Original subtitles

If you're not going to kill me, say that you love me once more!

Hikari!

That's... dirty.

Perhaps this is the beginning for you two.

Well, leave no regrets.

You guys have very little time left.

Leaving each other with eternally wounded hearts might not be a bad thing.

Well, we've taken all sorts of twists and turns but this long short story ends today.

Thanks for watching up until now!

So I might change once more.

I'm sorry, Hikari.

I was scared too.

Meeting like we did...

...and feeling like someone was rummaging through my heart.

You were my ideal person, which made it even worse...

It's too late... to do anything about that.

But... you're the one who shaped my heart,.

so please take some responsibility.

R-Responsibility?

I too wish to protect this world.

Final Episode

The Song of My Heart

I don't want to destroy it!

Right!

Stop right this instant!

Akari-sama...

What are you...?

I am the will that wishes for the continued existence of this world.

I beg you!

Cease destruction of this world!

I see...

I see now.

However Akari-sama,.

all I can do is carry out the duty assigned to me.

At this point, brute force is the only way to stop this.

Jennifer-sama, what are you...?

Isn't that obvious?

If you're going to swallow poison, you might as well swallow the dish too.

This is bad... Takeru, get back!

Why, Hikari?

What's with these red butterflies?

Things without a shape were given that temporary one.

What?

Shards of life that have yet to be born into this world, and which may or may never be in the future.

A container is needed to scatter such things around the world.

The future is what's important to us.

Whether things go as they're supposed to or not, disappearing is natural.

Discarding old shells and acquiring new bodies...

Well there's a simple story...

We're old already?

Getting rid of old things doesn't bother you?

Choosing something means getting rid of something else.

My mission is to pick a path and push ahead in spite of that.

Do you understand, Takeru?

Me?

Well,.

I... wanted to expand my uncle's business.

I wanted to ride a better bike.

I wanted to be the guy who could protect you.

Are you saying that's the same thing?

Is that a bad thing?

But I already know...

...as a person with a heart.

There's still so much that I don't know but...

Or rather, because of that, this world became essential to me.

Even when we first met, we didn't find you and Ryou.

You two found us.

You two made it possible for the impossible to exist in this world.

That's...

Ryou and I having such special powers...

No, not powers.

I saw everything in your heart back then.

Yes, the heart.

The feelings people have that give shape to wishes.

Takeru wished for change and Ryou wished for stability.

That's the only difference.

Are you going?

Yes, I have to...

I can't just leave all the pain to my sister.

If you go, you won't be able to come back.

The time for me to perform my duty has come.

I've been waiting for this moment all this time,.

but I don't want to leave this place.

I want to stay with Ryou, Kimi, and everyone else.

Let's go together.

I'll go with you,.

so don't worry.

Thank you.

But that's a lie.

Akari?

You can't choose me over this world.

Because you're kind, right?

Yes.

If I abandon the things I love, I'd be just like the parents who abandoned me.

But,.

if I choose this world, you'll...

It's all right.

I have my sister.

If I took you away from Kimi and everyone else, they'd all be sad.

But you're the one I liked the most because you named me.

Hey, it's impossible to come to hate the one who named you, right?

Akari.

We're family, so don't.

Family... is nice.

The truth behind the large extinction will remain a mystery, so the first theory would probably take it but...

How am I supposed to explain something like this?

What's that?

What is that... thing?

That's Anastatious.

It's attempting to give birth to the shards of life that'll create the next world.

Get back, you two!

Akari?

It's my duty to stop them.

Please, allow me to do it.

Sis?

Please lend us your powers, Akari.

Together then...

Hey, Kuon.

Kuon, the key to closing the doors of destruction!

Please open a path!

I will protect Hikari.

I'll protect this world, which Hikari loves!

This match is over.

Akari!

Takeru...

Mari.

Hikari.

Where is Takeru?

This way.

Please follow me.

Where?

Where are we going?

Is Takeru there?

Please come here and pray.

For what?

What should I pray for?

Mari!

Ah, there she is!

Hey, where are you going?

She might have found Takeru!

Ryou!

Where is Takeru?

Hikari said here...

Takeru is probably...

No way...

It can't be!

But Hikari told you here, right?

Yes. She also told me to pray.

But what am I supposed to pray for?

Isn't that obvious?

Look, they all came.

Brother!

Kimi, why are you...?

I was so scared!

If Akari hadn't been with me all this time...

I was scared to death!

Akari was?

Yeah, since...

Huh?

Where's Akari?

She was with me all this time.

Where... is this?

What happened to me?

Let's go, sis.

Yes.

Go... where?

We don't know yet.

But these things need a new place to live in.

Besides, we don't have a body to return to anymore.

I see.

Then I should also...

Don't.

They're all waiting down there for you to return.

But, I also don't...

Don't worry.

This time, my heart will give you a body.

The heart that you gave me.

But, just a little longer...

