Something dim and distant...
...fades away into the hazy mist beyond.
These are memories I should have held on to.
But before I knew it, they were gone.
I try to recall them,
but they continue to disappear as if running away.
For example, memories of a child you once played with.
Performing in a class play in primary school.
And cheerfully playing together after school.
We ran around, collecting all of these memories.
Those glimmering moments we experienced fade away with the passing days
and eventually disappear, as though none of it had ever occurred at all.
Just which memories do people need in order to continue to live on?
Throughout the thousands of days we've lived through
and the tens of thousands more we have ahead of us,
No U-turn
we feel.
And we forget.
If I were told that I am just an amalgamation of a vast collection of faint memories,
then that would be too fleeting and uncertain for me to bear.
Which is why, in order to continue being who I am,
and so that I can keep being myself,
I say this:
Will you...
Will you...

In regards to the Literature Club's
reason for existence

An old man and his wife lived in a place far away.
The old man went into the mountain to cut grass...
Wait.
What is it?
Why's he going off to cut grass?
It's probably his job.
He's making a living off cutting and selling grass?
Is he a landscaper?
He might be collecting it to feed livestock.
Which means that these two live and work on a farm, is that right?
Probably.
The old man's wife washed some clothes in the river...
Wait.
What now?
Why's she going down to the river to do her laundry?
Well, that's her job.
That's odd.
I thought we just agreed that this household runs a farm.
I don't think we really agreed on it, but hold on.
"Job" here is talking about chores, right?
So she's a housewife, then.
Well, probably.
Die.
Why?!
Inequality towards women. And to add to that,
your outdated views that women should be doing household chores.
Well, I can't help that!
I mean, this story itself is outdated!
She's washing clothes in the river.
I wouldn't be so sure about that.
For example, this might be in a world 3 million years after a war divided the universe.
It could be a story about an Earth-type planet whose science and technology have all been stolen.
Space
Shibahime
That's way too ambitious.
Anyway, I suppose this is enough to count as a greeting.
That was your way of greeting me?!
I started off with this idle talk just for you,
since you're a communication-deprived boy who can't even say "Hello." or "Good morning." honestly.
You should be thankful.
Which one of us isn't the honest one, I wonder?
I don't want to hear that from you.
It's been a few months since then.
Alright, alright.
The Beyond the Boundary went back inside me,
and the world returned to its usual form.
Kuriyama-san even came back.
Mitsuki stayed in the Literature Club,
and continued the literature selections which seemed to progress at a snail's pace.
Ayaka-san and Ai-chan continued appraising youmu at the photo studio.
Nino-san, while continuing to be dumped by men,
Ninomiya-sensei got dumped last night!
would vigorously seek to defeat youmu as if to vent her anger.
And Hiroomi, having graduated high school,
succeeded the Nase household in light of Izumi-san's disappearance.
We all thought that everything had gone back to normal.
But inside one of us, something was changing.
Umm...
And, so...
If I could stop... If I could stop, I would have stopped a long time ago!
Senpai!
How unpleasant.
Why are you...
Why are you so nice to me, Senpai?
And, so...
...who are you?
I'm not sure if that was the Beyond the Boundary's final act of defiance,
or if this was some necessary sacrifice in order for Kuriyama-san to continue to live on.
But either way, Kuriyama Mirai's memories
were cleanly and beautifully sheared off.
The memory that she was a member of the Cursed Blood's clan,
and her fight with the Beyond the Boundary.
And...
Even the time the two of us spent together.
Any changes?
Nah. My height, weight, and blood pressure are all normal.
I don't mean you.
Kuriyama-san.
She hasn't changed.
Thankfully.
I see.
Is that really something to be thankful for?
Mirai.
I-Inami-san?
Sakura's fine.
Oh, sorry.
What were you doing?
Umm, this is...
This is a collection of things I think are nice, or pretty.
Bon...?
Old...
I don't want to forget anymore.
I don't want to forget the things and people I'm fond of.
That's why I'm collecting these and leaving them behind.
But even if I do forget again, they'll just be the same.
What's this?
Oh, that's...
What?
Umm...
What?
No, it's...
What?
Okay, I'll tell you!
And? What is it?
This is...
It's something I thought was really pretty.
I thought it would be nice to go to a place like this with someone important to me.
Mirai...
Mirai-chan!
Sakura-chan!
Why am I here too?
