Thanks all!

Without any visible way back,

I start to wander in the single road,

and recall all my dreams from somewhere, like dejavu

Passing through, passing through, the direction is great and all...

But this road back is a little scary...

Ahh, so are you born and do you die here?

No matter how much you try to resist, nobody can

ever escape this wheel of fortune

when it whirls around where the cicadas cry.

Quiet! Okay, sit down.

Who?

Who did it?

Satoko-chan?

Yes!

You did it right?

It wasn't me.

Rika-chan?

Yes?

Please tell me who did it.

I don't know.

Rena-chan?

Yes.

You're on day duty today.

I haven't heard the morning greetings yet.

Yes.

Stand.

Bow.

Good morning.

Sit.

Today I want to introduce a new transfer student to this school.

I'm Maebara Keiichi. I came from Tokyo.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you!

Okay. You can sit in that open seat there.

Alright.

I'm Sonozaki Mion.

I'm the class president, nice to meet you.

one month later

Here.

Oh, thank you.

I'm off.

Have a safe trip.

Where's Keiichi going?

Today his friends from school are showing him around the village.

So that means he's completely blended in now.

Before he was all like "I want to go home already." so persistently.

Even though we've been worried about him that much...

Like I said...

You're worrying too much.

Kids are really strong beings.

If they become too spoiled, they lose that original flame...

This is good, you made it?

No, Rena-chan taught me.

Rena-chan? Oh, in Keiichi's class?

In this village, all the adults and children are very kind.

A bit too generous.

You also found the scenery you wanted the most, so draw a lot of good pictures.

Where are you going?

In Hinamizawa, the current population is 200,000.

The winter air is thick and the convenience for transportation is bad.

But, nobody ever leaves this village.

Why?

Because... everyone loves this village!

The edible plants... mushrooms... berries.

The water in Hinamizawa has the best taste in all of Japan!

Being born here and dying here.

That's the belief of best happiness in this village.

Kei-chan?

This is the demon's mouth.

Demon's mouth, eh...

This is pretty large.

That's right.

This also has a legendary circle here too.

You want to come here next time?

There's something extremely interesting here.

That'd be great!

Its dangerous here so we've been told to not play around here.

You always say things like that.

What's this?

This is a shrine to calm the demons.

A demon?

A long time ago, there was a demon that was born on this village.

There is a legend to this.

That's why that's the demon's mouth.

But... this place really feels good.

Hinamizawa's spiritual guide is above here.

The Furude shrine.

Geez, Kei-chan you're slow! What are you doing?!

You're too fast!

I'm exhausted.

There's a festival at this shrine next Sunday.

Oh I see.

It's your first time here, so you have to pray.

That's right.

I'll pass. I'm not interested in that sort of thing.

You can't! You have to give your greetings to Oyashiro-sama.

No, it's fine. I'll pass on religious things.

You can't!

If you don't give your greetings to Oyashiro-sama...

You'll become cursed!

We're saying this for your sake.

Since I'm here I'll just follow your ways.

I'll just do it, alright?

You can't! You have to do it in order.

What's with you?

Kei-chan. This is how we go to meet Oyashiro-sama.

Extend both arms.

Cross together.

Bow.

We'll repeat it one more time.

Put your hands in front of your chest.

Bow.

Clap.

Bow.

You got it?

Yeah.

You've been saying "Oyashiro-sama" a lot before, who is that person?

The person who protects this village.

This village has always been protected by Oyashiro-sama.

Eh? Whats up with those clothes?

Because Rika is the Furude shrine's maiden.

Did you not know?

Furude Rika... Furude shrine.

Oh I see.

Come this way.

Hinamizawa village always thought very highly of Oyashiro-sama and followed it. You got it?

This is called the Saiguden

What's inside of it?

Oyashiro-sama's important tools are collected inside of it.

Oh? It sounds very interesting.

You are to always avoid it.

Is what is being said.

If you randomly go and peek inside, you'll become cursed.

Here.

Thank you.

You're so kind!

My home is this way, so...

Bye!

Bye-bye!

Mion!

What is it?

Thanks... for taking me around... the village.

Re-chan, bye bye!

Be careful!

Rena, you too.

Thanks.

It's the first time this happened for me.

It was fun.

That's not true...

I think everyone's really happy that you came.

I'm also happy.

no littering

This is...

This is Treasure Mountain.

Treasure Mountain?

People keep on throwing away garbage here.

Mii-chan does it too.

But, to me, it's treasure mountain, with a lot of interesting things in it.

It seems that there's a lot of things gathered from other parts of the country.

This is amazing...

This place was...

...originally a construction site.

A construction site?

That's right.

A dam site.

By dam... you mean that dam?

Hinamizawa village would have been submerged if a dam were built there.

Seriously?

But...

The construction got halted.

I'm really glad.

That construction is...

Tomitake-san!

You surprised me.

Sorry, sorry.

You two look really romantic in the sunset so...

Are you doing good, Rena?

Yes.

A face I haven't seen around here before.

Is he a transfer student?

Maebara Keiichi-kun. He came from Tokyo.

Eh? From Tokyo?

I'm surprised you came to this suburb.

I'm Tomitake.

Oh, that's right, Keiichi. Please wait a moment.

But, aren't you scared coming to a place like this, Rena-chan?

They said that there is still a missing arm, right?
