“I’m going somewhere far away.” He said.
But the things he truly wanted to tell Tenma-chan remain untold, suppressed and forsaken in vain.
This video is a special tribute I made for Ouji-kun and Tenma-chan.
Enjoy!! ^_^

Their full monologues from the manga:
Karasuma Ooji (in the hospital, in his delusional state):
“My body, my senses…they’re so light. Everything feels so faint but…the weight of living is all that I feel. I can feel it so clearly.
Heavy, heavy…Living is so heavy.
I’m not angry. I feel so alone. But there was nothing I could do. “I’ll struggle”. I thought. I decided to have every bit of myself struggle forward without any regrets.
One year…I asked God…I asked God to let me be free for just one year. Somehow…someway, I wanted to live my life without anymore regrets.
One year…I decided that after that year I would lose all those thoughts. But I promised myself one thing…
I promised that I wouldn’t fall in love with you. But I couldn’t keep that promise. It’s what I had decided but I couldn’t do it.
Tsukamoto-san, I love you. I love you more than anything else in the whole world.
I love your smile. It brings me the most happiness. I love the way you talk. It echoes from the bottom of my heart. I love the way you cry. It makes me wanna protect you that much more. I love the way you sulk. I makes me notice my mistakes. There is no one that I’m more connected to in this whole world. No one.
You’re careless but with all that together, I love you. You’re pure. The one whose touch I wanna feel the most. Even if you know I’m hurt. Even if you’re scared, don’t hide from me. Please believe in me through it all.
I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you.
Let me feel your touch. Save me.”
Tsukamoto Tenma (she didn’t make it on time):
“Karasuma-kun?
Karasuma-kun…It’s me. You know…Tsukamoto Tenma?
You really don’t remember?
What about our classmates? Harima-kun…What about Miko-chan? Hanai-kun? And Eri-chan…Akira-chan?
You don’t remember…all those memories with everyone?
The bus trip we took? Playing hockey in the pool? Getting fired up for the athletic festival? What about when we snuck into school and play that survival game? How about when you looked cool playing guitar during the culture festival? The time you played with the band on the night of the festival…everyone danced…?
When we took a stroll around Kyoto to see the sights… When we went looking for souvenirs together? When we visited a new year’s shrine? When we cam from school together? The time you loaned me your kappa? The time we ate rice balls together?
That time you carried me when I fainted…?
The time we walked alone together on the shoreline?…When I fell over and you reached out your hand to me?
…My confession to you…You don’t remember?”
