Is that the standard of your basketball club?
I think so.
Hey, are we going to continue this game?
Let's bet.
Bet? I think we've played enough.
You are much better than me.
The game will end as soon as I score.
I'm telling you,
there'll be a penalty if you lose.
(The Aquarian Age: The Movie)
That's too wicked!
Let's play again.
I don't like to bet.
Damn!
I heard that
a strange fellow wants to compete with you.
To bet with me, not to compete with me.
He came,
while you were absent, Shiba-senpai.
But you played very well.
You are the best among the first year. -Spare me that!
I hate to bet.
Are you okay?
Where did that guy go?
Forget it.
Shiba-senpai, let's check over there.
Okay.
Hello?
Nakaura-san.
Hello? Hello?
Nakaura-san.
Can you hear me? -Hello?
I can hear you. Where are you now?
I'm in the disco.
Wait!
I don't know where is this place.
That fellow?
Where did he go?
Where did Nakaura go?
What's the matter? Don't scare me.
What exactly is going on?
Tsukasa?
I'm worry about you.
I'm sorry for
causing you to worry for me.
Tsukasa, hold on!
Are you okay?
What exactly happened?
Tsukasa, hold on! Are you okay?
Tsukasa!
What happened?
This pain...
What exactly happened?
Hey, please wait!
I quit the bet.
No...
Hey,are you nearby
the train station last night?
So what? -What did you see?
What do you want to know? -Anything.
Who did you meet? And who did you see?
Tell me if you saw anything strange.
Nothing.
What will happen if I tell you?
Yesterday an alteration happened
in that disco.
You'd better not get involved in something strange.
Hey!
Please wait!
What? The incident has nothing to do with me.
I know. I know. That's not what I mean.
Are you having a premonition that something bad will happen?
Premonition?
Yes! I had a premonition that
soon you'll be involved in something big.
Suddenly I feel that in here.
I'm already involved in one.
My intuition is rather accurate.
Let's bet!
I'm not betting. As for the penalty game,
I can take part next time.
Be Careful
of the road ahead...
I had a premonition that soon you'll be involved in something big.
Blood?
It is still fresh.
No way.
Damn! Not now.
This is the hospital.
The ambulance sent you here.
Maybe you don't remember that.
You fainted in the tunnel.
But there's nothing wrong with your body.
What happened in there?
I don't know.
You need to go to the laboratory to go through some formalities.
This is my Card.
an affiliation of the Jounan Medical University
I'm a researcher in this hospital.
The professor at the research center requested that I bring you there.
A researcher? -On DNA.
This hospital is affiliated to the university.
While we were doing body checkup for you, our team
also analysed your DNA.
Why does the professor want to see me?
I'll just go straight to the point as I don't like beating around the bush.
It seems that
some of your DNA strands are unique.
Some black-colour finger nails
were found on the scene.
So they've started their operation?
What is the number of victims?
Adding up the victims as well as
those that went missing,
we lost 5 members
in Ichizhou and Ichime Hyakume.
In order to bring an end to this,
we must find them as soon as possible.
Any objection?
Naoya, do you have any plan?
Being the next generation of Ichizhou,,
don't you wish to inherit our clan?
Naoya is still a kid.
He can't understand the importance of this matter.
I don't wish to initiate a meaningless argument.
Don't hesitate!
Thay are not human beings but monsters.
If they are monsters,
we are monsters too.
Please come in.
Professor, Kusakabe-kun is here.
I'm sorry that I've requested for your presence out of the blue.
You must be very surprised.
I'm Tezuka, please come in.
Excuse me.
Thank you.
I suppose Ichiryuu-kun has told you that
the university hospital
is a distressing place.
The patients' data are compiled here
and distributed to other places.
We, the DNA team,
conducted
a casual search on you.
Is my DNA unique?
The so-called DNA
is like a blueprint of the human.
According to this blueprint,
the structure of a human body is decided.
As for you,
your blueprint
shows some very interesting data.
What is going on?
Can you remove your shirt?
My shirt?
Kaname-kun, until today,
have you experienced any searing pain on your back before?
Yes.
That's right.
That is because the blood that is flowing in your body
is inherited from the Black Feather clan.
Black Feather?
If you are a member of the clan,,
your DNA
Carries the Black Feather's.
The Black Feather?
I don't think so.
