    After studying the eyewitness reports,
[00:16] Lucy
    I believe this spot has the
    highest chance of success.
[00:21] Lucy
    Okay!
[00:22] Lucy
    Now to begin the UFO-summoning ritual!
[00:26] Lucy
    Yun, yun, yun!

    Yun, yun, yun!
[02:06] Suzu
    Your ninja gear's all fixed?
SIGN    Episode 9: "An Encounter with 'Him'?"
[02:09] Matsuri
    Yeah. A Korogi drone delivered it
    to me this morning.
[02:14] Suzu
    Sorry. It broke because of me, after all.
[02:17] Matsuri
    It's fine.
[02:18] Matsuri
    Reo was super motivated.
[02:20] Matsuri
    She upgraded its enchantments, apparently.
[02:25] Suzu
    Shirogane?
[02:28] Matsuri
    He's been staring off
    into space a lot recently.
[02:33] Yayoi
    Hey, Matsuri!
[02:36] Yayoi
    Somebody wants to talk to you!
[02:37] Matsuri
    Huh? Who is it?
[02:42] Boy A
    Matsuri-chan, let's exchange LINE IDs!
[02:45] Matsuri
    Why would I? I don't even know you guys.
[02:48] Boy A
    Well, you know...
[02:49] Boy A
    You're really cute!
[02:51] Boy B
    And we wanna be friends with ya.
[02:55] Matsuri
    C...
[02:56] Matsuri
    Cute?
[02:58] Boy A
    You're a total knockout!
[02:59] Boy B
    Yeah, yeah!
[03:00] Matsuri
    Knockout?!
[03:01] Boy A
    Be my friend!
[03:02] Boy B
    Let's text! Come on!
[03:07] Boy B
    A-Actually, never mind!
[03:09] Boy A
    Think about it!
[03:10] Matsuri
    What?!
[03:12] Matsuri
    O-Oh, Ninokuru-senpai.
[03:16] Soga
    Did I interrupt something?
[03:16] Matsuri
    Nah, you saved me.
[03:19] Matsuri
    This sucks. They don't know I'm a dude.
[03:24] Soga
    True.
[03:25] Soga
    I can only speak to him because
    I know the male Kazamaki,
[03:29] Soga
    but if you go just by appearance, he's...
[03:33] Soga
    Don't be swayed! What is wrong with me?!
[03:36] Matsuri
    Oh, right, Senpai?
[03:39] Soga
    What is it?
[03:40] Matsuri
    An Ikon showed up at Korogi, too.
[03:43] Soga
    What?
[03:45] Matsuri
    Ikon are urban ayakashi that develop from
    the negative residual thoughts of humans.
[03:51] Matsuri
    Too many of them are popping up
    out here in the countryside.
[03:54] Matsuri
    You think something's causing it?
[03:57] Soga
    It's a modern type of ayakashi,
    so we don't have much data on it.
[04:03] Soga
    What we do know is...
[04:05] Soga
    Unlike other ayakashi of old,
    Ikon wander without shape.
[04:09] Soga
    Eventually, they grow and mutate into
    something that has human elements.
[04:14] Soga
    You could say that they're
    the larvae of malicious ayakashi.
[04:19] Yayoi
    So that senpai ran those weirdos off?
[04:23] Lucy
    From what I can tell looking at him,
[04:25] Lucy
    he must be half-shark,
    half-human... A shark humanoid!
[04:29] Lucy
    How cool.
[04:30] Suzu
    Lu, that doesn't sound like a compliment.
[04:33] Yayoi
    He looks like a hardass. He might
    be a good match for Matsuri.
[04:36] Yayoi
    Right, Suzu?
[04:37] Suzu
    What? No way! That's a colossal nope!
[04:40] Yayoi
    Why?
[04:42] Yayoi
    We never said that nobody in
    Kachofugetsu could have a boyfriend!
[04:46] Yayoi
    It's a good thing! We should be supportive!
[04:48] Suzu
    Urk... I know, but...
[04:51] Yayoi
    What do you think, Lu?
[04:52] Lucy
    Oh...
SIGN    Mika-chan
    Why are there so many pics of
    UFO sightings around Omiko City?
    That's awesome! I wanna go see!
[04:54] Lucy
    I don't care either way.

