Since ancient times,
the insecurity of humankind have repeatedly caused...
a history of conflict
Beneath the surface lies a secret battlefield for world domination.
There, a dark power exists...
the
is about to begin...
Your whispers...
Kamikurata
Kamikurata, stand up!
Yes, Sir!
I have a question for you.
What is the definition of a 'pitiable person'? Answer!
Um.. Someone like you, Sir?
Kamikurata!
Enough!
For tomorrow, read pages 40 through 54 of Modern History.
Sit down!
No way...
Quiet down!
Now, let's pick it up on the following page.
Aquarian Age
Itoshisade afureru mirai wo mitsuketame
So you found a future overflowing with Love
dakia atta mamade chiisaku waratta
you smiled as we embraced
uchiyuseru shizukana kotoba no nukumori wa
the warmth of close, gentle words
sonote ni todoitte yagatte imi wo motsu
will eventually bare meaning once they reach your hand
kawarazu ni hunbari de
Constantly with perseverance
hoka ni nani mo iranai no
I don't need anything else
tada hitotsu no chikai dake ga
with only one vow
tsuyoku nandomo nandomo
Vigorously, over and over
kurikaeshite eien ni suru
repeat it and make it into forever
Preemptive Dark Offering
You don't have much time left.
Do you want to get a job?
Or perhaps go to college?
You need to seriously think about this.
I have been seriously thinkin' about it...
'Thinking'...
..Thinking about it.
Then let me hear what you have been seriously thinking about.
Kamikurata...
Yes.
Don't you feel that your parents are just being generous giving you a job at their store?
Haven't you considered the consequences of lack off progress and being unable to enter college?
Maybe... but...
'Maybe I have', but...
Maybe I have, but...
But what?
It's not that I haven't decided yet...
..just that I cannot say it.
Your parents don't oppose you?
You may leave now.
Um...
Don't waste your time away without seriously thinking about it.
When you are ready to discuss it, be sure to talk to your teacher.
Is that all?
Do you want to listen to more?
Well, not really...
You're looking rather guilty.
Yoko!?
I bet you're thinking dirty thoughts...
I wouldn't know about that...
Then you're paging dirty magazines...
It's nothing like that.
You had a counselling meeting today, right?
How did it go?
Oh, the teacher really didn't know anything about my being on the radio.
You've only been broadcast once, right?
It didn't look like any of the guys in class believed me either.
It's a bit annoying.
Umm... Kyota..
About that time...
I'm sorry...
Nah.. it didn't really bother me.
Besides, there was something I wanted to talk to you about...
Good morning, Mr. Kamikurata.
G-good morning.
How do you do, Ms. Yukimura.
It's about time we get going.
Are you going somewhere?
Ryusei and Morino Kanae are performing at a joint concert.
Do you want to come too, Yoko?
Sorry, I can't.
I...
Let's go back.
When is Ryusei performing?
Very soon.
Ms. Kanae...
Eh? Morinoi Kanae?
Wow! She's the real thing!
Hey, Kyota! You look great!
You know each other?
Ah.. just a bit.
Did you already perform?
Yeah, it's already over.
It was incredibly rousing!
I kind of wanted to see it...
Thank you very much for helping me out that time.
There's no need to thank me.
Mr. Kamikurata Kyota,
..that girl from last time, she didn't come with you today?
N-no...
I see... that's too bad.
Ms. Yukimura, it's been a while.
You're still as exquisite as ever.
Well, if it isn't IJF's Mr. Abuto.
For Ms. Yukimura to remember a lowly person like myself is a great honor.
Lowly, you say? I thought you were doing good.
That's very kind of you.
Nice newcomers you have discovered!
Yes, fortunately.
Behave yourself and don't act jelaously, Kanae.
No problem.
I won't loose to anyone.
What?
Hey, don't be rude!
Ms. Kanae, you've reached No.1 in the charts, right?
Congratulations.
Thank you very much.
However, tonight's show was but an impromptu performance...
..we've got no other scheduled shows for the moment, and Kanae still has a long way to go.
Indeed, and I'd recommend jobs with easy money.
Hmph... So I am not really worthy, am I?
You're so touchy, ms. Kanae.
I am terribly sorry about this.
She must not be feeling too well today.
Kanae, apologize to Ms. Yukimura.
No!!!
That was close...
Is everyone alright?
Must've been a short circuit or something...
Hey, Kyota. Are you hurt?
Kyota!
Eh? Ah ... sorry.
Whaddaya mean 'sorry'?
Are you alright or not?
Yeah.
Well, everyone seems to be fine.
It's about time for us to take our leave.
Oh? Leaving already?
There were so many more things I wanted to talk about.
I am sure you'll get a chance next time.
Really?
Let's go, Kanae.
Such an insignificant thing...
Your song won't go far.
Perhaps it would sound better if I sang it...
Look carefully.
That is what you are striving for.
Encore!
Nice performance.
Good job!
I'll definitely surpass your voice.
Well, work hard then...
Damn...

