00:01.800 --> 00:08.850
<i>The Nokker revealed itself in front 
of Fushi, and he challenged it to battle.</i>

00:11.370 --> 00:12.810
Bring it.

00:12.810 --> 00:13.940
I'll play with you.

00:18.080 --> 00:19.200
I have to get back.

00:19.200 --> 00:20.550
Yay! I'm free!

00:22.410 --> 00:24.320
Hey, can I come back?

00:24.320 --> 00:25.650
I love having fun!

00:25.650 --> 00:27.830
That person will appreciate it, too!

00:27.830 --> 00:29.000
"That person"?

02:00.030 --> 02:04.030
Trouble

02:04.530 --> 02:10.170
<i>I thought I might bump into 
Fushi if just I wandered around.</i>

02:10.730 --> 02:12.320
<i>What to do...</i>

02:12.320 --> 02:15.010
<i>Maybe I'll drop by Yuki-kun's place.</i>

02:15.770 --> 02:19.890
<i>I can't think of an excuse, though.</i>

02:21.020 --> 02:23.770
Fushi, I'm here to help with your homework.

02:23.980 --> 02:25.680
<i>Would I be imposing?</i>

02:25.680 --> 02:28.380
<i>That Tonari girl might get pissed at me.</i>

02:28.820 --> 02:31.800
You broke your promise to meet 
up after school every day!

02:31.800 --> 02:32.850
You suck!

02:32.850 --> 02:33.920
<i>No way.</i>

02:33.920 --> 02:36.180
<i>No one likes a hysterical woman.</i>

02:36.820 --> 02:39.650
Yuki-kun, I found a shiny rock.

02:39.650 --> 02:41.010
Is it a power stone?!

02:41.010 --> 02:42.370
Nice, Senpai!

02:42.370 --> 02:43.780
<i>That's it!</i>

02:46.960 --> 02:50.250
<i>He might not be at home, though.</i>

02:50.690 --> 02:52.580
<i>Should I go take a peek?</i>

02:52.580 --> 02:54.310
<i>That'd make me a stalker!</i>

02:55.330 --> 03:00.300
<i>Also, isn't he worried about me? 
He just left me hanging.</i>

03:01.040 --> 03:03.270
<i>Maybe he doesn't care anymore.</i>

03:04.170 --> 03:07.420
<i>What should I tell him when I see him?</i>

03:10.940 --> 03:13.810
<i>I can't stop thinking about Fushi.</i>

03:13.810 --> 03:15.390
<i>I feel so stupid.</i>

03:15.950 --> 03:17.980
<i>It's like I'm lovesick.</i>

03:18.800 --> 03:22.800
<i>I have a kind mom and a good friend.</i>

03:22.800 --> 03:25.680
<i>I'm happy, and yet...</i>

03:27.470 --> 03:32.780
<i>Things would be even more perfect 
if Fushi said he loved me.</i>

03:34.580 --> 03:35.920
A sea turtle...

03:37.280 --> 03:38.250
Fushi?!

03:38.590 --> 03:41.590
I want you to teach me about love.

03:43.340 --> 03:45.540
<i>I can't believe I actually bumped into him.</i>

03:47.800 --> 03:49.120
<i>Is it fate?</i>

03:49.120 --> 03:51.790
<i>It has to be, right?</i>

03:53.020 --> 03:54.310
<i>Fushi?!</i>

03:54.310 --> 03:56.390
What's wrong?! Please be okay!

03:57.460 --> 03:58.840
You came back to life!

04:01.430 --> 04:03.620
You scared me.

04:03.900 --> 04:05.790
Are you okay, Fushi?

04:05.790 --> 04:07.100
You're all better now?

04:07.100 --> 04:09.610
Yeah, sorry for scaring you.

04:09.610 --> 04:11.560
That's a relief.

04:11.560 --> 04:16.670
So anyway, um... wanna take 
me somewhere this Sunday?

04:16.670 --> 04:18.200
Like where?

04:18.200 --> 04:19.470
Anywhere.

04:20.710 --> 04:24.220
You haven't been keeping up with your 
promise to meet up after school lately.

04:24.550 --> 04:27.420
I'll forgive you if you go on a date with me.

