01:32.990 --> 01:33.980
<b>Shin!</b>

01:37.730 --> 01:41.660
<b>You've turned into a good-for-nothing
who can't defeat one injured guy!</b>

01:57.950 --> 02:02.080
<b>Hey-hey, have you heard?
Team KATANA fell apart!</b>

02:02.150 --> 02:05.280
<b>You're so behind the times, idiot.
How long ago are you talking about?</b>

02:05.350 --> 02:06.650
<b>I heard it's an inner conflict.</b>

02:06.720 --> 02:09.660
<b>All of them are in the hospital
for at least three months!</b>

02:09.720 --> 02:12.630
<b>Come on, it's not everyone,
you know...</b>

02:12.690 --> 02:14.290
<b>Oh, THAT...</b>

02:14.360 --> 02:16.730
<b>Yeah, I heard
there was one guy left.</b>

02:16.800 --> 02:17.860
<b>Is that so?</b>

02:17.930 --> 02:21.630
<b>Well, in either case,
it's all over for KATANA.</b>

02:27.110 --> 02:30.010
<b>I'm sorry to cause
so much trouble...</b>

02:30.080 --> 02:31.870
<b>N-Not at all.</b>

02:33.750 --> 02:35.240
<b>What is it that you want?</b>

02:37.150 --> 02:39.450
<b>I'm thinking about
a closing ceremony for KATANA.</b>

02:41.060 --> 02:46.320
<b>You can say that Team KATANA
has already disappeared.</b>

02:46.390 --> 02:49.690
<b>I'm sure that nobody would show up,
even if I call it a meeting.</b>

02:51.130 --> 02:54.160
<b>Mitsuomi... I want you to come,
even if nobody else does.</b>

03:03.880 --> 03:06.680
<b>The time has finally
come for me to reign!</b>

03:06.750 --> 03:08.870
<b>Oh, Yoshiki, you're out to go for it!</b>

03:08.950 --> 03:10.880
<b>There's no one like the captain
of the Second Karate Club!</b>

03:10.950 --> 03:13.080
<b>We'll cheer for you!</b>

03:14.160 --> 03:16.020
<b>While the guys of
KATANA were around...</b>

03:16.090 --> 03:18.820
<b>...I thought I would live
in the shadows until I graduated.</b>

03:19.630 --> 03:22.530
<b>The little Takayanagi boy
who is said to be the next head...</b>

03:22.600 --> 03:24.090
<b>...is only a freshman.</b>

03:24.170 --> 03:26.400
<b>So for me, a senior...</b>

03:27.640 --> 03:29.190
<b>...it's so easy.</b>

03:31.170 --> 03:34.840
<b>Luck is part of one's skills.</b>

03:34.910 --> 03:38.370
<b>Is he saying this for real?
"Taking reign" and "skill" and all that?</b>

03:38.450 --> 03:41.010
<b>Let's keep him at it.
It's funny.</b>

03:41.080 --> 03:43.450
<b>Natsume, look out!</b>

03:43.520 --> 03:46.010
<b>Your panties are in plain view!</b>

03:46.090 --> 03:49.550
<b>Hmm? A closing ceremony
for KATANA, huh...</b>

03:49.620 --> 03:50.780
<b>Yeah...</b>

03:50.860 --> 03:52.290
<b>You and Brother...</b>

03:53.360 --> 03:55.520
<b>A closing ceremony
with just two people.</b>

03:59.600 --> 04:02.660
<b>That monster is growing.</b>

04:03.340 --> 04:07.740
<b>Combining with all sorts of things,
fusing together, writhing together...</b>

04:08.880 --> 04:12.540
<b>Why... me...?</b>

04:12.610 --> 04:14.740
<b>Hmm?</b>

04:20.150 --> 04:23.210
<b>Which guy is Mitsuomi Takayanagi?</b>

04:23.290 --> 04:26.660
<b>I, Yoshiki Kato,
who is said to be next in line...</b>

