00:29.154 --> 00:30.363
Are you curious?

00:32.032 --> 00:33.033
No way.

00:33.116 --> 00:35.076
It just gets on my nerves.

00:47.964 --> 00:49.174
Nice to meet you guys.

00:50.258 --> 00:51.342
We're TENBLANK.

00:54.554 --> 00:55.472
TENBLANK…

00:55.555 --> 00:56.973
On drums,

00:57.057 --> 00:58.558
Akane Saijo.

00:59.893 --> 01:01.144
On bass and vocals,

01:03.271 --> 01:04.439
Naoki Fujitani.

01:17.702 --> 01:21.122
<i>Lifeless words never reach anyone's heart</i>

01:21.206 --> 01:24.501
<i>I don't want to sing</i>
<i>Tainted by modern thought</i>

01:24.584 --> 01:27.796
<i>Money, glory, status, and fame</i>
<i>They never made much sense to me</i>

01:27.879 --> 01:31.925
<i>The answer I'm searching for</i>
<i>Isn't something so corrupt</i>

01:34.886 --> 01:37.972
<i>MATRIX, who am I?</i>
<i>I'll never be anyone</i>

01:38.056 --> 01:40.809
<i>I'm putting an end to my soliloquy</i>

01:40.892 --> 01:44.521
<i>I'm taking sense and senselessness</i>
<i>To another level</i>

01:44.604 --> 01:46.773
<i>My heart's beating out of my chest</i>

01:47.398 --> 01:50.777
<i>Life is smoldering, life is growing dull</i>

01:50.860 --> 01:53.947
<i>I pour the essence of my sobbing soul</i>

01:54.531 --> 02:00.078
<i>Into this endless stream of words</i>

02:00.662 --> 02:04.165
<i>Even in these tenuous times</i>

02:04.249 --> 02:07.669
<i>Where truth and lies are muddled</i>
<i>Everywhere you look</i>

02:07.752 --> 02:11.422
<i>You've gotta let your impulses burst free</i>

02:23.852 --> 02:26.896
I see. The drummer is the weak spot.

02:29.732 --> 02:31.693
This isn't gonna cut it.

03:16.738 --> 03:19.199
<i>Am I still dreaming?</i>

03:19.282 --> 03:22.410
<i>I'm sure I felt it</i>

03:22.493 --> 03:25.997
<i>Is there even any point…</i>

03:26.789 --> 03:28.750
She's not in her groove.

03:28.833 --> 03:31.044
<i>…in separating dreams from reality?</i>

03:31.127 --> 03:33.546
<i>In a distant melody</i>

03:33.630 --> 03:39.928
<i>Far beyond our comprehension…</i>

03:44.682 --> 03:45.850
Akane.

03:48.478 --> 03:51.147
Unleash yourself more. More!

03:51.731 --> 03:54.442
<i>…the raindrops celebrate this life</i>

03:54.525 --> 03:58.529
<i>No matter what else happens</i>

03:58.613 --> 04:01.157
<i>The moon will be found by the sun</i>

04:01.241 --> 04:04.869
<i>I could never bring myself to tell you</i>

04:04.953 --> 04:07.330
<i>It's the same for you and me</i>

04:07.413 --> 04:09.040
<i>The way you held your umbrella</i>

04:09.123 --> 04:09.958
Now she's got it.

04:10.041 --> 04:13.586
<i>Taught me everything about kindness</i>

04:13.670 --> 04:16.756
<i>I hung my head and cried</i>

04:16.839 --> 04:20.260
<i>Afraid you'd see through my imitation</i>

04:21.469 --> 04:25.682
<i>No matter how many times</i>
<i>We were broken apart</i>

04:25.765 --> 04:27.934
<i>A song was found in our love</i>

04:28.017 --> 04:31.938
<i>The magic that brings back to life</i>

04:32.021 --> 04:34.983
<i>The sad melody that lost its way</i>

04:38.528 --> 04:40.780
<i>The moon will be found by the sun</i>

04:40.863 --> 04:42.073
So damn boring.

