    You strongly attract things you believe in
[00:19] ---
    I'll protect even your ice-cold gaze
[00:26] ---
    My wish descends upon a
    whirlwind of scarlet

[00:48] ---
    The sky doesn't reflect those little things
[00:51] ---
    When I ran alone, I wasn't scared
[00:54] ---
    If I betray tomorrow here
[00:56] ---
    I won't be able to go anywhere anymore
[01:00] ---
    I who have sinned, am wandering
    about in a city seeking light

[01:08] ---
    You strongly attract things you believe in
[01:14] ---
    I'll protect even your ice-cold gaze
[01:20] ---
    The thought I'm holding
    in my hands is "brilliance"

[01:27] ---
    Until this never-ending
    tune makes it to the truth

[01:34] ---
    I'll shoot through with
    the febricula that is me

[01:44] ---
    Ah-choo!
[01:46] ---
    Dammit!
[02:24] ---
    "Extra Concentrated Antifebrile"
[02:26] ---
    "Episode 7: Caged Bird"
[02:35] ---
    Kin!
[02:36] ---
    Hm?
[02:40] ---
    How's your cold? What about your fever?
[02:42] ---
    Do you have a headache?s
[02:43] ---
    N-No, I'm completely over it.
[02:47] ---
    Good...
[02:50] ---
    That's good...
[02:52] ---
    Don't cry over something like this.
[02:55] ---
    Okay!
[02:57] ---
    Oh, yeah. Thanks for getting this.
[03:00] ---
    What?
[03:01] ---
    I'm glad you went to buy
    this antifebrile for me.
[03:03] ---
    It really helped.
[03:06] ---
    That's... ah...
[03:08] ---
    Shirayuki?
[03:10] ---
    What's the matter?
[03:11] ---
    No, nothing.
[03:30] ---
    My room got turned into a fortress.
    I caught cold because of them.

[03:32] ---
    And girls are walking
    around in those outfits...

[03:35] ---
    My safety zone is
    getting smaller and smaller.

