Yui:
Hey, upperclassman!
Let me try my new move on you!
I call it the "Reverse Dual Cross Lock"!
Everyone:
One, two!
Yui:
You don't mind, right?
Hey, hey! My new move will make you go
Wham! and "Barn" and "Ka-boom!"
Ooyama:
Don't you think they're cute, Don't you Shiina?
Shiina:
This is so stupit.
Yui:
It's all-out, upperclassman!
Are you ignoring me?
For real?
Fine! I've had it!
I'm out of here.
Hinata:
Jeez, is this elementary school?
We're getting nothing but brats.
Naoi:
I'm sorry. But were you referring to me?
I am God!
Hinata:
Are you still going on about that?
And here you clung onto Otonashi
and cried like a baby.
Naoi:
Who did you say cried?
You'll be the one crying.
C'mon! Realize how useful clothes pins are.
Despair in your uselessness and
inferiority to the clothes pins.
Hinata:
Cl..Clothes pins...
pin things.
It keep clothes from falling and getting dirty!
They're wonderful!
They can even be used as paperclips!
They're so versatile!
Why am I in comparison to them?!
I'm not worthy to think of it!
Otonashi:
Look here.
Don't abuse your hypnotic abilities.
Hinata:
I'm not useful at all!
I can't pin anything!
I just exist!
Naoi:
Otonashi, good morning!
Otonashi:
What did you do to that poor guy?
Naoi:
He started it!
I was just trying to end things peacefully.
That's all.
God is innocent.
Hinata:
I'm worse than a clothes pin!
Otonashi:
How is that peaceful?
You made a grown man cry on his knees.
Yuri:
Otonashi, Naoi...
We need to talk.
Come with me for a moment.
Otonashi:
What is it?
Why'd you have us come here?
Yuri:
Naoi, I want you to help Otonashi regain his lost memories.
Naoi:
You dare order me around?
Who the heck do you think you are?!
Otonashi:
She's your leader; your boss.
Don't contradict her, just shut up and do which she tells you too.
Wait, my memories?!
Yuri:
That's right, your memories.
Naoi's hypnosis is the real deal.
I'm almost positive he should be able to jog your lost memories.
Naoi:
I see, If that is the case. I'd love to help him out.
Otonashi:
Hold your horses!
Don't do anything without my permission!
Yuri:
What's wrong?
Don't tell me you want to stay
an amnesiac forever.
Otonashi:
Oh, well...
of course I wanna remember,
so why do I feel so nervous?
What if my life here comes to an end
because of those memories?
I...
I really enjoy living together with everyone.
But can I continue as I have if I remember my past?
Is that even possible?
But still even so...
Yuri:
Otonashi?
Otonashi:
Y..Yeah, fine.
Naoi:
No matter your past,
don't lose sight of yourself.
Come what may, and whatever happends, I'll always be on your side.
Okay, please say something!
Yuri:
I'll still be your ally, so relax.
Otonashi:
Yeah, that's reassuring.
Naoi:
What's different between us?!
Fine, whatever!
All right. please sit down.
I'm going to start now.
Hatsune:
Bro, is school fun?
Otonashi:
Of course not.
I don't even go.
Hatsune:
You might have fun if you went.
Otonashi:
It might be fun if I was smart.
I'm stupid and that's no place for
someone who gets bad grades.
Hatsune:
Isn't studying fun?
Otonashi:
Of course not!
It's studying!
Hatsune:
What about friends?
Don't you play with all your friends?
Otonashi:
I prefer watching TV and
playing video games by myself.
I hate having to follow the crowd
and laugh at their lame jokes.
I can't stand having to pretend all the time.
It's exhausting.
I can't take it.
Hatsune:
Really? I can't wait to start studying.
I'm looking forward to making friends too!
Otonashi:
Oh, right.
Here.
Hatsune:
Thank you so much, bro!
Someone:
You stupid idiot!
Otonashi:
I don't know what it means to be alive
or have a meaningful life.
