Ringo Oginome:
I love the word "fate". Because, you know how they talk about "fated encounters"? A single encounter can completely change your life. Such special encounters are not just coincidences. They're definitely... fate. Of course, life is not all happy encounters. There are many painful, sad moments. It's hard to accept that misfortunes beyond your control are fate. But this is what I think: sad and painful things definitely happen for a reason. Nothing in this world is pointless.

Kanba Takakura:
[watching Ringo] It seems like she's doing to Mr. Tabuki what we're doing to her.

Shouma Takakura:
In other words, Ringo Oginome is...

Kanba Takakura:
Mr. Tabuki's stalker.

Ringo Oginome:
Don't worry. Your days of eating dinner alone are almost over. After all, from now on I'll always be with you. I won't let Tabuki-kun be lonely. It's ok. The future is already written right here. Nothing in this world is pointless. I believe in fate.

Shouma Takakura:
I hate the word "fate." Birth, encounters, partings, success and failures, fortune and misfortunes in life. If our lives are already set in stone by fate, then why are we even born? There are those born to wealthy families, those born to beautiful mothers, and those born into the middle of war or poverty. If that's all caused by fate, then God is incredibly unfair and cruel. Because, ever since that day, none of us had a future and the only certain thing was that we wouldn't amount to anything...

Shouma Takakura:
[on Himari's resurrection] At this time, I thought we were just lucky. That unfair and cruel God altered our fate with a tiny miracle on a whim. I thought we even had the right to be happy.

Kanba Takakura:
Why are people born? If people are born only to suffer the hard life, is it meant as some kind of punishment? Or a cynical joke? If that's the case, animals that adhere to the survival strategies programmed in their DNA are far more elegant and simple. If there really is an existence worthy of being called a God, I want to ask him just one thing: Is there really fate in the universe? If a man ignored fate, and ignored his instincts and DNA to love someone else... Dear God, is he really human? Just wondering. I hate the word "fate."

Kanba Takakura:
[to Dr Washizuka] If it's money, I'll get it somehow! If she can't get the surgery in Japan, we can send her overseas! If she needs an organ transplant, she can use mine! So... so, please, don't say there's nothing you can do!

Himari Takakura:
[possessed] Survival strategy!

Himari Takakura:
NADINE!

Himari Takakura:
Listen up, you lowlifes who will never amount to anything!

Kanba Takakura, Shouma Takakura:
What, WHAT, WHAAAT?

Himari Takakura:
Bring me the Penguin Drum!

Shouma Takakura:
What are you talking about, Himari?

Himari Takakura:
I am not your sister. I have come from the destination of your fate.

Kanba Takakura:
It's the hat...

Shouma Takakura:
What?

Kanba Takakura:
That hat is controlling Himari!

Shouma Takakura:
WHAT? It's a toy hat we got at the aquarium!

Himari Takakura:
This girl's life has been temporarily extended using my powers. However, everything comes with a price! I am taking the price for her life.

Shouma Takakura:
Wait! What price...? [falls through a trapdoor]

Himari Takakura:
[possessed] I have come from the destination of your fate. Rejoice, for I have decided to extend this girl's life. If you want to keep the girl alive... [the hat falls off Himari]
