    Stay away! Stay away!
[00:18] ---
    No!
[00:24] ---
    Stop! Stop!
[00:38] ---
    I can't take this anymore!
[00:42] ---
    This is a living hell!
[00:52] ---
    Someone!
[00:53] ---
    Someone!
[00:57] ---
    Anyone!
[00:58] ---
    Anyone... Save me... from this hell!
[01:02] ---
    Well...
[01:04] ---
    Compared to the office,
    that would be heaven, huh?
[01:12] ---
    Oh no...
[01:15] ---
    I need to sleep, since tomorrow's...
[01:21] ---
    Oh...
[01:25] ---
    Tomorrow...
[01:28] ---
    I got work again...
[01:30] ---
    ...tomorrow, huh?
[01:36] ---
    Work...
[01:41] ---
    I don't wanna go...
[01:46] ---
    It happened three years ago...
[01:48] ---
    Here.
[01:49] ---
    Starting today, you're assigned
    to the Production Department, uh...
[01:54] ---
    Oh, all right.
[01:57] ---
    My name is Akira Tendo.
    Nice to meet you all!
[02:02] ---
    -Nice to meet you!
    -Welcome aboard.
[02:04] ---
    On my first day, I got the impression
[02:06] ---
    that it was a lively company
    with great atmosphere.
[02:09] ---
    Yes! I'm happy to be here!
[02:12] ---
    I landed a job in a production company
    and industry I'd dreamed about.
[02:16] ---
    I was full of hopes,
    dreams and ambition.
[02:20] ---
    I'm gonna pump out commercials
    for all the big players!
[02:24] ---
    Which means
    maybe I'll even meet some stars!
[02:27] ---
    Wow... I'm gonna do my best.
[02:29] ---
    All right...
[02:30] ---
    You'll be sitting here.
[02:32] ---
    Yes, sir!
[02:33] ---
    If there's anything you don't understand,
    ask Kosugi, the Department Chief.
[02:36] ---
    Nice to meet you!
[02:38] ---
    Yes! I look forward to working with you!
[02:39] ---
    Thank you for your hard work, sir.
[02:43] ---
    Oh, I'm sorry!
[02:45] ---
    It's all right.
[02:47] ---
    I wasn't looking where I was going...
[02:49] ---
    Oh no! It's my...
[03:04] ---
    Oh, excuse me!
[03:05] ---
    Here!
[03:06] ---
    Thank you.
[03:07] ---
    Sure...
[03:08] ---
    Nice to meet you.
    I'm Saori Ohtori from accounting.
[03:10] ---
    SAORI OHTORI
    ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT
[03:12] ---
    Looking forward
    to working with you, Tendo.
[03:16] ---
    S-Same... here.
[03:19] ---
    For invoices or if you have any questions,
    come ask me anytime.
[03:24] ---
    I sit right through there and to the left.
[03:27] ---
    Got it.
[03:28] ---
    Well, good luck on your first day!
[03:36] ---
    She's so cute...
[03:40] ---
    Cheers!
[03:42] ---
    -Thanks for all your hard work!
    -Yeah!
[03:43] ---
    Bottoms up!
[03:44] ---
    Tendo, where did you go to school?
[03:46] ---
    K University!
[03:47] ---
    Wow, that's a good school!
[03:49] ---
    Oh, it's not really...
[03:50] ---
    Gotta girlfriend?
[03:51] ---
    No, I haven't had any luck...
[03:53] ---
    Huh?
[03:55] ---
    What? A stud like you? What a shame!
[03:57] ---
    Oh no... I'm not...
[03:59] ---
    You can ditch the tie,
    we're not that kind of office.
[04:02] ---
    Thank you.
[04:03] ---
    But this gets me pumped up.
[04:06] ---
    You look athletic, did you play anything?
[04:09] ---
    Yes! I played rugby
    all throughout college.
[04:12] ---
    Wow!
[04:13] ---
    Rugby, huh?
[04:15] ---
    -That's great!
    -Yeah!
[04:16] ---
    Looks like we got a dependable
    and valuable asset on our team!
[04:18] ---
    I'll say!
[04:34] ---
    Wow. Miss Ohtori's cute, for sure!
[04:38] ---
    She's totally my type!
[04:43] ---
    All right!
[04:44] ---
    I'll work hard and show results
    and make a good impression on her!
[04:50] ---
    About time we get going, huh?
[04:52] ---
    Yeah.
