**[00:05] Fake Shizuku**
You...
**[00:11] Hajime**
Stay put for a bit.
***SIGN*** Episode 13: Thank God She's Still a Pervert!
**[01:54] Hajime**
Don't spit it out. Swallow it
like your life depends on it.
**[02:02] Shizuku**
Are you really Nagumo-kun?
**[02:04] Hajime**
What else do I look like?
**[02:06] Shizuku**
B-But how...
**[02:08] Hajime**
Calm down.
**[02:09] Hajime**
I just went down the path
that appeared and ended up here.
**[02:13] Shizuku**
S-So...
**[02:16] Shizuku**
Nagumo-kun really came to save...
**[02:28] Hajime**
There, you should be in top shape now.
**[02:30] Hajime**
Go on and take your revenge.
**[02:34] Shizuku**
B-But, I couldn't beat it.
**[02:38] Shizuku**
So...
**[02:43] Hajime**
Yaegashi, don't worry.
**[02:46] Shizuku**
Huh?
**[02:47] Hajime**
Now behold, this item of
safety, built for you.
**[02:52] Shizuku**
Nagumo-kun...
**[02:55] Hajime**
Pink Mask Mark II.
**[02:58] Shizuku**
Nagumo-kun! This is no time
for messing around!
**[03:01] Hajime**
How rude. I'm not messing around.
**[03:04] Hajime**
The improvements from Evolution Magic
are applied to your mask as well.
**[03:10] Hajime**
Don't be startled by hearing this.
**[03:12] Hajime**
The mask makes all
of your senses three times better.
**[03:16] Hajime**
That should let you beat it.
**[03:19] Shizuku**
How is it so impossibly powerful?
**[03:22] Hajime**
I know you want it badly.
**[03:24] Hajime**
Don't worry, I accept you
as the worthy owner of—
**[03:29] Shizuku**
I don't want it. I can win
without that thing!
**[03:33] Shizuku**
Or rather, I'll fight with all my
life in order to avoid wearing it!
**[03:37] Hajime**
That's right. You can win,
even without this thing.
**[03:42] Hajime**
Don't forget.
**[03:44] Hajime**
It is a real aspect of you,
but not you entirely.
**[03:49] Hajime**
It's just one aspect of you,
composed of negative emotions.
**[03:53] Hajime**
Everything that's important is held by
"Shizuku Yaegashi," the person in front of me.
**[03:59] Hajime**
Isn't that right?
**[04:00] Shizuku**
Held by me...
**[04:02] Hajime**
If you're able to feel
depressed by what it says,
**[04:05] Hajime**
that's proof that you're able to
face your problems head-on.
**[04:07] Hajime**
Good-for-nothing bums just ignore them.
**[04:11] Hajime**
That said, you're a bit too uptight.
**[04:14] Hajime**
Loosen up a little.
**[04:17] Shizuku**
Nagumo-kun...
**[04:19] Hajime**
By the way, I'm on team good-for-nothing.
**[04:23] Hajime**
I'll watch over you.
**[04:25] Hajime**
Keep trying until you win.
You won't die as long as I'm here.
**[04:30] Hajime**
I won't let you die. Don't worry.
**[04:37] Shizuku**
What a sweet pickup line.
**[04:40] Shizuku**
So, you'll really watch over me?
**[04:43] Hajime**
Yeah.
**[04:44] Shizuku**
And if I get in trouble, you'll protect me?
**[04:46] Hajime**
Yeah.
**[04:48] Shizuku**
If I get depressed again,
you'll help me get back on my feet?
**[04:52] Hajime**
Fine, fine.
**[04:55] Shizuku**
Off I go, then.
**[04:56] Hajime**
Yeah, go on.
**[05:00] Fake Shizuku**
I can't believe you could flirt like
that in front of an enemy.
**[05:04] Fake Shizuku**
What a fine look you have on your face now.
**[05:07] Shizuku**
You think so? It must
be thanks to Nagumo-kun.
**[05:10] Fake Shizuku**
So, you're going to betray your
best friend and rival, after all...
**[05:16] Shizuku**
Enough of this useless chatter.
This exchange is meaningless.
**[05:20] Shizuku**
I'll survive, and see Kaori
and the others again.
**[05:24] Shizuku**
Everything starts from there.
