[00:14] Mikado
Is this what you were looking for?
SIGN Eccentric's Corridor
SIGN Ishihara Touma
[00:17] middle-aged customer
Yes, this is it!
[00:19] middle-aged customer
Thank you!
[00:20] Mikado
You're welcome.
[00:25] Mikado
There are some things my eyes
see with strange clarity.
[00:30] Mikado
Unfortunately, this isn't my
destined soulmate or anything.
[00:34] Mikado
I think it's more likely...
[00:36] Mikado
that she's deceased.
[00:40] Hiyakawa
My destiny... is you.
[00:45] Hiyakawa
You removed your glasses?
[00:47] Hiyakawa
Even though your eyesight is bad?
[00:54] Mikado
I-I'm very sorry.
[00:57] Hiyakawa
Triangle-kun?
[01:00] Mikado
It's read "Mikado."
[01:01] Hiyakawa
Mikado-kun, to think I'd run into you...
a person like you, by pure chance.
[01:07] Hiyakawa
Our meeting must have been destiny!
[01:10] Mikado
Huh?
[01:11] Hiyakawa
Your ability. After all, you see so clearly.
[01:18] Hiyakawa
I'm sorry to do this so suddenly.
[01:28] Mikado
What... was that?
[01:31] Mikado
Somehow, it felt... incredibly... good...
[01:38] Hiyakawa
Amazing. Destiny is real.
[01:44] shop manager
Wow... So ghosts really do exist.
[01:48] shop manager
But Master Hiyakawa,
how does an exorcism work?
[01:53] Hiyakawa
Master? Please, there's
no need to call me that.
[01:55] Hiyakawa
In my case, I suppose you could say I have
the ability to grab and clobber them.
[02:01] Mikado
Clobber?
[02:02] shop manager
Mikado-kun, you're awake?
[02:05] shop manager
Well, you know how there have been
rumors that our shop is haunted?
[02:09] shop manager
It was getting kind of dire, you know?
[02:11] shop manager
So, well...
[02:12] shop manager
Oh, did you want to sit up and talk?
[02:15] Mikado
No, this is the first time I've ever fainted,
[02:18] Mikado
so I really can't sit up right now.
[02:20] Hiyakawa
It felt so good that you fainted?
[02:24] Hiyakawa
That was me directly touching
something akin to your soul.
[02:29] Hiyakawa
I used it as a booster
and clobbered the thing.
[02:31] Hiyakawa
It feels good when two souls touch.
[02:34] Hiyakawa
And if you can believe it, when I touched
yours, I found we're highly compatible!
[02:40] Hiyakawa
It's desti—
[02:40] Mikado
You're a fraud, right?
[02:45] Hiyakawa
Do you deny everything you've seen up to now?
[02:49] shop manager
Mikado-kun, you can sense ghosts?
[02:51] shop manager
Why didn't you tell me?
[02:54] Mikado
Well, all I can really do is see them...
[02:57] Mikado
Uh, I mean, I plan to get a brain scan one day—
[03:00] Hiyakawa
Mikado-kun.
[03:02] Hiyakawa
This is destiny.
[03:06] Hiyakawa
So, Manager...
[03:08] shop manager
Yes?
SIGN Don't Cry, Girl
Yamashita Tomoko
[03:10] Hiyakawa
Please give me Mikado-kun!
SIGN Hori Books
[03:23] Hiyakawa
I want an assistant.
[03:24] Mikado
For what?
[03:25] Hiyakawa
Well, the work I was doing earlier
is exhausting to do alone.
[03:31] Hiyakawa
So to meet someone like you
with your natural talents—
[03:34] Hiyakawa
and I say this with no
exaggeration—must be destiny.
[03:37] Hiyakawa
Truly.
[03:41] Mikado
Don't touch me like that. It's weird.
[03:44] Hiyakawa
"Weird" how?
[03:45] Mikado
I can't move.
[03:47] Hiyakawa
Really? But I haven't touched your core yet.
[03:51] Mikado
My core?
[03:52] Hiyakawa
The thing that's akin to your soul.
The core of you as a person.
[03:57] Hiyakawa
Do you want me to touch it?
[03:58] Mikado
Quit messing around!
[04:00] Mikado
It's Hiyakawa-san, right?
[04:02] Hiyakawa
Yes.
[04:03] Mikado
I'm going to be honest here. I'm scared.
[04:07] Mikado
The reason I take my glasses off is to
keep my distance from those things.
