Original subtitles

I had this experience during the summer of my first year of high school.

On that day I had fought with my parents and went to go stay at a friend's house late at night.

Hello? Ayako? Yeah.

Yeah, I'm really going. That's why I'm already in front of the phone booth.

What? You forgot?

Everything? What?

Why are you worrying? Nothing like that is going to happen.

Yeah, yeah goodbye. Alright.

I can't be seeing this... I can't be seeing this...

I can't be seeing this... I can't be seeing this... I can't be seeing this... I can't be seeing this... I can't be seeing this... I can't be seeing this...

Who are you?!

No.. no... no...

No!

After that I heard about it..

Some years ago it seems like a woman had died there in an accident.

True Tales Of Terror

Somewhere in Atsugi city, Kanagawa Predecture

The Hospital Ward Late At Night

A hospital.

Every single day within here there is a drama of life and death repeating.

Hurry!

Saori! Saori!

Saori! Saori! Hang in there!

Please, save Saori!

Leave it to us.

Please stay calm.

We're going to take her to the emergency room.

8:15AM, There was nothing we could do.

I've been a nurse for 15 years.

I have trained myself to be better than the average person at not letting my emotions show on my face but...

Anger, sadness, hopelessness.

Various emotions become stagnant within this hospital.

There are also experiences with no explanations here.

An accident?

No.

It's...

What is it? Calm down.

It's nothing.

I just got a little scared.

Nurses shouldn't be running through the hallways.

Those footsteps night at night could make patients nervous.

I'm sorry.

Yes? I'll go right away.

It's room 405.

Makari right? Very well I'll go.

Saori?

Earlier that child...

"Earlier" what?

She passed away.

When I tried asking the manager he said pediatrics was taking care of Saori.

What's wrong?

Kakami?

The IV drip will be over soon.

Let's help you move a bit. Alright.

Oh no, bedsores.

Kakami had been put in room 405 after he was let go. Oh no, bedsores.

Kakami had been put in room 405 after he was let go.

Just before he was about to start a new job, he was diagnosed with esophageal cancer.

He was given surgery,

The recovery after surgery was not satisfactory.

His hair was already starting to go white.

And after that.

Yeah?

-When I give an IV drop, I put a slip on the wall to notify others. Yeah?

-When I give an IV drop, I put a slip on the wall to notify others.

I'm sorry, but it's about Kakami in room 405.

-Yes? I'm sorry, but it's about Kakami in room 405.

I'm sorry, but it's about Kakami in room 405.

You're always helping him.

So I got this for everyone.

Well this thing is sorta...

It's got our feelings behind it so it's okay right? It's a protection charm.

We are so grateful to you all.

-We want to accept it however due to the rules we cannot take this. We are so grateful to you all.

-We want to accept it however due to the rules we cannot take this.

Are you ok?

Just a little right?

I see, does that feel nice?

Mom.

Mom, I got a job.

Well, congratulations.

We need to celebrate then.

Have to be careful because he has bed sores.

Yes Ma'am.

Manager?

You worked in pediatrics before right?

Yeah, what about it?

Ah, well it's nothing.

What is it?

Manager, there's some white hairs.

A few days later, Kakami fell into critical condition.

Kakami, where does it hurt?

Kakami, can you hear me?

Stay with me, Kakami.

Some time later...

Mr. Kakami?

You are saying when he was tossing and turning he was by himself,,,,,,?

Right sir.

Would a patient like that pull out his IV tube, walk to the window and jump out?

I apologize, I was careless.

No, our manager was taking care of him properly.

She really did do her best.

Well It's not necessarily that I'm blaming you but...

He wanted to.

Even if he wanted to... we really are a horrible hospital.

Well even it was hopeless, you did everything in your power right?

Good morning.

-Good morning. Good morning.

-Good morning.

It's been 1 week since Kakami's suicide.

I have a new patient in room 405.

Excuse me.

Good morning.

Yokoyama, where's your thermometer?

You can't go dropping that. Let's check your temperature.

I don't know you yet but thanks for taking care of me.

You're welcome. Did you sleep well last night?

Huh?

Did you sleep well?

I was woken up and wasn't able to sleep!

Who woke you up?

Well...

If anything happens push this please, alright?

Alright? You understand?

But Yokoyama seems to have become quite senile.

When admitted to a hospital sometimes a condition may progress more.

Watch out for signs of overeating.

Yes Ma'am.

What's wrong?

It's coming.

What's coming?

It's coming from there!

It's coming.

From over there!

That is just a mirror.

You're wrong it's coming from there

Please stay over here.

No, no, no, no!

From there, from there, it's coming from there!