Huh? Because Sakura-chan...
I thought that you might like tennis.
Come to tennis club
Currently recruiting!!
Try it out for yourself!
I appreciate your kindness, but I'm not really suited for this...
Alright, next person please!
Okay!
Here I go.
There!
Nice return! You're incredible!
Oh, it's nothing. I'm only simply just trying very—
D-Do I have to do this too?!
Here I go.
There!
Okay!
You're doing it!
No I'm not!
That concludes our club experience session!
I'll be awaiting all your replies!
Okay!
Where have you been playing tennis until now?
What? I'm not really sure...
They're really scouting her.
Chase them, Mirai!
I'm not suited for tennis.
Besides, I don't want to join the tennis club in second year.
Then what club do you want to join?
W-Well I don't really want to join, but...
One of the cultural arts.
Drama Club, SciFi Research Club, Film Discussion Club.
There's also... the Literature Club...
There's no such club.
There is! I saw it written down!
Why the Literature Club? You don't really read books.
Well, it just seems kind of quiet...
And I was thinking I might want to read some books.
And the truth?
That is the truth!
Kanbara-senpai has nothing to do with it!
I'm... going to... drink some water.
Ow!
I told you before,
Kanbara Akihito is just a pervert who happened to pass by.
I... I said he's got nothing to do with it!
He's a dull and introverted guy.
And he's at the bottom of the "Guys who you want to date" list in our class.
Why are you telling me that?
You... shouldn't go near him.
But he was the first person I saw when I came to.
It was Senpai.
I keep telling you!
But—
Mirai!
Mirai!
Mirai...
My head feels kind of funny.
Is this love?
No.
Why was he there at that time?
And why did he look so sad?
A while after that, I asked him about it.
Dunno. I forget.
Are you done?
As he said those words, he turned his back to me and has avoided me since.
Over there?
Again?
Yes.
A few Spirit Warriors were taken out.
Is it still close by?
Looks like there wasn't any point in searching.
It seems like we're
the ones being targeted!
And? Are these youmu, or just puppets?
We're still not sure.
I see.
Then Ayaka had better buy them for a good price!
Wha—
I even cut apart the space inside them!
I guess we couldn't get all of them.
This is the fifth incident since last week.
If they're not youmu or puppets, what the hell are they?
Hey!
I'm going after them!
Nino-san, contact my people!
Try not to do something crazy.
What are you going to do about joining a club?
I mean, I still have to think about finding a job...
I'll do something about it. We've been friends since we were little, after all.
Since we were little...
I'm sorry. We're supposed to be friends,
but I don't remember any of it.
Don't worry about it.
We can just start being friends from here on out.
Okay.
Inami-san?
Wh-What is it?
What is that? CG?
No.
This way!
Where are we going, Inami-san?
Just follow me!
Who are you?!
Mirai, run away.
But Inami-san!
Hurry!
Lonesome one.
Do you wish to know
who you are?
Who I am?
Kuriyama-san!
S-Senpai!
Th-Thank you very much.
So this is where they were.
Inami-san!
Don't worry. She's just unconscious.
The Nase household?
You're quick.
Mirai...
He broke my cage so easily...
More importantly, what's with that outfit?
Do you like it?
I ordered these to try and match your sense of style.
Just what kind of fashion sense do I have?
We should be focusing on that man.
Oh, Mitsuki! How adorable you look!
Your level of adorableness as a little sister has gone up again in your third year!
Don't you two see each other every day?
No, it's been about two weeks since we last saw each other.
I suppose such problems do arise in a large house.
No, I think she's just avoiding you.
Kuriyama-san.
Yes?
Did that man say anything earlier?
He asked me
if I wanted to know who I was.
Umm...
Can you tell me?
Tell you what?
About me.
You know... don't you?
You all know who I am, and what I've done.
Who are you, Senpai?
You know who I am, and we shared a past together.
And...!
Kuriyama-san.
I told you, didn't I?
I just happened to pass by when you regained consciousness.
But...
But then, why did you look so sad?
Why did you cry when you saw me?
Senpai!
Alright, I'll tell you the truth.
The thing is... Akkey has an extreme glasses fetish.
He's a dangerous man who will go after any cute girl
regardless of who they are, and makes them wear glasses.
And having met you by coincidence, he asked you to wear a pair of glasses.
But when you declined, he was overcome by shock and fell to the ground crying.
Is that true?
