I'm glad.
For saying that you loved me.
Goodbye.
Where's Aiyami-sensei?
She was taken away by the police.
Stand back.
Akumu-chan!
Yuiko-chan!
When the doctors say that they don't even know the reason for it. Means that there is nothing wrong with her body, right?
Yuiko thought that you murdered Shiki-kun, that's why she lost consciousness.
She might have given up on the world of consciousness.
What do you mean?
Yuiko went to the world of unconsciousness.
A person's consciousness is at the tip of an iceberg.
Within the soul, there is an infinite unconsciousness that spreads.
Inside is where all the emotion, all the behavior and even time sleeps.
This little girl's unconsciousness can connect with other people's unconsciousness.
And when she sleeps, her soul awakens.
Other people's ominous future becomes her nightmare and materializes in the real world.
Akumu-chan! Final Episode ~Dreamland~
Subtitles in English by LuffyNoTomo and special thanks ( -o _ o- ) for raws and to Furransu for the use of their Japanese subs~!! Thank you all for waiting and being so patient~!
Aiyami-sensei!
Has your class already decided what to do for the winter learning recital?
Winter learning recital?
Ah!
But because of what happened, it wasn't the time to think about that. Right.
That's not good!
Every year, right before Christmas. We invite the residents in the area and perform a learning recital! It's our school's tradition!
Has everyone already decided on something?
Every year our class has decided to do a concert (with instruments).
It's the most exciting thing and the method of practicing is so precise.
Kaibara-sensei's direction is said to be our school's Ozawa, Seiji! (a famous Japanese conductor)
Um, vice principal. I thought about saying this earlier but that pen is annoying.
Annoying...
In the end, it means that Kaibara-sensei will be the first to stand out more so than the children.
That's correct.
What is that you were doing, Inamoto-sensei?
My class will aim at the local housewife type and we shall be performing a Korean-like drama.
Huh?
What's the title?
Decisively! It's the "Winter Learning Recital".
Ah. It's "Winter Knowledge", right. (Gaku means both those words in English)
That's such an old joke.
It's a universal...ah, no. It's a sweet melody sing along show about the region's history.
Which means with that cold (lame) pun, you'll be turning the assembly hall into winter. Right.
How about Mugiyama-sensei?
For my class, I thought it would be a good idea to have the region's elderly people enjoy themselves.
This year for sure, we will attempt the classic rakugo! (traditional Japanese comic storytelling)
Saying, "this year for sure". That's completely your objective alone, right.
Rakugo...are you going to have everyone do it one by one? How long will that take?
Calm down. Nope, you see our class will be doing it relay style. We will be doing our own "jugemu". (I'm not sure but I think it means a play on words or some sort of game)
By doing it like that, the names they memorize will get shorter one by one and then it will end.
Isn't that just because you don't fully understand what the fun part of a story is.
You're winter all year round, aren't you. (all these are winter/cold puns due to the time of the year)
Yep, my name is Penguin-sensei.
What about you, Mutoi-sensei. All this time you've been saying such frank things.
Have you already decided on what you'll be doing?
We're doing...
Everyone, give your opinion on what you would like to do.
What's the matter? Isn't there anything?
Yes.
Koizumi-san.
I want to investigate the truth about the incident.
What?
Why did Nanami-chan have to be spirited away?
How about we investigate what in the world happened and then announce it?
Sensei, I too want to investigate what happened.
Me too, I have to know or else I can't think about anything else.
I too am worried about it that I can't sleep.
Wait a moment.
Me!
Satou-kun.
Leaving that aside, I want to investigate the mystery behind Shiki, Takashi's death.
What?
Ah, me too! He fell in the sea, right?
They haven't found his corpse yet, right.
Sensei, since he was your lover. Do you know anything?
No comment.
Shiki, Takashi is interesting. But as I thought, he has nothing to do with school.
He's the topic of the internet or variety shows, right.
Please be quite!
Well then, I think we should take a majority vote.
Either, the incident regarding Nanami-chan being spirited away...
Or the mystery behind Shiki, Takashi's death.
Sensei, is that okay?