[04:12] Mikado
Even when everything else looks
blurry, I see those things clearly.
[04:16] Mikado
I can tell them apart.
[04:18] Mikado
If I can tell them apart, I can run from them.
[04:21] Mikado
They scare me!
[04:23] Mikado
Let go of me.
[04:28] Hiyakawa
Mikado-kun.
[04:30] Hiyakawa
If you're with me, you won't be scared anymore.
[04:39] shop manager
So...
[04:41] shop manager
This is Yamai of Hori Books. Good morning.
SIGN Yamai-san
[04:45] shop manager
The thing is... Hiyakawa-san
asked for a bit of a favor.
[04:49] shop manager
He wants you in Ashigaya at 1:00 PM today,
[04:54] shop manager
so you don't have to come
in for your shift today.
[04:57] shop manager
Oh! You're not fired, okay?
Please don't quit!
[05:01] shop manager
Anyway, please go check your email, too!
[05:05] Mikado
What?
[05:07] caretaker
I don't like to say this out loud...
[05:10] caretaker
But a few years ago, there was a suicide here.
[05:13] caretaker
So, well, ever since then,
[05:16] caretaker; background
strange things have been happening.
[05:16] Mikado
Stuff like that causes problems
for me. Makes it hard to work.
[05:18] caretaker; background
But leaving it vacant is
problematic for us, so...
[05:20] Hiyakawa
This here is what is known
as a stigmatized property.
[05:23] Mikado
That's got nothing to do with me.
[05:26] Hiyakawa
And yet you're here.
[05:29] caretaker
Please take your shoes off.
[05:32] caretaker
You really think there's a curse or
the wrath of an angry spirit here?
[05:37] Hiyakawa
Oh, no, it's nothing like that.
[05:40] Hiyakawa
Just someone who couldn't enter
the reclamation-rebirth cycle,
[05:43] Hiyakawa
so there's a sort of energy in the
air that isn't where it should be.
[05:46] caretaker
I see...
[05:49] Mikado
There's something here.
[05:50] Hiyakawa
Yes, there is.
[05:52] Hiyakawa
When you touch me,
I really can see very clearly.
[05:55] caretaker
Well, I'll leave the rest to you.
[05:58] Mikado
Wha... Wai—
[05:59] Hiyakawa
Mikado-kun, keep your hand
there for a bit, all right?
[06:03] Mikado
N-No... I just... can't.
[06:09] Hiyakawa
Your eyes are incredible.
[06:12] Mikado
No! I told you, I'm scared!
[06:14] Mikado
Hey! Stop! Pull out! I said get out of me!
[06:17] Hiyakawa
It's all right. I'll go slowly.
[06:20] Hiyakawa
It should feel good.
[06:22] Hiyakawa
It feels really good for me.
[06:25] Mikado
I-It's weird that I'm not getting hard...
[06:27] Hiyakawa
That's because it isn't
your body that feels good.
[06:30] Hiyakawa
Oh, you really are...incredible.
[06:35] Mikado
H-Hang on...
[06:36] Mikado
That thing's moving, isn't it?
[06:38] Hiyakawa
Yes, because I called it over here just now.
[06:41] Mikado
Why would you do that?
[06:44] Hiyakawa
If it isn't within arm's length,
I can't clobber it, can I?
[06:47] Hiyakawa
Would you rather we go to it?
[06:49] Mikado
No, no, no, no! I hate this!
Why is this happening?
[06:53] Hiyakawa
You're awfully lively, aren't you?
[06:54] Mikado
That's because I'm scared as hell!
[06:57] Hiyakawa
Focus a little more on your senses.
[06:59] Hiyakawa
I'm going to touch it now.
[07:01] Mikado
What?
[07:02] Hiyakawa
Your core.
[07:07] Mikado
If you're scared, please close your eyes.
[07:11] Mikado
N-Not looking at the things
I can see... is scarier.
[07:16] Hiyakawa
You are amazing.
[07:37] Mikado
Did you clobber it?
[07:39] Hiyakawa
I clobbered it.
[07:41] Hiyakawa
Take a look. It's all clean now.
[07:44] Mikado
Sh-Should exorcisms be this erotic?
[07:49] Mikado
Th-That felt really... good.
[07:52] Hiyakawa
Oh, did you know?
[07:53] Hiyakawa
When paranormal stuff happens, they say
it's good to think of erotic things.
