Next problem. Kuze.
Oh. Um, right.
It's 6.6-pi.
It's, uh, 6.6.
Correct.
She's mumbling. We can't hear what she's saying.
Marina-chan didn't do anything to you today-pi.
Yeah.
Keep out
Maybe this is the first step toward you two making up-pi.
Takopi's Original Sin
Episode 2
Takopi's Salvation
It feels like forever since I went on a walk with anyone.
Is that so-pi?
I always used to go on walks with my dad way back when.
So you have a dad after all-pi?
Sure I do. But he left when I was little.
That's something humans do-pi?
Pi!
The stars were out like this the night he left, too.
So I wished upon them as hard as I could.
I asked them to stop my mom and dad from divorcing.
But my wish didn't come true.
That's when I knew there was no such thing as magic or gods.
This is the first time Shizuka-chan has opened up to me-pi.
It feels like we've become friends. What a happy feeling-pi.
Compared to the last time we saw the stars together, this feels a lot more—
Huh?
That was the sixth day after we first met.
Which is today.
And Shizuka-chan died the next day.
In other words, tomorrow.
Shizuka-chan came to the park with Chappy's collar in her hand.
Huh?
So why wasn't Chappy...
with her back then-pi?
Pi!
I can't believe you're out at this hour.
Being a whore must run in the family, huh?
U-Um...
Marina-chan?
Oh, look. It's the filthy dog.
Oh, Chappy!
I've always wondered something.
Should a parasitic slut like you have the right to own a dog?
Come here, Chappy.
Answer my question.
I ask you if a parasite that can't live on its own deserve to own a filthy dog.
M-Marina-chan... So she didn't become any nicer after all?
Hey, aren't you gonna answer me?
Oh, maybe you can't 'cause parasites can't talk?
I'm so scared, I can't move.
Chappy!
Don't!
Ow! Somebody, please help!
This dog... This ferocious dog!
It's attacking me!
Police! Animal control!
Get this dog away from me!
What's going on-pi?
Chappy?
Wait, Chappy.
Tears? Shizuka-chan is crying-pi.
That's not supposed to happen ever again-pi.
So I'll...
I'll fix it-pi!
Takopi?
Let's take a different route when we go walking-pi.
What are you talking about?
Did you find something down this path?
Nope-pi!
As long as we don't go near the park, we won't run into Marina-chan, so it should be fine.
Oh, there you are.
Pi?
This isn't going in a good direction-pi.
How about we go on a morning walk-pi?
We should take a walk tomorrow instead-pi.
Huh? This doesn't seem right-pi.
No matter where we go or when, Chappy always ends up...
Good. That worked great. All according to plan.
It was worth going to look for her.
Are you okay?
Oh.
It's because Marina-chan is looking for us-pi.
It attacked me out of the blue.
You're safe now.
Hmm? If that's the case, avoiding her won't be so easy-pi.
Still, why does she want to see them when she knows she'll get bitten-pi?
It must hurt-pi.
I know-pi. Let's ask Shizuka-chan since she's also a human-pi.
Maybe I'll find out something about Marina-chan.
Shizuka-chan.
I have something to ask you-pi.
Chappy...
Wait for me. Don't leave me.
Bye-bye.
At this rate, Shizuka-chan will...
Shizuka-chan!
I...
I promise I'll save you, no matter what.
So that you and Chappy can keep smiling and laughing together.
Even if I fail this time, I'll keep looking for a way-pi.
So you won't have to do something tragic.
So please... Please trust me!
Takopi?
I promise this time for sure...
I'll put the biggest smile on your face that you've ever had-pi!
Listen, Shizuka.
Chappy's gonna go live with your dad.
A dog that's bitten someone isn't allowed to stay in this city.
You'll get him back one day.
Come on.
It was a dog he just left behind in the first place.
Municipal Animal Shelter
Oh, and...
Marina-chan, was it? Seems her injury wasn't too bad.
Still, her dad says her mom's furious.
It's such a drag.
I'm gonna go apologize, just to save some face in front of him.
Spare me the extra trouble, will you?
Okay, I'm off to work.
Fix yourself dinner. I'll be home before morning.
By the way, Shizuka...
Why are you wearing a chameleon plant in your hair?
No matter how many times I try,
Chappy gets taken away-pi.
But I will never give up-pi.
Because Shizuka-chan is still alive.
So I'll do my best to get Chappy back from her papa's place-pi.
Shizuka-chan, don't worry.
I promise I'll bring Chappy back for you-pi.
So cheer up-pi.
Where's your papa's place-pi?
I'll go over there right now-pi.
Shizuka-chan, aren't you hungry-pi?
Here, your bread from today's school lunch-pi. Eat up-pi.
What'll put a smile on your face-pi?
I know-pi.
If she goes to school and sees her friends...
Wow, she actually came?
Did you hear? Marina-chan...
