I'll be the one

I guess you were lost when I met you

Still there were tears in your eyes

So out of trust and I knew

No more than m steries and lies

There you were, wild and free

Reachin' out like you needed me

A helping hand to make it right

I am holding you all through the night

I'll be the one. I'll be the one

Who will make all your sorrows undone

I'll be the light. I'll be the light

When you feel like there's nowhere to run

I'll be the one

I'll be the one

I'll be the light

Where you can run

To make it alright

THE GREATEST CRISIS OF MY LIFE

Icheero.

Icheero.

Danger!

Danger is closing in on you.

Tomorrow, something terrible is going to befall you.

Actually, it's not simply "terrible".

For you, it just might be...

a life-or-death situation!

Geez, it's you again, Mandamu Katari-

That's Madame Catherine!

You still can't even remember that?!

So what do you want, Mandamu?

Listen to me.

I've come all this way to warn you that danger is closing in upon you.

Danger?

Tomorrow, someone is going to pull you into a crazy series of events.

Someone? Who's that?

What's that crazy series of events?

I'm not so nice as to tell you each and every detail.

Don't expect me to spoil you.

If you're not gonna tell me anything, then you might as well stay quietly on the other side.

Sorry, while I didn't get sent to hell I wasn't able to cross over to the other side either.

What, you still can't cross over, Mandamu?

What a loser!

Oh!

I get it!

This time, in order to cross over to the other side,

you're planning on tricking me into doing your dirty work, aren't you?

Shut up! Shut up!

I don't even want to cross over.

I only came here out of the goodness of my heart.

Listen up.

Tomorrow, you'll face the greatest crisis of your pitiful nine years.

If you mess up, you might end up seeing hell.

Yeah, yeah.

It's up to you whether you believe me or not.

But my foresight is 100% on the mark.

You should know that better than anyone else.

Well, Just stay on your guard then.

Or else you might end up crossing over before me.

Something's gonna happen today.

Someone's gonna bring me the greatest crisis of my life today...

C-Could it be Mom?!

Hey, Ichiro.

Breakfast will be ready soon.

Gran'pa?!

Good morning, our round-faced Ichiro-kun!

Yeah right there's no way he could be anything but a jovial old man.

Is it you?!

What? You got a problem?

She's suspicious.

Hey, Ichiro!

Kei-chan and Souta are here to pick you up.

So, is your dad doing good?

Yeah, since they're still newlyweds.

And thank you for all your help with that.

Now, if you can just be good siblings with Souta,

there'll be absolutely no problems.

Yeah, but this one needs to be re-educated on certain things.

Looks like he's been pretty spoiled.

Now if you could just re-educate Ichiro-kun as well, you'd be really helping me out.

No way! He's a lost cause.

Could it be you guys?

Could the identity of that someone be...

Well, lookie how cool Ichiro-kun's dressed himself up so early in the morning.

Hey, you really think it's okay to wear your house coat to school?

Hell?

Someone's gonna send you there?

I see, so that's why you've been acting weird all morning.

Yeah.

That's why I have to be on guard today.

Is that really going to come true?

Yeah, she's never been wrong.

So I have to be careful.

Come on.

If you don't hurry I'll reach the classroom before you do.

C-Could it be that these are for...

a t-test?!

Could this be the greatest hell I face in my life?!

Are those tests, ma'am?

No.

They're not!

These are the forms for tomorrow's vaccination shots.

Shots?

Shots?!

The tests are tomorrow.

T-Tests?!

Spelling, math and science.

Th-This is it!

This is the biggest crisis of my life!

This is terrible.

Did someone die in there?

No, it seems he was saved.

It was a young man.

Yeah, the ambulance made quite a racket this morning.

They should clear this away quickly.

It'll jam traffic up.

MARUDE FIRST GENERAL HOSPITAL

We've done all we can.

But he's lost a lot of blood.

His condition is critical.

Then, Haruhiko is...?!

If he can hold on for today, there might be some hope.

But for now, it depends on how strong his life force is.

I'm going to die?

Well, I guess that's not too bad either.

I'll be freed from a lot of things.

If there's anyone who'd like to visit, now would be a good time.

There's just one...

There's just one person I'd like to meet.

Ka...

Ka... na...

He... He just...

I know!

But how the hell are we supposed to get in touch with that woman right now?!

That's right.

No matter what, I have to meet her and tell her that...

That's gotta be it!

First, I get zeros on all of the tests tomorrow.

And then Mom and Dad will be called by the teacher and I'll get preached to!