**[05:27] Shizuku**
I'll grab hold of the best outcome for me,
and I won't give up until I do.
**[05:33] Fake Shizuku**
So you're going to be
a fighting woman again.
**[05:37] Shizuku**
You're right about how
I've suppressed myself my whole life.
**[05:41] Shizuku**
But I earned many things
through that life as well.
**[05:44] Shizuku**
They're all precious to me.
I can't let them go.
**[05:48] Shizuku**
Even as a fighting woman, it seems like
someone far stronger than me would protect me.
**[05:53] Fake Shizuku**
It's definitely
an indirect reason, you know.
**[05:56] Fake Shizuku**
It's only because he's
precious to Kaori. I'm certain.
**[06:00] Shizuku**
That's fine, for now.
**[06:04] Shizuku**
I will put my all in this strike.
Survive it, if you can.
**[06:11] Fake Shizuku**
What a wonderfully determined spirit.
**[06:13] Fake Shizuku**
Seriously, what a moment he chose to appear.
**[06:16] Fake Shizuku**
A person who'll be at
the right place at the right time.
**[06:20] Fake Shizuku**
I thought those only existed in stories.
**[06:56] Hajime**
Great. What a fascinating strike that was.
**[07:04] Shizuku**
You can go ahead and be
fascinated by the rest of me, too.
**[07:07] Hajime**
What are you talking about?
**[07:08] Shizuku**
How unfortunate.
**[07:13] Hajime**
Yaegashi, is it too hard to walk?
**[07:16] Shizuku**
Yes, it is.
**[07:18] Shizuku**
I'm counting on you, Nagumo-kun.
**[07:21] Hajime**
Huh?
**[07:22] Shizuku**
Carry me.
**[07:24] Hajime**
Yaegashi, have you changed a little?
**[07:27] Hajime**
It's like you're not holding back anymore,
or got bolder or something.
**[07:33] Shizuku**
I just decided to be
a bit more honest with myself.
**[07:36] Shizuku**
Oh, I know.
**[07:37] Shizuku**
Can you make me an artifact imbued
with Regeneration Magic?
**[07:41] Shizuku**
In fact, can you make it a hair accessory?
**[07:44] Shizuku**
I just lost my hairband.
**[07:48] Shizuku**
And make it cute.
**[07:49] Hajime**
That's really specific.
**[07:53] Hajime**
Seriously, I guess you got over something.
**[07:58] Shizuku**
So pretty...
**[07:59] Hajime**
There, that'll do it, right?
**[08:08] Shizuku**
How is it?
**[08:10] Hajime**
It's not as strong
as actual regeneration magic,
**[08:13] Hajime**
but it's applying a healing factor
to your body for sure.
**[08:18] Shizuku**
That's not what I was asking.
**[08:21] Hajime**
Let's hurry.
**[08:24] Shizuku**
Oh, I wanted to be carried
in front, like a princess.
**[08:27] Shizuku**
Oh well.
**[08:30] Shizuku**
Hey, Nagumo-kun.
**[08:32] Hajime**
Yeah? What is it?
**[08:34] Shizuku**
Did you hear my conversation
with the other me?
**[08:37] Hajime**
No, you were far away, and spoke softly.
**[08:41] Shizuku**
I see.
**[08:43] Shizuku**
You can see the calluses on my hands, right?
**[08:46] Shizuku**
I had them from before,
they got tougher after I came to Tortus.
**[08:51] Shizuku**
Do you think they're not feminine?
**[08:56] Hajime**
If a "feminine hand" is defined
as a soft hand with no scars,
**[09:00] Hajime**
then yeah, that doesn't apply to your hands.
**[09:04] Hajime**
But I think your hands are good hands.
**[09:06] Shizuku**
Really?
**[09:07] Hajime**
Yeah,
**[09:08] Hajime**
they're prettier than the
hands of girls who can't
**[09:12] Hajime**
lift a finger to do anything by themselves.
**[09:15] Hajime**
Yaegashi?
**[09:17] Shizuku**
Thanks for coming to save me.
**[09:20] Hajime**
It was just a coincidence.
**[09:22] Shizuku**
Nagumo-kun, I really want to
see Kaori as soon as possible.
**[09:26] Shizuku**
I want to see Yue, Shea, and Tio too.
**[09:29] Shizuku**
And then...
