**[00:00] Mikado**
Sakaki-san! Get me there!
**[00:02] Sakaki**
I know.
**[00:04] Erika**
Once you reach Keita-kun,
**[00:06] Erika**
leave Kousuke-kun there and
bring Keita-kun here right away.
**[00:10] Erika**
We might see a reaction in the space again.
**[00:13] Sakaki**
You got it!
**[00:23] Mukae**
The barrier is about to break.
**[00:26] Mukae**
Hurry.
**[00:46] Mikado**
Hiyakawa-sa—
**[00:47] young Hiyakawa**
No.
**[00:48] young Hiyakawa**
I can't show you this!
**[00:50] young Hiyakawa**
Not you, not this...
**[00:53] young Hiyakawa**
I just know you'll turn your back on me!
**[02:55] Hanzawa**
Huh? Where did you come from?
**[02:58] Hanzawa**
Honestly, the whole lot of you are creepy.
**[03:02] Mukae**
Huh? I'm outside?
**[03:04] Sakaki**
She said it's dangerous inside, so...
**[03:10] Mukae**
Oh, wait! Someone strong!
**[03:12] Erika**
Huh? What? Me?
**[03:20] Sakaki**
What did you just do?
**[03:21] Mukae**
It's a carabiner.
**[03:23] Mukae**
So he doesn't fall. I attached it to Mikado!
**[03:26] Erika**
A carabiner? Like that hook
thing for mountain climb—
**[03:30] Hanzawa**
Whoa, there.
**[03:33] Hanzawa**
You all right?
**[03:37] Erika**
Somehow I'm suddenly super all right.
My feet are firmly on the ground.
**[03:44] Mukae**
That's awesome! Nice!
**[03:46] Hanzawa**
Huh?
**[03:48] Mukae**
A person who's like a ball of righteous
energy. That's the best piton ever!
**[03:53] Sakaki**
A piton is one of those spikes
used in climbing, right?
**[03:56] Sakaki**
You mean you connected a lifeline to
the kid so he'd be able to get back out?
**[04:00] Mukae**
That's right! Hanzawa-san,
keep hold of her, just like that.
**[04:04] Mukae**
All that's left is Mikado.
**[04:09] Mukae**
If he can grab hold of that guy...
**[04:15] Erika**
Is waiting all the rest of us can do?
**[04:18] Mukae**
Well, this is probably something
that only Mikado can do.
**[04:23] Sakaki**
You mean we don't have the strength for it?
**[04:26] Mukae**
No, the thing we're lacking isn't strength.
**[04:32] Mukae**
It's love.
**[04:34] Mukae**
The thing that always breaks the curse...
**[04:37] Mukae**
is love, right?
**[04:39] Sakaki**
Is your brain overheated or something?
**[04:41] Erika**
Well, curses are made of evil,
**[04:45] Erika**
so if love is good,
the logic sort of makes sense.
**[04:47] Sakaki**
You don't have to answer him seriously.
**[04:49] Erika**
At any rate, if Rihito-kun is
trapped inside Sensei's curse,
**[04:54] Erika**
then if we break it...
**[04:56] Mukae**
Actually, it didn't really look like that to me.
**[04:59] Sakaki; Erika**
Huh?
**[05:00] Mukae**
Hanzawa-san, there's a place
Hiyakawa has a connection to.
**[05:04] Mukae**
It's, like, all white with no windows.
Do you know where it could be?
**[05:09] Hanzawa**
What? Where did you see that?
**[05:11] Erika**
Is that where Rihito-kun was?
**[05:13] Mukae**
Yeah.
**[05:14] Erika**
I see...
**[05:16] Erika**
So Keita-kun saw Rihito-kun in
that place where he used to be.
**[05:20] Hanzawa**
Is this another spooky story?
**[05:22] Erika**
Sensei trapped Rihito-kun in there
**[05:25] Erika**
to make him into a huge power plant.
**[05:28] Erika**
And that's also why...
**[05:30] Mukae**
He had him curse himself.
**[05:33] Mukae**
He's locked inside nesting boxes
made of curses he built himself.
**[05:39] Mukae**
If he doesn't break them,
he won't be able to get out.
**[05:43] Mukae**
The only one who can save him is...
**[05:47] Mikado**
I got y—
**[05:50] Mikado**
Huh? What is this place?