Is that really the truth?
Yeah.
I understand.
You're probably sensing some kind of fate between you two
just because Akihito was the first person you saw.
I'm sorry. Thank you very much.
Mirai, wait!
South

North
I don't need to tell you this,
but there's no change in the fact that she's one of the Cursed Blood.
There's a possibility that her blood can return her lost memories to her.
If that happens, what are you going to do?
"Those memories are false, and aren't to be trusted."
Is what I'll tell her.
And do you intend to keep fooling her like that?
I do.
Is that really a good thing?
To continue to fool her... To prevent her from getting her memories back?
She has the chance the forget it all.
She can leave her fate behind and live out her life as a human.
That is a very fortunate thing.
And did Kuriyama-san say that herself, Akkey?
Is that really something that you can decide for her?
I know that.
No, you don't!
If you do...
If you do, then do this right!
Telling such a lie...
Why do you want to avoid me so much?
One, two...!
One, two...!
There's no way.
Huh?
Did I cut myself earlier?
Oh.
Nagatsuki Municipal Senior High School
Literature Club
Kuriyama Mirai, second year!
I'll be joining the Literature Club from today.
I look forward to our time in this club together!
I've also been given the position of club vice president, so I look forward to those duties as well!
Hold on a minute.
Oh, you've got bonsai trees growing in here!
Wow!
They're all so modest and very nice!
Who's been growing them? They look like they've been taken care of very well!
We still haven't approved your entry into the club.
Nase Hiroomi
Kanbara Akihito
Nase Mitsuki
But Nase-senpai asked me if I wanted to join the Literature Club.
Mitsuki did?
Oh, you two are early.
What are you doing?
We agreed not to make her environment similar to before,
so that she wouldn't regain her memories.
Things have changed. Do you remember what happened yesterday?
That hooded guy?
Yeah. Turns out he's quite the problem.
He uses these creatures that aren't youmu nor puppets,
and goes after Spirit Warriors.
Based on what he said yesterday,
it's obvious that he knows a lot about Kuriyama-san.
So you want to put her under protective custody?
Normally, yes.
But if we do that, we'll have to tell her the truth.
I asked my brother to avoid doing that, you know.
Just put up with being in the same club.
Though...
Do you really intend to keep up this charade?
Are you really okay with that?
Umm... So... What should I do?
Did I say something I shouldn't have?
No, he's just an idiot is all.
Is something wrong?
Oh, it's nothing.
Just...
I kind of feel like I'm finally able to calm down.

Thank you for waiting!
Here is your Americano.
And? How do things look?
No changes from what I've seen.
What about the identity of the shadows?
Well...
Judging from what we know of the Spirit Warriors who've been attacked, they don't seem like puppets.
Some of the Spirit Warriors who were taken out have been near A-rank in strength.
Whoever's behind this must be fairly powerful.
Mere puppets wouldn't have been able to defeat those Spirit Warriors.
So you're saying they're youmu?
As much as I'd like to say that, don't you think their methods are a bit too frivolous?
They simply appear in groups and collectively charge at a Spirit Warrior.
If they were youmu, they'd be more selective about their methods when attacking a Spirit Warrior.
So what you're saying is we can't deny either possibility.
I suppose so.
We'll have to bide our time and monitor them a little longer.
Do you really have the time for that?
I often hear people asking what the hell you're doing
acting so carefree like you are.
"That child is out of his depth trying to control this area."
Aya-chan...
I'm only speaking the truth.
We youmu are allied with your household because it suits both of our interests.
And if that crumbles...
I understand that.
Hiroomi-san!
I'm really sorry!
I think Aya-chan just has a lot of expectations of you.
That's why she said that.
I'm sorry to have made you worry about me.
It's not that!
We like it!
Being here... Aya-chan and I like being here.
So we want you to protect what we have.
Thank you.
No problem!
Do you really intend to stay here whenever your club's on?
I couldn't do it.
I tried doing everything you asked me to do,
but it didn't work.
You're still somewhere inside Mirai. You haven't disappeared.
She's right.
Kuriyama-san approached me.
Umm, can I ask you something?
What is it?
What kind of... umm...
What kind of relationship do you have with Kanbara-senpai?
And what did you say?
I told her that it was offensive to put the two of us in the same sentence.
In any case, you don't have to tell her the truth.
But you also can't leave things the way they are now.
Go on.
Where to?