Of course that isn't okay! Read the school's situation.
You can't make an announcement about something like that!
Why not?
Aren't you interested?
It's something that happened at this school, right?
It's something also related to you, Aiyami-sensei. Right?
If that's the case, then I think it's related to everyone.
It's also on my mind.
It's something one would care about, right?
I care, I care.
When did everyone become so interested in the occult.
Gosh, who's influence was it.
Sensei, what happened to Yuiko-chan?
Kotou-san hasn't been feeling well so she's resting.
Does it have something to do with the spirited away incident?
Kondo-san.
What happened when you were spirited away?
I don't know...
They suddenly blindfolded me and when I woke up, I was in a mountain hut-like facility.
However, I wasn't scared at all.
Of course I was uneasy, but everyone was together. And a kind old lady would always bring us food.
There was an old lady?
It might have been the sister at the orphanage who raised me a long time ago.
Ah, the earless seal person who appeared in Akumu-chan's dream.
As we thought, does it mean that person was also involved in the human trafficking organization?
Are you pulling out dream cards from here?
That's correct.
Even if her consciousness doesn't return, she can still dream?
Even now, Yuiko's unconsciousness is actively moving.
What do you mean when you said she's thrown away the world of the conscious?
What?
You're saying that Akumu-chan went to the world of the unconscious, right?
Yuiko always said that dreams came from the outside.
A dream is a person's unconsciousness.
Perhaps a person's unconsciousness might also be from our outside.
Then, wouldn't that mean her mind's on the outside as well?
You could say that.
On our outside there is a person's unconscious soul.
Thence, our minds might have been constantly receiving influence and might be alive.
That's why Yuiko was able to access that unconsciousness but...
Finally, living within the consciousness became painful.
That might be why she went inside a dream.
Yuiko wished this for herself, and she might not wake up.
Do you mean she chose the world of unconsciousness?
If she continues to sleep, then Yuiko's body within the real world will most likely perish.
Yuiko's soul will still be in the world of unconsciousness.
Because I'm only in your unconsciousness, if you were able to connect to someone else's unconsciousness then I can transmit it.
Look.
She's still dreaming.
Show me that dream.
I don't mind, but I don't want to leave this spot.
Can we borrow the dream card?
Hello.
Professor Kotou said that if you want, he'd like it if you'd come back to this lab.
Is that so...
I will be continuing senpai's dying wish, so I believe that I want to continue the research.
I'm grateful.
If you're gonna continue researching dreams, then you have to learn more about a person's heart, right?
What? Why are you saying something so high and mighty.
See! Just like that you soon get mad. You haven't had enough training, right.
I'm leaving.
Ah, I lied! It was a lie! I'm sorry, sorry, sorry!
Wait...are you two dating?
No way!
If that's the case, then could you hurry up and show me her dream card?
This is...
A new prophetic dream.
Does this person plan on dying?
Should we inform the police?
No. Before that, I will go see them.
Sister Marika.
When I was little, you said that I would often make drawings at this institution, right?
Was there an animal within any of those drawings?
An animal?
Something like a dog. Since it was a child's drawing, it was a strange animal.
If so then I have kept every drawing that you made.
Really?
This is it.
It's dark, um.
This is...
Was the previous institution chief involved with human trafficking?
I was ignorant of the ways of the world.
By the time I realized that they were selling children for money, it was too late.
I wasn't able to stop the institution chief.
That's why...
You killed him?
Just as I drew it in this picture.
That's correct.
However, I saw that drawing after I killed him.
In order to protect this institute, I had no choice but to kill him.
I noticed that, once again, your nightmare became a reality.
Therefore, I hid that drawing.
Why didn't you throw it away?
To me, that drawing appeared to be God's divine message.
As a punishment for myself.
And that I should accept it.
You even drew that swing.
Underneath it...is where the institution chief is laying.
Did you burry the institution chief's corpse under this swing?
Yes...
If it was under the swing, then I thought that no one would dig it up.
However, someone from the organization realized it.
What?
The organization used that swing as a marker for their illegal site.
And came to threaten me.
Did you cooperate with the kidnapping for that reason?