**[09:31] Shizuku**
I'll tell them that I fell
in love with Nagumo-kun.
**[09:33] Shizuku**
I don't know how that'll play out,
**[09:35] Shizuku**
but I want to be a bit
more honest with everyone.
**[09:38] Hajime**
In that case, we should hurry—
**[09:41] Hajime**
Wait, Yaegashi, did you just...
**[09:45] Shizuku**
Wait for me, Kaori.
**[09:48] Shizuku**
I'll show you how I've become
a bit more selfish.
**[09:54] Eri**
Huh, what a weird dream.
**[09:58] Eri**
Why did I dream about Suzu?
**[10:00] Freid**
It's almost time to depart.
**[10:03] Eri**
Oh, you came all the way to get me?
**[10:07] Eri**
You're so nice, Freid!
**[10:09] Freid**
Don't lose control. Obey my orders.
**[10:13] Freid**
You're not as easy to kill right now.
**[10:16] Eri**
Yes, yes, I know.
**[10:18] Freid**
Let's go.
**[10:28] Eri**
Suzu... You always turn away from reality.
**[10:32] Eri**
That's your weakness.
**[10:36] Fake Suzu**
That's my weakness.
**[10:41] Suzu**
Herem!
**[10:51] Fake Suzu**
Always keep smiling no matter what.
**[10:54] Fake Suzu**
That way, I'll never be lonely, right?
**[10:59] Fake Suzu**
Did you really think that
fake smile would be enough?
**[11:04] Fake Suzu**
You've never had a real
heart-to-heart with anyone,
**[11:06] Fake Suzu**
just numerous shallow relationships.
**[11:10] Fake Suzu**
Did you really think you weren't alone?
**[11:13] Fake Suzu**
Let's recall what kind of
person I really am,
**[11:17] Fake Suzu**
and the grave sin I've committed!
**[11:22] Fake Suzu**
From the very first moment, right?
**[11:24] Fake Suzu**
Yeah, the very first moment I met her.
**[11:28] Fake Suzu**
I never believed Eri was a shy, gentle girl.
**[11:34] Fake Suzu**
Yes, I thought we were similar.
**[11:37] Fake Suzu**
That we were both calculating,
performative people!
**[11:50] Fake Suzu**
That's why I believed Eri was just like me,
and that she would resonate with me.
**[11:57] Fake Suzu**
I had no doubt that she was my best friend.
**[12:01] Fake Suzu**
Or rather, I wanted to believe that.
**[12:04] Fake Suzu**
I was the only person who could
have seen Eri's true nature.
**[12:08] Fake Suzu**
I was the only person who
could have stopped that tragedy.
**[12:12] Fake Suzu**
I should have questioned Eri.
**[12:14] Fake Suzu**
I shouldn't
have run away from her. I needed to face her.
**[12:17] Fake Suzu**
But no, you looked away!
**[12:20] Fake Suzu**
From reality, from your best friend,
**[12:23] Fake Suzu**
just to protect yourself!
**[12:39] Fake Suzu**
What would you do, after you see her again?
**[12:42] Fake Suzu**
You don't really know what to say to her.
**[12:47] Fake Suzu**
I'm not getting any stronger
after saying all of that.
**[12:50] Fake Suzu**
In fact, I'm getting weaker.
**[12:53] Suzu**
I knew it.
**[12:55] Suzu**
So, those are the rules after all.
**[12:58] Suzu**
In that case, you won't
be getting any stronger.
**[13:02] Fake Suzu**
I see.
**[13:03] Fake Suzu**
You didn't argue with me at all, because...
**[13:06] Fake Suzu**
You used this as an opportunity
to take a good look at yourself.
**[13:10] Suzu**
Everything you said is true.
**[13:12] Suzu**
I really am a terrible person.
**[13:15] Suzu**
But I'm done walking in circles
to protect myself.
**[13:20] Suzu**
When I saw that dream
in the Haltsina Labyrinth,
**[13:24] Suzu**
I figured out what it was
that I've been running away from.
**[13:29] Fake Suzu**
A world where I was able to stop Eri
so we could go back to being happy.
**[13:33] Fake Suzu**
That was too convenient, even as a dream.
**[13:34] Suzu**
It was within reach, that world in my dream.
**[13:38] Suzu**
If only I had accepted reality.
