Natsuko Hirose : After graduating high school, I started working at an anime studio, became an animator, |
(0:00:10.00) |
Natsuko Hirose : honed my craft as much as I could, |
(0:00:15.08) |
Natsuko Hirose : instantly became an animation director, did storyboards, became an episode director, |
(0:00:17.98) |
Natsuko Hirose : then made my debut as a director on a TV series. |
(0:00:22.41) |
Natsuko Hirose : It was such a huge hit, it became a social phenomenon. |
(0:00:39.36) |
Natsuko Hirose : My next work is an original rom-com feature film: HATSUKOI: First Love
. |
(0:00:42.25) |
Natsuko Hirose : There's no doubt it'll be a huge hit. |
(0:00:47.11) |
Natsuko Hirose : Another masterpiece is born. |
(0:00:49.28) |
Natsuko Hirose : Or it should be. |
(0:00:57.15) |
Natsuko Hirose : I need to concentrate. |
(0:01:33.71) |
Natsuko Hirose : Fix all. |
(0:02:26.85) |
Natsuko Hirose : Fix all of them. They all need to be redone. |
(0:02:28.53) |
Natsuko Hirose : Fix all. |
(0:02:32.06) |
Natsuko Hirose : In that case, I'll just do it myself. |
(0:02:39.37) |
Natsuko Hirose : "Her relatives grew worried when they couldn't get hold of Director Tsuruyama, |
(0:03:30.26) |

(0:04:05.28) |
Natsuko Hirose : What? |
(0:04:23.79) |
Natsuko Hirose : A Tale of Perishing. |
(0:04:44.37) |
Natsuko Hirose : The story was seen as super depressing. |
(0:04:46.89) |
Natsuko Hirose : It messed with you mentally and plunged you into a pit of despair, |
(0:04:48.81) |
Natsuko Hirose : so it was a huge flop in the industry's eyes. |
(0:04:52.19) |
Natsuko Hirose : The rest of the world treated it like trash, too. |
(0:04:54.60) |
Natsuko Hirose : The heroic protagonist, Luke Braveheart, |
(0:04:57.70) |
Natsuko Hirose : fights alongside his friends to stop the formation of the Ultimate Void |
(0:05:00.99) |
Natsuko Hirose : that will end the world. |
(0:05:05.41) |
Natsuko Hirose : I've seen it so many times and I still don't get it. |
(0:05:07.67) |
Natsuko Hirose : But that's what's so great about it. |
(0:05:10.22) |
Natsuko Hirose : I wonder who'd play him in a live-action version. |
(0:05:12.72) |
Natsuko Hirose : Luke needs to be someone hot who can do action scenes. |
(0:05:15.30) |
Natsuko Hirose : Oh, hey, I know. That one guy. |
(0:05:18.92) |
Natsuko Hirose : He played a Rider back then. |
(0:05:21.42) |
Natsuko Hirose : I can see his face, but his name escapes me... |
(0:05:24.35) |
Natsuko Hirose : Ju... |
(0:05:50.75) |
Natsuko Hirose : Jun... Kaname... |
(0:05:51.88) |
Natsuko Hirose : What is this place? |
(0:06:28.17) |
Natsuko Hirose : Am I in Hell? |
(0:06:44.90) |

(0:07:42.72) |

to die? |
(0:07:45.15) |
Natsuko Hirose : Huh? Wait, I'm not dead? |
(0:07:46.44) |

Natsuko Hirose : Memmeln and QJ? |
(0:07:55.52) |
Natsuko Hirose : Cosplayers? But those cosplays are so perfect. |
(0:07:57.40) |
Natsuko Hirose : Wow, Unio, you're even giving off an authentic animal smell. |
(0:07:59.72) |
Unio : Animal smell? |
(0:08:03.03) |
Unio : Who is this black-haired gremlin? |
(0:08:04.71) |
Natsuko Hirose : Wait, am I at Comiket? |
(0:08:04.74) |
Natsuko Hirose : Was that other thing some projection mapping? Wow. |
(0:08:07.13) |
Memmeln : I've never seen such strange clothes. |
(0:08:08.30) |
Unio : So just some rubbernecking idiot who came to see a Void. |
(0:08:10.80) |
Natsuko Hirose : What? |
(0:08:13.38) |
Luke Braveheart : What's your name? |
(0:08:16.89) |

