FUTURE EPISODE 1 – THIRD TIME’S THE CHARM

[Future Foundation conference]
Tengan: It’s been a long time since we’ve gathered this way.
Gozu: Boss, if we’ve been gathered here, then…
Tengan: Correct. It is about Makoto Naegi’s betrayal.
Juzo: If people at the bottom of the organization knew, there’d be an uproar.
Bandai: That’s why we’re here, right?
Ruruka: Hey, Chairman Tengan… Isn’t this dangerous? If this place were attacked right now, we’d all be wiped out.  (hands candy to Izayoi) Here, open wide!
Izayoi: It’s good.
Tengan: No need to worry about that. Munakata personally constructed this building and it’s under his control. Supposedly, this island doesn’t exist on any maps.
Bandai: So what you’re saying is that both dolphins and deer live inside pine trees.
Seiko: What?
Ruruka: But does it matter that it isn’t on any maps? Those guys destroyed the world.
Gozu: The Remnants of Despair? They’ve really quieted down--
Juzo: Like hell they have! This month alone,  there have been forty terrorist attacks. You call that “quieting down”?
Gozu: But compared to their peak…
Juzo: That isn’t what I’m saying. The numbers aren’t the issue here! The problem is that they’re still alive. Hey, Chairman Tengan… I know what the old you would’ve said. “Screwing around will only add to the body count. We will exterminate the Remnants of Despair.” We kill them all, we kill anyone helping them, and we’re done, right?
Gozu: It isn’t that easy.
Koichi: We must keep the budget balanced, too…
Seiko: You need to throw out the rotten parts, or the whole thing will get rotten.
Bandai: A dancing wolf needs no sake, right?
Ruruka: What does that stuff you’re saying even mean?
Seiko: I’ve been wondering that too.
Bandai: They’re my own personal sayings. They don’t mean anything.
Ruruka: Then stop saying them all the time! Your voice doesn’t match your body, and it’s creepy!
Seiko: Creepy…
Izayoi: Ruruka’s right.
Bandai: I’m blushing.
Ruruka: That’s not a compliment!
Bandai: A chanting monk doesn’t know his parents, right?
Juzo: Stop getting off-topic, damn it!
Ruruka: I said you aren’t making any sense!
Tengan: Oh, my… We can’t have a conference like this.
Gozu: Silence. Please be quiet.
[Munakata enters]
Munakata: So, this is humanity’s last hope? Even as we speak, the Remnants of Despair are causing more damage, and more people are falling victim. Is this the time to squabble?
Gozu: Restrain yourself. You’re in the chairman’s presence.
Munakata: You weren’t always the type to allow this. We’re here to discuss Makoto Naegi’s fate, right? You, too, Yukizome. We’re starting.
Chisa: Okay!
Munakata: Everyone is seated, right? Then, look at the main monitor. These are the Remnants of Despair that Makoto Naegi hid.
Juzo: Junko Enoshima’s servants, who destroyed the world.
Izayoi: If that’s true, it’s a serious crime.
Ruruka: These are million-class murderers, right? Why did Makoto Naegi save them?
Koichi: I’d sure like to know the answer to that.
Juzo: If we’d just killed them when he found them, this whole mess never would’ve happened.
Tengan: Yes, but he is the Super High School-Level Hope, and the man who stopped Junko Enoshima. We need to talk to him, at least.
Munakata: If Makoto Naegi really is hope.
Ruruka: You mean defeating Junko Enoshima was all only a big show, and he was always allied with the Despairs?
Izayoi: A good theory. That would make sense, since he’d be saving his comrades.
Seiko: If that’s it, I should have prepared a truth drug.
Munakata: Either way, it’s true that he saved the Despairs and deceived us.
[Aoi enters conference room after bombing]
Aoi: The s-security guards are dead in the bathroom…
Chisa: I can’t reach security or anyone on the outside!
Tengan: This is bad.
Ryota: I’m sorry, Chairman. Um, I’m late.
Tengan: Mitarai, you’re here?
Kyoko: What’s the situation?
Makoto: It seems all the exits have been blown up.
Kyoko: Then, we’re locked in.
Aoi: What do we do, Kyoko?
Gozu: Calm down. There are many Future Foundation leaders here. No matter who we’re fighting, it’s nothing we can’t handle--
Juzo: What?
Seiko: S-sleeping gas? And it takes effect immediately?
Munakata: Yukizome? Are you all right?
Chisa: Kyosuke…
FUTURE EPISODE 2 – HANG THE WITCH

