14:24] Pepesha**
No way!
**[14:25] Natalia**
What do you mean by that?!
**[14:27] Pepesha**
B-But your face is totally different!
**[14:30] Pepesha**
Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow...
**[14:30] Natalia**
What's that supposed to mean, huh, Pesha?!
**[14:33] Pepesha**
I mean... Y-You were really pretty!
**[14:35] Natalia**
Go on. Say that again.
**[14:37] Pepesha**
Ow, ow, ow! Natalia-san, please stop!
**[14:38] Natalia**
What? Had enough?
**[14:41] Teru**
*They must be very close.*
**[14:43] Teru**
* But Natalia-san looked like a*
* princess when she was younger.*
**[14:47] Teru**
*The girl next to her is pretty, too...*
**[14:56] Tzveta**
So nostalgic...
**[15:00] Pepesha**
Come on, now. You're messing up my hair.
**[15:02] Teru**
Natalia-san...
**[15:03] Teru**
Is the girl standing next to you...
**[15:07] Natalia**
Oh, that's right. That's Lenya.
**[15:11] Child C**
Sorry, could you get that?
**[15:13] Child B**
Yeah!
**[15:19] Tzveta**
Can I play with you, too?
**[15:23] Natalia**
Which means...
**[15:24] Natalia**
That's Pepesha's mother.
**[15:27] Teru**
Pepesha-san, look...
**[15:31] Pepesha**
Why...
**[15:32] Pepesha**
Why does Mama as a child...
**[15:36] Pepesha**
have the same face as that girl?
**[15:44] Shy**
Shy.

She'd also be too young to be her sister.

It's like she's actually her.

Mama has...

What was that?!

Don't tell me...

Tzveta's here, too, isn't she?
**[18:27] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan? Yeah, she's here.
**[18:30] Kufufu**
You see, you see... We're here
because Tzveta-chan's...
**[18:33] Kufufu**
Huh?
**[18:34] Tzveta**
You'll probably end up
telling them everything.
**[18:39] Tzveta**
Hello, Pesha.
**[18:41] Tzveta**
I'm happy to see you again.
**[18:45] Tzveta**
Sorry about last time.
**[18:48] Tzveta**
But you did something mean,
like an adult would.
**[18:53] Spirit**
Tzveta, why are you here?
**[18:57] Spirit**
*She does resemble Mama.*

*But that's impossible.*
**[19:02] Spirit**
* Stigma takes advantage of the*

**[19:16] Tzveta**
Why am I here, huh?
**[19:20] Tzveta**
You see... I don't remember anything
before waking up at the North Pole.
**[19:25] Tzveta**
So I wonder why...
**[19:28] Tzveta**
I happen to remember you and
this place just a little bit.
**[19:35] Tzveta**
I wonder if I cared a lot about you...
**[19:39] Tzveta**
Or perhaps I hated you...
**[19:43] Spirit**
That's enough! Just who are you?!
**[19:46] Spirit**
Why do you look like Mama?
**[19:49] Tzveta**
Mama, huh? I wonder if that's why
I keep wanting to call you Pesha.
**[20:02] Spirit**
If you keep mocking my mama
with that imitation,
**[20:05] Spirit**
I'm going to get angry!
**[20:06] Tzveta**
How strange.
**[20:09] Tzveta**
When I look at you, my heart feels restless.
**[20:14] Tzveta**
There are only a few things I remember,
**[20:18] Tzveta**
but I very much approve of Stigma's ideas.
**[20:22] Tzveta**
I'm pretty sure I hated this world.
**[20:26] Tzveta**
This cold world... overflowing
with pain and suffering.
**[20:32] Tzveta**
But this place is so warm...
**[20:37] Tzveta**
I wanted to live here forever.
**[20:40] Tzveta**
The nostalgic landscape of my heart,
**[20:43] Tzveta**

It'd be a waste if I were given these
amazing powers and didn't use them!
**[06:16] Kufufu**
Let's all make a smiling flower bloom!
**[06:21] Shy**
S-Smiling?
**[06:23] Kufufu**
First, Tzveta-chan said she wanted
to make everyone here smile!
**[06:28] Kufufu**
And then eventually, Amarariruku will
make flowers bloom all over the world!
**[06:33] Kufufu**
Like this!
**[06:34] Tzveta**
How pretty.
**[06:36] Kufufu**
You're even prettier, Tzveta-chan!
**[06:40] Shy**
I-I won't let you do that!
**[06:44] Kufufu**
Huh?
**[06:46] Kufufu**
See? You really do like
getting in people's way.
**[06:50] Kufufu**
You're such awful people.
**[06:53] Tzveta**
There's no point in trying
to talk to them, Kufufu-san.
**[06:56] Tzveta**
Heroes won't even bother trying
to think about how we feel.
**[07:04] Spirit**
You know...
**[07:06] Spirit**
You sure have been running
your mouths long enough.
**[07:09] Spirit**
This is definitely gonna hurt, but...
**[07:12] Spirit**
wake up already!
**[07:19] Shy**
Pepesha-san!
**[07:20] Spirit**
Teru-chan, don't let your guard down!
**[07:24] Tzveta**
I see...
**[07:27] Tzveta**
That did wake us up, just a little.
**[07:32] Spirit**
Then I guess your next punishment
will have to be a bit rougher.
**[07:37] Tzveta**
Payback time.
**[07:39] Kufufu**
Boo!
**[07:40] Shy**
Huh?!
**[07:41] Kufufu**
Choppy!
**[07:43] Spirit**
Like I'd actually let that happen!
**[07:50] Tzveta**
Kufufu-san, continue dealing
with the shy girl over there.
**[07:54] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan.
**[07:57] Kufufu**
I wuv you.
**[07:58] Tzveta**
Go, please.
**[08:00] Kufufu**
Okee!
**[08:02] Kufufu**
D'oh!
**[08:07] Kufufu**
You're wide open!
**[08:08] Kufufu**
Fly! Hammer!
**[08:12] Spirit**
Enough of your fooling around!
**[08:17] Tzveta**
That's some power.
**[08:20] Spirit**
Right?
**[08:21] Spirit**
This is my special attack that
I thought up while drunk.
**[08:26] Spirit**
It's called Airy Blast.
**[08:29] Spirit**
I can shoot condensed smoke like a cannon.
**[08:33] Spirit**
All the bad little kids tell
me how much it hurts.
**[08:37] Tzveta**
Kufufu-san, are you all right?
**[08:39] Tzveta**
You should be. That ice
cushioned your crash.
**[08:42] Tzveta**
Okay, off you go again.
**[08:44] Kufufu**
Um, well, Tzveta-chan...
**[08:48] Kufufu**
I'm okay, but...
**[08:49] Kufufu**
That still hurt a little.
**[08:53] Tzveta**
I see. That's too bad.
I guess you can't, then.
**[08:56] Tzveta**
I'm so disappointed in you.
**[08:57] Kufufu**
No, hey, wait...
**[08:59] Kufufu**
I was hoping I could get
a little more... love.
**[09:03] Tzveta**
Love?
**[09:04] Kufufu**
You know, like being a little kinder in
worrying about me, giving me head pats,
**[09:07] Kufufu**
or comforting me so the owies go away!
**[09:11] Tzveta**
Go away, owies...
**[09:13] Tzveta**
Okay, now you go, too.
**[09:15] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan?!
**[09:17] Kufufu**
Now you're just making me seem
like a burden, and that hurts.
**[09:22] Tzveta**
Go.
**[09:24] Kufufu**
Why is love so hard?
**[09:28] Shy**
I-I have no idea how to deal with this...
**[09:31] Spirit**
Teru-chan, back me up.
**[09:34] Spirit**
I want to move everyone who's
down to somewhere safe.
**[09:38] Shy**
Huh?
**[09:39] Spirit**
Their attacks are not only unpredictable,
but they have a huge range.
**[09:44] Spirit**
At this rate, everyone here might
get caught up in the fighting.
**[09:48] Spirit**
And based on what she said earlier,
**[09:52] Spirit**
I think this whole space
is negatively affected.
**[09:55] Spirit**
So if we can get them away from this area,
everyone should wake up.
**[10:01] Spirit**
I'm going to carry everyone beyond that wall.
**[10:05] Spirit**
While I do that, I need you to watch my back.
**[10:10] Shy**
O-Of course!
**[10:14] Spirit**
I'm counting on you, Shy!
**[10:16] Kufufu**
Love, love!
**[10:21] Kufufu**
They're getting away! They're getting away!
**[10:24] Tzveta**
There's no problem.
**[10:31] Shy**
I promised we'd carry this together...
**[10:35] Shy**
Which means... I need to do
my duty, no matter what!
**[10:40] Shy**
I won't let you get in her way!
**[10:43] Shy**
Blazing Stroke!
**[10:47] Kufufu**
You fight fire with... water!
**[10:55] Kufufu**
JK!
**[10:57] Tzveta**
Well said.
**[10:59] Tzveta**
Owies, owies... owies.
**[11:03] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan, when you say it that way,
the owies won't go away.
**[11:06] Kufufu**
Wait! They're getting away!
**[11:10] Spirit**
Thanks for the assist, Teru-chan!
**[11:13] Spirit**
Thanks to you, I'll be able to
get everyone out safely!
**[11:23] Spirit**
Huh?!
**[11:29] Tzveta**
This is the inside of my heart.
**[11:34] Tzveta**
You won't be able to leave.
**[11:41] Spirit**
Shy.

**[11:51] Shy**
Pepesha-san!
**[11:56] Kufufu**
It's all stretchy like birdlime! How funny!
**[11:59] Shy**
B-But why? I know you definitely
made it through the wall...
**[12:05] Tzveta**
I've rejected the outside world.
**[12:09] Tzveta**
But that's why the outside world
has also rejected me.
**[12:13] Tzveta**
Anyone who touches the walls of my heart
**[12:16] Tzveta**
returns right back to me.
**[12:20] Tzveta**
No one may leave or enter this space.
**[12:24] Tzveta**
Pesha, a person's heart is
made up of three components.
**[12:30] Tzveta**
First is the world.
**[12:32] Tzveta**
Second, emotions.
**[12:34] Tzveta**
Third, memories.
**[12:37] Tzveta**
The same is true for this space.
**[12:40] Tzveta**
The emotions are mine,
and the world is this place.
**[12:48] Tzveta**
The memories are the only thing missing.
**[12:52] Tzveta**
That's the only piece I need
to make my heart complete.
**[12:57] Shy**
Memories?
**[12:59] Tzveta**
That's why we met at the
North Pole and reunited here.
**[13:06] Spirit**
Why are you telling me this?
**[13:10] Tzveta**
Well... The reason I'm blabbing
everything to you is...
**[13:16] Tzveta**
I wanted some time... to prepare my heart.
**[13:23] Tzveta**
Let me peek into yours.
**[13:28] Spirit**
Everyone?!
**[13:32] Shy**
*I...*
**[13:33] Shy**
*I have to stop them.*
**[13:34] Kufufu**
I told you that you can't get
in the way, didn't I?
**[13:37] Kufufu**
Things are just getting
interesting, after all.
**[13:40] Shy**
Why, you—
**[13:41] Shy**
Let go of me!
**[13:46] Kufufu**
Too bad! This outfit is a totally
fireproof firefighter uniform!
**[13:52] Kufufu**
How do I look?
**[13:54] Spirit**
What did you do to them?
**[13:57] Tzveta**
I poured some heart into them...
My heart, that is.
**[14:02] Tzveta**
My heart, which overflows
throughout this space...
**[14:06] Tzveta**
It flowed into their subconscious.
**[14:10] Tzveta**
And now, we're connected.
Our hearts are connected as one.
**[14:16] Spirit**
Connected? You're just
controlling all of them!
**[14:21] Tzveta**
Well, that's an awful way to put it.
**[14:24] Tzveta**
They're all me...
**[14:26] Tzveta**
And I'm all of them.
**[14:31] Tzveta**
Let's all get along... Pesha.
**[14:36] Spirit**
*Natalia-san just summoned ice?!*
**[14:37] Spirit**
Everyone! Snap out of it!
**[14:40] Spirit**
If I can't get them to snap out of it,
they'll be under her control forever!
**[14:43] Isaak**
Not true, Pesha.
**[14:46] Natalia**
Pesha, our eyes have been opened.
**[14:51] Child B**
Rather than the outside world
that's filled with filth...
**[14:54] Natalia**
We wish to spend eternity
in this ideal world.
**[14:58] Isaak**
There is no hope in the outside world.
**[15:02] Child B and C**
Only youth can save us.
**[15:06] Tzveta**
Maturity means defeat.
**[15:12] Child B**
Pesha.
**[15:13] Child C**
Let's live here together.
**[15:16] Natalia**
All that exists in the outside world is pain.
**[15:19] Isaak**
The children that I've loved are
disappearing into the heartless reality.
**[15:24] Spirit**
Sir...
**[15:28] Child A**
It's cold outside.
**[15:30] Child D**
It's warm in our home.
**[15:32] Child C**
I don't like pain.
**[15:34] Child B**
I want to be happy.
**[15:36] Natalia**
Yes, we're all the same.
**[15:40] Natalia**
There's no point in departing
on a journey just to seek pain.
**[15:46] Isaak**
We're all going to live together
in warmth right here.
**[15:51] Spirit**
E-Everyone...
**[15:54] Tzveta**
See? You heard what they said.
**[15:58] Tzveta**
Don't you feel the same way... Pesha?
**[16:02] Spirit**
You're just making them say all that!
**[16:05] Tzveta**
What are you talking about?
That's just how they really feel inside.
**[16:10] Tzveta**
I can tell. We're connected, after all.
**[16:15] Shy**
Pepesha-san! Look out!
**[16:20] Spirit**
Wh-What can I do?
**[16:25] Child B**
Only this warm place can
bring us true peace...
**[16:32] Spirit**
She's shaking...
**[16:35] Child B**
I want you to be with us here, too.
**[16:39] Child B**
I'm scared...
**[16:45] Child B**
I'm happy! I'm so happy!
Because I don't have to think about anything!
**[16:51] Child B**
I'm cold... Save me... Someone...
**[17:01] Spirit**
Tzveta!
**[17:08] Spirit**
What do you think people's hearts are?!
**[17:12] Shy**
Pepesha-san, calm down!
**[17:14] Kufufu**
Nope! If she calms down,
it's gonna kill the whole mood.
**[17:19] Shy**
*What is this? Something's wrong...*
**[17:22] Shy**
*She's also not doing anything else...*
**[17:26] Shy**
* And all the words coming out of everyone*
* being controlled have been unnatural.*
**[17:31] Shy**
*It's like she's trying to make Pepesha-san mad.*
**[17:37] Tzveta**
In between your aggressively wavering
emotions... I can get a glimpse of your life.
**[17:45] Tzveta**
I've been waiting this whole
time for you to get angry.
**[17:52] Shy**
Pepesha-san! Get away from her! She's—
**[17:55] Spirit**
*Is she absorbing the power from my heart?*
**[18:00] Spirit**
*But that's—*
**[18:01] Tzveta**
On a cold, cold winter's night...
**[18:05] Tzveta**
Pesha's tiny hand...
**[18:13] Tzveta**
I can see your tiny hand weakly
gripping my ice-cold hand...
**[18:23] Tzveta**
If you touch this hand, they'll come back...
**[18:29] Tzveta**
The missing pieces of my memories...
**[18:33] Tzveta**
Ah, I'm starting to remember them.
**[18:52] Tzveta**
The candle that just wouldn't
light on shivering nights...
**[18:56] Tzveta**
The moon that looked down
upon us from the night sky...
**[18:59] Tzveta**
The lake that seemed like an abyss...
**[19:03] Tzveta**
Hey, why? Why did everyone lie to me?
**[19:08] Tzveta**
I believed in all of you.
**[19:13] Tzveta**
But the outside world is just so...
**[19:16] Tzveta**
full of shit!
**[19:34] Letana**
*I love this place.*
**[19:49] (Flashback) Natalia**
Smile, Lenya!
**[19:58] (Flashback) Isaak**
May you find happiness.
**[20:01] (Flashback) Isaak**
Have a wonderful life.
**[20:08] Letana**
*But I was told that the outside world*
**[20:11] Letana**
* was overflowing with even more*
* wonderful things worth loving.*
**[20:17] Letana**
*I wanted to find them...*
**[20:20] Letana**
*So I departed excitedly.*
**[20:34] (Flashback) Letana**
"Babies love their mother's smile"?
**[20:54] (Flashback) Letana**
Welcome... my precious...
**[21:19] Letana**
*The wonderful things in the outside world...*
**[21:28] Letana**
*Tell me... What exactly...*
**[21:34] Letana**
*were those supposed to be?*
**[21:42] Tzveta/Letana**
*Ah... It's so cold.*
**[21:52] Spirit**
Mama...
**[21:58] Shy**
Pepesha-san!

The Lonely Ice
and Small Flame
**[02:13] Letana**
* The few years I had after*
* leaving the orphanage*
**[02:16] Letana**
* were more than enough to learn*
* just how cold the outside world was.*
**[02:22] (Flashback) Letana**
Please take one.
**[02:24] (Flashback) Letana**
How about one for your little one?
**[02:26] (Flashback) Letana**
It'll make them happy.
**[02:28] (Flashback) Letana**
Please take one. Please.
**[02:52] (Flashback) Letana**
I'm...
**[02:54] (Flashback) Letana**
going to have to find more work.
**[02:59] (Flashback) Letana**
It's so cold.
**[03:13] (Flashback) Letana**
What's the matter, Pesha?
**[03:15] (Flashback) Letana**
Are you hungry?
**[03:20] (Flashback) Letana**
Right. I'm sorry.
**[03:24] (Flashback) Letana**
I'll make you something.
**[03:26] (Flashback) Letana**
Wait a moment, okay?
**[03:34] Letana**
*Pesha is my one and only light.*
**[03:38] Letana**
*I won't let you feel hungry or sad...*
**[03:52] (Flashback) Employee**
Letana-san. Do you have a moment?
**[03:57] (Flashback) Employee**
I'm sorry, but could you quit
at the end of the month?
**[04:01] (Flashback) Letana**
Huh?
**[04:02] (Flashback) Employee**
You know... We're in a recession right now.
**[04:04] (Flashback) Employee**
We're struggling with job cuts.
**[04:10] (Flashback) Letana**
I see... I understand.
**[04:16] Letana**
*I'm going to need to find my next job...*
**[04:23] (Flashback) Letana**
Pesha, my dear...
**[04:25] (Flashback) Letana**
You can't fall asleep here.
**[04:33] Letana**
*Pesha and I are both... smiling?*
**[04:36] Letana**
*And a cake?*
**[04:40] Letana**
*Have I ever even made a face like this?*
**[04:46] (Flashback) Letana**
I'm so sorry, Pesha,
**[04:48] (Flashback) Letana**
that I can't let you eat
all this wonderful food.
**[04:53] (Flashback) Letana**
But someday... Someday I will...
**[05:06] Letana**
*I can't cut down our food budget any further.*
**[05:09] Letana**
* I need to find more work*
* quickly, or Pesha will...*
**[05:18] (Flashback) Letana**
Yes? Can I help you?
**[05:18] (Flashback) Landlady**
Damn it, Letana-san!
**[05:21] (Flashback) Landlady**
You know why I'm here!
**[05:22] (Flashback) Landlady**
Your rent! You're already six months behind!
**[05:28] (Flashback) Letana**
I'm so sorry... I'm having a
really hard time finding work.
**[05:33] (Flashback) Landlady**
Things are hard for me, too.
**[05:35] (Flashback) Landlady**
I'm no monster, so I hate to say this...
**[05:38] (Flashback) Landlady**
But if this continues, I'm going
to have to ask you to leave.
**[05:43] (Flashback) Letana**
I'm sorry. I just need a little more time...
**[05:59] (Flashback) Letana**
What's the matter, Pesha?
**[06:02] (Flashback) Letana**
You're not going to eat?
**[06:06] (Flashback) Letana**
You can't be a picky eater.
**[06:08] (Flashback) Letana**
You need to eat everything you can.
**[06:14] (Flashback) Letana**
Come on, Pesha. I know you understand.
**[06:17] (Flashback) Letana**
Please, just eat. Be a good girl.
**[06:20] (Flashback) Letana**
Come on. Please... Pesha.
**[06:25] (Flashback) Letana**
That's enough!
**[06:31] (Flashback) Letana**
Pesha, no... I-I was just...
**[06:35] (Flashback) Pepesha**
Ma...
**[06:37] (Flashback) Pepesha**
Mama... You... h-haven't
eaten anything in so long...
**[06:43] (Flashback) Pepesha**
I just wanted to tell you...
th-that you should eat my share...
**[06:49] (Flashback) Pepesha**
I'm sorry...
**[06:52] (Flashback) Pepesha**
I'm sorry...
**[06:55] (Flashback) Pepesha**
I'm sorry...
**[06:57] Letana**
*I can't.*
**[07:00] Letana**
*I can't be this child's mother.*
**[07:04] Letana**
*Because of me, she'll never be happy.*
**[07:11] Letana**
*If I were to just disappear...*
**[07:22] Letana**
*If I just disappeared...*
**[07:28] Letana**
* I wonder if Pesha would also be able*
* to go to that orphanage and be happy...*
**[07:34] Letana**
*I wish I could go back to those days.*
**[07:37] Letana**
*To that warm... happy place.*
**[07:42] Letana**
*I can't bear these cold winter nights anymore.*
**[07:48] Letana**
*Since this is the end...*
**[07:50] Letana**
* I want to let her have some*
* delicious cake, just this once.*
**[07:58] (Flashback) Bakery employee**
Oh, welcome.
**[08:01] (Flashback) Bakery employee**
What kind of cake are you looking for?
**[08:04] (Flashback) Letana**
Um... I was thinking about getting
a delicious cake for my daughter...
**[08:11] (Flashback) Letana**
But I'll actually just take
one of these cookies...
**[08:15] (Flashback) Bakery employee**
Oh, dear. Just a moment.
**[08:19] (Flashback) Bakery employee**
Here you go. This is the
cake that I recommend.
**[08:22] (Flashback) Bakery employee**
It's very delicious.
**[08:24] (Flashback) Letana**
Huh? But... I can't afford this.
**[08:27] (Flashback) Letana**
This is so extravagant.
**[08:29] (Flashback) Bakery Employee**
Oh, it's fine. Please take it.
**[08:33] (Flashback) Letana**
Huh?
**[08:34] (Flashback) Bakery Employee**
But in return, once you eat it, please come
back to tell me if you liked it or not.
**[08:38] (Flashback) Bakery Employee**
And when you do, bring
your daughter with you.
**[08:43] (Flashback) Letana**
Thank you... truly.
**[08:46] (Flashback) Letana**
I promise... I'll come back again.
**[08:57] Letana**
*I can't...*
**[08:59] Letana**
* I can't give up yet...*
* For Pesha's sake, as well.*
**[09:04] Letana**
*I need to apologize for yelling at her.*
**[09:09] Letana**
*I wonder if Pesha hates me now.*
**[09:13] Letana**
*I need to tell her...*
**[09:26] Letana**
*that even so, I'm wishing for her happiness.*
**[09:32] Letana**
* Come to think of it... I've never*
* properly told her how I felt.*
**[09:45] (Flashback) Vagrant**
You had the nerve to buy
cake? You rich bitch.
**[09:57] Letana**
*The world... took everything away from me...*
**[10:02] Letana**
*But that's fine.*
**[10:06] Letana**
*Even if I go to hell...*
**[10:15] Letana**
*Pesha.*
**[10:17] Letana**
*May you and so many children like you*
**[10:21] Letana**
* never know about this world*
* that's so filled with pain.*
**[10:26] Letana**
*To ensure that happens,*
**[10:28] Letana**
* I'd even become a demon*
* and destroy this world...*
**[10:33] Letana**
*Oh...*
**[10:35] Letana**
*It's so cold.*
**[10:41] Spirit**
Ma...
**[10:43] Spirit**
Mama...
**[10:45] Tzveta**
Say, Pesha...
**[10:47] Tzveta**
I'll protect all of you from this hell.
**[10:53] Shy**
Pepesha-san!
**[10:55] Shy**
* What I just saw... Was that...*
* Pepesha-san's mom's memories?*
**[10:59] Kufufu**
Did you see that, too, you pain in the butt?
**[11:02] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan's unfortunate memories
that you can't even laugh at?
**[11:06] Kufufu**
And now, quiz time!
**[11:08] Kufufu**
Here!
***SIGN*** Pain in the Butt
**[11:10] Kufufu**
Will the heroes be able to
make Tzveta-chan smile?
**[11:18] Kufufu**
Welp, too bad! You're out of time!
**[11:20] Kufufu**
You can explody now!
***SIGN*** Pain in the Butt
**[11:23] Shy**
I-I should've expected that!
**[11:28] Spirit**
Are you... really Mama? Really?
**[11:32] Tzveta**
Yes. The Mama you hate.
**[11:36] Tzveta**
You loathed me, didn't you?
**[11:39] Tzveta**
Because I couldn't make you happy.
**[11:43] Spirit**
*Why... Why would you say that?*
**[11:47] Tzveta**
But that's fine.
**[11:49] Tzveta**
Even if my flesh goes up in flames,
**[11:51] Tzveta**
I just wish for your happiness...
**[11:54] Spirit**
*She's wrong. I have to tell her.*
**[11:58] Tzveta**
I'll even embrace all the
hatred in this world...
**[12:01] Spirit**
*I have to tell her. I...*
**[12:04] Tzveta**
...and sing a lullaby.
**[12:08] Spirit**
Mama—
**[12:15] Pepesha**
*I can't... My heart is already...*
**[12:19] Tzveta**
Pesha. You don't need to suffer anymore.
**[12:24] Tzveta**
Suffering doesn't belong here.
**[12:27] Tzveta**
This place is what created
you as you are right now.
**[12:31] Tzveta**
The you that I ruined.
**[12:34] Tzveta**
Come now, Pesha. Don't cry.
**[12:37] Tzveta**
I'm truly happy...
**[12:41] Tzveta**
to see that you've become
so happy without me.
**[12:49] Shy**
You're wrong!
***SIGN*** Pain in the Butt
**[13:01] Kufufu**
Huh? Where'd ya go?
**[13:04] Shy**
You're forgetting something very important!
**[13:07] Shy**
You have no idea just how precious
you are to Pepesha-san!
**[13:12] Shy**
The kindness you showed her...
continues to live in Spirit's heart!
**[13:18] Pepesha**
* That's when I remembered a small*
* flame from a candle I'd seen once.*
**[13:26] Pepesha**
* The flame stood no chance*
* against the cold that day,*
**[13:30] Pepesha**
*so it was tiny and flickering...*
**[13:34] Pepesha**
* But even so, it was more than enough*
* to let me dream about tomorrow.*
**[13:38] Pepesha**
*That's how strong and warm it was.*
**[13:41] Shy**
Your dark, frozen heart...
**[13:46] Shy**
I'm...
**[13:47] Shy**
going to light it back up!
**[13:53] Shy**
Shy.

Warm flames...
**[14:09] Tzveta**
Flames you just want to cozy up to forever...
**[14:15] Tzveta**
But I don't need them anymore.
**[14:19] Tzveta**
Those flames won't reach anywhere.
**[14:24] Tzveta**
Now that my emotions and
memories have returned,
**[14:27] Tzveta**
my heart has been completed.
**[14:33] Tzveta**
My Amarariruku...
**[14:40] Tzveta**
is even bigger now!
**[14:49] Tzveta**
It'll continue to spread!
**[14:54] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan's got wings now!
**[14:57] Kufufu**
Oh, crap, crap, crap, crap, crap...
**[15:01] Pepesha**
*Her powers have grown even stronger?*
**[15:03] Tzveta**
You cannot stop me.
**[15:14] Pepesha**
* It's so cold... It's almost*
* enough to freeze even my lungs.*
**[15:23] Tzveta**
Oh?
**[15:28] Tzveta**
You're so persistent.
**[15:49] Tzveta**
In that case...
**[16:04] Tzveta**
What? What's going on?
**[16:12] Tzveta**
My powers have definitely gotten stronger.
**[16:18] Tzveta**
So why is this child...
**[16:37] Tzveta**
Just who are you?
**[16:42] Shy**
All I can sense from your ice is loneliness.
**[16:47] Shy**
Your sad powers can't harm me.
**[16:51] Tzveta**
You foolish child!
**[16:52] Tzveta**
You think you can understand
my heart at all?!
**[16:55] Shy**
Of course I can, because
I'm very familiar with it.
**[16:59] Shy**
I've seen those tears before.
**[17:03] Shy**
Those tears...
**[17:05] Shy**
are the tears you cry when you harm
yourself for the sake of someone else.
**[17:10] Shy**
You're okay with being the only one to suffer.
**[17:13] Shy**
You're willing to sacrifice yourself...
**[17:17] Shy**
You've been ignoring how Pepesha-san
feels this whole time.
**[17:21] Tzveta**
Shut your mouth!
**[17:25] Tzveta**
You know *nothing* about me!
**[17:27] Tzveta**
Don't speak as though you do!
**[17:29] Tzveta**
I don't care what happens to me!
**[17:33] Tzveta**
I don't care if no one cares about me!
**[17:35] Tzveta**
I'll endure any pain for
the sake of the children!
**[17:44] Shy**
Pepesha-san!
**[17:47] Shy**
The reason Pepesha-san is here right now...
**[17:49] Shy**
is because of the love...
**[17:52] Shy**
she clearly inherited from you!
**[17:56] Shy**
The kind of love that, given
even the smallest opportunity,
**[18:00] Shy**
she shares with others!
**[18:04] Shy**
Her kind heart that allows
her to care for others!
**[18:07] Shy**
She inherited that from you!
**[18:12] Shy**
It's because she admired you so much
**[18:15] Shy**
that she became a world-saving hero!
**[18:17] Tzveta**
That can't be.
**[18:20] Tzveta**
I couldn't do anything for Pesha.
**[18:25] Tzveta**
That's why I'm here right now...
**[18:28] Tzveta**
So that no more failures
like myself are born!
**[18:32] Shy**
You're just scared.
**[18:34] Shy**
You keep saying that you don't
care what happens to you...
**[18:39] Shy**
But no person is okay with not being loved!
**[18:42] Shy**
You're...
**[18:43] Tzveta**
I don't need any of that!
**[18:56] Pepesha**
*Teru-chan...*
**[18:58] Pepesha**
*Why are you so...*
**[19:02] Shy**
Spirit.
**[19:18] Shy**
It'll be okay.
**[19:19] Shy**
I promise.
**[19:22] Shy**
So please, tell her properly.
**[19:24] Shy**
Actually use your words.
**[19:28] Shy**
I'll help take on some of the pain.
**[19:32] Shy**
So please... Tell her how you really feel.
**[19:38] Tzveta**
I won't let you get in the way!
**[19:46] Tzveta**
This is all for my ideals!
**[19:50] Pepesha**
*Watching Teru-chan reminds me of my old self.*
**[19:55] Tzveta**
For the children!
**[20:02] Pepesha**
*That's why I could never leave her alone,*
**[20:04] Pepesha**
* and always intended to give*
* her the push that she needed.*
**[20:08] Pepesha**
*But... But you're actually...*
**[20:34] Pepesha**
I couldn't build up the courage.
**[20:37] Pepesha**
I was too scared of hurting you, Mama.
**[20:40] Pepesha**
Scared you might end up hating me.
**[20:43] Pepesha**
But back then...
**[20:46] Pepesha**
I should've told you how I really felt.
**[20:52] Pepesha**
Say, Mama... This is embarrassing
and really hard to say...
**[20:58] Pepesha**
But will you do this with me?
**[21:07] Spirit**
My first ever...
**[21:09] Spirit**
all-out fight between
mother and daughter!

