Blocked Call

Blocked Call (着信拒否, Chakushin Kyohi) is the ninth episode of the Future Diary anime.

Summary
Karyuudo Tsukishima reveals himself to his daughter, Hinata Hino, as the one responsible for the recent murders. He wants to take Deus Ex Machina's place to bring his family back together, and Hinata cooperates with his efforts. Because Aru Akise has been spying on him, Tsukishima suspects he is a diary user and Hinata takes it upon herself to eliminate the boy.

A week later, Hinata has Akise cornered. He proposes a simple game in exchange for his diary, tossing a coin and asking Hinata to guess which hand caught it. Akise performs well, and Hinata releases Yukiteru Amano.

Yuno Gasai notices Akise's diary did not buzz with static when the future changed, and tackles him. Looking at his empty cellphone notes, the group realizes he is not, in fact, a diary user, and has been winning the games on sheer luck. Hinata agrees to one final game in exchange for Yukiteru's diary, and First requests that they stay friends if Akise wins.

Akise guesses Hinata's hands correctly while Yukiteru is distracted by Yuno, after which the latter knocks the former unconscious. This is so Akise can take advantage of the Indiscriminate Diary's weakness: that Yukiteru's perceptions alter its entries. Mao Nonosaka, determined to help Hinata off the competition, draws her knife but takes Yuno's stab for Hinata.

First, Second, Akise and Kosaka Ouji leave the observatory, and Hinata sets her dogs on them again. Yukiteru heads back, eager to preserve his friendship with Hinata. Hinata herself feels lonely, recounting her father's reluctance to spend time with her in her youth.The teenagers all show up back at the observatory, and Yuno threatens to kill Hinata and anyone who would come between her and her love, romantically or otherwise.

Yuki calms her down by introducing her as his girlfriend, and Hinata expresses confusion at his kindness when she set her canines on them. Her father communicates with her through a speaker on one of the dogs, apologizing for being a bad example to her, warning her that the kind should not be trusted. After implying that Keigo Kurusu is in the room with him, a gunshot rings out and the Breeder Diary reports its owner's Dead End.
