I'm sorry...
I'll do anything you say.
So please...
Don't leave me alone...
I'm sorry.
- Please leave the report here. - So you came running.
- Yes. - Around that time,
- the trunk was shut? - The trunk was open.
- Ah, it was open? - Yes.
- And inside, there is the corpse of the girl. - That's right.
- Are there any suspects? - There's none yet.
- Have you identified her? - No. Not yet.
It might take time at forensics to find if she was murdered.
There is a possibility she was physically abused.
Hmm...
You can tell she's about 16 or 17.
- Hey, let's move the corpse. - We can't conclude this...
We can't conclude this case.
Yes.
Welcome to the Gate of Grudges.
Who's there?
I'm the Gatekeeper of Grudges, Izuko.
[ Episode 2 - Connection ]
Oh. So I died.
Feels like it's not my problem.
Because suddenly I've been told that I'm dead.
It's hard for me to swallow in.
Besides, I'm an idiot.
This is where people that died of accidents or have been murdered come.
The Gate of Grudges.
You have to make a decision between these three choices.
First.
Accept your death and embark to heaven. You will then wait to be reborn.
Second.
You may choose to become a ghost and roam the world.
And finally the third.
You can curse and kill one person in the world.
But if you choose to curse to death, you will need to make to be prepared.
You will end up in hell. Being unable to be reborn, you will suffer in eternal torment.
Scary.
You're scared of going to hell?
I don't know.
I'm sorry.
Um. Is it alright that you make the decision?
That's not allowed.
The decision of the choices must be decided
by yourself.
Do I have to make the decision now?
No. You have time to make the decision.
I wonder what Nan doing right now.
Nan?
I miss Nan.
- Then why don't you go and visit him? - What?
Visit him and find out what happened to you.
You can take a look yourself.
This is the site of the junkyard.
This early morning, in this junkyard, an abandoned
corpse of a young girl was found in the trunk of a car.
We still don't know who the girl is.
The police found out that the corpse inflicted countless wounds before she died.
Sir Mishima, we passed a search report.
But we couldn't find out who she is.
To think a teenager was murdered
there's no report from her family
There's the receipt from a CD shop.
And there's only 237 yen change.
Say, Sakurai.
What is this kind of life with no traces?
Normally, a girl her age would have
some kind of proof that she was alive.
But this is just
a too pitiful sad way to die.
I think so too. If I were the girl
- I don't think I can stand it. - In other words, the current cause of the incident
is the great decrease of communication nowadays.
People are responding to others with no interest.
It's not just about a girl who met a tragic death.
Even the culprit who committed the brutal crime of confined assault.
By being apathetic at home, this results to
- these victims. - What victims?!
A killer is a killer!
We'll be gladly accept electric appliances and accessories free of charge...
Hey! How long will you go sulk like that?
But...
Are you regretting that you had a fight?
Are you thinking that you did something wrong?
You're not right? Then you should stop moping there.
- You're a man, right? - But president.
That should be "Daddy". Besides, connections between people
won't be broken with just one or two fights.
- Connections? - That's "friendship" for example.
"Love" is another. Things like that.
People who really are connected with each other
won't break each other's ties that easily.
Someone is riding at the back of the truck.
What?
There's no one there, see.
- Brat! - Thank you for your patronage.
We are "Lucky Service" visiting your town.
We accept everyday items, furnitures or electric appliances...
Miku.
Nan!
Why...?
Why did it have to come to this...?
To think you really died...
- Nan. - Miku...
What are you saying, Nan!
I'm here!
I'm so sorry... sorry...
Nan.
Why don't you face me?
Nan! Nan!
Yo Nan! Let's head out.
Where are we going?
We're going fishing. We have to get a new toy.
- But... - Huh?
You're shaking?
Hey, let's just go. Come on.
Come on, let's go. Let's go. Alright.
Wait, Nan! Don't go!
Nan...
You're back.
Aren't you lonely?
What do you mean?
You're alone here.
Have you ever thought you're lonely?