**[13:42] Suzu**
Like you said,
**[13:43] Suzu**
I don't know what
I'll do once I see Eri again.
**[13:47] Suzu**
Do I want to yell at her?
**[13:48] Suzu**
Apologize to her for looking away?
Convince her to come back?
**[13:54] Suzu**
I don't know...
**[13:55] Suzu**
I don't know, but I do know
I have to see her again!
**[14:00] Fake Suzu**
So, you're determined.
**[14:03] Suzu**
Yes.
**[14:03] Suzu**
I'm no longer chasing dreams
that are pure convenience.
**[14:06] Suzu**
I will overcome you
and move on to the future!
**[14:10] Fake Suzu**
I'm ready.
**[14:12] Fake Suzu**
You converted your weakness into willpower.
**[14:15] Fake Suzu**
Show me how strong that made you!
**[14:20] Suzu**
Thank you, Miss Test. Here I come!
**[14:23] Suzu**
A million flowers of light, scatter!
**[14:26] Suzu**
Blossom Burst!
**[14:40] Fake Suzu**
I hope you can connect with her.
**[14:57] Suzu**
Huh?!
**[14:59] Ryutarou**
Hey, Suzu. You awake?
**[15:01] Suzu**
Huh? Ryutarou-kun?
**[15:04] Ryutarou**
Yep, it's me.
**[15:06] Suzu**
Were all of the testing
rooms connected or something?
**[15:11] Ryutarou**
Seems like it.
**[15:12] Ryutarou**
I think someone else's room is up ahead too.
**[15:15] Suzu**
I hope it's Kaorin or Tio-san.
**[15:17] Suzu**
Oh, by the way, how
was your test, Ryutarou-kun?
**[15:21] Ryutarou**
My test?
**[15:22] Suzu**
You don't have to tell me
if it's hard to talk about.
**[15:24] Ryutarou**
No, it wasn't a big deal. I don't mind.
**[15:28] Ryutarou**
I just got insulted for being a weakling.
**[15:33] Ryutarou**
That I was just pretending to be okay with
**[15:36] Ryutarou**
being second and third
after Kouki and Nagumo.
**[15:40] Suzu**
You mean...
**[15:41] Ryutarou**
I know I can't beat them,
**[15:43] Ryutarou**
that I don't want to feel shame
by trying and failing to be better.
**[15:46] Ryutarou**
That I'm afraid of admitting it...
**[15:49] Ryutarou**
I can only ever play a supporting role.
**[15:53] Ryutarou**
And so on and so forth.
**[15:54] Suzu**
You're pathetic, Ryutarou-kun!
**[15:57] Ryutarou**
Shut up! Don't rub it in!
**[16:04] Fake Tio**
I protected the powerless so many times.
**[16:08] Fake Tio**
I supported the weak so often.
**[16:11] Fake Tio**
When evil appeared, I was standing
in front of everyone to fight it.
**[16:19] Tio**
That's right.
Nations, races, and nothing else mattered.
**[16:23] Tio**
We, the dragonborn, were
the protectors of all.
**[16:27] Fake Tio**
Was there anyone in that era never saved by us?
**[16:31] Fake Tio**
Our high morals and benevolence!
**[16:34] Fake Tio**
Our determination to be noble!
**[16:37] Fake Tio**
Was there anyone who didn't respect us?
**[16:43] Tio**
We were lauded as the strongest and best nation.
**[16:47] Fake Tio**
We were a paradise.
**[16:49] Fake Tio**
Both the weak and the strong,
rich and poor, and every race.
**[16:53] Fake Tio**
We all prospered together in our paradise!
**[16:57] Tio**
Indeed.
**[17:07] Fake Tio**
And the god, and his people,
destroyed it all.
**[17:20] Fake Tio**
Yes, I can feel it!
**[17:21] Fake Tio**
Your hatred, your rage,
your fear, and your despair!
**[17:27] Fake Tio**
Even after centuries,
you can never forget that tragedy.
**[17:30] Fake Tio**
Those you protected
turning on you so quickly.
**[17:34] Fake Tio**
The look of contempt and fear.
**[17:37] Fake Tio**
The shame of having your friends, comrades,
and parents killed, and their corpses mutilated.
**[17:44] Fake Tio**
Do you remember how good that felt?
**[17:49] Fake Tio**
You know, when you pulverized that church.