[Bandai enters after investigating]
Bandai: As near as I can tell, no one’s in the hallways. All the windows and elevators have been blocked.
Tengan: So we can’t get out?
Juzo: Then, we have to find and kill the attacker.
Makoto: W-we don’t have to kill them. We can restrain them and lock them up somewhere.
Juzo: With your Super High School-Level Good Luck, it would be easy for you to slip out of the ropes when we’re asleep.
Tengan: Naegi aside, I’m certain the idea of confining anyone in this room will be meaningless.
Juzo: So, why not come out and admit it? You allied with the Remnants of Despair to set up this game, right?
Makoto: Wait, please… Please listen to me!
Juzo: Listen to you? Talking is what you’re good at, right? You were good enough to persuade Junko Enoshima, right?
Aoi: Wh-what are you saying? What do you know about anything?!
Bandai: The strawberry seed only shows its face three times. Can you stop it there?
Ryota: That’s right… Using violence against women isn’t good.
Juzo: Sorry. You’re exactly right! But this is a war zone now! We won’t survive on platitudes!
[Bandai dies]
Seiko: Move! … He’s dead… Useless!
Ruruka: W-what happened? Was he attacked?
Kyoko: No. It was this. “Witnessing violence by participants.”
Gozu: What have you done?
Juzo: I get it… So that’s their plan?
Miaya: C-calm down! To prevent this from happening again, let’s all check our forbidden actions.
Ruruka: I don’t want anyone knowing my weakness! I can’t trust some people here!
Kyoko: And there might be someone whose forbidden action is revealing their forbidden action.
Gozu: But even still…
Munakata: We need to decide on a plan. With no way to stop the game itself, we must find the attacker. I’m sure you all have personal circumstances and guesses, but there’s no time. We’ll decide by majority vote. Everyone, point at the one you believe to be the attacker.
Miaya: Why me?!
Koichi: Just a hunch.
Aoi: W-wait a second!
Munakata: Then it’s decided. Makoto Naegi. If you really desire a world of hope… If you really hate despair… you should kill yourself right here.
Aoi: Kill himself? What?! If we vote right now, of course people will vote for Naegi…
Munakata: Then we simply wait for the attacker to kill us?
Aoi: Well…
Ryota: But if he isn’t the attacker…
Munakata: Then we keep voting. We can eliminate the Remnants of Despair who have infiltrated the Future Foundation.
Tengan: Are you serious?
Munakata: We’ll do everything we can to eliminate the Despairs, one by one. Makoto Naegi, you understand that, right? This is the time for all of us to cooperate. You will cooperate, right? Or can’t you?
Makoto: Cooperate?
Juzo: If you can’t…
Gozu: Enough! I can’t imagine a comrade’s death creating hope!
Munakata: Have you forgotten? How many of our fellows have died fighting the Despairs? If we don’t destroy the Despairs here, what will we say to them?
Aoi: Let’s go.
[Aoi & Makoto leave]
Kyoko: Are you all right, Naegi?
Tengan: Violence is wrong. Violence creates despair.
Ryota: Director, what are you doing? That’s sexual harassment.
Tengan: No, it isn’t… I won’t hurt you. Don’t worry.
FUTURE EPISODE 3 – CRUEL VIOLENCE AND HOLLOW WORDS

[Kyoko, Tengan, Ryota wake up]
Kyoko: That was the second time limit, wasn’t it?
Tengan: Seems we were lucky enough to survive. That’s a relief.
Kyoko: You don’t look like you were too worried.
[some time passes]
Kyoko: The fewer of us, the easier the killer will be to find. The rules disadvantage the attacker. It’s as if they have no intention of winning.
Ryota: Where are you going?
Kyoko: To do my job as a detective. While we were unconscious, someone was killed.
Tengan: Going alone is dangerous. We’ll go with you.
Ryota: The attacker is one thing. But why did Munakata suddenly decide to kill Naegi?
Tengan: Munakata is a strong man. But a hope that is too strong can sometimes approach despair.
Kyoko: What’s wrong?
Ryota: Our actions in here are being broadcast to the whole world, right?
Kyoko: Yes.
Ryota: Then… we shouldn’t be doing this to each other! We need to believe in each other and work together!
Kyoko: Hey, Mitarai… May I see your forbidden action?
Ryota: Well…
Kyoko: I cannot show you mine, either. And that is our situation. In this situation, trusting each other is difficult. The attacker probably incorporated forbidden actions into the rules in order to make us realize that. Unless you’re a huge softie…
[Ryota, Tengan, Kyoko in the hallway]
Ryota: Why was he so willing to reveal his forbidden action?
Tengan: He probably believes in everyone.
Ryota: Everyone? Even Munakata, who suspects him?
Tengan: Yes, he does. He thinks that, even if they’re enemies now, they can understand each other if they talk.
Ryota: That’s crazy!
Tengan: Naegi is well aware of that. But truly believing in someone means doing that, regardless.
Ryota: I could never do that…
Tengan: Worried? (at Kyoko)
Kyoko: No.
FUTURE EPISODE 4 – WHO IS A LIAR

