I'm terribly sorry, but we'll disappear if we don't do this.
There really are other ghosts like us, eh?
You bastard, let go of Arashi-san!
Be a good little boy and stand still.
Otherwise, you will die.
Natsu no Arashi!
#SubsFuckingWhere@irc.rizon.net
Just a bit more...
Fine.
Glasses-san.
Geez, what's the meaning of this?
You really intended to kill him just now, didn't you?
Who knows?
Disgusting.
From this moment onward, I'll pretend I never accepted your job offer,
young lady.
Is that so? And?
Huh?
Arashi-san!
To swing your Katana at a woman...
Men are vulgar in every era, aren't they?
Dammit!
Arashi-san! Arashi-san!
That war was started by men, too.
Thanks to them, our bodies became like this.
I don't want to remember.
In that abominable air raid, combustion bombs fell from the sky like raindrops.
Arashi-san!
If you dare investigate us, I'll kill you.
And if you report us to the police, I'll kill you.
Understand?
Now, it's time to say goodbye.
Wait!
Shit!
Foreigner
Hey, its about time you told me everything.
What's up with those people?
They're ghosts; they've existed for 60 years.
Ghosts, eh?
Hey, Glasses-san.
Bring me to where that woman lives.
What are you planning to do when you get there?
She's got a crossbow hidden under her skirt.
This kind of situation should be left to the police.
How would we explain it to them?!
There's a possibility that Arashi-san could be exposed.
She's relying on a brat like me to prevent things like that...
And yet...
You...
If I can't protect her even once, I'll hate myself!
Okay, I get it. I'll go with you.
Huh? Why are you following me?
A suspicious, unknown person like you...
What did you say?! You annoying brat!
Just believe in me.
Here, my card.

Private Detective
Murata... Hideo?
Your name's Murata Hideo?
Yeah, to honor my dad's savior during the bombings,
he gave me this name.
He wanted me to grow up to be a hero.
What do you think? It suits me well, right?
Is that so? That's how it is.
Arashi-san wasn't wrong about anything!
Huh?
So before Arashi-san goes to save someone,
their descendants already exist!
Hey, what are you saying?
History didn't change at all!
No, more accurately,
it's because Arashi-san saved someone that time remains as it is now.
No one disappeared, and no one was sacrificed!
Arashi-san... Arashi-san is...
...a true hero.
Alright, let's go find that woman, Glasses-san!
Why are you taking the lead?
Wait for me, Arashi-san.
I'm sorry, I didn't read any books today.
Take your time and rest.
Now, absorb this life force.
It's over there.
How's it inside?
I've only been in there a few times.
It's always dark, like a haunted house.
I didn't see any parents or anything.
There's only that scary woman, the one called Yamazaki Kanako...
...and another girl around her age, but I don't know her name.
What kind of person is she?
She sits on a wheelchair, and she seems like a nice girl. The two are close friends.
She's probably connected with the woman in black.
Now, what are you planning to do?
We should have a battle plan.
That woman can use some weird tricks; she isn't easy to handle.
Let's split up once we get inside.
You're going solo? That's too dangerous.
You lure the woman in black away, and I'll take the other woman hostage.
Hey, isn't that going a bit overboard?
I don't want to target a disabled person.
She made Arashi-san like that!
How is Arashi-san holding up?
Is this what you meant? Her existence becoming unstable, or whatever?
Probably.
What's going on? What did Hajime say?
He didn't tell me the details...
Geez, that brat.
He should at least discuss it with the adults before making a move.
He said we can't let others know about Arashi-san and Kaya-san.
And I'm one of the "others"?
Never mind, its nothing.
For the moment, let's make something to eat.
What are you saying at a time like this?
Hajime's doing his best to make Arashi better, right?
If so, it won't be good if Arashi wakes up seeing us all depressed.
I'll go ask grandpa if he can let us use the kitchen.
And bring some beer.
It's pretty stuffy in here. Don't these guys get hot?
There's a pretty amazing evil aura here.
It's not an evil aura! It's motivation!
Don't change your tune when the time comes.
Let's split up to search both floors.
I'll take the second floor.
Okay, I'll pray that you don't meet that scary woman.
But man, ghost hunting...
Hm, it seems like they have good taste.
I wonder how those two live?
This thing is old, too.
She's gone?
She doesn't make a sound...
Maybe sneaking in after dark was the wrong decision.
This is that woman in black's companion.
Who are you?!
Alright!
I guess people from the war era don't know about these kinds of self-defense tools!
Damn, in the end, I'm just bullying the weak.
Here.
Stand up.
People from the war era know this much, as well.
I'm going to tie you up.
I'm sorry, but I won't show you any mercy.
Kanako, where is Kanako?
What's going on? What happened?
Kanako...
You're connected with that woman, right?
Huh?
Hey... are you being threatened or used by that woman?
By Kanako...?
That's how it is, right?
I'll help you out, so let's run away from here.
That's not it! What are you talking about?
