Three minutes remaining in Round 13.
I couldn't care less about you.
Damn!
Two people remaining until checkmate.
Lady?
Everyone's more concerned about their own lives than that kid
and has joined the Queen Team.
Nobody wants to kill a child, but…
it's different when your own life's on the line.
We value our own lives over others'.
That's the way we humans are.
I can tell…
you've never known anyone
who was precious to you.
I despise hypocrites like you.
If this kid's that important to you, then die together.
But I know
that you'll change your mind sooner or later.
You'll see.
Are you okay?
I swear
I'll keep you alive.
Round 14, the Challenger Team's turn, will now commence.
The round lasts for five minutes.
Start.
Usagi!
Wait there!
Are you okay?
I've got an idea. Come with me.
Ow!
-Are you okay? -Any sign of them?
Not much time left.
Run!
Usagi, we need at least five more. There's a bunch upstairs.
-Let's go! -Wait!
We've got to hurry! There's no time!
Wait.
Do you guys really want to be on the Queen Team and win?
You're damn right.
I don't want to die.
If we're on the Queen Team and win, we can stay here forever.
Then we won't have to participate in other games,
and we won't get shot at all the time.
Isn't there something more important than winning this game?
Right now, winning this game is what's important!
You're all wrong.
Right now,
what's most important isn't winning this game.
It's returning to the real world.
If you're only worried about winning the game
and then do as the tough Queen says, you'll probably win.
And you may be able to survive in this world forever.
But is that what you want?
If our team wins and we defeat the Queen,
as well as all the face cards,
we might be able to return to the real world.
There's no way in hell we'll be able to go back.
That other world
has ended.
The games always follow their rules.
When the face cards lose, they're killed.
So if we defeat all the face cards,
these games will end for sure.
There are no games after that.
That's just your fantasy.
Maybe so.
But…
the only people who survive are the ones who hold onto that hope.
Even if you can continue to survive here with the Queen,
it just means
you live forever in this game where you're killing each other!
If you don't want that…
then take a chance with us.
This place is a lot like the real world.
Do you really want to return to the real world that badly?
That place…
totally sucked.
I think this place might actually be better.
I'll admit,
until now, I thought that way.
The real world may not be a bed of roses.
But…
I want to go back.
I want to go back to the real world.
Even though it was full of pain,
it was the world that gave me life
and raised me.
I miss it.
It's a cold and lonely place,
but because of my life there,
I was able to discover
the kindness in people here.
I'd forgotten about that until now.
I want to go back…
and start over again there.
I…
want to go back.
I also…
want go back.
I want to go back…
and be with my family.
Do you think
I can also start over again?
There are two rounds remaining.
Round 15, the Queen Team's final turn, will now commence.
The round lasts for five minutes.
Start.
There are 14 of them.
To gain a majority, we'll need to take back five.
That won't be easy in just one turn.
And they can win just by running away.
We'll just have to go after them one by one.
No.
There's another way.
I swear I'll get that guy on my team before the end.
What about the woman?
We don't need her.
I'll show her that hypocrisy is pointless in this land.
-Let's go! -Come on!
Over there!
-We'll get you! -Stop!
We don't need you. Get out of the way!
Wait! Go after her!
-This way! -All right!
Go up!
He's over there!
There he is!
Stop right there!
Round 15 will be ending soon.
Thirty seconds remaining.
The final round.
Start.
Go!
Arisu!
He went that way!
-Yes! We did it! -We did it!
-Yes! We did it! -Yahoo! We did it!
Thank god! We did it!
-Thank you! -You too!
Thank goodness.
Lady.
I don't know how you persuaded everyone,
but well done, Miss Hypocrite.
I simply
want to get out of this land with the people precious to me.
That's all.
Oh, really?
We're a hell of a lot freer here.
I like it here better than in that rigid, repressive world.
Just as I thought,
you all were players like us and have stayed in this world.