In order to protect the children here...I did everything, knowing what it was that I was doing.
But because of that, it's not as if my sin would disappear.
A church was built where the traces of the swing was and I prayed to god but...
In due time, I knew that I would have to welcome a day such as this.
Aiyami-chan.
Thank you for coming here, um.
I...believed that you would certainly come.
Because you are my angel.
Thank you.
Sister.
Now, I will see you off and I will go to the police.
Sister!
Sister Marika!
Sister!
Why?
Akumu-chan informed me.
Akumu-chan?
She's a precious student of mine.
She can also see prophetic dreams.
Thanks to that, I was able to save you.
I ended up not losing someone precious to me.
Aiyami-chan.
Will you tell us what happened, Sister Marika?
Yes.
This time around, I'll be able to make an arrest. Even if it's only the organization's inertia.
Please look after her.
You and this girl are amazing.
There is a drawing that I would like to show you.
What's this?
Do you know who drew this picture?
It's your daughter's.
Yuiko-chan's mother.
She drew this?
Namiko-chan was the one who drew it.
No! I don't want to be separated from Yumenosuke!
I want be together!
Aiyami-chan, Yumenosuke is a part of our family. So, I can't give him to you.
I will give Aiyami-chan your own family.
What?
Okay, this is Aiyami-chan's family.
My family? What's it's name?
You should name it whatever you like because it's your family.
Namiko drew this?
When we were talking about the unconsciousness here, I remembered it.
I thought that the Dream Beast who would appear in Yuiko's and my dreams might be Namiko-chan.
I thought that maybe within the unconsciousness that she has been protecting us all this time.
I too, have a dream card that I want to show you.
A dream card?
Come to my laboratory.
Is it alright to leave here?
I feel like Yuiko is telling me to show it to you.
Well then, I will project the dream that Aiyami-chan had last night.
Everyone, what do want to do for the school festival?
Yes!
I want to sing and dance.
What's that all about?
It's a musical.
Stop that, enough already.
Aiyami-chan, who's that girl?
That's Namiko-chan's family.
My family?
Yep, Namiko-chan's child.
What!?
If that's so, then is this the future?
Where am I?
Namiko-chan is no longer in this world.
What?
This dream card is something I saw when I was little?
That's right.
You didn't become a teacher because you wanted to become a comfortable shepherdess.
You unconsciously chose the path of a teacher.
Just as you saw in that dream from long ago.
Thereupon, your encounter with Yuiko had also been decided.
As far as Namiko was concerned, this was probably a nightmare.
Because she was told that she was no longer in this world.
In fact, when Namiko became a high school student and she became ill.
She realized that she wouldn't live much longer.
Thus, before that happened. She was determined to give birth to Yuiko.
Namiko, who's the child's father?
It doesn't matter who the father is.
I won't cause any trouble to that person.
What are you thinking?
You can't give birth to a child in that condition.
I will!
I will and have her meet Aiyami-chan.
If I don't, then Aiyami-chan might never regain her past memories for the rest of her life.
Isn't that right?
If that happens then it's all your fault, right?
Bring Yuiko up properly and you must make sure that Aiyami-chan meets her.
Yuiko?
Namiko, what will happen to you?
If Yuiko is there, then I'm alright.
Because I will live within Yuiko.
And I'm sure that I will meet Aiyami-chan.
Dream?
Dream Beast.
Namiko gave birth to a child and named her Yuiko.
And as her consciousness never returned, she left this world in that state.
These are the photo's of Namiko all grown up.
She resembles her mother, and became a beautiful daughter.
Yes, that's correct.
Is that so. I will go meet them immediately.
Before coming here, I also called upon a certain someone.
What?
They are coming here now.
Principal?
Yes.
Mutoi-sensei.
Principal.
Why?
I'm sorry for keeping quiet.
When Namiko-chan was in elementary school, I was her homeroom teacher.
Was that so?
Yep.
I don't know how many years past but suddenly Namiko-chan contacted me. And I was called to the hospital room.
Mutoi, Aiyami.
Sensei, remember that name.
Who is this person?