**[05:53] Mikado**
It looks familiar...
**[05:59] Mikado**
From when we did that job?
**[06:01] Mikado**
Wait, why?
**[06:03] Mikado**
It wasn't a particularly memorable job...
**[06:08] Mikado**
The curse from back then is still active?
**[06:10] Miyuki's mom**
*You would abandon your mother?*
**[06:13] Miyuki's mom**
* Horrible child! I say these*
* things for your own good!*
**[06:16] Miyuki's mom**
* To think you don't even understand*
* that! You're so cold to me!*
**[06:21] Miyuki's mom**
*What made you this way?! I care about
you so much, and you don't understand?!*
**[06:24] Mikado**
Why is the curse still active?
**[06:27] Mikado**
I thought we cleaned it all up back then!
**[06:37] Mikado**
Back then, you...
**[06:40] young Hiyakawa**
This... blended in well.
**[06:43] Mikado**
Blended in?
**[06:45] young Hiyakawa**
Yeah. Because it was so similar.
**[06:47] carer**
*You are special!*
**[06:50] carer**
*You are our destiny!*
**[06:52] carer**
*It resonates with great power!*
**[06:53] young Hiyakawa**
It's similar, right?
**[06:55] Mikado**
What is this?
**[06:55] carer**
*You are our...*
**[06:57] (Flashback) Hiyakawa**
You are my destiny.
**[06:58] carer**
*...destiny.*
**[07:00] Mikado**
Shut up!
**[07:04] Mikado**
It stopped...
**[07:08] Mikado**
Hey, let's hurry up and get
out of here. This isn't—
**[07:11] young Hiyakawa**
Here?
**[07:12] young Hiyakawa**
What do you mean, "here"?
**[07:14] young Hiyakawa**
It's strange to talk about getting "out"...
**[07:17] young Hiyakawa**
because this place has always existed.
**[07:21] Mikado**
This is...
**[07:22] young Hiyakawa**
I'm pretty sure it wasn't like
this in the past, but...
**[07:27] young Hiyakawa**
I can't remember. I brought all
kind of things in here, you see.
**[07:31] Mikado**
Curses people have made... their hate...
You've been collecting them?
**[07:37] young Hiyakawa**
Even if others didn't need them
anymore, they were necessary to me.
**[07:42] young Hiyakawa**
Was that wrong?
**[07:46] (Flashback) Saori**
There are times when
hate brings people to life.
**[07:51] young Hiyakawa**
Mine was necessary.
**[07:55] young Hiyakawa**
But...
**[07:56] young Hiyakawa**
that person stole them.
**[08:00] young Hiyakawa**
That's right. I needed it.
**[08:03] young Hiyakawa**
It's so precious to me, and yet...
I'd almost forgotten about it.
**[08:07] Touko**
*Rihito.*
**[08:09] Touko**
*Rihito.*
**[08:11] Touko**
*Rihito.*
**[08:12] young Hiyakawa**
And it's something I must never, ever forget.
**[08:16] Touko**
*Rihito, you no longer have a mother.*
**[08:22] young Hiyakawa**
This hate...
**[08:25] young Hiyakawa**
The reason I almost forgot it is...
**[08:29] young Hiyakawa**
Hanzawa-san!
**[08:30] young Hiyakawa**
I think it was because of him.
**[08:33] young Hiyakawa**
He...
**[08:39] young Hiyakawa**
Why do you look sad?
**[08:41] Mikado**
You really did need it, didn't you?
**[08:46] Mikado**
You needed that hate...
**[08:49] Mikado**
Remembering that hate, or using
other people's, gave you strength.
**[08:57] Mikado**
But...
**[09:00] Mikado**
Do you still need it?
**[09:02] Mikado**
Even with me beside you, do you still...
**[09:06] young Hiyakawa**
But... I mean, you'll...
**[09:09] Mikado**
"I just know you'll turn your
back on me"? Yeah, maybe.
**[09:13] Mikado**
If you're just going to ignore my
will and lock me up again, then...
**[09:19] Mikado**
I'm not just going to go along with it.
**[09:22] Mikado**
Or...
**[09:24] Mikado**
If you're going to keep sinking like this...
**[09:28] Mikado**
If you want to put an end
to everything, then...
**[09:39] Mikado**
Go ahead. That's fine.