04:27.420 --> 04:29.160
A d-d-date?!

04:29.160 --> 04:31.810
What's this, er... "date"?

04:30.520 --> 04:32.670
Come, Fushi, Fushi...

04:32.670 --> 04:34.720
Don't forget your date with me!

04:34.720 --> 04:37.490
Our plan to defeat the 
Nokkers and save the planet!

04:37.490 --> 04:38.750
Of course.

04:38.750 --> 04:40.640
I was about to do that.

04:41.060 --> 04:42.560
Okay, Mizuha.

04:42.560 --> 04:44.360
Let's do that "date" thing.

04:44.730 --> 04:48.520
You'll let me be by myself after that, right?

04:49.460 --> 04:51.690
I don't like the way you said that.

04:52.530 --> 04:54.720
Okay, then, 10 AM on Sunday.

04:54.720 --> 04:56.210
Meet me at the station.

04:58.560 --> 05:00.160
She's really living it up.

05:00.410 --> 05:03.120
Do you think those two 
are going to go steady?

05:03.730 --> 05:05.640
You lied to me!

05:05.960 --> 05:07.370
"Peaceful," my ass!

05:07.370 --> 05:09.340
The Nokker took my body!

05:09.340 --> 05:12.240
She was going crazy with the grass cutter!

05:12.240 --> 05:13.800
Is there a problem with that?

05:13.800 --> 05:16.100
Aren't you worried about me at all?

05:16.100 --> 05:17.690
I'd be dead if it got my head!

05:17.690 --> 05:18.930
Exactly!

05:19.160 --> 05:21.170
Wait, Fushi, you can die?

05:21.170 --> 05:25.090
No, to be precise, I'd lose my ability 
to transform into this body.

05:25.090 --> 05:27.200
We <i>have</i> to exterminate the Nokkers!

05:27.880 --> 05:29.400
We have to do it!

05:29.850 --> 05:34.420
If you feel threatened by that girl, 
you'll need to deal with her yourself.

05:34.420 --> 05:36.870
There's nothing I can do for you.

05:37.170 --> 05:39.240
No, there is.

05:39.240 --> 05:41.230
First off, retract your lie.

05:41.230 --> 05:43.120
The lie that it's peaceful now.

05:43.120 --> 05:44.530
And cooperate with me.

05:44.530 --> 05:47.100
You have more abilities to 
detect the Nokkers, don't you?

05:47.600 --> 05:50.400
Not much of my ability remains.

05:50.400 --> 05:53.140
Until now, I could make the 
surface part of my body

05:53.140 --> 05:55.550
to find the foreign contaminants 
that are the Nokkers.

05:55.550 --> 05:57.080
Not anymore.

05:57.080 --> 06:00.160
Not since I gave you my ability to reconnect.

06:00.820 --> 06:06.360
All I can do is involve myself with the 
humans nearby to sense when things are off.

06:06.700 --> 06:09.280
So that's how you found Mimori-chan.

06:09.280 --> 06:11.330
That ability will slowly wither, as well.

06:11.780 --> 06:14.130
And I am not lying when I say that

06:14.130 --> 06:17.790
the current state of the world 
is already the best it can be.

06:17.790 --> 06:21.490
So then what was the 
point of Fushi's fight today?

06:21.490 --> 06:22.530
Satoru!

06:22.880 --> 06:25.090
A-A-Are those your friends?!

06:25.090 --> 06:25.590
Yeah.

06:27.630 --> 06:29.980
Where did you meet them?

06:29.980 --> 06:30.890
The park.

06:31.580 --> 06:34.560
I'm Sumika. I live at this institution.

06:34.560 --> 06:36.060
I'm everyone's big sister.

06:36.060 --> 06:38.080
And I'm this kid's guardian.

06:38.080 --> 06:41.100
By the way, I'm the strongest person here.

06:41.100 --> 06:43.570
I made a guy cry at school one time.

06:43.570 --> 06:44.530
Nice to meet you.

06:44.530 --> 06:45.890
Nice to meet you!

06:45.890 --> 06:47.130
I'm Yuki.

06:47.130 --> 06:50.010
I like power spots and 
out-of-place artifacts.

06:49.330 --> 06:51.250
Oh, there you are.

