Rolex: You...didn't take the pill.
Youta: Yes...
Youta: I took it... I have a power stronger than that
drug...
Do you want me to tell you what kind of power that
is... The word you hate...
Sound: Piku.
Sound: Ka.
Rolex: Shut up!
Sound: Bi.
<129>
Youta: Whatever you do is meaningless. I'm different than
before! I made up my mind to throw my life away
even!!
Youta: I! Won't!! Quit loving!!! Ai, anymore!
Rolex: Shut up!!
Sound: Ka.
Rolex: Such a thing like love is!! It's an illusion!!
<130>
Rolex: "Love" is a flowery word used to fill one's
desires... That's love! Humans are the animal who
love themselves the most. I can't forgive the
narcissist who talks about love.
Sound: Zuga.
Youta: Gu!
Don't you...envy?
Sound: Piku.
Sound: Su.
Rolex: I could calm down because you told me something so
stupid. Ai was almost going to end playing.
<131>
Rolex: I'll let you wake up from the illusion of "love."
You must be able to do that, because you're
pure-minded. You don't have to waste time being sad
or feeling pain, if you become more pure of mind and
know the life of love.
That's our goal.
Sound: Kachi:.
Sound: Wiiiiiin.
Ai: Kyaaa.
Youta: Ai!!
Sound: Ba.
Rolex: Fu.
<132>
Ai: Hello. I'm Ai Amano, sixteen years old. Nice to meet
you.
Sound: Niko.
<133>
Youta: Ai...
Youta: Ai-chan....
Ai: You look down...
<134>
Youta: He did such a horrible thing... I wasn't going to
lose, whatever happened...
I was thinking everything would start now...
Rolex: She was going to disappear in a few seconds. You
should thank me because you can be with her three
more months.
Youta: Ai-chan isn't here anymore....
Ai: Why are you so down?
Youta: I lost someone I loved.
Ai: Oh...
<135>
Ai: I might not be enough for you, but... I'll do my
best to comfort you.
Youta: Dammit... This is the end... It's the end, and a
waste of the efforts of the old man and Ai.
Youta: Is it impossible to beat him, no matter how much I
try...
Sound: Su.
Sound: Fuwa.
<136>
Ai: You can do whatever you want to me. I'll listen to
everything you, Moteuchi-kun, want.
Youta: I can't look at her... She looks like Ai-chan, but
her mind isn't Ai-chan's.
Youta: If the VCR hadn't been broken, Ai-chan would've been
like this... If it were that time, I might be happy
as well. I would give myself up to a moment of
pleasure, and after three months everything would go
back to normal, just like nothing happened... I
think then... Like he said, I might think love was
meaningless...
Youta: But...
Youta: Don't...
Ai: Eh? ...Don't you like kinky things?...
Ai: Then... What can I do for you? What would make you
happy?
Ai: Tell me anything, Moteuchi-kun.
<137>
Youta: I love you, Ai-chan... I will never forget you...
Ai: No...!!
<138>
Ai: Let me out of here!!
<139>
Moemi: Ai-chan!
Moemi: Do your best!! Ai-chan! Trust strongly in your
feeling of love towards Moteuchi-kun!!
<140>
Ai: Uu...
Moemi: Do your best! Ai-chan!!
Ai: U. U. U. U.
Sound: Zaki zaki zaki zaki.
<141>
Ai: Kuaaaaa!!
Youta: Ai.
Sound: Gata gata gata.
Youta: Ai-chan!!
<142>
Ai: I love you...too...Youta...
<143>
Youta: Ai...
Ai: U U U I!
Rolex: Oh... She's in trouble again... Then, I'll recover
her.
Youta: No, you can't. She's not yours anymore.
Youta: She just left from your hands now!
<144>
Sound: So.
Ai: Um...
Rolex: What are you doing!!
Youta: I'm going to break the VCR.
Rolex: Such an idiot! You can't see her anymore if you do
it!
Youta: That's right.
Rolex: Fu. Don't bluff me. You don't have the courage to
lose AI.
Youta: ...I'll teach you one thing.
Youta: That love is not only what you think it is!!
Sound: Ba.
<145>
Sound: Gasyan.
Rolex: Stupid!!
Sound: Bu bu bu bu.
Sound: Baka.
<146>
Rolex: What!?
Rolex: That old man's plot!!
Guaguwaa.
Rolex: Remember! Love doesn't exist in this world!! You
tried to protect your love, and Ai will disappear
soon. You know!
Meaningless!!
It's meaningless!!!
<147>
Rolex: Ha ha ha ha ha.
Sound: Van.
Youta: It's not meaningless...
<148>
Youta: She's disappearing... Finally...
Youta: Ai-chan!!
<149>
Ai: Youta... I...feel so good.
Youta: Oh yeah. That's good...
Ai: It's because of you and Moemi-chan.
Youta: Moemi-chan?
Ai: yeah... She encouraged me to do my best...
Youta: Oh yeah...
Ai: Hey, Youta...
Youta: Um?
Ai: You can kiss me...
<150>
Youta: Then... I will...
Ai: Yeah.
<151>
Narrator: Ai disappeared... They couldn't even say good-bye,
but with the strong bond of their deep love, holding
their hearts together, might have been satisfied
more than anything in the world.
Narrator: Ai's sparkle won't go back into the VCR and be
scattered like a small galaxy.
The beautiful sparkle... It is watching Youta,
warmly...warmly...
<152>
Youta: February 3rd.
Youta: Ai became a sparkle of light...
Youta: I hurt many people.
I hurt Nobuko-chan because I couldn't be devoted...
I hurt Moemi-chan because of my untrustworthy
kindness...
I hurt Takashi because I forgot about trust...
I will change. I think it's the only thing I can do,
as compensation to everyone...
I think I will change under Ai's spark...
