1
00:00:10,042 --> 00:00:11,917
Sorry it's a bit messy.

2
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:13,708
No. Thanks for having me over.

3
00:00:46,333 --> 00:00:47,708
It's wet.

4
00:00:48,208 --> 00:00:50,042
I'll put it in the dryer.

5
00:01:59,625 --> 00:02:01,000
What's wrong?

6
00:02:04,625 --> 00:02:05,708
I'm sorry.

7
00:02:13,833 --> 00:02:15,500
I don't think I can do this.

8
00:02:23,083 --> 00:02:24,083
I'm sorry.

9
00:02:34,208 --> 00:02:36,000
So that's what happened.

10
00:02:36,833 --> 00:02:38,667
I totally blew it.

11
00:02:38,750 --> 00:02:41,708
I totally thought
we were going to have sex.

12
00:02:41,792 --> 00:02:43,417
When we kissed in the rain,

13
00:02:43,500 --> 00:02:46,750
"Love So Sweet" started playing
in my head.

14
00:02:46,833 --> 00:02:48,042
That's a throwback.

15
00:02:49,375 --> 00:02:51,208
I turned him off, didn't I?

16
00:02:52,875 --> 00:02:57,958
I guess it's no good for a woman
to make the first move.

17
00:02:58,042 --> 00:03:00,333
That's not true.

18
00:03:01,083 --> 00:03:03,292
"Women shouldn't have strong sex drives"

19
00:03:03,375 --> 00:03:05,708
or "women should be passive in bed"?

20
00:03:05,792 --> 00:03:08,917
Don't let meaningless gender bias
like that hold you back.

21
00:03:09,708 --> 00:03:10,958
Listen.

22
00:03:11,042 --> 00:03:16,083
Women are allowed to enjoy sex
on their own terms too.

23
00:03:16,167 --> 00:03:18,250
Take "masturbation," for example.

24
00:03:18,333 --> 00:03:21,375
Why does it sound so negative in Japanese?

25
00:03:21,458 --> 00:03:25,125
It literally means "to comfort yourself."

26
00:03:25,625 --> 00:03:28,500
In English, people also call it
"self-pleasure."

27
00:03:30,750 --> 00:03:32,125
"Self-pleasure"?

28
00:03:34,125 --> 00:03:35,542
Pleasure.

29
00:03:39,583 --> 00:03:45,208
What's important is whatyouwant, Yumi.

30
00:03:45,708 --> 00:03:47,125
You like him, right?

31
00:03:48,333 --> 00:03:49,333
This…

32
00:03:49,417 --> 00:03:50,708
-S.
-Right. S.

33
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,000
I do.

34
00:03:55,083 --> 00:03:57,625
I've always thought he was so cool.

35
00:03:58,292 --> 00:04:00,583
He's a bit absent-minded,

36
00:04:00,667 --> 00:04:03,500
and sometimes I can't tell
what he's thinking.

37
00:04:04,708 --> 00:04:07,750
But he'd always quietly listen to me.

38
00:04:07,833 --> 00:04:12,583
I should've just stayed quiet
and listened to her.

39
00:04:13,958 --> 00:04:15,500
Like I used to back then.

40
00:04:18,125 --> 00:04:23,083
I thought a man and a woman
could have a platonic relationship.

41
00:04:23,583 --> 00:04:25,583
That's why I met up with her.

42
00:04:37,042 --> 00:04:38,583
But I ended up

43
00:04:39,458 --> 00:04:41,625
hurting her feelings.

44
00:04:45,250 --> 00:04:47,833
I suddenly had an intense flashback.

45
00:04:50,875 --> 00:04:52,125
But

46
00:04:53,208 --> 00:04:56,208
it's not like you rejected her, right?

47
00:04:56,292 --> 00:04:58,125
You just rejected sex.

48
00:05:03,458 --> 00:05:07,167
Then you need to tell her that first.

49
00:05:09,792 --> 00:05:14,083
She thinks you rejected her.

50
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,375
I imagine.

51
00:05:34,750 --> 00:05:36,917
PROFESSOR TOYOHARA

52
00:05:38,833 --> 00:05:41,917
I was just about to call you.