Isn't that right?
You'll find out once all the games are over.
When they're all over?
What will we find out when they're all over?
You'll know the answer to that only after you've cleared the last one.
Will we know what this world is?
Will we be able to go back?
That's something for you to look forward to.
-Time has run out. -Hey!
The game is over for all members of the Queen Team.
I want to live free until the very end.
Farewell.
I want to finish these games fast
and find out the answer.
But I want to survive
and return to the real world
with you, Usagi.
Me too.
Hey, look at that.
This smell…
Did you fart?
No.
It's hot!
Wow! It's a hot spring.
This is a hot spring!
Usagi!
This is awesome!
It's really a hot spring!
The water is just right here!
Seriously?
Let's take a bath!
I haven't had a bath in ages!
We can't let this chance go!
Together?
What? Oh…
You know, I wouldn't mind dying now.
If only…
we could wash away all the pain here too.
That's for sure.
What's wrong?
Usagi?
Hey!
Usagi!
No way.
Incredible.
The elephants are bathing too.
They must have escaped from the zoo.
If we hadn't come to this land…
We never would have seen this.
Yeah.
What's wrong with me?
Suddenly, I feel
incredibly moved.
Me too.
Sorry! I didn't see anything.
I was looking at the elephants. I'm only interested in them.
I like elephants.
It's okay.
Stay here with me.
There it is.
KIMIKO KUINA ADMITTED: JUNE 2, 2021
I want to see you, Mom.
She's so young. It's so heartbreaking.
All the results of disgusting human desires.
Maybe there's no hope for this world.
Even though she knew she'd die,
she fought desperately until the end.
She never gave up hope.
I've still got hope.
SUPREME COURT
Well, well.
So, you were the King of Diamonds.
The former executive at the Beach
and Number 2, Kuzuryu.
Why was the King of Diamonds at the Beach?
I was interested in it.
You went undercover?
Difficulty level, King of Diamonds.
Game: Balance Scale.
Shall we begin?
BALANCE SCALE
Rules: Within the three-minute time limit,
select a number between 0 and 100.
The average of the numbers chosen is then multiplied by 0.8.
The person who chooses the number closest to this is the winner.
The average of the numbers that everyone selects
is multiplied by 0.8.
And whoever gets closest to it wins.
What? Multiply the average by 0.8?
Why multiply by 0.8? What's with 0.8?
I get it.
By multiplying by the constant 0.8, it tips the balance of the scale.
That's how it becomes a game.
The 0.8 is like a drop from heaven.
Everyone except for the winner loses one point.
Then the round ends.
When a player reaches negative ten points, the game is over for that player.
The one person who survives until the end is the victor.
However, every time a player loses, a new rule is introduced.
New rules? What's with that?
And no explanation of the balance scales either?
Round 1 will now start.
Time has expired.
Here are the results for Round 1.
The average…
is 32.8.
This is multiplied by the constant 0.8.
RESULT: 26.24
This is the person who is closest.
The winner is Kuzuryu.
If everyone selects 40,
the average will obviously be 40.
When that's multiplied by 0.8, it comes to 32.
If everyone made the same assumption and chose 32,
the result will still be multiplied by 0.8.
As long as that happens, the result will continue to decrease.
Even if everyone chooses the same number,
there won't be a winner.
I get it now.
We need to predict what everyone chooses and then predict again even lower.
This is actually more like a heart game.
It's a psychological battle?
Like chess, poker, and all intellectual games,
you have to read your opponent.
But you don't read your opponent psychologically.
You read their logic.
Isn't that right?
Logic?
You're ignoring me?
What's that?
Water?
It's sulfuric acid.
What?
So, you'll answer those kinds of questions.
When you're at negative ten points, the scale must tip.
Your body will melt,
and you'll turn to mush!
Balance scales.
That must mean the King of Diamonds was a lawyer, huh?
That's all in the past.
So it's complicated.