06:51.250 --> 06:53.370
Come, Fushi. Let's go talk outside.

06:53.370 --> 06:54.590
Oh, hello.

06:54.590 --> 06:55.520
Who's he?

06:55.520 --> 06:56.650
An acquaintance.

06:56.930 --> 06:58.480
You're going with them?

06:58.480 --> 06:59.540
You're sure?

06:59.540 --> 07:01.010
Don't worry about me.

07:01.580 --> 07:04.300
Man, what a shock.

07:04.300 --> 07:07.760
To think you were attacked 
by Fake Mimori at school...

07:07.970 --> 07:12.770
Anyway, Mimori-kun had a request for us.

07:12.770 --> 07:15.850
She doesn't want us to 
fight the Nokker anymore.

07:15.850 --> 07:18.100
But why? What's the reason?

07:18.100 --> 07:20.310
She never told me.

07:20.310 --> 07:23.020
She's fine with her body 
having been taken over?

07:23.980 --> 07:25.980
That's what she said.

07:26.860 --> 07:28.440
What do I do now?

07:28.440 --> 07:30.220
Do I just lie down and take it?

07:30.220 --> 07:32.780
She said she'd be coming back.

07:34.420 --> 07:38.040
And she said "that person" would be happy.

07:38.040 --> 07:39.710
"That person"?

07:39.710 --> 07:41.430
Who does she mean?

07:41.430 --> 07:43.530
Do you know, Boy Black?

07:45.520 --> 07:47.360
He's focused.

07:47.360 --> 07:50.890
Oh, hey, why don't we have Nixon 
and Fen follow Fake Mimori?

07:50.890 --> 07:52.880
We might figure out who "that person" is.

07:52.880 --> 07:54.970
What? You would have us go?

07:54.970 --> 07:56.590
That's a great idea.

07:56.590 --> 07:57.810
Let's do it.

07:57.810 --> 07:58.800
Hold it.

07:59.410 --> 08:02.650
The Nokker living inside Mimori is combative.

08:02.650 --> 08:06.140
It won't hesitate to fight 
you wherever it finds you.

08:06.140 --> 08:09.190
We ought to take out the weak ones 
first and learn their weaknesses.

08:09.190 --> 08:10.370
But...

08:10.370 --> 08:10.970
Bon?

08:10.970 --> 08:14.280
That child can tell when a Nokker 
is in his vicinity, can't he?

08:14.280 --> 08:16.140
That's one idea.

08:16.140 --> 08:20.080
But Fake Mimori will attack, 
no matter what we do.

08:20.080 --> 08:21.880
Is Izumi-san saying something?

08:21.880 --> 08:24.470
Fushi, I want you to prepare for ambushes

08:24.470 --> 08:29.450
as you search for Nokker-infested humans 
with Boy Black while we look for Mimori.

08:29.740 --> 08:31.220
And if we find her?

08:31.220 --> 08:32.630
Do we defeat her?

08:32.630 --> 08:33.790
She was immortal.

08:34.100 --> 08:36.410
If we separate her body 
from her consciousness,

08:36.410 --> 08:38.270
the Nokker might have nowhere to go.

08:39.070 --> 08:40.400
The brain stem.

08:40.400 --> 08:41.580
Aim here.

08:41.580 --> 08:42.760
Make it die instantly.

08:43.030 --> 08:46.640
Izumi-san says you can kill 
it if you aim for the head.

08:46.640 --> 08:48.510
Stab it, cut it...

08:48.510 --> 08:50.320
Whatever works.

08:51.200 --> 08:52.020
Fushi?

08:53.090 --> 08:54.010
Yeah.

08:54.010 --> 08:55.170
I can do it.

08:55.170 --> 08:56.200
I can kill it.

08:56.200 --> 08:57.600
What's the matter?

08:57.600 --> 09:00.200
You've been killing them all this time.

09:00.520 --> 09:03.370
That one has pain.

09:04.090 --> 09:06.170
It wasn't like that before.

09:06.170 --> 09:08.210
I definitely felt it.

09:08.210 --> 09:11.080
The same kind of pain that we feel.

09:11.080 --> 09:14.080
Pain from a blade is definitely repulsive.