53
00:05:43,708 --> 00:05:46,625
Things are getting a little interesting.

54
00:05:51,292 --> 00:05:57,500
SandX

55
00:06:19,958 --> 00:06:22,000
I knew it. Porsches should be blue.

56
00:06:22,500 --> 00:06:23,792
Hello.

57
00:06:24,875 --> 00:06:25,708
Right this way.

58
00:06:26,958 --> 00:06:27,958
Let's go.

59
00:06:29,500 --> 00:06:30,458
Doctor!

60
00:06:30,542 --> 00:06:31,917
He'll be here soon.

61
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,000
Huh? Who?

62
00:06:34,083 --> 00:06:37,292
Come on! I told you already!

63
00:06:37,875 --> 00:06:39,667
This man. Right here!

64
00:06:40,333 --> 00:06:41,500
The CEO.

65
00:06:41,583 --> 00:06:43,292
CEO
YOSHIKI KITO

66
00:06:44,208 --> 00:06:46,208
Professor Kurusu just called us.

67
00:06:46,292 --> 00:06:47,208
Okay.

68
00:06:47,292 --> 00:06:49,792
Doctor, pull yourself together!

69
00:06:49,875 --> 00:06:50,792
You too, Saikawa!

70
00:06:50,875 --> 00:06:52,000
Huh? Okay.

71
00:06:52,083 --> 00:06:57,000
Apparently he's made a huge donation
to Professor Kurusu's lab.

72
00:06:57,958 --> 00:07:00,333
If the treatment goes well, he might--

73
00:07:00,417 --> 00:07:01,958
-Hello!
-He's here.

74
00:07:02,458 --> 00:07:04,167
Coming!

75
00:07:14,667 --> 00:07:19,333
This is rosemary
and lemongrass herbal tea.

76
00:07:19,833 --> 00:07:22,417
I hope it's to your liking.

77
00:07:34,583 --> 00:07:35,833
What brings you in today?

78
00:07:39,375 --> 00:07:41,500
I want to quit virtual sex.

79
00:07:42,417 --> 00:07:43,667
"Virtual sex"?

80
00:07:45,542 --> 00:07:48,750
What exactly is virtual sex?

81
00:07:48,833 --> 00:07:52,000
You put on goggles and sensors,
enter a virtual world,

82
00:07:52,875 --> 00:07:54,708
and have sex as avatars.

83
00:07:54,792 --> 00:07:56,125
VIRTUAL SEX

84
00:07:56,208 --> 00:07:58,667
I TRIED SEX IN A VR WORLD

85
00:08:06,875 --> 00:08:07,875
Sorry.

86
00:08:08,458 --> 00:08:09,500
Show me.

87
00:08:10,292 --> 00:08:11,292
Huh?

88
00:08:14,708 --> 00:08:16,208
O-Okay.

89
00:08:19,500 --> 00:08:20,708
Excuse me.

90
00:08:29,875 --> 00:08:33,542
This is exactly the world I usually go to.

91
00:08:33,625 --> 00:08:35,208
"World"?

92
00:08:35,708 --> 00:08:39,917
It's where people like me
who want to have virtual sex gather.

93
00:08:40,417 --> 00:08:43,500
There are also worlds
for just just chatting,

94
00:08:43,583 --> 00:08:49,167
pub-style worlds, sleeping worlds,
and countless others.

95
00:08:50,583 --> 00:08:51,792
I see.

96
00:08:52,375 --> 00:08:55,167
I spend hours in here every day.

97
00:08:55,250 --> 00:08:59,250
I even skipped a board meeting recently.
It's starting to affect my work.

98
00:08:59,833 --> 00:09:02,792
That's certainly a problem.

99
00:09:03,292 --> 00:09:07,375
I consulted with an acquaintance,
Mr. Kurusu, and he referred me here.

100
00:09:11,958 --> 00:09:13,208
Man, I don't--

101
00:09:13,292 --> 00:09:15,750
"Understand it at all," right?

102
00:09:15,833 --> 00:09:18,500
Instead of saying that,
why not give it some thought?