04:42.156 --> 04:44.575
<i>I could never bring myself to tell you</i>

04:44.659 --> 04:47.245
<i>It's the same for you and me</i>

04:47.328 --> 04:49.998
<i>The way your shoulders shook</i>

04:50.081 --> 04:53.334
<i>Taught me everything about regret</i>

04:53.418 --> 04:56.629
<i>I lost sight of what was right</i>

04:56.713 --> 05:00.300
<i>And in a daze, pulled you close</i>

05:06.180 --> 05:07.557
Awesome!

05:09.767 --> 05:11.853
What do you think of Naoki Fujitani?

05:11.936 --> 05:13.855
Surprisingly good.

05:16.149 --> 05:18.943
Yeah, he's so brilliant.

05:25.199 --> 05:26.492
Are you gonna crush him?

05:27.327 --> 05:29.662
No, I'll let him spread his wings.

05:31.456 --> 05:32.290
For now.

05:37.378 --> 05:38.463
He'll come back.

05:41.090 --> 05:42.342
To me.

06:15.375 --> 06:16.834
Good morning.

06:22.465 --> 06:23.341
Whoa!

06:23.424 --> 06:25.385
Oh sorry, my bad. You okay?

06:25.468 --> 06:26.677
Yes, I'm fine.

06:26.761 --> 06:27.762
Oh, good.

06:30.139 --> 06:31.140
Kazushi!

06:32.558 --> 06:34.977
Everyday life with Sho Takaoka in it.

06:36.687 --> 06:39.065
I've got a bunch of stuff
I need to get used to soon.

06:42.860 --> 06:44.320
- Huh?
- Use it.

06:46.447 --> 06:47.448
Are you sure?

06:48.574 --> 06:50.243
You need one from now on, right?

06:53.704 --> 06:54.664
Thanks.

06:59.752 --> 07:02.004
I was a bit too harsh the other day.

07:02.755 --> 07:04.006
- What?
- Huh?

07:08.386 --> 07:11.013
Rotation, localization, lodestone…

07:11.097 --> 07:12.432
Lodestone!

07:12.515 --> 07:13.766
Step into three beats…

07:14.767 --> 07:15.893
now!

07:15.977 --> 07:17.270
This locks it in.

07:18.688 --> 07:20.565
Oh, but if that's the case…

07:21.566 --> 07:23.526
Did he mention working on a song?

07:23.609 --> 07:25.695
Beats me. Not that I recall.

07:26.988 --> 07:29.574
It's like Sensei has three sides.

07:30.074 --> 07:31.200
You might be right.

07:31.909 --> 07:34.871
He's got a music mask, a filming mask,

07:36.164 --> 07:37.206
and a human mask.

07:37.874 --> 07:39.041
Human mask?

07:47.383 --> 07:49.969
All right, so everyone…

07:51.053 --> 07:52.722
What's with the "everyone"?

07:52.805 --> 07:56.058
It took a while,
but the single release is officially set.

07:56.142 --> 07:57.393
Wow.

07:57.477 --> 08:00.563
This means no one can
complain about it now.

08:00.646 --> 08:03.649
In other words,
there's no turning back for us either.

08:03.733 --> 08:05.943
So let's do this, everyone.

08:08.070 --> 08:10.781
Which means the recording
is in three days.

08:11.407 --> 08:12.283
- What?
- What?

08:12.366 --> 08:14.577
Hey, wait. This is way too sudden.

08:14.660 --> 08:15.912
What about the actual song?

08:15.995 --> 08:18.581
I thought I'd arrange the song
we performed at the Yaon.

08:18.664 --> 08:20.917
Starting now? Will you make it in time?

08:21.000 --> 08:22.126
I'll do my best!

08:22.210 --> 08:24.712
Um, it might be fine for you,

08:24.795 --> 08:27.840
but Akane's got school too, you know.

08:27.924 --> 08:28.966
No, I'll be fine.

08:29.550 --> 08:33.346
Oh yeah, it's your first time
recording with Sensei.

08:33.429 --> 08:34.305
Huh?

08:42.104 --> 08:42.980
Sorry.

08:43.773 --> 08:45.441
School and all that.

08:46.776 --> 08:49.737
Your life might change because of this.

08:54.033 --> 08:56.202
- Oh my gosh!
- Let's listen to the next song too.

