Now, enough talk.
**[00:07] fb**
It's time to cut up the cake!
**[00:10] fb**
Now, give us the kid.
**[00:13] fb**
You leave me no choice.
**[00:16] fb**
You will not have Somali—
**[00:24] fb**
Dad! Dad!
**[00:26] fb**
Dad!
**[00:28] fb**
Get up! Please!
**[00:32] fb**
Stop it! Let me go!

Bonded Father and Child
**[00:34] fb**
Shut up!
**[00:35] fb**
Dad! Dad!
**[00:40] fb**
Such a scrawny little neck.
**[00:41] fb**
Looks easy to cut through.
**[00:45] fb**
What's going on there?
**[01:06] fb**
What... What the hell is he doing?
**[01:10] fb**
Dad?
**[01:18] shi**
Mr. Golem...
**[01:27] dad**
Target coordinates acquired.
**[01:29] dad**
Internal heat and spirit
limit conversion initiated.
**[01:39] hun**
The hell is that?
**[01:43] dad**
Activate.
**[01:56] som**
Dad...
**[02:26] hunt**
M-Monster!
**[02:28] hunt**
Run!
**[02:31] som**
Dad...
**[02:34] rosa**
W-Wait for me!
**[02:48] shi**
What happened to Mr. Golem?
**[02:51] shi**
Let's go. We have to stop him!
**[02:57] hunt**
You didn't tell us this job
would be so dangerous!
**[03:01] rosa**
I didn't know golems were
so dangerous, either!
**[03:15] gol**
Target acquired.
**[03:16] gol**
Commence elimination.
**[03:29] gol**
Target acquired.
**[03:32] rosa**
Forgive me!
**[03:33] rosa**
I was wrong! I'm sorry! Please!
**[03:36] shi**
Stop it, Mr. Golem!
**[03:43] shi**
Yabashira!
**[03:48] yab**
What do you think you're doing?
**[03:50] yab**
What's happened to you?
**[03:55] yab**
You can't let her...
**[03:58] yab**
You can't let someone you
love see you like this!
**[04:05] shi**
Yabashira!
**[04:11] dad**
Eliminating target.
**[04:18] shi**
Somali!
**[04:19] yab**
No! Get away from him!
**[04:20] som**
No! I won't!
**[04:23] som**
I don't want you hurting people, Dad!
**[04:29] shi**
Somali!
**[04:31] som**
I'll be okay.
**[04:32] som**
Dad's just...
**[04:36] som**
He's just going to
**[04:38] som**
pat me on the head, like always!
**[04:57] dad**
So... ma... li.
**[05:01] som**
Dad...
**[05:17] som**
Dad...
**[05:20] som**
Dad!
**[05:21] som**
Dad!
**[05:35] dad**
Where am I?
**[05:39] dad**
Somali.
**[05:47] som**
Dad!
**[05:48] som**
Dad, Dad, Dad!
**[05:55] dad**
Somali.
**[05:58] shi**
Thank goodness! You're awake!
**[06:01] yaba**
You didn't move for ages.
We were all worried.
**[06:04] dad**
What have I... done?
**[06:07] yab**
Oh, come on.
**[06:08] yab**
Don't tell me you forgot
that big show you put on.
**[06:12] dad**
The memories remain fragmented.
**[06:16] dad**
Did I cause those injuries?
**[06:17] yab**
Well... kinda.
**[06:20] yab**
It's nothing compared to
what you suffered, though.
**[06:24] dad**
Forgive me.
**[06:26] som**
Dad... will your arm never grow back?
**[06:30] dad**
No.
**[06:31] som**
It doesn't... hurt, does it?
**[06:34] dad**
No.
**[06:36] dad**
I am sorry for frightening you, Somali.
**[06:40] som**
It's okay.
**[06:45] som**
Here.
**[06:47] dad**
Is that...
**[06:48] som**
Give me your hand.
**[07:01] som**
I'm so glad you're okay, Dad!
**[07:18] dad**
*Left arm and 23% of skin lost.*
**[07:23] dad**
*Significant loss of internal fluids.*
**[07:26] dad**
*Daily life functionality reduced to 76%.*
**[07:31] dad**
*Time remaining...*
**[07:38] dad**
*Time remaining... unknown.*
**[07:46] shi**
Somali, dear, they went over there!
**[07:48] som**
I got it!
**[07:54] yab**
You okay over there?
**[07:56] dad**
Forgive me.
**[07:57] yab**
Don't push it too hard.
**[07:59] yab**
You're still recovering.
**[08:00] yab**
Why don't you rest a while?
**[08:03] dad**
It is not an issue.
**[08:04] dad**
I am inconvenienced, but I will
adjust to this body soon.
**[08:09] som**
Dad! Yabashira!
**[08:11] som**
We caught lots of fish!
**[08:13] yab**
Hey, great work!
**[08:20] both**
Down the hatch!
