I... killed her.
The little bird's feathers have become dirty.
The girl I killed looked just like Yomi.
I can't fly anymore.
I...
Black Rock Shooter, where have you gone?
Can you hear me?
Just how much louder do I have to shout?
Just how much more do I have to cry?
Stop it please, I can't run anymore.
The gates of the world I once dreamed of are closing.
On this dark, broken road without a shard of light,
Suddenly, I felt I found a hope that shouldn't have been there.
Oh, why?
Black Rock Shooter, all those dear memories.
I remember those fun times.
Black Rock Shooter, but I can't act anymore.
I wish upon the stars soaring through the darkness,
Because I will run one more time.
Episode 6 A Hope That Shouldn't Have Been There
Huh?
Mato... It must have been hard.
Mato... You did well.
Mato... Come back.
Mato... Mato!
Mato! Mato!
Mato!
Why? Black Rock Shooter...
Saya...
What should I do?!
What the hell have you done?!
If these girls have to endure great mental burdens,
then the girls in the other world will lose what little humanity they have left.
Their true powers will awaken.
I put a lot of mental stress on Takanashi in order to awaken Dead Master.
And you...
Black Rock Shooter...
I didn't think Mato could get trapped in there.
I thought that if she made contact with that world...
If Black Rock Shooter awakened,
that alone might be enough.
But why?!
Black Rock Shooter will destroy that world!
Can you imagine what would happen to her then?!
But it's so hard for everyone like this!
Even you!
I don't matter.
Saya...
Now that it's come to this...
If I kill Kuroi here and now...
W-Wait!
I can't do that.
She didn't do anything wrong!
How could I do it?!
Kuroi is locked inside Black Rock Shooter.
Saya?
I'll try to talk her there.
Maybe if a voice reaches her...
You stay here!
B-But...!
Keep in mind that Kuroi isn't the one that I want to protect the most.
It's that girl.
It hurts.
It's painful.
It hurts.
It's painful.
It hurts.
It's painful.
It hurts.
It's painful.
It hurts.
It's painful.
Kuroi!
Please, Kuroi!
Please, Kuroi, hear my voice!
You're Kuroi, aren't you?
Please, let me reach you!
I met that girl.
Our story started that summer day.
So hot!
Hey, what happened?
W-Wait!
Come to my place.
Just come.
There, have some.
It's okay. Go on.
Do we have any ice cream?
That's Kotari's daughter from block three, right?
You know her?
You must have heard about them too.
After all...
Both in school and at home,
Yuu has gone through hardships
that someone like me couldn't even imagine.
But she endured it.
She locked all the pain in her small body.
Hi there!
I just couldn't leave her alone.
You're really strong, Yuu.
Strong?
Yeah. I throw fits about stuff that doesn't matter at all.
You're really amazing. I look up to you.
It's not me.
There's another girl.
Whenever I'm bullied or something painful happens,
another girl comes out,
and takes on all the pain instead.
So it doesn't hurt me that much.
I thought I couldn't leave her alone.
If I could do something for her...
If I could understand just a bit of her pain...
Come on, this is noodle sauce, not barley tea!
Saya, Yuu's house...!
Yuu!
I came to the conclusion
that Yuu set fire to it.
She took revenge on the ones who put her through all that.
You think I did this, don't you?
Yuu?
Come on, get in the ambulance.
Yuu!
No!
Sorry!
I don't think that, Yuu!
I...
Yuu!
The cause of the fire
was a cigarette that Yuu's stepfather had forgotten to put out.
I couldn't forget that smile.
What could I do to make it up to her?
What...
Yuu!
Wait!
Yuu, I'm sorry.
You have it wrong.
I wanted to be your friend all this time.
Please forgive me!
I'll do anything.
Please.
There is no world more painful than this one.
Yuu?
What were you thinking of just now?
I won't do anything weird.
I don't like pain.
But I was wondering whether or not I should make her take all my pain.
H-Hey, what's wrong?
You'll do anything for me? Anything I ask?
Yes.
Then...
protect me.
"Protect"?
Say your name.
Saya.
No.
Your other name.
My other name?
Yes.
You are...
Black Gold Saw.
Wake up, Kuroi!
Please!
Saya!
How'd it go?
She... protected me.
That girl...
But why?
I did something horrible.
And yet...
Don't worry.
She forgave you.
I couldn't do anything.
Don't worry.
I had a duty to protect that world.
Don't worry about it.
I don't understand it.
It's okay.
Saya...
I'm sorry, Saya.
I'm sorry, Mato.
Right now...
You're in pain right now, aren't you?
It's hard right now, isn't it?
I'm sorry, Mato.
I'm sorry, Black Rock Shooter.
I forced my wish upon you.
It hurts, it's hard, but now I understand.
I've been forcing my pain onto another girl.
Another you is always fighting.
She shoulders all of your grief and suffering.
And in the course of the fighting, that other you will eventually be annihilated.
The reason the girl with the blue eye fights and hurts everyone
is to save us from our grief.
But...
That's wrong.
You want to become someone else,
but of course that's impossible.
When you're anxious,
the other you,
who lives in your heart will tell you
Yomi...
Yes?
that no one can live straightforward,
Something wrong, Kagari?
Sort of.
I don't really get it.
and we all struggle with our problems.
But she seems cheerful.
We all complain.
we all grumble,

and our days pass like that.

We got used to being hurt and we know
