"On the morning of a beautiful sunny day" "I was waiting at the place we promised to meet" "I stood there watching the laughing children" "As I patiently waited for you to come" "I watched a perfect arc as a ball was being thrown" "And it flew right before my eyes" "It was just an ordinary sight to me" "Now, if you were just with me" "As this world kept turning slowly" "But it seemed like it was leaving only me behind" "The clouds just wouldn't hide me" "It was a Sunday where the sun seemed to hurt more than usual" "What the hell!" "An... angel..." "Ho-Hoshimaru!" "Get that thing!" "Episode 8:" "Don't Close Your Eyes" "Akira!" "Freeze!" "Stop it!" "Don't point those things at kids!" "So that's your secret, huh?" "He's coming..." "Huh?" "I hope you've been well, my princesses." "You!" "So that thing was yours!" "Whoa..." "You're wrong." "That's not mine." "I got them." "Shorts, and for the..." "you know." "Ah, thank you." "Oh, and my dragon's child..." "just joined the fray." "Einwelle..." "Using your dragon's child, Takano, you can get back in ten minutes." "I'm sorry for behaving selfishly." "No, it's okay." "This is your part in this, Takano." "What about that underdeveloped dragon's child?" "Definitely an unexpected guest." "It seems like it's linked to the girl." "What do you want to do?" "You can leave it alone." "We can find its origins from Sakura." "So, I'll recover Amapora and retreat." "Is that all right?" "Yes, that's fine." "Satomi..." "That was just a mistake!" "I'm not going to let this beat me, and I don't need to be saved by you..." "Bungo, you always..." "Well..." "I..." "You lost consciousness..." "So..." "Bungo!" "Did you do this?" "What?" "No, no, it wasn't me!" "Sorry, that was me." "Satomi, let's head back." "There's no way I'm going to let it end like this." "Sure is persistent." "A battle between dragon's children is meaningless." "Damn!" "What is that thing?" "Doesn't that one linked to it feel any pain?" "I don't think it's just because..." "girls have a higher pain threshold." "Maybe you did something to this girl." "Who, me?" "You seem like the kind of guy who could make a girl cry." "How can you joke at a time like this?" "It's okay." "That dragon's child won't be minding you for long." "Or maybe it won't notice." "Fall back!" "Yeah, like I'm going to let you just hit me and run." "Shi... ina..." "That was a little too close, Norio." "Not that I really wanted to." "Shiina..." "Shiina..." "Looks like it would be pretty hard to restrain you guys." "Unless you kill us." "Looks like I drew the short end of the stick on this one." "Hoshimaru!" "Huh?" "What?" "What is it?" "Hoshimaru?" "Hoshimaru, what is it?" "Norio!" "Take us up above the winds." "What the hell is going on?" "A sweet... smell?" "Everyone is going to die." "What skills..." "What... is this?" "Hey..." "Hoshimaru..." "Those people..." "What's wrong with them?" "Hey..." "Hoshimaru..." "What is it?" "Nothing." "Incoming." "Target data acquired." "Fire Gatling gun, two second burst." "Roger." "Orion 1, breaking off." "Orion 2, attacking primary target." "Ouch!" "Those 30 millimeter cannons really hurt up close." "Satomi, they're coming." "Primary target, confirmed hit." "Orion 2, breaking off." "Orion 3, attack primary target with Gatling gun." "Roger." "Hang on, Satomi." "An eye for an eye." "I just learned this one." "I haven't tested it yet..." "But we'll manage somehow." "Orion 4, starting second attack wave." "A... a kid?" "Orion 3, Orion 4 is down!" "Damn it!" "W-what the?" "Something's wrong with today's drills!" "I guess random shots from far away just won't do it..." "Please stop!" "Please stop it!" "Don't close your eyes, Shiina." "That is your part in this..." "Look... and never forget." "Satomi, that's enough." "You've already killed enough." "[Sakura]" "A-Akira..." "W-were you all right?" "W-what I'm trying to say..." "N-no!" "Hey, welcome home." "Class must have gone late today." "Daddy!" "Daddy!" "Hey, Bungo..." "Where do you think I'm going?" "Don't look at me like that." "That's why I hate you..." "The Eighth Episode Don't Close Your Eyes" " The End" "It spans the entire sky and stretches on endlessly" "I look up and wish that it would take me and envelop me" "Even if I can't walk alongside everyone" "I want them to see my footprints and know that I'm not there" "That day, I let go of your hand" "You never even looked back" "You just left me behind" "Can't you see that I have my dreams" "And they're waiting on your doorstep" "It spans the entire sky and stretches on endlessly" "I look up and wish that it would take me and envelop me" "Next Episode" "Why..." "Why can't I just be with Hoshimaru without all these... feelings of uneasiness, anger and regret that come to me?" "I wonder how Akira is doing." "When I go visit Akira, I meet a guy who also wants to see her." "Next episode:" "A Fish's Life, A Human Life." "Hey, Akira..." "Sudo is a nice guy, isn't he?"
