"They were found in the basement of a torn-down hospital." "Among the human subjects were Manchurians, white Russians," "even Japanese." "The Sylvian fissure of the right temporal lobe." "Electrical stimulus is applied to cerebral tissue." "I'm outside me!" "I'm looking down at me!" "He's hallucinating an astral projection." "Still no more than a hallucination." "Out-of-Body  Afterlife Test Report" "What's this?" "They thought the same thing we did." "They saw something..." "Something we can't see." "No hallucination..." "This is no hallucination..." "Mommy." "No!" "Go back to bed!" "Miyuki!" "Kaori!" "This room?" "The day Father died." "I have to call my sister." "What am I doing now?" "Taking my blood pressure." "Oh, so I look like a nurse." "A lot of people do." "Most people think they're in a hospital." "I'm not?" "You died." "That's how it is." "It confuses those left behind because it doesn't feel real to them, either." "Don't worry." "Soon you'll be able to see how it really is." "Follow me." "What?" "Your slippers." "Have we already been found?" "You're still in the car." "When they find you, you won't look so pretty." "Department of Neurosurgery Ota Miyuki, Resident" "How's the other female?" "She's speechless with shock." "Is she a virgin?" "Yes." "You've got to make her eat." "Yes." "KYOFU" "Are you Miyuki?" "Yes, I am." "Hello, I'm Kazushi." "I'm Takumi." "I'm Rieko." "We worried." "There were only 3 of us at the station." "Hattori had said he would cancel if even one of us didn't show." "I'm sorry, I took the earlier train." "I'm Kazushi." "I'm Hattori." "What are you looking at?" "I'm remembering my childhood." "I'm locking up." "We're about to conduct our own executions..." "What?" "That's what we're doing, right?" "Anything to say?" "Where do people who kill themselves wind up?" "I hear it's someplace very scary." "We don't go anywhere, we just disappear." "I'll light it." "Want to get off?" "Wake her up." "I want to talk to her." "Miyuki, do you know who I am?" "Mother?" "I never thought we'd have to meet like this." "You, I can tell." "This isn't the afterlife." "Surely you learned about the Sylvian fissure in medical school." "If you apply electrical stimulation, you hallucinate." "Don't you find it mysterious that function is programmed into the brain?" "The rational process of evolution doesn't explain it." "It holds the key to a new evolutionary path." "For the evolution of human spirituality." "Raise it." "Can you see what you look like?" "Can you see yourself?" "That's just your brain hallucinating." "We're going beyond that." "What's that?" "What are you doing?" "You're going to see what humans can't." "The reality of the world beyond our world." "Stop!" "Stop!" "You wanted to be reborn, didn't you?" "You can't see anything yet." "It will take a little longer for your brain to process the color particles." "Miyuki and Rieko aren't in their quarantine rooms!" "Look!" "This was 1 hour ago..." "Searching for Ota Miyuki" "Are you Ota Kaori?" "Yes." "I'm Motojima." "Thank you for conveying our messages." "This way." "Detective Hirasawa." "I just had an odd report from someone living across the street from Miyuki's apartment." "He says he saw someone in the apartment last night." "My sister?" "Not necessarily." "You didn't go there last night, did you?" "No, I didn't." "The computer." "I had them look into it." "The records from the past 6 months have been erased." "It's erased back to June 23rd, the morning Miyuki went missing." "Erased?" "If she erased it herself, she may have accessed a site she wanted to keep secret." "Or someone instructed her." "What time was it?" "About 1 a.m., I think." "In that window?" "Yes." "Can you have another look?" "I'm not..." "I think there was someone else in the room." "Someone else?" "Why didn't you say that before?" "I'm sorry." "Are you sure it was that window, and not some other room?" "Can you please go stand in that room?" "That room." "Was the other person you saw any one of these?" "Tell me." "That room was pitch black." "But I could see the girl in a hazy light." "Does that happen?" "Do you smell something?" "Yes." "Maybe because it was sealed off." "You're staying here a while?" "My sister may try to contact me." "Well, there's a chance someone's been coming here." "Hopefully