00:00At the beginning of the story, we see two buses driving down the road.
00:04Inside, many schoolgirls are sitting, heading to their class.
00:09Among them is a girl named Mitsuko, who looked quite pretty.
00:13She was writing something in her notebook.
00:16Her friends teased her, saying,
00:18You're always writing, what's the use of it?
00:21Look, everyone else is having fun, why don't you?
00:24Saying this, one of her friends snatched her notebook, and her pen fell to the floor.
00:30As she bent down to pick it up, suddenly something sharp and fast sliced through both buses.
00:36The result was terrifying.
00:38Every single girl on the buses was cut in half.
00:41Only Mitsuko survived, because she was bent down at that very moment.
00:46Horrified, she quickly got off the bus and started running.
00:49That's when we realized the thing cutting through wasn't an object at all.
00:53It was the wind itself, moving like a deadly blade.
00:57And now, that same wind was chasing after Mitsuko.
01:01She screamed and ran away as fast as she could.
01:05While fleeing, she saw four other girls ahead.
01:08They told the others to bend down, but it was already too late.
01:12The wind sliced them in half as well.
01:15One of the girls Mitsuko had tried to save was hit.
01:18Soon after, a group of girls riding bicycles came into view.
01:22They tried to escape, but the wind did the same to them, as it had to Mitsuko's friends,
01:28and the girl Mitsuko had rescued was killed.
01:31Seeing all this, Mitsuko panicked and ran in every direction.
01:35Soon, Mitsuko reached a river.
01:37She froze when she saw many dead bodies floating there, people the wind had already cut.
01:43Shaken, she washed her hands and took a piece of clothing from one of the corpses.
01:47Continuing on, Mitsuko arrived at a school.
01:51There were other female students there whose uniforms were different from hers,
01:55so they weren't from her school.
01:57A girl walked up to Mitsuko and asked how she was.
02:01As it turned out, this girl was actually Mitsuko's best friend.
02:06Mitsuko asked,
02:07Are you really my best friend?
02:10The girl was confused and didn't understand what was happening.
02:14There was chaos everywhere, but we also learned that Mitsuko and her best friend loved each other very much.
02:21A sudden strong wind blew, and Mitsuko ran inside the building in fear.
02:26Her best friend couldn't understand what was happening.
02:29She asked Mitsuko why she was shaking so badly and what was wrong.
02:34Mitsuko told her everything, how a wind had gone through and cut down the children at the school.
02:39Hearing this, her friend led her to a window and tried to calm her, saying,
02:44Look, it's just wind, nothing else.
02:47For a moment, Mitsuko felt some relief and wondered if it might all be a dream.
02:53Then Mitsuko's best friend brought two more friends and they planned to close the class.
02:58As the four of them were about to leave the classroom, their teacher arrived and saw them.
03:04The four girls ran away from her.
03:06The four girls kept running until they reached a lake.
03:10There, Mitsuko's best friend told the other two about her strange dream.
03:14One of the girls suggested,
03:16What if it's real?
03:18Just like a mirror world, where everything is the opposite of what we see here.
03:23Saying this, she threw a stone into the lake and added,
03:27Look, here I threw a stone, but maybe in the other world I didn't.
03:32Suddenly, a crocodile emerged from the lake and dragged one of the girls down.
03:37Shocked, she said,
03:39See?
03:40I told you, what happens in this world doesn't happen in that world,
03:45and what happens there doesn't happen here.
03:47So maybe, in that world, the crocodile attacked me, but here, I'm safe.
03:53Near the lake, they also found a mattress.
03:57The four of them picked up a pillow and began playing with it.
04:00From a distance, two other girls were watching them, one dressed as a bride.
04:06These two had married each other.
04:08One of them said,
04:10We need to do something impossible in this world,
04:13because our fate has already been written,
04:15but if we break the rules, maybe we can change it.
04:19Later, all the girls returned to their school and went to class for the next lecture.
04:25Mitsuko noticed a pillow lying near her desk.
04:29As she bent down to pick it up, her teacher suddenly opened fire on the entire class.
04:34When Mitsuko looked up, all of her classmates were dead.
04:38Once again, she was the only survivor, just like before.
04:44The teacher walked up to her and said,
04:46How dare you try to shut down this class?
04:49Now your death is certain.
04:52Just then, two other girls rushed in and tried to help Mitsuko escape,
04:57but another teacher appeared and brutally killed them.
