01x05 - Canopus

Post by bunniefuu »

[alarm beeps]

[Ganta sighs]

[Isaki] Let's make a promise.

If the weather

clears up at night,

we'll meet each other on

the beach under the stars.

[bag zips]

[cloth swishes]

[Ganta's father groans, snores]

[Ganta] I'm heading out.

[opening theme]

[relaxed, upbeat music]

[KUYO HIGH SCHOOL,

BOUND FOR CHIRIHAMA]

I heard the hot spring

at camp is a Gensen

-with 100% pure water.

-Yeah?

What makes a Gensen different

from a regular onsen?

Dunno. Potency?

[Kanikawa] If you ask me,

it doesn't really matter

whether it's stronger or weaker.

[both] Hm?

[Kanikawa sighs]

Camping totally sucks.

Wow, you're still complaining.

Why would anybody

sleep outside on purpose?

They're basically forcing us

to live like cave people

by making fires and stuff.

[Nono laughs]

Well, I think the idea of

sleeping under the stars

is pretty exciting.

Yeah, me too.

We get to build a fire.

Come on, we live

in the 21st century.

Sleeping is for fluffy beds

and fire should just come

from a push of a button.

The forest is chirping

with crickets at night,

and a campfire adds ambiance.

Whatever.

Have fun roasting crickets

on your stupid fire.

I gotta say, it does really suck

that we can't touch our phones

at all until we get back home.

Mhm, mhm.

Yeah, totally.

How are we supposed to k*ll time

trapped in the stupid forest?

I mean, it's three whole days!

Huh?

I don't want my arms

to get all swole!

Hey, I've got an idea.

Let's play a game.

[Kanikawa] A game?

It's fun.

It's a silly game

about pronunciation.

Pronounce the letters T-W-A.

[Kanikawa] Played it.

[Isaki gasps]

[Isaki] Oh man, do all of

you guys already know it?

[Haida] Dude, try

saying "roast" 10 times.

[boy] Roast, roast, roast,

roast, roast, roast, roast,

roast, roast, roast.

[Haida] What do you

put in a toaster?

[boy] Toast!

[Haida]

No, you put in bread, stupid!

[Haida laughs]

[boy] Oh, dammit!

You totally fell for it, bro!

Hey, Nakamicchi,

do me a favor, man,

and say the word "silk"

10 times in a row, okay?

Then you ask him

what cows drink, right?

Not cool!

Don't just ruin

the joke, dumbass!

Hey, Nakamicchi, can we fish

for octopuses at this camp?

Hey, Nakamicchi,

go to the teachers

and ask them if we can

have some "updog" for lunch.

Hey, Nakamicchi!

[Ganta breathes deeply]

[footsteps]

Hey, Nakamicchi.

[Ganta groans]

We're here, bruh.

[upbeat music]

[students chattering]

Groups that finish their tents

should go to the cookhouse

and start making curry

for dinner!

There's no time to goof around.

Oh yeah!

[Haida] Here, take this!

Ow, don't throw actual

pitches at me, Haida!

[Haida] I quit the

baseball team, remember?

Get ready for my curve ball!

-[boy] Ow!

-[Isaki] Whoa!

Now it looks like a legit tent.

[Nono] Hey, Isaki?

We still have this

pole leftover.

What do you think it's for?

Ah! Th-that's weird.

[Isaki groans]

[Nono laughs] Oh well.

[Anamizu groans]

[Kanikawa panting]

[Anamizu] Hey, Kani,

is this enough firewood?

[Kanikawa] Yep, thank you.

You can just split the rest of

the wood with the other groups,

'kay?

Huh?

[upbeat music]

All done.

Did you finish

peeling the potatoes?

Mm, they're mostly peeled

Oh

[upbeat music]

They're so tiny!

Seems a bit weak, doesn't it?

Maybe blowing some air

will make it stronger.

Be my guest.

I'm on it.

[upbeat music]

[Anamizu inhales]

[blows]

[group coughs]

[Kanikawa] You burned a

hole in my apron!

[curry bubbling]

[Haida] Hey, hey!

I wouldn't have pegged

you as a chef, bruh.

Whoa, nice!

Shouldn't we put in

soup stock or whatever?

It doesn't need any.

[Hakui] Groups that have

finished cooking

can go ahead and start eating!