I'm not interested in others.
It's easier to go through life without
interacting with people.
My part-time job just gives me
enough money to eat.
That lifestyle was good enough for me.
No matter what,
I always went to visit my sister.
No matter how sick she got with the cancer.
I bought her manga magazines with
my meager spare change.
I always bought whatever was
stacked up at the book store,
so I'm not sure if I kept buying her
the same magazine or not.
It could have been different series each time,
so it never formed a cohesive story,
but even so...
Hatsune:
Thank you, bro.
Otonashi:
She would always say that.
I wonder what made her so happy?
My sister is different from me.
She has hope in life.
I'm sure she'll find a reason to live.
But she's spent the past
two years in the hospital.
Poor girl...
I wish I could trade places with her,
since I don't have any hope or purpose in life.
The pity I felt for her made me visit her.
I just felt so terrible about the cancer.
Then, winter came.
Although summer is tough,
working in the winter is a challenge.
My fingers feel like they'll break from the cold.
But I keep at it in order to survive.
To survive?
Why bother?
I can't think about that.
I might quit my job if I did.
I have to keep this up.
I need it to eat.
Besides, I need it to buy presents for my sister.
That's it!
I'll talk to her doctor about letting
me take her out on Christmas.
I wonder if wheelchairs work in the snow?
If not, I'll carry her.
I could carry her as far as she liked.
I'll take her shopping and
buy her anything she wants.
I'd like to treat her to a good cake
at a nice cafe too.
I better save up more money!
Where would you like to go on Christmas
if you could go anywhere?
Hatsune:
Downtown Main Street!
Otonashi:
You want to go there?
Hatsune:
You see, they light up all the trees!
Didn't you know?
Otonashi:
Nah, I've never been there during Christmas.
Hatsune:
I hear it's really pretty!
They just started doing it last year!
That's what my doctor told me.
Otonashi:
Then, let's go there.
Hatsune:
Do you think I can?
Otonashi:
I'll talk with them so you can!
If they still refuse, then I'll sneak you out.
Hatsune:
Really?
Otonashi:
Yeah, really.
Hatsune:
Yay! Thank you, bro!
Otonashi:
That was the biggest thank you
I had ever received.
Staff:
What are you doing?!
Otonashi:
S..Sorry!
I got a second part-time job.
Home was just a place to sleep.
I felt like I could work since I had a goal.
I only had one concern:
My sister's condition was
growing progressively worse.
Naturally, she wasn't given permission to leave.
So, I snuck into her room after visiting hours
and took her out on the town that night.
It's amazing!
Hey, can you see it? Isn't it great?
Hatsune:
Yeah, it's really pretty.
Otonashi:
Sure is! It's really pretty!
I'm glad I got to see it.
It's all thanks to you!
Well, the fun's just getting started.
First, let's get you a present.
I'll buy anything you like.
I've saved up a bunch of money for today.
I'll buy you anything you like,
no matter the price!
What do you want?
Should we enter some stores first?
We can even check out some jewelry stores!
Hatsune:
Bro...
Thank you.
Otonashi:
Oh!
I've got something exciting planned
when we finish shopping!
It's dinner!
I don't know much about it, but I made
reservations at a place I saw in a magazine.
They've got full-course meals!
Full-course meals!
Isn't that amazing?
I continued to carry on a one-sided
conversation as I walked.
Otonashi:
Well, I'll be leaving.
Cousin:
Are you going to live alone in that house?
Won't you get lonely?
Otonashi:
I'll be fine. I'm used to it.
Cousin:
Really? Are you sure you'll be all right?
Let me know if you ever need me for anything.
I'll cook for you whenever you like.
Otonashi:
Okay, thank you so much.
You've been a great help throughout all of this.
I had been living a life that was worthwhile.
My reason to live had been right next to me.
I just never noticed.
She kept me alive the way she would say "Thank you".
Her gratitude made me feel alive.
Just to see her so joyous and appreciative.
I was happy.
I'm such an idiot...
