[00:48] Shoudai (Age 35)
The world began as a single bubble
formed deep in the water.
[00:54] Koyomi (Age 8)
A bubble?
[00:56] Shoudai (Age 35)
Yes.
[00:57] Shoudai (Age 35)
Think of the direction toward
the deep is the past,
[00:59] Shoudai (Age 35)
and the direction of
the surface as the future.
[01:03] Shoudai (Age 35)
As it rises, the bubble grows larger,
[01:07] Shoudai (Age 35)
and before long, it splits.
[01:11] Shoudai (Age 35)
We're in one of those split-off bubbles.
[01:17] Shoudai (Age 35)
And the other bubbles we aren't in
[01:21] Shoudai (Age 35)
are alternate worlds,
which we call "parallel worlds."
[01:24] Koyomi (Age 8)
Parallel worlds?
[01:27] Shoudai (Age 35)
Worlds where you made different choices.
[01:30] Shoudai (Age 35)
Although, the closer the parallel world,
the less diverged it is from ours.
[01:35] Shoudai (Age 35)
The only difference might be whether
you had toast or rice for breakfast.
[01:41] Shoudai (Age 35)
So, sometimes you can be
Parallel Shifting without knowing it.
[01:46] Koyomi (Age 8)
Parallel Shifting?
[01:48] Shoudai (Age 35)
That's where you move into a parallel world.
[01:50] Koyomi (Age 8)
You can go to one?
[01:52] Shoudai (Age 35)
Your imaginality— Er, only
your consciousness, that is.
[01:57] Shoudai (Age 35)
You know how things you've lost sometimes
turn up where you swear you already looked?

[02:02] Shoudai (Age 35)
It's thought that a large
number of instances
[02:06] Shoudai (Age 35)
of forgetfulness and misremembering are due
[02:08] Shoudai (Age 35)
to Parallel Shifts you
don't realize occurred.
[02:13] Shoudai (Age 35)
The study of parallel worlds
[02:16] Shoudai (Age 35)
is the subject of our
research. Imaginary science.
SIGN Imaginary Science Research Institute
[02:22] Koyomi (Age 8)
So, are there lots of parallel worlds?
[02:26] Shoudai (Age 35)
That's right.
[02:28] Shoudai (Age 35)
New ones for every choice we make.
[02:31] Shoudai (Age 35)
We'd better get going.
[02:33] Shoudai (Age 35)

Yeah. Talk to you later.
[02:58] Shoudai (Age 35)
She said that Yuno died.
[03:00] Koyomi (Age 8)
What?
[03:02] Shoudai (Age 35)
She darted into the street during her walk,
[03:04] Shoudai (Age 35)
and was hit by a car.

