VIDEO: Minagoroshi-hen | TIP 3: The Two of Us

BGM: Feel



She could clearly see all of us, her father, her mother, and me.

She had no idea that I was invisible to anyone else but her.

My appearance is a little different from human beings.

I may otherwise look like a person, but I can't hide my horns.

So it's obvious that I'm not human.

I'd hoped that because Rika has seen me since she was a baby, she wouldn't be bothered by my ugly horns at all.



Just as chicks believe whatever they see first is their parent, Rika accepted me as part of her family as a matter of course.

Even though I have these horns.

Rika and I have been close ever since the day she accepted me as her family member.

I became closer to her than her parents. I couldn't even remember the last time I was able to communicate with someone.

We spent all day together.



Since her mother so strongly denied me, Rika and her mother became distant.

Rika didn't learn certain things that many children learn from their mothers.

That's why I taught her instead.

......It's kind of ironic how that made her mother resent Rika even more.

Rika used to fight with her mother a lot about how she talked.

I guess she picked up some bad habits from me.

Their speech mannerisms are somewhat similar, but the most noticeable similarity between the two is that they both use boku as the preferred personal pronoun, which is slightly unusual considering that they’re both young girls. There’s even a TV Tropes page about it.

Besides the fact that she didn't get along with her mother, Rika was a pretty normal girl.

She was just like Satoko.

She loved running around in the woods, and doing mischievous things.



Rika's life was taken.

All we want is a happy life for Rika.

...My power only allows us to search for the path leading to that.

It's awful to repeat the same tragedy over and over again.

...Although it's devastating...... we can still find happiness within this endless world.



But I'm secretly enjoying the fact that I get to spend more time with her than what normal people can enjoy.

It's not just Rika.

They may not see or hear me, but being with Satoko, Mion, Rena, and Keiichi is also very fun.