08:56.285 --> 08:58.329
Definitely. It's gonna be on repeat.

08:58.412 --> 09:01.541
Oh, it's Yukino Sakurai.

09:04.210 --> 09:05.670
She's got a great voice.

09:06.796 --> 09:09.298
Yes, and her songs are really good too.

09:10.007 --> 09:12.718
Wasn't the producer Ichidai Isagi?

09:16.430 --> 09:17.390
Sensei?

09:20.768 --> 09:22.728
You'll be up there like her in no time.

09:24.981 --> 09:25.940
Really?

09:37.785 --> 09:38.786
No.

09:45.710 --> 09:47.211
Hey, sorry.

09:47.795 --> 09:49.338
Something's off.

09:56.012 --> 09:57.263
<i>No, that's not it. Again.</i>

09:57.346 --> 09:58.472
<i>Time's up, Naoki.</i>

09:59.056 --> 10:00.641
<i>Ms. Saijo is at her limit too.</i>

10:07.690 --> 10:09.984
I'm fine. I can still play!

10:10.067 --> 10:12.695
Please tell me more.
What needs to be fixed, what's wrong.

10:12.778 --> 10:13.613
- I'll--
- Okay, then.

10:14.530 --> 10:16.365
Then bring me the Akane I know.

10:16.449 --> 10:17.283
Right here.

10:28.502 --> 10:29.378
Here.

10:30.588 --> 10:31.422
Huh?

10:32.131 --> 10:33.341
While I was at it.

10:34.675 --> 10:35.635
Thanks.

10:41.932 --> 10:45.603
What is the "me" that he's looking for?

10:48.564 --> 10:52.443
You don't have to take
what he says so seriously.

10:54.445 --> 10:59.617
His head is so full of his own music.
He's a terrible person otherwise.

11:01.577 --> 11:04.288
Kazushi, do you not like Sensei?

11:06.582 --> 11:07.958
It's not about liking him.

11:10.086 --> 11:11.003
He's my enemy.

11:12.004 --> 11:12.922
Enemy?

11:15.508 --> 11:17.968
I've always made music on my own.

11:18.636 --> 11:21.514
I compose using programmed tracks
and release them online.

11:23.182 --> 11:24.934
I enjoyed doing it.

11:26.310 --> 11:28.312
No unnecessary noise to worry about.

11:29.605 --> 11:31.524
So a band really isn't for me.

11:33.734 --> 11:35.736
But then, he invited me.

11:37.571 --> 11:42.868
That means Sensei
appreciated your sound, right?

11:44.245 --> 11:46.622
But that guy can do everything by himself.

11:48.457 --> 11:50.334
He plays not just bass, but guitar too.

11:51.752 --> 11:53.838
He might even be better than me
on keyboard.

11:56.590 --> 11:59.719
So I don't get why he'd even form a band.

12:01.971 --> 12:02.847
But

12:04.181 --> 12:06.308
somehow I wanted to beat him.

12:07.143 --> 12:09.478
I swore I'd beat him no matter what.

12:11.480 --> 12:12.690
That's why I'm here.

12:16.736 --> 12:17.695
So…

12:21.907 --> 12:24.034
why not take him down too, Akane?

12:27.496 --> 12:30.374
Are you trying to cheer me up?

12:31.292 --> 12:32.376
What?

12:33.210 --> 12:36.505
I mean, I was just saying
whatever I wanted about myself.

12:37.965 --> 12:40.509
Kazushi, you're really kind.

12:42.136 --> 12:47.391
Ugh, I really can't deal
with that dumb positivity of yours.

12:55.524 --> 12:57.443
At this rate, we won't make it.

12:57.526 --> 12:59.987
We need to go over the schedule again.

13:00.905 --> 13:02.948
There you are, TENBLANK.

13:03.741 --> 13:05.493
Yukino Sakurai.

13:05.576 --> 13:06.494
So it really is you.

13:07.328 --> 13:08.954
I saw you, TENBLANK.

13:20.841 --> 13:22.760
A talented and good-looking guy?

13:24.720 --> 13:26.472
It's so unfair. I love it.

13:30.142 --> 13:32.812
I took her along to your gig at the Yaon.

13:33.521 --> 13:36.899
A rare chance to witness history
in the making firsthand.

