Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kaku: Outbreak (2013)

Post by bunniefuu »

In other news, a virus has been detected.

{Of the viruses classified by the WHO, it is said to be in the category of "most dangerous"—}The WHO has declared this virus to be one of the most dangerous—

Sources within the Japanese government have {acknowledged}accepted the offer from the U.S. government

for an emergency supply of vaccines—

This virus's incubation time ranges from to days.

Priority has been placed on procuring vaccines for the , citizens under quarant—

Telephone service is mostly unavailable in Hinamizawa,

preventing the prefectural disaster management department from evalua—

Furthermore, all highways leading to quarantined areas have been shut down,

and all railway lines will be avoiding the quarantined areas.

What's got everyone so riled up so early?{DIff margins cos will overlap with credits otherwise -sm}

This is the Emergency Response Headquarters.

Beginning at noon today,

there will be a mass medical examination at Hinamizawa School.

Please follow the instructions of your local representatives{the town council and the neighborhood council} and gather there.

This is awful!

They found a k*ller virus or something.

What terrible timing.

I have to go to Osaka tomorrow...

Huh, a virus?

What are we going to do?

There was supposed to be a sale at Okinomiya today,

so I've got nothing in the fridge.

And the water's been turned off too!

Just what is going on here?

A few weeks after being infected,

infected persons will begin exhibiting the following symptoms, which can lead to death in a week—{cut off}

Hinamizawa and other areas specified by the prefectural governor

have been placed under quarantine.

Until the safety of the quarantined area can be determined, you may not leave this district.

Those who do not abide by this decree will be punished in accordance with national law.

Please return to your homes and remain calm.

We repeat.

This is the Ground Self-Defense Force.

As of AM this morning,

Hinamizawa and other areas specified by the prefectural governor

have been placed under quarantine.

Until the safety of the quarantined area can be determined, you may not leave this district.

Those who do not abide by this decree will be punished in accordance with national law.

Please return to your homes and remain calm.

We repeat.

This is the Ground Self-Defense Force.

Hinamizawa is under quarantine?

The phones aren't working either?

Keiichi, you do the second floor.

We're going to seal up the windows tight with packing tape.

I'll do the first floor.

Dear, you do the kitchen.

Do you really think packing tape will stop a virus?

Well, it's better than doing nothing!

Just do it.

Jeez.

What the hell is going on?

Oh, Keiichi-kun!

Hey, Rena.

I'm glad to see that you're safe.

Yup.

What about Satoko and Rika-chan?

Rika-chan and the others live in a different district,

so they have a different assembly place, I think.

{But I can't know for sure because the phone lines are down.}But I can't contact them to find out because the phone lines are down.

So the phones don't work where you are either?

I heard that an out-of-control car hit one of the telephone poles

and brought down the lines.

Seriously?

Kei-chan!

I'm so glad to see you two are all right!

I'm just so happy!

Hey!

That hurts, Mi-chan.

So has this virus really infected everyone in town?

That scenario seems quite unlikely.

The first victim was apparently from Takatsudo.

But since the virus there was contained pretty quickly,

they said it's not likely that the infection has reached our area.

Then...

Yeah. If we could ascertain that no one in Hinamizawa is infected,

there's some optimism that they could gradually lift the quarantine.

I hope so.

But I don't think I can be so optimistic.

See, Uncle Mion here knows how to work a radio.{ojisan}

I modified one to make it possible to listen to the police and Ground Forces channels.

Isn't that illegal?

Desperate times, desperate measures.

From what I've intercepted so far,

it seems this person has no history of traveling overseas,

so they suspect there was a different original carrier.

They're looking into that now.

So basically, someone else caught it overseas and then brought it back to Hinamizawa.

Or...

it's possible that someone made contact with a carrier in another town and brought it back.

From what I can discern,

the quarantined area's too big for just Hinamizawa. It must cover the entire region.

Also...

Keep what I'm about to say a secret.

From what I've intercepted on the radio, in all this fuss about a virus

it seems like they've turned to suspecting it could be a local disease from Hinamizawa.

A local disease? You're saying this k*ller virus is different than the African virus?

Could it be...

Yes. Oyashiro-sama's curse.

What, that ?

Yes.

It's an old Hinamizawa legend:

an impure something arose from the Onigafuchi Swamp and att*cked the village.

You know the story.

But Mi-chan.

Back then, the village wasn't destroyed, right?

