You're alive! Ichika!
I knew you would be alive.
Are you all right? You're not hurt?
I'm not hurt...
But why are you here? Did you come to see m-
I was looking for you!
Do you have any idea how worried we were about you after you went missing?
Went missing? Why would you think that?
You're the one who activated the emergency transmitter!
Huh?
Oh...
That was an accident...
Then why did the rescue pod drone lose contact with us?
W-Well... one thing led to another and...
It was me!
I was the one who did it.
She... Ichika was in danger, or so I thought.
And you are?
Let me introduce him to you.
He's Kirishima Kaito.
My, um... boyfriend.
Nice to meet you.
What's the matter with you?
Not only did you make contact with the natives, but you also found yourself a boyfriend?
Have you ever heard of the Federation Law? Huh?!
You made contact with Kaito too!
I only came to save you!
It's an emergency!
It was for me too... ow!
Do you have any idea how much your family members worried about you?
You don't understand the current situation at all!
Ow!
We'll Be Waiting That Summer
hoho wo sugiru shiokaze
The sea breeze blows past my cheeks
kimi wa damatteru dake
You still remain silent
hontou wa sono yokogao furete mitai no ni
To be honest, I want to feel that pretty face in my hand
kuchizuketa ki ga shiteta
It feels like we've kissed
are wa sou yume no naka
But it was in my dream
genjitsu no kyoukai wo kaze ga sarau
The wind blows away the boundary of reality
nanigenai kotoba de kagayakidashita nichijou
Your casual words lit up my ordinary life
itsuka mita eiga mitai dane
It's like that movie we watched
kisetsu ga meguri meguttemo
Even if the seasons came and went
bokura wo zutto matteru
I can smell the scent of summer that
kogeta film no you na natsu no kaori
smells like burning film waiting for us
tsuite kienai yokan
The permanently recorded feeling
nozoita lens tobikoete
will pass through the viewfinder and lens
sono te wo tsukamu kara
to clasp your hand
You're late, Remon.
I was thinking about the rest of the story for too long.
Where's Ichika and Kirishima?
They're not here yet.
I wonder if we got the meeting time mixed up.
Tanigawa.
Could you go and see what's keeping them?
Allow me to introduce myself.
I'm Takatsuki Emika. Ichika's older sister.
I'm Kirishima Kaito.
Thank you for protecting Ichika after she got into the accident.
I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of our entire family.
Y-You're welcome.
I'm really sorry for the trouble she caused.
I will take her back home.
Sis?
An emergency transmission from a remote planet,
and losing contact with the rescue pod drone sent for retrieval...
Ichika, you're not just considered a castaway. They think you've gone missing.
I hope you now understand why we were so worried about you.
All your relatives are making a huge fuss about it.
What?
That's why I used up my vacation days, rented a brand new ship, and came all the way here to find you!
And what did I find?
Not only were you living here as if nothing had happened, but you even made a boyfriend?
I-I'm sorry.
I didn't think it would turn into such a big deal.
Um, Sister...
I like that.
Being called that by a younger boy is kind of refreshing.
Um, now that Ms. Ichika's safety has been confirmed, is everything fine now?
He's got a point there!
The search has already begun.
But you can just report my safety to them.
You've gone missing in a remote planet with a Class-F civilization,
meaning that you're not allowed to have contact with the natives.
The Federation must talk to you in person as soon as possible.
If they located you and discovered what you're doing, you'd be arrested on the spot.
You will be prosecuted under the Federation Law.
But...
Is there anything we can do about it?
That's why I'm here.
Ichika. You have to go back home with me before things get any messier.
No way...
No.
I'm not leaving Kaito.
Absolutely not.
If you stay here, you'll end up putting Kirishima and this planet in a difficult situation.
I haven't done anything wrong.
That's not the problem.
Why can't you understand how I feel?
Calm down, Ichika.
Listen to what your sister has to say and come up with a-
There are no other solutions.
Ichika, you should know that already.
Rinon!
Ichika!
Ichika...
I'm sorry, Kirishima,
for making you see her like this.
Don't be.
Takatsuki...?
Tani... gawa?
What are you doing here? We're already... way behind schedule...
Why aren't you wearing any shoes?
Ichika?
U-Um... Ichi...
Ms. Ichika absolutely has to go home?
She has to.
Can she go back, then return here?
It would be difficult, given the situation.
Then...
Then take me back with you!
I'll do anything!