**[09:42] Mikado**
I'll never forgive you, and I can't go with you...
**[09:46] Mikado**
But if this is the only way your
suffering will end, then...
**[09:51] Mikado**
I can't stop you.
**[09:54] Mikado**
But that means...
**[09:56] Mikado**
It means I wasn't your
destiny after all, right?
**[10:01] Mikado**
But you still haven't told me
**[10:05] Mikado**
what it is you truly wish for.
**[10:10] Mikado**
If it's hard to put it into words,
**[10:13] Mikado**
then just use whatever words
come most easily to you.
**[10:17] Mikado**
Your vocabulary is terrible, anyway.
**[10:20] Mikado**
Use whatever words come to mind.
**[10:25] Mikado**
Please, tell me.
**[10:27] Mikado**
And if it's the same as what I want to do,
**[10:32] Mikado**
then the two of us *are*
destined, without question.
**[10:36] young Hiyakawa**
I... I...
**[10:40] young Hiyakawa**
I h-hate it here.
**[10:43] young Hiyakawa**
The truth is...
**[10:44] young Hiyakawa**
Everyone said it was dangerous outside,
**[10:48] young Hiyakawa**
but I don't understand. I...
**[10:50] young Hiyakawa**
I wasn't even going to let the same
thing happen again, but...
**[10:55] young Hiyakawa**
I don't understand. I just don't understand.
**[10:58] young Hiyakawa**
I...
**[11:00] young Hiyakawa**
I...
**[11:01] young Hiyakawa**
I wanted you to know me, but...
**[11:05] young Hiyakawa**
I was scared.
**[11:08] Mikado**
Yeah.
**[11:09] young Hiyakawa**
I just...
**[11:11] Hiyakawa**
...want you to stay by my side.
**[11:16] Hiyakawa**
I want you to let me stay with you.
**[11:21] Mikado**
Right?
**[11:23] Mikado**
If you're with me, you won't be scared anymore!
**[11:30] Mikado**
Right?
**[11:32] Mikado**
If you're with me, you won't be scared anymore!
**[11:35] (Flashback) Hiyakawa**
If you're with me, you won't be scared anymore.
**[11:40] Hiyakawa**
But... I can't destroy this pl—
**[11:44] Hiyakawa**
Huh?
**[11:51] Hiyakawa**
We're back...
**[11:53] Mikado**
Man, I'm exhausted.
**[11:54] Mikado**
Let's get out of here.
**[11:56] Hiyakawa**
Mikado-kun...
**[11:57] Hiyakawa**
How did you do this?
**[12:03] Mikado**
Let's go. Everyone's worried.

**[12:40] Erika**
This one's ready!
**[12:42] Mikado**
Oh, thanks.
**[12:45] Sakaki**
Next, we'll do skirt steak...
and maybe some fatty pork, too.
**[12:49] Mukae**
Order a few veggies, too, would you?
**[12:51] Mukae**
You know, leaves. Wrap it in leaves and eat it!
**[12:57] Erika**
Rihito-kun, if you don't grab as
much as you can, it'll all be gone!
**[13:01] Hiyakawa**
Oh... Right.
**[13:03] Mukae**
What do you expect? How many days do you
think we went without meat to save you?
**[13:09] Mukae**
Excuse me! Can I place an order?
**[13:12] Mukae**
Okay, if I can get the roast and...
**[13:13] Erika**
I'll have three orders of beef tongue.
**[13:15] Sasaki**
Do you have makgeolli?
**[13:16] Erika**
Will that be enough?
**[13:17] Mikado**
Here.
**[13:19] Mikado**
"Meat is especially tasty after
physical exertion." Right?
**[13:24] Mikado**
Though it wasn't physical labor this time.
**[13:30] Erika**
Kousuke-kun...
**[13:32] Erika**
Was it really okay to
just leave Sensei behind?
**[13:36] Sakaki**
He's still alive, right?
**[13:38] Mikado**
Yeah, he's alive.
**[13:40] Mikado**
He ended up in a sort of stupor, though.
**[13:46] Mikado**
I'm pretty sure he's alive.
**[13:48] Mikado**
With his heart unbroken,
just as he was back then...
**[13:52] Mikado**
Anyway!
**[13:52] Mikado**
We can just leave the rest
to Hanzawa-san now, right?