04:26.730 --> 04:29.390
<b>...to be Executive Council President,
came all the way out here!</b>

04:32.000 --> 04:34.430
<b>Huh? So it's you...?</b>

04:39.740 --> 04:43.610
<b>After school, at 3:00PM,
behind Gymnasium #2.</b>

04:46.980 --> 04:48.140
<b>Don't you run away!</b>

04:50.790 --> 04:52.380
<b>That was so cool!</b>

04:54.360 --> 04:57.150
<b>Oh man, he's serious!</b>

04:57.220 --> 04:58.690
<b>I wish I didn't tag along...</b>

05:03.500 --> 05:07.700
<b>A letter of challenge nowadays...
This is pretty amusing.</b>

05:07.770 --> 05:10.830
<b>The people of this academy
are all amusing.</b>

05:10.910 --> 05:14.930
<b>Come to think of it, this will be
your debut battle at this academy.</b>

05:15.010 --> 05:16.070
<b>Well, do your best.</b>

05:23.180 --> 05:24.480
<b>Mitsuomi...</b>

05:27.190 --> 05:29.450
<b>Now say, "Aah".</b>

05:31.130 --> 05:32.320
<b>"Aah".</b>

05:36.000 --> 05:36.990
<b>"Aah".</b>

05:39.870 --> 05:44.360
<b>I think this is a hundred times
more tasty than what Maya makes.</b>

05:51.610 --> 05:54.340
<b>Don't be so rough.</b>

05:55.580 --> 05:58.070
<b>I'm not here to play
around either, you know.</b>

06:00.190 --> 06:02.590
<b>There are two things
to inform you of.</b>

06:02.660 --> 06:04.920
<b>Bunshichi left the hospital today.</b>

06:04.990 --> 06:09.730
<b>Everyone in the hospital was amazed
at his unbelievable recovery.</b>

06:12.170 --> 06:16.100
<b>Bunshichi's punch hurt, didn't it?</b>

06:16.170 --> 06:18.100
<b>In more ways than one...</b>

06:19.610 --> 06:22.100
<b>And what's the other report?</b>

06:24.180 --> 06:27.610
<b>The surveillance report on you
will be released today.</b>

06:29.850 --> 06:32.080
<b>It's the decision of management
that data samples...</b>

06:32.150 --> 06:35.180
<b>...for Shin Natsume
are no longer necessary.</b>

06:36.220 --> 06:38.890
<b>The Takayanagi family's
backup for your actions...</b>

06:38.960 --> 06:43.690
<b>...and financial support they provided
as reward for the data collection...</b>

06:43.760 --> 06:45.630
<b>...will all disappear now.</b>

06:46.470 --> 06:50.030
<b>In other words, today is
the last day of my job...</b>

06:53.740 --> 07:00.610
<b>I hated my orders to death...
when I first heard of them...</b>

07:00.680 --> 07:02.210
<b>I mean, think about it.</b>

07:02.280 --> 07:04.580
<b>My family is said
to be a prestigious one...</b>

07:04.650 --> 07:06.810
<b>...and I grew up with
no handicaps whatsoever.</b>

07:06.890 --> 07:10.650
<b>And all of a sudden, I'm a girlfriend
of a data sample like you.</b>

07:11.230 --> 07:15.130
<b>Head-over-heels in love
with his sister, selfish and stubborn...</b>

07:15.200 --> 07:17.290
<b>...and possessing two such
different personalities...</b>

07:17.360 --> 07:20.660
<b>...that nobody knows
what he'd do if he snapped.</b>

07:22.500 --> 07:24.130
<b>On top of that...</b>

07:27.210 --> 07:28.870
<b>...he was a murderer.</b>

07:37.020 --> 07:41.890
<b>You... You haven't changed
one bit from when we first met.</b>

