Let's see, this goes here...
What is this face?
I feel a prick of pain when I look at it.
Back then...
Welcome back, Canaan.
Thanks...
At the time, Canaan was...
Like this-this face...
Ah, it's no good!
Chaos rules once again.
Maria?
Something's strange.
What about tonight isn't strange?
Everything about this night is wrong.
Everything.
It's your fault.
Your true name is Despair.
When are you going to show me your true power?
Don't die before you show me.
Why is everyone against me?
Why do they die?
What is this?
Canaan!
What's wrong?
I'm all right.
I was just resting.
Did you get the water?
Maria.
I understood...
Please.
...that Canaan wanted me to say something.
This is the first time that I've...
But I didn't know what to say.
The Canaan I know sees things I can't see.
She faces a world I don't know.
Despite that, she continues running and shining.
But now Canaan is...
Ah! That hotel is too cramped for four people!
There aren't enough beds.
I'll sleep with you, okay?
If I'm with Maria...
If I'm with Canaan...
I guess it's no use.
You guys go head back on the train.
But-
It's better than everyone being stuck here and having to keep paying for the hotel.
Besides, we can't leave the car here.
So good!
Eat up! I turned the leftover bread from this morning into sandwiches!
Thanks.
Come on, you too, Canaan!
Thanks.
Man! There are so few passengers! It's like we have the car to ourselves!
It feels great!
Looks like an inspection.
I hope we'll be okay.
We'll be fine.
We're just a bunch of kids who've done nothing wrong.
What was that?
Yun-Yun, protect Maria.
It's okay. We'll go home together.
Canaan!
Is it really okay?
What is this?
This feeling.
This is...
That day...
Sham.
This is where I died.
Alphard killed you.
I wonder about that.
I wonder who it was that killed us.
Yun-Yun, just sit down!
No way!
Canaan told me to protect you!
Just sit!
Al-Al-Al-Al-Al-Al-Al...
Alphard.
Pardon me.
Let me sit with you.
T-T-There are other open seats!
G-Get out, you nasty Snake!
Canaan is a Neanderthal.
Compared to that, you've got a good head on your shoulders.
What are you implying?
It's all right.
Earlier, you said I had something I should be doing.
Yeah.
Canaan is at her strongest when she has a light to protect.
And at her most frightening...
A light to protect.
That's right.
When she has someone that understands and loves her completely,
her true power will be unleashed.
Understands and loves her completely?
That face of Canaan was a face I didn't know.
Doubt, hatred, fear, suffering, and repentance.
It was all there.
Why? Then who are you saying killed you?
It was all her fault!
It's your fault.
Stop! Don't say any more...
Stop!
No!
Don't look away.
Without relying on your strange merged senses...
Look, just like that, at the facts.
Are you afraid of death?
N-No!
The Iron Clash agent willing to take on any kind of dangerous job
is afraid of death.
That can't be right.
Right now, you are...
...just an ordinary girl.
She's afraid of the people close to her dying.
When she's physically hurt...
No, when she's hurt emotionally, she feels pain like anybody would.
That kind of Canaan is...
You have one role to fulfill.
You are the catalyst that will unleash Canaan's full power.
What're you saying?
I understand.
H-Hey...
We don't have a choice.
I'll bear the responsibility you believe I should have.
But in exchange...
Let me take your picture.
You have keen senses, but as a consequence, you sometimes lose sight of the simple truth.
An old train.
The smell of blood.
Gunshots.
Your senses are stimulated by these things, and you see things that aren't even there.
In other words, you're not seeing the truth.
That's not true!
I see it.
What's really important...
Could you see it on that day?
I want to see you with my own eyes.
Without running away...
Without relying on Canaan...
Otherwise...
I won't be able to walk alongside Canaan anymore.
Very well.
That day...
I was parted from Sham-from light.
And then-
Don't get confused.
I don't want to lose my light.
That's not it.
Right now, that which I must defend, my light, is-
Don't look away.
Without relying on your strange senses...
Just like that...
See things the way they are!
You're pretty late, aren't you?