103
00:09:18,583 --> 00:09:22,333
He could become the biggest client
we've ever had.

104
00:09:23,333 --> 00:09:24,958
Was the donation that big?

105
00:09:25,042 --> 00:09:26,333
I guess so.

106
00:09:26,833 --> 00:09:28,750
Here you go.

107
00:09:29,667 --> 00:09:31,042
Thanks.

108
00:09:31,542 --> 00:09:34,500
Virtual sex is basically
just masturbation, right?

109
00:09:34,583 --> 00:09:36,500
You're doing it by yourself.

110
00:09:36,583 --> 00:09:37,917
Exactly.

111
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,917
Even if there's a person
behind the avatar, you can't touch them.

112
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,542
That's where phantom sense comes in.

113
00:09:45,625 --> 00:09:47,708
People say it feels
just like being touched.

114
00:09:47,792 --> 00:09:50,833
No way. That's ridiculous.
It's impossible.

115
00:09:51,542 --> 00:09:53,042
Then what flavor is that?

116
00:09:53,125 --> 00:09:55,250
Huh? It's strawberry.

117
00:09:55,750 --> 00:09:56,750
And yours?

118
00:09:56,833 --> 00:09:57,958
Lemon.

119
00:09:59,167 --> 00:10:01,083
It's a popular myth, isn't it?

120
00:10:01,167 --> 00:10:04,167
All shaved ice syrups
are actually the same flavor.

121
00:10:04,250 --> 00:10:05,083
Huh?

122
00:10:05,167 --> 00:10:08,708
Right. The color and smell
make you think they taste different.

123
00:10:08,792 --> 00:10:10,042
That's right.

124
00:10:10,125 --> 00:10:13,833
Your eyes and nose trick you
into tasting something that's not there.

125
00:10:13,917 --> 00:10:16,250
In the same way,
your eyes and ears trick you

126
00:10:16,333 --> 00:10:18,833
into feeling something that's not there.

127
00:10:19,458 --> 00:10:22,625
Are you making shaved ice
just to make that point, Professor?

128
00:10:30,500 --> 00:10:36,208
Some things are hard to understand
until you experience them yourself.

129
00:10:38,833 --> 00:10:39,833
But

130
00:10:40,833 --> 00:10:44,167
the equipment is pretty expensive.

131
00:10:49,167 --> 00:10:52,125
I'll allow it.
It's a necessary investment.

132
00:11:10,875 --> 00:11:13,708
So, why me?

133
00:11:14,333 --> 00:11:16,667
I want to see your reaction firsthand,

134
00:11:16,750 --> 00:11:18,042
so please.

135
00:11:21,375 --> 00:11:23,500
I was thinking about this,

136
00:11:23,583 --> 00:11:25,958
but this isn't really
a nurse's job, is it?

137
00:11:29,917 --> 00:11:34,083
But I think it's important
to also understand how the client feels.

138
00:11:41,583 --> 00:11:43,000
This is wild!

139
00:11:50,042 --> 00:11:52,125
There are so many girls here.

140
00:11:52,208 --> 00:11:56,208
That's the world where people
looking for virtual sex gather.

141
00:11:56,292 --> 00:11:58,708
Once you find a match,
you go to a playroom.

142
00:12:04,750 --> 00:12:05,833
I can walk!

143
00:12:05,917 --> 00:12:07,000
Wow!

144
00:12:07,083 --> 00:12:10,167
Try talking to someone.
If you can, go to a playroom.

145
00:12:10,250 --> 00:12:11,667
Sure.

146
00:12:12,542 --> 00:12:14,667
I wonder what I look like right now.

147
00:12:21,667 --> 00:12:25,542
YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR AVATAR LATER

148
00:12:30,708 --> 00:12:31,917
This one looks like you.

149
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,000
What?

150
00:12:38,125 --> 00:12:40,208
I'm gonna hit on girls with your avatar.

151
00:12:40,292 --> 00:12:42,292
Hey. Wait a minute.

152
00:12:47,667 --> 00:12:48,542
Hello.

153
00:12:50,208 --> 00:12:53,042
I noticed you were my type.

154
00:12:53,125 --> 00:12:54,625
You're cute.