[03:37] ---
    Kinji!
[03:38] ---
    Hm?
[03:45] ---
    Ouch!
[03:46] ---
    Seriously! You could at least
    get the sword-catching right for once!
[03:51] ---
    It is said that Durandal has
    a sword that can cut even steel.
[03:55] ---
    This training is particularly
    important right now because of that!
[03:59] ---
    You came all the way here just for that?
[04:02] ---
    I don't have that kind of time.
    I've got a job for you, Kinji.
[04:07] ---
    Check all the emails Shirayuki
    got on her cell after school today.
[04:11] ---
    Huh? What for?
[04:13] ---
    I heard that Durandal
    sends a threatening email
[04:15] ---
    to his target on their
    cell before he kidnaps them.
[04:19] ---
    Shirayuki might've received it, too.
[04:21] ---
    How could I do such a thing?
[04:23] ---
    There's no way she'd
    allow me to do that, right?
[04:25] ---
    And besides, she'd tell
    me about something like that.
[04:29] ---
    Hey! Why aren't you guarding her?!
[04:31] ---
    I'm having Reki watch her...
[04:43] ---
    though it's only part time.
[04:46] ---
    She said she's busy
    because she's representing
[04:49] ---
    Japan in the Adosiade sniping competition.
[04:51] ---
    Oh yeah...?
[04:53] ---
    Ow!
    Hey! Are you listening to me?!
[04:55] ---
    I am!
[04:57] ---
    Hey, if you're my partner,
    be considerate of my condition as well!
[05:02] ---
    That's...
[05:04] ---
    Let me have a break once in a while.
    I've just gotten over a cold.
[05:07] ---
    I was thrown into cold Tokyo Bay
    at night by a certain someone.
[05:11] ---
    I-I'm sorry. I thought
    I might've gone too far, so...
[05:16] ---
    Well, forget about my cold.
[05:18] ---
    I got over it thanks to the
    antifebrile Shirayuki gave me.
[05:22] ---
    What? Shirayuki?
[05:24] ---
    Yeah. I appreciate that she's really
    considerate about things like that.
[05:28] ---
    Ah...
[05:29] ---
    Hm? What's the matter?
[05:31] ---
    Nothing. If you got over
    it, then that's fine.
[05:34] ---
    What is it? If you wanna say something,
    just spit it out. It's not like you.
[05:38] ---
    What?! Why do you care?
    I won't say what I don't wanna say!
[05:42] ---
    Well, good for you that you
    had Shirayuki to take care of you!
[05:45] ---
    Why don't you get married to her?!
[05:47] ---
    Where did that come from?
[05:49] ---
    That's just natural, isn't it?
[05:51] ---
    She's your client and you're her bodyguard,
[05:53] ---
    a-a-and yet, you two are trying to take
    off each other's clothes. How disgusting!
[05:57] ---
    Like I told you, you got it all wrong!
[06:00] ---
    What am I wrong about?! What?!
[06:01] ---
    If you still insist on it,
    then show me the proof!
[06:03] ---
    Huh?
[06:04] ---
    If you wanna insist on something,
    you show proof!
[06:06] ---
    That's how Butei should be, right?
    Show proof! Proof, proof, proof!
[06:09] ---
    You're my slave, and you
    act like this?! You stupid Kinji!
[06:12] ---
    Stupid Kinji! Stupid Kinji! Stupid Kinji!
[06:15] ---
    If you're so insistent on proof,
    then you show me the proof, too!
[06:18] ---
    What?
[06:19] ---
    The proof that Durandal really exists!
[06:21] ---
    What?
[06:22] ---
    We've been sticking close to
    Shirayuki for the past few days,
[06:24] ---
    but nothing dangerous
    has happened, right?
[06:26] ---
    This enemy...
    Durandal doesn't exist!
[06:29] ---
    That's not true! He does exist!
[06:31] ---
    That's just you convincing
    yourself of what you want to be true!
[06:35] ---
    You want to save Ms. Kanae, your mother,
[06:38] ---
    so when you heard the name Durandal,
    you wished for that enemy to exist.
[06:43] ---
    And before you knew it,
    you convinced yourself that he exists.
[06:47] ---
    That's not true! Durandal does exist!
[06:49] ---
    My intuition tells me that
    he's closing in on her!
[06:52] ---
    Then show me some proof that I can accept!
[06:54] ---
    You too often assume things, then come
    to your own conclusions and act on them!
[07:05] ---
    So you, too, are like that...
[07:08] ---
    You say the same things as the others...
[07:10] ---
    I can tell that the enemy
    is closing in on Shirayuki.
[07:15] ---
    But I can't logically explain it,
    unlike my great-grandfather.
[07:21] ---
    That's why everyone
    calls me the defective Holmes
[07:24] ---
    and doesn't believe me.
    But I can tell it with my intuition!
[07:27] ---
    I'm telling you this so strongly and
    yet, why... why don't you believe me?!
[07:32] ---
    How could I believe the enemy
    is closing in when he doesn't exist?!
[07:35] ---
    --Until Adosiade ends, I'll
    guard Shirayuki by myself!
[07:38] ---
    --You... You... You...
[07:39] ---
    --You go somewhere and cool...
[07:41] ---
    You, you, you stupid idiot!
[07:47] ---
    Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!
    Stupid! Stupid! You stupid Kinji!
[07:50] ---
    Nobel Super Stupid Prize!
[07:54] ---
    "Student Council"
[07:54] ---
    What...?
[07:56] ---
    You're going to guard me alone, Kin?
[07:59] ---
    Really?
[08:00] ---
    Aria started all this...
[08:04] ---
    but a promise is a promise, so...
[08:06] ---
    You're going to protect me...
[08:09] ---
    A promise... I'm happy...
[08:11] ---
    Aren't you worried that you have an
    E-rank Butei like me as a bodyguard?
[08:16] ---
    I'm not worried at all. I trust you, Kin.
[08:21] ---
    Kin...
[08:22] ---
    Let me say this again. Please protect me...
[08:26] ---
    Okay?
[08:27] ---
    Y-Yeah...
[08:29] ---
    Come to think of it, aren't the other
    student council members coming today?
[08:32] ---
    The Adosiade starts tomorrow.
    Don't you guys have to prepare for it?
[08:35] ---
    Yeah, since the general preparation
    is finished, we decided to take a break.
[08:39] ---
    I think everyone is headed
    to the fireworks display by now.
[08:42] ---
    Fireworks display?
[08:44] ---
    They said that the display
    will be at Tokyo Luckyland.
[08:46] ---
    They've been saying
    that they want to go, so...
[08:49] ---
    What? And you, the president of the
    student council, are manning the fort?
[08:53] ---
    They invited me to go
    with them, but I can't go, so...
[08:57] ---
    You can't go? Why?
[08:59] ---
    I'm not allowed to go outside of the
    school and shrine without permission.
[09:04] ---
    Huh?
[09:05] ---
    Maidens of Hotogi Shrine
    are maidens of protection.
[09:07] ---
    We have to spend
    our entire lives in the shrine.
[09:12] ---
    Even if we are to go outside,
    we're allowed only the minimum.
[09:15] ---
    But you're here.
[09:17] ---
    Yeah. They strongly
    opposed my going to Butei High.
[09:22] ---
    So I shouldn't upset
    Hotogi Shrine any more than I have.
[09:26] ---
    Shirayuki...
[09:28] ---
    I'll finish this up quickly,
    so wait a bit, okay?
[09:32] ---
    Shirayuki...
[09:34] ---
    You're in the same situation
    as you were then.