[07:57] Hiyakawa
Because when spirits are faced with
the life force of humans, they run away!
[08:01] Hiyakawa
Ever since I read the
folklore on the internet,
[08:04] Hiyakawa
I no longer struggle to
justify the things I feel.
[08:08] Mikado
What's the pay?
[08:10] Hiyakawa
Your cut is 118,000 yen
times four divided by three.
[08:14] Hiyakawa
You only need to come in three times a week.
[08:18] Mikado
All right.
SIGN Property Appraisals ・ Special Cleaning Services
[08:23] Mikado
Property appraisals and
special cleaning services?
[08:26] Hiyakawa
It's not wrong.
[08:29] Mikado
It doesn't mention ghosts.
[08:30] Hiyakawa
Who would even believe me if I put
something like that on my sign?
[08:35] Hiyakawa
Would you make some tea, please?
[08:39] Mikado
Uh, right away...
[08:44] Hiyakawa
I'm going to do it now.
[08:47] Hiyakawa
Come here!
[09:02] Hiyakawa
It felt good that time, too, didn't it?
[09:06] Mikado
It scares me how all my
pent-up lust just vanished.
[09:09] Mikado
Also, sexual abstinence aside,
[09:12] Mikado
why do I have to stay away from meat
and alcohol before an exorcism?
[09:16] Hiyakawa
Because you'll be less tired afterward.
[09:19] Hiyakawa
I read that on the internet, though.
[09:21] Mikado
Seriously?
[09:22] Hiyakawa
Seriously.
[09:25] Hiyakawa
That's why I treat you to steak
like this after we finish.
[09:29] Hiyakawa
Meat is especially tasty
after physical exertion.
[09:32] Hiyakawa
Isn't it?
[09:38] Hiyakawa
Well? Do you think you'll be
able to get over the fear?
[09:41] Mikado
I don't know. I think living humans
might be way more terrifying.
[09:46] Hiyakawa
That's a standard sort of answer.
[09:49] Mikado
I mean, even in that situation,
she tried to haggle over the fee.
[09:55] (Flashback) female customer
U-Um...
[09:57] (Flashback) female customer
You finished everything
in five minutes, right?
[10:00] (Flashback) female customer
Would you consider reducing your fee?
[10:03] (Flashback) Mikado
Huh?
[10:04] (Flashback) Hiyakawa
We will not.
[10:08] (Flashback) Hiyakawa
We absolutely will not.
[10:14] Mikado
Excuse me! Can we get more water, please?
[10:20] Hiyakawa
Incredible! Is that a superpower?
[10:24] Mikado
What are you talking about? It's just
reading the situation, that's all.
[10:29] Hiyakawa
Reading the situation?
[10:30] Mikado
There are times when you
just have to, you know?
[10:34] Mikado
Like when you're the only
one who saw something.
[10:37] Hiyakawa
Oh, is that right? I see.
[10:41] Mikado
Hiyakawa-san, your Japanese
is a little strange.
[10:44] Mikado
Did you grow up elsewhere?
[10:46] Hiyakawa
Oh, that's because I was never
a chatty sort of person.
[10:59] Hanzawa
The ears, upper right arm, and torso
of the first victim, Miyaka Sayaka.
[11:04] Hanzawa
The head, right forearm, lower right leg,
and lower left leg of the second, Okada Aya.
[11:10] Hanzawa
The right thigh, left thigh, hands,
and feet of the third, Kawamura Eiko.
[11:18] Hiyakawa
This is that dismemberment case where
the murderer killed himself, right?
[11:22] Hiyakawa
It was about a year ago, wasn't it?
[11:24] Hanzawa
That's right.
[11:25] Hanzawa
Even after a year, we can't find the parts.
[11:28] Hanzawa
Put together, they're enough
to make a whole corpse.
[11:31] Hanzawa
I want you to look for them.
Their ending is too sad as it stands.
SIGN Metropolitan Police Investigation Unit 1
Murder Investigation Team 9 Leader
Lieutenant
Hanzawa Hiroki
[11:41] Hanzawa
All three of them worked for the same
company, but they didn't know each other.
[11:45] Hanzawa
Do you want to know how we found the bodies?
[11:48] Hiyakawa
No, thank you.
[11:49] Hanzawa
Right, then.
[11:51] Hanzawa
The three went missing one after
another, and some time later,
[11:55] Hanzawa
parts of their dismembered
bodies were found.