To talk to each other.
Aizeriya
Are you really okay with meeting me here?
Well this place isn't too expensive, so don't worry about it.
But why'd you choose this place?
It just kind of caught my eye. Was it a bad idea?
Well, no...
I thought about ramen or gyudon, but I thought that would come off a bit wrong.
You're still somewhere inside Mirai.
You haven't disappeared.
Please enjoy.
You ordered even more?!
Thanks for the meal.
Are you finished already?
Already?
That was plenty!
It's not like I was trying to eat as much as I can just because you offered to pay!
What's wrong?
I'm just glad.
I thought you would be angry.
Of course I wouldn't be angry!
I'm sharing a meal with a pretty girl in glasses, after all.
You... You like glasses, don't you?
Sure I do. Glasses are one's identity as well as they are my whole universe.
I've also brought some glasses which might suit you, by the way.
This one, this one, this one, and this one...
You're got fairly normal eyes, so I think these would be perfect.
How unpleasant!
I just said "How unpleasant!"...
Uh, yeah...
I'm sorry. That was weird, wasn't it?
Saying "How unpleasant!" to you all of a sudden.
It's not weird.
It's not weird.
I'm home.
You mean it cut through the boundary?
You aren't sure where to go from there?
What do you mean?
Hey!
What's going on? Did something happen?
No, Hiroomi-sama has been...
There's no doubt they've been making a move! Find them at all costs!
What's the status of the North squad?
We should be hearing from them shortly.
They're too slow! Contact them from our end!
The Nase kid's sure getting desperate.
Well, there's a whole lot of people who want control of this area.
Did you see that?
You're—!
Has the Literature Club been doing selections of the Shibahime works this whole time?
Yep.
But we've been slacking off for ages, so it'll probably never get done.
So you and Nase-senpai really are...
No way.
Of course not!
Does all of Mitsuki's verbal abuse of me sound like lies?
You're right!
It's hard to think she'd say those things even if it was an act.
Right?
Yeah!
The nights are still cold, aren't they?
Yeah.
So pretty.
Senpai...
This kind of... felt like a date.
D-Don't say something so embarrassing!
Did we do something similar before, Senpai?
Why do you think that?
I just kind of have this feeling. Well, no...
When you looked at me earlier, you had that kind of look on your face.
A nostalgic look.
You've known me from before, haven't you?
You and I were involved in something together, weren't we?
What exactly am I?
What was my relationship with you?
Tell me, please!
The thing is...
The thing is, I wanted to meet with you so I could apologise.
I wanted to apologise for being so insistent.
And I wanted to make today the last day I talked to you.
But when you treated me so kindly today, I...
You are...
You are the most important person to me in my entire life.
You stayed with me from the day we met.
I was able to overcome everything because we were together.
But that also meant that the two of us had to bear a heavy, painful burden.
I don't want you to have to carry that burden any longer.
I don't want you to suffer anymore.
That's why...
That's why you and I...
...can't be together.
I already know.
I already...
And it's not just that.
It's strange, isn't it?
Kuriyama-san...
I'm still not very good at it. But if I try, I can even do this.
Stop it...
And..
Stop it!
I'm weird, aren't I?
I'm not a normal human, am I?
This is the reason I can't be with you, isn't it?
Tell me, please!
Please tell me what this is... and who I am.
If I can at least hear it from you, then I can...
Then I can give up.
No!
If I do that, you'll never be able to become happy.
I just... I just want you to be happy.
Happy?
Am I happy?
Not knowing anything...
Not even knowing who you are...
Is that happiness?!
You're...
Do you still not understand?
What?!
Did those Spirit Warriors really say that before they were killed?
Let me tell you,
daughter of the Cursed Blood.
Cursed...
Let me tell you of the fate you carry.
Stop!
R-Run away, Kuriyama-san...
Kuriyama-san!
S-Senpai!
Run away! Hurry!
B-But you're...
Blood?
Izumi-san?
Let me tell you just who you are, daughter of the Cursed Blood.
And what
you must do.
Stop it!
Nee-san!
What are you...
Stay back, Akkey!
Hiroomi?
Izumi-nee-san!
You can't run away anymore.
No matter where you go,
that spell will tell me your location.
She disappeared?
No, she ran.
You should go home for today, Kuriyama-san.
We'll discuss things again another day.
Okay.
Going after her?
Yeah.
Hey, cut it out!
Say...
