[00:05] Suzu
    Shirogane...
[00:07] Shirogane
    Hang on tight, Suzu.
[00:12] Suzu
    The seal... was undone.
[00:17] Suzu
    Everything that tied us together...
[00:21] Suzu
    It's all gone.
[00:27] Narrator
    Ayakashi.
[00:29] Narrator
    Strange beasts, invisible to man.
[00:34] Narrator
    To destroy the fiendish ayakashi
    that bare their fangs at humans,
[00:37] Narrator
    there are those who have fought
    in the shadows since time immemorial.
[00:42] Narrator
    They are known as...
[00:49] Narrator
    exorcist ninjas!
[02:23] Sosuke
    Stealing my prey? That's not nice.
SIGN    Episode 11: "The Spirit of Harmony"
[02:25] Sosuke
    Having watched Kazamaki Matsuri die,
    her haku is now...
[02:29] Sosuke
    the most delicious it will ever be.
[02:33] Sosuke
    Give her back, Shirogane.
[02:36] Shirogane
    His ability, Engulfing Shadow,
    is extremely dangerous.
[02:41] Shirogane
    He summons a mouth that devours
    haku within its vicinity.
[02:46] (Flashback) Sosuke
    I don't think I like your taste too much.
[02:54] Shirogane
    An ayakashi's body isn't
    made of flesh and blood.
[02:57] Shirogane
    That mouth can directly drain it away.
[02:59] Shirogane
    And until it appears,
[03:01] Shirogane
    neither its scent nor presence are detectable.
[03:05] Shirogane
    In that case...
[03:07] Shirogane
    I'll attack from a distance!
[03:10] Shirogane
    Silver Ayakashi Needles!
[03:12] Sosuke
    Well...
[03:13] Sosuke
    I can understand how you feel.
[03:16] Sosuke
    You want to say she was
    your prey first, right?
[03:20] Sosuke
    You disappeared after our fight
    and sought the ayakashi medium.
[03:25] Sosuke
    You needed a large amount of haku
    to counter my Engulfing Shadow, didn't you?
[03:32] Suzu
    So that's why he came to me.
[03:34] Shirogane
    Blah, blah! Enough pointless talk!
[03:39] Shirogane
    Ayakashi Art: Purple Hellfire!
SIGN    Ayakashi Art: Purple Hellfire
[03:49] Sosuke
    It's no use.
[03:51] Sosuke
    Ayakashi arts are fueled by haku.
    That's just more food for me.
[03:56] Sosuke
    You've mastered countless ayakashi arts,
[04:00] Sosuke
    but that makes me your natural enemy.
[04:02] Shirogane
    So he does feed off ayakashi arts.
[04:06] Shirogane
    Only direct physical attacks will work.
[04:10] Shirogane
    But it's too risky to fight him
    at close range with Suzu in tow.
[04:15] Suzu
    Forget it, Shirogane.
[04:19] Suzu
    Just eat me.
[04:20] Suzu
    If that's what it takes for you
    to survive, then I'm fine with it.
[04:26] Shirogane
    You fool!
[04:28] Shirogane
    As soon as Matsuri dies, you start whining?
[04:32] Shirogane
    He gave his life to protect yours,
[04:34] Shirogane
    and you would throw it away just like that?!
[04:39] Sosuke
    What's this?
[04:41] Sosuke
    Has the king of ayakashi
    grown attached to a human?
[04:48] Sosuke
    There!
[04:50] Sosuke
    Caught you distracted!
[04:52] Shirogane
    His mouth has this much range?
[04:59] Suzu
    Shirogane!
[05:02] Shirogane
    I hate humans.
[05:05] Shirogane
    They fear and persecute you,
[05:09] Shirogane
    and then worship and revere you,
[05:13] Shirogane
    only to forget and abandon you.
[05:23] Shirogane
    I will never have anything to do
    with these creatures anymore.
[05:27] Shirogane
    Time and time again I tell myself that,
[05:31] Shirogane
    but then I get close to them again,
[05:34] Shirogane
    and I start to think they're not so bad.