[04:53] ---
    Umm... Thank you very much for today.
[04:55] ---
    I'm looking forward to tomorr—
[04:57] ---
    All right.
[04:58] ---
    Let's get back to the office.
[05:04] ---
    Huh?
[05:06] ---
    KOSUGI
    TAKAHASHI
[05:13] ---
    What's going on?
[05:15] ---
    What is this?
[05:16] ---
    Huh?
[05:17] ---
    This can't be normal, right?
[05:19] ---
    How much longer 'til you finish?
[05:20] ---
    -Huh?! Uh, about...
    -Ten minutes, okay?
[05:23] ---
    An all-nighter my first day...
[05:26] ---
    The next morning...
[05:27] ---
    Still in the office.
[05:29] ---
    Good morning!
[05:30] ---
    Morning.
[05:32] ---
    And that evening...
[05:34] ---
    SOLD OUT
[05:36] ---
    I mean, seriously...
[05:38] ---
    When can I go home?
[05:41] ---
    I'm going out to buy dinner...
[05:43] ---
    It doesn't look like
    I'll be going home tonight, after all!
[05:48] ---
    Ultimately, I wasn't able to leave the office
    and go home until two days later.
[06:07] ---
    AKIRA TENDO
    PRODUCTION DEPARTMENT
[06:07] ---
    Oh... this must be...
[06:11] ---
    ...one of those
    exploitative corporations.
[06:24] ---
    I'm still sleep-deprived.
[06:28] ---
    How long will I be away
    from home this time?
[06:37] ---
    All of a sudden,
    I don't want to go to work.
[06:48] ---
    Why am I whining?
[06:50] ---
    This is nothing! Get used to it!
[06:53] ---
    I chose this career!
[06:55] ---
    I worked hard to get it!
[06:57] ---
    Suck it up! Show some backbone!
[06:57] ---
    AKIRA TENDO
    PRODUCTION DEPARTMENT
[07:00] ---
    Don't underestimate us jocks!
[07:03] ---
    Good morning!
[07:05] ---
    Our company
    has many employee-friendly policies.
[07:08] ---
    TENDO
[07:08] ---
    Yes, well...
[07:10] ---
    Annual paid vacations, naturally.
[07:12] ---
    But you also get your anniversary day off,
    and mental health days.
[07:15] ---
    Never seen anyone use them, though.
[07:18] ---
    We encourage each other
    with good-natured competition.
[07:23] ---
    How much unpaid overtime
    did you log last month?
[07:25] ---
    150 hours.
[07:27] ---
    Talk to me once you pass 200.
[07:30] ---
    I'm blessed with kind co-workers.
[07:32] ---
    I'll cover dinner.
[07:35] ---
    I might not look it,
    but it's my fifth year.
[07:37] ---
    I make more than you!
[07:39] ---
    He treated me, but Mr.Takahashi's
    take home pay is 210,000 yen.
[07:39] ---
    Thank you...
[07:43] ---
    Mr. Kosugi, our department chief...
[07:46] ---
    Don’t come crying to me for everything!
[07:48] ---
    Can't you figure it out on your own?!
[07:51] ---
    What?! You made a decision without me?!
[07:54] ---
    Don't go off on your own!
[07:56] ---
    - Get out! Get out! Get out of here!
    - He can be moody.
[07:59] ---
    But he's so passionate about mentoring
    that some employees are moved to tears.
[08:04] ---
    Where do you think you're going, damn it?!
[08:08] ---
    Everyone at the office
    is very health conscious.
[08:11] ---
    Talk to me when you start pissing blood.
[08:14] ---
    Another day, another ulcer.
[08:17] ---
    And then, in my second year...
[08:30] ---
    When was the last time I took a bath?
[08:33] ---
    No matter what, I'll get the last train tonight.
[08:36] ---
    Tendo!
[08:37] ---
    Yes?
[08:38] ---
    Takahashi's out. So you take over.
[08:41] ---
    Huh?
[08:42] ---
    It's due by the end of the week.
[08:46] ---
    Yes, sir.
[08:47] ---
    YAMAKAWA, TAKAHASHI,
    SAKAI
[08:47] ---
    Another all-nighter confirmed.
[08:49] ---
    Damn it, useless crap, honestly...
[08:55] ---
    Maybe a missile
    will come falling down on me...
[08:59] ---
    Here, Tendo!
[09:02] ---
    You worked through lunch again,
    didn't you?