I did! She got hurt real bad.
She got her dog to bite her, right?
She's got some nerve coming to school.
Die!
Well, if it isn't the psycho who didn't stop her stupid dog from biting me.
Good morning.
You had the guts to come in, huh?
Pi.
That's it for today.
The next lesson is in another room, so don't be late.
My hand was bleeding so much.
That's awful.
You should sue her.
I might've caught rabies.
Pi!
Apologize.
Come on.
K-Kirarazaka-san.
We should get going since it's music next.
Ugh. Guess I should.
What do we need to take with us for music?
A recorder and...
K-Kuze-san, are you okay?
You should go see the nurse if you're not feeling too good.
If there's anything I can do, don't be shy about...
Wasn't it creepy how she didn't respond to anything we did to her?
So boring.
What should we do tomorrow?
Yeah.
Sorry, girls. Do you mind going home without me today?
Huh? Do you have to go somewhere?
Well, okay. See you tomorrow.
Shizuka-chan?
Shizuka-chan's been feeling down-pi.
Oh, could it be because...
Are you hungry-pi? You didn't eat your lunch today-pi.
Oh, it's the parasite.
M-Marina-chan!
We need to talk. Come with me.
Stop ignoring me, you piece of garbage.
Let's talk about your cute Chappy, Shizuka-chan.
Okay.
Shizuka-chan spoke-pi!
Let's go, then.
Now she can have a cheerful chat with Marina-chan.
No, not just that-pi.
This might be their chance-pi.
Maybe the two of them will finally make up.
In that case, I won't run away anymore-pi.
I'll face my fears...
...and help them become friends again-pi!
Wait up-pi!
Keep out
Pi!
Can't you come home earlier?
This again?
Mari-chan misses you, too!
I'm working my butt off here!
Mari-chan.
Mari-chan, you understand, don't you?
I don't care about anybody else.
You're always on my side, aren't you?
So about Ch-Chappy...
Your dog is dead. How's it feel?
He's not dead.
He's dead.
No, he's not.
Yes, he is.
He's dead. Gone for good.
He's with my dad.
He's gone. D-e-a-d.
He can come home anytime, see? I have his collar.
Animal control took it in after it bit a child's hand.
It's totally dead, you idiot!
You don't have a dad. You don't have a caring mom.
You don't have friends. Nobody cares about you.
That filthy mutt was all you had to lean on and now it's dead.
So...
Why don't you just die?
Scary-pi.
S-S-S-Scary-pi.
She's terrifying-pi.
You'll only cause problems by staying alive, you parasite.
I'm so scared, I can't even...
Pi!
How do you think you pay for your living expenses?
With money from my daddy's wallet.
The clothes you wear. The food you eat.
It's all paid for with money your mom sucks out of men!
Chappy...
With money my daddy works hard for!
Chappy.
If it weren't for you...
Daddy was supposed to buy Mommy another ring.
Not for some random hooker, but for my family.
Th-Th-Th-This isn't good-pi.
Shizuka-chan looks like she's in a lot of pain-pi.
I have to help her.
I know-pi.
I'll use the Happy Camera and have another try at the do-over—
Shut up!
If you went away, my mommy would go back to being her old self!
Chappy.
I'm fine as long as I have Chappy with me.
He's all I need.
I'm fine no matter what happens.
No matter how painful or terrible things get.
Shizuka-chan.
At this rate...
Nothing will have changed if I just stay hidden and watch-pi.
Shizuka-chan.
Shizuka-chan!
Give me back my daddy!
I need to muster up all my courage.
Shizuka-chan!
I'll save you this time-pi!
Huh?
Marina-chan stopped moving-pi.
Did it hurt too much-pi?
Marina-chan?
Something's not right-pi.
Pain's not a good thing.
Let's use the Happy Camera for a do-over, so we can talk it through.
Huh-pi?
Is she dead?
Shizuka-chan?
She's totally dead.
Right?
Dea... What?
It's my fault, right-pi? Why's Marina-chan so red? Dead?
Like with Shizuka-chan, we can use the Happy Camera.
What do I do? Did it break?
Takopi.
Takopi, you're amazing!
Huh?
Wow, wow, wow! Just wow!
You know I don't believe in magic,
but I always wanted Marina-chan gone!
I'd be fine at school then.
But I couldn't do anything by myself,
so I gave up on that dream.
But it just came true.
My wish has been granted.
This is amazing.
It's just like magic!
Y-You think so-pi?
I do.
Magic is real, so I bet that means Chappy's still alive, too.
I can see him again if I go to my dad's place.
Is this really...
Takopi.
Thank you, Takopi.
For killing her.
In your language, the act of taking another's life is called "killing."
Shizuka-chan is smiling.
Okay, let's go.
Sol Planet 3: Earth.
Day seven after landing from Planet Happy.
This is where my true story, where there are no more do-overs, begins-pi.
