**[00:12] ---**
Daddy, good luck.
**[00:16] ---**
Right. I'll be back soon.
**[00:18] ---**
At the present time,
**[00:19] ---**
the princess who is trapped
in the Realm of Man,
**[00:21] ---**
doesn't have enough magic
to open the World Tree gate.
**[00:28] ---**
So, to save the Princess,
**[00:30] ---**
you need to go to the Realm of Man and restore her magic.
**[00:35] ---**
Where you'll...
**[00:37] ---**
Use the magic in this World Tree sapling...
**[00:41] ---**
to return Princess Astarotte to normal.
**[00:44] ---**
Thank you.
**[00:46] ---**
If that doesn't work,
you know what to do.
**[00:50] ---**
Huh?
**[00:51] ---**
Let her suck it out.
**[00:54] ---**
Suck. Suck.
**[00:58] ---**
Good luck!
**[01:00] ---**
This is an emergency.
**[01:01] ---**
So at least let her have a good time
**[01:02] ---**
and something worth remembering.
**[01:04] ---**
Master Touhara Naoya, hurray!
**[01:06] ---**
Master Touhara Naoya, hurray!
**[01:08] ---**
Master Touhara Naoya, hurray!
**[01:15] ---**
I'm sure you'll be just fine, Daddy.
**[01:17] ---**
Good luck!
**[01:19] ---**
Anyway, I'll do my best.
**[01:23] ---**
Fight!
**[01:24] ---**
I'll be monitoring her
from here, as well.
**[01:27] ---**
Do not worry and get going.
**[01:30] ---**
Okay.
**[01:35] ---**
Great Sage, I really
appreciate your help.
**[01:38] ---**
Thank you.
**[01:41] ---**
S-Sure.
**[01:44] ---**
Get going.
**[01:54] ---**
What is that?!
**[01:57] ---**
It's all wet!
**[01:59] ---**
It's really, really wet!
**[02:02] ---**
I...
**[03:50] ---**
Secret Apostrophe
**[04:23] ---**
The owners of this house are currently out...
**[04:29] ---**
I'm sorry I'm late, Princess.
**[04:33] ---**
Princess, don't just
close the door on me!
**[04:36] ---**
Shut your mouth and be quiet!
**[04:40] ---**
Now he won't be able to...
**[04:43] ---**
Wh-Why do you have that key?!
**[04:45] ---**
This is my house, y'know...
**[04:48] ---**
Curses...
**[05:00] ---**
Princess!
**[05:01] ---**
Hmph!
**[05:04] ---**
Princess! Please open up!
**[05:16] ---**
Princess...
**[05:18] ---**
Standing there is dangerous...
**[05:21] ---**
I don't remember asking
you to come here!
**[05:24] ---**
If you can't follow your
master's instructions,
**[05:28] ---**
you're a failure as a toy.
**[05:30] ---**
Failure
**[05:32] ---**
Princess!
**[05:35] ---**
W-Well, I'm not evil, so I'll
give you one last chance.
**[05:41] ---**
Take a look at these!
**[05:45] ---**
These are Guardian Spirits.
**[05:47] ---**
They take care of houses
in place of their owners!
**[05:49] ---**
They're particularly
strong against people...
**[05:51] ---**
Excuse me.
**[05:52] ---**
who try to sneak into a
house they're watching over.
**[05:54] ---**
Naoya, if you wish to reclaim
your title as my toy,
**[05:58] ---**
then you must break into
this house,
**[06:01] ---**
that the Guardian Spirits are watching,
and try to reach me.
**[06:04] ---**
P-Princess...
**[06:06] ---**
What's wrong?
**[06:07] ---**
You scared?
**[06:08] ---**
No, that's not the problem...
**[06:10] ---**
Then, what exactly?!
**[06:12] ---**
I can... see your panties.
**[06:20] ---**
You creep!
**[06:22] ---**
Ow...
**[06:36] ---**
God, stupid Naoya...
**[06:39] ---**
He needs to be punished for trying
**[06:41] ---**
to sneak a peek at his master's panties.
**[06:46] ---**
What are you going
to do with that wig?
