The Red Night―― it appears without warning.
Real, yet unreal. A dark world which exists in an alternate dimension.
The "Fragments", boys and girls who have been dragged inside, are being attacked by strange black knights.
Why them? Just what will happen?
Will an answer await them at the end of this nightmare?
歪んだ覚醒の中で 赤き夜が目を醒ませば
yuganda kakusei no naka de akaki yoru ga me wo samaseba
In the midst of a distorted awakening, the red night sky awakens.
黒き闇永遠の眠り 月影に怯えてる
kuroki yami towa no nemuri tsukikage ni obieteru
Darkness and eternal sleep are frightened by the moonlight.
炎が包み込んでく 世界を焼き尽くしても
honoo ga tsutsumikondeku subete wo yakidukushitemo
Even if everything is engulfed by flames, burning this world to a crisp,
祈りだけは絶やさずに 友と交わした明日のため
inori dake wa tayasazu ni tomo to kawashita asu no tame
I will never let my prayers be extinguished, for the sake of the promised future with my friends.
溢れる涙 連声に響け 忘却の剣へと
afureru namida renjou ni hibike boukyaku no tsurugi he to
Let this flood of tears and the echoes of our cries reach the blade of oblivion.
刹那さに溺れてゆく魂 浮遊して往く光
setsunasa ni oboreteyuku tamashii fuyuu shiteyuku hikari
Our spirits, these wandering lights, indulge in sadness.
空を切り裂いて
sora wo hirisaite
Split the sky.
此の世界 希望を抱いて逝こう
kono sekai kibou wo daite ikou
Let us embrace the hope of this world and move forward.
Even though his power finally awakened...
This happened because he used it without understanding its effects.
How stupid can he be?
Don't say it like that!
Kakeru-kun did it to save me.
Kakeru-kun!
Um... Wouldn't it be better to send him to the hospital, after all?
His entire nervous system was destroyed. It's a miracle he's still alive.
Even if we sent him to a hospital, there is nothing they could do.
Then Kakeru-senpai...
That's why I brought him here.
Eh?
I will cure him.
It'll be fine, Yuka-san.
Let's believe in Misuzu-san.
Initiate.
Why can't I be by his side?
Kakeru-kun...
Kukuri-san!
Thank goodness! You're fine, right?
Rin Pyou Tou Sha Kai Jin Retsu Zai Zen.
Here you go.
T-Thank you, Yukiko-chan.
It'll calm you down.
It's my fault.
I should have some kind of power too.
If I had awakened, Kakeru-kun wouldn't be in that state.
Hey, what are you talking about? It isn't your fault, Yuka-san.
No, I'm the one at fault.
Ah, where are you going?
To go see Kakeru-kun.
Misuzu-san said we're not allowed to bother her.
I know. I won't go inside.
This could be a problem...
Rin Pyou Tou Sha Kai Jin Retsu Zai Zen.
Kakeru-kun...
Hang in there!
Is it painful?
That is the power you seek.
The power of the Eye of Aeon.
The Eye of Aeon...
Just losing your life like this would be much easier for you.
I would just fall into a deep slumber once again.
But if you desire it...
...then live on.
I... won't die.
I can't die yet.
You can't die?
I have to protect Yuka.
I have to... protect...
You want to protect the one you love?
Do you really think you can?
I can!
You will experience despair...
You will loathe the indescribable feeling of loss, as well as your own uselessness.
Just as I did.
It's morning?
W-Why?
This is bad.
It still isn't over?
I'll just take a peek.
Are you alright?
Yeah, sorry.
You used your Onmyou power to save me?
Are you in pain?
I'm fine.
Is that so? I'm glad to hear that.
Senpai!
I'm fine.
Sorry you had to go through this for my sake...
I only increased your regenerative abilities.
Your own life force is what saved you.
It is very impressive that you were able to recover like this.
I... won't die.
I can't die yet!
I have to protect Yuka.
I'm going to go wash my face. When I get back, tell me about that eye of yours.
Okay.
Good morning. I overslept, as usual.
What is it?
I don't see anything.

That's priceless!
I see. You use that to communicate, eh?
Yes
Ah, Misuzu-san. Good morning!
Is it over?
Yeah.
Kakeru-senpai is okay, right?
Yeah, he's fine now.
As expected of Misuzu-san.
No breast attacks.
