[01:31] sensei
    What's the whole family doing here?
[01:35] Erika's mom
    My husband hasn't come home, so I asked
     the two of them to show me here.
[01:39] Erika's mom
    I thought he might have left a note.
[01:41] sensei
    That's right. Both Hiura-kun
    and Matsui-kun are gone.
[01:45] sensei
    It might've been my doing...
    But I can't remember.
[01:49] sensei
    It really is a problem.
[01:50] Sakaki
    Sensei, it doesn't look like
    we'll find anything here,
[01:53] Sakaki
    so we'll take our leave,
    along with Erika's mother.
[01:57] sensei
    You seem different somehow.
[01:59] sensei
    What is it?
[02:00] sensei
    Oh, I see the girl's taking
    very good care of you.
[02:04] sensei
    What did you have her do?
    You're not as dense as before.
[02:08] sensei
    That's so nice.
[02:10] sensei
    To be able to change at someone else's
    hand... I don't have that anymore.
[02:15] sensei
    Because I barred...
[02:18] Erika
    Stop, Sensei! Let him go!
[02:29] Erika's mom
    Run, Erika!
[02:31] Erika's mom
    Run away! Hurry!
[02:33] Erika
    But...
[02:35] Erika
    Sakaki-san?
[02:36] Erika
    It isn't true, right, Sakaki-san?
[02:37] Erika's mom
    Erika, run right now!
    On your own if you have to! Hurry!
[02:41] (Flashback) Sakaki
    When you run,
[02:42] (Flashback) Sakaki
    if you don't take me with you...
[02:45] Erika
    No. He's coming with me, no matter what!
[02:47] Erika
    There's still time. I'll make the time!
[02:51] Erika
    O Death...
[02:53] Erika
    Can you hear me? You can hear me, right?
[02:55] Erika
    Whoever's there, look at me.
[02:59] Erika
    Look this way.
[03:01] Erika
    Before you consume that man.
[03:02] Erika
    Do you understand what kind of person I am?
[03:06] Erika
    I can love you, all of you.
[03:09] Erika
    Just look this way.
[03:13] Erika
    That's right.
[03:14] Erika
    You love me more than him, don't you?
[03:17] Erika
    Come to me.
[03:18] Erika
    I will embrace you.
[03:25] Sakaki
    Wh-What did you do to me?
[03:29] Erika
    Welcome back. Looks like I made it in time.
[03:32] Erika
    The aftertaste from the death
    of someone I know is the worst.
[03:35] Erika's mom
    Erika, take this and go.
[03:37] Erika
    Huh?
[03:39] Erika's mom
    I was never able to
    protect you. So please...
[03:43] Erika
    What will you do, Mother?
[03:45] Erika's mom
    I'll be all right. It'll work out somehow.
[03:48] Erika's mom
    No matter how inexplicable,
[03:50] Erika's mom
    in the end, all of it stems from
     the actions of a human.
[03:56] Erika
    Do my inexplicable powers...
[03:58] Erika
    make you afraid of me?
[04:01] Erika's mom
    Yes... I am afraid.
[04:04] Erika's mom
    But...
[04:06] Erika's mom
    No matter what you may have been born with,
[04:09] Erika's mom
    it isn't your fault... and it isn't mine, either.
[04:13] Erika's mom
    It's taken me all this time to realize that.
[04:19] Erika's mom
    Go now! Hurry!
[04:23] Sakaki
    My car's being tracked. What should we do?
[04:27] Erika
    Wait! This has...
[04:29] Erika
    a car key in it. And one
    that looks like a house key...
[04:32] Erika
    And a bankbook, and a smartphone and...
SIGN    Takimoto No. 3  Parking
[04:37] Erika
    "Takimoto No. 3 parking?"
[04:43] Sakaki
    That one, huh?
[04:45] Sakaki
    What about the phone?
[04:47] Erika
    It unlocked.
[04:49] Erika
    It's the four digits of my birthday.
[04:52] Erika
    This says she rented a condo.
[04:54] Sakaki
    Then let's try heading there for now.
[05:01] Erika
    I wish...
[05:03] Erika
    she'd saved me sooner...