13:37.691 --> 13:41.862
TENBLANK is about to completely shake up
the rock scene from the ground up.

13:43.823 --> 13:45.616
It's been a while, Mr. Isagi.

13:47.785 --> 13:49.995
What was your name again?

13:51.413 --> 13:53.791
I'm Kai from BEAT Corporation.

13:53.874 --> 13:56.585
I'm in charge of the production
and management for TENBLANK.

13:56.669 --> 13:59.338
Just leave producing to him.

14:00.047 --> 14:01.715
He knows how to handle it on his own.

14:02.633 --> 14:03.509
Right?

14:04.218 --> 14:06.262
Are you also recording
at this studio today?

14:06.345 --> 14:07.471
Yeah.

14:07.972 --> 14:09.723
We're working on Yukino's album.

14:10.224 --> 14:13.394
But the title track isn't quite clicking.

14:14.812 --> 14:20.568
So we thought featuring Naoki Fujitani
from TENBLANK would be a great idea.

14:21.610 --> 14:23.737
I haven't heard anything about that.

14:23.821 --> 14:24.905
Yeah.

14:24.989 --> 14:26.907
That's because I haven't asked you yet.

14:28.993 --> 14:33.205
But I'm sure you'll accept the offer.

14:41.338 --> 14:45.467
I know Naoki Fujitani
like the back of my hand.

14:48.137 --> 14:50.973
Excuse me, but we're out of time.

14:53.976 --> 14:55.144
I'll be in touch again.

14:56.854 --> 14:57.730
See ya.

15:02.067 --> 15:05.112
You can't get involved with Isagi.
It'll happen again--

15:05.195 --> 15:06.071
Miyako.

15:10.409 --> 15:11.744
Thanks, as always.

15:13.162 --> 15:14.038
I'll be fine.

15:25.049 --> 15:26.550
- Do it again.
- Yes.

15:29.386 --> 15:30.679
That's not it.

15:35.392 --> 15:36.769
I don't want that sound.

15:37.645 --> 15:38.479
Okay.

15:38.562 --> 15:40.147
- Do it again.
- Yes.

15:45.319 --> 15:47.738
- Again from the fill four bars ago.
- Okay.

16:24.066 --> 16:25.192
Good morning.

16:25.818 --> 16:26.860
Oh, morning.

16:28.654 --> 16:29.697
You didn't go home?

16:29.780 --> 16:31.281
So you came, huh?

17:00.936 --> 17:01.770
Naoki!

17:19.663 --> 17:20.789
Huh?

17:20.873 --> 17:22.374
Did I wander off somewhere?

17:23.584 --> 17:25.878
At least you managed
to stop short of Mars.

17:25.961 --> 17:26.879
Sensei.

17:27.713 --> 17:29.798
Let's stop with this already.

17:29.882 --> 17:31.133
This isn't working.

17:34.094 --> 17:35.846
Even if we keep the song as it is,

17:35.929 --> 17:39.099
won't the sound naturally evolve
just by playing together?

17:39.850 --> 17:43.687
You're thrown off because you're trying to
redo something that was already complete.

17:43.771 --> 17:45.981
Why can't you understand
something so simple?

17:47.691 --> 17:48.817
I don't want to.

17:48.901 --> 17:50.652
What are you whining about?

17:51.695 --> 17:53.947
If you fall apart now,
it'll all be for nothing!

17:54.031 --> 17:56.158
But I don't want to sing it as it is!

18:02.081 --> 18:04.625
If I can't be satisfied with it myself,

18:05.626 --> 18:07.294
how could anyone else like it?

18:08.712 --> 18:11.799
This TENBLANK song of ours…

18:14.510 --> 18:16.011
Who's gonna love it?

18:22.059 --> 18:23.393
There's just one thing

18:24.895 --> 18:27.064
that I want you to understand, Sensei.

18:30.317 --> 18:34.822
The longer you delay the work,
the more the fallout lands on us.

18:37.157 --> 18:38.534
And yet…

18:40.828 --> 18:44.373
the two young ones are working hard
without a single complaint.

18:44.456 --> 18:46.041
They're even worried about you.