Putting that aside, was Kukuri-kun the one who made breakfast?
Did you bring it to the room, too?
Kukuri-san uses her sketchbook to communicate.
Yeah, I know.
It was Yuka-san
Now that you mention it, I just saw her in the hallway.
I said hello, but she didn't answer.
She seems to be thinking about something.
Yuka.
Good morning.
What is it?
It's nothing.
This is great, isn't it? Your body's fine now.
Yeah, it's all thanks to Misuzu-senpai.
That's great... really great.
Yuka, what's wrong? Did something happen?
No, nothing really.
It's alright. It wasn't that kind of thing.
It's fine, because I believe in Kakeru-kun.
Kakeru-kun wouldn't do something like that.
No, I'm telling the truth. There really was a cat with dog eyes!
I get it already.
Misuzu-san, you don't believe me, do you?
It really did have a pair of eyes just like this!
Are you ready?
Yes.
Alright, then let's go.
Hooray! I'm so happy that I'm going to school with everyone!
Again...
Yukiko-chan, you're bothering her.
Eh, really? You're happy, aren't you?
Well then, let's go.
Misu-senpai.
I'm fine.
Like I thought, it would be better if you rested today.
I'll sleep during class. Don't worry about it, Kakeru.
Yuka. Yuka!
Is something wrong with Yuka-san?
Yuka...
Say, Shiori-chan.
Reading while walking is really dangerous.
That's why you're here.
Please do a good job of being my eyes, and protect me.
Protect?
Then forget being your eyes, I should just hug you tightly and never let go!
Shiori-chi!
What are you going on about so early in the morning, idiot?
Ah, sorry, Shiori-chan.
You're cute with a red nose, too.
Kaori-san, please give him two more.
Understood.
Will this do?
I suppose we can let him off with this for now.
Ah, Yuka.
She ran off.
She didn't bring her bag.
It's Kakeru.
Kakeru!
What's with him?
He didn't bring his bag, either.
An unholy eye?
Yeah, that's what we call it in the Onmyoudou.
It can see the future, however...
...it is extremely difficult to control.
An eye of evil... also known as the Evil Eye.
Kakeru-senpai has an eye like that...
The one Kakeru has is called the Eye of Aeon.
Eh? The Eye of Aeon? Really?
You know about it?
I heard about it when I was little.
During the Middle Ages,
The king of Drasvenia possessed the Eye of Aeon.
What was his name?
I don't remember that much...
Velado.
Ah, that's it! You know a lot, Misuzu-san!
It seems that he appeared in Kakeru's dreams.
In his dreams?
Well? What became of the king in the end?
I believe he was tricked by a witch, the kingdom fell into ruins, then he took his own life.
A witch...
That couldn't be.
So is there any connection between that and Yuka-san's behavior?
No, that's something else.
Something else?
Yuka!
What's wrong?
What happened?
Nothing.
How could it possibly be nothing?
Talk to me. Did I do something wrong?
Misuzu-senpai...
Eh?
Kakeru-kun, you started calling Misuzu-san "Misuzu-senpai."
What about it?
Misuzu-san started calling you "Kakeru."
What are you talking about?
Isn't it weird?
Didn't you always call her "Kusakabe-senpai?"
Didn't she always call you "Kakeru-kun?"
Up until yesterday...
It's been different since this morning.
Hey, Yuka!
Snap out of it! I don't know what you're talking about.
I saw it!
That's not it! Yuka, you're getting the wrong idea.
Misuzu-senpai and I aren't like that...
You called her "Misuzu-senpai" again...
Yuka...
You don't believe me?!
Leave this city?
Yeah. I thought about it.
In Red Night, you can't see anything past Ayame Hills.
Maybe if we leave the city...
...we won't be pulled into Red night again, or something like that.
That's impossible.
Takahisa-senpai!
What do you mean, impossible?
I already tried it. I can't leave the city anymore.
What do you mean by that?
There's a wall.
A wall encircling the city.
A wall?
What wall? What are you talking about?
It has nothing to do with you, Saiko.
I'll decide that after I hear it.
Don't interfere with everything I do, you spinster!
Ouch.
You come with me for a second.
Hey! W-Wait!
No excuses!
Let me go!
A wall...
Kiss me.
Yuka...
I'm sorry.
I don't want to kiss you with feelings like this.
I...
Yuka!