09:14.080 --> 09:16.730
Why not try explosives or poison?

09:16.730 --> 09:19.720
I'm sure it's horrible, 
but it's only for a moment, Fushi.

09:19.720 --> 09:21.390
The pain you feel won't last long.

09:21.710 --> 09:23.120
No...

09:23.120 --> 09:25.210
Yeah. You're right.

09:25.750 --> 09:27.230
It won't be a problem.

09:27.670 --> 09:31.320
Sorry, but I'm going to give 
my own life priority.

09:31.320 --> 09:34.360
Don't expect me to be able to help you.

09:34.650 --> 09:36.440
I'm sick of this!

09:36.440 --> 09:38.140
I don't know what's happened to you,

09:38.140 --> 09:40.690
but as far as I'm concerned, 
this is all your doing!

09:41.270 --> 09:42.440
Fushi!

09:42.440 --> 09:44.160
Stop it! Calm down!

09:45.160 --> 09:45.990
Are you all right?

09:47.160 --> 09:48.990
Apologize, Fushi.

09:51.620 --> 09:53.110
Tut, tut.

09:53.110 --> 09:53.870
I'm leaving.

09:53.870 --> 09:55.050
I'll walk you.

09:55.050 --> 09:55.530
No.

09:55.530 --> 09:56.890
Don't be like that.

09:56.890 --> 09:58.370
Wanna hold hands?

09:58.850 --> 10:01.960
Oh, he forgot his math worksheet.

10:03.120 --> 10:04.620
He made mistakes.

10:04.620 --> 10:06.500
He seemed so smart.

10:06.500 --> 10:07.910
That's odd.

10:07.910 --> 10:10.770
The Black One's good at counting.

10:10.770 --> 10:12.160
Is he?

10:12.160 --> 10:15.220
I guess with a new vessel, 
his mind changes, too.

10:15.220 --> 10:17.110
That's what he said before.

10:17.490 --> 10:20.850
Basically, now that he's young, 
his brain's smaller, too.

10:20.850 --> 10:21.900
Ah.

10:21.900 --> 10:25.240
That might mean the Nokkers will take on

10:25.240 --> 10:28.110
gentler personalities in 
their new bodies, too, right?

10:28.520 --> 10:30.590
That would be great.

10:30.590 --> 10:34.450
Come on, you pig, squeal!

10:34.860 --> 10:37.440
I know you've been poking around.

10:37.440 --> 10:42.220
Try to tell anyone about what you saw, 
and I'll make you suffer even more.

10:42.880 --> 10:43.520
Respond!

10:43.520 --> 10:44.190
Y-Yes, ma'am!

10:44.190 --> 10:45.080
You know what I want to hear!

10:45.080 --> 10:46.210
Oink, oink, oink!

10:52.400 --> 10:54.300
Sorry, Fushi!

10:54.960 --> 10:56.790
I overslept!

10:58.210 --> 10:59.420
I kept you waiting, didn't I?

10:59.420 --> 11:01.920
Sorry! And on our first date, too...

11:02.830 --> 11:04.710
Well, let's go.

11:04.710 --> 11:05.880
Where should we go?

11:05.880 --> 11:07.440
Let's see...

11:07.680 --> 11:09.110
Is he cosplaying?

11:09.110 --> 11:10.450
He looks so weird.

11:11.140 --> 11:13.820
I kinda want to check out some clothes.

11:16.320 --> 11:18.820
You haven't been at school lately.

11:18.820 --> 11:20.710
You can't tell me nothing's wrong.

11:20.710 --> 11:24.170
Tonari-san told me you haven't 
been coming home lately, either.

11:26.190 --> 11:29.310
I just didn't want people to see 
me when I'm not doing so great.

11:29.870 --> 11:32.440
<i>Ever since the day I was 
attacked by the Mimori Nokker,</i>

11:32.440 --> 11:35.360
<i>I've been sleeping outside in 
preparation for the next attack.</i>

11:36.110 --> 11:37.230
<i>And yet...</i>

11:37.230 --> 11:42.400
<i>the real Mimori says I don't need to fight, 
and the Black One isn't cooperating.</i>

11:42.730 --> 11:44.140
<i>What the hell?!</i>

11:45.010 --> 11:48.760
<i>We're obviously better 
off without the Nokkers.</i>

11:50.700 --> 11:52.780
So something <i>did</i> happen.