Dad will kick me.

Mom will half kill me with her fists.

And it goes without saying that I'll be locked in the shed without any food.

To top it off, the vaccination needle will probably not enter properly.

And if it has to be done over and over again...

Yep, hell.

Intensive Care Unit

It's been three years since then. Intensive Care Unit

She's probably with some guy somewhere by now. Intensive Care Unit

But if he wants to meet her, then we must do something to...

Idiot!

What do you want me to do when we don't even know where she might be?!

I mean, didn't you hate the woman in the first place?!

You were just the same!

- You were just the same! - Kana...

You were just the same!

No matter what, I want to see you one last time.

Please take me to her.

Please.

But wasn't hell supposed to come today?

Yeah, she said "tomorrow" last night, so its gotta be today.

But both the tests and the shots are tomorrow.

Oh, could it be that it was past 12 a.m. when she came?

I don t know.

If it was past 12 a.m., then she may have come last night, but technically it was already today.

So "tomorrow" would really mean tomorrow and not today.

Either way, last night she said tomorrow would be hell.

It's decided then.

Tomorrow we'll have to be careful.

All right, lets get back to class quickly.

Ichiro-kun

Wh-What, another ghost?!

Why do all the ghosts come to me?

Once you become a ghost, you can unconsciously sense those who can see you.

That's why I was able to come to you.

Dammit!

Is there a sign stuck on me somewhere?

I have a request.

Ah?

Would you please exchange bodies with me until tomorrow?

What are you talking about? You're a ghost!

You couldn't possibly have a body to exchange with me.

Right now, I'm in spirit form, but I'm not dead yet.

So I do have a body.

Eh? You're still alive?

It was very sudden.

I only took my eyes off him for a moment!

Doctor!

Haruhiko! Haruhiko!

Eh? You're still alive?

Hanging by a thread.

But if I don't get back soon, I'll be a goner for sure.

In other words, you'll become me and I'll become you?

That's right.

There's a person I absolutely have to meet.

And I need a healthy body for that.

Well, I'm really healthy, but...

Tests in spelling, math and science.

These are the forms for the vaccination shots.

I think it's a great idea, mister.

Charging.

Clear!

But my body is in the ICU right now.

It's not in the best of circumstances.

It's all right.

There's nobody who can always be in the perfect circumstance.

So let's not ask each other about our circumstances.

Clear!

You're really good!

I learned how to do things like this from hanging out with ghosts.

Here you go.

Thank you, Ichiro-kun.

I'm really grateful.

Tomorrow, for sure I'll.

Don't worry about it.

As a bonus, I'll give you two or three days.

But since this is something you asked for,

no matter what happens over the next two or three days, you can't complain.

Promise.

I promise.

I'll be off then.

It can't be good to leave the body without a soul.

That's right!

I don't have time to waste!

I-chan!

The teacher is mad and wants you to come quickly!

I-chan!

I'm so lucky!

Yay!

Goodbye hell!

Yahoo!

Haruhiko!

Clear!

That...

That hurts!

- That hurts! -Doctor, we have a pulse!

Haruhiko!

What?

Heart rate 60.

What? What?

Hurry!

WHAT?!

NO WAY!

I... I have to meet Kana quickly!

I just need a few minutes to tell her what I have to tell her.

And I have to return this body to Ichiro-kun immediately!

Once I do that, I can die with no regrets.

Oh, there's one.

Don't touch me!

Put one needle into me and you're all gonna die!

D-Doctor...

Don't fall back.

He's just temporarily deranged.

I... don't feel so good.

Now! Grab him! FIRST GENERAL HOSPITAL

Yes sir! FIRST GENERAL HOSPITAL

FIRST GENERAL HOSPITAL

Looks like you've been put to sleep with a sedative.

Boy, you look terrible.

Mandamu...

Didn't I tell you that you need to be careful?

To think that you'd exchange bodies with someone on the verge of death...

It's your fault.

If you hadn't told me anything-

Oh please.

This is your destiny.

Well, now that it's come to this, you just have to wait it out in this body till that guy comes back.

For some reason, I feel really tired.

It's a really weird feeling.

It's best if you stay put.

That body has undergone surgery for ruptured organs.

There are about ten fractures.

The left leg has a compound fracture.

I guess you'll have to undergo surgery once you regain some stamina.

No way!

You haven't entirely resonated with that body yet,

so your senses are still dull and you probably don't realize it.

But don't worry.

You'll become one with the body soon enough and be able to feel all of its pain.