[05:06] Sakaki
    Fear is a poison. Once it's
    been instilled in you,
[05:09] Sakaki
    you can't do anything.
[05:34] Sakaki
    This place is way too nice for a hideout.
[05:38] Sakaki
    We should rest for tonight.
[05:40] Sakaki
    You can sleep as much as you want.
[05:42] Sakaki
    And I won't wake you in the morning.
[05:43] Sakaki
    I'm tired, too.
[05:48] Sakaki
    But tomorrow...
[05:50] Sakaki
    Tomorrow, once we wake up...
[05:52] Sakaki
    The world we live in will
    have become a battlefield.

[06:13] Erika
    Morning. Welcome back.
[06:16] Erika
    Thank you.
[06:19] Erika
    We'll fight.
[06:22] Erika
    I'm not scared of anything anymore.
[06:29] Mikado
    How do things pile up like this?
[06:31] Hiyakawa
    Isn't it because you don't take
    care of them regularly?
[06:35] Mikado
    Is this even my job in the first place?
[06:40] Mikado
    What's this?
[06:41] Mikado
    "E H"?
[06:43] Mikado
    Erika-chan?
[06:44] Hiyakawa
    What is it?
[06:48] Mikado
    There's only a URL written here.
[06:51] Mikado
    It's a chat app.
SIGN    Member search
[06:53] Mikado
    And voice chatting's on.
[06:56] Mikado
    Hello? I wonder if she can hear me...

    Hello?
SIGN    Member search
[07:00] Sakaki
    Miss, they've called.
[07:02] Erika
    Hello? Kousuke-kun?
[07:04] Mikado
    Erika-chan, has something happened?
[07:06] Erika
    Yeah. I'm glad I was able to get in touch.
[07:08] Erika
    I can't charge my phone, so...
[07:11] Erika
    Can you get in touch with everyone else?
SIGN    Mika
SIGN    Hanzawa
[07:14] Erika
    At any rate, I'm fine.
[07:17] Erika
    Sakaki-san died for a second, though.
[07:19] Mukae
    Died for a second?!
[07:20] Sakaki
    I'd rather not do it again.
[07:22] Hanzawa
    I'm sorry. This is my fault.
[07:24] Hanzawa
    It was a rash proposal.
[07:26] Erika
    Right now, we're in a safe place,
[07:28] Erika
    but I don't think we can go
    back to the house or to school.
[07:31] Erika
    Not until we finish this.
[07:33] Erika
    But this has actually helped
    me steel my resolve.
[07:36] Mikado
    Is your mother all right?
[07:39] Erika
    Yeah. Though it's all a little one-sided,
[07:41] Erika
    we've been able to communicate.
SIGN    Cash Accounts Ledger
[07:43] Erika
    Also, she sent us the Research
    Society's account ledgers
[07:46] Erika
    along with my dad and
     the secretary's smartphones.
[07:49] Erika
    She gambled everything
    to help us get away.
[07:52] Erika
    I have to save her.
[07:54] Mikado
    I see.
[07:56] Mikado
    She must have been getting things
    ready for you all this time.
SIGN    Mika
[07:59] Mikado
    Which means we really need to do
    something about that Sensei person.
[08:02] Erika
    It's Sensei's powers that we're scared of,
[08:05] Erika
    so if we can find a way to
    weaken them somehow...
[08:08] Mikado
    Can we do that?
[08:09] Erika
    If we know his name.
[08:11] Erika
    He seems hung up about it...
[08:15] Erika
    And the truth is, names
    have a particular potency.
[08:17] Hanzawa
    Just make sure you don't do anything crazy.
[08:20] Hanzawa
    I'd like to take you under my protection,
[08:22] Hanzawa
    but it's pointless against
    an occult-type, isn't it?
[08:24] Erika
    Oh... Yes, that's true.
[08:26] Erika
    It's probably safest if
    no one else is around.
[08:30] Erika
    And not so that I can run away.
[08:32] Erika
    I don't want to let Sensei
    do anything else, either.
[08:35] Erika
    If I can keep anyone else
    from being sacrificed,
[08:38] Erika
    I feel like it might atone for
    some of what I've done.