What Is Conveyed
and That Which Remains
**[00:07] (Flashback) Random Man**
That was definitely a woman.
**[00:09] (Flashback) Random Woman**
And it's Christmas, too. That poor thing.
**[00:11] (Flashback) Police**
H-Hey!
**[00:22] (Flashback) Young Pepesha**
Mama...
**[00:23] (Flashback) Young Pepesha**
Mama! No!
**[00:25] (Flashback) Young Pepesha**
No! No!
**[00:28] (Flashback) Young Pepesha**
Mama...
**[00:30] (Flashback) Young Pepesha**
Mama!
**[00:36] Pepesha**
*I had regretted it this whole time.*
**[00:41] Pepesha**
* I wasn't very good at conveying*
* how I felt with words.*
**[00:46] Pepesha**
* I was scared that something I'd say*
* would completely change everything.*
**[00:55] Pepesha**
*I'm sure you felt the same way...*
**[00:59] Pepesha**
*Mama.*
**[01:06] Pepesha**
*Back then...*
**[01:09] Pepesha**
*If I was able to tell you*
**[01:11] Pepesha**
*how I honestly felt...*
**[01:16] Pepesha**
* I carried that regret with*
* me this whole time.*
**[01:20] Pepesha**
*So the truth is...*
**[01:23] Pepesha**
*I'm a little happy.*
**[01:26] Spirit**
*Because...*
**[01:32] Spirit**
Now, I can tell you...
**[01:35] Spirit**
how I feel...
**[01:37] Spirit**
Mama!
**[01:41] Shy**
Pepesha-san...
**[01:44] Tzveta**
Pesha, calm down.
**[01:47] Tzveta**
You can't do anything.
**[01:49] Spirit**
No. I know that there's
something only I can do.
**[01:54] Spirit**
*The fragment of the memory I saw earlier...*
**[01:57] Spirit**
* If that was Mama's heart that I saw through*
* the power of the Heart-shift bracelets...*
**[02:02] Spirit**
*I'm sure I'll be able to tell her.*
**[02:05] Spirit**
*My heart...*
**[02:08] Spirit**
*My true spirit!*
**[02:14] Spirit**
Say, Mama, do you remember...
**[02:18] Spirit**
The promise we made when I was really little?
**[02:23] Spirit**
The wish that I thought
would never come true...
**[02:27] Spirit**
Now, I'll be able to take your hand.
**[02:31] Tzveta**
Stay back!
**[02:33] Tzveta**
Promise? I don't know anything about that!
**[02:37] Tzveta**
Pesha couldn't say anything!
**[02:39] Tzveta**
I'm sure she hated me...
**[02:42] Tzveta**
Because I was the source
of all her misfortune.
**[02:45] Spirit**
We were both just awkward.
**[02:48] Spirit**
We each thought that suppressing our
emotions would make the other happy.
**[02:55] Spirit**
Say, Mama... tell me.
**[02:58] Spirit**
Tell me how you really feel in your heart.
**[03:01] Spirit**
You still haven't told me.
**[03:03] Spirit**
What kind of child was I to you?
**[03:08] Tzveta**
What... are you talking about?
**[03:11] Tzveta**
How I really...
**[03:16] Letana**
*Pesha, are you cold?*
**[03:18] Letana**
*Well, did you know this?*
**[03:21] Tzveta**
My... heart... I...
**[03:27] (Flashback) Letana**
There's a very warm magic spell
perfect for cold days like this.
**[03:33] Spirit**
Mama...
**[03:35] Kufufu**
Surprise!
**[03:38] Kufufu**
Nope, nope.
**[03:40] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan...
**[03:42] Kufufu**
has Kufufu-san by her side!
**[03:45] Kufufu**
Poor wittle Tzveta-chan...
**[03:47] Kufufu**
Your heart is aching, and you're so scared.
**[03:51] Kufufu**
But it's okay!
**[03:53] Kufufu**
Now, remember, Tzveta-chan!
**[03:56] Kufufu**
What was your dream again?
**[04:02] Tzveta**
That's... right. I...
**[04:14] Tzveta**
My life is for all of the
children of the world...
**[04:30] Tzveta**
To create this happy place...
**[04:32] Tzveta**
all around the world!
**[04:36] Spirit**
Such immense yet sad power...
**[04:39] Spirit**
Mama...
**[04:42] Shy**
Pepesha-san.
**[04:43] Shy**
I'm sure the two of us
can reach her. Together.
**[04:47] Shy**
If we combine our powers,
nothing can overcome us!
**[04:56] Spirit**
You're right.
**[04:59] Spirit**
Even if she's at the bottom of
an endlessly deep glacier...
**[05:02] Shy**
...we'll make sure this reaches her!
**[05:05] Shy and Spirit**
These feelings!
**[05:09] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan!
**[05:11] Tzveta**
It's cold.
**[05:17] Tzveta**
* My cold, corpse-like body,*
* so cold that I've stopped shivering...*
**[05:25] Tzveta**
*So what?! None of that matters!*
**[05:30] Kufufu**
Tzveta-cha—
**[05:32] Tzveta**
*I only have one wish.*
**[05:41] Tzveta**
* I just want this freezing world*
* gone. That's all I wanted.*
**[05:46] Pepesha**
Mama!
**[05:49] Letana**
*For who?*
**[05:52] Letana**
*There was no one... around me.*
**[05:58] Letana**
* I only wished that I wouldn't*
* be a burden to anyone.*
**[06:03] Letana**
*I don't have anyone...*
**[06:05] Letana**
*I don't need anyone.*
**[06:09] Letana**
*It's cold.*
**[06:11] Young Pepesha**
Now...
**[06:13] Young Pepesha**
you're not cold anymore, right?
**[06:17] Letana**
*Welcome... my precious...*
**[06:23] Tzveta**
*Pesha.*
**[06:38] Spirit**
I'm right here.
**[06:41] Spirit**
So please...
**[06:47] (Flashback) Letana**
See? If we stay together like this...
**[06:52] Spirit**
I'm not cold anymore, Mama.
**[07:02] Pepesha**
* My Mama was never talkative*
* and always cool...*
**[07:07] Pepesha**
* But there were some nights she'd*
* laugh cutely, like a child,*
**[07:11] Pepesha**
*and we'd talk with each other.*
**[07:14] Pepesha**
*And when we did...*
**[07:26] (Flashback) Natalia**
What are you looking at, Pepesha?
**[07:31] (Flashback) Natalia**
A photo of Lenya, eh?
**[07:35] (Flashback) Pepesha**
D-Did Mama not want me anymore?
**[07:41] (Flashback) Pepesha**
Is that why Mama died on her own?
**[07:46] (Flashback) Natalia**
Pepesha... What happened
to Lenya was an accident.
**[07:50] (Flashback) Natalia**
Besides, she loved you very much.
**[07:53] (Flashback) Pepesha**
You're lying. She went
away because she hated me.
**[08:01] (Flashback) Natalia**
Here.
**[08:06] (Flashback) Natalia**
These are letters from Lenya.
**[08:08] (Flashback) Natalia**
She'd actually send me
letters every now and then.
**[08:13] (Flashback) Natalia**
Lenya never showed her weaknesses to others,
**[08:17] (Flashback) Natalia**
but very rarely, she would
actually show her emotions.
**[08:21] (Flashback) Natalia**
She probably wrote those letters
during one of those instances.
**[08:25] (Flashback) Natalia**
Lenya couldn't hold her liquor at all,
**[08:28] (Flashback) Natalia**
so she probably didn't
remember writing them.
**[08:32] (Flashback) Natalia**
Honestly, she was hopeless.
**[08:37] (Flashback) Letana**
Pesha, are you cold?
**[08:40] (Flashback) Letana**
Well, did you know this?
**[08:43] (Flashback) Letana**
There's a very warm magic spell
perfect for cold days like this.
**[08:48] (Flashback) Letana**
See? If we stay together like this,
we're not cold anymore, Pesha.
**[08:54] (Flashback) Pepesha**
Mama, you smell like alcohol.
**[08:56] (Flashback) Letana**
Huh? You can tell?
**[08:58] (Flashback) Pepesha**
Of course I can!
**[09:03] (Flashback) Letana**
Maybe I had too much to drink.
**[09:06] Pepesha**
*Yes, exactly. Whenever Mama*
**[09:09] Pepesha**
*drank alcohol, she'd laugh like a child.*
**[09:14] Pepesha**
* We'd play around like friends and*
* talk about the silliest things.*
**[09:19] Pepesha**
*And that's why I thought...*
**[09:22] Pepesha**
* that alcohol was a magic medicine that*
* allowed adults to return to being children.*
**[09:30] (Flashback) Letana**
Say, Pesha. There's a really lovely place.
**[09:34] (Flashback) Letana**
You'll never go hungry,
and it's always nice and warm.
**[09:40] (Flashback) Letana**
Would you like to go there?
**[09:43] (Flashback) Pepesha**
Will you be there with me, Mama?
**[09:46] (Flashback) Letana**
No, adults can't go there.
**[09:51] (Flashback) Letana**
Well?
**[09:54] (Flashback) Letana**
Why?
**[09:56] (Flashback) Pepesha**
Because I want to stay with you, Mama.
**[10:01] (Flashback) Letana**
I see.
**[10:03] (Flashback) Letana**
I feel the same way.
**[10:06] Letana**
* Pesha. Once you're an adult,*
* let's drink together, side by side.*
**[10:13] Letana**
* And then, just like today, we can*
* laugh like children together.*
**[10:20] Letana**
*Let's make sure we promise each other that.*
**[10:23] Letana**
* May this world remain dazzling*
* until you become an adult.*
**[10:33] (Flashback) Pepesha**
Mama...
**[10:37] (Flashback) Natalia**
Oh, that's right.
**[10:40] (Flashback) Natalia**
She wrote, "This is my dream."
**[10:43] (Flashback) Natalia**
She hoped that, one day,
she'd be surrounded by happiness
**[10:47] (Flashback) Natalia**
and be able to laugh with you,
full of food and love.
**[10:53] (Flashback) Natalia**
You're going to make her
sad if you don't smile.
**[10:58] (Flashback) Pepesha**
But that's... not right...
**[11:01] (Flashback) Pepesha**
I'm not smiling here because I'm full of food.
**[11:08] (Flashback) Pepesha**
It's because Mama's with me.
**[11:11] (Flashback) Pepesha**
I should've told her that it was okay
if she wasn't very good at it...
**[11:14] (Flashback) Pepesha**
I should've told her that I still loved her...
**[11:28] Spirit**
*From that day until today,*
**[11:31] Spirit**
*I never forgot even for a moment...*
**[11:34] Spirit**
* I never forgot you or the*
* love that you gave me.*
**[11:39] Spirit**
* So that it would reach you*
* one day up in heaven,*
**[11:43] Spirit**
* I tried to spread gentle*
* love around the world...*
**[11:47] Spirit**
* And before I knew it, people*
* were calling me a hero.*
**[11:51] Spirit**
* But the source of my love has*
* never changed, not even once.*
**[11:56] Spirit**
*It was always... you.*
**[12:03] Spirit**
Did it reach you?
**[12:05] Spirit**
I really hope it reached you...
**[12:08] Spirit**
Everything that I've wanted
to tell you for so long.
**[12:12] Spirit**
I'm really bad at this last part...
**[12:18] Spirit**
But please let me say it in my own words...
**[12:23] Spirit**
I love you, Mama.
**[12:33] Letana**
Shy.

**[12:52] Tzveta**
I'm sorry, Pesha.
**[12:54] Tzveta**
I'm all right now.
**[12:57] Shy**
The sky...
**[12:58] Kufufu**
Ook?
**[12:59] Shy**
Huh?
**[13:01] Kufufu**
Ook, ook!
**[13:03] Tzveta**
I know it's a little late, Pesha,
but there's something I want to tell y—
**[13:07] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan!
**[13:11] Kufufu**
It's not over yet! You can't give up!
**[13:14] Kufufu**
I can still fight, too!
**[13:17] Tzveta**
Kufufu-san, it's okay.
**[13:21] Tzveta**
My dream is over.
**[13:24] Kufufu**
But at this rate, you're
gonna disappear, Tzveta-chan!
**[13:28] Spirit**
Huh?
**[13:30] Tzveta**
And that's fine.
**[13:32] Tzveta**
You should return to him.
**[13:36] Tzveta**
Anything else is pointless now.
**[13:42] Kufufu**
Okay...
**[13:43] Kufufu**
But... I'm not gonna say "bye-bye."
**[13:56] Spirit**
Mama... She just said you
were going to disappear...
**[14:02] Tzveta**
This space is my heart itself.
**[14:06] Tzveta**
My current body was created from my heart,
**[14:11] Tzveta**
so once this place crumbles,
my body will also disappear.
**[14:15] Spirit**
No... But why?!
**[14:17] Spirit**
We were finally able to see each other again.
**[14:22] Tzveta**
Thanks to you two, I was able
to awaken from my nightmare.
**[14:28] Tzveta**
That's why I want to leave this with you.
**[14:33] Tzveta**
The one who created us is the
child you all call "Stigma."
**[14:38] Tzveta**
His power is the power to make
others' dreams come true.
**[14:43] Spirit**
Make dreams come true?
**[14:46] Tzveta**
The things that people wish for
deep within their hearts...
**[14:50] Tzveta**
He has the power to give
them a form in reality.
**[14:54] Tzveta**
It was his power that
brought us together again.
**[15:00] Tzveta**
He took advantage of your
wish to see your mother again
**[15:07] Tzveta**
and created a version
of me meant to harm you.
**[15:10] Spirit**
But that's...
**[15:13] Shy**
Does that mean he made
Pepesha-san's dream come true?
**[15:16] Spirit**
If that's true,
**[15:18] Spirit**
what is Stigma planning to
do with his infinite power?
**[15:25] Tzveta**
He...
**[15:27] Tzveta**
strongly wished for a world without adults.
**[15:30] Tzveta**
A world for the children...
**[15:33] Tzveta**
My wish was similar to that.
**[15:38] Tzveta**
But he's unable to make his own
dreams come true with his powers.
**[15:44] Tzveta**
His powers are meaningless when he's alone.
**[15:47] Tzveta**
That's why he created friends.
**[15:51] Tzveta**
And that's us, Amarariruku.
**[15:55] Tzveta**
He gave us all powers rooted
within our hearts
**[16:01] Tzveta**
so that we could fight you
heroes on equal footing.
**[16:06] Tzveta**
That's all I know.
**[16:09] Tzveta**
I don't know what he plans to do next,
**[16:12] Tzveta**
or what exactly he intends
to do with the world.
**[16:16] Tzveta**
But I do know for a fact that he's
trying to destroy the current world
**[16:21] Tzveta**
as he warps one dream after another.
**[16:25] Tzveta**
So please... stop them!
**[16:30] Tzveta**
Don't let Stigma destroy this world!
**[16:35] Tzveta**
I didn't realize any of it.
**[16:37] Tzveta**
Not the fact that he had warped my heart,
**[16:41] Tzveta**
nor the fact that if I was
only looking at myself,
**[16:44] Tzveta**
I wouldn't be able to
communicate with anyone else.
**[16:49] Tzveta**
You there. What was your name again?
**[16:52] Shy**
I-It's Teru. Teru Momijiyama.
**[16:58] Tzveta**
Teru-san... Your nervousness
is written all over your face.
**[17:03] Tzveta**
But you know...
**[17:04] Tzveta**
You have a fiery heart that can overcome
that, and plenty of kindness, as well.
**[17:11] Tzveta**
After all, the fact that I was
able to bond with Pesha again
**[17:15] Tzveta**
is undoubtedly all thanks to you.
**[17:19] Tzveta**
Thank you, Teru-san.
**[17:21] Shy**
Oh, no! I just...
**[17:24] Tzveta**
And, Pesha...
**[17:27] Tzveta**
I want you to guide her.
**[17:29] Tzveta**
Tell the children everything
that you believe in.
**[17:34] Tzveta**
That's the one and only thing
we adults can do for the future.
**[17:41] Spirit**
Yes.
**[17:43] Tzveta**
I believe in you.
**[17:45] Tzveta**
I know you two will be
able to save the world.
**[17:49] Tzveta**
I'm counting on you, heroes.
**[17:53] Shy and Spirit**
Right!
**[17:58] Spirit**
Mama?!
**[17:59] Spirit**
No... Already?
**[18:01] Tzveta**
It's all right.
**[18:03] Tzveta**
Even if it was only through Stigma's will,
I committed one crime after another.
**[18:09] Tzveta**
It doesn't change the
fact that I hurt you two.
**[18:14] Tzveta**
But if you'll still call me "Mama" after
everything you've been through...
**[18:21] Tzveta**
Pesha, I have one last wish.
**[18:25] Spirit**
Huh?
**[18:30] Tzveta**
It was always a small
dream of mine to one day
**[18:33] Tzveta**
drink alcohol side by side with
you once you became an adult.
**[18:48] Spirit**
Me, too.
**[18:50] Tzveta**
Huh?
**[18:55] Tzveta**
Pesha, have you been eating properly?
**[18:59] Spirit**
Huh? Well, yeah.
**[19:01] Spirit**
I'd die if I didn't eat.
**[19:03] Tzveta**
I see. That's good.
**[19:06] Tzveta**
Try not to get sick, though.
**[19:08] Tzveta**
Be extra careful with your liver.
**[19:10] Spirit**
Right... I will.
**[19:15] Tzveta**
Now that we're actually talking like this,
**[19:18] Tzveta**
it's a bit embarrassing.
**[19:21] Spirit**
I was thinking the exact same thing.
**[19:24] Tzveta**
Is it hard being a hero?
**[19:26] Spirit**
Hmm... Well, I guess.
**[19:30] Spirit**
But I think it's really nice
that I get to save people.
**[19:34] Spirit**
It makes me really happy
that I can help people out.
**[19:38] Spirit**
I'm pretty sure I got that from you, Mama.
**[19:42] Tzveta**
You think so?
**[19:46] Tzveta**
Pesha, thank you.
**[19:48] Spirit**
Huh? For what?
**[19:51] Tzveta**
Thank you for being born to me.
**[19:56] Tzveta**
I'm so proud of you.
**[20:00] Spirit**
Mama...
**[20:03] Tzveta**
You're alive right now.
**[20:07] Tzveta**
That alone is enough of a reason
for me to have been alive.
**[20:11] Tzveta**
I was finally able to feel like
my life was worth something.
**[20:16] Spirit**
Yeah...
**[20:18] Tzveta**
I wish I could've told you
all this a long time ago.
**[20:25] Tzveta**
But just don't forget this...
**[20:28] Spirit**
What?
**[20:33] Letana**
I love you very much, Pesha.
**[20:38] Letana**
I love you more than anything
else in this world.
**[20:43] Pepesha**
Yeah...
**[20:46] Pepesha**
Yeah.
**[20:56] Spirit**
I love you, too.
**[21:05] Shy**
Pepesha-san.
**[21:07] Spirit**
It's so cruel.
**[21:09] Shy**
Huh?
**[21:10] Spirit**
It doesn't matter how many
times you go through it...
**[21:15] Spirit**
It's always hard to say
goodbye to someone you love.
**[21:19] Shy**
In the end... Letana-san looked really happy.
**[21:25] Shy**
I'm sure that's because she
was able to pass her feelings
**[21:30] Shy**
along to the future.
**[21:33] Shy**
And that's why we should keep moving
forward for whatever's next.
**[21:41] Spirit**
You're right.
**[21:43] Spirit**
We can't leave something this sad behind.
**[21:58] Shy**
Pepesha-san!
**[22:00] Spirit**
Huh? What?

***SIGN*** Episode 12
When I Cough,
It's the Two of Us
**[01:30] Child A**
Wow, it's Shy!
**[01:32] Child C**
You're Japan's hero, aren't you?
**[01:32] Shy**
Um, uh...
**[01:34] Child B**
What are you doing in Russia?
**[01:35] Child**
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
**[01:37] Child**
Shy!
**[01:40] Shy**
Hang on, please!
**[01:44] Natalia**
Pesha.
**[01:46] Natalia**
It looks like everyone
inside is all right, too.
**[01:49] Natalia**
Dr. Isaak is checking on them now.
**[01:52] Spirit**
Oh, that's great.
**[01:54] Natalia**
But you know...
**[01:56] Natalia**
I guess you really are a hero.
**[02:00] Spirit**
Having someone tell me that to my
face is actually sorta embarrassing.
**[02:03] Natalia**
Oh, please!
**[02:06] Natalia**
But I knew it...
**[02:08] Spirit**
Knew what?
**[02:10] Natalia**
I knew you'd make something
of yourself someday.
**[02:14] Spirit**
M-Me? Why would you think that?
**[02:17] Natalia**
Well... Because Lenya loved you very much.
**[02:25] Spirit**
Mama?
**[02:26] Natalia**
Oh, don't get the wrong idea, though.
**[02:29] Natalia**
It's not all thanks to her.
**[02:33] Natalia**
Lenya was someone I really looked up to.
**[02:37] Spirit**
What? This is the first time I'm hearing that.
**[02:39] Natalia**
Well, of course it is. It's the
first time I've ever said it.
**[02:43] Natalia**
Lenya never acted like a child,
even when she was one.
**[02:49] Natalia**
Even when something bad happened,
I never saw her cry or throw a fit.
**[02:57] Natalia**
I think that's just how her parents raised her.
**[03:03] Natalia**
Like, "Don't cause trouble for others.
Don't rely on others, either."
**[03:09] Natalia**
But to put it another way,
she did so much for others.
**[03:15] Natalia**
She was very devoted and never
expected anything in return.
**[03:17] Natalia**
I'm pretty sure that didn't
change once she became an adult.
**[03:22] Natalia**
There were some who mocked Lenya and
called her stupid because of that.
**[03:25] Natalia**
She went through so many hardships.
**[03:28] Natalia**
But even so, I...
**[03:32] Natalia**
I admired the fact that she was like a
hero who dedicated her life to others.
**[03:40] Natalia**
That's why, even now that you're a real hero,
**[03:43] Natalia**
you still carry her blood and
the love she gave to you.
**[03:48] Natalia**
When I really thought about it,
it just made perfect sense.
**[03:53] Natalia**
In my eyes, you and your
mother are both heroes.
**[03:57] Natalia**
Two generations' worth.
**[04:00] Spirit**
Natalia-san...
**[04:05] Shy**
P-Pepesha-san!
**[04:07] Spirit**
Oh, dear.
**[04:07] Shy**
S-Save me! Help!
**[04:11] Spirit**
Oh, my. Looks like our hero's in trouble.
**[04:14] Spirit**
Kids, wrap it up and head inside!
**[04:17] Children**
Okay!
**[04:22] Shy**
Y-You saved mwee...
**[04:25] Shrimpy**
*Teru? Teru!*
**[04:27] Shy**
Shrimpy-san?
**[04:29] Shrimpy**
*Thank goodness you're safe.*
**[04:31] Shrimpy**
* I couldn't get a hold of you*
* for a while, so I was worried.*
**[04:34] Shy**
I-I'm fine.
**[04:36] Shy**
I've... well... Pepesha-san and I were
able to take care of the situation.
**[04:42] Shrimpy**
* I see. Unilord just sent*
* reinforcements your way.*
**[04:46] Shy**
Huh?
**[04:50] Stardust**
I heard there was an emergency...
**[04:53] Stardust**
But it looks like it's been taken care of.
**[04:54] Spirit**
Stardust! Lady Black! You came to help us?
**[04:58] Stardust**
Yeah. Just before you got here,
**[05:02] Stardust**
we received a transmission from Unilord.
**[05:06] (Flashback) Unilord**
Just now, the governments
and heroes of all nations
**[05:10] (Flashback) Unilord**
have agreed to share information
and cooperate with each other.
**[05:15] (Flashback) Unilord**
Which means that the next
time Amarariruku appears,
**[05:18] (Flashback) Unilord**
the nations of the world will work
together to solve the problem.
**[05:22] Stardust**
While that was going on, we received
word that you were being attacked...
**[05:28] Stardust**
But I guess we weren't needed.
**[05:29] Spirit**
I'll personally fill Unilord
in on the details later.
**[05:34] Spirit**
I can't leave this place until
I know that everyone's safe.
**[05:38] Stardust**
I see. Is there anything else I can help with?
**[05:42] Spirit**
There is one thing.
**[05:45] Spirit**
Here.
**[05:46] Spirit**
This ring... It's one that
Amarariruku left behind.
**[05:50] Spirit**
Could you deliver this
to Unilord immediately?
**[05:54] Stardust**
I see. Got it.
**[05:57] Stardust**
Well, I'm gonna head back.
**[05:59] Stardust**
I'm a busy man, you know.
**[06:02] Shy**
U-Um!
**[06:05] Shy**
Th-Thank you for your guidance the other day!
**[06:09] Shy**
Because of that, I was able
to save a lot of people today.
**[06:13] Shy**
I've been meaning to tell you that for
a while, but kept missing my chance...
**[06:17] Shy**
So... I'm sorry.
**[06:24] Stardust**
Oh, it's you. The one I met on the spaceship.
**[06:29] Stardust**
Right, that did happen, didn't it?
**[06:32] Shy**
*He totally forgot about me...*
**[06:34] Stardust**
I didn't do anything you need to thank me for.
**[06:38] Stardust**
You just got stronger on your own.
**[06:42] Stardust**
Once you accomplish something,
it's not because of someone else.
**[06:47] Stardust**
Just like when you're unable to do
anything, it's not anyone else's fault.
**[06:53] Stardust**
So be proud of yourself.
**[06:55] Stardust**
When you're able to think that
you've truly saved someone,
**[06:59] Stardust**
that pride will change into your next power.
**[07:03] Stardust**
If a hero's back is always doubled over,
**[07:06] Stardust**
it'll make the person they saved
want to apologize, too.
**[07:09] Stardust**
Like, "I'm sorry for making you save me."
**[07:13] Stardust**
Well, I'm heading back now.
**[07:16] Stardust**
I'll leave the rest to you, Lady Black.
**[07:19] Lady**
Got it.
**[07:20] Lady**
I'll check to see if anyone's injured.
**[07:28] Lady**
Okay, Shy. Have you checked
to see if anyone's wounded?
**[07:31] Shy**
Oh, um...
**[07:33] Shy**
There are some who were hit by the
enemy's attack, so I'll lead you to them.
**[07:38] Lady**
What about you?
**[07:39] Shy**
Me?
**[07:42] Shy**
I'm fine! So please, take
a look at everyone else.
**[07:46] Lady**
I see.
**[07:48] Lady**
I like that look on your face now.
**[07:50] Lady**
Looks like you were able
to conquer a mountain.
**[07:57] Natalia**
You're leaving already?
**[07:58] Natalia**
You could at least spend a night here.
**[08:01] Pepesha**
We can't stay too long and be a burden.
**[08:04] Pepesha**
I'll come visit again.
**[08:06] Natalia**
I see. Well, do your best!
**[08:09] Isaak**
Shy, Spirit.
**[08:12] Isaak**
Thanks for saving us.
**[08:16] Natalia**
We're all looking out for you, Pesha.
**[08:20] Pepesha**
Thanks, Natalia-san.
**[08:29] Teru**
Amarariruku...
**[08:31] Teru**
I wonder what Stigma's really after.
**[08:35] Teru**
I feel like there's something
very important there.
**[08:40] Pepesha**
Even if we don't know what that is,
heroes like us need to be fully prepared.
**[08:45] Pepesha**
Okay, let's get going!
**[08:48] Teru**
Uh, s-sure!
**[08:50] Pepesha**
But before that...
**[08:52] Pepesha**
A bar that I go to all the time is nearby.
**[08:55] Teru**
Huh?! But you were just drinking
a whole bunch with Natalia-san.
**[08:58] Teru**
I'm actually surprised you're still standing...
**[09:01] Pepesha**
That was basically an apéritif!
**[09:05] Pepesha**
All right! I'm gonna drink!
I'm gonna drink to my heart's content!
**[09:09] Pepesha**
Until I can't drink anymore!
**[09:11] Teru**
*Amarariruku...*
**[09:13] Teru**
*The world inside people's hearts...*
**[09:14] Teru**
* Stigma's dream that he wants to see come true,*
* even if it means warping the dreams of others...*
**[09:21] Teru**
*I don't know what it is, but I'm a hero,*
**[09:26] Teru**
*and I was asked to stop them.*
**[09:31] Teru**
* And that probably doesn't mean*
* just beating them in a fight...*
**[09:37] Pepesha**
Teru-chan! I'm gonna leave you behind!
**[09:39] Teru**
Oh... I-I'll be right there!
**[09:44] Pepesha**
Are you gonna say I'm
drinking too much again?
**[09:46] Teru**
Well, you do.
**[09:48] Pepesha**
Huh?
**[09:52] Stigma**
Even if one's body disappears,
their heart remains in this world.
**[09:58] Stigma**
Hearts are eternal
**[10:00] Stigma**
and endlessly free.
**[10:03] Stigma**
That's why you don't need
to be sad, Kufufu-san.
**[10:07] Stigma**
You, Tzveta-chan, me, everyone...
**[10:14] Stigma**
In the end, we'll all become one.
**[10:23] Teru and Pepesha**
Shy.

Good morning, Momijiyama-san!
**[10:35] Teru**
Koishikawa-san...
**[10:37] Teru**
Good morning.
**[10:41] Iko**
You know that matryoshka doll
you brought back for me?
**[10:45] ---**
My little brother loves it!
**[10:47] Iko**
We were just talking about the best
way to display it this morning.
**[10:52] Teru**
I see...
**[10:54] Iko**
Um... You seem a bit down.
**[10:58] Iko**
You just got back to Japan.
I guess you're still exhausted.
**[11:02] Teru**
Well... a lot did happen, but I'll be fine.
**[11:07] Teru**
I am a hero, after all.
**[11:10] Iko**

M-Momijiyama-san?!

Yes. She seems to have a cold.
**[11:24] Iko**
She'll be fine! I'm going to stay by her side.
**[11:29] Iko**
Right. Goodbye.
**[11:34] Iko**
Momijiyama-san, I called the school.
**[11:37] Iko**
Now, let's make sure you
get plenty of rest today!
**[11:40] Iko**
I'll stay with you for a little while, at least.
**[11:42] Teru**
What? But I feel bad...
**[11:45] Teru**
You can go to school...
and don't worry about me...
**[11:49] Iko**
What are you talking about?
You can barely stay upright.
**[11:52] Iko**
I'll at least walk you back home.
**[11:55] Teru**
But...
**[11:58] Teru**
U-Um, Koishikawa-san, what exactly is going on?
**[12:02] Iko**
Isn't this easier for you?
**[12:04] Iko**
Koishikawa Taxi is taking off! JK!
**[12:08] Iko**
Er, which way was your house again?
**[12:11] Teru**
Th-That way...
**[12:12] Iko**
Go!

* I-I can't believe I'm getting*

**[12:17] Teru**
*And by someone my age, no less...*
**[12:19] Teru**
*I-I'm gonna die.*
**[12:23] Iko**
Anyway, I guess even you catch colds, huh?
**[12:26] Teru**
Huh? W-Well, of course. I am human.
**[12:29] Iko**
I just felt like maybe
heroes wouldn't get sick.
**[12:33] Iko**
Isn't that weird? It's such a normal thing.
**[12:39] Teru**
* A normal hero wouldn't let anyone*
* see them looking this lame...*
**[12:43] Teru**
*I'm so sorry.*
**[12:47] Teru**
*But I wonder why...*
**[12:50] Teru**
*I feel so at ease right now.*
**[12:58] Iko**
We made it to your house, Momijiyama-san!
**[13:01] Teru**
Th-Thank you very much.
**[13:04] Iko**
Whoa! A-Are you okay?!
**[13:07] Teru**
I'm sorry...
**[13:12] Iko**
Momijiyama-san, is there anyone
here who can watch over you?
**[13:16] Teru**
Uh, no... Right now, it'd be just Shrimpy-san.
**[13:21] Iko**
I see...
**[13:23] Iko**
In that case, I'll go buy
you some stuff nearby.
**[13:26] Iko**
Go ahead and get changed and lie down.
**[13:28] Teru**
Oh, no! That's okay!
**[13:30] Teru**
You don't need to do all that...
**[13:33] Iko**
I swear... You always do that!
**[13:36] Iko**
You try to handle too much on your own!
**[13:38] Iko**
It's fine, really. Just get some rest.
**[13:40] Teru**
O-Okay...
**[13:46] Teru**
*I have been fighting quite a bit lately...*
**[13:51] Teru**
* Maybe my body and heart*
* just couldn't keep up.*
**[13:55] Teru**
* Come to think of it, my body did get pretty*
* cold during that fight... But, I mean...*
**[14:02] Teru**
*How long has it been since I caught a cold?*
**[14:07] Shirmpy**
Are you all right?
**[14:08] Shirmpy**
Let me know if there's
anything I can do for you.
**[14:10] Teru**
Could you... hang up my uniform?
**[14:14] Shirmpy**
Got it.
**[14:18] Shirmpy**
There.
**[14:20] Teru**
*Why do I feel so lonely whenever I get sick?*
**[14:24] Teru**
*I can't hear anything, and my body's all numb.*
**[14:30] Teru**
*Isn't there anyone around?*
**[14:32] Teru**
*I just want someone to talk to me...*
**[14:39] (Flashback) Older Sister**
Are you okay?
**[14:47] (Flashback) Older Sister**
Do you think you can eat yet?
**[14:54] (Flashback) Teru**
Maybe a little...
**[14:56] (Flashback) Older Sister**
I made you some rice porridge.
Try eating that.
**[14:59] (Flashback) Older Sister**
Once you eat and get some nutrients
in you, you'll feel better in no time.
**[15:05] (Flashback) Older Sister**
Do you not want to eat yet?
**[15:07] (Flashback) Teru**
Uh, u-um...
**[15:09] (Flashback) Teru**
It's... really hard to move my hands...
**[15:14] (Flashback) Older Sister**
Oh, for goodness' sake, Teru.
**[15:17] (Flashback) Older Sister**
You're such a baby.
**[15:22] (Flashback) Older Sister**
Come on, you need to eat.
I'll even blow on it to cool it down.
**[15:29] (Flashback) Teru**
Hey, could you do that other
thing you always do for me, too?
**[15:34] (Flashback) Older Sister**
What other thing?
**[15:36] (Flashback) Teru**
When you rub my back...
**[15:40] Teru**
Could you do that for me, Onee-chan?
**[15:46] Teru**
I-I-I-I'm so sorry!
**[15:48] Teru**
I-I was totally talking in my sleep!
**[15:50] Teru**
Um, please don't get the wrong idea!
Just forget what I said! Forget all of it!
**[15:54] Iko**
Momijiyama-san...
**[15:56] Iko**
Do you want me to rub your back?
**[15:58] Teru**
Huh?!
**[16:00] Iko**
Sure! I'll totally do that for you!
Here, give me your back!
**[16:00] Teru**
Hey, wait—
**[16:03] Teru**
No, I—
**[16:03] Iko**
Just leave it to me!
**[16:11] Iko**
I brought you some medicine and water.
**[16:14] Teru**
Th-Thank you very much...
**[16:21] Iko**
I also bought some head-cooling pads,
masks, gelatin, and sports drinks.
**[16:29] Teru**
You're like an older sister, Koishikawa-san.
**[16:32] Iko**
Well, I do have a little brother!
**[16:35] Iko**
I'm used to taking care of others!
**[16:37] Iko**
By the way, about what you were saying
earlier... You have an older sister?
**[16:45] Teru**
Yes...
**[16:46] Teru**
I have a sister who's a bit older than me.
**[16:49] Teru**
Though she died some years ago...
**[16:53] Iko**
Huh?
**[16:54] Iko**
I-I'm so sorry. I had no idea.
I figured she was still...
**[16:59] Teru**
Oh, please don't worry about that.
**[17:02] Teru**
My parents weren't home very much,
**[17:06] Teru**
so my sister was like a parent to me.
**[17:10] Teru**
So that's why I was dreaming
about the past and ended up
**[17:13] Teru**
saying something like that in my sleep...
**[17:17] Iko**
I see.
**[17:19] Teru**
I always seem to embarrass myself
in front of you, Koishikawa-san.
**[17:24] Iko**
Really? I've never thought
of it as embarrassing.
**[17:28] Teru**
Oh, please.
**[17:31] Iko**
Actually, right now,
**[17:34] Iko**
I feel a bit at ease right now
because I'm with you.
**[17:38] Iko**
Now that I know heroes
are normal people, too.
**[17:42] Teru**
Normal people?
**[17:45] Iko**
You get hurt normally, get sick normally,
**[17:49] Iko**
have a normal family,
and attend middle school normally.
**[17:54] Iko**
Up until now, you felt kinda out of reach...
**[17:58] Iko**
But you're really just a normal girl like me.
**[18:02] Iko**
And that's why I respect you even more...
**[18:05] Iko**
and the fact that you fight.
**[18:08] Teru**
Oh, no. I...
**[18:10] Iko**
Anyway!
**[18:12] Iko**
Well, I guess I'll get going.
**[18:14] Iko**
I don't want to stay too long and bother you.
**[18:16] Iko**
Make sure you eat this, okay?
**[18:18] Teru**
O-Okay.
**[18:20] Teru**
Thank you for everything
today, Koishikawa-san.
**[18:23] Iko**
Bye-bye.
**[18:26] Teru**
*Normal, huh?*
**[18:29] Iko**
Oh, yeah!
**[18:32] Iko**
Starting today, I'm going
to call you "Teru-chan."
**[18:37] Iko**
And you can call me "Iko," too.
**[18:40] Iko**
See you tomorrow!
**[18:43] Teru**
Oh... Okay.
**[18:47] Teru**
See you tomorrow...
**[18:57] Iko**
I actually said it.
**[19:10] Teru**
*I've always wanted to be normal.*
**[19:15] Teru**
*Not because I'm a hero...*
**[19:23] Teru**
* But being able to talk in*
* front of people normally...*
**[19:28] Teru**
* Being able to look people*
* in the eye normally...*
**[19:33] Teru**
* Being able to be the me*
* that I like normally...*
**[19:38] Teru**
* Being able to call my friends*
* by their names normally...*
**[19:44] Teru**
*I'm sure this step forward*
**[19:47] Teru**
*is meaningless for a hero.*
**[19:51] Teru**
*But... even so...*
**[19:54] Teru**
*For someone normal like me...*
**[19:59] Teru**
G...
**[20:02] Teru**
Good morning, I-Iko-san!
**[20:07] Teru**
*It's a very normal yet big step forward.*
**[20:14] Iko**
Morning, Teru-chan!
**[20:30] Kufufu**
I wonder where you could be...
**[20:35] Kufufu**
Oh, where could you be?
**[20:36] Doki**
Hey, you!
**[20:38] Doki**
Where the hell did Stigma go?!
**[20:41] Doki**
You know, don't you?!
**[20:43] Kufufu**
"You"? My name is Kufufu-san.
**[20:48] Doki**
Like I care about that! Die already.
**[20:50] Doki**
I'm asking you where he went.
**[20:52] Kufufu**
I dunno! He went somewhere.
**[20:55] Doki**
He went somewhere?! Does that mean
he's planning to do something?!
**[20:59] Kufufu**
Dunno. As you can see,
I'm very busy fishing right now.
**[21:05] Doki**
You moron! You can't catch anything here!
**[21:08] Kufufu**
That's not true.
**[21:11] Kufufu**
See?
**[21:15] Doki**
The hell is that?!
**[21:16] Kufufu**
I dunno. Probably a fishie.
**[21:20] Kufufu**
I don't want it.
**[21:22] Doki**
Are you looking for something?
**[21:26] Kufufu**
Well, you see...
**[21:30] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan hasn't come home yet.
**[21:33] Kufufu**
I'm sure she's hiding somewhere down
there, so I'm gonna fish her up.
**[21:38] Doki**
Are you stupid? Tzveta
disappeared forever ago!
**[21:47] Kufufu**
Again, I'm Kufufu-san.
**[21:50] Doki**
That hurt! I'll kill you!
**[21:53] Kufufu**
Then do it. Not that I'd die.
**[21:56] Doki**
Okay, fine! I will kill you!
**[22:04] Inori**
Stop that.
**[22:07] Inori**
No one wants to fight.
**[22:10] Inori**
You must love thy neighbor.
**[22:13] Inori**
Say a prayer within your hearts!
**[22:17] Inori**
Behold! Heaven!
**[22:24] Kufufu**
Huh?
**[22:25] Inori**
Our master has given us
such a wonderful world!
**[22:30] Doki**
Huh?!
**[22:32] Inori**
By sharing this world with all of humanity,
we will be able to attain true tranquility.
**[22:41] Doki**
Hey, you! Do you know where Stigma is?!
**[22:45] Inori**
Why, yes. Of course.
**[22:47] Inori**
Our master is currently preparing...
**[22:50] Inori**
Preparing to save this world.
**[22:58] Stigma**
When it comes to dreaming...
**[23:00] Stigma**
It's a right that everyone
in the world has equally.
**[23:05] Stigma**
But no one dreams the same dreams.
**[23:08] Stigma**
If everyone was able to
dream the same dream...
**[23:13] Stigma**
That would be such a happy thing.
**[23:19] Stigma**
Now, let us sow the seeds...
**[23:23] Stigma**
To create a world that will bear fruit.
**[23:28] Stigma**
It'll probably take a while
longer for the night to sleep...
**[23:37] Stigma**
Just wait for me.