11:53.170 --> 11:55.010
You should tell me.

11:55.010 --> 11:56.450
Oh, er, well...

11:56.450 --> 11:58.010
Did you find some clothes you like?

11:58.010 --> 12:00.370
Wear these, Fushi.

12:01.250 --> 12:03.550
You were looking for clothes for me, huh?

12:03.550 --> 12:06.000
You really don't mind buying these for me?

12:06.000 --> 12:07.380
It's fine.

12:07.380 --> 12:09.930
Mom gave me a raise on my allowance.

12:10.350 --> 12:13.160
How is your mom? Still the same?

12:13.160 --> 12:16.140
Yeah. She's super nice.

12:16.140 --> 12:17.860
It's so peaceful, I can hardly believe it.

12:18.670 --> 12:19.850
Yeah?

12:20.330 --> 12:21.520
That's good to hear.

12:24.040 --> 12:25.170
<i>Damn it...</i>

12:25.710 --> 12:28.220
<i>I have to make sure I don't forget.</i>

12:28.680 --> 12:31.620
<i>That this isn't peace.</i>

12:32.040 --> 12:37.040
<i>There has to be a reason the Nokkers 
are still controlling people's bodies.</i>

12:39.340 --> 12:40.870
Notice, Fushi?

12:40.870 --> 12:42.330
Notice what?

12:43.130 --> 12:45.340
All the girls are looking at you.

12:45.800 --> 12:47.790
They think you're attractive.

12:48.230 --> 12:49.480
Attractive?

12:49.480 --> 12:51.470
You fit in well in town.

12:51.470 --> 12:53.770
You should always dress like that.

12:55.180 --> 12:57.430
So <i>there</i> you are!

12:57.940 --> 13:00.200
Can we help you, miss?

13:00.200 --> 13:03.000
Look at you, out on a date 
like everything's fine.

13:03.000 --> 13:05.390
Don't think you can escape 
what we talked about before!

13:05.690 --> 13:06.700
Before?

13:06.700 --> 13:07.860
Do you know her?

13:07.860 --> 13:10.200
You got Satoru hurt!

13:10.540 --> 13:12.650
Don't act like you don't remember!

13:12.940 --> 13:14.440
Satoru?

13:14.440 --> 13:15.320
Oh.

13:15.610 --> 13:18.910
Um... Sumika-san, was it?

13:19.310 --> 13:21.300
That wasn't on purpose.

13:21.300 --> 13:24.000
Wait, he got hurt? Really?

13:24.000 --> 13:26.200
Don't play dumb with me, asshole!

13:26.200 --> 13:28.380
He has a scrape and a bump!

13:28.750 --> 13:30.430
Satoru's so quiet.

13:30.430 --> 13:32.970
I was so happy. I thought 
he'd finally made friends.

13:33.330 --> 13:36.190
Turns out his "friend" was a piece of shit!

13:37.940 --> 13:42.480
There's no way that gloomy 
kid's gonna make friends.

13:44.450 --> 13:47.600
I'll give you a taste of what you did to him!

13:47.600 --> 13:48.390
Ow!

13:49.290 --> 13:50.970
No violence! You're awful!

13:50.320 --> 13:53.250
You don't know what he's been through.

13:54.530 --> 13:58.870
He was all on his own in the 
rain when he was taken in.

13:59.350 --> 14:01.590
He couldn't even say his own name.

14:02.470 --> 14:07.720
I warmed up his cold body, 
and he said, with a shocked face...

14:08.090 --> 14:09.810
It's warm.

14:09.810 --> 14:12.430
As if it was his first time taking a bath.

14:13.460 --> 14:18.350
So I cooked for him, and he said, 
with a surprised face again...

14:18.780 --> 14:20.480
I've never eaten before.

14:21.350 --> 14:26.400
He couldn't seem to answer what he was 
doing until now or who his parents were.

14:26.400 --> 14:29.610
That's what happens when a child doesn't 
have anyone to love them anymore.

