Train to the End of the World
In a seemingly ordinary rural town, something strange is happening to the residents. But Shizuru Chikura is more concerned for her missing friend. Determined to find her, Shizuru and three other girls board an abandoned train and travel to the outside world, unsure if they’ll make it back alive. As they venture toward the unknown, the question looms: What awaits them at the final stop?

[01:09] Pontaro
    Yes!
[01:10] Pontaro
    Instant communication and contact

[01:13] Pontaro
    That's the magic of the new
    technology that is 7G!
[01:15] Pontaro
    We couldn't catch up at all for 5G!
[01:17] Pontaro
    Totally late to the game with 6G!
[01:19] Pontaro
    But now, we'll reclaim our
    national honor with 7G!
[01:22] Pontaro
    There were those who opposed us!
[01:24] Pontaro
    Smear campaigns, even!
[01:26] Pontaro
    But we didn't back down in the face
    of their baseless fake news!
[01:29] Pontaro

[04:49] Masaharu
    Oh?
[04:50] Masaharu
    If it isn't Kazuyo-san and Granny Oito.
[04:52] Oito
    Why, we ran into each other by the bridge.
[04:55] Masaharu
    I thought you two got into a fight
    over some burlap sacks.
[04:59] Kazuyo
    That's all behind us now.
[05:01] Oito
    And have you made up with
    Kikko-chan yet, Masaharu?
[05:04] Masaharu
    Well, not exactly.
[05:06] Kazuyo
    Moaned about her cooking again, I'm sure.
[05:08] Oito
    Don't complain when she's the one making it.
[05:11] Masaharu
    You say that, but I'm a bear,
    and she's a muntjac.
[05:14] Masaharu
    Our tastes are night and day now.
[05:16] Kazuyo
    Tastes?
[05:17] Kazuyo
    How small-minded.
[05:19] Masaharu
    Am not!
[05:20] Kazuyo
    In the end, it's just food.
[05:22] Oito
    That's right.
[05:23] Oito
    Agano got off easy with animals.
[05:25] Oito
    Why, I hear there are places
    where everyone turned into trees.
[05:29] Masaharu
    Trees?
[05:29] Kazuyo
    The ones covering the mountains!
[05:31] Oito
    We're lucky to be animals who can move!
[05:33] Masaharu
    You think?
[05:34] Masaharu
    As a bear, I get hungry so quickly.
[05:36] Kazuyo
    If only you had turned 
    into a tree, Masaharu.
[05:39] Kazuyo
    Or a rock, or a mushroom,
    or a horsehair worm.
[05:41] Masaharu
    Wow, that's harsh.
[05:42] Oito
    Once you get used to it,
    life as an animal isn't so bad.
[05:45] Masaharu
    I mean, sure.
[05:47] Masaharu
    I've spent two years as a bear.
[05:49] Masaharu
    I'm used to it by now.
[05:50] Kazuyo
    That's right.
[05:51] Kazuyo
    Atsushi just turned into an aye-aye,
    and he still hasn't gotten over it.
[05:55] Masaharu
    That was Atsushi I saw
    roaming around at night?
[05:58] Masaharu
    He's that age already, huh?
[06:01] Kazuyo
    He said he'd have left Agano
    if he'd known this would happen.
[06:04] Oito
    He can leave all he wants, but Agano folk
    will always turn into birds or beasts.
[06:08] Kazuyo
    Oh, right.
[06:09] Kazuyo
    Even if you leave, you're still stuck
    turning into an animal, huh?
[06:12] Masaharu
    That reminds me.
[06:13] Masaharu
    Remember the kid who went missing
    before the 7G incident?
[06:15] Kazuyo
    I wonder what she's up to now.
[06:18] Kazuyo
    I think that Chikura girl
    is still looking for her.
[06:20] Masaharu
    It'd be one thing if she were in Agano,
[06:22] Masaharu
    but what if she turned into an animal
    in an unfamiliar place, all alone?
[06:26] Kazuyo
    What else can you do but adapt?
[06:27] Masaharu
    Ugh.
[06:28] Masaharu
    At least we don't have to pay for
    health insurance or pensions anymore.
[06:32] Oito
    It's not like there are even any clinics left,
[06:35] Oito
    and all that fussy bureaucracy's
    a thing of the past now.
[06:38] Kazuyo
    If you go all the way out to Inariyama Park,
[06:39] Kazuyo
    you can find a really good doctor in the area.
[06:42] Kazuyo
    Or so I hear, anyway.
[06:44] Masaharu
    Not happening!
[06:45] Masaharu
    Who knows how many years
    you'd waste trying to get out there.
[06:48] Oito
    Or whether you can even make it there alive.
[06:51] Masaharu
    Also, you don't even know whether
    they're a human doctor or not.
[06:54] Kazuyo
    A human doctor, you say?
[06:56] Masaharu
    They might be a doctor who treats humans.
[06:58] Masaharu
    Or a doctor who's still a human.
[07:00] Kazuyo
    Oh, you mean they might treat humans
    but not be human anymore?
[07:03] Kazuyo
    Or they can't treat humans,
    but they happen to be in human form?
[07:07] Kazuyo
    That skilled doctor
    in Inariyama Park, that is.
[07:10] Akira
    Is that like that "poop that
    tastes like curry" thing?
[07:12] Reimi
    That's so gross, Akira.
[07:13] Akira
    Huh?
[07:14] Akira
    I'm just asking a metaphysical question here.
[07:16] Reimi
    The heck's that mean?
[07:17] Oito
    You girls.
[07:19] Oito
    Are you going on about curry and
    whatnot because you're hungry?
[07:22] Oito
    If you don't mind crickets,
    I'm happy to share some of mine.
[07:25] Reimi
    No, thank you!
[07:26] Akira
    There's nothing wrong with
    eating bugs nowadays.
[07:28] Reimi
    No way! They're not cute!
[07:29] Akira
    I heard that they're nutritious.
[07:31] Reimi
    Nutrition's not the issue!
[07:33] Reimi
    Since the incident, we get a huge
    rice harvest six times a year,
[07:36] Reimi
    not to mention bitter melon,
    so I get plenty of calories.
[07:38] Reimi
    What I really need
    is cuteness and adventure!
[07:40] Akira
    Ugh, here comes the rampant escapism.
[07:43] Akira
    Or is it just excessive optimism?
    Head in the clouds?
[07:45] Reimi
    I know exactly what you're
    trying to say, Akira.
[07:48] Reimi
    You're making fun of me, aren't you?
[07:50] Akira
    Bingo!
[07:51] Reimi
    You make me so mad!
[07:52] Akira
    Learn more words.
[07:55] Nadeshiko
    Don't resort to fighting, no matter what!
[07:58] Reimi
    Akira started it!
[07:58] Nadeshiko
    No! Bad!
[08:01] Akira
    You got yelled at!
[08:03] Akira
    You got yelled at by Nadeko-chan!
[08:04] Nadeshiko
    That goes for you too, Akira-chan!
[08:07] Akira
    Okay.
[08:08] Nadeshiko
    There.
[08:09] Nadeshiko
    Good girl, Akira-chan.
[08:11] Nadeshiko
    You're a good girl too, Reimi-chan.
[08:12] Masaharu
    They sure are late.
[08:14] Masaharu
    Hey, Nadeko-chan.
[08:15] Masaharu
    Don't you think the Black Leopard
    caravan is awfully late?

[08:37] Reimi

[08:39] Akira
    Not that there's any point to discussing it.
[08:41] Oito
    What a sad thing to say.
[08:43] Akira
    Come now.
[08:44] Akira
    There's nothing sad about it.
[08:46] Akira
    Just cold, hard facts.
[08:47] Kazuyo
    Oh? Is that Zenjiro-san I spot?
[08:50] Akira
    A scenic hallmark of Agano.
[08:52] Kazuyo
    He used to be so tall and handsome.
[08:54] Kazuyo
    But when he came back
    to Agano two years ago,
[08:56] Kazuyo
    he'd become unable to say anything
    other than "choo-choo."
[08:59] Akira
    The weird thing about Zenjiro-san
    is that he managed to stay human.
[09:03] Akira
    Everyone else in Agano turns into an animal
[09:06] Akira
    when they turn 21 years
    and three months old.
[09:09] Nadeshiko
    Now that you mention it...
[09:10] Reimi
    That's right.
[09:11] Reimi
    We'll eventually turn into
    some sort of animal, too.
[09:16] Nadeshiko
    And you can't pick which one.
[09:18] Masaharu
    Sure are late...
[09:19] Kazuyo
    There you go again.
[09:20] Masaharu
    Can you blame me?
[09:21] Masaharu
    I might be able to eat meat
    for the first time in so long!
[09:24] Nadeshiko
    Do you prefer eating meat, then?
[09:27] Nadeshiko
    Over rice, sweet potatoes, and bitter melon?
[09:29] Masaharu
    Well, duh!
[09:30] Masaharu
    Meat is so good.
[09:32] Masaharu
    I'd love me some meat.
[09:33] Masaharu
    A steak, tender and bloody rare...
[09:36] Masaharu
    No, super rare.
[09:38] Masaharu
    Hell, I'd chomp down on some raw meat!
[09:41] Masaharu
    Wait...
[09:51] Shizuru
    Hey, now!
[09:52] Shizuru
    You greedy little sun bear!
[09:54] Masaharu
    Huh? What was I just...
[09:56] Shizuru
    Masa-san, that's no good!
[09:57] Shizuru
    You went total bear mode just now.
[09:59] Masaharu
    Wait, really? No joke?
[10:01] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan, how was your
    meeting after school?
[10:03] Shizuru
    Huh? Meeting?
[10:04] Shizuru
    Oh, it was totally no big deal.
[10:06] Nadeshiko
    He asked you about your career path, right?
[10:08] Shizuru
    Yeah, he asked what I wanted to do,
[10:10] Shizuru
    so I said, "look for her,"
    and he gave me a lecture.
[10:13] Akira
    By "her," you mean...
[10:31] Shizuru
    They're here.
[10:47] Neko
    Sorry we're late!

    I'm real grateful.
[10:59] Shizuru
    How was it, Neko-nii?
[11:00] Shizuru
    Did you hear anything?
[11:01] Neko
    Nope, another bust this time.
[11:04] Shizuru
    Oh...
[11:05] Shizuru
    What about rumors?
[11:06] Shizuru
    Like new faces in town, or people leaving.
[11:09] Shizuru
    Any rumors like that?
[11:11] Neko
    Nope, none that I heard.
[11:14] Neko
    Not many settlements are equipped
    for outside communication,
[11:17] Neko
    so you'd expect news to bubble up
    quickly if anyone new appeared.
[11:20] Neko
    How about you?
[11:21] Shizuru
    Nothing to report here in Agano.

    Please let me work with you!

    It's a sweet myrtle flower shrub.
[12:51] Reimi
    Sweet what?
[12:52] Reimi
    Let me see.
[12:53] Shizuru
    Why flowers?
[12:55] Shizuru
    Will it even grow here?
[12:56] Shizuru
    The only things that grow in Agano are rice,
    barleywheat, and bitter melon.
[13:00] Nadeshiko
    Yeah.
[13:01] Nadeshiko
    But I really wanted some sweet myrtle
    for some reason.
[13:04] Nadeshiko
    I wonder why I suddenly wanted it.
[13:07] Nadeshiko
    What could the reason be?
[13:08] Reimi
    Don't ask us.
[13:10] Akira
    Sweet myrtle?
[13:11] Akira
    Huh? I think, in the past...

    So what'd you buy, Akira?
[13:14] Akira
    The Book of Black Magic by Tatsuhiko.

    The only Tatsuhiko it could be

    The distance between train stations,
    and between towns,
[14:05] Shizuru
    suddenly grew to impossible lengths.
[14:07] Shizuru
    And it wasn't just the geography.
[14:08] Shizuru
    All the people and living things
    completely changed.
[14:12] Shizuru
    In Agano, all the grown-ups
    turned into animals.

    And while they can still reason like humans,

    I get the feeling that they'll
    fully turn into animals eventually.
[14:24] Shizuru
    But it could be a lot worse
    than it is in Agano.

[14:29] Shizuru
    Grandma!
[14:30] Shizuru
    Grandma Koyuki!
[14:31] Shizuru
    Look!
[14:46] Shizuru
    It took everyone by surprise at first.
[14:49] Shizuru
    Shock from being turned into weird animals,
[14:51] Shizuru
    as well as anger and utter despair.
[14:54] Shizuru
    A number of folks formed a survey team
    and ventured outside Agano.
[14:59] Shizuru
    Half of them got cold feet
    and came running back.
[15:02] Shizuru
    The other half never returned.
[15:04] Nadeshiko
    Grandma Koyuki was crying.
[15:06] Reimi
    I mean, she did find out that 
    her only grandchild is alive.
[15:10] Reimi
    They must be tears of joy.
[15:11] Nadeshiko
    That makes sense.
[15:12] Reimi
    Grandma Koyuki's not getting
    any younger, either.
[15:14] Akira
    Guinea pigs die after five or six years.
[15:17] Reimi
    Huh?
[15:17] Reimi
    Why would you say that, Akira?
[15:20] Akira
    You brought up her age, Reimi!
[15:22] Reimi
    Learn to have some sympathy!
[15:23] Akira
    I was trying to teach you something!
[15:24] Nadeshiko
    Play nice!
[15:27] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan!
[15:30] Reimi
    Got you!
[15:39] Shizuru
    I'm home.
[15:42] Shizuru
    They say these phenomena were caused
    by the 7G network going haywire.
[15:48] Shizuru
    That said, no one knows how
    to change it all back.
[15:51] Shizuru
    Or, well, I feel like no one really wants to.
[15:57] Shizuru's Mother
    Welcome home.
[15:58] Shizuru
    I'm back.
[15:59] Shizuru's Mother
    I made dinner.
[16:01] Shizuru's Mother
    I wish it wasn't just the
    usual bitter melon and rice.
[16:03] Shizuru's Mother
    Make sure you heat it up first.
[16:05] Shizuru
    Yeah, thanks.
[16:06] Shizuru
    7G is to thank, or maybe to blame,
    for the fact that we barely get electricity.
[16:12] Shizuru
    We don't get TV or internet,
    but we can use PHS over short distances.
[16:17] Shizuru
    The fridge works, but the breaker trips
    with both the fridge and microwave running.
[16:22] Shizuru
    We can't use energy as much
    as we want, like we used to.
[16:26] Shizuru
    Heck, I'm not even sure if this is electricity.
[16:29] Shizuru
    It's more like an energy similar to
    electricity that runs along the rails.
[16:37] (Flashback) Yoka
    I see now.
[16:38] (Flashback) Yoka
    So that's what you're like, Shizuru.
[16:41] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Huh?
[16:42] (Flashback) Shizuru
    What's that supposed to mean?
[16:44] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I could say the same about you, Yoka!
[16:46] (Flashback) Yoka
    That's right.
[16:48] (Flashback) Yoka
    This is how I am.
[16:51] (Flashback) Yoka
    Sorry!
[16:53] (Flashback) Shizuru
    What are you sorry about?!
[16:54] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I don't care about you anymore, Yoka!
[16:59] Shizuru
    What did she mean, that's what I'm like?
[17:02] Shizuru
    That was the last time I saw Yoka.
[17:05] Shizuru
    We haven't met since,
[17:06] Shizuru
    and I've had no luck searching for her.
[17:09] Shizuru
    No wonder I couldn't find her.
    She's in Ikebukuro!
[17:12] Shizuru
    I was sure she had to be near Agano.
[17:15] Shizuru
    I spent two whole years looking for her!
[17:17] Shizuru
    Sheesh!
[17:19] Shizuru
    Pochi-san.
[17:21] Shizuru
    Pochi-san, I wonder why you didn't turn human.
[17:25] Shizuru
    All the human grown-ups turn into animals,
[17:28] Shizuru
    so it wouldn't be weird if you turned human.
[17:31] Shizuru
    It all makes sense.
[17:32] Shizuru
    If Yoka was nearby,
    you would have let me know.
[17:36] Shizuru
    Since she's your owner.
[17:38] Shizuru
    How come I never noticed?
[17:43] Shizuru
    Good evening.
[17:45] Group
    Hello there.
[17:51] Shizuru
    What's the matter, Zenjiro-san?
[17:53] Shizuru
    It's dangerous to be on the tracks.
[17:55] Shizuru
    Let's head back.
[17:56] Zenjiro
    C-Cap...
[17:59] Shizuru
    Cap?
[18:04] Shizuru
    What?
[18:06] Shizuru
    Is this string from a cap?
[18:08] Shizuru
    Pochi-san, do you recognize this?
[18:12] Shizuru
    What? You do?
[18:14] Shizuru
    Hey!
[18:15] Shizuru
    Zenjiro-san, that's dangerous!
[18:28] Shizuru
    Is there something inside?
[18:47] Shizuru
    Yeah, yeah.
[18:47] Shizuru
    Here's your choo-choo cap.
[18:50] Zenjiro
    That damn rotten dunghead Pontaro!
[18:52] Zenjiro
    How many times did I tell him
    to give up on 7G?
[18:55] Zenjiro
    There's no way anyone
    would adopt that standard!
[18:56] Shizuru
    What?!
[18:57] Zenjiro
    Ignoring the many researchers who warned
    that it threatened the laws of physics!
[19:02] Zenjiro
    Blindly accepting only the unreliable data
    from those who sought to profit!
[19:05] Zenjiro
    Instead of being happy with the worst,
    why'd you have to insist on the double worst?
[19:08] Zenjiro
    You no-good piece of living waste!
[19:09] Zenjiro
    Not only did you get in my way,
[19:11] Zenjiro
    you even wibble-wobbled me
    with wibble-wobble surgery!
[19:13] Zenjiro
    You incorrigible, sly scoundrel!
[19:16] Zenjiro
    But just you wait!
[19:17] Zenjiro
    I'll make sure I put an end to 7G!
[19:19] Zenjiro
    I won't let you take over Ikebukuro!
[19:21] Shizuru
    Wait, did you say "Ikebukuro"?
[19:23] Zenjiro
    I sure did.
[19:24] Zenjiro
    I can't leave Ikebukuro alone like this!
[19:25] Zenjiro
    I must stop him immediately!
[19:27] Zenjiro
    It looks like I, Taira Zenjiro, am left with
    no choice but to ride this 2000 series—
[19:30] Zenjiro
    Well, no, that's...
[19:33] Zenjiro
    You're Chikura Shizuru, aren't you?
[19:35] Zenjiro
    I once saw you get stuck in a ditch...
[19:37] Shizuru
    Never mind that!
[19:38] Shizuru
    More importantly, how do you
    ride this 2000 whatever?
[19:40] Shizuru
    Can you drive this thing, Zenjiro-san?
[19:43] Zenjiro
    Can I drive this thing?
[19:45] Zenjiro
    Of course—
[19:49] Shizuru
    What?!
[19:50] Shizuru
    Wait, why?!
[19:51] Shizuru
    Let's try this again!
[19:53] Shizuru
    Why?!
[19:54] Shizuru
    One more time!
[19:56] Shizuru
    Ah, jeez!
[20:00] Shizuru
    What the heck?
[20:02] Shizuru
    The cap doesn't turn you back? Really?
[20:05] Shizuru
    Hey, you.
[20:07] Shizuru's Mother
    I see.
[20:09] Shizuru's Mother
    Do your best to stay safe out there.
[20:10] Shizuru
    Thanks, Mom.
[20:13] Shizuru
    I'll be going.
[20:14] Shizuru's Mother
    If you happen to meet an arrogant wolverine,
[20:16] Shizuru's Mother
    tell him to snap out of it
    and come back home.
[20:20] Shizuru
    Okay.
[20:21] Shizuru
    I'll make sure I tell Dad.
[20:23] Iguchi
    Hoshi Nadeshiko.
[20:24] Nadeshiko
    Here.
[20:25] Iguchi

[20:26] Reimi
    Here.
[20:26] Iguchi
    Shinonome Akira.
[20:28] Akira
    Here.
[20:28] Iguchi
    Nakatomi Yoka... is taking an absence.
[20:31] Iguchi
    Chikura Shizuru.
[20:32] Iguchi
    Shizuru's out again?
[20:35] Iguchi
    None of you know what Shizuru's up to?
[20:37] Nadeshiko
    When I ran into her two nights ago,
    she said she solved the mystery of the cap.
[20:41] Nadeshiko
    She was running with Pochi-san
    by Agano-juku-mae.
[20:44] Akira
    What mystery?
[20:45] Akira
    Wait, what's she ditching class to do?
[20:47] Reimi
    Delinquency?
[20:48] Reimi
    Is Shizuru-chan turning into a delinquent?
[20:50] Iguchi
    There's really no point to
    delinquent conduct out here,
[20:52] Iguchi
    so there's no need to worry about that.
[20:57] Shizuru
    Iguchi-sensei, thank you
    for everything you've done.
[20:59] Shizuru
    I'm dropping out of school!

[21:03] Shizuru
    Check, check, check.
[21:04] Shizuru
    Check, check, check, check.
[21:06] Zenjiro
    Check!
[21:07] Zenjiro
    I can't go with you, because reasons,
    but it looks like you'll be just fine.
[21:10] Zenjiro
    Go out there and see the world
    ravaged by 7G with your own eyes!
[21:13] Zenjiro
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
[21:15] Zenjiro
    And remember, the most important
    thing for survival is—
[21:18] Shizuru
    Ah, right in the middle of talking again!
[21:21] Shizuru
    Well, it's all good.
[21:22] Shizuru
    I got the gist of it.
[21:23] Reimi
    Not good!
[21:24] Nadeshiko
    It's not good!
[21:24] Akira
    Not good at all!
[21:25] Shizuru
    Whoa, you scared me!
[21:26] Nadeshiko
    Don't give me that, Shizuru-chan!
[21:28] Reimi
    You're dropping out of school?
[21:30] Shizuru
    Yeah.
[21:31] Shizuru
    Take care of everyone.
[21:32] Shizuru
    I'll be going now.
[21:33] Akira
    Huh? Where?
[21:35] Shizuru
    Ikebukuro.
[21:37] Reimi
    Wait, for real?
[21:38] Nadeshiko
    Why all of a sudden?
[21:39] Shizuru
    It's not sudden at all.
[21:41] Shizuru
    I took the time to prepare.
[21:46] Akira
    Whoa! It's leaving!
[21:48] Reimi
    Hold on. I'll go too.
[21:49] Reimi
    I'll go with you!
[21:50] Group
    What?!
[21:51] Nadeshiko
    Wait!
[21:52] Akira

    Hey, when are we arriving at Ikebukuro?
[02:47] Reimi
    Like, tomorrow?
[02:48] Akira
    It's somewhere not even the
    Black Leopard caravan can go.
[02:50] Akira
    Tomorrow's not happening.
[02:52] Reimi
    What?
[02:52] Reimi
    But it only took a little
    over an hour before.
[02:55] Reimi
    I know everything got all stretched out,
[02:57] Reimi
    but it can't be that bad now, right?
[02:59] Akira
    You're way too optimistic.
[03:00] Akira
    It's completely possible that
    if we don't take this seriously,
[03:03] Akira
    we could succumb to the elements
    before ever reaching Ikebukuro.
[03:05] Reimi
    Now, hold on.
[03:06] Reimi
    Sometimes, you find that
    once you actually get going,
[03:09] Reimi
    it ends up taking barely any time at all.
[03:11] Reimi
    Maybe not one day, but like, three?
[03:13] Akira
    Not a chance.
[03:14] Akira
    It'll take a whole month, at least.
[03:16] Akira
    Maybe more!
[03:17] Reimi
    Two weeks!
[03:18] Akira
    Three months!
[03:19] Reimi
    I know.
[03:20] Reimi
    I'm sure Shizuru-chan's
    thought about all this.
[03:22] Reimi
    Let's ask.
[03:23] Group
    Hey, how long's it gonna take?
[03:24] Shizuru
    Don't distract me! It's dangerous!
[03:26] Nadeshiko
    I mean, Shizuru-chan only
    just learned how to drive.
[03:30] Nadeshiko
    That must be it.
[03:35] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan, aren't we going a little fast?
[03:41] Nadeshiko
    I really think this is too fast.
[03:43] Nadeshiko
    Can't we go slower?
[03:45] Shizuru
    I'm trying.
[03:46] Nadeshiko
    What?
[03:47] Shizuru
    I'm trying, but it's not slowing down.
[03:49] Group
    What?!
[03:52] Reimi
    Curve!
[03:53] Akira

[03:55] Akira
    Curve again!

[04:02] Nadeshiko
    Sharp curve!
[04:04] Group
    Curve!
[04:16] Akira
    I thought I was gonna die.
[04:18] Akira
    Now I know what they mean by "memento mori."
[04:20] Nadeshiko
    Are we going to be okay, Shizuru-chan?
[04:22] Shizuru
    I think so.
[04:24] Shizuru
    This looked a lot easier when
    Zenjiro-san was teaching me.
[04:29] Nadeshiko
    Zenjiro-san?
[04:30] Shizuru
    He can go back to normal.
[04:31] Shizuru
    But only for five minutes a day.
[04:33] Shizuru
    So I had him teach me.
[04:34] Reimi
    What?
[04:35] Akira
    That's impossible.
[04:36] Shizuru
    I swear, I swear.
[04:37] Shizuru
    He turned into a hottie, too.
[04:38] Group
    A hottie?!
[04:39] Nadeshiko
    Lying is bad, Shizuru-chan.
[04:41] Shizuru
    I swear it's the truth! Seriously!
[04:42] Shizuru
    How else could I have learned
    to drive a train?
[04:45] Shizuru
    You know Zenjiro-san used to be
    an elite railway worker, right?
[04:48] Akira
    I thought that was just a rumor.
[04:50] Reimi
    So it was true?
[04:51] Nadeshiko
    What do you mean, "only for five minutes?"
[04:53] Shizuru
    You know how train conductors wear a cap?
[04:55] Shizuru
    He turned back when I put it on him.
[04:57] Nadeshiko
    Listen to me, Shizuru-chan.
[04:58] Nadeshiko
    Lying really is a bad thing to do.
[05:00] Shizuru
    I swear, I swear!
[05:02] Shizuru
    Swear it on my life!
[05:03] Shizuru
    That's how I learned to drive this thing!
[05:05] Shizuru
    Trust me!
[05:06] Reimi
    Actually, is this really the
    right way to Ikebukuro?
[05:09] Reimi
    We're not going the wrong way, are we?
[05:11] Akira
    Huh?
[05:12] Shizuru
    Chichibu's back there, right?
[05:14] Shizuru
    That means Ikebukuro's this way.
[05:16] Reimi
    Oh, that makes sense.
[05:18] Akira
    I see.
[05:19] Reimi
    You know, they have model scouts
    and butlers in Ikebukuro.
[05:23] Reimi
    As well as detectives and murderers.
[05:25] Reimi
    If you don't pay attention, you'll be
    stabbed, run over, and scammed!
[05:29] Reimi
    Spine-tingling, yet stylish!
[05:31] Akira
    That's a very distorted view there.
[05:33] Reimi
    Make sure you don't get ripped off, either.
[05:35] Akira
    What?
[05:35] Akira
    Reimi, you've got money?
[05:36] Reimi
    Sure do!
[05:37] Reimi
    I've been saving up.
[05:39] Reimi
    Ah!
[05:39] Shizuru
    Nice! How much?
[05:41] Reimi
    My piggy bank!
[05:42] Shizuru
    Like 20,000 yen?
[05:43] Reimi
    Wait, my piggy bank!
[05:45] Nadeshiko
    What's wrong, Reimi-chan?
[05:46] Reimi
    My piggy bank's back home...
[05:47] Akira
    Ah, she left it at home.
[05:49] Reimi
    All I've got is 250 yen.
[05:50] Akira
    That's rough!
[05:51] Reimi
    What about you?
[05:52] Reimi
    How much do you have, Akira?
[05:54] Akira
    You won't get any personal
    information out of me.
[05:56] Reimi
    Let me borrow some money!
[05:58] Akira
    I'm not loaning any money.
[05:59] Reimi
    So cheap!
[06:00] Shizuru
    I've got plenty of cash,
    so I'll let you borrow some.
[06:03] Reimi
    For real?
[06:04] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan, my savior!
[06:05] Reimi
    How much are we talking?
[06:06] Shizuru
    I've got a little over 3,000 yen,
    so 1,000 yen or so.
[06:09] Group
    That's nothing!
[06:09] Shizuru
    No way! It's a lot!
[06:11] Reimi
    What do they say in times like these?
[06:12] Reimi
    "If you don't have bread,
    let them eat snacks?"
[06:14] Nadeshiko
    I think that's slightly off.
[06:16] Akira
    "You have to crack a few eggs
    to make an omelet."
[06:18] Reimi
    That's it. Something like that.
[06:19] Akira
    No, that's the answer.
[06:20] Reimi
    1,250 yen, huh?
[06:22] Reimi
    What should I buy with this?
[06:23] Nadeshiko
    I think food would come first.
[06:25] Reimi
    Oh, I want some boba tea, I think it was?
[06:27] Reimi
    Also some shrshuruli, and French toast...
[06:30] Nadeshiko
    I meant something more normal.
[06:32] Nadeshiko
    Like canned goods, or hardtack.
[06:34] Reimi
    Ugh, that's boring.
[06:35] Reimi
    Dream a little bigger, Nadeko-chan.
[06:37] Nadeshiko
    Well, I mean, we didn't
    bring anything with us.
[06:39] Reimi
    What?
[06:40] Nadeshiko
    We came here straight after school.
[06:42] Reimi
    You're right.
[06:44] Reimi
    We don't have anything to eat.
[06:46] Shizuru
    I brought some food with me.
[06:47] Reimi
    Really? Awesome!
[06:48] Nadeshiko
    Why?
[06:49] Shizuru
    Even I know to prep a little.
[06:51] Akira
    Can we see?
[06:52] Shizuru
    Yeah, go ahead.
[06:53] Akira
    Packing for survival means the
    bare necessities, as well as...
[06:57] Akira
    What's this?
[06:58] Akira
    A meditation paddle?
[06:59] Reimi
    Don't you know?
[07:00] Reimi
    It's for measuring pasta.
[07:02] Akira
    So where's the pasta?
[07:03] Akira
    That's Su-chan from NeriAli!
[07:05] Reimi
    You're right!
[07:06] Reimi
    Why do you have this, Shizuru-chan?
[07:08] Shizuru
    Oh, I found it at my house.
[07:09] Akira
    Let me see, Nadeko-chan.
[07:10] Reimi
    Can I have it? Pretty please?
[07:11] Shizuru
    Sure, I don't mi—
[07:12] Akira
    I do.
[07:12] Reimi
    She gave it to me.
[07:13] Nadeshiko
    Stop fighting! Play nice!