155
00:12:54,708 --> 00:12:55,542
Thanks!

156
00:12:56,750 --> 00:12:59,250
What? Is something wrong?

157
00:13:00,667 --> 00:13:03,750
I thought it was a girl,
but it was actually a guy.

158
00:13:03,833 --> 00:13:04,708
Oh, I see.

159
00:13:04,792 --> 00:13:06,583
Don't just say, "I see"!

160
00:13:06,667 --> 00:13:10,000
But isn't that kind of rude?
You're the one who approached him.

161
00:13:11,750 --> 00:13:15,083
I wonder what kind of avatar
Mr. Kito uses.

162
00:13:23,583 --> 00:13:25,792
Well…

163
00:13:26,292 --> 00:13:28,333
Sorry. You caught me off guard.

164
00:13:29,125 --> 00:13:30,708
Is this your first time?

165
00:13:30,792 --> 00:13:31,625
Yes.

166
00:13:31,708 --> 00:13:34,583
I see. That makes sense.

167
00:13:34,667 --> 00:13:38,333
But most of the girls here
are actually guys.

168
00:13:38,417 --> 00:13:40,417
Huh? Really?

169
00:13:40,500 --> 00:13:41,708
Yeah.

170
00:13:41,792 --> 00:13:45,542
Some people use their real voice like me,
and others use voice changers.

171
00:13:46,375 --> 00:13:48,917
I'm sure there are some real girls too,

172
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,833
but it's no fun worrying about that.

173
00:13:53,375 --> 00:13:54,875
Is that how it is?

174
00:13:54,958 --> 00:13:56,792
So, what do you think?

175
00:13:56,875 --> 00:13:58,667
Do you wanna to do it with me?

176
00:13:58,750 --> 00:13:59,833
What?

177
00:14:01,458 --> 00:14:04,625
Wow! It really feels like
he's touching me.

178
00:14:04,708 --> 00:14:08,500
Hey, wait. Hold on!

179
00:15:30,458 --> 00:15:33,333
DAD

180
00:16:23,083 --> 00:16:25,083
You were really going at it.

181
00:16:26,583 --> 00:16:28,500
I just wanted to clear my head.

182
00:16:29,083 --> 00:16:30,500
Blowing off steam?

183
00:16:31,042 --> 00:16:32,042
Yes.

184
00:16:34,625 --> 00:16:36,875
I used to make candles instead.

185
00:16:37,375 --> 00:16:38,208
Candles?

186
00:16:41,042 --> 00:16:44,667
Every time something bad happened,
I'd make a candle.

187
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,667
It helped me empty my mind.

188
00:16:49,542 --> 00:16:53,792
But they started taking over my shelf,

189
00:16:53,875 --> 00:16:55,958
so I switched to swimming.

190
00:16:57,208 --> 00:16:59,250
How many bad thingsdidhappen to you?

191
00:17:01,250 --> 00:17:03,167
I don't even want to count.

192
00:17:06,667 --> 00:17:08,083
What about good food?

193
00:17:08,667 --> 00:17:10,500
Does it help when you're stressed?

194
00:17:10,583 --> 00:17:11,667
Huh?

195
00:17:11,750 --> 00:17:12,917
Let's go out to eat.

196
00:17:13,417 --> 00:17:16,667
I don't know what happened,
but it might help you forget about it.

197
00:17:19,417 --> 00:17:22,625
You're right. That might be a good idea.

198
00:17:23,708 --> 00:17:24,875
Let's go on Friday.

199
00:17:25,375 --> 00:17:26,917
After the show.

200
00:17:37,083 --> 00:17:38,375
Is that right?

201
00:17:38,458 --> 00:17:40,792
And did you have sex?

202
00:17:40,875 --> 00:17:43,458
No. We didn't go that far.

203
00:17:43,542 --> 00:17:45,667
But he touched me all over.

204
00:17:45,750 --> 00:17:48,958
I'd get chills every time. It felt weird.

205
00:17:49,625 --> 00:17:52,667
But then his avatar
suddenly stopped moving.

206
00:17:53,167 --> 00:17:56,042
It just went limp and stayed still.

