01x10 - Where the Tears Go

[bunniefuu]

Aya! Nanaka!

SOUTH THEME PARK

-This is the place.
-It's an amusement park.

Where are they?

Aya! Nanaka!

Metropoliman, I'm here as requested!

He was the...

Aya! Nanaka! They're alive!

Aya! Nanaka! I'm here!

Is this a magic mirror?
I'm going to save you two now.

No, Mr. Mukaido!

He fell into the trap.

That's hilarious.
He fell into the trap so easily.

The hostages are indeed effective baits.

Once he entered, he can't escape now!

This is the best park facility
for hunting god candidates.

It's so hilarious.

Is he connected to Metropoliman?

If he's a god candidate,
he'd be dead already.

If that's true, he's an ordinary person
who had been shot with a Red Arrow.

I can't sh**t a Red Arrow at him.

But... I can only give it a go.

Aya! Nanaka! Are you two all right?

Are you in love with other men besides me?

What are you talking about
at such a moment?

Do you love me?

I love you.

-Great. You're not shot by an arrow.
-Love?

What do you mean?

She said she loves him.

What is... love?

Hey!

White...

Mirai... A White Arrow...

Release the three of them!

Or else, I'll sh**t!

A coward who can't use
a White Arrow won't do...

That was close!

He's really something.

I get it now.

He foresaw that if the opponent knew
he had White Arrows,

the opponent would definitely escape.

Regardless of how he used it,
he has finally shot a White Arrow.

Great!

Mr. Mukaido, can you hear me?

I need to strain my ears to hear you!

I don't even know where the opponent
is hiding in this place!

I can't ensure everybody's safety!
It's bad for us!

As I'd thought.

Nanato, what's the g*n for?

What exactly is going on?

Dad.

Sorry for dragging you two into this.

Even if we manage to escape,

I still can't fly away
with both of them in my embrace.

Damn. At this rate,

I'm just a useless father
and god candidate.

Hajime, in ten seconds,
get your angel to follow you,

20 meters north of the house,
appear 20 meters above in the sky.

Got it.

Metropoliman.

What's the matter?

I've lured him into the box.
Please accept me as your servant.

All right. I'll show you that I can
follow through on my word.

Angel? He's actually a god candidate.

Watch your back!

Metropoliman.

Metropoliman in the flesh...

I feel so happy.

He's a god candidate.

But Metropoliman shot him
with Red Arrow instead of k*lling him.

The game was over
when Mukaido stepped into the box.

Even if the worst happens,
we can k*ll him.

Okay. Shall I sh**t it?

What's going on out there?

It will be over if Mr. Mukaido
is shot by a White Arrow.

Run. I don't want to fight you anymore.

Are you planning to fight me?

It's two against one now.

It's useless to rely on persistence
and luck alone like what you did before.

You'd better run.

At least you'll be saved.

I don't want...

I don't want anyone to die.

I won't let them die.

He went in!

Mr. Mukaido.

Please embrace your wife
and fly at a speed invisible to the eyes.

Leave your daughter to me.

Why did you come in?

To live.

Right now, there is only one way
for us not to get k*lled.

I can't see them now.

This is solved then.

I just have to wait
until they are exhausted from flying.

What a fool.

Then, why did Mukaido...

It's probably due to family love.

Family love?

What is family love?

What's going on?
Why do I keep feeling irritated?

No. If I panic before Metropoliman...

I think you said that
you'd be happy if I'm dead.

You've asked your partner
to k*ll me, right?

Now, that partner of yours
will die sooner or later.

That's hilarious.

What is it?

I know angels can't interfere directly,
but you can't even say anything today?

Well, Hajime.

Notify me when they stop flying.

I'll sh**t White Arrows at them then.

Are you leaving?

Of course.

I don't need to wait for them
to stop flying here.

And it's rather scary to be with you.

Even if you sh**t me with an arrow?

No matter what,
I have to consider all possibilities.

So I can't blindly stay
with a god candidate.

You are indeed Metropoliman.

I'll count on you then.

Do you have any strategies?

No, I don't.

No?

It's more important to survive first.
We can't do anything if we die.

We still have to find a way to escape...

Well...

If this goes on, I'm not sure
how long my body can stand it.

As long as we're alive, we must do
everything within our capabilities.

How long can they hang in there?

They really don't have any strategies.

If he hadn't entered the box,
he could have survived.

I wonder how much time has gone by...

I've lost the sense of time.

We can't keep flying forever.

We'll eventually need to stop.
What should we do?

Is there any good solution?

It will be fine. Don't be afraid.

I'll give it a try.

Mr. Mukaido, we might be able
to get out of here.

Metropoliman, someone in there
just said they might be able to escape.

Stop panicking.

It's impossible to escape it.

I'll tell you the method now.

Wait! They will hear us.

If we could be heard,
it would be easier to understand it.

After we manage to escape,
they won't be able to hear what we say.

Not even your wife's and Nanaka's voices.

You're right.

Got it. Let's get out of here!

Let's go!

This might be interesting.

Under this circumstance, the only ones
who can tell that they are really inside

are us, their accompanying angels.

Have they escaped? I didn't feel anything.

They pretend to have escaped
by keeping silent.

What a childish strategy.

I see.

In other words, they are forced
to make this move.

That's right. Listen up.