[09:05] ---
    You have to eat.
[09:07] ---
    Miss Ohtori!
[09:09] ---
    Thank you very much!
[09:11] ---
    The one person keeping me sane
    at this company...
[09:17] ---
    Miss Ohtori,
    the one I'd secretly had a crush on...
[09:19] ---
    -Thank you—
    -Ohtori, got a minute?
[09:22] ---
    Oh, yes!
[09:24] ---
    See you, Tendo!
[09:26] ---
    Hang in there!
[09:28] ---
    Miss Ohtori was also...
[09:34] ---
    Oh...
[09:35] ---
    Sir, not here...
[09:37] ---
    -It's okay! The walls are thick.
    -Sir!
[09:41] ---
    ...the CEO's mistress.
[09:44] ---
    TRASH
[09:44] ---
    Sir...
[09:47] ---
    No... Sir...
[09:52] ---
    Huh. Why am I still working there?
[09:59] ---
    Should I find another job?
[10:01] ---
    No... Impossible.
[10:03] ---
    Where would I find the time?
[10:07] ---
    If I leave, the team
    will have to pick up my slack.
[10:13] ---
    Besides, there are worse companies
    than mine in the industry...
[10:20] ---
    Oh well...
[10:22] ---
    Forget it...
[10:24] ---
    Oh...
[10:27] ---
    Excuse me...
[10:32] ---
    In my third year...
[10:34] ---
    Huh?
[10:35] ---
    Like I said...
[10:36] ---
    The managing director promised his
    grandkid a role in the online commercial.
[10:41] ---
    I'm sorry but can you rewrite
    the scenario and include the kid?
[10:44] ---
    But we've already been
    through five revisions...
[10:49] ---
    I see what you're saying!
[10:51] ---
    Fine, then!
[10:52] ---
    There are plenty
    of other companies that would...
[10:54] ---
    No, I'm sorry! I'll have it by today...
[10:56] ---
    -You'll do it?
    -Yes.
[10:58] ---
    -Of course you will.
    -Yes.
[10:59] ---
    Please do that...
[11:00] ---
    Yes...
[11:01] ---
    I already signed the cast and crew
    to work on a shoestring budget...
[11:06] ---
    How do I make it up to them?
[11:07] ---
    Why the hell are you slacking off?!
[11:10] ---
    Is this harassment?
    Is that what this is?!
[11:12] ---
    Are you harassing your superior?!
[11:14] ---
    Quit messing with me!
    You idiotic, piece of...
[11:24] ---
    Oh, this is blocking me.
[11:29] ---
    If this wasn't here...
[11:33] ---
    I wouldn't need
    to go back to work tomorrow...
[11:46] ---
    Running a thousand leagues!
[11:48] ---
    According to witness testimony...
[11:48] ---
    BREAKING: MULTIPLE BITE MARKS, MANY UNCONSCIOUS,
    IN CRITICAL CONDITION
[11:51] ---
    Long working hours
[11:51] ---
    MIND CONTROL?! THE EVILS OF
    EXPLOITATIVE CORPORATIONS!
[11:53] ---
    and bullying from their higher-ups
    robs employees of their will to quit,
[11:55] ---
    losing even the ability
    to make a simple decision....
[11:58] ---
    I see...
[12:00] ---
    They fall into depression, and in
    the worst-case, they are driven to suicide.
[12:05] ---
    Wow, exploitative companies seem like
    they're hard to work for...
[12:11] ---
    There's one thing that I think of
    before I fall asleep...
[12:16] ---
    Please let me sleep...
[12:18] ---
    ...and never wake up.
[12:21] ---
    I don't wanna go...
[12:23] ---
    I don't wanna go to work!
[12:27] ---
    I don't—!
[12:35] ---
    Oh...
[12:37] ---
    Quit asking me each and every time!
[12:39] ---
    Get out! Get out!
[12:40] ---
    Go die, you piece of trash!
[12:42] ---
    What?! You made a decision without me?!
[12:44] ---
    Don't go off on your own!
[12:53] ---
    Oh...
[12:57] ---
    Damn it.
    I forgot to pay for my bike space.
[13:03] ---
    I wonder if the building manager is up?
[13:11] ---
    Excuse me...
[13:15] ---
    Excuse me...
[13:21] ---
    Damn it, I'm gonna be late for work.
[13:28] ---
    Excuse me...