[08:43] Mikado
    All right. We'll think on it, too.
[08:45] Mukae
    I'll use my connections and ask around.
[08:48] Mukae
    Might know someone who's well-versed
    in different organizations.
[08:50] Hanzawa
    Everyone, make sure you
    don't do anything crazy.
[08:53] Hanzawa
    Once you've copied the account
    ledgers, send one my way.
[08:56] Erika
    Okay. Thanks, everyone.
[08:59] Erika
    We'll talk later.
SIGN    Mika
[09:03] Mikado
    Well, that's a sudden turn of events...
[09:07] Mikado
    Hey, are you okay?
[09:08] Mikado
    You didn't say anything. You're not thinking
    of disturbing stuff again, are you?
[09:15] Hiyakawa
    What do you mean, "disturbing"?
[09:16] Mikado
    Stop. What are you thinking?
[09:19] Hiyakawa
    I thought it'd be easier to just go
    and take everything from him directly.
[09:24] Mikado
    Huh? Take what from him?
[09:25] Hiyakawa
    Everything. His money, power, possessions...
[09:29] Mikado
    What?! What are you saying?
[09:32] Hiyakawa
    It seems dubious.
[09:33] Hiyakawa
    It's obvious that it's the best
    solution, but no one brought it up.
[09:37] Hiyakawa
    And besides—
[09:39] Mikado
    No, I'll hear you out.
    Finish what you want to say.
[09:42] Hiyakawa
    Finish? There isn't much more.
[09:45] Mikado
    Of course there is. You keep
    saying there isn't anything...
[09:48] Mikado
    What's the deal?
[09:49] Hiyakawa
    What do you mean, "what"?
[09:50] Hiyakawa
    It isn't fair.
[09:53] Mikado
    Huh?
[09:54] Hiyakawa
    It's not fair! I don't have anything—
[09:59] Hiyakawa
    No...
[10:00] Hiyakawa
    If power and money cause harm,
    you should just take them.
[10:05] Hiyakawa
    Wouldn't taking them serve
    as the greatest punishment?
[10:08] Mikado
    Punishment?
[10:10] Mikado
    It's not our place to punish, is it?
[10:13] Mikado
    Wait... There's something...
[10:15] Mikado
    What's wrong? You're getting emotional...
[10:17] Hiyakawa
    Please don't meddle the way you did before.
[10:20] Mikado
    Please tell me what you're angry
    about and why. In detail, and in words.
[10:25] Hiyakawa
    I'm not particularly angry.
[10:29] Mikado
    To me, it looks like you aren't
    aware of your own emotions.
[10:33] Mikado
    That kind of thing makes me really sad...
[10:35] Mikado
    I hate it.
[10:37] Hiyakawa
    Is it a good thing to be
    aware of one's emotions?
[10:40] Mikado
    Well, I mean, if you just keep
    holding on to bad feelings...
[10:46] Hiyakawa
    Your virtuous intentions
    really are violent to me.
[10:50] Hiyakawa
    Do you gain some benefit
    from being sad for my sake?
[10:54] Mikado
    It isn't about benefit or loss! That's just...
[10:57] Mikado
    Are you... really asking because
    you just don't understand?
[11:03] Mikado
    All I said was... that kind
    of thing makes me sad...
[11:08] Hiyakawa
    Aren't you the one who needs
     to regain his composure?
[11:11] Mikado
    Huh?
[11:11] Mikado
    No, I... Look, let's face the problem
     head-on, and together—
[11:15] Hiyakawa
    You will...
[11:16] Hiyakawa
    be calm.
[11:19] Hiyakawa
    Please cool your head.
[11:22] Mikado
    Listen!
[11:23] Mikado
    Ignoring something because you
    don't want to hear it is cowardly!
[11:26] Mikado
    Do you hear me?!
[11:28] Mikado
    Listen to me!
[11:41] Saori
    It's been a while.
[11:43] Mikado
    Huh?
[11:44] Mikado
    Is this...
[11:46] Saori
    I haven't seen you since
    you investigated my pond.
[11:49] Saori
    It makes me very happy that you've come back.
