According to the Coil data,
in the beginning, the Null Carrier
was a radar device that collected pieces of souls.
That girl wanted to summon Miss Michiko!
Is that true, Yasako?
Um, I don't really know.
Do you remember the Loophole Nexus you used to talk about, Mayumi?
I'd like you to tell me how to get there.
After all this time?
I really need to know.
My friend's life is in danger.
Is she really your friend?
Aren't you just pretending to be her friend, like you did with me?
Mayumi...
Back then, you said, "I don't want to know."
You ignored me, like everybody else did.
I remember you said, "You'll be cursed by Miss Michiko."
I was frightened.
That's why...
You're always like that!
You're a goody two-shoes on the surface,
but you have no problem abandoning friends!
I know all about it!
I always, always hated that about you.
You started out kind, but you didn't help me when I was in trouble.
So I worked it out myself somehow.
You should do the same.
I guess Aunty's mad at me.
Here!
This is the direction Yasako went.
Anyway,
Aunty's glasses are kinda quirky...
I'm sorry to be such a quirky woman!
Stop underestimating me.
I certainly don't need more than three minutes to locate my own hardware.
Yasako wants to go to that manhole place.
If I don't stop her...
She'll end up like you did last time, huh?
If we change this transmission node, it will become more accurate.
Aunty?
Yasako found some kind of hint on her own.
All we can do is follow her.
I can't hear it.
I don't know the way anymore.
So I worked it out myself somehow.
You should do the same.
It's like Mayumi says.
It hurts...
At the source of this pain, I'll find my answer.
Fog!
I didn't know there was a Coil system in Kanazawa too!
If Okonogi manages to bring Amasawa back,
I won't be able to maintain the Space anymore.
We gotta get rid of her ASAP.
Brother, she's not involved in this at all.
Don't do anything bad to her!
Yeah, I know.
The passage!
This is the one Mayumi saw!
The device ID has been recognized.
Doctor Okonogi, do you want to access the test area?
Doctor Okonogi?
Doctor Okonogi was in charge of Isako's treatment when she lost consciousness.
He wanted to pass on his knowledge of cyberspace, and to make it understandable.
However, he didn't expect anything like this to happen.
Most likely, each Null started out as a means of transportion called a Null Carrier.
A Null Carrier?
In the beginning, it was an instrument to extract data from "the other side."
But, after further elaboration, it became a method
for sending consciousness to "the other side," exploiting the Dennou Coil phenomenon.
The accidents that have occurred up till now are the result of abandoned Null and passages going wild.
But if we use them the right way, maybe...
it'll be possible to enter the passage,
just like those wild Null.
You mean, Yasako wants to...
Coil established a Nexus for experimental use in a private domain,
taking the name from an existing geographic feature.
That's what the Loophole Nexus is.
It's where Coil's head office was located in Kanazawa.
It should still be there.
And probably, the passage as well.
We're almost there!
Yasako!
Too late!
Null?
It's all right. It's a regular Null.
This girl has just entered, hasn't she?
Doctor Okonogi has logged into the experimental area.
As I thought!
I'm going!
Null! Touch me!
The device ID doesn't match.
You can only enter with Coil glasses.
2.0!
So they intend to destroy it from the inside?!
Damn it! I've got no choice.
Even if I leave a record of my passage, all I can do is to enter by force.
What's this all about?
The head office has started to act.
In that case...
Tama, chase Yasako.
Me Satchii!
The head office doesn't want to reveal the existence of Imago and Dennou Coil to the public.
So...
They intend to destroy the core of it.
With Yasako inside.
That can't be!
Crap! Too late!
I've taken over control.
Now, you erase the traces.
Two units have entered.
If only I could dispose of that kid somehow...
Brother...
Aunty! Yasako is inside.
Calm down.
I'll try connecting to Tama's panel.
Good.
Somehow, I managed to arrange it.
Now, where's that kid?
Damn... The sensors don't work properly!
B-Brother, let's stop this.
That girl is...