What do you think happiness is, Hiroomi?
Each person paves their own way to happiness.
So I can't tell you what happiness is.
But...
If you keep trying to reason with yourself instead of listening to your feelings,
you'll never be able to feel true happiness.
This is the park where...
If you're gonna
play baseball
then you gotta
get in
a
ballsy
mood!
Out!
Safe!
Guess who!
Adults who can't take a joke aren't very fun.
That's far beyond a joke! Go and get changed!
Well, that failed.
Geez...
And? What do you want?
It sounds like a lot's been happening, so I thought I'd come back for a peek.
You're a little late.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I can't believe Izumi ended up like that.
And I thought she was a strong girl who could endure anything.
So why...
I think it was because she was alone.
Izumi-san was probably all alone.
And she probably couldn't talk to Hiroomi or Mitsuki about anything.
Yeah... I think you're right.
Hiroomi-kun and I will do something about Izumi.
So you just have to...
Trying to act like a mother all of a sudden?
Akkun!
H-Hey!
Eat it, eat it!
Geez...
Thanks for the food.
It's cold!
Oh, sorry! I'll go and microwave it.
No...
I'll do it myself.
I have to.
The reaction's growing stronger. She must be close.
I didn't think you'd use such a spell on your sister.
Yet, I sense many more spells.
Those who oppose the Nase household must be dealt with properly.
Opposing the Nase household, huh?
Well, circumstances aside, allowing this to continue will only serve to further taint the Nase name.
The two eldest children out to kill each other...
This is nothing short of a blood feud.
You'd better get it over quickly.
I know.
Alright, I'm coming along with you.
I'm still contracted with you, after all.
Besides...
I've fought her once before.
How unpleasant.
What a strange thing to say.
How unpleasant. How unpleasant.
How unpleasant.
It's not...
...unpleasant.
Why am I crying?
Stupid!
Who is it?
Umm, it's me. Akihito.
Senpai?
Sorry, did I startle you?
What do you want?
I've got a pair of glasses I want you to try on.
Please go home.
Sorry, I was just kidding!
There's something I need to talk to you about.
Can we talk outside?
Sure.
Could you wait a minute?
Yes?
Hello? It's me, Kanbara.
Umm, if it's okay with you... could we meet up right now?
I've been thinking a lot since then, and... is that okay with you?
S-Sure, but why are you calling me?
Well... I didn't want to just turn up at your place.
At my...?
Kuriyama-san!
Is something wrong, Kuriyama-san?
Kuriyama-san?
That voice... is someone there?
Kuriyama-san?
Are you okay? Kuriyama-san? Hello?
I'm coming in!
Sorry to intrude.
Hello? Hello, Kuriyama-san?
Dammit!
Who... are you?
Oh, you hurt me.
Did you forget about me as well?
What was that just now?
Chilling, isn't it? Having the darkness peer into your heart.
My... memories?
You're quick to understand.
Looks like your spirit is being eaten away at quite nicely.
Those insects are a youmu which infect a person and bring out the darkness within them.
And the greater the darkness within them,
the stronger it becomes as it pulls that person further into the darkness.
Lastly, that person will lose hold of even their own existence.
Now, let the darkness show you...
...what fate the clan of the Cursed Blood is carrying.
Monster!
Die!
Just hurry up and die!
This is...
...the Beyond the Boundary.
And this person... This is who I...
Senpai is the person...
...who I have to...
...kill.
That's right. You belong to the clan of the Cursed Blood.
You must kill the Beyond the Boundary... Kanbara Akihito.
You can't run away from this.
The two of you are fated to fight each other to the death.
No...
You say that, but...
How about it? Curse the world around you.
Curse yourself!
How about it? Detest yourself! Resent yourself!
Kuriyama-san!
Kuriyama-san!
That's...
Dammit!
Kuriyama-san!
You're...
You're my...!
What the hell is that?
Is Izumi-nee-san doing that?
No, I doubt that she's capable of producing such an explosion.
There's clearly someone else in play here. An accomplice, maybe.
Or perhaps... the person behind this all.
Fujima Miroku!
I didn't want to consider it, but it's highly likely.
Kuriyama-san...
Mitsuki!
Get back!
Geez. Holding it all in and letting it get to this point...
At least talk to me about it!
Run! It won't hold!
Are you two alright?
This incident isn't Izumi's doing. There's someone else behind this.