Huh?
[05:43] Shiori (Age 8)
What's wrong?
[05:49] Shiori (Age 8)
Are you crying?
[05:52] Koyomi (Age 8)
I'm not crying!
[05:55] Koyomi (Age 8)
Yes, you are.
[05:56] Koyomi (Age 8)
I said I'm not!
[05:59] Shiori (Age 8)
No, you're definitely crying.
[06:01] Koyomi (Age 8)
Shut up.
[06:05] Koyomi (Age 8)
I miss Yuno.
[06:07] Shiori (Age 8)
Who's Yuno?
[06:10] Koyomi (Age 8)
My grandpa's dog.
[06:13] Shiori (Age 8)
You can't see her again?
[06:16] Koyomi (Age 8)
No... 'cause she's dead now.
[06:21] Koyomi (Age 8)
Yuno's dead now, so I'll never
get to see her again!
[06:49] Koyomi (Age 8)
Hey, come with me.
[06:55] Koyomi (Age 8)
Hey! Where are we going?
[06:57] Shiori (Age 8)
Shh!
[06:58] Shiori (Age 8)
Or my mom will spot us!
[07:00] Koyomi (Age 8)
What?
[07:02] Koyomi (Age 8)
Your mom works here, too?
[07:05] Shiori (Age 8)
Yeah. Why else would I be here?
[07:09] Koyomi (Age 8)
Huh...
[07:18] Koyomi (Age 8)
Whoa!
[07:19] Koyomi (Age 8)
What is this thing?
[07:21] Shiori (Age 8)
An IP Capsule.
[07:24] Shiori (Age 8)
If you get in it, you can go
to parallel worlds.
[07:27] Koyomi (Age 8)
What? Parallel worlds?
[07:30] Shiori (Age 8)
Worlds where you made different choices.
[07:34] Shiori (Age 8)
They differ bit by bit, like whether
your rice ball was plum or tuna mayo.
[07:40] Shiori (Age 8)
You might be able to go
to a world where Yuno's alive.
[07:50] Shiori (Age 8)
Okay, I'm closing it now.
[07:51] Koyomi (Age 8)
H-Hold on!
[07:53] Koyomi (Age 8)
What do I do once I'm inside?
[07:55] Shiori (Age 8)
Wish.
[07:56] Shiori (Age 8)
Think, "I want to see Yuno."
[07:58] Koyomi (Age 8)
Wish?
[08:00] Shiori (Age 8)
My mom says it's important to believe.
[08:04] Shiori (Age 8)
She says only people who keep
believing can change the world.
[08:09] Koyomi (Age 8)
Uh... Hey!
[08:16] Shiori (Age 8)
There.
[08:20] Koyomi (Age 8)
Does she really know how to use that?
[08:25] Koyomi (Age 8)
Guess I'll give it a shot.
[08:32] Koyomi (Age 8)
I want to see Yuno.
[08:33] Koyomi (Age 8)
I want to see Yuno!
[08:35] Koyomi (Age 8)
Yuno! Yuno! Yuno!
[08:48] Koyomi (Age 8)
This is...
[08:52] Koyomi (Age 8)
Yuno?
[08:58] Koyomi (Age 8)
Yuno!
[09:03] Koyomi (Age 8)
Yuno!
[09:07] Koyomi (Age 8)
Yuno!
[09:11] Koyomi (Age 8)
It's really you!
[09:13] Koyomi (Age 8)
Cut it out. Hey.
[09:16] Koyomi (Age 8)
Hey! Yuno!
[09:17] Koyomi (Age 8)
Where are you going?
[09:19] Koyomi (Age 8)
Yuno! Slow down!
[09:28] Koyomi (Age 8)
I'm home... That's still
what I should say, right...
[09:34] Koyomi (Age 8)
Oh, sorry.
[09:42] Mayumi (Age 35)
Welcome back.
[09:44] Mayumi (Age 35)
I put your outfit in your room,
so go get changed.
[09:48] Mayumi (Age 35)
It'll be starting soon.
[09:51] Koyomi (Age 8)
What will?
[09:54] Koyomi's Great Uncle
Shoudai-kun, was it?
[09:57] Shoudai (Age 35)
Oh, yes. It's been quite a while.
[10:01] Shoudai (Age 35)
Koyomi...
[10:14] Koyomi (Age 8)
Grandpa...
[10:20] Koyomi's Great Uncle
Well then, I'll see you
tomorrow, Mayumi-chan.
[10:24] Mayumi (Age 35)
Thank you very much.
[10:26] Koyomi's Great Aunt
Oh, little Koyomi-kun cried so much!
[10:29] Koyomi's Great Aunt
Yasuto-san was truly a good grandpa.
[10:32] Mayumi (Age 35)
Yes.
[10:47] Koyomi (Age 8)
Yuno...
[10:55] Mayumi (Age 35)
Koyomi. Time for bed.
[10:58] Mayumi (Age 35)
Tomorrow's a busy day, too.
[11:01] Koyomi (Age 8)
Mom...
[11:03] Koyomi (Age 8)
Can I sleep in your room with you?
[11:11] Koyomi (Age 8)
Ow!
[11:16] Koyomi (Age 8)
That hurt...
[11:19] Koyomi (Age 8)
Huh?
[11:23] Koyomi (Age 8)
This is...
[11:25] Koyomi's Grandpa
Oh, you're up, Koyomi.
[11:27] Koyomi (Age 8)
Grandpa!
[11:30] Koyomi (Age 8)
You're alive?
[11:31] Koyomi's Grandpa
My goodness, that's quite a thing to say.
[11:47] Koyomi (Age 8)
So I'm back, then...
[11:59] Koyomi's Grandpa
What's wrong?
[12:03] Koyomi (Age 8)
Nothing. Where's Mom?
[12:05] Koyomi's Grandpa
She already left for work.
[12:07] Koyomi (Age 8)
Oh.
[12:08] Koyomi's Grandpa
You know, it was nice to have you
sleep in my room like old times.
[12:12] Koyomi (Age 8)
Grandpa,
[12:18] Koyomi (Age 8)
make sure to live a long time.
[12:19] Koyomi's Grandpa
What's gotten into you?
[12:21] Koyomi's Grandpa
Not to worry. I've still got
plenty of life left in me!
[12:25] Koyomi (Age 8)
Yeah, I bet you do. It's just...
[12:31] Koyomi (Age 8)
I'll come visit again.
[12:37] Researcher A (20s)
"Then please light a fire," said the bunny.
[12:41] Researcher A (20s)
The man did as he was told, gathering
dry wood and starting a fire.
[12:44] Koyomi (Age 8)
Hey.
[12:47] Shiori (Age 8)
You made it back?
[12:48] Koyomi (Age 8)
Thankfully, yeah. Somehow.
[12:51] Shiori (Age 8)
I'm sorry!
[12:52] Shiori (Age 8)
The truth is that
I wanted to Parallel Shift.
[12:56] Koyomi (Age 8)
Huh?
[12:57] Shiori (Age 8)
I want to go to a world where
my mom and dad aren't divorced.
[13:02] Shiori (Age 8)
But I need someone to operate the IP
Capsule, so I tried to get you to help me.
[13:08] Koyomi (Age 8)
I gotcha. So you helped me
with my wish first...
[13:12] Shiori (Age 8)
But I hadn't thought
about the coming back part.
[13:16] Shiori (Age 8)
I'm sorry.
[13:18] Koyomi (Age 8)
Don't sweat it. I did get to see Yuno.
[13:21] Shiori (Age 8)
You did?!
[13:22] Koyomi (Age 8)
Oh... Yeah, I did.
[13:24] Shiori (Age 8)
You saw her...
[13:26] Shiori (Age 8)
I'm glad.
[13:28] Koyomi (Age 8)
I didn't really get it, though.
[13:31] Shiori (Age 8)
Get what?
[13:33] Koyomi (Age 8)
The difference between
being alive and being dead.
[13:36] Shiori (Age 8)
Isn't that just whether
something has life in it or not?
[13:40] Koyomi (Age 8)
I mean, yeah, but like...
[13:43] Koyomi (Age 8)
It's just, the Yuno I saw alive
was so fluffy, and warm...
[13:48] Koyomi (Age 8)
But Yuno's grave was cold and quiet.
[13:53] Koyomi (Age 8)
And Grandpa... I'm sure he also...
[13:55] Shiori (Age 8)
Maybe that's what having life is.
[13:58] Koyomi (Age 8)
What?
[13:59] Shiori (Age 8)
If they're alive, they're warm
and you can play together,
[14:03] Shiori (Age 8)
but if they're dead, they're cold.
[14:06] Shiori (Age 8)
It means their world has ended, and...
[14:11] Shiori (Age 8)
Um...
[14:13] Koyomi (Age 8)
Their possibilities are gone?
[14:16] Shiori (Age 8)
Yeah, possibilities!
[14:18] Shiori (Age 8)
Yuno's warmth is
the warmth of possibilities!
[14:21] Shiori (Age 8)
Being alive on one hand,
or dead on the other.
[14:24] Shiori (Age 8)
I think the difference in warmth
between the two—that's life.
[14:30] Koyomi (Age 8)
You know, you're really something.
[14:33] Shiori (Age 8)
No, I'm really not.
[14:35] Koyomi (Age 8)
Okay, so now it's your turn.
[14:37] Shiori (Age 8)
Huh?
[14:39] Koyomi (Age 8)
The possibility where your mom
and dad don't divorce.
[14:48] Koyomi (Age 8)
So...
[14:49] Koyomi (Age 8)
How do you work all that?
[14:52] Shiori (Age 8)
Just push stuff.
[14:53] Koyomi (Age 8)
What?!
[14:54] Shiori (Age 8)
Press whatever seems right to you.
[15:00] Koyomi (Age 8)
Well, that still worked
for my Parallel Shift, so...
[15:04] Koyomi (Age 8)
We'll give that a shot, I guess.
[15:10] Koyomi (Age 8)
Okay, I'm closing it.
[15:16] Koyomi (Age 8)
Stop thinking about how much you want
tuna mayo or whatever, and make your wish.
[15:21] Koyomi (Age 8)
You must be hungry, making a face like that.
[15:26] Shiori (Age 8)
Very funny.
[15:34] [Itoko] (Age 35)
And just what might you two be up to?
[15:37] Koyomi (Age 8)
Oh, uh, we...
[15:39] Shiori (Age 8)
Mom!
[15:40] Koyomi (Age 8)
What?!
[15:44] Koyomi (Age 8)
I didn't know your mom was the director.
[15:48] Shiori (Age 8)
Yeah...
[15:49] Koyomi (Age 8)
She started lecturing us,
[15:49] (Flashback) [Itoko] (Age 35)
In other words, the world is a macro bubble,
and we are micro bubbles inside it.
[15:51] Koyomi (Age 8)
and it basically turned into
a lecture on parallel worlds.
[15:54] (Flashback) [Itoko] (Age 35)
Parallel Shifting is the phenomenon
of micro bubbles swapping places.
[15:54] Shiori (Age 8)
Yeah, when she gets going on something,
she loses sight of everything else.
[15:56] (Flashback) [Itoko] (Age 35)
The IP Capsule, an Einzvach's Cradle...
[16:00] Koyomi (Age 8)
Dude, you're the same way, y'know.
[16:04] Koyomi (Age 8)
Like mother, like daughter, I guess.
[16:07] Koyomi (Age 8)
I'm not just "dude."
[16:08] Koyomi (Age 8)
Huh?
[16:09] Shiori (Age 8)
Call me by my name.
[16:12] Koyomi (Age 8)