**[06:49] ---**
I think it's obvious.
**[06:50] ---**
Make Naoya put it on and
walk around town with it on.
**[06:52] ---**
I'm not sure about that...
**[06:57] ---**
Why are you here already, Naoya?!
**[07:03] ---**
What happened to the Guardian Spirits?!
**[07:04] ---**
The Guardian Spirits?!
**[07:07] ---**
Hey! I thought I ordered
you to stop him!
**[07:12] ---**
The master of this house is...
**[07:14] ---**
...Naoya, so...
**[07:16] ---**
...we must obey him.
**[07:18] ---**
Huh?
**[07:19] ---**
I'm Naoya's master!
**[07:20] ---**
The master of a master
should be *the* master!
**[07:23] ---**
Hey!
**[07:27] ---**
Um, Princess?
**[07:37] ---**
You've done well to make it this far!
**[07:40] ---**
Very well. I shall face you myself!
**[07:43] ---**
Now, come at me!
**[07:46] ---**
Princess...
**[07:49] ---**
Let's go back.
**[07:52] ---**
You've had a bad experience
because of my faults.
**[07:57] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[07:58] ---**
Don't just apologize
after all that!
**[08:01] ---**
B-Besides, I like it here.
**[08:04] ---**
I won't go back yet.
**[08:06] ---**
We're all waiting for
you to come back.
**[08:09] ---**
Myself included.
**[08:13] ---**
I won't make you feel
uncomfortable again.
**[08:18] ---**
I swear.
**[08:21] ---**
Let's go back together, Princess.
**[08:26] ---**
W-Well, I guess you're right.
**[08:28] ---**
I've started getting bored here
**[08:30] ---**
and if I stay here too long,
**[08:31] ---**
it'll be a problem for everyone back home.
**[08:33] ---**
I have to take care of things
because I'm a princess, after all.
**[08:36] ---**
Right.
**[08:37] ---**
Y-Yes.
**[08:39] ---**
I don't really want to, but...
**[08:44] ---**
I mean, I have to, you know?
**[08:50] ---**
I've finally been able
to make up with you.
**[08:56] ---**
It's really because I
have to go back, okay?
**[08:59] ---**
Okay.
**[09:08] ---**
Now, how do we get back?
**[09:12] ---**
Princess, what's the matter?
**[09:16] ---**
Oh, if you need to use the restroom,
**[09:17] ---**
go through the living room
and you'll see it in front—
**[09:19] ---**
That's not the problem!
**[09:20] ---**
God...
**[09:23] ---**
If you make up with someone,
**[09:25] ---**
you have to kiss them on the forehead.
**[09:32] ---**
What's wrong?
**[09:33] ---**
We were fighting, weren't we?
**[09:38] ---**
Fighting? I wouldn't go that far...
**[09:42] ---**
We were fighting, right?
**[09:43] ---**
Y-Yeah.
**[09:46] ---**
After you fight, y'know,
you make up, right?
**[09:51] ---**
Yeah...
**[09:52] ---**
And we made up, didn't we? Didn't we?
**[09:58] ---**
Yeah, I guess we did.
**[10:02] ---**
And...
**[10:04] ---**
And when you make up...
**[10:06] ---**
When you make up?
**[10:08] ---**
The Touhara-style...
**[10:13] ---**
Right!
**[10:45] ---**
They're kissing!
**[10:50] ---**
Bah. It's only on the forehead.
**[10:52] ---**
Welcome back.
**[10:54] ---**
W-Wait, this is just...
**[10:57] ---**
A romance that starts with
the forehead. Forever.
**[11:01] ---**
Wrong number of syllables...
**[11:03] ---**
Shut up!
**[11:08] ---**
Well, this is quite odd.
**[11:11] ---**
What is?
**[11:13] ---**
Princess Astarotte's magic is back to normal.
**[11:16] ---**
Wouldn't that be because
of the World Tree sapling?
**[11:20] ---**
No, she came back
using her own power,
**[11:22] ---**
and opened the World Tree door herself.
**[11:24] ---**
I guess her power came back because
of the kiss on the forehead.
**[11:28] ---**
That can't be.