[04:58] Lucy
    Whoa...
[05:03] Shirogane
    I came here because
    I sensed something unusual,
[05:08] Shirogane
    but there's no way that
    thing's related to him.
[05:13] Shirogane
    Now that I can relax,
    I'm suddenly really hungry.
[05:16] Matsuri
    Hey.
[05:17] Suzu
    Shirogane?
[05:19] Matsuri
    I was wondering why you weren't at school.
[05:21] Matsuri
    What are you doing here?
    You'd better not be up to any mischief.
[05:25] Shirogane
    Hmph! Mind your own business!
[05:27] Shirogane
    Did you come to capture that, Matsuri?
[05:31] Matsuri
    The app had it bang-on!
[05:33] Matsuri
    Now I can test out my newly fixed ninja gear!
[05:37] Matsuri
    Suit up!
[05:38] Matsuri
    Okay, gonna capture that thing in a jiffy!

[05:45] Matsuri
    Hey, get back here!
[05:48] Lucy
    Yun, yun, yun, yun, yun!
[05:52] Lucy
    I know that there must be many intelligent
    lifeforms that exist in the universe.
[05:59] Lucy
    And if their technology is advanced
    enough to come to Earth,
[06:04] Lucy
    then it's probably
    indistinguishable from magic.
[06:07] Lucy
    If they can read my mind,
    filled with acceptance and understanding,
[06:11] Lucy
    the aliens will surely appear before me.
[06:16] Lucy
    Oh, UFO, UFO.
[06:18] Lucy
    I'm over here.
[06:21] Lucy
    Yun, yun, yun, yun, yun!
[06:27] Matsuri
    I said, get back here!
[06:28] Matsuri
    Why, you... Take that!
[06:31] Suzu
    What kind of ayakashi is that?
[06:32] Shirogane
    It's a Sohachibon.
[06:36] Suzu
    A Sohachibon?
[06:38] Shirogane
    The tsukumogami of a Buddhist cymbal.
[06:40] Shirogane
    It's visible to humans, and it likes
    flying around them to scare them.
[06:48] Suzu
    I see.
[06:49] Suzu
    We can't have it causing too much mischief.
[06:52] Suzu
    We're near a road, so we don't want some
    driver to be distracted and get into a wreck.
[06:57] Shirogane
    Well, we can leave the rest to him.
[07:00] Shirogane
    Now give me some Suzu Dango. I'm hungry!
[07:02] Suzu
    What? No, you just had some.
[07:06] Shirogane
    I was lost in thought!
    I don't feel like I had any!
[07:09] Shirogane
    Gimme!
[07:11] Suzu
    No. You'll get fat.
[07:13] Shirogane
    Says the girl stuffing her face!
[07:16] Suzu
    Don't mind me.
[07:19] Suzu
    It's just my ayakashi medium powers at work.
[07:23] Shirogane
    Then I'll just have to make you!
[07:27] Suzu
    Sheesh!
[07:28] Suzu
    All this smoke! What are you
    trying to transform into?
[07:35] Shiroganematsuri
    Okay, Suzu. Feed me some Suzu Dango.
[07:38] Suzu
    This is colossally not fair!
[07:40] Suzu
    Don't transform into guy Matsuri!
[07:42] Suzu
    Not that it's gonna work on me!
[07:45] Shiroganematsuri
    Really?
[07:47] Suzu
    Shoot.
[07:48] Suzu
    I haven't seen Matsuri's
    true form in a while.
[07:51] Suzu
    I know it's just Shirogane,
    but I can't help myself!
[07:56] Shirogane
    This method goes against my principles,
    but she's left me no choice.
[08:01] Shiroganematsuri
    Come on.
[08:04] Shiroganematsuri
    Please, Suzu? I need your dango...
[08:08] Suzu
    No whispering!
[08:11] Shiroganematsuri
    Suzu Dango.
[08:12] Suzu
    Not in my ear!
[08:14] Suzu
    F-Fine, I get it!
[08:16] Suzu
    Go eat them over there!
[08:19] Shirogane
    My superior strategy worked!
[08:23] Lucy
    Yun, yun, yun, yun.
[08:26] Lucy
    Yun?
[08:36] Shiroganematsuri
    They're always good,
    but today's are exceptional.
[08:40] Shiroganematsuri
    I can't stop eating them!
[08:42] Lucy
    Th-This boy!
[08:45] Lucy
    He's the one who saved me
    in my dream back then.
[08:50] Lucy
    He's real?
[08:53] Lucy
    He heeded my call and warped here?
[08:56] Lucy
    So he's an alien?
[08:59] Lucy
    I thought he was dressed like a ninja,
[09:01] Lucy
    but it must be a space suit!
[09:06] Lucy
    H-Hello. I'm an Earthling.
[09:09] Shiroganematsuri
    Oh, if it isn't Lucy.
[09:12] Lucy
    He knows me?
[09:14] Lucy
    Wait, he understands Japanese?
[09:17] Lucy
    I see. He's done his research on Earth.
[09:21] Lucy
    Was that dream a telepathic message