207
00:17:57,083 --> 00:17:58,542
Oh, that?

208
00:17:58,625 --> 00:18:02,208
He probably took off the sensors
and started jerking off.

209
00:18:05,375 --> 00:18:08,333
I see. That makes sense!

210
00:18:08,417 --> 00:18:10,042
So that's what it was.

211
00:18:10,125 --> 00:18:14,333
Once you've developed phantom sense,
you can climax without touching yourself.

212
00:18:14,417 --> 00:18:16,333
But most people do it physically at first.

213
00:18:17,500 --> 00:18:18,458
What about you?

214
00:18:18,542 --> 00:18:20,375
Now I don't need to touch myself.

215
00:18:21,250 --> 00:18:26,917
That makes it sound more like sex
than masturbation.

216
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:27,875
Exactly!

217
00:18:27,958 --> 00:18:30,875
You can have sex
without physically touching.

218
00:18:30,958 --> 00:18:33,833
Looks and gender don't matter either.

219
00:18:35,292 --> 00:18:37,208
What kind of avatar do you use?

220
00:18:40,208 --> 00:18:41,500
This is my avatar.

221
00:18:45,875 --> 00:18:48,542
Why did you choose this one?

222
00:18:51,042 --> 00:18:54,792
It's not that I want to be a woman.

223
00:18:55,625 --> 00:18:56,833
But

224
00:18:57,500 --> 00:19:00,792
when I found her, something just clicked.

225
00:19:00,875 --> 00:19:04,250
And when I tried it, it felt so natural.

226
00:19:07,917 --> 00:19:10,542
I feel at ease when I am her.

227
00:19:11,208 --> 00:19:13,000
As strange as that sounds.

228
00:19:16,250 --> 00:19:19,917
Do you remember
what got you into virtual sex?

229
00:19:28,208 --> 00:19:30,417
I think it was stress from work.

230
00:19:32,833 --> 00:19:36,917
Even though I'm the CEO,
I feel like an outsider at the office.

231
00:19:39,042 --> 00:19:42,875
Once the business took off
and we had more money and staff,

232
00:19:42,958 --> 00:19:47,292
the partners I'd started it with
became like strangers.

233
00:19:53,667 --> 00:19:54,667
No.

234
00:19:55,208 --> 00:19:56,667
That's not it.

235
00:19:59,208 --> 00:20:01,375
I think my wife was the reason.

236
00:20:05,958 --> 00:20:08,375
My wife, Atsuko, changed too.

237
00:20:16,167 --> 00:20:17,292
Here.

238
00:20:17,375 --> 00:20:18,375
Thanks.

239
00:20:19,125 --> 00:20:20,750
You're still not going to bed?

240
00:20:21,250 --> 00:20:23,333
I want to finish this tonight.

241
00:20:24,875 --> 00:20:27,083
What's that? A spy code?

242
00:20:29,167 --> 00:20:30,875
I don't get it at all.

243
00:20:32,542 --> 00:20:35,250
She used to laugh a lot.

244
00:20:35,333 --> 00:20:37,250
Were you a spy, Yoshiki?

245
00:20:37,333 --> 00:20:40,042
She was too good
for a computer nerd like me.

246
00:20:43,208 --> 00:20:44,208
Hey…

247
00:20:46,458 --> 00:20:49,458
When I told her I wanted to quit my job
and start a business,

248
00:20:49,542 --> 00:20:51,875
she encouraged me more than anyone.

249
00:20:52,875 --> 00:20:57,042
She said, "That business will succeed!"
even though she knew nothing about it.

250
00:21:02,875 --> 00:21:04,458
But now…

251
00:21:32,417 --> 00:21:33,458
Will you help me?

252
00:21:33,542 --> 00:21:34,417
What? Me?

253
00:21:34,500 --> 00:21:35,417
Yeah. Will you?

254
00:21:44,333 --> 00:21:46,792
She started coming home drunk more often.

255
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:55,833
Hey…

256
00:21:59,833 --> 00:22:01,667
Sorry. Can it wait?

