    Welcome to the 7G Network Launch Ceremony!
[00:44] Pontaro
    You're none other than the
    77,777th person here!
SIGN    Congrats on Being 77,777th
[00:48] Pontaro
    Tell us your name!
[00:49] Yoka
    Huh?
[00:49] Yoka
    A-Ah...
[00:52] Yoka
    Nakatomi Yoka.
[00:54] Pontaro
    Welcome, Yoka-san!
[00:56] Pontaro
    I'm the head of the Spread 7G Worldwide
    Committee, Poison Pontaro!
[01:01] Pontaro
    Yoka-san, what do you expect from 7G,
    which will connect the world at record speed?
[01:08] Yoka
    What do I expect?
[01:09] Pontaro
    Yes!
[01:10] Pontaro
    Instant communication and contact
    with anyone, anywhere!
[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
    All the world's leading technologies,
    crammed, stuffed, and hammered into 7G!
[01:33] Pontaro
    Tap directly into the thoughts in your brain
    for an omni-device approach!
[01:37] Pontaro
    Thoughts, instantly broadcast!
    Visions, instantly made real!
[01:39] Pontaro
    Harness the very power of God, only with...
[01:42] Pontaro
    7G!
[01:43] Yoka
    Um, can I leave—
[01:46] Pontaro
    Without further ado...
[01:47] Pontaro
    Let us all be witnesses!

[04:31] Nadeshiko
    This is an Agano Station District broadcast.
[04:35] Nadeshiko
    The Black Leopard caravan will be
    arriving soon at Agano-juku-mae.
[04:40] Nadeshiko
    Please gather if you have packages to send
    or receive or wish to make any purchases.
[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?
[08:18] Kazuyo
    I'll say. We've been waiting all this time.

[08:20] Nadeshiko
    I received a message on my PHS,
[08:22] Nadeshiko
    which should mean they're pretty close.
[08:24] Akira
    What if everyone from Black
    Leopard got wiped out?
[08:27] Reimi
    That'd be bad!
[08:28] Reimi
    My mook is supposed to arrive today.
[08:30] Nadeshiko
    Shizuru-chan's not here, either.
[08:32] Reimi
    You're right. That's new.
[08:34] Akira
    Doesn't she have her career consultation
    with Iguchi-sensei today?
[08:37] Reimi
    Oh, career stuff, huh?
[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!
[10:50] Masaharu
    Taka-san, you're hogging all of it?!
[10:52] Taka
    First come, first served!
[10:54] Oito
    Nothing but meat on the brain. How childish.
[10:56] Neko
    Looks like another bumper harvest for Agano.
[10:58] Neko
    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.
[11:23] Shizuru
    I'm out patrolling every day, too.
[11:25] Neko
    I see...
[11:26] Neko
    You three.
[11:27] Neko
    I finally found the things you asked for.
[11:29] Reimi
    Yes!

[11:31] Akira
    You know that's a secondhand copy?
[11:33] Reimi
    I'll take what I can get.
[11:34] Reimi
    It's not like they put out

    Hey, listen, Neko-san.
[11:58] Shizuru
    Please let me work with you!
[12:00] Neko
    Huh? Not a chance.
[12:02] Neko
    Nothing's going to change my mind.
[12:03] Neko
    It's too dangerous.
[12:04] Shizuru
    I'm a 2-dan in Agano jiu-jitsu, you know.
[12:09] Neko
    After the 7G incident,
    Bear was the first one to fall.
[12:13] Neko
    Pelican, Kangaroo, and Hikyaku
    followed, one after another.
[12:17] Neko
    We keep going because we're

    but that could change at any time.
[12:23] Neko
    I'll make sure to tell you

[12:26] Neko
    So just be patient.

    "Maybe"?

    What is it?

    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...
[13:13] Reimi
    So what'd you buy, Akira?
[13:14] Akira
    The Book of Black Magic by Tatsuhiko.
[13:17] Reimi
    Tatsuhiko?
[13:18] Akira
    The only Tatsuhiko it could be
    is Shibusawa Tatsuhiko!

    The distance between train stations,
    and between towns,

    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.

[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
    Kuga Reimi.
[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!
[21:00] Group
    What?!
[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
    Really? Hey! No way!