**[11:30] ---**
In order to restore a succubus' power,
**[11:32] ---**
contact between mucous
membranes must be present.
**[11:34] ---**
It can't happen with a
kiss on the forehead.
**[11:41] ---**
Well, in that case, this has
gotten quite interesting.
**[11:58] ---**
Lotte...
**[11:59] ---**
I mean, the princess... she isn't here?
**[12:01] ---**
I'm sorry about that, Lady Draupnils.
**[12:06] ---**
Princess Astarotte is at the amusement park...
**[12:08] ---**
with a person from her harem today.
**[12:10] ---**
Oh, what a coincidence.
**[12:11] ---**
I was going to invite her to
the amusement park, as well.
**[12:15] ---**
Huh? What was that?!
**[12:16] ---**
She almost missed that
**[12:16] ---**
Someone from her harem?!
**[12:18] ---**
Th-That's correct.
**[12:21] ---**
So, she was telling the truth
at the parent-teacher party?
**[12:25] ---**
She's going on a date at an
amusement park! That brat!
**[12:28] ---**
What? Daddy and Lotte went
to the amusement park?
**[12:32] ---**
That's correct.
**[12:33] ---**
They went without
telling me? No fair.
**[12:36] ---**
She just said "Daddy," didn't she?
**[12:38] ---**
Is she...
**[12:39] ---**
I wanted to go too.
**[12:41] ---**
They're going on a date
because they made up.
**[12:45] ---**
You should let them be.
**[12:47] ---**
I see.
**[12:48] ---**
Miss, would you like to go
to the amusement park with me?
**[13:02] ---**
I guess they have amusement parks
like this in the Monster Realm too.
**[13:07] ---**
Princess, where do you
want to go first?
**[13:11] ---**
Soft serve ice cream.
**[13:15] ---**
Okay.
**[13:19] ---**
Here you go.
**[13:20] ---**
Thank you.
**[13:24] ---**
Princess!
**[13:27] ---**
Sorry it took so long.
**[13:29] ---**
Here you go.
**[13:31] ---**
Thanks.
**[13:37] ---**
Princess.
**[13:39] ---**
There's some on your cheek.
**[13:48] ---**
That's something couples do!
**[13:52] ---**
You're... You're...
**[13:54] ---**
You're no better than a cow!
**[13:57] ---**
Princess...
**[13:58] ---**
Ma'am, this isn't that
kind of attraction!
**[14:06] ---**
So, you're the daughter of a Count?
**[14:10] ---**
Yes, I am of the noble vampire race's direct lineage.
**[14:13] ---**
Well, I say that, but the
Count's nothing more...
**[14:15] ---**
than a ruler of a territory under
this kingdom's protection.
**[14:18] ---**
You can call me Elika, though.
**[14:21] ---**
You can call me Asuha.
**[14:23] ---**
Let's see... Where's Lotte?
**[14:27] ---**
Where's Daddy?
**[14:31] ---**
Hmph.
**[14:34] ---**
Oh.
**[14:42] ---**
This is cute, isn't it?
**[14:43] ---**
It is.
**[14:45] ---**
So, why are you here?
**[14:48] ---**
I got some complimentary tickets,
so I decided to take a look.
**[14:52] ---**
What about you?
**[14:53] ---**
I got some complimentary tickets
so I came.
**[14:58] ---**
I see.
**[15:00] ---**
He's part of your harem, right?
**[15:03] ---**
Y-Yeah, is something wrong?
**[15:05] ---**
So, how far have you gone?
**[15:12] ---**
All the way, of course.
**[15:15] ---**
A-All the way?
You mean like "Bark bark"?
**[15:19] ---**
No way. You mean you've
even "meow meow'd"?
**[15:23] ---**
Y-Yeah, of course.
**[15:25] ---**
I've "bark bark'd," "meow
meow'd," the works.
**[15:28] ---**
What?!
**[15:29] ---**
You haven't "cock a doodle doo'd"
**[15:31] ---**
because you could, have you?
**[15:34] ---**
"Cock a doodle doo"
isn't even a big deal.
**[15:39] ---**
Well, whatever.