[05:41] Shirogane
    And that's why...
[05:44] Shirogane
    I hate them.
[05:49] Sosuke
    You cut a pathetic figure, Shirogane.
[05:51] Sosuke
    In the end, you're an ayakashi
    of an age gone by.
[05:55] Sosuke
    As a parting gift,
[05:57] Sosuke
    I'll devour you completely so you
    don't disgrace yourself any further.
[06:08] Sosuke
    What was that?
[06:11] Suzu
    Get away from Shirogane, Hinojiki-kun!
[06:15] (Flashback) Garaku
    While you're at it, it might be a good idea
    to stock up on folded origami.
[06:20] (Flashback) Garaku
    Might come in handy in emergencies
    if you fuel it with your haku.
[06:25] Sosuke
    The ayakashi medium can even pull
    off these ayakashi arts, huh?
[06:31] Sosuke
    My arm is numb.
[06:38] Sosuke
    She's only ordering them to distract me?
[06:41] Sosuke
    Why not attack?
[06:43] Suzu
    Shirogane!
[06:45] Sosuke
    She's too nice.
[06:46] Suzu
    Hang in there!
[06:48] Shirogane
    You fool, run away already!
[06:50] Suzu
    It's fine! I can heal ayakashi injuries!
[06:53] Shirogane
    You've barely learned to use your powers.
    As if you could heal the king of ayakashi!
[06:59] Suzu
    Yeah, well, I'm not abandoning you
    without even trying!
[07:04] Sosuke
    Sit tight and wallow
    in your despair, Kanade-san.
[07:08] Sosuke
    Otherwise, that delicious haku
    of yours is going to go bad.
[07:13] Shirogane
    Suzu!
[07:18] Sosuke
    Bon appétit.
[07:21] Suzu
    Matsuri!
[07:25] Sosuke
    Wind?!
[07:29] Sosuke
    Impossible.
[07:30] Sosuke
    How is this possible? Why are you still...
[07:35] Sosuke
    I know I devoured nearly
    all of his haku, his life!
[07:39] Sosuke
    Your body definitely died!
[07:47] Sosuke
    How are you alive, Kazamaki Matsuri?
[07:52] Suzu
    Matsuri...
[07:59] Matsuri
    Time to end this,
[08:00] Matsuri
    Jinyo!
[08:13] Matsuri
    Q-Quit clinging to me, Suzu!
[08:16] Suzu
    I thought you were dead!
[08:18] Suzu
    Seriously, how?
[08:20] Suzu
    And you're a boy again!
[08:22] Matsuri
    Oh, I don't really get it, either.
[08:25] Matsuri
    Maybe the spell was undone?
[08:27] Shirogane
    No, the secret art wasn't lifted.
[08:30] Shirogane
    But you were saved because you were female.
[08:34] Suzu
    What do you mean?
[08:36] Shirogane
    It's how Gender Swap Awakened works.
[08:42] Shirogane
    The gender swap mark on your stomach
[08:44] Shirogane
    generates the haku to
    transform you into a girl
[08:47] Shirogane
    which then envelops your entire body.
[08:50] Shirogane
    Because Hinojiki ate almost all of it,
    the transformation was temporarily undone,
[08:55] Shirogane
    and Matsuri's own haku came back.
[09:00] Matsuri
    So becoming a girl gave me an extra continue?
[09:05] Shirogane
    Don't put the king of ayakashi's secret art
    on the same level as a video game!
[09:09] Sosuke
    I see.
[09:12] Sosuke
    So that's why the haku tasted
    so much like Shirogane's.
[09:16] Sosuke
    Very well.
[09:21] Suzu
    Shirogane!
[09:24] Matsuri
    Why, you!
[09:26] Sosuke
    It's not my cup of tea, but it's an immense
    amount of haku all the same.
[09:31] Sosuke
    Oh?
[09:32] Sosuke
    You're still alive?
[09:35] Shirogane
    Meowie...
[09:37] Sosuke
    How stubborn.
[09:41] Matsuri
    Wind Kunai!
