Renya Gouto… Why you gotta do this to me?

Like what, I'm supposed to go to class and pretend everything’s normal?

Well, it’s not. This place is 40 years old.

イ02

×School girls

Those girls over there…

They look about my age, but…

Back home, they must be in their 50s…

It’s too weird.

イ03

Sorry for making you wait, Miwa-chan…

Iori-chan! Where were you?

There was a bed available in the nurse’s office, so I took a nap.

You skipped 6th period for that?

I didn’t really mean to, but yeah…

When I woke up, class was already over.

I messed up…

That’s the girl who sits behind me in class.

Must be nice…

Oh well.

No point feeling sorry for myself.

Time to check out the library!

I need to find some dirt on Shikishima.

But geez…

Not having a smartphone is suffering.

イ04

Oh!

イ05

×Megumi Yakushiji

Megumi, wait!

Tomi…

So you're here too.

I'm so glad you're okay!

イ06

×Megumi Yakushiji

Megumi… What happened to our city?

You were there, right? You stayed back.

Well…

My mom and dad… they're fine, right?

Gouto’s just making things up. Tell me it’s all a big lie.

…

It has to be… Right?

イ07

×Megumi Yakushiji

Hey, that guy who just walked by…

That’s Izumi, right?

He's in my class here, so I've seen him around.

But when I talk to him, he's like a totally different person.

He's all nervous and stuff. It’s weird.

Did something happen?

…

As a result of battle, he…

He lost his memories.

Huh!?

イ08

×Megumi Yakushiji

Like… he hit his head? It’ll all come back, right?

No. they said it was permanent.

No way…

So he really is a different person at this point.

Does that mean he doesn’t remember you?

…

What now? Are we supposed to just give up on him?

I could never, ever do that!

I’ll never… give up on him…

I can't…

I'm sorry.

Megumi… I'm so sorry.