Where are Maria and Yun-Yun?
Why are you asking me?
You should already know.
Maria's color...
Something's different.
It's faint and flickering.
This is-
What have you done to Maria?
Your new light might go out in the middle of a journey, just like before.
Maria...
Why did this happen?
Don't move!
I'll definitely help you through this!
I'll protect you!
Canaan...
I'd be frustrated if you had to keep protecting me.
I don't think I was lying about that feeling.
All you have to do is stay with me.
But in the end, I kept following Canaan.
She's strong, brave, and always sees things I can't.
She constantly shines on me.
I was longing for that Canaan.
In the car they're locked up in, I've set up a time bomb.
And Oosawa Maria is injured.
If our fun lasts too long, she'll die.
Good! This is what I wanted.
This is the Despair that Sham-that I-saw.
Don't call me by a name that's not mine!
I hate it.
Sham gave me my name!
Canaan!
That is my name!
I am Canaan!
I really hate it.
Why you too?
Sham and I are the same.
That's why.
The same?
I became stronger, just as Sham wished.
Just as he wished, I made the past my own.
I turned revenge into fuel and rose up and up.
A snake dancing through the sky.
You're wrong!
Sham said nothing is born from revenge!
A warrior born from hatred is already a defeated person.
Sham sealed his fate when he let you hear those words.
That's right. At the very least,
if you hadn't appeared, Sham wouldn't have died there.
Don't fuck with me!
That's bullshi-
You're really a fool.
The one who killed Sham is telling you so.
If you hadn't appeared, Sham wouldn't have died there.
Our time limit is beginning to draw near.
I'll kill you!
There are things that I've lost.
Things that I've gained,
then lost again.
Things I've sought and sought, ran after, and achieved.
Maria smells good,
she's kind,
and she's warm.
You're just like a baby.
When you want something badly, you don't know when to back off.
That kind of straightforward love is certain to hurt others.
That's right.
Canaan is a baby.
She accepts everything; nothing bothers her.
And she loves me unconditionally.
If Canaan were an ordinary girl,
I couldn't accept her because I'm too weak.
Ahh, what should I do?
If you were never alive, I may never have shot Sham.
You're wrong...
And because of you, Oosawa Maria will lose her life!
You're wrong!
Wrong! Wrong!
That's right; it's wrong, Canaan.
Even though Canaan is risking her life to fight for someone like me...
I can't...
There, that's the only way.
We'll jump out from there!
Come on!
It's impossible.
We can't go together.
No problem!
If we waste time, we go boom!
Go alone.
What're you saying?
Yun-Yun,
I have something to ask of you.
No, no way!
Impossible, I won't!
Yun-Yun, please!
Please!
Blue flames.
I'll aim for the instant the intent to kill flares up.
For the tiny window before the attack...
And yet-why?
"Why aren't things going as they usually do?" Is that what you're thinking?
I think it is.
I don't want to kill you.
I was Sham's Canaan back then.
And as Canaan, I continued to seek the abilities Sham wished for.
There are such things as superhumans.
What's that? Something from Hollywood?
It's not a joke.
It goes without saying that there are very talented people born every day.
Every once in a while, a fortunate soldier is born whose talents are perfectly suited to battle.
A superhuman is like a violent storm.
If you were to meet one on the battlefield, you would have no choice but to despair at your own inability.
Then what about me?
Let's see...
You're in between.
Sham saw you.
He saw the despair that easily overcame his limitations.
Despair...
It may be so.
Canaan,
you are my light.
You shine straight toward me from wherever you are.
And through being loved by you, by being shone on by you,
a shadow was created in the corner of my heart.
I want to be able to shine on my own.
So, stay close.
Stay with me.
I was born from hatred, and I have tamed hatred.
And I laugh.
That's the creature I am.
I am a snake. I slither on the ground, and I am hated.
I'll tell you something.
What I want to kill isn't you.
I will kill you, kill Despair, and destroy Sham's ghost!
I'm sorry, Canaan.
I can't shine on you.
I can't...
I'm sorry...
Canaan.