18:48.293 --> 18:53.006
All those sentiments aside,

18:53.090 --> 18:56.301
if you do truly believe
it's definitely worth doing,

18:58.554 --> 19:01.098
then see it through with pride.

19:03.308 --> 19:04.184
But…

19:07.479 --> 19:09.398
even if you kept the song as is…

19:11.483 --> 19:13.026
no one's gonna blame you.

19:20.742 --> 19:21.618
I…

19:24.121 --> 19:25.747
I want to sing it properly.

19:27.833 --> 19:29.334
I know I can make it.

19:31.461 --> 19:32.921
Please give me some time.

19:33.005 --> 19:33.964
I'm sorry.

19:58.488 --> 20:00.824
<i>I'm interested in your sound.</i>

20:07.581 --> 20:09.458
This song is nice, Ichidai.

20:10.042 --> 20:11.210
You think so?

20:11.293 --> 20:12.586
Naoki!

20:12.669 --> 20:13.670
Listen to me, Naoki!

20:16.048 --> 20:17.382
I said to wait!

20:19.051 --> 20:20.093
Sensei.

20:21.094 --> 20:22.179
Sensei!

20:27.226 --> 20:30.103
If you stay out here, you'll catch a cold.

20:33.357 --> 20:34.483
Yeah, you're right.

20:37.069 --> 20:39.529
Maybe it's because I met someone
I didn't want to.

20:41.531 --> 20:42.866
Do you mean Mr. Isagi?

20:45.911 --> 20:47.996
I'm the one who turned him into scum.

20:49.790 --> 20:50.916
Huh?

20:53.752 --> 20:54.711
I'm sorry.

20:56.171 --> 20:58.715
I haven't been considerate enough
to everyone, huh?

21:01.301 --> 21:02.177
I'm so sorry.

21:04.596 --> 21:07.516
Um, I mean, I'm totally fine.

21:08.141 --> 21:10.727
If anything, it's my fault
for being bad at drums.

21:14.398 --> 21:15.315
And besides,

21:17.150 --> 21:20.529
people struggling because of you…

21:20.612 --> 21:22.406
It's almost routine at this point.

21:22.489 --> 21:23.740
It's just the norm.

21:24.491 --> 21:25.450
But

21:25.951 --> 21:30.414
other people can't take on your struggles.

21:31.331 --> 21:33.083
No one else can take your place.

21:36.128 --> 21:37.045
Yeah.

21:50.017 --> 21:50.892
I…

21:52.728 --> 21:56.732
I've done a lot of terrible things
to others, and I'm aware of it.

21:58.066 --> 22:00.027
But if there's one thing I'm sure of,

22:00.902 --> 22:03.405
it's that despite all of that,
I'm still happy.

22:05.657 --> 22:08.744
There are, of course, people who become
unhappy because of me.

22:12.164 --> 22:13.707
Still, the music I create

22:14.750 --> 22:18.420
can make at least the same number
of people happy, if not more.

22:21.673 --> 22:23.050
So that makes it okay, right?

22:26.053 --> 22:27.304
And, of course, I…

22:29.264 --> 22:31.308
I'm going to make you happy too, Akane.

22:36.813 --> 22:38.690
I promise I'll make you happy.

22:50.410 --> 22:52.454
I heard Ichidai Isagi showed up.

22:52.954 --> 22:54.581
Oh, yes.

22:54.664 --> 22:57.793
It seems he was recording
at the same studio as us by chance.

22:57.876 --> 22:59.961
By chance, huh?

23:01.630 --> 23:04.174
I'd have preferred to keep him away.

23:05.759 --> 23:07.844
I saw another side of him again.

23:07.928 --> 23:08.804
Huh?

23:10.013 --> 23:10.972
Naoki.

23:12.808 --> 23:14.935
He may have many different sides,

23:15.435 --> 23:17.312
but there's just one of him at his core.

23:23.360 --> 23:25.737
You mean Sho Takaoka gave you a ride?

23:26.321 --> 23:27.155
Yes, he did.

23:27.239 --> 23:29.324
Why aren't you thrilled?

23:29.408 --> 23:31.993
Are you really the Akane Saijo I know?

23:40.293 --> 23:45.340
Even though Naoki said he was happy,
he looked lonely.