Which means, it's not as deadly as the one they're talking about on TV,

which could wipe out Hinamizawa.

Is that true?

According to the legend,

if you got caught up in the impure substance from the swamp,

you would transform into a demon, beyond the help of any person,

and there would be no possible way to cure you until Oyashiro-sama himself descended.{Used "he" here because they don't know who Oyashiro is at this point. I disagree because Oyashiro is a spriti without gender}{"he" tends to be used for male or non-gendered people. You wouldn't call a humanoid deity an "it".}

Which means if a miracle occurred like the one described in the legend,

Hinamizawa could escape this disaster!

In other words...

...if Rika-chan, the reincarnation of Oyashiro-sama, showed herself,

and publicly denied the prospect of Hinamizawa being destroyed,

maybe everyone would calm down.

Then let's hurry and get her!

My grandma is trying to explain that to the Ground Forces right now.

But it looks like outsiders can't understand just how important Rika-chan is to Hinamizawa.

Well, even putting aside talk about Oyashiro-sama,

I want to see for myself that Rika-chan and Satoko are all right.

Me too.

Yeah.

Cabinet Minister Matsuda

has just recently been embroiled in a scandal over his secretary's wages, but now—

"But wait," you ask, "what's so great about this vacuum cleaner?"

Here is this week's forecast.

There's not much news about Hinamizawa.

Something like a virus in the boondocks won't stay in the headlines for very long.

What's this country coming to?

Keiichi-kun!

Kei-chan, looks like you're all right.

Glad to see you are as well.

So, how did it go? Were you able to check on Rika-chan and Satoko?

Yeah.

I heard this on the radio, but...

Truth is, they've labeled Rika as "condition unknown" and apparently brought her in for examination.

No way!

Does that mean Rika-chan's got the virus?

Shh, you're being too loud.

S-Sorry.

I don't know if it's the virus or not.

In any case, she's been taken by the {disease control troops} quarantine corps and hasn't returned.

How long has it been since she was taken?

Since the day the quarantine began.

Is Satoko-chan with her?

I couldn't find that out.

'Course not. Everyone in Hinamizawa completely ignores Satoko, after all.

If someone comes down with the disease,

normally the next step in a quarantine would be to confine their housemates.

From what I hear on the radio,

the only person who's being held is Rika-chan.

So... this is getting pretty strange.

In what way?

Well, you know that Satoko's parents advocated for the dam, right?

And so, they received divine punishment from Oyashiro-sama and d*ed in an accident.

Yeah.

So, the radicals are saying that this time, Oyashiro-sama's curse

has been brought on by Satoko.

That's g*dd*mn ridiculous.

They blame everything on Satoko.

TL Note: Wrapping someone in a bamboo mat and throwing them in a river to drown was an established method of execution used in the Edo period.

Some people are actually buying into the rumor that by wrapping Satoko in a mat

and throwing her into the Onigafuchi Swamp, it would quell Oyashiro-sama's anger.

That can't be!

Damn.

So Satoko is all alone, living in that storage house right now? {*あの倉庫小屋 - referring to that little house which used to be storage where they live}

That's dangerous!

Right. There's a limit to what Satoko-chan can do by herself.

Shouldn't we hide her with us? Shouldn't we?

But whose house should she stay at?

I think my house would be even more dangerous for her.

I'll hide her at my house.

It'll be okay. I'll convince my dad.

Okay. If we can contact Satoko, we'll tell her to come to your house.

Hold on a second.

This doesn't just affect Satoko.

Depending on the situation, you two might be in danger too.

What do you mean?

I told you this before.

About the rumor that this virus is actually an old one from this village.

That it gushed from the swamp, right?

Yeah.

And that everyone here has already been infected with it since ancient times.

If that's true, then why haven't people been dying from it all this time?

The people who believe this rumor say that as long as the virus remains in Hinamizawa, it's stable. Harmless.

The families that have been here for a while

must have built up a generational immunity to it or something.

Are they saying this is all because people who moved here from the outside,

like Rena and I, don't have this immunity?

That's exactly it!

It's the fault of the outsiders who moved in here.

They broke the fragile balance here, and caused the dormant virus in the villagers to act up!

Um...

You don't believe that ridiculous story, do you, Mi-chan?

Of course I don't!

There's no way that kind of nonsense holds any water!

Normally, no one would believe such a stupid story.

But lately everyone's gone crazy.

