21.srt (DOWNLOAD SUBTITLES)
Inside every person lives a monster...
that would make even the host himself shudder with fear.
The race that failed to hide their internal monsters were driven...
to an underground purgatory.
He was born in that underground purgatory created by mankind.
More than anybody, he hated and loved the monster inside himself.
With his second mother...
he rose to the world of the race who had driven away his people.
When he reached there...
the above-ground world and its people were...
simply waiting for their slow deaths.
Above-ground was the world of the dead.
The human species...
and the world created by them, were in the twilight of life.
It was in this place where he met a ghost that he called his father.
Leaving his second mother...
who chose to remain in the world of the dead...
he came back to his birthplace, the underground purgatory.
For that is the world where he belongs.
Purgatory is the place where mankind must be in it's final moments.
The information an animal requires does not exist within its ecology.
It exists in the affordances of the environment, outside its ecology.
Ran.
Damn! The leg isn't functioning, either.
What's going on? Why doesn't it move?
Ichise.
What are you looking at, Theoria?
I won't be your oracle.
That's fine.
You're the Theoria created by this world, Lukuss.
Seeing is the only thing you're capable of.
What's going on?
It's you.
I chopped off my perfectly fine legs by myself...
and got texhnolyzed when I was still young.
I never thought they would stop functioning.
What happened here?
The daytime will soon be over in Lukuss.
We won't see the daylight ever again after that.
If the night goes on and on, the city folks' eyes change colors.
Just like our great-grandfathers who came here first.
That's why we have to keep this place daytime.
Y'know what I mean, right?
Why did you come back from the surface world?
Texhnolyzed limbs don't work here anymore.
What are you going back to the city for?
Lukuss has gone crazy.
Well, maybe it's just that it was crazy to begin with...
and only pretending to be sane.
Driven from surface-world...
our forefathers descended into this deep hole.
We, the people of Gabe...
assumed leadership for the exiles underground...
hoping to create a decent living environment for us all.
Oh, how many lives have been lost before that was achieved.
Yet, this place has become Hell.
Being already in Hell, where are we to go now when we die?
At the end of the day...
we who ain't got nothing to do with texhnolyzation are gonna win out.
Too true.
We're out of booze.
Wanna go get some more?
Where?
On the Hill.
Good idea, man.
Kill me...
Kill me!
Shut up.
You just wait, we'll screw you again later.
You should be dead, Organo!
I looked everywhere for you.
Please...
Kill me...
Let her die.
Let her die.
Are you telling me to do it?
You're Theoria, the one who sees.
Then why are you letting him hear your voice?
What are you trying to do?
Why do you want to kill the city?
Kill the city?
Killing it would be the same as killing myself.
What makes you think I'd do such a thing, sister?
I'm not your sister.
I can't tell you how things stand in the city now...
but it's not hard to guess from how it is here on the Mountain.
I don't know why you're going there...
but I guess it's because of the sense of duty you carry in your mind.
But you know, you could choose to stop carrying it around.
It is said that we, the underground exiles, have demons in our hearts.
Those who had killed and those who hadn't yet were...
all driven into this abyss.
Are we not human beings?
Are we not even worthy of living as human beings?
Those who lost their lives here are all thrown into this ravine...
to be reincarnated as Raffia flowers.
Is it the only meaning our lives and existence have?
Oh, are you welcoming me?
Will you forgive me for failing to protect the Seer?
Me, Hal, and this one other guy first started the Racan.
This guy Tomo.
He was a year older than me.
He was the first leader.
And there was another gang of kids besides the Racan.
When we were about to have a spectacle against them...
Tomo chickened out.
Spectacle after spectacle, after spectacle.
We beat the shit out of them every time, like you wouldn't believe.
Then we got tired of having spectacles against kids all the time...
so we decided to go kill the Organo guys in their suits.
But don't hold a grudge against me.
Now I'm gonna have a spectacle against the light on the hill...
since those Shapes have turned to crap.
What good is it to wipe out the Class?
I don't know, but I will when I'm done. Right?
You're gonna go save people's lives. And I'm gonna go kill people.
I thought doing exactly the opposite from you would be rather sweet.
Hey, those shit-heads in the city, the ones who're still alive...
how come they've all gone crazy like that?
We're the same as they.
Don't tell me you're serious.
City.
The voice of the city.
Is this city driving itself to insanity?
Do you want to drive everyone living here to insanity?
Just like your mind?
Theoria, what have you been seeing?
The people of Lukuss...
they're a group of homunculi that are eroding the inside of my head.
Ever since I was a little kid...
I always thought I would come and live here someday!
I was so naive I thought I'd be accepted into this light!
Funny, eh?
Laughable, eh?
Laugh!
I seriously believed that the people on the Hill must be magnificent!
Until I saw you, Kano!
This is the light?
So you're...
Raffia? So many...
You're gonna let me be one of you?
Are you satisfied?
The bloodline of my family has been continued by...
its men mating with their mothers and sisters.
It was all to bring me into the world...
I, the one who will become the brain of this world.
Therefore, it is no longer needed.
I too, am being driven insane.
I told what I saw to the people of this city...
and showed my power to them, but...
Ran.
Ran!
Ran...
I'm back.
Wait, Ran!
I felt affection toward these legs for the first time...
when they stopped functioning.
Are you still holding onto your sanity?
I don't know if I'm sane any more.
But if I am, what should I do?
City that has spoken to me all these years, please tell me.
I've been above-ground.
I met my father there.
It wasn't the kind of place I could live in...
but Ran, I want to take you there.
Above-ground nobody wants to kill anybody.
Why did you look after me?
Whenever I was in trouble...
I found flowers that I'd never been able to have before.
So what choice have I got? I have to protect you.
That's why I came back.
Ran!
Tell me. What would you have me do?
Kill me. I'm the one who drove this city insane.
So kill me.
That is your wish?
If the only way to be granted life in this world is...
to surrender my body and soul to insanity...
then I shall choose to meet my doom!
Onishi!!
A brilliantly white T-shirt
A rainbow on a splash of water
To have nothing, that was the happiness only you and I shared
Deeper than any other, I lost myself in you, heart and all
And I'm still here, looking only at you
If it's a dream forever lost, destroy it for me please
I can't forget you
I want to see you again
