We should be glad...

that we can have ordinary morning

when we wake up everyday.

Dad. it's time to get up.

Hello, this is Mizukami residence.

Yes?

Born in this world.

Born in this debased world.

There is a shape.

The shape is me.

The shape that has completed a thousand sighs.

Me. Living with a deep depression.

L

Melancholia.

My room. I've been living here for a long time.

I've studied, had fun with my friends and then...

Mirai. Hurry up! You're going to be late.

Wow! Wow! it's beautiful! Wow!

Look! This is wonderful!

Wow. it's so beautiful Wow!

I've heard that a house will be built here soon.

Really?

It seems so. it's unusual since it's been vacant for such a long time.

Well...Where will kids play, if this place is gone?

Idiot! Kids these days don't like these kind of places.

I See.

We've always hung out here.

Yeah.

Let's do this again.

Mirai, don't be so sad. You can come back here anytime.

Yeah.

That's right. You're not going to another country.

We'll visit you sometime.

Yah, that sounds good.

Thank you.

Please, make your self at home.

Yes. We're very happy to have you here.

Thank you very much.

Don't be so polite. You're my brother's daughter.

So, you're nothing less than our daughter.

I know. You can't feel at ease with what's happened,

your sudden loss. But, it's going to be okay.

I GUESS SO.

This is your room.

Do whatever you want with it.

Thank you.

Well...

What are you doing?

Nothing...

This is the guest room.

We don't usually use it, so don't go in the room please.

Something is strange here.

What do you mean strange?

Um, I don't exactly know.

How am I supposed to know if you don't know.

Yes. You're right.

What's wrong exactly?

Umm. I haven't seen my aunt and uncle for a long time.

In fact, I've seen them only a couple of times.

Mirai? Are you there?

Mira? Hello? Mirai? What's going on?

What?

Mirai? Mirai? What's happened?

Oh... Nothing. Don't worry.

Mirai, many things are changing,

but somethings never change.

I can't explain well, but...

Just take things as they come.

Thank you.

A strange sense has existed inside of me since I was a child.

The sense that I'm coming and going to another dimension.

I feel like I can remember scenery I've never seen.

I remember things I've never done.

This strange sense is not like Deja Vu.

It might be...

Hey!

What are you doing here?

What?

You've come such a long way.

Come on. Let's go.

Let's me go.

What's wrong? Come on!

No!

Hey!

I'm sorry. I was worried about you so...

You'd better not go out for a while.

What? Why not?

Strange men are approaching you in the street.

I could never apologize to my brother if something happened to you.

That's right. You are like our own daughter.

Oh, it's you. What are you doing?

Mirai hasn't left for her uncle's place. She's with Yoshiko.

What does that mean?

Why?

Hello, Takuji? What is it? It's after midnight.

What? Yoshiko? Missing?

Mirai, you were in your uncle's house, right?

Yes. Why do you ask?

It's strange.

She sent Satsuki a message

that she was with you before she went missing.

I don't know since when...

and I don't know why, but I've had a deep feeling...

for a long time.

There is another me.

She doesn't even remember her mother.

It should be all right.

But, if Masao told her something...

He couldn't have He knew how risky it was.

But, why did Masao commit suicide?

Mirai. Good morning. You're up early.

Did you sleep well? I'll make your breakfast.

Thank you.

What's going on here...

I have no idea.

Why would Yoshiko...

come to think of it...

What?

Nothing.

It's just, I saw a strange woman...

at the place where Mirai's father committed suicide.

Shinji, you find out more about Yoshiko, and I'll see Satsuki

All right.

Shinji!

What?

Be careful!

I know. I'm okay.

Mirai? Is everything okay?

Okay, I got it. I'll pick you up at the station.

I don't know anything specific.

Yes. I'll call you as soon as I know something more.

Hey!

Hey you, what are you doing?

Why did Yoshiko disappear?

I have no idea.

Mirai...

What?

Are you sure you were in your uncles house?

Of course. it's strange. How could I possibly have met Yoshiko?

But, Satsuki got a cell phone picture of you and Yoshiko together.

It's impossible, isn't it?

Mirai. Don't worry about it. We'll solve this, all of us.

Just like we've always done.

Oh, it's you! Don't scare me.

Isn't Takuji with you?

Satsuki's not here yet?

This is her cell phone.

Who are you? Stop it. Get away from me.

Ahhhh ...

No. . .She won't answer.

I knew it.

Mirai? What's wrong?

Like I thought, there's another me.

What do you mean?

I don' know, but I've felt it for long time.

I'm not the only one of me. Another one exists.

So what?

I don't know.

You mean a Doppelganger?

Doppel-what?

