00:06Ah,大人になってしまいました
00:12あなたは今日に行ったい子供のまま
00:15言葉を吐いてしまいました
00:17私は今後一切取り消せるまま
00:20届かない想いの先に正しさなんてなくて
00:23どうかこのまますれ違う季節の間に
00:26私が泣いてましたきっとそのまま
00:29信じられないで絶望感が
00:32白くなった夜絶えず
00:35黒くなって
00:36ああ何もかんもも変わらないからない
00:39どうしちゃってまたこの瞬間を繋いでた今日は
00:43きっと叶えられますように
00:48Don't stop, I know!だから
00:50バッターダルトチックな心また忘れないから
00:54大人になった私もあなたも変わらないから
00:58前に奪ったダルトチックな心まだ忘れないから
01:03変わってしまった私も私だから
01:07後悔と狙った祈り
01:10自由で私何も分からないから
01:13変わった想い信じて正しい私はないから

03:43I don't get boys at all.
03:45Fuyumura?
03:46Huh?
03:47Something wrong?
03:48No, it's nothing. I'm good.
03:56Gotta leave for a bit. I'll be back.
03:58Fuyumura, wait!
04:13I can't let him put himself in danger for us anymore.
04:29He willingly risked his life over and over again just to protect us.
04:35Wanting Santa to come back to help my family was so damn selfish of me.
04:40Huh?
04:44Hey! What the heck do you think you're doing?
04:46Well, you wouldn't open the door, so I figured I'd try the window.
04:50You know me. I don't give up.
04:51What if someone sees you out there? Get down!
04:54Only if you say we're friends again!
04:56No way! Santa should only visit kids once a year, and as far as I'm concerned, that's enough!
05:01Well, I'm not like the Santa stereotypes you heard of!
05:04I'm bigger, stronger, and nothing can kill me!
05:06And, like, without you, I can't do any of this!
05:11Okay?
05:13He's super loud.
05:15Knows exactly what to say to cheer you up.
05:18And he's honest.
05:20Santa,
05:20how many times are you gonna save me?
05:26With that over-the-top Santa-ness,
05:28it's always been a part of you.
05:29You know, this might be the first time I'm doing something Santa would do.
05:35Did you hear that just now?
05:37Uh-uh.
05:37What?
05:40It's a guy in a red hoodie!
05:48Oh, man!
05:49Guess I shouldn't talk so loud.
05:51Crap, where are you going?
05:55Santa!
05:56Grab my hand!
06:03If it weren't for me,
06:06you wouldn't even stand a chance!
06:10Your door's way too easy to kick in.
06:12Perfect timing!
06:13You guys make up?
06:15Yes!
06:16We did!
06:17I figured.
06:18Got any braddy beans on you?
06:20Uh-uh.
06:20No matter how stubborn you were being about it,
06:24I knew you weren't gonna bail on him for good.
06:27You're right!
06:27I shouldn't have done it!
06:28But I'm gonna drop him if you don't help me!
06:35Santa!
06:36Okay, what was that?
06:38It's the red hoodie guy!
06:40What?
06:40Where?
06:41Oh, man.
06:42The three of us are still a team, right?
06:46Uh-huh.
06:47He's our Santa.
06:49And he needs us.
06:50That bush punched me right in the face!
06:57Yachtyuda.
06:59While you still can,
07:01I want you to tell me exactly what you were up to
07:04while I was fighting Santa Claus.
07:07Speak up.
07:08I'm listening.
07:09Well, sir, about that.
07:12You see, I kind of thought...
07:13I gave you an order.
07:16I said I wanted him captured.
07:17I also said, if you failed to capture him, I would insert my heart into you.
07:24I could explain.
07:26The truth is, like most adults, I was fast asleep.
07:32He's not gonna buy that!
07:34See, the thing is, if you want my heart in you that badly, I can perform the operation immediately.
07:43Think of an excuse so you're never gonna get out of this line.
07:46The truth is, I hate you more than you know, Headmaster Oshibu.
07:54Whenever I look at you, I always think it's insane.
07:59How can he be so young and handsome?
08:01Well, I'm just getting older and uglier from one crappy year to the next.
08:08Fact is, I wish Santa would kill me and put me out of my misery.
08:12I feel so ashamed.
08:15I spent so much time being jealous of you, I forgot all about my duties.