Just a little longer!

I haven't done anything for Hikari yet!

Snow in the winter.

Cherry blossoms in spring.

Those things are... a given, huh?

I'm happy that such wonderful things can be taken for granted.

Honestly, I still don't know if this is a good world or not.

But that might not be important.

I like your bright and gentle side but your other side is still you.

Just like those powers I have.

I want to change but I don't know what to do...

There's a place I'd like you to take me to.

Where do you think it is?

A place you want to go to...

Are you sure?

A place like this?

Yes.

It's the first time I ever had a place to return to.

Wait for me please!

Hikari?

Oh, my bike!

Please be careful.

Sure thing.

Have a safe trip!

Is this also a given?

Y-Yeah...

I couldn't do anything special for you after all...

I wanted to hold you tight and give you happiness.

Neither of us were any good at this.

But that's no longer true.

I know that I love you.

That I can believe in the part of me that does.

What about you?

I love you too.

Perhaps this was all predestined.

Someday, I'll return here to everyone and everything once more.

I don't know when that'll be, but definitely...

Are you going, Hikari?

It's okay.

I won't ever say that I'm lonely again.

But in return, please keep your eyes on me forever.

Hikari!

Takeru.

Are you really Takeru?

We were so surprised!

Right when the sky and the ground lit up, we saw you lying there.

Yup.

And here I thought it must've been the third girl.

Idiot.

Oh, that's right.

I came back.

Takeru, do you know?

Do you know who I am?

Was Mari... this ugly?

Don't say that!

Geez...

I was worried...

I'm more worried about you.

Well, he seems fine.

- What a surprise...

Hey, what happened to Takeru?

He's naked too...

Kimi, do you want to meet mom and dad?

What?

Why this all of a sudden?

Do you?

What a weird question...

We can't since they're dead...

That's not true.

Mom and dad are alive somewhere.

What?

Why?

Why?!

I'm sorry, Kimi. I'd given up.

I figured it wouldn't help to look for them.

So...

Why?

Why did you hide such an important thing from me?

Of course I'd want to see them!

Akari said the same thing.

I'm such a stupid brother.

I still wonder if all that was true...

What?

That Hikari and Akari came from space.

Yeah, I doubt they're just two girls who ran away from home.

Hikari, aren't you lonely with just Akari?

Just the two of you...

Huh?

Are you awake, Jennifer-sama?

What happened? This...

You brute.

Getting you back here safely... You should at least say thanks!

Really... humans are such strange lifeforms.

We're simple.

We want to decide things for ourselves.

That's all.

Hey, is this the end?

Perhaps it's the beginning of a new era.

You humans can test the future without us interfering.

Aren't you overestimating us?

Well, that I don't know.

I'll probably get to see the results the next time I wake up.

I see.

Hey, don't you have one too?

That thing called a heart.

Well, I wonder...

N i s h i n o

B i k e D e l i v e r y

Takeru, good morning!

Oh, Kimi.

You seem really happy.

Something good happen?

Yup.

We're going to go look for mom and dad now.

We're not sure where to look though.

Ryou...

But, as long as they're around somewhere, we'll eventually find them, right?

Sounds like it might take a while.

Hey! I'm going to leave you here, stupid brother!

I won't share the snacks with you then!

That's dirty!

She might look okay but she still cried a lot...

...over Akari's disappearance.

I hope you find them.

Yeah.

How far should we go today?

You decide!

I'm heading out!

Mari, you're going to be late.

Hop on!

No thanks.

Hey, that bike belongs to the store!

I got permission from Uncle.

Anyway, I'm fine. I'm not getting on.

Go on ahead.

Fine.

Make sure you fill up the gas when you get back!

Things won't go back to the way they were that easily!

Everything's back to normal.

She's so stubborn.

Geez!

Hey... is Mari serious?

Who knows?

She might forget in a few years.

Is that possible?!

That's so...

Good morning.

Temporary school this way

Hey.

Um, where's Hikari?

Hikari

I wanted to give this to her.

I see...

Hey, Takemoto.

Will Hikari come back?

Yes.

Hikari will be back... someday.

Morning, Takeru.

We can see it so clearly today, too.

Yup.

From that day on, the sky gained another star.

I always find myself looking at that star, which is visible even in the middle of the day.

As long as it shines, I won't ever forget Hikari.

As long as that eternally unreachable light shines.

ari no mama ni ai wo misereba ii

Just show me what you really love...

ari no mama ni yume wo tsutaereba ii

Just show me what you truly dream of...

kotoba wo sagasu yori shinjiru kimochi

Don't search for words; believe in yourself.

It's why our hearts connected.

kimi wo kimi wo shitte sekai wa kirameite

Knowing you makes the world a brighter place.

hitoribochi ja nai hoshitachi no yobikake

The stars insist that you're not alone.

Meeting you made my birth possible.

The promise we share removes the need for tears.

The End