[09:38] ---
    Are you still a caged bird?
[09:47] ---
    Shirayuki, we're gonna stop
    by somewhere first.
[09:49] ---
    What?
[09:51] ---
    Let's go see the fireworks display.
[09:53] ---
    What? I can't go outside the school.
[09:56] ---
    Enjoy yourself for a change.
    I'll come with you.
[10:00] ---
    What? Y-You'll go with me?
[10:03] ---
    Yeah. I'm your bodyguard, so...
[10:07] ---
    Okay!
[10:39] ---
    "Kasai Seaside Park"
[10:46] ---
    We're kinda quiet...
[10:48] ---
    But talking with a girl alone was
    something I've been avoiding, so...

[10:52] ---
    U-Uhm...
[10:53] ---
    Hm?
[10:55] ---
    We can hear the
    fireworks from here, huh?
[10:58] ---
    Yeah.
[10:59] ---
    I can't wait to see the fireworks.
[11:01] ---
    Yeah...
[11:04] ---
    Kin... Are you bored
    or something right now?
[11:08] ---
    No, not really.
[11:10] ---
    I don't talk to guys that much
[11:13] ---
    so I can't say anything interesting.
[11:15] ---
    I'm sorry.
[11:17] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[11:19] ---
    I'm that way, too.
[11:22] ---
    Okay!
[11:27] ---
    This is like a dream.
[11:34] ---
    Looks like the fireworks are over.
[11:37] ---
    I'm sorry. I should've checked the time.
[11:41] ---
    No, it's not your fault.
[11:43] ---
    Besides...
[11:49] ---
    whether there were fireworks or not,
[11:51] ---
    or whether it was on
    the beach at night or at home,
[11:53] ---
    if you're by my side,
    that's all that matters to me.
[11:58] ---
    Don't you feel cold, Shirayuki?
[12:00] ---
    What?
[12:01] ---
    You must feel cold.
    Wear this and wait here.
[12:04] ---
    Ah...
[12:22] ---
    "You've got new mail"
[12:22] ---
    "No Subject"
[12:22] ---
    "Received mail"
[12:44] ---
    Shirayuki!
[12:47] ---
    Shirayuki? What's wrong?
[12:49] ---
    Kin...
[12:51] ---
    Did something happen?
[12:52] ---
    N-No.
[12:53] ---
    Your jacket smells like you
[12:56] ---
    so I felt like you were by my side.
[12:58] ---
    Doesn't it smell like gunpowder?
[13:00] ---
    No, it smells good.
[13:02] ---
    You're a strange one. Anyway, look.
[13:17] ---
    Kin...
[13:18] ---
    Hm? What is it?
[13:21] ---
    The sparklers are pretty, aren't they?
[13:23] ---
    Yeah.
[13:26] ---
    Do you like fire?
[13:29] ---
    Hm? Things like this are fine,
[13:32] ---
    but humans are instinctively
    scared of big flames, right?
[13:37] ---
    Yeah, I guess.
[13:43] ---
    Ah...
[13:46] ---
    It's done...
[13:48] ---
    Yeah...
[13:56] ---
    I told your fortune with the shrine
    maiden's fortune cards the other day.
[14:00] ---
    Really? How did it turn out?
[14:02] ---
    It said that you'd be gone.
[14:04] ---
    I'd be gone?
[14:05] ---
    You'd be gone from where you are now.
[14:08] ---
    Does that mean I'll transfer schools?
[14:11] ---
    I thought that Aria might be
    taking you somewhere with her.
[14:16] ---
    No way.
[14:17] ---
    But Aria changed you.
[14:20] ---
    Ever since you've met Aria,
    you've become cheerful.
[14:27] ---
    Shirayuki...
[14:29] ---
    I'm sorry, Kin...
[14:31] ---
    I'm sorry.
[14:32] ---
    H-Hey, why are you apologizing?
[14:35] ---
    I've always wanted to return the favor...
[14:38] ---
    to you for always
    taking me to the outside world.
[14:42] ---
    But...
[14:45] ---
    Kin, please...
[14:46] ---
    Just for now... That's all
    I'm asking... Just for now...
[14:50] ---
    please pay attention only to me.
[14:54] ---
    Kiss me.
[15:16] ---
    Dude, that is so pretty!
[15:18] ---
    Let's do Dragon, next! Dragon, okay?!
[15:20] ---
    Yeah! Leave it to me!
[15:24] ---
    Er...
[15:25] ---
    I'm sorry.
[15:26] ---
    What?
[15:28] ---
    Let's head home now.
[15:37] ---
    "Adosiade"
    "Tokyo Butei High Meet"
[15:48] ---
    Looks like today is
    another day without incident.

