Eventually everyone...
dies.
No matter how much hope they may be filled with,
or overflowing with happiness they may be,
the grim reapers of fate
take our loved ones away.
And...
unfortunately I am the only one...
who can see these grim reapers.

Kitajoji
High School
Thanks so much.
Don't mention it.
Your school was on my way.
Oh, Makoto!
Good morning!
Cut it out.
Well then, Hazuki...
I was serious, so please think about it.
Okay.
You're not very lively today, are you, Makoto?
No, it's just you're doing too well.
Oh, the reminds me, your text came rather late.
Oh, that...
I slept in a bit.
We saw you, Hazuki!
With that hot university guy from the English Study Society!
Oh, yeah, we had a morning study session.
Aw, what a beautiful couple!
I wish he drove me to school.
The man from the West stopped suddenly and released his arm.
"You are not Jimmy Wells," he snapped.
All right. Very good.
That's the English Club for you.
By the way, Horiuchi,
don't you have something to say to everyone?
Huh?
Don't act surprised.
You've finally been chosen to represent Japan.
You'll be going to NASA.
Wow, that's incredible!
If it's bishop to 2b,
king takes bishop.
If it's bishop to 3c...
Why is that guy here?
Makoto?
Whoa.
Hey, don't run in the hallway!
Horiuchi, the papers just arrived! The ones from NASA!
All right.
Wasn't that a person?
We've known each other for a while, haven't we?
H-He spoke.
You were staring me down pretty good this morning, weren't you?
You're a grim reaper, right?
And what'll you do if I am?
Fight?
No way.
There's nothing I can do about it anyway.
It doesn't matter if I try.
Nobody would listen.
I'd frighten people.
It's only natural.
If I tell people I can see grim reapers,
they'll just think I'm crazy.
So what?
What would you do if you couldn't see me?
Well, since there's no chance of that happening, it's not like there's anything I can do.
That's smart.
There are those that would defy their fate in this world.
You're here
for me, right?
Nope.
I'm here for a fate other than yours.
Another fate?
You mean...
It looks like he can talk to us.
Yeah, seems that way.
Is he a candidate?
Watch him.
Understood.
Don't do anything you shouldn't.
I said I wouldn't.
Fate or...
Make sure you explain it all to your parents, okay?
Yes, sir.
You already have our recommendation,
so all there's left to do now is to keep plugging away.
Yes, sir.
I'll do my best.
Well then,
turn off the lights when you're done.
You're amazing, Hazuki.
Your dreams are coming true.
Makoto.
You know, another dream of mine is about to come true too.
You...
Is it really okay that we're skipping school?
Hm?
I wanted to try it once.
This feels great!
Hey!
What?
We used to hold hands all the time.
When was that?
Before words like "boy" and "girl" got in the way.
Wow!
Did you really make this yourself?
Yeah.
Kid-ding.
My mother did.
Of course.
It really has been a long time since I've had a home-cooked meal though.
I'm glad then.
You're always just eating junk from the convenience store,
so I've been worried.
Thanks for the food.
It looks like the cherry blossoms'll be blooming soon.
Um...
I'll make something for you myself next time,
so let's watch the cherry blossoms together then.
Yeah, sure.
I leave it in your hands, Mom.
So...
there's something you want to talk about, right?
Yeah.
You don't need to push yourself.
You have the habit of driving yourself into a corner.
Okay.
Um...
What would you do if you were wasting everyone's time?
Nothing.
That'd just be the way it is.
It'd probably feel normal,
right?
Yeah.
You know...
he asked me to go out with him when I graduate,
and said we should happily work towards our futures together.
I'd like to thank him, but I don't have the time to be thinking about those things now.
Wha...
Makoto?
Makoto!
Huh?
Oh, um...
Oh!
Oh no, I forgot I had tutoring today.
I have to run.
See you later, Makoto.
Sorry for saying such strange things.
All right, Dad.
Make sure you get something to eat, okay?
Bye.
That guy...
Forget that...
Those guys could show up again at any time.
Horiuchi
Hazuki
Sheesh.
Everyone, please settle down and listen to me.
Last night,
Horiuchi was in an accident and is in the hospital now.
Horiuchi Hazuki
You're okay, right, Hazuki?
