Ep. 6: Akane erfährt die Wahrheit über den lila LKW und ihren vermissten Freund Satoru

6

A young woman named Akane has just moved into a new neighborhood, and must manage the garbage pickup on the curb for the week. As soon as the garbage truck departs, a young man begins dropping off items. Akane tries to correct him, but the young man mentions a purple truck that visits on the 5th Wednesday of each month; you must drop off your most important possessions before the truck arrives, or else they will be taken away forever later. Suddenly, a crowd appears, and the young man bids her to hurry. She is passed on the street by a purple truck, so she runs home to check her armoire and finds nothing missing. She dismisses the warning, until she sees the garbage crew forcibly confiscating an item from a woman at the curb. She realizes she hasn't heard from her boyfriend Satoru since their recent argument. She tries many times to call him, but when she finally gets through, the call is choppy. Satoru is revealed to be inside a garbage truck amidst a pile of junk and several other people, demanding an explanation and help; Akane can only laugh in despair as she realizes that Satoru was her most important thing.