False rumors like that are readily being swallowed,

and if you attempt to refute them, you're treated like an infected person.

It's gotten really bad.

So, Kei-chan, Rena, be careful.

Don't let down your guard no matter what.

Okay?

Y-Yeah.

Got it.

I hope I'll be first in line today too.

Huh?

Where did everyone go?

That's weird. I'm not picking up anything.

What's going on?

The hell's going on?!

What's the meaning of this?

Where's the water truck?

What about doctors and supplies?

We are the Ground Self-Defense Force.

We will not allow you to leave the quarantined area.

Turn around and return to your homes.

Don't give me that!

Are you abandoning us?!

How are we supposed to survive without food and water?

Hey, answer us!

If you do not depart immediately, we shall sh**t without hesitation.{Kent State me, cap'n!}

That's strange.

Why isn't the TV working?

What's going on?

Nothing's coming in on this radio.

Keiichi?

There's a letter for you here.

A letter?

For me?{No, it's for Santa. Dipshit.}

It was pushed into the cr*ck of the door.

Thanks.

Uh huh.

What was Mion thinking?

She should have just come by in person.

Let's see...

To Kei-chan.

Be careful!

The Neighborhood Association is strongly considering

making an example of the Maebara and Ryuuguu families.

Wh-What does she mean by that?!

If anyone tries to stop them, they'll say it's because you're protecting them,

because you too are an infected person, or so goes their twisted logic.

Talk of lynching your families has gotten out of hand.

If my grandma were healthy, she'd put a stop to this madness.

But a few days ago, she came down with a high fever

and is now unable to even sit up.

A few of my relatives are even saying that she's become infected herself,

which puts me in an uncertain position when I speak for the household...

Rather, if I mess up in any way, I'll certainly pay for it with my life.

Under these circumstances, I can no longer protect your family or Rena's.

Grandma says that this situation is almost a play-by-play reenactment

of the old legend where the demons came out of Onigafuchi Swamp.

She says that it's turning into a hell where everyone wants to k*ll everyone else.

I think it's too dangerous for you to stay in Hinamizawa any longer.

At the very least, if we continue to stay shut up in our houses, we'll eventually wind up dead!

That's why I'm planning to escape from here tomorrow night.

The Sonozaki family owns a few secret tunnels.

One of them leads out beyond the blockade lines.

Tonight, talk to your family and have them prepare to leave.

Come and meet me tomorrow night, and we'll all get out of here!

I've sent the same letter to Rena.

I know this all sounds pretty crazy, but please believe me!

Though, even if you believe me and we act on this plan,

I estimate our chances of escaping Hinamizawa to be around only % at best.

I-Is that all there is?

Is this for real?

What about Satoko?

Rika-chan is one thing, but Satoko...

What was that?

Wh-What?!

Wh-Who is it?

It's Ryuuguu. Please open the door!

Hurry!

It's Rena!

Hey!

Huh?!

Wh-What?!

M-Mion!

Are you okay?{obviously she's not, what kind of dumb question is that K ?}

Of course she isn't!

We need to stop the bleeding!

D-Dear! We need to treat her!

Rena, what happe—{holy shitto}

What the hell happened?!

R-Rena!

It hurts!

Stop!

Please stop!

If you want to k*ll someone, you should be prepared to die yourself!

Don't take that responsibility lightly!

R-Rena...

That one's still alive!

S-Sorry.

It's okay.

More importantly, we have to get ready to escape.

R-Right.

But tell me something!

What happened?!

Mi-chan brought a letter to my house too.

But she was found by the vigilantes and sh*t!

She was sh*t only for having brought a letter to my house.

They decided that we Ryuuguus were infected

and anyone who had contact with us was helping us out.

So they sh*t her, just like that.

Rena-chan, that g*n...

Even if you don't sh**t a g*n, you can still intimidate people with it.

Mr. Maebara, if we don't escape from here right now, we'll die.

My father has already been k*lled.

When he tried to help Mi-chan...

They didn't hesitate.

They sh*t people as easily as sh**ting at birds to drive them away.

S-Sorry, Rena.

If only I hadn't messed up...

Sorry!

It's not your fault.

And I don't hate anybody.

I've already settled the score with the people who deserve my hatred.

Anyway, let's get ready to go!

More of them will be coming any minute now!

O-Okay. Let's do that!

I'll slow everyone down, so leave me here.

We can't. Without you, we won't be able to find the secret tunnel.