**[17:53] Fake Tio**
The church was the center
of that great oppression.
**[17:57] Fake Tio**
Watching your hated enemy shatter
into a billion pieces
**[18:00] Fake Tio**
was unspeakable pleasure, was it not?
**[18:03] Fake Tio**
When you first decided
to follow Hajime Nagumo,
**[18:06] Fake Tio**
it was because you thought
he was useful, wasn't it?
**[18:10] Fake Tio**
If the god threatens him,
Hajime Nagumo would threaten back.
**[18:14] Fake Tio**
That would be a great move
in your plot for revenge.
**[18:18] Fake Tio**
That's what you thought, right?
**[18:22] Fake Tio**
Humans, beastmen, demons, and the god.
**[18:27] Fake Tio**
You hate them all
for taking everything from you.
**[18:31] Fake Tio**
That hatred, that rage, it's all justified.
**[18:35] Fake Tio**
Yes, you have every right to take revenge!
**[18:39] Fake Tio**
Take my hand.
**[18:41] Fake Tio**
I will help you attain that revenge.
**[18:46] Fake Tio**
You no longer need to let your
benevolence hold back your fangs.
**[18:51] Fake Tio**
I will guide Hajime Nagumo
in the right direction.
**[18:55] Suzu**
Tio-san! Don't listen to her!
**[18:58] Ryutarou**
Please, go back to your usual self!
**[19:03] Tio**
We know not why we exist.
**[19:06] Tio**
Are we beasts, or are we men?
**[19:10] Tio**
If there is meaning to everything
in the world, where do the answers lie?
**[19:16] Fake Tio**
Those words...
**[19:17] Tio**
For over millennia the answers evaded us.
**[19:22] Tio**
Then, we dedicated our soul to determining
whether we are beasts or men.
**[19:26] Fake Tio**
My powers... Impossible. What caused this?
**[19:30] Tio**
The eyes of the dragon
see through to every truth,
**[19:33] Tio**
shattering all deception and doubt.
**[19:35] Tio**
The claws of the dragon tear through iron
walls to destroy the malice lurking within.
**[19:41] Tio**
The fangs of the dragon crush our own
weaknesses to wash away hate and rage.
**[19:47] Tio**
When we lose virtue, we become mere beasts.
**[19:51] Tio**
But as long as we continue to wield
the sword of rationality...
**[19:55] Tio**
We are dragonborn!
**[19:57] Fake Tio**
You... Were you controlling
yourself this whole time?
**[20:02] Tio**
I thank you, will of the labyrinth.
**[20:05] Tio**
I was able to manipulate my mind,
even when facing ancient magical powers.
**[20:10] Tio**
I should be able to pull this
off against the god as well.
**[20:13] Fake Tio**
You used the test to test yourself.
**[20:16] Fake Tio**
To see if you could resist
the god's temptations.
**[20:20] Fake Tio**
No, not just that.
**[20:22] Fake Tio**
You were testing to see
if you could trick the god!
**[20:25] Tio**
That was a very useful test.
**[20:28] Fake Tio**
But nothing I said is false!
**[20:31] Fake Tio**
You do harbor those
strong negative emotions.
**[20:35] Fake Tio**
How can you have them and still do this?
**[20:38] Tio**
Don't underestimate me.
Who do you think I am?
**[20:42] Tio**
I am the proud dragonborn,
last of Clan Klarus!
**[20:46] Tio**
Tio Klarus!
**[20:49] Tio**
Fangs of vengeance? Useless.
**[20:51] Tio**
Fangs of the dragon are the most powerful.
**[20:54] Tio**
Have a taste of that for yourself.
**[21:07] Tio**
Sorry.
**[21:09] Tio**
I had it all planned out,
but I guess it made you worried.
**[21:14] Tio**
That said, I really did
appreciate your cheering.
**[21:16] Tio**
Thank you.
**[21:18] Suzu**
Oh, um, uh, don't mention it.
**[21:21] Ryutarou**
Er, yes, ma'am, my pleasure.
**[21:24] Tio**
Are you the only two here?
**[21:27] Suzu**
Y-Yeah, nobody else saw that.
**[21:30] Tio**
Oh, I wish the master saw that!
**[21:32] Tio**
He would have punished me for having
that little bit of a calculating side.
**[21:39] Tio**