[13:29] ---
    It's about my parking fee.
[13:32] ---
    I'm sorry it's late...
[14:02] ---
    Huh?! H-Hey!
[14:05] ---
    H-H-Hey... Wait! Wait! Wait!
[14:18] ---
    What is this?
[14:20] ---
    What's going on?!
[14:27] ---
    Zombies...?
[14:29] ---
    Zombies?!
[14:30] ---
    I mean, those are zombies, right?
[14:34] ---
    What do I do?
[14:36] ---
    What do I do?!
[14:37] ---
    I mean, if this keeps up
[14:39] ---
    I'm gonna be late for work!
[14:54] ---
    Wait...
[14:57] ---
    So...
[15:00] ---
    Could this...
[15:04] ---
    Does this mean...
[15:07] ---
    Starting today...
[15:09] ---
    I don't have to go to work anymore?
[15:15] ---
    I'm...
[15:18] ---
    ...free!
[15:56] ---
    Until yesterday, I saw the world
    in monochrome, shrouded in a black cloud.
[16:03] ---
    Blue skies!
[16:04] ---
    Green trees!
[16:06] ---
    Bright red blood!
[16:08] ---
    It's been so long...
[16:11] ---
    I'd forgotten the world
    was so full of color!
[16:16] ---
    I'm just so happy...
[16:19] ---
    ...to have a day off from work!
[16:31] ---
    Now then, what to do today?
[16:36] ---
    I was gonna get my motorcycle license
    when I had some time off...
[16:41] ---
    I could go to Yakushima.
[16:43] ---
    Or go skydiving...
[16:45] ---
    Or I could start day drinking
    and binge movies all day!
[16:51] ---
    I've had a ton a things I've wanted to do!
[16:54] ---
    And now I can do them all, starting today!
[17:08] ---
    I wonder if Miss Ohtori's all right.
[17:17] ---
    Who cares if she's someone's side chick?
[17:20] ---
    I'd rather get eaten by zombies
    than regret holding in these feelings...
[17:27] ---
    ...I've had for the past three years!
[17:42] ---
    Miss Ohtori, wait for me!
[18:13] ---
    EMERGENCY CONTACT LIST
    SAORI OHTORI
[18:16] ---
    This is it!
[18:22] ---
    Damn it, I'm starting to get cold feet!
[18:25] ---
    Is it creepy if a coworker you've never
    hung out with suddenly shows up at your house?
[18:29] ---
    Yeah, it's definitely creepy.
[18:32] ---
    No! This is just a safety check
    during an emergency!
[18:50] ---
    It's open...?!
[18:53] ---
    M-Miss Ohtori?
[18:56] ---
    I-I came to check if you're...
[19:06] ---
    Boss...
[19:12] ---
    Sir!
[19:13] ---
    I have something important to tell you.
[19:15] ---
    Do you have a minute?
[19:20] ---
    The long, hard hours at work
    have been overwhelming,
[19:22] ---
    and it's made me forget
    what living like a human is.
[19:24] ---
    I don't even know why
    I'm working anymore.
[19:29] ---
    Anyway, it pains me to say this...
[19:33] ---
    ...but it's time I regain control
    over my life.
[19:36] ---
    So, I've made up my mind
    to resign as of today!
[19:40] ---
    I know I was inexperienced in many ways,
    but you mentored me until today...
[19:43] ---
    For that, I'm very grateful.
[19:47] ---
    I know this is selfish of me...
[19:50] ---
    But please, accept my resignation!
[19:54] ---
    Thank you very much!
[19:58] ---
    -A comeback try!
    -Go! Go! Akira!
[20:01] ---
    Yay!
[20:17] ---
    Miss Ohtori!
[20:58] ---
    From the moment...
[21:00] ---
    I saw you on my first day at work...
[21:04] ---
    I've always...
[21:06] ---
    always, always...
[21:13] ---
    Been completely in love with you!
[21:30] ---
    Goodbye...
[21:32] ---
    my first love.
[21:48] ---
    Ah, that hits the spot.
[21:56] ---
    Tomorrow, the day after, next week...
[21:59] ---
    I don't have to go to work
    ever again. It's like a dream.
[22:10] ---
    We could die today...
[22:13] ---
    Or we could die 60 years from now...
[22:18] ---
    Either way, there's never enough time
    to do all the things we want.
[22:24] ---
    In that case, I'm...
[22:27] ---
    I'm gonna...!