You can't just carelessly abandon your responsibilities.

Lead us there!

You got me.

You won't let me die in peace, will you?

Hey, Mi-chan. We don't have time for chit-chat right now, so be straight with me.

Why are you asking us to leave Satoko-chan behind and escape by ourselves?

That's right! I was wondering that too.

What's going to happen to Satoko?

Apparently, a little while ago Satoko was taken away on a boat.

She's to be the sacrifice for the ceremony from the legend of Onigafuchi.

They intend to drown her at the end of a three-day ritual.

But she's still alive, right?

She is , right?

There's nothing we can do.

We can't do anything!

With the Shrine Association and the Young Men's Association on their side,

we're up against over a hundred people.

They even roped in the Hunters Association.

And they're armed with more than hunting g*ns.

While chanting Oyashiro-sama's name, they've all been taken by a fog of madness.

They're merciless.

Anybody who tries to stop them is m*rder*d in cold blood.

They were completely normal just a while ago.

Then, all of a sudden, they went crazy.

This virus drives people insane!

And the legend of Oyashiro-sama is about to be reenacted!

The only one who can do anything about this is Oyashiro-sama!

Not Rika-chan, his reincarnation! And not us!

Humans... Humans can't do anything!

Nothing...

Calm down, Mion.

Thanks, Mion.

While Rena and I didn't know anything and were taking it easy,

you put yourself through a lot of trouble to lay those rumors to rest.

If not for your efforts, we'd probably have long since been swallowed up by this insanity.

So, thank you, Mion.

Rena, you probably want to blame Mion for this, but...

Not at all.

Actually, I think this is good news.

Yeah, without a doubt this is good news.

Yup. Because Satoko-chan is alive!

And on top of that, by waiting three days to drown her,

that means that they'll make sure to keep her alive for the next hours!{Always look on the bright side of life!}

Yeah, I get it, Satoshi.

When even you get serious, there's nothing to be afraid of.

With a few whacks, this little guy can give their faces one hell of a makeover!

K-Keiichi! You aren't actually thinking of going to rescue Satoko-chan, are you?

Dad, you take Mom and Mion and escape out the back door.

Rena and I will handle the rest.

I apologize for the trouble.

Please take good care of Mi-chan.

Mi-chan likes to hog all the glory for herself, so she may try to tag along after us.

Even though she's badly injured and it would be painful for her...

Heh.

Don't treat me like I'm a burden.

Then let's meet at the Sonozaki house.

You two should come escape with us!

What can the two of you{ do against them ?

Thanks for your concern, but it's too late for that.

Let's go, Keiichi-kun.

Yeah.

Well then, see ya in a few.

I'm counting on you, Dad.

You better come back.

We will.

So there's about of them.

Do they really think they can win?

I'm sure they do.

Like most amateurs, they probably think there's safety in numbers.

What a bunch of idiots.

If they had just stayed quietly at home, they could have lived longer lives.

But they committed several grave errors.

Yeah. They sh*t Mion. And kidnapped Satoko.

It's a hell of a mistake to mess with our club.

Hey, Keiichi-kun.

When we were listening to Mi-chan's story, you said it was "good news".

But I meant "good news" in a different way.

In what way?

We're up against the Shrine Association and the Young Men's Association.

About people, right?

Well, well. Ain't that a lucky break for us?

There's only of them.

On second thought, that's not enough at all.

You said it. I wanna take out the whole of Hinamizawa right now.

And there's about of them right here.

They really are underestimating us.

Will we even be able to work up a sweat?

Well, how about we just let loose and enjoy ourselves?

Satoko-chan, wait for us!

Before we discuss the {\fnCorbel}η{\r}- virus, {it's η (eta) 型ウイルス}

we will explain the Class-C brain virus. {honestly i didnt' know. I saw "heishu" in the dictionary and was liek "Class-C? wtf odes that mean"}{I think this is just the third type, whereas the first two types are well-known?}{in any case, from teh way theyr'e using it, it doesn't really matter i suppose}{I guess it's like Hepatitis A, B, C, }{so, strains or varieties}{yeah. heishu virus doesn't bring up anything so probably made up anyway!}

Iwashi.

The existence of parasitic Class-C brain viruses, or simply "Class-Cs",

has not been officially confirmed even into the present day.

But according to an informal study by the UN,

over % of humans are infected with a Class-C brain parasite.

Hold it right there.

Yes?