**[01:33] Shy**
It's been a while.
**[01:35] Shy**
Do you remember us?
**[01:41] Shy**
Around the middle of the 21st century,
**[01:44] Shy**
war had disappeared from the
small circle floating in the darkness.
**[01:55] Shy**
People with superhuman strength
suddenly appeared all around the world,
**[01:59] Shy**
wished for peace, and worked really hard!
**[02:02] Shy**
But incidents continue to happen every day,
**[02:06] Shy**
so people still continuously
call out for them.
**[02:10] Shy**
That's why the people dubbed them...
**[02:18] Shy**
"heroes."
**[02:20] Teru**
I'm off!
**[02:21] Shrimpy**
Teru.
**[02:24] Shrimpy**

way back from your jog?
**[02:27] Teru**
O-Okay...

**[02:57] Piltz**
The damage is more extensive than we thought.
**[03:00] Piltz**
We still need a lot more
money for relief supplies.
**[03:04] Piltz**
Couldn't you just gather some from
your friends? Just a billion or so.
**[03:10] Piltz**
I'm just kidding.
**[03:12] Piltz**
Yes. This country doesn't have a hero yet,

And here's another mistake!
**[12:40] (Flashback) Asuka**
Oh... You're right.
**[12:42] (Flashback) Natsukawa**
And didn't I just tell you to be more careful?
**[12:46] (Flashback) Natsukawa**
You haven't seemed motivated to work lately.
**[12:51] (Flashback) Natsukawa**
All right.
**[12:52] (Flashback) Natsukawa**
I'm going to have you think up an
article from scratch this time.
**[12:56] (Flashback) Asuka**
What?!
**[13:02] Asuka**
* Something... Something*
* to write my article on...*
**[13:06] Asuka**
*I can't think of anything.*
**[13:09] Asuka**
* This isn't good. I'm in real*
* trouble if this keeps up.*
**[13:12] Asuka**
*Now I wanna go home to Gramma...*
**[13:17] (Flashback) Asuka**
No, this ain't it! I'm being negative!
**[13:19] (Flashback) Asuka**
If I don't look forward, I won't find anything!
**[13:22] (Flashback) Asuka**
I guess the people above me physically
went out to look for stuff.
**[13:26] (Flashback) Asuka**
So walk, walk, walk.
**[13:34] (Flashback) Asuka**
There's nothing.
**[13:36] Asuka**
* Come to think of it, the last time I told*
* them something I wanted to write about,*
**[13:40] Asuka**
*I'm pretty sure I got chewed out...*
**[13:43] Asuka**
*No wonder I'm not motivated at all.*
**[13:47] Asuka**
*Maybe I'll just quit this job...*
**[13:51] Asuka**
*I'm not cut out for it.*
**[13:52] (Flashback) Girl**
Wait! Wait!
**[13:58] (Flashback) Shy**
Be more careful when playing, okay?
**[14:00] (Flashback) Driver**
A-Are you okay?!
**[14:02] (Flashback) Shy**
She doesn't seem to be hurt.
**[14:04] (Flashback) Girl**
Thank you... um...
**[14:07] (Flashback) Girl**
Who are you again?
**[14:09] (Flashback) Shy**
Huh? M-Me?
**[14:13] (Flashback) Shy**
U-Um...
**[14:15] (Flashback) Shy**
I'm Shy.
**[14:16] (Flashback) Shy**
I'm a hero in Japan...
**[14:19] (Flashback) Shy**
I'm Shy!
**[14:23] (Flashback) Asuka**
A hero...
**[14:26] (Flashback) Asuka**
H-Hey! Excuse me!
**[14:30] (Flashback) Asuka**
Something insane to write
about just fell onto my lap!
**[14:36] Asuka**
So...
**[14:38] Asuka**
I sent in a request to interview you!
**[14:40] Asuka**
My name is Tojiko Asuka!
**[14:43] Asuka**
Thank you so much for kindly
accepting the offer!
**[14:45] Shy**
R-Right...
**[14:48] Shy**
Shrimpy-san's the one who accepted, though...
**[14:51] Asuka**
You can order anything you'd like! It's on me!
**[14:54] Shy**
A-Anything?
**[14:57] Asuka**
*This is the opportunity of the century!*
**[15:00] Asuka**
* Though I don't understand*
* heroes in the least.*
**[15:03] Asuka**
*If I interview this weird girl,*
**[15:05] Asuka**
*I'll be able to write an article!*
**[15:08] Asuka**
Now, then...
**[15:09] Asuka**
Shy-san, you're Japan's hero, right?
**[15:12] Shy**
Yes...
**[15:14] Asuka**
I hear you save countless people every day!
**[15:17] Shy**
Um... Well, I am a hero...
**[15:21] Shy**
But...
**[15:23] Shy**
I'm really shy, so I mess up all the time...
**[15:27] Shy**
So it's not like I can save everyone.
**[15:30] Shy**
Rather, I think there are more times
when I'm the one being saved...
**[15:37] Shy**
I've still got a long way to go as a hero.
**[15:41] Asuka**
Oh, I see.
**[15:43] Asuka**
But you recently saved a child
in the blink of an eye, didn't you?
**[15:46] Shy**
Well, that was more... I was lucky...
**[15:52] Shy**
I just happened to be there...
**[15:54] Waitress**
Excuse me. Are you ready to order?
**[15:56] Asuka**
Oh, I'll have iced tea.
**[15:59] Asuka**
And you, Shy-san?
**[16:00] Shy**
U-Um...
**[16:02] Shy**
I'd like a cream soda, please...
**[16:05] Waitress**
Coming right up.
**[16:07] Asuka**
*She's tough...*
**[16:10] Asuka**
*I'm gonna have to try a bit harder.*
**[16:13] Asuka**
What's your true identity?
**[16:14] Asuka**
Some say that you're from Mars!
**[16:16] Shy**
M-Mars?!
**[16:18] Shy**
I'm an Earthling. A very ordinary one...
**[16:21] Shy**
I don't think I can say much else...
**[16:23] Asuka**
I hear that you lift two-ton
boulders daily for training!
**[16:27] Shy**
Who would even say that?!
**[16:32] Asuka**
*Well, shoot...*
**[16:34] Asuka**
*She only says what normal people would say...*
**[16:39] Asuka**
* I need something more impactful*
* if I'm gonna write about it.*
**[16:45] Waitress**
Thank you for waiting.
**[16:46] Waitress**
Here's your iced tea and cream soda.
**[16:53] Asuka**
*What am I gonna do?*
**[17:02] Asuka**
So you like sweets.
**[17:05] Shy**
Oh, yes. Because they taste good...
**[17:08] Asuka**
Me, too.
**[17:10] Asuka**
I guess we're not all that different.
**[17:13] Asuka**
*Hm? You're not all that different...*
**[17:16] Asuka**
*Even though you're a hero?*
**[17:18] Shy**
So, Asuka-san... Why did
you become a reporter?
**[17:23] Asuka**
Me?!
**[17:24] Shy**
Yes...
**[17:26] Shy**
Um... I just figured it might get
boring if I did all the talking.
**[17:31] Asuka**
Well, I mean, this is an interview, so...
**[17:35] Asuka**
Hmm... Me?
**[17:38] Asuka**
I can't really remember.
**[17:40] Asuka**
I think I just felt like it.
**[17:43] Shy**
Oh, really?
**[17:46] Shy**
The cover of that planner looks like
it's been taken care of very well.
**[17:55] (Flashback) Grandma**
You're so good at writin', Tojiko.
**[17:58] (Flashback) Grandma**
I bet yer gon be a great
reporter in the future!
**[18:03] Asuka**
Oh, hey. I think I remember now.
**[18:05] Asuka**
I wrote a kids' newspaper when I was little.
**[18:09] Asuka**
I think Gramma really liked
it and praised me for it.
**[18:13] Asuka**
And since she said I'd be a reporter,
**[18:16] Asuka**
I think I studied really hard to be one...
**[18:21] Asuka**
And before I knew it, I was
working at my current company.
**[18:25] Asuka**
Gramma's the one who gave me this
planner when I joined the company.
**[18:29] Asuka**
I remember now.
**[18:32] Asuka**
Though right now, I'm just a failure of
an adult who gets yelled at all the time.
**[18:35] Shy**
That's not true!
**[18:38] Shy**
You're out here doing interviews
**[18:41] Shy**
and delivering the fun things
people want to know about each day.
**[18:46] Shy**
Being useful to someone
and seeing them happy...
**[18:49] Shy**
In that sense, Asuka-san,
**[18:51] Shy**
I think you're also a hero to someone.
**[18:56] Asuka**
*A hero to someone...*
**[18:59] Asuka**
You know...
**[19:00] Asuka**
You're not really that heroic, are you?
**[19:04] Shy**
Huh?!
**[19:05] Asuka**
You said you're shy, but you seem
to be talking to me just fine.
**[19:09] Shy**
Huh?! U-Um... W-Was I boring?
**[19:13] Shy**
Should I try a little harder?
**[19:15] Asuka**
Nah, you're fine as the
larger-than-life Shy-san.
**[19:19] Asuka**
Could I ask you a few more questions?
**[19:22] Shy**
Um... sure.
**[19:24] Asuka**
Why did you become a hero?
**[19:25] Asuka**
Could you tell me the meaning
behind your costume?

It's raining really hard.
**[01:35] Inuyama**
Yeah.
**[01:37] Nekogawa**
Let's hurry home.
**[01:40] Teru**
*It's raining... And I forgot my umbrella.*
**[01:45] Teru**
*I wonder if it'll stop in an hour or two.*
**[01:53] Teru**
Hello, Shrimpy-san?
**[01:55] Teru**
I have a favor to ask...
**[01:57] Teru**
This rain isn't letting up.
Could you bring me an umbrella?
**[02:05] Teru**
*Shrimpy-san?*

* Iko-san's in a club now, so I won't*

* Yay! I can enjoy the silence of the library*

* Huh? I wonder why the*

**[02:47] Beni**
Rain.
**[02:48] Beni**
Tears of sadness.
**[02:55] Beni**
Blood-soaked rumors...
**[02:59] Beni**
My right eye aches...
**[03:21] Teru**
U-Um, can I help you?
**[03:24] Beni**
Oh, well, this is rare.
**[03:27] Beni**
I have a visitor.
**[03:29] Beni**
I wonder if the rain summoned you.
**[03:32] Beni**
Just like two droplets of rain
coming together and becoming one...
**[03:36] Teru**
R-Right...
**[03:40] Beni**
I'm Beni Hanawa. I'm a
third-year in the literature club.

***SIGN*** Recite as in sing?
**[03:54] Beni**
Wrong nuance!
***SIGN*** Recite as in poems!
**[03:57] Beni**
What's your name?
**[04:00] Teru**
I-I'm Momijiyama, and I'm a second-year...
**[04:03] Beni**
Ah...
**[04:06] Beni**
Momijiyama-san, I welcome
you to the literature club.
**[04:09] Beni**
It's a pleasure to have you.
**[04:11] Teru**
Huh?
**[04:12] Teru**
No, I, um... just came here to study...
**[04:16] Beni**
Do you like poetry?
**[04:19] Beni**
The world of poetry is very deep.
**[04:22] Beni**
Even a few words have the
power to move one's heart.
**[04:23] Teru**
*Uh, could it be that...*
**[04:25] Beni**
That's the kind of magic they possess.
**[04:27] Teru**
* she's the reason why the library was*
* so empty, even right before our tests?*
**[04:30] Beni**
Everyone is a poet at heart.
**[04:34] Teru**
I-I'm sorry! If y-you'll excuse me!
**[04:38] Beni**
W-Wait! Okay, I understand.
**[04:40] Beni**
You don't have to join the
club, but I have a request—
**[04:47] Teru**
That startled me.
I guess it was just thunder...
**[04:52] Beni**
H-Help me...
**[04:59] Beni**
I-It's lonely being all by yourself, you know?
**[05:02] Beni**
And yet everyone went off somewhere...
**[05:05] Beni**
and thunder is scary.
**[05:12] Teru**
U-Um... Where are the other club members?
**[05:15] Beni**
I'm the only member of the literature club...
**[05:18] Beni**
Everyone's so mean!
**[05:20] Beni**
I just want them to know
how wonderful poems are,
**[05:23] Beni**
and they just disappeared
on me, like you tried to do!
**[05:27] Teru**
Um... So what is this request?
**[05:30] Beni**
Oh, right!
**[05:33] Beni**
Have you ever heard of...
**[05:38] Beni**
the Seven Wonders of
Tanpopo First Middle School?
**[05:42] Beni**
First, there's Ichiro-kun in the bathroom.
**[05:46] Beni**
Second, the giant face on the gymnasium.
**[05:51] Beni**
Third, the locked storage
room under the stairs.
***SIGN*** Do not open!!
**[05:56] Beni**
Fourth, the listening Beethoven.
**[06:00] Beni**
Fifth, the stain shaped like
a person behind the school.
**[06:05] Beni**
Sixth, the shadow of a girl who
disappeared from the school grounds.
**[06:14] Beni**
And the seventh...
**[06:17] Beni**
The Bloody Book in the library.
**[06:20] Beni**
They're all unlikely to be true...
**[06:24] Beni**
But apparently, the seventh
one really exists.
**[06:28] Beni**
Which means that this bloody book
exists somewhere in this room!
**[06:33] Teru**
R-Really?
***SIGN*** Loves stories
like this
**[06:37] Beni**
I always look for it on rainy days.
**[06:41] Beni**
Will you help me look for it?
**[06:43] Teru**
S-Sure...
**[06:46] Teru**
But why are you interested in that
if you're in the literature club?
**[06:51] Beni**
Well, it's interesting, isn't it?
**[06:53] Beni**
If there's a book, I want to read it.
**[06:57] Beni**
Isn't that what it means to
be in the literature club?
**[07:02] Teru**
A-All right...
**[07:04] Teru**
Let's look for it together.
**[07:23] Teru**
I don't see it anywhere.
**[07:25] Teru**
We've looked quite a bit, too.
**[07:27] Beni**
Yes. Perhaps it was all for naught again.
**[07:31] Teru**
Have you looked for this book
many times before, Senpai?
**[07:35] Beni**
Yes, and I've searched as far
as I can reach each time.
**[07:41] Teru**
I wonder if it's just a rumor after all.
**[07:44] Teru**
A bloody book that's included
in the Seven Wonders...
**[07:47] Beni**
That's impossible.
**[07:50] Beni**
Even my senpai said it...
**[07:53] Beni**
If any of them exist, it's the Bloody Book.
**[08:00] Teru**
The Bloody Book... Do you
know what kind of book it is?
**[08:04] Beni**
Who knows? Maybe it brings
misfortune to any who read it...
**[08:08] Beni**
Or perhaps it covers them in blood.
**[08:11] Beni**
Or...
**[08:13] Teru**
Are you going to read it if you find it?
**[08:16] Beni**
But of course.
**[08:18] Beni**
No matter what may happen to me as a result.
**[08:23] Beni**
That's the fate that book led me to.
**[08:26] Beni**
I cannot fight it.
**[08:30] Teru**
You must really love books.
**[08:32] Beni**
Can you tell?!
**[08:34] Beni**
In that case!
**[08:34] Beni**
You'll be the club president
next year, Momijiyama-san!
**[08:37] Teru**
I-I-I-I won't be joining
the literature club, though!
**[08:40] Beni**
Oh, don't be like that. Come on, please!
**[08:43] Beni**
If this club ends with me,
I won't be able to rest in peace!
**[08:46] Beni**
I'll end up as a ghost bound
to this place! I just know it!
**[08:49] Teru**
I-I mean... I don't know what to tell you...
**[08:58] Teru**
Wait...
**[09:00] Teru**
Did you say you'd searched as
far as you could reach earlier?
**[09:04] Beni**
Huh? Yes, I did...
**[09:11] Teru**
I b-borrowed this!
**[09:13] Teru**
If you've searched as far as you can reach,
**[09:16] Teru**
we just have to search the places
that are beyond your reach!
**[09:19] Beni**
Honestly, I feel like you're
the real wonder here...
**[09:22] Beni**
Why are you doing all this
for someone you just met?
**[09:26] Teru**
I love ghost stories like this...
and helping people out, too!
**[09:33] Teru**
I'll hold the bottom. Go ahead!
**[09:36] Beni**
Don't shake it, okay?
**[09:50] Beni**
It's here... I found it!
**[09:52] Teru**
No way! Really?!
**[09:56] Beni**
This is the...
**[09:58] Beni**
Huh?!

***SIGN*** Shock
**[10:13] Teru**

Huh?
***SIGN*** Tanpopo First
Middle School Literature Club
**[10:26] Teru**

**[10:31] Beni**
Apparently, *The Bloody Book*
is the club's magazine
**[10:34] Beni**
that the graduating students would hide
each year as part of the Seven Wonders.
**[10:42] Beni**
No wonder my senpai thought
the Seven Wonders were true.
**[10:47] Beni**
I'm sorry. Are you disappointed?
**[10:49] Teru**
N-No!
**[10:51] Beni**
But I'm so glad I found it.
**[10:56] Beni**
The tradition was on the
verge of disappearing.
**[11:06] Teru**
The rain...
**[11:08] Beni**
Looks like it stopped.
**[11:12] Beni**
Thanks for everything today, Momijiyama-san.
**[11:15] Beni**
Now I have no regrets.
**[11:18] Teru**
Oh, no problem! I had fun, too!
**[11:24] Teru**
By the way...
**[11:26] Teru**
Does this mean the literature club
came up with the Seven Wonders?
**[11:32] Beni**
No.
**[11:34] Beni**
The Seven Wonders already existed,
and I guess they took advantage of it.
**[11:38] Teru**
Huh...
**[11:40] Iko**
Teru-chan!
**[11:41] Iko**
You heading home now?
**[11:43] Teru**
Iko-san! Are you done with your club?
**[11:46] Iko**
Yup. Were you studying or something?
**[11:49] Teru**
No, Senpai and I were...
**[11:52] Teru**
H-Huh? She was just here...
**[11:58] Iko**
Were you with someone?
**[12:00] Teru**
I was looking for a book with a
senpai in the literature club...
**[12:05] Iko**
Huh, that's strange.
**[12:08] Iko**
I heard that the literature
club had no members,
**[12:12] Iko**
so it was disbanded.
**[12:15] Teru**
Huh?
**[12:17] Teru**
But... I...
**[12:29] Beni**
* If this club ends with me,*
* I won't be able to rest in peace!*
**[12:35] Beni**
* Sixth, the shadow of a girl who*
* disappeared from the school grounds.*
**[12:43] Beni**
*Now I have no regrets.*
**[12:50] Teru**
* I wonder if the Hanawa-senpai*
* I saw was just a daydream...*
**[12:56] Teru**
* Or did the ghost of a literature club*
* member who died with regrets*
**[13:00] Teru**
*end up finally finding peace with my help?*
**[13:05] Teru**
*I don't think anyone knows the actual truth.*
**[13:10] Teru**
*But even so...*
**[13:12] Teru**
I wonder if I was actually able to save her.
**[13:16] Iko**
Teru-chan? Hello?
**[13:20] Teru**
*The next day...*
**[13:23] Beni**
The literature club...
**[13:25] Beni**
was absorbed into the
newspaper club last year.
**[13:28] Beni**
I totally forgot.
**[13:31] Teru**
*I ended up running into her at school.*
**[13:38] Teru**
Shy.

**[13:46] Iko**
Teru-chan, did you hear?
**[13:48] Iko**
Apparently, there've been a lot of
purse-snatchings around here lately.
**[13:51] Teru**
Oh, yes. I heard that on the news.
**[13:54] Teru**
They said they haven't found the culprit yet,
**[13:57] Teru**
so I have been a little concerned about it.
**[13:59] Iko**
I hope they find them soon.
**[14:00] Employee**
Thank you very much.
**[14:02] Teru**
D-Do you think I should
do something about it?
**[14:06] Iko**
Is this really a job for you, though?
**[14:08] Iko**
I think it's something the
police should handle...
**[14:11] Iko**
Anyway, where should we go next?
**[14:13] Teru**
* A purse snatcher... I wonder*

**[14:17] Iko**
Why don't we just walk toward the station?
**[14:21] Iko**
I think there's a karaoke place over there.
**[14:23] Iko**
What do you sing at karaoke, Teru-chan?
**[14:25] Teru**
I-I don't really sing...
**[14:33] Ai**
Welp, now I've done it.
**[14:35] Teru**
Are you all right? Here, let me help you.
**[14:38] Ai**
Oh, dear. Thank you.
**[14:42] Ai**
I'm experiencing so many firsts...
**[14:47] Ai**
Sorry for the trouble.

Thanks for helping me out.

**[15:13] Ai**
I just came to this town today,
so my head's just been spinnin'.
**[15:18] Ai**
Thank you for showing me the way.
You're both lifesavers.
**[15:22] Teru**
Oh, it's nothing! We were heading
to the station ourselves.
**[15:26] Iko**
You're from Kansai, aren't you?
What brings you here?
**[15:31] Ai**
Well...
**[15:33] Ai**
I guess you could call
this a vacation... maybe.
**[15:36] Teru**
A vacation?
**[15:37] Iko**
Pretty rare for anyone to
come here on vacation.
**[15:41] Ai**
Oh right. So, um... what are your names?
**[15:47] Iko**
Oh, I'm Iko Koishikawa.
**[15:50] Iko**
And this is Teru Momijiyama-chan.
**[15:53] Ai**
Iko-san, Teru-san, what're you
headin' to the station for?
**[15:58] Iko**
I figured we could do some karaoke.
**[16:00] Teru**
*Wait, we're really going to karaoke?*
**[16:03] Ai**
Karaoke...
**[16:05] Ai**
What's this "caraokey" you speak of?
**[16:08] Iko and Teru**
Huh?
**[16:10] Iko**
Um, you know... a place
where you sing with people,
**[16:13] Iko**
and put songs in and they start playing...
**[16:16] Ai**
Ah! Well, that certainly
sounds fun. I'm jealous.
**[16:20] Teru**
I-I'd prefer somewhere other than karaoke...
**[16:25] Iko**
Aw, really? That's too bad.
**[16:28] Iko**
Then did you want to go a game center
or check out a department store?
**[16:32] Ai**
Oh, "geimu senter" sure is an odd name.
**[16:36] Ai**
What do you do there?
**[16:39] Iko**
A-Ai-san, are you, by any chance...
**[16:43] Iko**
actually a really rich girl?!
**[16:46] Iko**
Wow, that's amazing!
**[16:48] Teru**
Iko-san?!
**[16:48] Iko**
I've never met a rich girl before!
**[16:50] Iko**
Was that your first time at
a convenience store, then?
**[16:55] Ai**
My family's a bit unique...
**[16:58] Ai**
so I didn't really get to
play with my friends.
**[17:02] Ai**
It's embarrassin' how little
I know of the world.
**[17:05] Teru**
O-Oh, no! It's okay!

**[17:20] Teru**
W-Would you like to go around town with us?
**[17:26] Ai**
Huh? Well, that does sound fun,
but... I won't be in the way?
**[17:30] Teru**
N-Not at all! B-But only
if you'd like to come...
**[17:34] Iko**
Yeah.
**[17:36] Ai**
Th-Then I'd be happy to join you.

Th-That's great.
**[17:58] Iko**
Ai-san, how long can you stay out?
**[18:01] Ai**
I don't really have a time limit.
**[18:04] Iko**
Huh? But won't your parents be worried?
**[18:07] Ai**
Ah, about that...

Someone!
**[18:11] Lady**
A purse snatcher!
**[18:12] Lady**
S-Someone catch him! Please!

*No way! Right now?!*
**[18:16] Teru**
*But can I even Heart-shift right now?!*
**[18:19] Teru**
*Ai-san will find out who I am!*
**[18:21] Teru**
*No! That's not what's important here!*
**[18:23] Teru**
*Everyone's in danger! I have to...*
**[18:28] Ai**
Stand back.
**[18:30] Ai**
If you get too close...
**[18:32] Ai**
you're gonna get hurt.
**[18:36] Purse Snatcher**
Out of the way, you brats!
**[18:38] Teru**
Ai-san!
**[18:49] Teru**
A-Ai-san?!
**[18:51] Iko**
Someone! Call the police! Hurry!
**[18:59] Teru**
Are you hurt?
**[19:01] Teru**
That was really dangerous. He had a knife!
**[19:04] Ai**
Look who's talkin'. You tried
to step out front, too.
**[19:07] Ai**
You shouldn't.
**[19:08] Ai**
I've, well... studied
self-defense, so I'm fine...
**[19:15] Ai**
I'm gettin' a bit dizzy, though...
**[19:17] Iko**
A-Are you okay? Maybe we should
take you to the hospital...
**[19:20] Ai**
No!
**[19:23] Ai**
I don't know who's gonna find out...
**[19:26] Ai**
I lied earlier about being on vacation.
**[19:29] Teru**
Y-You lied?
**[19:30] Ai**
I actually ran away from home.
**[19:34] Teru**
Ran away...
**[19:35] Iko**
...from home?!
**[19:36] Ai**
Yes. I ran away from home.
**[19:38] Teru**
But why did you run away from home?
**[19:43] Ai**
I shouldn't be tellin' this to strangers,
**[19:46] Ai**
but I guess I'll tell you two.
**[19:48] Ai**
You see... I'm bein' stalked.
**[19:52] Iko**
You're being stalked?!
**[19:54] Ai**
Yes. A certain person's after me.
**[19:58] Ai**
But no one will do anything
about it, so I left home.
**[20:03] Teru**
But that's...
**[20:04] Iko**
H-Have you tried the police?
**[20:06] Ai**
The police are absolutely useless.
**[20:09] Ai**
They'll just drag me back home.
**[20:11] Ai**
It's such a bother.
**[20:13] Teru**
Wh-What does this person look like?
**[20:16] Iko**
Who would do that?
**[20:18] Ai**
He's just the worst!
As suspicious as they come!
**[20:21] Ai**
He keeps follerin' me everywhere!
**[20:23] Ai**
It's horrifyin'.
**[20:26] Ai**
I'd never left my village before,
**[20:29] Ai**
so I feel so free right now.
**[20:32] Teru**
But isn't your family worried?
**[20:36] Ai**
I can't do nothin' about that.
**[20:38] Ai**
I needed to go this far or
no one would've listened.
**[20:46] Ai**
Say, you two.
**[20:48] Ai**
I hate to ask, but would you
stay with me a bit longer?
**[20:53] Ai**
This is the first time I've been out
of my village, so I'm a bit nervous...
**[20:58] Teru**
Sure, that's fine.
**[20:59] Iko**
Yeah, we don't mind.
**[21:05] Teru**
Um...
**[21:06] Teru**
Ai-san, who exactly are you?
**[21:09] Ai**
Hm?
**[21:10] Teru**
The way you used that sword back there...
**[21:12] Teru**
I don't think you're just an ordinary girl.
**[21:14] Ai**
O-Oh, that was...
**[21:21] Ai**
Well, I guess I can tell you two my secret.

Yes. He's the one who's after me.

I didn't expect him to find me so quickly.
**[02:37] Iko**
Ai-san, are you okay?
**[02:40] Ai**
My body's super weak.

swing around a sword...

but he'll find me soon...

No, really, you okay?

*I have to Heart-shift!*
**[03:32] Teru**
*No! I won't make it in time!*
**[03:39] Tokimaru**
Honestly, you push yourself way too far.