(0:08:31.43) |
Luke Braveheart : Listen well. |
(0:08:33.19) |
Luke Braveheart : When you hear the siren, you need to take shelter. |
(0:08:34.27) |
Luke Braveheart : Let's go back to the town. |
(0:08:37.13) |
Unio : Okay! |
(0:08:38.48) |
Unio : Hop on. |
(0:08:44.57) |
Natsuko Hirose : What?! |
(0:08:46.00) |
Natsuko Hirose : W-Wait, how does any of that work? I have no idea what's going on. |
(0:08:47.26) |
Unio : You can just run back, black-haired gremlin. |
(0:08:53.72) |
Natsuko Hirose : H-Huh? What's going on? |
(0:08:58.76) |
Natsuko Hirose : Why's this happening to me? |
(0:09:14.06) |
Natsuko Hirose : Is this some kind of theme park? |
(0:09:29.31) |
Natsuko Hirose : Wait, the mayor? The Last Town? |
(0:09:46.14) |
Natsuko Hirose : Elder Baobab! |
(0:09:53.51) |
Natsuko Hirose : "Since time immemorial..." |
(0:10:03.94) |
Natsuko Hirose : "the ones who can stop..." |
(0:10:06.88) |
Natsuko Hirose : "...the Ultimate Void will save the world, and become the true light to shine upon us all." |
(0:10:10.89) |
Natsuko Hirose : "The Nine Soldiers are, without a doubt, our light!" |
(0:10:18.26) |

(0:10:30.23) |
Natsuko Hirose : The background characters start dancing. |
(0:10:33.85) |