Wow, your group's stuff

looks awesome!

Your tent and curry

are picture perfect!

You know it!

We might not look the part,

but we're total outdoorsy

types, right, Nakamicchi?

[Ganta sighs]

[girl 2] Did you

really make this, Haida?

[Haida] Hell yeah, I did!

You can even try a bite

if you want.

[girl 2]

Seriously? Thanks!

[Haida] Yeah, but just

one bite, got it?

[girl 1] Here we go.

-Super yummy!

-Delicious!

[Haida]

Whoa, that's a huge bite!

[insects chirping]

[girl 3] Good night.

[girl 4] Good night.

[girl 3] I'm gonna turn off

the lights now.

[lighthearted music]

[Nono chuckles]

Oh, cute stuffy!

I'm the type who can't sleep

unless I'm hugging something.

Hm?

[Kanikawa]

What are you staring at?

I can't sleep without

my star PJs, okay?

[Anamizu grunts]

I know the weather

wasn't the best,

but here's to an easy day one.

[teacher 1] Good work, everyone.

[group] Good work!

Good work, everyone.

[gentle music]

That looks good.

What are you drinking?

-It's just water.

-Aww

I basically have a bed

if I stack these up.

[boy]

Give me that back, Haida!

[Haida] Rock, paper, scissors,

the loser has to

give up their mat.

Gah, the girls

are taking forever.

[boy 2] Are they really gonna

come hang out with us?

[boy 1] What do you say we go

over to their tent instead?

[boy 2] Sounds good!

You should totally come, bruh.

[Ganta, muffled] Pass.

[group exclaims]

[Hakui] Be careful now.

Don't get lost

in the woods, boys.

This way leads to

the girls' tents.

Bathroom is in the

other direction.

[Haida] sh*t!

That man is totally

watching us like a hawk.

Frickin' Hakui, he's

walking back and forth

in front of our tent now too!

What do we do now?

[Hakui groans]

Like you even have

to ask me that.

We're gonna throw

a serious rager

and make it clear we don't

need girls to have a good time!

[boy 2] Huh, oh sure

Let's find out who the king is!

It's me!

[others exclaim]

I hereby order number

one and number two

-to play the Pocky game.

-[boy 2] Oh man!

Fine then, bring it on!

[boys laugh]

[gentle music]

[boys snoring]

[Ganta] Please no,

today's the one day

I need to sleep.

[students pant]

What's the problem, Ganta?

Stay up too late

again last night?

Get that body moving! Hustle!

Don't slack off!

Don't let up!

Exhaust all your energy!

All right,

the boys get one more lap.

-What?!

-This blows!

I'm dying!

[boys complain indistinctly]

When your group finishes

your sand art, raise your hand.

[students chattering]

[rain pattering]

Huh?

[students complaining]

[Hakui] Everyone stop working!

Head back to the tent!

[rain pattering]

The wind's so strong,

I hear it in here.

Do you think our tents are okay?

[Anamizu] Maybe.

[Nono sighs]

[Isaki sighs]

[rain pattering loudly]

[boys snoring]

[Ganta] Fall asleep.

Fall asleep.

[rain pattering on tent]

Fall asleep.

Fall asleep.

[boy snores]

[Ganta groans]

It's 1:00 AM.

Even if I fell asleep now,

I'll only have four hours left.

I'm exhausted to the bone.

But don't feel sleepy at all.

Everyone else sleeps just fine.

So the fact I'm the only one

who can't is weird.

I know it.

I must be messed up, right?

[Ganta sighs]

Hm?

[silence]

[Ganta inhales]

[Ganta laughs shakily]

[Hakui snores]

[footsteps shuffling]

[CHIRIHAMA]

[distant waves lapping]

[soft gasp]

[gentle piano music]

[Ganta gasps]

Weather's clear.

[EPISODE 5: CANOPUS]

[THE KEEL]

[Ganta gasps]

The weather's clear.

Mhm.

[Isaki laughs]

[Isaki and Ganta grunting]

[Isaki laughs]

Isaki, are you okay?

[Isaki laughs]

H-hey!

[Isaki laughs]

[Isaki and Ganta laugh]

[laughs echoing]

[uplifting music]

[Hakui mumbling]

I gotta teach

S-sit in your seat.