[09:47] Matsuri
    He's unhurt?
[09:48] Sosuke
    You can't destroy me.
[09:50] Sosuke
    Now that I've consumed Shirogane's haku,
[09:53] Sosuke
    my body is a mass of dense ayakashi energy.
[09:56] Shirogane
    He's right.
[09:58] Shirogane
    Take Suzu and get out of here.
[10:02] Shirogane
    He's not an enemy you can defeat.
[10:06] Shirogane
    Run! Now!
[10:11] Matsuri
    An exorcist ninja must turn
    even losses into gains.
[10:14] Matsuri
    And I've lost to him enough.
[10:17] Matsuri
    All that's left is to exorcise him.
[10:19] Shirogane
    Wha?!
[10:21] Matsuri
    Have faith in me, Suzu.
[10:26] Suzu
    Got it.
[10:28] Shirogane
    You... What are you...
[10:30] Shirogane
    Hey, are you two serious?
[10:34] Sosuke
    A beautiful relationship built on trust.
[10:37] Sosuke
    But this sliver of hope will soon be
    engulfed by even deeper despair.
[10:42] Sosuke
    Killing Kazamaki Matsuri now
    will make her haku even more delicious.
[10:49] Matsuri
    When I came to,
[10:52] Matsuri
    I saw Suzu infuse these
    with her haku to control them.
[10:55] Matsuri
    Her haku should only be food for you.
[10:59] Matsuri
    But instead of eating them,
    you destroyed them with your hands.
[11:04] Matsuri
    A mouth that devours haku.
[11:06] Matsuri
    But read between the lines,
[11:08] Matsuri
    and it becomes a mouth
    that can only eat haku.
[11:12] Matsuri
    So if I force feed you my wind,
    you might get a tummy ache, huh?
[11:18] Sosuke
    Your logic is ridiculous!
[11:22] Sosuke
    As far as my eyes can see,
[11:24] Sosuke
    I can materialize my Engulfing Shadow!
[11:26] Sosuke
    It can't be blocked or evaded...
[11:29] Sosuke
    It's an invincible ability!
[11:31] Matsuri
    Nah.
[11:33] Matsuri
    There's no way it's invincible.
[11:35] Matsuri
    If it was, he wouldn't need
    to fight like this!
[11:39] Matsuri
    He distracts his foes
    with hand-to-hand combat
[11:42] Matsuri
    and attacks their blind spot with his mouth.
[11:49] Matsuri
    What this fighting style means is...
[11:52] Sosuke
    How long are you going
    to keep running around?
[11:59] Suzu
    Matsuri!
[12:07] Sosuke
    Not bad.
[12:09] Matsuri
    Now I know for sure.
[12:12] Matsuri
    While Engulfing Shadow
    may be your greatest weapon,
[12:16] Matsuri
    it's also a major weak point.
[12:19] Sosuke
    He figured it out?
[12:21] Sosuke
    Yeah, his techniques are formed
    from kon, spiritual energy.
[12:25] Sosuke
    And to me, who feeds off haku, it's poison.
[12:30] Sosuke
    But still...
[12:31] Matsuri
    Remember! Remember what
    Gramps said back then!
[12:40] (Flashback) Matsuri
    This is impossible, Gramps!
[12:41] (Flashback) Matsuri
    There's no way I can keep the candle
    from blowing out in this storm!
[12:45] (Flashback) Matsuri
    Wait, what?
[12:47] (Flashback) Matsuri
    What's happening to the wind around you?
[12:49] (Flashback) Seigen
    Listen, Matsuri.
[12:51] (Flashback) Seigen
    Kon generated with the desire to defeat
    your enemy turns the wind into a weapon.
[12:59] (Flashback) Seigen
    But that's not all there is
    to Kazamaki-style arts.
[13:04] (Flashback) Seigen
    With a gentle, peaceful,
[13:06] (Flashback) Seigen
    and calm spirit, we create
    harmony with the wind.
[13:12] Matsuri
    Back then, I couldn't make
    heads nor tails of it.