If you want to help Mirai-chan, we'll have to go and find them!
But... but how?
Leave that to me!
We're following it!
We're close.
Do you really intend to go through with this?
If someone else is behind all of this, shouldn't you be going after him instead?
It isn't like you to act on your emotions.
I agree.
Though, no matter the current situation, I have to settle things with her.
Are you doing this out of devotion, I wonder? Or just pure ruthlessness?
I'm doing this
because I'm her brother.
I see.
What's this? Ayaka-san!
Go to Kanbara-kun and the others.
What's important to you isn't a sibling's quarrel. It's protecting this town.
And besides...
You wouldn't be able to kill her, would you?
I apologise in advance...
For not going easy on you.
Alright, then. Shall we do this?
This must be the place.
Hey, don't run ahead!
What is this place?
I don't like how this place feels.
Over there!
I guess we've found the person behind all of this!
Who... Who ended up coming here?
Hiroomi-san? Mitsuki-san?
Or maybe Kanbara Akihito-kun?
It's a real shame I couldn't be around to find out.
I'm no longer in this world, you see.
I was finally able to achieve my goal.
Long ago,
when I first implanted that youmu inside Izumi-san,
I also implanted the same youmu inside myself.
I made it so that I could transfer myself into her body when the time was right.
And then...
With her own two hands, she welcomed me into herself.
At last, we can become one.
I'm not alone anymore.
I absolutely hate everyone who denied and refused to accept me.
So I figured I would just create a world for only Izumi-san and I.
I used this youmu for that purpose.
This youmu brings out the darkness in one's heart which they are trying to run from,
and turns that into an illusion which haunts them.
Their fear and uneasiness
makes them believe that they are being chased and attacked by these illusions.
Everyone here has been consumed by that darkness.
What do you think? Don't they all just look so happy?
That's... That's just your ego!
Dammit! What am I supposed to do up against someone who's already dead?!
Happy? Am I happy?
I'm weird, aren't I?
I'm not a normal person, am I?
The two of you, meet up with Hiroomi!
I'm the one Kuriyama-san is after!
I'll find Kuriyama-san and draw her out.
Go and find Hiroomi—
Akihito!
What's wrong?
Oh, there's something I forgot to mention.
This youmu has the ability to possess anyone who looks at it.
Once seen, the darkness will only just grow and spread.
Now watch as this darkness engulfs the Spirit Warriors
and creates a brand new world along with this youmu!
Kuriyama-san...
Kill the Beyond the...
...Boundary. We were born into this world for that reason alone.
Don't ever forget that.
I'm so sorry.
If only... If only I were stronger.
If only I were...
You're wrong.
You're perfect the way you are.
You aren't weak.
Onii-chan!
Akkey!
Ayaka-san!
Izumi... Nee-sama?
Hiroomi! I'll leave Izumi-san to you!
I'll handle Kuriyama-san.
Power?
Yes.
Suppose that you could wield a youmu's power.
You'd be able to protect it all.
Though I must say...
...you truly are beautiful.
Nee-san! I've been chasing after you!
I've been chasing you this whole time!
But I was wrong!
We were wrong.
We should have shared each other's darkness and pain.
We should have walked side-by-side!
—iyama-san...
I just want this to end!
Akihito! If you don't save her,
then who will?!
Akihito!
Why now?
I knew it. This ring...
Mitsuki! The cage! Take down the cage!
But...!
Take it down!
Please!
Kuriyama-san...
I won't die.
Because I...
Kill the Beyond the Boundary.
That is our clan's only hope for atonement.
Is this inside Kuriyama-san's...?
A doorway?
Yes.
Our hatred has opened a doorway which connects our world and the youmu world.
Since long ago, we've called that doorway
the Beyond the Boundary.
Monster!
Die!
Just hurry up and die!
Why...
Why are you doing this?
We didn't do anything wrong!
So why?!
Mum! Mum!
Kuriyama-san...
It's all because of me.
Because I'm a monster.
You're wrong.
I should never have existed!
You're wrong!
What's wrong about it?
How can you say that?
I'm...
...from the clan of the Cursed Blood. That's why...
That's why I, and everyone else...
You're wrong!
Stay away from me!
Kuriyama-san! Don't go!
Don't leave me again!
I don't care who you are or what your past is!
Don't lie to me like that!
I'm not normal.
I'm...
...making you unhappy.
I'm not alive because I can't die.
