"I heard a terrible noise." "Shiina Mashiro-sama" "I get it." "This is how it works..." "I heard something snapping inside me." "The world isn't fair." "My body creaked... it's still not enough." "I felt like my heart was being ripped in two." "it's pointless." "The only thing I could do to protect myself... was to take my pain out on someone else." "There was nothing we could do! but..." "Maybe that's who I am." "Graduation Ceremony 1)}#22 Run Through Those Sparkling Days" "kouhai-kun." "Senpai." "The graduation ceremony's today!" "Let's show some enthusiasm!" "The graduation ceremony really is happening today." "Misaki." "I'll come after I have something to eat." "Okay." "You should wake Mashiro-chan soon." "She won't have time for breakfast otherwise." "kouhai-kun!" "Food is the source of our power!" "Let's stuff ourselves silly!" "Kouhai-kun looks down." "That's why we've got to keep it together." "right." "Mashiron's Room" "Please Knock" "I..." "Kanda-kun." "good morning." "Good morning." "Are you okay?" "How about you?" "huh?" "I feel a lot better." "Really?" "Try not to remember how I looked when I was crying." "Because you looked grody?" "I don't like you when you call girls ugly." "I wish I could forget about what happened yesterday..." "I wish I could relive yesterday." "Kanda-kun?" "Sorry." "Forget I said anything." "Sorry..." "I've got to wake Shiina." "Okay." "Shiina." "I'm opening the door." "Shii—" "Shiina?" "Kanda-kun?" "Shiina's missing." "Mashiro left this morning." "Why?" "Sakura Hall is being torn down because of Shiina." "It's obvious." "Mashiro knew?" "Why?" "Why didn't you stop her?" "I asked her if she talked it over with you. she wouldn't have cared how you felt." "Mashiro has changed..." "Even if it's for the worse in this situation." "It's all my fault." "Her GPS says she's at school." "Mashiro-sama:" "Locked on!" "Are you sure?" "Leave it to me." "kouhai-kun!" "Huh?" "What?" "Let's go to school!" "too?" "See you later." "Shiina Mashiro-sama" "29th Suimei University of the Arts High School Graduation Ceremony" "Mashiron!" "Which way?" "30 meters to Mashiro-sama." "30 meters?" "In which direction?" "That's the art room." "All out dash!" "Mashiro!" "This is Mashiro's..." "Did Mashiro-chan paint this?" "She must have." "Is this me?" "it is." "And the rest of us." "Mashiro's amazing." "She really is." "Not even..." "Not even the most... famous painters throughout history could have painted this." "This painting is the love Mashiro feels for Sakura Hall." "But..." "Why?" "Why?" "!" "Why are you the only one missing?" "But that's why I understood..." "I will protect Sakura Hall." "Just how strongly Mashiro felt... when she said those words that day." "Mashiro-chan planned to protect Sakura Hall... by leaving if we failed to get enough signatures." "This isn't right!" "This isn't the Sakura Hall I love!" "What kind of goodbye is this?" "There's no point if it ends like this!" "Kanda-kun." "you'll have to tell her that." "Yes!" "Okay!" "Operation:" "Search for Mashiron begins! it's unlikely she's returned to England on her own." "Has she ever even ridden a train by herself?" "Let's check out places in the area Mashiro might visit. search the school and the surrounding area." "What?" "I'll search the station." "I'll go with you." "Make sure you're back for the graduation ceremony." "I'm determined to get you to give me the most magnificent send-off!" "I'll bring Mashiro back!" "too." "Mashiron!" "then." "you take the area from the shopping mall to the station." "I'll check the area around the convenience store." "Gotcha." "Call me if you find Mashiro." "Kanda-kun!" "What's wrong?" "Your promise to listen to... what I had to say once I got the results of my audition..." "I remember." "I..." "I've always... always..." "I've always been grateful I got to meet you." "Aoyama..." "I've been able to work so hard up to now because you were there." "Looking at your face gave me energy." "Hearing your voice made me optimistic." "I was always watching you." "Hearing you compliment my clothes and hair made my feelings soar." "The days we talked a lot... made me feel like I could try that much harder." "So..." "Thank you for giving me the will to work so hard!" "I feel the same way!" "Because of you..." "I know." "That's why..." "You should tell Mashiro how you feel!" "Aoyama." "The reason I've been able to work so hard until today..." "Kanda-kun." "Mashiro-chan!" "Mashiron!" "Baumkuchen" "Did the girl who always buys these come in today?" "Mashiro!" "Searching on foot is ineffective." "anyway?" "How can I help?" "Send an email to the former freeloader." "Shiina felt responsible for Sakura Hall being torn down and ran off." "Do you have any idea where she might have gone?" "Request received." "Incoming Call" "Former Freeloader" "Where are you?" "That's your first question?" "It's only natural for me to be suspicious... since this isn't an international call." "hm?" "A hologram?" "Want to touch me and find out?" "S-Stay away from me!" "That's no way to treat someone who was worried about you." "Don't patronize me." "Isn't there something you'd like to say to me?" "I'm grateful." "I can't hear you." "forget it." "I was surprised." "When you emailed me saying you wanted to