[13:15] Matsuri
    Because defeating ayakashi to protect Suzu
[13:19] Matsuri
    was all I cared about.
[13:27] Suzu
    If I can become true friends with
    Shirogane, it'll solve everything.
[13:33] Matsuri
    I thought for sure there was
    no way that was ever happening,
[13:36] Matsuri
    but Suzu and Shirogane
    showed me that it could.
[13:40] Matsuri
    It's not all about attacking.
[13:43] Matsuri
    Create harmony with the wind,
    and become one with it.

    Or has even your wind abandoned you?
[14:11] Sosuke
    In that case...

    Matsuri!
[14:17] Sosuke
    I never said there was
    only one Engulfing Shadow!
[14:21] Matsuri
    You're full of lies.

    any movements in the air around you...?
[14:55] Matsuri
    I told you right at the start...
[14:58] Matsuri
    that I'd open up a windhole in your stomach.
[15:03] Sosuke
    I-I can't...
[15:05] Sosuke
    I can't maintain my form, my existence...
[15:09] Sosuke
    I took too much damage!
[15:12] Sosuke
    Jinyo are supposed to have surpassed
    both humans and ayakashi.
[15:20] Sosuke
    I must eat... the ultimate meal...
    no matter what...
[15:26] Sosuke
    Eat you...
[15:30] Sosuke
    Why?
[15:31] Sosuke
    Why do you look so sad?
[15:34] Sosuke
    Why are you crying?
[15:38] Sosuke
    That just...
[15:41] Sosuke
    makes me lose my appetite,
[15:44] Sosuke
    Kanade-san.
[15:50] Shirogane
    This girl really does see things
    from an ayakashi's point of view.
[15:56] Matsuri
    Are you okay, Suzu?
[16:03] Matsuri
    H-Hey...
[16:06] Suzu
    Yup.
[16:08] Suzu
    I feel bad for him.
[16:11] Suzu
    And all the ayakashi he ate.
[16:14] Matsuri
    Suzu...
[16:15] Suzu
    Sorry. I'm fine now.
[16:19] Suzu
    These are tears of joy because you're alive!
[16:28] Matsuri
    Huh?
[16:30] Soga
    I took care of all the scrubs!
[16:32] Soga
    I'm coming to help, Kazamaki!
[16:38] Ponosuke
    What? Sir Matsuri is a poy again.
[16:42] Ponosuke
    And they're having a moment...
[16:45] Soga
    We're leaving, Ponosuke.
[16:48] Ponosuke
    Master?
[16:50] Soga
    My job is done.
[16:52] Soga
    Isn't it great that Kanade Suzu is safe?
[16:56] Ponosuke
    Master!
[16:58] Soga
    So what...
[16:59] Soga
    What is this pouring out of my eyes?
[17:02] Ponosuke
    Master!
[17:06] Matsuri
    Senpai's the man.
[17:08] Matsuri
    He does a perfect job
    and leaves without a word.
[17:13] Shirogane
    Ps!
[17:15] Shirogane
    Psps!
[17:16] Shirogane
    This is no time to be
    getting all clingy, you brats!
[17:21] Shirogane
    Just so you know, Gender Swap Awakened's
    effect was only devoured temporarily.
[17:27] Shirogane
    You're still a far cry away
    from a happy ending!
[17:30] Suzu
    Is Matsuri gonna turn into a girl again?
[17:32] Shirogane
    Of course!
[17:34] Shirogane
    Dispelling that secret art
[17:36] Shirogane
    requires the exact same ayakashi
    energy that was used to cast it.
[17:40] Shirogane
    But now that I've lost my powers,
    it will remain in effect forever!
[17:46] Shirogane
    Goodbye, awesome-looking me...
[17:50] Shirogane
    The spell will likely be back
    in effect around sunset.
[17:55] Suzu
    No...
[18:00] Matsuri
    Suzu. Can you come with me for a bit?
[18:05] Matsuri
    I want to do something
    I can only do as a guy.
[18:15] Suzu
    J-Just like that?
[18:17] Suzu
    And in the woods?!
