In order to discover the truth
The evening news doesn't tell you
How many things aren't broadcast
Who loses
Who is obtaining it, and for whose sake
Being pure is a beautiful and dangerous thing
The world that surrounds us won't show itself
All it does is force a different truth from yesterday's on us
At the very least, I will try to change the feeling of the reality that is right in front of me
Into something certain, surely
Damn it!
Whoa!
Having a hard time?
Maria!
That spy bastard's using the building and the terrain well.
There's just one of them. This isn't like you.
Maybe you underestimated him?
It's him!
Maxim!
He's overdoing it!
Episode Five Magnificent Approach
Ow!
That's right. This isn't my house.
Don't!
Don't, don't! You can't, so don't!
Look, the egg shells are dangerous, right?
Don't lick it. Don't!
Darn...
Good morning.
Kai, good morning.
Are the eggs all right?
Well... It's all right.
I'll clean it up right now, so...
What's wrong?
Well, now that you're going to be living here,
I thought I should prepare breakfast or something, but...
I thought, "no matter what I do, it's never any good."
Actually, Yuuki banned me from coming into the kitchen.
Banned? Why?
"You have so little talent for cooking it's almost refreshing,
so don't come into the kitchen!"
...he said.
Well, you're family, so he was just being a bit strict with you, that's all.
That food from before was delicious.
It was all made by Yuuki.
He made it?!
You see, the first time that Yuuki ate food that I had made,
he ended up not talking to me for a whole day.
Why don't we go and buy some eggs?
Yuuki's still asleep, right? Let's do it before he finds out.
Okay!
So that's how it was.
Yeah, and then Yuuki made me a cake that was THIS big.
Kai?
You've been gawking for a while now.
All of this is unusual for you, right?
Does Gald feel different from the city you live in, Kai?
Yeah...
Well, I wonder?
Oh, that's right! Kai, wait here!
Excuse me.
Sorry to keep you waiting!
Kai, which would you prefer, cookies and cream, or strawberry cheesecake?
You got one of those for me?
Right! I recommend them both! Pick whichever one you like.
Then... The one without a topping, I guess.
Okay!
Later, I'll give you a little bit of this one too, okay?
It's delicious too!
Thanks...
Then let's go back!
Asuka, did you buy the eggs?
I'm sorry, hold this, I'll buy them right away!
But I'm not good with sweets.
What am I doing here, not going back to Ashurum?
Kai?
You don't like ice cream all that much?
Look, you haven't eaten it at all, so it's melting.
Thanks.
That's no good, Kai.
If there's something you don't like, you have to say you don't like it.
I don't mean just the ice cream.
Kai, you're a nice person,
so you're always trying not to hurt other people and covering for them,
but you're lying to yourself.
Asuka...
When I do this, your feelings are conveyed to me, Kai.
Yuuki laughs at me, but somehow,
I can understand the feelings of birds and animals and the like.
You're kind of similar to them, Kai.
Not in words, but it feels like I can hear something from far away.
I've felt this sensation somewhere before.
Back then...
I thought it would be all right if I died, just like that.
But...
I know that you must be in pain, Kai.
You might be the only one who can understand your pain, but...
Be nicer to yourself too.
You're right. I'll do just that, Asuka.
If there's anything I can do, just say so, okay?
Asuka, thank you.
Man, Yuuki really is good at cooking.
I wonder if Yuuki's angry?
Oh, yeah... I wonder...
I'm sure he's angry about that.
"Come downstairs when you finish eating"?
Calvaria...
Is it a code name for something?
What does it mean?
It's because it's you that you'll be able to find it.
Yuuki...
So you've arrived.
Well done.
What else did you learn at Ashurum?
What are you planning?
As long as you're here, you're going to earn your own board.
What else can you do?
I'm not an actual soldier.
Enough with the big talk, tell me.
All kinds of martial arts and communication technologies.
Associated codebreaking, information gathering and processing,
and I have all kinds of licenses for various transportation methods.
If it's a land or air vehicle, then I can probably drive it.
All right! If you can do all that, that's fantastic!
I'll make sure to think about where you'll be earning your money!