[17:50] Koyomi (Age 14)
Huh?
[17:51] Shiori (Age 14)
You know, helping people.
Let's find someone who needs help.
[17:56] Koyomi (Age 14)
All right, but...
[17:59] Koyomi (Age 14)
why this again all of a sudden?
[18:00] Shiori (Age 14)
I mean, summer break
starts tomorrow, doesn't it?
[18:05] Koyomi (Age 14)
That's not really an answer.
[18:07] Shiori (Age 14)
Koyomi-kun, do you hate helping people?
[18:10] Koyomi (Age 14)
No.
[18:12] Koyomi (Age 14)
I mean, if someone needs it,
then sure, I'll help them.
[18:15] Koyomi (Age 14)
Right?
[18:17] Shiori (Age 14)
So we need to find somebody.
[18:19] Koyomi (Age 14)
Okay, okay.
[18:34] Koyomi (Age 14)
We didn't find anybody.
[18:38] Shiori (Age 14)
No...
[18:39] Koyomi (Age 14)
But hey, the fact no one needs help
is a good thing, right?
[18:44] Shiori (Age 14)
That's true.
[18:47] Koyomi (Age 14)
So why'd you bring up helping people, anyway?
[18:55] Shiori (Age 14)
I saw my dad.
[18:57] Shiori (Age 14)
For the first time since the divorce.
[19:02] Koyomi (Age 14)
Uh-huh...
[19:03] Shiori (Age 14)
He said he loves me so much.
[19:09] Shiori (Age 14)
And said to be the kind of person
[19:11] Shiori (Age 14)
who can help others
without expecting a return.
[19:14] Koyomi (Age 14)
That's why you suggested it?
[19:17] Shiori (Age 14)
Yeah.
[19:21] Koyomi (Age 14)
In that case, if I ever have
a problem one day, help me out.
[19:26] Koyomi (Age 14)
What's that look?
[19:27] Koyomi (Age 14)
Is there a problem if it's me?
[19:29] Shiori (Age 14)
I mean, if it's you,
[19:31] Shiori (Age 14)
then I can't say, "My name's not important.
I'm nobody special," can I?
[19:35] Koyomi (Age 14)
Excuse me?
[19:36] Shiori (Age 14)
That's how helping without
expecting a reward has to go, right?
[19:40] Shiori (Age 14)
You help someone you don't know,
they ask your name, and then you respond,
[19:44] Shiori (Age 14)
"My name's not important. I'm nobody special."
[19:48] Shiori (Age 14)
That can't work if it's you.
[19:53] Koyomi (Age 14)
Y'know, you're surprisingly dumb sometimes.
[19:56] Shiori (Age 14)
What?! How so?
[20:00] Shiori (Age 14)
Hey, dumb how?
[20:20] Koyomi (Age 14)
The view is supposed to be
pretty here at night.
[20:24] Shiori (Age 14)
Is it?
[20:26] Koyomi (Age 14)
You can even see the factories back there.
[20:28] Koyomi (Age 14)
I guess it's a little far, though.
[20:32] Shiori (Age 14)
Let's see for ourselves, then.
[20:33] Koyomi (Age 14)
Huh?
[20:34] Shiori (Age 14)
Let's come here at night sometime
before summer break ends.
[20:41] Koyomi (Age 14)
Why not now?
[20:42] Shiori (Age 14)
Because I'm starving right now.
[20:47] Koyomi (Age 14)
Good point.
[21:02] Koyomi (Age 14)
Trying to help people every day
like this really tires you out...
[21:10] Koyomi (Age 14)
Huh?
[21:11] Koyomi (Age 14)
What?
[21:12] Koyomi (Age 14)
Crap. Seriously?!
SIGN Koyomi,
I have something very important to discuss.
Come to the Research Institute at 11. -Dad

Imaginary science starts
with hypothesizing the existence
[21:19] [Itoko]
of a conceptual space
called imaginary space.
SIGN Imaginary Science Research Institute

[21:24] [Itoko] (Age 41)
The world is produced by an overlapping

That's the foundational idea
of imaginary science.
[21:30] [Itoko] (Age 41)
That's the foundational idea
of imaginary science.
[21:33] [Itoko] (Age 41)
In contrast to physical space, which is
composed of elementary particles,
[21:36] [Itoko] (Age 41)
imaginary space is composed
of imaginary elements,
[21:39] Koyomi (Age 14)
You're here, too?
[21:41] Shiori (Age 14)
My mom told me to be here.
[21:41] [Itoko] (Age 41)
and differences in their changes
give rise to parallel worlds.
[21:44] [Itoko] (Age 41)
Imaginary elements themselves
have yet to be observed,
[21:45] Koyomi (Age 14)
Sorry.
[21:47] Shiori (Age 14)
It's fine.
[21:47] [Itoko] (Age 41)
but evidence of them has been observed,

in the form of patterns traced
by elementary particles.

is at the center of the effort
to represent IPs numerically.
[22:07] [Itoko] (Age 41)
In equational terms,
SIGN Number of values of P
SIGN elementary particles
SIGN pattern
[22:10] [Itoko] (Age 41)
we get this, and further...
[22:15] Shoudai (Age 41)
This would identify parallel worlds
[22:18] Shoudai (Age 41)
by expressing the difference
between IPs numerically.
[22:20] Shoudai (Age 41)
Call the world we're in now 0.
[22:23] Shoudai (Age 41)
The greater the number,
the further away the parallel world.
[22:27] Shoudai (Age 41)
That's the idea.
[22:28] Shiori (Age 14)
I kinda like it.
[22:30] Koyomi (Age 14)
Question.
[22:31] Koyomi (Age 14)
If you can identify worlds,
[22:32] Koyomi (Age 14)
can you Parallel Shift to a particular
world you want to go to?
[22:36] [Itoko] (Age 41)
That is a future possibility.
[22:38] [Itoko] (Age 41)
Right now, research is still working on
intentionally causing a Parallel Shift.
[22:42] [Itoko] (Age 41)
But the ultimate goal of the IP Capsule
is Parallel Shifting to specified worlds.
[22:48] [Itoko] (Age 41)
Like Optional Shifting.
[22:51] [Itoko] (Age 41)
Furthermore, changes in
imaginary elements produce time.
[22:57] [Itoko] (Age 41)
Time doesn't give rise to change,
[23:00] [Itoko] (Age 41)
change itself is time.
[23:03] Shoudai (Age 41)
Uh, so basically...
[23:06] Koyomi (Age 14)
Question.
[23:08] Koyomi (Age 14)
This isn't really boring, so I don't mind,
[23:10] Koyomi (Age 14)
but did you call us here just for
a lecture on imaginary science?