[07:15] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan, this was
    the only food in there.
[07:19] Shizuru
    Huh?
[07:20] Shizuru
    I'm sure I brought more than that.
[07:22] Nadeshiko
    As well as those.
[07:23] Shizuru
    Oh, the bitter melon?
[07:25] Shizuru
    I know it's an Agano specialty,
[07:26] Shizuru
    but I'm not a big fan.
[07:30] Shizuru
    What's wrong with me?!
[07:32] Shizuru
    I got too excited!
[07:32] Shizuru
    Or, well, I got a little confused.
[07:34] Akira
    Ah, you get like that sometimes.
[07:36] Akira
    I guess you could call it tunnel vision.
[07:38] Reimi
    It couldn't have been worse timing, really.
[07:40] Nadeshiko
    Maybe it would've helped if you'd made a list.
[07:42] Nadeshiko
    Um...
[07:44] Nadeshiko
    This is everything that we have with us.
[07:48] Shizuru
    You know the real problem?
[07:50] Group
    The real problem?
[07:51] Shizuru
    Undies.
[07:53] Reimi
    Really?
[07:54] Akira
    Undies...
[07:55] Nadeshiko
    Girls shouldn't be saying... that!
[07:57] Shizuru
    Underwear, then.
[07:58] Nadeshiko
    That's no better!
[07:59] Akira
    It's true that we don't know
    how long it'll be to Ikebukuro.
[08:03] Reimi
    We're stuck in these clothes?
[08:04] Akira
    It's said that Isabella, Queen of Castile,
    made an oath to pray for victory,
[08:07] Akira
    and didn't change her undies
    for nine months.
[08:10] Shizuru
    You think we'll find Yoka
    if I don't change mine?
[08:13] Nadeshiko
    Calm down, Shizuru-chan!
[08:14] Shizuru
    Huh? Oh.
[08:16] Akira
    We can buy some when
    we get to Higashi-Agano.
[08:18] Nadeshiko
    We'll need to stock up on food, as well.
[08:20] Nadeshiko
    Something that'll keep.
[08:22] Reimi
    I'm hungry.
[08:23] Reimi
    Ow!
[08:23] Akira
    Do you have a death wish?
[08:24] Akira
    The fat, hungry ones always die first
    in survival horror movies.
[08:28] Reimi
    I'm not fat!
[08:28] Nadeshiko
    Hold on a little bit.
[08:30] Nadeshiko
    Just for now.
[08:31] Reimi
    Hold on, huh?
[08:32] Reimi
    I'm bad at that...
[08:34] Reimi
    I bet you were gonna say,
    "Reimi sucks at doing that."
[08:37] Akira
    Aw, man. You beat me to it.
[08:39] Akira
    Now I don't wanna say it.
[08:40] Reimi
    Seriously?
[08:41] Nadeshiko
    Settle down.
[08:50] Reimi
    Are we at Ikebukuro yet?
[08:52] Akira
    Are you going to keep asking that?
[08:54] Reimi
    What's the problem?
[08:54] Reimi
    I'm just curious.
[08:56] Akira
    Are you stupid or something?
[08:59] Reimi
    That superior attitude
    of yours is a real problem.
[09:02] Reimi
    Akira the killer sniveler!
[09:04] Akira
    I may have been a crybaby,
    but that was over ten years ago!
[09:07] Reimi
    Hmph!
[09:08] Akira
    Flunking monkey Reimi!
[09:09] Reimi
    I only got a zero that one time!
[09:11] Reimi
    And it was a quiz!
[09:12] Nadeshiko
    Cut it out, both of you!
[09:14] Akira
    If you hate me so much,
    you should have just stayed in Agano!
[09:16] Reimi
    I didn't say I hate you!
[09:18] Reimi
    Don't put words in my mouth!
[09:18] Nadeshiko
    Akira-chan. Reimi-chan.
[09:19] Reimi
    You made the choice to ride this train, too!
[09:21] Akira
    If you and Nadeko-chan hadn't hopped on,
    I wouldn't have come!
[09:24] Nadeshiko
    We just got caught up in
    the moment back then.
[09:27] Nadeshiko
    We all did.
[09:28] Shizuru
    You didn't have to come, you know.
[09:33] Shizuru
    I was planning to go alone from the start.
[09:38] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan, you're always so...
[09:44] Nadeshiko
    The bitter melon...
[09:46] Reimi
    Is it just me, or is it growing
    even faster than usual?
[09:48] Akira
    Also, check out this fog.
[09:51] Reimi
    Where are we?
[09:52] Akira
    Don't tell me we passed Higashi-Agano.
[10:05] Shizuru
    Reimi, you have good eyesight, right?
[10:07] Shizuru
    Do you see something out there?
[10:09] Reimi
    What, are you trying to scare me?
[10:10] Nadeshiko
    Out there?
[10:12] Reimi
    I don't really see anything...
[10:15] Reimi
    Huh?
[10:16] Reimi
    What is that?
[10:17] Akira
    What?!
[10:18] Reimi
    Something's coming this way.
[10:19] Nadeshiko
    What do you mean, "something"?
[10:20] Reimi
    That's...
[10:21] Akira
    It's Komassie!
[10:22] Group
    Komassie?
[10:23] Akira
    The plesiosaur said to have been living
    in the Koma River to this very day!
[10:31] Shizuru
    Ah.
[10:32] Shizuru
    It's Komassie.
[10:36] Shizuru
    It's Komassie...
[10:48] Swan Hermit
    Is that a train?
[10:53] Swan Hermit
    Who are you folks?
[10:55] Akira
    Watch out!
[10:56] Akira
    That's gotta be a murderer, here to kill us!
[10:58] Swan Hermit
    Indeed!
[10:59] Swan Hermit
    They call me the fiercest serial killer
    across all of the Koma River...
[11:03] Swan Hermit
    Hey! That's a little rude!
[11:08] Shizuru
    Um, who are you?
[11:10] Swan Hermit
    My name is of little importance!
[11:15] Swan Hermit
    Or, well, um... I mean...
[11:18] Swan Hermit
    I've been traveling up the Koma River,
    jotting down notes and doing research.
[11:22] Swan Hermit
    I haven't seen anyone in ages,
    so you took me by surprise.
[11:26] Swan Hermit
    Anyway, what are you doing here?
[11:28] Shizuru
    Um, we're trying to get to Ikebukuro.
[11:31] Swan Hermit
    Huh, Ikebukuro?
[11:32] Swan Hermit
    Now that's something.
[11:33] Swan Hermit
    I'm from Ikebukuro myself.
[11:35] Swan Hermit
    I admire your courage—
[11:36] Shizuru
    Seriously?!
[11:37] Shizuru
    Ikebukuro? That's amazing!
[11:39] Swan Hermit
    Naw, it's not a big deal.
[11:41] Shizuru
    I've never met anyone from Ikebukuro before!
[11:44] Swan Hermit
    Oh, really?
[11:45] Reimi
    Do you know Seibu? Tobu?
    Naka-Ikebukuro Park?
[11:48] Reimi
    The Ikebus? Animate?
[11:49] Akira
    Junkudo? Sanseido?
[11:51] Reimi
    Also, boba tea!
[11:52] Reimi
    What's the hottest café right now?
[11:54] Swan Hermit
    Dunno.
[11:55] Reimi
    "Dunno"?!
[11:56] Akira
    So he has no idea.
[11:58] Swan Hermit
    Hold it!
[11:59] Swan Hermit
    There's one thing I can
    say for sure, probably.
[12:02] Shizuru
    What is it?
[12:04] Swan Hermit
    After the 7G incident,
[12:06] Swan Hermit
    the whole world disappeared, other than
    everything along the Seibu Ikebukuro line.
[12:10] Shizuru
    What?!
[12:11] Swan Hermit
    Or so I suppose, maybe,
    as a matter of presumption.
[12:14] Shizuru
    Suppose, maybe, presumably?
[12:16] Shizuru
    Which is it, then?!
[12:17] Swan Hermit
    The fungi to the east tower high overhead,
[12:20] Swan Hermit
    brazenly conspiring to subjugate.
[12:22] Swan Hermit
    Further yet to the east,
[12:24] Swan Hermit
    those in harmony with goats, untrue to their
    name, charge recklessly as wild boars!
[12:28] Reimi
    So what does that mean?
[12:29] Reimi
    What's he saying?
[12:30] Akira
    I know what this is.
[12:31] Akira
    A poor imitation of a monologue
    from absurdist theater.
[12:33] Nadeshiko
    Oh, I see.
[12:34] Nadeshiko
    Is that why it feels so exaggerated?
[12:36] Shizuru
    We should get going.
[12:37] Swan Hermit
    Huh?
[12:38] Swan Hermit
    Hey, wait, wait! Please!
[12:40] Swan Hermit
    My point is, I wouldn't head
    toward Ikebukuro if I were you!
[12:44] Shizuru
    Why not?
[12:45] Swan Hermit
    It's awfully, terribly, unbelievably bad
    out there, I hear, supposedly!
[12:49] Shizuru
    Or so you presume.
[12:51] Swan Hermit
    Yep.
[12:52] Shizuru
    Okay, off we go.
[12:53] Swan Hermit
    Hey, wait!
[12:55] Swan Hermit
    Since you came all this way,
    give me something!
[12:57] Swan Hermit
    Pretty please!
[13:00] Swan Hermit
    I'll give you something good! Real good!
[13:02] Swan Hermit
    Let's trade!
[13:03] Shizuru
    Something good?
[13:04] Swan Hermit
    I drew this map myself.
[13:06] Swan Hermit
    It'll totally be helpful.
[13:07] Swan Hermit
    I super recommend it.
[13:08] Shizuru
    Ah, thanks.
[13:10] Swan Hermit
    Also, a word of advice.
[13:11] Swan Hermit
    Don't believe anything you hear.
[13:13] Shizuru
    Huh?
[13:13] Swan Hermit
    Believe only the things
    you've confirmed yourself.
[13:16] Swan Hermit
    Oh, that doesn't apply to what I say.
[13:18] Shizuru
    Myself...
[13:21] Akira
    This guy's talking the very
    definition of nonsense.
[13:24] Swan Hermit
    Ow, that stings!
[13:27] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan.
[13:28] Nadeshiko
    Why don't you give him this?
[13:29] Nadeshiko
    I think it's your dad's.
[13:30] Nadeshiko
    It's not like we need it.
[13:32] Swan Hermit
    M-My word!
[13:33] Swan Hermit
    That great modern convenience,
    a heated tobacco device!
[13:36] Swan Hermit
    Well, the cartridge!
[13:37] Shizuru
    If you're happy with that, it's yours.
[13:39] Swan Hermit
    Thank you! Merci! Grazie! Khop khun kha!
[13:42] Shizuru
    You're welcome.
[13:43] Shizuru
    Take care, gramps.
[13:45] Swan Hermit
    Leave it to me!
[13:46] Swan Hermit
    I'll go up the Koma River, studying and
    exploring along the Seibu Ikebukuro line,
[13:50] Swan Hermit
    solving all the mysteries...
[13:52] Swan Hermit
    Wait, hold on.
[13:53] Swan Hermit
    Don't call me "gramps"!
[13:55] Swan Hermit
    I'm still young!
[13:57] Reimi
    He sure was a weirdo.
[13:59] Nadeshiko
    It's the first time in a while we've
    met a human grown-up, though.
[14:02] Nadeshiko
    Other than Neko-san and his crew.
[14:04] Akira
    Oh, that's true.
[14:05] Shizuru
    He kinda looked like he should
    be selling talismans.
[14:08] Reimi
    Oh, I can see it.
[14:10] Reimi
    The shady and totally bogus ones.
[14:11] Shizuru
    That's the first time I've met someone
    weirder than Zenjiro-san.
[14:14] Akira
    That reminds me.
[14:16] Akira
    Why didn't Zenjiro-san come with us?
[14:18] Reimi
    Ew. I don't want him here.
[14:20] Reimi
    Where would he sleep?
[14:21] Akira
    You're being a little too superficial here.
[14:23] Akira
    If he was here, we could ask him
    all sorts of things.
[14:26] Shizuru
    Zenjiro-san said he didn't
    want to leave Agano.
[14:28] Shizuru
    He couldn't leave.
[14:29] Reimi
    Why not?
[14:31] Shizuru
    Whenever he tries to leave Agano,
    he gets really nasty headaches and vertigo.
[14:35] Shizuru
    He said it's because of the
    wibble-wobble surgery.
[14:38] Akira
    What if it's psychological suggestion?
[14:39] Nadeshiko
    Suggestion?
[14:41] Nadeshiko
    Like brainwashing or hypnosis?
[14:43] Akira
    Yeah.
[14:43] Akira
    What if that wibble-wobble state of his
    is just a form of suggestion,
[14:47] Akira
    and there's no actual basis to any of it?
[14:49] Shizuru
    He does have a scar on his forehead, though.
[14:52] Akira
    That's true.
[14:54] Reimi
    Well, anyway, I'm glad Zenjiro-san's not here.
[14:57] Nadeshiko
    Oh, Reimi-chan.
[14:59] Shizuru
    Another person would mean
    less food for us, too.
[15:02] Nadeshiko
    On that note, Shizuru-chan, 
    why did you decide to go to Ikebukuro?
[15:07] Shizuru
    When you come right
    out and ask like that...
[15:10] Nadeshiko
    It was for Yoka-chan, right?
[15:13] Reimi
    Just because you couldn't find her
    anywhere near Agano?
[15:15] Akira
    Reimi, do you have to say it like that?
[15:17] Reimi
    What? It's true.
[15:19] Reimi
    Isn't it, Shizuru-chan?
[15:20] Shizuru
    Well, yeah.
[15:22] Nadeshiko
    Because you saw that photo in the newspaper?
[15:24] Shizuru
    Yeah, something like that.
[15:27] Akira
    How are you going to find her?
[15:29] Akira
    Doesn't seem likely.
[15:30] Reimi
    You never know.
[15:31] Reimi
    Maybe as soon as we reach Ikebukuro,
[15:33] Reimi
    Yoka-chan will come up to us
    and go, "Long time no see!"
[15:36] Akira
    Yeah, totally.
[15:37] Akira
    Wouldn't that be nice.
[15:39] Nadeshiko
    You know, Shizuru-chan.
[15:41] Nadeshiko
    If you'd left Agano without
    saying anything to us,
[15:45] Nadeshiko
    you could have ended up making us sad,
    just like when Yoka-chan disappeared on you.
[15:51] Shizuru
    Oh, huh.
[15:53] Shizuru
    I didn't think about that.
[15:55] Shizuru
    Sorry.
[15:57] Nadeshiko
    Let's have you apologize for one more thing.
[15:59] Shizuru
    Huh?
[16:00] Nadeshiko
    For suggesting we shouldn't have come along.
[16:06] Shizuru
    Sorry.
[16:08] Nadeshiko
    Yoka-chan is our friend too, you know.
[16:13] Shizuru
    Yeah.
[16:15] Reimi
    C'mon, isn't that enough?
[16:17] Shizuru
    No, I really am sorry.
[16:18] Shizuru
    I wasn't thinking about your feelings.
[16:20] Nadeshiko
    As long as you understand now.
[16:22] Reimi
    Yep, yep!
[16:23] Reimi
    Now that that's settled,
    let's head back to Agano.
[16:25] Shizuru
    Huh?!
[16:26] Akira
    Are you stupid?
[16:27] Nadeshiko
    What are you saying, Reimi-chan?
[16:29] Reimi
    Huh? We need to prepare properly.
[16:31] Reimi
    Clothes, food, blankets, camping gear.
[16:34] Reimi
    Oh, wouldn't some scented candles be great?
[16:37] Akira
    Oh.
[16:38] Nadeshiko
    They would.
[16:39] Reimi
    Not getting enough sleep causes stress.
[16:40] Shizuru
    Wait, hold on.
[16:42] Shizuru
    Go back after coming this far?
[16:43] Shizuru
    Isn't that a waste?
[16:44] Nadeshiko
    I can't help but worry about
    our lack of supplies, though.
[16:48] Akira
    Wait, I never agreed
    to this trip to begin with.
[16:52] Reimi
    When we go back to Agano,
    you can stay behind by yourself, then.
[16:55] Akira
    I don't want to be all by myself!
[17:07] Zenjiro
    Koyuki-san, sorry to make you do all this.
[17:10] Akira
    In that case, I want to bring 
    Prince Takaoka's Travels.
[17:14] Reimi
    What's that?
[17:14] Akira
    A novel. You wouldn't have heard of it.
[17:16] Reimi
    Oh, yeah?
[17:17] Reimi
    Then I'm bringing jalapeño chips,
    which I know you can't eat.
[17:21] Reimi
    They're so good.
[17:22] Nadeshiko
    We'll need to submit absence letters, too.
[17:25] Nadeshiko
    Or should it be a longer leave of absence?
[17:28] Shizuru
    All right! I'm gonna start her up!
[17:43] Reimi
    What's going on?
[17:44] Reimi
    It wasn't like this before.
[17:47] Akira
    The water level's risen.
[17:49] Akira
    But why?
[17:49] Shizuru
    The map!
[17:50] Shizuru
    The one from that shady hermit!
[17:59] Reimi
    What's that sound?
[18:04] Akira
    Ah, Morse.
[18:05] Akira
    This is Morse code.
[18:07] Shizuru
    Ah!
[18:07] Shizuru
    I forgot I asked Grandma Koyuki!
[18:09] Nadeshiko
    To send us Morse code?
[18:10] Shizuru
    No, no.
[18:12] Shizuru
    Zenjiro-san.
[18:13] Zenjiro
    They're not responding!
[18:14] Zenjiro
    We promised to contact each other
    at 5:00 p.m. every day!
[18:17] Zenjiro
    Agano here! Please respond!
[18:22] Shizuru
    Huh? What?
[18:24] Shizuru
    Dot dash dash?
SIGN    Japanese Morse Code
[18:25] Shizuru
    A little slower...
[18:27] Shizuru
    What was "A" again?
[18:33] Reimi
    So fast!
[18:34] Reimi
    Is that right?
[18:35] Reimi
    You're not just making it up?
[18:36] Akira
    Shut up.
[18:40] Zenjiro
    "Water level rising"?
[18:41] Zenjiro
    Do they mean the Koma River?
[18:43] Akira
    "Motor flooding dangerous.
    Flee to higher ground."
[18:47] Akira
    So he says.
[18:47] Shizuru
    What?!
[18:49] Shizuru
    Wait, no, which way do we go?
[18:51] Shizuru
    We're in trouble!
[18:52] Akira
    Hold it.
[18:53] Akira
    Spoken verbiage doesn't work here.
[18:54] Akira

[19:03] Akira
    "Choo"?
[19:05] Shizuru
    Our five minutes are up!
[19:06] Nadeshiko
    What do we do, Shizuru-chan?
[19:26] Shizuru
    Forward!
[19:32] Akira
    It's coming!
[19:33] Akira
    It's right behind us!
[19:34] Nadeshiko
    Calm down, calm down!
[19:44] Reimi
    Faster!
[19:45] Reimi
    Go faster!
[19:46] Shizuru
    I'm trying!
[19:56] Shizuru
    Forward!
[19:57] Shizuru
    Let's go!
[19:58] Shizuru
    Move!
[20:20] Shizuru
    We can't go back.
[20:23] Reimi
    But, well, it's for the best.
[20:25] Akira
    How so?
[20:26] Reimi
    Now we have to keep going.
[20:28] Nadeshiko
    Yeah.
[20:29] Akira
    What about those scented candles?
[20:32] Reimi
    They can wait until we get to Ikebukuro.
[20:34] Akira
    I thought you only had one thousand yen.
[20:35] Reimi
    Let me borrow some money.
[20:36] Akira
    No.
[20:37] Akira
    I'm not loaning any money.
[20:38] Reimi
    So stingy!
[20:39] Shizuru
    Hey!
[20:41] Shizuru
    Are we really going to Ikebukuro?
[20:44] Reimi
    Looks like it.
[20:45] Akira
    It's our only option now.
[20:47] Nadeshiko
    What about you?
[20:50] Shizuru
    I'm going.
[20:51] Shizuru
    I'll go and find Yoka!
[21:45] Reimi
    It's Higashi-Agano!
[21:54] Resident 1
    Hey there.
[21:55] Resident 1
    Welcome to Higashi-Agano.
[21:57] Reisdent 2
    We don't get many visitors here.
[21:59] Resident 3
    I'll say.

SIGN    Episode 3       Short, Happy, and Easy
[02:18] Keiko
    Yes, we are.
[02:19] Keiko
    Is this a train?
[02:21] Nadeshiko
    Yes, that's right.
[02:22] Keiko
    It's been so long since I've seen one.
[02:24] Keiko
    Where, pray tell, are you from?
[02:27] Shizuru
    Agano, one stop over.
[02:28] Resident
    Agano?
[02:28] Resident
    Agano, she says.
[02:29] Resident
    Agano...
[02:30] Resident
    Agano, huh?
[02:32] Keiko
    My goodness.
[02:33] Keiko
    That's quite the journey nowadays.
[02:35] Keiko
    I imagine it was harrowing.
[02:37] Shizuru
    Yeah, I guess.
[02:39] Keiko
    Is everyone in Agano faring well?
[02:42] Shizuru
    I suppose you could say that.
[02:44] Keiko
    Please, feel free to cultivate—
    I mean, recuperate here for the time being.
[02:49] Keiko
    Fortunately, Higashi-Agano's
    dwindling population
[02:54] Keiko
    means we have plenty of housing to spare.
[02:55] Reimi
    Whoa, we'd love to!
[02:57] Keiko
    By all means.
[02:57] Resident
    Yes.
[02:58] Resident
    Great idea.
[02:59] Nadeshiko
    I'm afraid we don't have much money.
[03:02] Keiko
    Oh, that won't be a problem.
[03:04] Reimi
    Yay!
[03:05] Nadeshiko
    Thank you very much.
[03:10] Resident
    Good evening.
[03:12] Group
    Good evening.
[03:14] Nadeshiko
    Everyone here is so friendly.
[03:16] Reimi
    It's nothing like Agano.
[03:18] Reimi
    Back home, it's carnivores
    versus herbivores,
[03:19] Reimi
    and they even had to cancel
    the summer festival.
[03:21] Shizuru
    Yeah, over what the
    shrine offerings should be.
[03:25] Shizuru
    I was, like, who cares?
[03:27] Akira
    Should've just gone with the Agano specialties:
    rice, bitter melon, and barleywheat.
[03:32] Keiko
    Bitter melon?
[03:33] Shizuru
    Huh?
[03:34] Shizuru
    Matsuta-san, do you hate bitter melon?
[03:37] Keiko
    Ah, no!
[03:38] Keiko
    I wouldn't go that far.
[03:41] Reimi
    It's totally uncute.
[03:43] Reimi
    Bitter melon just feels a lot more rustic
    than zucchini or bell peppers.
[03:47] Akira
    I think it's good.
[03:48] Reimi
    Typical Akira.
[03:50] Reimi
    Will we really be okay?
[03:52] Reimi
    In a big city like Ikebukuro, that is.
[03:55] Akira
    We have no idea if it's still like that now.
[03:57] Shizuru
    Matsuta-san, have you
    ever been to Ikebukuro?
[04:00] Keiko
    I used to live there,
    but I moved back to Higashi-Agano.
[04:04] Reimi
    I'm so jealous!
[04:05] Reimi
    What was it like?
[04:06] Reimi
    It's more urban than this place, right?
[04:08] Keiko
    Let me think.
[04:09] Keiko
    I believe it was.
[04:10] Shizuru
    You believe?
[04:11] Keiko
    My apologies.
[04:13] Keiko
    It's no longer of any concern to me.
[04:15] Shizuru
    Have you seen this girl before?
[04:18] Shizuru
    Near Ikebukuro.
[04:19] Keiko
    I can't say.
[04:20] Shizuru
    I guess that's only natural.
[04:26] (Flashback) Yoka
    There, I'm done.
[04:28] (Flashback) Yoka
    Do these bangs look okay?
[04:30] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Yeah, yeah.
[04:30] (Flashback) Yoka
    C'mon, look a little closer.
[04:33] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I'm fine with them if you are.
[04:35] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Let's take a photo!
[04:36] (Flashback) Shizuru
    To celebrate my new bangs.
[04:43] Akira
    Shizuru-chan.
[04:45] Reimi
    What are you doing?
[04:46] Reimi
    Hurry up.
[04:48] Reimi
    Huh! Not too shabby!
[04:50] Nadeshiko
    Reimi-chan!
[04:51] Keiko
    Why, yes.
[04:53] Keiko
    In Higashi-Agano, we believe
    in treating our guests with hospitality.
[04:57] Keiko
    I recommend our mist sauna in particular.
[05:00] Keiko
    Well, I say "recommend,"
[05:01] Keiko
    but you simply must.
[05:02] Keiko
    Please make sure you use it.
[05:04] Nadeshiko
    Ah, sure.
[05:06] Keiko
    Till we meet again, then.
[05:10] Nadeshiko
    Do we reek of sweat?
[05:12] Shizuru
    Where is this sauna, anyway?
[05:14] Akira
    There?
[05:15] Reimi
    Huh, looks fancy!
[05:21] Reimi
    Wow! Check out this mist!
[05:23] Shizuru
    Nice! Let's go inside.
[05:25] Reimi
    You could totally detox here.
[05:28] Akira
    I'll pass.
[05:29] Reimi
    Why?
[05:30] Nadeshiko
    Akira-chan, let's take this chance
    to wash and dry our clothes.
[05:33] Akira
    No, thanks.
[05:34] Akira
    Maybe if I was alone, but I'm
    not going in with everyone.
[05:37] Reimi
    I get it.
[05:38] Reimi
    You're too shy to undress in front of us.
[05:40] Nadeshiko
    There's nothing to be ashamed of.
[05:41] Akira
    Anyway, I'm good.
[05:45] Akira
    I wonder...
[05:47] Akira
    Was it really the right move to leave Agano?
[05:50] Akira
    There's no way I'd want to remain
    there alone, though.
[06:10] Keiko
    Pardon my intrusion.
[06:12] Keiko
    I thought you might be hungry
    after the sauna.
[06:15] Akira
    Oh, thank you very much.
[06:21] Akira
    Mushrooms...
[06:22] Keiko
    Do you not like them?
[06:24] Akira
    Huh?
[06:25] Akira
    Oh, no, I'm fine with them.
[06:26] Keiko
    I'm glad to hear it.
[06:28] Keiko
    This mixed rice is delicious.
[06:30] Keiko
    It's made with matsutake.
[06:32] Keiko
    Did you go in the mist sauna?
[06:34] Akira
    Ah, yeah, technically.
[06:37] Akira
    The others did.
[06:38] Keiko
    That's great to hear.
[06:40] Keiko
    Please, rest up plenty for the night.
[06:42] Keiko
    Take it nice and easy.
[06:45] Akira
    Thanks.
[06:54] Shizuru
    What's with all the food, Akira?
[06:56] Nadeshiko
    What's going on?
[06:58] Akira
    Matsuta-san brought this over earlier.
[07:01] Reimi
    They pulled out all the stops!
[07:02] Nadeshiko
    That sauna session made me hungry.
[07:05] Nadeshiko
    Let's dig in.
[07:06] Shizuru
    I want this pork-wrapped enoki!
[07:08] Akira
    Hang on!
[07:09] Shizuru
    What?
[07:10] Akira
    Don't you think it's weird?
[07:11] Shizuru
    What's weird?
[07:12] Akira
    The people here!
[07:12] Reimi
    Huh? You think?
[07:14] Reimi
    I think they're nice.
[07:15] Reimi
    Mushrooms on their heads aside.
[07:16] Akira
    Yeah!
[07:17] Akira
    What's the deal with those?!
[07:18] Reimi
    Wanna ask?
[07:19] Nadeshiko
    You shouldn't do that.
[07:21] Reimi
    Huh? Why not?
[07:21] Shizuru
    Oh, I know.
[07:22] Shizuru
    It's like asking someone
    if they're wearing a wig.
[07:25] Shizuru
    Etiquette. Manners.
[07:27] Reimi
    Oh, is that why?
[07:28] Akira
    Not the point!
[07:29] Reimi
    What's the big deal if they have mushrooms?
[07:31] Reimi
    Everyone in Agano's an animal, you know.
[07:33] Shizuru
    The folks here aren't obsessed with meat.
[07:35] Shizuru
    They're friendly.
[07:36] Shizuru
    Higashi-Agano's a nice place.
[07:38] Akira
    So unconcerned...
[07:56] Akira
    Reimi.
[07:57] Akira
    Hey, Reimi.
[07:59] Akira
    Flunking Reimi!
[08:03] Akira
    Fine! I can go to the bathroom by myself!
[08:11] Akira
    How come there's a huge sauna right there,
    but the bathroom's so far away?
[08:16] Akira
    Who designed this place?
[08:23] Resident
    Finally...
[08:24] Resident
    Some new blood.
[08:34] Resident
    Outsiders are so dumb.
[08:37] Resident
    They don't suspect a thing.
[08:38] Resident
    They just do everything we say.
[08:40] Resident
    We'll get them in one fell swoop.
[08:41] Resident
    The faster, the better.
[08:43] Keiko
    They'll be joining us soon.
[08:46] Resident
    It's for their own good.
[08:48] Resident
    We're doing them a favor.
[08:54] Resident
    Who's there?!
[09:12] Shizuru
    What's wrong?
[09:17] Akira
    Shizuru-chan...
[09:19] Reimi
    I'm wide awake now.
[09:21] Nadeshiko
    What happened?
[09:30] Shizuru
    Matsuta-san?
[09:31] Keiko
    The unfamiliar surroundings
    must have given her a bad dream.
[09:35] Reimi
    Don't scare us like that.
[09:37] Shizuru
    Akira, apologize to Matsuta-san.
[09:39] Shizuru
    Say sorry for screaming and making a fuss.
[09:42] Keiko
    Think nothing of it.
[09:43] Keiko
    Have yourselves a good night.
[09:47] Nadeshiko
    Let's go back to sleep.
[09:49] Akira
    This place is scary.
[09:50] Akira
    We gotta leave right away!
[09:52] Reimi
    You can't be serious.
[09:53] Reimi
    What a scaredy-cat.
[09:55] Akira
    No!
[09:56] Akira
    I'm not just crying wolf!
[09:57] Shizuru
    Snuggle up with her, Reimi.
[09:59] Reimi
    No way.
[10:00] Reimi
    Akira turns in her sleep.
[10:02] Nadeshiko
    Let's stop by the bathroom, Akira-chan.
[10:04] Nadeshiko
    You still need to go, right?
[10:05] Akira
    Yeah.
[10:07] Akira
    Are you there?
[10:08] Nadeshiko
    I'm right here.
[10:09] Akira
    Don't you move, Nadeko-chan!
[10:12] Nadeshiko
    Got it.
[10:16] Nadeshiko
    Not a star in the sky.
[10:18] Nadeshiko
    Is tomorrow another cloudy day?
[10:24] Akira
    You're being tricked!
[10:25] Shizuru
    Conspiracy nut, much?
[10:27] Reimi
    Akira sure loves that Freemanson stuff.
[10:29] Akira
    Mason!
[10:30] Nadeshiko
    It's okay.
[10:32] Nadeshiko
    We'll be leaving soon.
[10:36] Shizuru
    Yikes.
[10:37] Shizuru
    All this in one night?
[10:38] Reimi
    Did it get too much sunlight?
[10:40] Nadeshiko
    There's no way.
[10:41] Nadeshiko
    It's been cloudy all this time.
[10:42] Nadeshiko
    Also, this place is really damp
    compared to Agano.
[10:45] Nadeshiko
    These vines have spread everywhere.
[10:47] Reimi
    Ah, they've fruited already.
[10:53] Reimi
    They say the bitter part
    is chock-full of nutrients.
[10:56] Shizuru
    Why are you so stunned?
[10:58] Shizuru
    Huh? Why?
[10:59] Keiko
    Direct sunlight does nothing
    but harm all living things!
[11:04] Keiko
    Heat! Desiccation!
[11:05] Keiko
    The laws of the universe dictate
    that you'll wilt and burn to a crisp!
[11:08] Shizuru
    Huh...
[11:09] Keiko
    Growing heartily, flowering, and bearing fruit
    in such conditions is abnormal!
[11:14] Keiko
    The world went haywire thanks to life
    that prefers warm climates and sunlight!
[11:19] Shizuru
    Um...
[11:20] Keiko
    In any case, make sure you tear off 
    all the bitt—all of that!
[11:24] Shizuru
    Oh, sure.
[11:25] Shizuru
    That was our plan anyw—
[11:26] Keiko
    How revolting.
[11:30] Nadeshiko
    She really hates it.
[11:31] Shizuru
    Well, guess we have to pick
    all of these now.
[11:34] Akira
    What if it's all part of their plot?
[11:36] Shizuru
    What plot, exactly? Whose?
[11:38] Akira
    To prevent us from leaving this place.
[11:40] Reimi
    Again with your weird delusions.
[11:42] Akira
    I'm not delusional!
[11:43] Shizuru
    Akira.
[11:44] Shizuru
    You're on bitter melon pruning duty with me.
[11:46] Shizuru
    Reimi and Nadeko-chan,
    you go shopping in the meantime.
[11:49] Akira
    What?!
[11:50] Shizuru
    We need some food that
    won't spoil, don't we?
[11:52] Akira
    It's dangerous!
[11:53] Nadeshiko
    You're right.
[11:54] Nadeshiko
    I am a bit worried about what we have.
[11:56] Akira
    Nadeko-chan!
[11:57] Reimi
    Does Higashi-Agano have
    any convenience stores?
[11:59] Reimi
    I can't wait!
[12:00] Akira
    Reimi!
[12:01] Shizuru
    Thanks.
[12:05] Akira
    Shi... Re... Na...
[12:12] Akira
    What's the big idea?!
[12:13] Akira
    Bad! Bad idea!
[12:15] Shizuru
    Why's that?
[12:16] Shizuru
    You take the other side, Akira.
[12:18] Akira
    I thought we were going to Ikebukuro!
[12:20] Shizuru
    We sure are.
[12:21] Akira
    Where's your enthusiasm?!
[12:23] Akira
    I don't know how you can be so relaxed!
[12:27] Akira
    I'll go check up on them!
[12:40] Akira
    What's going on?!
[12:42] Akira
    This is bad!
[12:53] Akira

[13:04] Keiko
    Y-You girls need them more than we do.
[13:07] Reimi
    So generous of you!
[13:09] Nadeshiko
    This should be more than enough
    for the time being.
[13:12] Akira
    You know we can't repay

[13:15] Akira
    We're about to head out soon.
[13:16] Reimi
    People in Higashi-Agano
    are nice, unlike Agano.
[13:20] Nadeshiko
    Not to mention serene.
[13:21] Nadeshiko
    They're benevolent folks at heart.
[13:23] Keiko
    That's not true at all.
[13:25] Keiko
    Higashi-Agano had its fair share of
    worried and discontented humans.
[13:31] Keiko
    But, you see, we came to a realization
    after the 7G incident.
[13:34] Keiko
    Instead of a miserable life
    filled with suffering,
[13:38] Keiko
    it's better to live a short,
    satisfying life to its fullest.
[13:43] Keiko
    Once I came to terms with that,
    all of my anger subsided.
[13:47] Reimi
    That's so deep, Matsuta-san.
[13:50] Nadeshiko
    Do you think we can learn
    to think that way, too?
[13:53] Keiko
    Yes, I know you can.
[13:55] Keiko
    It won't be long for you all.
[13:59] Akira
    Hey!
[14:00] Akira
    Let's get going already!
[14:01] Akira
    Shizuru-chan was worried about you.
[14:03] Nadeshiko
    Worried? Why?
[14:05] Reimi
    I wish I could be like Matsuta-san.
[14:08] Akira
    No! We're going to Ikebukuro!
[14:10] Reimi
    What? Ikebukuro?
[14:12] Reimi
    Can't we stay in Higashi-Agano?
[14:14] Nadeshiko
    That sounds nice.
[14:15] Akira
    We can't do that!
[14:16] Akira
    We need to go find Yoka-chan!
[14:22] Akira
    Shizuru-chan?
[14:23] Akira
    You didn't prune the bitter melon.
[14:24] Shizuru
    Bitter melon?
[14:26] Shizuru
    Right, the bitter melon.
[14:27] Shizuru
    I started feeling like there wasn't
    any point to any of this.
[14:31] Akira
    What?!
[14:31] Shizuru
    Can we really make it to Ikebukuro?
[14:34] Shizuru
    I don't think we can.
[14:36] Akira
    You're kidding me!
[14:38] Akira
    We only just set out yesterday!
[14:39] Shizuru
    Even if we get there, it's not
    going to make any difference.
[14:43] Akira
    I thought you wanted to find Yoka-chan!
[14:45] Shizuru
    Even if we find her,
    it might not change anything.
[14:49] Shizuru
    Heck, she might not even want to see us.
[14:52] Akira
    You don't know that unless you find her!
[14:55] Akira
    Hey!
[14:55] Akira
    Reimi, Nadeko-chan, back me up here!
[14:57] Shizuru
    I'm sleepy.
[15:01] Reimi
    Pipe down, Akira.
[15:04] Nadeshiko
    Who wants to stay alive
    if it's miserable and awful?
[15:07] Nadeshiko
    You can't beat a short,
    happy, and easy life.
[15:12] Akira
    Damn it! They're goners!
[15:14] Akira
    Five o'clock!
[15:19] Akira
    Akira here. Now in Higashi-Agano.
[15:23] Zenjiro
    Agano here. Report your situation.
[15:26] Akira
    Lots of mushrooms.
[15:27] Akira
    Too many mushrooms.
SIGN    Agano Station
[15:28] Akira
    Tell me risk level of mushrooms.
[15:30] Zenjiro
    What? Mushrooms?
[15:32] Zenjiro
    Leave it to me!
[15:33] Akira
    "Matsutake for scent, shimeji for flavor"?
[15:36] Akira
    "Use dogs, not pigs, for truffles"?
[15:38] Akira
    "Black preferred over white"?
[15:40] Zenjiro
    Mushrooms sometimes grow
    in a circular, ring-like shape.
[15:44] Zenjiro
    This was believed to be the work
    of fairies or witches in olden times.
[15:47] Zenjiro
    In fact, this happens due to
    fungal growth and death cycles.
[15:51] Zenjiro
    They also say mushrooms grow
    where lightning has struck, but...
[15:54] Akira
    I don't care about lightning!
[15:56] Akira
    How do you avoid and escape mushrooms?!
[15:59] Akira
    "Mushrooms like moist, dark choo-choo..."
[16:01] Akira
    "Choo choo-choo, choo choo-choo..."
[16:07] Akira
    We wasted our precious five minutes
    on dumb mushroom trivia!
[16:20] Akira
    Bitter melon!
[16:23] Akira
    Go away!
[16:27] Resident
    Why fight back?
[16:29] Resident
    Just join us.
[16:31] Akira
    Shut up!
[16:32] Resident
    What do you gain from living like this?
[16:35] Akira
    I'd gain even less from
    turning into a mushroom!
[16:37] King Oyster
    It's okay.
[16:38] King Oyster
    Mushrooms don't worry.
[16:40] Enoki
    Mushrooms don't suffer.
[16:41] Fly Agaric
    Mushrooms don't think.
[16:43] Group
    Let's all become mushrooms.
[16:46] Akira
    No way in hell!
[16:47] Resident
    It's fun.
[16:53] Akira
    Mushrooms!
[16:54] Akira
    Army of mushrooms!
[17:00] Reimi
    Be quiet, Akira.
[17:02] Nadeshiko
    I want a peaceful life.
[17:04] Shizuru
    No thoughts, just drifting along.
[17:08] Akira
    Snap out of it!
[17:09] Akira
    What was all that talk
    about going to Ikebukuro?!
[17:12] Nadeshiko
    Ikebukuro...
[17:13] Akira
    Didn't you want to go to Ikebukuro
    and act all trendy?!
[17:16] Reimi
    Trendy?
[17:17] Akira
    What happened to finding Yoka?!
[17:20] Shizuru
    Yoka...
[17:21] Akira
    Do you really want to stay here
    growing mushrooms?!
[17:26] Shizuru
    Yoka.
[17:30] Shizuru
    Yoka left Agano and disappeared on us
    without a word.
[17:35] Shizuru
    Who cares about her?
[17:37] Akira
    That's not right!
[17:38] Akira
    She's our friend!
[17:39] Shizuru
    Friend...
[17:41] Shizuru
    Was she really our friend?
[17:43] Shizuru
    She wouldn't have left us
    if she was a friend.
[17:46] Shizuru
    And it's not like I understood
    how Yoka felt at all.
[17:53] (Flashback) Yoka
    Shizuru, you have so much
    to gain by studying.
[17:57] (Flashback) Shizuru
    What? I'm fine losing.
[18:00] (Flashback) Yoka
    You haven't handed in your future
    career form yet, have you?
[18:04] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Career, huh?
[18:05] (Flashback) Yoka
    Do you know what you want to be?
[18:07] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I sure do.
[18:08] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I want to be really smart!
[18:10] (Flashback) Yoka
    You'll need to study for that.
[18:12] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Again with the studying?
[18:15] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Do you know, Yoka?
[18:17] (Flashback) Yoka
    I do.
[18:17] (Flashback) Shizuru
    What? What is it?
[18:19] (Flashback) Yoka
    I want to go to Ikebukuro.
[18:20] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Don't play dumb!
[18:21] (Flashback) Shizuru
    You can do that by taking one train!
[18:23] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Maybe I should become an MMA fighter
    with my Agano jiu-jitsu.
[18:27] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I want to fight an anteater.
[18:29] (Flashback) Yoka
    Sounds good to me.
[18:30] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Take this seriously!
[18:32] (Flashback) Yoka
    I'm being serious.
[18:34] Shizuru
    Yoka...
[18:35] Akira
    That's right!
[18:37] Akira
    We're going to Ikebukuro to see Yoka-chan!
[18:39] Shizuru
    See Yoka in Ikebukuro.
[18:50] Akira
    Yeah!
[18:50] Shiitake
    Don't do it!
[18:51] Enoki
    You'd give up that peace and quiet?!
[18:52] Shimeji
    Don't be a rebel!
[18:54] Shizuru
    I'll be the one to decide
    whether to live an easy life or not!
[19:00] Akira
    Shizuru-chan!
[19:06] Shizuru
    Who're you?
[19:08] Shizuru
    I'm kidding!
[19:09] Shizuru
    Just a clever little joke.
[19:11] Akira
    Sheesh!
[19:11] Shizuru
    Sorry, sorry.
[19:13] Shizuru
    Let's yank those mushrooms off
    of Nadeko-chan and Reimi.
[19:15] Akira
    Yeah.
[19:15] King Oyster
    Don't you realize how good you have it?!