I can't believe I just realized that.
How selfish I was.
I never did anything for her even
though she was so dear to me!
She was always hospitalized.
She just read whatever manga I brought her.
That was all...
Was she happy...
when that was the entirety of her life?
And now I've lost her,
has my life come to an end?
I had been filled with happiness
I never knew I had.
But those times are over now.
I have nothing left...
Someone:
Thank you for caring for her.
Staff:
Congratulations on going home.
Kid:
Thank you so much!
Staff:
Take care now!
Otonashi:
I might be able to find something else
to make my life worthwhile.
I might be able to find another reason to live.
If I can dedicate my life to helping others...
Yuri:
Do you remember?
Otonashi:
Yeah...
Yuri:
I hope you don't mind.
But, it doesn't look like it was a very good life.
Otonashi:
I need some time alone.
I was apathetic and lived out of habit.
You gave me a reason to live.
Once I found it, I died while
working towards my dream.
I died before accomplishing anything.
That's not fair...
There's no way...
I can't pass on like this!
Hatsune!
Yuri:
Have you calmed down?
Otonashi:
Yeah.
Yuri:
It's normal for people's hearts to become
unstable after getting their memories back.
You're not the only one like this.
Otonashi:
I'm so weak...
I've come to respect how strong you are, Yuri.
Yuri:
That's not true.
So, has anything changed?
How you feel?
Do you think you can stay with the Battlefront?
Otonashi:
I'll stay with you.
I can't pass on like this.
Yuri:
Really? So, looks like now you have your
own goal to fight for.
Otonashi:
Yeah! Let's continue working together, OK?
Yuri:
What did you want to report?
Takamatsu:
We don't have enough lunch tickets
to get through the day.
Fujimaki:
What should we do?
Another Operation Tornado?
Yuri:
No, today's operation will be "Monster Stream"!
Matushita:
So it's come to that!
TK:
The carnival of despair!
Otonashi:
What type of operation is this?!
Are you telling me there's monsters?
Here in this world?!
Takamatsu:
Yeah, the Master of the River.
Otonashi:
The Master of the River?
Hinata:
Remember the river just within
walking distance?
We're going to collect food there.
Otonashi:
S..So we're just going fishing in a river?
Hinata:
Yeah, what's the mattar, you get a problem with that?
Otonashi:
Uh, no...
They made me imagine something stupid again.
Hinata:
Who will catch something this time?
Otonashi:
What are you doing over there?
Kanade:
Weeding and the like.
Otonashi:
L..l see...
You just...
Oh, yeah!
Hey! how about you come with us!
Everyone's going fishing in the river.
Otonashi:
The river?
It's against school rules to go down to the river.
It's dangerous.
Otonashi:
Who cares about that?
You aren't the Student Body President anymore,
so break some rules!
Kanade:
But I'm still a student.
Hinata:
Who the heck do you think
you're bringing with you?
Otonashi:
Why not! Lighten up!
Let her hang out with us!
Noda:
She's the enemy!
She's Battlefront's arch-nemesis!
Yui:
You're a moron!
Shiina:
This is so stupid.
Otonashi:
C'mon, she's harmless!
She isn't our enemy.
Noda:
But she's the former Student Body President!
Takamatsu:
But the current substitute president
is going with us.
Naoi:
Exactly.
But first and foremost, I am God.
Noda:
You ain't no God!
Hinata:
What should we do, Yurippe?
Yuri:
Well, she isn't the Student Body President anymore,
so why not?
Noda:
A..Are you sure about this?
Hinata:
We keep recruiting stranger
and stranger members.
Otonashi:
Come to think of it, why is
everyone so empty-handed?
Hinata:
We've already contacted the Guild,
so don't worry about it.
There's a fishing maniac down there.
Otonashi:
A maniac?
Who's he?
Hinata:
He's Saitou.
He's knowledgeable about guns,
but such a fishing maniac the Guild
calls him "Fishing Saitou."
He carries his wagon of fishing gear to the
surface when we conduct this operation.