I haven't thought about it.
I want to live with Nan again.
We would talk and go shopping.
Please! Make things the way they were!
Why are you that scared of being alone?
I'm sorry.
But...
I just hate being lonely.
Why?
In any case, I hate being alone!
What?
Found you! Oh, you were there?
- Ah! Let's go! - Yeah, let's go.
Chocobar's ice cream is really the best!
That's why we should all go there next time.
Let's go there next time!
- So cool! - Amazing!
Delicious?
Hold it, Ma'am!
Haven't you forgotten something? We would like to talk to you at the back.
- Let go! - Excuse me. Can I talk to her?
I told you. You musn't leave without paying.
I apologize. We'll pay. Come, let's go.
Okay, come on. Walk.
I'm sorry.
No need to apologize.
Besides, I also like that group.
But that was close.
You have to be better if you're going to shoplift.
What? Did I said something weird?
- Wait Sir. - What's wrong?
- Did you forget something? - What?
Have you forgotten to pay for the merchandise we sell?
Would you please go back inside, Sir?
- What? What? - Let's go.
- Wow! That was easy! - Isn't it? It's that simple.
But how did you do that?
- Tadah~ What's that?
The security checkers will beep if you have this.
- I see. - Anyway.
I don't look like it but I'm an engineering student.
- No way. - Really.
Ah. I haven't introduced myself.
I'm Minami.
Friends call me "Nan".
- How about you? - Me?
- Miku. - At that time,
I thought I was the same with scattered pebbles.
Nobody seemed interested to be friends with me.
But I understood.
Things aren't like that when I met Nan.
I felt secure when I'm with him.
I'm not alone anymore.
I'm sure Nan is thinking the same.
We have a connection.
- Say. - Hm?
Is this fate?
- What do you mean fate? - Isn't it a mystery that
we're together like this?
Well, that's what connection between people is all about.
Connection, huh?
What? Are you unhappy when I'm with you?
- I'm very very happy! - Really?
- Let's go here. - This is a boutique? Okay.
Wrong answer. Wrong.
Correct! Try it on.
Here.
- Delicious? - This is delicious!

What do you think? Looks good?
- Looks good. - That also looks good.
- Looks good? - Yeah it does. Yup.
- Let's go then. - Okay.
- Let's go to a photo booth. - Photo booth?
- Yeah. - Ah, but I'm hungry.
- We'll go eat then. - Okay.
- Let's go to a photo booth first. - We should eat soy pork noodles.
- Soy pork then. - Okay!
- Here it comes. - Looks good!
It was fun.
It's the first time I've been that happy.
If you were that happy,
why would you think you were killed?
I was killed?
What do you mean?
So you've forgotten after all.
What do you mean?
You should know it best.
- I'm Jouji. - I'm Jouta.
- Welcome. - Wow. To think
- Nan can't leave this nook. - Really!
And she even made this pretty girlfriend.
Isn't she? She's my treasure.
Anyway, come in. I have something awesome waiting for you guys.
- Okay. - Something awesome is waiting, look.おお すごいの待ってるよ ほら
- Wow! - So good!
This is so good!
So darn good.
Ah! I forgot something.
- Hm? - I have to get back to the university.
I have a report I have to pass.
- Sorry. I'll be going then. - You're going at this hour?
Yeah, at this hour. Deadline is near.
- Have fun. - Okay. Take care.
- I'll be right back. - Okay. I'll see you later.
- Off I go. - Be careful.
Hey, what name did you gave this Santa?
- Lil' Santa. - Sounds right!
Funny, huh?
Let's eat some dessert.
- What? - Of course, we'll take it gladly.
The dessert.
- Anyway, that's how it is. - Anyway, that's how it is.
Hey! Yes, yes, yes. Take them off. Strip.
Okay, let's go. One, two, three...
Nooo!
Yo Nan. What took you so long?
- We ate her ahead of you. - She was delicious.
Miku...
Sorry...
I'm sorry, Nan...
Huh? What's with that look?
He's saying what's with that look!