your sister." "You should change the lock." "Keep the chain locked tonight." "What is it?" "I've dreamed about this room." "What?" "Since the day my sister went missing." "Every time it's clearer," "like it's the same dream." "Do you think my sister killed herself?" "Why do you ask that?" "Her computer records were erased." "There are sites like that, right?" "This smell..." "Yes." "I think it's blood." "If Miyuki's been visiting that room, will it affect that girl, too?" "The doctor said, during a previous experiment, a patient in the same room had awful dreams with a terrible smell." "It gave me chills just walking past their rooms." "What did you dream about?" "Sister." "Where were you?" "Stop looking for me." "Someone's coming." "This person's very dangerous." "Who was that?" "My sister..." "What are you saying?" "I'm your sister." "We're not..." "Kaori..." "Kaori..." "I got a call from this clinic." "Miyuki's been checked in there." "But she managed to escape." "She's a well-known neurosurgeon." "She's my mother." "I thought Miyuki was your only family." "We haven't seen our mother in years." "Since our father died." "My sister is at Mother's clinic?" "Yes." "It's been a while." "Are you surprised Miyuki's my patient?" "She's just here for tests." "She gets headaches." "When I treated her, she said something a little disturbing." "That she had decided as a child that she wanted to die." "That she didn't feel human the way other people did." "Miyuki never talked like that to us..." "That the reason she's stayed alive, is because she thinks that maybe someday, she'll feel like other people." "My sister told you that?" "Has Miyuki been in touch with you?" "Did you stay here last night?" "Yes." "Miyuki's been visiting here." "You've been dreaming." "What did my sister see?" "What happened?" "Wasn't someone else here?" "My sister." "Miyuki didn't tell me the story I told you." "She told another girl." "Only girls who want to die would tell each other that." "You've been dreaming, too?" "Yes." "I go deep into a forest, where I'm growing something." "I'm not sure what." "Something's growing in the forest." "Was Motojima dating Miyuki?" "He reminded me of your father." "Don't talk about Father." "Something's strange." "Doctor!" "She gave herself a lethal dose of morphine." "The doctor will abandon you, too." "There's no one else." "Neither of the men made it." "Mother..." "What did you do to my sister?" "This is" "where Miyuki had been staying." "Reality exists beyond the world that human senses can perceive." "That's what your father and I always believed." "We wanted to liberate ourselves from these two eyes that confine us and see the real world." "In that moment, humans would become a new species." "The spiritual evolution of human beings." "Is that what my sister wanted to happen?" "Miyuki wanted to be reborn." "Why?" "If I could have tested it on myself I certainly would have." "I needed more than 2 subjects." "Only I can judge whether what their brains are seeing is a hallucination or objective." "But the results far exceeded my expectations." "See?" "It's just like skin." "Everything around her is slowly being affected." "I assume our brains are starting to be affected, too." "But it's strange." "You were away for so long but so powerfully connected." "Sleep there!" "You're capable of tracking down her dreams." "Bring a chair." "Don't worry," "I won't leave you alone." "You haven't slept?" "How far will you follow her?" "We owe her our lives." "Don't we?" "The police are involved now." "The doctor is fearless." "Kaori!" "Kaori!" "Sister..." "Sister!" "It's them!" "I know it's them!" "Forgive me!" "Forgive me!" "It's a dream!" "It's gotten the rest of them!" "Sister, that's..." "Don't!" "Don't go there!" "I'm not dreaming..." "It wasn't a dream, was it?" "Hurry, come!" "Dress her wounds!" "Stop it!" "You might never have been able to come back." "Contact me when you remember what you saw." "Yes." "I have to call my sister!" "What did we see?" "That white light..." "Sister..." "It's not true, that was a dream." "Kaori." "Kaori!" "Don't I smell terrible?" "It's the smell of blood, my sister's blood." "Please, wipe away the smell of my sister's blood." "What happened?" "I met your mother yesterday." "And I learned something that's beyond