Within the first trial, Subaru relives his life as a shut-in with his parents. His father Kenichi remains cheerful and attentive, but notices that Subaru is avoiding school and hiding behind jokes. During a long walk, Subaru remembers how childhood praise for being Kenichi’s son became a burden. As his achievements stopped standing out, he tried increasingly reckless behavior to preserve attention, lost his friends, and eventually withdrew from society rather than admit he felt ordinary. Subaru finally tells his father that he wanted his parents to give up on him, while also confessing that people in another world now accept him despite his failures. Kenichi responds without judgment and assures him that a parent’s love is not a debt the child must repay. The next morning, Subaru dresses for school and shares breakfast with his mother Naoko. Her small habits and unconditional concern make him realize the trial is an illusion and that he may never apologize to his real parents. He leaves home after promising to return, then reaches an empty classroom. Echidna waits there, confirming that confronting his parents and accepting their love was the past he needed to overcome.
