Episode 12

Hello, Goodbye / Tomorrow Never Knows (クロスロード・ブルース / トゥモロー・ネバー・ノウズ, Harō Guddobai / Tumorō Nebā Nouzu) is the twelfth episode of LISTENERS. The ending theme is by Jin sung by µ (Rie Takahashi).

Synopsis
The Earless seem unstoppable, bent on destroying the world that has treated them so cruelly. Echo, with his newfound power as a Player, challenges the King of the Earless with his trusty AC30.

Summary
Echo faces Listeners. Some recognize him, but don't believe AC30 has a chance given how powerful Listeners is. Echo tries to tell Mu that she isn't Jimi's younger sister or a monster who tries to destroy the world, but its herself, no matter what others call her. Listeners doesn't want to listen to him and shoots a beam, cutting one of AC30's arms. Listeners wonders who are they, and not just beings that exist. They wanted to know about themselves and why people fear them. They wanted to know about the thing humans play, but as no one will try to know more about them, they no longer care. Listeners then prepares for a large scale attack and releases multiple beams at every direction.

Echo uses Top Boost, releasing an attack, that causes all Earless to stop and start humming. Tommy's spirit appears in front of Sally and explains the clashing of Echo and Listeners souls is moving the hearts of the Earless. He continues to explain that the Humans, Earless and the Players were the same, but by irresponsibly jumping to conclusions and labeling them they kept themselves separated from one another. But Echo and Listeners will teach them. With Mu's Soul Core, Echo creates multiple jacks and takes parts from the ground, creating more speakers and overpowers Listeners. Listeners tells him they are nobody and are different from each other. Echo agrees, but because of that they try to understand and meet. Both AC30 and Listeners Equipment break and Mu starts falling in a hole. Echo reaches for her and tells her she is Mu and Mu's Core Part starts to shiny. Denka believes that Jimi's second coming was Echo, but Rod corrects him that Echo just expressed what is in his heart and the world chose to be moved by it.

Some time later, Earless in human form walk freely with humans. Kevin had become King of Londinium with Bilin being the Chairwoman of the Restoration Committee. Denka had taken some immigrants per Kevin's request. He reactivates Mesa. In Gnome, the Noise Sisters had changed forms, but are still looking for a new element of Dada. They get approached for autographs and starts to get excited. Kim introduces new students, Ritchie and Lyde, who can't believe people though they were dead and that surprises Nir.

An Earless boy comes in Oasis, asking Swell if Echo used to live there and she confirms. The boy explains that on that day, their eyes met and he heard an echoing in his head and always wanted to know what it was. A girl then approaches him and decides to tell him.

Elsewhere, Mu and Echo are together and Mu comments Echo looked so cool when he called her name that time, but Echo has no memories of that moment. He also states that he isn't a Player anymore and his jack is also gone. He pulls his pants to show it and Mu blushes and calls him an idiot.