You shitface!
- Don't fuck with us. - Please stop!
I'll do anything you say!
So please stop!
Please leave Nan alone!
- Anything? - You'll do anything?
I'm sorry, Nan! It's all my fault!
I'm sorry!
- Stay still! - I'm sorry!
- Here I go! - Awesome!
- I'm sorry! Ah! - Shut up, bitch!
- Stay still! - I'm sorry!
What should we do?! She's really dead!
Hey Jouta, what did you do?
Nothing. When I strangled her neck, she really hated it.
Hey. That's true death!
Nice joke, brother!
Why are you two laughing?! She's dead!
- So? - "So?"
- What should we do?! - Well...
- We'll trash her of course. Right? - Right?
Here we are. Off you go~
Hey! Don't just stand there!
Cops will arrive you don't hurry!
You're here again, Sir.
If you don't rest a little, you might get sick.
Yeah.
It's just that this girl...
Even though she died, there's not a single one
who was sad and came to see her.
Some shoplifter like the girl from before.
- I'll leave it to you. - That girl was fine.
She didn't resist and was obedient.
But that endless "I'm sorry" was annoying.
Hey. Let's stop this.
Huh? What are you afraid of?
You take care of a girl, then pass her around to us three.
We've done this countless times.
Hurry and go.
No, no, no, no. Speaking of which,
- there are few people here. - I know right.
Hey, you.
Miku... Whoa!
Why is Miku there? Why...?
Stop!
Is it you, Miku?!
Stop it!
Get out!
Nan...
I really became alone...
What should I do now?
Where should I go?
There's no place...
I can call home...
I really thought I had a connection with Nan.
I have no place I can go.
True.
I somehow feel tired.
Can I lie down a bit?
I suddenly feel sleepy.
You are already dead.
You are now just a spirit.
There is no need for you to sleep.
Besides, I think it's time you decide with the choices.
Nothing will change even if you just let time pass.
- Huh?! We give ourselves up?! - Why?
Because we killed Miku.
Oh. So her name's Miku.
- I didn't know. Right? - Right?
You guys don't feel guilty at all?!
We do. But it was fun!
- Right? - Yup!
- I've had enough. - Hey. Where do you think you're going?!
- The police. - Huh?!
I'll go confess everything to the police.
You can't, Nan.
We did this together and share the same fate.
Why don't you be a good boy.
You also had some fun.
I'm different from you!
I really liked her.
You bastards killed her!
- Wow! - Wow!
What's with you guys!
You two are alright when you're not together.
Why the hell do you become this indecent when you're together!
You can't do anything alone!
He said it in the end.
You said something you should've not said.
How long do you intend to stay like that?
But...
I can't decide.
I don't know what I should do.
I'm sorry.
Why do you apologize?
- What? - You kept on apologizing even before.
You might have lived your life apologizing like that.
But don't forget.
The times when you apologize
are situations when you hurt other people.
If you keep apologizing and running away,
you will always end up being alone.
Seems like he arrived.
Nan!
The resident here is Satoshi Minami, 18 years old.
He started going to prep school half a year ago.
His parents at the countryside started worrying that they were not able to contact him.
We got that report from the landlord.
We heard from the neighbors that several weeks ago,
there were two plump men coming in and out.
Adding that report, that wraps up what we know.
- That must be from the victim. - Yeah.
Hey, do you have that receipt with you.
Ah, yes.
We made a connection with this.
Look. It's the girl.
To think she has someone where she can smile like that.
Am I seeing a dream?
Nan.
Could it be that those two killed you?
Killed?
Me?
I'm sorry, Miku!
I did something horrible!
- I deceived you. On top of that... - Nan.
Please believe me!
We had no intention to kill you!
But I was afraid of them.
- And then... - Enough. That's enough.
- But... - We meet again from what happened.
Miku...
I'm really happy I met you.
So stop blaming yourself.
I've no feelings of grudge at all.
But I just left you there...
I'm sorry... Forgive me..