257
00:22:07,458 --> 00:22:08,417
Of course,

258
00:22:09,417 --> 00:22:11,625
we haven't had sex in years.

259
00:22:21,792 --> 00:22:23,500
Because I was lonely,

260
00:22:25,500 --> 00:22:27,833
I got hooked on virtual sex.

261
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,000
Once I became successful,

262
00:22:33,500 --> 00:22:37,292
everyone around me changed.

263
00:22:49,250 --> 00:22:50,500
Here. Look.

264
00:23:06,958 --> 00:23:09,917
Would it be okay
if I spoke with your wife too?

265
00:23:10,875 --> 00:23:12,792
Sure. I don't mind.

277
00:24:27,208 --> 00:24:28,208
Oh, Ichinose.

278
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,458
I just sent you the link.

279
00:24:31,542 --> 00:24:32,542
I got it.

280
00:24:32,625 --> 00:24:34,458
-You like sushi, right?
-Yes.

281
00:24:35,042 --> 00:24:37,333
Yay! High-end sushi.

282
00:24:38,833 --> 00:24:41,000
Hi, you two.

283
00:24:41,875 --> 00:24:43,708
-Hi.
-Hi.

284
00:24:50,042 --> 00:24:51,500
Is it okay if we meet there?

285
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,042
I've got a meeting after the show.

286
00:24:54,542 --> 00:24:56,000
Of course. That's fine.

287
00:24:56,500 --> 00:24:57,500
See you then.

288
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,000
Sushi.

289
00:25:08,208 --> 00:25:10,042
Thank you for meeting with me today.

290
00:25:10,875 --> 00:25:14,250
I wanted to talk to you in this world too,

291
00:25:14,333 --> 00:25:15,917
so I chose this avatar.

292
00:25:16,667 --> 00:25:18,500
No problem. Thank you.

293
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,250
Regular visits to the clinic
started to become a bit of a hassle,

294
00:25:22,333 --> 00:25:23,833
so this really helps.

295
00:25:24,833 --> 00:25:26,500
I'm glad to hear that.

296
00:25:30,583 --> 00:25:34,542
The other day, you asked me
why I use this avatar, right?

297
00:25:35,250 --> 00:25:36,250
Yes.

298
00:25:37,042 --> 00:25:39,125
I gave it some thought.

299
00:25:41,458 --> 00:25:43,208
I think it's because…

300
00:25:46,833 --> 00:25:50,125
my real body feels more like
an avatar than this one does.

301
00:25:53,208 --> 00:25:56,042
I feel like I have to act like a CEO

302
00:25:57,125 --> 00:25:59,792
and dress appropriately.

303
00:26:02,583 --> 00:26:04,417
I wear expensive clothes,

304
00:26:05,083 --> 00:26:07,083
drive an expensive car,

305
00:26:07,167 --> 00:26:09,500
live in an expensive house,
and put on a brave face.

306
00:26:12,083 --> 00:26:13,083
But

307
00:26:15,458 --> 00:26:18,458
when I take this form,
I don't have to act tough.

308
00:26:20,917 --> 00:26:23,042
I can shed the skin of a successful CEO

309
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,250
and just be my true self.

310
00:26:28,958 --> 00:26:33,750
Admitting your own weaknesses
is the first step to treating addiction.

311
00:26:34,625 --> 00:26:38,333
Why don't you try sharing
those feelings with your wife?

312
00:26:38,417 --> 00:26:40,167
I can't do that.

313
00:26:40,792 --> 00:26:45,125
If I could, I'd like to get it
all off my chest and feel better.

314
00:26:48,375 --> 00:26:50,708
But she wouldn't listen to any of this.

315
00:26:51,458 --> 00:26:52,750
I told you, didn't I?

316
00:26:53,583 --> 00:26:55,833
She tunes me out
whenever I try to talk to her.

317
00:27:00,333 --> 00:27:01,708
The other day,

318
00:27:03,083 --> 00:27:05,500
I suddenly remembered something
on my way home.

319
00:27:07,458 --> 00:27:09,667
The day I decided to get married.

320
00:27:10,917 --> 00:27:13,958
I'd started a company,
but it was going nowhere.