do... something for Jin and Misaki..." "Sorry about that." "I like how you can't admit your feelings." "E-Enough of your jokes!" "Let's look for Shiina." "Mashiro's fine." "How can you be so sure?" "Mashiro doesn't give up so easily... on something once she's decided she wants it. she's actually the world's most selfish and stubborn sore loser." "Burnable" "Someone already came asking me to subscribe to the paper." "Hey." "What a warm welcome." "You know why." "You shouldn't act so immaturely in front of children." "I came to apologize for that." "I feel badly about what I did to Kanda-kun." "No one told me another team was trying to hire Shiina-san. isn't doing something about it your job?" "There's nothing I can say." "Kanda isn't here." "This place hasn't changed." "And your habit of ignoring everything you don't want to hear... either." "I heard they were going to tear Sakura Hall down." "What did I just say?" "Is there anything I can do to help?" "Nope." "we don't need your help." "Why not?" "They'll do something about it themselves." "You didn't find her?" "but..." "Let's go look outside the school." "No." "They left us at school so we wouldn't... be late to our graduation ceremony." "Let's trust them with this." "there's something we have to do." "You're right." "You two always get along so well." "who we always see together." "W-We're not..." "Here." "For you." "It's a love letter from me." "You're not going to look at it?" "there's no need to read it." "your boyfriend is so cool." "Of course he is." "Mr. Former Student Council President." "Sorry." "don't get me involved." "you can do it." "Hau-hau." "Mashiro!" "it's Kanda's boy." "Have you seen Mashiro?" "She was heading towards the station about ten minutes ago." "Thank you." "but you can do it!" "Youth is for exploding!" "I always thought it was kinda boring... that every day was the same." "I pretended it was someone else's fault that nothing happened." "I realized... you can change the color of the world in an instant." "Hey..." "What color do you want to be?" "I..." "I'm..." "Mashiro?" "you!" "I'll pay later!" "Mashiro!" "What are you doing?" "Sorata... why?" "Because you suddenly disappeared!" "But Sakura Hall will be torn down if I stay." "I don't care!" "It's fine!" "It's not fine. but we didn't fill the whole notebook." "Mashiro..." "We have to fill it." "It's okay." "It's all my fault." "but Sakura Hall will be torn down... too..." "You hate me." "I..." "No..." "I don't want to stay at Sakura Hall if it will make you hate me." "I don't." "I don't hate you!" "You do!" "Just listen!" "Sorry." "I think what I said yesterday was how I really feel." "I'd been thinking it for a long time now." "I was jealous of you because you had everything I wanted." "why is it always you? I almost thought I hated you sometimes." "But that's not all!" "I was able to find my own goal!" "but I failed and was disappointed." "But all of that made for the greatest of days!" "I never would have known these feelings!" "That's why I love you for teaching me all of these things!" "I love you!" "I'd never hate you!" "Don't go!" "No..." "Sorata!" "Mashiro?" "I..." "I want to be with you." "You can." "I want to stay at Sakura Hall." "You can." "Sakura Hall will be torn down." "and I'll hurt you." "You can hurt me." "I made Nanami endure so much after the audition." "I don't want to stay at Sakura Hall if it will hurt someone." "What are you talking about?" "Aoyama." "Don't act like my frustration is your own." "Failing the audition is my own problem." "Mine alone." "This experience is all mine." "But..." "Ignoring Kanda-kun's warnings... and pretending I was fine were my own decisions." "You shouldn't feel responsible for me." "Aoyama." "You don't have to be so harsh... shut up." "are you mad?" "Do I look like I'm not mad?" "Mashiro..." "I'm really happy you were worried about me." "Nanami." "Thank you." "It makes me really happy." "So I won't let you just leave." "Nanami." "You're such a handful." "But it's my fault Sakura Hall is going to be torn down." "but I have to." "you don't have to go." "I've never felt like this before." "I don't understand." "My chest hurts." "I always feel terrible." "It must have been painful." "Yes." "you can tell her." "she's not going to break." "right... aren't you?" "Mashiro." "What?" "You don't understand Sakura Hall at all." "I understand." "you don't." "I do!" "The Sakura Hall I'm talking about isn't that rundown building." "Akasaka and you are there." "Sorata..." "It's Sakura Hall because everyone is there." "what I'm trying to say is—" "I understand." "Really?" "Yes." "Sakura Hall is Sakura Hall because everyone is there." "We're all Sakura Hall." "so..." "I'll always stay at Sakura Hall." "Nanami." "Thank you." "You said I made you happy." "Yeah." "too." "Thank you." "Of course." "We're friends." "friends." "Mashiro." "Hey." "Nanami." "What are you talking about? but you should probably head to school soon." "What?" "Rita?" "everyone?" "What are you doing here?" "the time!" "The graduation ceremony is starting." "no!" "Let's go!" "Mashiro." "Ryunosuke." "I'm coming." "I don't want to go!" "Mashiro." "What? but today is a specific color." "I want the graduation ceremony to be the color of cherry blossoms."
