Did you find him?!
No! We can't see well!
He couldn't have gone that far!
Mr. Muroi...
A flower that cut itself off from the morning light
begs for the rain that doesn't come and falls into an endless sleep
I hear a soft voice that's calling out for someone
is this dark paradise a lie or a dream?
What I'll lose is my body and my sense of self
If I offer them up as payment, what will I gain in return?
Life is so fragile and fleeting that I can steal it away with my tears
Do you bemoan the death that comes for us all as a thing to be "feared"?
The calendula that sings of the curtain's fall quietly blossoms into full bloom
Whether it's hatred or sadness, it pulls it in by its root
The calendula that sings of life's end soaks up the loneliness
It begs for the rain that doesn't come and falls into an endless sleep
"Monday, November 7, Tomobiki"
Don't let him get away!
Mr. Muroi...
No... Mr. Muroi...
"Mizobe Town"
I'm gonna leave the village this time for sure.
I'm gonna have a splendid big city life.
Even if they've blocked the roads,
there are many ways to get to the national road.
I... no longer have a master.
Oitarou's here!
He shot Tatsumi of the Kirishikis to death on Sannohashi Bridge.
What about the stake?
We have to hammer a stake into the body!
If his circulatory system isn't destroyed, it's possible that he's still alive.
Oh... That's right...
That was something else.
Oitarou!
Huh! That's...
It's burning...
Oitarou's here!
This is bad!
Mr. Muroi, no!
Please! Don't die! Mr. Muroi! Please!
I heard a voice!
It was a girl's voice!
It's him!
We must've gotten ahead of him somewhere!
It came from down there.
Let's spread out and corner them.
They can see well at night. We have to rely on our ears.
I heard something!
This way!
Toshio! The water supply doesn't reach Yamairi.
The well pump doesn't work either due to the blackout.
Yeah. The air is dry and the wind is strong. This is the worst scenario.
A little more... A little more...
Once I cross the national road and jump into the darkness on the other side,
humans can't see me. Once I cross the national road...
Just let me pass! Nothing good has happened to me up to now, so...
H-Hey! Look...
Is that Yamairi?!
Now!
"Bus Stop" "Sotoba Gateway"
Yuuki...
Who's there?!
Don't let her get away!
Where'd she go?!
--She ran this way! --It's okay. Humans can't see at night. I'm not scared of them!
There she is!
--No! --Don't let her get away!
"Yamairi Area, Sotoba"
It spread in an instant. And we can't even use water!
Right...
What are we gonna do? We can't put out the fire.
Yeah... We have no choice but to abandon Yamairi.
Let's stop carrying out the bodies.
We'll throw the rest of the bodies into the fire.
Okay. Got it.
The question is the direction of the wind.
Hey, we'll throw the bodies into the fire!
Natsuno...
Stop! It's me!
It's me, Megumi! Takeo... Takeo Shimizu's daughter!
I want to go to a big city!
So... I...
Please! Help!
Stop it!
Don't you know?
I'm Megumi Shimizu.
You all laughed at me saying that the way I dressed didn't fit with the village.
Why?! Why don't you get it?! You guys are the ones who're strange!
You don't have any problem living in a village like this!
You don't change even a bit!
You look at outsiders and rare things strangely!
You don't feel embarrassed about being uncool and tasteless.
A village like this...
A village like this shouldn't have existed from the start!
I wish I hadn't been born in a village like this!
A village like this... A village like this... I want it to be gone!
I wasn't here... I wasn't in a village like...
Let's kill her quickly for her sake.
Sh-She really is a shiki, right?
Of course she is. If she were a human, she would have long been dead.
Don't worry. I attended her funeral.
I have something I have to do.
I came to stop you.
Did you find them?!
There she is!
Yamairi... Someone, report this to the shrine!
Q-Okay!
Tell the Junior Doctor to cut down the trees!
It'll be a disaster if the fire reaches Sotoba!
Leave her to me!
I won't let her get away!
Hurry up! Now!
Junior Doctor!
With a fire of that size in Yamairi,
people from outside the village will come sooner or later.
We can't explain that mountain of bodies.
Our priority is to take care of the bodies.
Toshio, why don't we at least have women and children evacuate first?
We need cars as well as people! Unless we take care of the bodies
and somehow prevent the fire from crossing the North Mountain,
all the sacrifices we made to protect the village would become pointless!
Am I wrong?
No...
Let's have the injured and children go to the national road on foot and wait.