**[08:28] yab**
Hey, guys, don't wolf it down like that.
**[08:30] both**
But it's so good!
**[08:33] yab**
You two...
**[08:35] dad**
Somali frequently becomes
overstimulated in the presence of food.
**[08:40] dad**
I encourage her to exercise
caution, and yet...
**[08:46] dad**
A blockage already.
**[08:51] yab**
Here, drink some water.
**[08:56] som**
Thank you so much!
**[08:57] yab**
That's what happens when you eat too fast.
**[09:00] som**
Okay! I'll be more careful!
**[09:18] dad**
Shizuno.
**[09:24] dad**
I see. You noticed?
**[09:27] shi**
Pretty much.
**[09:31] shi**
So, how's your condition for now?
**[09:39] dad**
Since the incident,
**[09:40] dad**
in addition to the damage
to my internal systems,
**[09:43] dad**
I have noticed irregularities
in my hearing and vision.
**[09:47] dad**
I feel more frequent limitations
in my movement, as well.
**[09:50] dad**
At this rate, I will eventually
cease functioning.
**[09:56] shi**
I see.
**[09:58] shi**
There must be something we can do, though.
**[10:02] shi**
I mean, you still have time, don't you?
**[10:06] dad**
It is unclear.
**[10:09] dad**
Since leaving my forest, I have struggled
in many ways against the natural order
**[10:14] dad**
for the sake of remaining with Somali.
**[10:17] dad**
However, there are things
that I cannot fight.
**[10:21] dad**
That is why I must leave Somali.
**[10:28] shi**
Mr. Golem...
**[10:30] shi**
No matter what decision you make,
**[10:33] shi**
I'll help you in any way I can.
**[10:36] shi**
I made a promise, remember?
**[10:39] shi**
But I'd like you to think it over again.
**[10:44] shi**
Is this really the best decision
for both you and Somali?
**[11:13] yab**
I can see it!
**[11:19] dad**
Somali, pull your hood down low.
**[11:34] shi**
Looks like a lively town.
**[11:42] man**
Welcome, little lady.
**[11:44] som**
Dad! There's all kinds of good stuff here!
**[11:48] dad**
It appears to be some kind of event.
**[11:51] man**
A golem? There's a rare sight.
**[11:54] man**
Travelers, are you?
**[11:55] man**
Welcome to our harvest festival!
**[11:58] yab**
Wow, is it that time already?
**[12:01] som**
Harvest festival?
**[12:03] shi**
It's a festival to thank the
ancestors for a bountiful harvest.
**[12:07] som**
Oh! So that's what a festival is!
**[12:12] som**
Everyone's got a thing!
**[12:14] shi**
Yes, those are wind-rider flowers.
**[12:17] som**
Wind-rider flowers?
**[12:19] man**
Yes, we use them to greet
the souls of our ancestors.
**[12:24] som**
Souls?
**[12:25] shi**
Yes. They're a bit like... ghosts?
**[12:28] som**
I don't like ghosts!
**[12:32] man**
Ghosts are nothing to be afraid of.
**[12:35] man**
They're the souls of our ancestors.
**[12:37] man**
Yes, they're our dear departed families.
**[12:42] man**
See?
**[12:44] man**
That's a perfect breeze.
**[12:52] man**
If you send a wind-rider
flower flying just right,
**[12:55] man**
the light will guide the
spirit of a dead mother
**[12:59] ---**
or father to return to us.
**[13:03] yab**
I think I get it.
**[13:04] som**
Did you know that, Dad?
**[13:07] gol**
An incomprehensible practice.
**[13:09] gol**
All creatures return to
the earth upon their deaths.
**[13:12] gol**
There are no ghosts, and no souls.
**[13:16] gol**
That is the natural order.
**[13:19] som**
Oh, really?
**[13:21] chi**
Grandpa!
**[13:23] man**
What is it, Chi?
**[13:25] chi**
Buy me a toy!
**[13:28] man**
Come on, hurry!
**[13:29] man**
I suppose I'd better.
It's a special day, after all.
**[13:31] man**
Can't say no to the grandson!
**[13:34] chi**
What should we get?
**[13:38] man**
Our time will come, too,
in the not-so-distant future.
**[13:43] man**
But you know, Mr. Golem...
**[13:45] man**
We all believe the same thing.
**[13:48] man**
Death is not the end.
**[13:51] man**
After death, we become souls
**[13:53] man**
that can return to our dear families again.
**[14:00] dad**
I find your wish pointless.
**[14:11] som**
Yum!
**[14:14] som**
Wow! Looks so good!
**[14:17] dad**
Shopkeep. One, please.
**[14:19] man**
Sure thing.
**[14:20] som**
How come?
**[14:21] som**
You usually say no to me
eating lots of good stuff!
**[14:24] dad**
This is a festival. A special day.
**[14:27] som**
Wow! Festivals are cool!