08:20I hate myself for wanting that disgusting old fairy tale to snuff your handsome lights right out.
08:25You, the handsomest dude on the planet.
08:28Curse my dark and twisted soul.
08:31Interesting.
08:34Keep talking, young Yoda.
08:36I hate how handsome you are.
08:39Don't stop.
08:41Santa Claus is so old and decrepit, but each day, you look younger.
08:47You are the definition of handsome.
08:49Keep talking.
08:50More.
08:51Your skin's so soft, like ice cream, and all I want to do is lick it.
08:56This feeling, it can only be oxytocin.
09:00Yes, here it comes.
09:02The secretion of oxytocin is the most direct and effective way Oshibu has to fade his surgical scars.
09:09When this same hormone is secreted by women in love, they seem to become more beautiful.
09:15For Oshibu, his emotional and physical scars heal and fade.
09:19Honestly, if all you can tell me are things I already know, you are truly useless.
09:31I can't believe sweet-talking him just saved my neck.
09:34For someone like you, continuing as my personal spy at this academy is the perfect job.
09:40That said, allowing this old and ugly Santa to keep strutting around is bad for my skin.
09:46But I have a solution.
09:48What's that?
09:49I have far more useful assets here at Daikoku Welfare Academy than you.
09:57The kind of assets who are better suited for the task of killing Santa Claus.
10:04Kazi!
10:05I want you to guess.
10:07Is this my I just pinched a huge loaf face, or my I love Kazi to frickin' bitch face?
10:12The correct answer is both!
10:16Why didn't you know that? You're supposed to be my fiancé!
10:21Man, that typhoon left a huge mess, so quit goofing off and help clean off!
10:26Woo!
10:27The world's so pretty now!
10:29I feel like I'm high!
10:32Nico, look out!
10:34Ow!
10:39Are you okay?
10:40Yeah, sorry.
10:41Thanks for catching that.
10:43Jeez!
10:44You're blind or something!
10:45Watch where you're going!
10:46You hit her!
10:47No, she's right.
10:48It's my fault.
10:49I wasn't looking.
10:50I'm super sorry.
10:52You see, I was taking these things back to my class and tried to do it in one trip.
10:57I should be more careful.
10:58What is it about her?
11:01We can give you a hand if you want.
11:03No way!
11:04Yes way!
11:05I don't wanna...
11:07Well, if it's not too much trouble for you, that'd be great.
11:11I found someone here who doesn't leave a horrible first impression!
11:19Oh, the semi-basement.
11:21I forgot there was a classroom down here.
11:24It's a huge campus, so I don't blame you.
11:27It's quiet though, and we all really like that.
11:31What are you gonna do with these potted plants?
11:33The Typhoon thrashed them pretty bad.
11:36Yeah.
11:36We left them out on purpose, though.
11:39Anyway, come in.
11:42Welcome to Year 2 Class 10's room.
11:45Could you put that here on the teacher's desk?
11:48Oh, yeah, sure.
11:49You two helped me out so much.
11:51I really appreciate it.
11:53Class 10?
11:54Aren't there only five second-year classes?
11:56Oh, this is one of those classes they put kids who've killed a grown-up or two.
12:02Huh?
12:04Um...
12:05Yeah, we all committed...
12:09You know.
12:10But not a lot of folks.
12:12Just a few.
12:13I did, in fact.
12:16Everyone here has killed grown-ups.
12:19She killed...
12:21I am...
12:22Uh, it's not that big of a deal, guys.
12:24Honest.
12:25And don't look so shocked.
12:26It makes things so awkward.
12:28Why didn't I see it before?
12:31Deliberately hurting plants.
12:33Desks facing the wrong way.
12:36It's obvious if you look around.
12:38Something ain't right here.
12:41Come on.
12:42Let's head back, Kazi.
12:44Oh, yeah, you're right.
12:45We should go.
12:47Bye!
12:48That's the Youth Protection Act, Maria.
12:50If a kid happens to kill a grown-up, it's not considered a crime.
12:54That's the law.
12:55Oh, you guys are so lucky.
12:57You'll get to totally cut loose in this era and have a blast.
13:02What the...
13:03Hey, um...
13:06Can someone unlock this?
13:07Like, now?
13:09My name's Fumi Namatame.
13:11Open this door, dammit!
