Mizuki

(I don't wanna do anything.)

Mizuki

Listen

(But I don't have the courage to just disappear either.)
7

Mizuki

Listen

(And yet, I don't see the point in living.)
8

Mizuki

Listen

(Which is why watching anime like this works, because...)

Mizuki

Listen

I don't have to think about anything.

Mizuki

MEIKO...?

Mizuki

Listen

What happened to keeping your distance from us...?

MEIKO

MEIKO

Listen

<Are you not coming back to SEKAI?>
21

MEIKO

Listen

<Everyone's been waiting for you...>
22

Mizuki

Listen

I know.

Kanade

Listen

Where could Mizuki be...?
28

Mafuyu

Listen

We've been to all the usual places we could come up with, but it is possible that we keep just missing each other...
29

Luka

Listen

How do you know that Mizuki's left home at all...?
30

Ena

Listen

I mean...
31

Kanade

Listen

We have to keep looking.
32

Kanade

Listen

That's all we can do right now.

KAITO

If only we could reach Mizuki's phone somehow.

MEIKO...!
37

Rin

Listen

Where were you?
38

MEIKO

Listen

With Mizuki.
39

Ena

Listen

What...?!
40

Ena

Listen

B-But you said you always ended up somewhere pitch black whenever you tried going over to Mizuki's phone...
41

MEIKO

Listen

I managed to pop in when it was actually in use.
42

MEIKO

Listen

And we had a chance to talk a little.
43

Kanade

Listen

Really...?
44

Ena

Listen

Thanks so much, MEIKO...!
45

Ena

Listen

So, where's Mizuki been all this time?
46

MEIKO

Listen

Apparently, at home...

47

MEIKO

Listen

For a few days at the very least...
48

Ena

Listen

I knew it...
49

Ena

Listen

Then, what's our next angle...?
50

Mafuyu

Listen

...
51

Mafuyu

Listen

Supplementary classes. Although, I'm not sure Mizuki's actually going to show up for them...
52

Ena

Listen

What...?
53

Mafuyu

Listen

I happened to run into Aoyagi during my search.
54

Mafuyu

Listen

Based on my conversation with him, Mizuki's missed enough days to have to attend supplementary classes.
55

Kanade

Listen

Come to think of it, I remember hearing something about having to attend supplementary classes or risk being held back.
56

Mafuyu

Listen

Considering how Mizuki's just barely been staying in contact with Shiraishi...
57

Mafuyu

Listen

I'm guessing it has something to do with not wanting others to worry.
58

Ena

Listen

So...
59

Ena

Listen

Mizuki's worried that getting held back would cause trouble for everyone?
60

Mafuyu

Listen

I don't know for certain.
61

Ena

Listen

(It's true that Mizuki might be feeling that way, and it would explain those messages with Shiraishi. Still...)
62

Ena

Listen

(Is Mizuki really going to show up...?)
63

Ena

Listen

(No, I have to take whatever I can at this point...)
64

Ena

Listen

Thanks, Mafuyu.
I'll try asking the teachers about those supplementary classes!
65

Ena

Listen

Also, MEIKO.
66

Ena

Listen

I'm really sorry, but would you keep being by Mizuki's side if possible?
67

MEIKO

Listen

I can.
68

Ena

Listen

Thanks.

Ena

Listen

Yeah, I've got things covered here.
Thanks again for coming.
70

Ena

Listen

But still no sign...
Mizuki seems to come here just after noon, so we can probably expect to keep waiting until the last minute.
71

Kanade's Voice

Listen

<Okay. In that case, I'll stay near the school gate a little while longer.>
72

Ena

Listen

Thanks.
73

Ena

Listen

I'm sorry for making you skip school like this, Mafuyu...
74

Mafuyu's Voice

Listen

<It's okay. This is far more important.>
75

Ena

Listen

You mean that? Thanks...
76

Ena

Listen

Anyway, I'll let you know if something happens.

77

Ena

Listen

(Today's when the teachers said there'd be supplementary classes...)
78

Ena

Listen

(I've been looking all over for Mizuki since then, but we never once saw each other.)
79

Ena

Listen

(Still, today might be my biggest chance...)
80

Ena

Listen

(Those supplementary classes are supposed to take place after school, so Mizuki should, in theory, be arriving soon.)
81

Ena

Listen

I want us to talk.
82

Ena

Listen

(If I'm going to maximize my odds, should I wait by the main entrance instead of by this classroom?)
83

Ena

Listen

(I don't know, but I'd rather not miss my chance by moving around needlessly.)
84

Ena

Listen

(Still, is Mizuki really coming...?)
85

Ena

Listen

(But this is basically my last shot.
I have to bet everything on it.)
86

Ena

Listen

(I don't have a choice... Right...?)
87

Ena

Listen

(But is this really what I'm supposed to be doing...?)
88

Ena

Listen