**[15:43] ---**
I guess you've grown up quite a bit.
**[15:46] ---**
O-Of course.
**[15:49] ---**
Since you're all grown
up and a lady now,
**[15:53] ---**
*that* shouldn't be any
problem for you, should it?
**[15:55] ---**
That?
**[15:58] ---**
Of course.
**[16:02] ---**
A haunted house, huh?
**[16:11] ---**
I won't be holding
onto you or anything!
**[16:13] ---**
Get all weird thoughts out of your head!
**[16:35] ---**
Let's hurry it up a bit!
**[16:37] ---**
Princess, that's dangerous!
**[17:02] ---**
That was fun, wasn't it, Princess?
**[17:05] ---**
It was more cute than scary.
**[17:09] ---**
Lotte!
**[17:18] ---**
Use mine!
**[17:22] ---**
Princess, this way.
**[17:34] ---**
Do you always walk around
with a pair of panties?
**[17:38] ---**
Asuha often forgets to wear them,
**[17:41] ---**
so I carry them just in case.
**[17:44] ---**
I'm glad they were of use.
**[17:48] ---**
Let's go.
**[17:49] ---**
Right.
**[17:55] ---**
Shouldn't we follow them?
**[17:58] ---**
We can't get in the way
of their date any further.
**[18:00] ---**
You're right.
**[18:02] ---**
Anything you want to ride?
**[18:04] ---**
The roller coaster!
**[18:06] ---**
Sure, but you're wearing
panties, right?
**[18:09] ---**
It'll be fine.
**[18:34] ---**
Princess, let's ride the ferris wheel.
**[18:38] ---**
I'm sure it'll have a great view.
**[18:41] ---**
Let's go!
**[19:02] ---**
Can't see the manor.
**[19:04] ---**
The forest's in the way.
**[19:06] ---**
But from up here, the amusement park looks kinda cute
**[19:09] ---**
since it looks like a town made of toys.
**[19:15] ---**
Princess...
**[19:16] ---**
I...
**[19:19] ---**
Why am I such a kid?
**[19:22] ---**
You don't like me like this, do you?
**[19:25] ---**
I mean, look at what happened on our date...
**[19:31] ---**
It's embarrassing,
**[19:33] ---**
but I'm this old and yet,
I still wet the bed sometimes.
**[19:44] ---**
Princess...
**[19:54] ---**
I'll tell you something.
**[19:56] ---**
I didn't stop wetting the
bed until I turned twelve.
**[20:00] ---**
Naoya...
**[20:02] ---**
I couldn't tell Asuha that...
**[20:04] ---**
because she stopped at five and it'd just be embarrassing...
**[20:07] ---**
but I'll let you in on it.
**[20:11] ---**
It'll be our secret.
**[20:16] ---**
I see.
**[20:17] ---**
Then, I'll stop before I reach twelve!
**[20:21] ---**
Then I can make fun of you!
**[20:25] ---**
Okay, if you stop earlier than I did...
**[20:27] ---**
Yeah, what?
**[20:30] ---**
Then, you can tell Asuha about everything!
**[20:34] ---**
All right!
**[20:37] ---**
You'd better remember what you just said!
**[20:43] ---**
Sure.
**[21:08] ---**
What's this?
**[21:10] ---**
The Great Sage's Ivory Tower.
**[21:17] ---**
Oh, did you come to see me?
**[21:20] ---**
Wow!
**[21:22] ---**
Why is your house here, Ini?
**[21:24] ---**
Well, you see,
**[21:27] ---**
I was thinking it'd be nice...
**[21:29] ---**
if I was closer,
we could see each other whenever.
**[21:36] ---**
I'll be...
**[21:43] ---**
your lover now.
**[21:48] ---**
I can't believe you!
**[21:56] ---**
To be continued.
**[23:29] ---**
Forceful Comma
**[23:32] ---**
Lover?
**[23:33] ---**
A-A person of love?
**[23:35] ---**
Does that mean what I think it does?
**[23:37] ---**
I don't really get it.
**[23:38] ---**
Is like and love so different?
**[23:42] ---**
Are they actually completely different?