[11:52] Mikado
    The house you can't leave
    once you've entered...
[11:55] Mikado
    Why?
[11:57] Saori
    Back then, your boss opened
    that without asking and left.
[12:01] Saori
    I wondered what he was planning.
[12:04] Saori
    He must have wanted to lock you in here.
[12:09] Mikado
    I-I'm sorry for intruding so suddenly!
[12:11] Mikado
    If you'll excuse me!
[12:12] Saori
    No.
[12:13] Saori
    Now that you're here, please
    relax and spend some time.
[12:17] Mikado
    No, I dropped by unexpectedly, and...
    I don't really know what's going on.
[12:24] Mikado
    This...
[12:25] Mikado
    was a gate before, not a wall, wasn't it?
[12:30] Saori
    "A house you can't leave"
    makes it sound so terrible.
[12:33] Saori
    It's like a scary story.
[12:35] Mikado
    Yeah, but...
[12:36] Saori
    It's only that I want the guests
    I like to stay a little longer.
[12:40] Mikado
    Isn't that what "can't leave" means?
[12:43] Mikado
    Besides... you seem different
    from the last time we met.
[12:48] Saori
    Oh, you can tell?
[12:51] Saori
    You see, I've stayed in this house a long
    time, and became one with its master.
[12:58] Saori
    My father was the same.
[13:01] Saori
    But I keep forgetting that, over and over.
[13:05] Saori
    That's why I do things like
    call in spiritualists,
[13:08] Saori
    even though I am a being who chooses
    myself so we can live together.
[13:12] Mikado
    So... there are two of you, right?
[13:15] Mikado
    The one in the pond,
    and the living human one.
[13:19] Mikado
    Are you a youkai?
[13:20] Saori
    A youkai?
[13:22] Saori
    Isn't that very unscientific?
[13:23] Mikado
    Huh?
[13:24] Saori
    To stay with this house forever...
[13:27] Saori
    The humans of this place, as many
    as possible, for as long as possible...
[13:32] Saori
    shall continue to be cursed by me unto death.
[13:36] Saori
    Which is why I must make
     a child to inherit this house.
[13:41] Mikado
    Will it be a hybrid of human and curse?
[13:45] Saori
    It will. Do you think that seems
     more fitting than "youkai"?
[13:50] Mikado
    I don't understand curses at all.
[13:53] Mikado
    I don't understand the feeling
    of wanting to curse someone.
SIGN    Worst Group Suicide Since WWII
[13:57] Mikado
    But right now, that feeling
    might be what I need to stop.
[14:00] Mikado
    That's why I want to know.
[14:01] Saori
    You want to stop someone from being cursed?
[14:04] Mikado
    No, I want to stop the cursing altogether.
[14:07] Saori
    Why? You won't let that
    person do as they please?
[14:11] Mikado
    Why? Once something like that
    is done, there's no going back.
[14:15] Mikado
    Isn't that awful, no matter
     how you think about it?
[14:18] Saori
    What a pure person you are.
[14:19] Saori
    You've never hated someone from
    the bottom of your heart, have you?
[14:23] Saori
    The moment you hate from your heart,
[14:26] Saori
    you no longer possess
    anything precious to you.
[14:30] Saori
    Once that happens, you can destroy anything.
[14:33] Saori
    That is what it means to curse.
[14:37] Mikado
    I... want to stop that from
    happening. No matter what.
[14:42] Saori
    Oh, dear. But there are times
    when hate brings people to life.
[14:46] Saori
    And times when said hate serves as the lone
    support that allows them to keep living.
[14:50] Mikado
    But... that's incredibly sad, isn't it?
[14:53] Saori
    Pure and arrogant, aren't you?
[14:55] Saori
    Say, is this person you want to
    save worthy of your help?
[15:01] Mikado
    Huh?
[15:02] Saori
    There's no need to do
    something so troublesome.
[15:04] Saori
    You can stay here forever, if you'd like.
[15:07] Saori
    I wouldn't mind taking you as my bride.
[15:10] Mikado
    Your bride?! I-I'm leaving.
[15:12] Mikado
    And I believe everyone
    deserves to be saved.
