Following, she shows them a picture book of a hero story while wearing a red muffler.

One day she sees her dad planning an experiment on her friends, Takane and Haruka. Devastated by this, she tries to save them by committing suicide, thus entering the Kagerou Daze.

What I thought back on was, again, my family; "Ayano is your big sister, so get along with her, everyone!"

In a little house with red brick walls, They whisper to each other, as if making secret plans In the three pairs of red eyes brought here Lie pasts they have hidden from adults

With fear in their eyes, they cry "I'm just a monster" So I tell them, "That's not true at all" "Red is the color of a hero, so there's no need to be afraid"

Wondering what they would find fun, I am playing the big sister again "Hey, look!" I wrapped myself up in a red scarf; "We're like secret agents!"

Dyed in madder red, we'll begin, even if we're merely playing heroes "As long as we can manage just a little smile..." We will be family still today I pray for happiness in the future ahead, so however sad it may be... "Now keep this a secret!" The sun sets with us laughing

The spring breeze blows, and the now-adult world Is irrationally bent, as if conspired to be The thick and faded tears of loved ones Go unnoticed by all, turning black

Things had gone crazy, but by the time I noticed, I could not tell anyone "No, no, I don't want to be destroyed!" There came a world where happiness ends

"Red colored eyes, please. No more; don't bring ruin to anyone else's future." I thought as I cried again, keeping it hidden with a smile

"If I had those red eyes myself, could I save someone's future?" Awkward and shameful, this is my lonely plan

Now that I'm gone, I wonder if those secret agents Are still getting along, and smiling together? I'm sure they must be upset with me But I wonder if I have become their "big sister" now

Please try to remember that word I loved; "Happiness" is a curious thing, So I hope you can love tomorrow...