Now, you feel the searing pain on your back occassionally.
That pain is caused by
the growth of the feathers.
Now.
you feel the searing pain on your back occassionally.
That pain is caused by the growth of the feathers.
I don't believe you.
I don't remember anything like that.
If you can't remember, there is nothing I can do now..
When the feathers are growing,,
you will lapse into ecstacy.
At the same time, you'll also experience
a change of personality.
When you can gain control of youself,
the memory of feathers growing out of your body
will also become clearer.
Excuse me.
Kusakabe-kun!
Your DNA contains
the information of the Black Feather.
It's very unusual that you can't get the ball in from that position.
What are you thinking?
No. Nothing.
Yes! Where did you
go the other day?
You were injured nearby the disco.
Not only that man,,
but you disappeared too.
I searched a long time for you. -I'm sorry.
I haven't been well since then.
Forget about that.
That man was later
attacked by some other people.
I think I've seen him before.
He has appeared somewhere around here
also
some black feathers
and animal claws were found on the scene.
Animals with black feathers?
What's the matter with you?
I'm fine. I'm going to get a drink.
Black feathers.
Could it be that I was involved in that incident?
It can't be. I don't remember anything.
That incident is not in my memory.
Professor Tezuka is very surprised
to learn that you've contacted us.
What's the matter?
Are you going to cooperate with the professor in his research?
To be honest... I don't have the mood to be actively involved.
You don't have to be active.
This is not something that you can decide.
This is fate.
But getting to know the structure of your body
and your blueprint
is not something bad.
Nakaura-san.
Who is that child
that you are shielding?
He was injured
so I took Care of him.
We should not make a mistake.
But if we do,
we must embark on the right course again.
He seemed to have lost his memory.
He will bring us a lot of trouble
sooner or later.
Why do you say so?
We live in a different world.
Do you want to continue shielding
that child until the end?
Please drive him awway immediately.
It is a curse
to have Black Feather in your DNA.
Historically,
this kind of people were persecuted.
Tell me honestly,
have you heard of them before?
I've read of them in novels and comics.
This has happened before
during the Middle Ages in Europe.
Back then, devils
are actually members of the Black Feather clan.
Isn't that a fictional story?
Another force rose
in the Middle Ages Europe.
Their DNA was unique too?
In order to topple the Black Feather clan,
that force
fabricated rumours
that they fought for the righteous cause.
In that case, they actually defeated the devils?
Do you believe that devils do exist?
There were different kinds of legends
however most of them were only about power struggles.
The surviving members of the Blaack Feather clan,
waited a long time
for the opportunity to take revenge.
Am I the perpetrator
of that incident?
You had a very pleasant chat with Professor Tezuka.
We chatted about things that I'm not even aware of.
Apart from the force of the Black Feather,
we also chatted about other force with unique DNA.
There are many forces
with unique DNA.
The new forces in Japan,
and the old forces in the western world.
This is the beginning of a new era
with outstanding prophetic abilities
and the Black Feather.
Sooner or later,
these forces
will fight among themselves.
This is a world that is unknown to us.
Is this the place?
Not. It is in front.
I wish to go somewherere.
Really? Well, goodbye then.
What's the matter with you?
Nothing. Goodbye.
It's been a while.
Can I help you?
Err...
Does a boy about my age live here?
Excuse me, are you his friend? -No. We are not friends.
When we met the other day,
it seemed that he was pursued by someone.
I'm rather concerned... -Concern about what?
I'd like to ask how. is he doing?
I heard that he is injured.
Who told you that?
My friend.
Please go home.
It's not a good time to meet now..
Is he seriously injured?
What's the matter?
I didn't say anything.
How'd you know that?
Are you connected to that incident?
Wait...
You are still keeping that photo?
We are not related anymore.
Discard it!
You'd better not get involved in something strange.
Something that is even more strange will happen.
Why are you here?
How'd you know that?
The previous incident and now.,,
how'd you know that I'll be involved in something dangerous.
Didn't I told you?
Intuition.
I had a premonition that you'll be coming here.
Don't joke with me.
Can intuition achieve this?
This is the beginning of a new era
with outstanding prophetic abilities.
Could it be that you are...? -What's the matter with you?
No. Nothing.
Hey!
Hold on! Kaname!
Kaname!
Hey!
Bastard, you are finally awake!