    to announce his existence and goodwill?
[09:27] Lucy
    He appeared before me, the only
    human to receive that message.
[09:32] Lucy
    It all makes sense now!
[09:40] Shirogane
    Is it bad that she saw me here?
[09:43] Shirogane
    It's fine. Surely she's never interacted
    with male Matsuri before.
[09:47] Shirogane
    I'll just wing it.
[09:49] Lucy
    So, what's your name?
[09:51] Shiroganematsuri
    Shiro...
[09:52] Shirogane
    ...gane would be a bad idea.
[09:56] Shiroganematsuri
    ...matsu.
[09:57] Shirogane
    ...ri would be a bad idea, too.
[09:59] Lucy
    Ooh, Shiromatsu!
[10:01] Lucy
    You sound like that Oso guy's
    long-lost brother!
[10:03] Shirogane
    Yeah, that'll do.
[10:06] Lucy
    How old are you?
[10:07] Shiromatsu
    Around 400, I think?
[10:09] Lucy
    Super longevity!
[10:11] Lucy
    And where are you from?
[10:12] Shiromatsu
    Somewhere in Edo. I forget.
[10:14] Lucy
    Ooh, Inedo Galaxy!
[10:17] Lucy
    Your home planet is top secret, huh?
[10:20] Lucy
    I see, I see.
[10:22] Shirogane
    Gulp.
[10:24] Shirogane
    What's this?
[10:26] Shirogane
    My head's feeling woozy...
[10:28] Shirogane
    No, my entire body's floating.
[10:31] Shirogane
    What is this feeling?
[10:34] Matsuri
    All right!
[10:35] Matsuri
    Finally caught you!
[10:37] Suzu
    Good job, Matsuri.
[10:39] Matsuri
    Yeesh, you're such a handful.
[10:42] Suzu
    Keep your mischievous
    tendencies in check, okay?
[10:45] Matsuri
    Should I hit it with the ritual of dread?
[10:48] Suzu
    I think you scared it plenty
    chasing it around like that already.
[10:52] Matsuri
    I guess.
[10:57] Matsuri
    Why am I there with Lu?!
[10:59] Suzu
    What's Shirogane doing there?!
[11:01] Matsuri
    Shirogane?!
[11:02] Suzu
    Y-Yup...
[11:03] Matsuri
    What'd he transform into me for?
[11:07] Suzu
    Huh?
[11:08] Suzu
    He's acting strange.
[11:10] Matsuri
    He's grinning ear-to-ear.
[11:14] Suzu
    I knew it!
[11:15] Suzu
    The dango I gave him...
[11:18] Suzu
    It's the batch I tried
    putting some catnip in!
[11:20] Matsuri
    Catnip?!
[11:22] Suzu
    I was worried he might get
    bored of the same flavor,
[11:25] Suzu
    so I thought I could slowly up the dose...
[11:27] Matsuri
    So that's why he looks like he's sloshed.
[11:31] Lucy
    Okay, so, Shiromatsu...
[11:34] Lucy
    I have an important question.
[11:39] Lucy
    Why have you come to Earth?
[11:46] Lucy
    Uh...
[11:47] Shiromatsu
    I-Isn't it obvious?
[11:50] Lucy
    Huh?
[11:52] Shiromatsu
    It's because I want you!
[11:57] Matsuri
    Wh-Wh-Wh-What?!
[12:00] Suzu
    Why are you hitting on Lu, Matsuri?!
[12:03] Matsuri
    It's not me! It's drunk Shirogane!
[12:04] Suzu
    You colossal idiot!
[12:10] Matsuri
    The Sohachibon!
[12:12] Shiromatsu
    You're mine!
SIGN    The L Files
[12:21] Lucy
    Shiromatsu?
[12:25] Lucy
    H-He disappeared.
[12:32] Shiromatsu
    It's because I want you!
[12:39] Lucy
    Shiromatsu-sama...
[12:43] Yayoi
    No way! You've found someone you like?!
[12:46] Yayoi
    Who is it?!
[12:47] Lucy
    Shiromatsu-sama, from Inedo Galaxy.
[12:50] Yayoi
    Wha?
[12:51] Lucy
    He might take me away in his UFO someday!
[12:55] Yayoi
    Oh, it's just the usual.
[12:58] Matsuri
    Why, you...
[13:00] Matsuri
    Why'd you turn me into some bizarre dude?!
[13:04] Shirogane
    It's not my fault, I say!
[13:06] Matsuri
    It is for transforming into me!
[13:10] Suzu
    I'm glad I got to see boy
    Matsuri after so long.
[13:14] Suzu
    He was so handsome!
[13:18] Suzu
    Bye, Matsuri.
[13:19] Matsuri
    See ya.
[13:21] Suzu
    Huh? Shirogane?
[13:22] Matsuri
    You're not coming home?
[13:24] Shirogane
    I'm going for a stroll.
[13:27] Matsuri
    Well, that's fine.
[13:30] Matsuri
    Come back soon, and don't
    get up to any mischief.
[13:32] Shirogane
    Hmph!
[13:33] Shirogane
    I lost myself to the Suzu Dango yesterday,
[13:36] Shirogane
    but I should really stay alert.
[13:41] Matsuri
    Something's off with Shirogane...
[13:44] Matsuri
    Is he after the God-Sealing Scroll again?
[13:47] Reo
    Welcome back, Matsuri-kun.

