- Toru Watanabe: Nothing can heal the loss of a beloved. No truth, no sincerity, no strength, no kindness can heal that sorrow. All we can do is live through the sorrow and learn something from it. But whatever we learn will be of no help in facing the next sorrow that comes along.
- Storm Trooper: Mind if I give you a piece of advice?
- Toru Watanabe: Sure.
- Storm Trooper: Don't feel sorry for yourself. Only degenerates feel sorry for themselves.
- Toru Watanabe: Hey, Kizuki. Unlike you, I've chosen to live. And to live the best way I can. I'm sure it was hard for you. But it's hard for me too. Because you killed yourself, leaving Naoko behind. But I will never abandon her. The reason is, I love her. I'm going to grow stronger. I'm going to grow up.
- Toru Watanabe: With each passing season, I grow father away from the dead. Kizuki remains 17. Naoko remains 21. For eternity.
- Naoko: Please remember me forever. Please always remember that I existed and was here by your side. Will you promise?
- Toru Watanabe: I promise I'll always remember.