- I'm sorry... - Stop it. Stop apologizing.
I'm really sorry...
I was really happy, you know.
But if you keep apologizing...
...it's just too sad...
You two can decide from these three choices.
Accept death and embark to heaven.
You may choose to become a ghost and roam the world.
And the last choice:
You can curse and kill one person in the world.
I've decided. I'll go to heaven.
I'll go to heaven and be reborn.
I'll start over living with Nan at the next life.
You can do that, right?
If you choose to be.
Is that decision alright with you too?
I...
What's wrong? Why are you having second thoughts?
It's a chance that we'll be reborn.
Okay? We'll go to heaven together, right?
I can't go with you.
Why? How can you say that?
I will curse and kill them.
Alright.
But if you kill someone with a curse, you will end up in hell.
Being unable to be reborn, you will suffer in eternal torment.
Is that still alright?
Nan!
Forgive me, Miku.
I just can't let them have get away.
Just forget about them!
Let's just go to heaven together.
Okay?
I can't.
They should pay for what they did.
Are you leaving me alone again?
I hate being alone again!
Didn't you cared about me at all?!
I do care!
I care. That's the reason.
I just can't let them get away after they killed you.
Sir Mishima. I found out who the two guys that were going in and out of the apartment.
So they're the Ono brothers, Jouji and Jouta.
- You know them? - Yeah.
They have been arrested five times but been released because of lack of evidence.
They're infamously bad people.
Then what do you think happened to Satoshi Minami who's missing?
They probably already killed him.
They're beasts hiding in human skin.
- Ouch! - Whoopsie!
- Hey, what's wrong? Whoopsie! - Please!
Please stop! If you want money...
I can give you money!
Huh? When did I say that you give me money?
- Then why... - Of course!
- I want to do you of course! - Noo!
That's lame, fool!
Why you!
What's wrong?
What are you guys doing there?
- Oh no. Let's go! - Hey, hey! Wait!
- Hey! Stay there! - Fuck that cop!
Just what the hell's going on?!
Hey, hey, hey...!
Whoa! The hell! Hey!
Whoa! The hell!
Jouta!
Hey, Jouji?
Hey, where are you?! Hey, Jouji!
Hey! Jouji?
Where are you? Hey!
Jouta!
- Jouji! - Jouta!
- Not again! - Not again!
Oh no!
Shit!
Shit! They're fucking with us!
I'll fucking kill you bastards!
Just how did they end up there?
Hmm. It's not something a human could do.
- Have you seen their corpse? - Nope.
They look dreadful.
They looked like they saw hell.
Really. It's the first time I saw corpses with such faces.
Well, I guess it's natural. The two killed people to begin with.
Of course they will end up in hell.
Everyday items, furnitures or electric appliances...
- Hey Daddy. - Hm?
Is our job lame?
What? Where did you hear that?
But a friend said that you always just pick up what other people throwed away.
Ah, so that's the reason you had a fight.
Listen Shoukichi. You see, things that were thrown away
were relics of the people that owned it.
- Relics? - Yup.
Well, you can say they were a connection of the person's life.
So that's why, if they we just leave them after being thrown away,
then their relics will be gone.
That's the reason why I collect them so that they would not be erased.
That's your Daddy's work, you know.
Does that mean this bracelet is also a relic?
So you understand now, huh?
You're great, President! So awesome!
Really? I mean, what did you say?
Now. Are you two ready?
Let's go, Miku.
What?
To be honest, I lied.
My real name is not Miku but Mirai.
The present, past and future's Mirai.
Mirai meaning future.
It's a nice name.
Don't forget. The place you two will go
is an eternal torment in hell, where you can never be reborn.
- There will be no past nor future. - It's alright.
It doesn't matter how difficult it may be.
Now then.
Go!
Izuko.
It seems like you were interested with those two.
Not really. I just didn't understand.
I just think that it is difficult to have a connection with someone.
But then, why did they still think like that even ending up in hell.
Why did they still wish to have that connection?
You see...
That is what makes a human.
That is... human...