[18:19] Suzu
    I-It's still light out...
[18:21] Suzu
    I-I'm not prepared for this!
[18:28] Suzu
    He started undressing already!
[18:29] Suzu
    Eek! This is colossally embarrassing...
[18:34] Suzu
    but I'm ready to take it all in!
[18:39] Matsuri
    Doing it in just a fundoshi
    helps me focus best...
[18:43] Matsuri
    at waterfall training!
[18:45] Suzu
    Oh. That so?
[18:47] Shirogane
    Why'd you take off your jacket, Suzu?
[18:50] Suzu
    I was feeling hot.
[18:52] Suzu
    Why does he have to meditate
    under a waterfall now*?
[18:55] Suzu
    I mean, he does look sexy in his fundoshi...
[18:58] Shirogane
    Her life was just in danger,
    but she never changes.
[19:02] Shirogane
    Well, it is in their nature*
    to switch mindsets quickly.
[19:07] Shirogane
    You know...
[19:09] Shirogane
    Suzu might be able to.
[19:13] Matsuri
    I'm so glad the waterfall
    I used for training was nearby.
[19:17] Matsuri
    I need to cool my head.
[19:20] Matsuri
    I never thought I'd feel that way.
[19:25] Matsuri
    Has Suzu always been shorter than me?
[19:31] Matsuri
    What is this? Why do I suddenly feel like...
[19:35] Matsuri
    I want to kiss Suzu.
[19:40] Matsuri
    I wouldn't have had these thoughts before.
[19:43] Matsuri
    That was never what she meant to me.
[19:48] Matsuri
    She was something more special.
[19:51] Matsuri
    But as a girl,
[19:53] Matsuri
    I spent more time much
    closer to her than before.
[19:57] Matsuri
    That's made me see her
    as something more intimate...
[20:01] Matsuri
    I can see her as Suzu, as a girl.
[20:05] Suzu
    Matsuri!
[20:07] Matsuri
    Whoa! What are you doing
    all the way over here?!
[20:10] Suzu
    Well, I kept calling you,
    but you didn't hear me.
[20:15] Matsuri
    I-I can see her under...
[20:18] Suzu
    You see, there's something
    I want to say to you
[20:22] Suzu
    as you are right now.
[20:24] Matsuri
    H-Huh?
[20:27] Matsuri
    What?
[20:29] Suzu
    Thanks for coming to rescue me today. But...
[20:33] Suzu
    I don't want to be
    the damsel in distress forever.
[20:39] Suzu
    I want to learn more about the ayakashi
[20:42] Suzu
    and how to use my ayakashi medium
    powers to their fullest.
[20:47] Suzu
    And one day, I'll turn you back into a boy.
[20:51] Suzu
    It's my turn to help you now!
[20:56] Matsuri
    If Suzu grows into her powers
    as an ayakashi medium,
[21:01] Matsuri
    she'll go somewhere far away
    beyond my reach...
[21:04] Matsuri
    That's how I used to feel.
[21:06] Matsuri
    But now, I'm not as worried.
[21:09] Matsuri
    Because I see her for the girl she is.
[21:13] Matsuri
    Yeah, I'm counting on you.
[21:15] Matsuri
    But on days like today,
    I'm still gonna protect you.
[21:20] Matsuri
    I... I'm in love with Suzu.
[21:24] Suzu
    Thanks, Matsuri.
[21:30] Matsuri
    Man, we gotta say goodbye to
    this look again for a while, huh?
[21:34] Suzu
    Don't worry!
[21:35] Suzu
    I'll definitely turn you back...
[21:48] Shirogane
    What are you talking to?!
[21:51] Suzu
    I-I had water in my eyes!
    I couldn't see anything!
[21:53] Matsuri
    She saw me both ways...
[21:55] Shirogane
    Yeah, right! It was right in front of you!
[21:56] Garaku
    Yep, yep.
[21:58] Suzu
    It was too close to really see!
[21:59] Garaku
    You really can't take
    your eyes off those three.
[22:01] Shirogane
    A likely story!