05:00Mitsuko and the remaining students who survived the shooting ran outside in panic.
05:05But the schoolteacher started firing at them, too.
05:08As soon as the girls reached the exit, the deadly wind struck again, slicing them all apart.
05:14And once more, Mitsuko was left completely alone.
05:18Mitsuko ran through the crowded streets until she finally reached a police station.
05:22She told the officer everything that had happened.
05:25After listening, the female officer looked at her and said,
05:29But you're not even wearing your school uniform.
05:32Then she placed a mirror in front of Mitsuko.
05:35When Mitsuko looked into it, her reflection had completely changed.
05:40People around her were now calling her by another name, not Mitsuko's.
05:45That's when it became clear.
05:46She was about to be married.
05:48The police officer then took her to the wedding.
05:51People surrounded her, congratulating her as they walked her to the church.
05:56To Mitsuko's shock, her best friend was also there.
06:00Mitsuko asked,
06:01What's happening to me?
06:03But her friend whispered,
06:04Stay quiet.
06:06We're under someone's control.
06:08Just do as I say.
06:10She dressed Mitsuko in a wedding gown and pushed her toward the ceremony.
06:14As Mitsuko walked down the aisle, the girls around her mocked her.
06:19Enraged, her best friend snapped, killing the others one by one.
06:24Mitsuko moved closer, only to see a coffin standing where her groom should have been.
06:28She opened it and a giant pig-like creature came out.
06:32Terrified, she grabbed a broken bottle and attacked it.
06:35Her best friend dragged her away, trying to escape.
06:39At the church gates, two girls tried to stop them.
06:42But her friend killed them as well.
06:44Mitsuko kept running, confused and horrified, thinking,
06:48Something is terribly wrong.
06:50Soon, she saw another mirror and realized she had transformed once more.
06:55This time, she was in the middle of a race.
06:57Other girls told her,
06:59You're an amazing runner.
07:00Why aren't you racing?
07:01As she ran, Mitsuko felt powerful energy within her.
07:06She pushed herself to win, but along the track, she saw the dead friends from her old school.
07:11Then, her best friend appeared again.
07:14At the same time, the same strange women from the church were now chasing them.
07:19While running, some girls whispered to Mitsuko,
07:22Leave this world.
07:24Escape before it's too late.
07:27Mitsuko kept running until she reached a dark, empty place.
07:31There, she found students in uniforms who told her,
07:34We're already dead.
07:36Now we'll kill you too.
07:38But once again, her best friend appeared and saved her, killing one of the girls.
07:43She begged Mitsuko,
07:44Say my name!
07:46Call my name out loud!
07:48Mitsuko repeated it again and again, and suddenly, she regained her true self.
07:54Her best friend then showed her the wires attached to her body and pleaded,
07:58Please, pull them out.
08:01Free me so I can leave this world.
08:03But Mitsuko couldn't do it.
08:06She loved her too much and didn't want to lose her.
08:09After being forced, Mitsuko finally pulled the wires,
08:13and her best friend's body was ripped in half.
08:16Mitsuko stumbled through a gate only to find herself in the world of men.
08:21Posters of her were everywhere.
08:23A boy approached her, saying,
08:25You are the future.
08:27You are me overwhelmed, Mitsuko fainted.
08:31When she woke up, she saw an old man playing a video game.
08:34On the screen was Mitsuko's character.
08:37The old man laughed and said,
08:39I created this game.
08:42I am the one controlling you all.
08:45You were long dead, but I recreated you using your DNA.
08:49When Mystiko hears this, she realizes that everything happening is just a game.
08:54She thinks she can now return to her real world.
08:57But at that very moment, a man appears and calls her over.
09:02The old man tells Mystiko to complete her final level.
09:05As she moves forward, she suddenly remembers her friend's words.
09:10We'll do something in this world that's impossible in the real one.
09:14That's how we'll escape the game.
09:17Hearing this in her mind, Mystiko grabs the man by the neck and says,
09:21Stop playing with us!
09:23Then she picks up the old man's weapon and stabs herself with it, dying instantly.
09:30The old man could never have imagined that Mystiko would do something like this.
09:34And with that, her destiny completely changes.
09:38Though she died in the game world, she was still alive in the real one.
09:43Later, we see that Mystiko's other companions also take their own lives for different reasons,
09:49as all of them were part of the same virtual world.
09:52In the final scene, Mystiko is shown lying in a snowy place, back in her real world.
09:58And with that, this mind-bending story comes to an end.
