People term opportunities that cannot be changed by will or effort as "fate."

We found the Mototsumitama that got away.

Start capturing.

If luck is decided by fate in this world,

Fate can be changed.

To be able to catch good chances, one would fight.

Or otherwise, instead of resisting against...

Yes?

Sheesh... Why are you still asleep?

Today I made your favorite pork cutlet sandwiches!

In order to maintain the nutritional balance, I also made some vegetable...

Yeah, yeah, I'll eat them.

Than if that's all, I'm late.

Excuse me!

Wait!

Onii-chan, good morning!

Good morning! What's wrong?

Mayu's friend's mother seems to have been hit by a reversing vehicle.

Mama!

But luckily the vehicle was reversing slowly.

I'm sorry.

No, never mind.

If you don't mind, can you come over for dinner tonight?

Thank you very much, but I'm meeting someone else tonight.

Eh?

See you later.

You must come the next time!

Yeah!

People yearn for love.

The deeper the relationship, the easier to manipulate their fate.

Relatively, your own life may be in one such relationship.

That is why, I...

Oh!

Lucky! Ibuki-kun, are you late too?

What's so lucky?

Wouldn't it be too conspicuous if it were only me?

Welcome!

Do you need me to heat up your boxed lunch?

Yes, please do.

Bingo.

Recently I've been really lucky.

Huh?

Here, look!

Could it be that you're going to invite me?

Sorry. I've already invited Shizuka.

Too bad.

I'll invite you the next time!

There's no need, it's just a thought...

Good morning. Sorry.

That's enough, hurriedly be seated.

Okay.

Yamada you're late too.

Yeah...

Eh? Kasai didn't come today?

Say, did he transfer? Did he die?

What are you talking about, it's only a cold.

But hasn't this been happening recently?

Shizuka hurry up!

Wait for me, Risa!

Ah, Ibuki! Let's go karaoke!

Sure!

I should have some discount vouchers.

Today I've got to look after the neighbor's kid...

Seriously, you...

Anyway, next time we'll go!

Please don't just browse and not buy.

Mayu-chan!

Did your date get canceled?

Seems so.

Sheesh, why...

Okinawa prefecture suffered a minor earthquake measuring--

Sign: No Entry.

Your ramen is ready; the egg's on the house.

Sorry for always relying on you!

Line One is arriving, please stand behind the yellow line.

Welcome to Kai-on Mar, GFD Live concert.

Why are there so many people...

Hey Risa...

What?

Do you have a sister?

I only have a brother that looks like a sister.

That one wearing a red shirt looks exactly like you.

Doppelgänger: Double or look-alike of a person.

Doppelgängers really exist.

What are you talking about...

Hey, you!

I'm a scout from a modeling agency. Can I borrow some of your time?

Mother!

Why, aren't you already dead?

Could it be that she's a doppelgänger of Mother?

I heard that the driver ran away,

and that she died on the spot.

She's so young...

Are you awake? I've already called a few times!

Today I made your favorite rice balls.

Ahh~ My button...

I'll never forget the memories from that day.

The very day after they met, Mother died.

Sorry.

Ibuki-kun, you sure are lucky.

How was the concert yesterday?

The myth about having somebody looking exactly the same as you actually exists.

We saw someone who looks exactly like Risa!

"Doppelgänger."

Stop it you.

Hey, you should be careful.

You can't possibly believe in doppelgängers right?

How could I? But just in case...

Eh... You're worried about me?

You must be really happy...

Your egg ramen is ready; Char Stew is on the house.

Sorry...

It's alright, Keita-kun. You're a regular customer.

Excuse me...

Welcome...

A ramen please.

What's with you... Do you have money?

Of course I do, see?

Are you kidding me?

That's not even enough to buy a cup noodle.

I can't eat ramen?

Is it really alright for you to treat me to such an expensive thing?

Thank you very much!

That's my meat!

Then, let me treat you Keita-kun.

There's no need; my father should be remitting money soon.

Are you living by yourself?

Yeah.

What about your mother?

Because of an accident not long ago... Mother...

Sorry for asking.

Uncle, do you know about doppelgängers?

As in twins?

There are three people who look exactly the same as yourself in this world.

Once you meet one of those people, you'll pass on. My mother, she...

That's wrong.

That's just a myth with no basis.

It's called "Doppeliner" to be exact.

"Doppeliner?"

Yep. It's a system to maintain the average.

Whereby three people who look exactly the same share different destinies.

Once any two of them meet, one will disappear.

Two of them will eventually depart from the face of Earth due to an illness or anything.

Disappear.

And the third, or the "root," will absorb the fate of the other two.

What a pity that your mother was a filler and not the root.

Welcome.

Miss!

Hey wait a minute! What are you doing?

Hitting such a small girl like her!

Hey, are you listening?

Uncle! Are you alright?

You really want to get beaten up...

As expected of you, it seems I won't need to hold back...

This time I'll aim straight for the heart.

Stop it!

Keita-kun!

Uncle, call the police!

You're only a human. Don't block the way.

What are you talking...

Ramen.

My ramen.

It wasn't easy to get someone to treat me...

to such an important bowl of ramen.

Unforgivable.

Unforgivable?

You're straying from your sins.

What?!

That hurt!

How troublesome.

I wanted to try out your real strength,

but the order was to capture you alive.

You--

Were you scared? It's alright now...

I'm sorry! I dragged you into is.

Are you hurt?

You... what on Earth are you?

I'm Kuro! A Mototsumitama.

This is Puni Puni!

Mototsumi--

Ramen... So much soup wasted...

I'm sorry for wasting your ramen, I'll take my leave.

Puni Puni,

To where?

To kill my brother.

Please wait, the hand roll that you like to eat is almost ready.

Akane-san...

What?

That's enough.

Though you're my childhood friend, there's no need for you to take care of me.

What are you talking about? If I don't bother you about it, you won't even eat your rice.

It's alright.

How nostalgic...

Akane-san?

You aren't willing to get close to people because of him, right?

Because you feel that the bad luck you brought with you jinxed him.

Next up on the news,

Indeed many unfortunate events happened,

In central Tokyo an accident happened at a work site.

to your mother... to your friends.

Three passersby were killed.

The names of those who died; Yamada Risa-san, 17.

I'm sorry!

Tamura Kazuo-san, 45 and Yamazaki Akia-san, 27.

Risa...

Hey, Ibuki!

Onii-chan.

Onii-chan!

Mayu-chan!

Sorry, did I startle you?

Just a little.

There's something even more surprising.

This morning I saw another girl that looked exactly the same as me.

Her age was the same; it was as if there were another me.

Wait, Mayu-chan!

That girl was hit by a truck!

Quick call an ambulance!

M-Mayu-chan...

How pitiful...

That girl wasn't the root.

I once thought that if it was destined, one could only accept it.

That is why all we could do was to hope for good fortune.

But if the destiny were to be so absurd, I...
