“The story where one averts their eyes”
—Author's Comment
"Toumei Answer" is an original song by Jin.
It talks of a boy named Shintaro and his best friend Ayano. Shintaro was an antisocial and negative person, but Ayano became his friend so she could make him see the world positively, even though she had way lower grades than him. She would make cranes out of his test papers. One day, Shintaro found her crying, and left her alone. The next day it was revealed she committed suicide. This song talks of the suicide from Shintaro's point of view, and how he's so distraught he becomes a NEET and locks himself in his room.
It is an album exclusive song, featured on the albums Mekakucity Days (メカクシティデイズ) and Mekakucity Actors (メカクシティアクターズ). The official cover of this song is on the album Mekakucity M's.

Lyrics
| Japanese (日本語歌詞) | Romaji (ローマ字) |
|---|---|
| 目まぐるしくもない | Me magurushiku mo nai |
| そんな毎日を | Sonna mainichi wo |
| 漂うように何度も席に座って | Tadayou you ni nando mo seki ni suwatte |
| 「さぁ、どうかな？君は」 | "Saa, dou kana? Kimi wa" |
| また試すように | Mata tamesu you ni |
| 数字の無い教科書が何かをいった | Suuji no nai kyoukasho ga nanika wo itta |
| 出来栄えならそれは | Dekibae nara sore wa |
| まぁ、良いほうだろう | Maa, ii hou darou |
| 三桁満点の再生紙を貰って | Sanketa manten no saiseishi wo moratte |
| 隣の席では | Tonari no seki de wa |
| 照れ笑いながら | Tere warai nagara |
| 桁の低い点数の君が席に着いた | Keta no hikui tensuu no kimi ga seki ni tsuita |
| 窓の外、求めないのは | Mado no soto, motome nai no wa |
| 答がすぐ浮かんでしまうから | Kotae ga sugu ukande shimau kara |
| 「それじゃほら、つまらないよ」と | "Sore ja hora, tsumaranai yo" to |
| 君はいつも楽しそうだ | Kimi wa itsumo tanoshisou da |
| これ以上消えたい心に触れないで | Kore ijou kietai kokoro ni furenaide |
| 今日も地球なんて何処にも見えないよ | Kyou mo chikyuu nante doko ni mo mienai yo |
| 鳴り出したアラームに | Nari dashita ALARM ni |
| 一人 「冷たい奴だな」と語りかけてる | Hitori "tsumetai yatsu da na" to katari kaketeru |
| いまさら不思議そうに答を合わせても | Imasara fushigi sou ni kotae wo awasete mo |
| 何でか全て解りきってしまうから | Nande ka subete wakarikitte shimau kara |
| 「このまま死んだって誰かが | kawari ni naru kara" to |
| 呟くことも馬鹿らしいよ | Tsubuyaku koto mo baka rashii yo |
| 漂うような日々は繰り返すけど | Tadayou you na hibi wa kurikaesu kedo |
| 君が休むなんて違和感あって | Kimi ga yasumu nante iwakan ga atte |
| まぁ、どうあれ明日返るテストも | Maa, dou are ashita kaeru tesuto mo |
| 代わり映えしない結果なんだろうな | Kawari wae shinai kekka nandarou na |
| 目まぐるしくもない | Me magurushiku mo nai |
| そんな毎日は | Sonna mainichi wa |
| 何処かがもう | Doko ka ga mou |
| 狂ってしまったかもしれない | Kurutte shimatta kamoshirenai |
| 君の髪の色 | Kimi no kami no iro |
| 君の笑顔を | Kimi no egao wo |
| 誰かがもう覚えていないかもしれない | Dareka ga mou oboeteinai kamoshirenai |
| 「窓の中空いた席は | "Mado no naka aita seki wa |
| そこからどう映っていますか」と | Soko kara dou utsutte imasuka" to |
| 君の事知ったように | Kimi no koto shitta you ni |
| 何一つわかっていなくて | Nani hitotsu wakatte inakute |
| 少しでもそれを解っていられたなら | Sukoshi demo sore wo wakaitte iraretanara |
| ずっと続いてくれたような日々は | Zutto tsudzuiteite kureta you na hibi wa |
| 鳴り出したアラームをとめる度に | Nari dashita ALARM wo tomeru tabi ni |
| ないものだと、気付かされてる | Nai mono dato kidzuka sareteru |
| 教室で消えたい心を傷つけて | Kyoushitsu de kietai kokoro wo kizutsukete |
| 何度も隠し通して笑っていた | Nando mo kakushi toushi te waratteita |
| ここから飛び降りていなくなった君の笑顔を | Koko kara tobiorite inakunatta kimi no egao wo |
| 僕は明日も忘れないよ | Boku wa ashita mo wasurenai yo |