[23:16] Shiori (Age 14)

[23:28] Shoudai (Age 41)
The truth is, Satou—
Er, Director Satou and I...
[23:35] Shoudai (Age 41)
Um...
[23:36] [Itoko] (Age 41)
We're thinking of getting married.
[23:38] Shoudai (Age 41)
Whoa!
[23:39] Koyomi and Shiori (Age 14)
What?!
[23:47] Koyomi (Age 14)
I had no idea.
[23:48] Shiori (Age 14)
Yeah.
[23:50] Koyomi (Age 14)
Did you know?
[23:51] Shiori (Age 14)
No. I had no clue.
[23:53] Shiori (Age 14)
I do know they went to
college together, though.
[23:57] Koyomi (Age 14)
That does ring a bell.
[23:59] Shiori (Age 8)
The idea of having your dad be my dad...
[24:03] Shiori (Age 8)
That part doesn't bother me, but...
[24:07] Koyomi (Age 14)
The Director being my mom
doesn't bug me, either, but...
[24:12] Koyomi (Age 14)
Still...
[24:13] Shiori (Age 14)
You know what?
[24:16] Shiori (Age 14)
I just...
[24:19] Shiori (Age 14)
sorta felt that one day...
[24:23] Shiori (Age 14)
I would marry you, Koyomi-kun.
[24:30] Shiori (Age 14)
But...
[24:32] Shiori (Age 14)
if we're going to be siblings,
[24:35] Shiori (Age 14)
marriage is out of the question.
[24:44] Koyomi (Age 14)
Shiori.
[24:50] Koyomi (Age 14)
Let's run away.
[25:04] Koyomi (Age 14)
Where shall we go?
[25:07] Shiori (Age 14)
It doesn't matter to me.
[25:08] Shiori (Age 14)
Anywhere is fine, as long as I'm with you.
[25:12] Koyomi (Age 14)
And for how long?
[25:15] Shiori (Age 14)
A week?
[25:17] Shiori (Age 14)
A month?
[25:19] Koyomi (Age 14)
A year?
[25:20] Koyomi (Age 14)
A decade?
[25:23] Shiori (Age 14)
In that case, I wanna get a house.
[25:27] Shiori (Age 14)

[25:38] Koyomi (Age 14)
So we can have a dog.
[25:41] Shiori (Age 14)
A great big fluffy one.
[25:46] Koyomi (Age 14)
And then one day, we'll be adults.
[25:50] Shiori (Age 14)
And then one day, we'll get married.
[25:55] Koyomi (Age 14)
But until that day comes,
[26:00] Shiori (Age 14)
where can we go?
[26:21] Koyomi (Age 14)
This isn't gonna work, is it?
[26:24] Shiori (Age 14)
No...
[26:33] Shiori (Age 14)
I can't wait to be an adult.
[26:36] Koyomi (Age 14)
Where'd that come from?
[26:39] Shiori (Age 14)
Well, then we wouldn't get in trouble
for staying out after dark.
[26:43] Koyomi (Age 14)
We wouldn't be doing stuff
like this if we were adults.
[26:56] Shiori (Age 14)
It's just like you said, Koyomi-kun.
[27:00] Shiori (Age 14)
It's really pretty.
[27:07] Shiori (Age 14)
There's a dream I had.
[27:09] Koyomi (Age 14)
A dream?
[27:11] Shiori (Age 14)
A dream where my future self visits me.
[27:15] Shiori (Age 14)
And you know what?
[27:17] Shiori (Age 14)
My future self said that even in adulthood,
and even as an old lady,
[27:20] Shiori (Age 14)
I'd be with you.
[27:24] Koyomi (Age 14)
Oh.
[27:26] Shiori (Age 14)
She said when you're an old man,
you'll go senile and forget me.
[27:32] Shiori (Age 14)
Then after that, I help you,
[27:36] Shiori (Age 14)
and I say, "My name doesn't
matter. I'm nobody special."
[27:42] Koyomi (Age 14)
You'll definitely go senile before me.
[27:46] Shiori (Age 14)
Then, will you help me when that happens?
[27:51] Koyomi (Age 14)
I will.
[27:52] Shiori (Age 14)
You mean it?
[27:55] Koyomi (Age 14)
I promise. If you're in trouble,
I'll help you no matter what.
[28:06] Shiori (Age 14)
If only things could work out that way.
[28:10] Koyomi (Age 14)
They will.
[28:11] Koyomi (Age 14)
In that dream you had, I bet that was
some parallel you Shifting over to—
[28:16] Koyomi (Age 14)
Ah.
[28:17] Koyomi (Age 14)
Then she wouldn't be an old lady, huh?
[28:20] Shiori (Age 14)
That's it.
[28:21] Koyomi (Age 14)
Huh? What is?
[28:23] Shiori (Age 14)
Where we can go.
[28:26] Koyomi (Age 14)
What do you mean?
[28:27] Shiori (Age 8)
A parallel world!
[28:30] Shiori (Age 14)
There must be a world out there
where our parents haven't divorced!
[28:36] Koyomi (Age 14)
Right.
[28:37] Koyomi (Age 14)
In that world, my dad and the Director
also won't marry each other!
[28:41] Shiori (Age 14)
And we won't become siblings!
[28:43] Koyomi (Age 14)
Let's go, Shiori!
[28:45] Shiori (Age 14)
Yeah.
[28:53] Koyomi (Age 14)
Once we're in the parallel world,
where should we meet up?
[28:58] Shiori (Age 14)
How about... that spot with the view?
[29:03] Koyomi (Age 14)
Got it.
[29:17] Koyomi (Age 14)
Wh-What is it?
[29:19] Koyomi (Age 14)
I-It's small, so we have to be this close!
[29:22] Shiori (Age 14)
Yeah.
[29:23] Shiori (Age 14)
But I thought you'd get in
facing the other way.
[29:27] Koyomi (Age 8)
I'll turn around!
[29:28] Shiori (Age 14)
It's fine.
[29:29] Koyomi (Age 14)
Huh?
[29:31] Shiori (Age 14)
Don't.
[29:33] Shiori (Age 14)
Stay like this.
[29:37] Koyomi (Age 14)
Okay.
[29:44] Shiori (Age 14)
Now we make our wishes, right?
[29:47] Koyomi (Age 14)
Yeah.
[29:48] Koyomi (Age 14)
When we were little,
I Shifted by wishing to see Yuno.
[29:55] Shiori (Age 14)
So I just need to be thinking,
"I want to marry Koyomi-kun"?
[30:00] Koyomi (Age 14)
That's right.
[30:01] Koyomi (Age 14)
And I'll be thinking,
"I want to marry Shiori."
[30:07] Shiori (Age 14)
Koyomi-kun,
[30:09] Shiori (Age 14)
take me as your bride
in this parallel world.
[30:13] Koyomi (Age 14)
I will.
[30:16] Koyomi (Age 14)
Let's get married in the parallel world.

Everything was going so well.

Hey, wake up, Shiori.
[32:35] [Itoko] (Age 41)
The precision of the IP
observations isn't great.
[32:38] Shoudai (Age 41)
Yeah, and without detailed data, we can't
obtain a numerical representation...

Shiori's not breathing!
[33:29] Koyomi (Age 14)
How is she?
[33:30] Koyomi (Age 14)
Is Shiori okay?
[33:35] Shoudai (Age 41)
Her heart is beating.
[33:37] Shoudai (Age 41)
More accurately, it's being
kept beating artificially, but...
[33:44] Shoudai (Age 41)
She isn't waking up.
[33:48] Shoudai (Age 41)
She's in a state of brain death.
[33:57] Shoudai (Age 41)
I'm sorry for not realizing how
you two felt about each other.
[34:02] Shoudai (Age 41)
But you two were mistaken about something.

