- Fish: They won't hurt you.
- Fish: All they want...
- SFX: [*wiggle*]
- Fish: Is to see into your soul.

- Toki: What...
- Toki: Is that!?
- Fish: Oh my...
- Fish: Now this is interesting!
- Fish: Your soul...
- Fish: Takes the form of a jellyfish!
- 5
- Fish: A lethargic creature that floats aimlessly through the sea.
- Fish: Can you even call it a "living" thing?
- Fish: What a soft, bloated, weak and fragile being...
- Fish: That's what you truly are.
- SFX: [*shock*]
- SFX: [*tremble tremble*]
- Jellyfish: ......

- SFX: [*rip rip*]
- Toki: What the...
- Toki: What's it doing...!?
- SFX: [*twitch twitch*]
- Toki: Hey!!
- Fish: ...Pathetic. It's trying to eat itself.
- Fish: It seems as if this is what you've been trying to hide all along.
- Fish: Is it because you want so badly for your friends to like you?
- Fish: Just look at them.
- Fish: The shark always goes for the weakest fish.
- Fish: ...That's right.
- Fish: To animals like them, someone like you is nothing but prey.
- 7
- SFX [*glub glub*]
- Fish: You...
- Fish: Are food.
- SFX: [*glub*]
- Fish: Didn't you know that?
- SFX: [*gasp*]
- SFX: [*bubble*]
- Fish: You're the weakest. The most useless.
- SFX: [*glub glub*]
- Fish: You have no other use to them, right?
- Toki: Let me...
- Toki: go...!!
- Fish: Pathetic!
- SFX: [*glub*]
- Fish: No matter what you do, you will always be a pathetic creature.
- Fish: Your very soul is pitiful!
- 8
- Demon: How dare someone like you...
- Demon: Think to judge us!?
- Toki: .....
- Toki: No way...
- SFX: [*crackle*]
- Toki: You're...
- SFX: [*crackle*]
- Skeleton: [Why won't you save us too, Unwritten Page?]
- Skeleton: [What makes us so different?]
- Toki: The ayakashi...
- Toki: From back then!?
- Skeleton: You want to fight the Yakou?
- Skeleton: We hate the Yakou too!
- Demon: That's right. We, too...
- Demon: Are the pathetic creatures of this world.
- 9
- Toki: [All of my determination...]
- SFX: [*shake shake*]
- Demon: You abandoned us!
- Demons: You're just a hypocrite!
- Toki: [Is stripped away layer by layer.]
- Jellyfish: Nooooo!!
- Jellyfish: Nooooooooo!!
- Toki: [I try to cling to strong words and ideals...]
- Demons: You're a coward!!
- Fish: You and Teiten and everyone else can eat shit!
- Toki: [But I'm really just faking it.]
- SFX: [*roar*]
- Toki: [I wish...]
- Toki: [I wish I could be strong, like they were.]
- SFX: [You're weak!]
- SFX: [*gasp*]
- Toki: [But I'm weak. I wish I could just disappear.]
- 10-11
- SFX: [*slam*]
- SFX: [*whoosh*]
- Kon: Alright! Direct hit!!
- SFX: [*bubble bubble*]
- Toki: .....
- SFX: [*huff huff*]
- Toki: .....!!
- SFX: [*howl*]
- Kon: Toki!! Are you okay!?
- Toki: Kon...!?
- Toki: How...
- Toki: How did you...
- Toki: What about the bugs...?
- Kon: Huh?
- Kon: Oh, you mean these?
- SFX: [*wiggle*]
- Kon: Once I pulled them off, I started throwing them!
- Kon: These little fuckers are all over the place...
- Kon: So I figured they'd make good projectile weapons.
- Kon: [See?]
- Kon: Looks like they worked pretty well.
- SFX: [*shock*]
- Fish: What...!?
- Fish: .....!?
- SFX: [*flop*]
- Fish: How...
- Fish: How dare you...
- Kon: Whatever.
- Kon: Get over it.
- Kon: You don't have any right to judge us, either.
- 12
- SFX: [*bubble bubble*]
- Kon: Toki!
- Kon: You okay?
- Toki: Uh...
- SFX: [*twitch*]
- Toki: Um...
- Toki: Yeah!
- SFX: [*touch*]
- Kon: !!
- SFX: [*shock*]
- Jellyfish: [EEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!]
- Jellyfish: Nooo!!
- Jellyfish: Nooo!!
- SFX: [*tremble tremble*]
- SFX: [*wibble wibble*]
- Jellyfish: He's scary!!
- Jellyfish: He's scary!!
- Jellyfish: [WAAAAAAAAHHH!]
- Toki: Hey!
- Toki: Quit it!
- Toki: Stop!
- Toki: You stupid blob!
- Jellyfish: [WAAAAHHH!!]
- Kon: [WTF!?]
- Kon: ......
- Toki: Um...
- Toki: This is...
- SFX: [*gaaaaaaah*]
- Jellyfish: [WAAAAAAAAHHH]
- Toki: Uh...
- Toki: Well...
- 13
- Kon: Heh.
- SFX: [*jump*]
- Kon: It's probably just scared.
- Kon: I can't really blame it.
- Kon: It's okay, I know how you feel.
- 14
- Kon: Did you think I wouldn't notice how you haven't been sleeping?
- Toki: Gah!
- Toki: [He's sharp...]
- Kon: ...What's got you so worked up, huh?
- SFX: [*gulp*]
- Kon: You're fine.
- SFX: [*tap*]
- SFX: [*twitch*]
- Kon: I'm fine, too.
- 15
- Jellyfish: Uwah...
- Jellyfish: Ahh?
- Kon: Everything's going to be okay.
- Kon: I...
- Jellyfish: Ah?