This place is...?
My relative's house.
I'm living here for the time being.
It suits you
to live a refined life.
Quite the contrary.
Something strange
happened in my old life.
You look discontented
I'm involved in a meaningless feud
The previous incident in the disco club.
Later, my friend went missing.
This provoked a huge debate.
Some said this was an act of revenge.
Naoya, you are not taking part in that?
It's very silly.
But that's the tradition of the Ichizou.
Thay kept fighting because of this.
According to them, there is another world
behind this peaceful world.
Fights often happen between these two worlds.
In order to hide this from the outside world,
people keep hiding secrets from each other.
Do you find this unbelievable?
Quite.
Are you still pursuing the convicts now?
You know about convicts?
My intuition is sharp too.
You'll know it if you bring your feelings into play.
Could it be that you are...?
I heard that you are talking to someone.
I'm on the phone.
What's the matter? -Outsiders are not allowed in here.
This is the rule.
I told you
these people are parochial.
That's irritating.
What's the matter, you are awake?
I had a dream.
You sweat a lot.
The roof...
What is that?
It seems very
real in the dream.
Real?
Could it be that your dream
is connected to the part of your memory that is lost?
So it's true that
my presence here
will bring trouble to you,
Nakaura-san. -What nonsense are you talking about?
You may stay here.
What's the matter with you suddenly?
The other day,
I overheard the conversation
between you and the priest.
Don't take it seriously.
The priest is a strange man.
Okay, try to sit up.
What's the matter with you?
Your back was seriously injured before?
I'm sorry.
I've no recollection of that.
Is that so?
Your condition is not bad today.
Have encountered something wonderful?
You surprise me for coming here to pick me up.
If you have any discontent, voice that out to Professor Tezuka.
I'm only here to pick you up.
Maya-san,, can I ask you something?
Why did you embark on DNA research?
Because I like it.
I'm the descendant of one of the forces
which I told you the other day.
The man that we met the other day
while sending you home, do you know him?
His name is Shiba. -Shiba-senpai?
What is it with Shiba-senpai?
My surname was originally Shiba too.
But many arguments had happened because of me.
Consequently, our relationship is severed.
I wanted to know more about my family
so I took up DNA research.
Thank you for taking Care of me.
Indeed,
I'm a troublemaker.
I feel bad about that.
I heard that
the black feathers incident had occurred.
Members of another clan are investigating into this,
Accusing that you are the perpetrator.
I'll not ask you about the strange things that happened.
Anyhow... you have
lost your memory.
Please come in.
Professor.
Is that true? I'll be there immediately.
Let me introduce.
Kusakabe-kun, this is my assistant, Amamiya.
I'm Amamiya, pleased to meet you.
He became my assistant recently.
He is a much more accomplished researcher than me.
I'll make a movee first
Where are you going?
This is a good opportunity
to tell you that
the perpetrator of the last incident seems to know that already.
I'm about to question him.
I'll be awway for a short while. -Yes.
Nakaura-kun
Where do you plan to go?
You should know where we are going tonight.
Yes.
Are you ready?
What are you hiding from me,
Nakaura-kun?
I'm not hiding anything from you.
Can you swwear to God
If that is a lie,
you'll be punished by God.
Maya-san, you are not leaving today?
Seems like that.
My work is not complete yet.
In that case, I'll make a movee first
Take Care.
You did something that embarrass the clan again?
What are you talking about? -Stop pretending!
Why are you pictured together with this boy?
This will not guarantee our safety.
Gentlemen, please wait.
This is not Naoya's fault.
The Black Feather boy in that photo
is a trap.
Isn't that so?
What are you talking about? -You are the descendant of this clan.
Tell them that you've fallen into his trap,
and you'll be fine.
Why should I do that?
Naoya,
is it true that you were incited by that boy?
Say it now. that you are determined to eliminate the Black Feather!
If not, Calamities will befall us.
Is this a deal?
What's the matter with you, Naoya?
Answer me now!
You'll eliminate that Black Feather!
I'll give you one day to think.
We'll meet again tomorrow.
If you still haven't got an answer by then,
I'll deal with you accordingly.
Don't let me say this to you over and over again.
I told you that you are not allowed to contact her.
I'll not contact her.
It has ended
Maya seems to be missing.
Onesan!?
That phone Call?
Forget about it.
