Tight!
You're gonna squeeze lunch right out of me!
With the way you run around, girl, it'll fall right off if I don't make tight.
Hey Sis.
If you spot me out there, pretend you don't know me, okay?
Same to you, twerp!
W-What the heck?!
You got a problem?
Would you stop squirming around? No fighting, you two!
I... won't get hurt.
That girl... Her hatred scares me.
Still, I really want to be friends with Takanashi.
All done, princess!
And then...
we'll go see the multicolored world together!
BlackWRock Shooter
How much longer do I have to shout?
How much longer do I have to cry?
Stop now, I can't run anymore
The world I dreamed of one day closes to me
On this dark and cracked road, without the faintest light
I felt like I saw the rays of hope
emanating from my past
Why?
Black Rock Shooter, what fond memories
I recall my times of happiness
Black Rock Shooter, but I can't act
I wish upon the stars soaring through the darkness
because I will run one more time
The Sky Embracing Dawn
Episode Two
Oh, Kuroi.
I thought you couldn't make it.
It worked out in the end...
Who are you going with?
With uh... Takanashi.
Well, see you.
Still not here?
Blue.
I've been standing here for two hours, what happened? Did something come up? Please reply.
Orange.
We can get a better view from over there!
Purple.
Takanashi Yomi
I'm sorry.
Takanashi Yomi
I'm sorry.
Takanashi Yomi
I'm sorry.
Takanashi Yomi
I'm sorry.
Takanashi Yomi
I'm sorry.
Takanashi Yomi
I'm sorry.
I've only gotten two messages from Takanashi.
Both of them said the same thing:
"I'm sorry."
It hurts...
There'll be someone who'll help you bear the pain.
No matter how much it seems to hurt,
it's all just a trick of the mind.
That's a lie.
A lie.
When it hurts this much...
That girl's barefoot!
Look at this guy!
He's getting eaten by ants!
What a loser!
His guts are gross!
You won't even let me send texts.
Didn't you just send one?
In any case, she wouldn't have waited for you.
I don't want to eat it.
Eat it.
I wanted to go.
What?
I wanted to go to the festival.
What are you talking about?
I couldn't go, so neither could you.
I can't take this anymore!
Don't cry.
It's fine.
So...
Strip.
Let me do something to cheer you up.
I'll carve for you.
Help me...
Help me!
Help... me...
Too funny!
So Endo even came to the festival.
I know, right!
Even though Yamauchi was there too!
Oh crap.
Let's hurry.
H-Hey!
Takanashi. That wound...
Don't look.
I'm sorry...
Why aren't you angry?
Why aren't you angry that I didn't go to the festival?
Do you want me to be angry?
If you want me to be angry, I can be angry.
Because I waited all that time.
I told you...
I told you from the get-go this wasn't going to work.
You befit your name well, "no hawks".
You're no playful little bird.
I wanted to believe you were a little bird, Takanashi.
The little bird that would take me to a multicolored world!
But you aren't a playful little bird.
You aren't a little bird at all!
Because you're stuck in a cage!
We should be able to go to that multicolored world!
Something's wrong with that!
It's completely messed up!
Takanashi is a coward!
Morning Glory Consultation Office
Oh, hello Kuroi.
Yuu?
This is a nice place, eh?
Here's your coffee, Yuu.
With five lumps of sugar.
Thanks for remembering.
What about your classes?
I could ask you the same.
Strange.
So she really has the heart you saw in your dream?
Weird story.
Did you know?
The dreams of close friends are connected.
Connected?
Yes. Your dreams can communicate things which your mouth can not.
Communicating through dreams...
Perhaps Takanashi
wants you to understand them?
I'm...
Kuroi!
Where are you going?
Kagari...
Why are you...
Kagari has been at Yomi's place all day today.
Waiting for you to come home.
And now you're leaving again?
Kagari?
I'll fall you know.
Kagari!
If I fall from here,
you won't be forgiven.
Kagari, stop!
If I die, you won't be forgiven.
Because you will die, as well.
St-Stop!
Takanashi!
What happened, Takanashi?!
Takanashi!
You're...
It seems she just sprained her wrist.
Kagari's parents will be coming.
So don't worry. You can go home.
I'm not leaving without Yomi.
Yomi needs to take care of Kagari.
Take care?
Why does she have to be hospitalized for a mere sprained wrist?
It's what Kagari wanted.
Why...?
Kagami has loved Yomi ever since they were little.
Due to my husband's job, we were forced to live abroad for a few years.
No!
Kagari... Oh no!
Don't go, Yomi!
Yomi!
That's why her legs...
Not a single doctor could figure out what was wrong with her legs.
More than just her legs, her mind was affected as well.
Now I can't move my arms, either.
Kagari...
You'll have to do everything, Yomi.
Feed me.
Help me go to the bathroom.
You will do everything for me.
Without Yomi, Kagari is helpless.
Why does Yomi need sacrifice herself for her?
There's something wrong about that.
I know.
But I feel sorry for Kagari...
What about Yomi, then?
Kuroi...
Isn't Yomi worth worrying about, too?
Takanashi!
Open the door! Please!
Kuroi?
That bitch! What's she doing here?!
Kuroi, please go home.
No!
I'm not leaving without you!
Shut up!
Go away!
You bitch!
Yomi is mine!
It's her fault I'm like this.
It's her fault I'm like this!
Why are you smiling?
I'm... smiling?
Why am I smiling?
Go home.
Are you happy...
that she called you by your first name?!
Is that why you're smiling?
You bitch!
Kagari...
Yomi! Yomi!
Shut up!
You fucking—
Open up! Yomi!
Shut up! Shut up!
Shut up!
I don't understand...
Would it be so terrible for me not to be at your side?
Yes. Damn right it would!
What should I...
What should I do?
Go home.
It's my fault...
I've done something unforgivable to Kagari.
I feel sorry for Kagari!
But I want to be your friend.
What should I do?
Please tell me, Kuro—
Mato!
Don't feel sorry for her!
Eh?
I pity her because everyone else feels sorry for her.
Treating her like some porcelain doll... How contemptful!
How dare you pity me, you bitch!
I see...
Yomi?
I was scared.
It's my fault you've been getting increasingly unstable...
I'm too scared of making it even worse,
so I just obeyed your every command.
In the end, it was all for my sake.
Kagari.
What?
Let's get out of here.
What?!
Stop locking yourself up at home.
Go to school like a normal girl!
Forget the wheelchair, too.
You gotta be kidding me, four-eyed freak.
No more being alone.
I'm done moving houses.
Even if I go out... Even if I become friends with Mato...
I swear I won't let you be alone!
I'll look at you straight in the eyes!
I won't run away from you!
So, let's leave this place.
Right now, together.
I can't...
We must get out of here.
If you stay... things will remain the same forever!
No...
Kaga—
No!
I'm not leaving because...
Because I'm scared to leave!
No!
Kagari?
Kagari, what's wrong?
Are you okay?
No! Kagari!
Yomi? What happened? Is Kagari...
Yomi?
W-What happened?
You want to be somebody else,
but there's no way that could happen
If you feel sorry for yourself
a different side of you hidden deep inside
will tell you what to do
Some things are just the way they are
Everybody has troubles, everybody struggles
We complain
and grumble
and pass the days doing that
We're used to being hurt, but we know
you can't survive on feelings of kindness alone
But one day, we'll want to be who we truly are
and walk down that path as always