    This refined green tea smells great!
[14:02] Reo
    Sensational!
[14:03] Matsuri
    Gramps is picky with his tea.
[14:06] Reo
    Is your grandfather out?
[14:08] Matsuri
    At a neighborhood meeting.
[14:11] Matsuri
    So, what's up? What brings you to my place?
[14:16] Reo
    How does your new ninja gear feel to use?
[14:20] Matsuri
    Oh, I tried it out yesterday,
[14:23] Matsuri
    but I didn't get the chance
    to check out its new features.
[14:27] Matsuri
    But it fit perfectly.
[14:29] Reo
    Is that so? If anything about it
    ever bothers you, let me know.
[14:34] Matsuri
    Sure.
[14:35] Matsuri
    But that's not what you
    came here for, is it?
[14:40] Reo
    You can tell?
[14:42] Reo
    Actually...
[14:44] Reo
    I want to ask you something.
[14:46] Matsuri
    What?
[14:47] Reo
    Matsuri-kun,
[14:49] Reo
    do you want to go back to being a boy?
[14:53] Reo
    Remember what you said yesterday, when you
    came to return the ayakashi-catching net?

[14:59] (Flashback) Matsuri
    Hey, Reo.
[15:01] (Flashback) Matsuri
    You don't have any tools that would
    turn me back into a guy, do you?
[15:05] (Flashback) Reo
    Exorcist ninja tools are mainly
    used for support in battles,
[15:08] (Flashback) Reo
    so I'm afraid not.
[15:10] (Flashback) Matsuri
    Y-Yeah, figures.
[15:15] Matsuri
    It must've slipped out because
    I saw my male form again.
[15:20] Reo
    You see,
[15:21] Reo
    I'd thought that being a girl
    didn't bother you that much.
[15:25] Matsuri
    That's what I thought at first, too.
[15:28] Matsuri
    But the longer it goes on,
[15:29] Matsuri
    all sorts of things keep getting
    more and more complicated.
[15:34] Matsuri
    Besides, it looks like Suzu wants me
    to go back to being a boy.

    Tee-hee-hee.

    Don't "tee-hee-hee" me!

    Haven't you heard?
[16:34] Reo
    The Korogi clan handle all sorts
    of exorcist ninja tools nowadays,
[16:38] Reo
    but we originally dealt with incense.
[16:40] Reo
    We were a clan of exorcists
    who utilized scents as an exorcist tool.
[16:45] Reo
    That's why I happen to have
    a real fetish for scents.
[16:50] Reo
    I can obtain information by analyzing scents,
    be they human or ayakashi.
[16:55] Matsuri
    Seriously?
[17:00] Shirogane
    Hmm... I don't sense anything today.
[17:04] Suzu
    Oh, Shirogane.
[17:06] Suzu
    On your stroll still?
[17:08] Shirogane
    What are you doing here?
[17:12] Suzu
    We got assigned some
    difficult homework today,
[17:14] Suzu
    so I thought we could go over it together.
[17:16] Shirogane
    So obvious.
[17:17] Shirogane
    You just want an excuse
    to go to Matsuri's place.
[17:20] Suzu
    Not true!
[17:22] Matsuri
    H-Hey! Not there!
[17:26] Matsuri
    N-No! I said, no!
[17:29] Matsuri
    Wait, that's too...
[17:35] Reo
    It's okay.
[17:36] Reo
    Your scent is totally my type.
[17:39] Matsuri
    Th-That's not the problem.