Otonashi:
From all the way down there?
He must really love fishing.
Yui:
Basically, he's a moron.
Matushita:
Alrighty. Let's get started!
Otonashi:
I might have sided with you when I came here.
Kanade:
That's never happened before.
Otonashi:
But wouldn't it be cool if it did?
Kanade:
It's impossible.
If someone sided with me,
they disappear.
Otonashi:
Tachibana...
Non of us going to vanish, so it's okay to be our friend.
C'mon, let's fish with everyone.
Hinata:
Ow-ow-ow!
Kanade:
Now what do I do?
Hinata:
You hooked me! You're fishing me!
Otonashi:
No, no.
First, you need to put one of these lures
or some bait on the hook.
Don't slimy bugs bother you?
Kanade:
What's next?
Otonashi:
Face the river and fling the line
with all your might!
Hinata:
Takeyama!
Takeyama:
Christ!
Otonashi:
You know, I have to say you're super strong.
Kanade:
Because my Over Drive is passive.
Otonashi:
It's passive?
Fish Saito:
Just maybe...
Just maybe she might be able to pull this thing off.
Otonashi:
Pull what off?
Fish Saito:
Reel in the Master.
Just as the operation's name implies,
he's a monster.
Kanade:
Something's pulling the line.
Fish Saito:
It... It's Monster Stream!
Otonashi:
It is?! No way!
Fish Saito:
Monster Stream symbolizes the Master's anger.
Everyone flees whenever he shows himself.
But this girl just might...
Otonashi:
Are you seriously going for it?!
How big is this thingt?! The pole's gonna break!
Fish Saito:
Don't underestimate my expertise!
It was made to withstand the Master!
Otonashi:
Even so, this is impossible!
Hinata:
What? Is she reeling in the Master?
That's nuts...
Matushita the 5th!
I'll give you beef udon if you help them!
Matushita:
Sure thing!
Yui:
Whoa! Hina-kins, you're wide open!
Yippee! I'm gonna kick you
right between the legs!
Hinata:
Stop thinking up weird stuff and help!
Otonashi:
More! We need more help!
Noda:
What weaklings!
Yui:
C'mon, punks!
Pull that whale outta the water!
Everyone:
Heave-ho! Heave-ho!
Fish Saito:
Now!
Hinata:
We reeled it in!
Fujimaki:
It reeled us in!
Noda:
Who's the real monster here?
Ooyama:
This looks...
Takamatsu:
...really bad.
Matushita:
At this rate, we're going to fall into its mouth!
TK:
Crazy for you!
Naoi:
God never falls.
Shiina:
This is so stupid.
Everyone:
It's gonna eat us! We gonna die!
Kanade:
I must save them.
Fujimaki:
You know, we won't need to conduct
Operation Tornado for a while now.
Ooyama:
We have to eat it everyday?
Hinata:
We need to figure out how to preserve it.
Otonashi:
I'd hate to waste it...
I guess we're out of options.
Let's cook it all up and share it
with the regular students.
Hinata:
OK, sounds good!
Let's do that!
Hinata:
I feel like we're doing charity work.
Fujimaki:
We're more like a service group
than a battlefront.
Ooyama:
But we don't have anyone left to fight,
so maybe we'll stop being the Battlefront.
Fujimaki:
If that's the case, then, what will we become?
Ooyama:
The Really-Lazy-So-We-Don't-Vanish Team?
Fujimaki:
What's that?
TK:
Chop! Chop! Chop! Chop!
Otonashi:
I never thought a time like this would come.
Hey, Tachibana,
mind if I call you by your first name?
Kanade:
Why?
Otonashi:
Because we're closer now.
Kanade:
Are we?
Otonashi:
Of course we are!
We've been fishing together
and now we're cooking together.
Besides, I've thought your name was
pretty since I first heard it.
I love your name.
Kanade means to play a song, right?
Kanade:
You may call me that if you so wish.
Otonashi:
My name is Yuzuru.