23:47.801 --> 23:49.594
He was pushing himself to the edge.

23:50.095 --> 23:54.808
One wrong step
could've made everything fall apart.

23:56.268 --> 23:57.269
Well,

23:57.352 --> 24:00.188
I guess he does give off
that kind of image.

24:01.815 --> 24:04.192
Like he could just disappear
all of a sudden.

24:04.276 --> 24:05.152
Stop it.

24:09.823 --> 24:13.076
For the first time,
I felt scared of music.

24:14.786 --> 24:16.580
In times like this,

24:17.497 --> 24:23.128
all you can do
is keep playing the drums like crazy.

25:47.254 --> 25:48.672
Hey, Miss Ambition.

25:50.173 --> 25:52.717
Thank you for having us at the Yaon.

25:53.718 --> 25:55.720
Yeah, that's right. You should thank us.

25:56.304 --> 25:58.181
Is OVER CHROME also recording?

25:59.015 --> 26:00.016
Hit them.

26:00.100 --> 26:01.142
Hit them?

26:01.226 --> 26:02.227
I said hit them!

26:33.633 --> 26:35.218
Do you have a thing for Naoki?

26:35.302 --> 26:37.178
Huh? Where did that come from?

26:37.262 --> 26:39.180
You were playing just like Naoki,

26:39.264 --> 26:41.141
so I thought you two
had done it at least once.

26:41.224 --> 26:43.852
- What?! I just purely want to play--
- Purely?

26:43.935 --> 26:46.896
You didn't forget all that tough talk,
right, Miss Ambition?

26:49.357 --> 26:53.778
You picked a fight with us and forgot
your own sound? Give me a break.

26:55.363 --> 26:56.448
My own sound…

26:57.282 --> 26:58.908
<i>Then bring me the Akane I know.</i>

26:58.992 --> 26:59.909
Right here.

27:01.453 --> 27:02.954
That's why I warned you.

27:03.038 --> 27:04.789
Getting close to Naoki

27:04.873 --> 27:08.877
means you'll either destroy his sound
or destroy yourself.

27:13.548 --> 27:14.674
Give up already.

27:17.469 --> 27:18.511
I won't give up!

27:25.226 --> 27:26.728
If you can keep up, then play.

27:27.228 --> 27:30.607
But if you start sounding like Naoki,
I'll kill you.

27:37.155 --> 27:38.156
Hey!

27:46.831 --> 27:47.749
You suck!

28:15.443 --> 28:17.404
Now you're offbeat.

28:22.158 --> 28:23.535
I'm hungry. Buy me food.

28:26.496 --> 28:27.622
Why should I?

28:32.043 --> 28:34.045
Here's your ramen. Thanks for waiting.

28:34.129 --> 28:35.380
- Thank you.
- Here.

28:37.006 --> 28:38.758
- Thanks for the meal.
- Unbelievable.

28:39.300 --> 28:41.261
What's the big deal? I'm paying for it--

28:41.344 --> 28:44.139
Not putting onions in the ramen here
is blasphemy.

28:50.395 --> 28:51.312
There.

28:56.401 --> 28:57.485
Here we go.

29:03.742 --> 29:04.659
It's so good!

29:05.493 --> 29:09.122
Do you know why Naoki quit music once?

29:11.207 --> 29:12.041
Huh?

29:12.876 --> 29:14.836
Sensei quit music before?

29:17.213 --> 29:20.508
Some guy he used to play with
stole his song.

29:24.220 --> 29:27.474
But in the end, the one who stole it

29:28.183 --> 29:31.311
had his own artistic sense
and musicality completely destroyed.

29:32.395 --> 29:33.605
Serves him right.

29:38.485 --> 29:42.238
The sound of a genius
makes ordinary people unhappy.

29:44.991 --> 29:47.952
Ms. Kai said the same thing.

29:48.036 --> 29:50.246
Don't put me on the same level
as that woman.

29:53.500 --> 29:54.667
Well, well?

29:56.336 --> 29:57.295
Huh?

29:57.378 --> 29:58.922
Hey, where are you going?!

30:00.632 --> 30:02.050
Hey, Genius.

30:04.093 --> 30:04.928
Oh.

