Sorry to keep you waiting.
You're pretty late.
I'm terribly sorry.
It took a bit of time to prepare a woman who suited your tastes.
Is she good?
The absolute best!
fuwari yoru wo kazoeteru
ふわり夜をかぞえてる
I've been carefully keeping track of the nights,
futari dake no himitsu no jumon
二人だけの秘密の呪文
it's a secret spell we keep between the two of us.
kowaresou na omoi nosete
壊れそうな思いのせて
Gather up all of your thoughts that are on the verge of breaking,
tonaeteku
唱えてく
and chant them out loud.
hora fuan ha itami no naka
ほら 不安は痛みの中
Watch carefully, anxiety lies amidst the pain,
hora shizuka ni tomoru ibuki
ほら 静かに灯る息吹
watch carefully, as our breaths softly change to flame.
#09 「Stage for Disaster」
After you...
Oh my...
If I put just a bit more oil on you, you'll taste delicious.
The smell of dogs... the smell of beasts!
This softness within my hands, possessed only by an untouched fruit.
I'll leave you to it then...
Wait!
What about your money?
You always want payment in advance.
Ah, that's right! I'd forgotten.
Forget?
You? About money?
Rikiga. Just what are you planning?
Cut it out already, you shithead!
Damn! I can't keep this up!
What the hell is she?
When they're this young, it hardly matters whether it's a girl or boy.
Stop prattling on, you drunk, old man!
Why didn't you just do things as planned?
I'm going to ground you all up and feed you to the dogs, so say your prayers.
Now, I'll have you explain yourselves.
Why not stick around for a while longer?
I'll show you something so much fun it'll melt you whole.
Why didn't you come out sooner?!
I forgot my lines, so I changed the script a bit.
Don't give me that crap!
You swindling, third rate actor!
You're sly like a fox and more shameless than a pig!
Stop barking.
To have your neck licked by a high official of No. 6...
You've had a priceless experience tonight!
Shut up! I'm never trusting you again, you got it?!
I hope a dog's flea sucks your blood till you're bone dry!
So, what are we doing with him?
I wonder... the fun has only just begun.
I'm sorry... we shouldn't have done that.
I'm sorry... Dogloan.
Idiot... I hate you all.
It... it was terrible, okay?
I was holding back from screaming, "Why won't you come out?!"
I was at my absolute limit, okay?
I really am sorry...
We won't pull you into this any further.
Should I tell Rat for you?
Are you... are you a...
Hey!
He's saying he'll tell us all kinds of things.
The security system is more elaborate than I thought.
Just how can we manage to sneak into the correctional facility?
By the way, what was that thing he was saying about "Cleaning Duty",
that's carried out before The Holy Day?
He's really taken a liking to you, hasn't he?
Rat!
You don't need to know about that yet.
Just make sure you drill that map into your head.
Dogloan
Then it's really just as Shion said.
Yeah... infiltration will be impossible.
But can we really trust this information?
Hey, he's a high official of the Sanitation Bureau.
Whether we believe him or not, we're still at a stalemate.
There is one other way.
Huh?
There was one other thing he told us about, right?
Wait, you don't mean-
We have no other option.
That's even less of a possibility.
If you're looking to die, just die already.
I'm not going to risk it. I'll keep living.
Even if you all rush to your deaths, I'll keep living here with the dogs.
No one's telling you to go.
Listen carefully to what I'm about to say.
Wait right there! What about Shion?
When the time comes, I don't know if we'll be able to stick together.
It will depend on our luck at the time.
Welcome home!
Thanks.
Rat, do summers get very hot here?
What about summer?
Well, we're underground, so I figured it would stay cool,
and the humidity isn't very high,
so I thought it would be pretty easy living down here.
It's probably better than Dogloan's hotel, at least.
But what do you use for a stove?
Huh?
You can't use the stove during the summer, right?
How do you prepare your meals?
Ah, that's it! You just have to use it outside!
But if it rains, that'd be a real pain, wouldn't it?
Shion.
Huh?
You plan to be here in the summer?
Rather, do you think you'll be allowed to?
If you don't chase me out, of course!
In a place like this, where you don't know what will happen the next day,
I've never really thought that far into the future.
Summer is just around the corner!
Before it gets here, I just have to rescue Safu,
create a serum for the parasitic wasps,
break down the division between No. 6 and West Block, and go on living here,
with my mother, Safu, and you.
That's quite the fantasy!
Don't laugh! I'm serious!
You met with Dogloan and Rikiga-san today, didn't you?
Does the fact that you've told me nothing mean that the plan hasn't taken form yet?
I get it. I'll be waiting, believing in you.
Aunty!
Riri!
Look what I got!
Isn't it nice?! I'm so excited for tomorrow!
What's wrong? It's tomorrow! The Holy Day!
Ah, you're right. Tomorrow...
Rat... you were writing letters to my mother before...