14:29.610 --> 14:34.440
That's why I gave him the name Satoru, 
so he could start a new life.

14:34.750 --> 14:37.410
And I wanted to fill his life with love.

14:38.420 --> 14:43.320
Sorry, but he isn't the kind 
of person you think he is.

14:43.320 --> 14:44.680
You're wasting your time on him.

14:45.710 --> 14:49.700
Sounds like you <i>really</i> want 
me to teach you a lesson.

14:49.700 --> 14:50.680
Hey!

14:50.680 --> 14:52.130
I won't allow it.

14:52.500 --> 14:56.480
Karate, judo, aikido... 
I've done it all. I'll take you on!

14:58.030 --> 15:00.260
You think you can beat me, huh?

15:00.750 --> 15:03.030
A puny thing like you?

15:05.290 --> 15:06.690
Hold it!

15:06.690 --> 15:08.820
I'm gonna make you apologize!

15:10.510 --> 15:11.850
This way!

15:12.150 --> 15:14.220
Fushi, transform!

15:14.220 --> 15:15.790
To anything! Whatever!

15:17.820 --> 15:20.650
Huh? Where'd he go?

15:20.650 --> 15:22.750
He ran off on his own.

15:23.720 --> 15:26.580
Really? You'd better not be hiding him.

15:26.580 --> 15:28.520
You don't see him anywhere, do you?

15:28.520 --> 15:29.290
Right?

15:29.290 --> 15:30.340
Right.

15:30.690 --> 15:31.760
Bastard!

15:31.760 --> 15:34.120
Get back here!

15:32.230 --> 15:35.370
<i>He really is letting that girl protect him.</i>

15:35.370 --> 15:38.930
<i>He's completely become human.</i>

15:39.240 --> 15:40.950
I did it.

15:40.950 --> 15:42.500
I protected Fushi.

15:43.550 --> 15:47.930
I don't know what happened, 
but you shouldn't make girls angry.

15:48.250 --> 15:50.510
You don't know how much 
of a pain it can be later.

15:50.510 --> 15:52.080
Uh-huh.

15:52.080 --> 15:53.320
Hello.

15:53.320 --> 15:57.620
We're from the Minamoto Elementary 
School photography club.

15:57.860 --> 16:01.640
Would you be open to 
modeling for a few photos?

16:01.640 --> 16:02.910
Modeling?

16:08.340 --> 16:10.250
Thank you!

16:10.540 --> 16:12.780
You can have that one.

16:12.780 --> 16:15.410
Let me know if you're ever 
using those photos somewhere.

16:15.410 --> 16:16.420
Okay.

16:16.700 --> 16:19.330
What's up, Fushi? You look happy.

16:19.330 --> 16:20.930
Do you like having your picture taken?

16:20.930 --> 16:24.130
I was remembering 
the owner of this body.

16:25.300 --> 16:27.230
Her name was Mia.

16:27.230 --> 16:29.280
She'd dreamed of being an art model.

16:29.280 --> 16:31.510
She passed away before it could come true.

16:32.220 --> 16:37.190
It's a photo, but you kind 
of granted her wish, huh?

16:37.190 --> 16:38.690
That's what I was just thinking.

16:39.030 --> 16:41.980
Oh, yeah! Oopa and Uroy, too.

16:41.980 --> 16:44.420
What? There are more?

16:44.420 --> 16:47.580
Sure, I'll help out.

16:50.950 --> 16:54.910
Uroy's dream was to keep a lot of animals.

16:55.690 --> 16:58.390
All these animals I've never seen before!

16:58.390 --> 17:01.450
He's gonna love it!

17:03.060 --> 17:03.980
Look.

17:04.310 --> 17:06.180
That's the Oniguma constellation.

17:06.180 --> 17:09.400
Oopa was interested in the sun.

17:09.870 --> 17:13.860
She'd be blown away if she found out that 
there are stars that are farther away

17:13.860 --> 17:15.570
and bigger than the sun.

17:17.030 --> 17:19.610
Sorry it's so late.

17:19.960 --> 17:22.610
Thanks for hanging out with me today.

17:22.610 --> 17:25.140
I'm so happy I met you, Fushi.

17:25.140 --> 17:28.170
To think I used to want to die...