But you still chose this place.
The arena for this game is a court.
And these giant scales…
Like the symbol on a lawyer's pin, they represent fairness and equality.
All lives have equal value, including your own.
Is that what you want to say?
The scales always tip to the side that has more gold.
All lives don't have equal value.
Round 2 will now start.
The last result was 26.
So if that's multiplied by 0.8…
Wait. If everyone has the same idea, I'd have to look farther ahead
and multiply by 0.8 again.
If everyone chooses 100, multiply that by 0.8 and you get 80.
There's no point in ever choosing 80 or higher.
If nobody will ever choose 80 or higher, the highest average is 80.
Multiply that by 0.8 and you get 64.
If the highest average is 64,
when you multiply that by 0.8, you get 51.2.
In other words, 51.
The more steps you predict, the closer the result gets to zero.
In the stock market, everyone invariably invests in the brands everyone wants.
Now I just need to predict what everyone will want.
Predicting how many steps ahead everyone else will predict
is the key to this game.
I've already developed the formula for reading everyone's logic.
Time has expired.
Here are the results for Round 2.
The average…
is 16.6.
This is multiplied by the constant 0.8.
RESULT: 13.28
This is the person who is closest.
The winner is Kuzuryu.
Everyone's gotten better at predicting.
The numbers keep getting smaller.
Should I just choose zero?
By logical prediction, the result converges to zero.
Ultimately, everyone will choose zero.
The most logical choice is to choose zero.
But everyone's definition of "logical" is different.
Kuzuryu.
What?
I have a pretty good idea now…
of what you're trying to measure.
The value of life, right?
No.
So what is it?
Tell me.
What if we submit another settlement figure?
The truth is,
twenty people living near the factory died from the damage done to the environment
caused by the waste that the factory dumped.
Their diseases could have been caused by anything.
Where's the proof that our company is to blame?
I heard that you're an extremely talented lawyer,
but you don't truly understand the law, do you?
The law doesn't exist to protect the weak from the powerful.
Everyone is equal under the law.
That's absurd idealism!
To save the starvation of the world,
one needs the power to effortlessly propel the world's economy.
But with your idealism alone,
this incredibly unfair world can't be changed.
So let me ask you this.
What do you think we should do in order to maintain
a perfectly just modern society?
We must make it possible, on every level, to implement a fair judicial system.
Just now,
you said one needs the power to effortlessly propel the world's economy.
But by focusing only on the growth of the economy,
-the wealth gap has widen-- -Listen!
As a lawyer, it's not your duty to defend what's just.
Even idiots can defend the just!
Words like "fairness" and "equality" are useless in a world filled with evil!
However, when something isn't "just,"
then it is your duty to use
the gift of imagination that God gave you to make it "just."
Time has expired.
Here are the results for Round 3.
One hundred?
The average is 20.2.
This is multiplied by the constant 0.8.
This is the closest person.
The winner is Daimon.
What? I won?
Yes!
Hey, you!
What did you do that for?
If you choose 100, you'll lose!
There's a zero percent chance you'll win!
Everyone's dissecting this a little too meticulously, don't you think?
That kind of thing just makes my head hurt,
so I decided to blow it up.
You've lost your marbles.
ROUND 6
Here are the results for Round 6.
The winner is Chishiya.
Here are the results for Round 7.
RESULT: 23.04
The winner is Daimon.
Yes!
That sure won't be a pleasant way to die.
ROUND 10
I've only got one point left.
If I get this one wrong, I'll die.
I thought my formula was perfect!
Oh, dear! I've got no idea what to do! I can't use the same tricks again.
I can't make any more wrong guesses!
If I lose the next one, it's all over!
If you think logically, the numbers will get smaller and smaller.
You must have predicted this would happen.
Here are the results for Round 10.
RESULT: 1.6
The winner is Kuzuryu.
There are participants who have negative ten points.
The game is over for these two participants.