Huh?
**[03:44] Iko**
Hey, it's the weirdo from before.
**[03:47] Tokimaru**
I am not a weirdo.
**[03:49] Tokimaru**
My name is Tokimaru.
**[03:51] Tokimaru**
I've come to retrieve our
village's princess, Ai-sama.
**[03:55] Iko and Teru**
*Pri... Princess?!*
**[04:01] Ai**
Why are you followin' me?!
**[04:03] Tokimaru**
To protect you, Ai-sama!
**[04:05] Ai**
It's because everyone's
sheltered me my whole life
**[04:08] Ai**
that I ended up knowing nothing of the world!
**[04:11] Tokimaru**
You are not a normal person, Ai-sama.
**[04:13] Tokimaru**
There's no need for you
to know of the world.
**[04:15] Tokimaru**
We will protect you.
**[04:17] Ai**
Shut your mouth, you moron!
**[04:20] Iko**
Why are they arguing up there?
**[04:22] Ai**
Whatever!
**[04:24] Tokimaru**
Ai-sama!
**[04:26] Ai**
Ugh... After all the trouble I went
through to leave the village...
**[04:32] Teru**
Um... Why did you run away from home, Ai-san?
**[04:37] Teru**
I mean... from the shinobi village...
**[04:41] Ai**
From the moment I was born,
they never let me leave the village.
**[04:46] Ai**
Because I'm so sheltered,
I didn't know about anythin'.
**[04:51] Ai**
That's why...
**[04:52] Ai**
I've always longed to see this big world.
**[04:57] Tokimaru**
You're not sheltered.
**[04:59] Tokimaru**
We're just protecting you, Ai-sama.
**[05:01] Ai**
Quit eavesdroppin'!
**[05:04] Teru**
Er, calm down, Ai-san.
**[05:07] Teru**
What's this about shinobi, anyway?
**[05:12] Ai**
Shinobi have basically given their
lives for the sake of the world.
**[05:19] Ai**
Currently, we live quietly away from
civilization in the village of Soga.
**[05:25] Ai**
In the past, we mostly prevented wars,
**[05:29] Ai**
punished evildoers, and saved people...
**[05:33] Teru**
Saved people?
**[05:35] Teru**
*They sound like heroes.*
**[05:38] Ai**
Don't you think it's strange, though?!
**[05:40] Ai**
They keep sayin' it's for the
world and for the people,
**[05:43] Ai**
but we're livin' in secret away
from both the world and people.
**[05:47] Ai**
I don't wanna live like that anymore!
**[05:49] Ai**
I want to live more out in the open!
**[05:52] Ai**
So just stay outta my way!
**[05:54] Ai**
Tokimaru, hurry on home!
**[05:56] Tokimaru**
I will not go home.
**[05:58] Tokimaru**
If I leave you here, I'm the one
who's going to get yelled at.
**[06:03] Ai**
You're just doin' this for yourself!
**[06:05] Ai**
In the end, this is the
only one I can believe in.
**[06:09] Teru**
And who's that?
**[06:10] Ai**
My katana.
**[06:12] Ai**
This is what's led me this far so
I wouldn't be found or get lost.
**[06:18] Teru**
Your katana... guided you?
**[06:20] Ai**
I've ended up quite far from
home thanks to her, though.
**[06:28] Ai**
The Heart Blade, Purity.
**[06:32] Teru**
I-It's a real katana?
**[06:36] Iko**
I thought it was a wooden blade.
**[06:38] Teru**
It's so pretty...
**[06:39] Ai**
Right?!
**[06:41] Ai**
Purty's a real beauty, ain't she?
**[06:44] Ai**
P-Purty?
**[06:46] Ai**
You've got some nice eyes.
**[06:47] Ai**
Teru-san, try holdin' her.
**[06:49] Teru**
H-Huh?
**[06:52] Teru**
It's not heavy at all...
**[06:55] Teru**
It's like I'm holding nothing at all.
**[07:00] Ai**
Say, Teru-san.
**[07:01] Ai**
You know how you write "shinobi" using
the characters for "blade" and "heart"?
***SIGN*** Blade
***SIGN*** Heart
**[07:06] Ai**
Why do you think that is?
**[07:07] Teru**
Huh?
**[07:08] Ai**
You put your heart onto your
blade and turn it into strength.
**[07:12] Ai**
You also read the heart of
your blade and control it.
**[07:16] Ai**
That's what shinobi do.
**[07:20] Ai**
Even if I lack strength, if I give
my heart to my blade, I can fight.
**[07:27] Ai**
And... Let me see her for a sec.
**[07:29] Ai**
She also reads the hearts of the people
who touch her and tells me about them.
**[07:35] Teru**
Reads their hearts?
**[07:37] Ai**
Yes, yes... What's that?
**[07:40] Ai**
Let's see... Teru-san is...
**[07:44] Ai**

Her favorite thing is...
natto? That's surprisin'.
***SIGN*** Born on 4/2
**[07:55] Ai**
She's very introverted and shy.
**[07:59] Ai**
You had an older sister,
and you were really close.
**[08:03] Teru**
Huh?!
**[08:04] Ai**
What's currently troublin' you is the
fact that you have some bad bedhead.
**[08:08] Ai**
The thing you're happy about right now is
the fact that you've gotten closer with Iko-san.
**[08:12] Teru**
Huh?!
**[08:16] Teru**
U-Um, I think that's enough!
**[08:19] Teru**
P-P-Please don't say any more about me!
**[08:22] Ai**
Wow, she's right. You really are shy!
**[08:25] Ai**
How adorable.
**[08:27] Iko**
That's amazing! Are all shinobi like this?
**[08:31] Ai**
This power belongs to me alone.
**[08:34] Ai**
You know how they say objects
gain a heart over time?
**[08:37] Ai**
So I... hm?
**[08:40] Ai**
What's that, Purty?
**[08:42] Ai**
I see...
**[08:44] Ai**
Teru-san?
**[08:47] Ai**
Teru-san's the hero I've been lookin' for?
**[08:50] Teru**
Huh?!
**[08:58] Ai**
So you see... there's one other
reason I left my village.
**[09:04] Ai**
A little while back, I felt a pitch-black
heart seething somewhere far away.
**[09:10] Teru**
A pitch-black heart seething?
**[09:14] Teru**
*Could she mean... from back then?*
**[09:18] Ai**
And then she told me that
I have somethin' I need to do.
**[09:28] Ai**
I need to talk to a hero.
**[09:33] Teru**
Wh-What's that scar?
**[09:37] Ai**
It's a scar I got when I was little.
**[09:40] Ai**
Because of it, my heart's grown weak,
so it's a bit hard gettin' around in this body.
**[09:46] Ai**
There's been a shadow upon
my heart this whole time.
**[09:51] Ai**
That seething pitch-black
heart reminded me of my scar.
**[09:56] Ai**
My katana also tells me that this is fate.
**[10:00] Ai**
Teru-san, there's someone out there
threatenin' everyone's peace, isn't there?
**[10:08] Ai**
I want you to let me help you.
**[10:10] Ai**
So that the evil consumin' people's
hearts will cease to exist.
**[10:14] Tokimaru**
Ai-sama!
**[10:17] Tokimaru**
I can't stand by any longer!
**[10:19] Tokimaru**
You'll be in danger!
**[10:21] Ai**
Just go home, Tokimaru!
**[10:23] Ai**
I don't plan on goin' back
until I've fulfilled my goal!
**[10:27] Tokimaru**
Please don't be unreasonable!
**[10:29] Tokimaru**
It's not just me.
**[10:30] Tokimaru**
Everyone is worried about you, Ai-sama!
**[10:35] Tokimaru**
Besides, there are no shinobi villages nearby.
**[10:39] Tokimaru**
Where do you plan on living?
**[10:41] Ai**
W-Well...
**[10:48] Ai**
You're a hero, right, Teru-san?
**[10:51] Teru**
Huh?
**[10:52] Ai**
And heroes help those in need, right?
**[10:56] Teru**
U-Um...
**[10:59] Ai**
And I'm in need right now. So...
**[11:03] Ai**
I guess I'll just be in Teru-san's care.
**[11:07] Tokimaru**
Huh?
**[11:08] Iko; Teru**
Huh?
**[11:09] Teru**
*She's coming to my place?!*
**[11:16] Teru**
Shy.

So this is where you live, Teru-san...
**[11:28] Teru**
Er, um... Are you really
going to stay at my place?
**[11:32] Ai**
Too bad Iko-san didn't join us.
**[11:35] Teru**
Um, well... I-Iko-san had to go home
to make her little brother dinner, so...
**[11:41] Ai**
I see.

Shrimpy-san, right?
**[12:17] Teru**
Huh?
**[12:18] Ai**
Purty told me that you had a roommate.
**[12:22] Ai**
But I had no idea he was so adorable.
**[12:26] Teru**
Huh?
**[12:27] Teru**
*A-Adorable?*
**[12:30] Shrimpy**
Hm?
**[12:42] Teru**
Ai-san, I'll leave a change

**[12:47] Ai**
Thanks, Teru-san.

I-I said a margherita...
**[13:46] Employee**
*Huh?!*
**[13:48] Employee**
*This...*
**[13:51] Teru**
U-Um, cwan I get a medium margherita...

Delivery... What a truly terrifying thing...
**[14:16] Shrimpy**
Teru...
**[14:18] Ai**
Whatcha doin', Teru-san?
**[14:21] Ai**
Ai-san...
**[14:23] Ai**
Um... I was trying to figure
out what to do for dinner.
**[14:27] Ai**
Oh, is that all?
**[14:29] Ai**
In that case, I'll make some for you.
**[14:33] Ai**
Katanas aren't the only
types of blades, you know.
**[14:47] Ai**
What do you think? I hope it's to your likin'.
**[14:51] Ai**
Thanks for helpin' with
the dishes, Shrimpy-san.
**[14:54] Shrimpy**
I don't mind.
**[14:55] Shrimpy**
Don't mind me. Go ahead and eat.
**[14:58] Teru**
L-Let's eat...
**[15:00] Ai**
I hope you like it.
**[15:06] Teru**
It's good.
**[15:08] Ai**
Really?
**[15:09] Teru**
Y-Yes. The seasoning is mild, too.
**[15:12] Ai**
I'm glad to hear it.
**[15:15] Ai**
Everyone always thinks that blades
are just for hurtin' people,
**[15:20] Ai**
but dependin' on the heart that goes into it,
**[15:22] Ai**
it can be a tool used to kill people
or a tool to make delicious food.
**[15:27] Teru**
The heart...
**[15:29] Ai**
Yup. And we shinobi train our hearts.
**[15:35] Ai**
Just like a blade, hearts
don't start out good or bad.
**[15:43] Ai**
It's just... depending
on how people use them,
**[15:46] Ai**
they end up angels or demons.
**[15:53] Ai**
Tokimaru, you still around?
**[15:56] Tokimaru**
Yes. I'm right here.
**[15:59] Ai**
Ah, so you didn't go home.
**[16:01] Tokimaru**
Of course not. It is my duty to protect—
**[16:04] Ai**
Oh, whatever. I get it already.
**[16:07] Ai**
Here.
**[16:09] Ai**
It ain't much, but I made extra.
**[16:12] Tokimaru**
O-Oh, Ai-sama! How can I ever thank—
**[16:18] Ai**
Good grief! Okay, already! Just whatever!
**[16:23] Ai**
Honestly... I keep tellin'
him to go home already.
**[16:27] Teru**
I honestly don't mind if
you both spend the night...
**[16:31] Ai**
It's fine.
**[16:32] Ai**
Tokimaru's always trainin'
for times like this.
**[16:39] Ai**
What, Tokimaru? You give up already?
**[16:44] Ai**
Oh, my.
**[16:45] Teru**
Iko-san?!
**[16:47] Iko**
Um... You know. I just got worried.
**[16:52] Iko**
Wait, I mean...
**[16:54] Iko**
No fair! You two are having
a sleepover without me!
**[16:57] Iko**
Let me join, too!
**[17:00] Teru**
Huh?!
**[17:01] Iko**
Come on! Let's play!
**[17:04] Iko**
Tomorrow's Sunday anyway!
**[17:06] Teru**
Wh-What about your brother?
**[17:08] Iko**
He's fine! I told him to call
me if he needs anything.
***SIGN*** The Game of Life
4 extra areas so you can play even longer!
**[17:15] Iko**
I-I ended up bringing all sorts of things...
**[17:18] Iko**
Well? What do you guys wanna play?
**[17:21] Teru**
You seem way more excited
than usual, Iko-san.
**[17:25] Iko**
Huh?! Y-You think so?
**[17:28] Iko**
A lot happened today, and it was
really fun! Maybe that's why!
**[17:33] Iko**
And we became friends with Ai-san.
**[17:37] Ai**
Wh-What did you just say?
**[17:38] Iko**
Huh? I said it's been fun since
we became friends with you.
**[17:44] Iko**
Oh, sorry! Maybe I got
too friendly too quickly.
**[17:48] Ai**
No, it's not that! It's just...
**[17:52] Ai**
I've never had someone come out and
say that they were my friend before.
**[17:59] Teru**
Ai-san...
***SIGN*** The Game of Life
**[18:00] Iko**
All right! Then the three of us
are gonna play the night away!
**[18:06] Teru**
O-Okay!
**[18:26] Iko**
Should we hit the hay? It's almost eleven...
**[18:31] Teru**
Yeah.
**[18:33] Ai**
U-Um, you two...
**[18:37] Ai**
Thank you so, so much for today.
**[18:41] Ai**
We only just met, and you
did all this for me...
**[18:44] Teru**
Oh, it's no problem! I had a lot of fun, too.
**[18:48] Iko**
Yeah! Totally!
**[18:51] Ai**
And that's exactly why... I thought
I should tell you the truth.
**[18:57] Ai**
The real reason why
I left my village all alone.
**[19:03] Teru**
The real reason?
**[19:06] Ai**
The one I'm after is in Amarariruku.
**[19:12] Teru**
A-Amarariruku? You know about them, Ai-san?
**[19:18] Ai**
She told me Amarariruku's name.
**[19:22] Ai**
And the fact that the person
I'm lookin' for is there.
**[19:26] Teru**
A-And who is this person you're after?
**[19:32] Ai**
It's...
**[19:35] Utsuro**
My katana... is crying out.
**[19:43] Ai**
...the other...
**[19:47] Ai**
me.
**[19:52] Utsuro**
How sad...
**[19:53] Utsuro**
It's all empty.
**[19:55] Utsuro**
Both me... and this world.
**[20:01] Utsuro**
It's all an illusion... A fleeting dream.
**[20:11] Utsuro**
Even this nightmare...
**[20:16] Utsuro**
will all be over soon.
**[20:19] Utsuro**
Right, Ai-nee?
**[20:25] Utsuro**
You again, Stigma?
**[20:30] Stigma**
Utsuro-chan, can I talk to you?
**[20:35] Utsuro**
We're nothin' more than your pawns.
**[20:38] Utsuro**
Do as you please.
**[20:41] Stigma**
I can't say that's how I see it.
**[20:45] Stigma**
We're all one body and one soul.
**[20:47] Stigma**
We're all connected by our hearts.
**[20:51] Utsuro**
Connected?
**[20:53] Utsuro**
That's truly pointless.
**[20:55] Utsuro**
People are fated to die pitiful and alone.
**[20:59] Utsuro**
Connections are nothing
more than an illusion.
**[21:03] Stigma**
That's exactly what I like about you.
**[21:08] Stigma**
Your world belongs to you.
**[21:12] Stigma**
I'll grant your wish.
**[21:18] Stigma**
The place is here, the capital of the East.
**[21:25] Stigma**
I think it's a perfect place for your dream.
**[21:29] Stigma**
What do you think?
**[21:33] Utsuro**
I told you. We're your pawns.
**[21:37] Utsuro**
We're empty dolls only meant
to follow your bidding.
**[21:42] Utsuro**
How absolutely pitiful.
**[21:46] Stigma**
Say, Utsuro-chan.
**[21:49] Stigma**
Look up at the sky.
**[21:54] Stigma**
See? Soon...
**[22:01] Stigma**
the night will fall asleep.

Teru-san.
**[00:04] Ai**
Teru-san.
**[00:06] Ai**
Teru-san!
**[00:10] Ai**
It's already 9 AM.
**[00:16] Teru**
G-Good morning...
**[00:19] Ai**
You're more of a sleepyhead than I thought.
**[00:23] Ai**
Iko-san's already awake. Shape up, will you?
**[00:27] Teru**
* Oh, right. Iko-san and Ai-san*
* stayed over last night.*
**[00:33] (Flashback) Ai**
The one I'm after is in Amarariruku.
**[00:39] (Flashback) Ai**
It's...
**[00:40] (Flashback) Ai**
the other...
**[00:42] (Flashback) Ai**
me.
**[00:45] Teru**
*I reported this to Unilord-san...*
**[00:50] Teru**
* But I wonder what Ai-san*
* means by "the other me."*
**[00:56] Ai**
Come, now. Let's get you
dressed and go outside.
**[00:59] Ai**
Today, I'd like for us to get
to know each other better.
**[02:37] Teru**
Heart-shift!
**[02:42] Ai**
This is what heroes look like? How bizarre!
**[02:45] Ai**
How does all this work?
**[02:47] Shy**
U-Um... What are we doing at a riverbank?
***SIGN*** Episode 16:
Cloud in the Dark
**[02:52] Ai**
I figured no one would see us here,
so it'd be easier to show our secrets.
**[02:56] Shy**
Secrets?
**[03:01] Shy**
Ai-san?!
**[03:12] Iko**
Whoa, that's amazing! You look so cool!
**[03:15] Ai**
This is my transformation spell.
**[03:17] Ai**
Though mine is basically
just sleight of hand.
**[03:20] Ai**
You two played all sorts of
games with me yesterday,
**[03:23] Ai**
so I thought I'd teach you one today.
**[03:27] Shy**
A game?
**[03:28] Iko**
So like a shinobi game?
**[03:30] Ai**
Correct!
**[03:32] Ai**
We're gonna throw this into the river.
**[03:35] Shy**
Skipping stones?
**[03:36] Iko**
I haven't done that in forever!
**[03:38] Ai**
Aw, so you two have played this before?
**[03:41] Iko**
Let's see who can skip one the furthest!
**[03:44] Shy**
Okay!
**[03:45] Ai**
That's not what we're doin'.
**[03:46] Both**
Huh?
**[03:53] Ai**
We see how many of these we can
lodge in the tree across the river.
**[03:57] Shy and Iko**
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!
**[03:59] Iko**
What the heck was that?! A superpower?!
**[04:01] Shy**
You made it look so easy,
but that's impossible for us!
**[04:04] Ai**
You can do it. Just sense the rock's heart.
**[04:09] Iko**
D-Do you get it?
**[04:11] Shy**
No...
**[04:20] Ai**
What're you doin', Tokimaru?
**[04:24] Tokimaru**
I'm keeping an eye on the area.
**[04:26] Ai**
I was just playin' a game with Teru-chan
and Iko-chan. Rock shurikens.
**[04:31] Tokimaru**
Well, that's rather nostalgic.
**[04:33] Ai**
More importantly, why're you shirtless?
**[04:36] Tokimaru**
I just finished bathing...
**[04:39] Ai**
You were totally playin' around!
**[04:41] Tokimaru**
No, I was washing my top...
**[04:45] Ai**
You're not gonna wash your scarf?
**[04:47] Ai**
You always have that on.
**[04:50] Tokimaru**
I can't ever lose this, no matter what.
**[04:55] Ai**
Uh-huh... So since you
refuse to ever take it off,
**[04:59] Ai**
did someone you like give it to you?
**[05:01] Tokimaru**
Yes.
**[05:02] Tokimaru**
You did, Ai-sama.
**[05:05] Ai**
What?! Did I really give you that?!
**[05:08] Ai**
No way! I don't remember that at all!
**[05:10] Tokimaru**
Well, it was quite a while ago.
**[05:14] Tokimaru**
More importantly, Ai-sama...
**[05:16] Tokimaru**
Do you really not intend to go back?
**[05:20] Tokimaru**
No matter what path forward
you take, only chaos awaits.
**[05:27] Ai**
This must be fate.
**[05:31] Ai**
I'm the only one who can save her soul.
**[05:38] Shy**
Aw, I messed up again...
**[05:41] Ai**
Well? How's it goin', you two?
**[05:43] Iko**
It's just not possible, no matter
how much spin I get on it.
**[05:46] Ai**
Uh-huh...
**[05:47] Ai**
It's not just up to your hands.
**[05:50] Ai**
You first need to realize that
the rock also has a heart.
**[05:54] Ai**
You find one that wants
to get to the other side,
**[05:57] Ai**
and then want to help it on its way.
**[06:00] Ai**
Thank it, believe in it, and let it guide you.
**[06:06] Shy**
*Thank... its heart?*
**[06:09] Shy**
*We need to believe that we're helping it?*
**[06:13] Shy**
*I see.*
**[06:15] Shy**
*So it's like helping another person.*
**[06:18] Shy**
* With the rock in my hand, I'll act like*
* I'm giving its back a little push...*
**[06:27] Ai**
See?
**[06:28] Shy**
I-I think I get it now!
**[06:30] Ai**
Now let's try two at once.
**[06:33] Shy**
Huh?! Two at once?!
**[06:35] Tokimaru**
It's all right. Tell everyone in the village
that there's nothing to worry about.
**[06:39] Tokimaru**
I will protect Ai-sama at any cost.
**[06:44] Tokimaru**
Even if I have to give my own life.
**[06:53] Adam**
I hear the Japanese hero
gave a report to Unilord.
**[06:57] Pepesha**
Yes. Apparently, Teru-chan's ninja friend
is after someone in Amarariruku.
**[07:04] Adam**
I wonder how long it's been since the
three of us last got together like this.
**[07:08] Pepesha**
I guess that's just how
serious this situation is.
**[07:13] Davie**
Well, since we're together now...
**[07:17] Davie**
Let's enjoy a nice, long chat with some tea.
**[07:20] Davie**
Right, Century?
**[07:22] Adam**
Whatever, but...
**[07:25] Adam**
How many times must I tell you
two to drop these bad habits?
**[07:28] Pepesha**
I see you're as strict as ever.
**[07:31] Adam**
More importantly, this Amarariruku lot.
**[07:34] Adam**
I hear they're able to
project one's heart outside.
**[07:38] Pepesha**
Exactly. That's what I
witnessed when I fought them.
**[07:43] Adam**
You were over there with
the Japanese hero, right?
**[07:47] Adam**
We still don't know Stigma's motives,
**[07:50] Adam**
but what's the point of
creating that heart space?
**[07:53] Davie**
Probably to control people?
**[07:56] Adam**
So what's the point of doing
that when heroes are present?
**[08:01] Pepesha**
You think they're telling us
they're after heroes?
**[08:04] Pepesha**
To take heroes down?
**[08:07] Adam**
It means their motive
might be outside of that.
**[08:13] Davie**
So they trap heroes within this
space in place of a prison,
**[08:17] Davie**
and then carry on from there?
**[08:20] Adam**
That's a possibility.
**[08:23] Adam**
But I can't help but think
there's something deeper.
**[08:28] Adam**
If we mess up our next step,
the worst may happen.
**[08:33] Pepesha**
*The worst...*
**[08:36] Pepesha**
* I can't let a tragedy worse than*
* what happened with Mama happen.*
**[08:42] Pepesha**
*Right, Teru-chan?*
**[08:51] Shy**
* In the end, I was only able*
* to get one rock to hit.*
**[08:55] Iko**
By the way, how'd you come this far, Ai-san?
**[08:58] Ai**
How? I just used the train.
**[09:00] Iko**
What?! You're able to use the train?
**[09:03] Ai**
W-Well, that's rude! Of course I can.
**[09:07] Ai**
The station where I had to
transfer was way too crowded.
**[09:10] Iko**
Oh, you mean in Tokyo?
**[09:12] Ai**
Oh, yes.
**[09:14] Shy**
The big city... I'd love to go someday!
**[09:18] Ai**
Well, there definitely were a lot
of people and a buncha buildings,
**[09:22] Ai**
so it seemed pretty lively.
**[09:24] Ai**
There was some giant tower
that pierced the heavens, too.
**[09:28] Ai**
You could probably see real far if
you went all the way to the top.
**[09:37] Doki**
Hey, Utsuro! Isn't it about time?
**[09:41] Inori**
Let us begin our salvation.
**[09:44] Utsuro**
What's the point in this scheme?
**[09:48] Doki**
How the hell would I know?
**[09:51] Inori**
This is your dream, after all.
**[09:59] Utsuro**
I guess so.
**[10:06] Ai**
Purty? What's the matter?
**[10:10] Utsuro**
This world is nothing but fantasy.
**[10:15] Utsuro**
In which case we don't need to hesitate.
**[10:20] Utsuro**
Turn everything into nothing.
**[10:33] Shrimpy**
*Can you hear me, Teru?*
**[10:35] Shy**
Shrimpy-san?
**[10:37] Shrimpy**
*There's an emergency!*
**[10:39] Shrimpy**
*This is a message from Unilord to all heroes.*
**[10:43] Woman**
What's going on?
**[10:50] Shrimpy**
* Due to an unidentified black*
* sphere, the heart of Tokyo...*
**[10:55] Shrimpy**
*has disappeared.*
**[10:57] Shy**
Tokyo has disappeared?
**[11:04] Shy**
Shy.

**[11:14] Reporter**
We're currently right
above Tokyo! Take a look!
**[11:18] Reporter**
There is a huge dome in
the heart of the city.
**[11:20] Reporter**
While the JSDF is trying to get inside,
they have been unsuccessful so far.
**[11:26] Reporter**
What in the world happened to Tokyo?
**[11:34] Unilord**
Amarariruku has appeared in Tokyo.
**[11:38] Century**
What's going on within the dome?
**[11:40] Spirit**
Right now, we're not sure.
**[11:42] Spirit**
I tried to warp in, but it
seems that I can't get inside.
**[11:46] Lady Black**
I want to prioritize a rescue, but
we're talking about tens of thousands...
**[11:51] Stardust**
We'll have to find a way inside.
**[11:54] Unilord**
This is an attack on a scale
we've never seen before.
**[11:57] Unilord**
We'll have to work together
to get through this.
**[12:01] Century**
But without knowing
exactly what they're after,
**[12:03] Century**
if we act carelessly, we might
play right into their hands.
**[12:07] Lady Black**
But if we just stand by and do nothing,
**[12:09] Lady Black**
that might be what they're hoping for, too.
**[12:12] Stardust**
He knows that.
**[12:15] Stardust**
He's just saying we need to be
cautious of the outside, too.
**[12:19] Unilord**
It might also be their intention
to gather all the heroes to Tokyo,
**[12:23] Unilord**
so I've asked all the other heroes
**[12:25] Unilord**
to reinforce the security of their
own and surrounding countries.
**[12:30] Mianlong**
Wh-What are we going to do next?
**[12:34] Shy**
I-I...
**[12:37] Shy**
I really want to head over there
immediately and save everyone.
**[12:42] Shy**
While we're just standing here,
**[12:43] Shy**
everyone inside there might be suffering.
**[12:49] Shy**
Just thinking about that hurts me.
**[12:52] Spirit**
Teru-chan...
**[12:53] Stardust**
I guess I can understand that feeling.
**[12:57] Stardust**
Unilord, we should probably split up into
an infiltration team and a standby team.
**[13:04] Stardust**
The infiltration team will infiltrate the dome,
rescue the people, and repel the enemy.
**[13:11] Stardust**
The standby team will secure the area and
assist any people in the area to safety.
**[13:19] Unilord**
In that case, let us split
up into these two teams.
**[13:23] Unilord**
The chosen leaders will create
their teams and command them.
**[13:29] Unilord**
The standby team's leader will be Century.
**[13:31] Unilord**
I will leave this task to you.
**[13:33] Century**
Understood. Do we have contact
with the Japanese police or JSDF?
**[13:37] Unilord**
It is possible to work with them.
**[13:40] Unilord**
And as for the leader of
the infiltration team...
**[13:44] Unilord**
Shy, I appoint you.
**[13:47] Shy**
Huh?
**[13:49] Shy**
Er, wha, wait... Huh?!
**[13:51] Unilord**
The location of this mission is Tokyo.
**[13:54] Unilord**
The Japanese hero knows more about
this country than any of the others.
**[13:59] Unilord**
And you have prior experience
fighting our enemy.
**[14:05] Unilord**
No one else here is more suited
for this role than you.
**[14:10] Unilord**
Both team leaders will
choose their team members.
**[14:13] Unilord**
Once you have formed your teams,
proceed with your plans.
**[14:17] Century**
Stardust, Spirit, come here for a moment.
**[14:21] Century**
There's something I want to confirm
regarding this space that Amarariruku creates.
**[14:25] Spirit**
Roger!
**[14:34] Shy**
*I'm the leader?*
**[14:38] Lady Black**
Hey, what are you doing?
**[14:40] Lady Black**
Did you decide on your team members?
**[14:42] Shy**
P-Piltz-san. Sorry, not yet.
**[14:46] Shy**
I probably shouldn't be the leader...
**[14:49] Shy**
I don't have much experience, and I'm weak...
**[14:53] Shy**
So...
**[14:55] Lady Black**
A leader's job is to rely on others.
**[14:58] Shy**
Huh?
**[14:59] Lady Black**
If you lack experience,
get someone who has some.
**[15:02] Lady Black**
If you're weak, then get
someone who's strong.
**[15:07] Lady Black**
Figure out your limits, and leave your
shortcomings to people who make up for them.
**[15:12] Lady Black**
That's what a leader is, and that's
what's being asked of you.
**[15:16] Lady Black**
We're short on time here, so chop chop!
**[15:19] Shy**
Piltz-san!
**[15:22] Shy**
Do you really think I can do this?
**[15:27] Lady Black**
Are you stupid?
**[15:29] Lady Black**
If I really thought you couldn't,
I would've objected until I died.
**[15:41] Shy**
Thank you very much. This is delicious.
**[15:45] Mianlong**
I know things are really rough right now,
**[15:47] Mianlong**
but I believe it will all work out.
**[15:51] Mianlong**
I know that you're strong, after all.
**[15:54] Mianlong**
Oh! Please let me know if there's
anything I can do for you.
**[15:58] Mianlong**
I'll do my best, too!
**[16:00] Shy**
Okay. Thank you very much.
**[16:04] Shy**
* Both of them just gave*
* me a little push, right?*
**[16:11] Century**
I see. So despite how
powerful your heart is,
**[16:15] Century**
you couldn't escape that space?
**[16:18] Spirit**
Right. I think it's safe to assume that
the space Mama—Tzveta—created
**[16:23] Spirit**
and the dome that's enveloped
Tokyo are the same.
**[16:27] Stardust**
Which means it'll be difficult for
us to enter that space, as well.
**[16:34] Shy**
U-Um... C-Century-shan...
**[16:38] Shy**
M-May I talk to you?
**[16:40] Century**
What is it? Keep it brief, please.
**[16:43] Shy**
P-Previously, when we were in that space,
we couldn't contact anyone on the outside.
**[16:48] Shy**
There's a chance we won't be
able to exit once we enter,
**[16:52] Shy**
so there's something I wanted
to decide right now.
**[16:55] Shy**
If...
**[16:57] Shy**
If there's no contact from me even
after some time has passed...
**[17:00] Shy**
I'd like you to prioritize
the rescuing of civilians!
**[17:05] Century**
Do you plan on losing?
**[17:07] Shy**
Oh! N-No! I plan to give it my all!
**[17:11] Shy**
I just thought we'd need a second team
just in case I went down in there.
**[17:18] Shy**
The most important thing here
is the lives of the civilians!
**[17:21] Spirit**
Teru-chan...
**[17:23] Century**
Understood. We'll make the
necessary preparations.
**[17:27] Shy**
Th-Thank you!
**[17:29] Century**
But I also have a request.
**[17:32] Shy**
Huh?
**[17:33] Century**
I ask only one thing.
Come back alive, no matter what.
**[17:37] Century**
We're counting on you, Leader Shy.
**[17:41] Shy**
Right!
**[17:46] Spirit**
* Teru-chan... You're a completely different*
* person compared to a month ago.*

A-All I have to do now is choose my

**[18:08] Ai**
I heard everything that's going on.
**[18:11] Ai**
I, Ai Tennoji, shall accompany you!
**[18:15] Shy**
A-Ai-san and Iko-san?!
**[18:17] Shy**
H-How did you two get here?
**[18:20] Ai**
Well, I am a shinobi.
**[18:22] Ai**
So I snuck in all shinobi-like.
**[18:24] Shy**
A-All the way up here?!
**[18:26] Ai**
Precisely!
**[18:27] Iko**
Uh...
**[18:30] Unilord**
I had Shrimpy invite her up here.
**[18:34] Shy**
Huh? B-But she said she snuck up here...
**[18:38] Ai**
I was joking, of course.
**[18:42] Ai**
Teru-san, I wanna help out, too.
**[18:46] Ai**
I'm pretty sure the only one who can
cut a way into that black dome
**[18:50] Ai**
is me.
**[19:00] Shy**
Your sword...
**[19:02] Ai**
Just as my sword led me to you,
**[19:06] Ai**
I'm sure she'll guide us into that barrier, too.
**[19:09] Ai**
So...
**[19:11] Ai**
please let me help you.
**[19:13] Shy**
But I can't drag you into this, Ai-san.
**[19:17] Unilord**
I believe it's worth trying out.
**[19:20] Unilord**
I do sense special powers
of the heart in Ai-san.
**[19:24] Shy**
But...
**[19:26] Ai**
Teru-san.
**[19:28] Ai**
Saving people isn't just
reserved for heroes to do.
**[19:31] Shy**
Huh?
**[19:32] Ai**
She wants to help out, too.
**[19:35] Ai**
Don't try to handle all this on
your own. Let me help, Shy-san!
**[19:43] Shy**
*What I need to do...*
**[19:45] Shy**
*What I need to do as a leader is...*
**[19:49] Shy**
Ai-san! I will accept your help!
**[19:55] Ai**
All right! Leave it to me!
**[19:58] Ai**
They say there's no time like the present!
**[20:00] Ai**
Go take care of the rest of your tasks.
**[20:05] Shy**
Right!
**[20:07] Shy**
*Don't be embarrassed. It's okay.*
**[20:10] Shy**
*If I'm lacking strength,*
**[20:12] Shy**
*I know everyone's strengths more than anyone!*
**[20:17] Shy**
Pepesha-san!
**[20:18] Shy**
Mianlong-san!
**[20:20] Shy**
P-Piltz-san!
**[20:25] Shy**
Um, thank you for meeting with me.
**[20:30] Shy**
Pepesha-san, I know just
how powerful you are.
**[20:34] Shy**
Please help me out.
**[20:38] Spirit**
Of course, Captain.
**[20:41] Shy**
Thank you!
**[20:43] Shy**
I'd like you to join my team
as well, Mianlong-san!
**[20:46] Mianlong**
But I don't know how helpful I can be...
**[20:50] Shy**
When we fought together before,
**[20:52] Shy**
I felt something after seeing your power.
**[20:55] Shy**
Your strength not to harm others is kinder
and more powerful than any other power.
**[21:02] Shy**
I'm sure I'll need that strength!
**[21:08] Mianlong**
All right.
**[21:09] Mianlong**
I will do everything I can to live
up to your expectations, Leader!
**[21:14] Shy**
And Piltz-san.
**[21:17] Shy**
U-Um, if you wouldn't mind—
**[21:19] Lady Black**
Are you stupid?!
**[21:21] Lady Black**
Shouldn't you have asked me first?!
**[21:24] Shy**
Huh?!
**[21:25] Lady Black**
How are you going to take care
of the injured people inside?
**[21:27] Lady Black**
Shouldn't you be starting with that?!
**[21:30] Shy**
Yes...
**[21:32] Lady Black**
And!
**[21:35] Lady Black**
If you're going to be
our leader, stand proud.
**[21:38] Lady Black**
My life is in your hands, Leader.
**[21:42] Shy**
Right!
**[21:44] Iko**
T-Teru-chan, Ai-san.
**[21:49] Iko**
D-Do your best out there!
**[21:52] Shy**
I will!
**[21:56] Shy**
Okay!
**[22:01] Shy**
Let's go.

The standby team is in position.

*We're also in position.*
**[00:22] Shy**
We will now infiltrate the orb.
**[00:25] Shrimpy**
*There's no telling what'll happen inside.*
**[00:27] Shrimpy**
*Please be careful.*
**[00:29] Shy**
R-Right!
**[00:32] Shy**
Everyone, I'm a coward, and I've
never been a leader before...
**[00:38] Shy**
and I'm still really weak.
**[00:41] Shy**
But everyone's lives are in my hands today.
**[00:44] Shy**
I'm super scared...
**[00:47] Shy**
But...
**[00:48] Shy**
But that's exactly why...
**[00:50] Shy**
we won't lose!
**[02:33] Shy**
It opened.