It means "to tie instrument strings."
You may call me that.
So, Kanade, there's a favor I'd like to ask you.
Kanade:
What?
Otonashi:
Please stay here with everyone.
Kanade:
Why?
Otonashi:
I don't want you to fight us anymore.
I'd like you to have fun with everyone.
Also, you know, I want to be with you.
Kanade:
I see, I'll do that if it's what you want.
Otonashi:
It's a deal!
Kanade:
Year.
Fujimaki:
Hey, where's Yurippe?
Hinata:
Come to think of it, I haven't seen her.
Fujimaki:
She's probably watching us
from somewhere up high.
She's not the type to help out
with volunteer work.
Yui:
Hey, upperclassman!
Let me try my new move on you!
I call it the "Reverse Dual Cross Lock"!
Everyone:
One, two!
Yui:
You don't mind, right?
Hey, hey! My new move will make you go
Wham! and "Barn" and "Ka-boom!"
Ooyama:
Don't you think they're cute, Don't you Shiina?
Shiina:
This is so stupit.
Yui:
It's all-out, upperclassman!
Are you ignoring me?
For real?
Fine! I've had it!
I'm out of here.
Hinata:
Jeez, is this elementary school?
We're getting nothing but brats.
Naoi:
I'm sorry. But were you referring to me?
I am God!
Hinata:
Are you still going on about that?
And here you clung onto Otonashi
and cried like a baby.
Naoi:
Who did you say cried?
You'll be the one crying.
C'mon! Realize how useful clothes pins are.
Despair in your uselessness and

They're so versatile!

Look here.
Don't abuse your hypnotic abilities.
Hinata:
I'm not useful at all!
I can't pin anything!
I just exist!
Naoi:
Otonashi, good morning!
Otonashi:

I was just trying to end things peacefully.

I really enjoy living together with everyone.
But can I continue as I have if I remember my past?

I'm going to start now.
Hatsune:
Bro, is school fun?
Otonashi:
Of course not.
I don't even go.
Hatsune:
You might have fun if you went.
Otonashi:
It might be fun if I was smart.
I'm stupid and that's no place for
someone who gets bad grades.
Hatsune:
Isn't studying fun?
Otonashi:
Of course not!
It's studying!
Hatsune:
What about friends?
Don't you play with all your friends?

I can't take it.

I'm looking forward to making friends too!

Isn't that amazing?
I continued to carry on a one-sided
conversation as I walked.
Otonashi:
Well, I'll be leaving.
Cousin:
Are you going to live alone in that house?
Won't you get lonely?
Otonashi:
I'll be fine. I'm used to it.
Cousin:
Really? Are you sure you'll be all right?
Let me know if you ever need me for anything.
I'll cook for you whenever you like.
Otonashi:
Okay, thank you so much.
You've been a great help throughout all of this.
I had been living a life that was worthwhile.
My reason to live had been right next to me.
I just never noticed.
She kept me alive the way she would say "Thank you".
Her gratitude made me feel alive.
Just to see her so joyous and appreciative.
I was happy.
I'm such an idiot...
I can't believe I just realized that.
How selfish I was.
I never did anything for her even
though she was so dear to me!
She was always hospitalized.
She just read whatever manga I brought her.
That was all...
Was she happy...
when that was the entirety of her life?
And now I've lost her,
has my life come to an end?
I had been filled with happiness
I never knew I had.
But those times are over now.
I have nothing left...
Someone:
Thank you for caring for her.
Staff:
Congratulations on going home.
Kid:
Thank you so much!
Staff:
Take care now!
Otonashi:
I might be able to find something else
to make my life worthwhile.
I might be able to find another reason to live.
If I can dedicate my life to helping others...
Yuri:
Do you remember?
Otonashi:
Yeah...
Yuri:
I hope you don't mind.
But, it doesn't look like it was a very good life.
Otonashi:
I need some time alone.
I was apathetic and lived out of habit.
You gave me a reason to live.