(0:10:36.41) |
Natsuko Hirose : They fly past the Soul Future. |
(0:10:40.60) |
Natsuko Hirose : The Soul Future? |
(0:10:46.11) |
Natsuko Hirose : Wait, is this... |
(0:10:49.41) |
Natsuko Hirose : A Tale of Perishing? |
(0:10:51.76) |
Natsuko Hirose : Luke Braveheart. |
(0:11:00.40) |
Natsuko Hirose : Are you really actually
Luke Braveheart? |
(0:11:02.33) |
Luke Braveheart : And what if I am? |
(0:11:06.57) |
Natsuko Hirose : No way! |
(0:11:08.05) |
Natsuko Hirose : Wait, is this what they call being reborn in another world? |
(0:11:09.57) |
Natsuko Hirose : No, this isn't technically an Isekai. So what kind of rebirth is it? |
(0:11:12.44) |
Natsuko Hirose : Hold up. Was I actually reborn? But why? |
(0:11:16.41) |
Natsuko Hirose : Doesn't that usually only happen to shut-ins and NEETs? |
(0:11:19.51) |
Natsuko Hirose : I actually had a career, and my company provided full benefits. |
(0:11:22.45) |
Natsuko Hirose : I've lived a normal, proper life up till now. |
(0:11:25.55) |
Unio : Hey, black-haired gremlin! This is our
party! |
(0:11:27.07) |
Natsuko Hirose : I didn't do anything wrong. I didn't do anything bad. |
(0:11:27.64) |
Unio : Butt out! |
(0:11:29.62) |
Natsuko Hirose : Hold on. |
(0:11:31.58) |
Unio : Huh? |
(0:11:32.53) |
Natsuko Hirose : If this is the world of A Tale of Perishing
... |
(0:11:33.34) |
Natsuko Hirose : They defeat that giant bug-like Void earlier, |
(0:11:36.41) |
Natsuko Hirose : and after the scene where the crowd celebrates... |
(0:11:39.22) |
Natsuko Hirose : Doesn't a whole army of Voids show up and attack the town? |
(0:11:42.59) |
Unio : Luke, this gremlin's bad news. Best to ignore her. |
(0:11:51.72) |
Natsuko Hirose : Bad news! |
(0:11:56.09) |
Natsuko Hirose : Exactly! This is seriously
bad news! This isn't the time for a party! |
(0:11:56.98) |
Luke Braveheart : Huh? |
(0:12:00.59) |
Natsuko Hirose : The one earlier was just recon. An army of Voids is gonna attack at any minute. |
(0:12:01.37) |
Luke Braveheart : But QJ isn't sensing anything. |
(0:12:05.73) |
Natsuko Hirose : He's charging right now! From now on, QJ will always be charging when he's needed most! |
(0:12:07.86) |
Unio : Hey! Luke is a great hero who's going to save the world! Know your place! |
(0:12:12.53) |
Unio : You and your stupid black hair can go clog a ditch over there. |
(0:12:17.54) |
Natsuko Hirose : How about I clip your wings and make you into an ordinary horse?! |
(0:12:21.27) |
Luke Braveheart : Stop that! |
(0:12:26.66) |
Luke Braveheart : I will not allow anyone to hurt any of my friends. |
(0:12:32.67) |
Luke Braveheart : Today is a celebration. |
(0:12:38.81) |
Luke Braveheart : A wild and violent beast like yourself will just cause trouble for everyone. |
(0:12:40.77) |
Luke Braveheart : Go back to your nest in peace. |
(0:12:45.35) |
Natsuko Hirose : Some hero you are. |
(0:12:49.62) |
Natsuko Hirose : Don't you hear that? |
(0:12:54.06) |
Luke Braveheart : Hear what? |
(0:12:56.05) |
Natsuko Hirose : I know
you can hear my stomach rumbling over and over right in front of you. |
(0:12:58.87) |
Natsuko Hirose : You can't even help one nearby starving person. How are you gonna save the world? |
(0:13:03.84) |
Luke Braveheart : You're a person? |
(0:13:09.85) |
Natsuko Hirose : Th-This is... |
(0:13:11.96) |
Natsuko Hirose : It's the "perishing meal" I saw in the movie! |
(0:13:14.55) |
Natsuko Hirose : Down the hatch— |
(0:13:17.57) |
Natsuko Hirose : Huh? |
(0:13:19.78) |
Luke Braveheart : Well, I'm starving, too. |
(0:13:20.81) |
Luke Braveheart : I had to save some fool who wandered out to see the Voids. |
(0:13:22.74) |
Natsuko Hirose : My perishing meal. |
(0:13:27.71) |
Natsuko Hirose : Could I just have, like, a corner piece? |
(0:13:29.71) |
Natsuko Hirose : My perishing meal! |
(0:13:33.65) |
Natsuko Hirose : So that's the kind of guy Luke is, huh? |
(0:13:54.18) |
Natsuko Hirose : The Void army is headed this way, too. |
(0:13:57.53) |
Unio : Yup, you betcha! |
(0:13:58.72) |
Natsuko Hirose : No, wait. |
(0:14:00.23) |
Natsuko Hirose : If this really is the world of A Tale of Perishing
, |
(0:14:01.81) |
Natsuko Hirose : the Nine Soldiers defeat the Void army. |
(0:14:04.81) |
Natsuko Hirose : But that's when Unio dies. |