%, meaning... both you and I are infected with this virus?

You may think of it that way.

However, instead of calling it a virus,

it's more accurate to think of it as a parasite.

A parasite?

As even the average person knows these days,

we share a symbiotic relationship with E. coli and other microorganisms.

You may think of it as a similar sort of arrangement.

Then there shouldn't be any problem.

The problem lies in the suggested possibility

of the virus altering the brain functions of the host.

Class-C parasitic viruses are said to induce amicable behavior toward hosts of the same virus

and hostile behavior toward hosts of different Class-C parasitic viruses.

What do you mean by that?

Are you saying there are multiple variants of this virus?

Several hundred strains are known to exist.

Oddly enough,

their distribution coincides with that of national boundaries and religious groups.

In other words, the differences between each country's culture and disposition

are all derived from the hidden guidance of these viruses.

Then are you saying that humanity has been guided by these viruses since ancient times?

Yes.

I-I can't believe what I'm hearing.

The UN pushed for the eradication of the virus, but...

some raised concerns that such efforts

would spark ethnic cleansing programs like the one the Nazis carried out.

As a result, research on the virus was forever forbidden, and the records were destroyed.

The UN brushed aside the existence of the virus?

But apparently, each country continued its own research into the virus.

In our own country, a group of medical institutions has been continuing secret research

and is the organization behind the virus, which is our current problem.

In other words, the virus...

...is a Class-C parasitic brain virus researched and developed by our own country.

Even among Class-C viruses, this - can produce drastic personality changes

in an extremely short time.

Drastic personality changes?

It promotes aggression and paranoia.

These tendencies are already becoming pronounced in the infected residents of the Hinamizawa area,

and in a short time, mob v*olence and mass killings will manifest.

A-And you're saying that your people developed such a dreadful virus?

I will explain the rest.

Up till today, the research on the - virus was conducted behind closed doors

by the Alphabet Council, which has authority beyond the law.

The next step was the challenge of mass manufacturing it cheaply

and also stabilizing it enough to function as a biological w*apon.

A biological w*apon?!

You can't be serious!

Are you saying that this country was developing a biological w*apon?!

Since this breach was caused by an unfortunate accident,

at the same time as we give treatment to the citizens,

we are planning to collect valuable data on how it affects humans.

{Collecting human data?}You're even going that far?!

Who are you people?

Our research on this matter will surely become valuable to this country,

and I'm confident that it is in the national interest.

You must give full authority over this matter to the Alphabet Project.

Y-You are... the Alphabet Council's...

Prime Minister.

Order the Ground Forces to begin the quarantine.

This is the Ground Self-Defense Force.

As of AM this morning,

Hinamizawa and other areas specified by the prefectural governor

have been placed under quarantine.

Until the safety of the quarantined area can be determined, you may not leave this district.

Those who do not abide by this decree will be punished in accordance with national law.

Please return to your homes and remain calm.

This is the Emergency Response Headquarters.

Beginning at noon today, there will be a mass medical examination at the designated locations. {i wonder why this same line before said "the school" and this one is more vague. }{maybe this one's for a larger area, idk}{oh right because this one takes place near Satoko's house, which we've established is in a different district}

Please follow the instructions of your local representatives{the town council and the neighborhood council} and gather there.

Why's it so loud this early?

Rika, what's going on?

All this noise...

Rika?

We'll start with an examination of the subject's blood.

Then we'll perform bone marrow aspiration.

We're all set up.

What's going on?

Why isn't the preventative medicine against showing any effect?

At this rate, there will be a rapid increase in the number of stage L patients.{in higurashi, apparently the stages of hinamizawa syndrome is labeled L through L =most severe}

There are reports that even some among the Ground Forces are exhibiting symptoms of infection.

This is moving way too fast.

It shouldn't be possible for the infection to spread this quickly!

Four of the unit members tested positive for in the latest regular blood test.

From this, it is clear that the protective equipment we currently use is ineffective against this virus.

Therefore, the disaster relief unit

will withdraw from the quarantined area effective immediately.

Experimental Equipment Company

will hereby be placed under the authority of the Hinamizawa disaster relief operation.

Troops are to immediately dispatch and maintain public order in the quarantined zone.

As per regulations, you are authorized to use live amm*nit*on during the operation.

How? How did the virus evolve this quickly?

There's nothing left to be done.

Humans can't do anything...

Humanity is already...

Die!

Ow!