**[13:56] Mikado**
Thanks to the documents
Erika-chan got her hands on,
**[13:58] Mikado**
he said Investigation Division
Two will be coming in.
**[14:02] Erika**
Meaning they're gonna nab
them on tax evasion, right?
**[14:06] Sakaki**
Even if they get an indictment,
it probably won't amount to much.
**[14:10] Sakaki**
But it's gotta be better than doing nothing.
**[14:12] Erika**
Yeah.
**[14:14] Erika**
For now, let's ask my mom over tomorrow
and have sushi. The three of us.
**[14:18] Erika**
The super expensive kind!
**[14:19] Sakaki**
We've lost our jobs, but we've still got money.
**[14:22] Sakaki**
We'll get the super expensive kind.
**[14:24] Mukae**
I've been invited to a couple
of drinking parties after this.
**[14:27] Mukae**
Maybe I'll go bar-hopping.
**[14:29] Erika**
Wow. You've got a lot of energy.
**[14:31] Mukae**
Well, going through something like this
**[14:34] Mukae**
makes you want to interact with
the good side of people, right?
**[14:36] Mukae**
For me, the place for that
is in a crowd of people.
**[14:40] Mukae**
Huh? What is it?
**[14:42] Hiyakawa**
Oh, um... You're a very
patient person, aren't you?
**[14:47] Mukae**
You trying to pick a fight or something? Huh?
**[14:49] Hiyakawa**
Oh, um... No, I wasn't.
**[14:57] Hiyakawa**
Thank you... for talking with me.
**[15:04] Mukae**
Don't mention it!
**[15:07] Hiyakawa**
That hurts.
**[15:09] Mukae**
I said I was gonna slug you, didn't I?
**[15:13] Mukae**
So take that!
**[15:17] server**
Thank you very much!
**[15:21] Erika**
I'm so full!
**[15:23] Mikado**
It was killing me toward the end...
**[15:26] Sakaki**
The thing about meat is, by the time
you're free to eat as much as you want,
**[15:30] Sakaki**
you can't eat as much as you want anymore.
**[15:32] Mikado**
I don't want to hear it!
I don't want to hear it!
**[15:34] Mukae**
I think I'll be able to forgive
you after three more hits.
**[15:38] Hiyakawa**
I don't want that.
**[15:39] Mukae**
What if I win at rock-paper-scissors?
**[15:41] Hiyakawa**
I don't want that!
**[15:44] Mikado**
Whoa!
**[15:45] Mikado**
What are you doing?
**[15:48] Hiyakwa**
Well, I...
**[15:49] Hanzawa**
Hey! On your way home?
**[15:52] Mikado**
Hanzawa-san!
**[15:53] Erika**
We're already done eating.
**[15:55] Hanzawa**
I didn't come to eat.
**[16:05] Hanzawa**
Hiyakawa. No... Rihito.

Hey, Rihito-kun.
**[16:22] (Flashback) Hanzawa**
How goes the studying?
**[16:24] (Flashback) young Hiyakawa**
Hanzawa-san! Hello!
**[16:26] (Flashback) Hanzawa**
Hello. It's been a while.
**[16:29] (Flashback) young Hiyakawa**
Studying is fun!
**[16:31] (Flashback) Hanzawa**
Really? I'm glad.
**[16:33] (Flashback) Hanzawa**
Your handwriting's gotten better.
**[16:37] (Flashback) Hanzawa**
I'm sorry, but...
**[16:38] (Flashback) Hanzawa**
Could I ask you some questions again?
**[16:41] (Flashback) Hanzawa**
I know you've settled in a bit,
and I don't want to trouble you...
**[16:45] (Flashback) young Hiyakawa**
It's fine.
**[16:46] (Flashback) young Hiyakawa**
But... when I'm with you, I keep
forgetting more and more of before.
**[16:52] (Flashback) young Hiyakawa**
I even forget that I should
never, ever forget.
**[16:56] (Flashback) Hanzawa**
It's all right. If you *can* forget,
then that's for the best.
**[17:02] Hanzawa**
I'm sorry.
**[17:04] Hanzawa**
I didn't manage to save you, not for real.
**[17:10] Hanzawa**
Even if it seemed like meddling,
I should have intervened more.