321
00:27:16,125 --> 00:27:18,667
I was running out of savings too.

322
00:27:19,167 --> 00:27:20,458
I'm sorry.

323
00:27:21,792 --> 00:27:24,958
You don't wanna marry
a guy like me, right?

324
00:27:25,042 --> 00:27:28,292
I wasn't sure whether I should get married
when my life was so unstable,

325
00:27:28,375 --> 00:27:31,167
or whether I could provide for her.

326
00:27:31,667 --> 00:27:34,875
You don't wanna marry
a guy like me, right?

327
00:27:34,958 --> 00:27:36,375
When I let my doubts slip…

328
00:27:37,292 --> 00:27:40,250
I never asked you to provide for me.

329
00:27:44,542 --> 00:27:45,375
Huh?

330
00:27:45,458 --> 00:27:48,542
Why does marriage mean providing for me?

331
00:27:48,625 --> 00:27:51,042
I can earn my own living.

332
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,250
Don't get me wrong.
I'm not saying I'll provide foryou.

333
00:27:57,917 --> 00:28:00,250
I know that!

334
00:28:01,458 --> 00:28:04,667
That made me so happy.

335
00:28:06,208 --> 00:28:07,958
If you still remember that,

336
00:28:09,875 --> 00:28:12,167
why are you still doing things
you don't want to?

337
00:28:13,958 --> 00:28:14,792
What?

338
00:28:16,667 --> 00:28:20,667
I'm asking why you're settling
for a life you don't want!

339
00:28:47,333 --> 00:28:48,542
Wait!

340
00:28:49,042 --> 00:28:50,208
No!

341
00:28:50,292 --> 00:28:51,750
I said wait!

342
00:28:58,375 --> 00:28:59,875
Stop running away!

343
00:28:59,958 --> 00:29:01,125
No!

344
00:29:03,583 --> 00:29:04,417
Huh?

345
00:29:05,250 --> 00:29:07,375
Listen to me!

346
00:29:08,750 --> 00:29:09,958
No!

347
00:29:10,042 --> 00:29:12,208
I can't do this!

348
00:29:13,875 --> 00:29:16,458
You're the one who never listened to me!

349
00:29:50,792 --> 00:29:54,458
I didn't listen because I already knew

350
00:29:54,542 --> 00:29:57,625
what was coming after your "hey."

351
00:29:59,375 --> 00:30:01,167
I could tell if it was about your dreams

352
00:30:03,292 --> 00:30:05,375
or just another complaint.

353
00:30:07,375 --> 00:30:10,542
I've had enough of that dead-eyed "hey."

354
00:30:13,417 --> 00:30:14,792
But as the CEO, I--

355
00:30:14,875 --> 00:30:16,333
Did you want to become a CEO?

356
00:30:16,917 --> 00:30:18,208
You didn't, right?

357
00:30:18,292 --> 00:30:22,625
Didn't you want to create a service
that would make people's lives easier?

358
00:30:22,708 --> 00:30:24,750
So you're saying you'd be fine with me

359
00:30:25,625 --> 00:30:27,667
quitting as CEO and becoming poor again?

360
00:30:27,750 --> 00:30:30,208
Didn't you like living in luxury?

361
00:30:30,292 --> 00:30:31,875
Dressing up, going to parties…

362
00:30:31,958 --> 00:30:34,208
You're so stupid!

363
00:30:34,708 --> 00:30:37,000
That was networking. And you're bad at it!

364
00:30:38,375 --> 00:30:41,042
A grumpy-faced CEO
makes everyone else feel uneasy.

365
00:30:41,125 --> 00:30:44,333
Do you know how hard I've worked
to keep the mood up?

366
00:30:45,417 --> 00:30:49,125
I'd feel a lot better
if I didn't have to do that anymore!

367
00:30:58,958 --> 00:31:00,917
You're really okay with me quitting?

368
00:31:02,833 --> 00:31:06,500
There's a service I've wanted to build,
but no one else is on board.

369
00:31:07,667 --> 00:31:08,875
Go ahead.

370
00:31:10,708 --> 00:31:13,250
Go make your spy code again.