07:43.260 --> 07:44.420
<b>That's right...</b>

07:44.490 --> 07:46.520
<b>The one that changed...</b>

07:46.590 --> 07:47.690
<b>...is me.</b>

08:01.180 --> 08:02.940
<b>I'll drop by again.</b>

08:03.010 --> 08:06.210
<b>This time as a friend.
I'll bring snacks.</b>

08:07.110 --> 08:09.710
<b>Because it looks like
you won't eat my lunch.</b>

08:26.970 --> 08:29.060
<b>T-These guys are...?</b>

08:43.750 --> 08:47.020
<b>W-What are you doing?
This is my...!</b>

08:47.090 --> 08:48.610
<b>Were you able to win?</b>

08:48.690 --> 08:50.450
<b>W-What?</b>

08:50.520 --> 08:54.050
<b>I'm asking whether or not you were
able to win against them!</b>

08:55.500 --> 08:58.730
<b>I don't want to see you defeated
by anyone other than me...</b>

08:58.800 --> 09:01.600
<b>...and have you crawling
around on the ground!</b>

09:01.670 --> 09:03.760
<b>Especially if it's against
weak underlings!</b>

09:05.740 --> 09:07.970
<b>I can hear it as well.</b>

09:08.040 --> 09:10.010
<b>The voices of a monster
that rests within the heart!</b>

09:17.120 --> 09:18.050
<b>Slow!</b>

09:26.490 --> 09:29.330
<b>The stiffness of the muscles
deprives sudden movements...</b>

09:29.400 --> 09:31.990
<b>...and the indecision of the heart
deprives one of the power to decide...</b>

09:34.800 --> 09:36.130
<b>Mitsuomi...</b>

09:36.200 --> 09:38.570
<b>"I can't even win against
the fear within myself...</b>

09:38.640 --> 09:41.200
<b>...and I call myself a martial artist?"</b>

09:41.280 --> 09:44.940
<b>Is that the big question
you're facing right now?</b>

09:45.580 --> 09:47.600
<b>W-What do you mean?</b>

09:47.680 --> 09:52.210
<b>You're not the only one
that a monster is resting in...</b>

09:53.020 --> 09:56.580
<b>I have a monsterjust for me
resting inside of me...</b>

09:57.720 --> 10:00.520
<b>But still, it is myself as well.</b>

10:00.590 --> 10:04.550
<b>Fear, cry, writhe, crawl...</b>

10:06.100 --> 10:09.230
<b>Actually, it may be
what I really am...</b>

10:12.740 --> 10:13.970
<b>When was it?</b>

10:14.040 --> 10:17.240
<b>The rhythm of your fists that you
"randomly" lashed out in the dojo...</b>

10:20.050 --> 10:24.010
<b>You said that such a thing
wasn't your fists...</b>

10:24.080 --> 10:25.310
<b>But I liked it.</b>

10:26.990 --> 10:28.780
<b>Your real self, not a martial artist...</b>

10:28.860 --> 10:31.450
<b>...was creating a rhythm
with your writhing...</b>

10:33.130 --> 10:36.120
<b>It's a rhythm that feels good...</b>

10:36.200 --> 10:38.160
<b>...with both of your fists
carrying sounds of life.</b>

10:47.910 --> 10:50.740
<b>Oh, this is no good.</b>

10:50.810 --> 10:52.800
<b>What in the world happened
to you, Mitsuomi?</b>

10:59.020 --> 11:02.150
<b>A silly little toy for the elderly...</b>

11:05.190 --> 11:09.600
<b>Bunshichi... what the hell
are you here for today?</b>

11:10.700 --> 11:13.430
<b>Is it bad for me
to visit a good friend?</b>

11:16.870 --> 11:19.200
<b>You still say stuffy things...</b>

11:20.470 --> 11:22.840
<b>That's one of my traits...</b>

11:25.780 --> 11:28.340
<b>Are you serious about holding
a closing ceremony for KATANA?</b>