**[17:14] Hanzawa**
If I had—
**[17:15] Hiyakawa**
No.
**[17:16] Hiyakawa**
You've saved me all this time.
**[17:20] Hiyakawa**
You've kept saving me ever since then, but I...
**[17:25] (Flashback) Hanzawa**
Hey! Have you eaten?
**[17:28] (Flashback) Hanzawa**
How have you been lately?
**[17:30] (Flashback) Hanzawa**
Don't take any dangerous jobs.
**[17:34] Hiyakawa**
I wasn't able to understand that.
**[17:40] Hanzawa**
Ah, man...
**[17:43] Hanzawa**
Well, there's no such thing as too late.
**[17:46] Hanzawa**
Come and stay at my place tonight.
I'll let Saeko know.
**[17:50] Hiyakawa**
Huh?
**[17:51] Hanzawa**
You know, I've been telling you...
**[17:53] Hanzawa**
A place with a human-shaped stain on
the floor is no place for a person to live.

Do you want to know about your dad?
**[19:16] Mikado**
What're you doing?
**[19:19] Hiyakawa**
Oh, you...
**[19:21] Mikado**
Morning.
**[19:24] Hiyakawa**
Good morning.
**[19:26] Hiyakawa**
I thought you might not come back again.
**[19:28] Mikado**
Huh? Why?
**[19:31] Hiyakawa**
The contract...
**[19:39] Mikado**
We don't need it.
**[19:40] Mikado**
The truth is, we never needed it at all.
**[19:45] Mikado**
That's what I think.
**[19:47] Mikado**
And you figured that out too, didn't you?
**[19:50] Hiyakawa**
Yes... that's true.
**[19:53] Hiyakawa**
Yes.
**[19:54] Hiyakawa**
Um, may I ask a question?
**[19:58] Mikado**
Oh, you want to know how
I destroyed that curse?
**[20:01] Hiyakawa**
Yes. The core of that hatred
**[20:05] Hiyakawa**
was something I'd held
on to for a long time.
**[20:09] Hiyakawa**
Then he used it for his own purposes...
**[20:12] Hiyakawa**
It was something that I thought
I couldn't destroy, and you...
**[20:16] Mikado**
I didn't do anything.
**[20:18] Hiyakawa**
But...
**[20:20] Mikado**
Actually, I think it was already gone.
**[20:24] Mikado**
That was just the wreckage.
**[20:26] Mikado**
There was no hate left in
that place, or inside you.
**[20:32] Mikado**
But that didn't mean that your
suffering would just disappear,
**[20:36] Mikado**
and that must have been frustrating.
**[20:38] Mikado**
But it makes *me* glad, at least.
**[20:40] Hiyakawa**
But, um...
**[20:42] Hiyakawa**
I-It makes me uneasy! Suddenly, it's like...
**[20:46] Hiyakawa**
I've got this vacant room.
**[20:51] Mikado**
A vacant room?
**[20:53] Mikado**
In that case, fill it with something else.
**[20:56] Hiyakawa**
With what, specifically?
**[21:02] Mikado**
You're the one who said it, and you forgot?
**[21:05] Hiyakawa**
What?
**[21:06] Mikado**
Take all the time you need to think about it.
**[21:09] Mikado**
I'll stay right here beside you.
**[21:14] Mikado**
Anyway, I'm gonna make you work to make
up for all the time you skipped out on.
**[21:18] Hiyakawa**
Right. After that, will you
accompany on a private matter?
**[21:23] Mikado**
What is it?
**[21:24] Hiyakawa**
I'm moving. Hanzawa-san was
very insistent about it last night.
**[21:28] Mikado**
Sure, I guess...
**[21:29] Mikado**
But it's not going to be easy
to find a new place.
**[21:33] Hiyakawa**
I wanted to ask for your
help in getting it clean.
**[21:39] Mikado**
So you picked another stigmatized property?
**[21:43] Mikado**
But, you know, cleaning a vacant apartment
**[21:46] Mikado**
makes me remember our first job.
**[21:48] Hiyakawa**
Ah, yes. You were quite lively and loud.
**[21:51] Mikado**
What did you expect?
**[21:53] Mikado**
You boasted about how I wouldn't be scared
if you were there, but it didn't happen.
**[21:59] Hiyakawa**
You made the same b-boast, didn't you?
