CANAAN Episode 10

Summary:
When group arrives at the place know as Factory, Maria and Yunyun stay
with the car while everyone else goes inside. Canaan’s synesthesia
abilities have returned, and using them, she’s able to find a room full
of zombie-like Unblooms. Hakko gets so mortified at the sight of them
that she runs recklessly off on her own, and Santana attempts to chase
after her. Santana still remembers how Alphard had let him have Hakko
some time ago, but back then, Liang Qi had made it clear that because
of Hakko’s voice, he’d never be able to hear her words of love. Hakko
meanwhile runs into a room with a monitor, and Liang Qi uses it to
communicate with her. Liang Qi tries to turn her against Canaan by
claiming that this place was created in order to make another Canaan
since it was the Ua Virus that had made her synesthesia more powerful.
Hakko refuses to fall for this though and tries to use her voice
against Liang Qi, but Liang Qi knows that Hakko’s voice effects
people’s brains and has had her on mute through the monitor.

In response, Liang Qi shows Hakko live video of Santana in danger, so
Hakko decides to physically go to the chapel room where Liang Qi is.
She’s determined to protect Santana, and when she arrives, she
immediately starts using her voice against the person she thinks is
Liang Qi. She doesn’t realize until it’s too late that Liang Qi is long
gone and that the person in the chair is actually a bound and gagged
Santana. From the nearby monitor, Liang Qi taunts Hakko about being
responsible for Santana’s death, and after destroying the monitor,
Hakko cries until Santana weakly calls out to her. He knows that he’s
dying, and what he really wants to hear Hakko say to him is that she
loves him. At his request, she says it until he dies, and afterward,
Hakko cries so loud that the entire facility is affected. What she
doesn’t realize is that Liang Qi has been using her as a tool to get at
Canaan. Liang Qi’s plan involves starting an active noise control
machine that cancels out all sound. With this, the only person affected
by Hakko’s voice will be Canaan because of her ability to convert
certain sense into other senses.

By this point, Canaan and Minoru have been saved by the sudden arrival
of Natsume who blew a hole through the wall, letting in sunlight to
stop the Unblooms and allowing Canaan and Minoru to escape. Once the
active noise control machine is started, Canaan is unable to do
anything but clutch her head in pain as Hakko comes towards her,
repeating her words of love and dragging Santana’s body. Luckily,
Canaan has Minoru with her, and Minoru remembers how Santana had wanted
him to wake Hakko from what he called the dream. Minoru thus walks
towards Hakko, even after she shoots him in the arm, and he hugs her.
Meanwhile, Maria and Yunyun have decided to come into the facility to
look for Canaan, and they wander into an ice-covered underground area
where flowers are growing. While picking a flower, Maria realizes that
there’s a person with red eyes frozen under the ice, but before the two
can do anything about it, Natsume shows up and points her gun at them.
