Synopsis

The fourth film and the finale of the anime, picking up right after the second TV season, Rascal Does Not Dream of Santa Claus. On April 1, Mai reveals that she is the anonymous internet singer Touko Kirishima, exactly as Sakuta dreamed on Christmas Eve, and impossible events start piling up. When a message arrives from a version of himself in another reality telling him to stop Touko Kirishima before reality is rewritten, Sakuta sets out to put the world back the way it was. It adapts light novel volumes 14 and 15, the last two in the series.