Shut up!
If you don't stop bothering me, I'll seal that mouth of yours!
It hurts...
Gotcha!
Crap! How impudent!
Takeru! Try a manual restore!
O-Okay, brother.
Satchii?
It's me, Haraken!
Eh?
Yasako, can you hear me?
Aunty!
Good, it worked.
Why is Tama...
My account was deleted,
but Ken's back door wasn't discovered.
Yasako, it's me!
Haraken! Thank goodness.
You finally woke up.
Yup.
There's no need to worry about me anymore.
We're flying...
I added various functions when I took it out.
Although as an adult, I'll end up having to pay for this.
But,
where should we go?
Where am I?
Brother...
Right,
at the top of these stairs...
You're there, aren't you!
Brother!
Yuko.
Look.
Mom made these!
These two dolls are my brother and me.
So, don't forget about me!
I sure won't.
And you too, Yuko, don't forget about me.
Sometimes, I'm afraid of Mama.
She hits me.
You mustn't cry, Isako.
Isako?
Yup, it's your secret code name.
Yuko's "Yu" stands for "isamashii," courageous.
Hence, Isako.
It's a secret code name, so only I can call you that.
Then what's your secret name?
Let me see...
I'm 4-4-2-3.
4-4-2-3?
Well, it's about time to depart.
Let's go play upstairs.
Yeah!
Brother!
Yasako!
What's wrong?
My chest...
My heart hurts.
Amasawa...
Is that you, Amasawa?
You mustn't falter.
You must go straight on, Yuko.
Welcome back, Yuko.
Brother!
That direction...
Tama, go that way!
Yasako! Did you learn something?
I'm sure...
I'm sure I'll find Amasawa over there.
In the direction of the pain I feel in my heart.
The direction the pain is coming from?
I don't really know why,
but the kirabug Amasawa gave me...
The encode in my chest tells me so.
I don't know what will happen.
But I'm the only one who can save Amasawa now.
Yasako...
If I stop believing I can save Amasawa,
she really won't be able to come back anymore.
I'm the only one...
I understand, Yasako.
Haraken...
But promise me
that you'll definitely come back.
That you'll definitely come back with Amasawa.
Okay, I promise.
Hurry up, Tama.
Geez...
It's hard being your guardian.
But, I wonder if there really is a way out.
This sensation...
Are these Amasawa's feelings?
These kinda sad, lonely...
Yasako, I got a reply to the ping!
Down there!
A town.
A deserted town.
This is...
Daikoku City?
Run, Yasako!
You sure give me a lot of trouble, Tamako.
I'll have you arrested straight away.
However,
first I'll let you see the difference between my skills and that crappy piece of junk.
Yasako!
This damn outdated stuff!
Tama?
Tama!
At this point, with the limited format...
Crap!
She got away.
Takeru...
Did you do something?
Yasako...
You tried to kill her just now, right?
It's for Dad and Mom.
Dad developed the Imago,
and was the first person in the world to channel concentrated human consciousness into cyberspace.
And despite that,
Megamass stole his discovery and got rid of us like garbage!
Our entire family!
So,
in order to save our sick mother, we must reclaim our father's honor!
You know that too, don't you?!
This world was about to disappear.
It was destined
to crumble here and now,
and your brother and I to die.
But,
that person saved us.
That person?
Sosuke.
He taught me what I had to do to save this world.
I'll get my revenge.
I'll tear Megamass to shreds!
That's why I need Michiko.
What do you... intend to do?
I'll use that bitch
to make all the kids in the world lose consciousness.
But that's awful!
I must control that Space.
That's why I gave Yuko to Michiko.
I'll make it seem like it's all Megamass' fault.
And that will be the end of them!
Brother...
I...
I can't help you anymore!
Wait, Takeru!
You fool! Don't you want to take revenge for Dad?
Of all things, I wonder what this Space could possibly be...
I have to tell you something about this.
You're Dr. Okonogi's wife, aren't you?
We met once, at the funeral.