**[14:32] dad**
Is there anything else you desire?
**[14:35] dad**
Meat, or sugar candy?
**[14:40] dad**
What is it?
**[14:42] som**
You're overprotective, Dad.
**[14:45] dad**
Am I?
**[14:46] som**
You are!
**[14:47] yab**
Hey, got a tasty treat, huh?
**[14:51] som**
Dad bought it for me!
**[14:53] shi**
Don't eat too much sweet stuff,
**[14:57] shi**
or you'll get a cavity!
**[15:01] yab**
Hey, looks like a show.
**[15:08] som**
So cool!
**[15:14] yab**
What's wrong?
**[15:16] yab**
Upsy-daisy.
**[15:18] yab**
Here we go.
**[15:19] yab**
Can you see?
**[15:20] som**
Yeah!
**[15:21] som**
Thanks, Yabashira!
**[15:23] shi**
Yabashira! Me too, me too!
**[15:25] yab**
Oh, please! You're an adult!
**[15:28] shi**
Aw, no fair!
**[15:31] som**
Whoa, so cool!
**[15:55] som**
Isn't this fun, Da—Huh?
**[15:58] yab**
What is it?
**[16:01] som**
Dad's not there.
**[16:08] yab**
Doubt he'd get lost, as big as he is...
**[16:14] shi**
Mr. Golem...
**[16:15] shi**
Is this your decision?
**[16:18] yab**
Huh? What do you mean?
**[16:21] shi**
I don't think Mr. Golem is ever coming back.
**[16:25] yab**
Is that some kind of joke?
**[16:27] yab**
It's not funny.
**[16:29] shi**
He's been agonizing for a long time
**[16:30] shi**
over how to use the time he has left.
**[16:33] yab**
Still, he wouldn't just
leave her and run off!
**[16:36] shi**
I wanted to stop him! But...
**[16:40] yab**
Hey!
**[16:41] yab**
Dad! Dad! Dad! Dad!
**[17:12] yab**
Dad!
**[17:51] dad**
Somali.
**[17:53] som**
Dad...
**[17:56] dad**
Stop.
**[17:58] dad**
You are forbidden from coming any closer.
**[18:01] som**
Why?
**[18:03] dad**
I can no longer continue
to journey with you.
**[18:09] som**
How come?
**[18:10] som**
Is it because I ate all that candy?
**[18:13] dad**
No.
**[18:14] som**
Then is it because I play
around and don't listen?
**[18:19] dad**
No.
**[18:21] som**
Then... is it because you
don't like me anymore?
**[18:25] dad**
It is not.
**[18:26] som**
Then why?!
**[18:30] som**
Dad! No! I don't want this!
**[18:34] som**
You promised! You promised
we'd be together forever!
**[18:38] som**
Dad! Did you hear me?!
**[18:39] dad**
Somali. Release me, Somali.
**[18:41] som**
You gotta stay with me forever, Dad!
**[18:44] som**
Even when the journey's over,
even when I grow up,
**[18:49] som**
you gotta stay!
**[18:51] dad**
Somali!
**[19:04] dad**
If I lose control again,
I may place you in danger.
**[19:10] dad**
That is why it is better for
you if we part ways now.
**[19:16] som**
No! You don't get it at all!
**[19:20] som**
Because... I'll be lonely without you.
**[19:27] som**
Won't you be lonely without me?
**[19:31] dad**
Golems lack emotions.
**[19:32] som**
Do not!
**[19:33] som**
You have them!
**[19:35] som**
You get all upset when I go missing
the minute you look away.
**[19:41] som**
You get worried when
I catch a cold or get hurt.
**[19:48] som**
Sometimes you act really strict
**[19:51] som**
because you don't want me to be in danger.
**[19:55] som**
When I sleep, you stay by my side,
**[19:58] som**
because you don't want me to get lonely.
**[20:02] som**
You always hold my hand
**[20:06] som**
so that I can always be with you.
**[20:16] som**
I know... that you're actually really nice.
**[20:22] som**
Because...
**[20:24] ---**
you're my dad.
**[20:33] dad**
I, too...
**[20:35] dad**
have emotions
**[20:37] dad**
and a heart.
**[20:41] dad**
Somali.
**[20:46] som**
Dad?
**[20:51] dad**
I...
**[20:54] dad**
I...
**[21:05] dad**
I wish to remain with you, Somali.
**[21:08] dad**
As your father.
**[21:11] dad**
Even if I must struggle against
everything in this world.
**[21:20] som**
Dad...
**[21:22] dad**
That is my one and only wish,
**[21:27] dad**
Somali.
**[21:35] som**
Stay with me forever, Dad.
**[21:41] dad**
Yes.
**[21:43] dad**
Together, forever.
**[21:52] dad**
* For every additional minute,*
* every second I can.*
**[21:57] dad**
*Even if I am reduced to a soul.*
**[22:00] dad**
*For all eternity.*