[11:58] Hanzawa
I have pictures if you want to see.
[12:00] Hiyakawa
No, thank you.
[12:01] Hanzawa
Right, then.
[12:03] Hanzawa
First, we suspected a man in the company's
HR who'd interacted with all of them.
[12:08] Hanzawa
But the person we arrested was a clerk
at a nearby convenience store.
[12:12] Hanzawa
He'd done the work in his bathroom.
All the evidence fell into place.
[12:17] Hanzawa
But the thing is...
[12:18] Hanzawa
The way I saw it, the convenience store
clerk wasn't a stalker or a killer.
[12:22] Hanzawa
He was just some uninteresting punk.
[12:25] Hanzawa
The evidence was conclusive. He confessed.
[12:28] Hanzawa
He didn't know the HR guy,
and had no previous record.
[12:32] Hanzawa
There's a person's worth of parts missing,
[12:35] Hanzawa
but he didn't seem to have the
intelligence needed to hide them.
[12:37] Hanzawa
While in custody, he hung himself and died.
[12:40] Hanzawa
What's that about?
[12:41] Hanzawa
Because of that, we haven't
been able to find the remains.
[12:45] Mikado
Um, I think I might have a stomachache.
[12:48] Hanzawa
You'll do this for me, right?
[12:50] Hanzawa
I made sure you'd be able to
get into the clerk's place.
[12:55] Hanzawa
What is it? Is something up
with Tenderfoot over there?
[12:57] Hiyakawa
Yes. He has extraordinarily good eyesight.
[13:03] Hanzawa
Oh?
SIGN Peaceful Apartments
[13:06] Hiyakawa
Here it is. The bathroom.
[13:07] Hiyawaka
Mikado-kun, come over here!
[13:10] Hiyakawa
It's all right. There's no one here.
[13:12] Mikado
No, this is so notallright!
[13:15] Hiyakawa
Notall...?
[13:16] Mikado
And this isn't an exorcism!
[13:18] Hiyakawa
It's always good to have
the police owe you a favor.
[13:21] Mikado
Someone died here, right?
[13:25] Hiyakawa
People have died everywhere.
[13:34] Mikado
No one... here.
[13:37] Mikado
Yes. There's no one here.
[13:40] Hiyakawa
I said so, didn't I?
[13:42] Mikado
Hey, so how are you going
to go about this search?
[13:45] Mikado
I'm not a police dog.
[13:48] Mikado
Part of a c-corpse... I can't
just find something like that.
[13:52] Mikado
And from a year ago...
[13:54] Hiyakawa
Well, you see...
[13:56] Hiyakawa
Up to this point, I've been
unilaterally entering you
[13:59] Hiyakawa
and sort of synchronizing
myself to your senses.
[14:03] Hiyakawa
I'm going to pull you out
of your shell a little more
[14:06] Hiyakawa
and have you share in my senses this time.
[14:09] Mikado
Okay... Why do you seem excited about it?
[14:12] Hiyakawa
Because this feels incredibly
good for me, too.
[14:16] Mikado
Wha... W-Wait!
[14:18] Hiyakawa
Ready? You're ready, right?
[14:21] Hiyakawa
I'm coming in.
[14:25] Hiyakawa
It's different than usual, isn't it?
[14:27] Mikado
Wait! I'm s-scared!
[14:29] Hiyakawa
Of what?
[14:30] Mikado
O-Of you!
[14:34] Hiyakawa
Do you hear something?
[14:35] Hiyakawa
My hearing is better than yours.
[14:50] Mikado
"H—"
[14:52] Mikado; Hiyakawa
"Hiura Erika tricked me."
[14:58] Hiyakawa
This is how we'll search.
[15:00] Hiyakawa
We'll share our senses to sharpen them.
[15:03] Mikado
I-Is the biting and licking necessary?
[15:06] Hiyakawa
I was so excited, I got carried away.
[15:08] Mikado
What does that mean? That's scary.
[15:10] Hiyakawa
We'll gather information at the
other locations in this same way.
[15:14] Mikado
Huh?! We're doing this more than once?
SIGN Machiwa-shi, block 4
SIGN Hotel Seventeen
[15:27] Mikado
Somehow, lately...
[15:29] Mikado
I feel like there's less distance
between me and those things.
[15:47] Hanzawa
You sure this is the place?
[15:50] Mikado
That's what she said.
[15:52] Mikado
Um... It was probably one of the victims.