Because... Because you're here,
I have a reason to live.
Because I love you.
No matter what might happen from here on out,
I'll protect you.
I promise.
I'm sorry, Mirai.
But because you were there with me, every day shone brightly.
It's because of you
that my life sparkled so brightly.
Sparkled?
That's right.
I sparkled.
Mirai...
Thank you. I'm so sorry.
Let's go.
All set.
Akkun...
How are things over there?
She's still unconscious.
She was in pretty deep, after all.
But don't worry. She'll come back to us.
Youmu or Spirit Warrior...
In the end, none of that really matters.
Nor does the question of who you are.
All that matters is to be close
to the ones you care about.
That's what I learned from watching you all.
Are you...
I've been observing this world from a long time ago as the gatekeeper between these worlds.
You mean...
If I were to say that, would you believe me?
Will it ever appear again?
Probably.
But don't worry.
As long as our love is stronger than the hatred within us,
we can keep it sealed away.
When I die...
When I die, please use my body to create a ring.
I will protect everything...
Everything...
...that girl holds dear.
I understand.
I promise.
Senpai...
Can't you die, Senpai?
Yeah... something like that.
How unpleasant.
Is saying "How unpleasant."
a habit of mine?
It is.
Kuriyama-san.
Senpai.
Will you...
Oh, sorry.
Umm...
Together.
Will you...
Will you...
...stay...
...stay...
...with me forever?
dareka o sagashiteta ki ga suru
I got the feeling I was searching for someone,
Wandering within a dream,
yume no naka o samayotte
But with you here now,
ima koko ni iru anata no me ga
watashi no kanashimi atatameru no
Your eyes warm my sorrow.
From the moment I realized I have someone I'm missing,
aitakatta hito ga iru to kigatsuita toki kara
I learned that I have the capacity to grow stronger!
tsuyoku narerutte koto ga wakatta yo
Snuggling up close to the scenery I'd always been waiting for,
zutto matte ita keshiki yorisoi nagara
Affection wells up within me…
itoshi sa ga komiageru soshite zutto
matteita keshiki hitori janai to
Then, within that scenery I'd been waiting for,
tashikame au mirai ga mieta sora
Was a sky in which I saw affirming futures, telling me I'm not alone.
Beyond the Boundary
The Future
The words that I send upon a clear wind,
kirei na kaze ni noseru kotoba
Wish to express how precious this is;
taisetsu da to ii takute
Here with you now, as you are,
ima koko ni iru anata to nara
I feel I can be more kind to the world.
sekai ni yasashiku nare sou na no
samishikute tsurai kokoro daki shimete agetai
I want to embrace your lonely, pained heart –
watashi tachi no kizuna wa kienai yo
Our bond will never fade!
itsumo itsu itsu made mo tomo ni ikiru to
Always, for forever more,
chikaitai kono basho de kawarazu ni
I want to vow, here in this place, that we'll live life together.
itsu itsu made mo onaji atsu sa no
Without change, for forever more,
ai de otagai wo zutto oikakeru
We'll pursue one another eternally with love of the same intensity,
(Always) Let's always… (Always) … go on living together;
(zutto) zutto (zutto) tomo ni ikite yukou
zutto ai no mama de
Always in the form of love…!
Always, for forever more,
itsumo itsu itsu made mo tomo ni ikiru to
chikaitai kono basho de
I want to vow, here in this place, that we'll live life together.
zutto matte ita keshiki yorisoi nagara
Snuggling up close to the scenery I'd always been waiting for,
itoshi sa ga komiageru soshite zutto
Affection wells up within me…
matte ita keshiki hitori janai to
Then, within that scenery I'd been waiting for,
tashikame au mirai ga mieta sora
Was a sky in which I saw affirming futures, telling me I'm not alone.
(Always) Let's always… (Always) … go on living together;
(zutto) zutto (zutto) tomo ni ikite yukou
zutto ai no mama de
Always in the form of love…!
Always, for forever more – for forever more… Ahh…
itsumo itsu itsu made mo itsu itsu made mo ah
ima koko ni iru anata no me ga suki
I love your eyes, as you're here with me now.
Morning.
Good morning.
Senpai!
I love you!
I love you, too.
And I love the Kuriyama-san who doesn't wear glasses, too.
Right.
Have you graduated from glasses?
Nope. I've brought lots of them with me today, of course.
How unpleasant!