It's coming, eh?
Red Night...
Show us what you're made of.
Leave it to me, Avaritia-sama.
Acedia, don't lay a hand on my prey.
Hmph, my target is the possessor of that eye.
Don't be careless, Acedia.
I'm different from Ira.
Yuka.
Yuka, where are you?!
Kakeru!
Senpai, Yuka is...
She isn't with you?
Kukuri-san's over here!
Alright, let's go search for Yuka.
Stay close, everyone!
Go ahead and call your friends!
But if you can, call some of the stronger ones.
We meet again.
Oh, so one of the small fry showed up.
I will surely repay you for what you did to my face.
I'll help you cook it up again today.
I won't let you die so easily. I'll make you pay for the pain you caused to my heart!
Nice to meet you... I suppose.
Why do you call us "Fragments?"
Why are you trying to kill us?
We have no reason to be fighting with you in this world!
You may not have a reason, but we do.
What do you mean?
How pitiful. You don't know anything.
Then how about you tell us?
Is it something that's hard to talk about?
Self-awareness during adversity will occasionally make people stronger.
If one starts feeling a sense of responsibility, they may become harder to deal with.
Oh? In other words, if you told us the truth, you guys wouldn't be able to win?
You are not going to make me talk.
But I will tell you one thing.
Your existence itself is a sin.
It's as if you're calling yourself an emissary of justice.
You all must disappear...
...for the sake of the future.
The future?
Kakeru, go! Leave this to me.
But Senpai, your body's still...
You want to protect Yuka, right?
Yukiko, Kukuri, please accompany him.
Okay.
I won't let you run away, possessor of the Eye of Aeon.
By the great law, I invoke the power of the Black Tortoise, who watches over us from the waters.
Don't get in my way, Fragment!
Water over fire!
Misuzu-senpai!
This is fine. Come, let me see the extent of your power.
Stop, Kakeru! You haven't completely recovered yet.
If you fight again, this time your body will really...
My body is wailing.
But I have to fight.
What's wrong? Is that all you've got?
Black Knight!
You weakling!
You bastard.
What...
Abraxas, eh?
Kukuri-san, you're amazing!
That's Kukuri's power?
Scholastica ran away, eh?
Hmph. Bonds, huh?
That power is indeed strong, however...
...it is fragile.
世界を崩すピースは とても軽く
sekai wo kuzusu piisu ha totemo karuku
The fragments of this destroyed world are very light.
日々を過ごす片隅 ずっと潜んでる
hibi wo sugosu katasumi zutto hisonderu
They pass each day in hidden corners, forever unseen.
差し出された諸刃に映るのは
sashi dasareta moro ha ni utsuru no wa
I now see the happiness in your eyes...
今は楽しげな君の目
ima wa tanoshige na kimi no me
...reflecting from that drawn double-edged sword.
守る者はただーつだけ そう 君さ
mamoru mono wa tada hitotsu dake sou kimi sa
You are the only one I wish to protect.
溢れ出す思いを あなた
afuredasu omoi wo anata
I will convey my overflowing thoughts to you.
贖罪の夜を 愛しくなる
shokuzai no yoru wo itoshikunaru
Even on this night of atonement, you've become beautiful.
どんな深い闇も 僕らをひとつに結ぶ
donna fukai yami mo bokura wo hitotsu ni musubu
No matter how dark it is, we will be united as one.
震えた手 二度と振り向かず
furueta te nidoto furimukazu
Never turn back, and say goodbye to those shaky hands.
僕らその明日のため
bokura sono asu no tame
For our tomorrow.
I believe ぎゅっと抱きしめた
I believe gyutto dakishimeta
While embracing you tightly, I will believe...
まだ見えぬその真実
madamienu sono shinjitsu
...this yet unseen truth.
Let's look in places where Yuka might have gone.
Okay.
It may already be too late.
Takahisa-senpai!
Ah, you're all beat up.
She was stronger than I expected.
She ran away, though.
You said it may be too late...
This is Yuka-san's...
Where did you find that?
Huh?
Where did you find it!?
At the infirmary.
Senpai!
The infirmary... it's completely destroyed.
Don't tell me...
Yuka...
Yuka!
Next Episode:
Distorted Awakening.
It would be nice to find an answer at the end of this nightmare.
Let's meet again in
「Red Night」 in the next episode