My number one best friend.
We separated when we were kids, and she has no memory of me.
But she will definitely become an elementary school teacher.
Amasawa-sensei, please watch over her.
Me?
She will definitely become a good teacher.
If she doesn't then I'll be the one in trouble.
I didn't know what she was talking about but...
I felt as if this name was Namiko-chan's memento.
Then many years past and I really did find you.
I was really surprised.
When I assumed the position of principal, I asked a favor from the board of education.
And I had them move you to our school.
No way...
All this time, Namiko-chan had been protecting me.
Even when I stopped believing in people. All this time, I can't believe she had been protecting me.
Namiko-chan's prediction was correct.
Within these several months, you really did become a good teacher.
Well then, let's have our class do a musical.
What!
What about Shiki, Takashi?
Let's have the best fun we can and create this world's dream.
Right now Kotou-san is absent but let's use our abilities to make a fun dream, something that she would also want to participate in. Alright?
Sensei, yesterday I met Kotou-san.
What?
Rather than meeting her, I saw her.
No way! I did too!
I also saw her.
Huh?
Then...that was really Kotou.
Sensei, I saw her as well.
Me too.
I saw her too.
I also saw her.
I saw her as well...
Or at least I feel as if I did.
Everyone, where did you see her?
In order to meet with my dad in jail, I was waiting for the train.
Kotou-san?
Weren't you mistaking her for someone else?
I wasn't!
Because Kotou-san clearly was waving at me.
I saw her when I was passing by the park.
I saw her when I was getting my hair cut.
Hey!
That was definitely not a dream.
When I asked the hospital, they said that even now she's still asleep. And that there is no way she could be out walking around.
That's her doppelganger. It may be a living spirit.
A living spirit?
Professor Kotou said it as well, right.
Within this world, a person's unconscious soul is floating around.
Once our consciousness dies out, from there on we receive influence.
Which means Akumu-chan is able to access that lump of unconsciousness, right.
So, she's connected to another person's unconsciousness.
Thence, her classmate's consciousness are receiving that influence.
They might have seen Akumu-chan's form within their consciousness.
Does that mean that Akumu-chan has gone to the world of unconsciousness?
Right now, she's still a living spirit but eventually she'll become a real ghost. And she won't be able to appear in front of everyone.
I won't let that happen.
I will definitely bring her back.
Aiyami-sensei?
Are you awake?
Weren't you arrested by the police?
It's alright, I won't be going anywhere.
Is this perhaps, a dream?
If you think it's a dream, then it is.
If you think it's reality, then it's reality.
Where are we going?
To school, of course.
Can you walk from here on yourself?
I'm okay.
Then, let's go.
What will you do? Will you wait here until everyone comes?
But I'm afraid.
If I meet everyone again, then I will see someone's nightmare.
If I do, then someone will try and capture me again.
I don't want to see anyone sad ever again.
I don't want to lose someone I love!
A dream is nothing to be scared of one bit.
What?
Because even now you're dreaming.
This is inside my dream.
This is Aiyami-sensei's dream?
Yep. Right now, you're in my lucid dream.
This is a dream?
Dream?
Dream Beast.
Good morning, Yuiko-chan.
Or should I say welcome back?
See. If you think it's a dream then it's not the least bit scary, right?
This is my lucid dream which I acquired.
Aiyami-sensei. Are you able to dream by using your own power?
Yep. Within that, you can even see prophetic dreams.
Really?
Shall we go take a little peek?
At what?
At the future in which you're so concerned about.
A prophetic dream.
If you please, Dream Beast.
Okay. Well then, here we go.
Ah. Kanda, Touma-kun.
Yep.
That was a nice throw.
His divorced father stopped drinking and now they get along well together.
Haven't you gotten faster?
Yep.
Well then, I'm going to the concert. Okay.
Touma. I left dinner for you, make sure you eat it.
Okay, do your best.
Give it your all.
It seems that the father's dream will be carried out by the daughter, um.
Ah. Uehara, Shou-kun and his younger brother.
The younger brother's eye surgery was a success. And they went to go get the money they buried.
You also saw this far in a prophetic dream, right.