11:28.420 --> 11:30.850
<b>Yeah, I'm serious...</b>

11:30.920 --> 11:33.480
<b>I didn't hear about this...</b>

11:33.550 --> 11:37.120
<b>I mean, you don't have
a bike right now...</b>

11:37.190 --> 11:39.090
<b>...and with those legs,
you can't sit behind someone else...</b>

11:39.160 --> 11:42.820
<b>Why is itjust Mitsuomi?</b>

11:46.700 --> 11:49.290
<b>That's so funny.</b>

11:46.700 --> 11:49.290
<b>What are we gonna do today?</b>

11:49.370 --> 11:51.700
<b>Are you free after school?</b>

11:53.310 --> 11:55.500
<b>The closing ceremony is tomorrow.</b>

11:55.580 --> 11:57.940
<b>Honestly, I'm scared
of going tomorrow.</b>

12:00.910 --> 12:03.680
<b>She's ditching again...</b>

12:04.280 --> 12:06.120
<b>Has she ever attended class?</b>

12:12.030 --> 12:14.650
<b>Her... and Miss Kuzunoha...?</b>

12:16.360 --> 12:18.760
<b>W-Why?</b>

12:22.840 --> 12:24.960
<b>The weather's nice, isn't it?</b>

12:25.040 --> 12:27.510
<b>I'm sorry for calling you out
so suddenly.</b>

12:27.570 --> 12:29.600
<b>No... What brought us here?</b>

12:29.680 --> 12:32.080
<b>Don't make me lose faith in you!</b>

12:32.150 --> 12:35.840
<b>Are you so stupid that you can't figure
out what I want without asking?</b>

12:43.520 --> 12:47.690
<b>I make sure to take every fight
that people pick with me...</b>

12:47.760 --> 12:50.730
<b>...but I have no reason
to fight against you.</b>

12:53.470 --> 12:55.370
<b>You really are a fortunate girl.</b>

13:19.290 --> 13:21.230
<b>I'm sure they came this way...</b>

13:21.300 --> 13:22.890
<b>In the first place...</b>

13:22.960 --> 13:27.490
<b>I was the one who suggested
to Shin that he create KATANA.</b>

13:27.570 --> 13:31.730
<b>Because it must be boring to spend
every day being watched over...</b>

13:31.810 --> 13:35.070
<b>It seems like such a petty reason...</b>

13:35.140 --> 13:38.870
<b>...but actually it was an order
from the Takayanagi clan...</b>

13:38.950 --> 13:41.570
<b>...saying that they'd be able
to gather more data...</b>

13:41.650 --> 13:43.840
<b>...than in an ordinary
school environment.</b>

13:44.550 --> 13:48.450
<b>Of course, I think
he was fully aware of that...</b>

13:48.520 --> 13:52.080
<b>But he seemed to be amused
by it more than expected.</b>

13:53.160 --> 13:58.600
<b>He started fixing a tattered bike
that he found somewhere...</b>

14:02.400 --> 14:04.200
<b>That was when he first
talked to me...</b>

14:04.270 --> 14:07.430
<b>...as someone other than
his surveillance...</b>

14:08.610 --> 14:10.840
<b>Like how the engine
finally started up...</b>

14:10.910 --> 14:13.310
<b>...or how he went
to the next town over...</b>

14:13.380 --> 14:15.280
<b>...to find parts for his bike
with Bunshichi...</b>

14:17.280 --> 14:20.620
<b>Just like a normal
high school student.</b>

14:20.690 --> 14:25.220
<b>A small glimmer of light that he found
wandering about in the darkness...</b>

14:26.030 --> 14:30.220
<b>Unlike you, a small, faint light.</b>

14:31.130 --> 14:33.030
<b>At first, it was awkward.</b>

14:33.100 --> 14:38.330
<b>But slowly, little by little, he was
trying to nurture that light...</b>

14:39.410 --> 14:42.860
<b>...that light called friendship,
very carefully...</b>

14:42.940 --> 14:44.570
<b>That's it!</b>

14:45.410 --> 14:50.850
<b>Do you know why he kept everything
a secret, even from Bunshichi?</b>