[15:50] ---
    Come to think of it,
    this is an easy mission, isn't it?

[15:53] ---
    Tohyama!
[15:54] ---
    Hm?
[15:55] ---
    Muto was griping about when you'd
    come take over the reception desk work.
[16:01] ---
    It's already that time?
[16:05] ---
    With this many people around,
    she should be okay, right?

[16:09] ---
    Shirayuki,
[16:11] ---
    I'll go relieve Muto from
    reception desk duties.
[16:13] ---
    Yep, okay.
[16:15] ---
    See you later, then.
[16:17] ---
    Okay.
[16:32] ---
    "Reception"
[16:33] ---
    "Cheerleading Competition"
    "Admission Ticket"
[16:53] ---
    "Shirayuki Hotogi" "No Subject"
[16:54] ---
    "Kin, I'm sorry."
[16:54] ---
    Kin, I'm sorry.
[16:58] ---
    "Goodbye."
[16:59] ---
    Shirayuki?
[17:01] ---
    Tohyama!
[17:02] ---
    M-Ms. Tsuzuri?!
[17:02] ---
    Where's Hotogi?
[17:04] ---
    She should be at the student council tent.
[17:06] ---
    She's not, that's why I'm looking for her!
[17:07] ---
    What?
[17:08] ---
    Hey, didn't she receive an email?
[17:11] ---
    If he's involved in this,
    there should've been some indication.
[17:14] ---
    Try to remember!
[17:15] ---
    "He"?
[17:17] ---
    I heard that Durandal
    sends a threatening email
[17:19] ---
    to his target on their
    cell before he kidnaps them.
[17:22] ---
    Durandal!
[17:24] ---
    Hey! Tohyama!
[17:27] ---
    What does she mean by "Goodbye"?
[17:30] ---
    Pick it up, Shirayuki! Please, pick it up!
[17:34] ---
    Dammit!
[17:37] ---
    Aria!
[17:42] ---
    Why isn't Aria picking up, either?!
[17:50] ---
    Dammit! What am I doing?!
[17:55] ---
    Shirayuki asked me to protect her.
    How could I let this happen?!

[18:01] ---
    Aria was telling me so strongly that
    danger was closing in on Shirayuki, too.

[18:05] ---
    If I had trusted Aria's intuition...
[18:08] ---
    if I hadn't driven her away...
    we could've protected Shirayuki.