No, no, no!

It's coming, no, it's coming, it's coming no, no, no!

-What's wrong? It's coming, no, it's coming, it's coming no, no, no!

It's coming, no, it's coming, it's coming no, no, no!

-Can you bring a newspaper? It's coming, no, it's coming, it's coming no, no, no!

It's coming, no, it's coming, it's coming no, no, no!

-A newspaper? Today's newspaper? It's coming, no, it's coming, it's coming no, no, no!

-A newspaper? Today's newspaper?

No, no, no, no!

-Please just head over here quickly. No, no, no, no!

No, no, no, no!

Yes Ma'm. No, no, no, no!

Yes Ma'm.

What is it with this mirror?

Don't say foolish things like that.

Yes Ma'am.

But he calmed down, thank goodness.

It seems that way.

What's wrong?

I'm coming now.

It's Fukurai again.

I'm heading out.

You shouldn't rip that up.

You're wrong, someone tore the newspaper and came out!

There's no way that could happen right?

R-Really it did!

He came out from there!

Who did this?

Hurry another newspaper.

Yes Ma'am.

Due to the difficulties it was decided to transfer Yokoyama to another room.

It's time to meet another new resident of room 405.

Excuse me.

Sasamori, I have your medicine for you.

Excuse me but...

Yes?

Why is there a newspaper there?

Oh that? It's nothing really.

Now, let me explain the medicine. 2 pills before eating.

Then every time after you eat.

If you feel pain please contact us immediately.

He wants to transfer rooms?

He said he can't sleep.

But wasn't it Sasamori himself who requested a private room because it's quieter?

If we listened to every single request they would just never end.

Yes, but he said something was coming out at night.

So it's the same as Yokoyama.

Drop it.

Sagawa has been stable since then.

Nothing particularly unusual.

Manager.

Manager.

Manager.

Saori?

Manager.

I have candy.

What's wrong?

Sorry.

Sasamori?

Sasamori?

Who are you?

Who are you?

Sasamori was moved to another room?

Yes.

Was it the same thing as Kawakami?

No way, quit it!

It's not surprising that someone would want to leave.

Well today is my day for patrol.

Thank you for your work.

Thank you for your work.

You dropped this.

Thanks.

I'm going to go on patrol.

Wait.

I'll go.

Kawakami?

Is it you Kawakami?

It's you right Kawakami?

Kawakami?

Kawakami...

I-I tried to save you.

Help me.

You are... already... dead!

Miyama.

Yes Ma'am?

You shouldn't run down the hallways right?

Sorry.

Thank you.

I wonder if it is ok to send a letter like this?

We were considerably lost.

However, I feel sad when I think about the feelings of Kawakami who was unable to rest in peace.

I would like to share this experience with you all.

I thought perhaps it is my duty.

Hospitals are sad places.

Not just for living people.

But also because sometimes we encounter the anger and sadness of the dead.

As long I'm a nurse, I'll be confronting these sorts of things.

Room 405 is currently used as a storage facility.

Of course the mirror was taken and destroyed.

I apologize.

Jeez, you should have come to me sooner.

It's just pointless with you.

At any rate I want this properly organized by this afternoon please.

Yes Ma'am.

Ah, here, here, it's your new business card.

It's fine, I got it.

Looking for tea?

Yes.

It's here.

Thanks.

I'll put it in.

Excuse me.

Kashiwagi was it?

Yes.

Where can I find the flyers for the Kawasaki model rooms?

Kashiwagi!

Coming!

Excuse me.

Thanks for your work.

Tamiya.

Yes?

You contacted Masaki on the phone right?

This part from Sakaguchi industries seems different than what we've had before.

It should be in the basement so get going and get it for us.

No way.

Kashiwagi.

Yes?

Show him the white room.

Yes Ma'am...

Kashiwagi.

Takaguchi.

Kashiwagi?

I'm here.

Something wrong?

I wonder if someone else is here with us.

Why?

Well just now someone...

Someone... was just here?

Yeah.

Um.. it's okay?

Well.. you didn't hear that strange sound?

Correct.

It's just earlier, I saw this woman...

Well... I thought it was just me.

Even when I was new here, it wasn't just that there.

There were a couple places in the company...

But I couldn't see them clearly.

There always felt like there was a presence, like a shadow over my shoulder.

So I understand what you said about the woman.

Have you told anyone else about this?

I told someone once but I wasn't able to get them to believe me.

The next day everyone knew.

After everyone found out, they started looking at me strangely.

Well that is... you know...

Kashiwagi you are really kind aren't you?

When someone is lost.

You try to be the nicest person possible and ask them if they need help right?