Once I found it, I died while
working towards my dream.
I died before accomplishing anything.
That's not fair...
There's no way...
I can't pass on like this!
Hatsune!
Yuri:
Have you calmed down?
Otonashi:
Yeah.
Yuri:
It's normal for people's hearts to become
unstable after getting their memories back.
You're not the only one like this.
Otonashi:
I'm so weak...
I've come to respect how strong you are, Yuri.
Yuri:
That's not true.
So, has anything changed?
How you feel?
Do you think you can stay with the Battlefront?
Otonashi:
I'll stay with you.
I can't pass on like this.
Yuri:
Really? So, looks like now you have your
own goal to fight for.
Otonashi:
Yeah! Let's continue working together, OK?
Yuri:
What did you want to report?
Takamatsu:
We don't have enough lunch tickets
to get through the day.
Fujimaki:
What should we do?
Another Operation Tornado?
Yuri:
No, today's operation will be "Monster Stream"!
Matushita:
So it's come to that!
TK:
The carnival of despair!
Otonashi:
What type of operation is this?!
Are you telling me there's monsters?
Here in this world?!
Takamatsu:
Yeah, the Master of the River.
Otonashi:
The Master of the River?
Hinata:
Remember the river just within
walking distance?
We're going to collect food there.
Otonashi:
S..So we're just going fishing in a river?
Hinata:
Yeah, what's the mattar, you get a problem with that?
Otonashi:
Uh, no...
They made me imagine something stupid again.
Hinata:
Who will catch something this time?
Otonashi:
What are you doing over there?
Kanade:
Weeding and the like.
Otonashi:
L..l see...
You just...
Oh, yeah!
Hey! how about you come with us!
Everyone's going fishing in the river.
Otonashi:
The river?
It's against school rules to go down to the river.
It's dangerous.
Otonashi:
Who cares about that?
You aren't the Student Body President anymore,
so break some rules!
Kanade:
But I'm still a student.
Hinata:
Who the heck do you think
you're bringing with you?
Otonashi:
Why not! Lighten up!
Let her hang out with us!
Noda:
She's the enemy!
She's Battlefront's arch-nemesis!
Yui:
You're a moron!
Shiina:
This is so stupid.
Otonashi:
C'mon, she's harmless!
She isn't our enemy.
Noda:
But she's the former Student Body President!
Takamatsu:
But the current substitute president
is going with us.
Naoi:
Exactly.
But first and foremost, I am God.
Noda:
You ain't no God!
Hinata:
What should we do, Yurippe?
Yuri:
Well, she isn't the Student Body President anymore,
so why not?
Noda:
A..Are you sure about this?
Hinata:
We keep recruiting stranger
and stranger members.
Otonashi:
Come to think of it, why is
everyone so empty-handed?
Hinata:
We've already contacted the Guild,
so don't worry about it.
There's a fishing maniac down there.
Otonashi:
A maniac?
Who's he?
Hinata:
He's Saitou.
He's knowledgeable about guns,
but such a fishing maniac the Guild
calls him "Fishing Saitou."
He carries his wagon of fishing gear to the
surface when we conduct this operation.
Otonashi:
From all the way down there?
He must really love fishing.
Yui:
Basically, he's a moron.
Matushita:
Alrighty. Let's get started!
Otonashi:
I might have sided with you when I came here.
Kanade:
That's never happened before.
Otonashi:
But wouldn't it be cool if it did?
Kanade:
It's impossible.
If someone sided with me,
they disappear.
Otonashi:
Tachibana...
Non of us going to vanish, so it's okay to be our friend.
C'mon, let's fish with everyone.
Hinata:
Ow-ow-ow!
Kanade:
Now what do I do?
Hinata:
You hooked me! You're fishing me!
Otonashi:
No, no.
First, you need to put one of these lures
or some bait on the hook.
Don't slimy bugs bother you?
Kanade:
What's next?
Otonashi:
Face the river and fling the line
with all your might!
Hinata:
Takeyama!