But you don't have to worry about anything.
Don't worry about why this Space is here,
or why it was created.
I don't know either.
But if you will just live here happily, with your brother,
this world will be saved.
Forever.
They're here...
The stairs with torii!
Brother, you'll always stay with me, won't you?
Yes, always.
What's wrong?
I don't know.
Amasawa!
No, Yuko.
Someone is... calling me.
You're just hearing things.
No!
You don't have to listen to it, Yuko.
That voice will devastate your happiness.
You're there, aren't you?
Amasawa! Answer!
Who...
Who is it?
Yuko.
Yuko,
where are you going?
If this Space collapses, your brother will die.
Yuko,
you have to protect this world.
That girl
intends to destroy this world, where you can live happily with your brother.
Why such...
Look at this, Yuko.
See why you hate that girl.
The reason why you should reject her.
In fact, you weren't the only one to receive a name.
Just like he gave you a name, he gave one to that other girl, too. "Yasako".
Stop it!
That girl stole your dear brother from you.
Your fear that your brother would be taken away...
Your hatred for that girl...
I was born from those feelings.
I remember.
This is the only world that can protect you.
And she's trying to destroy it.
I won't let her...
do anything like that!
Who is it?
Don't come here!
Amasawa!
Amasawa, let's go back!
If we go now, we'll make it in time!
Go away!
This is the only place where I can possibly live now!
If I go back, I'll be nothing more than the stupid kid who killed her brother!
Amasawa!
No!
I will live here with my brother.
Forever.
Don't come any closer!
I HATE YOU!
That's right.
You must hate that girl, Yuko.
Who...
Who are you?
Amasawa, you don't have to listen to that girl!
Go away!
The Coil Domain is...
collapsing!
Yasako!
It's for the best.
It's what you wished for, Yuko.
Let's live here together.
The three of us, forever.
Something...
has gone wrong.
It wasn't like this.
The link has been disconnected.
How terrible! And the Space?
I don't know.
But at present, the link is completely disconnected.
So what will become of Yasako?
The link to Yasako is disconnected too.
Yasako!
Yasako! Open your eyes!
It's a present from Grandpa.
How sad.
Just as his granddaughter had come to visit.
How cute!
I love you so much!
Poop!
Densuke...
What can we do?
I got lost.
I already passed by here.
These are my memories.
I'm looking at my memories!
This is the...
Null Carrier
from back then?
I remember.
That time...
I was with my brother, and...
Yuko.
We were about to disappear.
Right.
Everything should have disappeared at that time.
You don't need to remember.
Brother?
Soon I won't be able to be your brother anymore.
From now on, you'll have to learn how to live without me.
Brother! I don't want to be separated from you!
I remember!
I had to part from my brother forever!
But...
That height...
Maybe...
What are you looking for?
4-4-2-3...
Huh?
4-4-2-3.
Your brother?
TL note: 2-3 are read as ni-san and pronounced like nii-san, "brother."
I'm looking for 4-4-2-3.
Yes,
with the Coil cure I can treat 4-4-2-3...
The link hasn't reconnected yet.
If it keeps on like this...
Mega-baa, any clues?
Hmm, I'm in Isako's hospital room right now.
What?
Isako's uncle called me.
I'm accessing all the data right now.
Nobuhiko Amasawa?
TL note: 2-2 are read as ni-ni and pronounced like nii-nii, affectionate "brother."
4-4-2-2?
What does this mean?
And what's more, the date of his death is shown
as immediately after the accident!
This is... 4-4-2-3's clinical record!
It's about Isako's brother, Nobuhiko Amasawa, huh.
Not at all!
I didn't notice either.
Look at the patient's name.
The name?
4-4-2-3 is that boy?
No.
I'm looking for 4-4-2-3,
Amasawa Yuko.
Amasawa... Yuko?
Yeah, 4-4-2-3 is...
none other than Isako herself!
Next time
on Dennou Coil:
The last episode...
Yasako and Isako.
See you next time!