    A favor?
[20:14] Keiko
    We chose the path of the mushroom!
[20:17] Keiko
    To hell with spendin' decades in this
    godforsaken world with no future!
[20:20] Keiko
    Growing mushrooms, turning into
    happy, hippie homebodies,
[20:23] Keiko
    and dying in one to two years
    is a way better option!
[20:26] Shizuru
    Dying in one to two years?
[20:28] Keiko
    What's the point in goin' to Ikebukuro?
[20:30] Keiko
    It's a waste of time!
[20:31] Shizuru

[20:34] Keiko
    And then what?
[20:35] Keiko
    Hell, I bet ya won't even find her.
[20:38] Shizuru
    I'm still going to go.
[20:39] Shizuru
    I won't be happy until
    I go and see for myself!
[20:42] Keiko
    Ya damn fool!
[20:43] Keiko
    I hope ya choke on yer own blood
    and end up miserable and half-dead.
[20:48] Keiko
    Don't come cryin' to me then.
[20:54] Shizuru
    Let's go.
[20:57] Keiko
    Have it yer way.
[21:03] Akira
    Um...
[21:04] Akira
    Thanks for the food.
[21:07] Keiko
    Whatever.
[21:24] Shizuru
    Mushrooms, huh?
[21:26] Reimi
    I wonder how it feels.
[21:28] Nadeshiko
    Reimi-chan, you had some
    growing on you already.
[21:31] Reimi
    You too, Nadeko-chan.
[21:33] Reimi
    If they grew bigger, we might
    have been okay dying like that.
[21:38] Nadeshiko
    Maybe it feels good in its own way.
[21:40] Nadeshiko
    Just going with the flow.
[21:42] Nadeshiko
    It was a mysterious feeling...
    or, well, just weird.
[21:45] Akira
    Hang on!
[21:46] Akira
    You should all be thanking me!
[21:48] Reimi
    For what?
[21:49] Akira
    Saving your butts!
[21:51] Reimi
    Yeah, yeah, thanks a ton.
[21:52] Akira
    Say it like you mean it!
[21:54] Akira
    Hey!

[00:06] (Flashback) Akira
    She's got a green thumb.
[00:08] (Flashback) Reimi
    What was that? Tom Thumb?
[00:10] (Flashback) Akira
    It's someone who's good at gardening.

    Oh, it's called sweet myrtle.
[00:27] (Flashback) Nadeshiko
    You can use it herbally
    or make liquor from it.
[00:29] (Flashback) Nadeshiko
    Also, you can eat the berries that grow.

    Ah, don't do that, Akira. It's dangerous.

    What?
[00:42] (Flashback) Reimi
    If you look into the eyes of

    They say that so you won't
    lean over the bridge and fall.

[06:23] Reimi
    What's it doing?
[06:24] Shizuru
    Wait, is it coming this way?
[06:26] Akira
    Yes, yes, yes it is!
[06:40] Reimi
    What are those things?!
[06:41] Akira
    They look like Baphomet!
[06:42] Reimi
    You mean those are helmets?!
[06:43] Reimi
    So we can communicate?
[06:44] Reimi
    Hey, stop ramming into us!
[06:48] Reimi
    What on earth is the deal
    with those helmets?!
[06:50] Akira
    Baphomet dates back to the 14th century, when
    King Philip IV targeted the Knights Templar—
[06:55] Nadeshiko
    Pochi-san!
[06:56] Nadeshiko
    It's okay, don't be scared!
[06:57] Akira
    Shizuru-chan!
[06:58] Akira
    Faster, faster!
[06:58] Shizuru
    I'm trying, okay?!
[07:13] Nadeshiko
    What was the deal with those goats?
[07:16] Nadeshiko
    What were they after?
[07:18] Reimi
    No clue.
[07:20] Reimi
    Are there twenty-eight more stations of that?
[07:24] Nadeshiko
    Stop it.
[07:24] Nadeshiko
    Don't say that.
[07:32] Shizuru
    Take turns driving, you mean?
[07:34] Nadeshiko
    Yes.
[07:35] Nadeshiko
    We can't let you be the only one.
[07:37] Reimi
    Oh, yeah.
[07:37] Reimi
    I guess you have been driving 
    ever since we left Agano.
[07:41] Shizuru
    It's fine, it's fine.
[07:43] Shizuru
    It was my idea to go to Ikebukuro.
[07:45] Nadeshiko
    That doesn't matter now.
[07:47] Shizuru
    I think it does.
[07:48] Nadeshiko
    No, it doesn't.
[07:49] Reimi
    Yeah, it really doesn't.
[07:51] Reimi
    What do you think, Akira?
[07:52] Akira
    Huh?
[07:53] Reimi
    We should all take turns driving, right?
[07:56] Akira
    Ah, yeah.
[07:57] Reimi
    Yeah!
[07:58] Reimi
    After all...
[08:01] Reimi
    Why?
[08:02] Akira
    Huh?
[08:03] Reimi
    Why do you think that?
[08:04] Akira
    Well, obviously it's dangerous if she gets
    tired and falls asleep at the controls.
[08:08] Akira
    If we take turns driving the train,
    that means more time spent moving,
[08:12] Akira
    which makes it more efficient.
[08:14] Akira
    We'll get to Ikebukuro faster that way.
[08:16] Reimi
    Yeah, yeah.
[08:16] Reimi
    I was thinking the same thing as Akira.
[08:18] Nadeshiko
    See? It's all for the best.
[08:21] Shizuru
    Yeah.
[08:22] Shizuru
    Thanks.
[08:23] Reimi
    You need to get some rest, too.
[08:25] Reimi
    We don't know how long
    it'll be to Ikebukuro.
[08:28] Akira
    I'm glad you're learning.
[08:29] Akira
    You were so sure it'd only be three days.
[08:31] Reimi
    Aren't I amazing?
[08:32] Akira
    But can you really drive this thing?
[08:34] Reimi
    I sure can!
[08:35] Reimi
    You know Densha de Go?
[08:36] Reimi
    I've played games like those before.
[08:38] Nadeshiko
    Then once we finish eating
    and fold the laundry,
[08:40] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan can give us a crash course.
[08:42] Shizuru
    Okay.
[08:43] Reimi
    Let's wrap up dinner real quick.
[08:45] Reimi
    I used to hate bitter melon.
[08:48] Reimi
    But it tastes good nowadays.
[08:50] Reimi
    I'm so mature now.
[08:50] Nadeshiko
    It's even tastier eating it here like this.
[08:53] Shizuru
    Now I know why Neko-nii's crew pays
    good money to buy Agano bitter melon.
[08:58] Shizuru
    It may be bitter, but it's sweet, too.
[09:00] Nadeshiko
    And it has "umami," I think it was.
[09:02] Reimi
    Oh, I know what that is.
[09:03] Reimi
    Umami, umami.
[09:04] Shizuru
    Now, if I don't eat bitter melon at least
    once a day, I don't feel so great.
[09:08] Reimi
    I totally get you.
[09:10] Reimi
    What's up?
[09:11] Akira
    Bathroom.
[09:12] Nadeshiko
    Should I come?
[09:13] Akira
    I'm fine by myself.
[09:15] Shizuru
    Oh, have fun.
[09:16] Reimi
    If it just looked a little cuter,
    it'd be perfect.
[09:25] Reimi
    If those mushrooms grow on you,
    you could die in as little as one year.
[09:30] Akira
    No way! It's fine!
[09:32] Akira
    I'm totally fine!
[09:33] Akira
    This is a boil, not a mushroom!
[09:35] Akira
    I get boils really easily.
[09:38] Akira
    Don't worry. No problem.
[09:39] Akira
    I swear on Tatsuhiko that I'm fine!
[10:20] Shizuru
    Let's get out of here!
[10:21] Shizuru
    Nadeko-chan, accelerate!
[10:22] Nadeshiko
    Ah, okay!
[10:39] Reimi
    Akira, come over here!
[10:41] Reimi
    If you don't wash yourself properly,
    Pochi-san will sniff your butt again.
[10:45] Akira
    Shut up, moron!
[10:46] Akira
    Flunking Reimi!
[11:15] Akira
    Peace. Tranquility.
[11:18] Akira
    I want to stay like this forever.
[11:29] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan, do we stop or keep going?
[11:32] Shizuru
    For now, we won't stop.
[11:34] Shizuru
    Let's keep moving slowly.
[11:36] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan, there are
    a ton of golf balls here.
[11:38] Akira
    You're right. There's so many.
[11:41] Reimi
    Oh, no!
[11:42] Nadeshiko
    What's wrong?
[11:42] Reimi
    Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no!
[11:43] Nadeshiko
    Reimi-chan, you're scaring me.
[11:45] Nadeshiko
    Just tell us.
[11:46] Reimi
    I just had an awful thought.
[11:48] Reimi
    The goat people in Musashi-Yokote Station...
[11:50] Reimi
    The weird root things at Koma Station...
[11:53] Reimi
    The golf balls here...
[11:55] Reimi
    What if the people who lived nearby...
[12:03] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan!
[12:09] Reimi
    It's raining golf ball people!
[12:11] Nadeshiko
    No!
[12:16] Reimi
    Ugh, ew, ew, ew!
[12:18] Reimi
    What's with all these creepy stops?!
[12:20] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan, let's get this over with!
[12:22] Reimi
    That thing you said... Um, what was it?
[12:24] Reimi
    Lunch Pack?
[12:25] Shizuru
    You mean "switchback."
SIGN    Hanno
SIGN    Higashi-Hanno

[12:26] Shizuru
    Starting here, the other end will be in front.
[12:28] Shizuru
    Let's move all our belongings back here.
[12:30] Nadeshiko
    Okay.
[12:31] Reimi
    All these stops are so scary!
[12:33] Reimi
    They're just getting worse as we go.
[12:35] Reimi
    I wish we could talk to someone,
    even if they're not human, like in Agano.
[12:38] Akira
    Don't say that.
[12:40] Reimi
    Are you gonna make fun of me again?
[12:42] Akira
    Y'know, being able to talk...
[12:45] Akira
    means being able to lie,
    or say hurtful things,
[12:48] Akira
    or start arguments.
[12:51] Akira
    If it means getting rid
    of a source of conflict,
[12:54] Akira
    I feel like not being able to talk is fine.
[12:57] Akira
    Then you can stay real still.
[13:00] Akira
    In a dark, quiet, and damp...
[13:04] Akira
    Huh, what?
[13:05] Akira
    What are you doing?!
[13:06] Reimi
    Why are you hiding your butt?
[13:07] Akira
    I'm not hiding it!
[13:09] Reimi
    Akira.
[13:11] Reimi
    Let me see!
[13:12] Akira
    No!
[13:13] Reimi
    Show me!
[13:13] Akira
    No way!
[13:16] Reimi
    Meanie!
[13:16] Reimi
    Like I'd give up that easily!
[13:17] Akira
    Stop it!
[13:18] Reimi
    I'm not stopping!
[13:20] Nadeshiko
    Let's have a look.
[13:26] Nadeshiko
    Akira-chan, is this...
[13:28] Akira
    No, no, no!
[13:29] Reimi
    How long have you...
[13:30] Akira
    I'm okay!
[13:31] Akira
    I feel totally fine!
[13:32] Shizuru
    Is something wrong?
[13:33] Nadeshiko
    Akira-chan has mushrooms growing on her!
[13:35] Shizuru
    What?!
[13:35] Nadeshiko
    I've got her, so take the other end!
[13:37] Akira
    No, don't pull them off!
[13:39] Akira
    I've finally achieved tranquility!
[13:41] Reimi
    You dummy!
[13:42] Reimi
    You'll die in one to two years like this!
[13:44] Akira
    That's fine!
[13:45] Akira
    Pessimism is cool, anyway!
[13:46] Akira
    I don't want to live a life plagued
    with fear in this topsy-turvy world!
[13:51] Reimi
    You've always been like this!
[13:53] Reimi
    Cynical, snarky, and always
    laughing at others!
[13:55] Akira
    Cram it!
[13:56] Akira
    Flunking monkey Reimi!
[13:58] Reimi
    You never say anything
    when stuff happens to you
[14:00] Reimi
    and act tough even when things
    take a turn for the worse!
[14:02] Akira
    Mushroom, mushroom, mushroom!
[14:03] Reimi
    Even though you're a scaredy-cat
    and a big crybaby!
[14:17] Reimi
    What was that?
[14:20] Reimi
    Akira!
[14:21] Reimi
    Akira!
[14:22] Reimi
    Hey, Akira!
[14:23] Nadeshiko
    Are you okay, Akira-chan?
[14:24] Shizuru
    Akira!
[14:27] Akira
    Reimi-chan, Shizuru-chan, and Nadeko-chan.
[14:31] Akira
    You're all so weird.
[14:32] Akira
    Akira's doing good as always.
[14:35] Akira
    Hunky-dory!
[14:38] Reimi
    Akira?
[14:39] Akira
    That's me!
[14:40] Nadeshiko
    Something's off about her.
[14:42] Akira
    What do you mean, Nadeko-chan?
[14:44] Akira
    Akira's not off at all!
[14:46] Akira
    Hmph!
[14:47] Reimi
    Why?!
[14:48] Akira
    Hmph, hmph! Hm-hm-hmph!
[14:48] Reimi
    We turned back to normal, right?!
[14:50] Akira
    Hey, Reimi-chan!
[14:52] Akira
    Don't yell so loud!
[14:54] Akira
    Bad girl!
[14:54] Nadeshiko
    Maybe the mushrooms already grew too much?
[14:58] Nadeshiko
    They were really long.
[14:59] Reimi
    What?
[15:00] Reimi
    You mean we pulled out something
    we shouldn't have as well?
[15:03] Shizuru
    Let's sit her up for now.
[15:04] Reimi
    C'mon, Akira.
[15:05] Akira
    'Kay.
[15:08] Akira
    Up I go.
[15:10] Akira
    Huh?
[15:11] Akira
    Oopsie.
[15:12] Akira
    I can't move how I want.
[15:16] Akira
    Why is that?
[15:18] Reimi
    Is this... my fault?
[15:22] Akira
    Doesn't that feel good?
[15:24] Akira
    Who's a cute wittle dog?
[15:25] Reimi
    Her soul. We pulled out her soul.
[15:26] Akira
    Your face is so flabby.
[15:28] Reimi
    That irritating hipster soul of hers!
[15:31] Shizuru
    No good.
[15:32] Shizuru
    I don't see a hospital on here.
[15:33] Shizuru
    That swan hermit's map—
    I mean, scrawl—is useless!
[15:37] Reimi
    Let's go back to Agano!
[15:38] Reimi
    The water might have receded by now.
[15:39] Nadeshiko
    No one back home can treat her.
[15:41] Nadeshiko
    Not to mention, the tracks are all bent.
[15:43] Reimi
    Hey, what do we do if Akira ends up dying?
[15:46] Reimi
    I really don't want that to happen!
[15:48] Shizuru
    Calm down. It'll be fine.
[15:50] Nadeshiko
    Yeah.
[15:50] Nadeshiko
    I'm sure we'll be able to fix her, Reimi-chan.
[15:52] Nadeshiko
    Okay?
[15:53] Reimi
    But I was the one who...
[15:57] Akira
    Starting today, I'm going
    to call you Anthony!
[16:03] Reimi
    Please, Zenjiro-san, help us somehow!
[16:06] Reimi
    I'll stop calling you a stupid old fart,
    no matter what you do from now on!
[16:09] Zenjiro
    What?!
[16:10] Zenjiro
    That sounds like it's
    affected her brain directly!
[16:13] Zenjiro
    I've got this!
[16:14] Zenjiro
    If you're in Hanno...
[16:15] Shizuru
    "I know a good doctor with a foul mouth."
[16:19] Shizuru
    "Used to be colleagues."
[16:22] Shizuru
    "In grade school,
    pooped pants and blamed me."
[16:27] Shizuru
    "Cheated on test, recorder saliva incident,
    blamed me for everything."
[16:33] Shizuru
    "Now in Inariyama Parchoo-choo choo-choo..."
[16:39] Reimi
    Stupid old fart!
[16:40] Nadeshiko
    Inariyama...
[16:42] Nadeshiko
    Does he mean Inariyama Park?
[16:44] Shizuru
    Yeah, I think so.
[16:46] Reimi
    Ah, the poop that tastes like curry!
[16:47] Nadeshiko
    We've had enough poop talk for one day!
[16:49] Reimi
    No, no.
[16:50] Reimi
    Akira mentioned it back then!
[16:52] Reimi
    Kazuyo-san said there's a good doctor
    in Inariyama Park.
[16:56] Shizuru
    Really?!
[16:56] Shizuru
    Kazuyo-san, the capybara?
[16:58] Reimi
    Yeah.
[16:58] Reimi
    But they don't know who it is
    or if they're human.
[17:01] Nadeshiko
    We don't even know what
    Inariyama Park looks like nowadays.
[17:05] Shizuru
    Don't panic.
[17:07] Shizuru
    Calm down.
[17:10] Shizuru
    We'll head there, steadily but quickly.
[17:24] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan.
[17:26] Reimi
    How's it look, Shizuru-chan?
[17:28] Shizuru
    Well, I didn't see anyone!
[17:32] Shizuru
    But you can use the bathrooms here.
[17:34] Shizuru
    They have running water.
[17:36] Reimi
    I might go as well, then.
[17:38] Nadeshiko
    Me too.
[17:39] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan.
[17:40] Shizuru
    Yeah, okay.
[17:41] Shizuru
    I'll look after Akira.
[17:42] Nadeshiko
    Thanks.
[17:43] Reimi
    Finally, someone who can talk!
[17:45] Jizo
    Well, duh!
[17:46] Jizo
    I'm a jizo, dang it!
[17:47] Reimi
    What's Inariyama Park like?
[17:49] Reimi
    Is there a human doctor there?
[17:50] Jizo
    Don't ask me!
[17:52] Jizo
    We can't move, you know.
[17:54] Jizo
    That said, it's real nice not having
    to move once you get used to it.
[17:57] Jizo
    Ticks me off that I can't eat
    these offerings, though.
[18:00] Jizo
    Inariyama-koen Station is
    two stops from here, right?
[18:03] Jizo
    That's all I know.
[18:04] Jizo
    Dunno about any doctors.
[18:06] Jizo
    Sorry.

[18:40] Reimi
    Okay, Nadeko-chan.
[18:42] Reimi
    Take care of Akira.
[18:43] Nadeshiko
    Sure.
[18:43] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan, take care of Reimi-chan.
[18:45] Shizuru
    Yeah, okay.
[18:46] Reimi
    Why do I need taking care of?
[18:48] Shizuru
    You sometimes lose sight of the big picture.
[18:51] Reimi
    Huh? Who, me?
[18:53] Reimi
    Don't know what you mean.
[19:02] Reimi
    Hey, there's nothing here!
[19:03] Shizuru
    For real.
[19:05] Shizuru
    Not a soul in sight, doctor or otherwise.
[19:09] Reimi
    Something's ringing.
[19:12] Shizuru
    That way!
[19:13] Reimi
    Hmm, I see something.
[19:15] Reimi
    Looks like a wall.
[19:16] Shizuru
    No way... I don't see anything.
[19:18] Shizuru
    You really do have a vision of 25.
[19:21] Reimi
    No, it's only 2.5.
[19:25] Reimi
    It stopped.
[19:25] Shizuru
    Let's check it out.
[19:27] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan! Look, a town!
[19:30] Reimi
    Looks empty, though.
[19:32] Shizuru
    There was that weird ringing just now, though.
[19:34] Reimi
    Yeah, I heard it.
[19:35] Reimi
    A person must have set it off.
[19:37] Shizuru
    Let's circle around and scope things—
[19:39] Reimi
    No, we don't have much time.
[19:41] Reimi
    We need to find a doctor quick
    and have them look at Akira.
[19:49] Shizuru
    So close!
[19:50] Reimi
    More like small!
[19:52] Reimi
    What is this? Are we Gulliver?
[19:53] Reimi
    This is kind of cute.
[19:55] Reimi
    It's like we're at whatsit World Square.
[19:57] Shizuru
    I think everything was smaller there.
[20:00] Reimi
    I guess there really is no one here.
[20:02] Shizuru
    Looks like it.
[20:07] Shizuru
    A plane?!
[20:08] Reimi
    Wow, haven't seen that in a while!

    Ow, ow, ow!
[20:19] Group
    What? What?
[20:20] Reimi
    That hurts!
[20:21] Shizuru
    Actually, it's more itchy than painful!
[20:23] Reimi
    Oh, you're right.
[20:24] Reimi
    Man, I'm itchy!
[20:25] Group
    Ow! Itchy! Ow! Itchy!

[02:24] Reimi
    Those tiny soldiers we saw
    must have done this to us!
[02:27] Shizuru
    I'm alive.
[02:28] Reimi
    I can't move at all!
[02:30] Reimi
    How about you?
[02:36] Shizuru
    No use.
[02:36] Shizuru
    Man, they really got us good, though,
     with those missile-looking things.
[02:39] Reimi
    They didn't just look it, 
    those were missiles!
[02:42] Reimi
    The mini-mini soldiers unloaded those
    nasty, itchy bullets on us, too!
[02:45] Reimi
    I know what it is!
[02:47] Reimi
    The bullets hurt less
    because they're so small!
[02:49] Shizuru
    Really?
[02:50] Reimi
    I dunno, probably!
[02:51] Reimi
    Anyway, we need to get these off!
[02:53] Shizuru
    Yeah, you're right.
[02:54] Reimi
    Ah, sheesh!
[03:13] Captain
    Who in the world are you?
[03:15] Reimi
    Take these off first.
[03:16] Captain
    Answer me.
[03:17] Reimi
    No way. Untie me, and I'll talk.
[03:20] Captain
    You can stay tied up until you die, then.
[03:24] Shizuru
    We came from Agano!
[03:26] Captain
    Agano?
[03:28] Captain
    The people in Agano didn't change, either?
[03:30] Shizuru
    Either? Did you say "either"?
[03:32] Captain
    I'm asking if the folks
    in Agano stayed the same!
[03:35] Shizuru
    It hasn't happened yet, but we'll
    eventually turn into animals.
[03:39] Captain
    Why did you come here?
[03:42] Shizuru
    For a walk.
[03:43] Reimi
    We're trying to find medical help!
[03:44] Shizuru
    Why'd you tell him?!
[03:45] Reimi
    I shouldn't have?
[03:47] Shizuru
    I was going to tell him little by little!
[03:48] Reimi
    I didn't know that!
[03:50] Shizuru
    If you spill the beans,
    we have nothing to bargain with!
[03:52] Reimi
    What? I said I'd talk if they untied us.
[03:55] Shizuru
    That's why that guy tried to leave!
[03:56] Shizuru
    You can't take that attitude from the start!
[03:59] Reimi
    Well, that guy annoys me a lot!
[04:01] Shizuru
    He annoys me just as much!
[04:03] Captain
    Spin the blades!
[04:11] Shizuru
    What, what?!
[04:12] Reimi
    H-H-Hey!
[04:14] Reimi
    Ow! Stop th—Ow!
[04:15] Shizuru
    Sorry! We're sorry!
[04:15] Reimi
    Ow! My face! It hurts!
[04:17] Captain
    Stop the blades.
[04:20] Captain
    Quit your damn yapping!
[04:21] Captain
    I'm the one asking the questions!
[04:23] Captain
    Who said you could argue?!
[04:25] Captain
    Or insult me, for that matter?!
[04:27] Reimi
    He's really mad all of a sudden.
[04:28] Captain
    I'm not mad!
[04:29] Captain
    You little girls can't make me mad!
[04:31] Captain
    I'm the captain here!
[04:32] Captain
    Why would the captain get mad at—
[04:34] Soldier
    Captain.
[04:34] Captain
    Yeah, all right!
[04:36] Captain
    Surely you can find medical
    help in Agano, too.
[04:39] Reimi
    We're looking for someone called the Doctor.
[04:43] Captain
    You know the Doctor?
[04:44] Reimi
    We pulled some mushrooms off of our friend,
    and now she might die!
[04:48] Captain
    Mushrooms?
[04:49] Captain
    Is that due to 7G as well?
[04:51] Reimi
    Obviously!
[04:53] Reimi
    It is, right?
[04:54] Shizuru
    Has to be.
[04:56] Captain
    It's just like the Boss said.
[04:59] Shizuru
    What's gotten into them?
[05:00] Captain
    We need to report this at once.
[05:01] Reimi
    Hey!
[05:02] Reimi
    We talked, so untie us!
[05:04] Captain
    I never agreed to that.
[05:06] Captain
    We can't let news of our town
    reach outside ears.
[05:08] Reimi
    Why not?
[05:09] Captain
    It was a decision made by our astute boss.
[05:12] Reimi
    "Boss"?
[05:13] Captain
    On the Boss's orders, your skeletons
    will be displayed tomorrow,
[05:16] Captain
    next to the Akebono elephant
    fossil in Sayama City Museum.
[05:19] Shizuru
    Wait, skeletons?
[05:21] Reimi
    We'd die if we became skeletons!
[05:22] Reimi
    That's a death sentence!
[05:24] Reimi
    Hey, wait!
[05:26] Reimi
    Let us go, you puny little insects!
[05:30] Nadeshiko
    Current, check.
[05:31] Nadeshiko
    Voltage, check.
[05:32] Akira
    Nadeko-chan! Anthony!
[05:34] Akira
    Come here!
[05:35] Nadeshiko
    Okay, give me a minute.
[05:37] Nadeshiko
    Pochi-san. Akira-chan's calling you!
[05:40] Akira
    Quick, come here!
[05:41] Nadeshiko
    Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
[05:42] Nadeshiko
    Check!
[05:44] Nadeshiko
    What's wrong, Akira-chan?
[05:45] Akira
    Where did Reimi-chan and Shizuru-chan go?
[05:48] Akira
    Akira's bored all alone here.
[05:51] Nadeshiko
    I bet you are.
[05:52] Nadeshiko
    They'll be back in no time.
    Can you wait a little longer?
[05:55] Akira
    I bet they took a detour
    to grab some ice cream!
[05:58] Akira
    So I'll play with Anthony instead.
[06:02] Nadeshiko
    Pochi-san. She's in your paws
    while I finish my inspection.
[06:06] Akira
    Anthony, you're so fluffy and cute.
[06:09] Akira
    Your face keeps getting scrunchier.
[06:13] Reimi
    Agh, my wrists hurt!
[06:15] Shizuru
    Stop that. You'll make them bleed.
[06:17] Reimi
    We've got more pressing issues here!
[06:18] Shizuru
    You'll snap your bracelet!
[06:20] Shizuru
    Hear me out here.
[06:23] Reimi
    Sure.
[06:23] Shizuru
    We know that the Doctor
    is here in this town.
[06:26] Reimi
    Yeah.
[06:27] Shizuru
    Now we just need to find them.
[06:29] Reimi
    Huh?
[06:29] Reimi
    How about a way to break free?
[06:31] Shizuru
    No idea yet.
[06:32] Reimi
    There!
[06:33] Reimi
    That's the important part!
[06:34] Reimi
    You got my hopes up! I regret it now!
[06:36] Reimi
    Isn't there something we can do?
[06:41] Reimi
    Hey, hey!
[06:42] Reimi
    Hey, wait! Wait up, lady!
[06:44] Reimi
    Undo these ropes, please!
[06:46] Shizuru
    We're not here to harm you.
[06:49] Shizuru
    All we want is for this Doctor
    person to help our friend!
[06:53] Lady
    If I talk to you, the Boss will
    have my skeleton put on display.
[06:57] Reimi
    Seriously, who is this boss, anyway?!
[06:59] Lady
    If I tell you, I'll be reduced to bones.
[07:01] Shizuru
    Then why did you approach us?
[07:03] Shizuru
    You must have had a reason!
[07:05] Lady
    I'm in charge of cleaning this area,
    so I was checking for trash.
[07:09] Lady
    If anything's dirty,
    I'll be reduced to bones.
[07:12] Reimi
    How about this?
[07:12] Reimi
    We'll help you pick up garbage!
[07:14] Reimi
    Hey!
[07:15] Shizuru
    Pee.
[07:17] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan?!
[07:19] Shizuru
    I'll pee myself, right here.
[07:20] Shizuru
    I've needed to use the
    bathroom this whole time.
[07:22] Shizuru
    I can't hold it in, so I'll just pee here.
[07:26] Shizuru
    The park will end up a mess, but oh well.
[07:28] Reimi
    I need to pee, too!
[07:30] Reimi
    Like, a lot!
[07:31] Reimi
    Not my problem.
[07:32] Shizuru
    If you untie us, I promise
    we'll take down the Boss.
[07:35] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan's a real badass,
    with her Agano jiu-jitsu!
[07:38] Reimi
    And I'm... pretty badass, too!
[07:39] Shizuru
    Help us and become a skeleton,
[07:42] Shizuru
    or get peed on and become a skeleton.
[07:44] Shizuru
    Pick one.
[07:47] Reimi
    Ah, a little came out.
[07:49] Reimi
    Thanks, lady!
[07:50] Lady
    Ow, ow, ow...
[07:52] Reimi
    Oh, sorry.
[07:52] Shizuru
    We'll beat up the Boss.
[07:54] Shizuru
    But take us to the Doctor first.
[07:56] Lady
    The Doctor's been captured by the Boss.
[07:58] Shizuru
    What? No way!
[08:00] Lady
    So, first we'll need to help someone
    who knows the Doctor's whereabouts.
[08:03] Reimi
    No one's here.
[08:05] Lady
    We've been placed under a curfew.
[08:07] Shizuru
    Why's the Doctor imprisoned, anyway?
[08:10] Lady
    Let me start from the beginning.
[08:12] Lady
    Most likely, our transformation
    was caused by that 7G incident.
[08:17] Lady
    After first swelling greatly in size,
    the recoil caused the town to turn small.
[08:21] Lady
    Amidst the chaos, one person
    brought the townsfolk together.
[08:24] Lady
    That would be the Doctor,
    Gappa Makoto Ångström-san.
[08:27] Reimi
    Sounds amazing, name and all!
[08:29] Lady
    The people appointed
    Makoto-sensei as their leader,
[08:31] Lady
    and were able to sustain their way of life
    without issue, other than their size.
[08:35] Lady
    But that was before the Boss arrived.
[08:38] Lady
    The Boss seized control
    of the town in no time,
[08:41] Lady
    imprisoning Makoto-sensei
    in an unknown location.
[08:45] Reimi
    Is the Boss really that strong?
[08:46] Lady
    In time, the town was divided between
    the Inariyama upper class, loyal to the Boss,
[08:51] Lady
    and the Inariyama lower class,
    who were deprived of their freedom.
[08:54] Lady
    We lower-class citizens are
    under constant supervision
[08:58] Lady
    and exist solely for infrastructure upkeep.
[09:00] Reimi
    Infrastructure? Is that like influenza?
[09:02] Lady
    We're forced to maintain the military base
[09:04] Lady
    and generate electricity to be
    used by the Boss for his enjoyment.
[09:07] Reimi
    That's awful!
[09:08] Lady
    Everyone has given up.
[09:10] Lady
    But if Makoto-sensei were to return,
[09:13] Lady
    maybe we could all unite and fight back!
[09:15] Shizuru
    That's why you came to us?
[09:17] Lady
    Yes.
[09:23] Reimi
    What now, Shizuru-chan?
[09:43] Lady
    Please!
[09:44] Lady
    Tell us where they've taken Makoto-sensei.
[09:47] Lady
    As a former upper-class citizen,
    I'm sure you know.
[09:51] Shizuru
    Um...
[09:52] Shizuru
    We promise not to rat you out.
[09:55] Nadeshiko
    Let's see...
[09:56] Nadeshiko
    Currently in Inariyama Park.
[09:58] Nadeshiko
    Searching for physician.
[10:00] Zenjiro
    Why a physician, of all things?
[10:02] Zenjiro
    Is someone sick?!
[10:02] Nadeshiko
    What?
[10:03] Nadeshiko
    Didn't we say Akira-chan had
    mushrooms growing on her?
[10:05] Zenjiro
    Heard about mushrooms.
[10:07] Zenjiro
    This physician stuff's new!
[10:08] Nadeshiko
    Didn't you say there was a
    physician in Inariyama Park?
[10:10] Zenjiro
    No!
[10:11] Zenjiro
    That's not whachoo choo-choo...
[10:15] Akira
    Nadeko-chan, are you in trouble?
[10:17] Nadeshiko
    You can tell from my face?
[10:18] Akira
    Actually, Akira is in trouble, too.
[10:21] Akira
    My body feels heavy, and I can't move.
[10:23] Nadeshiko
    Akira-chan!
[10:25] Akira
    But no need to worry!
[10:26] Akira
    When I'm in trouble, Reimi-chan
    always shows up to save the day.
[10:31] (Flashback) Reimi
    My tummy hurt so much, you know!
[10:34] (Flashback) Akira
    I didn't think you'd actually eat it!
[10:36] (Flashback) Reimi
    There's nothing left of my textbook now!
[10:37] Akira
    Serves you right for taking the easy way out!
[10:39] (Flashback) Reimi
    We're not friends anymore!