[15:16] Saori
    Even if the person has
    committed grave crimes?
[15:18] Mikado
    Well, I mean...
[15:20] Mikado
    If I bend from what I believe to be right,
[15:24] Mikado
    I'm sure I won't be able to save anyone.
[15:26] Saori
    By stealing someone's curses,
[15:28] Saori
    the hatred that may be giving
    them life, from them...
[15:32] Saori
    What will you achieve?
[15:35] Saori
    What if hate is that person's everything?
[15:39] Saori
    Can you be the replacement for that hatred?
[15:42] (Flashback) Hiyakawa
    Our meeting must have been destiny!
[15:49] Saori
    Well, I'll see you off, then.
[15:51] Saori
    Though it makes me sad.
[15:56] Mikado
    There's a gate.
[15:57] Saori
    You know, if you want to undo a curse,
    you should consider that person's hate.
[16:04] Saori
    It may be beyond the imagination
    of someone like you, though.
[16:08] Saori
    But you are kind.
[16:11] Saori
    So perhaps you will be able to make it
    so that person no longer needs to curse.
[16:17] Mikado
    Seriously, what are you doing to me?
SIGN    Hiyakawa
SIGN    What did you do to me?  I got out anyway!  Where are you?

[16:23] Mikado
    Left me on read, huh? Typical!
[16:26] Mikado
    Well, I guess I'll try heading to the
    absolute worst place I can imagine.
[16:31] Hiyakawa
    When I meet my destiny, I'll know.
[16:35] Hiyakawa
    It will be mine, and it will save me.
[16:39] Hiyakawa
    If I get good results, I just know
    Mikado-kun will understand, too.
[16:47] Hiyakawa
    I must become one of those who control.
[16:50] Hiyakawa
    That which is mine...
[16:54] sensei
    Oh...
[16:56] sensei
    So it's you. Nice to make your acquaintance.
[17:00] sensei
    I've been wanting to meet you.
[17:03] Hiyakawa
    And what are you?
[17:04] sensei
    What do you mean, "what"?
    How should I answer that?
[17:08] Hiyakawa
    This was my house!
[17:11] Hiyakawa
    Once...
[17:12] Hiyakawa
    I destroyed it.
[17:14] Hiyakawa
    Back then, I forgot something here.
[17:16] Hiyakawa
    It's no wonder I can't find it.
[17:18] Hiyakawa
    You stole it.
[17:20] sensei
    That's rude. It's just a coincidence.
[17:23] sensei
    Or maybe you could call it destiny?
[17:25] sensei
    I had a home, too, but it
    fell apart a long time ago.
[17:29] sensei
    It wasn't me who destroyed it.
[17:32] sensei
    No, wait... Who was it?
[17:35] sensei
    Anyway, right... The thing you forgot...
[17:38] sensei
    When I encountered it, it was like destiny.
[17:41] sensei
    It saved me.

    I will do anything. I'll do
    anything. Anything...
[18:04] (Flashback) sensei
    If the hatred has no bounds,
    then I can do anything.
[18:11] (Flashback) sensei
    Things are finally looking
    good for the company!
[18:14] (Flashback) sensei
    It was worth all the work.
[18:16] (Flashback) sensei
    Is your wife doing well?
[18:19] (Flashback) sensei
    I'm grateful to you for
    taking me into your family.
[18:23] (Flashback) sensei
    Family is such a nice thing, isn't it?
[18:27] (Flashback) Matsumi
    Please forgive me... Please release me...
[18:30] (Flashback) Matsumi
    What is it that we're supposed to have done?
[18:33] (Flashback) sensei
    What, you ask?
[18:34] (Flashback) sensei
    After showing off your happy family
    like that, you say you did nothing?
[18:39] (Flashback) sensei
    You arrogant fool!
SIGN    Palm of the Hand Research
[18:44] (Flashback) sensei
    How splendid...
[18:47] (Flashback) sensei
    Let's build a castle here.
[18:50] (Flashback) sensei
    Here, there is...
[18:54] sensei
    ...buried gold.
[18:57] Hiyakawa
    What are you?