13:13Sorry, I can't.
13:15We wanted to ask you something first.
13:16We heard a rumor that you regular class kids have a very interesting student with you.
13:23Class 10's been searching all over for him the past couple days.
13:27Apparently, the Santa Claus has been hiding out at this school.
13:32Have you heard about that, too?
13:34Santa?
13:36Santa?
13:37At our school?
13:39Ha!
13:40You gotta be kidding, right?
13:42You don't actually believe Santa Claus is real?
13:45Namatame, you sweet, naive thing!
13:48Oh, I mean...
13:50I guess that's why it's a rumor.
13:53Oh, well.
13:54We really hoped we could talk to him.
13:56You guys are so silly!
13:58Two normal girls having a conversation!
14:00Okie dokie.
14:04Does that mean we're both free to go?
14:05Yeah, of course.
14:07Sorry to keep you.
14:08Thanks for the chat.
14:09It was nice to meet you.
14:10Bye-bye.
14:12Bye-bye.
14:13Ow!
14:14Ha ha ha ha!
14:17I won't stop waving till you do!
14:19Bye-bye!
14:20Does she...
14:23seem like she could kill a grown-up?
14:27Like...
14:32Wow!
14:32I almost cracked my pants!
14:34All those freaks were killers!
14:35Wait, you mean you were scared?
14:37Of course I was!
14:38Do you think I know how to defend myself?
14:40I was ready to surrender to him!
14:43I heard the rumor there was a class 10 around here.
14:46But the scariest thing ain't a class full of kids who legally killed grown-ups.
14:50Oh, no.
14:51The scariest thing about it is that two desk girls their leader.
14:54I guess so?
14:55If I said sexpot, what's the first image that pops into your head?
15:00Huh?
15:00If you said what?
15:01It ain't who you think, that's for sure.
15:04Sexpots ain't the girls with big knockers and tight clothes?
15:07Nah, the plain Jane-looking ones are the real horn dogs.
15:10And...
15:10the point of the story is?
15:12The point is that women are really good at hiding their true nature!
15:16I know you're just a guy and you're easy to fool, but get a clue!
15:19Hold up.
15:20It's gone!
15:22My little kitty's missing.
15:23That big-ass keychain of yours?
15:26Where'd you lose it?
15:28The killer classroom!
15:31Oh, man!
15:31I ain't going back there!
15:34I'll go back and get it.
15:36Yeah, it's scary here, but I can't forget what the director lady told me.
15:44If you really want to change this academy for the better, there's a way.
15:49You're gonna have to face the denizens of the underworld.
15:52The academy's underworld, that is.
15:55Underworld?
15:57Survive then, and I'll agree to train you.
15:59Bet she meant the semi-basement.
16:03Time to face the denizens...
16:06Of the underworld.
16:10Oh, well.
16:11We really hoped we could talk to him.
16:13That's right!
16:17I faced one!
16:18I can go and tell the director I did!
16:20I'll just turn into a kid again, and get Nico's kitty back!
16:23I can't believe it!
16:38Our prayers have finally been answered!
16:41Um, so, uh, are you...
16:43Are you that person?
16:44I'm that idiot.
16:46I, uh...
16:47Wait, you probably have to keep that a secret.
16:49You don't have to answer.
16:50Gosh, we heard so many stories about how the regular class kids got to see you in action up there.
16:57Some of us thought you wouldn't visit us, class tenors.
16:59But since you are who you are, I knew you don't discriminate between kids.
17:03We've all been dying to meet you!
17:06Has any kid ever looked at me the way she is?
17:09With their eyes full of hope?
17:11No, they haven't.
17:12Would you like some tea, Santa?
17:14Maybe she killed a grown-up out of self-defense,
17:17because they were hurting her, or something.
17:19Hope Green Tea's okay.
17:21Oh, I'm... I'm fine.
17:22Don't trouble yourself.
17:23It's no trouble at all.
17:25We're thrilled you're here.
17:28Grown-ups never come to visit us down here.
17:31It gets pretty lonely.
17:33We figured if we wished hard enough for you to come, one day you would.
17:36So we kept hoping and praying.
17:39Most grown-ups are scared of us and think we're gonna kill them.
17:42That includes our own teacher.
17:44All my classmates here in ten have been feeling so alone.
17:49And we just want to let you know how much this means.