Haven't you heard the word before?

Somewhere in the world, you have a double exactly the same as you.

I don't know about that. I don't know.

Mirai, you should go back to your uncle's house for now.

But...

I'll find Satsuki. I promise I'll find out what's going on.

Don't look like that.

If anything happens, call me.

I'll look out for you, I promise.

Takuji...

We've always hung out here.

Yeah.

Let's do this again.

Mirai, don't be so sad. You can come back here anytime.

Dad. Why did you commit suicide on me, Dad?

Was it something to do with me?

What could it be?

Hello?

Mirai? Are you all right?

Are you all right?

Mirai? What's happened?

Where are you?

I got it. I'll be there right away. Wait for me.

Mirai!

Mirai!

Mirai, are you all right?

Oh, that's good.

I'm glad you came. Takuji, I'm glad you came.

Where is Satsuki?

Is she here? Is she okay?

Mirai! What's wrong? She isn't...

oh, my. Just, stay here okay?

How can...how can it be? Why?

Takuji, I love you.

Who are you?

"Incoming phone Mirai"

Don't look like that.

If anything happens, call me.

I'll look out for you, I promise.

Takuji...

I'm scared.

"Calling Takuji"

Hello? Takuji?

Hello?

Hello?

Hello? Takuji... Hello?

Hello?

"Takuji"

Hello?

Mirai?

Takuji!

Mirai, I'm sorry.

I don't think I can see you any more.

I promised to protect you.

I promised to solve this for you.

But I can't.

I wanted to protect everybody.

Takuji? What's happened? Takuji?

Listen, Mirai, I'm not scared.

I don't really know.

Mirai, live your life well.

Takuji! Hello? Takuji!

Takuji...

I was so surprised.

They really do look exactly the same.

Yes, I got it.

Yes, Professor. it's fine.

Nobody knows a thing about us so far.

NO!!!!!!!

NO!!!!!!!

NO!!!!!!

No!!! it's not true.

No!

NO!!!!!

NO!!!!!!

Mirai, it's me.

Mirai. Calm down.

Why?

I'm a kind of doctor- a doctor for trees.

Everyday I walk in the woods to check on the tree's condition.

One day, I met Mirai.

Mirai has been confined in this house since she was a child.

That's why she can't talk to people.

She's always been alone and lonely.

That's why I became her friend.

I knew something was wrong.

You're not the Mirai who used to live here.

I'm Mirai Mizukami. But, who is the other Mirai?

You look identical. Like twins.

Twins? Is she my twin sister?

I don't really know.

I'm just as surprised that there are two Mirais.

Why? If we're twins, why were we separated?

What am I? What's going on with me?

Take it easy.

I knew I must have a double.

Nagisa? You're back.

I still can't believe it. It's simply not possible.

It's extraordinary.

Nagisa, don't get too excited.

I can't say for sure it was completely the right thing to do.

NO!!!!

What's wrong?

Everyone.

Everyone I know. Why?

This is my grandfather.

What? Your grandfather?

Yes. But they said he died before I was born.

Really? Are you serious?

Yes. My dad said so, and showed me his picture.

That's unbelievable.

Why do you say that?

He's still living.

What do you mean?

He's still living. Right now.

I never thought that I would be able to See you.

So, what do you want to ask me?

Everything. The other Mirai is my twin sister?

I don't know anything about that.

Yes, you do. You know everything. You must.

Stupid.

He should have thrown that out.

What are you asking about this tor?

There are so many things in this world you'd better oft not knowing.

You're a carbon copy of your mother.

I'll tell you if you really want to know.

I understand how you feel,

but In Vitro Fertilization is another way.

Dad, you said it's theoretically possible to make a clone.

It's certainly possible.

We've already cloned mammals throughout the world,

but a human clone hasn't been in achieved, not even experimentally.

So if you feel like that,

why do you do clone research even through

you were expelled from the university faculty?

Well, I think the technique will be needed someday in the future.

But why does the child have to be a clone?

We want a baby made from our genes.

Only our genes, nobody else's.

Your parents, Masao and Ayaka, were Childless.

Ayaka's ovaries were functioning normally,

but Masao was sterile,

so they couldn't make a baby in the normal way.

I decided to make a clone...

because they were so eager.

But, in fact, I probably just wanted to succeed

in an experiment that nobody would accept.

An experiment no one thought could succeed.

The experiment was a success.

I managed to make two cloned babies.

Two babies with the same gene composition.

I can't believe it.

Of course,

two people having the same gene composition shouldn't exist in the world.

The world not only doesn't accept the technique of cloning,

but even less accepts the existence of cloned people.

I had to choose one.