We have sever our relationship with her.
I saw. onesan
a few days ago.
Why didn't you tell me?
I warned you not to keep in touch with her.
She is my sister.
So I went to see her.
Where did you see her?
Who was with her at that time?
Kaname.
Tsukasa,
where are you?
I'm sorry for being late.
It seems that we've made a mistake about the perpetrator.
Made a mistake?
We thought that he is a member of the Black Feather clan.
Actually, it seems that the person involved
is from another clan with the same DNA.
The same DNA?
Similar to the Black Feather clan,,
they are a clan with feathers too.
However, they inherited the DNA of the angels.
Hence their feathers are not black in colour
but white.
He is in the room over there.
Can I meet him?
Yes.
He has been in this hospital before.
Has he been staying in this hospital all along?
It seems that he escaped recently.
Amamiya-kun knows more
about this.
Professor.
Something bad has happened. -She has gone missing?
She was here last night?
Yes,, I think so.
Have you contacted Ichiryuu's parents?
Yes, I have.
Could it be that
I did it unconsciously?
Kusakabe-kun, may I ask you something?
Were you in this hospital since last night?
Are you suspecting me?
How much do you remember about last night's incident?
I didn't do it!
I know. It's just that this...
Kusakabe-kun!
I cannot recall anything!
No matter how. hard I tried, I cannot recall anything!
Unquestionably,
he inherited that DNA.
He inherited that blood that Carries the DNA of the angels.
Ama-kun
You found a very precious material.
I learned this from you.
Really?
It seems that we've obtained some very interesting data
from our rival.
But it seems that there is no record of him at all.
If he has that sense of awareness,,
he'll have the unknown ability.
Maybe he'll
know how to utilise it.
Nakaura-san
is using me?
This matter...
Thay are ver cruel,
just like the devils.
Thay Carry the devils' blood.
It can't be.
Nakaura-san won't do that.
You still look the same.
Let's bet.
What's wrong with you suddenly?
Didn't you hate betting?
The first person to reach that windmill wins.
What is the penalty for the loser?
Whoever that looses...
I'll tell you the secret that
I've been hiding all these years.
Ready, go!
I won!
It'd be great if everything that happened is a dream.
When I wake up tomorrow.,,
everything that happened until now is just a dream,,
then I won't feel so bad.
As for the penalty,
the secret that I've been hiding... -Who Cares about the penalty?
I didn't perform
the last penalty.
This is fair and square,
isn't it?
At that moment, Naoya
understood everything.
He said that he understood everything.
It'd be great that when tomorrow comes, all that happened is only a dream.
At that ver moment,,
I thought it'd be better if that wasn't a dream.
Windmill.
Yes. This is the place.
Tsukasa.
so...
where do you live?
I'm going to the toilet.
What should I do?
I told you to eliminate the Black Feather.
If not, Calamities will befall us.
If the result is heads,
I'll return to the clan.
But,
if the result is tails...
Tsukasa?
Tsukasa, why must you run awway?
Excuse me,
where is the lab of
Ichiryuu Maya?
Go straight ahead and turn right, lab number 1075.
Thank you.
Tsukasa, wait! Tsukasa!
Tsukasa!
Why must you run awway?
I'm sorry.
But I do not wish to
increase your trouble, Nakaura-san.
You don't have to think so much.
Come over here.
What's the matter with you, Tsukasa?
Don't!
Naoya,
What's the matter with you?
I don't know.
Even if I don't fight with you, Naoya.
Others will do so.
This is a cycle.
Such a matter,
don't you wish to do it?
Can you predict
the presence of someone?
I'm sorry Naoya, you...
I'm too!
We are doing the same thing.
Here!
In this place!
This is a meaningless thing to do.
You...
I...
It happens naturally.
I did something ordinary,
I'm someone like this,
did I?
Onesan!
Onesan! Onesan! Are you okay?
Onesan!
Onesan, are you okay?
I...
am okay.
This... -Onesan.
This?
Onesan!
We become someone else.
Change our personalities.
Let's bet,
and see whether we can transform or not.
Are we
capable of doing so?
Which side are you betting on?
Tsukasa.
I remember now..
Why did
I run awway from here.
I've a premonition.
Damn!
The truth of the...
Black Feather.
What's the matter, Amoukun?
You look surprised.
That back..
You look very pale.