14:50.920 --> 14:52.580
<b>You don't, do you?</b>

14:53.350 --> 14:55.840
<b>He didn't want them
to be involved...</b>

14:55.920 --> 14:59.590
<b>Not his friends, in the world
of darkness covered in blood...</b>

15:00.190 --> 15:04.960
<b>That faint light might someday have
engulfed everything about him.</b>

15:05.030 --> 15:08.330
<b>He might have been able to find
a way out of the darkness.</b>

15:08.400 --> 15:09.370
<b>However...</b>

15:09.440 --> 15:11.700
<b>YOU ruined everything!</b>

15:14.810 --> 15:19.370
<b>If you... If you didn't do something
as foolish as KATANA-hunting, he...</b>

15:19.450 --> 15:21.810
<b>...he wouldn't have had
to betray his friends!</b>

15:24.890 --> 15:26.980
<b>A ridiculous story...</b>

15:27.050 --> 15:31.890
<b>Light exists from the beginning
equally with the darkness...</b>

15:31.960 --> 15:34.620
<b>If the surroundings are darkness...</b>

15:34.690 --> 15:38.460
<b>...it is only that my brother
put himself inside that darkness.</b>

15:39.970 --> 15:40.800
<b>Right?</b>

15:40.870 --> 15:44.500
<b>This world is so full of light...</b>

15:48.710 --> 15:50.700
<b>My brother is very lucky...</b>

15:51.510 --> 15:53.980
<b>Two such beautiful women...</b>

15:54.050 --> 15:56.910
<b>...are taking such good care
of him with this and that.</b>

16:08.860 --> 16:10.120
<b>You were watching?</b>

16:10.200 --> 16:11.490
<b>I'm sorry...</b>

16:13.470 --> 16:19.340
<b>Today... I had been so dead set
on giving her a good punch. I...</b>

16:19.410 --> 16:20.370
<b>Yeah...</b>

16:21.340 --> 16:24.110
<b>I couldn't do it.
As frustrating as it is...</b>

16:27.010 --> 16:29.740
<b>I think I face a devastating loss...</b>

16:34.920 --> 16:36.750
<b>I didn't know anything.</b>

16:37.960 --> 16:40.720
<b>Because you were starting
to fall for Maya...</b>

16:40.790 --> 16:43.290
<b>...there was one more reason
to approach you.</b>

16:44.130 --> 16:47.500
<b>I had to get in the way
no matter what happened.</b>

16:47.570 --> 16:51.300
<b>Because if you were
to get along with Maya...</b>

16:52.410 --> 16:54.810
<b>...Shin would be sad.</b>

16:55.380 --> 17:00.640
<b>I didn't even try to know what
they had decided in their minds...</b>

17:00.710 --> 17:02.910
<b>Nor his pain.</b>

17:05.250 --> 17:08.120
<b>All I did was...</b>

17:11.530 --> 17:13.050
<b>I liked it.</b>

17:13.130 --> 17:14.420
<b>Your real self, not a martial artist...</b>

17:14.490 --> 17:16.190
<b>...was creating a rhythm
with your tense movements...</b>