17:31.790 --> 17:32.920
Later, Fushi.

17:33.250 --> 17:35.510
You should come to school once in a while.

17:35.510 --> 17:36.310
Okay.

17:41.140 --> 17:43.950
<i>The Oniguma constellation, huh?</i>

17:43.950 --> 17:45.990
<i>I should tell March.</i>

17:46.940 --> 17:49.490
<i>I can't go home yet, though.</i>

17:49.490 --> 17:51.700
<i>Not until I deal with the Mimori Nokker.</i>

17:52.100 --> 17:53.270
Fushi!

17:53.270 --> 17:55.390
There you are!

17:55.390 --> 17:56.440
Tonari.

17:56.740 --> 17:59.600
You've been gone for so long. 
Everyone's worried.

17:59.600 --> 18:02.380
What are you doing in Oopa's form, anyway?

18:02.380 --> 18:03.910
I was watching the stars.

18:04.370 --> 18:05.790
The Oniguma.

18:06.560 --> 18:07.790
Which one?

18:08.090 --> 18:09.120
Um...

18:09.120 --> 18:12.270
That reddish one and the one next to it.

18:11.580 --> 18:13.140
I don't see it.

18:13.140 --> 18:15.530
I think it was that blue one.

18:15.530 --> 18:17.610
This scent takes me back.

18:17.610 --> 18:20.330
A mix of dirt and perfume.

18:20.880 --> 18:23.880
If only Oopa were actually here...

18:24.640 --> 18:26.700
<i>I wanted to look at the stars with her.</i>

18:26.700 --> 18:28.680
I can't get used to having only one eye.

18:33.840 --> 18:35.640
Fushi!

18:36.490 --> 18:38.910
Goodnight, Fushi!

18:38.910 --> 18:40.770
Yup, night.

18:40.770 --> 18:43.770
Oh, of course! You were with Mizuha today.

18:43.770 --> 18:45.330
Yeah. On a date.

18:46.370 --> 18:48.280
In Oopa's form?

18:48.280 --> 18:49.350
Yeah!

18:49.350 --> 18:52.180
She took me to this place 
called a planetarium.

18:52.180 --> 18:54.000
We saw all kinds of stars.

18:54.000 --> 18:56.450
Remember how Oopa used to 
be interested in the sun?

18:56.450 --> 18:57.760
I wanted her to see it.

18:58.060 --> 18:59.620
And the zoo.

18:59.620 --> 19:02.770
I let Uroy see it with his own eyes.

19:02.770 --> 19:06.440
Oh, and I let Mia be a model.

19:06.440 --> 19:09.100
See? She looks awesome in this photo, right?

19:08.150 --> 19:09.100
Stop it!

19:09.950 --> 19:11.940
Oh, there you are.

19:11.940 --> 19:14.400
Fushi! Tonari talked to you, right?

19:14.400 --> 19:16.170
Let's head home.

19:17.550 --> 19:19.680
Haven't you heard?

19:19.680 --> 19:22.110
Bon wants to talk to you.

19:22.110 --> 19:26.340
She took Ligard to find you 
since you've been missing.

19:27.690 --> 19:29.480
Is something wrong?

19:29.950 --> 19:34.450
She used my friends for romantic pursuits.

19:34.680 --> 19:35.550
Huh?

19:35.550 --> 19:37.250
What do you mean?

19:37.250 --> 19:38.960
Mizuha's just being kind.

19:38.960 --> 19:39.880
I don't want to hear it!

19:39.880 --> 19:40.920
H-Hey...

19:40.920 --> 19:42.340
Listen...

19:42.340 --> 19:45.220
It isn't you or this Mizuha girl.

19:45.220 --> 19:51.260
I love Oopa and Uroy and Mia 
more than anyone else does!

19:51.750 --> 19:53.460
I adore them!

19:54.110 --> 19:57.240
They died being taken over by the Nokkers.

19:57.670 --> 20:01.170
That was the end of their lives, 
and there was nothing we could do.

20:02.270 --> 20:07.220
If you think you're living out their lives...

20:07.730 --> 20:11.000
Don't defile my friends 
with your dirty thoughts!

20:11.310 --> 20:12.160
Tonari!