    Hey, whatcha reading?
[10:45] (Flashback) Boy B
    Ugh, looks boring!
[10:46] (Flashback) Boy B
    Nothing but words!

    I think it's fun...
[10:49] (Flashback) Boy C
    Huh?!
[10:50] (Flashback) Boy C
    Did you just laugh at us because
    Nishi-Agano's on the Chichibu Line?!

    Stop it!
[10:55] (Flashback) Reimi
    Hey, you!
[10:56] (Flashback) Reimi
    What d'you think you're doing to Akira?!
[10:59] Akira
    But she's a teensy bit late today.
[11:02] Akira
    She's in for a scolding
    when she gets back. Hmph.
[11:05] Nadeshiko
    Yeah.
[11:06] Nadeshiko
    Okay!
[11:07] Nadeshiko
    I'll give her a scolding, too!

    I'm here!

    Reimi-chan!
[13:27] Akira
    So slow!
[13:28] Akira
    Action figures!
[13:30] Nadeshiko
    Wait, what?!
[13:31] Reimi
    The Doctor and some folks from Inariyama.
[13:33] Reimi
    Once Akira's better,
    we gotta go help Shizuru-chan.
[13:35] Nadeshiko
    Shizu... What's going on?!
[13:36] Reimi
    Look, Akira.
[13:37] Reimi
    We brought a physician.
[13:38] Makoto
    Wait. I'm no physician.
[13:40] Reimi
    What?!
[13:41] Reimi
    Aren't you a doctor?!
[13:42] Makoto
    I'm a scientist.
[13:44] Reimi
    Then you're no help! You can't fix her!
[13:47] Makoto
    Why don't you tell me what happened first?
[13:49] Reimi
    What's the point if you're not a physician?!
[13:51] Nadeshiko
    When we pulled out these mushrooms
    growing from her butt a few hours ago,
[13:54] Nadeshiko
    her entire personality changed.
[13:55] Nadeshiko
    She's slowly becoming unable to move her body.
[13:58] Makoto
    Let me take a look.
[14:02] Makoto
    Akira-kun, was it?
[14:03] Makoto
    After the mushrooms were pulled, has anything
    changed other than your body feeling heavy?
[14:06] Akira
    Lemme see...
[14:09] Akira
    It feels cold and empty inside my head.
[14:11] Makoto
    You girls lucked out.
[14:13] Makoto
    If this is caused by 7G,
    a physician can't help her.
[14:15] Reimi
    So, can you help her, Sensei?
[14:17] Makoto
    Not so fast.
[14:18] Makoto
    This isn't my area of specialty as a scientist.
[14:20] Makoto
    But as a researcher who was involved
    with 7G, I can venture a guess.
[14:23] Group
    What?
[14:24] Lady
    You worked on 7G?!
[14:25] Man
    So the reason that the Boss
    was scared of you...
[14:28] Makoto
    He knew of my experience and figured
    I might be able to return the town to normal.
[14:32] Makoto
    We refer to what occurred as the
    "7G wave brain phenomenon."
[14:37] Reimi
    Seven ele— what?
[14:38] Makoto
    Under the effects of 7G, one's perception
    can cause drastic changes to one's own body.
[14:44] Makoto
    By undoing said perception—
[14:45] Reimi
    In simpler terms!
[14:46] Makoto
    In other words, the changes to Akira-kun
[14:49] Makoto
    result from her perception that a vital part
    of her got pulled out with the mushrooms.
[14:53] Makoto
    Which means that to convince her
    that she's back to normal,
[14:55] Makoto
    you need to feed her some mushrooms.
[14:57] Reimi
    What?
[14:57] Makoto
    Mushrooms. Don't you have any?
[14:59] Nadeshiko
    No, we don't.
[15:01] Reimi
    Are we going back to Higashi-Agano?!
[15:02] Makoto
    No. I believe there were some
    growing in the Boss's room.
[15:05] Nadeshiko
    Mushrooms?!
[15:06] Makoto
    If Zenjiro were still alive, he might
    have found a better course of action.
[15:10] Reimi
    What? Did you say Zenjiro?
[15:12] Nadeshiko
    Do you mean Taira Zenjiro from Agano?
[15:15] Makoto
    How do you know him?!
[15:16] Makoto
    Is he still alive?!
[15:18] Nadeshiko
    He's alive... though his brain is addled.
[15:21] Nadeko
    Zenjiro...
[15:29] (Flashback) Pontaro
    Wibble-wobble, go!
[15:31] (Flashback) Surgeon
    Commencing wibble-wobble surgery.
[15:41] (Flashback) Zenjiro
    Run for it!
[15:43] (Flashback) Zenjiro
    Don't stop! Hurry!
[15:45] (Flashback) Zenjiro
    Get out of here!
[15:50] Makoto
    I owe Zenjiro my life.
[15:53] Makoto
    But for now, Akira-kun comes first.
[16:01] Shizuru
    Where... am I?
[16:05] Boss
    This is my room.
[16:07] Shizuru
    What do you want with me?
[16:09] Shizuru
    Gonna execute me and put my bones on display?
[16:11] Boss
    Yeah, that's a good idea!
[16:13] Shizuru
    Now that I can move,
    I don't see myself losing to you.
[16:16] Boss
    Ah, yes, that's true...
[16:19] Shizuru
    Why are you doing all this?
[16:21] Shizuru
    You're just bullying the weak.
[16:23] Boss
    I've always... liked bases.
[16:27] Shizuru
    What?
[16:28] Boss
    Aren't they awesome?
[16:29] Boss
    They've got fighter jets, choppers,
    and all sorts of vehicles.
[16:33] Boss
    I've always been a fan,
    but I could never tell anyone.
[16:36] Boss
    But, you know, I made some friends
    for the very first time.
[16:38] Boss
    And I told them I wanted to work at a base.
[16:41] Boss
    That got a round of laughs.
[16:43] Boss
    They said there's no way.
    That I wasn't smart or athletic enough.
[16:49] Boss
    And then the 7G stuff happened,
    and I came here.
[16:52] Boss
    I bet you think it's stupid,
    or that I'm crazy.
[16:57] Boss
    Hey.
[16:58] Boss
    Why are you crying?
[16:59] Shizuru
    It's nothing.
[17:02] Shizuru
    Have you ever been to Ikebukuro?
[17:05] Boss
    What?
[17:05] Boss
    You're going to Ikebukuro?!
[17:07] Boss
    That's asking for trouble!
[17:08] Boss
    Don't put yourself in danger.
    Just stay here with me.
[17:11] Boss
    Yeah? Yeah?
[17:13] Boss
    By the way...
[17:15] Boss
    If you decide to stay here,
    I don't mind letting your friends go...
[17:24] Reimi
    Hand over Shizuru-chan and your mushrooms!
[17:26] Boss
    This is why I can't stand gyaru!
[17:33] Reimi
    Give up already, you jerk!
[17:36] Boss
    Shut up, shut up, shut up!
[17:37] Boss
    Stupid ginormous gyaru!
[17:38] Boss
    I won't hand my base over to you!
[17:55] Reimi
    What?
[18:11] (Flashback) Akira
    Here.
[18:13] (Flashback) Akira
    Sorry about your textbook.
[18:15] (Flashback) Reimi
    Whoa!
[18:16] (Flashback) Reimi
    It's fine!

    This isn't looking good!

    Yeah, it sure isn't.

    Hey, hey, hey, hey!

    You morons! Help!
[18:36] Boss
    Help me!
[19:49] Reimi
    Huh?
[19:50] Reimi
    Did I do it again?
[19:53] Shizuru
    You did it again.
[20:02] Akira
    It tastes yucky!
[20:04] Akira
    Please, no more!
[20:05] Akira
    Hm-hm-hmph!
[20:08] Makoto
    Didn't work, huh?

    There's a deserted island on Sayama Lake,
    which grew humongous from 7G.
[21:18] Boss
    Put me down, damn it!
[21:18] Makoto
    It won't prove easy to escape from there.
[21:20] Boss
    Don't leave me in that empty place!
[21:24] Makoto
    I'm off to find Zenjiro.

    We might find a way to improve
    this state of affairs.

    What about here?

    We've decided to form our

    Be careful. You don't know what's out there.

    I guess that goes for us as well.

    What?
[00:08] Shizuru
    I don't know about that name.
[00:10] Akira
    No way.
[00:11] Reimi
    Why not?
[00:11] Reimi
    What's wrong with the Glorious Angel?
[00:14] Akira
    It sounds skanky.
[00:15] Akira
    And totally brainless.
[00:16] Reimi
    Call it ritzy, at least!
[00:18] Reimi
    If you're so picky, you suggest something.
[00:20] Akira
    What?
[00:21] Akira
    How about... the Ātman?
[00:24] Reimi
    The heck is that?
[00:25] Nadeshiko
    What about something simple,
    like the Ikebukuro Express?
[00:28] Reimi
    Right to the point.
[00:29] Shizuru
    Makes it sound faster than it is, though.
[00:32] Nadeshiko
    Do you have any ideas, Shizuru?
[00:35] Shizuru
    Maybe... the Apogee?
[00:37] Reimi
    The what G?
[00:38] Akira
    Apogee.
[00:39] Akira
    The farthest point that the moon
    or a satellite reaches from Earth.
[00:43] Nadeshiko
    Huh...
[00:44] Reimi
    Pretty snazzy.
[00:45] Reimi
    Apogee sounds good to me.
[00:46] Reimi
    Okay.
[00:47] Reimi
    Starting today, you're the Apogee.
[00:49] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan, you're interested
    in stars and outer space?
[00:52] Akira
    News to me.
[00:54] Shizuru
    Not me. Yoka.
[00:56] Nadeshiko
    Yoka-chan?
[00:58] Shizuru
    She taught me the word.
[01:00] Reimi
    That's still a surprise.
[01:01] Reimi
    Yoka-chan seemed like she'd be into
    picture books or cutesy stuff.
[01:06] Nadeshiko
    On that note, why did she go off to Ikebukuro?
[01:09] Nadeshiko
    All by her lonesome, too.
[01:11] Reimi
    I know, right?
[01:12] Reimi
    That's what I've been wondering.
[01:14] Akira
    Yoka-chan didn't seem at all like
    someone who'd do stuff on her own.
[01:18] Nadeshiko
    That's right.
[01:19] Nadeshiko
    And yet she wandered off
    to Ikebukuro all alone.
[01:22] Nadeshiko
    That's what's weird—
    or, well, hard to explain.
[01:24] Akira
    It's a bit of an enigma.
[01:26] Nadeshiko
    Hmm...
[01:27] Reimi
    What else is there in Ikebukuro?
[01:29] Akira
    They have bookstores,
    an arts theater, an aquarium...
[01:33] Reimi
    Huh, would she go to any of those?
[01:35] Akira
    Doesn't fit my image of her at all.
[01:37] Reimi
    Yeah, right?
[01:38] Reimi
    Yoka-chan was the type to fit in
    but never really take charge.
[01:42] Reimi
    She always hung out in the back with a smile.
[01:44] Nadeshiko
    Maybe we didn't really know
    much about Yoka-chan at all.
[01:50] Reimi
    Stop it, Nadeko-chan!
[01:51] Reimi
    That's too sad to think about!

[03:56] Shizuru
    He's fine.
[04:01] Akira
    What if something's wrong with Pochi-san?
[04:03] Reimi
    We need him to look for Yoka-chan
    when we get to Ikebukuro.
[04:07] Reimi
    He's the only one who can pick up on her scent.
[04:10] Akira
    Which is why we need him to stay healthy!
[04:14] Nadeshiko
    How old is Pochi-san again?
[04:15] Reimi
    Pochi-san's been around ever
    since we were kids, right?
[04:20] Nadeshiko
    That'd make him around 13 or 14 years old?

    Whoa, he's a real grandpa!

    It's fine, it's fine.
[04:42] Shizuru
    He's probably just fine.

    Shizuru-chan, that wasn't very convincing.
[04:47] Nadeshiko
    Aren't you worried about him?
[04:48] Nadeshiko
    You were the one who brought him along.
[04:51] Shizuru
    Hey, hold it.
[04:52] Shizuru
    I didn't drag him along or anything.

    Pochi-san decided to follow me.

    This again?
[04:58] Nadeshiko
    Do you want to say that you didn't
    drag us into all of this—
[05:03] Nadeshiko
    that we decided to follow you here?
[05:05] Nadeshiko
    Maybe you're right, but that's
    a little insensitive.
[05:08] Nadeshiko
    I shouldn't have to tell you again.

    Um...
[05:11] Nadeshiko
    Tell me, Shizuru-chan.
[05:13] Nadeshiko
    Why did Yoka-chan go to Ikebukuro?
[05:15] Shizuru
    What?

    I think you must have an idea.

    Why ask that now?

    Is now a bad time to ask?
[05:22] Nadeshiko
    Why?

[05:32] Shizuru
    I don't want to talk about it.

    or did something to her.

[05:49] Nadeshiko
    You did something to her, right?

    doing that for a living.
[06:56] (Flashback) Shizuru
    How do you even come up with that?
[06:58] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Honestly, though?
[06:59] (Flashback) Shizuru
    It doesn't sound very realistic to me.
[07:02] (Flashback) Yoka
    Realistic?
[07:03] (Flashback) Shizuru
    All that stuff.
[07:05] (Flashback) Yoka
    All that stuff...
[07:06] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I mean, we're just regular folks.
[07:09] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I figure that kinda stuff is best saved
    for people who are more exceptional.
[07:13] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Oh, I'm not trying to make
    fun of you or anything.
[07:16] (Flashback) Shizuru
    But this is some real far-fetched stuff
    you're talking about.

    Is it really?

    Totally!

    with such high hopes.
[07:30] (Flashback) Shizuru
    You need to accept reality
    and compromise a little.
[07:33] (Flashback) Shizuru
    C'mon, now!
[07:34] (Flashback) Shizuru
    How about something more normal?
[07:36] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Normal's all you'll ever be,
[07:37] (Flashback) Shizuru
    so do you really need to worry about
    all this exceptional-people stuff?
[07:41] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I mean, I think it's great that
    you're thinking about all that,
[07:44] (Flashback) Shizuru
    but it'll be rough when you don't make it.
[07:46] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Like, you gotta know
    you've got no chance, right?
[07:48] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Well, not like I would either.
[07:50] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Guess we're the same.
[07:53] (Flashback) Shizuru
    What's up?
[07:54] (Flashback) Yoka
    What do you mean?
[07:56] (Flashback) Shizuru
    You suddenly went quiet.
[07:57] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Did I say something weird?
[08:00] (Flashback) Yoka
    Not really.
[08:01] (Flashback) Yoka
    It's just that now I get it.
[08:02] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Get what, exactly?
[08:04] (Flashback) Shizuru
    If you have a problem with what
    I said, say it to my face!
[08:08] (Flashback) Yoka
    You're entitled to your opinion.
[08:09] (Flashback) Shizuru
    You're really pushing me away, huh?
[08:12] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Insensitive much?
[08:13] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I don't think I said anything wrong here.
[08:19] (Flashback) Yoka
    I see now.
[08:21] (Flashback) Yoka
    So that's what you're like, Shizuru.
[08:23] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Huh?
[08:24] (Flashback) Shizuru
    What's that supposed to mean?
[08:26] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I could say the same about you, Yoka!
[08:29] (Flashback) Yoka
    That's right.
[08:30] (Flashback) Yoka
    This is how I am.
[08:33] (Flashback) Yoka
    Sorry!
[08:35] (Flashback) Shizuru
    What are you sorry about?!
[08:37] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I don't care about you anymore, Yoka!
[08:41] Reimi
    I think you're to blame here, Shizuru-chan.
[08:44] Reimi
    I'd feel so awful and angry
    if you put me down like that.
[08:47] Akira
    Especially for laughing
    at the things I like.
[08:50] Shizuru
    I know—
[08:51] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan already realizes
    that she said some awful things.
[08:56] Shizuru
    Did I really?
[08:58] Shizuru
    Was what I said that awful?
[09:00] Reimi
    Well, that's the whole reason Yoka-chan
    went to Ikebukuro on her own, isn't it?
[09:04] Akira
    Why Ikebukuro, though?
[09:06] Reimi
    Beats me. I wonder why.
[09:08] Reimi
    Hey, why Ikebukuro?
[09:10] Shizuru
    I don't know.
[09:11] Akira
    But your fight is the reason
    Yoka-chan ran away from Agano.
[09:15] Akira
    I don't think you can deny that.
[09:17] Nadeshiko
    Even if you don't think
    you said anything wrong,
[09:20] Nadeshiko
    if Yoka-chan ended up being
    hurt by it, then that's wrong.
[09:24] Akira
    Hold on.
[09:26] Akira
    Shizuru-chan, don't you want to find
    Yoka-chan and apologize to her?
[09:29] Shizuru
    Still...
[09:30] Shizuru
    Isn't Yoka just as bad for leaving
    without so much as a word?
[09:35] Reimi
    Well, let's just say both of you
    are partly to blame.
[09:39] Nadeshiko
    I can't say much, since this
    is a matter between you two,
[09:42] Nadeshiko
    but I'm disappointed that you
    couldn't tell us this until now.
[09:46] Reimi
    Oh, yeah!
[09:48] Reimi
    Yep.
[09:48] Reimi
    I'm not sure why you kept it a secret from us.
[09:51] Akira
    A sense of guilt?
[09:52] Shizuru
    Not really.
[09:53] Shizuru
    It's not like I dragged you
    all out here with me.
[09:56] Nadeshiko
    There you go again!
[09:57] Reimi
    Really?!
[09:58] Akira
    Don't give us that!
[09:59] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan, do you think of us
    as a bother for tagging along?
[10:03] Nadeshiko
    I thought we all wanted to go
    to Ikebukuro together.
[10:05] Nadeshiko
    Are you saying you don't feel that way?
[10:07] Shizuru
    I just wanted to go to Ikebukuro. That's all.
[10:11] Nadeshiko
    All by yourself, you mean?
[10:14] Shizuru
    Yeah, maybe!
[10:15] Reimi
    What? Seriously?!
[10:16] Akira
    A little late for that!
[10:18] Shizuru
    Okay, sorry. You're right.
[10:20] Shizuru
    Yeah, maybe I'm better off alone.
[10:22] Shizuru
    Maybe we're all better off.
[10:25] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan, what are you doing?
[10:27] Shizuru
    Leaving.
[10:28] Shizuru
    I'll go by myself.
[10:29] Group
    What?!
[10:29] Shizuru
    Sorry.
[10:31] Reimi
    Wait, right now?!
[10:33] Akira
    It's dark outside!
[10:35] Reimi
    Hey!
[10:36] Reimi
    Stop her, Nadeko-chan!
[10:37] Reimi
    She's going off by herself!
[10:40] Nadeshiko
    Maybe she just needs to calm down.
[10:42] Akira
    What?
[10:43] Akira
    You're going to let her go?
[10:44] Nadeshiko
    Would forcing her to come back
    really be better?
[10:47] Akira
    Well...
[10:48] Nadeshiko
    She needs time to cool off.
[10:50] Nadeshiko
    And so do we.
[10:56] Reimi
    Pochi-san?
[10:57] Akira
    You're going with Shizuru-chan?
[10:59] Reimi
    What? Don't go!
[11:01] Akira
    Pochi-san will do something
    about Shizuru-chan.
[11:05] Reimi
    Really?
[11:12] Shizuru
    Pochi-san.
[11:14] Shizuru
    Go back with the others.
[11:15] Shizuru
    They'll say I dragged you along with me again.
[11:19] Shizuru
    Guess they didn't say that.
[11:21] Shizuru
    I'm fine, really.
[11:23] Shizuru
    You're here of your own will!
[11:26] Shizuru
    I'm insensitive, you know!
[11:30] Nadeshiko
    Let's eat dinner.
[11:31] Reimi
    I don't get it.
[11:32] Reimi
    How can you stay so calm, Nadeko-chan?!
[11:35] Nadeshiko
    Reimi-chan.
[11:36] Nadeshiko
    I won't answer you if you're just trying
    to take your anger out on me.
[11:42] Reimi
    I'm sorry.
[11:44] Reimi
    It was about 65% anger,
    but 35% of me really wants to know.
[11:49] Nadeshiko
    Think about it.
[11:50] Nadeshiko
    The only way to get to Ikebukuro
    is along the train tracks.
[11:54] Nadeshiko
    And there's only one set of tracks.
[11:56] Nadeshiko
    As long as we follow this path,
    we're sure to catch up to Shizuru-chan.
[11:59] Reimi
    Oh, you're right!
[12:00] Akira
    Nadeko-chan.
[12:02] Akira
    You looked really scary there for a moment.
[12:03] Nadeshiko
    What? Really?
[12:08] Nadeshiko
    Let's eat up so we can all feel better.
[12:10] Reimi
    Time to dig in!
[12:14] Reimi
    You know what?
[12:15] Reimi
    When it comes down to it,
    the Apogee here is Shizuru-chan's train.
[12:19] Akira
    She could have called it the Perigee.
[12:21] Reimi
    The what G?
[12:22] Akira
    Perigee.
[12:23] Akira
    Apogee is when the moon is
    farthest away from the Earth,
[12:27] Akira
    and perigee is when it's the closest.
[12:28] Nadeshiko
    The distance between
    Shizuru-chan and Yoka-chan?
[12:30] Akira
    I can't say for sure.
[12:32] Akira
    But since we're on our way to meet her,
[12:34] Akira
    giving it a faraway name, instead
    of a close one, feels a bit wrong.
[12:38] Reimi
    A little, yeah.
[12:40] Reimi
    More rice!
[12:41] Akira
    What? That was quick!
[12:43] Reimi
    Yay! First come, first served!
[12:44] Akira
    You'll get fat.
[12:45] Reimi
    What?
[12:46] Nadeshiko
    Don't be mean to her!
[12:55] Shizuru
    I don't want to take the long way.
[12:58] Shizuru
    Shortcut time!
[13:01] Shizuru
    Next stop is Kiyose, huh?
[13:02] Shizuru
    We'll get there in no time.
[13:04] Shizuru
    We need to hurry as much
    as we can to Ikebukuro.
[13:08] Nadeshiko
    We'll stay here for the night,
[13:10] Nadeshiko
    and set off tomorrow in the morning.
[13:12] Reimi
    It'll be awkward if we catch up
    to Shizuru-chan right away.
[13:16] Akira
    For all of us.
[13:19] Reimi
    I forgive Shizuru-chan.
[13:22] Akira
    What's this now?
[13:23] Reimi
    We're friends, aren't we?
[13:25] Akira
    Does that mean Yoka-chan's not her friend,
    because they never made up?
[13:29] Reimi
    Huh? Um...
[13:31] Nadeshiko
    That's not right.
[13:32] Nadeshiko
    Fighting and making up
    are both part of being friends.
[13:35] Akira
    But you stop seeing each other
    if you never make up.
[13:39] Akira
    Are you still friends?
[13:40] Akira
    Even if you never see each other again?
[13:43] Reimi
    No more, no more!
[13:44] Reimi
    Thinking about hard stuff right before bed
    will give you nightmares!
[13:48] Shizuru
    That's weird.
[13:50] Shizuru
    We should have been out of there
    in an hour or so,
[13:53] Shizuru
    but we've been climbing for three hours.
[13:54] Shizuru
    Is it supposed to take this long?
[13:56] Shizuru
    No way, right?
[13:58] Shizuru
    Pochi-san.
[13:59] Shizuru
    Where's your response?
[14:00] Shizuru
    If I talk to myself, that just
    makes me a weirdo.
[14:06] Shizuru
    I'm stupid.
[14:08] Shizuru
    Why am I so stupid?
[14:11] Shizuru
    Would it be best to go back?
[14:13] Shizuru
    Should I?
[14:20] Shizuru
    I've made up my mind.
[14:21] Shizuru
    Let's go back.
[14:24] Shizuru
    Huh?
[14:26] Shizuru
    Which way was it again?
[14:30] Shizuru
    When you find yourself lost,
    the number-one rule is to climb up, not down!
[14:43] Shizuru
    Pochi-san?
[14:46] Shizuru
    What's that weird smell?
[14:53] Shizuru
    Hey, Pochi...
[14:54] Shizuru
    Huh?
[14:56] Shizuru
    Poch—
[15:07] Shizuru
    Seriously?!
[15:09] Shizuru
    Pochi-san!
[15:12] Shizuru
    Where are you all from?!
[15:14] Shizuru
    Is it Kiyose?!
[15:22] Shizuru
    Don't mess with Agano jiu-jitsu!
[15:26] Shizuru
    Pochi-san!
[15:33] Shizuru
    Hey! Go away!
[15:34] Shizuru
    Shut up!
[15:40] Kuroki
    Halt.
[15:50] Kuroki
    The first one in ages.
[15:56] Kuroki
    Let's bring her along.
[16:00] Shizuru
    Hey, hold it right there!
[16:02] Kuroki
    Pipe down.
[16:11] Akira
    I don't see her.
[16:12] Nadeshiko
    Did we miss her somewhere?
[16:14] Nadeshiko
    Maybe we passed her.
[16:16] Reimi
    We've been going pretty slowly, though.
[16:18] Akira
    We have.
[16:19] Akira
    Nadeko-chan, what if Shizuru-chan
    strayed from the tracks?
[16:23] Akira
    And if she did, where did it happen?
[16:26] Reimi
    Yeah, where?
[16:27] Akira
    I'm the one asking here.
[16:28] Reimi
    It's not like I know, either.
[16:30] Reimi
    Should we go back?
[16:32] Akira
    What?!
[16:32] Reimi
    Keep going, then?
[16:34] Akira
    We've come pretty far since morning.
[16:35] Reimi
    Nadeko-chan said to calm down, right?
[16:38] Reimi
    What if Shizuru-chan
    calmed down and came back?
[16:41] Akira
    Back where?
[16:41] Reimi
    Where we were when she ran off.
[16:43] Akira
    Who would run off and then come right back?
[16:45] Reimi
    You never know, do you?
[16:47] Akira
    We're talking about Shizuru-chan.
[16:48] Reimi
    Ah...
[16:49] Reimi
    We don't know whether Shizuru-chan
    would follow the tracks to begin with.
[16:53] Nadeshiko
    The roads are more dangerous
    than the tracks.
[16:56] Reimi
    Yeah...
[16:57] Reimi
    But this is Shizuru-chan
    we're talking about.
[17:02] Reimi
    Huh? Huh?
[17:03] Akira
    What?
[17:03] Reimi
    Be quiet!
[17:04] Akira
    What now?!
[17:09] Nadeshiko
    No way!
[17:11] Akira
    It's the Black Leopard caravan!
[17:12] Akira
    It's Neko-nii and his crew!
[17:19] Kuroki
    What's your name?
[17:20] Shizuru
    Chikura Shizuru.
[17:22] Shizuru
    A second-year at Agano High School.
[17:23] Kuroki
    Agano High, huh?
[17:24] Kuroki
    I'm Kuroki Mito.
[17:26] Kuroki
    You can call me Kuroki-san.
[17:28] Shizuru
    Kuroki...san, you're a zombie, right?
[17:31] Kuroki
    What's this now?
[17:32] Shizuru
    Ah, well...
[17:33] Shizuru
    Just wondering why you're
    the only one who can talk.
[17:39] Kuroki
    Why can I talk, you ask?
    Because I'm the queen of the zombies.
[17:43] Shizuru
    The queen of the zombies?!
[17:45] Neko
    Ikebukuro by train?
[17:47] Neko
    What a reckless idea.
[17:49] Reimi
    Hey, Neko-nii-san.
[17:50] Reimi
    Do you have any more news for us?
[17:51] Reimi
    The latest Ikebukuro news.
[17:53] Neko
    The latest I have is pretty old now.
[17:57] Neko
    And it's all second-hand.
[17:58] Reimi
    That's totally fine.
[18:00] Neko
    Well, Agano's pretty weird,
    but Ikebukuro's even worse.
[18:04] Neko
    Like being stretched out into billboards,
    or turned into egg custard and steamed.
[18:08] Akira
    What?
[18:09] Reimi
    You're not making any sense.
[18:11] Neko
    I figured you'd say that.
[18:12] Nadeshiko
    Um...
[18:12] Nadeshiko
    Is it true that the world outside of the
    Seibu Ikebukuro line doesn't exist?
[18:17] Neko
    I can't say for certain,
    since I haven't looked into it myself.
[18:21] Neko
    That said, I can't deny the possibility.
[18:23] Neko
    Especially with what I've heard from
    those searching for other rail lines.
[18:26] Nadeshiko
    You'll be looping back
    around after this, right?
[18:30] Neko
    Huh? Yeah.
[18:31] Nadeshiko
    If you see Shizuru-chan in a town,
    or while moving as a caravan,
[18:34] Nadeshiko
    tell her she can come back any time,
    and that we'll be waiting.
[18:39] Neko
    That's fine by me... if I can find her.
[18:42] Reimi
    Hey, can't you be a little more confident?
[18:44] Neko
    I'm sure you've all seen already,
[18:47] Neko
    but 7G turned the world into
    an incredibly vast expanse.
[18:51] Neko
    The possibility of running
    into a specific person...
[18:54] Neko
    Ikebukuro's a gauntlet, but this
    area shows signs of danger, too.
[18:58] Neko
    You girls should leave as soon as you can.
[19:00] Nadeshiko
    What's the danger?
[19:01] Neko
    Zombies.
[19:03] Akira
    You mean corpses of the undead variety?
[19:05] Akira
    We've just received eyewitness
    reports of migratory zombies.
[19:09] Reimi
    Migratory zombies?
[19:11] Kuroki
    Zombies are surprisingly fragile.
[19:13] Kuroki
    They rot in the heat
    and freeze and snap in the cold.
SIGN    Extra-Strong
    Deodorizer
    Fefreze
[19:16] Kuroki
    They get mushy in the rain,
    but they can't dry out too much, either.
[19:21] Shizuru
    Makes sense.
[19:22] Kuroki
    That's why they're constantly on the move,
    searching for the perfect climate and soil.
[19:27] Shizuru
    I see.
[19:28] Kuroki
    I act as their compass.
[19:30] Kuroki
    As the queen, I have a duty to lead them.
[19:33] Shizuru
    I understand now.
SIGN    Offerings
[19:35] Kuroki
    You seem listless.
[19:36] Kuroki
    Are you hungry?
[19:37] Shizuru
    Huh? Yes, I suppose.
[19:40] Kuroki
    For now, give her a part to eat.
[19:42] Shizuru
    A part?
[19:44] Shizuru
    Huh? P-Part?
[19:46] Kuroki
    Eat up.
[19:47] Kuroki
    Help yourself.
[19:49] Shizuru
    Oh, um...
[19:50] Shizuru
    I try to avoid stuff like beef jerky
    because it gets stuck in my teeth.
[19:54] Kuroki
    I see.
[19:55] Kuroki
    What about you?
[19:56] Kuroki
    Want some?
[20:00] Kuroki
    Guess he doesn't.
[20:04] Shizuru
    So does it taste like dried meat?
[20:07] Kuroki
    I wouldn't know.
[20:08] Kuroki
    I've never had any.
[20:10] Shizuru
    What?
[20:10] Kuroki
    I'm the queen.
[20:12] Kuroki
    I have my own special diet.
SIGN    Yasaka's
       Corned Beef
[20:15] Neko
    Sorry I can't join you.
[20:17] Neko
    I've got my own work to do.
[20:19] Nadeshiko
    Oh, no! It's fine.
[20:20] Neko
    Be careful.
[20:22] Neko
    If you run into zombies,
    the best thing to do is just stay still.
[20:25] Neko
    The trick I mentioned is
    nothing more than a theory.
[20:30] Group
    Zombies...
[20:32] Reimi
    Those things, right?
[20:32] Reimi
    Drooping eyeballs, rotting flesh,
    eats brains, bites people?
[20:36] Akira
    That's pretty much it.
[20:37] Nadeshiko
    If you get bitten by a zombie,
    you turn into one?
[20:39] Akira
    Usually, yeah.
[20:40] Reimi
    What do we do if Shizuru becomes a zombie?
[20:43] Akira
    You see pretty smart ones nowadays
[20:45] Akira
    that retain their personality
    from before they died.
[20:48] Reimi
    So they don't attack?
[20:49] Akira
    They do.
[20:51] Reimi
    Neko-nii-san!
[20:53] Reimi
    We should go with Neko-nii-san!
[20:55] Reimi
    We might still be able to catch up!
[20:57] Akira
    Wait, what about Shizuru-chan?!
[20:59] Reimi
    If Shizuru-chan's a zombie, being with
    Neko-nii-san would be better and safer!
[21:03] Nadeshiko
    Reimi-chan, are you saying you'd abandon
    Shizuru-chan if she was a zombie?
[21:07] Nadeshiko
    She wouldn't be your friend anymore?
[21:09] Reimi
    She's my friend but also a zombie!
[21:11] Akira
    She's a zombie but also our friend!
[21:13] Akira
    She'd still be our friend
    as a zombie... I think.
[21:18] Reimi
    You know...
[21:19] Reimi
    If a woman's dating
    a terrible guy and she says,
[21:22] Reimi
    "He's a good person, when he's
    not gambling or drinking"...
[21:26] Reimi
    You know how everyone responds,
    "He does drink, which makes him bad"?
[21:32] Reimi
    Is that what we're talking about here?
[21:35] Nadeshiko
    No...
[21:36] Akira
    Not really.
[21:38] Nadeshiko
    Actually, it's the opposite!
[21:39] Nadeshiko
    "He's such a slob, but I love him!"
[21:41] Nadeshiko
    Or, "He's so selfish, but I forgive him!"
[21:43] Reimi
    You mean like, "She's such a zombie, 
    but she's still my friend"?
[21:48] Reimi
    "Shizuru-chan said all those awful things,
    but she's still my friend!"
[21:52] Reimi
    Do you think that's what Yoka-chan thinks?
[21:54] Nadeshiko
    She does.
[21:56] Nadeshiko
    I'm sure she does.
[21:58] Akira
    We'll need to bring Shizuru-chan
    to Yoka-chan to find out!
[22:01] Reimi
    Yeah!