**[03:10] Daigo**
Yeah!
**[03:15] Iko**
*Right, Teru-chan?*
**[03:31] Lady Black**
It's so quiet that it's actually creepy.
**[03:34] Mianlong**
It's hard to believe we're
in the middle of a huge city.
**[03:37] Spirit**
No light or electricity reaches in here.
**[03:41] Lady Black**
Look over there.
**[03:44] Lady Black**
Looks like something's definitely over there.
**[03:46] Shy**
I guess our first destination is that tower.
**[03:51] Shy**
Let's go.
**[03:57] Shy**
Where did everyone in the city go?
**[04:02] Mianlong**
The enemy hasn't attacked yet.
**[04:04] Mianlong**
I wonder if they haven't caught on to us.
**[04:08] Spirit**
I'm going to have a peek from above.
**[04:11] Spirit**
I'll do it quietly so no one sees me.
**[04:14] Shy**
Th-Thank you!
**[04:17] Spirit**
*It's so dark, I can barely see anything.*
**[04:22] Spirit**
Teru-chan! Over here!
**[04:25] Shy**
Wh-What is it, Spirit-san?
**[04:28] Spirit**
Over here!
**[04:39] Mianlong**
Wh-What are they?
**[04:42] Shy**
Are they... the people that were inside?
**[04:45] Lady**
I'll check them out.
**[04:47] Lady**
You guys keep a look out!
**[04:48] Shy**
R-Right!
**[04:51] Shy**
I-I wonder if they're okay...
**[04:55] Spirit**
I wonder if it's due to
the nature of this orb,
**[04:58] Spirit**
or if that happened to them because
they've been in here for so long.
**[05:02] Lady**
Well, they're showing signs of
life, so they seem to be alive.
**[05:06] Spirit**
If it's like last time, they should turn back
to normal once we defeat what caused this.
**[05:11] Spirit**
We should hurry—
**[05:14] Spirit**
Up above! Something's coming!
**[05:18] Shy**
An attack?!
**[05:20] Shy**
Everyone! Prepare for combat!
**[05:22] Doki**
There you are.
**[05:24] Doki**
You damn vermin, sneakily scurrying about...
**[05:28] Doki**
You annoying heroes!
**[05:32] Doki**
You're in the way... got it?!
**[05:37] Ai**
Me?
**[05:43] Shy**
I don't know what you're plotting...
**[05:45] Mianlong**
But as long as we're here...
**[05:48] Shy and Mianlong**
...you won't have your way!
**[05:50] Doki**
What? You wanna die?
**[05:52] Shy**
Did you do this to all these innocent people?
**[05:55] Doki**
Nope, that's not me.
**[05:57] Doki**
They're just a byproduct of this area.
**[06:00] Doki**
And no one cares about that!
**[06:04] Doki**
My name is Doki, the Wrathful Dragon.
**[06:08] Doki**
I'll beat you all to a pulp and destroy you!
**[06:14] Doki**
Or so I'd like to say...
**[06:18] Doki**
but I have no interest in you.
**[06:21] Doki**
Hey, you, Princess.
**[06:22] Doki**
I came here to kidnap you.
**[06:25] Ai**
What do you want with me?
**[06:28] Doki**
It's not me. It's what *she* wants.
**[06:32] Doki**
She's waiting at the top
of the tower for you.
**[06:35] Ai**
The top of the tower... I knew it.
**[06:39] Doki**
Well? You coming? Or do you
want me to destroy you?!
**[06:44] Lady Black**
I mean, we were heading
there in the first place.
**[06:50] Lady Black**
Guess that means whatever's
causing this is in that tower.
**[06:54] Lady Black**
What do you want to do, Leader?
**[06:55] Shy**
Um... Sh-Should we just head over there?
**[06:59] Mianlong**
Yes!
**[06:59] Spirit**
Sounds good.
**[07:01] Doki**
Hey! Wait a damn minute!
**[07:04] Lady Black**
What? You want us to go
to the tower, don't you?
**[07:07] Lady Black**
We're going, and she's coming with us.
**[07:09] Lady Black**
You got a problem?
**[07:13] Doki**
Huh?
**[07:14] Doki**
I'm supposed to take her over there...
**[07:16] Doki**
But if they're going... that works... too?
**[07:20] Lady**
Clearly he's an idiot. That's great.
**[07:23] Doki**
No, wait, damn it! I'm taking her! Just her!
**[07:27] Doki**
I don't need you heroes!
**[07:30] Lady**
Would you shut up already?
**[07:33] Lady**
What are you gonna do about
it, you cute little lizard?
**[07:39] Doki**
What did you just say?
**[07:42] Lady Black**
What? You didn't hear me?
**[07:45] Lady Black**
I said that you were a vewy,
vewy, cute little lizard.
**[07:48] Shy**
P-Piltz-san!
**[07:50] Doki**
Am... Am... Am...
**[07:54] Doki**
Am I really that cute?
**[07:59] Doki**
But just so you know,
flattery will get you nowhere!
**[08:04] Doki**
Oh, fine! Follow me! I'll take you
to the tower using the safe route.
**[08:10] Shy**
U-Um...
**[08:13] Lady Black**
I thought he was an idiot...
but I take that back.
**[08:18] Lady Black**
He's not an idiot. He's a huge idiot.
**[08:27] Shy**
U-Um... the people here are s-safe, right?
**[08:32] Doki**
Huh? Yeah, they're probably still safe.
**[08:35] Doki**
But they've been exposed to
Utsuro's heart for a while now.
**[08:39] Doki**
In another hour or so, they'll be empty.
**[08:43] Shy**
Empty?
**[08:45] Doki**
They'll lose their hearts.
**[08:47] Doki**
That's the nature of Utsuro's heart.
**[08:52] Spirit**
Did you say your name was Doki-san?
**[08:55] Doki**
What?
**[08:56] Spirit**
This Utsuro's at the tower, right?
**[08:59] Spirit**
Why is she waiting for Ai-chan?
**[09:01] Doki**
No idea. We don't interfere
with each other's hearts.
**[09:06] Doki**
We just help each other out with our dreams.
**[09:09] Spirit**
Hm... Dreams, eh?
**[09:13] Doki**
I have a dream, too!
**[09:15] Doki**
One day, I'm gonna collect them from
around the country... no, the world!
**[09:19] Doki**
I'm gonna collect all the cutest plushies!
**[09:21] Doki**
And then I'm gonna sleep
like a baby in their pile.
**[09:26] Doki**
Makes you jealous, huh?
**[09:29] Shy**
I-I see... I guess you
have a girly side, too...
**[09:36] Doki**
What did you just say?
**[09:38] Shy**
Huh? Um, well...
**[09:40] Shy**
Since you like plushies,
you seem girly and cute.
**[09:46] Doki**
Girly and cute?
**[10:01] Doki**
Girly?
**[10:03] Doki**
You're making it sound like guys
aren't allowed to like cute things!
**[10:08] Doki**
It pisses me off so much I could kill you!
**[10:11] Doki**
How dare you stomp on my manly
heart with your dirty feet?!
**[10:16] Doki**
I take back what I said!
**[10:19] Doki**
I'll murder all of you!
**[10:21] Shy**
What?! Why?!
**[10:25] Spirit**
Looks like you've done it again, Teru-chan!
**[10:33] Lady Black**
Aw, man. He was gonna be super useful, too.
**[10:36] Doki**
What's wrong with guys being cute?!
**[10:43] Lady**
Well, you definitely poked a sore spot.
**[10:50] Shy**
Shy...

**[11:00] Doki**
How dare you decide it's girly?!
**[11:04] Doki**
I'll take you and your
rotten sense of values...
**[11:07] Doki**
and destroy you all!
**[11:09] Lady**
He's coming.
**[11:09] Spirit**
Be careful!
**[11:11] Doki**
Rage!
**[11:18] Shy**
He trapped us in!
**[11:21] Doki**
You've got nowhere to go!
**[11:23] Doki**
Get crushed and disappear, heroes!
**[11:26] Ai**
What're we supposed to do about him?!

M-My body... won't move...
**[11:44] Shy**
That was amazing, Mianlong-san!
**[11:47] Mianlong**
I just knocked him out for a bit.
**[11:50] Mianlong**
Leader, I'll take care of things here.
**[11:52] Shy**
Huh?
**[11:53] Mianlong**
If what he said is correct,
**[11:55] Mianlong**
we have less than an hour before
these people lose their hearts.
**[12:00] Mianlong**
We don't have any time to waste here.
**[12:04] Lady Black**
It's too risky for you to stay behind alone!
**[12:06] Lady Black**
We don't even know what
kind of powers he has—
**[12:10] Lady**
What?
**[12:12] Shy**
All right. Let's leave this to Mianlong-san.
**[12:15] Lady Black**
What?! Are you serious?!
**[12:17] Shy**
I know just how strong Mianlong-san is.
**[12:21] Shy**
And I also know that he doesn't like to fight.
**[12:24] Shy**
And yet he said that he'd stay behind and fight.
**[12:28] Shy**
Our best option here is to believe
in him and continue forward.
**[12:34] Shy**
I trust you to have our backs, Mianlong-san!
**[12:37] Mianlong**
Right!
**[12:45] Mianlong**
Please take care of everyone.
**[12:47] Doki**
Stop messing with me!
**[12:50] Doki**
I'll bury the five of you!
You'll be pushing up daisies!
**[12:56] Mianlong**
That won't be possible.
**[12:57] Doki**
Huh?!
**[12:59] Mianlong**
Because everyone else has already left.
**[13:03] Doki**
What?!
**[13:05] Doki**
When did they run off?!
**[13:07] Doki**
You won't get away with ignoring me!
**[13:09] Mianlong**
Why are you in Amarariruku?
**[13:14] Doki**
And why would I to tell you that?!
**[13:19] Mianlong**
Y-You don't really seem like a bad person.
**[13:24] Mianlong**
So why are you doing this?
**[13:27] Doki**
Bad? That's all you lot ever think about.
**[13:31] Doki**
You're so obsessed with
what's good or what's bad!
**[13:35] Doki**
Do you have any idea
**[13:36] Doki**
how it feels to be ridiculed
under the guise of what's right?!
**[13:41] Doki**
I bet a woman like you would have no idea!
**[13:46] Doki**
When no one accepts how you look!
**[13:49] Doki**
The despair of being
denied what you wish for!
**[13:52] Doki**
Cute girls like you
**[13:55] Doki**
are allowed to sleep hugging plushies!
**[13:57] Doki**
You're allowed to wear frilly clothes!
**[13:59] Doki**
And the whole world accepts you!
**[14:02] Doki**
Because you're a cute girl!
**[14:07] Mianlong**
I'm a man!
**[14:09] Doki**
Huh?!
**[14:10] Doki**
Wha... What?!
**[14:12] Doki**
You're a guy, and you have those big,
puppy-dog eyes and that cute voice?!
**[14:16] Mianlong**
D-Don't call me cute!
**[14:19] Doki**
Damn it...
**[14:20] Mianlong BG**
Sparkle! Sparkle, sparkle!
**[14:21] Doki**
When you're that cute, you look
like you're made to hold plushies!
**[14:26] Mianlong**
N-No, I don't!
**[14:27] Mianlong BG**
A man... I'm a man... I'm a man...
**[14:28] Mianlong**
I wanna be a much stronger, cooler guy!
**[14:32] Doki**
You jerk! There's nothing
great about being cool!
**[14:36] Mianlong**
But there is! Since I was born
a man, I want to seem manly!
**[14:40] Doki**
Get real!
**[14:41] Doki**
Guys are supposed to strive to be cute!
**[14:43] Mianlong**
No, they aren't!
**[14:50] Doki**
Well, whatever.
**[14:52] Doki**
Let's settle things here and now!
**[14:55] Mianlong**
I don't want to fight, but I can't back down.
**[14:59] Mianlong**
Regardless of good or evil, this is...
**[15:03] Doki**
This is...
**[15:05] Mianlong and Doki**
...a battle between men!
**[15:18] Inori**
Apparently, Doki went to confront the heroes.
**[15:24] Inori**
But you know how Doki is.
**[15:26] Inori**
He's such a free spirit that he
may have forgotten everything.
**[15:30] Utsuro**
That's fine. They'll eventually come here.
**[15:35] Utsuro**
You can do as you please, too,
**[15:39] Utsuro**
Inori-sama.
**[15:42] Inori**
But of course, dreaming child.
**[15:46] Inori**
This is all to grant your wish.
**[15:50] Inori**
I shall go purge the heroes.
**[15:58] Utsuro**
Yes, a dream.
**[16:01] Utsuro**
There's no point.
**[16:04] Utsuro**
I don't need a heart, either.
**[16:10] Mianlong**
Slumbering Claws!
***SIGN*** Slumbering
***SIGN*** Claws
**[16:13] Doki**
Huh?
**[16:14] Doki**
What's that supposed to be?!
**[16:20] Mianlong**
*My Slumbering Claws had no effect?*
**[16:23] Doki**
Your attacks don't hurt me at all!
**[16:28] Mianlong**
You said earlier that
**[16:31] Mianlong**
you weren't accepted for
the way you wanted to look.
**[16:33] Mianlong**
Do you mean how you look right now?
**[16:37] Doki**
You sure do like pissing people off!
**[16:41] Mianlong**
I'm not trying to make you mad.
**[16:44] Mianlong**
Why are you so obsessed with masculinity?
**[16:47] Doki**
That's none of your business!
**[16:49] Doki**
Being a man is the way I choose to live!
**[16:51] Doki**
Are you also a piece of trash that
looks down on others' hearts?!
**[16:55] Mianlong**
No. I'm not.
**[16:57] Mianlong**
To me...
**[16:59] Mianlong**
You look cool because you follow your heart.
**[17:04] Doki**
Huh?!
**[17:05] Mianlong**
Because I'm weak, I always
have a hard time doing that.
**[17:10] Mianlong**
But you managed to see your
ideal vision of a man through,
**[17:13] Mianlong**
no matter what hardships you faced.
**[17:16] Mianlong**
That's just how I felt.
**[17:18] Doki**
Don't give me that crap!
**[17:20] Doki**
I'm cool? Screw that!
**[17:22] Doki**
Piss off with that flimsy sense of pity!
**[17:25] Doki**
You'll pay for that! I'll crush you!
**[17:29] Mianlong**
I can't let you crush me.
**[17:31] Mianlong**
Because I am also a man.
**[17:44] Spirit**
Teru-chan, stop!
**[17:52] Shy**
I-It's a person! I guess someone
was still safe in here!
**[17:56] Lady black**
Wait. Something seems off...
**[18:03] People**
Found them...
**[18:04] People**
Catch them...
**[18:04] Lady Black**
Wait, what the hell?
**[18:05] People**
Capture them...
**[18:07] Spirit**
They're probably being controlled,
just like last time.
**[18:12] Shy**
It'll be dangerous if we
get caught. Th-This way!
**[18:16] Shy**
They're coming from this way, too!
**[18:18] Lady Black**
No way!
**[18:19] Shy**
Wh-What should we do?!
**[18:21] Lady Black**
What do we do? I mean,
we can't take them down...
**[18:25] Ai**
Leave this to me.
**[18:27] Ai**
Ninja Art...
**[18:29] Ai**
Cherry Blossom Veil!
**[18:41] Ai**
Looks like we lost them.
**[18:43] Shy**
Was that a ninja technique?
**[18:45] Shy**
That was amazing!
**[18:46] Ai**
I'm not sure if it's really amazin'...
considering it won't work every time.
**[18:52] Ai**
If Tokimaru were here, we could've
used a different technique.
**[18:57] Ai**
What in the world is he
doin' at a time like this?
**[19:02] Spirit**
But I don't think we're
gonna get through this way.
**[19:06] Ai**
I wonder if there's a place around
here where there aren't any people.
**[19:11] Shy**
I'm not sure if a place like
that exists in the city...
**[19:15] Shy**
Oh!
**[19:16] Shy**
Th-There is a place in the city
where not many people are around
**[19:19] Shy**
that leads to a lot of places.
**[19:22] Lady Black**
Somewhere like that exists?
**[19:24] Shy**
Well...
**[19:29] Spirit**
I see! The railroad tracks!
**[19:31] Spirit**
I guess normal people wouldn't be down here.
**[19:34] Shy**
Yes. I'm pretty sure...
**[19:37] Shy**
that this leads to a place
very close to the tower.
**[19:40] Shy**
So we'll be able to get
there without being found.
**[19:47] Shy**
Ai-san! If this is too much
for you, we can slow down.
**[19:50] Lady Black**
Hey! I'm not about to let them catch
up to us because we took a break.
**[19:55] Lady Black**
Can you really be a ninja
with that little stamina?
**[19:59] Shy**
P-Piltz-san, wait!
**[20:00] Ai**
It's all right, Teru-san.
She's only speakin' the truth.
**[20:04] Ai**
A long time ago, my heart
was seriously wounded.
**[20:08] Ai**
Ever since then, I haven't been
able to do any strenuous exercise.
**[20:13] Lady Black**
Sorry I said something so mean.
**[20:16] Lady Black**
Let me make it up to you.
**[20:19] Ai**
Hey, um...
**[20:21] Lady Black**
There. We're all set.
**[20:23] Ai**
Y-You don't need to do this...
It's so much trouble...
**[20:27] Lady Black**
I'll have you know that I'm
pretty confident in my legs!
**[20:30] Lady Black**
Okay, let's pick up the pace, Leader!
**[20:32] Shy**
R-Right!
**[20:40] Shy**
Just up ahead! We're almost there!
**[20:42] Lady Black**
Wait, isn't that...
**[20:44] Shy**
"That"?
**[20:57] Shy**
A-A toy train?
**[21:06] Kufufu**
Ladies and something-or-others!
**[21:10] Kufufu**
I'm in charge of the railroad...
**[21:14] Kufufu**
It's me! Kufufu-san!
**[21:17] Shy**
She's...
**[21:19] Spirit**
The one that was with Mama.
**[21:22] Kufufu**
Hehehe.
**[21:24] Kufufu**
Now, my dear heroes, have you
heard of the trolley problem?
**[21:29] Kufufu**
You're a conductor on a train
that's zoomin' down those tracks.
**[21:33] Kufufu**
The tracks are split before you,
**[21:35] Kufufu**
and one track has five party people
while the other has one loner.
**[21:38] Kufufu**
Now, which track should you switch to
and zoom down to get the most laughs?
**[21:44] Kufufu**
Well? What would you do, heroes?
**[21:47] Shy**
Wh-What are you talking about?
**[21:49] Kufufu**
Oh, don't tell me your answer.
**[21:52] Kufufu**
Because you're about to
play it out in reality!
**[21:55] Kufufu**
Now, go forth! Zoomy zoom, packed train!
**[22:01] Shy**
*No way!*
**[22:03] Shy**
*There are people on board?!*

Nothing Is Permanent
**[02:02] Shy**
Please stop the train!
**[02:03] Shy**
What do you plan to do with these people?!
**[02:06] Kufufu**
Aw, you don't have to look so scary!
**[02:08] Kufufu**
You're supposed to have fun!
**[02:11] Shy**
Th-There's no way this is fun!
**[02:12] Shy**
People's lives are at stake here!
**[02:15] Kufufu**
This is probably exactly why...
**[02:17] Kufufu**
all you heroes die from
reality being too painful.
**[02:21] Shy**
Reality?
**[02:22] Spirit**
Teru-chan, this is bad!
**[02:24] Spirit**
There's another train up ahead.
**[02:26] Spirit**
If they keep going, they're gonna crash!
**[02:30] Spirit**
You two stop the train somehow.
**[02:33] Spirit**
I'll try to switch the tracks!
**[02:36] Kufufu**
Well, y'all seem busy.
**[02:39] Shy**
Just what are you trying to do?!
**[02:42] Kufufu**
What am I trying to do?
**[02:43] Kufufu**
What else?
**[02:45] Kufufu**
Fun stuff!
**[02:50] Lady Black**
Hello! Leader?! What are we gonna do?
**[02:52] Shy**
W-We need to stop this train first!
**[02:55] Lady**
How, though?!
**[03:03] Ai**
Teru-san!
**[03:05] Shy**
I-It won't stop!
**[03:08] Lady**
You dummy!
**[03:16] Spirit**
There are a lot of people over there, too.
**[03:19] Spirit**
I need to at least switch the tracks
so they don't run into each other.
**[03:23] Kufufu**
Hello!
**[03:26] Kufufu**
Really? You sure about that answer?
**[03:38] Kufufu**
Uh-oh. Now what are you gonna do?
**[03:40] Kufufu**
You can't buy any more time.
**[03:43] Kufufu**
You need to decide now!
**[03:48] Shy**
Piltz-san!
**[03:50] Lady**
Huh?
**[03:50] Shy**
Ai-san!
**[03:53] Kufufu**
Which one are you gonna watch die?
**[03:56] Kufufu**
Are you gonna let them crash into each
other and watch them both go squish?
**[04:00] Kufufu**
Or let one drop and go boom,
and let the other live?
**[04:04] Kufufu**
Would you rather not be involved in this?
**[04:10] Shy**
Pepesha-san!
**[04:13] Shy**
Switch the tracks, please!
**[04:16] Spirit**
Teru-chan?!
**[04:26] Lady**
Pull on this!
**[04:28] Lady**
Both of you!
**[04:31] Spirit**
Roger!
**[04:39] Shy**
*How much...*
**[04:41] Shy**
*Just how much did I regret it?*
**[04:44] Shy**
*How many times did I think about it?*
**[04:47] Shy**
*If only I were stronger back then...*
**[04:51] Shy**
*If only someone were by my side...*
**[04:54] Shy**
*But...*
**[04:56] Shy**
*But now...*
**[04:59] Shy**
*The hero's answer...*
**[05:23] Shy**
...has been "save everyone"
since a hundred years ago!
**[05:29] Kufufu**
Oho?
**[05:33] Shy**
You've lost!
**[05:36] Kufufu**
Thanks for playing with me?
**[05:38] Shy**
Playing?
**[05:43] Lady**
Hey, what is this?
**[05:46] Lady**
They're just mannequins!
**[05:50] Kufufu**
There's not even anyone to save,
and you were panicking so much!
**[05:55] Kufufu**
Now *that's* comedy!
**[05:57] Shy**
Stop messing around!
**[05:58] Shy**
What's the point in any of this?!
**[06:01] Kufufu**
There doesn't need to be a point.
**[06:02] Kufufu**
It's always a comedy as long as it's fun.
**[06:07] Kufufu**
Honestly, I'm not interested in this
place or anyone else's dreams at all!
**[06:15] Kufufu**
All I want is fun stuff and to be able to laugh.
**[06:21] Shy**
What did you just pull out?
**[06:23] Kufufu**
This is an incomplete life-form.
**[06:27] Kufufu**
It's missing a heart.
**[06:29] Kufufu**
It looks like this because
it doesn't have a heart.
**[06:32] Kufufu**
Isn't it unfortunate?
**[06:36] Kufufu**
That's why I'm gonna find one for it!
**[06:38] Kufufu**
A laughing heart!
**[06:42] Spirit**
You just don't give up, do you?!
**[06:47] Shy**
Are you all right, Pepesha-san?!
**[06:49] Spirit**
Yes, I'm fine.
**[06:51] Spirit**
But her... Since the last time
we saw her, she seems more...
**[06:58] Kufufu**
You protected me?
**[07:02] Kufufu**
Yeah... I knew it.
**[07:05] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan must be here.
**[07:08] Lady**
That's enough from you!
**[07:15] Kufufu**
I finally found you. We got to meet again.
**[07:20] Kufufu**
I'll make sure you laugh this time!
**[07:26] Kufufu**
We're always together! It's so much fun!
**[07:31] Kufufu**
There's not a single thing that's sad!
**[07:36] Shy**
*What... is this feeling?*
**[07:36] Kufufu**
As long as we're laughing, everything is fun!
**[07:41] Spirit**
It's okay. Leave this to me.
**[07:44] Spirit**
You go on ahead, Teru-chan.
**[07:46] Spirit**
I'm going to do my part.
**[07:49] Shy**
Pepesha-san...
**[07:52] Shy**
Right!
**[07:53] Shy**
Ai-san, Piltz-san!
**[07:55] Shy**
Let's leave this to Spirit
and prioritize our mission!
**[07:58] Lady**
H-Hey!
**[08:04] Spirit**
Are you just going to let them go?
**[08:07] Kufufu**
I don't care about anyone else's dreams.
**[08:10] Kufufu**
You're the only one I'm interested in.
**[08:14] Kufufu**
The one who killed Tzveta-chan...
**[08:17] Kufufu**
is you, isn't it?
**[08:22] Lady**
Hey! Are you really sure that was okay?
**[08:25] Lady**
Leaving Spirit behind like that...
That girl was crazy!
**[08:32] Shy**
I'm pretty sure she was just sad.
**[08:37] Shy**
I think there's a tremendous
sadness hidden behind her smile.
**[08:43] Shy**
I'm pretty sure Pepesha-san felt that, too.
**[08:46] Shy**
That's why she stayed behind.
**[08:49] Shy**
So she can face her and be there for her.
**[08:52] Lady**
But that's weird. It's almost
like you want to help them.
**[08:58] Ai**
Can we actually save them?
Even the guys in Amarariruku?
**[09:02] Lady**
A-Ai-san?
**[09:04] Ai**
I... After getting this far and
meetin' various Amarariruku members,
**[09:10] Ai**
I don't know what to do anymore.
**[09:13] Ai**
Amarariruku should be the enemy of the world.
**[09:17] Ai**
And yet those two just seemed
like innocent children.
**[09:22] Shy**
Ai-san...
**[09:24] Shy**
I knew it...
**[09:26] Shy**
You want to save the person who's
on top of that tower, right?
**[09:32] Ai**
When I first came here, I was
prepared to kill her if I had to.
**[09:40] Lady**
K-Kill her? What the heck happened?
**[09:45] Ai**
In my village, there were two katanas
that were handed down for generations.
**[09:52] Ai**
The first one is a blade that
leads people down the right path.
**[09:56] Ai**
The Heart Blade, Purity.
**[10:00] Ai**
The second one leads people
down the path of rage.
**[10:04] Ai**
The God Blade, Nihil.
**[10:07] Ai**
The peace and balance that were
upheld by the two opposing blades
**[10:11] Ai**
was suddenly destroyed one day.
**[10:17] Ai**
There were many casualties that
caused people to leave the village,
**[10:22] Ai**
and the God Blade Nihil also disappeared.
**[10:25] Ai**
The one who caused all of this
and the wielder of Nihil...
**[10:33] Ai**
is my younger twin sister, Mai Tennoji.
**[10:41] Ai**
Shy.
***SIGN*** Ai Tennoji

The princess of the Soga ninja village.
An expert at using ninja arts.
***SIGN*** A Few Years Ago
Soga Village
**[10:52] (Flashback) Master**
Ai and Mai, well done on your
spiritual training thus far.
**[10:59] (Flashback) Master**
As I acknowledge you both as true shinobi,
there is something I must tell you.
**[11:05] (Flashback) Master**
There are two katanas in Soga Village that
have been passed down for generations.
**[11:10] (Flashback) Master**
The blade that leads people
down the right path:
**[11:13] (Flashback) Master**
the Heart Blade, Purity.
**[11:14] (Flashback) Master**
And the blade that leads
people down the wrong path:
**[11:18] (Flashback) Master**
the God Blade, Nihil.
**[11:20] (Flashback) Ai**
Excuse me, Master!
**[11:22] (Flashback) Ai**
I understand why the katana with
the right path gets handed down.
**[11:26] (Flashback) Ai**
But why's the katana with
the wrong path still around?
**[11:30] (Flashback) Master**
That's a great question, Ai.
**[11:32] (Flashback) Master**
Good and evil change over time.
**[11:36] (Flashback) Master**
There's no guarantee that people can
always choose the right path, either.
**[11:41] (Flashback) Master**
These two blades are testing
the souls of the shinobi.
**[11:50] (Flashback) Ai**
Swords that represent the village, huh?
**[11:54] (Flashback) Ai**
I wonder what kinda powers they have.
**[11:57] (Flashback) Mai**
I can't say I'm that interested in them.
**[12:00] (Flashback) Mai**
Katanas seem so violent.
**[12:03] (Flashback) Ai**
There you go sayin' the most
un-shinobi-like things again.
**[12:06] (Flashback) Ai**
You'll never be able to hear the
hearts of the swords that way.
**[12:11] (Flashback) Mai**
Rather than any heart of a sword...
**[12:14] (Flashback) Mai**
If I could hear what the hearts of bugs
and birds and even plants had to say,
**[12:18] (Flashback) Mai**
that'd make me plenty happy.
**[12:25] (Flashback) Ai**
Hmph. Just because you're a little
better at trainin' than me...
**[12:29] (Flashback) Ai**
Mai, you moron!
**[12:37] (Flashback) Ai**
A b-b-bird!
**[12:40] (Flashback) Ai**
Did I hit it? I'm sorry for hurtin' ya!
**[12:44] (Flashback) Ai**
Er, wait.
**[12:45] (Flashback) Ai**
My shuriken's over here?
**[12:48] (Flashback) Ai**
Then did some animal get to ya?
**[12:52] (Flashback) Ai**
Then I guess it doesn't concern me...
**[13:00] (Flashback) Ai**
Mai!
**[13:01] (Flashback) Ai**
Help me out here!
**[13:08] (Flashback) Mai**
The poor thing...
**[13:11] (Flashback) Mai**
It must hurt so much...
**[13:14] Ai**
*At that moment, Mai was cryin'.*
**[13:17] Ai**
* She cried thinkin' about the pain this dirty,*
* nameless bird must've been feeling.*
**[13:23] Ai**
*Honestly, I couldn't really understand...*
**[13:27] Ai**
*But seeing that somehow made me envious.*
**[13:34] Ai**
* A few days later, that bird*
* happily went flyin' away.*
**[13:45] (Flashback) Mai**
Hey, now!
**[13:47] (Flashback) Mai**
Don't go hittin' bugs with those sticks.
**[13:50] (Flashback) Mai**
You need to be nice to them.
**[13:52] (Flashback) Boy A**
W-We're sorry.
**[13:55] (Flashback) Mai**
They say that even the
smallest bug has a soul.
**[13:59] (Flashback) Mai**
Even a tiny bug like this
is alive just like us.
**[14:05] (Flashback) Mai**
Make sure you don't forget that.
**[14:07] (Flashback) Boy A**
Okay...
**[14:09] (Flashback) Ai**
Well, look at you!
**[14:10] (Flashback) Ai**
Skippin' out on trainin'
and lecturin' others!
**[14:12] (Flashback) Ai**
Aren't we all high and mighty?
**[14:14] (Flashback) Mai**
Ai-nee... I'm done with my job, though.
**[14:18] (Flashback) Mai**
Are you done with your trainin'?
**[14:20] (Flashback) Ai**
Am I done with my trainin'?!
**[14:22] (Flashback) Ai**
Why are ya talkin' like it's just me?!
**[14:24] (Flashback) Ai**
Do you even plan on becomin' a proper shinobi?
**[14:27] (Flashback) Mai**
Ai-nee, you don't need to worry about me.
**[14:31] (Flashback) Mai**
I'm plenty happy even if I
don't become a proper shinobi.
**[14:34] (Flashback) Ai**
Now I'm mad!
**[14:36] (Flashback) Ai**
My li'l sister is a wimp!
**[14:37] (Flashback) Ai**
If yer gonna skip out on trainin',
I'll just have to train ya myself!
**[14:48] (Flashback) Ai**
Huh?
**[14:49] (Flashback) Mai**
Oh... I'm sorry, Ai-nee!
**[14:51] (Flashback) Mai**
You aren't hurt, are you?
**[14:53] (Flashback) Ai**
Sh-Shut up!
**[14:55] (Flashback) Ai**
I just slipped a little!
**[14:58] (Flashback) Mai**
Ai-nee... um...
**[15:01] (Flashback) Ai**
I'm goin' home!
**[15:03] Ai**
*What the hell?*
**[15:05] Ai**
*What the hell? What am I even tryin' to...*
**[15:16] Ai**
*My natural talent as a shinobi*
**[15:19] Ai**
*is no match for Mai's.*
**[15:24] Ai**
*Why am I the older sister?*
**[15:28] (Flashback) Master**
Do you really mean this, Mai?
**[15:32] (Flashback) Mai**
This is something I've
thought about for a long time.
**[15:37] (Flashback) Mai**
Times change.
**[15:39] (Flashback) Mai**
That's what you told us, Master.
**[15:42] (Flashback) Mai**
And you're right. There's no
need for shinobi anymore.
**[15:47] (Flashback) Mai**
I think Soga Village should be destroyed.
**[15:56] (Flashback) Ai**
Mai!
**[15:58] (Flashback) Ai**
Do ya really think our
village should be destroyed?
**[16:03] (Flashback) Mai**
You were listenin'?
**[16:05] (Flashback) Ai**
You're gonna deny the
existence of us shinobi?
**[16:08] (Flashback) Ai**
The shinobi that've dedicated
their lives to this world?
**[16:13] (Flashback) Mai**
Did you know there was a huge
fire in the village next door?
**[16:17] (Flashback) Ai**
Huh?
**[16:19] (Flashback) Mai**
Shinobi live away from civilization,
so they can't ask others for help.
**[16:23] (Flashback) Mai**
And because of that, many people,
animals, and nature itself
**[16:29] (Flashback) Mai**
were swallowed up by that fire.
**[16:32] (Flashback) Mai**
We're too ignorant about the outside world.
**[16:35] (Flashback) Ai**
So since we're barely
connected to the outside world,
**[16:38] (Flashback) Ai**
our village shouldn't exist?
**[16:42] (Flashback) Mai**
The times... The people are
changin' into somethin' different.
**[16:49] (Flashback) Mai**
You'll realize it someday, too.
**[16:53] (Flashback) Ai**
Mai...
**[16:58] (Flashback) Ai**
Ugh, this don't feel right!
**[17:00] (Flashback) Ai**
I can't even concentrate on my trainin'!
**[17:02] (Flashback) Ai**
I don't even know how to act with Mai now!
**[17:16] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
Are you all right?
**[17:18] (Flashback) Ai**
Who the hell're you?!
**[17:22] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
I apologize for not introducing myself.
My name is Tokimaru.
**[17:25] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
Please forgive me for my sudden rudeness.
**[17:27] (Flashback) Ai**
Tokimaru? I ain't seen
you around here before.
**[17:30] (Flashback) Ai**
Just who are you?
**[17:31] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
I came here yesterday from
the village next door.
**[17:34] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
I wanted to serve the Tennoji family.
**[17:37] (Flashback) Ai**
The village next door? Where's yer family?
**[17:40] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
I have no family.
**[17:42] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
Please allow me to serve you, Ai-sama.
**[17:44] (Flashback) Ai**
Yeah, but... I'm still trainin' myself.
**[17:50] (Flashback) Ai**
Tokimaru, how much ninjutsu do ya know?
**[17:53] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
Um... a little.
**[17:56] (Flashback) Ai**
Well, if ya become my student
and train to be a shinobi,
**[18:00] (Flashback) Ai**
I guess I wouldn't mind
talkin' to my master for ya.
**[18:03] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
Oh!
**[18:04] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
That would be wonderful, thank you.
**[18:06] (Flashback) Mai**
Uh-huh...
**[18:11] (Flashback) Mai**
Is your mom all better now?
**[18:14] (Flashback) Mai**
I see. Glad to hear it!
**[18:18] (Flashback) Ai**
Come on! Pick up the pace already!
**[18:21] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
Yes, ma'am!
**[18:23] (Flashback) Mai**
A-Ai-nee? What're you doin'?
**[18:26] (Flashback) Ai**
What does it look like, Mai? I'm trainin'!
**[18:28] (Flashback) Ai**
What're ya doin', enjoyin' tea with a bear?
**[18:31] (Flashback) Ai**
Wait, a bear?!
**[18:32] (Flashback) Ai**
What're ya even doin'?! That's dangerous!
**[18:35] (Flashback) Mai**
This little one ain't dangerous at all.
**[18:37] (Flashback) Mai**
More importantly, who's that?
**[18:40] (Flashback) Ai**
This is Tokimaru! He's my student
who came from the next village over.
**[18:44] (Flashback) Mai**
Er, "student"?
**[18:46] (Flashback) Ai**
Hey, don't even think about it!
**[18:48] (Flashback) Ai**
Tokimaru's my student!
**[18:50] (Flashback) Ai**
Only I can use him!
**[18:51] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
Oh, no. If you ever need anything,
Mai-sama, please tell me.
**[18:55] (Flashback) Ai**
Hey! Don't go betrayin' me!
**[18:57] (Flashback) Mai**
Then why don't we have some tea together?
**[19:01] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
As you wish.
**[19:02] (Flashback) Ai**
Wha—
**[19:03] (Flashback) Ai**
What the heck?!
**[19:11] Ai**
*After Tokimaru came to our village,*
**[19:13] Ai**
* strangely enough, Mai*
* seemed happier than before.*
**[19:21] Ai**
* Before I knew it, I was talkin'*
* normally to her again, too.*
**[19:25] Ai**
* The three of us were always*
* playin' shinobi games.*
***SIGN*** Shinobi
**[19:32] Ai**
*The time the three of us spent together*
**[19:34] Ai**
* was like rememberin' the fun*
* times we'd long forgotten.*
**[19:40] Ai**
* I really thought the three of us would be*
* able to live happily ever after forever.*
**[19:45] Ai**
*At least... that's what I thought.*
**[19:51] (Flashback) Villager**
Fire! Everyone, get to safety!
**[19:54] (Flashback) Villager**
The fire's spreadin' everywhere!
**[19:56] (Flashback) Villager**
Get out of the village!
***SIGN*** Shinobi
**[20:01] (Flashback) Ai**
What... What're you doin'...
**[20:04] (Flashback) Ai**
Mai?!
**[20:07] (Flashback) Mai**
Ai-nee.
**[20:09] (Flashback) Mai**
Flames represent burials.
**[20:13] (Flashback) Mai**
Lives turn to ash so they
can return to nothing.
**[20:18] (Flashback) Mai**
This is a burial for all
of the lives we'd taken.
**[20:23] (Flashback) Ai**
What are you...
**[20:30] (Flashback) Ai**
Ma—
**[20:33] (Flashback) Ai**
Ma...i...
**[20:37] (Flashback) Ai**
Wh-Why?
**[20:40] (Flashback) Mai**
Say, Ai-nee.
**[20:42] (Flashback) Mai**
If we didn't have hearts...
**[20:50] (Flashback) Mai**
and all the pain in this world disappeared...
**[20:56] (Flashback) Mai**
Maybe we would've never hated anyone.
**[21:01] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
Ai-sama?! Ai-sama!
**[21:04] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
Ai-sama!
**[21:08] Ai**
If I'm bein' honest, I still have no
idea how Mai ended up like that.
**[21:14] Ai**
But as a rule of my village,
I have to cut Mai down since she left.
**[21:19] Ai**
I'm still tryin' to figure out
if there's any other way...
**[21:26] Shy**
Then let's try to find a solution together.
**[21:30] Shy**
Your little sister... Mai-san... must be someone
who can understand the sadness of others.
**[21:36] Shy**
I can't imagine someone like that
actually losing their heart.
**[21:42] Shy**
I believe that even some of the people
within Amarariruku still have a kind heart.
**[21:49] Ai**
Teru-san...
**[21:53] Inori**
Are you done talking?
**[21:57] Lady**
A new enemy?!
**[22:00] Inori**
Let us now begin a dream!