W'zup!?
Good morning.
So...
Well, how have you been lately?
So-so, I guess...
That's an old lady's answer.
..to an old man's question, you know.
I guess.
Are you busy?
Y-yeah! Being under Misato's wings, we have to practise a lot more.
Shingo was ready to cry.
What are you doing about school?
I'm not sure. Well, what happens, happens.
That's what I like about you, Kyota
You finally smile...
Eh?
You've been acting strange, Yoko.
R-really?
If you have problems troubling you, just let them out!
I'll listen to anything!
Thank you.
But It's okay... since I have to figure this one out by myself.
I see...
Besides...
..I've already decided.
I don't think it's a good idea for us seeing each other anymore.
For the sake of becoming adults...
I get it!
It's hard for you right now, isn't it Yoko?
You really must have a lot of things on your mind.
I understand. You just don't want to worry me.
So that's how it is...
Right?
W-what?
Kyota, you...
That's what I like about you, Kyota.
What are you talking about?
What's that nonsense!?
That's not it.
I'm saying it's a good thing.
Hey...
It's been a while since I heard your song.
Yeah, but we can take care of that
This will be the last time...
Wait a moment!
Since it's been a while, we should do this properly!
I'll call Shingo and Jun.
The band will get together and play for you only.
The two of them will be happy to come, I believe.
Such a lonely place, huh?
The place is unimportant, how we play is not.
You sound so wise, but that's how it is though.
After all, this is for Yoko's eyes only.
Take a seat over there.
Okay.
Let's do it!
kokoro tadautsusu hikari
Light that simply reflects one's heart.
konnani taiyori nai nante
that it would be this unreliable
shinjitai owaranai
I want to believe it doens't end
What the..?
Where did they come from?
What's wrong? Keep playing!
Oh, well an audience is an audience.
Let's do it, Kyota!
kokoro tadautsusu hikari
Light that simply reflects one's heart.

Kyota!!

I want to believe it doesn't end
You, go away!
Don't go near Kyota!
He doesn't belong to you!
You want to fight over it?
honto no jibun
my true self
Fine by me!
tsunagetai ashita no sora
I want to reach for tomorrow's skies
I won't let you have Kyota!
Me?
Kyota is mine!
No, he's mine!
Hurry up and get away from Kyota!
The same goes for you!
Why can't you understand?
What are they?
Why am I..?
What's happening?
Cut it out...
Stop this...
Stop it!!!
Kyota...
What are you doing?
Yoko...
De..

I can't find the color of the expanded dream
sore sore ni utsushidasu mirai wa
each and every future it reflects
kiskeki wo inotte
I pray for a miracle to happen
yakusoku no sono toki wo tenisurumade
until I grasp the promised moment
kono omoi fukaku mitsumetai
I would like to look deep upon this feeling
Whispers of evil and madness...
Necessity and coincidence...
The birth of a new power...
That sign is...
..a sorrowful cry from the earth.
Within the mirror...
..a slumbering me.