Let me out of here! Please! Let me out of here!
No!
Let me out!
Hey! Let me out of this thing!
I'll do anything you want!
Is it money you want? Please!
Tell me!
-Let me out! -I'll do anything you want!
Now, this is more like a face card game.
Is this what you call fairness?
Since two participants lost, two new rules will be added.
Rule one: If two or more people choose the same number,
their choice will be invalidated and they will lose one point.
Rule two: If the answer is guessed exactly,
the losers will lose two points.
ADDITIONAL RULES
Here are the results for Round 11.
Everybody chose zero…
Since everyone chose the same number, their choices are invalidated.
Everyone loses one point.
What?
In the end, everyone chooses zero.
If that happens again, it's game over for me.
ROUND 12
Round 12 will now start.
Here are the results for Round 12.
RESULT: 22.93
We have an exact winner, so the losers lose two points.
No way…
No way! Impossible! How come?
You saw my choice, didn't you?
That's against the rules!
How else would you know what the hell I chose?
When Round 12 began,
you were at negative eight points.
I was at negative nine points.
Even if you messed up, you'd still have another chance.
So, instead of going for the win,
you bet that he and I would invalidate each other.
So I figured you would choose a random number.
But what are the chances you'd get it right? Are you a psychic?
If he and I invalidate each other, you thought we'd choose from the first 50.
He predicted my exact thoughts.
At the start of the round, the King had more than a three-point lead over him.
If I chose the same as the King,
I couldn't make up the three-point difference.
But if they chose the same numbers, I thought I might win.
So you avoided choosing from the first 50.
If you're going to run away,
then it's only natural that you want to run far.
But even so, 90 to 100 is too extreme and doesn't feel right.
So you avoided those too.
Any doubles are too obvious, so you avoided those as well.
The same goes for 60 and 70 and any easy numbers like that.
The numbers that people often choose on a whim,
that is, 3, 5, and 8, were also out.
All prime numbers were also out.
It became easy after that.
Lastly, any numbers you often see in life that can be easily imagined were out.
A game console.
A movie title.
A brand logo.
Then what we have left is either 62 or 74.
That's as far as I could get.
After that,
it was just luck.
I should have chosen 74.
There is a participant who has negative ten points.
No…
No!
No…
No!
You know…
She said that the value of everyone's life isn't equal.
I wonder if she still thought that just before she died.
Have you
seen the underside of this world with your own eyes?
Infants die because they can't get antidiarrheics that cost mere pennies.
Little girls are sold to pay off their parents' debts.
All the people who can't escape the never-ending cycle of poverty.
A new rule will be added.
ADDITIONAL RULES
When someone chooses zero, whoever chooses 100 will be the winner.
I see.
Since the result is always the average multiplied by 0.8,
as long as there are just two of us, whoever chooses the lower number will win.
In other words, if you keep choosing zero, you'll win for sure.
But thanks to this new rule, everything is fair now.
If one of us chooses zero,
then the other will win if they choose 100.
But if a person predicts that will happen and chooses 100,
then the other person will choose 1.
Those are the only three choices if you want to win this game.
Now it's a fair and simple game
that's a toss-up between zero, 1, and 100.
But I can't choose the same number as you even once if I want to win.
I'm still in a difficult bind.
ROUND 13
You know,
you seem desperate to make things fair.
What's making you do that?
Tell me…
If you had one million doses of a life-saving vaccine,
which one million people would you save?
I see.
Now I understand.
It's not that you're trying to measure the value of life.
You don't want to have to decide the value of life.
Yes. I don't know what makes one life more valuable than another.
A life that's worth saving and a life that is not…
What is the difference between the two?
So, how would you answer my question?
I'd very much like to hear the answer from someone like you.
I'd give them to children without parents or money.
How unexpected.
That would be ideal.
But it's ultimately money that talks.
If you've got money,
then it's very easy to end the lives of poor children.