It's okay. Leave this to me.
**[00:09] Spirit**
You go on ahead, Teru-chan.
**[00:11] Spirit**
I'm going to do my part.
**[00:13] Shy**
Right!
**[00:17] Spirit**
Are you just going to let them go?
**[00:19] Kufufu**
I don't care about anyone else's dreams.
**[00:22] Kufufu**
The one who killed Tzveta-chan...
**[00:25] Kufufu**
is you, isn't it?
***SIGN*** Episode 19:
Because of Love
**[01:58] Spirit**
Hey, I always thought it was weird.
**[02:02] Spirit**
Why do you force yourself to smile like that?
**[02:07] Kufufu**
Force myself? How am I forcing myself?
**[02:11] Kufufu**
I mean, a smile is a charm.
**[02:14] Kufufu**
As long as you're smiling,
no pain can hurt you.
**[02:18] Kufufu**
Everyone in Amarariruku
**[02:21] Kufufu**
says that they hate adults,
**[02:24] Kufufu**
but I don't hate them that much.
**[02:27] Kufufu**
Because... because...
**[02:31] Kufufu**
Adults smile even when they
can't smile, don't they?
**[02:35] Kufufu**
They smile as a lie.
**[02:37] Kufufu**
They smile when they're hurt!
**[02:41] Kufufu**
They smile when they lose
something important to them!
**[02:45] Kufufu**
They smile even if they're not having fun.
**[02:47] Kufufu**
I definitely want to become
an amazing adult like that!
**[02:53] Kufufu**
You're always smiling, too!
**[02:55] Kufufu**
I want to be like you!
**[02:59] Kufufu**
Huh?
**[03:00] Spirit**
I get it. I understand what you're saying.
**[03:04] Spirit**
Because, just like you,
I had a hard time smiling.
**[03:09] Kufufu**
You think I have a hard time smiling?
**[03:13] Kufufu**
Are you joking right now?
**[03:15] Spirit**
I'm not.
**[03:17] Spirit**
That's how it looks.
**[03:19] Kufufu**
I see. Then...
**[03:23] Kufufu**
I can't smile!
**[03:31] Spirit**
Swinging this thing around isn't
going to make anyone smile.
**[03:36] Spirit**
I'm sure you know that, too.
**[03:39] Kufufu**
"Know"? "Know" what?
**[03:43] Kufufu**
You're just an adult. You're always
drinking alcohol and smiling.
**[03:48] Kufufu**
What's so fun about that?
**[03:51] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan was really
important to you, right?
**[03:55] Kufufu**
So smiling really is a charm?
**[03:58] Kufufu**
Are you happy she's gone
because you hated her?
**[04:04] Kufufu**
Are you smiling because you just don't care?
**[04:07] Kufufu**
Does the alcohol make you forget everything?
**[04:10] Kufufu**
Well? Why is it?
**[04:21] Kufufu**
You're still... smiling...
**[04:25] Spirit**
Yes.
**[04:26] Spirit**
But I'm not smiling for the
reason you're thinking of.
**[04:32] Spirit**
The person I loved was still loved
by someone even after being reborn.
**[04:39] Spirit**
That makes me so happy.
**[04:42] Kufufu**
What are you even talking about?
**[04:44] Kufufu**
You're messed up in the head.
**[04:46] Kufufu**
I'm your enemy...
**[04:49] Kufufu**
You should hate me.
**[04:52] Spirit**
You think so?
**[04:54] Spirit**
Would an actual bad guy
say something like that?
**[04:58] Kufufu**
That's just weird, though.
**[05:01] Spirit**
Why did you respect my
mama... Tzveta so much?
**[05:08] Kufufu**
Tzveta-chan...
**[05:11] Kufufu**
never smiled.
**[05:14] Kufufu**
So I always wanted to make her smile.
**[05:19] Kufufu**
I always chased her around,
but she always just looked annoyed.
**[05:25] Kufufu**
But...
**[05:28] Kufufu**
Even when she looked annoyed,
she always played with me.
**[05:34] Kufufu**
It was the first time someone stayed
by my side and didn't run away.
**[05:39] Kufufu**
She was so cold, but somehow warm...
**[05:42] Kufufu**
Strange yet comforting...
**[05:44] Kufufu**
I just wanted to stay by her forever.
**[05:47] Spirit**
Yes.
**[05:48] Spirit**
You're right. That's how she was.
**[05:52] Kufufu**
Say, what did Tzveta-chan
look like in the end?
**[05:58] Spirit**
She was smiling.
**[06:01] Spirit**
She looked truly happy.
**[06:06] Kufufu**
I see.
**[06:08] Kufufu**
You can go on ahead if you want.
**[06:11] Kufufu**
I'm tired now.
**[06:26] Kufufu**
You're not going to go to your friends?
**[06:29] Spirit**
I feel like talking to you a little longer.
**[06:38] Kufufu**
What the heck?
**[06:40] Kufufu**
You're so weird.
**[06:43] Kufufu**
There really is something
wrong with your head.
**[06:46] Kufufu**
You guys are gonna lose.
**[06:49] Spirit**
You think so?
**[06:51] Spirit**
Even without me, those
girls aren't going to lose.
**[06:56] Spirit**
The hero I gave my spirit to
**[07:00] Spirit**
has the power to light up the world.
**[07:08] Inori**
Let us now begin a dream!
**[07:12] Inori**
Dreams need love.
**[07:15] Inori**
And humans need rings of love.
**[07:22] Inori**
I give this invitation of love to Ai-san alone.
**[07:26] Ai**
Whoa! What is this?!
**[07:28] Shy**
A-Ai-san!
**[07:30] Inori**
Come, now.
**[07:31] Inori**
Utsuro is waiting up top for you.
**[07:33] Inori**
Enjoy a dreamy trip up to the heavens.
**[07:37] Shy**
No! She's gonna...
**[07:38] Ai**
Teru-san! I'll be fine!
**[07:41] Ai**
I'll talk things out with Mai!
**[07:43] Ai**
Don't worry about me!
You two protect this world!
**[07:48] Inori**
Now, you two should watch how
everything plays out with me.
**[07:57] Shy**
You can't keep me tied up
with something like that!
**[08:00] Shy**
Give Ai-san back!
**[08:02] Lady**
You dummy! Don't just carelessly...
**[08:09] Inori**
An arrow of love for the poor little lamb.
**[08:19] Shy**
Piltz-san!
**[08:24] Shy**
Piltz-san! Oh, no...
**[08:27] Inori**
Oh, dear. You decided to get shot
by the arrow of love yourself?
**[08:32] Shy**
Why would you do something so awful?!
**[08:35] Inori**
Because of love.
**[08:37] Shy**
What are you even talking about?!
***SIGN*** Smooch
**[08:40] Lady**
Smooch.
**[08:42] Shy**
Huh?
**[08:44] Lady**
Hold me a little more gently, Shy.
**[08:49] Shy**
Wh-Wh-Wh-Wh-Wha—
**[08:51] Inori**
Love is the strongest force in this world.
**[08:55] Inori**
Those struck by the arrow
of love awaken to love.
**[09:00] Shy**
Th-The ring above her head...
**[09:04] Shy**
Is she being controlled?!
**[09:06] Shy**
P-Please stop this, Piltz-san!
**[09:09] Shy**
P-Please wake up!
**[09:12] Lady**
I've just awakened... to my love for you.
**[09:17] Lady**
See?
**[09:22] Lady**
Those wounds hurt, don't they?
**[09:25] Lady**
No need to act tough.
**[09:29] Lady**
Why don't we give you a shot?
**[09:32] Shy**
That's huge.
**[09:35] Shy**
N-No! Shots are scary!
**[09:40] Inori**
How wonderful!
**[09:42] Inori**
This is how the ring of love will
spread and envelop the world!
**[09:49] Lady**
Now, Shy...
**[09:51] Lady**
Don't be shy. Just relax...
**[10:00] Lady**
You can't be serious!
**[10:06] Lady**
That was so pathetic,
my eyes are tearing up!
**[10:10] Lady**
You've mocked the soul of a nurse!
**[10:13] Lady**
You're not...
**[10:16] Lady**
gonna get away with this!
**[10:19] Shy**
Piltz-san!
**[10:21] Lady**
Shy! You go after Ai-san!
**[10:24] Lady**
I'm gonna send this wannabe angel flying!
**[10:28] Inori**
What a violent person...
**[10:32] Inori**
It seems you need to be
baptized in love a bit more.
**[10:38] Lady**
Shy! What are you doing?
Hurry up and get going!
**[10:42] Shy**
B-But I can't leave you alone...
**[10:45] Lady**
Do you think I can't fight or something?
**[10:50] Lady**
Don't underestimate me!
**[10:51] Lady**
I'm also a hero who's here to protect lives!
**[10:56] Inori**
Oh, how brave.
**[10:58] Inori**
I believe this is what they
call the love between friends.
**[11:02] Inori**
But of course. You two did
just share a loving kiss.

O-Okay!
**[11:19] Shy**
Piltz-san! I'll leave this to you!
**[11:22] Inori**
You never learn. You cannot escape my love—
**[11:28] Inori**
Oh, my!
**[11:29] Lady**
I guess you never learn, either!
**[11:32] Lady**
I won't let you lay a finger on her!
**[11:37] Lady**
In return, I'm leaving my

Y-You're just sleepy after all those attacks?

You should be dead asleep by now!
**[12:26] Doki**
How the heck am I supposed to sleep?!
**[12:28] Doki**
There's so much in this

**[12:31] Doki**
Everyone just keeps blaming everyone

**[12:35] Doki**
It all just pisses me off to no end!

This next attack should...
**[13:19] Doki**
The hell are you doing?!
**[13:22] Mianlong**
I-I've run out of strength...
**[13:27] Doki**
You're so pathetic! Then I'll finish you off...
**[13:32] Doki**
It's no use! I can't move even one step!

And you're quite cute yourself.
**[13:59] Mianlong**
I can't believe I'm saying that to an enemy.
**[14:05] Doki**
What the hell are we talking about?
**[14:08] Mianlong**
I-I don't know, either.
**[14:15] Doki**
Here.
**[14:18] Mianlong**
Th-Thanks.
**[14:24] Doki**
Damn it. I can't.
**[14:26] Doki**
I can't keep my eyes open any longer.
**[14:29] Mianlong**
Doki-san...
**[14:31] Mianlong**
You could've attacked me just now.
**[14:34] Mianlong**
So why...
**[14:35] Doki**
Shut up. Like I'd know.
**[14:38] Doki**
I just... sort of...
**[14:41] Doki**
didn't care anymore after fighting with you.
**[14:49] Doki**
I'm so tired...
**[14:51] Doki**
Damn it.
**[14:52] Mianlong**
I wonder how we would've ended
up if we'd met a different way,
**[14:58] Mianlong**
Doki-san.
**[15:00] Mianlong**
Do...
**[15:01] Mianlong**
H-He's dead...
**[15:05] Mianlong**
You were able to forget your rage in
the end before your soul departed.
**[15:09] Mianlong**
Your rage...
**[15:16] Mianlong**
Gently...
**[15:19] Mianlong**
Huh?
**[15:20] Doki**
Hey...
**[15:22] Doki**

**[15:25] Mianlong**
You're awake!
**[15:27] Doki**
I'm wide awake thanks to you, dumbass!
**[15:30] Mianlong**
Well, your bangs were covering your
face this whole time, so I got curious!
**[15:34] Doki**
Shut up! How dare you try to
find out someone's secret?!
**[15:37] Doki**
I'll murder you!
**[15:39] Mianlong**
I won't lef youf killf me!

**[15:52] Shy**
Are you all right?
**[15:54] Ai**
I-I'm fine.
**[15:56] Ai**
What happened down below?
**[15:58] Shy**
I let Piltz-san handle that.
**[16:01] Shy**
Let's head up together...
**[16:03] Shy**
so we can end this darkness.
**[16:09] Utsuro**
It's finally time.
**[16:15] Shy**
Ai-san, don't push yourself too much.
**[16:18] Ai**
Honestly, I'm so scared,
I can barely stand it...
**[16:20] Ai**
but this ain't too much.
**[16:25] Ai**
For the sake of this world...
**[16:29] Ai**
I've already made my choice!
**[16:37] Utsuro**
Ah, Ai-nee. It's been a while.
**[16:41] Ai**
The hell are you just drinkin' tea for?!
**[16:43] Utsuro**
Well, you took too long.
**[16:45] Utsuro**
Of course I'd want some tea.
**[16:47] Ai**
Take this more seriously!
**[16:49] Ai**
Do you know what it took
for me to come here?!
**[16:53] Utsuro**
I see you're as rowdy as ever.
**[16:56] Utsuro**
You didn't come all this
way to yell, did you?
**[16:59] Ai**
We've come here to stop you!
**[17:02] Ai**
Release everyone!
**[17:04] Utsuro**
Release everyone, huh?
**[17:07] Utsuro**
Sure.
**[17:12] Utsuro**
If you can kill me, that is.
**[17:16] Ai**
Y-You're gonna get hurt
if you underestimate me!
**[17:19] Ai**
I'm not like how I used to be!
**[17:21] Utsuro**
You. Miss Hero.
**[17:23] Utsuro**
If you're plannin' on fighting me,
too, you better try an' kill me.
**[17:27] Shy**
I won't kill you.
**[17:29] Shy**
I'm going to do my best to save
everyone in this town, including you!
**[17:34] Utsuro**
I'm pretty sure I've heard that line before.
**[17:37] Utsuro**
Have we met before?
**[17:39] Utsuro**
Wait, your face...
**[17:42] Utsuro**
So that's it...
**[17:46] Utsuro**
No need for pity.
**[17:48] Utsuro**
We all die someday anyway.
**[17:50] Utsuro**
Anyway, that's enough talk.
Let's fight fair and square—
**[17:54] Ai**
Wait, Mai! This is messed up!
**[17:58] Ai**
You'd never do somethin' like this!
**[18:01] Ai**
You're the one who said
every life is precious!
**[18:04] Ai**
There's no way you'd wish to harm people!
**[18:08] Ai**
There has to be some reason for this, right?
**[18:10] Shy**
Ai-san...
**[18:12] Ai**
They're just usin' you! I'm sure
you don't really wanna do this!
**[18:17] Utsuro**
Ai-nee.
**[18:22] Ai**
Mai!
**[18:25] Utsuro**
Yeah. This is messed up, Ai-nee.
**[18:29] Ai**
E-Exactly! It's messed up!
**[18:32] Ai**
I'm glad you realized that!
**[18:36] Utsuro**
You really are somethin', Ai-nee.
**[18:39] Utsuro**
You always just...
**[18:41] Shy**
Ai-san!
**[18:49] Ai**
Teru-san!
**[18:51] Utsuro**
I always hated how you could laugh
**[18:55] Utsuro**
without knowin' a damn thing.
**[18:58] Ai**
Mai... I guess you really aren't comin' back.
**[19:02] Utsuro**
Ai-nee. Don't let me down.
**[19:05] Utsuro**
Come at me like you're gonna kill me.
**[19:08] Utsuro**
Or else... I'm really
gonna kill you next time.

How'd you do it before?
**[02:16] Stigma**
Oh, right. Didn't you cut their finger off?
**[02:24] Stigma**
What will you do this time?
**[02:33] Stardust**
I'm not sure what you're expecting of me,
**[02:37] Stardust**
but we've done a bit of
research on this thing, too.
**[02:42] Stardust**
If we try to take the ring off
shortly after it's been put on,
**[02:45] Stardust**
it apparently comes off pretty easily.
**[02:48] Stigma**
Ah, so you noticed.
**[02:51] Stigma**
I was worried that you might do
something unnecessarily cruel again.
**[02:55] Stardust**
What a petty hobby.
**[02:58] Stardust**
Weren't you taught to be nice to girls?
**[03:03] Stigma**
Quabala-chan, you're up.
**[03:06] Stigma**
Go fight him.
**[03:07] Quabala**
Huh? Er, what? I-I don't
know about fighting...
**[03:11] Quabala**
A-And, I mean... Even he just
said to be nice to girls...
**[03:17] Stigma**
Quabala-chan.
**[03:20] Stigma**
Go.
**[03:23] Quabala**
Okay.
**[03:26] Stardust**
Are you sure about this?
**[03:28] Stardust**
You really don't seem like you want to do it.
**[03:31] Quabala**
O-O-O-Of course I'm not sure!
Q-Quit messing with me!
**[03:34] Quabala**
E-E-Even I don't wanna
do something this scary!
**[03:39] Quabala**
B-B-But having Stigma-sama hate me...
**[03:43] Quabala**
is even scarier!
**[03:53] Stardust**
If you're scared, then you should've
just listened to your heart.
**[04:00] Quabala**
W-W-Wait! Didn't you just say to be nice to...
**[04:03] Stardust**
But you're an enemy.
**[04:05] Quabala**
No! P-P-Please don't kill me!
**[04:10] Quabala**
I...
**[04:12] Quabala**
I'm dead.
**[04:16] Stardust**
Just kidding.
**[04:19] Stardust**
Now, then. Looks like you're
the only one left, boss.
**[04:24] Stigma**
Well, this isn't good, Quabala-chan.
**[04:28] Stigma**
I was hoping you'd hold out a little longer.
**[04:31] Stardust**
If you'll get rid of this
black orb that's in the way,
**[04:34] Stardust**
I'll settle for just knocking you out.
**[04:38] Stigma**
Ah, that's too bad.
**[04:41] Stigma**
I can't make this disappear.
**[04:44] Stigma**
Sorry.
**[04:51] Stardust**
Nah, you don't need to apologize.
**[04:54] Stardust**
You're just going to be in a bit more pain.
**[05:01] Stigma**
Say, what do you think is the thing that
is the most easily felt in people's hearts?

That's strange. No attack

**[06:13] Quabala**
Wh-Wh-Whenever I catch a human from behind,
**[06:15] Quabala**
they'll be possessed by me.
**[06:18] Quabala**
A-A-And my heart will take over

Wh-Wh-Which means that you

**[07:45] Quabala**
The bigger the fear in your heart gets,
**[07:49] Quabala**
th-th-the stronger I become.
**[07:53] Quabala**
I-I-I'm going to scare you even more!
**[08:00] Stardust**
Scare me, eh?
**[08:03] Stigma**
How does it feel, Stardust?
**[08:06] Stardust**
Honestly, it doesn't.
**[08:08] Stardust**
Make me some tea. I'm exhausted.
**[08:12] Stigma**
I'm very aware that you have a strong heart.
**[08:16] Stigma**
But most people aren't like that.
**[08:20] Stigma**
Everyone who's watching you right now
has fear seeping into their hearts.
**[08:27] Stigma**
If a powerful hero goes down,
**[08:29] Stigma**
the hope that's in weak
hearts will disappear.
**[08:33] Stigma**
Yes...
**[08:36] Stigma**
The seeds of fear that we sow will sprout,
**[08:39] Stigma**
and weak hearts will fear
me and long for salvation.
**[08:47] Stardust**
Weak, eh?
**[08:51] Stardust**
I met someone like this before.
**[08:54] Stardust**
No matter how you looked at her,
she was weak and terrified.
**[08:58] Stardust**
No matter how much she got hit
or hurt, she couldn't get mad.
**[09:03] Stardust**
She was a spineless child.
**[09:06] Stardust**
But it was her weakness that
stirred my unmoving heart.
**[09:14] Stardust**
Stigma, you'd best not underestimate
**[09:17] Stardust**
the weakness of people...
and the power born of that weakness.
**[09:23] Quabala**
W-Wait! I-I-If you kill me, you're gonna die!
**[09:27] Quabala**
A-A-Aren't you scared?
**[09:40] Stigma**
You know...
**[09:43] Stigma**
You seem way weaker than
when I first met you.
**[09:48] Stigma**
I didn't think you'd hold back so much.
**[09:51] Stardust**
Yeah, that's right.
**[09:55] Stardust**
Because I remembered...
**[10:23] Stardust**
that I want to become the nicest guy
**[10:29] Stardust**
in the world.
**[10:34] Stardust**
Shy.

**[10:44] Stardust**
I'm sure you can do better than that,
**[10:47] Stardust**
Stigma.
**[10:49] Stardust**
You're overestimating me.
**[10:51] Stigma**
I'm very delicate, you know.
**[10:56] Quabala**
S-S-S-Stigma-sama! I-I-I-I'm so sorry!
**[11:01] Quabala**
Th-This happened because you protected me!
**[11:04] Stigma**
I'm fine, Quabala-chan.
**[11:07] Stigma**
My body is a small price to pay.
**[11:11] Stardust**
Exactly who are you?
**[11:14] Stigma**
I'm a dreamer.
**[11:17] Stigma**
And the seeds of that dream
have already been sown.
**[11:21] Stigma**
Once this black orb of a shell is split open,
**[11:24] Stigma**
an immense wave of fear
will come flowing out.
**[11:28] Stigma**
And then,
**[11:30] Stigma**
it'll spread throughout the world
at an incredible speed,
**[11:34] Stigma**
and the seeds of fear embedded
in people's hearts will sprout.
**[11:39] Stardust**
Then why don't you go ahead and
shatter this so-called shell?
**[11:43] Stigma**
I can't split it open.
**[11:45] Stigma**
It can only be destroyed from the inside.
**[11:49] Stigma**
And once the seeds of fear bloom,
**[11:54] Stigma**
everyone in the world can
become a part of Amarariruku.
**[12:00] Stigma**
They'll all become one with my heart.
**[12:03] Stigma**
They'll stop fighting and
competing with each other.
**[12:07] Stigma**
Everyone will be equal and equally free.
**[12:11] Stigma**
This will be the first step
to this wonderful world.
**[12:15] Stigma**
Their fear will break through their bodies,
**[12:18] Stigma**
everyone will become the same as me,
**[12:21] Stigma**
and we will all live in this dream forever.
**[12:25] Stardust**
Talk about dumb.
**[12:28] Stardust**
In the end, you're just some selfish
child who wants to control others.
**[12:32] Stigma**
Yup.
**[12:37] Stigma**
I am a child.
**[12:39] Stigma**
I want a world where we can remain children.
**[12:43] Stigma**
I'm done here.
**[12:46] Stigma**
I'll just be waiting around patiently...
**[12:49] Stigma**
for the heroes to split open that shell.
**[12:53] Stardust**
You're not getting away!
**[13:01] Stardust**
Damn it. Well, this isn't good.
**[13:06] Stardust**
* Century, is it possible to get in contact*
* with the group inside the black orb?*
**[13:10] Century**
The ones in the orb?
**[13:11] Century**
We haven't been able to
reach them for a while now.
**[13:14] Stardust**
This is an emergency.
**[13:16] Stardust**
Even if Shy and the others are
able to destroy that black orb,
**[13:19] Stardust**
we might end up with casualties
all around the world.
**[13:22] Stardust**
If we can't contact them,
I'll just go tell them myself.
**[13:26] Shrimpy**
It's too dangerous to go in on your own.
**[13:29] Century**
*I'll go with you.*
**[13:30] Stardust**
But if Stigma shows up again...
**[13:33] Tokimaru**
Wait!
**[13:38] Tokimaru**
Could you let me handle this?
**[13:41] Stardust**
Who are you?
**[13:48] Utsuro**
Come on, you two.
**[13:51] Utsuro**
If you don't take this seriously,
**[13:54] Utsuro**
I can't even muster the will to kill you.
**[14:01] Shy**
*She's strong...*
**[14:02] Ai**
Hmph! You keep talkin' about killin',
**[14:05] Ai**
but you sure talk big for someone
who couldn't even step on a bug.
**[14:08] Ai**
Like you've ever even killed someone before!
**[14:12] Ai**
I'll smack some sense back into ya until
you turn back into your old, kind self!
**[14:18] Utsuro**
It really must be nice.
**[14:20] Utsuro**
I envy you, Ai-nee.
**[14:24] Utsuro**
You still believe that I and
the other shinobi are pure.
**[14:30] Utsuro**
I envy the way your eyes
sparkle as you believe that.
**[14:34] Ai**
What're you talkin' about?
**[14:36] Utsuro**
I did kill.
**[14:38] Ai**
Huh?
**[14:40] Utsuro**
Lots of people.
**[14:42] Utsuro**
In a filthy way, in the name of justice...
**[14:46] Utsuro**
One after another, after another,
after another, after another...
**[14:50] Utsuro**
My hands were soaked
in the blood of my victims.
**[14:55] Utsuro**
So... please.
**[15:00] Utsuro**
Please kill me with those
clean hands of yours, Ai-nee.
**[15:07] Ai**
No... That can't be right.
**[15:10] Ai**
You loved and cherished
even the smallest lives...
**[15:15] Ai**
There's no way you could kill people.
**[15:19] Utsuro**
I guess you're gonna try to run
away from reality as usual,
**[15:25] Utsuro**
Ai-nee.
**[15:28] Ai**
The real Mai wouldn't talk like that!
**[15:31] Shy**
Ai-san! stay calm!
**[15:33] Ai**
Don't get in my way!
**[15:35] Ai**
Don't you dare insult my little sister!
**[15:37] Ai**
You imposter!
**[15:42] Ai**
*This is... Mai's...*
**[15:46] Utsuro**
Now do you believe me?
**[15:59] Ai**
Truly...
**[16:00] Ai**
Mai... I always admired you!
**[16:04] Ai**
Not because you were skilled or
because everyone respected you.
**[16:08] Ai**
But I really loved your kind heart.
**[16:12] Ai**
Who the hell changed you?!
**[16:15] Ai**
Who's the one who turned the
little sister I admired into this?!
**[16:19] Utsuro**
I've always been like this.
**[16:23] Utsuro**
It's just that when I met him, I realized...
**[16:26] Utsuro**
my true form.
**[16:29] Utsuro**
What I had thought was justice was
nothing more than self-righteousness.
**[16:36] Utsuro**
I was just a puppet without a heart.
**[16:41] Utsuro**
You there, Miss Hero.
**[16:43] Utsuro**
You probably don't understand
my suffering at all, do ya?
**[16:48] Utsuro**
Yet you have the nerve to
say you're gonna save me?
**[16:52] Shy**
Saving people is what heroes exist for.
**[16:56] Utsuro**
Well, ain't that sweet?
**[16:59] Utsuro**
But if that's really what you believe,
**[17:02] Utsuro**
you're gonna see hell in the near future.
**[17:18] Shy**
Blazing Hunter's Bonfire!
**[17:26] Ai**
Hidden Sword Technique: Flower Brazier!
**[17:33] Utsuro**
If that's all you've got...
**[17:39] Utsuro**
You ain't even gonna be able to kill a bug.
**[17:41] Ai**
Teru-san!
**[17:42] Utsuro**
Don't move.
**[17:43] Utsuro**
Take even one step and I chop this arm off.
**[17:48] Utsuro**
You're both weak.
**[17:50] Utsuro**
Because your hearts are so half-assed,
**[17:53] Utsuro**
hesitations arise, and you can't
go so far as killin' anyone.
**[17:58] Utsuro**
You'll always have these naïve thoughts
of never gettin' your own hands dirty.
**[18:04] Ai**
Shut up!
**[18:05] Ai**
We were taught how to handle our hearts
**[18:09] Ai**
so that we never mistook
how to use our strength!
**[18:12] Ai**
But now look at you! Now you're...
**[18:15] Ai**
Just how many people are you tryin' to hurt?
**[18:19] Ai**
Take back your heart, Mai!
**[18:21] Ai**
The kind heart you once had!
**[18:24] Utsuro**
Ai-nee.
**[18:26] Utsuro**
I abandoned my heart a long time ago.
**[18:30] Ai**
Mai...
**[18:31] Shy**
No.
**[18:34] Shy**
That's a lie.
**[18:37] Shy**
If you had abandoned your heart
because you were in so much pain,
**[18:41] Shy**
then why are you crying right now?
**[18:55] (Flashback) Master**
Ai.
**[18:56] (Flashback) Master**
You need to forget about Mai.
**[18:59] (Flashback) Ai**
What? B-But, Master, Mai is...
**[19:03] (Flashback) Master**
Following our code,
I have sent men after her.
**[19:06] (Flashback) Master**
You should understand, as well...
**[19:09] (Flashback) Master**
the fate that awaits a shinobi
who has lost their way.
**[19:13] Shy**
Ai-san!
**[19:16] Utsuro**
You sure seem relaxed when
we're in the middle of a fight!
**[19:21] Ai**
T-Teru-san!
**[19:23] Utsuro**
Oh, dear. She just decided
to go down on her own.
**[19:27] Ai**
Mai, stop this!
**[19:29] Ai**
We... We were basically family
with all the other shinobi!
**[19:33] Utsuro**
Family?
**[19:35] Ai**
Please, Mai. Let's go back
to our village together.
**[19:39] Ai**
I'm sure everyone will forgive you...
**[19:45] Utsuro**
How foolish.
**[19:47] Utsuro**
These are all the katanas of
the ones who came after me.
**[19:50] Utsuro**
I no longer have
**[19:52] Utsuro**
a family.
**[19:56] Ai**
Oh...
**[19:58] Ai**
Mai is now...
**[20:06] Ai**
If you're gonna continue
resenting the world,
**[20:10] Ai**
then as a shinobi...
**[20:11] Ai**
I'll end you myself!
**[20:14] Utsuro**
I've been waiting to hear
those words for so long,
**[20:19] Utsuro**
Ai-nee.
**[20:32] Ai**
* Shinobi wield a blade*
* for the sake of justice.*
**[20:37] Ai**
* Putting their hearts into their blades and*
* cuttin' down evil is the destiny of a shinobi.*
**[20:44] Ai**
*That gentle smile will never return.*
**[20:49] Ai**
*I can't hesitate!*
**[21:00] Shy**
Ai-san, no!
**[21:02] Ai**
Hidden Sword Technique: Tower of White Jade!
**[21:14] Ai**
This is...
**[21:16] Ai**
goodbye, Mai!
**[21:20] Utsuro**
Ai-nee...
**[21:24] Utsuro**
Thank you.
**[21:25] Utsuro**
You've finally been sullied.
**[21:30] Utsuro**
Your emotions in this sword
are flowing into me.
**[21:37] Utsuro**
We now share the same appearance...
**[21:40] Utsuro**
We share the same world and memories...
**[21:47] Utsuro**
The vague boundary that was
between us is now gone,
**[21:54] Utsuro**
and we've become one.
**[21:59] Utsuro**
Our dream from back then
has finally come true,
**[22:06] Utsuro**
Ai-nee.

