GAME OVER
1vs1
I was never brave
I'm always the coward
Always the burden
My comrades fight
All I can do is
be the support
I'm not a sniper
I'm no close combat master
I'm nothing in between.
This is just a game,
Why does it feel so real?
Every time
I log on
Every time
I'm a burden
Every time
I get killed
Every time, I'm
Running Blind
2vs2
I don't have enough EXP
I can't get better weapons
I always have to
rely on others
"You're important to the team"
Yeah, right.
I'm not a fighter
I'm not a tactician
I'm nothing in between.
This is more than a game,
No wonder it does feel so real
Every time
I start up
Every time
I'm a burden
Every time
My HP drops to 0
Every time, I'm
Running Scared
Every time
I log on
Every time
I'm a burden
Every time
I get killed
Every time, I'm

GAME OVER

勇敢なことはなかった
いつも臆病者だ
常に負担だ
仲間は戦う
できることすべては
支持体である
狙撃ありませんよ
接近戦のマスターじゃない
間に何もないだ。
これはただのゲームだが、
なぜとても本当の感じでしょうか？

十分にEXPを持っていない
より良い武器を得ることができない
いつも他人に
頼る必要が
「君はチームにとって重要だ」って
嘘だよ。
戦闘機ありませんよ
戦術家じゃない
間に何もないだ。
これはゲーム以上のものだよ、
不思議ではないとても本当の感じでしょう

MV Sypnosis[]
MV Sypnosis
The pair walks over to their beds, and pulls a helmet covering their eyes. Their closed eyes are shown on the split screen, and then the screen merges into a full screen and zooms out. The pair are shown, now dressed in futuristic clothing, and their general appearance is also slightly altered.
The moment they open their eyes, the music starts.
The screen cuts to the pair of them fighting alongside 14 other girls using guns. The entirety of Team K's username's are revealed through several shots. An unknown girl, Miyagi, bearing the username Miyaya stumbles into the battle field, and by using a diversion tactic, Miya, Ghost, and the rest of Team K help the girl.
The screen cuts to a cross haired image, aiming at Miyagi's (Miyaya's) head, and then to the green eye of a sniper through an aim. It cuts to the lower part of the sniper's head. The sniper frowns slightly. Seven bangs are heard.
The screen cuts back to Team K and Miyagi (Miyaya). The seven bangs alert them, but they are revealed to be too late, as Yukari (Yuuka), Tomorin (Itarin), Hotaru (Firefly), Natsuki (Natsu), Ran (Ran), Tomoko (Tomo) and Ririka (Ririn) are all lying on the ground. Their HP guages are empty, and the words "Dead" hover over their bodies. Their bodies burst into a shower of sparks.
The screen cuts seven times in rapid succession, each time revealing a new bedroom with one of the killed girls on the beds. They are all wearing the same kind of helmet, and there is a large, red splotch on their chests.
The screen cuts to Team K and Miyagi (Miyaya) as they flee the scene. Akari (Cookie) is shown opening up her friend list, and the seven players who were killed's username show up with a "Disconnected" beside them.
The screen then cuts to Team K and Miyagi (Miyaya) in a rented room in a town. Miyagi (Miyaya) is sharing loot she has with Team K as a thank you. Two more bangs, and Aoi (BlueStar) and Rei (River) are hit by a sniper's shot. Akari (Cookie) once again opens up her friend menu, and the pair's usernames are displayed with a "Disconnected" beside them.
The screen cuts twice. Two more girls are revealed in helmets and red on their chests.
The screen cuts back to Team K and Miyagi (Miyaya). Diana (Wing) is in the foreground, and she points out the window with bullet holes in it. Another bang. Diana (Wing) bursts into a shower of sparks. Seeing this, Hibiki (Resonance) runs out of the building and out to the square towards the clock tower. Another bang sounds, and this time, Hibiki (Resonance) is killed.
The screen cuts twice. Two more girls are revealed in helmets and red on their chests.
There is an explosion, and the entire wall of the clock tower is blown off. The remaining Team K members and Miyagi (Miyaya) duck behind various objects. The sniper, Minami (AiWoShinjinai) is revealed, standing in the remains of the clock tower. Some words are exchanged, with Minami (AiWoShinjinai) acting like what she's doing is her favourite past time. Her sniper rifle change into a normal rifle as she hits an odd-looking menu to her right. Team K and Miyagi (Miyaya) split up, and Minami (AiWoShinjinai) starts to follow Akari (Cookie), Honoka (Miya) and Chiyo (Ghost). The screen cuts to Sayaka (Gorilla), Yui (Memory) and Miyagi (Miyaya). Miyagi (Miyaya) suddenly stops, apologizes, and shoots the other pair using a gun she got from the same kind of odd-looking menu.
The screen cuts twice. Two more girls are revealed in helmets and red on their chests.
The screen cuts back to Akari (Cookie), Honoka (Miya) and Chiyo (Ghost). They are running, but stop when they hear the two bangs. Akari (Cookie) opens up her friend menu, and Sayaka's (Gorilla's) and Yui's (Memory's) username appear with "Disconnected" beside them.
The music disappears, and Minami's (AiWoShinjinai's) giggles take it's place. Minami (AiWoShinjinai) appears out of a alley infront of them. Akari (Cookie) screams "You bastard!" and runs toward the bluehaired girl. Minami (AiWoShinjinai) fires her rifle several times, but Akari (Cookie) manages to dodge all of them except one. A large, glowing hole appears in her shoulder, and she simply continues forward. A short hand to hand fight breaks out between the pair, eventually ending with Akari (Cookie) managing to kick the rifle out of Minami's (AiWoShinjinai's) hands, and snatching it up. With an enraged face she fires the rifle into Minami's (AiWoShinjinai's) chest.
Everything is silent, before Chiyo (Ghost) rises up, and starts to ask "Are you alrigh-..." but is cut off by another bang. Akari (Cookie) sways backwards and explodes in a shower of sparks. As she disappears, Miyagi (Miyaya) is revealed behind her, appearing furious.
The screen cuts once. This time, it's to another bedroom, with a girl wearing a helmet lying on her bed. There are two splotches of red on her chest; One on her chest, one, larger, on her shoulder.
The screen cuts back to Chiyo (Ghost), who, in panic, picks up the gun Akari dropped, and starts to run away. Miyagi (Miyaya) instantly runs after her. As she runs, Chiyo opens up a menu, hits a button, and then Honoka's (Miya's) username. The gun in her hands disappear.
Chiyo accidentally runs into a dead end, and Miyagi (Miyaya) is blocking the opening back to the street. Miyagi (Miyaya) rises the gun. Chiyo (Ghost) closes her eyes.
The screen turns black for several seconds, and a bang is heard. Chiyo (Ghost) slowly opens her eyes, and the music fades back in. The screen cuts to Miyagi's (Miyaya's) surprised face, before zooming out as she too explodes into sparks. Honoka (Miya) is revealed to be holding the gun Chiyo (Ghost) had picked up with shaking hands. Her eyes are squeezed shut. The moment Miyagi (Miyaya) disappears, she drops the gun. It bursts into sparks too, and she falls to her knees.
The screen fades to black again, and a new set of white words appear on the screen: ”This is real…” (「これは本当だ。。。」 ”kore wa hontou da…”)
The MV ends.