I know you've seen that world with your own eyes, haven't you?
Yes, I have.
Since a certain company wouldn't pay a settlement,
people died because they couldn't receive proper treatment.
Then you know
that there's no such thing as fairness or equality in this world.
Because there isn't…
Isn't that why we should fight?
There.
It'll be next week.
Hang in there.
Doctor.
Thank you so much.
Not at all.
-I'll be going now. -Goodbye.
Hayato's condition has stabilized,
so this operation should save him.
I need to talk to you about that.
The waiting list order for transplants has changed.
-The order has changed? -Yes.
This patient will get a transplant first.
REFERRAL
The grandson of a friend of the director.
DAIKI TAKAHASHI ADDRESS: SETAGAYA CITY, TOKYO
-Then what about Hayato? -He'll get his later.
They're a big financial donor.
That's how this university hospital survives.
It can't be helped.
Everything has an order of importance in this world.
You explain things to that patient's parents.
What reason should I give?
Think of one.
You're his physician, right?
Well…
Even if he could've gotten a transplant last week,
he probably would've died anyway.
Don't hold it against me.
To save people's lives, you have to abandon your ideals.
I don't mind.
It doesn't bother me at all.
It's part of the job.
KINKI CHUO MEDICAL CENTER
SAKURAZAKA UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL
PHYSICIAN PEDIATRIC CARDIOVASCULAR SURGERY
Take care of it.
Got it.
Very interesting.
I think I may have come to this land
just so I could play this game with you.
I'm choosing 100.
What are you up to?
A little assistance.
Are you insane?
If I know you'll choose 100,
the only way you can survive is if I choose zero!
Mine is a life
that is charging headlong toward death.
Does this life have value or not?
I'd like for you to decide.
Why have you done all this?
We live in a ludicrous world.
If we abandon our ideals, it's all over.
Ideals?
Let's go.
Forget me. You get going.
I can't do that.
In the last game I was in, I was saved by a young man.
So now it's my turn to help someone else.
I won't regret it.
This is my way of living.
Your way of living?
Let's go together.
Time has expired.
Here are the results for Round 13.
The winner is Chishiya.
Did you seriously choose zero?
Round 14 will now start.
The winner is Chishiya.
Each of us has only one point left.
The next round will be the last one.
Round 15 will now start.
How about it?
Can you decide?
If you won't decide for yourself,
then just kill me.
That's a fair rule, right?
You think I am unable to decide.
Was that the reason why you lured me into this tie?
I simply…
want to know…
what the last number you choose will be.
If you choose 1, you will win.
Momoka.
I'd like you to answer just a question.
You asked to play the role of the Witch and take your own life.
What was your reason?
For my ideals.
People have beautiful hearts,
and life is precious.
I believe in those things.
It's because I have those ideals
that I've been able to survive in this ludicrous world.
I will die as the Witch
not because I lost to your rules.
I did it to show you that things won't go your way
and that there won't be a massacre.
If my life's going to end here sometime anyway,
then I want it to end while proving my ideals.
I don't understand
the value of life or its meaning.
I'm sure
I won't be able to make that decision in the future either.
But what I need to decide now is…
Here are the results for Round 15.
I see you've decided
that determining the value of life isn't your decision.
For my ideals.
The winner is Chishiya.
There is a participant who has negative ten points.
The game is over for this participant.
What happened to your usual wry look?
At last,
I think I've been able to…
decide how I want to live.
It's thanks to you.
It's now time for our turn.
Oh, my.
You're not up for it?
At the very least, I want the game that I run
to be fair.
It feels kind of unfair.
It's like you won and quit on me.
I envy you.
GAME CLEARED CONGRATULATIONS
I wouldn't be surprised…
if we die soon.
But…
it's a miracle we've made it this far anyway.
Since we have made it this far,
no matter what happens, let's fight…
to the very end.
Right.
I'll make it back, I swear.
For my future self.