Yuuki, everyone's looking this way.
So what?
They'll realize what I am!
And in any case, it would be strange if anyone could actually walk in these!
Calm down, no one's figured it out.
In a place like this, a guy who brings a woman with him will arouse less suspicion.
Still, even though we're not under suspicion...
Why are we getting so much attention?
What is it?
What are you looking at?
You're quite the beauty.
Idiot! Try stepping into my shoes!
I'm wearing this sticky make-up on my face, and it feels so disgusting that I can't stand it!
But being able to change so much is a talent.
If I didn't know your identity, I'd probably hit on you.
Shut up!
What number would you like to bet on?
So this is the playground for the rich in the Gald area, is it?
That's the outward appearance.
They're here.
That's the boss of the syndicate that currently controls Gald.
The police do what he says to.
The man behind him is his secretary.
The inside of the case he's holding
is packed full of the goods that are going to be exchanged tonight.
An exchange? In a place like this?
It's because it's a place like this that it'll go well.
That's the detective that was assigned here last week.
This time, we're going to let that detective perform a great deed.
The arrangements are just as I told you.
Shoot, and run... Do it.
Don't just say "do it"!
Why are you getting angry?
This has bothered me the whole time!
If that boss gets arrested, then who benefits?
That doesn't matter.
It's your client, right?
And what'll you do if you know?
Is it going to help you shoot and run?
This isn't fair!
Since you're going to make me help you, tell me everything that's in the requests!
If you do this job successfully, I'll tell you everything.
So you mean you still don't trust me?
That's right. That's fair, right?
I'll do it. All I have to do is do it, right?
Well done.
Police! Don't move!
What did I do?!
It was shoot, then run, right?
Oww...
Just take those off and go! Hurry up!
Guard all of the exits!
Don't let a single person in this casino outside!
Just as we had planned!
Kai!
Yuuki!
Yeah?
The client was someone trying to overthrow that boss, wasn't it?
He's an opposing force that wants to get his hands on the organization in that boss's place.
Am I wrong?
And so?
Kai! We're going to split up!
Find your own way back home!
We're not finished talking yet!
Yuuki!
Good work on your first job.
Does Asuka know that you earn your money this way?
We let the police arrest the villain.
The work itself wasn't wrong, was it?
It was a just thing to do, the way you like it.
But the situation isn't going to change at all, right?
This time, all that's going to happen is that your client is going to control Gald!
As a result, the evil remains!
Where's the justice in that?
Tell me, what else could I do?
Don't think you can keep on living being so idealistic!
It takes money to live in this town!
Even you have no choice but to use your own skills to live, right?
Don't talk like I have no choices!
You're just a big softie, aren't you?!
Asuka!
Yuuki... Welcome home.
How many times have I told you
not to cook?!
I'm sorry, Yuuki.
Here.
I'm glad you weren't hurt.
Thank you very much.
Yuuki, where's Kai? Weren't you together?
We need to serve tea to our guest.
What? If you're looking for Kai, he's right there.
Oh, no!
Well...
I'll be sure to wash it and give it back!
I feel refreshed.
What?! That beautiful woman just now was Kai?!
Yeah, yeah.
Really? It was really Kai? Hey, Yuuki, come on!
That was so surprising.
But Kai was really a beauty.
The nice scent of perfume...
Does it look good on me?
Yuuki bought it for me for my birthday.
Yuuki's playing the piano.
Tell me, what else could I do?
Don't think you can keep on living being so idealistic!
What you're saying is idealistic nonsense, Kai!
I wonder how Ashurum is seen from this city?
The two of us had already started to get wet from the rapidly pouring rain
We snuck out in a hurry, throwing away everything
We wrapped our fingers together so that no one else could see it
That's our secret sign
So take me away from here, take me right away
Tonight midnight
So don't stop anymore, touch me right away
Tonight, it's true love
The night that can't return is going to begin
This is an abandoned city.
Sealed away, its existence denied.
But there is freedom here.
It is unsupervised, and it is unrestricted.
People's hopes grow and are alive.
I want to protect this irreplaceable city.