Takeyama:
Christ!
Otonashi:
You know, I have to say you're super strong.
Kanade:
Because my Over Drive is passive.
Otonashi:
It's passive?
Fish Saito:
Just maybe...
Just maybe she might be able to pull this thing off.
Otonashi:
Pull what off?
Fish Saito:
Reel in the Master.
Just as the operation's name implies,
he's a monster.
Kanade:
Something's pulling the line.
Fish Saito:
It... It's Monster Stream!
Otonashi:
It is?! No way!
Fish Saito:
Monster Stream symbolizes the Master's anger.
Everyone flees whenever he shows himself.
But this girl just might...
Otonashi:
Are you seriously going for it?!
How big is this thingt?! The pole's gonna break!
Fish Saito:
Don't underestimate my expertise!
It was made to withstand the Master!
Otonashi:
Even so, this is impossible!
Hinata:
What? Is she reeling in the Master?
That's nuts...
Matushita the 5th!
I'll give you beef udon if you help them!
Matushita:
Sure thing!
Yui:
Whoa! Hina-kins, you're wide open!
Yippee! I'm gonna kick you
right between the legs!
Hinata:
Stop thinking up weird stuff and help!
Otonashi:
More! We need more help!
Noda:
What weaklings!
Yui:
C'mon, punks!
Pull that whale outta the water!
Everyone:
Heave-ho! Heave-ho!
Fish Saito:
Now!
Hinata:
We reeled it in!
Fujimaki:
It reeled us in!
Noda:
Who's the real monster here?
Ooyama:
This looks...
Takamatsu:
...really bad.
Matushita:
At this rate, we're going to fall into its mouth!
TK:
Crazy for you!
Naoi:
God never falls.
Shiina:
This is so stupid.
Everyone:
It's gonna eat us! We gonna die!
Kanade:
I must save them.
Fujimaki:
You know, we won't need to conduct
Operation Tornado for a while now.
Ooyama:
We have to eat it everyday?
Hinata:
We need to figure out how to preserve it.
Otonashi:
I'd hate to waste it...
I guess we're out of options.
Let's cook it all up and share it
with the regular students.
Hinata:
OK, sounds good!
Let's do that!
Hinata:
I feel like we're doing charity work.
Fujimaki:
We're more like a service group
than a battlefront.
Ooyama:
But we don't have anyone left to fight,
so maybe we'll stop being the Battlefront.
Fujimaki:
If that's the case, then, what will we become?
Ooyama:
The Really-Lazy-So-We-Don't-Vanish Team?
Fujimaki:
What's that?
TK:
Chop! Chop! Chop! Chop!
Otonashi:
I never thought a time like this would come.
Hey, Tachibana,
mind if I call you by your first name?
Kanade:
Why?
Otonashi:
Because we're closer now.
Kanade:
Are we?
Otonashi:
Of course we are!
We've been fishing together
and now we're cooking together.
Besides, I've thought your name was
pretty since I first heard it.
I love your name.
Kanade means to play a song, right?
Kanade:
You may call me that if you so wish.
Otonashi:
My name is Yuzuru.
It means "to tie instrument strings."
You may call me that.
So, Kanade, there's a favor I'd like to ask you.
Kanade:
What?
Otonashi:
Please stay here with everyone.
Kanade:
Why?
Otonashi:
I don't want you to fight us anymore.
I'd like you to have fun with everyone.
Also, you know, I want to be with you.
Kanade:
I see, I'll do that if it's what you want.
Otonashi:
It's a deal!
Kanade:
Year.
Fujimaki:
Hey, where's Yurippe?
Hinata:
Come to think of it, I haven't seen her.
Fujimaki:
She's probably watching us
from somewhere up high.
She's not the type to help out
with volunteer work.
Now, get your butt in gear!
Hinata:
Yurippe!
Noda:
Yurippe, who did this to you?
Yuri:
Angel did...
Otonashi:
Angel?!
Wait, but Kanade's been with me the whole time!
Angel?!