Yep.
[Properly report it to the authorities. God is watching.]
That person put it in.
Satou, Miki-san and Shimizu, Rion-san.
Ah, Kotoha-sensei.
Shimizu, Rion was worried about her mother's invisible control, right?
Kotoha-sensei made friends with the mother. And little by little her heart began to change.
Thanks to that, the relationship between that mother and daughter became exceedingly favorable.
Kotoha-sensei's endeavor, changed those two's future.
Accurately finding the children's gaze is important.
I even know something like that.
For the time being, I'm earnestly studying.
Do you know who that is?
It's Kaibara-sensei's student whose death you predicted.
I don't understand the meaning for showing me that nightmare.
If you had to force a meaning.
Then to me, it's also equivalent to murder!
That student was aiming to become a teacher.
And when it reached the point where Kaibara-sensei would come visit him, before one's eyes his vitality enhanced.
It seems the tumor that was in his brain also steadily started to get smaller.
Ah. Which reminds me, I also saw a strange dream last night.
What kind of dream?
Some kinda of strange animal-like thing appeared. And told me that I would become a good teacher.
Dream Beast?
Why?
Do you understand?
Everyone might have been influenced by your dream.
However, from there on afterwards. They are walking on their own.
There are people who are changing their future with their own strength.
That person's future is something that they can only make themselves.
Therefore, there is nothing for you to be afraid of.
Akumu-chan can be just as you are, and make your own future.
Because I will gladly accept it.
No matter what kind of bad dream, I will gladly accept it earnestly.
Aiyami-sensei...
Therefore, be at ease and come on back to reality.
See, if your inside a dream for forever then something strange will appear.
If you would like to have a good dream, the call upon me whenever you like.
Really?
Although, I don't recommend it.
Dream Beast.
Everyone is here, okay.
Even if your inside a dream, you are never alone.
Be at peace, and go see this world's reality.
Well then, let's go back!
Come on!
Let's go!
Yuiko!
Yuiko-chan.
Where...am I?
At school.
In the nurses room.
The nurses room?
Why am I here?
Aiyami-sensei brought you here.
What? Then...
That wasn't a dream?
Where's Aiyami-sensei?
Sensei.
Good morning.
Aiyami-sensei!
A person's future is...it's not always something good.
There are many nightmares.
However, the future that we see at any time...
Is it a dream? Or is it reality?
You won't know unless you go see it yourself.
No matter how difficult it gets within reality, a person is able to have a good dream.
Therefore, let's live together without being afraid.
Akumu-chan.
Yeah.
Yuiko-chan!
Kotou!
Kotou-san!
Everyone came to welcome you back to the classroom!
Come now Yuiko, greet them.
Everyone...
Good morning.
Alright!
Wow!
What do you think?
So cute!
Everyone, come and look!
Ta-da!
Here we go!
Yeah!
Okay, everyone it's time!
Let's go!
[Class 5-2 Musical. Our Dreams and Future.]
Farewell, fling away yesterday. Muster the voice of bravery, for the sake of knowing "yourself" in the name of love.
You flock of sheep who can't sleep! Don't look back at the screams of those who have lost their mind. Our world has only just begun.
And forever and ever, I saw a continuous dream. An angel flew down.
And forever and ever, under the continuous sky. I want to be free.
(For more of my translated theme song lyrics, see the info on page 1 of Akumu-Chan Daddicts)
Sensei.
What's this?
It's the act of praying, Goddess of Mercy.
It's the Goddess of Mercy who can change a bad dream into a good one.
I saw this place in a dream.
Really? When did you dream it?
While I had been sleeping all this time.
When you had lost consciousness, this appeared to you in a dream?
Yep.
Here is where my father turned up.
Your father? Not your mother?
Yeah, it was my father.
You saw him?
I was almost able to see his face but the dream ended...
However, that was definitely my father!
I know it was.
Do you think that was also a prophetic dream?
You're...!
It's like a dream!
That's all~! Thanks for waiting and watching~! Subs and song subs brought to you by LuffyNoTomo~! (This is just an ad for the DVD box set)