(0:14:07.40) |
Unio : Quit looking over here, hairball! |
(0:14:10.49) |
Natsuko Hirose : Well, whatever. |
(0:14:12.35) |
Natsuko Hirose : Luke Braveheart. |
(0:14:13.91) |
Luke Braveheart : Unio. |
(0:14:14.77) |
Luke Braveheart : Here, have some wine. |
(0:14:15.89) |
Natsuko Hirose : His best friend, Unio, dies protecting him and he's plunged into depression. |
(0:14:15.89) |
Natsuko Hirose : They're really here. Which means... |
(0:14:33.81) |
Luke Braveheart : Let's go! |
(0:14:40.48) |
Unio : Right! |
(0:14:41.35) |
Unio : Luke, let's wrap this up quickly and get back to partying! |
(0:14:44.23) |
Natsuko Hirose : There's the damn death flag. |
(0:14:48.31) |
Natsuko Hirose : Did I seriously get reborn in the world of A Tale of Perishing
? |
(0:15:05.88) |
Natsuko Hirose : If that's really the case... |
(0:15:11.10) |
Unio : Luke, this is... |
(0:15:15.15) |
Luke Braveheart : QJ, how many are there? |
(0:15:16.90) |
Unio : Huh? |
(0:15:20.77) |
Luke Braveheart : Memmeln! |
(0:15:21.63) |
Luke Braveheart : Take flight on Unio and attack from behind. |
(0:15:22.77) |
Luke Braveheart : Draw them away from the town if you can. |
(0:15:25.41) |
Memmeln : Understood. |
(0:15:27.72) |
Natsuko Hirose : This is just how this story goes, |
(0:15:29.88) |
Natsuko Hirose : so there's nothing I can do, right? |
(0:15:33.16) |
Unio : Luke? |
(0:15:41.90) |
Luke Braveheart : Unio, let's wrap this up quickly. |
(0:15:44.74) |
Unio : Luke! |
(0:15:49.58) |
Unio : It's no use. They just keep coming. |
(0:16:33.99) |
Natsuko Hirose : No... |
(0:16:55.04) |
Natsuko Hirose : No... |
(0:17:01.54) |
Natsuko Hirose : You need to run! |
(0:17:03.09) |
Natsuko Hirose : Huh? |
(0:17:08.98) |
Natsuko Hirose : What? |
(0:17:11.07) |
Natsuko Hirose : My pegbar? |
(0:17:14.19) |
Luke Braveheart : Wha— |
(0:17:23.74) |
Luke Braveheart : Unio? |
(0:17:25.05) |
Luke Braveheart : Ow! What are you doing? |
(0:17:29.04) |
Unio : Megi Amideki Magiya! |
(0:17:32.42) |
Luke Braveheart : Unio? |
(0:17:35.78) |
Unio : The Last Town needs you, Luke. |
(0:17:37.03) |
Luke Braveheart : Unio, what do you think you're doing? |
(0:17:40.58) |
Unio : Enjoying the rest of the party. |
(0:17:43.92) |
Luke Braveheart : Unio! |
(0:17:46.34) |
Memmeln : She's... |
(0:17:50.41) |
Luke Braveheart : Hey! Stop Unio! |
(0:17:53.97) |
Luke Braveheart : He's planning to use a self-destruct spell! |
(0:17:56.08) |
Natsuko Hirose : What... am I supposed to draw? |
(0:18:08.57) |
Natsuko Hirose : Okay, but draw what
? |
(0:18:12.58) |
Natsuko Hirose : What? |
(0:18:16.58) |
Natsuko Hirose : Unreasonable much? |
(0:18:17.36) |
Memmeln : I wonder who she's speaking with. |
(0:18:18.72) |
Luke Braveheart : Unio. |
(0:18:20.89) |
Unio : Aw, man. I'm definitely in over my head. |
(0:18:22.44) |
Unio : I've never used a self-destruct spell, so I wonder if I can even pull it off. |
(0:18:26.41) |
Unio : But I mean, I'm one of the Nine Soldiers, too. |
(0:18:31.95) |
Unio : The least I can do is make a cool exit. |
(0:18:35.39) |
Unio : Shigidoro... Notimagiya... Kaphyu... |
(0:18:38.70) |
Natsuko Hirose : In the current situation, there's an endless army of foes bearing down from the horizon... |
(0:18:43.29) |
Luke Braveheart : Unio! |
(0:18:47.38) |
Natsuko Hirose : That's it! |
(0:18:50.82) |
Luke Braveheart : Wh-What the... |
(0:19:24.56) |
Natsuko Hirose : It's done! |
(0:19:58.76) |
Natsuko Hirose : Wh-Wh-What?! |
(0:20:21.27) |
Memmeln : What in the world is that? |
(0:20:24.37) |
Natsuko Hirose : Unio! |
(0:20:30.22) |
Unio : Afutoro... Catastrophigi Magia... |
(0:20:34.42) |

(0:21:28.02) |
Natsuko Hirose : I told you. I'm Natsuko Hirose. |
(0:21:31.95) |
Luke Braveheart : Where did you come from? What are you? |
(0:21:35.64) |
Natsuko Hirose : I'm an animator that came from... reality... |
(0:21:39.62) |
Luke Braveheart : Hey! |
(0:21:43.66) |
Unio : Luke! |
(0:21:52.25) |
Unio : Did you see? Did you see? |
(0:21:55.11) |
Unio : I have no idea how it happened, but I defeated all the Voids! |
(0:21:56.93) |
Unio : Whoo! Yeah! |
(0:22:00.74) |
Unio : Who the heck is that? The black-haired gremlin? |
(0:22:03.89) |
Unio : Wait, she's human? |
(0:22:06.47) |
Luke Braveheart : This is Natsuko Hirose. |
(0:22:09.64) |