20:13.190 --> 20:14.690
Tonari-san?!

20:17.820 --> 20:20.300
Fushi, I'm just guessing, but...

20:20.700 --> 20:23.000
Was Tonari-san super angry?

20:23.000 --> 20:23.910
Did you fight?

20:24.940 --> 20:27.300
Hey, you good?

20:27.650 --> 20:29.860
We should head home.

20:29.860 --> 20:32.010
I'll help Tonari feel better.

20:32.010 --> 20:32.720
No!

20:32.720 --> 20:33.690
Stay away!

20:33.690 --> 20:35.090
Why not?

20:35.090 --> 20:37.290
Eko's making hot pot.

20:37.290 --> 20:39.400
What are you even doing these days, Fushi?

20:39.400 --> 20:41.060
You've been wandering around on your own.

20:41.060 --> 20:42.110
Are you hiding something?

20:42.110 --> 20:46.100
Gugu-niisan, you know how it is.

20:46.100 --> 20:46.990
What?

20:46.990 --> 20:48.830
It's a guy thing.

20:48.830 --> 20:51.640
He's just like the cat I used to own.

20:51.640 --> 20:54.610
He left home when he was in 
heat and never came back.

20:55.160 --> 20:57.920
You're saying he's in heat? Fushi is?

20:57.920 --> 20:59.360
Oh, right!

20:59.360 --> 21:02.170
He was hitting it off with that Mizuha girl.

21:02.170 --> 21:04.150
So now things've gotten messy with Tonari,

21:04.150 --> 21:06.540
and you don't feel comfortable at home.

21:05.780 --> 21:07.810
You deserter!

21:06.540 --> 21:08.630
I don't think Mizuha's right for you,

21:08.630 --> 21:10.590
but I got your back 
if she's the one you like.

21:10.590 --> 21:12.890
I'll talk to Tonari. You got this.

21:13.310 --> 21:16.220
I'll tell Bon-san to meet you at school.

21:16.980 --> 21:19.920
Well, sir brother, shall we get back?

21:21.930 --> 21:23.090
No thanks.

21:28.400 --> 21:30.740
<i>I let Tonari down.</i>

21:31.640 --> 21:35.490
<i>I couldn't help Oopa and the others that day.</i>

21:35.920 --> 21:40.700
<i>I used their bodies to try to 
work through my own hopelessness.</i>

21:41.940 --> 21:46.710
<i>It's not even as if Oopa or 
Uroy could see what I saw.</i>

21:47.920 --> 21:50.040
<i>Living is hard.</i>

21:54.020 --> 21:57.310
<i>I wonder if drinking away 
your sadness really works.</i>

22:00.990 --> 22:03.860
<i>I can drink when I'm in Booze Man's body.</i>

22:03.860 --> 22:05.320
<i>This is kinda nice.</i>

22:10.550 --> 22:11.860
Look...

22:11.860 --> 22:13.240
Look at this!

22:15.550 --> 22:17.380
Fushi! You all right?

22:17.380 --> 22:18.650
Who are you?!

22:18.650 --> 22:19.740
What have you done to Fushi?!

22:20.410 --> 22:21.760
I simply...

22:22.310 --> 22:24.260
want you to behold this!

22:24.940 --> 22:26.460
That happy trail!

22:26.460 --> 22:29.370
It shines like a black silk 
road over white sands!

22:29.370 --> 22:31.200
And the bonds that confine it...

22:31.200 --> 22:32.230
The karma of man!

22:32.230 --> 22:36.130
The antithesis to all those who defile life!

22:36.130 --> 22:38.120
Who are you?!

22:38.120 --> 22:40.070
Hirotoshi.

22:40.400 --> 22:42.770
Oh, he's the guy I called.

22:43.430 --> 22:46.690
He's been standing around 
the school gate lately.

22:46.690 --> 22:50.630
He said he was looking for Fushi, 
so we exchanged contacts.

22:50.630 --> 22:51.900
You pervert!

22:51.900 --> 22:53.110
What do you want from me?

22:53.890 --> 22:56.580
I want you to help my sister.

22:57.450 --> 22:59.030
Help her?

24:30.000 --> 24:55.030
Preview

24:32.450 --> 24:36.550