It looks like you didn't make it in time.
What?
You...
Unfortunately, it's already gone.
Gone?
Yup, it's gone.
Her soul.
There's barely any time left.
What are you saying?!
Souls that leave their bodies become monsters.
Huh?
Well, after some time.
I got her data from her mother,
but I couldn't find it.
You got any idea?
W-What?
Where her soul is.
All that's here is an empty shell.
It's just a matter of time until it dies.
You're lying.
I mean, isn't she still alive?!
Is it here?
Hi, Makoto.
So you came.
Thank you.
Everything's all right.
The doctor said her injuries weren't that severe, so it's only a matter of time until she wakes up—
Please excuse me.
Give Hazuki back!
You're the one who can't do anything, right?
Why did it have to be Hazuki?
Is there a reason?!
I told you, "fate."
No, it's because you guys kill for fun.
Our job is to safely escort souls to heaven.
In particular, souls that have already left their bodies.
You're lying!
I'm lying?
You know it's true.
Regardless, there are too many souls that become lost in this country.
Don't talk about these things so casually!
Is there not something you could do to help?!
It wouldn't matter.
Why?
Because it's fate.
It's "fate," you say?
Who the hell decided that?!
There's a reason souls that have left their bodies don't come back.
Pain and despair.
When people can no longer endure them, their souls simply leak out.
Hey, it's me.
I'm pretty much done here.
I'll head back now.
I'm a bad guy.
You're a bad guy?
You're wrong.
If you think you're a bad guy,
you'll only become a human that realizes how much pain they're in eventually.
But if I had done something about Hazuki's pain then...
You remind me of myself.
I thought I had the power to change fate,
but I was just a powerless fool.
If only I had realized then...
On top of the observatory on the hill.
She's there.
But think about it carefully.
It may just be your own ego that wants her to live.
You idiot!
Horiuchi Hazuki
You have 1 new message.
Hi, Makoto.
Thanks for today.
Um...
There was more I wanted to say.
Don't tell anyone.
I know it's too late,
but I'm scared.
I'm scared of being alone.
Hey Makoto, next time—
Hazuki...
You didn't really want to die.
Makoto...
Where's Ichiko and Izumi?
Cleaning up after you.
There's no time left. I'm sending her.
I don't know what Akira inspired you to do,
but I won't let you pass.
This is ridiculous.
Even though it's useless...
Are you done already?
That was enough, wasn't it?
Huh?
All right. It's starting.
There's no stopping it now.
Hazuki!
Isn't there a chance she won't turn into a monster?
There are no exceptions.
Can't we wait a little longer?
Keep your feelings out of it.
You know better than anyone what happens.
Makoto!
Hazuki!
He's here!
Hazuki!
You still have time!
Jump in there, Makoto!
Are you an idiot?
You'll die.
What do you think you're doing?
Well, too late now.
I'll have to send the two of them.
I'm sorry, but...
we're going to need to wait a little longer,
old man.
You fool...
Even I don't know what'll happen.
I shut myself away when my mother died.
And the person who helped me find myself again...
was you!
Hazuki!
You're stronger than I could imagine, old man.
Fate cannot be changed so easily.
No,
I won't let you change it!
Damn it!
My, my...
It looks like I'll be sending three.
Ichiko?!
My bad, old man.
I simply love interesting things.
You knew that, right?
Do you understand exactly what the hell you've done?!
I can't be held responsible for what happens anymore.
Hazuki...
Hazuki!
Thank you for coming,
but it looks like it's too late for me now.
You can't give up!
I...
can't really see anymore.
What?
I'm pretty much blind as it is,
so it's okay.
Just let me go.
I won't let go.
I don't want to let go!
I'll be your eyes!
I love you, Hazuki.
Didn't you know that already?
Let's go home.
I knew...
Makoto.
We were holding hands, weren't we?
I'm not afraid anymore.
Fate can be changed.
Everyone...
eventually dies.
But it...
doesn't have to be today.
They look so carefree.
Right now they do,
but if they knew that there are still a lot of souls waiting for Makoto to save them...
It'd surprise them, wouldn't it?
Well then, is it our fate now to depend on him?
Let's go ask some wandering souls.