[00:01] Shizuru
    H-Hold it right there!
[00:04] Shizuru
    Where are you taking me?
[00:06] Kuroki
    That way.
[00:08] Shizuru
    How many zombies are there 
    in this flock... swarm... pack?!
[00:13] Kuroki
    Dunno.
[00:14] Kuroki
    I've never counted.
[00:15] Shizuru
    They used to be people, right?
[00:17] Shizuru
    And they turned into zombies after 7G?
[00:20] Kuroki
    Who knows?
[00:20] Shizuru
    "Who knows"?!
[00:22] Shizuru
    What are they going to do with me?
[00:23] Kuroki
    Eat you...
[00:25] Shizuru
    What?!
[00:25] Kuroki
    I think? I mean, they're zombies.
[00:27] Shizuru
    The heck?!
[00:28] Shizuru
    I saw you eating canned food!
[00:30] Shizuru
    That doesn't seem right to me!
[00:31] Kuroki
    I can't provide for every last zombie here.
[00:34] Shizuru
    You're the queen, aren't you?!
[00:36] Shizuru
    At least keep your subjects under control!
[00:38] Shizuru
    Also, my panties are going
    to be in full view here!
[00:40] Kuroki
    Panties...
[00:40] Shizuru
    Hey!
[00:43] Kuroki
    If you promise not to run away,
    I'll untie you.
[00:46] Shizuru
    I won't run.
[00:47] Kuroki
    You swear?
[00:48] Shizuru
    I swear!
[00:50] Kuroki
    Untie her.
[00:52] Kuroki
    We'll make her walk.
SIGN    Train to the End of the World
[02:27] Nadeshiko
    Looks good.
[02:28] Nadeshiko
    We'll be able to spot it from a distance.
[02:31] Akira
    Make sure you stay close by!
[02:33] Akira
    Or else you're good as dead!
[02:35] Reimi
    Yeah, Akira.
[02:37] Reimi
    You always run off on your own.
[02:38] Akira
    I was talking about you!
[02:39] Nadeshiko
    Okay, let's get going.
SIGN    Episode 7       A Zombie That Laughs Is No Zombie at All
[02:41] Nadeshiko
    Off we go!
[02:45] Reimi
    Wait, how do we find Shizuru-chan?
[02:47] Reimi
    And what if the zombies already got her?
[02:50] Akira
    Zombies come out at night.
[02:51] Reimi
    Ah.
[02:52] Akira
    Zombies have bad eyesight.
[02:54] Reimi
    Guess that makes sense.
[02:56] Akira
    Zombies love brains.
[02:57] Reimi
    What?
[02:58] Akira
    That's why...
SIGN    Aluminum Foil
[03:00] Akira
    You take this, and do this...
[03:02] Akira
    and make a fake brain.
[03:04] Group
    What?
[03:05] Akira
    Zombies can't resist brains.
[03:07] Akira
    If they see a brain, they'll approach it.
[03:09] Akira
    So if anything happens,
    throw the brain to buy some time.
[03:22] Reimi
    That didn't buy us any time!
[03:24] Reimi
    In fact, it attracted them!
[03:25] Akira
    Don't make any sudden movements!
[03:27] Nadeshiko
    What?!
[03:27] Akira
    Zombies can't tell you apart
    if you pretend to be one of them.
[03:30] Akira
    Zombies move slowly.
[03:32] Akira
    Zombies... don't scream.
[03:47] Reimi
    They're onto us.
[03:48] Reimi
    They're totally onto us!
[03:50] Akira
    I'll distract them.
[03:54] Reimi
    Way too close!
[03:55] Akira
    Shut up!
[03:59] Nadeshiko
    Akira-chan, Reimi-chan.
[04:01] Nadeshiko
    Now's our chance.
[04:13] Nadeshiko
    Patience. Be patient.
[04:14] Reimi
    I know, but will this really work?
[04:17] Akira
    Zombies don't attack their own.
[04:18] Reimi
    Yeah, but will paint really fool them...
[04:25] Reimi
    It did!
[04:28] Nadeshiko
    Let's move slowly away.
[04:29] Akira
    Sounds good.
[04:37] Reimi
    Is that Shizuru-chan's?
[04:43] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan's totally a zombie now.
[04:45] Nadeshiko
    We don't know that for sure.
[04:47] Reimi
    What if Shizuru-chan can't think
    about anything except eating brains?
[04:52] Akira
    Forgetting all about Yoka-chan?
[04:53] Nadeshiko
    No. That won't happen.
[04:55] Nadeshiko
    It'll be fine.
[05:06] Akira
    A palanquin?
[05:08] Reimi
    Oh, I see her.
[05:09] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan's there.
[05:10] Reimi
    Pochi-san, too.
[05:11] Akira
    Turning blue?
[05:12] Reimi
    Brown.
[05:13] Akira
    Brown?
[05:14] Akira
    So the rotting's begun?
[05:16] Reimi
    Nope, fluffy as ever.
[05:17] Akira
    Huh?
[05:17] Reimi
    Pochi-san, right?
[05:19] Akira
    No, the human! Shizuru-chan!
[05:21] Reimi
    Her face looks normal to me.
[05:24] Nadeshiko
    Yeah, it does.
[05:25] Akira
    So she's not a zombie yet?
[05:27] Reimi
    Then why is she being so obedient?
[05:30] Reimi
    You'd think she would go and start trouble.
[05:32] Nadeshiko
    She absolutely would.
[05:34] Reimi
    Oh, she looks surprised.
[05:36] Reimi
    She fell down and landed on her butt.
[05:38] Akira
    I can see that from here.
[05:39] Nadeshiko
    Is she saying something?
[05:41] Nadeshiko
    Hey, Shiz—
[05:42] Akira
    We're in zombie mode! Zombie mode!
[05:45] Reimi
    Huh? Is she itchy?
[05:47] Reimi
    Has she started to turn?
[05:48] Akira
    No.
[05:49] Akira
    I think she's asking if we're
    zombies or still human.
[05:52] Nadeshiko
    Oh, because of our face paint.
[05:53] Reimi
    Nadeko-chan, you look
    the worst with that azure.
[05:56] Nadeshiko
    Azure...
[05:57] Nadeshiko
    It even sounds like a zombie moaning.
[05:59] Akira
    Would "sky blue" be better?
[06:01] Shizuru
    What?
[06:01] Shizuru
    Can't move your eyeballs?
[06:03] Shizuru
    Arms about to fall off?
[06:04] Shizuru
    Need more brains?
[06:05] Shizuru
    Oh, no! Oh, no!
[06:07] Kuroki
    What's wrong?
[06:10] Kuroki
    What's with those three?
[06:15] Kuroki
    Hey!
[06:16] Kuroki
    Huh, your ex-human ex-friends?
[06:19] Reimi
    "Ex"?!
[06:20] Nadeshiko
    "Friends"?!
[06:20] Akira
    "Human"?!
[06:21] Kuroki
    Or are they your human ex-friends?
[06:26] Kuroki
    Or maybe...
[06:27] Kuroki
    Ex-human friends?
[06:29] Kuroki
    Human friends?
[06:31] Shizuru
    Do you really need to sweat the details?
[06:33] Shizuru
    All this ex or not stuff!
[06:34] Kuroki
    Yes, I do!
[06:35] Kuroki
    I won't abide rebellion.
[06:37] Kuroki
    You can still speak, which means either
    you've only just turned into zombies,
[06:41] Kuroki
    or you're just pretending.
[06:44] Kuroki
    Don't feel like answering?
[06:47] Kuroki
    So be it.
[06:48] Kuroki
    Your bodies will tell us
    whether you're really zombies.
[06:51] Reimi
    Our bodies?!
[06:52] Kuroki
    Hey.
[06:53] Kuroki
    Bring the you-know-what.
[06:54] Akira
    An iron maiden?
[06:56] Akira
    A brazen bull?
[06:57] Akira
    A Judas cradle?
[07:02] Nadeshiko
    Udon?!
[07:03] Kuroki
    This is no ordinary udon.
[07:05] Kuroki
    It's a Musashino specialty.
[07:06] Kuroki
    Thick noodles simmered in miso
    with seasonal veggies and pork.
[07:10] Kuroki
    A toothsome, country-style udon.
[07:13] Kuroki
    Shake a bit of shichimi pepper on here...
[07:20] Kuroki
    Chew down on the springy noodles
    and slurp the broth,
[07:25] Kuroki
    with bites of pork in between...
[07:26] Shizuru
    Eating all by yourself again?
[07:28] Kuroki
    I'm special because I'm the queen.
[07:31] Kuroki
    Zombies usually don't have any appetite.
[07:35] Kuroki
    You didn't show any reaction
    to the simmered udon.
[07:38] Kuroki
    It looks like you really are zombies.
[07:40] Reimi
    Uh-huh. We're zombies, all right.
[07:42] Akira
    We come in zombie peace.
[07:44] Kuroki
    I still can't say with complete confidence.
[08:03] Reimi
    Ah, you died again!
[08:05] Akira
    You suck.
[08:08] Kuroki
    Even so, I'm the queen, so I don't
    need to let anyone else have a turn.
[08:12] Nadeshiko
    No.
[08:13] Nadeshiko
    It's a snap of the wrist to reload...
[08:15] Kuroki
    What was that?
[08:17] Nadeshiko
    Ah, so frustrating...
[08:18] Kuroki
    Frustrating?
[08:19] Kuroki
    Zombies don't fret.
[08:21] Kuroki
    Thus, they don't get frustrated.
[08:22] Nadeshiko
    I'm not.
[08:24] Kuroki
    Really?
[08:25] Kuroki
    Wanna try?
[08:26] Nadeshiko
    I... won't!
[08:28] Nadeshiko
    Zombies don't play games.
[08:30] Kuroki
    What if the queen commands you to?
[08:33] Nadeshiko
    Why, you!
[08:34] Nadeshiko
    Damn it!
[08:36] Nadeshiko
    Eat this!
[08:37] Nadeshiko
    Headshot!
[08:39] Reimi
    Nadeko-chan's like a whole different person
    when she plays games.
[08:42] Akira
    And when she holds a bow.
[08:44] Reimi
    She'd be unstoppable
    if she had a bow in the game.
[08:46] Nadeshiko
    Die, damn it!
[08:49] Nadeshiko
    Hell yes!
[08:50] Nadeshiko
    Stupid zombies!
[08:51] Kuroki
    You're pretty good at this.
[08:55] Nadeshiko
    All thanks to you.
[08:57] Kuroki
    You have pretty fast reactions for a zombie.
[09:02] Shizuru
    That's because, you know...
[09:03] Shizuru
    She still has her reflexes,
    since she only just turned into a zombie.
[09:06] Shizuru
    Right?
[09:07] Nadeshiko
    Yes, yes!
[09:12] Kuroki
    Zombies don't laugh.
[09:14] Kuroki
    A zombie that laughs is no zombie at all.
[09:18] Kuroki
    Which means...
[09:19] Group
    Which means?
[09:21] Kuroki
    You're human.
[09:24] Kuroki
    Tie them up!
[09:25] Shizuru
    Stop it!
[09:27] Kuroki
    If you're on their side,
    that makes you an enemy, too!
[09:30] Kuroki
    I'll eat all your brains!
[09:31] Shizuru
    Just try it!
[09:40] Shizuru
    Hi-yah!
[09:46] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan!
[09:47] Akira
    Wow.
[09:49] Nadeshiko
    Ah, it came off.
[09:50] Reimi
    Are these guys actually super weak?
[09:52] Akira
    Maybe we can win this.
[09:55] Nadeshiko
    That's amazing, Akira-chan!
[09:57] Reimi
    She's scared of ghosts,
    but she can handle zombies just fine.
[10:00] Nadeshiko
    Take this!
[10:08] Shizuru
    We can do this!
[10:17] Shizuru
    How?!
[10:21] Akira
    They stuck back together!
[10:23] Shizuru
    What the heck?
[10:24] Reimi
    Endless zombies!
[10:25] Kuroki
    Zombies don't die.
[10:27] Shizuru
    Not fair!
[10:27] Kuroki
    That's just how their bodily systems work.
[10:29] Kuroki
    Nothing unfair about it.
[10:30] Nadeshiko
    System? Stim...
[10:33] Neko
    We've just received eyewitness
    reports of migratory zombies.
[10:37] (Flashback) Reimi
    Migratory zombies?
[10:39] (Flashback) Neko
    They're a real pain in the neck.
[10:41] (Flashback) Neko
    However much you beat them,
    they keep coming back.
[10:43] (Flashback) Neko
    They're weak but never die.
[10:44] (Flashback) Reimi
    How are you supposed to deal with that?
[10:48] (Flashback) Neko
    I haven't confirmed it, but it seems
    zombies are weak to stimulation.
[10:51] (Flashback) Group
    Stimulation?
[10:52] (Flashback) Nadeshiko
    You mean, like, from living things?
[10:55] (Flashback) Reimi
    They attack humans, don't they?
[10:56] (Flashback) Neko
    Well, you shouldn't take it too seriously.
[10:59] (Flashback) Neko
    Yep.
[11:00] (Flashback) Akira
    Are you talking about sexual
    or erotic stimulation?
[11:03] (Flashback) Nadeshiko
    Akira-chan!
[11:04] (Flashback) Reimi
    Ew, are you saying zombies are pervs?
[11:06] (Flashback) Neko
    No, they can't handle it.
    It's like their weak point.
[11:09] (Flashback) Akira
    Zombies are the very
    personification of death.
[11:12] (Flashback) Akira
    Thanatos, as it were.
[11:14] (Flashback) Akira
    Yin. Destruction. Annihilation.
[11:15] (Flashback) Akira
    Opposite it lies...
[11:17] (Flashback) Akira
    Eros.
[11:18] Akira
    A mindset that values sensuality.
[11:18] (Flashback) Reimi
    Akira-chan's going on
    about weird stuff again.
[11:20] Akira
    A yearning for beauty, goodness,
    and all living things.
[11:21] (Flashback) Nadeshiko
    Shh!
[11:24] (Flashback) Reimi
    I don't know what she's
    talking about anymore.
[11:27] (Flashback) Nadeshiko
    Are we still talking about zombies?
[11:28] (Flashback) Neko
    Be careful.
[11:29] (Flashback) Neko
    It's best if you can avoid zombies altogether,
[11:32] (Flashback) Neko
    but if they get close,
    the ground rule is to stay still.
[11:34] (Flashback) Neko
    What I mentioned is just
    one possible zombie theory.
[11:39] Nadeshiko
    Erotic!
[11:42] Shizuru
    Nade—
[11:44] Nadeshiko
    No! You've got it wrong!
[11:45] Nadeshiko
    You see, we're talking about eroticism!
[11:47] Shizuru
    E-Erotic?!
[11:48] Nadeshiko
    No!
[11:49] Nadeshiko
    Um, let's get this straight, Shizuru-chan!
[11:51] Akira
    What Neko-nii-san mentioned?
[11:53] Nadeshiko
    Yeah, that!
[11:54] Nadeshiko
    Please, Akira-chan!
[11:55] Nadeshiko
    Say something erotic!
[11:57] Group
    What?!
[11:57] Nadeshiko
    Anything's fine! Hurry!
[12:00] Akira
    Something erotic, something erotic...
[12:02] Akira
    I know, that English novel!
[12:05] Akira
    "Mellors laid his hand in pure desire,
    stroking the silky slope of her loins."
[12:14] Akira
    "His fingers traveled down,
    coming nearer to the very quick of her."
[12:20] Akira
    "Connie's resistance was gone,
    left without shame."
[12:24] Akira
    "Spreading her lovely thighs,
    she went all open to him."
[12:29] Akira
    "She felt his manhood risen against her
    with amazing assertion."
[12:35] Reimi
    Pervy...
[12:36] Shizuru
    I swear, Akira...
[12:39] Reimi
    Nadeko-chan, don't be gross!
[12:46] Reimi
    He's laughing?
[12:48] Shizuru
    I thought zombies didn't laugh.
[12:51] Nadeshiko
    He exploded!
[12:55] Shizuru
    Akira, you're amazing!
[12:57] Kuroki
    How do they know the zombies' weakness?!
[13:11] Reimi
    More erotic stuff!
[13:12] Akira
    What about grotesque?
[13:14] Reimi
    Nope!
[13:14] Akira
    I'm all out!
[13:15] Reimi
    Think something up!
[13:17] Akira
    No way!
[13:17] Akira
    You come up with something!
[13:19] Reimi
    Something pervy, something pervy...
[13:21] Nadeshiko
    T... Tw... Th...
[13:24] Nadeshiko
    Throbbing!
[13:25] Shizuru
    Whoa, that's kinda hot!
[13:27] Akira
    H...
[13:28] Akira
    Hanky-panky!
[13:31] Shizuru
    Huh? Hanky?
[13:33] Nadeshiko
    K... C...
[13:34] Nadeshiko
    Crawling!
[13:37] Shizuru
    Nadeko-chan, crawling doesn't sound dirty!
[13:52] Reimi
    Ugh, so icky!
[13:54] Nadeshiko
    It'd sound dirty if you said "sticky."
[13:57] Reimi
    I guess that might sound naughty to some.
[13:59] Akira
    S... S...
[14:00] Akira
    Squirming. Is that erotic?
[14:02] Nadeshiko
    I'm not sure.
[14:03] Nadeshiko
    Guess it depends?
[14:05] Shizuru
    B...
[14:07] Shizuru
    Bicker, bicker. Yell, yell.
[14:09] Reimi
    What?
[14:10] Shizuru
    Mope, mope.
[14:12] Shizuru
    Dilly-dally.
[14:13] Shizuru
    Bad, bad.
[14:14] Shizuru
    Worry, worry.
[14:16] Shizuru
    B-Beg, beg.
[14:21] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan, save that for Yoka-chan.
[14:35] Akira
    Our train is here.
[14:37] Akira
    Agano's over here.
SIGN    Ikebukuro
SIGN    Us
SIGN    Agano
SIGN    Sacred Tree
[14:38] Akira
    Ikebukuro's that way.
[14:40] Akira
    And the zombies are around here.
SIGN    Ikebukuro
[14:41] Reimi
    What?
[14:42] Shizuru
    Do we go through the zombies?
[14:44] Reimi
    With our train?
[14:45] Akira
    Grinding and snapping through them?
[14:47] Nadeshiko
    I kind of... really don't want that.
[14:49] Shizuru
    Oh, yeah. It's almost five.
[14:51] Shizuru
    Time to report to Zenjiro-san.
[14:52] Shizuru
    Zenjiro-san might be able
    to teach us something dirty!
[14:55] Akira
    Huh? You can teach us a song?
[14:57] Shizuru
    Awesome!
[14:58] Akira
    Nadeko-chan!
[14:58] Akira
    I'll dictate, so write it down.
[15:00] Nadeshiko
    Got it.
[15:02] Zenjiro
    Let me sing you a song!
[15:19] Kuroki
    You won't get away.
[15:21] Kuroki
    Zombies, have at them!
[15:22] Kuroki
    Capture the humans!
[15:29] Shizuru
    Ugh, look at that!
[15:30] Nadeshiko
    What if it doesn't work?
[15:32] Shizuru
    We won't know till we try.
[15:40] Group
    Tonight's a sweaty lovemaking festival!
[15:43] Group
    The lady back home, get her hot,
    strip her, spread her, line her up!
[15:48] Group
    Hey! Get rubbing, thrusting, ram-a-lama!
[15:51] Group
    Wham bam, ram-a-lam, bam ba-bam bam!
[15:53] Shizuru
    And again!
[15:54] Group
    Wham bam, ram-a-lam, bam ba-bam bam!
[16:03] Kuroki
    Really?!
[16:05] Shizuru
    It worked, it worked!
[16:06] Shizuru
    Zenjiro-san's amazing!
[16:08] Shizuru
    I think that's the first time
    he's actually been helpful.
[16:14] Nadeshiko
    They're not coming here.
[16:16] Shizuru
    What's the big deal?!
[16:17] Akira
    Moving in a pack isn't very
    zombie-like to begin with.
[16:21] Reimi
    Huh? Really?
[16:23] Akira
    Well, it means there's a chain of command,
    with a leader and followers.
[16:27] Akira
    I didn't know zombies even had a hierarchy.
[16:30] Shizuru
    That's right.
[16:31] Shizuru
    They're taking commands
    from the zombie queen.
[16:34] Nadeshiko
    Wait, Shizuru-chan!
[16:36] Nadeshiko
    Where are you going?
[16:37] Shizuru
    Off to talk with the queen.
[16:38] Group
    What?!
[16:40] Nadeshiko
    Talk with her?
[16:41] Nadeshiko
    No, you can't!
[16:43] Reimi
    You think you can talk
    things out with a zombie?
[16:46] Shizuru
    You see, the queen probably isn't a zombie.
[16:48] Group
    Huh?
[16:49] Shizuru
    She was the only one eating real food, right?
[16:52] Shizuru
    Like udon.
[16:53] Shizuru
    Not that she gave us any.
[16:55] Nadeshiko
    But isn't that because she's the queen?
[16:58] Shizuru
    That's her excuse. I think.
[17:00] Shizuru
    She'd be in trouble
    if they knew she was human.
[17:03] Reimi
    I guess, yeah.
[17:05] Reimi
    After she pretended to be their queen.
[17:07] Akira
    So use that to threaten her?
[17:09] Nadeshiko
    What if she really is a real zombie?
[17:12] Shizuru
    If she really is a real zombie,
    I'll fight her.
[17:15] Shizuru
    Not even the queen can come back
    if she's smashed into pieces.
[17:18] Nadeshiko
    Smashed into pieces?!
[17:19] Shizuru
    Don't mess with Agano jiu-jutsu!
[17:21] Nadeshiko
    I'll go with you.
[17:22] Nadeshiko
    You've got your Agano jiu-jitsu,
[17:24] Nadeshiko
    and I have Agano archery and my 
    hours in The House of the Dead!
[17:33] Shizuru
    Hey! We want to talk!
[17:35] Kuroki
    What?
[17:40] Kuroki
    Stop!
[17:47] Shizuru
    Why?
[17:49] Kuroki
    Why what?
[17:50] Shizuru
    Because they'll eat you if they find out?
[17:58] (Flashback) Kuroki
    What?
[17:59] (Flashback) Kuroki
    What happened?
[18:01] (Flashback) Kuroki
    Where'd everyone go?
[18:17] (Flashback) Kuroki
    What?
[18:17] (Flashback) Kuroki
    What's going on?
[18:20] (Flashback) Kuroki
    Oh, no! They can see my panties!
[18:24] (Flashback) Kuroki
    Is it the panties?
[18:28] Shizuru
    You've been their queen ever since?
[18:32] Reimi
    Pretending you're a zombie?
[18:33] Nadeshiko
    Reimi-chan!
[18:35] Kuroki
    I didn't want to pretend,
    but I didn't have a choice.
[18:38] Shizuru
    Which station's closest to your house?
[18:40] Kuroki
    Hoya.
[18:41] Shizuru
    You didn't think to go back?
[18:43] Kuroki
    I did, but still...
[18:45] Reimi
    You couldn't have the zombies find out?
[18:48] Kuroki
    That's true too, but...
[18:55] (Flashback) Kuroki
    Don't move!
[19:04] (Flashback) Kuroki
    I need to go back!
[19:39] (Flashback) Kuroki
    You were waiting for me?
[19:49] (Flashback) Kuroki
    Good job surviving the mold, my subjects!
[19:51] (Flashback) Kuroki
    The queen commends you!
[20:00] Reimi
    I see...
[20:02] Reimi
    A master and her servants. How nice!
[20:04] Reimi
    So you took the zombies with you
    to wander around together.
[20:07] Kuroki
    If I didn't, they'd grow mold
    and fall to pieces.
[20:11] Nadeshiko
    Makes sense.
[20:12] Shizuru
    I guess you were a pretty nice queen.
[20:14] Kuroki
    I didn't have any other choice.
[20:16] Shizuru
    Nope.
[20:17] Shizuru
    You've been a good queen to them.
[20:19] Kuroki
    Thanks.
[20:21] Reimi
    We're on our way to Ikebukuro.
[20:23] Reimi
    How 'bout you, Kurokin?
[20:24] Akira
    When'd you get so friendly with her?
[20:26] Reimi
    It's fine! We're friends!
[20:28] Kuroki
    Friends...
[20:29] Nadeshiko
    Want to come with us to Ikebukuro,
    Kurokin-chan?
[20:32] Kuroki
    Ikebukuro... with friends...
[20:37] Kuroki
    Together...
[20:41] Kuroki
    I can't do that. I'm the queen.
[20:44] Reimi
    But, you know...
[20:45] Kuroki
    Sorry for holding you up.
[20:48] Kuroki
    I haven't seen any humans in so long
    that I just wanted to talk.
[20:52] Kuroki
    But if you have somewhere to go,
    I shouldn't be stopping you.
[20:58] Kuroki
    I'll tell the zombies not
    to attack any humans.
[21:01] Akira
    You'll still be feared and hated, and you
    might even end up being attacked yourself.
[21:06] Kuroki
    I'm used to it.
[21:07] Akira
    What?
[21:07] Kuroki
    But I'm different from how I used to be,
[21:11] Kuroki
    and now I have these zombies here with me.
[21:13] Kuroki
    There's no need for you to worry.
[21:15] Shizuru
    Got it.
[21:19] Kuroki
    Be careful on your journey.
[21:21] Kuroki
    I hear that Ikebukuro has its own queen.
[21:24] Reimi
    See you later!
[21:25] Reimi
    We'll stop by on our way back!
[21:26] Akira
    Watch your panties!

    You can reload with a
    small snap of the wrist!
[21:31] Nadeshiko
    Good luck beating chapter one!

    Be especially careful of the queen!
[21:38] Reimi
    You think Kurokin was bullied as a kid?
[21:41] Akira
    Huh? That doesn't matter!
[21:42] Shizuru
    Sure it does.
[21:44] Akira
    What?
[21:44] Shizuru
    The past is linked to who you are now,
[21:47] Shizuru
    as well as who you'll be in the future.
[21:49] Nadeshiko
    For better or for worse.

SIGN    Episode 8       Isn't That Bad Karma?
[03:21] Reimi
    Well, duh.
[03:22] Reimi
    Remember what that weird
    old guy in Hoya said?
[03:24] Reimi
    NeriAli's up ahead!
[03:26] Akira
    Was he telling the truth?
[03:27] Akira
    Did Oizumi-gakuen really 
    turn into NeriAli Land?
[03:30] Reimi
    It's the 7G incident.
[03:32] Reimi
    Anything goes.
[03:33] Nadeshiko
    I guess we have run into a lot
    of far-fetched things so far.
[03:36] Reimi
    Right, right?
SIGN    Darkizumites
    Denizens of Dark Nerima. Kindhearted, gentle, and hate conflict. As a result, they end up
    oppressed by Chaos and his men. Used to be normal humans, but their extreme dependency
    has slowly turned them pig-like. It's said that too much dependency can turn them
    into full-blown pigs, but none of them seem to care. They're really fine with that?
    A great number of them love beef.
[03:37] Reimi
    Everyone in Oizumi-gakuen turned 
    into the Darkizumites from NeriAli.
SIGN    Alice
    Mischievous third-year in high school who went through the
    roller coaster that is: No. 2 in the school hierarchy -> Complete recluse ->
    Young leader of Dark Nerima. Searching online for the incident that
    turned her into a recluse still turns up hits, so don't look it up.
    So what if she wet herself once? I'd even say a screw-up like that
    is a must for a character brimming with charisma like Alice!
    What do you think?
[03:41] Reimi
    There's also people who became
    Alice, Iron Monty, Su-chan,
SIGN    Iron Monty
     
    A professional torturer who keeps torture devices from all over the world
    on hand. Has a great deal of pride. Hails from a long line of torturers.
    Takes his work seriously, but sometimes loses himself to torturer's high
    (ecstasy felt by torturers). Goes on about how at the heart of torture is a
    relationship of trust between torturer and torturee. Whatever that means.
    Very sensitive to pain, and makes a huge fuss over minor scrapes.
    Calls in sick to work.
SIGN    Su-chan
    Highly suicidal girl. Keeps a noose around her neck to die at any time
    as part of her personal identity. Goes into a panic and faints when the
    noose is taken off. She says it feels like walking in public naked.
    Averse to hardship and adversity, she always complains with
    "Dying, dying!" When something happens to her, gets angry with
    "Are you trying to kill me?" Sings a weird song when she feels happy.
    Wants to visit Sugamo Prison someday. It's gone, girl.
[03:44] Reimi
    and even Opie, the opium poppy.
SIGN    Opie
     
    An opium poppy come to life. Releases a white fluid when
    under stress or beat to a pulp. This white fluid makes you
    feel really, really good. All your worries melt away
    and it feelsh like nuthin' mattersh. But no need fer worry.
    The magic of genetic engineerin' meansh ya won't get
    addicted. Heheh. Heheheheheh. Whew, feelsh like heaven. Urp.
SIGN    Alice in Nerima Land
    Official Fanbook
[03:46] Reimi
    I'm so jealous of whoever got to be Alice!
[03:49] Akira
    Wait, that means we'll also run
    into Alice's nemesis, Chaos.
SIGN    Chaos
    Norfolk terrier. Boss of Dark Nerima, as you all know.
    Bad to the bone. Loves decay and chaos above all.
    Claims that Japanese wolves went extinct because he
    devoured them all. Rather than using violence to rule,
    he's better at exploiting weaknesses and picking away
    at them. Good at uncovering trauma and feels extreme
    joy when degrading and humiliating others.
    In short, this puppy's one big troublemaker.
[03:52] Nadeshiko
    Not only Chaos, but his
    minions Man-Cow, Rugger Man,
SIGN    Man-Cow
    An abomination that's part cow, part human.
    Fires breast milk in all directions
    and can't stop itself when it gets started.
    Its breast milk is acidic and making contact
    results in a furious itch, as well as mysterious
    rashes. Has four all-season tires in place of legs
    and can traverse any terrain. Fueled by breast milk,
    of course. Extremely scared of weaning.
SIGN    Rugger Man
     
    A rugby player who wanted to be a baseball player, which
    is why he uses baseball phrases like "Hey, batter batter"
    or "nice swing". Has no love of rugby and doesn't care
    if you mix it up with gridiron football. The canoe he rides
    runs on hydropower. Slapping it makes it go faster, but if
    it gets in a bad mood, sometimes it ignores Rugger Man
    and speeds off wherever it likes (mainly down
    Senkawa-dori and Kyuwaseda-dori).
SIGN    Calico Cat
    A rare male calico. The one who brought Alice to Dark Nerima.
    Calls himself a video game enthusiast. Never skips his workouts,
    but aren't those muscles more of a turn-off? As for why he works out,
    bluntly put, "So I can snatch new consoles and games and make a run
    for it." Hates shooters, action games, RPGs, and simulation games.
[03:55] Nadeshiko
    Calico Cat, Jonidan, Guilt Incarnate,
SIGN    Jonidan
    The reincarnation of a jonidan sumo wrestler sacrificed to the gods.
    The patterns on his body are said to be a vestige, but there are rumors
    he drew them on himself. Look up "wicker man" for more details.
    Regrets only making it to the jonidan division in sumo wrestling,
    but there are no records to be found of him at all, so some think
    he's just a chubby guy telling porkies.
SIGN    Guilt Incarnate
    Just like his name says, the personification of all the guilt
    in the world. From that, you'd think he'd be clingy, but he's
    actually very easygoing. Obviously thinks saying sorry will
    fix everything, which can get on your nerves. Sometimes
    attacks by firing a guilt beam from his head. His guilt beam
    is extremely sour. It's said to taste like black vinegar.
SIGN    Quarter Evening Cicada,
    Quarter Brown Cicada, Et Cetera
    Claims to be an elite specimen with all the best traits of cicadas,
    but he's really just a mixed breed. Rare example of a cicada bad
    at playing dead who gets found out instantly. Constantly receives
    stern warnings from the All-Japan Association of Cicadas Playing
    Dead. Despite this, he's always caught off guard and is easily
    tricked by other cicadas playing dead. His hilarious reactions
    are a big hit with the crowd.
[03:57] Nadeshiko
    Quarter Evening Cicada,
    Quarter Brown Cicada, Et Cetera,
SIGN    Walkers
    Shogi pawns. They talk with thick accents that have no rhyme
    or reason to them. Very arrogant despite being weak.
    They side with those stronger than them and lead carefree lives.
[04:00] Nadeshiko
    and the enemy grunts, the Walkers.
[04:03] Nadeshiko
    I can't help but be scared.
[04:04] Akira

[04:40] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Does Iron Monty get off on hurting people?
[04:42] (Flashback) Yoka
    He used to be a pro torturer.
[04:44] (Flashback) Yoka
    He takes pride in his torture,
[04:46] (Flashback) Yoka
    but he hates being in pain himself.
[04:50] (Flashback) Shizuru
    And Su-chan's the one who
    always attempts suicide?
[04:53] (Flashback) Yoka
    Yep.
[04:53] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Opie's the one who spews
    freaky juice when hurt,
[04:57] (Flashback) Shizuru
    which makes everyone feel good?
[04:59] (Flashback) Yoka
    Yeah, but it's been genetically
    altered to be harmless to humans.
[05:03] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Oh, who's this guy?
[05:04] (Flashback) Shizuru
    The boss?
[05:05] (Flashback) Yoka
    He's called Chaos.
[05:06] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Because he KOs people with his stomping?
[05:08] (Flashback) Yoka
    I think that's a part of it,
    but it's written differently.
[05:11] (Flashback) Yoka
    The spelling is a little more difficult.
[05:13] Chaos
    Look here.
[05:15] Chaos
    I came up with a real good idea last night.
[05:19] (Flashback) Shizuru
    It looks like Alice doesn't
    have any chance of winning.
[05:22] (Flashback) Yoka
    Don't worry.
[05:23] (Flashback) Yoka
    The world of Dark Oizumi
    may seem topsy-turvy,
[05:26] (Flashback) Yoka
    but it's all actually a shogi board.
[05:28] (Flashback) Yoka
    When all's said and done, they all
    have to obey the rules of shogi.
[05:31] (Flashback) Yoka
    And so, once Alice figures that out,
[05:34] (Flashback) Yoka
    she uses hasami shogi to
    take down Chaos and his men,
[05:37] (Flashback) Yoka
    leaving her free to return to Nerima.
[05:39] (Flashback) Yoka
    But then, you won't believe
    what happens next!
[05:42] (Flashback) Yoka
    Oh, no!
[05:43] (Flashback) Yoka
    I got carried away and started spoiling it!
[05:45] (Flashback) Yoka

    You cocky little kids.