- Kon: I'm not here just because you're the Unwritten Whatever.
- Jellyfish: Ahh?
- Kon: I'm not putting those kind of expectations on you.
- Kon: We're bros.
- 16
- Kon: Hey, look at me.
- KOn: I wanna do it right this time.
- Toki: We'll be friends again.
- Kon: Let's be friends.
- 17
- Toki: [No... maybe we've finally...]
- Kon: I'm glad we're here together.
- Toki: [Become friends for real.]
- 18-19
- sFX: [*smash*]
- Toki: Waah!
- Toki: Kon!!
- Fish: Hmm...
- Fish: It seems that you were able to escape before they could draw out the true shape of your soul.
- SFX: (*bubble bubble*]
- Fish: Now, let's see...
- SFX: [*fwoosh*]
- Fish: Was it simply that you were able to resist their power with your trickery...?
- Fish: After all, they are but weak ayakashi.
- Fish: Or perhaps...
- SFX: [*swish swish*]
- Fish: .....
- Fish: Was it that you have nothing inside you?
- Kon: !?
- SFX: [*shock*]
- Flashback Demon: Now, let's see what lies in your heart...
- Kon: Nothing...
- Kon: Inside me?
- Fish: That's right.
- Fish: I've seen it before.
- Fish: A heart that's completely empty...
- Fish: A soul of pure "nothingness."
- SFX: [*gasp*]
- Fish: Most people hold onto joy, or sadness, or anger, but not you.
- 20
- Fish: In other words,
- Fish: Your existence is meaningless, isn't it?
- Kon: .....!!
- Toki: Leave him alone!!
- Fish: !
- Toki: How can you say that his life is meaningless!?
- Toki: Compared to me, he's full of life!!
- Kon: [Full of life?]
- Toki: He's super smart, and he's really, really into cooking!! He's...
- Toki: He's...
- Toki: Kinda like a housewife! (Note: Literally, "he's good at spoiling others." Japanese family relationships are said to revolve around the concept of "amae," or "spoiling" - the mother spoils the husband and kids, so they feel closely bonded to her. It's also a style of relationship that's found in friendships, workplaces, etc. But I figured that given Kon's reaction, it should sound embarrassing in English!)
- 21
- Toki: How can you even know what gives someone's life meaning!?
- Toki: Me and Kuchiha wouldn't know what to do without him!!
- Jellyfish: Wah!
- Jellyfish: Ooh!
- Jellyfish: Uwaah!!
- Fish: !?
- Fish: What!?
- [Hizame: Hmm...]
- [Hizame: Well, it's said that the mind - the unconscious mind, that is - plays tricks on us,]
- [Hizame: Right?]
- Hizame: [Well done, Rikugou.]
- [Hizame: Now imagine if that power could be harnessed.]
- [Toki: I don't get it...]
- Hizame: [Now you understand...]
- Hizame: [And that is the source of your power.]
- Kon: ...Not bad for somebody who was crying just a minute ago.
- 22-23
- SFX: [*grin*]
- SFX: [*gulp*]
- Hizame: [The most important thing...]
- Toki: I might be a jellyfish...
- Toki: BUT I'M NOT WEAK!!
- Hizame: [Is to believe in yourself!]
- SFX: [*sting*]
- 24
- Fish: GAAAAAAAAH!!
- SFX: [*sting sting*]
- Fish: AAAHH!!
- Fish: NOO!!
- SFX: [*sting sting sting*]
- Fish: GAAAHH!!
- Kon: (Damn...) Poisonous jellyfish?
- Kon: Holy shit, you imagined all this?
- SFX: [*howl*]
- SFX: [*tremble*]
- SFX: [*twitch*]
- Kon: You... don't even know what you just did,
- Kon: Do you?
- SFX: [*tremble tremble*]
- SFX: [*shake shake shake*]
- SFX: [*twist*]
- SFX: [*shock*]
- Hizame: Fufu~
- 25
- Hizame: You foolish fish!
- Fish: Aaaahhh!
- Hizame: Don't you know that the eggs of fish and the eggs of humans look virtually the same? We start our lives the same way.
- Fish: Ah!!
- Hizame: Certainly, there ugliness within me, within all of us.
- Fish: Gaah!!
- Fish: Ugh!!
- Hizame: I won't deny that.
- Hizame: But there's so much more to human beings.
- SFX: [*float*]
- Fish: GAAAAH!!
- Hizame: Even if you strip away our clothing, and pluck out our hair...
- Hizame: Even if our naked sorrow is exposed...
- Fish: AHHHH!!
- Fish: AH!
- Hizame: We can clothe ourselves in new garments for the sake of the people we care about.
- Fish: HIZAME...
- SFX: [*glare*]
- Demons: Please...
- Demons: Kill me...
- Hizame: We live for others...
- Demons: Don't come near me...
- Demons: Please...
- Hizame: We protect others...
- Demons: Please...
- Demons: Destroy me...
- Hizame: We love others.
- SFX: [*squeeze*]
- 26
- Hizame: And that becomes the armor we wear around our hearts.
- Note: (I think the origami shape Hizame is holding is supposed to be the "diamond base." But I don't really know much about origami...)
- Fish: H...
- Fish: H...
- Fish: HIZAMEEEEEE!!
- Hizame: An ayakashi who toys with the hearts of human beings...
- Hizame: Has forgotten what it means to be human!
- SFX: [*slash slash*]
- SFX: [*GAAAAAAHH*]
- SFX: [*hoooooowl*]
- 27
- Fish: But why haven't you forgotten too?
- SFX: [*bubble bubble*]
- SFX: [*bubble bubble*]
- Hizame: Oh.
- Hizame: That's because I have people that I love.
- SFX: [*bubble bubble*]