[15:55] Hanzawa
Hmph. You're a bit of a monster yourself.
[15:57] Hanzawa
There are times when monsters
are better than humans, though.
[16:11] Hiyakawa
Mikado-kun.
[16:12] Hiyakawa
It's better if we stay connected.
[16:14] Hiyakawa
You won't be scared that way.
[16:17] Mikado
Hey, about that name, Hiura Erika...
[16:20] Mikado
You're not telling Hanzawa-san about it?
[16:22] Hiyakawa
I'll tell him. But he probably
won't pay it any mind.
[16:26] Hiyakawa
This isn't my first time.
[16:28] Mikado
What do you mean?
[16:30] Hiyakawa
But first, we have our search.
[16:36] Mikado
Whoa...
[16:37] Hanzawa
It's a real dump, huh?
[16:41] Hanzawa
What's this, Tenderfoot?
Got yourself scruffed?
[16:44] Hanzawa
Did you try to run away?
[16:46] Hiyakawa
This is his work position.
[16:48] Mikado
Your Japanese is weird!
[16:50] Hanzawa
Right! How should we search?
[16:53] Hiyakawa
Mikado-kun.
[16:55] Mikado
Yeah.
[16:56] Hiyakawa
Look carefully. I'll listen.
[17:00] Hiyakawa
We'll share those two senses.
[17:02] Hiyakawa
That's right.
[17:04] Hiyawaka
There's something here.
[17:08] Mikado; Hiyakawa
The boiler room!
[17:12] Mikado
Huh? Whoa, wait! Isn't that dangerous?
[17:16] Hiyakawa
Don't worry. He's got zero spiritual sense.
[17:19] Mikado
Don't curses still get you even
with zero spiritual sense?
[17:24] Hiyakawa
That man will not believe anything
he hasn't confirmed with his own eyes.
[17:29] Hiyakawa
What you don't believe in cannot act on you.
[17:34] Hanzawa
Making me search for a whole year...
[17:56] Hiyakawa
It's all right. Breathe. Take a deep breath.
[17:59] Mikado
This is so... not all right.
[18:03] Mikado
And... what is that?
[18:06] Hiyakawa
You always see them in a more
human form, don't you?
[18:11] Mikado
Huh? Is it one of those?
[18:13] Mikado
That's... I-Is that how you see them?
[18:18] Mikado
And for a scaredy-cat like me
[18:21] Mikado
to see a corpse... a-and a thing like that...
[18:25] Mikado
and still be this calm... makes no sense.
[18:28] Hanzawa
Yes. Yes. Right, thanks.
[18:32] Hanzawa
I'll take care of the two
from the cleaning company.
[18:37] Hanzawa
Yes.
[18:40] Hanzawa
You okay, Tenderfoot?
[18:42] Hiyakawa
He said that his fear
disappears when he's with me.
[18:45] Hanzawa
Hey, Tenderfoot, keep quiet and
take a deep breath through your nose.
[18:50] Hanzawa
Hiyakawa, let him go.
[18:52] Hiyakawa
If I let him go now, he'll throw up.
[18:55] Hanzawa
I'm used to seeing people vomit.
[18:57] Hiyakawa
Let go.
[19:00] Hanzawa
Breathe in... and out.
[19:03] Hanzawa
That's it. It's all right.
[19:07] Hanzawa
Hiyakawa!
[19:09] Hanzawa
Don't go in there.
[19:11] Hiyakawa
It's so well-made.
[19:13] Hiyakawa
The outrageous selection of people
[19:14] Hiyakawa
for the components makes it more effective.
[19:17] Hiyakawa
Once the instrument is complete,
[19:19] Hiyakawa
all that's needed is to say,
"You are cursed" to the target.
[19:23] Mikado
Cursed? What do you—
[19:25] Hanzawa
You mean Hiura Erika?
[19:27] Hanzawa
In the unlikely event that
something so ridiculous exists,
[19:31] Hanzawa
it's outside the police's jurisdiction.
[19:33] Hanzawa
We can't investigate a name that's
got nothing to do with the case.
[19:37] Hiyakawa
And if I don't receive a request,
it isn't my jurisdiction, either.
[19:41] Hiyakawa
The poor thing.
[19:43] Hanzawa
There's no way you think that.
[19:47] Mikado
If I can see that thing
with my eyes, it means...
[19:50] Mikado
If it isn't just that I'm crazy, then...
[19:54] Mikado
It means that there were once