[08:10] Chaos
    And where are you going?
[08:12] Reimi
    We told you, Ikebukuro!
[08:13] Chaos
    I can't let you do that.
[08:15] Chaos
    Someone who's a real pain told me
    not to let anyone through.
[08:19] Chaos
    All of you, capture them!
[08:20] Chaos
    No more failures!
[08:22] Chaos

[08:24] Akira
    What now?
[08:25] Reimi
    What do you mean, "what now?"
[08:26] Shizuru
    For now, we need to run away!
[08:35] Akira
    I know, the escalator!
[08:37] Shizuru
    What about it?
[08:38] Akira
    You know, in the real NeriAli,
[08:40] Akira
    this is where the entrance to Dark Nerima is.
[08:43] Reimi
    Oh, I get it!
[08:43] Reimi
    You mean, it might let us

[09:05] Reimi
    Huh, a secret hideout?
[09:07] Akira
    A resistance group! So cool!
[09:09] Darkizumiite 1
    We wouldn't dare.
[09:10] Reimi
    Hey, hey. Why'd all this happen?
[09:12] Reimi
    I thought the Darkizumites were
    living happy lives with Alice.
[09:16] Darkizumiite 3
    We were, but the shogi bag trapping
    the bad guys inside suddenly tore open,
[09:20] Darkizumiite 3
    and out came Chaos and the others.
[09:22] Darkizumiite 5
    Then Chaos took over in no time,
    and now we're here!
[09:24] Darkizumiite 5
    It's been like this for a week!
[09:25] Shizuru
    So this all happened recently?
[09:28] Akira
    Why all of a sudden?
[09:32] Reimi
    What's that?
[09:33] Darkizumiite 5
    Nothing, nothing!
[09:34] Reimi
    How fishy.

[09:43] Reimi

[09:44] Reimi
    Can you autograph this? Please!
[09:46] Su-chan
    Are you going to kill me?
[09:47] Group
    No, we're not!
[09:49] Nadeshiko
    So the folks of Dark Oizumi
    gave you a place to hide, Su-chan?
[09:53] Su-chan
    Who are you?
[09:54] Nadeshiko
    Just a passing stranger.
[09:55] Reimi
    They're after us, just like you.
[09:58] Shizuru
    Hey, is it true that Alice
    and the rest are dead?
[10:01] Su-chan
    It's more like they disappeared
    instead of died.
[10:03] Akira
    Like in The Human Vapor?
[10:05] Su-chan
    They got ambushed in gunjin shogi
    and went kaboom.
[10:08] Nadeshiko
    "Kaboom"?
[10:09] Su-chan
    Literal explosions.
[10:11] Su-chan
    I managed to run away, but the
    other three ended up as shards.
[10:15] Shizuru
    Shards?
[10:16] Su-chan
    If the shards still exist, we can bring
    Alice and the others back to life.
[10:20] Su-chan
    That's why Chaos sealed the shards away.
[10:22] Shizuru
    Where?
[10:23] Su-chan
    Their graves.

[10:34] Nadeshiko

    and it'll bring them back to life.
[10:40] Akira
    Wait a minute.
[10:41] Akira
    Isn't that what they used before
    to bring Man-Cow back?
[10:44] Nadeshiko
    In the book, they said it's pretty risky.
[10:47] Darkizumiite 5
    Risky or not, it's the only option we have!
[10:49] Shizuru
    So you mean we steal the
    gravedigger's scythe by force,
[10:52] Shizuru
    open up the graves by force,
[10:54] Shizuru
    and bring the shards to the Fountain

    And hooray, Alice is back!
[10:59] Nadeshiko
    Where was the Fountain
    of Captured Pieces, again?
[11:01] Darkizumiite 3
    In Chaos's holiday home.
[11:03] Nadeshiko
    That sounds impossible.
[11:04] Darkizumiite 1
    Not an issue. Take a look.
[11:06] Darkizumiite 5
    We risked our lives to steal this
    from his holiday home.
[11:08] Darkizumiite 5
    We swapped it out with
    diluted iodine tincture.
[11:11] Darkizumiite 5
    Swimming in that will sting you

    Of course we know her! She's our friend!
[20:15] Nadeshiko
    We're going to Ikebukuro to meet her!
[20:17] Chaos
    What?!
[20:18] Chaos
    She'd never give you insolent
    punks the time of day!
[20:20] Chaos
    She's Yoka, the Witch Queen!
[20:22] Chaos
    The fearsome ruler of Ikebukuro,
    not to mention the entire world!
[20:25] Shizuru
    You're lying!
[20:26] Chaos
    You'll all be turned into egg custard!
[20:27] Chaos
    Serves you right!
[20:29] Chaos
    Must report, must report!
[20:32] Nadeshiko
    What does he mean by Witch Queen?
[20:35] Akira
    That said, now we know Yoka-chan is safe.
[20:38] Nadeshiko
    That's true.
[20:39] Reimi
    Chaos must have been bluffing.
[20:42] Group
    Thank you!
[20:44] Darkizumiite 6
    Now Oizumi-gakuen can finally be at peace!
[20:47] Darkizumiite 3
    Please continue to watch over us
    for eternity, Queen Alice-sama.
[20:53] Nadeshiko
    What? No can do.
[20:55] Nadeshiko
    We need to head over to Ikebukuro.
[20:58] Darkizumiite 1
    Who will be our ruler, then?!
[20:59] Reimi
    Take care of it yourselves.
[21:01] Darkizumiite 5
    We have dependency issues, you know!
[21:02] Darkizumiite 5
    What if the Walkers come
    back to settle the score?!
[21:05] Nadeshiko
    Good luck.
[21:05] Nadeshiko
    I'm sure you can handle it.
[21:06] Darkizumiite 5
    How irresponsible!
[21:07] Nadeshiko
    Are we really?
[21:08] Reimi
    Whatever. Just give us back our clothes.
[21:10] Darkizumiite 2
    Hey, wait...
[21:21] Nadeshiko
    You know...
[21:23] Nadeshiko
    The 7G incident has to be the reason that 
    the town became NeriAli World, right?
[21:28] Reimi
    Then, out of nowhere,
    Chaos and the Walkers came back
[21:32] Reimi
    and turned it into Bad Guy World.
[21:34] Nadeshiko
    Why did that happen
    after they were fine for so long?
[21:37] Akira
    Someone deliberately tampered 
    with the world of NeriAli?
[21:40] Reimi
    But why?
[21:41] Akira
    I'm not sure.
[21:42] Nadeshiko
    They gained gunjin shogi powers
    for a short amount of time,
[21:46] Nadeshiko
    and the settings for the Fountain of
    Captured Pieces got changed, too.
[21:49] Reimi
    All these mysteries worry me,
    but what concerns me the most is still...
[21:55] Akira
    Yeah.
[21:56] Nadeshiko
    Of course.
[22:04] Shizuru
    Yoka...
[22:07] Shizuru
    the Witch Queen?

[00:05] Pochi
    Good morning.
[00:10] Yoka
    Morning...
[00:13] Pochi
    It's a lovely day outside.
[00:16] Yoka
    It sure is.
[00:18] Yoka
    Pochi, what's my schedule for today?
[00:21] Pochi
    You're free to do as you want until noon.
[00:24] Pochi
    Pontaro-san will be joining you for lunch.
[00:27] Yoka
    Pontaro...
[00:29] Yoka
    Okay, got it.
[00:31] Yoka
    No one else is coming over?
[00:33] Pochi
    Correct.
[00:34] Pochi
    No one will come here, so rest assured.
[00:36] Yoka
    I see.
[00:38] Yoka
    Let's have breakfast.
[00:39] Yoka
    I need to leave for school at 8:30.
[00:42] Pochi
    Understood.
[00:43] Pochi
    Please change into these first, then.
[00:47] Yoka
    Did I do my homework?
[00:49] Pochi
    You did.
[00:50] Yoka
    Really?
[00:51] Yoka
    Thanks, Pochi.
[00:53] Pochi
    You're welcome.
[00:56] Yoka
    Time to eat.

    Oh, Yoka-hime!
[02:57] Pontaro
    I see you're looking healthier,
    cooler, and sexier than ever.
[03:01] Yoka
    Hello.
[03:02] Pontaro
    To think you'd greet a humble
    servant such as myself!
[03:05] Pontaro
    I, Poison Pontaro, am overcome with joy.
[03:07] Pontaro
    Which is to say, I'm honored beyond words!
[03:10] Yoka
    What's for lunch?
[03:12] Pochi
    Ten-times-spicy curry with
    an Agano bitter melon salad in vinegar.
[03:17] Yoka
    Agano...
[03:19] Pontaro
    This rural menu might not be
    to Yoka-hime's taste!
[03:22] Pontaro
    In other words, make her something different!
[03:25] Pontaro
    Pronto!
[03:26] Yoka
    Bitter melon's fine.
[03:27] Yoka
    But why bitter melon?
[03:29] Pochi
    We got some in stock through Hoya.
[03:31] Pochi
    It seems it was brought in via caravan.
[03:33] Yoka
    Huh...

    Well, well, well!
[03:42] Pontaro
    Pochi-kun, thanks for all your hard work!
[03:44] Pontaro
    "Pochi-kun" begins with a "Po,"
    just like the humble "Pontaro."
[03:46] Pontaro
    As fellow "Po"s, we should both serve
    the princess with the utmost loyalty!
[03:50] Pochi
    That is what I strive to do.
[03:52] Pontaro
    Sheesh, Pochicchi, you only
    ever think about the princess!
[03:56] Pontaro
    How cute!
[03:58] Pochi
    You want to eat, too?
[03:59] Pontaro
    Yes, of course.
[04:00] Pontaro
    Yes, yes!
[04:02] Pontaro
    Time to dig in!

[04:09] Pontaro
    It's Pontaro, but yes?

    Tontaro-san, who are you again?
[04:13] Pontaro
    Excuse me?
[04:14] Yoka
    You come over to hang out a lot.
[04:16] Yoka
    I was wondering why, exactly.
[04:17] Pontaro
    Oh, come now!
[04:19] Pontaro
    Surely you jest, Princess!
[04:21] Pontaro
    To think you'd forget your loyal subject.
[04:23] Pontaro
    I'm Poison Pontaro, the mayor.

    Please do try and remember!
[04:27] Yoka
    You're going on about
    princesses and subjects,
[04:30] Yoka
    but I don't really get what you mean.
[04:31] Yoka
    I'm no—
[04:32] Pontaro
    What are you saying?!
[04:34] Pontaro
    Have you forgotten?
[04:35] Pontaro
    The day you came to Ikebukuro,
[04:37] Pontaro
    which is to say, the day Ikebukuro
    welcomed you as our princess—
[04:40] Yoka
    When I came to Ikebukuro...
[04:43] Pontaro
    —the one who greeted you was none
    other than myself, Pontaro!
[04:46] Pontaro
    You don't remember?

    If I may put it in more
    specialized terminology,
[04:52] Pontaro
    it truly is so sad!

    There's no mistaking it.

    better off heeding those warnings.
[05:12] (Flashback) Pontaro
    Hey, now.
[05:12] (Flashback) Pontaro
    Let's stick to the story that
    everything went as planned.
[05:15] (Flashback) Pontaro
    No matter what, it's too late
    to say that 7G was a failure.
[05:18] (Flashback) Man 1
    How do we change it all back?

    Hey, hey, hey, hey.
[05:21] (Flashback) Pontaro
    No way we're taking the blame.

    We'll play dumb and keep things as they are.

    No one knows what went on here.

    Well, one person does,
    but his brain's mush now.

    Huh?
[05:41] (Flashback) Yoka
    What was I doing, again?
[05:44] (Flashback) Yoka
    Everything's a blur.
[05:48] (Flashback) Pochi
    I think it's about time we got up.
[05:50] (Flashback) Yoka
    Why?
[05:51] (Flashback) Pochi
    We need to go for a walk.

    You remind me of Pochi-san.

    "Pochi"?

    My big dog who loves walks
    and is always by my side.

    Is that so?
[06:15] (Flashback) Pochi
    Then please, call me Pochi.

    I'll always be at your side.

    I've taken on a large body now.
[06:22] (Flashback) Pochi
    It's most likely strong.

    I may not be able to reach

[06:38] (Flashback) Pochi
    It appears so.
[06:40] (Flashback) Yoka
    Really?
[06:42] (Flashback) Yoka
    It's different from what I was expecting.

    Apparently it's like this now.
[06:47] (Flashback) Yoka
    I'm not sure whether it's more amazing

    It might become a more
    bustling place in the future.

    That seems unrelated.
[07:06] (Flashback) Pochi

[07:07] (Flashback) Pochi
    The current Ikebukuro is deeply
    related to you, Yoka-sama.
[07:11] (Flashback) Yoka
    You have a point.
[07:12] (Flashback) Yoka
    It'd be better if it were
    bustling instead of desolate.
[07:15] (Flashback) Pochi
    That's right.

[07:29] (Flashback) Yoka
    You feel better when everything's so lively.

    Do you feel bad when it's quiet?
[07:35] (Flashback) Yoka
    When it's quiet...
[07:37] (Flashback) Yoka
    When something happens, and it's quiet...
[07:39] (Flashback) Yoka
    I don't know if I feel bad, exactly.

    I'm fine with it being quiet, but...

    Um, let me think...

    Anyway, the city's nice, too.
[07:52] (Flashback) Pochi

    Did they ever find any?

[08:33] Yoka
    Bear a grudge?
[08:34] Pontaro
    That's right!
[08:35] Pontaro

    What utter disrespect!

    You dare go against the

[09:07] Grudge Holder
    Shut up!

    Why must the other train lines
    be sacrificed?!
[09:13] Yoka
    You're wrong.

    Nothing's been sacrificed.

[09:23] Yoka
    I know nothing about the world you mean.

    It's fun, right?
[10:16] Pochi
    If you think it's fun,
    then I, too, find it fun.
[10:21] Yoka

    So red pandas don't wash themselves?
[12:00] Shizuru
    She always washes the dishes
    after cooking and stuff.
[12:03] Reimi
    Then it's fine.
[12:05] Akira
    What's with that optimism?
[12:06] Nadeshiko

    Wait, I'll be in it, right?
[12:34] Akira
    I guess you'll have to be.
[12:36] Reimi
    Make me real awesome in it!
[12:37] Reimi
    The strong, beautiful, and smart Reimi-chan!
[12:40] Akira
    Nuh-uh.
[12:40] Akira
    I need to put down the truth.
[12:42] Reimi
    What do you mean? It's all true!
[12:44] Akira
    Well, we don't know if we'll
    even make it back to Agano.
[12:48] Reimi
    You mean we might end up
    staying in Ikebukuro?
[12:50] Reimi
    Nah, probably not.
[12:51] Akira
    No way!
[12:53] Akira
    Well, I guess it's possible.
[12:55] Nadeshiko
    What?
[12:56] Nadeshiko
    We need to go back with Yoka-chan!
[12:58] Nadeshiko
    Everyone's waiting back home.
[12:59] Reimi
    That's true.
[13:01] Akira
    Are they really?
[13:02] Shizuru
    Huh?
[13:08] Nadeshiko
    What's that?
[13:13] Akira
    The hermit! In the swan boat!
[13:15] Nadeshiko
    The old man who gave us the map?
[13:16] Reimi
    That shady guy!
[13:17] Shizuru
    Hey, look!
[13:19] Reimi
    Isn't he in trouble?
[13:20] Nadeshiko
    Do we leave him be?
[13:21] Shizuru
    No way, no way!
[13:27] Nadeshiko
    We need something to...
[13:29] Nadeshiko
    Out of the way, you two!
[13:30] Reimi
    What?
[13:30] Nadeshiko
    Reimi-chan, bring the rope!
[13:32] Reimi
    Huh? Okay!
[13:33] Akira
    What now, Nadeko-chan?
[13:34] Nadeshiko
    Stop the train, Shizuru-chan!
[13:36] Shizuru
    Okay!
[13:44] Swan Hermit
    Help me!
[13:46] Nadeshiko
    Land!
[13:53] Swan Hermit
    Good golly, I thought I was dead.
[13:56] Shizuru
    Weren't you going up the Ikebukuro line?
[13:59] Shizuru
    Why'd you come from Ikebukuro?
[14:00] Swan Hermit
    No, I had passed Agano,
[14:03] Swan Hermit
    and was heading deeper and deeper west
    in hopes of reaching Nishi-Agano.
[14:07] Akira
    Huh?
[14:08] Akira
    But you came from Ikebukuro's direction.
[14:10] Nadeshiko
    Did you make a wide turn somewhere?
[14:12] Swan Hermit
    There's absolutely...
[14:14] Swan Hermit
    a possibility that happened.
[14:15] Shizuru
    What the heck?
[14:17] Swan Hermit
    Let me see the map.
[14:19] Swan Hermit
    The one I gave you last time.
[14:22] Shizuru
    Where'd we put it?
[14:23] Reimi
    Beats me.
[14:24] Nadeshiko
    Here it is.
[14:25] Swan Hermit
    Can't you treat it with more care?!
[14:26] Shizuru
    Everything on it is way too vague!
[14:29] Akira
    It's like heta-uma anti-art.
[14:30] Swan Hermit
    This map is the only one that shows
    the condition of the world today!
[14:35] Swan Hermit
    It's a nugget of wisdom!
[14:36] Swan Hermit
    Do you remember?
[14:37] Swan Hermit
    We first met here!
[14:39] Swan Hermit
    And now we're here.
[14:41] Nadeshiko
    Is that so?
[14:43] Reimi
    Huh?
[14:44] Reimi
    Is this mushroom for Higashi-Agano?
[14:47] Shizuru
    Huh?
[14:47] Shizuru
    And this is Musashi-Yokote's goat people?
[14:50] Nadeshiko
    These are... the tiny people of Inariyama?
[14:52] Akira
    This one seems like a
    really long shot, but...
[14:54] Akira
    Chaos from NeriAli?
[14:55] Shizuru
    So this map was right all along?
[14:57] Swan Hermit
    Didn't I just say?
[14:58] Swan Hermit
    It's a nugget of wisdom.
[14:59] Shizuru
    Who'd think a guy meandering about in a
    swan boat would know all about these places?
[15:05] Swan Hermit
    How do you think humans learned about
    galaxies 13.4 billion light years away?
[15:11] Shizuru
    No idea.
[15:12] Swan Hermit
    An inquisitive mind, I say!
[15:14] Swan Hermit
    And the ability to calmly observe.
[15:16] Shizuru
    I see...
[15:17] Swan Hermit
    My inquisition drove me to devote myself
    to journeying up the Koma River.
[15:21] Reimi
    Ah, I think you mentioned that.
[15:23] Swan Hermit
    And for whatever reason, we now
    find ourselves reunited here.
[15:26] Swan Hermit
    What an intriguing phenomenon!
[15:28] Akira
    Are you sure you didn't turn back
    without realizing it?
[15:30] Reimi
    Oh, yeah. People like that
    forget what they did all the time.
[15:33] Reimi
    Your brain goes senile as you get old.
[15:35] Swan Hermit
    That's not it!
[15:35] Swan Hermit
    There's nothing abnormal with my brain!
[15:38] Swan Hermit
    If there's anything abnormal here,
    it's the world we live in!
[15:41] Swan Hermit
    Ah, you think I'm just
    pointing out the obvious.
[15:44] Swan Hermit
    Mushrooms, pseudo-giants, zombies,
    and the now-mighty Koma River!
[15:48] Swan Hermit
    It's true that the world has changed greatly.
[15:50] Swan Hermit
    But I'm talking about the changes
    that are still happening as we speak!
[15:53] Shizuru
    Um, what do you mean, still happening?
[15:56] Swan Hermit
    The world is contracting,
    Ikebukuro is expanding,
[15:58] Swan Hermit
    and the rules governing the world
    grow ever more turbulent!
[16:01] Shizuru
    All this difficult stuff is going
    right over my head...
[16:03] Akira
    By expanding, is that a figure
    of speech for prosperity?
[16:06] Swan Hermit
    No, it's literally expanding!
[16:07] Swan Hermit
    Ikebukuro is swelling up
    like a fleshy balloon!
[16:10] Reimi
    That's a real gross image.
[16:12] Nadeshiko
    What will happen after all that swelling?
[16:14] Swan Hermit
    It'll disappear.
[16:15] Akira
    You mean Ikebukuro? Agano?
[16:17] Swan Hermit
    It'll all disappear.
[16:19] Nadeshiko
    Can't we stop it?
[16:20] Swan Hermit
    Nope!
[16:21] Shizuru
    You're certain?
[16:21] Swan Hermit
    That's the facts.
[16:22] Reimi
    Hold on a sec.
[16:24] Reimi
    The city has leaders and stuff, right?
[16:26] Reimi
    Why don't they do anything?
[16:28] Nadeshiko
    Do they not exist?
[16:30] Shizuru
    I never thought about it.
[16:31] Reimi
    You really need to think about this stuff.
[16:34] Swan Hermit
    It's no use.
[16:34] Swan Hermit
    If they felt like doing anything,
    they'd have done it by now.
[16:37] Nadeshiko
    Yeah, that's true.
[16:39] Shizuru
    Looks like all we can do is take
    matters into our own hands.
[16:42] Swan Hermit
    I don't know about that.
[16:43] Shizuru
    What?
[16:43] Swan Hermit
    I can't help but feel that
    there are powers in Ikebukuro
[16:48] Swan Hermit
    trying to stop those
    who would fix this disordered world.
[16:51] Swan Hermit
    If you head to Ikebukuro, you might have
    to face off against those fearsome powers.
[16:57] Swan Hermit
    Are you prepared to handle that?
[16:58] Swan Hermit
    I can't say I am.
[17:00] Makoto
    Don't move! Stay still!
[17:04] Makoto
    "Where's my cap?"
[17:06] Makoto
    "It'll affect the post office
    with chapped hands."
[17:08] Makoto
    "Consult a tiny squeeze of eye drops."
[17:11] Makoto
    Is it no good without his usual hat?
[17:14] Makoto
    Further recovery from Pontaro's
    wibble-wobble surgery is impossible, then?
[17:17] Makoto
    Huh? Hold on.
[17:19] Makoto
    "If 7G isn't stopped,
    even Ikebukuro will disappear."
[17:22] Makoto
    "Must find cause of 7G
    and repair broken world."
[17:28] Makoto
    "Need to ruin Pontaro's future plans
    and put an end to them."
[17:33] Makoto
    Has he recovered a bit?
[17:34] Makoto
    Wait a minute.
[17:36] Makoto
    What do you mean, Ikebukuro will disappear?
[17:38] Makoto
    "Increase in entropy."
[17:39] Makoto
    "Miniature version of cosmic expansion."
[17:42] Makoto
    "The Big Rip."
[17:43] Makoto
    "The soap bubbles popped."
[17:45] Makoto
    "They popped, and they're gone."
[17:46] Makoto
    Forget the theory! When will it disappear?!
[17:48] Makoto
    "Choo-choo choo-choo-choo..."
[17:52] Makoto
    "No idea"?!
[17:55] Makoto
    "It could be tomorrow. It could be
    two billion years from now."
[17:59] Makoto
    "No one can predict it."
[18:01] Makoto
    Zenjiro...
[18:02] Makoto
    I wouldn't expect to hear those
    words out of an engineer.
[18:05] Makoto
    I get it, I get it!
[18:06] Makoto
    Whoa, whoa, whoa...
[18:08] Makoto
    If we can't avoid
    annihilation via expansion...
[18:12] Nadeshiko
    Why don't you put a stop to your journey?
[18:14] Reimi
    Yeah! It's too dangerous, hermit!
[18:16] Swan Hermit
    Don't be ridiculous!
[18:18] Swan Hermit
    The world continues to change,
    now and in the future!
[18:21] Swan Hermit
    How could I turn my eyes away?!
[18:23] Shizuru
    How irrational.
[18:24] Swan Hermit
    Life is all about being irrational!
[18:26] Shizuru
    Did you lead an irrational life before 7G?
[18:30] Swan Hermit
    Indeed.
[18:30] Swan Hermit
    To sum it up, it was a big, old, absurd mess!
[18:33] Akira
    What did you do in Ikebukuro?
[18:35] Swan Hermit
    Being grown-up means not
    asking questions like that.
[18:39] Swan Hermit
    My nugget of wisdom, revised edition!
[18:41] Shizuru
    A new map?
[18:42] Swan Hermit
    That's right.
[18:43] Swan Hermit
    If you're headed to Ikebukuro,
    I'm sure it'll be of use.
[18:47] Reimi
    Then this is thanks for the map.
[18:48] Reimi
    Take it with you.
[18:49] Reimi
    We'll probably be able to find more food,
    but I dunno about you.
[18:53] Nadeshiko
    This as well.
[18:54] Nadeshiko
    There's no guarantee that it won't
    be cold wherever you end up.
[18:58] Swan Hermit
    I'll happily accept those.
[19:00] Akira
    You say that, but we might suddenly
    run into each other again tomorrow.
[19:03] Swan Hermit
    That's also possible.
[19:04] Swan Hermit
    Nothing is certain in this world of ours.
[19:07] Nadeshiko
    Be careful!
[19:08] Swan Hermit
    I could say the same to you.
[19:10] Shizuru
    What?
[19:10] Swan Hermit
    If you think Ikebukuro is safe and bustling
    because of its expansion, you're dead wrong.
[19:15] Swan Hermit
    It's the complete opposite!
[19:16] Shizuru
    What do you mean?
[19:17] Swan Hermit
    Its citizens can't escape,
    so they're trapped inside.
[19:20] Swan Hermit
    I'm out here purely due to a stroke of luck!
[19:23] Swan Hermit
    The Witch Queen of Ikebukuro
    is like staring into an abyss!
[19:26] Reimi
    Abyss?
[19:28] Swan Hermit
    She's made up of mystery,
    fear, and the unknown.
[19:31] Nadeshiko
    By the Witch of Ikebukuro,
    do you mean Yoka-chan?
[19:34] Swan Hermit
    That may very well have been
    her name, but I forget!
[19:37] Shizuru
    Yoka would never do anything bad!
[19:39] Swan Hermit
    People change. As does the world.
[19:42] Swan Hermit
    Do you know of anything
    that always stays the same?
[19:45] Shizuru
    Sure I do!
[19:47] Swan Hermit
    I see.
[19:48] Swan Hermit
    But that only appears to be the same.
[19:51] Akira
    Since anything unchanging must always
    be moving to stay where it is...
[19:56] Swan Hermit
    Exactly.
[19:57] Swan Hermit
    Nothing is eternal or indestructible.
[19:59] Reimi
    Why do you have to ruin
    the mood at the very end?
[20:02] Swan Hermit
    Forget what I said, then!
[20:03] Akira
    Not happening!
[20:03] Akira
    We already heard you!
[20:05] Swan Hermit
    I want to learn about the ever-changing,
[20:08] Swan Hermit
    and you want to restore the indestructible.
[20:10] Swan Hermit
    That's what makes this interesting!
[20:12] Swan Hermit
    If I find Nishi-Agano, which lies
    beyond your hometown of Agano,
[20:17] Swan Hermit
    or if I unexpectedly run into the
    Seibu Shinjuku or Tobu Tojo line,
[20:22] Swan Hermit
    that's when I'll head back!
[20:23] Swan Hermit
    With that, fare thee well!
[20:25] Akira
    He left with a cool line.
[20:27] Nadeshiko
    How exactly is he planning to go back?
[20:29] Shizuru
    Who knows...
[20:36] Nadeshiko
    Kusamochi?
[20:37] Reimi
    What? Sounds tasty!
[20:38] Akira
    What's this one, then?
[20:39] Akira
    Curry?
[20:40] Akira
    But it's in a bowl.
[20:41] Shizuru
    I can tell he looked into all of this,
[20:43] Shizuru
    but that hermit's drawings
    really aren't great.
[20:45] Reimi
    I want some kusamochi!
[20:46] Reimi
    With chunky anko!
[20:47] Akira
    What? It's gotta be smooth!
[20:48] Reimi
    You don't get it.
[20:49] Reimi
    The real experts like it chunky!
[20:50] Nadeshiko
    Do you think Yoka-chan is doing okay?
[20:55] Reimi
    I'm sure she is.
[20:56] Nadeshiko
    I'm worried, since something
    seemed off about her.
[20:59] Nadeshiko
    In the photo, she looked
    completely different.
[21:02] Akira
    I wonder why they're calling her
    the Witch of Ikebukuro.
[21:05] Shizuru
    I think it must be some sort of
    mix-up or mistake. Gotta be!
[21:09] Reimi
    Yeah, totally.
[21:10] Reimi
    Yoka-chan's always been so quiet!
[21:12] Reimi
    No way she could be the witch!
[21:13] Nadeshiko
    Maybe Yoka-chan got involved
    with some bad people.
[21:28] Pochi
    What do you want?
[21:29] Pontaro
    I received a report from Oizumi-gakuen.
[21:31] Pontaro
    There are some annoying pests
    on their way to Ikebukuro.
[21:35] Pontaro
    It seems they know the princess.
[21:37] Pontaro
    It'll be a big problem if she meets her
    old friends and regains her memories.
[21:41] Pontaro
    I've placed Shiinamachi on high alert,
    but we need to be extra careful.
[21:45] Pontaro
    Be prepared to eliminate them.
[21:47] Pontaro
    Your job is to protect the princess.
[21:50] Pochi
    I know that.
[22:01] Yoka
    What am I doing?
[22:05] Yoka
    Why am I in a place like this?

[00:06] Reimi
    All of these are right!
[00:08] Reimi
    The mushroom and zombie were on point.
[00:10] Reimi
    And this white circle...
[00:11] Reimi
    It's not a meat bun, it's a golf ball.
[00:14] Reimi
    This funny-looking one's a jizo statue,
[00:16] Reimi
    which means the stops coming up...
[00:18] Akira
    Kusamochi and a bowl of curry?
[00:19] Nadeshiko
    They might be completely different.
[00:21] Nadeshiko
    His other pictures weren't
    very good, either.
[00:23] Reimi
    But I'm sure he's right!
[00:24] Akira
    Then the world disappearing...
[00:26] Reimi
    That part's wrong!
[00:28] Akira
    I knew it'd happen, but not this quickly.
[00:30] Reimi
    Don't scare us like that!
[00:32] Akira
    I didn't come up with it.
[00:33] Reimi
    It sounds even more true when
    it's coming from you. No thanks.
[00:36] Nadeshiko
    What if, though?
[00:37] Nadeshiko
    If the world was going to end,
    when would it happen?
[00:41] Nadeshiko
    Do you think it'll be after
    we turn into animals?
[00:43] Reimi
    It better not be sooner!
[00:44] Reimi
    We're on our way to find Yoka-chan now!
[00:47] Nadeshiko
    That's right.
[00:48] Nadeshiko
    I'd like to read Akira-chan's travelogue, too.
[00:50] Reimi
    I bet that old guy's just making stuff up.
[00:53] Akira
    But he showed up in front of us
    when he was headed the other way.
[00:56] Reimi
    Could he have a twin?
[00:57] Akira
    It's gonna happen. The end of the world.
[01:01] Reimi
    Then...
[01:01] Reimi
    Today might be my last chance for this.
[01:04] Akira
    Cut it out with those hands!
[01:05] Reimi
    It's the last time, so I won't stop,
    even if you complain!
[01:08] Reimi
    Tickle, tickle!

    Stop before you start fighting!