The Holy Day is tomorrow.
You must have finalised the plan you were forming with Rikiga-san and Dogloan by now...
Shion...
Eve! What are you doing in a place like this?
Manager! It's been quite a while!
I've been searching for you this whole time!
Why haven't you come to the theatre?
I've been getting strung up by your fans in their desperation!
It's been terrible!
Manhunters!
Manhunters?
The aforementioned "Cleaning Duty".
Damn...
This way!
But...
Just what do you think you can do?
I may be able to save its life.
Leave it be. There's nothing you can do.
Get it back safely to Dogloan's place.
Rat!
If anyone resists, we will show no mercy!
I repeat,
if anyone resists, we will show no mercy!
I'm sorry... it's my fault we...
No. The plan was to get caught from the very beginning.
From here, you'll all be taken to the correctional facility.
Board the truck you are directed to.
There was no other way for us to reach Sector 1, where Safu is being kept.
Youmin...
Have you given it any thought?
Has something happened to Shion?
Yes. He's been victimised by No. 6 yet again.
That's not what I mean... he's planning something!
He's merely trying to rise up.
You remember the series of mysterious deaths that I told you about,
I found out what happens to the witnesses after each incident.
It seems that all of them are taken to the correctional facility and are either experimented on or killed.
Also, you know of the Twilight House, I'm sure.
On the outside, it seems to be a hospice,
but in actuality, it's a place of execution.
A place where the old people of society who have lost their purpose are cast to oblivion.
Why... are you telling me these things?
I plan to send the following message out into the network.
"My friends, rise up!"
"Now is the time to raise the flag of revolt against No. 6!"
Simply that.
Youmin, you...
Karan. I expect that you understand well enough.
All that's needed is one drop, one push,
and the dam that is No. 6 will come crumbling apart.
The hideous heart of this city will be exposed to the broad daylight!
Oh, I can see it now!
The image of the city's denizens, obedient up until now,
heading toward the city's rotten heart,
harbouring anger, hate, and frothing at the mouth!
Youmin... you're scaring me...
You're just like those people...
Those people?
Those people who made No. 6.
You have the exact same eyes.
You were involved with them?
I misjudged you.
Shion!
...or not.
I'll reunite you, without fail.
Atop a far-off mountain,
The snow melts, becomes a flow,
And is stained green by a forest of beech trees.
At this moment, the village is covered in flowers,
And maidens more beautiful than the flowers themselves,
Take oath to their love amongst the forest of beeches.
Oh, young ones,
Wet your feet in the green water,
Then spring forth, like the deer.
Before the flowers bloom and fall,
Place your lips upon the hair of those maidens.
It's been a while since I've sung that one.
You're amazing, you know?
I'm just trying to forget my suffering, for at least a moment.
A song can't actually save anyone.
Shion.
Safu.
Who is it?
Me.
Who? Who are you?
I am Eriulias.
It's finished! She's finally awakened!
With this, No. 6 will...
Wait a second... what's with these numbers?
They don't make any sense. What on Earth is happening?
What you see from here on out may change you.
I may even come to know...
...that I've never understood a thing about you.
But I don't want you to change.
I want you to stay the Shion I know.
What do you mean?
Do you know what's going to happen there?
Ah... Rat!
kizutsuita toki ha
When I'm hurt,
傷ついたときは
sotto tsutsumikondekuretara ureshii
そっと包みこんでくれたらうれしい
just hold me gently in your arms.
koronde tatenai toki ha
転んで立てないときは
And if I've fallen and I can't get up,
sukoshi no yuuki wo kudasai
少しの勇気をください
give me a bit of your courage.
omoi ha zutto todokanai mama
思いはずっと届かないまま
My thoughts are never heard,
kyou mo tsumetai machi de hitori
今日も冷たい街でひとり
even today, as I wander alone through this cold city.
koko ga dokokamo omoidasenai
ココが何処かも思い出せない
I don't even remember where this place is.
owaranai yoru ni negai ha hitotsu
終わらない夜に願いはひとつ
In the endless night, I have but one wish,
"hoshi no nai sora ni kagayaku hikari wo"
"星のない空に輝く光を"
"That shining light in the starless sky."
modorenai basho ni suteta mono de sae
戻れない場所に捨てたものでさえ
Even the things we've left behind in places we can never return,
umarekawatte ashita wo kitto terashitekureru
生まれ変わって明日をきっと照らしてくれる
will be reborn and illuminate our tomorrow.
I'm scared...
...there's something there!
This is... Hell...
I might be doing exactly what she wants...
The people of No. 6 are human, just like us, huh?
It's exactly what you'd expect from Shion though.
Even when he's in danger... the guy's a real angel.
Everything I wish for... Shion...
I can hear it clearly. She's leading us to her.
Is he smiling?
How can he smile? Shion, you...
「What Lies in the Abyss」
How dare you... do that to Rat...
Shion!