You've got it all wrong!
Kanako wouldn't do something like that.
I understand that she's dear to you.
But I won't stop just because of that; she was the one who attacked us first.
You're coming with me.
I'll return Arashi-san to normal.
You're Arashiyama-san's...
You know Arashi-san?
Yeah.
What's going on? Who are you people?
Don't touch me!
What's going on?
I... we were in the same school as Arashiyama-san.
Huh?
My name is Fushimi Yayoi.
Natsu no Arashi!
Showa 20
Hey, did you hear, Fushimi-san?
Arashi's singing of 'Ode to Early Spring' really was amazing, wasn't it?
Yeah.
Our song, 'If I Go Away to the Sea', paled in comparison.
I liked Kaya's recitation of the poem Lorelei.
That's right, Kaya is amazing, too.
What do you think, Fushimi-san?
I...
How do you do, everyone?
How do you do.
How wonderful.
Arashi and Kaya walking together... it's like a dance stange.
It's something to look forward to at the next culture festival.
That's right, Fushimi-san.
I heard Arashi and Kaya asked you to accompany them in their performance?
Yeah.
It must be because you play the piano very well. I'm so jealous.
I'm not sure if someone like me can play it well, so I'm a bit worried...
But I'll do my best.
We're looking forward to it.
How long are you people going to stand around chatting?
Sorry.
You seniors can't even tie your hair properly, and you stand around talking foolishness.
That's why you always fail in your work, and we have to make up for it.
How annoying, who does she think she is?
She's just jealous. She lacks the qualities we have, so she holds grudges against us.
Who cares about ancestry? Who cares about prestigious students?
Those girls are completely useless.
You...
Please let me help.
If I practice a lot, I might be praised by Arashi. How nice that would be!
Fushimi-san.
Ah, you're...
I'm Yamazaki.
Yakazaki-san.
You've got a big attitude, as expected of a schoolgirl.
Slacking off with your work, and spending all your time playing the piano.
That's not...
I can't stand you.
You think pretending to be a good kid will make others nicer towards you?
That sort of music hurts my ears.
You should diassemble that piano, and turn this piano room into a classroom.
Um...
Won't you come to the culture festival during the next brown out?
It'll be a lot of fun, and everyone will be able to go back to being girls.
Do you take me for a fool?
Of course not...
I will never go.
But Kanako still came.
She came to listen to me play the piano.
Why would such an introvert suddenly change her mind and go?
Did something happen?
I don't know, but Kanako is really a nice girl.
Hmph, I didn't see any of that.
It's true, we talked alone after the cultural festival.
Our personalities were so similar, it was scary.
She also started getting along with other people.
After that, we both supported each other along the road.
Even during those dark and disgusting Mobilization days.
And even now.
What are you doing here?
Kanako!
It's okay, Kanako.
This child didn't do anything to me.
You...
Please, Kanako, stop doing things like this.
Our continually diminishing existence is also part of fate.
No, it should actually mean that we're lucky.
Everyone else... on that day...
You can accept that sort of unresonable death?
Live on, Yayoi.
No matter what happens, we must live on together!
So it's alright to sacrifice Arashi-san?
She still has a lot of things she needs to do.
She flew back to the past and saved a lot of people...
...without a thought for her own safety!
Wonderful. Ah, she really is a wonderful person.
No matter the era.
Kanako...
Then she should be happy to sacrifice herself for us.
I won't let you!
Didn't you say Arashi wanted to save people?
Arashi-san... that might be Arashi-san's wish,
but it isn't mine!
My wish is to help Arashi-san jump to 60 years ago,
and protect her!
Did you jump to May 29th, 20 years ago?
May... 29th...
No.
That's why you can say something like that.
From that day onwards, Yayoi became unable to walk due to a terrible trauma.
I won't allow Yayoi to experience something so frightening again.
We will live for eternity in this peaceful town.
The people who stand in our way should all just disappear!
As if I could die here!
Ouch...
W-Where did you go!?
Yayoi! Yayoi!
Yayoi!!
I'm bored.
Too bored.
Doesn't anyone have any interesting stories?
Um...
I read a book the other day.
Oh.
What kind of book?
I seem to have forgotten the title.
Let us know what kind of story it was.
Okay.
It was a story of a very peaceful school.
Students split up into countless teams.
Using their own unique abilities,
sometimes they would fight,
and other times, they would strengthen their friendships and mature together.
Especially the main character's team; they were always in the spotlight.
His unique way of thinking brought many new ideas.
Eh? How interesting.
That team had something they would always say.
What was it?
Kimen! Flash!
Right?
Arashi!
Are you alright?
Did I say something wrong?
When you think of summer...
You think of rain showers, right?
It comes down suddenly, and as soon as you buy an umbrella from the convenience store, it'll stop.
Wouldn't there be too many umbrellas, then?
Not really, it balances out when you lose them.
Get up bright and early again tomorrow!
Natsu no Arashi!
Get up bright and early next time!