17:52If you've been hoping to see me for so long, there must be something that you want.
17:57Go on, tell me your wish.
17:59Wish?
17:59You mean, like, for a present?
18:02For real?
18:03Please, if you're the real Santa Claus, you should already know that.
18:06Anyway, before we start tearing into our present, your tea, Santa.
18:17Nico Kazo.
18:19Hey, Fuyu.
18:21Amaya.
18:22We've been trying to find Santa.
18:24Got any idea where he is?
18:26Yeah, kinda, sorta.
18:28Class 10?
18:30But it's full of murderer kids.
18:33That's the most dangerous place in this whole school.
18:35Easy!
18:37I feel bad enough I let him go down there alone.
18:39So don't bite my head off!
18:40Holy crap!
18:42Fuyamura and I are gonna go down there and check on him!
18:44You wait here for us!
18:48She took off her boot.
18:50Hey!
18:50You can't do that!
18:52Piss off.
18:53It's an emergency and I can't run fast with boots on.
18:56Let's go, Amaya!
18:59Hey, wait!
19:00I'll just use the stairs like a normal person.
19:07So, Santa, do you have any idea why boots are part of our uniform?
19:13The leather's so stiff and heavy, putting them on and taking them off is always a pain.
19:19Literally.
19:20At Daikoku Academy, there are shackles.
19:23Wait, shackles?
19:25The kids that grown-ups prefer the most are the kind of kids who are so meek, they don't complain about wearing these things.
19:33Which is why it's against school rules to take them off during class time.
19:37Hard to believe, huh?
19:39None of the kids seem to notice.
19:41They're not really students.
19:43They're prisoners.
19:44They enjoy their time here, never knowing the truth of this place.
19:48While kids like us, who rebelled against the grown-ups, are sent here, to the semi-basement.
19:55Please say you'll help us, Santa.
19:58I beg you.
19:59Ever since I became Santa, I'm always surprised at how small kids really are.
20:06What... what can I do to help you?
20:11A long time ago in Japan, Santa would visit kids and leave presents in their socks or shoes.
20:18So, Santa...
20:20Tell me what you want! Go on!
20:24What we all want are your thumbs.
20:27Of all the fingers, thumbs are the worst to be without.
20:31That's our wish.
20:33You can put them right in here.
20:35It's what we want, more than anything.
20:37Santa's thumbs.
20:39Heck, you can even use this.
20:41Cut them off right here, right now.
20:44Hang on!
20:44Once I give you my thumbs, what are you gonna use them for?
20:47How can you ask what a kid's gonna do with their toy?
20:50That makes no sense at all.
20:53I mean, you are Santa, aren't you?
20:57You think my thumbs are toys?
20:59The hell's your problem?
21:00No problem.
21:01Kids decide how they play with their toys, that's all.
21:04Holy crap, either she's crazy or she likes messing with grown-ups.
21:08I can't take her seriously.
21:09Or maybe I should.
21:11Wait, no!
21:12Boot's empty.
21:13Where's our wish at?
21:14What do I do?
21:17I'm all confused.
21:19Why am I considering it?
21:21My Santa instincts are making me!
21:31Both thumbs?
21:33Yes.
21:34If a kid wishes for something with all their heart, Santa has to...
21:38Please, Santa?
21:41Santa has to give a kid their wish, don't I?
21:45Isn't that right?
21:46Oyumura!
21:47This class 10?
22:02Sorry about the mess.
22:04We knocked a bunch, but no one wanted to open up.
22:08I hope we're not intruding.
22:09I hope we're not intruding.
22:39I hope we're not intruding.
23:09I hope we're not南端, but nobody wants to see him.
23:10I hope to see him as in the morning, but...
23:11I'm not ready for it.
23:12I can't do it.
23:13If you're like, I can't do it.
23:14I can't do it.
23:14I can't do it.
23:15If you're excited.
23:15I could feel like you're leaving.
23:16Can I see you?
23:17If you'restone, I can't do it.
23:19I can't do it.
23:20I can't do it.
23:21If you're gonna like, for more thoughts, it is my life.
23:22I can't do it.
23:24And if you're so lazy and you stay in all your life.
23:27Can I see you like it?
23:30And when I know you're listening, I can't do it.
23:32I'm on every day
23:34Again, this is every day
24:02I'm on every day