Are you really going to do all that for a clumsy and stubborn girl?
Yes!
Let's talk somewhere else.
G-Going back home?
They've already started looking for me.
It's not something I can escape from.
I doubt they'll negotiate.
Isn't there something you could do?
No.
I'm sure things will get really messy if I try to stay.
That's why, I...
You're going to leave?
You're going to go back home and leave Kaito behind?
But there's nothing I can-
You're going to give up staying with the person you love?!
You were dating Kaito with so little determination?
You're just going to give up like that?
Do you know... how I felt when I...
Tanigawa.
Do whatever you want!
Give up and leave the person you love behind!
Go back home or wherever you want!
This planet is a nice place.
There's so much nature left.
It's completely unlike our planet, but it feels nostalgic somehow.
Ichika said the same thing.
She said she had a vision of a place on this planet.
That's why she came, she said.
I have that vision as well.
This is just my guess,
but I think our ancestors must have left behind that image in our DNA.
We must have inherited those genes.
Why would they do that?
Who knows? Maybe our ancestors buried a treasure there.
I don't mind it at all, but Ichika may have been obsessed with that vision.
I tried to scan this entire planet when I was looking for Ichika,
but I couldn't find the place that matched the vision.
Umm...
You said you were willing to come with us,
but we're not allowed to take residents of a Class-F civilization to space.
People on this planet must first gain the technology for interstellar travel,
make official contact with us, and join the Galaxy Federation...
Only then would your wish be granted.
It will be centuries, by this planet's time standards, before that'll happen.
Is there... any other way?
None, unless the Federation Law gets revised.
Thank you, Kirishima, for caring about Ichika so much.
But...
I have to take Ichika home.
It's in her best interest.
Who would've thought she'd have gotten a boyfriend?
Now I feel like one of the bad guys even though I came here to save her.
You're Takatsuki Ichika's sister?
Who's there?
Kanna isn't back yet...
Remon ran off to somewhere, too.
What the hell are Kaito and Ichika doing?
They'd better not have forgotten about filming and be flirting around instead!
I guess it's a lucky break for me.
Huh?
Yeah?
Yes.
Yes what?
Kanna!
Where are they?
I don't know.
What's wrong, Kanna?
Takatsuki is going back home.
Somebody was sent for her.
What?!
There are unavoidable circumstances.
There's nothing she can do.
So that's it for our movie.
It's a waste of time staying here, so let's go home!
W-Wait, Kanna.
For what?
Does Takatsuki really want to go back home?
How should I know?
What's going to happen to Kai?
Are you fine with that?
If Ichika left, leaving Kai behind...
Would you be fine with that?
Are you really fine with that?
How can I...
be fine with that?!
I was talking to your sister.
She turned me down when I asked her to take me with her, though.
But I haven't given up about staying with you.
Tanigawa gave me a lecture.
For what?
Ichika?
Don't tell me...
Teleport me, Rinon.
Ichika!
Nope!
You're giving up a bit too early, Ichika.
Tetsurou...
You too, Kitahara?
We heard about what happened.
That's why we came!
We can't let it happen, right?
I-It'd be inconvenient if she left, because we won't be able to film the movie.
Tanigawa...
I want you to stay here, Takatsuki.
Me too.
But...
I mean, Kirishima is here.
But...
Tell us the truth!
What do you really want to do?
I don't want to leave.
I don't want to go home.
I don't want to be separated.
I love Kaito.
I love you too!
I want to be with you.
I don't care if I turn the entire universe against us!
Kaito...
Then it's settled!
Thank you.
What will you do then?
Are you two going to elope?
Hide somewhere, maybe?
That's...
It seems like you're in a fix.
Remon!
I have good news for the both of you.
Episode Eleven
Don't Leave, Senpai.
She can stay on Earth?!
Yes. Although the possibility is extremely slim.
But it's not zero.
What do I have to do?
Ichika, you were looking for this place you had in your mind, correct?
Yes.
Would it be possible if aliens had visited this planet before?
B-But it's merely my imagination...
Ichika's sister told me that she has the same vision in her mind as well.
But nowhere on Earth matched it.
They went through the trouble of leaving a vision in memory.
There might be a mechanism that prevents that place to be detected by their technology.
Then it'd be even harder to find.
Let's compare the data collected by Ichika with the map of Earth.
I see.
If there's a place not mapped in her data, then that's the place we're looking for.
But how did you figure all this out?
Someone gave me advice.
Is that...
