△Key ※4
That League of Darkness lady…
She said somethin’ weird when she had me at gunpoint.
She said I was the one who had this key in the first place.
But none of this is ringin’ a bell..
…Can't figure this out.
△League of Darkness※8
That was weird…
Why’d I think Fuyusaka looked like that League of Darkness lady?
I’m not seein’ things, right?
ア01
Tomi Kisaragi:
I guess when you put it like that…
Maybe you've got a point.
I should slow down and think a little…
Still, though…
…
Hey, are you even listening?
Nenji Ogata:
…I’m back.
It’s happening all over again…
ア02
△Key→Tomi Kisaragi
Nenji Ogata:
Hey, Kisaragi, you don’t have some kinda key handy, right?
Tomi Kisaragi:
What does that even mean?
I have the key to my house?
Nenji Ogata:
Is this it…?
Nah, probably not…
I mean, hell, even I’ve got some housekeys…
ア06
×Tomi Kisaragi
Tomi Kisaragi:
You're acting kinda weird.
Nenji Ogata:
Yeah, it’s really getting’ to me.
…I’m already sick of all this shit…
But… what can I do?
ア07
Tomi Kisaragi:
Hey, where are you going?
ア08
×Tomi Kisaragi
Tomi Kisaragi:
Hey, uh…
You don’t look so good.
ア09
Tomi Kisaragi:
Seriously…
You're being really weird.

Yo…
Iori Fuyusaka:
Ogata-kun…
ア18
Tomi Kisaragi:
What are you doing!?
Iori Fuyusaka:

Tomi Kisaragi:
You trying to pick on Iori now?
Nenji Ogata:
Please, Kisaragi.
Just relax for a sec.
Tomi Kisaragi:
What!?
Nenji Ogata:
I’m beggin’ you here!
ア19
△Key→Iori Fuyusaka:
Nenji Ogata:
I mean the key.
You told me somethin’ like I used to carry this key, right?
Iori Fuyusaka:
Ogata-kun, I'm really not sure I follow…
Nenji Ogata:
Ah, dammit. I gotta figure out how to say this right…
Okay, so you haven't said it yet, but you're going to tell me soon…
You know what I'm sayin’, right?
I just wanna know what it all means.
Iori Fuyusaka:
I really don’t know what you're talking about…
Nenji Ogata:
Man, this shit’s so hard to explain…
ア20
△League of Darkness→Iori Fuyusaka
Nenji Ogata:
So that League of Darkness version of you… I mean…
Okay, what’s your connection to that black catsuit lady?
Iori Fuyusaka:
League of… Darkness…?
What are you talking about?
Nenji Ogata:
Dammit, I sound like a total loon…
ア21
×Iori Fuyusaka:
Nenji Ogata:
Fuyusaka… that wasn’t some magic trick, right?
Iori Fuyusaka:
Um…
What do you mean?
ア22
×Iori Fuyusaka:
Nenji Ogata:
Anyway, I mean… that kinda thing ain’t normal, right?
It was some trick, yeah?
Iori Fuyusaka:
Uh…
ア23
×Iori Fuyusaka:
Nenji Ogata:
You know, when the adult version of you talked to me.
She said I had the key right?
Iori Fuyusaka:
The adult…
Me?
Nenji Ogata:
Come on, Fuyusaka, you gotta know…
Iori Fuyusaka:
…
Tomi Kisaragi:
Come on…
Isn't that enough?
ア24
ア25
ア26
Tomi Kisaragi:
The train’s leaving soon.
ア27

×Ryoko Shinonome
Nenji Ogata:
Hey, it’s Shinonome-senpai.
You're here too…?
Tomi Kisaragi:
Shinonome-senpai.
Ryoko Shinonome:
…
ア41
×Ryoko Shinonome
Nenji Ogata:
Hey…
You okay?
Ryoko Shinonome:
I have to go…
ア42
△Key→Ryoko Shinonome
Nenji Ogata:
Senpai… You don’t have some kinda key on you, right?
Though I guess it’s not really a normal key? Probably…?
Ryoko Shinonome:
…
Nenji Ogata:
Man, how do I say this…
ア43
×Ryoko Shinonome:
Ryoko Shinonome:
A key…?
Nenji Ogata:
Yeah, a key.
Ryoko Shinonome:
…
Tomi Kisaragi:
Shouldn’t we call someone over?
Nenji Ogata:
Someone like who?
Tomi Kisaragi:
Like… a station worker?
Nenji Ogata:
Nah, waste of time.
Tomi Kisaragi:
Why’s that?
Nenji Ogata:
It’s just gonna throw us back to the beginning.
Tomi Kisaragi:
Hey… what’s going on with you?
ア44
ア45
Nenji Ogata:
Something’s up…
Do I go after her?
×Get in
Tomi Kisaragi:
Hey, that’s the wrong train!
5:06 PM | Tsutsuji-Bound Train | Train Car
ア01
Nenji Ogata:
H-Hey, what happened!?
ア02
×Ryoko Shinonome:
Nenji Ogata:
Shinonome-senpai! Are you okay!?
Musta been her symptoms again. Looks like she passed out….
ア03
×Examine
Nenji Ogata:
This guy, too…
I know him…
It’s Sekigahara. From back in the ruined city.
Why’s he with her? Why’re they both knocked out?
…The hell happened here?
Somethin’ in his hand…
D-D-4-2-6? This some kinda medicine?
Label’s not tellin’ me much…
Tetsuya Ida:
That’s poison.
ア04
×???
Tetsuya Ida:
It was meant to poison the D-forces. They ended up as collateral damage.
Nenji Ogata:
What’re you talkin’ about, old man…?
Tetsuya Ida:
It sounds like you know about Shinonome-kun’s condition.
So you should already understand.
The symptoms she endures come from that poison.
Their nanomachines are infected. They're beyond saving.
But even with all their sacrifices…
They cannot stop the D-forces’ attack.
ア05
×???
Nenji Ogata:
You keep talkin’ about these “D” guys…
That’s all the big mecha kaiju, right?
Tetsuya Ida:
A living apocalypse.
Born in our future. Crossing time to destroy us.
It all comes down to fifteen teenagers.
The “commanders” of the D-forces.
Nenji Ogata-kun…
It is a curse. One we cannot escape.
ア06
×???
Nenji Ogata:
Where’s this weird shit comin’ from?
Who even are you?
Tetsuya Ida:
It doesn’t matter anymore. I'm just a man in the past now.
But it was never the kaiju.
The problem, the true blot on this world, was always the D-forces’ creator.
…It’s us.
Mankind was the cancer all along.