Okay. Then, we'll have them go to the roadside restaurant.
Please. Have some of those who'll take care of the others stay
and the rest go back.
Throw the bodies on the shrine premises into the hell hole.
We also have to go around the village to make sure there are no bodies left.
We have to camouflage the blood marks on the roads and traces of
breaking into houses.
I'll make the arrangements and do something about it.
Junior Doctor!
Yamairi is...!
It's burning fiercely! Due to the southern wind, it's gotten terrible.
We'll work on the North Mountain to stop the fire from spreading!
I see... Seems like you've sucked at least some blood.
We lost her!
Don't worry. We've been able to see her up until just now. She can't go that far.
Dammit!
Unlike shiki, jinrou have not died.
From the chasm of death, they transform without dying.
It seems that your father thought you were dead.
He took the trouble to call in the funeral home people from a big city, didn't he?
Jinrou and shiki are very similar and yet not the same.
I may have felt sympathy for you since you're in the same, rare species as I am.
I made the wrong decision with regards to killing you.
I should've killed you even though Sunako told me not to.
You hypnotized that Junior Doctor Ozaki before Chizuru did, right?
That's why her hypnosis didn't work.
Thanks to that, we're in this situation. You've done enough, haven't you?
You don't get it, do you? You and I are different.
It seems so!
I'm saying that I can't afford to waste time playing with a kid.
You guys are the ones who started it.
Why do you ostracize me so much?
Why... Why did you remain silent then?
Why didn't you try to stop me from committing that sin?
I didn't become your enemy because I wanted to.
Even so, you don't even try to forgive me.
Why?!
To think that you've run to a place like this...
Have you finally given up, little girl?
What're you scared of? After you mercilessly killed so many villagers?
I don't get it. What's the point in going that far to help humans?
No one will accept you.
Do you really think that they'll accept someone
who might suck their blood at any moment as one of them?
When did I say that I'm on the humans' side?
I just don't like you guys, that's all.
I caught you, you brat.
Toshio! We can't keep on going!
What're you doing?! Run!
Toshio! Toshio!
Toshio!
The fire is crossing the North Mountain!
If this goes on...
Sotoba will go up in flames...
As it stands...
...the fire will reach here before we finish clearing things away.
It's time to give up!
D-Don't! Please!
You have no right, you little murderess.
There're things you can do and you can't do in this world!
You attack people for your own reasons and when they rise up,
you treat them like they're one of you without even asking.
Is that what you don't like?
You don't get it.
Give me a break!
Listen. In this world, since olden times, there have been "rules"
which were decided by no one. They're not complicated or anything.
Those from outside greet the villagers and get used to the village.
It's that simple!
The young shouldn't die before the old.
Those important rules have been protecting small villages like Sotoba.
You tore that apart. You broke the rules. Go back to hell.
Don't ever rise up and come back!
I see. You were planning to do this from the start, huh?
But jinrou don't die from this kind of thing.
It's inconvenient, isn't it?
Aren't you afraid of dying?
I've been dead for a long time.
Mr. Muroi...
This place will burn down soon. Let's hurry.
I'll stay here.
Sunako“.
Please stay here with me, Mr. Muroi.
At last...
I made the decision to abandon myself.
Those who have been forsaken by God shouldn't be alive.
Sunako, after all this happened, I finally realized...
What?
God says nothing at any time.
And God's silence has nothing to do with life or death.
Mr. Muroi...
That's not all. When you became isolated from the world,
you were also excluded from God's jurisdiction at the same time.
There's nothing that protects you.
You're not even eligible to be accused of and punished for sins.
That's terrible.
And yet, you've continued to live being unable to abandon your belief
and deep attachment towards God.
It's too sad.
"Tuesday, November 8, Senpu"
You can probably see that fire even from Mizobe town.
Soon the fire trucks will rush in. Now that it's come to this,
we have no choice but to leave everything to the force of the fire.
After all, the village will die out anyway.
Does this mean I lost?
Is it about... win or lose? Against who?
Hmm, I wonder who it would be...
What I did might have just been a useless struggle.
"Ozaki Clinic"
Sis...!
Sotoba is in flames!
Under cover of darkness, you hold your breath
Clad in darkness, you smile softly
It's just your imagination, I'm sure no one knows you
Only the moon is gazing at you
Ahh, wandering in the endless night
Ahh, just dreaming about you
Ahh, wandering in the endless night
Ahh, just dreaming about you
Ahh...