It's the same.

I suppose they wanted to be someone like that.

Oh my was I wrong?

Somehow, I feel a little better now.

From earlier?

If you hold onto this you'll be relaxed.

Oh no I'm late, well there's no helping it right?

I'm going to wash my hands then I'll head back.

Kashiwagi!

Kashiwagi!

Where is Kashiwagi?

She quit.

But why?

I have no clue.

Apparently the manager got a phone call last night at home saying she was quitting the company suddenly.

Tamiya.

Good morning.

Because of what hapened with her can you work overtime today?

Yes Ma'am.

Just what the heck happened to her?

At that time I didn't know the reason.

Thank you for your work.

But now that she was gone I...

I felt a vague sense of unease.

Good work.

Thanks.

Who's there?

Cleaning lady are you still not done clean-

Just what the heck happened to her?

I didn't know.

She had to have moved to another office.

Somewhere in Ome City, Tokyo

The Daytime Bell

Experienced by: Michitaka Tateyama The Daytime Bell

August 4th

Seriously? Its been 2 years.

Well, you know, my older brother didn't get a job until he was 26.

Tateyama it will surely be ok.

"Surely" what do you mean "surely"?

Did he deal with being right in the middle of the economic bubble?

The situation is completely different now.

But you know it's fine as long as you make it to the final interview right?

It's all the same if you make it and you still fail.

I wonder why.

Maybe you just aren't doing your best?

Or perhaps, like usual, you are forcing yourself too much.

Shut up.

2 people would be better huh?

After graduating, you got married and inherited from your family, I'm with my family too.

You didn't notice right away?

What should I do?

August 5th

A message has been left.

This is Shoji Sumikawa.

Unfortunately you were unsuccessful.

We aren't forcing you but...

Right now it's really competitive trying to get a job, don't push yourself too much, even if you search in Tokyo for jobs.

Right?

Mom and Dad are looking forward to you coming home.

Anyway please contact us at least once ok?

This is the Tele corporation.

Yes sir well.

E-Excuse me.

For some reason it sounded like it was getting even louder.

What are you saying? It's not like that!

Look, you're just like my brother.

So don't worry much right now.

You can't push yourself until your body breaks.

How about relaxing in the countryside for a little while?

It seems like you're very tired.

Is that so?

You.

You.

Why haven't you?

Why haven't you?

Why haven't you?

Even though you should have been able to see me.

Even though you should have been able to see me.

Even though-

In the end I investigated it.

I now understand that a boy had died here in an accident.

That was 13 years ago, on August 4th at 1:45pm.

The day we were passing through with our car was the same day and time.

After that I did not hear the boy's cries anymore on the phone.

But even so why did he choose me I wonder?

Why? I wonder why he had only called me.

Surely he only wanted me to know of his existence right?

Or perhaps...

Why?

It was a summer evening.

As always I was in charge of playing with the older students in the kindergarten class.

One precocious girl told me something.

Really?

Really.

Teacher can you make me into an airplane?

Of course.

At exactly 12 o'clock in the middle of the night.

If you holding a red comb in your mouth and standing in front of the mirror.

The face of the person you will marry.

Will appear vaguely on the other side of the mirror.

Teacher, Ms. Shouko?

So, it was just a coincidence that I was holding onto the red comb.

If I were to remember, I won't be able to stand there anymore.

Sorry, I surprised you right?

No, I'm fine.

Just before I wanted to meet up with you Ms. Shouko.

Really?

I see, I see.

Mi was my student.

Really? What would be fun?

At that time I was a kindergarten teacher.

I'm home.

Mom?

She's not here?

My mother's body is a little weak so she lives with my brother who goes to college.

-Ken? My mother's body is a little weak so she lives with my brother who goes to college.

My mother's body is a little weak so she lives with my brother who goes to college.

Kenji?

Sure is dirty huh?

The cabinet wasn't even closed.

So this is why he can't get a girlfriends.

Where did they go?

And old friend invited me out so I decided to go.

Kusatsu Onsen.

We'll come back tomorrow.

Onsen? I didn't hear about this at all.

It was very rare that Mom went out like that.

Well I'm going to stay tonight at my girlfriend's place.

Girlfriend? I didn't hear about any girlfriend...

This is from when I was in elementary school.

I made it for an assignment during summer break.

Why is it here? I was wondering where it was.

Wow, so nostolgic.

This is something that Kenji bought me for my birthday with all his pocket money.

Back then he was such a nice guy.

This is something I drew for Mom.

Behold.

I really gave her this sort of portrait.

Ah, graduation collection. My dream for the future is to become a bride.

Look.