Raise your hand

No talking!

Hm?

It cleared up.

[Isaki laughs]

Isaki, stop right there!

Hm?

[gentle piano music]

Uh

[Ganta] The sky is being

reflected in the puddles

that got left behind

by all the waves.

[gentle piano music]

[Ganta gasps softly]

This is exactly

the kind of scenery

that Yui was talking about!

Yahoo!

[Isaki yells]

Isaki, why are you yelling?

Oh, it feels great

to let out a good yell.

[Ganta yells]

[Isaki laughs]

[Isaki and Ganta yell]

[both laugh]

[waves lap]

[laughter continues]

My feet got wet!

[relaxed music]

Considering the amount

of light we have right now

Isaki, can you read the notes

I took last Thursday out loud?

The ones from Komaruyama Park?

[Ganta] Yeah.

Uh, let's see.

The ISO was set at 6400.

And the f-stop was 3.5.

[shutter clicks]

Mhm, we just put it on auto

for two hours and now we wait.

[hands clap]

Please work.

Please work!

[Isaki] Ah, it's just like

being in a planetarium!

Yeah, but these

are real stars.

A private show.

[Ganta sighs]

So what do we do now

for two hours?

Hm

Oh, I know!

Why don't we play a game?

Um, like what?

I'm going to spell

out some letters,

and I want you

to pronounce them.

[Ganta] Okay

All right, here we go.

T-W-A.

[Ganta] Twa.

[Isaki] T-W-E.

[Ganta] Twee.

[Isaki] T-W-I.

[Ganta] Twigh.

T-W-U.

[Ganta] Twuh.

[Isaki] T-W-A-E.

That's tway.

T-W-O!

That's two.

Wait, what?

Two right?

Yeah, that's right,

but the spelling

was supposed to distract

you so you would totally

mispronounce the word

as "twoah."

Oh, really?

Sorry, laughing over

silly pranks and stuff

I'm not really good at it.

Have you been getting any sleep?

Want to sleep here together?

[Ganta] Huh?

Ah? Sleep together?

I mean, you haven't

been able to sleep, right?

Yeah.

When was the last time

you actually got some rest?

[gentle music]

To be honest

snuggling up next to you

has given me the best

sleep I've ever gotten.

Ah! Me too!

[Isaki stammers]

You mean it?

When I first came

into the observatory

and we fell asleep

next to each other,

it was the most refreshing

sleep I've gotten.

Like back when I was in

elementary school.

[gentle music]

My thing is

I'm totally fine during the day,

but when I'm alone

in my bed at night,

there are times when I'm

overwhelmed by my awful anxiety.

Turns out that listening to

your heartbeat helps me rest.

I'm not sure why,

but it puts me at ease.

[waves lapping]

[shutter clicks]

[gentle music continues]

[both sighing awkwardly]

[grunting]

[Ganta gasps]

Hey, what are you

holding your breath for?

Having her snuggled close

makes me feel warm and tingly.

[Isaki laughs]

Huh?

What's so funny?

It's your heartbeat.

It's moving way faster

than before.

[soft gasp]

[Ganta groans]

[gentle music]

I was so desperate to get

some sleep a few minutes ago

but now, falling asleep

almost seems like a waste.

[gentle music]

[alarm beeps]

[Ganta breathes heavily]

Oh my god!

Isaki, wake up!

[Isaki groans]

Isaki, the sun is coming up!

Isaki, the sun is coming up!

We have to get back

before anybody notices!

Did the picture turn out?

I think so, but I'll have

to check the quality later.

Let's hurry!

[Isaki] 'Kay.

[Isaki and Ganta panting]

Isaki!

Oh?

So, hey

Is it okay if

I take your picture?

Huh, aren't we in a rush

to get back right now?

Please, Isaki.

[Isaki groans]

Well, sure, I guess

I'm okay with that.

[gentle piano music]

[Ganta] Feels like the world

that surrounds me is rotating

so incredibly fast.

[Isaki chuckles]

The sky's

straight out of Heaven!

So to make sure

[shutter clicks]

the centrifugal force

doesn't end up

throwing me off

We better run

or we won't make it!

[Isaki] Seriously?

[Ganta]

I cuddled up.

Nice and tight.

[gentle music]

[ending theme]