So, as well as I could,

I made an analysis of the genes of the two babies.

The analysis showed a problem with the genes of one of the babies.

A defect that might lead to disease in the future.

So...

Yes. Mira, you were chosen.

And the other one was

the other Mirai.

The other one should have been disposed of.

So, why is the other Mirai living now?

Do you know Kasper Hauser?

Kasper Hauser?

It was in Germany in the 19th century.

A man was found standing at the street corner in Nuremburg.

He couldn't walk or talk.

The man had been confined since childhood,

and didn't the chance to learn language.

All he had with him was a toy wooden horse.

The students who were researching Kasper,

drew the conclusion that somebody

had experimented on how people

learn emotion and language,

it they have those instinctively.

It remains a mystery who did the experiment on Kasper.

What does that have to do with Mirai?

I too wanted to know

if a cloned human being could develop emotion without education,

and how much she could inherit from her genes.

So I put Mirai with Mr. & Mrs. Minagata,

who used to be my assistants in the university.

They were also childless,

and were keenly interested in the experiment.

So, he is not...

No. Your father and Takeshi Minagata are not brothers.

Minagata and you had no relationship.

You people, what do you think human life is?

Stop it.

Please.

He's my grandfather. Please...

I don't think everything I did was right.

If only I hadn't done it, Ayaka wouldn't have...

No!

He regretted what she had done,

and she committed suicide.

No! No!!!

Mirai.

That's why I completely stopped doing experiments.

Mirai. Get a hold of yourself.

Nagisa?

Professor. Do you really regret it?

I don't know now.

But, cloning technology will be necessary in the near future.

Umm. That may be.

Human desire knows no bounds.

That's what makes scientific progress.

There's no doubt cloning will generate enormous profits.

For researchers, it's the forbidden fruit.

You're great.

You were the first to taste the forbidden fruit.

You succeeded where no one else in the world had.

I don't know about that.

I lost so much for an experiment that nobody knows,

and nobody will admit to.

That's not true. I know your achievement.

I recognize it.

Mirai!

Help me here.

What?

What are you saying?

How can you be so cool?

I wonder.

Listen.

You're a person who shouldn't exist.

If anyone finds out you're a clone, you'll be killed.

I'll help you.

Are you okay?

Yes.

I've felt something strange since I was a child.

I've felt something inside me like a black shadow

or some kind of darkness.

It's not Deja Vu, it's clearer than that.

I feel like I've seen something or done something.

It's a strange feeling.

Something I've never understood has now become clear,

and at the same time, it's all fuzzy.

What am I?

It's all lies and fiction.

Everyone has died because of me.

There's no one connected to me any more.

My existence has no meaning.

That's enough.

You are a human being even through you're a clone.

I have no parents and no family.

What?

I know nobody wanted me to be born.

Even when people have helped me,

I've always been alone.

That feeling has never left me.

But, I am alive.

You're alive too, aren't you?

Listen, nature, like the trees and flowers

have meaning in their existence.

It's the same for people.

The most important thing...

is living in the moment.

Where are you going?

I'm going to clean up the room.

We can't leave it like this.

I'll help you.

You don't have to. Take a rest.

Mirai, I said take a rest.

What should we with these?

It's better to burn them. They seem burnable.

What are you doing?

Kei...

Are you her?

Kei...

I love you.

NO!!!!!!!!

NO!!!!!!

NO!!!!

Stop it, who are you?

Please, stop it.

Your existence is standing in my way.

It there is evidence that you exist in the world it will ruin everything.

Why?

It's obvious. You're the world's first human clone.

You can never imagine how great Professor Mizukami's achievement is.

What do you mean?

Mean? His research will result in unimaginable fame and wealth.

Nobody knows about it yet, except tor you and her.

It's all going to be mine.

I was right to get close to Professor Mizukami.

NO!!!

Mirai?

Why?

Why do you do this?

Why do you kill people?

I wanted to be Mirai.

But. . .why?

Friends,

everybody.

But, I can't be Mirai.

You have everybody.

Why?

Why?

Why?

Kill me.

Please, kill me.

I can't do that.

There can only be Mirai.

If you don't kill me,

I'll kill you.

Why?

You and I are both Mirai.

Please.

No, I can't. I can't. I can't kill you..

Only one Mirai.

One Mirai.

I want to die.

You shouldn't say that. You have to live.

There is a meaning to life.

The man you love said so.

Mirai,

live your life.

No!

No!

Not any more.

Thank you.

We should be glad

that we can have ordinary morning

when we wake up everyday.

Even though it's not exactly the same morning,

to have a new day,

To live in the moment,

anything can happen.

Erase?

Erasing

Erased

NO!!!
