[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...

[02:53] Piltz
    Yes. I arrived at the disaster area yesterday.
[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,
[03:16] Piltz
    so we'll have to work together.
[03:18] Piltz
    Could you try to get some funding
    for supplies from your country?

    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?

    Hm? You're not all that different...

    Hmm... Me?

    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.

    A hero to someone...

[19:00] Asuka
    You're not really that heroic, are you?

    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