Are you okay, Rena?

Thanks, Keiichi-kun.

Mi-chan, wait for us.

We'll definitely bring Satoko-chan back with us.

Let's go, Rena.

Dear, come on.

Will those kids really come?

How... How did it all end up like this?

It's okay. You don't need to worry about Kei-chan and Rena.

They'll definitely rescue Satoko and meet up with us.

How can you be so sure?

Because they're the aces of my club.

They'll definitely come back.

Are they keeping Satoko in that cabin?

Look. There are lights on the path along Onigafuchi Swamp.

Yeah.

We could just burst in,

but let's use the strategy that has the best chance of safely rescuing Satoko.

What do you propose?

Although they seem to be getting along nicely,

at this point they probably don't trust each other anymore.

We'll use that against them.

I see.

Keiichi-kun, you never fail to disappoint. So you're going to spread some rumors.

{May as well put what I learned in the club to good use.}Our club was the perfect training ground for it.

This'll be a piece of cake!

Bad news!

The guys from the next district are coming to capture the Houjou girl!

What?

What do you mean?!

There's a rumor spreading that if you drink that girl's lifeblood, you'll be saved!

Those idiots, believing a rumor like that!

Wh-What should we do?

We're about to start the sacrificial ceremony! We can't give her up!

Like we care if they're from the next district over!

They're just dirty rats!

Let's get 'em!

This is bad!

The guys from the next district over are heading to the cabin to take away Houjou!

What? sh*t, just where are they coming from?

Who cares?

In any case, we can't give her up!

Let's go back to the cabin!

Yeah!

Wh-Who's there? Is someone there?

They're coming!

Not yet. Don't sh**t yet!

Hey! What do you want?

We've come to protect the Houjou girl!

What district are you from?

Bastards, don't f*ck with us!

sh**t 'em dead!

I got sh*t!

Dammit! Were we too late?

Listen, we're gonna take back the girl!

Good. Now the cabin will be poorly guarded.

Let's go.

Yeah.

What is happening out there?

Assholes!{Check -sm}

K-k*ll them!

You!

You bastards!

Satoko!

Keiichi-san?

Satoko-chan, wait for us!

Rena-san too?

Don't move! If you come any closer, I'll blow her head off!

Satoko-chan!

Satoko!

Rena-san! Keiichi-san!

Don't worry! We'll take these guys down and rescue you!

You're the ones who are going down!

You are fools for risking your lives just for me!

Yeah, we are.

Both Rena and I are huge idiots.

But do you have a problem with that, Satoko?

No, I don't.

Stop talking and chew lead!

You damned brat!

Bitch!

Dammit!

Satoko-chan!

Rena-san!

Rena-san! Rena-san!

Screw you!

You can die too!

Keiichi-san!

Keiichi-kun!

You can all die together!

Don't even!

Keiichi-kun!

Keiichi-san!

That was a shock.

I thought I was dead for a moment there.

You weren't sh*t?

I was sh*t, but Satoshi saved me.{That's one awesome baseball bat -sm}

Nii-nii did?

Yeah.

I owe you one, Satoshi.

Why? Why did you risk your lives just for me?

We made a promise to Mion.

Yeah.

We told her we'd definitely bring you back.

Keiichi-san...

Rena-san...

Keiichi-san, what about Rika?

Sorry. We have no idea where Rika-chan is.

So we're just leaving her behind and escaping on our own?

Listen, Satoko-chan. Rika-chan is different than the rest of us.

Rika-chan is Oyashiro-sama's reincarnation. Even if she stays here, she won't be harmed.

So for now, we'll escape without her.

When things calm down, we'll definitely come back for her.

That's...

We don't have a choice.

Mion was sh*t and is badly wounded.

And our chances of getting k*lled keep going up the longer we stay here.

So, so...

I understand.

Sorry.

But can we stop by just one place first?

Where?

My house.

Because I can't have you keep carrying me on your back.

I'd like to go get my shoes.

Plus, Rika may have come back...

Okay. Let's get a move on.

Yeah.

Child of man, the time for our parting has come.

It would seem so.

But isn't it too early?

Yes. We're still too young.

It would have taken more than a thousand years for us to accept this planet.{aka it would take more than a thousand years for us to accept this planet}

Hinamizawa was supposed to be the shell of an egg

that should have warmly protected us until that time.

Humans were the ones who broke it.

It's not your fault.