[Tengan, Juzo, Ryota, Kyoko in the hallway]
Tengan: Isn’t it rather soon to be getting violent?
Juzo: If Makoto Naegi is with the Remnants of Despair, his friends are obviously working with him. Give them to me.
Tengan: Well, wait a second, Sakakura…
Juzo: Stop acting like being the chairman means anything. Munakata is my boss. There’s no reason for me to obey you!
[projectile aimed at Juzo]
Juzo: What was that?
Tengan: Impressive. The Future Foundation’s chairman isn’t always a nice guy.
[Juzo stops his punch]
Tengan: What’s wrong? You aren’t going to punch me? You are the former Super High School-Level Boxer, right?
[Juzo’s knocked out]
Tengan: That’s hard work for an old man…
[hear Munakata’s voice after Aoi & Miaya appear]
Aoi: What?
Tengan: Munakata?
[announces Naegi’s execution]
Aoi: Execute Naegi? W-what do we do?!
Kyoko: This is a trap.
Aoi: A trap?
Kyoko: He is using Naegi to draw us in.
Aoi: Then, what do we do? Naegi will be killed!
Kyoko: I will go. If he hasn’t killed Naegi yet, he must have a reason. There may be room to negotiate.
Tengan: No… If you want to negotiate, I’ll go.
Kyoko: Chairman…
Tengan: I have been meaning to have a chat with Munakata. We are old friends.
Kyoko: But…
Tengan: As chairman, this is my job. Don’t you have your own job, which only you can do?
Kyoko: Understood. Take care of Naegi for me.
Aoi: Okay, I’ll follow the chairman!
Miaya: I’ve already calculated the route!
Tengan: Mitarai?
Ryota: Yes?
Tengan: Escort Kirigiri for me. She has injured her leg.
Ryota: I’ll do my best!
Tengan: Now then… Let’s go.
[Tengan, Miaya, Aoi arrive at the intercom room]
Tengan: Love drives men mad, huh? Ever since Yukizome’s death, you’ve been pushing yourself to the limit.
Munakata: A chuusen? That’s an old weapon.
Tengan: Asahina…
Aoi: Right! Naegi!
Miaya: Chairman!
Tengan: Take him somewhere safe.
Aoi: Right!
Tengan: Naegi?
Makoto: Yes, sir?
Tengan: I believe that you are the Super High School-Level Hope. Naegi, I am entrusting the care of the rest to you.
Makoto: But…
Tengan: Don’t worry. I just want to talk with Munakata.
Makoto: Tengan…
Aoi: Let’s go!
[Juzo leaves to go after Makoto]
Tengan: You’re sure? Very well. Then…
[fight starts between Tengan & Munakata]
Tengan: You underestimated me. The young convince themselves that fanaticism is the only way to face reality. But if you ask me… If anyone’s naïve, it’s you! That naïveté will cost lives!
Munakata: No matter how many die, their deaths are necessary to eliminate despair.
Tengan: I understand. Then Yukizome was one of those necessary deaths? … I told you, you’re naïve!
[fell to the bottom]
Munakata: What are you laughing at?
Tengan: At my present state. Looks like you were luckier than I was.
Munakata: I always thought you were a fool and a coward, so I had to carry all the burdens myself. Even if it meant killing you. But…
Tengan: But?
Munakata: I’ve changed my mind… I thought you’d lost your fangs, but it appears I was wrong. I want to know what you’re thinking.
FUTURE EPISODE 5 – DREAMS OF DISTANT DAYS

[at the bottom]
Tengan: You want to know what I’m thinking?
Munakata: You used to be stronger. But then you became a coward… Why?
Tengan: Is that a question? Then I must answer it. Because I learned that the way we’re doing things now will not eliminate despair.
Munakata: That’s right. That was why I…
Tengan: Why you sacrificed Yukizome? … Munakata, you think if you start a war and kill all the Despairs, everything will end. But that’s simply naïve. You cannot extinguish despair with war alone.
Munakata: War “alone”?
Tengan: You think that killing all of the Despairs will create hope. But you’re wrong. That was why we began the project. To do that.
Munakata: The Kamakura Project?
Tengan: Yes, there’s that. I won’t let that go to waste.
Munakata: I understand… That makes me sure of it. You are the attacker. In other words… you are the Remnant of Despair. To begin with, hardly anyone knows about this base. And even fewer people would be capable of locking everyone in like this. But there is something I don’t understand. Why would a man as great as you join the Remnants of Despair?
Tengan: I suppose I have to answer your question. Unfortunately, I am not one of the Remnants. It’s a logical deduction, but far too simple for you.
Munakata: If you’re that certain, then you know the attacker’s identity?
Tengan: Is that a question? If it is, I have to answer it.
Munakata: Is that true?
Tengan: Yes.
Munakata: What of it? Did you think that would suffice to make me waver?
Tengan: Munakata…
[Munakata fatally wounds Tengan]
Munakata: You know nothing. Not about me. Or my plan.
Tengan: Hope… Where do you suppose… you will find the answer…?