[18:58] Hiyakawa
    Is this backlash from a curse?
[19:01] Hiyakawa
    No, did you curse yourself?
[19:04] Hiyakawa
    I've never seen a human as ugly as you.
[19:07] sensei
    That's so mean. I just know
    you and I could get along.
[19:11] sensei
    Besides... are you really one to talk?
[19:16] sensei
    When your own body is filled
    to the brim with hate?
[19:19] sensei
    You'll become like this one day.
[19:22] sensei
    That's because you stole what's mine!
[19:25] Mikado
    There you are!
[19:27] Mikado
    What do you think you're
    doing? We're heading back!
[19:30] Hiyakawa
    Mikado-kun...
[19:31] Hiyakawa
    Why are you...
[19:33] sensei
    Huh?
[21:04] Hiyakawa
    ????????????-kun...
[21:06] Hiyakawa
    Why are you...
[21:07] Mikado
    After we get back somewhere safe,
     we're gonna have a real talk.
[21:13] Mikado
    Whatever's going on here, is it dangerous?
[21:18] (Flashback) Mikado's mom
    Did you forget?
[21:21] (Flashback) Mikado's mom
    You know you have a habit of running
    from painful things, right?
[21:26] (Flashback) Mikado's mom
    You can't do that. We're going to be parents.
[21:30] Mikado
    Isn't this... really bad?
[21:33] (Flashback) Mikado's mom
    ????????????-kun. Be brave.
[21:36] (Flashback) Mikado's mom
    Face yourself.
[21:41] Hiyakawa
    He's breaking up.
[21:43] Mikado
    Whatever! We need to run! Hurry!
[21:46] Hiyakawa
    I have business here.
[21:48] Mikado
    What?!
[21:49] Mikado
    We're going! Now!
[21:50] Hiyakawa
    Why do you defy me?
[21:53] Mikado
    This isn't the time or place
    to have a conversation!
[21:55] Mikado
    Let's go!
[21:56] Hiyakawa
    It's an important conversation.
[21:58] Mikado
    But not right now! And do you even have
    any intention of discussing things?!
[22:02] Mikado
    People don't do what you think they
    will, and you can't make them!
[22:05] Hiyakawa
    I am different.
[22:06] Mikado
    What?!
[22:07] Mikado
    Whatever power you might have,
    that isn't something you should do!
[22:10] Hiyakawa
    I...
[22:13] Hiyakawa
    I had that done to me for so long.
[22:16] Mikado
    Wait...
[22:18] Mikado
    Do you and I have some
    kind of fundamental—
[22:20] sensei
    Who are you?
[22:25] Hiyakawa
    That belongs to me! Give it back!
[22:28] Hiyakawa
    It's mine and mine alone! My precious hatred!
[22:32] man
    Excuse me...
[22:33] man
    I live in the house over there, and I was
     hoping you could tone it down...
[22:36] sensei
    Who are you?!
[22:38] Mikado
    Crap!
[22:39] man
    What is this?!
[22:42] (Flashback) female part-timer
    You know about the trolley problem, right?
[22:45] (Flashback) female part-timer
    The thing where you can
    only save one or the other.
[22:47] (Flashback) Mikado
    What are the two people like?
[22:48] (Flashback) female part-timer
    You decide that for yourself.
    What would you do, Mikado-kun?
[22:52] (Flashback) Mikado
    Well... I guess I'd save the weaker one.
[22:56] (Flashback) Mikado
    I'd save the one who's more in
    need of saving in that moment.
[23:05] Hiyakawa
    Mika—
[23:06] Mikado
    Hiyakawa-san! Please run! Hurry!
[23:09] Mikado
    I'll take care of him!
[23:10] Hiyakawa
    Why are you protecting him... and not me?
[23:14] Hiyakawa
    Someone who has no connection to you...
[23:17] Mikado
    It's because he's not connected to this! I...
[23:20] Hiyakawa
    I don't understand. Perhaps
    you aren't my destiny...
[23:25] sensei
    Who...
[23:27] Hiyakawa
    Give it back.
[23:31] Mikado
    Hiyakawa-san?
[23:33] Hiyakawa
    You are my...