[35:15] [Itoko] (Age 41)
That's the name I've given
to Shiori's condition for now.
[35:20] [Itoko] (Age 41)
At a glance, her state is no
different from brain death.
[35:23] [Itoko] (Age 41)
However, they failed to find any
damage whatsoever to Shiori's brain.
[35:28] [Itoko] (Age 41)
It has simply suspended functioning.
[35:31] [Itoko] (Age 41)
I suspect that's has to do
with Parallel Shifting.
[35:37] Shoudai (Age 41)
Continue.
[35:39] [Itoko] (Age 41)
Expanding on what Koyomi heard
from the Shiori at the intersection...
[35:44] [Itoko] (Age 41)
Shiori faced a traffic accident
in the parallel world
[35:48] [Itoko] (Age 41)
and Shifted in an effort to return here.
[35:51] [Itoko] (Age 41)
However, directly after this,
Parallel Shiori's body died instantly.
[35:56] [Itoko] (Age 41)
Having no body to return to,
Parallel Shiori's imaginality perished.
[36:02] [Itoko] (Age 41)
Because of that, Shiori's imaginality
lost sight of its body,

[36:11] Shoudai (Age 41)
So the physical body's death overlapped

[36:16] Koyomi (Age 14)
This is all because we used
the IP Capsule on our own...
[36:20] [Itoko] (Age 41)
It was an unlucky accident.

To begin with, you can't Parallel

[36:31] Koyomi (Age 14)
But—
[36:32] [Itoko] (Age 41)
You want to bring up that you used it
to Parallel Shift once before, right?
[36:38] [Itoko] (Age 41)
That was most likely attributable to you.
[36:41] [Itoko] (Age 41)
You might possess a special trait that
makes it easy to cause a Parallel Shift.
[36:46] Koyomi (Age 14)
It was... me?
[36:47] Shoudai (Age 41)
I see. Imaginality is constantly wobbling.
[36:52] Shoudai (Age 41)
If we suppose that a Parallel Shift occurs
when the amplitude exceeds a fixed value,
[36:57] [Itoko] (Age 41)
then the greater the original amplitude,
the more easily a Shift can occur.
[37:02] Shoudai (Age 41)
What if we managed to control the amplitude?
[37:05] [Itoko] (Age 41)
Then even an Optional Shift
might be possible.
[37:08] Shoudai (Age 41)
Is there a possibility Shiori-kun
possessed the same trait?
[37:11] Shoudai (Age 41)
The reason only Koyomi can see
Shiori-kun may well lie with th—
[37:15] Koyomi (Age 14)
Can we help her?
[37:22] Koyomi (Age 14)
Is there a way to save Shiori?
[37:27] [Itoko] (Age 41)
If we could observe Koyomi's
imaginary elements, control them,
[37:31] [Itoko] (Age 41)
and tether them to their original
physical matter, her body,
[37:35] [Itoko] (Age 41)
then she might survive.
[37:37] [Itoko] (Age 41)
But imaginary elements exist in theory
and haven't even been observed.
[37:42] Koyomi (Age 14)
Then please, use me as a guinea pig!
[37:45] Koyomi (Age 14)
If you study me and figure out how I Shift
so easily, you might learn something!
[37:50] [Itoko] (Age 41)
Koyomi-kun...
[37:52] Koyomi (Age 14)
It's my fault that Shiori ended up this way.
[37:55] Koyomi (Age 14)
Because I was stupid and
didn't know anything...
[38:00] Koyomi (Age 14)
That's why she...
[38:03] [Itoko] (Age 41)
As I said earlier, this was an accident.
[38:06] [Itoko] (Age 41)
It's not anyone's—
[38:09] Koyomi (Age 14)
I don't care what happens
to me. Just save Shiori!
[38:12] Shoudai (Age 41)

[38:12] Koyomi (Age 14)
How could anyone stay calm right now?!
[38:15] Koyomi (Age 14)
How can you two be so unemotional?
[38:21] Koyomi (Age 14)
You should get mad and blame me!
[38:24] Koyomi (Age 14)
You should hit me and curse at me!
[38:27] Koyomi (Age 14)
Does what happened to your own
daughter not affect you at all?!

[38:47] [Itoko] (Age 41)
It's all right, Hidaka-kun.
[38:49] [Itoko] (Age 41)
It seems I'm always thinking with my head...
[38:53] [Itoko] (Age 41)
I'm a failure as a parent.

can't we at least take his

It was a measure taken

There was no world where Shiori survived.

[41:05] Koyomi (Age not specified)
is anything different?
[41:10] Shiori (Ghost)
I dunno.
[41:11] Shiori (Ghost)
You look the same.
[41:15] Koyomi (Age not specified)
I see.
[41:22] Shiori (Ghost)
A pigeon comes by here.
[41:24] Koyomi (Age not specified)
A pigeon?
[41:25] Shiori (Ghost)
Yeah.
[41:26] Shiori (Ghost)
By the bronze statue over there.
[41:29] Shiori (Ghost)
It's always alone, and it stays there
the entire time it's light out.
[41:33] Koyomi (Age not specified)
Huh.
[41:38] Shiori (Ghost)
I wonder if it's waiting for someone.
[41:55] Researcher A (30s)
Koyomi-kun, the last train's coming soon.
[41:59] Koyomi (Age 20)
I'm gonna work a little longer.
[42:01] Researcher A (30s)
You are?
[42:02] Researcher A (30s)
Then I'll leave locking up to you.
[42:05] Researcher B
Take it easy.
[42:06] Koyomi (Age 20)
Have a good night.
[42:13] Researcher A (30s)
It's so cold!
[42:15] Researcher A (30s)
Even with a warm winter,
it's freezing at night.
[42:17] Researcher B
Isn't Koyomi-kun overworking himself?
[42:20] Researcher B
He didn't go home yesterday, either.
[42:22] Researcher A (30s)
It's a good thing for
youngsters to work hard.
[42:25] Researcher A (30s)
For the country and
for our retirement years.
[42:28] Researcher B
Our retirement years aside,
[42:31] Researcher B
shall we have the Director talk to him
before he damages his health?
[42:34] Researcher A (30s)
The Director went to Fukuoka two days ago.
[42:37] Researcher A (30s)
Besides...
[42:41] Researcher A (30s)
When you think about how he feels...
[42:53] Koyomi (Age 20)
That's not it.
[42:55] Koyomi (Age 20)
The range will expand to infinity again.
[43:05] Koyomi (Age 20)

the same thing always happens.