**[00:01] (Flashback) Ai**
Look, Mai! It's a half-moon!
**[00:03] (Flashback) Mai**
You're right. It's split right in half.
**[00:07] (Flashback) Ai**
The half-moon's basically like us.
**[00:10] (Flashback) Mai**
Why's that?
**[00:12] (Flashback) Ai**
Both sides are the same moon,
but one side shines and the other's dark.
**[00:19] (Flashback) Ai**
Aw, I wish I was as shiny as you, Mai.
**[00:23] (Flashback) Mai**
I figured it was the other way around.
**[00:27] (Flashback) Mai**
But if we're both a half-moon,
**[00:31] (Flashback) Mai**
we'd be perfectly round like
the full moon if we became one.
**[00:39] Utsuro**
Thank you.
**[00:41] Utsuro**
You've finally been sullied.
**[00:44] Utsuro**
We now share the same appearance...
**[00:46] Utsuro**
We share the same world and memories...
**[00:50] Utsuro**
The vague boundary that was
between us is now gone,
**[00:56] Utsuro**
and we've become one.
**[01:04] Shy**
Wh-What did you do to Ai-san?
**[01:08] Fox Utsuro**
I guess I haven't properly
introduced myself yet.
**[01:12] Fox Utsuro**
My name's Utsuro. It's a pleasure.
**[01:15] Fox Utsuro**
Ai-nee's become one with me.
**[01:19] Fox Utsuro**
Ai-nee's filled my empty heart,
and I've finally become a perfect circle.
**[01:26] Fox Utsuro**
Hooray!
**[01:28] Shy**
Huh?
**[01:29] Fox Utsuro**
Aw, Ai-nee's sparkly heart just feels so comfy!
**[01:34] Fox Utsuro**
Now that we've finally become one,
**[01:36] Fox Utsuro**
it feels like the halves of our hearts
have come perfectly together.
**[01:40] Shy**
Ai-san's your older sister, isn't she?!
**[01:42] Shy**
You don't feel anything by doing this?!
**[01:44] Fox Utsuro**
Kon, kon. Oh, goodness.
**[01:48] Fox Utsuro**
I absolutely hated and loved Ai-nee.
**[01:53] Fox Utsuro**
The two of us are one.
**[01:55] Fox Utsuro**
We are one and perfectly round.
**[01:57] Fox Utsuro**
I'm overflowing with power.
**[02:01] Fox Utsuro**
Twin Ninja Art: Twin Sal Trees.
**[02:12] Spirit**
That's...
**[02:15] Kufufu**
I have to go now.
**[02:17] Spirit**
Wai—
**[02:21] Kufufu**
Hopefully we won't see each other again.
**[02:24] Kufufu**
The next time we meet,
**[02:27] Kufufu**
it'll probably be...
**[02:29] Kufufu**
in a tragedy.

Vague
**[04:06] Fox Utsuro**
Ooh, I did it! That definitely left a mark.
**[04:12] Fox Utsuro**
Sorry to take you down, as well.
**[04:17] Shy**
A-Ai-san had been searching
this whole time...
**[04:21] Shy**
for a way to save you, Mai-san.
**[04:23] Fox Utsuro**
My name's Utsuro.
**[04:25] Fox Utsuro**
I abandoned my heart, my family, my name...
**[04:29] Fox Utsuro**
everything... and became hollow.
**[04:33] Shy**
That's a lie. People's
hearts don't become empty.
**[04:38] Shy**
Even now, aren't you hiding your
guilt somewhere within your heart?
**[04:50] Fox Utsuro**
If only you could save
this world by just talkin'...
**[04:54] Fox Utsuro**
No one would ever have to die.
**[05:02] Shrimpy**
Teru...
**[05:09] Fox Utsuro**
If I can get outside, I'll use this power
**[05:12] Fox Utsuro**
to make every last shinobi and
hero completely disappear.
**[05:20] Lady**
*Shy!*
**[05:22] Lady**
*What the heck happened?*
**[05:23] Lady**
*Those guys ran off somewhere!*
**[05:23] Shy**
*I can... barely breathe...*
**[05:28] Lady**
*Hey! Come in already!*
**[05:28] Shy**
*My body's not listening to me...*
**[05:32] Lady**
*Hello? Shy? You can hear me, can't you?!*
**[05:32] Shy**
*But I have to... stop... her...*
**[05:35] Lady**
*Come in! Hello?!*
**[05:41] Shy**
*I'm sorry... everyone...*
**[05:52] Purity**
Shy.
**[05:58] Shy**
Huh? Where am I?
**[06:02] Purity**
Take that blade, Shy.
**[06:07] Shy**
Who are you?
**[06:09] Purity**
If you give up right now, Ai,
the people of this city,
**[06:15] Purity**
and Mai will be lost to the darkness forever.
**[06:22] Purity**
Mai was too kind to live as a shinobi,
but too talented to live in peace.
**[06:30] Purity**
She had no choice but to kill her own heart.
**[06:34] Purity**
That poor child.
**[06:36] Purity**
Since you understand people's hearts... No.
**[06:41] Purity**
*Only* you can save her and the world.
**[06:47] Shy**
But I... I can't reach her...
**[06:51] Shy**
by myself.
**[06:53] Purity**
But you are not alone.
**[06:56] Purity**
We are with you.
**[07:00] Purity**
*My name is Purity.*
**[07:02] Purity**
*The answer will fill your heart.*
**[07:06] Purity**
*Now, take me in your hand...*
**[07:11] Purity**
*Hero.*
**[07:18] Fox Utsuro**
What?
**[07:20] Purity**
*The way to fight...*
**[07:23] Purity and Shy**
...is within our hearts!
**[07:26] Spirit**
That's...
**[07:28] Spirit**
Teru-chan's flames.
**[07:33] Fox Utsuro**
How bizarre.
**[07:35] Fox Utsuro**
Is this Purity's power?
**[07:37] Purity**
* Feel the heart of the blade*
* and connect it with your own.*
**[07:43] Purity**
*Then give your body to the blade.*
**[07:46] Shy**
I can feel its heart.
**[08:02] Shy**
M-My body's moving on its own!
**[08:04] Purity**
*Right now, your body and this blade are one.*
**[08:07] Purity**
*Your bracelet is tying us together.*
**[08:11] Shy**
My Heart-shift bracelet?
**[08:13] Purity**
* The more your heart moves your*
* body and the blade together,*
**[08:17] Purity**
*the stronger our bond will become.*
**[08:21] Shy**
Move together...
**[08:31] Shy**
From my heart to my body...
**[08:33] Shy**
and then my body to the blade...
**[08:36] Fox Utsuro**
Secret Twin Blade: Misty Blade Dance!
**[08:39] Shy**
*From the blade to my heart...*
**[08:41] Shy**
*Make my heart... spin!*
**[08:48] Fox Utsuro**
Did ya disappear without a trace?
**[08:53] Fox Utsuro**
The wind...
**[08:56] Shy**
Your suffering and conflicts are
coming through to me on this wind.
**[09:02] Shy**
That's exactly why I have to...
**[09:06] Shy**
defeat you!
**[09:09] Fox Utsuro**
Nihil... are you trembling
with excitement, too?
**[09:14] Fox Utsuro**
All right, Little Miss Hero.
**[09:16] Fox Utsuro**
We're done playin' games now.
**[09:23] Shy**
Is this... a river?
**[09:27] Fox Utsuro**
This is the vague boundary
between life and death.
**[09:32] Fox Utsuro**
The perfect place to have
a battle of life and death.
**[09:36] Fox Utsuro**
There's nowhere to run.
**[09:39] Fox Utsuro**
This is a battle for our lives!
**[09:56] Shy**
*My flames!*
**[10:03] Fox Utsuro**
Must be hard to play
with your usual fireworks.
**[10:06] Fox Utsuro**
Kon, kon.
**[10:09] Purity**
*Shy. Look at the river.*
**[10:13] Purity**
*Rivers waver just like hearts do.*
**[10:17] Purity**
* Nature will bare its fangs at*
* those it recognizes as its enemy,*
**[10:21] Purity**
* and will become the ultimate ally*
* to those it recognizes as its friend.*
**[10:25] Purity**
*Become the friend of the universe.*
**[10:28] Shy**
The friend of the universe?
**[10:31] (Flashback) Ai**
...and then want to help it on its way.
**[10:34] (Flashback) Ai**
Thank it, believe in it, and let it guide you.
**[10:38] Shy**
That's right. That's what Ai-san said.
**[10:43] Shy**
Thanks.
**[10:44] Shy**
I'll try to believe in it.
**[10:46] Fox Utsuro**
What? You're just chargin'
at me without thinkin'?

Hidden Sword Technique: Flower Brazier!
**[11:03] Fox Utsuro**
*That's Ai-nee's technique.*
**[11:07] Fox Utsuro**
*She disappeared.*
**[11:11] Fox Utsuro**
There you are.
**[11:13] Fox Utsuro**
*Just her blade?*
**[11:22] Shy**
I got a hit in!
**[11:24] Purity**
*Well done.*
**[11:27] Fox Utsuro**
When a blade and a heart become one to this
extent, they're able to change this much?
**[11:34] Fox Utsuro**
In that case, I...
**[11:44] Fox Utsuro**
just need to dance with Nihil, as well.
**[12:01] Shy**
It's so powerful.
**[12:03] Fox**
That wasn't a technique or anything.
**[12:07] Fox**
That was just a swing.
**[12:12] Shy**
You're incredibly strong, yes.
**[12:14] Shy**
But you won't be able to hit me like that!
**[12:18] Fox Utsuro**
Then how about this?
**[12:25] Fox Utsuro**
Yamata no Orochi!
**[12:36] Shy**
The city!
**[12:37] Fox Utsuro**
My goodness, you're an awful person.
**[12:40] Fox Utsuro**
That's what happens when you dodge my attack.
**[12:50] Shy**
Hidden Sword Technique:
Cherry Blossom Blitz!
**[12:55] Fox Utsuro**
Looks like you're gettin' weaker.
**[13:02] Shy**
*I... I still can't win!*
**[13:05] Purity**
* Shy, you have more than*
* enough power within you.*
**[13:09] Purity**
* But you haven't realized the power of the*
* thing that connects you to the blade...*
**[13:13] Purity**
*Your bracelet.*
**[13:16] Purity**
*Remember, Shy.*
**[13:18] Purity**
*Your wish is not just to win.*
**[13:22] Shy**
*My wish?*
**[13:25] Shy**
*I want to save everyone.*
**[13:27] Shy**
*And that includes Utsuro...*
**[13:29] Shy**
*No, that includes Mai-san!*
**[13:32] Shy**
*The power of the Heart-shift bracelet...*
**[13:34] Shy**
* A power I don't know...*
* that I haven't realized...*
**[13:40] Shy**
* I thought the Heart-shift bracelet was something*
* that gave a physical form to your heart...*
**[13:46] Shy**
* But if that's true, then why do*
* I understand foreign languages?*
**[13:51] Shy**
* The Heart-shift bracelet is a tool*
* to connect me with the world.*
**[13:55] Shy**
* If that's the case, there might be a way*
* to connect my heart with the world!*
**[14:02] Purity**
*That's right, Shy.*
**[14:05] Purity**
*And eventually, that becomes...*
**[14:07] Purity**
*the state of complete selflessness.*
**[14:27] Shy**
Where am I?
**[14:32] Purity**
*Shy.*

Nope! Not gonna wait!
**[14:50] Shy**
Ai-san? But... small?
**[14:53] Shy**
What's going on?
**[14:55] Purity**
*This is inside Utsuro's... rather, Mai's memory.*
**[14:56] Mai**
Wait, wait!
**[15:01] Purity**
*Which means that these two cannot see you.*
**[15:06] Shy**
I sort of feel like a ghost.
**[15:11] Ai**
You think this bird's gonna be okay?
**[15:14] Ai**
It seems pretty weak...
**[15:17] Mai**
I'm gonna save it, no matter what.
**[15:24] Purity**
*Mai truly loved life.*
**[15:33] Purity**
* No matter how small, she loved*

**[15:40] Mai**
Uh-huh. So is your mom doin' better now?
**[15:45] Mai**
I see. That's great.
**[15:48] Ai**
Come on, now! Pick up the pace!
**[15:51] Tokimaru**
Yes, miss!
**[15:52] Mai**
A-Ai-nee, what in the world are ya doin'?
**[15:55] Ai**
This is Tokimaru! He's my student
who came from the next village over.
**[16:00] Ai**
Only I can use him!
**[16:01] Tokimaru**
Oh, no. If you ever need anything,
Mai-sama, please tell me.
**[16:05] Ai**
Hey! Don't go betrayin' me!
**[16:08] Mai**
Then why don't we have some tea together?
**[16:11] Tokimaru**
As you wish.
**[16:12] Ai**
Wha—
**[16:13] Ai**
What the heck?!
**[16:16] Mai**
I see. So yer name's Tokimaru-san.
**[16:20] Mai**
That's a lovely name.
**[16:26] Purity**
*Ever since Tokimaru arrived,*
**[16:28] Purity**
* Mai's days seemed to be filled*
* with calm and happiness.*
**[16:35] Purity**
*But...*
**[16:42] Purity**
*Mai's skills as a shinobi were recognized,*
**[16:45] Purity**
*and she was undertaking secret missions.*
**[16:50] Purity**
*Shy. You're a hero,*
**[16:53] Purity**
* but would you consider it a sin to kill one*
* villain in order to save a hundred lives?*
**[17:00] Purity**
*Most people probably would not.*
**[17:05] Purity**
*But Mai was different.*
**[17:08] Purity**
* For the sake of justice,*
* she killed her true kindness.*
**[17:13] Purity**
* And in exchange, she put on a cruel mask*
* and created a heart that felt nothing.*
**[17:20] Purity**
*That is the current Mai.*
**[17:23] Purity**
*She became the persona known as Utsuro.*
**[17:26] Purity**
* Mai's heart couldn't handle*
* her missions anymore,*
**[17:30] Purity**
*so she hid her guilt behind her mask...*
**[17:34] Purity**
* not knowing that this would*
* slowly eat away at her heart.*
**[17:41] Purity**
*And then...*
**[17:47] Purity**
*That bear was Mai's friend.*
**[17:51] Purity**
* They were able to share a very*
* short but peaceful time together.*
**[17:56] Purity**
* The mother bear and cub were hungry and*
* wandered down to where the humans were...*
**[18:02] Purity**
*and apparently attacked a home.*
**[18:06] Purity**
*Mai went to protect the people of the village.*
**[18:09] Purity**
* Without realizing it,*
* she put on the mask of Utsuro*
**[18:12] Purity**
*and ended up slaying the bear family.*
**[18:15] Purity**
*Mai's heart was already on the edge...*
**[18:18] Purity**
* but after that, she couldn't tell*
* what was right or wrong anymore.*
***SIGN*** Shinobi
**[18:36] Tokimaru**
Mai-sama!
**[18:45] Purity**
*And so...*
**[18:48] Purity**
*Mai became Utsuro.*
**[19:00] Mai**
N-No... I can't stay here...
**[19:04] Mai**
I need to go... where there's no one else...
**[19:09] Mai**
Into the darkness... where I'll feel nothing...
**[19:13] Mai**
Somewhere no one... can find me...
**[19:16] Mai**
Not even myself...
**[19:19] Shy**
Mai-san... was battling with this all alone?
**[19:28] Shy**
Where am I?
**[19:30] Mai**
This is deep within my—
within Mai Tennoji's heart.
**[19:39] Shy**
Mai-san... and... Ai-san!
**[19:43] Mai**
Ai-nee is currently asleep.
**[19:46] Mai**
But if she continues to sleep here,
**[19:50] Mai**
Ai-nee's sense of self
will dissolve within me...
**[19:53] Mai**
and disappear.
**[19:56] Shy**
No!
**[19:57] Mai**
So, Miss Hero...
**[20:00] Mai**
Please take Ai-nee outta this place.
**[20:03] Shy**
Huh?
**[20:05] Mai**
In truth, I never wanted
anything like this to happen.
**[20:10] Mai**
I just...
**[20:11] Mai**
wanted to stay a pure child
and live my life laughin'.
**[20:16] Mai**
I've wanted someone to kill me
since I'd been sullied with blood.
**[20:23] Shy**
Those chains...
**[20:26] Mai**
This is my punishment,
because I was so foolish.
**[20:31] Mai**
My punishment is to sit here
and suffer for eternity
**[20:34] Mai**
in this darkness where no one else will come.
**[20:38] Mai**
But even so...
**[20:41] Mai**
I guess my sin just won't disappear.
**[20:45] Mai**
I'm the one who brought her here...
**[20:48] Mai**
And yet I can't help but feel happy
that I get to see Ai-nee again.
**[20:55] Mai**
And that's exactly why...
Please, help Ai-nee...
**[21:01] Shy**
Very well. But what about you?
**[21:07] Shy**
What's that?
**[21:09] Purity**
*We're out of time.*
**[21:11] Purity**
* The connection between your*
* hearts will soon be broken.*
**[21:14] Shy**
But what about Mai-san?
**[21:16] Purity**
*She is the master of this heart.*
**[21:19] Purity**
*She cannot leave it.*
**[21:21] Mai**
I know it's a selfish wish.
**[21:24] Mai**
But please...
**[21:27] Mai**
Before I destroy them all...
**[21:29] Mai**
Please save Ai-nee, the world's
heart... and the future.
**[21:39] Shy**
I will.
**[21:57] Utsuro**
Impossible...
**[22:00] Shy**
I'll save them... no matter what!

Hand Reached Out
**[01:34] Utsuro**
Impossible...
**[01:40] Purity**
*Utsuro's transformation has been undone.*
**[01:42] Purity**
*It's proof that she's weakened.*
**[01:47] Utsuro**
I can still fight.
**[01:50] Utsuro**
I'll defeat you, and then...
**[01:53] Utsuro**
get my revenge on every
shinobi in this world.
**[01:56] Utsuro**
So that someone like me never exists again!
**[02:01] Shy**
Utsuro-san.
**[02:02] Shy**
When I encountered your heart earlier,
**[02:05] Shy**
I met Mai-san inside it.
**[02:10] Shy**
What you experienced, what you
wished for, why you despaired..
**[02:16] Shy**
Why you came into this world as Utsuro-san...
**[02:18] Shy**
Mai-san told me everything.
**[02:22] Utsuro**
Quit spoutin' nonsense.
**[02:24] Utsuro**
Come at me!
**[02:30] Utsuro**
Wh-What do you think you're doin'?
**[02:33] Shy**
I will not fight you.
**[02:35] Shy**
I just want to talk to you.
**[02:38] Utsuro**
Don't give me that!
**[02:39] Utsuro**
I ain't got a single thing to
talk about with a hero like you!
**[02:44] Shy**
Actually, you do.
**[02:47] Shy**
Because, Utsuro-san...
**[02:50] Shy**
You're about as shy as I am,
and much more lonely.
**[02:59] Utsuro**
Lonely? Me?
**[03:02] Utsuro**
I abandoned my family and my village!
**[03:04] Utsuro**
That's because I wanted to!
**[03:07] Utsuro**
I'm going to live and die alone!
**[03:10] Utsuro**
I could never feel lonely!
**[03:14] Shy**
Then... Then why were you...
**[03:17] Shy**
smiling so happily back then?
**[03:20] Shy**
Back when you abandoned everything
and left your village...
**[03:23] Shy**
Why were you crying?
**[03:25] Utsuro**
Shut up! You don't know a damn thing!
**[03:29] Shy**
It's because...
**[03:30] Shy**
You're actually shy but can't
even talk to the people you like!
**[03:35] Shy**
You're the same kind of dummy that I am!
**[03:39] Utsuro**
What the hell would you know?!
**[03:48] Shy**
I absolutely know how a shy girl feels.
**[03:52] Utsuro**
Like someone as blessed as you could ever
know what it feels like to be a sinner!
**[03:58] Shy**
What is a sinner, then?
**[04:01] Shy**
Are you never allowed to be happy again
just because you made one mistake?
**[04:07] Shy**
No!
**[04:10] Shy**
If you've made a mistake,
you just need to make it right!
**[04:13] Shy**
If you can't do it alone,
do it with someone else!
**[04:19] Shy**
And you had someone by your side
who would carry the burden with you!
**[04:24] Utsuro**
I don't...
**[04:26] Utsuro**
need that.
**[04:29] Shy**
Ai-san said the same thing as you.
**[04:33] Shy**
All alone in a dark room,
**[04:36] Shy**
she called herself a sinner and
tied herself down with chains.
**[04:39] Shy**
You're way too awkward.
**[04:42] Shy**
You're trying to bear your own sin,
and it's made you desperate.
**[04:46] Shy**
But if your desire has hurt the world,
**[04:51] Shy**
hurt the ones you love,
**[04:54] Shy**
and is going to hurt you, as well...
**[04:58] Shy**
I'll stop you as many times as it takes.
**[05:00] Shy**
Even if I have to risk my life!
**[05:09] Utsuro**
You keep actin' like you know everything...
**[05:12] Utsuro**
In the end, that's just it. No one...
**[05:16] Utsuro**
understands me at all...
**[05:20] Utsuro**
Not you, not Ai-nee...
**[05:23] Utsuro**
Not even me!
**[05:29] Utsuro**
If everything is going to reject me,
**[05:32] Utsuro**
I'll shatter this shell...
**[05:34] Utsuro**
and end it all!
**[05:39] Utsuro**
Shatter, shell of this world!
**[05:48] Spirit**
A gentle breeze that
embraces a cloud of love!
**[05:51] Spirit**
The drunken breath that floats in!
**[05:54] Mianlong**
Now that we're here...
**[05:57] Lady**
We're not gonna let you have your way!
**[06:01] Shy**
Pepesha-san! Piltz-san! Mianlong-san!
**[06:04] Mianlong**
Sorry we're late!
**[06:07] Lady**
I thought you were done for.
**[06:09] Spirit**
Okay, you bad little girl...
**[06:11] Spirit**
Do you still intend to fight?
**[06:16] Utsuro**
Don't underestimate me.
I can take on all of you.
**[06:20] Utsuro**
*Why...*
**[06:22] Lady**
Leave her to me.
**[06:24] Utsuro**
*Why are there so many people around Ai-nee?*
**[06:31] Utsuro**
*I'm...*
**[06:36] Utsuro**
*I'm always alone, no matter how far I go.*
**[06:44] Tokimaru**
Mai-sama.
**[06:46] Tokimaru**
Please, stop this.
**[06:49] Tokimaru**
There's no reason for you to hurt any more.
**[06:53] Utsuro**
Tokimaru?
**[06:56] Utsuro**
What are you doin' here?
**[06:59] Utsuro**
Are you gonna get in my way, too?
**[07:02] Shy**
T-Tokimaru-san!
**[07:03] Shy**
You're bleeding!
**[07:07] Utsuro**
It's because you got in my way!
**[07:09] Utsuro**
Because you got close to me!
**[07:12] Tokimaru**
I'm wearing a gauntlet. This is nothing.
**[07:17] Tokimaru**
But every time you swing that sword,
**[07:20] Tokimaru**
your actual heart is going to hurt even more.
**[07:24] Tokimaru**
This wound can't even compare.
**[07:28] Tokimaru**
You are not a person who can stay
unaffected by hurting others.
**[07:33] Tokimaru**
No matter how empty that mask you wear is,
**[07:36] Tokimaru**
your heart will not disappear.
**[07:39] Tokimaru**
That's what being human means.
**[07:41] Tokimaru**
Your heart is kind, delicate, and honest.
**[07:46] Utsuro**
No! I threw that heart away
**[07:49] Utsuro**
the first time I killed someone!
**[07:52] Utsuro**
In the end, you're just another
one of them, Tokimaru.
**[07:56] Utsuro**
There's no way you'd understand how I feel.
**[08:01] Tokimaru**
It's true. I do not know everything
about your heart, Mai-sama.
**[08:07] Tokimaru**
But I could say the same for you, as well.
**[08:12] Utsuro**
What's that piece of paper supposed to be?
**[08:15] Tokimaru**
It's a written plea.
**[08:17] Tokimaru**
Ai-sama wrote this to our master
so you could return to the village.
**[08:22] Tokimaru**
It's a written plea to pardon you, Mai-sama.
**[08:29] Tokimaru**
Regardless of what punishment awaits,
**[08:31] Tokimaru**
she said she would take your place.
**[08:34] Tokimaru**
She repeated her plea over and over again.
**[08:38] Tokimaru**
Even if she had to be punished,
Ai-sama never gave up.
**[08:44] Tokimaru**
She wanted you to be forgiven.
**[08:47] Utsuro**
Impossible... Why?
**[08:49] Utsuro**
Because of me, Ai-nee...
**[08:52] Tokimaru**
Even if her plea wasn't accepted...
**[08:59] (Flashback) Ai**
Please, gods...
**[09:02] (Flashback) Ai**
Please forgive Mai for what she's done.
**[09:05] (Flashback) Ai**
Please ensure that she's not sufferin'.
**[09:09] (Flashback) Ai**
Please make sure she's happy.
**[09:12] (Flashback) Ai**
All right! Just 73 more times!
**[09:15] (Flashback) Ai**
Come on, Tokimaru! You do it, too!
**[09:17] (Flashback) Ai**
A hundred prayers!
**[09:20] (Flashback) Tokimaru**
Do you really believe that
this has meaning, Ai-sama?
**[09:24] (Flashback) Ai**
I honestly don't care if it has meaning or not.
**[09:28] (Flashback) Ai**
I just want Mai to know that I'm always
thinkin' about her, even now.
**[09:33] (Flashback) Ai**
That there's someone wishin'
for her happiness right here.
**[09:37] (Flashback) Ai**
I don't care if it's through gods
or Buddha or birds or bugs...
**[09:43] (Flashback) Ai**
I want someone to tell her that.
**[09:47] (Flashback) Ai**
I'm pretty sure she feels mighty
alone in this world right now.
**[09:54] Tokimaru**
Ever since then, not a single day
went by that Ai-sama didn't pray.
**[10:03] Tokimaru**
Do you understand, Mai-sama?
**[10:06] Tokimaru**
Even if you cut through me,
reject me, hate, or despise me...
**[10:12] Tokimaru**
Even if this whole world
turned against you,
**[10:15] Tokimaru**
our feelings for you wouldn't
change in the slightest.
**[10:20] Utsuro**
You're just lyin'!
**[10:23] Utsuro**
You and Ai-nee and everyone
else is on *that* side!
**[10:27] Utsuro**
You're different from me!
**[10:29] Tokimaru**
If you so desired, I would
fight everyone here.
**[10:36] Tokimaru**
I'm more than ready to die alongside you.
**[10:39] Tokimaru**
But only...
**[10:40] Tokimaru**
if that's what you truly desire, Mai-sama.
**[10:46] Ai**
You say some crazy things, Tokimaru.
**[10:49] Ai**
Even the protagonist of some
romance wouldn't say all that.
**[10:55] Shy**
Ai-san!
**[10:57] Utsuro**
Ai-nee...
**[10:58] Utsuro**
I'm sure you really hate me, too.
**[11:02] Utsuro**
Because I stabbed you!
**[11:06] Ai**
Just a moment ago...
**[11:09] Ai**
When I was inside your heart...
**[11:12] Ai**
They were mere moments,
**[11:14] Ai**
but your memories came flowin' into me.
**[11:19] Ai**
There were so many things I didn't know.
**[11:24] Ai**
That's awful... We were always together.
**[11:27] Ai**
I'm supposed to be your older sister.
**[11:30] Ai**
But I didn't know a thing about you...
**[11:35] Ai**
I'm so sorry, Mai.
**[11:37] Utsuro**
Wh-What are you...
**[11:41] Ai**
I couldn't be there for you when
you were sufferin' so much.
**[11:46] Ai**
I had no idea just how troubled you were...
**[11:51] Ai**
I'm sorry I acted like I knew.
**[11:54] Utsuro**
There ain't no point in you
apologizin' to me now!
**[12:01] Ai**
The way you try to distance yourself
so that no one else gets hurt...
**[12:07] Ai**
You haven't changed one bit, Mai.
**[12:09] Utsuro**
Stay back!
**[12:11] Utsuro**
I'm someone who wouldn't feel a
damn thing even if I cut you down!
**[12:15] Utsuro**
I-If you come any closer, I—
**[12:23] Ai**
See? You're still a kind girl.
**[12:28] Ai**
Come on, Mai. If you can't
rely on anyone else,
**[12:31] Ai**
at least rely on your sister.
**[12:34] Ai**
The two of us have always been one.
**[12:39] Ai**
Let's go home together.
**[12:42] Utsuro**
Ai-nee...
**[12:45] Utsuro**
I-I...
**[12:58] Ai**
Mai, I...
**[13:03] Shy**
An explosion?!
**[13:05] Doki**
The hell are you wasting time for, Utsuro?!
**[13:10] Doki**
Your dream ain't over yet, is it?!
**[13:15] Lady**
Those little...
**[13:20] Utsuro**
That's right.
**[13:23] Utsuro**
I don't have the right to take her hand...
**[13:28] Doki**
I'm gonna burst open the walls
of your heart, or whatever!
**[13:35] Utsuro**
But... even so...
**[13:42] Utsuro**
Just one more time...
**[13:47] Utsuro**
Together, could we...
**[13:53] Utsuro**
Shy.

This isn't good! At this rate...
**[14:07] Lady**
Wh-What's going to happen?
**[14:24] Century**
What the...
***SIGN*** Asakusa, Tokyo

The black orb just...
**[14:29] Citizen A**
What's that black stuff?
**[14:36] Citizen C**
What the hell?!
**[14:38] Citizen D**
M-My body...
**[14:41] Squad member**
Th-There's an emergency!
**[14:42] Stardust**
What's going on?
**[14:44] Squad member**
There are reports that a
fog has started leaking
**[14:46] Squad member**
from the black orb, and it's
turning citizens into monsters.
**[14:50] Shrimpy**
So this is what Stigma was talking about.
**[14:53] Shrimpy**
It happened earlier than we anticipated.
**[14:57] Doki**
Flow out! Scatter!
**[14:59] Doki**
The outer world's gonna be
overwhelmed by the humans' fear!
**[15:06] Lady**
What is that?
**[15:08] Century**
*This is Century.*
**[15:09] Century**
*Leader Shy, can you hear me?*
**[15:11] Shy**
Y-Yes! I can hear you.
**[15:14] Century**
Good, we can communicate now
that the black orb's been broken.
**[15:16] Shrimpy**
Shy, I'm going to fill you
in on the situation out here.
**[15:19] Shy**
*Shrimpy-san!*
**[15:20] Shrimpy**
Due to something leaking from the black orb,
**[15:22] Shrimpy**
citizens are turning into monsters.
**[15:24] Shrimpy**
If the black orb breaks any more,
there will be casualties on a grand scale.
**[15:28] Century**
Listen to me. You must stop the black
orb from being destroyed at any cost.
**[15:31] Shy**
Citizens are turning into monsters?
**[15:33] Lady**
So they're going berserk
even without the ring?
**[15:36] Doki**
They don't need rings or
the Heart-shift bracelets!
**[15:39] Doki**
Anyone can join Amarariruku
by using fear as the key!
**[15:43] Doki**
All humans can live as their hearts desire!
**[15:47] Doki**
Doesn't that world sound like a dream?!
**[15:51] Shy**
How dare you call that a dream?!
**[15:55] Doki**
Whoa! Like your dumb, slow
fireball would actually hit us!
**[16:02] Lady**
That stupid lizard!
**[16:06] Doki**
Well? Sucks that you can't do anything, huh?
**[16:09] Doki**
You dumbasses!
**[16:14] Doki**
Wh-Wha?!
**[16:21] Doki**
Utsuro, you ass! What's the big idea?!
**[16:24] Utsuro**
This is my heart.
**[16:27] Utsuro**
I can do as I please here.
**[16:30] Tokimaru**
Mai-sama...
**[16:31] Doki**
Hey, you sure about this?!
**[16:33] Doki**
I was gonna help you
**[16:34] Doki**
make your dream of destroying
this world come true!
**[16:38] Utsuro**
My hatred for this world remains unchanged.
**[16:44] Utsuro**
But I realized something.
**[16:47] Utsuro**
My dream wasn't destroyin' the world.
**[16:51] Utsuro**
It's just a puny little dream that's within me.
**[17:00] Doki**
Is that so?
**[17:02] Doki**
And here I thought...
**[17:04] Doki**
you were the only one like me.
**[17:10] Doki**
I guess...
**[17:12] Doki**
I had the wrong idea.
**[17:15] Doki**
If you're gonna do what you want,
**[17:18] Doki**
we're just gonna destroy
this thing like we planned!

A selfish child at heart
that looks like a demon...

Naughty little boys that
bully my little sister...

...have become full!
**[17:47] Shy**
Ai-san! Mai-san!
**[17:50] Doki**
Damn it! Who do you think you are?!
**[17:53] Doki**
Hey, Kufufu! We're gonna do that one thing!
**[17:56] Doki**
Bring that thing out!
***SIGN*** Silence...
**[18:01] Doki**
Hey, what're you doing, Kufufu?!
**[18:03] Doki**
I said bring that thing out!
**[18:05] Doki**
Are you listening, Kufufu?!
**[18:07] Doki**
Hey, damn it, Kufufu!
**[18:11] Doki**
Kufufu-san!
**[18:13] Kufufu**
What?
**[18:14] Doki**
Hurry up and bring the thing out!
**[18:17] Kufufu**
Really? Isn't this enough?
**[18:19] Kufufu**
I'm super tired, so I just
wanna hurry back and sleep.
**[18:23] Doki**
You dumbass! Like we can turn back now!
**[18:26] Kufufu**
My name's not "dumbass." It's Kufufu-san.
**[18:29] Doki**
Just shut up and bring it out!
Come on Kufufu...san!
**[18:34] Kufufu**
Jeez... I don't feel up to it, but fine.

This is the last time.

Wha...
**[19:18] Shy**
What the heck is that?!
**[19:21] Inori**
I awakened it to the heart of love.
**[19:25] Doki**
I gave it some fighting weapons!
**[19:28] Kufufu**
And I made it bigger.

We have to stop it, no matter what.
**[19:43] Doki**
If you think you can stop it, go ahead and try!
**[19:52] Doki**
Did you see that power?
**[19:53] Doki**
Okay, little bear!
**[19:55] Doki**
Just break right through!
**[19:58] Lady**
No! If the already-cracked black orb
gets hit with something that powerful,
**[20:02] Lady**
it'll instantly...
**[20:07] Ai**
What a rowdy little one.

They ain't gonna crack that easily!

Actually...

Two blades are cutting the

And they're improvising this.

They're always breaking your stuff, Doki.

Wow!