[04:47] Reimi
    Mister, mister!
[04:48] Reimi
    I've gotten pretty tall too, right?
[04:49] Shizuru's Father
    Sure have!
[04:51] Shizuru's Father
    Nadeko-chan's grown up as well.
[04:52] Shizuru's Father
    Akira-chan...
[04:53] Shizuru's Father
    Akira-chan's pretty much the same.
[05:00] Shizuru's Father
    Pochi-san's scarier than I remember.
[05:03] Shizuru's Father
    He's big enough to gobble me up, kyurun!
[05:04] Reimi
    Look, look!
[05:05] Reimi
    We drove that thing here!
    Isn't that awesome?
[05:07] Shizuru's Father
    That's one feisty ride you've got there.
[05:10] Reimi
    Not surprised at all, huh?
[05:11] Shizuru's Father
    Just look around you.
[05:12] Shizuru's Father
    It'll take more to make me
    quake in my boots.
[05:14] Shizuru
    Oh, yeah. Mom said that if I ran into you,
[05:17] Shizuru
    I'm to tell you to snap out
    of it and come home.
[05:20] Reimi
    Now he's quaking in his boots.
[05:21] Shizuru's Father
    Was she mad?
[05:22] Shizuru
    She was fed up.
[05:23] Shizuru's Father
    What do I do?
[05:24] Shizuru's Father
    She's even scarier like that!
[05:25] Shizuru
    Beats me.
[05:26] Shizuru's Father
    I told her I was going to just
    scope things out, kyurun.
[05:29] Shizuru
    It's been two years.
[05:30] Shizuru's Father
    But, but...
[05:31] Shizuru's Father
    I've sent back a few letters!
[05:32] Shizuru
    Those don't count as letters.
SIGN    I'm gonna be a little longer
[05:34] Shizuru
    Mom had no words.
[05:36] Eisaku
    Is everyone in Agano doing well, shupi?
[05:38] Reimi
    Yeah, totally!
[05:39] Reimi
    Masaharu-san gets a little carnivorous
    once in a while, though.
[05:42] Eisaku
    That's Masa for you.
[05:43] Eisaku
    He's always been like that.
[05:45] Hide-bo
    Even we have our animal
    instincts take over at times.
[05:47] Hide-bo
    Masa-san's got it worse.
[05:49] Shizuru
    So, what have you been doing all this time?
[05:51] Shizuru's Father
    Taking a break.
[05:52] Shizuru's Father
    Both we and our cart took
    a real beating, kyurun.
[05:55] Shizuru
    Seriously, why do you keep saying "kyurun"?!
[05:57] Shizuru
    And why do you look so round now?
[05:58] Shizuru's Father
    Oh, you noticed?
[05:59] Shizuru
    Of course I did!
[06:00] Shizuru's Father
    Well?
[06:01] Shizuru
    It's gross.
[06:02] Shizuru
    That's why I was ignoring it,
    but it's even grosser that you won't stop.
[06:05] Shizuru's Father
    Watch your mouth! I'll get mad,
    even with your friends here!
[06:07] Hide-bo
    Chikura-san, she's right-ccho!
[06:09] Hide-bo
    It really is creepy to have old men
    going "kyurun" or "shupi"!
[06:13] Shizuru's Father
    We kinda... got turned into this.
[06:17] Shizuru
    By who?
[06:17] Shizuru's Father
    The folks in Shiinamachi.
[06:19] Shizuru
    Why?
[06:20] Shizuru's Father
    Well, we ran into a weird
    old guy on the way.
[06:22] Shizuru's Father
    Said Ikebukuro was a real mess.
[06:24] Shizuru's Father
    So we were on our way to check it out, and
    they picked a fight with us in Shiinamachi.
[06:29] Shizuru's Father
    I don't get it, but I turned all cute.
[06:31] Shizuru
    So you lost?
[06:32] Shizuru's Father
    We didn't lose, kyurun!
[06:33] Shizuru
    No more "kyurun"!
[06:34] Shizuru's Father
    If I wasn't an animal, I'd have trounced
    them with my Agano jiu-jutsu!
[06:38] Shizuru's Father
    I'm telling the truth!
[06:39] Shizuru's Father
    I got one of 'em good!
[06:41] Shizuru's Father
    Look! My battle trophy!
[06:42] Shizuru
    A beret?
[06:43] Shizuru's Father
    They were all wearing these.
[06:45] Shizuru's Father
    Want it?
[06:45] Shizuru
    No thanks.
[06:46] Akira
    I do!
[06:47] Shizuru
    Eh?
[06:47] Shizuru's Father
    Oh, take it. Here.
[06:49] Akira
    Rampo, Guevara...
[06:51] Akira
    A true symbol of rebellion and decadence!
[06:53] Shizuru's Father
    So, what about you?
[06:55] Shizuru's Father
    Did you come out here to find us?
[06:56] Shizuru
    We're going to Ikebukuro.
    To bring Yoka home.
[06:58] Shizuru's Father
    Yoka-chan?
[07:00] Eisaku
    Chikura-san, so was that
    really Yoka-chan, shupi?
[07:02] Shizuru
    You met her?!
[07:03] Shizuru's Father
    We saw her in Shiinamachi.
[07:06] Shizuru's Father
    But, well...
[07:16] Shizuru's Father
    She was like your mother coming home
    late after drinking.
[07:19] Reimi
    Like we'd know that.
[07:20] Shizuru
    And?
[07:21] Shizuru's Father
    That's it.
[07:22] Shizuru's Father
    Things got hairy right after that.
[07:24] Reimi
    Think she's still in Shiinamachi?
[07:25] Shizuru's Father
    Who knows?
[07:27] Shizuru
    Was it even really Yoka?!
[07:29] Shizuru's Father
    Well, when you put it like that, maybe not...
[07:32] Shizuru
    Which is it?!
[07:33] Shizuru's Father
    I don't know, kyurun!
[07:35] Shizuru
    I said, stop it with the "kyurun"!
[07:36] Nadeshiko
    Um...
[07:37] Nadeshiko
    Was there anything you noticed about her?
[07:40] Shizuru's Father
    Oh, she really grew out her hair.
[07:43] Shizuru
    It was long to begin with!
[07:44] Shizuru's Father
    Hey, it almost reached the ground!
[07:46] Shizuru
    That can't have been Yoka, then.
[07:49] Shizuru
    Yoka cuts her own hair.
[07:51] Shizuru
    She's real good at it, too.
[07:55] Shizuru's Father
    Thanks a lot, really.
[07:57] Nadeshiko
    You have short arms,
    so it's the least we could do.
[07:59] Reimi
    Oh, it's Zenjiro-san!
[08:01] Shizuru
    I forgot!
[08:02] Akira
    I couldn't hear it at all.
[08:03] Nadeshiko
    That's Reimi-chan for you.
[08:05] Shizuru's Father
    Zenjiro?
[08:06] Shizuru's Father
    Did he get better, kyurun?
[08:09] Shizuru
    Currently past Higashi-Nagasaki.
[08:12] Zenjiro
    Sounds like they found Shizuru's father.
[08:15] Makoto
    That's not important now!
[08:16] Makoto
    You need to tell them what matters!
[08:18] Zenjiro
    I know that!
[08:20] Shizuru
    Um...
[08:21] Shizuru
    "Stay the course and the
    world will... disappear"?!
[08:25] Reimi
    So it really was true.
[08:27] Shizuru
    "However, put an end to it
    and turn world normal again"?
[08:34] Shizuru
    Maybe we can turn the world back to normal!
[08:38] Shizuru
    "Possible if you stop 7G
    gone haywire in Ikebukuro."
[08:44] Reimi
    Seriously? It's that easy?
[08:45] Zenjiro
    Just wait.
[08:47] Shizuru
    "Looking into a way now..."
[08:50] Shizuru
    "Once we find out, will let you kno—
    choo choo-choo..."
[08:54] Shizuru's Father
    The hell's he mean by "choo choo-choo"?
[08:56] Shizuru
    He still can't talk for long.
[08:58] Shizuru
    Although it's not as bad now.
[08:59] Shizuru's Father
    What's this about turning
    the world normal again?
[09:02] Shizuru's Father
    You mean, if we do something in Ikebukuro,
    I can go back to being human?!
[09:05] Shizuru
    I'm not sure, but he did say Ikebukuro
    was their stronghold or whatever before.
[09:09] Shizuru's Father
    Then I'll go with you, kyurun!
[09:11] Shizuru's Father
    Those beret guys might get
    in our way like before.
[09:14] Shizuru
    You don't need to come with us.
[09:15] Shizuru's Father
    I'd be worried if you kids went alone!
[09:17] Shizuru
    We'll be fine.
[09:18] Shizuru
    I'm still human, you know.
[09:19] Shizuru's Father
    I'm going!
[09:20] Shizuru
    You really don't have to!
[09:21] Shizuru's Father
    I can't leave something this important
    to my daughter and her friends!
[09:24] Shizuru
    We're just going to meet Yoka!
[09:27] Shizuru's Father
    We might be able to turn
    the world back to normal!
[09:29] Shizuru
    That doesn't matter!
[09:31] Shizuru's Father
    What?
[09:32] Shizuru
    I mean, it does! But I don't care!
[09:35] Shizuru's Father
    Kyurun?
[09:38] Nadeshiko
    It's fine, mister.
[09:40] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan's really strong.
[09:42] Shizuru's Father
    Maybe she is, but still...
[09:44] Nadeshiko
    I can use a bow,
[09:46] Nadeshiko
    Akira-chan's a snappy thinker,
[09:48] Nadeshiko
    and Reimi-chan can just plain snap.
[09:50] Reimi
    I'll snap real good.
[09:50] Reimi
    Show 'em some sexy violence.
[09:52] Nadeshiko
    You look weaker than when
    you were a real wolverine.
[09:56] Nadeshiko
    And what's more, you're hurt.
[09:58] Reimi
    If it looks like we can change
    the world back, we will.
[10:01] Shizuru's Father
    That's one laid-back attitude...
[10:03] Eisaku
    Chikura-san.
[10:04] Eisaku
    Girls grow up a lot faster in
    two years than you'd think, shupi.
[10:09] Eisaku
    Have faith in your daughter and let them go.
[10:12] Eisaku
    We should go back to Agano and
    put our families at ease first.
[10:16] Shizuru
    Go and see Mom again.
[10:19] Shizuru
    It'll be too late once you fully turn
    into animals and can't talk.
[10:24] Shizuru's Father
    I guess you've got this in the bag
    with the Agano jiu-jitsu I taught you.
[10:29] Shizuru's Father
    Okay!
[10:29] Shizuru's Father
    Go on, Shizuru!
[10:30] Shizuru's Father
    Avenge your father!
[10:35] Reimi
    Bye-bye!
[10:36] Nadeshiko
    Please be careful!
[10:38] Hide-bo
    Thanks!
[10:38] Shizuru's Father
    Yeah!
[10:39] Eisaku
    You too!
[10:44] Shizuru's Father
    Get 'em good!
[10:47] Hide-bo
    What you said earlier really got to me.
[10:50] Eisaku
    That's what it means to have a family.
[10:52] Hide-bo
    You said it.
[10:54] Hide-bo
    Even though you're a bachelor.
[10:55] Shizuru's Father
    Okay, let's get this cart
    back on the tracks!
[10:57] Group
    Yessir!
[11:02] Reimi
    Man, Shizuru-chan's dad
    hasn't changed at all.
[11:06] Shizuru
    As big of an idiot as always.
[11:07] Reimi
    I thought he was really funny.
[11:10] Nadeshiko
    Wait, what about the tracks
    past Higashi-Agano?
[11:13] Nadeshiko
    The part that's uncrossable now.
[11:14] Shizuru
    I'm sure the water's gone down.
[11:15] Shizuru
    If not, they'll come up with something.
[11:17] Nadeshiko
    You think so?
[11:18] Shizuru
    Dad'll be fine. Even if he is an idiot.
[11:21] Nadeshiko
    That's true.
[11:23] Nadeshiko
    Oh, not the idiot part.
[11:26] Reimi
    You know, what does turning
    the world normal again mean?
[11:29] Reimi
    I don't really get it.
[11:31] Akira
    Isn't it exactly what it sounds like?
[11:33] Nadeshiko
    I think he means going back
    to how things were before 7G.
[11:37] Reimi
    Honestly, I don't know which I prefer now.
[11:40] Reimi
    I did want things to go 
    back if it was possible,
[11:43] Reimi
    but I'd already kinda given up.
[11:45] Reimi
    Things now are pretty
    chill in their own way.
[11:48] Akira
    My travelogue is ending up
    more and more chaotic.
[11:51] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan.
[11:53] Nadeshiko
    I think worse than the world
    not going back to normal
[11:56] Nadeshiko
    would be you and Yoka-chan
    not going back to how you were.
[11:59] Reimi
    Me too!
[12:00] Shizuru
    Yeah.
[12:04] Reimi
    Besides, there's no way we can
    stop 7G from running wild.
[12:08] Akira
    We don't know that yet.
[12:10] Akira
    We could suddenly wake up one day
    and find out we have incredible powers.
[12:14] Reimi
    Like what?
[12:19] Akira
    O sacred bitter melon!
[12:21] Akira
    Gather within me and unleash
    your bitter meloning power!
[12:32] Reimi
    Nothing happened.
[12:34] Reimi
    Akira, you fraud.
[12:36] Reimi
    Ah, that's mine!
[12:39] Reimi
    Give it back!
[12:40] Akira
    Yum.
[12:40] Reimi
    Spit it out!
[12:41] Akira
    Okay, I will.
[12:42] Reimi
    Don't spit it out!
[12:43] Nadeshiko
    Play nice!
[12:52] Reimi
    Hey, the weather's gotten worse.
[12:55] Reimi
    The sky's suddenly gone dark with clouds.
[12:58] Reimi
    It was clear just a minute ago.
[12:59] Nadeshiko
    Oh, you're right.
[13:01] Reimi
    Over there.
[13:03] Nadeshiko
    Huh?
[13:03] Reimi
    Is that Shiinamachi Station?
[13:05] Nadeshiko
    Yeah.
[13:05] Reimi
    What do we do?
[13:06] Nadeshiko
    What do you mean?
[13:07] Reimi
    Should we keep going?
[13:09] Reimi
    Shizuru's dad said they attacked him.
[13:13] Nadeshiko
    Let's go past it!
[13:14] Reimi
    Okay!
[13:14] Nadeshiko
    I'll go tell Shizuru-chan and the others.
[13:16] Nadeshiko
    Oh, you were awake—
[13:22] Nadeshiko
    Reimi-chan!
[13:24] Reimi
    What the heck?
[13:28] Reimi
    We can't get to Ikebukuro like this...
[13:38] Reimi
    Ugh, I don't want to get off.
[13:40] Reimi
    I just know we're gonna
    run into some weirdos.
[13:42] Akira
    Either way, we can't move on.
[13:43] Shizuru
    It's fine!
[13:44] Shizuru
    I'm stronger than my dad.
[13:46] Reimi

    The ones trying to reach Ikebukuro!
[14:45] Tokiwaman A
    Unfortunately, we can't
    let you go to Ikebukuro.
[14:48] Tokiwaman A
    Your path ends here in Shiinamachi,
    where you'll become our art!

    Huh? What's that mean?
[14:53] Nadeshiko
    Become their art...
[14:55] Nadeshiko
    In other words, we're going
    to serve as their art models.
[14:57] Nadeshiko
    They'll probably strip us naked
    and do pervy stuff to us!
[15:00] Reimi
    You're awful!
[15:01] Tokiwaman A
    No, we won't!

    No way!

[15:27] Tokiwaman A
    Exactly!
[15:28] Tokiwaman A
    Alice posed too large of a threat.
[15:30] Tokiwaman A
    Her charisma could have meant

[15:34] Reimi

[15:49] Reimi
    No, you're not!

    She's way over the top now.
[15:52] Nadeshiko
    Over the top in what fashion?!
[15:53] Nadeshiko
    Good heavens! What has befallen me?!
[15:55] Tokiwaman F
    Her mind will soon turn into that
    of the character we invented, as well!
[15:59] Reimi
    Turn her back right now!
[16:00] Tokiwaman A
    No can do!
[16:01] Tokiwaman F
    You can stop its progress
    by leaving this town.
[16:03] Tokiwaman F
    Just turn back already!
[16:05] Shizuru
    It'll be faster to kick their butts
    with Agano jiu-jitsu.
[16:07] Tokiwaman F
    If you can, that is!
[16:08] Tokiwaman F
    Your serialization gets axed here!
[16:13] Reimi
    You're cruisin' for a bruisin' now!
[16:14] Reimi
    I'll send ya to hell!
[16:16] Tokiwawoman
    Hold it! There!
[16:20] Shizuru
    Wuh-oh!
[16:21] Shizuru
    I can't use my jiu-jitsu!
[16:22] Reimi
    But you're one cute cat.
[16:23] Reimi
    I dig it.
[16:24] Nadeshiko
    We must protect Akira-chan at all costs!
[16:26] Akira
    What character will I get turned into?
[16:28] Akira
    If I could pick, ukiyo-e?
[16:29] Akira
    Or maybe something avant-garde,
    like futurism?
[16:32] Tokiwaman A
    My new serialization begins here!
[16:36] Tokiwaman A
    Hmph!
[16:37] Tokiwaman A
    What?!
[16:38] Akira
    Fauvism!
[16:40] Akira
    Cubism!
[16:41] Akira
    German expressionism!
[16:45] Tokiwaman A
    What?!
[16:48] Akira
    Something came out!
[16:49] Tokiwaman A
    Mr. F!
[16:53] Tokiwaman F
    I'm scared! I'm scared!
[16:54] Tokiwaman F
    What is this?
[16:55] Tokiwaman F
    What is this?!
[16:57] Tokiwawoman
    So you know how to use
    the powers of the beret?!
[17:03] Akira
    That's right.
[17:04] Akira
    Surreal Bomber!
[17:05] Reimi
    Oh, she's just pretendin' she knew.
[17:07] Reimi
    I can tell.
[17:08] Nadeshiko
    So the beret possesses powers, they say.
[17:10] Shizuru
    Maybe that's our key to victowy!
[17:12] Tokiwaman A
    Hah! Your pitiful imaginations don't
    stand a chance against us mangaka!
[17:16] Tokiwaman A
    Take this!
[17:17] Tokiwawoman
    Yeah!
[17:18] Tokiwaman F
    Uh-huh!
[17:24] Akira
    Hi-yah!
[17:35] Reimi
    See that?
[17:36] Reimi
    That's the imagination of Akira,
    the gloomy bookwor—
[17:40] Tokiwaman A
    What is this?
[17:41] Tokiwaman A
    It makes no sense!
[17:42] Tokiwaman F
    You're breaking the conventions here!
[17:44] Reimi
    What's the big idea, Akira?
[17:45] Akira
    Try it out.
[17:46] Akira
    Your thoughts will come to life.
[17:47] Reimi
    Okay.
[17:48] Reimi
    BL Flash!
[17:54] Tokiwaman A
    Mr. F, are you okay?
[17:56] Tokiwaman F
    Don't look at me like that, Mr. A...
[17:59] Tokiwaman A
    Mr. F...
[17:59] Tokiwawoman
    What in the world?
[18:00] Tokiwaman F
    Mr. A...
[18:01] Tokiwawoman
    I like it!
[18:01] Tokiwawoman
    Very nice!
[18:03] Nadeshiko
    Sparkly Spur!
[18:07] Tokiwaman A
    What's this?
[18:08] Tokiwaman A
    I suddenly feel like I shouldn't be here...
[18:10] Tokiwaman F
    Like there's no demand for us!
[18:11] Tokiwawoman
    Hey, that's not true!
[18:13] Shizuru
    Hot-Bwooded Fire!
[18:15] Shizuru
    Pew pew!
[18:19] Tokiwaman A
    We're going to lose at this rate!
[18:20] Tokiwaman F
    Time to show our guts and fight!
[18:21] Tokiwaman F
    Prepare yourselves!
[18:23] Tokiwawoman
    I'll follow you to the ends of the Earth!
[18:24] Tokiwaman A
    We don't need no stinking berets!
[18:31] Tokiwaman A
    It can't be!
[18:31] Tokiwaman F
    What sloppy plotting!
[18:33] Tokiwawoman
    It's sacrilege! Utter sacrilege!
[18:34] Shizuru
    Why are you twying to stop us, anyway?
[18:37] Reimi
    Yeah, exactamundo!
[18:38] Reimi
    Is it 'cause we got that charisma thing
    you were jawin' about with Alice?
[18:41] Tokiwaman A
    Not in the slightest!
[18:43] Tokiwawoman
    We were given the powers of the beret,
    so we have to follow orders!
[18:45] Tokiwawoman
    That's all it is!
[18:46] Nadeshiko
    You were given powers? Truly?
[18:48] Shizuru
    What's aww that about?
[18:49] Tokiwawoman
    It seems we have no choice...
[18:51] Tokiwawoman
    but to tell our tale.
[18:53] Reimi
    You can keep it to yerselves!
[18:54] Reimi
    Just answer our questions.
[18:56] Tokiwawoman
    How many years ago was it?
[18:57] Reimi
    I just said, save it!
[18:59] Tokiwaman A
    We came to this place with grand ambitions!
[19:02] (Flashback) Tokiwaman A
    We'll change the world with manga!
[19:05] Tokiwaman F
    But for some reason, our art
    styles weren't well-received,
[19:08] Tokiwaman F
    and they weren't popular in the least.
[19:10] Tokiwaman F
    Days and months of fruitless effort passed by.
[19:14] (Flashback) Tokiwawoman
    Stories should follow convention.
[19:16] (Flashback) Tokiwawoman
    Clichés are what move people the most.
[19:18] Tokiwaman A
    But those no-good editors dismissed us,
    calling us out-of-date...
[19:21] Tokiwaman A
    Wait, what?!
[19:23] Tokiwaman A
    Seriously?
[19:23] Tokiwaman A
    You're seriously going to
    skip the explanation?!
[19:25] Tokiwaman F
    No one moves during a flashback!
[19:27] Tokiwaman F
    That's convention, right there!
[19:28] Tokiwawoman
    We haven't even gotten to 7G happening!
[19:31] Tokiwaman A
    Or how these powers are a paid subscription,
[19:33] Tokiwaman A
    or the most important part,
    who gave us them!
[19:36] Akira
    We'll manage somehow.
[19:38] Group
    D'oh!
[19:39] Akira
    Artistic expression has no limits!
[19:47] Tokiwaman A
    Even if changing times lead to
    all sorts of constraints...
[19:51] Tokiwaman F
    New forms of expression
    in manga will be born!
[19:53] Tokiwawoman
    We were the ones who had given up all along!
[19:56] Reimi
    They've found enlightenment somehow.
[19:58] Nadeshiko
    A matter of no import.
    Return us to normal posthaste.
[20:00] Shizuru
    Hey, hey!
[20:01] Shizuru
    Have you seen this girl befowe?
[20:05] Tokiwaman A
    You really do know the queen?!
[20:07] Shizuru
    Yoka's our fwiend!
[20:08] Shizuru
    We're on our way to find her!
[20:10] Tokiwaman A
    That's absurd!
[20:11] Tokiwaman A
    She's not someone who
    nobodies like you can meet!
[20:15] Tokiwaman F
    They say the queen is the mother
    of Ikebukuro as we know it,
[20:18] Tokiwaman F
    not to mention the mighty being
    who gave us these powers!
[20:23] Tokiwawoman
    You're a threat to the queen
    and this very world itself!
[20:27] Tokiwawoman
    That's what Pontaro-sama told us!
[20:29] Shizuru
    Pontaro?
[20:30] Reimi
    Who's that?
[20:30] Tokiwawoman
    You can see him right there!
[20:32] Tokiwawoman
    The not-so-tall one next to her!
[20:35] Shizuru
    Pontaro...
[20:36] Tokiwaman A
    Anyway, if you value your lives,
[20:37] Tokiwaman A
    don't do anything to upset the queen!
[20:40] Tokiwaman A
    She'll turn you into egg custard!

[20:45] Tokiwaman A
    Literally what it says!
[20:46] Akira
    It really was a form of torture...
[20:47] Reimi
    Yoka-chan would never do that!
[20:49] Shizuru
    Pontaro! I wemember now!
[20:52] Shizuru
    Zenjiro-san mentioned him!
[20:54] (Flashback) Zenjiro
    That damn rotten dunghead Pontaro!
[20:57] (Flashback) Zenjiro
    How many times did I tell him
    to give up on 7G?
[20:59] Shizuru
    So he's the one wesponsible for 7G?
[21:02] Reimi
    For real?
[21:03] Reimi
    What's Yoka-chan doin' with a fink like him?
[21:06] Shizuru
    I weally don't know!
[21:07] Akira
    An evil vizier!
[21:09] Reimi
    A weevil is here?
[21:10] Reimi
    What d'ya mean?
[21:11] Nadeshiko
    You mean Yoka-chan is being
    hoodwinked by that scoundrel?
[21:14] Akira
    Or rather, being manipulated by him?
[21:16] Akira
    But the Yoka-chan we know
    would never trust him.
[21:19] Shizuru
    7G...
[21:21] Akira
    There is a chance that it plays a role here.
[21:23] Nadeshiko
    Then that means we definitely need
    to put a stop to it, does it not?
[21:27] Reimi
    This is way over my head, dudettes.
[21:35] Reimi
    We're back to normal!
[21:36] Nadeshiko
    Seems like it.
[21:37] Tokiwaman A
    We canceled the subscription for our powers.
[21:40] Tokiwawoman
    Fine by me. That thing cost a fortune.
[21:59] Shizuru
    So that's...

    At least it's regular rain.

    No one hurt?

    Do you like bitter melon?
[03:38] Pochi
    No, I wouldn't say that.
[03:41] Pochi
    Do you not like bitter melon, Yoka-sama?
[03:43] Pochi
    If so, in the future...
[03:44] Yoka
    I'm fine with it.
[03:46] Yoka
    It just gives me a strange feeling.
[03:49] Pochi
    Strange in what way?
[03:51] Yoka
    I'm not so sure myself.
[03:53] Yoka
    It's not like I've eaten it that often,
    but it feels nostalgic in a way.
[03:57] Yoka
    That's why I said it's strange.
[03:59] Pochi
    I see.

    Where'd you say this was from?
[04:04] Pochi
    Well...

[04:14] Shizuru

[04:17] Shizuru
    Excuse me.
[04:18] Shizuru
    Could we have a moment of your time?
[04:20] Shizuru
    We're looking for someone
    named Nakatomi Yoka.
[04:26] Reimi
    Whoa, he's huge.
[04:27] Akira
    A kitchen smock?
[04:28] Nadeshiko
    Behave, now.
[04:33] Reimi
    Huh? What is it?
[04:36] Yoka
    What's wrong?
[04:37] Yoka
    Is it that Kontaro again?
[04:45] Shizuru
    Yo...
[05:07] Yoka
    How cute.
[05:09] Yoka
    Is this your dog?
[05:11] Yoka
    I had a dog a long time ago.
[05:13] Yoka
    His name was Pochi-san.
[05:14] Yoka
    What's your name?
[05:18] Reimi
    Hey, this is Pochi-san!
[05:20] Reimi
    How can you not tell?!
[05:22] Nadeshiko
    We came from Agano to find you, Yoka-chan.
[05:25] Akira
    You're Yoka-chan, aren't you?
[05:39] Yoka
    Who are you people?
[05:42] Shizuru
    Could it be you're still mad?
[05:47] Yoka
    About what?
[05:48] Yoka
    Why would I be mad?
[05:51] Shizuru
    Well...
[06:08] Yoka
    I suddenly feel... really terrible...
[06:12] Yoka
    Like something's stabbing my chest...
[06:15] Nadeshiko
    Wait, Yoka-chan.
[06:16] Nadeshiko
    Do you not recognize us?
[06:18] Reimi
    No way! Amnesia?
[06:20] Akira
    Did she get wibble-wobble surgery,
    like Zenjiro-san?

    Oh, no!

    My name is Nakatomi Yoka.
[06:31] Yoka
    I'm in high school, and I love astronomy.

    My name is Nakatomi Yoka...
[07:05] Shizuru
    Listen to me, Yoka!
[07:06] Shizuru
    You see—
[07:08] Vigilante
    Found them.
[07:11] Pontaro
    I didn't think you'd find her so soon.
[07:13] Pontaro
    Annoying vermin, out to harm the princess!
[07:16] Pontaro
    Such impudence, before our
    very own Yoka-hime!
[07:18] Pontaro
    You're a real pack of scoundrels!
[07:20] Pontaro
    That is to say, enemies!
[07:22] Pontaro
    Take them down!
[07:23] Pontaro
    In other words, pulverize them!

    Hey, they mean business!

[07:37] Pontaro
    Are you injured, Princess?
[07:39] Yoka
    Not really.
[07:44] Pontaro
    Why would you keep something
    so important here?!
[07:47] Pontaro
    You birdbrain!
[07:48] Pontaro
    What's the meaning of this?
[07:50] Pontaro
    It's them...

    It must be!

    Capture those girls!

    Make sure they don't escape!

    Get moving!

    Hurry, hurry, hurry!
[08:07] Pontaro
    Why'd you let them get away?!
[08:09] Pontaro
    I'll tell the princess to turn
    all of you into tokoroten!
[08:13] Pontaro
    Not good, not good.
[08:15] Pontaro
    Looking at the button and her reaction,
    it's best to separate the two.
[08:19] Pontaro
    And here I thought I was being cautious.
[08:21] Pontaro
    I was a fool, damn it!
[08:26] Pochi
    You called?
[08:28] Pontaro
    What kind of question is that?
[08:30] Pontaro
    You big lunk.
[08:31] Pontaro
    We're moving the princess
    to another location.
[08:34] Pochi
    Why?
[08:34] Pontaro
    Because those girls who 
    got away, thanks to you,
[08:36] Pontaro
    might come back and steal her away!
[08:38] Pontaro
    Isn't it obvious?!
[08:40] Pochi
    She may not agree to that.
[08:43] Pochi
    She's quite fond of that apartment.
[08:46] Pontaro
    Who cares how fond or attached she is to it?!
[08:49] Pontaro
    What, you think you can protect the princess?!
[08:51] Pochi
    Of course.
[08:52] Pontaro
    If they touch a single hair on
    her head, you'll pay the price!
[08:56] Pontaro
    Hey!
[08:57] Pontaro
    Get me a hand trolley!
[08:58] Pontaro
    And some security guards!
[09:02] Reimi
    You think maybe that wasn't Yoka-chan?
[09:05] Akira
    Huh?
[09:06] Reimi
    I mean, something's up.
[09:07] Reimi
    That Yoka-chan was weird.
[09:09] Reimi
    She didn't even know who we were.
[09:12] Nadeshiko
    Something was weird about her, but...
[09:15] Shizuru
    I'm pretty sure that was the real Yoka.
[09:18] Nadeshiko
    I agree.
[09:19] Nadeshiko
    Pochi-san thought it was her, too.
[09:22] Akira
    It's gotta be Yoka-chan.
[09:24] Reimi
    So was she just seriously angry, then?
[09:27] Reimi
    Is she ghosting us?
[09:28] Akira
    Ghosting us?
[09:30] Shizuru
    Maybe.
[09:31] Shizuru
    If I was in her shoes, I probably would.
[09:36] Reimi
    Huh? What?
[09:38] Akira
    This is Morse. Morse code!
[09:41] Akira
    It's Zenjiro-san and Makoto-sensei!
[09:43] Reimi
    Why are they using bitter melon?
[09:45] Akira
    The roots and vines might have grown
    to connect all the way to Agano.
[09:49] Reimi
    What?
[09:50] Reimi
    From here to Agano?
[09:54] Reimi
    Bitter melon's unstoppable!
[09:55] Nadeshiko
    So what's Makoto-sensei saying?
[09:57] Akira
    "Slice up a bitter melon."
[09:59] Reimi
    Huh?
[10:00] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan, knife.
[10:04] Makoto
    Test, test.
[10:07] Akira
    What?
[10:08] Shizuru
    The bitter melon is talking
    with Makoto-sensei's voice!
[10:10] Akira
    Are we even speaking the
    same language anymore?
[10:14] Makoto
    Not so loud! I can hear you!
[10:17] Reimi
    Makoto-sensei!
[10:19] Reimi
    Hey! Can you see me?
[10:21] Makoto
    No. This is a voice-only line.
[10:24] Reimi
    Too bad.
[10:25] Zenjiro
    We figured out how to turn
    the world back to normal.
[10:27] Reimi
    Huh? Who's that?
[10:28] Akira
    That's Zenjiro-san!
[10:30] Nadeshiko
    You figured it out?
[10:31] Makoto
    We haven't found proof,
    but it's a fairly credible hypothesis.
[10:35] Zenjiro
    The 7G launch should have begun
    with a switch—a button.
[10:39] Zenjiro
    And that button has been
    pressed on this whole time.
[10:42] Makoto
    Which means if we push it
    once more to turn it off...
[10:45] Nadeshiko
    If we push it?
[10:46] Makoto
    It should cut off the 7G network.
[10:48] Makoto
    The effects of its signal should disappear.
[10:51] Makoto
    In other words, we might
    go back to how things were.
[10:54] Akira
    That's all?
[10:55] Reimi
    No way!
[10:56] Reimi
    That's too easy!
[10:58] Makoto
    Precisely why we had overlooked it.
[11:00] Makoto
    We had our hands full dealing
    with each individual phenomenon,
[11:03] Makoto
    leaving us with no time to identify
    the fundamental cause behind it all.
[11:06] Nadeshiko
    I suppose that's true.
[11:07] Akira
    Where's that button, then?
[11:09] Zenjiro
    We don't know.
[11:11] Zenjiro
    That said, if I were Pontaro,
[11:13] Zenjiro
    I'd hide it and implement
    strict security measures.
[11:16] Makoto
    In a battle between those
    preserving the new status quo
[11:19] Makoto
    and those trying to return to the old ways,
[11:21] Makoto
    the winner is decided by
    whoever has that button.
[11:24] Makoto
    We'll contact you again
    once we have more information.
[11:27] Makoto
    Make sure you eat the bitter melon
    you used for this call.
[11:30] Group
    Yes.
[11:31] Zenjiro
    Don't let that food go to wast—
    choo choo-choo choo...
[11:35] Reimi
    Huh? He's back to the usual Zenjiro-san.
[11:37] Makoto
    I've been able to extend his time in anti-
    choo-choo mode to 5 minutes and 38 seconds.
[11:42] Reimi
    That's incredible!
[11:44] Makoto
    No, I'm still far off from
    complete anti-choo-choo.
[11:47] Akira
    If you keep on extending it,
    will he go back to normal?
[11:49] Makoto
    My calculations say it'll take 94 years.
[11:53] Akira
    I see.
[11:55] Akira
    We need to think about this.
[11:56] Reimi
    Any way you look at it, Zenjiro-san's
    not gonna be around in 94 years, is he?
[12:00] Akira
    Not about that.
[12:01] Nadeshiko
    You mean the button?
[12:03] Akira
    Basically, there exists something
    along the lines of the nuclear football.
[12:07] Reimi
    Huh? What's that?
[12:08] Akira
    A device that allows the president
    to launch nuclear weapons.
[12:11] Akira
    His security detail carries it at all times.
[12:13] Reimi
    Isn't that risky?
[12:15] Reimi
    What if someone steals it from them?
[12:17] Akira
    There are loads of books and
    movies about exactly that,
[12:19] Akira
    but it's never happened in real life.
[12:21] Nadeshiko
    Hey...
[12:22] Nadeshiko
    Do you think that button is why
    Yoka-chan was acting so distant?
[12:26] Reimi
    What do you mean?
[12:27] Nadeshiko
    If the world changed
    with the push of a button,
[12:29] Nadeshiko
    then maybe if we press it again
    and turn it off,
[12:31] Nadeshiko
    both the world and Yoka-chan
    will go back to normal.
[12:33] Reimi
    Oh, I get it now!
[12:35] Reimi
    So that's why she was being so nasty!
[12:37] Akira
    Hold on.
[12:38] Akira
    Is that really it?
[12:39] Reimi
    Well, that's the only explanation!
[12:42] Akira
    How simple of you.
[12:43] Akira
    People change.
[12:44] Reimi
    But it's worth a shot.
[12:45] Shizuru
    I want to find that button.
[12:48] Shizuru
    If it really is worth a shot,
    I'm going to go for it.
[12:50] Reimi
    Sounds good! I'm all for it!
[12:52] Akira
    What if...
[12:53] Reimi
    There goes Akira with
    her ifs, ands, or buts!
[12:55] Akira
    Hear me out!
[12:56] Akira
    It's all well and good to try and find
    the button, but where do we even look?
[12:59] Akira
    We have two missions here:
    locating it, and taking it for ourselves.
[13:08] Reimi
    Huh?
[13:09] Reimi
    The zombies?
[13:13] Reimi
    It's Kurokin!
[13:15] Reimi
    But how?
[13:17] Kuroki
    It's been a while.
[13:19] Kuroki
    After you left, the climate changed
    drastically near Hoya Station.
[13:23] Kuroki
    If left there, the zombies
    would have grown rotten and moldy
[13:26] Kuroki
    or dried up and crumbled away.
[13:29] Reimi
    Zombies are pretty dainty, huh?
[13:31] Reimi
    Who knew?
[13:31] Shizuru
    And so you want to team up with us?
[13:34] Kuroki
    Our power comes from our numbers.
[13:36] Kuroki
    And you have brains? I guess?
[13:39] Akira
    Why do you sound so unsure?
[13:40] Nadeshiko
    We just heard from Makoto-sensei,
    the brains on our team,
[13:43] Nadeshiko
    and the answer to our problems may lie
    in finding the button to stop 7G.
[13:47] Reimi
    The brains on our team? Huh?
[13:49] Akira
    That makes you the dumb muscle.
[13:51] Kuroki
    Where do we find that button?
[13:53] Nadeshiko
    We don't know.
[13:54] Nadeshiko
    But it's powerful enough to have turned
    the entire world into what it is now.
[13:57] Nadeshiko
    So it should be pretty big.
[13:59] Reimi
    Oh, like a sake barrel?
[14:01] Kuroki
    A sake barrel?
[14:03] Shizuru
    What's up?
[14:03] Kuroki
    Well...
[14:04] Kuroki
    When we were passing by
    the department store...
[14:09] Kuroki
    Huh? What's wrong?!
[14:18] Kuroki
    The zombies showed interest in something
    other than brains and cauliflower.
[14:22] Kuroki
    Zombies want to go back to being human.
[14:25] Kuroki
    Perhaps they were reacting to the
    button that has that potential.
[14:31] Kuroki
    There's a good chance that
    what I saw was that button.
[14:34] Akira
    Huh... But there's also a chance it wasn't.
[14:36] Reimi
    That department store, huh?
[14:38] Reimi
    I've never been.
[14:39] Akira
    Huh?
[14:40] Reimi
    What was it? "Life should be trendy"?
[14:42] Reimi
    And "Fall in love with yourself"?
[14:43] Reimi
    I've wanted to go ever since I saw
    those ad slogans a long time ago.
[14:46] Akira
    What, you're dying to go?
[14:47] Reimi
    We came all this way to Ikebukuro!
[14:49] Reimi
    What's wrong with taking a look?
[14:51] Akira
    You just want to check out
    the department store!
[14:53] Akira
    To go shopping!
[14:54] Reimi
    Just on the side!
[14:56] Reimi
    I'll look for that button, too!
[14:57] Akira
    You big, fat liar!
[14:58] Nadeshiko
    I wouldn't put it past Pontaro to hide it.
[15:01] Nadeshiko
    He was acting real high-and-mighty.
[15:03] Kuroki
    Poison Pontaro?
[15:04] Kuroki
    I've heard nothing but
    sketchy rumors about him.
[15:06] Shizuru
    Zenjiro-san called him a poopy dunghead, too.
[15:09] Shizuru
    Said he thinks about nothing but himself.
[15:12] Nadeshiko
    He's involved with 7G, isn't he?
[15:15] Nadeshiko
    But he's not trying to fix it.
    He's lording over everyone instead.
[15:18] Akira
    Well, who'd want to be held responsible
    for creating this huge mess?
[15:22] Reimi
    How awful can you be, not taking
    responsibility for what you did?!
[15:26] Kuroki
    I see, like a zombie. In a bad sense.
[15:28] Shizuru
    What?
[15:29] Kuroki
    Short-sighted, only worried
    about yourself in the present.
[15:32] Kuroki
    No remorse, no thinking ahead.
[15:34] Kuroki
    What's wrong?
[15:36] Shizuru
    It's not... entirely nothing.
[15:39] Nadeshiko
    Should we go to the department store?
[15:40] Reimi
    I'm down!
[15:41] Akira
    What about Yoka-chan?
[15:43] Shizuru
    Maybe she's a lost cause...
[15:44] Group
    What?!
[15:45] Reimi
    A lost cause how?!
[15:47] Shizuru
    She did ghost us...
[15:48] Reimi
    There you go again!
[15:50] Nadeshiko
    Listen, Shizuru-chan.
[15:51] Nadeshiko
    Now's really not the time for this.
[15:53] Akira
    You're scaring me, Nadeko-chan.
[15:55] Nadeshiko
    I want to go see Yoka-chan.
[15:57] Nadeshiko
    Even if you don't, I will!
[15:59] Reimi
    I want to see her, too!
[16:00] Akira
    Weren't you going shopping?
[16:02] Reimi
    Nuh-uh!
[16:02] Nadeshiko
    Are you listening, Shizuru-chan?
[16:04] Shizuru
    Does it matter if I am?
[16:05] Nadeshiko
    You're going to talk to her,
    whether you want to or not.
[16:08] Shizuru
    What?!
[16:09] Group
    What?!
[16:19] Akira
    We'll have to search every nook
    and cranny of this place!
[16:21] Reimi
    Why do you sound so smug?
[16:23] Akira
    I never thought I'd get to say
    "search every nook and cranny" in real life.
[16:26] Reimi
    Ah.
[16:27] Reimi
    Like, "You homewrecker!"
[16:28] Reimi
    Or, "Consider it a parting gift."
[16:30] Kuroki
    I've always wanted to say,
    "What are you, blind?"
[16:33] Reimi
    That's what I'm talking about, Kurokin!
[16:35] Akira
    There's plenty of phrases you
    never get a chance to say.
[16:38] Shizuru
    Phrases you didn't get a chance to say...
[16:41] Nadeshiko
    You need to tell her, Shizuru-chan.
[16:44] Shizuru
    Yeah.
[16:53] Reimi
    What?
[16:53] Akira
    Maybe they found it!
[17:00] Kuroki
    Put these away! Hurry!
[17:02] Employee A
    Can I help you find something?
[17:04] Employee A
    That's one of our top sellers.
[17:06] Employee A
    It'd look great on you.
[17:07] Akira
    Ugh, I can't stand it!
[17:08] Akira
    That insistent smile!
[17:10] Reimi
    There's so many!
[17:11] Kuroki
    They'll chase you down if you run. There's only one way out of this!
[17:15] Kuroki
    I'm just looking!
[17:21] Painting
    World-renowned artists!
[17:22] Painting
    Pay in easy installments!
[17:23] Painting
    Painted by a living treasure...
[17:24] Painting
    A once-in-a-lifetime chance!
[17:26] Akira
    Outta my way!
[17:27] Group
    You can pay for the damage, right?
[17:29] Shizuru
    No way in hell we're paying!
[17:32] Shizuru
    Don't try to sucker us into forking over our cash!
[17:37] Reimi
    The zombies are reacting to something!
[17:39] Kuroki
    Is it the button?!
[17:40] Pontaro
    What was that?!
[17:41] Pontaro
    A suspicious group in the department store?
[17:43] Leader
    The vigilance committee
    is headed there as we speak.
[17:46] Pontaro
    They're really after the button, huh?
[17:48] Pontaro
    Wait, how'd they know where it was?
[17:51] Pontaro
    Do we have a traitor?
[17:53] Pontaro
    By which I mean, an intelligence leak?
[17:55] Leader
    That's unthinkable!
[17:57] Pontaro
    How about this, then?
[18:01] Pontaro
    You understand, don't you?
[18:03] Pontaro
    What's your job?
[18:05] Pochi
    To protect Yoka-sama.
[18:09] Pontaro
    In which case, do away with those brats
[18:11] Pontaro
    and dump their bodies
    all the way out past Zoshigaya!
[18:13] Pontaro
    And protect that button!
[18:15] Pontaro
    If they get ahold of that button,
    this world won't stay the same!
[18:18] Pontaro
    The masses will start violent riots
    and lose all control.
[18:21] Pontaro
    If that happens, your precious
    little Yoka-sama won't be safe.
[18:26] Pontaro
    Protecting the princess and the
    button are essentially the same!
[18:29] Pontaro
    They're equal!
[18:30] Pontaro
    Don't let it fall into their hands!
[18:43] Shizuru
    There's something in the pond!
[18:45] Reimi
    The button!
[18:46] Akira
    Why are they reacting to the button?
[18:48] Kuroki
    They're a product of the changes caused by 7G.
[18:50] Kuroki
    Maybe they're responding to its energy
    or longing for the world we used to live in.
[18:54] Kuroki
    Either way, they can sense it.
[18:56] Nadeshiko
    We just need to push the button, right?
[18:58] Shizuru
    Yeah.
[18:59] Leader
    There they are!
[19:00] Reimi
    Not again!
[19:01] Shizuru
    I'll take care of these guys,
[19:02] Shizuru
    so you go get that button!
[19:03] Nadeshiko
    I'll help you out!
[19:04] Kuroki
    Our job is to grab the button!
[19:14] Akira
    Zombies can't go in water!
    They'll get waterlogged!
[19:25] Shizuru
    Who are you?
[19:26] Pochi
    My name is Pochi.
[19:27] Shizuru
    Pochi?
[19:29] Shizuru
    You're not Pochi...
[19:34] Shizuru
    How?!
[19:35] Pochi
    I feel the same way.
[19:37] Shizuru
    What?!
[19:38] Pochi
    I'll protect Yoka-sama.
[19:52] Shizuru
    Does Yoka...
[19:53] Shizuru
    Does Yoka like things the way they are now?!
[19:56] Pochi
    She devotes herself to studying every day.
[19:58] Reimi
    Still!
[19:59] Reimi
    People call her a witch and stuff!
[20:01] Pochi
    That is not something Yoka-sama
    has to answer for.
[20:10] Pochi
    It doesn't matter what anyone says about her.
[20:13] Pochi
    Yoka-sama is perfectly fine the way she is.
[20:24] Nadeshiko
    Reimi-chan! Shizuru-chan!
[20:29] Akira
    We got the button!
[20:31] Nadeshiko
    Press it!
[20:32] Shizuru
    Hurry!
[20:48] Akira
    Did 7G stop?
[20:57] Kuroki
    It's no use!
[20:58] Akira
    But why?!
[21:00] Shizuru
    No way!
[21:04] Kuroki
    Zombie 35! 72!
[21:06] Kuroki
    Get away!
[21:06] Kuroki
    You're in danger!
[21:11] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan!
[21:13] Nadeshiko
    Don't, Pochi-san!
[21:16] Pochi
    Pochi-san...
[21:17] Pochi
    I can't fight you.
[21:45] Reimi
    What?
[21:50] Reimi
    Yoka-chan!
[21:52] Reimi
    She's on board!
[21:55] Pontaro
    You damn fools.
[21:56] Pontaro
    Ikebukuro is safe and sound.
[21:59] Pontaro
    As long as it has its princess, that is.