17:25.510 --> 17:27.970
<b>I'm so pitiful...</b>

17:30.710 --> 17:33.650
<b>What am I doing all alone?!</b>

17:33.710 --> 17:37.410
<b>This is no place for me
to drop by right now!</b>

17:37.480 --> 17:39.480
<b>Mitsuomi Takayanagi!</b>

17:39.550 --> 17:40.990
<b>All right!</b>

17:53.030 --> 17:54.830
<b>Hey, come on!</b>

17:54.900 --> 17:57.060
<b>What team are you on, huh?</b>

17:57.770 --> 17:59.330
<b>Why don't you answer, dammit?</b>

17:59.410 --> 18:02.270
<b>Huh? KATANA?</b>

18:02.340 --> 18:03.310
<b>Where's that from?</b>

18:19.430 --> 18:20.260
<b>Hey.</b>

18:20.390 --> 18:21.360
<b>Hey.</b>

18:22.400 --> 18:25.830
<b>T-That's why I told you not to...</b>

18:25.900 --> 18:29.030
<b>T-That guy is a monster...</b>

18:29.740 --> 18:32.730
<b>It's 10 kilometers
from here to the harbor.</b>

18:32.810 --> 18:35.670
<b>It's about 20 minutes
if we take it slow.</b>

18:35.740 --> 18:38.680
<b>How fast can you get there,
Mitsuomi?</b>

18:38.750 --> 18:41.580
<b>I can get there faster than you, Shin...</b>

18:41.650 --> 18:43.010
<b>...if you're talking about today.</b>

18:44.020 --> 18:46.750
<b>Speak after you win, little boy!</b>

19:12.910 --> 19:14.740
<b>Mitsuomi...</b>

19:14.810 --> 19:19.050
<b>Do you believe that babies
are all born completely naked?</b>

19:21.220 --> 19:25.280
<b>I think it's nothing but a lie.</b>

19:25.360 --> 19:30.190
<b>Humans are all born carrying
lots of things within them...</b>

19:31.060 --> 19:35.020
<b>Like how you were born as heir
to the Takayanagi clan...</b>

19:35.100 --> 19:37.070
<b>Or this power of mine.</b>

19:37.140 --> 19:39.110
<b>But the clothes you put on
after you're born...</b>

19:39.170 --> 19:41.040
<b>...differ from person to person.</b>

19:42.580 --> 19:44.770
<b>That's the only saving grace.</b>

19:48.650 --> 19:50.050
<b>In the thundering roar...</b>

19:50.120 --> 19:53.550
<b>...the conversation we held
as we raced at high speed...</b>

19:53.620 --> 19:58.060
<b>...something that only people who can
race at the same speed can hear...</b>

19:58.120 --> 20:01.030
<b>Can you keep up with me,
Mitsuomi?</b>

20:28.660 --> 20:32.020
<b>I thought someone
would be sure to stop me...</b>

20:32.090 --> 20:34.290
<b>...even when my powers
went out of control...</b>

20:34.360 --> 20:37.300
<b>...if I stayed under Takayanagi
and had my back watched over.</b>

20:38.400 --> 20:42.800
<b>But not one guy was that kind.</b>

20:42.870 --> 20:44.300
<b>For these eight years...</b>

20:46.270 --> 20:51.180
<b>...l'd always been running,
watching only the back of this man...</b>

20:53.410 --> 20:57.010
<b>I need to overcome
this man's back.</b>

20:57.080 --> 20:59.550
<b>I need to pass this man!</b>

21:00.620 --> 21:03.680
<b>Mitsuomi... if I...</b>

21:03.760 --> 21:08.020
<b>Shin... I think I'll start
running in front now...</b>

21:12.630 --> 21:14.360
<b>Why me?</b>

21:15.070 --> 21:18.800
<b>I had been waiting all this time
for you to enter the academy...</b>

21:19.570 --> 21:22.370
<b>Mitsuomi... I want you to come,
even if nobody else does.</b>

21:22.880 --> 21:27.400
<b>That night, I finally understood...</b>

21:27.480 --> 21:31.920
<b>If he lost the battle
against himself...</b>

21:31.990 --> 21:34.890
<b>...I would be the one
to drop the curtain...</b>

21:35.720 --> 21:39.250
<b>And he was wishing
for me to do so.</b>

23:14.720 --> 23:17.890
<b>The wound that is engraved
is a guidepost to the future.</b>

23:17.960 --> 23:20.890
<b>It guides the present towards
the new truth that is to come.</b>

23:20.960 --> 23:23.790
<b>Next episode of Tenjho Tenge,
"Conclusion".</b>

23:24.160 --> 23:26.970
<b>Boy, what do you see in there?</b>
