02x05 - Rift

[bunniefuu]

Ghouls have taken the lives of many people,

and they have upset the fate of me, and all of you.

They will continue to take many others from us.

I'd like you to drill that into your minds,

as you press forward in your training each day.

And with that, this lecture is concluded.

Investigator Amon...

Go on, Shizuku.

U-Um, can even women become fine investigators?

Like you are, Investigator Amon?

Yeah. I look forward to the coming day when we can work together,

Kawakami Shizuku, Yasuhisa Kurona, and Nashiro.

People die so easily, don't they?

Mm-hmm.

Rei...

Hmm?

Oh, Nashiro and Kurona. Good evening.

You didn't come to Shizuku's funeral, huh?

Aren't you sad?

What for?

She only d*ed, right?

Don't say it like that. It feels wrong.

How is it any different from eating, and playing with her?

Rei, if that's supposed to be a joke, then laugh.

You're starting to bother me!

A joke? What do you mean, a joke?

Rei!

Somewhere, lots of people are dying, all the time.

She's just one of them, right?

This is just like a class reunion, huh?

Rei!

It's Juzo now!

Why did you two become ghouls?

Shut up! You'll find out, in time!

To even change your name so they could make use of you...

CCG really is insane!

Uh-oh...

Don't think badly of us, Rei.

Nor of me.

Please don't think ill of me.

Kurona!

I'm all right.

It will heal.

It will heal?

Will there be enough... time?

I had a dream

It was of the time we were born

We lived such a beautiful life

in a city of wombs

We clapped our hands and smiled

We drank the paint dry

The colors of the rainbow changed

We started wanting to be held

I couldn't walk alone anymore

We smiled at each other

We gave our love to toys

I wish we could destroy

the untouchable children using simple words!

The prost*tute spat fire

In a faraway city, somebody d*ed

He's fast, but...

Damn it...

Does it hurt?

Please enjoy it another forty-five times!

Gotcha!

I've messed up a lot of ghouls, now,

so I have a pretty good idea of how much it takes...

to take you apart.

You're what's become of Rei?

Next, I'll take apart what's precious to you, Ghoul Kurona.

Rei!

Well, well...

Shiro, no!

Gotcha!

You're what's precious to Kurona!

My Arata's movements are sluggish.

Why?

Shiro!

Ku... ro...

Next is Kurona!

Kurona...

Leave me... and run...

Huh?

What would make the two of them become ghouls?

The guards have all been wiped out!

Takizawa, please stay back.

Huh?

Hoji...

It's been a long time.

I see. So you are a member of Aogiri, too.

I want Fei and Yan back.

Unfortunately...

I can no longer... do that.

The boy reached out his hand, and said, "Be my friend."

Godot smiled happily,

"Godot's Snow"

and shook his hand back. The end.

Again!

Huh?

Me too, me too!

All right.

Good night,

Touka... Ayato...

Dad...

He's fast.

And what kind of kagune is that?

Incomplete though it may be, this ghoul is...

It couldn't be... A kakuja?!

Reinforcements should be rushing in here any moment.

If we join up with the main force...

Akira!

Are you okay?

Yeah.

You're...!

Hey!

Ghouls...

Let's keep moving.

Yasuhisa Kurona... and Nashiro?

Humans, becoming ghouls? That can't be right.

I'd say it's about time.

You outdo my Arata, huh? Even so...!

You're mine!

I still have lots of quality time left to spend with my family.

M-My fingers... on the bench...

C-Centipedes... i-in my ears...

How many kagune sacs does this guy have?!

A thousand minus...

A-A thousand minus...

s-seven...

Of all the ghouls I've ever faced...

...seven is what...?

...you're the craziest one yet.

I've got you covered!

Fei's kagune...

Takizawa, get back!

He's your man, is he?

CRC gas, eh?

CRC gas. I guess that's all for Aogiri.

Thanks.

What's wrong, Investigator Amon?

What was that?

Eyepatch?

Eyepatch!

Eyepatch! I wanted to speak with you!

Why... did you not k*ll me... back then?!

That night,

you were crying.

Was that... a lie?!

I thought that I could get an answer from you...

as to why I wasn't k*lled.

You, the one who let me go!

That's all, right? An ordinary ghoul is all you are, right?

That's all, right?!

I... don't want to eat anymore...

Investigator Amon!

The one-eyed...

...Owl!

Owl?!

Eyepatch...

The seasons die off, one by one

The sounds of their demise take to the wind

A sober man in a bustling city

It's too unromantic to look up at the moon here

It's as though I'm living as a translucent shadow,

unsure if I can still call who I am me

Will the clouds part if I sing in the rain?

I'm a dried-up life amidst a boisterous summer

Salutations; this is a break-up verse

to my loathsome past

I'm filled with lament and wracked with grief,

but though the sun may not shine

my song still goes on

The seasons come back to life, one by one

"Next time: 'Thousand Paths'"