371
00:31:14,500 --> 00:31:15,917
But in return,

372
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:21,500
I want you to tell me about your dreams
with that sparkle in your eyes again.

373
00:31:35,333 --> 00:31:36,542
I knew.

374
00:31:39,167 --> 00:31:42,000
I knew you were into this kind of thing.

375
00:31:53,083 --> 00:31:54,708
I was shocked,

376
00:31:56,833 --> 00:31:59,042
but trying it now, it's not so bad.

377
00:32:01,458 --> 00:32:04,250
That avatar suits you.

378
00:32:10,292 --> 00:32:12,625
I should've talked to you sooner.

379
00:32:15,250 --> 00:32:17,125
You can say that again!

380
00:32:19,708 --> 00:32:22,417
I'm really sorry.

381
00:33:02,250 --> 00:33:03,833
Thank you very much.

382
00:33:18,500 --> 00:33:21,750
You were a great help, Saikawa.

383
00:33:22,458 --> 00:33:23,417
Huh?

384
00:33:24,375 --> 00:33:27,917
I almost got her hurt.

385
00:33:29,542 --> 00:33:30,625
Thank you.

386
00:33:33,042 --> 00:33:36,583
Well, I think I'm more athletic
than you, Doctor.

387
00:33:38,708 --> 00:33:40,333
Why?

388
00:33:40,417 --> 00:33:42,458
Why'd you give them to her?

389
00:33:42,542 --> 00:33:44,917
Those goggles and sensors were expensive!

390
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:46,375
We don't need them anymore.

391
00:33:46,458 --> 00:33:47,875
If you didn't need them,

392
00:33:48,583 --> 00:33:51,125
we could've sold them online!

393
00:33:51,708 --> 00:33:53,125
You'd better get us a donation!

394
00:33:53,208 --> 00:33:55,292
He said he's stepping down as CEO,

395
00:33:55,375 --> 00:33:57,583
so money might be tight
for him for a while.

396
00:33:57,667 --> 00:33:58,500
Right?

397
00:33:59,208 --> 00:34:00,833
-What?
-Yes.

398
00:34:04,250 --> 00:34:06,333
What's the plan for his treatment?

399
00:34:07,167 --> 00:34:08,625
Of course, we'll continue.

400
00:34:09,125 --> 00:34:13,208
But I don't think he needs to stop
virtual sex altogether

401
00:34:14,750 --> 00:34:16,917
as long as he maintains
healthy boundaries.

402
00:34:18,208 --> 00:34:22,167
So I had him promise
to only use it with his wife.

403
00:34:23,583 --> 00:34:28,125
Sex involves both
physical and emotional pleasure.

404
00:34:29,958 --> 00:34:33,583
And virtual sex,
which focuses on the emotional side,

405
00:34:35,208 --> 00:34:40,042
may help them reconnect.

406
00:34:43,375 --> 00:34:45,083
What's important is

407
00:34:46,042 --> 00:34:48,500
acknowledging your weaknesses…

408
00:34:53,750 --> 00:34:56,667
and being honest about how you feel.

409
00:35:05,917 --> 00:35:07,333
SUSHI YUKIAKARI

410
00:35:11,583 --> 00:35:12,792
Ichinose.

411
00:35:22,458 --> 00:35:24,667
Sorry. I surprised you, didn't I?

412
00:35:25,792 --> 00:35:26,792
No.

413
00:35:28,292 --> 00:35:30,250
Actually, yeah, you did.

414
00:35:35,042 --> 00:35:37,667
About the other day…

415
00:35:45,333 --> 00:35:49,333
It's not that I was rejecting you.

416
00:36:13,375 --> 00:36:14,375
I…

417
00:36:18,167 --> 00:36:19,833
I can't have sex.

418
00:36:22,458 --> 00:36:24,250
-What?
-So…

419
00:36:24,333 --> 00:36:27,875
I wanted you to know that
the problem was with me that night.

420
00:36:41,417 --> 00:36:43,250
I like you.

421
00:36:47,125 --> 00:36:48,125
Will you

422
00:36:49,083 --> 00:36:50,708
go out with me?

423
00:38:48,042 --> 00:38:49,958
