Because I just happened to have you with that man...
My entire life was ruined!
This isn't random.
None of this is random!
I didn't "just happen" to be born, or to end up here...
And I'm going to get back... Riria...
To protect you!
She's really something.
Her left arm's broken, but she still strikes with it.
This bitch is hell...
Hellishly strong!
Sacrificing her left arm to take out my arm.
What the hell is she made of?
Now we're even!
What?!
That won't work.
Too bad for you.
I told you...
I don't feel anything right now but the pain from that day.
Even if my arm is broken...
It won't slow me down!
You're the one finished here!
What in the world is she?
Why won't she drop?
Her left arm's in pieces.
She's battered head to toe.
She shouldn't even be able to stand!
So, what, you don't feel pain either?
No, it hurts like hell.
But... what about you?
Do you really not feel anything?
Or are you just using that as an excuse while running from the pain?
Running? From the pain?
I won't run away.
I'll never lose.
I'll never lose... to someone like you!
"I don't feel anything."
The hell you don't!
You and me both...
Even if we tell ourselves that...
Even if we don't want to feel anything...
We're still human.
Right?
I'm sorry.
It's too late for me to save you.
But...
That hurts...
It hurts like hell.
What the hell is this?
This is your answer, Oogami.
At the very least... I'll end it for you.
Episode 12 "The Final Ability"
Why...
What happened?
My ability's... gone?
Ability Sealed
Sad news for Team Green!
Team Red has used fifty Mion Points
to seal Yuuri Amagake's ability!

I'm going to die soon.
And I exploited that.
I released the slaves nearby to make it look like I'd lost my ability.
You can't beat him.
That girl and her friends are finished.
The reason I said that, to get you to hurry to your allies' side,
was to distract you from my real interface.

I've carried out your last request.
Akira Shiroyanagi...
I won our final mind game.
You win too,
Ichi.
I wonder. How will this end up?
Stop, Oogami!
Team Green has used one Mion Point to execute a shout action!
This message is being broadcast to everyone in the area.
So you're still out there,
Akira Shiroyanagi?
What in the world are you doing, Akira?
Don't kill Yuuri and the others.
I have a proposal if you don't.
A proposal?
I'm Green's king.
I'm heading your way now.
Let's finish things one-on-one.
If you kill Yuuri and the others,
I'll kill Kuroiwa and disappear.
Kuroiwa's already out of the running.
If I hunt his freed slaves, I can earn 15 MP.
That will let me find you at any time.
As long as I hide, you have no way of winning.
But if you don't harm Yuuri and the others,
I'll appear before you right now.
I see...
I wish we could make a kingdom for ourselves,
just like in the book.
Let's do it, then!
We'll make a free kingdom, where we can do whatever we want!
Is that you, Oogami?
Yeah.
Can I assume this means you accept my proposal?
Kuro's dead either way, right?
Forget that bargaining chip.
Kuro wouldn't try to stop me from fighting the way I want.
Sealing her ability was his way of telling me...
Create our kingdom.
Nothing else matters.
That was all we had.
Wasn't it, Ichi?
Idiot.
What's the point of having our kingdom if you aren't in it?
Fine.
I still have to finish you off either way.
If I do this...
Having you appear before me is to my benefit.
Kuro'll be so mad at me.
I accept your proposal.
You killed Kuro, so I'll kill you.
And that's the end of it!
I want proof that she's alive.
Let me talk to Yuuri.
Akira Shiroyanagi
Yuuri. Can you hear me, Yuuri?
Aki...ra?
You okay?
I'm sorry. I...
I'm on my way now, Yuuri.
You hear me?
To take my place?
Yes. Leave it to me.
Akira Shiroyanagi
Come on quick.
Don't be late or I'll kill them all.
And don't do anything stupid.
You can't! It's too reckless!
He'll be all right.
I believe he can do this.
Akira!
Yuuri's out. Akira's facing Oogami one-on-one.
Seems pretty hopeless.
But Akira... I know ya can...
We're reaching the finale, it seems.
But it doesn't matter who wins.
Not to me, anyway.
Hitting the climax, huh?
Show me a good time.
Thinking back...
Kuro was worried about you from the start.
Guess this was inevitable.
Perhaps.
Yes, he's right.
We've been through a lot, but where I've ended up...
No, where I've brought myself to...
is here, where Yuuri is.
Akira...