Sis... I've been so selfish, yet...
You should thank your friends.
Ichika, you don't have much time left.
Hurry up.
Okay!
If we find that place, and if we can find evidence of human contact with aliens...
then Earth wouldn't be classified as a planet with Class-F civilization!
If we can find it before the search team shows up...
Ichika.
We can limit the search to Japan, right?
Yes.
I think we can limit the search to the Nagano area given the types of plantation that appeared.
We'll find it no matter what!
Yeah!
Something is coming...
from the right side...
Get some sleep, Kai.
But we don't know when the search team is going to show up.
I'll let you in on something interesting to keep you awake.
Something interesting?
I told Kanna how I felt about her a while ago.
What? What do you mean?
I knew how it'd turn out, though.
Is that why you told me about how she felt?
I was thinking too much about myself.
So I don't want that to happen to you.
Tetsurou...
Also,
Mio professed her love to me in Okinawa.
Are you serious?
Yeah.
I kind of thought nothing was happening in high school,
so I wanted to do something...
Then a lot of things actually happened.
Yeah, ever since Ichika showed up.
It was an incredible summer.
Yeah, after all,
we're up against the universe!
This is all I can do for you,
but I hope you will find the place where you belong.
Find your future.
When did I fall asleep?!
You can sleep for a while longer.
We're up now.
How about using my legs as a pillow?
No...
Cut the flirting out.
Huh? That's not what we're...
Yeah!
Ah!
What?!
I found it!
An undetected spot!
Yes!
Ichika!
Yeah!
Can you hear me, Ichika?
Sis?
The search team is near the planet.
Hurry and find...
Sis?
Ichika...
Rinon! Teleport us to that place at once!
Rinon?
What's wrong?
No way.
Linkage's anti-field is...
deployed on a planet-wide level?!
We can't be teleported?
What do we do?
It'll take 3 hours by train.
We've got pursuers, right?
We have to hurry!
What's this?
It's unmanned?
It's me.
Remon?!
I thought it might come in handy.
I'm glad I prepared a van.
I didn't know you have a driver's license.
Yes. I have quite a few.
A few of them? I didn't know you could...
What kind of people will come searching for you?
Probably a rescue pod like the last time.
Ichika, they can scan your biosignal to search for you, correct?
Yes, but why do you ask?
Cover this over you.
It will reduce the biosignal emitted by you.
And these devices will emit your biosignal when they're activated.
Remon, are these...
Yes. I got your sister to help us.
Sis...
All right! We'll head straight to the destina-
The van is breaking down!
I-Is that a...
It's a pursuer!
It's coming back!
Ishigaki.
Got it!
Me too!
I'll come with you!
Mio?
Let me come with you.
Tetsurou!
You'd better reach the destination!
Good luck!
Mio, turn the switch on!
Okay!
Come on, follow us!
Bingo!
Tetsurou!
Mio!
What is it?
Wanna go watch a movie next time?
Without Kai and Kanna.
Just the two of us!
Yes. Let's go!
Remon. Get on Highway 75.
Only a bit more than 10km left.
It's behind us!
It's still following us?!
I'll go.
Tanigawa?
I'm not doing it for you.
I'm doing it for the person I love!
I want the person I love... to be smiling!
Tanigawa?!
I'll make you regret to death in 3 years!
Have a happy ending... stupid Kai!
It seems like we lost the pursuer.
Kirishima.
Take this.
My camera?
What do we do with it?
Isn't it obvious?
We're going to film it.
Huh?
The heroine evades the enemy attack to reach the destination.
It seems like we can record a wonderful climax.
And epilogue is up to fate.
This is what makes movie production interesting.
I'm ready!
And... action!
Annoying drones.
W-What's up with this van?
tamerawanai de ieta no nara
If I told you to stop hesitating,
kimi wa mou nakanai no
would you stop crying?
kumo no katachi tsukinukeru
My feelings are burning into film
omoi no shoudou egaku
like it's piercing through clouds
tadayou manatsu no kaori ni nando mo omoidashiteru
The lingering summer scent still reminds me of you
dareka kureta kiseki dake
Only the miracle given to me by someone
yuudachi no you ni potsuri to
is starting to saturate in your color
iro ga shimidashite ita
like being soaked by a sudden shower
We'll Be Waiting That Summer.
Episode Twelve
We will never forget...
That special summer we all spent together.
No matter how much time were to pass,
we'll be waiting for you that summer.