[44:30] Shoudai (Age 47)
Come with me.
[44:33] Koyomi (Age 20)
Where?
[44:35] Shoudai (Age 47)
The Director contacted me.
[44:40] Shoudai (Age 47)
Shiori's body stopped her heart.
[45:53] Shiori (Ghost)
Koyomi-kun.
[45:55] Koyomi (Age 20)
Sorry I couldn't come by for a while.
[45:58] Shiori (Ghost)
No, it's oka—
[46:03] Shiori (Ghost)
Did something sad happen?
[46:05] Koyomi (Age 20)
Huh? No, uh...
[46:12] Shiori (Ghost)
I see.
[46:14] Shiori (Ghost)
There's somebody you'll never
be able to see again, right?
[46:22] Shiori (Ghost)
Koyomi-kun?
[46:26] Shiori (Ghost)
It's okay. It'll be okay.
[46:29] Shiori (Ghost)
You have me.
[46:31] Shiori (Ghost)
I'll always be at your side.
[46:33] Shiori (Ghost)
Okay?
[46:36] Koyomi (Age 20)
Shiori...
[46:42] Koyomi (Age 20)
Why, Shiori?
[46:45] Koyomi (Age 20)
Why...
[46:52] Shiori (Ghost)
Oh! Remember that pigeon?
[47:34] Shiori (Ghost)
What? Until noon?
[47:36] Koyomi (Age 27)
Yeah. I only meant to take a nap, though.
[47:41] Shiori (Ghost)
What are we going to do
with you, Koyomi-kun?
[47:43] Couple (Girl)
It tasted perfectly sweet,
and the place was just darling.
[47:44] Koyomi (Age 27)
I don't wanna hear that from you.
[47:48] Couple (Girl)
So I think we should
go together next time...
[47:50] Koyomi (Age 27)
What? You're so goofy.
[47:51] Couple (Girl)
C'mon! What're you looking at?
[47:54] Koyomi (Age 27)
I see the Director came by,
[47:56] Koyomi (Age 27)
even though she was invited
to a conference in Munich.
[47:59] Koyomi (Age 27)
Did she say anything?
[48:14] Koyomi (Age 27)
An assistant?
[48:15] Shoudai (Age 54)
She was recommended by an important
professor Satou had while studying abroad.
[48:20] Koyomi (Age 27)
The one in Munich?
[48:22] Shoudai (Age 54)
Satou said she interviewed her
while at the conference.
[48:25] Shoudai (Age 54)
She's apparently exceptional and has a PhD.
[48:28] Koyomi (Age 27)
Cool.
[48:29] Koyomi (Age 27)
But I don't need an assistant.
[48:32] Shoudai (Age 54)
I hear your research
isn't making very good progress.
[48:39] Shoudai (Age 54)
I'm sure she'll be helpful.
[48:41] Shoudai (Age 54)
Even just having someone to
talk to makes a big difference.
[48:44] Koyomi (Age 27)
No, it won't.
[48:46] Shoudai (Age 54)
Besides, isn't she older?
[48:48] Koyomi (Age 27)
I'd have to mind my manners—
[48:49] Kazune (Age 27)
We're the same grade level.
[48:51] Kazune (Age 27)
That said, I was born in March,
so my birth year is later than yours.
[48:57] Shoudai (Age 54)
You heard her.
[49:00] Kazune (Age 27)
My name is Kazune Takigawa.
[49:03] Kazune (Age 27)
I look forward to working
with you, Mr. Hidaka.
[49:08] Koyomi (Age 27)
It’s easier for me to work alone!
[49:10] Koyomi (Age 27)
I can't concentrate with people around.
[49:13] Shoudai (Age 54)
Mentoring is part of heading a lab.
[49:16] Koyomi (Age 27)
Mentor a PhD?
[49:17] Koyomi (Age 27)
As a high school graduate?
[49:19] [Itoko] (Age 54)
She requested it.
[49:22] Koyomi (Age 27)
Director...
[49:24] [Itoko] (Age 54)
Perhaps she's interested
in the young genius scientist
[49:28] [Itoko] (Age 54)
who proposed the inevitable event radius?
[49:31] Koyomi (Age 27)
Don't do that.
[49:36] [Itoko] (Age 54)
I won't force you.
[49:38] [Itoko] (Age 54)
But you can't get by in life
if you're always rejecting others.
[49:43] [Itoko] (Age 54)
As a parent,
[49:44] [Itoko] (Age 54)
I'm worried about my son.
[49:47] Koyomi (Age 27)
Mom...
[49:50] Koyomi (Age 27)
You fight dirty.
[49:52] Shoudai (Age 54)
Leave work at the proper time today
[49:54] Shoudai (Age 54)
and take her to dinner or something
to celebrate joining the Institute.
[49:57] Koyomi (Age 27)
What a pain...
[49:59] [Itoko] (Age 54)
Koyomi, take a shower before the dinner.
[50:02] Koyomi (Age 27)
Huh? It's that bad?
[50:04] [Itoko] (Age 54)
And shave and change your clothes.
[50:05] [Itoko] (Age 54)
And don't wear the usual worn-out one.

[50:38] Kazune (Age 27)

I was disappointed in you,

convinced you used parental connections.

And next, over there!
[53:16] Koyomi (Age 27)
I'll come by later.
[53:18] Shiori (Ghost)
Okay.
[53:19] Kazune (Age 27)
What?
[53:21] Kazune (Age 27)
You see it, too?

The ghost of the intersection.
[53:26] Kazune (Age 27)
You've never heard of it before?
[53:28] Kazune (Age 27)
It's just some urban legend,
but y'know, sometimes I see it.
[53:33] Koyomi (Age 27)
What do you mean? What do you see?
[53:36] Kazune (Age 27)
An indistinct thing shaped
like a person, that's all.
[53:42] Kazune (Age 27)
Only sometimes.
[53:46] Koyomi (Age 27)
Come on!
[53:47] Kazune (Age 27)
Huh?
[53:48] Kazune (Age 27)
Hold on a sec.
[53:51] Kazune (Age 27)
What's gotten into you? Hey!
[54:24] Kazune (Age 27)
Imaginary Element Fission Syndrome.
[54:27] Kazune (Age 27)
I see.
[54:28] Koyomi (Age 27)
I joined the Research Institute
to save Shiori.
[54:34] Kazune (Age 27)
Securing an IP...
[54:36] Kazune (Age 27)
Let's consider the IP Lock, which
the Deputy Director is researching.
[54:41] Kazune (Age 27)
It's meant to stabilize imaginality
and control Parallel Shifts,
[54:45] Kazune (Age 27)
but if adapted, it might be able
to salvage her imaginality.
[54:50] Kazune (Age 27)
If we assimilated that with her body—
[54:52] Koyomi (Age 27)
Shiori's body is already gone.
[54:56] Koyomi (Age 27)
It held up for a few years, but that was it.
[55:08] Kazune (Age 27)
So, what's your plan?
[55:09] Koyomi (Age 27)
Huh?
[55:10] Kazune (Age 27)
Since you're still at the Institute,
you must have an idea, right?
[55:18] Koyomi (Age 27)
I see.
[55:19] Koyomi (Age 27)
You certainly are outstanding.
[55:22] Kazune (Age 27)
This is what I mean about tact—
[55:23] Koyomi (Age 27)
I'm researching Time Shifts.
[55:27] Kazune (Age 27)
What?
[55:28] Koyomi (Age 27)
I'll send Shiori's imaginality
[55:30] Koyomi (Age 27)
into a world outside the event
radius of her accident.
[55:34] Koyomi (Age 27)
I'll Time Shift her to the point at
which that world splits from ours.
[55:39] Kazune (Age 27)
But Time Shifts are considered
theoretically impossible.
[55:43] Koyomi (Age 27)
Exactly.
[55:44] Koyomi (Age 27)
So I can't get a budget for it.
[55:47] Kazune (Age 27)
Misappropriation of research funds...
[55:49] Kazune (Age 27)
That's why you insisted on working alone.
[55:52] Koyomi (Age 27)
I want to help Shiori,
no matter what it takes!
[55:57] Kazune (Age 27)
Even now, she's at that intersection.
[55:59] Koyomi (Age 27)
Unseen, unnoticed,
[56:01] Koyomi (Age 27)
stuck there, always.
[56:05] Koyomi (Age 27)
That accident took away
Shiori's possibilities.
[56:08] Koyomi (Age 27)
So, I'm gonna make it so the cause
of her accident never existed!
[56:17] Koyomi (Age 27)
I told you this because you can see Shiori.
[56:20] Koyomi (Age 27)
Can you keep quiet about it for me?
[56:22] Kazune (Age 27)
You mean turn a blind eye?
[56:24] Koyomi (Age 27)
Please.
[56:30] Kazune (Age 27)
I won't let this go.
[56:33] Kazune (Age 27)
But I'm to be a joint researcher on this.
[56:36] Kazune (Age 27)
A contest to see who achieves
Time Shifting first: you or me.
[56:41] Kazune (Age 27)
Those are my conditions.
[56:46] Koyomi (Age 27)
Got it.