me." "I think she was always controlling Miyuki." "She used to be so gentle." "But turned into someone completely different." "When we were little she told us stories about vampire movies." "The vampire is always destroyed, in the end." "When it's stabbed in the heart, or it's exposed to light." "She loved the sound of the vampire's final scream as it died." "She said they screamed like that, because they know there is no afterlife." "Humans can't scream like that." "Because we insist there is an afterlife." "That's why she liked vampires." "Take the day off today." "And do what?" "Find my sister." "The house we lived in when Father was alive." "I don't know if it's still there..." "I heard a strange story, too." "At your father's hospital, they operated on a patient with a terminal brain tumor." "It turned into a big deal because it was totally unnecessary." "Father took responsibility and resigned." "After that, he stayed at home and played with us." "He planted lots of flowers in the garden." "One day, he hung himself." "Hirasawa." "Oh..." "Stop." "We used to catch the school bus here." "Kaori." "Sister." "You finally found it." "It hasn't changed at all." "They never found someone to buy it." "Is someone with you?" "Rieko?" "Rieko isn't feeling well so she's been resting in the back room." "What's wrong?" "You look like you've seen a ghost." "I thought I'd never see you again." "That's not true." "You want to sleep with me, but you sleep with my sister instead." "I'm not your sister anymore, right?" "That night, we had a terrifying dream." "We had the same dream." "Come." "Kaori!" "Kaori!" "Kaori!" "Hurry, Kaori!" "Mother..." "After that, we started seeing that white light." "Deep in that forest, too." "Sister..." "What is it that you see?" "You'll see it soon, too." "Is someone there?" "Rieko?" "Hello." "We're already at the house." "Mother's team is here." "You were in on it with them, all along." "All right, I'll explain." "Just bring them here." "The police are coming." "What's this you have?" "No, no..." "That idiot!" "You!" "The other one is in the back." "The other one?" "You're Rieko?" "This..." "She's pregnant." "Rieko was a virgin." "She still is." "That's why she's always hungry." "We've come this far." "We have to burn this place down." "Doctor, I'm done for, right?" "I'm sorry, I'm truly sorry." "Come." "Oh, this thing." "You really fell for it." "Me, before I was reborn." "Did you try to die, the day Father died?" "I showed her the suicide website." "Kaori..." "It's not a fetus..." "This light..." "You go back to your room." "We were shown this, too." "Impossible, right?" "The doctor pulled off what's impossible, unless there's a war." "Amazing." "Who cares what she gives birth to?" "We've pulled off a miracle." "Her own child is taking her virginity." "Your father and I saw it together." "After we saw it, we both realized there was no turning back." "That no one would forgive what we were about to do." "In the end, we tested it on your father." "But he couldn't live with what he could see." "Kaori." "Look." "You can see us." "We weren't watching a film." "They've been watching us, ever since we saw that white light." "They've been watching us the whole time." "Rieko still believes she's in the afterlife." "She's living in eternal damnation in the afterlife." "Rieko will give birth to..." "The afterlife." "We'll all be eaten." "Will we all die?" "Doctor!" "Hattori!" "Doctor!" "My head!" "It's splitting!" "It's talking." "It's talking inside my head!" "Sister." "It's born..." "What are you staring at?" "They're just going to eat us!" "Turn it off!" "They'll see us." "I want to see what you and your father saw." "Please, I don't need anesthesia." "All right." "Kaori, hold my head!" "Stay still now." "What's that?" "What you wanted to see." "Sister." "So there is no afterlife?" "Was Mother right?" "It's just invisible." "All there is is this crazy world?" "That's right, see..." "I realized it when I hit you." "How do you think you look now?" "You were dead even when you were alive." "Just like Mother." "Both you and Mother had been eaten by them a long time ago." "What is this..." "Where do people who kill themselves wind up?" "We don't go anywhere, we just disappear." "Just disappear." "Just disappear." "Just disappear."