No matter what happens
before they are k*lled,

do not clarify whether
they are really inside or not.

In short, don't open it.

Okay.

ANGEL TOOLS CAN'T BE SEEN
BY HUMANS WHO ARE NOT GOD CANDIDATES

Metropoliman.

-What is it?
-It's been half a day since they got in.

Are they really still inside the box?

So you think we're being fooled
by them if we believe that?

Do you dare defy my orders?

I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me.

Metropoliman!

-What is it?
-I don't see their angels around.

This is...

To make us believe
they are not inside the box.

The angels assist them too, don't they?

Yes. I just wanted to report it to you.

I can't tell what's on Balta's mind.

He doesn't care at all,
even if we fly away.

He knows we're just right here
but he won't come to find us.

Metropoliman.

There you go again. What is it?

It's an airtight enclosure.
It should be very hot.

They haven't drunk any water
for a long time, and they keep flying.

Aren't they incredible?

Since they will die if they stop,
they will definitely give it their all.

I want to take some rest.

Notify me when they stop flying
or when there are any changes.

Do you hear me?

Yes.

Hajime Sokotani.

Although I've anticipated this,

I didn't expect he'd be this useless.

My brain is going to explode.

Saki, have you been up all night
waiting for them?

They haven't returned.

Mr. Mukaido and his family.

Kakehashi. They're still alive, right?

They must be fighting hard now.

But I...

But...

You can't fight without wings!

I can't help any of them.

Saki, don't worry.

I'll work hard
to become a first-rank angel.

Thank you, Revel.

But I've had enough.

I want to get to them.

Saki...

I can still fight without wings.

No, Saki.

You are behaving the same as before.

You've lost your confidence
because you feel useless.

And intend to take the wrong action.

But if this goes on...

I understand because
I'm experiencing the same too.

As long as I become a first-rank angel,

I can give you wings and hope.

It's due to my worthlessness.

Revel...

I'm sorry, Saki.

I'm a useless angel.

Revel.

Tears?

How strange...

Angels don't shed tears.

Only humans shed tears for others.

This is mentioned in the heaven books.

This is...

Damn. My sight is getting blurry.

My consciousness is almost...

I guess this is it...

It would take a miracle now...

Aya.

Nanaka.

I'm sorry.

It's quite ironic.

I was put into this situation
after being caught by an angel.

Yet, I'm asking God for help.

Revel.

Revel.

God?

You have shed tears.

Yes.

Since I've shed tears,

I'm not qualified to be an angel.

It's just a matter
of not having a precedent.

No such angel existed before.

You are the first angel
who shed tears for humans.

You are an angel who understands
and empathizes with human emotions.

Human emotions?

From now on, you are a first-rank angel.

So claim it.

Angel of Emotion, Revel.

Angel of Emotion...

I've become a first-rank angel.

Take this, Saki.

-Revel.
-Saki, let's go.

Let's save Mirai and the rest.

Saki!

Revel, you did it!

Baret, what's the current situation?

Well...

Everyone seems to be here.

Balta.

Revel, you've been promoted
to the first-rank.

Congratulations.

Here comes another nasty scum.

Angel of Intuition, Balta,
what exactly are you planning to do?

I will decide what action to take
based on my intuition.

And based on it,

the newcomer holds the key to everything.

What do you mean?

It means you just need to act
according to your own wishes.

I...

Saki.

He must have been shot
by Metropoliman's Red Arrow.

You'll be exposed.

It's fine, Saki. Try sh**ting at him.

But stay away from the cameras
because Metropoliman is monitoring us.

Are they still in there?
Or have they escaped?

How so...

Camera detection app. Activate.

Okay. What will happen next?

There are three cameras.
The distance is 29,2 meters.

So this is... family love?

I'm in a blind spot from where he is.

I can do this.

So annoying!

Got him!

It's settled.

I was shot. By whom?

By... whom?

This emotion is...

This emotion is...

Like...

That girl with cat ears, I like...

I... like her!

Metropoliman...

No. I am Metropoliman's servant.

I must serve under Metropoliman...

Metropoliman!

That voice is...

What was that?

I am Metropoliman's servant.

But...

But... that girl.

I'm gradually falling for that girl.

Could something be happening outside?

No. It's more advantageous
if they wait silently.

If they've taken action, they must've
found a way to take our lives.

Damn.

There must be... a chance.

I'm sorry.

Aya. Nanaka.

I'm sorry.

I'm very happy

to be able to die
before my beloved family.

There is no greater happiness than that.

Think about it.
Didn't the oldies say so too?

"You must not die before me."

"Even if it's only for a day." And so on.

It might be a little self-centered
but it's true...

I won't be blinded
by your charm and accept that.

Is that right?

Promise me, Nanato.

Promise?

I'm going to die soon anyway.
I don't have the will to quit smoking.

Don't give up.

I want them to see it.

I want Nanaka and our unborn child

to see that their father is not giving up...

until his final moment.

I can't die in here.

Everyone will be k*lled if I fall.

I can't die like this!

What is it, Hajime?

Why aren't you talking?

I've told you to notify me

only when they stop flying
or when something happens.

What is it?

Servant... I am Metropoliman's servant.

Report... The truth is...

So adorable!

I must make him like me.

So I must show my love to him.

What's going on, Hajime?

I love her.

Love? I actually said it?

This is... love.

Love...

Love!