Yeah, but—
[58:41] Koyomi (Age 27)
Please!
[58:46] Koyomi (Age 27)
I beg you, please don't say stuff like that.

I want to keep living solely for you, Shiori.
[58:53] Koyomi (Age 27)
So please, don't tell me I've done enough.

you haven't forgotten that this place is

[1:00:32] Kazune (Age 38)
By becoming an administrative agency,

Though it's made convenience

[1:00:47] Kazune (Age 38)
A decade...
[1:00:49] Kazune (Age 38)
So much has happened in that time.
[1:00:52] Kazune (Age 38)
Like straightening up the lab,
[1:00:54] Kazune (Age 38)
more straightening up,
[1:00:56] Kazune (Age 38)
and more straightening up.
[1:00:57] Koyomi (Age 38)
Oh, come on. Is that all that comes to mind?
[1:01:00] Kazune (Age 38)
Direct observation of imaginary elements.
[1:01:03] Kazune (Age 38)
Optional Shifting achieved
practical realization,
[1:01:06] Kazune (Age 38)
and imaginary science advanced dramatically.
[1:01:10] Kazune (Age 38)
Even the mystery with you
and Shiori was explained.
[1:01:17] Kazune (Age 38)
Multiple imaginalities
with coherence regions in their IPs
[1:01:21] Kazune (Age 38)
can perceive each other in imaginary space
[1:01:26] Kazune (Age 38)
If the degree of coherence is extremely high,
communication becomes possible.

and Perception in Imaginary Space."
[1:01:37] Koyomi (Age 38)

[1:01:41] Kazune (Age 38)
You could stand to be a little
more grateful, y'know.
[1:01:44] Koyomi (Age 38)

[1:01:45] Kazune (Age 38)
Really?
[1:01:46] Koyomi (Age 38)

[1:01:48] Koyomi (Age 38)
Though, I haven't figured out

[1:01:53] Koyomi (Age 38)

[1:02:06] Koyomi (Age 38)
I've never seen it before.
[1:02:08] Kazune (Age 38)
You don't know it?
[1:02:09] Kazune (Age 38)
I had it recently and it was great.
[1:02:13] Kazune (Age 38)
Hey! What are you doing?
[1:02:15] Kazune (Age 38)
I went to the trouble of
bringing a glass, even.
[1:02:19] Koyomi (Age 38)
It doesn't make a difference.
[1:02:22] Kazune (Age 38)
It definitely does.
[1:02:36] Koyomi (Age 38)
The bubbles... are sinking?!
[1:02:38] Kazune (Age 38)
Neat, right?
[1:02:41] Kazune (Age 38)
The viscosity of the beer exceeds
buoyancy of the convecting bubbles
[1:02:45] Kazune (Age 38)
and they flow down along the glass.
[1:02:47] Kazune (Age 38)
It's called a Guinness Cascade.
[1:02:51] Koyomi (Age 38)
The viscosity of the beer... Bubbles...
[1:02:58] Koyomi (Age 38)
Viscosity...
[1:03:00] Koyomi (Age 38)
The concept of imaginary viscosity...
[1:03:03] Kazune (Age 38)
Koyomi?
[1:03:05] Kazune (Age 38)
Buoyancy and imaginary density...
[1:03:09] Kazune (Age 38)
Overwriting of IPs and stabilization...
[1:03:14] Shoudai (Age 35)
The world began as a single bubble
formed deep in the water.
[1:03:21] Koyomi (Age 38)
That's it.
[1:03:27] Koyomi (Age 38)
The world is a macro bubble
floating in the imaginary sea
[1:03:30] Koyomi (Age 38)
and we are micro bubbles inside it.
[1:03:33] Koyomi (Age 38)
Think from the standpoint
of this fundamental concept.
[1:03:37] Koyomi (Age 38)
First, extend the IP Capsule's functionality
and compress the target imaginary mass.
[1:03:42] Koyomi (Age 38)
Next, extend the functionality of IP Lock
and secure the target imaginality.
[1:03:48] Koyomi (Age 38)
If you create a vortex by overwriting
the IP of the surrounding imaginary space
[1:03:51] Koyomi (Age 38)
to generate a downdraft...
[1:03:56] Kazune (Age 38)
The now-smaller imaginality's buoyancy
falls below the imaginary viscosity,
[1:04:00] Kazune (Age 38)
and it begins to sink
into the imaginary sea.
[1:04:05] Koyomi (Age 38)
After sinking to the split point,
[1:04:08] Koyomi (Age 38)
it will fuse with the pre-split
imaginality due to high coherence,
[1:04:11] Koyomi (Age 38)
then regain its buoyancy.
[1:04:14] Koyomi (Age 38)
Time Shifting is possible!
[1:04:17] Koyomi (Age 38)
Shiori can be saved!
[1:04:19] Kazune (Age 38)
Yes.
[1:04:21] Kazune (Age 38)
Yes!
[1:04:24] Kazune (Age 38)
Congratulations.
[1:04:25] Kazune (Age 38)
You've pulled ahead of me again.
[1:04:29] Koyomi (Age 38)
What're you talking about?
[1:04:30] Koyomi (Age 38)
We discovered this together.
[1:04:33] Kazune (Age 38)
You really are amazing.
[1:04:39] Koyomi (Age 38)
Kazune?
[1:04:42] Kazune (Age 38)
That's said, it's still an untested theory.
[1:04:46] Kazune (Age 38)
The contest isn't over.
[1:04:52] Kazune (Age 38)
Here's to Koyomi Hidaka!
[1:04:54] Koyomi (Age 38)
Okay, I get it. I get it.
[1:04:58] Kazune (Age 38)
There's one thing still bugging me, though.
[1:05:02] Koyomi (Age 38)
Was there a mistake somewhere?
[1:05:04] Kazune (Age 38)
Not about the theory.
About the Shifted imaginality.
[1:05:07] Kazune (Age 38)
Once it fuses with the original imaginality,
[1:05:09] Kazune (Age 38)
there should be virtually
no traces left, right?
[1:05:13] Kazune (Age 38)
If that's the case,
then the Shifted imaginality...
[1:05:16] Koyomi (Age 38)
Most likely won't retain
its memories or personality.
[1:05:22] Kazune (Age 38)
Are you okay with that?
[1:05:25] Koyomi (Age 38)
If it means Shiori will live in a world
where she can find happiness.
[1:05:36] Kazune (Age 38)
And what is that world like?
[1:05:40] Koyomi (Age 38)
It's...
[1:05:43] Koyomi (Age 38)
a world where Shiori and I
will absolutely never meet.

Yeah.

Unfortunately, that's not possible.

[1:11:57] Koyomi (Age not specified but should be 8)

I never got to say sorry after our fight.

Did your old Grandpa
scold you for something?

mean Grandpa doesn't love you.

It's perfectly normal to want some company.