My kingdom's gone, and I got my answer.
Sorry, Kuro,
but it seems I've had enough.
I want to avenge you.
That's all I need...
to murder him!
That's right... Kuro said it...
His real ability isn't the cannon.
But that doesn't matter to us!
Watch me, Kuro!
I'll smash through anything he brings and win!
Yes, I bet you would.
That's why I decided on this.
My final ability of this battle...
Let's go, Yuuri!
What?!
We're the winners here!
You got it wrong, Akira.
You gotta punch with the hips, not just the arm.
But are you sure this will work?
Basing this ability off what I imagine...
Testing your quintuple ability before
made it clear I can't fight freely with it.
But this should be easy for you to imagine,
and if I can just hit him with one punch in a moment,
and spend the rest of my time practicing,
it should work out.
But you won't be able to hit him if you can't move.
In the circumstances under which I'd use this, I can just land a counter blow.
An instant strike will overpower Oogami's speed and defenses.
The ability we use together...
Decuple physical ability strike!
Is this the end?
I lived a rotten life.
But, Kuro...
I gotta say...
It wasn't a bad time.
Let's do it, then! A place where we belong!
Yeah...
It was right there all along.
Our...
That hurts.
It really hurts.
Tell that hellishly strong girl...
Those kids that my scars remind her of...
Tell her to help 'em out.
Capture of interface of Team Red's king, Oogami, confirmed.
Battle quest "Hunt the King" ends with Team Green the victor!
Heck yeah!
Leader!
Yuuri... I...
I'm sorry.
I know.
But you still came in the end.
I believed you would.
Congratulations, Akira Shiroyanagi.
Sorry to interrupt the fun,
but as this quest's king,
there's one last job I need you to do.
Job?
There's a place you need to go to receive your team's reward and discuss what comes next.
You might even learn a little more about what you want to know!
What are you doing?
We're taking you on stretchers.
Don't struggle.
Don't worry.
You can see them again once your role as king is done.
There are some preparations to make, so I'll be waiting in that tower.
If I keep moving through the program,
I can get closer to their core
and to Mion.
Just as I thought.
I'm not like I was before.
I'll trace them to their origin.
Congratulations on Team Green's victory.
Akira, wasn't it?
Team Blue's leader, Omoto...
What are you doing here?
You promised me 200 points if I participated, remember?
I don't have them myself.
Our team will—
Oh?
Never mind, then.
But I did want to tell you something.
I saw everything.
Well, not everything...
But it was very impressive.
Your cute girlfriend, Yuuri, did have an impressive ability indeed.
But I find your ability similarly intriguing.
Did he see me?
If he did...
Then the reason he's here...
I didn't notice.
Where were you?
Buy time.
Draw out information.
Your teammate Kirisaki participated too, right?
What did he see?
And what's his ability?
What did he see? Unknown Ability
Is it one I haven't seen?
What did he see? Unknown Ability Buy Some Time
Or...
I just need a starting point.
What did he see? Unknown Ability Buy Some Time Information
Then I can intuit it.
What did he see? Unknown Ability Buy Some Time Information What's His Goal?
Hold on a minute.
No need for all that.
If you're interested in my ability,
I'll show it to you.
I think you know it very well.
Now, at this distance, how will you dodge it?
I don't think you can.
Damn. I can't move!
I'm exhausted.
I told you from the start that it was clear how this would turn out,
but you and I can no longer ignore each other's existence.
You owe me 200 points, and your life.
What in the world do you want?
You're going to see Mion, right?
I'm sure she's watching this, too.
Let her know that I'm going active.
Incidentally, I have no interest in you people, or in the program.
My goal is simply
to kill Mion with my own hands.
I need you to help me get there.
If you don't like it, I'll take you off the board.
That's all I wanted to say.
Omoto...
Well, see you in the fourth program...
Mion's sweet prince.
Damn it.
Where did I mess up?
What caused this?
No... long before I met them...
That dream again?
Should I go to school today?
My heart seeks it out.
Forget school.
I want to play a game.
A game to get immersed in, for however long.
A game to escape this reality of mine.
Receive a variety of objectives,
then beat the enemies or clear the obstacles.
Games like that are the only things I can really engage with.
The only thing I can really lose myself in...
My heart seeks it out.
So let's keep it up.
Hey there, Yuuri.
Akira!
Let's keep playing this game.
Nothing's over.
The game continues.
