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!

[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...

[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.

[06:40] 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!

[08:53] 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.

[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!

[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.

[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.