I wanted to show this to Akiyama too.

I got to know Akiyama through a friend's introduction.

I even introduced him to my mom.

We were thinking of getting married.

The Summer Visitor

It's an accident! We need an ambulance!

Mori! Mori! We are here now!

Mori! Mori! Mori! Mori! Mori!

We need an ambulance! Mori!

Open up!

I thought I was just dreaming.

But that really happened to Akiyama.

Akiyama died in a freak accident.

He has already died.

I really loved him.

I wanted to remain with him forever.

Maybe... maybe if I could really see him floating in the opposite side of the mirror in the future we could still marry.

I can't think of anyone outside of Akiyama.

I wanted to meet him.

Even if it was within the mirror, just once more I wanted to meet him.

It's hard to stop thinking about him. But I'm not a child I really shouldn't be thinking like that.

It was Akiyama.

He should already be dead but he was on the other side of the mirror laughing..

My imagination.

A ghost. Ny imagination. A ghost.

Akiyama? Akiyama! You're there right?

You're there right? Are you not there?

Hey.

I'm not scared, that's why I'm not screaming.

About Mom's weak body, let's talk about it ok?

My younger brother has high blood pressure.

But the truth is he has a timid side. So...

If you are in the house acting restlessly here.

Maybe you can leave the other two alone?

Cause you died!

Akiyama you died in an accident!

Get out of here, get out of this house quickly.

I had forgotten something important.

At the time Akiyama appeared once again.

I thought it was in order to meet me.

With Akiyama?

Akiyama made a promise to Shouko to get married.

Then this happened... do you want any of this onsen manjuu?

I don't want it.

You should listen to your mother sometimes.

I bought an egg from the onsen too, look.

My blood pressure goes up after eating that kind of thing.

You think you understand everything.

Your mother, you know, she was really looking forward to getting to see you get married.

When you were little your Dad died and you were so troubled so...

That's why she wanted you to be really happy Shouko.

For me I was just cheering for big sis.

What are you saying? You just can't say anything properly.

Well that's...

It is unbelievable something like that happening.

No, no, no what were you two thinking talking like that? I'm totally ok.

I'm already over Akiyama.

You were thinking I was just acting strong huh?

You probably think I'm forcing myself to act so cheerful.

You're wrong, I'm telling you the truth now.

Last night he came out, Akiyama.

What do you think I did?

I drove him away.

For some reason I...

I've already bounced back.

I've gotten over it and already forgotten about Akiyama.

I have to forget right?

That's what you meant right?

Then I think Akiyama would be happy if I move on.

I still have fond memories of Akiyama in my heart.

That's why I'm ok.

Overcoming his death.

That's why you shouldn't worry.

Shouko you want to see him, maybe it would be good to even seen him in your dreams.

What are you saying?

I have over here..

Don't say you have overcome it.

What will you do if he really comes out?

Kenji.

What do you mean?

What do you mean?

Sorry!

I thought this offering buddha would be good.

Here you go.

Thank you.

You said you saw this child?

Mi.

Teacher.

Quit that.

But I wanted to talk with my teacher.

You met my big sis?

She's right there.

She's not over there.

What foolishness are you saying?

But...

You know, my big sis. I mean Ms. Shouko passed away in an accident.

She died.

I couldn't accept that reality right away.

I died.

In the same accident with Akiyama.

Then I'm here, why am I here?

Let's stop now.

If you keep worrying about my big sis....

Well you understand right?

You need to change your mindset.

So you went to a place you normally wouldn't go to, like a hot spring.

So simple minded.

For my big sis.

We have to be happy for my big sis.

It may seem cliche, but if you don't do that, my big sis won't be able to rest in peace.

I've already forgotten.

I wonder if she was happy.

I wonder if her life was happy.

Wearing the matching yukata that my mother made for me.

We used to play fireworks a lot when we were little.

My cowardly little brother was so scared of the mouse fireworks that he clung to me and cried.

Mother gave us watermelon.

I was happy that she cleaned the seeds out for us.

I have so many irreplaceable memories from living in this house.

I was happy because of you, Mom.

Well, I wonder if he will be able to rest in peace.

I remembered.

I had forgotten something important to me.

That's strange, where did it go?

Isn't it a bit much to take all of them?

Maybe you ate them yourself.

What are you saying?

Hey, do you think it was Shouko?

There's no way.

More importantly, I can't find my bike key.

You don't do anything just get out there and walk.

We can't get through. It seems like it's a pretty bad accident.

If he had left home as planned.

He would have been in the accident.

Big sis.

You still have a lot left to do in this world.

And that was the end of me.

The was the last memory of the world's summer for me.
