→unfinished→

**→unfinished→** is the first ending theme of Accel World performed by Kotoko. The lyrics were written by Kotoko, and the music was composed by Satoshi Yaginuma of FripSide. It began in Episode 02 and ended in episode Episode 13. It was replaced by Unite.

The music video features scenes switching frequently from the real world to a virtual word, in reflection of the anime's setting. Imagery of butterflies frequently appear, echoing with the avatar used by Kuroyukihime.

Motto hayaku… “Kimi no basho” e…

Inoru koe ga kodama shi tsuzukeru

Itami korae susumu imi wo sagasu ima

Kasoku shiteku

We are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray tossed by various fortune

Wake up your brain! Flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation

“Akirame” ga kureta anraku chintai no sekai

Itsu kara datta darou? Ware no koe mo wasure teta

Hiza wo tsuku boku ni kimi ga sashi dasu keshiki

Monokuro no asa ga fui ni kagayaki hajimeta

-Kawa razu ni ite to negau koto-

-Kawari yuku toki ni ikiru bokura-

Hontou no koe wo… ii enu yume wo…

Kimi to tsunagatta sora e hibi kasete!

Motto tsuyoku… kono ryoute de namida subete furi harae tara

“Kondo koso wa…” tsubuyaku ima to

Kizu sae mo muda ni shi nai

Itsuka kimi ga shimesu basho e

Usui hane ga yakare you tomo

Nou no oku de kuchi wo hiraku

“Shinjitsu” e kasoku shiteku

We are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray tossed by various fortune

Wake up your brain! Flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation

Nani wo mite iru no? Kokuu misueru hitomi

Rin to shita kata ga wazuka furueta ki ga shita

Chippoke de kie sou dakedo

Mamori tai mono tashika ni arun da

Kyozou no machi to fuantei na nichijou no naka

Shinji rareru mono wa tada hitotsu!

Motto fukaku kanji sasete ugoki dashita kokoro to kokoro

Jibun no me de… soshite, furete

Kankaku wo te ni ire tai

Nani wo motome nani wo yurushi

Ikutsu kakae susumeba ii no?

Mezame kake no kanousei wo taguri yose kasoku shiteku

Boku no tame ni naite kureta sono hitomi wo warawase takute

Motto chikaku… motto fukaku… netsu wo abi shinka shiteku

Motto tsuyoku… kono ryoute de namida subete furi harae tara

“Kondo koso wa…” tsubuyaku ima to

Kizu sae mo muda ni shi nai

Motto hayaku… kimi no moto e tatoe hane ga chigire you tomo

Yugamu sekai hashiri nukete kankaku no sono mukou e

“Shinjitsu” to kasoku shiteku

We are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray… tossed by various fortune

Wake up your brain! Flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation

We are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray… tossed by various fortune

Wake up your brain! Flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation

もっと早く… 「君の場所」へ…

祈る声が木霊し続ける

痛み堪え進む意味を 探す現実(いま)

加速してく

we are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray… tossed by various fortune

wake up your brain! flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation

「諦め」がくれた安楽 沈滞の世界

いつからだっただろう? 我の声も忘れてた

膝をつく僕に 君が差し出す景色

モノクロの朝が ふいに輝き始めた

-変わらずにいてと願うこと-

-変わりゆく時に生きる僕ら-

本当の声を… 言い得ぬ夢を…

君と繋がった空へ 響かせて!

もっと強く… この両手で 涙全て振り払えたら

「今度こそは…」つぶやく今と

傷さえも無駄にしない

いつか君が 示す場所へ

薄い羽が焼かれようとも

脳の奥で口を開く

「真実」へ 加速してく

we are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray… tossed by various fortune

wake up your brain! flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation

何を見ているの? 虚空 見据える瞳

凛とした肩がわずか震えた気がした

ちっぽけで消えそうだけど

守りたいモノ 確かにあるんだ

虚像の街と 不安定な日常の中

信じられる物は ただ一つ!

もっと深く 感じさせて 動き出した心と心

自分の目で… そして、触れて

感覚を手に入れたい

何を求め 何を許し

いくつ抱え 進めば良いの?

目覚めかけの可能性を たぐり寄せ 加速してく

僕のために泣いてくれた その瞳を笑わせたくて

もっと近く… もっと深く… 熱を帯び 進化してく

もっと強く… この両手で 涙全て振り払えたら

「今度こそは…」 つぶやく今と

傷さえも無駄にしない

もっと早く… 君のもとへ たとえ羽が千切れようとも

歪む世界 走り抜けて 感覚のその向うへ

「真実」と 加速してく

we are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray… tossed by various fortune

wake up your brain! flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation

we are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray… tossed by various fortune

wake up your brain! flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation

Faster… To “your place”…

As I utter my wish, my voice creates continuous echoes

Bearing the pain, I’m now looking for a reason to advance

I’m accelerating

We are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray tossed by various fortune

Wake up your brain! Flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation

“Giving up” gave comfort to this stagnant world

When did it all start? I even forgot my own voice

I was on my knees, but you showed me the beautiful view

And my monochrome morning suddenly started to shine

-I wish for you to never change-

-Yet we live in an ever-changing world-

Our real voices… A dream that can’t be put into words…

Let them resound in the sky that connects you and me!

Stronger… With these hands, if I can wipe off all my tears

“This time I will…” I whispered

Right now, even my scars will not go to waste

Someday, I’ll go to the place that you pointed to

Even if my thin feathers will be burned up

Deep inside my brain, I’ll open my mouth and say

To “the truth,” I’m accelerating

We are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray tossed by various fortune

Wake up your brain! Flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation

What are you looking at? Your eyes are staring into space

Your imposing shoulders seemed to have shivered slightly

It’s tiny and almost vanishing

But the thing that I want to protect is certainly there

In a virtually constructed street, with a turbulent daily life

There’s only one thing that I can trust!

These hearts have started moving, let me feel them more deeply

With my own eyes… Next, I’ll touch them

I want to get hold of that sensation

What should I wish for, what should I forgive

How many things should I carry with me as I go on?

Drawing in the possibility of waking up, I’m accelerating

Those eyes cried for me, now I want to make them smile

Closer… Deeper… Gaining momentum, I’m evolving

Stronger… With these hands, if I can wipe off all my tears

“This time I will…” I whispered

Right now, even my scars will not go to waste

Faster… To where you are, even if my feathers will be torn off

Run to the end of this distorted world, beyond my senses

Together with “the truth,” I’m accelerating

We are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray… tossed by various fortune

Wake up your brain! Flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation

We are tossed by the waves of pain and tears

I’m tossed into the fray… tossed by various fortune

Wake up your brain! Flashed in the sky

It’s a burst of sensation