Then how can I not worry?!

If I become one with it, then that would be hell!

This is bad. I need to leave this body soon!

You can leave if you want, but if you leave this body right now it'll die right away.

Like I care if it dies.

It's not my body.

What an idiot.

Right now it's your body.

If you let your body die, you'll die.

You may be a living spirit now, but if you die you'll be a true spirit.

While a true spirit can possess a living body it cannot become one with it.

In other words, you will no longer be able to return to your original body.

D-D-Doctor!

I'm not dead! I'm not dead, dammit!

So you have no choice but to stay in there and stay put.

First I need to call the old lady at the Tanukiya and ask her where Kana lives.

I don't have that all-important stuff.

What are you doing here, skipping school 'n all?!

You little devil!

I'm sorry.

l'm really sorry, ma'am.

I'm in a certain situation, so please overlook this!

Ma'am?

Please?

Wh-Whats wrong, Ichiro?

You have a fever?

Was it because I hit you?

Did I hit you that hard?

No Visitors Allowed

Haruhiko! No Visitors Allowed

If your life can be saved with shots or a surgery, then you should be grateful for them!

They're telling me that your heart stopped again, right?

Shut up.

Haruhiko. Haruhiko... He's got nothing to do with me, man.

If you're so grateful for them, then why don't you have them, you old geezer?

G-Geezer?

Man?

Haruhiko! How can you speak to your father like that?!

Doctor!

Is my son's strange behavior really temporary?

M-More importantly...

I'm more surprised that he can even talk...

Oume-san...

You didn't happen to see Ichiro, did you?

No.

I finally managed to get away.

Looks like this area is Ichiro-kun's territory.

But what should I do? I have no money...

You seem to be taking things pretty easy, Monsieur Haruhiko.

Wh-What?!

Y-You are...?

I'm Madame Catherine.

You're a ghost friend of Ichiro-kun's?

You don't have time to be wasting over here now, do you?

But right now I don't have the money or the strength.

There's nothing I can do.

Boy, what a loser.

You seem to have absolutely no will.

Either way, you need to hurry up and finish what you set out to do.

If you don't, then Ichiro will die.

But...

Th... This is...

I-It's the leg again!

This is bad! I'm becoming one with this body... !

How nostalgic!

This place hasn't changed at all in three years!

It's her!

lt's been a while.

You haven't changed at all, ma'am

Umm?

Have we met somewhere, little boy?

Oh, that's right.

I'm Ichiro-kun right now.

I-I've eaten here before.

Oh, you're a customer of ours?

Hey, Gran'ma!

Coming!

It's all so nostalgic!

That's right.

I used to live in this town.

And I lived with Kana... in a room in this building.

K... Kana.

Kana!

It was so hard enduring not being able to see you.

I just couldn't forget you.

Kana-chan!

Come on down when you're done with that.

Please keep an eye on Na-chan.

She's so shy of people.

No one else will do for her, Kana-chan.

My husband's given up.

Sorry about that, Gran'ma.

I'll be right down.

All right.

She'll be right down.

Isn't that great, Na-chan?

Mommy...

Mommy?

Kana! Is this my child?!

It's my child, right?!

Kana, answer me!

Is it so?

Isn't this red hair...

from me?

What are you talking about...?

This child...

My tummy hurts from laughing.

Of all the things to say...

What a weird kid.

Ichiro-kun...

Ichiro-kun...

I'm sorry.

I...

can't go back.

Don't pretend you're sorry

I know you're not

You know you got the power

To make me weak inside

Girl you leave me breathless

But it's okay

'Cause you are my survival

Now hear me say

I can't imagine

Life without your love

Even forever don't seem like long enough

'Cause everytime I breathe I take you in

And my heart beats again

Baby I can't help it

You keep me drowning in your love

Everytime I try to rise above

I'm swept away by love

Baby I can't help it

You keep me drowning in your love

I exchanged bodies with Haruhiko, who was on the verge of death.

And now I'm in deep shit!

That damn Haruhiko!

How could you give me this horrible body?!

I don't want any more shots!

Come back quickly, Haruhiko!

After shouting so much, my head seems to be...

I don't think I can hold on for much longer...

Ichiro-kun, I won't...

SOMETHING PRECIOUS Ichiro-kun, I won't...

SOMETHING PRECIOUS

die... SOMETHING PRECIOUS

SOMETHING PRECIOUS

I don't want to die! SOMETHING PRECIOUS

SOMETHING PRECIOUS