Okay.
[1:13:36] Koyomi's Mom
Now, let's get ready.
[1:13:39] Koyomi's Mom

[1:20:31] (Flashback) Kazune (Age 38)
What?
[1:20:33] (Flashback) Koyomi (Age 38)
The event radius for Shiori's accident is
inside the event radius for us meeting.
[1:20:39] (Flashback) Kazune (Age 38)
In other words, in a world outside
that radius, the accident won't occur.
[1:20:46] (Flashback) Kazune (Age 38)
How do you intend to
salvage her imaginality?

The correlation between IP coherence regions
and perception in imaginary space.
[1:21:01] (Flashback) Koyomi (Age 38)
Although the coherence is low,
[1:21:03] (Flashback) Koyomi (Age 38)
it's true that your and Shiori's IPs
have coherence regions.
[1:21:07] (Flashback) Koyomi (Age 38)
However, the relationship Shiori
and I share is not coherence.
[1:21:11] (Flashback) Koyomi (Age 38)
It's imaginary entanglement.
[1:21:14] Koyomi (Age 38)
During my repeated Parallel
Shifting experiments,
[1:21:17] Koyomi (Age 38)
No matter what parallel world I Shifted to,
I encountered a ghost Shiori.
[1:21:22] Koyomi (Age 38)
Just one of those times,
I spoke to that Shiori.
[1:21:25] Koyomi (Age 38)
However, the Shiori in our world
remembered what we discussed.
[1:21:30] Koyomi (Age 38)
Shiori had been Shifting along with me.
[1:21:32] (Flashback) Shiori (Ghost)
Oh! Remember that pigeon?
[1:21:35] (Flashback) Koyomi (Age 38)
Our imaginalities probably became entangled
when we Shifted together at age 14.
[1:21:42] (Flashback) Kazune (Age 38)
And so, if you Shift, Shiori will Shift, too.
[1:21:47] (Flashback) Koyomi (Age 38)

[1:21:50] (Flashback) Koyomi (Age 38)
I'll take Shiori there.

I'll come for you
at this intersection, Shiori.
[1:26:16] Shiori (Ghost)
August 17th...
[1:26:19] Koyomi (Age 73)
That's right.
[1:26:20] Koyomi (Age 73)
We'll be going back to when we were 7,
[1:26:23] Koyomi (Age 73)
so it'll be... 66 years from then.
SIGN July
SIGN July 17th
[1:26:27] Koyomi (Age 73)
I'll come for you at this same time. 10 AM.
[1:26:33] Shiori (Ghost)
Will you really?
[1:26:34] Koyomi (Age 73)
Yes. I promise you.
[1:26:40] Shiori (Ghost)
66 years...
[1:26:43] Shiori (Ghost)
It's so far off.
[1:26:45] Koyomi (Age 73)
It is.
[1:26:47] Koyomi (Age 73)
But that's the same amount of time
we've gone through together.
[1:26:53] Koyomi (Age 73)
We're just going to do it over again.
[1:26:57] Koyomi (Age 73)
Can you remember my promise for that long?
[1:27:03] Shiori (Ghost)
Yeah.
[1:27:04] Shiori (Ghost)
I won't forget. I swear.
[1:27:10] Koyomi (Age 38)
Well, then...
[1:27:12] Koyomi (Age 73)
I have to go now.
[1:27:13] Shiori (Ghost)
Okay.
[1:27:17] Koyomi (Age 73)
See you again, Shiori.
[1:27:20] Shiori (Ghost)
Yeah. See you again.
[1:27:31] Shiori (Ghost)
Koyomi-kun!
[1:27:35] Shiori (Ghost)
I'm glad I met you!
[1:27:40] Shiori (Ghost)
I love you.
[1:27:49] Kazune (Age 73)
A promise, huh?
[1:27:51] Koyomi (Age 73)
In other words, I thought we
could let that hope remain.
[1:27:58] Kazune (Age 73)
Indeed.
[1:28:05] Kazune (Age 73)
Is there anything you want to say?
[1:28:08] Koyomi (Age 73)
Like my final words?
[1:28:10] Koyomi (Age 73)
Hmm...
[1:28:12] Koyomi (Age 73)
Let's see...
[1:28:19] Koyomi (Age 73)
How beautiful.
[1:28:22] Koyomi (Age 73)
Is it an aquamarine?
[1:28:24] Kazune (Age 73)
Oh.
[1:28:25] Kazune (Age 73)
Isn't it nice?
[1:28:26] Kazune (Age 73)
I got a matching ring.
[1:28:29] Koyomi (Age 73)
It suits you.
[1:28:32] Kazune (Age 73)
Well, I'll close the Capsule now.
[1:28:34] Koyomi (Age 73)
Thank you.
[1:28:38] Koyomi (Age 73)
Thank you, Kazune.
[1:28:56] Kazune (Age 73)
Farewell, Koyomi.
[1:28:59] Kazune (Age 73)
May you find happiness.
[1:34:41] Koyomi (Age not specified but most likely 73)
So, I'm still alive.
[1:35:00] Koyomi (Age not specified but most likely 73)
Huh?
[1:35:07] IP device
Schedule notes.
[1:35:09] IP device
There is one entry on today's page.
[1:35:14] IP device
10 AM. August 17th.
Showa-dori Intersection.
[1:35:21] Kazune (Age not specified; but most likely 73)
An entry you don't recall?
[1:35:23] Koyomi (Age not specified but most likely 73)
Yeah.
[1:35:25] Koyomi (Age 73)
I have absolutely no memory of it,
but it was entered into my IP device.
[1:35:31] Kazune (Age not specified; but most likely 73)
I see. How strange.
[1:35:34] Kazune (Age not specified; but most likely 73)
Why not go?
[1:35:38] Kazune (Age not specified; but most likely 73)
Aren't you curious?
[1:35:40] Kazune (Age not specified; but most likely 73)
If you go there, you might
remember something.
[1:35:43] Koyomi (Age not specified but most likely 73)
That's true. And it's in the neighborhood.
[1:35:53] Koyomi (Age not specified but most likely 73)
I'll be back in a bit.
[1:35:55] Kazune (Age not specified; but most likely 73)
Yes, dear. Be careful.
[1:35:59] Kazune (Age not specified; but most likely 73)
Hold on.
[1:36:01] Kazune (Age not specified; but most likely 73)
Your hat. I'll go get it.
[1:36:05] Koyomi (Age not specified but most likely 73)
Oh, that one's fine.
[1:36:08] Kazune (Age not specified; but most likely 73)
This one?
[1:36:40] Shiori (Ghost)
What is this place?
[1:36:58] Shiori (Ghost)
A promise...
[1:37:16] Shiori (Ghost)
That's right... There's someone who...
[1:37:21] Koyomi (Age 14)
Shiori.
[1:37:30] Shiori (Age 14)
Koyomi... kun?
[1:37:33] Koyomi (Age 14)
Sorry to keep you waiting.
[1:37:36] Shiori (Age 14)
You came for me?
[1:37:39] Koyomi (Age 14)
Yeah. I'm here.
[1:37:43] Koyomi (Age 14)
Let's get married.
[1:38:13] Koyomi (Age not specified but most likely 73)
Excuse me, ma'am. If possible,
might I ask your name?
[1:38:18] Shiori (Age 73)
My name's not important. I'm nobody special.