[18:13] Swan Hermit
    It'll disappear.
[18:14] Akira
    You mean Ikebukuro? Agano?
[18:16] Swan Hermit
    It'll all disappear.
[18:19] Makoto
    Huh? Hold on.
[18:20] Makoto
    "If 7G isn't stopped,
    even Ikebukuro will disappear."
[18:24] Makoto
    "Must find cause of 7G
    and repair broken world."
[18:30] Makoto
    "Need to ruin Pontaro's future plans
    and put an end to them."
[18:36] Makoto
    If we can't avoid
    annihilation via expansion...
[18:41] Akira
    What happened?!
[18:42] Reimi
    What?

[18:43] Shizuru
    There's something ahead.
[18:50] Shizuru
    Huh?
[18:53] Shizuru
    Dad?
[18:54] Makoto
    That's not important now!
[18:55] Makoto
    You need to tell them what matters!
[18:56] Zenjiro
    I know that!
[18:58] Shizuru
    "The world will... disappear"?!
[19:00] Reimi
    So it really was true.
[19:02] Shizuru
    "However, put an end to it
    and turn world normal again"?
[19:06] Shizuru's Father
    What's this about turning
    the world normal again?
[19:09] Shizuru's Father
    You mean, if we do something in Ikebukuro,
    I can go back to being human?!
[19:12] Shizuru
    That doesn't matter!
[19:14] Shizuru's Father
    What?
[19:15] Shizuru
    I mean, it does! But I don't care!

    Are you okay?
[20:46] Nadeshiko
    No one hurt?
[20:47] Reimi
    We did it, though!

    We've finally arrived in Ikebukuro!

    Excuse me.

    Yoka-sama.
[21:09] Pochi
    Please control yourself.

    Such impudence, before our

[21:12] Pontaro
    You're a real pack of scoundrels!
[21:14] Pontaro
    That is to say, enemies!
[21:16] Pontaro
    Take them down!
[21:17] Pontaro
    Make sure they don't escape!

SIGN    Episode 12       What Was Normal Again?
[00:12] Reimi
    Yoka-chan!
[00:13] Nadeshiko
    What?
[00:14] Reimi
    Over there!
[00:14] Reimi
    Yoka-chan's on that train!
[00:17] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan!
[00:18] Nadeshiko
    He's taking Yoka-chan away!
[00:36] Kuroki
    Looks like Pontaro wants to keep Yoka-chan
    within arm's reach by any means.
[00:41] Nadeshiko
    Is she the key to 7G?
[00:43] Akira
    I see! That's why...
[00:44] Shizuru
    We need to get Yoka back!
[00:48] Shizuru
    It'd be one thing if she chose to go with him,
[00:51] Shizuru
    but if he took her against her will,
    then that's no good!
[00:54] Group
    Yeah.
[01:00] Leader
    Don't let them escape!
[01:01] Leader
    Or else we're all egg custard!
[01:04] Reimi
    Oh, Makoto-sensei.
[01:06] Reimi
    Heya!
[01:07] Makoto
    Pontaro got away?
[01:10] Zenjiro
    What about the button?!
[01:11] Reimi
    It was hidden away in a fishy place,
    but pushing it didn't do anything.
[01:15] Zenjiro
    No! If you're going after him,
    take it with you!
[01:17] Nadeshiko
    Yoka-chan's more important right now!
[01:19] Reimi
    It'd be a pain to go back for it.
[01:20] Zenjiro
    What's your goal here?
[01:22] Reimi
    Bringing Yoka-chan back?
[01:24] Akira
    Yeah!
[01:24] Nadeshiko
    And turning the world back to normal?
[01:27] Akira
    That's a part of it too, I guess.
[01:28] Zenjiro
    Pontaro's not as smart as he thinks he is.
[01:31] Zenjiro
    His actions are simple.
[01:33] Zenjiro
    He hid the button because it's important.
[01:34] Zenjiro
    End of story.
[01:35] Makoto
    What's more,
[01:36] Makoto
    he was forced to run away without
    that all-important button.
[01:41] Yoka
    Ugh, why am I...
[01:43] Pontaro
    Princess!
[01:44] Pontaro
    Princess, Princess!
[01:45] Pontaro
    There's no need to worry!
[01:47] Pontaro
    You're in safe hands with me.
[01:49] Yoka
    Worry? About what?
[01:53] Pontaro
    You know, those scoundrels!
[01:55] Yoka
    Scoundrels...
[01:56] Pontaro
    Yes, yes!
[01:56] Pontaro
    They posed a threat to your safety!
[01:59] Pontaro
    But please rest assured.
[02:01] Pontaro
    I, Pontaro, will wholeheartedly
    exert my utmost efforts!
[02:04] Pontaro
    Now then, I'm off to assess the situation!
[02:07] Pontaro
    Please feel free to carry on
    as normal, Princess!
[02:10] Yoka
    As normal...
[02:12] Yoka
    What was normal again?
[02:14] Yoka
    Sleeping, waking up, eating, studying...
[02:18] Yoka
    And then... there was someone...
[02:23] Yoka
    What was that?!
[02:25] Yoka
    Pochi!
[02:26] Yoka
    Come here! Are you gone?
[02:28] Kuroki
    So that button was significant, too?
[02:31] Reimi
    Significant...
[02:32] Reimi
    Is it some kind of special button?
[02:34] Akira
    Other than just activating 7G...
[02:37] Shizuru
    Maybe we need both Yoka and the button?
[02:41] Akira
    I see, they form a set!
[02:43] Reimi
    What's that mean?
[02:43] Kuroki
    It's probably related to why they
    call her the Witch of Ikebukuro.
[02:48] Nadeshiko
    In other words, Yoka-chan
    pressed the button,
[02:50] Nadeshiko
    the button gave Yoka-chan her powers,
[02:53] Nadeshiko
    and then it changed the world?
[02:54] Reimi
    Oh, you're so smart!
[02:56] Akira
    That must be it.
[02:57] Zenjiro
    That's right!
[02:58] Zenjiro
    It needs to be the same person
    who pushes the butto—
[03:02] Makoto
    Nakatomi Yoka pressed the button,
[03:04] Makoto
    so you need to have her press it again.
[03:06] Makoto
    I suspect that's the only way to turn both
    the world and Nakatomi Yoka back to normal.
[03:18] Reimi
    Impressive.
[03:34] Reimi
    There's two paths!
[03:35] Reimi
    Um, which way do we go again?
[03:37] Shizuru
    Um, um...
[03:39] Shizuru
    What?
[03:40] Shizuru
    You know the way, Pochi-san?
[03:42] Reimi
    Way to go, Pochi-san!
[03:50] Pontaro
    She's been acting up a lot lately.
[03:53] Pontaro
    I need her to be a good
    little puppet, or else...
[04:08] Pontaro
    Damn it!
[04:09] Pontaro
    They sure are stubborn!
[04:11] Pontaro
    It's me. Where are you?!
[04:12] Pontaro
    Get your butts over here!
[04:14] Shizuru
    Yoka...
[04:15] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan, this isn't good!
[04:59] Shizuru
    Yoka!
[05:01] Group
    Yoka-chan!
[05:03] Shizuru
    Yoka!
[05:04] Akira
    It's no good! She can't hear us!
[05:09] Pontaro
    You pesky brats!
[05:11] Pontaro
    I won't let you have the princess!
[05:20] Reimi
    Huh? What?
[05:56] Shizuru
    My mind is set!
[05:57] Reimi
    What?
[05:57] Shizuru
    I'm getting on that train!
[05:59] Reimi
    No way!
[05:59] Akira
    B-B-But how, exactly?!
[06:01] Reimi
    I'll join you!
[06:02] Akira
    What?
[06:02] Nadeshiko
    Me too, then.
[06:03] Akira
    What?!
[06:05] Kuroki
    Um...
[06:10] Pontaro
    Damn it!
[06:11] Pontaro
    If by some chance it all goes back to normal,
    I'll be the one held accountable for 7G!
[06:15] Pontaro
    No way in hell I'm letting that happen!
[06:18] Pontaro
    Took you long enough!
[06:19] Chaos
    You destroyed my kingdom!
[06:21] Boss
    You'll pay the price!
[06:27] Nadeshiko
    Out of the way!
[06:30] Boss
    I'll turn you into skeletons!
[06:33] Reimi
    Get lost!
[06:37] Pontaro
    Absolutely useless!
[07:02] Reimi
    Watch it!
[07:03] Reimi
    You could kill someone with that!
[07:04] Pontaro
    You moron!
[07:05] Pontaro
    I want all of you dead!
[07:06] Reimi
    What?
[07:07] Reimi
    You're going to kill us?
[07:08] Pontaro
    That's right.
[07:09] Pontaro
    You're nothing but bad news for the princess.
    Ikebukuro and the princess need each other!
[07:13] Pontaro
    There's no Ikebukuro without the princess!
    And there's no princess without Ikebukuro!
[07:17] Pontaro
    Damn you!
[07:26] Pontaro
    It's you...
[07:27] Pontaro
    Okay!
[07:28] Pontaro
    Beat the living daylights out of them!
[07:32] Pochi
    One question.
[07:34] Pochi
    What did you mean by
    "there's no princess without Ikebukuro"?
[07:38] Pochi
    Explain.
[07:39] Pontaro
    At the core of 7G energy is Ikebukuro,
[07:42] Pontaro
    with the princess as the core
    that generates it.
[07:45] Pontaro
    The two of them depend on each other.
[07:47] Pontaro
    The princess keeps Ikebukuro alive,
    and Ikebukuro keeps her alive.
[07:50] Akira
    What?
[07:50] Reimi
    Huh? What? Huh?
[07:51] Nadeshiko
    Shh!
[07:52] Pochi
    While eating away at Yoka-sama's life?
[07:54] Reimi
    Eating away?!
[07:55] Nadeshiko
    What do you mean?
[07:56] Pontaro
    Everyone dies eventually.
[07:57] Pontaro
    What's wrong with the noble task
    of preserving Ikebukuro?!
[08:01] Pochi
    And is that what Yoka-sama wants?
[08:03] Pontaro
    I think you've got the wrong idea.
[08:05] Pontaro
    You're nothing more than a bodyguard.
[08:07] Pochi
    The one I serve is Yoka-sama.
[08:10] Pochi
    I'm not your bodyguard.
[08:12] Pontaro
    What was that?!
[08:13] Pochi
    Is it not 7G that is the cause
    of Yoka-sama's suffering?
[08:16] Pontaro
    And what if it is?!
[08:17] Pochi
    If we stop 7G, will her suffering end?
[08:20] Akira
    I see now.
[08:21] Akira
    7G created Yoka-chan the Witch Queen,
[08:23] Akira
    and Yoka-chan created the world of 7G.
[08:26] Shizuru
    The button!
[08:26] Reimi
    I get it.
[08:27] Nadeshiko
    If she presses it...
[08:34] Pontaro
    You stupid crow!
[08:37] Shizuru
    Why are you...
[08:38] Pochi
    Yoka-sama is in your hands.
[08:42] Shizuru
    He's not our enemy?
[08:45] Shizuru
    When it comes to Yoka, you're on our side.
[08:47] Shizuru
    Is that right?
[08:49] Pochi
    Yeah.
[09:02] Pochi
    Yoka-sama.
[09:04] Yoka
    Pochi.
[09:04] Pochi
    Please have some tea.
[09:06] Yoka
    Thanks.
[09:19] Akira
    Will they be okay?
[09:21] Reimi
    I think so.
[09:22] Nadeshiko
    I'm sure Yoka-chan will understand.
[09:24] Reimi
    If she doesn't, I'm sure once 
    she sees this NeriAli book...
SIGN    Alice in Nerima Land
    Official Fanbook
[09:28] Akira
    Maybe if she reads a little ShibuTatsu...
[09:31] Akira
    Nadeko-chan, that's...
[09:33] Nadeshiko
    Oh, it's sweet myrtle.
[09:34] Reimi
    It's got nothing to do
    with Yoka-chan, right?
[09:36] Nadeshiko
    You're right.
[09:37] Nadeshiko
    Why'd I bring it?
[09:40] Nadeshiko
    Oh, yeah.
[09:41] Nadeshiko
    Yoka-chan said the flowers
    remind her of stars.
[09:44] Group
    What?
[09:45] Reimi
    When?
[09:46] Nadeshiko
    Ages ago, in the school garden.
[09:48] Akira
    Huh...
[09:49] Reimi
    Yoka-chan was already thinking
    about the stars back then?
[09:53] Shizuru
    Yoka, recognize me?
[09:55] Shizuru
    It's me, Shizuru.
[09:57] Yoka
    Shizuru...
[09:59] Shizuru
    Did you forget?
[10:00] Shizuru
    You don't remember me?
[10:02] Shizuru
    You know...
[10:03] Shizuru
    I'm not here to ask for your forgiveness.
[10:06] Shizuru
    At worst...
[10:07] Shizuru
    Maybe "at worst" isn't right.
[10:09] Shizuru
    But you don't have to forgive me.
[10:10] Shizuru
    I just wanted to apologize for hurting you!
[10:14] Shizuru
    Sorry!
[10:15] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan's never been good with words.
[10:18] Akira
    I feel embarrassed just listening!
[10:20] Shizuru
    That wasn't how I really felt!
[10:22] Shizuru
    Well, no, I did feel that way a little.
[10:24] Shizuru
    You know how stupid I am, right?
[10:26] Shizuru
    So it felt like you were
    so much better than me.
[10:29] Shizuru
    And the better you were,
    the more worthless I felt.
[10:33] Shizuru
    That's why I was so nasty to you.
[10:35] Shizuru
    But by doing that...
[10:37] Shizuru
    I was only lowering myself more.
[10:40] Shizuru
    I get that now!
[10:54] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan!
[10:55] Shizuru
    It's totally fine.
[10:56] Shizuru
    Yoka's right to be mad at me.
[10:58] Nadeshiko
    Yoka-chan!
[11:04] Nadeshiko
    Stop it, Yoka-chan!
[11:05] Akira
    Hey, why would you hit Shizuru-chan?
[11:08] Reimi
    I don't get it, Yoka-chan!
[11:14] Yoka
    No... What's going on?
[11:16] Shizuru
    Yoka?
[11:17] Shizuru
    Do... Do you remember now?
[11:22] Yoka
    "Like, you gotta know
    you've got no chance, right?"
[11:25] Yoka
    "You're just embarrassing yourself
    with such high hopes."
[11:28] Yoka
    "I don't care about you anymore, Yoka!"
[11:32] Reimi
    Hey, stop that, Yoka-chan!
[11:34] Akira
    That's scary!
[11:35] Yoka
    Why?
[11:37] Yoka
    You said it.
[11:38] Shizuru
    I did.
[11:40] Shizuru
    I said that because I didn't
    want you to go away!
[11:45] Shizuru
    Now... Now I get it!
[11:47] Shizuru
    I know! I really do!
[11:48] Shizuru
    It was awful to put you down
    and say you couldn't do it!
[11:51] Shizuru
    But back then, I didn't want you to leave,
[11:53] Shizuru
    even if it meant hurting or mocking you!
[11:56] Yoka
    Is that why you came here
    to drag me back to Agano?
[12:00] Shizuru
    No!
[12:01] Shizuru
    I wanted to say sorry for what I said.
[12:03] Shizuru
    Also, I wanted to tell you
    that I believe in your dreams.
[12:06] Shizuru
    That I support you and
    I'll be cheering you on!
[12:09] Yoka
    How vain, making it all about yourself.
[12:12] Reimi
    Hey!
[12:13] Akira
    Yoka-chan!
[12:13] Nadeshiko
    That's uncalled-for!
[12:14] Nadeshiko
    Yoka-chan, you're wrong about that.
[12:16] Nadeshiko
    I agree Shizuru-chan said some mean things.
[12:19] Nadeshiko
    But she wouldn't have spent two years
    looking for you every day out of vanity!
[12:23] Reimi
    Or come out to Ikebukuro!
[12:24] Akira
    Yeah, it wasn't easy getting here!
[12:26] Yoka
    I never asked, and I'm not responsible.
[12:28] Nadeshiko
    That's right, you didn't ask us to!
[12:30] Nadeshiko
    But if you continue to cut us off,
    nothing will change!
[12:33] Yoka
    Nothing will change...
[12:34] Shizuru
    I used to think it'd be fine
    if nothing ever changed.
[12:38] Shizuru
    If I could stay in Agano forever,
    with you and the others.
[12:42] Shizuru
    That's why, at first,
    I just wanted to have you come back.
[12:45] Shizuru
    But now I know that wouldn't be any fun.
[12:48] Shizuru
    It's boring when you know the future
    and what it holds.
[12:51] Shizuru
    The more mysteries and uncertainty,
    the more fun it is!
[12:54] Shizuru
    You see, we ran into a lot of
    trouble from Agano to Ikebukuro!
[12:59] Shizuru
    But it was so much fun!
[13:01] Shizuru
    I never would've realized
    if I'd stayed in Agano.
[13:03] Reimi
    But, well, now the world
    has stopped changing.
[13:06] Nadeshiko
    It's all come to a standstill.
[13:08] Akira
    It's worse than that!
[13:09] Akira
    They say it's going to shrink.
[13:10] Shizuru
    I want to change and bring about change!
[13:13] Shizuru
    Deep down, don't you want—
[13:16] Nadeshiko
    Yoka-chan!
[13:16] Reimi
    Stop it!
[13:18] Yoka
    Don't decide for me how I feel!
[13:27] Reimi
    Shizuru-chan!
[13:31] Nadeshiko
    Yoka-chan.
[13:33] Nadeshiko
    Is your life fun now?
[13:41] Yoka
    No, it's not...
[13:49] Yoka
    It's not fun.
SIGN    Nakatomi Yoka
[14:17] Shizuru
    A lot happened back in Agano.
[14:20] Shizuru
    Including sad things, painful things,
    and awful things.
[14:23] Shizuru
    But it was those ups and
    downs that made it fun.
[14:27] Nadeshiko
    Yoka-chan, you have a dream, don't you?
[14:29] Nadeshiko
    As things stand, nothing will change,
[14:31] Nadeshiko
    but if the world goes back to normal,
    your dream might come true.
[14:34] Nadeshiko
    You can work to make it come true.
[14:36] Nadeshiko
    The possibility is there.
[14:38] Yoka
    The possibility...
[14:39] Shizuru
    Yoka.
[14:40] Shizuru
    Let's set the world in motion again.
[14:45] Yoka
    But...
[14:47] Yoka
    It'll be rough if I don't make it.
[14:51] Shizuru
    It'll hurt if you fail.
[14:53] Shizuru
    But I'll be cheering you on, Yoka!
[14:56] Shizuru
    Yeah.
[14:57] Shizuru
    I'll cheer as hard as I can!
    I'll tell you to do your best!
[15:00] Shizuru
    It's way better to try and have regrets
    than not do anything at all.
[15:04] Shizuru
    So I'll cheer you on!
[15:11] Shizuru
    That's Sirius!
[15:12] Reimi
    Sirius?
[15:13] Yoka
    The promise star...
[15:19] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Let's promise on that big,
    twinkling promise star.
[15:23] (Flashback) Yoka
    Promise star?
[15:24] (Flashback) Shizuru
    I just made up that name.
[15:26] (Flashback) Yoka
    I think its name is Sirius.
[15:29] (Flashback) Shizuru
    Let's make that our name, then.
[15:31] (Flashback) Yoka
    Okay.
[15:40] Yoka
    I don't deserve to be cheered on.
[15:43] Shizuru
    Why not?
[15:44] Yoka
    I made fun of you.
[15:46] Yoka
    For talking big but never
    amounting to anything.
[15:50] Yoka
    And you never would.
[15:51] Yoka
    You could wither away
    and rot for all I cared.
[15:56] Yoka
    I laughed at you.
[15:57] Yoka
    Cursed you out.
[15:59] Shizuru
    That's no curse.
[16:03] Shizuru
    It's what I want.
[16:04] Yoka
    What?
[16:05] Shizuru
    I mean, whether I stay in Agano forever or end up leaving for somewhere else,
[16:09] Shizuru
    I'm happy you were thinking
    about me regardless.
[16:13] Yoka
    Shizuru-chan, you really are so stupid...
[16:18] Reimi
    Hey, Yoka-chan.
[16:20] Reimi
    Wouldn't you rather be with the rest of us
    instead of being all alone here?
[16:23] Akira
    That's right.
[16:24] Akira
    It'd definitely be more fun that way!
[16:25] Nadeshiko
    You can think about the future
    when the time comes.
[16:31] Shizuru
    Yoka.
[16:51] Yoka
    I...
[16:53] Shizuru
    It'll be fine.
[17:02] Pontaro
    Oh, no, you don't!
[17:07] Nadeshiko
    Yoka-chan!
[17:08] Shizuru
    Yoka!
[17:14] Shizuru
    I've got you!
[17:17] Swan Hermit
    That scared me!
[17:20] Swan Hermit
    My word!
[17:21] Swan Hermit
    Now, that's a surprise!
[17:22] Swan Hermit
    If it isn't the Witch Queen!
[17:23] Shizuru
    Her name's Yoka. Nakatomi Yoka.
[17:28] Swan Hermit
    I see now!
[17:32] Yoka
    If the world goes back to normal...
[17:34] Shizuru
    Even if it doesn't...
[17:36] Reimi
    We'll think about it then!
[17:37] Akira
    Optimism!
[17:39] Nadeshiko
    Isn't that enough?
[17:59] Pochi
    Yoka-sama...
[18:22] Kuroki
    You guys...
[18:26] Shizuru
    This is, um...
[18:28] Akira
    Hey!
[18:29] Reimi
    Was Ikebukuro like this before?
[18:30] Akira
    Yeah, that!
[18:30] Nadeshiko
    I feel like it was, but also not really...
[18:33] Shizuru
    It's the old Yoka, at least.
[18:34] Yoka
    What?
[18:35] Reimi
    Yeah, yeah.
[18:36] Yoka
    Really?
[18:37] Akira
    Yeah, you're 100% back to the Yoka we know.
[18:40] Nadeshiko
    Yep.
[18:41] Yoka
    It feels a little different from before.
[18:44] Swan Hermit
    That's correct.
[18:46] Swan Hermit
    Even if a river appears
    to flow in the same way,
[18:48] Swan Hermit
    the water itself is different.
[18:50] Swan Hermit
    The same goes for towns,
    people, and the world.
[18:52] Swan Hermit
    They appear the same, but they're not.
[18:54] Swan Hermit
    They change over time.
[18:55] Reimi
    Thanks for the tidy summary.
[18:59] Swan Hermit
    The world can't go back to the way it was.
[19:01] Swan Hermit
    It continues to change.
[19:02] Swan Hermit
    Now, then!
[19:05] Swan Hermit
    Time to see what the world has become!
[19:08] Swan Hermit
    Until we meet again!
[19:16] Kuroki
    Huh? What?
[19:18] Reimi
    Gratitude or admiration...
[19:20] Reimi
    It's one or the other. Or both.
[19:22] Kuroki
    But they've all gone back to being human...
[19:24] Nadeshiko
    Don't think of it as going back.
[19:25] Nadeshiko
    The ex-human zombies
    turned into brand-new humans!
[19:29] Akira
    Makes sense.
[19:30] Kuroki
    Am I still your queen?
[19:35] Shizuru
    Yeah, that's where you belong.
[19:37] Kuroki
    Kurokin!
[19:38] Kuroki
    What about you girls?
[19:43] Group
    Agano!
[19:49] Reimi
    Our destination's set!
[19:51] Reimi
    All aboard the Apogee!
[20:00] Yoka
    The Apogee?
[20:02] Akira
    Shizuru-chan named it.
[20:04] Yoka
    Why...
[20:07] Akira
    I wonder how Agano's doing.
[20:09] Reimi
    More like, what's it like now?
[20:18] Akira
    Huh, what?
[20:19] Akira
    What's that sound?
[20:20] Reimi
    What was it again?
[20:21] Nadeshiko
    Oh, I know!
SIGN    Incoming Call
[20:23] Makoto
    It worked!
[20:25] Makoto
    It must be since you stopped 7G.
[20:27] Makoto
    Over here?
[20:28] Makoto
    Yeah.
[20:29] Makoto
    It's a mix of good things,
    not-so-good things,
[20:31] Makoto
    and things where it's hard to say
    either way, all at once.
[20:34] Makoto
    I can't say that it's all disappeared.
[20:36] Makoto
    There are still a few... or rather,
    a lot of residual effects.
[20:39] Makoto
    Zenjiro.
[20:40] Makoto
    Document everyone's changes.
[20:41] Zenjiro
    Goodness me.
[20:42] Zenjiro
    The great Makoto-sensei sure is demanding—
[20:47] Makoto
    Hmm.
[20:48] Makoto
    Today's anti-choo-choo mode lasted
    39 seconds longer than yesterday.
[20:52] Makoto
    Well, that's how it is here.
[20:53] Makoto
    Be careful on your way back.
[20:55] Makoto
    You might just have a harder time
    on the return trip.
[21:02] Akira
    Look!
[21:03] Akira
    What's that?
[21:03] Akira
    I see something!
[21:04] Nadeshiko
    Another train line?
[21:06] Reimi
    Huh?
[21:07] Reimi
    Could it be the Seibu Shinjuku line?
[21:08] Akira
    So it came back?
[21:10] Shizuru
    We came back, too.
[21:12] Shizuru
    Is "came back" really the right phrase?
[21:15] Shizuru
    What if it's a brand-new Shinjuku line
    we don't know about?
[21:17] Akira
    We might have jumped to
    an alternate reality, too.
[21:21] Reimi
    Can we really make it back to Agano?
[21:23] Nadeshiko
    Right?
[21:23] Yoka
    Hey, Shizuru-chan.
[21:25] Yoka
    Why did you name it the Apogee?
[21:28] Shizuru
    Huh?
[21:30] Shizuru
    Ah!
[21:31] Nadeshiko
    Good question.
[21:32] Nadeshiko
    I wouldn't have expected it
    out of Shizuru-chan.
[21:35] Nadeshiko
    It's a technical term, too.
[21:36] Akira
    Yeah, why?
[21:37] Reimi
    Why, why?
[21:44] Shizuru
    The moon is farthest away
    from Earth at its apogee.
[21:48] Shizuru
    So it can only get closer from there.