I do not have the means to stop my brethren

who now tremble in the joy at the prospect of spreading their wings and flying away.

We will not be bound to this place ever again.

So?

You will enjoy your heyday while leaving us humans behind in the twilight?

Now we'll be destroyed together. What a ridiculous prospect.

Some of my brethren should begin to calm down eventually.

All we can do is pray that will happen in time to prevent the destruction of mankind.

That's right.

They've been shut-ins for a thousand years. Who knows how crazy they'll get?

I'll be calmly observing the result.

Child of man, you must not abandon hope.

I don't know about that.

Do not abandon hope.

Rika! Rika!

Rika!

Rika, you were okay!

Thank goodness!

It's really a miracle!

I can't believe we found you!

Yeah, for sure!

But we'll rejoice later.

For now, we have to escape.

That's right.

Come on!

Rika, what's wrong?

We have to get out of here.

What's going on, Rika-chan?

If we stay here, we don't know what'll happen!

That's right. We have to escape.

I will stay here.

If we don't stay here, no one will remember that this is where we're supposed to be.

So, I'm sorry, but I can't leave.

It'll be okay. Soon, it won't be dangerous here anymore.

Everyone will k*ll each other and no one will be left alive.

What are you saying? We have to leave now!

I told you, didn't I? I cannot leave this place.

I have to observe this.

Is it the end of the world, or the beginning of a new one?

As the reincarnation of Oyashiro-sama, I must.

Rika.

But... let's... let's go together!

Rika-chan.

This is what I must do.

So, in my place, please watch over the world.

And see whether we can accept new friends or not.

New... friends?

I'll be waiting here until then.

Until someone returns, I will wait.

Rika...

Is that what you truly must do?

Rika!

Okay, Rika-chan.

I... no, we will definitely come back!

So promise me you won't die until then!

I promise.

We will meet again.

Then there's nothing to worry about.

Satoko, the reincarnation of Oyashiro-sama promised you.

You'll definitely see her again!

Rika-chan, you better keep your promise.

Till then, take care of yourself.

Bye.

You better! Rika!

Fight on! Nano desu~!

It looks like it's spread this far already.

Is this the end of the world?

I don't know.

But Rika-chan knows this is probably a new beginning.

Through the artifice known as civilization,

humanity spent a thousand years thinking it was the only exception to natural selection.

And now we're paying the bill for all that borrowed time.

Is this mad world going to be our normal one from now on?

This "mad world" will end soon.

Only those who accept the new world will survive. Natural selection.

Well, it remains to be seen if we'll pass that selection.

Oh come on.

We can get through this no problem.

It's nothing compared to the usual trouble we face in our club.

Living by the new rules in this world...

Well, it looks like our next club activities will be rather heavy and last for quite a while.

Living in an unfair world?

That means the rules of the game haven't really changed at all.

That's true too.

Yup!

The real test starts now.

The Great Hinamizawa Disaster, but on a global scale, will finally begin.

Everyone, let's all brace ourselves!

Yeah!

When I lost the things that have filled my heart till now{Maybe swap this and the next line, I kinda don't like doing this in the songs, interchanging lines to make them "flow". Leave the original order since it should carry the song nuances better -sm}

I realized for the first time

how much you supported me

and how much you made me smile

The cost of losing them was unbearable

Even though I struggled so desperately

to reach out my hands and take them back

Like the wind they slipped through,

looking as though they would reach me, but did not

My chest tightened with loneliness and despair

My heart felt like it would break

But your smiling face remained in my memories{Isn't this line in present tense? "remains"? -sm}

and always encourages me{This doesn't link up nicely with the previous line. Maybe use a comma in prev line, else it doesn't link up well. Or maybe use "and always encourages me" -sm}

Let's return to those days once more

I know it will be all right this time{Alright --> All right -sm}

I'll always be by your side, smiling{This line doesn't feel right, but I can't come up with anything good... Please double-check and change id needed . -sm}

Right by your side...

Where are you now and what are you doing?{Comma splice -sm}

Are you in that place beyond the sky?{Same suggestion as line of the English -sm}

Will you be there for me, smiling like always?{Egao de itekureru, doesn't it mean more like "Will you always be there with a smile for me?" as in, you have to be there, AND have to be smiling. Loses nuance and detail otherwise imo -sm}

Right now, that's all I keep hoping for{It's --> That's might be better -sm}

Where are you now and what are you doing?

Are you in that place beyond the sky?