With the Moon......
**[02:02] Doki**
Remember what you said?
**[02:04] Doki**
You said connections were just sad!
**[02:06] Utsuro**
Doki... You...
**[02:09] Doki**
I don't have family or anyone on my side!
**[02:13] Doki**
The world has hated me from
the moment I was born!
**[02:16] Doki**
I lived this long without believing
in a single connection!
**[02:21] Doki**
That's why I thought you truly understood me.
**[02:25] Doki**
Because you cursed your birth and this world!
**[02:29] Doki**
Let go of that hand!
**[02:32] Doki**
Strangers disappear in no time, anyway!
**[02:34] Doki**
Unlike that stupid connection, our goal
will last forever into the future!
**[02:42] Utsuro**
Doki... I understand your
hate so much that it hurts.
**[02:47] Utsuro**
But hatred and anger only bring
upon more hatred and anger.
**[02:54] Utsuro**
All people are connected
with someone somewhere.
**[02:58] Utsuro**
That goes for you, too!
**[03:02] Doki**
Don't give me that! "Connected," my ass!
**[03:07] Doki**
My heart was destroyed by this world.
**[03:11] Doki**
That means it's okay for me to
destroy the world in return!
**[03:16] Doki**
I'm not alone?
**[03:18] Doki**
We're all connected?
**[03:21] Doki**
Then, back then...
**[03:24] Doki**
was anyone else connected to my despair?!
**[03:29] Utsuro**
Doki... Still, you have...
**[03:37] Utsuro**
Hey, little bear! Don't attack me, too!
**[03:41] Kufufu**
Well, the little bear was angy because
you were saying something dumb.
**[03:45] Kufufu**
Tragedies are so boring.
**[03:48] Doki**
What'd you say?! Huh?! Kufufu!
**[03:52] Inori**
Now, now, Doki-san.
**[03:54] Kufufu**
I wasn't very motivated before, but
now I'm bored, so I wanna do it now.
**[04:00] Kufufu**
The end of this story.
**[04:03] Utsuro**
End?
**[04:05] Ai**
What're you plannin' to do?
**[04:07] Kufufu**
Well...
**[04:10] Sprit**
Kufufu-san, stop!
**[04:12] Sprit**
If you do any more naughty things,
I'm going to get angry!
**[04:17] Kufufu**
Oh, you dummy. You actually came here.
**[04:21] Spirit**
Even Mama... Even Tzveta
wouldn't have wanted this!
**[04:26] Kufufu**
I told you that the next time
we met, it'd be a tragedy.
**[04:32] Kufufu**
But it's too late now.
**[04:33] Kufufu**
Tick-tock, the clock is moving forward!
**[04:37] Lady**
Fire?
**[04:38] Mianlong**
What are you...
**[04:40] Doki**
Hey, Kufufu! Don't tell me you're...
**[04:45] Kufufu**
I told you. I don't like showing off tragedies.
**[04:49] Kufufu**
Next time, I was going to hope for
a comedy where we can laugh...
**[04:53] Kufufu**
and the boring tragedy was going
to end with some flashy fireworks!
**[05:04] Mianlong**
Everyone!
**[05:05] Lady**
How could she do that?
**[05:10] Shy**
P-Pepesha-san!
**[05:15] Ai**
Tokimaru! But why?!
**[05:18] Tokimaru**
A-Are either of you hurt?
**[05:21] Ai**
You moron! We're fine! But your back...
**[05:27] Doki**
Whoa! That was close!
**[05:31] Doki**
Kufufu, you jerk! What the hell's the big idea?!
**[05:34] Doki**
Little bear! Little bear!
**[05:38] Kufufu**
But lookie...
**[05:40] Kufufu**
It's open now.
**[05:45] Ai**
Tokimaru...

The sky...

This is bad...

hold it in!

Atomic Cosmo!
**[06:14] Century**
I'm not so weak that... I'd give up...
over something like this!
**[06:23] Shrimpy**
But at this rate...
**[06:27] Shrimpy**
Teru...
**[06:29] Lady**
Spirit! Shy! Are you okay?!
**[06:31] Shy**
I-I'm fine! But Pepesha-san...

Mai.
**[07:06] Ai**
You said it yourself earlier, didn't you?
**[07:09] Ai**
We're together now, no matter what happens.
**[07:11] Ai**
There ain't no reason for you to suffer alone.
**[07:15] Ai**
Even if we die here or
this world is destroyed...
**[07:19] Ai**
Even if we were reborn,
we'd be together again!
**[07:24] Ai**
So please, don't make that face.
**[07:30] Utsuro**
I see.
**[07:33] Utsuro**
Even if we die or are reborn, huh?
**[07:38] Utsuro**
Then I guess there's nothin' to be scared of.
**[07:43] Utsuro**
Thanks, Ai-nee.
**[07:48] Tokimaru**
Mai-sama?
**[07:49] Ai**
Where are you goin'?
**[07:57] Utsuro**
Someone's holdin' this all in here.
**[08:00] Utsuro**
This is our last chance.
**[08:02] Ai**
Mai! Wait!
**[08:04] Ai**
If you're gonna do somethin',
we'll help you out.
**[08:08] Utsuro**
You already gave me plenty of your hearts.
**[08:14] Ai**
You're plannin' to go alone
and leave us behind?!
**[08:18] Utsuro**
I'm not alone.
**[08:20] Utsuro**
We're together forever.
**[08:23] Utsuro**
Just hearin' you say that
gave me a plenty happy life.

*I'd been scared this whole time.*

*Yeah, I know.*
**[09:08] Utsuro**
* These chains I'd struggled to get*
* out of... This lonely life...*
**[09:15] Utsuro**
*It was actually simple.*
**[09:17] Utsuro**
*To be free of this sufferin'...*
**[09:22] Utsuro**
*All I had to do...*
**[09:25] Utsuro**
*was accept everything.*

**[13:57] Mai**
*That's the person I wanted to be...*
**[14:01] Utsuro**
Nay!
**[14:03] Utsuro**
Now I will be someone's moon!
**[14:08] Utsuro**
Retribution. I'll accept everything!
**[14:12] Utsuro**
Leave it in the end!
**[14:14] Utsuro**
Leave my light... even if
my body is ripped apart!
**[14:27] Utsuro**
*Ah... the darkness again.*
**[14:30] Utsuro**
*I'm returning to that terrifying darkness.*
**[14:34] Utsuro**
* I'm disappearing into a place*
* where there's no one else.*
**[14:40] (Flashback) Ai**
Even if we die here or
this world is destroyed...
**[14:44] (Flashback) Ai**
Even if we were reborn,
we'd be together again!
**[14:52] Utsuro**
I'll see them again.
**[14:54] Utsuro**
It's not scary.
**[14:56] Utsuro**
It's not... scary.
**[14:59] Utsuro**
Ai-nee. Tokimaru.
**[15:03] Utsuro**
I'm so sorry...
**[15:08] Tokimaru**
Mai-sama!
**[15:12] Tokimaru**
Mai-sama.
**[15:13] Tokimaru**
We're right here!
**[15:16] Utsuro**
Those wings...
**[15:19] Utsuro**
Why did you come here?!
**[15:20] Utsuro**
If you're here, your hearts
will be consumed, too!
**[15:23] Tokimaru**
I'm very aware of that!
**[15:25] Tokimaru**
You saved my life!
**[15:28] Utsuro**
Tokimaru...
**[15:30] Shy**
Mai-san! Your hand!
**[15:33] Shy**
Please grab on!
**[15:36] Shy**
Please!
**[15:41] Utsuro**
Purity...
**[15:43] Utsuro**
I... I just...
**[15:47] Utsuro**
Wha...
**[15:49] Utsuro**
What are you—
**[15:51] Shy**
Please let us connect again,
kind-hearted ninja maiden.
**[15:57] Shy**
The state of total selflessness.
**[16:04] Utsuro**
Stop! If you connect with me now, your
heart will be consumed by the darkness!
**[16:09] Shy**
Pain is something we can take on together.
**[16:12] Shy**
Even if it may be too heavy for you
alone, with the two of us...
**[16:16] Shy**
And if even that's not enough, then three...
**[16:20] Shy**
and four!
**[16:22] Shy**
When we humans connect our hearts...
**[16:26] Shy**
That truly becomes the light that
shines through the darkness.
**[16:32] Ai**
Mai!
**[16:35] Ai**
The two of us together are one!
**[16:38] Ai**
Together, we create the full moon.
**[16:41] Ai**
Reflecting the light of the sun into the
darkness that perseveres in solitude.
**[16:53] Doki**
They're so damn persistent,
wasting our time by resisting!
**[16:57] Doki**
Hey, Kufufu...san! Don't you have anything?!
**[17:01] Doki**
Anything? I used a bunch of stuff today, so—
**[17:06] Mianlong**
I should be saying *you're* persistent!
**[17:09] Mianlong**
I won't let you get in everyone's way.
**[17:11] Mianlong**
If you want someone to
play with, I'm right here.
**[17:14] Doki**
Oh, damn you all!
**[17:17] Doki**
You all piss me off!
**[17:29] Ai**
Teru-san... No, Shy!
**[17:32] Ai**
This is where you can show
us that you're a true hero.
**[17:35] Shy**
Ai-san...
**[17:37] Ai**
We're the moon.
**[17:39] Ai**
In order for the moon to shine,
it needs power from the sun.
**[17:44] Ai**
Now, we just need the finishing touches, Shy!
**[17:47] Ai**
We need the power from the sun!
**[18:00] Doki**
You need to learn to give up!
**[18:03] Mianlong**
Absolutely not!
**[18:08] Inori**
Change your ways!
**[18:10] Lady**
I won't let you guys have your way!
**[18:13] Lady**
As long as we're here!
**[18:20] Kufufu**
You mad? I did hurt you, after all.
**[18:23] Spirit**
No. It's just... really sad...
**[18:28] Spirit**
when your feelings don't get across.
**[18:33] Kufufu**
Bad, bad, you can't be sad.
**[18:35] Kufufu**
You'll be punished for that.
**[18:38] Kufufu**
My mom always sang this song.
**[18:40] Kufufu**
I have no use for children who don't smile!
**[18:44] Kufufu**
Punishment time for those who are crying!
**[18:48] Kufufu**
As long as you only have fun things in
your heart, you can even laugh in hell!
**[18:59] Kufufu**
Anything other than fun should die.
**[19:03] Kufufu**
That goes for you, too, if you get in the way.
**[19:11] Kufufu**
What's that?
**[19:13] Ai**
We need an even stronger flame!
**[19:15] Ai**
Focus everything you've got into your hands!
**[19:19] Mai**
I'll support those flames!
**[19:22] Tokimaru**
The light that will envelop fear!
**[19:24] Ai**
We'll give it our all!
**[19:27] Shy**
*It's okay... I'm not scared.*
**[19:30] Shy**
*Mai-san,*
**[19:32] Shy**
*Ai-san,*
**[19:34] Shy**
*Tokimaru-san...*
**[19:38] Shy**
*Thank you.*
**[19:41] Shy**
*Turn flames...*
**[19:44] Shy**
*into light.*
**[19:50] Shy**
*Warm like the sun,*
**[19:53] Shy**
*free like the clouds...*
**[19:59] Shy**
* Everything that's brought*
* us together so far...*
**[20:05] Shy**
*Let it become light and gather into my hands!*
**[20:07] Utsuro; Tokimaru; Ai**
Nin!
**[20:09] Shy**
Shine unto the world!
**[20:28] Doki**
Stop it!
**[20:30] Shy**
*Countless hearts are longing for the light.*
**[20:35] Shy**
*Use the last bit of your strength!*
**[20:38] Shy**
* Send it through the city—*
* through the whole world!*
**[20:43] Shy**
*A light that's not scared of anything...*
**[20:49] Purity**
*Go... Shy.*
**[20:53] Shy**
Shine!
**[21:06] Century**
That's...
**[21:08] Shrimpy**
Shy's brilliance.
**[21:26] Iko**
Thank goodness.
**[21:28] Iko**
Teru-chan... Ai-san... You must've done it.
**[21:38] Unilord**
Shy.
**[21:49] Ai**
Shy!
**[21:52] Ai**
Get a little bit of rest for now.
**[21:58] Ai**
The sun's light sure is warm.

***SIGN*** Episode 24:
Fare Thee Well
**[00:02] Reporter**
*We're at the scene.*
***SIGN*** Asakusa, Tokyo
***SIGN*** Broadcast: The Disappearance of the Heart of Tokyo Incident
***SIGN*** Situation Under Control – Moving Forward With Rescue Efforts
**[00:04] Reporter**
*As you can see,*
**[00:05] Reporter**
*there's no trace left of the black orb*
**[00:08] Reporter**
*that was covering the city.*
**[00:10] Reporter**
* The people who were inside the black*
* orb are being rescued one by one.*
**[00:15] Reporter**
*The hero, Stardust, actually saved me, too.*
**[00:20] Reporter**
*According to a crew member on the scene,*
**[00:23] Reporter**
* this situation was brought under*
* control thanks to the hero team.*
**[00:32] Stardust**
*Century, N. Vilio, can you hear me?*
**[00:36] Century**
Yes, Stardust.
**[00:38] Stardust**
When the black orb crumbled earlier,
**[00:40] Stardust**
the citizens who had gone berserk
returned to normal, as well.
**[00:43] Stardust**
Though I'm not sure if it's
due to the light we just saw.
**[00:47] Stardust**
Is she responsible for this?
**[00:49] Century**
Yes, though we don't know the details just yet.
**[00:54] Century**
But it's probably...
**[00:56] Daigo**
Wow! This is amazing!
**[00:59] Daigo**
It was Shy, right? Shy saved them all!
**[01:03] Daigo**
Huh? Sis?
**[01:07] Doki**
Damn it all! Everything's
ruined because of you jerks!
**[01:13] Doki**
This was our chance to
destroy and fix the world—
**[01:21] Doki**
The hell is this?!
**[01:23] Kufufu**
That's enough, isn't it?
**[01:24] Kufufu**
We failed this time.
**[01:27] Kufufu**
So anyway...
**[01:30] Kufufu**
Stigma's calling for us.
**[01:32] Kufufu**
Since we messed up this bad,
we might get punished.
**[01:39] Doki**
Damn it! You guys won't get away with this!
**[01:43] Mianlong**
W-Wait! We haven't settled this yet!
**[01:47] Kufufu**
Well, everyone, farewell.
**[01:50] Kufufu**
Our next performance will be...
**[01:53] Spirit**
Indefinitely postponed, Kufufu-san!
**[02:01] Kufufu**
I'm going home.
**[02:03] Kufufu**
Don't get in my way.
**[02:08] Lady**
You're not getting away!
**[02:14] Doki**
Hey, Kufufu! Hurry up!
**[02:16] Kufufu**
I don't think the three of
us are going back together.
**[02:18] Doki**
Huh?
**[02:19] Kufufu**
Tell Stigma sorry for me.
**[02:22] Kufufu**
And...
**[02:24] Kufufu**
I keep telling you it's "Kufufu-san," dummy.
**[02:37] Mianlong**
They got away.
**[02:39] Lady**
That stupid lizard.
**[02:43] Spirit**
Unilord, this is Spirit.
**[02:46] Spirit**
The mission's been completed.
**[02:49] Spirit**
Yes.
**[02:51] Spirit**
We captured a member of Amarariruku.
**[03:00] Unilord**
Peace has been protected.
**[03:02] Unilord**
I'm glad we left this to you.
**[03:05] Unilord**
Thank you, Shy.
**[03:13] Shy**
A-Ai-san... I...
**[03:16] Ai**
Oh? Looks like you're awake, Teru-san.
**[03:21] Shrimpy**
*Teru.*
**[03:22] Shrimpy**
*Reporting.*
**[03:23] Shrimpy**
* Confirming the casualties within*
* and around the black orb.*
**[03:27] Shrimpy**
No deaths. No serious injuries, either.
**[03:32] Shrimpy**
*Well done, Teru.*
**[03:35] Ai**
It's all over now.
**[03:38] Ai**
It's all because you were able
to take back the light, Teru-san.
**[03:41] Shy**
No, it's because you...
**[03:44] Shy**
and everyone else was by my side.
**[03:47] Shy**
I couldn't have done anything on my own.
**[03:55] Ai**
Mai!
**[03:58] Utsuro**
Ai-nee...
**[04:00] Utsuro**
You're holdin' me too tightly. I can't breathe.
**[04:03] Ai**
You moron! Suffer more!
**[04:06] Ai**
Suffer for my sake, too!
**[04:08] Ai**
Do you have any idea just how lonely I was?!
**[04:11] Ai**
How much it hurt to point my blade
at the person I missed most?!
**[04:15] Ai**
You just keep on sufferin', you moron!
**[04:18] Utsuro**
I'm sorry, Ai-nee.
**[04:21] Utsuro**
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
**[04:27] Ai**
But now you're here, Mai.
**[04:30] Ai**
That makes me so happy that
nothin' else matters anymore.
**[04:34] Ai**
I've been wishin' forever for the
day we can talk like this again.
**[04:40] Tokimaru**
Mai-sama.
**[04:42] Tokimaru**
That day, when you left the village...
**[04:45] Tokimaru**
I have regretted the fact that
I couldn't go after you all this time.
**[04:49] Tokimaru**
I couldn't repay you for saving my life.
**[04:53] Tokimaru**
I...
**[04:54] Ai**
Now, now. The three of us
are back together again.
**[04:59] Ai**
Who cares about the past?
We've got our future.
**[05:03] Ai**
Let's eat lots once we get back to the village.
**[05:06] Ai**
Then we can play in the river
and take a bath together.
**[05:10] Utsuro**
I'm sorry, you two.
**[05:14] Ai**
Huh?
**[05:16] Utsuro**
I can't go back home with y'all after all.
**[05:21] Ai**
Wh-Why would you say somethin' like that?
**[05:24] Ai**
Are you worried about
everyone in the village?
**[05:26] Ai**
In that case, we'll—
**[05:35] Ai**
Mai?!
**[05:36] Ai**
Y-Your hand... Why?
**[05:38] Ai**
But everything's over now...
**[05:42] Utsuro**
The black orb that covered
this area was my heart.
**[05:48] Utsuro**
If the walls of your heart are
shattered against your will,
**[05:52] Utsuro**
your vessel will be lost, too.
**[05:57] Utsuro**
That was my fate from the start...
**[06:01] Utsuro**
ever since I joined Amarariruku.
**[06:04] Ai**
No... But we're finally back together!
**[06:08] Utsuro**
It's all right, Ai-nee.
**[06:11] Utsuro**
The fact that I strayed from
the path hasn't changed.
**[06:14] Utsuro**
Bein' able to see you two again is
way more than I could've asked for.
**[06:18] Utsuro**
It'd be selfish of me to ask for any more.
**[06:21] Shy**
And you knew that, Mai-san?
**[06:25] Utsuro**
Even after I'm gone,
this world will continue on forever.
**[06:30] Utsuro**
That's why, before my body disappears...
**[06:34] Utsuro**
Shy, there's something I want to tell you.
**[06:39] Shy**
Huh?
**[06:41] Utsuro**
In the past, shinobi were necessary in
this world to maintain its balance.
**[06:46] Utsuro**
But no one wants the blade of
a shinobi in this world anymore.
**[06:51] Utsuro**
What should be handed down is their heart.
**[06:54] Shy**
A shinobi's heart?
**[06:57] Utsuro**
A heart that's necessary
in a world without conflict.
**[07:05] Utsuro**
As a shinobi,
**[07:07] Utsuro**
I've seen countless examples
of the darkness in this world.
**[07:13] Utsuro**
It's filled with greed, and everyone is
consumed by pleasure and depravity.
**[07:20] Utsuro**
It was overflowing with violence that
can harm oneself as well as others.
**[07:29] Utsuro**
That eventually entered my heart,
**[07:34] Utsuro**
and I was also taken into the darkness.
**[07:38] Utsuro**
The evil that could make your hair stand
on end wasn't on some distant star.
**[07:43] Utsuro**
It is always seeded in everyone's hearts.
**[07:46] Utsuro**
But it should be the same thing for
hearts that are pure and clear.
**[07:52] Utsuro**
So...
**[07:55] Utsuro**
I want to leave you with my heart and my wish.
**[08:00] Ai**
Mai! What are you—
**[08:03] Utsuro**
The ring of evil hearts that Stigma unleashed
**[08:06] Utsuro**
goes from one's finger to their heart,
**[08:09] Utsuro**
and it spreads from there,
movin' toward their life force.
**[08:19] Utsuro**
At the same time, their feelings
become materialized,
**[08:23] Utsuro**
creating another heart.
**[08:28] Utsuro**
Please, take this.
**[08:31] Utsuro**
It's filled with the power of my heart.
**[08:35] Shy**
The power of your heart?
**[08:38] Shy**
Yes...
**[08:39] Utsuro**
The storm technique I used that fells trees,
**[08:43] Utsuro**
slices through skin, and scatters petals...
**[08:48] Utsuro**
and the free wind technique
that brings clouds,
**[08:51] Utsuro**
races across the earth, nurtures great flames,
**[08:56] Utsuro**
and will never be tied down by anyone.
**[09:02] Utsuro**
The light of hope that'll let everyone
battle the darkness within their hearts...
**[09:10] Utsuro**
I want you to use my power so
you can show everyone that light.
**[09:17] Ai**
Mai...
**[09:21] Shy**
Um...
**[09:23] Shy**
Why me?
**[09:25] Mai**
Before I...
**[09:27] Ai**
Mai!
**[09:27] Shy**
Mai-san!
**[09:32] Mai**
Before I joined Amarariruku...
**[09:36] Mai**
Just once, I got to meet the
previous hero of Japan...
**[09:40] Mai**
The Person of Light.
**[09:43] Shy**
Huh?
**[09:57] Shy**
The Person of Light?
**[10:00] Mai**
On the day there was a huge fire
in Soga's neighboring village,
**[10:05] Mai**
I just happened to be nearby.
**[10:09] Mai**
All I could do was stand there and watch.
**[10:14] Mai**
That day, I truly felt just how
powerless one small human could be.
**[10:20] Mai**
The one who appeared then was...
**[10:24] Mai**
the Person of Light.
**[10:28] Shy**
Shine.
**[10:30] Mai**
After a while, the fire was put out,
and only minimal casualties occurred.
**[10:35] Mai**
That was the day I learned about heroes.
**[10:41] Mai**
That's when I realized that
**[10:43] Mai**
the world doesn't desire the
shinobi who bury the darkness,
**[10:48] Mai**
but people like her who bring them light.
**[10:54] Mai**
Shy...
**[10:56] Mai**
As the one who's carrying out her will,
**[11:00] Mai**
I'm sure you'll face hardships,
pain, and despair countless times.
**[11:06] Mai**
But please don't forget...
**[11:12] Mai**
No matter how dirty a pond
may be, the lotus flower still
**[11:16] Mai**
plants its roots and grows straight up.
**[11:21] Mai**
And then it blooms the purest,
most beautiful flower on the earth.
**[11:27] Mai**
Please don't lose to the darkness.
Make a flower like the sun bloom.
**[11:34] Mai**
I'm sure you can do it.
**[11:37] Shy**
Okay.
**[11:40] Mai**
I guess in the end...
**[11:42] Mai**
I never got to see my own flower bloom.
**[11:48] Tokimaru**
Mai-sama!
**[11:54] Shy**
These birds...
**[11:58] Tokimaru**
You always had a beautiful flower blooming.
**[12:06] Tokimaru**
A flower of calm among us.
**[12:10] Mai**
Tokimaru...
**[12:11] Shy**
Huh?!
**[12:12] Ai**
Tokimaru... So you really were...
**[12:16] Ai**
the bird from that day.
**[12:20] Tokimaru**
Mai-sama, they are all...
**[12:23] Mai**
You don't need to tell me.
**[12:25] Mai**
How could I ever forget?
**[12:27] Mai**
They're my family from the village,
the ones who were always by my side.
**[12:31] Tokimaru**
On that day, you two saved my life,
**[12:35] Tokimaru**
and my heart knew peace for the first time.
**[12:38] Tokimaru**
Even after you despaired in this world,
**[12:41] Tokimaru**
fought against killing,
and refused to live anymore,
**[12:46] Tokimaru**
they were watching over you this whole time.
**[12:49] Tokimaru**
They wanted to tell you
that you weren't alone.
**[12:52] Mai**
I see...
**[12:54] Mai**
I can't believe I didn't notice...
**[12:56] Mai**
I'm such an idiot.
**[12:59] Mai**
I guess it wasn't just the
moon watchin' over me.
**[13:09] Mai**
Looks like it's time.
**[13:12] Ai**
No! Mai!
**[13:13] Ai**
You can't just leave me behind like this!
**[13:17] Mai**
Ai-nee, you said so yourself...
**[13:20] Mai**
No matter where we are, our hearts are one.
**[13:24] Mai**
Even if we're reborn.
**[13:27] Mai**
Tokimaru, I'm countin' on you.
**[13:30] Tokimaru**
Yes.
**[13:30] Mai**
Despite how she looks,
Ai-nee gets pretty lonely.
**[13:34] Mai**
So please, love her and protect her for me.
**[13:41] Tokimaru**
As you wish.
**[13:46] Mai**
My life was as short-lived as sea-foam...
**[13:52] Mai**
but I was truly more
blessed than anyone else.
**[13:58] Mai**
To think that so many lives are
watching over my final moments...
**[14:05] Mai**
Nihil. Thank you, too.
**[14:09] Mai**
Now, Tokimaru... Please send my soul off...
**[14:15] Mai**
to the place all lives return to.
**[14:25] Mai**
To my home, where the moon watches over us.
**[14:32] Ai**
Mai...
**[14:44] Someone**
This way, please!
**[14:46] Reporter A**
Stardust!
**[14:48] Reporter A**
Could you please explain this incident?
**[14:51] Reporter B**
What happened to Spirit?
**[14:53] Stardust**
Spirit is currently away
taking care of something.
**[14:56] Stardust**
There's no need to worry.
**[14:58] Reporter C**
What in the world was that black orb?
**[15:01] Stardust**
We're still not entirely sure ourselves...
**[15:04] Stardust**
But Amarariruku are evildoers
who take advantage of our hearts,
**[15:09] Stardust**
and they have tremendous power.
**[15:12] Century**
Until now, the heroes from each country
were able to deal with them,
**[15:16] Century**
but this was on another level.
**[15:19] Century**
They swallowed up a whole town and
greatly affected the areas around it.
**[15:24] Century**
This means that they are
also growing more powerful.
**[15:28] Reporter E**
But this time, you were able to resolve
the incident without any casualties.
**[15:32] Reporter E**
We believe this is due to the
two of you, Century and Stardust.
**[15:38] Century**
No.
**[15:39] Century**
Without Shy here, this mission
wouldn't have been successful.
**[15:44] Shy**
Huh?
**[15:45] Reporter A**
Huh?! Shy?!
**[15:46] Reporter B**
The Japanese hero?!
**[15:47] Reporter C**
The one nobody notices?
**[15:49] Reporter A**
What's the meaning of this?
**[15:49] Shy**
Uh, wha?! Um...
**[15:52] Shy**
Um... Well... I-I, um...
**[15:55] Shy**
*Everyone's watching me!*
**[15:57] Shy**
*I need to say something!*
**[15:59] Shy**
B-Best... er, I mean...
**[16:02] Shy**
*I need to say something...*
**[16:04] Shy**
Um...
**[16:07] Lady**
Shy was appointed the leader of this mission.
**[16:11] Lady**
I believe that she produced the best results
**[16:14] Lady**
in this situation where we had
no idea what would happen.
**[16:17] Mialong**
Shy-san was a trustworthy leader
who knew how to act on her feet!
**[16:24] Shrimpy**
Yes. Shy has fought Amarariruku many
times now and has won each time.
**[16:30] Shrimpy**
Without any of you noticing.
**[16:32] Shy**
Shrimpy-san...
**[16:34] Stardust**
We decided that she was the most suited to
be the leader this time, and we were right.
**[16:41] Century**
This is something all the heroes who
participated in this mission agree on.
**[16:46] Lady**
Above all, other than her having
what it takes to be a leader...
**[16:50] Lady**
No hero can beat her in her strong
desire to protect this country!
**[16:57] Asuka**
U-Um, excuse me!
**[17:00] Asuka**
I'd like to get a comment from Shy-san.
**[17:03] Lady**
Go on!
**[17:04] Shy**
R-Right!
**[17:05] Asuka**
Oh, excuse me...
**[17:11] Asuka**
I'm with Akita Press.
**[17:12] Asuka**
I'm sure there are a lot of anxious
people in Japan right now,
**[17:16] Asuka**
so I was wondering if you could say
a few words to put them at ease.
**[17:21] Shy**
Asuka-san...
**[17:24] Shy**
Th-This incident...
**[17:27] Shy**
I know it was unprecedented, a-and you
all must have been terribly scared.

**[17:50] Shy**
Huh?
**[17:52] Shy**
U-Um, s-so all of you can... s-sleep
soundly and work hard tomorrow as usual!
**[18:00] Shy**
Or something...
**[18:03] Asuka**
Thank you very much!
**[18:05] Asuka**
I'm rooting for you, Shy-san!
**[18:16] Teru**
U-Um, Piltz-san!
**[18:19] Teru**
Th-Thank you very much for earlier.
**[18:22] Teru**
I just have such a hard time
speaking in front of people...
**[18:26] Teru**
so you really helped me—
**[18:27] Piltz**
You dummy!
**[18:28] Piltz**
You're just gonna make everyone
nervous acting like that!
**[18:31] Piltz**
I said this before,
**[18:33] Piltz**
but heroes are able to make people
feel calm just by being there!
**[18:38] Piltz**
Honestly... I see some things
never change with you.
**[18:42] Teru**
I'm sorry.
**[18:44] Piltz**
Well, whatever.
**[18:46] Piltz**
You need to get some rest today, too.
**[18:48] Piltz**
I'm going to be staying here for the night.
**[18:50] Teru**
Oh, okay.
**[18:52] Teru**
Great work.
**[18:54] Piltz**
If anything happens,
I'll head out immediately.
**[18:58] Piltz**
I'll be counting on you then.
**[19:00] Piltz**
Also...
**[19:02] Piltz**
I said this earlier, but you did well.
**[19:06] Piltz**
You should be proud of yourself, Leader.
**[19:15] Teru**
*Calm, huh? She yelled at me again...*
**[19:20] Iko**
Teru-chan!
**[19:21] Teru**
Iko-san! Ai-san!
**[19:24] Teru**
What are you doing here?
**[19:26] Iko**
I just couldn't sit at home anymore!
**[19:28] Iko**
I talked to Unilord-san,
and she said you were here.
**[19:31] Teru**
Huh?
***SIGN*** Warm
***SIGN*** Warm
**[19:34] Unilord**
Cheap phones are so convenient.
**[19:37] Iko**
You're amazing, Teru-chan!
**[19:39] Iko**
You saved the city of Tokyo!
**[19:41] Iko**
It's like you're a hero!
**[19:42] Iko**
I mean, you are, but...
**[19:44] Ai**
It's not just the city.
**[19:47] Ai**
Teru-san saved my heart, as well as Mai's.
**[19:53] Teru**
Huh?!
**[19:54] Ai**
Truly, thank you so much.
**[19:56] Ai**
I will never forget this debt.
**[19:58] Teru**
I-It's nothing!
**[20:00] Teru**
Besides, we only got through
this because of you, Ai-san...
**[20:04] Ai**
No. If it wasn't for you,
**[20:07] Ai**
I wouldn't have been able
to talk to Mai honestly.
**[20:11] Ai**
Whew! I feel a huge weight
lifted from my shoulders!
**[20:16] Teru**
Ai-san...
**[20:18] Teru**
Are you heading back to your village?
**[20:21] Ai**
You worried about me?
**[20:23] Ai**
Well, even I didn't know about the
dark aspects of being a shinobi.
**[20:28] Teru**
Er, well, no. Not exactly...
**[20:31] Ai**
Considering everything that happened,
I have to go tell them about Mai,
**[20:35] Ai**
so I'm plannin' to head
back to the village soon.
**[20:38] Ai**
I partially came here to say goodbye.
**[20:42] Ai**
It was only a short time, but I had fun.
**[20:45] Teru**
Ai-san...
**[20:46] Iko**
I see.
**[20:48] Iko**
We'll miss you.
**[20:52] Ai**
I guess we really are sisters.
**[20:55] Ai**
After meetin' you and the
other heroes, I thought...
**[21:00] Ai**
If I want to make a world without conflict,
we shinobi can't stay the same.
**[21:10] Ai**
And that's why...
**[21:11] Ai**
I'm gonna make that change!
**[21:14] Ai**
I'm gonna make sure the new
generation of shinobi can shine
**[21:18] Ai**
upon the world just as much as heroes!
**[21:20] Ai**
So long as we desire the same thing,
we'll definitely meet again.
**[21:26] Ai**
When that time comes,
**[21:28] Ai**
I hope you'll hang out with me again!
**[21:30] Iko**
Yeah!
**[21:31] Teru**
We'd love to!
**[21:33] Ai**
Well, then, you two...
**[21:36] Ai**
Fare thee well!
**[21:51] Iko**
And she's gone.
**[21:53] Iko**
We should probably head home, too.
**[21:56] Teru**
Yeah.
**[22:01] Teru**
*Around the middle of the 21st century,*
**[22:04] Teru**
* war had disappeared from the*
* small circle floating in the darkness.*
**[22:10] Teru**
* People with superhuman strength*
* suddenly appeared all around the world,*
**[22:14] Teru**
*wished for peace, and worked really hard!*
**[22:18] Teru**
* People just referred to them*
* in the good, old-fashioned way...*
**[22:24] Teru**
*"Heroes."*
**[22:27] Teru**
* But the world still had*
* yet to see true peace.*
**[22:32] Teru**
* Amarariruku appeared, and they*
* threatened everyone's peace of mind.*
**[22:38] Teru**
*But I know...*
**[22:42] Teru**
*that we heroes and Amarariruku are the same.*
**[22:46] Teru**
* We are both small, weak creatures who*
* worry and suffer just like everyone else.*
**[22:51] Stigma**
You're just shining upon people's
hearts without permission.
**[22:54] Stigma**
You're in the way...
**[22:57] Stigma**
Shy.
**[22:59] Shy**
* Will I be able to reach their hearts*
* one day, even though I'm so shy?*
**[23:06] Shy**
*Just like her...*
**[23:09] Shy**
*With her brilliant, warm light.*
**[23:13] Iko**
Oh, yeah.
**[23:15] Iko**
Thanks, Shy, for protecting our world.
**[23:23] Teru**
Well, I'm a hero, after all.
**[23:36] Shy**
Shy.