    This is really embarrassing.

    She's a bona fide pervert!

    Well, I can't very well deny
    that I'm a pervert.
[18:02] Reo
    I've always wanted to just take a deep whiff.
[18:05] Reo
    Super sensational!
[18:07] Matsuri
    Did you come over just to smell me?!
[18:11] Reo
    Oh, no! This is to prepare for the exorcism!
[18:15] Reo
    I had to smell your
    entire body to confirm it.
[18:19] Matsuri
    Huh?
[18:20] Reo
    It's very faint, but it's
    mixed in with your scent.
[18:25] Reo
    The scent of Secret Art:
    Gender Swap Awakened!
[18:32] Reo
    It's quite a complicated scent,

[18:50] Reo
    Since ancient times, incense has been used
    to repel evil and exorcise misfortune.
[18:55] Reo
    Upgrading that effect,
[18:57] Reo
    we make a blend of scents that
    negates the power of ayakashi.
[19:01] Reo
    That is... exorcising incense!
[19:09] Reo
    Exorcise, scent.
[19:12] Reo
    Scent, exorcise.
[19:14] Reo
    Exorcise, scent.
[19:16] Reo
    Scent, exorcise.
[19:19] Reo
    Exorcise, scent.
[19:21] Reo
    Scent, exorcise!
[19:24] Shirogane
    Ew! This reeks!
[19:28] Suzu
    The incense smells so good.
[19:31] Matsuri
    Ah, it's like...
[19:35] Matsuri
    The scent's seeping into my body.
[19:45] Matsuri
    Oh?
[19:49] Matsuri
    Whoa!
[19:52] Reo
    It works!
[19:54] Suzu
    No way!
[19:55] Suzu
    Is the spell gonna be lifted?
[19:58] Shirogane
    It reeks!
[20:00] Shirogane
    Reeks, I tell you! Ew!
[20:05] Matsuri
    Hmm...
[20:07] Matsuri
    No changes down here.
[20:09] Matsuri
    So I guess that's as far as we go.
[20:10] Reo
    Aww, it failed.
[20:12] Shirogane
    Hmph! It's my superior secret art!
[20:15] Shirogane
    Mere scents cannot dispel it!
[20:18] Reo
    Oh?
[20:19] Reo
    I'd say we made good progress
    for a first attempt.
[20:22] Reo
    There's plenty of room for improvement!
[20:24] Suzu
    Yeah.
[20:26] Suzu
    When I tried, there weren't
    any visible changes.
[20:30] Reo
    All right! I'm going to
    research this all the way!
[20:34] Reo
    It's my job as your partner
    to resolve your issues!
[20:39] Suzu
    This girl, Korogi Reo-chan...
[20:44] Reo
    Your bond as childhood friends
    is longstanding and strong.
[20:48] Reo
    It's plain as day that
    I don't stand a chance just yet.
[20:53] Reo
    But...
[20:55] Reo
    That room for improvement
    is what I love most of all, Suzu-san!
[21:01] Suzu
    She's trouble! I gotta stay on high alert!
[21:05] Matsuri
    That's my Reo!
[21:07] Matsuri
    I can always count on your artisan spirit!
[21:13] Reo
    My, oh, my!
[21:14] Matsuri
    Now they're bigger than before!
[21:16] Reo
    The third law of physics?
[21:18] Suzu
    H-Hey...
[21:19] Suzu
    What are you gonna do about this?!
[21:21] Reo
    Hey, this Matsuri-kun is sensational, too!
[21:26] Suzu
    More like sensationalized!

    after a good night's sleep.
[23:13] Shirogane
    I still can't sense anything.
[23:17] Shirogane
    If he were nearby, I would
    be able to feel his presence.
[23:23] Shirogane
    But perhaps...
[23:24] Shirogane
    He has grown so much
    that he can conceal it now?