[18:19] ---
    Dammit! Where are you?!
[18:23] ---
    Aria?!
[18:24] ---
    No.
[18:26] ---
    This is Reki calling.
[18:28] ---
    I heard that our client,
    Shirayuki, went missing.
[18:32] ---
    That's right! You look for her, too!
[18:38] ---
    Please calm down.
[18:39] ---
    Losing one's cool makes one's
    abilities decrease by half.
[18:44] ---
    You're exactly in that state right now.
[18:47] ---
    Are you a little calmer now?
[18:51] ---
    Yeah.
[18:52] ---
    Reki, did anyone see Shirayuki?
[18:54] ---
    I saw her twelve minutes ago
    near Logi's garage.
[18:59] ---
    Shirayuki shouldn't have
    any business there.
[19:01] ---
    Reki, is there anything
    unusual around there?
[19:04] ---
    Anything you can think of, just tell me.
[19:06] ---
    The doors of Logi's equipment
    warehouse ♪3 are open.
[19:09] ---
    Since this warehouse isn't normally used,
    I think this is unnatural.
[19:13] ---
    Equipment warehouse ♪3,
    you said?! I'm gonna head there!
[19:25] ---
    I don't sense anyone here.
[19:27] ---
    Hm?
[19:28] ---
    Where does that elevator go to?
[19:33] ---
    "Equipment Warehouse ♪3 Map"
[19:35] ---
    Seriously...?
[19:43] ---
    "Danger: Flammable"
[20:05] ---
    Are you there, Durandal?
[20:08] ---
    I'm here, so you'll keep your promise, right?
[20:16] ---
    Yeah. I won't harm the
    people at Butei High...
[20:21] ---
    especially Kinji Tohyama.
[20:33] ---
    --Why do you want me?
[20:34] ---
    --Shirayuki!
[20:36] ---
    I don't have any extraordinary abilities.
[20:39] ---
    Don't be so modest. You're
    a diamond in the rough.
[20:42] ---
    Moreover, with you being a poorly
    protected diamond in the rough,
[20:46] ---
    it's just natural to reach out to you.
[20:47] ---
    No...
[20:48] ---
    If I use a gun, it's possible that
    it can ignite the ammunition.

[20:54] ---
    Do you remember...
[20:55] ---
    that I called you?
[20:59] ---
    Kin's... voice...
[21:01] ---
    Once I supplied the trigger,
[21:03] ---
    you and Tohyama acted as I expected,
[21:08] ---
    and that annoying Holmes left you two.
[21:13] ---
    Follow me, Shirayuki.
[21:16] ---
    I'll take you to a place
    more suitable for you...
[21:21] ---
    to I-U...
[21:26] ---
    Shirayuki!
[21:29] ---
    Kin!
[21:30] ---
    Step aside, Shirayuki!
[21:33] ---
    No! Run!
[21:38] ---
    Dammit!
[21:43] ---
    Wha...
[21:47] ---
    Kin!
[21:49] ---
    N-No! Stop it! What're you doing?!
[21:51] ---
    Shirayuki!
[21:52] ---
    Is this the time to be worried about others?
[22:04] ---
    What?
[22:05] ---
    How sloppy!
[22:07] ---
    Well, for being stupid Kinji,
    you were actually helpful.
[22:12] ---
    Durandal!
[22:13] ---
    You're under arrest for
    attempted abduction of a minor!
[22:41] ---
    I always ran on my own,
[22:47] ---
    Right up against my limit.
[22:54] ---
    Am I a third wheel?
    If that's how you feel

[22:59] ---
    It's still not too late.
    You can turn back here.

[23:06] ---
    I was used to saying
    goodbye until I met you that day.

[23:15] ---
    "I want to protect you"...
[23:18] ---
    No one had said that to me before.
[23:28] ---
    I think I had been waiting
    a long time to hear that...

[23:32] ---
    I want to believe in you!
[23:39] ---
    What will be the final?
[23:42] ---
    Through camellia-colored eyes...
[23:53] ---
    Hey, Kinji.
[23:54] ---
    Don't you think "Durandal" and
    "beach sandal" sound similar?

[23:56] ---
    You're very abrupt these days.
[23:58] ---
    It's strange, isn't it? "Beach
    sandal" sounds really summerish,

[24:02] ---
    but the power he uses is ice...
[24:04] ---
    That's contradictory.
[24:05] ---
    I see no problem.
[24:06] ---
    Summer reminds you of shaved ice, doesn't it?
[24:08] ---
    Oh, I see!
[24:09] ---
    Just as I'd expect from my first slave!
[24:11] ---
    Brilliant deduction!
[24:12] ---
    You being a descendent of Holmes
    may be the biggest contradiction.

[24:15] ---
    "Episode 8: Durandal"
[24:15] ---
    Next time, Aria the Scarlet Ammo episode 8!
[24:17] ---
    "Durandal"!
[24:18] ---
    Watch it or I'll pump some holes in you-ndal!