30:07.222 --> 30:09.015
I guess coincidences do happen.

30:09.557 --> 30:10.600
How interesting.

30:13.144 --> 30:15.605
So, you're teaming up with Ichidai Isagi?

30:17.398 --> 30:18.983
Where's your pride?

30:19.067 --> 30:21.110
So you'll do anything just to sell?

30:21.194 --> 30:24.781
I have my own vision
and just want to make it work.

30:26.241 --> 30:28.201
Bypassing the agency and Miyako,

30:28.284 --> 30:31.120
and now riding on Naoki Fujitani's
big connections.

30:31.621 --> 30:32.997
What a joke.

30:33.623 --> 30:37.460
No matter what I do,
my name will never be wiped clean.

30:38.211 --> 30:41.381
Then I might as well get my hands dirty
and use every bit of it.

30:41.965 --> 30:44.259
Look who's talking tough,

30:44.342 --> 30:46.511
with that half-dead look on your face.

30:47.011 --> 30:50.473
You think you're handling it,
but aren't you just wearing yourself down?

30:52.225 --> 30:53.268
That's right.

30:54.060 --> 30:55.854
Why not just go and die for real?

31:00.024 --> 31:03.069
If your sound means that much to you,

31:04.529 --> 31:07.699
just write as many masterpieces
as you can and then die already.

31:08.825 --> 31:10.451
Then you'll definitely get to be

31:10.952 --> 31:12.996
a "legendary genius."

31:17.083 --> 31:18.668
Like John Lennon?

31:22.922 --> 31:24.340
That's one way to do it.

31:38.980 --> 31:39.856
Akane?

31:45.653 --> 31:48.907
I have something to do,
so I'm heading home.

31:50.909 --> 31:54.245
Sorry. I'm really sorry!

32:24.317 --> 32:25.318
Akane!

32:27.070 --> 32:28.071
Wait a second!

32:31.824 --> 32:32.659
This…

32:35.328 --> 32:36.162
Here.

32:37.997 --> 32:38.957
Give this a listen.

32:40.083 --> 32:44.337
I re-recorded the bass
and got Kazushi to program parts.

32:51.886 --> 32:52.804
Akane?

32:57.266 --> 32:58.226
I…

33:00.520 --> 33:02.897
Should I not play your sound?

33:06.901 --> 33:08.236
The way I'm playing now…

33:11.698 --> 33:14.075
will I not be able to create
the sound you want?

33:20.748 --> 33:23.042
Akane, let's say…

33:25.795 --> 33:26.754
What if,

33:27.797 --> 33:30.466
by some mistake, I died tomorrow…

33:31.968 --> 33:33.511
and TENBLANK disappeared?

33:34.679 --> 33:35.680
Huh?

33:38.224 --> 33:40.268
Would you never play the drums again?

33:51.529 --> 33:53.364
Sorry, it was just a hypothetical.

33:54.157 --> 33:55.158
See you tomorrow.

34:24.479 --> 34:27.315
<i>I guess he does give off</i>
<i>that kind of image.</i>

34:29.567 --> 34:31.652
Like he could just disappear
all of a sudden.

35:15.863 --> 35:16.823
- Akane.
- I'll play!

35:19.826 --> 35:22.453
Even if you're gone
and TENBLANK disappears,

35:23.037 --> 35:26.958
I'll find my own sound and play it!

35:33.464 --> 35:34.423
But…

35:37.552 --> 35:39.762
just don't disappear like John Lennon.

36:23.556 --> 36:25.808
Yeah, we'll go with this.

36:44.285 --> 36:45.161
I'm going now!

36:45.244 --> 36:46.204
Have a good day.

37:31.582 --> 37:34.669
<i>I'm sure I felt it</i>

37:34.752 --> 37:37.838
<i>Is there even any point</i>

37:37.922 --> 37:42.134
<i>In separating dreams from reality?</i>

37:42.218 --> 37:44.553
<i>In a distant melody</i>

38:06.033 --> 38:09.120
<i>The way you held your umbrella</i>

38:09.203 --> 38:12.415
<i>Taught me everything about kindness</i>

38:12.498 --> 38:15.501
<i>I hung my head and cried</i>
