Chapter 122

Bound Hearts (1) (こころのむすびめ①, Kokoro no Musubime) is the first part of the 122nd chapter of the To Your Eternity manga.

Summary
After meeting Fushi's companions at the airport, they drive back to the Aoki family's house. As they are getting closer to the house, Yuki starts to talk to his smartphone and films the arrival of the group.

Just as he turns the phone's camera towards the house, Oniguma appears right behind it and whacks off the roof of the house. As Yuki and his family scream out in shock, Fushi informs them that Oniguma is also one of his companions. He promptly rebuilds the house and even makes it a bit bigger than before.

As Fushi's companions settle in and take care of the rubble left from the old house, Yuki films them and gives a little bit of info about each of them.

Later, at dinner, Yuki asks the group about their future plans. There is a bit of an awkward silence until Messar says that they would decide on it the next day. Yuki then asks if they're going to fight an evil organization or save people, to which Tonari responds that they would if they got the chance.

Tonari then asks Yuki what he had been muttering into his smartphone all day. He reveals that he's been talking to his parents the entire time. Everyone gathers around Yuki as Yuki's parents introduce themselves on video call. They explain that they're away for work excavating the Katsuyama ruins. Tonari comments that they seem very nice.

Fushi is amazed that, even though they are far away, with the smartphone it seems like they are right there. Yuki responds that, even when they are apart, the smartphone helps them "keep their hearts together." He compares it to how Fushi and his companions stayed "in touch" all this time. Yuki then cries out with excitement that they all came here because their "hearts are one," at which point Fushi catches on and shares his enthusiasm. March, Aiko, and Yuki's parents join in and they all scream out "yeah!," while Messar plugs his ears and asks Kazumitsu to show him to his room.
